This article includes a list of references, but its sources remain unclear because it has insufficient inline citations. Please help to improve this article by introducing more precise citations. ( January 2010) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)Sharpening is the process of creating or refining a sharp edge of appropriate shape on a tool or implement designed for cutting. Sharpening is done by grinding away material on the implement with an abrasive substance harder than the material of the implement, followed sometimes by processes to polish the sharp surface to increase smoothness and to correct small mechanical deformations without regrinding. A hand-held tungsten carbide knife sharpener, with a finger guard, can be used for sharpening plain and serrated edges on pocket knives and multi-tools.

"text": "\"What Is Single Point OD Grinding? Two enabling technologies -- superabrasive wheels and high precision servo control -- come together to provide a contour grinding process that resembles an OD turning operation. For many medium volume OD grinding applications, this method may be a means to consolidate several manufacturing steps into a single setup. Article Post: 11/1/1997Chris Koepfer Editor-in-Chief, Production Machining This drawing illustrates the compound angle used in Junker's Quickpoint system. Tilting the wheel a half degree allows use of the edge and side for cutting. The wheel's narrow width allows access to most workpiece geometries. High speed grinding is accomplished by rapid rotation of the workpiece and grinding wheel. Surface speeds of 27,600 sfm allow full use of the aggressive cutting capabilities of the superabrasive wheels used on these machines. Accuracy for Junker's single point process comes from its CNC and servodrive system. Instead of relying on a form dressed into a wheel, tolerances are held by synchronization of the machine's axes."

"text": "Indians had many types of weapons from guns, bows, lances, axes, war clubs and knives. Warriors carried their scalping knives, but they didn’t always take axes on war parties. Blackfoot warrior Weasel Head recalled , ” we carried no axes on war parties. But our sharp scalping knives were as useful as any axe could be.” A warrior would take knives, shields (when on horseback), clubs, and/or tomahawks, bows, lances, and guns. They might also carry a powder horn, and a possible bag for balls and patches or bullets. They also had a rawhide case for clothing and gear such as war bonnets, quirts, sinew, awls, war paint bags, extra moccasins, pipes and tobacco, robes and blankets. Hunting was the primary way that Plains Indians got food for their people. They hunted big game like buffalo, elk, deer, and antelope or small game like rabbits. The Plains Indian tribes wanted guns, but did not use them while hunting buffalo from horseback."

By the DIY experts of The Family Handyman Magazine Time Instant!Complexity Simple Cost Under $20Overview of angle grinders Angle grinder tool Angle grinders use a wide variety of cutting and grinding wheels, like the diamond wheel shown here. You’ll find angle grinders anywhere power tools are sold. Larger hand grinders are available, but the popular 4-in. and 4-1/2 in. grinders are the right size for most tasks. You can buy very inexpensive angle grinder tool, but for frequent use or for demanding jobs like cutting stucco or cement, I’d recommend spending a little more for a grinder with a more powerful motor (look for a motor that draws 5 to 9 amps). The ability to handle different wheels and accessories is what makes angle grinders so versatile. Your angle grinder includes a spindle washer and spindle nut that you’ll install in different configurations to accommodate thicker or thinner wheels or remove altogether when you screw wire wheels and cups onto the threaded spindle."

Considerations Know what machine or machines you will be using. Some blades work on several machines however a rip blade designed to grab material and pull it into the cut may be very unsafe if used in a radial arm saw. Sliding miter saws and radial-arm saws have a tendency to self-feed which leaves the wood torn and ragged and can sometime even grab the stock which is dangerous. The negative hook angle of radial-arm and sliding miter saw blades pushes the stock downward and against the fence to provide an extra margin of safety.

These measurement standards include the parameters of radial force variation, lateral force variation, conicity, plysteer, radial run-out, lateral run-out, and sidewall bulge.

Part of a series on Graphical projection Planar [show]Views [show]Topics [show]v t e Axonometric projection is a type of orthographic projection used for creating a pictorial drawing of an object, where the lines of sight are perpendicular to the plane of projection, and the object is rotated around one or more of its axes to reveal multiple sides. [ 1]Contents [ hide ]1 Overview2 Three types3 History4 Limitations5 References6 Further reading Overview [ edit]\"\"Axonometry\"\" means \"\"to measure along axes\"\". Axonometric projection shows an image of an object as viewed from a skew direction in order to reveal more than one side of the object in the same picture. Whereas multiview projections involve depictions of objects from the six primary views (e.g. front, right, left, top, bottom, or back) in which the principal axes or planes of the object are parallel with the projection plane (thus revealing only one side of an object at a time), in axonometric projection the principal planes or axes of the object are always drawn not parallel to the projection plane. With axonometric projections the scale of distant features is the same as for near features, so such pictures will look distorted, as it is not how human vision or photography works. This distortion, the direct result of a presence or absence of foreshortening, is especially evident if the object to view is mostly composed of rectangular features. Despite this limitation, axonometric projection can be useful for purposes of illustration. In German literature, axonometry is more generally defined based on Pohlke's theorem, the fundamental theorem of axonometry. Thus, in German literature, the scope of axonometric projection is broadened to encompass all types of parallel projection."

"text": "\"By Gene and Katie Hamilton We thought removing an unwanted tree in our back yard wouldn't be that big of a project because the tree wasn't large. In fact, cutting it down was a slow but methodical job. Removing the stump, however, now that was a different story. But thanks to a rented stump grinder, we got the job done. You could spend a day cutting and hacking at a tree stump, but to remove it, you have to grind it up into small pieces, and that's why a powerful grinder is necessary equipment. A landscape contractor or tree service will charge $258 to remove a 14-inch diameter tree stump, which includes labor and material. You can rent a gas-powered stump grinder for the day for $150 and do it yourself, but there's more than your time and money to consider. You need a trailer hitch on your vehicle to transport the grinder or pay extra to have it delivered. If the tree stump is located in a gated yard or area that's difficult to reach, you may have difficulty getting the grinder in place. If there's any doubt, survey the approach and determine how you'll get the grinder to the tree stump by measuring the width of the widest opening to the yard."

"text": "Three Main Types of Grinding Centerless grinding is similar to centered grinding except that there is no spindle. This allows high through-put since parts can be quickly inserted and removed from the process. There are three main types of centerless grinding: Through-feed grinding. In-feed grinding. End-feed grinding. Through-Feed Grinding In through-feed grinding, the part rotates between the grinding wheel and a regulating wheel as shown below. For through-feed grinding, one or both wheels of the centerless grinding machine are canted out of the horizontal plane, as shown below. This imparts a horizontal velocity component to the work piece, so that outside feed mechanisms are not necessary. The grinding wheel is canted with respect to the other two axes so that a component of its surface velocity pushes the part in the direction shown below. This auto feeding characteristic is useful for rapidly processing many parts in quick sequence."

Cheaper and easier to make than Swords, and less demanding of one's wielder than both Swords and Spears, making it the Weapon of Choice of Peasant levies and Miltiamen, and by forces in pre-knightly medieval era due to their effectiveness at splitting the wooden shields so commonly used in that era. Smaller axes, such as the tomahawk or francisca, can be used as throwing weapons. In certain media, they may even return to the user's hand like a boomerang, though they have the tendency to stick in enemies if they score a hit. While axes made specifically for war have different dimensions than wood axes, many designs play double-duty. Because axes are tools and fairly simple to make note, they tended to be more plentiful and familiar to peasants, making them the close combat Weapon of Choice of common foot soldiers in a variety of ancient cultures. Being tools also allowed axes to sidestep prohibitions against commoners owning weapons. Nowadays axes are associated with the following character archetypes: Dwarves Orcs Horny Vikings Barbarians Medieval executioners Mighty Lumberjacks Firefighters Badass Natives, in which case the axe of choice will most likely be a tomahawk Ax-Crazy killers In spite of the popularity of double-headed battle axes in fiction (as shown by Gimli here for the trope picture), there are few examples of such weapons historically - battle axes were overwhelmingly of a single bit."

The way they adapted to our country's challenging conditions is a testament to Aussie inventiveness. It was once a widely-held belief in Australia that before contact, Aboriginal culture stood still. But forming the kinds of agricultural societies typical of English settlers just wasn't the right strategy to endure Australia's harsh conditions. Even with imported English technology, agriculture was a precarious business in Australia. \"\" Diversification was the key to surviving in such a diverse landscape,\"\" says Lyndon Ormond-Parker, a research fellow from the indigenous studies unit at the University of Melbourne. \"\" Certainly, when it came to social complexity, Australia was just as diverse as Europe. This was a constantly changing, fifty-thousand-year-old civilisation with over 500 different cultures and languages . \"\" This diversity can be seen in the wide range of technology Aboriginal people used. But like all good inventions, these were simple, elegant solutions, and made from materials close at hand."

Ursa Major is the largest northern constellation and third largest constellation in the sky. Its brightest stars form the Big Dipper asterism, one of the most recognizable shapes in the sky, also known as the Plough. Ursa Major is well-known in most world cultures and associated with a number of myths. It was one of the constellations catalogued by the Greek astronomer Ptolemy in the 2nd century. In Greek mythology, it is associated with Callisto, a nymph who was turned into a bear by Zeus’ jealous wife Hera. Ursa Major contains a number of notable stars and famous deep sky objects; among them, the Pinwheel Galaxy ( M101 ), Bode’s Galaxy, the Cigar Galaxy, and the Owl Nebula. MYTH, FACTS, LOCATION & MAPMYTHOLOGY: Ursa Major is a well-known, significant constellation in many cultures."

Origin of Name: Bear's son Gaelic Name: Mac Mathain, [Son of the bear)Clan Crest: A n arm rising from an antique crownbrandishing a curved sword Clan Motto: Fac et spera (Do and hope)Lands: Lochalsh, Sutherland O f the many beasts which wander this earth, few represent the virtues of strength and courage to greater effect than the great bear, a creature which has awed humanity from the earliest times. It is little wonder that the Clan Matheson's name is derived from this noble animal, from the Gaelic Mac Mhathghamhuin, meaning \"\"son of the bear\"\". This is a proud origin, with the name being synonymous with \"\"son of the heroes\"\", suggesting that the great deeds of later Mathesons had been matched by their earliest ancestors. Indeed, Cormac Macmaghan is remembered in the 13th Century as a leader of Alexander III's army, marching against the Viking strongholds in Western Scotland. In 1262, the Scottish army crossed the water to the Isle of Skye, in an early effort to break the power of the Norsemen. The following year the campaign came to fruition when the Scots defeated King Haakon's army at the Battle of Largs, driving the Norsemen from Scotland's bonny shores. T he Clan Matheson were favoured by the powerful Celtic Earls of Ross, with whom they had fought the Vikings, and were granted lands in Lochalsh, Lochcarron and Kintail. Clan Matheson's lands were set amid the rugged splendour of Scotland's western seaboard, an area immortalised in the song and verse of the nation's bards. T he Mathesons were closely allied with the Lords of the Isles, who ruled this part of Scotland almost as an independent kingdom until the mid15th Century."

( see If it weren't for Dickey ). Bruce O. sent me to his web page, www.erols.com/olsonw where the words to the \"\"original\"\" Irish version, \"\"Drumion Dubh\"\" are given. Now I am curious how this lament about a dead cow, which says nothing about kisses becomes the somewhat smooth 60s folk song \"\"Kisses Sweeter Than Wine\"\". The Leadbelly version uses the same tune as \"\"Kisses\"\" and he seems to sing \"\"Oh, Oh, kisses sweeter than gum\"\" as the chorus. He does mention a cow dying, so this is somewhere in-between. Pete Seeger does say that Leadbelly was a participent of his hootnannys in Greenwich Village in the 40s. I suspect that is where he learned the very English ballad that he calls \"\"Gallis Pole\"\". I suspect he learned some intermediate version of \"\"Drumion Dubh\"\" from this context. So I don't think he is a step in the evolution but rather he heard a step in the evolution at Seegers place."

"text": "THE ANCIENT DAVIDSON HISTORYDavidson Crest Our family name, Davidson, has its roots in the early 1300’s. Donald Dubh of Inverhaven, was the third son of Robert Comyn and the grandson of John Comyn, known as the Red Comyn, who was killed by Robert the Bruce in the year 1306 in Dumfries. Donald married the daughter of Angus, the sixth chief of the Mac Kintoshes. The Davidson family name comes from their son, Dhai Dhu, or David Dubh of Inverhaven. By 1308, Robert the Bruce had completely destroyed the Comyn or Cummings and caused the name Comyn to be proscribed around 1320. Because of this, the descendants of Dhai Dhu changed their name and became known as Clan Dhai, or Mac Dhais or Davidson. Although Davidson sounds like an English name, it is in fact derived from the Gaelic “Mac Dhaibhidh,” The Clan Dhai was one of the earliest to become associated with the confederation of the Clan Chattan. This association almost proved to be the end of the Davidsons. In the late 13th Century the Camerons invaded Arkaig which was Clan Chattan land. In 1370 a group of Camerons were returning from a raid into Badenoch, when they were met by a force of Mac Kintoshes, Mac Phersons and Davidsons."

"text": "Polaris: The North Star July 28, 2014 by admin Polaris, also known as the North Star, Alpha Ursae Minoris or Star of Arcady, is the brightest star in Ursa Minor constellation. Polaris is notable for currently being the closest bright star to the North Celestial Pole. The pole marks true north, which makes the North Star important in navigation, as the star’s elevation above the horizon closely matches the observer’s latitude. The North Star has a reputation for being bright, but it is not among the top 10 or even the top 40 brightest stars in the night sky. It is only the 48th brightest star, and owes its reputation to the fact that it is the nearest relatively bright (second magnitude) star to the North Celestial Pole. Polaris is also the star that marks the end of the Little Dipper ‘s handle. It is approximately 434 light years or 133 parsecs distant from Earth. Polaris goes by many different names, including the Northern Star, Pole Star, Lodestar, Guiding Star, and Cynosūra, derived from the Greek κυνόσουρα for “the dog’s tail.” In ancient Greek times, Ursa Minor was taken to represent a dog, not a bear. The close view to the Polaris trinary star system."

"text": "\"Visitors to Islay, looking at the road signs or at the Ordnance Survey map, are confronted with some bewildering place names. However, this often arouses an interest to learn not only what the names mean, but also how to pronounce them more or less correctly. The Museum of Islay Life has produced a guide with place names and what is following is an extract from that guide. The majority of Islay place names derive from Gaelic, while the more readable names are either Norse in origin or have been anglicised from one or other language. The origin is indicated in the second column of the second table by the following key: G =Gaelic name, N =Norse name, G/N =derived from elements of both languages, A =ancient. The meanings of the names given in this guide have been gleaned from publications in the Museum library as well as from local tradition. Where there is no single agreed meaning for a name, which happens quite often, alternatives are given. Differences in pronunciation can be found even among neighbours, let alone between people living at opposite ends of the island! The guide therefor relied almost entirely on the accent of just one person, who was brought up in Bowmore, but lived for many years on the Rinns of Islay. The intention of this guide is to convey, in the most straightforward way the writers of this guide have been able to devise, the nearest possible rendering of each word by using very simple phonetics."

"text": "Little Dipper June 1, 2014 by admin Little Dipper is a prominent asterism in the northern sky, formed by the brightest stars of Ursa Minor constellation. The asterism is often confused for the whole constellation, much like the Big Dipper is sometimes confused for Ursa Major, the Great Bear, but it is only the brightest part of the constellation. The Little Dipper is formed by the prominent stars in Ursa Minor constellation, but they are not the only stars in the constellation. The handle of the Dipper is formed by the stars of the Bear’s tail, while the Dipper’s cup is formed by the bright stars forming the Bear’s flank. The Little Dipper is important in navigation as its brightest star, Polaris, also known as the North Star, reveals the location of the North Celestial Pole. Polaris is the nearest bright star to the pole. The star’s angle above the horizon can also be used to find your latitude on Earth, which used to make the North Star exceptionally useful to sailors. For observers near the equator, Polaris appears near the horizon. For those observing the night sky from the North Pole, the North Star appears directly overhead. From mid-northern latitudes, Polaris appears halfway between the horizon and the zenith."

"text": "\"How old is Crom Dubh The worship of Crom Dubh or Crom Cruiach, the old Irish god of agriculture, is most closely associated with Tigernmas, sometimes called Tiernmas, the Irish high king who is said to have perished while worshiping this god. But where and when did the worship of Crom Cruach, Crom Dubh originate? The old Irish annals tell us that the first race that lived in Ireland were Fomorians. Then, after the flood, came the people of Partholón who are credited with introducing cattle husbandry, ploughing, cooking, dwellings, trade, and dividing the island in four. But then Partholon and all his people later died of plague leaving Fomorians as the single inhabitants of Ireland. Then The people of Nemed came, the descendants of the brother of Partholon, and they found Fomorians living in Ireland. They fought the Fomorians under Nemed and won. But after Nemed's death, Fomorians enslaved Nemed's people and demanded a heavy tribute: two thirds of their children, grain and cattle. The tribute that Nemedians had to give to Fomorians was exactly the same as the tribute Tigernmas had to give to Crom Dubh. Nemed's son gathered an army of sixty thousand, rose up against them."

"text": "\"The history of the star: Mizarfrom p.440 of Star Names, Richard Hinckley Allen, 1889. Zeta (ζ) Ursa Major, Mizar, is a double star, possibly binary, brilliant white and pale emerald on the Tail of the Great Bear. A companion star, and only 11' distant, is Alcor, a 4th magnitude star and only people with excellent eyesight could distinguish it as a separate star. These stars used to be the 'test' or 'riddle' by which people used to test their eyesight on. Mirak was an early name for this, a repetition of that for beta (β Merak ); but the 16th century French scholar Scaliger incorrectly changed it to the present Mizar, from the Arabic Mi'zar, a Girdle or Waist-cloth, which, although inappropriate, has maintained its place in modern lists; Mizat and Mirza being other forms. There is evident confusion in the early use of this word as a stellar title, for it has also been applied to the stars beta (β Merak) and epsilon (ε Alioth) of this constellation. The \"\"hill Mizar\"\" of the 42d Psalm sometimes is wrongly associated with this, the original Hebrew word mis'ar being better rendered in the Psalter, from Coverdale's version, as \"\"the little hill,\"\" i.e. of Hermon, of which it was a minor peak. This star zeta (ζ Mizar) also was the Arabic Anak al Banat, the Necks of the Maidens, referring to the Mourners at the Bier; or perhaps this should be rendered \"\"the Goat of the Mourners,\"\" for in some editions of the 15th century Tartar astronomer Ulug Beg's Tables it was written Al Inak ,—correctly Al Inz. Assemani said that it was \"\" Alhiac ,\"\" the Ostrich, probably another of his errors, as all these stellar birds were much farther south, in or near our River Eridanus. With Alcor it has various combined titles noted at that star; and Wetzstein repeats an Arabic story in which Mizar is the walidan of the Banat, with Alcor as her new-born infant."

"text": "Mackay The Clan Mackay ( Gaelic: Mac Aoidh) is an ancient and once powerful Scottish clan from the country’s far north in the Scottish Highlands, but with roots in the old province of Moray. They played a powerful force in politics beginning in the 14th century, supporting Robert the Bruce. Mackays became famous for strength, courage and skill in soldiering and were involved in endless clan battles against Keiths, Rosses, Gunns, Sinclairs, Sutherlands and others, and wars abroad. In the centuries that followed they were very anti- Jacobite. They played an important role in the military activities of both Scotland and Europe. The Highland Clearances had dire ramifications for the clan, but since then they spread throughout the world and have provided it many famous and influential descendants. Battles & History Origins of the Clan Map of Dál Riata at its height, c. 580–600, in green. Pictish regions are marked in yellow. The Mackays are believed to descend from the ancient tribes that existed in Scotland called the Picts.

The song's title is said to refer to the star formation (an asterism) known in America as the Big Dipper and in Europe as The Plough. The pointer stars of the Big Dipper align with the North Star. In this song the repeated line \"\"Follow the Drinkin' Gourd\"\" is thus often interpreted as instructions to escaping slaves to travel north by following the North Star. Songs of the Underground Railroad were spiritual and work songs used during the early-to-mid 19th century in the United States to encourage and convey coded information to escaping slaves as they moved along the various Underground Railroad routes. As it was illegal in most slave states to teach slaves to read or write, songs were used to communicate messages and directions about when, where, and how to escape, and warned of dangers and obstacles along the route.

"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."

Are they also an avenue to the development of new catalysts to recreate evolution, or to use as therapeutics and molecule sensors? Twenty years ago, it became clear that ribonucleic acids, or RNAs, are used as catalysts in living cells, in addition to their known roles in information storage and as molecular architectural frameworks. This idea was so profoundly contrary to the central dogma of molecular biology that it resulted in the award of a Nobel prize to two of the early proponents, Thomas Cech and Sidney Altman. It has inspired what is now itself the dogmatic view of pre-biotic macromolecules, the ‘RNA World’ hypothesis ( Gesteland et al.,"

"text": "\"Biology - Molecules and Cells Terms and Concepts SECTION CHAPTER 5 - Major Organic Molecule Classes THERE ARE FOUR BASIC CATEGORIES OF BIOLOGICALLY-ACTIVE ORGANIC MOLECULESThere are four basic types of molecules that are the major players in biological systems: carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. These molecule types each have at least two major functions and all interact in complex ways, sometimes producing combined molecules as well. DEHYDRATION SYNTHESIS IS HOW BIG MOLECULES ARE BUILT FROM BASIC COMPONENTSA stable molecule, big or small, will have electrons in all appropriate places (all of the orbitals will be occupied by electrons, native or borrowed), and not spontaneously link with other molecules. When the bigger organic molecules are being made from small pieces, bonds in the original component molecules must be broken and parts taken off to provide places for new bonds to form. This is how large molecules are built from smaller components. Such construction of molecules, a process called synthesis, is done almost universally with a process called dehydration synthesis, with the removal of a hydrogen from one component and a hydroxyl from the other (H + OH combine to form H 2 O, so the components lose water or dehydrate). When large molecules are broken down, the process happens in reverse - the bond between parts is broken, with a hydrogen placed on one and hydroxide on the other. Since water is \"\"split\"\" to do this, the process is called hydrolysis (\"\"water breaking\"\") and occurs in such processes as digestion, and when molecules are not useful and get broken down in cells for use as energy or component sources.

"text": "\"< Biochemistrynavigation search<< Biochemistry | << Thermodynamics | Catalysis | Metabolism and energy >>Catalysis refers to the acceleration of the rate of a chemical reaction by a substance, called a catalyst, that is itself unchanged by the overall reaction. Catalysis is crucial for any known form of life, as it makes chemical reactions happen much faster than they would \"\"by themselves\"\", sometimes by a factor of several million times. A common misunderstanding is that catalysis \"\"makes the reaction happen\"\", that the reaction would not otherwise proceed without the presence of the catalyst. However, a catalyst cannot make a thermodynamically unfavorable reaction proceed. Rather, it can only speed up a reaction that is already thermodynamically favorable. Such a reaction in the absence of a catalyst would proceed, even without the catalyst, although perhaps too slowly to be observed or to be useful in a given context. Catalysts accelerate the chemical reaction by providing a lower energy pathway between the reactants and the products. This usually involves the formation of an intermediate, which cannot be formed without the catalyst. The formation of this intermediate and subsequent reaction generally has a much lower activation energy barrier than is required for the direct reaction of reactants to products. Catalysis is a very important process from an industrial point of view since the production of most industrially important chemicals involve catalysis."

The difference between catalysts and enzymes is that while catalysts are inorganic compounds, enzymes are largely organic in nature and are bio-catalysts. Even though all known enzymes are catalysts, all catalysts are not enzymes. Moreover, catalysts and enzymes are not consumed in the reactions they catalyze. Catalysts are low molecular weight compounds, enzymes are high molecular globular proteins. Catalysts are inorganic, enzymes are organic. Catalyst reaction rates are slower (usually) than enzyme reaction rates. Catalysts are not generally specific - enzymes are VERY specific. Catalysts increase or decrease the rate of a chemical reaction, enzymes are proteins that increase the rate of chemical reactions & convert the substrate into product. There are 2 types of catalysts - (positive & negative), and the 2 types of enzymes are activation enzymes and inhibitory enzymes."

However, aside from the names we give triangles, it will be important to understand and recognize the characteristics that make certain triangles special. In this section, we will take a closer look at the properties of some unique figures: isosceles and equilateral triangles. Isosceles Triangles Let's begin our study of isosceles triangles by learning new terminology that will help us identify various characteristics of these kinds of triangles. Recall that an isosceles triangle is a triangle with at least two congruent sides. These congruent sides are called legs. The point at which these legs meet is called the vertex point of the isosceles triangle, and the angle formed by the legs is called the vertex angle. The other two angles of the triangle are called base angles . A labeled illustration of an isosceles triangle is shown below. In the past, we determined isosceles triangles by the lengths of their sides."

The good news is that, once you know triangles well for the GMAT, you have learned the bulk of geometry required for the test. Properties of All Triangles The interior angles of a triangle always add up to 180 degrees. If you make one angle bigger, another angle will become smaller: The exterior angles of a triangle always add up to 360 degrees: In every triangle, the shortest side is always opposite the smallest interior angle. The longest side is always opposite the largest interior angle. “ Opposite” means that the side does not touch the point of the angle on either end. Equilateral triangles must have three angles of 60 degrees each, and all triangles with three 60 degree angles are equilateral. Similarly, if a triangle has two equal angles, it has two equal sides, and vice versa.

A circle is the set of all points on a plane at the same distance from a single point (\"\"the center\"\"). The boundary line of a circle is called the circumference. There are 360° around the center point of a circle. If you see a circular region on the GMAT you may assume it is a circle. Also, if a point in a diagram seems inside, outside, or on the circumference of the circle, you may assume it is that way. However, do not assume that a point inside a circle is its center, unless the problem specifically states so. We will talk about the different properties of circles and the way they are tested on the GMAT in the future. Q1... Note: Figure NOT drawn to scale. If point A is found outside of a circle centered at P, and point B is found inside that circle, and the radius of the circle is 2, which of the following must be true?"

Sometimes, the term quadrangle is used, by analogy with triangle, and sometimes tetragon for consistency with pentagon (5-sided), hexagon (6-sided) and so on. The word quadrilateral is made of the words quad (meaning \"\"four\"\") and lateral (meaning \"\"of sides\"\"). What are Quadrilaterals Quadrilaterals are simple (not self-intersecting) or complex (self-intersecting), also called crossed. Simple quadrilaterals are either convex or concave.

Why or why not?9 Answers Roberto Weitnauer, studied at Politecnico Di Milano (1984)Answered Feb 12, 2018Not only can a triangle have three acute angles (which is very common), you can also get triangles with angles so acute that their total sum is less than 180 degrees!This happens in a ‘negative curved space’. Keep in mind, that this isn’t just pure abstraction or imagination. In the matter of fact, the real (physical) space can be curved. This is what Einstein’s General Relativity explains: the mass warps the space tissue. On the other hand, a triangle can have a total angles sum that exceeds 180 degrees. Yes, this too! For instance, if you draw a big triangle on the globe’s surface you create such a bidimensional object. In this case the curvature is positive. We are dealing here with so-called ‘non-euclidean geometries’."

Geometrical shapes include square, rectangle, triangle, quadrilateral, parallelogram, rhombus, cube, cuboid, pyramid, cone, sphere, circle and many more. Polygon is also a very important geometrical figure. A two-dimensional closed figure bounded by three or more line segments is called a polygon. The line segments forming a polygon are called its sides. It has three or more sides and three or more interior angles. The point of intersection of two consecutive sides of a polygon is called the vertex of the polygon. The number of vertices of the polygon is equal to the number of sides. A line segment joining any two non-consecutive vertices is called its diagonal. Polygons are classified on the basis of number of sides - (1) Triangle (polygon containing 3 sides) (2) Quadrilateral (polygon containing 4 sides) (3) Pentagon (polygon containing 5 sides) (4) Hexagon (polygon containing 6 sides) (5) Heptagon or Septagon (polygon containing 7 sides) (6) Octagon (polygon containing 8 sides) (7) Nenagon (polygon containing 9 sides) (8) Decagon (polygon containing 10 sides) (9) Hendecagon (polygon containing 11 sides) (10) Dodecagon (polygon containing 12 sides)and so on...

"text": "by William Stallings Secure Shell (SSH) Protocol is a protocol for secure network communications designed to be relatively simple and inexpensive to implement. The initial version, SSH1, focused on providing a secure remote logon facility to replace Telnet and other remote logon schemes that provided no security [4]. SSH also provides a more general client-server capability and can be used to secure such network functions as file transfer and e-mail. A new version, SSH2, provides a standardized definition of SSH and improves on SSH1 in numerous ways. SSH2 is documented as a proposed standard in RFCs 4250 through 4256 [ 1 – 3 ], [ 5 – 8 ]. SSH client and server applications are widely available for most operating systems. It has become the method of choice for remote login and X tunneling and is rapidly becoming one of the most pervasive applications for encryption technology outside of embedded systems. SSH is organized as three protocols that typically run on top of TCP (Figure 1): Transport Layer Protocol: Provides server authentication, data confidentiality, and data integrity with forward secrecy (that is, if a key is compromised during one session, the knowledge does not affect the security of earlier sessions); the transport layer may optionally provide compression User Authentication Protocol: Authenticates the user to the server Connection Protocol: Multiplexes multiple logical communications channels over a single underlying SSH connection Figure 1: SSH Protocol Stack Transport Layer Protocol Server authentication occurs at the transport layer, based on the server possessing a public-private key pair. A server may have multiple host keys using multiple different asymmetric encryption algorithms. Multiple hosts may share the same host key. In any case, the server host key is used during key exchange to authenticate the identity of the host."

This is particularly important if the computer is visible on the internet. If you don't think it's important, try logging the login attempts you get for the next week. My computer - a perfectly ordinary desktop PC - had over 4,000 attempts to guess my password and almost 2,500 break-in attempts in the last week alone. With public key authentication, the authenticating entity has a public key and a private key. Each key is a large number with special mathematical properties. The private key is kept on the computer you log in from, while the public key is stored on the .ssh/authorized_keys file on all the computers you want to log in to. When you log in to a computer, the SSH server uses the public key to \"\"lock\"\" messages in a way that can only be \"\"unlocked\"\" by your private key - this means that even the most resourceful attacker can't snoop on, or interfere with, your session. As an extra security measure, most SSH programs store the private key in a passphrase-protected format, so that if your computer is stolen or broken in to, you should have enough time to disable your old public key before they break the passphrase and start using your key."

Maybe you have found a SSH2 file on your computer and wondering what it's for? Windows might tell you that you can't open it, or in the worst case, you might encounter a SSH2 file related error message. Before you can open a SSH2 file, you'll need to figure out what kind of file the SSH2 file extension refers to. Tip: Incorrect SSH2 file association errors can be a symptom of other underlying issues within your Windows operating system. These invalid entries can also produce associated symptoms such as slow Windows startups, computer freezes, and other PC performance issues. Therefore, it highly recommended that you scan your Windows registry for invalid file associations and other issues related to a fragmented registry. Answer: SSH2 files are Uncommon Files primarily associated with SSH Secure Shell Client. Additional types of files may also be using the SSH2 file extension.

It is a command-line program for transferring files securely over a network connection. You may already be familiar with FTP: it's a very simple, and very insecure method for uploading or downloading files over a network connection. It does not provide any sort of secure encryption in the session or in the data transfer.sftp provides this functionality. Think of it as an encrypted version of ftp. Note: If you need to transfer files over anonymous FTP, sftp is not the program to use. Because all sftp connections are encrypted, they require a username and password (or public key authentication). So, for anonymous FTP transfers, just use regular ftp.sftp syntaxsftp performs all operations over an encrypted ssh session. It uses many of the features of ssh, such as public key authentication and data compression. There are four basic ways to use sftp, and the command syntax for each is listed here. ("

"text": "\"What is SFTP? FTP, or \"\"File Transfer Protocol\"\" is a popular method of transferring files between two remote systems. SFTP, which stands for SSH File Transfer Protocol, or Secure File Transfer Protocol, is a separate protocol packaged with SSH that works in a similar way over a secure connection. The advantage is the ability to leverage a secure connection to transfer files and traverse the filesystem on both the local and remote system. In almost all cases, SFTP is preferable to FTP because of its underlying security features and ability to piggy-back on an SSH connection. FTP is an insecure protocol that should only be used in limited cases or on networks you trust. Although SFTP is integrated into many graphical tools, this guide will demonstrate how to use it through its interactive command line interface. How to Connect with SFTPBy default, SFTP uses the SSH protocol to authenticate and establish a secure connection. Because of this, the same authentication methods are available that are present in SSH. Although passwords are easy to use and set up by default, we recommend you create SSH keys and transfer your public key to any system that you need to access."

"title": "http://www.medscape.org/viewarticle/448981_4\nClassification and Risk of SSI",
"text": "Classification and Risk of SSIDifferent surgical sites may contribute to the risk of developing clinical infection. For example, cosmetic operations of the head and neck in otherwise healthy patients pose a much lower risk of SSI than colon resection for cancer in an elderly patient with chronic obstructive lung disease and obesity. Elective procedures have lower SSI rates than do emergency procedures. Stratification of various operations into groups that have similar risks for infection is important so that preventive strategies can be appropriately evaluated among similar patients, and so that quality monitors can be implemented to identify when infection rates are at variance from accepted trends and norms within an institution. An assessment of gross SSI rates without stratification is of only limited value, since overall rates are likely to be a reflection of patient risk rather than quality of performance. The traditional wound infection classification system was developed in the wake of the ultraviolet light study of 1964. [ 9] This classification system was primarily designed to provide a clinical estimate of the inoculum of bacteria likely to be encountered during the procedure and does not address the other determinants of infection defined above. Four separate classes of procedures were identified, each with a unique infection rate. Clean Wounds The wound is judged to be clean when the operative procedure does not enter into a normally colonized viscus or lumen of the body. Elective inguinal hernia repair is an example of a clean operative procedure."

Public Health Management of CA-MRSAIntroduction and Epidemiology Approximately 25-30% of the population is colonized with Staphylococcus aureus. Typical sites are the anterior nares, axilla and/or groin areas. Introduction of penicillin and related antibiotics in the 1950s and 1960s was followed by rapid emergence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, or MRSA, in health care settings (healthcare-associated or HA-MRSA). In the 1990s, new strains of MRSA emerged and began causing infections among people with no identifiable links to health care settings. Several deaths among children without the common risk factors for health care associated disease were reported and led to increased attention. These infections were designated Community-Associated or CA-MRSA. Additional attention resulted from outbreaks of CA-MRSA among sports teams, prisoners, children, American Indians and Alaska Natives, and among men who have sex with men. CA-MRSA most often causes skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs), which are frequently misattributed to spider bites. Invasive infections can occur and can affect any organ system."

Most S. aureus is methicillin-susceptible (killed by methicillin and most other common treatments). In general, healthy people with no cuts, abrasions, or breaks on their skin are at low risk for getting infected. About one out of every three people (33%) are estimated to carry staph in their nose, usually without any illness. About two in 100 (2%) carry MRSA. Both adults and children may have MRSA. Like common S. aureus (SA), MRSA may cause deep (invasive) or life-threatening infections in some people.

"text": "Skin and Wound Cultures Test Overview A skin or wound culture is a test to find germs (such as bacteria or a fungus) that can cause an infection. A sample of skin, tissue, or fluid is added to a substance that promotes the growth of germs. If no germs grow, the culture is negative. If germs that can cause an infection grow, the culture is positive. The type of germ may be identified with a microscope or chemical tests. Sometimes other tests are done to find the right medicine for treating the infection. This is called sensitivity testing. Most bacteria can grow in oxygen. They are called aerobic bacteria and usually are found in wounds close to the skin surface (superficial). Bacteria that cannot grow in the presence of oxygen (anaerobic) usually are found in deeper wounds and abscesses."

"text": "Colonization vs Infection By incoaoc on August 17, 2010 in All News, Colonization vs Infection Colonization vs Infection Colonization is the presence, growth, and multiplication of the organism without observable clinical symptoms or immune reaction.1. MRSA – Colonization may occur in: the nares; axillae; chronic wounds or decubitus ulcer surface; perineum; around gastrostomy and tracheostomy sites; in the sputum or urine; and on healthy skin. One of the most common sites of colonization in both patients and employees is the nose (anterior nares). While healthcare workers may become colonized with MRSA (as they may with susceptible S. aureus ), they rarely develop infections.2. Enterococci – Are normally found in the bowel, the female genital tract, and the mouth. Strains resistant to vancomycin (VRE) may survive and multiply, resulting in a colonization of the bowel.3. C. difficile – Commonly found in the gastrointestinal tract, the organism including drug-resistant and “epidemic strains” can asymptomatically colonize the bowel of individuals. Patients receiving antimicrobial therapy may be especially susceptible to developing CDI. Generally, there are more asymptomatic carriers than CDI patients. Though no symptoms may be evident, the colonized patient may test positive for the organism or its toxin (s).4."

"text": "\"colon resection- diverticulitis Sue357Hi. I am curious as to how long people who have had the colon resection surgery- elective, no rupture, took to heal. I am almost 12 weeks post op and feeling better but notice that I will still have episodes of pain. Especially related to certain foods, like spicy, too much fiber, etc. ( I am still trying to track). My stools have been \"\"normal\"\" - formed and sausage sized, but noticed some smaller ones today. I remember my surgeon saying that my colon was starting to stricture ( close up ) and I was having these type before. This is the first time I have noticed and am wondering ( 2 questions, I guess) can this be related to certain foods. I appreciate any feedback, etc. Thanks."

Share Email Feedback Sections Overview Presentation DDx Workup Treatment Guidelines Medication Media Gallery Tables References Approach Considerations Most patients with wound infections are managed in the community. Management usually takes the form of dressing changes to optimize healing, which usually is by secondary intention. Resultant increased hospital stay due to surgical site infection (SSI) has been estimated at 7-10 days, increasing hospitalization costs by 20%. [ 18, 19, 20] Occasionally, further intervention in the form of wound debridement and subsequent packing and frequent dressing is necessary to allow healing by secondary intention. Guidelines for the management of SSI were published in 2014 by the Infectious Diseases Society of America [ 21] (IDSA), in 2016 by the World Health Organization [ 22] (WHO), and in 2017 by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [ 23] (CDC). ( See Guidelines. ) Antibiotic Prophylaxis The use of antibiotics was a milestone in the effort to prevent wound infection. The concept of prophylactic antibiotics was established in the 1960s when experimental data established that antibiotics had to be in the circulatory system at a high enough dose at the time of incision to be effective. [ 24, 25]It is generally agreed that prophylactic antibiotics are indicated for clean-contaminated and contaminated wounds (see Table 2 in Overview). Antibiotics for dirty wounds are part of the treatment because infection is established already."

ESBL stands for Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamase. These are chemicals that get produced due to certain kind of bacteria. Records indicate that most people get affected by the bacteria in the hospital itself because of improper handling by the medical staff. Open wounds, urinary tract and mouth serve to be common ways in which these bacteria can affect a person. It is also possible that a person may be a carrier of these germs but not infected with it. In case when the person is not infected but carries the bacteria he is said to be colonized by a particular kind of bacteria. A person who is a carrier but not affected can pass the bacteria to someone else even though he himself is not affected. Bacterial infection should not be addressed lightly. These infections can serve as a threat to the life of the affected individual."

They help in the faster healing of wounds, act as nutritional supplements, and also deliver a host of benefits. Herbs strengthen the immune system, lower blood sugar and cholesterol levels, have anti-inflammatory properties, and prevent Alzheimer’s diseases as well as various types of cancer. Herbs eliminate nutritional deficiencies and thus restore the correct functioning of the body. They rectify various problems rather than suppressing them. It is also said that herbs nourish every part of the body with their vitamin and mineral content. In short, our body needs certain essential dietary nutrients to meet the everyday demands of life and herbs provide us with most of the necessary components for a healthy life. Herbs are normally used as flavoring additives to culinary dishes. Along with that, they are now an integral part of various medicinal practices in most countries. Many herbal extracts like those derived from mint, licorice, fenugreek, ginkgo, and aloe vera are used in medicines."

[ 1] [2]Infectious disease, also known as transmissible disease or communicable disease, is illness resulting from an infection. Infections are caused by infectious agents including viruses, viroids, prions, bacteria, nematodes such as parasitic roundworms and pinworms, arthropods such as ticks, mites, fleas, and lice, fungi such as ringworm, and other macroparasites such as tapeworms and other helminths. Hosts can fight infections using their immune system. Mammalian hosts react to infections with an innate response, often involving inflammation, followed by an adaptive response.

"text": "\"–A+Feature Inside i OS 7: i Beacons enhance apps' location awareness via Bluetooth LEBy Daniel Eran Dilger Wednesday, June 19, 2013, 03:06 am PT (06:06 am ET)Apple's new i Beacons feature for i OS 7 implements a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) profile for micro-location, enabling a series of new geofencing capabilities for app developers. At WWDC, Apple made little public mention of its new i Beacons feature in i OS 7, apart from showing the name prominently on a Keynote slide depicting a variety of other new features included in the release. However, developers' tweets and other comments have offered new illumination of what the new feature can do for their apps. Micro-location door activation Essentially, rather than using satellite signals to locate a device anywhere on Earth as GPS does, BLE can enable a mobile user to navigate and interact with specific regions geofenced by low cost signal emitters that can be placed anywhere, including indoors, and even on moving targets. Additionally, it appears i OS devices can also act as an i Beacon:@kevinrj @bradlarson Great app idea! The sensitivity indoors using two i OS7 devices configured as i Beacons seems fairly solid.— Bob Kressin (@macisv) June 18, 2013Acting as i Beacon, a user with an i OS 7 device in hand could trigger events around them, allowing them to, for example, turn on lights and unlock and open doors simply by signaling the user's proximity to devices listening for it via BLE. While Apple's specific feature set for i Beacons remains under NDA, the BLE specification also supports the concept of device leashing, which could, for example, enable a peripheral like a watchband to communicate its location to a configured smartphone. The specification also supports peripheralpush notifications, which Apple supports in new APIs in both OS X Mavericks and i OS 7. Micro-location indoor navigationi OS 7's i Beacons can be used by app developers to do things like build aninteractive tourof a museum, where the user's attention is directed to specific exhibits as they walk freely within the building."

One Sonic WALL device is configured as the Primary unit, and an identical Sonic WALL device is configured as the Backup unit. In the event of the failure of the Primary Sonic WALL, the Backup Sonic WALL takes over to secure a reliable connection between the protected network and the Internet. Two appliances configured in this way are also known as a High Availability Pair (HA Pair). High Availability provides a way to share Sonic WALL licenses between two Sonic WALL security appliances when one is acting as a high availability system for the other. To use this feature, you must register the Sonic WALL appliances on My Sonic WALL as Associated Products. Both appliances must be the same Sonic WALL model. Benefits of High Availability High Availability provides the following benefits: • Increased network reliability – In a High Availability configuration, the Backup appliance assumes all network responsibilities when the Primary unit fails, ensuring a reliable connection between the protected network and the Internet. • Cost-effectiveness – High Availability is a cost-effective option for deployments that provide high availability by using redundant Sonic WALL security appliances."

"text": "\"Chapter Contents In the past decade, the design of enterprise-ready wireless LANs has evolved from being centered around the model of maximum coverage with minimum AP count to a model where coverage uniformity and proper cell-to-cell overlap are the predominant concerns. This has been driven by increasing interest in deploying new wireless applications such as wireless voice with its intolerance jitter and high roaming delays. In a similar fashion, deploying location-based applications using a Wi-Fi wireless LAN requires augmenting our traditional approaches, both in the design of \"\"greenfield\"\" location-aware installations as well as the augmentation or retrofit of existing designs. This chapter describes best practices that should be followed in designing and deploying location-aware wireless LANs and includes the following main sections:• Minimum Signal Level Thresholds• Access Point Placement• Access Point Separation• Determining Location Readiness• Location, Voice and Data Coexistence• Avoiding Location Display Jitter• Multiple Location Appliance Designs• Antenna Considerations• Calibration• Inspecting Location Quality• Using Test Points to Verify Accuracy Minimum Signal Level Thresholds For mobile devices to be tracked properly, a minimum of three access points (with four or more preferred for better accuracy and precision) should be detecting and reporting the received signal strength (RSSI) of any client station, asset tag, or rogue device being tracked. It is preferred that this detected signal strength level be -75d Bm or better. Note As of WLAN controller software Release 4.1.185.0, each tracked entity (WLAN client, RFID tag, rogue access point, or rogue client) is detected by up to sixteen registered access points at any time on each WLAN controller. This helps to improve the tracking of devices in motion across many access point coverage cells by assuring that the latest device RSSI is properly reflected. When performing a site survey of an area where clients or tags are tracked, the RSSI of representative devices should be verified to ensure compliance with the minimum number of recommended access points and the recommended detected signal strength. This should be performed via one of two techniques:• Viewing detected RSSI for the client or asset tag using the show client detail < mac address > or show rfid detail < mac address > controller CLI command, as shown in Figure 5-1.• Viewing detected RSSI for the client or asset tag using the location floor map GUI, as described in Figure 5-2 and Figure 5-3. Figure 5-1 Checking Client RSSI at the WLAN Controller In either case, these techniques should be used with representative test clients or asset tags in the area where localization is desired."

"text": "0Wireless networking is a business necessity within most organizations. From traveling employees to guest visitors, wireless networks often prove the best method for connecting these users to e-mail, the Internet and local file shares. Numerous challenges arise when wireless networks are deployed. Besides ensuring a wireless access point produces sufficient radio strength throughout a work area, such network communications also must be secure. In addition to making it difficult for unauthorized users to access the wireless network, organizations must take steps to encrypt data that passes between wireless devices and the wireless access point itself. Several Sonic WALL routers boast wireless connectivity. As with most any wireless-enabled router today, Sonic WALL models also feature security technologies aimed at protecting wireless transmissions. Wireless-specific versions of Sonic WALL's TZ 150, TZ 170, TZ 180 and TZ 190 models support wireless networks. All of Sonic WALL's latest PRO series devices (including the 1260, 2040, 3060, 4060, 4100 and 5060 models) support optional 802.11 wireless networking.

There are several scenarios where it's necessary to change the boot order, like when launching bootable data destructions tools and bootable antivirus programs, as well as when installing an operating system. The BIOS setup utility is where you change boot order settings. Note: The boot order is a BIOS setting, so it's operating system independent. In other words, it doesn't matter if you have Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP, Linux, or any other PC operating system on your hard drive or other bootable device - these boot sequence change instructions will still apply.01of 07Restart the Computer and Watch for the BIOS Setup Message Power On Self Test (POST). Turn on or restart your computer and watch for a message during the POST about a particular key, usually Del or F2, that you'll need to press to ...enter SETUP.

"text": "Set a Password on Your Wi-Fi Network: How to By Brian Westover | February 1, 2018 12:55 pm MOREWi-Fi is everywhere, from your local Starbucks to your home. But while you might love the convenience of wireless connectivity, you'll definitely want to take the time to protect yourself by setting a password on your network. While you're at it, you can change your network name to something clever and witty to entertain your neighbors. But either way, you'll also want to update your router firmware. These two simple steps are just common sense, like locking your front door at night; they're basic protections. Thankfully, changing your router's password is simple, and you can update your firmware while you're at it. You'll just need a couple of key pieces of information, most of which should already be available to you. Router setup will vary from brand to brand, and may be different from one model to the next. When in doubt, look up the support materials for your make and model directly from the manufacturer. We've gathered links to support pages for some of the most popular router brands."

Ultimately, the design team targets the ability to locate multiple, simultaneous jammers, and navigate in intermittent GPS and GPS-denied environments using a combination of GPS and alternate navigation aids. The system should be inexpensive and built from commercially available or open-source parts and software. By James Spicer, Adrien Perkins, Louis Dressel, Mark James, Yu-Hsuan Chen, Sherman Lo , David S. De Lorenzo and Per Enge, Stanford University The aviation community worries about GPS jamming. Recently, it struggled to find so-called personal privacy devices on Newark’s Liberty International Airport and traveling the nearby New Jersey Turnpike. A number of unintentional jamming incidents took a long time to resolve. The disruption from an intentional, malicious jamming attack could be far worse. Airport authorities should be prepared to locate and shut down a coordinated attack by numerous jammers capable of disrupting the GPS service over an entire airport. The closure of a major airport for the many hours or days it would take to locate even a couple of backpack-sized transmitters would be not only be highly disruptive in flights delayed or diverted, it would negatively impact the confidence of the flying public."

"text": "2This article is also available as a Tech Republic download. Wireless networks are a two-edged sword. WLANs empower employees and guests, but they also introduce security risks. While a wide variety of wireless strategies and devices are implemented, one very common solution involves deploying Sonic WALL wireless-equipped firewalls. Here's what you need to know to configure Sonic WALL wireless equipment. In these examples, we'll use a Sonic WALL TZ 170 SP Wireless model, one of the most frequently encountered wireless routers in the field, although the steps will also work on other Sonic WALL TZ wireless devices. Sonic WALL TZ wireless routers Sonic WALL's TZ wireless-equipped routers include several features not found on the non-wireless counterparts. In addition to protecting LANs with wireless intrusion detection services, which help monitor unauthorized access and the presence of rogue access points, a separate firewall exists for securing and separating wireless traffic from the wired LAN. IPSec encryption and WPA team together to secure wireless communications between clients and the access point. Guest services can be configured, if desired, as can Hot Spot messaging."

"text": "\"Admit it. You know you're not supposed to use your cell phone on airplanes, but while the plane approaches lift-off and the flight attendants look the other way, you've been known to pull out your phone or Black Berry to send off a furtive message or sneak in one last hushed call. Or, even if you're not so bold, haven't you ever disembarked from a plane only to realize that you simply forgot to the turn the pesky thing off? Every so often, we hear about the chaos or delay caused by the passenger who failed to switch off his cell phone, i Pod or Nintendo DS. But, despite the millions of gadgets that take to the skies each year, not one accident has been conclusively attributed to interference from an electronic device. So, why then, is the use of cell phones on planes still taboo ? Though there are technical issues at play, experts suggest the real reason has more to do with perceived public opinion than hard science. And, as more and more foreign carriers outfit their planes with technology that enables air-to-ground communication, aviation experts say it might not be long before Americans too get the go-ahead to make phone calls from 40,000 feet up. A Concern, Not Necessarily a Fact\"\"It's a concern rather than a fact that phones could radiate energy which in turn could cause interference with aeronautical systems,\"\" said David Russell, COO of On Air, a Swiss company that provides several European, Middle Eastern and Asian airlines with air-to-ground communication systems. Like the United States, several European countries have banned cell phones on airplanes."

You see, wifi transmits a property's internet connection via special radio signals, allowing us to move around from one room to another, with no interruption to our internet connection. This is obviously super handy for users of laptops, tablets and mobile devices. Once we're connected to wifi, access to the internet is suddenly so much more convenient and flexible. Sunny day outside? Why not catch up on your emails whilst sipping a coffee in the garden — with wifi, you can!The basics of wifi in summary: Wifi is the wireless technology that all internet-enabled devices use to get online — without messing around with cables. Home wifi internet is made possible via a wireless router, which is basically a box that transmits and receives wireless signals between an internet connection and internet-enabled devices. To communicate with a router and connect to wifi, a device must have a wireless adaptor. Most internet-enabled devices today come with a wireless adaptor built in — but older computers may require a plug-in adaptor in order to get online wirelessly General steps to connect to a wifi network near you The following steps run through the general steps that anyone needs to take to get connected to the internet via wifi. Step 1: Locate yourself in a property or public space that has a wireless router."

Because the individual plots were relatively large, there were only resources available to measure \\ (n=10\\) sample plots. The small sample size led to a fairly high value of the estimated error variance. A colleague of yours suggests: As you have mapped all trees on your 50 m x 50 m plot, you can easily make four plots of 25 m x 25 m out of each original plot. By that, you increase the sample size to the fourfold and, thus, reduce the error variance. Does this suggestion seem reasonable? Of course not!! The and the randomization scheme applied define what the independent observation unit is. In this case, each one of the 50 m x 50 m plots had been selected randomly and constitutes therefore one independent observation. This one single independent observation cannot be subdivided into more independent observations; it is just one."

"text": "\"Affymetrix CNV calling overview The procedure below outlines how to process raw CEL files and generates canonical genotype clusters, then convert signal intensity for each sample to LRR/BAF values, then generates CNV calls. For this protocol to work, one need to use at least 100 CEL files to generate a reasonably good clustering file. If the user has only a few CEL files, then it is necessary to use the default canonical clustering file in the Penn CNV-Affy package, but in this case the CNV calls may not be reliable. Step 1. Generate the signal intensity data based on raw CEL files The goal of the first step is to generate the cross-marker normalized signal intensity data from an Affymetrix genotyping project to a text file, so that it can be analyzed subsequently by the Penn CNV software. This step has 3 substeps. Suppose all the files from a genotyping project is stored in a directory called gw6/. Under this directory, there are several sub-directories: a CEL/ directory that stores the raw CEL files for each genotyped sample, a lib/ directory that stores library and annotation files provided by Affymetrix and by Penn CNV-Affy,. We will try to write output files to the apt/ directory. We need to download the Penn CNV software and uncompress the file. Next download the Penn CNV-Affy programs and library files and uncompress the file."

In statistics, quality assurance, and survey methodology, sampling is the selection of a subset (a statistical sample) of individuals from within a statistical population to estimate characteristics of the whole population. Two advantages of sampling are that the cost is lower and data collection is faster than measuring the entire population. Each observation measures one or more properties (such as weight, location, colour) of observable bodies distinguished as independent objects or individuals. In survey sampling, weights can be applied to the data to adjust for the sample design, particularly stratified sampling. [ 1] Results from probability theory and statistical theory are employed to guide the practice. In business and medical research, sampling is widely used for gathering information about a population. [ 2]Acceptance sampling is used to determine if a production lot of material meets the governing specifications.

"text": "\"Chapter 11 - Working with the Command-Line Tool and Scripts This chapter shows you how to use scripting to automate a variety of cluster administrative tasks, such as setting members offline, changing load distribution, and deploying applications. The two key supporting technologies that we'll cover in the chapter are the Microsoft Windows Script Host (WSH) and the Microsoft Application Center 2000 (Application Center) command-line tool, both of which are used extensively. These technologies, used separately, or in combination, enable you to manage clusters, work with applications, and work with components. On This Page Windows Script Host The Command-Line Tool: Overview and Reference Command-Line Example: Setting Up a Staging Environment Script Samples Resources Windows Script Host The Windows Script Host (WSH) is a scripting host for 32-bit Windows operating system platforms that supports several scripting engines, notably the Microsoft Visual Basic script and Java script engines. You can run WSH from either the command shell-based host by using Cscript.exe, or the Windows-based host by using Wscript.exe. With its support for the Microsoft Active X scripting architecture, WSH extends the Windows 2000 command shell and lets you create robust scripts that you can execute directly on the Windows desktop or command console without having to embed scripts in an HTML document via common scripting languages such as Microsoft Jscript development software and Visual Basic Scripting Edition (VBScript). Note The script action consumer in Microsoft Health Monitor 2.1 does not support the WSH object model, so you can't call WSH scripts as script actions in Health Monitor. In order to use WSH scripts, you need to create a command-line action for Cscript.exe, and then pass in the script file as the first command-line parameter. WSH Architectural Overview In the same manner as Microsoft Internet Explorer, WSH serves as a controller of Active X scripting engines. Because the scripting host is not a full Internet browser, it has smaller memory demands than the browser and is appropriate for performing simple, quick tasks."

Listeria spp. showed similar prevalences in samples from natural (23.4%) and urban (22.3%) environments. While L. seeligeri and L. welshimeri were significantly associated with natural environments ( P ≤ 0.0001), L. innocua and L. monocytogenes were significantly associated with urban environments ( P ≤ 0.0001). Sequencing of sig B for all isolates revealed 67 allelic types with a higher level of allelic diversity among isolates from urban environments. Some Listeria spp. and sig B allelic types showed significant associations with specific urban and natural areas. Nearest-neighbor analyses also showed that certain Listeria spp. and sig B allelic types were spatially clustered within both natural and urban environments, and there was evidence that these species and allelic types persisted over time in specific areas."

"text": "\"What is a z-score? What is a p-value? Most statistical tests begin by identifying a null hypothesis. The null hypothesis for the pattern analysis tools ( Analyzing Patterns toolset and Mapping Clusters toolset) is Complete Spatial Randomness (CSR), either of the features themselves or of the values associated with those features. The z-scores and p-values returned by the pattern analysis tools tell you whether you can reject that null hypothesis or not. Often, you will run one of the pattern analysis tools, hoping that the z-score and p-value will indicate that you can reject the null hypothesis, because it would indicate that rather than a random pattern, your features (or the values associated with your features) exhibit statistically significant clustering or dispersion. Whenever you see spatial structure such as clustering in the landscape (or in your spatial data), you are seeing evidence of some underlying spatial processes at work, and as a geographer or GIS analyst, this is often what you are most interested in. The p-value is a probability. For the pattern analysis tools, it is the probability that the observed spatial pattern was created by some random process. When the p-value is very small, it means it is very unlikely (small probability) that the observed spatial pattern is the result of random processes, so you can reject the null hypothesis."

[ 1] It is a list of all those within a population who can be sampled, and may include individuals, households or institutions. [ 1]Importance of the sampling frame is stressed by Jessen [2] and Salant and Dillman. [ 3]In many practical situations the frame is a matter of choice to the survey planner, and sometimes a critical one. [...] Some very worthwhile investigations are not undertaken at all because of the lack of an apparent frame; others, because of faulty frames, have ended in a disaster or in cloud of doubt.— Raymond James Jessen Contents [ hide ]1 Obtaining and organizing a sampling frame2 Sampling frame qualities3 Types of sampling frames4 Sampling frames problems5 References Obtaining and organizing a sampling frame [ edit]In the most straightforward cases, such as when dealing with a batch of material from a production run, or using a census, it is possible to identify and measure every single item in the population and to include any one of them in our sample; this is known as direct element sampling. [ 1] However, in many other cases this is not possible; either because it is cost-prohibitive (reaching every citizen of a country) or impossible (reaching all humans alive). Having established the frame, there are a number of ways for organizing it to improve efficiency and effectiveness. It's at this stage that the researcher should decide whether the sample is in fact to be the whole population and would therefore be a census. This list should also facilitate access to the selected sampling units."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Statistics distributions obtained from Simon Newcomb speed of light dataset obtained through bootstrapping: the final result differs between the standard deviation and the median absolute deviation (both measures of dispersion) distributions. In statistics, bootstrapping is any test or metric that relies on random sampling with replacement. Bootstrapping allows assigning measures of accuracy (defined in terms of bias, variance, confidence intervals, prediction error or some other such measure) to sample estimates. [ 1] [2] This technique allows estimation of the sampling distribution of almost any statistic using random sampling methods. [ 3] [4] Generally, it falls in the broader class of resampling methods. Bootstrapping is the practice of estimating properties of an estimator (such as its variance) by measuring those properties when sampling from an approximating distribution. One standard choice for an approximating distribution is the empirical distribution function of the observed data. In the case where a set of observations can be assumed to be from an independent and identically distributed population, this can be implemented by constructing a number of resamples with replacement, of the observed dataset (and of equal size to the observed dataset). It may also be used for constructing hypothesis tests. It is often used as an alternative to statistical inference based on the assumption of a parametric model when that assumption is in doubt, or where parametric inference is impossible or requires complicated formulas for the calculation of standard errors."

Each observation measures one or more properties (weight, location, etc.) of an observable entity enumerated to distinguish objects or individuals. Survey weights often need to be applied to the data to adjust for the sample design. Results from probability theory and statistical theory are employed to guide practice. The sampling process comprises several stages: Defining the population of concern Specifying a sampling frame, a set of items or events possible to measure Specifying a sampling method for selecting items or events from the frame Determining the sample size Implementing the sampling plan Sampling and data collecting Reviewing the sampling process Contents [ show]Population definition Edit Successful statistical practice is based on focused problem definition. Typically, we seek to take action on some population, for example when a batch of material from production must be released to the customer or sentenced for scrap or rework. Alternatively, we seek knowledge about the cause system of which the population is an outcome, for example when a researcher performs an experiment on rats with the intention of gaining insights into biochemistry that can be applied for the benefit of humans. In the latter case, the population of concern can be difficult to specify, as it is in the case of measuring some physical characteristic such as the electrical conductivity of copper . However, in all cases, time spent in making the population of concern precise is often well spent, often because it raises many issues, ambiguities and questions that would otherwise have been overlooked at this stage."

Once the models have been built, the challenges come in deploying them to obtain the best results, and in maintaining them within a production environment. In traditional data mining, models are built using specialized software on a remote system and deployed to another system for scoring. This is a cumbersome, error-prone process open to security violations and difficulties in data synchronization. With Oracle Data Mining, scoring is easy and secure. The scoring engine and the data both reside within the database. Scoring is an extension to the SQL language, so the results of mining can easily be incorporated into applications and reporting systems.

Finding the median in sets of data with an odd and even number of values. The median is the value separating the higher half of a data sample, a population, or a probability distribution, from the lower half. For a data set, it may be thought of as the \"\"middle\"\" value. For example, in the data set {1, 3, 3, 6, 7, 8, 9}, the median is 6, the fourth largest, and also the fourth smallest, number in the sample. For a continuous probability distribution, the median is the value such that a number is equally likely to fall above or below it. The median is a commonly used measure of the properties of a data set in statistics and probability theory. The basic advantage of the median in describing data compared to the mean (often simply described as the \"\"average\"\") is that it is not skewed so much by extremely large or small values, and so it may give a better idea of a \"\"typical\"\" value. For example, in understanding statistics like household income or assets which vary greatly, a mean may be skewed by a small number of extremely high or low values."

Here, we present evidence that these “silent” mutations frequently contribute to human cancer. Selection on synonymous mutations in oncogenes is cancer-type specific, and although the functional consequences of cancer-associated synonymous mutations may be diverse, they recurrently alter exonic motifs that regulate splicing and are associated with changes in oncogene splicing in tumors. The p53 tumor suppressor ( TP53) also has recurrent synonymous mutations, but, in contrast to those in oncogenes, these are adjacent to splice sites and inactivate them. We estimate that between one in two and one in five silent mutations in oncogenes have been selected, equating to ∼6%– 8% of all selected single-nucleotide changes in these genes. In addition, our analyses suggest that dosage-sensitive oncogenes have selected mutations in their 3′ UTRs.

A key challenge in cancer research is to distinguish the consequential driver mutations from the inconsequential passenger mutations. Given the recent explosion in the number of sequenced cancer genomes, this challenge is particularly pressing (Vogelstein et al.,"

Pay special attention to the descriptions that appear in the charts and the illustrative examples on the page below. You will need to make informed decisions for your own methodology, taking into account your research questions or hypothesis, your procedures, and the feasibility of your ideas. Collecting data is time consuming and expensive, even for relatively small amounts of data. Hence, it is highly unlikely that a complete population will be investigated. Because of the time and cost elements the amount of data you collect will be limited and the number of people or organizations you contact will be small in number. You will, therefore, have to take a sample and usually a small sample. Sampling theory says a correctly taken sample of an appropriate size will yield results that can be applied to the population as a whole."

For example, a third party beneficiary is not a party to the contract himself but receives a benefit once the contract is satisfied. In certain situations, a third party beneficiary is afforded the legal rights necessary to enforce the contract and share in the proceeds. To explore this concept, consider the following third party beneficiary definition. Definition of Third Party Beneficiary Noun A person who benefit from a contract made between two other parties. Origin1605-1615 Latin beneficiārius What is a Beneficiary A beneficiary is someone who, as the name would suggest, receives some kind of benefit.

The word “charity” is derived from a Latin word “caritas,” meaning care. In ordinary term it means no more than generosity to the poor and needy. The legal meaning of word is much wider. It incorporates other purposes for the benefit of the community as a whole. Charitable trust is a significant area of law in the United Kingdom, as charitable trusts enjoy some advantages over other trusts. Above all, UK charities do not pay income tax on their investment income devoted solely to charitable purposes under s505 of the Taxes Act 1988. Charitable trusts do not pay capital gains tax on the disposal of assets provided they are devoted to charitable purposes only, under s256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992."

"text": "Third Party Beneficiary Law and Legal Definition A third party is someone who has an enforceable right by reason of a contract made by two others, though he/she/it is not a party to the contract and gave no consideration. Third party beneficiaries may be found to exist if (1) he/she/it is a creditor of the promisee or some other person and the contract calls for a performance by the promisor in satisfaction of the obligation; or (2) the promised performance will be of pecuniary benefit to the third party and the contract is so expressed as to give the promisor reason to know that the promisee was motivated to enter the contract by an intention to confer such a benefit on the third party. A third party beneficiary is an intended, and not just an incidental, beneficiary of a contract. If the intent to benefit a third party is not expressed in the contract, then intent may be shown using other evidence. The nature of the agreement, the identity of the alleged intended beneficiaries, and the specific duty said to have been created toward them are all factors for consideration. The beneficiary may recover if he or she can show that he or she is one of a class of persons for whose benefit the contract was made. For example, one court has held that a third party is an intended third-party beneficiary of a contract, and thus is entitled to enforce the contract's terms, if The parties to the contract have not otherwise agreed;Recognition of a right to performance in the beneficiary is appropriate to effectuate the intention of the parties; and The terms of the contract or the circumstances surrounding performance indicate that either:the performance of the promise will satisfy an obligation or discharge a duty owed by the promisee to the beneficiary; orthe promisee intends to give the beneficiary the benefit of the promised performance.

"text": "\"The Office of General Counsel issued the following opinion on March 14, 2003, representing the position of the New York State Insurance Department. Re: Vehicle service contract Question Presented: May the \"\"Extended Vehicle Service Contract\"\" (the \"\"contract\"\"), which is marketed by X, be offered or sold in New York under the New York Insurance Law? Conclusion: It depends on who is the obligor under the contract since the contract contains a check-off for either the dealer that sells the contract or X to be the obligor. If X is the obligor under the contract, then the contract may not be offered or sold in New York because it is not registered in this state as a service contract provider. If the automobile dealer that sells the vehicle is the obligor under the contract, then the contract would be a warranty, and the dealer may sell such a contract. However, several provisions of the dealer agreement between the dealer and X indicate that X would be in violation of a number of New York insurance laws. Facts: An automobile dealer would like to offer for sale in New York a \"\"vehicle service contract\"\" program offered through X in connection with the sale of a new or used motor vehicle. The contract provides coverage for a \"\"covered breakdown\"\", which is defined under Provisions & Definitions to mean \"\"failure of any Covered Part to work as it was designed to work in normal service\"\". The contract lists the specific parts of the vehicle that are covered under the contract. The contract has a list of exclusions, including exclusions as the result of misuse of the vehicle; improper maintenance; \"\"collision, fire, electrical fire or meltdown, theft…or for any hazard insurable under standard physical damage insurance policies whether or not such insurance is in force…\"\"The contract has options for coverage both with or without a deductible, and additional coverage may be purchased for four wheel drive, V-10 engines, turbo/supercharger, seals and gaskets, and other parts, as well as if the vehicle is used for commercial use."

INTENDED BENEFICARY When circumstances indicate that a promisee intended to give a beneficiary the benefit of a promised performance, this will indicate an intended beneficiary. An intended beneficiary receives performance directly from the promisor, is expressly designated in the contract, and has decisional rights regarding performance, or is in such a relationship with the promisee that it can be inferred that the promisee intended to benefit the third party. ( Can be identified at the time of contract performance. ) Promisee The promisee makes an agreement to provide consideration to another party, called the promisor, for the promisor's agreement to provide something to the intended beneficiary. The promissee may sue the promisor for specific performance for failure to pay the beneficiary. Promisor The promisor is the party that provides the product, a service or some type of support to the beneficiary. The promisor may raise the same defenses against the intended beneficiary as they could have raised against the promisee, but may not raise the same defenses as promisee could have raised, because they do not stand in the shoes of the promisee."

"text": "Merit Decision: When Can a Third Party Be an Intended Beneficiary under a Contract? Huff v. First Energy Corp. Posted on October 13, 2011 by MBettman As a torts professor, I enjoy teaching cases where the law of torts and contracts intersect. One such area is when a tort duty arises in favor of the intended beneficiary of a contract. The Supreme Court of Ohio has just released an opinion in one such case – Huff v. First Energy Corp., 2011-Ohio-5083. Lisa Huff was seriously injured when a large tree limb fell on her during a sudden storm when she was out taking a walk with a friend along a rural road. The limb fell from an old maple tree on property owned by the Braho family. This tree was also located twenty feet from utility lines owned by Ohio Edison Company, a subsidiary of First Energy Corporation. Ohio Edison had an easement near the tree, but the tree was outside the easement. Ohio Edison contracted with the Asplundh Tree Expert Company to inspect trees and vegetation along its power lines and to remedy any problems affecting the lines. Asplundh had last inspected the area about three years before Mrs. Huff’s injury."

Johansen, University of Edinburgh Teleology pervades Aristotle's philosophy, perhaps like no other notion. Its applications range from elemental theory and chemistry, to psychology, biology, astronomy, ethics and politics. Surveying the uses of teleology throughout his philosophy can thus serve as a good introduction to Aristotle's overall philosophy. Monte Ransome Johnson's study provides such a survey, and in the process gives us an in-depth analysis of Aristotelian teleology, its nature and its limitations. Johnson's own general view of Aristotle's teleology is this: 'Aristotle thinks that the fact that things function well in nature needs a general explanation. But the explanations he offers invariably make reference to specific natural substances. He is wary of attempts to generalize about a generic, overall good, which he holds has little or no explanatory power … His teleological explanations in the works on nature make reference to the good of specific kinds of things -- stars, elements, plants, animals, humans, families, and cities -- and not just to human beings, god, or some other overarching cosmic good' (11). Accordingly, much of the book is devoted to clearing away what Johnson takes to be misunderstandings of Aristotelian teleology. So Aristotle's teleology of living creatures is 'not anthropomorphic, not committed to backwards causation, and not a mere heuristic for materialist and mechanistic explanations' (188)."

"text": "Tens of Thousands Of Scientists Declare Climate Change A Hoax September 2, 2016 Sean Adl-Tabatabai Weird 1062A staggering 30,000 scientists have come forward confirming that man-made climate change is a hoax perpetuated by the elite in order to make money. One of the experts is weather channel founder, John Coleman, who warns that huge fortunes are being made by man-made climate change proponents such as Al Gore. Natural News reports: In a recent interview with Climate Depot, Coleman said: Find Out More > 36,303“Al Gore may emerge from the shadows to declare victory in the ‘global warming’ debate if Hillary Clinton moves into the White House. Yes, if that happens and the new climate regulations become the law of the land, they will be next to impossible to overturn for four to eight years. ”Climate change proponents remain undeterred in their mission, ignoring numerous recent scientific findings indicating that there has been no warming trend at all for nearly two decades. Al Gore’s dire predictions of the melting of polar ice on a massive scale have proved to be completely false. In fact, in 2014 – a year that was touted as being “the hottest ever” in the Earth’s history – there were record amounts of ice reported in Antarctica, an increase in Arctic ice, and record snowfalls across the globe. Debunking the “97 percent” lie On top of those “inconvenient truths,” the White House’s assertion that 97 percent of scientists agree that global warming is real has been completely debunked. Several independently-researched examinations of the literature used to support the “97 percent” statement found that the conclusions were cherry-picked and misleading. More objective surveys have revealed that there is a far greater diversity of opinion among scientists than the global warming crowd would like for you to believe."

Gore made a play for the Presidency in 2000 after Clinton. But, alas, it was not to be and after a closely contested and contentious race, he conceded to his opponent George W. Bush after a contentious struggle for a decisive result in Florida. He then embarked on an environmental crusade, pushing the ignored topic of global warming to the forefront. Albert Arnold Gore was on a mission using everything in his arsenal to jolt the world awake on the perils of pollution and what we needed to do to save our planet. From his book and documentary An Inconvenient Truth to his television station Current, he continued stressing the dangers of global warming. His fight had started long before though, with the launch of the Globe Program in 1994 to help students worldwide through hands-on science. People eventually took notice after he received some prestigious awards for his efforts which included the shared Nobel Peace Prize, an Emmy for his work on Current TV and an Academy Award for the Inconvenient Truth documentary."

D. * | WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 01, 2008Share Email Facebook Twitter Google+Introduction In the latest of my series of articles on global warming, I offered evidence that global warming appears to be occurring, but evidence seems to be growing that fluctuations in the electromagnetic field of the sun may be responsible for it. 1 Here I would like to expand my arguments that carbon dioxide from man's activities is probably not the primary cause for global warming. Major weaknesses have developed in the logic that carbon dioxide causes global warming. In a second article to follow, I will describe a new theory of climate change based on the influence of the sun. Arguments against Carbon Dioxide Driving Global Warming In his presentation An Inconvenient Truth, 2 Al Gore argues that the correlation between earth's average global temperature and the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere irrefutably demonstrates that carbon dioxide drives global warming. He compares the temperature trend in the so-called \"\"Hockey Stick Diagram\"\" with the exponential increase in carbon dioxide measured at Mauna Loa, Hawaii, for the past 50 years. A similar plot of temperature over the past 1,000 years is shown in Figure 1. Such a diagram is given this name because the temperature plot looks like a long-handled hockey stick."

The Daily Caller News Foundation highlighted some of the failed predictions Gore made in his 2006 film, which argued the weight of scientific evidence shows global warming would be catastrophic if the world did not stop using fossil fuels. Here are some additional “inconvenient truths” Gore will have to explain in his new film (though we doubt he will): Why Are The Climate Models Wrong? When Gore’s film debuted in 2006, there was a confidence about climate science that only bolstered the dire climate model projections of future temperature rises. Gore’s film came out in the middle of what’s been called the global warming “hiatus” or “slowdown” — a 15 to 20-year period with little to no statistically significant increase in global average temperature."

"text": "Politics The Money and Connections Behind Al Gore’s Carbon Crusadeccoreybarnes | Wednesday Oct 3, 2007 3:01 AMShare on Facebook Al Gore’s campaign against global warming is shifting into high gear. Reporters and commentators follow his every move and bombard the public with notice of his activities and opinions. But while the mainstream media promote his ideas about the state of planet Earth, they are mostly silent about the dramatic impact his economic proposals would have on America. And journalists routinely ignore evidence that he may personally benefit from his programs. Would the romance fizzle if Gore’s followers realized how much their man stands to gain? Earlier this year Gore experienced a notable public relations debacle. The Tennessee Center for Policy Research, a state think tank, revealed that he was an energy hog. Public records show that Gore’s Nashville mansion used in one month more than twice the electricity the typical American household uses in a year: His average monthly electric bill was more than $1,359. Moreover, Gore’s household energy use increased after An Inconvenient Truth, his film about global warming, was released to ecstatic reviews. Never mind that the scientific community is divided over what causes global warming, how bad it is and how to deal with it."

"text": "Al Gore Biography U. S. Vice President Name at birth: Albert Gore, Jr. Al Gore served for eight years as vice-president under Bill Clinton, then was the Democratic Party’s nominee for president in 2000. Gore’s father, Albert Gore Sr., served 32 years as a U. S. representative and senator from Tennessee. The younger Gore served in the U. S. Army and worked briefly as a newspaper reporter before winning election to Congress in 1976. In 1984 he moved up to the Senate and was re-elected in 1990. After making a run at the presidency in 1988, Gore was chosen by Clinton to be his 1992 running mate; the two were elected and then re-elected in 1996. Gore’s detail-oriented concern for environmental and economic issues earned him a reputation as a “policy wonk” and a somewhat wooden personality. Al Gore won the Democratic Party nomination for U. S. president in 2000, choosing Connecticut senator Joe Lieberman as his running mate; in the November general election they ran against the Republican ticket of George W. Bush and Dick Cheney. After a post-election delay of a month while votes were recounted and lawsuits were filed on both sides, Gore conceded the election to Bush on December 13, 2000. Gore actually received more popular votes than Bush: the final official tally was 50,158,094 votes for Gore to 49,820,518 votes for Bush."

"text": "\"ACTS & FACTS IMPACT CLIMATE CHANGEEvidence for Global Warming BY LARRY VARDIMAN, PH. D. * | SUNDAY, APRIL 01, 2007Share Email Facebook Twitter Google+Introduction The global warming issue will not go away. Evidence continues to mount that some type of warming is occurring, maybe temporarily or of longer duration. But, is it caused by man and can anything be done about it? Environmental activism to reduce carbon dioxide emissions has reached a new intensity. The U. S. Supreme Court is being asked to rule on a suit which demands that the Environmental Protection Agency regulate the release of carbon dioxide as part of its air pollution responsibility. The president is being heavily lobbied to subscribe to the Kyoto Protocol which would require the U. S. to emit less carbon dioxide than it released in 1990. A book and a movie with the titles, An Inconvenient Truth, which press the case for global warming were released during 2006 by Al Gore, former vice president of the United States. 1,2 He makes the case that man's actions in burning fossil fuels are projected to increase the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to the highest levels in history. He insists that uncontrolled releases of carbon dioxide will eventually melt the polar caps completely, raising sea level and inundating many coastal communities like New York, Miami, New Orleans, and Los Angeles; and drastically changing agricultural patterns because of redistribution of temperature and precipitation."

People have either lived through it or watched these events unfold on the news in recent months with powerful hurricanes hitting Puerto Rico, Houston and the southern United States, plus deadly earthquakes in Mexico. So do audiences really want to go see these same scenes play out at their local cinemas? The sci-fi action film Geostorm (in theaters Friday), starring Gerard Butler, imagines a climate-controlling satellite defense system — installed in space to quell natural disasters — that malfunctions, creating extreme weather conditions with bus-size hail, gigantic tidal waves and killer tornadoes that threaten Earth.

Although most corporate income falls within the 35 percent tax bracket, the average tax rate on corporate income (corporate taxes divided by corporate income) is lower than 35 percent because of allowable deductions, exclusions, tax credits, and the lower tax rates that apply to the first $10 million of income. For example, corporations can deduct business expenses, including interest paid to holders of the firm’s bonds, from gross income to compute taxable income. ( Dividends paid to shareholders, however, are not deductible.) Most income earned by the foreign subsidiaries of U. S. corporations is not subject to U. S. taxation until it is repatriated in the form of dividends paid to the parent corporation. To prevent income earned abroad from being subject to both foreign and U. S. taxation, the tax code gives U. S. corporations a credit that reduces their domestic tax liability on that income by the amount of income and withholding taxes they have paid to foreign governments. The foreign tax credit is subject to limits that are designed to ensure that the amount of credits taken does not exceed the amount of U. S. tax that otherwise would have been due."

Tax brackets—the income ranges to which the different rates apply—vary depending on taxpayers’ filing status (see the table below). In 2013, for example, a person filing singly with taxable income of $40,000 would pay a tax rate of 10 percent on the first $8,925 of taxable income, 15 percent on the next $27,325, and 25 percent on the remaining $3,750 of taxable income.

When this multiplier exceeds one, the enhanced effect on national income is called the multiplier effect. The mechanism that can give rise to a multiplier effect is that an initial incremental amount of spending can lead to increased income and hence increased consumption spending, increasing income further and hence further increasing consumption, etc., resulting in an overall increase in national income greater than the initial incremental amount of spending."

"text": "A: The marginal tax rate is the rate of tax income earners incur on each additional dollar of income. As the marginal tax rate increases, the taxpayer ends up with less money per dollar earned than he or she had retained on previous earned dollars. Tax systems employing marginal tax rates apply different tax rates to different levels of income; as income rises, it is taxed at a higher rate. It is important to note, however, the income is not all taxed at one rate but at many rates as it moves across the marginal tax rate schedule. The goal of the marginal rate is to place the burden of supporting government on the shoulders of taxpayers more financially able to do so, versus spreading the burden evenly to the detriment of taxpayers not able to afford any more, while attempting to balance the problems of a straight progressive rate. Flat Tax System The other tax system used in modern economics is flat taxes. With flat taxes, the rate does not change, regardless of the individual's income. No matter how much a person makes, he or she will be taxed at the same percentage. Supporters of flat taxes argue that this system is fair because it taxes all individuals and businesses at the same rate, rather than taking into account the levels of their income. Flat tax systems usually do not allow deductions."

Although such bonds are commonly referred to as “tax-exempt,” there are numerous federal and state tax consequences associated with the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of such bonds. This article will provide an overview of such consequences. This article does not cover all of the possible tax consequences resulting from ownership of tax-exempt bonds and the receipt of interest thereon, and it is not intended as tax advice to any person. It addresses only beneficial owners who hold such bonds as capital assets, and does not address special classes of beneficial owners such as dealers in securities or currencies, banks, life insurance companies, persons holding such bonds as a hedge against interest rate or currency risks or as part of a straddle or conversion transaction, or beneficial owners whose functional currency is not the U. S. dollar. This article is based upon the United States federal income tax laws as currently in effect and as currently interpreted and does not include any description of the tax laws of any foreign government that might apply to a beneficial owner. Prospective purchasers of tax-exempt bonds should consult their own tax advisors concerning the application of federal and state tax laws to their particular situation. Capital Gains and Losses Even though the interest paid on a municipal bond is tax-exempt, a holder can recognize gain or loss that is subject to federal income tax on the sale of such a bond, just as in the case of a taxable bond. The amount of gain or loss is equal to the difference betweenthe sale price of the bond andthe holder's tax basis in the bond (the amount the holder paid for the bond originally, including any additions to such basis, such as OID as discussed in the following section)."

That is, taxpayers pay more in taxes if they earn more in income. For example, taxpayers may pay 25% of their income in taxes up to a certain amount, and 35% of everything earned over that amount. A theory behind progressive taxation states that persons or corporations who earn the same or a similar amount of money should be taxed in the same or a similar way. For example,the theory states that two individuals making $50,000 per year should be taxed the sameamount, regardless of how they earned their income. This is known as horizontal equity.

"text": "Basic Tax Rate Concepts Learning to compute a marginal tax rate (MTR) provides an analytical, value-added skill that facilitates decision-making in a variety of contexts. These decision settings may involve multiple years, multiple jurisdictions, and multiple persons; separate lessons discuss each of these areas and a final tutorial examines more complex situations. This initial lesson explains statutory, effective, and marginal tax rates and provides background information you need to understand and calculate MTRs. Statutory Tax Rates Statutory tax rates are those percentages appearing in the tax law. For example, §11 in the Internal Revenue Code contains statutory rates for taxing C corporations under U. S. law. In summary, these rates apply to taxable income as follows: Congress formulated the 39% and 38% “bubble” rates to take back advantages of lower rates otherwise applicable. For instance, the 39% bracket acts as a five-percentage-point addition to the 34% rate, neutralizing the advantage of the 15% and 25% brackets. When a corporation’s taxable income reaches $335,000, the 39% bracket begins taking back the advantages of the lower 15% and 25% tax rates and completes the process once taxable income reaches $10 million. Thus, you can obtain the tax attributable to taxable income ranging from $335,000 to $10 million by applying all the rates in the above schedule to taxable income or, more simply, by multiplying taxable income by 34%. Similarly, when a corporation’s taxable income reaches $15 million, the 38% acts as a three-percentage-point addition to the 35% rate and starts taking back the advantages of the 34% tax rate, completing the process after taxable income reaches $18,333,333."

In this lesson, you'll learn about the average tax rate, related concepts, and how to calculate it. A short quiz follows. What Is the Average Tax Rate? The average tax rate is the tax rate you pay when you add all sources of taxable income and divide that number into the amount of taxes you owe. In other words, you can calculate your average tax rate by dividing your total tax obligation by your total taxable income. Now, before we explore average tax rate further, let's quickly review the concepts we need to know to fully grasp this type of tax rate. Conceptual Framework As you may already know, a tax is a governmental fee levied on a product, income, or activity. Examples of taxes include sales tax and income tax. You can also think of licensing fees as taxes, such as license fees for car registration, driving, hunting, and forming a business entity."

Middle-income families receive $1.48 in total spending per tax dollar, while America’s highest-income families receive $0.25 cents in spending for every dollar of taxes paid. As a group, the bottom 60 percent of American families receive more back in total government spending than they pay in total taxes. Government tax and spending policies combine to redistribute more than $2 trillion from the top 40 percent of families to the bottom 60 percent. The total amount of redistribution has increased slightly over the past 12 years. Middle-income and working lower-income families were the biggest beneficiaries. Lawmakers can remove equity as an issue in tax reform by matching any loss in progressivity on the tax side with an equal increase in progressivity on the spending side."

This article examines the trust fund reserves and cash flows and their interrelationships with the Treasury's cash management operations and the budget of the rest of the federal government. Although some observers view the trust fund reserves and interest income as accounting fictions, a careful tracing of the cash flows reveals that the reserves and their interest earnings are, for all practical purposes, as real as those of any bank account. In addition, an examination of the long-term constraints facing the trust funds and the federal budget clarifies that under the Social Security system's self-financing framework, an improvement in trust fund finances will not relieve the accumulated debt commitments of the rest of the federal government.

It's also extremely flawed. At 99.6 percent, revenues did nearly double during the 80s. However, they had likewise doubled during EVERY SINGLE DECADE SINCE THE GREAT DEPRESSION! They went up 502.4% during the 40's, 134.5% during the 50's, 108.5% during the 60's, and 168.2% during the 70's. At 96.2 percent, they nearly doubled in the 90s as well. Hence, claiming that the Reagan tax cuts caused the doubling of revenues is like a rooster claiming credit for the dawn. Furthermore, the receipts from individual income taxes (the only receipts directly affected by the tax cuts) went up a lower 91.3 percent during the 80's. Meanwhile, receipts from Social Insurance, which are directly affected by the FICA tax rate, went up 140.8 percent. This large increase was largely due to the fact that the FICA tax rate went up 25% from 6.13 to 7.65 percent of payroll."

[ 1] [2] [3] [4] [5] \"\"Regressive\"\" describes a distribution effect on income or expenditure, referring to the way the rate progresses from high to low, so that the average tax rate exceeds the marginal tax rate. [ 6] [7] In terms of individual income and wealth, a regressive tax imposes a greater burden (relative to resources) on the poor than on the rich: there is an inverse relationship between the tax rate and the taxpayer's ability to pay, as measured by assets, consumption, or income. These taxes tend to reduce the tax burden of the people with a higher ability to pay, as they shift the relative burden increasingly to those with a lower ability to pay. The regressivity of a particular tax can also factor the propensity of the taxpayers to engage in the taxed activity relative to their resources (the demographics of the tax base). In other words, if the activity being taxed is more likely to be carried out by the poor and less likely to be carried out by the rich, the tax may be considered regressive. [ 8] To measure the effect, the income elasticity of the good being taxed as well as the income substitution effect must be considered. The measure can be applied to individual taxes or to a tax system as a whole; a year, multi-year, or lifetime. The opposite of a regressive tax is a progressive tax, in which the average tax rate increases as the amount subject to taxation rises [9] [10] [11] [12] In between is a flat or proportional tax, where the tax rate is fixed as the amount subject to taxation increases.

Unfortunately, though, significant confusion abounds regarding what tax rates should be used when analyzing various problems. Is it the client’s tax bracket? Or a marginal tax rate? Or an effective tax rate? When should each be used? The key is that in the end, marginal tax rates should be used to compare strategies, and effective tax rates should be used to compare people. Accordingly, if you want to know who commits a larger portion of their total income to their tax obligations, use an effective tax rate. But if you want to know whether to do that Roth conversion/IRA withdrawal/annuity investment/sale for a capital gain or loss/etc., the marginal tax rate is what should be used."

A blood type (sometimes called ABO blood group is determined by the presence or absence of two proteins (Protein A and Protein B) on the surface of a persons red blood cells. Because two proteins are involved, there are four possible combinations or blood types (ABO groups): Type A - Only the A protein is present. Type B - Only the B protein is present. Type AB - Both proteins are present. Type O - Neither protein is present (almost 40% of the population). A third protein called the Rh Factor (named for its discovery in the blood of a Rhesus Monkey) determines whether the type is positive or negative."

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."

Human blood type is determined by the presence or absence of certain identifiers on the surface of red blood cells. These identifiers, also called antigens, help the body's immune system to recognize it's own red blood cell type. There are four main ABO blood type groupings: A, B, AB, and O. These blood groups are determined by the antigen on the blood cell surface and the antibodies present in the blood plasma. Antibodies (also called immunoglobulins) are specialized proteins that identify and defend against foreign intruders to the body. Antibodies recognize and bind to specific antigens so that the foreign substance can be destroyed. Antibodies in an individual's blood plasma will be different from the antigen type present on the red blood cell surface. For example, a person with type A blood will have A antigens on the blood cell membrane and type B antibodies (anti-B) in the blood plasma.

His doctor also agreed with him. Are both the blood groups O negative and O positive called universal donors? Please clarify. A: The concepts of universal donor and universal recipient are more for simplicity sake as ideally only blood group matched unit is transfused. As red blood cells of blood group O-negative carry 'no antigen', it can be given to any other group and is thus called universal donor. Blood group O-positive cells cannot be given to any Rh-negative individual. In contrast, the plasma of AB blood group contains no ABO antibodies and can thus receive red cells of any ABO blood group."

"text": "Diet for B Negative Blood Typeby MICHELLE KERNS Oct. 03, 2017People who follow the Blood Type Diet, developed by naturopath Peter J. D'Adamo, believe you can lose weight, become more energetic and enhance your health by eating foods specified for your particular blood type. If you belong to the B blood group, D'Adamo claims you are directly descended from ancient steppe dwellers in Mongolia. Whether you have B negative or B positive blood -- according to D'Adamo, the Rh factor that determines negative or positive blood is not affected by food -- D'Adamo says your blood will be incompatible with the lectin compounds in foods that your ancestors did not eat, resulting in poor health and weight gain. Health professionals, however, contend there is no scientific evidence to support the Blood Type Diet and that it may potentially cause nutritional deficiencies. Do not make significant changes to your eating habits without first speaking to your doctor. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Protein D'Adamo recommends people who belong to the B negative blood group get their protein from meats like mutton, venison, goat, lamb and rabbit; deep ocean fish like salmon, sea trout, cod, halibut and mackerel; dairy products like skim or 2 percent milk, yogurt, cottage cheese and mozzarella cheese; and beans, especially kidney, navy or lima beans. People with type B blood can eat foods like beef, turkey, tuna, cheddar and Parmesan cheese and cannellini beans occasionally, but should not eat any nuts, lentils, blue cheese, pork products, shellfish or chicken. Adherents to the Blood Type Diet claim chicken meat contains a lectin that attacks the bloodstream and can cause type B individuals to have strokes or develop immune system disorders. Carbohydrates Blood type B individuals should avoid all wheat, corn, barley, bulghur, rye and buckwheat products because, according to D'Adamo, these foods contain lectins that will trigger insulin problems, blood disorders, excessive fatigue and weight gain. People belonging to the B negative blood group should stick with rice, oatmeal, oat bran or millet and using rice or oat flour for baking and cooking."

"text": "Blood Groups and Compatibilities There are many blood groups in the human population including ABO, Rh, Kidd, Kell, Duffy, MNS and Lewis. The most important of these are ABO and Rh D. Transfusion with ABO incompatible blood can lead to severe and potentially fatal transfusion reactions. Rh D is highly immunogenic and can lead to red cell haemolysis in certain settings. ABO antigens and antibodies The ABO blood group is the most important of all the blood group systems. There are four different ABO blood groups (see Table1), determined by whether or not an individual's red cells carry the A antigen, the B antigen, both A and B antigens or neither. Normal healthy individuals, from early in childhood, make red cell antibodies against A or B antigens that are not expressed on their own cells. These naturally occurring antibodies are mainly Ig M immunoglobulins. They attack and rapidly destroy red cells carrying the corresponding antigen. For example, anti-A attacks red cells of Group A or AB. Anti-B attacks red cells of Group B or AB."

It is not to be confused with type 0. Blood type (or blood group) is determined, in part, by the ABO blood group antigens present on red blood cells. A blood type (also called a blood group) is a classification of blood based on the presence and absence of antibodies and also based on the presence or absence of inherited antigenic substances on the surface of red blood cells (RBCs). These antigens may be proteins, carbohydrates, glycoproteins, or glycolipids, depending on the blood group system. Some of these antigens are also present on the surface of other types of cells of various tissues. Several of these red blood cell surface antigens can stem from one allele (or an alternative version of a gene) and collectively form a blood group system. [ 1] Blood types are inherited and represent contributions from both parents. A total of 35 human blood group systems are now recognized by the International Society of Blood Transfusion (ISBT). ["

"text": "Eating for Your Blood Type: O+ & O-Written By Be Well Buzz0 Shares Share On Facebook Share On Twitter Food is a requirement as old as time. It is the reason why evolution took place and why there are so many living beings in the world today that are classified into categories as meat eating, fruit eating, plant eating, and, of course, those who eat a little of everything. Over the years, it has been found that different types of blood groups have different acceptance levels with regard to the many different kinds of food in the world today. Some food is good for us, while other foods are not easily digested by certain blood types. Your blood type is a likely reason why you can digest various types of food, while some types just don’t agree with you. There is a little skepticism to this theory, but on the whole, it is widely accepted that there is some meat to this matter. Blood types and food do go hand in hand. Peter D’Adamo is a physician who specializes in naturopathy. According to him, blood type is what determines how and why people react to diets, supplements, medical treatments, and exercise in different ways. It’s a known fact that what works for one may not work for the other nine times out of ten."

Individuals who are AB blood group are commonly called universal plasma donors because their plasma can be transfused to any person of whatever blood group. The blood type is also the rarest blood types among all the blood group because it is present in only 1 out of 167 individuals. This means an approximately 0.6% of the population has an AB negative blood. Not all of the ethnic groups share the same proportions of the AB negative blood type though.

Flag Why is blood type AB the universal recipient? Answer by Premahuja123 Confidence votes 156Blood type AB is the universal recipient because individuals who have blood type AB do not have the antibodies. They do not have the anti-A or Anti-B antibodies. They can receive all types of blood types: A,B,O,AB I'm sure you've heard that a universal blood donor can give blood to anyone, and that a universal recipient can receive blood from anyone. It's not true when \"\"Whole blood\"\" from a donor is given. Whole blood consists of red cells, white cells, platelets and other components floating in plasma. Therefore, whole blood can only be given to someone who has the exact same blood type. Giving whole blood from a \"\"universal donor\"\" to someone of a different blood type would cause a transfusion reaction and most likely result in death. What the universal donor and recipient rule refers to is \"\"packed red cells.\"\""

"text": "Infinitive Phrase Sometimes a word or phrase appears to be a verb when, in fact, it’s something else. It’s important to look at the function that a word or phrase plays in a sentence before determining its part of speech. What Is an Infinitive Phrase? An infinitive is a verb form that typically begins with the word to. An infinitive phrase includes the infinitive, plus any modifiers and complements. Infinitives and infinitive phrases can function as nouns, adjectives, or adverbs in a sentence. As nouns, infinitives and infinitive phrases can act either as subjects, direct objects, or predicate nominatives. Noun as Subject Examples: ( To dance is the infinitive. It functions as a noun in the sentence, acting as a subject. ) To see the northern lights in person is incredible. ("

When you connect, you have to know whether or not punctuation is required. Learning the nine punctuation rules that follow will help you not only fix fragments but also punctuate your sentences correctly. Fixing Subordinate Clause Fragments When you have a subordinate clause fragment, removing one thing —the subordinating word —will give you the necessary main clause. Look at this fragment: Because Chase caught the eye of the beautiful brunette in algebra. Removing because makes the thought complete. Chase is the subject, caught the verb. Now you have a sentence!Chase caught the eye of the beautiful brunette in algebra. If, however, you need the subordinating word because of the meaning it provides, then fix the fragment by connecting it. If you attach the fragment after a main clause, use Punctuation Rule 1: Main Clause + Ø + Subordinate Clause."

"text": "\"Humanities ›Languages Why There's Nothing Wrong With Split Infinitives Share Flipboard Email Print Mirage C / Getty Imagesby Richard Nordquist Updated August 15, 2017The so-called split infinitive is a construction in which one or more words come between the particle to and the verb —as in \"\" to boldly go where no man has gone before. \"\" And despite what you may have heard, there's nothing wrong with it. History and Examples Until the 1800s, writers had been casually splitting infinitives for centuries. For example, in his Lives of the English Poets (1779-1781), Samuel Johnson observed that \"\"Milton was too busy to much miss his wife. \"\" But then, as if to illustrate Pope's dictum that \"\"a little learning is a dangerous thing,\"\" a small gang of grammaticasters decided to turn the split infinitive into a problem. One of the chief trouble-makers was a British churchman named Henry Alford. Editor Patricia T. O'Conner recounts the story: In a widely popular grammar book, A Plea for the Queen's English (1864), [Alford] mistakenly declared that 'to' was part of the infinitive and that the parts were inseparable. He was probably influenced by the fact that the infinitive, the simplest form of a verb, is one word in Latin and thus can't be split. But Alford was unaware that the infinitive is just one word in English too. You can't split it, since \"\"to\"\" is just a prepositional marker and not part of the infinitive."

You will remember from the chapter on Parts of Speech that nouns and noun equivalents fall into three cases according to their use in the sentence: subjective, objective, or possessive. Subjects are always in the subjective case, and most complements (all except the subjective complement) are in the objective case. With nouns, distinguishing between subjective and objective presents no problems--they look exactly the same in either case. In the sentence, \"\"Mulroy lost his shirt,\"\" Mulroy is in the subjective case; shirt is in the objective. In the sentence, \"\"The shirt belonged to Mulroy,\"\" shirt is subjective, and Mulroy is objective. Only in the possessive case do we see a distinction: \"\"Mulroy's shirt was lost.\"\" Mulroy's is possessive; shirt is subjective.

For example, He said \"\"I'm coming\"\" is direct speech, whereas He said (that) he was coming is indirect speech. Indirect speech should not be confused with indirect speech acts. In grammar, indirect speech often makes use of certain syntactic structures such as content clauses (\"\"that\"\" clauses, such as (that) he was coming ), and sometimes infinitive phrases. References to questions in indirect speech frequently take the form of interrogative content clauses, also called indirect questions (such as whether he was coming ). In indirect speech certain grammatical categories are changed relative to the words of the original sentence. [ 1] For example, person may change as a result of a change of speaker or listener (as I changes to he in the example above). In some languages, including English, the tense of verbs is often changed – this is often called sequence of tenses. Some languages have a change of mood: Latin switches from indicative to the infinitive (for statements) or the subjunctive (for questions).

The Adjective Phrase Complement in English Grammar Adjective phrase complements are words, phrases, and clauses that complete the meaning of an adjective or adjective phrase. Unlike adjective phrase modifiers that modify or describe an adjective or adjective phrase, adjective phrase complements complete the meaning of an adjective or adjective phrase. Three grammatical forms can function as adjective phrase complements. The three grammatical forms that can function as adjective phrase complements are: Prepositional phrase Verb phrase Noun clause The following sections explain and provide examples of the three grammatical forms that can function as adjective phrase complements in English grammar. Prepositional Phrases as Adjective Phrase Complements The first grammatical form that can perform the grammatical function of adjective phrase complement is the prepositional phrase. A prepositional phrase is defined as a preposition, which is traditionally defined as “a word or words that relates a noun, adjective, or verb to another noun, adjective, or verb,” directly followed by a prepositional complement in the form of a noun phrase, noun clause, verb phrase, or prepositional phrase. For example, the following italicized prepositional phrases function as adjective phrase complements: My wife is worried about our financial situation. This restaurant is famous for its burgers.

NOUN PHRASEA noun phrase comprises a noun (obviously) and any associated modifiers: The long and winding road A noun phraseany associated modifiers The modifiers that accompany a noun can take any number of forms and combination of forms: adjectives, of course (\"\"the tall and brilliant professor\"\"); a participial phrase (\"\"the road following the edge of the frozen lake\"\"); an infinitive phrase (\"\"the first man to walk on the moon\"\"); a modifying clause (\"\"the presentation that he had made the day before\"\"); and prepositional phrases (\"\"the building next to the lodge, over by the highway\"\"). [ See below for definitions of participial, infinitive, and prepositional phrases.] Usually, a noun phrase will be all of a piece, all the words that compose it being contiguous with the noun itself. It is possible, however, for a noun phrase to be broken, to become what we call discontinuous. Sometimes part of the noun phrase is delayed until the end of the sentence so that that portion of the phrase (usually modifying phrases — participial or prepositional) can receive end weight or focus. In our first example, for instance (noun phrase in dark red) ,Several accidents have been reported involving passengers falling from trains .we could have put the entire noun phrase together: \"\" Several accidents involving passengers falling from trains have been reported recently.\"\""

Contributors: Purdue OWL Last Edited: 2010-04-17 05:52:38An infinitive is a verbal consisting of the word to plus a verb (in its simplest \"\"stem\"\" form) and functioning as a noun, adjective, or adverb. The term verbal indicates that an infinitive, like the other two kinds of verbals, is based on a verb and therefore expresses action or a state of being. However, the infinitive may function as a subject, direct object, subject complement, adjective, or adverb in a sentence. Although an infinitive is easy to locate because of the to + verb form, deciding what function it has in a sentence can sometimes be confusing. To wait seemed foolish when decisive action was required. ( subject)Everyone wanted to go. ( direct object)His ambition is to fly. ( subject complement)He lacked the strength to resist.

A Lithognathus fish with a parasitic isopod, Cymothoa exigua, a fish parasite In evolutionary biology, parasitism is a relationship between species, where one organism, the parasite, lives on or in another organism, the host, causing it some harm, and is adapted structurally to this way of life. [ 1] The entomologist E. O. Wilson has characterised parasites as \"\"predators that eat prey in units of less than one\"\". [ 2] Parasites include protozoans such as the agents of malaria, sleeping sickness, and amoebic dysentery; animals such as hookworms, lice, mosquitoes, and vampire bats; fungi such as honey fungus and the agents of ringworm; and plants such as mistletoe and dodder. There are six major parasitic strategies of host exploitation, namely parasitic castration, directly transmitted parasitism (by contact), trophically transmitted parasitism (by being eaten), vector -transmitted parasitism, parasitoidism, and micropredation. Unlike predators, parasites, with the exception of parasitoids, typically do not kill their host, are generally much smaller than their host, and often live in or on their host for an extended period. Parasitism is a type of consumer-resource interaction. [ 3] Parasites of animals show a high degree of specialisation, and reproduce at a faster rate than their hosts. Classic examples include interactions between vertebrate hosts and tapeworms, flukes, the malaria-causing Plasmodium species, and fleas."

"text": "Sexual reproduction in eukaryotes, Biology Sexual reproduction in Eukaryotes In most eukaryotes, especially higher animals, individuals normally exhibit one or two sex phenotypes; female or male. In such species, females produce the female gametes-eggs, ovules or macrospores and males produce the male gamets -sperm, pollen or microsproes. Species with separation of sexes in different individuals are called dioecious or monosexual organisms. All higher organisms and some higher plants are dioecious. Species in which both male and female gametes are produced by each individual are called monoecious or bisexual organisms. In lower animals, the production of both eggs and sperms by the same organisms is more commonly called hermaphroditism, and individual organisms producing both the types of gametes are termed hermaphrodites. Although the two sex phenotypes are usually quite easily distinguished in humans and fruit flies, it is not universally the case. In lower or the 'primitive' eukaryotes, the two sexes are phenotypically indistinguishable except for their reproductive organs. Indeed, in lower eukaryotes the two genetically distinct types of gametes are sometimes morphologically indistinguishable. This is called isogamy (iso meaning 'same')."

[ 1] At least 22 species of primate, including humans, bonobos, colobines, gorillas, lemurs, macaques, mangabeys [ disambiguation needed], marmosets and vervet monkeys are known to feed on fungi. Most of these species spend less than 5% of the time they spend feeding eating fungi, and fungi therefore form only a small part of their diet. Some species spend longer foraging for fungi, and fungi account for a greater part of their diet; buffy-tufted marmosets spend up to 12% of their time consuming sporocarps, Goeldi’s monkeys spend up to 63% of their time doing so and the Yunnan snub-nosed monkey spends up to 95% of its feeding time eating lichens. Fungi are comparatively very rare in tropical rainforests compared to other food sources such as fruit and leaves and they are also distributed more sparsely and appear unpredictably, making them a challenging source of food for Goeldi’s monkeys. [ 2]Fungi are renowned for their poisons to deter animals from feeding on them: even today humans die from eating poisonous fungi. A natural consequence of this is the virtual absence of obligate vertebrate fungivores, with the diprotodont family Potoridae being the major exception."

In a symbiotic mutualistic relationship, the clownfish feeds on small invertebrates that otherwise have potential to harm the sea anemone, and the fecal matter from the clownfish provides nutrients to the sea anemone. The clownfish is additionally protected from predators by the anemone's stinging cells, to which the clownfish is immune. The clownfish also emits a high pitched sound that deters butterfly fish, which would otherwise eat the anemone. [ 1]Symbiosis (from Greek συμβίωσις \"\"living together\"\", from σύν \"\"together\"\" and βίωσις \"\"living\"\") [2] is any type of a close and long-term biological interaction between two different biological organisms, be it mutualistic, commensalistic, or parasitic.

Plants utilize the sun's energy, animals eat plants and utilize the plants' energy, and some animals eat other animals and utilize their energy. The food chain is a cycle of predation, and although it is necessary for life to exist, it has to have limits. Prey develop defenses against their predators, and predators strive to overcome such obstacles. The balance between survival of prey and predator is part of the reason that our ecosystem is so diverse. The skunk is an example of a prey who uses its chemical defense to scare off predators. The skunk releases a toxin or noxious compound that has a foul smell/odor to it It is easy to think of predation in the context of common sense. Predator eats prey. However, ecologically, predation is defined as any interaction between two organisms that results in a flow of energy between them [1]. This definition is applicable to both plants and animals."

One category of interactions describes the different ways organisms obtain their food and energy. Some organisms can make their own food, and other organisms have to get their food by eating other organisms. An organism that must obtain their nutrients by eating (consuming) other organisms is called a consumer, or a heterotroph.

Mourning doves ( Zenaida macroura) on their nest protected within the prickly branches of a cactus in the Sonoran Desert, Arizona, U. S.© C. K. Lorenz, The National Audubon Society Collection/Photo Researchers The word ecology was coined by the German zoologist Ernst Haeckel, who applied the term oekologie to the “relation of the animal both to its organic as well as its inorganic environment.” The word comes from the Greek oikos, meaning “household,” “home,” or “place to live.” Thus, ecology deals with the organism and its environment. The concept of environment includes both other organisms and physical surroundings. It involves relationships between individuals within a population and between individuals of different populations. These interactions between individuals, between populations, and between organisms and their environment form ecological systems, or ecosystem s. Ecology has been defined variously as “the study of the interrelationships of organisms with their environment and each other,” as “the economy of nature,” and as “the biology of ecosystems. ”Ernst Haeckel, c. 1870.

Another name for food web is consumer-resource system. Ecologists can broadly lump all life forms into one of two categories called trophic levels: 1) the autotrophs, and 2) the heterotrophs. To maintain their bodies, grow, develop, and to reproduce, autotrophs produce organic matter from inorganic substances, including both minerals and gases such as carbon dioxide. These chemical reactions require energy, which mainly comes from the Sun and largely by photosynthesis, although a very small amount comes from hydrothermal vents and hot springs. A gradient exists between trophic levels running from complete autotrophs that obtain their sole source of carbon from the atmosphere, to mixotrophs (such as carnivorous plants) that are autotrophic organisms that partially obtain organic matter from sources other than the atmosphere, and complete heterotrophs that must feed to obtain organic matter. The linkages in a food web illustrate the feeding pathways, such as where heterotrophs obtain organic matter by feeding on autotrophs and other heterotrophs. The food web is a simplified illustration of the various methods of feeding that links an ecosystem into a unified system of exchange. There are different kinds of feeding relations that can be roughly divided into herbivory, carnivory, scavenging and parasitism.

A gradient exists between trophic levels running from complete autotrophs that obtain their sole source of carbon from the atmosphere, to mixotrophs (such as carnivorous plants) that are autotrophic organisms that partially obtain organic matter from sources other than the atmosphere, and complete heterotrophs that must feed to obtain organic matter. The linkages in a food web illustrate the feeding pathways, such as where heterotrophs obtain organic matter by feeding on autotrophs and other heterotrophs. The food web is a simplified illustration of the various methods of feeding that links an ecosystem into a unified system of exchange. There are different kinds of feeding relations that can be roughly divided into herbivory, carnivory, scavenging and parasitism. Some of the organic matter eaten by heterotrophs, such as sugars, provides energy."

The biosphere is a global ecosystem composed of living organisms (biota) and the abiotic (nonliving) factors from which they derive energy and nutrients. Earth's environmental spheres Earth's environment includes the atmosphere, the hydrosphere, the lithosphere, and the biosphere. Encyclopædia Britannica, Inc. Before the coming of life, Earth was a bleak place, a rocky globe with shallow seas and a thin band of gases—largely carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, molecular nitrogen, hydrogen sulfide, and water vapour. It was a hostile and barren planet. This strictly inorganic state of the Earth is called the geosphere; it consists of the lithosphere (the rock and soil), the hydrosphere (the water), and the atmosphere (the air). Energy from the Sun relentlessly bombarded the surface of the primitive Earth, and in time—millions of years—chemical and physical actions produced the first evidence of life: formless, jellylike blobs that could collect energy from the environment and produce more of their own kind. This generation of life in the thin outer layer of the geosphere established what is called the biosphere, the “zone of life,” an energy-diverting skin that uses the matter of the Earth to make living substance. The biosphere is a system characterized by the continuous cycling of matter and an accompanying flow of solar energy in which certain large molecules and cells are self-reproducing. Water is a major predisposing factor, for all life depends on it."

NEW AGE SPIRITUALITY: AN OVERVIEWChristians in many Western societies, and increasingly also in other parts of the world, frequently come into contact with different aspects of the phenomenon known as New Age. Many of them feel the need to understand how they can best approach something which is at once so alluring, complex, elusive and, at times, disturbing. These reflections are an attempt to help Christians do two things:—to identify elements of the developing New Age tradition;—to indicate those elements which are inconsistent with the Christian revelation. This is a pastoral response to a current challenge, which does not even attempt to provide an exhaustive list of New Age phenomena, since that would result in a very bulky tome, and such information is readily available elsewhere. It is essential to try to understand New Age correctly, in order to evaluate it fairly, and avoid creating a caricature. It would be unwise and untrue to say that everything connected with the New Age movement is good, or that everything about it is bad. Nevertheless, given the underlying vision of New Age religiosity, it is on the whole difficult to reconcile it with Christian doctrine and spirituality. New Age is not a movement in the sense normally intended in the term \"\"New Religious Movement\"\", and it is not what is normally meant by the terms \"\"cult\"\" and \"\"sect\"\"."

It has been found scratched on the walls of Neolithic caves, and in Babylonian drawings, where it marks the pattern the planet Venus makes on its travels- a secret symbol of the Goddess Ishtar.

In attempting a definition of ‘ fi t rah ’, I give an exposition of its linguistic and religious meaning. The religious understanding of fi t rah is based on the positive interpretation of fi t rah …Suffice it to say that linguistic and positive religious explanations have one thing in common: both define fi t rah as an inborn natural predisposition which cannot change, and which exists at birth in all human beings. What makes our religious understanding positive is that it not only acknowledges fi t rah as a natural predisposition, but also one which is inclined towards right action and submission to Allâh, the One God. After discussing the implications for human responsibility, I compare, for the benefit of Western readers, the Islamic concept of original goodness with the Christian concept of original sin. I argue that the doctrine of original sin, from an Islâmic point of view, cannot be reconciled with the notion of Divine mercy nor the human responsibility. Since the doctrine of original sin features significantly in the Christian concept of human nature, and as Islâm and Christianity are the world’s largest revealed religions, this aspect of their creeds presents an interesting contrast, well worth investigating.1. The Linguistic Meaning of Fitrah‘Every new-born child is born in a state of fi t rah. Then his parents make him a Jew, a Christian or a Magian, just as an animal is born intact. Do you observe any among them that are maimed (at birth)?’ [ 1]The word fi t rah comes from the Arabic radicals fa t a ra, the verbal noun being fa t run."

"text": "\"What Does It Mean To Be a Muslim Today?by Riffat Hissan To be a Muslim today--or any day--is to live in accordance with the will and pleasure of Allah. Muslims often say, with joy and pride, that it is easy to be a Muslim since Islam is \"\"the straight path\"\" leading to paradise. What this means, in other words, is that the principles of Islam are simple and straightforward, free of ambiguities, confusions, inconsistencies or mysteries, and that comprehending them or living in accordance with them is not difficult. The assumption here is that if one somehow comes to \"\"the straight path\"\" by accepting Islam, which is Allah's last and final revelation to humanity, one will fairly effortlessly arrive at the destination which is a state of eternal blessedness in the presence of Allah. I must confess that I am totally amazed, and overwhelmed, by this assumption. To me, being a Muslim today--or any day--seems to be exceedingly hard, for to be a Muslim one has constantly to face the challenge, first of knowing what Allah wills or desires not only for humanity in general but also for oneself in particular, and then of doing what one believes to be Allah's will and pleasure each moment of one's life. In view of the stereotyping of Islam and Muslims which has gone on in the West for many centuries, and especially since the Arab oil embargo of 1973 and the Iranian Revolution of 1979, it is necessary to state at the outset of this article that \"\"the world of Islam\"\" is not a monolith and that Muslims differ as sharply within their \"\"ummah\"\" 1 of one billion persons as do adherents of other major religious traditions within their own respective communities. Therefore, my perception and understanding of Islamic ideals and Muslim realities as presented here ought not to be taken as those of Muslims in general. At the same time, from my encounters with many Muslims in different parts of the world I believe that my response to the question \"\"What does it mean to be a Muslim today?\"\" is grounded in an Islamic perspective which is shared by a number of contemporary Muslims."

Such divine beings figure in many different religious systems, yet they manifest values and symbolic associations that display remarkable similarities. The first section of this article presents, in a general way, the power, attributes, and values common to a large number of supreme beings. The second section illustrates these features by referring to specific historical forms of supreme beings. The final section summarizes the history of scholarly interpretations of the origin, nature, and meaning of these singularly important and complex supernatural beings. General Features A supreme being is generally described in symbolic terms that reflect the values most highly appraised in a specific historical situation. Considering the complexities of any culture's history, it is extraordinary that a comparative discussion of the nature of supreme beings constantly returns to the same cluster of religious ideas. Without prejudice to one or another aspect of supreme being highlighted in one historical moment or another, this article presents here a general view of the kinds of power and value revealed in supreme beings. It should be noted that the intricacies of history make general statements a source of great controversy.

More recent work often involves a broader, more global approach, taking into consideration both theistic and non-theistic religious traditions. The range of those engaged in the field of philosophy of religion is broad and diverse and includes philosophers from the analytic and continental traditions, Eastern and Western thinkers, religious believers and agnostics, skeptics and atheists. Philosophy of religion draws on all of the major areas of philosophy as well as other relevant fields, including theology, history, sociology, psychology, and the natural sciences. There are a number of themes that fall under the domain of philosophy of religion as it is commonly practiced in academic departments in North America and Europe.

"text": "\"Why Gurdjieff's \"\"Fourth Way\"\" Teachings are not Compatible with the Mevlevi Sufi Wayby Ibrahim Gamard, 11/6/04, revised 12/3/05The Present Confusion The following article is intended to share information, based on the author's conclusions after studying this subject for many years. Though it may be controversial, the intent is to stimulate respectful discussion--not angry debate. And the aim is certainly not to blame or condemn individuals currently involved practices based on Gurdjieff's teachings. After all, a number of contemporary Mevlevis in Western countries were themselves trained through such teachings to some extent, and report that it was quite helpful in preparing them for the Mevlevi dervish path. There has been much confusion for decades about the so-called \"\"sufi origins\"\" of Gurdjieff's teachings, beliefs that Gurdjieff himself was a sufi (of the \"\"blame-seeking\"\" [malâmâtî] kind, as some have speculated) and assumptions that the spiritual training he gave to his students was \"\"dervish training\"\" and that the movement exercises he taught were \"\"dervish dance movements. \"\" This confusion has been increased by some of Gurdjieff's disciples themselves, such as Ouspensky, who apparently believed that the Mevlevi tradition was the source of Gurdjieff's teachings 1 and J. G. Bennett ,who believed that the Khwajagan sufi masters of Central Asia, the forerunners of the strictly Islamic Naqshbandi sufi tradition, were closely linked with the mysterious source of Gurdjieff's teachings--the \"\"Sarmân Brotherhood.\"\" 2Others have gone to authentic Muslim sufi teachers and added to the confusion by hoping to find the roots of Gurdjieff's teachings in the Islamic sufi tradition: as a result, such seekers have been disappointed by finding \"\"merely religious\"\" Islamic mystical teachings. And some Muslim sufi teachers have been confused by such seekers (who sometimes have an impressive level of dervish-like self-development) but who have very little interest in Islam or praying and are actually hoping to find \"\"esoteric teachings\"\" or \"\"secret Masters\"\" with paranormal powers. In addition, there are Western sufi teachers, who continue to encourage their followers to combine sufi training with Gurdjieffian teachings and spiritual practices, including some affiliated with the Mevlevi tradition. There is also atleast one \"\"Fourth Way\"\" group in which members, after being trained to do the complicated Gurdjieff movements exercises, are then taught to do the whirling practice of Mevlevi dervishes as well as the Mevlevi Whirling Prayer Ceremony (Samâ`)."

They were alive like human beings and animals, but did not move from place to place; like mountains and stones they seemed immobile, but at the same time could change and sway. Dense forests may have seemed mysterious. Even lone trees, particularly in a barren spot, may have appeared miraculous if they provided food for a starving wanderer. Trees were seen and touched by the earliest humans; utilized for food, fuel, shelter, clothing, fences and barriers, lances and spears; and burned, cut or transformed into numerous objects. Their shadows provided cover, camouflage and hiding places for persons on either side of the law. Over time, forests and individual species of trees have come to represent different concepts in the imaginations of populations living in various geographical locations.

They revered him as a great Christian author and apologist for true, Bible-believing Christianity. Frankly, this was a great surprise to me because, as a longtime practitioner of the New Age, I knew what C S Lewis was ‘really’ teaching.

Symbols - Representations - Correspondences Animal Symbols, Astrology Symbols, Celtic Symbols, Zodiac and Horoscope, Love Signs, and other Magic Symbols, Emblems, Glyphs, and Tattoo designs we take for granted today as static signs of religious or secular life were created long ago and through modern Iconography have been revealed as representations of our world—our universe—the movements of earth and heaven, symbols of the seasons, and representations of cosmic and earthly deities. Over time, these ancient symbols have acquired layers of increasingly complex meaning, and this evolution of meaning tells us much about how we developed our ideas about the nature of life and the universe. Signs used in modern magick and Western religious traditions such as the Celtic symbols, zodiac symbols, Egyptian symbols, tattoo symbols, dream symbols, kanji symbols, religious symbols, love symbols, ancient symbols, mystic signs and symbols, Greek symbols, Irish symbols and their symbol meanings, share a common ancestry that dates before the creation of writing.

To possess one brings true love and fidelity, friendship, and a gentle nature, bestowing the gifts of courage and wisdom, and success in all endeavors.

It brings solid, lasting energy, joy, generosity and abundance. Blue Topaz draws its solar influence from the entire sky, where strength and vitality become inspiration, breath and momentum. It promotes truth and forgiveness, expression, and the confidence to fulfill one’s aspirations. Topaz is also considered to have lunar connections, its color and power waxing and waning in union with the moon’s cycle.

( July 2016)This article describes a work or element of fiction in a primarily in-universe style. ( July 2016)In J. K. Rowling 's Harry Potter series, magic is depicted as a supernatural force that can be used to override the usual laws of nature. Many fictional magical creatures exist in the series, while ordinary creatures sometimes exhibit new magical properties in the novel's world. Objects, too, can be enhanced or imbued with magical property. The small percentage of humans who are able to perform magic are referred to as witches and wizards, in contrast to the non-magical muggles. In humans, magic or the lack thereof is an inborn attribute. It is inherited, carried on \"\"dominant resilient genes\"\". ["

[ 3] These writings have greatly influenced the Western esoteric tradition and were considered to be of great importance during both the Renaissance [4] and the Reformation. [ 5] The tradition claims descent from a prisca theologia, a doctrine that affirms the existence of a single, true theology that is present in all religions and that was given by God to man in antiquity. [ 6] [7]Many writers, including Lactantius, Cyprian of Carthage, [8] Augustine, [9]Marsilio Ficino, Giovanni Pico della Mirandola, Giordano Bruno, Campanella, Sir Thomas Browne, and Ralph Waldo Emerson, considered Hermes Trismegistus to be a wise pagan prophet who foresaw the coming of Christianity. [ 10] [11] St. Thomas Aquinas reported that Trismegistus arrived at something akin to the doctrine of the Trinity. [ 12]An account of how Hermes Trismegistus received the name \"\"Thrice Great\"\" is derived from the Emerald Tablet of Hermes Trismegistus, wherein it is stated that he knew the three parts of the wisdom of the whole universe. [ 13] The three parts of the wisdom are alchemy, astrology, and theurgy. The Poimandres, from which Marsilio Ficino formed his opinion, states that \"\"They called him Trismegistus because he was the greatest philosopher and the greatest priest and the greatest king.\"\" ["

The Shorter Answer Hermeticism is an ancient spiritual, philosophical, and magical tradition. It is a path of spiritual growth. Hermeticism takes its name from the God Hermês Trismegistos (Greek, \"\"Thrice-Greatest Hermes\"\"), a Græco-Egyptian form of the great Egyptian God of Wisdom and Magic, Thôth. What the Hermetic Fellowship defines as Hermeticism has also been called the Western Esoteric Tradition, and embraces the Perennial Philosophy or the Ageless Wisdom. Generally, the following can be said to be characteristic of the positive form of Hermeticism advocated by the Hermetic Fellowship. Hermeticism: Considers humanity to be on a spiritual journey to return to a state of unity with the Divine; this is the Great Work of humankind. Holds that if we would attain to the Divine, we must aspire to the Divine; spiritual growth cannot be achieved without human effort Is eclectic and draws material from sources spanning the entire Western Esoteric Tradition Is polytheistic, yet ultimately monotheisitic ( i.e., posits a multiplicity of Manifestations of the Divine Which emanate from an ultimate Divine Unity)Holds that the Divine is both immanent and transcendent Holds that the Universe is Divine and basically good Teaches that when we seek the Divine, we may best begin with the Mysteries of Nature Encourages spiritual curiosity Understands that human beings can access the Subtle Realms through technique and aspiration; to this end, it embraces theurgy, meditation, ritual, and other spiritual and magical practices Urges those who seek the Divine to also seek balance in embracing all things Is a poetic rather than an ascetic worldview The Longer Answer The Historical Background of Hermeticism The Corpus Hermeticum and other Hermetica The Beliefs and Values of Hermeticism The Historical Background of Hermeticism Hermes & Thoth Hermeticism takes its name from the God Hermes Trismegistos or Thrice-Greatest Hermes."

Such means include the use of words, the use of diagrams, the use of numbers, the use of equations, and the use of graphs. Lesson 4 focuses on the use of velocity versus time graphs to describe motion. As we will learn, the specific features of the motion of objects are demonstrated by the shape and the slope of the lines on a velocity vs. time graph. The first part of this lesson involves a study of the relationship between the shape of a v-t graph and the motion of the object. Constant Velocity versus Changing Velocity Consider a car moving with a constant, rightward (+) velocity - say of +10 m/s. As learned in an earlier lesson, a car moving with a constant velocity is a car with zero acceleration. If the velocity-time data for such a car were graphed, then the resulting graph would look like the graph at the right. Note that a motion described as a constant, positive velocity results in a line of zero slope (a horizontal line has zero slope) when plotted as a velocity-time graph. Furthermore, only positive velocity values are plotted, corresponding to a motion with positive velocity."

Even if moving around the perimeter of the circle with a constant speed, there is still a change in velocity and subsequently an acceleration. This acceleration is directed towards the center of the circle. And in accord with Newton's second law of motion, an object which experiences an acceleration must also be experiencing a net force. The direction of the net force is in the same direction as the acceleration. So for an object moving in a circle, there must be an inward force acting upon it in order to cause its inward acceleration. This is sometimes referred to as the centripetal force requirement. The word centripetal (not to be confused with the F-word centrifugal) means center seeking. For object's moving in circular motion, there is a net force acting towards the center which causes the object to seek the center. To understand the importance of a centripetal force, it is important to have a sturdy understanding of the Newton's first law of motion - the law of inertia."

You can also stabilize motion, in which case the tracking data is used to animate the tracked layer to compensate for movement of an object in that layer. You can link properties to tracking data using expressions, which opens up a wide variety of uses. After Effects tracks motion by matching image data from a selected area in a frame to image data in each succeeding frame. You can apply the same tracking data to different layers or effects. You can also track multiple objects in the same layer. Note: In After Effects, you can track camera motion and place 3D objects in 2D footage much more easily using the 3D camera tracker.

"text": "\"Simple Harmonic Motion: A Special Periodic Motion Describe a simple harmonic oscillator. Explain the link between simple harmonic motion and waves. The oscillations of a system in which the net force can be described by Hooke’s law are of special importance, because they are very common. They are also the simplest oscillatory systems. Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM) is the name given to oscillatory motion for a system where the net force can be described by Hooke’s law, and such a system is called a simple harmonic oscillator. If the net force can be described by Hooke’s law and there is no damping (by friction or other non-conservative forces), then a simple harmonic oscillator will oscillate with equal displacement on either side of the equilibrium position, as shown for an object on a spring in [link]. The maximum displacement from equilibrium is called the amplitude X. The units for amplitude and displacement are the same, but depend on the type of oscillation. For the object on the spring, the units of amplitude and displacement are meters; whereas for sound oscillations, they have units of pressure (and other types of oscillations have yet other units). Because amplitude is the maximum displacement, it is related to the energy in the oscillation.

The motion of a moving object can be explained using either Newton's Laws ( Unit 2 of The Physics Classroom) and vector principles ( Unit 3 of The Physics Classroom) or by means of the Work-Energy Theorem ( Unit 5 of The Physics Classroom ). The same concepts and principles used to describe and explain the motion of an object can be used to describe and explain the parabolic motion of a projectile. In this unit, we will see that these same concepts and principles can also be used to describe and explain the motion of objects that either move in circles or can be approximated to be moving in circles. Kinematic concepts and motion principles will be applied to the motion of objects in circles and then extended to analyze the motion of such objects as roller coaster cars, a football player making a circular turn, and a planet orbiting the sun. We will see that the beauty and power of physics lies in the fact that a few simple concepts and principles can be used to explain the mechanics of the entire universe. Lesson 1 of this study will begin with the development of kinematic and dynamic ideas that can be used to describe and explain the motion of objects in circles. Suppose that you were driving a car with the steering wheel turned in such a manner that your car followed the path of a perfect circle with a constant radius. And suppose that as you drove, your speedometer maintained a constant reading of 10 mi/hr. In such a situation as this, the motion of your car could be described as experiencing uniform circular motion."

In this unit (Newton's Laws of Motion), the ways in which motion can be explained will be discussed. Isaac Newton (a 17th century scientist) put forth a variety of laws that explain why objects move (or don't move) as they do. These three laws have become known as Newton's three laws of motion. The focus of Lesson 1 is Newton's first law of motion - sometimes referred to as the law of inertia. Newton's first law of motion is often stated as An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. Two Clauses and a Condition There are two clauses or parts to this statement - one that predicts the behavior of stationary objects and the other that predicts the behavior of moving objects. The two parts are summarized in the following diagram. The behavior of all objects can be described by saying that objects tend to \"\"keep on doing what they're doing\"\" ( unless acted upon by an unbalanced force )."

"text": "\"Home »Physics What Is the Difference Between Newton's First Law of Motion & Newton's Second Law of Motion? By Kylene Arnold; Updated April 24, 2017Isaac Newton's laws of motion have become the backbone of classical physics. These laws, first published by Newton in 1687, still accurately describe the world as we know it today. His First Law of Motion states that an object in motion tends to stay in motion unless another force acts upon it. This law is sometimes confused with the principles in his second law of motion, which states the relationship among force, mass and acceleration. In these two laws, however, Newton discusses separate principles that, although often intertwined, nevertheless describe two different aspects of mechanics. Balanced vs. Unbalanced Forces Newton's first law deals with balanced forces, or those that are in a state of equilibrium. When two forces are balanced, they cancel one another and have no net effect on the object. For example, if you and your friend both pull on opposite ends of a rope using an equal amount of force, the center of the rope will not move. Your equal, but opposite forces cancel one another."

This includes changes to the object's speed, direction, or state of rest. Inertia is also defined as the tendency of objects to keep moving in a straight line at a constant velocity. The principle of inertia is one of the fundamental principles in classical physics that are still used to describe the motion of objects and how they are affected by the applied forces on them.

Credit: Sir Godfrey Kneller Sir Isaac Newton's three laws of motion describe the motion of massive bodies and how they interact. While Newton's laws may seem obvious to us today, more than three centuries ago they were considered revolutionary. Newton was one of the most influential scientists of all time. His ideas became the basis for modern physics. He built upon ideas put forth from the works of previous scientists including Galileo and Aristotle and was able to prove some ideas that had only been theories in the past. He studied optics, astronomy and math — he invented calculus. ( German mathematician Gottfried Leibniz is also credited with developing it independently at about the same time. ) Newton is perhaps best known for his work in studying gravity and the motion of planets. Urged on by astronomer Edmond Halley after admitting he had lost his proof of elliptical orbits a few years prior, Newton published his laws in 1687, in his seminal work \"\" Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica \"\" ( Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy) in which he formalized the description of how massive bodies move under the influence of external forces."

They describe the relationship between a body and the forces acting upon it, and its motion in response to those forces. More precisely, the first law defines the force qualitatively, the second law offers a quantitative measure of the force, and the third asserts that a single isolated force doesn't exist. These three laws have been expressed in several ways, over nearly three centuries, [1] and can be summarised as follows: First law: In an inertial frame of reference, an object either remains at rest or continues to move at a constant velocity, unless acted upon by a force. [ 2] [3]Second law: In an inertial reference frame, the vector sum of the forces F on an object is equal to the mass m of that object multiplied by the accelerationa of the object: F = m a. (It is assumed here that the mass m is constant – see below . ) Third law: When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body."

"text": "\"CENTRIPETAL FORCECONCEPTMost people have heard of centripetal and centrifugal force. Though it may be somewhat difficult to keep track of which is which, chances are anyone who has heard of the two concepts remembers that one is the tendency of objects in rotation to move inward, and the other is the tendency of rotating objects to move outward. It may come as a surprise, then, to learn that there is no such thing, strictly speaking, as centrifugal (outward) force. There is only centripetal (inward) force and the inertia that makes objects in rotation under certain situations move outward, for example, a car making a turn, the movement of a roller coaster — even the spinning of a centrifuge. HOW IT WORKSLike many other principles in physics, centripetal force ultimately goes back to a few simple precepts relating to the basics of motion. Consider an object in uniform circular motion: an object moves around the center of a circle so that its speed is constant or unchanging. The formula for speed — or rather, average speed — is distance divided by time; hence, people say, for instance, \"\"miles (or kilometers) per hour.\"\" In the case of an object making a circle, distance is equal to the circumference, or distance around, the circle. From geometry, we know that the formula for calculating the circumference of a circle is 2 π r, where r is the radius, or the distance from the circumference to the center. The figure π may be rendered as 3.141592 …, though in fact, it is an irrational number: the decimal figures continue forever without repetition or pattern."

If too short, they cannot be connotative Language examples: • FORTRAN I: maximum 6 • COBOL: maximum 30 • FORTRAN 90 and ANSI C: maximum 31 • Ada and Java: no limit, and all are significant • C++: no limit, but implementers often impose a length limitation because they do not want the symbol table in which identifiers are stored during compilation to be too large and also to simplify the maintenance of that table. Names in most programming languages have the same form: a letter followed by a string consisting of letters, digits, and (_). Although the use of the _ was widely used in the 70s and 80s, that practice is far less popular. C-based languages (C, C++, Java, and C#), replaced the _ by the “camel” notation, as in my Stack. Prior to Fortran 90, the following two names are equivalent: Sum Of Salaries // names could have embedded spaces Sum Of Salaries // which were ignored• Case sensitivity – Disadvantage: readability (names that look alike are different) • worse in C++ and Java because predefined names are mixed case (e.g. Index Out Of Bounds Exception) • In C, however, exclusive use of lowercase for names. –"

"text": "April 27, 2010Evaluating the Sale-Leaseback Proposal: Should the State Sell its Office Buildings? Executive Summary Recent legislation authorized the Department of General Services (DGS) to sell and then lease back 11 state–owned office properties. The sale–leaseback is designed to free up the state’s equity in the buildings to provide one–time revenue for addressing the state’s current budgetary shortfall. The leaseback component would allow the state to retain use of the properties. The DGS has initiated the process for selling and leasing back the properties and expects to select a buyer or buyers as early as the end of May. In order to maintain oversight of the process, the legislation requires DGS to report on the terms and conditions of any sale–leaseback to the Legislature’s fiscal committees 30 days prior to completing a transaction. During this 30–day period, the Legislature has an opportunity to review the transaction and determine whether the sale–leaseback is preferable to maintaining state–ownership of the buildings. In this report, we outline the key issues the Legislature will need to consider in comparing the sale–leaseback to the status quo. Major Up Front Benefit… The major benefit of the sale–leaseback transaction is the one–time revenue from the sale of the buildings. Proceeds from the sale would first retire the bonds associated with the buildings, while the remainder would provide one–time revenue to the state’s General Fund. The 2010–11 Governor’s Budget estimates sale proceeds would provide $598 million to the General Fund."

Flag What are the actors of International Relations? Answer by Frunzaverde Confidence votes 376Most classical IR theory (i.e., realism, liberalism and world systems theory) considers that the actors (main participants/decision makers) in the international sphere are the states. That means that decisions are considered as being aggregated at state level and that the international system is the creation of the states. Constructivists and structuralists (as well as a few neorealists and neoliberals) add other actors, such as non-national entities (multi-national corporations, large NGOs), subnational entities (such as structures of government competing for ideological dominance, federal regions, lobby and pressure groups and even individuals in power) and transnational entities (such as international organizations in themselves as opposed to being just expression arenas for states) as well as ideatic structures (such as securitization complexes, social constructs, social norms and laws, ideologies etc.).

They all evolve around its two parts, “geo” and “politics.” Dealing with the possible meanings requires a thorough understanding of what distinguishes them from one another. First, “geo” can denote various geographic aspects, such as space, soil, or territory. More specifically, it can denote geographic conditions, such as the presence of natural resources in a bounded area. Whether geography should be considered a static or a dynamic factor has also been subject to debate. Furthermore, “politics” generally concerns factors that are related to power, such as foreign policy, international relations, and military strategy. Here the discussion has been fueled by different views on the relative importance of states vis-à-vis nonstate actors. Causality and its intensity is another cause of disagreement, with some arguing that geography is decisive for political outcomes (geographic determinism). An alternative view is that geographic and political processes mutually influence each other."

Learning theorists have suggested for some time that children's' concepts evolve through direct interaction with the environment, and materials provide a vehicle through which this can happen. This message has been conveyed in a number of ways: Piaget (1971) suggested that concepts are formed by children through a reconstruction of reality, not through an imitation of it; Dewey (1938) argued for the provision of firsthand experiences in a child's educational program; Bruner (1960) indicated that knowing is a process, not a product; and Dienes (1969), whose work specifically relates to mathematics instruction; suggested that children need to build or construct their own concepts from within rather than having those concepts imposed upon them. Researchers in mathematics education are in the process of accumulating a persuasive body of evidence that supports the use of manipulative materials in the mathematics classroom. In view of this, it is perplexing that relatively few programs incorporate a substantive experimental component while so many others concentrate merely on completing the pages in the ubiquitous commercially produced textbooks and workbooks. This chapter will discuss the theoretical rationale for using manipulative materials in the classroom, provide a summary of what is already known about the impact of manipulative materials on mathematics learning, discuss barriers to their use, and suggest directions for their use in future research.

"text": "THE ROLE OF GOVERNMENT IN EDUCATIONFrom Milton Friedman (1962/1982), Capitalism and Freedom (Chicago, IL: University of Chicago Press); earlier version (1955) in Robert A. Solo (Ed. ), Economics and the Public Interest, pp. 123-144 (New Brunswick, NJ: Rutgers University Press). The general trend in our times toward increasing intervention by the state in economic affairs has led to a concentration of attention and dispute on the areas where new intervention is proposed and to an acceptance of whatever intervention has so far occurred as natural and unchangeable. The current pause, perhaps reversal, in the trend toward collectivism offers an opportunity to re-examine the existing activities of government and to make a fresh assessment of the activities that are and those that are not justified. This paper attempts such a re-examination for education. Education is today largely paid for and almost entirely administered by governmental bodies or non-profit institutions. This situation has developed gradually and is now taken so much for granted that little explicit attention is any longer directed to the reasons for the special treatment of education even in countries that are predominantly free enterprise in organization and philosophy. The result has been an indiscriminate extension of governmental responsibility. The role assigned to government in any particular field depends, of course, on the principles accepted for the organization of society in general."

"text": "Chapter 3Federalism Chapter Study Outline What Is Federalism? Federalism is a form of government that divides sovereign power across at least two political units. In the context of the United States, power is divided among the national and state governments so that each government has some independent authority. Concurrent powers, which are areas of policy that are the shared responsibility of federal, state, and local governments, demand a great degree of negotiation among the different government units to enact policy. Federalism in Comparative Perspective A government is federalist only if it consists of at least two autonomous political subunits. Various forms of government are observed internationally, including: Unitary government: a system in which the national, centralized government holds ultimate authority. It is the most common form of government in the world. Confederal governmen t: a form of government in which states hold power over a limited national government. This was the first form of government in the United States under the Articles of Confederation. Unitary systems are much more common than federal systems because federal systems are complicated and involve frequent disagreements over divisions of power."

This question can best be answered by looking at the counterpart, a private good. Private goods are typically traded in markets. Buyers and sellers meet through the price mechanism. If they agree on a price, the ownership or use of the good (or service) can be transferred. Thus private goods tend to be excludable. They have clearly identified owners; and they tend to be rival. For example, others cannot enjoy a piece of cake, once consumed. Public goods have just the opposite qualities. They are non-excludable and non-rival in consumption."

[ 1] [2] Various legal systems and government agencies use different definitions. Moreover, governments have been reluctant to formulate an agreed upon and legally binding definition.

It can be committed by governments, non-state actors, or undercover personnel serving on the behalf of their respective governments. It reaches more than the immediate target victims and is also directed at targets consisting of a larger spectrum of society.

This entry will survey the main answers that have been given to the following questions. First, how should legitimacy be defined? Is it primarily a descriptive or a normative concept? If legitimacy is understood normatively, what does it entail? Some associate legitimacy with the justification of coercive power and with the creation of political authority. Others associate it with the justification, or at least the sanctioning, of existing political authority. Authority stands for a right to rule—a right to issue commands and, possibly, to enforce these commands using coercive power. An additional question is whether legitimate political authority is understood to entail political obligations or not. Most people probably think it does."

They have no tissue or organs, since those are composed of cells. Bacteria are much smaller and simpler than cells, although their DNA is surprisingly complex. Bacteria are actually quite fascinating and they have many interesting facets that are not found at all in cellular organisms. The flagellum, for example, in some varieties is powered by a tiny microscopic motor that is powered by acid. The world of bacteria is only now beginning to be opened up through the relatively young science of microbiology.

The organization of these molecules into cells is one feature that distinguishes living things from all other matter. The cell is the smallest unit of matter that can carry on all the processes of life. Every living thing, from the tiniest bacterium to the largest whale, is made of one/more cells Before the C17th, no one knew that cells existed, since they are too small to be seen with the naked eye. The invention of the microscope enabled Robert Hooke, (1665) and Anton van Leuwenhoek (1675) to see and draw the first 'cells', a word coined by Hooke to describe the cells in a thin slice of cork, which reminded him of the rooms where monks lived. The idea that all living things are made of cells was put forward in about 1840 and in 1855 came 'Cell Theory' – i.e. 'cells only come from other cells' – contradicting the earlier theory of ‘Spontaneous Generation’. Cell Theory consists of three principles: All living things are composed of one or more cells. Cells are the basic units of structure and function in an organism. Cells come only from the replication of existing cells. Cell diversity Not all cells are alike."

The entire framework of body is made up of bones, which serves as a guarding system to protect the viscera and allows locomotion. Two bones are connected by fibrous tissues that are called ligaments; whereas the muscles are connected to the bones by tendons. These connections provide the system with greater range of motion and strength. Soft parts such as nose and ear are made up of flexible connective tissues called cartilages which further protect the bones. These different parts make up organs of human skeletal system. The skeletal systems in male and female are a bit different in a few aspects, such as female pelvis is more flat and round so as to support the childbirth.

It is about the size of your fist and sits slightly to the left of the middle of your chest. The heart is one of the only organs in the circulatory system but it is one of the most important organs in your entire body. This essential organ consists of four hollow chambers: two atria (plural form of atrium) on top and two ventricles below them. These chambers work like pumps. Their job is to push blood through the body. The blood flows into the heart through the atria and out through the ventricles. At the exit of each of the chambers there is a valve that ensures that the blood flows in the correct direction when it is leaving. Below, I have added a diagram and some very helpful You Tube videos to assist with your understanding of the heart and its functions!Other important aspects of the circulatory system are arteries, veins, and capillaries. Although these are not organs, they are key elements of this system."

These cells are grouped together to make up the tissues and organs of our bodies. These cells are basically the same, but they do vary in some ways. This is because the body organs do very different things. For example, nerves and muscles do very different things. So nerve and muscle cells are different.The different types of cells can be grouped together or classified according to the job they do, or the type of body tissue they make up. For example there are: Epithelial tissue cells Connective tissue cells Cells of the blood and lymphatic system Epithelial tissueâEpithelialâ tissue is basically skin tissue that covers and lines the body. As well as covering the outside of the body, epithelial cells cover the inside too. They cover all the body organs, for example the organs of the digestive system and line the body cavities such as the inside of the chest cavity and the abdominal cavity.Most cancers are cancers of the epithelial cells. Cancers of the epithelial cells are called âcarcinomasâ. Carcinomas make up about 85% of all cancers.There are different types of epithelial cells and these can develop into different types of cancer. For example, epithelial cells can beFlat surface covering cells called squamous cells Glandular cells called adenomatous cells Layers of stretchy cells called transitional cells So you can have: Squamous cell carcinoma of squamous cells Adenocarcinoma of glandular cells Transitional cell carcinoma of transitional cells Squamous cells and adenomatous cells are found in all body organs. Cancers are named after the body organ they grow in as well as the type of cell. So a cancer of the squamous epithelial cells covering the lung would be âsquamous cell lung cancerâ.Connective tissueConnective tissue is the name for the supporting tissue of the body, the bones, cartilage, tendons and fibrous tissue that supports the body organs. Connective tissue cancers are called âsarcomasâ. Sarcomas can develop fromBone Cartilage MuscleSarcomas are much less common than carcinomas. They make up about 6% of all cancers.Blood and lymph tissueThere are many different types of blood and lymph tissue cells. These are really specialised connective tissue cells. The blood cells are made in the bone marrow in tissue called haematopoetic tissue. Blood and lymph tissue can develop intoCancers of the blood cells â leukaemias Cancers of the lymphatic system â lymphomas Leukaemias and lymphomas make up about 5% of all types of cancer. But they are the commonest type of cancer affecting children.Other body tissues and cancerOther body tissue cells can become cancerous. But these types of cancer are very rare. The biggest group of these rare cancers are brain tumours. Brain tumours develop from the cells that support the nerve cells in the brain, called glial cells. These cancers also get their names from the cells they developed from. So cancers of the glial cells are called âgliomasâ.",

Such compounds are called growth factors . Growth factors are required in small amounts by cells because they fulfill specific roles in biosynthesis. The need for a growth factor results from either a blocked or missing metabolic pathway in the cells. Growth factors are organized into three categories.1. purines and pyrimidines: required for synthesis of nucleic acids (DNA and RNA)2. amino acids: required for the synthesis of proteins3. vitamins: needed as coenzymes and functional groups of certain enzymes Some bacteria (e.g. E. coli) do not require any growth factors: they can synthesize all essential purines, pyrimidines, amino acids and vitamins, starting with their carbon source, as part of their own intermediary metabolism. Certain other bacteria (e.g. Lactobacillus) require purines, pyrimidines, vitamins and several amino acids in order to grow. These compounds must be added in advance to culture media that are used to grow these bacteria."

In an effort to discover the cause of the worldwide outbreak, sputum isolates and lung tissue of those killed during the pandemic were analyzed. H. influenzae was isolated from these samples, and at the time, was believed to be the primary pathogen causing the illness. The species of the isolate was thus named \"\"influenzae\"\". In 1933 the human influenza virus was discovered to be the causative agent of influenza. It is generally believed that the Haemophilus influenzae found in the pandemic samples was a secondary opportunistic invader.

"text": "Printer friendly version [19 pages]H. influenzae are small, pleomorphic, gram-negative bacilli or coccobacilli with random arrangements. H. influenzae is a fastidious organism which grows best at 35-37°C with ~5% CO 2 (or in a candle-jar) and requires hemin (X factor) and nicotinamide-adenine-dinucleotide (NAD, also known as V factor) for growth. The standard medium used for growth of H. influenzae is a chocolate agar plate (CAP), which can be prepared with heat-lysed horse blood, a good source of both hemin and NAD, although sheep blood can also be used. Growth occurs on a CAP because NAD is released from the blood during the heating process of chocolate agar preparation (the heating process also inactivates growth inhibitors) and hemin is available from non-hemolyzed as well as hemolyzed blood cells. Alternatively, NAD can be included as a component of liquid H. influenzae growth media supplements, (available commercially or prepared in the laboratory), which are incorporated into the chocolate agar. H. influenzae appear as large, round, smooth, convex, colorless-to-grey, opaque colonies on a CAP ( Figure 1 ). Encapsulated strains appear more mucoidal than non-encapsulated strains, which appear as smaller, compact grey colonies. No hemolysis or discoloration of the CAP is apparent. While H. influenzae produce a pungent indol smell, plates should not be opened in order to smell the cultures. H. influenzae cannot grow on an unsupplemented BAP."

"text": "Causes of cancer Since the 17th century, the field of epidemiology has been responsible for the identification of external agents capable of causing cancer. In the last decades of the 20th century, geneticists isolated internal agents—genetic variations that cause inherited predisposition to specific tumour types. Also during that period and into the 21st century, scientists gained detailed knowledge about the molecules that cause cells to develop abnormal behaviours such as limitless reproduction, invasion of surrounding tissues, and spread ( metastasis) to other regions of the body. As a result, there exists a great deal of information regarding the mechanisms by which various agents, external and internal, give rise to tumours. Whereas eliminating the ultimate causal agent is not always simple, knowing the immediate mechanism allows for interference with the abnormal, cancer-causing function, in turn facilitating the development of highly effective anticancer drugs. The molecular basis of cancer Discussion of the causes of cancers necessarily involves an examination of the molecular machinery in cells that guides the basic processes of proliferation (increase in cell number by cell division ), differentiation (cell specialization into different tissue types), and apoptosis (programmed cell death). Those processes are guided by two innate programs in cells, the genetic code and the epigenetic code. In cancer each of those codes ultimately becomes altered regardless of whether the disease originated with an external or internal factor. Indeed, a fundamental characteristic of a tumour cell is that it begets a tumour cell. In other words, cancer, once manifest, becomes an inherited disease of the cell and is therefore self-perpetuating.apoptosis Extrinsic and intrinsic factors of apoptosis."

"text": "Hormone, organic substance secreted by plants and animals that functions in the regulation of physiological activities and in maintaining homeostasis. Hormones carry out their functions by evoking responses from specific organs or tissues that are adapted to react to minute quantities of them. The classical view of hormones is that they are transmitted to their targets in the bloodstream after discharge from the glands that secrete them. This mode of discharge (directly into the bloodstream) is called endocrinesecretion. The meaning of the term hormone has been extended beyond the original definition of a blood -borne secretion, however, to include similar regulatory substances that are distributed by diffusion across cell membranes instead of by a blood system. Many important physiological functions of vertebrates are controlled by steroid hormones. Encyclopædia Britannica, Inc. Read More on This Topictherapeutics: Hormones The term hormone is derived from the Greek hormaein, meaning “to set in motion.” It refers to a chemical substance that has a regulatory effect on a certain organ or organs. There are sex hormone s such as estrogen and progesterone, thyroid hormone s, insulin READ MOREGeneral features Relationships between endocrine and neural regulation Hormonal regulation is closely related to that exerted by the nervous system, and the two processes have generally been distinguished by the rate at which each causes effects, the duration of these effects, and their extent; i.e., the effects of endocrine regulation may be slow to develop but prolonged in influence and widely distributed through the body, whereas nervous regulation is typically concerned with quick responses that are of brief duration and localized in their effects. Advances in knowledge, however, have modified these distinctions."

The main purpose of this article is to point out the motivator-hygiene factors that have a significant impact on the overall level of employee job satisfaction. The review shows that Herzberg’s motivation-hygiene theory best explained the process of motivating employees. It also indicates that achievement and company policy have significant impact on the overall level of employee job satisfaction, suggesting that managers need to focus more on these factors to better motivate employees. Keywords — Herzberg’s theory, employees’ retention techniques, employees’ motivation, Herzberg model, job satisfaction, human resources techniques, human resources responsibilities, managers’ strength, hygiene in work place. Herzberg’s Theory of Motivation 1 I. Introduction People (employees) are to an organization the most valuable asset; therefore, management of people in the workplace is the fundamental part of any of all management process. To understand the critical importance of people in an organization it is necessary to have an inclusive harmonization between the human element and the organization itself. In fact, many well-managed organizations learn to consider an average worker as the root source of quality and productivity gains. Depend on the size; many of such organizations do not look to capital investment, but to employees, as the fundamental source of improvement. Dynamic managers with knowledge about what motivates people have at their command the most powerful tool to achieve extraordinary results."

They are usually either: Tubular polyps, which protrude mushroom-like Villous adenomas, which are flat and spreading and are more apt to become malignant (cancerous)Polyps are very common, and most of them are benign. Their numbers increase with age. Polyps are found in about 25% of people by age 50, and 50% of people by age 75. Fewer than 1% of polyps under 1 centimeter (slightly less than half an inch) become cancerous.

Many of the factors that influence adipogenesis are also involved in diverse processes in the body including lipid homeostasis and modulation of inflammatory responses. In addition, a number of proteins secreted by adipocytes play important roles in these same processes. In fact recent evidence has demonstrated that many factors secreted from adipocytes are pro-inflammatory mediators and these proteins have been termed adipocytokines or adipokines. There are currently over 50 different adipokines recognized as being secreted from adipose tissue. These adipokines are implicated in the modulation of a range of physiological responses that globally includes appetite control and energy balance. Specific metabolic processes regulated by adipose tissue include lipid metabolism, glucose homeostasis, inflammation, angiogenesis, hemostasis (regulation of blood coagulation ), and blood pressure. The major form of adipose tissue in mammals (commonly referred to as \"\"fat\"\") is white adipose tissue, WAT. Specialized adipose tissue that is primarily tasked with thermogenesis, especially in the neonate, is brown adipose tissue, BAT."

One part of a plant can send signals to other parts. Plants can sense gravity and the direction of light. A plant’s morphology and physiology are constantly tuned to its variable surroundings by complex interactions between environmental stimuli and internal signals. At the organismal level, plants and animals respond to environmental stimuli by very different means. Animals, being mobile, respond mainly by behavioral mechanisms, moving toward positive stimuli and away from negative stimuli. Rooted in one location for life, a plant generally responds to environmental cues by adjusting its pattern of growth and development. As a result, plants of the same species vary in body form much more than do animals of the same species. At the cellular level, plants and all other eukaryotes are surprisingly similar in their signaling mechanisms. Concept 39.1 Signal transduction pathways link signal reception to response All organisms, including plants, have the ability to receive specific environmental and internal signals and respond to them in ways that enhance survival and reproductive success."

Vitamins are distinct in several ways from other biologically important compounds such as protein s, carbohydrate s, and lipid s. Although these latter substances also are indispensable for proper bodily functions, almost all of them can be synthesized by animals in adequate quantities. Vitamins, on the other hand, generally cannot be synthesized in amounts sufficient to meet bodily needs and therefore must be obtained from the diet or from some synthetic source. For this reason, vitamins are called essential nutrients. Vitamins also differ from the other biological compounds in that relatively small quantities are needed to complete their functions. In general these functions are of a catalytic or regulatory nature, facilitating or controlling vital chemical reactions in the body’s cells. If a vitamin is absent from the diet or is not properly absorbed by the body, a specific deficiency disease may develop.vitamin EVitamin E in gel-cap form. © Margaret M Stewart/Shutterstock.com Vitamins are usually designated by selected letters of the alphabet, as in vitamin D or vitamin C, though they are also designated by chemical names, such as niacin and folic acid. Biochemists traditionally separate them into two groups, the water-soluble vitamins and the fat-soluble vitamins. The common and chemical names of vitamins of both groups, along with their main biological functions and deficiency symptoms, are listed in the table."

Introduction: The 'What,' 'How' and 'Why' of Optimizing Our Health through Nutrition We are in the midst of a revolution in the way we understand nutrition and health. Nutrition began as a study of what we need to survive in the most basic sense. Early research in nutrition focused on determining the minimum amount of a nutrient necessary in the diet to prevent the manifestation of an outwardly visible malfunction or obvious disease. Today, with advanced technology and the ability to see within the body -- and even within cells themselves -- we are able to follow how nutrients really function. More importantly, this new insight helps us to understand why having too little of these important dietary components can lead to low energy levels, early aging, and even disease."

Each cell runs on the chemical energy found mainly in carbohydrate molecules (food), and the majority of these molecules are produced by one process: photosynthesis. Through photosynthesis, certain organisms convert solar energy (sunlight) into chemical energy, which is then used to build carbohydrate molecules. The energy used to hold these molecules together is released when an organism breaks down food. Cells then use this energy to perform work, such as cellular respiration. The energy that is harnessed from photosynthesis enters the ecosystems of our planet continuously and is transferred from one organism to another. Therefore, directly or indirectly, the process of photosynthesis provides most of the energy required by living things on earth. Photosynthesis also results in the release of oxygen into the atmosphere. In short, to eat and breathe, humans depend almost entirely on the organisms that carry out photosynthesis.

"text": "\"Science & Mathematics Biology What is cellular respiration? And how does it keep animals healthy? xx Follow 3 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Cellular Respiration, process in which cells produce the energy they need to survive. In cellular respiration, cells use oxygen to break down the sugar glucose and store its energy in molecules of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Cellular respiration is critical for the survival of most organisms because the energy in glucose cannot be used by cells until it is stored in ATP. Cells use ATP to power virtually all of their activities—to grow, divide, replace worn out cell parts, and execute many other tasks. Cellular respiration provides the energy required for an amoeba to glide toward food, the Venus fly trap to capture its prey, or the ballet dancer to execute stunning leaps. Cellular respiration occurs within a cell constantly, day and night, and if it ceases, the cell—and ultimately the organism—dies. Two critical ingredients required for cellular respiration are glucose and oxygen. The glucose used in cellular respiration enters cells in a variety of ways."

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.

"text": "The Role Of Carbohydrates In The Body3. The Role Of Carbohydrates In The Body Five subheadings follow in this lesson subdivision, but there is actually only one basic role of carbohydrates in the human diet: to supply energy. It should always be kept in mind that carbohydrates or calories alone cannot adequately supply our energy needs, for we must have our carbohydrates in combination with other needs, such as proteins, water, vitamins, minerals, fats, etc. This means that a diet of refined sugar, refined rice, flour products and other “food fragments,” though it supplies calories, cannot satisfactorily comprise the bulk of anyone’s diet. A person on such a diet would suffer many problems, for the organism is not capable of living long or well on bare carbohydrates alone. They must be obtained in combination with the other essential food factors to be truly useful in the overall energy production and nutrition of the organism.3.1 Carbohydrates Supply Energy The body uses carbohydrates directly from the monosaccharide glucose. Glucose is in the blood and extracellular fluids (lymph) and can be made from glycogen. Glycogen is stored in the liver and muscles and in smaller amounts in the other organs and tissues of the body. Energy is derived from glucose by the splitting of the glucose molecules into smaller compounds and oxidizing these to form water, which frees quite a large amount of energy. When carbohydrates needed for the functioning of the central nervous system, the muscles and the other body systems and functions are insufficient in the diet (as during a fast or on a weight-loss diet), stored adipose tissue (fat) is broken down into glucose to make up the caloric deficit."

This lesson will explore the feeding relationships of organisms in an ecosystem, including food chains and food webs. The lesson will also investigate the different trophic levels of a food chain and give examples of species found at each level. What Are Trophic Levels in a Food Chain? Think about the food you ate today. Did you eat any plant materials? Did you eat anything that when it was alive might have eaten another organism? Organisms, including humans, are often classified by their feeding relationships. In other words, they are organized by who eats whom, and this classification system is called a food chain. A food chain is a sequence of organisms that feed on each other."

Trichomoniasis is a sexually transmitted infection (or sexually-transmitted disease, STD ). It is caused by a protozoan (a microscopic parasite), usually found in the vagina and urethral tissues. Although this condition is most often treated in women, trichomoniasis infection in men can also occur (and often has no symptoms). Trichomoniasis Causes Trichomoniasis is caused by Trichomonas vaginalis, a flagellated motile protozoan. Approximately 174 million people worldwide are infected with this parasite each year, making it the most common curable sexually transmitted infection worldwide. In the U. S., it is estimated that about 3.7 million people have the infection. Only about 30% of these people will have any symptoms. The average size of a trichomonad is 15 mm (they are not visible with the naked eye)."

Medical providers and public health practitioners today have replaced this term with more accurate and neutral terminology: sexually transmitted disease (STD) or sexually transmitted infection (STI). The term reproductive tract infection (RTI) is often used to describe infections that are sexually transmitted, as well as other common infections that may or may not be sexually transmitted (i.e. candidiasis, bacterial vaginosis). Epidemiology of STIs Sexually transmitted infections (STI's) are transmitted from person to person through vaginal, oral, or anal sex with an infected partner; and/or from a pregnant woman (if infected) to her fetus or baby during pregnancy and labor and delivery. In 2008, the CDC reported that a nationally representative study estimated that 1 in 4 teenage girls in the U. S. has an STD. The study included the most common STDs: HPV, chlamydia, herpes simplex virus, and trichomoniasis. There are approximately 15 million new cases of sexually transmitted infection each year in the United States, and 340 million worldwide. 30The majority of STI's are asymptomatic (no symptoms). Asymptomatic infections can be transmitted to sexual partners. Having certain sexually transmitted infections increases the risk of acquiring or transmitting HIV."

Trichomoniasis, for example, is caused by a protozoan organism; protozoa occupy their own kingdom, separate from plants, animals, and bacteria. Intestinal parasites are often protozoan organisms, but can also include parasitic worms (which are members of the animal kingdom). They are spread through contact with fecal matter — and as such, they can be transmitted sexually as well as nonsexually. Intestinal parasites are usually transmitted by fecal contamination of food or water, and are most common in areas with insufficient sewage treatment and untreated water in the wilderness. Some pathogens, however, have low infectious doses, making their sexual transmission more likely. What has eight flagella and can live in your intestines?

Examples include gonorrhea, genital herpes, human papillomavirus infection, HIV/AIDS, chlamydia, and syphilis. Why Is the Study of Sexually Transmitted Diseases a Priority for NIAID? STDs are an important global health priority because of their devastating impact on women and infants and their inter-relationships with HIV/AIDS. STDs and HIV are linked by biological interactions and because both infections occur in the same populations. Infection with certain STDs can increase the risk of getting and transmitting HIV as well as alter the way the disease progresses. In addition, STDs can cause long-term health problems, particularly in women and infants. Some of the health complications that arise from STDs include pelvic inflammatory disease, infertility, tubal or ectopic pregnancy, cervical cancer, and perinatal or congenital infections in infants born to infected mothers.

Some sexually transmitted infections can spread through the use of unsterilized drug needles, from mother to baby during childbirth, or breast-feeding, and blood transfusions. Sexually transmitted infections have been around for thousands of years. The genital areas are generally moist and warm environments - ideal for the growth of yeasts, viruses, and bacteria. Microorganisms that exists on the skin or mucus membranes of the male or female genital area can be transmitted, as can organisms in semen, vaginal secretions, or blood during sexual intercourse. Examples of sexually transmitted diseases include:chlamydiachancroidcrabs (pubic lice)genital herpesgenital wartshepatitis Bhuman immunodeficiency virus and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome ( HIV and AIDS)human papillomavirus (HPV)trichomoniasis (parasitic infection)molluscum contagiosumpelvic inflammatory disease (PID)syphilis, gonorrheatrichomoniasis (trich)Sexually transmitted infections are more easily passed on during unprotected sex - without using safer sex options (i.e., condoms, dams, sanitizing sex toys). Some infections can be passed on via sexual contact but are not classed as sexually transmitted infections; for instance, meningitis can be passed on via sexual contact, but usually, people become infected for other reasons, so it is not classed as an STD. The WHO (World Health Organization) estimates that, worldwide, there are more than 1 million new STDs acquired each day. People aged 15-24 acquire half of all new STDs, and 1 in 4 sexually active adolescent females has an STD, such as human papillomavirus or chlamydia. Compared with older adults, individuals aged 15-24 have a higher risk of getting STDs."

"text": "Return to Theatre Index Return to Main Page On October 4, 1996 the Ambassador Theater in St. Louis was demolished. It passed with little notice, except by those, like myself, who had wondered at it and tried to save this survivor of 70 years. I was working for the State Office of Historic Preservation at the time, but my efforts went against city hall and proved fruitless – see my article, “The Ambassador Theatre: An Endangered Species”, Missouri Preservation News, Fall, 1977. My first experience in the Ambassador was also my first in any movie theater at a time when many Movie Palaces were beginning to fall to the wrecking ball. I was a child when I stepped into its palatial “Franco-Spanish Carnival” lobby, but when I saw the silver-gilt and crystal fantasy set with colorful “jewels” and dripping with heavy teal-blue velvet drapes I knew that this place, this experience of going to the movies, was something special, one that I would never forget. The exterior and lobby of the Ambassador theatre, St. Louis, MO. The Theatre images in this section are taken from postcards andpersonal photographs in my collection. In the auditorium, Stan Kann at the “Mighty Wurlitzer” organ filled the huge enclosure with the overture to the first in the series of “Cinerama” movies. As my mother and I settled into the plush velvet seats, I asked her in a whisper if this was a castle because there was a coat of arms over the stage. She laughed and said no, but as the lights dimmed I felt as excited and special as a princess in the fairyland of that beautiful theater."

Although box turtles are superficially similar to tortoises in terrestrial habits and overall appearance, they are actually members of the American pond turtle family ( Emydidae ). The twelve taxa which are distinguished in the genus are distributed over four species. They are largely characterized by having a domed shell, which is hinged at the bottom, allowing the animal to close its shell tightly to escape predators.

[ 3] He placed in this genus amongst others Terrapene boscii (now accepted to be Kinosternon subrubrum subrubrum) and Terrapene carolina (but under the name Terrapene clausa ). Also several Asian box turtles have been formerly classified within the genus Terrapene: e.g. Terrapene bicolor (now Cuora amboinensis couro) and Terrapene culturalia (now Cuora flavomarginata ).

But the terrific \"\"tetrad\"\" of total lunar eclipses is over — we'll see just two barely-there penumbral eclipses in 2016, on March 23rd and September 16th. Any list of nature's grandest spectacles would certainly include eclipses of the Sun and Moon. Up to seven of them can take place in one year, though the last time that happened was 1982. The fewest possible is four, as will be the case in 2016. Neither of the solar eclipses in 2016 — one total and one annular — is observable from the Americas. And both lunar eclipses in 2016 will involve extreme grazes of Earth's shadow that will be challenging to notice at all. Few events in nature offer the drama and spectacle of a total solar eclipse. This one occurred over China on August 1, 2008. S&T: Dennis di Cicco Why Do Eclipses Happen?"

The phases of the April 14-15 total lunar eclipse are shown with GMT timestamps in this NASA image from a video guide. The total lunar eclipse will affect two NASA spacecraft orbiting the moon since they rely on sunlight for power.

During the time that the moon is entering into and later emerging from out of the Earth's shadow, secondary phenomena may be overlooked.

"text": "Why Eclipses Happen Prepare for the solar eclipse on August 21, 2017: get the straight story on the physical and planetary causes of total solar eclipses. A total solar eclipse is a cosmic coincidence with stunning visual effects for viewers on Earth. When the moon passes in front of the sun and blocks it completely, it casts a shadow onto our planet that plunges areas into a darkness that feels like nighttime in mid-day. What causes this extraordinary phenomenon? Several things need to occur at once to create a total solar eclipse. First, the moon needs to be exactly the right size to block the sun. Next, the sun, moon, and Earth need to line up in a straight line, or nearly so, with the moon between the sun and Earth. Finally, to see the full eclipse, you need to be standing in the correct spot on Earth. Lucky for us, our moon is the perfect size. When it passes in front of the sun, it exactly covers the sun’s central disk, while letting the corona shine out around it in a spectacular display."

"text": "Why is this weekend’s full moon (the flower moon) so unusual? When an exceptional full moon peeks out of the sky on Saturday morning, a whole host of lunar vocabulary will come with it. It’s no coincidence that the word “ moon ” looks like “ month .” They share a Germanic base — plus, the moon’s cycle resets itself on average every 29.53 days. The period of time between new moons is known as the synodic month. ( A new moon, also called a dark moon, is not visible to earthlings. It occurs when the moon’s orbit crosses exactly between the Earth and the sun. ) This month’s full moon is called the flower moon in English. Other religious and cultural traditions have different names for the flower moon. For example, in Algonquian, this full lunar phase is a called the strawberry moon."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search For other uses, see Eclipse (disambiguation) and Total Eclipse (disambiguation). Totality during the 1999 solar eclipse. Solar prominences can be seen along the limb (in red) as well as extensive coronal filaments. An eclipse is an astronomical event that occurs when an astronomical object is temporarily obscured, either by passing into the shadow of another body or by having another body pass between it and the viewer. This alignment of three celestial objects is known as a syzygy. [ 1] Apart from syzygy, the term eclipse is also used when a spacecraft reaches a position where it can observe two celestial bodies so aligned. An eclipse is the result of either an occultation (completely hidden) or a transit (partially hidden). The term eclipse is most often used to describe either a solar eclipse, when the Moon's shadow crosses the Earth's surface, or a lunar eclipse, when the Moon moves into the Earth's shadow. However, it can also refer to such events beyond the Earth–Moon system: for example, a planet moving into the shadow cast by one of its moons, a moon passing into the shadow cast by its host planet, or a moon passing into the shadow of another moon. A binary star system can also produce eclipses if the plane of the orbit of its constituent stars intersects the observer's position."

This event is a total eclipse of the Moon which will be visible from North and South America as well as Europe, Africa and Antarctica. During such an eclipse, the Moon's disk can take on a dramatically colorful appearance from bright orange to blood red to dark brown and (rarely) very dark gray. A n eclipse of the Moon can only take place at Full Moon, and only if the Moon passes through some portion of Earth's shadow. The shadow is actually composed of two cone-shaped parts, one nested inside the other. The outer shadow or penumbra is a zone where Earth blocks some (but not all) of the Sun's rays. In contrast, the inner shadow or umbra is a region where Earth blocks all direct sunlight from reaching the Moon. I f the Moon passes through only part on the umbra, a partial eclipse is seen. However, if the entire Moon passes through the umbral shadow, then a total eclipse of the Moon occurs."

All of these objects move and we can see these movements. We notice the Sun rises in the eastern sky in the morning and sets in the western sky in the evening. We observe different stars in the sky at different times of the year. When ancient people made these observations, they imagined that the sky was actually moving while the Earth stood still. In 1543,with two people one was: Nicolaus Copernicus (Figure 24.21) proposed a radically different idea: the Earth and the other planets make regular revolutions around the Sun. He also suggested that the Earth rotates once a day on its axis. Copernicus' idea slowly gained acceptance and today we base our view of motions in the solar system on his work.

In This Article References Recognizing Moral Distress Recognizing moral distress is an important step toward resolution, yet many nurses are unaware of how it may be manifested. Examples from current literature along with vignettes from the author's experience are presented to illustrate the concept. Dueling expectations. Role con flict has been characterized as a type of stress that occurs when management has conflicting expectations of an organizational position (Corley et al., 2001). For example, nurses have two masters: the organization that pays their salary and the physicians who direct their care. Nurses experience role conflict if the expectations of these two authorities are discordant. Role conflict can affect personal values."

The paper was limited to three to five pages and the final draft I turned in was short some of the better 'stuff'. I'm posting my philosophy here for other nursing students to find when they frantically Google \"\"personal nursing philosophy\"\" for their own assignments. It's not a masterpiece, but it is personal and meaningful to me. So here it is.... My Personal Nursing Philosophy Brandman University March 2012Embrace the Past... Engage the Present... Envision the Future Nursing is a practice discipline with multiple, interwoven theories sharing similar concepts, but lacking a singular defining nursing philosophy. Individual nurses develop personal philosophies to govern their own practices creating a philosophy of nursing rather than defining philosophy of nursing. Nursing philosophy can be understood as “an attitude towards life and reality that evolves from each nurses’ beliefs formed in three elements: conceptual analysis, assessment of argument, and concern with metaphysical and epistemological questions\"\" (Edwards, 1996, p. 2). The first step in identifying a personal nursing philosophy is defining nursing. Nursing as defined by the American Nurses Association is the “protection, promotion, and abilities, prevention of illness and injury, alleviation of suffering through the diagnosis and treatment of human response, and advocacy in the care of individuals, families, communities, and populations” (ANA, 2012). Understanding what nursing means to the individual nurse is a deeply personal journey."

Unfortunately, sometimes things do not go so well. Sometimes we know what we want to do, but we’re unable to execute our desired action plan.

Internalization of ideals might take place following religious conversion, or in the process of, more generally, moral conversion.

I zeroed in on a hot pink sequin jacket and immediately asked Miss Cernek, my official nixer of bad purchases, \"\"Is this wrong or right? \"\" Her answer was typically wise: \"\"It's genius. But it totally depends on what you wear it with.\"\" I bought it (hey, you can't beat $30 for a holiday party outfit--and the money goes to a good cause), and when I got it home, I sifted through my closet to suss out what would make this outfit a Do and what would make it a Don't ( with beat up jeans: yes!

"text": "The term chronic masturbation isn’t a medical or psychological diagnosis. There's no test or measure for what is considered too much masturbation. In fact, if you're worried that you are masturbating too much the first question you should ask yourself is why you are worried and how are you defining too much. There are some activities that are valued by society more than others. Sexual activity, and masturbation, in particular, are not usually thought of as being very important or valued in society. Most people want to engage in these activities but few of us see them as legitimate or valuable. Many of us think about our desires as a problem. Something to feel guilty about or ashamed of. Or at the very least, something to keep to ourselves. What Defines Chronic Masturbation?"

"text": "\"Nursing Economics Moral Distress: Recognizing it to Retain Nurses Patricia S. Pendry, MSN, RN, CCRN-CSCDisclosures Nurs Econ. 2007;25 (4):217-221. In This Article References Moral Distress Defined In his classic work on nursing ethics, Jameton (1984) defined moral distress as occurring \"\"when one knows the right thing to do, but institutional constraints make it nearly impossible to pursue the right course of action\"\" (p. 6). For nearly 2 decades, this definition was used as the theoretical basis for studies of moral distress. Recently, researchers have expanded this definition by defining moral distress as \"\"the painful psychological disequilibrium that results from recognizing the ethically appropriate action, yet not taking it, because of such obstacles as lack of time, supervisory reluctance, an inhibiting medical power structure, institution policy, or legal considerations\"\" (Corley et al., 2001, pp. 250-251). Both of these definitions fo cused on external constraints; in ternal constraints resulting from nurses' belief systems were not considered. For the purposes of this article, this definition has been extrapolated: Moral distress is the physical or emotional suffering that is experienced when constraints (internal or external) prevent one from following the course of action that one believes is right.

A regular feature of the American Journal of Critical Care, Current Controversies in Critical Care addresses the ethical and administrative issues faced by healthcare professionals working in today’s critical care environment. We welcome letters to the Editors regarding this feature and encourage the submission of scenarios for future discussion. Advocacy is commonly understood as a core component of a nurse’s professional identity. In response to questions such as what is a nurse, and what do nurses do, it is not uncommon to hear nurses describe themselves as patients’ advocates. For many practicing nurses, advocacy has come to be understood as, and in some ways equated with, attention to patients’ safety and protecting patients from harm. Although safety and protection certainly are important concerns of nurses, I want to highlight some of the problems with this view of advocacy and describe some of the difficulties that follow when nurses take up the role of advocate in a critical care setting where advocacy is seen as primarily concerned with protection. In contrast to this view of advocacy, I want to explore a stand on good practice that recognizes and engages in a more complete understanding of advocacy in a context in which agency is realized as part of a collaborative, multidisciplinary, team-oriented approach to care. Next Section Advocating for, Safeguarding, and Protecting Advocacy has become a central part of ethics in professional nursing practice. This link is evident in the literature of professional organizations such as the American Nurses Association (ANA) and the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses (AACN)."

"text": "\"Stoic Philosophy of Mind Stoicism was one of the most important and enduring philosophies to emerge from the Greek and Roman world. The Stoics are well known for their contributions to moral philosophy, and more recently they have also been recognized for their work in logic, grammar, philosophy of language, and epistemology. This article examines the Stoics' contributions to philosophy of mind. The Stoics constructed one of the most advanced and philosophically interesting theories of mind in the classical world. As in contemporary cognitive science, the Stoics rejected the idea that the mind is an incorporeal entity. Instead they argued that the mind (or soul) must be something corporeal and something that obeys the laws of physics. Moreover, they held that all mental states and acts were states of the corporeal soul. The soul (a concept broader than the modern concept of mind) was believed to be a hot, fiery breath [ pneuma] that infused the physical body. As a highly sensitive substance, pneuma pervades the body establishing a mechanism able to detect sensory information and transmit the information to the central commanding portion of the soul in the chest. The information is then processed and experienced."

An incredible number of changes occur during childhood, especially during infancy, which lasts from birth to age two. In particular, there are massive advances in physical, cognitive, and psychosocial development...all of which are key areas of study within child psychology. At one time, many believed that children were simply \"\"small adults\"\" and not vastly different from adults. Today, however, most recognize that there are great qualitative differences that make children unique. Developmental Psychologists study the physical, mental, and social changes that occur during the lifecycle. Thus, child psychologists focus on these changes that occur from birth to adolescence. Click here for a more in-depth definition of Developmental Psychology. In this section, we will not explore conception-to-birth, but will focus on birth to adolescence.

In fact, there are so many discount plans, that only very few travelers are ever paying regular fares. Special fares and air passes for foreign visitors JAL (and oneworld) and ANA each offer special fares and air passes for exclusive use by foreign visitors to Japan, which enable holders to fly anywhere within Japan for not much over 10,000 yen per flight (also referred to as \"\"sector\"\"). This is quite a competitive price on many domestic routes, especially on longer flights, such as flights from Tokyo to Kyushu, Okinawa or Hokkaido. Some of the air passes have to be purchased outside of Japan and before you leave for Japan. They can only be used by non-residents of Japan who arrive to and depart from Japan by an international flight. Some offers are not available during certain blackout periods, which are typically the New Year holidays, the spring holidays in the second half of March and the summer holidays from mid July through August. Below is some basic information about the air passes. Consult the airlines for more details: JAL Japan Explorer Pass Price 10,000 yen per domestic flight*; lower fares for flights within Hokkaido and Okinawa and for flights from/to the Tohoku Region .

"text": "Travel Asia Pacific Japan How much will it cost me to travel to Japan and stay for a week? After graduation, I plan on traveling to Japan with a friend. I was wondering what the individual cost will be.1 following 11 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: This depends a lot on how thrifty you are, on your choice of accommodation, and how much travel you are planning to do. Youth hostels range in price from $35 to $85 per night. Hotels, ryokan (Japanese inns) can be more expensive. Travel by Shinkansen (bullet train) is very expensive unless you have the 7-day JR Railpass. You have to purchase an exchange voucher for this pass at an authorized travel agency such as JTB, then exchange this pass in Japan at a Midori No Madoguchi ticket office in Japan. These are located at pretty much every trainstation and major airport. The cost for a 7-day Ordinary pass is 28,700 yen. ( about $269 US $) The pass is good for the NEX train from Narita to Tokyo, all JR subways in Tokyo, all JR buses (except the one from Shin-Osaka to Tokushima because it uses toll bridges), all Shinkansen (except the Nozomi), all local JR trains, as well as the JR ferry to Miyajima."

Understand [ edit]A cosmopolitan port city with an international flavor, hemmed in by Mt. Rokko, Kōbe is often ranked as the best place for expatriates to live in Japan. The city has a population of over 1.5 million people. History [ edit]A port in what would become Kōbe was established as a concession to western powers in 1868, during the time when Japan was opening to the western world. Nagasaki and Yokohama had already begun serving foreign ships nine years earlier. Today, a synagogue, Japan's first mosque, Japan's first Sikh temple, a Chinatown, and European architecture mark Kōbe as a place where foreigners and foreign culture first arrived in Japan. Great Hanshin Earthquake [ edit]At 5:46 AM JST on January 17, 1995, the Great Hanshin Earthquake, measuring 7.3 on the Richter Scale, struck near the city. The quake killed 6,433 people, made 300,000 people homeless and destroyed 10,000 buildings and large parts of the port facilities, and toppled the the Hanshin Expressway, an elevated freeway. It was one of the most costly natural disasters in modern history."

Booking airline award tickets is more of an art than a science. You may often want to make an award reservation before you’re even sure that you’ll be taking the trip, because it’s no fun to wait and then find out the availability you want has disappeared. Unfortunately, most airlines charge fees when you cancel and redeposit an unused award ticket, and those fees eat into the value of your points and miles. In this post, I’ll explain these award cancellation policies so you’ll know what to expect if your plans change, and offer an overview of how you can earn miles in each program.

Kingdom: Bacteria Phylum: Cyanobacteria This is the phylum of bacteria that acquire their energy through photosynthesis, and are often called the blue-green algae. Order: Nostocales Anabaena fall into this category because they have trichomes and lack endospores and exospores. Family: Nostocaceae This is the category of blue-green algae that form heterocysts and have unbranched trichomes. Genus: Anabaena The Anabaena genus is known for its intercalary heterocysts and isolated or amorphous filaments. A Strmatolite from early cyanobacteria. Here are some phylogenetic trees that show where Anabaena fits in with the bacteria, and where it fits in with its own family. Now that you know where Anabaena fits with regards to other organisms, why don't you check out where it fits in the world around us! Or, return to the main page here."

"text": "Bacteria: Life History and Ecology Bacteria grow in a wide variety of habitats and conditions. When most people think of bacteria, they think of disease-causing organisms, like the Streptococcus bacteria growing in culture in this picture, which were isolated from a man with strep throat. While pathogenic bacteria are notorious for such diseases as cholera, tuberculosis, and gonorrhea, such disease-causing species are a comparatively tiny fraction of the bacteria as a whole. Bacteria are so widespread that it is possible only to make the most general statements about their life history and ecology. They may be found on the tops of mountains, the bottom of the deepest oceans, in the guts of animals, and even in the frozen rocks and ice of Antarctica. One feature that has enabled them to spread so far, and last so long is their ability to go dormant for an extended period. Bacteria have a wide range of envronmental and nutritive requirements. Most bacteria may be placed into one of three groups based on their response to gaseous oxygen. Aerobic bacteria thrive in the presence of oxygen and require it for their continued growth and existence. Other bacteria are anaerobic, and cannot tolerate gaseous oxygen, such as those bacteria which live in deep underwater sediments, or those which cause bacterial food poisoning."

"text": "Photosynthetic organisms ¶“Sunlight plays a much larger role in our sustenance than we may expect: all the food we eat and all the fossil fuel we use is a product of photosynthesis, which is the process that converts energy in sunlight to chemical forms of energy that can be used by biological systems. Photosynthesis is carried out by many different organisms, ranging from plants to bacteria. The best known form of photosynthesis is the one carried out by higher plants and algae, as well as by cyanobacteria and their relatives, which are responsible for a major part of photosynthesis in oceans. All these organisms convert CO 2 (carbon dioxide) to organic material by reducing this gas to carbohydrates in a rather complex set of reactions. Electrons for this reduction reaction ultimately come from water, which is then converted to oxygen and protons. Energy for this process is provided by light, which is absorbed by pigments (primarily chlorophylls and carotenoids). Chlorophylls absorb blue and red light and carotenoids absorb blue-green light, but green and yellow light are not effectively absorbed by photosynthetic pigments in plants; therefore, light of these colors is either reflected by leaves or passes through the leaves. This is why plants are green”—Wim Vermaas [VERMAAS1998]. Each organism introduced in this section has different characteristics and behaviors that make interesting to analyze its genomic information [1].

"text": "\"What are algae? There is no easy definition of an algae. Algae are generally microscopic organisms, are usually thought of as simple aquatic plants which do not have roots, stems or leaves and have primitive methods of reproduction. They are carbon fixing and oxygenating organisms. However some algae display primitive animal features such as motility, while blue-green algae differ markedly from plants and all other algae, in that they have a cellular structure and function that is more common to bacteria than to the plant kingdom. Algae live in a wide range of aquatic environments and are a natural component of most aquatic ecosystems. Additionally, a great many are also terrestrial, living in soil, snow, or in association with other organisms, especially fungi (as lichens),and animals. Aquatic algae are found in both fresh and marine waters. They range in size from large kelp (metres in length) to those visible only under a microscope. Some algae have an economic importance because they are a source of carotene, glycerol, and alginates and can be converted into a food source for aquaculture."

Neilan *+ Author Affiliations School of Biotechnology and Biomolecular Science, University of New South Wales, Sydney, New South Wales 2052, Australia Next Section ABSTRACTSaxitoxins (STXs) are carbamate alkaloid neurotoxins produced by marine “red tide” dinoflagellates and several species of freshwater filamentous cyanobacteria, including Anabaena circinalis, Aphanizomenon spp., Lyngbya wollei, and Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii. A specific quantitative PCR (q PCR) method based on SYBR green chemistry was developed to quantify saxitoxin-producing Anabaena circinalis cyanobacteria, which are major bloom-forming freshwater cyanobacteria. The aim of this study was to infer the potential toxigenicity of samples by determining the copy number of a unique and unusual polyketide synthase (PKS) sequence ( sxt A) in the STX biosynthesis gene cluster identified in cyanobacteria. Our q PCR approach was applied to water samples collected from different Australian lakes, dams, and rivers. The STX concentration and cyanobacterial cell density of these blooms were also determined by high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) and microscopic cell counting, respectively. STX concentrations correlated positively with STX gene copy numbers, indicating that the latter can be used as a measure of potential toxigenicity in Anabaena circinalis and possibly other cyanobacterial blooms. The q PCR method targeting STX genes can also be employed for both monitoring and ecophysiological studies of toxic Anabaena circinalis blooms and potentially several other STX-producing cyanobacteria. Saxitoxins are a class of chemically related neurotoxins, also known as paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs) due to their association with seafood, predominantly filter-feeding shellfish."

This article provides detailed information about various types of such bacteria. You must have heard about nitrogen-fixing leguminous plants that enrich the soil where they grow. They have the unique ability to fix atmospheric nitrogen in the ground and make their own fertilizers. Actually, these plants do not pull off this feat on their own. They owe partial credit for this effort to their symbiotic relationship with nitrogen-fixing bacteria. The leguminous plants provide nutrients to the bacteria, in return for which they fix atmospheric nitrogen through anaerobic processes ( processes that work without oxygen ). Nitrogen-fixing Mechanism The primary function of these bacteria is 'Survival' and in their efforts directed towards this goal, they enter into a symbiotic relationship with leguminous plants or some survive on their own. As a part of their metabolic cycle, they fix nitrogen. An enzyme which these bacteria use is called 'Nitrogenase'."

A small piece of stromatolites encodes biological activity perhaps spanning thousands of years. In broad terms, stromatolites are fossil evidence of the prokaryotic life that remains today, as it has always been, the preponderance of biomass in the biosphere. For those that subscribe to the theory of the living earth, it is the prokaryotes that maintain the homeostasis of the earth, rendering the biosphere habitable for all other life. They maintain and recycle the atomic ingredients of which proteins, the essence of life, are made, including oxygen, nitrogen and carbon. We humans are, in simple terms, bags of water filled with proteins and prokaryotic bacteria (the bacteria in your body outnumber the cells in your body about 10 to 1). We humans have descended from organisms that adapted to living in a prokaryotic world, and we humans retain (conserved in evolutionary terms) in our Eukaraotic mitochondria the cellular machinery to power our cells that we inherited (i.e., Endosymbiosis ) from the prokaryotes of deep time on earth. Defining Stromatolites Scientists disagree on how to define stromatolites. A common definition goes something like: A lamiated rock formed by the growth of blue-green algae (i.e., cyanobacteria)\"\". This definition is, in fact, such a gross oversimplification as be scientifically useless."

General information!Anacondas Scientific classification. Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Subphylum: Vertebrata Class: Reptilia Order: Squamata Suborder: Serpentes Family: Boidae Subfamily: Boinae Genus: Eunectes The question what is the biggest snake can be confusing, the biggest as far as girth (largest being measured at 44 inches or 1,1176 m) is the Green Anaconda, on average anacondas are more then 20 ft (6.09 m) long with and average weight of 300+ pounds (136.08+ kg) many reaching lengths of 29ft ( 8.83 m) or more, with a weight of over 550 lbs ( 249.48 kg), in terms of length then and only then will the Reticulated Python exceed the anaconda, the longest python was measured at 33 ft ( 10.05 m) but even this python can't match the total mass of the anaconda. Anacondas are members of the Boidae family of reptiles and spend most of their time in rivers and swamps of the Amazon Rainforest in South America which makes them excellent swimmers and are capable of holding their breath for around 15 minutes, female anacondas are generally 3 to 4 times larger then the males and bear their young live and are called \"\"Neonates\"\", the number of young varies, some have produced 100 babies, but the average is between 20 to 40 babies which are about 24 inches (0.6 m) long, they stay with the mother for about and hour then leave to be on their own. Diet consist of (depending on the size of the anaconda, the larger the snake the larger the prey) large/small rodents like capybaras, also pigs, caiman, jaguars, deer, dogs, birds even fish and is acquired by ambushing with a quick strike, 100 rear-facing sharp teeth hold the prey while suffocating it with constriction, (the anaconda is so powerful it generally crushes it's prey) then swallowing it whole and by using it's muscles in a rhythmic fashion it works the food toward its digestive area, the digestion of the anaconda is very slow thereby allowing it to survive without food for well over a year. Anacondas have around a 10 to 12 year year life span in the wild, in captivity some have reached 20 + years, the biggest threat to it is man and loss of their habitat.2 people found this useful Was this answer useful?

The green anaconda, with a girth of nearly 30 cm (12 in.) and a weight of 227 kg (550 lb. ), is the heaviest of all snakes. The green anaconda is native to South America, making its home in swamps, marshes and streams. Their enormous size makes it much easier for green anacondas to swim in the water than to slither slowly on land. Their eyes and nostrils are on the top of their head allowing them to see and breathe while most of their body is under water. Most of their time is spent in the water hunting."

"text": "\"Society & Culture Languages The meaning of the word \"\"Anaconda\"\"? I keep reading that the word \"\"Anaconda\"\" was derived from Tamil and Sinhalese to mean something along the lines of \"\"elephant\"\" and \"\"killer\"\". These languages are from Sri Lanka which have elephants. South America doesn't have elephants so why would english speakers call them... show more Follow 7 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: While unusual, it is not unheard of for a word from a distant language to be used to name something. Brazil was a Portuguese colony. During the 16th and 17th centuries, the Portuguese also controlled Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). Many, many Sinhalese and Tamils worked for the Portuguese and it's nearly certain that many of these workers from Ceylon ended up visiting or settling in Brazil. They could easily have given the snake this name and then the Portuguese colonists picked it up from them. It's also quite possible that the Sinhalese and Tamil etymologies (both languages are spoken in Ceylon) are BOTH true, one reinforcing the other in Brazil, so that the ultimate word sounds like a word from both languages. Why didn't a word from one of the native languages stick?"

Their eyes and nasal openings are on top of their heads, allowing them to lay in wait for prey while remaining nearly completely submerged."

( Robert Clark/Institute)How Titanoboa, the 40-Foot-Long Snake, Was Found In Colombia, the fossil of a gargantuan snake has stunned scientists, forcing them to rethink the nature of prehistoric life By Guy Gugliotta Smithsonian Magazine | Subscribe April 2012In the lowland tropics of northern Colombia, 60 miles from the Caribbean coast, Cerrejón is an empty, forbidding, seemingly endless horizon of dusty outback, stripped of vegetation and crisscrossed with dirt roads that lead to enormous pits 15 miles in circumference. It is one of the world’s largest coal operations, covering an area larger than Washington, D. C. and employing some 10,000 workers. The multinational corporation that runs the mine, Carbones del Cerrejón Limited, extracted 31.5 million tons of coal last year alone. Cerrejón also happens to be one of the world’s richest, most important fossil deposits, providing scientists with a unique snapshot of the geological moment when the dinosaurs had just disappeared and a new environment was emerging. “ Cerrejón is the best, and probably the only, window on a complete ancient tropical ecosystem anywhere in the world,” said Carlos Jaramillo, a paleontologist at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute. “ The plants, the animals, everything. We have it all, and you can’t find it anywhere else in the tropics. ”Fifty-eight million years ago, a few million years after the fall of the dinosaurs, Cerrejón was an immense, swampy jungle where everything was hotter, wetter and bigger than it is today. The trees had wider leaves, indicating greater precipitation—more than 150 inches of rain per year, compared with 80 inches for the Amazon now."

His dramatic account would color popular imagination for years, even though it was based on a manipulated spectacle in which fishermen blocked off a group of the fish and starved them beforehand. Still, piranhas are important scavengers and predators in their native rivers, and they often resort to cannibalism if food gets scarce. It's true that local fishermen occasionally have scars from close encounters with them. It's unknown how many species of piranhas exist, with estimates ranging from 30 to 60. — Brian Clark Howard Related: Megafishes of the World Photograph by Martin Shields, Alamy Electric Eel Electra the electric eel ( Electrophorus electricus) demonstrates her shocking power at Ford Motor Company's \"\"Cycle of Production\"\" exhibit at the 1939 New York World's Fair. Despite their name, electric eels are actually a type of knifefish and are more closely related to catfish than they are to true eels. These unusual fish inhabit waterways in the Amazon and Orinoco basins of South America, where they hunt prey and defend themselves by producing powerful bursts of electricity."

Full Answer Anacondas prefer shallow water with thick vegetation cover, and while they are good swimmers, they prefer to lie submerged in water. They also can be found sunbathing near river banks and near cave entrances. Their large size prohibits them from moving well on land, however, so anacondas spend most of their time in the water. Their eyes and nasal passages are located on the top of their heads, allowing them to stay submerged for hours at time waiting for prey to come close."

It is the heaviest and one of the longest known extant snake species. The term anaconda often refers to this species, though the term could also apply to other members of the genus Eunectes. The green anaconda's scientific name is derived from the Greek εὐνήκτης, meaning \"\"good swimmer\"\", and the Latin murinus, meaning \"\"of mice\"\", for being thought to prey on mice.

"text": "\"Save The largest living snakes in the world, measured either by length or by weight, are various members of the boidae and pythonidae families. They include anacondas, pythons, and boa constrictors, which are all non-venomous constrictors. The longest venomous snake, with a length up to 18.5–18.8 ft (5.6–5.7 m), is the king cobra, [1] and the heaviest venomous snake is likely to be the Gaboon viper (which also has the longest fangs and delivers the largest amount of venom) or possibly the Eastern diamondback rattlesnake – all three of which reach maximum weights in the range of 6–20 kilograms (13–44 lb). There are ten living snakes, listed below according to their maximum known or reported mass, that have a maximum mass that may reach or exceed 50 pounds (23 kg). Pending the acceptance of its taxonomic status, the Bolivian anaconda ( Eunectes beniensis) may also merit inclusion, and the northern and southern variations of African rock python could be considered separately. In terms of length, in addition to those listed here, there are two other species that may possibly reach a length of 20 feet (6.1 m) or more – the Oenpelli python ( Morelia oenpelliensis) and the olive python ( Liasis olivaceus) – however, the information available about those species is rather limited. [ 2] The Oenpelli python, in particular, has been called the rarest python in the world. [ 3] [4] [5]It is important to be aware that there is considerable variation in the maximum reported size of these species, and most measurements are not truly verifiable, so the sizes listed should not be considered definitive. In general, the reported lengths are likely to be somewhat overestimated. [ 6] In spite of what has been, for many years, a standing offer of a large financial reward (initially $1,000 offered by U. S. President Theodore Roosevelt in the early 1900s, [7] later raised to $5,000, then $15,000 in 1978 and $50,000 in 1980) for a live, healthy snake over 30 ft (9.1 m) long by the New York Zoological Society (later renamed as the Wildlife Conservation Society), no attempt to claim the reward has ever been made.

Behavior Boas are nonvenomous constrictors found in tropical Central and South America. Like their anaconda cousins, they are excellent swimmers, but prefer to stay on dry land, living primarily in hollow logs and abandoned mammal burrows. Significantly smaller than anacondas, boas can grow up to 13 feet long and weigh more than 100 pounds. Their jaws are lined with small, hooked teeth for grabbing and holding prey while they wrap their muscular bodies around their victim, squeezing until it suffocates.

What species of snake is the world’s largest and how big do they get? With the recent death of the snake generally accepted to be the largest in captivity ( Fluffy, a reticulated python formerly residing at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium in Ohio), it may be an appropriate time to discuss the issue. In short, the title for world’s largest snake is shared between two species. The longest snake is the Reticulated Python, Python reticulatus, which resides in southeastern Asia. The snake that recently died in Columbus was a whopping 24 feet (7.3 meters) long but the species is known to get even larger. Several individuals have been documented between 25 and 30 feet, but things get a little murky and questionable once we break the 30-foot barrier. The Guinness Book of World Records recognizes a 32-foot (~10 meters) long individual that was captured in Indonesia in the beginning of the 20 th century. So, it’s likely the world’s longest snake is probably somewhere between 29 and 34 feet long."

This snake can adapt to many ground types. It lives in the savanna, thick rainforests, croplands, rocky slopes, swamps, bush formations and meadows. It prefers a dry environment e.g. aggregations of desert bushes. It often uses termite mounds and hollow tree trunks as shelter.

Contents [ show]Description Monstrous anacondas featured in film series came from a fictional species of anaconda native of Amazon and Borneo. In spite of them shared many things in common with their real life counterparts that native in Amazon only, these anacondas grew onto twice the size of their common real-life counterparts' and even possesses strengths and abilities beyond that of typical anacondas in real life. In real life, some anacondas does grew on the same size with their film series counterparts, but is very rare. Their biology obviously far superior and advanced to super predator level, if not exaggerated compared with their real life counterparts given that estimated time these anacondas need to devour human-sized preys was around less than 5 seconds (if constricting their prey not counts)."

"text": "\"By Ella Davies20 April 2016Humans can be tall or short, narrow or wide, but we don't tend to talk about how long our bodies are. That might explain why extreme length often catches our eye. And in any discussion of long animals, there are obvious leaders: snakes, the longest animals on land. In April 2016, construction workers building a motorway in Penang, Malaysia claimed to have discovered a reticulated python ( Python reticulatus) that was 26ft 3in (8m) long. In my experience, most claims of maximal length and mass in snakes are over-exaggerated However, that figure was reduced to 24ft 7in (7.5m) by officials. Worse still, the snake reportedly died after it was captured so we will never know what size it could have grown to. According to Guinness World Records, the longest reticulated python in captivity is Medusa, who lives in Kansas City, US. She is 25ft (7.67m). But there have been claims the animals can reach almost double this length. Indonesia's Fragrant Flower was famously said to measure 47ft 6in (14.5m) – until tape measures embarrassingly confirmed it to be closer to 23ft (7m). \"\""

Some of the islands that they are found on are Borneo, Sumatra, Java and the Philippines archipelago. Reticulated pythons inhabit the humid, moist, tropical rainforests of southeast Asia.

"text": "\"Pets Reptiles Whats bigger? boas, anacondas, phytons, or constrictors? Follow 18 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Which is the Biggest Snake? If you look in the records there is a lot of controversy over which snake holds the world's record for massive size. The dimensions that have earned the anaconda the title of king is its total body mass or its weight (the sheer physical bulk of it). The other snake that competes with the anaconda is the Asiatic Reticulated Python (Python reticulatus). The python holds the world's record for length of a snake, with the longest ever measured at 33 feet. Even though the longest python is longer than the record-holding anaconda, the girth of the anaconda is far bigger. Anacondas in the jungles of South America can grow as big around as a grown man! i dont think the facts on this video r right but the picture r crazy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eo FRamg Gu...lizzylou · 9 years ago2 1 Comment Asker's rating The worlds longest snake was a reticulated python that was 32 feet 9 1/2 inches long."

Edit Answer by Rudy V Confidence votes 14.6KMy vocations included, tree trimmer, steeple-jack and tuck-pointer, tool and die maker, and lastly an electrician from which I retired Anacondas have around a 10 to 12 year year life span in the wild, in captivity some have reached 20 + years, the biggest threat to it is man and loss of their habitat. General information!Anacondas Scientific classification. Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Subphylum: Vertebrata Class: Reptilia Order: Squamata Suborder: Serpentes Family: Boidae Subfamily: Boinae Genus: Eunectes The question what is the biggest snake can be confusing, the biggest as far as girth (largest being measured at 44 inches or 1,1176 m) is the Green Anaconda, on average anacondas are more then 20 ft (6.09 m) long with and average weight of 300+ pounds (136.08+ kg) many reaching lengths of 29ft ( 8.83 m) or more, with a weight of over 550 lbs ( 249.48 kg), in terms of length then and only then will the Reticulated Python exceed the anaconda, the longest python was measured at 33 ft ( 10.05 m) but even this python can't match the total mass of the anaconda. Anacondas are members of the Boidae family of reptiles and spend most of their time in rivers and swamps of the Amazon Rainforest in South America which makes them excellent swimmers and are capable of holding their breath for around 15 minutes, female anacondas are generally 3 to 4 times larger then the males and bear their young live and are called \"\"Neonates\"\", the number of young varies, some have produced 100 babies, but the average is between 20 to 40 babies which are about 24 inches (0.6 m) long, they stay with the mother for about and hour then leave to be on their own. Diet consist of (depending on the size of the anaconda, the larger the snake the larger the prey) large/small rodents like capybaras, also pigs, caiman, jaguars, deer, dogs, birds even fish and is acquired by ambushing with a quick strike, 100 rear-facing sharp teeth hold the prey while suffocating it with constriction, (the anaconda is so powerful it generally crushes it's prey) then swallowing it whole and by using it's muscles in a rhythmic fashion it works the food toward its digestive area, the digestion of the anaconda is very slow thereby allowing it to survive without food for well over a year. Anacondas have around a 10 to 12 year year life span in the wild, in captivity some have reached 20 + years, the biggest threat to it is man and loss of their habitat.2 people found this useful Was this answer useful?

The toxic Bootlace Worm has been reported to reach lengths of up to 180 feet. We have always wondered about nature’s extremes. The various aspects of the living world around us has always intrigued us to elect and select the species exhibiting the greatest diversion from “normality”. Thus, we have also debated on the length of animals to choose the winner: the longest living animal on our planet. A number of contestants from the animal world compete for this title. However, the lack of conclusive records makes it extremely difficult to select any one single species as the “longest animal in the world”. Pythons and Anacondas Whenever we speak of length, we tend to divide our attention between animals on land and those residing in the water. In the case of animals on land, our focus immediately shifts to snakes as the longest territorial creatures."

Grimke wrote pamphlets and made speeches against slavery during a time when few others were so vocal. The second voice in this story is that of Sarah’s fictional slave, Hetty “Handful.” She gives us the perspective of life in the slave quarters. For the next 35 years, we follow these women as their lives come together and pull apart — but they always remain friends. Sarah is the daughter of a plantation owner in South Carolina. She is horrified when she is given a slave on her 11th birthday. Handful, the young slave girl, is a rebellious soul, but keeps it in check knowing her job is to serve Sarah. Sarah and Handful are close in age and often spend time together as friends so Sarah is unsure what to do with her. After Sarah is unsuccessful in trying to free Handful, her mother realizes Sarah doesn’t want a slave."

"text": "Bow is an unincorporated community in Skagit County, Washington. It is located near the towns of Bay View, Edison, Burlington, and Mount Vernon. Bow is included in the Mount Vernon - Anacortes, Washington Metropolitan Statistical Area. Bow overlooks Samish Bay. The 2 ft ( 610 mm) narrow gauge [1] Bow Hill Railroad, complete with a working steam locomotive, is located in the Bow area. It can be found on the private property of Diz Schimke, who allows the public to ride the train during Christmastime in exchange for donations to the Alger food bank. [ 2]Contents [ hide ]1 History2 Geography and location3 References4 External links History [ edit]Bow was originally known as Brownsville, after William J. Brown, who homesteaded the townsite in 1869. [ 3] The advent of the railroad resulted in a population boom and the need for a post office. Apparently inspired by the growth brought by the railroad, Brown suggested the new name of Bow, after the large railway station in London, England, which in turn was named for the bow or poplar tree. Although this is the most common belief, there are some who believe it was named after homesteader James T. Bow."

Anacortians love music. Over the years, this passion has fostered many a musician, like Gaelan Sylvia, Karl Blau and the band The Lonely Forest. One could even say this enthusiasm began in Anacortes’s early days when the town welcomed the fishing fleet with summer Plaza Dances. What does this mean for an island getaway to Anacortes? You can experience song and sound year-round. For some venues, there is a cover charge, and sometimes it’s free. Let’s start with the place that’s all about the sound of silence―the Anacortes Public Library. Acoustic Music is every third Tuesday, from 6:30 to 7 p.m. and third Sunday from 2:00 to 2:30 p.m., and musicians play the baby grand piano or their own instrument."

"text": "Anacortes is the largest city on Fidalgo Island, a portal to the potently beautiful San Juan Islands and quite worthy as an arts-oriented destination in its own right. Fidalgo Island is accessible from the mainland via bridges to the east ( Fidalgo is the easternmost of the islands) and is also connected via bridge to Whidbey Island (which in turn has ferry links to both Seattle and the Olympic Peninsula). Much of the San Juan archipelago is inaccessible save by boat, but even those without their own set of sails can easily explore the region courtesy of the Washington State Ferry terminal located at one edge of Anacortes. Don't make the mistake of treating Anacortes as a jump-off point and nothing but, however. Name an outdoor activity and Anacortes has it on hand, whether you're after watersports, from power boating and kayaking to sailing or scuba diving (some hearty folk even waterski on the Pacific when it's particularly calm), wildlife watching for birds and whales or simply seeking scenic hiking trails. Beachcombing alongside the clear waters around Deception Pass, several miles south of Anacortes, is a lovely way to spend an afternoon, and with plenty of charters on hand, a day or two of sport fishing is within easy casting distance. Golf, mountain biking and sunset-watching are all popular activities here, and anywhere on the island is worth a walk. Mount Erie, Bowman's Bay, the bird-filled Heron Rookery and South Harbor Park are just a few of the green and natural spots you can visit in Anacortes. But beyond watersports and shoreline activities, ferry rides and beach strolls, Anacortes has plenty of cultural attractions and quiet festivals. Visit the Saturday Farmer's Market or the Quilt Show, or check the schedules of Brodniak Hall - you won't want to miss the Skagit Symphony."

"text": "\"Taking Care of Business: The Randy Previs Files A four-part Island Times investigative series By LIAM MORIARTYPart Four: More of the same …A few more lawsuits, the Anacortes mess and a curious land deal or two …After the storm …By June of 1991, the storm that had enveloped developer Randy Previs' personal and business dealings had pretty well blown over. Previs' latest Chapter 7 bankruptcy from 1990 had just been discharged. He and his wife Katie still had possession not only of their home on Olympic View Drive in Edmonds, but their Orcas Island property, as well. In fact, records seem to show that 1991 through 1993 were litigation-free years for Previs. By early 1994, however, he was back in court over unpaid loans. On March 4 of that year, Sea First Bank filed against A&P Machinery and PEC Investments (both of them Previs corporations). According to court records, Previs signed two promissory notes to the bank; one for $265,000 on Sept. 27, 1990 (just six weeks before his Chapter 7 filing) and another for $75,000 on July 30, 1991 (two months after that Chapter 7 proceeding had discharged over $1.2 million in bad debts). Previs signed the notes as president of both A&P and PEC. The bank's suit against Previs asserted that the companies defaulted on both notes after paying approximately $50,000. On Feb. 26, 1993, Previs signed a \"\"forbearance agreement,\"\" in which he acknowledged owing Sea First $297,000, including interest."

By the way, an \"\"acronym\"\" is not just any abbreviation. It's a word that is short for other words, usually using their initial letters. An abbreviation formed of letters that don't form a word is sometimes known as an \"\"initialism.\"\" Our Webster's cites \"\"snafu\"\" and \"\"radar\"\" as examples of acronyms. ( Good examples of anacronyms, too!) But \"\"snafu\"\" and \"\" radar \"\" seem like acronyms that have passed into general usage (notice the all lower case). Most of today's acronyms are still all upper case; only a few will ever become generic. An example of an acronym that probably won't become lower-cased is WINS (Windows Internet Naming Service).

TTRFor the use of acronyms on Wikipedia, see Wikipedia: Acronyms. An acronym is a word or name formed as an abbreviation from the initial components in a phrase or a word, usually individual letters (as in NATO or laser) and sometimes syllables (as in Benelux ). There are no universal standards of the multiple names for such abbreviations and of their orthographic styling. In English and most other languages, such abbreviations historically had limited use, but they became much more common in the 20th century. Acronyms are a type of word formation process, and they are viewed as a subtype of blending.

Attestations for Akronym in German are known from 1921, and for acronym in English from 1940. [ 1]Although the word acronym is often used to refer to any abbreviation formed from initial letters, [2] some dictionaries and usage commentators define acronym to mean an abbreviation that is pronounced as a word, [18] in contrast to an initialism (or alphabetism )—an abbreviation formed from a string of initials (and possibly pronounced as individual letters). [ 19] Some dictionaries include additional senses equating acronym with initialism. ["

[ 1] [2]Monoclonal antibodies ( m Ab or mo Ab) are antibodies that are made by identical immune cells that are all clones of a unique parent cell. Monoclonal antibodies can have monovalent affinity, in that they bind to the same epitope (the part of an antigen that is recognized by the antibody). In contrast, polyclonal antibodies bind to multiple epitopes and are usually made by several different plasma cell (antibody secreting immune cell) lineages. Bispecific monoclonal antibodies can also be engineered, by increasing the therapeutic targets of one single monoclonal antibody to two epitopes. Given almost any substance, it is possible to produce monoclonal antibodies that specifically bind to that substance; they can then serve to detect or purify that substance. This has become an important tool in biochemistry, molecular biology, and medicine. When used as medications, non-proprietary drug names end in -mab (see \"\" Nomenclature of monoclonal antibodies \"\") and many immunotherapy specialists use the word mab anacronymically."

"text": "\"FITNESS GLOSSARY > Anaerobic Exercise Anaerobic Exercise< Back to Glossary Anaerobic Exercise Anaerobic means \"\"without air\"\", and refers to the energy exchange in living tissue that is independent of oxygen. Anaerobic exercise is brief, high intensity activity where anaerobic metabolism is taking place in muscles. During extended periods of exercise aerobic metabolism supplies the bulk of the energy and the exercise is termed aerobic exercise. Examples of anaerobic exercise include weight lifting, sprinting, and jumping; any exercise that consists of short exertion, high-intensity movement, is an anaerobic exercise. Anaerobic exercise is typically used by athletes in non-endurance sports to build power and by body builders to build muscle mass. Muscles that are trained under anaerobic conditions develop biologically differently giving them greater performance in short duration-high intensity activities. Aerobic exercise, on the other hand, includes lower intensity activities performed for longer periods of time. Activities like walking, running, swimming, and cycling require a great deal of oxygen to generate the energy needed for prolonged exercise. There are two types of anaerobic energy system, the ATP-PC energy system, which uses creatine phosphate as the main energy source, and the lactic-acid (or anaerobic glycolysis) system that uses glucose (or glycogen) in the absence of oxygen. The latter is an inefficient use of glucose and produces by-products that are thought to be detrimental to muscle function."

Fat Oxidation During Exercise4 Steps of Aerobic Respiration Your ability to work and live depends on your metabolism, or the ability of your cells to convert proteins, carbohydrates and fats into energy. Whereas aerobic metabolism requires oxygen, anaerobic metabolism takes place without oxygen. These dual processes are not isolated but typically work in concurrence. When you describe certain exercises as aerobic or anaerobic, you’re referring to the type of metabolism that predominates. How Metabolism Works The energy currency in your body is a compound called adenosine triphosphate, or ATP. This compound stores chemical energy from nutrients, such as your breakfast toast, in the bonds between the phosphates making up its structure."

"text": "THE SCIENCE BEHIND AEROBIC FITNESSVO2 MAX AND AEROBIC TRAININGThe science of aerobic fitness is not difficult to understand, and it can help both trainers and exercisers make workout decisions. Muscles involved in exercise produce a significant amount of energy by combining foodstuffs with oxygen. As the oxygen needs of an individual’s exercising muscles increase, the lungs supply more oxygen to the blood. The heart, in turn, pumps more oxygenated blood to the working muscles. If a steady supply of oxygen is not produced to meet the energy demands of an activity, then an energy imbalance develops, blood lactate (LA) levels rise, blood p H levels decrease and fatigue occurs. An individual’s ability to engage in sustained high levels of physical activity without significant fatigue is determined by the body’s ability to deliver oxygenated blood to the muscles, and the ability of the muscles to extract the oxygen from the blood and utilize it for the production of energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). A fundamental knowledge of how the body works during different types of exercise is necessary for understanding both the basic concepts of energy production and the physiological adjustments made by the body to meet the energy requirements of exercising skeletal muscles. Basic concepts of energy and its sources The energy that is required for the normal functioning (muscle contraction, conduction of nervous impulses, hormone synthesis, etc.) of all living cells in the human body is produced by chemical reactions. These chemical reactions are either aerobic (occurring in the presence of oxygen) or anaerobic (without oxygen)."

"text": "What Is the Difference Between Aerobic & Anaerobic Exercise?by STEVEN LOWIS Sept. 11, 2017You may be aware that you should be taking time out of your busy schedule to exercise every week, but what you may not be aware of is how much of that time should be spent performing aerobic or anaerobic exercise. Knowing what type of physical activity is either aerobic or anaerobic can make all the difference to both your long-term health and how much time you should be spending on an elliptical machine or lifting weights. Always consult your doctor before beginning any new exercise regimen. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Aerobic Exercise Aerobic exercise is any activity that uses your arms and legs to move your body. Your muscles are used in continuous (and generally easy-to-perform) rhythmic or repetitive motions, increasing your heart rate and respiration while building your physical endurance. Aerobic means “with oxygen” -- aerobic exercise uses oxygen to burn fat and carbohydrates, producing energy. Aerobic Exercise Groups The American College of Sports Medicine splits aerobic exercise into three groups, defined by varying demands of physical activity. The first group is defined by easy physical activities such as walking, jogging, cycling and climbing stairs. The second group includes moderate to intense exercise such as dance classes, hiking, swimming and bench stepping. The third group covers intense and strenuous exercise involved in skilled sports such as basketball, tennis or volleyball."

"text": "\"Difference Between Aerobic and anaerobic• Categorized under Nature | Difference Between Aerobic and anaerobic Aerobic vs anaerobic Technically speaking, the term ‘aerobic’ is an adjective that pertains to ‘requiring air’, particularly oxygen. Its counterpart, ‘anaerobic’ means ‘without air’ or not needing oxygen. Â Evidently, these two terms are exact opposites. Their differences become more apparent as they are used in reference to cellular respiration, exercise and types of organisms. In plants and animals, aerobic respiration is the chief process by which they utilize energy in the form of ATP or adenosine triphosphate. The key player in the generation of ATP would be oxygen, which also acts as the terminal electron acceptor. Aerobic metabolism is about 19 times more efficient than anaerobic metabolism. Conversely, anaerobic respiration is undergone by some microorganisms. Instead of oxygen, an inorganic acceptor such as sulfur is used as the final electron acceptor. Moreover, aerobic organisms or aerobes are those that can live and grow in an environment where there is oxygen."

Anaerobic exercise can help people who are already fit achieve their peak level of fitness. Aerobic Respiration During aerobic respiration, your body uses oxygen for energy. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, moderate aerobic exercise increases your heart rate to 50 to 70 percent of your maximum heart rate, which is roughly 220 minus your age. It also causes you to break a sweat and deepens your breathing, but not so much that you can't carry a conversation. Brisk walking, mowing the lawn and biking on flat terrain are some examples of moderate aerobic exercise. Intense aerobic exercise increases your heart rate to 70 to 85 percent of your maximum heart rate, causes you to break and sweat and deepens your breathing too much to converse.

Anaerobic describes a condition of cellular respiration that is undergone in the absence of oxygen. Organisms in anoxic environments generally do not undergo this type of respiration, since they have evolved completely different methods for such. Some organisms are obligate anaerobes, meaning they can not use oxygen. Some are obligate aerobes, meaning they must have oxygen to survive."

"text": "ATP – Energy's Ultimate Form!Every single thing you do depends on your bodies ability to produce ATP. Learn all about this fascinating molecule of energy by reading this page. Whether it's during a 42km marathon run or one explosive movement like a tennis serve, every single movement in the human body is powered by the breakdown of one chemical compound - adenosine triphosphate (ATP) . ATP is essentially the energy currency of the body. It is the breakdown of ATP that releases energy which the body’s tissues such as muscle can use. An ATP molecule consists of one adenosine and three (tri) phosphate groups, as shown in the adjacent diagram. The breakdown of ATP to release the stored chemical energy within its high energy phosphate bonds is known as ATP hydrolysis (hydrolysis = breakdown with water). ATP hydrolysis is triggered by the arrival of an action potential (electrical impulse) at the sarcomere (the contractile unit in human muscle) from the motor neuron (neuron/nerve that tells the muscle to contract). It results in the last phosphate group splitting away from the ATP molecule and releasing energy for muscle contraction (and all other bodilly functions) as shown in diagram 2. ATP hydrolysis is assisted by an enzyme known as ATPase."

As an example of a within-subjects design, let’s say that we are interested in the effect of different types of exercise on memory. We decide to use two treatments, aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise. In the aerobic condition we will have participants run in place for five minutes, after which they will take a memory test. In the anaerobic condition we will have them lift weights for five minutes, after which they will take a different memory test of equivalent difficulty. Since we are using a within-subjects design we have all participants begin by running in place and taking the test, after which we have the same group of people lift weights and then take the test. We compare the memory test scores in order to answer the question as to what type of exercise aids memory the most."

"text": "Home > Medicine > Anatomy & Physiology > ATPATP what?the energy systems simply explained It is important to understand the energy systems when setting training programs. Here they are explained in simple terms. The food we eat, in the form of carbohydrates, fats and proteins, is used as fuel for reactions in the body that make us 'alive'. To utilize these fuels for muscle action, the body converts them to a common 'energy currency', called adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP). There are essentially two mechanisms for producing ATP, the aerobic and anaerobic pathways. ' Aerobic' means literally with oxygen, while 'anaerobic' means without oxygen. For low intensity activities, for example sleeping, working and jogging, and more intense however sustained activities such as marathon running, the ATP required for muscle contraction is produced primarily by the aerobic pathway. The rate that ATP is supplied by the aerobic processes is relatively slow, and therefore the rate of work output is also slow. The by-products of aerobic metabolism are carbon dioxide, which is exhaled by normal respiration, and water. As long as there is a continual supply of fuel (eg."

There are 3 energy’s sources; they are Carbohydrates, which are the main energy source, Fats that are the secondary energy source and rarely protein. We need to eat food in order to supply our body with fuel. The food we eat then gets broken down into ATP, when the high-energy bonds are broken; this provides us with the energy to make muscular contractions. Energy from food we eat has a lot of other functions as well, the energy also helps us to circulate blood around our body, digest food and repair and replace damaged tissue.

A focused training program can increase your VO2max by 15 to 30% over a 3 month period and by up to 50% over 2 years. But the converse is true as well. There is a drop off in performance and metabolic adaptations within a few weeks of stopping a regular training regimen although certain physical changes (such as the number of muscle capillaries and skeletal/cardiac muscle fiber size) occur more slowly (see detraining below). Metabolic adaptations facilitate aerobic energy production (from glucose and glycogen) as well as improving lactic acid removal from the muscle cell. These changes lead to performance at a higher level % VO2max for longer periods of time. In addition an increase in lipid metabolism at any level of exertion results in extra energy Calories from fat to supplement those from glycogen and glucose metabolism for any specified level of activity (%VO2max). The net result of these changes? An increase in your maximal performance - as well as endurance (the ability to maintain that high level of performance for a longer time interval). Training also improves the physical structure of the muscle which can then better withstand the stresses of prolonged exertion."

"text": "\"By Jessica Smith, Fitness Consultant Introduction While most people know that aerobic exercise is good for the heart and that resistance training helps build lean body mass, most people don't fully understand how these different types of exercise elicit very different responses within our bodies. A basic understanding of how our body uses energy during different forms of exercise is critical for designing an effective exercise program. We will focus on energy systems—i.e., how the body utilizes fat, carbohydrate, and protein to produce energy—and how these energy systems are relied upon during different forms of exercise. This article will give you a better understanding of how your body converts the food you eat into usable energy and how targeting specific energy systems will help you achieve your personal health and fitness goals. Energy Systems Review In general, there are three basic energy systems: (1) the phosphagen system (also referred to as the immediate energy system), (2) the glycolytic energy system (also referred to as the nonoxidative or anaerobic system), and (3) mitochondrial respiration (also referred to as the oxidative or aerobic system). Regardless of what energy system is used, the end result is the production of adenosine triphosphate (or ATP). ATP is extracted from the food we eat (fat, carbohydrate, and protein) and is required for the biochemical reactions involved in any muscle contraction. The intensity and duration of the activity dictates which foodstuffs are broken down as well as which energy system predominates. It is important to keep in mind, however, that no energy system acts alone."

By Exercise.com Staff Share 9 Tweet Pin +19The workout plan you choose to construct should incorporate both aerobic and anaerobic exercises. Whether to do cardio before or after weight training is still unconfirmed by the experts but professional opinion points to doing cardio before weight training. You should target a regular workout routine with daily exercise if possible. Ideally, if you can work out five to seven days a week, you can do aerobic and anaerobic exercises on alternating days. For example, strength training (anaerobic exercises) can be done on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays and cardio exercises (aerobic) can be done on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. If you need to condense your workouts and do both cardio and weight training on the same day, then it may be a good idea to start with the cardio exercises before beginning the strength training part of your workout. The Advantages of Doing both Cardio and Weight Training Some people only do cardio exercises and others only do weight training. However, it is most advantageous for your overall health to perform both aerobic and anaerobic exercise. People who do not want to do weight training may be afraid that it will make their muscles look too bulky or they may be intimidated by the equipment."

Anaerobic exercise is short, fast, high-intensity exercise that doesn’t require the body to utilize oxygen as its energy source. “Anaerobic exercise uses energy that’s readily available in your muscles,” says Paige Jones, ACSM CES, lead exercise physiologist at Piedmont Atlanta Fitness Center. “ Because the body isn’t relying on oxygen, these strong, powerful movements can only be sustained for 10 to 15 seconds. ”Good examples of anaerobic exercise include: High intensity interval training Heavy weight lifting Calisthenics like jump squats, box jumps, or other plyometrics“When working out, proper exercise intensity is a must for the activity to be considered anaerobic,” says Jones. The difference between anaerobic and aerobic exercise Anaerobic and aerobic exercise use different energy systems of the body. While anaerobic exercise uses energy from muscles, aerobic exercise uses the energy stored in your body from carbs, proteins, and fats in combination with the oxygen we breathe to make energy readily available to the muscles. Aerobic activities can be sustained for long periods of time depending on your exercise intensity. “There is a threshold where we can cross over from aerobic to anaerobic exercise and that is based on your intensity,” says Jones. “ It’s called the anaerobic threshold or lactate threshold."

Aerobic exercise, such as jogging, depends on oxygen to produce energy, while anaerobic exercise can be performed in the absence of oxygen -- picture a biceps curl. Both types of exercise require energy but use different routes to get it. Metabolism 101Metabolism is the total of all energy-releasing and energy-requiring reactions that occur in the body. The foods you eat, whether they be fat, carbohydrates or protein, contain molecules that are broken down in the body to produce and store a high-energy compound known as ATP.

This can cause a number of syndromes determined by the quantity and nature of the aspirated material, the frequency of aspiration, and the host factors that predispose the patient to aspiration and modify the response. [ 1]There are four types of aspiration syndromes. Aspiration of gastric acid causes a chemical pneumonitis which has also been called Mendelson syndrome. [ 1] Aspiration of bacteria from oral and pharyngeal areas causes aspiration pneumonia. Aspiration of oil (eg, mineral oil or vegetable oil) causes exogenous lipoid pneumonia, an unusual form of pneumonia. Aspiration of a foreign body may cause an acute respiratory emergency and, in some cases, may predispose the patient to bacterial pneumonia. The pathophysiology, clinical presentation, treatment, and complications of each of these entities are different. [ 2]This article concentrates on chemical pneumonitis and aspiration pneumonia.

"text": "\"I N TRODUCTIONThe appropriate selection of e mpiric antibiotic therapy for positive blood cultures is a complex and difficult decision. Bacteria are only partially identified on Gram stain and speciation and susceptibility results will take an additional 24-48 hours after a culture is reported as positive. While patients with positive blood cultures may be bacteremic signifying a true infection, there is a subset of patients with positive blood cultures that are due to contamination and therefore does not indicate a true infection. Because of the high morbidity and mortality associated with bacteremia, prompt evaluation and appropriate empiric antibiotic treatment are of paramount importance ( 3 ). Once an organism has been fully identified, the antibiotic selection can be modified. The field of PCR-based detection of organism is rapidly becoming a helpful tool in the identification and diagnosis of blood-stream infections, especially those caused by Gram-positive cocci ( 25, 28, 33 ). Until molecular techniques for detection of bacteria in blood cultures are more readily available and easier to implement ( 25, 31 ), clinicians will have to continue to rely on the Gram stain as the preliminary source of data for making empiric therapeutic decisions. The Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) and other organizations have issued recommendations for the treatment of bacteremia in the context of catheter-related infections that include both empirical and specific organism-based treatment protocols. However, no guidelines exist regarding the initial selection of antibiotics based on the preliminary results of the Gram stain. This chapter attempts to provide general recommendations for such a clinical situation."

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."

[ 1] This article deals with human pathogenic bacteria. Although most bacteria are harmless or often beneficial, some are pathogenic, with the number of species estimated as fewer than 100 that are seen to cause infectious diseases in humans. [ 2] By contrast, several thousand species exist in the human digestive system. One of the bacterial diseases with the highest disease burden is tuberculosis, caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which kills about 2 million people a year, mostly in sub-Saharan Africa. Pathogenic bacteria contribute to other globally important diseases, such as pneumonia, which can be caused by bacteria such as Streptococcus and Pseudomonas, and foodborne illnesses, which can be caused by bacteria such as Shigella, Campylobacter, and Salmonella. Pathogenic bacteria also cause infections such as tetanus, typhoid fever, diphtheria, syphilis, and leprosy. Pathogenic bacteria are also the cause of high infant mortality rates in developing countries.

"text": "What Causes Bad Breath What causes bad breath and where it originates in your body97% of bad breath is caused by foul smelling gasses which are emitted from anaerobic bacteria (bacteria that thrive in oxygen deprived environments) as a by-product from the act of digesting proteins. These proteins are found in food particles, dead cells, blood, and mucus. The majority of the foul smelling gasses produced by bacteria are volatile sulfur compounds (VSC), however some of the gasses that cause bad breath are not sulfur derived such as acetone, ammonia, dimethyl amine and trimethylamine. In this article we will call, volatile sulfur compounds and the non-sulfuric compounds that cause bad breath volatile organic compounds (VOC). VOC's are the gases in breath that give it an unpleasant odor. There are several types of volatile organic compounds and each one has a distinct smell to it, that is why you may have noticed that bad breath from different people doesn't always smell alike. There are over 600 types of bacteria found in the average mouth, some are these bacteria are beneficial and do not produce VOC's. A person who has chronic halitosis has an unhealthy imbalance in their oral flora, meaning that the bad breath causing bacteria have taken over and are producing VOC's at a high rate. What causes an unhealthy oral flora? The factors that cause an unhealthy imbalance of oral flora of too much bad breath causing anaerobic bacteria are simple."

In This Article References Abstract and Introduction The diagnosis of anaerobic infections can be difficult, but it may be expedited by the recognition of certain clinical signs. Predisposing conditions and bacteriologic hints should alert the physician, who may apply diagnostic procedures to ascertain the nature of the pathogens and the extent of the infection. Almost all anaerobic infections originate from the patient's own microflora. Poor blood supply and tissue necrosis lower the oxidation-reduction potential and favor the growth of anaerobic bacteria. Any condition that lowers the blood supply to an affected area of the body can predispose to anaerobic infection. Therefore, trauma, foreign bodies, malignancy, surgery, edema, shock, colitis, and vascular disease may serve as predisposing factors. The source of bacteria involved in most anaerobic infections is the normal, indigenous flora. Anaerobic infections can themselves provide clues to the presence of an underlying medical problem."

Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is an infection in the vagina caused by bacteria. The vagina naturally has “good” bacteria called lactobacilli and a few “bad” bacteria called anaerobes. Normally, there’s a careful balance between lactobacilli and anaerobes. When that balance is disrupted, however, anaerobes can increase in number and cause BV. BV is the most common vaginal infection in women between ages 15 and 44. It’s also one of the most common infections in women who are pregnant, affecting approximately 1 million pregnant women each year. BV is typically a mild infection and is easily treatable with medication. When left untreated, however, the infection can increase your risk for sexually transmitted infections and complications during pregnancy. Symptoms What Are the Symptoms of Bacterial Vaginosis?"

CONSUMERS: Click here for the Consumer Version Actinomycosis is a chronic localized or hematogenous anaerobic infection caused by Actinomyces israelii and other species of Actinomyces. Findings are a local abscess with multiple draining sinuses, a TB-like pneumonitis, and low-grade septicemia. Diagnosis is by the typical appearance plus laboratory identification. Treatment is with a long course of antibiotics and surgery. ( See also Overview of Anaerobic Bacteria . ) The causative organisms, Actinomyces sp (most commonly A. israelii ), are often present commensally on the gums, tonsils, and teeth. However, many, if not most, infections are polymicrobial, with other bacteria (oral anaerobes, staphylococci, streptococci, Aggregatibacter [previously Actinobacillus] actinomycetemcomitans, Enterobacteriaceae) frequently cultured from lesions.

Crystal violet, the primary stain of the Gram stain procedure, is readily retained and stabilized within this matrix, causing gram-positive prokaryotes to appear purple under a brightfield microscope after Gram staining. For many years, the retention of Gram stain was one of the main criteria used to classify prokaryotes, even though some prokaryotes did not readily stain with either the primary or secondary stains used in the Gram stain procedure. Advances in nucleic acid biochemistry have revealed additional characteristics that can be used to classify gram-positive prokaryotes, namely the guanine to cytosine ratios (G+C) in DNA and the composition of 16S r RNA subunits. Microbiologists currently recognize two distinct groups of gram-positive, or weakly staining gram-positive, prokaryotes. The class Actinobacteria comprises the high G+C gram-positive bacteria, which have more than 50% guanine and cytosine nucleotides in their DNA. The class Bacilli comprises low G+C gram-positive bacteria, which have less than 50% of guanine and cytosine nucleotides in their DNA. Actinobacteria: High G+C Gram-Positive Bacteria The name Actinobacteria comes from the Greek words for rays and small rod, but Actinobacteria are very diverse. Their microscopic appearance can range from thin filamentous branching rods to coccobacilli. Some Actinobacteria are very large and complex, whereas others are among the smallest independently living organisms."

Loss of gram-positive appearance occurs with direct stains of clinical material or in cultures after prolonged incubation or in species with terminal spores. Clostridium perfringens is the most important of the species and accounts for 20-40% of all isolates. Speciation is based mostly on cellular morphology, spores location (central, terminal or sub terminal), biochemical reactions, gas liquid chromatography for fermentation products; and the demonstration of production of lecithinase (or alpha toxin by C. perfringens ) and lipase (by Clostridium sporogenes , Clostridium novyi and Clostridium botulinum ( 14 ). Epidemiology Organisms of the genus Clostridium are important members of the humans’ anaerobic gastrointestinal and cervical-vaginal flora. Clostridia are ubiquitous and are found in the soil, marine sediment, decaying vegetation and intestinal tract of humans, other vertebrate and insects. Human infections with clostridia can result from endogenous or exogenous infection ( 5 ).

Activities that require short bursts of effort, such as sprinting or jumping, require the body to produce large amounts of energy over a short period, whereas activities like marathon running or endurance cycling require continued energy production over a longer period and at a slower rate. It is the energy systems of your body that facilitate these processes. Energy is required in order to make the muscle fibres contract. This energy is obtained from the oxidation of foods in the diet, particularly carbohydrate and fat. When these substances are burned in the muscle cells, ATP is formed, which is rich in energy. When ATP is broken down, it gives energy for muscle contraction. It is the only molecule that can supply the energy used in the contraction of muscle fibres and can be made in three ways: the creatine phosphate system which is also called Phosphocreatine, the lactic acid energy system and the aerobic energy system. Creatine phosphate energy system ATP and creatine phosphate (or phosphocreatine, or PCr) make up the ATP-PCr system."

The cells use glucose and oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, water and energy. Anaerobic Respiration is the process of breaking down glucose without using oxygen, but rather catalysts. It produces a by product of energy, carbon dioxide and lactic acid. The term aerobic is most commonly heard when referring to exercises but not many people know that the exercise is named ‘aerobic exercises’ because of the type of respiration process used when the exercise is performed. The term goes deeper and refers to aerobic and anaerobic respiration. Respiration is the process through which energy is released by breaking down glucose in the body. The energy produced is used by the body for various purposes including working the muscles, keeping body temperature constant, allowing chemical reactions to take place, sending messages throughout the body, etc. There are two types of respiration that happen within all living things: aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration. Aerobic respiration is the process of breaking down glucose using oxygen."

"text": "\"Supply of energy for muscle contraction Adenosine Triphosphate ( ATP) is the immediate source of (chemical) energy for muscle contraction. Very little ATP is stored in muscle fibres (= ' muscle cells '), only enough to power muscle contractions for a few seconds. The ATP in muscles must be constantly replenished as it is used for various processes. The basic equation to describe the release of energy from ATP for use to power muscle contractions is: In words: Adenosine Triphosphate Adenosine diphosphate + inorganic Phosphate + Energy Meanings of symbols used in the equations below: ATPADPPCPCPKC- adenosine triphosphate- adenosine diphosphate- inorganic phosphate- creatine phosphate- creatine phosphokinase- creatine Also note that the ways in which the ATP is replaced can be described in two ways: Aerobic - when oxygen is present and participates in the process, or Anaerobic - when oxygen is not involved In symbols (short form): ATP ADP + P + Energywhere the symbols have the meanings indicated on the right. The process described in the above equation consumes ATP (the ATP is hydrolysed to ADP). Therefore a continuous supply of ATP is needed. ATP is replenished within muscle fibres in three ways:from creatine phosphate (anaerobic)by glycolysis (anaerobic), andby cellular respiration (aerobic respiration), whose initial stage is as for glycolysis, then continues via another pathway that includes oxygen and generates much more ATP. These 3 sources for ATP production in muscle fibres are explained below.1. Creatine phosphate This (creatine phosphate reaction) source can typically release enough energy for muscle contraction for up to about 15 seconds, e.g. to run for a short time / distance. This process of releasing ATP and hence energy, does not require oxygen so can be described as anaerobic."

"text": "Background In basic terms, lactic acid is the normal endpoint of the anaerobic breakdown of glucose in the tissues. The lactate exits the cells and is transported to the liver, where it is oxidized back to pyruvate and ultimately converted to glucose via the Cori cycle. In the setting of decreased tissue oxygenation, lactic acid is produced as the anaerobic cycle is utilized for energy production. With a persistent oxygen debt and overwhelming of the body's buffering abilities (whether from chronic dysfunction or excessive production), lactic acidosis ensues. [ 1, 2] (See Etiology. ) Lactic acid exists in 2 optical isomeric forms, L-lactate and D-lactate. L-lactate is the most commonly measured level, as it is the only form produced in human metabolism. Its excess represents increased anaerobic metabolism due to tissue hypoperfusion. ( See Workup. ) D-lactate is a byproduct of bacterial metabolism and may accumulate in patients with short-gut syndrome or in those with a history of gastric bypass or small-bowel resection. ["

Key Takeaways Key Points Anaerobic respiration is a type of respiration where oxygen is not used; instead, organic or inorganic molecules are used as final electron acceptors. Fermentation includes processes that use an organic molecule to regenerate NAD + from NADH. Types of fermentation include lactic acid fermentation and alcohol fermentation, in which ethanol is produced. All forms of fermentation except lactic acid fermentation produce gas, which plays a role in the laboratory identification of bacteria. Some types of prokaryotes are facultatively anaerobic, which means that they can switch between aerobic respiration and fermentation, depending on the availability of oxygen.

"text": "\"CYCLING PERFORMANCE TIPSLast updated:11/2/2015EXERCISE PHYSIOLOGYENERGY PRODUCTION IN THE CELL Energy to power muscle contractions is released when oxygen combines with carbohydrates, fats, and proteins in the cell to produce Adenosine Triphosphate or ATP. These are termed oxidation reactions (literally \"\"a combination with oxygen\"\") and are only a few of the many reactions (metabolism) within the cell that maintain cell viability. The amount of energy produced in oxidation reactions is limited by either the amount of oxygen available to the cell for oxidation, or limited fuel (carbohydrates, fats, and protein) to be oxidized. The foods we eat provide these three energy containing compounds: carbohydrates, fats, and protein. Carbohydrates are the primary energy source for short, maximum performance events (sprints at or near 100% VO2 max). Both fats and carbohydrates can serve as an energy source for the cell in endurance events (generally performed at less than 50% VO2 max.) Proteins are used to maintain and repair body tissues, and are only rarely used as an energy source to power muscle activity (almost always when severe Calorie restrictions are in effect such as with starvation or malnutrition). The cardiovascular system delivers the oxygen necessary for oxidation. Oxygen is extracted by the lungs from the air we breathe and then transported via the circulatory system (bound to hemoglobin) to the cells where it will be utilized. One of the end products of energy production, carbon dioxide, is transported from the cell back to the lungs by the circulating blood and then leaves the body in expired air."

Disruptions in the normal production of mitochondrial energy can contribute to a wide range of metabolic disturbances and symptoms, including fatigue, immune system dysfunction, dementia, depression, behavioral disturbances, attention deficiency, muscle weakness and pain, angina, heart disease, diabetes, skin rashes, and hair loss. These symptoms of metabolic impairment are also present in persons suffering from acquired diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), and in those with inherited mitochondrial diseases, such as mitochondrial myopathy. As these conditions share a common link in mechanisms of metabolic energy production, they may also benefit from nutritional strategies that optimize energy production and metabolic pathways. The Krebs’ Cycle All cells must produce energy to survive. Hans A. Krebs first elucidated the process of cells converting food into energy, the Citric Acid Cycle, in 1937. Krebs proposed a specific metabolic pathway within the cells to account for the oxidation of the basic components of food – carbohydrates, protein and fats – w for energy. The Krebs’ cycle takes place inside the mitochondria or ‘power plant’ of cells and provides energy required for the organism to function. Mitochondria are found in all cells in the human body, with the exception of mature red blood cells. The primary function of these tiny organelles (each cell contains between 500 and 2,000 mitochondria) is to convert energy found in nutrient molecules and store it in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)."

During high-intensity exercise, muscles expend energy so rapidly that they outrun the circulatory system's ability to provide them with oxygen. As they rely more on anaerobic metabolism, they produce lactic acid, which can accumulate in the bloodstream. Glycolysis The first stage of carbohydrate metabolism is glycolysis.

To allow you to keep working out, ATP stores must be replenished quickly. Muscles utilize both anaerobic and aerobic metabolism to produce ATP, but during fast-paced, strenuous exercise, anaerobic metabolism predominates. ATPYour cells store energy in the form of ATP. When muscles contract, they break down ATP in a reaction that provides energy. However, muscle cells only store enough ATP to fuel a few seconds of maximal contraction. To keep working, they must replenish their ATP supply. They can do this for a short period of time by breaking down another high-energy compound called creatine phosphate. Because stores of creatine phosphate are also limited, this energy system, called the phosphagen system, can only sustain maximal muscle output for about 10 seconds."

The overall reaction occurs in a series of biochemical steps, most of which are redox reactions themselves. Although cellular respiration is technically a combustion reaction, it clearly does not resemble one when it occurs in a living cell because of the slow release of energy from the series of reactions.

"text": "What Are the Differences Between Aerobic and Anaerobic Respiration?by MICHELLE KERNS Aug. 17, 2013Aerobic and anaerobic respiration are types of cellular respiration, the process by which living cells use up the free electrons produced during normal cellular metabolism to produce ATP, or adenosine triphosphate, the chemical compound used by cells for energy. Aerobic and anaerobic respiration differ in their requirement of oxygen and the amount of energy they produce, as well as which organisms they are utilized most often in and why. Video of the Day Oxygen Aerobic respiration can only occur in the presence of oxygen, while anaerobic respiration doesn't require or utilize oxygen in its energy production. In aerobic respiration, glucose molecules are passed through a chemical reaction chain that produces ATP, carbon dioxide and water and ends with oxygen accepting the free electrons that have been generated. In contrast, anaerobic respiration is cellular respiration that occurs using other molecules as the terminal electron acceptor since oxygen isn't present. Energy Production Both aerobic and anaerobic respiration use electron-transport chain-reaction pathways in energy production. However, aerobic respiration produces much more energy, or ATP molecules, than anaerobic respiration. For every molecule of glucose that is metabolized in the presence of oxygen by aerobic respiration, 38 ATP molecules are produced. By contrast, anaerobic respiration produces only two ATP molecules by dividing one glucose molecule into two pyruvic acid molecules in a process known as glycolysis. Respiration By-products The only chemical by-products produced by aerobic respiration -- carbon dioxide and water -- are simple for the human body to deal with."

Anaerobic Respiration 2. Aerobic Respiration All living organisms require energy to carry out life processes. This energy comes from food. However, processes carried out in cells cannot use the energy locked in stored food, fats, etc., directly. ADVERTISEMENTS: Cellular processes get usable energy from a process called respiration. Respiration commonly involves the use of oxygen to break down carbohydrates and other organic molecules, giving usable energy, carbon dioxide and water in the process. All organisms breathe—a process in which they take in oxygen and give off carbon dioxide. This is called external respiration."

Follow 6 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Cellular respiration is in three stages as follows: GLYCOLYSIS Takes place in the cytoplasm of the cell and is common to both aerobic and anaerobic respiration. glycolysis means literally that glucose is split and the 6 carbon glucose molecule is broken down to 2 X 3carbon molecules of Pyruvic acid. This produces a net gain of 2 ATP molecules. If oxygen is absent (anaerobic) in animal cells, such as muscle, 3C Pyruvic acid is converted to lactic acid. In plant cells, such as yeast, pyruvic acid is converted to 2C Ethanol + CO2 (fermentation) In both of the above only 2 ATP molecules are produced per glucose molecule respired. If oxygen is present (aerobic), pyruvic acid enters the mitochondrion to the fluid matrix where Kreb's cycle stages occur. During Kreb's cycle Citric acid is initially formed and is then broken down in a series of enzyme controlled rections releasing CO2 (waste product) and hydrogen. Hydrogen is picked up by a hydrogen carrier molecule called NAD and transported to the hydrogen carrier sytem (Cytochrome sytem) on the cristae of the mitochondrion for the final stage of respiration. Cytochrome system."

Light household activities or sitting down to watch TV requires a steady supply of ATP. When you transition from daily activities to exercise or when you have to carry laundry up several flights of stairs, your body needs a rapid burst of ATP. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Aerobic or Anaerobic Your cellular respiration or cellular metabolism can be aerobic or anaerobic. These are processes in which energy is converted from the food you eat into energy molecules that the cells of your body can use. Aerobic respiration occurs in the presence of oxygen, while anaerobic metabolism occurs in the absence of oxygen. The type of respiration you use depends on the intensity and duration of your exercise. The 90-Second Barrier Anaerobic respiration takes place at the onset of exercise for up to 90 seconds. Repeated bouts of short and intense exercise, such as sprinting, increases the rate of anaerobic respiration. If exercise continues beyond 90 seconds, the cells rely on aerobic respiration to make energy, increasing the rate of aerobic respiration."

Aerobic respiration and photosynthesis may be opposites in many ways, but there are some striking similarities. In a way, they are equal and opposite. They both have electron transport chains that help in making a chemiosmotic gradient of protons. These gradients are the driving forces in the phosphorylation of ADP to ATP at the ATP synthase. Both pathways also require an input of energy (light for photosynthesis and the stored energy in the macromolecule for aerobic respiration).

Fermentation includes processes that use an organic molecule to regenerate NAD + from NADH. Types of fermentation include lactic acid fermentation and alcohol fermentation, in which ethanol is produced. All forms of fermentation except lactic acid fermentation produce gas, which plays a role in the laboratory identification of bacteria. Some types of prokaryotes are facultatively anaerobic, which means that they can switch between aerobic respiration and fermentation, depending on the availability of oxygen.

"text": "Difference Between Aerobic and Anaerobic Respiration Cellular respiration is a special process where cells produce energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). There are two types of cellular respiration, namely aerobic and anaerobic, which the cells can use to produce energy, depending on the availability of oxygen. The literal meaning between aerobic and anaerobic lies in that the former process is carried out with oxygen while the latter without oxygen. Read on to learn more differences between these two kinds of respiration. Difference between Aerobic and Anaerobic Respiration1. Oxygen The presence of oxygen in the cells determines which type of cellular respiration will work, and in this case, aerobic respiration uses oxygen to produce energy in the form of ATP, with water and carbon dioxide as by-products. If oxygen is absent, the cells still produce energy, this time using anaerobic respiration. During aerobic respiration, oxygen (O 2) reacts with sugar or glucose (C 6 H 12 O 6 ), producing carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), water (H 2 O), and energy (ATP). Thus, the chemical equation: C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 → 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O + 2900 KJ (ATP)During anaerobic respiration, when there is not enough oxygen, cells break down glucose into lactic acid (C 3 H 6 O 3) and energy (ATP). This process releases less energy than aerobic respiration."

Very little ATP is stored in muscle fibres (= ' muscle cells '), only enough to power muscle contractions for a few seconds. The ATP in muscles must be constantly replenished as it is used for various processes. The basic equation to describe the release of energy from ATP for use to power muscle contractions is: In words: Adenosine Triphosphate Adenosine diphosphate + inorganic Phosphate + Energy Meanings of symbols used in the equations below: ATPADPPCPCPKC- adenosine triphosphate- adenosine diphosphate- inorganic phosphate- creatine phosphate- creatine phosphokinase- creatine Also note that the ways in which the ATP is replaced can be described in two ways: Aerobic - when oxygen is present and participates in the process, or Anaerobic - when oxygen is not involved In symbols (short form): ATP ADP + P + Energywhere the symbols have the meanings indicated on the right. The process described in the above equation consumes ATP (the ATP is hydrolysed to ADP). Therefore a continuous supply of ATP is needed. ATP is replenished within muscle fibres in three ways:from creatine phosphate (anaerobic)by glycolysis (anaerobic), andby cellular respiration (aerobic respiration), whose initial stage is as for glycolysis, then continues via another pathway that includes oxygen and generates much more ATP. These 3 sources for ATP production in muscle fibres are explained below.1. Creatine phosphate This (creatine phosphate reaction) source can typically release enough energy for muscle contraction for up to about 15 seconds, e.g. to run for a short time / distance. This process of releasing ATP and hence energy, does not require oxygen so can be described as anaerobic."

"text": "What Is Anaerobic Respiration in Humans?by LESLEY GRAYBEAL Oct. 14, 2017All cells of the human body employ biochemical reactions known as cellular respiration to produce the energy they need to function and stay alive. The sugar glucose serves as the primary fuel for human cellular respiration. Cells can break down glucose to generate energy using oxygen-dependent aerobic respiration or anaerobic respiration, which does not require oxygen. While aerobic respiration generates energy more efficiently, human muscle cells can utilize anaerobic respiration when they lack sufficient oxygen or require a quick burst of energy. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Role in Exercise Anaerobic respiration in humans occurs primarily in muscle cells during high-intensity exercise. This might occur if you're pushing your limits during an aerobic activity, like spinning or a cardio workout, and the oxygen supply to your muscles is insufficient to maintain aerobic-only respiration. Anaerobic respiration also occurs with activities that require short, intense bursts of muscle power, such as sprinting or power lifting. All muscles contain two types of muscle fibers called fast-twitch and slow-twitch fibers. The proportions vary in different muscles. Slow-twitch fibers are geared toward sustained activity and normally rely primarily on aerobic respiration, although they can employ anaerobic respiration if necessary."

Follow Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: I really try my best maybe it will help u Introduction: Cellular Respiration, process in which cells produce the energy they need to survive. In cellular respiration, cells use oxygen to break down the sugar glucose and store its energy in molecules of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Cellular respiration is critical for the survival of most organisms because the energy in glucose cannot be used by cells until it is stored in ATP. Cells use ATP to power virtually all of their activities—to grow, divide, replace worn out cell parts, and execute many other tasks. Cellular respiration provides the energy required for an amoeba to glide toward food, the Venus fly trap to capture its prey, or the ballet dancer to execute stunning leaps. Cellular respiration occurs within a cell constantly, day and night, and if it ceases, the cell—and ultimately the organism—dies. Two critical ingredients required for cellular respiration are glucose and oxygen. The glucose used in cellular respiration enters cells in a variety of ways. Plants, algae, and certain bacteria make their own glucose through photosynthesis, the process by which plants use light to convert carbon dioxide and water into sugar."

"text": "Home »Biology What Are the Two Processes That Produce ATP? By Eri Luxton; Updated April 24, 2017Living organisms require adenosine triphosphate, also called ATP and known as the energy molecule, to function. Cells produce ATP using cellular respiration processes, which can be divided into those that require oxygen and those that do not. Types According to Ohio State University, two processes living organisms use to produce ATP are aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration. Anaerobic respiration has two types in humans, glycolysis and the phosphagen system. Identification Aerobic cellular respiration uses glycolysis to start the Krebs cycle, which generates a high yield of ATP for every glucose molecule used. Anaerobic respiration produces a lower yield of ATP in the absence of oxygen. When the body needs energy more quickly than it can absorb oxygen, such as during a sprint, cells use anaerobic respiration to produce ATP quickly. Expert Insight Two types of anaerobic cellular respiration take place during exercise in humans: the phosphagen system and glycolysis. The phosphagen system uses creatine phosphate, according to Becky Bass at Sonoma State University, and produces energy primarily for bursts of activity under 30 seconds."

Read the rest of this article to learn more about the exercise energy systems that keep us moving. Adenosine Triphosphate ( ATP) - The Energy Source for Muscle Contraction Before discussing the various systems by which your body can provide energy to your muscles, we first need to define what muscle \"\"energy\"\" actually is. We know that your muscle cells need an energy source to be able to contract during exercise. At the highest level, the energy source for muscle contractions is the food you eat. A complex chemical process within your cells, called cellular respiration, ultimately converts the energy stored in the foods you eat into a form that is optimized for use at the cellular level of your muscles. Once food energy has been converted by cellular respiration it exists at the cellular level in the form of a molecule called adenosine triphosphate ( ATP ). The composition of an ATP molecule can be inferred from its name. It is composed of three (or \"\"tri\"\") phosphate groups attached to an adenine (or \"\"adenosine\"\") nucleotide. The energy that is stored within an ATP molecule is released for your muscles to use when the bond between the second and third phosphate groups is broken."

The answer lies in an understanding of the role of the respiratory gases CO 2 and O 2. Each organism “breathes” that is exchanges those respiratory gases with its environment. For terrestrial animals the exchange occurs between some body organ (lungs-humans; skin-earthworms) and the atmosphere. For some aquatic animals the exchange occurs between an aquatic environment and the body surface. For example, all parts of a jellyfish’s exposed body takes in O 2 and releases CO 2 . For other aquatic animals (e.g. bony fish such as bass) specialized body surfaces called gills are the sites of gas exchange. Gills with their greater efficiency in exchanging respiratory gases are required in order to meet the metabolic needs of the fish whereas in jellyfish no specialized respiratory organ is needed to meet the needs of the lowly jellyfish. As you learn the chemistry of cellular respiration, keep in mind these questions: “Why do we need O 2 or what happens to the O 2 once it enters your body?”"

Respiration is one of the key ways a cell releases chemical energy to fuel cellular activity. Cellular respiration is considered an exothermic redox reaction which releases heat. The overall reaction occurs in a series of biochemical steps, most of which are redox reactions themselves. Although cellular respiration is technically a combustion reaction, it clearly does not resemble one when it occurs in a living cell because of the slow release of energy from the series of reactions.

This suggests that all life forms on Earth evolved and diverged from a common ancient prokaryote. The ancient Earth atmosphere is believed to have initially been oxygen-poor (subsequently enriched by the action of green plants). Thus, anaerobic glycolysis is an ancient metabolic pathway. In addition to shared common metabolic pathways, different organisms exhibit uniquely different metabolic pathways Classification based on Carbon requirements: Autotrophs: are able to utilize carbon dioxide as sole source of carbon for metabolism Heterotrophs: require an organic form of carbon (i.e. produced by some other living system) such as glucose for their metabolism Classification based on Energy source: Phototrophs: are photosynthetic organisms that use light as a source of energy Chemotrophs: use organic compounds (e.g. glucose) or oxidizable inorganic substances (e.g. elemental sulfur, Fe 2+, or NH 4+ ).

electrons that trap the sun's energy pass the energy to high energy carriers such as ATP, where it is stored in chemical bonds Bio Ch 3 Define carbon fixing reactions (also known as light independent reactions or the Calvin-Benson cycle) the second stage of photosynthesis in which the stage of photosynthesis in which the energy trapped and converted during the energy trapped an converted during the light dependent reactions is used to combine carbon molecules into sugars Bio Ch 3 What universal laws govern how the cells of living things gather and use energy? Energy flowing from the sun is trapped via photosynthesis in the chemical bonds of sugar molecules. A hummingbird sips sugar concentrated in flower nectar, and the bird's cells break down the sugar molecules in the presence of oxygen, releasing stored chemical energy; this process is called cellular respiration. Energy transformations in cells are inefficient, and energy is lost as heat w/ every step; thus it takes many pounds of sugary nectar to make and maintain a few ounces of hummingbird tissue. Throughout the universe, energy can be transformed from one state to another, but the conversion is always inefficient and heat is produced Bio Ch 3 What are the energy routes and carriers in living things? In chemical reactions, chemical bonds break and reform and atoms become rearranged into new molecules. The starting substances are reactants; the new substances are products. Some reactions release energy and are spontaneous; some ownt proceed unless they absorb additional energy. The power for energy absorbing reactions in the cell comes from energy releasing reactions, and these two kinds are linked in chains of reactions called metabolic pathways. ATP is the most common energy carrying molecule in the cell."

Inorganic compounds include sulfate (SO 42- ), nitrate (NO 3– ), and ferric iron (Fe 3+ ). Organic compounds include DMSO. These molecules have a lower reduction potential than oxygen. Therefore, less energy is formed per molecule of glucose in anaerobic versus aerobic conditions. The reduction of certain inorganic compounds by anaerobic microbes is often ecologically significant.

To allow you to keep working out, ATP stores must be replenished quickly. Muscles utilize both anaerobic and aerobic metabolism to produce ATP, but during fast-paced, strenuous exercise, anaerobic metabolism predominates. ATPYour cells store energy in the form of ATP. When muscles contract, they break down ATP in a reaction that provides energy. However, muscle cells only store enough ATP to fuel a few seconds of maximal contraction. To keep working, they must replenish their ATP supply. They can do this for a short period of time by breaking down another high-energy compound called creatine phosphate. Because stores of creatine phosphate are also limited, this energy system, called the phosphagen system, can only sustain maximal muscle output for about 10 seconds."

Also, Photosytem II produces ATP, and it is more often that Photosystem I, which produces ATP, but no NADPH1 following 2 answers Answers Best Answer: The energy that is used by organisms comes from food. This energy is not created by the organism producing the food nor is the energy destroyed when the food energy is used in the body of an organism such as a human (energy cannot be created nor destroyed). In the following chapters you will learn that the energy used by all organisms comes from the sun (which is a portion of the energy released by the Big Bang when the universe originated about 20 billion years ago). The relatively small amount of energy that happens to strike earth is absorbed by plants, algae and cyanobacteria and transformed into energy stored in the chemical bonds of glucose during photosynthesis. Glucose is stored as starch the most important food molecule of man. When digestion occurs, the starch polymer is broken down into glucose, which is absorbed by the circulatory system and carried to the cells where it enters cellular respiration. During the steps of cellular respiration, the chemical energy of glucose is once again transformed into the chemical energy of ATP (adenosine triphosphate)."

"text": "3 Energy Systems in the Bodyby THELMA GOMEZ Aug. 14, 2017The human body uses energy from food to fuel movement and essential body functions, but the body cells don’t get energy directly from food. After food is digested, the carbohydrates, protein and fat break down into simple compounds -- glucose, amino acids and fatty acids -- which are absorbed into the blood and transported to various cells throughout the body. Within these cells, and from these energy sources, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is formed to provide fuel. The body uses 3 different systems to supply cells with the necessary ATP to fuel energy needs. Most of the body’s activities use a continuum of all three energy systems, working together to ensure a constant supply of energy. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load ATP-PC System The body needs a continuous supply of ATP for energy -- whether the energy is needed for lifting weights, walking, thinking or even texting. It’s also the unit of energy that fuels metabolism, or the biochemical reactions that support and maintain life. For short and intense movement lasting less than 10 seconds, the body mainly uses the ATP-PC, or creatine phosphate system. This system is anaerobic, which means it does not use oxygen. The ATP-PC system utilizes the relatively small amount of ATP already stored in the muscle for this immediate energy source."

Very little ATP is stored in muscle fibres (= ' muscle cells '), only enough to power muscle contractions for a few seconds. The ATP in muscles must be constantly replenished as it is used for various processes. The basic equation to describe the release of energy from ATP for use to power muscle contractions is: In words: Adenosine Triphosphate Adenosine diphosphate + inorganic Phosphate + Energy Meanings of symbols used in the equations below: ATPADPPCPCPKC- adenosine triphosphate- adenosine diphosphate- inorganic phosphate- creatine phosphate- creatine phosphokinase- creatine Also note that the ways in which the ATP is replaced can be described in two ways: Aerobic - when oxygen is present and participates in the process, or Anaerobic - when oxygen is not involved In symbols (short form): ATP ADP + P + Energywhere the symbols have the meanings indicated on the right.

While Sports Scientists are largely in agreement that lactate behaves more like an athletes friend than foe, recent research has now begun to question one of the basic tenets of muscular fatigue increased acidity or lactic acidosis. This article explores some of the current understanding about how lactate and lactic acid functions in the human body, particularly during exercise. It examines the compounds roles in fatigue and energy metabolism and as a limiting factor in performance. A basic understanding of energy metabolism during exercise is helpful to appreciate some of the current issues surrounding lactic acid. Please refer to the energy systems article for an explanation of how energy and lactic acid is produced during activity. Lactic Acid and Oxygen Recall that the end product of glycolysis is pyruvic acid. Traditionally, it was believed that oxygen availability, or lack thereof, lead to the conversion of pyruvic acid into lactic acid and accompanying increases in muscle and blood lactate. Over the past 35 years, evidence has mounted against this idea (3,4,25)."

"text": "\"Cycling Performance Presentation - San Francisco Endurance Events and Lactate Testing With Emphasis on the Triathlon 6 of 19Why does every triathlete want a strong aerobic system? Aerobic Energy The answer to the question above is that the aerobic system provides nearly all the energy during an endurance event and the stronger it is for each discipline in the triathlon, the faster a triathlete or any endurance athlete will be during a race. But there is one caveat to this and that is the strength of the anaerobic system. As you read on in these modules you will come to understand how one trains both energy systems is the key to success. If one want to be a successful triathlete, it is essential to understand how each energy system works and more importantly how to train each optimally. There is just one aerobic system. It requires oxygen for usage; hence, the name (from Greek aero meaning air). There are two anaerobic systems for rebuilding ATP. The term “anaerobic” is used to mean that oxygen is not used in either system. It does not mean as some have thought that it is only used when there is no oxygen available."

Cells in the body can quickly and efficiently convert glucose to adenosine triphosphate, or ATP -- the energy currency that enables all bodily functions to occur. Glucose breaks down to ATP by 2 pathways: aerobic metabolism, which requires oxygen, and anaerobic metabolism, which occurs without oxygen. Exercise can help increase the efficiency of anaerobic metabolism of glucose. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Anaerobic Metabolism of Glucose Anaerobic metabolism of glucose is a step-wise biochemical process called glycolysis or fermentation and can be performed by most cells in humans, animals and plants. Glycolysis occurs in the cytosol -- the liquid portion of the cell -- and produces energy quickly but not that efficiently. The anaerobic breakdown of 1 glucose molecule results in the production of 6 ATP molecules, 2 pyruvic acid molecules and 4 hydrogen ions, according to \"\"Guyton and Hall Textbook of Medical Physiology.\"\" By comparison, aerobic metabolism of 1 glucose molecule results in 38 ATP molecules. Intensity versus Duration Muscle cells use anaerobic glycolysis to produce ATP very quickly, about 2.5 times faster than aerobic metabolism, enabling powerful bursts of activity.

Cells produce lactic acid when they metabolize carbohydrates anaerobically -- without oxygen. During high-intensity exercise, muscles expend energy so rapidly that they outrun the circulatory system's ability to provide them with oxygen. As they rely more on anaerobic metabolism, they produce lactic acid, which can accumulate in the bloodstream. Glycolysis The first stage of carbohydrate metabolism is glycolysis. During glycolysis, glucose, or blood sugar, is broken down in a series of steps to produce a compound called pyruvate. Along the way energy is released.

"text": "The Role of Oxygen in Aerobic and Anaerobic Metabolism Posted by Roger Schmitz on Thu, Oct 25, 2012 @ 15:10 PMTweet The body is dependent upon two processes to create energy at rest and during exercise, aerobic and anaerobic metabolism. Simplified, the aerobic metabolic system uses oxygen, while the anaerobic system does not; however, oxygen plays a vital role in allowing the body to function under both systems. Both the aerobic and anaerobic systems occur simultaneously; there is no switching from one to the other. Whether the aerobic or the anaerobic system is dominant depends on the amount of muscle oxygen available. Muscle Oxygen The term muscle oxygen refers to the balance between the supply and demand of oxygen in the muscle. For example, when demand is exceeded by supply, oxygenation is low, and the muscle requires anaerobic metabolism to provide energy. In the opposite case, when supply exceeds demand, oxygenation is high, and the muscle is able to use aerobic metabolism to power itself. Aerobic Metabolism Aerobic metabolism fuels most of the energy needed for long duration activity. The aerobic metabolic system functions using the Krebs Cycle, a complex series of chemical reactions that use oxygen to convert nutrients (carbohydrates, fats, and protein) to carbon dioxide and adenosine triphosphate (ATP), an energy-rich compound. Aerobic metabolism relies on the circulatory system to transport oxygen to the working muscles before it creates ATP."

When muscles contract, they break down ATP in a reaction that provides energy. However, muscle cells only store enough ATP to fuel a few seconds of maximal contraction. To keep working, they must replenish their ATP supply. They can do this for a short period of time by breaking down another high-energy compound called creatine phosphate.

The body can store 80g-100g of ATP at one time. ATP is utilized for quick spurts of significantly demanding activities. During more strenuous workouts Adenosine Triphosphate is broken down at an accelerated rate and is depleted quickly.

"text": "\"Anaerobic glycolysis is a metabolic process in which glucose, a sugar molecule, is broken down without the use of oxygen. Like aerobic glycolysis, which metabolizes glucose in the presence of oxygen, it produces energy for the cells. Breaking down glucose without using oxygen also produces lactate, however, and when the process is prolonged, it generally leads to lactic acidosis, which is a decrease in the p H level of the blood. It is usually alleviated when normal oxygen levels return to the cell and aerobic glycolysis takes over. Typically, anaerobic glycolysis occurs in muscle cells during vigorous physical activity. When the energy requirement for a particular action is not adequately met by aerobic means, the muscle cells process glucose without the use of oxygen in order to produce energy quickly. Eventually, the surrounding tissue is flooded with lactate, and the muscle activity generally decreases. As the lactate concentration increases in the blood, it is slowly converted back to glucose in the liver with the aid of oxygen. The conversion of glucose to lactate and lactate back to glucose is called the Cori Cycle, which was described by Carl and Gerty Cori in the 1930s and 1940s. Ad Certain cells and tissues convert glucose to lactate even in the presence of oxygen, including red blood cells and cells of the retina."

Even so, human growth hormone (GH) is widely abused by athletes. In healthy adults, GH increases lean body mass, although it is possible that fluid retention contributes to this effect. The most recent data indicate that GH does not enhance muscle strength, power, or aerobic exercise capacity, but improves anaerobic exercise capacity. In fact, there are adverse effects of long-term GH excess such that sustained abuse of GH can lead to a state mimicking acromegaly, a condition with increased morbidity and mortality. This review will examine GH effects on body composition and physical performance in health and disease. Previous article Next article GH abuse in athletes Doping with GH is a well-known problem in the world of sports and GH abuse has increased since the availability of recombinant GH in the late 1980 s. Human GH (h GH) is abused by athletes in the hope of improving their performance and to shorten recovery after injury. The increasing popularity of GH among athletes stems from its anabolic and lipolytic properties, and the difficulty of detection [1]. Exogenous h GH is indistinguishable from the GH produced in the pituitary gland, and given the short half-life of h GH (approx 25 min), the window of detection is fairly small. The test implemented for h GH is based on the GH isoform approach [2] and is a major breakthrough in the fight against doping with h GH. The test is based on immunological detection and differentiation between pure 22 k Da recombinant GH from a mixture of GH isoforms secreted from the pituitary gland."

Follow 4 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Cellular respiration is, in its broadest definition, the process in which the chemical bonds of energy-rich molecules such as glucose are converted into energy usable for life processes. Oxidation of organic material—in a bonfire, for example—is an exothermic reaction that releases a large amount of energy rather quickly. The overall equation for the oxidation of glucose is: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy In cellular respiration, this oxidation process is broken down into two basic metabolic pathways: glycolysis, anaerobic respiration or aerobic respiration. cycles are 1 Glycolysis 2 Breakdown of pyruvate 2.1 Aerobic respiration (Cellular Respiration) 2.2 anaerobic respiration (Fermentation) Main article: Glycolysis Glycolysis is a metabolic pathway that is found in all living organisms and does not require oxygen. The process converts one molecule of glucose into two molecules of pyruvate, and makes energy in the form of two molecules of ATP. Glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm of the cell. The overall reaction can be expressed this way: Glucose + 2 NAD+ + 2 ADP + 2 Pi → 2 NADH + 2 pyruvate + 2 ATP + 2 H2O + 4 H+ The individual steps of the conversion of glucose into pyruvate are (in brief): A glucose molecule from the hydrolysation of starch or glycogen is phosphorylated using one ATP molecule to give glucose-6-phosphate."

Most organisms have evolved to use oxygen in their metabolic process, whether as a component of respiration or as a product of photosynthesis. But there are many conditions on Earth in which oxygen is absent, and yet, living things still find a way to use function and use energy. How do they pull it off? They bypass the part of respiration that involves oxygen, which results in different byproducts of the process. Anaerobic respiration is the metabolic process in which oxygen is absent, and only the stage of glycolysis is completed."

Follow 4 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: When oxygen is used to release energy from sugar it is called aerobic respiration. The word equation for aerobic respiration is: Glucose (sugar) + oxygen = carbon dioxide + water + energy The glucose is broken down in two stages. The second stage uses oxygen and yields much energy (18 times more compared with anaerobic respiration). When muscles are working hard, they use up a lot of oxygen. If oxygen does not get to the muscles fast enough for aerobic respiration, the muscles change to anaerobic respiration by processing only the first stage of glucose breakdown and making lactic acid instead. Glucose (sugar) only = carbon dioxide + lactic acid + some energy In anaerobic respiration only the first stage of sugar breakdown occurs. Lactic acid builds up in the muscles and stops them working."

Therefore, less energy is formed per molecule of glucose in anaerobic versus aerobic conditions. The reduction of certain inorganic compounds by anaerobic microbes is often ecologically significant. Key Termsanaerobic: Without oxygen; especially of an environment or organism.reduction: A reaction in which electrons are gained and valence is reduced; often by the removal of oxygen or the addition of hydrogen.anaerobic respiration: metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms that use electron acceptors other than oxygen Anaerobic respiration is the formation of ATP without oxygen. This method still incorporates the respiratory electron transport chain, but without using oxygen as the terminal electron acceptor. Instead, molecules such as sulfate (SO 42- ), nitrate (NO 3– ), or sulfur (S) are used as electron acceptors."

A: Quick Answer Fermentation extends glycolysis, the first stage of metabolism, to produce usable energy, while anaerobic respiration uses molecules other than oxygen to complete the metabolic cycle. Both are methods used to produce ATP, the energy currency of the cell, in the absence of oxygen. Anaerobic respiration produces more energy than fermentation, but is used by fewer organisms in very specific situations. Continue Reading Keep Learning What Happens During Anaerobic Respiration?

This energy is not created by the organism producing the food nor is the energy destroyed when the food energy is used in the body of an organism such as a human (energy cannot be created nor destroyed). In the following chapters you will learn that the energy used by all organisms comes from the sun (which is a portion of the energy released by the Big Bang when the universe originated about 20 billion years ago). The relatively small amount of energy that happens to strike earth is absorbed by plants, algae and cyanobacteria and transformed into energy stored in the chemical bonds of glucose during photosynthesis. Glucose is stored as starch the most important food molecule of man. When digestion occurs, the starch polymer is broken down into glucose, which is absorbed by the circulatory system and carried to the cells where it enters cellular respiration. During the steps of cellular respiration, the chemical energy of glucose is once again transformed into the chemical energy of ATP (adenosine triphosphate)."

ATP is then utilized as energy by nearly every cell in the body– the largest user being the muscle system. Aerobic respiration has four stages: Glycolysis, development of acetyl coenzyme A, the citric acid cycle, and the electron transportation chain. Aerobic respiration is the procedure whereby oxygen-breathing animals turn fuel, such as fats and sugars, right into energy. Respiration is a procedure made use of by all cells to transform gas, which has saved energy, right into a usable type. The product of respiration is a molecule called ATP, which can quickly utilize the energy kept in its phosphate bonds to power chain reaction the cell has to make it through. Aerobic respiration is respiration that uses oxygen as a catalyst. Aerobic respiration is a lot more efficient, and produces ATP a lot more rapidly, than anaerobic respiration (respiration without oxygen). This is because oxygen is an outstanding electron acceptor for the chain reaction. The intricate process of aerobic respiration is highlighted in this visuals."

It is the release of a relatively small amount of energy in cells by the breakdown of food substances in the absence of oxygen. Anaerobic respiration in muscles Anaerobic respiration happens in muscles during hard exercise:glucose → lactic acid C 6 H 12 O 6 → 2C 3 H 6 O 3Glucose is not completely broken down, so much less energy is released than during aerobic respiration. There is a build-up of lactic acid in the muscles during vigorous exercise. The lactic acid needs to be oxidised to carbon dioxide and water later. This causes an oxygen debt - known as excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC) - that needs to be ‘repaid’ after the exercise stops. This is why we keep on breathing deeply for a few minutes after we have finished exercising. Anaerobic respiration in plants and yeast Anaerobic respiration also happens in plant cells and some microorganisms. Anaerobic respiration in yeast is used during brewing and bread-making:glucose → ethanol + carbon dioxide C 6 H 12 O 6 → 2C 2 H 5 OH + 2C0 2Ethanol is the alcohol found in alcoholic drinks like beer and wine.

The Anaerobic Threshold (AT) is the physiological point during exercise at which lactic acid starts to accumulate in the muscles, which occurs around the point during increasing intensity exercise that anaerobic processes become more dominant. For this reason it is also sometimes called the Lactate Threshold (LT). Other names describe a similar point, such as the onset of blood lactate accumulation (OBLA) and maximal lactate steady state. Although these terms are often used interchangeably with anaerobic threshold, they are not technically the same thing. Anaerobic Threshold Testing There are several possible ways to measure anaerobic threshold, some more simple than others. Formula — well-trained athletes may use as a rule of thumb \"\"210 minus their age\"\" to indicate anaerobic threshold. Another formula is 85-90% of maximum heart rate (220-age), which usually gives a lower value. Either method provides a very rough estimate, and one of the following methods would be more reliable. Steady-State Heart Rate — a good approximation of the anaerobic threshold is the mean heart rate during a long duration race (e.g. 10km run, 30km cycle)."

Aerobic Capacity is dependent on The respiratory system, (consume O2), heart (transport O2), vascular system (transport O2), muscle cells (use O2)Define VO2 Max The highest rate of oxygen consumption attainable during maximal/exhaustive work. Explain how individual physiological makeup affects VO2 Max VO2 Max is primarily linked to an efficient respiratory system, but it is the contribution of the heart, circulatory system and muscle efficiency that collectively allows an athlete to increase their aerobic capacity. The higher the VO2 Max, the greater potential the athlete has to work at a higher level of their VO2 Max, just below the anaerobic threshold, thereby increasing their work intensity and delaying fatigue. Explain how heredity/genetics affects VO2 Max Can account for as much as half the variation in VO2 Max, e.g. whether an athlete has a higher percentage of Type I and Type IIa (FOG) oxidative fibers. Similarly an athlete's response to training varies because of genetic variation and therefore their individual level of adaptation may affect how much their VO2 Max may increase. However, heredity only indicates an individual's potential to have a high VO2 Max - it is ultimately the aerobic training they undertake that helps them achieve their full potential. Explain how aerobic training affects VO2 Max Specificity of training ensures that a programme of aerobic training will increase VO2 Max due to the long-term adaptations to aerobic training, and links directly to an athlete's individual response to training."

"text": "Critical Power: an overview Back in 1965, Critical Power was defined in a seminal paper by Monod and Scherrer as a power level that ‘could be sustained for a very long time without fatigue’. It has subsequently been shown that it is not as simple as these authors made it out to be, and that 60 minutes is probably the maximum duration that Critical Power can be held. However, it has been shown to have a high correlation with VO2max, at one time the ‘gold standard’ measure of endurance (aerobic) fitness. Critical Power is measured in watts which is a work rate commonly used in an exercise context when athletes exercise on an ergometer (a piece of apparatus which simulates a sport’s movement patterns and which typically measures work performed in joules or kilojoules and the work rate in watts. A rowing ergometer is an example of this). Critical Power was described as the ‘upper limit of aerobic capacity’, a definition which implies an intensity similar to what was commonly employed in the 1980s, the Anaerobic Threshold. This concept has now been shown to be a complete misnomer, being neither anaerobic nor a threshold, and hence its use has all but disappeared in the literature and in the sports training environment. Critical Power Models Many research groups have examined Critical Power in efforts to determine its physiological characteristics with clarity, and several different models have been proposed. We at TPE Sports Coaching have used the linear model which enables Critical Power determination from two (or three) relatively simple time trials, and which yields information which can be used to monitor progress as a training program progresses. The diagram shown here illustrates the application of the same data to two of the models used to calculate Critical Power."

"text": "The anaerobic threshold (AT) is the exertion level between aerobic and anaerobic training. The AT is the point during exercise when your body must switch from aerobic to anaerobic metabolism. The AT is a useful measure for deciding exercise intensity for training and racing in endurance sports. During aerobic metabolism, your body creates energy by burning carbohydrates and fats in the presence of oxygen and produces carbon dioxide and water as by-products (breathing and sweating). Most of our daily activities are fueled by aerobic metabolism. Anaerobic metabolism kicks in when exercise intensity is greatly increased, and the aerobic system can no longer keep up with the body’s energy demand. This is the point at which we cross the AT. During anaerobic metabolism, the body burns stored sugars to supply the additional energy needed, and lactic acid is produced faster than it can be metabolized. Muscle pain, burning and fatigue make anaerobic energy expenditure difficult to sustain for longer than a few minutes. The fitter you are, the longer you can fuel your body with the aerobic system before the anaerobic system needs to take over."

"text": "Endurance sports are activities which are performed during longer time interval and which prevailingly use aerobic metabolism involvement. Aerobic metabolism prevails during physical exercise which is longer than than 2-3 minutes at a low, middle or submaximal intensity load. Exercies used are usually locomotions or repeated cyclic movements. Many scientific works proved that aerobic endurance may last for a longer time before fatique appears and that it can last even in the state of fatique. Also recovery rates are highly related to quality of endurance abilities and faster recovery allows the athlete to shorten rest intervals within and between training sessions and increase overall training load. The most recognized model of endurance abilities physiology is the Cardiovascular/Anaerobic model, initially suggested by British physiologists A. V. Hill and associates in the mid-1920s. This model basically posits that a lack of oxygen in working muscles is what ultimately limits exercise performance. The cause of fatigue is primarily in cardiorespiratory system and utilization of oxygen. Most adherents to this model use the terms of VO 2max, lactate threshold, and running economy when discussing aerobic or endurance training or physiology. Thanks to the new knowledge’s from this field of exercise physiology were made several new models from various points of view, e.g Neuromuscular fatigue model, Muscle trauma model, Biomechanical model, Thermoregulatory model, etc."

"text": "\"Lactate inflection point (LIP), is the exercise intensity at which the blood concentration of lactate and/or lactic acid begins to exponentially increase. [ 1] It is often expressed as 85% of maximum heart rate or 75% of maximum oxygen intake. [ 2] When exercising at or below the LT, any lactate produced by the muscles is removed by the body without it building up. [ 3]The onset of blood lactate accumulation (OBLA) is often confused with the lactate threshold. With a higher exercise intensity the lactate production exceeds at a rate which it cannot be broken down, the blood lactate concentration will show an increase equal to 4.0m M; it then accumulates at the muscle and then moves to the bloodstream. [ 2]Regular endurance exercise leads to adaptations in skeletal muscle which prevent lactate levels from rising. This is mediated via activation of PGC-1α which alters the isoenzyme composition of the LDH complex and decreases the activity of the lactate generating enzyme LDHA, while increasing the activity of the lactate metabolizing enzyme LDHB.

"text": "3 Ways to Increase Your Lactate Threshold Posted by Roger Schmitz on Wed, Sep 19, 2012 @ 14:09 PMTweet While it was originally believed that maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) was central to successful performance in endurance activities, it has been more recently discovered that lactate threshold (aka anaerobic threshold) is a better indicator of performance. Strong correlations have been noted between activities requiring high endurance with maximal steady-state workload at the lactate threshold.¹For athletes, this discovery demands new workout methods to maximize performance in endurance events. Studies have shown that the way to achieve the most dramatic improvement in lactate threshold is through a combination of high-volume training, steady-state training at the anaerobic threshold, and interval training above the threshold. I. High-Volume Training The first step you should take to improve your lactate threshold level should be to increase your training volume. This will increase your capacity for mitochondrial respiration, an essential component in improving your anaerobic threshold. While cardiovascular mode of exercise you choose to use is not important, the increased training volume must remain gradual. For example, if you are currently performing 100 minutes of cardiovascular training per week, and want to increase that to 200 minutes, you would want to gradually increase your training volume 10% to 20% each week.¹To determine the appropriate level of cardiorespiratory exercise intensity during high volume training, you may want to consider using the RPE Scale (RPE stands for “Rate of Perceived Exertion). Developed by Swedish psychologist Gunnar Borg, the RPE Scale measures feelings of effort, strain, discomfort, and fatigue experienced during both aerobic and resistance training. The scale ranges from 6 to 20, with 6 representing no exertion at all, 11 light, 15 heavy, and 20 maximal exertion.²When gradually increase training volume, an RPE of 11 or 12 is sufficient. While the total amount of cardiovascular exercise per session can vary within the week, you should complete a minimum of 10 minutes per session.¹II."

"text": "\"One of the phrases that is used often in endurance training literature is \"\"lactate threshold.\"\" What does phrase mean and why is it important to endurance athletes? Intensity When I prescribe workouts to tell athletes how fast to swim, bike or run I use seven different intensity zones. These training zones can be correlated with heart rate, rating of perceived exertion, power and pace. To help athletes improve endurance, speed and performance, each workout within a training plan is assigned an intensity based on the strategy and purpose of that specific training plan. Energy Production In order to make more sense out of training zones, it is important to understand a bit about energy production within the body. Our bodies need to have a continuous supply of energy--even to sleep. Energy is supplied by complex chemical reactions. The end result of these chemical reactions is a rich compound called adenosine triphosphate or ATP. The potential energy within the ATP molecule is utilized for all energy-requiring processes of the cells of your body."

"text": "Exercise Physiology How To Determine Lactate / Anaerobic Threshold Add Comment by J Anderson 56,212 Views There are several methods used to determine an athletes lactate or anaerobic threshold. While the most accurate and reliable is through the direct testing of blood samples during a graded exercise test, this is often inaccessible to most performers. There are several field tests that can also be used to estimate lactate threshold. They vary in their reliability but some offer an acceptable alternative for most amateur athletes. Several terms such as onset of blood lactate accumulation and maximal lactate steady state are used interchangeably with anaerobic threshold. Technically, they do not describe precisely the same thing. In fact, although lactate threshold and anaerobic threshold occur together under most conditions, strictly speaking even these two terms are not the same (1). For this article however, lactate threshold and anaerobic threshold will be used interchangeably. See the lactate threshold article for more details on this topic. It is also worth bearing in mind that blood lactate and lactic acid are not the same substance."

"text": "\"Beginners Anaerobic Metabolism vs. Aerobic Metabolism Producing and Burning Energy for Exercise By Wendy Bumgardner Updated March 13, 2018Share Pin Email Print Michael H/Taxi Japan/Getty Images Your body uses two types of metabolism during exercise to provide the fuel needed for your muscles. Learn about aerobic and anaerobic metabolism, how they work, and what it means for you when you exercise. Anaerobic metabolism is the creation of energy through the combustion of carbohydrates in the absence of oxygen. This occurs when your lungs cannot put enough oxygen into the bloodstream to keep up with the demands of your muscles for energy. It generally is used only for short bursts of activity, such as when you go for a sprint when running or cycling or when you are lifting heavy weights. When there isn't enough oxygen in the bloodstream, glucose and glycogen cannot be fully broken down to carbon dioxide and water. Instead, lactic acid is produced, which can build up in the muscles and degrade muscle function. Aerobic metabolism is the way your body creates energy through the combustion of carbohydrates, amino acids, and fats in the presence of oxygen. Combustion means burning, which is why this is called burning sugars, fats, and proteins for energy. Aerobic metabolism is used for the sustained production of energy for exercise and other body functions."

Photo: www.shutterstock.com When you break it down, it’s not as complicated as it first seems. The concept of lactate-threshold training sounds complicated, but if you want to make improvements as a runner, then it’s worth learning about this important zone and how to successfully train in it. Competitor recently sat down with Team Running USA head coach Dennis Barker to hear his thoughts on the subject. Since 2001, he’s been at the helm at Team Running USA Minnesota, a Twin Cities-based training group that has produced over 20 national champions and one Olympian since its founding. Barker argues that being able to run for longer periods of time at or near lactate threshold in training was a factor in the success of Carrie Tollefson, who competed in the 2004 Olympics. What exactly is lactate threshold? It’s just a line between aerobic and anaerobic running. You’re aerobic right now, because you’re taking in enough oxygen to meet the demands of what you are doing."

During rest more ATP is produced than needed and excess energy is transferred to creatine in your muscles. Increased blood flow by hyperemia help produce Creatine Phosphate. The body can store 80g-100g of ATP at one time. ATP is utilized for quick spurts of significantly demanding activities. During more strenuous workouts Adenosine Triphosphate is broken down at an accelerated rate and is depleted quickly. ATP + Creatine <–> ADP + Creatine Phosphate Muscle activity breaks down ATP and Creatine as Adenosine Diphosphate (ADP) and Creatine Phosphate are created Creatine Phosphate (CP) aids to replenish Adenosine Diphosphate (ADP)ADP is then used to replenish Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP)ATP is used to convert Creatine to Creatine Phosphate Naturally ATP and CP levels are replenished after a few minutes of rest after anaerobic activity. CP level deplete within 15 second of physical activity. The body stores four to six times more Creatine Phosphate than Adenosine Triphosphate, allowing for rapid ATP replenishment. During aerobic activity the body uses other resources such as carbohydrates and fats from the glucose in your muscles, liver, and blood to make Adenosine Triphosphates."

The long run is also an important element for middle distance runners. The 10K runner will benefit from runs of 8 miles, 10 miles and even up to 14 miles or more. A 5K runner will benefit from runs of 6 miles, 8 miles and up to 12 miles or so. The long run has been emphasized as the building block of training for over 30 years.

ANSWER: Strictly speaking, the terms \"\"aerobic\"\" and \"\" an aerobic\"\" refer to the presence and absence of oxygen, respectively. Most of our cells prefer to get their energy by using oxygen to fuel metabolism. During exercise with adequate fuel and oxygen (i.e., aerobic), muscle cells can contract repeatedly without fatigue. During anaerobic or non-oxygen conditions (i.e., higher intensity exercise), muscle cells must rely on other reactions that do not require oxygen to fuel muscle contraction. This anaerobic metabolism in the cells produces waste molecules that can impair muscle contractions. We call this deterioration in performance fatigue."

S. federal government8 See also9 References10 External links General description [ edit]An anesthesiologist assistant (AA) is a non-physician anesthesia provider qualified by advanced education and clinical training to work under the direction of an anesthesiologist in developing and implementing the anesthesia care plan. [ 1] The anesthesiologist assistant works under the medical direction of an anesthesiologist as an assistant in the Anesthesia Care Team (ACT). Anesthesiologist assistants obtain pre-anesthetic health history, perform preoperative physical exams, establish non-invasive and invasive monitors, administer medications, evaluate and treat life-threatening situations, and execute general and regional anesthetic techniques, as delegated by the anesthesiologist. [ 2]Anesthesiologist assistants generally work in the hospital setting but can work at any location where they can be medically directed by anesthesiologists. Anesthesiologist assistants work under the medical direction of physician anesthesiologists in surgical environments such as cardiac surgery, neurosurgery, transplant surgery, and trauma surgery centers. The incorporation of anesthesiologist assistants into ACT teams across the country is a dynamic process, and currently there are sixteen states, as well as Washington D. C. and the Veteran’s Affairs Medical System, in which anesthesiologist assistants are able to work but none currently do. [ 2] In each of these states, the anesthesiologist assistant falls under the regulatory authority of the State Board of Medicine. ["

The anaesthetist will discuss this in detail with you before the surgery. After the operation the shoulder and arm may feel numb. This should last for about 12-24 hours. After this the shoulder may be sore and you will be given painkillers to help this whilst in hospital. These should be continued after you are discharged home. It is essential you take the painkillers before the nerve block has worn off."

"text": "\"Drips Why do I need to have a drip? An intravenous line or drip as it's commonly referred to is used in almost all anaesthetics. The reason it is used is that it provides the most direct route for administration of drugs and fluids to the person undergoing the anaesthetic. Having a rapid way of giving drugs gives us the ability to induce anaesthesia in the most rapid and smooth means, and for further administration of drugs as required during the operation. It also provides the most rapid means of giving important drugs during emergencies that may arise. Finally preoperative fasting and fluid and blood losses during the operation mean fluids need to be given during the operation to compensate and intravenous fluids are the only practical means of doing this. There are some situations where a compromise may have to be reached in terms of safety versus person's comfort. If a needle phobia is the biggest fear of the person and other safety factors are adequately met the anaesthetic can be started by a gas mask. Children often have their anaesthetic started in this manner. The pain of having an drip put in is usually slightly more than that of having blood taken."

Examples of uses include: Orthopaedic surgery on the pelvis, hip, femur, knee, tibia, and ankle, including arthroplasty and joint replacement Vascular surgery on the legs Endovascular aortic aneurysm repair Hernia ( inguinal or epigastric)Haemorrhoidectomy Nephrectomy and cystectomy in combination with general anaesthesia Transurethral resection of the prostate and transurethral resection of bladder tumours Hysterectomy in different techniques used Caesarean sections Pain management during vaginal birth and delivery Spinal anaesthesia is the technique of choice for Caesarean section as it avoids a general anaesthetic and the risk of failed intubation (which is probably a lot lower than the widely-quoted 1 in 250 in pregnant women [3] ). It also means the mother is conscious and the partner is able to be present at the birth of the child. The post operative analgesia from intrathecal opioids in addition to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs is also good. Spinal anesthesia is a favorable alternative, when the surgical site is amenable to spinal blockade, for patients with severe respiratory disease such as COPD as it avoids potential respiratory consequences of intubation and ventilation. It may also be useful, when the surgical site is amenable to spinal blockade, in patients where anatomical abnormalities may make tracheal intubation very difficult."

These areas are the skin and mucous membranes of the lower lip, the skin of the chin, the lower teeth and the labial gingiva of the anterior teeth, all unilaterally to the midline of the side on which the block is administered.

Another symptom is harmless numbness and tingling of the body of the tongue and floor of the mouth, which indicates that the lingual nerve, a branch of the mandibular nerve, is anesthetized. Another symptom that can occur is “lingual shock” as the needle passes by the lingual nerve during administration.

To diagnose whether a lump is thyroid cancer when FNA (needle biopsy) is suspicious or inconclusive (follicular or Hurthle cell lesion, or neoplasm). Eighty percent (80%) of these turn out to be benign and require no further treatment. About 20% of these to prove to be cancer.

Contents [ hide]1 Why hair grows2 How hair grows3 Some quick facts about hair:4 Hair growth cycle5 Why hair only grows to a certain length6 How to grow your hair faster and longer Why hair grows The human body contains roughly 5,000,000 hair follicles, and the function of each hair follicle is to produce a hair shaft. Our early ancestors used to have most of their bodies covered in hair, like our other primate cousins. This served to conserve heat, protect from the sun, camouflage and more. Today, however, humans are the most conspicuous of the 5,000 mammal species seeing how we’re virtually naked, but why is that? Scientists believe that our lineage has become less and less hairy in the past six million years since we shared a common ancestor with our closest relative, the chimpanzee. Our ape ancestors spent most of their time in cool forests, but a furry, upright hominid walking around in the sun would have overheated. One of the main theories concerning our lack of fur suggests that temperature control played a key role. Bare skin allows body heat to be lost through sweating which would have been important when early humans started to walk on two legs and began to develop larger brains than their ape-like ancestors."

Postpartum hair loss is a normal – and temporary – postpartum change that is unrelated to breastfeeding. Most women will return to their usual hair growth cycle between 6 and 12 months after birth. Many new moms notice hair loss – sometimes quite dramatic – around three months postpartum. This is a normal – and temporary – postpartum change that is unrelated to breastfeeding. Following is how the hair growth cycle works: All hair has a growth phase, termed anagen, and a resting phase, telogen. On the scalp, anagen lasts approximately 3 years, while telogen lasts roughly 3 months, although there can be wide variation in these times between individuals. During telogen, the resting hair remains in the follicle until it is pushed out by growth of a new anagen hair.—"

The good news, on the other hand, is that drug induced hair loss usually reverses itself as soon as you stop taking the medication concerned, so damage is rarely permanent. Medications That Cause Hair Loss - Why Does It Happen? Our hair passes through cycles of growth. One of these cycles - the anagen phase - lasts for 3 to 4 years and is the time during which the hair is actually growing. It's followed by the telogen phase - lasting for around 3 months - during which time the hair 'rests'. Once the telogen phase is over, the hair falls out... and new hair grows to replace it. But some medications may interfere with this hair growth cycle. The most common type of interruption results in a type of hair loss called 'telogen effluvium'. The hair falls out because the medication causes it to enter the telogen - or 'resting' phase - earlier than it should."

These structures embryologically originate from the epidermis and can extend down through the dermis into the hypodermis. Hair Hair is a keratinous filament growing out of the epidermis. It is primarily made of dead, keratinized cells. Strands of hair originate in an epidermal penetration of the dermis called the hair follicle. The hair shaft is the part of the hair not anchored to the follicle, and much of this is exposed at the skin’s surface. The rest of the hair, which is anchored in the follicle, lies below the surface of the skin and is referred to as the hair root. The hair root ends deep in the dermis at the hair bulb, and includes a layer of mitotically active basal cells called the hair matrix. The hair bulb surrounds the hair papilla, which is made of connective tissue and contains blood capillaries and nerve endings from the dermis ( Figure 1 )."

It serves as a protective barrier that prevents internal tissues from exposure to trauma, ultraviolet (UV) radiation, temperature extremes, toxins, and bacteria. Other important functions include sensory perception, immunologic surveillance, thermoregulation, and control of insensible fluid loss. The integument consists of 2 mutually dependent layers, the epidermis and dermis, which rest on a fatty subcutaneous layer, the panniculus adiposus. The epidermis is derived primarily from surface ectoderm but is colonized by pigment-containing melanocytes of neural crest origin, antigen-processing Langerhans cells of bone marrow origin, and pressure-sensing Merkel cells of neural crest origin. The dermis is derived primarily from mesoderm and contains collagen, elastic fibers, blood vessels, sensory structures, and fibroblasts. [ 1] See the image below. Anatomy of the skin. View Media Gallery During the fourth week of embryologic development, the single cell thick ectoderm and underlying mesoderm begin to proliferate and differentiate. The specialized structures formed by the skin, including teeth, hair, hair follicles, fingernails, toenails, sebaceous glands, sweat glands, apocrine glands, and mammary glands also begin to appear during this period in development."

"text": "Submitted by vcruz on Tue, 04/14/2009 - 12:10am Biology 202 Web Paper 2For many people, the hair is considered to be an important part of their physical appearance and dedicate a lot of their time and energy to their hair maintenance and care. There are more and more products developed to improve the growth and prevent the loss of hair in men as well as in women. However, we rarely see any of these products to really prove to work. Many women frustrate over the fact that they cannot grow their hair past a certain length, while other women do not even need to put any efforts for growing beautiful long hair; and at a certain age, men start worrying about the signs of hair loss, while others grow old without this problem. This makes one wonder, what is it that causes some people to be able to grow beautiful, long, strong hair, while others do not. Is this simply established in our genes and thus controlled in our brain, or does this depend on certain behaviors, treatments, experiences, etc .that we may have exposed our hair to throughout our life? Is this simply controlled by our brain? Or is it a combination of many of these? In our Neurobiology and Behavior class, we have learned about the ways in which many parts of our body are controlled by our nervous system, even those components that we would not even think of as being related to the nervous system. In one class, we discussed how certain things, like body heat and our “normal” weight are some of those features that are “controlled” by what can be seen as a “thermostat” that operates within our nervous system and that allows for these different factors to return to its “normal” state whenever they have reached an “abnormal” state [1]. Studies suggest that this theory can also be applied to the ways in which our hair grows."

You can stimulate this growth if you follow all or some of the tips below. In some cases, women have reported that by applying these techniques their hair has grown about one quarter to one-half inch in a week. If you are curious what your results will be, grab a meter to measure your hair and try the following over a period of one week. Then measure your hair again. You can make a chart and put the figures at the end of each week to see what the long-term results will be. Use natural oils Natural oils like coconut oil, almond oil, argan oil, olive oil, jojoba oil and castor oil are extremely beneficial for your hair. They provide it with special nutrients, keep it hydrated and as a result the hair is healthier and shiny. Here are two ways how to use them: Hair treatment with hot oil – warm some coconut, jojoba, argan or olive oil on a stovetop or in a bowl of boiling water and massage it gently in your scalp with fingers. Be careful with the temperature – the oil should be warm not hot, wait some time to cool down if necessary."

"text": "Beauty & Fashion Hair Q: How Long Does It Take to Grow a Beard? A: Quick Answer Beards can reach full length in as little as two months or as long as six years. The final length of a beard is determined by the length of the hair's growing period, which is called the anagen phase. Everyone's anagen phase is different, which is why there is such variance when it comes to the time it takes to grow a full beard. Continue Reading Keep Learning How Long Does It Take for Eyelashes to Grow? What Are Ways to Make a Beard Grow Faster? How Do You Make Facial Hair Softer? Full Answer The speed at which beard hair grows, as well as the length of its anagen phase, is determined by genetics. On average, facial hair grows at a speed of one-half inch per month. Therefore, for an average adult male, growing an appreciable beard should normally take a couple of months, though this is subjective."

Each species of animal possesses hair with characteristic length, color, shape, root appearance, and internal microscopic features that distinguish one animal from another. Considerable variability also exists in the types of hairs that are found on the body of an animal. In humans, hairs found on the head, pubic region, arms, legs, and other body areas have characteristics that can determine their origin. On animals, hair types include coarse outer hairs or guard hairs, the finer fur hairs, tactile hairs such as whiskers, and other hairs that originate from the tail and mane of an animal. Because hairs can be transferred during physical contact, their presence can associate a suspect to a victim or a suspect/victim to a crime scene. The types of hair recovered and the condition and number of hairs found all impact on their value as evidence in a criminal investigation. Comparison of the microscopic characteristics of questioned hairs to known hair samples helps determine whether a transfer may have occurred."

"text": "This is part one in my series Longer, Faster, Thicker. I get this question a lot, so I figured I’d dedicate an entire post to it. The answer is pretty straight forward: It takes anywhere between two months and six years to grow a beard. Click To Tweet Let me explain. Every hair on the human body, including beard hairs, goes through three phases of life–anagen, catagen, and telogen. The first phase, anagen, is the growth phase and the one we are concerned with today. The anagen phase (for head hair) lasts anywhere from two to six years, and since this is the growth phase, we can say with confidence that no man’s beard can ever grow longer than it is at six years old. Now, a man’s genetics determines how long his beard’s growth phase is. That’s right, the cocktail of wonder your parents threw together is responsible for the length of your beard, and there’s nothing you can do about it. Your beard will either be a stunted youngling, or an ancient six-year-old."

If you shave your pubic hair it always grows back faster than what your hair on your head would grow too. Why???? Update: Or does it just seem to stop growing because it gets curlier? LOL22 following 48 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: It doesnt stop growing. It reaches a certain length and then it falls out. It just appears to stop growing because it is constantly replaced by new hair. All hair has a growth phase, termed anagen, and a resting phase, telogen. On the scalp, anagen lasts approximately 3 years, while telogen lasts roughly 3 months, although there can be wide variation in these times between individuals. During telogen, the resting hair remains in the follicle until it is pushed out by growth of a new anagen hair."

"text": "Overview The human hair follicle is an intriguing structure, and much remains to be learned about hair anatomy and its growth. The hair follicle can be divided into 3 regions: the lower segment (bulb and suprabulb), the middle segment (isthmus), and the upper segment (infundibulum). The lower segment extends from the base of the follicle to the insertion of the erector pili muscle (also known as the arrector pili muscle). The middle segment is a short section that extends from the insertion of the erector pili muscle to the entrance of the sebaceous gland duct. The upper segment extends from the entrance of the sebaceous gland duct to the follicular orifice. ( See the image below.) [ 1, 2]Anatomy of the hair follicle. The histologic features of the hair follicle change continuously and considerably during the hair growth cycle, thereby making follicular anatomy an even more complex entity. The size of hair follicles varies considerably during the existence of the follicles. Anagen hairs vary in size from large terminal hairs, such as those on the scalp, to the small vellus hairs that cover almost the entire glabrous skin (except palms and soles)."

"text": "Connective-Tissue Hair Sheath The connective-tissue hair sheath is an important physical support of the hair follicle. In the follicle of anagen hair the structure of the upper half of the connective-tissue sheath differs from that of the lower halt, which changes during the growth cycle. Between the epidermis and the sebaceous-gland layer fine collagenous fibers are arranged longitudinally around the upper half of the hair follicle.24 Around the lower half, the connective-tissue sheath consists of fine collagenous fibers that are arranged circularly in the inner layer and longitudinally in the outer layer Prominent elastic filaments develop in the upper half of the connective-tissue sheath, but only a few elastic fibers are present in the lower half. The brush-like filaments that project into the dermal papilla and the circular filaments that occur in both the dermal papilla and its basal plates are present in most hair follicles. These fine, brush-like filaments appear to be connected to the longitudinally arranged fibers in the outer layer of the connective-tissue sheath, and the circularly arranged elastic filaments appear to be connected to those fibers of the inner layer. These elastic-like bodies occur in the follicles of adolescents, but they diminish with age. Amino Acid Analysis of Hair Fibers of human hair are extremely complex; and, morphologically, they consist of several different chemical species. Amino acids that comprise the peptide chain, which forms the basis of the keratin molecules, are readily available in the body. For synthesis of follicular proteins, the most important amino acids are those that contain sulfur i.e., predominantly cystine, because it forms stable disulfide bonds between keratin molecules. Table 2 indicates that cystine is the amino acid of highest concentration in fully formed bait The cortex occupies the primary volume of human hair and contains the principal structural proteins, which are insoluble and contain extensive cystine disulfide cross-linkages (hard keratin)."

"text": "Home > Hair Growth & Hair Types > Seasonal Variations Seasonal changes in Hair re-growth The normal human hair on the scalp consists of about 100,000 hair follicles. Each healthy hair follicle is capable of hair re-growth innumerable times in its lifetime. The normal rate of hair shedding is about 50-100 hairs a day, but some seasonal changes can trigger the hair shedding to occur even two times faster. Studies are still being carried out to find out the role of seasonal changes in hair re growth. According to researchers, hair grows steadily in winter while shedding starts increasing in spring and reaches its maximum in fall to have 100 hairs shed in a day. The shedding also affects rate of hairregrowth. The rate of seasonal hair shedding and hair re growth can vary from person to person. Some people are prone to shed large amounts of hair but they soon can have their hair growth restored through quick hair re growth with the change of season. Reasons of seasonal changes in hair re-growth Though the reasons for hair growth due to seasonal changes are quite ambiguous, the following facts try to infer some meaningful information from these. The recognized reason of hair shedding is the Anagen cyclical phase."

It is described in Babylonian cuneiformic texts such as the Venus tablet of Ammisaduqa, which relates observations that possibly date from 1600 BC. [ 1] The Babylonians named the planet Ishtar ( Sumerian Inanna ), the personification of womanhood, and goddess of love. [ 2] She had a dual role as a goddess of war, thereby representing a deity that presided over birth and death. [ 3] One of the oldest surviving astronomical documents, from the Babylonian library of Ashurbanipal around 1600 BC, is a 21-year record of the appearances of Venus (which the early Babylonians called Nindaranna ). The ancient Sumerians and Babylonians called Venus Dil-bat or Dil-i-pat; in Akkadia it was the special star of the mother-god Ishtar.

When he rises with Helios (the Sun), no longer do the trees deceive him by the feeble freshness of their leaves. For easily with his keen glance he pierces their ranks, and to some he gives strength but of others he blights the bark utterly.

C redit: Science Museum, London. Wellcome Images Here in England, it is hard to imagine the importance which the Dog Days and the heliacal rising of the star Sirius (the ‘Dog Star’) had in antiquity. We have finally had a bit of sunshine here in Somerset today, and I escaped my desk to spend a bit of time contemplating the marvellous power of Helios in my urban garden, and then remembered: we are now officially in the Dog Days. It is not always that obvious in the UK though! I also pondered the associations between the Goddess Hekate, dogs and the Dog Days – and indeed the Dog Star “Sirius”."

My friend had a problem with her i Phone and it was replaced with a completely new phone. Source (s):20+ years practicing lawevilattorney · 9 years ago0 0 Comment Only purchase a refurbished phone from a reputable dealer, retailer, or manufacturer. Verify the credentials of the seller and the refurbisher. If there are no verifiable details, you may want to reconsider your purchase. Any reputable dealer who is selling refurbished electronics will be able to provide details on the refurbishment and, if available, prior ownership. A phone manufacturer has a vested interest in the success of its brand, and so is not likely to sell refurbished phones that will not stand up to normal wear and tear."

I love small bites that pack a big punch and these Plantain Chips with Chorizo, Guacamole and Pickled Jalapeños are no exception. I first made these for a Cinco de Mayo party we attended last month and made them again just last week for a Memorial Day party. While they look fancy and like they take a lot of time, the truth is most of the components are or can be made in advance. Start with the plantain chips, you are certainly welcome to make them homemade but I prefer to buy this brand. They are $1.99 a bag at my local Whole Foods Market and you only need two bags for a lot of these bites. The pickled jalapeños need to be made in advance (or you could buy them if you can find a clean-ingredient brand!) and you can make the guacamole the day before. That leaves the chorizo. You need to make the chorizo right before you want to assemble these so that it is warm but that only takes about 15 minutes."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search“Black yeasts”, sometimes also black fungi, dematiaceous fungi, microcolonial fungi or meristematic fungi [1] is a diverse group of slow-growing microfungi which reproduce mostly asexually ( fungi imperfecti ). Only few genera reproduce by budding cells, while in others hyphal or meristematic (isodiametric) reproduction is preponderant. [ 2] [3] [4] [5] Black yeasts share some distinctive characteristics, in particular melanisation of their cell wall. Morphological plasticity, incrustation of the cell wall with melanins and presence of other protective substances like carotenoids and mycosporines [6] represent passive physiological adaptations which enable black fungi to be highly resistant against environmental stresses. [ 7] The term \"\" polyextremotolerance \"\" has been introduced to describe this phenotype, a good example of which is the species Aureobasidium pullulans. [ 8] Presence of 1,8-dihydroxynaphtalene melanin in the cell wall [9] confers to the microfungi their characteristic olivaceous to dark brown/black colour. The consortium comprises two phylogenetically very different fungal groups. [ 10] [11] Many are found in the orders Capnodiales, Dothideales, and Pleosporales (class Dothideomycetes ). These black fungi mostly have an extremotolerant life style. Many representatives of this group can colonize bare rocks e.g. in the Mediterranean basin or in hot and cold dry deserts and are therefore referred to as rock-inhabiting fungi, [10] [11] or occur in salterns.

It was released worldwide for Play Station 4 and Xbox One on February 23, 2016, and for Microsoft Windows on March 1, 2016. The game is a spiritual predecessor to the main Far Cry series. It is the first Far Cry game set in the Mesolithic Age. It revolves around the story of Takkar, who starts off as an unarmed hunter and rises to become the leader of a tribe. Far Cry Primal received generally positive reception from critics, who mostly praised the concept and setting, as well as the animal-taming mechanic and world design. Some reviewers felt there was a lack of weapons for the player to utilize, leading to repetitive gameplay design, while others felt the story and characters were not on par with the previous Far Cry games.

Far Cry Primal is an action-adventure game set in an open world environment and played from a first-person perspective. As the game is set in prehistoric times, the traditional gunplay and vehicle gameplay featured in the Far Cry series were removed, [1] and the player can only get access to melee weapons such as spears, clubs, axes, and ranged weapons such as bows and slings.

Phenazopyridine was discovered by Bernhard Joos, the founder of Cilag.

It is sometimes used in conjunction with an antibiotic or other anti-infective medication at the beginning of treatment to help provide immediate symptomatic relief. Phenazopyridine does not treat infections or injury; it is only used for symptom relief. [ 1] [2] It is recommended that it be used for no longer than the first two days of antibacterial treatment as longer treatment may mask symptoms. [ 2]Phenazopyridine is also prescribed for other cases requiring relief from irritation or discomfort during urination. For example, it is often prescribed after the use of an in-dwelling Foley catheter, endoscopic ( cystoscopy) procedures, or after urethral, prostate, or urinary bladder surgery which may result in irritation of the epithelial lining of the urinary tract.

"text": "Home Notes Medical-Surgical Nursing Urolithiasis (Renal Calculi)Notes Medical-Surgical Nursing Urolithiasis (Renal Calculi)By Matt Vera - Mar 20, 2012Facebook Twitter Pinterest Email Print Description Urolithiasis refers to stones (calculi) in the urinary tract. Stones are formed in the urinary tract when the urinary concentration of substances such as calcium oxalate, calcium phosphate, and uric acid increases. Stones vary in size from minute granular deposits to the size of an orange. Factors that favor formation of stones include infection, urinary stasis, and periods of immobility, all of which slow renal drainage and alter calcium metabolism. The problem occurs predominantly in the third to fifth decades and affects men more often than women. Pathophysiology Presence of stones anywhere in the urinary tract Most commonly found in the renal pelvis and calyces Stones forming in the kidney —nephrolithiasis Stones formed in the ureters —ureterolithiasis May be single or multiple calculi, ranging in size from a grain of salt to the size of a pebble or staghorn calculus Composition of calculi Formed of mineral deposits—predominantly calcium oxalate and calcium phosphate Uric acid, struvite, and cystine are also calculus formers Etiology Slow urine flow allows accumulation of crystals—damaging the lining of the urinary tract and decreasing the number of inhibitor substances that would prevent crystal accumulation (Winkleman, 2006). May remain asymptomatic until passed into a ureter or urine flow is obstructed, at which time the potential for renal damage is acute and the level of pain is at its highest. Causes: dehydration; heredity; excessive intake of vitamins C and D, grapefruit juice, and purines (gout); congenital renal abnormalities; and some medications, such as acetazolamide (Diamox) or indinavir (Crixivan)Clinical Manifestations Manifestations depend on the presence of obstruction, infection, and edema. Symptoms range from mild to excruciating pain and discomfort. Stones in Renal Pelvis Intense, deep ache in costovertebral region Hematuria and pyuria Pain that radiates anteriorly and downward toward bladder in female and toward testes in male Acute pain, nausea, vomiting, costovertebral area tenderness (renal colic)Abdominal discomfort, diarrhea Ureteral Colic (Stones Lodged in Ureter)Acute, excruciating, colicky, wavelike pain, radiating down the thigh to the genitalia Frequent desire to void, but little urine passed; usually contains blood because of the abrasive action of the stone (known as ureteral colic)Stones Lodged in Bladder Symptoms of irritation associated with urinary tract infection and hematuria Urinary retention, if stone obstructs bladder neck Possible urosepsis if infection is present with stone Assessment and Diagnostic Methods Diagnosis is confirmed by xrays of the kidneys, ureters, and bladder (KUB) or by ultrasonography, IV urography, or retrograde pyelography."

"text": "Urinary Tract Infection If this is your first urinary tract infection (UTI), you can take solace in the fact that you're not alone: more than 10 percent of women suffer from a UTI at least once a year. Treatment may now be only a phone call away, and you could feel better in a single day. Best Health Source: Adapted from Knowing Your Options: The Definitive Guide to Choosing The Medical Treatments, Reader’s What is a urinary tract infection (UTI)? Most urinary tract infections are called ‘lower UTIs,’ meaning the germs have taken hold in your urethra (a condition called urethritis) or in your bladder (a condition called cystitis). If the germs travel farther, an ‘upper UTI’ can develop, affecting the narrow tubes (ureters) leading to the kidneys or even the kidneys themselves. This potentially serious infection is known as pyelonephritis. Between 80 and 90 percent of urinary tract infections are caused by Escherichia coli ( E. coli ), a bacterium usually confined to the colon and rectum that can spread from the anus to the urethra. Because a woman’s urethra is relatively short, women are more prone to UTIs than men (whose much longer urethra in the penis makes it harder for the bacteria to travel to the bladder). After menopause, some women are increasingly susceptible to infection because of a lack of estrogen. Treatment for urinary tract infections The good news for uncomplicated bacterial urinary tract infections, including cystitis, is that doctors will now often prescribe antibiotics over the phone, skipping the need for an in-office urine culture."

"text": "\"Home » Diseases and Conditions » Urinary Tract Infection (UTI)By Sarah Maurer A urinary tract infection, or UTI, is an infection of any part of the urinary system, the group of organs that removes water and waste products from the blood. About 95 percent of UTIs involve the lower urinary tract. This includes the bladder (the organ that collects and holds urine) and the urethra (the tube through which urine exits the body). Lower urinary tract infections are also called cystitis. They can be quite painful, but usually don't cause permanent damage. Sometimes cystitis spreads to the upper urinary tract, causing a more serious infection called pyelonephritis. This can affect the kidneys (the organs that remove excess water and waste products from the blood) and the ureters (the tubes that connect the kidneys and bladder). In acute (sudden, short-term) pyelonephritis, there is a risk that bacteria will enter the blood stream, causing a life-threatening condition called septicemia. Chronic (long-term) pyelonephritis can cause scarring and permanent damage to the kidneys. UTIs are four times more common in women than in men."

Nocturia is a condition that causes patients to have to urinate more frequently during the night. When combined with urgent urination, which is a sudden, urgent need to urinate, more often than not the culprit is a urinary tract infection. Other causes of frequent urination, which often can be controlled with medication, include diabetes, prostate problems, overactive bladder syndrome and interstitial cystitis. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Antibiotics Antibiotics typically are prescribed to treat urinary tract infection. They are given in pill form to treat the entire body because infections of the urinary tract often can spread to the kidneys. NIH doctors report that women with a simple bladder infection usually take antibiotics for three days while men need to take the medicine for an average of seven to 14 days. Antibiotics most commonly prescribed include trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, doxycycline and amoxicillin. Elmiron Elmiron is the only medication available to treat interstitial cystitis (IC), report NIH doctors.

Related to pyelonephritis: chronic pyelonephritis, cystitis, glomerulonephritis Pyelonephritis Definition Pyelonephritis is an inflammation of the kidney and upper urinary tract that usually results fromnoncontagious bacterial infection of the bladder ( cystitis ). Description Acute pyelonephritis is most common in adult females but can affect people of either sex andany age. Its onset is usually sudden, with symptoms that often are mistaken as the results of straining the lower back. Pyelonephritis often is complicated by systemic infection. Leftuntreated or unresolved, it can progress to a chronic condition that lasts for months or years,leading to scarring and possible loss of kidney function. Causes and symptoms The most common cause of pyelonephritis is the backward flow (reflux) of infected urine from thebladder to the upper urinary tract. Bacterial infections also may be carried to one or both kidneysthrough the bloodstream or lymph glands from infection that began in the bladder. Kidneyinfection sometimes results from urine that becomes stagnant due to obstruction of free urinaryflow. A blockage or abnormality of the urinary system, such as those caused by stones, tumors,congenital deformities, or loss of bladder function from nerve disease, increases a person's risk of pyelonephritis."

"text": "Red Blood Cells in Urine The presence of red blood cells in urine is a very common condition. Generally, our urine contains around 2.5 million red blood cells excreted everyday as part of our bodily process in eliminating the old red blood cells. Sponsored link The medical term for red blood cells in urine is hematuria. And there are two types of hematuria: the microscopic and the macroscopic hematuria. The microscopic hematuria is a condition wherein the urine is composed of abnormal amounts of red blood cells which cannot be seen through the naked eyes. The macroscopic hematuria contains sufficient amounts of red blood cells in urine which make it visible enough to change the color of the urine from yellow to red or pink. Normal Results Values of up to 4 red blood cells present per high power field indicate that nothing is wrong. But when the value goes higher than that, it may be an indication of a serious condition that needs treatment as soon as possible. Causes of Red Blood Cells in Urine Though the presence of red blood cells in urine is pretty normal and not life-threatening, there are some other contributing factors that need to be checked out including:• Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) – because of the bacterial invasion around the urinary tract, it causes damage to the surrounding tissues and results to the red blood cells entering the urine. When not treated right away, the infection may spread up into the urethra and to the kidneys as well.• Kidney Stones – when kidney stones are not detected early, these stones cause blockage to the kidney as well as the urinary tract."

Here's the lazy woman's truth about urinary tract infections: They're annoying enough to make peeing a nightmare, but not annoying enough to justify scheduling a doctor's appointment just to treat it. There are so many theories about how cranberry juice can relieve the pain, or how cranberry pills are an OTC way to get rid of one — but there's no proof that those supposed UTI treatments actually work. So, do you have to go to the doctor when you get one? The short answer is yes — since the alternative is pretty bleak. \"\" If a UTI goes untreated, the infection can spread from the urinary tract into your bloodstream, and you may have a systemic infection that could be life-threatening,\"\" says Vannita Simma-Chiang, MD, assistant professor of urology at Mount Sinai Health System. But how do you go from burning pee to a life-threatening illness? A urinary tract infection can travel up to your kidneys and cause a kidney infection, which makes your kidneys inflamed and not function properly, Dr. Simma-Chiang says. And that kidney infection could end up in your bloodstream. Of course, that's the worst-case scenario and it's relatively rare, but Dr. Simma-Chiang says it's very difficult to treat even the smallest UTI at home."

Renal colic is a painful kidney damage caused by an obstruction in the normal flow of urine, usually stones (calculus) or (once four) compression. It requires analgesics and anti-inflammatory emergency. After an episode relapse is common. There are about 2 million people with urinary calculi in France and each year it is estimated that 5 to 10% cause colic. It is estimated that nearly 10% of men and 5% of women have suffered or suffer from colic at least once in their lives. The diagnosis of renal colic may be particularly difficult to do during pregnancy. Renal colic (img thanks to remotely.tv)How’s it going? Back pain (in the region of the kidneys, especially in the back corner of the spine and last ribs) is due to the sudden increase in pressure in the renal cavities that collects urine produced by kidney (renal pelvis caliceal cavities)."

However, bacteria from the rectal area may enter the urinary tract through the urethra and travel the short distance to the bladder. While normally the bladder cleanses itself of bacteria, if for some reason it can't, the bacteria may cause an infection."

For understanding the fundamentals of electronics you need an in depth knowledge of Semiconductor physics and the working of basic electronic devices. Now you know the behaviour and functioning of basic elements, so you want to apply your knowledge to the practical world. You design various circuits and make various useful analogous stuff, you basically apply the electronics practically in analog circuits. But you also need to ensure the proper functioning of your device so you are curious about the circuit behaviour, you need to analyse the electrical parameters hence..the circuit theory (or Network analysis) comes in play. It's too bulky when you just started adding more components to the circuit, you figured you can't take these things everywhere you go. You're concerned about making things portable, faster, smarter etc. So you took the electronics to the micro level ( Microelectronics and VLSI) you started dealing with digital values and hence made much smarter and useful things with Digital electronics/circuits."

"text": "\"Abhisek Maiti, Very basic knowledge in Electromagnetism but always keen to learn Answered Aug 5, 2015 · Author has 190 answers and 291.3k answer views This graphics roughly explains the concept of 'Ohm's Law'. You can get the idea that voltage and current (Ampere is S. I. unit of current) are two different physical quantity. Voltage: Voltage is the electric potential difference between two points in an electric field. It is equal to the work done per unit charge against a static electric field to move the unit charge from one point to another. Current: Current is basically the rate of the flow of electric charge generally through a medium, i.e. currenti = dq/dt. Where 'q' represents charge and 't' represents time. In D. C. circuits if a suitable medium is present, voltage difference causes the flow of charge i.e current. Ohm's law defines that for a fixed medium (same material, same cross section, same length, same temperature), the ratio of voltage and current is constant. This ratio is called resistance and represented by'R=V/I', where 'V' represents voltage and 'I' represents current.9.7k Views · View Upvoters Your response is private.

"text": "Standard or High Definition: It’s All in the Pixel Count Most of us don’t think much about the images we look at on a TV, flat-panel display, or on a laptop or desktop computer screen; that is, we don’t think about what comprises the image–because our eyes and brain merge all the elements of color, brightness and contrast into a “picture” we immediately see. The process is similar, but not exactly analogous, to what happens when we watch a movie. We don’t sit there and dissect the 24 still pictures presented sequentially every second (in the case of a TV program, 30 frames per second). Our visual system and brain merge the rapidly moving images into motion, and if the TV show or movie is any good, we’re happy. What is a Pixel? But if you move up really close to an electronic image display and use a magnifying glass, you can see the tiny individual squares of red, green, and blue “pixels” (short for “picture elements” in modern video-speak) that comprise the image. The pixels are actually square or rectangular in new technologies like LCD (liquid-crystal display), plasma panels, and in DLP (digital light processing) or LCD front and rear projection sets. And the smaller the pixels, and the more of them there are distributed vertically and horizontally across the face of the screen, the greater the “resolution” or detail we will see in the image. ( On the old but familiar CRT picture tube TV, the picture elements are groups of round red, green and blue phosphor dots that glow when the electron beam in the tube strikes them. ) How Many Pixels?"

Many inventors made technological breakthroughs that were used by other inventors to successfully make working television systems. The first working television systems were electromechanical and used a motor-generator. Electronic television systems or all-electronic television systems do not have or use a motor-generator. These television history facts include some of the most notable milestones in the development of television, but many other inventors that are not mentioned here played critical roles in the invention of the television.1884 – The first electromechanical television was proposed and patented by Paul Julius Gottlieb Nipkow. Nipkow never built a working model of the electromechanical television.1888 – Liquid Crystals were accidentally discovered by Friedrich Reinitzer. Liquid crystals were a scientific curiosity for about 80 years before they were used to build liquid crystal displays (LCD).1897 – The first Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) was built by Karl Ferdinand Braun.1925 – John Logie Baird was the inventor who built the world’s first working television system. The world’s first working television system was electromechanical.1928 – The world’s first successful color transmission by John Logie Baird. The color transmission was made using an electromechanical television system.1928 – The first working electronic television (all-electronic) was built by Philo Taylor Farnsworth. The electronic television (all-electronic) system did not use or have the motor-generator that was used in the electromechanical television systems.1936 – The world’s first analog high definition TV (HDTV or HD) regular service was started in Britain in 1936.1964 – The first working liquid crystal display (LCD) was built by George H. Heilmeier."

Data transmission also data communication or digital communications is the transfer of data (a digital bitstream or a digitized analog signal [1]) over a point-to-point or point-to-multipoint communication channel. Examples of such channels are copper wires, optical fibers, wireless communication channels, storage media and computer buses. The data are represented as an electromagnetic signal, such as an electrical voltage, radiowave, microwave, or infrared signal. Analog or analogue transmission is a transmission method of conveying voice, data, image, signal or video information using a continuous signal which varies in amplitude, phase, or some other property in proportion to that of a variable. The messages are either represented by a sequence of pulses by means of a line code ( baseband transmission ), or by a limited set of continuously varying wave forms ( passband transmission ), using a digital modulation method. The passband modulation and corresponding demodulation (also known as detection) is carried out by modem equipment. According to the most common definition of digital signal, both baseband and passband signals representing bit-streams are considered as digital transmission, while an alternative definition only considers the baseband signal as digital, and passband transmission of digital data as a form of digital-to-analog conversion. Data transmitted may be digital messages originating from a data source, for example a computer or a keyboard."

It is characterized by the representation of discrete time, discrete frequency, or other discrete domain signals by a sequence of numbers or symbols and the processing of these signals. Digital signal processing and analog signal processing are subfields of signal processing. DSP includes subfields like: audio and speech signal processing, sonar and radar signal processing, sensor array processing, spectral estimation, statistical signal processing, digital image processing, signal processing for communications, control of systems, biomedical signal processing, seismic data processing, etc. The goal of DSP is usually to measure, filter and/or compress continuous real-world analog signals. The first step is usually to convert the signal from an analog to a digital form, by sampling and then digitizing it using an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), which turns the analog signal into a stream of numbers."

"text": "\"1 From orbits to orbitals About ten years after Bohr had developed his theory, de Broglie showed that the electron should have wavelike properties of its own, thus making the analogy with the mechanical theory of standing waves somewhat less artificial. One serious difficulty with the Bohr model still remained, however: it was unable to explain the spectrum of any atom more complicated than hydrogen. A refinement suggested by Sommerfeld assumed that some of the orbits are elliptical instead of circular, and invoked a second quantum number, l, that indicated the degree of ellipticity. This concept proved useful, and it also began to offer some correlation with the placement of the elements in the periodic table. The Schrödinger equation By 1926, de Broglie's theory of the wave nature of the electron had been experimentally confirmed, and the stage was set for its extension to all matter. At about the same time, three apparently very different theories that attempted to treat matter in general terms were developed. These were Schrödinger's wave mechanics, Heisenberg's matrix mechanics, and a more abstract theory of P. A. M. Dirac. These eventually were seen to be mathematically equivalent, and all continue to be useful. Of these alternative treatments, the one developed by Schrödinger is the most easily visualized. Schrödinger started with the simple requirement that the total energy of the electron is the sum of its kinetic and potential energies: The second term represents the potential energy of an electron (whose charge is denoted by e) at a distance r from a proton (the nucleus of the hydrogen atom)."

Bird, bat, and pterosaur wings are analogous structures, but their forelimbs are homologous, sharing an ancestral state despite serving different functions. The opposite of convergence is divergent evolution, where related species evolve different traits. Convergent evolution is similar to but different from parallel evolution. Parallel evolution occurs when two independent but similar species evolve in the same direction and thus independently acquire similar characteristics; for instance, gliding frogs have evolved in parallel from multiple types of tree frog."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search For other uses, see Analogy (disambiguation). Analogy (from Greek ἀναλογία, analogia, \"\"proportion\"\" [1] [2]) is a cognitive process of transferring information or meaning from a particular subject - the analog or source, to another - the target, or a linguistic expression corresponding to such a process. In a narrower sense, analogy is an inference or an argument from one particular to another particular, as opposed to deduction, induction, and abduction, where at least one of the premises or the conclusion is general. The word analogy can also refer to the relation between the source and the target themselves, which is often, though not necessarily, a similarity, as in the biological notion of analogy. Rutherford's model of the atom ( modified by Niels Bohr) made an analogy between the atom and the solar system. Analogy plays a significant role in problem solving, as well as decision making, argumentation, perception, generalization, memory, creativity, invention, prediction, emotion, explanation, conceptualization and communication. It lies behind basic tasks such as the identification of places, objects and people, for example, in face perception and facial recognition systems. It has been argued that analogy is \"\"the core of cognition\"\". [ 3] Specific analogical language comprises exemplification, comparisons, metaphors, similes, allegories, and parables, but not metonymy. Phrases like and so on, and the like, as if, and the very word like also rely on an analogical understanding by the receiver of a message including them."

Google Classroom Facebook Twitter Email Key points: In transformation, a bacterium takes up a piece of DNA floating in its environment. In transduction, DNA is accidentally moved from one bacterium to another by a virus. In conjugation, DNA is transferred between bacteria through a tube between cells. Transposable elements are chunks of DNA that \"\"jump\"\" from one place to another. They can move bacterial genes that give bacteria antibiotic resistance or make them disease-causing. Introduction When you hear the word \"\"clone,\"\" what do you think of? Maybe Dolly the sheep, or experiments carried out in molecular biology labs.

Though some species may appear to be related, if you take a deeper look you'll be surprised at how different they really are. Analogous structures can provide information about how natural selection leads to similar adaptations in the same environment. What are Analogous Structures? Many species have similar traits because they are descendants of a single common ancestor. These species developed from a single source and are related to a certain degree despite their current differences. The traits they share are known as homologous structures. Homologous structures are similar in structure and function because they originated from the same ancestor long ago. Species may also have similar traits even though they are not related to each other. This usually results because the species live in similar environments and fill similar ecological roles."

"text": "\"Models in Science First published Mon Feb 27, 2006; substantive revision Mon Jun 25, 2012Models are of central importance in many scientific contexts. The centrality of models such as the billiard ball model of a gas, the Bohr model of the atom, the MIT bag model of the nucleon, the Gaussian-chain model of a polymer, the Lorenz model of the atmosphere, the Lotka-Volterra model of predator-prey interaction, the double helix model of DNA, agent-based and evolutionary models in the social sciences, and general equilibrium models of markets in their respective domains are cases in point. Scientists spend a great deal of time building, testing, comparing and revising models, and much journal space is dedicated to introducing, applying and interpreting these valuable tools. In short, models are one of the principal instruments of modern science. Philosophers are acknowledging the importance of models with increasing attention and are probing the assorted roles that models play in scientific practice. The result has been an incredible proliferation of model-types in the philosophical literature. Probing models, phenomenological models, computational models, developmental models, explanatory models, impoverished models, testing models, idealized models, theoretical models, scale models, heuristic models, caricature models, didactic models, fantasy models, toy models, imaginary models, mathematical models, substitute models, iconic models, formal models, analogue models and instrumental models are but some of the notions that are used to categorize models. While at first glance this abundance is overwhelming, it can quickly be brought under control by recognizing that these notions pertain to different problems that arise in connection with models. For example, models raise questions in semantics (what is the representational function that models perform? ), ontology (what kind of things are models? ),"

Biologists state that all living organisms must share a single last common ancestor. When critically analyzing and comparing their similarities, evidence can be identified about their evolutionary relationships. However, environment also has a great influence on organisms’ characteristics. Natural selection and adaptation lead organisms to survive or become extinct from the environment. Scientists compare anatomy, embryos and DNA data to determine the evolutionary history of organisms and build phylogenetic trees. However, phylogenetic trees or evolutionary trees are hypothesized constructions. Hence, scientists use homologous characters and analogous characters. Homologous characters are the similar characters observed in different organisms due to a common ancestor. These organisms have homologous structures."

However, the octopus and the human are not closely related and reside far away from each other on the phylogenetic tree of life. Zankl/Nature Picture Library / Getty Imagesby Heather Scoville Updated April 13, 2017There are many types of evidence for evolution, including studies in the molecular biology field ( like DNA) and also in the developmental biology field. However, the most commonly used types of evidence for evolution are anatomical comparisons between species. While homologous structures show how similar species have changed from their ancient ancestors, analogous structures show how different species have evolved to become more similar. Speciation is the change over time of one species into a new species. So why would different species become more similar? Usually, the cause of convergent evolution is similar selection pressures in the environment. In other words, the environments in which the two different species live are similar and those species need to fill the same niche in different areas around the world. Since natural selection works in the same way in these types of environments, the same types of adaptations are favorable and those individuals with those favorable adaptations survive long enough to pass down their genes to their offspring."

"text": "\"Teleological Arguments for God's Existence First published Fri Jun 10, 2005; substantive revision Thu Jan 15, 2015Some phenomena within nature exhibit such exquisiteness of structure, function or interconnectedness that many people have found it natural—if not inescapable—to see a deliberative and directive mind behind those phenomena. The mind in question, being prior to nature itself, is typically taken to be supernatural. Philosophically inclined thinkers have both historically and at present labored to shape the relevant intuition into a more formal, logically rigorous inference. The resultant theistic arguments, in their various logical forms, share a focus on plan, purpose, intention and design, and are thus classified as teleological arguments (or, frequently, as arguments from or to design). Although enjoying some prominent defenders over the centuries, such arguments have also attracted serious criticisms from a number of major historical and contemporary thinkers. Both critics and advocates are found not only among philosophers, but come from scientific and other disciplines as well. In the following discussion, major variant forms of teleological arguments will be distinguished and explored, traditional philosophical and other criticisms will be discussed, and the most prominent contemporary turns (cosmic fine tuning arguments, many-worlds theories, and the present Intelligent Design debate) will be tracked. Discussion will conclude with a brief look at one historically important non-inferential approach to the issue.1. Introduction2.

"text": "By Thomas Newton17th August 2012News HD – short for High Definition – is everywhere these days, but is it really a big deal and what’s the difference between 720p HD and 1080p Full HD when it comes to television displays and video content? Games consoles play HD games, all of the public service broadcasters (that’s the BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5) have dedicated HD channels and streaming services like Netflix and Amazon Prime Instant Video play thousands of movies in HD on demand. Even pretty much every cheap-as-chips entry-level phone that hits the shelves these days has an HD screen, so you can enjoy high-def video on the move. But what actually is HD, how many different types of HD are there, and what’s the difference between 720p HD, 1080p Full HD, Quad HD and 4K Ultra HD? Here’s our explainer guide. What is HD? So what actually is HD? HD, or High Definition, refers to the detail level of a screen; or to put it another way, the number of pixels that are packed into a display. A pixel is the smallest visible element on a display, the ‘dots’ that combine to make up the overall picture. HD follows from standard definition (the level of detail in analogue colour TV that most of us grew up with), cramming in even more pixels in order to produce sharper, cleaner images when playing video."

Television technology has evolved and so too has the technology that supplies TV reception, which is great news for Australian households as we can now enjoy plenty of free to air television station choices – commonly referred to as Freeview. Depending in which state and region you reside, there are now 17 or more Freeview stations available in most Australian Capital and Regional cities. Australia too, like every other nation, are switching from analogue to digital. The Government of Australia has already announced that all analogue TV signals will be switched off by December 10th, 2013. But, does that mean you have to throw away your existing television? Not at all! If you’re still operating on an analogue television set, you don’t actually have to buy a whole new television; you could consider getting a digital antenna and set top box, which will pick up all the new Freeview stations. At Jim’s Antennas, we can provide you with no obligation free onsite quote and evaluate your digital aerial needs to make sure you’re getting the best possible reception for your viewing pleasure, while also making sure you have access to all of the latest digital stations including Gem and 7Mates. If you haven’t yet experienced digital television, it’s definitely time to let Jim’s Antennas come and look at supplying you with a digital antenna for your TV – the range of new television stations will amaze you with their variety and they are comparable to pay television."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search The digital television transition, also called the digital switchover, the analog switch-off ( ASO ), or the analog shutdown, is the process in which older analog television broadcasting is converted to and replaced by digital television. This primarily involves the conversion of analog terrestrial television to digital terrestrial. However, it also involves analog cable conversion to digital cable, as well as analog to digital satellite television. Begun by some countries around 2006, this is an involved process because the existing analog television receivers owned by viewers cannot receive digital broadcasts; viewers must either purchase new digital TVs, or converter boxes which change the digital signal to an analog signal which can be viewed on the old TV. In many countries, a simulcast service is operated where a broadcast is made available to viewers in both analog and digital at the same time. As digital becomes more popular, it is likely that the existing analog services will be removed. In some cases this has already happened, where a broadcaster has offered incentives to viewers to encourage them to switch to digital. In other cases government policies have been introduced to encourage or force the switchover process, especially with regard to terrestrial broadcasts. Government intervention usually involves providing some funding for broadcasters and, in some cases monetary relief to viewers, to enable a switchover to happen by a given deadline. The switchover process is being accomplished on different schedules in different countries; in some countries it is being implemented in stages as in Australia, India and the United Kingdom, where each region has a separate date to switch off."

He is the author of cerebral literary fiction, and writes gritty crime fiction under the pseudonym of George Stark. He lives in Ludlow, Maine and has a summer home in Castle Rock, Maine . In Needful Things Thad is mentioned. Alan Pangborn remembers how Thad would get drunk and call him. He also remembers how Thad's wife took the twins and left. In Bag of Bones Thad is mentioned by Mike Noonan. Mike says that Thad had committed suicide.

Media Landscapes Spain Written by Ramón Salaverría, Beatriz Gómez Baceiredo Map List Print1. Introduction The Kingdom of Spain is a vast and very populated country of the European Union, with more than 500,000 sq km and 46.1 million inhabitants according to the 2008 census. It has a population density of 88.6 people per sq km. Its GDP is at the average level of the 27 EU countries: 23,396 euro per capita in 2007. The administrative structure of the country is divided in 17 autonomous communities, distributed in 52 provinces. According to the national census of 2008, the cities with highest population are Madrid, the capital, with 3.21 million inhabitants; Barcelona with 1.61 million; Valencia with 807,200, Sevilla with 699,759; and Zaragoza with 666,129. The official language is Spanish, although in some autonomous communities other minority languages have official status as well: Catalan (together with its varieties of Valencian and Balear) is spoken by 17 percent of the population, Galician by 8.2 percent. Basque is spoken by 1.5 percent. Since the end of Francisco Franco’s dictatorship in 1975, Spain has been governed by a parliamentary political system under a constitutional monarchy."

Brd U is commonly used in the detection of proliferating cells in living tissues. 5-bromodeoxycytidine is deaminated to form Brd U. Brd U can be incorporated into the newly synthesized DNA of replicating cells, substituting for thymidine during DNA replication. Antibodies specific for Brd U can then be used to detect the incorporated chemical, thus indicating cells that were actively replicating their DNA. Binding of the antibody requires denaturation of the DNA, usually by exposing the cells to acid or heat. Brd U can be passed to daughter cells upon replication. Brd U has been demonstrated to be detectable over two years post-infusion. Because Brd U can replace thymidine during DNA replication, it can cause mutations, and its use is therefore potentially a health hazard. However, because it is neither radioactive nor myelotoxic at labeling concentrations, it is widely preferred for in vivo studies of cancer cell proliferation. However, at radiosensitizing concentrations, Brd U becomes myelosuppressive thus limiting its use for radiosensitizing."

"text": "\"From our point of view, it is appropriate to think of the language and literature of Anglo-Saxon England as \"\"Old English,\"\" because the language is the remote ancestor of the English spoken today. Yet for the inhabitants of Anglo-Saxon England, the language was, of course, not old, and did not come to be referred to generally as \"\"English\"\" until fairly late in the period. The earliest reference given in the Oxford English Dictionary is 890. Bede's Latin Ecclesiastical History of the English People refers collectively to the people as gens Anglorum, which in the vernacular translation becomes angel-cynne (English-race). However, in Bede's time the England of today was divided into a number of petty kingdoms. Language, the Roman Church, and monastic institutions lent these kingdoms a certain cultural identity, but a political identity began to emerge only during the ninth century in response to the Danish invasions, and through King Alfred's efforts to revive learning and to make Latin religious and historical works, such as Bede's History , available in vernacular translations. Most of the surviving vernacular poetry of Anglo-Saxon England consists of free translations or adaptations of Latin saints' lives and books of the Bible, such as Genesis, Exodus, and Daniel. But with the exception of The Battle of Maldon about the defeat of Earl Byrhtnoth and his men by Viking raiders and The Battle of Brunanburh, a poem celebrating an English victory over the invaders, secular heroic poetry has little or nothing to do with England or English people. Beowulf is set in Scandinavia; its principal characters are Danes, Geats, Swedes, and there are brief references to other pagan Germanic tribes such as the Frisians, Jutes, and Franks. Certainly Beowulf is a remarkable survivor, in the Anglo-Saxon or Old English language, of a great literary tradition, but one that is by no means exclusively English."

"text": "\"Freebase (4.00 / 3 votes)Rate this definition: Literary merit Literary merit is the quality shared by all works of fiction that are considered to have aesthetic value. The concept of \"\"literary merit\"\" has been criticized as being necessarily subjective, since personal taste determines aesthetic value, and has been derided as a \"\"relic of a scholarly elite\"\". Despite these criticisms, many criteria have been suggested to determine literary merit including: standing the test of time, realistic characters, emotional complexity, originality, and concern with truth. In 1957, at the obscenity trial for Howl, author Walter Van Tilburg Clark was prodded into defining literary merit. His response outlines some of the popular criteria: The only final test, it seems to me, of literary merit, is the power to endure. Obviously such a test cannot be applied to a new or recent work, and one cannot, I think, offer soundly an opinion on the probability of endurance save on a much wider acquaintance with the work or works of a writer than I have of Mr. Ginsberg's or perhaps even with a greater mass of production than Mr. Ginsberg's. ... Aside from this test of durability, I think the test of literary merit must be, to my mind, first, the sincerity of the writer.

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Jessica (Merchant of Venice))navigation search Jessica The Merchant of Venice character Jessica (1888), by Luke Fildes. Created by William Shakespeare Jessica is the daughter of Shylock, a Jewish moneylender, in William Shakespeare 's The Merchant of Venice ( c. 1598 ). In the play, she elopes with Lorenzo, a pennyless Christian, and a chest of her father's money, eventually ending up in Portia and Bassanio's household. In the play's dramatic structure, Jessica is a minor but pivotal role. Her actions motivate Shylock's vengeful insistence on his \"\"pound of flesh\"\" from Antonio; her relationships with Lorenzo and Shylock serves as a mirror and contrast to Portia's with Bassanio and with her father; her conversion to Christianity is the end of Shylock's line's adherence to the Jewish faith. Literary critics have historically viewed the character negatively, highlighting her theft of her father's gold, her betrayal of his trust, and apparently selfish motivations and aimless behaviour. Since the end of the 20th century their views have been more moderate and nuanced, pointing to an alternate reading that allows her actions to be motivated by love and generosity, and being driven by Shylock's own tyrannical and immoral behaviour.

Genres may be determined by literary technique, tone, content, or even length. Genre should not be confused with age category, by which literature may be classified as either adult, young-adult, or children's. They also must not be confused with format, such as graphic novel or picture book. The distinctions between genres and categories are flexible and loosely defined, often with subgroups. The most general genres in literature are epic, tragedy, comedy, novel, short story, and creative nonfiction. They can all be in the genres prose or poetry, which shows best how loosely genres are defined. Additionally, a genre such as satire, allegory or pastoral might appear in any of the above, not only as a sub-genre, but as a mixture of genres. Finally, they are defined by the general cultural movement of the historical period in which they were composed. The concept of \"\"genre\"\" has been criticized by Jacques Derrida."

The novel covers the years 1945 to 1955, and also provides the back story of Vito Corleone from early childhood to adulthood. The book introduced Italian criminal terms like consigliere, caporegime, Cosa Nostra, and omertà to an English-speaking audience. It formed the basis for a 1972 film of the same name. Two film sequels, including new contributions by Puzo himself, were made in 1974 and 1990. The first and second films are widely considered to be two of the greatest films of all time.

No, it most certainly is not. After all, we can watch news reports from anywhere on earth live these days, we can see a man land on the moon and we can watch presidents being assassinated. TV has unquestionably changed the world. And in these days of Netflix streaming 4K video and OLED TVs that are thin as paper it seems worth taking a look at the journey that TV has been on, how it has improved over the years, and what might be next for the medium. Who invented TV is something of a hotly contested matter. Ask an American, and they'll mention Edison, ask a Brit and we might say John Logie Baird. The truth is, a lot of people had input into what ultimately became a global phenomenon. The very start The first TV-related patent was granted in 1884 to a 23-year-old student called Paul Gottlieb Nipkow in Germany. Nipkow invented something called an \"\"image rasterizer\"\" but he was never able to build a working one."

"text": "Why This Analyst Sees Starbucks Stock Worth 20% More By Chris Lange April 28, 2015 10:55 am ESTPrint Email Tweet 0Post So far this year, Starbucks Corp. (NASDAQ: SBUX) has been as hot as the coffee it serves, up nearly 25%, and analysts like the taste even more. Independent research firm Argus has detailed in a comprehensive report that Starbucks has a solid position going forward. Argus maintained its Buy rating on Starbucks and raised its target price to $59 from $54. The firm’s earnings per share (EPS) estimates remain $1.60 for the 2015 fiscal year and $1.88 for the 2016 fiscal year. The independent research firm’s review of the company’s growth initiatives resulted in more confidence in Starbucks’ multichannel strategy. The company is introducing new beverages and using promotions such as “treat receipts” on social media to attract customers. On the cost front, Starbucks has purchased nearly 70% of the coffee it needs in the 2015 fiscal year, and Argus expects careful procurement to result in flat coffee costs this year. Over the long term, Argus remains confident that Starbucks can boost U. S. same-store sales, increase its international store count and grow its Channel Development business. Geographically, comparable sales rose 7% in the Americas, 12% in China/Asia Pacific and 2% in the Europe/Middle East/Africa region (EMEA). The overall comparable growth of 7% reflects a 3% increase in restaurant traffic and a 4% increase in the average ticket."

By Tom Taulli, Investor Place Writer & IPO Playbook Editorhttps://investorplace.com/?p=731623When Square Inc ( SQ) went public in mid-November 2015, the initial public offering was surrounded by optimism that it would spark a comeback for tech IPOs. After all, on the debut, the stock racked up an impressive 45%. But the good times didn’t last as the market plunged into a wrenching correction. The resulting shockwave sent Square stock from nearly $15 to $8 (keep in mind that the offering price on the IPO was $9). Although, this was not an end to the roller coaster: As the market made a move to the upside, so did Square stock — and in an impressive way. Now the SQ stock price is $12. Not bad."

Industry heavyweight Mc Donald's ( MCD ) announced what appears to be an extensive restructuring plan. Shares of Chipotle Mexican Grill ( CMG ), flagship of the game-changing fast-casual segment, dived after the company announced that its ethical stance on pork products had eaten away at revenue. And high-profile names like Dunkin' Brands ( DNKN ),Domino's Pizza ( DPZ ),Starbucks ( SBUX ),Yum Brands (YUM) and Cheesecake Factory (CAKE) all spiked on strong quarterly results. Restaurants are in many ways different from what they were five years ago -- or even one year ago. More than 20% of the 58 stocks in IBD's Retail-Restaurants industry group have gone public in the last five years. Four of them went public in the last 12 months. The IPOs -- and aggressive expansion by chains like Starbucks, Chipotle and others into new areas -- give consumers more choices for where and what to eat. Older chains face fresh ideas, new competition (for both customers and employees) and rising standards among consumers. Investors have tapped the trend, holding the restaurants group in or near the top 20 rankings for the past six months among the 197 industry groups that IBD tracks."

(QCOM)Julie Lamb, Senior Editor - February 7, 2017, 12:44 PM EDT SHARE ON: Top analyst Michael Walkley at Canaccord sees bullish forecasts ahead for Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) and QUALCOMM, Inc. (NASDAQ: QCOM ); so much so that he is out lifting the price targets on both these tech giants. As Apple soars on record i Phone unit highs and even while Qualcomm battles it out with Apple over licensing, the analyst continues to bet on these two stocks for success. Michael Walkley has a very good Tip Ranks score with a 63% success rate and a high ranking of #32 out of 4,382 analysts. Walkley garners 17.2% in his annual returns. When recommending AAPL, Walkley realizes 18.9% in average profits on the stock. When suggesting QCOM, Walkley yields 0.9%. Let’s dive in: Apple Continues to Lead in Smartphone Market Share Capture Following a solid first fiscal quarter of 2017 where Apple posted record i Phone units that led to robust “premium-tier global smartphone market” share gains, Walkley sees full bullish steam ahead for the tech giant. As such, the analyst reiterates a Buy rating on AAPL while boosting the price target from $142 to $154, which represents an 18% increase from where the shares last closed. Even though Apple’s second fiscal quarter guidance indicates i Phone units will take a slight dip in year-over-year, the analyst believes 2018 will be a year of strong ASPs coupled with unit growth. Moreover, the analyst anticipates “pricing power” with the i Phone X, the 10 th anniversary model of the phone, expecting the i Phone 8 will have good odds “ […] to monetize technology and form factor upgrades and improvements driving strong ASPs and unit growth in F2018.”Overall, “Given the Galaxy Note 7 issues and strong demand for i Phone 7 Plus models, we believe Apple will extend its leading market share of the premium-tier smartphone market installed base during 2017."

Instead of having to travel between different stores and restaurants, kiosks would allow the consumer to purchase everything from vegetables to videogames in one convenient location. While this may seem like something out of Idiocracy – a dystopian Luke Wilson-led flick available at your nearest Redbox – it’s far less indolent. Most likely, kiosks would be grouped in hubs scattered throughout cities, so their services would still require you to leave the house, which is more than can be said about online retailers like Amazon.com (NASDAQ: AMZN) or e Bay (NASDAQ: EBAY). Though Coinstar is most known for its aptly named Coinstar and Redbox kiosks, the company is hard at work to expand its empire of automated machines. In fact, it has recently teamed up with Starbucks (NASDAQ: SBUX) to build around fifty prototype coffee dispensers that serve piping hot Seattle’s Best brew with a cheery robotic smile. Moreover, Coinstar is developing a host of other kiosks including: (1) the Star Studio photo booth, (2) a refurbished electronic dealer named Gizmo, (3) a gift card exchange system called Alula, and (4) a fresh food dispensary. Execs have touted that by 2015, the company’s retail partners Kroger (NYSE: KR), Walgreen’s (NYSE: WAG), and Wal-Mart (NYSE: WMT) will have each of these kiosks at their entrances. From a revenue standpoint, Coinstar’s first two machines have been quite a success, with most growth coming from its Redbox movie rental service. Over the past three years, the average revenue per Redbox kiosk has increased from $3,500 a month to $4,200 a month."

"text": "In the late 20 th century, coffee was merely a beverage, not a lifestyle brand with its own inescapable culture. Then Starbucks ( SBUX) began spreading across the United States and the entire world, and neither caffeine delivery nor the retail real estate industry would ever be the same again. Whether you’re a loyal Starbucks customer or not, you’re probably familiar with the broad strokes of the company’s history. Starbucks was founded in Seattle in 1971, expanded to a few dozen stores (in Seattle, Vancouver, and Chicago) by the late 1980s, then metastasized seemingly overnight into a 25,000-store colossus. ( See also: Starbucks to Provide 100 Million Healthy Coffee Trees By 2025 (SBUX) ). Beans, Water, and Fire The Starbucks concept is about as low-tech as modern business gets, and the corresponding margins are delicious. Even an unadorned black coffee at Starbucks sells for quadruple its underlying costs. So what’s the company’s secret, and how did a glorified neighborhood espresso bar invade 70 countries and turn the consumption of coffee an activity unto itself and an $86 billion business? From Humble Beginnings The company divides its operations primarily geographically, into the Americas; Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA); China/Asia Pacific; and something called Channel Development, which the corporate-speak way of saying “everything other than retail stores.” Channel Development includes the packaged ground coffee you get at the supermarket, and the single-serving Frappucino bottles at the convenience store."

"text": "What Spiking Coffee Bean Prices Mean for Starbucks' and Green Mountain's Stock Prices Arabica coffee futures increased 50% in just a few months; some analysts say the price could go higher. Should investors be worried? Ted Cooper ( twcooper)Feb 24, 2014 at 4:15PMThe price of arabica coffee -- the bean used by Starbucks ( NASDAQ: SBUX), Green Mountain Coffee Roasters ( NASDAQ: GMCR), and most other coffee retailers to make coffee -- is shooting through the roof. After trading as low as $1 per pound in November, the arabica price has since spiked to $1.50 per pound, and some analysts say it could go as high as $2 per pound in the months ahead. The price spike was caused by speculators who reacted to a prolonged drought in Brazil. The hot and dry weather could not have come at a worse time; the beans are still in the crucial early stages of development. Moreover, Brazil is responsible for one-third of the world's coffee production. Significant production losses in Brazil could cause the arabica supply to fall short of demand. Effects of high arabica price This is not the first time that coffee prices have suddenly spiked. In 2011, arabica futures spiked to a high of $2.82 per pound, causing coffee brewers to pay more for coffee beans."

"text": "The Street Contributor We deliver real-time market coverage and stock analysis for investors Opinions expressed by Forbes Contributors are their own.6/11/2012 @ 1:04PM 82,733 views10 Century-Old Blue Chip Stocks Still Earning Their Keep A generation ago, wealthy families built portfolios chock-a-block with blue chip stocks such as General Motors (GM) and passed them on to their progeny as part of the family trust. But that investment approach has mostly been turned on its head in the past 40 years as the buy-and-hold investing strategy of old faded, the list of blue chips got shuffled, and technology stocks led the markets. But given the uncertainties of investing today, particularly for those approaching retirement, it may be time to revisit what had been considered a fuddy-duddy strategy. Some of the top blue chip stocks of yesteryear are still some of the best investments now as they have proven they can weather any economic environment and continue to pay steady dividends and grind out long-term share price returns. That group includes some sedate consumer staples stocks, such as cereal makers General Mills (GIS) and Kellogg (K), and ketchup and relish maker H. J. Heinz (HNZ). But their records now looks appealing, especially when compared to what’s happened to some of their old peers, many that faded along with their industries due to changing technologies or shifting consumer tastes.

And then there’s GM, which filed for bankruptcy in 2009, wiping out the stakes of a lot of long-term investors before getting a government bailout.

"text": "\"Kite Pharma Reaches Analyst Target Price March 02, 2017, 09:19:22 AM EDT By ETFChannel.com, BNK Invest Shutterstock photo In recent trading, shares of Kite Pharma Inc (Symbol: KITE) have crossed above the average analyst 12-month target price of $70.82, changing hands for $79.62/share. When a stock reaches the target an analyst has set, the analyst logically has two ways to react: downgrade on valuation, or, re-adjust their target price to a higher level. Analyst reaction may also depend on the fundamental business developments that may be responsible for driving the stock price higher - if things are looking up for the company, perhaps it is time for that target price to be raised. There are 11 different analyst targets contributing to that average for Kite Pharma Inc, but the average is just that - a mathematical average. There are analysts with lower targets than the average, including one looking for a price of $46.00. And then on the other side of the spectrum one analyst has a target as high as $80.00. The standard deviation is $10.371. But the whole reason to look at the average KITE price target in the first place is to tap into a \"\"wisdom of crowds\"\" effort, putting together the contributions of all the individual minds who contributed to the ultimate number, as opposed to what just one particular expert believes. And so with KITE crossing above that average target price of $70.82/share, investors in KITE have been given a good signal to spend fresh time assessing the company and deciding for themselves: is $70.82 just one stop on the way to an even higher target, or has the valuation gotten stretched to the point where it is time to think about taking some chips off the table? Below is a table showing the current thinking of the analysts that cover Kite Pharma Inc: Recent KITE Analyst Ratings Breakdown Current 1 Month Ago 2 Month Ago 3 Month Ago Strong buy ratings: 9 9 8 7Buy ratings: 1 1 1 1Hold ratings: 3 1 1 1Sell ratings: 0 0 0 0Strong sell ratings: 0 0 0 0Average rating: 1.54 1.27 1.3 1.33The average rating presented in the last row of the above table above is from 1 to 5 where 1 is Strong Buy and 5 is Strong Sell."

Wang | 07-11-03 | 06:00 AM | Email Article Dear Analyst,Morningstar cites a fair market value for stocks. Is it reasonable to use this value as a target price for purchasing stocks and a selling price later when this value is reached? About the Author Debbie Wang is a senior equity analyst for Morningstar. Contact Author | Meet other investing specialists A. G. Readers often ask us how to use the fair value estimates we generate for the stocks we cover. It's a good question that deserves further explanation, especially because the fair value estimate is one cornerstone in the Morningstar investment approach, and it can be easily confused with the \"\"target price\"\" that Wall Street brokerage houses (also known as the \"\"sell-side\"\") often issue in their research reports. A Subtle, but Important Difference There is a key difference between the two prices: The Morningstar fair value is based on how much we believe the stock is worth, while a target price estimates how much other investors are willing to pay for the stock. This divergence emerges because we at Morningstar tend to assess stocks differently than Wall Street evaluates them. Morningstar's fair value estimates aren't meant to be automatic buy or sell indicators. To determine reasonable buy and sell prices, we look at a stock's margin of safety."

Ogg October 27, 2014 7:30 am ESTPrint Email Tweet 0Post This week will mark the end of the analyst quiet period for Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. (NYSE: BABA). Some analysts have still issued brokerage firm reports ahead of the formal underwriters’ analysts. 24/7 Wall St. wanted to see how the preliminary group of analysts have issued their ratings. Keep in mind that Alibaba’s initial public offering (IPO) price was $68 and shares started trading on September 19. The shares opened at $92.70 on the first day of trading, and Alibaba raised some $21.8 billion in the largest ever U. S. IPO, with the deal being closer to $25 billion if underwriters wanted to exercise the overallotment option in full. Alibaba closed at $95.76 on Friday, October 25, against a post-IPO range of $82.81 to $99.70. We have included firm-by-firm analyst coverage, which includes a price target, relative share prices at the time and color if available. ALSO READ: IPO Week Ahead: Shell MLP Leads the Way Bank of America Merrill Lynch initiated its coverage of Alibaba with a Buy rating, and it assigned a $112 price objective on October 17, with shares trading around $88 at the time. The firm talked up Alibaba’s platform strategy and network effect with a stable monetization rate offsetting a mix shift to lower-tax-rate mobile channel. Barclays initiated Alibaba with an Overweight rating and price target of $107, due to its leading online commerce ecosystem having a combined 80% market share in C2C and B2C segments."

"text": "Coffee Beans: A Market To Watch In 2014By Nat Rudarakanchana @natrudy On 10/23/13 AT 6:21 AMCoffee is a commodities market to watch late this year and into 2014, as historically low coffee bean prices should reach a bottom and revive investor interest, according to one commodities expert. Prices have declined from recent highs of about $2 per pound, and now trade in the range of $1.15 to $1.20 on the New York ICE Futures exchange. “ You really have to look at the market and see if this is the bottoming,” Carlos Sanchez, director of asset management at CPM Group, told International Business Times, referring to recent historic lows in Arabica coffee bean prices. “ It’s something to look out for, a bottom over the next six months.” Growing demand in emerging markets like China, India and Brazil bode well for coffee beans over the long term, even though coffee companies like Starbucks Corporation (NASDAQ: SBUX) have saturated developed economies. “ With rising wealth, and increased consumption of commodities, in developing markets … companies like Starbucks and other providers of coffee are trying to increase their market share,” said Sanchez. “ That’s just going to continue until, perhaps, you see the situation here where almost every town, or every other town, has a Starbucks.” Steadily rising demand, combined with limited supply from South American countries, particularly Brazil, where coffee farmers have slowly cut back to favor more profitable crops, will drive dynamics over the next few years, he said. To be sure, bumper harvests this year in Brazil, the world’s largest supplier of Arabica coffee beans, have helped prices plunge this year. Supply has outpaced demand in 2013, but it’s unclear how long that can last, said Sanchez."

Numerous controlled clinical studies of treatments used by chiropractors have been conducted, with conflicting results.

The entry criteria, structure, teaching methodology and nature of chiropractic programs offered at chiropractic schools vary considerably around the world. [ 2]According to a 2005 guideline by the World Health Organization (WHO), regardless of the model of education utilized, prospective chiropractors without relevant prior health care education or experience must spend no less than 4200 student/teacher contact hours (or the equivalent) in four years of full‐time education.

Petroleum engineering is the application of chemistry, physics, math, geology, and engineering principles to discover a cost-effective way to identify promising areas for exploration, access this natural resource, and refine it into desirable products. Chemists in the oil and petroleum industry work with crude oil and the products derived from it. The industry is divided into both “upstream” and “downstream” parts, depending on how far away from the well the work is. The upstream activities include exploration and production and the downstream activities include refining and marketing comprise the petroleum industry. This industry needs chemical engineers, organic, analytical, inorganic, physical chemists, biochemists, and geochemists, as well as experts in tracer chemistry, informatics, and more. Biochemistry is important in the production of oil because bacteria change the quality of oil over time, interfering with production and causing downstream corrosion problems and toxic hazards, for example. Inorganic chemists, organic chemists, analytical chemists, and chemical engineers all play a role in catalyst science, technology, and development, which is crucial for the petroleum and petrochemical industries. There is a green side to petroleum chemistry as well."

This was what Africanews, an African news website, recently said. “South Africa’s opposition parties are in protest of President Jacob Zuma’s salary increase. They say he does not deserve it,” the website claimed. “Zuma will now earn close to $200,000 a month, following approval by Parliament last week. ”But the numbers are off, by a long way. South Africa’s parliament voted to increase Zuma’s salary to R2,716,798 per year on 10 March. So he can budget on about R226,000 per month. This works out to $14,084 at the current exchange rate – 14 times less than the $200,000 reported by Africanews."

Then they know exactly what the lab is saying when a compound is reported as not present. This is especially true for detailed site assessments, risk assessments, and statistic-based site monitoring.

"text": "\" (forthcoming in The Routledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy)Holism, Mental and Semantic Ned Block Department of Philosophy New York University Abstract Mental (or semantic) holism is the doctrine that the identity of a belief content (or the meaning of a sentence that expresses it) is determined by its place in the web of beliefs or sentences comprising a whole theory or group of theories. It can be contrasted with two other views: atomism and molecularism. Molecularism characterizes meaning and content in terms of relatively small parts of the web in a way that allows many different theories to share those parts. For example, the meaning of 'chase' might be said by a molecularist to be try to catch. Atomism characterizes meaning and content in terms of none of the web; it says that sentences and beliefs have meaning or content independently of their relations to other sentences or beliefs. One major motivation for holism has come from reflections on the natures of confirmation and learning. As Quine (1953) observed, claims about the world are confirmed not individually, but only in conjunction with theories of which they are a part. And typically, one cannot come to understand scientific claims without understanding a significant chunk of the theory of which they are a part. For example, in learning the Newtonian concepts of 'force', 'mass', kinetic energy' and 'momentum', one doesn't learn any definitions of these terms in terms that are understood beforehand, for there are no such definitions. Rather, these theoretical terms were all learned together in conjunction with procedures for solving problems."

"text": "Aristotle's Logic First published Sat Mar 18, 2000; substantive revision Fri Feb 17, 2017Aristotle’s logic, especially his theory of the syllogism, has had an unparalleled influence on the history of Western thought. It did not always hold this position: in the Hellenistic period, Stoic logic, and in particular the work of Chrysippus, took pride of place. However, in later antiquity, following the work of Aristotelian Commentators, Aristotle’s logic became dominant, and Aristotelian logic was what was transmitted to the Arabic and the Latin medieval traditions, while the works of Chrysippus have not survived. This unique historical position has not always contributed to the understanding of Aristotle’s logical works. Kant thought that Aristotle had discovered everything there was to know about logic, and the historian of logic Prantl drew the corollary that any logician after Aristotle who said anything new was confused, stupid, or perverse. During the rise of modern formal logic following Frege and Peirce, adherents of Traditional Logic (seen as the descendant of Aristotelian Logic) and the new mathematical logic tended to see one another as rivals, with incompatible notions of logic. More recent scholarship has often applied the very techniques of mathematical logic to Aristotle’s theories, revealing (in the opinion of many) a number of similarities of approach and interest between Aristotle and modern logicians. This article is written from the latter perspective. As such, it is about Aristotle’s logic, which is not always the same thing as what has been called “Aristotelian” logic.1. Introduction2."

"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": "\"share Kant and Mathematical Knowledge© Thomas J. Mc Farlane 1995www.integralscience.org Reason, or the ratio of all we have already known, is not the same that it shall be when we know more.-William Blake [31]In the Preface to the Second Edition of the Critique of Pure Reason, Kant proposes to save metaphysics from its random groping by instigating a revolution analogous to those which set mathematics and physics upon the secure path of science. The true method, he claims, rests in the realization that reason can only have certain knowledge of that which is necessarily presupposed a priori by reason itself. In particular, the objective validity of mathematical knowledge according to Kant rests on the fact that it is based on the a priori forms of our sensibility which condition the possibility of experience. Mathematical developments in the past two hundred years, however, have challenged Kant's theory of mathematical knowledge in fundamental respects. In this paper I will critically examine the challenges non-Euclidean geometry poses to Kant's theory and then, in light of this analysis, briefly speculate on how we might understand the foundations of mathematical knowledge. Before we enter into the details of criticism, however, we must first examine Kant's view of mathematical knowledge in some of its details. This discussion will introduce important elements of Kant's theory which will be relevant to the criticism which follows. To explain the secure method of science which is the secret of mathematical certainty, Kant offers us the example of demonstrating the properties of the isosceles triangle. The procedure is not to empirically examine an imperfect sketch or drawing. Nor is it to just think about the definition."

The process of mining and extraction of useful information from the existing data is an interdisciplinary work involving mathematicians, statisticians, computer programmers. Data Mining Data Mining Definition The proper use of the term data mining is data discovery. But the term is used commonly for collection, extraction, warehousing, analysis, statistics, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and business intelligence. Statistics provide sufficient tools for data analysis and machine learning deals with the different learning methodologies."

In mathematics, a divergent series is an infinite series that is not convergent, meaning that the infinite sequence of the partial sums of the series does not have a finite limit. If a series converges, the individual terms of the series must approach zero. Thus any series in which the individual terms do not approach zero diverges. However, convergence is a stronger condition: not all series whose terms approach zero converge."

"text": "\"CHAPTER 8Verificationism Overview According to the Verification theory, a sentence is meaningful just in case its being true would make some difference to the course of our future experience; an experientially unverifiable sentence or \"\"sentence\"\" is meaningless. More specifically, a sentence’s particular meaning is its verification condition, the set of possible experiences on someone’s part that would tend to show that the sentence was true. The theory faces a number of objections: It has ruled a number of clearly meaningful sentences meaningless, and vice versa; it has assigned the wrong meanings to sentences that it does count as meaningful; and it has some dubious presuppositions. But the worst objection is that, as Duhem and Quine have argued, individual sentences do not have distinctive verification conditions of their own. Quine went on to bite that bullet and infer that individual sentences do not have meanings; there is no such thing as sentence meaning. Quine also attacked the formerly widespread view that some sentences are \"\"analytic\"\" in the sense of being true by definition, or solely in virtue of the meanings of their component terms. The theory and its motivation The Verification theory of meaning, which flourished in the 1930s and -40s, was a highly political theory of meaning. It was motivated by, and reciprocally helped to motivate, a growing empiricism and scientism in philosophy and in other disciplines. In particular, it was the engine that drove the philosophical movement of Logical Positivism, which was correctly perceived by moral philosophers, poets, theologians and many others as directly attacking the foundations of their respective enterprises. Unlike most philosophical theories, it also had numerous powerful effects on the actual practice of science, both very good effects and very bad."

Loosely defined, an analytic proposition is a proposition the negation of which is self-contradictory, or a proposition that is true in every conceivable world, or a proposition that is true by definition. For example, All white cats are white is not only true, but also necessarily true — since a negation of it — \"\"Not all white cats are white\"\" is self-contradictory. The statement Vegetarians don't eat meatis true by virtue of the meanings of its words, and it doesn't make sense to think of going out and studying the behaviour of vegetarians to see whether it's true or not. Statements that aren't analytic — that is, whose truth or falsity cannot be established by reflecting on their meaning — are termed synthetic; see synthetic proposition. There is no single, generally accepted, precise definition for analytic proposition, but philosophers have proposed a small number of closely related definitions, some of which are presented in the remainder of this article. The term was first defined by Immanuel Kant ( 1724 – 1804 ): Either the predicate B belongs to subject A, as something which is contained (though covertly) in the conception of A; or the predicate B lies entirely out of the conception of A, although it stands in connection with it. In the first instance, I term the judgement analytical, in the second, synthetical. Analytical judgements (affirmative) are therefore those in which the connection of the predicate with the subject is cogitated through identity; those in which this connection is cogitated without identity, are called synthetical judgments. -- ( From the Introduction to The Critique of Pure Reason . )"

If you’re wracking your brain now, you’re not alone. It’s a rare situation to run into. Analytics professionals like being on top of things, which means sometimes when we hear something new in a conversation we just nod and make a mental note to look it up later. And then work gets busy and before we know it we’re resolving to just do our best to pick up said buzzword through context clues in other conversations. This all-too-familiar scenario is why I’ve decided to just answer the question that everyone is thinking, “so what is data discovery anyway?” After all, if one of the versions of data discovery out there keeps being touted as “the end of traditional BI,” we should probably get some clarity on it, right? Of course that statement is a bit hyperbolic, but it still can’t hurt to have a solid definition of data discovery and five key facts focused on how it can work with, not against, our traditional BI environments. Sound like a plan?"

"text": "\"Understanding the Analytical Essay Definition Analytical essays come up often as writing assignments and term papers. Unfortunately many students find them difficult or intimidating, and don't perform their best when writing one. Of course some people just find that style of writing difficult, but often the problem is simply not understanding exactly what's required. It can help to understand the definition of an analytical essay, because then you have a better idea of what the markers will be looking for. An analytical essay is a type of academic writing which separates out facts so the reader can understand them more easily, and discusses what these facts mean. It usually reaches a conclusion based on the discussion of the facts, and tries to persuade the reader to agree with that conclusion. Understanding this definition properly needs another definition; academic writing. Academic writing is a style of writing that is used to pass on information in a reliable way. It should not include unsupported opinions, but should be based on facts. There are often strict rules about providing references so that readers can check you have used reliable sources and not misquoted them."

"text": "\"How Do Reflective Essays Differ From Analytical Essays? Neil Kokemuller Reflective and analytical essays are commonly assigned in high school and college classes. While most essays involve formulating thoughts, organizing them effectively in written form and making points, the nature of these essays varies. Analytical essays generally argue a point or perspective, while reflective essays look back on experiences and behaviors. Perspective Versus Reflection A key difference between reflective and analytical essay is that a reflective essay involves looking back, or reflecting on, prior experiences and behaviors. The assignment is often to describe a particular life experience, time frame or circumstance, according to the De Paul University writing center. You outline the central events; your insights, decisions, and behaviors; and what you learned from the experience. An analytical essay is about perspective. You analyze a controversial or debatable topic and provide support for your particular point of view. Style Though you can write reflective and analytical essays in very similar styles, analytical essays tend to have a more formal, professional style."

The central structure of an experience is its intentionality, its being directed toward something, as it is an experience of or about some object. An experience is directed toward an object by virtue of its content or meaning (which represents the object) together with appropriate enabling conditions. Phenomenology as a discipline is distinct from but related to other key disciplines in philosophy, such as ontology, epistemology, logic, and ethics. Phenomenology has been practiced in various guises for centuries, but it came into its own in the early 20th century in the works of Husserl, Heidegger, Sartre, Merleau-Ponty and others.

In the simplest terms, engineering economy is a collection of mathematical techniques which simplify economic comparisons. With these techniques, a rational, meaningful approach to evaluating the economic aspects of different methods of accomplishing a given objective can be developed. Engineering economy is, therefore, a decision assistance tool by which one method will be chosen as the most economical one. In order for you to be able to apply the techniques, however, it is necessary for you to understand the basic terminology and fundamental concepts that form the foundation for engineering-economy studies.

"text": "\"Peer Review Integrative Learning and Assessment By: Ross Miller Integrative learning is an ambitious student learning goal, long espoused in higher education and in the world at large. It is also a goal that for too long has depended upon serendipity rather than planning in its achievement and is often not included as an element in assessments. But if a college or university is committed to integrative learning as an expected outcome, it must create intentional approaches to providing integrative experiences and assessing the quality of student integrative achievement. For learning in virtually all disciplinary and skill areas, as high levels of achievement are reached, discrimination of levels of quality becomes increasingly difficult. What is good writing or a good musical performance according to one expert is, according to another, average or poor. Such differences in assessment may derive from tacit differences in standards or the elements considered during the assessment--differences that must be resolved for more consistent judgments to be made. Evaluation experts pursue reliability in measurement through clear definitions, training of evaluators, and well-designed problems that elicit evidence of learning. Approaching the intentional achievement and assessment of integrative learning (or any other complex learning outcome) requires similar care. Those fostering the learning should agree upon clear definitions and desired outcomes and share their expectations with learners; create engaging, authentic assignments ripe with integrative possibilities to gather evidence of student accomplishment; and hone their skills of discrimination and explanation to provide meaningful formative and summative feedback to students. As with any complex learning, repeated experiences over time, with expert formative feedback, are likely needed to foster integrative learning. ("

"text": "Types of Literature Published on: Jan 26 2011 by Shenron Literature according to oxford dictionary is a piece or pieces of writing that are valued as work of arts such as novels, poems and plays. Literally, literature is defined as ‘acquaintance with letters’. It is known as the art of written work. Different civilizations have their own literature. For instance, we can find several literature types in different parts of the world such as English literature, Greek, Latin, Roman, African, Indian, American, French, Irish, Spain, Chinese, Italian, Japanese, Persian, Sanskrit, Nepali, Russian and Canadian literature. Literature rules the mind of the readers. It has a great influence on the readers mind. Italian literature includes the age of Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci, while Greek literature is all about Greek Gods and Goddesses. Similarly, in English literature we can see Romanticism of Wordsworth which is all about nature and is in complete contrast to classicism. Literature don’t remain the same, it keeps on changing according to the age and time."

"text": "Definitions First published Thu Apr 10, 2008; substantive revision Mon Apr 20, 2015Definitions have interested philosophers since ancient times. Plato’s early dialogues portray Socrates raising questions about definitions (e.g., in the Euthyphro, “What is piety?”)—questions that seem at once profound and elusive. The key step in Anselm’s “Ontological Proof” for the existence of God is the definition of “God,” and the same holds of Descartes’s version of the argument in his Meditation V. More recently, the Frege-Russell definition of number and Tarski’s definition of truth have exercised a formative influence on a wide range of contemporary philosophical debates. In all these cases—and many others can be cited—not only have particular definitions been debated; the nature of, and demands on, definitions have also been debated. Some of these debates can be settled by making requisite distinctions, for definitions are not all of one kind: definitions serve a variety of functions, and their general character varies with function. Some other debates, however, are not so easily settled, as they involve contentious philosophical ideas such as essence, concept, and meaning.1. Some varieties of definition1.1 Real and nominal definitions1.2 Dictionary definitions1.3 Stipulative definitions1.4 Descriptive definitions1.5 Explicative definitions1.6 Ostensive definitions1.7 A remark2. The logic of definitions2.1 Two criteria2.2 Foundations of the traditional account2.3 Conservativeness and eliminability2.4 Definitions in normal form2.5 Implicit definitions2.6 Vicious-Circle Principle2.7 Circular definitions Bibliography Academic Tools Other Internet Resources Related Entries1. Some varieties of definition Ordinary discourse recognizes several different kinds of things as possible objects of definition, and it recognizes several kinds of activity as defining a thing. To give a few examples, we speak of a commission as defining the boundary between two nations; of the Supreme Court as defining, through its rulings, “person” and “citizen”; of a chemist as discovering the definition of gold, and the lexicographer, that of ‘cool’; of a participant in a debate as defining the point at issue; and of a mathematician as laying down the definition of “group.”"

Whether you have to write 1,000 words or just 500, saying everything you need to say in a concise, intelligent, and appropriate manner isn’t easy for everyone. In fact, it can be incredibly frustrating. And while every school asks different essay questions, there’s one question you’re almost guaranteed to see, “What are your short-term and long-term post-MBA career coals and how will School X help you achieve these goals?”The career goals essay is one of the most common and also most difficult essay questions. On the surface, it seems simple, but there’s a lot of work required if you want to wow the admissions committee (adcom). It all starts with the question. Breaking Down the MBA Career Goals Essay Before you can write your career goals essay, you have to break it down into digestible and answerable pieces.

"text": "Using Rubrics to Evaluate Written Work Students need to know how instructors assign grades on essay exams, term papers, or lab write-ups for the assessment exercises to be useful learning experiences. Instructors must be able to explain how they arrived at the grade they have assigned to a piece of written work in order to avoid concerns about capricious grading. The use of a grading rubric by instructors addresses both of these demands. A grading rubric is nothing more than an instructor's explicit statement of his or her expectations for student responses at various levels of achievement. How does an “A” lab report differ from a “B” or a “C” report? What does a “B-“ paper have that a “C+” paper doesn’t? When developing grading rubrics, you must think through each expectation and identify clear and observable elements of content, style, and quality that can be recognized in student responses. It’s generally good practice for instructors to distribute the grading rubric along with the written assignment so as to make their expectations clear and to inform students of the grading process. Although some criticize the sharing of a rubric as “giving the answer away” to the students, actually it is simply helping the students know what you expect. After all, students are not mind readers."

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

This assignment attempts to show how Gardner and Sternberg drew similar conclusion regarding human capacity and potential, examine Gardner's eight intelligences and Sternberg's three kinds of intelligences (Vardin, 2003). I choose these theories because they are alike to some extent as well as that they are very famous and comprehensive these days. Some countries have made in the application of the schools and succeeded in doing so as USA (infed.org/thinkers/et-schon-htm-49k.). I choose Gardner`s theory in a particular because it supports that each person has a unique profile of intelligences but to varying degrees from others. Gardner said that intelligences are not only hereditary, but they also become acquired, so that we can strengthen the strong points and do not lose hope of the weakness points but work to raise them (Gardner ,1997 )."

"text": "European Journal of Education and Psychology Volume 8, Issue 2, December 2015, Pages 76-84open access Successful intelligence: A model for testing intelligence beyond IQ tests La Inteligencia Exitosa: Un Modelo para evaluar la Inteligencia más allá de los test de Cociente Intelectual (CI)Robert J. Sternberg Show morehttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejeps.2015.09.004 Get rights and content Open Access funded by Asociación Universitaria de Educación y Psicología Under a Creative Commons license Abstract Standard conventional tests only assess a narrow sampling of the abilities required for success in school and in life. In contrast, the augmented theory of successful intelligence asserts that intelligence involves creative skills in producing new ideas, analytical skills in evaluating whether the ideas are good ones, practical skills in putting the ideas into practice and in convincing other people of the value of the ideas, and wisdom-based skills in confirming that one is using one's knowledge and skills to serve a common good. Three projects were created to evaluate the theory with regard to college admissions: First, the Rainbow Project demonstrated that prediction of first-year college academic performance could be increased while simultaneously decreasing differences between ethnic groups on a predictive assessment, in comparison with the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT). Second, the Kaleidoscope Project improved prediction of academic and extracurricular performance over SAT scores alone; but the ethnic-group differences usually obtained vanished. Third, the Panorama Project showed the success of similar techniques in a less selective population. The projects demonstrate the application of the augmented theory of successful intelligence in enhancing college and university admissions procedures. Resumen Las pruebas estandarizadas convencionales, evalúan sólo una muestra de las amplias habilidades requeridas para conseguir éxito en la escuela y en la vida. En contraste, la teoría aumentada de la inteligencia exitosa afirma, que la inteligencia implica habilidades creativas en la producción de nuevas ideas, habilidades analíticas para evaluar si las ideas son buenas, habilidades prácticas para implementar las ideas en la práctica y para convencer a otras personas sobre el valor de las ideas, y habilidades basadas en la sabiduría para confirmar que uno está utilizando sus conocimientos y habilidades para servir a un bien común. Se crearon tres proyectos para evaluar la teoría respecto al acceso a la universidad. En primer lugar, el Proyecto Rainbow (Arco Iris) demostró que la predicción del primer año de rendimiento académico en la universidad se podría aumentar; al mismo tiempo, se puede conseguir la disminución de diferencias entre los grupos étnicos en una evaluación predictiva, en comparación con la prueba de acceso a la Universidad."

Although world cotton production is dominated by China, India and the US, cotton is vital for the survival of many low income countries in Central and West Asia and Africa – it accounts, in value terms, for 26.4 per cent of Benin’s exports and 58.7 per cent of Burkina Faso’s. Cotton farmers in developing countries, including leading producers like India and China, live in hardship. As many as 100 million households are directly engaged in cotton production and an estimated 300 million people work in the cotton sector when family labour, farm labour and workers in ancillary services such as transportation, ginning, baling and storage are taken into account. For farmers, the challenges range from the impact of climate change, poor prices for seed cotton, through to competition from highly subsidised producers in rich countries and poor terms of trade. In particular, government subsidies for cotton farmers in rich countries, particularly the US, create a market with artificially low prices that small-scale farmers are unable to compete in. Fairtrade cotton was launched to put the spotlight on these farmers who are often left invisible, neglected and poor at the end of a long and complex cotton supply chain. Through tools like the Fairtrade Minimum Price and an additional Fairtrade Premium and stronger, more democratic organisations, Fairtrade has sought to provide these farmers with an alternative route to trade and higher, more stable incomes. The Fairtrade Cotton Briefing provides a detailed overview of the cotton industry and its challenges, and explores why Fairtrade is needed and what it can achieve.

In terms of total Super Bowl ad spending, Frito-Lay CMO Ram Krishnan told Adweek that digital would take up 40% of the budget because “that's where consumers are having conversations. ”As far as it's digital strategy, Krishnan told Adweek the company would be making use of multiple social media platforms, and mentioned Twitter and Snapchat. Dive Insight: Pepsi Chief Marketing Officer Seth Kaufman told Business Insider that part of Pepsi’s strategy is to have conversations on different platforms throughout the game, explaining, “It’s now a two-way conversation between the brand and the consumer. \"\" An Ad Parlor survey from December about Super Bowl marketing backs that point up. The survey found one-third planned on only marketing via social media to avoid the expensive Super Bowl TV spots. Kaufman and Krishnan also pointed out Super Bowl marketing has evolved past just TV ads because people consume media in different ways in today’s multi-screen age. \"\" The generation Z consumers are now our core target — most consumers are already digitally native and they’re content creators. They have their own social networks,\"\" Krishnan told Business Insider. Along with its digital strategy and TV spots, Pepsi will also have in-stadium marketing planned at the game and is sponsoring the halftime show featuring Coldplay and Beyonce."

He was standing over the first Christian martyr Stephen looking on as Stephen was stoned to death. From this gruesome introduction to the completion of his missionary journeys Paul has become a champion and hero in the Christian faith. Saul – The Persecutor of the Church Before becoming the great missionary evangelist, Paul was known as Saul the persecutor of the Christian church. As a devout Jew Saul sought to quiet the quickly growing movement of men and women who followed Jesus Christ. He had permission from the High Priest to persecute those found worshiping the Lord (Acts 9:1, 2). Jesus did not tell Saul everything that would happen in his life in the future, only the next step. Saul obeyed. Saul Meets Christ and the Christians Saul met the Lord on his way to Damascus to persecute the Christians in Acts chapter 9.

D. 67 The first persecution of the Church took place in the year 67, under Nero, the sixth emperor of Rome. This monarch reigned for the space of five years, with tolerable credit to himself, but then gave way to the greatest extravagancy of temper, and to the most atrocious barbarities. Among other diabolical whims, he ordered that the city of Rome should be set on fire, which order was executed by his officers, guards, and servants. While the imperial city was in flames, he went up to the tower of Macaenas, played upon his harp, sung the song of the burning of Troy, and openly declared that 'he wished the ruin of all things before his death.' Besides the noble pile, called the Circus, many other palaces and houses were consumed; several thousands perished in the flames, were smothered in the smoke, or buried beneath the ruins. This dreadful conflagration continued nine days; when Nero, finding that his conduct was greatly blamed, and a severe odium cast upon him, determined to lay the whole upon the Christians, at once to excuse himself, and have an opportunity of glutting his sight with new cruelties. This was the occasion of the first persecution; and the barbarities exercised on the Christians were such as even excited the commiseration of the Romans themselves. Nero even refined upon cruelty, and contrived all manner of punishments for the Christians that the most infernal imagination could design. In particular, he had some sewed up in skins of wild beasts, and then worried by dogs until they expired; and others dressed in shirts made stiff with wax, fixed to axletrees, and set on fire in his gardens, in order to illuminate them. This persecution was general throughout the whole Roman Empire; but it rather increased than diminished the spirit of Christianity."

"text": "What the Bible Says about Submission in Marriage Reverence & Honor: What the Bible Says about Submission in Marriage By Betty Miller Submitting to God First Pastors Bud & Betty Miller on Submission in Marriage What is the definition of submission? It is yielding to another’s desires without resistance. Submission to another’s wishes is an attitude of the heart done willingly, while surrender is yielding by being forced to do so. Our first submission should be unto the Lord. “ Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind” (Matthew 22:37). God never forces someone to follow Him nor does He want us to be forced to follow or yield to another human being. He wants us to lovingly submit to Him and to each other. However, because of the evil in some men’s hearts a person under their authority can be abusive and a submissive person can be asked to do things that they do not believe is right. That is why the Bible also gives perimeters to submission. There are Scriptures that give us a guideline as to how far any human being is to submit to another."

( 2) The wish to have more than one possesses, inordinately, of course (pleonexia), e.g. Luke 12:15 1 Thessalonians 2:5.

"text": "\"Virginia Dare Virginia Dare is easily the Outer Banks' most famous resident, considering that a number of landmarks, locations, and attractions bear her name. From the Virginia Dare Memorial Bridge to the name of Dare County itself, This 1580s native has clearly left an undeniable impression, despite the fact that historical records suggest she was a Roanoke Island resident for less than three years. Her story, however brief, has nonetheless inspired countless works of art, literature, folklore, and even a made for TV science fiction movie, and her status as the first English child born in America has brought pride to generations of Outer Banks locals. On your next vacation, pay homage to this local legend with a crossing over the Virginia Dare Memorial Bridge, a visit to the Elizabeth II, or by heading to the Waterside Theater for a showing of The Lost Colony. Regardless of where a vacationer lands on the Outer Banks, it soon becomes apparent that Virginia Dare is everywhere, and her story and mystique lives on hundreds of years since she first arrived on the Outer Banks. History of Virginia Dare Perhaps one of the reasons that so many artists and writers have taken creative liberties with the image and story of Virginia Dare over the centuries is because so little is known about her. Virginia's history begins with the marriage of her mother, Eleanor Dare, to a local bricklayer and tiler, Ananias Dare. Eleanor and Ananias were both born in London, Eleanor in 1563 and Ananias in 1560, and were married at the historic St. Bride's Church on London's Fleet Street. ( A memorial to Virginia Dare was eventually built at the English church and can still be admired today.) Their story may have ended there, with no worldwide recognition, if it wasn't for the commission given to Eleanor's father, John White."

Throughout the entire Bible, this was the central message! John the Baptist preached the Kingdom of God, Jesus preached it, and the apostles preached it. The last question that Jesus was asked before He left the earth was, “Lord, will you at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?” The coming Kingdom of God is the message that God wants to convey to every person on earth. The crucial question is, will you be a part of it? King Over All the Earth We want everyone to understand, straight from scripture, what the kingdom of God is all about. We’re going to start in the Old Testament. “And the Lord shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one Lord, and his name one.”"

Things to Doin OBXThings to Doin OBXFind what to do in OBX. More Recruited by Sir Walter Raleigh, among these settlers was John White, his pregnant daughter, Eleanor Dare, her husband Ananias Dare, and the Indian chief Manteo, who had become an English ally during a previous visit in Britain. They unloaded their belongings and supplies and repaired an old fort previously erected on the island. On August 18, 1587, Eleanor Dare gave birth to a daughter she named Virginia, thus earning the distinction of being the first English child born on American soil. Ten days later, John White departed for England promising to return with more supplies. It was the last time he would ever see his family. Three years later, John White returned to Roanoke Island on his granddaughter’s third birthday only to find the settlement deserted, plundered and surrounded by overgrown brush. On one of the palisades, he found the single word \"\"CROATOAN\"\" carved into the surface, and the letters \"\"CRO\"\" carved into a nearby tree. White took the carving as a sign that the colonists had moved inland to Croatoan, the home of Chief Manteo’s people south of Roanoke in the Outer Banks in present-day Hatteras Island."

Answer by Marklv Confidence votes 198The word 'dago' is a derivative of the Spanish name 'Diego', which means 'James'. It was originally coined in the 17th century by British sailors to indicate Spanish or Portuguese people, especially sailors. Despite the hispanic origin of the word, in the 19th century the word 'dago' became more commonly used in the USA as a derogatory term for Italians, due to the large immigration from that country. However, it is still used to indicate Spanish or Portuguese people as well, but rarely the French. The word 'wop' is derived from 'without official papers', which was a comment that was written by US immigration officials in their records, with reference to poorer Italian immigrants who entered the USA without passports or any other means of identification. It then became a derogatory name for Italians or those of Italian origin in general, within the USA.

An Outer Banks Lexicon Photo Courtesy of Jonathan Clark. www.outerbanks.tv Our close Neighbor, Currituck County, gets its name from the Indian word Cortank, wild goose. Dare County is named for Virginia Dare, the first child of English parentage born in North America. Born August 18, 1587 in the \"\"Cittie of Raleigh\"\" on Roanoke Island to Eleanor and Ananias Dare, the fate of the child and her parents is unknown. The names Wanchese and Manteo, towns on Roanoke Island, come from those two Indian Chiefs who befriended the colonists who were to become lost forever. Both were taken to England in 1584 and returned to Roanoke Island in 1585 with the Grenville and Lane Expedition. Manteo remained a staunch friend despite ill advised actions on the part of the English which included an attack on the Indians. Wanchese's regard deteriorated and it is believed that he became somewhat hostile and downright disenchanted. Ocracoke was supposedly named after one of our more unsavory early inhabitants, the infamous Edward Teach, more widely known as Blackbeard. Blackbeard dropped anchor in the inlet to unload his booty and viewing the vast expanse of sand and water, shook his fist and yelled into the calm breeze, \"\"Oh, Crow Cock! \"\""

Look at real examples from poetry and politics, then take a quiz to test your comprehension. Definition of Anaphora Anaphora is the repetition of a certain word or phrase at the beginning of successive lines of writing or speech. It can be used in novels and short stories, but it's most commonly seen in poetry, essays, and formal speeches. Martin Luther King Jr.'s speeches and sermons are full of instances of anaphora. In the following example from his famous 'I Have a Dream' address at the March on Washington, the underlined words indicate the repeated element:' Now is the time to make real the promises of democracy. Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice. Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood. Now is the time to make justice a reality for all of God's children. '"

Device: Anaphora Origin: From the Greek ἀναφορά (anafora), meaning “to bring back” or “to carry back”. In plain English: Repetition of a word or phrase at the beginning of successive sentences or clauses. Effect: Key words or ideas are emphasized, often with great emotional pull. Repetition makes the line memorable. The speaker’s words have rhythm and cadence. Notes: In English, an active sentence (“We developed the plan.”) is more effective than a passive sentence (“The plan was developed by us.”). Thus, anaphora is particularly effective when one wishes to emphasize the subject of an action."

"text": "Definition of Repetition Repetition consists of repeating a word, phrase, or sentence, and is common in both poetry and prose. It is a rhetorical technique to add emphasis, unity, and/or power. Due to this definition of repetition, it is a common technique for orators to use. There have been examples of repetition throughout the course of human history, as it is a good way to help remember a story, particular lines of a story, or a story in song form. Thus, repetition has been an essential part of oral storytelling and can be found in legends, folk tales, and religious texts. Different Types of Repetition There are unique terms for many different types of repetition, most of them from Greek origin. Anaphora: Repetition of a word or phrase at the beginning of several subsequent lines. Martin Luther King Junior’s speech “I Have a Dream” is a famous example, as he repeats “I have a dream” at the beginning of several lines. Mesodiplosis: Repetition of a word in the middle of every line of clause. For example: “we are perplexed, but not in despair; Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed."

Newly elected Prime Minister Kevin Rudd's proposal for a national curriculum, as part of his policy statement on the future direction of Australian education, has garnered much debate in recent media. A Herald Sun opinion piece, entitled “Why should schooling change at every state border?”, was written by the Deputy Principal of Narrenwood Secondary College, Stephen Buckle, in response to this debate. Using a prudent and credible tone, Buckle argues that Australia needs to adopt a “common curriculum” in order to achieve unity across the country and thus provide students with more educational opportunities."

"text": "Repetition Definition of Repetition Repetition is a literary device that repeats the same words or phrases a few times to make an idea clearer and more memorable. There are several types of repetition commonly used in both prose and poetry. As a rhetorical device, it could be a word, a phrase, or a full sentence, or a poetical line repeated to emphasize its significance in the entire text. Repetition is not distinguished solely as a figure of speech, but more as a rhetorical device. Types of Repetition The following examples of repetition are classified according to the different types of repetition used, both in literature and in daily conversations. Anadiplosis: Repetition of the last word in a line or clause. Anaphora: Repetition of words at the start of clauses or verses. Antistasis: Repetition of words or phrases in opposite sense. Diacope: Repetition of words broken by some other words. Epanalepsis: Repetition of the same words at the beginning and the end of a sentence."

"text": "\"About Lucille Clifton Jocelyn K. Moody L ucille Sayles Clifton was born in Depew, New York, to Samuel L. and Thelma Moore Sayles. Her father worked for the New York steel mills; her mother was a launderer, homemaker, and avocational poet. Although neither parent was formally educated, they provided their large family with an appreciation and an abundance of books, especially those by African Americans. At age sixteen, Lucille entered college early, matriculating as a drama major at Howard University in Washington, D. C. Her Howard associates included such intellectuals as Sterling A. Brown, A. B. Spellman, Chloe Wofford (now Toni Morrison), who later edited her writings for Random House, and Fred Clifton, whom she married in 1958. After transferring to Fredonia State Teachers College in 1955, Clifton worked as an actor and began to cultivate in poetry the minimalist characteristics that would become her professional signature. Like other prominent Black Aesthetic poets consciously breaking with Eurocentric conventions, including Sonia Sanchez and her Howard colleague, Le Roi Jones (Amiri Baraka), Clifton developed such stylistic features as concise, untitled free verse lyrics of mostly iambic trimeter lines, occasional slant rhymes, anaphora and other forms of repetition, puns and allusions, lowercase letters, sparse punctuation, and a lean lexicon of rudimentary but evocative words. Poet Robert Hayden entered her poems into competition for the 1969 YW-YMHA Poetry Center Discovery Award. She won the award and with it the publication of her first volume of poems, Good Times. Frequently inspired by her own family, especially her six young children, Clifton's early poems are celebrations of African American ancestry, heritage, and culture. Her early publications praise African Americans for their historic resistance to oppression and their survival of economic and political racism."

Perhaps, as seen from some of the evidence we have discovered in our times, even primitive man held close to him the origins of poetry. He had, for example, the pristine sky above him filled at night with such marvelous stars, such supernumerary lanterns and sparkling bits of sky, all suspended by who knew what, right in the middle of the overwhelming darkness and space of the night -- yes, right in the middle of that stunning vacuum and depth which seemed to go out deeper and deeper and forever. These sensational ideas and thoughts perhaps ran through the inexpert mind of the primordial being hundreds of thousands of years ago, when man was not even man yet, and when man was just on the evolutionary machinery and path of becoming what he has been since about ten or twenty thousand years ago. These were surely the wonderments which captivated his mind and attention when outdoors at night. They must have been truly marvelous sights to look at in those times. Things have changed since then, and yet if we just take time when we are away from the city, or maybe even when we are in our own back yard, if we just look above us in total darkness, we will still be able to admire the depth of the starry skies which we look at. How much more marvelous must it have been for ancient and primitive man!It is the sensations that were captivated by the formative human mind that were stored genetically in the remotest depths of the unconscious, that were evolutionarily reserved in the unconscious and instinctive part of the brain and mind. These sensations of admiration and awe for the stars and the wondrous things in nature were the ones responsible for the communion and romance between the very individual and nature; between a man and the world; between a person and the universe; yes, even between a person and God himself. It was the admiration itself which was also responsible for creating the feeling and knowledge of someone or something much, much greater than ourselves."

"text": "Epistrophe Definition of Epistrophe Epistrophe is derived from a Greek word that means “turning upon,” which indicates the same word returns at the end of each sentence. Epistrophe is a stylistic device that can be defined as the repetition of phrases or words at the ends of the clauses or sentences. It is also called “ epiphora .” Epistrophe examples are frequently found in literary pieces, in persuasive writing, and in speeches. The Difference Between Anaphora and Epistrophe Anaphora is the opposite of epistrophe, and means the repetition of the same phrase or word at the beginning of successive sentences, such as in this example: Five years have passed; Five summers, with the length of Five long winters! and again I hear these waters …However, in epistrophe, the repetition of phrases or words is at the end of successive sentences such as in this example:“Hourly joys be still upon you! Juno sings her blessings on you … Scarcity and want shall shun you, Ceres’ blessing so is on you .”Examples of Epistrophe in Literature Poets have written a number of poems in regular meters, and epistropheic meter is widely used in several of them. Example #1: The Rebel (By D. J. Enright)“When everybody has short hair, The rebel lets his hair grow long. When everybody has long hair, The rebel cuts his hair short. When everybody talks during the lesson, The rebel does’n say a word."

Answer: Shock is a condition in which blood pressure is too low and not enough oxygenated blood can sustain your body. The medical disorder of shock is not the \"\"shock\"\" that people feel from a sudden traumatic event. In the United States, hospital emergency departments report more than one million cases of shock each year. There are different kinds of shock. They include: anaphylactic shock from an allergic reaction, cardiogenic shock from a heart deficiency, hypovolemic shock from bleeding, neurogenic shock from severe emotional disturbance, and septic shock from infections in your blood. The symptoms of shock include cold and sweaty skin that may be pale or gray, weak but rapid pulse, irritability, thirst, irregular breathing, dizziness, profuse sweating, fatigue, dilated pupils, lackluster eyes, anxiety, confusion, nausea, and reduced urine flow."

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

About Hives Hives (or urticaria) are red raised bumps or welts on the skin. They can appear anywhere on the body and can look like tiny little spots or large interconnected bumps. Individual hives can last anywhere from a few hours to a week (sometimes longer), and new ones might replace those that fade. Hives that stay for 6 weeks or less are called acute hives; those that go on longer than 6 weeks are chronic hives. An allergic reaction can cause hives, as can temperature extremes, stress, infections, or illnesses.

Shock Definition Shock is a medical emergency in which the organs and tissues of the body are not receiving an adequate flow of blood.

Description There are three stages of shock: Stage I (also called compensated, or nonprogressive), Stage II (also called decompensated or progressive), and Stage III (also called irreversible). In Stage I of shock, when low blood flow (perfusion) is first detected, a number of systems areactivated in order to maintain/restore perfusion. The result is that the heart beats faster, the bloodvessels throughout the body become slightly smaller in diameter, and the kidney works to retainfluid in the circulatory system. All this serves to maximize blood flow to the most importantorgans and systems in the body. The patient in this stage of shock has very few symptoms, andtreatment can completely halt any progression.

It's the bodies way of saying it is responding or reacting to something it feels or thinks is toxic (poisonous). Each wheal lasts a few hours before fading without trace. New areas may develop as old areas fade. Often the wheals join together to form larger swellings. The area of affected skin can vary in size from quite small to as large as a dinner plate.

Currently no units are completed. Emergency medical responders can range from bystanders with Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) certification to trained professional rescuers such as First Responders, EMT-Basics/Intermediates, Paramedics, Nurses, or Doctors. Usually the most important tool used by these people is their brain. In Alberta, Canada, an EMR is a trained EMS professional, as per the National Occupational Competency Profile (NOCP), equivalent to the EMT-B in the U. S. A. This is also true in British Columbia, Canada. The hierarchy of paramedics in the BC Ambulance Service is highest at the Critical Care Paramedic (CCP), followed by Advanced Life Support (ALS), the Infant Transport Team (ITT), Primary Care Paramedic (PCP), and finally Emergency Medical Responder (EMR). Preface [ edit]In general, Emergency Medical Responders are people such as police officer, firefighter or EMT that are trained to provide immediate pre hospital medical treatment to either a medical or trauma victim of accidents or disasters. EMR are not supposed to replace an EMT or Paramedic, EMR’s are only to provide enough care until the ambulance arrives. However, inn Canada, as per the NOCP of the Paramedic Association of Canada, an Emergency Medical Responder (EMR) is the first of four levels of paramedic training. The four levels are Emergency Medical Responder, Primary Care Paramedic, Advanced Care Paramedic, and Critical Care Paramedic (lowest level of training to highest level of training)."

"text": "Anaphylactic Shock: Symptoms, Causes, and Treatment Symptoms Causes and risk factors Complications See a doctor Treatment Outlook What is anaphylactic shock? When exposed to something they’re allergic to, some people experience a potentially life-threatening reaction called anaphylaxis. As a result, their immune system releases chemicals that flood the body. This can lead to anaphylactic shock. When your body goes into anaphylactic shock, your blood pressure suddenly drops and your airways narrow, possibly blocking normal breathing. This condition is dangerous. If it isn’t treated immediately, it can result in serious complications and even be fatal. Symptoms What are the symptoms of anaphylactic shock? You will experience symptoms of anaphylaxis before anaphylactic shock sets in. These symptoms shouldn’t be ignored."

Anaplasma phagocytophilum is an infection of the white blood cells that’s transmitted by the deer tick (also known as the black-legged tick) and the western black-legged tick. These are the same ticks that transmit Lyme disease, which increases the risk of coinfection with anaplasmamosis. Anaplasma phagocytophilum is also a zoonotic disease, which means it can infect people as well as pets. The other form, Anaplasma platys, is an infection of the blood platelets that can lead to bleeding disorders and is transmitted by the brown dog tick. Although these two forms of anaplasmosis present with different signs, both pose a threat to your dog’s health. What are the symptoms of Anaplasma phagocytophilum [an-uh-plaz-ma fago-cy-tof-ah-lum]? Similar to other vector-borne diseases, symptoms of Anaplasma phagocytophilum are often vague and nonspecific.

It is a vector of several zoonotic diseases, including human monocytic ehrlichiosis and Rocky Mountain spotted fever. Courtesy of the CDC/Michael L. Levin, Ph D. View Media Gallery Ehrlichia / Anaplasma are tiny (0.2-2 µm) obligate, intracytoplasmic, gram-negative organisms that resemble Rickettsia; divide by binary fission; and multiply within the cytoplasm of infected white blood cells. Clusters of Ehrlichia multiply in host monocyte vacuoles (phagosomes) to form large, mulberry-shaped aggregates called morulae. ( See Etiology. ) Ehrlichia inclusion bodies, such as morulae, are visible in the cytoplasm of infected mononuclear phagocytic cells after 5-7 days. The type of ehrlichiosis that develops varies and depends on the infecting species and the type of leukocyte infected.

These bacteria are transmitted through the bites of ticks, primarily the deer tick. Not everyone who develops symptoms of Lyme disease remembers getting bitten by a tick because the deer tick is very small and its bite can go unnoticed. Lyme disease is most common in the northeastern and upper mid-western United States. More than 90% of cases have been reported in nine states: Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Wisconsin. Even within states, there are regions of high risk and others with very low rates of disease. This variation relates to where ticks that carry the bacteria live, breed and come into contact with humans. Late spring and early summer are the peak times of the year for Lyme disease to be diagnosed. However, the condition is not always diagnosed right away."

Deer ticks infected with A. phagocytophilum are found in the New England and North Central United States while black-legged ticks infected with A. phagocytophilum are found in northern California. States reporting the highest incidence of HGA in 2001-2002 were Rhode Island, Minnesota, Connecticut, New York, and Maryland."

Anaplasmosis and Ehrlichiosis are two closely related tick-borne bacterial diseases spread by the bite of infected ticks. Anaplasmosis, formerly called human granulocytic ehrlichiosis (HGE), is spread to humans by blacklegged deer ticks infected with the bacterium, Anaplasma phagocytophilia. Ehrlichiosis, or human monocytic ehrlichiosis (HME), is spread to humans by lone star ticks infected with the bacterium, Ehrlichia chaffeensis. In New York State, most cases have been reported on Long Island and in the Hudson Valley. Who gets Anaplasmosis and Ehrlichiosis? Anaplasmosis or Ehrlichiosis can affect people of any age. Neither disease is spread from person to person. People who spend time outdoors hiking, working, or playing, particularly in grassy and wooded areas from April until October are at greatest risk for exposure. Ticks can be active any time the temperature is above freezing."

"text": "Hemogram basics A hemogram contains all of the pertinent information required for assessment of hematopoiesis as well as a visual assessment of plasma appearance and measurement of total solids (an estimate of total protein) in plasma. The hemogram can be broken down into groups depending on what we would like to evaluate: Erythrogram: This includes counts of red blood cells (RBC) and RBC mass (hematocrit), hemoglobin concentration, RBC indices (cell size, hemoglobin content), RBC size variation (red cell distribution width or RDW), reticulocyte counts (percentage or absolute), nucleated RBC count (per 100 WBC or absolute), and RBC morphologic features, including presence of parasites. Leukogram: This includes a total white blood cell (WBC) count (corrected for n RBCs) and a differential cell count of the individual leukocytes (absolute counts, but some laboratories also provide percentage counts), and WBC morphologic features, including presence of parasites. Thrombogram: This includes results for platelet numbers and size (mean platelet volume) and an estimate of platelet numbers from a blood smear (to verify any provided counts and check for clumps). Some laboratories also provide results for platelet mass (platelet crit). Plasma: In some laboratories, a measurement of total solids by refractometer (often called total protein by refractometer or total protein-ref) and a visual assessment of plasma color (hemolysis, lipemia, icterus) is provided as part of the hemogram. For creating a hemogram, we do the following tests: Measurement of cell counts: These are usually provided by automated analyzers. Red blood cell (RBC): Several different counts of mature RBC are provided including RBC mass (hematocrit [ HCT] or packed cell volume [PCV], RBC count, and hemoglobin concentration. Also, in anemic dogs and cats, immature anucleated RBC (reticulocytes) are also counted ( percentage and absolute counts) to assess for a regeneration by the bone marrow in response to the anemia. Reticulocyte counts can be done in other species, but are not usually part of a routine hemogram."

D., Duke University Medical Center, Durham, North Carolina Am Fam Physician. 2005 Jun 15;71 (12):2323-2330. Patient information: See related handout on avoiding ticks, written by the authors of this article. Tick-borne diseases in the United States include Rocky Mountain spotted fever, Lyme disease, ehrlichiosis, tularemia, babesiosis, Colorado tick fever, and relapsing fever. It is important for family physicians to consider these illnesses when patients present with influenza-like symptoms. A petechial rash initially affecting the palms and soles of the feet is associated with Rocky Mountain spotted fever, whereas erythema migrans (annular macule with central clearing) is associated with Lyme disease. Various other rashes or skin lesions accompanied by fever and influenza-like illness also may signal the presence of a tick-borne disease. Early, accurate diagnosis allows treatment that may help prevent significant morbidity and possible mortality. Because 24 to 48 hours of attachment to the host are required for infection to occur, early removal can help prevent disease. Treatment with doxycycline or tetracycline is indicated for Rocky Mountain spotted fever, Lyme disease, ehrlichiosis, and relapsing fever."

[ 1] It is a hard-bodied tick (family Ixodidae) of the eastern and northern Midwestern United States. It is a vector for several diseases of animals, including humans ( Lyme disease, babesiosis, anaplasmosis, Powassan virus disease, etc.) and is known as the deer tick owing to its habit of parasitizing the white-tailed deer. It is also known to parasitize mice, [2] lizards, [3] migratory birds, [4] etc. especially while the tick is in the larval or nymphal stage.

This study will test the blood supply for evidence of a tick-borne organism, Babesia microti, by investigational test methods developed by IMUGEN. It will be conducted under Imugen’s Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Investigational New Drug Application (IND) and will include the testing of more than 26,000 blood donor specimens from Babesia endemic and non-endemic areas to define the performance characteristics, sensitivity, and specificity of the investigational test methods for blood donor testing. Susan Stramer, Ph. D., executive scientific officer for the American Red Cross, will act as a principal investigator for the Red Cross arm of the study. Babesiosis is an emerging infectious disease transmitted to humans by the bite of a deer tick (the same deer tick that transmits Lyme disease). “ Although some individuals infected with Babesia may become quite ill, other individuals may have minimal or no symptoms,” said Stramer. “ The latter group may become blood donors and Babesia has been shown to be transmitted through transfused blood in at least 100 cases to date. ”Currently, there are no FDA licensed tests to screen blood donations for Babesia. To address this unmet need, researchers from IMUGEN have developed these tests to screen for the presence of Babesia in blood donors."

Thrombocytopenia Definition Thrombocytopenia is an abnormal drop in the number of blood cells involved in forming blood clots. These cells are called platelets. Description Thrombocytopenia is a blood disease characterized by an abnormally low number of platelets in the bloodstream. The normal amount of platelets is usually between 150,000 and 450,000 cellsper microliter of blood. A microliter is an amount equal to one one-millionth of a liter (a liter is almost equal to a quart). Platelet numbers are counted by having a blood sample collected andplacing a measured amount of blood in a machine called a cell counter. When the plateletnumber drops below 150,000 cells per microliter of blood, this person is said to be thrombocytopenic. Causes and symptoms Abnormal reductions in the number of platelets are caused when abnormalities occur in any of the following three processes: decreased platelet production by the bone marrow; increasedtrapping of platelets by the spleen; or a more rapid than normal destruction of platelets. Personswith this condition easily bruise and can have episodes of excess bleeding (a hemorrhage)."

Ewing, DVM, MS, DACVP (Anatomic and Clinical Pathology) www.angell.org/[email protected] 617 541-5014Summary Granulocytic anaplasmosis should be included on a differential diagnoses list for any cat that lives in an Ixodes spp. endemic area with potential tick exposure and that presents with acute or intermittent, vague symptoms of lethargy, anorexia and fever. In the northeastern USA, infections are most common in the months of May, June and October. Clinicopathologic findings may include anemia, neutrophilia or neutropenia, lymphopenia, hyperglycemia, hypercholesterolemia, hypoalbuminemia or hyperalbuminemia. Diagnosis of anaplasmosis is made by identification of morulae in neutrophils on peripheral blood smears, and/or positive PCR or serologic results, and response to treatment. An effective treatment is doxycycline administered orally at a dosage of 5 mg/kg once a day for 14-28 days. Prevention strategy includes limiting outdoor access, use of topical acaricides and/or tick repellents and daily tick checks. With tick-borne diseases in small animal practice, a major focus is prevention, diagnosis and treatment of these conditions in dogs. However, it is important to recognize that tick-borne diseases also occur in cats. In 2015, we published a retrospective study of granulocytic anaplasmosis in 16 cats in the northeastern USA."

Blood smear analysis allows quantitation of the different types of leukocytes (called the differential count), estimation of the platelet count, and detection of morphologic abnormalities that may be indicators of pathophysiologic processes. In some instances, a diagnosis may be evident. Deriving full value from blood smear examination requires a well-prepared, well-stained blood smear and some basic skills in the methods of assessment. For more information on how to make a good blood smear, please also refer to related links below. Though some automated hematology analyzers provide a differential count as part of their output, this does not fully take the place of a microscopic exam by an experienced observer. Components of a blood smear A well made blood smear consists of several areas: The feathered edge, the monolayer, and the body and base of the smear. All parts of the smear should be examined, however the monolayer is the area where the cells are examined in close detail and differential cell counts performed. Note that in a severely leukopenic animal, you will not find enough leukocytes within the monolayer to perform a 100 cell differential leukocyte count and you may have to use the entire smear and may not be able to count 100 leukocytes. Feathered edge of a blood smear The feathered edge This is the end of the blood smear and should be completely present and fully stained (a smear that is “too long” will lack a feathered edge)."

It occurs primarily in warm tropical and subtropical areas. The disease is not contagious but is transmitted most commonly by ticks. It can also be transmitted via contaminated needles, dehorning equipment, castrating knives, tattoo instruments, biting flies and mosquitoes. The intracellular parasite destroys red blood cells. It causes anemia, fever, weight loss, breathlessness, uncoordinated movements, abortion and death. Diagnosis is based on clinical signs and the examination of blood under microscope for evidence of the parasite. Affected cattle either die or begin a recovery within 4 days after the first signs of the disease. The mortality rate increases with the age of the animal. Unless infected cattle are detected during the early stages of the disease they should not be treated."

If reference intervals are not available, then we use the literature for guidelines on interpreting platelet counts. A decrease in platelet numbers (below the lower reference limit) is called thrombocytopenia, whereas an increase in platelet numbers (above the upper reference limit) is called a thrombocytosis. Thrombocytopenia is clinically more important than thrombocytosis because thrombocytopenia is associated with excessive hemorrhage. Guidelines as to the association between platelet count and hemorrhagic risk are given below. Thrombocytosis is usually asymptomatic (not associated with excessive hemorrhage or thrombosis in animals). Risk of hemorrhage at various platelet counts Platelet count (x 10 3 /μL)At risk of hemorrhage*Subjective assessment of platelet numbers**<10Yes (highest risk), usually spontaneous; induced by trauma or surgery Marked decrease (very low)<30Yes, can be spontaneous, induced by trauma or surgery Marked decrease (very low)30-50Yes, usually secondary to trauma or surgery; can be spontaneous if a concurrent platelet function defect Moderate decrease (low)50-100**No, unless concurrent platelet function defect Moderate decrease (low)>100**No, unless concurrent platelet function defect Mild decrease (low)* Not all animals with low platelet counts will show signs of hemorrhage. There is some thought that hemorrhage will only occur in thrombocytopenic animals if there is concurrent inflammation ( Goerge et al 2008 ). ** This is species dependent and applicable to dogs, cats, ruminants and camelids. A platelet count of 100 x 10 3 /μL is normal for a horse and would not be considered a thrombocytopenia."

Rick Alleman, DVM, Ph D, DABVP, DACVP, Heather L. Wamsley, DVM, DACVPVETERINARY MEDICINE1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Next Canine anaplasmosis is caused by one of two gram-negative, obligate, intracellular bacterial agents, Anaplasma phagocytophilum or Anaplasma platys. Infection with A. phagocytophilum, the species more commonly associated with anaplasmosis, causes lameness and is often confused with Lyme disease. Infection with A. platys results in a cyclic thrombocytopenia. Both types of anaplasmosis are likely spread by ticks and can occur worldwide. A NOTE ON CLASSIFICATIONBoth A. phagocytophilum and A. platys are in the order Rickettsiales, which includes members of the genera Ehrlichia, Anaplasma, Cowdria, Wolbachia, and Neorickettsia. In 2001, a major restructuring of the classification of organisms occurred in the order Rickettsiales. 1 As a result of these investigations, three separate species of Ehrlichia — Ehrlichia equi, Ehrlichia phagocytophila, and the previously unnamed agent causing human granulocytic ehrlichiosis—were found to be insufficiently different to warrant separate species designations. These organisms were phylogenetically most closely related to species in the genus Anaplasma, so they were reclassified as A. phagocytophilum. In addition, Ehrlichia platys was found to be more closely related to Anaplasma species and was subsequently renamed A. platys."

This story was written by Anthony Marino and Sidney Kline. ) Albert Anastasia, 55, burly, beetling Lord High Executioner of the old Murder Inc. mob, was shot to death yesterday by hired killers of his own kind in the Park Sheraton Hotel, Seventh Ave. and 55th St. he thus met a fate he feared and one he earnestly hoped would not be the lot of his family. Professional gunmen, who fired 10 bullets and hit their man with five of them, took his life in the same hotel, then called the Park Central, in which gambler Arnold Rothstein was slain a generation ago. Why? Those who should know said it was because Anastasia ordered the shooting of gambling czar Frank Costello last May 2. With the bungling of that assassination attempt, these underworld intimates said, Anastasia knew that his own life was forfeit. The killing was reminiscent of the Mafia slayings of an earlier era, when slayers left a Black Hand impression on paper somewhere on their victim's body."

Miracles During the Life of St. Irene St. Irene saves an unjustly imprisoned man A group of wicked men were jealous of a certain relative of St. Irene who was a high ranking nobleman, and was from a proud and glorious family. These men told the emperor that this nobleman sought to murder him. The emperor imprisoned him in a dark corner of the palace and considered drowning him in the sea so that nothing would be heard of him neither would he be made worthy of burial. The relatives and friends of this lord, not being able to help him in any other way, ran to St. Irene and fell down at her feet. They begged her with tears to have mercy on her beloved relative and to save him from the unjust penalty of death. Being greatly moved, our venerable mother cried and comforted his relatives and friends saying, \"\"Don't be sad, bur rather return to your homes hoping in the Lord and this same Lord will come to his aid.\"\" Our holy and God-bearing mother then went to her cell and implored the Lord to quickly come to the salvation of the unjustly condemned man. The Lord as the Lover of mankind hears the prayers of His servants and immediately came to the aid of this nobleman in a most amazing manner. During the middle of the night the emperor saw St. Irene first in his sleep and then again after he had awakened and she said to him loudly and fiercely, \"\"Get up immediately, O King, and free the man you have imprisoned unjustly, because out of jealousy did they falsely accuse him."

Originally Alix of Hesse and by Rhine at birth, she was given the Christian name and patronymic Alexandra Feodorovna upon being received into the Russian Orthodox Church and—having been put to death along with her immediate family while in Bolshevik captivity in 1918—was canonized in 2000 as Saint Alexandra the Passion Bearer. A granddaughter of Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom, Alexandra was, like her grandmother, one of the most famous royal carriers of the haemophilia disease. Her reputation for influencing her husband's resistance to the surrender of autocratic authority over the country and her known faith in the Russian mystic, Grigori Rasputin, severely damaged her popularity and that of the Romanov monarchy in its final years.

Here in a stately chateau, there lived a widowed gentleman, and his little daughter, Cinderella. Although he was a kind and devoted father, and gave his beloved child every luxury and comfort, still, he felt she needed a mother's care. And so he married again, choosing for his second wife, a woman of good family, with two daughters just Cinderella's age, by name, Anastasia and Drizella. It was upon the untimely death of this good man, however, that the stepmother's true nature was revealed: cold, cruel, and bitterly jealous of Cinderella's charm and beauty, she was grimly determined to forward the interests of her own two awkward daughters. Thus, as time went by, the chateau fell into disrepair, for the family fortunes were squandered upon the vain and selfish stepsisters while Cinderella was abused, humiliated, and finally forced to become a servant in her own house."

During the years of Communist rule nobody knew where she was buried. This led to many stories that she could have escaped and still be alive. [ 1] The bodies of the Tsar, Tsarina, and three daughters were found in a grave near Yekaterinburg in 1991; however, the bodies of Alexei Nikolaevich and one of his sisters (either Anastasia or Maria) were not there. In January 2008, Russian scientists said that the remains of a young boy and woman found near Yekaterinburg in August 2007 might be the missing bodies.

"text": "World War I1918Romanov family executed Share this:facebook twitter google+Print Cite In Yekaterinburg, Russia, Czar Nicholas II and his family are executed by the Bolsheviks, bringing an end to the three-century-old Romanov dynasty. Crowned in 1896, Nicholas was neither trained nor inclined to rule, which did not help the autocracy he sought to preserve among a people desperate for change. The disastrous outcome of the Russo-Japanese War led to the Russian Revolution of 1905, which ended only after Nicholas approved a representative assembly–the Duma –and promised constitutional reforms. The czar soon retracted these concessions and repeatedly dissolved the Duma when it opposed him, contributing to the growing public support for the Bolsheviks and other revolutionary groups. In 1914, Nicholas led his country into another costly war–World War I–that Russia was ill-prepared to win. Discontent grew as food became scarce, soldiers became war weary and devastating defeats at the hands of Germany demonstrated the ineffectiveness of Russia under Nicholas. In March 1917, revolution broke out on the streets of Petrograd (now St. Petersburg) and Nicholas was forced to abdicate his throne later that month. That November, the radical socialist Bolsheviks, led by Vladimir Lenin, seized power in Russia from the provisional government, sued for peace with the Central Powers and set about establishing the world’s first communist state. Civil war broke out in Russia in June 1918, and in July the anti-Bolshevik “White” Russian forces advanced on Yekaterinburg, where Nicholas and his family were located, during a campaign against the Bolshevik forces. Local authorities were ordered to prevent a rescue of the Romanovs, and after a secret meeting of the Yekaterinburg Soviet, a death sentence was passed on the imperial family."

"text": "Gambino Family – The most publicized of the “Five Families”The Gambino crime family is the most publicized family of the American Mafia. It’s one of “Five Families” based out of New York that dominates organized crime in the United States. The Gambino family got its name from previous boss Carlo Gambino who controlled the family from 1959 until his death in October 1976. The family got its start in the late 1800’s as the Salvatore “Toto” D’Aquila gang of Manhattan who joined the established Morello gang. They were the first Italian American gang in New York, and possibly the entire United States. Their reign lasted for twenty years until the matriarch of the family, Giuseppe Morello and his underboss, Ignazio Saietta, were sent to prison after a counterfeiting conviction. Realizing the gang was in rough shape; D’Aquila split away from the remaining members and formed his own gang in East Harlem. Using his established connections with other Mafia leaders, D’Aquila’s gang quickly became a powerful influence in New York. Early History Through a series of shifts of power from one gang to another, Salvatore “Toto” D’Aquila formed alliances with other Mafia bosses and took down the weaker gangs absorbing their rackets. From 1910-1917 D’Aguila established and reestablished the largest Italian gang in New York."

Anastasíya Nikoláyeva Románova; 18 June [ O. S. 5 June] 1901 – 17 July 1918) was the youngest daughter of Tsar Nicholas II, the last sovereign of Imperial Russia, and his wife, Tsarina Alexandra Feodorovna. Anastasia was the younger sister of Grand Duchesses Olga, Tatiana, and Maria, and was the elder sister of Alexei Nikolaevich, Tsarevich of Russia. She was murdered with her family in an extrajudicial killing by members of the Cheka, the Bolshevik secret police, at Yekaterinburg on 17 July 1918. Persistent rumors of her possible escape circulated after her death, fueled by the fact that the location of her burial was unknown during the decades of Communist rule. The mass grave near Yekaterinburg which held the remains of the Tsar, his wife, and three of their daughters was revealed in 1991, and the bodies of Alexei Nikolaevich and the remaining daughter—either Anastasia or her older sister Maria—were discovered in 2007. Her possible survival has been conclusively disproved. Forensic analysis and DNA testing confirmed that the remains are those of the imperial family, showing that all four grand duchesses were killed in 1918. ["

Her natural and unpretentious beauty and her immense acting talent made her one of the most celebrated figures in the history of American cinema. Bergman is also one of the most Oscar-awarded actresses, tied with Meryl Streep, both second only to Katharine Hepburn. Ingrid Bergman was born on August 29, 1915 in Stockholm, Sweden, to a German mother, Frieda Henrietta (Adler), and a Swedish father, Justus Samuel Bergman, an artist and photographer. Her mother died when she was only two and her father died when she was 12. She went to live with an elderly uncle. The woman who would be one of the top stars in Hollywood in the 1940s had decided to become an actress after finishing her formal schooling. She had had a taste of acting at age 17 when she played an uncredited role of a girl standing in line in the Swedish film Landskamp (1932) in 1932 - not much of a beginning for a girl who would be known as \"\"Sweden's illustrious gift to Hollywood.\"\" Her parents died when she was just a girl and the uncle she lived with didn't want to stand in the way of Ingrid's dream. The next year she enrolled at the Royal Dramatic Theatre School in Stockholm but decided that stage acting was not for her."

"text": "\"Anathema Maranatha!by David J. Stewart\"\"If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathema Maranatha.\"\" — 1st Corinthians 16:22The word \"\"anathema\"\" means \"\"cursed.\"\" The word \"\"Maranatha\"\" means \"\"the Lord is coming.\"\" The Word of God is saying that if anyone does not want to get saved, then let him be cursed because the Lord is coming. You can try to warn people, but they ultimately must make the decision to accept or reject Jesus as the Christ, the Son of God. If we warn people of the judgment to come and they laugh in our faces, then they are choosing to go to Hell by their own freewill. They will be cursed and burn in Hell if they don't become born-again, i.e., born anew of the Spirit of God by faith. \"\" A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject; Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself.\"\" — Titus 3:10-11People may sometimes swear at us and curse God when we witness to them (which I had happen last weekend), but they are the one's who will be the losers when they die without Christ in their sins.

In 1995, the headliners billed were Joe Cocker and Simple Minds. However, due to the public being oversaturated with family festivals, the number of visitors had dropped to an all-time low. Founder Peter Van Geel realized that mainstream rock music held insufficient appeal to festival visitors. Reflecting on the most memorable acts of the preceding years ( Motörhead, Ramones, Paradise Lost, and so forth) and on his own musical preferences, he decided in favour of a drastic reorientation. After discussions with Werchter festival promoter Herman Schueremans, Van Geel contacted Bob Schoenmaekers, the owner of the Biebob concert venue and metal club in nearby Vosselaar. A couple of years earlier, Schoenmaekers had set up his \"\"Midsummer Metal Meeting\"\" in Vosselaar and because of space limits, he was considering an open-air festival. The initial contact soon led to close collaboration."

"text": "Maranatha The word “maranatha” is a Syriac expression that means: “our Lord comes.” It was used as a greeting in the early church. When believers gathered or parted, they didn’t say “hello” or “goodby” but “Maranatha!” If we had the same upward look today, it would revolutionize the church. O that God’s people had a deepening awareness of the imminent return of the Savior!While on a South Pole expedition, British explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton left a few men on Elephant Island, promising that he would return. Later, when he tried to go back, huge icebergs blocked the way. But suddenly, as if by a miracle, an avenue opened in the ice and Shackleton was able to get through. His men, ready and waiting, quickly scrambled aboard. No sooner had the ship cleared the island than the ice crashed together behind them. Contemplating their narrow escape, the explorer said to his men, “It was fortunate you were all packed and ready to go!”"

"text": "\"What does ‘maranatha’ mean? Subscribe to our Question of the Week: Question: \"\"What does ‘maranatha’ mean?\"\" Answer: Maranatha is an Aramaic word that means “the Lord is coming” or “come, O Lord.” The early church faced much persecution, and life for a Christian under Roman rule was not easy. The Romans required everyone to declare that Caesar was god. The early Christians knew that there is only one God and one Lord—Jesus Christ—and in all good conscience they could not call Caesar “Lord,” so the Romans looked upon them as traitors, persecuted them, and put them to death. Living under those adverse conditions, the believers’ morale was lifted by the hope of the coming of the Lord. “ Maranatha!” became the common greeting of the oppressed believers, replacing the Jewish greeting shalom (“peace”). The followers of Jesus knew there would be no peace because Jesus had told them so ( Matthew 10:34; Luke 12:51 )."

In its other main usage, it is a formal excommunication. [ 1] [2] [3] The latter meaning, its ecclesiastical sense, is based on New Testament usage. In the Old Testament, anathema referred either to something (living or inanimate) that was consecrated or something denounced as evil or accursed and set aside for sacrificial offering.

In the Old Testament, it referred to both objects consecrated to divine use and those dedicated to destruction in the Lord's name, such as enemies and their weapons during religious wars. Since weapons of the enemy were considered unholy, the meaning became \"\"anything dedicated to evil\"\" or \"\"a curse\"\". \"\" Anathema\"\" was initially used in its ecclesiastical sense by St. Paul to mean the excommunication of a heretic or an unrepentant excommunicated heretic. By the 6th century, the liturgical meaning evolved again to mean a formal ecclesiastical curse of excommunication and the condemnation of heretical doctrines, the severest form of separation from the Christian church issued against a heretic or group of heretics by a Pope or other church official.

I certainly did not know that when I underwent communion in my religious days. It sounds so innocent and benign; \"\"Communion\"\" imparts the concept of sharing thoughts and feelings, or so I thought. Oh how the priests fooled me. They used other obscure terms too, like \"\"Eucharist\"\" and \"\"Sacrament of the Last Supper.\"\" At no time did a priest or deacon explain to me that I would share in the communal eating of the human flesh and blood of Jesus. Cannibal: A person who eats the flesh of human beings. Since Jesus represents an actual human being, and I ate him, that made me a cannibal. And if you have ever undergone communion, then you too fall into that category. The Church tricked me and turned me into a cannibal!Not only did I drink blood and eat flesh, but they made me do it in front of a statue of a bloody corpse hanging by nails on two pieces of lumber, a representation of the human whom I had just eaten.

Subscribe to our Question of the Week: Question: \"\"What does selah mean in the Bible?\"\" Answer: The word selah is found in two books of the Bible, but is most prevalent in the Psalms, where it appears 71 times. It also appears three times in the third chapter of the minor prophet Habakkuk. There is a great deal of uncertainty about the meaning of selah. Most versions of the Bible do not attempt to translate selah but simply transliterate the word straight from the Hebrew. The Septuagint translated the word as “ daplasma ” (“a division”). Well-meaning Bible scholars disagree on the definition of selah and on its root word, but since God has ordained that it be included in His Word, we should make an effort to find out, as best we can, the meaning. One possible Hebrew word related to selah is calah, which means “to hang” or “to measure or weigh in the balances.” Referring to wisdom, Job says, “The topaz of Ethiopia shall not equal it, neither shall it be valued with pure gold” (Job 28:19)."

"text": "\"What is the meaning of the Greek word dunamis in the Bible? Subscribe to our Question of the Week: Question: \"\"What is the meaning of the Greek word dunamis in the Bible?\"\" Answer: The Greek dunamis is used 120 times in the New Testament. Loosely, the word refers to “strength, power, or ability.” It is the root word of our English words dynamite, dynamo and dynamic. In the Parable of the Talents ( Matthew 25:14–30 ), the servants are given wealth based on their dunamis, or their “ability” to handle money. In Mark 9:1 Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see that the kingdom of God has come with power.” “ Power” here is dunamis. However, dunamis is not just any power; the word often refers to miraculous power or marvelous works (such as in Matthew 7:22; 11:21, 23; Mark 5:30; Luke 5:17; 9:1; 10:13; and Acts 8:13 ). Dunamis can also refer to “moral power and excellence of soul,” according to Thayer’s Greek Lexicon."

Subscribe to our Question of the Week: Question: \"\"What is the meaning of exousia in the Bible?\"\" Answer: Exousia is a Greek word most often translated as “ authority ” or “power.” It is especially used in terms of moral influence. Exousia can also be thought of in terms of jurisdiction or dominion over a certain realm, right, privilege, or ability. Exousia is used in Matthew 7. Verses 28–29 say, “When Jesus had finished saying these things, the crowds were amazed at his teaching, because he taught as one who had authority [ exousia ], and not as their teachers of the law.” The word is also used in Matthew 9:6 when Jesus demonstrates that He has “authority” to forgive sins by healing a paralyzed man. The word is again used in Matthew 21:23–27 when the chief priests and elders question Jesus’ authority. Interestingly, in Luke 4:6 it is exousia with which Satan tempts Jesus."

It is a firm warning, almost a curse, upon anyone that did not love Yahusha. The word maranatha without the associated word \"\"anathema\"\" began to be used by Christians in recent times. Maranatha ( Maran + atha) means \"\"master comes. \"\" Correctly understood, the phrase anathema maranatha means “forbidden; Master comes!”Those making it clear they are opposed to Yahusha are “off-limits” to us, so we say “anathema maranatha” pertaining to any close relationships with them, especially Scripture studies. We are still sent to those who may have been misled by former teachers, but we are not to destroy the reputations of those former teachers as we see so many doing today with the Internet.

Biologists state that all living organisms must share a single last common ancestor. When critically analyzing and comparing their similarities, evidence can be identified about their evolutionary relationships. However, environment also has a great influence on organisms’ characteristics. Natural selection and adaptation lead organisms to survive or become extinct from the environment. Scientists compare anatomy, embryos and DNA data to determine the evolutionary history of organisms and build phylogenetic trees. However, phylogenetic trees or evolutionary trees are hypothesized constructions. Hence, scientists use homologous characters and analogous characters. Homologous characters are the similar characters observed in different organisms due to a common ancestor. These organisms have homologous structures."

All vertebrates (including humans) have the same basic body plan – they are strictly bilaterally symmetrical in early embryonic stages and largely bilaterally symmetrical in adulthood. [ 1] That is, they have mirror-image left and right halves if divided down the centre. [ 2] For these reasons, the basic directional terms can be considered to be those used in vertebrates. By extension, the same terms are used for many other ( invertebrate) organisms as well. While these terms are standardized within specific fields of biology, there are unavoidable, sometimes dramatic, differences between some disciplines. For example, differences in terminology remain a problem that, to some extent, still separates the terminology of human anatomy from that used in the study of various other zoological categories.

Standardized anatomical and zoological terms of location have been developed, usually based on Latin and Greek words, to enable all biological and medical scientists to precisely delineate and communicate information about animal bodies and their component organs, even though the meaning of some of the terms often is context-sensitive.

The testes and the ovaries secrete steroid hormones that help you grow and develop. In this lesson, we will learn about the female hormones, estrogen and progesterone, and the male hormone, testosterone, and how these hormones influence the development of secondary sex characteristics. Gonads As we have learned in our study of the endocrine system, hormones play a controlling role during every stage of development. From a baby's first birthday to his or her retirement years, hormones are produced and secreted to help deal with the complexities of being a human. In this lesson, we will take a look at the hormones produced by the gonads that play a key role in your growth and development. The gonads are the organs that make sex hormones and reproductive cells. We do see that sex hormones are produced by the adrenal cortex; however, the secretion of sex hormones from the adrenal cortex is minimal compared to the amount produced by the gonads. Ovaries Location of the ovaries in females The ovaries are the female gonads. The ovaries are paired organs that are found in the pelvic cavity."

MS is mostly due to rheumatic fever but other aetiologies are emerging and should be recognized, as these forms are usually not suitable for PMC. This review aims to present the different aetiologies of MS, their echocardiographic characteristics and the potential value of three-dimensional (3D) echocardiography ( Table 1 ). Table 1.

"text": "Journal of Human Evolution Volume 64, Issue 6, June 2013, Pages 631-644Thickened cranial vault and parasagittal keeling: Correlated traits and autapomorphies of Homo erectus? Antoine Balzeau Show morehttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhevol.2013.02.005 Get rights and content Abstract Homo erectus sensu lato (s.l.) is a key species in the hominin fossil record for the study of human evolution, being one of the first species discovered and perhaps the most documented, but also because of its long temporal range and having dispersed out of Africa earlier than any other human species. Here I test two proposed autapomorphic traits of H. erectus, namely the increased thickness of the upper cranial vault and parasagittal keeling. The definition of these two anatomical features and their expression and variation among hominids are discussed. The results of this study indicate that the upper vault in Asian H. erectus is not absolutely thicker compared with fossil anatomically modern Homo sapiens, whereas Broken Hill and Petralona have values above the range of variation of H. erectus. Moreover, this anatomical region in Asian H. erectus is not significantly thicker compared with Pan paniscus. In addition, these results demonstrate that cranial vault thickness should not be used to make hypotheses regarding sexual attribution of fossil hominin specimens. I also show that the relation between relief on the external surface of the upper vault, parasagittal keeling and bregmatic eminence, and bone thickness is complex. In this context, the autapomorphic status of the two analysed traits in H. erectus may be rejected."

Learning Objectives Describe the standard position in human anatomy Key Takeaways Key Points In standard anatomical position, the limbs are placed similarly to the supine position imposed on cadavers during autopsy. The anatomical position of the skull is the Frankfurt plane. In this position, the lower margins of the orbitals (eye sockets), the lower margin of the orbits, and the upper margins of the ear canals (poria) lie in the same horizontal plane. Because animals can change orientation with respect to their environments and appendages can change position with respect to the body, positional descriptive terms refer to the organism only in its standard anatomical position to prevent confusion. Key Termsappendage: A limb of the body.supine: Lying on its back, reclined.anatomical position: The standard position in which the body is standing with feet together, arms to the side, and head, eyes, and palms facing forward. The Need for Standardization Standard anatomical position is the body orientation used when describing an organism’s anatomy. Standardization is necessary to avoid confusion since most organisms can take on many different positions that may change the relative placement of organs. All descriptions refer to the organism in its standard anatomical position, even when the organism’s appendages are in another position. Thus, the standard anatomical position provides a “gold standard” when comparing the anatomy of different members of the same species."

"text": "anatomy The word ‘anatomy’ derives from the Greek ana (up) and tome (a cutting) — hence ‘ dissection ’ — and it can be defined as the science of the structure of a body learned by dissection. The word can thus be applied to any structure, and we can talk about the anatomy of a plant, an insect, or even a machine, but here the term will be restricted to the structure of the human being. Since earliest times, man may have been curious about the inner structure and workings of his body. Certainly the ancient Egyptians, in performing mummification, which involved preliminary removal of the viscera, would have gained considerable information about the organs of the chest and abdomen. However, the practitioners of this art were not medical, and there is little evidence that the doctors of those times derived any knowledge from this potentially rich source of anatomical material. The first recorded school of anatomy, where dissection of the human body was performed, was in Alexandria, and it flourished between the first century bc and the second century ad. Here two Greeks, Herophilus and Erasistratus, were celebrated for their experience of anatomy acquired by the dissection of condemned criminals, and they described many structures of the human body. Herophilus recognized the brain as the central organ of the nervous system and the seat of intelligence, thus reversing the view of Aristotle, the Greek philosopher, of the primacy of the heart. Erasistratus observed the convolutions of the brain, noted that they were more marked in man than in lower animals, and associated this complexity with the higher intelligence of man. He also described the main parts of the brain, its coverings, and its cavities, the ventricles."

Although sea anemones are among the simplest of animals, they possess one of the most complex structures in the animal kingdom: the nematocyst, or stinging capsule. Their possession of this feature places sea anemones in the phylum known as Cnidaria, in which jellyfish, corals, and hydra are also found. Other characteristics that are shared by members of this phylum are a diploblastic structure and the possession of a coelenteron. While most animals are triploblastic, meaning they possess three body layers, cnidarians possess only two: the ectoderm and the endoderm."

Most A&P courses begin with positions and directionals. I’m going to give you the rundown. Stay tuned for part two, featuring planes and cavities!Position Is Everything: Anatomical Position How many of you have used our apps or at least seen the models and thought, “Boy, that body looks awfully stiff in that one position all the time”? Which, okay, is true. But there’s a reason our 3D body models (I affectionately call them Brenda and Paul) look stiff as a board—it’s the position in which we study the body. Anatomical position is the description of any region or part of the body in a specific stance. In the anatomical position, the body is upright, directly facing the observer, feet flat and directed forward. The upper limbs are at the body’s sides with the palms facing forward. Like so: You’ve probably seen all sorts of pictures of the body in your A&P textbooks that look like this."

Any of the four terminal members of the hand, specifically those other than the thumb. Linguistically, it appears that the original sense was the broader of these two: penkwe-ros (also rendered as penqrós) was, in the inferred Proto-Indo-European language, a suffixed form of penkwe (or penqe ), which has given rise to many Indo-European -family words (tens of them defined in English dictionaries) that involve or flow from concepts of fiveness. The thumb shares the following with each of the other four fingers: Having a skeleton of phalanges, joined by hinge-like joints that provide flexion toward the palm of the hand Having a \"\"back\"\" surface that features hair and a nail, and a hairless palm-of-the-hand side with fingerprint ridges instead The thumb contrasts with each of the other four by being the only digit that: Is opposable to the other four fingers Has two phalanges rather than three Has greater breadth in the distal phalanx than in the proximal phalanx Is attached to such a mobile metacarpus (which produces most of the opposability)and hence the etymology of the word: \"\"tum\"\" is Proto-Indo-European for \"\"swelling\"\" (cf \"\"tumour\"\" and \"\"thigh\"\") since the thumb is the stoutest of the fingers. Opposition and apposition [ edit]A bonobo \"\"fishing\"\" for termites, an example of incomplete/\"\"untrue\"\" opposition. [ 2]In humans, opposition and apposition are two movements unique to the thumb, but these words are not synonyms: Primatologists and hand research pioneers John and Prudence Napier defined opposition as: \"\"A movement by which the pulp surface of the thumb is placed squarely in contact with - or diametrically opposite to - the terminal pads of one or all of the remaining digits.\"\""

The main function of the atria is to facilitate circulation by rhythmically contracting and relaxing their walls, pushing the blood that is returned to them via the major venous vessels during ventricular systole into the ventricles. Left atrium - dorsal view Anatomy The atria are divided into the left atrium and the right atrium, which correspond to the left and right sides of the heart. They are situated just above the ventricles of the heart and are separated by the cuspid valves. The atria are built and held up by rigid endocardial muscle fibers that completely encompass the blood as it flows through them. Left Atrium The left atrium is responsible for collecting the outflow of oxygenated blood that runs back to the heart from the pulmonary veins. It passes this volume of blood on to the left ventricle, as the atrium contracts and the mitral valve opens. This valve is also known as the bicuspid valve because it is formed by two septal cusps. Occasionally, it is also mentioned in literature as the left atrioventricular valve. Recommended video: Left atrium Definition, function and anatomy of the left atrium."

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

Two types of joints in the neck are given special attention because they’re different from other joints: the atlanto-occipital joints and the atlanto-axial joints in the upper cervical region. These joints between the first two cervical vertebrae and the cranium permit a greater degree of movement than the rest of the vertebral column. The vertebrae also articulate with the ribs and the hip bones. Atlanto-occipital joints: Joining the head and the atlas Atlanto-occipital joints are synovial joints located between the occipital condyles and the superior articular surfaces of the lateral masses of the atlas. You have two atlanto-occipital joints, which allow you to nod your head. They’re held in place by the anterior and posterior atlanto-occipital membranes, which help prevent excessive movement of the joints. Atlanto-axial joints: Joining the atlas and axis The three atlanto-axial joints are also synovial joints. One is found between the dens (odontoid process) of the axis (2nd cervical vertebra) and the anterior arch of the atlas (1st cervical vertebra), and two are located between the lateral masses of the 1st cervical vertebra and the superior articular facets of the 2nd cervical vertebra. The following four ligaments stabilize these joints: Apical ligament: Connects the dens (odontoid process) to the foramen magnum of the occipital bone Alar ligaments: Connect the dens (odontoid process) to the lateral margins of the foramen magnum Cruciate ligament: Attaches the dens (odontoid process) to the anterior arch of the atlas and the body of the axis to the foramen magnum of the occipital bone Tectorial membrane: Starts at the skull and becomes the posterior longitudinal ligament Intervertebral joints: Joining other vertebrae to each other Intervertebral joints, which connect adjacent vertebrae, include both synovial and cartilaginous joints."

The upper and lower surfaces of the vertebra body give attachment to the intervertebral discs. The posterior part of a vertebra forms a vertebral arch, in eleven parts, consisting of two pedicles, two laminae, and seven processes. The laminae give attachment to the ligamenta flava (ligaments of the spine). There are vertebral notches formed from the shape of the pedicles, which form the intervertebral foramina when the vertebrae articulate.

This article will review:cervical spine anatomydegenerative conditions that can lead to neck paindiagnosistreatments First, a Cervical Spine Anatomy Lesson The cervical spine consists of the top 7 vertebrae of the spine. Doctors often refer to these vertebrae as C1-C7, with the \"\"C\"\" indicating cervical, and the numbers 1-7 indicating the level of the vertebrae. C1 is closest to the skull, while C7 is closest to the thoracic (chest/rib cage) region of the spine. The cervical spine is particularly susceptible to degenerative problems because of:its large range of motionits somewhat complex anatomy. For example, cervical motion segments (ie, a disc with a vertebra above and below) consist of five \"\"joints\"\" (the intervertebral disc, the two facet joints, and the two uncovertebral joints). Many degenerative problems, including osteophytes (bone spurs), can develop in these motion segments.

The cervical spine (neck) is delicate—housing the spinal cord that sends messages from the brain to control all aspects of the body—while also remarkably strong and flexible, allowing movement in all directions. Save The neck is connected to the upper back through a series of seven vertebral segments. Watch: Cervical Spine Anatomy Video The neck begins at the base of the skull and through a series of seven vertebral segments connects to the thoracic spine (the upper back). With its complex and intricate construct, and the many stresses and forces that can be placed on it through a trauma or even just daily activities, the cervical spine is at risk for developing a number of painful conditions. See Chronic Neck Pain: What Condition Is Causing My Neck Pain? This article explores how the neck functions and how spinal anatomy relates to common causes of cervical neck pain, a stiff neck, arm pain, and other symptoms of cervical spine disorders. See Diagnosing Neck Pain Article continues below The Cervical Spine: Roles and Functionalities The cervical spine performs several crucial roles, including: Housing and protecting the spinal cord.

Read Spinal Discs Composed of collagen and ligaments, the cervical discs also hold the cervical vertebrae together and allow for flexibility and different movements of the neck. See Stiff Neck Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment Cervical Disc Construction Each cervical disc has two basic components: Outer layer. This tough exterior, called the annulus fibrosus, is comprised of collagen fibers that surround the inner core and distribute the forces placed on the structure. Inner core. This soft jelly interior, called the nucleus pulposus, is a loose, fibrous network suspended in mucoprotein gel that is sealed by the annulus fibrosus. The discs need to be well-hydrated in order to maintain their strength and softness to serve as the body's major carrier of axial load. With age, the cervical discs lose water, stiffen and become less flexible in adjusting to compression."

The basic configuration of a vertebra varies; the large part is the body, and the central part is the centrum. The upper and lower surfaces of the vertebra body give attachment to the intervertebral discs. The posterior part of a vertebra forms a vertebral arch, in eleven parts, consisting of two pedicles, two laminae, and seven processes. The laminae give attachment to the ligamenta flava (ligaments of the spine). There are vertebral notches formed from the shape of the pedicles, which form the intervertebral foramina when the vertebrae articulate. These foramina are the entry and exit conducts for the spinal nerves. The body of the vertebra and the vertebral arch form the vertebral foramen, the larger, central opening that accommodates the spinal canal, which encloses and protects the spinal cord."

Share Email Print Feedback Overview The cervical spine is made up of 7 vertebrae. The first 2, C1 and C2, are highly specialized and are given unique names: atlas and axis, respectively. C3-C7 are more classic vertebrae, having a body, pedicles, laminae, spinous processes, and facet joints. C1 and C2 form a unique set of articulations that provide a great degree of mobility for the skull. C1 serves as a ring or washer that the skull rests upon and articulates in a pivot joint with the dens or odontoid process of C2. Approximately 50% of flexion extension of the neck happens between the occiput and C1; 50% of the rotation of the neck happens between C1 and C2. The cervical spine is much more mobile than the thoracic or lumbar regions of the spine. Unlike the other parts of the spine, the cervical spine has transverse foramina in each vertebra for the vertebral arteries that supply blood to the brain. Gross Anatomy The cervical spine is made up of the first 7 vertebrae, referred to as C1-7 (see the images below). It functions to provide mobility and stability to the head while connecting it to the relatively immobile thoracic spine."

The cervical spine begins at the base of the skull. The first two segments, C1 and C2, are unlike typical vertebral bodies. C1 is called the atlas; it is ring-shaped and supports the head. C2 is the axis and includes the dens (odontoid process), a tooth-like bone that projects upward into the ring of the atlas. The den and the atlas allow the head to rotate, move side-to-side, and move forward and backward. C3 through C6 The third cervical vertebra through the sixth (C3-C6) are similarly shaped (see Figure 1). Figure 1C7: Vertebra Prominens The seventh cervical vertebra (C7) is called the vertebra prominens because it is more prominent than other cervical vertebrae. The spinous processes (bones that project off the back of the vertebral body) in C7 stick out farther than the spinous processes of the other cervical vertebrae. In fact, the spinous process of C7 can be seen and felt beneath the skin."

The image shown in the video is one is a normal scan of the spine—that is, all of the structures scanned are normal in appearance and not injured or degenerative. When a specialist is able to recognize what a normal scan looks like, it is much easier to determine what an abnormal finding is. This particular video—Understanding an MRI of the Normal Cervical Spine—is the companion video to the next two videos in the series; MRI of cervical nerve compression and MRI of cervical stenosis with spinal cord injury. This video is designed to give you a basic understanding of the anatomy of the cervical spine and then to identify the basic changes that occur with degenerative disc disease, herniated discs, nerve root compression and spinal stenosis with spinal cord compression.

This is because normal C-spine X-rays cannot exclude significant injury, and because a missed C-spine fracture can lead to death, or life long neurological deficit. Clinico-radiological assessment of spinal injuries should be managed by experienced clinicians in accordance with local and national clinical guidelines. Imaging should not delay resuscitation. Further imaging with CT or MRI (not discussed) is often appropriate in the context of a high risk injury, neurological deficit, limited clinical examination, or where there are unclear X-ray findings. Standard views The 3 standard views are - Lateral view - Anterior-Posterior (AP) view - and the Odontoid Peg view (or Open Mouth view). In the context of trauma these images are all difficult to acquire because the patient may be in pain, confused, unconscious, or unable to cooperate due to the immobilisation devices.

Tweet 33Tags: doctor, pregnancy, prenatal testing What You Should Know About the Anatomy Ultrasoundby Mindi Stavish Image via Mindi Stavish Halfway through your pregnancy, you will experience one of my favorite parts of pregnancy: the anatomy scan. The anatomy scan is a level 2 ultrasound, which is typically performed between 18 and 22 weeks. Other than finding out the sex of your baby (if you want to know), the ultrasound technician will be taking many measurements of your baby. Since the technician will be concentrating on the screen, they may or may not talk you through the examination. Don't be afraid to ask questions, though. I find that it's best to go in with an idea of what the technician will be looking for specifically and a written list of questions. Brain The technician will be assessing the fluid-filled spaces inside the brain and the shape of the cerebellum, which is in the back of the brain. He or she will also be able to identify if any cysts are in the choroid plexus, which is a tissue in the brain that produces cerebrospinal fluid. Fetal cysts may indicate an increased risk for a chromosome abnormality; however, the majority of these cysts disappear by the 28th week of pregnancy with no effect on the baby. {"

Top Abstract Purpose To assess the influence of visually significant cataract on the measurement of nerve fibre layer thickness by scanning laser polarimetry (GDx) in glaucoma patients undergoing phacoemulsification cataract extraction. Method and Subjects All subjects with primary glaucoma participating in a prospective trial of glaucoma surgery who subsequently underwent cataract extraction were eligible. A single trained observer using the GDx nerve fibre layer analyser (LDT) performed pre- and post-operative measurements of nerve fibre layer thickness (NFLT). NFLT parameters, best-corrected Log MAR visual acuity, and automated visual fields were assessed before and after phacoemulsification cataract extraction with implantation of an acrylic intraocular lens. Results A total of 49 subjects were assessed: 22 (45%) had POAG and 29 (55%) PACG; all were Asian (36 (73%) were Chinese), with mean age 67.1 ( 7.6 SD) and mean 'LOCS III' lens opacity grading 11.4 ( 3.1 SD). Visual acuity significantly improved (mean Log MAR 0.5 vs 0.15, P <0.0001). Corrected pattern standard deviation (6.1 vs 6.4, P =0.2) and mean deviation (-17.7 d B vs -17.0 P =0.91) were little changed after cataract removal."

"text": "The History of the X-Ray Posted December 26, 2012 | By csponline Advanced Radiological Technology Credited for Saving Lives The 1895 discovery of the X-ray greatly advanced modern medicine and provided doctors with a way to look inside the human body for advanced diagnosis and a clearer vision for treatment. The X-ray has been credited for saving millions of lives in the more than 100 years since its discovery. X-rays have become a standard diagnosis tool in today’s health care system, helping to produce quality images of a patient’s internal anatomy. X-rays help physicians’ diagnose broken bones, locate tumors and cancers as well as examine internal systems such as the digestive tract. Read more to gain a transparent view of thismedical miracle as we examine the history of one of medicine’s greatest discoveries. A Life Saving Medical Discovery German physics professor Wilhelm Rontgen discovered today’s modern X-ray technology while studying electrons experimenting with Crookes tubes – gas-filled discharge tubes. Rontgen’s inadvertent discovery came after he noticed light passing through one of his tubes that had been wrapped with a thin, black cardboard. His observation led to him studying other materials that light could pass through, such as the Crookes tubes, testing paper, books and eventually his wife’s hand, which is now known as the first X-ray image. Great scientific minds such as Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison continued to build on Rontgen’s discovery during the late 19th century, helping to improve this new technology during the early days of the X-ray’s use in medicine. It was soon discovered that Rontgen’s Crookes tubes were unreliable and hindered the effectiveness of the X-ray."

"text": "3D Cone-Beam CT Scans Getting more with Less: A Discussion of Cone-Beam and Radiographic Imaging At Charlotte Oral Surgery Theres a good chance that your doctor will need to obtain one or more x-rays of your jaw, teeth or facial skeleton (and/or associated soft tissue structures) at some point during the diagnostic evaluation (or workup) of your condition, or during treatment or follow-up of your condition. Often times films ( or copies of films) from your referring dentist can be utilized without the need for additional imaging; however, please be aware many times these film images are of inadequate orientation or quality (particularly when an image has been transferred to paper) and critical areas of anatomy cannot always be discerned adequately in order to make an informed decision (transferring radiographic data from electronic media to paper can result in significant loss of image resolution and clarity). In these cases a new image in our office is typically obtained. Fill out our Appointment Form or call us at 704-358-8898 if you have any questions or to schedule an appointment with Dr. Moore today!Various types of films/images obtained for evaluation of Oral & Maxillofacial conditions: Periapical (PA)-or dental peri apical films – (2-Dimensional) commonly obtained in a general dentists office; these films provide high detail for very small anatomic regions (and are typically used to evaluate individual teeth or structures surrounding teeth). Occulusal films – (2-Dimensional)-similar to PA films, these films are slightly larger in size and allow for images of larger regions of the jaw or teeth. Panoramic films – (2-Dimensional)-essentially, a tomogram of the facial skeleton; this is the workhorse film within our specialty, as multiple anatomic regions can be evaluated in one film. Often considered a screening film, this film is essentially an extended tomogram or slice of the jaws and may provide adequate visualization of structures with the jaws. 3-Dimensional relationships (i.e. structures in front of or behind the chosen slice), however, cannot be discerned with this film (additional imaging modalities are used for this purpose). Tomographic films – (2 Dimensional)-used for evaluating varying slices of the anatomy. Typically used for Temporomandibular Joint evaluation or evaluation of selected regions of the facial skeletal anatomy, newer cone-beam technology incorporates tomographic sliding in a digital manner."

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is another way of producing precise images of the body's internal organs without the use of x-rays. The machine generates high-resolution images which appear as cross sections of anatomy. MRI uses a large magnet, radio frequencies, and a computer to produce its images. The computer processes these signals to produce highly detailed images of your anatomy. MRI is also capable of producing those images in an infinite number of projections throughout the body. These images are useful in the early discovery and treatment of many conditions and diseases. What is MRA? Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA) is a non-invasive technique on the MRI scanner to image blood vessels of any body part, most commonly those in the head and neck. MRA is an alternative to conventional angiography which requires the insertion of needles and catheters into the blood vessels with the use of x-ray."

Discuss the radiographic and CT findings in the major fissures and their normal variants.•. Describe the effects of various diseases on the imaging appearance of the major fissures.•. Discuss the CT appearances and clinical significance of incomplete major fissure. Introduction Section: Choose prevnext The major fissure (also known as the oblique or greater fissure) is an important anatomic landmark in the interpretation of chest radiographs and computed tomographic (CT) scans. Radiologic identification of a lesion in relation to the major fissure is important for precise localization of the lesion to the anatomic pulmonary lobes. In this article, we describe the radiographic and CT appearances of the normal major fissures and normal variants (including superolateral and superomedial major fissures, vertical fissure line, and intrafissural fat) and related abnormalities (adjacent infiltrate or atelectasis; intrafissural effusion, air, or tumor; distortion by tumor, granulomatous disease, or fibrosis). We also discuss and illustrate imaging pitfalls due to oblique orientation of the major fissure and the radiologic appearance and clinical implications of incomplete major fissure. Normal Anatomy and Normal Variants Section: Choose prevnext Knowledge of the anatomy of the major fissures is essential for understanding their variable appearances at chest radiography and CT and recognizing various abnormal findings ( 1 – 3 ). The normal major fissures consist of double layers of infolded invaginations of the visceral pleura. The major fissures separate the lower pulmonary lobes from the upper lobe on the left and from the upper and middle lobes on the right. The right major fissure is shorter and wider than the left one and has a greater overall area, the left fissure starting a little cephalad and terminating slightly posterior to the right fissure. Both fissures face anteriorly and pass obliquely downward along the fifth rib, having an undulating course with a propeller-like configuration ( Fig 1 )."

Tweet 33Tags: doctor, pregnancy, prenatal testing What You Should Know About the Anatomy Ultrasoundby Mindi Stavish Image via Mindi Stavish Halfway through your pregnancy, you will experience one of my favorite parts of pregnancy: the anatomy scan. The anatomy scan is a level 2 ultrasound, which is typically performed between 18 and 22 weeks. Other than finding out the sex of your baby (if you want to know), the ultrasound technician will be taking many measurements of your baby. Since the technician will be concentrating on the screen, they may or may not talk you through the examination. Don't be afraid to ask questions, though. I find that it's best to go in with an idea of what the technician will be looking for specifically and a written list of questions. Brain The technician will be assessing the fluid-filled spaces inside the brain and the shape of the cerebellum, which is in the back of the brain. He or she will also be able to identify if any cysts are in the choroid plexus, which is a tissue in the brain that produces cerebrospinal fluid. Fetal cysts may indicate an increased risk for a chromosome abnormality; however, the majority of these cysts disappear by the 28th week of pregnancy with no effect on the baby. {"

As the mucosa of the sinuses is continuous with that of the nose, rhinosinusitis is a more suitable term. [ 1, 2, 3]Sinusitis can be subdivided into acute, subacute, and chronic disease. Acute sinusitis is defined as disease lasting less than 1 month. Subacute disease lasts 1-3 months, and chronic sinusitis lasts longer than 3 months and is generally related to suboptimally treated acute or subacute disease. Acute and subacute sinusitis are treated medically, whereas chronic sinusitis may require surgical intervention. Functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) has revolutionized the treatment of sinusitis. The therapeutic benefits of FESS have helped a large number of patients with chronic sinus disease. [ 4, 5]Obstruction of the draining pathways of the sinuses is now thought to be the main cause of sinusitis. Examples of these pathways include the ostia of the maxillary sinuses and the hiatus semilunaris, where the anterior group of paranasal sinuses drains."

"text": "Keywords: Ovary, 852.92 ; Ovary, CT, 852.1211 ; Ovary, neoplasms, 852.30LEARNING OBJECTIVES Section: Choose prevnext After reading this article and taking the test, the reader will be able to:•. Describe the potential positions of the ovaries and the ovarian attachments.•. Discuss differentiation of enlarged lymph nodes from the ovaries near the pelvic sidewalls.•. Identify the ovarian origin of a pelvic mass. Introduction Section: Choose prevnext The ovaries are ovoid, almond-shaped structures that vary considerably in size depending on age, hormonal status, and the stage of the menstrual cycle ( 1 ). The adult ovary is about 2.5–5 cm long, 1.5–3 cm wide, and 1–2 cm thick ( 2, 3 ). It is preferable to use the ovarian volume when assessing normalcy of size ( 3 ), and it is calculated with the formula for a prolate ellipse (0.523 × length × width × thickness). The normal mean ovarian volume measured with ultrasonography (US) in a large series was 3.0 m L (95% confidence interval, 0.2–9.1 m L) before menarche, 9.8 m L (95% confidence interval, 2.5–21.9 m L) in menstruating women, and 5.8 m L (95% confidence interval, 1.2–14.1 m L) in postmenopausal women ( 4 ). Each ovary is suspended in the pelvic peritoneal cavity by three anchoring structures: the mesovarium, which anchors the ovary to the posterior surface of the broad ligament; the utero-ovarian ligament (ovarian ligament), which anchors the ovary to the uterus; and the suspensory ligament, which anchors the ovary to the pelvic sidewall ( 3, 5 – 8 ). However, the utero-ovarian ligament and the suspensory ligament of the ovary have variable degrees of laxity and behave more like mesenteries than as tightly fixating or rigid support structures ( 2, 6 ). Consequently, the actual position and the orientation of the ovaries are variable in different patients and in the same patient at different times ( 9 ). Furthermore, the ovaries may assume unusual locations in the upper pelvis or lower abdomen, particularly in the presence of a large ovarian or extraovarian pelvic mass ( 2 ). The variable position of the ovaries hinders their identification with computed tomography (CT)."

His father, Henry, hailed from the royal family of Thembu clan of the Xhosa people and served as an adviser to the Thembu chief, Jongintaba Dalindyebo. Mandela was one of Henry’s 12 children, born to Nosekeni, the third of four wives. He was christened Rolihlahla (meaning “troublemaker”) and enjoyed a traditional African childhood, herding cattle, learning stick fighting with other boys and undergoing a circumcision ceremony. Nelson Mandela dies: latest reaction Nelson Mandela: obituary Watch Mandela's 'walk to freedom' in 1990When Mandela was nine, his father died. Chief Jongintaba took the boy under his wing and became his official guardian. He sent Mandela to prestigious mission schools, first Clarkebury and then Healdtown, where a British teacher, one Mr Wellington, decided that the boy would be known as “Nelson” after the Admiral. Mandela embraced his new name and was steeped in English literature and British history.

[ 6] [7] [8]Zuma served as Deputy President of South Africa from 1999 to 2005, [9] [10] but was dismissed by President Thabo Mbeki in 2005 after Zuma's financial adviser, Schabir Shaik, was convicted of soliciting a bribe for Zuma. Zuma was nonetheless elected President of the African National Congress (ANC) on 18 December 2007 after defeating Mbeki at the ANC conference in Polokwane. On 20 September 2008, Mbeki announced his resignation after being recalled by the ANC's National Executive Committee. [ 11] The recall came after South African High Court Judge Christopher Nicholson ruled Mbeki had improperly interfered with the operations of the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA), including the prosecution of Jacob Zuma for corruption. Zuma led the ANC to victory in the 2009 general election and was elected President of South Africa. He was re-elected as ANC leader at the ANC conference in Mangaung on 18 December 2012, defeating challenger Kgalema Motlanthe by a large majority, [12] and remained president of South Africa after the 2014 general election, although his party suffered a decline in support, partly due to growing dissatisfaction with Zuma as president. Zuma has faced significant legal challenges before and during his presidency."

"text": "Abstract Background Antenatal care (ANC) is a key strategy to improve maternal and infant health. However, survey data from sub-Saharan Africa indicate that women often only initiate ANC after the first trimester and do not achieve the recommended number of ANC visits. Drawing on qualitative data, this article comparatively explores the factors that influence ANC attendance across four sub-Saharan African sites in three countries (Ghana, Kenya and Malawi) with varying levels of ANC attendance. Methods Data were collected as part of a programme of qualitative research investigating the social and cultural context of malaria in pregnancy. A range of methods was employed interviews, focus groups with diverse respondents and observations in local communities and health facilities. Results Across the sites, women attended ANC at least once. However, their descriptions of ANC were often vague. General ideas about pregnancy care – checking the foetus’ position or monitoring its progress – motivated women to attend ANC; as did, especially in Kenya, obtaining the ANC card to avoid reprimands from health workers. Women’s timing of ANC initiation was influenced by reproductive concerns and pregnancy uncertainties, particularly during the first trimester, and how ANC services responded to this uncertainty; age, parity and the associated implications for pregnancy disclosure; interactions with healthcare workers, particularly messages about timing of ANC; and the cost of ANC, including charges levied for ANC procedures – in spite of policies of free ANC – combined with ideas about the compulsory nature of follow-up appointments. Conclusion In these socially and culturally diverse sites, the findings suggest that ‘supply’ side factors have an important influence on ANC attendance: the design of ANC and particularly how ANC deals with the needs and concerns of women during the first trimester has implications for timing of initiation."

Genetic genealogy involves the use of genealogical DNA testing to determine the level and type of the genetic relationship between individuals. This application of genetics became popular with family historians in the 21st century, as tests became affordable. The tests have been promoted by amateur groups, such as surname study groups, or regional genealogical groups, as well as research projects such as the genographic project. As of 2018, 12 million people had been tested. As this field has developed, the aims of practitioners broadened, with many seeking knowledge of their ancestry beyond the recent centuries for which traditional pedigrees can be constructed.

In 1875, George Darwin used surnames to estimate the frequency of first-cousin marriages and calculated the expected incidence of marriage between people of the same surname ( isonymy ). He arrived at a figure between 2.25% and 4.5% for cousin-marriage in the population of Great Britain, higher among the upper classes and lower among the general rural population.

Here's how to leave several big-name services, from Facebook and Google to Netflix and Hulu. By Eric Griffith March 14, 2017 12:01AM ESTFacebook Twitter Linkedin Pinterest Reddit Email Copy Contents Social Networks Online Retailers Entertainment Services Dating Sites Accounts You Can't Delete The phrase \"\"I wish I could quit you\"\" takes on a whole new meaning when you want out of a relationship with an internet service. Sure, you once thought you and Facebook or Amazon or Netflix would be together forever, but terms of service change, end-user license agreements mature, and, well, you're just not in the same digital place anymore. Sadly, not all websites and social networks and online retailers are created equal when it comes to breaking up. With some, it takes only a couple of clicks to say goodbye. For a few sites, if you stop paying for the service, the site cuts ties fairly quickly. Others make you jump through more hoops. Even after you follow all the required steps, some sites never quite leave you alone, with vestiges of your relationship around forever. No matter what you call it—deleting, canceling, removing—when you want to be rid of an online account, many sites don't make it easy."

[ 2] In 1999, Greenspan had entered semi-retirement and was working on his family history. He began work on his mother's Nitz lineage. When faced with a roadblock in his work, he remembered two cases of genetics being used to prove ancestry that had recently been covered by the media. These were a study by University of Arizona researchers showing that many Cohen men from both Ashkenazic and Sephardic groups share the same Y-Chromosome [3] and a study that showed that male descendants of US President Thomas Jefferson and male descendants of his freed slave Sally Hemings shared the same Y-chromosome and a recent common ancestry. [ 4] Greenspan had Nitz cousins in California and had discovered someone in Argentina with the same ancestral surname and the same ancestral location in Eastern Europe. Wishing to use the same method of DNA comparison for his own genealogy, he contacted Dr. Michael Hammer at the University of Arizona. Greenspan discovered that academic labs did not offer testing directly to the public and that in general direct to consumer testing for genealogy was not commercially available either."

By Ben Arogundade. THANKS TO CHEAP MAIL ORDER KITS now available from dozens of labs, DNA ancestry testing is disrupting our pre-conceptions about what we consider race to be. A person who self-identifies as black, white, Asian or Hispanic may not be, as far as the science of DNA is concerned. Celebrities are at the forefront of the growth in ancestry DNA testing, thanks to a number of high profile television shows about race and identity that have brought the issue to the fore. CELEBRITY ANCESTRY TEST Singer, actress and star of the Ugly Betty television series Vanessa L Williams, first became interested in genetic ancestry testing as a result of her curiosity about the racial mix that had given her light skin and blue eyes. “ Not knowing what that was just made me very curious,” Williams told the LA Times. “ I have to admit that I was always jealous of people who knew their cultural background. As an African American, you don’t always have the luxury to know exactly where your ancestors are from."

[ 9]Portuguese settlers on Ceylon were essentially traders, but wished to form colonies, and Lisbon did nothing to discourage European settlement—even to the extent of advocating intermarriage with the Sinhalese. This was not encouraged by the Sinhalese. It was not the policy of the Dutch East India Company to endorse similar unions, although a number of unofficial liaisons between its employees and local women occurred in the late eighteenth century. [ 8]Burghers may vary from generation to generation in physical characteristics; some intermarried with the British [9] and produced descendants with predominantly European phenotypes, including fairer skin and a heavier physique, while others were almost indistinguishable from Sinhalese or Tamils.

Adapted from K. Bryc et al al., The American Journal of Human Genetics (2015)Genetic study reveals surprising ancestry of many Americans By Lizzie Wade Dec. 18, 2014 , 2:00 PMIn the United States, almost no one can trace their ancestry back to just one place. And for many, the past may hold some surprises, according to a new study. Researchers have found that a significant percentage of African-Americans, European Americans, and Latinos carry ancestry from outside their self-identified ethnicity. The average African-American genome, for example, is nearly a quarter European, and almost 4% of European Americans carry African ancestry. Until recently, “human population geneticists have tended to ignore the U. S.,” says Joanna Mountain, a geneticist and senior director of research at 23and Me, a company in Mountain View, California, that offers genetic testing. With its long history of migrations from around the world, she says, the country was “considered to be kind of messy in terms of genetics.” But Mountain and her colleagues thought they might have a fighting chance of deciphering Americans’ complex genetic ancestry.

"text": "The “Uniqueness” of Ashkenazi Jewish Ancestry is Important for Health May 22, 2012 By 23and Me under Ancestry, Health and Traits Ashkenazi Jews are one group that fall under the umbrella of “European”, but it’s clear from numerous studies that they’re genetically unique and distinct from the European population at large. Most people with Ashkenazi ancestry trace their DNA to Eastern and Central Europe, but also have Middle Eastern ancestry, which is just one reason for their genetic “uniqueness”. Genetic Variation Between and Within Populations It’s clear that people with European ancestry are genetically distinct from those of Asian or African descent, but what’s less obvious is that genetic variation also exists within European groups. In these plots from a study by Elimear Kenny, you can see the genetic variation between major ancestral groups (left) and within a population (right). Jewish groups fall into the European cluster on the left, but people with Ashkenazi ancestry (blue) form a unique cluster that is largely distinct from Caucasian (CEU; green) and other Jewish populations (various colors) on the right. Individuals who are part Ashkenazi fall in between the Caucasian and Ashkenazi clusters. The challenging history of Jewish groups has also contributed to their genetic uniqueness. During the Jewish Diaspora – or migration of Jewish people from the Middle East to other parts of the world – the vast majority of Jewish individuals married and raised families within their faith. Many generations later this means that Ashkenazi Jews can appear more genetically related than they actually are. This genetic isolation has had important implications for health."

Ewen Callaway06 June 2012PDF Rights & Permissions Condoleezza Rice, former US Secretary of State and national security adviser, ought to be a tough woman to surprise. Yet when Henry Louis Gates Jr, host of a US television series called Finding Your Roots, revealed that nearly half of her genetic ancestry could be traced to Europe, Rice, an African American, told Gates, “I’m stunned. ”Although it is no secret that many African Americans have some European ancestry — a legacy of the transatlantic slave trade — advances in DNA analysis are beginning to provide more detailed insight for individuals. Commercial ancestry testing, once the province of limited information of dubious accuracy, is taking advantage of whole-genome scans, sophisticated analyses and ever-deeper databases of human genetic diversity to help people to answer a simple question: where am I from? Until a few years ago, most ancestry tests for individuals relied on short stretches of DNA in cell-powering organelles called mitochondria, which are inherited through the mother, or on the Y chromosome, which a father passes down to his sons. As humans fanned out from Africa some 40,000 to 80,000 years ago and populated the world, mitochondria and Y chromosomes developed specific changes that were tied to different populations. Yet these ‘uniparental markers’, which chart an unbroken chain back through either the maternal or paternal line, are rarely unique to a population. For example, a set of Y-chromosome markers called Haplogroup R1b is common among Western European men, but a small fraction of North Africans have it, too. Similarly, “if men have a Y chromosome that is more common in Scandinavia than England, they’re convinced they’re a Viking”, says Mark Jobling, a geneticist at the University of Leicester, UK."

Built on low hills surrounding a huge harbour with innumerable bays and inlets, the city is dominated by the bulk of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, one of the longest steel-arch bridges in the world, and the Opera House, with its glittering white shell-shaped roofs that seem to echo the sails of the many yachts in the adjacent harbour.

People tend to come to it serendipitously: Newcomers are often introduced during a getaway from Florida’s other coast or while visiting friends. Naples quietly works her magic, revealing a lifestyle that’s slower paced than, say, Miami or Fort Lauderdale, but just as glamorous and vibrant. The city’s Gulf of Mexico backdrop mesmerizes, and with its small-town attitude and big-league amenities it offers the best of both worlds. Sergio and Kimberly Segarra discovered how much they looked forward to escaping to Naples soon after moving full time to Miami Beach. “ We noticed we were spending our holidays and getaways in Naples,” says Sergio, an emergency-room physician. Naples’ final act of entice- ment was a simple one: a homespun Christmas parade that reminded the couple of their western Pennsylvania roots. “ Most people may consider it a silly little parade, but we totally enjoyed it,” Sergio says. For Don and Angela Smith, it was more like love at first sight with this Gulf of Mexico city. “"

The paper benefited from the growth of San Francisco and was the largest circulation newspaper on the West Coast of the United States by 1880. Like many other newspapers, it has experienced a rapid fall in circulation in the early 21st century, and was ranked 24th by circulation nationally for the six months to March 2010. The newspaper publishes two web sites: SFGate, which has a mixture of online news and web features, and sfchronicle.com, which more closely reflects the type of articles that typically appear in print.

It does not need bright lighting and can be anchored with a plant anchor as long as you don't put it into the substrate/gavel. I found it very hardy and it is growing at a breakneck pace in my 8 L Eclipse with 6 Watts and no CO2 - I do however use Flourish Excel. In that tank it looks a nice dark green and will develop a brighter redish-brown coloration under very high light. This plant looks great and I use it in all of my freshwater aquariums; my betta escpecially loves this. Contributed by Marko I have a few hornwort plants growing in a couple of my 40 L aquariums. I think it's a very hardy plant as long as you give it light. When we didn't have the light on it, it started to die. As soon as we put light on them they started to sprout like crazy. They grow very long on the top of they tank so make sure you prune them to give the other plants light."

A fan-cooled heat sink on the processor of a personal computer. To the right is a smaller heat sink cooling another integrated circuit of the motherboard. A heat sink (also commonly spelled heatsink [1]) is a passive heat exchanger that transfers the heat generated by an electronic or a mechanical device to a fluid medium, often air or a liquid coolant, where it is dissipated away from the device, thereby allowing regulation of the device's temperature at optimal levels. In computers, heat sinks are used to cool central processing units or graphics processors. Heat sinks are used with high-power semiconductor devices such as power transistors and optoelectronics such as lasers and light emitting diodes (LEDs), where the heat dissipation ability of the component itself is insufficient to moderate its temperature. A heat sink is designed to maximize its surface area in contact with the cooling medium surrounding it, such as the air. Air velocity, choice of material, protrusion design and surface treatment are factors that affect the performance of a heat sink. Heat sink attachment methods and thermal interface materials also affect the die temperature of the integrated circuit."

If planted correctly, they'll flower the first year. There are two ways to plant them: the barefoot method (roots are exposed) or the container method (roots are not exposed). Barefoot Planting As the roots need to be soaked prior to planting, place the barefoot rose bush in a tub of water for 12 hours. If the rose bush is big, dig a hole 18 inches in diameter by 18 inches deep. If the rose bush is small, such as a miniature, dig a hole 12 inches in diameter by 14 inches deep."

"text": "\"When it comes to separating a bromeliad offset, often called a pup, from the mother plant, many people develop a case of \"\"separation anxiety.\"\" I know I did. While it isn't terribly difficult to do, there are some basic guidelines to follow in order to achieve success. Bromeliads can be propagated in two ways: by seed (sexual reproduction) or vegetatively (asexual reproduction) which occurs when a bromeliad plant produces pups that can be separated to form individual new plants. While I have never tried seed propagation of a bromeliad, I understand it is a long and tedious process. The second method is by far the easiest way for most of us to propagate these plants. The orange bromeliad in the pictures below is a member of the Guzmania genus of bromeliads . This genus is one of several genera that are sometimes called tank bromeliads due to the fact that the rosettes of broad leaves create a cup or vase, which provides a holding tank for water in the center of the plant. This tank should be filled with non-chlorinated water and never allowed to remain empty since tank bromeliads take in water and nutrients through the axils of the leaves forming the tank. Misting the plants is also very helpful if the air in your environment is dry or if you have a bromeliad that is not a tank type."

In 1751 Benjamin Franklin's Pennsylvania Gazette carried a bitter article protesting the British practice of sending convicts to America. The author suggested that the colonists return the favor by shipping \"\"a cargo of rattlesnakes, which could be distributed in St. James Park, Spring Garden, and other places of pleasure, and particularly in the noblemen's gardens.\"\" Three years later the same paper printed the picture (as seen above) of a snake as a commentary on the Albany Congress. To remind the delegates of the danger of disunity, the serpent was shown cut to pieces. Each segment is marked with the name of a colony, and the motto \"\"Join or Die\"\" below. Other newspapers took up the snake theme. By 1774 the segments of the snake had grown together, and the motto had been changed to read: United Now Alive and Free Firm on this Basis Liberty Shall Stand And Thus Supported Ever Bless Our Land Till Time Becomes Eternity A Flag of Conviction: \"\"Don't Tread On Me\"\"By Matthew Robinson 14 Jun 2000 CNSNews.com and the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.

But it also competes with other plants for available water and soil nutrients. If your lawn has encroached on any trees in your yard, you’ll want to get rid of it. Herbicides are not the answer. If you apply these plant-killing chemicals around your trees, the grass won’t be the only thing to die. A simple organic gardening remedy called sheet composting will remove the grass. Cut your grass as close to the soil as possible. Use a lawnmower at its lowest setting or a weed trimmer. Be careful not to injure the trunk of the nearby trees. Rake up the grass trimmings and add them to your compost pile."

I vividly remember the day our neighbor complained that his vegetable plants mysteriously started shriveling soon after he sprayed them for bugs. I asked when he’d used that spayer before. “ Oh, it was about a week ago,” he replied. “ I sprayed the grass for weeds. Well it didn’t take Isaac Newton to surmise what had happened. Our neighbor neglected to clean out his sprayer. Now the same chemical he had used to hammer his dandelions was stir-frying tomatoes. All of which goes to show that when it comes to dealing with bugs, weeds, fungi, and critters, it’s not enough to get most things right. You have to get them all right."

It may be used to hold a workpiece or a tool. An external collet is a sleeve with a (normally) cylindrical inner surface and a conical outer surface. The collet can be squeezed against a matching taper such that its inner surface contracts to a slightly smaller diameter, squeezing the tool or workpiece to hold it securely.

"text": "Re Potting Phalaenopsis Orchids Re planting an Odontoglossum orchid, Coelogyne or Cymbidium Division of Paphiopedilum Orchids Back Bulb Propagation of Orchids Propagating Orchids There are six main techniques currently used to propagate orchids and these are: division, back bulbs, keiki, aerial cuttings, meristem or tissue culture, and seed . All of the techniques are discussed in detail below and all but two are commonly employed in the home or greenhouse. The two which aren't commonly employed at home are propagation by seed and meristem tissue culture as these need laboratory conditions to maintain sterility. Firstly we will take a look at division, the most commonly used method of propagating orchids DIVISIONDivision simply means splitting the plant in to two or more parts each with at least one new shoot and each will produce a fully grown mostly flowering size plant that is capable of flowering the following season This is one of the simplest methods of producing more plants of the same variety or species. Many new to growing orchids are apprehensive about cutting their treasured plant in to two or more parts but there are reasons that this is not only useful in terms of increasing your stock but beneficial to the plant. Splitting a plant will often encourage the plant to produce more shoots of a better quality and with much more vigor than would be the case if left to it's own devises. The reason for this new vigor is entirely natural and is the plants response to being placed under threat and of course the introduction of new fresh potting medium which the plant will take full advantage of. Only divide plants where each division will have at least three back bulbs and each division should have at least one new growth. If your division has less than three back bulbs then it may not have enough strength to flower the following season and may take three or more years to come back to flowering size. Division of plants is best undertaken in the early spring just as new growth starts, this will ensure that each division has a full growing season to establish itself so that it can flower the following season."

Building the pyramids step by step A new method by Franz Löhner Which steps were necessary from quarrying the stones to transporting them to the Giza plateau? How can the stones be transported up the flank of the pyramid and when was the building project completed with placing the pyramidion on the top of the pyramid? Stone quarries and transport down the Nile - Transport on land - The pyramid building yard - Planning the construction project - Construction steps - Workers needed - Sources Stone quarries and transport with boats on the Nile The main bulk of the stones used for the pyramid was quarried on the Giza plateau itself. White limestone for the casing was brought with barges on the Nile from Tura further southeast and the heavy granite beams for the Kings chamber and the Grand Gallery were brought from the Aswan quarries 934 km on the river to the south. Shipping the stone blocks down the Nile to Giza Quarrying stones for the pyramid Since Khufu's pyramid was the first where a lot of granite was used, Franz Löhner thinks, that iron tools were used, not as the accepted doctrine suggests copper tools. Copper tools can be used for limestones for certain purposes, but they wear down much to quickly to be of any use with the hard granite. Cutting granite with iron tools Transport on land with sledges on tracks and the rope roll Stones had to be transported from the harbor and from the adjacent quarries to the building yard which was situated close to the pyramid. The ancient Egyptians didn't know the horse or the wheel yet and used sledges to transport stones. Franz Löhner thinks, that they build wooden tracks for the sledges, since that is much easier than hauling the sledges on bare rock, mud bricks or gravel."

A: Quick Answer Anchors can symbolize different things depending on context; the anchor can be a simple allusion to nautical life, but it can also have a religious meaning, particularly for Christians.

Marine are some of the most recognizable images in the country. The following essay provides a general overview of the Eagle, Globe, and Anchor and the various forms it has taken over the last two hundred years. The Eagle, Globe, and Anchor—the most distinct of all Marine Corps marks—has a long and storied heritage as the emblem for the Marine Corps. As an emblem of the Marine Corps, It is the basis for its flag, its seal, its branch-of-service insignia, and many of its logos. Marine Corps Branch of Service Insignia Distinct from the Marine Corps Emblem is the Marine Corps branch of service insignia. The branch of service insignia is based on the Marine Corps Emblem, but it does not include the “SEMPER FIDELIS” scroll in the eagle’s beak—an eagle on top of a globe showing the Western Hemisphere, in front of a fouled anchor. There are two types of Marine Corps branch of service insignia: the officer’s insignia and the enlisted insignia. The officer’s insignia is made of gold- and silver-colored metal for dress insignia and is non-glossy black for service insignia—with the proportions of the insignia elements dependent on the size of the globe, which is determined by whether or not it is used on the collar, dress cap, or service cap. The enlisted insignia is made of gold-colored metal for dress and is non-glossy black for service insignia."

Flags such as those for the Army, Marines, Navy, Air Force, and Coast Guard have a unique emblem design and theme, yet there are commonalities regarding symbolism of traditions, power, and strength. Significance of Military Flag Emblems The American Flag has been honored by millions. It represents each state with its own star, within a blue rectangle in the corner. The thirteen stripes, alternating in red and white, represent the original colonies. Each color has a meaning too: white means purity and innocence, red is for valor and bravery, and blue is representative of vigilance, perseverance, and justice. While the significance and symbolism of the Flag of the United States is widely known, the five branches of the military also have their own symbols and emblems. These American service flags are representative of the country’s rich history and the struggles which have been undertaken to protect the nation and its people. Each military flag has an emblem with similarities and differences to that of its counterparts. General Themes Eagle The bald eagle has been an emblem of the United States since the late 1700s."

Most of what I have deals with Christianity, but anchor tattoos also represent sailors who have crossed the Atlantic, those who have been in the Navy, and also just for those who enjoy sailing. Here's what I have saved, though. It's not only dealing with Christianity: It also deals with simply it's symbolism. Anchor Meaning While the earliest forms of an anchor being used as a symbol harkens all the way back to the early Christians. They would often use the anchor as a hidden symbol for the cross. This was often used to show that they were Christian while escaping persecution from the Greeks. The anchor tattoo design has become a symbol for stability and a strong foundation.

Now it would be useful to see what the graphic is positioned relative to. Behind the scenes, when you position a floating graphic, Word is \"\"anchoring\"\" the graphic relative to whatever you've positioned the graphic by (paragraph, page, and so on). For example, if you've positioned the graphic relative to a paragraph, the anchor appears at the start of the paragraph. Even if you've positioned the graphic by dragging it where you wanted, it still has an anchor. You can move an anchor by dragging it to a different position in the document.

Every tattoo or ‘Flash’ is a personal statement but there are certain common meanings. Here are a few of our favourite Tattoo Meanings. SWALLOW TATTOOSIn addition to indicating that a sailor had sailed 5000 miles, swallow tattoos are also associated with the idea of return. This \"\"return\"\" symbolism is rooted in two ideas. The first was the swallow's famous migration pattern, always returning home to San Juan Capistrano. Second, it was believed that if a sailor dies at sea, birds carry his soul home to heaven. ANCHOR TATTOOSAt sea, the anchor is the most secure object in a sailor's life, making it the perfect representation of stability. This is why you'll often see anchor tattoos emblazoned with \"\"Mom\"\" or the name of a sailor's sweetheart (the people who keep them grounded). Anchors have become popular within general tattoo culture over the years, but the symbolism is still the same."

"text": "Anchor tattoo meaning: Why do people get anchor tattoos? Posted on January 23, 2012 by Lior Anchor tattoos are one of the oldest tattoo designs in the West and they are still popular today. Why do people get anchor tattoos? What does the anchor symbol mean?1. People used an anchor as a symbol of their Christianity In early Christianity, Christians were persecuted by the ruling Romans. To identify themselves as Christians to one another and simultaneously lie low from anti-Christian threats, they used secret symbols like the anchor, which was chosen for its resemblance to a cross. The anchor’s nature of strongly holding ships steady even in stormy weather strengthened the analogy of the anchor to religion. The religious use of the anchor was used to decorate Christian buildings to mark them as safe houses for fellow Christians seeking refuge. Anchor symbols can still be seen to be decorating some ancient buildings and Christian catacombs to this day. Used in this religious way, the anchor is called the “ Crux Dissimulata ” which means the “dissimilar cross” or the “disguised cross” in Latin."

"text": "Signs125 Stunning Anchor Tattoos (With Rich Meaning)A long time ago, it was believed that anchor tattoos belonged on those who worked in businesses associated with the sea. That could mean sailors, seamen, navy personnel and others who worked in the deep blue seas and sailed on the beautiful and mighty oceans. Recently, the scene has changed and now the anchor tattoo has gained quite a bit of popularity. In fact, the anchor tattoo is no longer always associated with the seafarers. People in the rock scene have begun to add their own flavor and design to this tattoo and are doing so with a great deal of enthusiasm! It has also become the design of choice with the fairer sex and it looks pretty awesome. It’s also grown in popularity among the Christian circles as a symbol of strength and stability. Lots of missionaries can be found around the world with a small anchor inscribed on their wrist, behind their ear and on their ankle. The anchor tattoo has meanings that are far greater than just the sea and the ships that it holds steady. In fact, in the past, it was believed that the anchor design was used to camouflage and shelter the symbol of the Holy Cross."

Anchorage’s extended summer daylight hours pack in a lot of adventure, especially during summer solstice. Between March 19 and September 23, Anchorage gets more hours of daily sunlight than anywhere in the other 49 states. Alaska adventures fill all those daylight hours. Hiking, biking, flightseeing and dog sledding continue well past 8 p.m. Restaurants make use of decks or set out bistro tables on the side walk. The long summer holds a special treat for golfers. Tee times can be as late as 10 p.m. for each of Anchorage's three 18-hole golf courses. On June 21, Anchorage gets 22 hours of functional daylight. But the midnight sun still hangs in the sky a long time even after sundown, the sun merely dips under the horizon. The streetlights don’t even flicker on."

Daylight Saving Time Zones During Daylight Saving Time (DST) the time zone name and time changes. The words “daylight” or “summer” are then usually included in the name, and the local time is usually set forward 1 hour. For example, California uses Pacific Daylight Time (PDT) during the DST period with a UTC offset of UTC-7, but Pacific Standard Time (PST) with an offset of UTC-8 during the rest of the year.

Alaska has LONG days and short nights in the summer, and SHORT days and long nights in the winter. But unless you're north of the Arctic Circle, there's at least an hour of light each day.

"text": "Anchorage Weather Protected by the Chugach Mountains and warmed by currents of the Pacific Ocean, Anchorage’s climate is mild. Summer temperatures here get into the low 70s. In winter, high temps in the mid 20s keep plenty of snow on the ground. On long summer days, the sun still sets (for a few hours), and that means that even the shortest winter days still have more than 7 hours of functional daylight. Location Anchorage is near 61 degrees north latitude: about as far north as Stockholm, Sweden. To reach the Arctic Circle, you’d have to travel north another 400 miles. Alaska is a big place, and varied terrain means many different climates in the state, from Pacific Northwest coastal rainforest to permafrost and tundra in the far north. Anchorage’s special location keeps it drier than Southeast Alaska, warmer than the interior in winter, and less windy than in the southwest portion of the state. Packing Suggestions Packing for a visit to Anchorage can be summed up in one word: layers. The key to comfort in Alaska is layering clothing."

Skiers and snowboarders have three choices for alpine skiing within 45 minutes of downtown Anchorage – all of which offer stunning views, something for every skill level and the most awesome terrain found anywhere. The long season includes enough daylight to ski for an average of 7.5 hours a day in December and a stunning 16 hours a day in April. Anchorage Ski Areas Beginners and those short on time can zip to Hilltop Ski Area. Tucked neatly into the southeast corner of Anchorage, Hilltop is just 15 minutes from downtown. Skiers and snowboarders glide down the gentle slopes that weave against the base of Chugach State Park, while snowboarders hone their aerial skills on the popular “Mongoline,” a permanent halfpipe. Adjacent to Hilltop are the Karl Eid ski jumping facility and the Nordic trails of Far North Bicentennial Park. Arctic Valley ski area is just 10 miles north of downtown at the end of Arctic Valley Road. Originally established for military recreation in the 1940s, the valley’s powder-filled courses take the serious or amateur skier or snowboarder through four open bowls, a terrain park and 25 trails holding 250 inches of annual snowfall. Two chair lifts and a T-bar deliver snow seekers to 1,214 vertical feet of mountain madness."

There are 144 species in 17 genera, found in the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans. Anchovies are usually classified as an oily fish. [ 1] They are small, green fish with blue reflections due to a silver longitudinal stripe that runs from the base of the caudal fin. They range from 2 centimetres (0.79 in) to 40 centimetres (16 in) in adult length, [2] and the body shape is variable with more slender fish in northern populations. A traditional method of processing and preserving anchovies is to gut and salt them in brine, allow them to mature, and then pack them in oil or salt. This results in a characteristic strong flavor and the flesh turns deep grey. Anchovies pickled in vinegar, as with Spanish boquerones en vinagre, are milder and the flesh retains a white color. In Roman times, anchovies were the base for the fermented fish sauce garum. Garum had a sufficiently long shelf life for long-distance commerce, and was produced in industrial quantities."

Since this condiment is highly concentrated, it can be used in small amounts to create an immense impact. It has a very distinctive salty, fishy flavor with a hint of sweetness from added sugar, and can be used in soups, sauces, and on sandwiches. Some recipes specifically call for anchovy paste, especially recipes from Southern Europe. Anchovies are small silvery fishes in the Engraulidae family, related to herring. They are native to the Mediterranean, and have been used as a food fish for centuries. The fish are well known for gathering in giant schools which may contain hundreds of individuals. After being caught, anchovies are sold fresh or preserved. Preserved anchovies are often canned with oil, and they are used extensively in cuisines throughout Southern Europe."

They are generally found in large schools, which makes them very easy to catch in large quantities. One of the most popular places to catch anchovies is the Mediterranean, which is why they are such a large part of European, Middle Eastern, and North African cuisines. Their taste is not pleasant to many people, but for those with certain health conditions, you might want to learn to love these salty little fish, which are normally sold in tins or cans and can be put on pizzas, sandwiches, in Caesar salad dressing, and tomato sauce.

How to Use Anchovy Paste Know Your Ingredients: Anchovy Paste July 26, 2010 by Susannah Chen 33 Shares Does the notion of using anchovy paste in cooking sound fishy? If so, perhaps it's time to reconsider your stance: Anchovy paste is a versatile, convenient method of enhancing flavor in everything from soup to nuts. Widely available in specialty stores, anchovy paste is a potent, salty paste made from ground anchovy fillets, water or olive oil, vinegar, and sugar to mellow out the ingredient's fish flavor. ( It can also be made from scratch by mashing cured anchovies with a drizzle of olive oil until smooth.) Because the paste can have an overwhelming taste and smell, it's best used in small doses. For this reason, it's often sold in multiuse tubes, which, once opened, keep for up to several months. A touch of anchovy paste can be used to add a savory, umami quality to dishes — one that's not so much briny as it is piquant. Use it to boost stews, soups, and braises, or to perk up tomato sauce or a meat rub. Personally, I love using the ingredient to up the quotient in a Caesar salad dressing."

It's especially bad if others ARE catching fish. If you're the so-called expert, people expect you to catch fish! Luckily that scenario doesn't occur too often. I normally catch my fair share of fish and sometimes lead the hit parade. However, I've fished long enough, and experienced enough of the former situations, that I would never gloat when doing better than others. Still, I'm proud when I'm able to catch fish because I know that I'm a good pier fisherman (and I paid my dues to reach this point).

"text": "Campanelle Pasta With Roasted Garlic Sauce4 comments December 1, 2014Share this: As a food blogger, I’m often tempted to give each recipe a really creative flair. This was definitely the case with this dish as well. I thought about adding some mushrooms, green beans, asparagus or peas to give it a more unique twist, more color, flavor and texture. I also thought about adding a crunchy breadcrumb topping. All of these additions would be great. However, sometimes less is more. Pasta holds a really great charm for me. Most of the time, dinner comes together in as much time as it takes to cook the pasta. That’s a huge benefit on many counts. This recipe also makes good use of already cooked poultry."

"text": "Anchovies It is a tiny common salt water forage fish that has a very strong flavor. Anchovies are rich in healthy protein, essential vitamins (vitamin E and D) and minerals (calcium). They impart a salty and not a fishy flavor when added in dressings. Usage Although they are eaten fresh, anchovies are commonly consumed in their cured form. They are usually filleted, brined and preserved in oil. This type of preservation gives them a strong flavor and makes the flesh turn dark grey. Because of the strong flavor, they are used in several sauces and condiments, including Worcestershire sauce, Caesar salad dressing and various fish sauces. Availability The cured and preserved anchovies are mostly imported whereas their fresh or dried consumption is very common in the coastal regions of India majorly, Kerala and West Bengal where their maximum landings are found. Note: Dried, preserved or fresh anchovies cannot be substituted for one another in recipes as the flavors of the three types are very different. Nutritional Value 1."

"text": "Oiled, salted or marinated anchovies are popular purchases. ( Don Bartletti / Los Angeles Times)A lot of what it takes to come around to the anchovy side of life has to do with knowing which anchovies to buy and how to use them. Below is a basic tutorial on what anchovies I use and how. The most readily available anchovies are anchovies packed in oil. Typical supermarket varieties are brined for two months before being rinsed, filleted, gutted and packed. The result of the brining is a less intense anchovy experience. My biggest problem with these anchovies is that you have no idea what kind of oil they're packed in, and it usually isn't very good. Still, I know they have their place. Think of them as anchovies for beginners. Using these, you get an anchovy flavor, but they aren't going to give you an anchovy revelation."

Their sharp taste gives a subtle flavor boost to salads, pizza and pasta dishes and sauces. Whether you've got whole, canned, oil-packed or filleted anchovies, they all need to be stored properly. Things You'll Need Glass jar or plastic container (optional)Olive oil Place the anchovies in a sealable glass jar or plastic food storage container. Choose one that fits the anchovies well and doesn't leave a lot of extra room. Pour olive oil over the fish to create a barrier between the air and your anchovies. Seal the container tightly. Place the anchovies in the refrigerator. They're safe to store for two to three months."

Consensus among music historians has been to start the era around 1400, with the end of the medieval era, and to close it around 1600, with the beginning of the Baroque period, therefore commencing the musical Renaissance about a hundred years after the beginning of the Renaissance as it is understood in other disciplines. As in the other arts, the music of the period was significantly influenced by the developments which define the Early Modern period: the rise of humanistic thought; the recovery of the literary and artistic heritage of Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome; increased innovation and discovery; the growth of commercial enterprises; the rise of a bourgeois class; and the Protestant Reformation. From this changing society emerged a common, unifying musical language, in particular, the polyphonic style (this means music with multiple, independent melody lines performed simultaneously) of the Franco-Flemish school, whose greatest master was Josquin des Prez. The invention of the printing press in 1440 [ citation needed] made it cheaper and easier to distribute music and musical theory texts on a wider geographic scale and to more people. Prior to the invention of printing, songs and music that were written down and music theory texts had to be hand-copied, a time-consuming and expensive process."

"text": "\"The term alma mater is Latin for “nourishing mother,” and it is used in two different ways in modern English. In the first sense, it is an educational institution, classically a college, and in the second sense, it is an anthem or fight song of an educational institution. Usually in the sense of an educational institution, the term is used in reference to an institution that someone has personally attended. When the term is used to describe an anthem, the speaker need not have attended the institution in question. Originally, alma mater was used as an honorific for some Latin goddesses who were viewed as kind, nurturing, or loving. In the 1700s, the term came to be adopted in reference to British institutions of higher learning, and the practice spread to other regions of the world. The University of Bologna, the world's oldest continually running institution, even integrated the term into its motto, which is alma mater studorium, or “nurturing mother of studies. ”While this term is most commonly used in reference to colleges, some people use it in discussions of high schools, especially private high schools, preparatory schools, and other institutions that are perceived as more elite than public or ordinary high schools. It is appropriate to refer to any institution of higher learning in this way, whether one has graduated or is still attending. In the sense of a place of study, this term probably arose as a slangy shorthand."

The title is \"\"He Is\"\" and it starts with clean guitars playing a simple but sad melody, it actually sounds like a typical Christian worship song. In fact even once the triumphant chorus comes in \"\"He is/He's the shining and the light without whom I cannot see\"\" sounds like a line you'd hear in some white guy with an acoustic guitar worship song, but then \"\"And he is/Insurrection, he is spite, he's the thing that makes me be\"\" you realize the song isn't about God, it's about Satan, then the following verses get darker. Ghost's music, as compared to other metal bands singing about Satan, feel like actual worship music and this song is the ultimate parody of it.

I really enjoy their music, even if I don't really relate to their lyrical content (is it all part of their \"\"act\"\"?) I am going out on a limb and going to assume that \"\"He\"\" is the Devil / Satan and in essence this song talks about the \"\"saviour\"\" that He is ... quite ironic considering that the saviour is generally seen as Jesus."

I wonder how many taxpayer dollars funded this brainstorm.

The study, led by Michael Hurwitz, a doctoral student at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, revealed that applicants to a parent’s alma mater had, on average, seven times the odds of admission of nonlegacy applicants, The New York Times reported. By comparison, students whose parents did graduate work there or who had a grandparent, sibling, aunt or uncle who attended the school were only twice as likely to be admitted. “It’s fundamentally unfair because it’s a preference that advantages the already advantaged,” said Richard D.

( 500photos.com via Pexels)We all know about the one percent — America’s ultra-wealthy whose wealth has exploded in recent years to towering heights. What we don’t talk about so much is the twenty percent — America’s upper middle class, who have also done very well, thank you, while the 80 percent has flat-lined. The twenty percent, says my guest today, sees itself as deserving, meritocratic winners, but they are buttressing their status — and their childrens’ — with old-fashioned class barriers.

"text": "\"For other uses, see Alma mater (disambiguation). The Alma Mater statue by Mario Korbel, at the entrance of the University of Havana in Cuba. Alma mater ( Latin: alma \"\"nourishing/kind\"\", mater \"\"mother\"\"; pl. [ rarely used] almae matres) is an allegorical Latin phrase for a university or college. In English, this is largely a U. S. usage referring to a school or university from which an individual has graduated or to a song or hymn associated with a school. [ 1] The phrase is variously translated as \"\"nourishing mother\"\", \"\"nursing mother\"\", or \"\"fostering mother\"\", suggesting that a school provides intellectual nourishment to its students. [ 2] Fine arts will often depict educational institutions using a robed woman as a visual metaphor. Before its current usage, Alma mater was an honorific title for various Latin mother goddesses, especially Ceres or Cybele, [3] and later in Catholicism for the Virgin Mary. It entered academic usage when the University of Bologna adopted the motto Alma Mater Studiorum (\"\"nurturing mother of studies\"\"), which describes its heritage as the oldest operating university in the Western world [4]. It is related to alumnus, a term used for a university graduate that literally means a \"\"nursling\"\" or \"\"one who is nourished\"\".

Book of Coming Forth by Day in hieroglyphs This detail scene, from the Papyrus of Hunefer (c. 1275 BCE), shows the scribe Hunefer's heart being weighed on the scale of Maat against the feather of truth, by the jackal-headed Anubis. The ibis-headed Thoth, scribe of the gods, records the result. If his heart equals exactly the weight of the feather, Hunefer is allowed to pass into the afterlife. If not, he is eaten by the waiting chimeric devouring creature Ammit composed of the deadly crocodile, lion, and hippopotamus. Vignettes such as these were a common illustration in Egyptian books of the dead. The Book of the Dead is an ancient Egyptian funerary text, used from the beginning of the New Kingdom (around 1550 BCE) to around 50 BCE.

"text": "\"Ancient Healthby Gary Webster 0 Comments18 Aug 2015 SHAREPhoto Credit: University College London In the 1840s, Vienna's Allegmeine Krakenhaus was one of the world’s foremost teaching hospitals. However, in its maternity wards, one in six women died in childbirth, a shocking mortality rate, but not dissimilar to any other in the western world. Reasons given by obstetricians included constipation, fear, delayed lactation and poisonous air. Upon death, autopsies were performed on these women by physicians, who immediately after the procedure, without washing their hands or using sterile gloves, performed pelvic examinations on the living in the maternity wards!Early in the 1840s, Ignaz Semmelweis took charge of one of the obstetrical wards. After three years of observation, he discovered that it was the women who were examined by doctors immediately after performing the autopsies, who died. He therefore ruled that all doctors participating in autopsies must thoroughly wash their hands before examining any patients in his ward. The death rate in his ward immediately plummeted. However, the prejudiced doctors did not like his “new” ideas. His contract was not renewed, his rule overturned and the mortality rate soared once again. Unknown to Semmelweis, his progressive ideas and procedures had been practiced thousands of years before!Ancient Egyptian Medicine In its time, medical knowledge and practice in ancient Egypt was likewise revolutionary, with Egypt’s physicians showing great initiative and an impressive knowledge of the human body, its organ function, system’s workings and the treatment of illness and disease."

"text": "\"► General Features Many different definitions of ritual may be formulated. Let us understand \"\"ritual\"\" as a special event in time and space, organized in terms of a shared sequence of symbolical, formal acts and utterances, serving the goals, values and expectations of an individual, a group, a society, a cultural form, or a world order, whatever these aims may be. In this sensu lato, the \"\"obsessive rituals\"\" of the compulsive neurotic are included. In the specific, much narrower case of religious rituals, these privileged deeds & words may involve : induction, consecration, initiation, passage, commemoration, celebration, invocation, evocation, etc. They always set aside a totaliter aliter, and are intended to link the part with this larger whole. The latter is given a mental architecture thanks to a set of symbols of transcendence and/or immanence. These may be theist or atheist, monotheist or henotheist, as in Amenism. In magical rituals, the intention is to pacify, to grow, to shield or to destroy : protection, defence, lawful combat, execration, healing, the restoration of a state of affairs, the reversal of misfortune (caused by negative energies), healing, natural evolution etc. are specific examples. Magic aims at the Earth, religion at the sky."

"text": "\"Articleby Paul De Mola published on 15 May 2013Material Objects & Cultures Material objects convey volumes about the people who possessed them. Cultures and societies in every generation are in part classified - either correctly or incorrectly - by the objects or symbols they select and how they are displayed. Typically, the formal study of society is the purview of anthropologists and social scientists who categorize ‘people’ into cultural assemblages which are extrapolated from commonly held ‘features’ (e.g. clothing, jewellery, and music) and their interpersonal behaviour (e.g. occupation, political activities, rand eligious practices) which socially defines them. Hence, any answer to the ‘meaning of things’ in society, generally speaking, is a structured hypothesis. Amulets are an example of such culturally defining objects, and they satisfied a variety of roles in the society of Ancient Egypt. Specifically, they possessed complex socio-religious meanings which are reflected in their diverse designs and, therefore, may be analyzed within ontological/phenomenological and/or structural/poststructural dichotomies. In this article, I shall discuss Egyptian amulets as objects of human expression; exploring their symbolism and utilization in socio-cultural functions. Scarab Life Before Death Culturally, amulets were intimately associated with the greater Egyptian religious system, which was a state system whose earliest cosmological views of nature contained a cyclical perception of life, death, and rebirth. Typically, amulets were worn as jewellery by both men and women in social settings. However, they were not worn as a mere ornamental feature or simply as a sign of religious devotion."

This argument is easy to dismiss for those who reisde in the culture of power and unknowingly receive undue benefits and privileges simply because of the color of their skin. However for those who have grown up in a racist society, been brain-washed and discriminated against, it is a very important issue and needs to be recognized. You're right, Egyptians did not have to make such distinctions because they were in power and had not suffered the eradication of their history, identity and worth."

"text": "\"Ancient Egyptian Mummies Most often when we think of mummification, what comes to mind is ancient Egypt, especially the times of the Pharaohs. Although mummification existed in other cultures, eternal life was the main focus of all Ancient Egyptians, which meant preserving the body forever. Egyptian culture believed the body was home in the afterlife to a person's Ka and Ba, without which it would be condemned to eternal wandering. Ancient Egyptian Beliefs in the Afterlife Canopic Jars The removed internal organs were separately treated and, during much of Egyptian history, placed in jars of clay or stone. These so-called Canopic Jars were closed with stoppers fashioned in the shape of four heads -- human, baboon, falcon, and jackal - representing the four protective spirits called the Four Sons of Horus. The heart was removed to be weighed against a feather representing Ma'at to determine moral righteousness. The brain was sucked out of the cranial cavity and thrown away because the Egyptian's thought it was useless. Personal belongings were usually placed in the tomb to make the Ka more at home and to assist the dead in their journey into the afterlife. Text was read from the Book of the Dead and the ritual of \"\"opening the mouth\"\" was performed before the tomb was sealed. Embalming The actual process of embalming as practiced in ancient Egypt was governed by definite religious ritual."

"text": "\"Was Imhotep the Biblical Joseph from Genesis? In Articles, Christian News, Featured, Science and Technology by JD Rucker February 9, 2015 2 Comments He was the leader of Egypt, second only to his Pharaoh. He was responsible for planning the distribution of grain to the Egyptians during seven years of drought, giving his Pharaoh ownership over nearly all of the lands and making him rich beyond comprehension. He was revered by the Egyptians as well as many other nations who relied on his plan for their survival. His name was Imhotep. Wait a minute. If you’ve read the Book of Genesis, you probably think that I just attributed the works of Joseph, son of Jacob, to someone else. In reality, I described a man that most Egyptologists thought was a myth until 1928. The stories about Imhotep and the discoveries that have surrounded him over the last century are so similar to the story of Joseph from Genesis that some are speculating the two may be one in the same. Archeologists are, by the very nature of their profession, storytellers."

It lasted for over 3000 years from 3150 BC to 30 BC. The Nile River The civilization of Ancient Egypt was located along the Nile River in northeast Africa. The Nile was the source of much of the Ancient Egypt's wealth. Great Egyptian cities grew up along the Nile as the Egyptian people became experts in irrigation and were able to use the water from the Nile to grow rich and profitable crops. The Nile provided food, soil, water, and transportation for the Egyptians. Great floods would come each year and would provide fertile soil for growing food. Pyramids of Giza by Ricardo Liberato Kingdoms and Periods Historians usually group the history of Ancient Egypt into three major kingdoms called the Old Kingdom, the Middle Kingdom, and the New Kingdom. It was during these times that Ancient Egypt was at its strongest. The times between the Kingdoms are called intermediate periods."

Nor could the deceased do without the help of magic which was furnished him in the form of objects and texts, and to make afterlife acceptable to the wealthy they were given statues, clothing, furniture, servants, weapons and tools. Many objects found in tombs were ordinary things: tools, pots, chests, baskets, amulets, etc which the Egyptians used every day. Others, like censers, were employed in religious ceremonies in general and some were specially made for the occasion: coffins, masks, ushabtis, models or scrolls with spells designed to help a person to survive in the afterworld.

"text": "\"THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE GREAT PYRAMID OF GIZA AND THE BOOK OF THE DEADINTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEWIt has been proposed that the Great Pyramid of Giza is the Egyptian \"\"Book of the Dead\"\" symbolized in stone. This was first proposed by Marsham Adams in 1895. He said that the Egyptian Book of the Dead refers to an \"\"ideal structure and to the passages and chambers therein, and that these passages and chambers followed precisely the order and description of those of the Great Pyramid \"\"Above: The dead before Osiris, the supreme judge\"\"The intimate connection,\"\" writes Adams, \"\"between the secret doctrine of Egypt's most venerated books, and the secret significance of her most venerable monument, seems impossible to separate, and each form illustrates and interpenetrates the other. As we peruse the dark utterances and recognize the mystic allusions of the Book, we seem to stand amid the profound darkness enwrapping the whole interior of the building... Dimly before our eyes, age after age, the sacred procession of the Egyptian dead moves silently along as they pass to the tribunal of Osiris. In vain do we attempt to trace their footsteps till we enter with them into the Hidden Places and penetrate the secret of the House of Light (compare the ancient Egyptian name for the Great Pyramid - \"\"Khut,\"\" or \"\"Light\"\"). But no sooner do we tread the chambers aaaaa replica watches of the mysterious Pyramid than the teaching of the Sacred Books seems lit up as with a tongue of flame\"\". Marsham Adams proposed that the unique system of passages and chambers (particularly the Grand Gallery, obviously unnecessary in a tomb), has an allegorical significance only explained by reference to the Egyptian \"\"Book of the Dead\"\". The famous Egyptologist, Sir Gaston Maspero endorsed his thesis and added \"\"The Pyramids and the Book of the Dead reproduce the same original, the one in words, the other in stone.\"\" Can we find meaning and answers to the mystery of the Great Pyramid by studying the Egyptian \"\"Book of the Dead\"\" and its relationship to the Great Pyramid? What is the Egyptian \"\"Book of the Dead\"\"?"

Now. Thoth's Journey Scribes The Ancient Egyptian scribe, or sesh, was a person educated in the arts of writing (using both hieroglyphics and hieratic scripts, and from the second half of the first millennium BCE the demotic script, used as shorthand and for commerce) and dena (arithmetics). Sons of scribes were brought up in the same scribal tradition, sent to school and, upon entering the civil service, inherited their fathers' positions. Much of what is known about ancient Egypt is due to the activities of its scribes. Monumental buildings were erected under their supervision, administrative and economic activities were documented by them, and tales from the mouths of Egypt's lower classes or from foreign lands survive thanks to scribes putting them in writing. Scribes were also considered part of the royal court and did not have to pay tax or join the military. The scribal profession had companion professions, the painters and artisans who decorated reliefs and other relics with scenes, personages, or hieroglyphic text. A scribe was exempt from the heavy manual labor required of the lower classes, or corvee labor. A scribe's duties ranged from writing letters for townspeople, to recording harvests, to keeping accounts for the Egyptian army. Above these scribes were more scholarly scribes, who had advanced to higher positions such as priests, doctors, and engineers."

"text": "\"Smart News Keeping you current The Statue of Liberty Was Originally a Muslim Woman“The New Colossus” was actually born in Egypt (R. Ian Lloyd/Masterfile/Corbis)By Erin Blakemoresmithsonian.com November 24, 2015The United States has debated immigration since the country’s founding, and the Statue of Liberty—a potent symbol for immigrants—is often invoked as an argument for why we should usher in those who seek safety and opportunity with open arms. A little-known fact about Lady Liberty adds an intriguing twist to today’s debate about refugees from the Muslim world: As pointed out by The Daily Beast ’s Michael Daly in a recent op-ed , the statue itself was originally intended to represent a female Egyptian peasant as a Colossus of Rhodes for the Industrial Age. That might be surprising to people more familiar with the statue’s French roots than its Arab ones. After all, the statue’s structure was designed by Alexandre-Gustave Eiffel (yes, that Eiffel), and Lady Liberty was given to the United States by France for its centennial to celebrate the alliance of the two countries formed during the French Revolution. The statue’s designer, Frédéric-Auguste Bartholdi, was also French, but he found inspiration in a very different place: Egypt. In 1855, he visited Nubian monuments at Abu Simbel, which feature tombs guarded by gigantic colossus figures. Bartholdi became fascinated by the ancient architecture, developing what the National Park Service calls a “passion for large-scale public monuments and colossal structures.” Eventually, he channeled that passion into a proposal for the inauguration of the Suez Canal. Bartholdi envisioned a colossal monument featuring a robe-clad woman representing Egypt to stand at Port Said, the city at the northern terminus of the canal in Egypt. To prep for this undertaking, Barry Moreno, author of multiple books about the statue, writes that Bartholdi studied art like the Colossus, honing the concept for a figure called Libertas who would stand at the canal. “"

"text": "\"Ancient Egyptian Namesby Jimmy Dunn writing as Jefferson Monet Anyone who has studied the ancient pharaohs knows that their names were important from the earliest times through the end of ancient Egyptian history, frequently offering clues to their personality, the period in which they lived and particularly, the gods that they most worshipped. But it was not only the kings who placed great store in names. All Egyptian's names were carefully chosen, apparently for commoners and royalty alike, though one major difference is that the names of common Egyptians were not preserved in cartouches, as were those of royalty.. At times, some of the naming techniques of the ancient Egyptians could also lead to considerable confusion. This is obvious among some kings, who had a number of different names, but at times also changed their names, particularly when they inherited or otherwise ascended to the throne of Egypt. Furthermore, some individuals seem to possibly have had different names in different parts of Egypt. It has been suggested, for example, that the first born son of Ramesses II, Amunhikhopshef, may have been called Sethikhopshjef in the north of Egypt. Hence, the god Amun of the south was used in Upper Egypt while the favored deity, Seth, was used in Lower Egypt. The possibility that people could be called one name in one location, and a different one elsewhere, has some justification in the names of gods. For example, chapter 142 of the Book of the Dead carries the heading \"\"Knowing the names of Osiris in his every seat where he wishes to be\"\", and is an extensive list of geographically local versions of Osiris. However, it should be noted that this may have been a complete name change, or possibly even another son of Ramesses II."

"text": "Middle Eastern religion, any of the religious beliefs, attitudes, and practices developed in the ancient Middle East (extending geographically from Iran to Egypt and from Anatolia and the Aegean Sea to the Arabian Peninsula and temporally from about 3000 to 330 bc, when Alexander the Great conquered much of the area). They have had an enduring influence on Western civilization. While this article treats only those religions of Middle Eastern antiquity that have not survived to modern times, special attention is given in the introduction to their role as antecedents of the major Western religions ( i.e., Judaism, Christianity, and Islām), all of which originated in the region. For full treatment of these “inheritors” of the Middle Eastern tradition, including also the surviving Zoroastrianism and Parsiism, see under the names of the individual religions. General considerations The ancient Middle East constituted an ecumene. The term ecumene comes from the Greek word oikoumenē, which means the inhabited world and designates a distinct cultural-historical community. The material effects of the commercial and cultural interconnections that permeated the component regions of the ancient Middle Eastern ecumene are richly supplied by archaeological excavations, which provide evidence of the spread of architectural, ceramic, metallurgical, and other products of ancient Middle Eastern man’s industry. Manufacturing and services tended to be monopolized by professional guilds, including religious personnel specializing in sacrifices, oracles, divination, and other kinds of priestcraft. The mobility of such guilds throughout the entire area helps to explain the spread of specific religious ideas and techniques over great distances. Just as guild potters spread ceramic forms and methods, so also guild priests spread their religious concepts and practices from the Indian Ocean to the Aegean Sea, and from the Nile River to Central Asia."

"text": "\"The pharaoh - man, ruler and god The term pharaoh, pr-a A [ 22] - lit. great house, in the sense of palace, goes back to the Old Kingdom [ 19]. As part of the royal titulary it came into use only in the early first millennium BCE, in monumental inscriptions possibly as late as the reign of Sheshong III. Horus giving the Double Crown to Pharaoh Temple of Ramses II at Abydos Source: V. Easy Ideally, for most of Egyptian history, one should not refer to the king as pharaoh, but as the kingship remained basically unchanged for millennia until the advent of Christianity and the abandonment of the traditional world view, referring to this intrinsically Egyptian institution as pharaonic is reasonable, even if at times anachronistic. The pharaohs were often referred to as nswt, [ 35] translated as 'King', and Hm, rendered as 'Majesty'. [ 25] Thus the official Sia-Khufu described himself in a rockinscription in the Upperegyptian Eastern Desert as jrj-jx,t-nsw.t (custodian of the king's property) jrr mrrt Hm=f (who does what His Majesty loves) [ 24]The royal titulary The Egyptians perceived clearly that their overlord fulfilled a number of essentially different roles. From the late Old Kingdom on the pharaoh bore five titles which reflected some of his functions: The oldest was the Horus name written inside a serekh, which he assumed when acceding to power as the heir to Horus, ruler of the world (i.e. Egypt)The name of the Two Ladies, the protective goddesses of Upper and Lower Egypt, since the first dynasty The Golden Horus name The name of enthronement as the king of the \"\"sedge and bee\"\", used since the fifth dynasty, it became the main name by which a pharaoh was known in antiquity. This name and the given name (see below) were written inside cartouches His given name as the son of Re (since the fourth dynasty, has become the name by which pharaohs are known today and to which we add ordinal numbers if needed)These five names were the titulary which were often recorded in full at the beginning of royal texts. Horemheb for instance is referred to in his coronation inscription as [Horus: Mighty Bull, Ready in Plans Favorite of the Two Goddesses: Great in Marvels in Karnak Golden Horus: Satis]fied with Truth, Creator of the Two Lands King of Upper and Lower Egypt, Lord of the Two Lands: Zeserkheprure, Setepnere Son of Re, Lord of Diadems: Beloved of Amon, Harmhab J. H. Breasted, Ancient Records of Egypt, Part Three, §24 People who came into contact with the king were aware of this complex presence.

Born to king Thutmose I and queen Aahmes in 1503 BC, She was believed to be the most loved of the three children. When her brothers died, she was placed in the most unlikely position where she found herself in line to ascend the throne of Egypt. The only drawback was that it was something very unprecedented. Even though she did not get the throne immediately, she did ascend to it in 1479 BC and proved herself to be an adept ruler. Before she got the throne of Egypt, it went to her husband and half brother Thutmose II. When she did get the throne, she carried herself with all the grace and strength expected of a ruler. She was also a very astute ruler and managed to rule for longer than any other queen in Egypt. Her reign ended in 1458 BC with her death and she was succeeded by Thutmose III. Childhood Hatshepsut was the daughter born, in 1503 BC, to king Thutmose I and queen Aahmes."

These pyramids meant a lot to the Egyptians. The pyramids were made for either the king or queens tomb. They wanted them so big and huge to show how great, strong, and powerful they were. The Egyptians did so much for the kings and queens because they believed that in their afterlife they will become one of the great gods or goddesses. That's why in their tomb there is so much gold and riches. The shape of the pyramid shows that it comes to a point at the top which is where the pharaohs sit. The slaves are at the bottom."

Credit: Miguel Cabezón Shutterstock Hatshepsut was the first female pharaoh of Egypt. She reigned between 1473 and 1458 B. C. Her name means “foremost of noblewomen. ”Her rule was relatively peaceful and she was able to launch a building program that would see the construction of a great temple at Deir el-Bahari at Luxor. She also launched a successful sea voyage to the land of Punt, a place located somewhere on the northeast coast of Africa, where they traded with the inhabitants, bringing back “marvels. ”Despite the apparent success of her reign, and a burial in the Valley of the Kings, her monuments would be defaced after her death, apparently by her co-ruler and step-son/nephew Thutmose III. The fact that a woman became pharaoh of Egypt was very unusual. “ In the history of Egypt during the dynastic period (3000 to 332 B. C.) there were only two or three women who managed to rule as pharaohs, rather than wielding power as the ‘great wife’ of a male king,” writes Egyptologist Ian Shaw in his book \"\"Exploring Ancient Egypt\"\" (Oxford University Press, 2003). Birth Hatshepsut, along with her sister Nefrubity, was the daughter of Pharaoh Thutmose I and his wife Ahmose. Thutmose I was a warrior king who launched successful campaigns into Nubia and Syria, expanding the territory under Egyptian rule."

Ancient Egypt also had dynasties. They were families who often ruled for a considerable number of years and did impressive things — such as building pyramids — during their rule. The history of ancient Egypt is divided into three main periods: the Old Kingdom (about 2,700-2,200 B. C.), the Middle Kingdom (2,050-1,800 B. C.), and the New Kingdom (about 1,550-1,100 B. C.)."

"text": "\"Pharaoh Akhenaten Akhenaten - meaning \"\"living spirit of Aten\"\" - known before the fifth year of his reign as Amenhotep IV (sometimes given its Greek form, Amenophis IV, and meaning Amun is Satisfied), was a Pharaoh of the Eighteenth dynasty of Egypt who ruled for 17 years and died perhaps in 1336 BC or 1334 BC. He is especially noted for abandoning traditional Egyptian polytheism and introducing worship centered on the Aten, which is sometimes described as monotheistic or henotheistic. An early inscription likens him to the sun as compared to stars, and later official language avoids calling the Aten a god, giving the solar deity a status above mere gods. He was born to Amenhotep III and his Chief Queen Tiyee and was their younger son. Akhenaten was not originally designated as the successor to the throne until the untimely death of his older brother, Thutmose. Amenhotep IV succeeded his father after Amenhotep III's death at the end of his 38-year reign, possibly after a short coregency lasting between either 1 to 2 years. Pharaoh Akhenaten was known as the Heretic King. He was the tenth King of the 18th Dynasty. Egyptologists are still tying to figure out what actually happened during his lifetime as much of the truth was buried after he died. Akhenaten lived at the peak of Egypt's imperial glory."

The plagues were ten disasters sent upon Egypt by God to convince Pharaoh to free the Israelite slaves from the bondage and oppression they had endured in Egypt for 400 years. When God sent Moses to deliver the children of Israel from bondage in Egypt, He promised to show His wonders as confirmation of Moses’ authority ( Exodus 3:20 ). This confirmation was to serve at least two purposes: to show the Israelites that the God of their fathers was alive and worthy of their worship and to show the Egyptians that their gods were nothing. The Israelites had been enslaved in Egypt for about 400 years and in that time had lost faith in the God of their fathers.

At times, Imhotep has been termed the \"\"Leonardo da Vinci\"\" of ancient Egypt, but in fact he was more than that. Da Vinci gained the reputation of a genius- Imhotep was eventually elevated to the status of a god. In Egypt's long list of \"\"gods\"\", very few were ever once living among them. Imhotep was. Manetho wrote that \"\"during his [Djoser of the 3rd Dynasty] reign lived Imouthes [i.e. Imhotep], who, because of his medical skill has the reputation of Asclepius [the Greek god of medicine] among the Egyptians and who was the inventor of the art of building with hewn stone.\"\""

The Egyptians believed that if the pharaoh's body could be mummified after death the pharaoh would live forever. The tombs were designed to protect the buried Pharaoh's body and his belongings. Where were they built? Most of the pyramids can be found on the western side of the Nile River, just into the dry desert. How does the dry desert help?

( November 2017)The question of the race of ancient Egyptians was raised historically as a product of the early racial concepts of the 18th and 19th centuries, and was linked to models of racial hierarchy primarily based on craniometry, anthropometry and genetics. A variety of views circulated about the racial identity of the Egyptians and the source of their culture. [ 1] These were typically identified in terms of a distinction between the Caucasoid and Negroid racial categories. Some scholars argued that ancient Egyptian culture was influenced by other Afroasiatic -speaking populations in Northeast Africa, the Maghreb, or the Middle East, while others pointed to influences from various Nubian groups or populations in Europe.

It is a famous point of contention for those overly concerned with “race,” specifically Afrocentrists, some of whom often make claims to the effect of Egyptian deities being “literally Black” because some were depicted with black or reddish-brown skin in some instances, and that Ancient Egyptian society, rather than being a multi-ethnic Afro-Asiatic mosaic * society as has been clearly and repeatedly demonstrated to the point of intuitive ubiquity, were originally and uniformly “Black Africans” by virtue of one of the several names for their homeland: Kemet, or “Black Land.” However, such claims furthering specific racial ideologies grossly decontextualize and distort the Ancient Egyptians’ codified systems of metaphor and depiction. These depictions are not always literal or true to life, particularly where the representation of Divine, Otherworldly beings and sacred concepts are concerned. In this article, I will attempt to clear the air by explaining what each of the major colors meant to the Ancient Egyptians, and how those colors were used. THE COLORS AND THEIR MEANINGThe Ancient Egyptian system of color symbolism was mostly but not entirely consistent throughout all regions and time periods. Colors, meanings for colors, and artistic conventions relative to color were revised or added to this system at various points of Ancient Egyptian history."

I became excited and thrilled as I got into this study of Genesis, and read extensive additional materials on that period and the ancient Middle East in general in 2003-4. I especially liked the culture and history, bringing the ancient events to a vivid real-life perspective. I taught some of the lessons as a substitute for our regular teacher. One of these was the story of the Hebrews going into Egypt. This involved some good details in the Genesis text about the settlement of Jacob's (Joseph's) family in Goshen (Genesis 46:28-47:26). I thought some background to that period would bring to life the events recorded there. But no time frame is provided by which to clearly relate the stories of Genesis to political texts or archaeological testimonies of the ancient world.

Writing was an intrinsic part of ancient Egyptian society. Egyptians used many of the raw resources at their disposal to not only carve symbols, and eventually, texts into clay tablets and rock surfaces, but to also manufacture paper, create ink and other pigments, and store their documents and records. Clay, Wood and Stone Surfaces As with many other developing forms of written communication in early world civilizations, ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics were impressed on clay tablets for record keeping. The earliest forms of Egyptian writing are dated to 3000 B. C. Wood was also used as a writing surface, such as for carving symbols into coffins. Egyptians inscribed texts upon their building surfaces, including the limestone, sandstone or granite of their temples and tombs. Papyrus Paper The process of creating writing surfaces from the raw materials of the papyrus plant was a significant development. Papyrus scrolls served many functions for accounting, record keeping, funerary texts and art. Papyrus was in use throughout the time of the pharoahs, with the earliest known example recovered from the First Dynasty tomb of Hemaka, an Egyptian official. Ink and Pigments Ancient Egyptians typically used charcoal or soot to form black lettering on papyrus."

What defines an empire and what does the building of empire suggest? The regions of Mesopotamia, Egypt (the Nile Valley), and the Indus Valley are three rich areas for studying how people and ideas come together to create civilizations and empires. Imagine three spaces that are sparsely populated, yet well watered and fertile, in a time before written history. Two are river valleys, another lies between two rivers forming a rich plain. Imagine that humans settle in these regions and domesticate plants and animals. The domestication made possible by these riverine territories and the success of that domestication—farming and grazing—lure increasingly greater human and animal migration to these spaces. As these populations increase, so do their needs. These needs give rise to the social and political economic formations that characterize the ancient urban spaces and states of Mesopotamia and the Indus and Nile valleys. Mesopotamian, Egyptian, and Indus Valley civilizations are noted for their dense populations, urbanization processes, and cultural innovation."

"text": "The big questions of ancient Egypt From pyramids to mummies and Cleopatra to Tutankhamun, Egyptologist Joann Fletcher reveals some of the discoveries and controversies surrounding the ancient civilisation... November 11, 2015 at 11:07 am This article was first published in the November 2015 issue of BBC History Magazine1What is the earliest evidence of ‘art’ in Egypt? The oldest graphic activity ever recorded in Egypt – indeed, in the whole of north Africa – was carved into the sandstone cliffs of Qurta around 25 miles south of Edfu, between Luxor and Aswan. Recently scientifically dated at 19,000 years old by Dr Dirk Huyge, director of the Belgian Mission who has studied the site since 2005, the gallery comprises at least 185 individual images, almost three-quarters of which depict the now-extinct, powerfully built wild cattle known as aurochs, the ancestors of domestic cows. Some of these huge creatures – almost 2 metres long – have ‘cut’ marks scratched around the head and neck area. Huyge believes that these ‘cuts’ have some kind of symbolical meaning, possibly as an attempt to ensure a successful outcome for hunting expeditions. The Qurta scenes also feature hippos, gazelle, birds, fish and strange hybrid beings, along with several stylised female figures representing the earliest Egyptian attempts at self-portraits. Huyge has dubbed the rich repertoire of scenes a veritable “Lascaux along the Nile”, observing that these lifelike and vivid images are “uncannily close” in style to European cave art such as that seen at Lascaux in France, which also features aurochs and other large animals. He adds that “perhaps direct influence or cultural exchange over such a long distance is not as improbable as it seems… The Mediterranean Sea at the time of the last Ice Age was at least 100 metres lower than it is now: could it be that Palaeolithic people established an intercontinental exchange of iconographic and symbolic concepts?”2Who was the real Tutankhamun? Though undeniably Egypt’s most famous pharaoh, little is known about Tutankhamun. When born, probably around 1346 BC at the city of Amarna, some 180 miles south of modern Cairo, he was named Tutankhaten – ‘Living Image of [sun god] Aten’."

Out of this genocidal experience, race has become a dominant category for uniting and dividing people in modernity. Within the race debate, ancient Egypt has become a terrain contested by three mutually exclusive views:modern Egyptian: the ancient Egyptians are the same group of people as the modern Egyptians Afrocentric: the ancient Egyptians were black Africans, displaced by later movements of peoples, for example the Macedonian, Roman and Arab conquests Eurocentric: the ancient Egyptians are ancestral to modern Europe Sources1. Human remains: The direct evidence for debating the question is the ancient population as it survives in human remains. There are two dominant problems:published physical anthropological study of groups remains astonishingly rare, with most attention going to studies of a single individualobjectivity remains elusive within the race debate, and is perhaps impossible The contributions by Keita are outstanding exceptions to the general lack of both demographic study and objectivity ( Keita 1990; Keita 1992 ). DNA research is expected to transform this debate, though self-critical consciousness is not always displayed by proponents.2. Material culture: Archaeology also provides evidence for supraregional groupings of peoples, by revealing which areas shared, and which areas differed in, material culture: however, modernity abounds in examples of shared material culture exported across cultural divides (for example, cans of North American soft drinks in the Arab world).3. Language groups: Another broad category of evidence is language: here again, though, the modern world illustrates the use of the same language across different groupings. A social constructivist might conclude that ethnicity is, like everything else in human societies, a socially agreed category combining geographical and historical origins. An Afrocentric historian might reply that such an attitude amounts to a European strategy to defuse the issue of race, now that it undermines as much as reinforces European and North American domination."

Basic methods for mummification were in practice before the reign of the first pharaoh, and developed in sophistication through the course of the New Kingdom era. Practices Leading to Pharaonic Mummification Mummification developed before the pharaohs. Prehistoric Egyptians buried their dead directly into the desert, relying on the sand and hot climate to perform a natural sort of mummification. In the latter parts of the Predynastic Period, before the time of the pharaohs, the Egyptians augmented their burial practices by including coffins and mastabas -- aboveground tombs for the wealthy made from mud brick -- to their burial preparations. The incorporation of these advancements led to more rapid decay of the entombed, which spurred the ancient Egyptians to develop better mummification techniques. Initial Methods Mummification methods developed over several dynasties. Pharaoh mummification took place during the Early Dynastic and Old Kingdom eras."

After three years of observation, he discovered that it was the women who were examined by doctors immediately after performing the autopsies, who died. He therefore ruled that all doctors participating in autopsies must thoroughly wash their hands before examining any patients in his ward. The death rate in his ward immediately plummeted. However, the prejudiced doctors did not like his “new” ideas. His contract was not renewed, his rule overturned and the mortality rate soared once again.

Pilcher Abstract: This paper, originally written for my South African History class at UCSD, argues that the ancient Egyptian people and their civilization were of primarily African heritage on both a cultural and biological (or “racial” level). Data from biological anthropology, archaeology, and cultural anthropology are cited to show the Egyptians' African physical appearance, geographic origins, and cultural links with other areas of the continent. It is concluded that correcting past ignorance and denial of these ties is of interest both to historical reconstructions and rebutting racist perceptions of innate African incapability of civilization. In his autobiography The Long Walk to Freedom (1994), the former South African President Nelson Mandela recounts that he had fantasized about visiting the ruins of ancient Egypt, which he calls “the cradle of African civilization”. To quote Mandela’s statement on why this was so significant to him: This was not amateur archaeological interest; it is important for African nationalists to be armed with evidence to dispute the fictitious claims of whites that Africans are without a civilized past that compares with that of the West. In a single morning, I discovered that Egyptians were created great works of art and architecture when whites were still living in caves. As much as ancient Egypt may have helped fuel the fire of Mandela’s passion to liberate Black South Africans from the oppression of apartheid, few non-Black people even recognize that it was an African civilization to begin with. At our own University of California in San Diego, ancient Egyptian history is taught under the Near Eastern rather than African division of the history department, as is the case in colleges across the country. In movies like The Mummy and The Ten Commandments, White rather than Black actors are cast into the Egyptian characters’ roles. The implicit notion being promoted by our popular culture, and even many academics that ought to know better, is that Egypt of the Pharaohs was of Middle Eastern or Mediterranean rather than African origin."

Thracians were allied to Troy during the Trojan War, although Homeric Thrace was vaguely defined. In this period it encompassed a wide swathe of territory to the north of Greece 'proper', stretching from the River Axios in the west, to the Hellespont and the Black Sea in the east, and the Balkan Mountains in the north. Sometimes Thrace could be used to define literally all the territory to the north of Thessaly, incorporating Scythia and even Macedonia. In addition to the tribe that Homer called Thracians (in reality several tribes, all very warlike), ancient Thrace was home to numerous other Indo-European tribes, all non-Greek speakers, such as the Bisaltes, Bistones, Cicones, Edones, and Triballi, and all of them managed to remain rural peoples, usually living in fortified hilltops. These Thracians may also have shared many Indo-European cultural similarities with related groups at the other end of the Black Sea, especially the Cimmerians. By around 900 BC these two groups appear to use the same style of horse bits and cheek pieces, if not more, with an umbrella 'Thraco-Cimmerian' label being applied to them by archaeologists. Like the Cimmerians and Scythians, the Thracians were renowned for their horses and their skill as mounted warriors. Indications are that the Cimmerians became associated with the Thracians around a large swathe of the western coast of the Black Sea, and eventually merged with them (following their final defeat and break-up). Carl Ferdinand Friedrich Lehmann-Haupt stated that the language of the Cimmerians could have been a 'missing link' between Thracian and Iranian."

These regions are described in the works of ancient historians and geographers, and in the legends and myths of the ancient Greeks. Conceptually, there is no clear theme to the structure of these regions. Some, particularly in the Peloponnese, can be seen primarily as distinct geo-physical units, defined by physical boundaries such as mountain ranges and rivers. These regions retained their identity, even when the identity of the people living there changed during the Greek Dark Ages (or at least, was conceived by the Greeks to have changed). Conversely, the division of central Greece between Boeotia, Phocis, Doris and the three parts of Locris, cannot be understood as a logical division by physical boundaries, and instead seems to follow ancient tribal divisions. Nevertheless, these regions also survived the upheaval of the Greek Dark Ages, showing that they had acquired less political connotations. Outside the Peloponnese and central Greece, geographical divisions and identities did change over time suggesting a closer connection with tribal identity."

These cities had supported the cities of Ionia during their revolt against Persian rule, thus incurring the wrath of Darius. Darius also saw the opportunity to extend his empire into Europe, and to secure its western frontier.

The History of the Peloponnesian War ( Greek: Ἱστορίαι, \"\"Histories\"\") is a historical account of the Peloponnesian War (431–404 BC), which was fought between the Peloponnesian League (led by Sparta) and the Delian League (led by Athens ). It was written by Thucydides, an Athenian historian who also happened to serve as an Athenian general during the war. His account of the conflict is widely considered to be a classic and regarded as one of the earliest scholarly works of history. The History is divided into eight books. Analyses of the History generally occur in one of two camps. [ 1] On the one hand, some scholars view the work as an objective and scientific piece of history. The judgment of J. B. Bury reflects his traditional interpretation of the work: \"\" [The History is] severe in its detachment, written from a purely intellectual point of view, unencumbered with platitudes and moral judgments, cold and critical.\"\" [ 2]On the other hand, in keeping with more recent interpretations that are associated with reader-response criticism, the History can be read as a piece of literature rather than an objective record of the historical events. This view is embodied in the words of W. R. Connor, who describes Thucydides as \"\"an artist who responds to, selects and skillfully arranges his material, and develops its symbolic and emotional potential.\"\" ["

Since the days of the Roman Empire, the word prefect has spread to generally refer to a leader of an administrative area. In Ancient Rome, the prefect was appointed and had no imperium, or authority themselves. Instead, they were advised by the delegation of higher authorities, which is where the power truly sat. However, prefects did have some authority and could be in charge of a prefecture. This included controlling prisons and other civil administrations. There was a prefect at the head of the praetorian guard. In addition, there were several other military and civil prefects, including the Praefectus vigilum in charge of the city's police-like vigiles, and Praefectus classis, in charge of the fleet.

The Minoan civilization was the first civilization in Europe and the first, in Europe, to build a palace.

The stone tools found in the Plakias region of Crete include hand axes of the Acheulean type made of quartz . It is believed that pre-Homo sapiens hominids from Africa crossed to Crete on rafts. [ 3] [4]In the neolithic period, some of the early influences upon the development of Cretan culture arise from the Cyclades and from Egypt; cultural records are written in the undeciphered script known as \"\" Linear A \"\".

"text": "\"History of Minoan Crete Geography and Economy of Crete The island of Crete is located in the center of the eastern Mediterranean at the crossroads of Africa, Asia, and Europe. It measures about 200 Km from east to west, and between 12 to 58 Km from north to south at its narrowest and widest distances, making it one of the largest islands in the Mediterranean sea. Crete's largest modern town is Heraklion (35° 20' latitude, 25° 08' longitude) and its landscape oscillates between tall, rugged mountains, gentle slopes, and plateaus, which are framed by the Aegean coast line to the North, and the Lybian Sea to the south. The temperate climate of Crete with its short, mild winters and its dry, warm summers, along with the fertility of the Cretan plains produces sufficient food supplies to support an affluent local population, and for exports. The inhabitants of ancient Crete --whom we call Minoans-- produced a decentralized culture based on the abundance of the land's natural resources, and on intense commercial activity. While the island appears today completely deforested, in ancient times timber was one of the natural resources that was commercially exploited and exported to nearby Egypt, Syria, Cyprus, the Aegean Islands and the Greek mainland. Besides timber Crete exported food, cypress wood, wine, currants, olive oil, wool, cloth, herbs, and purple dye. Its imports consisted of precious stones, copper (most likely from Cyprus), ivory, silver, gold, and other raw material. They also imported tin that was used in the production of bronze alloys. Interestingly, the nearest known tin mines appear as far as Spain, Britain, central Europe, and Iran."

"text": "7 March, 2013 - 17:19 johnblack The Minoan Civilization (Read the article on one page)In Crete, Greece, there existed one of the oldest and most powerful civilizations on earth: the Minoan civilization. They received the name from the legendary King Minos, though some suggest that Minos was not his name but his title, like ‘Governor’ in the ancient Cretan language. The Minoan civilization lived about 5000 years ago and was the first large civilization of Europe. Minoans were enigmatic people that advanced commerce and arts, and at the same time were great warriors and sailors. The Minoans were also the first European civilization to use a written language, which was deciphered just a few years ago. According to Homer, the kingdom had 90 cities, the main city being Knossos, and was governed for 9 years by King Minos, in close relationship with his father, the god Zeus. The legend of Talo—the giant metallic, robot-like being gifted to Minos by Zeus—took place during the period of the Minoan civilization. Daedalus also flourished in Crete at this time, building great structures for Minos, including the famous labyrinth where the Minotaur was held captive. Theseus, another demigod and son of the god Poseidon, finally killed the Minotaur with the help of Minos’ daughter, Ariadne. The labyrinth was once considered a myth until Sir Arthur Evans discovered the city of Knossos in Crete, taking the myth out of the sphere of legends and putting it back into the timeline of history."

Location of Crete, Greece and the Aegean Sea The Minoan civilization thrived on the island of Crete, and the smaller islands in the vicinity of Crete, like the island of Thera to the north. The English archaeologist, Sir Arthur Evans, named the civilization after the legendary Cretan king, Minos, who was said to have kept a monster, called the Minotaur, in a complicated maze, called the Labyrinth, under his palace at Knossos. The Minoans are not Greek, but they are part of the Greek history. By trading with the early Greeks, the Minoans spread their ideas and art to the Greek mainland. Crete is located in the Mediterranean Sea, with the Aegean Sea on its northern shore. Crete is sometimes called the, \"\"stepping stone to the continents,\"\" since it is located within reach of Europe, Asia, and Africa by boat. Indeed, we have evidence that the Minoans traded with ancient people on all three continents. The Minoans had a surplus of olive oil, which they traded for Egyptian gold, copper from the nearby island of Cyprus, and tin from Turkey and Afghanistan. The Minoans were not only farmers of olives, but fine craftsmen, making pieces of jewelry, pottery, seals and figurines."

The Minoans established a great trading empire centered on Crete, which is conveniently located midway between Egypt, Greece, Anatolia, and the Middle East. We know surprisingly little about this Minoan civilization, which flourished for nearly two thousand years. Indeed, we do not even know what these people called themselves. The term Minoan is a modern name, and comes from the legendary King Minos, who, according to Greek mythology, ruled the island of Crete. One of the main problems in understanding Minoan civilization is that, though we have Minoan writing, no one has deciphered it, so we do not know what it says. We can make up a bit for our lack of knowledge from texts with information gleaned from archaeology. Discovery of the Minoans [ edit]The ancient Greeks had a number of legends about ancient Crete. The most famous tells of the Cretean king named Minos, who kept a Minotaur (part man and part bull) in a maze on the island, and sacrificed young Greeks to feed it. There are various legends about King Minos, and the ancient Greeks decided that all of them could not refer to the same man, so they assumed that there were many kings named Minos who had ruled Crete."

"text": "\"ANCIENT CIVILIZATIONSthe requirements and patterns to development Edited By: Robert Guisepi The Ancient City of Jericho The term civilization basically means the level of development at which people live together peacefully in communities. Ancient civilization refers specifically to the first settled and stable communities that became the basis for later states, nations, and empires. The study of ancient civilization is concerned with the earliest segments of the much broader subject called ancient history. The span of ancient history began with the invention of writing in about 3100 BC and lasted for more than 35 centuries. Mankind existed long before the written word, but writing made the keeping of a historical record possible. The first ancient societies arose in Mesopotamia and Egypt in the Middle East, in the Indus Valley region of modern Pakistan, in the Huang He (Yellow River) valley of China, on the island of Crete in the Aegean Sea, and in Central America. All of these civilizations had certain features in common. They built cities, invented forms of writing, learned to make pottery and use metals, domesticated animals, and created fairly complex social structures with class systems. Apart from written records and carved inscriptions, the knowledge about ancient peoples is derived from the work of archaeologists. Most of the significant archaeological findings have been made in the past 200 years."

"text": "The Palace at Knossos Peaceful Trade Ventures The archaeological site at Knossos was heavily influenced by surrounding societies, the most intriguing being northern Africa and the Near East. Although farther away than the rest of the Aegean, the locations of these societies on the Mediterranean Sea did not detract from trade at all. They were in fact major contributors to the steady flow of trade with Crete, the Mediterranean Sea itself as a pathway to exchange. The widespread influences are also supported by some very unique artifacts that link Knossos to other places around the world and gave rise to its status as a center of wealth. Knossos became wealthy without the use of warfare; many of the frescoes found on the walls of the palace illustrate scenes of tranquility and the warrior style tombs that were found date to after the Minoan civilization was conquered by Mycenae (de Blois, 1997). Also there are no defensive walls to protect the citizens determining the lack of warfare (Martin, 2000). Instead the area became wealthy through its trade, exchanging goods across the Mediterranean and dispersing ideas throughout. Knossos influenced and was influenced by outlying cultures and at the height of its time it became a peaceful economic hub for Mediterranean trade. The Location of Knossos Mediterranean Sea Knossos is located on the northern coast of Crete, in fertile lowlands near present-day Iraklion. Knossos is approximately five kilometers inland in the Kairatos river valley, and is hidden from the sea by low hills (Roberts, 1979)."

"text": "Archives | 1989Minoan Culture Survived Ancient Volcano, Evidence Shows By JOHN NOBLE WILFORDView page in Times Machine, Page 00001 The New York Times Archives A LONGSTANDING theory of archeology, linking a devastating volcanic eruption to the sudden collapse of the Minoan civilization at its peak of splendor, has apparently been demolished by new excavations on a tiny island off the north coast of Crete. Digging on the island of Mochlos last summer, two archeologists discovered what they called the first direct and conclusive evidence that the volcanic eruption 70 miles away on Thera, the present-day island of Santorini, did not destroy the Minoan civilization of ancient Crete, as had been widely assumed. They uncovered architectural and ceramic remains indicating instead that the civilization continued to flourish for some 150 years after the eruption in about 1600 B. C. The archeologists found in the ruins of a Minoan settlement a layer of volcanic ash from the time of the Theran eruption. The ash covered a pavement of stone slabs and distinctive pottery from the late Minoan period. Above the ash, more significantly, a house had been substantially rebuilt in the Minoan style and contained remnants of Minoan pottery. Describing the discovery recently at the International Theran Congress in Greece, Dr. Jeffrey S. Soles, associate professor of classical studies at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, and Dr. Costis Davaras, director of the Archeological Institute of Crete, said the excavations demonstrated for the first time that ash from the eruption had reached Crete. They said this also confirmed that the eruption had occurred about 150 years earlier than once believed, hence well before the Minoan collapse. '' It is now quite clear that the volcanic eruption had nothing to do with the destruction of Minoan Crete,'' Dr. Soles said in an interview. Dr. Peter Warren, an expert in Minoan studies at the University of Bristol in England, said the new evidence had made a convert of him and many other archeologists. Dr. Philip P. Betancourt, an archeologist and professor of art history at Temple University, said, ''This is the last piece in a complicated jigsaw puzzle that seems to conclusively demonstrate that the eruption of Thera was significantly earlier than the destruction of Crete.''"

These figures have been stolen from burials to satisfy the Cycladic antiquities market since the early 20th century. Only about 40% of the 1,400 figurines found are of known origin, since looters destroyed evidence of the rest. A distinctive Neolithic culture amalgamating Anatolian and mainland Greek elements arose in the western Aegean before 4000 BC, based on emmer wheat and wild-type barley, sheep and goats, pigs, and tuna that were apparently speared from small boats (Rutter). Excavated sites include Saliagos and Kephala (on Keos ), which showed signs of copper-working. Each of the small Cycladic islands could support no more than a few thousand people, though Late Cycladic boat models show that fifty oarsmen could be assembled from the scattered communities (Rutter). When the highly organized palace-culture of Crete arose, the islands faded into insignificance, with the exception of Delos, which retained its archaic reputation as a sanctuary through the period of Classical Greek civilization (see Delian League )."

C. Greek civilization was unique in so many ways that a student of historymight infer that it developed free from outside influences, springing fullblown from the mountains and plains of this small land. The Greek achievement, however, was preceded by an advanced civilization located on the lands surrounding the Aegean Sea. This Aegean civilization, which came into full flower about 2000 B. C. and collapsed suddenly following 1200 B. C., developed through two major periods. Minoan And Mycenaean Phases The first and longer phase of Aegean civilization, which ended about 1450 B. C., is called Minoan after the legendary Cretan King Minos. Crete was the center of Minoan civilization, which spread to the Aegean Islands, the coast of Asia Minor, and mainland Greece. The last period of Aegean civilization, the two and one-half centuries following 1450 B. C. when the center of Aegean political power and culture lay on the Greek mainland, is called Mycenaean after its most important site at Mycenae. The Minoans The narrow, 160-mile-long island of Crete was a stepping stone between Europe, Asia, and Africa. Stimulated by immigrants from Asia Minor and by contacts with Mesopotamia and Egypt, a brilliant civilization emerged here by 2000 B. C. Minoan prosperity was based on large-scale trade that ranged from Sicily, Greece, and Asia Minor to Syria and Egypt. The Minoans employed the first ships capable of long voyages over the open sea. Chief exports were olive oil, wine, metalware, and magnificent pottery."

The research represents a final blow for supporters of a multiple origins of humans theory, according to the researchers. Share: FULL STORYNew research published in the journal Nature (19 July) has proved the single origin of humans theory by combining studies of global genetic variations in humans with skull measurements across the world. The research, at the University of Cambridge and funded by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC), represents a final blow for supporters of a multiple origins of humans theory. Competing theories on the origins of anatomically modern humans claim that either humans originated from a single point in Africa and migrated across the world, or different populations independently evolved from homo erectus to home sapiens in different areas. The Cambridge researchers studied genetic diversity of human populations around the world and measurements of over 6,000 skulls from across the globe in academic collections. Their research knocks down one of the last arguments in favour of multiple origins. The new findings show that a loss in genetic diversity the further a population is from Africa is mirrored by a loss in variation in physical attributes. Lead researcher, Dr Andrea Manica from the University's Department of Zoology, explained: \"\"The origin of anatomically modern humans has been the focus of much heated debate. Our genetic research shows the further modern humans have migrated from Africa the more genetic diversity has been lost within a population. \"\""

It is common for Japanese people to think that Japan is not part of Asia since it is an island, cut off from the continent. This tells a lot about how they see themselves in relation to their neighbours. But in spite of what the Japanese may think of themselves, they do not have extraterrestrial origins, and are indeed related to several peoples in Asia.

Hansen, discoverer of M. leprae in 1873The history of leprosy was traced by geneticists in 2005 through its origins and worldwide distribution using comparative genomics. They determined that leprosy originated in East Africa or the Near East and traveled with humans along their migration routes, including those of trade in goods and slaves. The four strains of M. leprae are based in specific geographic regions. Strain 1 occurs predominantly in East Africa, Asia, and the Pacific region; strain 2 in Ethiopia, Malawai, Nepal/north India, and New Caledonia; strain 3 in Europe, North Africa, and the Americas; and strain 4 in West Africa and the Caribbean. They created a map of the dissemination of leprosy in the world. This confirmed the spread of the disease along the migration, colonisation, and slave trade routes taken from East Africa to India, West Africa to the New World, and from Africa into Europe and vice versa. [ 1]In 1873 G. H. Armauer Hansen in Norway discovered the causative agent of leprosy, Mycobacterium leprae. This was the first bacterium to be identified as causing disease in humans.

"text": "Beringia, also called Bering Land Bridge, any in a series of landforms that once existed periodically and in various configurations between northeastern Asia and northwestern North America and that were associated with periods of worldwide glaciation and subsequent lowering of sea levels. Such dryland regions began appearing between the two continents about 70 million years ago, but the term Beringia more commonly refers to the often large areas that intermittently linked present-day northwestern Canada and northern and western Alaska, U. S., with northeastern Siberia, Russia, during the Pleistocene Epoch (about 2,600,000 to about 11,700 years ago). It is particularly associated with the most recent of these regions, which began to appear about 38,000 years ago and remained in place roughly until the end of the Pleistocene, at which time the present-day Bering Strait between Alaska and Siberia (linking what are now the Arctic Ocean and the Bering Sea) opened and severed the intercontinental land connection. Fossil evidence strongly supports the belief that, over time, the various “land bridges” allowed plants and animals to move between the Old and New worlds; the most recent Beringia is also considered to be at least one of the ways (if not the principal route) by which humans migrated into and populated the Americas. Caribou migrating along the coastal plain of the Beaufort Sea, near the eastern limit of the ancient Beringia land bridge, Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, northeastern Alaska, U. S. U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service Generally, Beringia is now thought to have been at its greatest extent roughly 20,000 years ago, during the latter part of the Wisconsin Glacial Stage (the last glacial maximum of the Pleistocene). Because so much of Earth’s water was then frozen in glaciers, sea levels worldwide were lowered by as much as some 400 feet (120 metres), exposing large areas of former seafloor. In the Arctic and subarctic regions, at that time, Beringia is estimated to have occupied a vast region of dry land extending northward into territory now inundated by the southern Arctic Ocean and stretching eastward from perhaps as far west as the present-day Lena River delta in Siberia to the Mackenzie River delta in Canada’s Yukon territory. It continued southward for some 1,000 miles (1,600 km) through the then-dry seafloor of the Bering Strait and occupied roughly the northern half of the Bering Sea. Over the next several thousand years, as the glaciers melted and sea levels began to rise, Beringia gradually shrank in size until, eventually, the land connection was completely lost. Although glaciation throughout much of the Northern Hemisphere was extensive during the late Wisconsin period, with ice reaching thicknesses of as much as 2.5 miles (4 km) in places, research has shown that much of Beringia had a dry climate and thus was not glaciated."

Note: The Lapita culture is known for its distinctive and colorful earthenware pottery, which can be traced through Melanesia to Sāmoa, Fiji, and Tonga, where many characteristics of typical Polynesian culture evolve during the first millennium. By the time the Hawaiian Islands are settled, however, the use of pottery disappears and is replaced instead by stone adzes and other crafts.

Modern humans first arose between 100,000 and 200,000 years ago in Africa. But when and how the modern human lineage then dispersed out of Africa has long been controversial. Scientists have suggested the exodus from Africa started between 40,000 and 70,000 years ago. However, stone artifacts dating to at least 100,000 years ago that were recently uncovered in the Arabian Desert suggested that modern humans might have begun their march across the globe earlier than once suspected. Out of Africa models To help solve this mystery, Katerina Harvati, a paleoanthropologist at the University of Tübingen in Germany, and her colleagues tested four competing out-of-Africa models. Two models involved a single dispersal — one involved a route northward, up the Nile River valley and then eastward across the northern end of the Arabian Peninsula into Asia; the other involved a \"\"beachcomber\"\" route along the southern coast of the Arabian Peninsula into Asia. Two other models involved multiple dispersals, with both models involving routes along the northern and southern ends of the Arabian Peninsula — one involved connections and gene flow between these routes, and the other did not. [ See Photos of Our Closest Human Ancestor]The investigators used these models to predict how much the genes and skull measurements of different groups in Africa, Asia and Australia might have diverged from one another given how separated they were by space and time."

The sandy cliff top above was covered with a white-flowering shrub that one distant day would be known as blombos and give this place the name Blombos Cave.

These great migrations eventually led the descendants of a small group of Africans to occupy even the farthest reaches of the Earth. Our species is an African one: Africa is where we first evolved, and where we have spent the majority of our time on Earth.

By Brian Clark Howard, National Geographic PUBLISHED April 24, 2014Deer are among the most ubiquitous animals in North America, giving humans ample chances to observe their habits. But until recently, scientists had missed one remarkable behavior of a hardy group of mule deer: a twice-yearly migration of 150 miles (240 kilometers), longer than any other land animal in the lower 48 states.

Our 18 Most Popular Instagram Photos of 2017In this great migration, several hundred deer travel across Wyoming, from a low desert to high mountains and back again. Their trek takes place outside the protection of any parks or preserves, and until now was done under the noses of the public. However, scientists warn that development and human intervention could threaten this ancient journey. Every winter, hundreds of mule deer can be found browsing on sagebrush in the Red Desert in southwestern Wyoming, says Hall Sawyer, a research biologist based in Laramie. But contrary to what scientists previously believed, those deer don't stay in the Red Desert all year, Sawyer and colleagues announced at a news conference April 22. \"\" People saw deer there in the winter and deer there in the fall, and nobody had any knowledge to believe otherwise,\"\" says Sawyer, who works for environmental consulting firm Western Ecosystems Technology."

"text": "\"The History of Germanyby Stephen Flurry\"\"The Philadelphia Trumpet\"\", March 1997How could a people, numbering more than one hundred million worldwide - a people who have contributed so much to the civilization of man - be ignored by the Bible? The Bible does have much to say about the history and prophecy of this significant nation. Let's understand!The history of Germany is not the history of a nation, but of a race... Thus, even before the fall of the Roman Empire, it becomes the main trunk out of which branch histories of nearly all European nations, and... the connecting link between ancient and modern history. The records of no other race throw so much light upon the development of all civilized lands during a period of fifteen hundred years.\"\" So said Bayard Taylor in his book, History of Germany (p.3). Certainly, German contributions to civilization as we know it, have been massive. Great German philosophers, musicians, poets, inventors, historians - far too many to mention - have literally shaped this world's way of thinking over the centuries. Could the German Reich, the oldest political institution in Europe, which ruled the continent as the Holy Roman Empire for a thousand years, and which almost gained control of the WHOLE WORLD in two wars this century - could a people with a role in human affairs that large, be completely ignored in the Bible? That's what scholars would have you believe. The Bible does not mention the word \"\"Germany\"\" - and for good reason - they did not acquire that name until the Romans collectively labeled them Germani almost 2000 years ago."

Seas in the region would still have been at relatively low, Ice Age levels, making for shorter crossings. On top of that, though, warmer, wetter weather would have created navigable lakes and rivers in what are now the deserts of the Arabian Peninsula, the study says. Such a shift would have offered early modern humans—which arose in Africa about 200,000 years ago—a new route through the formerly parched northern deserts into the Middle East. ( See an atlas of human migration. ) The new paper was spurred by the discovery of several 120,000-year-old tools at a desert archaeological site in the United Arab Emirates. The presence of the tools—whose design is uniquely African, experts say—so early in the region suggests early humans marched out of Africa into the Arabian Peninsula directly from the Horn of Africa, roughly present-day Somalia (map)."

Most of it lies in the tropics and, although we often think of Africa in terms of its rain forests, less than ten percent of the continent is covered by tropical forests, and those are mostly in West Africa. Much of the African surface is covered by savannas, or open grasslands, and by arid plains and deserts. In geological terms, the continent is really formed by a series of high plateaus broken in the east by the Great Rift valley and the mountains that surround it. Large rivers - the Congo, the Nile, the Zambezi, and the Niger - begin in the interior of the continent and flow to the sea over great falls and cataracts that mark the passage from the plateau to the coast. These falls have historically made movement from the coast to the interior difficult, but the great river systems have also provided the interior of Africa with routes of communication. We have already noted the origins of humankind in East Africa where some of the earliest fossil remains of protohominids have been found. Even before the appearance about 300,000 years ago of Homo sapiens, the ancestors of modern human beings, other hominid species, such as Homo erectus, had moved outward from Africa to Asia and Europe. Africa, therefore, holds a special place in the development of the human species. It was the scene of human origins."

"text": "\"Trans-Saharan Migration to North Africa and the EU: Historical Roots and Current Trends November 1, 2006 Feature By Hein de Haas Version française Southern Europe is all-too familiar with irregular migration from North African countries such as Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia. Since the early 1990s, thousands of North Africans have attempted to cross the Mediterranean to reach Spain and Italy. But, as the migration crises in Morocco's Spanish enclaves in 2005 and Spain's Canary Islands in 2006 made clear, sub-Saharan Africans are increasingly migrating to North African countries, with some using the region as a point of transit to Europe and some remaining in North Africa. These migrants come from an increasingly diverse array of countries and regions, such as Senegal, the Gambia, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Mali, Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana, and Nigeria as well as the Democratic Republic of Congo, Cameroon, Sudan, the Horn of Africa, and even Asia. According to different estimates, between 65,000 and 120,000 sub-Saharan Africans enter the Maghreb (Mauritania, Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria, and Libya) yearly, of which 70 to 80 percent are believed to migrate through Libya and 20 to 30 percent through Algeria and Morocco. Several tens of thousands (not hundreds of thousands, as media coverage might suggest) of sub-Saharan Africans try to cross the Mediterranean each year. Although commonly portrayed as \"\"destitute\"\" or \"\"desperate,\"\" migrants are often relatively well educated and from moderate socio-economic backgrounds. They move because of a general lack of opportunities, fear of persecution and violence, or a combination of both. Although the media focus on \"\"boat migrants,\"\" many employ other methods — using tourist visas and false documents, hiding in vehicles on ferries, and scaling or swimming around the fences surrounding the Spanish enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla in Morocco. Those considering North Africa as their primary destination or those who fail to enter Europe join growing immigrant communities."

Written by Marawolf of The Covenstead Sadly, when people first hear the words Pagan or Paganism they tend to think, \"\"devil worshiper\"\", or they picture some wild, orgiastic, way-out individual with no regard for what is sacred or for \"\"God\"\"; a cult member who sacrifices babies. This kind of thinking couldn't be farther away from the truth of who Pagans are and what Paganism really is!So what exactly is Paganism, you ask? It's simply an umbrella term covering many different religions and belief systems. Paganism is a spiritual way of life and its origins are rooted in the ancient nature religions of the world. Paganism has absolutely nothing to do with Satan, demons, or devils. Paganism, sometimes referred to as The Old Religion, pre-dates Christianity. Pagans do not believe in the entity Satan, a Christian concept. Many standard dictionaries define the word \"\"pagan\"\" as being a person who is not a Christian, Jew, or Muslim. This is far too broad a definition and many peoples who fall outside of these mainstream religions may not consider themselves to be Pagan, moreover, this definition conveys practically nothing about Paganism itself."

It promotes oneness with all that exists as well as with the divine. Those who practice Wicca have a deep appreciation of anything natural, whether it is a sunset, the dew on the grass in the early morning or the colorful leaves in the autumn air. History of Wicca There is some dispute regarding the history of Wicca with many scholars believing that Wicca’s history is relatively short in relation to other religions. Scholars of religion have identified three people as founders of Wiccan beliefs. Charles Leland was an author and folklorist who, in 1899, wrote Arcadia: Gospel of the Witches, which dealt with the goddess Diana, claiming to get the information from an Italian sorceress, Maddalena. Margaret Murray wrote about witches who were burned by various religions, claiming that those burned were remnants of an ancient, organized pre-Christian religion in Europe. Gerald Gardner was a British civil servant who joined a coven in 1939 and later wrote about the practices calling them “old religion.” He also wrote Witchcraft Today and The Meaning of Witchcraft."

"text": "Freemasonry’s “Lost Secret” Found—Encoded In Gothic Cathedral Architecture By Richard Cassaro May 19, 2011 Category: Featured Articles Though Christian buildings by purpose, Europe’s Gothic cathedrals contain an ancient Pagan wisdom hidden in their architecture. This wisdom, which predates Christianity, was placed by the operative Freemasons, builders commissioned by the Church to create cathedrals, churches, and other edifices. For centuries the Masonic heresy went unrecognized, but the Church eventually outlawed the Freemasons and called for their immediate destruction once the heresy was discovered. Their structures live on, however, and in this article we’ll see how Freemasonry’s “lost secret” can be found encoded in the stone architecture of Gothic cathedrals. Above: The Burgos Cathedral is a Gothic-style cathedral in Burgos, Spain. Begun in 1221, it is famous for its vast size and unique architecture. Do ancient secrets lay hidden here? Rumors have for centuries swirled that the Freemasons are in possession of a “great secret. ”“It is always understood that the Freemasons have a secret which they carefully conceal…” —Thomas Paine, The Origins of Freemasonry, 1818This secret is said to be an ancient Pagan wisdom-teaching, a highly advanced and life-changing “Sacred Science” they inherited from Antiquity. In Tolstoy’s War & Peace, a Freemason says:“ The first and chief object of our Order, the foundation on which it rests…is the preservation and handing on to posterity of a certain important mystery… which has come down to us from the remotest ages, even from the first man – a mystery on which perhaps the fate of mankind depends."

Among Western occultists, the terms \"\"LHP\"\" and \"\"RHP\"\" have historically meant essentially the same thing, substituting the Western occult subculture's own orthodoxies in place of orthodox Hinduism.

For other uses, see Triple deity. The Triple Goddess has been adopted by many neopagans as one of their primary deities. In common Neopagan usage the three female figures are frequently described as the Maiden, the Mother, and the Crone, each of which symbolizes both a separate stage in the female life cycle and a phase of the Moon, and often rules one of the realms of earth, underworld, and the heavens. These may or may not be perceived as aspects of a greater single divinity. The Goddess of Wicca 's duotheistic theology is sometimes portrayed as the Triple Goddess, her masculine consort being the Horned God. The term triple goddess can be used outside of Neopaganism to instead refer to historical goddess triads and single goddesses of three forms or aspects. The Triple Goddess was the subject of much of the writing of the prominent early and middle 20th-century poet, novelist and mythographer Robert Graves, in his books The White Goddess and The Greek Myths as well as in his poetry and novels. Modern neo-pagan conceptions of the Triple Goddess have been heavily influenced by Robert Graves who regarded the Triple Goddess as the continuing muse of all true poetry and who speculatively reconstructed her ancient worship, drawing on the scholarship of his time, in particular Jane Ellen Harrison and other Cambridge Ritualists. The influential Hungarian scholar of Greek mythology Karl Kerenyi likewise perceived an underlying triple moon goddess in Greek mythology."

Posted By David Wallace on Oct 17, 2008Every since I became a Christian in 1988, I have loathed the Halloween holiday. While I love some horror movies, a good haunted house and even monsters, gouls and ghosts in general, something about celebrating a holiday that is steeped in pagan rites and rituals just doesn’t sit right with me as a follower of Christ. So the question of whether to celebrate or even observe a holiday that in the United States has become the second most popular holiday next to Christmas can be a difficult one to deal with. What about the Christian reading this? Do you celebrate or not? If not actually celebrating, do you participate and if so to what degree? Before we answer these questions, let’s take a look at where Halloween came from in the first place. Halloween has its origins in the ancient Celtic festival known as Samhain."

The pentacle is probably the most common in paganism, often depicted in art and jewelry. Some say its five points represent the four directions plus the sacred spirit.2 People Wikimedia Commons As Harvard’s Pluralism Project notes, it is difficult to determine the number of pagan adherents around the world as estimates vary widely. The number may be anywhere between 200,000 and 1 million, or possibly more. Most pagans don’t exhibit their religious identity outside of the ritual space (unless they wear clothing or jewelry depicting pagan symbols such as the pentacle.) According to The Pagan Census, modern pagans are distributed fairly even throughout the U. S., with a slight majority on either coast. Men and women of all ages, races and backgrounds practice paganism, though the census said the community tends to skew toward white, middle class women.3 Sects Getty Images Contemporary paganism is widespread and somewhat scattered, hence the difficulty counting adherents. Modern paganism does not descend from a singular ancient religion but rather many ancient indigenous and folkloric traditions, and there is no central text to refer to that can shed light on doctrine. There are, however, subtle distinctions that delineate Celtic and northern European sects, Baltic and Slavic sects, Greek and southern European sects, American neopaganism, and other groupings around the world. Some covens (organized groups of pagans) worship specific deities, such as Diana or Odin."

For centuries this light-skinned, pagan people have claimed to be the long-lost descendants of Alexander the Great’s world-conquering armies, which invaded this region in the fourth century B. C. The animist Kalash are outwardly different from the darker-skinned Pakistani Muslims who live in the lowlands below them, so it seemed plausible. However, there had been no proof of this remarkable claim until the geneticists quoted in The New York Times found that the Kalash people’s DNA seems to indicate that they had an infusion of European blood during a “mixing event” at roughly the time of Alexander’s conquests. This isolated people are thus most likely the direct descendants of the ancient Greek-Macedonian armies who set up outposts in this region 2,300 years ago. Few outsiders have visited this forgotten tribe, whose homeland is located near the inaccessible mountain border of Taliban-controlled zones of Afghanistan. But in 2010 I and a friend, Adam Sulkowski, made a journey to the snow-capped Hindu Kush in search of this ancient European pagan people living in an unstable Muslim country. This is our story. University of Massachusetts-Dartmouth, Spring 2010For a number of years now, I have been teaching a class for the history department in which I do a “tour” of the great empires of antiquity, from pharaonic Egypt to Viking Europe. But for all my students’ interest in the Assyrians, the Babylonians, the Egyptians and the Romans, it is the exploits of Alexander the Great that inevitably lead to the most questions. Recently one of my students in History 101 asked me during class what happened to the far-flung garrisons of Greeks and Macedonians who were settled in the far corners of Alexander’s vast empire."

The Greeks gave us democracy, the Romans bridges and roads but it is probably from the ancient Babylonians that we get the seven-day week. Living in the cradle of civilisation, Mesopotamia - modern Iraq, their culture was most prominent in the second and first millennia BC before the rise of Greece or Rome.

Di-Ardaoin literally translates as 'the day between two fasts'. The Thai word for Friday is Wan Suk (วันศุกร์). Based on the Sanskrit word for Shukra, the name given to the planet Venus in Hindu astrology Yaum as-sabt (يوم السَّبْت) in Arabic means the end of the week."

"text": "\"Home >> Ancient Greeks Ancient Greeks QUESTION: Did the ancient Greeks believe in after life? ANSWER: Yes. For the ancient Greeks, their beliefs were based on a rather varied source of myths passed down from generations and adjusted according to individual preference, thus creating a diverse set of religious regulations and standards. One thing that seems to stay consistence within all groups of ancient Greeks, however, is that of life after death, a small variation of which makes them rather unique in their practice of paganism. Contrary to other pagan groups, the ancient Greeks believed that souls of the deceased were not reincarnated into another bodily form and placed back on earth, but lived on in either hell or heaven as a spirit. Their after life destination was presumably based on how well they lived their life prior to their death. The ancient Greeks, regardless of the nuances of the religious shifts, believed it was a necessity to live in such a way as to appease the gods and thus diligently sought to offer frequent sacrifices, prayers and hymns, living in constant awareness of the imminent anger of the gods. Because the after life scenario was so contingent upon their earthly behavior, the ancient Greeks took special care to stay on good terms with the gods on a daily basis. The sacrifices and such were considered by the gods to be a sufficient means of restitution and so it was with both great care and serious intention that the ancient Greeks followed through with those actions. More than this, those who passed on were carefully embalmed and placed safely into a tomb or cave with their personal possessions in an additional effort to make one last attempt to be acceptable and pleasing to the discerning minds who would send the souls to their prospective home."

Yet few know the real origin of Easter, or why the Christian-professing world, today, observes this particular holiday.by HOIM Staff YEHOVAH God's Word says unequivocally: \"\"And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which DECEIVETH THE WHOLE WORLD: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him\"\" (Revelation 12:9).

To make an informed decision, we need to understand the history and traditions of this festival. Religious Festivals Muslims have two celebrations each year, 'Eid al-Fitr and 'Eid al-Adha. The celebrations are based in the Islamic faith and religious way of life. There are some who argue that Halloween, at least, is a cultural holiday, with no religious significance.

We are the people most likely to have homes filled with shelves and shelves of books. And yes, we read them.

This is a partial legacy of the former SEPTA route number designations, which had the R1 Glenside designation for trains that turned at the station, paired with the Airport Line. That few trains actually terminated there and instead continued on to stations farther out was a contributing factor to the elimination of the route designators. As of 2017, most northbound trains on the Main Line continue as Lansdale/Doylestown Line, Warminster Line, or West Trenton Line trains. Those that do not terminate at Glenside. [ 2]History [ edit]The Main Line was mostly built by the North Pennsylvania Railroad. However, the oldest section was part of the Philadelphia, Germantown and Norristown Railroad (PG&N), the first railroad in Philadelphia. The first section of it opened on June 7, 1832, from downtown to Germantown (now on the Chestnut Hill East Line)."

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-)."

"text": "What is 'Ancillary Benefits'Ancillary benefits are a secondary type of health insurance coverage that covers miscellaneous medical expenses that are incurred during a stay at the hospital. Ancillary benefits can cover expenses such as ambulance transportation, blood, drugs and medical supplies like bandages. These benefits are usually layered on top of major medical coverage. Next Up Ancillary Revenue Benefit Allowance Group Health Insurance Plan Other Post-Retirement Benefits BREAKING DOWN 'Ancillary Benefits'Ancillary benefits are offered to cover those expenses which many neglect to factor into the cost of healthcare. They are usually quoted as a multiplier of daily benefits provided by the hospital. For example, an ancillary policy may cover 20-times this daily benefit. Why Companies Offer Ancillary Benefits Health plans aren't enough to keep employees healthy because they still need oral and vision care. Covering costs for these insurances make sense for companies because research shows that dental and vision plans can be effective preventive healthcare tools that may lower medical claims costs in the long run. For example, early symptoms of high blood pressure, diabetes and other diseases can be detected in an eye exam before showing up in a physical. Health insurance also doesn't provide income protection in the event of a death; this is the domain of life insurance – another popular corporate benefit."

Email: [email protected] Abstract Conventionally, “elderly” has been defined as a chronological age of 65 years old or older, while those from 65 through 74 years old are referred to as “early elderly” and those over 75 years old as “late elderly.” However, the evidence on which this definition is based is unknown. We have attempted to review the definition of elderly by analyzing data from long-term longitudinal epidemiological studies, and clinical and pathological studies that have been accumulated at the Tokyo Metropolitan Geriatric Hospital and the Tokyo Metropolitan Institute of Gerontology. Our recommendation might be a starting point in developing a strategy for a successful society by reviewing the definition of elderly based on comprehensive evidence in all aspects of social, cultural and medical sciences.

"text": "Home Coding Choosing the right level of complexity in medical decision-making Choosing the right level of complexity in medical decision-making When deciding which code to use, you need to look beyond patient risk By Kristy Welker, CPC - March 2007SHARE Facebook Twitter Published in the March 2007 issue of Today’s Hospitalist When choosing codes that reflect the complexity of their medical decision-making, many physicians think only of patients’ “risk,” from potential complications that may arise or even the chance that a patient may die. Stay up-to-date with coding changes: Coding Tips & Strategies But focus only on risk, and you may over-code. That’s because risk is only one of three components you need to consider when determining the complexity of medical decision- making. CPT’s definition of decision-making refers to the complexity of establishing a diagnosis and/or selecting a management option. The CPT recognizes four complexity levels “straightforward, low, moderate and high “as measured by the following three components:the risk of significant complications, morbidity and/or mortality, as well as co-morbidities, associated with a patient’s presenting problem (s), diagnostic procedure (s) and/or possible management options;the number of diagnoses and management options you have to consider; andthe amount and/or complexity of medical records, diagnostic tests and/or other information that you need to obtain, review and analyze. When billing for any level of decision-making, you must meet or exceed the requirements for that particular level in two of the three components. That in itself is a pretty complex calculation!Here’s a look at the three elements to consider when choosing the right level of complexity.1. Weighing patient risk When it comes to decision-making complexity for patient risk, choose the highest level of risk you need to take into account for that patient, according to the risk categories as outlined in “How patient risk factors into the complexity of decision-making. Pick the highest level of risk that you have to consider among three different risk-factor categories: presenting problem, diagnostic procedure (s) ordered and management options selected. If, for instance, you prescribe medications to treat a patient with a chronic stable illness (without exacerbation), the service would qualify for “moderate” complexity."

"text": "Related Articles1The Average Salary for a Primary Care Doctor2How to Learn Inpatient Medical Coding3How Can I Become a Billing Coder?4Veterinary Code of Professional Conduct Every illness and medical procedure has a unique and nationally recognized set of letters and numbers, or code that identifies it for the insurance company you hope will cover most of the bill. Coding begins with a physician diagnosing a patient's illness in the medical record. A medical coder then uses specialized computer software to identify the code that matches the diagnosis. The ancillary coder gets involved if the physician sends a patient for treatment she trusts another professional to perform, such as physical therapy for a slow-healing back strain. Ancillary Services In the medical world, ancillary services are supportive or diagnostic measures a physician may use to help treat patients. During a hospital stay, for instance, anything that does not include room and board or direct care by a physician or nurse is ancillary. Laboratory tests, X-rays, ultrasounds or services such as physical therapy all fall under this umbrella. An ancillary coder first identifies the patient's diagnosis and then matches the treatments or diagnostic studies ordered by his physician with the appropriate code. A typical workday for an ancillary coder requires extensive knowledge of medical terminology and excellent analytical skills. Although she has little direct patient contact, if any, an ancillary coder must possess the ability to communicate effectively with physicians and other health care professionals."

"text": "\"Estate Planning Inheritor's Guide Definition and Explanation of Ancillary Probate Ancillary Probate Is Necessary When You Own Property Out of State Share Flip Pin Email•••By Julie Garber Updated May 07, 2017Ancillary probate is what happens when a decedent owns real estate or tangible personal property in different states at the time of his death. This type of situation poses a unique challenge when you're planning your estate, not to mention for the person who will eventually serve as your personal representative. The laws of a state where property is physically located will typically govern what happens to if when the owner dies -- not the laws of the state where the decedent lived at the time of death. An entire additional probate process becomes necessary, thus the term \"\"ancillary\"\" probate. What is Ancillary Probate? Ancillary probate refers to a probate proceeding that is required in addition to the primary probate proceeding that takes place in your home state. This secondary probate is typically necessary because you own a piece of real estate, such as a vacation home, that is located elsewhere, but it can also apply to tangible personal property such as cars, boats or airplanes that are registered and titled out of state. Ancillary probate can become necessary if you own livestock or oil, gas or mineral rights that are attached to real estate located in another state. The Drawbacks of Ancillary Probate One of the biggest drawbacks of ancillary probate is the added cost of having to administer more than one probate estate, including multiple court fees, accounting fees and attorneys' fees. Another drawback can occur when an estate is intestate -- the deceased died without a valid last will and testament."

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

"text": "Grid Operations Benefits Executive Summary Grid operations uses and benefits for electricity storage (storage) include what are often referred to as ancillary services. The following excerpt from a paper provides an overview of how the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) defines ancillary services as follows: Ancillary services are those functions performed by electrical generating, transmission, system-control, and distribution system equipment and people to support the basic services of generating capacity, energy supply, and power delivery. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC 1995) defined ancillary services as “those services necessary to support the transmission of electric power from seller to purchaser given the obligations of control areas and transmitting utilities within those control areas to maintain reliable operations of the interconnected transmission system. ”Discussion Load Following Load Following is required during the so-called “shoulder hours” during the daily electric demand cycle: While electric demand increases in the morning as people get begin their day and get ready for work and school and other normal daily activities, and As electric demand diminishes in the evening as work and home activities diminish. As shown in Figure 1, as electric demand increases, generation output increases to provide load following up and as demand decreases generation output is reduced to provide load following down. Storage provides load following up by a) increasing discharge and/or b) reduced charging. Both of those modes of operation are shown graphically below in Figure 2a and 2b. Conversely, load following down is provided by a) reducing discharge and/or b) increasing charging. As shown in Figures 3a and 3b. The primary benefit of load following is the reduced need for generation equipment."

This article continues the Journal of AHIMA’s exploration of the different sections of ICD-10-PCS, focusing on the six Ancillary sections. These sections include imaging, nuclear medicine, radiation oncology, physical rehabilitation and diagnostic audiology, mental health, and substance abuse treatment. Some of the Ancillary section character definitions differ from other sections, such as the Medical and Surgical section. For example, the Ancillary sections do not include root operations, but rather the root type of the procedure for these sections. Additional differences include: Section C specifies the fifth character as radionuclide. Section D specifies the fifth character as modality qualifier and the sixth character as isotope.

"text": "\"Banking & Financial Services United Airlines tops in the world in ancillary revenue in new study Email Share Share Tweet Save Print Order Reprints Jul 16, 2014, 2:08pm CDTUnited Airlines (NYSE: UAL) is making a bundle from its ancillary fees, according to a new study released today by Idea Works Co., a consulting company specializing in ancillary airline revenue. The Shorewood, WI.-based consulting and research company's study shows just how much money airlines worldwide are making on an annual basis from a variety of ancillary fees, including checked baggage, onboard food purchases, seat upgrades, premium boarding privileges and miles sold to partner banks as part of various affinity credit card agreements. By a wide margin, Chicago-based United headed the list of the top 10 airlines globally in terms of total ancillary revenue for 2013. Idea Works pegged the United total at $5.7 million. The second highest ancillary revenue total was generated by Atlanta-based Delta Air Lines, with $2.53 million, followed by Dallas-based American Airlines in third place at $2.1 million. Other global airlines on the top 10 list included Air France/KLM, Lufthansa Group and Qantas Airways, the flagship carrier of Australia. According to Idea Works, United's credit card business and the sale of miles to partner banks, is a particularly huge source of revenue for the airline, with disclosed mileage sales in excess of $2.9 billion just for 2013. United's affinity credit card business is growing fast too. Over the past three years, spending by United co-branded credit cardholders increased by 35 percent, and active card members increased 16 percent. Additionally, United has expanded its affinity credit card program well beyond the United States, Idea Works noted, with co-branded United cards now offered in 15 countries, including Japan and Mexico, as of 2013."

S. C. § 1367 is a codification of the Supreme Court 's rulings on ancillary jurisdiction ( Owen Equipment & Erection Co. v. Kroger, 437U. S. 365 (1978)) and pendent jurisdiction ( United Mine Workers of America v. Gibbs, 383 U. S. 715 (1966)) and a superseding of the Court's treatment of pendent party jurisdiction ( Finley v. United States, 490 U. S. 545 (1989)). Historically there was a distinction between pendent jurisdiction and ancillary jurisdiction. But, under the ruling in Exxon, that distinction is no longer meaningful. Supplemental jurisdiction refers to the various ways a federal court may hear either: state law claims, claims from parties who lack the amount in controversy requirement of diversity jurisdiction, when defendants are joined in claims, or when multiple plaintiffs are joined in claims, like in class action suits. Contents [ hide ]1 Definition2 Pendent jurisdiction3 Ancillary jurisdiction4 References5 External links Definition [ edit]By default, courts have supplemental jurisdiction over \"\"all other claims that are so related . . . that they form part of the same case or controversy\"\" (§ 1367 (a)). The true test being that the new claim \"\"arises from the same set of operative facts.\"\" This means a federal court hearing a federal claim can also hear substantially related state law claims, thereby encouraging efficiency by only having one trial at the federal level rather than one trial in federal court and another in state court. However, if the case is brought as a diversity action (i.e., the basis for federal jurisdiction is that each defendant comes from a state different than each plaintiff), there generally is no supplemental jurisdiction if such claims would destroy complete diversity."

Land cover mapping has been conducted for each of ten geographic regions using early 1990s Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) imagery augmented by a suite of other geospatial ancillary data sets. Briefly, the NLCD was compiled through unsupervised clustering (Kelly and White, 1993) of Landsat TM data. The resulting spectral clusters were resolved into one of 21 thematic classes using logical modeling and ancillary data sources (e.g., census, slope/aspect/elevation, etc.) as required. The twenty-one thematic classes resemble the well-established Anderson land use/cover classification system (Anderson et al. 1976). Details of the classification process are discussed in Vogelmann et al. ( 1998a, 1998b). As land cover mapping of each region is completed, thematic accuracy is evaluated."

Published 21 June 2013 Last updated 26 March 2018 — see all updates From: Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency Contents Overview Types of borderline products Borderline medicines Borderline medical devices Getting advice about your product Further guidance Overview Some products are hard to distinguish from a medicine or a medical device, for example cosmetics, food supplements or biocidal products. These products are called borderline products until their status has been decided. MHRA determines whether a product falls within the definition of a medicine – ‘medicinal product’ or a medical device and provides information on whether a product is a medicine or a medical device or not. Types of borderline products The types of products which may fall in to the borderline category include:cosmeticsfood products, including, in particular, food supplementsherbal productsmedical devicesbiocidesmachinery/laboratory equipment There is also a borderline between medicinal products and medical devices. In these cases it will be the claims being made and the mode of action that will decide which regulatory regime will apply. Borderline medicines A medicinal product is:any substance or combination of substances presented as having properties of preventing or treating disease in human beingsany substance or combination of substances that may be used by or administered to human beings with a view to restoring, correcting or modifying a physiological function by exerting a pharmacological, immunological or metabolic action, or making a medical diagnosis You can find more detailed information in Regulation 2 of the Human Medicines Regulations. Food supplements that contain familiar substances like vitamins, amino acids or minerals are generally subject to food safety and food labelling legislation rather than medicines control. You can get advice on food and cosmetics from the Trading Standards Institute. MHRA decides whether the claims that are made or the active substance (s) present would mean that the product is regarded to be a medicinal product."

In some ways, ancillary businesses do supplement the incomes and activities of primary businesses. However, ancillary businesses also have engendered some controversy and even provoked limited legal action by the American Bar Association, a national entity that oversees the legal profession. Basic Definition The term \"\"ancillary business\"\" describes any business enterprise created by a law firm or lawyer that offers law-related services to clients of the law firm or to new clients who are not customers of the lawyer or law firm. The purposes of ancillary businesses are to provide clients of law firms with a broader range of services, strengthen relationships with clients and provide lawyers and law firms with additional income. Ancillary businesses are also referred to as \"\"dual practice\"\" businesses. Common Types Ancillary business take many forms and provide a wide array of services. Many ancillary businesses provide consulting services on topics such as health care, finances, education and the environment. Ancillary businesses also may be involved in government relations or lobbying for clients. Many ancillary businesses offer financial services such as accounting, financial planning or asset management."

It has a half- life in the body of 15 to 16 days and is found as injectable oil. Because it reacts in the body for so long, it can cause more water retention than other steroids and is best used as bulking compound in a stack. Testosterone is the male sex hormone responsible for many of the physical and emotional traits of men. It creates the deeper voices, sex drive, aggression and, of coarse, larger muscles in men. Testosterone makes the muscles retain more nitrogen, which in turn makes the muscle synthesize proteins better, producing larger muscles. The downside to testosterone steroids is that they aromatize, or turn into estrogen, in the body. When the body has too much estrogen it begins to take on female characteristics gynocomastia, water retention, fat gain, loss of sex drive and testicular shrinkage are all most certain side effects of taking testosterone and let ting it aromatize in the body. American athletes have a long and fond relationship with Testosterone cypionate. While Testosterone enanthate is manufactured widely throughout the world, cypionate seems to be almost exclusively an American item."

The activities that qualify for this deduction are not limited to what might be thought of as traditional manufacturing but include construction, engineering, architectural services, film production, some utility company activities, and producing certain other qualifying production property. Domestic production gross receipts on which the deduction is based include gross receipts derived from qualified film and qualifying production property, such as tangible personal property, sound recordings, and computer software. More and more businesses are being established to develop or distribute computer software, possibly because of the low overhead required to enter the industry. With the resulting increased business activity and technological advances being made in software development (especially in the field of accounting), and the new methods of distribution, it is increasingly important for tax practitioners to be familiar with the rules for the domestic production activities deduction (DPAD) for computer software, which are specialized and require some unique considerations."

"text": "Ancillary orders In addition to the sentence imposed, the judge or magistrate may also impose other orders, known as ancillary orders. Some ancillary orders are aimed at redressing the harm caused by an offender, such as compensation orders. Others aim to prevent future re-offending or repeat victimisation, including criminal behaviour orders and exclusion orders. In certain situations a judge or magistrate must impose an ancillary order; for example, an offender found guilty of causing death by dangerous driving must be disqualified from driving for a minimum of two years. Also, where an offence has resulted in personal injury, loss or damage a court must consider whether to make a compensation order. In other situations it is up to the judge or magistrate to decide whether an ancillary order is appropriate or necessary, taking into account the circumstances of the offence and the offender. In many cases the prosecution will invite the court to make relevant orders. There are a number of different ancillary orders available including:criminal behaviour orders;compensation orders;confiscation orders (Crown Court only);deprivation orders;disqualification from driving;drink banning orders;disqualification from being a company director;financial reporting order;football banning orders;forfeiture orders;parenting orders;restitution orders;restraining orders;serious crime prevention order (Crown Court only); andsexual harm prevention orders."

Stay up-to-date with coding changes: Coding Tips & Strategies But focus only on risk, and you may over-code. That’s because risk is only one of three components you need to consider when determining the complexity of medical decision- making. CPT’s definition of decision-making refers to the complexity of establishing a diagnosis and/or selecting a management option. The CPT recognizes four complexity levels “straightforward, low, moderate and high “as measured by the following three components:the risk of significant complications, morbidity and/or mortality, as well as co-morbidities, associated with a patient’s presenting problem (s), diagnostic procedure (s) and/or possible management options;the number of diagnoses and management options you have to consider; andthe amount and/or complexity of medical records, diagnostic tests and/or other information that you need to obtain, review and analyze. When billing for any level of decision-making, you must meet or exceed the requirements for that particular level in two of the three components. That in itself is a pretty complex calculation!Here’s a look at the three elements to consider when choosing the right level of complexity.1. Weighing patient risk When it comes to decision-making complexity for patient risk, choose the highest level of risk you need to take into account for that patient, according to the risk categories as outlined in “How patient risk factors into the complexity of decision-making. Pick the highest level of risk that you have to consider among three different risk-factor categories: presenting problem, diagnostic procedure (s) ordered and management options selected. If, for instance, you prescribe medications to treat a patient with a chronic stable illness (without exacerbation), the service would qualify for “moderate” complexity."

As to competing jurisdiction over assets arising between parallel actions, or the effect of the receiver’s intervention in the parallel action, see infra Section 3.01.

Learn more »21 June 2017 | As ancillary revenues are on the agenda of every airline, much has been written and said about the grand vision of airlines as omni-channel retailers, in which the in-flight part is just another touchpoint in an end-to-end, personalized, seamless, digital travel eco-system. However, as airlines are only just embarking on this merchandizing journey, we take a look at the current state of inflight retail, which sees the opening up of a cabin environment that was previously ‘closed’ because of proprietary IFE platforms and the lack of Internet connectivity. From In-Flight Entertainment to In-Flight Engagement platforms Android-based in-seat IFE platforms, wireless IFE, Internet connectivity, plus the large number of passengers – and increasingly cabin crew as well – that carry a digital device, provides airlines with much more control how to move beyond providing just entertainment to new opportunities to generate ancillary revenues in-flight. Jeff Standerski from Rockwell Collins summarizes this evolution nicely: “Passengers’ expectations have evolved from a passive ‘Please entertain me’ to a proactive ‘I want to entertain myself’. Our industry needs a new term to describe a holistic experience that is equal in every way to how people leverage their devices on terra firma. The future of the passenger/cabin interaction is beyond one of mere entertainment and can be more accurately described as one of deep and ongoing engagement: In-Flight Passenger Engagement. ”A similar vision is painted by Thales CFO Fred Schreiner: “We are going to go into a period where it’s about engagement. How do we move from an in-seat system, where an airline is looking at cost line, to an in-seat solution coupled with connectivity that moves to a revenue line?” Schreiner said families will be able to plan their holidays from the seatback: booking restaurants and exploring street level views of a city’s sights."

Yes Portable Network Graphics ( PNG, pronounced / ˌ p iː ɛ n ˈ dʒ iː / [2] PEE -en- JEE or / p ɪ ŋ / [3] [4] PING) is a raster graphics file format that supports lossless data compression. PNG was created as an improved, non-patented replacement for Graphics Interchange Format (GIF), and is the most widely used lossless image compression format on the Internet. [ citation needed]PNG supports palette-based images (with palettes of 24-bit RGB or 32-bit RGBA colors), grayscale images (with or without alpha channel for transparency), and full-color non-palette-based RGB/RGBA images (with or without alpha channel). PNG was designed for transferring images on the Internet, not for professional-quality print graphics, and therefore does not support non-RGB color spaces such as CMYK. A PNG file contains a single image in an extensible structure of \"\"chunks\"\", encoding the basic pixels and other information such as textual comments and integrity checks documented in RFC 2083. [ 5]PNG files nearly always use file extension PNG or png and are assigned MIME media type image/png. [ 6] PNG was published as informational RFC 2083 in March 1997 and as an ISO/IEC standard in 2004.

Determine the value of capital assets in the following manner:30.20.10.a Purchased assets. Use historical costs including all nonrefundable purchase taxes (e.g., sales taxes), and all appropriate ancillary costs less any trade discounts or rebates. If the historical cost is not practicably determinable, use the estimated cost. If land is purchased, the capitalized value is to include the purchase price plus costs such as legal fees, filing, and excavation costs incurred to put the land in condition for its intended use. The cost of the land also includes indefinite land use rights, such as easements, mineral, timber, and water rights, acquired with the purchase of the underlying land. Land use rights acquired separately from a land purchase and those with definite useful lives are classified as intangible assets. Building costs include both acquisition and capital improvement costs, including, in enterprise and trust funds, net construction period interest. Capital improvements include structures (e.g., office buildings, storage quarters, and other facilities) and all other property permanently attached to, or an integral part of, the structure (e.g., loading docks, heating and air-conditioning equipment, and refrigeration equipment).

"text": "\"ED Facility Level Coding Guidelines Introduction A part of the Federal Balanced Budget Act of 1997 required HCFA (now CMS) to create a new Medicare \"\"Outpatient Prospective Payment System\"\" (OPPS) for hospital outpatient services; analogous to the Medicare prospective payment system for hospital inpatients known as \"\"Diagnosis Related Groups\"\" or DRG's. APC's or \"\"Ambulatory Payment Classifications\"\" are the government's method of paying for facility outpatient services for the Medicare program. APC's apply only to hospitals, and have no impact on physician payments under the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule. For further information about APC's, see the Frequently Asked Questions on the ACEP website. Facility coding guidelines are inherently different from professional coding guidelines. Facility coding reflects the volume and intensity of resources utilized by the facility to provide patient care, whereas professional codes are determined based on the complexity and intensity of provider performed work and include the cognitive effort expended by the provider. As such, there is no definitive strong correlation between facility and professional coding and thus no rational basis for the application of one set of derived codes, either facility or professional, to the determination of the other on a case-by-case basis. In 2011 OPPS, CMS restated its position on \"\"Triage-only\"\" visits confirming that it does not specify the type of staff who may provide services. \"\" A hospital may bill a visit code based on the hospital's own coding guidelines which must reasonably relate the intensity of hospital resources to different levels of HCPCS codes. Services furnished must be medically necessary and documented. \"\""

"text": "Your will leaves directions about how you want your property to be distributed upon your death, but property distribution gets complicated if you own property in more than one state. A state’s probate courts only have authority to issue decisions about property within that state, so an additional procedure, called ancillary probate, is typically required before property located in another state can be distributed. Domiciliary Probate A primary probate proceeding, or domiciliary probate, typically held in the decedent’s state of residence, first establishes the validity of the decedent’s will. If the court determines the will is valid, it admits it into probate and appoints an executor to manage the decedent’s estate. Frequently, courts appoint the person named in the decedent’s will to be the executor; this person gathers the estate property, pays debts and distributes any remaining property to beneficiaries according to the testator’s wishes as set out in the will. Protect your loved ones. Start My Estate Plan Ancillary Probate When a decedent owns property located in his state of residence, that state’s courts can issue the necessary orders to distribute the property, but cannot issue orders regarding property located or titled in other states. For example, if the decedent lived in Kansas but owned a vacation home in Colorado, only a Colorado probate court has the authority to address the vacation property. This secondary, or ancillary, probate proceeding is an abbreviated, but necessary, procedure that takes place after the primary probate proceeding in the decedent’s state of residence. Though the basic concepts of probate and ancillary probate are similar across states, each state has its own laws so the process may be somewhat different in each state."

( Leadership)Congruence is the capacity to be centered, authentic, and aligned with one’s purpose both internally (how one feels) and externally (how one acts). Recall that getting to wholeness was about “stepping in” to gather all the fragmented parts of yourself. The next capacity, flexibility, was about “stepping up” as a leader who proactively shapes and engages with life rather than just reacting to it. Congruence is about “stepping out,” venturing out into the world to be of service in a way that is uniquely yours. Conscious leaders know what their purpose is, they know their story, they know where they came from, and they know where they are going. They are living their swadharma —their unique personal calling. Congruence comes about by knowing your own beliefs, being able to articulate those beliefs, and manifesting those same beliefs by your behavior. Essentially, you are able to walk the talk. People are watching you all the time, and when you are in harmony, they see your beliefs, goals, and priorities by watching your behavior."

"text": "Q: What is a freight forwarder? A: Freight forwarding is a service used by companies that deal in international or multi-national import and export. While the freight forwarder doesn’t actually move the freight itself, it acts as an intermediary between the client and various transportation services. Sending products from one international destination to another can involve a multitude of carriers, requirements and legalities. A freight forwarding service handles the considerable logistics of this task for the client, relieving what would otherwise be a formidable burden. Freight forwarding services guarantee that products will get to the proper destination by an agreed upon date, and in good condition. The freight forwarding service utilizes established relationships with carriers of all kinds, from air freighters and trucking companies, to rail freighters and ocean liners. Freight forwarding services negotiate the best possible price to move the product along the most economical route by working out various bids and choosing the one that best balances speed, cost and reliability. A freight forwarding service generally provides one or more estimates to the client along with advisement, when necessary. Considerations that effect price will range from origin and destination to special requirements, such as refrigeration or, for example, transport of potentially hazardous materials."

A freight forwarder assists in the careful storage of the cargo of the clients at his warehouse. A broker on the other hand is not a carrier. In fact a broker would arrange transportation with a carrier. A broker works either on behalf of the shipper or on behalf of the carrier. One of the main differences between a freight forwarder and a broker is that a freight forwarder can be held statutorily responsible for damage or loss of the cargo. Moreover he issues bills of lading with his name in the corresponding column. A broker on the other hand cannot be held statutorily responsible for damage or loss of the cargo.

The primary difference between a 40ft Standard height container and a 40ft High Cube Container is the difference in height of exactly one foot. The 40ft Standard container is 8ft 6 in high on the exterior which corresponds to a 7ft 10in height on the interior. A 40ft Standard container has 2,350 cu ft of storage space on the interior, whereas the 40ft High Cube container has 2,694 cu ft of storage space. This additional height gives the 40ft High Cube container an extra 344 cu ft of storage capacity. All the other specifications remain the same in terms of the width and length. Another difference in the 40ft High Cube container versus the 40ft Standard container is the weight. The 40ft High Cube container weighs 8,775 lbs. The 40ft Standard container weighs 8,000 lbs. Both the 40ft High Cube container and 40ft Standard container have a Maximum Gross Weight (weight of container and the cargo inside) of 67,200 lbs."

You may have many questions about freight forwarders, but you at least knew enough to make it to this article! Alas, no matter where you currently fall on the totem pole of freight forwarder knowledge, our goal is to answer all your questions – including the ones you didn’t know you had. Want to skip the basics? Jump ahead to freight forwarders for: Business shipments Personal shipments What is a freight forwarder? There are some pretty complicated definitions out there, but in the most basic sense, these firms are responsible for helping you arrange your imports and exports – dealing with the logistics of preparing documentation, tracking cargo, or filing insurance claims, for example. Some freight forwarding firms offer more options than others, and many will let you pick and choose the services that make sense for your organization. At the most extreme end, if a shipper with a consistently high volume of cargo ordered “the works” from a freight forwarder, that firm would provide 24/7 tracking on all shipments; document preparation on all imports and exports; warehouse booking and surveillance; document delivery; insurance services; and assistance with freight consolidation/deconsolidation, collection, and negotiation.

They are: Do current metrics used to quantify logistics costs (specifically, the CASS estimate of logistics costs) accurately measure the costs associated with business logistics activities within the United States? Are the frequent comparisons of logistics costs to GDP (namely the practice of stating as a percentage the share of GDP attributable to logistics costs) misrepresentations of what the figures in question represent? This report concludes that the CASS estimate of logistics costs is generally valid as a measure of business freight logistics costs. The CASS estimate does not include passenger logistics costs associated with business activities. While valid, the CASS methodology could be improved by making four adjustments."

"text": "Incoterms, promulgated by the International Chamber of Commerce, is an acronym for “International commercial terms,” and provide a standard set of definitions for trade terms (also known as delivery terms and terms of sale) for use in international trade. The eleven terms (as of Incoterms 2010, effective January, 2011) are: EXW, FCA, FAS, FOB, CPT, CFR, CIF, CIP, DAT, DAP and DDP. Incoterms facilitate international commerce by promoting common and precise understanding between a seller and buyer of their respective operational obligations, costs and passage of risk of cargo loss or damage under various specified delivery arrangements. Citing a particular Incoterm in a sales contract will also aid transportation intermediaries, banks, and service providers involved in shipping or financing the goods better performing their functions. Incoterms are also designed to reduce the likelihood of disputes between a seller and buyer over their respective responsibilities and costs. Incoterms first edition was published in 1936, in English and French. Since then there have been five revisions at approximately 10 year intervals, with transaction into most commercially used languages. The 1990 revision first addressed the use of electronic messages (EDI) used in lieu of traditional shipping documents. The revision in 2000 made substantive changes to the customs clearance and payment of customs duty obligations under FAS and DEQ terms; and the loading and unloading obligations under FCA. And Incoterms 2010 eliminated terms DAF, DES, DEQ and DDU, replacing these with new terms DAT or DAP."

As the name may indicate, it is a method of transportation of goods from Point A to Point B using Multiple Modes of transportation, covered under one bill of lading.. This Point A and Point B are in different countries.. Multiple modes of transport include – road, rail, air and sea.. So who then is a Multi Modal Transport Operator..?? Based on the above definition, we can say that under the current scenario all of the below entities MAY be termed as a Multi Modal Transport Operator : Shipping Lines – because under Carrier Haulage, they undertake rail, road modes of transport – either via their own infrastructure or via 3rd party Freight Forwarder – because in a lot of cases specially where they issue House Bills, they are taking on the role of the carrier and as such may and in a lot of cases do offer rail, road and sea modes of transport – either via their own infrastructure or via 3rd party NVOCC Operators – because in most cases the NVOCC performs/undertakes the services of a Shipping Line/Freight Forwarder combined, alongwith the risks/responsibilities that comes with performing such services.. This could include but not restricted to offering rail, road and sea modes of transport – either via their own infrastructure or via 3rd party In short – any entity that signs a muli-modal contract, assumes the responsibility for the same, and issues a multi-modal transport document to the merchant..

[ 7] Most deliveries at this time were made on foot and bicycles were used for longer trips. The American Messenger Company focused primarily on package delivery to retail stores with special delivery mail delivered for its largest client the United States Postal Service. In 1913 the company acquired a Model T Ford as its first delivery vehicle. Casey and Ryan merged with a competitor, Evert Mc Cabe, and formed Merchants Parcel Delivery. Consolidated delivery was also introduced, combining packages addressed to a certain neighborhood onto one delivery vehicle. ["

"text": "Air Waybill An AWB is a bill of lading which covers both domestic and international flights transporting goods to a specified destination. Technically, it is a non-negotiable instrument of air transport which serves as a receipt for the shipper, indicating that the carrier has accepted the goods listed therein and obligates itself to carry the consignment to the airport of destination according to specified conditions. Normally AWB refers to the Air Waybill issued by carrying airlines and also called Master Air Waybill (MAWB) which comes with three digits of numeric airline identification codes issued by IATA to non-U. S. based airlines and Air Transport Association of America to U. S. based airlines. However, air freight forwarders also issue HAWB (House Air Waybill) to their customers for each of the shipments. Aircraft Container A unit load device (ULD) which links directly with the airplane cargo handling and restraint system. Allotment A term used to describe blocked space by airlines on behalf of forwarders/shippers. ATAActual Time of Arrival, or Airport-To-Airport, or Air Transport Association of America.

Layers of Logistics Explained Logistics // Steve Norall // August 8, 2013 // 41 comments0 shares Learning the difference between a third party logistics (3PL) and fourth party logistics (4PL) as well as 1PL and 2PL , and the rise of even Fifth Party Logistics (5PLs) is both confusing and highly debated among those in the supply chain industry.3PL vs 4PL: The Great (Linked In) Debate This is evident in a Linked In Discussion ( which you can read in it's entirety here) where the debate of 3PL vs 4PL garnished 70 comments!In the 3PL vs 4PL debate, Adrian Chen, an Advisory Board Member (Asia Pacific) at ISCEA -International Supply Chain Education Alliance had this great comment to finish the debate:\"\"Great comments from many herein, although it would be fantastic to hear more from other logistics professionals, but with gratitude, many of the comments hold true to the fact that we have an over-lapping of the functionality from within the 3PLs in \"\"walking that extra mile\"\" to accommodate many of the responsibilities that would assume a 4PL's role ultimately. I see the generation of 4PLs evolving & advancing to an extent from the legacy 3PLs work scope with specific themes created to address value-add requirements with their clients' partnerships. The basic concepts of 3PLs are hereto stay (specifically the assets-based providers) & the evolution to extend services as a 4PL will be the deciding factor many shippers (small companies or large multinational corporations) stand on in their selection of a provision partner. Naturally, we do see spin-offs again, from a 4PL pint-of-view, whereby some retain specialty in specific knowledge & skill-sets (ie. IT / MRP / direct & indirect sourcing etc. ), but yet there are many of the 4PLs who would be entrenched in the general provisions as \"\"3PL managers\"\" to co-ordinate the overall fulfillment processes B2B2C ultimately. \"\" 3PL vs 4PL: The Academic Definitions from CSCMPThe Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals’ glossary, defines both 3PL and 4PL, and is one I have found to be generally true across the board. The CSCMP defines 3PL as follows: Outsourcing all or much of a company’s logistics operations to a specialized company. The term \"\"3PL\"\" was first used in the early 1970s to identify intermodal marketing companies (IMCs) in transportation contracts."

Your freight forwarder should be a trusted partner for your logistics needs, that is, if they are doing their job right. In this fast-changing world which is highly reliant on supply chain optimization, cost efficiency, timeliness, and consistent service, shippers, importer, exporters and others involved in the supply chain must make a determination on which freight forwarder to select for their international and domestic logistic needs. Before we get to 10 tips on how to choose a freight forwarder, there is some additional information to mention. How do importers/exporters identify and select the right international freight forwarder? To start with, the size of your company shouldn’t determine the size of your freight forwarder (size of of your freight forwarder is defined as a combination of volume shipped, revenues and # of employees). Many large companies use small freight forwarders and many small companies use large freight forwarders. Therefore there are many other questions that must be answered and other criteria analyzed to conclude which freight forwarder is right for you and your company."

"text": "\"The shot heard 'round the world Other phrases about: Politics What's the meaning of the phrase 'The shot heard 'round the world'? A line from Emerson's Concord Hymn. Later used to denote shots of various forms that had international significance. What's the origin of the phrase 'The shot heard 'round the world'? The phrase originates in Ralph Waldo Emerson's Concord Hymn, 1837 and relates to the start of the American Revolutionary War: By the rude bridge that arched the flood, Their flag to April's breeze unfurled; Here once the embattled farmers stood; And fired the shot heard 'round the world. On 19 April 1775, on Lexington Square (Lexington is between Boston and Concord), the British Major John Pitcairn and his six light Infantry companies faced about seventy colonial militiamen. The details of the ensuing skirmish, and critically who fired the first shot, are disputed. What is clear is that this was \"\"the shot heard 'round the world\"\". In his use of that phrase Emerson emphasized the wide importance of what might have been seen by those present as merely a local incident. He may have been alluding to the sharp crack that signalled the start of the war with the British and the 'no going back' nature of the starting point of conflict."

S. standard issue, select-fire infantry rifle chambered for a full-power .30 caliber class cartridge. Less than ten years after Uncle Sam issued the M14 to the troops, the M16 succeeded the “United States Rifle, 7.62 mm, M14.” And yet the M14 remains in service, for three reasons: durability, reliability and accuracy. Springfield Armory’s semi-automatic M1A is all that and a bag of chips and you don’t have to enlist to get our hands on one . . . With its walnut stock and Parkerized metal, the Springfield M1A is a line-by-line clone of the as-issued M14, from its flash hider (or a muzzle break in AWB states) to its butt flapper. While the M1A is a semiautomatic-only rifle it’s close enough to the fully-automatic M14 to make the most grizzled Vietnam vet turn all dewy-eyed. The Quest for (Select) Fire — and Back Popular culture has decided that a submachine gun is any automatic rife. In fact, the term refers to a fully-automatic rifle that fires pistol-caliber cartridges. Throughout much of WW2, U. S. infantrymen used submachine guns to great effect. While soldiers could lay down a curtain of fire the guns proved to be underpowered (i.e., not lethal enough) in many circumstances."

It brought an immediate gobbled response, confirming the presence of turkeys on a roost a few hundred yards away. Moving quietly in the direction of the gobble, I picked a spot and sat down with my back against the broad base of an old oak tree. I figured I was about 200 yards from the roosted turkeys. The grayness of dawn was beginning to silhouette nearby oak motts when I heard the flapping of wings, signaling the turkeys’ flight to the ground. A few cutts and yelps scratched out on a round piece of slate brought another gobbled response. I repeated the exercise, but the next gobble was fainter than the first. This smart tom was herding his hens away from the roost and me. I waited another 30 minutes, anxious and hoping to hear the distinctive ringing sound that only big tom turkeys make. But only oppressive silence followed, and I consoled myself with thoughts of yesterday’s success."

"text": "This article is titled “Caliber Confusion” because calibers are confusing. Don’t allow anyone to make you feel stupid if you don’t intuitively understand this stuff — because there’s nothing intuitive about it. Safety Note It is very dangerous to fire ammunition of the wrong size for your gun. Most firearms have the correct caliber stamped on the side of the barrel or frame. If yours does not, don’t simply guess at the correct ammunition size. Take the gun to a gunsmith or to the gun store from which you purchased it, and have an expert measure your firearm’s chamber. Generally speaking, caliber refers to the size of the bullet a gun will fire, and also usually refers specifically to the bullet’s diameter or to the bore size of the gun that fires it. But due to all sorts of vagaries in the ammunition-manufacturing world, the nominal caliber designation isn’t always the actual bullet diameter or chamber measurement. Nor is the bullet diameter the only factor that matters, as we will see in the discussion below. Sometimes caliber is measured on the imperial scale, by decimal fractions of inches."

"text": "\"PART III FULL AUTOMATIC MACHINE GUN DEVELOPMENTChapter 1 Maxim Machine Guns Maxim's Early Years For many years nothing surpassed the American gunmaker's ingenuity. Even refinement of existing firing mechanisms was considered a task challenging the utmost skill of any designer. However, the world did not reckon with a young man from America, Hiram Stevens Maxim, who was for the first time to combine the words \"\"automatic\"\" and \"\"machine gun.\"\" He accomplished this by using the power of the recoil forces generated from the explosion of the powder charge in the cartridge to produce the entire cycle of operation. The only human energy now required was for releasing the sear. The internal forces of the gun performed the loading, firing, extracting, ejecting, and cocking of the piece. Maxim had not previously been a gun designer. His meager schooling had deprived him of the engineering misconceptions preached in his day. He did not believe a better machine gun design was impossible. The simple mechanism he originated as a first attempt worked so successfully that for the last 64 years the famous Maxim automatic machine guns have been basically unchanged."

Released: 2001Listen to Bruce Springsteen - American Skin (41 Shots) on Jango Get the Sheet Music Play @ Amazon Music Artistfacts ® Lyrics Songfacts ®This song is about Amadou Diallo, a Guinean immigrant who was killed in his New York City doorway when New York City police shot at him 41 times after mistaking his wallet for a gun. Springsteen felt that the shooting was an egregious over-reaction by the police, who killed an innocent man. This protest number was written in 2000 and played for the first time at a concert in Atlanta on June 4, 2000, over a year into Springsteen's tour with the reunited E Street Band. A live version was released on the Live in New York City album, and the same version appeared a few years later on The Essential Bruce Springsteen. In 2014, a studio version appeared on the album High Hopes. The Boss said in the liner notes for the album that he felt is was among the best songs he had written and deserved a proper studio recording. The song sparked enormous media coverage when it was part of The Boss' tour-ending 10-night stand at Madison Square Garden in 2000. The performances of the song in New York resulted in protests by the New York City Police Department and the Police Benevolent Association, who saw it as an attack on the NYPD (some cops refused to work security at the shows). Springsteen has stressed that this song is not anti-police, but anti-tragedy."

"text": "Where Did the Shot Heard Round the World Happen? Rebecca Beatrice Brooks January 5, 2012 3 Comments The Shot Heard Round the World occurred during a brief battle between British troops and local minutemen at the North Bridge in Concord, Massachusetts during the Revolutionary War. When Did the Shot Heard Round the World Happen? The shot heard round the world took place on April 19, 1775 after British troops searching for ammunition stockpiles in Concord encountered the local minutemen. The battle came to be known as the Battle of Concord. Several of the British soldiers were killed during the battle and the battle itself was considered the first victory in the fight for America’s independence. As a result, the battle inadvertently kick started not only the Siege of Boston but the Revolutionary War as well. What is the Meaning of the Shot Heard Round the World? Over the years, the meaning of the phrase, as well as the exact location of the Shot Heard Round the World, has gotten muddled. Many writers and historians have attributed the phrase to the first shot fired at the Battle of Lexington, which occurred earlier in the day and was one of the first battles of the Revolutionary War."

"text": "The Man Who Fired The Shot Heard ’Round The World Published: Thursday, April 19, 2012April 19, 1775, should be regarded as important a date to Americans as July 4, 1776. It’s a shame that we don’t celebrate it as enthusiastically as we do Independence Day. It’s even more shameful that many Americans don’t even remember what happened on this day back in 1775. For the record, historians call this day, “Patriot’s Day.” More specifically, it was the day that the shot was fired that was heard ’round the world. It was the day America’s War for Independence began. Being warned of approaching British troops by Dr. Joseph Warren, Pastor Jonas Clark and his male congregants of the Church of Lexington (numbering 60-70) were the ones that stood with their muskets in front of the Crown’s troops (numbering over 800), who were on orders to seize a cache of arms which were stored at Concord and to arrest Sam Adams and John Hancock (who were known to be in the area, and who had actually taken refuge in Pastor Clark’s home). According to eyewitnesses, the king’s troops opened fire on the militiamen almost without warning, immediately killing eight of Pastor Clark’s parishioners. In self defense, the Minutemen returned fire. These were the first shots of the Revolutionary War."

The gunman, James T. Hodgkinson, a 66-year-old unemployed home inspector from southern Illinois, died after the shootout. Two Capitol Police officers assigned to Scalise’s security detail were wounded. Hodgkinson, who had been living in his van in Alexandria for the past few months, had posted anti-Trump rhetoric on his Facebook page and had written letters to his hometown newspaper blaming Republicans for what he considered an agenda favoring the wealthy. The shooting, coming amid harsh political rancor and a divided country, reverberated through Washington and beyond, as Trump and members of Congress began talking about unity for the first time since the presidential election.

The men, described as being 'of Mediterranean origin', mowed down up to 20 revellers as they careered across London Bridge in an 'S shape' at 50mph before they began 'randomly stabbing' people in nearby Borough Market. Today five people were reportedly arrested in an early morning raid on a block of flats in Barking, east London, as police launch a major investigation into what is the third terror attack on British soil in the last three months. Speaking outside No 10 today, Theresa May confirmed the London Bridge atrocity is not directly connected to last month's Manchester bombing or Westminster attack in April but that all three are linked by 'the single evil ideology of Islamist extremism'. The terror threat level remains at 'severe', meaning another attack is 'highly likely'. The three attackers, who were wearing fake suicide vests, shouted 'this is for Allah' as they used 12-inch hunting knives to attack revellers at busy bars and restaurants in the market, sending dozens of others fleeing for their lives. One of the suspects was wearing an Arsenal football shirt. Witnesses said the gang smashed pub windows and reportedly cut the throats of drinkers as civilians barricaded themselves inside and fought off the attackers with pint glasses and chairs. One witness saw a 'dark-skinned' man in a red tracksuit 'calmly' stab a man three times while another witnessed a victim being stabbed in the face."

By Elizabeth Nix// January 22, 2015First Revolutionary Battle at Lexington and Concord In April 1775, when British troops are sent to confiscate colonial weapons, they run into an untrained and angry militia. This ragtag army defeats 700 British soldiers and the surprise victory bolsters their confidence for the war ahead. Print Cite On the night of April 18, 1775, hundreds of British troops set off from Boston toward Concord, Massachusetts, in order to seize weapons and ammunition stockpiled there by American colonists. Early the next morning, the British reached Lexington, where approximately 70 minutemen had gathered on the village green. Someone suddenly fired a shot—it’s uncertain which side—and a melee ensued. When the brief clash ended, eight Americans lay dead and at least an equal amount were injured, while one redcoat was wounded. The British continued on to nearby Concord, where that same day they encountered armed resistance from a group of patriots at the town’s North Bridge. Gunfire was exchanged, leaving two colonists and three redcoats dead."

He's pictured above with Marilou Danley, who's believed to be his girlfriend At least 58 people are dead and 527 injured after a 72-minute shooting by a lone-wolf gunman who unleashed thousands of rounds of ammunition onto a Las Vegas music festival from a hotel room 1,200 feet away - and more details are still emerging. Police say 64-year-old multimillionaire Stephen Craig Paddock used automatic weapons to rain down gunfire on a crowd of 22,000 people attending the Route 91 Harvest Festival Sunday night. He was found with 16 guns in a room in the Mandalay Bay hotel, across the street from the festival. Headliner Jason Aldean was in the middle of his set just after 10pm when a rumble of gunfire rang out, the sounds of screams and stampeding humans cutting through the country music. It took police an hour and 12 minutes from the first 911 call to locate Paddock in the building and break into his room. They used explosives to blow the door off his room, but by then it was too late - Paddock had shot himself dead. It's unclear how long after he first started shooting that Paddock committed suicide. Inside the room they found an arsenal of firearms and a large cache of ammunition. A law enforcement source told the Wall Street Journal that they found at least one fully automatic rifle among the batch, which included AR-15-style rifles and AK-47-style rifles."

A broader definition comes from the World Wide Web Consortium ( W3C ):\"\"The World Wide Web is the universe of network-accessible information, an embodiment of human knowledge. \"\" The Web, as it's commonly known, is often confused with the internet. Although the two are intricately connected, they are different things. The internet is, as its name implies, a network -- a vast, global network that incorporates a multitude of lesser networks. As such, the internet consists of supporting infrastructure and other technologies. In contrast, the Web is a communications model that, through HTTP, enables the exchange of information over the internet. Tim Berners-Lee is the inventor of the Web and the director of the W3C, the organization that oversees its development. Berners-Lee developed hypertext, the method of instant cross-referencing that supports communications on the Web, making it easy to link content on one web page to content located elsewhere. The introduction of hypertext revolutionized the way people used the internet."

"text": "\"Civil War Turning Points Turning Points of the American Civil War The Pen is Mightier than the Sword Introduction While major battles are normally associated with turning points of wars, it was a single battle coupled with the swift stroke of the pen by President Lincoln that generated the Major Turning Point of the American Civil War (1861-1865). Turning points are not always agreed upon, however. The objective in this lesson is to encourage the reader to decide whether or not the Turning Point of the Civil War has been established with the information presented. Summary President Abraham Lincoln signed the Preliminary Emancipation Proclamation on September 22, 1862, and issued the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863. President Lincoln, however, signed the Preliminary Emancipation Proclamation just days after the Union victory at the Battle of Antietam . He was able to broaden the base of the war and may have prevented England and France from lending support to a Country that engaged in slavery. See also The Trent Affair, Preventing Diplomatic Recognition of the Confederacy, and American Civil War and International Diplomacy. In practical terms, the Emancipation Proclamation had little immediate impact: it freed slaves only in the Confederate states, while leaving slavery intact in the Border States, and the freedom it promised depended upon absolute Union military victory. The proclamation would discourage foreign recognition of the Confederacy and it would allow the arming of some 180,000 blacks for the Union military. Antietam was the major turning point of the Civil War."

And one she would rather not discuss at all: One story that keeps on circulating around Hollywood is that Jamie Lee Curtis was born an hermaphrodite and had to undergo surgery after birth in order to become legally female! This has been told to me by people who have worked on films with Jamie and by one physician who claims to have seen the records at Cedars Sinai. According to an oft-repeated whisper, Jamie Lee Curtis acknowledged that she was born an intersexual (the preferred medical term for persons of ambiguous gender, replacing ‘hermaphrodite’). So?

"text": "Home » Phillipian Articles about diversity at Andover » Spike Lee Addresses Modern Day Racism, Provokes Debate » The Dictionary Definition: Response to Spike Lee The Dictionary Definition: Response to Spike Lee Advertisements By English 542Aa The members of English 542AA African-American Literature are Hannah Bardo, Zahra Bhaiwala, Paul Bloemsma, Amanda Brisco, Duncan Crystal, Jennifer Gerald, Lauren Glynn, Geoffrey Green, Gauri Thaker and Stephen Xenakis. It is taught by Tasha M. Hawthorne In the January 22, 2010 edition of The Phillipian, Mr. Hoyt, the Associate Dean of Students, wrote an open letter to Spike Lee requesting that Mr. Lee “accept a correction to a misconception [he] presented at the All-School Meeting.” In response to a question about whether or not black people can be racist, Mr. Lee stated that his definition of racism required the use of institutionalized power by one controlling race over another. He continued that because blacks have not had access to this power, they inherently could not be racist. Mr. Lee did, however, clarify that everyone can be prejudiced, and that the use of power distinguishes those two terms. Mr. Hoyt argued in his letter that defining racism as requiring power was “specious” or deceptively appealing. As he put it: “ [a]sserting vociferously that that is how you choose to define the term and adding that to do so draws an important distinction between the concepts of prejudice and racism only compounds the problem of corrupting a perfectly functional concept by conflating other terms associated with it.” In other words, Mr. Hoyt believes that fusing terms like “power” and “oppression” corrupts the definition of “racism.” The association of terms in another word’s definition does not necessarily corrupt that definition; in fact, it is useful in enhancing that definition’s clarity. For example, the conflation of the term “fruit” with “apple” does not corrupt apple’s definition."

Realizing that bigger is not always better, Bruce Lee’s muscle training philosophy evolved. He stopped working out with his 1965-1970 Bruce Lee Weight Training Bodybuilding Workout for Muscle Growth and quickly developed a new 1970 workout plan that dramatically took him down in both body weight and size. The earlier-era “165 pounds of pure muscle on a 5’7″ frame” Bruce Lee body famously transformed himself into the “nimble and sinewy 135 pounds of focused strength in a small, yet explosive package” Bruce Lee body we all know today. When we think of him, we visualize Bruce in this leaner post-1970 era when he made all of his best movies. Along with a proper diet and cardio fitness routine, this is the compound muscle power workout that got him there.

The film was highly anticipated among fans of Anne of Green Gables. It borrowed characters from the Anne of Green Gables novels by Lucy Maud Montgomery. It served as a sequel to two mini-series produced by CBC Television in the 1980s. It was the most controversial and heavily criticized of the three film adaptations written and produced by Kevin Sullivan. The Continuing Story was criticized principally because unlike the 1985 Anne of Green Gables and its 1987 sequel Anne of Avonlea, the screenplay was not based upon Montgomery's works, but instead used Montgomery's characters in a largely original World War I story by Sullivan and Laurie Pearson. Montgomery had written an Anne novel set in that same period, Rilla of Ingleside, a story focusing on Anne's youngest daughter, and in which Anne was a mother whose three sons were fighting in Europe. The chronology of Sullivan's Anne of Green Gables films is not in synch with the LM Montgomery novels, largely because of the spin-off series Road to Avonlea. Over the course of developing original characters and stories for seven seasons of Road to Avonlea, the time frame of Sullivan's fictional world evolved into a 20-year difference from the Montgomery novels."

And, it's the last confirmed episode of the series, since Hallmark has not yet announced whether When Calls the Heart will return for Season 4. But, don't be too worried — According to Deadline, the show's third season renewal wasn't announced until June of 2015, months after the second season had come to an end. So, even though Season 4 of When Calls the Heart will probably air in early 2017 (based on the previous seasons' premiere schedule), the fate of the show probably won't be decided for a few months. The show's profile may be small, but, since there's so much television out there, there should be room for this sweet show. But, there are plenty of other series that you can catch up on while you wait for the announcement about whether or not there's going to be a When Calls the Heart Season 4. And, fortunately the TV genre of period piece romances has been picking up some steam. Here are some options to tide you over!Hart Of Dixie While Hart of Dixie is set in contemporary America instead of Canada a hundred years ago, it's a similar story — a young woman leaves her high-paced lifestyle to move to a much smaller, slower, little town in the countryside.

Anne Shirley returns to Avonlea after five years of teaching at an orphanage in Nova Scotia while separated from her fiancé, Gilbert Blythe, who was finishing medical school. After catching up with Diana Barry and other old friends, Anne and Diana visit Green Gables, and a horrified Anne realizes that since Marilla's death the owners have treated Green Gables so poorly, that it is coming apart. Later, Anne is reunited with Gilbert on the island. However, instead of settling down immediately, Gilbert asks Anne to move to New York since he has been offered a staff position at a prestigious medical institution. Her reluctant agreement comes with the promise of being published and that they will return to Prince Edward Island to raise their family. In New York, Anne is employed as a junior editor at a small publishing house, where she meets Jack Garrison, a writer and local sensation who becomes interested in Anne. Seeing her potential as a writer, he offers to become the editor for her new manuscript and use his influence to have it published under both their names."

Anyway, as we've pointed out before, animals are one of those subjects particularly vulnerable to laughable misconceptions.

In an essay in the \"\"Globe and Mail,\"\" Butler wrote: Despite her great success, it is known that she suffered from depression, that she was isolated, sad and filled with worry and dread for much of her life. But our family has never spoken publicly about the extent of her illness. What has never been revealed is that L. M. Montgomery took her own life at the age of 67 through a drug overdose. I wasn't told the details of what happened, and I never saw the note she left, but I do know that it asked for forgiveness. Known to her friends as Maud and to readers as L. M. Montgomery, the author of \"\"Anne of Green Gables\"\" had a peripatetic youth, moving from Prince Edward Island to Saskatchewan and back. While caring for her aging grandmother, she wrote the first novel about the orphan Anne Shirley and her adoptive home on Prince Edward Island. That was 1908; this is the centenary of the publication of \"\"Anne of Green Gables. \"\" After her grandmother's death, Montgomery married and moved to Ontario with her minister husband, continuing to pen \"\"Anne of Green Gables\"\" books as well as other works."

"text": "Homework Help > Anne of Green Gables What were the conflicts in the book Anne of Green Gables - external or internal, and how were they resolved?print Printdocument PDFlist Cite Expert Answersaccessteacher | Certified Educator One of the central conflicts which we see in this novel is the conflict of imagination pitted against social expectations. This is an external conflict, but also internal, and we see the forces of imagination most clearly in Anne. The forces of imagination often lead Anne away, distracting her from her household duties. Although Anne is pleased by the power of her daydreams, her powerful imagination brings her into conflict with the expectations of the Avonlea community. Marilia definitely does not share Anne's romantic sensibilities, and thus is exasperated by her continual disasters: cooking a cake that cannot be eaten or nearly drowning herself to act out a poem. This conflict is resolved as the novel progresses as Anne finds the ability to moderate her romanticism and strike a balance between her imagination and social respectability. Another obvious external conflict is the animosity between Anne and Gilbert. The function of this conflict is to spur them both on to greater academic achievements, and it is a testament to the stubborness of Anne's character that she is only able to speak to Gilbert towards the end of the novel.list Citelink Link"

"text": "GO TO OFFICIAL SITESynopsis Now in her twenties, Anne (Megan Follows) returns to Avonlea for the first time since Marilla Cuthbert’s death. Gilbert (Jonathan Crombie) has been offered a position in a hospital in New York, and he persuades Anne to come with him. He arranges a position for her at a large publishing house. However, big city life isn’t what they expected, especially when Anne’s manuscript is stolen by a dashing American writer, Jack Garrison (Cameron Daddo). After many unsuccessful months, Anne and Gilbert move back to Avonlea and into the middle of wartime society. Gilbert feels pressure to join the army as a medical officer, and is soon listed as missing in action. The indomitable Anne then sets off to the battlefields of Europe in search of Gilbert, and helps a young French woman and her son who are in the line of danger along the way. Thus the stage is set for a final installment. The thrilling and affecting story follows the characters from New York, to Europe and the war effort, eventually returning them to the red earth of Prince Edward Island. ““Anne remains …ready to conquer all obstacles the way she conquered Matthew and Marilla’s hearts."

"text": "\"GAF Attic Ventilation Calculator Use this calculator to help determine the proper amount of attic ventilation based on U. S. FHA 1/300 guidelines. Proper attic ventilation consists of a balance between air intake (at your eaves, soffits or fascias) and air exhaust (at or near your roof ridge). The U. S. Federal Housing authority recommends a minimum of at least 1 square foot of attic ventilation (evenly split between intake and exhaust) for every 300 square feet of attic floor space. Always have a balanced ventilation system. In no case should the amount of exhaust ventilation exceed the amount of intake ventilation. NOTE: The 1/300 rule is a general rule and does not apply to all situations. Local building codes, when stricter, take precedence. Always consult a design professional for cathedral ceilings, insulated roof decks, etc. Get Started!Step 1: Enter the length and width of the attic floor -OR- the total square footage of the attic floor.

"text": "by Hobby Farms Editors February 18, 2009Courtesy i Stockphoto/Thinkstock The bank barn, designed for farms in the Midwest, has two levels: the bottom level for livestock and the upper level for storage and threshing. It was a beautiful summer day, drier than most July in the East. I was driving through eastern Pennsylvania on a business trip, enjoying the open highway before me. As I passed through towns along the roadway, I noticed the scenery was becoming more rural. It wasn’t long before great, green expanses lay on either side of the highway. Every few minutes, a magnificent barn would come into view, rising above the landscape and punctuating the sky with its gabled roof and proud silo. The glory of these old barns was breathtaking, leaving me to realize the power of this very American piece of architecture. Throughout American history, farmers have built barns to shelter their livestock and store their harvest. A great number of barn styles can be seen throughout the United States, each suited to the environment where it resides. “The design of a barn, especially if it is very old, is bound with the weather requirements of the area and the particular cultural traditions of the farmers in the region,” says Nancy W. Ambrosiano, co-author of Complete Plans for Building Horse Barns Big & Small (Breakthrough Publishing, 2006). “"

This is our extraordinary inability to understand the realities of the strange, all-pervasive form of government that now rules so much of our lives, thanks to our membership of the European Union. One example was summed up in those headlines that greeted David Cameron’s meeting with the German Chancellor. “ Merkel dampens Dave’s EU dream,” said one; “Merkel dashes hopes for overhaul of the EU,” ran another. Nothing should have been remotely surprising about this encounter. As I have often tried to explain here – ever since Mr Cameron came up with his notion, a year ago, that he could somehow hope to negotiate a new relationship for Britain with the EU, then put it to a referendum in 2017 – every point on his wish list was just pie in the sky. It defied every bedrock principle of how the EU works: that, once powers of government are handed over to Brussels, they cannot be given back; that, under Article 48 of the Lisbon Treaty, he would never get the required majority from 27 other countries allowing him to negotiate; that the tortuous procedures now laid down for such a new treaty could not possibly be completed by 2017. In other words, those millions of words that in the past year have been spoken and written by pretty well every politician and pundit one can think of have been devoted to discussing something that could never possibly have come about in the first place – as Mrs Merkel confirmed on Thursday. Another, very different, example of the same phenomenon has been the public hoo-ha over how and why parts of England, including my own county of Somerset, have lately been subject to abnormal floods. As again I have been trying to explain in recent weeks, these floods were not just an unfortunate act of nature."

"text": "\"Manipulated, Fabricated, and Disappearing Evidenceby John Armstrong In 1996, thirty-three years after the assassination of President Kennedy, one of the FBl's top scientists, Dr. Frederic Whitehurst, disclosed that the FBI crime lab had fabricated evidence in the World Trade Center and Oklahoma City bombings. In April, 1997 an expose in The Wall Street Journal suggested that the FBI's bad habit of cooking evidence to help convict people with fraudulent scientific testimony may have been even more extensive than acknowledged in a report by the Justice Department's inspector general, Michael Bromwich. This is nothing new. Following the assassination of President Kennedy the FBI manipulated, altered, and fabricated evidence relating to HARVEY Oswald and LEE Oswald's backgrounds in order to identify him as the “lone gunman,\"\" and it is fairly easy to show why and how this was done. One of the FBI's first objectives in the assassination of President Kennedy should have been to determine whether or not other members of government were targeted by friends and associates of Oswald or members of the Fair Play for Cuba Committee. After Lincoln's assassination in 1865 government authorities focused their attention on possible co-conspirators who were soon identified, arrested, and brought to justice. After the events of 9/11 senior government officials were moved to safety in case a broader attack against the United States was in progress. According to Vice President Cheney, “I got on the telephone with the President, who was in Florida, and told him not to be at one location where we could both be taken out.” Mr. Cheney kept President Bush flying in the air on 9/11 while he and his wife Lynn left on a helicopter for a secure and still undisclosed location. But after President Kennedy was assassinated in 1963 the FBI did not launch an investigation to determine if other senior government officials were assassination targets."

Credit: meanmachine77 / Shutterstock.com Chinese workers digging a well in 1974 made a startling discovery: thousands of life-size terracotta figures of an army prepared for battle. Now called the Terracotta Army or Terracotta Warriors, the figures are located in three pits near the city of Xi'an in China's Shaanxi province. After the warriors were discovered, the site became a museum and a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987. The pits are situated less than one mile to the northeast of a pyramid-shaped mausoleum constructed for the first emperor of China, Qin Shi Huang (259 B. C. – 210 B. C.). According to UNESCO World Heritage Center, archaeologists suspect that the unexcavated tomb could contain an entire replica of the city of Xi'an, which the warriors guard. The three pits (a fourth pit was unfinished) contain an estimated 8,000 life-size terracotta figures of which about 2,000 have been excavated. The figures were created to serve the emperor in the afterlife and include a mix of chariots, cavalry, armored soldiers and archers. There are high-ranking officers (including nine generals found so far) and one of the pits, No. 3, actually served as a command post for the army and contains an honor guard and ornate chariot for the force's chief commander."

It was common knowledge that the residence had been demolished in the late ‘80s, but no stalker had ever been able to track down its former whereabouts – until now that is. While I had long been aware of the enigma surrounding the locale, I had never actually seen The Karate Kid until two weeks ago. ( Well, I saw it in the theatre when it first came out, but did not remember it at all.) The Grim Cheaper did not learn of this fact until two Saturdays ago and he was so upset when he did that I’m surprised he did not divorce me on the spot. He immediately purchased the flick on i Tunes and forced me to watch it. Now that I have, I am in utter shock that the movie remained off my radar for so long. I absolutely LOVED it. And as soon as the credits started to roll, I became hell-bent on tracking down Mr. Miyagi’s house. I quickly sent out texts to Mike, from Movie Shots LA, Owen, of the When Write Is Wrong blog and Chas, of It’s Filmed There, asking them for any information they had."

"text": "Inigo Jones Posted on 25 May 2011 by A tribute to Influential Australian Christians Inigo Jones (1872–1954) long-range weather forecaster As Australia’s most famous long-range weather forecaster, Inigo Jones’ regular seasonal forecasts were widely published through the rural press. He was also for very many years a Synodsman of the Brisbane Diocese of the Anglican Church, and one who was not afraid to criticise constructively and very emphatically without distinction between the Archbishop and the humbler laymen. Australia’s most famous long-range weather forecaster, Mr. Inigo Owen Jones, died on 14th November at Crohamhurst Observatory, Beerwah, Q., from which he had issued his controversial predictions for many years. His forecasting theory, based on astronomical observations and the repetition of weather cycles, was never proved conclusively (recently a Federal meteorological authority announced after investigations that it had a 50-50 chance of being correct), but nevertheless he had a big following in Australia, particularly amongst primary producers, and his regular seasonal forecasts were widely published through the rural press, including the Pastoral Review. To show their appreciation of the value of his research, some primary industry organisations, together with a contribution from the Queensland Government, set up the Long Range Weather Forecasting Trust in 1942 to help finance the Crohamhurst Observatory and enable its work to be continued. Born at Croydon, England, 81 years ago, Inigo Jones was brought to Australia by his parents in 1874, the family settling on a farm at Crohamhurst, about 60 miles north of Brisbane. He was educated at the Brisbane Grammar School, and later joined the staff of the late Mr. Clement Lindley Wragge, Queensland Government meteorologist. He first began issuing his long-range weather forecasts in 1923, and in 1927, when he received State Government assistance in his work, moved from Crohamhurst to Brisbane. In 1934, however, he returned to Crohamhurst to build an observatory with financial help from the Colonial Sugar Refining Company. Mr. Jones was a Fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society, the Royal Meteorological Society, a member of the Astronomical Society of France, and the American Meteorological Society."

A hum of industry, with their many large saw-mills, furniture, table and many other factories, being pushed to their utmost limit. Their beautiful harbor, the best on Lake Huron or Georgian Bay, affords admirable shipping facilities, and stimulated by the large tract of timber lands on the north, causes a hum of industry along the waterfront and is a general benefit to the town.

"text": "In July of 1852, a 32-year-old novelist named Herman Melville had high hopes for his new novel, Moby-Dick; or, The Whale, despite the book’s mixed reviews and tepid sales. That month he took a steamer to Nantucket for his first visit to the Massachusetts island, home port of his novel’s mythic protagonist, Captain Ahab, and his ship, the Pequod. Like a tourist, Melville met local dignitaries, dined out and took in the sights of the village he had previously only imagined. And on his last day on Nantucket he met the broken-down 60-year-old man who had captained the Essex, the ship that had been attacked and sunk by a sperm whale in an 1820 incident that had inspired Melville’s novel. Captain George Pollard Jr. was just 29 years old when the Essex went down, and he survived and returned to Nantucket to captain a second whaling ship, Two Brothers. But when that ship wrecked on a coral reef two years later, the captain was marked as unlucky at sea—a “Jonah”—and no owner would trust a ship to him again. Pollard lived out his remaining years on land, as the village night watchman. Melville had written about Pollard briefly in Moby-Dick, and only with regard to the whale sinking his ship. During his visit, Melville later wrote, the two merely “exchanged some words.” But Melville knew Pollard’s ordeal at sea did not end with the sinking of the Essex, and he was not about to evoke the horrific memories that the captain surely carried with him. “"

"text": "\"Music Buck Owens, Country Singer, Dies at 76By JEFF LEEDS MARCH 26, 2006LOS ANGELES, March 25 - Buck Owens, the maverick honky-tonk singer who scored a string of country hits that included \"\"Act Naturally\"\" and \"\"Waitin' in Your Welfare Line\"\" before steering country music to television as a co-host of the series \"\"Hee Haw,\"\" died on Saturday at his home in Bakersfield. He was 76. Mr. Owens died in his sleep, hours after finishing a gig at his concert hall and restaurant, Buck Owens' Crystal Palace, said Jim Shaw, a family spokesman who was the keyboardist in Mr. Owens's band, the Buckaroos. Mr. Shaw noted that Mr. Owens had suffered a stroke some time ago. The singer also suffered from other ailments and underwent surgery for cancer in 1993. Mr. Owens pioneered a shift in country music toward the \"\"Bakersfield\"\" sound, a raw, electrified take on traditional country that served as an alternative to the lush, string-heavy sound that dominated Nashville in the 1960's. His influence can be heard in the music of artists from Gram Parsons to Brad Paisley. After releasing a string of No. 1 singles during the 1960's, Mr. Owens agreed to be a co-host of \"\"Hee Haw,\"\" stepping into the persona of a country rube, a role that he would later say destroyed his album sales. During the show's long run, Mr. Owens also devoted himself to his private mini-empire, which included radio stations in Bakersfield and Phoenix, and developed a reputation as a savvy entrepreneur."

The Pilgrim's Progress First edition cover Author John Bunyan Country England Language English Genre Religious allegory Publication date 1678The Pilgrim's Progress from This World, to That Which Is to Come is a 1678 Christian allegory written by John Bunyan. It is regarded as one of the most significant works of religious English literature, [1] [2] [3] [4] has been translated into more than 200 languages, and has never been out of print. [ 5] [6] It has also been cited as the first novel written in English. [ 7]Bunyan began his work while in the Bedfordshire county prison for violations of the Conventicle Act, which prohibited the holding of religious services outside the auspices of the established Church of England. Early Bunyan scholars such as John Brown believed The Pilgrim's Progress was begun in Bunyan's second, shorter imprisonment for six months in 1675, [8] but more recent scholars such as Roger Sharrock believe that it was begun during Bunyan's initial, more lengthy imprisonment from 1660 to 1672 right after he had written his spiritual autobiography Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners. [ 9]The English text comprises 108,260 words and is divided into two parts, each reading as a continuous narrative with no chapter divisions. The first part was completed in 1677 and entered into the Stationers' Register on 22 December 1677. It was licensed and entered in the \"\" Term Catalogue \"\" on 18 February 1678, which is looked upon as the date of first publication. [ 10] After the first edition of the first part in 1678, an expanded edition, with additions written after Bunyan was freed, appeared in 1679."

Closing Date: September 4, 2016 Imperial Theater, 252 W. 45th St. 212-239-6200By CHARLES ISHERWOOD MARCH 23, 2014Les Misérables Ramin Karimloo, center, in his Broadway debut as Jean Valjean, who stole a loaf of bread and lived to regret it, in this revival at the Imperial Theater. Sara Krulwich/The New York Times While I was watching the new revival of “Les Misérables,” it occurred to me that this beloved stage adaptation of Victor Hugo’s novel may have helped pave the way for the pop singing contests that have proliferated across the globe in this century. Much like those televised competitions — “American Idol” and “The Voice” being the national brand leaders — “Les Misérables” presents audiences with a stage full of singers who, one by one, have a chance to step into the spotlight (in this case a very smoke-suffused one) and astonish us with the mighty heft and range of their voices. The through-sung score, by Claude-Michel Schönberg and Alain Boublil (the English lyrics are by Herbert Kretzmer), boasts a passel of throat-searing numbers that build to rousing climaxes. Theatergoers at the reviewed performance cheered as if they were indeed at a sing-off featuring fresh-faced young performers singing pop favorites with all the dazzling flourishes they could muster. As pretty much everyone by now knows, the musical dramatizes the elaborate tale of an unfortunate French guy who stole a loaf of bread and lived to regret it. The production that opened at the Imperial Theater on Sunday night, returning the show to Broadway to capitalize on the popularity of the recent movie version, gives it an update of sorts. The original London staging by John Caird and Trevor Nunn, with its famous turntable set, has been set aside in favor of a new one, directed by Laurence Connor and James Powell, with nothing spinning around except maybe the drunken revelers at the tavern.

Les Paul in 1939 The first magnetic pick-up was invented in 1924 by Lloyd Loar, a Gibson employee. The real first all electric guitars were made in 1931 by the Electric String Company. Designed by, amongst others, the legendary Adolf Rickenbacker, these 'fry pan' guitars were made of aluminium and played across the knees with a slide. The first electric or electrified acoustic guitar was the Gibson EL150 in 1936. The first 1940's solid body guitars electric guitars, similar to those we recognise today, were made by Gibson employees Merle Travis and Paul Bigsby, after the Les Paul 'Log' showed the way. In the 1950s, Leo Fender made the first mass produced electric guitars; the ubiquitous Telecaster being the first. This was rapidly followed by the Gibson Les Paul. George Beauchamp developed the first successful Electric Guitar in 1931 after leaving the National Resophonic Guitar Company of Los Angles, California to start the elect RO-PATin-INstrument Company with Adolph Rickenbacker and Paul Barth. The goal of the Ro-Pat-In Company was to produce a line of electrically amplified instruments using the string driven electro magnetic pick-up (the design most widely used to this day)."

While Bigsby guitars became quite popular throughout the music world in the '50s and '60s, it was his tremolo arm that gained him the most notoriety. Also known as a whammy bar or vibrato tailpiece, these devices allow guitarists to bend the pitch of notes and chords to create various effects. Easy to install and even easier to use, Bigsby vibratos are available for a wide range of guitar models, and this section is loaded with options. Before choosing a Bigsby, you need to be sure that the one you go with matches your guitar model. For example, the B3 Vibrato Kit is perfect for archtop hollowbody guitars like the ES-335. In this kit you'll receive the Bigsby tailpiece, screws, plastic washer, tension spring, alignment string and installation instructions. With the top-selling B3 Vibrato Kit, you can enjoy countless pitch bends and never have to worry about going out of tune."

"text": "News Photo Set: Gibson’s Jimmy Page Signature Guitars Posted on Feb 09, 2010 by Zoo Keeper Back in 2004, we were super excited to get our hands on the brand-new Gibson Custom Shop Jimmy Page Les Paul “Number One”. It was the most highly anticipated guitar that had come through the door in years, and we were lucky enough to have the signed, aged Pilot Run #9 of 25 in the store. Most folks are used to the idea of a signed and aged Jimmy Page guitar these days but the first time around it was almost like having Jimmy himself walk through the door, whistling “The Rover”. We had it on display in the store for a good long while, and we also put up a page on the website with absurdly large pictures of every angle of #9. Now that there have been a few more Jimmy Page replica/tribute guitars that have come through The Zoo, we thought we would revisit the photos we shot of these popular guitars, and compile them all in one post for all you Jimmy Page fans. Mega picture gallery after the jump. The Original: Jimmy Page Signed Aged Gibson Les Paul #9 of 25Gibson had already made some Jimmy Page Signature Les Pauls in the mid-90s that were very interesting guitars in their own right, but this right here was Gibson’s first big swing at a guitar that replicated one of Jimmy’s actual vintage instruments – his “Number One” ’59 Les Paul Standard Sunburst. As with subsequent Page tribute guitars that followed, Gibson sought to replicate every modification, and every ding and scratch that existed on the original Number One. Jimmy’s guitar had a shaved down neck – a very thin and fast elliptical shape, thinnest in the middle of the length of the neck, very unusual – and Gibson replicated it here. The pickups were a special wind, exclusive to the Page Les Paul."

Please help to improve this article by introducing more precise citations. ( April 2009) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)Bigsby B50 Tremolo Hardware The Bigsby vibrato tailpiece (or Bigsby for short) is a type of mechanical vibrato device for electric guitar designed by Paul A. Bigsby. The device allows musicians to bend the pitch of notes or entire chords with their pick hand for various effects. The Bigsby was the first successful design of what is now called a whammy bar, vibrato bar, or tremolo arm, the latter a misnomer since vibrato is the technically correct term for the musical effect it produces ( tremolo is a rapid fluctuation of the volume of a note, while vibrato is a fluctuation in pitch ). The origin of this nonstandard usage of the term by electric guitarists is attributed to Leo Fender, who also used the term \"\"tremolo\"\" to refer to what is really a vibrato effect (see vibrato unit ). Design [ edit]The Bigsby vibrato unit is installed on the top of the guitar and works in conjunction with a roller bridge. The arm of the Bigsby is spring-loaded and attached to a pivoting metal bar, around which the strings of the guitar are installed. In the neutral or unused position, the pressure of the spring counterbalances the pull of the strings, resulting in constant pitch when the strings are played. When the arm of the Bigsby is pushed down towards the top of the guitar, the bridge rocks forward causing the strings to loosen, lowering their pitch."

The graceful lines of the Fender Strat have landed it in museums for industrial design and modern art, but there is also a functional side to those curves and contours, which help make the Stratocaster an exceptionally well balanced and comfortable instrument to play. The legendary Fender Stratocaster is one of the most popular (and most copied) electric guitar models in history. It is an icon of modern design, engineered to be reliable, affordable, versatile, eminently playable and, most of all, fantastic sounding. So successful was the initial design of the instrument that it has been in continuous production since it was first introduced over sixty years ago, along with an ever-evolving array of variations. The Fender Strat was first introduced in 1954, just a few years after Fender debuted the Telecaster, which is widely considered to be the first commercially successful solidbody electric guitar. While the Tele was a solid and reliable workhorse, the Strat was a sleek and sexy, futuristic-looking instrument, with offset horns for better balance and enhanced playability, Fender's \"\"Comfort Contour Body\"\" that was shaped to better conform with the player's anatomy, and a newly-designed whammy/vibrato system that offered a compelling alternative to the more massive Bigsby rigs that were gaining popularity at the time. Although it was initially designed with a great deal of input from country and swing guitarists, such was its versatility that the Strat soon caught on with rockers like Buddy Holly and English instrumental band The Shadows, as well as blues, surf, and jazz players of all stripes. Today, the Fender Stratocaster is identified as the guitar of choice for such giants as Jimi Hendrix, David Gilmour, Stevie Ray Vaughn and Eric Clapton, as well as legendary pickers like Robin Trower, Rory Gallagher and Jeff Beck, to name just a few. While there have been many variations on the Stratocaster over the years, the same basic design, with contoured body, bolt-on 25.5\"\" scale length neck, three single-coil pickups and Fender vibrato system, has continuously remained at the heart of the Strat legacy."

Instead of eliminating Glenn ( Steven Yeun) and Abraham ( Michael Cudlitz ), like Negan ( Jeffrey Dean Morgan) did on The Walking Dead ‘s Season 7 premiere, Dave Chappelle — who is dressed as “Negan” with a black leather jacket, red scarf and a baseball bat — tortured characters from Comedy Central’s late Chappelle’s Show in the SNL spoof on Nov. 12.

Through the eyes of Tom, the viewer gets a glance into the life of his family in the pre-war depression era; his mother, a Southern belle desperately clinging to the past; his sister, a woman too fragile to function in society; and himself, a struggling, young poet working at a warehouse to pay the bills. Williams has managed to create a momentous play using a combination of different elements, including symbolism. Three noteworthy examples of symbolism are the fire escape, a sense of hope and an escape both to the outside world and from it; the glass menagerie itself, a symbol for Laura’s fragility and uniqueness; and rainbows, symbols of unrealized hopes and aspirations. Through the use of these symbols, a greater understanding of the humanistic theme that unfulfilled hopes and desires are an unwanted, but important aspect of the real world is achieved, and The Glass Menagerie is crafted into a meaningful classic drama. Symbols are a major part of this play that Tom, who is a poet, admits he has a weakness for. One of the first to be presented in the story is the fire escape that ... ... middle of paper ... ...

It’s very common in rounded grains and aggregates. The name Spinel is from the Latin word “spina” which means spines. This refers to the stone’s needle-like formations. It’s a magnesium aluminium oxide mineral that’s usually red, green, blue, brown, violet, orange, and black in color. There are also Spinel stones that are colorless. Spinel can usually be found in Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Afghanistan, Vietnam, Brazil, Pakistan, Russia, Turkey, Italy, Sweden, and Madagascar. Why Would You Use Spinel? Spinel is a stone of revitalization, and it can re-energize all aspects of yourself. This makes it an excellent stone for workaholics."

Jasper - Andrew Alden photoby Andrew Alden Updated October 08, 2017When certain minerals compress under specific conditions, most often below the surface of the earth, a process occurs which forms a new compound known as a gemstone. Gemstones can be made of one or more minerals, and as a result some minerals refer to more than one gemstone name. In order to better understand the interaction between the two, reference the two charts below — the first details each gemstone and the minerals that combined to form it and the second lists each mineral and the gemstones it can produce. For instance, Quartz can form Amethyst, Ametrine, Citrine, and Morion (and a few more) gemstones depending on which other minerals and elements compress together and at what depth in the earth's crust and temperature the compression occurs at. How Gemstones are Formed Most gemstones are formed in either the crust or the very top layer of the earth's mantle in the molten magma bubbling in the depths of the world, but only peridot and diamonds are formed deep in the mantle. All gems, however, are mined in the crust where they can cool to solidify in the crust, which is made up of igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rock. Like the minerals that make up gemstones, some are associated with one kind of rock in particular while others have several types of rock that go into the creation of that stone. Igneous gemstones are formed when magma solidifies in the crust and crystallizes to form minerals then an increase in pressure starts a series of chemical exchanges which eventually cause the mineral to compress into a gemstone. Igneous rock gemstones include amethyst, citrine, ametrine, emeralds, morganite, and aquamarine as well as garnet, moonstone, apatite, and even diamond and zircon."

"text": "\"Metamorphic Rocks Introduction The process of metamorphism is one that changes or alters either the mineralogy or the texture, but typically both, of some pre-existing rock. Metamorphic rocks are consequently rocks that have undergone a change or \"\"metamorphosis\"\" from a previous state as a sedimentary, igneous or even another metamorphic rock. Owing to the fact that shales are the most abundant sedimentary rock (60% of all sediments), metamorphosed shales are abundant. The changes that take place are produced by chemical reactions between the minerals in the rock; it is a process that takes place entirely within the solid state (i.e., no melting occurs, as that would be an igneous process). The chemical reactions are largely driven by changes in temperature and pressure, and consequently as rocks become deeply buried, for example in a subduction zone, they are progressively subjected to higher pressures and temperatures resulting in metamorphism. There are two primary types of metamorphism: Regional Metamorphism occurs on a large scale, typically involving hundreds of square kilometers of surface area. It is the most widespread of the metamorphic types and is typical of the major fold-mountain belts such as the Appalachians, Himalayas, Alps or Rocky Mountains. The metamorphism results from deep burial typically associated with the crustal thickening that results from thrust faulting and folding associated with mountain building processes. As such it is a process that is usually associated with convergent plate tectonic boundaries. In this type of environment, folding and differential stress are common; consequently foliation is a common feature of regionally metamorphosed rocks."

"text": "\"Gibbs' Phase Rule: Where it all Begins Author Profile David Mogk, Montana State University Introduction Minerals are the monitors of the physical and chemical conditions under which they formed. The occurrences of minerals, their parageneses (stable associations), types of reactions, and compositional variation (e.g. zoned minerals) all provide important information about geologic history and processes. Of particular importance to geologists are: Estimates of pressure and temperature (geothermobarometry)Estimates of other physico-chemical conditions such as acidity (p H) and oxidation state (e H)Partial pressures of gases (e.g. fugacities of H 2 O, CO 2 , etc. ) Partitioning of major and trace elements between phases (e.g. minerals, melts and/or fluids) to characterize and quantify petrogenetic processes; and Use of minerals in geochronology and thermochronology Gibbs' Phase Rule provides the theoretical foundation, based inthermodynamics, for characterizing the chemical state of a (geologic) system, and predicting the equilibrium relations of the phases (minerals, melts, liquids, vapors) present as a function of physical conditions such as pressure and temperature. Gibbs' Phase Rule also allows us to constructphase diagramsto represent and interpret phase equilibria in heterogeneous geologic systems. In the simplest understanding of phase diagrams, stable phase (mineral) assemblages are represented as \"\"fields\"\" (see colored areas on the figure to the right) in \"\"P-T space\"\", and the boundaries between stable phase assemblages are defined by lines (or curves) that represent reactions between the phase assemblages. The reaction curves actually represent the condition (or the locus of points in P-T space) whereΔGrxn=0; for more information on this point see Gibbs Free Energy. A solid understanding of Gibbs' Phase Rule is required to successfully master the applications of heterogeneous phase equilibria presented in this module. Definitions Gibbs Phase Rule is expressed by the simple formulation: P + F = C + 2, where P is the number of phases in the system A phase is any physically separable material in the system. Every unique mineral is a phase (including polymorphs); igneous melts, liquids (aqueous solutions), and vapor are also considered unique phases."

"text": "Gemstone Hardness The Mohs scale of mineral hardness was created by German mineralogist, Friedrich Mohs, in 1822 to measure the relative hardness or scratch resistance of various minerals. He based it on ten readily available minerals. As it is an ordinal scale, two minerals must be compared to decide which is harder. The scale is neither linear nor logarithmic. For example, corundum is twice as hard as topaz, but diamond is almost four times as hard as corundum. Diamond - The Hardest Gemstone The hardness of a material is measured against the scale by finding the hardest material that the given material can scratch, or the softest material that can scratch the given material. Mohs' original scale of mineral hardness is as follows: Hardness Material Absolute Hardness1 Talc (Mg3Si4O10 (OH)2) 12 Gypsum (Ca SO4·2H2O) 33 Calcite (Ca CO3) 94 Fluorite (Ca F2) 215 Apatite (Ca5 (PO4)3 (OH-,Cl-,F-)) 486 Orthoclase (KAl Si3O8) 727 Quartz (Si O2) 1008 Topaz (Al2Si O4 (OH-,F-)2) 2009 Corundum (Al2O3) 40010 Diamond (C) 1500To give some examples from everyday life, a fingernail has a hardness of 2; a copper penny, about 3; a knife blade, 5; window glass, 5.5; and a steel file, 6.5.

Kyanite in metamorphic rocks generally indicates pressures higher than four kilobars. Although potentially stable at lower pressure and low temperature, the activity of water is usually high enough under such conditions that it is replaced by hydrous aluminosilicates such as muscovite, pyrophyllite, or kaolinite. Kyanite is also known as disthene, rhaeticite and cyanite. Kyanite is a member of the aluminosilicate series, which also includes the polymorph andalusite and the polymorph sillimanite. Kyanite is strongly anisotropic, in that its hardness varies depending on its crystallographic direction. In kyanite, this anisotropism can be considered an identifying characteristic. At temperatures above 1100 °C kyanite decomposes into mullite and vitreous silica via the following reaction: 3 (Al 2 O 3 ·Si O 2) → 3Al 2 O 3 ·2Si O 2 + Si O 2. This transformation results in an expansion. ["

The protolith is subjected to heat (greater than 150 degrees Celsius) and extreme pressure causing profound physical and/or chemical change. The protolith may be sedimentary rock, igneous rock or another older metamorphic rock. Metamorphic rocks make up a large part of the Earth's crust and are classified by texture and by chemical and mineral assemblage (metamorphic facies). They are formed deep beneath the Earth's surface by great stresses from rocks above and high pressures and temperatures. They are also formed by the intrusion of molten rock, called magma, into solid rock and form particularly at the place of contact between the magma and solid rock where the temperatures are high. The study of metamorphic rocks (now exposed at the Earth's surface following erosion and uplift) provides us with very valuable information about the temperatures and pressures that occur at great depths within the Earth's crust. Some examples of metamorphic rocks are gneiss, slate, marble, and schist."

Mineral Subclasses- some classes can be subdivided based on chemical or structural grounds--examples are the 1. Native Element Class which is divided into minerals with metallic bonding ( metals ), those with mostly covalent bonding ( nonmetals ), and those with a mixture ( semimetals ); and the 2. the S ilicate Class, with 6 subclasses ( neso -, soro -, cyclo -, phylo -, tecto -silicates) based on the linkage of the silica tetrahedra -- details concerning these subclasses will betreated later under a discussion of the non silicates and silicates C. Mineral Groups- classes or subclasses can be further divided based on atomic structure and similar chem - istry --examples are isomorphic ( isostructural) groups, polymorphic groups and groups based on a general empirical formula with consistent properties1. isomorphic group is a group of minerals with the same atomic structure but different chemical formulas--atoms of different elements representing equivalents in minerals of this group have the same C. N.--Fe CO 3 (siderite) and Ca CO 3 (calcite) belong to the same isomorphic group in the carbonate class because in both cases there are 6 O around each Fe and Ca respectively, 3 O around each C, and one C and 2 Fe or Ca around each O-- often the same atomic structure in different minerals reflectssimilar chemical and physical properties and similar crystallography - some examples of isomorphic ( isostructural ) groups are: -- in the oxide class - hematite group, spinel group, rutile group -- in the carbonate class- calcite group, aragonite group -- in the sulfate class- barite group -- in the silicate class- (and nesosilcate subclass)--garnet group (and inosilicate -pyroxenes subclass)--sodium pyroxene group (and inosilcate -amphibole subclass)--sodium amphibole group - isomorphism can exist with minerals which are not in the same mineral class--since they are not in the same mineral class they cannot be in the same isomorphic group --Na NO 3 ( nitratite) is isomorphic or isostructural with the minerals in the calcite group of the carbonate class including siderite and calcite 2. polymorphic group is a mineral group belonging to the same mineral class, all having the same chemical formula but different atomic structures--these usually form or are stable under different temperatures or pressures whereby the same cation forms a different C. N. with the same anion--or the same CN exists but there is a different bond angle between polyhedra --the difference in atomic structures result in polymorphs often forming in different crystal systems - some examples of polymorphs are: a. calcite and aragonite --Ca CO 3 ---calcite is hexagonal and aragonite, orthorhombic b. pyrite and marcasite --Fe S 2 ---pyrite forms at a high temperature and is isometric while marcasite forms at a low temperature and is orthorhombic c. quartz, tridymite, cristobalite , stishovite and coesite --Si O 2 --- quartz forms at a low temperature and forms in the hexagonal system, cristobalite forms at a high temperature and forms in the tetragonal system, while tridymite is an intermediate temperature form which is orthorhombic--- coesite is stable at high pressures and is associated with meteor impact and is a monoclinic mineral--- stishovite is tet - ragonal and is thought to be associated with rocks from Mars d. kyanite and andalusite --Al 2 Si O 5 --- kyanite is triclinic and is formed at a high temperature and andalusite is orthorhombic and is the low temperature form e. microcline, orthoclase, sanidine --KAl Si 3 O 8 --- microcline , a triclinic mineral is the low temperature variety, sanidine, a monoclinic mineral is the high temper- ature variety and orthoclase is a monoclinic mineral which forms at an inter- temperature kinds of polymorphism: -two types of polymorphism are recognized according 1. to whether a change from one polymorph to another is reversible and takes place at a definite temperature and pressure, or 2. is irreversible and can change in only one direction at a certain temperature 1. enantiotropy -a reversible change as: quartz >< tridymite or graphite >< diamond 2. monotropy -a one way change between polymorphs as: marcasite > pyrite marcasite to pyrite but not vice versa (irreversible) - also, polymorphs can also be categorized as to the nature of their change in respect tothe degree of reconstitution of the atomic structure 1."

It contains minor to accessory biotite, schorl, muscovite, sekaninaite, andalusite, diaspore, apatite and several rare accessory minerals. Black, tabular crystals of ferberite-\"\"wolframoixiolite\"\" occur almost exclusively in an andalusite-diaspore aggregate with sequential accumulations of late pyrophyllite, kaolinite, and muscovite-illite. Complex zoning of the individual crystals of ferberite\"\"wolframoixiolite\"\" shows primary, coarse oscillatory zoning consisting of narrow zones of ferberite (5.01–6.00 apfu W) and dominant niobian ferberite I (5.00–3.01 apfu W) to \"\"wolframoixiolite\"\" (< 3.00 apfu W), the latter two phases with very fine oscillatory internal zoning. The primary phases were locally replaced by a fine-grained mixture of ferberite to niobian ferberite II > tungstenian-titanian ferrocolumbite » niobian and tungstenian rutile > Sc PO4 phase > scheelite. Primary and secondary phases are characterized by large variation in W/ (W+Nb+Ta) and calculated Fe2+/ (Fe2++Fe3+) but low and almost constant Mn/ (Mn+Fetot) and Ta/ (Ta+Nb). The contents of P, U, Ti, Zr, Si, Sc, Al and Ca vary from negligible in ferberite to minor in \"\"wolframoixiolite\"\" and its U-rich variety: UO2 2.71 (19.82 U-rich variety), P2O5 0.30, Ti O2 4.81, Zr O2 2.84, Si O2 0.93, Sc2O3 4.36, Al2O3 0.87, Ca O 1.02 (all in wt.%). The combined exchange vector: (R3+)8 (R4+)6 (R5+)16 (R2+)–13 (R6+)–17, where R2+ = Fe2+ > Mn, Ca; R3+ = Fe3+ > Sc, Al; R4+ = Ti > Zr, Si, U; R5+ = Nb > Ta, P; R6+ = W, seems to be the best expression of the actual substitution mechanism from ferberite to \"\"wolframoixiolite\"\" with the theoretical end composition (R2+ 1.1R3+ 3.4R4+ 1.9R5+ 5.6)∑ 12O24."

Crystals of serandite, natrolite, analcime, and aegirine: Mont Saint-Hilaire, La Vallée-du-Richelieu RCM, Montérégie, Québec, Canada A mineral is a naturally occurring chemical compound, [1] usually of crystalline form and not produced by life processes. A mineral has one specific chemical composition, whereas a rock can be an aggregate of different minerals or mineraloids. The study of minerals is called mineralogy. As of March 2018, there are more than 5,500 known mineral species; [2] 5,312 of these have been approved by the International Mineralogical Association (IMA). [ 3]Minerals are distinguished by various chemical and physical properties. Differences in chemical composition and crystal structure distinguish the various species, which were determined by the mineral's geological environment when formed. Changes in the temperature, pressure, or bulk composition of a rock mass cause changes in its minerals. Within a mineral species there may be variation in physical properties or minor amounts of impurities that are recognized by mineralogists or wider society as a mineral variety, [4] for example amethyst, a purple variety of the mineral species quartz. Minerals can be described by their various physical properties, which are related to their chemical structure and composition."

"text": "Metamorphism: grade, zones, index minerals, and whisky Posted on 28 September, 2011 by Metageologist This post is second in a series of posts about metamorphism. Metamorphic grade, zones and index minerals Science is based on a solid understanding of underlying physical principles. Although I have chickened-out of the detail, everything I mention in the previous post is based on a solid understanding of chemistry and physics. The knowledge we have today of the chemistry of rock-forming minerals wasn’t available to earliest scientists studying metamorphic rocks. Their study of Geology was driven by fieldwork and observation. Some useful metamorphic concepts came from the study of rocks in the Highlands of Scotland in the early Twentieth Century. George Barrow identified patterns in the minerals found in these rocks, based on the appearance of characteristic index minerals (chlorite, biotite, garnet, staurolite, kyanite, sillimanite). His insight was that these index minerals were distributed in distinctive ways. The rocks of the Scottish Highlands are mostly metamorphosed sediments. What were sandstones, muddy sandstones and mudstones are now (meta)-quartzites, schists, slates and so on."

Hornfels rocks were referred to by miners in northern England as whetstones. [ 1] [2]Most hornfels are fine-grained, and while the original rocks (such as sandstone, shale, slate, limestone and diabase) may have been more or less fissile owing to the presence of bedding or cleavage planes, this structure is effaced or rendered inoperative in the hornfels.

"text": "Petrified Wood: Meanings, Properties and Powersby Diana Houston Petrified Wood Properties Petrified Wood comes from the Greek root petro, which means rock or stone, with literal meaning ‘wood turned into stone’. It’s the name given to the fossilized remains of terrestrial vegetation. Petrified Wood is the result of a tree turning into stone through the process of permineralization. All the organic materials of the tree have been replaced with silicate minerals, usually a quartz, while maintaining the wood’s original structure. Unlike other kinds of fossils that are compressions or impressions, Petrified Wood is a three-dimensional representation of the original organic material. The petrifaction process happens underground, when wood starts to get covered by sediments. It’s preserved at first due to lack of oxygen. Mineral-rich water that’s flowing through the sediments deposits minerals in the tree’s cells. As the tree’s lignin and cellulose start to decay, a stone mold also begins to form!Wood takes approximately a hundred years to petrify. Organic material needs to become petrified first before it completely decomposes."

The ancient Romans wore opal as a symbol of hope and purity and believed it could cure illness. In ancient India, opal was referred to as the Goddess of the Rainbow, turned to stone. Ancient Arab cultures believed opal had fallen from the sky and that the play of colour was trapped lightning. According to Arab lore, opal could make the wearer invisible.

It can also exhibit a play of color when the stone is turned under a light source. It’s given this name not because of a phenomenon, but because of its background colors. These fire colors in Fire Opal are a uniform background color caused by the presence of iron in the Opal. It’s the beautiful background color that gives the stone definition. The value of Fire Opals can be based on the uniformity and desirability of their colors, with yellow being the low end and red being the high end. Also, transparent stones are preferred over the translucent kinds. A Fire Opal is cut in different ways. Some are cut as cabochons, while some as faceted stones. There’s no rule for cutting Fire Opals, though."

Because of its amorphous character, it is classed as a mineraloid, unlike crystalline forms of silica, which are classed as minerals. It is deposited at a relatively low temperature and may occur in the fissures of almost any kind of rock, being most commonly found with limonite, sandstone, rhyolite, marl, and basalt.

From its discovery in the 1880s until now, this beautiful gemstone has fascinated the world with its play of color and light. Most people when they think of opal they think of white or milky opal, now often called light opal. This opal has its colors in a light, often white, body tone. White opal is the opal usually found outside Australia. However, other forms of opal - black, boulder and crystal - occur in Australia, and are usually more sought after, as their internal fire and dance of light is better seen. All three have their own beauty, and like all opal, preference is in the eye of the beholder. Unlike other gems, whose value can be quantified by weight, clarity, flawlessness and other objective parameters, opal is a subjective gemstone, whose beauty and value doesn't fit a formula. Like art, what's important in judging an opal is how much you like it, not what someone else deems it to be. However, again like art, the more people that think the same, and the rarer the stone that has this high appeal, the more expensive it will be. ("

It is considered to be the most stable kind of opal found in Africa so far. Opal has previously been found in other regions of Ethiopia, but it has been known to be unstable or prone to cracking or crazing, developing a network of fine cracks on the surface. The Welo opal, besides being extremely stable, has a very bright fiery color, displaying the full spectrum of colors with a lot of red. Welo opals display a wide variety of base colors and fire patterns. Welo opals are \"\"hydrophane,\"\" which means that they will absorb water. When these opals are soaked in water, they \"\"lose\"\" their fire; however, once the opal is dry - which can take anywhere from a few hours to a few weeks - the colors return to their original state. Attempts to speed drying artificially, such as heat lamps, should be avoided as heat can cause opals to crack. Welo opals are rapidly gaining popularity and value. Anyone who appreciates opals is sure to love the Welo opal."

A bit softer than quartz, and not quite as dense, Opal is hydrated silica and an amorphous mineral. In its’ natural form, Opal consists of closely packed aggregate spheres of silica as silica oxide, and water in varying amounts up to 15%. These spheres are arranged in a series of layers allowing light to pass through, defracting at specific points, creating the play of colors that attracts us to Opals. The larger the spheres, the more vibrant the colors produced. Referred to as “as common opals”, are those which lack the colored sparkle of the “precious opals“, though both are used in jewelry.

For other uses, see Opals (disambiguation). Opal is a hydrated amorphous form of silica (Si O 2 · n H 2 O); its water content may range from 3 to 21% by weight, but is usually between 6 and 10%. Because of its amorphous character, it is classed as a mineraloid, unlike crystalline forms of silica, which are classed as minerals. It is deposited at a relatively low temperature and may occur in the fissures of almost any kind of rock, being most commonly found with limonite, sandstone, rhyolite, marl, and basalt. Opal is the national gemstone of Australia. The internal structure of precious opal makes it diffract light. Depending on the conditions in which it formed, it can take on many colors."

"text": "Easy What Is White Opal and Where Does It Come From White Opal is also known as milky Opal and it has a pale white appearance with bright flashes of Opal colour. On the body tone and brightness chart the body color of white Opal is N8 or N9. White Opal is capable of displaying any combination of spectral colors such as red, blue, purple and greens. The major difference between this type of Opal and the Black Opa l is that white Opal tends to have a subdued play of color since the body color of the stone is light. In black Opal because the body is very dark the play of color is much brighter. In terms of production the white Opal is by far the most plentiful. In Australia the majority of the opal produced comes from South Australia. While New South Wales produces the precious black Opal it only accounts for a small percentage of the total Opal mined. White Opal Locations The majority of white Opal comes from the state of South Australia. The major fields include Coober Pedy, Mintabie and Andmooka."

Opal is the national gemstone of Australia. Australian opal has often been cited as accounting for 95-97% of the world’s supply of precious opal, with the state of South Australia accounting for 80% of the world’s supply. Recent data suggests that the world supply of precious opal may have changed. In 2012, Ethiopian opal production was estimated to be 14,000 kg (31,000 lb) by the United States Geological Survey. USGS data from the same period (2012), reveals that Australian opal production to be $41 million. Because of the units of measurement, it is not possible to directly compare Australian and Ethiopian opal production, but these data and others suggest that the traditional percentages given for Australian opal production may be overstated. Yet, the validity of data in the USGS report appears to conflict with that of Laurs and others and Mesfin, who estimated the 2012 Ethiopian opal output (from Wegal Tena) to be only 750 kg (1,650 lb)."

Very highly prized Mexican fire opals are excavated in open-cast mines in Queretaro, Mexico. However, the stone can also be found in Guatemala, Honduras, the United States, and Australia, where more precious varieties are known to be found. Germany has been importing most of Mexico’s best fire opals for many decades now. Learn all about your birth symbols Your Birthday:14K Gold Fire Opal Ringsstarting at only $179Many people mistakenly think that a fire opal is simply an opal with a lot of red showing in its beautiful, iridescent display of colors. This is an understandable mistake as the word “fire” usually refers to this beautiful iridescent display of colors opals possess, not the opal’s actual body color. A Mexican fire opal is actually very different than the opal we are used to seeing. While an opal is opaque and white, displaying an iridescent play of colors in every color of the rainbow, the Mexican fire opal is transparent to translucent, with a uniform red, orange, yellow, or brownish body color. Fire opals can come either with or without a play of color or fire. Iron content is what gives Mexican fire opals their orange color."

Opal mining is a life of stamina and hard physical work, skill and luck, hope and disappointment…and – every now and again – the reward of discovering one of the earth’s most rare and enchanting treasures as light touches it for the first time in eternity. The technology and technological history of opal mining is fascinating. Every Australian opal field has produced innovations in mining machinery and methods, adapted to its particular geological, technological and social setting. In time, we will post information and photographs from opal mining areas around Australia…but let’s start with Lightning Ridge. History Opal was first discovered at Lightning Ridge in the 1880s, and the first recorded mine shaft was sunk in 1901, probably by boundary rider Jack Murray. Miners and windlass, pre-1920. Photo courtesy of Lightning Ridge Historical Society. For years, mines were dug by hand using picks and shovels. It was incredibly hard work, in an isolated place distinguished by extreme heat, lack of water, and scant facilities."

"text": "\"Types of Opal History & Formation Valuing Opal Caring for Opals Types of Opal Black and Semi Black Opal Black Opal is solid opal distinguished by the black or very dark body colour of the stone and is highly sought after because of its beauty and rarity. Semi Black opal has a background which ranges from smoky grey to nearly black. The dark backgound accentuates the play of colour in the opal and the brighter and sharper the colours, the more valuable the opal. Most Black Opal comes from Lightning Ridge in New South Wales or Mintabie with small amount coming from the fields around Coober Pedy. See our Black Opal page for more detail. White Opal White or light opal is solid opal distinguished by a white or light background which is opaque. The play of colour is generally more subdued than black opal however, quality white opal can be brilliant and display many colours.

Australia produces 97% of the worlds opal, the remainder is found in such countries as Brazil, Mexico, Peru and the United States of America. There are two main types of opal, common and precious: Common Opal, doesn't have the play of internal colours that precious opal does, it is translucent with a palette of colours including honey, orange, blue, green and red. Common opal also appears with dendritic inclusions. These opals include opal fossil wood, which is caused by the replacement of the organic material in wood with opal and Hyalite a colourless glass-clear opal sometimes called Muller's Glass or Water Opal, Jelly Opal and Chrysopal Precious Opal, shows a variety of flashing colours called fire or opalescence on backgrounds of white, black, dark brown or colourless. The fire appears as flecks or sparkles of vivid colours floating on top of the background, often with a blue of purplish overall tone. Within the precious opal group, there is a range of varieties which is determined by the various colour combinations. Opal is a delicate stone with a fine vibration. It enhances cosmic consciousness and ind uces psychic and mystical visions."

"text": "\"Argentina Introduction Geography People Government Economy Communications Transportation Military Transnational Issues Introduction Back To Top Background: In 1816, the United Provinces of the Rio Plata declared their independence from Spain. After Bolivia, Paraguay, and Uruguay went their separate ways, the area that remained became Argentina. The country's population and culture were heavily shaped by immigrants from throughout Europe, but most particularly Italy and Spain, which provided the largest percentage of newcomers from 1860 to 1930. Up until about the mid-20th century, much of Argentina's history was dominated by periods of internal political conflict between Federalists and Unitarians and between civilian and military factions. After World War II, an era of Peronist populism and direct and indirect military interference in subsequent governments was followed by a military junta that took power in 1976. Democracy returned in 1983 after a failed bid to seize the Falkland (Malvinas) Islands by force, and has persisted despite numerous challenges, the most formidable of which was a severe economic crisis in 2001-02 that led to violent public protests and the resignation of several interim presidents.

In what way? The Inca, or ruler, of the empire was responsible for sustaining his political and social links throughout his extensive territory. This included storing and providing food where and when it was needed. Inca Road System - El Camino de los Incas The Inca Empire was tied together by a long road or trail, \"\"El Camino de las Incas\"\" or the Inca Road. It stretched from Northern Argentina, the whole length of Peru, and into Northern Ecuador. From that central road, branches went out to various sectors of the Empire. Along that trail and in the off-shoots that led to major Inca citadels, some of the most common stone buildings remaining from that culture are the Inca food storage buildings.

Chris Moss picks the highlights among its peaks, glaciers and lakes Chris Moss Sat 13 Dec 2014 01.59 EST12.56 EST2,520 17The Torres del Paine mountains in Patagonia, southern Chile. Photograph: Alamy F or my first forays into Patagonia, in the 1990s, I left behind my guidebooks and travelogues. Travelling light, I was blown away by big, jagged mountaintop glaciers and – more literally – the fierce westerlies that gusted summer long. Between the gawping and the roast lamb dinners, I struggled to make sense of German settlements, Tehuelche place names, Anglophile ranch-owners and ruddy Welsh faces on the coast; crossing the empty steppe, I wondered why any of these would come to such an arid, godforsaken place to make a home. Later on, Bruce Chatwin’s In Patagonia helped me to make sense of all this. Chatwin visited the region 40 years ago this month to write what would become In Patagonia, published in 1977 to great acclaim. Drawing on a wide range of sources, from Shakespeare’s The Tempest to the accounts of the 1921-2 farm workers’ uprising (collected by Argentine author Osvaldo Bayer), the book fills the empty spaces of southern South America with people, myths and magical happenings. In Patagonia is as much a homage to storytelling as it is to the place itself. Patagonia covers some 400,000 square miles – roughly one and a half times the size of the UK – and visitors need to plan ahead."

Chile ( / ˈ tʃ ɪ l i / [8]; Spanish: [ˈtʃile] ), officially the Republic of Chile ( Spanish: República de Chile ( help · info) ), is a South American country occupying a long, narrow strip of land between the Andes to the east and the Pacific Ocean to the west. It borders Peru to the north, Bolivia to the northeast, Argentina to the east, and the Drake Passage in the far south. Chilean territory includes the Pacific islands of Juan Fernández, Salas y Gómez, Desventuradas, and Easter Island in Oceania. Chile also claims about 1,250,000 square kilometres (480,000 sq mi) of Antarctica, although all claims are suspended under the Antarctic Treaty. The arid Atacama Desert in northern Chile contains great mineral wealth, principally copper. The relatively small central area dominates in terms of population and agricultural resources, and is the cultural and political center from which Chile expanded in the late 19th century when it incorporated its northern and southern regions. Southern Chile is rich in forests and grazing lands, and features a string of volcanoes and lakes."

If you are looking for alternative livestock that involves no slaughter, utilises small or uneconomic pasture acreage, is hardy, requires minimal daily attention and yet provides a valuable and luxurious fibre crop then the alpaca will surprise and delight. History Alpaca Breeds Cost of Ownership Alpaca Future The Alpaca along with the Llama, Guanaco and Vicuna are all members of the South American Camelid family, found mainly in the South American countries of Peru, Chile and Bolivia. Both the Guanaco and Vicuna remain undomesticated to this day. The domesticated Llama was bred from the Guanaco and the domesticated Alpaca from the Vicuna. Domestication of the alpaca began some five thousand years ago and with the llama it became an important part of the economy of the Andean people providing clothing, food and transport, with the dried dung used as fuel. The Inca empire was remarkably successful in further refining the alpaca through rigidly controlled breeding programmes and, according to archaeologists, the Inca alpaca herds had a fibre quality that is still not consistently achieved to this day. The invasion by the Spanish in the 16th century saw the introduction of European livestock, mainly Merino sheep, and the once highly organised alpaca herds were decimated and those remaining pushed to the higher elevations on the altiplano of the Andes (4000-5000m). Here the alpaca was forced to adapt to the sparse vegetation, the extremes of temperature and was free to breed without human selection. The following years of Agrarian Land Reform followed by the era of large herds run by the traditional pastoralists and then the terrorism in the 1980’s, made the organisation of breeding stations difficult."

The limited edition socks are made of vicuna wool, which given the price must be pretty special. The vicuna was reportedly named “the fibre of the gods” by the Incas and is considered one of the most luxurious and warmest fibres in the world. The vicuna is a rare Peruvian animal which can only be found at the rocky mountains in the Andes, can only be shorn once every two years and are protected by law - they look similar to the Llamas. Vicuñas, which live in the Andes and can only be shorn once every two years, are protected by law Selfridges, who was stocking them, describes the rare wool as the “lightest, warmest and softest fabrics in the world”. The German premium knitwear brand has produced only 10 pairs and each comes in a wooden presentation box.

Peru is the third largest country in South America after Brazil and Argentina and ranks among the 20 largest countries in the world. The country's location facilitates the access to markets in Asia and North America. The Peruvian territory covers an area of 1,285,216 square kilometers and can geographically be divided into three regions: The Coast, or Costa, is a narrow desert strip along the Pacific Ocean approximately 3,080 km long, and accounts for only 10.7% of Peru's territory, but is home to about 55% of Peru's population (approximately 17.0 million inhabitants). The political and financial capital Lima is located in this region as well as the rich fishing grounds and agricultural cultivation areas. The Peruvian Highlands, or Sierra, is the area of the Andean Mountains, covering 31.8% of national territory and serving as home to about 32% of the country's population (approximately 9.9 million inhabitants). This region contains the country's major mineral deposits. The Amazon Rainforest, or Selva, is with 57.5% of the country's territory the largest region, but only about 13% of the Peru's population (approximately 4.0 million inhabitants) live here. The area is rich in petroleum, gas and forestry resources. The Peruvian economy is classified as upper middle income by the World Bank."

"text": "\"Chinchilla - A Romantic History | About the Chinchilla | Housing and Caging | Feeding The Chinchilla has been internationally prized for its luxuriously soft fur since shortly after the conquest and occupation of Spanish America. There, on the dry slopes of the Andes in Chile, Peru, Bolivia and Argentina, they flourished in the wild state. Chinchilla got its name from the Chincha Indians, who used the chinchilla for food and clothing. During the 15th Century, a tribe of Indians, the Chinchas, had hunted and trapped this tiny animal subsisting on the meat and using the skins to sleep on. They also wore robes woven from the plucked fur. So the Spaniards called this all important little animal Chinchilla after the Chinchas. In time, the Chinchas were conquered by the mighty Inca Indians. Under Inca rule, the Chinchas were forbidden to wear the Chinchilla robes. They immediately became the fur of the Inca Royalty and adorned only those Incas who were of noble birth. In the 16th Century the Incas were, in turn, conquered by the Spaniards who demanded great tributes for their queen."

The pre-Columbian peoples grew them for thousands of years as a main source of protein, since animals did not have an important role as a source of food or draught power, particularly in Mesoamerica. As early as the pre-Columbian period, the kidney bean ( P. vulgaris L.) had gained wider acceptance and was selected more intensively. The early chroniclers inform us that, in the Aztec and Incan empires, great importance was given to this species and it was used to pay tributes. It gained even more popularity after the conquest and, from 1880, with the exception of isolated studies the work on genetic improvement was mainly concentrated on this bean. This preferential treatment was detrimental to the other species which are of greater or comparable interest in modern agriculture, at least in areas that do not offer optimum ecological conditions for their development. The ancestral form of P. vulgaris grows within the boundary between two climatic zones subtropical dry and tropical temperate where pre-Columbian societies established many settlements, a tact which may explain the acceptance of the species."

Grant August 11, 2013Share 349 Stumble Tweet Pin 19 +1 19 Share 2389While many plants generously display their flowers every year and throughout entire seasons, others take their sweet time in showing off their blooms. Some hold back for years and even centuries before blossoming, which makes seeing the event a once-in-a-lifetime experience.10 Sheep-Eating Plant This plant isn’t called the sheep eater for nothing—it’s actually an animal killer! It produces monstrous, three-meter (9.8 ft) shoots with mace-like flowers that ensnare sheep and other animals. The animals get caught in the spikes and eventually die of starvation or exposure. Some believe the sheep eater (technically known as Puya chilensis) developed this habit in order to use the rotting corpses for nutrients. And if you’re thinking this plant would be a great way to keep dogs off your lawn, you may want to reconsider, as it’s difficult to grow and takes 15 to 20 years to flower.9 Madagascar Palm The Madagascar palm ( Tahina spectabilis) grows to enormous proportions, dies after fruiting, and flowers only once— after 100 years. What makes this tree especially unique is it was only discovered in 2008. Before then, it apparently flowered so rarely, nobody noticed it was different from the other palms. The tree has surprisingly similar characteristics to palms found in Asia (around 6,000 kilometers—3,700 miles—away), which leads some scientists to believe the palms have existed on Madagascar since it detached from India 80 million years ago. While thousands of seeds were collected after discovering the tree, and a handful of those were sent to botanical gardens, there are fewer than 100 Madagascar palms in existence.8 Night-Blooming Cereus Compared to the other plants on this list, the night-blooming cereus ( Selenicereus grandiflorus) is practically speedy in its habit of flowering after a single year of growth."

"text": "Malbec was originally a grape associated with south-west France but today is much more glorious in South America. Better known then as Côt, it was the most commonly planted vine throughout south-west France, including Bordeaux, and was still widely grown there until the severe winter of 1956 killed many of the vines and more glamorous alternatives were replanted. It even has its very own synonym, Pressac, on the right bank of the Gironde. In Bordeaux today it is not common - growers complain of coulure, poor fruit set - but is mainly grown in such outlying parts of Bordeaux as Bourg, Blaye and Entre-Deux-Mers. It is also theoretically allowed, although not widely grown, in a wide range of other appellations in south-west France but it is in Cahors that it is best known, even if it travels under the name Auxerrois or Côt here. ( It is also known in the Loire Valley as Côt but is a marginal ingredient in the appellations of Anjou-Touraine. ) The regulations for Cahors stipulate a minimum of 70% of Malbec/Auxerrois/Côt and the vine seems to do best on the topsoils of the arid causses, the limestone plateaux above the river Garonne which are Cahors's most traditional vineyards. Certainly wines made here rather than down by the river bank seem to have the greatest potential for ageing, especially when blended with Tannat rather than Merlot grapes. There has also been a recent influx of money and ambition into Cahors, from foreigners whether they be from New York or Paris such as the family behind the Cartier empire which is determined to produce in Le Pigeonnier a Cahors worthy of cult prices. But the fact remains that a great deal of Cahors is pretty rustic stuff, often a little thin and animal on the mid-palate."

In physics, it has contradictory definitions; when polarizing waves you remove inequality, but polarizing can also mean to cause something to acquire polarity, or in other word emphasize inequality. When applied to opinions, however, people usually seem to have the second definition in mind. In a Huffington Post blog entry, I found the phrase \"\"polarized opposite opinions\"\". Is this an indication that \"\"polarized opinions\"\" on its own could be interpreted as \"\"unified opinions\"\" unless clarified? Otherwise, how should I understand the phrase? I've compared the number of search results for \"\"polarized opinions\"\" and \"\"polarizing opinions\"\", and the latter seems to be more popular. Nevertheless, to me that one seems to imply that the opinions themselves bear the responsibility of dividing people into groups, instead of blaming the people who formulate the opinions. Is that correct, or is there another distinction between \"\"polarized\"\" and \"\"polarizing\"\"?"

Using Sass can help writing those selectors in a more modular fashion. through selector nesting and mixins, we can come up with fancy crazy solutions to build the desired API. In this article, I”ll (re-)introduce a few of these ways, listing what I feel are the pros and cons of each of them.

In the New Testament the apostle Andrew, the first disciple to join Jesus, is the brother of Simon Peter. According to tradition, he later preached in the Black Sea region, with some legends saying he was crucified on an X-shaped cross. Andrew, being a Greek name, was probably only a nickname or a translation of his real Hebrew name, which is not known. This name has been common (in various spellings) throughout the Christian world, and it became very popular in the Middle Ages. Saint Andrew is regarded as the patron of Scotland, Russia, Greece and Romania. The name has been borne by three kings of Hungary, American president Andrew Jackson (1767-1845), and, more recently, English composer Andrew Lloyd Webber (1948-).

"text": "How do I write a method that accepts a variable number of parameters? ★ ★ ★ ★ ★★ ★ ★ ★★ ★ ★★ ★★May 13, 2004 by CSharp FAQ // 11 Comments Share 0 0Update: Named and optional (default) parameters are available starting from C# 4.0. For more information, see Named and Optional Arguments (C# Programming Guide). Q: How do I write a method that accepts a variable number of parameters? A: Languages like C and C++ have always offered some means for using and creating functions capable to accept a variable number of parameters. The most widely known example of a function which takes a variable number of parameters is printf ():int printf (char *format, …); // the ellipsis means “ variable number of params “Using this function is pretty easy:printf ( “ Hello, world\\n “ );printf ( “ The sum of %d and %d is %d\\n “, a, b, a+b);However, the creation of such functions in these languages relays on a set of predefined macros and is not particularly elegant or intuitive. C# offers an elegant solution to this problem through parameter arrays. A parameter array is a single-dimensional array included as the last parameter in the parameter list of a method:public string Concat ( string separator, params string [] strings) {string result = “”;for ( int i = 0; i < strings. Length; i++) {if (i > 0)result += separator;result += strings [i];}return result;}Such a function can be called in two different ways:a) Passing the function an array instance argument:string [] names = { “Anders”, “Eric”, “Scott”, “Duncan” };Message Box . Show (Concat (“+”, names) + ” = great team”);b) Using zero or more type-compatible arguments for the parameter array: Message Box ."

Simply put, a conjunction is a word that joins together sentences, clauses, phrases, or words. Many conjunctions have a very specific conjoining role, such as joining a dependent and independent clause. Als, on the other hand, is used to join together many different parts of speech. And in its different roles, it can take on different meanings. Let’s explore what these functions and meanings are and how to identify them. Meaning and usage of als (1) when, while (subordinating conjunction; used with an indicative past tense)In this usage, als begins a dependent clause that has its own subject and verb. The verb of the als -clause is typically in the simple past tense. Wir haben dich angerufen, als wir in Berlin ankamen. We called you when we arrived in Berlin."

Thomas Rogers04.02.2008 • 10:00 AM • 79 Comments79 Comments When the \"\"Battlestar Galactica\"\" miniseries premiered in 2003, viewers could be forgiven for having low expectations. At the time, the Sci Fi Channel, on which \"\"Battlestar\"\" aired, was a niche cable channel known mostly for \"\"Stargate SG-1\"\" and \"\"Star Trek\"\" reruns, and the show's source material, a cheesy '70s flop for ABC, wasn't exactly \"\"The Sopranos.\"\" The series' premise, furthermore, involved enough clichéd science fiction elements -- an evil race of robots, a hotshot fighter pilot, and characters with names like \"\"Apollo\"\" -- to make the show's fans wince when explaining it to their friends. Three and a half seasons later, \"\"Battlestar Galactica\"\" has become one of TV's smartest series. It has won a Peabody Award, made the Sci Fi Channel a reputable cable outlet, and revolutionized science fiction on television. It has proved that the genre, when liberated from the body-hugging Lycra jumpsuits and staid dialogue that have plagued most post-\"\"Trek\"\" science fiction series, can be a vehicle for both scathing political commentary and genuine pathos. On Friday, Jan. 16, \"\"Battlestar\"\" returns to Sci Fi after a lengthy hiatus to conclude its fourth and final season. If you haven't been watching, the show follows a fleet of human survivors from the Twelve Colonies of Kobol -- a group of planets decimated by a surprise attack from the Cylons."

"text": "\"What does Andrew mean? Pronounce Andrew [ 2 syll. an - drew, and -r- ew ] The baby boy name Andrew is pronounced in English as AE N-DRuw †. Andrew is largely used in the English, Greek, and Russian languages, and it is derived from Old Greek origins. A biblical name, it is derived from the element 'andreia' meaning male, manly, brave, virility. Andreas (Latin and Old Greek) is an original form of Andrew. In the Bible, Andrew was the first chosen of the twelve apostles, and the brother of Simon Peter; the name Andrew was a Greek translation of his Hebrew name, which is not known. He was later thought to be crucified at Patras in Achaia, and was thereafter venerated as Saint Andrew and adopted as the patron saint of Scotland, Greece, Russia, and Romania; various forms of the name have thus become popular in these countries. In Scotland, the city of St Andrews was named after him, and in England, more than 600 churches were dedicated to him. Other saints of the same name include Saint Andrew of Crete (650-740), who was cured of dumbness after his Holy Communion; Andrew Avellino (1521-1608), the patron saint of Naples and Sicily; and Andrew Fournet (1752-1834), who helped establish the order of the Daughters of the Cross. In literature, the name is borne by the slow and comic Sir Andrew Aguecheek in Shakespeare's comedy Twelfth Night (1601); this association, together with the use of the term 'Merry Andrew' to refer to a clown during the Tudor period lent a comic touch to the name during the time."

"text": "RETZIUS, ANDERS ADOLF ( b. Stockholm, Sweden, 13 October 1796; d. Stockholm, 18 April 1860)anatomy, histology, anthropology. Retzius holds a distinguished place among nineteenth-century biologists for his contributions to comparative anatomy, histology, and anthropology, and as a pioneer of these disciplines in Scandinavia. He played a prominent role in the development of biological science there between 1820 and 1860, especially in the establishment of the Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm, and was one of those who guided Swedish biology and medicine into scientific channels against the strong influence of the speculative Naturphilosophie prevalent in many of the German universities. Retzius’ father, Anders Jahan Retzius (1742–1821), was professor of natural history at the University of Lund. One of his major accomplishments was to assemble an important collection of minerals and rocks for the university. Reizius was introduced to natural history, especially zoology, by his father; and when he entered the University of Lund, he came under the influence of Arived Henrik Florman, professor of anatomy, who initiated him into the methods of dissection and careful observation. In 1816 he spent a year at Copenhagen with the anatomist Ludwig Levin Jacobson, the physicist Hans Christian Oersted, and zoologist J. H. Reinhard. The latter, a disciple of Cuvier, impressed young Retzius with his scholarly lectures on comparative anatomy, illustrated with his own preparations. After his return Retzius finished his medical studies with a dissertation on the anatomy of cartilaginous fishes, especially the dogfish and the ray, Observationes in anatomiam chondropterygium praecipue squali et rajae generum (lund, 1819). In 1823 Retzius was appointed professor of veterinary science at the Stockholm Veterinary Institution, and in 1824, sponsored by Berzelius, he also became professor of anatomy at the Karolinska Medico-Kirurgiska Institutet."

UA = urinalysis (analysis of urine)Leukocyte esterase (LE) = a type of enzyme contained in most leukocytes (white blood cells), tested for on a urine dipstick (first part of a urinalysis)The presence of white blood cells in the urine indicates inflammation of some kind. Most commonly, it indicates a urinary tract infection. However, there are other causes of LE being present in the urine not due to infection: Such as in interstitial cystitis (inflammation). Also, classically, if someone has taken phenazopyridine (brandnames Pyridium or Azo —the stuff that turns your urine orange), this test will be a false positive: that is, the test will say LE is present in the urine, but actually, this test result is caused by the drug itself. There are some other drugs that cause give a similar false positive result. Moderate amount is exactly what it sounds like: there’s a moderate amount of the leukocyte esterase in the urine on a dipstick. The urine is typically further analyzed under the microscope when a positive result such as the ‘moderate LE’ is found: visually, the presence of white blood cells is confirmed (or not)."

"text": "Word has been received of the recent death of Sarah Frances Anders, a trailblazer for Southern Baptist women in ministry and past moderator of the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship. Sarah Frances Anders Anders, a longtime sociology professor at Louisiana College, died June 8 at age 90 after a long battle with Alzheimer’s disease. A memorial service was held June 15. A self-described “Christian woman who loves to teach,” Anders began researching and writing about women in the church in the 1970s. She became both an advocate and a record keeper, compiling statistics on the numbers of ordained women serving in Southern Baptist life taken over by Baptist Women in Ministry in 2005 to provide data for the organization’s State of Women in Baptist Life report last updated in 2015. Pam Durso, executive director of Baptist Women in Ministry, said as a scholar Anders “addressed the hard realities of sexism and exclusion of women by Southern Baptist churches” and by the early 1980s had “stepped into the role of prophet” to begin laying groundwork for BWIM’s founding in 1983.“While Sarah Frances was certainly skilled as a scholar, her work went beyond mere research,” said Durso, a former professor of church history. “ Her hope was to contribute the advancement of ministry opportunities for Baptist women called and gifted by God, and she certainly succeeded in that hope. With strong passion and unfailing grace, Sarah Frances Anders served faithfully as our prophet, our pioneer and our advocate. ”Anders served as the ninth CBF moderator in 1999-2000, presiding over the 2000 General Assembly in Orlando, Fla., when the Fellowship decided to join the Baptist World Alliance. John Tyler, who served as moderator the previous year, remembered her as “a trailblazer for women in Baptist life."

"text": "www.rnkshops.com There Is A New Kind Of CFO Needed In Town Published on October 19, 2015Anders Liu-Lindberg Follow Sign in to follow this author Finance Master helping finance functions create value and supporting finance professionals grow their careers The finance function is undergoing rapid development these years as is the rest of business. I've written about this in many posts and if you’re only now embarking on a finance transformation journey I suggest you start by reading “ Introducing The Finance Transformation Nine Box ”. This will give you a basic framework to get started and structure your thoughts around. Obviously I’m not the only one talking about the rapid changes in the finance function and there is a lot of buzz about what kind of CFO is needed to lead the new finance function. Strategic partner, business partner, value-adding insights etc. are all phrases that are attributed to the new CFO that’s needed in town. Ask the executive headhunters and they all say the same In a white paper recently published by AESC 11 leading executive search consultants around the world who specialize in finding the right CFO were asked what companies are looking for these days when they are hiring a new CFO. They basically all say the same so I’ll summarize in brief. The CFO role is getting more complex The CFO should be more operationally and commercially savvy than ever before The CFO role is becoming more strategic The CFO is seen as having primary responsibility for cybersecurity The CFO is having a higher degree of involvement in technology investments The CFO is more and more likely to qualify to take over the CEO chair All of these demands call for a new kind of CFO and depending on which framework you use you could say it’s more of a catalyst or strategist compared to steward or operator as would be the terms Deloitte uses. The interesting thing though that the executive search consultants also say is that the CFO still needs to be technically savvy and know the basics."

A long-standing relationship with accounting giant KPMG has come to an end as the movie maven brings Ernst & Young aboard instead. The switch was described as the product of \"\"a competitive process,\"\" with plenty of language to reassure us that KPMG wasn't booted for saying mean things about Netflix. That being said, it's easy to panic when a company you're invested in switches auditors. We don't really know what goes on in the back rooms and financial archives.

"text": "\"Inventors The History Behind the Thermometer By Mary Bellis What is a Thermometer? Thermometers measure temperature, by using materials that change in some way when they are heated or cooled. In a mercury or alcohol thermometer the liquid expands as it is heated and contracts when it is cooled, so the length of the liquid column is longer or shorter depending on the temperature. Modern thermometers are calibrated in standard temperature units such as Fahrenheit or Celsius. Early History The first thermometers were called thermoscopes and while several inventors invented a version of the thermoscope at the same time, Italian inventor Santorio Santorio was the first inventor to put a numerical scale on the instrument. Galileo Galilei invented a rudimentary water thermometer in 1593 which, for the first time, allowed temperature variations to be measured. In 1714, Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, the modern thermometer. Thermometer At the start of the seventeenth century there was no way to quantify heat. Santorio Santorio Santorio invented several instruments, a wind gauge, a water current meter, the \"\"pulsilogium,\"\" and a thermoscope, a precursor to the thermometer. Santorio was the first to apply a numerical scale to his thermoscope, which later evolved into the thermometer."

Humanoid Cylon John Cavil (played by Dean Stockwell) is shown leading the planning for the genocidal attack on the human race. All of the six \"\"known\"\" humanoid Cylons (Cavil, Leoben Conoy, D'Anna Biers, Simon, Aaron Doral, Six, and Sharon Valerii) are present in the control room of the main Cylon base. Two versions of Cavil are shown in a Resurrection Ship, with the \"\" Final Five \"\" Cylons in stasis in resurrection chambers. The two versions of Cavil briefly discuss their plans for \"\"teaching a lesson\"\" to the Final Five (who were their creators), and one version of Cavil announces his intention to witness the destruction of humanity on the ground. This version of Cavil travels to the planet Picon, where he encounters Ellen Tigh (one of the Final Five, played by Kate Vernon) in a strip club. Other characters from the series are also depicted: Gaius Baltar (James Callis) has a final meeting with Caprica-Six; Samuel Anders (Michael Trucco) is shown at his Pyramid team's training camp along with the team doctor, who is Number Four /Simon (Rick Worthy); and Tory Foster (Rekha Sharma) is shown driving to an airport in an SUV-type vehicle. The destruction of the Twelve Colonies is depicted in a series of new special effects shots, with the Cylon Hybrid seemingly narrating the destruction in a typically convoluted but poetic way. Almost all of the planets of the Twelve Colonies are depicted in short scenes. Ellen Tigh is severely wounded in the nuclear attack on Picon, and Cavil helps her leave the planet aboard a Colonial Fleet rescue ship as he feels she still hasn't learned her lesson yet and thus cannot download and regain her memories."

In physics, it has contradictory definitions; when polarizing waves you remove inequality, but polarizing can also mean to cause something to acquire polarity, or in other word emphasize inequality. When applied to opinions, however, people usually seem to have the second definition in mind. In a Huffington Post blog entry, I found the phrase \"\"polarized opposite opinions\"\". Is this an indication that \"\"polarized opinions\"\" on its own could be interpreted as \"\"unified opinions\"\" unless clarified? Otherwise, how should I understand the phrase? I've compared the number of search results for \"\"polarized opinions\"\" and \"\"polarizing opinions\"\", and the latter seems to be more popular. Nevertheless, to me that one seems to imply that the opinions themselves bear the responsibility of dividing people into groups, instead of blaming the people who formulate the opinions. Is that correct, or is there another distinction between \"\"polarized\"\" and \"\"polarizing\"\"?"

He's still agonizing over each character he plays, and still plagued by self-consciousness about how he looks. He's never forgotten what happened after his very first film audition more than fifty years ago, when the writer, director, and producer of the movie he tried out for called him on the phone.

See also Andreas. The frequency of the surname in Scotland is attributable, at least in part, to the fact that St. Andrew is the patron saint of Scotland, so the personal name has long enjoyed great popularity there. Legend has it that the saint’s relics were taken to Scotland in the 4th century by a certain St. Regulus. The surname was brought independently to North America by many different bearers and was particularly common among 18th-century Scotch-Irish settlers in PA and VA. In the United States, it has absorbed many cognate or like-sounding names in other European languages, notably Swedish Andersson, Norwegian and Danish Andersen, but also Ukrainian Andreychyn, Hungarian Andrásfi, etc."

Anderson Cooper is the correspondent. Denise Schrier Cetta, producer. Human beings have lived with dogs for thousands of years. You'd think that after all that time we'd have discovered all there is to know about them. But it turns out that until recently scientists didn't pay much attention to dogs. Dolphins have been studied for decades, apes and chimps as well, but dogs, with whom we share our lives, were never thought to be worthy of serious study. As a result, we know very little about what actually goes on inside dogs' brains. Do they really love us, or are dogs just licking us so they can get fed?

Vernon, studies the domestic life, foodways, and religious practices of the residents of George Washington's plantation, with a special interest in the slave community. Excerpted with permission from Virginia Cavalcade. Volume 48, Autumn 1999, No. 4, pp.178-190. The slaves of George Washington must have found the hours when they were not working for their master very precious, for it was then they had the time and the freedom to pursue their own interests and to exercise some measure of control over their own lives. Evenings, Sundays, and holidays (Christmas, Easter Monday, the Monday after Pentecost, and official days of prayer and fasting), the African Americans at Mount Vernon occupied themselves with activities to benefit themselves and their families, rather than their master. Slaves on the four outlying farms of the Mount Vernon estate may have had even more freedom in their private lives than those residing at the Mansion House (Mount Vernon), where personal servants had to be available well into the evening, and where opportunities for close supervision by the master and his family abounded. However, even in their free time and in the most personal aspects of their lives, Washington's slaves were never free of his ultimate control. Lacking the kind of voluminous documentation that outlines the lives of George Washington and his family, modern historians studying the African American community at Mount Vernon must pore over such sources as Washington's 1786 and 1799 censuses of his slaves, court records, archaeological artifacts, and account books to assemble a picture of the slaves' everyday lives. At the height of its development as a plantation, Mount Vernon comprised eight thousand acres divided into five separate farms-- Mansion House, Dogue Run, Union, Muddy Hole, and River--each of which contained a small village of African-born and Virginia-born slaves."

Syd Barrett did not have Pink Anderson and/or Floyd Council records, as Wikipedia states, as they were extremely rare. Pink Anderson had some records made in the early sixties, but I doubt they were exported to the UK. A Floyd Council compilation was only issued in 1987, a bit too late for Barrett to use it for the band’s name. I doubt he had access to the original (American) Melotone 78RPM-vinyls dating from 1937, worth a small fortune. But those two blues musicians were named on the liner notes of a popular Blind Boy Fuller compilation, from 1962, on the Philips label. So popular that even Bob Dylan bought one when he visited the UK. That record was Country Blues 1935–1940 and the liner notes were written by Paul Oliver:“ Pink Anderson or Floyd Council -- these were a few amongst the many blues singers that were to be heard in the rolling hills of the Piedmont, or meandering with the streams through the wooded valleys. ”Actually, it wasn't Syd Barrett who distilled the name 'Pink Floyd' from that record, but Stephen Pyle, one of his friends, who suggested Pink Floyd for a band he played in. Eventually they took Those Without (1962-ish) instead."

The film is about a fastidious British dressmaker named Reynolds Woodcock, played by Daniel Day Lewis, whose life becomes upended when he finds a new muse, who begins to challenge him. ARI SHAPIRO, HOST: This is a movie season where films compete to be bigger, louder and flashier. Right now you can choose to spend a couple of hours in a dark theater with jedis, monsters or singing circus impresarios. In the middle of all this comes a quiet, intimate movie. It's called \"\"Phantom Thread,\"\" and it's about a British dressmaker named Reynolds Woodcock played by Daniel Day-Lewis. ( SOUNDBITE OF FILM, \"\"PHANTOM THREAD\"\")DANIEL DAY-LEWIS: (As Reynolds Woodcock) Chic - oh, don't you start using that filthy, little word, chic. Whoever invented that ought to be spanked in public. I don't even know what that word means. SHAPIRO: He runs a fashion house with his sister, Cyril, played by Lesley Manville."

"text": "\"A History of Oconee County Long Creek Academy - Oconee County Click Here to go to the official website of the Oconee County government. Oconee is a Cherokee word meaning \"\"water eyes of the hills.\"\" Oconee County was created in 1868 when the legislature renamed districts to counties and divided Pickens County. Walhalla, created in 1850 by the German Colonization Society, became the county seat, and is the gateway to the Blue Ridge Mountains. The railroad played a major role in the development of this area. The Blue Ridge Railroad was completed in 1859, and connected Anderson with Walhalla. When the Atlanta & Richmond Air Line Railway was built in 1873, it led to the creation of the town of Westminster in 1874, named for the church in England, and the creation of the town of Seneca (1873), an Indian name. Newry, near Seneca, is an 1890s textile village, still with some of its nineteenth century charm. Mountain Rest, a picturesque name, is in the mountains north of Walhalla. West Union began as a temperance union."

S. stamp issued on Leif Erikson Day, 1968Observed by United States Type Cultural Significance Celebrating Leif Erikson as the first European to discover North America Date October 9Next time October 9, 2018Frequency annual Related to Leif Erikson Leif Erikson Day is an annual American observance which occurs on October 9. [ 1] It honors Leif Erikson ( Old Norse: Leifr Eiríksson, Icelandic: Leifur Eiríksson, Norwegian: Leiv Eiriksson ), the Norse explorer who led the first Europeans thought to have set foot in continental North America [2] [3] [4] ( Greenland excluded). Contents1 History2 Date3 References4 Further reading5 External links History [ edit]The book America Not Discovered by Columbus by Rasmus B. Anderson was published in 1874, helping popularize the idea that Vikings were the first Europeans in the New World, an idea that was all but verified in 1960. [ 5] During his appearance at the Norse-American Centennial in 1925, President Calvin Coolidge gave recognition to Leif Erikson as the discoverer of America due to research by Norwegian-American scholars such as Knut Gjerset and Ludvig Hektoen. [ 6] In 1929, Wisconsin became the first U. S. state to officially adopt Leif Erikson Day as a state holiday, [7] [8] thanks in large part to efforts by Rasmus Anderson. [ 9] In 1931, Minnesota did also. [ 10] By 1956, Leif Erikson Day had been made an official observance in seven states (Wisconsin, Minnesota, South Dakota, Illinois, Colorado, Washington, and California) and one Canadian province ( Saskatchewan ). [ 11] In 2012, the day was also made official in Las Vegas, Nevada. [ 12] In 1963, the U. S. Representative from Duluth, John Blatnik, introduced a bill to observe Leif Erikson Day nationwide. The following year Congress adopted this unanimously."

"text": "Top Ranked Churches in America The act of ranking churches is a dangerous thing when approached with an unhealthy perspective of competition, idolization, or biblical immaturity. So before we get to the rankings let’s cover some do’s and don’ts. DO remember that what man says is a successful church isn’t always what God says is a successful church. DO understand that we’re incapable measuring what God values (i.e., heart attitude, authentic conversions, true discipleship, selfless advancement of the gospel, etc.) so we settle for measuring things that only hint at the possibility of spiritual fruit (i.e., church size, growth rate, influence, church planting, etc.). DO recognize that man’s inferior metrics are still helpful in identifying some churches worth learning from. DO remember that the majority of great work in God’s Kingdom flies under the radar and doesn’t get noticed by man’s systems for measuring ministry. DO remember sometimes exceptional churches have humble results in terms of size, growth, and influence. Try to discover these ministries and learn from them, too. DO remember sometimes unhealthy churches know all the right formulas to give the appearance of spiritual success."

"text": "\" [–] bankcranium 1118 points 5 years ago I am certainly no professional historian, but this was the subject for a term paper I wrote last semester for my anthropology class, so I feel like I should chime in with some of the things I found. Certainly, the argument which /u/Mccormicculus brought up from Diamond's \"\"Gun's Germs and Steel\"\" is valid for particular cultures in North America. However, Diamond oversimplifies things. There were very sophisticated cultures in Mesoamerica and the Andes which were MORE than capable of developing complex metallurgy. In fact, Mesoamerica (particualrly West Mexico) and Andean cultures had rich traditions in bronze-working before the Spanish conquest. Think of the stereotypical imagery you see of the Spanish conquest. Artifacts show that these societies had acute knowledge of creating copper allows with particular sound and color properties. The leaders of the Aztec were more than decked out in gold and metal objects. However, the items are almost exclusively religious or \"\"prestige\"\" items with no real practical purpose. In West Mexico, the items are almost all bells."

"text": "\"Mountains in southern Argentina are frequently capped with a layer of snow. Argentina's climate doesn't fit into one category or definition – the country ranges from a subtropical zone along the Brazilian border to a subpolar area in the extreme south. Most of the country is relatively temperate, but some of the most visited regions, such as hot, humid Buenos Aires and the cold, arid Patagonian Andes, feature extreme weather. The ideal time to visit one part may be the worst time to visit another, so pairing more than one region in the same trip can make planning and packing difficult. Tropical and Subtropical Regions Steer clear of Northern Argentina in the summer, when scorching heat and humid air makes sightseeing unpleasant at best. Argentina's tropical and sub-tropical provinces include Chaco, Corrientes, Formosa, Misiones and Santiago del Estero, as well as portions of Salta, Santa Fe and Tucumán. These areas are characterized by high temperatures year-round and plentiful rainfall, with no dry season at all in the inland subtropical regions. Visit these areas during the Argentine winter – which occurs during North American summer – when the weather is milder and drier. Temperate Areas The bulk of central Argentina, including the Pampas farmland, Cordoba Hills, Mar de Plata and Buenos Aires, enjoys a moderate climate with hot, humid summers and cool, dry winters. January and February – summer in the Southern Hemisphere – see temperatures in the high 90s and 100s."

[ 1]Enduro in its most basic definition is a type of mountain bike racing where the downhills are timed, and the uphills are not. [ 2] [3] [4] Riders are timed in stages that are primarily downhill, with neutral \"\"transfer\"\" stages in between. The transfer stages usually must be completed within a time-limit, but are not part of the accumulated time.

Enduros typically take place over one or two days, however, week-long competitions also exist such as the Trans Provence (France), [5] the Andes Pacifico (Chile), [6] and the Pisgah Stage Race (United States). [ 3] A typical one-day enduro consists of 3 to 5 timed stages which take place on technically demanding, generally descending terrain, and often with sections of singletrack. These stages are linked by predominantly ascending \"\"transfer\"\" stages. Although a rider's performance on the physically demanding transfer stages does not affect his or her result, they often have a time-limit, or a latest allowed arrival-time for the start of the next stage."

Contents1 Definitions1.1 Africa, North America, Antarctica1.2 Australia1.3 Europe1.4 South America1.5 Asia2 The list3 Volcanic Seven Second Summits4 See also5 Notes6 References Definitions [ edit]Due to different interpretations of continental borders (geological, geographical, geopolitical) several definitions for the highest summits per continent and the number of continents are possible. The number of seven continents used here is based on the continent model used in Western Europe and the United States. The continents as defined here are on a geological and geographical basis, not geopolitical. An additional complication in determining the highest volcanic summits is defining exactly what constitutes a volcano and how much topographic prominence it must have relative to any nearby non-volcanic peaks in order to qualify. For the purposes of this list, the summits must be an actual eruptive volcanic center, not merely made of volcanic rocks which were uplifted by other geological processes."

Movement- The movement of individuals across any given scale Region- An area distinguished by a unique combination of trends or features. Human Environment Interaction- The effects humans have on the environment Location- The position of anything on Earth’s surface. Place- A specific point on Earth distinguished by a particular character. Explanation- The 5 Themes of Geography are basically the governing principles of geographical studies. They play a major role in the explanation of various concepts and can be applied in nearly any geographic situation. Examples-Movement- This geographic theme encompasses migration and diffusion, such as migration of cultures or diffusion of certain ideas (religion). Region- A way that humans have divided up the world, such as into formal regions like California (any other state or country would also suffice) Human Environment Interaction- Humans clearing land to create farmland or mountains preventing humans from establishing settlement. Location- Either an absolute location or relative location would suffice as an example of this geographic theme. Place- The physical characteristics of a location that sets it apart from other locations is defined as its characteristics of place."

Moreover, there is the cold mountainous climate of the Andes, arid in the northern and central part, and cold and snowy in the south. The rains are abundant in the north-east, while in the extreme south, snowfalls are frequent. In the south-central, in the Pampas and in Patagonia, there is a vast arid area. Being located in the southern hemisphere, in Argentina the seasons are reversed in comparison with North America or Europe. Subtropical climate In the northernmost part of Argentina, the climate is subtropical, characterized by intense heat in the summer months, and pleasantly warm temperatures in the winter months. In the western part, the Gran Chaco receives moderate rainfall, from 500 to 1,000 millimetres (20 to 40 inches) per year, with a pronounced dry period in winter. In Rivadavia, in the province of Salta, the heat is intense from November to February, with average highs generally around 34/36 degrees Celsius (93/97 °F), and also with the highest peaks of all the South American continent: the highest recorded temperature is as high as 48 °C (118.5 °F)! In winter, the daytime temperatures drop to around 25 °C (77 °F). However, the daily temperature range can be remarkable, so while it can get hot even in winter, sometimes it can get cold at night, especially when the Pampero, the cold wind coming from the southern lands, arrives here."

They typically stand upon two front legs connected to a central iron shaft, called a \"\"dog\"\" or \"\"billet bar\"\" which has a bent end to form the back foot. The andiron dogs or billet bars keep the flaming logs in the firebox of the fireplace as they burn and settle. For centuries fireplaces have been furnished with all manner of andirons, with antique andirons adding to the visual interest of today's fireplaces. Andirons used in colonial America were crudely fashioned of iron by local blacksmiths. 18th and 19th century andirons were constructed of three or more sections. These sections (except the base or feet) were hollow, cast in halves and silver soldered together. The soldered sections were then spun in a slow turn lathe to smooth and polish the sections. The joints (seams) could be easily seen by looking inside the various sections."

Mark Mallett The weather outside is frightful and you'd like nothing better than to curl up in front of the fire with a good ancient-forest friendly book and a mug of fair trade organic cocoa. But you won't be able to settle until you know your fire is the most earth-friendly it could be. What exactly should you burn in the ol' fireplace for the cleanest, most efficient flame with the lowest greenhouse gases emissions? What kind of hearth do you have? For starters, you need to assess what you can burn in your fireplace, since you can't just toss a handful of corn onto the andirons and expect a toasty blaze. Wood pellets and corn pellets can only be burned in pellet stoves that are specially designed to slowly feed the pellets into the flames. If you already have an airtight woodstove or insert, you have little choice but to burn natural wood, trust the age old rule: the drier, the better. Most firelogs are not recommended for burning in airtight woodstoves or fireplace inserts -- unless you leave the doors open, which would significantly decrease the efficiency of your stove."

"text": "One of the interesting features of a traditional fireplace set are the pair of andirons placed on the sides of the fire chamber. Often the andirons are decoratively fashioned of intricate wrought iron or polished brass lathe work. An andiron typically has three supports: two legs under the post at front and a third leg extending down from a horizontal bar that runs back from the post. The top of the post frequently has a shiny sphere of metal, most commonly brass. But the andirons also have a practical function: they serve as a rack to elevate the firewood above the chamber floor and to prevent logs from rolling out of the fireplace. Andirons are designed to provide a space underneath the firewood for the lighter and more flammable materials that are used to start a fire. Andirons are free-standing to allow removal for cleaning ashes from the fireplace. Follow the steps provided here, using the andirons to set up a fire that will light with just one match.

"text": "They`re Dinosaurs, But Fireplace Andirons Are Too Stylish For Extinction February 05, 1989 | By Karen E. Klages. Though the invention of the fireplace grate eliminated the need for them, andirons are far from extinct on today`s well-manicured hearths. They`re the ``dressing,`` the ``decorative touch`` that turns the black hole into an opulent space, says Matthew Smyth, a New York interior designer who recently introduced a line of contemporary andirons. Back in the 16th Century, when they first emerged, andirons served a functional purpose in addition to being decorative. Shaped like an ``L,`` they were developed from crude iron bars called ``hand irons`` and were used to lift logs up off the hearth floor to increase air circulation underneath for a more robust fire. But when the grate came along in the late 18th Century, it fast established itself as the superior tool for the job. Some people kept their andirons as pure decoration, even moving them outside and in front of the fireplace. Others did away with them altogether. ``They`re like the chrome bumper on the `46 Dodge-useless but very pretty,`` says Ron Pulone, owner of Sunset Fireplace Fixtures, a California-based manufacturer of fireplace equipment. But, he`s quick to note, useless or not, andirons are enjoying a ``rebirth`` as the fireplace becomes one of the most popular amenities in homes today. ("

He is the main protagonist and first-person narrator in the Percy Jackson & the Olympians series and appears in every book of the Camp Half-Blood chronicles except The Lost Hero and The Dark Prophecy. In his most recent appearance in The Hidden Oracle, the seventeen-year-old Percy states that he and his girlfriend Annabeth Chase plan to finish senior year in New York before he heads to New Rome University. [ 1]Percy is described as having a \"\"Mediterranean\"\" complexion, with black hair and his father's sea green eyes. [ 2] The powers he inherited from his father include controlling water, control over boats and old sailing ships, making hurricanes, breathing underwater, and talking to horse-like animals and sea creatures. He is also a notably good swordsman. Throughout the series, Percy fights by using a ballpoint pen named Anaklusmos ( Ancient Greek for \"\"Riptide\"\") that changes into a \"\"celestial bronze\"\" sword. Percy's fatal flaw is excessive personal loyalty, which he does not at first see as a danger. [ 3]In the film adaptations, he is portrayed by Logan Lerman."

But it's well worth the scenic drive. Enjoy wind-swept coastal views, plus historic architecture, antiques shops and specialty boutiques, and a smattering of tiny museums. There are redwood forests all around, and the best way to get into their ancient groves is via the almost unreasonably fun Skunk Train, an old-fashioned steam-powered train that traverses a circa-1885 railroad. Best Nearby Wineries: Mendocino is known both for wineries and breweries, and two of the best are Breggo, where a tasting room beckons you to try the signature pinots ($5 gets you six samples), and Navarro Vineyards, which serves up gewürztraminer, pinot noir, and chardonnay. During Navarro's one-hour vineyard tour, you might see a chicken tractor or babydoll sheep. And tastings are free. Unforgettable Meal: Ravens'is a vegetarian restaurant at the Stanford Inn -- but if you're an omnivore, don't let that put you off.

For a brief overview, see “ Ten Key Points about Medicinal Bracelets “. Chapter 4The Science of Medicinal Bracelets The vision inspiring the study of medicinal bracelets is of an attractive, simple, easy-to-use, safe, naturally effective kind of medicine, one you can wear on your wrist. Medicinal bracelets also have much to teach us regarding the deeper patterns of physiology and nutrition. The case for medicinal bracelets seems self-evident. Everyone should recognize that a medicinal bracelet that could, for instance, suppress pain in arthritis would convey highly attractive benefits. Instead of having repeatedly to purchase drugs with inevitable side effects and then dose them correctly, one could simply make a one-time acquisition of a bracelet and wear it with almost no further thought. Minimally invasive, the bracelet would possess the beauty of jewelry and eliminate the risk of children overdosing on their parents’ supplements. For poor people in developing countries, a bracelet that provided iron and zinc could help solve major problems of health in a neat and satisfactory way."

Thanks Follow 21 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: You could just use the name Alli, you don't have to use a full name if you don't want. Anonymous · 9 years ago1 1 Comment My daughter's name is Allie. My husbands brother and dad both died a few years before she was born and their names were Alan and Allistair so she is named after them. Allie is a beautiful name. You don't need to have a longer name and then shorten it. I don't like the spelling Ally and I can't stand the spelling Alli. They seem harsh and unfinished. Allie is a soft delicate spelling - in my opinion anyway :-)Julia83 · 9 years ago3 1 Comment Allegra Alana Cup Kaik · 9 years ago0 0 Comment Alexis Alexa Alice Mom of 8 Beauiful Kids! · 9 years ago0 0 Comment Alie- Natalie Ally- Alana British Girl24 · 9 years ago0 0 Comment Alice... · 9 years ago0 0 Comment My friends just had a baby and they named her Alessandra could be pronounced (Uh-less-andra or Ale-ess-andra) they call her Aless for short, but you could use Allie as a nickname for that."

The race follows a short, straight course from a standing start over a measured distance, most commonly ¼ mile (1,320 ft (402 m)), with a shorter (1,000 ft (305 m)) becoming increasingly popular, as it has become the standard for nitromethane-fuelled Top Fuel dragsters and funny cars, where some major bracket races and other sanctioning bodies have adopted it as the standard, while the ⅛ mi (660 ft (201 m) is also popular in some circles.

Under the local tennis program, as the best girl player, she was matched up against the worst boy player -- who was usually Boris Becker. After winning the German Juniors and the European Juniors, she turned pro on October 18, 1982. The next day, she lost to Tracy Austin, who was less-than impressed with the 13 year old, telling reporters there were \"\"hundreds of girls\"\" like Graf back in the States. Peter kept a tight rein on Steffi's schedule to ensure that she wouldn't \"\"burn out\"\" as she climbed up the rankings. She finally won her first title on April 13, 1986, defeating Chris Evert at the Family Circle Cup. In total, Graf won 107 singles titles (third all-time behind Martina Navratilova and Evert), including 22 majors (second all-time). She found herself at the center of a near-tragedy on April 30, 1993. As arch rival Monica Seles was resting during a changeover at the Hamburg Open, a man made his way through the stands, and plunged a knife into her back. At first, it was thought the attack was prompted by the conflict in Seles's native Yugoslavia."

Judy brought in Smith from 1998 and then later sent her son to Spain in 2002 where he met Álvarez. “ I believe in the beginning it was very important for Andy to keep the ball in play because I think [it suited] his temperament,” Bollettieri says. “"

Based on the analysis of hundreds of pro forehands filmed in high speed video, this series of articles developed a framework for understanding the core elements in the modern forehand, and also the technical variations across the grip styles. Then Roger Federer emerged as the world's dominant player, and started hitting forehands that looked different than any of the other players we have studied. Everyone loves watching him, for obvious reasons. His forehand is one of the biggest shots in the game, and also one of the most beautiful. It's explosive, fluid, and effortless. You can almost see his racket head jump to warp speed on the forward swing. At the same time it looks so natural and relaxed. Then there is the amazing variety."

Open men's singles final. No. 1 seed Novak Djokovic will take on second seed Roger Federer Sunday in New York. Djokovic is looking to capture his first U. S. Open title since 2011, and third Grand Slam of the calendar year after capturing titles at the Australian Open and Wimbledon. For Federer, it's another chance to win his 18th Grand Slam title and first since 2012. Djokovic absolutely waxed defending champion Marin Cilic in the semifinal Friday. He needed all of 85 minutes to wrap up a resounding 6-0, 6-1, 6-2 victory. A class act, Djokovic was quick to point out after the match that Cilic was dealing with a significant injury, per TSN's Mark Masters: Mark Masters @ markhmasters Djokovic all class ... points out that Cilic dealing with ankle injury ... calls him \"\"courageous\"\" for coming out & finishing match Federer also cruised to a straight-sets victory, polishing off No. 5 seed Stan Wawrinka 6-4, 6-3, 6-1.

Open, and three at the Australian Open, only the clay courts of the French Open have persistently denied Sampras a Grand Slam championship. His unemotional but powerful game is built on a serve that crosses the net at up to 130 miles per hour and is backed up by excellent ground strokes and precise serve-and-volley skills. Added to his physical abilities is his single-minded determination to win, which has made him one of the greatest players in the game. Winning Ways Pete Sampras was born on August 12, 1971 in Washington, D. C., the third of four children. His parents, Soterios (known as Sam) and Georgia (Vroustrous) Sampras, are of Greek descent. Sampras spent his first years in Potomac, Maryland, where his father worked as a civil aerospace engineer for the U. S. Air Force. His father took a job in the aviation industry when Sampras was seven and the family moved to Rancho Palos Verdes, California. After moving to the warmer climate, Sampras, along with his brother Gus and two sisters, Stella and Marion, decided to take up tennis. The family joined the Peninsula Racquet Club where the Sampras children began taking lessons."

Switzerland's elfin Roger Federer, lean -- almost frail to the naked eye -- and wearing a six-inch ponytail and a too-wide white Nike headband, was 22. Five years younger, Rafael Nadal, an absurdly muscular Spaniard, was garbed in his pirate gear of the day. Federer had just won Indian Wells, defeating Tim Henman in the final, and was the world's No. 1-ranked player. He had also suffered some California sunstroke; after several days in bed, he arrived in Miami. It wasn't close. On the final point, in a pattern that would be repeated again and again over the years, Nadal hit three successive left-handed forehands to Federer's right-handed backhand. The last led to a thundering overhead -- followed by a joyous knee-lifting, upper-cutting fist pump -- and a startling 6-3, 6-3 victory."

Each player uses a tennis racket that is strung with cord to strike a hollow rubber ball covered with felt over or around a net and into the opponent's court. The object of the game is to play the ball in such a way that the opponent is not able to play a valid return. The player who is unable to return the ball will not gain a point, while the opposite player will. Tennis is an Olympic sport and is played at all levels of society and at all ages. The sport can be played by anyone who can hold a racket, including wheelchair users. The modern game of tennis originated in Birmingham, England, in the late 19th century as lawn tennis. [ 1] It had close connections both to various field (lawn) games such as croquet and bowls as well as to the older racket sport today called real tennis."

As the world still reverberates to news of the US$3 billion sale of Dr Dre’s Beats Electronics to Apple, Billionaire.com unveils hip-hop’s rich list as this musical art form continues its epic journey from pavement to penthouse. After weeks of speculation, Silicon Valley giant Apple has finally gone official on its purchase of headphones company Beats Electronics, for US$3 billion. The news will come as a relief for the company’s co-founder and poster child Andre Young, better known as Dr Dre, who (perhaps rather prematurely) announced on a video that went viral two weeks ago, his updated status as “the first billionaire in hip-hop, right here on the motherf______ West Coast”. While the buyout will not see him propelled into billionaire territory just yet, the US$3 billion sale will catapult the good doctor to the status of the world’s wealthiest hip-hop artist. With an estimated net worth of US$790 million, the Aftermath Entertainment founder beats Puff Daddy (yes, his name is back to Puff Daddy, for now) into second spot. Combined, the top 10 wealthiest hip-hop artists have total assets of more than US$3 billion. These music moguls have made fortunes through lucrative album sales and record labels, but they also all have sideline businesses, ranging from fashion brands to phone-sex companies. Some are also heavily endorsed by brands and businesses. And many of these gods of hip-hop are major philanthropists in their own right, championing inner-city education and humanist causes, in particular Jay-Z, Puff Daddy and Eminem."

Lists 3/02/2015 @ 9:01AM 14,003 views Brazil's Richest People: Facts and Figures For the first time since 2008, Brazil’s billionaires club has shrunk. It took some time, but the richest people in Brazil have finally started to feel the consequences of the country’s economic slowdown, which began in late 2010 amid a combination of unfortunate events such as a drop in commodity prices, corruption scandals and government overspending. While last year a record 65 Brazilians earned a spot in FORBES’ annual World’s Billionaires list, today the country only boasts 54 billionaires. Most of those with fortunes dropping below the mark of $1 billion have the devaluation of the Brazilian real against the U. S. dollar to blame. It’s a big step backward considering not too long ago Brazil’s Real was the best-performing among emerging-market currencies. Still, seven new additions from Brazil made it into the list: Carlos Sanchez, Itamar Locks, Blairo Maggi, Lucia Maggi, Maurizio Billi, Marli Pissollo and Hugo Ribeiro. Jose Luis Cutrale, who made it into the ranks in 2000 but dropped off in 2001, is a returnee this year, along with billionaire banking heiress Maria de Lourdes Egydio Villela, who was last ranked as a billionaire in 2013.

"text": "\"The Perfect Bite: Which margarine is the healthiest and best tasting? Hilary Hagerman The Perfect Bite May 6, 2013Many of us use margarine and butter on a regular basis, whether it’s for cooking, baking or just to top off some cooked veggies or a fresh bun. But is margarine actually better for you than butter? And which margarine is the healthiest? On today’s episode of The Perfect Bite, host Andrea Jenna is joined by registered dietician Samara Foisy. They taste test five popular margarine brands and give you the skinny on what reigns supreme when it comes to health and taste. Becel with Bertolli Olive Oil“Nice and creamy,” Samara immediately comments of the texture of this margarine. Andrea agrees that the texture is smooth, but says the taste is a little salty – although both taste testers agree there isn’t an overpowering olive flavour. “Consumers may be confused, because as you can see there’s a whole bunch of different kinds of margarines on the market with different property,” Samara explains. “ So for example the Becel has olive oil in it."

"text": "\"Where Is Kimmy From 'Full House' Today? Andrea Barber Hasn't Acted Since She Lived Next Door To The Tanners By Kaitlin Reilly Apr 16 2015I grew up watching the Tanner family's wacky mishaps every week on Full House, and as much as I loved the hijinks that DJ, Stephanie, and Michelle put the adults through, the jokes were always better when Kimmy was involved. DJ's best friend and the nosy neighbor next door with the ridiculously stinky socks,was easily one of the series' best characters. Kimmy Gibbler was the comic relief of Full House and potentially the wackiest sitcom character in the TGIF lineup. So what is actress Andrea Barber, who played Kimmy for eight seasons, doing today? You might be surprised to see where this actress ended up. Update: On Tuesday, it was confirmed that Barber will star in Netflix's Full House spinoff Fuller House as Kimmy, alongside Candace Cameron Bure as DJ and Jodie Sweetin as Stephanie. Unlike Bure, Barber didn't do much acting after Full House ended its eight-season run in 1995. Maybe that's because she did a ton of acting in her youth. Before appearing on Full House, the sitcom star had a recurring role on Days Of Our Lives as Carrie Brady, a part she held from 1982 to 1986."

The four-door design may have been to simultaneously emulate 1980's sedans much like the 1982-1986 Pontiac Bonneville but the overall chassis design is much closer to the Monte Carlo. The Tahoma is tailored to function as a lowrider, making the car the only other four-door vehicle other than the Savanna to be designed as such and may appear on the streets with already built-in hydraulics. As a result, the car can only be modified at Loco Low Co. (see #Modifications ). Performance Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas Acceleration, handling, speed, and brakes are all highly competent and satisfying.

A second version of the song, sung partly in English, released in 1996 as \"\"Time to Say Goodbye\"\", paired Bocelli with English soprano Sarah Brightman, and achieved even greater success, topping charts all across Europe, including Germany, where it became the biggest-selling single in history.

"text": "San Andreas plate boundary It is important to remember that the plate boundary is quite wide in some places and consists of a host of structures, and the the San Andreas fault is only one major fault in the complex. This is partly evident in the photo to the right taken from a commercial flight looking N. The red dots trace the San Andreas fault and the San Jacinto fault. The Mojave desert is the flat area to the right. The yellow dots trace a plunging syncline of Miocene sandstones and conglomerates. The mountains to the left are the San Gabriel mountains. The faults, the fold and the mountains are all part of the plate boundary. The associated deformation continues all the way to the coast and offshore. Thus the mobile zone that is the plate boundary here is quite wide. The Landers EQ tells us that deformation also occurs to the east of the San Andreas within the Mojave desert. Pallett Creek is also evident as the thin dark green riparian corridor in the right central portion of the image."

"text": "\"Science, Tech, Math ›Science All About the San Andreas Fault Share Flipboard Email Printby Andrew Alden Updated August 03, 2017The San Andreas Fault is a crack in the Earth's crust in California, some 680 miles long. Many earthquakes have occurred along it, including famous ones in 1857, 1906 and 1989. The fault marks the boundary between the North American and Pacific lithospheric plates. Geologists divide it into several segments, each with its own distinct behavior. A research project has drilled a deep hole across the fault to study the rock there and listen for earthquake signals. In addition, the geology of the rocks around it sheds light on the fault's history. Where It Is California geologic map. California Geological Survey The San Andreas Fault is the foremost of a set of faults along the boundary between the Pacific Plate on the west and the North American Plate on the east. The west side moves north, causing earthquakes with its movement. The forces associated with the fault have pushed up mountains in some places and stretched apart large basins in others."

"text": "\"San Andreas Fault Zone General Statement The main strand of the San Andreas fault in southern California consists of two segments (fig. 1): (1) the Mojave Desert segment that mainly separates rocks of San Gabriel Mountains-type from rocks of San Bernardino Mountains-type, and (2) the Coachella Valley segment that separates rocks of Peninsular Ranges-type from rocks of San Bernardino Mountains- and San Gabriel Mountains-type. In plan view the main strand has a left-stepping geometry: the Mojave Desert segment has been stepped left (west) about 15 km from the Coachella Valley segment, with the step occurring in the San Gorgonio Pass region of the southeastern San Bernardino Mountains (Matti and others, 1985). This left step forms a structural knot in the San Andreas that has influenced the evolution of the entire transform-fault system and has led to multiple fault strands that evolved sequentially. Multiple strands also have developed along the Mojave Desert segment of the San Andreas (Barrows and others, 1985, 1987). This strand complexity has made it difficult to identify the distribution and displacement history of faults in the San Andreas family, and has led to variable fault nomenclature and to conflicting fault-movement scenarios. Fault Nomenclature The complex pattern of late Cenozoic right-lateral faults in southern California has led to nomenclature for the San Andreas fault that is more complex than for central California. There, most if not all Miocene and younger displacement on the San Andreas has occurred within a narrow, singular (although complex) zone that extends the length of central California to Hill and Dibblee's (1953) \"\"Big Bend\"\" at the latitude of the Garlock fault. The name \"\"San Andreas fault\"\" has been used by most workers in central California (Hill, 1981), and little confusion has arisen with regard to which geologic structure bears the name \"\"San Andreas fault\"\" or whether multiple fault strands have generated sequential displacements. By contrast, the San Andreas fault in southern California consists of multiple strands, each representing some portion of the geologic history allocated to the more singular zone in central California (Noble, 1932; Dibblee, 1954, 1968a; Allen, 1957; Crowell, 1962; Woodburne, 1975; Matti and others, 1985)."

His singing can make a person feel incredible emotion and passion and the fact he has overcome many obstacles to realize his talent, probably adds all that passion in his voice. This is the very essence of what he expresses; his soul is brought to consciousness through his voice. A voice we treasure!Horses and Popes Andrea Bocelli, the man with a beautiful tenor voice that has reached out and captured the hearts of all ages, and has crossed the boundaries from classic to pop, moving millions with his sincerity of passionate performance. He has sung for Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI, Queen Elizabeth, two United States Presidents and numerous heads of states. The opening ceremony of the Expo 2010 in China in front of twenty heads of state and government was one of these events. Wherever he sings he attracts a full house. He sang for 80000 people at the ‘Charming China’ concert in the Shanghai Stadium . What is most intriguing is that his audience has not just been people. Andrea has had an affinity with horses from a young age and especially with Arabian horses."

Looking back to July 25, 1956. The 57th Memorial Anniversary of the sinking of the Andrea Doria. The first SOS reached the Coast Guard station in East Moriches, Long Island, and an armada of ships were dispatched to rescue more than 700 passengers. Struck in the side, the top-heavy Andrea Doria immediately started to list severely to starboard, which left half of her lifeboats unusable. The consequent shortage of lifeboats might have resulted in significant loss of life, but improvements in communications and rapid responses by other ships averted a disaster similar in scale to the RMS Titanic disaster of 1912. 1660 passengers and crew were rescued and survived, while 46 people died as a consequence of the collision. The evacuated luxury liner capsized and sank the following morning. Ad from Holiday Magazine a year before the Andrea Doria tragedy."

"text": "\"Environment What Is Geography, And How Did Its Study Begin? The term Geography is directly derived from a Greek term meaning \"\"description of the earth\"\". Ancient Greek polymath Eratosthenes, one of the foremost geographers of the ancient world, and one of the first to use the term \"\"geography\"\" to describe the trade. Defining Geography The term Geography is directly derived from a Greek term meaning \"\"description of the earth\"\". There are many purported origins as to the word geography, though it likely came from the Greek word, geographia, which is the source of the French word geographie and the Latin geographia as well. Today it is defined as the study of the topography, terrain, and atmosphere of the earth. This would include the rivers, lakes, oceans, mountains, and the lay of the land. The study also includes people, land use and industries as in demography. There is much about geography that includes cartography but ancient texts and maps point to the fact that cartography preceded geography in the ancient world. History of Geography In Ancient Greece, Eratosthenes is credited to have been the person who coined the word \"\"geography.\"\""

The original male Greek name, Andréas, (directly etymologically related to andras/άνδρας, man/adult male, husband) represents the hypocoristic, with endearment functions, of male Greek names composed with the andr- prefix, like Androgeos ( man of the earth ), Androcles ( man of glory ), Andronikos ( man of victory ). The same root ἀνδρ-, andr- denoting the male gender is found e.g. in misandry (the hatred of the male sex), andrology (male physiology), androgens (male hormones) and polyandry (the practice of taking more than one husband at the same time)."

"text": "Cesium Chloride for Cancer The pioneer of the Cesium therapy was the highly esteemed American physicist, Dr. Aubrey Keith Brewer (1893 – 1986). He was the chief of the National Bureau of Standards and Mass Spectrometer and Isotope Section and his main interest was in the behavior of cell membranes. He noted during his research that there were areas of the earth where the incidences of cancer were very low. In analyzing the foods from these regions, they were found to be extremely high in cesium and rubidium. The Hopi Indians have water that contains rubidium and potassium while the Hunzas of Northern Pakistan have water high in cesium and potassium. Through his research, he was able to prove that cesium chloride can penetrate cancer cells when other nutrients cannot. Following his research, many studies on humans have been carried out by H. Nieper in Hanover, Germany, and by H. Sartori in Washington, DC, as well as by a number of other physicians. On the whole, the results have been very good. How Does Cancer Affect Cellular p H?
