"text": "Competitive Advantage When a firm sustains profits that exceed the average for its industry, the firm is said to possess a competitive advantage over its rivals. The goal of much of business strategy is to achieve a sustainable competitive advantage. Michael Porter identified two basic types of competitive advantage:cost advantagedifferentiation advantage A competitive advantage exists when the firm is able to deliver the same benefits as competitors but at a lower cost (cost advantage), or deliver benefits that exceed those of competing products (differentiation advantage). Thus, a competitive advantage enables the firm to create superior value for its customers and superior profits for itself. Cost and differentiation advantages are known as positional advantages since they describe the firm's position in the industry as a leader in either cost or differentiation. A resource-based view emphasizes that a firm utilizes its resources and capabilities to create a competitive advantage that ultimately results in superior value creation. The following diagram combines the resource-based and positioning views to illustrate the concept of competitive advantage: A Model of Competitive Advantage Resources Distinctive Competencies Cost Advantage or Differentiation Advantage Value Creation Capabilities Resources and Capabilities According to the resource-based view, in order to develop a competitive advantage the firm must have resources and capabilities that are superior to those of its competitors. Without this superiority, the competitors simply could replicate what the firm was doing and any advantage quickly would disappear. Resources are the firm-specific assets useful for creating a cost or differentiation advantage and that few competitors can acquire easily. The following are some examples of such resources: Patents and trademarks Proprietary know-how Installed customer base Reputation of the firm Brand equity Capabilities refer to the firm's ability to utilize its resources effectively."

"text": "The four Ps of marketing – product, place, promotion, and price – certainly present many compelling ways to differentiate your firm’s product or services from those of your competition, and it is often where new entrepreneurs start. However, as you plan to get your business off the ground, you need to consider more than just marketing strategies to achieve a sustainable competitive advantage, no matter which market your firm is in. One of the most important aspects of your business is what is known as your HR strategy and your human capital – you, your team, and your employees. Save© Shutterstock.com | Rawpixel.com In this article, we explore, 1) the importance of human capital, 2) HR as a source of competitive advantage, 3) building your team, 4) obtaining business services, 5) subcontracting, and 6) your first (and subsequent) hires. THE IMPORTANCE OF HUMAN CAPITALEffectively and efficiently managing your human capital – moreover, successfully leveraging your human capital to achieve your firm’s strategic business objectives, can help you achieve considerable success in the marketplace. Conversely, failing to do so, through a lack of planning or poor implementation, can result in reduced productivity and profits, and even a poor brand reputation. Many fledgling entrepreneurs often overlook human resources planning in the early stages of their firm’s creation. Many think that human resources begins when a firm grows large enough to have a formal human resource department – an office, a director, a dedicated budget line, and other hallmarks of a large firm. Save However, the truth is that HR strategy starts when a firm is a single person. Whether or not you have a formal written plan for human resources at the start-up stage for how you handle your own entrepreneurial education, compensation, and working hours, HR strategy can set the stage for how you will handle these kinds of decisions when you decide to hire your first employee (s)."

[ INTERNET:http://www.theantidote.co.uk/read/articles/wd8103.html]In 1985, Professor Michael Porter of Harvard Business School introduced the concept of the 'value chain' in his seminal book Competitive Advantage: Creating and Sustaining Superior Performance. Since then, this original thinking has prompted or underpinned a wide variety of management tools and techniques that have become familiar to managers around the world. Here we go back to the original thinking. BACKGROUNDBy 1985, Michael Porter had established himself as one of the foremost thinkers on strategy with his first book, Competitive Strategy, published in 1980. Indeed, Porter's work dominated the strategy debate throughout much of the 1980s. When it was introduced, the concept of the value chain was seen as a powerful tool that would enable strategists to diagnose and enhance competitive advantage. As such, it was intended as a means to take the concepts of competitive strategy put forward in Porter's first book a stage further. Analysis of the value chain allowed the separation of the particular underlying activities that firms employ to design, produce, market and distribute their products or services. Porter contended that it was these underlying activities that contained the seeds of competitive advantage."

The information revolution is sweeping through our economy. No company can escape its effects. Dramatic reductions in the cost of obtaining, processing, and transmitting information are changing the way we do business. Most general managers know that the revolution is under way, and few dispute its importance. As more and more of their time and investment capital is absorbed in information technology and its effects, executives have a growing awareness that the technology can no longer be the exclusive territory of EDP or IS departments. As they see their rivals use information for competitive advantage, these executives recognize the need to become directly involved in the management of the new technology. In the face of rapid change, however, they don’t know how. This article aims to help general managers respond to the challenges of the information revolution. How will advances in information technology affect competition and the sources of competitive advantage? What strategies should a company pursue to exploit the technology?"

The fundamental basis of above average profitability in the long run is sustainable competitive advantage. There are two basic types of competitive advantage a firm can possess: low cost or differentiation. The two basic types of competitive advantage combined with the scope of activities for which a firm seeks to achieve them, lead to three generic strategies for achieving above average performance in an industry: cost leadership, differentiation, and focus. The focus strategy has two variants, cost focus and differentiation focus.1. Cost Leadership In cost leadership, a firm sets out to become the low cost producer in its industry. The sources of cost advantage are varied and depend on the structure of the industry. They may include the pursuit of economies of scale, proprietary technology, preferential access to raw materials and other factors. A low cost producer must find and exploit all sources of cost advantage. if a firm can achieve and sustain overall cost leadership, then it will be an above average performer in its industry, provided it can command prices at or near the industry average.2."

The Advantages of Product Branding Seven Functions of Marketing Branding Characteristics What Is the Difference Between Competitive Intelligence & Marketing Intelligence? Having a marketing orientation means your company emphasizes the needs and wants of customers in all facets of operations. Products and services are developed specifically to meet the needs of your targeted customer products. A marketing orientation is in contrast to a product orientation, which places the emphasis on product engineering and differentiation. Customer-Centric A major advantage with a marketing orientation is that your business is built on addressing the needs of those you serve. If customers want certain features or attributes in your products, you can more quickly learn and react if you have a hand on the pulse of the marketplace. Customer-centric organizations spend significant time researching to get the best understanding of what works and doesn't work with existing offerings.

Five forces analysis looks at five key areas mainly the threat of entry, the power of buyers, the power of suppliers, the threat of substitutes, and competitive rivalry. New Entrants Suppliers Industry competitors and extent of rivalry Buyers Substitutes Introduction The model of the Five Competitive Forces was developed by Michael E. Porter in his book „Competitive Strategy: Techniques for Analysing Industries and Competitors“ in 1980. Since that time the ‘five forces tool’ has become an important method for analysing an organizations industry structure in strategic processes. Porters model is based on the insight that a corporate strategy should meet the opportunities and threats in the organizations external environment. Especially, competitive strategy should based on an understanding of industry structures and the way they change. Porter has identified five competitive forces that shape every industry and every market. These forces determine the intensity of competition and hence the profitability and attractiveness of an industry. The objective of corporate strategy should be to modify these competitive forces in a way that improves the position of the organization. Porters model supports analysis of the driving forces in an industry."

"text": "Meghan Gleason BUS-400 E Period 2 May 2008 Exam 3 Study Questions Chapter 8:1.) Identify and discuss the general ways in which companies can increase their profitability and profit growth through global expansion. The idea of global expansion increases the size of the market a company is addressing, thereby boosting profit growth. It also offers opportunities for reducing the cost structure of the enterprise or adding value through differentiation which again potentially boosts profitability. The general ways a company can increase their profitability and profit growth through global expansion is by expanding the market (leveraging products), realizing cost economies from global volume, realizing location economies, and leveraging the skills of global subsidiaries. Expanding the Market: Leveraging Products is when a company increases their growth rate by taking the goods and/or services that are developed in their home country and sell them internationally. This strategy is used by many companies starting out as establishing themselves as a multinational company. A company recognizes a larger return if they research and choose a location where the indigenous competitors lacks a comparable product. In addition to the actual goods being sold, there is much emphasis on the distinctive competencies of production and marketing because many believe that it is the distinctive competency that is the most valuable aspect of the business model and the overall success of a global company is their ability to transfer and mimic their business model stateside abroad. Realizing Cost Economies from Global Volume is achieved by expanding its sales volume through international expansion therefore realizing cost savings from economies of scale, which in turn, boosts profits."

"text": "\"Porter's Generic Strategies If the primary determinant of a firm's profitability is the attractiveness of the industry in which it operates, an important secondary determinant is its position within that industry. Even though an industry may have below-average profitability, a firm that is optimally positioned can generate superior returns. A firm positions itself by leveraging its strengths. Michael Porter has argued that a firm's strengths ultimately fall into one of two headings: cost advantage and differentiation. By applying these strengths in either a broad or narrow scope, three generic strategies result: cost leadership, differentiation, and focus. These strategies are applied at the business unit level. They are called generic strategies because they are not firm or industry dependent. The following table illustrates Porter's generic strategies: Porter's Generic Strategies Target Scope Advantage Low Cost Product Uniqueness Broad (Industry Wide) Cost Leadership Strategy Differentiation Strategy Narrow (Market Segment) Focus Strategy (low cost) Focus Strategy (differentiation)Cost Leadership Strategy This generic strategy calls for being the low cost producer in an industry for a given level of quality. The firm sells its products either at average industry prices to earn a profit higher than that of rivals, or below the average industry prices to gain market share. In the event of a price war, the firm can maintain some profitability while the competition suffers losses."

It was established in 1867 by Henry Nestle, who was a trained pharmacist. The introduction of the company in the market was through the development of an alternative source of infant nutrition for mothers who were unable to breast feed and named it as Farine Lactee Nestle. He chose his surname 'Nestle' which means a 'little nest' for his company's name logo. In 1904 Nestle introduced its chocolates in the market. But when the availability of raw materials reduced during the First World War, Nestle purchased lot of factories in U. S and increased their production to twice as their pre-war production."

One result may be a decline in sales and lower returns for many firms in the industry. The seriousness of the threat is affected by two factors: barriers to entry and expected reactions from incumbent firms in the industry.a) Barriers to Entry Barriers to entering an industry are present when entry is difficult or when it is too costly and places potential entrants at a competitive disadvantage (relative to firms already competing in the industry). There are seven factors that represent potentially significant entry barriers that can protect profitability by deterring new competitors from entry.b) Economies of Scale Economies of scale refers to the relationship between quantity produced and unit cost: As the quantity of a product produced during a given time period increases, the cost of manufacturing each unit declines.c) Product Differentiation Customers may perceive that products offered by existing firms in the industry are unique as a result of service offered, effective advertising campaigns, or being first to offer a product of service to the market. If customers perceive a product or service as unique, they generally are loyal to that brand. Thus, new entrants may be required to spend a great deal of money over a long period of time to overcome customer loyalty to existing products.d) Capital Requirements Switching costs are the one-time costs customers will incur when buying from a different supplier. These can include such explicit costs as retraining of employees or retooling of equipment as well as the psychological cost of changing relationships."

"text": "What is a Competitive Advantage? Advertisement Competitive Advantage definition Companies with a competitive advantage have an identifiable part of their proposition that allows them to achieve a greater degree of success than similar businesses in their industry. There are many different types of competitive advantage, such as pricing structures, manufacturing capacity, access to contacts and superior customer service. Competitors will attempt to mitigate or neutralise a competitive advantage so the most valued competitive advantages are those that are sustainable and strong enough to withstand external pressures. Competitive advantages are commonly split into comparative and differential advantages. Comparative advantages are financial – a lower cost of manufacture, for example, or their own distribution network. Differential advantages are product-based differences that lead customer perceptions over quality. HR can help create a strong competitive advantage through their personnel management policies – productivity and employee happiness is an advantage that often results in superior customer service, which can help drive sales and repeat customers faster than in companies that do not provide the same service. Strong competitive advantages, particularly those that are innovative, are frequently referred to as unique selling points (USP)."

February 9, 2013 Leigh Dodds 7 Comments As my last post highlighted, I’ve been thinking about how we can find and discover datasets and their related APIs and services. I’m thinking of putting together some simple tools to help explore and encourage the kind of linking that my diagram illustrated. There’s some related work going on in a few areas which is also worth mentioning: Within the UK Government Linked Data group there’s some work progressing around the notion of a “registry” for Linked Data that could be used to collect dataset metadata as well as supporting dataset discovery. There’s a draft specification which is open for comment. I’d recommend you ignore the term “registry” and see it more as a modular approach for supporting dataset discovery, lightweight Linked Data publishing, and “namespace management” (aka URL redirection). A registry function is really just one aspect of the model. There’s an Open Data on the Web workshop in April which will cover a range of topics including dataset discovery. My current thoughts are partly preparation for that event (and I’m on the Programme Committee)There’s been some discussion and a draft proposal for adding the Dataset type to Schema.org.

The periods in a time dimension provide time-based levels of granularity for analysis and reporting. The attributes are organized in hierarchies, and the granularity of the time dimension is determined largely by the business and reporting requirements for historical data. For example, most financial and sales data in business intelligence applications use a monthly or quarterly granularity. Typically, cubes in Analysis Services incorporate a time dimension in one form or another. A cube may include more than one time dimension, or several hierarchies from the same time dimension, depending on the granularity of the data and the reporting requirements. However, not all cubes require a time dimension. Some OLAP applications, such as activity-based costing, do not require a time dimension, because .costing in an activity-based dimension is based on activity instead of time. Dimension Structure The dimension structure for a time dimension depends on how the underlying data source stores the time period information. This difference in storage produces two basic types of time dimensions: Time dimension Time dimensions are similar to other dimensions in that a dimension table supplies the attributes for the dimension."

Posted on October 23, 2014Author: Tom Blakeley, Performance Architects 0When I start a new project, it’s always an exciting time for me (and I’m sure my previous clients are excited to get rid of me too!). In some cases, these new clients are seasoned veterans when it comes to Oracle Essbase, with existing solutions spanning multiple cubes, technologies and environments. At other clients, we are starting with a clean business analytics slate, and an opportunity to try new things. In both cases, if it’s a business analytics initiative using Oracle technologies, I always find myself having a conversation with a variety of different folks answering the same question, “What is Oracle Essbase?”This is always an interesting conversation, revolving around cubes, architecture, data storage, blocks, ASO, BSO, calc scripts, business rules, hierarchies, Hyperion Planning … the list goes on. I figure there are probably a few readers out there who might be interested in a quick explanation, so read on! Hopefully this provides a nice level set and starting point; if it doesn’t, please comment and ask questions!Oracle Essbase at its core is a data storage tool, which does a particularly good job organizing data for financial reporting, planning, budgeting, forecasting, and analysis at multiple levels of detail. Oracle Essbase stores and structures the data in a meaningful way to be accessed via Oracle solutions such as Oracle Hyperion Smart View for Office, Oracle Hyperion Planning, Oracle Hyperion Financial Reporting, and Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition (OBIEE)."

In this way, product positioning is part of the overall process of market segmentation, but involves a narrowing of focus. \"\" Segmentation analysis tells us how the market is defined and allows us to target one or more opportunities,\"\" Glen L. Urban and Steven H. Star wrote in their book Advanced Marketing Strategy. \"\" Product positioning takes place within a target market segment and tells us how we can compete most effectively in that market segment. \"\" The key to product positioning is understanding the dimensions consumers use to evaluate competing marketing programs and make purchase decisions. It may be helpful for small business managers to create a graph in order to map consumer perceptions along several different dimensions. Once consumer perceptions are understood, the next step is to select the best positioning for the product and take steps to align the marketing program behind this positioning choice. Some examples of possible positioning choices include quality, reliability, and unique features or benefits. Before delving into product positioning further, it may be helpful to understand the process and goals of market segmentation .

A schema is owned by a database user and has the same name as that user. Each user owns a single schema.

Schema objects do not have a one-to-one correspondence to physical files on disk that store their information. However, Oracle stores a schema object logically within a tablespace of the database. The data of each object is physically contained in one or more of the tablespace's datafiles. For some objects, such as tables, indexes, and clusters, you can specify how much disk space Oracle allocates for the object within the tablespace's datafiles. There is no relationship between schemas and tablespaces: a tablespace can contain objects from different schemas, and the objects for a schema can be contained in different tablespaces."

Diagram 1: View of a signal in the time and frequency domain A discrete Fourier analysis of a sum of cosine waves at 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 Hz A fast Fourier transform ( FFT) is an algorithm that samples a signal over a period of time (or space) and divides it into its frequency components. [ 1] These components are single sinusoidal oscillations at distinct frequencies each with their own amplitude and phase. This transformation is illustrated in Diagram 1. Over the time period measured, the signal contains 3 distinct dominant frequencies. An FFT algorithm computes the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) of a sequence, or its inverse (IFFT). Fourier analysis converts a signal from its original domain to a representation in the frequency domain and vice versa. An FFT rapidly computes such transformations by factorizing the DFT matrix into a product of sparse (mostly zero) factors. [ 2] As a result, it manages to reduce the complexity of computing the DFT from, which arises if one simply applies the definition of DFT, to, where is the data size."

The Kimball approach to creating an enterprise data warehouse has several core principles:1. Follow a proven methodology; I recommend the Kimball Lifecycle.2. Understand business requirements so you can engage the business, prioritize your efforts, and deliver business value.3. Design the data warehouse data sets for flexibility, usability, and performance.4. Build and deliver quick, business process-based increments within an enterprise data framework known as the data warehouse bus matrix.5. Design and build a DW/BI system architecture based on your business requirements, data volumes, and IT systems environment.6.

A surrogate key is an artificial or synthetic key that is used as a substitute for a natural key. Actually, a surrogate key in a data warehouse is more than just a substitute for a natural key. In a data warehouse, a surrogate key is a necessary generalization of the natural production key and is one of the basic elements of data warehouse design. Let’s be very clear: Every join between dimension tables and fact tables in a data warehouse environment should be based on surrogate keys, not natural keys. It is up to the data extract logic to systematically look up and replace every incoming natural key with a data warehouse surrogate key each time either a dimension record or a fact record is brought into the data warehouse environment. In other words, when we have a product dimension joined to a fact table, or a customer dimension joined to a fact table, or even a time dimension joined to a fact table, the actual physical keys on either end of the joins are not natural keys directly derived from the incoming data. Rather, the keys are surrogate keys that are just anonymous integers. Each one of these keys should be a simple integer, starting with one and going up to the highest number that is needed."

This paper attempts to offer a broader definition of big data that captures its other unique and defining characteristics. The rapid evolution and adoption of big data by industry has leapfrogged the discourse to popular outlets, forcing the academic press to catch up. Academic journals in numerous disciplines, which will benefit from a relevant discussion of big data, have yet to cover the topic. This paper presents a consolidated description of big data by integrating definitions from practitioners and academics. The paper's primary focus is on the analytic methods used for big data. A particular distinguishing feature of this paper is its focus on analytics related to unstructured data, which constitute 95% of big data. This paper highlights the need to develop appropriate and efficient analytical methods to leverage massive volumes of heterogeneous data in unstructured text, audio, and video formats. This paper also reinforces the need to devise new tools for predictive analytics for structured big data."

Simply put, according to ITIL, get utility and warranty right, and you are providing the intended value, which means you have a high quality service with satisfied customers. We can see that from an ITIL perspective, service quality consists of two components: utility (fitness for purpose) and warranty (fitness for use.)

The reaction produces water as a side product. The glycosidic bond in the picture below is a α-glycosidic bond because the bond is formed on the side opposite of the -CH2OH group. Reducing Sugars [ edit]Most disaccharides are hemiacetals. Hemiacetals contain a free aldehyde to be oxidized into carboxylic acid. These are classified as reducing sugar."

Other planets have water, but they either have it as a gas (Venus) or ice (Mars). This relationship is shown in Figure 1. Recent studies of Mars reveal the presence sometime in the past of running fluid, possibly water. The chemical nature of water is thus one we must examine as it permeates living systems: water is a universal solvent, and can be too much of a good thing for some cells to deal with. Figure 1. Water can exist in all three states of matter on Earth, while only in one state on our two nearest neighboring planets. The above graph is from http://www.crseo.ucsb.edu/IOM2/Triple_Point.html. Water is polar covalently bonded within the molecule. This unequal sharing of the electrons results in a slightly positive and a slightly negative side of the molecule."

"text": "\"Science & Mathematics Biology What's the difference between monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides?what's the difference between monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides Follow 4 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: There are three classes of carbohydrates: monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides. The monosaccharides are white, crystalline solids that contain a single aldehyde or ketone functional group. They are subdivided into two classes aldoses and ketoses on the basis of whether they are aldehydes or ketones. They are also classified as a triose, tetrose, pentose, hexose, or heptose on the basis of whether they contain three, four, five, six, or seven carbon atoms. The structures of many monosaccharides were first determined by Emil Fischer in the 1880s and 1890s and are still written according to a convention he developed. The Fischer projection represents what the molecule would look like if its three-dimensional structure were projected onto a piece of paper. By convention, Fischer projections are written vertically, with the aldehyde or ketone at the top.

The monosaccharide is the simpilest of all the monomers and is somtimes called the building block creating simple sugars such as fructose and gluclose. Disaccharides are two monosaccharides bonded together, hence the nickname \"\"building blocks\"\" to create more complex sugars like sucrose, or table sugar."

First, two monosaccharides are brought together such that two hydroxyl groups are close to each other.1In an enzyme-catalyzed reaction, a water molecule is eliminated, leaving a bond between C 1 of glucose and C 4 of fructose.2A glycosidic bond is left between the two monosaccharides.3Note that the glucose half of sucrose has the α configuration at C 1. Glycosidic bonds are labeled α or β depending on the anomeric configuration of the C 1 involved in the glycosidic bond. Maltose, which links two glucose molecules, has an α glycosidic bond like sucrose. Lactose, the primary sugar in milk, links glucose and galactose in a β glycosidic bond instead.

Maltose is not common in food, but can be formed from the digestion of starch, and is heavy in the sugar in malt, the juice of barley and other grains. Maltose is a member of an important biochemical series of glucose chains. The disaccharides maltose, sucrose, and lactose have the same chemical formula, C 12 H 22 O 11, however, they differ in structure (see structure below). Maltose can be produced from starch by hydrolysis in the presence of the enzyme diastase. It can be broken down into two glucose molecules by hydrolysis. In living organisms, the enzyme maltase can achieve this very rapidly. In the laboratory, heating with a strong acid for several minutes will produce the same result. There is another disaccharide that can be made from two glucoses, cellobiose, which differs only in the type of linkage used in the bond. While the difference between these two structures, maltose and cellobiose, is subtle, cellobiose has very different properties and cannot be hydrolized to glucose in the human body."

Created by living things, they are found throughout the world, in soils and seas, commercial products, and every cell of the human body. The four types most important to human structure and function are carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleotides. Before exploring these compounds, you need to first understand the chemistry of carbon. The Chemistry of Carbon What makes organic compounds ubiquitous is the chemistry of their carbon core. Recall that carbon atoms have four electrons in their valence shell, and that the octet rule dictates that atoms tend to react in such a way as to complete their valence shell with eight electrons. Carbon atoms do not complete their valence shells by donating or accepting four electrons. Instead, they readily share electrons via covalent bonds. Commonly, carbon atoms share with other carbon atoms, often forming a long carbon chain referred to as a carbon skeleton. When they do share, however, they do not share all their electrons exclusively with each other."

Four classes of organic compounds—carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids—are found in large amounts in living organisms. The chemical properties of the different classes depend on the presence of specific functional groups. In general, the larger molecules in each class are formed by joining one or more building block molecules together in a dehydration synthesis reaction during which a molecule of water is formed for each building block added. Large molecules are broken down into the smaller building block molecules by a reverse reaction called hydrolysis during which water is added. In this exercise you will learn about the structure and properties of carbohydrates, lipids and proteins and how to test for the presence of these organic molecules. I. Lipids Lipids are organic molecules that are insoluble in water and other polar solvents. Lipids are readily soluble in nonpolar solvents, such as chloroform, benzene, and ether. Lipids include fats and oils (important as energy storage compounds), phospholipids and glycolipids (part of the structure of cell membranes), waxes (protective surface coatings on many plants and animals), and steroids (found in some cell membranes and many hormones). Fats and oils have similar structures, and both serve as energy storage molecules."

It tends to progress slowly and often does not cause symptoms in its early stages. However, as the function of the liver gradually becomes worse, serious problems can develop. In the UK, the two common causes of cirrhosis are heavy alcohol drinking and hepatitis C infection. Treatments may vary, depending on the cause. If cirrhosis becomes severe, a liver transplant may be the only option. In this article What does the liver do? What is cirrhosis of the liver? What causes cirrhosis? How common is cirrhosis?"

Description Cirrhosis changes the structure of the liver and the blood vessels that nourish it. The diseasereduces the liver's ability to manufacture proteins and process hormones, nutrients, medications,and poisons. Cirrhosis gets worse over time and can become potentially life threatening. This disease cancause:excessive bleeding (hemorrhage)impotenceliver cancercoma due to accumulated ammonia and body wastes (liver failure)sepsis (blood poisoning)death Cirrhosis is the seventh leading cause of disease-related death in the United States. It is thethird most common cause of death in adults between the ages of 45 and 65. It is twice as common in men as in women. The disease occurs in more than half of all malnourished chronicalcoholics, and kills about 25,000 people a year. In Asia and Africa, however, most deaths fromcirrhosis are due to chronic hepatitis B. Types of cirrhosis Portal or nutritional cirrhosis is the form of the disease most common in the United States."

"text": "Overview Liver cancer Liver cancer is cancer that begins in the cells of your liver. Your liver is a football-sized organ that sits in the upper right portion of your abdomen, beneath your diaphragm and above your stomach. Several types of cancer can form in the liver. The most common type of liver cancer is hepatocellular carcinoma, which begins in the main type of liver cell (hepatocyte). Other types of liver cancer, such as intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma and hepatoblastoma, are much less common. Not all cancers that affect the liver are considered liver cancer. Cancer that begins in another area of the body — such as the colon, lung or breast — and then spreads to the liver is called metastatic cancer rather than liver cancer. And this type of cancer is named after the organ in which it began — such as metastatic colon cancer to describe cancer that begins in the colon and spreads to the liver. Cancer that spreads to the liver is more common than cancer that begins in the liver cells.

What is alcohol abuse? Alcohol abuse has been defined as recurrent alcohol use where it impacts on work, school or home, or to the point it is physically dangerous, gets you into trouble with the law, or continues despite the problems it has created. Health problems due to alcohol Alcohol intoxication Effects of alcohol intoxication include: Heart: slow heart rate or irregular rhythm, low blood pressure CNS: headache, confusion, memory loss, disorientation, poor coordination, emotional lability Gastrointestinal: nausea and vomiting Respiratory: asthma, slow or heavy breathing. Chronic alcohol abuse Effects of chronic alcohol abuse include: Heart: high blood pressure, heart failure, irregular heart rhythm Haemostasis: clotting is impaired with reduced survival and aggregation of platelets and reduced thromboplastin Endocrine: low testosterone levels with loss of libido, testicular atrophy, impaired fertility and reduced facial hair, high oestrogen levels with gynaecomastia, change in fat distribution and loss of body hair Oesophagus: ulcer, varices, cancer Liver: hepatitis, cirrhosis, gall stones CNS: dementia, poor coordination, Wernicke Korsakoff syndrome (Vitamin B1 deficiency) associated with psychiatric and visual disturbances Immune system: direct toxic effect on bone marrow, reduced number and function of T-cells, reduced survival of immunoglobulins. Infographic below shows effects of alcohol on the body (provided by Healthline ). Vascular effects of alcohol Facial redness One of the earliest signs of alcohol abuse is a persistently red face due to enlarged blood vessels ( telangiectasia ). This appears because regulation of vascular control in the brain fails with sustained alcohol intake. Flushing Transient flushing is also a common side effect of alcohol, particularly in heavy drinkers. It is due to acetaldehyde, the main breakdown product of alcohol."

D., is a clinical fellow in hepatology at the University of Miami Center for Liver Diseases, Miami, Florida. Patients infected with the hepatitis C virus (HCV) who drink heavily are likely to suffer more severe liver injury, promoting disease progression to cirrhosis and increasing their risk for liver cancer. Some research, although not conclusive, suggests that even moderate drinking may spur liver damage in HCV–infected patients. Research areas that have the greatest potential for developing more effective treatment options include HCV virology, immunology, animal models, and the mechanisms of liver injury. Key words: hepatitis C virus; alcoholic beverage; chronic AODE (alcohol and other drug effects); amount of AOD use; epidemiology; risk factors; disease course; alcoholic liver cirrhosis; gender differences; biochemical mechanism; RNA; mutation; apoptosis; inflammation; hepatocellular carcinoma; regulatory proteins; immune response; alcoholic fatty liver; treatment issues; treatment outcome; interferon Hepatitis C is an infectious liver disease caused by the hepatitis C virus (HCV). The virus, which causes inflammation in the liver and can lead to more serious illness, primarily is spread by intravenous contact with the blood of an infected person. About 4 million people in the United States have been infected, making it the Nation’s most common blood–borne disease, resulting in the deaths of between 10,000 and 12,000 people each year (National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases 2003). Those at heightened risk for HCV infection include intravenous drug users, people who received blood transfusions or organ transplants before 1992 or clotting factors made before 1987, health care workers who suffer needle–stick accidents, and infants born to mothers who are infected with HCV (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 1998). Several factors may accelerate the progression of hepatitis C, including older age at the time of infection, male gender, obesity, abnormal accumulation of fat in the liver (a condition known as fatty liver, or steatosis), and excessive alcohol consumption (Poynard et al."

Moreover, chronic excessive alcohol use is the single most important cause of illness and death from liver disease (alcoholic hepatitis and cirrhosis) in the United States (1). The Normal Liver Normal liver function is essential to life. The liver is the largest organ of the body, located in the upper right section of the abdomen. It filters circulating blood, removing and destroying toxic substances; it secretes bile into the small intestine to help digest and absorb fats; and it is involved in many of the metabolic systems of the body. Digested food substances are carried from the intestine directly to the liver for further processing. The liver stores vitamins; synthesizes cholesterol; metabolizes or stores sugars; processes fats; and assembles amino acids into various proteins, some for use within the liver and some for export. The liver controls blood fluidity and regulates blood-clotting mechanisms. It also converts the products of protein metabolism into urea for excretion by the kidneys."

Visit the Mercola Video Library Story at-a-glance Fructose is virtually identical to alcohol with regard to the metabolic havoc it wreaks When you consume fructose, 100 percent of it goes directly to your liver to be metabolized; this is why it can be extremely hepatotoxic when it overloads your liver, just like alcohol The metabolism of fructose causes most of the same toxic effects as ethanol, such as visceral adiposity (belly fat), insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome; but when consumed excessively fructose may actually be more damaging to your health, having over 70 documented adverse effects Fructose “buzzes” the brain like other narcotics, displaying both dopaminergic and opioid properties, which may be why people find themselves consuming such large amounts even while it is reducing both the quality and length of their lives It’s important to carefully limit your intake of fructose, just like your intake of alcohol; an appropriate amount of fructose is no more than 25 grams per day, but if you're overweight or at risk of (or have) heart disease, cancer, or type 2 diabetes, then you're probably better off cutting that down to 10-15 grams per day By Dr. Mercola You may already be aware that fructose – the sugar found in everything from high fructose corn syrup and fruit juice to agave syrup and honey – is harmful when consumed in excess – which is exactly what many (if not most) Americans do. However, you may be surprised to learn that fructose is, in many ways, very similar to alcohol in the damage that it can do to your body. So while you may already be exercising caution by not overconsuming alcoholic beverages, it may be time to take a closer look at the equally potentially damaging effects associated with your intake of sodas, fruit juice and other fructose-sweetened foods and drinks as well. Fructose's Three Major Similarities to Alcohol Unlike glucose, which can be used by virtually every cell in your body, fructose can only be metabolized by your liver, because your liver is the only organ that has the transporter for it. Since all fructose gets shuttled to your liver, and, if you eat a typical Western-style diet, you consume high amounts of it, fructose ends up taxing and damaging your liver in the same way alcohol and other toxins do. In fact, fructose is virtually identical to alcohol with regard to the metabolic havoc it wreaks. According to Dr. Lustig, Professor of Pediatrics in the Division of Endocrinology at the University of California, fructose is a \"\"chronic, dose-dependent liver toxin.\"\" And just like alcohol, fructose is metabolized directly into fat – not cellular energy, like glucose."

Alcohol can have an impact on every body system. How much alcohol a person drinks, genetic factors, gender, body mass, and general state of health all influence how a person's health responds to chronic heavy drinking. However, studies consistently show that, overall, heavy alcohol consumption is detrimental to health and a leading preventable cause of death. When the body takes in more alcohol than it can metabolize, the excess builds up in the bloodstream. The heart circulates the blood alcohol throughout the body, leading to changes in chemistry and normal body functions. Even a single binge-drinking episode can result in significant bodily impairment, damage, or death. Over time, excessive alcohol use can lead to the development of many chronic diseases and other serious health problems. Alcohol has been found to contribute to at least 60 different health conditions. Let's look at the ten most common effects of heavy drinking."

"text": "Facebook Blood tests for liver function Some of the standard or routine blood tests that your doctor will order to check “liver function” are in reality only able to detect liver damage. These tests may not be sensitive enough to accurately reflect whether your liver is functioning at its optimum level. These tests will usually be abnormal in significant liver disease or liver distress; however, they can still give normal readings in some cases of mild liver disease. This is why imaging tests of the liver and gallbladder, such as ultrasound scans or CAT scans or MRI scans are important. These imaging tests can determine the degree of liver disease and if there are any tumours, cysts, gallstones or fatty accumulations which change the texture of the liver. Thankfully it is often possible to return abnormal liver function tests to normal with our dietary program. A routine blood test for liver function will be processed by an automated multi-channel analyser, and will check the blood levels of the following: Total Bilirubin The normal range is 0 to 20 umol/L or 0.174 to 1.04 mg/d L. This test measures the amount of bile pigment in the blood. If blood levels of bilirubin become very elevated, the patient may have a yellow colour to the skin and eyes and this is known as jaundice. Liver Enzymes AST (aspartate aminotransferase), which was previously called SGOT, can also be elevated in heart and muscle diseases and is not liver specific. The normal range of AST is 0 to 45 U/LALT (alanine aminotransferase), which was previously called SGPT, is more specific for liver damage."

P., is chief of the Section of Liver Disease & Nutrition, Alcohol Research Center, Bronx, NY Medical Center and professor of medicine and pathology at Mt. Sinai School of Medicine, New York, New York. The preparation of this article was supported in part by National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism grants AA–11115 and AA–12867, by the Department of Veterans Affairs, and by the Kingsbridge Research Foundation. Infection with the hepatitis C virus (HCV) has become a leading cause of scarring of the liver (i.e., fibrosis) and cirrhosis in the United States. HCV-related cirrhosis (with its associated complications, such as liver cancer) is a major cause of death, although it develops slowly and occurs only in approximately one-third of HCV-infected patients. Alcohol can exacerbate HCV infection and the associated liver damage by causing oxidative stress and promoting fibrosis, thereby accelerating disease progression to cirrhosis. Furthermore, alcohol may exacerbate the side-effects associated with current antiviral treatment of HCV infection and impair the body's immune defense against the virus. Of the HCV-infected people who do not consume alcohol, only a minority progresses to severe liver disease and requires antiviral treatment. Because alcohol potentiates the fibrosis- and cancer-inducing actions of HCV, alcoholics are particularly vulnerable to HCV infection and most in need of treatment. Key words: hepatitis C virus; chronic AODE (effects of alcohol or other drug use, abuse, and dependence); disease course; ethanol metabolism disorder; oxidative stress; fibrosis; hepatocyte; carcinoma; anti-infective agents; interferon; antioxidants; patient compliance H epatitis is an inflammation of the liver that is characterized by jaundice, liver enlargement, abdominal and gastric discomfort, abnormal liver function, and other symptoms. Although in many patients the diseased liver is able to regenerate its tissue and retain its function, severe hepatitis may progress to scarring of the liver tissue (i.e., fibrosis), cirrhosis, liver cancer (i.e., hepatocellular carcinoma), and chronic liver dysfunction."

"text": "Diabetes Insipidus in Dogs26 Aug, 2015 Dr. Arnold Plotnick 100,602 Views Share Overview of Diabetes Insipidus in Dogs Diabetes insipidus (DI) is a metabolic disorder characterized by excessive, extreme urination, and accompanied by undue thirst. It is either caused by impaired production of a hormone called ADH (anti-diuretic hormone) from the brain (central DI), or an impaired ability of the kidney to respond properly to the ADH (nephrogenic DI). Central DI can occur if there is damage to the part of the brain that makes the ADH. Trauma or cancer would be potential causes of this kind of damage. Most cases are “idiopathic”; in other words, there is no known cause. Nephrogenic (originating from the kidneys) DI is a very rare congenital disorder that also occurs for no known reason. There is no apparent age, gender, or breed predilection for DI. Most cases occur in dogs; cats are rarely affected. As long as dogs with DI have unlimited access to water and are in an environment where excessive urination is not a problem, most dogs do fine and have an excellent life expectancy. What to Watch For Symptoms of Diabetes Insipidus in Dogs may include: Severe, excessive urination Insatiable desire to drink water Stupor, disorientation, lack of coordination, or seizures if a brain tumor is the primary cause Diagnosis of Diabetes Insipidus in Dogs Diagnostic tests are needed to rule out other common causes of excessive thirst and urination, including: Complete medical history and physical examination Complete blood count Serum biochemistry panel Urinalysis X-rays or ultrasound Bile acid test Urine culture Tests of the adrenal gland Thyroid hormone test Modified water deprivation test is the most important test for confirming a diagnosis of diabetes insipidus Treatment of Diabetes Insipidus in Dogs If therapy is necessary, treatment for diabetes insipidus in dogs may include the following: Desmopressin acetate Chlorpropamide Thiazide diuretics Salt restriction Home Care and Prevention Give medications as directed and make absolutely certain the dog has constant access to water."

The diseasereduces the liver's ability to manufacture proteins and process hormones, nutrients, medications,and poisons. Cirrhosis gets worse over time and can become potentially life threatening. This disease cancause:excessive bleeding (hemorrhage)impotenceliver cancercoma due to accumulated ammonia and body wastes (liver failure)sepsis (blood poisoning)death Cirrhosis is the seventh leading cause of disease-related death in the United States. It is thethird most common cause of death in adults between the ages of 45 and 65. It is twice as common in men as in women. The disease occurs in more than half of all malnourished chronicalcoholics, and kills about 25,000 people a year. In Asia and Africa, however, most deaths fromcirrhosis are due to chronic hepatitis B. Types of cirrhosis Portal or nutritional cirrhosis is the form of the disease most common in the United States."

The majority of your immune system is actually located in inside your gastrointestinal tract, which is also known as the microbiome, and researchers believe that up to 90 percent of all diseases can be traced in some way back to dysfunction of the gut/microbiome. That’s why if you have lupus, focusing on a lupus diet treatment plan is a major step natural lupus treatment. As the Lupus Foundation of America puts it, “The scarcity of lupus-specific diet and nutrition information remains a great frustration. But research has given us insight into foods and lifestyle choices that can help diminish the harmful effects of lupus. In particular, there are foods that can affect the body’s inflammatory response.” ( 1)A healing lupus diet can help improve gut health in those with lupus by preventing allergies, reducing deficiencies and slowing down free radical damage. In fact, due to how autoimmune disorders develop, a low-processed lupus diet high in antioxidants is usually key for managing any autoimmune-related symptoms, including those due to arthritis, thyroid disorders, etc., which often overlap with lupus symptoms. Nutrients that are important for managing lupus, such as fiber and antioxidants, seem to have the most beneficial effects when consumed from real food rather than from supplements."

Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the U. S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). The Committee was charged with examining the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2010 to determine topics for which new scientific evidence was likely to be available with the potential to inform the next edition of the Guidelines and to place its primary emphasis on the development of food-based recommendations that are of public health importance for Americans ages 2 years and older published since the last DGAC deliberations. The 2015 DGAC’s work was guided by two fundamental realities. First, about half of all American adults—117 million individuals—have one or more preventable, chronic diseases, and about two-thirds of U. S. adults—nearly 155 million individuals—are overweight or obese. These conditions have been highly prevalent for more than two decades. Poor dietary patterns, overconsumption of calories, and physical inactivity directly contribute to these disorders. Second, individual nutrition and physical activity behaviors and other health-related lifestyle behaviors are strongly influenced by personal, social, organizational, and environmental contexts and systems. Positive changes in individual diet and physical activity behaviors, and in the environmental contexts and systems that affect them, could substantially improve health outcomes. Recognizing these realities, the Committee developed a conceptual model based on socio-ecological frameworks to guide its work (see Part B. Chapter 1: Introduction) and organized its evidence review to examine current status and trends in food and nutrient intakes, dietary patterns and health outcomes, individual lifestyle behavior change, food and physical activity environments and settings, and food sustainability and safety. The remainder of this Executive Summary provides brief synopses of the DGAC’s topic-specific evidence review chapters."

That also means that these diseases can theoretically be contained more easily in case of an outbreak. Parasitic diseases have many transmission modes. However, they are mainly acquired through insect vector or by ingestion of contaminated food or water. As mentioned in the next paragraphs, other modes of transmission can also occur, but they are less common. Some insect vectors can transmit parasitic diseases, mainly protozoan parasites. They can be an accidental carrier of the disease, for example when a fly came in contact with animal or human faeces and carries the parasite on its body, or they can be an intermediate host for the parasite. In the latter case, the insect species is a specific host for the parasite species, meaning that one type of parasites infects only one or a few specific insect species. Then, the insect can infect humans (or sometimes other mammals that acts as intermediate or final hosts) by two principle means. Firstly, insect can transmit parasites such as Plasmodium and Leishmania through its saliva while taking a blood meal on a human."

Instead, Atlantic salmon is now extensively farm raised: primarily in Chile, Norway, Scotland, and British Columbia. There are abundant supplies of wild Pacific salmon, especially from Alaska, due to successful management of wild harvests. While there are a few farms in British Columbia that raise Pacific salmon, the consumer can be assured that almost all Pacific salmon is wild caught. Salmon aquaculture, also known as salmon \"\"farming\"\", is the industrial mass production of salmon. Farmed salmon are raised in net cages located in the ocean close off shore. Disease and parasites tend to multiply quickly in these densely populated feedlots and can spread to wild fish. In addition, fish farm waste drops to the ocean floor below the pens.

"text": "Hashimoto's Disease is an autoimmune disorder which leads to hypothyroidism, causing a variety of symptoms. When left untreated, the disease can be fatal, as the underactive thyroid leads to muscle weakness, which will eventually cause heart failure. It can also cause myxedema, a dangerous skin and tissue condition. Fortunately, many cases are caught long before this stage, and the condition is manageable, especially when caught early. Regular medical checkups are usually enough to ensure that the condition is caught early. This disease is named after Doctor Hakaru Hashimoto, a Japanese physician who first described the condition in the early 1900s. In Hashimoto's Disease, the immune system registers the thyroid gland as an invader, and it starts to attack it. The thyroid becomes inflamed as a result, causing hormone production to decline, and leading to hypothyroidism. The condition also causes a goiter, a swelling of the neck created when the thyroid gland becomes enlarged. Many cases of Hashimoto's Disease are caught in routine blood tests and regular physical exams, with the doctor noting that something is awry and recommending additional testing."

Marinaro has a Ph D in English from the University of Florida and has been teaching English composition and Literature since 2007. This lesson will introduce you to the logical fallacy and explain how it works in an argument. We'll also discuss examples of common fallacies and the importance of identifying and avoiding them in effective arguments. Then test your knowledge with a quiz. What Is a Logical Fallacy? You've probably heard of Aristotle, the Greek philosopher and scientist, known as the father of logic. Among his vast contributions to the body of knowledge were in reasoning and fallacies: rhetoric, the study of argument and persuasive strategies, and logical fallacy refers to faulty reasoning or a breakdown in the logic of an argument. As writers, we try to avoid fallacies to prove our arguments; as readers, it's important to be able to identify fallacies to discover whether or not we are being misled or if we cannot trust the information we're receiving. While logical fallacies in arguments are often unintentional, writers can sometimes use them intentionally to mislead or manipulate an audience."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Reification (also known as concretism, hypostatization, or the fallacy of misplaced concreteness) is a fallacy of ambiguity, when an abstraction (abstract belief or hypothetical construct) is treated as if it were a concrete real event or physical entity. [ 1] [2] In other words, it is the error of treating something that is not concrete, such as an idea, as a concrete thing. A common case of reification is the confusion of a model with reality: \"\" the map is not the territory \"\". Reification is part of normal usage of natural language (just like metonymy for instance), as well as of literature, where a reified abstraction is intended as a figure of speech, and actually understood as such. But the use of reification in logical reasoning or rhetoric is misleading and usually regarded as a fallacy. [ citation needed]Contents [ hide ]1 Etymology2 Theory3 Fallacy of misplaced concreteness4 Vicious abstractionism5 Use of constructs in science6 Relation to other fallacies7 As a rhetorical device8 See also9 References Etymology [ edit]From Latin res (\"\"thing\"\") and - fication, a suffix related to facere (\"\"to make\"\"). [ 3] Thus reification can be loosely translated as \"\"thing-making\"\"; the turning of something abstract into a concrete thing or object. Theory [ edit]Reification takes place when natural or social processes are misunderstood or simplified; for example, when human creations are described as \"\"facts of nature, results of cosmic laws, or manifestations of divine will\"\". [ 4]Reification may derive from an inborn tendency to simplify experience by assuming constancy as much as possible. [ 5]Fallacy of misplaced concreteness [ edit]According to Alfred North Whitehead, one commits the fallacy of misplaced concreteness when one mistakes an abstract belief, opinion, or concept about the way things are for a physical or \"\"concrete\"\" reality: \"\"There is an error; but it is merely the accidental error of mistaking the abstract for the concrete."

E. Moore in Principia Ethica (1903), which Moore stated was committed whenever a philosopher attempts to prove a claim about ethics by appealing to a definition of the term \"\"good\"\" in terms of one or more natural properties (such as \"\"pleasant\"\", \"\"healthy\"\", \"\"natural\"\", etc.). The naturalistic fallacy is related to, and often confused with, the is-ought problem (as formulated by, for example, David Hume ). As a result, the term is sometimes used loosely to describe arguments which claim to draw ethical conclusions from natural facts. Even more distantly, the term is used to describe arguments which claim to draw ethical conclusions from the fact that something is \"\"natural\"\" or \"\"unnatural. \"\" Contents [ show]Moore's discussion Edit Moore's argument in Principia Ethica is (among other things) a defense of ethical non-naturalism; he argues that the term \"\"good\"\" (in the sense of intrinsic value) is indefinable, because it names a simple, non-natural property. It is, rather, \"\"one of those innumerable objects of thought which are themselves incapable of definition, because they are the ultimate terms by reference to which whatever is capable of definition must be defined\"\" ( Principia Ethica § 10 ¶ 1 ). By contrast, many ethical philosophers have tried to prove some of their claims about ethics by appealing to an analysis of the meaning of the term \"\"good\"\"; they held, that is, that \"\"good\"\" can be defined in terms of one or more natural properties which we already understand (such as \"\"pleasure\"\", in the case of hedonists, or \"\"survival\"\", in the case of evolutionary ethics ). Moore coined the term \"\"naturalistic fallacy\"\" to describe arguments of this form; he explains (in § 12) that the fallacy involved is an instance of a more general type of fallacy, which he leaves unnamed, but which we might call the \"\"definitional fallacy\"\". The fallacy is committed whenever a statement to the effect that some object has a simple indefinable property is misunderstood as a definition that gives the meaning of the simple indefinable property: That \"\"pleased\"\" does not mean \"\"having the sensation of red\"\", or anything else whatever, does not prevent us from understanding what it does mean. It is enough for us to know that \"\"pleased\"\" does mean \"\"having the sensation of pleasure\"\", and though pleasure is absolutely indefinable, though pleasure is pleasure and nothing else whatever, yet we feel no difficulty in saying that we are pleased."

"text": "Pathetic Fallacy Pathetic Fallacy Definition Pathetic fallacy is a literary device that attributes human qualities and emotions to inanimate objects of nature. The word pathetic in the term is not used in the derogatory sense of being miserable; rather, it stands for “imparting emotions to something else. ”Difference Between Pathetic Fallacy and Personification Generally, pathetic fallacy is confused with personification. The fact is that they differ in their function. Pathetic fallacy is a kind of personification that gives human emotions to inanimate objects of nature; for example, referring to weather features reflecting a mood. Personification, on the other hand, is a broader term. It gives human attributes to abstract ideas, animate objects of nature, or inanimate non-natural objects. For example, the sentence “The somber clouds darkened our mood” is a pathetic fallacy, as human attributes are given to an inanimate object of nature reflecting a mood. But, the sentence “The sparrow talked to us” is a personification because the animate object of nature – the sparrow – is given the human quality of “talking. ”Examples of Pathetic Fallacy in Literature Lets us analyze some examples of pathetic fallacy in literature: Example #1: Macbeth (By William Shakespeare)Shakespeare uses pathetic fallacy in his play Macbeth to describe the dark murder of the character Duncan."

"text": "Fallacy Friday: Division and Composition March 5th, 2011 by Matt Today I want to look at two fallacies, the fallacy of composition and the fallacy of division. These two fallacies are related in that they both mistakenly confuse what is true of the parts with what is true of the whole. The Fallacy of Composition The fallacy of composition involves mistakenly reasoning that what is true of all the parts of something is therefore true of the whole of that thing. Some obvious examples would be reasoning that because every track on a CD is 10 minutes long the whole CD is ten minutes long; or arguing that because atoms are colourless, and m&ms are made up of atoms, it follows m&ms are colourless. These are examples are fairly obviously cases of invalid inferences. However, some examples are less obvious. In some versions of the Cosmological Argument for God’s existence, or at least in some apocryphal versions of the argument, it is mistakenly argued that because every item in the univer se has a prior cause, the universe as a whole has a prior cause. This is mistaken. If the universe is infinite in time, i.e. it has no beginning, then it is possible for the whole universe to be uncaused while every part is caused by a prior part. H ence, what is true of each individual part of the universe will not be true of the whole."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search See also: Confirmation bias and Cherry picking (fallacy)Look up anecdotal evidence in Wiktionary, the free dictionary. Anecdotal evidence is evidence from anecdotes, i.e., evidence collected in a casual or informal manner and relying heavily or entirely on personal testimony. When compared to other types of evidence, anecdotal evidence is generally regarded as limited in value due to a number of potential weaknesses, but may be considered within the scope of scientific method as some anecdotal evidence can be both empirical and verifiable, e.g. in the use of case studies in medicine. Other anecdotal evidence, however, does not qualify as scientific evidence, because its nature prevents it from being investigated by the scientific method. Where only one or a few anecdotes are presented, there is a larger chance that they may be unreliable due to cherry-picked or otherwise non-representative samples of typical cases. [ 1] [2] Similarly, psychologists have found that due to cognitive bias people are more likely to remember notable or unusual examples rather than typical examples. [ 3] Thus, even when accurate, anecdotal evidence is not necessarily representative of a typical experience. Accurate determination of whether an anecdote is \"\"typical\"\" requires statistical evidence. [ 4] Misuse of anecdotal evidence is an informal fallacy and is sometimes referred to as the \"\"person who\"\" fallacy (\"\"I know a person who...\"\"; \"\"I know of a case where...\"\" etc.) which places undue weight on experiences of close peers which may not be typical."

"text": "TIP Sheet FALLACIES and PROPAGANDAIt is important to be able to evaluate what you read and hear. If you did not sort the credible from the incredible, the serious from the playful, the essential from the nonessential, the world would be full of conflicting and bewildering messages. Critical thinking enables you to distinguish between fact and opinion and distinguish sound from faulty reasoning. One kind of faulty reasoning is a fallacy, a breakdown of logic. A fallacious argument is one that tries to argue from A to B, but because it contains hidden assumptions or factual irrelevancies, reaches an invalid conclusion. Another kind of faulty reasoning results from substituting emotion for thought. Propaganda is an indirect message appealing primarily to emotion. It is aimed at forming opinions rather than increasing knowledge. Propaganda intends to persuade without offering a logical reason to adopt a particular view or take a particular action. While the word itself carries rather a negative connotation (implying intent to mislead or deceive) the techniques can be used in good causes as well—a Cancer Society fundraiser, for example."

"text": "\"Fallacies First published Fri May 29, 2015Two competing conceptions of fallacies are that they are false but popular beliefs and that they are deceptively bad arguments. These we may distinguish as the belief and argument conceptions of fallacies. Academic writers who have given the most attention to the subject of fallacies insist on, or at least prefer, the argument conception of fallacies, but the belief conception is prevalent in popular and non-scholarly discourse. As we shall see, there are yet other conceptions of what fallacies are, but the present inquiry focuses on the argument conception of fallacies. Being able to detect and avoid fallacies has been viewed as a supplement to criteria of good reasoning. The knowledge of fallacies is needed to arm us against the most enticing missteps we might take with arguments—so thought not only Aristotle but also the early nineteenth century logicians Richard Whately and John Stuart Mill. But as the course of logical theory from the late nineteenth-century forward turned more and more to axiomatic systems and formal languages, the study of reasoning and natural language argumentation received much less attention, and hence developments in the study of fallacies almost came to a standstill. Until well past the middle of the twentieth century, discussions of fallacies were for the most part relegated to introductory level textbooks. It was only when philosophers realized the ill fit between formal logic, on the one hand, and natural language reasoning and argumentation, on the other, that the interest in fallacies has returned. Since the 1970s the utility of knowing about fallacies has been acknowledged (Johnson and Blair 1993), and the way in which fallacies are incorporated into theories of argumentation has been taken as a sign of a theory’s level of adequacy (Biro and Siegel 2007, van Eemeren 2010)."

Not all are fallacious in the same manner. Related appeals in reasoning examined here include the ad personam, tu quoque, ex concessis, poisoning the well, guilt by association, ad feminam, and genetic fallacies, among others. Nonfallacious uses of argumentum ad hominem are also examined even though many logic textbooks mistakenly simply define all ad hominem arguments as fallacies.ad Hominem Fallacy: (abusive and circumstantial): the fallacy of attacking the character or circumstances of an individual who is advancing a statement or an argument instead of seeking to disprove the truth of the statement or the soundness of the argument. Often the fallacy is characterized simply as a personal attack. Informal Guide to ad Hominem Person L proffers claim y. Person L 's circumstance or character is unsatisfactory (or desirable), or L does not act in accordance with y. Claim y is implausible or unlikely (in the case of unsatisfactory character), or claim y is plausible or likely (in the case of desirable character). The ad hominem abusive is the fallacy that that an agent's belief has not been proved (or is mistaken) because that person is somehow deficient as evidenced by some undesirable aspects of that person's character, personality, morality, or competence. [ 1] Consider this example: “After a 35-year career in agriculture, which took me to all corners of the world in segments ranging from animal productivity to plant protection, genetics, and biotechnology, I … reviewed Prince Charles' speech. I found foolishness and arrogant condescension.” [ 2]The ad hominem circumstantial is the fallacy that someone's belief has not been proved (or is mistaken because that person's position is motivated by actions or personal circumstances which most likely bias that person's judgment."

This change is imperceptible; but is however, of the last consequence. For as this ought, or ought not, expresses some new relation or affirmation, 'tis necessary that it shou'd be observ'd and explain'd; and at the same time that a reason should be given; for what seems altogether inconceivable, how this new relation can be a deduction from others, which are entirely different from it. [ 2]The is-ought problem has become prominent in matters of ethics and meta-ethics.

[ citation needed]Examples [ edit]Mean and median [ edit]An example of ecological fallacy is the assumption that a population average has a simple interpretation when considering likelihoods for an individual. For instance, if the average score of a group is larger than zero, it does not mean that a random individual of that group is more likely to have a positive score than a negative one (as long as there are more negative scores than positive scores an individual is more likely to have a negative score). Similarly, if a particular group of people is measured to have a lower average IQ than the general population, it is an error to conclude that a randomly-selected member of the group is more likely than not to have a lower IQ than the average IQ of the general population; it is also not necessarily the case that a randomly selected member of the group is more likely than not to have a lower IQ than a randomly-selected member of the general population."

Check out examples of Ad Hominem, Begging the Question, Non-Sequitur, and Straw Man in part two . When I hear a politician vehemently spew illogical reasoning in order to try to get their point across my stomach flips over and my knuckles clench. Not only are they using poor deductive reasoning, but I know so many people are obediently nodding their heads in agreement because their speechwriters make the argument sound appealing. “ No!” I yell at the radio as NPR interviews a senator who bathes in fallacious arguments. There are many persuasive tools available to an arguer, but some forms of reasoning are stronger than others. Whether or not a conclusion is true, the argument used can still be fallacious. A fallacy is an argument that uses poor logical form but disguises itself as a valid, logical argument by sounding appealing. There are many fallacies used every day in advertisements, political debates, and other forms of persuasion."

Bettmann / Contributor / Getty Imagesby Wade Bradford Updated January 18, 2018Constantin Stanislavsky, famed Russian actor, director, and teacher, profoundly influenced the theater of the 20th century and beyond. Throughout his long life, he developed a variety techniques that became known as \"\"The Stanislavsky System\"\" or \"\"The Method.\"\" His books My Life in Art (an autobiography), An Actor Prepares, Building a Character, and Creating a Role are still studied today. What Is the Stanislavsky System? Although very complex, one of the basic goals of the \"\"Stanislavsky System\"\" was to portray believable, natural people on stage. This notion was a striking contrast to the thespians in 19th century Russia. Most of the actors during that era spoke in a grandiose tone and gestured in an over-the-top manner. Stanislavsky (also spelled \"\"Konstantine Stanislavski\"\") helped to change much of that. In many ways, Stanislavsky is the father of today's style of Method Acting, a process in which actors immerse themselves into their characters as much as possible."

For our purposes, I'll tell you about five of the most famous, well-known names that you're bound to hear around the American theater over and over again: Constantin Stanislavski, Uta Hagen, Sandy Meisner, Stella Adler, and Lee Strasberg. ( However, it is important to know that there are many others.) One thing I've learned in my research is that many acting teachers have different ways of teaching the exact same lessons. For the most part, they believe in the same preparation, but have different \"\"specialties.\"\" Thus, you might notice some overlap between teachers and their techniques. This is to be expected: if one teacher finds something that works and can show results with it, other teachers are bound to try it. Konstantin Stanislavski Konstantin Stanislavski (1863-1963) was a Russian director and actor. To this day, he is one of the most influential figures in American theater and has influenced dozens upon dozens of actors and teachers. The umbrella term for his series of techniques is called Stanislavski's system, and the most common chunk of the system is \"\"the method.\"\""

With presentational acting, the actor acknowledges the audience. With representational acting, the audience is studiously ignored and treated as voyeurs. In the sense of actor-character relationship, the type of theatre that uses 'presentational acting' in the actor-audience relationship, is often associated with a performer using 'representational acting' in their actor-character methodology.

In some plays all of the actors may adopt the same attitude towards the audience (for example, the entire cast of a production of a Chekhovian drama will usually ignore the audience until the curtain call); in other plays the performers create a range of different relationships towards the audience (for example, most Shakespearean dramas have certain characters who frequently adopt a downstage 'platea' playing position that is in direct contact with the audience, while other characters behave as if unaware of the audience's presence). [ 1]Presentational acting [ edit]Conventionalized presentational devices include the apologetic prologue and epilogue, the induction (much used by Ben Jonson and by Shakespeare in The Taming of the Shrew ), the play-within-the-play, the aside directed to the audience, and other modes of direct address. These premeditated and 'composed' forms of actor-audience persuasion are in effect metadramatic and metatheatrical functions, since they bring attention to bear on the fictional status of the characters, on the very theatrical transaction (in soliciting the audience's indulgence, for instance), and so on. They appear to be cases of 'breaking frame', since the actor is required to step out of his role and acknowledge the presence of the public, but in practice they are licensed means of confirming the frame by pointing out the pure facticity of the representation."

( Possibly by non-Western actors, too, but I'm not sure about that.) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Con... The Method, which was popularized in the 1950s by Lee Strasberg at the Actor's Studio, is an American offshoot, based on what many people, today, feel was a misunderstanding of Stanislavsky's ideas. In most acting schools I know of, Method Acting is no longer taught. The focus is on a more \"\"pure\"\" Stansilavskian system. The Stanislavsky System and The Method share a common emphasis on building a character internally, rather than externally. Pre-20th Century actors focused more on physicality, gestures and vocal techniques than on psychology. ( Freud and Stanislavsky were contemporaries.) In other words, a pre-Stanislavsky actor might spend hours figuring out how his character walked, talked and dressed. The Stanislavsky actor focuses on his character's inner life. ("

In the visual arts, illusionistic realism is the accurate depiction of lifeforms, perspective, and the details of light and colour. Realist works of art may emphasize the ugly or sordid, such as works of social realism, regionalism, or Kitchen sink realism.

While performative elements are present in every society, it is customary to acknowledge a distinction between theatre as an art form and entertainment and theatrical or performative elements in other activities.

Think emotional memory recall, spiritual realism, and self-analysis. Lee Strasberg’s Method Lee Strasberg’s actors intensify their connections to the work by mimicking characters’ experiences within the context of their own (real) lives, and reaching deeper connections and understandings of their characters’ emotional worlds. Stella Adler Stella Adler’s approach is also built on that of Stanislavski, but imagination is emphasized over emotional recall; in her words, “You have to get beyond your own precious inner experiences. ”Meisner Technique Famous for his “repetition” exercise, Meisner teaches actors to “live truthfully under given imaginary circumstances.” The work emphasizes openness, honesty, and listening above all. Michael Chekhov Michael Chekhov created a famous “psycho-physical” technique which draws on physical actions and mind-body connection to create a sensual approach to the character. Practical Aesthetics Developed by actor William H. Macy and playwright David Mamet, this analytical approach emphasizes the simple pursuit of an action above all else. Actors’ attention goes to text-analysis, script work, and a literal understanding of a scene’s driving events. Uta Hagen It’s all about realism for Uta Hagen."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search This article is about the play by William Shakespeare. For other uses, see Hamlet (disambiguation). The American actor Edwin Booth as Hamlet, ca. 1870The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, often shortened to Hamlet ( / ˈ h æ m l ɪ t / ), is a tragedy written by William Shakespeare at an uncertain date between 1599 and 1602. Set in Denmark, the play dramatises the revenge Prince Hamlet is called to wreak upon his uncle, Claudius, by the ghost of Hamlet's father, King Hamlet. Claudius had murdered his own brother and seized the throne, also marrying his deceased brother's widow. Hamlet is Shakespeare's longest play, and is considered among the most powerful and influential works of world literature, with a story capable of \"\"seemingly endless retelling and adaptation by others\"\". [ 1] It was probably one of Shakespeare's most popular works during his lifetime, [2] and still ranks among his most performed, topping the performance list of the Royal Shakespeare Company and its predecessors in Stratford-upon-Avon since 1879. [ 3] It has inspired many other writers—from Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and Charles Dickens to James Joyce and Iris Murdoch —and has been described as \"\"the world's most filmed story after Cinderella \"\". [ 4]The story of Shakespeare's Hamlet was derived from the legend of Amleth, preserved by 13th-century chronicler Saxo Grammaticus in his Gesta Danorum, as subsequently retold by the 16th-century scholar François de Belleforest."

"text": "\"\"\"Take nothing for granted. Think of your own experiences and use them truthfully. \"\" Born in Moscow in 1863, Constantin Sergeyevich Stanislavsky had a more profound effect on the process of acting than anyone else in the twentieth century. At age 14, Stanislavsky joined a theatrical group organized by his family, and soon became its central figure. Throughout the late 1800s he improved as an actor and began to produce and direct plays. It was his assertion that if the theater was going to be meaningful it needed to move beyond the external representation that acting had primarily been. Over forty years he created an approach that fore fronted the psychological and emotional aspects of acting. The Stanislavsky System, or \"\"the method,\"\" as it has become known, held that an actor’s main responsibility was to be believed (rather than recognized or understood). To reach this \"\"believable truth\"\", Stanislavsky first employed methods such as \"\"emotional memory.\"\" To prepare for a role that involves fear, the actor must remember something frightening, and attempt to act the part in the emotional space of that fear they once felt."

This project took six years of planning and preparation before the granite for the ten-foot statue was transported to Vladivostok from a quarry in China a thousand miles away; appropriate, since Yul spent much of his childhood in China after his family fled Soviet Russia. Sculptor Alexei Bokiy, with whom I had begun discussing the monument in 2006, understood well the enormous challenge confronting him in carving such a very famous face and figure out of a single block of stone. The City of Vladivostok that now owns the land in front of \"\"Dom Bryner\"\" contributed the grounds for the park, and financed the landscaping and architectural design. At night, along with the glow of the 1920s street lights, the statue is illuminated by spotlights as Yul Brynner himself was throughout his long career.

Example Sentences Ruth scored the last goal for her team, adding a feather in her cap. He will have one more feather in his cap after he has finished this incredibly difficult assignment. They can claim this feather in their cap since it was this group of soldiers who withstood the enemy in such harsh conditions. One does not get chances to add a feather in their cap too often. So the opportunity to do so should be utilized well. Origin It is believed that the Native American soldiers would add a feather to the head dress of the warriors who have been brave.

"text": "\"The Crowns of Egypt, Part II: Specific Crowns Tweet Egypt Feature Story The Crowns of Egypt, Part IISpecific Crownsby Jimmy Dunn There were a variety of crowns in ancient Egypt, which might be categorized as those belonging to kings, those belonging to royal women and those of the gods. Of course, some of the crowns could be shared between these categories, particularly between kings and gods, and one must also remember that a woman who ruled Egypt, such as Hatshepsut, was actually considered a king, and not a queen, and so though a royal woman, she would have worn the crowns of kings. Also, keep in mind that, for symbolic purposes, there is very little difference between the terms, \"\"crown\"\" and \"\"headdress\"\". There are ten basic types of royal headdresses. The oldest of these, and perhaps the most prominent are the White Crown and the Red Crown, attested from the Predynastic Period onward. They were generally associated with the kingship of the Two Lands, and as such, have been used in debates concerning the earliest kings of the unified Upper and Lower Egypt. We believe that either the kings known as Aha or Narmer could have been one and the same as the legendary founder of Egypt, Menes. Today, a majority of scholars appear to associate Aha with Menes, but on the Narmer Pallet, the king is shown on one side wearing the White Crown and on the other wearing the Red Crown. It should also be noted that there were always a few variations in crowns that are not very well documented. The While and Red Crowns The White Crown, most commonly called hdt (The White, or Bright One, or as one of my assistants recently named it, the \"\"bowling pin crown\"\"), adorned the king as ruler of Upper (Southern) Egypt, while the Red Crown, most commonly called dsrt (The Red One) and nt (interpreted from the Middle Kingdom as referring to the goddess Neith), marked him as ruler of Lower Egypt."

They are a popular ergonomic upgrade for all types of users, especially gamers and typists. Individual mechanical switches beneath each key offer a number of benefits. The biggest one is an improved tactile response that can speed up typing. When you hear the click of a mechanical switch, you instantly know that your keystroke has registered. The most feather-fingered typists can use this satisfying click as a signal that they’ve depressed the key far enough, and can now move on to the next keystroke. After a bit of practice, you will be able to type paragraphs without bottoming out your keys. You’ll notice an immediate improvement in typing speed to match. Mechanical keyboards do have some downsides, though. They are loud and heavy, so they don’t work well in shared work spaces."

As the nesting season winds down and fall colors begin to appear, Goldfinches molt. That is, they replace their worn, tattered feathers witha set of fresh, new feathers. The appearance of males changes drastically at this time. The brilliant yellow body feathers are replaced by dull brownish plumes, and the striking black cap disappears. Females also molt, but their appearance doesn’t change. Goldfinches wearing drab winter plumage flock to bird feeders.

It is a passerine bird in the tit family Paridae. It is the state bird of both Maine and Massachusetts in the United States, and the provincial bird of New Brunswick in Canada. It is well known for its capacity to lower its body temperature during cold winter nights as well as its good spatial memory to relocate the caches where it stores food, and its boldness near humans (sometimes feeding from the hand).

[ 2] The American Ornithologists' Union has treated Poecile as a distinct genus for some time. The genus name Poecile has often been treated as feminine (giving the species name ending atricapilla ); however, this was not specified by the original genus author Johann Jakob Kaup, and under the ICZN, the genus name must therefore be treated by default as masculine, giving the name ending atricapillus. [ 3]At one time the black-capped chickadee was considered by some to be conspecific with the willow tit of Eurasia, due to their very similar appearance. This is reflected in an older version of the Peterson Field Guide for the Birds of Britain and Europe, which states \"\"N Am. Black-Capped Chickadee\"\" as an alternate name for the willow tit."

Man was most carefully taught that the symbol itself was not to be worshipped; the symbol was only a picture to keep his mind from wandering. He was carefully taught that there was only One Deity, but that One Deity had many attributes which looked after health and strength, rain and sunshine, crops; in fact, after the whole welfare of mankind. In the beginning three symbols only were used. When these were understood, they were compounded and others added, and as time grew so did the number of symbols, also their complexity, until we come down to Egypt about 3,000 or 4,000 years ago, when there was such a riot of symbols scarcely one temple understood the meaning of half the symbols used in another.p. 119The three original symbols which I have referred to are: The Circle, The Equilateral Triangle and The Square. THE CIRCLE.--The Circle is a picture of the Sun and was the symbol of the Infinite One. As it embraced all of His attributes it was the Monotheistic Symbol."

Now that this has changed, however, I'm curious to see if anyone has analysed what the optimal armor configurations now are? Presumably it will be some combination of protection enchantments and other enchantments, going by the description of how enchantments work now on the wiki. Or, are we forced to choose one or more types of protection to max out? ( This would be the case if there are not enough total enchantments possible to max out all areas). If this is the case, it would be great to see some analysis of how to optimise that choice as well. I've looked around but haven't found any good mathcrafting on this question yet. Furthermore, beyond protection against taking damage, can someone include some explanation of the hidden utility bonuses? For instance, Blast Protection has been described in wiki sources as reducing the knockback effects from explosions, and Fire Protection is described as reducing burn time."

While this is a highly stylized painting, it does appear to represent a truly immense area of the night sky, about a quarter of the entire circumference. However, it also appears to represent another alternate perception rather than part of a continuing astronomical tradition of the Lascaux cave depictions. Figure 1.“Bull leaper” frieze from the palace at Knossos The bull itself appears around the portion of the sky that also contains Taurus and the buffalo mentioned on the Lascaux Cave page. However, the horns are curved rather than straight, and the horns of Taurus appear to correspond here to the bulls head, with Aldebaran as its nose and Alnath as its eye. This means that Orion is the figure holding the bull’s horns, in this case the belt of this first figure corresponds to the three \"\"belt of Orion\"\" stars. Just as Glyn-Jones says, the “leaper” would be Perseus. This means the figure on the other side with two outstretched arms corresponds to the constellation of Andromeda . This region of the night sky and some likely stars making up the pattern are shown in Figure 2 . There certainly is evidence for a direct link between this depiction and the Greek Perseus and Andromeda."

"text": "\"�Sulfites: Separating Fact from Fiction 1Paul Grotheer, Maurice Marshall, and Amy Simonne 2Introduction If you have a strong allergic reaction to sulfites you may already know some ways to avoid the substances. However, even with today's technology, food recalls due to undeclared sulfite (as a food ingredient) continue to occur in the United States. This publication will examine what sulfites are, sulfite sensitivity, safety issues related to sulfiting agents, and recommendations for sulfite-sensitive individuals. What are sulfites? Sulfites are inorganic salts that have antioxidant and preservative properties. Many compounds capable of producing sulfite, called sulfiting agents, have been used as food additives since antiquity to help prevent enzymatic and nonenzymatic browning; control growth of microorganisms; act as bleaching agents, antioxidants, or reducing agents; and carry out various other technical functions (Sapers 1993; Taylor et al. 1986). Examples of sulfiting agents include sulfur dioxide, sodium sulfate, sodium and potassium bisulfites, and metabisulfites. Specifically, sulfites are used on fruits and vegetable to prevent unpleasant browning, on shrimp and lobster to prevent melanosis, or “black spot”, in wines to discourage bacterial growth, in dough as a conditioner, and to bleach certain food starches and cherries. In addition, sulfites are used in pharmaceuticals to maintain the stability and potency of some medications (Knodel 1997; Papazian 1996)."

The ban, which would apply to both food markets and restaurants, was proposed by the F. D. A. with the approval of the Office of Management and Budget, which reviews all regulatory actions for the Reagan Administration. The proposal is expected to take effect after a 30-day period for public comment. The ban would not affect other foods that now contain the sulfite preservatives, including frozen potatoes, seafood, dried fruits, wine and beer. In announcing the ban, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, Margaret M. Heckler, referred to the use of sulfites to keep fruits and vegetables fresh-looking. '' Most Americans have been unaware of this practice,'' she said. Reactions to Preservative William Grigg, a spokesman for the F. D. A., said the agency had proposed the ban after receiving findings from the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology, a nongovernmental organization that studied the matter. The findings, Mr. Grigg said, described ''500 alleged adverse reactions, including 13 deaths, possibly associated with sulfite treatments, mostly of food served in restaurants. '''' Sulfites had been used for many years in dried fruits,'' Mr. Grigg said, ''but only recently they began to be used to keep fresh fruits and vegetables from browning. '' The problem grew more widespread, Mr. Grigg said, with the increase in popularity of salad bars. ''"

"text": "Artificial Food Preservatives By Lisa Tsakos (1) Comment Artificial food preservatives are a group of chemical substances which are used in food production to slow down spoilage, discoloration, or contamination by bacteria and other disease forming organisms or pathogens. Unlike artificial flavors, most artificial food preservatives are categorized as food additives, defined as “any substance, the intended use of which results directly or indirectly, in its becoming a component or otherwise affecting the characteristics of food” and their use, therefore, is regulated unlike artificial flavoring agents. Do we need artificial food preservatives? The main categories of artificial preservatives are antimicrobials, antioxidants, and chelating agents. Antimicrobials preservatives help to prevent the overgrowth of bacteria and mold. These include benzoates [found in many beverages], sorbates [help to prevent mold, yeast and fungi growth in foods and beverages], proprionates [mold inhibitors used in baked goods], nitrates and nitrites [help to prevent bacterial overgrowth, most notably Clostridium botulinum ]. Common antioxidants used to help prevent discoloration include sulfites, synthetic vitamin E, C, butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), and butylated hydroxytoluene ( BHT ). Chelating agents like EDTA, polyphosphates and citric acid help to bind metals, usually copper and iron to prevent the metals from oxidizing and speeding up spoilage. Are artificial food preservatives safe? Proving the safety of artificial compounds like colors, flavors, sweeteners, and preservatives can be challenging."

"text": "Loren Cordain, Ph D, Professor Emeritus Posted on August 18, 2014Alcohol Consumption during the Paleolithic Era In all of my popular Paleo Diet books including The Paleo Diet, The Paleo Diet for Athletes, The Paleo Diet Cookbook and The Paleo Answer, I have always suggested that moderate alcohol consumption is consistent with the health goals of the Paleo Diet, despite our research 1 showing that virtually all humans living as hunter gatherers during the Paleolithic era likely did not consume alcohol (ethanol). Our foraging ancestors simply did not have the technological means to manufacture this compound and consume it on a regular basis. As our species made the transition from the Paleolithic era (2.5 million years ago to 10,000 years ago) to the Neolithic era (10,000 to 5,000 years ago), there is no doubt that the knowledge to produce fermented beverages containing low concentrations of ethanol became common place. An extensive ethnographic literature demonstrates non-westernized, indigenous people worldwide produced alcoholic beverages with only minimal technology. 2 – 5 However, the alcohol concentration in their beverages was and is typically low. Distilled spirits did not exist. 4 Accordingly, the risk of alcohol abuse and diseases of alcoholism was likely low to non-existent. Natural fermentation can spontaneously occur in fruit juices, fruit mashes or fruit purees when airborne or other environmental yeasts contaminate the fruit products and subsequently metabolize the sugars in the fruit into alcohol. If the fermentation process (spoilage) is allowed to continue, the waste products of yeast metabolism of fruit sugars produce carbon dioxide and ethanol, which of course is the element (ethanol) desired in alcoholic beverages. Fruits high in sugar allow the yeast to produce beverages with higher alcoholic (ethanol) concentrations, but eventually increasing ethanol concentrations kill the very yeasts that produce it."

By Wendy Priesnitz, Editor Photo © Shutterstock Q: I have been having some odd reactions to some foods and drinks (like dried fruits, wine, and gluten-free breads) and my husband thinks I might have a sulfite allergy. He says they’re sprayed on fruits and vegetables. What can you tell me about this? A: Sulfites are a group of sulfur-based compounds that occur naturally in many foods and may be added to some foods and pharmaceuticals as a preservative. The U. S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) estimates that one percent of the population is sensitive to sulfites and says that many of those people have asthma. Rather than being an allergy, sulfite sensitivity is a metabolic problem, in the same way that some people can’t digest milk products because they have a lactase deficiency. In the case of sulfite sensitivity, there may be a deficiency of an enzyme called sulfite oxidase, which breaks down sulfites with the help of the trace element molybdenum. Reactions Sulfites are not currently thought to be carcinogenic or mutagenic. Sensitivity can develop at any age, varies in intensity among different people, and can occur quite quickly after exposure."

( More information)Excess molybdenum intake causes fatal copper deficiency diseases in grazing animals. Their rumen is the site of high sulfide generation, and the interaction of molybdenum with sulfur results in the formation of thiomolybdates. Tetrathiomolybdate, a thiomolybdate with four sulfur atoms, can form complexes with copper preventing its absorption and blocking the activity of copper-dependent enzymes. ( More information)In humans, tetrathiomolybdate therapy has been developed for Wilson's disease, a genetic disease in which the accumulation of copper in tissues leads to liver and brain damage. More recently, tetrathiomolybdate use has been explored for the treatment of cancer and inflammatory diseases. ( More information)Mutations in the molybdenum cofactor biosynthetic pathway lead to the combined deficiency of all molybdenum-dependent enzymes. Molybdenum cofactor deficiency Type A is due to mutations in the MOCS1 gene, while Type B deficiency is caused by mutations in MOCS2. Both Type A and Type B deficiencies result in the loss of sulfite oxidase activity, also observed in isolated sulfite oxidase deficiency and characterized by severe neurologic abnormalities in affected patients.

"text": "\"Article Top 10 Food Additives to Avoid Dr Joseph Mercola Nov 23, 2010 Comments698KViews Print Save Food additives have been used for centuries to enhance the appearance and flavor of food and prolong shelf life. However, do these food additives really “add” any value to your food? Food additives find their way into our foods to help ease processing, packaging, and storage, but how do we know which food additives are in that box of macaroni and cheese, and why does it have such a long shelf life? A typical American household spends about 90 percent of their food budget on processed foods and in doing so they get exposed to a plethora of artificial food additives, many of which can have serious consequences to your health. Some food additives are worse than others. Here’s a list of the top food additives to avoid:1. Artificial Sweeteners Aspartame, (E951) more popularly known as Nutrasweet and Equal, is found in foods labeled \"\"diet\"\" or \"\"sugar-free\"\". Aspartame is believed to be carcinogenic and accounts for more reports of adverse reactions than all other foods and food additives combined. Aspartame is not your friend. Aspartame is a neurotoxin and carcinogen."

Articles On Drug Allergies Drug Allergy Symptoms Salicylate Sulfite Penicillin Aspirin Sulfites are chemicals that are in some foods, either naturally or as additives. It’s rare, but some people (about 1 in 100, according to the FDA) are sensitive to these compounds. Their reaction can range from mild to life-threatening. Sulfites aren’t used on most fresh foods, but they’re still in some cooked and processed ones. And they can also happen naturally in the process of making wine and beer. If you’re sensitive to them, you need to avoid them. Always check labels on all food packages. When you eat out, ask your chef or server if sulfites are used or added to food before or during preparation.

Before I go any further, let me reiterate that you need to do what’s right for you. No one is watching over your shoulder, and just as all food is intensely personal, so too is this challenge. Likewise, if you feel you need to make any exceptions, by all means feel free to do so. Just make sure it’s a deliberate choice whenever possible. My definition may not match your definition — and that’s okay. In fact, I encourage disagreement and discussion, since that’s the best way for us to learn together. I also recognize that my definition isn’t perfect. My goal here isn’t “perfection” — it’s more to help spark a dialogue, increasing awareness about how our food is made, what we’re putting into our bodies, and how we relate to our food. ( I’m also hoping to shed that last bit of pudge and finally get my six-pack abs, but that’s another story. )"

Where to look for food additives on a product label? When buying groceries, these additives are listed (if it’s given by the law) on the food product’s packaging under “INGREDIENTS: ” or “ CONTAINS: ” section, usually next to “Nutrition Information” but the code numbers or names of these additives can be printed on in a small font. In my opinion placement of the text can be sometimes somewhat hidden or perhaps even misleading. Which isn’t right. Any dangerous additives added in the food, if the product contains any, really should be listed visibly (those people who experience health issues and unpleasant reactions prefer having them labeled on their food packs for instance as “ Nasty Additives “.330 and E330 Citric Acid How about the Citric Acid E330 or 330?

"text": "\"Wine Basics Wine Drinks & Cocktails Understanding Wine Sulfites By Stacy Slinkard Updated 12/30/17Share Pin Email Getty Images/BSIPWine sulfites are naturally occurring at low levels in all wines, and are one of the thousands of chemical by-products created during the fermentation process. However, sulfites are also added by the winemaker to preserve and protect the wine from bacteria and yeast-laden invasions. For some, sulfur allergies may be associated with headaches and stuffy sinuses after a glass or two of wine. What Are Sulfites and Where Do They Come From? Sulfur dioxide (SO2), or sulfites as they are best known in the wine world, is a chemical compound that occurs naturally at low levels during the process of wine fermentation. It is also added by many winemakers during the fermentation stage of winemaking to protect and preserve the wine's character, flavor, and color. Sulfur dioxide is both antimicrobial and antioxidant in nature -- making it one of the top allies available to vintners, as it impedes the oxidation of the wine and prevents it from fermenting its way to vinegar. Sulfur dioxide is also utilized in most wineries as part of the housekeeping regime - harsh chemicals (think bleach) would be a tough sell as a cleaning option for fermentation tanks, equipment, hoses, valves and other process hardware so sulfur dioxide is often the cleaner of choice. \"\" Contains Sulfites\"\": What's in a Label? Current FDA regulations in the United States require that all wines, both domestic and imports, that contain 10+ ppm of sulfur dioxide state \"\"Contains sulfites\"\" on the label."

They are mostly active during dawn, dusk and at night time and avoid people and areas with human activities. [ Top]Territories Mountain Lions are solitary animals that establish territories which they mark and guard. Males establish larger territories than females and a male’s territory may overlap that of several females. Territories range from 40 to 80 square miles (100 - 200 sq km) for males and 20 to 30 square miles (50 - 80 sq km) for females. A male’s home range only rarely overlaps that of another male but female’s home range may overlap another female’s. In fact, it is common for females within an area to be related as daughters establish their home range adjacent to that of their mother’s and share portions of it. Females will disperse based on Mountain Lion density. Female subadults will move long distances until finding an unoccupied area or will displace another female from her territory. Females will decrease their territory size when they give birth and slowly increase it again as the cubs become old enough to accompany them."

Antlers serve a vital purpose in deer reproduction. Antlers also provide many details about a deer's health and age. The condition of the antlers can also affect when a deer sheds. Antler Development Antlers are bone tissue structures that grow from two base points, called pedicles, on top of a deer's head. As the antler grows, a soft tissue, known as velvet, containing veins and arteries covers the antlers and feeds nutrients to the growing bone structure. Deer grow antlers beginning in late April or early May and remain in a growth period through late August or early September. Antlers usually occur only on male deer."

"text": "\"White-tailed Deer Whitetails, extremely adaptable animals, can live in a variety of habitats; the Texas Hill Country is home to about half of the state's more than 4 million deer. A large conspicuous tail, usually ten inches or more in length, gives the white-tailed deer its common name. This tail, which is held erect when the animal is nervous or frightened, serves as a warning \"\"flag\"\" to other deer nearby. Whitetails are extremely adaptable animals and can live in a variety of habitats from pine and oak woodlands to meadows and even sand hills. Wherever they live, they are considered resident animals and have restricted home ranges. Studies in Texas have shown that most white-tails spend their entire lives within a mile and a half to three miles of their birth place, traveling farther only during the breeding seasons. Woody vegetation is a basic habitat requirement, and deer eat mostly browse (leaves, twigs, young shoots of woody plants, and vines) and forbs (weeds and other broadleaf flowering plants). They eat very little grass, and usually only when it is green and tender. Acorns also are an important food when they are available. During the first few months of life a fawn usually remains hidden, camouflaged by its spotted coat, and does not wander far from the spot where it was born."

The family is quite large, and includes caribou, elk, moose, muntjacs and wapiti. Cervids are the second most diverse family after bovids (antelopes, bison, buffalo, goats, sheep, etc.). There are about 50 species, but there is some disagreement about cervid classification. According to the University of Michigan's Animal Diversity Web (ADW), no single well-supported phylogenetic and taxonomic history has been established. Size & description Deer species range from very large to very small. The smallest deer is the Southern pudu, according to the ARKive project. It weighs only abbout 20 lbs. ( 9 kilograms) and gets to be only about 14 inches (36 centimeters) tall when fully grown. [ Related: Oh, You Deer: Newborn Mini Fawn Is Seriously Cute]The largest deer is the moose."

"text": "\"White-tailed Deer Wildlife Note PDFThe white-tailed deer, Odocoileus virginianus, was so named because the underside of its tail is covered with white hair, and when it runs it often holds its tail erect so that the white undersurface is visible. Whitetails belong to the Cervidae family, which in North America includes the elk, moose, caribou and mule deer. Cervids are split-hoofed mammals with no incisor teeth in the front of the upper jaw. They are classed as ruminant animals, meaning they have a four-chambered stomach and frequently chew a \"\"cud.\"\" Adult male whitetails grow and shed a set of antlers each year. On rare occasions, females also grow antlers. Whitetails are the most widely distributed large animal in North America. They are found throughout most of the continental United States, southern Canada, Mexico, Central America and northern portions of South America as far south as Peru. White-tailed deer are common throughout Pennsylvania. The species is absent from much of the western United States, including Nevada, Utah and California (though its close relatives, the mule deer and black-tailed deer, can be found there)."

Even now 'deer' include quite a diverse group of species. Some general characters are: - They are all ruminants, so they have four stomachs and chew the cud. - All are mammals, and members of the Cervidae family (with a few exceptions such as the muntjac and water deer). - Male deer of all species grow antlers which are shed and replaced each year, with the exception of the Chinese water deer which only have tusks. Females caribou/reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) may also have them, although the percentage of females with antlers varies widely between regions. - A male is usually called a 'buck', and a females a 'doe'. For larger species, often the male is a 'stag' and the female a 'hind'. The young are usually called calves or fawns. - Nearly all deer have lithe but compact bodies and powerful legs. -"

"text": "\"white-tailed deer Odocoileus virginianus What do they look like? White-tailed deer have different colors depending on the season and their location. Usually they have greyish fur in winter and reddish-brown fur in summer. They have white patches of fur on their face and lower legs. The tail is brownish-red above and white below. When startled the deer lift this tail as they bound away, making the white patch prominent. Males have antlers that begin growing in April or May with a layer of velvety fur on them. In August and September the antlers shed this velvety covering for the mating season. The antlers fall off in January and are re-grown the next year. With each year of age a male will grow larger antlers with more points."

"text": "Difference Between Deer Ticks and Wood Ticks Deer ticks and wood ticks are broadly descriptive common names that are often used to refer to four species of ticks. Deer ticks usually refer to the blacklegged tick (Ixodes scapularis) and the western blacklegged tick (Ixodes pacificus), while wood tick refers to the American dog tick (Dermacentor variabilis) and the Rocky Mountain wood tick (Dermacentor andersoni). The common name deer tick is somewhat antiquated, but is still a frequently used name that is now correctly referred to as blacklegged tick. WOOD TICKS Both species of wood ticks are members of the family Ixodidae, the hard ticks. They are dark brown in color with silver-gray or whitish coloring on their back. Both have a dorsal plate on their back called the scutum, and their mouthparts are visible when viewed from above the tick. The males are slightly smaller than the females in the adult stage. Both species have six legs in the larval stage; eight legs in the nymphal and adult stages; and undergo a life cycle that consists of four stages: eggs, larvae, nymphs and adults. Neither of these ticks is considered a vector of Lyme disease, but they do transmit other diseases and both species are known to cause tick paralysis, a condition triggered by a toxin that is released from the tick’s salivary glands when taking a blood meal. The American dog tick is the primary tick vector of Rocky Mountain spotted fever in the eastern United States and can also transmit tularemia."

[ 2] It has also been introduced to New Zealand, Cuba, Jamaica, Hispaniola, Puerto Rico, Bahamas, Lesser Antilles, and some countries in Europe, such as Finland, the Czech Republic, and Serbia. [ 3] [4] In the Americas, it is the most widely distributed wild ungulate. In North America, the species is widely distributed east of the Rocky Mountains, but elsewhere, it is mostly replaced by the black-tailed or mule deer ( Odocoileus hemionus ). In western North America, it is found in aspen parklands and deciduous river bottomlands within the central and northern Great Plains, and in mixed deciduous riparian corridors, river valley bottomlands, and lower foothills of the northern Rocky Mountain regions from South Dakota and Wyoming to northeastern British Columbia, including the Montana Valley and Foothill grasslands. The conversion of land adjacent to the northern Rockies into agriculture use and partial clear-cutting of coniferous trees (resulting in widespread deciduous vegetation) has been favorable to the white-tailed deer and has pushed its distribution to as far north as Fort St. John, British Columbia. Populations of deer around the Great Lakes have also expanded their range northwards, due to conversion of land to agricultural uses favoring more deciduous vegetation, and local caribou and moose populations. The westernmost population of the species, known as the Columbian white-tailed deer, once was widespread in the mixed forests along the Willamette and Cowlitz River valleys of western Oregon and southwestern Washington, but today its numbers have been considerably reduced, and it is classified as near-threatened.

"text": "Implementing Private and Protected Members in Java Script April 9, 2014Privacy has been a complicated issue throughout Java Script’s history. While it’s always been possible to meet even the most stringent privacy needs (the myriad of compile-to-js languages proves this), the extraneous ceremony required to really do it right is often too much of a turn-off for most developers — especially to those coming from other languages where privacy is built in. In Java Script we like to prefix our private members with an underscore to let other developers know not to touch them. In fact, many of the more popular Java Script style guides ( airbnb, Dojo, aloha) recommend this. But unless you have a way to enforce such a convention, it can never really be trusted. Thought leaders in the Java Script community have long warned against fake privacy. Douglas Crockford has this to say on the subject: Do not use _ (underbar) as the first character of a name. It is sometimes used to indicate privacy, but it does not actually provide privacy. If privacy is important, use the forms that provide private members. Avoid conventions that demonstrate a lack of competence."

Please improve it by verifying the claims made and adding inline citations. Statements consisting only of original research should be removed. ( June 2015) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)In object-oriented programming, a class is an extensible program-code-template for creating objects, providing initial values for state ( member variables) and implementations of behavior (member functions or methods ). [ 1] [2] In many languages, the class name is used as the name for the class (the template itself), the name for the default constructor of the class (a subroutine that creates objects), and as the type of objects generated by instantiating the class; these distinct concepts are easily conflated. [ 2]When an object is created by a constructor of the class, the resulting object is called an instance of the class, and the member variables specific to the object are called instance variables, to contrast with the class variables shared across the class. In some languages, classes are only a compile-time feature (new classes cannot be declared at runtime), while in other languages classes are first-class citizens, and are generally themselves objects (typically of type Class or similar). In these languages, a class that creates classes is called a metaclass.

In C++, locales are represented by an object of the locale class. Each of these locale objects contains all the information needed to use a set of culture-dependent features. But locale objects do not contain the features directly themselves as member functions: instead, a locale object contains information about which facet objects it selects, and is each one of these facet objects that implements specific features as member functions. This allows for features that are common to several locales to be shared by using the same facet objects, and makes them extensible, allowing custom facets to be added to locale objects. Facets are divided into six standard categories:category facet member functionscollate collate compare, hash, transformctype ctype is, narrow, scan_is, scan_not, tolower, toupper, widencodecvt always_noconv, encoding, in, length, max_length, out, unshiftmonetarymoneypunct curr_symbol, decimal_point, frac_digits, grouping, negative_sign, neg_format, positive_sign, pos_format, thousands_sepmoney_get getmoney_put putnumericnumpunct decimal_point, falsename, grouping, thousands_sep, truenamenum_get getnum_put puttime time_get date_order, get_date, get_monthname, get_time, get_weekday, get_year (and get, since C++11)time_put putmessages messages close, get, open Locale objects can be constructed entirely from a name, taking all the characteristics of that named locale, or they can mix facet categories of different locales (see class locale constructor for more info).

In the first part, \"\"Separate Compilation,\"\" we discuss how a C++ program can be distributed across a number of files so that when some parts of the program change, only those parts need to be recompiled, and the separate parts can be more easily reused in other applications. In the second section, we discuss namespaces, which are a way of allowing you to reuse the names of classes, functions, and other items by qualifying the names to indicate different uses of the names. Namespaces divide your code into sections, so that the different sections may reuse the same names with differing meanings. It is a kind of local meaning for names that is more general than local variables. Separate Compilation Your \"\"if\"\" is the only peacemaker; much virtue in \"\"if. \"\"— William Shakespeare, As You Like It C++ has facilities for dividing a program into parts that are kept in separate files, compiled separately, and then linked together when (or just before) the program is run.

If you do not have any previous experience with object-oriented (OO) programming, you may want to consult an introductory course on it or at least a tutorial of some sort so that you have a grasp of the basic concepts. However, here is small introduction of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) to bring you at speed −Overview of OOP Terminology Class − A user-defined prototype for an object that defines a set of attributes that characterize any object of the class. The attributes are data members (class variables and instance variables) and methods, accessed via dot notation. Class variable − A variable that is shared by all instances of a class. Class variables are defined within a class but outside any of the class's methods. Class variables are not used as frequently as instance variables are. Data member − A class variable or instance variable that holds data associated with a class and its objects."

Objects are instances of a class. The methods and variables that constitute a class are called members of the class. Class Definition A class definition starts with the keyword Class followed by the class name; and the class body, ended by the End Class statement.

For example, the Point class can be type-defined as follows:typedef Point Coordinate; Coordinate location;As you would declare an array of variables, you can also declare an array of objects and manipulate each member of the array as if it were a regular variable. To do this, type the name of the class, followed by a valid C++ name for the variable, and followed by a dimension included in square brackets. Here is an example:#include <iostream> using namespace std; struct Point { char Letter; int x; int y; }; int main () { Point coordinates [4]; return 0; }Using the typedef keyword, you can create a common name that would represent an array of objects. This can be done as follows:#include <iostream> using namespace std; struct Point { char Letter; int x; int y; }; int main () { typedef Point Points [4]; Points coordinates; return 0; }In this case, the name Points means the same thing as declaring an array of 4 Point variables.

If the static member variables are public, we can access them directly using the class name and the scope resolution operator. But what if the static member variables are private? Consider the following example:12345678910111213class Something {private:static int s_value;};int Something :: s_value = 1; // initializer, this is okay even though s_value is private since it's a definitionint main () {// how do we access Something::s_value since it is private? } In this case, we can’t access Something::s_value directly from main (), because it is private. Normally we access private members through public member functions. While we could create a normal public member function to access s_value, we’d then need to instantiate an object of the class type to use the function! We can do better. It turns out that we can also make functions static. Like static member variables, static member functions are not attached to any particular object."

Download source code - 6.87 KBIntroduction Once you start to optimize your code, read about patterns, and so on, you realize it is an interesting idea using static data members to keep a single copy of something you may use in all the instances of your class (instead of having a copy in each object). Sometimes those static data members are very simple, like constants or others, but when that information gets more and more complex, then you realize on the limitations of the C++ language: Static data members must be initialized outside the class body, generally in *.cpp files, except const integral-type static data members. It is a great inconvenience for inline classes and templates defined in one *.h file. C++ doesn't have static constructors, as Java or C# does, so you usually have to initialize the static data members one by one (independently). This is a limitation because you may want to initialize several static data members in the same loop or algorithm, for example. I decided to workaround both limitations, and here is the result. Background I previously discoursed the first limitation in this topic at Stack Overflow: static constructors in C++? need to initialize private static objects. About the second limitation, it is interesting to read this other topic: What is the rationale for not having static constructors in C++?."

"text": "Section 8.5 Gene Replacement and Transgenic Animals The goal of modern molecular cell biology is nothing short of understanding the biochemical, cellular, and organismal functions of all the proteins encoded in the genome. In the preceding sections, we have discussed the isolation and analysis of mutants, the genetic mapping of mutations, and finally the isolation and cloning of mutation -defined genes. This approach can provide valuable information about the molecular mechanisms underlying the cellular processes affected by the original mutations and the in vivo functions of the normal proteins encoded by the affected genes. As discussed in Chapter 7, however, many genes have been identified based on the biochemical properties of their encoded protein, the sequence similarity of the encoded protein with proteins of known function, or their interesting patterns of expression in development. In the absence of mutant forms of such genes, their in vivo functions may be unclear. By mutating a specific gene in vitro and then replacing the normal copy in the genome with a mutant form, scientists can assess its in vivo function. This technique, referred to as gene-targeted knockout, or simply “knockout,” is in essence the reverse of the approach described in the previous sections. The process of isolating normal genes to be mutated will be greatly simplified as sequencing of the genomes of several model organisms and of the human genome progresses (Chapter 7). Whether starting from a normal protein or sequenced genome, this approach can be summarized as follows: Other techniques permit the introduction of foreign genes or altered forms of an endogenous gene into an organism. For the most part, these techniques do not result in replacement of the endogenous gene, but rather in the integration of additional copies of it."

All this was learned without having a single gene purified. A full understanding of a gene, or the entire set of genes in a genome, requires that they be isolated and then studied intensively. Once a gene is “in hand”, in principal one can determine both its biochemical structures and its function (s) in an organism. One of the goals of biochemistry and molecular genetics is to assign particular functions to individual or composite structures. This chapter covers some of the techniques commonly used to isolate genes and illustrates some of the analyses that can be done on isolated genes. Methods to purify some abundant proteins were developed early in the 20th century, and some of the experiments on the fine structure of the gene (colinearity of gene and protein for trp A and tryptophan synthase) used microbial genetics and proteins sequencing. However, methods to isolate genes were not developed until the 1960’s, and the were applicable to only a few genes. All this changed in the late 1970’s with the development of recombinant DNA technology, or molecular cloning.

In 1995, Swiss researchers identified a gene that functions as a master switch to trigger the development of the eye in Drosophila. A similar gene triggers eye development in mammals. Developmental biologists are discovering remarkable similarities in the mechanisms that shape diverse organisms. While geneticists were advancing from Mendel’s laws to an understanding of the molecular basis of inheritance, developmental biologists were focusing on embryology. Embryology is the study of the stages of development leading from fertilized egg to fully formed organism. In recent years, the concepts and tools of molecular genetics have reached a point where a real synthesis of genetics and developmental biology has been possible. When the primary research goal is to understand broad biological principles, the organism chosen for study is called a model organism. Researchers select model organisms that are representative of a larger group, suitable for the questions under investigation, and easy to grow in the lab. For study of the connections between genes and development, suitable model organisms have short generation times and small genomes that are suitable for genetic analysis."

Previous article Next article Text From worms to man, the development of distinct morphology by different parts of the body is regulated by clusters of homeobox genes (HOM-C genes), which are homologous to the homeotic genes of Drosophila [1]. These genes provide a positional code that specifies the developmental fate of cells in different positions along the anteroposterior axis. In the Drosophila embryo, the homeotic genes are expressed in over-lapping domains, such that different segments express characteristic combinations of homeotic gene products ( Figure 1 ). These gene products are DNA-binding proteins that are thought to regulate sets of target genes differentially to produce segment-specific morphologies. It is easy to envisage how combinations of transcription factors with different DNA-binding specificities could activate segment-specific sets of target genes. There is, however, a problem: the homeotic gene products have rather similar DNA-binding specificities in vitro . So how do the homeotic gene products have the specificity required for their roles as components of a combinatorial code? It is clear that the different homeotic gene products have distinct functions in vivo : the ectopic expression of a particular gene, for example, has characteristic phenotypic consequences ( Figure 1 ). Mapping of the regions of these proteins responsible for the specificity in vivo has implicated sequences in, or very close to, the homeodomain itself. As the DNA-binding specificities of the individual homeodomains are so similar, attention has recently focused on the possibility that protein–protein interactions explain the distinct activities of the different proteins in vivo."

"text": "\"Do complex organisms have more genes than simpler organisms? Now that researchers can sequence whole genomes and have done so for a number of organisms, they know that many vertebrates have only about twice as many genes as invertebrates, and many of these are the result of duplication of existing genes rather than development of new ones. But if there are not that many new genes, what is responsible for the incredible diversity in plant and animal species? The simple answer to this question is that eukaryotes have developed a more complex way of controlling expression of their existing genes than prokaryotes. This system of expression control relies on a group of proteins known as transcription factors (TFs), and it allows eukaryotes to alter their cell types and growth patterns in a variety of ways. TFs are not solely responsible for gene regulation; eukaryotes also rely on cell signaling, RNAsplicing, si RNA control mechanisms , and chromatin modifications . However, TFs that bind to cis -regulator DNA sequences are responsible for either positively or negatively influencing the transcription of specific genes, essentially determining whether a particular gene will be turned \"\"on\"\" or \"\"off\"\" in an organism.

Following intramuscular injection, the plasmid that persists is extrachromosomal and integration into host DNA, if it occurs at all, is negligible. However, new technologies for improving DNA delivery could increase the frequency of integration. In the present study, we tested the effect of electroporation on plasmid uptake and potential integration following intramuscular injection in mice, using a plasmid containing the mouse erythropoietin gene. Electroporation increased plasmid tissue levels by approximately six- to 34-fold. Using a quantitative gel-purification assay for integration, electroporation was found to markedly increase the level of plasmid associated with high-molecular-weight genomic DNA. To confirm integration and identify the insertion sites, we developed a new assay – referred to as repeat-anchored integration capture (RAIC) PCR – that is capable of detecting rare integration events in a complex mixture in vivo. Using this assay, we identified four independent integration events. Sequencing of the insertion sites suggested a random integration process, but with short segments of homology between the vector breakpoint and the insertion site in three of the four cases. This is the first definitive demonstration of integration of plasmid DNA into genomic DNA following injection in vivo."

Over the course of several thousand years, human beings have cataloged and named them all. But only 12 of them are particularly famous and continue to play an active role in our astrological systems. These are known as the zodiac signs, 12 constellations that correspond to the different months of the year. Each of these occupies a sector of the sky which makes up 30° of the ecliptic, starting at the vernal equinox – one of the intersections of the ecliptic with the celestial equator. The order of these astrological signs is Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces. Here are all the zodiac signs and their dates. If your birthday falls within one of those date ranges, that’s your zodiac sign. Granted, modern science has shown astrology to be an ancient fallacy, a way of connecting patterns in celestial movements to events and behaviors here on Earth."

"text": "\"Types of Galaxies Galaxies come in many different shapes and sizes ranging from dwarf galaxies with as few as 10 7 stars, to giants with 10 12 stars. Galaxies range from 1,000 to 100,000 parsecs in diameter and are usually separated by millions of parsecs. Edwin Hubble invented a classification of galaxies and grouped them into four classes: spirals, barred spirals, ellipticals and irregulars. He classified spiral and barred spiral galaxies further according to the size of their central bulge and the texture of their arms. A large central bulge and broad central arms corresponds to a, while a small central bulge and well defined spiral arms corresponds to c. The Hubble classification, often called the tuning fork diagram, is still used today to describe galaxies. Hubble's original classification of galaxy types was published in 1936 in a book called \"\" The Realm of the Nebulae \"\". Since then several people have suggested modifications and additions to his original scheme, but the basic idea of his \"\"tuning fork diagram\"\" has continued to be useful for astronomers. Below is a diagrammatic representation of one commonly used simple modification of his diagram. Elliptical galaxies (on the left) look roughly egg-shaped and are relatively featureless. All that can usually be detected is a decrease in surface brightness as one move outwards from the center of the galaxy."

Many scientists now believe that a black hole, the remains of a massive star, lies at the center of many galaxies. Galaxies are as plentiful in the universe as grains of sand on a beach. The galaxy that contains our solar system is called the Milky Way. The Milky Way is part of a cluster of some 30 galaxies known as the Local Group, and the Local Group is part of a local supercluster that includes many clusters. Although astronomers are not yet sure how galaxies formed and evolved, the process must have occurred quickly very early in the history of the universe. The age of the oldest galaxies appears to be about the same age as the universe, which is estimated to be 10 to 13 billion years old. Words to Know Barred spiral galaxy: A spiral galaxy in which the spiral arms start at the end of a central bar structure rather than the nucleus.

This produces a visible atmosphere or coma, and sometimes also a tail. These phenomena are due to the effects of solar radiation and the solar wind acting upon the nucleus of the comet. Comet nuclei range from a few hundred metres to tens of kilometres across and are composed of loose collections of ice, dust, and small rocky particles. The coma may be up to 15 times the Earth's diameter, while the tail may stretch one astronomical unit. If sufficiently bright, a comet may be seen from the Earth without the aid of a telescope and may subtend an arc of 30° (60 Moons) across the sky. Comets have been observed and recorded since ancient times by many cultures. Comets usually have highly eccentric elliptical orbits, and they have a wide range of orbital periods, ranging from several years to potentially several millions of years. Short-period comets originate in the Kuiper belt or its associated scattered disc, which lie beyond the orbit of Neptune. Long-period comets are thought to originate in the Oort cloud, a spherical cloud of icy bodies extending from outside the Kuiper belt to halfway to the nearest star."

"text": "\"500 Billion --A Universe of Galaxies: Some Older than Milky Way June 10, 2013he Hubble Space Telescope site estimates there are hundreds of billions of galaxies in the universe. A recent German super-computer simulation estimates that the number may be as high as 500 billion, with many older than the Milky Way. Common obervational wisdom among astronomers is that there are 17 billion Earth-sized planets in our galaxy. They don't yet know how many of these worlds are in habitable zones, but the implications of this discovery are astounding. Simply put: If there are 17 billion Earth-sized worlds in our galaxy alone, it's clear that the Universe has the potential to be teeming with life. A team of scientists lead by Francois Fressin of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, used the latest data from NASA's Kepler mission to find that one in six stars have \"\"a planet 0.8 - 1.25 times the size of Earth in an orbit of 85 days or less.\"\" Extrapolated out to the Universe as a whole, the potential number becomes mind-boggling. With the advent of powerful space infrared telescopes like the Spitzer Space Telescope and the (recently deceased) Herschel Space Telescope, astronomers have been able to study the properties of dust in galaxies so remote that their light has been traveling towards us for over ninety percent of the age of the universe. That these distant objects are detected at all is because they are very bright in the infrared, and they are bright because they are making huge numbers of stars whose light warms the dust that in turn radiates at infrared wavelengths. In the image below A field of distant galaxies as seen at long infrared wavelengths over a region about one-third the size of the moon."

E. van den Bosch (MPIA).“You cannot, in human experience, rush into the light. You have to go through the twilight into the broadening day before the noon comes and the full sun is upon the landscape.” - Woodrow Wilson We know how most black holes in the Universe form: from the deaths of very massive stars (maybe 20 times the mass of our Sun and up), giving rise to black holes maybe three times our Sun’s mass and upwards. These stars burn through their fuel in their core more quickly than all other stars — in a matter of only a few million years — and when the core can burn no further, they collapse. And nothing inside, not the atoms, not the nuclei, not even the quarks and gluons, can stand up to gravitational collapse if there’s enough mass in there!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Vn J9p RR8-8By time a star gets up to around 100 solar masses or so, some really strange things begin to happen in the interior. In particular, the innermost core of the star gets so hot that a substantial fraction of the photons in there achieve energies above 511 ke V, which is a very important energy threshold. In particular, it’s high enough that when two photons run into one another, they can spontaneously produce electron-positron pairs!Image credit: NASA / CXC / M. Weiss."

Most of the objects we know of in space are contained within galaxies. They contain stars, planets, moons, comets, asteroids, nebulae, dust, neutron stars, and black holes. Many probably even contain large amounts of unseen dark matter. Since most of the space between galaxies is thought to be empty, a galaxy is essentially an oasis in space. Our own solar system is located within a galaxy. Our Sun is only one of over 100 billion stars in a galaxy called the Milky Way. The Milky Way is a gigantic spiral disk with a bright, central bulge.

"text": "Star Constellation Facts: Pisces, the Fish November 29, 2012 Peter Christoforou Star Constellations 0Alexander Jamieson’s Celestial Atlas (1822)Pisces (“the fish”) is a zodiac constellation that is shaped to symbolize two fish tied together with a rope. While it is the 14th largest constellation in the night sky, it is still a challenge to spot in the night sky with its brightest stars, Eta Piscium, a faint yellow giant located around 294 light years distant with a visual magnitude of just +3.62. Represents: Venus and Cupid The constellation is most commonly associated with Aphrodite (Venus) and her son Eros (Cupid), who transformed themselves into fish in order to escape the terrifying giant Typhon. The immortal monster had been sent by Gaia (mother earth) to punish the gods for defeating their predecessors, the Titans, and the story goes that before turning themselves into fish, they tied each other to a piece of rope at each end so they would not lose one another in the turbulence of the water. Location: Northern Constellation Pisces is a northern hemisphere constellation seen between latitudes +90° and -65°, and located in a region of the sky called “The Heavenly Waters”, or the “Sea”. The easternmost fish of the constellation can be found just beneath Andromeda, and the westernmost fish just below the Great Square of Pegasus, with the imaginary line connecting the two travelling southwards in the direction of Cetus. Best Seen: Autumn Although the constellation is located in the northern sky, it is bisected by the ecliptic, meaning that it is visible from both hemispheres at different times in the year. From the northern hemisphere, Pisces is best seen in autumn, and in the southern hemisphere in spring. The ancient Greeks also welcomed Pisces as a sign of improving weather, of the two fish, one sees the end of winter, the other the beginning of spring. Shape: “V”Pisces is 14th largest constellations, taking up an area of 889 square degrees in the northern sky."

And in 100g it contains 567 calories. Peanuts have been recognized as a protein source since peanut butter became sought after at the time of World War II when meat was not readily available. A one-ounce serving, about a handful, is considered an excellent source of protein by the Food and Drug Administration and provides 7 grams to your diet. Peanuts are actually a legume and have more protein than any other nut with levels comparable to or better than a serving of beans. Since the protein in peanuts is plant-based, it carries with it additional components that have positive health benefits like fiber and unique bioactives, unlike animal protein. Peanuts are high in arginine, and amino acid, which is one of the building blocks of protein. This amino acid is a precursor to nitric oxide, a compound that expands your blood vessels. It has been thought to help in decreasing blood pressure. In fact, in one study called the Optimal Macronutrient Intake Trial for Heart Health (OMNIHeart) (Appel, 2005), three diets were compared to determine the effects on blood pressure as well as the optimal diet pattern for reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease (Swain, 2008)."

Oct 27, 2009By: Dr. Joey Shulman Share Protein is one of the three macronutrients that is a requirement in the daily diet (the other two macronutrients are carbohydrates and fat). Protein is derived from building blocks called amino acids. Each protein is formed from the bonding of various amino acids into configurations. There are 20 amino acids in total. Out of the 20 amino acids, 11 are non-essential, meaning your body can make them. The remaining nine must be derived from the food we consume on a daily basis. Similar to the alphabet, which can form a variety of long and short words, the different configurations of the amino acid structures are the building units for literally hundreds of protein varieties in the body.

There are seven species which include the seriously endangered Black-headed Spider Monkey and Brown Spider Monkey. Offering more info on Spidermonkey here, these New World primates are social animals, who liver in groups of up to two or three dozen animals. These groups split up into smaller sleeping parties at night. With their disproportionate long limbs and long prehensile tail, these Spider Monkeys like to live in the upper layers of the rainforest. Their primary food is fruits, leaves, nuts, flowers, and insects. They also feed on bird eggs, and spiders."

Follow 5 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: They are not in the same class. They ARE in the same subphylum Spiders are Arachnids, and Horseshoe Crabs are under Xiphosura. Both classes belong to Subphylum Chelicerata. The traits of Chelicerata are ; bodies with 2 segments; the Prosoma (Cephalothorax) and the Opisthosoma (Abdomen), and mouth parts called Chelicerae. Arachnids are different from Xiphosurids by having 6 pairs of appendages; a pair of chelicera, a pair of pedipalps (arms/feelers), and 4 pairs of legs, and are equipped with book lungs. Xiphosurids are marine chelicerates with a carapace or shell, and breath through book gills. Jim - Sometimes Chelicerata is grouped as the superclass, to separate sea spiders from the rest of the living chelicerates, with Arachnomorpha as the subphylum. However, both horseshoe crabs and spiders are under chelicerata either way. http://species.wikimedia.org/wiki/Chelic...http://taxonomicon.taxonomy.nl/Taxon Tree...

They can also be found as far north as Mexico. Habitat: Spider Monkeys are arboreal (inhabits in trees). Thriving in the upper canopy, spider monkeys hunt with ease and without the competition of other primates. Also, it should be noted that they sometimes inhabit semi deciduous and mangrove forests. Description: Spider Monkeys have a distinctive feature from other monkeys, glossy hair that covers their entire body except for the face. Their long lanky arms and prehensile (gripping) tails allow them to move among the trees with ease. They do not have thumbs however they can still grip powerfully to tree branches without any limitations. Another particular feature of the spider monkeys is the patch of skin that they have at the end of their tails. This patch works very similar to a finger, it helps to increase their gripping ability."

Those are just a few well-known examples of the thousands and thousands of types of ‘creepy-crawlies’ that exist all over the world. Officially, minibeasts are called invertebrates which are animals without a backbone, and these are the most numerous type of animal in the world. In Britain alone there are over 25,000 species of invertebrates known. Unlike vertebrates (animals with a backbone) they do not have a skeleton inside. This makes them soft and bendy, and because of this, some of them have hard shells to live in. Some, like insects and spiders, have a thin, strong outside covering called an exoskeleton. This means they have protection for their bodies and they have legs, and often wings, which let them move more quickly and easily than other minibeasts. Grouping Invertebrates Minibeasts come in a huge range of size, shape and colour."

On land, in the sea, even in the air itself, they are the true masters of the Earth. They are the arthropods. Arthropods are eucoelomate protostomes, dominating the protostome branch of the animal tree, just as vertebrates dominate the deuterostome branch. Arthropods share a common ancestor with polychaete worms, and may even be a direct descendant of polychaetes. But unlike other eucoelomate invertebrates, the arthropod coelom is greatly reduced in the adult animal. There are over 800,000 named species in the Phylum Arthropoda , named from the Greek arthros (= jointed) and poda (= foot), including the familiar arachnids, crustaceans, and insects, together with a host of less familiar critters, like centipedes, millipedes and sea spiders. All arthropods have jointed appendages. This evolutionary innovation is probably the key to the stunning success of this diverse group."

These New World primates are social and gather in groups of up to two- or three-dozen animals. At night, these groups split up into smaller sleeping parties of a half dozen or fewer. Foraging also occurs in smaller groups, and is usually most intense early in the day. Spider monkeys find food in the treetops and feast on nuts, fruits, leaves, bird eggs, and spiders.

"text": "Crustacea FAQs What is a crustacean? A crustacean is an arthropod, meaning it is an animal that has an external skeletal support system with jointed legs and other appendages. Crabs, shrimps, and lobsters are well-known crustaceans. However, barnacles, pill bugs, amphipods, copepods, krill, crayfishes, sea fleas, clam shrimps, fairy shrimps, and many others also belong to the Crustacea, an ancient group that arose in the early Cambrian nearly 600 million years ago. Crustaceans differ from other arthropods in having two pairs of sensory appendages called antennae (insects have only one pair, and chelicerates, such as spiders and scorpions, have none). Unlike insects, which are nearly all recognizable in having three distinct body regions (head, thorax, and abdomen) and six legs, crustaceans come in all shapes and sizes, and can have many different legs and other appendages. Crustaceans are primarily marine (living in or near the sea), but many also inhabit freshwater and terrestrial habitats. Their habitats range from the deep-sea to the highest mountain lakes, and from shallow warm waters of the tropics to the deepest and coldest ocean basins. More than 70,000 species of crabs, shrimps, lobsters, and their close relatives have been described — more than twice the number of all amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals combined. Although the insects still rule in terms of numbers, the crustaceans are the most diverse in terms of form."

Photo: Sony Pictures. Like a carnivorous bird, the first trailer for the latest Spider-Man reboot, 2017’s Spider-Man: Homecoming, has descended upon the internet. In it, we meet an avian gent who, though unnamed in the clip, has been confirmed as being none other than the Vulture, a longtime Spider-Man foe. He’s played by Michael Keaton, and he will serve as the film’s high-flying antagonist. “ What?” you may find yourself asking at this point. “ Vulture? You mean the website I’m reading right now?”"

There are at least five subspecies. Some primatologists classify the black-headed spider monkey ( A. fusciceps ), found in Panama, Colombia, and Ecuador as the same species as Geoffroy's spider monkey. It is one of the largest New World monkeys, often weighing as much as 9 kg (20 lb). Its arms are significantly longer than its legs, and its prehensile tail can support the entire weight of the monkey and is used as an extra limb. Its hands have only a vestigial thumb, but long, strong, hook-like fingers. These adaptations allow the monkey to move by swinging by its arms beneath the tree branches. Geoffroy's spider monkey lives in fission–fusion societies that contain between 20 and 42 members. Its diet consists primarily of ripe fruit and it requires large tracts of forest to survive. As a result of habitat loss, hunting and capture for the pet trade, it is considered to be endangered by the IUCN."

It contains the horseshoe crabs, sea spiders, and arachnids (including scorpions and spiders ). The chelicerata originated as marine animals, possibly in the Cambrian period, but the first confirmed chelicerate fossils, eurypterids, date from 445 million years ago in the Late Ordovician period. The surviving marine species include the four species of xiphosurans (horseshoe crabs), and possibly the 1,300 species of pycnogonids (sea spiders), if the latter are indeed chelicerates. On the other hand, there are over 77,000 well-identified species of air-breathing chelicerates, and there may be about 500,000 unidentified species. Like all arthropods, chelicerates have segmented bodies with jointed limbs, all covered in a cuticle made of chitin and proteins. The chelicerate bauplan consists of two tagmata, the prosoma and the opisthosoma, except that mites have lost a visible division between these sections. The chelicerae, which give the group its name, are the only appendages that appear before the mouth. In most sub-groups, they are modest pincers used to feed. However, spiders' chelicerae form fangs that most species use to inject venom into prey."

"text": "In what group do the spiders belong? Category: Article series 1970Hits: 1386Donnie Severs, age 11, of Des Moines, Iowa, for his question: In what group do the spiders belong? We are told that spiders are not insects. This is true because of basic physical differences, such as an extra pair of legs. However, spiders and insects are cousins, once or twice removed. Both belong in the enormous phylum Arthropoda, which means the animals with jointed feet. The bodies of arthropods are encased in jointed exoskeletons. This feature makes them different from all other creatures. A spider is an arthropod, with no internal skeleton. Her soft insides are packed neatly in two sacks, which form her outside exoskeleton."

( They tried to use their cat to scare the spider away. It didn't work.) Aragog was about the size of a grown man's hand, and it's not the only giant spider out there. The massive spiders below can’t be dispatched by a shoe or a rolled-up newspaper. They're sure to give you nightmares—even if you're not an arachnophobe.1. POECILOTHERIA RAJAEIThis species of tarantula, discovered in Northern Sri Lanka in 2013, has a leg span of 8 inches. That's roughly the size of your face! It’s part of an arboreal group called tiger spiders, which are indigenous to India and Sri Lanka. A dead male specimen of P. rajaei —which is distinguished from other tiger spiders by the markings on its legs and abdomen—was first presented to scientists in October 2009 by a local villager; a survey of the area revealed enough females and juveniles that scientists are confident they've found a new species. “"

Persina, David Capshaw, Paul Maffia (paulmaf at eskimo.com), J.

Because the US Treasury changes the rules for these bonds periodically, this article also gives some information about determining the yields of bonds issued over the past 30 years. US Savings bonds are obligations of the US government. Interest paid on these bonds is exempt from state and local income taxes. Savings Bonds are not negotiable instruments, and cannot be transferred to anyone at will. They can be transferred in limited circumstances, and there could be tax consequences at the time of transfer. US Savings bonds can be purchased from commercial banks or (naturally) over the internet. Most commercial banks act as agents for the Treasury; they will let you fill out the purchase forms and forward them to the Treasury. You will receive the paper bonds in the mail a few weeks later.

"text": "Joint and Survivor Annuity By Bill Broich | June 7th, 2012 | Annuities, Annuities 101A joint and survivor annuity is held by two or more individuals, usually by husband and wife, under an arrangement wherein annuity payments are made in full while both the contract holders are alive, and at a pre-specified percentage (50-100%) of the full amount after the death of one of the annuity holders. One of the annuity holders is the primary annuitant while others are joint annuitants. For the purposes of this discussion, we assume a joint and survivor annuity with 2 annuitants, one primary and the other joint. Reducing on First or Either death Annuity payments are made in full whilst both the annuitant and are alive. After the death of either of the annuitants, reduced payments ( 50 to 75% ) are made to the surviving annuitant. Period Certain Provision By setting a certain pre-specified period for full payments, the surviving annuitant receives full payments until the end of this period ( 5 to 25 years ), even if the other annuitant passes away before the end of this period. There are many things which you need to factor in, before you can even begin to think about the returns from equity indexed annuities. For example, people who purchase such an annuity at the start of a prolonged stock market crash, such as that in the 70’s or just before the dot-com bubble crash of 2001 may have to adopt a purchase and hold policy. They will have to wait until the market breaches the previous high and keeps going up even further, before they can consider the annuity as a profitable investment. Reduced Payments Upon Death of Primary Annuitant Full payments are made as long as the primary annuitant is alive, even if the other annuitant ( in this case known as a contingent annuitant ) dies before the primary annuitant."

Generally, an executor (or executrix) is named in a decedent's will to administer the estate and distribute properties as the decedent has directed. An administrator (or administratrix) is usually appointed by the court if no will exists, if no executor was named in the will, or if the named executor can't or won't serve. In general, an executor and an administrator perform the same duties and have the same responsibilities. For estate tax purposes, if there is no executor or administrator appointed, qualified, and acting within the United States, the term \"\"executor\"\" includes anyone in actual or constructive possession of any property of the decedent. It includes, among others, the decedent's agents and representatives; safe-deposit companies, warehouse companies, and other custodians of property in this country; brokers holding securities of the decedent as collateral; and the debtors of the decedent who are in this country. Duties The primary duties of a personal representative are to collect all the decedent's assets, pay his or her creditors, and distribute the remaining assets to the heirs or other beneficiaries. The personal representative also must perform the following duties. Apply for an employer identification number (EIN) for the estate. File all tax returns, including income, estate, and gift tax returns, when due."

Life insurers offer various forms of term plans and traditional life policies as well as \"\"interest sensitive\"\" products which have become more prevalent since the mid-1980’s . In New York State, the Department of Financial Services must approve any life insurance policy before a company can issue it to consumers. The New York Insurance Law provides for standard provisions that must be included in every policy. TERM INSURANCE Term insurance provides protection for a specified period of time. This period could be as short as one year or provide coverage for a specific number of years such as 5, 10, 20 years or to a specified age such as 80 or in some cases up to the oldest age in the life insurance mortality tables. Policies are sold with various premium guarantees. The longer the guarantee, the higher the initial premium. If you die during the term period, the company will pay the face amount of the policy to your beneficiary. If you live beyond the term period you had selected, no benefit is payable."

Maybe you are, but you might also benefit from incorporating an annuity into your savings plan. So how do you know if you need an annuity? Let’s look at the basic characteristics of these unique savings vehicles, how they work, and most importantly, if you would benefit from having one. What Is an Annuity? An annuity, by definition, is simply an agreement to make a series of payments of a certain amount of money to a specified party for a predetermined period of time. Annuities also refer to a commercial insurance contract offered by a life insurance company. Purpose of Annuities Annuities are designed to insure the contract owner against the risk of superannuation, which means outliving one’s income.

Pickled eggs are a low-maintenance food that are traditionally prepared by submerging hard-boiled eggs in water and spices for at least 24 hours; the longer the submersion, the richer the flavor. As with other eggs, pickled eggs are high in fat, but you can eliminate the fat by removing the yolks.

One pickled egg with no yolk contains 27 calories. This amount comprises just 1 percent of the daily recommended intake of 2,000, so pickled eggs with no yolks can be suitable for weight loss plans. You could burn the calories in one such egg with less than six minutes of water aerobics or less than three minutes of jogging. Protein Pickled eggs can be a good source of protein, if you consume more than one. Each pickled egg with no yolk contains 4 g of protein, which is half of what a cup of milk contains.

The cholesterol in eggs is high, but according to cardiologist Thomas Behrenbeck at Mayoclinic.com, the amount of cholesterol from eggs and other foods that actually affects your blood cholesterol levels is different for everyone. Since cooking vegetables is known to have an effect on the nutrients that they contain, it’s reasonable to wonder what effect, if any, boiling eggs has on their cholesterol content. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Egg Facts The average chicken egg contains approximately 71 calories and 210 mg of cholesterol. According to the University of Michigan Health System, the protein in egg whites is the “gold standard,” meaning that all other sources of protein are evaluated in comparison to egg whites. Egg yolks also contain high levels of lutein and zeaxanthin. These two carotenoids have an antioxident effect on your eyes, and help protect them by filtering out high-energy blue light wavelengths. The American Optometric Association states that there are 600 carotenoids found in nature, but lutein and zeaxanthin are the only two which are deposited in the retina. Their presence in your eye helps prevent age-related macular degeneration, which can lead to blindness. Cholesterol Facts The American Heart Association recommends that people with healthy levels of LDL cholesterol should consume no more than 300 mg of cholesterol per day, while those with problematic LDL levels should stay below 200 mg of cholesterol."

Traditionally, eggs Benedict consists of toast, ham, eggs and Hollandaise sauce. To make this food choice slightly healthier, you can choose to substitute low-calorie, low-fat options for some of the more fattening ingredients, particularly the butter in the Hollandaise sauce. Cholesterol The total amount of cholesterol in eggs Benedict depends on the amount of eggs and butter used to make the Hollandaise sauce. Most four- to six-serving recipes require three to four egg yolks and one to two sticks of butter. Egg yolks contain high levels of cholesterol, about 215 mg per egg. Butter also contains a high level of cholesterol, one stick having 243 mg of cholesterol. A typical three- to four-egg yolk recipe of Hollandaise sauce using two sticks of butter would yield 888 mg to 1,103 mg of cholesterol total or about 222 to 275 mg of cholesterol per 1/4 cup serving. Add to that the 215 mg of cholesterol in the poached egg itself and the 13 mg of cholesterol typically found in a slice of Canadian bacon and you end up with a total of about 450 mg to 500 mg of cholesterol per serving.

A diet that provides 800 calories or fewer daily is medically defined as a very low-calorie diet, or VLCD. Someone eating only six eggs a day would have to be closely supervised by a doctor, to monitor blood pressure, pulse and blood chemistry. Many patients following a VLCD diet obtain calories from shakes, nutrition bars or other products that are low in calories but provide essential nutrients. While a VLCD results in rapid weight loss -- about 3 to 5 pounds per week -- long-term results vary, and many people regain weight after they go back to a regular diet. In addition to being too low in energy, an egg-only diet would be risky because it's missing essential nutrients."

With that said, eggs have their good points and their bad points. If you enjoy hard-boiled eggs, you should understand how their nutritional value changes depending on whether or not you eat the yolk. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Calories and Protein Eggs are not exactly low-calorie foods, but take away the yolk and they lose most of their calorie count. According to the University of Michigan Health System website, one large, omega-3 enriched egg -- which is an egg that comes from chickens that are fed a diet of natural grains fortified with sources of omega-3 fatty acids -- has 71 calories, while a hard-boiled egg without the yolk contains a mere 17 calories. The white of the hard-boiled egg also contains an impressive 3.6 g of protein. Protein is essential for good health, regulating all of your body’s activities including muscle contractions, nutrient transportation and electrolyte balance. Fat, Cholesterol and Carbohydrates Fat content accounts for much of the calorie reduction when you remove the yolk from a hard-boiled egg. Egg yolks are high in fat and cholesterol.

Egg diets tend to be high protein low carb diets which can be useful for short term weight loss, but not long term. One of the most well known egg based high protein diets is the egg grapefruit diet which combines both protein and grapefruit to burn fat fast, or so it’s claimed. The hard boiled egg diet came to prominence as a number of well-known actors and actresses have reportedly successfully followed an egg based diet, although we cannot find the exact diet they would have used. However, an approximate meal plan for the day would suggest, although low in both calories and carbs: Breakfast: Either 2 hard-boiled eggs or scrambled eggs with half a grapefruit. Lunch: Turkey breast (skin removed) with a green leaf salad. Dinner: Spanish omelette (2 eggs, red peppers, zucchini, tomato). Old advice to limit eggs to just a few each week has been abandoned.

Research has shown that it may be OK for many people to regularly enjoy eggs, including the yolks, however, so it isn't always easy to figure out how many eggs it is safe to consume on a daily basis. The overall composition of your diet may be more important than how many eggs you eat when determining your risk for disease.

It was recommended that people limit their cholesterol consumption to no more than 300 milligrams each day for a long time, but the Scientific Report of the 2015 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee no longer makes this recommendation. In fact, the committee notes that dietary cholesterol isn't a nutrient at risk of over-consumption. In healthy people, eating as much as one egg per day doesn't increase the risk of heart disease or stroke, according to a review article published in the British Medical Journal in 2013. People with diabetes, however, may experience an increased risk at this consumption level. A study published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition in 2015 had slightly different results, showing no increased risk of stroke or heart attack when at least one egg a day was eaten, but showing an increased risk for heart failure in men -- but not women -- at this rate of consumption.

The good news is that each formula uses many of the same basic measurements, so learning each new one gets a little easier.01of 16Surface Area and Volume of a Sphere D. Russell A three-dimensional circle is known as a sphere. In order to calculate either the surface area or the volume of a sphere, you need to know the radius ( r ). The radius is the distance from the center of the sphere to the edge and it is always the same, no matter which points on the sphere's edge you measure from. Once you have the radius, the formulas are rather simple to remember. Just as with the circumference of the circle, you will need to use pi ( π ).

By Terry Prescott Posted on September 27, 2017To count how many edges does a pentagonal prism have , the concepts\"\"edge\"\"of an object,\"\"prism\"\" (geometrical figure) and\"\"pentagonal\"\" (relative to the shape of a geometrical figure) must be understood. When speaking of pentagonal the first thing to think is that the prefix\"\"penta\"\"indicates that the figure must have five sides. Therefore, the figure must have a shape similar to that of a pentagon. Pentagonal Prism An\"\"edge\"\"is an edge of an object. Geometrically, it is a line connecting two consecutive vertices of a geometric figure. A\"\"prism\"\"is a geometric figure bounded by two bases, which are equal and parallel polygons, and whose side faces are parallelograms.

It is one of the most common minerals on the face of the Earth, comprising about 4% by weight of the Earth's crust and is formed in many different geological environments. Calcite can form rocks of considerable mass and constitutes a significant part of all three major rock classification types. It forms oolitic, fossiliferous and massive limestones in sedimentary environments and even serves as the cements for many sandstones and shales. Limestone becomes marble from the heat and pressure of metamorphic events. Calcite is even a major component in the igneous rock called carbonatite and forms the major portion of many hydrothermal veins. Some of these rock types are composed of better than 99% calcite. Why would a collector be interested in such a common mineral? Because of its extraordinary diversity and beauty!With calcite so abundant and so widely distributed it is no wonder that it can be so varied."

The dimensions of the base are called the length and width. The perpendicular distance from base to the apex is called the height of the pyramid. The length of the base vertex to the apex is called the slant height of the pyramid. The base of the pyramid can be a square, a pentagon, a hexagon, etc. Based on that, it is called a square pyramid, a pentagonal pyramid, a hexagonal pyramid, etc. If the base happens to be a circle, then the pyramidal structure would be simply called a ‘cone’."

"text": "How to Prevent High Histamine Levels Naturallywritten by: Lisa Lambson • edited by: Lisa Lambson • updated: 12/30/2010High histamine levels can cause many issues in the body that can be easily prevented by lowering your histamine levels. Chronic dehydration is one of the main causes of increased histamine levels and can be relieved easily by addressing the dehydration. Histamine is a chemical in the body tissues that is produced by the breakdown of histidine. It is released in allergic reactions and causes widening of capillaries, decreased blood pressure, increased release of gastric juice and tightening of the muscles of the bronchial tubes and the uterus. It creates the initial acute allergic reaction, causing itching, swelling and congestion. When the body is deprived of water like when it is dehydrated, a water rationing system takes effect. Histamine, which is a neurotransmitter becomes active and redistributes the water throughout the body. The histamine will go in order of circulatory priority and distribute the water first to the brain, lungs, liver, kidneys, and glands. Then, water will be sent to the muscles, bones and skin. During periods of dehydration, histamine makes sure that the vital organs have enough water to function properly."

Description Anaphylaxis is a type of allergic reaction, in which the immune system responds to otherwiseharmless substances from the environment. Unlike other allergic reactions, however, anaphylaxiscan kill. Reaction may begin within minutes or even seconds of exposure, and rapidly progress to cause airway constriction, skin and intestinal irritation, and altered heart rhythms. In severecases, it can result in complete airway obstruction, shock, and death. Causes and symptoms Causes Like the majority of other allergic reactions, anaphylaxis is caused by the release of histamineand other chemicals from mast cells. Mast cells are a type of white blood cell and they are found in large numbers in the tissues that regulate exchange with the environment: the airways,digestive system, and skin. On their surfaces, mast cells display antibodies called Ig E (immunoglobulin type E). Theseantibodies are designed to detect environmental substances to which the immune system is sensitive."

"text": "Posted by admin on May 10, 2013 in Blog |Effects of Histamine Release Histamine is the chemical in the body that causes allergic reactions. According to Family Doctor.org, when someone encounters an allergen, the body releases Ig E antibodies to fight off the substance. This release causes a chain reaction in the body that causes the mast cells to over-produce histamine. Increased histamine causes irritation and inflammation in various parts of the body. The most common places histamine causes a reaction is in the skin, the nasal passages and the bronchial tubes. Talk with a doctor about any allergy-related symptoms for the most effective treatment options. Upper-Respiratory Symptoms The most common condition in the upper-respiratory system affected by histamine release is called allergic rhinitis. This allergy condition primarily focuses on the sinuses and the eye's reaction to increased histamine, according to the University of Maryland's Medical Center. Common symptoms include nasal congestion, a runny nose, sneezing and sinus pressure pain. Post nasal drip is associated with allergic rhinitis, especially when the nostrils are obstructed."

Histamine is a biogenic amine that occurs to various degrees in many foods. In healthy persons, dietary histamine can be rapidly detoxified by amine oxidases, whereas persons with low amine oxidase activity are at risk of histamine toxicity. Diamine oxidase (DAO) is the main enzyme for the metabolism of ingested histamine. It has been proposed that DAO, when functioning as a secretory protein, may be responsible for scavenging extracellular histamine after mediator release. Conversely, histamine N -methyltransferase, the other important enzyme inactivating histamine, is a cytosolic protein that can convert histamine only in the intracellular space of cells. An impaired histamine degradation based on reduced DAO activity and the resulting histamine excess may cause numerous symptoms mimicking an allergic reaction. The ingestion of histamine-rich food or of alcohol or drugs that release histamine or block DAO may provoke diarrhea, headache, rhinoconjunctival symptoms, asthma, hypotension, arrhythmia, urticaria, pruritus, flushing, and other conditions in patients with histamine intolerance. Symptoms can be reduced by a histamine-free diet or be eliminated by antihistamines. However, because of the multifaceted nature of the symptoms, the existence of histamine intolerance has been underestimated, and further studies based on double-blind, placebo-controlled provocations are needed."

"text": "\"Dermatographism Share |Dermatographism, also known as dermagraphism, simply translates \"\"writing on the skin”. It is a very common localized hive reaction, affecting approximately 2-5% of the general population. This condition is characterized by the abrupt onset of welts and hives where the skin is exposed to pressure, scratching, itching or stroking. Dermatographism is frequently diagnosed incidentally, especially in relation to other skin disorders like eczema. The skin lesions are believed to be the result of an inappropriate release of histamine in the absence of a typical immune signal. Histamine causes the exaggerated response leading to red welts and hives. Clinically, dermatographism is transient; it manifests 5-7 minutes after irritation and usually fades or subsides within 15-30 minutes. The easiest way to elicit the physical findings is deliberate stroking of the skin. The hives in dermatographism typically occur in the same direction and orientation as the irritation. For example, scratching often produces distinct linear hives while direct pressure may lead to a more homogeneous broad looking hive."

"text": "\"Tweet (Natural News) Histamine is an in important neurotransmitter and immune messenger molecule. It is involved in processes involving hydrochloric acid secretion for digestion, triaging water reserves to key areas of the body and the inflammatory response. ( 1) Individuals with low diamine oxidase (DAO) enzymes are at risk for elevated histamine and a condition called histamine intolerance. One of the major effects of histamine is causing the blood vessels to swell and dilate. When the body senses that it is threatened, it will secrete higher amounts of histamine. This allows the white blood cells to quickly move through the bloodstream and find the potential threat or infection. This is an important component of a healthy immune response. When does histamine become a problem? Histamine only becomes a problem when we have metabolic disturbances that do not allow us to effectively metabolize histamine properly. When histamine is formed, it is broken down by specific enzymes."

Amanda Geary, founder of the Food and Mood Project, has been investigating the role of the naturally occurring neurotransmitter, histamine, in food allergy, food intolerance and mood control. The Beginner's Guide to Histamine Intolerance Dr Janice Joneja, a world expert on histamine intolerance, has created an easy-to-read guide to help you understand whether you might be histamine intolerant, and, if so, what you can do about it. From Amazon here in the US – $7.72 From Amazon here in the UK – £5.99Histamine-containing foods can contribute to high histamine levels in the body. For histamine-sensitive people, this can be a problem. Recent research suggests that high levels of this essential neurotransmitter are associated with anxiety or panic attacks. Other research has shown that schizophrenia symptoms can arise from a histamine imbalance influencing brain functioning. Emotional and mental health symptoms due to abnormally high histamine could be helped simply by reducing or avoiding the high risk, high histamine, foods, and choosing low histamine foods instead. Springtime can be hellish for hay fever suffers as the body's immune defenses go into overdrive and produce the irritating and disabling symptoms of red, itchy, watering eyes, runny nose and sneezing.

"text": "Histamine, biologically active substance found in a great variety of living organisms. It is distributed widely, albeit unevenly, throughout the animal kingdom and is present in many plants and bacteria and in insect venom. Histamine is chemically classified as an amine, an organic molecule based on the structure of ammonia (NH 3 ). It is formed by the decarboxylation (the removal of a carboxyl group) of the amino acid histidine. Pathways of complement activation The main function of complement proteins is to aid in the destruction of pathogens by piercing their outer membranes (cell lysis) or by making them more attractive to phagocytic cells such as macrophages (a process known as opsonization). Some complement components also promote inflammation by stimulating cells to release histamine and by attracting phagocytic cells to the site of infection. Encyclopædia Britannica, Inc. English scientists George Barger and Henry H. Dale first isolated histamine from the plant fungus ergot in 1910, and in 1911 they isolated the substance from animal tissues. Plants that produce histamine include stinging nettles; the histamine in the hairlike structures on nettle leaves is partly responsible for the swelling and itching produced by contact with them. Histamine is also the irritating ingredient present in the venom of many species of wasps and bees. In humans histamine is found in nearly all tissues of the body, where it is stored primarily in the granules of tissue mast cells."

"text": "Drug Summary Diphenhydramine Hydrochloride (Benadryl®)Pharmacologic properties: Diphenhydramine is a histamine H1-receptor antagonist that prevents the release of histamine from effector mast cells. Histamine is a vasoactive substance central to allergic reactions that induces vasodilation, vascular permeability, and bronchoconstriction. Diphenhydramine prevents histamine-mediated responses, particularly the effects of histamine on the smooth muscle of the bronchial airways, skin, gastrointestinal tract, and blood vessels. Indications: Acute allergic reactions (mild, moderate, or severe)Anaphylaxis Acute dystonic reactions associated with ingestion of phenothiazines and related drugs (haloperidol, thorazine, compazine, metaclopromide, ziprasidone)Contraindications: Benadryl is not to be used in newborn or premature infants or in nursing mothers Known hypersensitivity to diphenhydramine or antihistamines Precautions: In premature babies and infants, diphenhydramine in over-dosage may cause convulsions or death May cause significant sedation or paradoxical excitation/akethesia Diphenhydramine has additive effects with alcohol and other CNS depressants Antihistamines may cause dizziness, confusion, delirium, hallucinations, and/or hypotension in the elderly (60 years or older)Diphenhydramine has an atropine-like action and therefore should be used with caution in patients with a history of bronchial asthma, increased intraocular pressure, hyperthyroidism, cardiovascular disease or hyper-tension Adverse Reactions: Drowsiness, sedation Confusion Vertigo Hyperactivity in children Palpitations Tachycardiac PVC’s Hypotension Nausea Vomiting Diarrhea Dry mouth Constipation Urinary retention Thickening of bronchial secretion Wheezing Dosage and administration: Adult1 mg/kg IV or IM (maximum dose 50 mg)Pediatric1 mg/kg IV or IM (maximum dose 50 mg)"

Related to Anaphalaxis: anaphylaxis management, idiopathic anaphylaxis Anaphylaxis Definition Anaphylaxis is a rapidly progressing, life-threatening allergic reaction. Description Anaphylaxis is a type of allergic reaction, in which the immune system responds to otherwiseharmless substances from the environment. Unlike other allergic reactions, however, anaphylaxiscan kill. Reaction may begin within minutes or even seconds of exposure, and rapidly progress to cause airway constriction, skin and intestinal irritation, and altered heart rhythms. In severecases, it can result in complete airway obstruction, shock, and death. Causes and symptoms Causes Like the majority of other allergic reactions, anaphylaxis is caused by the release of histamineand other chemicals from mast cells. Mast cells are a type of white blood cell and they are found in large numbers in the tissues that regulate exchange with the environment: the airways,digestive system, and skin. On their surfaces, mast cells display antibodies called Ig E (immunoglobulin type E). Theseantibodies are designed to detect environmental substances to which the immune system is sensitive."

"text": "\"Types of Histamine Blockersby NICOLE VAN HOEY Aug. 14, 2017Histamine is a substance released by the body's immune system from cells called mast cells. This occurs in response to injury or allergies. Histamine receptors are the proteins on cells found in the brain, blood vessels, lungs, skin and stomach that bind to histamine in order to produce an inflammatory response. The symptoms of the inflammatory response are red and watery eyes, swelling of the body, itching, rash or wheal and flare of the skin, stomach upset, congestion and runny nose, along with sneezing, coughing, and shortness of breath. Histamine blockers, or antihistamines, are medications that prevent the binding of histamine to its receptors within the body, and thereby inhibit or lessen these symptoms. Three types of histamine receptors are affected by these drugs called H1-, H2-, and H3--receptors. While H1-receptors are more widespread in the body, H2-receptors are found largely in the stomach and H3-receptors are in the brain. H1-blockers prevent or reduce severe allergic reactions, allergy-induced runny nose called allergic rhinitis, sinus congestion, and rash. H2-blockers decrease heartburn-related conditions like acid reflux called gastroesophageal reflux disease or GERD, where acid or food regurgitates back from the stomach into the throat, and peptic ulcers, which are sores in the stomach's lining resulting from excessive secretion of stomach acid. H3-blockers are still being studied in conditions involving the brain and sleep. ("

"text": "Australian Dream and Arthritis Pain: Review of Research (Updated 2017)By Joe 155 Comments I must be getting old because one of my favorite stations on XM radio is the channel that plays the old time radio shows. I like it because I get to hear programs that my parents and grandparents listened to when they were around. One night, driving home and listening to this station, a commercial for an arthritis cream called Australian Dream. The spokesperson for the commercial was Chuck Woolery, who many may remember from TV game shows like Love Connection. I've never heard of Australian Dream, so I decided to review it. As I drove home, eager to learn more about this product, I thought for sure I knew exactly what its active ingredient was. I couldn’t have been more wrong―which made me want to review it even more. Australian Dream Research From what I can tell, Australian Dream has no published peer reviewed evidence to show it reduces arthritis pain or any other kinds of pain, better than a placebo or better than other similar products on the market. That's too bad considering the product has been around for over a decade. Because of that, let's now look at the ingredients in the product and see what we can figure out."

"text": "The Best Natural Antihistamines to Fight Allergic Reactions By Jenny Hills, Medical Writer and Researcher Food & Nutrition, Health Millions of people worldwide suffer from allergies and if you are one of them, you know what it’s like to suffer. Sneezing, headaches, puffy or watery eyes, runny nose, congestion, sinus pressure and digestive issues— all of these symptoms can become nearly unbearable. There are certain medications that you can use but you can also use natural antihistamines to ease or even prevent allergy related symptoms. Advertisement Let’s have a look first at what antihistamines are and how they can help to alleviate allergy related symptoms. Later on I will share with you antihistamine foods and supplements. What are Antihistamines? Histamine is a substance that is released by the body during an allergic reaction. Mast cells, which are a type of white blood cell, release the histamine, and this triggers a process which is most commonly referred to as the “inflammatory immune reaction”. 1The inflammatory process is easily recognized by the puffy and swollen eyes, red nostrils, inflammation of intestines, or hives on your body. Antihistamines block histamine activity, seeking to stop the allergic reaction."

"text": "\"Antihistamines Follow City-Data.com founder on our Forum or @Lech Mazur Definition Antihistamines are drugs used to treat the symptoms of allergies and allergic rhinitis by blocking the action of histamine, a chemical released by the immune system in allergic reactions. Description Antihistamines are used to treat the sneezing, runny nose, and itchy eyes of allergies and allergic rhinitis, as well as allergic skin reactions and anaphylactic reactions to insect stings and certain foods. Antihistamines are available as prescription and over-the-counter tablets, topical preparations, nasal sprays, and eye drops. Antihistamines work by blocking the effects of histamine, a chemical released by mast cells during an allergic response to an allergen. Histamine irritates and inflames the airways to produce sneezing and mucus production. Antihistamines attach to the areas on cells that histamines attach to, thereby blocking the allergic response. Antihistamines are most effective when taken before exposure to an allergen. When used over time as an allergy treatment, antihistamines reduce the amount of histamine released by cells and decrease the likelihood that an allergic reaction will occur. General use Antihistamines are prescribed or recommended for infants, children, and adolescents with allergies and allergic rhinitis. Depending on the type of allergy, oral antihistamines may be taken regularly or seasonally to combat responses to allergens."

Australian English began to diverge from British English after the founding of the Colony of New South Wales in 1788 and was recognised as being different from British English by 1820. It arose from the intermingling of early settlers from a great variety of mutually intelligible dialectal regions of the British Isles and quickly developed into a distinct variety of English, [4] which differs considerably from other varieties of English in vocabulary, accent, pronunciation, register, grammar and spelling.

"text": "\"Home Cooking Food Nostalgia Meat Pies 51Shepherd's Pie - With or Without Pastry Emmalilly Aug 21, 2016 11:13 PMSettle an argument for me. Growing up Shepherd's Pie was beef mince (ground hamburger for the American's) with gravy (brown gravy, just enough to hold it together and make it wonderful, not too much to make it wet) with mashed potato and cheese on top. This is the way my grandma makes it, and how my mum makes it and so obviously how I make it. Enter my friend who insists that Shepherd's Pie must have pastry base, then the mince mix, potato and cheese. I argue that that is a Cottage Pie. I know technically in the UK the difference between Shepherd's and Cottage pie comes down to the meat used (lamb for Shepherd's and beef for Cottage), however I have only ever know the above. Does anyone have some thoughts about the true make-up of a Shepherd's Pie?---Side Note - Do American's eat Shepherd's Pie? If not, why not??!?!? ! Reply Want to stay up to date with this post?

Soup A Polish forest mushroom soup Type Soup Main ingredients Liquid ( stock, juice, water), meat or vegetables or other ingredients Variations Clear soup, thick soup Cookbook: Soup Media: Soup Soup is a primarily liquid food, generally served warm or hot (but may be cool or cold), that is made by combining ingredients such as meat and vegetables with stock, juice, water, or another liquid. Hot soups are additionally characterized by boiling solid ingredients in liquids in a pot until the flavors are extracted, forming a broth. In traditional French cuisine, soups are classified into two main groups: ''clear soups'' and thick soups. The established French classifications of clear soups are bouillon and consommé. Thick soups are classified depending upon the type of thickening agent used: purées are vegetable soups thickened with starch; bisques are made from puréed shellfish or vegetables thickened with cream; cream soups may be thickened with béchamel sauce; and veloutés are thickened with eggs, butter, and cream. Other ingredients commonly used to thicken soups and broths include egg, [1] rice, lentils, flour, and grains; many popular soups also include pumpkin, carrots, and potatoes. Soups are similar to stews, and in some cases there may not be a clear distinction between the two; however, soups generally have more liquid than stews.

Although their literal translations sound odd to English speakers, they sound perfectly natural to native speakers. Here is one example: Idiom: Hace mucho frío Literally: It makes much cold True Meaning: It is very cold In Spanish, there are a number of idiomatic expressions that employ the verb hacer (literal meaning: to do or to make), and are used to describe the weather.¿Qué tiempo hace?

In Swedish, for instance, the idiom reta gallfeber på någon ('tease someone into a state of bile-fever') means making someone very angry. Today, the knowledge of what a bile-fever is, is lost on the majority of the Swedish speakers – but the origins of this, and many other similar expressions, can be found in the Hippocratic Humoral System. As we shall see, similar systems, and similar expressions, can be found in various languages and cultures across the globe – and it is the aim of this introduction to show the striking similarities and fascinating differences among these systems. What is a Humoral System? Humoral comes ultimately from Latin hūmōrālis; moisture, bodily fluid. In English the term itself remains as indicating an emotional state - one can be in a good humor or in a bad humor. In Swedish, similary, one can be på glatt humör (in a good temper) or på dåligt humör (in a bad temper). The expression han har ett riktigt humör (he has a real humör) is best translated into English as he has a real temper: where temper, of course, in connected etymologically to temperature. These expressions entered the European languages together with the Greek humoral theory of medicine - often called the Hippocratic Humoral Theory, because its first known proponent was Hippocrates (ca."

Previous Thread Next Thread Cracker Jack Senior Member Barcelona, Spain Ilonggo I have often heard and read in fastfood chains fries, French fries and the like. It goes with burgers and soda. Correct me if I'm mistaken but I have known somewhere that French fries actually is an American ''invention'' when a cook accidentally spilled potato strips to a metal box containing hot cooking oil and the rest is history... Actually, it has nothing to do with being French at all. But also I often hear the term chips to refer to French fries. What I understand about chips is that they are potato slices, flat and thin and salted. To me, fries refer to long strips and chips to thin, round and flat ones. Is this a matter of AE and BE difference? I know that the British fare ''Fish and Chips'' consists of flour-dredged fish fillet, fried and accompanied by fried potatoes. But this potatoes are thicker and not shaped like French fries."

"text": "\"Humanities ›Geography A List of Current Communist Countries in the World Share Flipboard Email Printby Matt Rosenberg Updated March 05, 2018During the reign of the Soviet Union, communist countries could be found in Eastern Europe, Asia, and Africa. Some of these nations, like the People's Republic of China, were (and still are) global players in their own right. Other communist countries, such as East Germany, were essentially satellites of the U. S. S. R. that played a significant role during the Cold War but no longer exist. Communism is both a political system and an economic one. Communist parties have absolute power over governance, and elections are single-party affairs. The party controls the economic system as well, and private ownership is illegal, although this facet of communist rule has changed in some countries like China. By contrast, socialist nations are generally democratic with multiparty political systems. The Socialist Party does not have to be in power for socialist principles, such as a strong social safety net and government ownership of key industries and infrastructure, to be part of a nation's domestic agenda. Unlike communism, private ownership is encouraged in most socialist nations. The basic principles of communism were articulated in the mid-1800s by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, two German economic and political philosophers."

"text": "Arab, Middle Eastern, and Muslim? What’s the Difference? ! Many Americans have a hard time distinguishing between the terms Arab, Middle Eastern, and Muslim. Here we break down the various terms to help you distinguish between these three categories. Who is an Arab? Arab is an ethno-linguistic category, identifying people who speak the Arabic language as their mother tongue (or, in the case of immigrants, for example, whose parents or grandparents spoke Arabic as their native language). Arabic is a Semitic language, closely related to Hebrew and Aramaic. While Arabs speak the same language, there is enormous ethnic diversity among the spoken dialects. There are 26 countries or territories in western Asia and Africa where Arabic is the official or one of the official languages of the state: Algeria, Bahrain, Chad (with French), Comoros (with French and Shikomor), Djibouti (with French), Egypt, Eritrea (with Tigrignan), Iraq (with Kurdish), Israel (with Hebrew), Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Mauritania, Morocco, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Somalia (with Somali), Syria, Sudan, Tunisia, United Arab Emirates, Western Sahara, and Yemen. Alternately, Arab typically applies to the 22 member states of the League of Arab States; these members include the above with exception of Chad, Eritrea, Israel, and the Western Sahara."

There have been several instances of Communist states with functioning political participation processes involving several other non-party organisations, such as trade unions, factory committees and direct democratic participation. [ 1] [2] [3] [4] [5] The term \"\"Communist state\"\" is used by Western historians, political scientists and media to refer to these countries. However, contrary to Western usage, these states do not describe themselves as \"\"communist\"\" nor do they claim to have achieved communism—they refer to themselves as socialist states or workers' states that are in the process of constructing socialism. [ 6] [7] [8] [9] Communist states can be administered by a single, centralised party apparatus, although countries such as North Korea have several parties. These parties usually are Marxist–Leninist or some variation thereof (including Maoism in China and Juche in North Korea), with the official aim of achieving socialism and progressing toward communism. These states are usually termed by Marxists as dictatorships of the proletariat, or dictatorships of the working class, whereby the working class is the ruling class of the country, in contrast to capitalism, whereby the bourgeoisie is the ruling class."

Macau is not a sovereign nation. It is one of the two Special Administrative Regions of the People's Republic of China (the other being Anglophone Hong Kong, a former British colony). Equatorial Guinea adopted Portuguese as one of its official languages in 2007, being admitted to CPLP in 2014. The use of the Portuguese language in this country is limited. However, a Portuguese-based creole language, Annobonese Creole, is used, mainly on islands of Annobon and Bioko.15% of Uruguay's population speaks Portuguese (in the northern areas closer to Brazil) as a native language but it is not an official language in any capacity. Spread of Portuguese [ edit]During a period of Portuguese discoveries and through a large colonial empire, the language was spread to areas in Africa, Asia and the Americas."

ZHENG, Copyright 2007 Houston Chronicle Published 5:30 am, Wednesday, April 18, 2007Photo: Zen Zheng, For The Chronicle The Mathews family, from left, Chance, 4; Patrick, 40; Schuyler, 5; Patenne, 9; and Adrienne, 41, congregate on the golf course by their house in Quail Valley. They moved to the subdivision in October. As spring breezes brush through the emerald slopes and send ripplets across the lakes, ducks wobble along the sidewalks and birds chirp in the trees that line the meandering streets. It's not a picture from the hands of a landscape artist, but a living community nestled in the heart of Missouri City, a stone's throw away from Murphy Road and Texas 6 where motors roar and engines scream. \"\" It's a hidden oasis,\"\" said Charlie Butera, 57, who has lived in the neighborhood for 25 years. James H. \"\"Mac\"\" Mac Naughton gave this east Fort Bend community he started developing in 1969 the moniker Quail Valley for the quail then-abundant in the 900-plus-acre ranch with lakes and ponds fed by Oyster Creek. Latest Business News Stunning Drone Footage Shows Sea Ice Across North Atlantic Andre Beyzaei flew his drone over the sea off Newfoundland, Canada, on March 27, and captured this stunning close-up footage of ice across the North Atlantic. Scientists said climate change has turned the icebergs in the region into unexpected hazards for oil rigs and shipping vessels. As global ocean temperatures rise, sea ice that would have typically remained trapped in the arctic are breaking off and moving southward at a faster rate. Increased ice mobility would result in access to water channels being frozen shut and more physical dangers in the North Atlantic."

Is that a fair analysis? ( image: CC0 public domain)So who ranks the strongest when evaluating countries for capitalism? The results might surprise you.1. Germany Germany (image CC BY SA 3.0 Arnaud333 via Wikimedia Commons)Germany tops our list of one of the most capitalist countries in the world. Capitalism in Germany is found in its institutions such as banking and educational systems. German industries have prospered because the country has made it a priority to train its labor force to succeed in various industries. These various systems have worked together to make a robust capitalistic market for the country. The German model of prosperity supports allowing local entrepreneurs to develop and initiate new industries which help the people to communicate better with the world and to meet their needs in becoming current world players in the technology industries. The flow of goods exported from Germany are grouped into sectors, and Germany has the dominant role in exporting for markets which specialize in goods which are the result of patents, niche markets and new innovations and inventions within the country."

Amateur radio (also called ham radio) describes the use of radio frequencyspectrum for purposes of non-commercial exchange of messages, wireless experimentation, self-training, private recreation, radiosport, contesting, and emergency communication. The term \"\"amateur\"\" is used to specify \"\"a duly authorised person interested in radioelectric practice with a purely personal aim and without pecuniary interest;\"\" [1] (either direct monetary or other similar reward) and to differentiate it from commercial broadcasting, public safety (such as police and fire), or professional two-way radio services (such as maritime, aviation, taxis, etc.). The amateur radio service ( amateur service and amateur-satellite service) is established by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) through the Radio Regulations. National governments regulate technical and operational characteristics of transmissions and issue individual stations licenses with an identifying call sign. Prospective amateur operators are tested for their understanding of key concepts in electronics and the host government's radio regulations. Radio amateurs use a variety of voice, text, image, and data communications modes and have access to frequency allocations throughout the RF spectrum."

Elections in November 2010 led to a peaceful transition from sixty years of military rule to a quasi-civilian government headed by former President Thein Sein. Under former President Thein Sein, the previous Government of Burma initiated a series of political and economic reforms which resulted in a substantial opening of the long-isolated country. These reforms include the release of many political prisoners and child soldiers, the signing of a cease-fire agreement with eight major non-state ethnic groups, greater enjoyment of freedom of expression, including by the press, and parliamentary by-elections in 2012 in which pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi and her opposition party, the National League for Democracy (NLD), won 43 of the 45 contested seats. In historic elections in November 2015, the NLD won a majority of the total seats in the national parliament and in most state and regional parliaments. Despite some structural problems, including the reservation of 25 percent of parliamentary seats for the military; the disfranchisement of groups of people who voted in previous elections, including the Rohingya; and the disqualification of candidates based on arbitrary application of citizenship and residency requirements, this election represented an incredible step forward in Burma’s democratic transition. The new national parliament sat February 1, 2016, and National League for Democracy member Htin Kyaw was inaugurated as president on March 30, 2016. President Htin Kyaw’s inauguration, and the formation of a democratically elected, civilian-led government were momentous steps for Burma’s democratic transition. In two of its first major initiatives, the new government released two waves of political prisoners, including five well-known journalists and 69 student activists held on politically motivated charges, though others remain in jail."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search A spray-painted sign above a sewer in Colorado Springs, Colorado, warning people to not pollute the local stream by dumping. Environmental dumping is the practice of transfrontier shipment of waste ( household waste, industrial / nuclear waste, etc.) from one country to another. The goal is to take the waste to a country that has less strict environmental laws, or environmental laws that are not strictly enforced. The economic benefit of this practice is cheap disposal or recycling of waste without the economic regulations of the original country. An example of an attempt at environmental dumping is the story of the decommissioned French aircraft carrier, the FS Clemenceau, which was originally sold to a ship-breaking yard in Gujarat India to be demolished and recycled as scrap. [ 1] The Indian Supreme Court ruled in 2006 that it could not enter Indian waters due to the high level of toxic waste and 700 tons of asbestos present on the ship, forcing the French government to take the Clemenceau back. The ship was subsequently blocked from entering the Suez Canal for the same reason. In 2009, the task of recycling the vessel was ultimately taken over by specialist recyclers at Hartlepool in the United Kingdom.

"text": "\"Editors' pick: Originally published Oct. 13. What makes a city grow? It's one of the most difficult questions in modern policy. There are three main academic theories about what shapes cities as they expand, and there are countless ideas about how to make jobs move in and out. Arts and culture, academics and anchor industries -- these all play a role but also seem to beg a chicken-or-egg question; the most appealing population draws also tend to take root in communities that have already succeeded. Classical economists love to argue that costs of living should organically redistribute population, except that plenty of cheap towns remain sparse while San Francisco and Manhattan stay overpopulated. Growth is an issue that often seems more art than science. Even while urban centers like Detroit desperately try to claw back their population, there's no clear answer as to what actually will bring people back. Is it waterfront revitalization? Youthful idealism?"

We will talk about three of these. LENGTH: US STANDARD UNITS OF MEASUREMENT: As societies evolved, measures became more complex. Since most units of measure had developed independently of each other, it was difficult to change from one unit to another. The English system, for example, arose from a hodgepodge of non-standard units: the INCH was the length of three barleycorns placed end to end, the FOOT was the length of a human foot, and the yard was the distance from the nose to the end of an outstretched arm. In the twelfth century, the yard was established by royal decree of King Henry I of England as the distance from his nose to his thumb. Gradually, the English system of measurements was standardized. The common units for length are: Inch (in.)"

I would hope that people who ask it would eventually learn how to approach it, because it’s actually quite simple. I’ll go through this example step by step and attempt to discuss the kinds of things one needs to think about when considering this type of problem. A more detailed discussion can be found in my response to the question: “How are conversion factors used?”The first question to ask is: Is the conversion I’m trying to do between two different units for the same type of quantity? The liter is a unit of volume in SI. The quart is a unit of volume in what I will call the English system. But, as is often the case in the English system, there are several different units of volume called quarts. Most of them are similar, but not exactly the same. I will assume here that this question refers to US liquid quarts. So the answer to this question is yes, and the assumption resolves any ambiguity about the quart."

"text": "\"Classic Chicken Fried Rice Published: October 26, 2015 By Bill 50 Comments Today, I give you the easy, classic chicken fried rice recipe that you can make for a quick dinner any day of the week. Take-out restaurants generally don’t do justice to this dish, as the chicken bits are usually small, or they used dry, stringy precooked chicken. This is the reason why chicken fried rice is generally not the most favored choice when I’m given a choice between beef, chicken, pork or shrimp!Our already popular Classic Pork Fried Rice is really hard to beat if you use fresh Chinese roast pork (char siu) but for those of you who don’t eat pork or want to stay on the healthier side, chicken fried rice––when prepared properly––is a great choice. This chicken fried rice recipe uses large chunks of chicken to make this dish a meal. Remember, this is only a template recipe for classic chicken fried rice with onions, eggs, bean sprouts, and scallions. You can customize to your heart’s content and add mushrooms, peas, or carrots. You can cut your chicken into smaller pieces if you like, omit the onions, use black pepper instead of white pepper… I think you get the point. One word of advice: If you have never made chicken fried rice before, then follow these directions as written just once. Then next time, you can make adjustments according to your own tastes and experiment with variations. Happy Cooking!For the chicken and marinade: One large chicken breast, diced into ½-inch cubes1 teaspoon soy sauce1 teaspoon cornstarch1/2 teaspoon sesame oil1 teaspoon oil You’ll also need:1 tablespoon hot water¼ teaspoon sugar1 tablespoon regular or light soy sauce or to taste1 teaspoon dark soy sauce1 teaspoon salt or to tastewhite pepper, to taste3 tablespoons canola oil, divided2 eggs, beaten1 medium onion, diced5 cups cooked rice1 cup fresh mung bean sprouts1 scallion, chopped1 tablespoon shaoxing wine Combine the chicken and marinade ingredients and set aside while you prepare the rest of the ingredients."

"text": "\"PRINTCategory: Chicken Perfect Fried Chickenby Patricia Mitchell How to make perfect fried chicken. With summer's fast approach, many of us reminisce about summers past. The sounds of summer -- the droning of a lawn mower, the distant slamming of a screen door -- can sometimes transport us back to childhood, however briefly. And for many people, particularly those with southern roots, fried chicken can be equally evocative. For me, it brings back Sunday dinners. Surely we didn't have fried chicken every Sunday but, in retrospect, it seems as if we did. So, with summer coming on and a little of the hysteria associated with fat and fried foods subsiding, it's a good time to revisit fried chicken. Whether you make it the main course of your Sunday (or any other day) dinner served up with cream gravy and hot biscuits, or take it on a picnic, served cold and complemented with potato salad, fried chicken is a joy for chicken lovers anywhere. You will probably want to make it the way your mama made hers, so we've included several different methods, one of which will probably come pretty close or hit the nail on the head.

Shop Now at forhims.com51 Answers Ren Yu Ku, I cook student meals Updated Oct 5, 2011 · Featured on Huff Post Originally Answered: How do you make totally legit fried rice? Some general tips: Fried rice turns out best when the rice is cold before you begin to fry it. This means that the rice should be prepared in advance. Regular steamed rice, kept overnight in the fridge, would work well. I also find that putting slightly less water when making the steamed rice makes the rice turn out slightly drier and harder, which is not ideal if you are eating the steamed rice as it is, but works well for fried rice as the grains tend not to stick together and turn mushy, and can more readily absorb the sauces that you use to fry the rice. High heat is also an important element in cooking up a good plate of fried rice. This means that you should ideally have a gas stove (as opposed to an electric one). The high heat will tend to make the rice burn more easily and stick to the wok, so you need to be careful, and have either a good non-stick wok or compensate by adding copious amounts of oil to prevent the rice from sticking."

"text": "\"Perfect Pan-Fried Chicken Thighs December 19, 2017Pin Share Tweet Yum Email Juicy, tender pan-fried chicken thighs with a golden-crisp skin are possible with just a spoonful of oil and a bit of patience. The hardest part of this recipe is waiting while they slowly cook on the stove-top. You want the skin to be golden-brown with all the fat rendered before you turn them over. This chicken is completely worth the wait!This recipe has become a staple in my house over the past few years. I made this chicken at least once a week for the first couple of months and I still make it at least once a month. The chicken turns out perfectly every single time. My kids now ask for the “crispy skin chicken” every time they see me purchasing chicken. When I finally learned how to cook chicken thighs, I was in heaven. Crispy chicken thighs really are possible without deep frying or standing over the stove the whole time. After making these pan-fried chicken thighs for a couple years, I decided to play with an oven method for achieving the same crispy chicken thighs."

Ready, let’s go to Tokyo!I’m going to start with my very first snack stop at Tokyo Disney Sea. We stopped at Refrescos’ in the Mediterranean Harbor area for a little bit of everything: A Gyoza Sausage Bun, a Maple Mickey Churro, and Cream of Corn Soup . Basically one of every thing on the menu. We were really excited because there was absolutely zero line. I’m told that the Gyoza Sausage Bun is one of the most popular items at Disney Sea and sometimes people wait over an hour for one. We lucked out because apparently this was an area that just recently started selling them. Normally they are only at the stand in Mysterious Island."

Please help to improve this article by introducing more precise citations. ( November 2013) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)In physics, the fundamental interactions, also known as fundamental forces, are the interactions that do not appear to be reducible to more basic interactions. There are four fundamental interactions known to exist: the gravitational and electromagnetic interactions, which produce significant long-range forces whose effects can be seen directly in everyday life, and the strong and weak interactions, which produce forces at minuscule, subatomic distances and govern nuclear interactions. Some scientists [1] [2] [3] speculate that a fifth force might exist but if so, it is not widely accepted nor proven. Each of the known fundamental interactions can be described mathematically as a field. The gravitational force is attributed to the curvature of spacetime, described by Einstein's general theory of relativity. The other three are discrete quantum fields, and their interactions are mediated by elementary particles described by the Standard Model of particle physics. Within the Standard Model, the strong interaction is carried by a particle called the gluon, and is responsible for the binding of quarks together to form hadrons, such as protons and neutrons. As a residual effect, it creates the nuclear force that binds the latter particles to form atomic nuclei."

Thomson's experiment and the charge-to-mass ratio of the electron The first is the experiment of Joseph John Thomson, who first demonstrated that atoms are actually composed of aggregates of charged particles. Prior to his work, it was believed that atoms were the fundamental building blocks of matter. The first evidence contrary to this notion came when people began studying the properties of atoms in large electric fields. If a gas sample is introduced into the region between two charged plates, a current flow can be observed, suggesting that the atoms have been broken down into charged constituents. The source of these charged particles is a heated cathode that, in fact, causes the atoms of the sample to ionize. These were known as cathode rays. In 1897, Thomson set out to prove that the cathode rays produced from the cathode were actually a stream of negatively charged particles called electrons. ( See Figure 1.8 in the textbook for Thomson's experimental setup). From Maxwell's theory, he knew that charged particles could be deflected in a magnetic field. A schematic of the experimental setup is shown below: Figure 1: Schematic of J. J. Thomson's experiment."

( For example, all objects exert gravitational forces. ) All forces exist as a result of the interaction between objects. These interactions happen on a macroscopic level, or between objects that can be seen with the naked eye as well as on a microscopic level, which means between elementary particles of matter. Elementary particles are the smallest structural units (building blocks) of matter. They are very small and can be seen only through a very powerful microscope.

"text": "Physics, science that deals with the structure of matter and the interactions between the fundamental constituents of the observable universe. In the broadest sense, physics (from the Greek physikos) is concerned with all aspects of nature on both the macroscopic and submicroscopic levels. Its scope of study encompasses not only the behaviour of objects under the action of given forces but also the nature and origin of gravitational, electromagnetic, and nuclear force fields. Its ultimate objective is the formulation of a few comprehensive principles that bring together and explain all such disparate phenomena. Bernoulli model of gas pressure As conceived by Daniel Bernoulli in Hydrodynamica (1738), gases consist of numerous particles in rapid, random motion. He assumed that the pressure of a gas is produced by the direct impact of the particles on the walls of the container. Encyclopædia Britannica, Inc.; based on Daniel Bernoulli, Hydrodynamica (1738)Physics is the basic physical science. Until rather recent times physics and natural philosophy were used interchangeably for the science whose aim is the discovery and formulation of the fundamental laws of nature. As the modern sciences developed and became increasingly specialized, physics came to denote that part of physical science not included in astronomy, chemistry, geology, and engineering. Physics plays an important role in all the natural sciences, however, and all such fields have branches in which physical laws and measurements receive special emphasis, bearing such names as astrophysics, geophysics, biophysics, and even psychophysics."

This lesson defines what a gravitational field is and some practical examples encountered in the real world. We also develop the equations governing the gravitational field and explain what the units of measurement mean. What Is a Gravitational Field? A gravitational field is the force field that exists in the space around every mass or group of masses. This field extends out in all directions, but the magnitude of the gravitational force decreases as the distance from the object increases. It is measured in units of force per mass, usually newtons per kilogram (N/kg). A gravitational field is a type of force field and is analogous to electric and magnetic fields for electrically charged particles and magnets, respectively. There are two ways of showing the gravitational field around an object: with arrows and with field lines. Both of these are shown in the picture below."

"text": "Sombit Ghosh, Physics,my life! ! Answered Feb 21, 2016An electric potential (also called the electric field potential or the electrostatic potential) is the amount of electric potential energy that a unitary point electric charge would have if located at any point in space, and is equal to the work done by an electric field in carrying a unit of positive charge from infinity to that point. According to theoretical electromagnetics, electric potential is a scalar quantity denoted by V, equal to the electric potential energy of any charged particle at any location (measured in joules) divided by the charge of that particle (measured in coulombs ). By dividing out the charge on the particle a remainder is obtained that is a property of the electric field itself. Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_potential Electric potential increases when the distance between a point and infinity because the longer the distance,the more time it takes to reach a particular point. In classical mechanics, the gravitational potential at a location is equal to the work ( energy transferred) per unit mass that would be done by the force of gravity if an object were moved from its location in space to a fixed reference location. It is analogous to the electric potential with mass playing the role of charge.

"text": "\"Most recent answer: 08/09/2017Q:where does gravitational/magnetic force originate from and why does all matter get pulled by gravity (which is magnetic i believe) yet only certain metals only appear (ferrous)to get attracted to magnets and other forms of matter like wood or plastic,etc don’t seem to get pulled by magnets? chris (age 10) Halifax, Canada ... AND... I wanted to ask what the difference is between a magnetic force and a gravitational force. If there’s no difference, I’d like to know how come the Earth’s gravitational pull is able to attract non - magnetic materials e.g human beings, yet no matter how much powerfull a magnet is it can never attract non - magnetic (non- ferrous) material. - curious starvos (age 12) Kenya A: Chris & Starvos - Since your questions are roughly the same, I'll answer them both at once. Gravity and magnetism are not the same thing. In fact, they are completely separate forces. Gravity is a force that acts between any two objects with mass. No matter what they are made of, both objects get pulled towards each other just because they have mass. The reason it seems like gravity only pulls you towards the earth is because the earth is so big that the pull from you on it isn't enough to do much to its motion. Unlike gravity, which occurs between any objects, magnetism depends on specific properties of objects."

"text": "\"Science Notes: Energy Accounting and Balance Once we understand the various transformations of energy that are possible, an energy balance can be used to track energy through a system, and is a very useful tool for determining resource use and environmental impacts. The idea is to use the First and Second laws to determine how much energy is needed at each point in the system and in what form that energy is. The accounting system keeps track of energy in, energy out, and non-useful energy versus work done, and transformations within the system. An energy balance diagram is used. Non-useful work is what is often responsible for environmental problems. Example: We wish to determine how much coal is needed to produce 1 k Wh of electricity. Assume the power plant is 33% efficient, with 85% of waste heat to cooling tower, and 15% to stack. Assume you can get 24 k J of energy from 1 gram of coal. Note that 1 k W of electricity is equivalent to 1 KJ/s of electricity. What are the environmental issues?"

"text": "Next: Rutherford's experiment and the Up: lecture_3 Previous: lecture_3J. J. Thomson's experiment and the charge-to-mass ratio of the electron The first is the experiment of Joseph John Thomson, who first demonstrated that atoms are actually composed of aggregates of charged particles. Prior to his work, it was believed that atoms were the fundamental building blocks of matter. The first evidence contrary to this notion came when people began studying the properties of atoms in large electric fields. If a gas sample is introduced into the region between two charged plates, a current flow can be observed, suggesting that the atoms have been broken down into charged constituents. The source of these charged particles is a heated cathode that, in fact, causes the atoms of the sample to ionize. These were known as cathode rays. In 1897, Thomson set out to prove that the cathode rays produced from the cathode were actually a stream of negatively charged particles called electrons. ( See Figure 1.8 in the textbook for Thomson's experimental setup). From Maxwell's theory, he knew that charged particles could be deflected in a magnetic field. A schematic of the experimental setup is shown below: Figure 1: Schematic of J. J. Thomson's experiment."

Einstein wasn't the first to come up with such a theory — back in 1686 Isaac Newton formulated his famous inverse square law of gravitation. Newton's law works perfectly well on small-ish scales: we can use it to calculate how fast an object dropped off a tall building will hurtle to the ground and even to send people to the Moon. But when distances and speeds are very large, or very massive objects are involved, Newton's law becomes inaccurate."

"text": "Electric energy and potential7-8-99Potential energy In discussing gravitational potential energy in PY105, we usually associated it with a single object. An object near the surface of the Earth has a potential energy because of its gravitational interaction with the Earth; potential energy is really not associated with a single object, it comes from an interaction between objects. Similarly, there is an electric potential energy associated with interacting charges. For each pair of interacting charges, the potential energy is given by:electric potential energy: PE = k q Q / r Energy is a scalar, not a vector. To find the total electric potential energy associated with a set of charges, simply add up the energy (which may be positive or negative) associated with each pair of charges. An object near the surface of the Earth experiences a nearly uniform gravitational field with a magnitude of g; its gravitational potential energy is mgh. A charge in a uniform electric field E has an electric potential energy which is given by q Ed, where d is the distance moved along (or opposite to) the direction of the field. If the charge moves in the same direction as the force it experiences, it is losing potential energy; if it moves opposite to the direction of the force, it is gaining potential energy. The relationship between work, kinetic energy, and potential energy, which was discussed in PY105, still applies: An example Two positively-charged balls are tied together by a string. One ball has a mass of 30 g and a charge of 1; the other has a mass of 40 g and a charge of 2."

"text": "Episode 408: Field strength and potential energy This episode introduces the above three quantities for the electric field. The students’ familiarity with the equivalent concepts in the gravitational field should help here. The major difference is that because of repulsion, by defining the zero of potential to be at infinity, we can have positive potentials and positive potential energies in the electric field, whereas they are always negative in the (solely attractive) gravitational field. Summary Discussion: Field strength (5 minutes)Worked examples: Field strength (10 minutes)Discussion: Potential energy and potential (15 minutes)Demonstration: Potential around a charged sphere (30 minutes)Discussion: Field strength and potential gradient (10 minutes)Worked examples: The non-uniform electric field (25 minutes)Discussion: Field strength Recall: how is field strength defined at a point in the gravitational field? ( As the force per unit mass placed at that point in the field – with units therefore of N kg -1 . ) What would therefore be the natural way to extend this definition to the electric field? ( As the force per unit charge. Thus it would have units of N C -1 . ) We thus define the electric field strength at a point in a field as: E = F/Q where E = electric field strength (N C -1)F = force on charge Q at that point if the field Important notes: The field strength is a property of the field and not the particular charge that is placed there. For example, at a point where the field strength is 2000 N C -1, a 1 C charge would feel a force of 2000 N whereas a 1 m C charge would feel a force of 2 N; the same field strength, but different forces due to different charges."

It is made up of a complex network of lymphoid organs, lymph nodes, lymph ducts, lymph tissues, lymph capillaries and a network of lymphatic vessels that carry lymph and other substances throughout the body. In comparison to the cardiovascular system the lymphatic system has not in the past been the focus of much research. However its’ important role in the body’s immune system has meant that it has increasingly become the focus of research in more recent times. The spleen, which is located in the upper left part of the abdomen under the ribcage, works as part of the lymphatic system to protect the body, clearing worn out red blood cells and other foreign bodies from the bloodstream to help fight off infection. Functions of the Lymphatic System The lymphatic system has three functions: The removal of excess fluids from body tissues. This process is crucial because water, proteins, and other substances are continuously leaking out of tiny blood capillaries into the surrounding body tissues. If the lymphatic system didn’t drain the excess fluid from the tissues, the lymph fluid would build up in the body’s tissues, and they would swell. Absorption of fatty acids and subsequent transport of fat, chyle, to the circulatory system.

The lymphatic system was first described in the seventeenth century independently by Olaus Rudbeck and Thomas Bartholin. Unlike the circulatory system, the lymphatic system is not a closed system. The human circulatory system processes an average of 20 liters of blood per day through capillary filtration, which removes plasma while leaving the blood cells. Roughly 17 litres of the filtered plasma are reabsorbed directly into the blood vessels, while the remaining three litres remain in the interstitial fluid. One of the main functions of the lymph system is to provide an accessory return route to the blood for the surplus three litres. [ 2]The other main function is that of defense in the immune system.

"text": "\"Live Science Health Reference: Lymphatic System: Facts, Functions & Diseases By Kim Ann Zimmermann, Live Science Contributor | February 20, 2018 10:13pm ETMOREThe lymphatic system is a network of tissues and organs that help rid the body of toxins, waste and other unwanted materials. The lymphatic system is a network of tissues and organs that help rid the body of toxins, waste and other unwanted materials. The primary function of the lymphatic system is to transport lymph, a fluid containing infection-fighting white blood cells, throughout the body. The lymphatic system primarily consists of lymphatic vessels, which are similar to the circulatory system's veins and capillaries. The vessels are connected to lymph nodes, where the lymph is filtered. The tonsils, adenoids, spleen and thymus are all part of the lymphatic system. Description of the lymphatic system There are hundreds of lymph nodes in the human body. They are located deep inside the body, such as around the lungs and heart, or closer to the surface, such as under the arm or groin, according to the American Cancer Society. The lymph nodes are found from the head to around the knee area. The spleen, which is located on the left side of the body just above the kidney, is the largest lymphatic organ, according to the U. S. National Library of Medicine (NLM). \"\""

The lymphatic system was first described in the seventeenth century independently by Olaus Rudbeck and Thomas Bartholin. Unlike the circulatory system, the lymphatic system is not a closed system. The human circulatory system processes an average of 20 liters of blood per day through capillary filtration, which removes plasma while leaving the blood cells. Roughly 17 litres of the filtered plasma are reabsorbed directly into the blood vessels, while the remaining three litres remain in the interstitial fluid. One of the main functions of the lymph system is to provide an accessory return route to the blood for the surplus three litres. [ 2]The other main function is that of defense in the immune system. Lymph is very similar to blood plasma: it contains lymphocytes."

A cell is a small scale, clearly-defined production unit within a larger factory. This unit has complete responsibility for producing a family of like parts or a product. All necessary machines and manpower are contained within this cell, thus giving it a degree of operational autonomy. Each worker is expected to have mastered a full range of operating skills required by his or her cell. Therefore, systematic job rotation and training are necessary conditions for effective cell development. Complete worker training is needed to ensure that flexible worker assignments can be fulfilled. Cellular manufacturing, which is actually an application of group technology, has been described as a stepping stone to achieving world class manufacturing status. The objective of cellular manufacturing is to design cells in such a way that some measure of performance is optimized. This measure of performance could be productivity, cycle time, or some other logistics measure."

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued the Analyte Specific Reagent (ASR) Ruling in 1998 and the draft guidance for In Vitro Diagnostic Multivariate Index Assays (IVDMIA) in 2007, in similar attempts to regulate testing in clinical diagnostic laboratories. However, concerns about LDTs surfaced again several years ago, when in 2009, the College of American Pathologists (CAP) recommended that FDA play a role in the oversight of LDTs classified as high risk, arguing for stronger accreditation standards for laboratories conducting low- or moderate-risk LDTs. Although FDA held a public meeting in 2010 to hear stakeholder concerns, the agency has yet to issue new guidance. This potential for FDA oversight of LDTs has sparked considerable concerns in laboratories that perform flow cytometry. Most current laboratory best practices and recommendations for validating tests were designed for traditional clinical chemistry assays and not for flow cytometry analyses. Furthermore, today's highly complex flow cytometers produce a wide variety of data outputs, and appropriate cellular reference materials are not available for validation of LDTs. Consequently, regulation of laboratory-developed flow cytometry tests could hamper the availability of tests using this technology. In March 2011, international experts in the field of flow cytometry assay development and validation representing the International Council for Standardization of Haematology (ICSH) and the International Clinical Cytometry Society (ICCS) formed a workgroup to draft guidelines for validating flow cytometry LDTs. Their recommendations, \"\"Validation of Cell Based Fluorescence Assays: Practice Guideline,\"\" were published recently ( 1 )."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search A chemically defined medium is a growth medium suitable for the in vitro cell culture of human or animal cells in which all of the chemical components are known. Standard cell culture media are commonly supplemented with animal serum (such as fetal bovine serum, FBS) as a source of nutrients and other ill-defined factors. The technical disadvantages to using serum include its undefined nature, batch-to-batch variability in composition, and the risk of contamination. There is a clear distinction between serum-free media and chemically defined media. Serum-free media may contain undefined animal-derived products such as serum albumin (purified from blood), hydrolysates, growth factors, hormones, carrier proteins, and attachment factors. These undefined animal-derived products will contain complex contaminants, such as the lipid content of albumin. In contrast, chemically defined media require that all of the components must be identified and have their exact concentrations known. Therefore, a chemically defined medium must be entirely free of animal-derived components and cannot contain either fetal bovine serum, bovine serum albumin or human serum albumin. To achieve this, chemically defined media is commonly supplemented with recombinant versions of albumin and growth factors, usually derived from rice or E. coli, or synthetic chemical such as the polymer polyvinyl alcohol which can reproduce some of the functions of BSA/HSA. The constituents of a chemically defined media include: a basal media (such as DMEM, F12, or RPMI 1640, containing amino acids, vitamins, inorganic salts, buffers, antioxidants and energy sources), which is supplemented with recombinant albumin, chemically defined lipids, recombinant insulin and/or zinc, recombinant transferrin or iron, selenium and an antioxidant thiol such as 2-mercaptoethanol or 1-thioglycerol."

The C/2 rate is 5 A. The 2C rate is 20 A. However, it is not likely that the 2C rate will discharge the cell in one half hour. Probably the capacity realized at the 2C rate will be less than 10 Ah.

"text": "Improving the prospects for ATMPs in Europe With large pharma companies still reluctant to develop cell, gene and tissue-based therapies, it is critical that regulators provide proactive support to sponsors In March 2012, the largest-ever trial of a gene therapy for cystic fibrosis (CF) was announced in the UK, with around 130 patients set to receive an inhaled therapy that will try to deliver working copies of the CF gene to the cells lining the lungs. The medical significance of the development cannot be overstated, but what is perhaps more remarkable is that the news generated relatively little media attention and the fact that the trial was almost dropped due to lack of funding. The project was saved after the UK's Medical Research Council and National Institute for Health Research provided £3.1m in public money. The CF gene therapy case provides a snapshot of the obstacles holding back the development of what are known in Europe as advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs), which is a catch-all term encompassing gene therapies, cell-based treatments and tissue-engineered products. In fact, despite decades of research and the existence of a defined regulatory route to market in Europe for five years, the number of ATMPs on the market and in late-stage development remains vanishingly small. A recent paper, 'Clinical development of advanced therapy medicinal products in Europe: evidence that regulators must be proactive' (Molecular Therapy 20, 479-482) authored by members of the European Medicines Agency's (EMA) Committee for Advanced Therapies (CAT), which oversees the regulation of this type of product in the EU, found that despite a constant increase in clinical trial activity in recent years 'few have reached more advanced regulatory milestones in Europe'. CAT chair Dr Christian Schneider told PME that “despite the fact that science has progressed tremendously in these fields there is still a lot to discover and understand.” To date, only a handful of ATMPs have reached the stage of either a Marketing Authorisation Application (MAA), certification by the CAT as an ATMP or the receipt of regulatory scientific advice from the EMA, and only one has reached the market in Europe. To understand the sector more fully, the Committee analysed clinical trial data from the Eudra CT database set up in 2004 and identified 318 trials of 250 individual ATMPs, sponsored by more than 170 commercial and non-commercial organisations. One of the main issues identified by the researchers was that most sponsors of ATMPs are academic institutions, medical charities and small companies, with very little involvement by larger pharmaceutical companies in the sector.

Jul 02, 2009 By Robert J. Thomas, David J. Williams Pharmaceutical Technology Volume 33, Issue 7MEDICAL RF/GETTY IMAGESRegenerative medicine is a relatively new and fast growing industry with a product pipeline that offers a potential step change in the treatment of diverse chronic diseases. Regenerative medicine products are broadly defined as those that use a biological approach to restore, maintain, or improve tissue function. This covers a diverse set of therapies including cellular, biomolecular therapeutics, and tissue-scaffold products. In recent years, pharmaceutical developers have increased their interest in products incorporating a living cellular component because of their potential for dramatic clinical benefits in hard-to-treat and chronic conditions. As a result, approximately 80% of companies in the industry are focused on this class of therapy, with the majority in precommercial stages (1). Most products will use stem cells, or perhaps the differentiated progeny of stem cells, as their cellular component owing to their replicative potential and ability to form different tissue types. Background: Regenerative medicine and the need for large-scale stem-cell manufacture Early \"\"simple tissue\"\" products for skin and cartilage, launched in the mid-1990s, were hampered by high production and distribution costs leading to a wave of insolvencies and consolidation in the industry (2). However, the re-emergence of more successful forms of these products combined with the recent approval of landmark clinical trials for more advanced indications (e.g., spinal cord injury and other neural indications) in both the United Kingdom and United States signal a maturing industry. In spite of this, the manufacturing science in terms of platforms, process control, and product analysis is still immature, necessitating an urgent drive for the development of scalable manufacturing solutions for cellular products."

Wallin April 1, 1998 Testing ISO 10993Required for all types of medical devices, cytotoxicity testing is a key element of the international standards. The international standards compiled as ISO 10993, and the FDA blue book memorandum (#G95-1) that is based on 10993-1, address the critical issue of ensuring device biocompatibility by identifying several types of tests for use in selecting device materials. Required for all types of devices, cellular toxicity testing is covered in 10993-5: \"\"Tests for Cytotoxicity—In Vitro Methods.\"\" This standard presents a number of test methods designed to evaluate the acute adverse biological effects of extractables from medical device materials. In performing these tests, laboratory technicians culture mammalian cells, usually of mouse or human origin obtained from a commercial supplier, in flasks using nutrient culture media. ( The Latin term in vitro refers to the culturing of cells \"\"outside of the body,\"\" or literally \"\"in glass.\"\") The lab techniques involved are much like those used to grow bacteria. Cultured mammalian cells reproduce by cellular division and can be subcultured to produce multiple large flasks of cells for use in evaluating materials. This article in MD&DI 's continuing series on ISO 10993 provides an overview of cytotoxicity testing and discusses the benefits of performing such procedures."

Fetal bovine serum is the most widely used serum-supplement for the in vitro cell culture of eukaryotic cells. This is due to it having a very low level of antibodies and containing more growth factors, allowing for versatility in many different cell culture applications. The globular protein, bovine serum albumin (BSA), is a major component of fetal bovine serum. The rich variety of proteins in fetal bovine serum maintains cultured cells in a medium in which they can survive, grow, and divide. FBS is not a fully defined media component, and as such may vary in composition between batches.

Buttner Chair of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) at the University of California at Berkeley. In this paper, he outlines the principles behind platform-based system-on-chip (So C) design and defines the various types of platforms that are currently under development. Abstract Platform-based design is a powerful concept for coping with the increased pressure on time-to-market, design and manufacturing costs. The idea has been exploited for years in the design of personal computers. Here, we present a generalization and formalization of this approach for the design of electronic systems that consist of software and hardware components and integrated circuits. This approach has been vigorously pursued by the MARCO Gigascale Silicon Research Center (GSRC) as a foundation of its efforts. In addition to a formal definition of platforms and platform stacks, we present examples of this concept at the most important articulation points of the design process -- the hand-off between system level applications and implementation, and the hand-off between circuit design and manufacturing. We also introduce the concept of a \"\"network platform\"\" to show how to extend this concept to higher levels of abstractions, demonstrating its general applicability.1. Introduction The complexity of electronic designs and the number of technologies that must be mastered to bring to market winning products have forced electronic companies to focus on their core competence. Product specification, intellectual property (IP) creation, design assembly and manufacturing are, for the most part, no longer taking place in the same organization."

Each of the organs in the body, such as the lung, breast, colon, and brain, consists of specialized cells that carry out the organ's functions such as the transportation of oxygen, digestion of nutrients, excretion of waste materials, locomotion, reproduction, thinking, etc. To assure the proper performance of each organ, worn out or injured cells must be replaced, and particular types of cells must increase in response to environmental changes. For example, the bone marrow increases its production of oxygen-carrying red blood cells sevenfold or greater in response to bleeding or high altitude. Certain white blood cells are produced more rapidly during an infection. Similarly, the liver or endocrine organs frequently respond to injury by regenerating damaged cells. As stated in the previous section, reproduction of cells is a process of cell division. The division of normal cells is a highly regulated process. The cell growth, inheritance and containment is controlled by its DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid)."

Aug 01, 2013 By Pharmaceutical Technology Editors Pharmaceutical Technology Volume 2013 Supplement, Issue 4Quality agreements are a crucial element in the relationship between a sponsor company and contract service provider. Recent draft guidance from FDA on contract manufacturing and quality agreements highlights the importance of such agreements and define the roles and responsibilities of each party to be in keeping with quality risk-management principles. The expectations between a sponsor company and contract service provider define not only the nature of the outsourced relationship but also dictate the quality of the material being supplied or service provided. Quality agreements between contract manufacturers and their pharmaceutical customers are a well-established practice. Recent draft guidance by FDA brings quality agreements into greater focus by applying the science- and risk-based approach inherent in quality risk-management principles and practices. Defining responsibilities FDA issued its draft guidance, Contract Manufacturing Arrangements for Drugs: Quality Agreements, in May 2013 to describe the agency’s current thinking on defining, establishing, and documenting the responsibilities of parties involved in contract c GMP manufacturing of drugs (1). Public comment on the draft guidance was scheduled to close at the end of July 2013 (1). The draft guidance describes how parties involved in contract manufacturing of drugs can use quality agreements to delineate their responsibilities and ensure drug quality, safety, and efficacy. The guidance applies to the commercial manufacturing of APIs (drug substances or their intermediates), finished drug products, combination products, and biological drug products (1)."

"text": "\"Frequently Asked Questions About Therapeutic Biological Products Share Tweet Linkedin Pin it Email Print These frequently asked questions have been developed for the CDER Small Business and Industry Assistance Web site to help small pharmaceutical businesses understand the regulatory process for therapeutic biological products. What is a biological product? Biological products, like other drugs, are used for the treatment, prevention or cure of disease in humans. In contrast to chemically synthesized small molecular weight drugs, which have a well-defined structure and can be thoroughly characterized, biological products are generally derived from living material--human, animal, or microorganism-- are complex in structure, and thus are usually not fully characterized. Section 351 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act defines a biological product as a “virus, therapeutic serum, toxin, antitoxin, vaccine, blood, blood component or derivative, allergenic product, or analogous product, … applicable to the prevention, treatment, or cure of a disease or condition of human beings.” FDA regulations and policies have established that biological products include blood-derived products, vaccines, in vivo diagnostic allergenic products, immunoglobulin products, products containing cells or microorganisms, and most protein products. Biological products subject to the PHS Act also meet the definition of drugs under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (FDC Act). Note that hormones such as insulin, glucagon, and human growth hormone are regulated as drugs under the FDC Act, not biological products under the PHS Act. What Center has the regulatory responsibility for therapeutic biological products? Both the FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) and Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) have regulatory responsibility for therapeutic biological products, including premarket review and oversight."

When starting a 5S program, the cleaning, organizing, and developing of sustainable practices is done so the elements of work can be standardized. In lean product development deployments, by developing and releasing design guidelines, we are in effect implementing standardized work for engineers. The principles of lean and flow production do not work well when everyone is allowed to choose the method or sequence in which to do the job; quality suffers, and productivity drops. This reduces throughput and the carefully developed production system develops unanticipated bottlenecks. Standardized Work: The Principles Standardized work is a detailed, documented and visual system by which associates develop and follow a series of predefined process steps. It should be used whenever the work requires completing a series of tasks. Production workers, shipping departments, and warehousing teams all can benefit from implementing standardized work. The detailed process steps which we call standardized work represent the current best practices for workers to follow in the completion of their jobs. They are designed to minimize process variation introduced by the worker and to eliminate unnecessary motion."

"text": "\"Shortage From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search A 2014 image of product shortages in Venezuela. In economics, a shortage or excess demand is a situation in which the demand for a product or service exceeds its supply in a market. It is the opposite of an excess supply ( surplus ). Contents [ hide ]1 Definitions2 Causes3 Effects4 Examples5 Shortages and \"\"longages\"\"6 Labour shortage6.1 Wage factors7 See also8 References9 External links Definitions [ edit]In a perfect market (one that matches a simple microeconomic model), an excess of demand will prompt sellers to increase prices until demand at that price matches the available supply, establishing market equilibrium [1] [ citation needed]. In economic terminology, a shortage occurs when for some reason (such as government intervention, or decisions by sellers not to raise prices) the price does not rise to reach equilibrium. In this circumstance, buyers want to purchase more at the market price than the quantity of the good or service that is available, and some non-price mechanism (such as \"\"first come, first served\"\" or a lottery) determines which buyers are served. So in a perfect market the only thing that can cause a shortage is price. In common use, the term \"\"shortage\"\" may refer to a situation where most people are unable to find a desired good at an affordable price, especially where supply problems have increased the price. \"\" Market clearing \"\" happens when all buyers and sellers willing to transact at the prevailing price are able to find partners. There are almost always willing buyers at a lower-than-market-clearing price; the narrower technical definition doesn't consider failure to serve this demand as a \"\"shortage\"\", even if it would be described that way in a social or political context (which the simple model of supply and demand does not attempt to encompass). Causes [ edit]Shortages (in the technical sense) may be caused by: Price ceilings, a type of price control which involves a government-imposed limit on the price of a product service."

"text": "\"Authorities provide differing definitions of the middle-market or mid-market companies. [ 1] [2] While some authorities look to revenue generated by companies to define the middle market, other sources regard either asset size or number of employees [3] as a better metric for comparing company sizes. Definitions of the middle market are generally derived by dividing the United States economy into three categories: small business, middle-market, and big business. According to figures collected by the U. S. Census Bureau, the total revenue of all U. S. businesses in 2012 was roughly $32.6 trillion. [ 4] The largest of these companies, which are big businesses with revenue of over $3 billion, [5] make up roughly one-third of that total, and businesses with a revenue of under $100 million made up about another third of the total revenue. The middle market can thus be defined as the companies larger than small businesses but smaller than big businesses that account for the middle third of the U. S. economy’s revenue. Each of these companies earns an annual revenue of between $100 million and $3 billion. [ 6]Other authorities define middle-market firms differently. The National Center for the Middle Market at the Ohio State University Fisher College of Business [7] as well as Dun & Bradstreet ’s proprietary database of commercially-active U. S. firms [8] define middle market businesses as those companies with revenues between $10 million and $1 billion per year. The definition is defined in reference to small businesses, which earn less than $10 million in annual revenue, and big business, which earn at least $1 billion in revenues and are generally the smallest eligible for a credit rating by one of the \"\"major\"\" credit-rating agencies."

"text": "Free trade market definition Many economies strive to implement the concept of free trade market in its true meaning. However, some do not fully comply with its requirements due to the fact that consumers can still be influenced or forced in some way. This goes against its main principle as voluntary exchange constitutes the basis of its definition. Free trade market is an economic system where people are allowed to willingly exchange goods, services and money without obstacles. One of the examples of the free market could be a situation where a person can freely trade their money, manpower or any other personal possession for anything that is going to bring benefit for both parties. In this trade, any party sees the offered product as more valuable than the one they give up. Most of today's relatively free trade markets use money as the main item for the exchange process. Money can serve this purpose as long as all market participants regard it as valuable. Its actual value is not as important as the value which people prescribe it. In other words, the majority of people will accept the official currency in exchange for goods and services because they know that the majority of other people will also accept it."

[ edit]Electronic commerce or e-commerce refers to a wide range of online business activities for products and services. [ 1] It also pertains to “any form of business transaction in which the parties interact electronically rather than by physical exchanges or direct physical contact.” [ 2]E-commerce is usually associated with buying and selling over the Internet, or conducting any transaction involving the transfer of ownership or rights to use goods or services through a computer-mediated network. [ 3] Though popular, this definition is not comprehensive enough to capture recent developments in this new and revolutionary business phenomenon. A more complete to ghara and duara definition is: E-commerce is the use of electronic communications and digital information processing technology in business transactions to create, transform, and redefine relationships for value creation between or among organizations, and between organizations and individuals. [ 4]International Data Corp (IDC) estimates the value of global e-commerce in 2000 at US$350.38 billion. This is projected to climb to as high as US$3.14 trillion by 2004. IDC also predicts an increase in Asia’s percentage share in worldwide e-commerce revenue from 5% in 2000 to 10% in 2004 (See Figure 1)."

"text": "Science, Tech, Math ›Social Sciences What Is a Free-Market Economy? Share Flipboard Email Printby Mike Moffatt Updated March 17, 2017A free-market economy is an economy in which the allocation for resources is determined only by the supply and the demand for them. Put another way, the profit motive combined with individuals' preferences combine to direct resources in a free-market economy. This stands in contrast to most other economic systems where the government plays the role of central planner to varying degrees and organizes the flow of resources to the production of various goods and services. In most scenarios, capitalism can be thought of as a synonym for free-market economic system. In practice, a pure free-market economy is mainly a theoretical concept as every country, even capitalist ones, places some restrictions on the ownership and exchange of commodities.

"text": "Digital transformation: online guide to digital business transformation Digital transformation is the profound transformation of business and organizational activities, processes, competencies and models to fully leverage the changes and opportunities of a mix of digital technologies and their accelerating impact across society in a strategic and prioritized way, with present and future shifts in mind. While digital transformation is predominantly used in a business context, it also impacts other organizations such as governments, public sector agencies and organizations which are involved in tackling societal challenges such as pollution and aging populations by leveraging one or more of these existing and emerging technologies. In some countries, such as Japan, digital transformation even aims to impact all aspects of life with the country’s Society 5.0 initiative, which goes far beyond the limited Industry 4.0 vision in other countries. In the scope of this digital transformation overview, we mainly look at the business dimension. The mentioned development of new competencies revolves around the capacities to be more agile, people-oriented, innovative, customer-centric, streamlined, efficient and able to induce/leverage opportunities to change the status quo and tap into new information- and service-driven revenues. Digital transformation efforts and strategies are often more urgent and present in markets with a high degree of commoditization. Present and future shifts and changes, leading to the necessity of a faster deployment of a digital transformation strategy, can be induced by several causes, often at the same time, on the levels of customer behavior and expectations, new economic realities, societal shifts (e.g. aging populations), ecosystem/industry disruption and (the accelerating adoption and innovation regarding) emerging or existing digital technologies. In practice, end-to-end customer experience optimization, operational flexibility and innovation, are key drivers of digital transformation, along with the development of new revenue sources and information-powered ecosystems of value, leading to business model transformations. Digital transformation is a journey with multiple connected intermediary goals, in the end striving towards continuous optimization across processes, divisions and the business ecosystem of a hyper-connected age where building the right bridges in function of that journey is key to succeed. A digital transformation strategy aims to create the capabilities of fully leveraging the possibilities and opportunities of new technologies and their impact faster, better and in more innovative way in the future."

"text": "\"Shortage From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Economic shortage)navigation search A 2014 image of product shortages in Venezuela. In economics, a shortage or excess demand is a situation in which the demand for a product or service exceeds its supply in a market. It is the opposite of an excess supply ( surplus ). Contents [ hide ]1 Definitions2 Causes3 Effects4 Examples5 Shortages and \"\"longages\"\"6 Labour shortage6.1 Wage factors7 See also8 References9 External links Definitions [ edit]In a perfect market (one that matches a simple microeconomic model), an excess of demand will prompt sellers to increase prices until demand at that price matches the available supply, establishing market equilibrium [1] [ citation needed]. In economic terminology, a shortage occurs when for some reason (such as government intervention, or decisions by sellers not to raise prices) the price does not rise to reach equilibrium. In this circumstance, buyers want to purchase more at the market price than the quantity of the good or service that is available, and some non-price mechanism (such as \"\"first come, first served\"\" or a lottery) determines which buyers are served. So in a perfect market the only thing that can cause a shortage is price. In common use, the term \"\"shortage\"\" may refer to a situation where most people are unable to find a desired good at an affordable price, especially where supply problems have increased the price. \"\" Market clearing \"\" happens when all buyers and sellers willing to transact at the prevailing price are able to find partners. There are almost always willing buyers at a lower-than-market-clearing price; the narrower technical definition doesn't consider failure to serve this demand as a \"\"shortage\"\", even if it would be described that way in a social or political context (which the simple model of supply and demand does not attempt to encompass). Causes [ edit]Shortages (in the technical sense) may be caused by: Price ceilings, a type of price control which involves a government-imposed limit on the price of a product service."

Introduction We're talking about the natural rate of unemployment. There are some important terms and definitions regarding the labor market that you need to know in economics. Just imagine we find ourselves in the little town of Ceelo - quite a breathtaking place, if you ask me. Within the town of Ceelo, we find that Cindy just graduated from college, and she's actively looking for work. Cindy is frictionally unemployed, meaning that her decision is part of the normal turnover that happens in a healthy job market. The natural level of employment occurs when the labor market is in equilibrium Now Cindy's dad, Matt, has lost his job because he no longer has the skills necessary to perform his job at the factory since they replaced all the machinery with high-tech gear and also moved a lot of the factory overseas. In addition, Matt's Uncle Fred works seasonally as a Santa Claus for Christmas parties on Wall Street and loves to eat salmon from the buffet, but he's not working since the holidays have long since passed. Matt and Fred are what we call structurally unemployed. Matt's Uncle Fred has a brother named Frohm, and Frohm has lost his job as a high school gym teacher because of an economic slowdown."

"text": "DEFINITION of 'Genuine Progress Indicator - GPI'A metric used to measure the economic growth of a country. It is often considered as a replacement to the more well known gross domestic product (GDP) economic indicator. The GPI indicator takes everything the GDP uses into account, but also adds other figures that represent the cost of the negative effects related to economic activity (such as the cost of crime, cost of ozone depletion and cost of resource depletion, among others). The GPI nets the positive and negative results of economic growth to examine whether or not it has benefited people overall. Next Up Gross Domestic Product - GDPGDP Price Deflator Economic Indicator Economic Conditions BREAKING DOWN 'Genuine Progress Indicator - GPI'The GPI metric was developed out of the theories of green economics (which sees the economic market as a piece within a ecosystem). Proponents of the GPI see it as a better measure of the sustainability of an economy when compared to the GDP measure. Since 1995 the GPI indicator has grown in stature and is used in Canada and the United States. However, both these countries still report their economic information in GDP to remain in line with the more widespread practice.

It benefits from the advantages of all three while suffering from few of the disadvantages. A mixed economy has three of the following characteristics of a market economy. First, it protects private property. Second, it allows the free market and the laws of supply and demand to determine prices. Third, it is driven by the motivation of the self-interest of individuals. A mixed economy has some characteristics of a command economy in strategic areas. It allows the federal government to safeguard its people and its market. The government has a large role in the military, international trade and national transportation. The government’s role in other areas depends upon the priorities of the citizens."

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

"text": "Flammable and Combustible Material Storage Safety What are flammable and combustible materials? Flammable materials can be found as solids, liquids, or gases. Flammable solids can be classified in three categories: desensitized explosives, self-reactive materials, and readily combustible solids. These are generally non-explosive but may ignite when exposed to friction, moisture, heat retained from processing, or a spontaneous chemical change. More detailed information can be found from the US Department of Transportation (DOT) in 49 CFR 173.124. Examples include dust and powders. Flammable gases are compressed gases which ignite at 14.7 pounds per square inch (psi), or can ignite at 14.7 psi when mixed with 13% or less by volume with air. Examples include butane, acetylene, methane and hydrogen. Flammable liquids are identified as liquids that have a flashpoint (minimum temperature needed for the liquid to produce a vapor with enough of a concentration to ignite) below 100 degrees Fahrenheit (F). There is an exception to this definition."

"text": "Safety Physical Hazards Share By Joe O'Connor Published In April 2004A lost requirement of OSHA’s Hazard Communication Standard When the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) issued the Hazard Communication Standard, our industry was overwhelmed. Mountains of paper were assembled to comply. Dangerous physical hazards seemed to take a back seat. This article will revisit those various physical hazards, their danger and general precautions. A physical hazard defined by OSHA is “a chemical for which there is scientifically valid evidence that it is a combustible liquid, a compressed gas, explosive, flammable, an organic peroxide, an oxidizer, pyrophoric, unstable (reactive) or water-reactive.” Most substances that fit this definition fall into the subcategories of flammable or compressed gas. However, with the almost limitless number of chemicals developed for home and industry, many products fall into other subcategories. For example, hydrogen peroxide, a common household chemical, is an oxidizer. It is important to identify the physical hazards products present and understand them. Because of our familiarity with fire, the physical hazards of combustible liquids and flammables are easiest to address."

Class B/C: Flammable liquid and gas A CO 2 fire extinguisher rated for flammable liquids and gasses These are fires whose fuel is flammable or combustible liquid or gas. The US system designates all such fires \"\"Class B\"\". In the European/Australian system, flammable liquids are designated \"\"Class B\"\", while burning gases are separately designated \"\"Class C\"\". These fires follow the same basic fire tetrahedron (heat, fuel, oxygen, chemical reaction) as ordinary combustible fires, except that the fuel in question is a flammable liquid such as gasoline, or gas such as natural gas . A solid stream of water should never be used to extinguish this type because it can cause the fuel to scatter, spreading the flames. The most effective way to extinguish a liquid or gas fueled fire is by inhibiting the chemical chain reaction of the fire, which is done by dry chemical and Halon extinguishing agents, although smothering with CO2 or, for liquids, foam is also effective. Halon has fallen out of favor in recent times because it is an ozone-depleting material; the Montreal Protocol declares that Halon should no longer be used. Chemicals such as FM-200 are now the recommended halogenated suppressant. Class C or Class E: Electrical Electrical fires are fires involving potentially energized electrical equipment."

"text": "\"WHMIS 1988 - Classification CLOSE ALLWhat are WHMIS classes or classifications? WHMIS (Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System) uses classifications to group chemicals with similar properties or hazards. The Controlled Products Regulations specifies the criteria used to place materials within each classification. There are six (6) classes although several classes have divisions or subdivisions. Each class has a specific symbol to help people identify the hazard quickly. The classes are: Class A - Compressed Gas Class B - Flammable and Combustible Material Division 1: Flammable Gas Division 2: Flammable Liquid Division 3: Combustible Liquid Division 4: Flammable Solid Division 5: Flammable Aerosol Division 6: Reactive Flammable Material Class C - Oxidizing Material Class D - Poisonous and Infectious Material Division 1: Materials causing immediate and serious toxic effects Subdivision A: Very toxic material Subdivision B: Toxic material Division 2: Materials causing other toxic effects Subdivision A: Very toxic material Subdivision B: Toxic material Division 3: Biohazardous Infection Material Class E - Corrosive material Class F - Dangerously reactive material What is a Class A - Compressed Gas? Any material that is normally a gas which is placed under pressure or chilled, and contained by a cylinder is considered to be a compressed gas. These materials are dangerous because they are under pressure. If the cylinder is broken, the container can 'rocket' or 'torpedo' at great speeds and this is a danger to anyone standing too close. If the cylinder is heated (by fire or rise in temperature), the gas may try to expand and the cylinder will explode."

"text": "The Fire Classification System in the UKNovember 21st, 2013All fires can be separated into 5 different categories, depending on the type of fuel that is burning. Categorising fires in this way makes it easier to choose the most appropriate method of fighting the fire, for example some fire extinguishers are more suited for use on certain types of fires than others. In the UK fires are classed using the European Standard Classification of Fires, which is recognised across the EU. Class A – Ordinary combustible fires These are probably the most common type of fire. They occur when materials become heated to their ignition temperature and will continue to burn as long as there is heat, oxygen and fuel to burn. Materials involved in these types of fires include paper, wood, textiles, rubber, some plastics and other organic carbon based compounds. Class A fires are probably the easiest to extinguish as spraying them with water will cool the fire, removing the heat supply which is essential for the fire to burn. Water based or foam fire extinguishers are most appropriate for putting out ordinary combustible fires. Class B – Flammable liquids Flammable liquids are those that have an ignition temperature of less than 100°C. These liquids also have a low flashpoint, which means that they burn easily."

I say almost all, because there are certain chemicals (such as Chlorine Triflouride) that are better oxidators than oxygen itself, and are able to burn things that should not burn. Pure fluorine, for example, is an extremely reactive element and can burn just about anything, including glass. Chlorine Triflouride has these properties as well. So the idea of something being \"\"inflammable\"\" is only useful for describing resistance to reacting with Oxygen. On the other hand, you're probably not stupid enough to mess around with Flourine and its compounds, so any non-flammable material you find should serve you well in the majority of cases.

"text": "Fire Investigation Fire investigation involves the examination of all fire-related incidents once firefighters have extinguished the fire. The practice is similar to the examination of crime scenes in that the scene must be preserved and evidence collected and analysed, but with numerous additional difficulties and dangers. The investigation will include closely surveying the damaged scene to establish the origin of the fire and eventually establishing the cause. However in order to effectively examine and evaluate a fire scene, it is imperative that the investigator has a detailed knowledge of the chemistry and behaviour of fire and its effects. Nature & Chemistry of Fire Fire occurs due to the exothermic reaction of combustion (burning), producing heat and light. In order for a fire to occur, three vital components must be present: a fuel source, an oxidant (O 2) and a sufficient amount of energy in the form of heat. Together these make up the fire triangle. A fourth factor can also be described – a self-sustaining chemical chain reaction – to produce the fire tetrahedron. The absence of any of these conditions will result in a fire not starting or extinguishing through smothering (oxygen removal), cooling (heat removal) or starving (fuel removal). Solid and liquid materials do not actually combust, but the process of heating causes them to produce vapours which can burn."

Since most units of measure had developed independently of each other, it was difficult to change from one unit to another. The English system, for example, arose from a hodgepodge of non-standard units: the INCH was the length of three barleycorns placed end to end, the FOOT was the length of a human foot, and the yard was the distance from the nose to the end of an outstretched arm. In the twelfth century, the yard was established by royal decree of King Henry I of England as the distance from his nose to his thumb. Gradually, the English system of measurements was standardized. The common units for length are: Inch (in.)"

Rebar generally costs about $0.75 per foot with slight price variations for thinner or thicker sticks. Usually sold in 2-foot lengths, prices can range from $1.40 to $1.84. The surface of the bar is \"\"deformed\"\" or patterned to provide a good contact area for concrete adherence. Early concrete structures did not use reinforcement bars, but rather broken pottery shards as reinforcement materials. Steel reinforcement is generally divided into two types. Primary reinforcement is designed to support the overall load that construction is intended to carry, such as the rebar you might put into a concrete retaining wall. It holds the structure together. Secondary reinforcement is employed to maintain durability and aesthetics. It helps provide resistance to cracking and stress caused by temperature fluctuations and natural shrinkage of concrete as it dries."

As much as manufacturers and consumers alike would like to eliminate these sales intermediaries, in certain cases it is just impossible. For example, it would be unthinkable for the average individual to purchase a car directly from the manufacturer, without ever doing a test-drive, and without financing. The automobile and many other industries share a similar method of distribution for their products: a middleman holding goods on consignment. What is a consignment agreement? In Florida, the answer comes directly from the statutory text:“Consignment” means a transaction, regardless of its form, in which a person delivers goods to a merchant for the purpose of sale and:1. The merchant:a. Deals in goods of that kind under a name other than the name of the person making delivery;b. Is not an auctioneer; andc.

Many people will use the excuse, “I would go vegan, but it’s just so expensive,” or “Where would I buy all those special vegan foods?” to avoid making the switch. To them, a plant-based vegan diet is somewhat of a luxury, only possible for the affluent or those embodying a ‘hippy’ disposition, who have no daily obligations other than to frolic through forests collecting baskets of berries and whatnot. But the reality is that a plant-based diet can be the most convenient, accessible, and affordable dietary choice on the planet, providing not only great nutrition, but also accommodating life on a budget – it all depends on the choices that YOU make. Here is your guide to eating healthy on a budget – vegan style:1. Mock meats and cheese are not a must Many people who recently turned vegan, and have yet to detach themselves from their old eating habits, will most likely struggle arduously to fill the gap in the meat-shaped hole that they perceive on their plate. While fake meats and cheese can be a fantastic aid to the transitioning vegan, these products can be on the pricey side. For the little nutritional value within these pricey, fake meats and cheese, you could substitute a plethora of natural, protein-packed beans, lentils and other legumes, or home made cheese and home made milks, for a fraction of the price.2."

If you have bandwidth and resources to spare then you may want to contribute to the Tor network by setting up your Tor node as a Tor server . The more servers there are, the better for everybody. An agency who controls 15% of the Tor network would be able to compromize it; that would be easy with a total of 100 tor servers on the network, very hard to do with a total of 1 million.

It doesn’t have to be Amway; it could be any one of those other multi-level marketing (MLM) schemes too, such as Primerica, or perhaps it was Quixtar (Amway’s online variant). Or perhaps you received some scam via E-mail, promising untold wealth without any work. If you’re like most people, you simply shook your head, dismissed it as a scam, and moved on. But a surprisingly large number of people get taken in by it, and the last time someone tried to sell me on the idea, I told him I would take a good look at the business model to see if it made any sense. I did, and it doesn’t. How does Amway work? The Amway “hook” is simple enough. You become a “distributor” for a low, low entry fee. This makes you a retail franchise."

By Jeff Beer 4 minute Read The rise of multichannel networks (MCN) such as Maker, Awesomeness TV, Machinima, and more–consolidating thousands of You Tube channels and creators under one roof to maximize ad revenue–over the past few years has been well documented. They became a one-stop shop for brands to reach the growing legion of digital entertainment stars, and the millions of young consumer eyeballs watching their every video.

"text": "\"Humanities ›History & Culture The First Credit Card Share Flipboard Email Print The first credit card. Courtesy of Diners Club.by Jennifer Rosenberg Updated April 07, 2017Charging for products and services has become a way of life. No longer do people bring cash when they buy a sweater or a large appliance, they charge it. Some people do it for the convenience of not carrying cash; others \"\"put it on plastic\"\" so they can purchase an item they can not yet afford. The credit card that allows them to do this is a twentieth-century invention. At the beginning of the twentieth century, people had to pay cash for almost all products and services. Although the early part of the century saw an increase in individual store credit accounts, a credit card that could be used at more than one merchant was not invented until 1950. It all started when Frank X. Mc Namara and two of his friends went out to supper. The Famous Supper In 1949, Frank X Mc Namara, head of the Hamilton Credit Corporation, went out to eat with Alfred Bloomingdale, Mc Namara's long-time friend and grandson of the founder of the Bloomingdale's store, and Ralph Sneider, Mc Namara's attorney. The three men were eating at Major's Cabin Grill, a famous New York restaurant located next to the Empire State Building, to discuss a problem customer of the Hamilton Credit Corporation."

On one side we’ve common men (households), these folks spend money and save money. So these are the people who have “surplus” money. On the opposite side, we’ve businessmen (industries) who provide goods n services. They need money to start new business, to expand existing business, sometimes Government also needs money.

A retailer is also an example of a middleman, as is a real estate agent. The middleman does not produce anything but has extensive market knowledge.

You probably know that 20 blocks = 1 mile, so go out and walk a block, crossing one street (i.e. from south corner to south corner) because the width of that street is included in the mile measurement.

This makes walking an excellent physical activity to get in shape. Unfortunately, most Americans don’t walk enough, and walk far less than adults around the world. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key U. S. Adults The number of steps taken per day by a U. S. adult likely falls somewhere in the range of 5,117 and 6,540, as reported in studies published in the journal \"\"Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise\"\" in 2010 and 2009, respectively. Two thousand steps equals roughly a mile of walking. So, the average American walks about 2.5 to 3 miles per day. Assessing the number of steps a person takes during a day is complicated by the inaccuracies of pedometers and accelerometers. Both the 5,117 and the 6,540 figures have been corrected for what is assumed to be a tendency to overestimate the number of steps taken per day by these recording machines. International Adults The 2010 \"\"Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise\"\" study compared the number of steps taken by U. S. adults to adults living in other places of the world. The American adults -- 5,117 steps -- took far fewer steps than adults in western Australia -- 9,695 steps, Switzerland -- 9,650 steps, and Japan -- 7,168."

While walking is very healthy for the body and it is absolutely helpful as supplemental exercise if you're trying to drop weight or body fat, it does not cover all of the bases. However, if you combine a walking habit with a smart workout program, you're going to drastically increase the health benefits and also see a lot better results, a lot faster. If you're trying to lose weight, you still need to challenge your cardiovascular endurance (for health and calorie burn). Keep in mind that this is relative to your own fitness level and it doesn't have to be intimidating. Listen to your body, and move at a pace that is challenging to you specifically. The other piece of the puzzle is strength/resistance training, which is one of the best ways to lose extra weight and keep it off - it also has a very long list of health benefits that walking doesn't quite cover. If you are trying to lose weight through walking, one of the best things that you can do to boost the chances of success for your efforts is to use a pedometer. Pedometers are extremely cheap and can go a long ways in helping you determine how many miles you walk in a day, and how many more you might need to walk in order to lose weight."

"text": "\"Browse > Home > Kitchenware Measuring Spoons Measuring Spoons © Denzil Green Measuring spoons are special, standardized spoons used to measure very small quantities of ingredients by volume quickly and accurately. Even in metric countries, many small quantities of ingredients are measured with measuring spoons rather than by weight, because it's too much bother to weigh them out. In metric countries, they are even referred to as teaspoons, rather than by referring to their metric volume in millilitres. A French recipe wouldn't call for 15 ml of dried sage; it would call for \"\"une cuillère\"\" (a teaspoon.) That being said, most Europeans \"\"don't sweat the small stuff\"\" when it comes to measuring spoons. They just whip a spoon out of the drawer. If pulling any old spoon out of the drawer seems shocking, bear in mind that there are no official standards-checkers for North American measuring spoons: it's not uncommon that one set can vary from another by as much as 25%. Teaspoons and tablespoons are unofficial measurements. They're not legally defined because they aren't used in commerce or in science, so they never seemed to merit the attention of government. In North America, compliance in measurement accuracy for any measuring utensils isn't enforced."

"text": "Home Remedies: The Many Medicinal Uses of Vinegar Emergency Outdoors on July 11th 2012Vinegar has been a useful medicine for thousands of years, crossing continents and cultures, assisting doctors and helping ailing populations. While current medicine focuses almost exclusively on complex chemical and drug treatments, vinegar is still being studied for its potential uses in both complementary and orthodox medicine. As a home remedy, it is reputed to soothe almost anything from joint paint and sore throats to eczema and fatigue and is also beneficial to weight loss. Apple cider vinegar is the favorite therapeutic vinegar and is used in all the remedies featured here. Organic apple cider has further benefits, so whenever possible use it as your remedy base. It must be stressed that prior to self-diagnosis, it is essential to contact your medical professional to discuss your health problem (s). A small warning: Vinegar contains acetic acid, and acid and tooth enamel don’t mix well. Be aware that when ingesting vinegar as a remedy, it is best to dilute it with water. Prolonged use of vinegar can cause damage to your teeth – so play it safe and water it down. Ear, Nose & Throat Swimmer’s Ear The build up of moisture in the ear canal is known as “swimmer’s ear” and when aggravated by the presence of bacteria, it can cause extreme itchiness and pain."

Everyone is shocked when she decides to have a baby but refuses to identify the father. Her daughter Grace manages to grow and thrive in the chaos of her mother’s rock ’n’ roll lifestyle. But, as a teenager, she longs for a “normal” life with friends her own age. When she talks her mother into letting her go—under a fictitious name—to an elite boarding school, Grace discovers a number of things about her mom—and herself—that she never expected.” ( Available at Amazon.com ).

"text": "Input and Output Devices Before a computer can process your data, you need some method to input the data into the machine. The device you use will depend on what form this data takes (be it text, sound, artwork, etc.). Similarly, after the computer has processed your data, you often need to produce output of the results. This output could be a display on the computer screen, hard copy on printed pages, or even the audio playback of music you composed on the computer. The terms “input” and “output” are used both as verbs to describe the process of entering or displaying the data, and as nouns referring to the data itself entered into or displayed by the computer. Below we discuss the variety of peripheral devices used for computer input and output. Input Devices Keyboard The computer keyboard is used to enter text information into the computer, as when you type the contents of a report. The keyboard can also be used to type commands directing the computer to perform certain actions. Commands are typically chosen from an on-screen menu using a mouse, but there are often keyboard shortcuts for giving these same commands. Keyboard - An Input Device In addition to the keys of the main keyboard (used for typing text), keyboards usually also have a numeric keypad (for entering numerical data efficiently), a bank of editing keys (used in text editing operations), and a row of function keys along the top (to easily invoke certain program functions)."

"text": "How to Connect Two or More Computers to One Monitor Here at my office, we have five servers that are controlled by a single mouse and keyboard and are connected to only one monitor for ease of administration and lack of extra space! If you have more than one desktop at home, maybe a Windows box and a test box with Linux installed, you can connect both computers to one monitor in three different ways: using the additional ports on the back of your monitor, using what is called a hardware KVM switch and using a software KVM switch . Additional Ports The easiest way to connect multiple computers to one monitor is to first check the back of your monitor to see how many inputs there are. On my monitor, I have an HDMI port, a DVI port and one VGA port. That means I can connect up to three different computers to my one monitor. Obviously, there are downsides to this approach because HDMI can carry the highest resolution with the most stability. DVI and VGA can also carry HD signals, but problems can start to occur at higher resolutions that require greater bandwidth. VGA also uses an analog signal as compared to a digital signal used by HDMI and DVI, but you probably won’t be able to tell the difference at lower resolutions. Hardware KVMA KVM switch, which shockingly stands for Keyboard, Video, Mouse, is a small piece of hardware that looks kind of like your wireless router, but instead of network ports, it has VGA or HDMI video ports and PS2 or USB mouse/keyboard ports. The device is very simple to use and usually requires no external power source!"

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Pen computer)navigation search Pen computing refers to any computer user-interface using a pen (or stylus) and tablet, rather than using devices such as a keyboards, joysticks or a mouse. Pen computing is also used to refer to the usage of mobile devices such as wireless tablet PCs, PDAs and GPS receivers. The term has been used to refer to the usage of any product allowing for mobile communication. An indication of such a device is a stylus or digital pen, generally used to press upon a graphics tablet or touchscreen, as opposed to using a more traditional interface such as a keyboard, keypad, mouse or touchpad. Historically, pen computing (defined as a computer system employing a user-interface using a pointing device plus handwriting recognition as the primary means for interactive user input) predates the use of a mouse and graphical display by at least two decades, starting with the Stylator [1] and RAND Tablet [2] systems of the 1950s and early 1960s. Contents [ hide ]1 General techniques1.1 Pointing/locator input1.2 Handwriting recognition1.3 Direct manipulation1.4 Gesture recognition2 History3 See also4 References5 External links General techniques [ edit]User interfaces for pen computing can be implemented in several ways. Actual systems generally employ a combination of these techniques. Pointing/locator input [ edit]The tablet and stylus are used as pointing devices, such as to replace a mouse. While a mouse is a relative pointing device (one uses the mouse to \"\"push the cursor around\"\" on a screen), a tablet is an absolute pointing device (one places the stylus where the cursor is to appear). There are a number of human factors to be considered when actually substituting a stylus and tablet for a mouse."

For Linux, I have created the ltunify tool which is described in detail on my article Logitech Unifying for Linux: Reverse Engineering and unpairing tool. Quick installation installations if you are in a hurry:sudo apt-get install git gcc git clone https://git.lekensteyn.nl/ltunify.git cd ltunify make install-home This will fetch the sources and install the program to $HOME/bin/ltunify, if $HOME/bin did not exist before, then you may have to re-login or reopen your terminal. After doing so, you can pair a new device with the sudo ltunify pair command and unpair devices with a command like sudo ltunify unpair mouse (be sure to have a second device that you can use after detaching your Unifying device!). A graphical tool is also available, Solaar. It has better support for functionality of newer devices such as swapping the functionality of FN keys. It is available though the ppa:daniel.pavel/solaar PPA (if you do not know how to install such a \"\"PPA\"\", see What are PPAs and how do I use them? )."

Three main types of rocks can be identified on the Earth's surface: igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic. The rock cycle is a model that describes how various geological processes create, modify and influence rocks. The rock cycle suggests that all rocks originated from magma. This model also suggests that all rock types can be melted back into magma by tectonic forces that return rock to the mantle. Time has a unique meaning to geoscientists. To a geoscientist time is not measured in seconds, minutes or days, but in eons, eras, periods, and epochs. Each one of these units measures time according to major geologic events that have occurred over the 4.6 billion years of Earth history. When a geoscientist mentions the Cretaceous we know that this is a time period that occurred between 65 to 144 million years ago.

"text": "The three causes of Metamorphism in Rocks Earth Science Metamorphism in geology is when one type of rock is transformed into another type of rock called a metamorphic rock. The word metamorphic comes from the Greek words meaning “change” and “form.” There are two main factors that can cause the conversion: heat, pressure. The presence of hydrothermal fluids at the time of transformation can also play a role in the resulting rock. Heat Geothermal gradients in the earth caused by radioactive decay are the most common cause of temperature differences and thus a cause of metamorphism. As a general rule, heat increases as depth into the earth increases. The gradient creates different types of rocks at different depths. Molten rock, or magma, beneath a particular geographical area results in more extreme variation in the gradients and metamorphic rock. Magma and lava flows can literally bake rocks turning them into other rocks in what is called contact metamorphism. This happens when the molten rock touches another type of rock."

Sedimentary rock covers about three quarters of the land on the Earth's surface. However, sedimentary rock makes up only about 5 percent of the top 10 miles (16 kilometers) of the Earth's crust. The other 95 percent consists of igneous and metamorphic rocks. Sedimentary rock is the softest of the three types of rock. Therefore, it is the quickest to erode. Igneous Rocks Igneous rocks are made from magma – molten rock. The word “igneous” comes from the Latin word for \"\"fire\"\". As magma cools, it solidifies. During this process, the minerals in the magma harden in a predictable sequence."

Facies are used mostly to establish different units of rock from adjacent units within a contiguous body of rock by physical, chemical, or biological means. Facies were an important development into the concept of stratigraphy because when compiled together, facies can generate a succession that can give insight into an assortment of different process and systems that acted on or within the region and rock record.

Throughout his life, Gressly made contributions and developed three key areas of geology; facies concepts and applications, stratigraphic correlations, and paleogeographic construction. Gressly is mostly remembered for his contribution of facies, but his devotion to fundamental stratigraphy would lay the groundwork for many geologists for years to come. ["

"text": "\"Metamorphic Rocks When rocks are subjected to elevated temperatures and pressures, for example due to deep burial in orogenic (mountain building) zones when two continents collide, they may become metamorphosed (metamorphism is from the Greek, to change in form). They slowly recrystallize while remaining in the solid state. This may takes thousands or millions of years. Metamorphism is essentially an isochemical process , i.e. the bulk chemical composition of a rock body is more or less unchanged from the protolith, or original rock. But the minerals may be largely recrystallized into a new mineral assemblage. In addition, new structural features are frequently imparted to the rocks, such as slaty cleavage or schistosity. Types of Metamorphism Metamorphic recrystallization is caused by one or both of 1) elevated temperatures and 2) high pressures1) Regional Metamorphism is the result of high pressures and elevated temperatures associated with deep burial in an orogenic belt. Platy minerals (micas) and elongate minerals (hornblende) recrystallize and/or rotate into a new orientation perpendicular to the applied stress, while other minerals recrystallize into new crystals which are stable at the higher pressures and temperatures. Foliation is the result of the parallel arrangement of (micas, etc.) in a plane perpendicular to the maximum principal applied stress."

The Western Gneiss Complex (WGC) of Norway comprises variably retrogressed high-pressure (HP) and ultrahigh-pressure (UHP) eclogite bodies enclosed in predominantly felsic amphibolite-facies rocks. The Drøsdal body, located in the Sunnfjord area, is one of the largest and best-preserved eclogites in the WGC, and comprises over ca. 3 km 2 of exposed eclogite-facies rocks. It is an excellent example of an eclogite tectonite, and displays a wealth of structures formed during deformation at a minimum depth of 50 km and peak temperatures of ca. 800 °C. Large volumes of mylonites with the eclogite-facies assemblage garnet±clinopyroxene±quartz±amphibole±clinozoisite±phengite±kyanite±rutile are preserved. Structures associated with the eclogite-facies metamorphism include E–W-trending isoclinal folds, boudinage, hinge-parallel lineations, and meter-scale kyanite-dominated veins. The Drøsdal body was tightly folded on the kilometer scale under eclogite-facies conditions. Subsequently, the shapes of the Drøsdal body and other mafic bodies in the Sunnfjord area were modified during eclogite-to-amphibolite-facies E–W-directed stretching, to give boudin-like lenses."

It is subject to chemical weathering that dissolves it and carries the solutions into the sea where they add to the general sea water. Obsidian does not have a crystalline structure, but is a mixture of atoms that has been frozen because of fast cooling. If it is subjected to metamorphic temperatures and pressures it might dissolve if there is any fluid in the environment. Or its component atoms could mobilize and form minerals which might make something like a mica schist. Clay C · 8 years ago0 0 Comment Asker's rating Obsidian is an igneous rock. Any and all igneous rocks can turn into any and all metamorphic or sedimentary rocks.

"text": "\"GEOLOGY/GEOPHYSICS 101 Program 22Metamorphic Rocks Well, hello, again and welcome. I'm glad you could join us today for our program on \"\"Metamorphic Rocks. \"\" Well, in past lessons we've learned how atoms are rearranged when they're exposed to new conditions at the Earth's surface. We've seen how chemical weathering rearranges atoms; we've seen how atoms in collections, piles of sediments are deposited and turned into sedimentary rock, but rearrangements of atoms also take place when rocks are buried deep in the Earth's crust and exposed to heat,pressure, and hot water. Metamorphic rocks are formed from pre- existing rocks as atoms arrange themselves in new crystal structures. Everything we know comes indirectly from occurrences of rocks and laboratory studies, but we do know that metamorphic rocks usually form at plate boundaries in connection with mountain building processes and with igneous intrusions. The conditions deep in the earth are different enough that these different conditions cause minerals different from those which form at the surface. For example, surface weathering process, which is also a change of the types of minerals causes hard rocks to change into small crumbly pieces. Metamorphism, on the other hand, takes place at high temperature and pressure and changes those same soft sedimentary rocks back into hard crystalline solids. Metamorphic rocks are complicated because you have only a few parent rock types which can provide different kinds of atoms for starting materials like the basic ingredients used in cooking, but the different conditions create many different products."

Nelson Tulane University Metamorphic Rocks- Classification, Field Gradients, & Facies This document last updated on 01-Apr-2004Metamorphism is defined as follows: The mineralogical and structural adjustment of solid rocks to physical and chemical conditions that have been imposed at depths below the near surface zones of weathering and diagenesis and which differ from conditions under which the rocks in question originated. The word \"\" Metamorphism \"\" comes from the Greek: meta = change, morph = form, so metamorphism means to change form. In geology this refers to the changes in mineral assemblage and texture that result from subjecting a rock to conditions such pressures, temperatures, and chemical environments different from those under which the rock originally formed. Note that Diagenesis is also a change in form that occurs in sedimentary rocks. In geology, however, we restrict diagenetic processes to those which occur at temperatures below 200 o C and pressures below about 300 MPa (MPa stands for Mega Pascals), this is equivalent to about 3 kilobars of pressure (1kb = 100 MPa). Metamorphism, therefore occurs at temperatures and pressures higher than 200 o C and 300 MPa. Rocks can be subjected to these higher temperatures and pressures as they are buried deeper in the Earth. Such burial usually takes place as a result of tectonic processes such as continental collisions or subduction. The upper limit of metamorphism occurs at the pressure and temperature where melting of the rock in question begins."

Angela's language of origin is Old Greek. It is predominantly used in Dutch, English, German, Italian, Romanian, Russian, Slavic, and Spanish. The meaning of Angela is 'messenger of God, angel'. It is a biblical name derived from angelos meaning 'angel, messenger' ; angelus 'angel'. In the past, this was mainly a Roman Catholic name often reserved for children born on the feast of Saint Michael and All Angels on 29 September. The name was borne by Saint Angela Merici of Brescia (1474-1540) the founder of the Order of Ursulines. It was adopted by English speakers in the 18th century. In the UK, the name is often associated with the fictional dancing mouse Angelina Ballerina in the popular children's books (1982-) by Katharine Holabird, while in the US, the name is famous from the actress Angelina Jolie (1975-)."

It was introduced to England from Italy in the 17th century. In literature, the name has appeared in Italian poet Ariosto's epic Orlando Furioso (1532) which deals with the love of Charlemagne's paladin Orlando for Angelica. Angelica is also the name of Juliet's nurse in Shakespeare's tragedy Romeo and Juliet (1595), and the name of the saucy, independent young woman in William Congreve's play Love for Love (1695).

(Latin angelus; Greek aggelos; from the Hebrew for \"\"one going\"\" or \"\"one sent\"\"; messenger). The word is used in Hebrew to denote indifferently either a divine or human messenger. The Septuagint renders it by aggelos which also has both significations. The Latin version, however, distinguishes the divine or spirit-messenger from the human, rendering the original in the one case by angelus and in the other by legatus or more generally by nuntius. In a few passages the Latin version is misleading, the word angelus being used where nuntius would have better expressed the meaning, e.g. Isaiah 18:2; 33:3-6 . It is with the spirit-messenger alone that we are here concerned. We have to discussthe meaning of the term in the Bible,the offices of the angels,the names assigned to the angels,the distinction between good and evil spirits,the divisions of the angelic choirs,the question of angelic appearances, andthe development of the scriptural idea of angels. The angels are represented throughout the Bible as a body of spiritual beings intermediate between God and men: \"\"You have made him ( man) a little less than the angels\"\" ( Psalm 8:6 ). They, equally with man, are created beings; \"\"praise ye Him, all His angels: praise ye Him, all His hosts . . ."

"text": "\"Satanism Satan (Biblical character) Surnames What is Satan's last name?9 Answers Willis Kier, 19+ Years of Intense Bible Study Answered Jan 17, 2018Since you ask using the biblical title, “Satan,” I will answer simply from the Bible. The title of “Satan” simply means “Resister.” It is no more a name than someone on death row being called “Murderer.” Similarly, “Devil” means “Slanderer.” Both titles are meant to describe the position Satan has taken toward God and God's purpose. Many other descriptive titles are given to Satan in the Bible, including “the original serpent,” “the dragon,” and “Lucifer.” Once again, these all describe his actions, and are not his name. Side point, “Lucifer” means “angel of light.” Some assume this was Satan's given name in the heavens, before his fall. However, the Bible clarifies at 2 Corinthians 11:14, “Satan himself keeps disguising himself as an angel of light.”"

These angel names are of those angels considered to be of a bad nature and not names of good angels. Fallen angel names find their roots within ancient cultures such as Babylon, Assyria, and Egypt, as well as within Jewish, Christian and Muslim lore. Over thousands of years, angel names have evolved in spelling, meaning and use within religions, mysticism - even magic where the name of an angel is thought important in order to invoke angelic help. Some rituals are said to invoke good angels, while other rituals are performed to attempt to invoke fallen angels. Many good angel names include a suffix word meaning of God (-el), or yah, which means Lord. This is a primary distinction between higher angels and those who have fallen. The use of 'el' within angelic names portrays the importance of the angel's connection with the Divine (God). Both the good and fallen names of angels are traditionally and superstitiously believed to be powerful by some people. Abaddon - fallen angel of death whose name means \"\"to destroy. \"\""

Most of the Karavas in Sri Lanka belong to one or more of the illustrious Suriya clans;Kurukulasuriya, Warnakulasuriya, Mihindukulasuriya, Bharathakulasuriya, Manukulasuriya, Wijayakulasuriyaor Arasakulasuriya, which are clear indicators of their descent from the Kshatriya Solar dynasties. These Clan namesalso appear to indicate distinct streams of migrations. Other Karawe clans are Vadugas, Koon Karavas (such as Samarakoon meaning 'king of war', Weerakoon meaning 'brave king'and Wijekoon meaning 'victorious king'. The name of Karava King Wimaladharmasuriya I (1591-1604) before his coronation was Koon-Appu Bandara.

Bibliography Chapter I: Introduction to the work William Shakespeare was a very famous English actor, playwright and poet of the late 16th and early 17th centuries. [ 1] Shakespeare´s works consist of 37 plays, including 10 tragedies, 10 histories and 17 comedies, and 154 sonnets. [ 2] Biographers tend to divide Shakespeare´s works into four periods, first called the “sanguine period”, full of “youthful life and imagination”, which lasted until 1595 [3], the second period from 1595 to 1601, consisting of plays about the human nature, the third period from 1601 to 1608, consisting mostly of tragedies, and the fourth period from 1608 to 1613, during which “The Tempest”, one of his last plays, was written. [ 4]The following work deals with Shakespeare´s play “The Tempest”, which was probably written between 1610 and 1611. [ 5] The play is set on an island, where Prospero, a magician and the former Duke of Milan, and his daughter Miranda, watch a ship wreck. The shipwrecked make it ashore, among whom are Antonio, Prospero´s brother, Alonso, King of Naples, his son Ferdinand, the King´s brother Sebastian, the steward Stephano, the jester Trinculo, lord Gonzalo and the minor lords Adrian and Francisco."

The etymology of her name (ευρυ- \"\"wide\"\" or \"\"broad\"\" + οπ� \"\"eye (s)\"\" or \"\"face\"\") [2] suggests that Europa represented a lunar cow, at least at some symbolic level. Who was the Lunar Cow? Hathor In Egyptian mythology, Hathor (Egyptian for house of Horus) was originally a personification of the Milky Way, which was seen as the milk that flowed from the udders of a heavenly cow. Hathor was an ancient goddess, worshipped as a cow-deity from at least 2700 BC, during the 2nd dynasty, and possibly even by the Scorpion King. The name Hathor refers to the encirclement by her, in the form of the Milky Way, of the night sky and consequently of the god of the sky, Horus. She was originally seen as the daughter of Ra, the creator whose own cosmic birth was formalized as the Ogdoad [8] cosmogeny. An alternate name for her, which persisted for 3,000 years, was Mehturt (also spelt Mehurt, Mehet-Weret, and Mehet-uret), meaning great flood, a direct reference to her being the Milky Way."

"text": "\"First Dynasty of Egypt The First Dynasty of ancient Egypt is often combined with the Second Dynasty under the group title, Early Dynastic Period of Egypt. At that time the capital was Thinis. Information about this dynasty is derived from a few monuments and other objects bearing royal names, the most important being the Narmer palette and macehead as well as Den and Qa'a king lists. No detailed records of the first two dynasties have survived, except for the terse lists on the Palermo stone. The hieroglyphs were fully developed by then, and their shapes would be used with little change for more than three thousand years. Large tombs of pharaohs at Abydos and Naqada, in addition to cemeteries at Saqqara and Helwan near Memphis, reveal structures built largely of wood and mud bricks, with some small use of stone for walls and floors. Stone was used in quantity for the manufacture of ornaments, vessels, and occasionally, for statues. Tamarix - tamarisk, salt cedar was used to build boats such as the Abydos Boats. One of the most important indigenous woodworking techniques was the fixed Mortise and tenon joint. A fixed tenon was made by shaping the end of one timber to fit into a mortise (hole) that is cut into a second timber."

I poked around the web a bit and found a site that claimed that a dollar bill weighs one gram. But you can’t really trust random stuff that you read on the internet, now, can you? So I decided to investigate this myself…While it might have been easiest to drop by the bank, withdraw a million bucks, and weigh it, I didn’t have time to get to the bank. So I did the next best thing… I weighed some money (a lot less than a million dollars) and then whipped out a calculator. First off, how much does a dollar bill weigh? I weighed ten singles and found that the internet was right. They weighed in at a total of 9.83 grams, just shy of a gram apiece (I’m assuming that these were a bit light due to wear and tear)."

( Sean Kilpatrick / THE CANADIAN PRESS)By Bruce Cheadle The Canadian Press Fri., Jan. 13, 2012OTTAWA—Steel yourself, Canada — new one-dollar and two-dollar coins are about to become the latest version of the proverbial plugged nickel. In an effort to save taxpayers about $16 million annually, new versions of the loonie and toonie will be introduced this spring made from steel, replacing the more expensive nickel found in the current versions of the coins. A detailed summary of the change says the new coins will be slightly lighter, cheaper to produce and ship, and harder to counterfeit. They’re also going to cost Canada’s coin-operated industries about $40 million in recalibration costs to make vending machines recognize the new coinage, says the government. And businesses who count their coins by weight will have to first separate the old currency from the new. The new coinage was announced in last year’s federal budget but only received final cabinet approval late last month. The rollout has been delayed in part because some manufacturers in the vending industry weren’t ready to handle the new coins, according to Kim Lockie, the past president of Canadian Automatic Merchandising Association."

However, if you have the patience, reconditioning them yourself can save you more than 90% of the cost of having a car a dealer do the job. Last fall, I bought my friend’s dysfunctional 2003 Civic Hybrid. It was not something I needed, but it did have only 110,000 miles on the odometer and some nice custom features—and it was cheap! Plus, it had been well-maintained: All the dealer checkups and service had been properly performed. But besides the car’s computer spewing some error codes, it also had performance issues suggesting expensive battery problems. The car was very sluggish and its mpg had dropped off—from more than 50 mpg to 35 to 40 mpg. It stalled easily; the auto-stop function—which turns off the IC engine when the car comes to a full stop—did not work; and, of course, the “check engine” and integrated motor assist (IMA) warning lights wouldn’t shut off. The Honda dealership wanted $3,200 to replace the battery pack with a factory-refurbished one (new cells are not available for a Civic Hybrid of that vintage). Replacement battery packs are made from dead packs dealers return to Honda, which recovers the remaining good subpacks for reuse."

"text": "Hang On To Your Nickels Posted 05/16/2012 by Rock. Last month I discussed the wisdom of holding on to any pennies you may have around the house that were minted prior to 1982 because the copper content of those pennies is now close to three and a half cents per penny, and expected to rise. But what about saving nickels? Don’t they contain copper also? Yes they do, and they also contain enough of the metal nickel to make them worth hanging on to. But it is the copper content in nickels where the real value lies. There is little question that nickels will take up much less storage space than pennies, so if you are inclined to invest in copper, a one hundred dollar box of nickels will take up a lot less space than four $25.00 boxes of pennies. And with any pennies you buy from the bank, you’ll have to go through all those rolls first and separate the copper ones from the zinc that were minted after 1982. Some people don’t mind going to all that bother to find a bit of treasure, but I’m not one of those people. As I wrote previously, there seems to be only 18-23 percent of copper pennies still in circulation, so the chances are pretty good that most of the pennies you buy from the bank will be mostly zinc."

I'm adding my response to your collection because I want to make sure you know WHY this is so. In the laws for exponents, we are told that under multiplication, with like bases, you add the exponents to get the result Thus, (x^3) (x^2) = x^5 This makes sense because x^3 is (x) (x) (x) and x^2 is (x) (x), so (x^3) (x^2)= (x) (x) (x) (x) (x), or x^5 Similarly, in division, x^5/x^2 = (x) (x) (x) (x) (x)/ (x) (x)=x^3 The rule here becomes \"\"subtract the exponents when dividing\"\". The bases must, of course, be the same. But look what we get if the problem is x^2/x^5 !"

This lesson will shed some light on the negative exponent: what it means and how to work with it in a math problem. What are Exponents? Exponents are numbers that are written as a superscript. The exponent tells a mathematician how many times a certain number should be multiplied to itself. For example:2^3 = 2*2 *2 = 8The word exponent is from the Latin expo, meaning out of, and ponere, meaning place. The first recorded modern usage of the concept was in the 1500's. However, the concept of squared and cubed numbers dates back to ancient Babylon. Exponents are useful mathematical and scientific shorthand. Where it would be very confusing to try and perform mathematical calculations with numbers such as 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000, it becomes not so bad if the number is written as 6.02*10^23."

When n is a positive integer, exponentiation corresponds to repeated multiplication of the base: that is, b n is the product of multiplying n bases: The exponent is usually shown as a superscript to the right of the base. In that case, b n is called \"\"b raised to the n-th power\"\", \"\"b raised to the power of n\"\", or \"\"the n-th power of b\"\". When n is a positive integer and b is not zero, b − n is naturally defined as 1b n, preserving the property b n× b m= b n + m. With exponent −1, b −1 is equal to 1b, and is the reciprocal of b. The definition of exponentiation can be extended to allow any real or complex exponent. Exponentiation by integer exponents can also be defined for a wide variety of algebraic structures, including matrices. Exponentiation is used extensively in many fields, including economics, biology, chemistry, physics, and computer science, with applications such as compound interest, population growth, chemical reaction kinetics, wave behavior, and public-key cryptography."

These rules just follow on from what we learned in the first 2 sections in this chapter, Integral Exponents and Fractional Exponents. Expressing in simplest radical form just means simplifying a radical so that there are no more square roots, cube roots, 4th roots, etc left to find. It also means removing any radicals in the denominator of a fraction. Laws of Radicals Let's take the positive case first.n -th root of a Positive Number to the Power n We met this idea in the last section, Fractional Exponents . Basically, finding the n -th root of a (positive) number is the opposite of raising the number to the power n, so they effectively cancel each other out. These 4 expressions have the same value:n a n = ( n a)n = n ( a n) = a The 2nd item in the equality above means:\"\"take the n -th root first, then raise the result to the power n \"\"The 3rd item means:\"\"raise a to the power n then find the n -th root of the result\"\"Both steps lead back to the a that we started with. For the simple case where n = 2, the following 4 expressions all have the same value:a 2 = ( a) 2 = ( a 2) = a For example, if a = 9:9 2 = ( 9) 2= ( 9 2) = 9The second item means: \"\"Find the square root of 9 (answer: 3) then square it (answer 9 )\"\"."

"text": "\"navigation search In computing, floating point describes a system for numerical representation in which a string of digits (or bits) represents a rational number . The term floating point refers to the fact that the radix point (decimal point, or, more commonly in computers, binary point) can \"\"float\"\"; that is, it can be placed anywhere relative to the significant digits of the number. This position is indicated separately in the internal representation, and floating-point representation can thus be thought of as a computer realization of scientific notation. Over the years, several different floating-point representations have been used in computers; however, for the last ten years the most commonly encountered representation is that defined by the IEEE 754 Standard. The advantage of floating-point representation over fixed-point (and integer) representation is that it can support a much wider range of values. For example, a fixed-point representation that has seven decimal digits, with the decimal point assumed to be positioned after the fifth digit, can represent the numbers 12345.67, 8765.43, 123.00, and so on, whereas a floating-point representation (such as the IEEE 754 decimal32 format) with seven decimal digits could in addition represent 1.234567, 123456.7, 0.00001234567, 1234567000000000, and so on. The floating-point format needs slightly more storage (to encode the position of the radix point), so when stored in the same space, floating-point numbers achieve their greater range at the expense of slightly less precision. The speed of floating-point operations is an important measure of performance for computers in many application domains. It is measured in FLOPS. World-class supercomputer installations are generally rated in teraflops."

"text": "\"Home »Math What Are Exponents in Math? By Raleigh Kung; Updated April 24, 2017Exponents in math are typically superscript numbers or variables written beside another number or variable. Exponentiation is any mathematical operation which uses exponents. Each form of exponent must follow unique rules in order to be solved; in addition, some exponential forms are central to real life rules and applications. Notation The notation of an exponent in math is a pair of numbers, symbols or both. The number written normally is called the base number, while the number written in superscript is the exponent. The root form of most exponents is a number multiplied with itself by the exponent’s number of times. For example, the notation 5 x 5 x 5 is the root form of the exponentiation, 5 raised to 3, sometimes written as 5^3. Order of Operation In the order of operations, PEMDAS, solving exponents is second order. Exponents are resolved after all equations in parenthesis have been completed, but before doing any multiplication and division."

As you may have noticed in one of the previous lessons, the simplest form of the problem a -2 is simply The problem was simplified by just changing its exponent to the opposite sign (from negative to positive) and moving it to the bottom of a fraction. The next problem we are simplifying has both negative and positive exponents. The variables with positive exponents are left alone while the variables with negative exponents are moved to the bottom of the fraction. The next problem is already a fraction. The top and bottom both contain negative exponents. Since d -3 on the bottom has a negative exponent, it is moved to the top of the fraction (numerator). Since the c -3 on the top of the fraction has a negative exponent, it is moved to the bottom of the fraction (denominator). The problem and work is shown below. The next problem is a fraction with a negative exponent on top, but only positive exponents on the bottom: The x -2 on top of the fraction bar is moved below it, and its exponent is changed from negative two to positive two."

"text": "\"Home »Math How to Write Numbers Without Exponents By Richard Gaughan; Updated March 13, 2018Like so many other tools of mathematics, exponents are shortcuts. Multiplication is another example of a mathematical shortcut — multiplying a first number by a second is a shortcut for adding. Write the first number down again and again until you’ve written it down the number of times equaling the second number, and add them all together; that’s the multiplication shortcut. A base number to the power of an exponent is almost the same thing. Write the base number down again and again until you’ve written it down the number of times expressed in the exponent — but this time multiply the numbers together. That’s how you get rid of exponents. Expanding Write each base a number of times equal to the exponent. Multiply the bases together. For example, 2^5 can be written as 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2, or 32. Take into account negative exponents."

Paragraphing helps readers to understand and process your ideas into meaningful units of thought. What do paragraphs do? Imagine reading this page without paragraph breaks. Paragraphs create order and logic by helping your reader recognize the boundaries where one point ends and another begins. How long should a paragraph be? In a first draft, it may make sense to set a goal for length. For example, you can set a goal of writing four to six sentences per paragraph: in that number of sentences you can announce an idea, prove that idea with evidence, and explain why this evidence matters by linking it to the overall goal of your paper. In the final version of your paper you may have a shorter paragraph or two. Short paragraphs call a lot of attention to themselves, so they can effectively emphasize a point."

Instead, we have suggested that the students should be able to comment on and edit their own paper to a certain extent. The advantages of such an approach would be raising awareness of the student and reducing the workload of the teacher. The exercises we have here are organized in such a way that the students will concentrate on only one thing (e.g. organization, grammar, vocabulary choice, etc.) at a time. For each type of mistake, we first repeat the information presented in detail in Paragraph Development and The Essay, and then provide a writing exercise about it. For each type, the student first sees the original writing. Then, he corrects the writing by typing in the text box provided, and then sees the teacher-corrected version. The teacher-corrected version is only a suggestion. There may be many ways to correct a mistake."

For example, a blog post about the JAWS screen reader (amongst other things) and how poorly it supports the reading of paragraph’s in HTML, is being cited to re-inforce arguments in an opinion piece about web accessibility, which in turn is being cited in other debates. In attempt to introduce a little perspective, here is some information about how JAWS reads text. JAWS support for the HTML pelement. Users can navigate content via the p element in HTML, by using the P (move to next p element) and Shift-P (move to the previous p element) keys. When these commands are used, JAWS will move to the next or previous p element and read the text contained in that p element and then stop reading. The user can then move to and start reading the next paragraph by pressing the P key. Using this command, JAWS will stop reading at the end of each paragraph independent of style or punctuation. This was tested with JAWS 8.0 and 9.0 on Windows XP using a test page.

Review your main points and basically recap on what youre actually talking about. Look at your thesis statement or topic sentence, then repeat (NOT word-for-word). For the first sentence of your conclusion; try a question, a shocking statement, or a statistic (but make sure you don't introduce any new information). Another way: The conclusion is the end of the essay. It is the last part of the essay and it is the part that the reader may remember most. It should be clear and avoid confusing the reader. The reader expects the conclusion to do some or all of the following: Rephrase the question Summarize the main ideas Give your opinion, if you haven't given it already Look to the future (say what will happen if the situation continues or changes)The reader DOES NOT expect new information in the conclusion."

"text": "< How to Write an Essaynavigation search Parts of an Essay — Traditionally, it has been taught that a formal essay consists of three parts: the introductory paragraph or introduction, the body paragraphs, and the concluding paragraph. An essay does not need to be this simple, but it is a good starting point. The introductory paragraph accomplishes three purposes: it captures the reader’s interest, it suggests the importance of the essay’s topic, and it ends with a thesis sentence. Often, the thesis sentence states a claim that consists of two or more related points. For example, a thesis might read: A college essay has an introductory paragraph, several body paragraphs, and a concluding paragraph. You are telling the reader what you think are the most important points which need to be addressed in your essay. For this reason, you need to relate the introduction directly to the question or topic. A strong thesis is essential to a good essay, as each paragraph of your essay should be related back to your thesis or else deleted. Thus, the thesis establishes the key foundation for your essay. A strong thesis not only states an idea, but also uses solid examples to back it up."

"text": "\"Differences Between the Topic Sentence and the Main Idea Janine Murphy Updated April 13, 2017An essay is the sum of all its parts. Each essay contains particular pieces which, when considered as a whole, signify a central theme the author expects the reader to understand. Similarly, paragraphs also consist of particular components, consisting of multiple sentences united by a central idea. This concept represents the main idea of the paragraph, which is introduced by a topic sentence. Key Concept Identification Many students struggle with differentiating between the topic sentence and the main idea of an essay. An easy way to identify the difference is by focusing on the role each plays in developing the thesis of the essay. The main idea of a paragraph represents the specific point being made in the paragraph. It is a summary of what the argument is trying to argue. A topic sentence explicitly defines what the paragraph will argue, in general terms. For example, if the main idea of the paragraph is that cell phone use has resulted in a decline in spelling ability, a topic sentence would state that argument in clear language: \"\"Cell phone use among children is causing a general decline in spelling ability. \"\""

What is a paragraph? Paragraphs are the building blocks of papers. Many students define paragraphs in terms of length: a paragraph is a group of at least five sentences, a paragraph is half a page long, etc. In reality, though, the unity and coherence of ideas among sentences is what constitutes a paragraph. A paragraph is defined as “a group of sentences or a single sentence that forms a unit” (Lunsford and Connors 116). Length and appearance do not determine whether a section in a paper is a paragraph. For instance, in some styles of writing, particularly journalistic styles, a paragraph can be just one sentence long. Ultimately, a paragraph is a sentence or group of sentences that support one main idea. In this handout, we will refer to this as the “controlling idea,” because it controls what happens in the rest of the paragraph."

They are the “building blocks” of your writing, dividing it into easy-to-follow, comprehensible parts. Essays are usually made up entirely of paragraphs; reports or other types of more technical writing will be written in sections, but within the sections there will be paragraphs as well as bullet points, lists, figures etc. How long should a paragraph be? As noted above, a paragraph needs to develop an idea or new aspect of an argument, and it is impossible to do this in just a sentence or two. It is usually recommended, therefore, that in typical student writing a paragraph should be a minimum of five or six sentences. It shouldn’t normally be shorter than this, but may be longer, depending on the overall length of the writing (the longer the writing, the longer the paragraphs can be: books may contain some very long paragraphs). The most common mistake made in student writing is to make paragraphs too short. If you just write a sentence or two, two or three lines, and then start what looks like a new paragraph, it leaves a bad impression."

In autumn the leaves of these trees fall and cover the riverbanks like golden snow. Second, on the other side of the town is Wheaton Hill, which is unusual because it is very steep.

What is 3.5 Essay Format? The 3.5 essay format is a common homework assignment for students from elementary school all the way to high school. Most essays focus on a theme, such as why homework helps students, or why bullying is wrong. These essays, being only five paragraphs in length, are fairly short and easy to compose. This essay format is a favorite of English teachers, and are often used for essay tests. A 3.5 essay is made up of five paragraphs: an introduction, three body paragraphs and a conclusion. The introduction includes a thesis statement of which the essay focuses on, such as:“The best place for a summer family vacation is Cooperstown because of the rural scenery, the educational attractions and the Baseball Hall of Fame. ”The following three body paragraphs focus on the three points made in the thesis statement; in this case, the scenery, attractions and Baseball Hall of Fame. After these three points have been made, the conclusion summarizes the essay."

Blood types are important to understand because patients with rare blood types can have serious complications (e.g., death) if they receive the wrong one during a transfusion. Before we delve into the details of a rare blood type, let's first discuss the basic genetics behind the blood typing system we're all familiar with: The ABO blood group. ABO Blood Group The ABO blood group is based on three different versions of a particular gene (known as alleles). One version produces the \"\"A antigen,\"\" a second produces the \"\"B antigen\"\" and a third produces the \"\"O antigen.\"\" In general, humans possess two copies of every gene. Therefore, a person who has two copies of the A allele would have the genotype AA and would have type A blood. A person who has the A allele and the O allele would have genotype AO and would also have type A blood. ( The reason is because the O allele doesn't generate an antibody response; more on that in a little bit.) Genotypes BB and BO yield type B blood. A person with genotype AB has type AB blood, and a person with genotype OO has type O blood."

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

In humans, the main blood group systems are the ABO system, the Rh system and the MN system. More Bite-Sized Q&As Below2. Why is it important to determine the blood types of the donor and the recipient in transfusions? Red blood cells have different antigens in the outer surface of their plasma membrane; for example, the antigens A and B of the ABO system are glycoproteins of the membrane. If a donor has red blood cells with antigens not present in the red blood cells of the recipient (a lack of transfusion compatibility), the immune system of the recipient recognizes these molecules as actual antigens (or rather, foreign substances) and triggers a defense response, producing specific antibodies against those antigens. The transfused red blood cells are then destroyed by these antibodies and the recipient may even die. Blood Types Review - Image Diversity: blood donation The ABO Blood Group System3.

Blood types are the basis of all Blood classification systems. This proved disastrous. In the early 1800s an English obstetrician, James Blundell, came up with the idea of human Blood used exclusively for human transfusion. Not until the 1900s were the, no commonly accepted, basic four Blood types identified by Karl Landsteiner. Subsequently, the success of Blood transfusion significantly increased when patients were transfused with their same type. Now, research has shown that transfusion with the exact type is even better.

See how genetic interactions play a key role in this trait. Alright, so Adrian is feeling pretty good now. He's already determined the genetic basis of two flying hamster traits - coat color and ear size - and he found that both traits are controlled by a single gene in which one trait is dominant over a recessive trait. With a little help from us, he's also rediscovered Mendel's laws, which taught him that alleles on homologous chromosomes segregate into separate gametes (Law of Segregation) and also that alleles of one gene segregate independently of the alleles of another gene (Law of Independent Assortment). Puzzling Tail Color Results So during his latest trip to collect new and exciting strains of flying hamsters, he notices flying hamsters with different tail colors, and he decides that that's the next genetic trait that he's going to try to study. Like he's always done, he goes ahead and he establishes some true-breeding strains and begins his experimental crosses. He starts out first with some strains of brown hamsters with blue tails and another strain of brown hamsters with yellow tails and mates those guys together.

Exceptions are seen in cases of twins or multiple births that are fertilized from the same egg. Human beings have two alleles with each pair inherited from each parent. An allele represents a gene.

"text": "\"Science & Mathematics Biology What is Co-Dominance and Multiple Alleles in Biology? Follow 8 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: co Dominance: A condition in which both alleles of a gene pair in a heterozygote are fully expressed, with neither one being dominant or recessive to the other. Codominance In codominance, neither phenotype is completely dominant. Instead, the heterozygous individual expresses both phenotypes. A common example is the ABO blood group system. The gene for blood types has three alleles: A, B, and i. i causes O type and is recessive to both A and B. The A and B alleles are codominant with each other. When a person has both A and B, they have type AB blood. Example Punnett square for a father with A and i, and a mother with B and i: --------A ------i B ---AB------B i -----A-------O Amongst the very few codominant genetic diseases in humans, one relatively common one is A1AD, in which the genotypes Pi00, Pi Z0, Pi ZZ, and Pi SZ all have their more-or-less characteristic clinical representations.

This article focuses on the genetic basis and inheritance of blood types. ABO Blood Types Red blood cells are responsible not only for the blood color but for carrying vital oxygen molecules to our body’s tissues and cells. Blood types are classified according to the absence or presence of substances on the surface of blood cells. The surface of blood cells are covered with glycoproteins which project out into the blood stream. These glycoprotein chains (called agglutinogens) can be detected by antibodies. There are two different types of agglutinogens, type “A” and type “B”. The ABO blood type classification system uses the presence or absence of these molecules to categorize blood into four types: blood type A (antigen-A present), blood type B (antigen B present), blood type AB (both antigen A and B present), and blood type O (antigen A and B absent). The presence or absence of antigens A or B has a genetic basis The Genetics of Blood Types Having examined the biochemistry behind the ABO blood types let’s look at the genetics of the blood types.

It is also known as fluid tissue present in blood vessels Structure [ edit]Human blood groups depends on the functioning of glycosyltransferases, enzymes that catalyze the formation of glycosidic bond between the Structure and function of the human blood. Specific oligosaccharide antigens attach to the proteins and lipids on the surface of erythrocytes. Those attached to proteins have a serine or threonine residue or ceramide lipid intermediate. The most basic oligosaccharide attached is called the O antigen (also referred to as the H antigen). This O antigen is the base oligosaccharide found in all three blood types AB, A, and B. The O antigen is of the form (—Lipid—Glucose—Galactose— N -acetylglucosamine—Galactose—Fucose). Blood type O only has the O antigen attached to the red blood cells. Blood type A is formed through the addition of the A antigen, which has N -acetylgalactosamine (Gal NAc) glycosidically bonded to the O antigen. Similarly for blood type B, the B antigen has an additional galactose forming a glycosidic bond to the O antigen."

Let to be it well understand in an easy way. While a child could have the same blood type as one of his/her parents, it doesn’t always happen that way. For example, parents with AB and O blood types can either have children with blood type A or blood type B. These two types are definitely different than parents’ blood types!But two O parents, for example, will pretty much always have O kids. They will match both parents. As you can see, sometimes kids’ blood types match and sometimes they don’t."

"text": "\"Edit Article How to Study Haematology Haematology, is the branch of biology (physiology), pathology, clinical laboratory, internal medicine, and pediatrics that is concerned with the study of blood, the blood-forming organs, and blood diseases. Hematology includes the study of etiology, diagnosis, treatment, prognosis, and prevention of blood diseases. Here are some important aspects to learn about it when you first start studying haematology in medicine. Steps1 Know the different terminology for physicians specialized in haematology. Such physicians are known as haematologists. Their routine work mainly includes the care and treatment of patients with haematological diseases, although some may also work at the haematology laboratory viewing blood films and bone marrow slides under the microscope, interpreting various haematological test results. In some institutions, haematologists also manage the haematology laboratory. Physicians who work in haematology laboratories, and most commonly manage them, are pathologists specialized in the diagnosis of haematological diseases, referred to as haematopathologists. Haematologists and haematopathologists generally work in conjunction to formulate a diagnosis and deliver the most appropriate therapy if needed.2 Be aware that haematology is a distinct subspecialty of internal medicine, separate from but overlapping with the subspecialty of medical oncology. Haematologists may specialise further or have special interests, for example in:bleeding disorders such as haemophilia and idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpurahaematological malignacies such as lymphoma and leukemia (onco haematology)haemoglobinopathiesthe science of blood transfusion and the work of a blood bankbone marrow and stem cell transplantation3 Learn about the blood diseases that affect the production and functions of blood and its components, such as blood cells, hemoglobin, blood proteins, the mechanism of coagulation, etc."

These are found in virtually all rainforest habitats, ranging from the high canopy to streams and creeks. Collectively, reptiles and amphibians are known as herps. Unfortunately, many herps are threatened by habitat loss, the pet trade, and environmental change. Amphibians are particularly at risk from a deadly disease that is spreading around the globe. The disease has already caused the extinction of at least 170 species of frogs and toads over the past 30 years. Scientists have not yet pinpointed what is causing the outbreak or how it can be controlled. Emergency measures have been implemented for some endangered species, which are being collected and kept in zoos, aquariums, and botanical gardens until a cure can be found. Below you will find profiles for a few rainforest herps as well as a selection of photos.

The life of an African wild dog The scientific name for the African wild dog is Lycaon pictus, which means \"\"painted wolf.\"\" The coat markings on each individual are unique. Their highly sensitive ears act like satellite dishes, allowing them to hear their prey from a distance. Their large ears serve as cooling systems, too: air moves over the blood vessels in their ears and carries heat away. African wild dogs don't stick to one territory; instead, they range between 80 and 800 square miles, hunting mostly at dawn and dusk to avoid lions and other predators. Their large lungs and long legs allow them to chase their prey at up to 30 miles an hour for up to 3 ½ miles until the hunted animal slows down from fatigue.

In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to install the update and use these brand new photography features.i OS 8 is a free update and will be compatible with the following devices: i Phone 4s or newer, i Pod touch 5th generation, i Pad 2 or newer. To update your i Phone (or i Pad/i Pod touch) to i OS 8, simply go to Settings > General > Software Update, then follow the on-screen instructions. Note that updating takes about 30 minutes or more, and you won’t be able to use your i Phone while the new software is installing. Once you’ve updated your device to i OS 8, you’ll be able to use the new photography features as shown below. New Camera App The updated Camera app in i OS 8 includes three new features: a manual exposure adjustment, a self-timer and a time-lapse video mode. Manual Exposure Adjustment This is a fantastic new tool which is going to make such a difference when trying to get the right exposure using the native Camera app. Previously, you had to set focus and exposure together, which was often frustrating as you might want to set focus for one part of the scene and exposure for another. You could use other camera apps such as Camera+ to take photos with separate focus and exposure points, but now you can use the native Camera app to set the focus and then manually adjust the exposure before taking the photo."

The last thing you want to end up with is an arms-length photo of yourself taken with the poor quality front-facing camera. A good self portrait should reveal an honest expression of your true self, while maintaining photographic and artistic integrity. In this tutorial, you’ll discover ten unique ways to take wonderfully creative self portraits with your i Phone. When I first began i Phone photography, I swore I would never take a selfie. The idea of snapping an arms-length photo of myself just had no appeal. I yearned for a way to creatively capture my personality through the lens of an i Phone, not just snap a photo of my new haircut or outfit. By November 2013, encouraged by a few unconventional self portraits taken by fellow i Phone photographers, I decided to post a month of creative self portraits on my blog. Why Take A Self Portrait?

"text": "\"Brief Summary Learn more about this article The Common Warthog ( Phacochoerus africanus) is found across much of sub-Saharan Africa. Its common name is derived from the three pairs of facial \"\"warts\"\" made of fibrous tissue of different shape and thickness that are evident on the muzzle, along the jaws, and under the eyes (warts and tusks are less developed in females). These structures are also present on the very similar Desert Warthog ( P. aethiopicus ), although the shape is somewhat different. Common Warthogs are the only African pigs that are typical open country species, as evidenced by characteristic grazer morphology and behavior. Although they are largely grazers, their diet is not limited to grass, including, for example, roots, fruit, and small mammals, reptles, and birds when available. They are generally limited to various types of savanna grasslands, open bushlands, and woodlands, usually not far from a reliable water source. Common Warthogs usually trot with the head held high and the back rigid. They are highly diurnal, going underground before dark to sleep in abandoned burrows of Aardvarks ( Orycteropus afer) or other animals, often backing in. Humans, Lions ( Panthera leo ), Leopards ( Panthera pardus ), crocodiles, and hyenas are the main predators, but Cheetahs ( Acinonyx jubatus) and African Wild Dogs ( Lycaon pictus) can take small warthogs. Female warthogs are notoriously fierce in protecting their young."

"text": "How To Take Stunning HDR i Phone Photos Posted by Emil Pakarklis | December 14, 2016 Comments 72HDR is a fantastic i Phone camera feature for improving the exposure of your photos. It allows you to easily create more balanced exposures in high contrast scenes such as landscapes. With HDR you can capture more color and detail in both the dark foreground and the brighter sky. In this tutorial you’ll discover how to get the most out of HDR i Phone photography so that you can create stunning images even in the trickiest of lighting conditions. What Is HDR Photography? HDR stands for High Dynamic Range. The dynamic range of a scene tells you how different the brightest parts of the scene (the highlights) are from the darkest parts of the scene (the shadows). The human eye can see a much greater dynamic range than any camera, including the camera of your i Phone. For example, we can easily see the details of a dark subject against a bright sky, but what happens when we take photos of a scene like that? Because the camera isn’t capable of capturing detail in the very dark and very bright areas at the same time, you’ll usually end up with one of the following exposure problems (exposure refers to the brightness of the image): Either the dark areas will appear correctly exposed with plenty of color and detail, while the brighter sky appears over-exposed (pure white with no color or detail)."

As a young kid I’d stare up at the stars. Later, I’d take my daughter out during meteor showers to see how many shooting stars we could count. And throughout, I’ve experienced an uncanny need to keep staring at the full moon for about an hour after it rises. Yet my fascination with the night sky grew exponentially about six years ago when I learned that my digital SLR had the capabilities to capture the brilliance of the night sky, including details that my own eyes weren’t able to resolve. After capturing a sequence of photos, it’s a simple matter to turn them into breathtaking time-lapse videos. If you’re an avid photographer it’s likely you already have the tools you need to start capturing the night sky. Beyond the right tools, all you really need is the right camera settings. In the chart below I have listed the basics you’ll need, as well as a list of the key settings.

While it is easy to grow and beautiful in my home, it took lots of research to discover the plant's true identity. At first I thought the plant was a philodendron. Its growth habit is much like Philodendron hederaceum, so it made sense to me that it was a satin leaf form of philodendron. However, I could not substantiate this. Then I figured it could be an Epipremnum because of its similar growth habit and leaf shape, as well as its common name. It is, I have discovered, neither a Philodendron nor an Epipremnum, but a Scindapsus. It turns out that I was not the only person confused, for misinformation about this plant abounds. Probably the common name, satin pothos, led to some of the confusion. The pothos available in nurseries is usually Epipremnum aureus."

( July 2012) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)Social presence theory was developed by John Short, Ederyn Williams, and Bruce Christie, although its main thesis and major points would appear to have been first described twenty years previously in the 1956 Isaac Asimov novel The Naked Sun. Social Presence Theory is defined as \"\"The degree of salience of the other person in an interaction.\"\" [ 1]Contents [ hide ]1 Classification2 Emergence3 Definition4 Significance5 Conclusion6 See also7 References8 Sources9 External links Classification [ edit]Social presence theory classifies different communication media along a one-dimensional continuum of social presence, where the degree of social presence is equated to the degree of awareness of the other person in a communication interaction (Sallnas, Rassmus-Grohn, & Sjostrom, 2000). According to social presence theory, communication is effective if the communication medium has the appropriate social presence required for the level of interpersonal involvement required for a task. On a continuum of social presence, the face-to-face medium is considered to have the most social presence, and written, text-based communication the least. It is assumed in social presence theory that in any interaction involving two parties, both parties are concerned both with acting out certain roles and with developing or maintaining some sort of personal relationship. These two aspects of any interaction are termed interparty and interpersonal exchanges (Short, Williams, & Christie, 1976). Emergence [ edit]As computer-mediated communication has evolved a more relational view of social presence has emerged."

The most obvious selection can be change in solution color, but also rapid changes in solutions turbidity are easy to spot. Color changes are not instant. Reasons behind this behavior are described and discussed in the acid-base titration end point indicators. For now it is enough that you remember a rule of thumb, that for full color change property of the solution that is responsible for the indicator color must change by about 2 units. It can be 2 p H units for acid-base titration, or 2 p Me units for compexometric titration, or equivalent change of 120m V/n for potentiometric titration. Let's take a look at the titration curve of 0.1 M strong monoprotic acid titrated with 0.1 M strong monoprotic base in the presence of the methyl red indicator. Methyl red changes its color between p H 4.4 and 6.2. This change is shown on the plot.0.1 M strong monoprotic acid titrated with 0.1 M strong monoprotic base in the presence of the methyl red indicator.

As with all genetic traits, every animal inherits one copy of each locus from each of its parents. Each of these loci is responsible for one or more traits either independently, or in conjunction with another locus. All of them act on the pathways that produce the two major pigments, phaeomelanin and eumelanin, or affect the distribution of those pigments. The combined effect of all these loci (Agouti, Brown, Extension, etc.) is the color of the dog. Due to the complex interactions of these genes, it is possible for dogs to carry hidden colors which may appear in their offspring. Over the past several years, scientists at Vet Gen and elsewhere have determined the actual genes associated with many of these loci, and identified the mutations responsible for the different versions (alleles) of these genes. The fruit of this work are the tests available for many of the common coat colors and traits. The diagram below illustrates the relationships among the major loci (A, B, E and K) involved in determining coat color."

For our inaugural post, what more appropriate place to begin than with the two most heated rivals in the beverage business: Coca-Cola and Pepsi Co. Maintaining a near duopoly on soda products, Coke and Pepsi are natural enemies. The contention that exists between the two brands is best characterized by the well-known Pepsi Challenge, which asks strangers to sit down blindfolded, try both products, and decide once and for all which is superior. The general consensus from the taste test was that Pepsi was better. Of course, identifying which product is preferred is not really that simple. Furthermore, as Malcolm Gladwell points out, there are a few qualms with the methodology of the “sip test,” which was put on by Pepsi Co. Yet beyond the interaction of the fizzy soda against our palates there is another reaction affecting our tastes. As any marketer will point out, a consumer’s experience is also influenced by every exposure to the brand’s messaging along the way. So if the difference between these sodas is so marginal that it warrants a blindfolded taste test, then it’s likely that it’s the branding that will ultimately play a big role in consumers’ decisions. The following analysis examines the ancient soda feud using organically occurring Twitter conversations. This is the Coke vs Pepsi Social Presence Showdown."

By: Andreas Moritz Posted: December 8, 2011 — updated 2016 Book excerpt: The Amazing Liver and Gallbladder Flush During my research with thousands of patients suffering from almost every kind of illness, including terminal diseases, I found that each person had large numbers of gallstones in the liver and, in many cases, also in the gallbladder. When people eliminated these stones through the liver flush (liver cleanse) and introduced simple health-forming habits and supportive measures, they recovered from diseases that defied both conventional and alternative methods of treatment. What follows is a description of some of the more common signs indicating the presence of gallstones in the liver and gallbladder. If you have any of them, you will most likely derive great benefits from cleansing your liver and gallbladder. In my practice, I have found these indications to be highly accurate. In case you are not sure whether you have stones, it may be useful to cleanse the liver anyway; it can improve your health significantly, regardless. There is an old saying: “The proof of the pudding is in the eating.” The only way to discover for yourself whether you have gallstones is to do the liver flush. You will find that when you remove all the stones that may be present, the symptoms of disease will gradually disappear, and health will return to normal."

The basic premise is that physical therapists must be able to identify signs and symptoms of systemic origin or associated with medical conditions that can mimic neuromuscular or musculoskeletal (neuromusculoskeletal [NMS]) impairment in these areas. In the screening process, therapists will watch for yellow (caution) or red (warning) flags to direct them. Clinicians rely on special questions to ask men and women with significant risk factors, significant past medical history, suspicious clinical presentation, or associated signs and symptoms. With a careful interview and the right screening questions, the therapist can identify clues suggestive of a problem outside the scope of a physical therapist’s practice that may require medical referral. Specific tests to screen for an underlying infectious or inflammatory source of pelvic or abdominal pain are also presented with a suggested order of testing. When dealing with painful symptoms of the sacral and pelvic areas, the therapist may need to ask questions about sexual history or sexual practices. The therapist must remain aware of facial expressions, body language, and verbal remarks in response to a client’s answers to these questions. The therapist must be prepared to respond in a professional and responsible way if a man or woman with pelvic or sacral pain reports that he or she has been the victim of repeated violent sexual acts, or if a client admits to physical or emotional assault. More about the client interview, the screening interview, and screening for assault and domestic (intimate partner) violence is included in Chapter 2 (see also Appendices B-3 and B-32)."

Control of grazer-plant interactions is bi-directional on northwestern European coasts: grazing by limpets structures populations of macroalgae, while macroalgae provide habitat and food for limpets. Scottish shores dominated by the macroalga Fucus vesiculosus support lower densities and larger sizes of limpets Patella vulgata than shores with less Fucus. These patterns may be due to differences in inter-size-class competitive interactions of limpets among shores with different covers of Fucus. To examine this model, densities of small and large limpets were manipulated in plots with and without Fucus. Amounts of biofilm were measured in each plot. The presence of Fucus increased survival but hindered growth of small (15 mm TL) limpets, which were negatively affected by the presence of large limpets (31 mm TL). In contrast, large limpets were not affected by the presence of Fucus or of small limpets. This suggests the occurrence of asymmetric inter-size-class competition, which was influenced by the presence of macroalgae."

"text": "\"Is it certain that there corresponds to the word communication a unique, univocalconcept, a concept that can be rigorously grasped and transmitted: a communicable concept? Following a strange figure of discourse, one first must ask whether the word or signifier \"\"communication\"\" communicates a determined content, an identifiable meaning, a describable value. But in order to articulate and to propose this question, I already had to anticipate the meaning of the word communication: I have had to predetermine communication as the vehicle, transport, or site of passage of a meaning, and of a meaning that is one. If communication had several meanings, and if this plurality could not be reduced, then from the outset it would not be justified to define communication itself as the transmission of a meaning, assuming that we are capable of understanding one another as concerns each of these words (transmission, meaning, etc.). Now, the word communication, which nothing initially authorizes us to overlook as a word, and to impoverish as a polysemic word, opens a semantic field which precisely is not limited to semantics, semiotics, and even less to linguistics. To the semantic field of the word communication belongs the fact that it also des- ignates nonsemantic movements. Here at least provisional recourse to ordinary language and to the equivocalities of natural language teaches us that one may, for example, communicate a movement or that a tremor, a shock, a displacement of force can be communicated that is, propagated, transmitted. It is also said that different or distant places can communicate between each other by means of a given passageway or opening. What happens in this case, what is transmitted or communicated are not phenomena of meaning or signification. In these cases we are dealing neither with a semantic or conceptual content, nor with a semiotic operation, and even less with a linguistic exchange."

"text": "Science & Mathematics Chemistry What effect does the presence of a nonvolatile solute have upon?a/ the vapor pressure of a solution b/ the freezing point c/ the boiling point1 following 3 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: a. The presence of a non-volatile solute causes a decrease in the vapor pressure of the solvent. The magnitude of the decrease is directly proportional to the concentration of solute, expressed as the mole fraction: ΔPvap = Xsolute P°vap where P°vap is the vapor pressure of the pure solvent. b. The presence of a non-volatile solute causes the solvent to freeze at a lower temperature than normal. The magnitude of the freezing point depression is directly proportional to the molality of solute: ΔTf = Kf*m Kf is called the freezing point depression constant of the solvent. c. Similarly, a non-volatile solute causes the solvent to boil at a higher temperature. The magnitude of the so-called boiling point elevation is directly proportional to the concentration of solute, expressed as the molality, m: ΔTb = Kb*m Kb is called the boiling point elevation constant of the solvent.

Synthesis in this situation is linear and continues for approximately 50 minutes before exponential inhibition begins. Inhibition of DNA synthesis occurs within 25 seconds after the inhibition of protein synthesis. Absence of protein synthesis does not affect DNA synthesis at the levels of (a) membrane permeability and uptake of label, (b) nucleotide metabolism, (c) a specific subpopulation of cells or (d) a specific sub-population of replicons. In addition, it is shown that protein synthesis is not required for the elimination of an inhibitor of DNA synthesis. No qualitative differences could be found between DNA synthesized in the absence of protein synthesis and DNA made in control cells. Quantitative differences were, however, observed in the rate of DNA chain elongation (70 base pairs per second in control cells compared with 35 base pairs per second in cycloheximide-treated cells). The results are discussed in terms of (a) the function of such a tight coupling, (b) the time constants involved in the synthesis and removal of the coupling protein and (c) the characteristics of this protein which can be used for its identification.

Uversky, Liza Nielsen and Anthony L. Fink ‡+ Author Affiliations From the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of California at Santa Cruz, Santa Cruz, California 95064Next Section Abstract Congo red (CR) binding, monitored by characteristic yellow-green birefringence under crossed polarization has been used as a diagnostic test for the presence of amyloid in tissue sections for several decades. This assay is also widely used for the characterization of in vitro amyloid fibrils. In order to probe the structural specificity of Congo red binding to amyloid fibrils we have used an induced circular dichroism (CD) assay. Amyloid fibrils from insulin and the variable domain of Ig light chain demonstrate induced CD spectra upon binding to Congo red. Surprisingly, the native conformations of insulin and Ig light chain also induced Congo red circular dichroism, but with different spectral shapes than those from fibrils. In fact, a wide variety of native proteins exhibited induced CR circular dichroism indicating that CR bound to representative proteins from different classes of secondary structure such as α (citrate synthase), α + β (lysozyme), β (concavalin A), and parallel β-helical proteins (pectate lyase). Partially folded intermediates of apomyoglobin induced different Congo red CD bands than the corresponding native conformation, however, no induced CD bands were observed with unfolded protein. Congo red was also found to induce oligomerization of native proteins, as demonstrated by covalent cross-linking and small angle x-ray scattering. Our data suggest that Congo red is sandwiched between two protein molecules causing protein oligomerization."

"text": "A point-of-presence, often referred to as a POP, is the physical location where two or more types of communication devices establish a connection. A traditional example of a point-of-presence is found with the local telephone switch, which acts as the connection facility between local telephone lines and long distance services. In recent years, the term has been applied to connection points between users and the Internet, as well as between users and wireless devices. In all its incarnations, the point-of-presence supplies the necessary link that makes the exchange of communications functions possible. With a local telephone switch, the POP allows end users to initiate a telephone call, with the signal routing through the local phone switch and jumping onto the long distance link to that local switch. Thanks to the POP, the signal is able to reach its destination, where a return signal confirms the successful connection and allows voice communication to take place. With the advent of the Internet, the point-of-presence came to be identified with switches and routers that allowed users to establish a connection to the World Wide Web. Using existing digital telephone technology, it was possible to create this link in much the same manner as establishing a standard telephone call. The difference was in the type of data that was converted and transferred through the POP. Over time, enhancements to technology have made it possible for a POP to handle increasingly high volumes of data, leading to the development of today’s high speed communications capabilities."

Flag How many ounces of cooked chicken meat will one average chicken yield? Answer by Clehrich Confidence votes 74Figure roughly 30% of a chicken is in the bones and excess fat deposits. How much cooked chicken depends on the cooking method: roasted produces less than poached, for example, because water is usually retained with the latter method. So a 3-lb fryer yields about 2 pounds of raw chicken meat. Note that this also depends on the brand: some brands insert a great deal of water into the meat to help it keep longer, and this will cook out, leaving you less meat yield; I am told this is particularly true with larger birds, but I don't know for sure. If you buy ordinary supermarket chicken, figure that 35% or more is waste and you just might be pleasantly surprised. Fancy free-range organic chicken that comes more or less straight from the farm to you will give higher yields, but not much more than 30%.29 people found this useful Was this answer useful?

Answer by Corey Mag Confidence votes 71In the United States, 1 pint is 16 fluid ounces which is equal to one pound (also 16 ounces). This only works for water however as it has a density of 1. For anything else this would be incorrect as a pint is a unit of volume and a pound is a unit of weight.

"text": "Price Taker What it is: A price taker is a person or company that has no control to dictate prices for a good or service. In the trading world, a price taker is a trader who does not affect the price of the stock if he or she buys or sells shares . How it works (Example): The concept of a price taker is best illustrated with an example. Assume Company XYZ makes tires that sell for $150 each. Company XYZ makes 50,000 tires a year. Because there is a lot of competition in the tire market, and because profits and demand are flat, Company XYZ is not in a position to dictate the price of tires in the market. It must price its tires competitively in order to attract customers, because there are a lot of other substitutes for Company XYZ tires. Thus, Company XYZ can't necessarily raise the price of its tires without reasonably expecting to lose some customers to competitors, either. Company XYZ does not really have an impact on the general market price of tires and must therefore work within existing market prices. Similarly, price takers in the trading market cannot dictate the price at which they will buy shares or sell shares; they are constrained by the broader supply and demand requirements of the market."

"text": "Marginal resource cost is the amount that each additional unit of a resource adds to the firm’s total resourcecost Which of the following is true? An increase in the demand for a product will increase the demand for a resource used in its production, and vice versa. Derived demand for a resource depends on: the price or value received from the product it produces; the productivity contribution of the resource used to create a good or service When an increase in the quantity used of one resource leads to the increase of the use of another resource I the same production process and vice versa, the resources used are called complementary. The derived demand for resources by producers for a product will be low when: the product is selling poorly The derived demand for an input will rise when: it is highly productive in reducing the cost to produce a product; it is highly productive in producing a highly valued commodity The demand for service workers in the US is rapidly out pacing the demand for manufacturing, construction and mining workers. The strength of the demand for any resource will depend on the productivity of the resource and the market price of the good or service that the resource helps produce. Which of the following may change the demand for a specific resource? Changes in the prices of other resources When the sale of a firm’s total output of a product in a competitive product market has no effect on the market price, this makes the firm a price taker. A firm in a competitive product market exerts no influence on product price because it: supplies a negligible fraction of total output When the productivity of a product resource increases and makes a firm’s product more efficient and or effective, it will increase the demand for the resource, and should the productivity of a resource decline, it will decrease the demand for the resource. The expenditures that firms make in acquiring economic resources flow to households, which supply resources such as: wages; profit; rent; interest In a purely competitive labor market, market supply and market demand establish: the wage rate The firm in a competitive product market is also a price taker or wage taker in the competitive resource market. True or false: The substitution and output effects are both present when the price of an input changes, and they work and change in the same direction."

If the monopolist's marginal revenue is greater than its marginal cost, the monopolist can increase profit by selling more units at a lower price per unit. If a profit-maximizing monopolist faces a downward-sloping market demand curve, its marginal revenue is less than the price of the product. The monopolist's profit-maximizing quantity of output is determined by the intersection of which of the following two curves? Marginal cost and marginal revenue When a single firm can supply a product to an entire market at a smaller cost than could two or more firms, the industry is called a natural monopoly. When a monopoly increases its output and sales, the output effect works to increase total revenue and the price effect works to decrease total revenue."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Project finance is the long-term financing of infrastructure and industrial projects based upon the projected cash flows of the project rather than the balance sheets of its sponsors. Usually, a project financing structure involves a number of equity investors, known as 'sponsors', a 'syndicate' of banks or other lending institutions that provide loans to the operation. They are most commonly non-recourse loans, which are secured by the project assets and paid entirely from project cash flow, rather than from the general assets or creditworthiness of the project sponsors, a decision in part supported by financial modeling. [ 1] The financing is typically secured by all of the project assets, including the revenue-producing contracts. Project lenders are given a lien on all of these assets and are able to assume control of a project if the project company has difficulties complying with the loan terms. Generally, a special purpose entity is created for each project, thereby shielding other assets owned by a project sponsor from the detrimental effects of a project failure. As a special purpose entity, the project company has no assets other than the project. Capital contribution commitments by the owners of the project company are sometimes necessary to ensure that the project is financially sound or to assure the lenders of the sponsors' commitment. Project finance is often more complicated than alternative financing methods. Traditionally, project financing has been most commonly used in the extractive ( mining ), transportation, telecommunications, power industries as well as sports and entertainment venues."

"text": "Perfect competition A perfectly competitive market is a hypothetical market where competition is at its greatest possible level. Neo-classical economists argued that perfect competition would produce the best possible outcomes for consumers, and society. Key characteristics Perfectly competitive markets exhibit the following characteristics: There is perfect knowledge, with no information failure or time lags in the flow of information. Knowledge is freely available to all participants, which means that risk-taking is minimal and the role of the entrepreneur is limited. Given that producers and consumers have perfect knowledge, it is assumed that they make rational decisions to maximise their self interest - consumers look to maximise their utility, and producers look to maximise their profits. There are no barriers to entry into or exit out of the market. Firms produce homogeneous, identical, units of output that are not branded. Each unit of input, such as units of labour, are also homogeneous. No single firm can influence the market price, or market conditions. The single firm is said to be a price taker, taking its price from the whole industry."

"text": "price taker See Examples Save to Favorites Definition An individual or company which is not influential enough to affect the price of an item. For example, most investors are price takers, because their individual actions in buying and selling stocks are not enough to change the price of the security. A company is considered to be a price taker if the price it sets and quantity of goods it produces do not have any effect on the market price, and therefore the company is usually forced to go with the market price if they want to sell its goods. An individual consumer is also considered to be a price taker, because the purchases of one consumer do not affect the price a company sets for its products. Companies or individuals can exert varying degrees of influence, so it is not always easy to classify someone as a price taker. opposite of price maker. Use price taker in a sentence“They were a price taker and that made them mad because they could not have an impact over the price of the item.” Was this Helpful?

The test measures both general academic ability as well as scientific knowledge needed to be understood for those who plan to undertake a career in pharmacology. The test is repeatedly reviewed to ensure that it reflects current pharmacy prerequisites and curriculum requirements. PCAT Test Study Guide with Practice Questions There are a total of seven subtests within the PCAT: verbal ability, biology, chemistry, reading comprehension, quantitative ability, and two separate writing sections. Each section is 30 minutes long and a break is taken between the fourth and fifth sections. Apart from the two writing sections, all of the sections consist of 48 multiple choice questions. Of the 48 multiple choice questions, eight are experimental, as is one of the two writing sections. The experimental questions are not scored, and test takers do not know which part of the test is experimental. Test takers are not allowed to go back to previous sections of the test. Those interested in taking the PCAT are highly encouraged to register early as seating is only available on a first-come, first-served basis and can only be taken at a Pearson VUE Test Center."

The use of loaded language confers certain qualities to a statement that often amount to an emotional appeal. \"\" Liberal \"\", for instance, may be (and often is) used among Conservatives in the United States as an insult, implying that the person so-labeled disregards normal moral standards. The true meaning of such a term often becomes obscured due to the prevalence of the coded meaning. When the meaning is intentionally obfuscated in order to disparage a particular minority or belief without raising an alarm among those who would be offended by the meaning, it is sometimes called dog whistle politics, after the idea (often not actually true) that the out-group can't hear the meaning in the hidden message behind the words. Whether or not the out-group gets it, the in-group knows exactly what is meant by the code.

"text": "\"A Priori and A Posteriori The terms \"\"a priori\"\" and \"\"a posteriori\"\" are used primarily to denote the foundations upon which a proposition is known. A given proposition is knowable a priori if it can be known independent of any experience other than the experience of learning the language in which the proposition is expressed, whereas a proposition that is knowable a posteriori is known on the basis of experience. For example, the proposition that all bachelors are unmarried is a priori, and the proposition that it is raining outside now is a posteriori. The distinction between the two terms is epistemological and immediately relates to the justification for why a given item of knowledge is held. For instance, a person who knows (a priori) that \"\"All bachelors are unmarried\"\" need not have experienced the unmarried status of all—or indeed any—bachelors to justify this proposition. By contrast, if I know that \"\"It is raining outside,\"\" knowledge of this proposition must be justified by appealing to someone's experience of the weather. The a priori /a posteriori distinction, as is shown below, should not be confused with the similar dichotomy of the necessary and the contingent or the dichotomy of the analytic and the synthetic. Nonetheless, the a priori /a posteriori distinction is itself not without controversy. The major sticking-points historically have been how to define the concept of the \"\"experience\"\" on which the distinction is grounded, and whether or in what sense knowledge can indeed exist independently of all experience. The latter issue raises important questions regarding the positive, that is, actual, basis of a priori knowledge -- questions which a wide range of philosophers have attempted to answer."

In other words, you break down the problem into small solvable steps. Suppose you want to prove Z. You simplify Z to an equivalent statement Y. You show Y follows from X. You show X follows from V and W. You show W is equivalent to U which is known. You show V follows from T. You show T follows from S, which is known.

"text": "\"A Priori The term a priori is used in philosophy to indicate deductive reasoning. The term is Latin, meaning “from what comes before”, refering to that which comes before experience. Something that is known a priori can safely be considered to be a true statement, assuming that the logic (or deductive reasoning) used to arrive at that conclusion is conducted using valid arguments. A priori is in contrast to a posteriori, which is a term used to indicate inductive reasoning. In short, something known a priori is known purely through reason while something known a posteriori is determined through empirical evidence. Although one might venture to guess that something backed up by evidence is more likely to be based in truth, it is often the a priori knowledge that is more likely to hold truth. This is because evidence can often support multiple conclusions and is dependant on our accurate interpretation. Examples of a priori knowledge A priori knowledge comes from reason alone and not from experience. Mathematical equations, for example, are an example of a priori knowledge, since they do not require any real-world evidence to be considered true.

"text": "\"The law of diminishing marginal utility is at the heart of the explanation of numerous economic phenomena, including time preference and the value of goods; and it also plays a crucial role in showing that socialism is economically and ethically inferior to capitalism. The law of diminishing marginal utility, as developed by Carl Menger (1840–1921), is axiomatic in nature; that is, it is irrefutably true. In mainstream economics, however, this fundamental economic law is typically interpreted as resting on psychology, namely the law of satiation of wants. Such an interpretation, however, does not actually conceive the law of diminishing marginal utility as a fundamental economic law — which has truth value irrespective of time and place — but as a fleeting explanation of certain economic phenomena, which may or may not hold in a given situation. Given the importance of the law of diminishing marginal utility for economic theory and policy, it is important to keep advertising that the law of diminishing marginal utility is irrefutably true — because it follows from the axiom of human action. For ignoring this truth leads to fallacious and erroneous conclusions, and eventually to false economic theory and economic policies. The Axiom of Human Action Ludwig von Mises (1881–1973) reconstructed economics as an axiomatic science, which he called praxeology: the science of the logic of human action. The central element of praxeology is the axiom of human action. [ 1]The axiom of human action basically says that human beings act. This may sound trivial at first glance."

Baruch Spinoza, 17th-century Dutch philosopher and forerunner to the Age of Enlightenment, is regarded as one of the most influential rationalists of all time. [ 1] [2]In philosophy, rationalism is the epistemological view that \"\"regards reason as the chief source and test of knowledge\"\" [3] or \"\"any view appealing to reason as a source of knowledge or justification\"\". [ 4] More formally, rationalism is defined as a methodology or a theory \"\"in which the criterion of the truth is not sensory but intellectual and deductive \"\". [ 5]In an old controversy, rationalism was opposed to empiricism, where the rationalists believed that reality has an intrinsically logical structure. Because of this, the rationalists argued that certain truths exist and that the intellect can directly grasp these truths. That is to say, rationalists asserted that certain rational principles exist in logic, mathematics, ethics, and metaphysics that are so fundamentally true that denying them causes one to fall into contradiction. The rationalists had such a high confidence in reason that empirical proof and physical evidence were regarded as unnecessary to ascertain certain truths – in other words, \"\"there are significant ways in which our concepts and knowledge are gained independently of sense experience\"\".

Many new houses were formed that were all subservient to the abbey of Cluny and called Priories. As such, the priory came to represent the Benedictine ideals espoused by the Cluniac reforms as smaller, lesser houses of Benedictines of Cluny.

"text": "\"Market segmentation Segmentation is concerned with identifying different groups of purchasers in a market in order to target specific products and services for each group or segment. By tailoring the offering (communication, product, channel, price) to different groups you are able to more precisely meet the needs of more customers and consequently to gain a higher overall level of share or profit from a market. The process of segmentation starts with research and market analysis to identify key segments. However the findings of the research are just the start. To be successful, implementing a segmentation strategy involves aligning the organisation to deliver appropriately for each segment and there are real business issues to be considered because each segment requires investment if it is to be properly addressed. Segmentation is a major element of marketing. At its simplest it involves finding groups with different preferences and different levels of willingness to pay and creating products and offers that target these different groups - better matching what you offer against what the market will pay for. It's important to realise that segmentation can come with a cost and complexity overhead so segments need to be robust, replicable and have sufficient potential sales volume to make them worth addressing. At a research-level there are four major ways of segmenting a market according to the level of precision you require and the type of data and analysis available about your customers. However, in finding different market segments it is important to keep in mind that the business will have to use the segments and implement segment specific business decisions - such as tailored products, pricing or service to meet the needs of each segment."

"text": "A Priori Justification and Knowledge First published Sun Dec 9, 2007; substantive revision Mon May 19, 2014A priori justification is a type of epistemic justification that is, in some sense, independent of experience. Gettier examples have led most philosophers to think that having a justified true belief is not sufficient for knowledge ( see sec. 5, below, and the example, Sheep ), but many still believe that it is necessary. For those that do, a priori knowledge is knowledge based on a priori justification. There are a variety of views about whether a priori justification can be defeated (overridden or undercut) by other evidence, especially empirical evidence, and a variety of views about whether a priori justification, and knowledge, must be only of necessary or analytic propositions (see examples (1a)– (4a) and (7a)– (14a), below), or at least of ones believed to be necessary or analytic. A priori justification seems to rest on rational intuitions, or insights, but there are a variety of views about the nature of these intuitions or insights. There are different explanations of how these intuitions provide justification, if they do. Some philosophers do not see a priori justification as resting on any evidence, either experiential or nonexperiential, and so not resting on rational intuitions or insights at all. Their idea is that in some circumstances it can be default reasonable for a person to accept a proposition, or that the person is entitled to accept certain presuppositions independent of any evidence. Of course, there are also many objections to the idea that there can be a priori justification."

Torsades de pointes (Td P) or \"\"twisting of points\"\" is the specific type of polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (VT) associated with either form of the LQTS. ( See \"\"Congenital long QT syndrome: Epidemiology and clinical manifestations\"\" and \"\"Acquired long QT syndrome: Definitions, causes, and pathophysiology\"\" . ) Modern molecular biological techniques have permitted the identification and analysis of the genes responsible for almost all patients with a congenital long QT syndrome ( figure 1 and table 1 ) [ 1-7 ]. Hundreds of mutations in more than 10 genes have thus far been identified [ 8 ]. Distinct genetic types have been designated LQT1 through LQT10 and additional genetic types have been identified. Long QT syndrome can also be an acquired disorder, most often due to drugs ( table 2 ). In some patients, drug-associated LQTS appears to represent a \"\"forme fruste\"\" of congenital LQTS in which a mutation or polymorphism in one of the LQTS genes is clinically inapparent until the patient is exposed to a particular drug or other predisposing factor. ( See 'Mutations in acquired LQTS' below. )"

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search For other uses, see A priori (disambiguation) and A posteriori (disambiguation). The Latin phrases a priori ( lit. \"\" from the earlier\"\") and a posteriori ( lit. \"\" from the latter\"\") are philosophical terms of art popularized by Immanuel Kant 's Critique of Pure Reason (first published in 1781, second edition in 1787), one of the most influential works in the history of philosophy. [ 1] However, in their Latin forms they appear in Latin translations of Euclid 's Elements, of about 300 BCE, a work widely considered during the early European modern period as the model for precise thinking. These terms are used with respect to reasoning ( epistemology) to distinguish \"\"necessary conclusions from first premises\"\" (i.e., what must come before sense observation) from \"\"conclusions based on sense observation \"\" (which must follow it). Thus, the two kinds of knowledge, justification, or argument, may be glossed: A priori knowledge or justification is independent of experience, as with mathematics (3 + 2 = 5), tautologies (\"\"All bachelors are unmarried\"\"), and deduction from pure reason (e.g., ontological proofs ). [ 3]A posteriori knowledge or justification depends on experience or empirical evidence, as with most aspects of science and personal knowledge. There are many points of view on these two types of knowledge, and their relationship gives rise to one of the oldest problems in modern philosophy. The terms a priori and a posteriori are primarily used as adjectives to modify the noun \"\"knowledge\"\" (for example, \"\" a priori knowledge\"\")."

"text": "Abstract Background In light of increasing rates and severity of sepsis worldwide, this study aimed to estimate the incidence of, and describe the causative organisms, sources of infection, and risk factors for, severe maternal sepsis in the UK. Methods and Findings A prospective case-control study included 365 confirmed cases of severe maternal sepsis and 757 controls from all UK obstetrician-led maternity units from June 1, 2011, to May 31, 2012. Incidence of severe sepsis was 4.7 (95% CI 4.2–5.2) per 10,000 maternities; 71 (19.5%) women developed septic shock; and five (1.4%) women died. Genital tract infection (31.0%) and the organism Escherichia coli (21.1%) were most common. Women had significantly increased adjusted odds ratios (a ORs) of severe sepsis if they were black or other ethnic minority (a OR = 1.82; 95% CI 1.82–2.51), were primiparous (a OR = 1.60; 95% CI 1.17–2.20), had a pre-existing medical problem (a OR = 1.40; 95% CI 1.01–1.94), had febrile illness or were taking antibiotics in the 2 wk prior to presentation (a OR = 12.07; 95% CI 8.11–17.97), or had an operative vaginal delivery (a OR = 2.49; 95% CI 1.32–4.70), pre-labour cesarean (a OR = 3.83; 95% CI 2.24–6.56), or cesarean after labour onset (a OR = 8.06; 95% CI 4.65–13.97). Median time between delivery and sepsis was 3 d (interquartile range = 1–7 d). Multiple pregnancy (a OR = 5.75; 95% CI 1.54–21.45) and infection with group A streptococcus (a OR = 4.84; 2.17–10.78) were associated with progression to septic shock; for 16 (50%) women with a group A streptococcal infection there was <2 h—and for 24 (75%) women, <9 h—between the first sign of systemic inflammatory response syndrome and a diagnosis of severe sepsis. A limitation of this study was the proportion of women with sepsis without an identified organism or infection source (16.4%). Conclusions For each maternal sepsis death, approximately 50 women have life-threatening morbidity from sepsis. Follow-up to ensure infection is eradicated is important."

"text": "Province of England Early Beginnings When a dozen Dominican friars, led by Gilbert of Fresney, their first Provincial, arrived in England on 5 August 1221, they first visited Canterbury, the ecclesiastical capital of England, then London, the political capital. They finally established their first community inside the city walls of Oxford, England’s intellectual capital, on 15 August. These friars of the Order of Preachers quickly settled into the life and teaching of the early University, which proved a good place to find new recruits. Land for a new priory just outside the city walls was provided by the generosity of the Countess of Oxford, Isabel de Bolebec. Like the first foundation at Oxford, every house in the Province was to be a centre of learning, and each formed and educated novices for the mission of preaching. Priories were soon founded in other major towns and cities, where the friars could find alms on which they had to live. As mendicants they were forbidden to own and rent properties until 1475. The friars and their houses and large churches for prayer and preaching often became known as ‘Black Friars’, because of the black cape (cappa) the brothers wear over their white habits. ‘ Blackfriars Bridge’, where the medieval London Blackfriars stood on the north bank of the River Thames from 1224, and where the English parliament met more than once during the Middle Ages, is only one example. A gift of shoes in 1233 indicates that about 100 brothers lived in the London Blackfriars, the largest of the medieval communities."

"text": "Kant's Theory of Judgment First published Wed Jul 28, 2004; substantive revision Mon Oct 23, 2017Theories of judgment, whether cognitive (i.e., object-representing, thought-expressing, truth-apt) judgment or practical (i.e., act-representing, choice-expressing, evaluation-apt) judgment, bring together fundamental issues in semantics, logic, cognitive psychology, and epistemology (collectively providing for what can be called the four “faces” of cognitive judgment [see also Martin 2006]), as well as action theory, moral psychology, and ethics (collectively providing for the three “faces” of practical judgment): indeed, the notion of judgment is central to any general theory of human rationality. But Kant’s theory of judgment differs sharply from many other theories of judgment, both traditional and contemporary, in three ways: (1) by taking the innate capacity for judgment to be the central cognitive faculty of the rational human mind, (2) by insisting on the semantic, logical, psychological, epistemic, and practical priority of the propositional content of a judgment, and (3) by systematically embedding judgment within the metaphysics of transcendental idealism. Several serious problems are generated by the interplay of the first two factors with the third. This in turn suggests that the other two parts of Kant’s theory of judgment can be logically detached from the strongest version of his transcendental idealism and defended independently of it. This entry also includes five supplementary documents covering (i) the debate about Kant’s conceptualism vs. Kant’s non-conceptualism, (ii) the epistemology of Kantian judgment and the ethics of Kantian belief, (iii) Kant’s logic in relation to his theory of judgment, (iv) kinds of use for judgments, and (v) completing the picture of Kant’s metaphysics of judgment.1.

"text": "\"Hume on Ideas, Impressions, and Knowledge Let my try one more time to make clear the ideas we discussed today in class. Ideas and Impressions First off, Hume, like Descartes, Locke, and Berkeley, believes that what we are immediately aware of in conscious experiences are (only) mental contents, i.e., “stuff” that exists “in our minds,” and not material substances that may exist outside our minds and may be the ultimate causes of these mental contents. While Descartes, Locke, and Berkeley called these mental contents by many names, includes, “ideas,” “thoughts,” and “sensations,” Hume’s general term for all such mental contents is “perceptions.” So, in spite of the difference in terminology, Hume agrees with the other three on this point: that we are directly aware only of things that exist only in our minds. Hume uses the general term “perceptions” for all of these because he wants to point out a distinction between them that, he thinks, the others have not paid close enough attention to. Hume notes that some of our perceptions are very clear and lively, and he associates them with what we are aware of in sensations, emotions, and feelings. These he calls “impressions.” In addition to impressions, he claims that the rest of our perceptions are similar to impressions, but less lively and clear. These he calls “ideas.” He gives an example of perception vs. memory."

"text": "\"These Hilarious Pun Examples Will Make You Laugh Like Crazy Paronomasia or pun is a word play, exploiting different meanings of the same word or a string of words, or similar-sounding words. This article gives you different examples of puns. A type of word play wherein one word has two meanings or where similar-sounding words are exploited, is known as pun. This gives an ambiguity to the sentence, which is purposely added for a humorous or rhetorical effect. According to Ambrose Bierce, pun is \"\"A form of wit, to which wise men stoop and fools aspire\"\". Literary figures like Shakespeare, Wordsworth, Oscar Wilde, and George Carlin were famous for its use in their works. This so-called lowbrow humorous device works on double entendre. Types of Puns Visual Pun Using a picture to convey the pun is quite popular nowadays. Usually, logos, emblems, symbols, and other graphic elements are utilized to put the message across to the reader. Homophonic Pun Here, the pun depends on similar-sounding words with different meanings."

"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."

"text": "\"Homework Help > Twelfth Night What is an example of a double entendre in Shakespeare's Twelfth Night?print Printdocument PDFlist Cite Expert Answers Tamara K. H. | Certified Educator A double entendre is a form of figurative language in which a given phrase of words can be interpreted as having more than one meaning, usually the second meaning is sexually suggestive. Double entendres are similar to puns in that both are forms of word play. The main difference is that a pun is a play on a single word rather than an entire phrase. However, a double entendre can certainly make use of a pun in the phrase in order to create the double meaning. A few examples of double entendres in Twelfth Night can be found in Act 1, Scene 3 in the conversation between Maria and Sirs Toby and Andrew. Sir Toby invites Sir Andrew to greet Maria by making a sexual pun out of the word \"\"accost,\"\" as we see in his line, \"\"Accost, Sir Andrew, accost\"\" (I.iii.44). The word accost can refer to a greeting, but it's primary definition refers to being confronted in an offending way, especially confronted for \"\"sexual purposes\"\" (Random House Dictionary). Hence, Sir Toby's sexual pun begins a series of other sexual double entendres. One double entendre is seen in another thing Sir Toby says to Sir Andrew, that if he lets Maria go, he hopes Sir Andrew \"\"mightst never draw sword again\"\" (56-57). Literally, the line refers to the fact that Sir Andrew is a knight and is trained in sword fighting; however, figuratively, the phrase also has sexual connotations referring to erections."

But today, this man on TV (Unsolved Mysteries) was a psychic and he was talking about a spirit and he goes, \"\"He was a very high and free spirited person. No pun intended. \"\" 2 following 12 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: A pun is a play on words. If the guy was a supposed psychic and he was talking about a spirit of a person who is said to have been \"\"free-spirited,\"\" it is a little ironic that he's referring to him that way, because, supposedly, when a person dies, he or she gives up his or her spirit (thereby \"\"freeing\"\" their spirit). Typically, a free-spirited person is one who is somewhat carefree. In the context, it would sound as though he was making a joke about the person who died and \"\"freed\"\" his spirit by referring to him as \"\"free-spirited\"\" (as he was described in life). \"\" No pun intended\"\" very often recognizes the fact that there is a potential play on words, but that the speaker doesn't really mean it that way. Source (s): This one's hard to explain."

"text": "Pun Pun Definition A pun is a play on words that produces a humorous effect by using a word that suggests two or more meanings, or by exploiting similar sounding words that have different meanings. Humorous effects created by puns depend upon the ambiguities the words entail. These ambiguities arise mostly in homophones and homonyms. For instance, in the sentence, “A happy life depends on a liver,” the word liver can refer to the bodily organ, or simply a person who lives. Similarly, in the saying “Atheism is a non-prophet institution,” the word “prophet” is used instead of “profit” to produce a humorous effect. Common Pun Examples In everyday life, pun examples are found intentionally or accidentally, used in jokes and witty remarks. The life of a patient of hypertension is always at steak. Why do we still have troops in Germany? To keep the Russians in Czech. A horse is a very stable Time flies like an arrow."

"text": "Definition of Pun A pun is a play on words which usually hinges on a word with more than one meaning or the substitution of a homonym that changes the meaning of the sentence for humorous or rhetorical effect. For example, here’s a well-known pun: “Corduroy pillows are making headlines.” The word “headlines” usually refers to something that is new and popular, but this pun changes the meaning in that after having slept on a corduroy pillow, a person would wake up with lines on their heads. Another well-known pun is, “When a vulture flies he takes carrion luggage.” In this pun, the words “carrion” and “carry on” are homonyms; humans take “carry on” luggage when we fly on planes, while vultures eat “carrion” and may take it with them when they fly. Another word for pun is paronomasia, which comes from the Greek word paronomazein, which meant, “to make a change in naming. ”Types of Puns There are several different types of puns. Here are some of the different classifications of puns: Homophonic pun: This type of pun uses homonyms (words that sound the same) with different meanings. For example: “The wedding was so emotional that even the cake was in tiers.” The professor Walter Redfern said of this type of pun, “To pun is to treat homonyms as synonyms."

"text": "What Is Figurative Language (with Examples)Figurative language is the use of words in an unusual or imaginative manner. Often figurative language involves the use of a metaphor, a simile, personification, hyperbole, idiom, a euphemism, and pun. However, as the term figurative language also covers unusual or imaginative word constructions (and not just word meanings), it also includes alliteration, assonance, consonance, onomatopoeia, and logosglyphs . Examples of Figurative Language When most people think of figurative language, similes and metaphors spring to mind. However, the term figurative language covers a wide range of literary techniques. Here are some examples of figurative language in each of the categories: Metaphor A metaphor asserts that one thing is something that it literally is not. For example: It is a house of cards. Her eyes were darting torches. Time is money. An icy stare Simile A simile likens one thing to another (usually achieved by the use of the word like or as )."

A pun is a phrase or word that makes humour by relying on the different meanings of a word or words with similar sounds.

"text": "Arkansas was home to Native Americans long before Europeans arrived. The first explorers met Indians whose ancestors had occupied the region for thousands of years. These were impressive and well-organized societies, to whom Europeans introduced new technologies, plants, animals, and diseases, setting in motion a process of population loss and cultural change that would continue for centuries. The United States government forced Indians to leave their ancient homelands and attempted—during the nineteenth century—to eradicate Indian traditions altogether. Indian communities persevered and today continue to celebrate their rich cultural heritage. This heritage is an important part of Arkansas history. First Encounters The first encounters between Europeans and Indians living in what is now Arkansas took place in 1541, when Hernando de Soto ’s army camped on the eastern side of the Mississippi River. The Spaniards were visited on or about May 22 (on the Julian calendar) by Aquixo, the leader of a large community on the other side of the river. Aquixo arrived with a fleet of 200 canoes outfitted with banners and shields and filled with powerful teams of paddlers and painted warriors wearing colorful feathered regalia. The warriors were organized in ranks, and Aquixo was seated beneath a canopy erected over the stern of a very large canoe."

There are several example of mutualistic interaction in an ecosystem such as : 1 The bee and the flower. Bees fly from flower to flower gathering nectar, which they make into food, benefiting the bees. When they land in a flower, the bees get some pollen on their hairy bodies, and when they land in the next flower, some of the pollen from the first one rubs off, pollinating* the plant. This benefits the plants. In this mutualistic relationship, the bees get to eat, and the flowering plants get to reproduce. 2 The spider crab and the algae. Spider crabs live in shallow areas of the ocean floor, and greenish-brown algae lives on the crabs' backs, making the crabs blend in with their environment, and unnoticeable to predators.

Every organism can be classified by where it fits into the food chain. Most broadly, all organisms fit into one of three camps: producers, consumers, and decomposers. Producers Producers are able to produce carbohydrates from the energy of the sun through photosynthesis or, in some instances, from inorganic molecules through chemosynthesis. Because they can produce their own food, producers are also called autotrophs . Producers form the foundation of every food chain because only they can transform inorganic energy into energy that all other organisms can use. On land, plants and photosynthetic bacteria are the main producers. In marine environments, green plants and algae are the main producers. In deep water environments near geothermal vents, chemosynthetic organisms are the main producers. Consumers Consumers cannot produce the energy and organic molecules necessary for life; instead, consumers must ingest other organisms in order to get these materials."

This process of interdependent evolution of two or more species is called coevolution. Some relationships are beneficial to both parties, while others have a clear benefit for one at the expense, or even death, of the other. Four important plant/animal interactions are explored here: plant/herbivore, plant/pollinator, plant/disperser, and other examples of mutualism. Plant/Herbivore Relationships Herbivory is an interaction in which a plant or portions of the plant are consumed by an animal. At the microscopic scale, herbivory includes the bacteria and fungi that cause disease as they feed on plant tissue. Microbes that break down dead plant tissue are also specialized herbivores. Browsers and grazers, from aphids and caterpillars to deer and bison, are more familiar herbivores. Even insects and animals that eat seeds are considered herbivores.

Dolphins can vary greatly in terms of their size and can range from 4 ft. long ( Maui’s dolphin) all the way up to 30 ft. long (the killer whale) and weigh anywhere from less than 100 pounds to as much as 22, 000 pounds. Currently there are about 40 known species of dolphin in existence today, however some of the earliest known species of dolphin can be traced back as far as 10 million years. Dolphins are known for being extremely intelligent and playful animals. They are also known to be some of the most agile and athletic species known to inhabit the ocean. In fact some species of dolphin have been known to swim as deep as 1000 ft, jump as high as 30 feet out of the water and travel as fast as 25 miles per hour. Diet When it comes to diet dolphins are known to eat a variety of different foods which can vary greatly depending on the dolphins species, hunting methods, social structure anatomical features (i.e. overall size and teeth). One of the most determinant factors involved in a dolphins diet is the species it belongs to with smaller species often eating small prey that is easy to swallow and digest while a few of the larger species are able to consume much larger prey."

The European need to own the land and the diseases, guns and alcohol they brought with them created an impossible situation for the survival of the Lenni-Lenape in their homeland. The life-style was strange to the Europeans, but was based on adaptation to the environment of New Jersey. ( Rather similar to the current movement from the cities to the shore for the summer.) The Lenni-Lenape traveled with the seasons, making full use of the area resources. During the spring the planted gardens around their permanent settlements. In the summer, they went to the shore to catch oysters and clams and stay cool."

[ 1] [2] Different authorities apply different criteria when designating serial killers; [3] while most set a threshold of three murders, [1] others extend it to four or lessen it to two. [ 3] The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), for example, defines serial killing as \"\"a series of two or more murders, committed as separate events, usually, but not always, by one offender acting alone\"\". [ 2] [4]Although psychological gratification is the usual motive for serial killing, and most serial killings involve sexual contact with the victim, [5] the FBI states that the motives of serial killers can include anger, thrill-seeking, financial gain, and attention seeking. [ 4] The murders may be attempted or completed in a similar fashion. The victims may have something in common, for example, demographic profile, appearance, gender or race. [ 6] A serial killer is neither a mass murderer, nor a spree killer.

Many of these cats are endangered, and the children who will one day assume responsibility for these animals should be able to learn what they can about their lives. After all, we appreciate what we understand, and save what we appreciate. The importance of this task has led many experts here at Wikibooks to donate their time and talents to bring this volume together. Wikibooks is a project of the Wikimedia Foundation, aimed at providing free, easily available quality reading for adults and children to promote the global spread of knowledge. Traditional publishing houses make the bulk of their income from re-issues of classic books, new books by authors with long track records, or celebrities who are famous in their own right. The chances of a truly good new work being published solely on the basis of merit skyrocket when you overturn the traditional business model and tap the wellspring of new talent out there using the 'net.

The Sun provides energy to producers, such as plants. Producers convert this energy into a form that can be consumed by animals.

Various Warren Commission (WC) critics have identified a number of people and groups whom they suspect were either involved in the assassination or had foreknowledge of it and did nothing to prevent it because they wanted JFK out of the way. There is a wide difference of opinion among researchers concerning suspects. According to many researchers, the following individuals and groups were involved in the assassination conspiracy or knew about it and did nothing to prevent it:* Lyndon Johnson* The CIA* J. Edgar Hoover* Oil baron H. L. Hunt* Certain Mafia leaders* Anti-Castro Cubans* Ultra-conservative elements in the military* Richard Nixon* Family and allies of South Vietnam's murdered dictator, Ngo Dinh Diem* Fidel Castro Lyndon Johnson Personally, I can't make up my mind about Lyndon Johnson. I suspect Johnson was involved in the plot to murder President Kennedy, but I'm by no means certain, and I wouldn't be surprised to learn he was not involved. I think it's also possible Johnson knew about the plot ahead of time but did nothing to prevent it. All this being said, I think it's clear Johnson was a driving force behind the cover-up that followed the assassination. Some of Johnson's actions in the hours and days following the shooting give me pause and have caused many researchers to suspect Johnson of wrongdoing to varying degrees. By November 1963, Johnson suspected he was going to be dropped from the presidential ticket in 1964, and there is in fact good evidence that JFK was going to get a new running mate for his reelection campaign (26:291-295). Also, Johnson was facing at least one serious probe into his alleged involvement in criminal activity."

S.-Colombia task force charged with tracking down fugitive drug lord Pablo Escobar to one of Colombia's most notorious paramilitary chiefs, according to a new collection of declassified documents published today by the National Security Archive. The affair sparked a special CIA investigation into whether U. S. intelligence was shared with Colombian terrorists and narcotraffickers every bit as dangerous as Escobar himself. The new documents, released under the U. S. Freedom of Information Act, are the most definitive declassified evidence to date linking the U. S. to a Colombian paramilitary group and are the subject of an investigation published today in Colombia's Semana magazine. The documents reveal that the U. S.-Colombia Medellin Task Force, known in Spanish as the Bloque de Búsqueda or 'Search Block,' was sharing intelligence information with Fidel Castaño, paramilitary leader of Los Pepes ( Perseguidos por Pablo Escobar or 'People Persecuted by Pablo Escobar'), a clandestine terrorist organization that waged a bloody campaign against people and property associated with the reputed narcotics kingpin. One cable describes a key meeting from April 1993 where, according to sensitive US intelligence sources, Colombian National Police director General Miguel Antonio Gómez Padilla said \"\"that he had directed a senior CNP intelligence officer to maintain contact with Fidel Castano, paramilitary leader of Los Pepes, for the purposes of intelligence collection. \"\" The no-holds-barred search for Escobar began in July 1992 after his escape from a luxury prison where he had been confined since surrendering under a special plea agreement with Colombian authorities. U. S. anti-narcotics strategy in Colombia was intensely focused on Escobar, the legendary Medellín Cartel kingpin who for years had waged a violent campaign of bombings and assassinations against Colombian law enforcement. This gloves-off strategy forged alliances between Colombian intelligence agencies, rival drug traffickers and disaffected former Escobar associates like Castaño, the godfather of a new generation of narcotics-fueled paramilitary forces that still plagues Colombia today. The new collection also sheds light on the role of U. S. intelligence agencies in Colombia's conflict—both the close cooperation with Colombian security forces evident in the Task Force as well as the highly-sensitive U. S. intelligence operations that targeted the Colombian government itself. Key information about links between the Task Force and the Pepes was derived from U. S. intelligence sources that closely monitored meetings between the Colombian president and his top security officials."

It includes many bacteria that are part of the normal human microbiota as well as many pathogens. The Proteobacteria are further divided into five classes: Alphaproteobacteria, Betaproteobacteria, Gammaproteobacteria, Deltaproteobacteria, and Epsilonproteobacteria ( Appendix D ). Alphaproteobacteria The first class of Proteobacteria is the Alphaproteobacteria. The unifying characteristic of this class is that they are oligotrophs, organisms capable of living in low-nutrient environments such as deep oceanic sediments, glacial ice, or deep undersurface soil. Among the Alphaproteobacteria are two taxa, chlamydias and rickettsias, that are obligate intracellular pathogens, meaning that part of their life cycle must occur inside other cells called host cells. When not growing inside a host cell, Chlamydia and Rickettsia are metabolically inactive outside of the host cell. They cannot synthesize their own adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and, therefore, rely on cells for their energy needs. Rickettsia spp."

What Is Bacilli? In 2001, bacterial spores that caused anthrax were sent to several agencies and individuals through the US postal system. This resulted in five deaths and 17 additional infections. Anthrax is a disease and is caused by Bacillus anthracis, a bacterium. Anthrax can enter your body four different ways: through your skin, through ingestion, through injection and, most deadly, through inhalation."

"text": "Education Science Biology The Shapes of Cells The Shapes of Cells Related Book Microbiology For Dummies By Jennifer Stearns, Michael Surette Prokaryotic cells come in many different shapes and sizes that you can see under a microscope. A description of the shape of a cell is called the cell morphology. The most common cell morphologies are cocci (spherical) and bacilli (rods). Coccibacillus are a mix of both, while vibrio are shaped like a comma, spirilla are shaped like a helix (a spiral, sort of like a stretched-out Slinky), and spirochetes are twisted like a screw. The illustration shows these common cell morphologies. Although prokaryotes are unicellular organisms, their cells can be arranged in a few different ways, like chains or clusters, depending on how the cells divide: Cocci bacteria that divide along a single plane form small chains of two cells called diplococci or long chains of multiple cells called streptococci. Cocci bacteria can also divide along multiple planes to form tetrads (two planes), cubelike sarcinae (three planes), or grapelike clusters called staphylococci (multiple planes). Similarly to the cocci, rod-shaped bacteria can divide to form double-celled diplobacilli or longer chains called streptobacilli. The shape of a cell is encoded in its genes. Although it’s known how cell shape is controlled, the reason behind the many different shapes remains a mystery."

The main three shapes of bacteria are cocci, bacilli and spiral. Different spatial arrangements like diplococci, streptococci, staphylococci, tetrads and sarcina are found in cocci. In bacilli, diplobacilli, streptobacilli and coccobacillus are found. Both cocci and bacilli can cause infectious diseases in plants and animals. Anthrax is one of the most dangerous infectious diseases caused by bacilli. Prevention of infections by both cocci and bacilli can be achieved using antibiotics. Both bacteria contains a rigid cell wall, which is made up of murin. The average diameter of a bacterium in both cocci and bacilli is around 0.5 µm. The main difference between cocci and bacilli is that cocci are spherical or oval-shaped bacteria whereas bacilli are rod-shaped bacteria."

Bacteria are thought to have been the first organisms to appear on earth, about 4 billion years ago. The oldest known fossils are of bacteria-like organisms. Bacteria can use most organic and some inorganic compounds as food, and some can survive extreme conditions. A growing interest in the function of the gut microbiome is shedding new light on the roles bacteria play in human health."

"text": "Shapes of Bacteria Bacteria are almost always single celled, prokaryotic microscopic organisms. They are typically much smaller than eukaryotic cells because they lack lots of distinct organelles, such as nuclei. Despite being single celled, independent organisms, they generally exist in groups or colonies and essentially exist as a unified population. There are three main shapes of bacteria: bacillus, coccus, and spiral. Bacillus, or rod shaped bacteria, are one of the main forms, and are typically 0.5 micrometers to 1.0 micrometer in width, and from 1.0 micrometer to 4.0 micrometers in length. Examples of bacilli include Bacillus anthracis, the bacterium that causes anthrax, and the well known E. coli. This shape of bacteria can also form long chains called streptobacillus. Another form is called coccobacillus, which describes a class of bacteria whose shape is somewhere between that of the coccus and the bacillus. Another common shape of bacteria is the coccus. Cocci are spherically shaped bacteria that organize in several distinct arrangements when in groups: diplococcus, tetrad, sarcina, and staphylococcus arrangements."

The eubacteria is a super class which groups different types of bacteria except for archaebacteria. Eubacteria are mostly unicellular in nature and their nucleus is not enclosed in any membrane. These heterotrophic microbes obtain nutrition from a variety of sources. Most eubacteria are pathogenic in nature. They are responsible for causing diseases like cholera, tuberculosis, typhoid and dysentery in humans. Heterotrophic eubacteria exhibit parasitic as well as saprophytic behavior. Diseases in human beings are mostly caused by infection of parasitic eubacteria. The saprophytic eubacteria derive nutrition from dead organisms and their surroundings.

Game play in American football consists of a series of downs, individual plays of short duration, outside of which the ball is dead or not in play. These can be plays from scrimmage – passes, runs, punts, or field goal attempts (from either a place kick or a drop kick) – or free kicks such as kickoffs and fair catch kicks. Substitutions can be made between downs, which allows for a great deal of specialization as coaches choose the players best suited for each particular situation.

[ 1] The team with the ball (the offense) has 4 plays ( downs) to advance at least 10 yards, and can score points once they reach the opposite end of the field, which is home to a scoring zone called the end zone, as well as the goal posts. If the offense succeeds in advancing at least 10 yards, they earn a \"\"first down\"\" and the number of tries allotted is reset and they are again given 4 tries to advance an additional 10 yards, starting from the spot to which they last advanced. If the offense does not advance at least 10 yards during their 4 downs, the team without the ball (the defense) regains control of the ball (called turnover on downs ). On offense, points are scored by advancing the ball into the opponent's end zone for a touchdown (worth six points), or by kicking the ball from the playing field through the raised vertical posts (the goal posts) which are most commonly situated on the end line of the end zone for a field goal (worth three points)."

"text": "\"Arts, Music, and Recreation ›Sports How to Play Free Safety in Football Share Flipboard Email Print Donald Miralle/Getty Imagesby Jobe Lewis Updated March 17, 2017The safety position, or \"\"free safety,\"\" is the last line of defense in the secondary on a football team. He is the deepest defender on a pass play and provides secondary support on a run play. The free safety gets the privilege of standing in the back, watching the play develop and attacking where he knows the play will end up. Many people refer to the position as the quarterback of the defense because the safety needs to recognize formations and communicate to the rest of the defense accordingly. Every player in every position on the football field needs to know these basics: their alignment, their assignment, and their key or read. Here are those basics for the free safety: Alignment The safety will line up about 12 yards behind the line of scrimmage, cheated to the strong receiver side. This puts the safety in good position to be deep on pass coverage, but close enough to come up for a stop on a run play. Assignment The safety's primary responsibilities are to stop the pass. However, they are called upon to be a quick support for the run, once the pass threat is gone. Key/Read The safety keys on uncovered linemen, the offensive linemen that do not have a defender directly in front of them."

"text": "Sports Fantasy Sports Fantasy Football How Fantasy Football Game Play Is Scored How Fantasy Football Game Play Is Scored Related Book Fantasy Football For Dummies By Martin Signore To win in fantasy football, your team needs to score more points than any other team in your league. A fantasy team scores points based on each player’s performance and personal stats, in addition to the standard NFL point system for touchdowns, field goals, safeties, and extra points; fantasy scoring is not affected by the NFL teams’ win-loss records. As a result, the stud offensive players who can run, catch, and pass for big yards and not just score are the elite players in the fantasy world. In essence, fantasy rewards a player for playing a good game even if he doesn’t score lots of touchdowns. Scoring touchdowns isn’t easy in the NFL, and just because an offensive player can’t reach the end zone doesn’t mean he’s having a bad game. Fantasy football also awards points to kickers who kick field goals and extra points and to team defenses that can score fantasy points by not giving up points and creating turnovers, in addition to scoring touchdowns and safeties. Basically, anything from fumble recoveries to receptions to field goal distance can add up for your fantasy team. Every league provider has a default setting for the stats that will convert to fantasy scoring, but any NFL stat can translate into fantasy points — only your league commissioner can make the decision to change any defaults. To know your league’s scoring default, make sure you check out your league’s scoring system when preparing for your season. The scoring rules of your league may affect your draft strategy and will affect the outcome of each game during the season."

"text": "NFL resumes quiet push for 18-game schedule Posted by Mike Florio on September 23, 2013, 10:04 AM EDTGetty Images For most teams, it’s three games down and 13 to go. If the NFL eventually gets its way, each team would still have 15 regular-season contests remaining. Per a league source, the NFL quietly has resumed its push to persuade the NFLPA to expand the regular-season to 18 games. The players consistently have declined to agree to an expanded regular season, even though the players would realize roughly half of the additional revenue. And while the NFL still has the ability to unilaterally slash the preseason in half, which at one point was viewed as the leverage necessary to persuade the NFLPA to agree to add those two games to the regular season, the league is unlikely to do that, for various reasons. Apart from losing the revenue with no guarantee the NFLPA would take the bait for replacing the money (and then some) by adding a pair of regular-season games, stadium lease agreements typically require at least 10 games per year . So if the NFL opts to drop a pair of preseason games and the union calls the bluff, the NFL could end up in breach of multiple stadium deals. If the players continue to refuse to play more than 16 games, the only way to add two games would be to expand the season while limiting each player’s participation to 16 per season. This would require coaches to make often difficult decisions about when to rest each player, twice. Injuries would make those decisions easier."

The offense, which is the team controlling the oval-shaped football, attempts to advance down the field by running with or passing the ball, while the defense, which is the team without control of the ball, aims to stop the offense's advance and aims to take control of the ball for themselves. The offense must advance at least ten yards in four downs, or plays, and otherwise they turn over the football to the defense; if the offense succeeds in advancing ten yards or more, they are given a new set of four downs. Points are primarily scored by advancing the ball into the opposing team's end zone for a touchdown or kicking the ball through the opponent's goalposts for a field goal. The team with the most points at the end of a game wins. American football evolved in the United States, originating from the sports of association football and rugby football. The first match of American football was played on November 6, 1869, between two college teams, Rutgers and Princeton, under rules based on the association football rules of the time. ["

"text": "\"Flex Player Fantasy Football Definition of \"\"Flex Player\"\"A \"\"flex player\"\" is also known as a \"\"wild card player\"\" in fantasy football. The flex player position is a spot in a team 's starting lineup which allows the owner to choose a player from two or more different positions. This gives a fantasy football team flexibility in which player positions they select to start every week, allowing the team to select their strongest possible starting lineup. Flex positions have become much more common in the last 10 to 15 years of fantasy football. Flex Player Strategies Flex player positions not only gives teams flexibility when injuries or bye weeks happen, but it also allows a team to choose what their focus will be in the fantasy football draft. This introduces a degree of draft strategy which doesn't generally exist in leagues with rigid starting lineup positions. For instance, many old leagues would require a team to start 2 running backs and 2 wide receivers. In leagues with a flex player, you might be able to start 1 running back and 2 wide receivers, as well as a flex player who might be a running back or a wide receiver. Or you might be required to start 2 running backs and 2 receivers, then start a flex position player who can be either a runner or a receiver. Offensive Flex Player When teams fill out their weekly starting lineups, then, one might start a 3 RB/2 WR set, while the other starts a 2 RB/3 WR set."

In a two-point conversion attempt, the team that just scored must run a play from close to the opponent's goal line (5-yard line in amateur Canadian, 3-yard line in professional Canadian, 3-yard line in amateur American, 2-yard line in professional American) and advance the ball across the goal line in the same manner as if they were scoring a touchdown. If the team succeeds, it earns two additional points on top of the six points for the touchdown. If the team fails, no additional points are scored. In either case, if any time remains in the half, the team proceeds to a kickoff. Various sources estimate the success rate of a two-point conversion to be between 40% and 55%, significantly lower than that of the extra point, though if the higher value is to be believed, a higher expected value is achieved through the two-point conversion than the extra point.

Go to: Abstract Objective: To characterize the causes, effects, and risks associated with concussion in sports. Background: Concussion is an injury associated with sports and is most often identified with boxing, football, ice hockey, and the martial arts. In addition, recent research has shown that concussion occurs in many different sports. In the decade of the 1990s, concussion became a primary issue for discussion among the media, sports sponsors, sports medicine professionals, and athletes. Description: Concussion is an injury that results from a wide variety of mechanisms and has numerous signs and symptoms that are common to different types of injury. Continued improvement in prevention and management strategies for concussion requires a strong body of research from a variety of different disciplines. It is essential that research efforts focus on both prevention and management and that researchers and clinicians work closely toward their common goals."

Aaron Rodgers of the Packers, who will start at quarterback in the upcoming Super Bowl, just switched to a helmet he thinks offers superior protection. Rodgers says the helmet prevented a concussion when he took a brutal blow to the head from Julius Peppers of the Chicago Bears in the NFC Championship Game. So a Super Bowl quarterback has found a helmet that might reduce the concussion plague, protecting huge numbers of football players at the college, high school and youth levels. Good news? Here's the catch -- Rodgers won't tell you what kind of helmet he switched to. Neither will the Green Bay Packers. A Super Bowl quarterback and his team have information that might increase neurological safety -- and won't share it. During the regular season, Rodgers suffered two concussions. When he returned to the field late in the year, Rodgers said he had switched to a helmet that reduces concussion risk."

Here, we will investigate the definition, the steps of the process, what goes in and what comes out of the process, and the chemical formula. Get ready to breathe!Aerobic Respiration Take a deep breath...now exhale. Do you feel it? Every time you breathe in oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide, you are exchanging gases that are a crucial part of your energy metabolism. We don't normally equate oxygen and breathing with metabolizing food, yet the latter cannot occur without the former. Most living organisms undergo this process, from single-celled bacteria to the multi-celled blue whale. While many microorganisms can accomplish this task within their single cell, we larger macroorganisms have evolved body organs dedicated to efficiently obtaining enough oxygen, and eliminating enough carbon dioxide, to undergo enough aerobic respiration to fuel our large, complex selves. Definition of Aerobic Respiration Respiration is the metabolic process of most living things in which food molecules or glucose are turned into usable energy for the cell, called ATP. Respiration is the anti-process to photosynthesis, the process in which plants use sunlight and carbon dioxide to build food molecules releasing oxygen as a waste product."

"text": "Treadmill Science: A Look at Aerobic and Anaerobic Exercise Treadmill Science: A Look at Aerobic and Anaerobic Exercise Respiration is usually understood to refer to the act of pulmonary respiration. Breathing in oxygen and breathing out the waste products of carbon dioxide (CO 2) and water (H 2 O). Every cell in our body also undergoes a process known as respiration (cellular respiration). Cellular respiration begins with a process that splits the glucose within the cells making it readily available as a source of energy. This process can occur without oxygen (anaerobic respiration) or in the presence of oxygen (aerobic respiration). Anaerobic respiration generates more excess waste (lactate) than does aerobic exercise. Lactate allows the release of energy from cells without the presence of oxygen which originally came in handy when man relied on the fight or flight mechanism needed to escape his enemies or chase down dinner. The problem is it can only be sustained for about three minutes, after that, high levels of lactate build within the muscle cells. Excess lactate slows the cellular respiratory process and is experienced as a burning sensation in the muscles if exercise continues. Our scientific reviews have also found the Proform treadmill, the Sole treadmill and the Horizon treadmill brand (and for a little different workout try a Bowflex) to be the best overall."

"text": "Aerobic vs Anaerobic Exercise – What’s Better For Fat Loss?by Tony Schober - NASM CPT · 8 Comments Is aerobic or anaerobic exercise better for fat loss? Is there a place for both? Let’s take a look at what aerobic and anaerobic exercise are and then find out the best way to structure our exercise program for max fat loss. Aerobic Exercise Aerobic exercise is exercise that is typically lower in intensity and is done for a long duration. Aerobic exercise primarily uses fat for energy. Some of these aerobic exercises are activities such as walking, light jogging, bicycling, or using the elliptical machine. Now, some of these can certainly be used for high-intensity exercise if you push yourself hard enough, but more times than not, they are used for staying in your fat-burning zone. Anaerobic Exercise Anaerobic exercise is typically high intensity and is done for short bursts of time. The primary fuel source for anaerobic exercise is glycogen, which is manufactured from glucose. When exercising in your anaerobic zone, your body is unable to break down fatty acids fast enough to fuel your workout."

The range of aerobic methods available and the different ways in which to engage in cardio are many - enough to cause confusion for those wanting to shed excess weight to reveal their hard-won muscles. Question is: what are the best methods of aerobic exercise? Is there a perfect way to lose fat through cardiovascular means, and if so, what is it? Aerobic activity by its very nature requires fat to be used as a primary fuel source, with carbohydrates and protein being used to a smaller extent. Therefore it is obvious that in order to lose fat, some degree of aerobic work will need to be done."

"text": "<-- Components of the week Training phases -->How far to run There is probably no greater topic of controversy among runners than the ideal mileage. As far as we know, aerobic capacity does not improve if you run more than 50 miles a week. So if you are interested only in increasing your fitness, this is probably the maximum mileage you need to run. You can, of course, maintain a good level of fitness on much less. Dave on the home straight Running performance can continue to improve beyond 50 miles a week, however, even though aerobic conditioning does not. The benefits of big mileage include improvements in the runner’s ability to burn fat, increased muscular endurance and maintenance of body weight. The upper limit for physiologically useful increases in mileage appears to be around 80-100 miles a week; though many elite athletes run 100-120 miles a week. Most amateurs runners don’t run anything like this sort of distance each week. Clearly, a number of factors affect the optimum mileage:lifestyle constraints, such as family and work commitments, and other leisure activities;the distances, if any, at which we want to race (marathon runners need a higher weekly mileage than 5km runners)our capacity to train before we get injured or ill; this is greatly affected by how we train, but there are also some inherited differences. Here is a table setting out a rough guide of recommended mileages for runners of different experience at different race distances. ["

Respiration is the process of converting nutrients into usable energy. Several different mechanisms exist in the bacterial world. In this lesson, we will examine the role of oxygen in bacterial aerobic respiration. Metabolic Building Blocks Humans consume food for energy and use oxygen for respiration in a process referred to as metabolism. Believe it or not, bacterial cells carry out almost exactly the same processes. Understanding bacterial metabolism can be difficult. There are many pathways and enzymes, and it is not always clear how they link together. In this lesson, we will use a simple way to visualize some metabolic pathways. So stick with me, and by the end, you should have a good understanding of some basic pathways and how they fit together in a bacterial cell."

"text": "The Three C’s of Metabolic Strength Training This is an excerpt from Strength Training for Fat Loss by Nick Tumminello. What Is Metabolic Strength Training? The basis of this book is metabolic strength training, which means using innovative strength training concepts to accelerate metabolism in order to help you lose body fat while building and keeping muscle. In addition, the programs are designed to give you a great workout that you actually enjoy. Let’s check out what the concepts of metabolic strength training are, how they work, and why they may be safer and more effective than other fat-loss training methods. This book uses three metabolic strength training concepts, which I call the three Cs of strength training for fat loss: Strength training circuits Strength training complexes Strength training combinations Chapters 4 through 6 are each dedicated to one of the three Cs. In these chapters you’ll learn what each of these metabolic protocols is and how to perform a multitude of practical exercise applications from basic to advanced levels using everything from barbells to dumbbells, kettlebells, medicine balls, stability balls, resistance bands, and cables. Additionally, chapter 7 covers body-weight training techniques using the three Cs, and chapter 9 explains the Fat-Loss Five circuit training formula. With all of the metabolic strength training concepts available in this book, you’ll be able to immediately apply a large variety of techniques to help you incinerate body fat and dramatically improve your fitness and conditioning without losing muscle mass, regardless of your fitness level, space, or equipment limitations. How the Three Cs Work There are three reasons why the three Cs of metabolic strength training are extremely effective at burning fat.1."

It is the result of a tree or tree-like plants having completely transitioned to stone by the process of permineralization. All the organic materials have been replaced with minerals, while retaining the original structure of the stem tissue. Unlike other types of fossils which are typically impressions or compressions, petrified wood is a three-dimensional representation of the original organic material. The petrifaction process occurs underground, when wood becomes buried under sediment and is initially preserved due to a lack of oxygen which inhibits aerobic decomposition. Mineral-laden water flowing through the sediment deposits minerals in the plant's cells; as the plant's lignin and cellulose decay, a stone mould forms in its place. The organic matter needs to become petrified before it decomposes completely. A forest where such material has petrified becomes known as a petrified forest.

Briefly, a sonnet is a type of lyric poem with fourteen lines, tightly specified rhyme scheme that is designed to give a pleasant musical effect, and emphasis on precise expression. What's the Difference? Italian sonnets are the older of the two types of sonnets discussed here, and they are often called Petrarchan sonnets. Their fourteen lines are divided into an octave of eight lines and a sestet of six lines. The octave has a rhyme scheme of ABBA, ABBA, and the sestet has either CDE, CDE, or CD, CD, CD. Often, the rhyme scheme of an Italian sonnet is not nearly as easy to write as that of an English sonnet, since it was originally created to be used in the Italian language. The octave of an Italian sonnet presents a problem, lament, narrative, proposition, or statement, while the sestet presents the solution or denouement, as it were. Italian Sonnets With those technicalities out of the way, we can look at an example of an Italian sonnet by John Milton."

"text": "\"Humanities ›Literature The Sonnet: A Poem in 14 Lines Shakespeare Is the Master of This Poetic Form Share Flipboard Email Print Heritage Images/Hulton Archive/Getty Imagesby Bob Holman & Margery Snyder Updated October 27, 2017Before William Shakespeare’s day, the word “sonnet” meant simply “little song,” from the Italian \"\"sonnetto,\"\" and the name could be applied to any short lyric poem. In Renaissance Italy and then in Elizabethan England, the sonnet became a fixed poetic form, consisting of 14 lines, usually iambic pentameter in English. Different types of sonnets evolved in the different languages of the poets writing them, with variations in rhyme scheme and metrical pattern. But all sonnets have a two-part thematic structure, containing a problem and solution, a question and answer or a proposition and reinterpretation within their 14 lines and a \"\"volta,\"\" or turn, between the two parts. Sonnet Form The original form is the Italian or Petrarchan sonnet, in which the 14 lines are arranged in an octet (8 lines) rhyming abba abba and a sestet (6 lines) rhyming either cdecde or cdcdcd. The English or Shakespearean sonnet came later, and it is made of three quatrains rhyming abab cdcd efef and a closing rhymed heroic couplet. The Spenserian sonnet is a variation developed by Edmund Spenser in which the quatrains are linked by their rhyme scheme: abab bcbc cdcd ee. Since its introduction into English in the 16th century, the 14-line sonnet form has remained relatively stable, proving itself a flexible container for all kinds of poetry, long enough that its images and symbols can carry detail rather than becoming cryptic or abstract, and short enough to require a distillation of poetic thought. For more extended poetic treatment of a single theme, some poets have written sonnet cycles, a series of sonnets on related issues, often addressed to a single person. Another form is the sonnet crown, a sonnet series linked by repeating the last line of one sonnet in the first line of the next, until the circle is closed by using the first line of the first sonnet as the last line of the last sonnet."

Let me count the ways\"\" is one of the most famous love poems in the English language. Because it's so famous, many readers mistakenly attribute the poem to that master sonneteer, William Shakespeare. However, \"\"How do I love thee?\"\" was written centuries after Shakespeare – in fact, it's only been around for a little over 150 years. Prominent Victorian poet Elizabeth Barrett Browning first published the poem in 1850. The poem was part of a sonnet sequence called Sonnets from the Portuguese. The title of the sequence is intentionally misleading; Barrett Browning implied to her readers that these were sonnets originally written by someone else in Portuguese and that she had translated them, whereas in reality they were her own original compositions in English.

The first two of these underlying themes are the focus of the early sonnets addressed to the young man (in particular Sonnets 1-17) where the poet argues that having children to carry on one's beauty is the only way to conquer the ravages of time. In the middle sonnets of the young man sequence the poet tries to immortalize the young man through his own poetry (the most famous examples being Sonnet 18 and Sonnet 55). Read on...

The dark lady, who ultimately betrays the poet, appears in sonnets 127 to 154. Sonnet 130 is clearly a parody of the conventional love sonnet, made popular by Petrarch and, in particular, made popular in England by Sidney's use of the Petrarchan form in his epic poem Astrophel and Stella. _______ Sonnet 55 is one of Shakespeare's most famous works and a noticeable deviation from other sonnets in which he appears insecure about his relationships and his own self-worth. Here we find an impassioned burst of confidence as the poet claims to have the power to keep his friend's memory alive evermore. _______ In Sonnet 73 the poet prepares his young friend, not for the approaching literal death of his body, but the metaphorical death of his youth and passion."

"text": "Definition of Sonnet A sonnet is a poetic form that has fourteen lines. It originated in Italy in the thirteenth century, and though it has generally kept some of the original rules, such as the number of lines and having a specific rhyme scheme and meter, the conventions of sonnets have changed over the centuries to some degree. There are two primary branches of the sonnet form—the Italian or Petrarchan sonnet and the English or Shakespearean sonnet. We will look further into the differences between these types of sonnet below. The word sonnet comes from the Italian word sonneto, which means “a little poem. ”Types of Sonnet Though the definition of sonnet states that the poem must have fourteen lines, there are a few variations with this form. All sonnets, whether Italian or English, generally are written in iambic pentameter. Italian or Petrarchan Sonnet The Italian sonnet, which was created first, is the combination of an octave (eight lines broken into two quatrains) and a sestet (six lines broken into two tercets). The octave proposes a problem or question, and the sestet generally proposes the solution, or leads toward a conclusion. The ninth line of this sonnet, i.e., the first line of the sestet marks a turn in mood or stance whether or not there is a satisfactory conclusion."

Tweet Pin it Sonnet Poem Sonnet can be defined as,“A verse form of Italian origin consisting of 14 lines in iambic pentameter with rhymes arranged according to a fixed scheme, usually divided either into octave and sestet or, in the English form, into three quatrains and a couplet ”.or“A lyric poem of fourteen lines, often about love, that follows one of several strict conventional patterns of rhyme. Elizabeth Barrett Browning, John Keats, and William Shakespeare are poets known for their sonnets”. The primary meter of all sonnet poems in English poetry is iambic pentameter although there have been a few tetrameter and even hexameter sonnets, as well. History and Origin The term “ sonnet “ is derived from the Occitan word sonet and the Italian word sonetto , meaning “ little song ” or “little sound”. It evolved into a poem consisting of 14 lines by the thirteenth century, following a strict rhyming scheme and specific structure. Sonnet Versus Free Poem Sonnet has predetermined pattern where the same six words are repeated throughout the poem while free verse has no such restrictions. It depends upon the poet’s stylistic approach to prefer sonnet or free verse. A poet who decides to write a sonnet should tend to phrase towards different figures and tropes than a poet who chooses to treat the same poem in free verse form. In a sonnet the content should be well shaped while in free verse the poet has choice to play around with words and ideas."

Traditionally, the sonnet is a fourteen-line poem written in iambic pentameter, which employ one of several rhyme schemes and adhere to a tightly structured thematic organization. Two sonnet forms provide the models from which all other sonnets are formed: the Petrarchan and the Shakespearean. Petrarchan Sonnet The first and most common sonnet is the Petrarchan, or Italian. Named after one of its greatest practitioners, the Italian poet Petrarch, the Petrarchan sonnet is divided into two stanzas, the octave (the first eight lines) followed by the answering sestet (the final six lines). The tightly woven rhyme scheme, abba, abba, cdecde or cdcdcd, is suited for the rhyme-rich Italian language, though there are many fine examples in English. Since the Petrarchan presents an argument, observation, question, or some other answerable charge in the octave, a turn, or volta, occurs between the eighth and ninth lines. This turn marks a shift in the direction of the foregoing argument or narrative, turning the sestet into the vehicle for the counterargument, clarification, or whatever answer the octave demands. Sir Thomas Wyatt introduced the Petrarchan sonnet to England in the early sixteenth century. His famed translations of Petrarch’s sonnets, as well as his own sonnets, drew fast attention to the form."

"text": "Glossary Term: Sonnet A sonnet, in English poetry, is a poem of fourteen lines, usually in iambic pentameter, that has one of two regular rhyme schemes - although there are a couple of exceptions, and years of experimentation that have loosened this definition. One of these schemes is known as the Petrarchan, after the Italian poet Petrarch; it consists of a group of eight lines, rhymed abbaabba, followed by a group of six lines with different rhymes. The distribution of these rhymes can vary, including cdcede, cdecde, cdedce, or even cdcdcd. Often, at the point where the eight-line section, known as the octave, turns into the six-line section, or sestet, there is a volta, from the Italian for 'turn' - this is a shift in the poem's tone, subject or logic that gains power from (or demands?) the matching shift in its structure. The Shakespearean sonnet breaks into three quatrains, followed by a couplet, rhymed abab cdcd efef gg - as the name suggests, this is the form Shakespeare used for his sonnets, although he did not invent it. In Shakespeare's usage, the three quatrains tend to make an argument in three stages, which the couplet will sum up or comment on. The main exceptions are the curtal sonnet, a form invented by Gerard Manley Hopkins that roughly maintains the 8:6 ratio over a ten-and-a-half line poem, and the Meredithian sonnet of 16 lines. The fact that these are still referred to as a curtal and a Meredithian sonnet, however, shows that they are not (yet?) considered sonnets per se."

The form comes from Italy, where the language has more rhymes than English. The poem is divided into two parts. The first eight lines present some argument or question. The next six lines change the rhyme pattern, and provide an answer or counterargument. A Petrarchan sonnet can be serious or funny. Shakespearean Sonnets William Shakespeare did not invent the sonnet form that bears his name, but he did write many of them. The Shakespearean sonnet is actually an adaptation of the Petrarchan sonnet. It is more suited to the English language. There are 14 lines in the Shakespearean sonnet."

The fourteen-line sonnet form with which later became known as the \"\"Italian\"\" or \"\"Petrarchan\"\" sonnet appears to have first been regularized in the work of Guittone of Arezzo, a thirteenth century Italian poet. Petrarch (1304 – 1374) employed the form in his 366-sonnet sequence, Rime Sparse, a collection of poems on the subject of his love for a woman named Laura. Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503 – 1542) and Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey (1517 - 1547) translated Petrarch's sonnets into English and are generally regarded as the founders of the English sonnet tradition. Wyatt, in particular, used the Petrarchan sonnet form extensively in his own poetic works as well as his translations. Although Surrey and other poets of his period wrote English sonnets, due to the fame and influence of Shakespeare's work, the English sonnet is frequently called a \"\"Shakespearean\"\" sonnet. Both forms are fourteen lines long and normally written in iambic pentameter in English. They differ in both rhyme scheme and structure. The Italian sonnet consists of an eight-line octave followed by a six-line sestet. The octave is rhymed as two closed quatrains, ABBAABBA."

"text": "\"A sonnet is a 14-line poem that is written in iambic pentameter. The term \"\"iambic\"\" refers to the type of foot, or unit of rhythm, which in this case is composed of a weaker syllable followed by an accented syllable. \"\" Pentameter\"\" refers to the number of feet in a line, which in this case is five. Therefore, each line in iambic pentameter consists of five two-syllable units of rhythm — essentially \"\"Da dum da dum da dum da dum da dum\"\" in most cases, with \"\"da\"\" being the weaker syllable and \"\"dum\"\" being the accented syllable. The three traditional forms of sonnets are Italian or Petrarchan sonnets, English or Shakespearean sonnets and Spenserian sonnets. Petrarchan sonnets Italian sonnets are commonly called Petrarchan sonnets, after Francesco Petrarca, a 14th-century Italian poet who was also known as Petrarch. A Petrarchan sonnet consists of an eight-line stanza, called an octave, followed by a six-line stanza, called a sestet. This type of sonnet is constructed with a change of thought or turn between the octave and the sestet, although their content and form are aligned. For example, the octave might tell of a conflict, with the sestet telling of the resolution. The rhyming scheme of a Patrarchan sonnet is always abbaabba."

The Italian or Petrarchan sonnet consists of two parts; an octave and a sestet. The octave can be broken down into two quatrains; likewise, the sestet is made up of two tercets.

Baron Von Watermelon · 9 years ago0 5 Comment A 4 oz. glass of wine, a shot of vodka, and a 12 oz beer all have the same amount of alcohol, so three shots and three glasses of wine are about the same. Of course, it depends on the wine. Some white wine is only 10% alcohol, and some red wine is 15% or 16% alchohol. So 3 glasses of 10% wine is the same as 2 glasses of 15% wine.

I think Cliff over here has given a very scientific answer to how many shots of vodka it’ll take to kill an average person. I think I’ll look at this from a different viewpoint. I really don’t believe anyone will want to kill themselves via alcohol poisoning, it’s slow and extremely painful. Not to mention the immense sobriety that must have been present to compel someone to want to drink till death. But what I can empathise with would be people drinking alot to forget about their sorrows. In this case, I’ll tweak the question a little, pardon me, to “How many shots of vodka does it take to knock an average person out?”For me, it probably takes 10–15 shots. And that’s average. But mind you, vodka is a kind of “slow acting” hard liquor, meaning that you can probably feel like King of the World downing your 10–15 shots and feeling like the Alpha male in the room.…..

The hip flask has enjoyed a special place in many a back pocket, purse, or other secure area during events, travels, and other times when a larger container just isn’t conceivable. Many wonder just how much a flask can hold, and the answer depends upon the size of your flask. It is important to know how much alcohol your flask can hold so that you are completely prepared. Flasks are generally employed during situations where you have to limit the size or weight of all that you are carrying, alcohol included. Common outings that call for a flask include camping, sports events, concerts, or a really long meeting at work. You also have to take into account how many will be in your party, as the etiquette of a flask demands that you share with your fellow travelers. It is bad form to keep a flask to yourself, and perhaps should make you pause for some self-reflection time. If you have a problem sharing your flask, then give all your friends a flask for Christmas or their birthdays. Then, you know that you have done all that you can do."

"text": "Active transport: the sodium-potassium pump Since the plasma membrane of the neuron is highly permeable to K + and slightly permeable to Na +, and since neither of these ions is in a state of equilibrium (Na + being at higher concentration outside the cell than inside and K + at higher concentration inside the cell), then a natural occurrence should be the diffusion of both ions down their electrochemical gradients—K + out of the cell and Na + into the cell. However, the concentrations of these ions are maintained at constant disequilibrium, indicating that there is a compensatory mechanism moving Na + outward against its concentration gradient and K + inward. This mechanism is the sodium-potassium pump. Actually a large protein molecule that traverses the plasma membrane of the neuron, the pump presents receptor areas to both the cytoplasm and the extracellular environment. That part of the molecule facing the cytoplasm has a high affinity for Na + and a low affinity for K +, while that part facing the outside has a high affinity for K + and a low affinity for Na +. Stimulated by the action of the ions on its receptors, the pump transports them in opposite directions against their concentration gradients. If equal amounts of Na + and K + were transported across the membrane by the pump, the net charge transfer would be zero; there would be no net flow of current and no effect on the membrane potential. In fact, in many neurons three sodium ions are transported for every potassium ion; sometimes the ratio is three sodium ions for every two potassium ions, and in a few neurons it is two sodium ions for one potassium ion. This inequality of ionic transfer produces a net efflux of positive charge, maintaining a polarized membrane with the inner surface slightly negative in relation to the outer surface. Because it creates this potential difference across the membrane, the sodium-potassium pump is said to be electrogenic."

Digestion is the mechanical and chemical breakdown of food into smaller components that are more easily absorbed into a blood stream, for instance. Digestion is a form of catabolism: a breakdown of large food molecules to smaller ones. When food enters the mouth, digestion of the food starts by the action of mastication, a form of mechanical digestion, and the wetting contact of saliva. Saliva, a liquid secreted by the salivary glands, contains salivary amylase, an enzyme which starts the digestion of starch in the food. After undergoing mastication and starch digestion, the food will be in the form of a small, round slurry mass called a bolus. It will then travel down the esophagus and into the stomach by the action of peristalsis. Gastric juice in the stomach starts protein digestion."

The life-support processes of even the most structurally simple organism involve a large number of complex biochemical reactions. Most, although not all, of the biochemical processes of bacteria also occur in eukaryotic microbes and in the cells of multicellular organisms, including humans. However, the reactions that are unique to bacteria are fascinating because they allow microorganisms to do things we cannot do. For example, some bacteria can live on cellulose, whereas others can live on petroleum. Through their metabolism, bacteria recycle elements after other organisms have used them. Still other bacteria can live on diets of such inorganic substances as carbon dioxide, iron, sulfur, hydrogen gas, and ammonia. This chapter examines some representative chemical reactions that either produce energy (the catabolic reactions) or use energy (the anabolic reactions) in microorganisms. We will also look at how these various reactions are integrated within the cell. Q&A E. coli O157."

"text": "\"ENZYMESCONCEPTEnzymes are biological catalysts, or chemicals that speed up the rate of reaction between substances without themselves being consumed in the reaction. As such, they are vital to such bodily functions as digestion, and they make possible processes that normally could not occur except at temperatures so high they would threaten the well-being of the body. A type of protein, enzymes sometimes work in tandem with non-proteins called coenzymes. Among the processes in which enzymes play a vital role is fermentation, which takes place in the production of alcohol or the baking of bread and also plays a part in numerous other natural phenomena, such as the purification of wastewater. HOW IT WORKSAmino Acids, Proteins, and Biochemistry Amino acids are organic compounds made of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and (in some cases) sulfur bonded in characteristic formations. Strings of 50 or more amino acids are known as proteins, large molecules that serve the functions of promoting normal growth, repairing damaged tissue, contributing to the body's immune system, and making enzymes. The latter are a type of protein that functions as a catalyst, a substance that speeds up a chemical reaction without participating in it. Catalysts, of which enzymes in the bodies of plants and animals are a good example, thus are not consumed in the reaction. Catalysts In a chemical reaction, substances known as reactants interact with one another to create new substances, called products. Energy is an important component in the chemical reaction, because a certain threshold, termed the activation energy, must be crossed before a reaction can occur."

Enzymes work by binding molecules so that they are held in a particular geometric configurationthat allows the reaction to occur. Enzymes are very specific; few molecules closely fit the bindingsite. Each enzyme catalyzes a specific type of chemical reaction between a few closely relatedcompounds, which are called substrates of the enzyme. Enzymes are given names ending in -ase.

We will also look at the most important methods by which cells communicate, discussing how cells send signals and interpret the signals they receive. We will try to understand the biochemistry of phospholipids and how they are organized into membranes. We will also differentiate among diffusion, facilitated transport, facilitated diffusion, osmosis, and active transport. We will describe solution and solute movement in and out of a cell under hyperosmotic, hypoosmotic, or isoosmotic conditions. We will explain and give examples of endocytosis, phagocytosis, pinocytosis, receptor-mediated endocytosis and exocytosis. Finally, we aim to understand the importance of selective permeability in biological systems. Introduction Both unicellular and multicellular organisms need to sense and respond to their environment in order to survive. Unicellular organisms must be able to identify food and differentiate it from poisons or predators, and also tell the difference between light and dark. Cells usually communicate by releasing chemical messengers that can target both adjacent cells as well as those further away."

The most eloquent illustration is found in the measurement of flour, which can vary considerably depending on the quality of the flour, how much you pack into the cup, and the humidity of the air. Personal preferences aside, more and more American cooks are adding scales to their kitchen equipment — especially those who are serious about baking, and those who have an interest in foreign recipes — and in my books and on Chocolate & Zucchini I feature both sets of measurements.

That 3-ounce potato, whether you prefer Russet, red bliss or a sweet potato, has about 1.75 to 2.25 grams of protein.

I start with a bag of frozen riced cauliflower like the one below: I add egg, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning. Bake it. And I get this gorgeous cauliflower pizza crust. Why not just buy the cauliflower pizza crust from Trader Joe’s? Because 1 slice has 17 Grams of Carbs! ( Mine has 3 grams). Not that there’s anything wrong with eating carbs but if you’re specifically eating CAULIFLOWER pizza it’s most likely because you’re trying NOT to eat as many carbs so it kind of defeats the purpose. ( Peep those nutrition facts). The carbs come from the fact that the TJ’s crust has corn flour and potato starch in it."

If you regularly add sweeteners, such as granulated sugar or brown sugar, to foods or beverages, it's important to know how many calories this contributes to your daily intake. You can also compare the number of calories you're consuming from sugar to recommended guidelines for sugar intake. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Step 1Measure the amount of sugar you are adding to your food or beverage to determine the total number of teaspoons. For reference -- one tablespoon equals 3 teaspoons and 1/8 cup is 6 teaspoons. One cube of sugar is about 1/2 teaspoon and a single sugar packet is about 2/3 teaspoon. Step 2Multiply the number of teaspoons by 4 to get the total grams of sugar, because there are 4 grams of sugar per teaspoon of granulated sugar, according to the U. S. Department of Agriculture. Step 3Multiply the total grams of sugar from step 2 by four to get the total calories from sugar, because there are 4 calories per gram of sugar. For example, there are 32 calories in 8 grams of sugar, which equals 2 teaspoons.

On the one hand, I cannot pass winters without having my weekly dose of ‘Mooli ke parathe ’ and hot coffee (gastric troubles be damned!). However, present me with a radish salad or juice, and I will run away. Trust me; this method works better than a smelly sock on me. Whatever is the case, the beauty and health benefits of radish cannot be ignored. It’s actually a nutrient haven.

Fogoros, MDUpdated December 03, 2017Share Pin Email Print Knowing how much carbohydrate you are eating is vital on a low-carb diet. One way to do this is to count carb grams. Depending on the diet plan you are on, you'll need to know whether you're supposed to count total carbohydrate or net carbohydrate. For example, the way most diabetics learn carb counting, total carb grams are used, whereas the Atkins diet uses net carbs. As a general rule, diets under about 50-60 grams of carb per day use net carbs, whereas diets with more carb (up to about 200 grams of carb per day is considered \"\"low-carb\"\" by some definitions) use total carbs in their counting.1 Total Carbohydrate or Net Carbs? If you are eating these foods on a low-carb diet, it's important to know how much carb they have. Adam Gault/OJO Images/Getty Images Choosing the right type of carb counting can make a difference as to the success of your diet plan, so do pay attention to this. What is total carbohydrate? A total carb count will include all the carbohydrate in the food, whatever the source. What is a net carb count?"

In the past year, I’ve received more than the usual number of inquiries asking me how much the gluten-free flours that I use in my gluten-free flour mixes actually weigh. And so I’m finally going to put the weights, along with an explanation, here as a blog post for anyone who’s interested (I had already posted most of them in a less detailed response to a question on the Guide to Flour Mix page). Years ago, I weighed each of the flours and the mixes myself (I weighed each of them between 10 and 15 times) and also asked more than ten of my regular field testers to do it in their own kitchens at least five times. In many cases, the weights were identical. If they were weren’t identical, and there wasn’t a huge difference (there never was), I took the average. It is important for you to realize that a fraction of an ounce or gram is not going make or break a recipe. I still use measuring cups to measure all my flour because for me, it is faster and easier and it works every time. But if you want to weigh the flour to make my mixes, here is what you’ll need to know."

That morning, Watson and Crick had figured out the structure of deoxyribonucleic acid, DNA. And that structure — a \"\"double helix\"\" that can \"\"unzip\"\" to make copies of itself — confirmed suspicions that DNA carries life's hereditary information. Not until decades later, in the age of genetic engineering, would the Promethean power unleashed that day become vivid. But from the beginning, the Watson and Crick story had traces of hubris. As told in Watson's classic memoir, \"\"The Double Helix,\"\" it was a tale of boundless ambition, impatience with authority and disdain, if not contempt, for received opinion. (\"\" A goodly number of scientists,\"\" Watson explained, \"\"are not only narrow-minded and dull but also just stupid.\"\") Yet the Watson and Crick story is also one of sublime harmony, an example, as a colleague put it, of \"\"that marvelous resonance between two minds — that high state in which 1 plus 1 does not equal 2 but more like 10.\"\" The men were in some ways an odd pair."

All living cells in multicellular organisms contain an internal cytoplasmic compartment, and a nucleus within the cytoplasm. Cytosol, the jelly-like substance within the cell, provides the fluid medium necessary for biochemical reactions. Eukaryotic cells, including all animal cells, also contain various cellular organelles. An organelle (“little organ”) is one of several different types of membrane-enclosed bodies in the cell, each performing a unique function. Just as the various bodily organs work together in harmony to perform all of a human’s functions, the many different cellular organelles work together to keep the cell healthy and performing all of its important functions. The organelles and cytosol, taken together, compose the cell’s cytoplasm. The nucleus is a cell’s central organelle, which contains the cell’s DNA ( [link] ).

"text": "Secretory vesicles The release of proteins or other molecules from a secretory vesicle is most often stimulated by a nervous or hormonal signal. For example, a nerve cell impulse triggers the fusion of secretory vesicles to the membrane at the nerve terminal, where the vesicles release neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft (the gap between nerve endings). The action is one of exocytosis: the vesicle and the cell membrane fuse, allowing the proteins and glycoproteins in the vesicle to be released to the cell exterior. Chemical transmission of a nerve impulse at the synapse The arrival of the nerve impulse at the presynaptic terminal stimulates the release of neurotransmitter into the synaptic gap. The binding of the neurotransmitter to receptors on the postsynaptic membrane stimulates the regeneration of the action potential in the postsynaptic neuron. Encyclopædia Britannica, Inc. As secretory vesicles fuse with the cell membrane, the area of the cell membrane increases. Normal size is regained by the reuptake of membrane components through endocytosis. Regions bud in from the cell membrane and then fuse with internal membranes to effect recycling. Sorting of products by chemical receptors Not all proteins synthesized on the ER are destined for export. Many, such as the hydrolases in lysosomes, remain inside the cell; others become anchored in the membrane of internal organelles or in the cell membrane."

Some eukaryotic cells are independent, single-celled microorganisms, whereas others are part of multicellular organisms. The cells of eukaryotic organisms have several distinguishing characteristics. Above all, eukaryotic cells are defined by the presence of a nucleus surrounded by a complex nuclear membrane. Also, eukaryotic cells are characterized by the presence of membrane-bound organelles in the cytoplasm. Organelles such as mitochondria, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, and peroxisomes are held in place by the cytoskeleton, an internal network that supports transport of intracellular components and helps maintain cell shape ( Figure ). The genome of eukaryotic cells is packaged in multiple, rod-shaped chromosomes as opposed to the single, circular-shaped chromosome that characterizes most prokaryotic cells.

"text": "\"Combinations of Polypeptides Protein molecules are capable of coming together and forming complex arrangements or structures that are composed of more than one polypeptide subunit. Quite often, these larger structures also contain extra, non-protein material such as carbohydrate, lipid or even polynucleotides. These giant, \"\"super-molecules\"\", can take the form of multicomponent enzyme complexes, strong filaments that hold the contents of cells in place or are specialized for such roles as contraction (in muscles), ribosomes, membranes and hybrid structures such as viruses. Hemoglobin, for example, is an important oxygen carrying protein that consists of four polypeptides (two alpha-chains and two beta-chains) and four non-protein, iron containing, ring-like structures where the oxygen molecules are bound and carried. Such proteins are said to have quaternary structure, and these larger polypeptide arrangements can sometimes reach very large sizes. Probably the record quaternary structure protein is found in the bacterium Escherichia coli, where a cytoplasmic enzyme called pyruvate dehydrogenase is composed of 88 polypeptide subunits organized into three massive groups of catalytic enzymes. Cells and organisms take advantage of the fact that it is both easier, and needs less genetic information, to assemble very large complexes from smaller, easier to make subunits. For example, only one gene coding for a single polypeptide can produce enough small subunits to assemble into a very large protein filament that can stretch all the way across the interior of a cell. This is a great saving in the amount of genetic information which must be stored. When the cell needs a particular structure, it is easy to assemble one from the component subunits, and then dissemble those same subunits when the structure is no longer needed."

Eukaryotic cells are found in most algae, protozoa, all multicellular organisms (plants and animals) including humans. The genetic material in the nucleus forms multiple chromosomes that are linear and complexed with proteins that help the DNA 'pack' and are involved in regulation of gene expression. The cells of higher plants differ from animal cells in that they have large vacuoles, a cell wall, chloroplasts, and a lack of lysosomes, centrioles, pseudopods, and flagella or cilia.

However, with microscopes of various types, plant cells can be readily viewed and studied. In young parts of plant and fruits, cell shapes are generally round, while in older sections, the cells are somewhat boxlike with up to 14 sides as they become packed together. A plant cell is bounded by a cell wall and the living portion of the cell is within the walls and is divided into two portions: the nucleus, or central control center; and the cytoplasm, a fluid in which membrane bound organelles are found. Between the primary cell walls of adjacent plant cells, lies a pectic middle lamella. There can be a secondary cell wall which would be located just to the inside of the primary wall. Both walls consist mainly of cellulose, but the secondary cell wall may contain lignin and other substances. The outer boundary of the protoplasm (cytoplasm and nucleus) is a sandwich-like, flexible plasma membrane. This membrane regulates what enters and leaves the plant cell.

Found in every nucleus of a persons many trillions of cells, the human genome consists of tightly coiled threads of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and associated protein molecules, organized into structures called chromosomes. In humans, as in other higher organisms, a DNA molecule consists of two strands that wrap around each other to resemble a twisted ladder whose sides are made up of sugar and phosphate molecules. They are connected by rungs of nitrogen containing chemical called bases. Each strand is a linear arrangement of repeating similar units called nucleotides, which are composed of one sugar, one phosphate, and a nitrogenous base. There are four different bases present in DNA, adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C), and guanine (G). The particular order of the bases arranged along the sugar phosphate backbone is called DNA sequence. The sequence specifies the exact genetic instructions required to create a particular organism with its own unique traits. Each time a cell divides into two daughter cells, its full genome is duplicated; for humans and other complex organisms, this duplication occurs in the nucleus."

"text": "Print Overview Iron deficiency anemia is a common type of anemia — a condition in which blood lacks adequate healthy red blood cells. Red blood cells carry oxygen to the body's tissues. As the name implies, iron deficiency anemia is due to insufficient iron. Without enough iron, your body can't produce enough of a substance in red blood cells that enables them to carry oxygen (hemoglobin). As a result, iron deficiency anemia may leave you tired and short of breath. You can usually correct iron deficiency anemia with iron supplementation. Sometimes additional tests or treatments for iron deficiency anemia are necessary, especially if your doctor suspects that you're bleeding internally. Symptoms Initially, iron deficiency anemia can be so mild that it goes unnoticed. But as the body becomes more deficient in iron and anemia worsens, the signs and symptoms intensify. Iron deficiency anemia signs and symptoms may include: Extreme fatigue Weakness Pale skin Chest pain, fast heartbeat or shortness of breath Headache, dizziness or lightheadedness Cold hands and feet Inflammation or soreness of your tongue Brittle nails Unusual cravings for non-nutritive substances, such as ice, dirt or starch Poor appetite, especially in infants and children with iron deficiency anemia When to see a doctor If you or your child develops signs and symptoms that suggest iron deficiency anemia, see your doctor."

As your doctor monitors your hemoglobin levels, she may suggest that you increase or decrease your supplementation dose. Supplement treatment should return hemoglobin levels to normal within 2 months. You may need to continue taking supplements for another 6 to 12 months to replenish stores of iron in bone marrow, however."

"text": "What Is Iron Deficiency Anemia? Print Iron deficiency anemia occurs when the body’s usual stores of iron are so depleted that the bone marrow cannot produce enough hemoglobin, the iron-containing protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen in the bloodstream. Iron deficiency is the most common cause of anemia, is rarely serious, and is easily treated in most cases. In fact, in mild chronic cases, it often produces few or no symptoms and is generally discovered only when a doctor obtains a complete blood count (CBC). Of course, more severe anemia gradually leads to noticeable fatigue and other symptoms. What Causes Iron Deficiency Anemia? The most common cause of iron deficiency anemia is gradual, prolonged blood loss. For this reason, menstruating women are particularly prone to anemia. In men, the most common cause of iron deficiency is blood loss in the digestive tract, resulting from disorders such as peptic ulcer, inflammatory bowel disease, and stomach or colon cancer. Sometimes hemorrhoids bleed enough to result in anemia."

Related to Anemia: iron deficiency anemiaanemia [ ah-ne´me-ah] a condition in which there is reduced delivery of oxygen to the tissues; it is not actually a diseasebut rather a symptom of any of numerous different disorders and other conditions. The World Health Organization has defined anemia as a hemoglobin concentration below 7.5 mmol/L (12 g/d L) in women and below 8.1 mmol/L (13 g/d L) in men. Peripheral blood smears from a patient with megaloblastic anemia (left) and from a normal subject (right), both at the same magnification. The smear from the patientshows variation in the size and shape of erythrocytes and the presence of macro-ovalocytes. From Goldman and Bennett, 2000. Some types of anemia are named forthe factors causingthem: poor diet ( nutritional anemia ), excessiveblood loss ( hemorrhagic anemia ), congenital defects of hemoglobin ( hypochromic anemia ), exposure to industrial poisons, diseases of the bone marrow ( aplastic anemia and hypoplastic anemia ), or any other disorder that upsets the balance between blood loss through bleeding or destruction of blood cells and production of blood cells. Anemias can also be classified according to the morphologic characteristics of the erythrocytes, such as size ( microcytic, macrocytic, andnormocytic anemias) and color or hemoglobin concentration ( hypochromic anemia ). A typecalled hypochromic microcytic anemia is characterized by very small erythrocytes that have lowhemoglobin concentration and hence poor coloration. Data used to identify anemia types include theerythrocyte indices: (1) mean corpuscular volume (MCV), the average erythrocyte volume; (2) meancorpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), the average amount of hemoglobin per erythrocyte; and (3) meancorpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), the average concentration of hemoglobin in erythrocytes."

For this reason, doctors sometimes describe someone with anemia as having a low blood count. A person who has anemia is called anemic. Blood is comprised of two parts: a liquid called the plasma and a cellular part. The cellular part contains several different cell types. One of the most important and the most numerous cell types are red blood cells. The other cell types are the white blood cells and platelets. Only red blood cells are discussed in this article. The purpose of the red blood cell is to deliver oxygen from the lungs to other parts of the body. Red blood cells are produced through a series of complex and specific steps."

Iron-deficiency anemia occurs when there is not adequate iron to form enough healthy red blood cells or erythrocytes. When the body’s red blood cell count drops, oxygen transport to all the cell’s of the body slows down causing fatigue, weakness and other symptoms. There are several types of anemia, which can be caused by low levels of nutrients such as vitamin B-12 and folic acid. Mayo Clinic.com notes that iron-deficiency anemia is the most common type.

[ 1] For some of you that may be surprising, given the fact that many people aren’t aware of the health concern and what it involves. I was one of these people, until I was diagnosed with it myself a few years ago. The symptoms can be mild to severe and they usually develop over a period of time. Unfortunately, many people don’t realize they have an iron deficiency and may attribute their troubles to something else (such as stress, a hormonal imbalance, another malady or just daily living). With an estimated 1.6 billion people globally suffering from iron deficiency anemia, it is important to be aware of the problem, the cause, the symptoms and treatment. [ 2]What Is Iron Deficiency Anemia? Iron deficiency anemia is a condition where your blood lacks adequate healthy red blood cells. It typically is caused by an insufficient amount of iron in the body. This can result from numerous causes including lack of iron in your diet, iron absorption issues, or blood loss in the body from an ulcer, polyp, cancer or some other illness."

S. Anemia occurs when there are too few red blood cells in the blood. Anemia is a symptom of a wide variety of mild to serious diseases, disorders and conditions. Anemia can result from nutritional deficiencies, trauma, hemorrhage, transfusion reaction, malabsorption, chronic diseases, inherited diseases, autoimmune diseases, malignancy, and treatments for malignancy, such as chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Anemia can occur when the body does not produce enough red blood cells, such as in vitamin B12 deficiency. Anemia can also occur when the body destroys old red blood cells faster than it produces now ones, such as in hemolytic anemia and sickle cell disease. Anemia can also occur when there is a deficiency of hemoglobin in the red blood cells, such as in iron deficiency anemia and thalassemia. Any disease, disorder or condition that causes heavy bleeding ( hemorrhage) can also cause anemia."

"text": "What Is Mild Anemia?by DIANE LANIGAN Aug. 14, 2017A reduction in the normal amount of red blood cells in the body causes anemia. Red blood cells, which are produced in the bone marrow, contain hemoglobin molecules that carry oxygen to all parts of the body. If red blood cells decrease, hemoglobin and oxygen availability decrease accordingly, resulting in anemia. Anemia can be classified as mild, moderate or severe. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Definition Normal hemoglobin levels range from 11.5 mg/d L to 17.5 mg/d L depending on gender. The World Health Organization (WHO) defines anemia as a hemoglobin level less than 13.0 g/d L in adult men and less than 12 g/d L in adult women. Data presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting (ASCO) in 2005 defined mild anemia as hemoglobin concentrations in the range of 12 g/d L to 14 g/d L for men or 10 g/d L to 12 g/d L for women. Types Low levels of iron cause iron deficiency anemia, the most common type of anemia. It affects about 1 to 2 percent of adults in the United States. Iron is needed to make hemoglobin."

"text": "Iron Deficiency (without anemia)What In iron deficiency, the amount of iron stored away for later use is reduced but has no effect on functional iron– the iron needed to meet the daily needs of an individual. If the body requires increased iron (due to a rapid growth spurt, for example), a person with inadequate stored iron has no reserves to use. Iron deficiency is 2.5 times as common as iron deficiency anemia. Cause Institutionalized children are at particular risk for iron-deficiency due to the possibilities of poor maternal prenatal care, poor maternal health, low birth weight, bottle-feeding with formula that is not iron-fortified, tea drinking, a diet low in iron-containing foods, and intestinal parasites. International adoptees are at risk for iron deficiency because they often have diets low in iron prior to adoption. Even if they do not have an iron deficiency upon adoption, they may have low iron stores. Once adopted, their improved diet, along with added activity and love and attention from a family, usually leads to a growth spurt in the initial period at home. The body calls upon the inadequate stores and can then become iron deficient. Symptoms Symptoms of iron deficiency can range from no symptoms at all to the same symptoms seen in iron deficiency anemia:extreme fatiguepale skinweaknessshortness of breathheadachelightheadednesscold hands and feetinflammation or soreness of tonguebrittle or spoon-shaped nailsunusual cravings for non-nutritive substances such as ice, dirt, or pure starch (a condition known as “pica”)poor appetite (especially in infants and children)irritabilitydifficulty thinkingrapid heartbeathair loss Diagnosis Iron deficiency without anemia is identified by low ferritin, a high Zn PP, or a low MCV on the CBC. Implications Like Iron Deficiency Anemia, Iron Deficiency is a risk to the brain."

Iron is important because it helps you get enough oxygen throughout your body. Your body uses iron to make hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is a part of your red blood cells. Hemoglobin carries oxygen through your body. If you do not have enough iron, your body makes fewer and smaller red blood cells. Then your body has less hemoglobin, and you cannot get enough oxygen. Iron deficiency is the most common cause of anemia. What causes iron deficiency anemia?"

"text": "Iron Deficiency Anemia Symptoms Causes Risk factors Diagnosis Anemia in women Complications Treatment Prevention Outlook What is iron deficiency anemia? Anemia occurs when you have a decreased level of hemoglobin in your red blood cells (RBCs). Hemoglobin is the protein in your RBCs that is responsible for carrying oxygen to your tissues. Iron deficiency anemia is the most common type of anemia, and it occurs when your body doesn’t have enough of the mineral iron. Your body needs iron to make hemoglobin. When there isn’t enough iron in your blood stream, the rest of your body can’t get the amount of oxygen it needs. While the condition may be common, many people don’t know they have iron deficiency anemia. It’s possible to experience the symptoms for years without ever knowing the cause. In women of childbearing age, the most common cause of iron deficiency anemia is a loss of iron in the blood due to heavy menstruation or pregnancy. A poor diet or certain intestinal diseases that affect how the body absorbs iron can also cause iron deficiency anemia."

One odd symptom, which in some cases is also a cause of iron deficiency, is pica. This is the habit of eating unusual substances, such as ice (called pagophagia), clay, cardboard, foods that crunch (such as raw potatoes, carrots, or celery), or raw starch. The pica often stops, particularly in children, when iron supplements are given. Pica is difficult to detect because patients are often ashamed to admit to such cravings. Frequent Breath Holding."

Iron-deficiency anemia is the most common type of anemia and occurs due to inadequate amounts of iron in the body. Iron-deficiency anemia commonly develops as a result of blood loss. Crohn’s disease, a chronic digestive condition characterized by inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract, often leads to blood loss. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Physiology Your red blood cells carry oxygen to the tissues in your body as well as remove carbon dioxide from them. At the center of each red blood cell lies an iron-rich protein called hemoglobin. According to “Nutrition and You” by Joan Salge Blake, two-thirds of the iron in your body is located in your hemoglobin. If you do not have enough iron, you cannot create healthy red blood cells. Normally, your body reuses most of the iron you have available to build red blood cells. When you lose blood, you lose a significant amount of iron and red blood cells cannot be made properly."

Thiscondition can also develop when intestinal fluids, bile, pancreatic juices, or bacteria invade or inflame the smooth, transparent membrane that lines the inside of the abdomen (peritoneum). However, ascites is more often associated with liver disease and other long-lasting (chronic)conditions. Types of ascites Cirrhosis, which is responsible for 80% of all instances of ascities in the United States, triggers a series of disease-producing changes that weaken the kidney's ability to excrete sodium in theurine. Pancreatic ascites develops when a cyst that has thick, fibrous walls (pseudocyst) bursts andpermits pancreatic juices to enter the abdominal cavity. Chylous ascites has a milky appearance caused by lymph that has leaked into the abdominalcavity. Although chylous ascites is sometimes caused by trauma, abdominal surgery,tuberculosis, or another peritoneal infection, it is usually a symptom of lymphoma or some othercancer.

The most important function of the liver is the processing of chemical waste products likecholesterol and excreting them into the intestines as bile. The liver is the premier chemicalfactory in the body—most incoming and outgoing chemicals pass through it. It is the first stop forall nutrients, toxins, and drugs absorbed by the digestive tract.

"text": "Related Articles1Accumulated Deficit vs. Retained Earnings2The Impact of Negative Retained Earnings3How to Find Retained Earnings on a Classified Balance Sheet4What Is a Shareholder Deficit? Retained earnings refer to profits a company has kept since its beginning that it hasn’t paid out as dividends. When a business has paid more dividends and generated more net losses than profits over the life of the business, it has negative retained earnings, which it reports as an accumulated deficit in the stockholders’ equity section of its balance sheet. An accumulated deficit on your small business’s balance sheet typically has a negative effect on your business. Net Income and Net Losses A business reports its net income or net loss on its income statement each period. Net income is synonymous with profit. Net income increases retained earnings on the balance sheet, while net losses and dividend distributions decrease retained earnings. For example, if your small business generates $20,000 in profit in a quarter and you don’t pay out any dividends, your retained earnings would increase by $20,000. Retained Earnings and Accumulated Deficit Calculation A company’s retained earnings or accumulated deficit equals the total net income minus the total dividends paid minus the total net losses incurred since its inception. For example, if your small business generated $200,000 in net income, paid $50,000 in dividends and incurred $250,000 in net losses since its beginning, you would report negative $100,000 as an accumulated deficit on your balance sheet, because $200,000 minus $50,000 minus $250,000 equals negative $100,000."

Description There are two types of abscesses, septic and sterile. Most abscesses are septic, which meansthat they are the result of an infection. Septic abscesses can occur anywhere in the body. Only a germ and the body's immune response are required. In response to the invading germ, whiteblood cells gather at the infected site and begin producing chemicals called enzymes that attackthe germ by digesting it. These enzymes act like acid, killing the germs and breaking them downinto small pieces that can be picked up by the circulation and eliminated from the body."

"text": "Full Answer Also called a dichotomous key, a taxonomic key gives users a systematic and reproducible way to identify items and organisms. It is used for a variety of purposes, such as identifying unknown organisms to a certain taxonomic level (e.g. family, genus and species) and identifying rocks or minerals. Taxonomic keys are commonly used by scientists, researchers and students. They are ordered in a manner that leads the user to the correct identity of a particular item. Every dichotomous key has a recognizable starting point. Two choices are always provided at every level. These choices contain descriptions of key characteristics of an organism. The paired statements or choices consider the similarities and differences between items. Physical traits are best observed for easier identification of objects. After choosing the statement that best matches the object, a user proceeds to another pair of statements until the name of the item is identified."

If a genus name lacks a link, the page for that genus is still under construction. Cricket classifications Taxonomists agree that crickets are a monophyletic group, that is, they constitute all the surviving descendents of a single ancestral species. However, taxonomists disagree as to where in the taxonomic hierarchy this group belongs and how it should be subdivided. For example, Vickery and Kevan ( 1985) put crickets in the suborder Gryllodea of the order Grylloptera, whereas we along with many others put them in the superfamily Grylloidea of the suborder Ensifera, order Orthoptera. In our scheme, the initial subdivisions are families, and we recognize only two: Gryllotalpidae, the mole crickets, and Gryllidae, all other crickets.

The source document for this Digest states: Biodiversity is the variability among living organisms from all sources, including terrestrial, marine, and other aquatic ecosystems and the ecological complexes of which they are part; this includes diversity within species, between species, and of ecosystems. Biodiversity forms the foundation of the vast array of ecosystem services that critically contribute to human well-being. Biodiversity is important in human-managed as well as natural ecosystems. Decisions humans make that influence biodiversity affect the well-being of themselves and others. Biodiversity is the foundation of ecosystem services to which human well-being is intimately linked. No feature of Earth is more complex, dynamic, and varied than the layer of living organisms that occupy its surfaces and its seas, and no feature is experiencing more dramatic change at the hands of humans than this extraordinary, singularly unique feature of Earth. This layer of living organisms—the biosphere—through the collective metabolic activities of its innumerable plants, animals, and microbes physically and chemically unites the atmosphere, geosphere, and hydrosphere into one environmental system within which millions of species, including humans, have thrived. Breathable air, potable water, fertile soils, productive lands, bountiful seas, the equitable climate of Earth’s recent history, and other ecosystem services (see Box 1.1 and Key Question 2) are manifestations of the workings of life."

Tomkins on April 2, 2014PDF Download Share: Abstract Modern genomics provides the ability to screen the DNA of a wide variety of organisms to scrutinize broken metabolic pathways. This wealth of data has revealed wide-spread genetic entropy in human and other genomes. Loss of the vitamin C pathway due to deletions in the GULO (L-gulonolactone oxidase) gene has been detected in humans, apes, guinea pigs, bats, mice, rats, pigs, and passerine birds. Contrary to the popularized claims of some evolutionists and neo-creationists, patterns of GULO degradation are taxonomically restricted and fail to support macroevolution. Current research and data reported here show that multiple GULO exon losses in human, chimpanzee, and gorilla occurred independently in each taxon and are associated with regions containing a wide variety of transposable element fragments. Thus, they are another example of sequence deletions occurring via unequal recombination associated with transposable element repeats. The 28,800 base human GULO region is only 84% and 87% identical compared to chimpanzee and gorilla, respectively. The 13,000 bases preceding the human GULO gene, which corresponds to the putative area of loss for at least two major exons, is only 68% and 73% identical to chimpanzee and gorilla, respectively. These DNA similarities are inconsistent with predictions of the common ancestry paradigm. Further, gorilla is considerably more similar to human in this region than chimpanzee—negating the inferred order of phylogeny."

Organisms are grouped together into taxa (singular: taxon) and these groups are given a taxonomic rank; groups of a given rank can be aggregated to form a super-group of higher rank, thus creating a taxonomic hierarchy. The principal ranks in modern use are domain, kingdom, phylum (division is sometimes used in botany in place of phylum), class, order, family, genus and species. The Swedish botanist Carl Linnaeus is regarded as the father of taxonomy, as he developed a system known as Linnaean taxonomy for categorization of organisms and binomial nomenclature for naming organisms. With the advent of such fields of study as phylogenetics, cladistics, and systematics, the Linnaean system has progressed to a system of modern biological classification based on the evolutionary relationships between organisms, both living and extinct."

Some of the best known huckleberries are native to the eastern and southeastern United States and belong to four species found in the genus Gaylussacia. This genus is not found in the western United States. Western huckleberries belong to the genus Vaccinium. Their flowers and fruits resemble domestic highbush and lowbush blueberries, which are also Vaccinium species. Western huckleberries, however, are in a different taxonomic section ( Myrtillus) than highbush and lowbush blueberries ( Cyanococcus ). The primary difference is that huckleberries produce single berries in the axils of leaves on new shoots. Highbush and lowbush blueberries develop clusters of berries on one-year-old wood, producing greater yields than huckleberries. Both diploids (2n=24) and tetraploids (2n=48) are found in section Myrtillus."

Amniotes evolved during the late Paleozoic era. The characteristic that sets amniotes apart from other tetrapods is that amniotes lay eggs that are well-adapted to survive in a terrestrial environment. The amniotic egg generally consists of four membranes: the amnion, the allantois, the chorion, and the yolk sac. The amnion encloses the embryo in a fluid that serves as a cushion and provides an aqueous environment in which it can grow. The allantois is a sac that holds metabolic wastes. The chorion encloses the entire contents of the egg and together with the allantois helps the embryo breath by providing oxygen and disposing of carbon dioxide. The yolk sac, in some amniotes, holds a nutrient-rich fluid (called the yolk) that the embryo consumes as it grows (in placental mammals and marsupials, the yolk sac only stores nutrients temporarily and contains no yolk). The Eggs of Amniotes The eggs of many amniotes (such as birds and most reptiles) are enclosed in a hard, mineralized shell. In many lizards, this shell is flexible."

The word ‘grain’ in Latin (granum) means ‘seed’, so “ whole grain simply means whole seed “ The 2006 document defines whole grains as “cereal grains that consist of the intact, ground, cracked or flaked fruit of the grains whose principal components - the starchy endosperm, germ and bran - are present in the same relative proportions as they exist in the intact grain.” Such grains may include amaranth, barley, buckwheat, bulgur, corn (including popcorn), millet, quinoa, rice, rye, oats, sorghum, teff, triticale, wheat, and wild rice, says the FDA. But pearled barley, soybeans, chickpeas and other products derived from legumes, oilseeds and roots should not be considered whole grains. It is in the public interest to promote consumption of whole seeds…all whole seeds… versus refined or otherwise fractionated seeds However, Dan Best, president of consultancy Best Vantage Inc - which has extensive experience of working with oilseeds, pulses and legumes - argues that this definition should be expanded to include whole-seed beans, peas, lentils, chickpeas, flaxseed, mustard, sesame, walnut, pine nut, almonds and other whole seeds."

Note: The North American Red Fox, also known as the Silver Fox, was long treated as a separate species ( Vulpes fulva) from the European Red Fox, to which the epithet Vulpes vulpes was formerly restricted. But most authorities have lumped it with V. vulpes in recent years. A 2012 BBC article, pictures and describes a black, fox-like animal captured in the UK. According to the story, biologist “ Helen Mc Robie, from Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge, said genetic mutations suggested it may be a hybrid between a silver fox and raccoon dog” (Silver fox is a synonym of red fox; see note above). The story goes on to say the following: Mrs Mc Robie, a biomedical scientist, and technician Angela Wheatley, carried out a number of genetic tests when the animal was brought into their laboratory. “Analysis of a key pigmentation gene revealed two new mutations that have not yet been described in scientific literature,” Mrs Mc Robie said. “More surprisingly, it revealed that they were a very close match to the same gene found in the raccoon dog. ”Raccoon dogs are similar to foxes, but have shorter limbs. “They have been farmed with silver foxes in Russia and it seems that a hybridisation between the two species may possibly have occurred from a mating,” she said."

The six letter species name alpha code is derived from the first three letters of the scientific name (genus) and the first three letters of the scientific name (species). See (1) below for the rules used to create the codes. Four-letter (for English common names) and six-letter (for scientific names) species alpha codes were developed by Pyle and De Sante (2003, North American Bird-Bander 28:64-79) to reflect A. O. U. taxonomy and nomenclature (A. O. U. 1998) as modified by Supplements 42 (Auk 117:847-858, 2000) and 43 (Auk 119:897-906, 2002). The list has been updated by Pyle and De Sante to reflect changes reported by the A. O. U from 2003 through 2006. Alphabetic (“alpha”) codes, abbreviations of English or scientific bird names, have long been employed by ornithologists. They allow quicker data entry than filling out the full English or scientific name of a species and they can also serve to cross-check other recorded names or numeric data. The U. S. Bird Banding Laboratory (BBL) has long used alpha codes in banding data, and these codes have become an integral part of large ornithological programs across Canada and the United States; however, inconsistencies occur in the rules governing the alpha codes of the BBL, and their list does not include most species found exclusively in Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean. Pyle and De Sante recognized the utility of alpha-code systems, so they created two lists of alpha codes for use by North and Central American and Caribbean ornithologists. The first list contains four-letter codes, based on English names, broadly following the rules and strategies adopted by the BBL."

Photo © Johann Schumacher / Getty Images.by Laura Klappenbach Updated March 08, 2017Chordates (Chordata) are a group of animals that includes vertebrates, tunicates, lancelets. Of these, the vertebrates—lampreys, mammals, birds, amphibians, reptiles, and fishes—are the most familiar and are the group to which humans belong. Chordates are bilaterally symmetrical, which means there is a line of symmetry that divides their body into halves that are roughly mirror images of each other. Bilateral symmetry is not unique to chordates. Other groups of animals—arthropods, segmented worms, and echinoderms—exhibit bilateral symmetry (although in the case of echinoderms, they are bilaterally symmetrical only during the larval stage of their life cycle; as adults they exhibit pentaradial symmetry). All chordates have a notochord that is present during some or all of their life cycle. A notochord is a semi-flexible rod that provides structural support and serves as an anchor for the animal's large body muscles. The notochord consists of a core of semi-fluid cells enclosed in a fibrous sheath. The notochord extends the length of the animal's body."

"text": "\"STRATEGY FORMULATIONFollow City-Data.com founder on our Forum or @Lech Mazur Photo by: Sharpshot Strategy formulation is vital to the well-being of a company or organization. There are two major types of strategy: (1) corporate strategy, in which companies decide which line or lines of business to engage in; and (2) business or competitive strategy, which sets the framework for achieving success in a particular business. While business strategy often receives more attention than corporate strategy, both forms of strategy involve planning, industry/market analysis, goal setting, commitment of resources, and monitoring. IMPORTANCE OF STRATEGYThe formulation of a sound strategy facilitates a number of actions and desired results that would be difficult otherwise. A strategic plan, when communicated to all members of an organization, provides employees with a clear vision of what the purposes and objectives of the firm are. The formulation of strategy forces organizations to examine the prospect of change in the foreseeable future and to prepare for change rather than to wait passively until market forces compel it. Strategic formulation allows the firm to plan its capital budgeting. Companies have limited funds to invest and must allocate capital funds where they will be most effective and derive the highest returns on their investments. On the other hand, a firm without a clear strategic plan gives its decision makers no direction other than the maintenance of the status quo. The firm becomes purely reactive to external pressures and less effective at dealing with change."

Leaders have a vision that they share with others. It is the leader who binds the organization together with beliefs, values and knowledge and who makes it more cohesive and coherent. We can also define leadership as a process that motivates people to excel in the field in which they are working. Can leadership be taught? Many would say that leadership qualities are not inborn but can be developed gradually through education and self-study. Personally I am not so sure about this. The current assumption is that leadership can be taught. There are very many courses, seminars and books on leadership and a big demand for training to develop leadership skills."

G Eysenbach J Med Internet Res 2001;3 (2):e20doi:10.2196/jmir.3.2.e20Introduction Everybody talks about e-health these days, but few people have come up with a clear definition of this comparatively new term. Barely in use before 1999, this term now seems to serve as a general \"\"buzzword,\"\" used to characterize not only \"\"Internet medicine\"\", but also virtually everything related to computers and medicine. The term was apparently first used by industry leaders and marketing people rather than academics. They created and used this term in line with other \"\"e-words\"\" such as e-commerce, e-business, e-solutions, and so on, in an attempt to convey the promises, principles, excitement (and hype) around e-commerce (electronic commerce) to the health arena, and to give an account of the new possibilities the Internet is opening up to the area of health care. Intel, for example, referred to e-health as \"\"a concerted effort undertaken by leaders in health care and hi-tech industries to fully harness the benefits available through convergence of the Internet and health care.\"\" Because the Internet created new opportunities and challenges to the traditional health care information technology industry, the use of a new term to address these issues seemed appropriate. These \"\"new\"\" challenges for the health care information technology industry were mainly (1) the capability of consumers to interact with their systems online (B2C = \"\"business to consumer\"\"); (2) improved possibilities for institution-to-institution transmissions of data (B2B = \"\"business to business\"\"); (3) new possibilities for peer-to-peer communication of consumers (C2C = \"\"consumer to consumer\"\"). So, how can we define e-health in the academic environment? One JMIR Editorial Board member feels that the term should remain in the realm of the business and marketing sector and should be avoided in scientific medical literature and discourse."

Learning Objectives Outline the theoretical scope and basic function that represent managerial responsibilities within a company Key Takeaways Key Points Management comprises planning, organizing, staffing, leading /directing, and controlling an organization (a group of one or more people or entities) or effort for the purpose of accomplishing a goal. In for-profit work, the primary function of management is meeting the needs of various stakeholders of the organization, such as customers, debtors, and owners. In the public sector of countries that are representative democracies, voters elect politicians to public office, who then hire managers and administrators to oversee the everyday responsibilities that support those elected to office. Since an organization can be viewed as a type of system, managers provide the necessary human action, so the organizational system produces planned outcomes or goals desired by the various stakeholders. Key Termsstakeholders: Persons or organizations with a legitimate interest in a given situation, action, or enterprise which are directly affected by the organization’s actions.theoretical: Of or relating to the underlying principles or methods of a given technical skill, art, etc., as opposed to its practice.shareholder: Through owning stock, the real owner of a publicly traded business that is run by management. Overview Management is the act of engaging with an organization’s human talent and using the physical resources at a manager’s disposal to accomplish desired goals and objectives efficiently and effectively.

Customers are placing an increasing emphasis on quality and reliability, but at the same time looking for good value. Speed to market is becoming a paradigm of world class manufacturing. To respond to this increasingly dynamic and challenging environment, manufacturers are implementing lean product development (LPD) concepts to reduce design cycle time and improve product value. Lean product development is based on the integrated design of products and their manufacturing and support processes. It is not a matter of assessing manufacturability, reliability, and supportability of the product after it has been designed and making appropriate changes to the design to enhance these competitive factors. This approach extends the design cycle time, increases product development cost, and may not result in the most optimum way to produce the product. Instead, these factors must be considered from the very start of product development and designed into the product. However, as organizations have grown in size and sophistication, personnel have become geographically spread out and the organization has evolved into narrower functional specializations to master the complexity of today’s product development process."

According to Gartner research, IT and application development projects often fail to be completed on time and on budget. In many small and midsize businesses, one third of the projects exceed budgets and schedules by almost 100 percent. In one particular industry, the scenario was even worse: Gartner analyzed tech projects implemented by healthcare delivery organizations and predicted that more than 60 percent would be at least 30 percent late or 20 percent over budget. Fortunately, savvy IT leaders can help reduce the risk of cost overruns and outright failures by insisting on a thorough planning process that involves not only IT, but also any departments affected by the project. 1. Establish the scope and features before beginning work Scope creep, according to consultant and author Richard Veryard, is known by various names, depending on the project phase. Early on, it’s called “requirements creep,” when the project team is defining problems to be tackled. Perhaps most often, it’s called “feature creep,” as more “solutions,” or functions, are added to the specs."

It is striking how much confusion there is between strategy, implementation, and execution. Is “strategy” a matter of making choices about where we want to go, where we play and how we win, of setting goals and actions, about how we create and capture economic value over time? Does it include creating solutions to unforeseen problems and running with unexpected opportunities? Is “getting things done” what we mean by implementation or execution? Do you “execute” or “implement” a strategy? And can you separate these from strategy formation? For strategy wonks like me, thinking about the definitions of these ideas provides endless fascination. For many business leaders, however, I find that the semantics matter a lot less. And that’s too bad because the semantics should matter. There are meaningful distinctions between strategy, implementation, and execution that are helpful to running a company or business in the real world."

Engaging the Hearts and Minds of Nurses with a Patient-Centered Practice Model^ m d Deborah C. Small, RN, MSN, NE-BCRobert M. Small, MBAAbstract Like every healthcare system today, the Cleveland Clinic health system is a combination of medical hospitals, institutes, and services in which the implementation of uniform care methodologies faces significant barriers. The guiding principle of the Cleveland Clinic, ‘Patients First,’ focuses on the principle of patient- and family-centered care (PFCC) but deliberately lacks details due to the wide scope of care delivered by the organization. The Stanley Shalom Zielony Institute of Nursing Excellence (the Nursing Institute) at the Cleveland Clinic was charged with standardizing nursing practice across a system with 11,000 registered nurses and 800 advanced practice nurses. The challenge involved providing firm direction on delivering PFCC that was appropriate for all clinical disciplines and could be implemented quickly across existing practices and technologies. Successful implementation required full engagement in the concept of PFCC by what the Institute for Healthcare Improvement has termed the ‘hearts and minds’ of nurses. To achieve these ends, development of a systemwide nursing practice model was initiated. In this article the authors identify the essence of PFCC, consider barriers to PFCC, review their process of developing PFCC, and describe how the Cleveland Clinic health system has implemented a PFCC nursing practice model. In doing so the authors explore how the concept of ‘Passion for Nursing’ was used to stimulate nurse engagement in PFCC. Citation: Small, D., Small, R., (May 31, 2011) \"\"Patients First!"

With this approach, the architecture of a system, even a large one, evolves over time while simultaneously supporting the needs of current users. This avoids Big Up-Front Design (BUFD) and the starting and stopping of stage-gated methods. Agile Release Train a long-lived team of Agile Teams, typically consisting of 50 - 125 individuals. The ART aligns teams to a common mission and provides for a regular cadence for planning, development, and retrospective. Trains provide continuous product development flow and each train has the dedicated resources necessary to continuously define, build, and test valuable and evaluate- able capabilities every two weeks. Agile Teams a cross-functional group of five to nine individuals who have the ability and authority to define, build, and test solution value—all in a short-iteration timebox. The team includes the individuals necessary to successfully deliver this value, supported by specialists where applicable. Architectural Runway provides the necessary technical basis for developing business initiatives and implementing new features and capabilities. An architectural runway exists when the enterprise's platforms have sufficient existing technological infrastructure to support the implementation of the highest-priority, near-term features without excessive, delay-inducing redesign."

She has more than 16 years of leadership and management experience and provides acute care operational assessments, process redesign, and financial consulting. She is experienced in applying profiling tools, establishing collaborative relationships between nurses and physicians, and eliminating barriers between nurses and financial professionals. The healthcare workplace is comparable to what a person sees when looking through a kaleidoscope: as the moments pass, an endless variety of patterns emerges. Undesirable patterns that have materialized include the widely publicized shortage of nurses in the workforce and the high rates of turnover among nurses. Healthcare organizations increasingly depend on recruitment and retention of nurse-managers to reverse these trends. Critical care nurses become leaders through a variety of routes, many of which do not include formal managerial training or education. To produce positive results, critical care leaders need effective strategies to manage departmental operations and inspire staff. One strategy used by chief nursing officers, professional nursing associations, and employers is to design and implement formalized critical care leadership and managerial training programs that are evidence based and results oriented. In “Leadership Research in Business and Health Care,” Vance and Larson 1 report an underuse of evidence-based research in the development of healthcare leaders."

A Security Operations Center ( SOC) is an organized and highly skilled team whose mission is to continuously monitor and improve an organization’s security posture while preventing, detecting, analyzing, and responding to cyber security incidents with the aid of both technology and well-defined processes and procedures. The mission As the SOC strategy must be both clearly defined and business-specific, said strategy is strictly dependent on executive levels’ support and sponsorship, otherwise, the SOC itself will not be able to work properly, and it will not be perceived as a critical asset by the rest of the organization. The SOC must aim at addressing the company’s needs, and a strong executive sponsorship is necessary for it to be successful. The environment The establishment of a SOC requires careful planning; its physical security must be taken into consideration; also the layout of the operations center has to be carefully designed to be both comfortable and functional – lighting and acoustics issues must not be overlooked. A SOC is expected to contain several areas, including an operational room, a “war room” and the supervisors’ offices."

It is closely tied to the cardiovascular system and helps maintain the fluid balance between the blood vessels and the tissues. The lymphatic system plays a large role in immunity. This important system also absorbs digested fats from the small intestine. The components of the lymphatic system are divided into two groups the primary organs and the secondary organs. Primary Organs: The thymus gland and the bone marrow are primary organs. They regulate the production and differentiation of lymphocytes the cells that make up the immune system. Secondary Organs: The secondary organs include the lymphatic vessels, lymph nodes, aggregated lymphoid tissue, and spleen. These secondary organs are involved, to some extent, in all three lymphatic functions. Primary organs Thymus The mammalian thymus has two lobes and is situated slightly above the heart and ventral to (below) the trachea."

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

Delves, Ph D, Professor of Immunology, Division of Infection & Immunity, Faculty of Medical Sciences, University College London, London, UKGet the Quick Facts For this topic NOTE: This is the Consumer Version. DOCTORS: Click here for the Professional Version Overview of the Immune System The immune system is designed to defend the body against foreign or dangerous invaders. Such invaders include Microorganisms (commonly called germs, such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi)Parasites (such as worms)Cancer cells Transplanted organs and tissues To defend the body against these invaders, the immune system must be able to distinguish between What belongs in the body (self)What does not (nonself or foreign)Antigens are any substances that are identified as nonself—particularly if they are perceived as dangerous (for example, if they can cause disease)—and that can stimulate an immune response in the body. Antigens may be contained within or on bacteria, viruses, other microorganisms, parasites, or cancer cells. Antigens may also exist on their own—for example, as food molecules or pollen. A normal immune response consists of the following: Recognizing a potentially harmful foreign antigen Activating and mobilizing forces to defend against it Attacking it Controlling and ending the attack If the immune system malfunctions and mistakes self for nonself, it may attack the body’s own tissues, causing an autoimmune disorder, such as rheumatoid arthritis, Hashimoto thyroiditis, or systemic lupus erythematosus (lupus). Disorders of the immune system occur when The body generates an immune response against itself ( an autoimmune disorder ). The body cannot generate appropriate immune responses against invading microorganisms (an immunodeficiency disorder ). The body generates an excessive immune response to often harmless foreign antigens and damages normal tissues (an allergic reaction ).

Follow 7 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Lymph nodes, also incorrectly called \"\"Lymph glands\"\" (they do not secrete anything and are therefore not glands), are components of the lymphatic system. Lymph nodes act as filters, with an internal honeycomb of connective tissue filled with lymphocytes that collect and destroy bacteria and viruses. When the body is fighting an infection, these lymphocytes multiply rapidly and produce a characteristic swelling of the lymph nodes. Humans have approximately 500-600 lymph nodes.

Lymph consists of all the fluid that leaks out of your blood vessels (your blood pressure lets some of the plasma - not actual blood cells - leak through your capillaries), plus all the white cells that were sent out fighting infecions and inflammation in your tissues. Your lymph nodes are basically lymphocyte (one of the white blood cells types) manufacturing centers. They also analyze all the white blood cells that collect in the lymph, and when they see signs of infection or inflammation, they rev up their manufacturing process and produce a whole bunch of lymphocytes that will go target that particular infection. This increased production causes them to swell and become tender.

Lymphocytes and the Immune Response The immune response is a highly selective reaction to potentially harmful foreign macromolecular substances termed antigens . The aim of the response is the recognition and removal of such antigens from the body. There are principally two types of lymphocytes involved in the immune response: T-lymphocytes, which differentiate in the thymus, and B-lymphocytes, which differentiate in the bone marrow . The T-cells are primarily responsible for the cell-mediated response, in which cytotoxic T-cells recognize and destroy cells with foreign surface antigens. By contrast, the B-cells are primarily responsible for carrying out the humoral antibody response, in which the B-cell-derived plasma cells secrete immunoglobulins (antibodies) that bind to specific antigens and facilitate their removal. A. The humoral response Immunoglobulin molecules are glycoproteins made up of four chains, two heavy chains and two light chains. Each immunoglobulin molecule is Y-shaped, with the two light chains associated with the “arms” of the Y. The arms of the Y are the portions of the molecule that selectively bind to antigen. They are therefore designated the Fab fragments (for fragment, antigen-binding). The “tail” of the Y is designated the Fc fragment (for fragment, crystallizable), which binds to the surface of cells like macrophages.—The five antibody classes Ig M is produced first in response to antigen or during the primary immune response; short-lived antibody Ig G is produced later in response to antigen or during the secondary immune response; long-lasting antibody Ig A is found in bodily secretions; responsible for mucosal immunity Ig E is found on surfaces of mast cells and basophils; responsible for allergic reactions Ig D is found on the surface of B-cells; little present in serum A given B-cell is committed to producing one kind of antibody that is specific for a given antigen ."

Soft tissue sarcomas come in many forms:angiosarcoma (blood vesselsfibrosarcoma (connective tissue)gastrointestinal stromal tumor (digestive system)Kaposi's sarcoma (skin)liposarcoma (fat)leiomyosarcoma (smooth muscle)malignant fibrous histiocytoma (connective tissue)neurofibrosarcoma (nerves)rhabdomyosarcoma (skeletal muscle) andsynovial sarcoma (often near joints, but can occur anywhere). Soft tissue sarcomas account for only 1% of all cancers in adults. There are approximately 7000 new cases a year in the United States. The most common sites of origin are the extremities (legs and arms); however, sarcomas can arise in any part of the body - including the abdomen, pelvis and head/neck region. Bone sarcomas are rare types of cancer that mainly affect children and young adults. There are several types of bone sarcomas that typically affect different parts of bones and joints. The cancerous tumors can grow in any bone in the body; however, most occur in the arms or legs. The most common bone sarcomas include: Osteosarcoma (tumor usually develops in the ends of long bones where new bone tissue forms),Ewing's sarcoma (tumor usually develops in the middle of large bones such as pelvis, thigh, upper arms and ribs), and Chondrosaroma (found mainly in adults, this type of tumor forms in the cartilage that cushions joints)."

An example is the epidermis, the outermost layer of the skin. There are three principal shapes of epithelial cell: squamous, columnar, and cuboidal. These can be arranged in a single layer of cells as simple epithelium, either squamous, columnar, cuboidal, pseudo-stratified columnar or in layers of two or more cells deep as stratified (layered), either squamous, columnar or cuboidal. All glands are made up of epithelial cells. Functions of epithelial cells include secretion, selective absorption, protection, transcellular transport, and sensing.

Many intrinsic and extrinsic factors influence the development of cancer. Intrinsic or host factors include age, sex, genetic constitution, immune system function, metabolism, hormone levels, and nutritional status. Extrinsic factors include substances eaten, drunk, or smoked; workplace and environmental (air, water, and soil) exposures; natural and medical radiation exposure; sexual behavior; and elements of lifestyle such as social and cultural environment, personal behavior, and habits. Intrinsic and extrinsic factors can interact with one another to influence the development of cancer. Because of the physical and emotional suffering associated with cancer and the immense cost to the nation in lost production and income and medical and research expenditures, considerable effort continues to be exerted to understand this complex disease so that strategies can be developed to decrease or prevent its occurrence. Current regulatory guidelines have been crafted to reduce the probability of developing cancer by lowering human exposure to agents identified as potentially capable of causing cancer. During the past 40 years of cancer research, much information has been generated indicating that cancer is a multistep, progressive disease. Support for this contention is derived from research on epidemiology and population genetics, morphological and clinical study of neoplasms, as well as experimental investigations in animals. Structural studies of biopsy and autopsy tissue samples from humans and animals, particularly experimental animal models of carcinogenesis, have provided important information about this multistep process at the phenotypic level."

Melanoblasts are neuroectodermal (embryonic ectoderm that gives rise to nervous tissue) in origin, and during fetal development they migrate to the skin and hair bulbs. Mature pigment producing cells are referred to as melanocytes. They are found in many parts of the body where there is a pigment like the hair, skin and eye. These cells are found between the basal keratinocytes (this is the major constituent of epidermis. It comprises 95% of the cells found there. Keratinocytes found in the stratum basale are sometimes called “basal cells” or “basal keratinocytes”) the epidermis and the hair bulb. Melanin produced by melanocytes, is stored within melanosomes and is transferred to keratinocytes by a process known as cytocrinia (the same process by which melanin is transferred, in a normal epidermis, from melanocytes to keratocytes). These malanosomes gather within the cytoplasm of keratinocytes and protect the skin from the harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation."

The clavicle, or collarbone as most of us refer to it, is the bone that connects the arm to the rib cage. It helps to transmit force from the arm to the torso as well as in stabilizing the arm when it moves. The collarbone also plays a role in protecting the internal organs in the chest cavity just like the ribs and sternum. Just behind the clavicle lies the apex of the lungs. As with any part of the body, collarbone pain is usually an indication of tissue injury or damage. There are various mechanisms by which this occurs and some can be serious while others less so. Pain is often associated with inflammation and even though bone is among the hardest structures in the human body, it is not immune from injury, diseases and inflammation. Sometimes the pain that is felt as collarbone pain is not from the bone itself but rather from the surrounding structures or organs. It is also important to note that collarbone pain may not be related to the clavicle or soft tissue around it."

This includes muscle, fat, blood vessels, nerves, tendons and the lining of your joints. More than 50 subtypes of soft tissue sarcoma exist. Some types are more likely to affect children, while others affect mostly adults. These tumors can be difficult to diagnose because they may be mistaken for many other types of growths. Soft tissue sarcoma can occur anywhere in your body, but the most common types occur in the arms and legs, and in the abdomen. Surgical removal is the most common treatment, although radiation and chemotherapy also may be recommended — depending on the size, type, location and aggressiveness of the tumor. Types Angiosarcoma Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans Epithelioid sarcoma Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST)Kaposi's sarcoma Leiomyosarcoma Liposarcoma Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors Myxofibrosarcoma Pleomorphic sarcoma Rhabdomyosarcoma Solitary fibrous tumor Synovial sarcoma Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma Symptoms A soft tissue sarcoma may not cause any signs and symptoms in its early stages. As the tumor grows, it may cause: A noticeable lump or swelling Pain, if a tumor presses on nerves or muscles When to see a doctor Make an appointment with your doctor if you have: A lump that is increasing in size or becomes painful A lump of any size that's located deep within a muscle Recurrence of a lump that's been removed Request an Appointment at Mayo Clinic Causes In most cases, it's not clear what causes soft tissue sarcoma. In general, cancer occurs when cells develop errors (mutations) in their DNA."

An example is the epidermis, the outermost layer of the skin. There are three principal shapes of epithelial cell: squamous, columnar, and cuboidal. These can be arranged in a single layer of cells as simple epithelium, either squamous, columnar, cuboidal, pseudo-stratified columnar or in layers of two or more cells deep as stratified (layered), either squamous, columnar or cuboidal. All glands are made up of epithelial cells. Functions of epithelial cells include secretion, selective absorption, protection, transcellular transport, and sensing.

Please check the synonyms listing to find the alternate name (s) and disorder subdivision (s) covered by this report. Synonyms GISTDisorder Subdivisions None General Discussion Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) belong to a group of cancers known as soft tissue sarcomas. The number of new cases in the United States annually has been estimated to be 5,000-6,000. Tumors usually arise from the intestinal tract with the most common site being the stomach, followed by the small intestine, and then the colon /rectum with rare cases arising in the esophagus. There are also tumors that appear to arise in the membranous tissue lining the wall of the stomach (peritoneum) or in a fold of such membranous tissue (the omentum). There are also case reports of tumors arising in the appendix and/or pancreas. These tumors most commonly present with abdominal pain, bleeding or signs of intestinal obstruction. They spread most commonly to sites within the abdominal cavity and to the liver, although there are rare cases of spread to the lungs and bone. Some GISTs are noncancerous (benign) and do not spread (indolent); others are aggressive with extensive local invasion as well as distant metastases."

Sarcoma is an uncommon and often malignant tumor that arises from the connective tissues of the body. The cells in the connective tissue are classified as mesodermal or mesenchymal. The connective tissue is responsible for surrounding, connecting and providing support to the structures of the body. When the term sarcoma appears in the title of a disease, it means the tumor is malignant or pertaining to \"\"cancer\"\". Sarcomas can be diagnosed and classified as bone or soft tissue tumors. There are many types of soft tissue tumors, and not all of them are cancerous. Muscle, fat, nerves, blood vessels, tendons, cartilage, and the synovial tissue lining the joints are all considered soft tissues and are at risk of developing a sarcoma. Sarcomas can also appear in the mesenchymal cells of bones."

As opposed to the Endocrine system the Nervous system has a more or less instant effect on the body via a complex network of nerves and control centres. The Central Nervous System (CNS) includes the brain and spinal cord, while Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) includes nerves connected to the spinal cord. The nervous system can be further divided into sub-systems, all of which are composed of neurons and connective tissue: About Neurons Neurons are specialised cells of the nervous system, they vary greatly in appearance and length, but contain a similar structure: Axons are long nerve processes which carry nerve impulses from the Soma to other neurons, they vary in length but can become almost as long as half of the human body. The soma (body) of the neuron contains the nucleus which acts as the cell's control centre, these contain many small neurofibrils which project from the nucleus into the dendrites. Dendrites are short, thick processes which branch out of the soma in a tree like manor. They conduct nerve impulses to the soma. The three categories of neurons: Afferent (Sensory) Neurons have the dendrites connected to receptors such as the eyes, ears etc. These receptors change the information they receive into electrical impulses that are transmitted to other neurons."

As a result, survival following treatment for sarcoma has improved tremendously. Seattle Cancer Care Alliance (SCCA) offers comprehensive treatment from a team of experts who specialize in soft tissue sarcomas and bone cancers. What is sarcoma? Sarcoma is cancer that develops when cells in connective tissues begin to grow abnormally. Cancer cells do not respond to regular cell growth, division and death signals like healthy cells do. They also don’t organize normally. Instead they grow into a tumor, which may invade surrounding layers of tissue and possibly spread to other organs. Sarcoma can begin in bones, cartilage, muscles, tendons, fibrous tissues, veins, arteries, nerves, skin and fatty tissues. About half of sarcomas occur in the arms or legs."

"text": "Epithelial tissue, also called epithelium, is one of the four main types of tissue found in animals, including humans. It completely covers, or lines, all external body surfaces as well as nearly all internal body surfaces. Several internal organs, such as the liver, kidneys, and lungs as well as other internal structures, like some glands, are primarily made up of epithelial tissue. Epithelial tissue provides both a protective barrier from the environment for other tissues and organs but also acts as an interface with the outside world. Epithelial cells are fairly diverse and are responsible for many functions, including protection, secretion, certain types of absorption, and for some types of sensory input. The most familiar type of epithelial tissue is made up of a special type of epithelial cell and is called the epidermis, or the skin. The epidermis protects other body tissues from damage from a hostile or dangerous environment and provides a protective barrier against many parasites and harmful microorganisms. Epithelial skin tissue is very versatile as well. Sweat glands in this tissue help to regulate body temperature, and nerve endings in epithelial tissues are part of the sensory system. It also heals rapidly after sustaining damage, especially the epidermis."

In this review, a general description of the wound healing process is provided focusing on collagen's unique role. The mode of action (Mo A) of collagen-based dressings is also addressed. Due to a number of potential stimuli (local tissue ischemia, bioburden, necrotic tissue, repeated trauma, etc. ), wounds can stall in the inflammatory phase contributing to the chronicity of the wound. One key component of chronic wounds is an elevated level of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). At elevated levels, MMPs not only degrade nonviable collagen but also viable collagen. In addition, fibroblasts in a chronic wound may not secrete tissue inhibitors of MMPs (TIMPs) at an adequate level to control the activity of MMPs. These events prevent the formation of the scaffold needed for cell migration and ultimately prevent the formation of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and granulation tissue."

Every cell is specialised to perform its function as best as possible. There are many differences between different cells specialised for different functions. Cells may have different shapes, different contents or different numbers of an organelle. In order for a cell to become specialised, a process called Differentiation occurs, where unspecialised cells (called Stem Cells) produce cells with specialised structures. All multicellular organisms contain some form of Stem Cells. These are the cells that divide to replace damaged or old tissue, or new cells for growth. In plants, Stem Cells are found in Meristematic Tissue. New cells are continuously being produced since the plant continues to grow throughout its lifetime. In humans, early embryos consist of Stem Cells that can produce any type of cell."

"text": "Home > STRUCTURE AND FUNCTIONS > Normal human skin structure > Epidermis > Merkel cell Merkel cell Tuesday 25 January 2011Summary Merkel cell were first identified by German anatomist Friedrich Sigmund Merkel in 1875. Merkel cells are epidermal cells localised in the basal layer of the epidermis and the epithelial sheath of hair follicles. The vast majority of Merkel cells are intimately associated with a nerve terminal but some are not. Whether Merkel cells originate from embryonic epidermal or neural crest progenitors has been a matter of intense controversy but recent data demonstrate an epidermal origin of mammalian Merkel cells. Merkel cells are sensory receptor cells, that transmit signals through synaptic contacts with somatosensory neurons. Merkel cell-neurite complex are among the most sensitive touch receptors mediating one form of light touch important for tactile two-point discrimination and for detection of shapes, curvature and textures. The Merkel cells that are without contact to nerve terminals form part of the diffuse neuroendocrine system involved with modulation of peripheral neural responses. It is these cells, rather than those acting as mechanoreceptors, that are believed to be at the origin of a highly malignant skin cancer called Merkel cell carcinoma. Table of contents1. Distribution and localisation of Merkel cells2."

Useful figures4.1,2,3, the 11 organ system figures 4.10 skin and 4.12 components of a negative feedback control.1. The function of the body dictates its structure. A. The human body is programmed to:1) Maintain internal operating conditions (temperature, salinity, p H ) within some tolerable range. ( Homeostasis)2) Locate and acquire nutrients and dispose of waste (eat and poop)3) Protect itself against injury or attack from accidents, viruses, bacteria, and other agents4) Reproduce and provide for the health and safety of our offspring during early development5) Laugh at bad jokes B. Our body is the sum of it’s smaller parts. The following is a list of the 4 levels of organization in we humans1) Tissues (The 4 t ypes are- epithelial, connective , muscle, nervous) are an aggregation of cells and extracellular substances functioning for a specialized activity.2) Various types of tissues can combine to form functional units called organs, ( like th heart, kidneys and brain)3) Organs may interact to form organ systems such as the digestive system, where multiple organs work in concert to perform a single function, like digestion.4) From molecules to cells to tissues to organs to organ systems to a body, Each part of the body has properties that depend on its subunits. C. The structure that we see depends a lot on the function. Just like a racecar is sleek and sporty and looks like it is designed for speed so to the parts of our body share a form that is dictated by their function. List of tissues and their subtypes Epithelial: Membranous, Glandular Nervou s Conductive, supportive Muscle Cardiac, skeletal, smooth Connective Proper, blood, bone, cartilage We will now cover the four types of tissues that make up the human body1. E pithelial tissue t o p A. Epithelial tissue is commonly called epithelium1) Cells of the epithelium are linked tightly together: there may be one or more layers2) One surface is free and unattached (facing the outside of the body) and the other adheres to a structure called the basement membrane: specialized junctions form links between epithelial cells3) The 4 types of epithelium are named according to their shapesa) Simple epithelium is a single layer of cells functioning as a lining for body cavities, ducts, and tubesb) Squamous epithelium consists of flattened cells, examples are found in the lining of the blood vesselsc) Cuboidal epithelium has cube shaped cells,: examples are found in glands that secrete substancesd) C olumnar epithelium has elongated cells: examples are found in the intestine4) Stratified epithelium has many layers--as in the human skin5) Pseudostratified epithelium is a single layer of cells that looks like a double layer, most of the cells are ciliated: examples are found in the respiratory passages and reproductive tracts6) Glandular epitheliuma) Glands are secretory structures derived from epithelium in which goblet cells (mucus producing) are embeddedb) Glands are classified according to how their products reach the site where they are used (1) Exocrine glands often secrete their product through ducts to a free surfaces: they secrete mucus, saliva, earwax, milk, oil and digestive enzymes (a) Simple exocrine glands have only a few branches (b) Compound glands have many branches (c) Apocrine glands (e.g. mammary) include bits of gland cells in their secretions (d) Holocrine glands (e.g. oil) whole cells are released which may later release the secretions inside the duct (e) Merocrine glands (e.g. salivary) do not include cell elements in their secretions.

Rate This Page More Sponsors Gas Turbine Power Plants Gas Turbine Working Principle Gas turbine engines derive their power from burning fuel in a combustion chamber and using the fast flowing combustion gases to drive a turbine in much the same way as the high pressure steam drives a steam turbine. One major difference however is that the gas turbine has a second turbine acting as an air compressor mounted on the same shaft. The air turbine (compressor) draws in air, compresses it and feeds it at high pressure into the combustion chamber increasing the intensity of the burning flame. It is a positive feedback mechanism. As the gas turbine speeds up, it also causes the compressor to speed up forcing more air through the combustion chamber which in turn increases the burn rate of the fuel sending more high pressure hot gases into the gas turbine increasing its speed even more."

Attractive aspects of ballooning include the exceptional quiet (except when the propane burners are firing), the lack of a feeling of movement, and the bird's-eye view. Since the balloon moves with the direction of the winds, the passengers feel absolutely no wind, except for brief periods during the flight when the balloon climbs or descends into air currents of different direction or speed.

Treatment alone won't protect against re-injury. If you want to maintain the healing you've done and you want to heal completely, you need to rest your shoulder and do what you can to heal quickly. Re-injury takes place whenever you put even a small load on your arm or attempt to stretch the newly healed and still fragile shoulder tissue.

In such countries raw milk is replaced partly or fully by milk powder as raw material. Recombination is an alternative method of supplying a product that closely resembles fresh dairy milk to markets where the genuine article is not available. The manufacture of recombined milk and milk products has been well established in many countries around the world, and a variety of processes and equipment have been developed for this purpose. The principles of the processes are much the same. The initial applications were fluid milk, but this was followed by production of recombined evaporated milk and sweetened condensed milk. Today recombination also includes yoghurt, butter and cheese. The processes have been developed over the years from simple batch operations to sophisticated systems with high capacities. The main processes in the basic reconstitution and recombining operations are: Raw material handling Weighing and mixing Filtration, homogenization and heat treatment Definitions The following definitions are given as a guide to clarify certain expressions used in the industry. Reconstituted milk is the liquid milk obtained by adding water to skim milk powder (SMP), whole milk powder (WMP) or their mix."

"text": "Street Rodder Chassis & Suspension Different Ways To Cool An Engine- Keeping Your Cool Written by Ron Ceridono on June 1, 2009View All 6 Photos We Talk To Experts On The Subject Over the years one of the hottest topics (excuse the pun) in street rodding has been engine-operating temperature. Take an old car with a relatively small radiator, stuff in a big engine, cover it with a smooth hood, add A/C then go cruise around a fairgrounds and the results are often an automotive version of Old Faithful. Then there are those cars that cool fine when cruising but get hot on the highway, and we all know how annoying it is to drive at speed with one eye on the temperature gauge. Regardless of when and where it happens, there are consequences to overheating an engine. The first sign is usually pinging and detonation or running on after the ignition is shut off. In severe cases the abnormal combustion that takes place in a hot engine under a load can blow holes in pistons, and damage rings and rod bearings. Overheating can cause pistons to scuff or even seize, exhaust valves may stick in their guides, and warped heads and blown head gaskets are common catastrophes. On the other hand, running an engine too cool has its own set of problems; among them, reduced performance and corrosive condensation collecting internally. To look at engine operating temperatures from a technical standpoint we decided to pose a series of questions to experts in their particular fields–Bill Mitchell of World Products, manufacturer and supplier of blocks, heads, and complete engines; Scott Leon and Neal Matheson, both former GM proving ground technicians specializing in hot weather performance and reliability; Ed Newton of Amsoil, one of the most established names in synthetic lubricants; and Jeff Cannul of Stewart Components, manufacturers of high-performance water pumps. All took time from their schedules to respond–here’s what they had to say: Bill Mitchell SR: How is the coolant path through an engine determined?"

"text": "\"Condensing stack economizer Description of a Sofame Condensing Stack Economizer The PERCOTHERM is a \"\"DIRECT-CONTACT\"\", condensing stack economizer which recuperates the residual heat contained in a boiler's flue gas and transfers this heat to a cold water stream. Hot water is produced at temperatures as high as 140°F (60°C). Operation of a Condensing Stack Economizer Cold water enters the unit at the top and is then uniformly distributed over the upper surface of a packing of stainless steel nodules which constitutes the heat transfer zone. The water percolates down through the packing where it comes in \"\"direct-contact\"\" with the rising, hot products of combustion. Both the sensible and latent heat contained in the gases are transferred to the water. The products of combustion are generated by existing boilers. The heated water collecting at the bottom of the unit is then pumped directly to the process, or across a plate and frame heat exchanger to transfer its energy to a process fluid. Applications of a Condensing Stack Economizer Fresh air heating (via glycol loop), pre-heating of domestic water or boiler make-up water, and the heating of process water. Capacities of a Condensing Stack Economizer The PERCOTHERM is available for connected boiler capacities varying from 100 HP to 100,000 lb steam/hr (1000 to 30,000 k W).

"text": "\"BU-407: Charging Nickel-cadmium Learn how to maximize charge, minimize heat and reduce memory. Nickel-based batteries are more complex to charge than Li-ion and lead acid. Lithium- and lead-based systems are charged with a regulated current to bring the voltage to a set limit after which the battery saturates until fully charged. This method is called constant current constant voltage (CC/CV). Nickel-based batteries also charge with constant current but the voltage is allowed to rise freely. Full charge detection occurs by observing a slight voltage drop after a steady rise. This may be connected with plateau timing and temperature rise over time (more below). Battery manufacturers recommend that new batteries be slow-charged for 16–24 hours before use. A slow charge brings all cells in a battery pack to an equal charge level. This is important because each cell within the nickel-cadmium battery may have self-discharged at its own rate."

For other uses, see Fridge (disambiguation) and Freezer (disambiguation). Food in a refrigerator with its door open A side-by-side refrigerator-freezer with an icemaker A refrigerator (colloquially fridge, or fridgefreezer in the UK) is a popular household appliance that consists of a thermally insulated compartment and a heat pump (mechanical, electronic or chemical) that transfers heat from the inside of the fridge to its external environment so that the inside of the fridge is cooled to a temperature below the ambient temperature of the room. Refrigeration is an essential food storage technique in developed countries. The lower temperature lowers the reproduction rate of bacteria, so the refrigerator reduces the rate of spoilage. A refrigerator maintains a temperature a few degrees above the freezing point of water. Optimum temperature range for perishable food storage is 3 to 5 °C (37 to 41 °F). [ 1] A similar device that maintains a temperature below the freezing point of water is called a freezer. The refrigerator replaced the icebox, which had been a common household appliance for almost a century and a half."

Viperidae Ottoman viper, Vipera xanthina Scientific classification Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Class: Reptilia Order: Squamata Suborder: Serpentes Family: Viperidae Oppel, 1811Synonyms Viperae—Laurenti, 1768Viperini—Oppel, 1811Viperidae—Gray, 1825 [1]The Viperidae ( vipers) is a family of venomous snakes found in most parts of the world, excluding Antarctica, Australia, New Zealand, Madagascar, Hawaii, various other isolated islands, and north of the Arctic Circle. All have relatively long, hinged fangs that permit deep penetration and injection of venom. Four subfamilies are currently recognised. [ 2] They are also known as viperids. The name \"\"viper\"\" is derived from the Latin word vipera, - ae, also meaning viper, possibly from vivus (\"\"living\"\") and parere (\"\"to beget\"\"), referring to the trait viviparity (giving live birth) common in vipers but not in snakes at large. [ 3]Contents [ hide ]1 Description2 Geographic range3 Venom3.1 Behavior3.2 Prey tracking4 Subfamilies5 Taxonomy6 See also7 References8 Further reading9 External links Description [ edit]A rattlesnake skull, showing the long fangs used to inject venom All viperids have a pair of relatively long solenoglyphous (hollow) fangs that are used to inject venom from glands located towards the rear of the upper jaws, just behind the eyes. Each of the two fangs is at the front of the mouth on a short maxillary bone that can rotate back and forth. When not in use, the fangs fold back against the roof of the mouth and are enclosed in a membranous sheath."

"text": "Types of Snake Venom As explained in the introduction venomous snakes can be classified into three classes the snake venoms for two are explain below:1) The elapines, short front fangs (Proteroglyphs) snakes, which include the cobra, mamba, and coral snakes, their venom is neurotoxic (nerve toxins) and paralyses the respiratory centre. Animals that survive these bites seldom have any sequelae (aftereffects of the snake bite such as tissue damage).2) The two families of viperines, the true vipers (e.g., puff adder, Russell's viper, and common European adder the only venomous snake in the UK) and the pit vipers (e.g., rattlesnakes, copperhead, and fer-de-lance). Viperine snakes have long, hinged, hollow fangs (Solenoglyph); they strike, inject venom (a voluntary action), and withdraw. Many bites by vipers reportedly do not result in injection of substantial quantities of venom. Viperine venom is typically haemotoxic (blood toxins), necrotising (death of tissue), and anticoagulant (preventing the blood from clotting), although a neurotoxic component is present in the venom of some species, e.g., the Mojave rattlesnake There are approximately 20 types of toxic enzymes found in snake poisons throughout the world known to man. Although no venomous snake has all of these toxins, most snakes employ between six to twelve of these enzymes in their venom. Each of these enzymes has its own special function. Some aid in the digestive process, while others specialize in paralysing the prey. This is a list of various toxins that have been identified in snake venom: Proteolytic enzymes Phosphomonoesterase Arginine ester hydrolase Phosphodiesterase Thrombin-like enzyme Acetylcholinesterase Collagenase RNase Hyaluronidase DNase Phospholipase A2 (A) 5'-Nucleotidase Phospholipase B L-Amino acid oxidase Phospholipase C Lactate dehydrogenase Adenosine triphosphatase Enzymes Enzymes are biological (virtually always proteins) catalysts. A catalyst is a compound that increases the rate of the reaction but does not affect the yield or equilibrium of the reaction."

"text": "With Chevrolet having just blitzed the 12.9-mile Nürburgring Nordschleife in 7 minutes 16 seconds with a 2018 Camaro ZL1 1LE, we were curious to see how other U. S. models stack up at the infamous track. You’ll notice a peculiar absence of a certain manufacturer from Dearborn on this list – we’ll talk about that later. Right now, let’s see which Americans rule the ‘Ring. With the exception of the last two, all times are manufacturer confirmed.7:12.13 – 2010 Dodge Viper ACRSay what you will about the Viper ’s sledgehammer approach to performance. This time was established in 2011 and is still in the top-ten for all production cars at the Nürburgring. Currently there’s an enthusiast-backed effort to get the current Viper ACR to Germany for an official attempt at a new record, but until that happens, the 2010 edition is the reigning U. S. champion.7:16.04 – 2018 Camaro ZL1 1LEThe days of poking fun at the Camaro are over. The new ZL1 is faster than the Ferrari 488, the current-generation Porsche 911 GT3, and the bonkers Pagani Zonda F Clubsport. 650 horsepower certainly helps, but Chevy also gave the Camaro the grip and poise to actually use it.7:19.63 – 2012 Corvette ZR1When the forthcoming C7 ZR1 takes an official stab at the ‘Ring – and you know that will happen – it will likely bury the C6 ZR1's 7:19 effort. That doesn’t take away the accomplishment of this machine, which many feel was the first Corvette model to finally earn a proper place among the world’s supercar elite.7:22.68 – 2011 Corvette Z06Considering the track-focused Z06 gave up over 100 horsepower to the aforementioned ZR1, nabbing a lap time within three seconds of its supercharged big brother shows just how much time was spent fine-tuning its underpinnings. Though slower than the Viper, the Z06 was often praised for being an easier car to drive at the limit, which could be why Corvette sales regularly trounced Dodge'ssnake.7:29.6 – 2017 Camaro ZL1If you wanted to know what kind of difference the 1LE package for the new Camaro ZL1 makes, here you go."

"text": "2013-2017 SRT and Dodge Viper supercars (Viper, GTS, GT3-R)640 horsepower. 600 foot-pounds of torque. 100 pound weight reduction. The 2013 SRT Viper was designed in Auburn Hills, by Americans, and was built in Detroit, “but we did consult with our friends in Ferrari and Maserati,” according to Ralph Gilles, to get their skills in low-volume products. The 2016 Dodge Viper was rated at 0-60 in “the low 3-second range” and the quarter mile in the “11-second range,” stock. The 2014-16 Viper held the production car lap record at nine U. S. tracks. For 2014, Viper’s base price rose by $2,000, but included the Grand Touring Package and 12-speaker system, sold in 2013 for $4,495, and ordered by “nearly all buyers.” In June 2014, when SRT was folded back into Dodge, they brought the color and stripe scheme back to the original Le Mans-winning appearance. During the “three headed dog” time, as Ralph called it, they almost sold the Viper off; Sergio, though, said, “We don’t sell our own.” He mentioned the Hot Wheels car (pulling one out of his pocket), and said “As much as it’s been annoying to us, it’s been fun to watch the car being imagined on line."

"text": "This Is What Viper Venom Does To Blood356.9K Shares Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Plants and Animals You Tube Advertisment Snakes routinely make the top 10 list of things people are afraid of, so it might surprise many of you to know that about 85% of snakes worldwide are not venomous. In fact, of the 2,700 known species of snakes, only about 30 of them pose any kind of danger to humans. But, given the amount of damage that a snake bite can inflict, it’s probably not very surprising that a few are giving the others a bad reputation. Take Daboia russelii: an old world viper found throughout India and surrounding countries. Each year, Russell’s Vipers are responsible for thousands of deaths. Though there is a an effective antivenin available in the region, the widespread poverty and the fact that most bites happen in rural areas mean that not all victims are able to receive it. Immediately at the onset of the bite there is pain in the area, though blood begins to show up in the mouth within minutes and blood pressure will drop. Skin and muscle near the bite can begin to turn necrotic. For nearly a third of untreated cases, disseminated intravascular coagulation (blood clots) can occur and cause failure of the kidneys and other organs, and may ultimately result in death. Researchers are interested in collecting viper venom for the development of antivenins and also hope to use the coagulating properties to develop medication for trauma and surgical patients from bleeding out."

Here are the types of venom that each type of snake possesses and why you need to be concerned about a bite. First off – if you have been bitten by any snake in Thailand – go to a hospital before doing anything. Thailand Snake Venom Types: Hemotoxic (Haemotoxic, Hematotoxic) Venom This type of snake venom destroys red blood cells – causes hemolysis, disrupts blood clotting, and also attacks other types of cells and tissues – causing profound tissue damage and often, organ failure. These types of bites are very painful. Effects may not begin for hours after a bite. Permanent tissue damage almost always results. A person bitten by a snake with hemotoxic venom may bleed from orifices like nose, eyes, and also gums and the brain. If you are bitten on the toe, finger, or some extremity you can usually expect to lose part or all of that body part. Malayan Pit Viper ( Calloselasma rhodostoma) venom has properties of its venom that attacks blood and live tissue."

Shorter Common Adders are venomous snakes, small but true Vipers , very common throughout much of Europe, Vipera berus is the only poisonous snake found in the United Kingdom. Common Adders are known to have short tempers and may strike without warning when startled or handled. Skin coloring varies with males of the Adder species light shades of brown to steel grey with female Adders more colorful in tones of yellow, browns and even a brick red. Some adult specimens are completely black, while most have the striking dark zigzag stripe pattern running the length of their bodies. Sides or flanks typically have a line of oval spots positioned almost centered underneath the zigzag pattern and also running the full length of their bodies making this snake a very attractive one. Another identifying feature on the Common Adder is a very distinct \"\"X\"\" or \"\"V\"\" black shaped marking prominently place on its head. Common Adder Pictures of Common Adders CLICK HERE TO SEE ANIMAL WEBCAMSThe Common Adder prefers wooded terrain, grassy fields, and rocky cliff slopes. Known to frequent farms and cultivated fields, this snake presents the most danger actually to people walking pets. More pets are the victims of Common Adder envenomation every year than humans. The Common Adder hibernates like a Grizzly Bear and, also many other reptiles, returning to the same den or lair year after year to winter-over this terrain."

For a lot of us, the answer is pure dumb luck, just being in the right place at the right time. But I didn’t need luck, because I had Ginny Kowalski. I grew up just a half-hour from Car and Driver headquarters. I’d always read and loved this magazine, but it never occurred to me that writing here was a real job that real people had. And then, during my senior year of high school, Mrs. Kowalski, a counselor with my school’s technical-education department, got me an internship here.

"text": "Types of Snake Venom and their Effects on Humansby Timothy Zedi | May 18, 2014 | Comments Closed | Venomous Snakes Share it!Snake venom comes in different types. Different types of venom have different effects on humans. Cytotoxic Venom destroys tissue and causes pain, swelling and eats away at the flesh. Cytotoxic bites varie in potency according to the species of snake, size of the snake and the amount of venom injected. Snakes with cytotoxic venom include most of the Adders and Vipers, some Cobra species such as the Mozambique Spitting Cobra, Black Necked Spitting Cobra and Zebra Cobra. Species whose venom is cytotoxic and can cause death include Rattle Snakes, Puff Adders, Gaboon Vipers, Saw Scaled Vipers, Russell’s Viper, Bush Master, Lance Head Vipers and many other viper species as well as the Cobra species listed above. A bite from one of these snakes will cause severe swelling and often the entire limb will swell up. Tissue damage will occur and without antivenom death may follow. There are species of Viper whose venom does not cause such severe symptoms and antivenom is not usually needed and is often not produced as the symptoms of the bite are not severe enough to warrant the time and money it takes to produce antivenom. These species include Horned Adders, Copper Heads, Night Adders, White Lipped Tree Vipers and Common Adders."

We observed thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) among some of these patients, but its contribution to severity of AKI and other morbidities remains unknown. Thus, we report a case series of TMA following hump-nosed viper bite addressing the complications and renal out comes in Sri Lanka. This was a prospective observational study carried out at the nephrology unit, Kandy in Sri Lanka from October 2010 to October 2011 and included 11 patients with AKI following hump-nosed viper bites. All eleven cases needed renal replacement therapy (RRT) with intermittent haemodialysis for a period of 1–5 weeks. Of them, 7 patients developed TMA with evidence of microangiopathic haemolytic anaemia (MAHA), thrombocytopenia and severe anaemia needing multiple blood transfusions. They needed longer duration of RRT (range 2–5 weeks); 2 patients developed chronic kidney disease and two died during acute stage. Autopsy study found thrombosis of micro-vessels. Thrombotic microangiopathy could be a causative pathology of AKI in hump-nosed viper bite carrying poor outcome. Highlights► Hump-nosed viper bite causes coagulation abnormalities and AKI in envenomation."

"text": "\"Vortex Viper PST Riflescope Review By: BGH Staff Posted on: 02/12/12Vortex optics offers a variety of optics for hunters and we have looked at some of their mid-level offerings in the past with the Diamondback series of riflescopes and binoculars. For this review we'll be stepping it up a bit and will be taking a look at the Viper PST line of rifle scopes, specifically the 4-16x50mm with EBR-1 MOA reticle. The Viper Precision Shooting Tactical (PST) line of scopes packs a lot of features that you would normally find in a tactical or long range shooting optic into a hunting scope. There are actually two versions of the 4-16x50mm, one with FFP (first focal plane) and our review model which is a SFP (second focal plane) scope. The Vortex Viper PST 4-16x50mm Scope The difference between first or second focal plane can be significant depending on how you use your scope. The Viper PST can be equipped with either an MRAD or MOA scope, both of which use equidistant hashes on the reticle to allow ranging distances to a target as well as quick, on-reticle bullet drop compensation. The big difference with an FFP scope is that the distance between hash marks does not change with power, while with a second focal plane scope the distance changes. For those that make a lot of magnification changes while using the reticle hashes for bullet drop compensation, will find the FFP easier to use. However many people will set the power and forget it, thus negating the main benefit of the FFP scope. The power ring on the SFP model is marked with both magnification and the multiplier for the reticle, making it easy to quickly figure out how power changes effective the distance between the 2 MOA hashes."

"text": "Though most people have a natural fear of snakes, most snakes in the world are either harmless to humans or very mildly venomous. Yet, the venom from some poisonous species can and do kill people. Every year, some 1 to 2 million people worldwide get bitten by snakes - including by non-venomous species- and between 50,000 and 100,000 of these bites kill the victim. In Australia, which has the highest percentage of deadly snakes, only 3 to 4 snake bites result in the death of the victim annually. The bulk of the snake bite victims, worldwide are to be found in populous Asia, which is less known for its venomous snakes, and the country with the most annual snakebite deaths is the small island nation of Sri Lanka. Following are the most venomous and dangerous snakes found on the vast Asian continent. COBRAS Cobras are the most common venomous snake in South East Asia, the most densely populated part of the world. In this region, cobras venture very close to where people live and work, and people usually go barefoot. On top of all, many areas lack accessible and adequate medical facilities and people often seek out traditional medicine instead. All these factors combined with the fact that Asiatic cobras have a highly toxic venom result in many deaths by these snakes: probably around 40,000 in that area. -"

Some poisonous serpent is intended, probably the adder, or the serpent known among the Greeks as the basilisk, or cerastes. This figurative expression is designed to show the evil nature and tendency of their works. They were as if they should carefully nourish the eggs of a venomous serpent. Instead of crushing them with the foot and destroying them, they took pains to hatch them, and produce a venomous race of reptiles. Nothing can more forcibly describe the wicked character and plans of sinners than the language used here - plans that are as pernicious, loathsome, and hateful as the poisonous serpents that spread death and ruin and alarm everywhere. And weave the spider‘s web - This phrase, in itself, may denote, as some have understood it, that they formed plans designed to seize upon and destroy others, as spiders weave their web for the purpose of catching and destroying insects.

I was eager to find out…“Behaviorists have logged many hours of research observing cats’ posture and body language during their interactions, both with other cats and with dogs,” says Dr. Collier. “ The facial expression, position of the ears and the tail can tell a great deal about the state of mind of the cat."

This can help you see where and how a fear is based in irrational thinking. Oftentimes, people fear dogs because their parents instilled a fear in them at a very young age by overreacting in the presence of a large, unfamiliar, or overactive dog. If this is the case with you, remember your parents were striving to protect you when you were a small child. You were likely more vulnerable and less likely to understand boundaries with strange animals. In adulthood, you probably do not need to fear the majority of dogs you encounter. [ 1]People often fear dogs because of past experience. If you were bitten by a dog, or witnessed a friend or family member being bitten by a dog, you might have developed a fear because of that incident."

However they have different communication methods and can misinterpret each other's body language. Example: A dog wagging a tail is normally indicating friendship, or enthusiasm of some kind. A cat wagging a tail indicates annoyance and immediately desist whatever you are doing. A dog bows and puts its butt up in the air as a signal to play. A cat raises its back to threaten, and also raises its hindquarters, tail erect, to invite friendly contact. Breed and temperment come into the equation as well. Dogs that have a high \"\"prey instinct\"\" will chase any smaller animal that runs. A calm self assured cat can get along with a breed that would not get along with a nervous cat prone to flight.

If you live in a climate where it is blistering hot and you have no a/c then a little water available all night is needed. If you are toning down for the evening and going to bed at 9pm and have a house that is comfortable for a dog, then yes I agree. I usually suggest no food after 6-7pm and no water after 8-9 pm. But it's your dog and your walk and feed schedule. Just don't load the dog up with food and water and think it will retain all that all night long without having the need to relieve itself.

When your cat waves his tail from side to side in wide arcs, the possible meanings include feeling intense distress, aggression, agitation, curiosity or annoyance. Guessing what your cat is feeling when he waves his tail requires awareness and a bit of deductive reasoning on your part. Look at what's going on around him. If he's hunting or playing with another cat he may be signaling that he's about to pounce."

"text": "Structure and Function of the Tail in Dogs3 Aug, 2015 Virginia Wells 128,719 Views Share Below is information about the structure and function of the canine tail. We will tell you about the general structure of the tail, how the tail works in dogs, common diseases that affect the tail and common diagnostic tests performed in dogs to evaluate the tail. What Is the Tail? The tail is the most posterior or caudal terminal appendage of the vertebral column on a dog. It extends beyond the trunk or main part of the body. Where Is the Tail Located? The tail is located at the end of the vertebral column. It is the hind-most part of the backbone. Not all dogs have a tail. Some dogs are born with short, rudimentary tails."

"text": "\"\"\"Cats are a mysterious kind of folk. There is more passing in their minds than we are aware of.\"\" - Sir Walter Scott Solve the mystery: Indeed, cats are quite mysterious... however, if you are willing to be observant and patient, some mysteries in their behavior might be a little easier to understand! Be a cat detective: All cats are different in their behavior, tolerance and likes, but there are some general patterns that people can use to determine how the cat is feeling. Cat personality and likes vary widely, however by interpreting their feelings and patiently learning about a cat, people can learn what their cat likes or dislikes. The tail says it all: Watching a cat's tail is an excellent way to determine how they are feeling. If you get bitten by a cat, mostly likely you missed the warning signs - a primary one from her tail... Friendly and raised: Usually a cat with a raised tail (sometimes with a slightly bent tip), accompanied by their ears up high, is happy to see you and might approach you in a friendly greeting. You may also see cats approaching each other with raised tails with bent tips... these cats are being friendly! Wagging tail = bad: Unlike a dog, a wagging cat tail does not mean they are happy to see you! You can tell a lot by a cat tail, and when it's moving in a wag, that generally means something or someone is being annoying."

"text": "\"Understanding a Dog's Body Language Prev NEXTOkay, we all know a wagging tail means a dog is friendly, right? Not necessarily. Dogs say lots of things with their tails -- and not all of them are nice. A dog who is wagging her tail might be happy, interested, or confident, but she also may be scared, confused, or ready for a fight. In this section, we'll tell you how to understand a dog's body language. If you learn this skill, it will make communicating with a dog much easier. And that, in turn, will make training a dog much easier. When you see a dog whose tail is wagging wide and fast, the message is almost always, \"\"Glad to see you!\"\" This is a happy, excited dog. On the other hand, a dog holding her tail loosely but horizontally wants to know a bit more about you."

"text": "A Dogs Tail Will Tell You A Lot A dog’s tail and how it carries it is an important indicator of many things such as its current social standing as well as its mental state. There can be some variations, of course, depending upon how the dog naturally carries its tail. For example, a West Highland White Terrier will normally carry its carrot-shaped little tail in a different way than a golden retriever will carry its flowing, feathery tail or very differently than a greyhound will carry its thin, whip-like tail. Watch for these dog tail positions discussed below in your own dogs and how they carry their tails in various interactions with other dogs and it may help you to begin to understand more about how your dog really feels and sees the world.1 – Your dog carries its tail practically horizontal, yet not stiff, and pointing away from its body. This lets you know that they are paying close attention to their surroundings. 2 – Your dog is holding its tail straight out, pointing away from its body, both horizontally and stiff. Watch and you’ll notice that this is part of the process that occurs in any initial challenge whenever they first meet a stranger or an intruder. 3 – If the dog’s tail is help upward, somewhere between a horizontal and vertical position, realize that this is often the sign of a dog that is dominant, confident and feeling in control. This can also be a display of a dog who is asserting his/her dominance – basically translating into “I’m the boss here. Don’t mess with me.”"

"text": "Nick Dolding/The Image Bank/Getty Images A wagging tail is a form of dog communication. Dogs wag their tails to tell us something about how they're feeling, just as they do with other forms of body language . But do you know what canine tail wagging really means? Why Dogs Wag Their Tails Dogs wag their tail to communicate with humans and other animals. Often, it seems fairly obvious what the dog is trying to tell you when he wags his tail. Most people look at a dog with a wagging tail and assume he is happy. While this is usually true, there are times when a dog wags his tail right before he becomes aggressive. It is important that you pay attention to how the dog is holding his tail when he's wagging it. Where the tail is and the way a dog holds his body while he's wagging it can give you a clue about what he is trying to communicate. You should also pay attention to other signs in the dog's body language."

Boasting is in direct statement, and is louder and more vulgar than ostentation. There may be great display or show with little substance; ostentation suggests something substantial to be shown. Pageant, pageantry, parade, and pomp refer principally to affairs of arms or state; as, a royal pageant; a military parade. Pomp is some material demonstration of wealth and power, as in grand and stately ceremonial, rich furnishings, processions, etc., considered as worthy of the person or occasion in whose behalf it is manifested; pomp is the noble side of that which as ostentation is considered as arrogant and vain. Pageant and pageantry are inferior to pomp, denoting spectacular display designed to impress the public mind, and since the multitude is largely ignorant and thoughtless, the words pageant and pageantry have a suggestion of the transient and unsubstantial. Parade (Latin paro, prepare) is an exhibition as of troops in camp going through the evolutions that are to be used in battle, and suggests a lack of earnestness and direct or immediate occasion or demand; hence, in the more general sense, a parade is an uncalled for exhibition, and so used is a more disparaging word than ostentation; ostentation may spring merely from undue self-gratulation, parade implies a desire to impress others with a sense of one's abilities or resources, and is always offensive and somewhat contemptible; as, a parade of wealth or learning. Pomposity and pompousness are the affectation of pomp."

Is this right? As p H increases, the hydrogen-ion concentration __________. Doesn't it decrease? Follow 4 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: donate Na OH >> Na+ + OH- when p H goes up the concentration of H+ decreases and the concentration of OH- increases [H+] [OH-] = 1.0 x 10^-14Dr. A · 10 years ago0 0 Comment The Arrhenius definition of a base is a species that tends to donate hydroxide ions (or accept hydrogen ions) in solution. On the other hand, an Arrhenius acid tends to donate hydrogen ions (or accept hydroxide ions). Recall that p H is a measure of the reciprocal (note the negative sign and the logarithm) of the hydrogen ion concentration in solution, defined by the following equation: p H = -log [H+] Therefore, as you guessed, when hydrogen ion concentration decreases, p H increases. Acidic solutions have low p H; basic solutions have high p H. (Pure water has a p H of exactly 7.) You may also see p H defined like this: p H = -log [H3O+] The H3O+ ion is called a hydronium ion, and this alternate definition of p H is equivalent to the first."

"text": "\"AP Chemistry - Electrochemistry Introduction Electrochemistry involves oxidation reduction reactions that can be brought about by electricity or used to produce electricity. Oxidation and reduction, which will be considered here as the loss and gain of electrons, occur in many chemical systems. The rusting of iron, the photosynthesis that takes place in the leaves of green plants, and the conversion of foods to energy in the body are all examples of chemical changes that involve the transfer of electrons from one chemical species to another. When such reactions can be made to cause electrons to flow through a wire or when a flow of electrons makes a redox reaction happen, the processes are referred to as electrochemical changes . The study of these changes is called electrochemistry. The applications of electrochemistry are widespread. Batteries, which produce electrical energy by means of chemical reactions are in almost anything portable and electronic. In the laboratory, electrical measurements enable us to monitor chemical reactions of all sorts, even those in systems as tiny as a living cell. In industry, many important chemical - including liquid bleach (sodium hypochlorite) and lye (sodium hydroxide) are manufactured by electrochemical means. If it weren't for electrochemistry the important structural metals of aluminum and magnesium would only be laboratory curiosities and most people would see them only in museums."

You may wish to review chemical equations and types of reactions before attempting this chapter. The following reactions are net ionic equations. In other words, spectator ions are not written. If an ion does not partake in the reaction, it is simply excluded. The spectator ions can be found because they occur on both the reactant and the product side of the equation. Cross them out and rewrite the equation without them. Of course, the coefficients must be equal. Canceling out the spectator ions explains the net of net ionic equations.

There are different definitions of bases from different scientists, so what classifies a solution as basic? In this lesson, we will learn about the definition of a basic solution proposed by two scientists, Bronsted and Lowry. What Is a Bronsted-Lowry Base? Back in 1923, two scientists, Johannes Nicolaus Bronsted and Thomas Martin Lowry published a theory on the behavior of acidic and basic solutions. Bronsted came from Denmark, and Lowry came from England. It was a great coincidence that they published the same theory independently but at the same time. That is why this theory, the Bronsted-Lowry definition of acids and bases, was named after the two of them. For this lesson, we will be focusing on basic solutions and how they behave, according to Bronsted and Lowry. We refer to these solutions as Bronsted-Lowry bases."

Yes, if you add plenty of water. When boiling ham or bacon we oftenput it in water, bring it to the boil, and then discard the first water and replace it for the restof the cooking. This gets rid of some of the salt. However, if youhave a liquid (e.g. a soup or gravy), boiling it will onlyevaporate...

"text": "\"Batteries (electrochemical cells) produce electricity by spontaneous chemical reactions. If you understand how batteries work, you understand a key part of chemistry and biochemistry. That is because batteries work by oxidation/reduction (redox) reactions, involving the transfer of electrons. All biochemical energy reactions, such as photosynthesis, chemosynthesis, respiration, phosphorilation, etc., depend on redox chemistry. The terms used in redox chemistry are very confusing (I've never quite understood them). I'll try to line them all up so they make sense. Electrons moving along a conductor is what we call electricity, or electric current. It can be used to generate magnetic fields (as in a motor) or heat things up (as in a light bulb), to drive other chemical reactions (e.g. electrolysis or electroplating), or for many other purposes. ( What are electrons, anyway? )"

Acids and bases were already widely used in various occupations and activities of the time, so Arrhenius' definition merely attempted to explained well-known and long-observed phenomenon. Although simple, at the time this definition of the two types of substances was significant. It allowed chemists to explain certain reactions as ion chemistry, and it also expanded the ability of scientists of the time to predict certain chemical reactions. The definition left a great deal wanting, however, in that many types of reactions that did not involve hydroxide or hydronium ions directly remained unexplained. Many general chemistry classes (especially in the lower grades or introductory levels) still use this simple definition of acids and bases today, but modern organic chemists make further distinctions between acids and bases than the distinctions provided under Arrhenius's definition. Brønsted-Lowry Acids and Bases: Proton donors and acceptors [ edit]A new definition for acids and bases, building upon the one already proposed by Arrhenius, was brought forth independently by Johannes Nicolaus Brønsted and Thomas Martin Lowry in 1923. The new definition did not depend on a substance's dissolution in water for definition, but instead suggested that a substance was acidic if it readily donated a proton (H +) to a reaction and a substance was basic if it accepted a proton in a reaction. Definiton of Brønsted-Lowry Acid and Base An acid is any proton donor and a base is any proton acceptor. The major advantage of the updated definition was that it was not limited to aqueous solution."

Learn More at extension.berkeley.edu8 Answers Anonymous Answered Sep 15, 2014An acid and a base will always react to produce a salt and water. A salt is composed of the positive ion from the base, and the negative ion from the acid. A redox reaction, short for oxidation-reduction reaction always involves the change in oxidation state of two elements. All single replacement reactions are redox reactions. Some synthesis and decomposition reactions can also be redox reactions. Precipitation Reactions occur when cations and anions of aqueous solutions combine to form an insoluble ionic solid, called a precipitate. Whether or not such a reaction occurs can be determined by using the solubility rules for common ionic solids. Since not all aqueous reactions form precipitates, one must consult the solubility rules before determining the state of the products and writing a net ionic equation."

These particular substances produce hydroxide ions (OH −) in aqueous solutions, and are thus classified as Arrhenius bases.

In some ways, physics might be considered more \"\"fundamental\"\" to the extent that it deals with matter and energy in a more general way, without the emphasis on particular substances. But the distincion can get pretty fuzzy; it is ultimately rather futile to confine any aspect of human endeavour to little boxes. Chemistry: the central science The real importance of Chemistry is that it serves as the interface to practically all of the other sciences, as well as to many other areas of human endeavor. For this reason, Chemistry is often said (at least by chemists!) to be the \"\"central science\"\". Chemistry can be \"\"central\"\" in a much more personal way: with a solid background in Chemistry, you will find it far easier to migrate into other fields as your interests develop. Chemistry can enhance any career. Chemistry is so deeply ingrained into so many areas of business, government, and environmental management that some background in the subject can be useful (and able to give you a career edge as a team member having special skills) in fields as varied as product development, marketing, management, computer science, technical writing, and even law.

His greatest discovery may well be the theory of the covalent bond in 1916, but he made many other contributions. One was his theory of acids and bases. In 1923, he wrote:\"\"We are so habituated to the use of water as a solvent, and our data are so frequently limited to those obtained in aqueous solutions, that we frequently define an acid or a base as a substance whose aqueous solution gives, respectively, a higher concentration of hydrogen ion or of hydroxide ion than that furnished by pure water. This is a very one sided definition . . . . \"\" What Lewis wanted was a general definition of an acid and a base, one that was universal no matter what the chemical environment. He know that the current ideas (the Arrhenius theory - dating from the late 1800's and the Bronsted-Lowry theory - announced in January 1923) were not sufficient. In the next 2 pages of discussion, after the above quote, Lewis wrote:\"\"When we discuss aqueous solutions of substances which do not contain hydroxyl [ion], it is simplest to define a base as a substance which adds hydrogen ion. . . . Since hydrogen is a constituent of most of our electrolytic solvents, the definition of an acid or base as a substance which gives up or takes up hydrogen ion would be more general than the one we used before, but it would not be universal. \"\" Lewis then gives his definition of an acid and a base:\"\"We are inclined to think of substances as possessing acid or basic properties, without having a particular solvent in mind."

"text": "\"Weather Calgary's weather is quite unusual compared to the weather in the rest of Canada. Where Eastern Canada and B. C. are quite humid, with ample rain and snow, Calgary is very dry most of the time, with an average annual precipitation of 41 cm (16 inches). While many Canadian homes have de-humidifiers, most Calgary homes have humidifiers. The three months with the most precipitation are June, with an average of 80 mm (3 in), July (68 mm or 2.7 in) and May (60 mm or 2.5 in). The dryness does have one benefit, though: Calgary is quite sunny. The summer months have an average of 9 hours of bright sunshine each day, and average daily maximum temperatures of 22°C (72°F). In fact, because of Calgary's latitude and extra-long summer days, you can get a surprisingly large number of hours of bright sunshine per day; Calgary's record is 16.2 hours of bright sunshine in a single day (June 23, 1973). Another unique aspect of Calgary weather is the Chinook; although other parts of Alberta and Saskatchewan are affected by this warm wind from the west, Calgary and Lethbridge are the cities which experience the strongest Chinooks. In winter, a strong Chinook wind can increase the temperature by 20°C (36°F), so that temperatures can go from -10°C (15°F) to 10 ° C (50°F) in a few hours. Of course, Calgary can have very cold winter weather also, with temperatures dipping as low as -30°C (-22°F) at times; but throughout the winter, the daily high temperature is usually just a degree or two below freezing."

The Earth’s rotation on its axis leads to change between day and night. Another consequence of this rotation is the fact that while moving by 15° from West to East local solar time increases by an hour.

We're planning a trip from the UK in July, flying into Calgary and intending to tour the NPs - Banff, Yoho, Jasper and so on. A traveller we met in Yellowstone told us that Glacier NP (north Montana) was even more beautiful (than Yellowstone) so we'd like to include Waterton Lakes (Can)/Glacier NP (US) in the tour too. The question is, can we cross the border into the US and back again (same day) in a rental car, or do rental companies impose restrictions on this? The answer to the question dictates how we plan the itinerary. If anyone can also recommend reasonably priced and located accommodation suitable for exploring Jasper NP for a couple of days, that would be a real bonus.

However, you do need to check that your car rental company allows this, as not all of them do. Above all, you need a written document that authorises you to do that."

Winters are cold, but are shorter and less severe than most Canadian cities. Summers are hot and sunny. Penticton and the Okanagan Valley are surrounded by the Rocky Mountains. The mountains block Arctic winds from reaching Penticton. They also prevent mild maritime air from reaching Penticton in summer, resulting in higher temperatures than encountered in Vancouver. Penticton’s high summer temperatures are more pleasant than Ontario’s, because the Okanagan Valley’s summer humidities are lower than Ontario’s. Penticton’s afternoon humidity in summer is about 35 percent. Toronto’s is about 55 percent. Snow depths of greater than 1 cm are seen on about 35 days each year in Penticton compared with about 65 days in Toronto, 88 in Calgary, and 120 in Ottawa."

The Devastating Effects Of The Arctic Outbreak Freezing The U. S. Penguins from the Calgary Zoo in Canada have been brought indoors due to extremely frigid temperatures that have taken over much of North America, according to reports. The zookeepers aimed to take precautionary measures to adequately protect the birds from the increasingly cold weather. The Calgary Zoo's guidelines require zookeepers to hold penguins inside if temperatures fall below -25 C, CTV News reported. Since temperatures have reportedly averaged at around -28 C in past few days, Zoo curator Malu Celli claimed that the low temperatures mixed with the wind chill have caused it to feel more like -40 C. As of now, there are 51 king penguins residing at the Calgary Zoo that are affected by the freezing weather. \"\" We just don't want to expose them to too much,\"\" Celli said in an interview Sunday, according to The Globe and Mail. \"\" To keep them safe, we decided to pick a limit to let them out. \"\" Zoo penguins were taken inside, sharks have washed up dead and records have been set https://t.co/9oq L5j DX7W— The New York Times (@nytimes) January 3, 2018\"\"It's not necessarily that it's too cold for them. I believe that physiologically, they can withstand colder weather than what we have here, but these are not wild birds,\"\" Celli added. King penguins, which are the second largest penguin species behind the Emperor penguin, have the ability to adapt to many ranges of weather conditions from the Antarctic region to southern Chile."

Further to this, Canada, the United States, and Mexico have agreed to replace the SA with METAR for aviation within North America beginning in 1996. The purpose of this booklet is to further explain each element of the METAR and to give examples of the various codes. An exercise has been provided to reinforce one's understanding of this new code.

All actors are happy having a hot tea and relaxing in a studio between shoots.

Deerfoot Trail (Highway 2) running north-south is one of two freeways in Calgary, the other being Stoney Trail which presently runs in an elongated horseshoe across the northwest, north and eastern sides of the city (with plans for it to eventually be a complete ring road). Certain other roads have sections that alternate between being a true freeway and an at-grade expressway, with plans to become full freeways."

In 2008, the Calgary Stampede was inducted into the Pro Rodeo Hall of Fame. [ 4]The event's roots are traced to 1886 when the Calgary and District Agricultural Society held its first fair. In 1912, American promoter Guy Weadick organized his first rodeo and festival, known as the Stampede. He returned to Calgary in 1919 to organize the Victory Stampede in honour of soldiers returning from World War I. Weadick's festival became an annual event in 1923 when it merged with the Calgary Industrial Exhibition to create the Calgary Exhibition and Stampede. Organized by thousands of volunteers and supported by civic leaders, the Calgary Stampede has grown into one of the world's richest rodeos, one of Canada's largest festivals and a significant tourist attraction for the city.

An entity supertype is a generic entity type that is related to one or more entity subtypes, where the entitysupertype contains the commoncharacteristics and the entity subtypes contain the unique characteristics of each entity subtype.

Commonly used to store information about an organization and its assets and users, LDAP is a flexible solution for defining any type of entity and its qualities. For many users, LDAP can seem difficult to understand because it relies on special terminology, makes use of some uncommon abbreviations, and is often implemented as a component of a larger system of interacting parts. In this guide, we will introduce you to some of the LDAP basics so that you have a good foundation for working with the technology. What is a Directory Service? A directory service is used to store, organize and present data in a key-value type format. Typically, directories are optimized for lookups, searches, and read operations over write operations, so they function extremely well for data that is referenced often but changes infrequently. The data stored in a directory service is often descriptive in nature and used to define the qualities of an entity. An example of a physical object that would be well represented in a directory service is an address book. Each person could be represented by an entry in the directory, with key-value pairs describing their contact information, place of business, etc."

Its purpose is to rigorously define each and every data element, data structure, and data transform.25.2 Strengths, weaknesses, and limitations A data dictionary helps to improve communication between analysts and users and between technical personnel by establishing a set of consistent data definitions. If programmers develop data descriptions from a common data dictionary, several potentially serious module interface problems can be avoided. At a higher level, different systems must often be linked or interfaced, and a common set of data definitions helps to minimize misunderstandings. By highlighting already existing data elements, a data dictionary helps the analyst avoid data redundancy. If all programs using a given data element are cross-referenced in the data dictionary, assessing the ripple effects of a change in the data is simplified.25.3 Inputs and related ideas The first step in creating a data dictionary is to identify the system’s data elements and composites, a key objective of the information gathering phase of the system development life cycle (Part II). The data dictionary is an important adjunct to several analysis tools, such as data flow diagrams ( # 24 ), entity-relationship diagrams ( # 26 ), and data normalization ( # 28 ). Creating a data dictionary is an important step in designing and developing traditional files ( # 44) or a database ( # 45 ). The data dictionary often serves as a foundation for the requirements specification ( # 35 ). Data structures are described in # 43."

"text": "\"Business Intelligence Implementing Supertypes and Subtypes Why, how, and when Michelle A. Poolet | Oct 25, 2006In \"\" Data-Modeling Contention ,\"\" September 2006, I discussed using supertypes and subtypes when modeling data. Since that article's publication, I've received email from readers asking for more information about when and how to use supertypes and subtypes both for data modeling and implementing in a database. I'll try to answer these questions, but first let's discuss why you'd use supertypes and subtypes. When to Use Supertypes and Subtypes You can use supertypes and subtypes when you're creating the conceptual data model. Supertyping and subtyping are techniques that data modelers use to better understand how data is structured and to understand the metadata. Supertypes and subtypes are structures that are used in the requirements-gathering stage of database development. One might argue that subtyping is simply establishing a set of categories for a generalized entity, so why don't we just use a simple lookup table instead of the supertype-subtype structure? Sometimes we do. For example, when a category is simple and lends itself to a one-or two-word description, such as Microsoft Outlook's Task Status—Not Started, In Progress, Completed, Waiting on someone else, or Deferred— using a lookup or reference table and creating a foreign key reference to the main entity is the right thing to do. In that case, Task Status to Task would be a one-to-many (1: M) relationship, as the conceptual data model in Figure 1 shows."

The concept of local enchantments existed since the start of Magic's history, but the Aura subtype was only recently introduced in the Ravnica block . The most common target of Auras are creatures and lands. Some auras enhance the creature's stats (i.e. : Holy Strength ), or give it additional abilities (i.e. : Firebreathing, Phantom Wings ). Other auras can be used to reduced an opposing creature's effectiveness, either by preventing it from participating in combat (i.e. : Pacifism and similar cards), or adding some drawbacks to it. Auras that target lands usually augment its mana generating properties (i.e. : Wild Growth ). Auras are unique in that they are the only type of permanent card that requires a target to be cast as a spell. In any zone other than the stack, Auras do not have a target. Because of this, you cannot cast an Aura on a creature with shroud, for example, but you can attach an Aura to such a creature if you can manage to put it onto the battlefield without casting it."

These properties cause Oracle to treat values of one datatype differently from values of another. For example, you can add values of NUMBER datatype, but not values of RAW datatype. When you create a table or cluster, you must specify a datatype for each of its columns. When you create a procedure or stored function, you must specify a datatype for each of its arguments. These datatypes define the domain of values that each column can contain or each argument can have. For example, DATE columns cannot accept the value February 29 (except for a leap year) or the values 2 or 'SHOE'. Each value subsequently placed in a column assumes the datatype of the column. For example, if you insert '01-JAN-98' into a DATE column, then Oracle treats the '01-JAN-98' character string as a DATE value after verifying that it translates to a valid date."

To ensure consistency and meaningful behavior of the generated code, data classes have to fulfill the following requirements: The primary constructor needs to have at least one parameter;All primary constructor parameters need to be marked as val or var;Data classes cannot be abstract, open, sealed or inner; (before 1.1) Data classes may only implement interfaces. Additionally, the members generation follows these rules with regard to the members inheritance: If there are explicit implementations of equals (), hash Code () or to String () in the data class body or final implementations in a superclass, then these functions are not generated, and the existing implementations are used;If a supertype has the component N () functions that are open and return compatible types, the corresponding functions are generated for the data class and override those of the supertype. If the functions of the supertype cannot be overridden due to incompatible signatures or being final, an error is reported;Deriving a data class from a type that already has a copy (...) function with a matching signature is deprecated in Kotlin 1.2 and will be prohibited in Kotlin 1.3. Providing explicit implementations for the component N () and copy () functions is not allowed. Since 1.1, data classes may extend other classes (see Sealed classes for examples). On the JVM, if the generated class needs to have a parameterless constructor, default values for all properties have to be specified (see Constructors ).data class User ( val name: String = \"\"\"\", val age: Int = 0)Properties Declared in the Class Body Note that the compiler only uses the properties defined inside the primary constructor for the automatically generated functions.

Real objects, such as an employee or a sales order, can be represented as business objects in business application systems, such as the SAP Systems. SAP business objects encapsulate SAP data and business processes while hiding the structure and implementation details of the underlying data. Structure To achieve this encapsulation, SAP business objects are created as entities with several layers. At the core of an SAP business object is the kernel, which represents the object's inherent data. The second layer, the integrity layer, represents the business logic of the object. It comprises the business rules for consistent embedding in the environment and the constraints regarding the values and domains that apply to the business object. The third layer, the interface layer, describes the implementation and structure of the SAP business object, and defines the object's interface to the outside world. The fourth and outermost layer of a business object is the access layer, which defines the technologies that can be used for external access to the object’s data, for example, COM/DCOM ( (Component Object Model/Distributed Component Object Model).

Definition from IAI: The derivation of the dimensionality of the Ifc Geometric Representation Item is different to STEP, there is a specific derived attribute at each class that defines the dimensionality, whereas STEP does it for the representation_context and requires all geometric_representation_item's to have the same dimensionality therein. The definition of swept area solids as geometric representation items is different to STEP, it is based on a set of predefined profiles (or cross sections), i.e. a set of parameterized geometric primitives widely supported in the industry. Those profiles are used to create volumes through extrusion, revolution and cross section based sweep operations."

The specific case of heterozygote advantage due to a single locus is known as overdominance. [ 1] [2] Overdominance is a condition in genetics where the phenotype of the heterozygote lies outside of the phenotypical range of both homozygote parents, and heterozygous individuals have a higher fitness than homozygous individuals. Polymorphism can be maintained by selection favoring the heterozygote, and this mechanism is used to explain the occurrence of some kinds of genetic variability. A common example is the case where the heterozygote conveys both advantages and disadvantages, while both homozygotes convey a disadvantage. A well-established case of heterozygote advantage is that of the gene involved in sickle cell anaemia. Often, the advantages and disadvantages conveyed are rather complicated, because more than one gene may influence a given trait or morph."

At the end of this chapter you should be able to explain and apply these concepts.1 Databases, this class, and you Data bases, and the data base management systems that lord over them, are the core information systems technology. They are used---and will be used---to store corporate data, web pages, on-line movies, work flow information, document databases---absolutely everything that is of interest to business. After taking this class you will clearly understand and be able to explain why this is a good thing. This understanding will allow you to see opportunities for exploiting this technology in innovative ways. Both of the above will be useful for a student (and eventual businessperson) whether they be interested in accounting, marketing, human resources, or finance. Business process reengineering (BPR) (by whatever name) virtually demands that data bases take a more central role in a corporation’s life. By its very definition BPR demands that people from throughout an organisation apply information technology solutions to broad problems. Data bases are one of the more frequently applied solutions. Thus, I propose that a great percentage of students interested in business should be knowledgeable about data bases.2 A very simple modelling exercise The whole purpose of ER modelling is to create an accurate reflection of the real world in a database."

An array of ratios are available for discerning the relationship between the size of various accounts in the financial statements. For example, one can calculate a company's quick ratio to estimate its ability to pay its immediate liabilities, or its debt to equity ratio to see if it has taken on too much debt. These analyses are frequently between the revenues and expenses listed on the income statement and the assets, liabilities, and equity accounts listed on the balance sheet.

In addition to estimating future income and expenses, pro forma analysis can be used to estimate the growth of retained earnings over time. It is important to note that pro forma analysis only provides estimates of financial activity based on specific underlying assumptions. Whether you are preparing or reviewing pro forma statements, you always need to be aware of what the underlying assumptions are. Retained Earnings Defined As a company does business, it hopefully makes an annual profit. While a business may sometimes distribute those earnings to its owners, it will often retain this income. This accumulated income is known as retained earnings and it is used to help perpetuate business growth. Since the owners can receive the retained earnings through a distribution by the business, the retained earnings are listed in the equity section of the balance sheet."

However, “the information provided in the financial statements is not an end in itself as no meaningful conclusions can be drawn from these statements alone.” Firms employ financial analysts to read, compare and interpret the data as necessary for quantitative analysis and decision-making. Definition Properly comparing a balance sheet with the corresponding profit and loss account to determine the strengths and weaknesses of a business describes financial statement analysis. “ In a technical sense, financial statements summarize the accounting process and provide a tabulation of account titles and amounts of money,” reports Reference for Business. Financial statements help communicate what financial decisions have been made and how they affect the bottom line. Significance Financial analysis determines a company's health and stability. The data gives you an intuitive understanding of how the company conducts business. Stockholders can find out how management employs resources and whether they use them properly. Governments and regulatory authorities use financial statements to determine the legality of a company's fiscal decisions and whether the firm is following correct accounting procedures."

While internal stakeholders like corporate managers may use financial statement ratios to flag problems requiring attention, they have access to a far greater range of other financial information than external stakeholders to make their decisions. External stakeholders simply have the financial statements covering past periods as their only source of information to give them insights into the financial position and performance of the company. So a ratio analysis of the income statement and balance sheet to calculate the key financial ratios is vitally important to them. Typical external stakeholders include:existing or potential investors in the company and their share analyst.existing or potential loan providers (bank, finance company) in regard to a company's creditworthiness.existing or potential suppliers providing credit arrangement to the company (creditors)Key financial ratio areas These external stakeholders are most interested in using the financial ratio analysis to answer questions about 5 key areas of concern:the ability of the company to pay its bills as they become due.

It is a clearly defined starting point from where a new strategy is implemented, an existing improvement is judged or a comparison between two periods is made. If a public company wants to analyze its profits, for example, it will choose one year's profits as a baseline and judge all subsequent years against the baseline, analyzing potential reasons behind the positive or negative change. A baseline is specifically used in situations where a person or company is conducting financial statement or budget analysis. Financial statements analysis uses ratios or accounting numbers as the baseline for financial performance. Budget analysis uses existing revenues and spending as the baseline for assessing whether or not the project being budgeted is implemented successfully.

You'll use the three main financial statements, balance sheet, income statement, and statement of cash flows. Make sure, especially if you're using financial statements from more than one reporting period, that each financial statement has been prepared the same way so that you have data that's directly comparable from one period to another. Take this into consideration also if you choose to compare your financial data to that of outside firms or industry averages. Each of the following methods gives visibility into business trends, variances, and issues, raising questions about the company that needs to be answered. Examining the business, finding the explanations for variances and making changes based on positive or negative trends is the real outcome of financial statement analysis.01 Trend Analysis Trend analysis is also called time-series analysis. Trend analysis helps a firm's financial manager determine how the firm is likely to perform over time, based on trends shown by past history. Trend analysis uses historical data from the firm's financial statements, along with forecasted data from the company's pro forma, or forward-looking, financial statements, to assemble a longer-term view of its financial activity and look for variations over time. One popular way of doing trend analysis is through financial ratio analysis."

"text": "AAII Journal > December 2012Read Comments (5)Breaking Down ROE Using the Du Pont Formulaby Joe Lan, CFAReturn on equity (ROE) is a commonly used profitability ratio that measures the effectiveness of management in generating earnings for shareholders. Return on equity measures net income less preferred dividends against total stockholder’s equity. The three primary drivers of ROE are better sales (or turnover), greater margins and higher debt levels, each of which can lead to a higher ROE. Although return on equity is a useful tool, it does not tell you what factors are helping or hurting the company’s performance. The Du Pont formula addresses this concern by breaking down ROE and allowing investors to see which characteristics are driving ROE. Analysis of the Du Pont formula allows you to determine whether management is generating value for shareholders effectively. Return on Equity Return on equity measures the level of income attributed to shareholders against the investment that shareholders put into the firm. In other words, it measures how efficiently a company is able to generate profits using shareholder’s equity, which includes stock offerings and retained earnings. There are different ways to calculate ROE. The denominator of the equation, total shareholder’s equity, can simply be the shareholder’s equity at the end of the period, which is found on the balance sheet."

In this article we’ll take a deep dive into the topic of credit analysis, provide a clear framework you can use to perform your own credit analysis, and we will also clear up some common misconceptions. But before we get too far into the world of credit analysis, we have a handy financial statement analysis template that will allow you to analyze the financial statements for any company over multiple time periods. It comes complete with side-by-side comparison and it also automatically calculates several helpful credit analysis ratios, which we discuss in detail below. The 5 C’s of Credit Analysis First of all, let’s quickly go over some credit analysis basics. Every newly minted credit analyst inside of a bank is indoctrinated with the 5 C’s of Credit Analysis.

I was told that this means that I will not grow good eggs. I am devastated, I was hoping to get pregnant and start having a family, but this news has caused me so much grief. Is there any hope for me with natural remedies to increase my eggs? Treating Low Anti-Mullerian Hormone Levels naturally The Anti-Mullerian Hormone is produced by the ovarian follicles and AMH levels are used to measure the number of antral follicles in the ovaries. Women with lower AMH have fewer follicles and produce a smaller number of eggs. The AMH test is used more and more because the levels of Anti-Mullerian Hormone do not change significantly throughout the menstrual cycle and can be measured anytime during the menstrual cycle. Low levels are found in older women (over 38), while higher levels are found in women with PCOS. Normal AMH levels are: 2.0 ?"

In the ovary, AMH has an inhibitory effect on primordial follicle recruitment as well as on the responsiveness of growing follicles to follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). The ovary-specific expression pattern in granulosa cells of growing nonselected follicles makes AMH an ideal marker for the size of the ovarian follicle pool. This review summarizes recent findings concerning AMH and its role as a marker for the quantitative aspect of ovarian reserve as well as ovarian dysfunction. Previous Section Next Section Introduction The ovarian reserve, constituted by the size of the ovarian follicle pool and the quality of the oocytes therein, declines with increasing age, resulting in the decrease of a woman’s reproductive function ( te Velde et al. 1998 a ). The size of the follicle pool is established at an early point in life. During fetal life, germ cells populate the ovary and become surrounded by somatic cells, forming the so-called primordial follicles. At birth, about 1 million oocytes are present. This number decreases during childhood, resulting in a primordial follicle pool of 300 000–500 000 follicles at menarche ( Faddy et al."

"text": "Mullerian Duct Definition - What does Mullerian Ductmean? The Mullerian ducts are paired ducts which coexist in a developing fetus, from which the female internal reproductive organs are derived by a lateral fusion of the two ducts. These ducts conjoin and form the uterus, the cervix, the fallopian tubes and upper end of the vagina. Complete fusion results in a single uterine cavity. If the baby is a boy, these ducts disappear by the third month of fetal life. Congenital (from birth) uterine anomalies can arise from a defect in the fusion of the mullerian ducts, and can be the cause for infertility or miscarriages, preterm births and difficult childbirth. Fertility Smarts explains Mullerian Duct Development of the mullerian ducts begins at about the fourth week of life. During normal development, these ducts come together side by side and there is a fusing of some length of the two ducts. This leads to the formation of a single uterus with an open cavity and two fallopian tubes. However, in certain cases the uterus and fallopian tubes may not form normally."

[ 1] This type of tumor is characterized by both benign (noncancerous) and malignant components ( low-grade sarcoma ). [ 1] [2] Typical symptoms in affected individuals may include abnormal vaginal bleeding, an enlarged uterus, and tissue protruding from the external os (external opening of the uterus that leads into the cavity of the cervix). [ 1] [3] It is most common in post-menopausal women but can affect women of any age. [ 3] Factors that may predisposed an individual to the condition include hyperestrogenemia (high blood estrogen levels), chemotherapy, or radiotherapy. [ 3] Recommended treatment includes hysterectomy, usually accompanied by bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (removal of fallopian tubes and ovaries). [ 1] Ovarian conservation is an option for reproductive age women. [ 1]Last updated: 10/12/2012Cause Listen The exact cause of adenosarcoma of the uterus is not always known. The development of these tumors has been associated with a few risk factors. Risk factors are associated with an increased risk of developing a condition; however, most people with these risk factors will never develop the condition."

"text": "FERTILITY FACTS: ANTI-MüLLERIAN HORMONE (AMH) CAN HELP PREDICT YOUR OVARIAN RESERVE. By Shady Grove Fertility • June 23, 2017 • 90 Comments What is Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH)? Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) is a hormone produced by the cells that support the dormant pool of eggs in the ovaries. Therefore, a higher level of AMH suggests a larger pool of eggs (or a greater ovarian reserve). “ This is a very useful test for us because it doesn’t tend to fluctuate as much as follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels and it gives us another angle to assess the ovarian reserve. As it pertains to an individual’s fertility, the higher the level, the better,” says Dr. Joseph Doyle, of Shady Grove Fertility’s Rockville, MD office. Did you know: an AMH level greater than 1 suggests a good ovarian reserve? AMH levels are determined through a blood test and unlike other hormones, levels do not vary significantly through the menstrual cycle. This means that you can check it on any day of the cycle and it doesn’t tend to vary from cycle to cycle like FSH levels can. Another benefit of AMH is that it provides insight into the estimated number of eggs that could be retrieved during an IVF or egg freezing cycle as well as how much medication will be required for ovarian stimulation during a treatment cycle."

"text": "Egg Freezing Introduction Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available. Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML5 video. Over the last several decades, much effort has been extended towards the successful cryopreservation (freezing) of human cells and tissues. Cryopreservation of human sperm has been available for decades enabling men to bank sperm who otherwise may become sterile, due to radiation, chemotherapy, or surgical castration. Scientists have been trying to cryopreserve human eggs for all of the same reasons. In addition, because there is no ongoing production of eggs throughout a woman’s life, the quality of eggs released each month deteriorates with age, making childbearing after age 35 more difficult and risky. Technically, cryopreservation of sperm is quite simple due to the small size and relatively low water content of spermatozoa. The egg is a large cell with high water content, and is therefore prone to ice crystal damage. It is the prevention of this ice crystal formation that is critical to successfully freezing an egg. Since 1984 advanced reproductive medicine programs worldwide have been cryopreserving fertilized eggs, i.e. (pre) embryos."

"text": "Blood Test Helps Predict Menopause Findings Could Help Women Make Decisions About Family Planning By Katrina Woznicki From the Web MD Archives June 28, 2010 -- Researchers have developed a blood test they say can predict how long of a reproductive life a woman has before menopause. The blood test measures levels of a hormone called anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH), which is produced by the cells in women’s ovaries and is a marker for ovarian function. The test could tell women as young as 20 when they would enter menopause. Sixty-three women reached menopause during the course of the study, and the test was able in most cases to predict the age within about four months of the woman’s actual age; the maximum margin of error was between three and four years. Study author Fahimeh Ramezani Tehrani, president of the Reproductive Endocrinology Department of the Endocrine Research Centre and a faculty member and associate professor of Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences in Tehran, Iran, reported her findings at the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology in Rome. Continue Reading Belowyou might like The findings could have implications on how women approach family planning. Researchers said it is one of the first population-based studies to provide a statistical model for predicting age at menopause. “We developed a statistical model for estimating the age at menopause from a single measurement of AMH concentration in serum from blood samples,” Ramezani Tehrani says. “ Using this model, we estimated mean average ages at menopause for women at different time points in their reproductive life span from varying levels of serum AMH concentration. We were able to show that there was a good level of agreement between ages at menopause estimated by our model and the actual age at menopause for a subgroup of 63 women who reached menopause during the study."

Scientists from Yale University and the Albert Einstein College of Medicine have produced a study that finds patients with type O blood were at double the risk of diminished ovarian (egg) reserve than women of other blood types. They’re presenting their results to the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) annual conference in Denver. However, one expert on fertility says more research needs to be done after these “surprising and stark” findings. Type O Blood and Fertility Researchers measured women under age 45 for levels of the reproductive hormone FSH. Women with an FSH level greater than 10 are considered to have diminished ovarian reserve. They made adjustments for other fertility factors including age and BMI (body mass index), then compared women’s blood types and FSH levels. Women with types A or AB blood were significantly less likely to have an FSH greater than 10 than were women with types O or B blood.

"text": "Details of genital development At conception, gender is determined by chromosome characteristics -The genetic sex of a child is established at conception based on the 23rd pair of chromosomes it inherits. The mother's egg contains an X chromosome, and the father's sperm will contain either an X or Y chromosome. It is the male (or rather the male's sperm) that dictates whether the baby will be a boy or a girl. X chromosome A baby who inherits the X chromosome from the father is a genetic female (a pair of X chromosomes). If the embryo is female (XX), then no testosterone is made. The Wolffian duct will degrade, and the Mullerian duct will develop into female sex organs. The female clitoris is the remnants of the Wolffian duct. Y chromosome A baby who inherits the Y chromosome from the father is a genetic male (one X and one Y chromosome). If the embryo is a male (XY chromosomes), then testosterone will stimulate the Wolffian duct to develop male sex organs, and the Mullerian duct will degrade. During the first few weeks of fetus development, your baby's internal and external genital structures are the same, regardless of whether you are ultimately going to have a boy or a girl."

Essentially, it’s a measurement of how often a given event repeats in time. If you subscribe to a daily paper, then the frequency of paper delivery could be described as once per day, seven times per week. When we talk about the frequency of a sound, we’re referring to how many times a particular pattern of amplitudes repeats during one second. Not all waveforms or physical vibrations repeat exactly (in fact almost none do!). But many vibratory phenomena, especially those in which we perceive some sort of pitch, repeat approximately regularly. If we assume that in fact they are repeating, we can measure the rate of repetition, and we call that the waveform’s frequency.

' Timbre' is a common synonym for tone color. Imagine that two different instruments are playing the same musical line, the same notes, the same dynamics, etc. Even if they were played exactly the same way, a listener would quickly notice that one was played by a trombone and the other was played by a saxophone. That difference between the instrumental sounds is called the 'tone color'. A trombone has a different tone color from a saxophone. TEXTURE -- \"\"how the musical lines are woven\"\".

The three types are the Major, minor and Perfect intervals. Each of the intervals you have learned so far has a unique number of half steps. There are two other interval types that can be applied to numerical intervals of a 2 nd and higher. They are called Augmented and diminished intervals. These intervals do not actually exist as a truly separate entity with their own unique half step count. For example, A Major 2 nd has two half steps and so does a diminished 3 rd.

To define a spell effect, you must at least specify a position and an effect name. Some of the positions have additional options that can be specified, and many of the effects also have additional options. You specify the effects under the 'effects' option in each spell configuration. Example Use this as an example to format your sound effects.

It is defined as the interval between two adjacent notes in a 12-tone scale. For example, C is adjacent to C ♯; the interval between them is a semitone. In a 12-note approximately equally divided scale, any interval can be defined in terms of an appropriate number of semitones (e.g. a whole tone or major second is 2 semitones wide, a major third 4 semitones, and a perfect fifth 7 semitones. In music theory, a distinction is made [6] between a diatonic semitone, or minor second (an interval encompassing two different staff positions, e.g. from C to D ♭) and a chromatic semitone or augmented unison (an interval between two notes at the same staff position, e.g. from C to C ♯ ). These are enharmonically equivalent when twelve-tone equal temperament is used, but are not the same thing in meantone temperament, where the diatonic semitone is distinguished from and larger than the chromatic semitone (augmented unison). See Interval (music)#Number for more details about this terminology. In twelve-tone equal temperament all semitones are equal in size (100 cents). In other tuning systems, \"\"semitone\"\" refers to a family of intervals that may vary both in size and name."

"text": "\"Daniel Yarritu, Electric, steel string and classical guitarist (1995-present)Answered Feb 17, 2018 · Author has 586 answers and 299.1k answer views“Octo” means “eight”. In western music we use diatonic scales which are seven notes long. The eighth note in the diatonic scale is considered a repetition of the first but at a higher pitch. Octaves are so similar that played together they can seem to blend into one tone. This is because the octave above is found in the natural overtone series of a tone. When you divide a vibrating string in half, quarters and eighths you get progressive octaves above the starting pitch (halfway is one octave higher, a quarter is two octaves higher etc). The C major scale is a diatonic scale: C D EF G A BC…The note C appears twice but the second C vibrates twice as fast as the first and is an octave higher. The scale would continue with the same note names but sounding at higher octaves. Using the same names for notes these notes helps to simplify our system so you don’t have to learn unique names for every note across the entire range of tones. Think of the days of the week- every seven days we start over again."

"text": "Music Theory Comparisons Music What is the difference between the chromatic and diatonic scale?6 Answers Quora User, pianist, composer. Answered Aug 11, 2015 · Author has 2.8k answers and 5.4m answer views The chromatic scale contains all twelve tones inside the standard Western octave. If you play a bunch of keys on the piano — white and black — in a sequence that moves from left to right without skipping any keys, then you are playing an ascending chromatic scale. The same is obtained by progressing up the guitar fretboard one fret at a time. A diatonic scale is best understood as one which moves through pitch letter names in sequence, without skipping any letters, applying accidentals to certain pitches so as to create a pattern of whole steps and half steps. Ex. ) A-B-C-D-E-F-G- (A) is the diatonic scale known as A minor. C-D-E-F-G-A-B- (C) is the diatonic scale known as C major. Notice that no letter names are skipped in the scale sequences. If we were to make every note in the A minor scale flat, it would then become the A-flat minor scale; were we to sharp every note in the C major scale, it would become the scale of C-sharp major."

"text": "\"Check out Karyn's channel for more informative, practical content!Understanding Vocal Range, Vocal Registers and Voice Type - A Glossary of Vocal Terms There seems to be a lot of confusion amongst singers, especially those who are not trained or have no musical background, with regards to certain vocal terminology. For this reason, I have created a glossary of terms to help singers better understand the basic concepts of vocal range, vocal registers and voice type. A companion to this article, How To Determine Singing Range and Vocal Fach (Voice Type), provides additional practical information on several of the topics discussed more briefly in this article. Vocal Range In its broadest sense, the term vocal range refers to the full spectrum of notes that a singer's voice is able to produce, starting from the bottommost note and reaching to the uppermost note. In other words, range refers to the distance between the highest and lowest pitches that a singer is able to sing. This extreme range of the individual's voice, consisting of all non-utilizable, utterable but nondescript vocal sounds, measured from the lowest grunt to the highest obtainable vocal squeak may also be called ' vocable compass '. An untrained singer typically has a more limited range than a well-trained singer, who has learned how to gain access to more notes through correct technique and through regularly exercising and using the vocal instrument for singing tasks. Every instrument has its own unique range capabilities, as well, with some voices being able to develop more extensive ranges than others. In opera or solo classical music, often only the parts of the range that are considered musically useful are counted as part of the range. ' Usefulness' with regards to range in classical style singing is defined by consistency of timbre and the ability to 'project' the pitches effectively."

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

The terms form a structural dichotomy in which they define each other by mutual exclusion: a consonance is what is not dissonant, and reciprocally. However, a finer consideration shows that the distinction forms a gradation, from the most consonant to the most dissonant. As Hindemith stressed, \"\"The two concepts have never been completely explained, and for a thousand years the definitions have varied\"\" ( Hindemith 1942, p. 85). The opposition can be made in different contexts: In acoustics or psychophysiology, the distinction may be objective."

[ 3] Pitch is a major auditory attribute of musical tones, along with duration, loudness, and timbre. [ 4]Pitch may be quantified as a frequency, but pitch is not a purely objective physical property; it is a subjective psychoacoustical attribute of sound.

In music, an accidental is a note of a pitch (or pitch class) that is not a member of the scale or mode indicated by the most recently applied key signature. In musical notation, the sharp ( ♯ ), flat ( ♭ ), and natural ( ♮) symbols, among others, mark such notes—and those symbols are also called accidentals. In the measure (bar) where it appears, an accidental sign raises or lowers the immediately following note (and any repetition of it in the bar) from its normal pitch, overriding sharps or flats (or their absence) in the key signature. A note is usually raised or lowered by a semitone, although microtonal music may use \"\"fractional\"\" accidental signs. There are occasionally double sharps or flats, which raise or lower the indicated note by a whole tone. Accidentals apply within the measure and octave in which they appear, unless canceled by another accidental sign, or tied into a following measure. If a note has an accidental and the note is repeated in a different octave within the same measure, the accidental does not apply to the same note of the different octave.the first seven letters of the alphabet represent the basic diatonic pitches, with additional symbols called accidentals. In addition to the sharp ( ♯) and flat ( ♭) used in Europe to indicate the displacement of a scale degree by a semitone up or down, respectively, Arabic theorists have added accidentals representing a lowering of a pitch by a quarter-tone () and raising it by a quarter-tone sharp ( ).

Ascending and descending chromatic scale Play ( help · info)Pattern of intervals in the C-major scale Play ( help · info)In music theory, a scale is any set of musical notes ordered by fundamental frequency or pitch. A scale ordered by increasing pitch is an ascending scale, and a scale ordered by decreasing pitch is a descending scale. Some scales contain different pitches when ascending than when descending, for example, the melodic minor scale. Often, especially in the context of the common practice period, most or all of the melody and harmony of a musical work is built using the notes of a single scale, which can be conveniently represented on a staff with a standard key signature. [ 1]Due to the principle of octave equivalence, scales are generally considered to span a single octave, with higher or lower octaves simply repeating the pattern. A musical scale represents a division of the octave space into a certain number of scale steps, a scale step being the recognizable distance (or interval) between two successive notes of the scale. [ 2] However, there is no need for scale steps to be equal within any scale and, particularly as demonstrated by microtonal music, there is no limit to how many notes can be injected within any given musical interval. A measure of the width of each scale step provides a method to classify scales. For instance, in a chromatic scale each scale step represents a semitone interval, while a major scale is defined by the interval pattern T–T–S–T–T–T–S, where T stands for whole tone (an interval spanning two semitones), and S stands for semitone."

"text": "Introduction Glaciers have played an important role in the shaping of landscapes in the middle and high latitudes and in alpine environments. Their ability to erode soil and rock, transport sediment, and deposit sediment is extraordinary. During the last glacial period more than 50 million square kilometers of land surface were geomorphically influenced by the presence of glaciers. Glacial Erosion Two major erosional processes occur at the base of a glacier . First, at the base of a glacier, large amounts of loose rock and sediment are incorporated into the moving glacial ice by partial melting and refreezing. The second process of erosion involves the abrasive action of the held rock and sediment held by the ice on the surface underneath the glacier. This abrasive process is known as scouring. Scouring creates a variety of features. The most conspicuous feature of scouring is striations ( Figure 10af-1 ). Striations appear as scratches of various size on rock surfaces."

KARST - Introduction Throughout the world karst landscapes vary from rolling hills dotted with sinkholes, as found in portions of the central United States, to jagged hills and pinnacle karst found in the tropics. The development of all karst landforms requires the presence of rock which is capable of being dissolved by surface water or ground water. The term karst describes a distinctive topography that indicates dissolution (also called chemical solution) of underlying soluble rocks by surface water or ground water. Although commonly associated with carbonate rocks (limestone and dolomite) other highly soluble rocks such as evaporates (gypsum and rock salt) can be sculpted into karst terrain. Understanding caves and karst is important because ten percent of the Earth's surface is occupied by karst landscape and as much as a quarter of the world's population depends upon water supplied from karst areas. Though most abundant in humid regions where carbonate rock is present, karst terrain occurs in temperate, tropical, alpine and polar environments."

Landslides are rock, earth, or debris flows on slopes due to gravity. They can occur on any terrain given the right conditions of soil, moisture, and the angle of slope. Integral to the natural process of the earth's surface geology, landslides serve to redistribute soil and sediments in a process that can be in abrupt collapses or in slow gradual slides. Such is the nature of the earth's surface dynamics. Also known as mud flows, debris flows, earth failures, slope failures, etc., they can be triggered by rains, floods, earthquakes, and other natural causes as well as human-made causes, such as grading, terrain cutting and filling, excessive development, etc. Because the factors affecting landslides can be geophysical or human-made, they can occur in developed areas, undeveloped areas, or any area where the terrain was altered for roads, houses, utilities, buildings, and even for lawns in one's backyard. They occur in all fifty states with varying frequency and more than half the states have rates sufficient to be classified as a significant natural hazard."

"text": "Introduction Several definitions exist for the term periglacial . The earliest definitions suggested that these geomorphic environments were located at periphery of past Pleistocene glaciers. In these environments, the landscape is dominantly influenced by frost action. However, frost action also influences landscapes that were not at the margin of ancient glaciers. For this reason, we should use a broader definition of this term. This definition suggests that in a periglacial environment the effects of freezing and thawing drastically modify the ground surface. Types of modification include the displacement of soil materials, migration of groundwater, and the formation of unique landforms. More than a third of the Earth's terrestrial surface can be included in this definition. Permafrost Permafrost is a condition where a layer of soil, sediment, or rock below the ground surface remains frozen for a period greater than a year. Permafrost is not a necessary condition for creating periglacial landforms."

Maars are usually surrounded by tephra deposits that are thickest near the maar and thin with distance. Most maars are only a few hundred to several thousand feet across and are at most a few hundred feet deep. After cinder cones, they are the second most common volcanic landform. Mafic A term used to describe an igneous rock that has a large percentage of dark-colored minerals such as amphibole, pyroxene, and olivine. Also used in reference to the magmas from which these rocks crystallize. Mafic rocks are generally rich in magnesium and iron (think MAgnesium and Ferr IC). Basalt and gabbro are examples of mafic rocks. ( See felsic to contrast. ) Magma Molten rock material that occurs below Earth's surface."

"text": "\"MASS WASTINGCONCEPTThe term mass wasting (sometimes called mass movement) encompasses a broad array of processes whereby earth material is transported down a slope by the force of gravity. It is related closely to weathering, which is the breakdown of minerals or rocks at or near Earth's surface through physical, chemical, or biological processes, and to erosion, the transport of material through a variety of agents, most of them flowing media, such as air or water. Varieties of mass wasting are classified according to the speed and force of the process, from extremely slow creep to very rapid, dramatic slide or fall. Examples of rapid mass wasting include landslides and avalanches, which can be the cause of widespread death and destruction when they occur in populated areas. HOW IT WORKSM OVING E ARTH AND R OCKSIn discussing mass wasting, the area of principal concern is Earth's surface rather than its interior. Thus, mass wasting is related most closely to the realm of geomorphology, a branch of physical geology concerned with the study of landforms, with the forces and processes that have shaped them, and with the description and classification of various physical features on Earth. Though plate tectonics (which involves the movement of giant plates beneath the earth's surface) can influence mass wasting, plate tectonics entails interior processes that humans usually witness only indirectly, by seeing their effects. Mass wasting, on the other hand, often can be observed directly, particularly in its more rapid forms, such as rock fall. There are three general processes whereby a piece of earth material can be moved from a high outcropping to the sea: weathering, mass wasting, or erosion. If mechanical, biological, or chemical processes act on the material, dislodging it from a larger sample of material (e.g., separating a rock from a boulder), it is an example of weathering, which is discussed later in this essay."

"text": "A Definition Many types of mass movement of natural material are included in the general geologic term “landslide.” However, for purposes of these guidelines the term will be restricted to mean those mass movements where there is a distinct surface of rupture or zone of weakness that separates the slide material from more stable underlying material. Such slides involve en masse downward and outward movement of a relatively dry body of rock and/or surficial material in response to gravitational stresses. Other varieties of landslides that are treated separately in these guidelines include: 1) rockfall which involves either direct fall or forward rotation of a rock mass followed by free-fall and/or rolling, bounding, or rapid sliding motions with only intermittent contact with the ground surface; and 2) mud flows and closely related phenomena which involve movement by viscous flow of material with high water content and which may lack a distinct surface of separation between the moving mass and underlying more stable material. Landslides as defined above include two major types: 1) Rotational slides which refer to all landslides having a concave upward, curved failure surface and involving a backward rotation of the original slide mass; and 2) translational slides in which the surface of rupture along which displacement occurs is essentially planar. Either type of landslides can involve various combinations of bedrock, broken bedrock, and unconsolidated surficial material, and the displaced material in either type of slide may be either greatly deformed or nearly intact. Rate of movement of landslides varies from very slow to very rapid. They may be extremely small in extent or measurable in miles. Volumes of material involved may range from a few cubic feet to millions of cubic yards. Landslides result from some change in the physical condition of an unstable slope area (see section of guidelines on potentially unstable slopes)."

"text": "\"Bedrock Geology of the Yosemite Valley Area Yosemite National Park, California To accompany MAP 1-1639 Prepared by N. King Huber and Julie A. Roller From the writings of Frank C. Calkins and other sources Generalized geologic map of the Yosemite National Park area The Geologic Story of Yosemite Valley Published by the United States Geological Survey, 1985 Miscellaneous Geologic Investigations I-1639Preface Frank Calkins' work in Yosemite was preceded by Henry W. Turner, also of, the U. S. Geological Survey, who began mapping the Yosemite and Mount Lyell 30 minute quadrangles in 1897 and laid the foundation that Calkins' work was built on. Although Turner never completed this sizable assignment, he recognized the differing types of plutonic rocks and, for example, named the El Capitan Granite. Calkins mapped the valley and adjacent areas of Yosemite National Park during the period 1913 through 1916, at the same time that Francois Matthes was studying the glacial geology of Yosemite. Calkins summarized the bedrock geology of part of Yosemite in the appendix of Matthes' classic volume \"\"Geologic History of the Yosemite Valley\"\" (1930), but his detailed bedrock map of the valley was never published during his lifetime. The ultimate perfectionist, Calkins never was satisfied that he had all the geologic contacts correctly located or that he understood completely enough the relations between all the geologic units. We still do not understand all of those relations, and although his map is being published now as a historical document, it remains the definitive geologic map of Yosemite Valley. Its publication, although belated, is a fitting memorial to his mapping talent. The map itself remains unchanged but its explanation has been modified to reflect current nomenclature, and the names of some of the geologic units differ slightly from those in Calkins' earlier descriptions. The accompanying text is based in part on Calkins' writings, but also partly from the work of other students of Yosemite geology, notably Frank Dodge, Francois Matthes, Dallas Peck, and Clyde Wahrhaftig. The topographic base used for this map is the original one Matthes prepared from plane-table surveys made in 1905 and 1906 and is a classic in its own right."

Of course geological agents such as water, wind and ice all work with gravity to cause a leveling of land. A block diagram of an earth flow where movement is a combination of slip and flow. Water aids in the downslope movement of surface material in several ways. Water adds weight to the soil; it fills pore spaces of slope material and it exerts pressure which tends to push apart individual grains. This decreases the resistance of the material to movement. Landslide is a general term that is commonly broken down into the more specialized terms such as slump, rockslide, debris slide, mudflow and earthflow. Slump A slump is a downward and outward movement of rock or unconsolidated material moving as a unit or series of units."

A glacial erratic is a piece of rock that differs from the size and type of rock native to the area in which it rests. \"\" Erratics \"\" take their name from the Latin word errare (to wander), and are carried by glacial ice, often over distances of hundreds of kilometres. Erratics can range in size from pebbles to large boulders such as Big Rock (15,000 tonnes or 17,000 short tons) in Alberta. Geologists identify erratics by studying the rocks surrounding the position of the erratic and the composition of the erratic itself. Erratics are significant because: They can be transported by glaciers, and they are thereby one of a series of indicators which mark the path of prehistoric glacier movement. Their lithographic origin can be traced to the parent bedrock, allowing for confirmation of the ice flow route. They can be transported by ice rafting. This allows quantification of the extent of glacial flooding resulting from ice dam failure which release the waters stored in proglacial lakes such as Lake Missoula. Erratics released by ice-rafts that were stranded and subsequently melt, dropping their load, allow characterization of the high-water marks for transient floods in areas like temporary Lake Lewis."

Nelson Mass Movements and Mass Movement Processes This page last updated on 23-Mar-2018Mass Movements and Their Human Impacts Mass Movement is defined as the down slope movement of rock and regolith near the Earth's surface mainly due to the force of gravity. Mass movements are an important part of the erosional process, as it moves material from higher elevations to lower elevations where transporting agents like streams and glaciers can then pick up the material and move it to even lower elevations. Mass movement processes are occurring continuously on all slopes; some act very slowly, others occur very suddenly, often with disastrous results. Any perceptible down slope movement of rock or regolith is often referred to in general terms as a landslide . Landslides, however, can be classified in a much more detailed way that reflects the mechanisms responsible for the movement and the velocity at which the movement occurs. As human populations expand and occupy more and more of the land surface, mass movement processes become more likely to affect humans.

Glaciers slowly deform and flow due to stresses induced by their weight, creating crevasses, seracs, and other distinguishing features. They also abrade rock and debris from their substrate to create landforms such as cirques and moraines. Glaciers form only on land and are distinct from the much thinner sea ice and lake ice that form on the surface of bodies of water. On Earth, 99% of glacial ice is contained within vast ice sheets in the polar regions, but glaciers may be found in mountain ranges on every continent including Oceania's high-latitude oceanic islands such as New Zealand and Papua New Guinea. Between 35°N and 35°S, glaciers occur only in the Himalayas, Andes, Rocky Mountains, a few high mountains in East Africa, Mexico, New Guinea and on Zard Kuh in Iran. ["

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search For other uses, see Erosion (disambiguation). An actively eroding rill on an intensively-farmed field in eastern Germany In earth science, erosion is the action of surface processes (such as water flow or wind) that removes soil, rock, or dissolved material from one location on the Earth's crust, and then transport it away to another location [1] (not to be confused with weathering which involves no movement). This natural process is caused by the dynamic activity of erosive agents, that is, water, ice (glaciers), snow, air (wind), plants, animals, and humans. In accordance with these agents, erosion is sometimes divided into water erosion, glacial erosion, snow erosion, wind (aeolic) erosion, zoogenic erosion, and anthropogenic erosion [2] . The particulate breakdown of rock or soil into clastic sediment is referred to as physical or mechanical erosion; this contrasts with chemical erosion, where soil or rock material is removed from an area by its dissolving into a solvent (typically water), followed by the flow away of that solution. Eroded sediment or solutes may be transported just a few millimetres, or for thousands of kilometres. Natural rates of erosion are controlled by the action of geological weathering geomorphic drivers, such as rainfall; [3] bedrock wear in rivers; coastal erosion by the sea and waves; glacial plucking, abrasion, and scour; areal flooding; wind abrasion; groundwater processes; and mass movement processes in steep landscapes like landslides and debris flows. The rates at which such processes act control how fast a surface is eroded. Typically, physical erosion proceeds fastest on steeply sloping surfaces, and rates may also be sensitive to some climatically-controlled properties including amounts of water supplied (e.g., by rain), storminess, wind speed, wave fetch, or atmospheric temperature (especially for some ice-related processes). Feedbacks are also possible between rates of erosion and the amount of eroded material that is already carried by, for example, a river or glacier. ["

"text": "Diagnosis Symptoms of type 1 diabetes often appear suddenly and are often the reason for checking blood sugar levels. Because symptoms of other types of diabetes and prediabetes come on more gradually or may not be evident, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) has recommended screening guidelines. The ADA recommends that the following people be screened for diabetes: Anyone with a body mass index higher than 25, regardless of age, who has additional risk factors, such as high blood pressure, a sedentary lifestyle, a history of polycystic ovary syndrome, having delivered a baby who weighed more than 9 pounds, a history of diabetes in pregnancy, high cholesterol levels, a history of heart disease, and having a close relative with diabetes. Anyone older than age 45 is advised to receive an initial blood sugar screening, and then, if the results are normal, to be screened every three years thereafter. Tests for type 1 and type 2 diabetes and prediabetes Glycated hemoglobin (A1C) test. This blood test indicates your average blood sugar level for the past two to three months. It measures the percentage of blood sugar attached to hemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying protein in red blood cells. The higher your blood sugar levels, the more hemoglobin you'll have with sugar attached. An A1C level of 6.5 percent or higher on two separate tests indicates that you have diabetes. An A1C between 5.7 and 6.4 percent indicates prediabetes."

Knowing your average blood sugar is a vital part of managing your type 1 diabetes. The hemoglobin A1c test, also commonly referred to as A1c, is a measure of your blood sugar control over the past 2 to 3 months. Here’s a brief overview of the most frequently asked questions about the A1c test: How does the A1c test measure the level of blood sugar? To understand how the test works, we need to first learn about hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is the part of red blood cells that carry oxygen to all parts of our body. Some of the sugar that ends up in our bloodstream from the food we eat attaches to hemoglobin and stays there for the life of the red blood cell, which is usually no longer than 3 months. If you have elevated levels of sugar in your blood, as many with diabetes do, then more sugar will attach to your red blood cells over the short life of those cells. A simple blood test measures the amount of sugar in percentages. How is the A1c test performed?"

"text": "Marjorie Nolan Cohn on behalf of Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics Nutrition & Dietetics Normal A1C level can range from 4.5 to 6 percent. Someone who's had uncontrolled diabetes for a long time can have an A1C level above 9 percent. A1C test is used to diagnose diabetes, an A1C level of 6.5 percent or higher on two separate dates indicates diabetes. A result between 5.7 and 6.4 percent is considered prediabetes, which is high risk of developing diabetes. For most people who have previously diagnosed diabetes, an A1C level of 7 percent or less is a common treatment target. Higher targets may be chosen in some individuals. If your A1C level is above your target, your doctor may recommend a change in your diabetes treatment plan. Remember, the higher your A1C level, the higher your risk of diabetes complications. Stacy Wiegman, Pharm DPharmacy A good score on the A1C test depends on whether you’ve been diagnosed with diabetes. For those who do not have diabetes, a score of less than 5.7% is considered normal, while 5.7% to 6.4% indicates prediabetes and 6.5% or higher means you have diabetes."

Clinical Question Can A1C measurements be used to diagnose diabetes mellitus? Evidence-Based Answer A1C testing is highly specific compared with a two-hour oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) or a fasting plasma glucose test. However, because A1C testing is not sensitive enough to rule out diabetes if levels are normal, the test should not be used for diagnosing diabetes. 1 (Strength of recommendation: C). Evidence Summary The accuracy of A1C testing for the diagnosis of diabetes was first evaluated using pre-1997 World Health Organization (WHO) criteria for a diabetes diagnosis (i.e., OGTT result more than 140 mg per d L [7.8 mmol per L] fasting or more than 200 mg per d L [11.1 mmol per L] at two hours). A meta-analysis 1 (including 10 studies that evaluated A1C levels of 8,984 patients) that used a cutoff (i.e., upper limit of normal) A1C level of 6.3 percent (two standard deviations [SD] above the mean) showed that A1C testing was 66 percent sensitive and 98 percent specific for diagnosing diabetes ( Table 1 1, 2). Based on an assumed diabetes prevalence rate of 6 percent in the general population (i.e., persons without known diabetes), 63 percent of patients with an A1C level more than 6.3 percent would have diabetes (positive predictive value [PPV] = 63 percent).

Symptoms Causes Risk factors Diagnosis Treatments Complications Prevention Prediabetes If you receive a prediabetes, it means you have a higher-than-normal blood sugar level that’s not high enough to be diagnostic for diabetes. If you don’t get treatment for it, prediabetes can lead to type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), prediabetes is reversible. Treatment may include lifestyle modifications, such as diet and exercise, and medication. Type 2 diabetes can develop within 10 years if you have prediabetes and don’t make lifestyle changes, says the Mayo Clinic. The first step for managing prediabetes is understanding what a prediabetes diagnosis means. Read on to learn more about this diagnosis and what you can do. Other names Your doctor may refer to prediabetes as the following:impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), which means a higher-than-normal blood sugar after a mealimpaired fasting glucose (IFG), which means a higher-than-normal blood sugar in the morning before eatinginsulin resistance, which means your body can’t use insulin effectively Insulin resistance leads to a buildup of sugar in the blood.

Further, they noted, using oral medications alone in patients with high Hb A1c levels has several advantages, including weight loss and better glycemic control, which are not observed in insulin-based regimens. “All the patients included start with Hb A1c above 9% and each of them came down to less than 7.0%,” said study author Rameck Hunt, MD who with Rutgers-Robert Wood Johnson Medical School in North Brunswick, New Jersey. For the past 30 years, the incidence of new-onset type 2 diabetes has been steadily rising in the United States. The AACE/ACE guidelines state that insulin should be started in symptomatic patients if the patient has an Hb A1c level above 9%. However, Hunt said insulin therapy has several adverse effects, such as weight gain. In addition, he said patient resistance to initiating insulin as well as compliance can be issues. Research has now shown that several oral medications are extremely effective in glucose control without the added adverse effects associated with insulin therapy. Some of these newer medications sensitize insulin without promoting weight gain. In fact, they promote weight loss, according to Hunt."

The Hb A1c (hemoglobin A1C) test measures how much glucose has become attached to a protein called hemoglobin in your red blood cells. Because the glucose sticks to the hemoglobin for several months, it provides a long-term picture of your blood glucose control. Ideally, your results should be below 7%. Stacy Wiegman, Pharm DPharmacy The hemoglobin A1C (Hb A1C) test is a way to get an average of how well blood glucose (sugar) has been controlled for the past three months. The test measures the percentage of hemoglobin (red blood cells) that has been glycated, or \"\"hooked up,\"\" with glucose. The normal role of hemoglobin in red blood cells is to carry oxygen throughout the body. But when blood glucose levels increase, some of that glucose ends up sticking to hemoglobin.

The A1C test goes by many other names, including glycated hemoglobin, glycosylated hemoglobin, hemoglobin A1C and Hb A1c. The A1C test result reflects your average blood sugar level for the past two to three months. Specifically, the A1C test measures what percentage of your hemoglobin — a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen — is coated with sugar (glycated). The higher your A1C level, the poorer your blood sugar control and the higher your risk of diabetes complications. Why it's done An international committee of experts from the American Diabetes Association, the European Association for the Study of Diabetes and the International Diabetes Federation, recommend that the A1C test be the primary test used to diagnose prediabetes, type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes. After a diabetes diagnosis, the A1C test is used to monitor your diabetes treatment plan. Since the A1C test measures your average blood sugar level for the past two to three months instead of your blood sugar level at a specific point in time, it is a better reflection of how well your diabetes treatment plan is working overall. Your doctor will likely use the A1C test when you're first diagnosed with diabetes. This also helps establish a baseline A1C level."

A1C TEST RISKSBlood drawing risks are slight and include lightheadedness or excessive bleeding. Because veins vary in size from one person to the next and from one side of the body to the other side, so the difficulty of blood drawing will also vary. A1C TEST PREPARATION REQUIREDBecause the A1C test is a simple blood test, there's no need to fast or anything before the test.

Hyperglycemia is a hallmark sign of diabetes (both type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes) and prediabetes. Diabetes is the most common cause of high blood sugar. Other conditions that can cause high blood sugar are pancreatitis, Cushing's syndrome, unusual hormone-secreting tumors, pancreatic cancer, certain medications, and severe illnesses. The main symptoms of hyperglycemia are increased thirst and a frequent need to urinate. Severely elevated glucose levels can result in a medical emergency like diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) or hyperglycemic hyperosmolar nonketotic syndrome (HHNS, also referred to as hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state). Insulin is the treatment of choice for people with type 1 diabetes and for life-threatening increases in glucose levels. People with type 2 diabetes may be managed with a combination of different oral and injectable medications. Hyperglycemia due to medical conditions other than diabetes is generally treated by treating the underlying condition responsible for the elevated glucose.

Fogoros, MDUpdated March 14, 2018Share Pin Email Print Andrew Brookes/Cultura/Getty Images The A1C test (also known as Hb A1C, hemoglobin A1c, glycated hemoglobin or glycosylated hemoglobin) is a good general measure of diabetes care. While conventional home glucose monitoring measures a person’s blood sugar at a given moment, A1C levels indicate a person’s average blood glucose level over the past two-to-three months. How Does it Work? You can retrieve an A1C test through regular blood draw. Many doctors offices also have A1C testing machines and are able to retrieve the result with a small drop of blood that is obtained from pricking the finger with a lancet. You do not have to be fasting to receive an A1C test which makes it more convenient and more likely to be done. Hemoglobin A, a protein found inside red blood cells, carries oxygen throughout the body. When there is glucose in the bloodstream, it can actually stick (glycate) to the hemoglobin A protein. More glucose in the blood means that more glucose sticks to hemoglobin and a higher percent of hemoglobin proteins become glycated."

Glucose (a type of sugar) molecules in the blood normally become stuck to hemoglobin molecules - this means the hemoglobin has become glycosylated (also referred to as hemoglobin A1c, or Hb A1c). As a person's blood sugar becomes higher, more of the person's hemoglobin becomes glycosylated. The glucose remains attached to the hemoglobin for the life of the red blood cell, or about 2 to 3 months. A blood test can measure the amount of glycosylated hemoglobin in the blood.

People with diabetes used to depend only on urine tests or daily finger sticks to measure their blood sugars. These tests are accurate, but only in the moment. As an overall measurement of blood sugar control, they’re very limited. This is because blood sugar can vary wildly depending on the time of day, activity levels, and even hormone changes. Some people may have high blood sugars at 3 a.m. and be totally unaware of it. Once A1C tests became available in the 1980s, they became an important tool in controlling diabetes. A1C tests measure average blood glucose over the past two to three months. So even if you have a high fasting blood sugar, your overall blood sugars may be normal, or vice versa. A normal fasting blood sugar may not eliminate the possibility of type 2 diabetes."

In this study, we examined the effects of chicory root extract on blood glucose, lipid metabolism, and fecal properties in 47 healthy adult participants in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. The participants were divided into a test group that drank chicory root extract and a placebo group that drank nonchicory root extract (ingesting 300 m L daily for 4 weeks). We performed hematological examinations and body composition measurements, and administered a visual analog scale (VAS) questionnaire for fecal properties at the baseline (Week 0) and after the intervention (Week 4) for the two groups. Although no significant differences in fasting plasma glucose or insulin were observed, hemoglobin A1c was found to decrease by ingesting chicory root extract. No intergroup differences in the levels of lipid metabolism parameters were observed."

"text": "Print Overview The A1C test is a common blood test used to diagnose type 1 and type 2 diabetes and then to gauge how well you're managing your diabetes. The A1C test goes by many other names, including glycated hemoglobin, glycosylated hemoglobin, hemoglobin A1C and Hb A1c. The A1C test result reflects your average blood sugar level for the past two to three months. Specifically, the A1C test measures what percentage of your hemoglobin — a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen — is coated with sugar (glycated). The higher your A1C level, the poorer your blood sugar control and the higher your risk of diabetes complications. Why it's done An international committee of experts from the American Diabetes Association, the European Association for the Study of Diabetes and the International Diabetes Federation, recommend that the A1C test be the primary test used to diagnose prediabetes, type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes. After a diabetes diagnosis, the A1C test is used to monitor your diabetes treatment plan. Since the A1C test measures your average blood sugar level for the past two to three months instead of your blood sugar level at a specific point in time, it is a better reflection of how well your diabetes treatment plan is working overall. Your doctor will likely use the A1C test when you're first diagnosed with diabetes. This also helps establish a baseline A1C level."

This test can be used for diagnosis and monitoring of hemoglobin A1c levels in diabetic patients. Since A1C test reflects the average amount of glucose for the past 2 to 3 months, it is opined to be more reliable than conventional blood glucose test. Physicians are increasingly prescribing Hb A1c test to their patients which will lead to an increase in the test volume. Moreover, rising diabetes incidence rate is a major driver for the Hb A1c testing market. With growing awareness about prevention and management of diabetes, the demand for Hb A1c testing devices will rise rapidly especially in the Asia-Pacific, Latin America, Middle East and African regions. Moreover, advent of these devices for the diagnosis of diabetes will further bolster the demand for these devices in future. For instance, approval for the COBAS INTEGRA 800 Tina-quant Hb A1c Dx assay, in 2013and Abbott’s ARCHITECT Clinical Chemistry Hemoglobin A1c (Hb A1c) test approved in 2014 for the diagnosis of diabetes were the major steps in the hemoglobin A1c testing industry. With this diagnostic tools, physicians can combat the rising incidence of diabetes with timely and appropriate actions in identifying and managing diabetes."

"text": "\"Prediabetes & Insulin Resistance What is insulin? Insulin is a hormone made in the pancreas, an organ located behind the stomach. The pancreas contains clusters of cells called islets. Beta cells within the islets make insulin and release it into the blood. Insulin plays a major role in metabolism—the way the body uses digested food for energy. The digestive tract breaks down carbohydrates—sugars and starches found in many foods—into glucose. Glucose is a form of sugar that enters the bloodstream. With the help of insulin, cells throughout the body absorb glucose and use it for energy. Insulin's Role in Blood Glucose Control When blood glucose levels rise after a meal, the pancreas releases insulin into the blood. Insulin and glucose then travel in the blood to cells throughout the body."

A1C provides an indication of average blood glucose control for the past 2-3 months. Hemoglobin is part of the red blood cells and binds to glucose. The A1C complex is formed when the glucose in the blood binds irreversibly (glycates) to hemoglobin. The higher the glucose level in the blood, the more that binds to the hemoglobin. Therefore, A1C values are proportional to the amount of glucose in the blood. The A1C result is in percentage (%) units in the United States or mmol/mol units in other countries. A1C reflects the amount of the hemoglobin that is glycated."

You have a good understanding of how food and exercise habits influence your readings. You’ve been a good patient and have taken your metformin, injected your insulin or diligently stuck to your diabetic diet. It has been three months and you are scheduled for a follow up appointment with your doctor to review your test results. But are you still wondering, what does the Alc blood test actually mean? What is the A1c blood test for diabetes? Hemoglobin (Hb) is a protein within your red blood cells that transports oxygen to tissues in your body. Hemoglobin A1c (Hba1c) is a variation of that hemoglobin molecule and it is measured in diabetic patients because Hb A1c attracts glucose molecules. As blood glucose levels rise, hemoglobin A1c becomes glycosylated, which means that sugar particles stick to Hb A1c. The amount of glycosylation, or attached glucose molecules, can be measured by the a1c blood test."

Other names for this test are glycosylated hemoglobin, glycohemoglobin, hemoglobin A1c, and Hb A1c. How the A1c Test Works The glucose that the body doesn't store or use for energy stays in the blood and attaches to red blood cells, which live in the bloodstream for about 4 months. The lab test measures the amount of glucose attached to the red blood cells. The amount is the A1c and is shown as a percentage. Your A1c number can give you and your health care team a good idea of how well you've controlled your blood sugar over the previous 2 to 3 months. When you get your A1c result from a Kaiser Permanente lab, you'll also see another number called the estimated Average Glucose, or e AG. Understanding the e AGYour estimated Average Glucose (e AG) number is calculated from the result of your A1c test. Like the A1c, the e AG shows what your average blood sugars have been over the previous 2 to 3 months. Instead of a percentage, the e AG is in the same units (mg/dl) as your blood glucose meter."

It was, in a sense, the first episode of a two-part story, followed by Let's Kill Hitler. It revealed the identity of River Song, naming her as Melody Pond, the daughter of Amy Pond and Rory Williams. The midseries finale also introduced the Headless Monks, a militaristic faction of the Silence, and formally introduced the ubiquitous \"\"Eye Patch Lady\"\" as the malevolent Madame Kovarian. It also showed the extent to which the Doctor had become feared and the lengths to which those who feared him were willing to go to be rid of him. Equally so, it revealed how easily the Doctor could assemble a small army and counter an enemy's force, and the severity of his anger when someone he deeply cared about was tormented to the point that irreversible damage was done to their life. Further notable moments were the reappearances of several of the Doctor's allies, enemies, and neutral acquaintances - and the introduction of several previously unseen friends. Three individuals who debuted in this story would later become known as the Paternoster Gang as they continued to make appearances as a collective: Madame Vastra, her lover Jenny Flint, and the Sontaran Strax, the last of which died in this episode, but had his death reversed in the mini-episode The Battle of Demon's Run: Two Days Later . This story marked the first time that the BBC Wales series had not broadcast an uninterrupted thirteen-episode run for a series of Doctor Who. As a result of its status as a midseries finale, the length and allotted run time of the episode was extended to 50 minutes."

Today, we take a journey through the life and work of Yip Harburg, the Broadway lyricist who wrote such hits as “Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?” and who put the music into The Wizard of Oz. Born into poverty on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, Harburg always included a strong social and political component to his work, fighting racism and poverty. A lifelong socialist, Harburg was blacklisted and hounded throughout much of his life. We speak with Harburg’s son, Ernie Harburg, about the music and politics of his father. Then we take an in-depth look at The Wizard of Oz, and hear a medley of Harburg’s Broadway songs and the politics of the times in which they were created. ["

Open Document Names in \"\"A Pair of Tickets\"\" In Amy Tan's \"\"A Pair of Tickets\"\" (the last chapter of The Joy Luck Club), the understanding of the importance of names is the key to truly apprehend a sacred relationship between mother (\"\"Suyuen\"\") and daughters (June or \"\"Jing-Mei\"\", \"\"Chwun Yu\"\" and \"\"Chwun Hwa\"\"). To understand the story as a whole, it is necessary for us to know the meanings of their names. The mother and daughters' names each bears its individual meaning, but all these names are indeed \"\"intertwined\"\" into a deeper relationship among each other. It is through a deeper understanding of these Chinese characters' names that opens our eyes (readers from different cultural background) to see how mother and daughters are strongly attached emotionally. In Chinese culture, names are not merely \"\"labels\"\" to distinguish one from the other nor are they used as \"\"mediums\"\" that \"\"reflect\"\" one's identity and individuality; names represent all the long-term greetings and expectations from parents to children. A name is the essence of a person, and it is a gift (the first gift) from parents to be carried for the rest of one's life. * A person's name is like a title of a book or poem: we use a title to identify the nature of the book and its \"\"essence\"\", while we use a name to identify a person and his/her individuality. Chinese name is distinctive in a sense that each name has a story behind it, e.g. June's mother named her twin daughters in China \"\"Chwun Yu\"\" and \"\"Chwun Hwa\"\" since they were born in spring (\"\"Chwun\"\"), \"\"Yu\"\" (rain) was given to the first born and \"\"Hwa\"\" (flower) to the second which indicate their sequence of birth (\"\"rain comes before flower\"\": par. 88); furthermore, rain and flower are nature's elements that exist for one and the other, indicating these twin daughters would stay inseparable. In this story, Tan has not left out the importance of names which is essential in our understanding of the meaning and purpose of her writing."

She was 31. Bleuel, a Wisconsin native who fought bravely through her life to overcome mental health challenges, founded Project Semicolon in 2013. It represented her resolution to travel a path of help and healing after a young life that she described in her writing as traumatically painful: physical and emotional abuse from the age of 6, sexual assault at 13, the suicide of her father when she was 18. “ I kept on fighting,” she wrote in a short bio at the Project Semicolon website. “ I didn’t have a lot of people in my corner, but the ones I did have kept me going. In my 20 years of personally struggling with mental health, I experienced many stigmas associated with it. Through the pain came inspiration and a deeper love for others. … Please remember there is hope for a better tomorrow.” Project Semicolon, which seeks to inspire people in their personal struggles to continue living, takes its name from the idea that a semicolon is a punctuation mark that means a sentence isn’t over yet — that there’s still more to come, that every moment offers the possibility of a new beginning."

A broadcast domain can be within the same LAN segment or it can be bridged to other LAN segments. In terms of current popular technologies, any computer connected to the same Ethernet repeater or switch is a member of the same broadcast domain. Further, any computer connected to the same set of inter-connected switches/repeaters is a member of the same broadcast domain. Routers and other higher-layer devices form boundaries between broadcast domains. This is as compared to a collision domain, which would be all nodes on the same set of inter-connected repeaters, divided by switches and learning bridges. Collision domains are generally smaller than, and contained within, broadcast domains. While some layer two network devices are able to divide the collision domains, broadcast domains are only divided by layer 3 network devices such as routers or layer 3 switches.

It contains the following sections:• What Is a VLAN?• VLAN Colors• Why Implement VLANs?• Communicating Between VLANs• VLAN Interoperability• Designing Switched VLANs What Is a VLAN? A VLAN is a switched network that is logically segmented on an organizational basis, by functions, project teams, or applications rather than on a physical or geographical basis. For example, all workstations and servers used by a particular workgroup team can be connected to the same VLAN, regardless of their physical connections to the network or the fact that they might be intermingled with other teams. Reconfiguration of the network can be done through software rather than by physically unplugging and moving devices or wires. A VLAN can be thought of as a broadcast domain that exists within a defined set of switches. A VLAN consists of a number of end systems, either hosts or network equipment (such as bridges and routers), connected by a single bridging domain. The bridging domain is supported on various pieces of network equipment; for example, LAN switches that operate bridging protocols between them with a separate bridge group for each VLAN."

Overview of VLANs A VLAN is a group of devices on one or more LANs that are configured to communicate as if they were attached to the same wire, when in fact they are located on a number of different LAN segments. Because VLANs are based on logical instead of physical connections, they are extremely flexible. VLANs define broadcast domains in a Layer 2 network. A broadcast domain is the set of all devices that will receive broadcast frames originating from any device within the set. Broadcast domains are typically bounded by routers because routers do not forward broadcast frames. Layer 2 switches create broadcast domains based on the configuration of the switch. Switches are multiport bridges that allow you to create multiple broadcast domains."

STP is designed to prevent loops in a switch/bridged topology to eliminate the endless propagation of broadcast around the loop. With VLANs, there are multiple broadcast domains to be considered. Because each broadcast domain is like a unique bridged internetwork, you must consider how STP will operate. The 802.1Q standard defines one unique Spanning Tree instance to be used by all VLANs in the network. STP runs on the Native VLAN so that it can communicate with both 802.1Q and non-802.1Q compatible switches."

By Dan Popescu On June 10, 2013 · 3 Comments In this article I will talk about the differences between two of the most common networking devices, routers and switches. You may already be somewhat familiar with these devices, even if you are not working in an IT department. Home internet connections became so common these days that we are practically addicted to them without even realizing we are. Because technology evolved so fast, newer, faster and cheaper networking devices have been developed to fulfill our needs. Many of you may own a router to connect to the Internet. If you are an IT professional, you probably know how network devices work, but for a casual user, these things may sound a bit like science fiction. If you've ever been curious about how routers and switches work, this is a perfect opportunity to learn about their role and functionality. Protocol Stacks and Layers Two main protocol stacks are used in today’s communications, OSI and TCP/IP. These designs define the rules that manage data communications inside computer networks."

The document classifies common network slowness symptoms, and outlines approaches to problem diagnosis and resolution. Prerequisites Requirements There are no specific requirements for this document. Components Used This document is not restricted to specific software and hardware versions. Conventions For more information on document conventions, see the Cisco Technical Tips Conventions. Common Causes of Slow Intra VLAN and Inter VLAN Connectivity The symptoms of slow connectivity on a VLAN can be caused by multiple factors on different network layers. Commonly the network speed issue may be occurring on a lower level, but symptoms can be observed on a higher level as the problem masks itself under the term \"\"slow VLAN\"\". To clarify, this document defines the following new terms: \"\"slow collision domain\"\", \"\"slow broadcast domain\"\" (in other words, slow VLAN), and \"\"slow inter VLAN forwarding\"\". These are defined in the section Three Categories of Causes, below. In the following scenario (illustrated in the network diagram below), there is a Layer 3 (L3) switch performing inter VLAN routing between the server and client VLANs."

Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. ( May 2013) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)In telecommunications, a scrambler is a device that transposes or inverts signals or otherwise encodes a message at the sender's side to make the message unintelligible at a receiver not equipped with an appropriately set descrambling device. Whereas encryption usually refers to operations carried out in the digital domain, scrambling usually refers to operations carried out in the analog domain. Scrambling is accomplished by the addition of components to the original signal or the changing of some important component of the original signal in order to make extraction of the original signal difficult. Examples of the latter might include removing or changing vertical or horizontal sync pulses in television signals; televisions will not be able to display a picture from such a signal. Some modern scramblers are actually encryption devices, the name remaining due to the similarities in use, as opposed to internal operation. In telecommunications and recording, a scrambler (also referred to as a randomizer) is a device that manipulates a data stream before transmitting."

"text": "\"Home Networking Dissecting Cisco's Fabric Path Ethernet technology Cisco's data center network architecture has many vital features and moving parts I'm not a robotre CAPTCHAPrivacy - Terms By Jim Duffy Managing Editor, Network World |Mar 29, 2012 4:42 PM PTRelated Readying Ethernet for the converged data center Cisco Fabric Path enables faster, simpler, flatter data center networks Figuring out the data center fabric maze Video How does SD-WAN work? Cisco 's Fabric Path data center Ethernet technology is designed to combine traditional, Spanning Tree-based Ethernet with a next-generation architecture that uses a link-state protocol to allow for multiple active paths. Deploying multiple active paths in a data center network is required to flatten the infrastructure to reduce latency and better support traffic flow between server racks. The following attempts to boil down the key aspects of Fabric Path on a Cisco Nexus 7000 core data center switch, as described in a Cisco whitepaper. Several features of Fabric Path are vital to its operation, including:• Replacing Spanning Tree with a link-state protocol; [ Don’t miss customer reviews of top remote access tools and see the most powerful Io T companies. | Get daily insights by signing up for Network World newsletters. ]• Interacting with Spanning Tree domains;• Use of virtual Port Channel (v PC) to activate parallel paths and remove Spanning Tree blocks;• Defining processes as virtual device contexts ( VDC );• Conversational MAC address learning and use of switch IDs (SID), and;• VLAN designations More: Critical milestones in Cisco history A-MAZE-ING: Figuring out the data center fabric maze Use of a link-state protocol Using or replacing Spanning Tree with a link-state protocol is intended to overcome the limitations of Spanning Tree in data center and cloud environments - chiefly, the inability to use multiple active parallel paths in an Ethernet network. Spanning Tree allows only one path to be active between any two nodes and blocks the rest, which is unsuitable for low latency, Ethernet-based fabrics in data centers and cloud environments. Virtually every vendor addressing the data center fabric switching market proposes augmenting or replacing Spanning Tree with a link-state protocol, and standards like TRILL and Shortest Path Bridging are being defined to do just that. Brocade uses TRILL in the data plane of its VCS architecture but the control plane is based on Fabric Shortest Path First, an ANSI standard used by all Fibre Channel SAN fabrics as the link-state routing protocol."

It allows VLAN information to be propagated across your switched network, providing a consistent VLAN configuration in your network. This process makes it easy to add, change, and delete VLANs as well as to add new devices to the network because your VLAN information is automatically propagated by switches that understand VTP on their trunk ports. This removes any possibility of inconsistencies between VLAN configurations that might result in security violations or errors. These problems can occur when VLANs become cross-connected as duplicate VLAN names are configured or when VLANs become internally disconnected because they're incorrectly mapped between different LAN media types. NOTEOnly VLAN configuration information is shared via VTP; port information, such as which port belongs to which VLAN, is not shared. VTP Advantages Because many networks have mixed media or are going through a migration to a new backbone media topology, such as Gigabit Ethernet or ATM, a special protocol is needed to provide compatibility for the implementation of VLANs within these mixed-media topologies. Many networks today employ Ethernet to the desktop, utilizing Fast Ethernet as a backbone solution. You must first set up trunk connections for VTP to take place."

"text": "Broad Cast Domain A broadcast domain is a logical division of a computer network, in which all nodes can reach each other by broadcast at the data link layer. A broadcast domain can be within the same LAN segment or it can be bridged to other LAN segments. A broadcast domain encompasses a set of devices for when one of the devices sends a broadcast, all the other devices receive a copy of the broadcast. For example, switches flood broadcasts and multicasts on all ports. Because broadcast frames are sent out all ports, a switch creates a single broadcast domain. Any computer connected to the same repeater or switch is a member of the same broadcast domain. Further, any computer connected to the same set of inter-connected switches/repeaters is a member of the same broadcast domain. Routers and other higher-layer devices form boundaries between broadcast domains. This is as compared to a collision domain, which would be all nodes on the same set of inter-connected repeaters, divided by switches and learning bridges. Collision domains are generally smaller than broadcast domains."

"text": "Cisco OTV 101 (Legacy Multicast Mode): MAC Learning Process Walk Ken Matlock May 13, 2013What is OTV? Overlay Transport Virtualization (OTV) is a Cisco-proprietary protocol suite that allows us to extend Layer 2 between datacenters with Layer 3 boundaries in between. It works by encapsulating the L2 packets into L3 multicast packets and sending them out to all other OTV AED’s (Authoritative Edge Devices, used for loop prevention). The legacy OTV implementation uses IP Multicast to accomplish this. Starting in the 3.9S IOS-XE code (released April 2013), we are now able to use an Adjacency Server, and transport OTV traffic across standard IP unicast. ( This post covers the legacy Multicast mode)OTV takes advantage of ISIS as an underlying mechanism to establish ‘router’ adjacencies with everyone else in the Bridge Domain, and uses the ISIS TLV (Type/Length/Value) field to set up a ‘MAC Routing table’ to know what MAC addresses can be found across which AED’s. OTV is strictly a Layer 2 transport protocol; everything it does is based off the MAC addresses, just like any other switch. Think of an OTV Bridge group as one large virtual Ethernet segment. OTV currently is only supported by Cisco ASR1000, ASR9000, and Cisco Nexus 7000 series chassis, running IOS-XE or NX-OS. From what I gather, there are no current plans to port OTV code to standard IOS."

Repeaters used to connect two or more Ethernet segments of any media type, and to provide signal amplification for a segment to be extended. Ethernet is subject to the \"\"5-4-3\"\" rule regarding repeater placement, meaning we can only have five segments connected using four repeaters with only three segments capable of accommodating hosts. Bridges and Switches Layer 2 of the OSI The data link layer (based on the Ethernet packet / mac address) Bridges used to connect different networks types cannot filter out broadcast traffic Bridges segment collision domains. Only 2 networks can be linked with a bridge. Bridges are layer 2 devices (Data Link layer) which are usually used to segment a LAN into two segments. Bridges examine frames, keeping local traffic local, and forwarding any non-local traffic. Each port on a bridge is a separate collision domain i.e. ports A, B, C here. Important points to remember about bridges: each segment connected to a bridge is in a separate collision domain; all segments on a bridge are in the same broadcast domain; and bridges forward all broadcast messages. A Collision Domain A collision domain is any area where a collision can theoretically take place, so only one device can transmit at a time in a collision domain."

"text": "\"List of non-tollfree reservations numbers for US-based airlines Thread Tools Search this Thread Feb 25, 07, 7:57 pm # 1crhptic Original Poster Join Date: Feb 2001Location: Washington DC USAPosts: 2,570List of non-tollfree reservations numbers for US-based airlines I'm not sure why, but I always thought these might be a handy thing to have, so I started collecting them a couple of years ago. So far I've been able to compile most of them, but there are still a few missing. It's strange how some airlines (generally those with a very strong \"\"hometown\"\" presence in just one city...i.e. Air Tran, Midwest, Frontier) have this information freely available on their website, while others treat it as a closely guarded secret. For those airlines where I couldn't find a number on the website, I'd call the 800 number and ask. Some gave it to me, some didn't, and some claimed there wasn't one. I hope this is a useful reference for folks. And if you can help me fill in the missing ones, I'd appreciate it. Thanks! Correct, verified as working: Air Tran (770) 994-8258 Frontier (303) 371-7000 Jet Blue (801) 365-2525 Midwest (414) 570-7000 United (312) 364-1989 US Airways (480) 693-6701 Problematic: American - according to 2 different phone reps, they do not have a non-toll-free reservations #."

"text": "For the next installment in my ongoing series on the current elite status programs for the major airlines that started with Delta and American Airlines AAdvantage Gold status, we’re going to take a look at American’s mid-tier status, Platinum. American Airlines Platinum level. Qualification Platinum is the middle of American’s three elite status tiers. To achieve it, you must fly 50,000 qualifying miles or 60 segments or earn 50,000 points in a calendar year (January 1-December 31). You begin receiving elite benefits immediately upon qualification, and as long as you meet the standard requirements, your benefits will last through the end of the next membership year, which runs from March 1 through the final day of February of the following year. So if you earned your Platinum status now, it would be good through February 28, 2015, but if you earned it very early next year like in March, it would be good through February 29, 2016. You earn to earn 50,000 miles to qualify for Platinum status. The Difference Between Elite Qualifying Miles And Points Unlike most airlines that award either Elite Qualifying Miles (based on how far you fly and in what class of service, which generally benefits long-haul flyers) and/or Elite Qualifying Segments (number of individual flights you take, which is better for frequent short-haul flyers), American has a third qualification system, which is heavily weighted towards premium fares: Elite Qualifying points. Like most people, I generally qualify for my American elite status by EQMs because I fly on long routes as cheaply as possible. However, if you fly higher fare classes, it’s worth keeping track of your points."

American Airlines introduced the first electronic booking system (called Sabre), employed the first female pilot (Bonnie Tiburzi in 1973), paved the way for loyalty clubs by operating the first airport lounge (its Admirals Club in 1939), and was the first airline to successfully turn a profit based solely on passenger travel (independent of postal-service transport to make bank. Serving four continents (North America, South America, Europe, and Asia), American Airlines operates a hub-and-spoke system with five central American airports: Chicago's O'Hare International Airport (ORD), Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), Miami International Airport (MIA), New York City's John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK), and Dallas/Ft. Worth International Airport (DFW). The central hub and headquarters of American Airlines is located Dallas/Ft. Worth International Airport. With an average age of nearly 15 years per jet , the fleet of aircraft operated by American Airlines is comprised of 616 aircraft, most of which are from either Airbus and Boeing. American Airlines employs approximately 7,500 pilots. Alongside British Airways, Canadian Airlines, Cathay Pacific, and Qantas, among others, American Airlines is part of the airline alliance network called Oneworld.

Today, TPG Contributor Richard Kerr offers some daydream material with a look at some of the best AAdvantage awards redemptions out there. It’s a dynamic time for the American Airlines AAdvantage program. There has been a lot of change lately, which can make anyone with AAdvantage miles nervous, but there’s no need to worry or write off your AAdvantage account balance. It’s still one of the most useful loyalty currencies out there. American is now in the final stages of its merger with US Airways, and there are still more updates on the horizon. At a date in the second quarter of this year (still to be determined), AAdvantage miles and US Airways Dividend miles will be combined, resulting in a lot of new AAdvantage millionaires."

With this post, I'll go into some detail as to why we rank these credit card offers the way we do, and separate them into the best ones for signup bonuses and the best ones for everyday spend. We do receive referral credit for some of the cards listed, but not all of them. I'll also aim to keep this blog post up to date to track changing offers and spend bonuses. Overwhelmed?http://travelsort.com/blog/beginners-guide-to-miles-points Check out our Beginner's Guide to Miles and Points. Note that there are sometimes targeted offers that are better than public offers, such as a 150K AMEX Business Platinum offer, so make sure to check your email and even junk mail regularly. Also note that the value of miles and points varies enormously depending on how you plan to use them. Someone redeeming for U. S. domestic flights that are normally inexpensive will typically get much less face value out of the same number of miles or points than someone redeeming for an international first class award ticket, which could have a retail value of $20,000 or more. If you only fly inexpensive domestic flights you may be best off with a cash back card."

We may receive compensation when you click on links to those products. For an explanation of our Advertising Policy, visit this page. For today’s Travel Tuesday Top 10, we take a look at some the most dreaded fees airlines tack onto the flying experience for everything from changing tickets to checking bags, and how you can get out of them: Most airlines will charge $25 for the first checked bag.1. Checked Baggage Fees: Although they’re not the most expensive, the fees most of us have to pay to check luggage is one of the most pervasive and annoying aspects of traveling today. Most of the legacy airlines charge for checked baggage which can easily be $25 for the first bag. The good news is this is a relatively easy fee to get out of. Elite status (even the lowest tier) will waive at the first checked bag, and then higher-level elites will get two or even three checked bags free. The other way is to avoid paying is by having an airline’s co-branded credit card since many will waive the first checked bag fee as well. On Delta, the Gold Delta Sky Miles Credit Card from American Express, Platinum Delta Sky Miles Credit Card from American Express, and Delta Reserve Card allow cardmembers to check their first bag for free on all Delta and Delta Connection flights and the benefit applies to up to 9 people traveling in the cardmember’s reservation."

Community user3 Posts19 December 2013 at 7:47am Hi there, I have been using my car for business purposes. My employee contract states \"\"You may be required to use your own personal vehicle to attend client meetings and will be reimbursed for mileage at the standard legislative rate required\"\". As such, I have claimed for expenses at the IRD standard rate of 77c. My employer has told me that they will only reimburse at a rate of 62c. They said this is based on an average of rates compiled from Public service, AA and IRD and that they 'exclude the depreciation component of the allowance as we do not reimburse for the capital cost, only the operating costs.' Is this correct? I called the IRD and they said it should be 77c but wanted to check with AA too."

[ 3] Carbondale is located approximately 15 miles due northeast of the city of Scranton in Northeastern Pennsylvania. The population was 8,891 at the 2010 census. The land area that became Carbondale was developed by William and Maurice Wurts, the founders of the Delaware and Hudson Canal Company, during the rise of the anthracite coal mining industry [3] in the early 19th century. Carbondale was the site of the first deep vein anthracite coal mine [4] in the United States. It was also a major terminal of the Delaware and Hudson Railroad. Like many other cities and towns in the region, Carbondale has struggled with the demise of the once-prominent coal mining industry that had once made the region a haven for immigrants seeking work so many decades ago. Immigrants from Wales, England, Scotland, Ireland, Italy and from throughout continental Europe came to Carbondale in the course of the nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries to work in the anthracite and railroading industries.

The story of its founding closely resembles that of its neighbors along the railway such as Muenster. In 1891, Anton and August Flusche arranged for transfer of 9,300 acres (38 km 2) along the railway to found a new town, which they named after a local judge. They attracted several German Catholic settlers in the following years. The date of Lindsay's founding is officially recognized as March 25, 1892, when the first mass was held; however, Lindsay was not formally incorporated until 1959. The city has maintained some German traditions, including an annual Oktoberfest. As is typical in the region, the main industries are farming, principally dairy farming, and oil production."

Originally deployed in secret by the UNSC Navy towards the end of the Human-Covenant war, she would be refitted with technology that would add scientific and diplomatic endeavours to her capabilities once the war had ended. At nearly 5.7 km from stem to stern and incorporating appropriated and reverse engineered Covenant and even Forerunner technology, the Infinity is the largest vessel in the UNSC Navy by a good margine as well as their most advanced. The Inifnity also serves as a training facility to numerous Spartan IV fireteams. Carrying over 17,000 personnel & troops plus Spartans in addition to hundreds of dropships, dozens of interceptors, and ten internally docked Strident-class heavy frigates, the Infinity can single-handedly deploy a small fleet or army into combat at a moment's notice. The Infinity isn't just a troop transport, however, and boasts of tremendous defensive and offensive capabilities of her own far exceeding that of any UNSC vessel before her and is the first UNSC vessel to be equipped with energy shielding similar to that of Covenant ships. She is currently captained by Thomas Lasky and the primary shipboard AI is Roland, a Smart AI whose name and avatar are based on Roland Beamont, a British fighter pilot during World War II.

[ 7] As a fortified city, the city was of strategic military and political significance. Although a direct Fiefdom of the Holy Roman Emperor, the city obtained a municipal charter; the acquisition of Breda, through marriage, by the House of Nassau ensured that Breda would be at the center of political and social life in the Low Countries. Breda had a population of 183,456 in 2017; the metropolitan area had a population of 324,812. It is part of the Brabantse Stedenrij.

"text": "Lava, gas, and other hazards The list of hazards associated with volcanic eruptions is long and varied: lava flows, explosions, toxic gas clouds, ash falls, pyroclastic flows, avalanches, tsunamis, and mudflows. In addition to these immediate dangers, volcanic activity produces secondary effects such as property damage, crop loss, and perhaps changes to weather and climate. These hazards and long-term effects are described in this section. Lava flows The root zone of volcanoes is found some 70 to 200 km (40 to 120 miles) below the surface of the Earth. There, in the Earth’s upper mantle, temperatures are high enough to melt rock and form magma. At these depths, magma is generally less dense than the solid rocks surrounding and overlying it, and so it rises toward the surface by the buoyant force of gravity. In some cases, as in the undersea zones where the tectonic plates of the Earth’s crust are separating, magma may move directly up to the surface through fissures that reach as deep as the mantle. In other cases, it collects in large underground reservoirs known as magma chambers before erupting to the surface. Molten rock that reaches the surface is called lava. Lava flowing toward the sea from Kilauea volcano, Hawaii, takes two recognizable forms: fast-flowing, ropy lava, called pahoehoe, and thick, blocky lava, called aa."

"text": "\"File: Mauna Loa Map.jpg Mauna Loa is the largest volcano on earth and one of five volcanoes that form the Island of Hawaii in the U. S. state of [ [Hawaii|Hawai Template: Okinai ]] in the Pacific Ocean. It is an active shield volcano, with a volume estimated at approximately 18,000 cubic miles (75,000 km³ ), [1] although its peak is about Template: Convert/ft lower than that of its neighbor, Mauna Kea. The Hawaiian name \"\"Mauna Loa\"\" means \"\"Long Mountain\"\". The Lava eruptions from Mauna Loa are silica -poor, thus very fluid: and as a result eruptions tend to be non-explosive and the volcano has extremely shallow slopes. Mauna Kea is slightly higher, by several hundred feet, at 13,500 feet abo The volcano has probably been erupting for at least 700,000 years and may have emerged above sea level about 400,000 years ago, although the oldest-known dated rocks do not extend beyond 200,000 years. [ 2] Its magma comes from the Hawaii hotspot, which has been responsible for the creation of the Hawaiian island chain for tens of millions of years. The slow drift of the Pacific Plate will eventually carry the volcano away from the hotspot, and the volcano will thus become extinct within 500,000 to one million years from now. Mauna Loa's most recent eruption occurred from March 24 1984, to April 15 1984. No recent eruptions of the volcano have caused fatalities, but eruptions in 1926 and 1950 destroyed villages, and the city of Hilo is partly built on lava flows from the late nineteenth century. In view of the hazards it poses to population centers, Mauna Loa is part of the Decade Volcanoes program, which encourages studies of the most dangerous volcanoes."

Developed by the Mikoyan design bureau as an air superiority fighter during the 1970s, the Mi G-29, along with the larger Sukhoi Su-27, was developed to counter new American fighters such as the Mc Donnell Douglas F-15 Eagle, and the General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon. [ 6] The Mi G-29 entered service with the Soviet Air Force in 1983. While originally oriented towards combat against any enemy aircraft, many Mi G-29s have been furnished as multirole fighters capable of performing a number of different operations, and are commonly outfitted to use a range of air-to-surface armaments and precision munitions. The Mi G-29 has been manufactured in several major variants, including the multirole Mikoyan Mi G-29M and the navalised Mikoyan Mi G-29K; the most advanced member of the family to date is the Mikoyan Mi G-35. Later models frequently feature improved engines, glass cockpits with HOTAS -compatible flight controls, modern radar and IRST sensors, considerably increased fuel capacity; some aircraft have also been equipped for aerial refuelling . Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union, a number of successor states have continued to operate the Mi G-29; the largest of which is the Russian Air Force. The Russian Air Force wanted to upgrade its existing fleet to the modernised Mi G-29SMT configuration, but financial difficulties have limited deliveries."

H. Author information ► Copyright and License information ►See other articles in PMC that cite the published article. Go to: Abstract Research on the effectiveness of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) is controversial and is subject to widely divergent interpretations. The goal of this paper is to provide a focused review of the literature on AA effectiveness that will allow readers to judge the evidence for AA effectiveness themselves. The review organizes the research on AA effectiveness according to six criterion required for establishing causation: (1) magnitude of effect; (2) dose response effect; (3) consistent effect; (4) temporally accurate effects; (5) specific effects; (6) plausibility. The evidence for criteria 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 is very strong: Rates of abstinence are about twice as high among those who attend AA (criteria 1, magnitude); higher levels of attendance are related to higher rates of abstinence (criteria 2, dose-response); these relationships are found for different samples and follow-up periods (criteria 3, consistency); prior AA attendance is predictive of subsequent abstinence (criteria 4, temporal); and mechanisms of action predicted by theories of behavior change are present in AA (criteria 6, plausibility). However, rigorous experimental evidence establishing the specificity of an effect for AA or Twelve Step Facilitation/TSF (criteria 5) is mixed, with 2 trials finding a positive effect for AA, 1 trial finding a negative effect for AA, and 1 trial finding a null effect. Studies addressing specificity using statistical approaches have had two contradictory findings, and two that reported significant effects for AA after adjusting for potential confounders such as motivation to change."

A prominent star in the winter sky of the northern hemisphere, it is circumpolar to observers north of 44°N. Its name meaning \"\"little goat\"\" in Latin, Capella depicted the goat Amalthea that suckled Zeus in classical mythology. The Capella system is relatively close, at only 42.9 light-years (13.2 pc) from the Sun. Although it appears to be a single star to the naked eye, Capella is actually a system of four stars in two binary pairs. The first pair consists of two bright yellow giant stars, both of which are around 2.5 times as massive as the Sun. They have exhausted their core hydrogen, and cooled and swollen, moving off the main sequence. Designated Capella Aa and Capella Ab, they are in a very tight circular orbit some 0.74 astronomical units (au) [note 2] apart, and orbit each other every 104 days. Capella Aa is the cooler and more luminous of the two with spectral class K0III; it is 78.7 ± 4.2 times the Sun's luminosity and 11.98 ± 0.57 times its radius. An ageing red clump star, Capella Aa is fusing helium to carbon and oxygen in its core."

The 2018 population is estimated to be 18.20 million. The last official census took place in Chile back in 2002, which placed the population at 15.1 million. The official 2012 estimate placed Chile's population at 17.4 million. Chile's population is estimated to have grown in 2018 to 18.20 million, which makes it the 62nd most populous country on earth. Chile's population has grown steadily over the past 60 years, rising from only 6 million in 1950 to almost triple that number -- more than 18 million people now call Chile home. From 1960 to 2012, Chile's population grew 127%, and now represents 0.25% of the world's population. That means 1 in 404 people on earth is a Chilean resident. Chile is now the 62nd most populous country, and the 6th most populous country in South America (after Brazil, Colombia, Argentina, Peru and Venezuela ), with an estimated 2018 population of 18.20 million. It is also one of the most prosperous and stable in the region, leading Latin America in income per capita, human development, globalization, and low corruption perception.2002 Chile Census At the 2002 census, it was confirmed that there were 15,116,435 people living in South America's longest and thinnest country."

"text": "\"Countries and Their Cultures Bo-Co Culture of Chile Chile Culture Name Chilean Alternative Names The self-name is cultura chilena Orientation Identification. There exist different explanations about the origins of the name \"\"Chile.\"\" The most accepted one is that it is derived from the native Aymará word chilli meaning \"\"the land where the earth ends.\"\" Chile is considered to be one of the most homogeneous nations of Latin America in both ethnic and cultural terms. In contrast to many other Latin American nations, Chile has not experienced the emergence of strong regionalism or conflicting regional cultural identities. Since the late nineteenth century, both the northern and southern regions have been mainly populated by people coming from the central region, helping to strengthen the country's cultural homogeneity. Notwithstanding the existence of a strong dominant national culture, some cultural regional traditions can be identified. In the northern provinces near Bolivia, Aymará Indians have been able to preserve many aspects of their Andean culture. In the southern region the Mapuche Indians are a large cultural group who strongly contributed to the formation of Chilean culture. On Chiloé Island also in the south, a distinct chilote culture emerged over the centuries from a relatively harmonious blending of Indian and Spanish backgrounds; this culture is characterized by rich traditions of music, dance, and mythological tales."

Silence was broken. Some 17 days after the gold and copper mine collapsed, burying the miners more than 600 metres underground, there was still a glimmer of hope. Until that day, the miners had survived on rations of two spoonfuls of tuna, half a biscuit and half a glass of milk every 48 hours, at a temperature of 33 degrees and with 90 percent humidity. The men spent more than two months without seeing the light of day. On October 12, a local deputy announced the news: a rescue, originally planned for the following Wednesday at midnight (local time), would be brought forward to 8pm on the night of the announcement. But the wave of solidarity and excitement that had buzzed around the world during the disaster and subsequent rescue, quickly faded into oblivion. So, what became of the heroes of the San José mine? Euronews contacted Daniel Esteban Herrera, one of the 33 trapped miners, through the social network Facebook."

When an emergency occurs on the road, the decision to act must be a split-second one, and you must know instinctively what to do. The following will prepare you for an emergency driving situation: Soft Shoulders - Driving on the soft shoulder, aside from being illegal, is highly dangerous because it can cause you to lose control of your vehicle. Some shoulders are paved to allow for optimum vehicle traction. However, soft shoulders are usually just packed dirt, which is unstable, so use them only in an emergency situation. Don't drive on the soft shoulder on highways except in emergency situations only. Pot holes may cause the vehicle to lose traction with the road surface.

Medline Plus states that most abdominal aortic aneurysms are caused by atherosclerosis, a fatty deposit of the inner lining of the arteries. The International Society for Cardiovascular Surgery considers the diagnosis of AAA if a diameter is greater than 3 cm. The most characterized manifestations of AAA, According to the Society of Thoracic Surgeons, are pain, abdominal symptoms, symptoms of poor blood flow and shock. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Pain According to the Mayo Clinic, AAA does not usually cause any symptoms until it becomes very large or ruptures. It is often discovered during routine physical exams or procedure for unrelated illnesses. The first indication of abdominal aortic aneurysm is often severe chest pain. If an aneurysm begins to leak, deep back or groin pain often occurs. This pain may not respond to pain medication or position changes, Milton S. Hershey Medical Center, College of Medicine notes. Abdominal Symptoms According to the Preview of the Medifocus Guidebook on AAA in 2010, abdominal pain can be felt."

Alpine skiing, or downhill skiing, is the sport or recreation of sliding down snow -covered hills on skis with fixed-heel bindings.

It is typically practiced at ski resorts which provide services such as ski lifts, artificial snow making and grooming, first aid, and restaurants. Back-country skiers use alpine skiing equipment to ski off the marked pistes, either by leaving ski area boundaries, using specialized bindings and other equipment which allow free or locked heels for efficient hiking, or in some cases with the assistance of snowmobiles, helicopters or snowcats.

Many times the question arises in an accident about whether or not someone had their headlamps on low or on high beam. Were they using their turn signal? Or were other basic indicator lights illuminated? Sometimes as a result of the collision there may be scientific evidence that may be collected from a bulb or even its remnants that could help answer these question Second let’s consider the vehicle’s tires. Depending on the circumstances surrounding the accident there may be questions about tire failure. Valuable evidence regarding this can be collected from a careful inspection. Also the tires could be overly worn or improperly inflated and lead to a hydroplaning incident. Or maybe the tires are unevenly worn indicating a possible alignment issue. Also it is important for accident reconstruction purposes to know if the wheels became pinned or locked due to the collision because this affects the post-impact energy-speed calculations."

Whether it is scheduled maintenance or something unexpected, auto repair is a fact of life that all car owners must deal with at some point. Some of the most common auto repairs likely to be necessary during the course of ownership are things such as changing a tire, replacing brake system components, and performing scheduled maintenance to the engine or transmission. However, modern automobiles are highly complex machines and as such, repairs may become necessary unexpectedly. While most people will need to take their automobiles to a licensed professional for repair, there are those that may try the do-it-yourself route. This is a decision to consider very carefully before going forward. While a potentially significant amount of money might be saved by completing repairs yourself, specific equipment, knowledge and experience may be necessary that preclude this from being a reasonable option. Ultimately, the decision should be made based on the complexity of the necessary repair as well as the mechanical skill of the owner. If there is any doubt, the vehicle should be taken to a licensed professional. For those that choose the do-it-yourself route, a certain level of mechanical competency and required tools are necessary."

Sections Overview Presentation DDx Workup Treatment Medication Media Gallery Tables References History As noted (see Etiology), patients at greatest risk for abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are those who are older than 65 years and have peripheral atherosclerotic vascular disease. Accordingly, a history of smoking, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ( COPD ), and hypertension is often elicited. Less frequent causes include Marfan and Ehlers-Danlos syndromes, collagen vascular diseases, and mycotic aneurysm. Patients who have a first-degree relative with AAA are at increased risk. AAAs are usually asymptomatic until they expand or rupture. Patients may experience unimpressive back, flank, abdominal, or groin pain for some time before rupture. Isolated groin pain is a particularly insidious presentation. This occurs with retroperitoneal expansion and pressure on either the right or left femoral nerve. This symptom may be present without any other associated findings, and a high index of suspicion is necessary to make the diagnosis. At times, AAAs may cause symptoms from local compression, including early satiety, nausea, vomiting, urinary symptoms, or venous thrombosis from venous compression."

An AAA can be dangerous if it isn't spotted early on. It can get bigger over time and could burst (rupture), causing life-threatening bleeding. Men aged 65 and over are most at risk of AAAs. This is why men are invited for screening to check for an AAA when they're 65. Symptoms of an AAAAAAs don't usually cause any obvious symptoms, and are often only picked up during screening or tests carried out for another reason. Some people with an AAA have:a pulsing sensation in the tummy (like a heartbeat)tummy pain that doesn't go awaylower back pain that doesn't go away If an AAA bursts, it can cause:sudden, severe pain in the tummy or lower backdizzinesssweaty, pale and clammy skina fast heartbeatshortness of breathfainting or passing out When to get medical help Make an appointment to see your GP as soon as possible if you have symptoms, especially if you're at a higher risk of an AAA. An ultrasound scan of your tummy may be done to check if you have one. Call 999 for an ambulance immediately if you or someone else develops symptoms of a burst AAA. Who's at risk of an AAAAn AAA can form if the sides of the aorta weaken and balloon outwards."

An AAA usually causes no symptoms unless it bursts (ruptures). A ruptured AAA is often fatal. An AAA less than 5.5 cm wide has a low chance of rupture. An operation to repair the aneurysm may be advised if it is larger than 5.5 cm, as above this size the risk of rupture increases significantly.

Two of the main reasons attributable to this include that the Roth offers tax-free withdrawal of contributions and earnings upon reaching retirement and that the Roth has no Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) withdrawals at age 70 1/2. Unfortunately, based on your earned income, not everyone can directly contribute to a Roth IRA. Why the Roth IRA? As a single taxpayer, if you have earned income (modified AGI) of $125,000 or greater, you cannot contribute to a Roth IRA. For married individuals, this amount is $183,000 (these current limits for 2012 can be indexed upward annually). However, anyone can contribute up to $5,000 per year (indexed for 2012) to a Traditional IRA regardless of the amount of his or her earned income, just as long as his or her contribution does not exceed the lesser of $5,000 or the amount of his or her earned income. ( Age 50 or older also has a $1,000 additional catch-up amount)Traditional IRA Vs. the Non-Deductible IRA Up to certain earned income limitations (that typically change annually), taxpayers in lower tax brackets can receive an IRA contribution deduction on their federal tax returns for deposits made to a Traditional IRA for the year. If you happen to earn over the IRS limits, you can still contribute to an IRA, but you will not be entitled to an IRA contribution deduction on your tax return."

Let Us Help You What is Car Accident Law? Car accident law refers to the legal rules that determine who is responsible for the personal and property damage resulting from a traffic collision. This area of the law consists of the principles of negligence, as applied to this particular category of personal injury cases. Like other cases in which negligence law applies, car accident litigation is governed almost entirely by state law. While nuances exist, car accident victims in every state must prove the same basic four elements in order to recover compensation. These elements are: duty, breach, causation, and harm. With respect to duty, drivers have a legal obligation to obey the rules of the road and to operate their vehicles in a reasonable manner. This means driving a safe speed, maintaining control, exercising awareness, observing traffic signals, using blinkers and headlights, etc. The existence of a duty is typically accepted without much argument."

Most AAAs rupture into the retroperitoneal cavity, which results in the classical triad of pain, hypotension, and a pulsatile mass. However, this triad is seen in only 25–50% of patients, and many patients with ruptured AAA are misdiagnosed. It is likely that different sites of rupture of AAA determine a variety of common and uncommon clinical presentations, the recognition of which can save many lives. This article reviews the different sites of rupture of infrarenal AAA and explores the evidence behind the various clinical presentations seen in patients with ruptured AAA. Keywords: abdominal aortic aneurysm; ruptured aneurysm; aortic rupture; rupture; emergency; surgery; endovascular aneurysm repair\"\"Aneurysm of the abdominal aorta is very often diagnosed when not present, and when present the symptoms may be so obscure that the nature of the trouble is overlooked. \"\" These words of Sir William Osler 1 still resonate today despite remarkable advances in medicine since Osler’s time. Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a common and life threatening disease that affects 5–9% of the population over the age of 65 years. 2 AAA is more common in male smokers with a positive family history of aortic aneurysms."

"text": "\"Abir Mullick State University of New York at Buffalo Introduction The fundamental purpose of bathing is to maintain health and physical well being of the body. While most young, able-bodied people do not think twice about taking bath, bathing is more difficult, more time consuming, and more hazardous for older people with disabilities. The Gallup organization in 1983 surveyed 1,500 non-institutionalized people over the age of 55. \"\" Using shower or tub\"\" was one of the sixteen problem areas identified for maintaining activities of daily living. The National Center for Health Statistics in 1987 reported that about 10 percent of all people over the age of 65 have difficulty bathing, and about 6 percent receive help (Lawton, 1990). The magnitude of problems older people experience while bathing and the seriousness of the situation raises many important questions. Why do they continue to bathe? How difficult is it for older people to bathe? How safe is bathing for older persons with disabilities? Why do older people bathe in unsafe conditions?"

At our Naperville, IL, towing company our towing service for a car, hence you did say car, without any extras so to say would bill out at the high side of $175 and that would include gas, tolls, and the credit card processing fee's. On the low side taking out a few of the variables could go as low as $100. Now lets talk about a few of the variables. Tollway or no tollway. New customer, old customer, and or auto repair shop.

If you need assistance on the road, ACI (Italian Auto Club) the Italian version of AAA, has a 24 hour nationwide roadside assistance number with English speaking operators. Just dial 116 from any phone. For medical emergencies call 113."

The \"\"Question of the Day\"\" segment had become the sounding board for listeners of the \"\"Rick & Donna in the Morning\"\" show and visitors to the station's website, www. Magic Miami.com. Many responses that spring day were what you would expect of this techno generation — cell phones with cameras (26%), Ti Vo (12%) and GPS (10%). However, there was one huge surprise. The overwhelming responses that day regarding the technology they couldn't live without was Sun Pass with 49 percent of the vote!Why do Floridians love their Sun Pass? Read on. What is Sun Pass? A Sun Pass is an electronic gizmo (transponder) that attaches to your windshield, allowing you to drive through designated Sun Pass, E-Pass and O-Pass lanes.

They continue to use the krone (crown), which breaks down into 100 øre. The plural is kroner. The international monetary designation for the Danish kroner is \"\"DKK.\"\" ( The Swedish currency is the kronor, but note the different spelling. ) At this writing, in the wake of some of the most unpredicted economic swings since before World War II, $1 US = 5.85 kroner, or 1 DKK = 17¢; £1 = 10 DKK, or 1 DKK = 10p; and one Danish krone = 13 europence, or 1€ = DKK7.5. It's a good idea to exchange at least some money -- just enough to cover airport incidentals and transportation to your hotel -- before you leave home (though don't expect the exchange rate to be ideal) so that you can avoid lines at airport ATMs. You can exchange money at your local American Express or Thomas Cook office or at your bank. American Express also dispenses traveler's checks and foreign currency via www.americanexpress.com or tel. 800/807-6233, but they'll charge a $15 order fee and additional shipping costs."

"text": "George Washington Bridge (credit: Getty Images)FORT LEE, N. J. (CBSNew York) — Drivers who use Port Authority bridges and tunnels are shelling out even more money for tolls. Starting at 3 a.m. Sunday, the tolls jumped 75 cents for cars with E-ZPass, costing $9.75 for off-peak hours and $11.75 for peak times. It’s up $1 for cash tolls, bringing the total to $14 at all hours. The new prices apply to drivers headed into New York City on the George Washington Bridge, Holland and Lincoln tunnels, Bayonne and Goethals bridges and the Outerbridge Crossing. The toll hike had commuters fired up on the George Washington Bridge on Sunday morning, CBS2’s Ilana Gold reported. “I’m just probably going to ask for a raise now. That’s about it,” driver Patrick Dominguez said, laughing. “Just to travel back and forth on a constant basis, it just takes a toll on your finances,” motorist George Gonzalez said. “I travel back in and out for work, and it costs me as much as like a car payment,” said driver Carli Mc Carthy. “ Like, it’s ridiculous."

Beginning Jan. 2, 2011, the tolls on the turnpike will go up 10 percent. That’s only if you pay cash at the tolls, however. If you use the turnpike’s E-ZPass system, you’ll see a 3 percent increase. That being the case, getting an E-ZPass seems like a no-brainer for those who use the turnpike on a regular basis. But what about those who travel it less frequently? Should they invest in one, too?

Itemized average total costs for the average American driver to own and operate an automobile. [ 1] This yearly value, around 6650 USD, corresponds, according to AAA, to a small sedan. [ 2]The car internal costs are all the costs consumers pay to afford owning and running a car. [ 3] Normally these private expenditures are divided by fixed or standing costs and variable or running costs. [ 4] Fixed costs are those ones which do not depend on the distance travelled by the vehicle and which the owner must pay to keep the vehicle ready for use on the road, like insurance or road taxes. Variable or running costs are those which depend on the use of the car, like fuel or tolls. [ 5]Compared to other popular modes of passenger transportation, especially buses or trains, the car has a relatively high cost per passenger-distance travelled. [ 6] Motorists in the United Kingdom seem to spend on the car an average of roughly 1/3 of their average net income, [7] while motorists in Portugal seem to spend 1/2 of their net income. For the average car owner, depreciation constitutes about half the cost of running a car, [7] nevertheless the typical motorist underestimates this fixed cost by a big margin, or even ignores it altogether.

All you need is a valid US driver's license, two original passport size photos and $10,00.

The Rotunda and Throne Room tour is half a mile in length and takes approximately an hour and a half to complete, most of which is underground. On this tour you will discover the role that water played in creating the caverns. You will also see the 45,000-year-old bat guano, delicate formations, and “Kubla Khan,” the largest speleothem formation in Arizona, made of a hollow mineral tube. The Big Room Tour is open from October – April because it is a nursery roost for over 1,000 cave bats the rest of the year. This tour has only been open since 2003 and is half a mile long, taking approximately an hour and 45 minutes to complete.

The Latest Data on Distracted Driving Is In According to the US Department of Transportation, 9 people are killed and more than 1,000 injured in crashes involving a distracted driver in the United States each day. A study by the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety tracked distracted driving among young drivers from 16 to 19 years old for 6 years, the data will surprise you. While the term distracted driving gained popularity in the past 15 years for talking and texting on cell phones, it would appear that the top reason for distracted driving for teens is not due to mobile use, but rather by distractions of the passengers according to this 70 page report, outlining the surprising data and very real statistics on distracted driving. What Can You Do About Distracted Driving? First, it is important to understand the true meaning of distracted driving, we've defined it below. Then you need to understand what causes distracted driving, what the auto industry and the insurance industry are doing about it, but most importantly how you can talk to your teen about distracted driving to put an end to it. What Is Distracted Driving? The Definition Definition of distracted driving: Distracted driving is when a driver participates in an activity not related to the actual operation of the vehicle while driving a car and the activity has the potential of shifting the driver's focus from their primary objective which is to safely operate their vehicle while focusing on the road and traffic conditions. Distracted driving includes operating mobile devices while driving as well as other equally distracting situations or activities."

"text": "\"19 Free and Discounted Services for Seniors and Their Caregivers59 Comments Follow Comments By Tony Rovere| Last Updated 8.16.2017Most seniors these days are living on limited incomes from sources that may include Social Security, a small pension or maybe some other form of government assistance. With few resources at their disposal, finding affordable products and services is crucial. While numerous resources exist, most of them are either difficult to find or largely unheard of. Your local Area Agency on Aging (the names of these offices may be different in your area) is the best place to begin when looking for assistance. Local charities and nonprofit organizations, such as the Lions Club and Meals on Wheels, can also be great sources of help. In my opinion, the most valuable items for seniors and their caregivers—things like free hearing aids and free dentures—are also the most difficult to come by. From my experiences as a caregiver, I have compiled a list of useful and affordable services and a roadmap for finding them. Free and Discounted Services for Seniors and Their Caregivers Benefits Counseling How many times have you, either as a senior or as a caregiver, wrestled with trying to figure out what type of help was available to you? Free counseling is available through your local Area Agency on Aging (AAA) that can point you in the right direction. You can get answers regarding health insurance coverage, food stamps, income assistance and other benefits through these counselors."

We list Disney hotel promotions and codes that can save you a bundle, as well as other strategies that can help you get the best room rates at Disney World resort hotels. Disney World resort discounts must be thought of as a “clearance sale” — if you want the discount, you have to be willing to take what’s left over! It’s important to be flexible with both dates and hotels, and to be persistent in calling back periodically to see if anything has opened up. All of the discounted Disney World hotel rates listed below are subject to availability and are per night, usually for double occupancy, unless otherwise noted. An extra charge may apply for additional adults in the room. Kids under 18 years of age are free of charge on a “room only” reservation. Have Questions?

We will be going to Sea World on Monday July 19th. Wondering the best way to get to the park. Is walking too crazy or is there any tram/bus offered by Sea World. I do know the Bahia doesn't not offer one. How much parking is. We do have a car."

In their role as first-line providers, emergency physicians are responsible for initiating resuscitation and stabilization, starting investigations and interventions to diagnose and treat illnesses in the acute phase, coordinating care with specialists, and determining disposition regarding patients' need for hospital admission, observation, or discharge. Emergency physicians generally practice in hospital emergency departments, pre-hospital settings via emergency medical services, and intensive care units, but may also work in primary care settings such as urgent care clinics. Different models for emergency medicine exist internationally. In countries following the Anglo-American model, emergency medicine was originally the domain of surgeons, general practitioners, and other generalist physicians, but in recent decades it has become recognised as a speciality in its own right with its own training programmes and academic posts, and the specialty is now a popular choice among medical students and newly qualified medical practitioners. [ 1] By contrast, in countries following the Franco-German model, the speciality does not exist and emergency medical care is instead provided directly by anesthesiologists (for initial resuscitation), surgeons, specialists in internal medicine, or another speciality as appropriate. [ 1] In developing countries, emergency medicine is still evolving and international emergency medicine programs offer hope of improving basic emergency care where resources are limited.

A symbolic representation of the virtues which describes your personality or your higher potential.-Elijah Muhammad (NOI)FEMALE | MALEA beautiful name accompanies us for the rest of our life and is a critical rite of passage in African culture. This act of naming is so critical to self-determination that we have therefore prepared a small sample of popular African names. * When choosing a name take into consideration that some names are religious and cultural (e.g. most Swahili names are Islamic/Muslim, Ghanaian name reflect the day of the birth.) Most names in Africa, unlike in Europe are directly connected to a meaning, i.e. the name ASHAKI means light to all speakers of the language. So most non-European names used by Africans actually still retain their intrinsic meaning. AFRICAN NAMES By Molefi Asante Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available.

In Sanskrit, it is a combination of three words.“ Namah ” which means ‘bow’,“ Ast ” is a grammatical case of ‘I’ and finally“ Te ” which is rendered into English as “you. ”So it literally Namaste translates as “I bow to you.” In ancient India, it was used to show one’s respect to the addressee.

Biography [ edit]Mitchell was born on February 17, 1967 in Syracuse, New York, where she was raised until age eight, when her family moved to Anaheim, California. Her first instruments were piano and viola, which she started playing in fourth grade. She was classically trained in flute and played in youth orchestras as a teenager. Though she initially had intended to major in mathematics in college, she took a class in jazz music from Jimmy Cheatham while a college student at University of California in San Diego, and took to busking in the streets playing jazz flute. [ 1] After two years at UCSD, she transferred to Oberlin College in 1987. In 1990 she moved to Chicago, where she played on the streets and worked for Third World Press, a publishing house devoted to black culture. [ 1] She met members of the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians, and soon started playing with the all-women ensemble Samana under the AACM umbrella. In 1992 she left Chicago, living in New Orleans, and gave birth in 1994 to a girl named Aaya. She returned to school in 1993 and then again in 1996, completing her BA at Chicago State University in 1998; she earned her Master's from Northern Illinois University in 2000. ["

"text": "\"Difference Between Jazz and Swing Posted on April 10, 2013 by admin Jazz vs Swing Swing is a kind of jazz music that was once very popular, especially during 1930’s. It remained dominant till the end of WW II. There are many similarities between jazz and swing making people confused as they find it hard to differentiate between these two music styles. This article takes a closer look at the two musical traditions to find out their differences. Jazz Jazz music is a kind of music that originated from the musical legacy of the African American communities in the United States in the early part of the 20th century. This was a music that resulted with the fusion of the European and African musical traditions in the southern states of the US. It has been influenced by the popular American music too, and today jazz is a heady mix of all these musical styles. Jazz is a continuously evolving music that has a rich history of more than a hundred years. Jazz is a music that surfaced when the African communities who migrated into US confronted the European music. It is a kind of music that is not constrained or rigid like other schools or traditions of music, and there is a lot of improvisation in jazz music."

Learning Objectives Analyze the development of jazz during the 1920s Key Takeaways Key Points The Jazz Age was a post-World War I movement in the 1920s from which jazz music and dance emerged. Although the era ended with the outset of the Great Depression in 1929, jazz has lived on in American popular culture. The birth of jazz music is credited to African Americans, but both black and white Americans alike are responsible for its immense rise in popularity. The rise of jazz coincided with the rise of radio broadcast and recording technology, which spawned the popular “potter palm” shows that included big-band jazz performances. Female singers such as Bessie Smith emerged during this period of postwar equality and open sexuality, paving the way for future female artists. Key Terms Charleston: A 1920s-era dance popularized by African Americans and named for the city of Charleston, South Carolina.potter palm: A popular type of radio show consisting of amateur concerts and big-band jazz performances broadcast from cities such as New York and Chicago.flapper: A young woman whose unconventional clothing and progressive attitude personified the free spirit of the Roaring Twenties and the Jazz Age. If freedom was the mindset of the Roaring Twenties, then jazz was the soundtrack. The Jazz Age was a cultural period and movement that took place in America during the 1920s from which both new styles of music and dance emerged. Largely credited to African Americans employing new musical techniques along with traditional African traditions, jazz soon expanded to America’s white middle class."

Answer by DJ Craig Confidence votes 479Jazz is a musical art form originally developed by African Americans from around the turn of the 20th century. It is characterized by blue notes, syncopation, swing, call and response, polyrhythms, and improvisation sometimes in jam sessions. As the first original art form to emerge from the United States of America, jazz has been described as \"\"America's Classical Music\"\". Jazz has roots in the cultural and musical expression of West Africa and the western Sahel, and in African American music traditions, including blues and ragtime, as well as European military band music. After originating in African American communities near the beginning of the 20th century, jazz gained international popularity by the 1920s. Since then, jazz has had a profoundly pervasive influence on other musical styles worldwide. Today, various jazz styles continue to evolve. Jazz originated from African Americans."

[ 2] Will Friedwald has compared Ella Fitzgerald to Chuck Jones directing his Roadrunner cartoon —each uses predetermined formulas in innovative ways. [ 2]The deliberate choice of scat syllables also is a key element in vocal jazz improvisation. Syllable choice influences the pitch articulation, coloration, and resonance of the performance. [ 3] Syllable choice also differentiated jazz singers' personal styles: Betty Carter was inclined to use sounds like \"\"louie-ooie-la-la-la\"\" (soft-tongued sounds or liquids) while Sarah Vaughan would prefer \"\"shoo-doo-shoo-bee-ooo-bee\"\" ( fricatives, plosives, and open vowels ).

"text": "\"Jazz and the Beat Generation As the Beat movement was getting underway, bebop was already going strong, especially in New York City, where 52nd Street was bustling with activity in jazz clubs up and down its length. Bebop was an innovative style of jazz which saw its heyday in the '40s, characterized by smaller combos as opposed to big bands and a larger focus on virtuosity. Bebop's renaissance came about in the heart of New York City, where musicians like Dizzy Gillespie, Thelonious Monk, Charlie Parker, Max Roach and Miles Davis were ushering in a new era for jazz music. Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg and friends spent much of their time in New York clubs such as the Red Drum, Minton's, the Open Door and other hangouts, shooting the breeze and digging the music. Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie and Miles Davis rapidly became what Allen Ginsberg dubbed \"\"Secret Heroes\"\" to this group of aesthetes. Why did jazz suddenly become such a driving force behind the writings of the Beat authors? What similarities can we find between jazz musicians and the Beats? Perhaps the most obvious comparison we can make is indicated by the very word \"\"beat. \"\"\"\" The word 'beat' was primarily in use after World War II by jazz musicians and hustlers as a slang term meaning down and out, or poor and exhausted\"\". Kerouac went on to twist the meaning of the term \"\"beat\"\" to serve his own purposes, explaining that it meant \"\"beatitude, not beat up."

Expert Answers Mary Koffend is the president of Accountable Aging Care Management (AACM), an eldercare consulting and care management firm that works with elder clients and their families to find the best care providers and services to meet their needs. Tax deductions for both caregivers and assisted living can be made under the right circumstances and with the proper documentation.

Jazz instruments used by African-American musicians to popularize this genre of music can even date from the classical period, ranging from pianos to the rarely used dulcimers. A music genre that sprang up in the early 20th century in the African-American community came to be known as jazz. The slaves from Africa, brought along with them their rich musical culture. In America, these slaves learned to play European instruments like the violin and incorporated them in their style of playing. Many African-Americans played pianos in bars to earn their livelihoods after the abolition of slavery. Places like New Orleans were a hot bed for musicians playing their jazz instruments to create new sounds. The most common jazz instruments are the saxophone and the piano. Jazz music has evolved over the ages and has seen the inclusion of many instruments in this genre of music. There are different styles of playing jazz, and the instruments used depends on the style."

The style's West African pedigree is evident in its use of blue notes, improvisation, polyrhythms, syncopation, and the swung note. From its early development until the present, jazz has also incorporated music from 19th and 20th century American popular music. The word jazz began as a West Coast slang term of uncertain derivation and was first used to refer to music in Chicago in about 1915. Jazz has, from its early 20th century inception, spawned a variety of subgenres, from New Orleans Dixieland dating from the early 1910s, big band-style swing from the 1930s and 1940s, bebop from the mid-1940s, a variety of Latin jazz fusions such as Afro-Cuban and Brazilian jazz from the 1950s and 1960s, jazz-rock fusion from the 1970s and late 1980s developments such as acid jazz, which blended jazz influences into funk and hip-hop. Double bassist Reggie Workman, tenor saxophone player Pharoah Sanders, and drummer Idris Muhammad performing in 1978Jazz can be hard to define because it spans from Ragtime waltzes to 2000s-era fusion. While many attempts have been made define jazz from points of view outside jazz, such as using European music history or African music, jazz critic Joachim Berendt argues that all such attempts are unsatisfactory. One way to get around the definitional problems is to define the term “jazz” more broadly. Berendt defines jazz as a \"\"form of art music which originated in the United States through the confrontation of blacks with European music\"\"; he argues that jazz differs from European music in that jazz has a \"\"special relationship to time, defined as 'swing' \"\", \"\"a spontaneit and vitality of musical production in which improvisation plays a role\"\"; and \"\"sonority and manner of phrasing which mirror the individuality of the performing jazz musician\"\". Travis Jackson has also proposed a broader definition of jazz which is able to encompass all of the radically different eras: he states that it is music that includes qualities such as “ 'swinging', improvising, group interaction, developing an 'individual voice', and being 'open' to different musical possibilities”."

People enjoy watching jazz dancers, as the dancing is fun and energetic. Jazz dancing is a form of dance that showcases a dancer's individual style and originality. Every jazz dancer interprets and executes moves and steps in their own way. This type of dancing is energetic and fun, consisting of unique moves, fancy footwork, big leaps and quick turns. To excel in jazz, dancers need a strong background in ballet, as it encourages grace and balance. Jazz Clothes When dressing for a jazz dance class, think about wearing clothing that allows you to move. Jazz classes are casual and relaxed, so feel free to select your own clothing. A dancer's body lines need to be visible, however, so baggy clothes are generally discouraged. Tights and leotards are fine, but most jazz dancers prefer to wear jazz or dance pants."

[ 1] As jazz spread around the world, it drew on different national, regional, and local musical cultures, giving rise to many distinctive styles. New Orleans jazz began in the early 1910s, combining earlier brass band marches, French quadrilles, biguine, ragtime and blues with collective polyphonic improvisation. In the 1930s, swing big bands, Kansas City jazz, and Gypsy jazz were the prominent styles. Bebop and cool jazz emerged in the 1940s, and the 1950s saw free jazz, hard bop, and modal jazz.

In the early 1980s, a commercial form of jazz fusion called \"\"smooth jazz\"\" became successful, and other jazz styles include Afro-Cuban jazz and various fusion genres.

The hard-swinging, bluesy transition style is bracketed by Count Basie who in 1929 signed with the Bennie Moten's Kansas City Orchestra and Kansas City native Charlie Parker who was to usher in the Bebop style in the 1940s.

"text": "Jazz, musical form, often improvisational, developed by African Americans and influenced by both European harmonic structure and African rhythms. It was developed partially from ragtime and blues and is often characterized by syncopated rhythms, polyphonic ensemble playing, varying degrees of improvisation, often deliberate deviations of pitch, and the use of original timbres. Armstrong, Louis Louis Armstrong, 1953. New York World-Telegram and the Sun Newspaper Photograph Collection/Library of Congress, Washington, D. C. (Digital File Number: cph 3c27236 )Any attempt to arrive at a precise, all-encompassing definition of jazz is probably futile. Jazz has been, from its very beginnings at the turn of the 20th century, a constantly evolving, expanding, changing music, passing through several distinctive phases of development; a definition that might apply to one phase—for instance, to New Orleans style or swing —becomes inappropriate when applied to another segment of its history, say, to free jazz. Early attempts to define jazz as a music whose chief characteristic was improvisation, for example, turned out to be too restrictive and largely untrue, since composition, arrangement, and ensemble have also been essential components of jazz for most of its history. Similarly, syncopation and swing, often considered essential and unique to jazz, are in fact lacking in much authentic jazz, whether of the 1920s or of later decades. Again, the long-held notion that swing could not occur without syncopation was roundly disproved when trumpeters Louis Armstrong and Bunny Berigan (among others) frequently generated enormous swing while playing repeated, unsyncopated quarter notes. Jazz, in fact, is not—and never has been—an entirely composed, predetermined music, nor is it an entirely extemporized one. For almost all of its history it has employed both creative approaches in varying degrees and endless permutations."

What this means is that they have specialized in certain specific medical fields and/or specific groups of populations and that they have taken on the role of leader in that field. A clinical nurse leader advises, counsels and mentors other nurses, particularly when it comes to complex procedures. As a clinical nurse leader, employment can be found in clinics, hospitals and various other facilities. She has a tremendous and highly valuable amount of experience and knowledge and uses these to ensure care is improved for patients, their loved ones and entire communities. The role of the clinical nurse leader has to do with creating excellent quality of care, as well as enhancing safety. About the Clinical Nurse Leader The role of a clinical nurse leader has been recognized by the AACN (American Association of Colleges of Nurses). The role came about to stop various errors in health care facilities from occurring. These errors have often caused deaths and injuries in patients."

"text": "Clinical nurse specialists and nurse practitioners may choose to sub-specialize in telemetry under a primary specialization in a particular patient population focus, and often in combination with other sub-specializations such as acute or critical care. Telemetry nurses work with critically ill patients who require the use of monitoring devices, such as those that measure heart rates, breathing rates, blood pressure, and oxygen levels. Nurses may monitor patients at their bedsides and provide medications and other support as needed, or provide remote telemetry services in which monitors for telemetry devices are in a central location, such as a nurses’ station. Telemetry nurses fall under the category of progressive care nurse, as defined by the American Association of Critical Care Nurses (AACN), which supports nursing professionals, including telemetry nurses, who care for acutely and critically ill patients. Progressive care/telemetry nurses work in hospital units that go by various names, such as telemetry units, intermediate care units, direct observation units, step-down units, or transitional care units. These units provide critical care to patients who require constant monitoring for a range of reasons, including recent surgery, heart attacks, congestive heart failure, renal failure, COPD, and advanced cancer. Monitored patients may be those who are progressing from a more critical state to a less critical one, as is the case with post-operative patients, or from a less critical state to a more critical one, as would be the case with patients being prepared for surgery or those with a progressive life-threatening condition. Progressive care/telemetry units have become more common as hospitals experience a shortage of ICU beds, creating more demand for progressive care and telemetry nurses. Skills required of telemetry nurses include: Basic cardiac rhythm monitoring techniques, interpretation, and treatment Basic and advanced life support Calculating drug dosage, administering continuous medication infusion, and monitoring patients for effects of medication Monitoring patients before, during, and after invasive procedures Recognizing the signs and symptoms of cardiopulmonary and respiratory emergencies and knowing how to start standard interventions to stabilize the patient Education As a sub-specialization for advanced practice nurses, telemetry skills are typically gained on the job, as there are no graduate programs or post graduate certificates specific to telemetry. Employers hiring telemetry nurses typically look for a minimum of a bachelor’s degree in nursing along with technological and data interpretation skills."

Cardiac nurses possess a high level of education and experience that allows them to diagnose, treat, and manage conditions that affect the complex cardiovascular system. They work to promote optimal cardiovascular health among clients through preventative measures that involve health counseling, screening, and stress tests, as well as disease prevention and management strategies. They also provide care to patients with coronary heart disease, providing post-operative care to those recovering from bypass surgery or heart transplant. Although cardiac nurses are traditionally employed in hospital cardiology units, cardiovascular interventional units, and cardiothoracic surgical units, the need for cardiac nurses in diagnostic, rehabilitative, and long-term care settings is also on the rise. Cardiac nurses also serve vital roles in a number of cardiology specific medical settings: Cardiac Catheterization Labs – Some cardiac nurses may focus their education on cardiac catheterization and hold the designation of a cardiac cath lab (CCL) nurse. Cardiac catheterization labs are most often found in hospital environments, and CCL nurses may therefore work in critical care, emergency care, or acute care. A CCL nurse typically provides short-term, immediate care. Some CCL nurses are responsible for pre-procedure and post-procedure care, as well."

"text": "As healthcare providers and the public alike look at ways to make the best quality healthcare widely accessible, relying more heavily on highly skilled advanced practice registered nurses has proven to be a strategic imperative. Clinical nurse specialists will continue to be key to this shift, as they work to improve patient outcomes by applying theory and research to improve the efficiency and success of nursing systems. According to a 2010 survey by the National Association of Clinical Nurse Specialists, most CNSs work in inpatient hospital settings, while the rest worked in clinical settings that ranged from home health care to public health centers. Clinical nurse specialists are registered nurses who typically hold a master’s degree, at minimum, along with national certification denoting advanced knowledge and clinical skills specific to a particular patient population or specialized area of nursing. While working directly with patients, they implement treatment plans to resolve or mitigate medical or psychiatric issues. Beyond providing direct patient care, CNSs are also involved in shaping the larger healthcare system by serving as mentors to fellow nurses and by systematically applying observations of direct patient care to research. They interact with professionals at every level of the healthcare system, marshalling experience and advanced training to educate nurse peers and bring about systemic changes in an effort to improve practices that consistently result in improved patient outcomes. Clinical nurse specialists also take up advocacy roles in committees and policy-shaping entities in an effort to improve upon the delivery of healthcare. In this sense, CNSs are imbedded experts who have a voice in changing the structure of health care as a whole. Ultimately, clinical nurse specialists work to apply the best research-based theory to create best practices."

That said, many DNP programs incorporate an NP specialization, while Ph D-prepared nurses must typically pursue a post-graduate certificate to become an NP. In terms of completing each degree, the requirements can differ greatly. In order to obtain a DNP, students must complete a clinical project that demonstrates intimate knowledge of evidenced-based practices.

An MSN and DNP both require nursing skills a student may develop through an RN or BSN degree program, the MSN is easier to achieve in less time than the DNP, and it offers more options. Students questioning this choice between the MSN or DNP might want answers to the differences between the two degrees — and listed below are several differences. The MSN Track When getting a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN), students are asked to choose one of four routes: Nurse Practitioner (NP), Certified Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA), Clinical Nurse Specialist (CNS), and Certified Nurse Midwife (CNM). These specializations allow nurses to work on different skill sets that can benefit them in obtaining the exact occupation they desire upon graduation. Students choose a specialty from the start, which gives them the advantage of getting specialized training in their field even before they complete their BSN.

"text": "The clinical nurse leader (CNL) designation was first proposed by the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) to address many of the issues facing today’s healthcare system, including patient safety and quality of care. A report published by the Institute of Medicine in 1999, aptly titled To Err is Human: Building a Safer Health System, was by itself a partial impetus for the idea behind developing and clearly defining the CNL role within the sphere of advanced clinical nursing practice. The sobering report provided a great deal of insight into the frequency of preventable medical errors, including data drawn from two separate studies that showed between 44,000 and 98,000 Americans die every year as a result of medical errors. In the years that followed, the AACN formed two task forces made up of leaders from the practice environment: One to identify solutions for improving the quality of patient care, and the other to prepare nurses with the skills and knowledge required to thrive in present-day and future healthcare systems. Through years of research and much discussion within the medical community, a clear definition of the CNL role began to emerge. By 2007, graduate programs and national certification were available specific to the clinical nurse leader role. According to a 2012 report published by the AACN, to date, more than 1,000 CNLs have been certified since the inception of the role in 2007. The CNL role is distinct from other advanced practice clinical roles, as clinical nurse leaders are responsible for designing, implementing and evaluating client care by coordinating, delegating and supervising the care provided by a healthcare team at the clinical level, as opposed to the administrative level, as is the case with other nursing leadership roles. Clinical nurse leaders use evidence-based practice to ensure that patients receive the best care, making full use of the latest innovations in care delivery. Clinical nurse leaders are part of an interdisciplinary team of physicians, pharmacists, social workers, nurse practitioners, and clinical nurse specialists; all working together to plan and implement the most effective medical care."

"text": "\"The Future of the Associate Degree in Nursing Program The associate’s degree in nursing (ADN) has been the benchmark credential for getting a nursing job for the past 40 years, but change is now afoot. A small but growing number of U. S. hospitals are now only hiring nurses that have a bachelor’s degree in nursing (BSN) or higher. And indicators are that many more hospitals will join them in years to come. What sets the two degrees apart? The amount of ground covered, for one thing. A BSN program may feature some additional instruction in communication, leadership, critical thinking, and the social sciences. It prepares its students to take on a wider variety of roles, such as teaching, consulting, research, and administration. Not surprisingly, the BSN is also a bigger investment of time. An ADN involves around 21 months of study (According to an article presented by Rasmussen College ), at the end of which you take the NCLEX exam. Pass this exam, and you have an ADN."

"text": "Certificate in Nursing Nursing is an extremely rewarding and diverse branch of healthcare which focuses on providing medical care to patients, assisting doctors and performing a variety of managerial and administrative duties in hospitals and clinics. While nurses are mainly charged with looking after patients and ensuring their comfort, they also carry out various diagnostic tests, perform physiotherapy and take care of administrative tasks such as record keeping and medical billing. Due to their interaction with the public, they are also responsible for educating people on basic healthcare and hygiene principles. Featured Schools Featured Programs About the Degree Numerous nursing degrees and certifications are offered on-campus and online by a number of colleges and special training institutes around the country. The basic requirement to enroll in such programs varies. A high school diploma or GED is usually enough to enroll in a certificate or undergraduate level nursing degree program. The most common type of certification is the Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) certification which can be completed in as little as a year. It includes basic courses in anatomy, physiology and various biological and behavioral sciences. A more advanced program would be Associate Degree in Nursing or Bachelor of Science in Nursing, which can help graduates become Registered Nurses (RNs). These programs may require completing an internship at a healthcare organization in order to help students develop a working knowledge of their field."

"text": "Registered Nurse (RN)Average Salary$67,490Years Higher Education4-6Job Outlook Excellent Nurses today are highly respected and valued members of the health care team who bring their own body of knowledge to the process of health care. They have a unique scope of practice and can practice independently, although they also collaborate with all members of the health care team to provide the care needed by each patient as an individual. Registered nurses (RNs) work in collaboration with physicians and members of other health care disciplines. Nursing is also a job that is in demand. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, registered nursing is among the top 10 occupations for job growth between 2014 and 2024, expected to grow at 16%. When providing direct patient care, nurses observe, assess and record symptoms, reactions and progress, which provides the basis for care planning and intervention. RNs also develop and manage nursing care plans, instruct patients and their families in proper care and help individuals and groups take steps to improve or maintain their health. Registered nursing requires a large base of knowledge in order to assess, plan and intervene to promote health, prevent disease and help patients cope with illness. While state laws govern the scope of nursing practice, it is usually patient needs that determine a nurse’s daily job activities. RN roles range from direct patient care and case management to establishing nursing practice standards, developing quality assurance procedures, directing complex nursing care systems, conducting clinical research and teaching in nursing programs, as well as practicing in many other invigorating settings."

"text": "\"Perhaps for the first time in the world, a government body has led a Visa/Master Card/Swift-free retail payments system that uses bank accounts directly. For many years, banks have imagined solutions that could make online buyers use the source of funds directly by paying via bank accounts (e-checks, ACH+ and the latest being host card emulation*, etc.). National Payment Corp of India, which was established in 2009, has launched a solution called Unified Payment Interface (UPI) which acts as the gateway for the cashless society in India. This article aims at giving in-depth insights and analysis about UPI technology. More than 19 banks are on board for UPI and many more are yet to join. Using UPI, people can send money using virtual IDs. Banks are integrating UPI to existing apps and users have loads of advantages like making payments without creating beneficiaries in bank accounts; receivers initiating the transactions; and single-click & two-factor authentication. What is UPI? UPI is an open-source platform designed for the mobile age that helps with easy integration of various payment platforms. UPI is powered by a single payment API and a set of supporting APIs."

"text": "Enter Recovery Mode on Rooted and Locked Android devices Marius Maria How To The Android system comes with great advantages for its users, as the OS is always opened for changes and improvements. The best is that you can easily customize and optimize the performances of your Android device for improving the speeds, upgrading the battery life or even for replacing the stock firmware with a custom and unofficial one. But in order to do so, you first have to deal with some extra operations that will provide access to the internal system of your smartphone or tablet. As you will see, for each task using the recovery image will be required; that’s why during this general tutorial I will show you how to easily and manually enter recovery mode on rooted and locked Android handsets. All the Android smartphones and tablets are having a stock recovery image, pre-installed on their systems. The stock recovery can be used for numerous operations such as installing apps from the SD card, backup the data, perform maintenance procedures and so on. But, when dealing with unofficial methods, such as installing a custom ROM or a custom kernel, the stock recovery is useless. In that case you will have to replace the stock recovery with a custom one, an operation that usually requires root access (not always though). The custom recovery images are bringing more features and options that can be used by the Android users who are trying to tweak their handsets. So, these tools are useful only if you want to perform complex operations on your phone / tablet, else you will replace the stock recovery without any purpose."

"text": "African Girl’s Names Family April 21, 2016 admin Featured 28A name is a declaration of one’s identity, an ontological expression of who and what constitutes that unique self. A symbolic representation of the virtues which describes your personality or your higher potential.-Elijah Muhammad (NOI)FEMALE | MALENames are cultural identifiers. The first gift you can give your child is a noble African name, they wear it all their life and God willing live by the name given. Your name links you with your past, your ancestors and is a part of your spirituality. A beautiful name accompanies us for the rest of our life and is a critical rite of passage in African culture. This act of naming is so critical to self-determination that we have therefore prepared a small sample of popular African names. * When choosing a name take into consideration that some names are religious and cultural (e.g. most Swahili names are Islamic/Muslim, Ghanaian name reflect the day of the birth.) Most names in Africa, unlike in Europe are directly connected to a meaning, i.e. the name ASHAKI means light to all speakers of the language. So most non-European names used by Africans actually still retain their intrinsic meaning. You must remember that slave-names will keep you a slave in the eyes of the civilized world today."

"text": "What is an 'Accredited Asset Management Specialist - AAMS'Accredited asset management specialist (AAMS) is a professional designation awarded by the College for Financial Planning (CFP) to financial professionals who successfully complete a self-study program, pass an exam, and agree to comply with a code of ethics. Successful applicants earn the right to use the AAMS designation with their names for two years, which can improve job opportunities, professional reputation and pay. Next Up Chartered Financial Consultant ... Chartered Life Underwriter (CLU)Chartered Mutual Fund Counselor ... Certified Treasury Professional ... BREAKING DOWN 'Accredited Asset Management Specialist - AAMS'The AAMS program began in 1994 and is now taught exclusively online using the CFP's platform. The CFP is a provider of financial education for working adults in the financial services industry and the AAMS program consists of 12 modules, starting with a review of the asset management process, and then covering a broad range of topics, such as investments, insurance, taxation, retirement and estate planning issues. AAMS Recognition and Continuing Education The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) specifies that it does not approve or endorse any professional credential or designation, but it does list the AAMS as one of the available designations in the financial services industry. According to CFP, some organizations recognize the AAMS designation as representing 28 hours of continuing education credit. To keep the privileges associated with the designation, AAMS professionals must complete 16 hours of continuing education every two years and pay a fee. The AAMS continuing education program is developed in conjunction with some of the nation's top investment firms. Applicants explore case studies based on real-life scenarios, which are designed to prepare them for effectiveness in the real world and for building lasting relationships with clients. To inform the public about the current status of AAMS designees, the CFP maintains an online database containing the names of all members and the status of their designations."

Leigh Kakaty (lead vocals), Dave Grahs (Guitar), and Dylan Allison formed the early stages of the band in Grand Rapids, Michigan. They recently signed to upstart record label Pazzo Music, run by 25 year music veterans George Cappellini and Charlie Brusco. After continually playing shows throughout the Midwest, Pop Evil decided to go into the studio with Al Sutton (Kid Rock, 5HJ) to record. In 2005, the band released their first EP entitled “Ready or Not.” Already having sold over 12,000 copies throughout the Mid West, the band is ready to release their upcoming debut album. Leigh claims that “It is amazing to see the level of support that we now receive in areas other than our home town (Grand Rapids). Everywhere we go, fans know the words to our songs. It feels really good to see people relating to and embracing the music that we have created. ”In the fall of 2006, their song “Somebody Like You” hit the radio waves and currently has over 1200 total media base spins on the most popular rock station in the area, 97.9 WGRD, and is currently the 1 most requested song in the city of Grand Rapids."

"text": "Dundonald Links to Host the 2017 AAM Scottish Open25, April 2016Dundonald Links, in North Ayrshire, will host the Aberdeen Asset Management Scottish Open for the first time in 2017. Located near the town of Irvine, Dundonald Links – which is undergoing major renovation works – will follow on from Castle Stuart Golf Links, the host venue for the 34th edition of Scotland’s national Open from 7 – 10 July 2016. The stunning 7,100-yard, par 72 layout was designed by the highly-acclaimed golf course architect Kyle Phillips, whose creations also include Kingsbarns, one of the three venues for the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, and The Grove, which will host the British Masters supported by Sky Sports for the first time this year. Since being acquired by Loch Lomond Golf Club in February 2003, Dundonald Links has played host to numerous professional and amateur tournaments, including the European Tour Qualifying School First Stage, a qualifier for the Senior Open Championship presented by Rolex and, most recently, the Aberdeen Asset Management Ladies Scottish Open, which returns to Dundonald Links this year. After hosting the 2015 Ladies Scottish Open, which featured World No. 1 Lydia Ko and Solheim Cup player Suzann Pettersen, the club’s owners devised plans for a structural overhaul which included the construction of a new clubhouse, scheduled for completion at the end of 2016. On the course itself, under the guidance of Kyle Phillips, several of the greens have been increased in size and three of the putting surfaces have been levelled in selected areas to soften their contours, thereby providing organisers with more options when setting up for tournament play. Keith Pelley, Chief Executive of the European Tour, said: “We are delighted to announce that the Aberdeen Asset Management Scottish Open will be staged at Dundonald Links in 2017. Following this year’s tournament at Castle Stuart in the north, this will ensure that Scotland’s national Open is showcased as widely as possible across the country. “Special thanks goes to our two partners in the Scottish Open – the title sponsors Aberdeen Asset Management, and the Scottish Government – whose joint vision and commitment to improve and expand this great tournament has enabled us to make this announcement today."

"text": "\"Alternate Access Mappings (AAMs) *Explained★ ★ ★ ★ ★★ ★ ★ ★★ ★ ★★ ★★bspender May 27, 2013 36Share 0 0Based on many of the support cases that I've seen, Alternate Access Mappings (AAM) may be one of the least understood aspects of Share Point and can have substantial impact on Search (both Crawl and Query). In this post, I'll document some of my experiences and insights on AAMs. Note: \"\" Plan alternate access mappings (Office Share Point Server) \"\" is the best resource I've found for documenting AAMs, which covers both several configuration scenarios and troubleshooting common mistakes. Although listed as Share Point 2007 content, its information largely applies to both Share Point 2010 and Share Point 2013. I won't duplicate that Tech Net page, but I will make reference (calling it the \"\"Plan for AAMs \"\" document) to reiterate some aspects that have particular impact for Search. Updates: I recommend also reading my follow on post here that further dives into the problems that occur when crawling the non-default zone and work to show why crawling the default zone should be considered required (*hint: it's going to break otherwise). I also have a redux post here on AAMs that provides even more illustrations to explain this. The most common mistakes I see regarding AAMs tend to fall into the following groups (more detail on each of these throughout this post): Crawling the non-Default zone URL for the Web Application For SP2013, I've already illustrated some impacts in my previous post \"\" Beware crawling the non-Default zone for a Share Point 2013 Web Application \"\"In SP2010, this can also have significant impact (e.g. Contextual Scopes and Popular Social Tags)Creating a new AAM zone without extending the Web Application or manually altering the Public URL of any zone from Central Admin This can cause ambiguous scenarios for routing requests to Share Point and result in connectivity issues or unexpected authentication failures Unless configuring for Reverse Proxy or adding additional Internal address (both fairly uncommon), there's almost no reason to manually alter AAMs Assuming that updates made in AAMs automatically update IIS bindings (Source: Plan for AAMs)A by-product of this: If IIS host name bindings are generic across multiple IIS Sites and AAMs are modified incorrectly, a single w3wp.exe process may be incorrectly handling requests for another Share Point Web Application Not configuring External Resource Mappings in the Search Farm when crawling another farm AAMs: An Overview and Base Example In the Plan for AAMs document (referenced above), it provides the following description (again, this also applies to SP2010 and SP2013):\"\"Alternate access mappings enable a Web application that receives a request for an internal URL, in one of the five authentication zones, to return pages that contain links to the public URL for the zone. You can associate a Web application with a collection of mappings between internal and public URLs. Internal refers to the URL of a Web request as it is received by Office Share Point Server 2007."

Anthony Liggins, 127th Air Refueling Squadron, meets with a promotion board at Selfridge Air National Guard Base, Mich., Dec. 14, 2011. ( Photo courtesy of DVIDS)Last month I wrote about some of the things a soldier can expect when attending the promotion board. Now, I’d like to go more in-depth on exactly what soldiers can do to prepare for one of the most important events of their career. Each unit will have their own Standard Operating Procedures. However, after 14 years of being a leader and attending numerous boards as a participant, supervisor, and board member, I have acquired a handful of tips that should help any soldier attending any Promotion or Soldier/NCO of the Month board. I focus on the following when determining if a soldier will get my recommendation for promotion. ENLISTED RECORDS BRIEF (ERB) – Soldiers must update their ERB prior to the promotion board and ensure that all awards are listed correctly. Equally important is the weapons qualification, APFT, and NCOER data (if soldier is appearing before the Staff Sergeant board). UNIFORM – The uniform you wear will be determined by the location of your Promotion Board."

Assistants are called upon to do intake services for patients, such as gathering information and measuring vital signs. They can also help physicians with exams, prepare blood samples and schedule appointments. Medical assistants have a job that could see significant growth in the years to come. Between an aging population of baby boomers and an increase in chronic conditions, the medical field will need qualified support workers to provide care efficiently and effectively. To land one of these jobs, you'll need proper training. While you can find online medical assisting degrees, this is a hands-on field so most programs require some in-person instruction in addition to online classes. Graduates from properly accredited medical assisting degree programs can apply for a Certified Medical Assistant (CMA) designation, the most common credential in the field.

Many veteran MAs got the job without the benefit of formal training. Unlike today when education is an important requirement to be considered for the job, a high school diploma was enough prerequisite then to work in a doctor’s office doing both secretarial and minor clinical functions. Medical assistant certification is voluntary and not mandated by law to work as a medical assistant. But the nature of health care service delivery has become more complex and being a fast learner just won’t cut it for most employers. Not only do they prefer training for the job, but the credentials to go with it as well. If you plan on relocating to another town or state and want to find a similar position, being certified will boost your chances of getting the job. Experience matters definitely, but a paper attesting to your knowledge and competence in medical assisting will give you the edge over other candidates. Remember, competition is tough because of so many schools offering a medical assistant program. What does it take to become a certified MA?"

Medical assistants are usually unlicensed, yet they play an important role in the efficiency of most health practices. Do not confuse the term medical assistant with the term physician assistant. A physician assistant can attend to the patients under the supervision of the physician and in some cases, can even perform minor procedures. In most countries, medical assistants do not have legal status. The History of the American Association of Medical Assistants Founded in 1955, the American Association of Medical Assistants ( AAMA) is still the only medical association that is devoted only to medical assistants. There are three other agencies, which certify medical assistants that are recognized by the National Commission for Certifying Agencies, but the AAMA is the most commonly used and the most recognized. The AAMA has expanded into more than 43 states and has grown into over 320 chapters nationwide since it was born in 1955. Credit to: www.aama-ntl.org The Mission of the American Association of Medical Assistants The mission of the AAMA is to produce certified medical assistants who are highly skilled and knowledgeable and who can play a vital role in the smooth operations of a wide variety of many different health care organizations. AAMA Code of Ethics for the Medical Assistant Designed to set forth the principals of ethical moral conduct as they relate to the medical profession, the AAMA medical assist code of ethics states that a medical assistant will do the following: Provide services with the utmost respect of the patient Show respect for confidential information Hold their profession in the highest honor and with the highest principals Continue to improve their skills and knowledge for the good of the patients and of their colleagues Participate in services and activities that are aimed toward improved health and well-being of the community Becoming Certified as a Medical Assistant To begin with, you must enroll in an accredited medical assisting program and receive academic and clinical training in a variety of areas."

Typical Duties Administration work, including scheduling appointments and lab tests, answering phones, completing insurance forms Clinical tasks, including collecting specimens, changing dressings Preparing examination rooms for patients such as sterilizing instruments, removing contaminated waste Recording test results and vital signs Interviewing patients, explaining treatment plans, preparing patients for tests and procedures Top Featured Schools Herzing University Associate of Science in Medical Assisting Learn More Keiser University Associate of Science in Medical Assisting Learn More Employment Outlook and Salary Range Figures published by Gray Associates indicate that in 2014 the overall number of job postings and ads for medical assistant positions grew by 15 percent. 1 According to a recent report by Gray Associates over 25 percent of medical assistant job postings ask that applicants hold at least one certification. 2 This suggests that demand for credentialed medical assistants is growing. A key reason for this increased demand for medical assistants with credentials such as CMA (AAMA) or RMA (AMT) is changes to federal regulations and healthcare reform programs, such as the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Incentive Program. This is commonly known as Meaningful Use (MU) and offers healthcare practices financial incentives to adopt Electronic Health Records (EHR).

However, medical assistant training prepares these individuals to perform non-invasive exams on patients and to perform certain tasks under physician direction and supervision. According to the AAMA, important clinical skills for medical assistants include the following: Recording a patient's medical history: Before the lead doctor or nurse arrives, medical assistants must document the patient's current symptoms, medical history, risk factors, and other relevant concerns that will help the primary physician deliver an accurate diagnosis and proceed with a comprehensive treatment plan. Explaining medical matters with patients and their families: Medical assistants will often be called upon to meet with patients and their relatives to discuss the individual's diagnosis, symptom management, treatment options, prescribed medication, dietary restrictions, and other key matters related to their conditions and recovery. Preparing patients for examinations: Before the main exam takes place, medical assistants will inform the patient about what will take place and, if necessary, explain how different steps of the exam will be performed. Administering medications: In some cases, medical assistants will be asked to prepare medications and deliver them to patients. Assistants also coordinate prescription refills as needed. Performing medical procedures: The tests and exams medical assistants are asked to perform will include (but not necessarily be limited to) the following medical assistant duties: Drawing blood and other bodily specimens Performing tests on collected specimens and recording results in the patient's medical chart Performing an electrocardiogram (EKG) for patients with heart-related diseases or injuries Removing stitches and sutures Replacing wound dressings (such as bandages or casts)Administrative Medical Assistant: In addition to clinical duties, medical assistants will often assist administrative staff behind the front desk."

Medical Assistant Salary According to the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics’ current Occupational Outlook Handbook, the median national annual salary for medical assistants is$31,540. Actual salaries may vary greatly based on specialization within the field, location, years of experience and a variety of other factors. Administrative medical assistants’ duties will differ from clinical medical assistants, for instance, though there may also be some overlap of responsibilities. A full-time medical assistant may be offered a benefits package including health care, vacation and holiday pay and sick leave and a 401 (k) plan. Medical assistants have many possibilities to boost their earning potential. For some, this job is a stepping stone to a higher-paying job in the health care field. Others will find that certain work settings may pay more than others. According to the American Association of Medical Assistants (AAMA), certified medical assistants (CMAs) earn slightly varied salaries. Take a look at the variance between annual salaries for CMAs in different health care settings."

In Demand | Medical assisting is one of the nation's careers growing much faster than average for all occupations, according to the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics, attributing job growth to the following: Predicted surge in the number of physicians' offices and outpatient care facilities Technological advancements Growing number of elderly Americans who need medical treatment Job Responsibilities | Medical assistants are cross-trained to perform administrative and clinical duties. Here is a quick overview (duties vary from office to office depending on location, size, specialty, and state law): Administrative Duties (may include, but not limited to): Using computer applications Answering telephones Greeting patients Updating and filing patient medical records Coding and filling out insurance forms Scheduling appointments Arranging for hospital admissions and laboratory services Handling correspondence, billing, and bookkeeping Clinical Duties (may include, but not limited to): Taking medical histories Explaining treatment procedures to patients Preparing patients for examination Assisting the physician during exams Collecting and preparing laboratory specimens Performing basic laboratory tests Instructing patients about medication and special diets Preparing and administering medications as directed by a physician Transmitting prescription refills as directed Drawing blood Taking electrocardiograms Removing sutures and changing dressings Patient Liaison | Medical assistants are instrumental in helping patients feel at ease in the physician’s office and often explain the physician's instructions.

"text": "The Definitive Guide to Medical Assistant Certification A question that is often asked is what is a certified medical assistant? The definition can be confusing, as there are a number of certification credentials that medical assistants can receive from different examination boards. One of these examinations, offered by the American Association of Medical Assistants (AAMA), awards the title of Certified Medical Assistant, commonly known by the abbreviation CMA (AAMA). However, there are several professional bodies that also offer certification opportunities. Certification credentials awarded by other professional organizations include the titles of Registered Medical Assistant, RMA (AMT) and Certified Medical Administrative Assistant (CMAA) from the American Medical Technologists; National Certified Medical Assistant (NCMA) as well as National Certified Medical Office Assistant (NCMOA) from the National Center of Competency Testing (NCCT); and Certified Clinical Medical Assistant (CCMA) and Certified Medical Administrative Assistant (CMAA) from the National Healthcareer Association (NHA). 1Currently in the US there is no legal requirement for medical assistants to be certified. Entry level medical assistants can work in all the states after completing their training on a diploma, certificate or degree program without the need to sit an exam to earn an extra qualification. Certification is voluntary, but there are benefits to having this credential and many people choose to take an exam to become certified upon graduating from an accredited medical assisting program. Benefits of certification include: The potential to earn a better average annual salary or higher hourly wage than those that are uncertified Validation that a medical assistant has acquired the best level of skills, competencies and knowledge in their profession Better career prospects and increased chances of promotion to management positions Due to recent changes in healthcare regulations, many practices are hiring medical assistants to perform Meaningful Use (MU) order entry tasks, as there are financial incentives to healthcare facilities that meet Electronic Health Records (EHR) goals. Medical assistants must be credentialed in order to perform this role, hence the growing demand for certified medical assistants in job postings Top Featured Schools Herzing University Associate of Science in Medical Assisting Learn More Keiser University Associate of Science in Medical Assisting Learn More Make Sure You are Eligible The different certifying bodies have their own requirements regarding who is eligible to apply to sit the certification exam, how long the credential is valid, and the conditions that must be met in order to recertify."

On February 2nd, 2012. The man who did my fiances taxes was named Aaron. While we were doing our income taxes, Aaron had told us that we had an option. We either pay one hundred and something dollars to get our income taxes back quicker, or we pay $68.00, which was the slower route to getting it back, but we didn't mind. The deal was, we would have to wait 7-15 days AFTER IRS received our papers, for our check to come in. Which was ok. Well, 21 days past since the day we filed on February 2nd, and we got a little worried. So we called Jackson Hewitt customer service to see where my fiances check might be."

Here’s one he gets a lot: Have the prosecutors who sent him to death row ever apologized?“Sorry? For what?” says Thompson. The 49-year-old is lean, almost skinny. He wears jeans, a T-shirt and running shoes and sports a thin mustache and soul patch, both stippled with gray. “ You tell me that. Tell me what the hell would they be sorry for. They tried to kill me. To apologize would mean they’re admitting the system is broken.”"

Levine Jun 27, 2013 at 1:58am Shayanna Jenkins-Hernandez is the fiancee of Aaron Hernandez, the New England Patriots tight end who was convicted on murder charges related to the death of Odin Lloyd. On April 19, 2017, Hernandez died after attempting suicide in his prison cell. He was serving a life sentence. Hernandez and Jenkins, who later took Hernadez’s last name despite never marrying him, were the parents of a 4-year-old daughter, Avielle Janelle Hernandez. Hernandez was charged with the murder of Odin Lloyd after being found dead a week ago with multiple gunshot wounds and with shell casings that matched the guns owned by Hernandez. The football star was not originally a suspect, but his refusal to cooperate with investigators turned them on to him. His fiancee, Jenkins, will play a crucial role in the investigation as investigators try to piece together all of the details of the case. Here’s what you need to know about Shayanna Jenkins.1.

Hovanian Homes has been around since about 1959, and builds about 10-15,000 homes per year pretty much across the US - generally midrange subdivisions rather than affordable or prestige level homes. Like any big company, they have had their share of problems and lawsuits - you can Google their name or check them on Wikipedia or Ripoff Report for more info on that issue. From my personal experience in and related to the construction business over the past 50 years, Hovanian does not have a terrible reputation, but a number of their subdivisions have been reported to be lemons - built on bad ground, next to a bombing range, next to airport, in swamps, never landscaped or provided with promised recreational facilities, etc. It is possible the quality of the subdivision depends on who at Hovanian manages the operation, because some of their subdivisions have been big successes and are a popular place to live."

According to a lawsuit Kyle Hunter filed Wednesday, Aug. 14, in Los Angeles Superior Court, Hunter applied for the job of weekend meteorologist in June 2011, but was never interviewed for the job. He alleges \"\"multiple qualified persons age 40 and over\"\" applied for the position, but they were also not interviewed. The suit describes Hunter as a meteorologist with 25 years of experience, with both a bachelor's and master's degree in meteorology, and a third bachelor's degree in political science with an emphasis on earth and space sciences from UCLA. It says he worked as a broadcaster in Los Angeles and San Diego. Read the complaint here. The lawsuit alleges Arnie Kleiner, KABC-TV president and general manager, and Cheryl Fair, KABC-TV vp and news director, \"\"had previously decided to hire a young, attractive female for this position -- preferably a blonde who physically resembled Indra Petersons ,\"\" the woman who previously held the job. Hunter suspects Bri Winkler, the woman who was ultimately hired, did not submit a formal application for the position. The suit goes on to list Winkler's qualifications, noting she was a recent college graduate who had worked on-air for one year in Amarillo, Texas, when she was hired in 2011."

AARP Insurance once stood for the American Association of Retired Persons: it is a non-government organization that has expanded access of its offerings to those that are not retired. The company is now referred to as AARP Insurance. AARP Insurance is a solely unbiased, non-profit entity that currently boasts more than 35 million members. In fact, AARP Insurance predicts that its membership will continue to increase: an astounding 70 million members, many of which will be baby boomers, are expected to sign on with AARP within the next decade. AARP had its early beginnings in the National Retired Teachers Association, also known as NRTA, an organization that was founded by Dr. Ethel Percy Andrus in the late 1940s. AARP and NRTA share many of the same organizational values: NRTA was first established to support and share Andrus’ values about aging productively and to supply all retired teachers with the necessary health insurance that they required during their later years. Later, NRTA branched out, evolving into AARP Insurance and thereby allowing for all people over the age of 50 to get in on the health insurance offerings. While NRTA still exists, it is now a smaller division of the larger AARP entity."

AARP has changed its fulfilling pharmacy several times over the years, and most of them have been satisfactory. Not Optum Rx. I will never order from this company again. Here’s what happened. On April 2, I called to request a refill and was quoted a price of $29.98 for a 90-day supply – the same price I had been paying for a long time. I was asked if I wished to use the credit card I had on file to pay this amount, and I said yes. A few days later, I went online to pay my credit card bill. There I saw the charge I was expecting, but right below it was another charge for $20.99. What is that, I wondered?"

"text": "Home > Deals & Promos > What Is AARP And Is Membership Worth The Cost? ( Important Facts)When my husband started getting membership applications from AARP around his 49 th birthday, he was the laughing stock of the family. “ Ha, ha, dad,” the kids would jeer. “ You’re officially old .” Not wanting to admit his advancing years, he threw the offers in the trash. A few years later, the same mailings started coming with my name on them. But before I tossed, I remembered a hotel clerk once asking me, “Do you have an AARP or AAA membership?” and wondering – What is AARP? So I opened the mailing to see what the American Association of Retired Persons had to offer.

"text": "Last Updated Nov 3, 2009 4:26 PM ESTWhile a ferocious debate rages in Washington over the future of health care, you have a more immediate problem: how to pay your medical bills without going broke — better yet, without having to give up your tennis club membership. For anyone not covered under an employer's policy, the answer usually lies in the search for an affordable health insurance plan, and, as you age, Medicare supplemental insurance (or Medigap) and long-term-care insurance. Anyone over the age of 50 (over 65 for Medigap) is eligible to buy these three products through AARP, the advocacy organization, which is also a major player in the insurance industry. The organization collects $400 million a year in fees for lending its name to various private policies, but since AARP’s financial products haven’t always lived up to the group’s mission of looking out for its 40 million members, Money Watch.com has investigated how good these policies are. After talking to nearly a dozen experts and comparing quotes from more than 50 companies, here’s our conclusion: AARP health policies, while rarely the least expensive, are competitive, and might be the best plan for you if you have health problems. Its long-term-care insurance deserves checking out because of its low rates and the financial strength of its partner, Genworth Financial. However, it’s hard to say whether any one insurance policy is absolutely the best one for you for two reasons: Whether you’ll be able to buy these types of policies, and at what price, often depends on your health. Also, each state has its own regulations on the type of coverage insurers can offer and how they can choose which customers to accept. AARP Health Insurance Affordable health insurance has been part of AARP’s mission since the group began more than 50 years ago. Ethel Percy Andrus, AARP’s founder, was appalled that retired teachers had inadequate health care coverage. “"

I do not know why paying AARP member have to get in line behind non-paying member for AARP service. I had to go to HR Block to have my taxes filled out, because this was the only time my daughter could get off work. I have to pay $279.00 for getting my taxes filled out at this place while non-member not pay AARP get their taxes filled out free. Something need to be done if you all plan to keep current members. I know I am not the only person having problems with young people using this free service to save money and old people are having to go other places and pay to have their taxes done.

No, it wasn't a belated B-day card. It was my AARP Membership Card!I was warned the American Association of Retired Persons would find me when I turned 50, and they have. Much as I tried to hide, they hunted me down, just like all my other friends who turned 50 this year. The AARP is one of the most influential lobbying groups in Washington, D. C. Traditionally, people 65+ had the most consistent voting block in the country--the highest percentage of turnout for any demographic. It's probably still true, though young people surged to the polls last year in their greatest numbers ever. Why would I join at 50? My normal retirement age for Social Security is 67. Aren't they jumping the gun?"

En español | Q: I'm trying to figure out what Social Security benefits I might qualify for. But it's confusing — there are so many different kinds. Can you explain what they are and how they work? A: We tend to think of Social Security benefits as going just to retired workers. But the more than 59 million Americans who receive monthly payments from Social Security include children, widows and widowers who've lost working mates, disabled people who can no longer work, and even the former spouses of breadwinners. Subscribe to the AARP Money Newsletter Q: But retirees are the biggest group, right? A: Yes. They number about 38 million. Generally, you need 10 years of work in a job in which you pay Social Security taxes to be eligible for retirement benefits."

"text": "\"Feb42014SHOULD YOU JOIN AARP? During the last year I’ve read a few articles posted on other retirement blogs and in magazines asking this same question. Should you join AARP? All of the articles, like most information about retirement, focus on the financial aspects of becoming an AARP member. In other words, are the discounts on travel accommodations, insurance and restaurants worth the $16 per year membership fee? Every article ends up saying for the most part you can get the discounts anyway just by virtue of your age as many companies give senior discounts starting at age 55 or 60. So, instead of flashing your AARP membership card, simply flash your driver license with birth date and you receive the discount without spending an extra $16 a year to get it. If you’re looking at AARP strictly for discounts, this is probably true, unless you’re in the 50-54 age range, in which case, joining AARP at 50 may get you some discounts you won’t otherwise receive. But, I didn’t join AARP for the discounts. And, I think there’s a financial aspect being overlooked in these articles."

How to ensure good health care, find the right living situation, and handle legal questions is often complicated for Foreign Service families by being posted abroad. Whether due to short visits during R&R or home leave or getting caught up in hectic preparations for an overseas assignment, taking the time to do contingency planning with parents can be challenging. While it is difficult to discuss the issues of aging, the family who has discussed the options and agreed on plans will be better able to handle situations that may arise. It will be worth the time taken if there is an emergency. Ideally, the parents take control of their own situations and make decisions in advance of an emergency. They should investigate the types of retirement options and decide which is most appropriate, make informed decisions about life-sustaining medical care, and make sure those documents, instructions, and powers of attorney are available to those who must take responsibility in an emergency. The American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) recommends that elderly people use a Document Locator List (find checklist examples in the Prepare to Care guide on the AARP website) to make sure their papers are in order. This list can then be given to the person (s) who will be responsible for them in an emergency."

AARP Insurance once stood for the American Association of Retired Persons: it is a non-government organization that has expanded access of its offerings to those that are not retired. The company is now referred to as AARP Insurance. AARP Insurance is a solely unbiased, non-profit entity that currently boasts more than 35 million members. In fact, AARP Insurance predicts that its membership will continue to increase: an astounding 70 million members, many of which will be baby boomers, are expected to sign on with AARP within the next decade. AARP had its early beginnings in the National Retired Teachers Association, also known as NRTA, an organization that was founded by Dr. Ethel Percy Andrus in the late 1940s. AARP and NRTA share many of the same organizational values: NRTA was first established to support and share Andrus’ values about aging productively and to supply all retired teachers with the necessary health insurance that they required during their later years. Later, NRTA branched out, evolving into AARP Insurance and thereby allowing for all people over the age of 50 to get in on the health insurance offerings. While NRTA still exists, it is now a smaller division of the larger AARP entity."

"text": "The following post was written by a man named Steve Herman. You can see the original post here . We posted it on MOGUL, however, because we cannot wait for retirement, and for our members who are already at that wonderful phase in their life, we thought the following information would be greatly helpful for you: As I was waiting in line behind an older gentleman at Wendy's recently, I heard him ask for his senior discount. The girl at the register apologized and charged him less. When I asked the man what the discount was, he told me that seniors over age 55 -- get 10% off everything on the menu, every day. ( But you need to ASK for your discount. ) Being of 'that' age myself, I figured I might as well ask for the discount too. This incident prompted me to do some research, and I came across a list of restaurants, supermarkets, department stores, travel deals, and other types of offers giving various discounts with different age requirements. I was actually surprised to see how many there are and how some of them start at the young age of 50 . This list may not only be useful for you, but for your friends and family too."

"text": "\"Feb42014SHOULD YOU JOIN AARP? During the last year I’ve read a few articles posted on other retirement blogs and in magazines asking this same question. Should you join AARP? All of the articles, like most information about retirement, focus on the financial aspects of becoming an AARP member. In other words, are the discounts on travel accommodations, insurance and restaurants worth the $16 per year membership fee? Every article ends up saying for the most part you can get the discounts anyway just by virtue of your age as many companies give senior discounts starting at age 55 or 60. So, instead of flashing your AARP membership card, simply flash your driver license with birth date and you receive the discount without spending an extra $16 a year to get it. If you’re looking at AARP strictly for discounts, this is probably true, unless you’re in the 50-54 age range, in which case, joining AARP at 50 may get you some discounts you won’t otherwise receive. But, I didn’t join AARP for the discounts. And, I think there’s a financial aspect being overlooked in these articles."

"text": "\"All About Social Security Credits You earn them by working, and they'll determine when you can receive benefitsby Stan Hinden | Comments: 0Istock Social Security credits should be factored into your retirement financial planning to receive maximum benefits. Q. In reading up on financing a retirement, I've been running across references to a need for Social Security credits. What are these credits? How do you earn them? And how many do you need to qualify for Social Security benefits? A. Basically, Social Security credits are accounting units that you earn when you work and pay Social Security taxes. In 2015, you get one credit for every $1,220 that you earn in wages. By earning $4,880, you get four credits, which is the maximum you can receive in one year. Subscribe to the AARP Money Newsletter for more on work, retirement, and finances Down the road, the number of credits you've accrued over your working life will become very important for you: They'll determine whether you can qualify for three types of Social Security payments: retirement benefits, disability benefits and survivor benefits for your family members. Credits are a key part of how Social Security functions: The system provides \"\"earned benefits\"\" — payments don't just show up in your bank account once you reach a certain age."

If I die tomorrow, will she get my full Social Security benefit or will she have to wait until she reaches a certain age? Social Security For Dummies: The easy way to get a handle on it A. Well, you haven't told us your age or your wife's age, so it's difficult to know what may happen in your case. However, the Social Security folks operate under some pretty clear rules that indicate she may have to wait. The basic rule is that a widow can receive a 100 percent survivor benefit — essentially her husband's basic Social Security payment — if she waits until her full retirement age before beginning benefits. That age is now 66 for people born from 1943 to 1954. Full retirement age is gradually increasing for people born in later years, and will reach 67 for birthdates in 1960 and later.

"text": "States Turn to Managed Care To Constrain Medicaid Long-Term Care Costs By the Innovations Exchange Team Introduction At least 26 States now contract with managed care organizations (MCOs) to provide long-term services and supports (LTSS) for older adults and people with disabilities. MCOs receive a monthly payment per member to provide comprehensive care and assume the risk of managing the cost of care within that capitated rate. The goal of managed LTSS is to improve the quality of care for people who need these services while containing costs. In addition, many of these programs create financial incentives for MCOs to keep individuals in their communities rather than in more expensive institutional settings such as nursing homes. In fiscal year 2011, Medicaid spent $136 billion on LTSS, representing one-third of all Medicaid spending. While Medicaid spending on noninstitutional LTSS has increased in recent years, institutional LTSS represents 72 percent of Medicaid LTSS spending, including $52 billion spent on nursing home care in fiscal year 2011. To learn how States are implementing managed LTSS and developing alternative approaches, the Innovations Exchange interviewed two experts: Lynda Flowers, JD, MSN, RN, Senior Strategic Policy Advisor for the Health Team of AARP's Public Policy Institute Larry Polivka, Ph D, Executive Director of the Claude Pepper Center and Scholar in Residence at the Claude Pepper Foundation at Florida State University Innovations Exchange: What is the impetus for States to establish managed LTSS? Lynda Flowers: The effort is being driven by the need to improve coordination of long-term care and acute-care services, produce better care outcomes for consumers, and reduce costs. What is the goal of providing alternatives to nursing home care such as community-based services? Flowers: In setting up managed LTSS, the aim is to keep more people in their homes and communities, which is generally what consumers prefer."

The rehab, which is headed by CEO Andrew Spanwick, currently operates facilities in Astoria, Bellevue and Long Beach, Washington, as well as its headquarters in West Hollywood, California. The first two are outpatient only, while Long Beach and West Hollywood both offer residential treatment. Accommodations and Food Accommodations and food service are more or less the same across their different centers; there are both private and semi-private rooms (though clients will have no more than one roommate) with queen size beds and peaceful light blue and off-white interior design. West Hollywood’s co-ed inpatient center has 26 beds available for those 18 and up, and offers door-to-door transportation for those who join its programs. Another perk: it’s pet friendly. Food service at We Ho is catered; the Long Beach location has an on-site kitchen and serves up healthy meals. Treatment and Staff Klean inpatient programs last between 30 and 90 days and outpatient programs are 12 weeks; weekly sessions vary by outpatient track and by facility. All of Klean’s centers specialize in both chemical dependency and co-occurring disorders, have on-site detox services and are based on the principles of the 12 steps."

"text": "The Making of Army STARRS: An Overview Behavioral health and suicide are issues that affect Americans from all walks of life. The Army Study to Assess Risk and Resilience in Servicemembers (Army STARRS) is an unprecedented research study dealing with a topic critical to the Army and to the country—suicide prevention. Historically the suicide rate among Army personnel has been below that of the civilian population. Since 2002, however, the suicide rate among soldiers has risen significantly, reaching record levels and prompting the Army to form a partnership with the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) to seek independent academic scientists who could design and implement a sufficiently large and complex research study to address the issue. The NIMH awarded a grant to a research team of investigators from the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, Harvard Medical School, the University of Michigan, and the University of California, San Diego to design and conduct Army STARRS. Army STARRS is the largest study of mental health risk and resilience ever conducted among military personnel and, following a one-year no-cost extension, will run through June 2015. Each of the components of the study is confidential and strictly voluntary. Since the study began in 2009, Army STARRS has worked at more than 75 locations in the United States and around the globe. The research team has collected data from more than 100,000 soldier volunteers in all phases of Army service including new soldiers in their first week in the Army, established soldiers, soldiers pre- and post-deployment (see below), soldiers in theater, and soldiers who have been hospitalized for self-harm (see below). The Army STARRS data-collection phase ended in April 2014 and the research team has now turned their focus to data analyses."

May avoids questions over whether MPs will vote on Syrian action Chester Bennington has died by hanging himself, it has been reported, on the birthday of his close friend Chris Cornell who also died by suicide in May. At age 41, the Linkin Park lead singer's passing has shocked the music community, in which he was known as one of the leading pioneers of the nu-metal genre. According to prevention experts, his death arriving on the late Cornell's 53rd birthday may bear some importance. As reported by Mashable, these experts believe that momentous occasions such as birthdays and anniversaries can be triggers of intense emotions for people who have lost loved ones to suicide - increasing that person's very own risk. “Anniversaries bring up the fact that the person isn't with us anymore,” says Julie Cerel, president of the American Association of Suicidology said. “ It becomes a time of risk for people who are hopeless and hurting. ”Chester Bennington dead: Linkin Park singer remembered14show all Chester Bennington dead: Linkin Park singer remembered While there's no official word hinting that Bennington's death was in any way due to the date, he had previously spoken openly about his struggles with depression and suicidal thoughts. The Linkin Park frontman grew close as friends with Soundgarden's Cornell after touring together in the late 2000s. Bennington performed a rousing rendition of Leonard Cohen song 'Hallelujah' at his memorial service after paying touching tribute to his friend on Twitter in a letter which stated: “I can't imagine a world without you in it."

I have also read testimonials such as “AA saved me from myself and I would be dead without it.” I have read that AA is willy-nilly fear-based faith healing. I have read an experience written by a man who was sober for 26 years, who quit going to AA, drank, and lost everything. I have read that members of AA told other members to stop taking their medications, and as a result, committed suicide. The above anecdota are probably all, to an extent, somehow, true. But I continue to find myself a stranger in a strange land when I enter comment sections. That’s not to say I don’t enjoy open forums of expression—I’d probably miss them if they disappeared, after all they’re quite amusing—but what I am sensitive to are people forming their opinions based on anecdotoids and ad hominem diatribes from ungrounded and unfounded sources."

[ 4] [5] [6] This means it increases the concentrations of the neurotransmitters serotonin and norepinephrine in the body and the brain. First introduced by Wyeth in 1993, now marketed by Pfizer, it is licensed for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), panic disorder and social phobia. [ 7] [8]A comparative meta-analysis of 12 major antidepressants found that venlafaxine, mirtazapine, escitalopram, and sertraline were significantly more efficacious than duloxetine, fluoxetine, fluvoxamine, paroxetine, and reboxetine. [ 9]The rate of life-threatening or lethal outcomes for suicidal overdoses of venlafaxine is lower than for the TCAs, MAOIs, and bupropion but higher than almost all of the SSRIs, and equal to citalopram. [ 10] It is metabolised in the body into another antidepressant drug called desvenlafaxine ( O -desmethylvenlafaxine) which is also sold as an antidepressant, under the brand name Pristiq. [ 11]In 2007, venlafaxine was the sixth most commonly prescribed antidepressant on the U. S. retail market, with 17.2 million prescriptions.

At moderate doses (>150 mg/day), it acts on serotonergic and noradrenergic systems, whereas at high doses (>300 mg/day), it also affects dopaminergic neurotransmission. ["

Buchman summed up the group's philosophy in a few sentences: \"\"All people are sinners\"\"; \"\"All sinners can be changed\"\"; \"\"Confession is a prerequisite to change\"\"; \"\"The change can access God directly\"\"; \"\"Miracles are again possible\"\"; and \"\"The change must change others.\"\" ["

A complex mind/body illness, depression can be treated with drugs and/or therapy. Definition A depressive disorder is an illness that involves the body, mood, and thoughts. It interferes with daily life, normal functioning, and causes pain for both the person with the disorder and those who care about him or her. A depressive disorder is not the same as a passing blue mood. It is not a sign of personal weakness or a condition that can be willed or wished away. People with a depressive illness cannot merely \"\"pull themselves together\"\" and get better. Without treatment, symptoms can last for weeks, months, or years. Depression is a common but serious illness, and most people who experience it need treatment to get better. Appropriate treatment, however, can help most people who suffer from depression."

A recent form of antidepressant medication - Prozac Serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor, Venlafaxine For detail of individual antidepressants see: List of antidepressants An antidepressant, in the most common usage, is a medication taken to alleviate clinical depression or dysthymia ('milder' depression). Several groups of drugs are particularly associated with the term, notably MAOIs and tricyclics (whose serendipitous discovery and psychiatric use dates from the 1950s) as well as SSRIs and more recent variations developed by pharmaceutical companies. These medications are now amongst the most commonly prescribed by psychiatrists and general practitioners, and their effectiveness and adverse effects are the subject of many studies and competing claims. A number of other antidepressant drugs, notably St John's Wort, are also widely studied and used. Antidepressants are generally, if not in pharmacology, considered separately from stimulants. They are usually taken as a course over several weeks, months or years, and have a delayed onset of therapeutic action. Drugs used for an immediate euphoric effect only are not generally considered antidepressants."

"text": "\"~ Delta-tocotrienol - The 21st Century Vitamin E? From Dr. Michael T. Murray's Natural Facts Newsletter. Reprinted with permission. Introduction The vitamin E family consists of four tocopherols and four tocotrienols each designated as alpha, beta, gamma, or delta based upon slight differences in attached molecules. Of these naturally occurring vitamin E compounds, alpha-tocopherol (alpha T) has emerged has the most potent of these compounds in terms of vitamin E activity. However, newer information indicates that for other activities including antioxidant, cholesterol lowering, and anti-cancer effects that the tocotrienols (T3s), especially delta-tocotrienol (delta T3) exert more profound effects.1 So, while in terms of vitamin E activity the order of potency would be:< [alpha T > beta T > gamma T > alpha T3 > delta T > gamma T3 > delta T3The order of potency for acting as an antioxidant, cholesterol-lowering agent, and in cancer prevention may be just the opposite:delta T3 > gamma T3 > delta T > gamma T > alpha T3 > beta T > alpha TWhat is the difference between a tocopherol and a tocotrienol? The difference is that the tocotrienol has 3 double bonds within the main body of the molecule. Just like as in polyunsaturated oils, the presence of these double bonds give the tocotrienols greater fluidity and make it much easier for the body to incorporate them into cell membranes, especially delta-tocotrienol.2 Differences between the various individual members of the tocopherol and tocotrienol family are due to different molecules found at the R1, R2, and R3 positions. Compound R1 R2 R3alpha-tocopherol alpha-tocotrienol CH3 CH3 CH3beta-tocopherol beta-tocotrienol CH3 H CH3gamma-tocopherol gamma-tocotrienol H CH3 CH3delta-tocopherol delta-tocotrienol H H CH3What are the health benefits of tocotrienols? In comparing the health benefits of the tocopherols vs. the tocotrienols I will limit the discussion to the following areas: antioxidant effects, anticancer effects, cholesterol lowering effects, and effects on other aspects of cardiovascular disease."

"text": "<< Back to January 2011The Beneficial Omega-6 Fatty Acid January 2011By Kirk Stokel Most health-conscious people already know about the broad-spectrum benefits of omega-3 fatty acids, particularly EPA/DHA from fish and other sources. The typical American diet, however, contains too much omega-6 fatty acids. Health-conscious individuals try to reduce this type of fat in their diet. Sources of excess omega-6s include most vegetable oils such as corn oil, safflower oil, soybean oil, as well as poultry and eggs. There is one omega-6, however, called gamma linolenic acid (GLA) with an impressive set of disease-fighting powers. New research reveals this nutrient’s power to combat chronic inflammation, eczema, dermatitis, asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, atherosclerosis, diabetes, obesity—even cancer! 1-8Most people don’t obtain sufficient quantities of it owing to dietary deficiency, and also because the enzyme in the body governing its metabolism becomes less active with age. 9In this article, we uncover the latest research on gamma linolenic acid and provide compelling evidence for its ability to combat a range of chronic age-related disorders—alone and in combination with EPA/DHA. GLA: An Anti-Inflammatory Essential Fat GLA (gamma linolenic acid) is a plant-derived omega-6 most abundant in seeds of an Eastern flower known as borage. 1,10,11 Although a member of the omega-6 family, it’s metabolized differently than other omega-6s."

The suicide rate for males was three times higher than the rate for females (17.9 versus 5.3 per 100,000). Although suicide deaths affect almost all age groups, those aged 40 to 59 had the highest rates. Married people had a lower suicide rate than those who were single, divorced or widowed. Suicide is a major cause of premature and preventable death. It is estimated, that in 2009 alone, there were about 100,000 years of potential life lost to Canadians under the age of 75 as a result of suicides. Research shows that mental illness is the most important risk factor for suicide; and that more than 90% of people who commit suicide have a mental or addictive disorder. 1, 2 Depression is the most common illness among those who die from suicide, with approximately 60% suffering from this condition. 3, 4 No single determinant, including mental illness, is enough on its own to cause a suicide."

For techniques for the safe handling, possession, and storage of firearms, see gun safety. For the debate about gun control in the U. S., see Gun politics in the United States. Gun control (or firearms regulation) [1] [2] is the set of laws or policies that regulate the manufacture, sale, transfer, possession, modification, or use of firearms by civilians. Most countries have a restrictive firearm guiding policy, with only a few legislations being categorized as permissive. [ 3] Jurisdictions that regulate access to firearms typically restrict access to only certain categories of firearms and then to restrict the categories of persons who will be granted a firearms license to have access to a firearm. In some countries such as the United States, gun control may be legislated at either a federal level or a local state level.

Africa is made up of ethnic groups with different languages and beliefs, hence their choices of names differ. Traditional African given names often reflect the circumstances at the time of the birth of the Child. Typical African names such as Ogechukwu “God’s time”, Esi “Sunday”, Khamisi “Thursday”, Mwanajuma “Friday”, Uka “also means Sunday, and Wekesa “harvest time” refer to the time or day when the child was born. Other names reflect the birth order of the newborn, for example Okpala “first male Child”, Kunto “third born”, Ada “First female Child”, Nsonowa “seventh born”, and Wasswa “first of twins”. Some names describe the parents’ reaction to the birth (such as Anuli, Kayode, Gwandoya, Abeni and Monifa) while others are reflections of the desired characteristics of the new-born (like Yejide, Dada, Chiumbo and Zuberi). Although as a result of colonisation by foreign countries, lots of African baby names are now of European origin, in this article, we’ve decided to publish a collection of Unique African baby names you’ve probably never heard of before.

It is sometimes stated that the 'mean' means average. This is incorrect if \"\"mean\"\" is taken in the specific sense of \"\"arithmetic mean\"\" as there are different types of averages: the mean, median, and mode. For instance, average house prices almost always use the median value for the average. These three types of averages are all measures of locations. Other simple statistical analyses use measures of spread, such as range, interquartile range, or standard deviation . For a real-valued random variable X, the mean is the expectation of X. Note that not every probability distribution has a defined mean (or variance ); see the Cauchy distribution for an example. For a data set, the mean is the sum of the observations divided by the number of observations. The mean is often quoted along with the standard deviation: the mean describes the central location of the data, and the standard deviation describes the spread. An alternative measure of dispersion is the mean deviation, equivalent to the average absolute deviation from the mean."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Antiaromaticity is a characteristic of a cyclic molecule with a π electron system that has higher energy due to the presence of 4n electrons in it. Unlike aromatic compounds, which follow Hückel's rule ( [4 n +2] π electrons) [1] and are highly stable, antiaromatic compounds are highly unstable and highly reactive. To avoid the instability of antiaromaticity, molecules may change shape, becoming non-planar and therefore breaking some of the π interactions. In contrast to the diamagnetic ring current present in aromatic compounds, antiaromatic compounds have a paramagnetic ring current, which can be observed by NMR spectroscopy. Examples of antiaromatic compounds. A: pentalene; B: biphenylene; C: cyclopentadienyl cation Examples of antiaromatic compounds are pentalene (A), biphenylene (B), cyclopentadienyl cation (C). The prototypical example of antiaromaticity, cyclobutadiene, is the subject of debate, with some scientists arguing that antiaromaticity is not a major factor contributing to its destabilization. [ 2]Cyclooctatetraene is an example of a molecule adopting a non-planar geometry to avoid the destabilization that results from antiaromaticity. If it were planar, it would have a single eight-electron π system around the ring, but it instead adopts a boat-like shape with four individual π bonds. [ 3] Because antiaromatic compounds are often short-lived and difficult to work with experimentally, antiaromatic destabilization energy is often modeled by simulation rather than by experimentation.

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search For other uses, see Force field (disambiguation). A force field is used to minimize the bond stretching energy of this ethane molecule. In the context of molecular modeling, a force field (a special case of energy functions or interatomic potentials; not to be confused with force field in classical physics) refers to the functional form and parameter sets used to calculate the potential energy of a system of atoms or coarse-grained particles in molecular mechanics and molecular dynamics simulations. The parameters of the energy functions may be derived from experiments in physics or chemistry, calculations in quantum mechanics, or both. All-atom force fields provide parameters for every type of atom in a system, including hydrogen, while united-atom interatomic potentials treat the hydrogen and carbon atoms in each methyl group (terminal methyl) and each methylene bridge as one interaction center. Coarse-grained potentials, which are often used in long-time simulations of macromolecules such as proteins, nucleic acids, and multi-component complexes, provide even cruder representations for higher computing efficiency.

The basic functional form of potential energy in molecular mechanics includes bonded terms for interactions of atoms that are linked by covalent bonds, and nonbonded (also termed noncovalent) terms that describe the long-range electrostatic and van der Waals forces. The specific decomposition of the terms depends on the force field, but a general form for the total energy in an additive force field can be written as where the components of the covalent and noncovalent contributions are given by the following summations: The bond and angle terms are usually modeled by quadratic energy functions that do not allow bond breaking. A more realistic description of a covalent bond at higher stretching is provided by the more expensive Morse potential."

Introduction - In crystals composed of polar molecules, the effec- tive molecular dipole contains information about the interactions between the molecul s. A knowledge of th effective dipole moment is also needed to interpret infrared and electronic Stark spectra. However, in view of the large long-range electric fields due to the dipoles in such molecular crystals, it is questionable - whether one may retain the usual molecular cry-sta T approximation that the molecules are only slightly - - perturbed by their mutual interactions. - - - Here we show how this approximation may be cir- cumvented by using ab initio mo]ecitlar orbital (MO) calculations on the isolated molecule in an electric - field in conjunction with local field theor~r. The - method is used-to estimate the effective dipole moment of HCM in its two crystalline forms. The ad- -vantage of studying HCN is th~it it crystallizes with only- one molecule p r-primitive unit cell [I], so that -- its effective dipole is simply a multiple of the local - fleld.

Table of Contents Introduction Ab Initio Semiempirical Modeling the solid state Molecular Mechanics Molecular Dynamics Statistical Mechanics Thermodynamics Structure-Property Relationships Symbolic Calculations Artifical Intelligence How to do a computational research project Visualization Further information Introduction Recent years have seen an increase in the number of people doing theoretical chemistry. Many of these newcomers are part time theoreticians, who work on other aspects of chemistry as well. This increase has been facilitated by the development of computer software which is increasingly easy to use. It is now easy enough to do computational chemistry that you do not have to know what you are doing to do a computation. As a result, many people don't understand even the most basic description of how the calculation is done and are therefore sucessufully doing a lot of work which is, frankly, garbage. Many universities are now offering classes, which are an overview of various aspects of computational chemistry. Since we have had many people wanting to start doing computations before they have had even an introductory course, this document has been written as step one in understanding what computational chemistry is about. Note that this is not intended to teach the fundamentals of chemistry, quantum mechanics or mathematics, only most basic description of how chemical computations are done. The term theoretical chemistry may be defined as the mathematical description of chemistry. The term computational chemistry is usually used when a mathematical method is sufficiently well developed that it can be automated for implementation on a computer."

"text": "Ab Initio Definition: Latin: from the start; from the beginning. Related Terms: Void or Void Ab Initio , Voidable A proposition in law that as within a court's jurisdiction, a certain document which purports to affect legal rights, or an act which purports to affect legal rights, is or was nul and void from the start, from its beginning, because of some vitiating element. Typically, documents or acts which are ab initio cannot be fixed and where a Court declares a document or an act to be void ab initio, the parties are returned to their respective positions at the time of the ab initio event. Ab initio (void) is often contrasted with voidable, such documents which become void only as of the date of the judicial declaration to this effect and not, as with ab initio, as if they never existed, ever. An insurer facing a claim from an insured who had deceived the insurer on a material fact, would claim that the insurance contract was void ab initio; that it was null and void from the get-go; that since there was at law no enforceable contract, the insurer ought not to have to pay. A contract that is found later to be illegal, never really a contract to begin with, it is said to be void ab initio. A contract that compels someone to do something that it ilegal is void ab initio, from the get go. It never was, in law, a contract as it were.

Phosphorus pentachloride (PCl 5 ), sulfur hexafluoride (SF 6 ), chlorine trifluoride (Cl F 3 ), the chlorite (Cl O 2 −) ion, and the triiodide (I 3 −) ion are examples of hypervalent molecules.

Musher in 1969 as molecules having central atoms of group 15–18 in any valence other than the lowest (i.e. 3, 2, 1, 0 for Groups 15, 16, 17, 18 respectively, based on the octet rule ). [ 1]Several specific classes of hypervalent molecules exist: Hypervalent iodine compounds are useful reagents in organic chemistry (e.g. Dess–Martin periodinane)Tetra-, penta- and hexacoordinated phosphorus, silicon, and sulfur compounds (ex. PCl 5, PF 5, SF 6, sulfuranes and persulfuranes)Noble gas compounds (ex. xenon tetrafluoride, Xe F 4)Halogen polyfluorides (ex. Cl F 5)N-X-L notation [ edit]N-X-L nomenclature, introduced in 1980, [2] is often used to classify hypervalent compounds of main group elements, where: N represents the number of valence electrons X is the chemical symbol of the central atom L the number of ligands to the central atom Examples of N-X-L nomenclature include: Xe F 2, 10-Xe-2PCl 5, 10-P-5SF 6, 12-S-6IF 7, 14-I-7History and controversy [ edit]The debate over the nature and classification of hypervalent molecules goes back to Gilbert N. Lewis and Irving Langmuir and the debate over the nature of the chemical bond in the 1920s. [ 3] Lewis maintained the importance of the two-center two-electron (2c-2e) bond in describing hypervalence, thus using expanded octets to account for such molecules. Langmuir, on the other hand, upheld the dominance of the octet rule and preferred the use of ionic bonds to account for hypervalence without violating the rule (e.g. SF 4 2+, 2F − ). In the late 1920s and 1930s, Sugden argued for the existence of a two-center one-electron (2c-1e) bond and thus rationalized bonding in hypervalent molecules without the need for expanded octets or ionic bond character; this was poorly accepted at the time.

Eriksson b Show morehttps://doi.org/10.1016/S1010-6030 (02)00180-6 Get rights and content Abstract The formation of thymine dimers in DNA is investigated by means of density functional theory (DFT) techniques. While it is found that a thermally induced [2+2] cycloaddition reaction proceeds via a very high energy transition state (80–88 kcal/mol above the reactant complex), the energy barrier for UV light induced formation—explored within the time-dependent DFT formalism—is only a few kilocalories per mol. As such, these results serve as an illustrative example of how UV radiation may induce DNA lesions. For the reactant complex, the calculated vertical excitation energy corresponding to the S 1 ←S 0 transition lies in the far-UV region, in accordance with experimental data. Previous article Next article Keywords Time-dependent density functional theory UV light Thymine dimer formation Excitation energies1. Introduction Exposure of DNA to UV radiation has a mutagenic effect on cellular systems. A major type of UV light induced damage is the formation of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (Pyr Pyr) between adjacent pyrimidine bases in DNA exposed to UV radiation in the range of 200–300 nm (far-UV) [1,2]. These lesions are harmful to cells since they inhibit the enzymes carrying out DNA replication and transcription, and are believed to be the main source of carcinogenic mutations due to miscoding during replication. Repair of damaged DNA occurs either by photoreactivation through concurrent or subsequent exposure to near-UV and visible light (300–500 nm), or by nucleotide- or base-excision repair pathways [3–5]. In the photoreactivation process, the Pyr Pyr dimers are restored back into individual pyrimidine bases in a reaction catalyzed by the enzyme DNA photolyase ( Fig. 1 ). The commonly accepted model for the photorepair mechanism proposes that the dimer splitting is a consequence of a single electron transfer from the enzyme to the dimer [6–8]; a mechanism recently verified by quantum chemical calculations [9].

Unpaid interns and foreign workers also have new protections. Here’s a look at a five new laws in place now. MANDATORY PAID SICK LEAVELaw: AB 1522. Mandatory paid sick leave; allows employer to cap at three days a year and six days of accrual. What it says: Beginning on July 1, employers must pay sick leave to any employee who works for at least 30 days within one year. It applies to full-time, part-time, temporary, migrant and seasonal employees."

Posted on Oct 26, 2013 | 3 comments421 Flares Twitter Facebook Google+ Pin It Share Stumble Upon Reddit Buffer At What Body Fat % Will You See Your Abs? Measuring your body fat percentage is a useful tool to track your progress on your journey to get six-pack abs. Most people who've tried to achieve a 6-pack realized that abdominal exercises don’t burn fat off your stomach. Abs are made in the kitchen, not just in the gym. It doesn't really matter how much you work out because if you don’t eat right and achieve a calorie deficit, your abs will remain buried under a layer of fat. Once you realized that hits you need to reduce your body fat percentage to see your abs, one of the biggest questions that pops into your mind is, “how low do I have to get my body fat percentage to see my abs?” It’s a tough question and the answer may be different for men than women. Here's what I'd recommend: First, get familiar with some benchmarks for body fat levels. Here's a Body Fat Rating Scale that I created with my research from scientific publications and personal experience : How To Interpret The Chart You're not doomed to get fatter as you get older, so don't use that as an excuse But in the general population (excluding fitness models and bodybuilders), older people have more body fat in general."

Benefits of Investing in ABSTypes of Assets That Back Securities Interest Rates and Yields on ABSCredit Quality and Credit Enhancement How Are ABS Structured? Prepayment Models Asset-Backed Versus Other Fixed-Income Securities Market Risks Tax Status of ABSLegal Investment Status Minimum Investments, Transaction Costs and Marketability Glossary Prepayment Models Investors in ABS are typically concerned about the likelihood and extent of prepayment. That is, they worry about receiving all or part of the principal of the underlying debt before it is due (in the case of amortizing assets) or before it is expected (in the case of nonamortizing assets). Determining the most likely prepayment scenario is critical to making an investment decision with a reasonable expectation about a security’s life—which, in turn, affects the likely yield. What follows are explanations of the key prepayment conventions used by the ABS market. Investors should bear in mind that prepayment models do not predict actual prepayment behavior, but instead provide a common methodology for expressing prepayment activity. Moreover, since the ABS market has existed only since the mid-1980s, prepayment models, which are based on historical performance, are likely to evolve further. Constant Prepayment Rate (CPR)Also known as conditional prepayment rate, the CPR measures prepayments as a percentage of the current outstanding loan balance. It is always expressed as a compound annual rate—a 10% CPR means that 10% of the pool’s current loan balance pool is likely to prepay over the next year."

"text": "\"Home »Math How to Find an Exponential Equation With Two Points By Chris Deziel; Updated March 13, 2018If you know two points that fall on a particular exponential curve, you can define the curve by solving the general exponential function using those points. In practice, this means substituting the points for y and x in the equation y = ab x. The procedure is easier if the x-value for one of the points is 0, which means the point is on the y-axis. If neither point has a zero x-value, the process for solving for x and y is a tad more complicated. Why Exponential Functions Are Important Many important systems follow exponential patterns of growth and decay. For example, the number of bacteria in a colony usually increases exponentially, and ambient radiation in the atmosphere following a nuclear event usually decreases exponentially. By taking data and plotting a curve, scientists are in a better position to make predictions. From a Pair of Points to a Graph Any point on a two-dimensional graph can be represented by two numbers, which are usually written in the in the form (x, y), where x defines the horizontal distance from the origin and y represents the vertical distance. For example, the point (2, 3) is two units to the right of the y-axis and three units above the x-axis. On the other hand, the point (-2, -3) is two units to the left of the y-axis. and three units below the x-axis."

Laws govern rules of right-of-way at controlled intersections, where trafffic signs and signals are present. For example, in making a turn on a red light, traffic must yield the right-of-way to pedestrians and bicyclists within a crosswalk and to other traffic using the intersection. Failure to yield to emergency vehicles may result in loss of life to those not on the road. As a driver, when you first hear the sirens, you should immediately look to pull over to the right and come to a complete stop. When you first see the emergency vehicle coming up behind you with emergency flashing lights, immediately pull over to the right and stop. Make sure you come to a complete stop and not continue down the road at a slow pace, as the emergency vehicle might have to turn right soon.

Well-Ordering Principle: says that a set of positive integers has a smallest element Division Algorithm: If a and m are any integers with m not zero, then there are unique integers q and r such that a = qm+r with 0 < r < |m|. Linear Combination: If a|b and a|c then a| (bx + cy) for any integers x and y. Euclidean Algorithm Property: For any integers a and b, there exist integers x and y such that GCD (a,b)=ax+by. Euclid's Principle: If a prime p|ab then p|a or p|b, a and b integers Application of these principles: an exercise Related pages in this website Modulo Arithmetic The MOD operator is defined such that0 <= x MOD y < y andx = q*y + (x MOD y)In other words x MOD y is the remainder after dividing x by y. The divides relation is defined such that x divides y <=> y = x * q for some integer q Its properties include the followingx divides 0x divides xx divides y ==> x divides -yx divides y and x divides z ==> x divides y + zx divides y - (y MOD z)The congruence operator == is defined such thatx == y (mod z) <=> z divides (x - y)or equivalentlyx == y (mod z) <=> x MOD z = y MOD zz == 0 (mod z)x == y (mod z) ==> y == x (mod z)x == y (mod z) and y == t (mod z) ==> x == t (mod z)x1 == x2 (mod z) and y1 == y2 (mod z) ==>x1 + y1 == x2 + y2 andx1 - y1 == x2 - y2 andx1 * y2 == x2 * y2Thus you can add, subtract, and multiply congruences. Division Division Theorem: If a and b are integers, b ≠ 0, a unique integer q exists such thata = bq+r, where 0 ≤ r < |b|Here, r is called the least non-negative remainder or principle remainder of a (mod b). r=0 iff b|a. Some properties of the Greatest Common Divisor (GCD)See the definition of GCD, below, for its defining properties. Some other properties include: GCD (m,n) = max {d : d divides m and d divides n}domain (gcd) = (Z >< Z) \\ { (0,0)}GCD (m,n) = GCD (n,m)GCD (m,0) = m GCD (m,n) = GCD (m - n,n)GCD (m,n) = GCD (m MOD n, n)provided that the left hand side is defined. These properties give rise to the Euclidean algorithm for calculating GCDGCD (m,0) = m GCD (0,m) = m GCD (m,n) = GCD (m MOD n, n) if n >= m > 0GCD (m,n) = GCD (m, n MOD m) if m >= n > 0Definition of \"\"divides\"\"The symbol \"\"|\"\" means \"\"divides\"\" or \"\"is a factor of\"\".

"text": "Matching Recipient and Donors The terms “match”, “matching” or a “perfect match” are often misunderstood or misused when referring to a recipient and donor. A clearer way of describing the evaluation process between a recipient and donor would be to use the terms, “suitable” and “compatible”. A suitable donor is someone that is healthy enough to donate. A donor is compatible when all the tests are finalized and a suitable donor is able to donate to their intended recipient. The history of the term “match” comes from the 6 HLA antigens, (Human Leukocyte Antigens.) In the past, the recipients and donors 6 antigens needed to “match” in order for that donor and recipient transplant to be successful. The new anti rejection drugs are so effective, that there isn’t a statistical difference in success rates between a zero “match” and a 5 out of 6 “match.” Therefore, HLA matching typically is not a factor that determines whether someone is compatible. There is however, a benefit to having a “perfect match,” 6 out of 6 antigens. A “perfect match” results in a significantly longer survial of the donated kidney."
