When Nico and Bianca were young, their mother died when Zeus struck the hotel they were staying at with lightning while trying to kill Nico and Bianca. Both were brought to the Lotus Hotel by the Fury Alecto, who was disguised as a lawyer in order to protect them. Alecto was also instructed by Hades to bathe them in the River Lethe to wipe their memories. After their mother died, the Oracle, showing up shortly after the destruction of the hotel, was cursed by an angry Hades to never have the Oracle 's soul rest and to be locked in that body, even after it died, until he and his children became accepted in Olympus."

Annabeth is Percy's friend and sometimes competitor. Her mom is Athena, so you can imagine that she is one smart cookie. Thanks to Annabeth, we learn pretty quickly that Athena and Poseidon don't get along very well. Athena once caught Poseidon and his girlfriend in her sacred temple, getting busy. Another time, Athena and Poseidon competed to be patrons of the city of Athens, and Athena won. Once, though, Athena and Poseidon collaborated together inventing the chariot – Athena building the chariot part and Poseidon creating horses from ocean waves."

Athena, the goddess who cursed her Medusa was a daughter of Phorcys and Keto, and was once a priestess of Athena. Poseidon was bitter at Athena for recently turning his beloved Coronis into a raven, and beating him to the city of Athens, so he decided to get back at her by seducing Medusa within the goddess' virgin temple.

The girl's hair was turned into serpents and anyone who would look upon her gaze would turn to stone. Her sisters, Stheno and Euryale, were eventually made immortal, though they do not have the power to turn people to stone like their sister. Medusa had two children with Poseidon, Chrysaor, who was born from her neck, and another child, Pegasus, who was born from her blood when Perseus beheaded her (while the Gorgon was asleep). The hero would subsequently use Medusa's severed head to defeat Poseidon's ferocious sea serpent, saving Andromeda in the process."

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."

Fortunately, the floating island of Delos gave sanctuary to Leto and on the seventh day of the seventh month, she gave birth to her first child Artemis. Almost immediately, Artemis grew to the size of a six-year-old girl and helped deliver her twin brother Apollo. Following this, Artemis asked Hestia to take her to Mount Olympus so she can meet with her father, Zeus."

"text": "\"Diagram showing the basic physiologic mechanisms of the kidney Renal function, in nephrology, is an indication of the kidney 's condition and its role in renal physiology. Glomerular filtration rate ( GFR) describes the flow rate of filtered fluid through the kidney. Creatinine clearance rate ( C Cr or Cr Cl) is the volume of blood plasma that is cleared of creatinine per unit time and is a useful measure for approximating the GFR. Creatinine clearance exceeds GFR due to creatinine secretion, [ citation needed] which can be blocked by cimetidine. In alternative fashion, overestimation by older serum creatinine methods resulted in an underestimation of creatinine clearance, which provided a less biased estimate of GFR. [ 1] Both GFR and C Cr may be accurately calculated by comparative measurements of substances in the blood and urine, or estimated by formulas using just a blood test result ( e GFR and e C Cr ). The results of these tests are used to assess the excretory function of the kidneys. Staging of chronic kidney disease is based on categories of GFR as well as albuminuria and cause of kidney disease. [ 2]Dosage of drugs that are excreted primarily via urine may need to be modified based on either GFR or creatinine clearance.

Lymph nodes in the area are often removed during the operation as well (lymphadenectomy). However, not all lymph nodes are removed in the most common type of pancreaticoduodenectomy because studies showed that patients did not benefit from the more extensive surgery. [ 3]At the very beginning of the procedure, after the surgeons have gained access to the abdomen, the surfaces of the peritoneum and the liver are inspected for disease that has metastasized. This is an important first step as the presence of active metastatic disease is a contraindication to performing the operation. The vascular supply of the pancreas is from the celiac artery via the superior pancreaticoduodenal artery and the superior mesenteric artery from the inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery. There are additional smaller branches given off by the right gastric artery which is also derived from the celiac artery."

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

In the case of allergic rhinitis, the inflammation is caused by the degranulation of mast cells in the nose.

The illustration below summarizes the documented evolution of the name from the Irish language name Mac Oirgíallaigh to the modern English language name Curley. The majority of the Irish Curley population is contained in the area to the south and west of Lough Ree in counties Galway, Roscommon, and the edge of Westmeath, with an especially high concentration in and near the city of Athlone, which straddles counties Roscommon and Westmeath. There is a second lesser concentration along the border of counties Roscommon and Galway around the cities of Athleague and Roscommon. It is in this area that one can also find Ballymacurly manor, which dates to the 1500's or earlier. There's also a significant population in counties Louth and Monaghan, spreading inland from the city of Dundalk. This northern population exhibits a greater diversity of name varieties, also including Kirley, Kerley, Corley, and Mc Curley among others, suggesting an older lineage which has had more time for different name versions to evolve and multiply."

[ 3] Adults with LADA may initially be diagnosed incorrectly as having type 2 diabetes based on their age, particularly if they have risk factors for type 2 diabetes such as a strong family history or obesity. The diagnosis is typically based on the finding of hyperglycemia together with the clinical impression that islet failure rather than insulin resistance is the main cause; detection of a low C-peptide and raised antibodies against the islets of Langerhans support the diagnosis. It can only be treated with the usual oral treatments for type 2 diabetes for a certain period of time, [4] [5] after which insulin treatment is usually necessary, as well as long-term monitoring for complications. The concept of LADA was first introduced in 1993, [6] though The Expert Committee on the Diagnosis and Classification of Diabetes Mellitus does not recognize the term, instead including it under the standard definition of diabetes mellitus type 1.

[ 8] Compared to juvenile type 1 diabetes, the symptoms develop comparatively slowly, over a period of at least six months. [ 9]Diagnosis [ edit]It is estimated that more than 50% of persons diagnosed as having non-obesity-related type 2 diabetes may actually have LADA. Glutamic acid decarboxylase autoantibody (GADA), islet cell autoantibody (ICA), insulinoma-associated (IA-2) autoantibody, and zinc transporter autoantibody (Zn T8) testing should be performed on all adults who are not obese who are diagnosed with diabetes.

"text": "\"The death and burial of St. Patrick Irish History From The Annals The legendary burial place of St. Patrick at Down Cathedral Co. Down. Photo by Shiela O'Connor The death of St. Patrick is recorded in the Annals of the Four Masters in the year 493 when he is said to have been 122 years old. Although many historians now believe he died in the year 461. The Annals of Ulster say: Patrick, arch-apostle, or archbishop and apostle of the Irish, rested on the 16th of the Kalends of April in the 120th year of his age, in the 60th year after he had come to Ireland to baptize the Irish. The Annals of the Four Masters record a longer obituary. Patrick, son of Calphurn, son of Potaide, archbishop, first primate, and chief apostle of Ireland, whom Pope Celestine the First had sent to preach the Gospel and disseminate religion and piety among the Irish, was the person who separated them from the worship of idols and spectres, who conquered and destroyed the idols which they had for worshipping; who had expelled demons and evil spirits from among them, and brought them from the darkness of sin and vice to the light of faith and good works, and who guided and conducted their souls from the gates of hell (to which they were going), to the gates of the kingdom of heaven. It was he that baptized and blessed the men, women, sons and daughters of Ireland, with their territories and tribes, both fresh waters and sea inlets. It was by him that many cells, monasteries, and churches were erected throughout Ireland; seven hundred churches was their number. It was by him that bishops, priests, and persons of every dignity were ordained; seven hundred bishops, and three thousand priests was their number. He worked so many miracles and wonders, that the human mind is incapable of remembering or recording the amount of good which he did upon earth."

These sciences include epidemiology, anthropology, sociology, psychology, physiology, pharmacology, nutrition, neuroanatomy, endocrinology, and immunology. [ 1] The term is often used interchangeably, but incorrectly, with health psychology. [ citation needed]. The practice of behavioral medicine encompasses health psychology, but also includes applied psychophysiological therapies such as biofeedback, hypnosis, and bio-behavioral therapy of physical disorders, aspects of occupational therapy, rehabilitation medicine, and physiatry, as well as preventive medicine. In contrast, health psychology represents a stronger emphasis specifically on psychology's role in both behavioral medicine and behavioral health. [ 2]Behavioral medicine is especially relevant in the United States, where many of the health problems are primarily viewed as behavioral in nature, as opposed to medical. For example, smoking, leading a sedentary lifestyle, and alcohol abuse or other substance abuse are all factors in the leading causes of death in the United States. Practitioners of behavioral medicine include appropriately qualified nurses, social workers, psychologists, and physicians (including medical students and residents), and these professionals often act as behavioral change agents, even in their medical roles. Behavioral medicine uses the biopsychosocial model of illness instead of the medical model. [ 3] This model incorporates biological, psychological, and social elements into its approach to disease instead of relying only on a biological deviation from the standard or normal functioning."

Swallowing pills can be difficult and downright unpleasant. It causes one in three people to gag, vomit, or choke. That may keep people from sticking to their medication routines, which can make them sicker. “We often see people who can swallow food and liquid just fine, but have difficulty with pills. Some people have an aversion to swallowing pills, and others have physical issues that affect their ability to swallow,” says Denise Ambrosi, director of the Speech-Language Pathology Department at Harvard-affiliated Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital. How to swallow a pill A study by researchers from the University of Heidelberg in Germany may help people with pill swallowing difficulties. They suggest two techniques that can help people improve their ability to get medicine down. Their report was published in the Annals of Family Medicine.

[ 1] If a mismatch is accidentally incorporated, the polymerase is inhibited from further extension. Proofreading removes the mismatched nucleotide and extension continues. DNA replication is a biological process that occurs in all living organisms and copies their DNA; it is the basis for biological inheritance. The process starts with one double-stranded DNA molecule and produces two identical copies of the molecule. Each strand of the original double-stranded DNA molecule serves as template for the production of the complementary strand. Cellular proofreading and error toe-checking mechanisms ensure near perfect fidelity for DNA replication. In a cell, DNA replication begins at specific locations in the genome, called \"\"origins\"\". Unwinding of DNA at the origin, and synthesis of new strands, forms a replication fork. In addition to DNA polymerase, the enzyme that synthesizes the new DNA by adding nucleotides matched to the template strand, a number of other proteins are associated with the fork and assist in the initiation and continuation of DNA synthesis."

However, we now know that the process of DNA replication is very complex and requires the participation of many different components. Let’s examine each of these components and see how they fit together to produce our current picture of DNA synthesis in E. coli, the best-studied cellular replication system. In the preceding section, we introduced the concept of the replication fork. Figure 8-20 gives a detailed schematic view of fork movement during DNA replication; we can refer to this illustration as we consider each component of the process. Figure 8-20DNA replication fork. Go to: DNA polymerases In the late 1950s, Arthur Kornberg successfully identified and purified the first DNA polymerase, an enzyme that catalyzes the replication reaction. This reaction works only with the triphosphate forms of the nucleotides (such as deoxyadenosine triphosphate, or d ATP). The total amount of DNA at the end of the reaction can be as much as 20 times the amount of original input DNA, so most of the DNA present at the end must be progeny DNA. Figure 8-21 depicts the chain-elongation reaction, or polymerization reaction, catalyzed by DNA polymerases."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Figure 1. During meiosis, homologous recombination can produce new combinations of genes as shown here between similar but not identical copies of human chromosome 1. Homologous recombination is a type of genetic recombination in which nucleotide sequences are exchanged between two similar or identical molecules of DNA. It is most widely used by cells to accurately repair harmful breaks that occur on both strands of DNA, known as double-strand breaks (DSB). Homologous recombination also produces new combinations of DNA sequences during meiosis, the process by which eukaryotes make gamete cells, like sperm and egg cells in animals. These new combinations of DNA represent genetic variation in offspring, which in turn enables populations to adapt during the course of evolution. [ 1] Homologous recombination is also used in horizontal gene transfer to exchange genetic material between different strains and species of bacteria and viruses. Although homologous recombination varies widely among different organisms and cell types, most forms involve the same basic steps. After a double-strand break occurs, sections of DNA around the 5' ends of the break are cut away in a process called resection. In the strand invasion step that follows, an overhanging 3' end of the broken DNA molecule then \"\"invades\"\" a similar or identical DNA molecule that is not broken."

"text": "Science & Mathematics Biology What is DNA renaturation? Why are renaturation kinetics slower than denaturation kinetics? Follow 2 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: normally DNA is in the form of a double strand (ds), however when heated it becomes denatured which means the hydrogen bonds between the base pairs are broken and the ds DNA melts into two (complementary) single stranded (ss) DNA molecules. When the heat is removed and the solution cools again the hydrogen bond can be reformed to yield ds DNA from the two ss DNA molecules, however for this to occur the DNA molecules have to meet in the solution and bind in the correct orientation and at the right position, and so the neighboring DNA bases can also pair up. This process is dynamic and will only end when a considerable amount of base pairing has been achieved and the complex becomes more stable. Floz · 7 years ago0 0 Comment This Site Might Help You.

A simple PCR reaction consists of a set of synthetic oligonucleotide primers that flank the target DNA sequence, target DNA, a thermostable DNA polymerase and d NTPs. A repetitive series of cycles involving template denaturation, primer annealing, followed by extension of the annealed primers, yields tremendous amounts of DNA. Because the strands synthesized in one cycle serve as a template in the next, a million-fold increase in the DNA amount is achieved in just 20 cycles.

A PCR or polymerase chain reaction is a laboratory procedure in which millions of copies of a specific piece of DNA are made. It is essentially an amplification method, whereby the tiniest amounts of DNA that may be present in blood, hair or tissues can be copied so that there is enough for analysis. The name of this method is derived from the key component involved that carries out the replication of the DNA, called a DNA polymerase. This is an enzyme that exists in nature. The most commonly used polymerase is Taq polymerase, which is obtained from the bacterium Thermus aquaticus. This enzyme works optimally at about 70 o C. It can create a new DNA strand, using the original DNA as a template, and using DNA oligonucleotides (also known as primers). The primers used in PCR are synthesized, short sequences of DNA that are made to match exactly the ends of the DNA region to be copied."

Hyperchromicity is the material’s increasing ability to absorb light. The Hypochromic Effect describes the decrease in the absorbance of ultraviolet light in a double stranded DNA compared to its single stranded counterpart. Compared to a single stranded DNA, a double stranded DNA consists of stacked bases that contribute to the stability and the hypochromicity of the DNA. When a double stranded DNA is denatured, the stacked bases break apart and thus becomes less stable. It also absorbs more ultraviolet light since the bases no longer forms hydrogens bonds and therefore are free to absorb light. Ways to denature DNA include high temperature, addition of denaturant, and increasing the p H level. Importance of Hypochromic Effect [ edit]Nucleic acid melting curve showing hyperchromicity as a function of temperature The measurement of absorption of light is important in monitoring the melting and annealing of DNA. At the melting temperature (Tm), the DNA is half denatured and half double stranded. By lowering the temperature below the Tm, the denatured DNA strands would anneal back into a double stranded DNA."

For other uses, see Ligation (disambiguation). A sticky end ligation In molecular biology, ligation is the joining of two nucleic acid fragments through the action of an enzyme. It is an essential laboratory procedure in the molecular cloning of DNA whereby DNA fragments are joined together to create recombinant DNA molecules, such as when a foreign DNA fragment is inserted into a plasmid. The ends of DNA fragments are joined together by the formation of phosphodiester bonds between the 3'-hydroxyl of one DNA terminus with the 5'-phosphoryl of another.

"text": "\"Soldering and Brazing Explained For many years the two most common methods of joining copper tube and fittings have been soldering and brazing. These tried and true methods are in a number of ways similar, yet there are also several distinct differences that set them apart. This paper explains the similarities and highlights the differences between the two joining processes to help determine which joining method is most desirable. Overview The most common method of joining copper tube is with the use of a socket-type, copper or copper alloy fitting into which the tube sections are inserted and fastened by means of a filler metal, using either a soldering or brazing process. This type of joint is known as a capillary or lap joint because the socket of the fitting overlaps the tube end and a space is formed between the tube and the fitting. This space is called the capillary space. The surfaces of fitting and tube that overlap to form the joint are known as the faying surfaces. Tube and fitting are then solidly joined using a filler metal that is melted into the capillary space and adheres to these surfaces. Figure 1. Lap Joint - Tubular Parts The filler metal is a metal alloy that has a melting temperature below that of either the tube or fitting."

"text": "\"Encyclopedia From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia\"\"PCR\"\" redirects here. For other uses, see PCR (disambiguation). A strip of eight PCR tubes, each containing a 100 μl reaction In molecular biology, the polymerase chain reaction ( PCR) is a technique to amplify a single or few copies of a piece of DNA across several orders of magnitude, generating thousands to millions of copies of a particular DNA sequence. The method relies on thermal cycling, consisting of cycles of repeated heating and cooling of the reaction for DNA melting and enzymatic replication of the DNA. Primers (short DNA fragments) containing sequences complementary to the target region along with a DNA polymerase (after which the method is named) are key components to enable selective and repeated amplification. As PCR progresses, the DNA generated is itself used as a template for replication, setting in motion a chain reaction in which the DNA template is exponentially amplified. PCR can be extensively modified to perform a wide array of genetic manipulations. Almost all PCR applications employ a heat-stable DNA polymerase, such as Taq polymerase, an enzyme originally isolated from the bacterium Thermus aquaticus. This DNA polymerase enzymatically assembles a new DNA strand from DNA building blocks, the nucleotides, by using single-stranded DNA as a template and DNA oligonucleotides (also called DNA primers ), which are required for initiation of DNA synthesis. The vast majority of PCR methods use thermal cycling, i.e., alternately heating and cooling the PCR sample to a defined series of temperature steps."

The purpose of such changes may be, but is not confined to, improvement of machinability; facilitation of cold working; improvement of mechanical or electrical properties; or increase in stability of dimensions. The time-temperature cycles used vary widely both in maximum temperature attained and in cooling rate employed, depending on the composition of the material, its condition, and the results desired. When applicable, the following more specific process names should be used: Black Annealing, Blue Annealing, Box Annealing, Bright Annealing, Cycle Annealing, Flame Annealing, Full Annealing, Graphitizing, Intermediate Annealing, Isothermal Annealing, Process Annealing, Quench Annealing, and Speroidizing.

Annelids are small worms with segmented bodies that have a true coelom that is lined with tissue derived from mesoderm. Annelids are of the three major phyla of protostomes. The name annelidia derives from annellus, which means \"\"little ring\"\" in Latin. The body of annelids is divided into segments that are separated by septa, and in many annelids, bristles called satae are attached to each segment. Respiration Aquatic annelids often breathe through gills. Land-dwelling annelids, such as earthworms, take in oxygen and give off carbon dioxide through their moist skin. Excretion: Annelids produce two kinds of waste: Digestive and Cellular waste. Disgestive waste passes out through the anus at the end of the digestive track. Cellular waste containing oxygen is eliminated by nephridia, which are excretory organs that filter fluid in the coelom."

Their segmented bodies, similar internal anatomy, and developmental stages unite these diverse worms. The annelid has an extensive closed circulatory system. Hemoglobin-containing blood moves anteriorly in a dorsal blood vessel and then is pumped by five pairs of hearts into a ventral blood vessel. As the ventral blood vessel takes blood toward the posterior regions of the worm's body, it gives off branches in every segment."

Recent genetic studies however, have proven that the unsegmented peanut worms ( Sipuncula) should be regarded members of the phylum Annelida, as well. These were previously regarded as a separate phylum due to the obvious differences from the segmented worms. So, the annelids now inlcude both segmented and unsegmented worms. They come in a huge variety of shapes and colors. Many of the worms live their lives buried in the sand while others stand up like flowers. Some are microscopic in size, others can reach a length of 3 meters. Taxonomy: The are more than 17000 different species of annelids existing today. Marine species are members of one of two classes, Polychaeta (Polychaete worms) or Hirudinea (leeches). A third class, Oligochaeta, includes the well-known earthworms."

Robertson, Iziko ©]Polychaete worm ( Pseudonereis variegata) collected by fisherman for bait, from mussel bed. [ photo H. Robertson, Iziko ©]Introduction Annelids are segmented worms. The well developed coelom (fluid filled body cavity) acts as a hydrostatic skeleton with muscles of the body walls acting on it. The body segments of an annelid are partitioned by internal divisions called septa, giving independence of movement to each of them. Segmentation and a tube within a tube body plan have resulted in relative specialisation of the digestive tract into a pharynx, a stomach, and accessory glands. Cephalisation or head formation is apparent in some annelids, most notably the polychaetes, and in these tentacles, palps and eyespots are common. There are over 15,000 species of annelids known globally and they are generally divided into three classes. The Polychaeta have separate sexes and posses soft projections called parapodia with many bristle-like chetae per segment, no clitellum (fused mid-body segment that secretes mucous), a distinct head (with eyes and tentacles), approximately 200 segments, with the majority being marine. The Oligochaeta or eathworms are hermaphroditic and posses no or few chaetae, no parapodia, a clitellum, no distinct head and 100-120 segments with very few marine forms."

They range in size from much less than 1 mm in length to more than 3 m. The smallest annelids described to date would appear to be Neotenotrocha (Dorvilleidae, Eunicida) reaching only a few hundred microns in length (Eibye-Jacobsen and Kristensen, 1994). Also within Eunicida may be found the largest of annelids. A preserved specimen of Eunice (Eunicidae) at the Museum of Natural History in Washington D. C. is close to 3 m in length and around 5 cm in diameter in its preserved and contracted condition. Some earthworms, such as the Giant Gippsland Earthworm ( Megascolides australis ), can reach 1 m in length. The largest leech in the world, Haementeria ghilianii, is found in South America and reaches more than 40 cm in length.2. Coelom Nearly all annelids have a fluid-filled cavity between the outer body wall and the gut, and this is referred to as a coelom (Figure 1). The coelom is often used as a storage area for gametes and acts as a hydrostatic skeleton for locomotion. The coelom (formed via schizocoely) is generally organized as a series of compartments divided by intersegmental septa."

Almost any invertebrate animal that is long and thin is called a \"\"worm\"\". We have even referred to ancestral organisms more resembling planula as \"\"worms\"\". Even caterpillars and beetle larvae are sometimes given that name. What distinguishes the annelids from most other worms is that they are segmented lophotrochozoas with a coelom. The septa that isolate one segment from another are thin sheets of mesodermally derived tissue termed peritoneum . This is a very important development as it allow for greater size. Segments are modular units as we will see, each with some organs repeated (mainly excretory and locomotory structures), however they are well integrated units and so segmentation then supports \"\"active\"\" life styles. Most segments are also united by the digestive, vascular, muscular and nervous systems, and so have little true autonomy. Anterior to the true segments lies the prostomium which carries the mouth, and posterior to them lies the pygidium, where the anus is located Annelids are bilaterally symmetrical and do not shed their body covering."

Segmentation is also called metamerism, which is a linear sequence of body segments. Segments each contain elements of such body systems as circulatory, nervous, and excretory tracts. Metamerism increases the way the body moves by allowing the effect of muscle contraction to be extremely relaxed, and it makes possible the development of greater mobility in general body organization. The phylum Annelida (segmented worms) is diverse, containing the earthworms, leeches, and marine worms. They are all triploblastic (containing three different segments) and bilaterally symmetrical. In addition, annelids have a body wall with both longitudinal and circular muscle layers,a complete digestive tract, a nervous system, a closed circulatory system, and an excretory system. There are three major classes of Annelida: Class Polychaeta- mostly marine worms or clam worms Class Hirudinea- the leeches (mostly freshwater) Class Oligochaeta- moslty freshwater and terrestrial worms like earthworms.

Standard Common Name Leeches Identification Leeches are segmented worms in the Subclass Hirudinea that are usually ectoparasitic. They belong to the Class Clitellata (along with earthworms, Subclass Oligochaeta) because of the presence of a clitellum, which is a swelling towards the head of the animal, where the gonads are located. However, unlike the oligochaetes, leeches do not show the clitellum all year. Instead, it only becomes visible during the breeding season. Leeches are bilaterally symmetrical, with thick muscular bodies. Usually they are dorso-ventrally (front to back) flattened and segmented, though the segments are not often seen. Some leeches are long and worm-like, others pear-shaped and broad. Most can vary considerably in shape both between the elongated and contracted state and between the starved and full condition."

Our kids play with them ( Figure 2 A, B) and dissect them in middle school biology, we fish with them, they crawl across our sidewalks and live in our flower pots. Despite this, their ecological and economic importance often goes unrecognized. Earthworms have several important ecological roles. Additionally, some species are used commercially for bait, animal feed, environmental remediation, and composting. Figure 1. Earthworms collected from a parking lot following a heavy rainfall. Photograph by William T. Crow, University of Florida. The term earthworm is commonly assigned to certain worms in the class Clitellata in the phylum Annelida.

The eldest child of Warren Beatty and Annette Bening, who revealed he was transgender at the age of 14, appears in a new public service announcement (PSA) urging New York to change its Medicaid regulation which excludes transgender people from accessing healthcare. Stephen, 21, appears confident and informed as he speaks about the problem, saying: ‘I grew up outside of New York, but I've always known I've wanted to move here for the city's vibrant artistic community. Scroll down for video Activist: Warren Beatty's transgender son Stephen Ira Beatty appears in a new PSA urging New York to change its Medicaid regulation which excludes transgender people from accessing healthcare‘As a trans person, I would hope that I'd be welcomed but many trans people aren't because we don't have the basic healthcare coverage we need to survive. ’The video has been produced by GLAAD and the Sylvia Rivera Law Project and features a number of transgender people along with the mother of a transgender woman. Medicaid is the United States health programme for families and individuals with low income and resources. This new PSA is opposing the New York State Medicaid which specifically excludes transgender people from accessing care. New York Governor Andrew Cuomo and New York State Health Commissioner Nirav Shah are being called upon to overturn the regulation. Well informed: His actor parents are well known activists and Stephen Ira has shown he has the insight and confidence to follow in their footsteps Stephen was born Kathlyn Elizabeth and has three younger siblings. Last year he made a video in which he talked openly about his transition from female to make, and listed his friends and peers as his greatest supporters."

By Gabrielle Olya November 29, 2017Matt Lauer was fired from NBC News on Nov. 29, following an employee complaint about “inappropriate sexual behavior in the workplace,” CNN reported. The announcement of his ousting was made on the NBC “Today” show by his former co-worker Savannah Guthrie. Though details of Lauer’s inappropriate behavior have not been made public, a source told CNN the incident occurred during his coverage of the Winter Olympics in Russia in 2014.“There are no words to express my sorrow and regret for the pain I have caused others by words and actions,” Lauer said in a public statement. “ To the people I have hurt, I am truly sorry…as I am writing this I realize the depth of the damage and disappointment I have left behind at home and at NBC.”Lauer is not alone in his dismissals — 2017 has seen a number of sexual harassment and assault allegations lead to numerous prominent men in entertainment getting famously fired. Matt Lauer Net Worth: $80 Million Before his firing, Matt Lauer was one of the highest-paid hosts on television, earning $25 million a year from the “Today” show, Variety reported. Lauer had been a co-host on the show since 1996. Lauer’s “Today” show contract was reported to extend through at least 2018 — it’s unclear if he will be paid out for the remainder of his contract, or if there is a clause in his contract that will allow NBC to get out of paying him. If so, Matt Lauer’s scandal will cost him millions.

"text": "\"American Beauty| Roger Ebert September 24, 1999 | 26Print Page Tweet\"\"American Beauty\"\" is a comedy because we laugh at the absurdity of the hero's problems. And a tragedy because we can identify with his failure--not the specific details, but the general outline. The movie is about a man who fears growing older, losing the hope of true love and not being respected by those who know him best. If you never experience those feelings, take out a classified ad. People want to take lessons from you. Lester Burnham, the hero of \"\"American Beauty,\"\" is played by Kevin Spacey as a man who is unloved by his daughter, ignored by his wife and unnecessary at work. \"\" I'll be dead in a year,\"\" he tells us in almost the first words of the movie. \"\" In a way, I'm dead already.\"\" The movie is the story of his rebellion. Advertisement We meet his wife, Carolyn ( Annette Bening ), so perfect her garden shears are coordinated with her footwear."

It’s official, Stephen Kings It remake has been confirmed!Stephen King's IT Remake – A Return to Absolute Terror Stephen King is known as the Master of Fear, and he has been terrifying people for a very long time with his writing talent. King has written such frightening books as Carrie, Cujo, Pet Sematary, and many more books that will give anyone who reads them nightmares. However, one of King’s books that really ranks high on the fear meter is a book about a clown gone bad called IT. In 1990, a television movie came out about this terrifying clown, and the movie starred Annette O’Toole, Seth Green, John Ritter, and Tim Curry as the infamous clown, Pennywise. Now over two decades later, Warner Brothers has decided to remake Stephen King’s chilling classic tale of good versus evil. Imagine the horror of seeing Pennywise the Clown on the big screen? Unlike the 1990 version, this remake of IT will be in theaters. When it comes to remakes, many people are against it because they are such huge fans of the original. Can anyone truly play Pennywise the Clown the way Tim Curry did?"

The U. S. thus inherited Texas's border dispute with Mexico; this quickly led to the Mexican-American War, during which the U. S. captured additional territory (known as the Mexican Cession of 1848), extending the nation's borders all the way to the Pacific Ocean. Texas claimed the eastern part of this new territory, comprising parts of present-day Colorado, Kansas, New Mexico, Texas, Wyoming and Oklahoma. The resulting dispute among Texas, the federal government, and New Mexico Territory was resolved in the Compromise of 1850, when much of these lands became parts of other territories of the United States in exchange for the U. S. federal government assuming the Texas Republic's $10 million in debt.

[ 1] Anglo-Americans soon became a majority in Texas and eventually became disillusioned with Mexican rule. Coahuila y Tejas, a Mexican state of which Texas was a constituent part after 1824, endorsed a plan for the gradual emancipation of the state's slaves in 1827, which angered many slaveholding settlers who had moved to Texas from the South. [ 2] For this and other reasons, Texas declared independence from Mexico, resulting in war with Mexico. In 1836, the fighting ended and Sam Houston became the first president of the Republic of Texas, elected on a platform that favored annexation to the United States. Initial Texan proposal In August 1837, Memucan Hunt, Jr., the Texan minister to the United States, submitted an annexation proposal to the Van Buren administration. ["

"text": "\"GOVERNORPhillip L. Fry GOVERNOR. The office of chief executive in Texas, if the earlier history of the area is considered, is older than the union of the American states and earlier by almost a century than the presidency of the United States. Although most historians settle for the year 1691 and the appointment of Domingo Terán de los Ríos as the beginning of Texas as a political entity, several support the year 1523, when the royal governor from Spain was Francisco de Garay. The long list of gobernadores, presidents, and governors provides a colorful index to the history of the state, and even though the basic duties of the chief executive have changed little since the Constitution of 1876, the personalities and politics of these officials have left their imprint on both the form and the function of state government. The following list of governors since the state was annexed to the United States, with dates of tenure in office, shows that most served more than the two-year term set by the Constitution of 1876. In 1972 voters approved the extension of the office to a four-year term that took effect in 1975. The office of governor of Texas as it exists today was established by Article IV, Section 1 of the Constitution of 1876. As a state office it was first established by the Constitution of 1845 and superseded the office of president of the Republic of Texas. The governor was elected and served for two years. His salary was set by the constitution at $4,000 yearly, and since 1856 the governor has had the use of the executive mansion."

"text": "\"Arts & Humanities History Why did people oppose the annexation of Texas?1 following 8 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: The opposition to annexing Texas was largely found in the North, esp. because of concerns about slavery. But there were other reasons for which the national Whig party opposed annexation efforts. Summary of reasons: 1) it would enhance the slave power (upsetting the slave state/free state balance) 2) it would bring war with Mexico and possibly England 3) it amounted to a landgrab that was counter to U. S. principles of democracy 4) unconsitutional - the U. S. Constitution disallowed annexation (at least in the manner proposed) 5) annexation was a threat to national unity --since the Northern sentiment against it was so strong (see reason #1!) Again, not all opponents raised exactly the same objections. So here is a look at some leaders, and their reasons (with key documents/statements. ( Note that there were TWO great periods of debate about annexation -- the first in 1836-38.) William Ellery Channing \"\"In 1837 he published Thoughts on the Evils of a Spirit of Conquest, and on Slavery: A Letter on the Annexation of Texas to the United States, addressed to Henry Clay, and arguing that the Texan revolt from Mexican rule was largely the work of land-speculators, and of those who resolved \"\"to throw Texas open to slave-holders and slaves\"\"; that the results of annexation must be war with Mexico, embroiling the United States with England and other European powers, and at home the extension and perpetuation of slavery, not alone in Texas but in other territories which the United States, once started at conquest, would force into the Union.\"\" http://www.1911encyclopedia.org/William_... John Quincy Adams (former President) Led the anti-annexation fight in the House of Representatives in the 1830s. In fact, from June 16 to July 9,1838 (the end of that session of Congress) he spoke all against the annexation of Texas all morning, every morning!"

"text": "\"Manifest Destiny2007 Schools Wikipedia Selection. Related subjects: North American History This painting (circa 1872) by John Gast called American Progress is an allegorical representation of Manifest Destiny. Here Columbia, a personification of the United States, leads civilization westward with American settlers, stringing telegraph wire as she travels and carrying a school book. The different economic activities of the pioneers are highlighted and, especially, the changing forms of transportation. The American Indians and wild animals flee. Manifest Destiny was a phrase that expressed the belief that the United States had a mission to expand, spreading its form of democracy and freedom. Advocates of Manifest Destiny believed that expansion was not only good, but that it was obvious (\"\" manifest\"\") and certain (\"\" destiny\"\"). Originally a political catch phrase of the 19th century, \"\"Manifest Destiny\"\" eventually became a standard historical term, often used as a synonym for the territorial expansion of the United States across North America towards the Pacific Ocean. The phrase \"\"Manifest Destiny\"\" was first used primarily by Jacksonian Democrats in the 1840s to promote the annexation of much of what is now the Western United States (the Oregon Territory, the Texas Annexation, and the Mexican Cession). The term was revived in the 1890s with Republican supporters as a theoretical justification for U. S. expansion outside of North America."

In 1881 the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railroad Company extended its line from Greenville to Mc Kinney, passing through land owned by the brothers. The name \"\"Wilson's Switch\"\" was commonly used to designate the area. When residents applied for a post office branch, however, they learned that the name Wilson was already being used. The community then submitted the name \"\"Princeton\"\" in honor of Prince Dowlin, a landowner and promoter of the town. This name was accepted, and a post office was established in 1888.

"text": "\"The flag of Texas Texas secession movements principally focus on the secession of Texas during the American Civil War and the activities of organizations that have existed since the 1990s. The United States Constitution does not address secession of states and the issue was a topic of debate from after the Revolutionary War up until the Civil War, when the Supreme Court ruled, in Texas v. White, that states cannot secede. Texas claimed to be a sovereign state for nine years prior to the negotiated annexation with the United States, but its claim was not recognized by Mexico, nor did Texas actually control the entirety of its claimed territory. This history has affected the state's politics ever since, including its standing in the Confederacy in the Civil War to education and even tourism in the 20th century. Modern secession efforts have existed in the state at least since the 1990s, focusing first on the Republic of Texas organization founded by Richard Lance Mc Laren and later on the Texas Nationalist Movement headed by Daniel Miller.

S. states to secede from the union began shortly after the American Revolutionary War. The United States Constitution does not address secession. Each of the colonies originated by separate grants from the British Crown and had evolved relatively distinct political and cultural institutions prior to national independence. Craig S. Lerner has written that the Constitution's Supremacy Clause weighs against a right of secession, but that the Republican Guarantee Clause can be interpreted to indicate that the federal government has no right to keep a state from leaving as long as it maintains a republican form of government. [ 1]The question remained open in the decades before the Civil War."

"text": "Instructor: Matthew Hill Manifest Destiny was a term coined by John O'Sullivan in 1845. It encompassed the idea that the United States was destined to occupy all the land between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The Origins of Manifest Destiny For some, the concept of Manifest Destiny was a blessing, but for others, it was a curse. It was rooted in the assumption that the United States was destined to occupy the territory between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The roots of Manifest Destiny can be stretched back to the colonial era. John Winthrop had proclaimed that America shall be 'a city upon a hill' to suggest that the continent was destined for greatness. The infamous Benjamin Franklin had claimed during the American Revolution that 'we can begin the world anew' by reordering the nature of government. These early sentiments were the precursor to Manifest Destiny and certainly fit within its framework. In a succession of events and treaties, the U. S. acquired the Ohio Valley, which extended the nation to the Mississippi River, followed by the Louisiana Purchase in 1803, which extended the border to the Rocky Mountains. In 1819, Florida was added, but the real changed occurred with events in Texas."

Image available on the Internet and included in accordance with Title 17 U. S. C. Section 107REPUBLIC OF TEXAS. In the fall of 1835 many Texans, both Anglo-American colonists and Tejanos, concluded that liberalism and republicanism in Mexico, as reflected in its Constitution of 1824, were dead. The dictatorship of President Antonio López de Santa Anna, supported by rich landowners, had seized control of the governments and subverted the constitution. As dissension and discord mounted in Texas, both on the military front and at the seat of the provisional government of the Consultation at San Felipe, the colonists agreed that another popular assembly was needed to chart a course of action. On December 10, 1835, the General Council of the provisional government issued a call for an election on February 1, 1836, to choose forty-four delegates to assemble on March 1 at Washington-on-the-Brazos. These delegates represented the seventeen Texas municipalities and the small settlement at Pecan Point on the Red River. The idea of independence from Mexico was growing. The Consultation sent Branch T. Archer, William H. Wharton, and Stephen F. Austin to the United States to solicit men, money, supplies, and sympathy for the Texas cause."

Follow 6 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Florida Territory Becomes Our 27th State March 3, 1845 England wanted to expand its colonies and began to threaten Florida in the 1700s, attacking St. Augustine many times. England, France and Spain were all fighting with each other in several parts of the world in the pursuit of growing their colonies. This conflict was known as both the Seven Years War and the French and Indian Wars. In 1763 the Treaty of Paris was signed by England, France and Spain and it resulted in England gaining the Florida Territory. But when England formally recognized the colonies' independence (as the United States) in 1783, the Florida Territory was returned to Spain without clear definition of its boundaries. When we made the Louisiana Purchase from France, Florida was still without clear boundaries! How did our government finally get Florida and make it our 27th state?

"text": "\"Texas Dividing into Five States Was Texas authorized to divide into five states?7Claim: A clause in the document annexing Texas to the United States allowed for Texas to be divided into five different states. Status: Partly true. Origins: After several years of contentious debate, in 1845 the United States’ various political factions finally reached enough of a consensus to agree that the benefits of annexing Texas (nominally an independent republic ever since it had been wrested from Mexico after the decisive 1836 battle at San Jacinto, although neither Texas nor Mexico ever accepted the treaties signed a few weeks later) outweighed the pitfalls. As T. R. Fehrenbach noted in his history of Texas, the nascent republic was ill-suited to maintain itself as a sovereign nation, and the presence of such a tenuous political entity in the midst of North America posed a threat to the ambitions and interests of the United States: Sam Houston’s republic was a struggling frontier community of less than forty thousand people; it was a series of plantations and farms carved out of the Southern forests along the river bottoms extending up from the Gulf, with an utterly colonial economy. Most Texans were subsistence farmers, with a little barter on the side. The planters exported their cotton against imported goods; the balance of trade was yet adverse. The largest towns were frontier outposts with mud streets and at most a few thousand assorted people. There was no money economy, nor any money. There were no banks or improved roads or organized schools. There was no industry — everything from pins to powder had to be imported from the United States."

Usually, it is implied that the territory and population being annexed is the smaller, less peripheral or weaker of the two merging entities. It can also imply a certain measure of coercion, expansionism or unilateralism on the part of the stronger of the merging entities. Because of this, more positive terms like political union or reunification are sometimes preferred. Annexation differs from cession and amalgamation , because unlike cession where territory is given or sold through treaty, or amalgamation where both sides are asked if they agree with the merge, annexation is an unilateral act where territory is seized and held by one state and made legitimate by the recognition of the international community. During World War II the use of annexation deprived whole populations of the safeguards provided by international laws governing military occupations. Changes were introduced to international law through the Fourth Geneva Convention that makes it much more difficult for a state to bypass international law through the use of annexation. Annexation and international law after 1948The Fourth Geneva Convention (GCIV) of 1949, emphasised an important international law. Protocol I (1977): \"\"Protocol Additional to the Geneva Conventions of 12 August 1949, and relating to the Protection of Victims of International Armed Conflicts\"\" has additional articles which cover military occupation, but many countries including the United States are not signatory to this additional protocol. Examples of annexation after 1948Ogaden In 1954, former British Ogaden (a Somali Region) was annexed by Abyssinia."

"text": "2001 Categories & Criteria (version 3.1)Contents Introduction Preamble Definitions The Categories The Criteria for Critically Endangered, Endangered and Vulnerable I. INTRODUCTIONThe IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria are intended to be an easily and widely understood system for classifying species at high risk of global extinction. The general aim of the system is to provide an explicit, objective framework for the classification of the broadest range of species according to their extinction risk. However, while the Red List may focus attention on those taxa at the highest risk, it is not the sole means of setting priorities for conservation measures for their protection. Extensive consultation and testing in the development of the system strongly suggest that it is robust across most organisms. However, it should be noted that although the system places species into the threatened categories with a high degree of consistency, the criteria do not take into account the life histories of every species. Hence, in certain individual cases, the risk of extinction may be under- or over-estimated. Before 1994 the more subjective threatened species categories used in IUCN Red Data Books and Red Lists had been in place, with some modification, for almost 30 years. Although the need to revise the categories had long been recognized (Fitter and Fitter 1987), the current phase of development only began in 1989 following a request from the IUCN Species Survival Commission (SSC) Steering Committee to develop a more objective approach. The IUCN Council adopted the new Red List system in 1994. The IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria have several specific aims:to provide a system that can be applied consistently by different people;to improve objectivity by providing users with clear guidance on how to evaluate different factors which affect the risk of extinction;to provide a system which will facilitate comparisons across widely different taxa;to give people using threatened species lists a better understanding of how individual species were classified."

The men named their new riverfront enterprise the \"\"Covington Company,\"\" in honor of their friend, Gen. Leonard Covington, an American officer who once trained troops in the area and was killed in the War of 1812 at Crysler's Farm. [ 1]The investors prepared a plat for the new city that was approximately five blocks wide by five blocks deep. The platted streets lined up with the streets of Cincinnati across the Ohio River, symbolically tying the future of the fledging city to its larger neighbor to the north. The first five streets, running north to south, were named for Kentucky's first five governors: Shelby, Garrard, Greenup, Scott, and Madison. In February 1815, the Kentucky General Assembly incorporated the land as the town of Covington. ["

Each DPX file represents a single image with a single component, e.g., luma, or multiple components, e.g., red, green, blue; or Cb, Y, Cr (chroma-luma data). Many variations in multiple component data are supported. DPX images may be produced by scanning film or by using a camera that produces a DPX output. DPX is intended to carry picture data; its developers assumed that sound would be carried in separate formats, e.g., WAVE files, and this is the general practice. Nevertheless, a few organizations scan an image area large enough to include optical soundtracks and at least one software application ( AEO Light) can convert this image data to sound.

"text": "Please support our sponsors ... ISO/IEC 27001:2013 — Information technology — Security techniques — Information security management systems — Requirements (second edition)Introduction ISO/IEC 27001 formally specifies an Information Security Management System (ISMS), a suite of activities concerning the management of information risks (called ‘information security risks’ in the standard). The ISMS is an overarching management framework through which the organization identifies, analyzes and addresses its information risks. The ISMS ensures that the security arrangements are fine-tuned to keep pace with changes to the security threats, vulnerabilities and business impacts - an important aspect in such a dynamic field, and a key advantage of ISO27k’s flexible risk-driven approach as compared to, say, PCI-DSS. The standard covers all types of organizations ( e.g. commercial enterprises, government agencies, non-profits), all sizes (from micro-businesses to huge multinationals), and all industries or markets ( e.g. retail, banking, defense, healthcare, education and government). This is clearly a very wide brief. ISO/IEC 27001 does not formally mandate specific information security controls since the controls that are required vary markedly across the wide range of organizations adopting the standard. The information security controls from ISO/IEC 27002 are noted in annex A to ISO/IEC 27001, rather like a menu. Organizations adopting ISO/IEC 27001 are free to choose whichever specific information security controls are applicable to their particular information risks, drawing on those listed in the menu and potentially supplementing them with other a la carte options (sometimes known as extended control sets). As with ISO/IEC 27002, the key to selecting applicable controls is to undertake a comprehensive assessment of the organization’s information risks, which is one vital part of the ISMS. Furthermore, management may elect to avoid, transfer or accept information risks rather than mitigate them through controls - a risk treatment decision within the risk management process."

While excelling in such arts as poetry, dance and sculpture, Hawaiians also established a well-developed judicial system and instituted complex scientific and agricultural methods. But, who are Native Hawaiians? Congress defines “Native Hawaiian” as “any individual who is a descendant of the aboriginal people who, prior to 1778, occupied and exercised sovereignty in the area that now constitutes the State of Hawai‘i.” ( U. S. Public Law 103-150)However, Native Hawaiians are so much more. We define ourselves by our relationships with each other, our ancestors and our land. Without these bonds of interconnectedness, we are incomplete. Being Hawaiian involves nurturing and honoring these ties.

The chapter then considers future trends before concluding with a list of sources of further information. Key wordshygiene regulation; legislation; food business operators; HACCP1.1. Introduction European law attaches prime importance to the safety of food products. To live up to this requirement, the food industry needs to apply quality management systems. The industry is achieving this. Independent auditing of these systems to demonstrate their performance is becoming increasingly common. Also, retail organizations are more and more demanding on this: for producers of their private labels, they have developed standards which need to be fulfilled by their suppliers before they are allowed to supply private label products."

"text": "Risk owners vs. asset owners in ISO 27001:2013Author: Dejan Kosutic The 2013 revision of ISO 27001 introduced a new concept: the risk owner. Since this concept brought quite a lot of confusion with information security practitioners, here’s an explanation of what the risk owner is, and whether the concept of asset owner from the old 2005 revision of ISO 27001 is still valid. What is the asset owner, according to ISO 27001? Both the old 2005 and new 2013 revisions of ISO 27001 have the concept of asset owner as a control in Annex A – this is basically nothing but determining who is responsible for each asset in your company. In terms of information security, assets are not only the information in electronic and paper form, but also software, hardware, services, people, facilities, and everything else that provides value to an organization. Why is this asset ownership important? Because if no one is responsible for an asset then no one will take care of it – only by strictly defining who is responsible for each document, each server, each external service, etc. will you make sure that each of those assets is properly protected and managed; not having owners of the assets would mean anarchy. Asset-based risk assessment Where the 2005 and 2013 revisions are different is that 2005 required the identification of asset owners both during the risk assessment process and as control A.7.1.2 in Annex A, whereas the 2013 revision doesn’t have this requirement in the risk assessment process and only as control A.8.1.2 in Annex A. What’s more, the 2013 revision does not require so-called asset-based risk assessment, which would identify the risks based on assets, threats and vulnerabilities – according to ISO27001:2013, your company can identify risks using some other (less complicated) method. However, my opinion is that asset-based risk assessment will continue to be a dominant method for risk assessment – especially if you choose to apply controls A.8.1.1 (identification of assets) and A.8.1.2 (assigning the owners to those assets)."

Background information Birth name Andrea Mc Ardle Born November 5, 1963 (age 54)Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USOrigin Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USOccupation (s) Singer, actress Years active 1970–present Andrea Mc Ardle (born November 5, 1963) is an American singer and actress best known for originating the role of Annie in the Broadway musical Annie. Contents [ hide ]1 Career2 Stage work3 Awards and honors4 References5 External links Career [ edit]Mc Ardle was born in Philadelphia. While studying dance as a child, she was spotted by a talent agent who got her work in a number of television commercials, which led to her two-and-a-half year stint on the soap opera Search for Tomorrow. She also appeared on Al Alberts Showcase, a local televised talent show in Philadelphia. Mc Ardle's break came in early 1977 when she was pulled from the chorus of orphans to replace Kristen Vigard, the original Annie in the Broadway musical Annie, during rehearsals. The show was a critical and commercial smash, and she became the youngest performer ever to be nominated for a Tony Award as Best Lead Actress in a Musical. She lost to co-star Dorothy Loudon —who played Miss Hannigan—but did receive the Theater World and Outer Critics' Circle Awards for her performance. In April 1978, she opened in London's West End production. She appeared several times on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson in 1977-79, on one occasion accompanied by Liberace."

The character, however, originated in a comic strip -- Little Orphan Annie, which ran during the depression. The character of Annie has always been a favorite with audiences, and combined with an extremely charming and catchy score by Charles Strouse, Thomas Meehan and Martin Charnin, the musical is endearing. Songs like \"\"Tomorrow,\"\" \"\"Maybe\"\" and \"\"You're Never Fully Dressed Without a Smile\"\" have worked their way into the public consciousness -- especially \"\"It's Hard Knock Life,\"\" which has the distinction of having been sampled in a popular rap song in 1999. The original Broadway cast recording, starring Andrea Mc Ardle as Annie and Reid Shelton as Daddy Warbucks, is quite good. It contains songs that were not included in the 1982 movie version, such as \"\"N. Y. C.,\"\" an exuberant ode to the city. Fans of the movie may be discouraged by different recordings than the ones with which they're familiar, but the performances here are just as strong, if not stronger. Remastered in 1998.

Anna is the Latin variant of the Hebrew girl’s name Hannah (meaning “God has favored me”). The name Hannah comes from the Bible (1 Samuel 1:2). She is the mother of the great Israeli prophet Samuel. Unable to bear children “because the Lord closed her womb,” Hannah prays to God for a son promising to “give him to the Lord all the days of his life.” By the ‘grace’ of God, He eventually ‘favors’ Hannah with a son, and hence the meaning of the name. In Latinate form, the name became Anna, losing the original 'H' at both ends. Anna also appears briefly in the New Testament (Gospel of Luke) belonging to a devoutly religious prophetess who recognized the baby Jesus as the Messiah. It is often thought, and still believed in Christian tradition, that Anna was the mother of the Virgin Mary (and hence the grandmother of Jesus), but this is not supported in the Bible. The name Anna has been in use since the Middle Ages when many French nuns adopted the name."

"text": "\"ABBA: Where Are They Now? By Andrea Miller | 09/24/2010Facebook Twitter Stumble Google+ Save Where are the members of ABBA now? This Swedish pop supergroup made up of two married couples was one of the most popular bands in the world in the mid to late-1970s with such hits as \"\"Dancing Queen,\"\" \"\"Take a Chance on Me\"\" and \"\"Fernando.\"\" In addition to their musical success, they were also known for their forays into feature films, including \"\"ABBA: The Movie\"\" and \"\"Mamma Mia.\"\" Today, the four original members of Abba, Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson, Agnetha Fältskog and Anni-Frid Lyngstad, enjoy varying levels of success. Björn Ulvaeus got divorced from fellow ABBA member Agnetha Fältskog in June 1980. The next year, he married current wife Lena Källersjö with whom he has two children. Throughout the decade, he has been deeply involved with the staging and music for the musical \"\"Mamma Mia,\"\" based on ABBA's music. Benny Andersson divorced fellow ABBA member Anni-Frid Lyngstad in 1981. Days later, he married current wife Mona Nörklit with whom he has one child."

AUDIENCE SCORE57%liked it Average Rating: 3/5User Ratings: 170,465Movie Info This made-for-TV adaptation of the hit Broadway musical (which was, in turn, based on the popular comic strip by Harold Gray) stars Alicia Morton as Annie, who lives in an orphanage run by the ill-tempered Miss Hannigan (Kathy Bates). Like the rest of the children, Annie doesn't like the orphanage and hates Miss Hannigan, so she's excited when famous and eccentric billionaire Daddy Warbucks (Victor Garber) picks Annie as the lucky orphan who gets to spend Christmas at his mansion. Warbucks is charmed by Annie's spunk and good spirits and is eager to adopt her, but Annie is convinced that one day her real parents will come back to claim her. Eager to make her happy, Warbucks offers a sizable cash reward to whomever can find Annie's mother and father; Miss Hannigan, seeing the possibility of an easy payday, concocts a scheme by which her brother Rooster (Alan Cumming) and his floozy girlfriend Lily (Kristin Chenoweth) will pose as Annie's long-lost folks. Andrea Mc Ardle, who originated the role of Annie on Broadway, has a supporting role as the Star-to-Be. The musical was previously filmed in 1982, with John Huston in the director's chair.

February 5, 2018 | Full Review…John Leonard New York Magazine/Vulture Top Critic A tuneful, joyous musical for the family. January 2, 2011 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…Michael Scheinfeld Common Sense Media It's tough to ruin tunes like 'You're Never Fully Dressed Without A Smile,' 'I Think I'm Gonna Like It Here' and 'It's A Hard-Knock Life.'

The character, however, originated in a comic strip -- Little Orphan Annie, which ran during the depression. The character of Annie has always been a favorite with audiences, and combined with an extremely charming and catchy score by Charles Strouse, Thomas Meehan and Martin Charnin, the musical is endearing. Songs like \"\"Tomorrow,\"\" \"\"Maybe\"\" and \"\"You're Never Fully Dressed Without a Smile\"\" have worked their way into the public consciousness -- especially \"\"It's Hard Knock Life,\"\" which has the distinction of having been sampled in a popular rap song in 1999. The original Broadway cast recording, starring Andrea Mc Ardle as Annie and Reid Shelton as Daddy Warbucks, is quite good. It contains songs that were not included in the 1982 movie version, such as \"\"N. Y. C.,\"\" an exuberant ode to the city. Fans of the movie may be discouraged by different recordings than the ones with which they're familiar, but the performances here are just as strong, if not stronger. Remastered in 1998.

Examples of reconnaissance include patrolling by troops, ships or submarines, manned/unmanned aircraft, satellites, or by setting up covert observation posts.

Cfa Cwa A humid subtropical climate is a zone of climate characterized by hot, humid summers and mild winters. These climates normally lie on the southeast side of all continents, generally between latitudes 25° and 35° and are located poleward from adjacent tropical climates, and south of temperate climates. While many subtropical climates tend to be on or near a coast, in some cases they extend inland, most notably in China and the United States (US). The subtropical climate was created in the 1966 update of the Koppen climate classification. The Trewartha climate classification sought to redefine middle latitude climates into smaller zones (the original Köppen system grouped all middle latitude climates into a single zone, which was the major criticism). Under the Trewartha system, climates are termed subtropical when they have monthly mean air temperatures higher than 10 °C (50 °F) for eight or more months a year and at least one month with mean temperature below 18 °C (64.4 °F). It classifies humid subtropical climates as typically occupying the southernmost portions of the temperate zone from 23.5 to 35.0 north and south latitude, and they often have a mean temperature of 7 °C (45 °F) or higher in the coldest month. [ 1]Rainfall often shows a summer peak, especially where monsoons are well developed, as in Southeast Asia and Florida (US). Other areas have a more uniform or varying rainfall cycles, but consistently lack any predictably dry summer months."

It is the state's second-largest city, with a population just ahead of that of Bunbury. Mandurah's central business district is located on the Mandurah Estuary, which is an outlet for the Peel Inlet and Harvey Estuary. The city takes its name from a Noongar word meaning \"\"meeting place\"\" or \"\"trading place\"\". A townsite for Mandurah was laid out in 1831, two years after the establishment of the Swan River Colony, but attracted few residents. Until the post-war boom of the 1950s and 1960s it was little more than a small fishing village. In subsequent years, Mandurah's reputation for boating and fishing attracted a large number of retirees, especially to the canal developments in the city's south."

With Mediterranean conditions in the south western, tropical conditions in the north and north east, temperate in the east and arid in the remaining majority- you can be sure to witness a huge range of weather as your travel across and around the continent. Almost 90% of Australiaâs population lives on the 34,218 kilometers of coastline, with all but one of the countryâs capital cities lying on the vast coast line (the exception being the nations capital of Canberra . ) WESTERN AUSTRALIAStarting with Perth on the West Coast is where we can begin with the overview of Australian weather. Perth is home to what could be described as the most enviable weather in the whole country. The summers, December to February are long and hot (at time they are scorching, known to reach above and over 40 degrees in the very height of the summer.) Rainfall is at an absolute minimum during this period and temperatures are consistently high. Pert is subject to water restriction rules in which residents can only water their gardens after 6pm and on selected days of the week depending on their house number. This is partly due to the decreasing winter rainfall as well. When previously Perthâs dams would be filled up during the winter months, the effect of weather change has resulted in winters becoming increasingly drier as well."

Already home to almost 17,500,000 people, Beijing will temporarily increase in size during the 2008 Summer Olympics. Beijing is home to a humid continental climate which is influenced by the local East Asian monsoons. A humid continental climate is characterised by large variation between seasons and variable weather patterns. These types of climates generally occur over large areas of land masses, such as China and weather conditions tend to increase in extremity the further in land that you move. Beijing experiences distinct seasons, which should make it easy to decide when you want to visit. If you are a fan of the snow and subzero temperatures, head to Beijing in the winter months of December to February. Want to experience a sandstorm? Then spring is your time to go. If you want Beijingâs best weather conditions then head there in late summer and early autumn, as these times see the capital with its most comfortable weather."

While it may rain more days out of the year, the rainfall is not very heavy.

Averaged over both of these states, 1950 is clearly the wettest year since adequate records became available circa 1885. Queensland recorded a statewide average rainfall of around 1,125 millimetres (44.3 in) as against a mean since 1885 of around 640 millimetres (25.2 in), [1] whilst New South Wales recorded around 930 millimetres (36.6 in) as against an instrumental mean around 520 millimetres (20.5 in).

A major cyclone [4] in the third week of January gave substantial rain to most of New South Wales and caused high winds that killed seven people, but it was not until February that the pattern of abnormal rainfall over NSW and Queensland became firmly established. Especially heavy rainfall occurred over the southwest of New South Wales (extending into most of Victoria) during February, but it was in March, normally at the end of the wet season, that the heaviest rainfall occurred. The monsoon trough, which is normally situated around Cape York Peninsula, moved to a latitude near Boulia. At the beginning of that month some of the worst flooding on record occurred over the Barron and Herbert Rivers, and with a major tropical cyclone following the contour of the Queensland coast for over a week from 4 to 11 March and then moving inland, the heavy rain extended deep into the interior of Queensland and even to that part of South Australia northeast of the Flinders Ranges. The flood on the Diamantina River was measured as the highest ever recorded, and Windorah on the lower Cooper recorded for the entire month 442 millimetres (17.4 in), which is about 145 percent of its mean annual rainfall."

Austria 's capital has warm and pleasant summers and winters with cold temperatures that can drop below freezing. On average, 2,000 hours of sunshine are registered annually, and because of the city's continental location away from any large bodies of water, it can actually get quite hot at times during the summer. Vienna is subject to both a warm, dry climate and also a raw Alpine climate so the temperature and weather conditions tend toward extremes. Higher than average temperatures or even large drops in temperature can take place at any time of year. The city is set on the banks of the mighty Danube River, which continues its trajectory through the heart of two other European capitals, Bratislava and Budapest. An iconic city with a wealth of history, Vienna is one of Europe's major cultural and artistic capitals. The former home of people such as Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Strauss and Freud, Vienna is sometimes referred to as the \"\"City of Music\"\" or the \"\"City of Dreams.\"\" It used to be the bastion of the wealthy and powerful Habsburg Dynasty and, as a reminder of this period of sheer splendour and prosperity, the city is still home to several imperial palaces."

"text": "\"The Best Time to Visit Hobart Over the comings months, Experience Oz will be running a series answering the frequently-asked question by potential travellers “When is the best time to visit...?” for some of Australia's best and most popular travel destinations. Here, we look at Hobart, Tasmania. This article in a nutshell: The summer holiday period (December-January) labeled the best time to visit Hobart Season famous for its large number of annual events (Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race, Taste Festival, New Years' Celebrations on the waterfront)Average summer temperatures for Hobart: Max 21°C (69.8°F), Min 11°C (51.8°F)Essential spots to visit in the city: Mt Wellington, Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary, Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens, Maritime Museum of Tasmania, Cascade Gardens and Brewery Top destinations for outings/day tours/short trips from Hobart: MONA Art Gallery, Bruny Island, Battery Point, Coal River Valley Hobart is a city that walks a delicate, charming line between combining the old with the new and the green with the blue all into one highly enjoyable package. With its seaside location and relatively laid-back atmosphere, Tasmania 's capital city is renowned Australia-wide as a destination that makes for a great getaway from the mainland, yet it has also begun to receive an increasing amount of international attention over the past few years for a number of reasons. Having recently been dubbed one of the world's Top 10 Destinations on the Rise by travel giant Trip Advisor as well as making the list of Lonely Planet's Top 10 Cities to Visit in 2013, Hobart is getting its share of exposure in the global spotlight that would normally fall by default on its larger northern brothers such as Sydney and Melbourne. Hobart, Tasmania panorama There are multiple factors at play here; while the city's cosmopolitan blend of boutique shopping, colonial style architecture and great local produce from its many verdant surrounding regions all play a large part in giving Hobart its charm, it's the establishment and worldwide publicity of the Museum of Old and New Art (MONA) and its striking, controversial artistic offerings that has helped capture the attention of international travel junkies. Couple all of these with striking natural features such as the beautifully looming peak of Mount Wellington which watches benevolently over the city and the nearby wildlife haven of Bruny Island, and it's easy to see why Hobart offers such an appealing, reasonably affordable locale for a holiday. For international travellers looking at Hobart, however, the city's relative isolation as a capital and sheer distance from many countries can sometimes be seen as an obstacle to overcome. As an example, given that it takes a total of around 18 hours in the best possible scenario when attempting to fly from Los Angeles to Hobart – with multiple stopovers sometimes a necessity – and it makes it even more important for visitors to choose the right time of year for them to maximise their enjoyment of their trip to the place that puts the “down” in “downunder”."

"text": "Marcelina Morfin Updated: 28 February 2018Located in the Southwest, Arizona is steeped in history and beautifully diverse landscapes. A combination of these two elements are found throughout the state in the form of historical, scenic towns that will truly impress. From former mining town gems, to desert beauties and mountain charmers, here are ten of the most beautiful towns in Arizona. Bisbee Established in 1880, Bisbee is a charming town with a mining history located in Southern Arizona. Once known as ‘The Queen Of The Copper Camps’, the present-day area is home to a lovely community among the Mule Mountains, notably popular with artists and retired folk.

"text": "\"Arizona State Climate and Landforms Travelers to Arizona will notice great diversity in both its climate and topography. It is comprised of three major land areas including the Colorado Plateau, the Transition Zone and the Basin and Ridge Region. While Arizona is generally thought of as an arid, desert land, there are parts of the state where you can experience the best of all four seasons. Colorado Plateau The Colorado Plateau, in northern Arizona, is home to the San Francisco Mountains, the Grand Canyon and the Colorado River. Humphrey's Peak, at over 12,600 feet, is Arizona's tallest peak and located near Flagstaff. While most of the Colorado Plateau is desert-like, the mountainous areas of the region grow various types of vegetation and forest trees. Famous landforms in this region include the Petrified Forest, which began forming more than 225 million years ago from numerous volcanic eruptions. The Black Mesa is a raised mountainous area, yet has a flat, table-like top. It is black in color due to the many coal seams that run through it. The Painted Desert spans more than 160 miles and was named for the rainbow of colors it exhibits throughout its natural landscape."

"text": "50 Top Paying Healthcare Careers Tweet Share There’s no argument that healthcare is one of the fastest growing careers in the United States. According to the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), jobs in healthcare are expected to grow at an astonishing rate of 23% job growth over the next decade, with an estimated 974,000 new jobs expected. This rapid growth is due, in part, to greater health insurance accessibility and the maturing of the large Baby Boomer population. Hospitals, health systems, private practices, long-term care facilities are looking to boost their services with qualified, licensed clinical and support (or ancillary) staff. Colleges and universities, recognizing the need to educate qualified clinicians and ancillary personnel, are increasingly offering online courses and degrees for those interested, or already employed, in healthcare. Online, accredited degrees, allow students to quickly move into the work force; and, provides currently employed clinicians or healthcare workers easier paths to advance their education to the next level. Most, but not all, healthcare careers can be attained through accredited, online education. Salary ranges for healthcare professions vary depending on the degree, area of study and licensure. Employment and earnings (not including physicians) for those working in healthcare range from $20,000 to $102,950 annually and requires individuals with diverse educational and technical backgrounds to qualify for positions in the clinical and non-clinical healthcare setting. Educational Degrees and Accreditation Requirements Depending on the career path, students should be aware of requirements for specific healthcare positions."

The HR Services Division has been providing compensation consulting and support services to Texas schools for over 30 years. This report presents a summary of the findings and recommendations from this project with supporting data. Purpose of Study This study was conducted to objectively examine the competitive job market and determine whether pay practices are internally fair and externally competitive. The primary goals for the project included the following: evaluate competitive market prices for key benchmark jobs; determine whether employees are being paid within an appropriate market range; determine whether jobs are placed correctly in the pay structure; build or align district pay structures with the competitive job market; develop an affordable implementation plan with recommended pay adjustments; and review and recommend administrative guidelines for managing pay systems. All employee groups were included in this study, including: Teachers (and related instructional staff); Administrative/Professional; Clerical/Paraprofessional; and Auxiliary Project Activities In consultation with the district, a work plan was developed to complete the study. HR Services consultants completed the following work tasks through the course of the review: Initial planning and data collection Consultants conferred with district administrators to ensure a clear understanding of the concerns, problems, and objectives for the study. Pay data was collected on personnel employed at the start of the project. Assess competitive pay levels for common jobs The competitive job market group was approved by the district."

Among the tech workers who anticipate changing employers in 2014, 68 percent listed more compensation as their reason for leaving. Other factors include improved working conditions (48 percent), more responsibility (35 percent) and the possibility of losing their job (20 percent). The poll, conducted online between Oct. 14 and Nov. 29 last year, surveyed 17,236 tech professionals. Fifty-four percent of the workers polled weren’t content with their compensation. This figure is down from 2012’s survey, when 57 percent of respondents were displeased with their pay. [ Further reading: The best TV streaming services ]The decrease in salary satisfaction could mean companies will face IT staff retention challenges this year, since 65 percent of respondents said they’re confident they can find a new, better position in 2014. This dissatisfaction over pay comes even though the survey, released Wednesday, showed that the average tech salary rose 2.6 percent in 2013 to US$87,811 and that more companies gave merit raises. The main reason for last year’s bump in pay, according to 45 percent of respondents, was a merit raise. In comparison, the average tech salary was $85,619 in 2012 and 40 percent of those polled said they received a merit raise."

A Computer Aided Designer or (CAD) uses a computer to design virtual objects and images like two dimensional figures or three dimensional objects. Computer Aided Design can have differing terminology based on the industry, like, Computer Aided Industrial Design, Computer Aided Styling, Computer Aided Manufacturing or Computer Aided Engineering. The role of a Computer Aided Designer is to create audio and details in construction, manufacturing, structural, mechanical, architectural and other fields using Computer Aided Designs and Drafting. A Computer Aided Designer creates design plan for machinery and building a wide range of engineering, manufacturing and construction industries. They do work on surface modeling which means they work in two dimensional designs and solid modeling, i.e., three-dimensional designs. Surface modeling draws flat representation of a product. In solid modeling, engineers can take a virtual view of inside of the product, building, structure or machinery. A Computer Aided Designer is expected to have skills in mathematics, 3D Computer Aided Design, computer based design, mechanical drawing, building prototypes, architectural drawing and manual drafting techniques."

"text": "The Truly Staggering Cost of Alzheimer's Disease American spending on Alzheimer's disease could eclipse $1 trillion in 2050. Todd Campbell ( TMFEBCapital)Apr 4, 2015 at 11:59AMSource: Flickr user Garry Knight. Americans are spending $226 billion annually to treat the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease, and other dementias, rather than the cause of this disease itself. That's an endlessly frustrating revelation that if left unchecked, could pose a big threat to the healthcare system. According to the Alzheimer's Association, Alzheimer's disease could cost Americans $1.1 trillion -- yes, trillion -- by 2050. First, a bit of background In the U. S., there are 5.3 million people diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease and sadly, another case is diagnosed every 67 seconds. The vast majority of these patients are seniors, age 65 or older, and that means that the prevalence of this tough-to-treat disease is likely to climb significantly as baby boomers get older. That aging of America has the Alzheimer's Association estimating that the number of Alzheimer's patients in the U. S. will eclipse 7 million people by 2025, and that by 2050 roughly 14 million Americans will be suffering from this disease. The cost of care Last year, more than 17.9 billion hours were spent by family and friends caring for Alzheimer's patients. That unpaid care works out to a jaw-dropping economic cost to our country of $217.7 billion, not to mention the $9.7 billion in costs associated with caring for these care givers -- approximately 40% of whom suffer from depression as a result of their efforts."

An economist explains the dangers of long-term care insurance Economy Jan 15, 2014 12:00 PM EDTPaul Solman: Back in the 1970s, my wife and I, then in our 30s, began saving for the future. My biggest concern: outliving our nest egg. Worst case: a devastating disability that would require care we couldn’t afford. I thought that we shouldn’t subject our kids to a future choice that might pit their penury against our misery. We began to save like ants. Or maybe dung beetles. Then — I think it was in the 1980s — we heard about long-term care insurance. It was a lot cheaper in those days, but my wife and I both worked, our savings trajectory looked promising, and I asked myself the following question: If one or both of us, just a year or two ahead of the baby boom, would need long-term care, wouldn’t untold millions in our cohort? And if so, how could insurance companies afford to pay for us all?"

Krieger | [email protected] | Bay Area News Group PUBLISHED: November 1, 2012 at 5:41 am | UPDATED: August 13, 2016 at 12:25 am A small plastic tube is all that stands between survival and starvation. The benefits of a feeding tube — helping elders who have forgotten how to eat — seem so obvious that it is used on one-third of demented nursing home residents, contributing to a growing device market worth $1.64 billion annually. Except it does little to help. And it can hurt. Decades after the tube achieved widespread use for people with irreversible dementia, some families are beginning to say no to them, as emerging research shows that artificial feeding prolongs, complicates and isolates dying. The tale of the feeding tube, known as percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG), is the latest installment of “Cost of Dying,” a series exploring how our technological ability to stave off death creates dilemmas unimaginable decades ago, when we died younger and more quickly. Food is how we comfort those we love; when all other forms of communication have vanished, feeding remains a final act of devotion. So the easy availability of feeding tubes forces a wrenching choice upon families: Do we say yes, condemning a loved one to dependency on a small plastic tube in their stomach? Or do we say no, consenting to their death? Blessing, then a curse Tubes are useful as a nutritional tool for patients struggling with a critical illness, such as Lou Gehrig’s disease, or recovering from stroke, cancer or anorexia."

Medicare is also known as Title XVIII of the Social Security Act.1) Medicare Part A, also referred to as Hospital Insurance, pays for inpatient hospital care, some skilled nursing, hospice, and home care (if prescribed). Part A is premium-free for 99% of beneficiaries, due to paying Medicare taxes while employed.2) Medicare Part B, also referred to as Medical Insurance, covers outpatient physician and hospital services, some home health services, and durable medical equipment. For most seniors, Part B costs about $134.00 / month in 2017.3) Medicare Part C, also referred to as Medicare Advantage Plans, allows private companies like HMOs and PPOs to offer health insurance that provide at least the same benefits of Parts A & B, but usually more like dental and vision. Most also offer cover prescription drugs. To manage costs, they offer a limited choice of providers.4) Medicare Part D, Medicare’s Prescription Drug plan, offers prescription drug benefits through private insurance companies at the cost of additional monthly premiums.

Legg, Ph D, CRNPHeart disease Cancer Chronic lower respiratory disease Accidents Stroke Alzheimer's disease Diabetes Influenza and pneumonia Kidney disease Suicide Nearly 75 percent of all deaths in the United States are attributed to just ten causes, with the top three of these accounting for over 50 percent of all deaths. Over the last 5 years, the main causes of death in the U. S. have remained fairly consistent. The most recent data (2014) (resource no longer available at www.cdc.gov) reveals that annually there were 2,626,418 deaths registered in the U. S., which equates to: An age-adjusted death rate, which accounts for the aging population, of 823.7 deaths per 100,000 U. S. standard population A life expectancy at birth of around 78.8 years Heart disease remains the leading cause of death in the U. S., accounting for almost 1 in every 4 deaths, and affecting significantly more men than women. Death rates below are calculated on an annual basis per 100,000 of estimated population. Age-adjusted rates are used to compare relative mortality risks among groups and over time. Below, we expand on each of the causes of death and ask whether they can be prevented.1: Heart disease Deaths: 614,348Rate: 192.7Age-adjusted rate: 167.0Percentage of total deaths: 23.4 percent Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the U.

More than half of the deaths that occur as a result of heart disease are in men. Heart disease is a term used to describe several conditions, many of which are related to plaque buildup in the walls of the arteries. As the plaque builds up, the arteries narrow, this makes it more difficult for blood to flow and creates a risk for heart attack or stroke . Other types of heart problems include angina, arrhythmias, and heart failure ."

How You Can Help Raise Alzheimer’s Awareness This Month With over 5 million Americans living with Alzheimer’s disease, and those numbers expected to triple by 2050, it’s more important than ever to get informed on the prevention and treatment of dementia — and promote greater understanding of the disease and its symptoms so that it can be detected and treated early. Alzheimer’s Awareness Month, which occurs every November, was established to honor the millions of Americans living with Alzheimer’s, through advocacy for a cure, awareness and education. In addition to raising awareness and supporting those with the disease, Alzheimer’s Awareness Month also reminds us of the importance of caregivers, who are there to help their loved ones as they tread the difficult path ahead. A month of special attention helps us all focus on achieving those goals, and it helps to de-stigmatize Alzheimer’s disease throughout our society.

Our leaders—and all Americans—need to know the facts. Most everyone knows something about Alzheimer's. Or knows someone with the disease. Alzheimer's is quickly taking center stage—hundreds of clinical trials are under way, hundreds of Alzheimer's research papers are being published every year, and media coverage occurs almost daily. But what most Americans don't realize—and what this ground-breaking report makes clear—is that women are at the epicenter of Alzheimer's disease. Never before has a report made such a compelling connection between Alzheimer's disease and women. Sixty-five percent of all those with Alzheimer's are women. Sixty percent of caregivers for persons with Alzheimer's are women. That's 3.3 million American women with Alzheimer's and another 6.7 million women providing care for a friend or loved one."

There were an estimated 46.8 million people worldwide living with dementia in 2015 and this number is believed to be close to 50 million people in 2017. This number will almost double every 20 years, reaching 75 million in 2030 and 131.5 million in 2050. Much of the increase will be in developing countries. Already 58% of people with dementia live in low and middle income countries, but by 2050 this will rise to 68%. The fastest growth in the elderly population is taking place in China, India, and their south Asian and western Pacific neighbours. Demographic ageing is a worldwide process that shows the successes of improved health care over the last century. Many are now living longer and healthier lives and so the world population has a greater proportion of older people. Dementia mainly affects older people, although there is a growing awareness of cases that start before the age of 65. There are over 9.9 million new cases of dementia each year worldwide, implying one new case every 3.2 seconds."

"text": "Cost of Dementia Tops $157 Billion Annually in the United States The monetary cost of dementia in the United States ranges from $157 billion to $215 billion annually, making the disease more costly to the nation than either heart disease or cancer, according to a new RAND Corporation study. The greatest economic cost of dementia is associated with providing institutional and home-based long-term care rather than medical services, according to the findings published in the April 4 edition of The New England Journal of Medicine. The study, funded by the National Institute on Aging, is the most-detailed examination done in recent decades on the costs of dementia. The prevalence of dementia increases strongly with age and the analysis suggests that the costs of dementia could more than double by 2040 if the age-specific prevalence rate of the disease remains constant as the nation's population continues to grow older. “The economic burden of caring for people in the United States with dementia is large and growing larger,” said Michael Hurd, the study's lead author and a senior economist at RAND, a nonprofit research organization. “ Our findings underscore the urgency of recent federal efforts to develop a coordinated plan to address the growing impact of dementia on American society. ”The new cost estimates are lower than ones reported previously by the Alzheimer's Association. Researchers say the new study provides a clearer picture of the economic burden caused by the disease because it eliminates costs related to other illnesses suffered by dementia patients, accounts for variations in the severity of dementia and uses a better estimate of the incidence of the illness. Dementia is a chronic disease of aging characterized by progressive cognitive decline that interferes with independent functioning. The illness includes Alzheimer's disease and other disorders."

But, as with all contracts, it's always smart to read the fine print. Medicare pays for about half of all medical costs for older Americans, including hospitalization, doctors, some nursing care, some prescription drug costs, and medical equipment and supplies. But there's much that Medicare doesn't cover, as well as an alphabet soup of coverages, premiums, deductibles, and eligibility requirements that can be difficult to navigate -- especially for someone facing a health crisis. Find Out What Medicare Will (and Won't) Cover >>Here are the basics everyone should know about Medicare, and where to look for more information if you need it: What is Medicare? Medicare consists of four categories: Part A covers hospitalization, some skilled nursing facility and home health care, and hospice. Part B covers doctors' services and outpatient care such as X-rays, laboratory work, some home health care, physical and occupational therapy, and some preventive screening. Then there's Part C, also known as Medicare Advantage, which is Medicare received through a private managed care system such as an HMO (health maintenance organization) or PPO (preferred provider organization). When someone enrolls in a Medicare Advantage plan, they receive all the benefits of Medicare Parts A and B, as well as some additional coverage provided by the private plan. As with other managed care, however, Medicare Advantage plans limit where and how their members may receive care."

Just in case you need another reason to cut back on junk food, it now turns out that Alzheimer’s could well be a form of diet-induced diabetes. That’s the bad news. The good news is that laying off soda, doughnuts, processed meats and fries could allow you to keep your mind intact until your body fails you. We used to think there were two types of diabetes: the type you’re born with (Type 1) and the type you “get.” That’s called Type 2, and was called “adult onset” until it started ravaging kids. Type 2 is brought about by a combination of factors, including overeating, American-style. The idea that Alzheimer’s might be Type 3 diabetes has been around since 2005, but the connection between poor diet and Alzheimer’s is becoming more convincing, as summarized in a cover story in New Scientist entitled “Food for Thought: What You Eat May Be Killing Your Brain.” ( The graphic — a chocolate brain with a huge piece missing — is creepy."

Quick Facts about Alzheimer's Disease Alzheimer's is not a normal part of aging. Alzheimer's disease is an irreversible degeneration of the brain that causes disruptions in memory, cognition, personality, and other functions that eventually lead to death from complete brain failure. Alzheimer's is a growing epidemic. More than 5 million Americans now have Alzheimer's disease. By 2050, nearly 14 million (13.8 million) Americans over age 65 could be living with the disease, unless scientists develop new approaches to prevent or cure it. 1 However, estimates based on high-range projections of population growth provided by the U. S. Census suggest that this number may be as high as 16 million. 16Each day, thousands of American families are forever changed by this disease."

"text": "Be Kind to Your Brain – Eat Fat and Cut the Carbs Alzheimer’s disease, far and away the most common form of dementia, now affects some 5.4 million Americans, representing the third leading cause of death in our country. Even more troubling is the fact that this number is predicted to double in just the next 15 years. Moreover, women are disproportionately at risk, representing 65% of Alzheimer’s cases. In fact, a woman’s risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease now exceeds her risk of developing breast cancer. The annual cost for caring for Alzheimer’s patients exceeds $200 billion. All this for a disease for which we currently have no meaningful treatment. This is sobering information that should cause us to take a step back and wonder why this is happening in the first place. While we know that there is certainly a role for genetics in determining who is at risk for this disease, there is obviously much more to the story. If it were solely a gene-related issue, we wouldn’t be seeing a sudden explosion in new cases as is now occurring. So it makes sense to explore other factors that, unlike genetic issues, might actually be modifiable as they relate to risk for this otherwise incurable disease."

"text": "Laboratory Testing Plasma HIV-1 RNA (Viral Load) and CD4 Count Monitoring Last Updated: May 1, 2014; Last Reviewed: May 1, 2014HIV RNA (viral load) and CD4 T lymphocyte (CD4) cell count are the two surrogate markers of antiretroviral treatment (ART) responses and HIV disease progression that have been used for decades to manage and monitor HIV infection. Viral load is a marker of response to ART. A patient’s pre-ART viral load level and the magnitude of viral load decline after initiation of ART provide prognostic information about the probability of disease progression. 1 The key goal of ART is to achieve and maintain durable viral suppression. Thus, the most important use of the viral load is to monitor the effectiveness of therapy after initiation of ART. Measurement of CD4 count is particularly useful before initiation of ART. The CD4 cell count provides information on the overall immune function of a person with HIV. The measurement is critical in establishing thresholds for the initiation and discontinuation of opportunistic infection (OI) prophylaxis and in assessing the urgency to initiate ART. The management of patients with HIV has changed substantially with the availability of newer, more potent, and less toxic antiretroviral (ARV) agents. In the United States, ART is now recommended for all patients with HIV regardless of their viral load or CD4 count (AI) (see Initiation of Antiretroviral Therapy )."

[email protected]), lecturer in health economics a, Scott Mc Donald, senior lecturer b,Jennifer Roberts, senior lecturer in health economics a Author affiliations Correspondence to: S Dixon The macroeconomic effects of HIV/AIDS in Africa are substantial, and policies for dealing with them may be controversial—one is whether expensive antiretroviral drugs should be targeted at economically productive groups of people. The authors review the evidence and consider how economic theory can contribute to our response to the pandemic Three million people died from AIDS in 2001, making it the world's fourth biggest cause of death, after heart disease, stroke, and acute lower respiratory infection. 1 Over 70% of the world's 40 million people living with HIV/AIDS are in Africa (table 1 ). Besides the human cost, HIV/AIDS is having profound effects on Africa's economic development and hence its ability to cope with the pandemic. While the impact of HIV/AIDS on people has been well documented, it has been much more difficult to observe the pandemic's effects on the African economy as a whole or to assess how it might affect Africa's future development. Nevertheless we need to understand these broader economic effects to form effective policy responses. Summary points Economic research helps to estimate the effects of HIV/AIDS on the African economy and the cost effectiveness of prevention and treatment programmes Economic theory predicts that HIV/AIDS reduces labour supply and productivity, reduces exports, and increases imports The pandemic has already reduced average national economic growth rates by 2-4% a year across Africa Prevention and treatment programmes and economic measures such as targeted training in skills needed in key industries will limit the economic effects of HIV/AIDSTable 1.

S. Indeed, antiretroviral therapy is not only critical for the health and longevity of people with HIV, it has also been shown to significantly reduce the risk of HIV transmission. 1 For these reasons, current federal HIV treatment guidelines recommend initiation of ART as soon as one is diagnosed, as well as regular care and monitoring. 2 However, the majority of people with HIV in the U. S. are not yet engaged in care and not on ART. 3 Improving access to health coverage is one key component to addressing this gap. The Affordable Care Act (ACA), signed into law in 2010, aims to expand access to affordable health coverage for millions of Americans, including people with HIV. While several provisions of the ACA have implications for people with HIV, two are expected the have the most far reaching effects on coverage – the expansion of Medicaid, in states that choose to expand, and the creation of health insurance marketplaces in each state where individuals can purchase private coverage, along with subsidized coverage for those with low and moderate incomes. However, despite the ACA’s reforms, not all people with HIV will gain new forms of insurance. In addition, even those who do may need further assistance in accessing and paying for health coverage and certain types of services that are important for HIV care, such as case management, may remain unreimbursed in traditional systems of care. For these individuals, the Ryan White HIV/AIDS program, the nation’s safety net for people with HIV who are uninsured and underinsured, will continue to be critical. To provide greater insight into what the ACA has meant for people with HIV, this report examines their early experiences based on ten focus groups conducted in five states – California, Florida, Georgia, New York, and Texas – between June and September of 2014 (see Methodology for more detail)."

"text": "Pharmalot Gilead’s new price hikes on HIV drugs anger AIDS activists By Ed Silverman @Pharmalot July 5, 2016In this 2012 photo, AIDS activists protest against the price of Gilead's HIV drugs. John Storey/AP Images for AIDS Healthcare Foundation Twitter Facebook Linked In Email Doximity Republish Print As part of a strategy to switch patients to newer HIV treatments, Gilead Sciences late last week raised prices on a pair of older HIV medications that face patent expiration. This sort of maneuver is often found in the pharmaceutical playbook, but is triggering still more criticism by AIDS activists of its overall pricing strategies. Here’s what Gilead did: the company raised the wholesale acquisition cost, or list price, for the two older medicines — Complera and Stribild — by 7 percent, to $2,508 and $3,469 a month, respectively. This follows price hikes of 7 percent and 5 percent last January, which Cowen analyst Phil Nadeau noted is a deviation from the typical annual price hikes that Gilead takes on its HIV drugs. Meanwhile, Gilead left intact prices for two much newer versions of these drugs — Odefsey and Genvoya – which remain priced at $2,346 and $2,578 per month. Nadeau, who first reported the changes in an investor note, pointed out that Odefsey is now priced at a premium to Complera, while the difference between Stribild and Genvoya has widened. A Gilead spokeswoman confirmed the new prices. By boosting prices for the older HIV treatments twice in just six months, Gilead is clearly hoping that doctors will prescribe its newer drugs. And physicians have an added impetus for doing so: the newest Gilead medications are more potent and studies have indicated they are likely to cause fewer side effects."

"text": "UK health services Annual UK HIV treatment and care costs could reach £750 million by 2013Michael Carter Published: 23 January 2011The annual cost of providing HIV treatment and care in the UK could be as high as £758 million by 2013, investigators suggest in the online journal PLo S One . When the researchers included social care into their calculations, the 2013 cost was estimated to be well over £1000 million. Ongoing HIV infections will “continue to drive up population cost for HIV services,” argue the authors, who believe that cutting costs in HIV clinics will not have any meaningful impact on HIV expenditure. The UK has the fastest growing HIV epidemic in Europe, and increasing numbers of patients are using NHS HIV services. The increase in the UK’s HIV population is partly due to the use of antiretroviral therapy resulting in improved survival for many patients. In addition, large numbers of individuals are newly diagnosed with HIV each year. Sundhiya Mandalia and her team of investigators wished to establish the cost to the NHS of providing treatment and care to HIV-positive patients between 1997 and 2006. They also calculated projected costs in 2013. Information was gathered from 14 treatment centres, and the patients were divided according to their stage of HIV infection (asymptomatic; symptomatic; AIDS), and the type of antiretroviral therapy they received. On the basis of NHS service use data gathered by the National Prospective Monitoring System's HIV Health Economics Collaboration, the researchers calculated mean service utilisation levels for each category of patient."

The following questions and answers are meant to educate consumers on Pr EP and whether it is right for them. What is Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (Pr EP)? A prophylactic is a drug you take to prevent disease. When you take a drug to prevent HIV infection, it is called HIV prophylaxis. With Post-Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP), you take an HIV medication immediately after the exposure to HIV to prevent infection. With Pr EP, if you are HIV-negative, you take Truvada before possible exposure to HIV to prevent infection. Truvada is a combination of the drugs Emtriva and Viread. It was originally approved for treatment in 2004."

"text": "HIV Infection: The Role of Primary Care PDF PRINT COMMENTSSHAREA more recent article on HIV infection is available. FRANK ROMANELLI, Pharm D, MPH, University of Kentucky College of Pharmacy, Lexington, Kentucky SAMUEL C. MATHENY, MD, MPH, University of Kentucky College of Medicine, Lexington, Kentucky Am Fam Physician. 2009 Nov 1;80 (9):946-952. Human immunodeficiency virus infection was first documented in the United States in 1981. Since that time, significant strides have been made in the prevention and treatment of the condition. Screening is paramount in identifying early infection and is now a routine component of primary care. Primary care physicians are also often involved in monitoring patients with the infection. Diagnosis can occur at any stage of human immunodeficiency virus infection. The acute retro-viral syndrome that occurs shortly after infection is characterized by constitutional symptoms and is often difficult to differentiate from common community-acquired viruses. Appropriate management with combination antiretroviral therapy often extends the patient's life, sometimes for many years."

"text": "Medications, With Health Insurance: $10-$30 Each Medications, Without Health Insurance: $185-$3,000 Per Month Pneumonia Hospitalization: $9,000+E-mail Post Tweet HIV (Human immunodeficiency virus) [ 1] is the cause of AIDS, a chronic and potentially life-threatening condition. The virus acts by attacking the immune system, leaving the body unable to fight off disease. There is no cure for HIV/AIDs, but it can be controlled through a combination of medications. Typical costs: Physicians are likely to prescribe one or more medications to treat HIV/AIDS [ 2] . Most private insurers cover the cost of HIV/AIDs treatments and medications, requiring covered members to be responsible for copays that typically range from $10-$30 per prescription. Without insurance, annual HIV/AIDS treatment costs [ 3] can cost $14,000-$20,000, according to Michael Kolber, a professor at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. Non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors work by disabling a protein HIV needs to duplicate. One NNRTI, Sustiva [ 4] (efavirenz), costs about $185 per month. Nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors are flawed versions of the building blocks used for HIV replication, meaning they disrupt the protein-duplication process. Ziagen [ 5] (abacavir) typically costs about $600 per month; the generic version is about $70 less."

"text": "Report The Economic Impact of HIV/AIDS in Southern Africa Alan Whiteside, Dr. Malcom Mc Pherson, Erica Barks-Ruggles, and Tsetsele Fantan Saturday, September 1, 2001Facebook Twitter Linked In Email Download Download Since the first cases of HIV/AIDS were reported twenty years ago, nearly 58 million people have been infected and 22 million have died. Consensus in the international community has grown over the past two years that HIV/AIDS poses a threat to development, security, and economic growth. A few studies over the last ten years have looked at the impact on workers and their employers. With momentum building to prevent new infections and treat those already afflicted, more information is needed to assess economic impacts and cost efficacy of treatments. On June 28, 2001, the Brookings Institution, the Council on Foreign Relations, and the U. S. Agency for International Development (USAID) sponsored a conference on measuring the costs of HIV/AIDS and organizing responses to it. The conference brought together researchers, business people, and policymakers to discuss economic impacts, prevention costs, education, and treatment. This report is a summary of the findings presented at the conference. AIDS and Business in Southern Africa At the conference, Professor Alan Whiteside of the University of Natal gave an overview of the AIDS epidemic, which is currently centered in sub-Saharan Africa. The African epidemic is not homogenous; Southern Africa has the worst epidemic, and HIV prevalence there continues to rise. In Uganda, prevalence has fallen, while in other countries it has stabilized or is rising more slowly."

"text": "UK health services High lifetime costs of treating HIV show importance of investing in prevention Michael Carter Published: 27 May 2015The lifetime cost for treating one HIV infection in the UK is almost £380,000, according to a model published in the online journal PLOS One. Switching to generic drugs once patents expired could reduce costs to just over £100,000. The investigators based their calculations on costs associated with treating a 30-year-old gay man infected in 2013 who lived to the age of 72 years. It was assumed that standards of HIV treatment and care were those specified in the 2012 edition of the guidelines of the British HIV Association (BHIVA).“If 3,000 MSM [men who have sex with men] had been infected in 2013…and all were aged 30 years at infection then the future direct lifetime costs relating to HIV care amounts to approximately £1.1 billion,” write the authors. “ Even with the future use of generics, the total sum remains in excess of £0.5 billion.” The authors believe these figures show the vital importance of investing in effective prevention strategies. Thanks to improvements in HIV treatment and care, most patients with HIV in the UK and similar countries now have an excellent life expectancy. Researchers in the UK have calculated that, even after taking into consideration an increased risk of early death due to liver, kidney and heart disease and some cancers, a 30-year-old gay man with recent HIV infection would live until the age of 72 years. As of 2013, there were 81,500 people accessing HIV care in the UK. The good life expectancy of people with HIV and continued high rates of new diagnoses – 6500 in 2013 – means that the number of people living with HIV in the UK is likely to increase significantly in coming years."

"text": "Organizing and Operating a Limited Liability Company (LLC) in Rhode Island In Rhode Island (RI), owners of small businesses and rental or investment real estate should form a Rhode Island Limited Liability Company (LLC) to own and operate the business or real estate. The most important reason for establishing a Limited Liability Company (LLC) is that the owners of the Limited Liability Company, who are referred to as Members, are not liable for the debts of the company. T his limited liability feature is important if a company is not able to pay its bills or if there is a lawsuit for damages or personal injuries resulting from the activities of the company or the ownership of its properties. It is advisable to hire a Rhode Island business and corporate law lawyer/attorney to set up the LLC. Many attorneys will not only organize your LLC but will also file your annual report on a yearly basis. The limited liability feature also applies to Rhode Island corporations, however, the significant difference between a corporation and an LLC is that a limited liability company does not pay income taxes on its profits as a corporation is required to do. Rather, if there is only one member of the limited liability company or if the members are husband and wife, the limited liability company will be disregarded for tax purposes and the income or losses of the company will be reported on the member’s tax return. If there are members of the limited liability company who are not married to each other, the limited liability company is treated as a partnership and, again, there would be no taxation of income on the company level, but profits or losses would be reported on each member’s tax return as gains or losses from a partnership. Forming a Rhode Island limited liability company (LLC) requires that the following be done: Select a name for the company and confirm with the Rhode Island Secretary of State’s Office that the proposed name is not being used by or similar to another Rhode Island limited liability company. Draft and file with the Rhode Island Secretary of State the Articles of Organization of the limited liability company."

"text": "Home > Gas/Steam > Natural Gas Competition Natural Gas Competition New Hampshire has restructured its natural gas industry to allow commercial and industrial (C&I) end-users in the state to choose between purchasing gas supply directly from third party suppliers (deregulated) or purchasing gas supply from the utility and using their local gas utility for “transportation” or delivery service only (regulated). In 1993, the Commission approved transportation-only rates, requiring daily metering. In 2001, the Commission approved non-daily-metered delivery service to C&I customers, providing the opportunity for both large and small C&I customers to choose bundled or unbundled service. Due to the limited number of gas marketers serving New Hampshire and the failure of residential gas choice programs in other states to provide savings to residential customers, the Commission decided not to move forward with residential choice programs until after evaluating the results of the expanded C&I program and new choice initiatives being offered in other jurisdictions. Residential customers still purchase both gas commodity and delivery service from their local gas utility. Attention Suppliers and Aggregators: Pursuant to Senate Bill 324, effective July 1, 2014, Competitive Natural Gas Suppliers are subject to an annual assessment of $10,000 and providers of natural gas aggregation are subject to an annual assessment of $2,000. A supplier or aggregator may be eligible for an exemption from the assessment for a year if it earned less than $10,000 in gross New Hampshire revenue during the preceding fiscal year ending on June 30, and it submits an exemption form confirming the applicable revenue total for that fiscal year. Assessment Exemption Claim Form: If you have earned less than $10,000 in gross revenue during fiscal year 2017 (July 1, 2016 to June 30, 2017), then you may be eligible for an exemption from the fiscal year 2018 assessment. If you believe you are eligible for this exemption, you can file a claim for the exemption by completing and submitting the Gas Aggregator or Gas Competitive Supplier Assessment Exemption Claim Form, which may be downloaded through the following link. Assessment Exemption Form - Gas Aggregator Assessment Exemption Form - Gas Competitive Supplier Natural gas suppliers and aggregators are required to register with the Commission for authority to operate in New Hampshire."

Advertisement Calculate My Chances at Stanford Get Admission & Tuition Info campusexplorer.com/Stanford Student Loans To gauge a more realistic picture of what it may really cost you out of pocket to go to Stanford University, we've modeled a ten year student loan with an original principal value of $85,684. The loan balance of $85,684 is a four year multiple of the $21,421 average net price. This is a estimate of what you could owe upon graduation if you were to qualify for average financial aid and what a degree really may cost. Should you not qualify for financial aid, you may owe significantly more when you graduate. Based on these assumptions, a monthly repayment of $895 could be required to satisfy your student loan."

Lawrence Ellison, today ranked sixth on Forbes list of the world’s richest people but for a time at the very top of it, is the ultimate against-theodds success story. He was born in Manhattan to a 19-year-old unwed Jewish mother (and an Italian-American air force pilot father), grew up with his great aunt (and a great uncle who constantly belittled him), didn’t even meet his mother until he was in his late 40s, and yet had the drive and ability to found what became an extraordinary computer software giant, Oracle, with $1,400 of his own money. Be the first to know - Join our Facebook page. He got his first taste of computer designing at the University of Chicago but never completed an academic degree, moving to California at age 20 and finding a job with the Ampex electronics company, where he worked on a database for the CIA. He adopted that project’s title, Oracle, for his own firm, which he developed into the world’s foremost supplier of software for information management."

"text": "\"Standardized tests have been a part of American education since the mid-1800s. Their use skyrocketed after 2002's No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) mandated annual testing in all 50 states. US students slipped from being ranked 18th in the world in math in 2000 to 27th in 2012, with a similar decline in science and no change in reading. Failures in the education system have been blamed on rising poverty levels, teacher quality, tenure policies, and, increasingly, on the pervasive use of standardized tests. Proponents say standardized tests are a fair and objective measure of student achievement, that they ensure teachers and schools are accountable to taxpayers, and that the most relevant constituents – parents and students – approve of testing. Opponents say the tests are neither fair nor objective, that their use promotes a narrow curriculum and drill-like \"\"teaching to the test,\"\" and that excessive testing undermines America's ability to produce innovators and critical thinkers. Read more background... Top Pro & Con Arguments93% of studies on student testing, including the use of large-scale and high-stakes standardized tests, found a \"\"positive effect\"\" on student achievement, according to a peer-reviewed, 100-year analysis of testing research completed in 2011 by testing scholar Richard P. Phelps. [ 138]Standardized tests are reliable and objective measures of student achievement. Without them, policy makers would have to rely on tests scored by individual schools and teachers who have a vested interest in producing favorable results. Multiple-choice tests, in particular, are graded by machine and therefore are not subject to human subjectivity or bias. ["

"text": "The standard student budget applies to the typical Stanford undergraduate student:unmarriedfinancially dependent on parentsliving in a residence hall or off-campusattending full-time for Autumn, Winter and Spring quarters The budget includes the actual cost of tuition and certain fees, a standard amount for room and board, and allowances for the typical costs of books and supplies, personal/miscellaneous expenses, and transportation to and from campus. Books, supplies, personal/miscellaneous expenses and transportation costs are estimates of your actual expenses and included for the purpose of determining the full cost of attendance and eligibility for aid. Most of these expenses are not part of the university bill. The amounts are based on a survey of current students and adjusted for inflation. If your actual expenses are significantly higher than the allowances, you can submit documentation of your costs to the Financial Aid Office; we may be able to adjust your budget and increase your financial aid eligibility. Few students actually pay this full cost! Prospective students and parents can use our Net Price Calculator to obtain estimates of eligibility for need-based financial aid from Stanford.

"text": "Cardinal Care Overview and Benefits Cardinal Care, the university sponsored health insurance option, is a comprehensive plan specifically designed for Stanford students. Medical benefits are administered by Health Net of California, mental health benefits are administered by Managed Health Network (MHN), a Health Net company, and, continuing for the 2017–18 plan year, dental benefits, administered by Delta Dental of California, will be included. Cardinal Care offers robust coverage at school, at home, and while traveling or studying abroad. This is important for Stanford students, many of whom are on the move. Cardinal Care also provides coverage for enrollees during leaves of absence, school breaks, immediately following graduation, and in quarters when students might not be registered for classes, such as summer. Students enrolled in Cardinal Care have access to Stanford faculty specialists and hospital and emergency care at the Stanford University Medical Center. Important to note: enrollment in Cardinal Care or the decision to waive Cardinal coverage is an annual commitment. This means that the decision made at the first quarter of entry for any academic year is binding for the remainder of that academic year. The only exception to the annual commitment occurs for students who graduate at the end of autumn or winter quarters. Autumn and winter graduates may petition to cancel Cardinal Care coverage at the end of the coverage period associated with the quarter in which they graduate."

Engineering graduate schools provide students opportunities to seek advanced careers and earn higher wages. Show Me Schools View 10 Popular Schools »Average Tuition for Graduate Engineering Tuition costs for a graduate degree program in engineering are determined by the type of engineering program, as well as the type of the academic institution. Public colleges, such as state universities, often have lower tuition rates than private universities. Many graduate schools also charge fees, such as application, registration and book fees, which increase the total cost of attendance. Determining average tuition costs is difficult, since rates vary greatly among institutions, and some schools even fluctuate rates per semester. U. S. News & World Report ranks public and private engineering graduate schools annually based on the quality of the program, teachers and student outcomes. In 2014, the annual in-state, full-time tuition rates (including fees) for the top 5 graduate engineering schools were: $44,720 for the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, $47,073 for Stanford University, $11,220 for the University of California - Berkeley, $41,000 for Carnegie Mellon University and $41,790 for the California Institute of Technology.

Approximately 78 percent of the student body receives a tuition fellowship or loan assistance, with the average fellowship portion per recipient totaling about $23,000 annually. Aid is awarded on the basis of demonstrated need and is provided through a combination of tuition fellowships, government guaranteed loans and private loans. To apply for financial aid, please complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and the CSS Profile application. The FAFSA should be completed as soon as possible after January 1. A service of the U. S. Department of Education, FAFSA is free to all applicants. Please note that the Title IV School Code for Stanford Law School is E00341 and our CSS Profile code is 7832 (last day to be considered for SLS need-based aid for the 2018-19 academic year is 2/15/19). In general, the financial award system operates as follows: Each year the school determines a standard budget to cover basic costs (tuition plus living expenses). Each student’s need is calculated by subtracting reported resources from the standard budget. These resources include one–third of reported assets; 57% of summer gross earnings over $6,000; assumed earnings of spouse (if married); and an imputed parental contribution (based on the CSS Profile analysis) if the student is dependent."

"text": "\" (Photo: Kirby Lee, USA TODAY Sports)CONNECT TWEET LINKEDIN COMMENT EMAIL MOREThousands of college athletes who received traditional sports scholarships rather than a new version that covers the full cost of attending school will be compensated for the difference under a $208.7 million settlement reached Friday night between the NCAA and plaintiffs in a presumptive class-action antitrust lawsuit against the association and 11 major conferences. The deal, which must be approved by a federal judge, would be the second-largest legal settlement in the NCAA's history. Similar litigation in a case led by Stanford football football player Jason White ended in 2008 with an agreement worth just under $230 million. According to documents filed Friday night, for athletes covered by the settlement who played their sport for four years, the average settlement payout will be nearly $6,800. In addition, if the proposed agreement is approved, athletes who are eligible for a payment will not have to file a claim form -- they will simply receive a check. The payout amounts will be based on the number of years the athletes were on scholarship and on the difference between the value of the scholarship they received and the cost of attendance at their school at the time. More college news Court filing: Art Briles tried to hide Baylor players' misbehavior Five-year college football recruiting averages should forecast next season USA TODAY Sports' bracketology: Gonzaga still unbeaten, Kansas the top seed Athletes who have remaining eligibility when they receive a check will be able to accept the money without any impact on their ability to continue playing in college. Friday’s proposed agreement, at its simplest level, would apply to scholarship athletes in Division I men’s basketball, Division I women’s basketball or Bowl Subdivision football whose award was limited by NCAA rules to basically tuition, room, board, books and fees. Those athletes would be eligible for money from the settlement if they were on scholarship during the 2009-10 school year -- or if they were on scholarship at any time between then and Aug. 1, 2015, when an NCAA rules change let Division I schools begin giving athletes in any sport a scholarship that covers the full cost of attendance. However, under certain circumstances, settlement money also will be available to scholarship athletes in the three covered sports even if their school, after the rules change, chose not to provide a scholarship covering the full cost of attendance."

Usually the endowment is structured so that the principal amount is kept intact, while the investment income is available for use, or part of the principal is released each year, which allows for their donation to have an impact over a longer period than if it were spent all at once. An endowment may come with stipulations regarding its usage. The total value of an institution's investments is often referred to as the institution's endowment and is typically organized as a public charity, private foundation, or trust. Among the institutions that commonly manage endowments are academic institutions (e.g., colleges, universities, and private schools ), cultural institutions (e.g., museums, libraries, and theaters), service organizations (e.g., hospitals, retirement homes, the Red Cross, the SPCA ), and religious organizations (e.g., churches, synagogues, mosques).

Aurelius created one endowed chair for each of the major schools of philosophy: Platonism, Aristotelianism, Stoicism, and Epicureanism. Later, similar endowments were set up in some other major cities of the Empire. [ 1] [2]The practice was adapted to the modern university system beginning in England in 1502, when Lady Margaret Beaufort, Countess of Richmond and grandmother to the future king Henry VIII, created the first endowed chairs in divinity at the universities of Oxford ( Lady Margaret Professor of Divinity) and Cambridge ( Lady Margaret's Professor of Divinity ). [ 3] Nearly 50 years later, Henry VIII established the Regius Professorships at both universities, this time in five subjects: divinity, civil law, Hebrew, Greek, and physic—the last of those corresponding to what are now known as medicine and basic sciences."

"text": "\"How do Timeshares Work For those consumers who may not have heard of the term timeshare, or others who may know of timeshares but just don't understand much about them and are wondering how do timeshares work, then you'll want to read on. Timeshares are essentially vacation time in a resort or form of holiday accommodation where you share the ownership of that accommodation with other vacationers. Timeshare owners purchase the use of time in a resort unit and, along with the other owners of that resort, are able to vacation in locations with luxury accommodation for a fraction of the overall cost. It's the same concept as owning a vacation home but only paying for the time that you would actually stay in that home, without having to buy the entire vacation home. That's the short answer when asking yourself \"\"how do timeshares work\"\". The timeshare concept is also about pre-paid vacations, meaning that an owner has paid for the multiple use of that unit at the outset. Even when factoring in annual maintenance fees, the overall cost of taking a vacation in that unit is less expensive than paying for a stay in a similar hotel on an annual basis. Cost Comparison According to figures from the American Resort Development Association, a family of four which takes a one week vacation will spend an average of $3,000 per week if they stay in a hotel and eat out three meals a day. Over 20 years, that's $60,000 spent on vacations. Compare that to a family which buys a timeshare for $5,000 (which is the average price of a timeshare on the resale market) and includes the average maintenance fees which would total $14,000 (at $700 per year on average over 20 years)."

"text": "\"How to Get to Disney Cheap By Nancy Schretter, Editor Disney family vacations are one of the most popular topics for our Family Travel Network readers. So is how to get to Disney on a budget. Here are 12 ways to get to Disney on the cheap so you'll have plenty of money to spend at the parks on your Disney family vacation.1. Go off-season. For budget shoppers, the best time to visit Disney is during their \"\"value seasons.\"\" Typically, these tend to be the non-holiday periods from early January to mid-February and after Labor Day until right before Christmas. Sometimes free dining plans are included with Disney resort stays during this time period, so keep an eye out for special offers. Free nights at Disney resort hotels and other perks may be offered during these slower seasons and the lines for rides are shorter, too. Check the Disney Parks website, the Family Travel Network, and the other sites such as Mouse Savers.com, All Ears.net and DISboards.com for more information on Disney specials and deals.2. Be flexible on travel dates."

Disney's Board Walk Villas Resort (BWV) is part of the Disney's Board Walk complex that includes, in addition to the Villas, Disney's Board Walk Inn, Disney's Board Walk dining, shopping and entertainment area and a convention center. Disney's Board Walk is styled after the Atlantic coast resorts of the 1930s. What's the difference between the Board Walk Villas and the Board Walk Inn? Disney's Board Walk Villas are part of the timeshare resort that belongs to the Disney Vacation Club (DVC). Disney's Board Walk Inn is a Disney hotel in the \"\"Deluxe Resort\"\" category. Can I rent rooms in the Board Walk Villas or do I have to be a member of Disney's Vacation Club? As with all the Disney Vacation Club resorts on property, anyone can rent rooms or suites at the Board Walk Villas, subject to availability of course. You do NOT have to be a member of the DVC. NOTE: To help relieve the confusion about the availability of Disney Vacation Club accommodations as nightly rentals, Disney vacation planners are now using the term \"\"Disney Deluxe Villa Resorts\"\" in reference to the DVC properties for non-members."

"text": "Disney World Vacation Package Discounts LAST UPDATE: 3/28/18Walt Disney World vacation package discounts are slightly less common than discounts on individual components (room, tickets, food), but there are good vacation package discounts to be had, and this page covers them all. A “vacation package” for Disney World includes a room at an official Disney resort, plus either tickets or a dining plan or both. Disney World packages are popular because they offer convenience and simplicity, but sometimes you can save more creating your own “package” by buying tickets, hotel and food separately. Disney Vacation Package discounts are not always available for all future dates, and are released just 3-5 months in advance, so it’s a good idea to start your search early and keep checking back to see if package discounts have been released for the time frame you want.

This is where things can get interesting…Comparing RCI and Interval International Poking around for vacation deals If you’re a timeshare owner, you’ve undoubtedly seen the option on these sites to purchase an “extra vacation” for cash. These companies handle exchanging your timeshare to stay at a different resort, but they also offer these opportunities to buy a vacation and just put it on your credit card (not exchanging your unit at all). We’ve gotten some amazing vacation deals on these over the years, so I’m always interested to see what’s available. As it happens, Brian was just reserving a week for us in Sedona, Arizona, so I decided to see what’s available there in August. ( August really isn’t my favorite time for Sedona – I prefer spring and fall – but I was just curious…)What I found on Interval International First I looked at Interval International, and searched for Getaways (the name on II for these “cash” vacations). Searching for Sedona, Arizona in August, one of the resorts that showed up was Villas of Sedona. They had 5 different check-in dates available, with a price of $1029/week (which is $147/night."

Those who have purchased their DVC points directly from Disney (or purchased resale DVC points prior to 3/21/11) can also use those points at Disney resort hotels in California, Florida, France, Hong Kong, Japan, the Disney Cruise Line, and other (non-Disney) vacations.

"text": "\"When Does An Annual Pass Become More Cost Effective?by Jack Marshall There comes a time for many people when a single short visit to Walt Disney World is not enough time to see and do all that you want to. Your thoughts turn towards an extended trip or maybe even a return trip. Then you start thinking about the price of admission to the parks. Sometimes it is more cost effective to look at the overall picture. If you are going to return to WDW within one year or are going to have an extended stay, it might be more cost effective for you to consider purchasing an Annual Passport of some kind, but not necessarily. You can check the types of annual passes and their entitlement here. With Disney's Magic Your Way tickets, doing an accurate comparison of value between them and annual passes is subjective at best. The MYW tickets are priced in so many tiers (Base Ticket, Park Hopper add on and/or Water Parks Fun & More add on.) that it makes generalizing impossible. The one thing about the MYW tickets that does remain consistent is that the longer the ticket you purchase, the less the per day park admission will be for you."

To stroll the barely solidified pavement and see the park in its infancy? Maybe you’d bump into Uncle Walt having lunch at the Chicken Plantation Restaurant before checking out the Indian Village? How about forking over a C-ticket to ride the Jungle Cruise? Today, we’re used to the modern all-day, all-attraction type of Disneyland. As a die-hard Disney fan, I know all about the famous A-E ticket system that used to rule the park, but it was phased-out before I was even born. While working on The Ultimate Guide To Disneyland Annual Passports, the thought occurred to me: If I could go back in time and visit Disneyland the year it opened, how much would it cost for me to ride everything at the park like I expect to do now? On this page, I’ll walk you through the steps I took to make an ‘apples-to-apples’ comparison for tickets to Disneyland in 1955 and Disneyland today, including some interesting things I learned along the way.

It officially opened on August 29, 2011. It is the third Disney Vacation Club Resort located outside of a Disney theme park property. Contents [ show]Background Initially announced in October 2007, Disney unveiled the resort's name in January 2010. The project was estimated to cost $800 million and eventually generate about 1,000 jobs at the resort. The project is managed by Disney Vice-President Djuan Rivers, who said he was committed to integrating environmentally friendly initiatives into the resort. About The Aulani Story Walt Disney Imagineers worked hand in hand with locals to create Aulani, a place celebrating Hawaiian history, culture and artwork. Because Hawaiians layer rich meaning in their words, so the name “Aulani” has more than one meaning. It is “the messenger of a chief”, yet it is also “the one who delivers a message from a higher authority.” To that end, Aulani tells the epic story of Hawaiʻi through every brushstroke, beam and sculpture."

"text": "Full Answer To understand the two different forms of nondisjunction, it is important to consider how meiosis happens normally. As explained by the University of Arizona, in meiosis I, the homologous replicated chromosomes (sister chromatids) line up on the metaphase plate. During anaphase I, the homologous chromosomes are supposed to separate. During anaphase II, the sister chromatids of the already-separated homologous chromosomes separate. Nondisjunction in anaphase I of meiosis is a result of homologous chromosomes failing to separate and nondisjunction in anaphase II of meiosis is a result of sister chromatids failing to separate, as IUPUI describes. Both types of nondisjunction have the same result: gametes that have an incorrect number of chromosomes, called aneuploidy. In most situations, aneuploidy in human gametes result in non-viable zygotes. However, there are a few situations in which embryos with gross chromosome abnormalities survive to term. According to IUPUI, the forms of aneuploidy that permit survival are trisomy 21 (Down syndrome), trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome), trisomy 18 (Edwards syndrome) and differing numbers of sex chromosomes X and Y.

So far I am really enjoying being a student at ITCC. I have heard through the grapevine of my friends, peers, and co-workers that Ivy Tech is a bull***t school to attend for Nursing. The reason I am being told this is that there is an extremely long waiting list and acceptance into the program is almost impossible. What I am trying to do is to see if people can debunkify these \"\"possible\"\" myths for me and put my mind at ease about attending this college for Nursing. Truly, what I am wondering is that people may find Ivy Tech a bit too intimidating and then proceed to make up all of these lies in order to make themselves feel good about not successfully completing the program. 1. Is Ivy Tech really as hard as people say to get accepted into Nursing if you dedicate yourself? 2. Is it true that there is a long waiting list even though the college states that they are no longer kept?"

IUPUI does not have a mandatory health fee, but we receive some General Fee funding from the Division of Student Affairs. This funding allows us to keep our fees lower than other healthcare providers in the area. We are mindful about providing services at the lowest cost to you. Our providers will work with you to make sure your health care is as cost effective as medically appropriate. Please note that outside labs (labs sent to IU Health or South Bend laboratories), medications, and some procedures require a fee in addition to the office charge to see a provider (physician or nurse practitioner). LABS For your convenience, we offer certain in-house labs at no additional cost to students. These in-house labs include:rapid pregnancy,rapid strep throat tests,rapid mono,lipid panels (at the Campus Center location),rapid HIV. If labs are sent out and covered by your policy, they can be billed to your health insurance. We need a copy of your insurance card to send with your lab order."

"text": "\"Grade Point Average (GPA)The grade point average is reported in two ways. The Semester GPA is the calculation of all grades received in a single semester. The Cumulative GPA is the calculation of all grades received while an undergraduate or a graduate student at the university. If the student enrolled at more than one IU campus during an academic career, the cumulative GPA would reflect the student's Indiana University GPA, and not separate it by campus. Separate GPAs are calculated for undergraduate work and for graduate work, so if student pursued both an undergraduate degree and a graduate degree at IU, the GPA's would be calculated separately and both appear on the transcript. GPA Calculation Only courses with grades of A+ through D- and F are used in calculating a Grade Point Average (GPA). P and S grades are passing grades in completed courses, but are not used in calculation of a GPA. Courses taken at other non-IU institutions are not used in calculating the IU GPA. IUPUI students pursuing Purdue degrees offered by the Schools of Engineering and Technology, Science, and Restaurant, Hotel, Institutional & Tourism Management will have their GPA calculated following Purdue University grading policy. Courses taken at any IU or Purdue campus and included in the student's program of study will be used in calculating the final GPA at time of the degree."

"text": "Full Answer The human body converts carbohydrates into glucose. Carbohydrates are found in foods such as pasta, fruit, rice, vegetables and baked goods. In healthy people, a hormone called insulin helps glucose enter the cells. People with diabetes do not make insulin or are unable to use insulin to carry glucose into their cells. This allows glucose to build up in the bloodstream, a condition known as high blood sugar. If glucose does not enter the cells, the body is unable to use it for energy, even if there is a large amount of glucose available. In humans, glucose is converted to adenosine triphosphate via the process of cellular respiration. This process is made up of four steps called glycolysis, the transition reaction, the Krebs cycle and the electron transport chain. During glycolysis, glucose is converted to pyruvic acid. Every molecule of glucose used during this stage produces two ATP, according to the IUPUI Department of Biology."

"text": "\"Why Is Advanced Veterinary Care So Expensive? As medical specialties, such as cardiology, oncology, neurology and internal medicine continue to expand into the realm of veterinary care, the cost for pet care owners pay continues to increase. Opening their Broad Ripple home — as well as their hearts and wallets — to a bevy of beloved pets over the last 25 years, Angie’s List members Carol Gardner and Bill Gronfein estimate they’ve spent at least $17,500 in vet bills to provide their animals the kind of oncology, surgery, ophthalmology and other specialty health services once available only to humans. And that amount doesn’t count what they spend on routine vaccines and wellness exams for their pets. “ Specialty pet care has exploded. You have the option of treating pets for things that in the past would have meant that’s it, the pet is gone,” Gronfein says. “ We thank God we have the money to do this. ”But they also grapple with concerns about the limits of appropriate treatment and spending. Gardner says they consider cost, especially with retirement looming, as well as whether special treatment will improve the pet’s quality of life. “ Others may spend a lot on their hobbies or vacations."

Kravitz Well-known reporters Phil Richards, Mike Chappell, Phil B. Wilson and Mark Ambrogi left the state’s largest daily newspaper in September. And last month, columnist Bob Kravitz joined WTHR-TV Channel 13. Throw in the 2013 departures of two other sports reporters—IU beat writer Terry Hutchens for Scout.com and Indianapolis Colts and Indiana Pacers beat writer Mike Wells for ESPN—and about half The Star’s sports writing staff has turned over in 14 months. The timing of the most recent round of departures came at a particularly difficult time for The Star—on the eve of the onset of the Colts season. While it has become commonplace for print reporters on national beats to jump to television networks, it’s less common on the local level. But that trend may be picking up steam. WDRB-TV Channel 41 in Louisville, Kentucky, has hired six journalists from print publications to contribute to its website during the last two years, said Barry Fulmer, the station’s news director. WRAL-TV Channel 5 in Raleigh, North Carolina, made at least three hires from newspapers in recent months, station officials said. Local TV stations are finding newspaper sports reporters attractive for the same reason Internet sites have sought them out for several years."

Previous to this, the idea of Sea Shepherd was formed when Captain Paul Watson founded the Earth Force Society in 1977 in Vancouver BC, Canada. The original mandate of both organizations was marine mammal protection and conservation with an immediate goal of shutting down illegal whaling and sealing operations, but Sea Shepherd later expanded its mission to include all marine wildlife. In 1978, with financial support from Cleveland Amory of the Fund for Animals, the Society purchased its first ship (a British sea trawler Westella) and renamed it the Sea Shepherd . Its first mission was to sail to the ice floes of Eastern Canada to interfere with the annual killing of baby harp seals known as whitecoats. In the same year, the Sea Shepherd hunted down and rammed the notorious prolific pirate whaler the Sierra in a Portugal harbor ending its infamous career as the scourge of the seas. Since those early days, Sea Shepherd has embarked on over 200 voyages covering many of the world's oceans and defending and saving defenseless marine life all along the way. Timeline1977April: Paul Watson and Greenpeace part ways. June: Watson establishes the Earthforce Environmental Society in Vancouver, Canada.

An intelligent canine from working descent, he will bond with and protect his handler with courage and conviction. This breed of dog is employed by police and military within roles ranging from crowd control to tracking and physical capture of an escaping subject. The German shepherd can make a wonderful family pet and when choosing a particular dog, it is important to keep in mind that many suffer from hip dysplasia and related problems. This is normally due to irresponsible breeding. Both parents of a litter should be hip scored before mating. When taking on an adult dog certainly check the gait. If the dogs back slopes downwards towards the tail it may have a problem with hips due to excess pressure. It is not always possible to see potential hip problems but sometimes they are obvious.

We’ll start with the cheapest and work our way up. Rescue Dogs There are many great rescues that charge a reasonable fee. There are many costs that go into rescuing dogs. I’m not quite certain what adoption fees are, however whatever they are, you are basically supporting the rescue of the dog, be it $75 from an SPCA or $500 from a no-kill shelter.

"text": "\"German Shepherd Food and Nutrition Today, consumers have an unlimited number of choices when it comes to German shepherd food and nutrition. The days of feeding puppies a generic puppy food and adult dogs a basic, one-flavor-satisfies-all dog food are nightmares of the past. Grocery aisles, pet supply stores, and internet retailers all promote their own special brands. When a shepherd thrives on a well balanced nutritional German shepherd food, his skin is soft and supple, his coat is thick and full, his ribs are covered, and his energy is boundless. Commercial Foods Research by commercial pet food producers has led to increased general public knowledge about canine nutritional needs and how to help a dog thrive rather than just survive. As you might suspect; unfortunately, not all commercial dog foods are a quality product. At the high end of the spectrum are foods made with highly nutritional, human-grade ingredients that are specialized to meet a dog's particular needs. At the low end are those foods that are made with poor sources of protein, lots of filler, and nearly indigestible minerals and vitamins. German shepherd food labels can be difficult to decipher, but there are several key points to look for when trying to make sense of what is in a bag, package, or can.

Copyright © 2000-2018The AKC Standard says the German Shepherd \"\"has a distinct personality marked by direct and fearless, but not hostile, expression, self-confidence, and a certain aloofness that does not lend itself to immediate and indiscriminate friendships. The dog must be approachable, quietly standing its ground and showing confidence and willingness to meet overtures without itself making them. \"\" That's a great description of an ideal German Shepherd. Unfortunately, it's very difficult to find an ideal German Shepherd today. Nowadays, this breed is all over the map in temperament. Lines that are bred for protection work and the sport of schutzhund tend to be \"\"hard-tempered\"\" and businesslike. Show lines range from mild and mellow, to hyperactive and skittish, to downright dumb and dopey. And many German Shepherds bred by backyard breeders have risky temperaments and suffer from a host of health problems. Energy levels vary from vigorous to laid-back, but all German Shepherds, to maintain their athletic shape, need brisk walking every day and all-out running in a safe, enclosed area as often as possible."

Over the years these slight, elegant dogs have proved themselves to be extremely good at their job becoming a firm favourite with many people throughout the country and elsewhere in the world. Also known as the \"\"Snap Dog\"\", whippets are capable of running very fast with records of them reaching 56 km/h miles when in full flight which in short, means they are superb racing dogs. They are gentle characters by nature and are known to be one of the cleanest dogs around, but with this comes the \"\"hound\"\" in them which in short means that a Whippet would feel the need to chase anything that moves. They thrive on human company and are highly adaptable being just at home in a country house or large castle as they would be living in a smaller house providing there is a very secure back garden for them to safely let off steam as often as possible. They are one of the most popular sporting-type dogs on the planet for these very reasons with Whippets being high on the list of favourite family pets and companions in the UK."

However, its absolute cost is likely to restrict its use to only the highest-risk individuals in a population, and this may mean it may only make a minor impact on HIV incidence. These, at least, are the effects forecast amongst men who have sex with men (MSM) and transgender women (TGs) in the capital of a middle-income country. The country in the model is Lima, Peru, and the reason it was chosen as the base for the model is because it featured the highest number of enrolments to the seminal i Pr Ex study of Pr EP in MSM/TGs, the first of several studies to report significant efficacy (in the case of i Pr Ex it cut HIV infections by 44%, even though only 50% of trial participants took enough doses of Pr EP for it to work). The inputs for the model were derived both from the data produced by i Pr Ex and from the anthropological and social research into the MSM/TG communities of Lima and Peru conducted in advance of the actual study; the latter was crucial to i Pr Ex's success because it enabled appropriate targeting and recruitment. The model The model divides the MSM/TG population into four categories and assumes different levels of HIV incidence in them, based on projections derived from the original background research. These are: MSM who mainly have sex with men (MMSM) – these form 70% of the target population and have an annual HIV incidence of 2.5%. MSM who mainly have sex with women (MMSW) – 15% of the target population, annual incidence 1.0%. Male sex workers (MSW) – 10% of the target population, annual incidence 3.1%. Higher risk transgender women (TG) – 5% of the target population, but the highest annual incidence at 7.3%."

( 1,2) Depending on the production process used, blood products derived from pooled plasma can also transmit HIV and other viruses, but recombinant clotting factors cannot. ( 3,4,5) This chapter discusses the history of HIV transmission through blood products; incidence; control measures; and the current estimated safety of U. S. blood components, blood products, tissues used for transplantation, and sperm used for artificial insemination. HIV Infection Transmitted During Blood Transfusion Single Donor Components Before 1985HIV infection resulting from blood transfusion has been documented repeatedly since the first case report in late 1982. ( 6-8,9) In the United States, almost all cases are due to blood transfused before March 1985, when HIV antibody testing became available to screen donated blood. As of December 2001, an estimated 14,262 persons have been diagnosed with AIDS as a result of transfusing contaminated blood or blood products. ( 10 )In some resource-rich countries, testing of donated blood for HIV antibodies was not immediately initiated for a variety of reasons. France began HIV antibody testing in June 1985, Canada began testing in November 1985, and Switzerland began testing in May 1986. Germany inconsistently tested plasma products between 1987 and 1993, as did Japan in 1985 and 1986. These delays led to criminal investigations in France, Germany, Switzerland, and Japan, which in some cases led to criminal conviction of those persons found to be responsible. ("

( 1) Disseminated histoplasmosis (DH) initially was reported in patients with AIDS in 1982 ( 2) and was added to the U. S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) AIDS case definition in 1987. ( 3) Histoplasma capsulatum var capsulatum primarily affects those living in the valleys of the Ohio and Mississippi rivers in the United States, and those living in Latin America. H capsulatum var duboisii is described only in Africa. Precise reasons for the endemic distribution are not clear, but are thought to include the moderate climate, humidity, and soil characteristics. ( 4) Activities that disturb soil are associated with exposure to H capsulatum. Air currents then can carry these spores for miles, exposing individuals without contact to the contaminated site. ( 4 )In the United States, histoplasmosis has been diagnosed in 2-5% of the HIV-positive population. Significantly higher rates of infection have been described in geographic regions where this infection is endemic."

"text": "Trichomoniasis is the most prevalent nonviral sexually transmitted infection in the United States, affecting an estimated 3.7 million persons ( 533 ). Health disparities persist in the epidemiology of T. vaginalis infection in the United States: 13% of black women are affected compared with 1.8% of non-Hispanic white women ( 639). T. vaginalis infection affects >11% of women aged ≥40 years ( 640 ), and particularly high prevalence has been detected among STD clinic patients ( 641) (26% of symptomatic women and 6.5% asymptomatic women tested) and incarcerated persons (9%–32% of incarcerated women [ 135,136, 640, 642,643] and 2%–9% of incarcerated men) ( 136,137, 644,645 ). The prevalence of trichomoniasis in MSM is low ( 646,647 ). Some infected men have symptoms of urethritis, epididymitis, or prostatitis, and some infected women have vaginal discharge that might be diffuse, malodorous, or yellow-green with or without vulvar irritation. However, most infected persons (70%–85%) have minimal or no symptoms, and untreated infections might last for months to years ( 86, 639, 648, 649 ). Although partners might be unaware of their infection, it is readily passed between sex partners during penile-vaginal sex ( 650 ). Among persons who are sexually active, the best way to prevent trichomoniasis is through consistent and correct use of condoms during all penile-vaginal sexual encounters ( 22 ). Partners of men who have been circumcised might have a somewhat reduced risk of T. vaginalis infection ( 56, 651 ). Douching is not recommended because it might increase the risk for vaginal infections, including trichomoniasis ( 652 )."

"text": "National Surveillance Data for Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, and Syphilis Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) remain a major public health challenge in the United States. CDC estimates that approximately 19 million new infections occur each year— almost half of them among young people 15 to 24 years of age 1. In addition to the burden on youth, women are also severely affected. Biological factors place women at greater risk than men for the severe health consequences of STDs. The two most commonly reported infectious diseases in America — chlamydia and gonorrhea — pose a particular risk to the health of women, as both can result in infertility if left untreated. Together, these diseases were reported in almost 1.5 million Americans in 2007, but the majority of cases continue to go undiagnosed. Both of these diseases, along with syphilis and herpes, have also been associated with increased HIV transmission, which is of particular concern among men who have sex with men (MSM) of all races and African-American men and women, where the HIV burden is now greatest. Reducing the preventable and persistent toll of STDs will require expanded access to prevention, treatment, and screening services for the diverse populations now at risk. This document summarizes 2007 national data on trends in three notifiable STDs — chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis — that are published in CDC’s report, Sexually Transmitted Disease Surveillance 2007. These data, which are useful for examining overall trends and trends among specific populations at risk, represent only a small proportion of the true national burden of STDs."

Related Editorial Patient information: See related handout on tuberculosis, written by the authors of this article. Latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) is a condition in which a person is infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis, but does not currently have active tuberculosis disease. An estimated 10 to 15 million persons in the United States have LTBI. Because 5 to 10 percent of persons with LTBI are at risk of progressing to active disease, identification and treatment of LTBI are essential for the elimination of tuberculosis. Screening is recommended for high-risk persons, including immigrants; residents and employees of congregate living facilities; and persons infected with human immunodeficiency virus. Targeted tuberculin skin testing remains the most acceptable method of LTBI screening. New tests are being developed, the most promising of which are in vitro interferon-gamma release assays. All screened persons found to have LTBI should be offered treatment, regardless of age."

History HGH by Other Names AIDS Wasting Lipodystrophy Thymic Function Risks and Side Effects Dollars and Fraud Selected Sources The story of human growth hormone (h GH) is colorful by drug industry standards. HGH, also known as somatropin, was first used to treat stunted growth in children. Later it was used in people with HIV disease to treat the gauntness of AIDS-related wasting and, more recently, the fat accumulations associated with lipodystrophy. HGH also may play a role in immune reconstitution. Outside the field of HIV, this very expensive therapy has multiple indications. Unapproved uses for h GH run the gamut from muscle enhancer to purported cure-all. Not surprisingly, the man-made hormone does not always perform as desired.

By 2000, the average life expectancy at birth had increased to 66 years and, if past trends continue, is projected to rise to 73 years by 2025 ( 1 ). These improvements in longevity have resulted from improved living conditions overall, advances in medical science, and a number of population-level interventions. However, major disparities persist. During the past decade, in low-income countries, average life expectancy at birth increased from 55 to 57 years (3.6%), while increasing from 78 to 80 years (2.6%) in high-income countries ( 2 ). Analogous to the recent MMWR report highlighting 10 public health achievements that occurred in the United States over the first 10 years of the new century, this report describes global public health achievements during the same period ( 3 ).

This page will be updated soon to reflect the medical consensus that “Undetectable = Untransmittable. ”The U. S.

Today, more than a million Americans have the virus. Being diagnosed with HIV was once a death sentence. Now, a 20-year-old man with HIV who begins treatment early can expect to live to 77 — the average lifespan of an average American man. The disease, which attacks the immune system, can be controlled by modern-day antiretroviral medications. Prevalence, Incidence, and Death Rates: Then and Now An estimated 1,155,792 Americans have HIV."

Cryptococcosis is believed to be acquired by inhalation of the infectious propagule from the environment.

Patient information: See related handout on testosterone therapy, written by the authors of this article. Testosterone treatment is controversial for men and even more so for women. Although long-term outcome data are not available, prescriptions for testosterone are becoming more common. Testosterone is used primarily to treat symptoms of sexual dysfunction in men and women and hot flashes in women. Potential benefits include improved libido, increased bone mass, and increased sense of well-being. In individuals with human immunodeficiency virus infection or other chronic diseases, testosterone has been shown to improve mood and energy levels, even in patients with normal testosterone levels."

"text": "HIV treatment is costly, especially for the sickest patients Michael Carter Published: 27 September 2010The average annual per patient cost of HIV treatment and care in the US was $19,912, investigators report in the online edition of AIDS. The analysis was based on 2006 figures. Costs were highest for those with a CD4 cell count below 50 cells/mm 3. This was due to the high cost of inpatient care. For patients with a CD4 cell count above this level antiretroviral therapy was the most expensive element of care. “HIV healthcare in the United States continues to be expensive,” comment the researchers. They warn that costs are likely to increase in coming years due to the ageing of the HIV population. Existing estimates of the costs associated with HIV treatment and care in the US date from the early years of antiretroviral therapy. In 1998, it was calculated that the annual cost of treating a patient with HIV was $18,300. Since then there have been major advances in antiretroviral therapy and HIV care and the prognosis of many patients is now excellent."

While the outlook has improved enormously in the past decades—with life expectancy now equal to that of the general population—HIV can still increase the risk of illness and death if left untreated or under-treated. With that in mind, here are eight tips that can help optimize your health and well-being while living with and managing an HIV infection. Dealing With a New Diagnosis Tomm L/i Stockphoto You've tested positive...now what? Finding out you have HIV may change your life, but doesn't have to control your world. Take a deep breath and start at the beginning. An HIV-positive diagnosis simply means that you have, in fact, been infected with HIV. And while you cannot be cured of HIV, you can receive treatment to ensure that the virus cannot damage your immune system and, in turn, make you vulnerable to a wide range of opportunistic infections. An HIV-positive diagnosis does not mean you have AIDS. AIDS is simply a stage in the disease where the body's immune system has collapsed and the risk of illness is high."

D., a Presbyterian minister. Tommy Wilson, as he was called until after his graduation from college, grew up in Augusta, Georgia, and Columbia, South Carolina. After a freshman year at Davidson College, 1873-74, he withdrew to prepare himself for Princeton, where he matriculated in 1875 as member of the Class of 1879. The next four years were a time of rapid maturing for the precocious youth. He supplemented a meager course fare with an ambitious program of reading; kept a commonplace book of passages from his reading; and organized a student club for discussion of public affairs. His peers recognized his leadership abilities, electing him speaker of the American Whig Society, secretary of the Football Association, president of the Baseball Association (he remained an avid supporter of college sports the rest of his life), and managing editor of the Princetonian. He made a number of loyal friends who later played crucial roles in advancing his career. From 1879 to 1883, Wilson studied law at the University of Virginia and practiced in Atlanta. Disillusioned by the tedium and materialism of damage suits, he entered the Johns Hopkins University in 1883 for graduate work in political science and history. His doctoral dissertation, Congressional Government (1885), brought immediate fame and academic appointments at Bryn Mawr College (1885-88) and Wesleyan University (1888-90)."

"text": "Home | CEE | 2nd edition | Bankruptcy B ankruptcy is common in America today. Notwithstanding two decades of largely uninterrupted economic growth, the annual bankruptcy filing rate has quintupled, topping 1.5 million individuals annually. Recent years also have seen several of the largest and most expensive corporate bankruptcies in history. This confluence of skyrocketing personal bankruptcies in a period of prosperity, an increasingly expensive and dysfunctional Chapter 11 reorganization system, and the macroeconomic competitive pressures of globalization has spurred legislative efforts to reform the bankruptcy code. History of Bankruptcy Early English bankruptcy laws were designed to assist creditors in collecting the debtor’s assets, not to protect the debtor or discharge (forgive) his debts. The Bankruptcy Clause of the U. S. Constitution also reflects this procreditor purpose of early bankruptcy law. Under the Articles of Confederation, the states alone governed debtor-creditor relations. This situation led to diverse and contradictory state laws, many of which were prodebtor laws designed to favor farmers (see regulation ). Like other provisions of the Constitution, the enumeration of the bankruptcy power in article I, section 8 was designed to encourage the development of a commercial republic and to temper the excesses of prodebtor state legislation that proliferated under the Articles of Confederation. As James Madison observed in Federalist number 42: The power of establishing uniform laws of bankruptcy is so intimately connected with the regulation of commerce, and will prevent so many frauds where the parties or their property may lie or be removed into different States that the expediency of it [i.e., Congress’s exclusive power to enact bankruptcy laws] seems not likely to be drawn into question."

One is a telephone survey taken among a nationally representative sample of 2,142 adults ages 18 and older. The other is an online survey, done in association with the Chronicle of Higher Education, among the presidents of 1,055 two-year and four-year private, public, and for-profit colleges and universities. ( See a description of our survey methodology. ) Here is a summary of key findings: Survey of the General Public Cost and Value. A majority of Americans (57%) say the higher education system in the United States fails to provide students with good value for the money they and their families spend. An even larger majority—75%—says college is too expensive for most Americans to afford. At the same time, however, an overwhelming majority of college graduates—86%—say that college has been a good investment for them personally. Monetary Payoff."

S. Women Ages 19-64 Will Be Insured When the Law Is Fully Implemented Add to My Library Print* Required. *** I thought you would be interested in this item from www.commonwealthfund.org. Privacy & Terms SENDTwenty percent of U. S. women (18.7 million) ages 19-64 were uninsured in 2010, up from 15 percent (12.8 million) in 2000, according to a new Commonwealth Fund report on women's health care. An additional 16.7 million women were underinsured in 2010, compared with 10.3 million in 2003. The report estimates that once fully implemented, the Affordable Care Act will cover nearly all women, reducing the uninsured rate among women from 20 percent to 8 percent. \"\" Women, particularly those in their childbearing years, are uniquely at risk for being unable to afford the care they need, having trouble with medical bills, and having high out-of-pocket costs,\"\" said Commonwealth Fund Vice President and report co-author Sara Collins. \"\" The Affordable Care Act will ensure that U. S. women have affordable, comprehensive health insurance that covers the services they need, including maternity care. And women will no longer have to worry about being denied coverage for a preexisting condition or that they will have to pay higher premiums because of their gender or health. \"\" In Oceans Apart: The Higher Health Costs of Women in the U. S. Compared to Other Nations, and How Reform Is Helping, Commonwealth Fund researchers examine differences in how women fare in the U. S. compared to women in 10 other countries—Australia, Canada, France, Germany, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, and the U. K.—all of which have universal health insurance coverage. The report finds that while uninsured women in the U. S. were most likely to face problems with medical bills and getting needed health care, even insured U. S. women were more likely to face these problems compared to women in other countries."

"text": "Home | CEE | 2nd edition | Natural Resources T he earth’s natural resources are finite, which means that if we use them continuously, we will eventually exhaust them. This basic observation is undeniable. But another way of looking at the issue is far more relevant to assessing people’s well-being. Our exhaustible and unreproducible natural resources, if measured in terms of their prospective contribution to human welfare, can actually increase year after year, perhaps never coming anywhere near exhaustion. How can this be? The answer lies in the fact that the effective stocks of natural resources are continually expanded by the same technological developments that have fueled the extraordinary growth in living standards since the Industrial Revolution. Innovation has increased the productivity of natural resources (e.g., increasing the gasoline mileage of cars). Innovation also increases the recycling of resources and reduces waste in their extraction and processing. And innovation affects the prospective output of natural resources (e.g., the coal still underneath the ground). If a scientific breakthrough in a given year increases the prospective output of the unused stocks of a resource by an amount greater than the reduction (via resources actually used up) in that year, then, in terms of human economic welfare, the stock of that resource will be larger at the end of the year than at the beginning."

"text": "First, the good news: Full-time faculty member salaries grew somewhat meaningfully year over year -- 1.4 percent, adjusted for inflation, according to the American Association of University Professors’ Annual Report on the Economic Status of the Profession, out today. Not adjusted for inflation, that’s about 2.2 percent across ranks and institution types, and 3.6 percent for continuing faculty members in particular. Those numbers are almost identical to last year, when pay bumps outpaced the rate of inflation for the first time since the Great Recession, suggesting that professor salaries have started to recover. The A. A. U. P. salary data, searchable by institution, rank, state and more are available here. Now the bad news, according to the report: faculty salaries remain much lower than many of those in the business world, and make up just a fraction of institutional expenditures, yet many Americans continue to blame professor pay for ballooning tuition. ( Think Vice President Joe Biden’s 2012 remarks about “escalating” academic salaries, or more recent suggestions from Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker about increasing professor productivity in the face of a proposed $300 million state funding cut to higher education -- as well as University of Wisconsin at Madison Chancellor Rebecca M. Blank’s snappy response .)A. A. U. P. tries to correct that perception about professor pay, among others, in this year’s faculty salary survey narrative, called “Busting the Myths.” While full-time faculty salaries have actually decreased 0.12 percent since the recession, adjusted for inflation, net tuition has risen 6.5 percent on average across institution types, the report says. Over the same period, A. A. U. P. says -- narrowing in on what it identifies as the real reason for skyrocketing tuition -- state appropriations have decreased 16 percent on average. And endowments have “eroded,” too. “The need to reclaim the public narrative about higher education has become increasingly apparent in recent years as misperceptions about faculty salaries and benefits, state support for public colleges and universities, and competition within higher education have multiplied,” reads the A. A. U. P. report. “"

Emile Wamsteker/Bloomberg PRINCETON — The base price of attending Princeton University will rise above $40,000 this fall for the first time in the Ivy League school’s history, campus officials announced today. The 3.9 percent tuition increase, approved by the university’s trustees in a closed-door meeting over the weekend, will be accompanied by similar hikes in room and board rates for the 2013-2014 school year. Undergraduates living on campus will pay $40,170 in annual tuition, plus $13,080 for a room and a full meal plan. That means the total cost of a four-year Princeton degree will surpass $200,000. But Princeton officials say few students will pay the full sticker price. The trustees are also increasing undergraduate financial aid by 4.6 percent to help cover the hikes. Sixty percent of Princeton undergraduates receive financial aid. \"\" Once again Princeton’s financial aid expenditures will rise faster than its fee package,\"\" said Christopher Eisgruber, Princeton’s provost. \"\" The growth of the scholarship budget to $121.4 million will maintain Princeton’s commitment to making its education affordable to any student who is admitted, regardless of ability to pay and without the need for loans. \"\""

"text": "\"WHY COLLEGES COST TOO MUCHBy ERIK LARSON Sunday, June 24, 2001Tweet Read Later Email Print Share Reprints Follow @TIMEWhen I graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 1976, the base tuition was $3,790. I paid the bill with a combination of cash from my parents, wages from my summer job as a park supervisor and from a school job cleaning pig sperm from laboratory beakers, and a bank loan guaranteed by New York State. I still managed to have a pretty good time. In addition to learning to recite Pushkin in Russian, I got to experience such wonders of campus life as seeing a friend jump up on a barroom table and pull her bra out through the sleeve of her blouse. The rapid tuition increases that occurred after my graduation were only vaguely interesting to me, like reading about a bank robbery in a distant town. Now, however, at the age of 43, with three smart daughters and having just begun to save for college, I find myself acutely interested. Make that horrified. This year Penn, a private institution, is charging students tuition and fees totaling $21,130. Add to that the cost of room and board, books and supplies, health insurance and personal expenses, such as travel between school and home, and the actual total--as Penn recently informed students accepted for early admission--comes to $31,582. This is real money."

Engineering graduate schools provide students opportunities to seek advanced careers and earn higher wages. Show Me Schools View 10 Popular Schools »Average Tuition for Graduate Engineering Tuition costs for a graduate degree program in engineering are determined by the type of engineering program, as well as the type of the academic institution. Public colleges, such as state universities, often have lower tuition rates than private universities. Many graduate schools also charge fees, such as application, registration and book fees, which increase the total cost of attendance. Determining average tuition costs is difficult, since rates vary greatly among institutions, and some schools even fluctuate rates per semester. U. S. News & World Report ranks public and private engineering graduate schools annually based on the quality of the program, teachers and student outcomes. In 2014, the annual in-state, full-time tuition rates (including fees) for the top 5 graduate engineering schools were: $44,720 for the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, $47,073 for Stanford University, $11,220 for the University of California - Berkeley, $41,000 for Carnegie Mellon University and $41,790 for the California Institute of Technology. Tuition and Fee Waivers Many schools offer graduate students a waiver on fees and may offer partial or full tuition waivers for certain students or programs. Eligibility requirements vary by institution."

Medical school can cost a student hundreds of thousands of dollars — but may also lead to some of the highest-paid careers available. Hear from Noodle Expert Paul Bodine what kind of ROI you can expect, and how to determine if the investments of time and money are worth it. For many students, a career in medicine is truly a calling — but the cost of getting there can cause even the most committed to pause. Given debt loads that will easily run into six figures, is it realistic for med school graduates to come out ahead in their career Return on Investment (ROI)?

Some have scored as much as $680,000 depending on the student and the hiring company. It’s not easy pinning down exact MBA salary numbers because it’s such a varied field. An MBA can be an accountant, marketing manager, CFO or HR manager. That said, $100,000 is a solid middle-of-the-road figure. Students who graduate from one of the top ten business schools will see a higher median pay of $140K. After ten years of solid work, many MBA graduates can see their pay rise into the $200,000 to $500,000 range or even higher. An MBA is a two year add-on for a four year business degree. By some accounts, it nearly doubles the starting salary of many business jobs. We break down all the MBA salary facts below."

"text": "Recent news about the rising costs of college has been nothing short of dark and dreary. By all accounts, the price tag of higher education has been skyrocketing — and student bank accounts simply cannot keep up. Government data show that college costs for the 2011–12 academic year were approximately $14,300 at public institutions and $37,800 at private, nonprofit institutions — that’s a 28% to 40% increase since the 2001-2002 school year, even after adjusting for inflation. It’s no wonder many students can’t afford college without borrowing for the privilege — and it shows. With a collective $1.2 trillion in student loan debt, millennials are now reportedly putting off marriage, home ownership, and starting a family, just so they can service their barely-manageable debt loads. Some students even claim that student loans are holding them back from achieving the American dream, and it’s easy to see why. Is a College Degree Worth It? With nothing but bad news about college costs and student loans in the media, it’s equally easy to see why some high school graduates might be tempted to skip college altogether. But, as most experts agree, that isn’t necessarily the answer. A new paper from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York shows that the ROI (return on investment) for a bachelor’s degree has hovered around the 14%-15% range since 2000, making it a sound investment choice in most cases."

Despite a hefty price tag to obtain a dental school education, recent studies show that the career field proves a better investment than many other professional pathways. Additionally, with an increasing acknowledgement of the importance of oral health in relation to overall health, the public demand for dentists will continue to rise. Choosing to become a dentist involves much more than satisfying educational requirements to earn an attractive salary. Prospective dental school students must weigh the pros and cons associated with the time commitment, work environment, potential work-related stress, and overall job satisfaction of the profession. Not everyone will encounter the exact same educational experience; therefore, the ROI (Return on Investment) for a dental degree will differ for every graduate. The following information highlights key points regarding the total cost versus the rewards related to pursuing a dental school education: The Average Cost of a Dental School Education The total cost to pay for a dental school education varies for each student, as a number of factors come into play which can affect the overall debt owed after graduation, as well as the additional expenses paid while pursuing an advanced degree. For the most part, the tuition cost for four years of dental school in the U. S. ranges in price from $21,600 (in-state) and $64,800 (non-resident) for a public school in Texas to nearly $300,000 for the highest-priced private institutions. These figures do not include the associated school fees, which typically include lab dues, preclinical supplies, books, dental kits, scrubs, and the cost to take certain exams. A new dentist’s overall ROI for a dental school education also increases and decreases regarding the outcome of the following variables: Starting tuition cost."

Accounting Jobs at CPA Firms Corporate Accounting Jobs Getting the Job Introduction to Accounting Jobs and Opportunities Top There exists today a wide range of job opportunities in the field of accounting. Entry-level jobs are dependent on the extent of your education. Positions of bookkeeper and accounting clerk, for example, require a high school diploma and perhaps a two-year associate degree in accounting. The position of accountant demands that you have a more thorough understanding of financial concepts and so requires a minimum of a four-year bachelor's degree in accounting. Some accountants go on to become certified public accountants, or CPAs, as this opens up additional job opportunities for them. To become a CPA, you will need to earn college credits over and above your accounting major, gain some work experience, and, most importantly, you will need to pass the CPA Exam."

One of those areas is the medical field, and more often than not, the demand for qualified doctors and nurses far outweighs the number of people available. Some states are in worse shape than others, and one of those is Georgia, which has a very low nurse to patient ratio. That has led to a proliferation of good nursing schools in Georgia, and considering that tuition fees in the state tend to be lower than many other places, that, combined with the job outlook make nursing a very good career choice. The first step in that career is selecting the Georgia nursing school that best fits your budget and training needs, and with 37 accredited nursing schools in Georgia to choose from, that may not be an easy task. Certainly, that choice can be narrowed down somewhat, depending on where you will be based in the state, and which particular field of study you opt to go with. * Special Offer – Click Here To Learn More About Georgia Nursing Schools That Are Offering Online Nursing Degrees!What Training do Nursing Schools in Georgia Specialize in? Nursing training is normally split into four distinct categories; adult nurse, pediatric, mental health and learning disabilities. Depending on what you are looking to specialize in, reviewing the curriculum’s offered by all the different nursing schools in Georgia will help you narrow down your search even further. It should be noted that before settling on one of those four, you will most likely be required to complete one full year of training before branching off into a particular specialty."

Universities in the US have gotten more expensive due to several factors: Reduced state funding for public institutions. It used to be that an student could go to a same-state public university, like UMass Amherst, UC Berkeley or City University of New York, and pay little to nothing in tuition, fees and so on. You could work a part-time job at minimum wage and afford to go to college, incuding room and board. However, cash-starved states have slashed their higher education budgets. Now, even community colleges cost a couple thousand dollars per semester. Major capital improvements. There are a lot of shiny new buildings on many college campuses."

"text": "It’s no shocker that raising a child can put a strain on family finances. But seeing the total cost may leave you stunned. The average cost of raising a child born in 2013 up until age 18 for a middle-income family in the U. S. is approximately $245,340 (or $304,480, adjusted for projected inflation), according to the latest annual “Cost of Raising A Child” report from the U. S. Department of Agriculture. The estimate is 1.8 percent higher than the previous year. That equates to roughly $12,800 - $14,970 per child per year for a two-parent family with a median annual income between $61,530 and $106,540. The annual cost can vary based on factors like the child’s age, the number of children in the family and the family’s income and location. “In today’s economy, it’s important to be prepared with as much information as possible when planning for the future ,” said USDA Food, Nutrition and Consumer Services Under Secretary Kevin Concannon, per a written statement issued alongside the report. “ In addition to giving families with children an indication of expenses they might want to be prepared for, the report is a critical resource for state governments in determining child support guidelines and foster care payments. ”Housing is the top expense, accounting for $73,600 or about 30 percent of the total cost of raising a child. The next-biggest expenses are child care and education (18 percent) and food (16 percent)."

Child care is more affordable in Ohio than 39 other states, but it remains the largest expense of many working parents. Costs can be especially burdensome to single parents and working families with multiple children. Quality child care can make a significant difference in a child’s development. It helps children learn important social, emotional, intellectual and physical skills. “Quality care has long-lasting impact on a child’s development, behavior and cognitive abilities,” said Renuka Mayadev, executive director of the Children’s Defense Fund — Ohio. “ Quality care is related to higher academic achievement. ”But some smaller child care providers are not regulated and are not subject to oversight, which increases the chances that children will receive low-quality care, experts said. In 2011, infant care at centers in Ohio on average cost $7,889 per year, according to an August report by Child Care Aware of America. By comparison, annual tuition at Wright State University is about $8,354."

The cost of raising a child is usually determined according to a formula that accounts for major areas of expenditure, such as food, housing, and clothing. However, any given family's actual expenses may differ from the estimates. For example, the rent on a home does not usually change when the tenants have another child, so the family's housing costs may remain the same. In other cases, the home may be too small, in which case the family might move to a larger home at a higher cost.

Raising a kid isn’t cheap, and a new report has detailed just how much it costs to raise a child from birth through age 17. Parents can expect to spend around $13,000 a year per child, according to a report released Monday by the Department of Agriculture. By the time kids are 17, parents will be looking at a total tab of nearly a quarter of a million dollars. A middle-income, married couple with two children is estimated to spend $233,610 to raise a child born in 2015 -- and that's without college expenses. The cost varies by income level, location, and family size, but the big expenses that come along with raising a child are similar across the board. Biggest expenses Housing accounts for 29% of the total cost of raising a child for middle-income families, primarily due to the cost of an extra bedroom. Food was the second biggest expense, accounting for 18% of the total cost of child-rearing. Child care also tends to take a big bite out of parents’ budgets, costing an average of $37,378 per child."

The cost of having a child has hit an all time high By Kara Gammell9:37AM GMT 24 Jan 2013Follow The cost of raising a child has hit an all-time high, according to a new report. Figures from insurer LV='s annual Cost of a Child Report show that the cost of a bringing a child up to the age of 21 has reached £222,458 - more than £4,000 higher than last year and up £82,000 on ten years ago. The insurer estimates that this is set to reach £350,000 by 2023 if costs continue to increase at the same rate. The report will be a further blow for hard-working families as cash-strapped parents continue to struggle with rising household bills and wage freezes and cuts to child benefit. The right to receive the payments, worth £20.30 a week for the first child and £13.40 for further children, was removed earlier this month from households with one earner on a salary of more than £60,000 and reduced for families where one member is paid more than £50,000.

IRD came up with a round figure in 2009 for raising a child until the age of 18 of $250,000, or about $14,000 per year. And more recently a group of researchers produced some interesting statistics about the price of procreation which were presented to an official statistics forum last year, ostensibly to help the Government to review the formula being used by Inland Revenue to calculate child support payments. The paper Costs of Raising Children found that the average costs of children vary widely depending on the age of the child, households' income and the number of children per home. But despite the different factors which altered the costs up or down, the study turned up a final figure of an average spend of $403 a week, for two children, in a modest income home."

Surging childcare fees and expenses linked to education mean the basic cost of bringing up a child in the UK has risen 50 per cent faster than inflation over more than a decade. The study, carried out by the Centre of Economic and Business Research (CEBR) for the insurer Liverpool Victoria (also known as LV=) suggests that parents have cut back spending on toys and even food but any savings have been swallowed up by other rising costs. It also points to evidence that the expense of raising children could be shaping the population, with some parents actively postponing of ruling out having a second child because of the cost.

According to a report from Child Care Aware of America Thursday, the annual cost of infant care increased roughly 2% last year and ranged from about $4,600 in Mississippi to $15,000 in Massachusetts. Meanwhile, the cost of providing care for a four-year-old increased by more than 4% and ranged between $3,900 a year in Mississippi to almost $11,700 a year in Massachusetts. For most parents, child care is by far their largest household expense. And the growing costs have put a tremendous strain on their budgets. In almost half of all states, the cost of center-based care for one child exceeded annual median rent payments, the report said. And when two children are factored in, the costs exceeded rent payments in all 50 states. Child Care Aware also found that in 35 states, the cost to provide center-based care for an infant was higher than in-state tuition and fees for one year at a four-year public college.

Lucy Schrader, MA Educational and Counseling Psychology, Associate State Specialist, University of Missouri Extension & Marilyn Preston, MA, Doctoral Student, Human Development and Family Studies, University of Missouri Raising children takes a great deal of time, energy and resources. Parents, educators, organizations and governments may ask, “What does it cost to raise a child?” The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has estimated the annual costs of raising a child from birth to age 17 since 1960 and shares the numbers in the Expenditures on Children by Families report. The answer varies by household (two-parent or single household), numbers of children in the household and levels of income. In 1960, a moderate-income, two-parent family spent about $182,857 (in 2009 dollars) to raise a child to age 17. A similar family in 2009 spent about $222,360 (an average of $13,080 per year)—a 22 percent real increase. Expenses include housing, food, transportation, clothing, health care, education/childcare, and other miscellaneous expenses (personal care items, recreation expenses, etc). Costs do not include college expenses or indirect costs (such as a parent taking work leave to raise the child). Housing costs have been the largest part of total expenses for raising children (31-35 percent of child-rearing expenses)."

Contact us with questions about your situation The Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program serves as an income source of last resort for elderly or disabled individuals, including blind or disabled children. In determining the benefit amount for a child, the program excludes one-third of child support payments from countable income. Legislation reauthorizing the 1996 welfare reform law contains provisions that would encourage states to allow children receiving Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) to keep more of the child support paid by an absent parent. These potential changes provide impetus to revisit the way the SSI program treats child support. This brief was prepared by Susan Wilschke and Richard Balkus of the Social Security Administration's Office of Disability and Income Assistance Policy. Questions about the analysis should be directed to them at 202-358-6275. The findings and conclusions presented in this brief are those of the authors and do not necessarily represent the views of the Social Security Administration. This policy brief analyzes several options for increasing the SSI exclusion for child support."

One day at the Magic Kingdom up to $99February 22, 2014, 7:18 PM · It's already that time of year again — time for the annual Walt Disney World theme park ticket price increase. According to the Orlando Sentinel, Disney World will raise its one-day, one-park ticket prices by $4, taking the price of a one-day ticket to the Magic Kingdom to $99, with a day at Epcot, Disney's Hollywood Studios or Disney's Animal Kingdom rising to $94. If this price increase seems like it's coming earlier this year, it is. Last year, Disney raised its ticket prices in June, with prices rising at both the Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resorts. Last year's increase raised one-day tickets from $89 a day for all four WDW parks. The four-day base ticket went up $23. No word yet on what the new price of that ticket will be. The new prices go into effect tomorrow (Sunday). We've not yet heard any news of a Disneyland price increase for this year, so this round of increases appears to be for Walt Disney World only."

"text": "Even if you’ve got baby fever, new data out today from the U. S. Department of Agriculture could have you reaching for the prophylactics. For a middle income family (before tax $61,530 to $106,540), a child adds an average $14,970 in annual expenses to the bottom line. And to raise that kiddo born in 2013 to age 18 will cost on average $245,340 in total—up 1.8% from last year. Yikes. But before you go telling your honey you have a headache, keep in mind that four million babies are born in the U. S. each year, and most of their parents adjust just fine to the new costs. And if you wait until you feel completely financially ready, you may never realize that bundle of joy. “Having a child is an exciting but scary step, and money can be a big part of that worry,” says financial planner Matt Becker, father of two and founder of the blog Mom and Dad Money. “ I wouldn’t dive in without considering the financial consequences, but I also wouldn’t let them scare you off. ”You’ll just need to make room for in your budget for baby. These five steps can help you feel secure enough to add to your family.1."

"text": "Report Immigration The Fiscal Cost of Unlawful Immigrants and Amnesty to the U. S. Taxpayer May 6, 2013 Over an hour read Download Report Authors: Jason Richwine, Ph. D. and Robert Rector Summary This paper provides a fiscal distribution analysis of households headed by unlawful immigrants: individuals who reside in the U. S. in violation of federal law. The paper measures the total government benefits and services received by unlawful immigrant households and the total taxes paid. The difference between benefits received and taxes paid represents the total resources transferred by government on behalf of unlawful immigrants from the rest of society. Key Takeaways There are approximately 3.7 million unlawful immigrant households in the U. S. These households impose a net fiscal burden of around $54.5 billion per year. Amnesty for unlawful immigrants can pose large fiscal costs for U. S. taxpayers including public education, welfare benefits, and other benefits and services. Policymakers must ensure that the interaction of welfare and other financial transfer programs with immigration does not expand the fiscally dependent population. Copied Select a Section 1 /0Executive Summary Unlawful immigration and amnesty for current unlawful immigrants can pose large fiscal costs for U. S. taxpayers. Government provides four types of benefits and services that are relevant to this issue: Direct benefits. These include Social Security, Medicare, unemployment insurance, and workers’ compensation."

"text": "When it comes to children and finances, what is every parent’s goal? It’s to raise young adults that can become financially independent. Unfortunately, surveys have shown low success rates. Only 23 percent of 20-somethings consider themselves financially independent, according to a survey by PNC. One of the largest barriers to achieving independence is the rising costs of college tuition. A recent study shows similar outcomes between traditional learning and interactive online learning. Don Bayley/i Stockphoto According to the US Department of Education, the average cost of a year at public school is $15,100 and $32,900 for private institutions. Those costs are more than outpacing inflation and wage growth. Today, there is more outstanding student loan debt than credit card debt.

( Tom Merton / Getty Images/Caiaimage)Peter Frost Contact Reporter Tribune reporter The cost to raise a child is on the rise The cost for a middle-income family to raise a child born in 2013 to age 18 rose to $245,340, up 1.8 percent from the previous year, according to a government report released Monday. Housing comprised the largest expense at 30 percent, followed by child care and education (18 percent), food (16 percent), and transportation (14 percent), the U. S. Agriculture Department's annual report said. Families living in urban areas in the Midwest had a slightly lower cost than the national average, or $240,570. Families in the urban Northeast had the highest cost of raising a child to adulthood: $282,480. That was followed by the urban West at $261,330. Households in the urban South and in rural areas spent less on average. Adjusted for inflation, the cost of raising a child born last year will be about $304,480, on average, for the average middle-income family, which the government defined as those with pre-tax annual income between $61,300 and $106,140. Costs are lower for lower-income families. Families with incomes below $61,300, for example, can expect to spend an average of $176,550 in 2013 dollars."

Parents across the UK spend on average £311 a month on childcare, compared to £77 on food and nearly £60 on holidays, according to the latest study from Halifax. The total cost of bringing up a child averages at £600 a month per child or £7,500 a year, it found. London is the most expensive city to raise a child, with childcare costs in the capital standing at £386 – nearly a £100 more expensive than in North England at £289 - bringing the cost of raising a child to secondary school to a higher than average £10,000 a year.+2Spending time.. and money: The cost of raising a child from 0 to 11 years old is on average £85,000 in the UKThe second most expensive region for childcare costs is the South, with costs standing at £330 a month, followed by the East, where parents incur an average of £310 a month for childcare. Parents in the capital also end up paying nearly twice as much to take their children on holiday than their peers in East of England, and they pay out over two and a half times the average on furniture for their child.

That’s going to run $465,516 by the time your toddler is ready for higher education. College costs are increasing at about two times the rate of inflation each year – a trend that is expected to continue indefinitely. Here’s what you can expect to pay for each year of tuition, fees, and room and board by the time your kids (or grandkids) are ready to head off to college (assuming a steady 6% college cost inflation rate): Note: Want to see an estimate of how much it will cost to send your child or grandchild to college? Use the College Cost Calculator at the College Savings Plans Network. Keep in mind, these numbers represent a single year of costs; the number of years your child attends college will depend on the degree (s) he or she is seeking. While many students will qualify for financial aid, scholarships and grants to help cover college costs, there are still a number of ways to further reduce college costs. One of the easiest ways is to invest the money you’ve set aside for your child or grandchild’s college years in tax-smart investment vehicles."

"text": "Agricultural Water Management Volume 41, Issue 1, June 1999, Pages 21-39Assessment of the effect of tie-ridging on smallholder maize yields in Malawi K. A Wiyo J Feyen Show morehttps://doi.org/10.1016/S0378-3774 (99)00014-1 Get rights and content Abstract Tie-ridging is being promoted in Malawi as an on-field rainwater harvesting technique to ensure a maize ( Zea mais L.) crop during a dry or drought year. Resource-poor smallholder farmers are likely to take up tie-ridging if it increases and not decreases maize yield in most years. A numerical study was conducted to calculate the expected maize yield gain due to tie-ridging taking into account the probability of occurrence of drought, dry, normal and wet years (climatic uncertainty). Mean yields due to tie-ridging in drought, dry, normal and wet years at different N levels were derived from observed smallholder maize yield data using a linear nitrogen response model and field-observed retained rainwater amounts in tie-ridged fields. Simulation results indicate that tie-ridging will result in hybrid maize yield gain in a drought year (1050 kg ha −1) and dry year (560 kg ha −1 ). There will be a hybrid maize yield loss in a normal year (350 kg ha −1) and wet year (700 kg ha −1 ). For local maize, there will be a yield gain in a drought year (500 kg ha −1 ), dry year (220 kg ha −1) and normal year (120 kg ha −1 ). There will be a slight yield loss in a wet year (60 kg ha −1 ). Considering observed probability of the occurrence of drought, dry, normal and wet years in Malawi, the study reveals that there will be no hybrid maize yield gain in any coming year with tie-ridging. For local maize, the expected yield gain in any coming year was positive (133.3 kg ha −1) but this gain is less than the minimum gain required considering the opportunity cost of labour (142.5 kg ha −1 )."

The client for whom he was working at the time chose not to create a 401 (k) plan. ["

"text": "\"CMA » Topics » Retirement Benefits This excerpt taken from the CMA DEF 14A filed Apr 10, 2009. Retirement Benefits Comerica provides retirement benefits to attract and retain employees and to encourage employees to save money for their retirement. The Company sponsors a tax-qualified defined benefit retirement plan that provides a retirement benefit based on a salaried employee's years of service and final average monthly pay. Final average monthly pay is a participant's highest aggregate monthly compensation for 60 consecutive calendar months within the last 120 calendar months before the earlier of retirement or separation from service, divided by 60. Employees hired on or after January 1, 2007 are not eligible to participate. The Company also sponsors a Benefit Equalization Plan for Employees of Comerica Incorporated (the \"\"SERP\"\") who participate in the tax qualified defined benefit retirement plan to restore benefits that are capped under such plan due to Internal Revenue Service (\"\"IRS\"\") limits on annual compensation, annual benefit amounts and the absence of top-heavy accruals to key employees if the plan becomes top-heavy. Comerica provides the SERP in keeping with competitive practices in the external marketplace. The Company also maintains a 401 (k) savings plan for all employees. Prior to 2007, Comerica provided two types of matching with respect to participant contributions. The first type of matching was called a core match."

"text": "\"Limited-purpose FSA FAQs What is a limited-purpose flexible spending account? A limited-purpose health flexible spending account (referred to as a limited-purpose FSA) is much like a typical, general-purpose health FSA. However, under a limited-purpose FSA, eligible expenses are limited to qualifying dental and vision expenses for you, your spouse, and your eligible dependents. Here’s how a limited-purpose FSA works. Money is set aside from your paycheck before taxes are taken out. You can then use your pre-tax FSA dollars to pay for eligible vision or dental expenses throughout the plan year. You save money on expenses you’re already paying for, like dental checkups, vision exams, eyeglasses, and much more. Why is it a good idea to have a limited-purpose FSA? IRS rules do not allow you to contribute to a health savings account (HSA) if you are covered by any non-qualifying health plan, including a general-purpose health FSA. By limiting FSA reimbursements to dental and vision care expenses, you (or your spouse) remain eligible to participate in both a limited-purpose FSA and an HSA."

"text": "Benefit Plan Limits for 2014With the New Year quickly approaching, we have prepared for you a quick reference guide of updated benefit plan limits for 2014. The list includes announcements from the Social Security Administration (SSA) and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) regarding defined benefit and defined contribution plans, other workplace retirement plan limits, and Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs). Announcement On Oct. 30, 2013, the SSA announced that the maximum amount of earnings subject to the Social Security payroll tax will increase to $117,000 from $113,700, beginning Jan. 1, 2014. The IRS announced on Oct. 31, 2013, cost-of-living adjustments for the 2014 tax year that apply to dollar limits for 401 (k) and other defined contribution retirement plans, as well as defined benefit pension plans. Some plan limits will remain unchanged because the increase in the Consumer Price Index did not meet the statutory thresholds for adjustment. However, other limits will rise in 2014. The announcement highlighted the following: The 401 (k), 403 (b), and certain 457 plan elective deferral limits in 2014 will remain at $17,500; the catch-up contribution limit will stay at $5,500. The annual defined contribution limit from all sources under Code Section 415 (c) will rise to $52,000 from $51,000. The maximum amount of employee compensation that can be considered in calculating contributions to defined contribution and defined benefit plans will increase to $260,000 from $255,000. The limit used in the definition of ”key employee‘ for purposes of certain nondiscrimination tests and determining whether a plan is top-heavy will increase to $170,000 from $165,000."

You need money to enjoy your retirement years, and that takes careful planning. Maintaining your pre-retirement living standard usually requires an income from various sources. The State of Connecticut understands this and provides you with retirement benefits through the Connecticut State Employees Retirement System. The State also offers you the option of participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan and 403 (b) Program retirement savings plans to supplement your retirement income from the State Employees Retirement System; information on these and other miscellaneous employee benefits can be obtained on the Office of the State Comptroller’s website at www.osc.ct.gov under Employees Resources. The State Employees Retirement System is based on a Connecticut state law enacted in 1939. Since 1939, the law has been changed by legislation and collective bargaining. Current plan provisions are in effect until June 30, 2022 in accordance with the 2011 agreement between the State of Connecticut and the State Employees Bargaining Agent Coalition."

"title": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defined_benefit_plan\nDefined benefit pension plan",
"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Defined benefit plan)navigation search A defined benefit pension plan is a type of pension plan in which an employer/sponsor promises a specified pension payment, lump-sum (or combination thereof) on retirement that is predetermined by a formula based on the employee's earnings history, tenure of service and age, rather than depending directly on individual investment returns. Traditionally, many governmental and public entities, as well as a large number of corporations, provided defined benefit plans, sometimes as a means of compensating workers in lieu of increased pay. [ 1]A defined benefit plan is 'defined' in the sense that the benefit formula is defined and known in advance. Conversely, for a \"\" defined contribution retirement saving plan\"\", the formula for computing the employer's and employee's contributions is defined and known in advance, but the benefit to be paid out is not known in advance. [ 2]In the United States, 26 U. S. C. § 414 (j) specifies a defined benefit plan to be any pension plan that is not a defined contribution plan, where a defined contribution plan is any plan with individual accounts. A traditional pension plan that defines a benefit for an employee upon that employee's retirement is a defined benefit plan. The most common type of formula used is based on the employee's terminal earnings (final salary). Under this formula, benefits are based on a percentage of average earnings during a specified number of years at the end of a worker's career. In the private sector, defined benefit plans are often funded exclusively by employer contributions. For very small companies with one owner and a handful of younger employees, the business owner generally receives a high percentage of the benefits."

TSP contributions are reported by pay date, which is established by the participant’s employing agency and represents the date employees receive payment for a particular pay period. The pay date determines the year for which contributions are applied to the IRS contribution limits, and may be different than the date on which contributions are actually received and posted to the account. To see contribution limits from previous years, see the Historical Information section of tsp.gov. Elective Deferral Limit (Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 402 (g))The IRC § 402 (g) elective deferral limit for 2017 is $18,000. This limit applies to the traditional (tax-deferred) and Roth contributions made by an employee during the calendar year. The combined total of traditional (tax-deferred) and Roth contributions made during the year cannot exceed the elective deferral limit. This limit does not apply to Agency Automatic (1%) Contributions, Agency Matching Contributions, catch-up contributions, traditional contributions made from tax-exempt pay, or amounts transferred or rolled over into the TSP. The TSP is not allowed to accept a contribution that exceeds the elective deferral limit for the year. If a payroll office submits a contribution that exceeds the elective deferral limit, the TSP will reject the entire employee contribution and all associated matching contributions, and will send a report to the payroll office showing the additional contributions allowed for the year."

"text": "\"FAQ: Pension Plans and ERISAQ: What is ERISA? The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) is intended to protect the retirement assets of American workers by setting minimum standards for pension plans in the private sector. For employers that maintain pension plans, ERISA sets certain standards such as how long you must work before you have a \"\"non-forfeitable\"\" interest in your pension and whether your spouse has a right to claim at least some of your pension upon your death. While the law doesn't compel businesses to provide a pension, it does require those that do to meet certain minimum standards. Generally, ERISA doesn't dictate how much money should be put into a pension plan. Q: What are defined benefit and defined contribution pension plans? There are generally two main kinds of retirement plans. A defined benefit plan promises you a specific amount at retirement, paid monthly. The plan may state this promised benefit as an exact dollar amount, or (more commonly) it may calculate a benefit through a plan formula that considers factors such as salary and years of service. A defined contribution plan, meanwhile, doesn't promise a specific benefit amount at retirement."

California and majority of other states do not offer any grace time to car owners. Late payments of annual registration fees lead to penalties. The more you delay your renewal payment, the higher will be the fine amount. It is in your best interest to understand the annual renewal registration late fees and penalties. Expiration Date Carefully check the registration card for the exact date of registration expiry to avoid the late penalty charges. Within 60 days before the expiration date, if you do not get a billing notice for the renewal fees, you should immediately contact the DMV to find out the renewal charges. Late penalty fines are charged in addition to the outstanding fee as well. Calculation of Late Renewal Penalty Charges If your renewal registration fee is overdue by 10 days or less, a fine of 10 percent of the total annual outstanding vehicle license fee, plus 10 percent of the annual weight fee if applicable, is charged along with the original renewal fee. If the amount is overdue by more than 11 days but less than 30 days, a fine of 20 percent of the vehicle license fee and 20 percent of the weight fee is charged."

For an explanation of our Advertising Policy, visit this page. As a frequent international traveler, I appreciate anything that helps me save time in the immigration line. Today, TPG Contributor Richard Kerr explains how you can enjoy the benefits of Global Entry expedited security without having to pay extra. A couple years ago, I arrived in Atlanta from Tokyo aboard a full Delta 747-400. As 375 of my fellow passengers and I approached immigration, we were disappointed to see just two officials on duty: one for Americans and one for foreigners. I glanced over at the unused Global Entry kiosks and told myself this would be the last time I stand in line entering my home country. In this post, I’ll cover the basics of Global Entry — the program that has since come to my rescue in such situations — and explain the different ways you can receive a credit for the $100 enrollment fee. Global Entry can save international travelers many precious hours over the course of a year."

"text": "\"DEFINITION of 'Level Load'An annual charge deducted from an investor's mutual fund assets to pay for distribution and marketing costs for as long as the investor holds the fund. For the most part, this fee is paid to intermediaries for selling a fund's shares to the retail public. Also known as a \"\"12b-1 fee\"\". Next Up Load Fund12B-1 Plan C-Share B-Share BREAKING DOWN 'Level Load'Unlike the one-time front-end (Class A shares) or back-end (Class B shares) loads, level loads (Class C shares) are applied annually as a fixed percentage of a mutual fund's average net assets. Also, unlike front-end and back-end sales charges, these 12b-1 fees are included in a fund's operating expenses. While the load percentage doesn't change, if the net asset value of the fund increases through capital appreciation, the dollar value of the load will actually become more expensive and continuously erode the fund's return. Total 12b-1 fees are capped by law at 1%. Generally, this fee will be pegged at 0.25%, which allows funds that don't exceed this percentage to be classified as no-load funds. This bit of magic, as well as the dubious necessity for the 12b-1 in a robust mutual fund environment, has put the justification for continued use of level load under considerable consumer and regulatory scrutiny. RELATED TERMSLoad Fund Load funds charge fees of less than 1% in order to compensate ...12B-1 Plan A 12B-1 plan is a plan structured by mutual fund companies for ...

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Mutual fund fees and expenses are charges that may be incurred by investors who hold mutual funds. Running a mutual fund involves costs, including shareholder transaction costs, investment advisory fees, and marketing and distribution expenses. Funds pass along these costs to investors in a number of ways. Some funds impose \"\"shareholder fees\"\" directly on investors whenever they buy or sell shares. In addition, every fund has regular, recurring, fund-wide \"\"operating expenses\"\". Funds typically pay their operating expenses out of fund assets—which means that investors indirectly pay these costs. Seemingly negligible, fees and expenses can substantially reduce an investor's earnings. For the reasons cited above, it is important for a prospective investor to compare the fees of the various funds under consideration. Investors should also compare fees against industry benchmarks and averages. There are many different types of fees, as discussed below."

"text": "Subtitle C: High Cost Mortgages – More than HOEPAJuly 2, 2015 Featured, Regulatory Comments Off on Subtitle C: High Cost Mortgages – More than HOEPABy Mary Thorson Wright When the U. S. Congress passed the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd- Frank) in 2010, the mortgage industry was no stranger to ‘high cost mortgage’ rules. The Home Ownership and Equity Protection Act (HOEPA) was enacted in 1994 as an amendment to the Truth in Lending Act (TILA) to address abusive practices in refinancing and home equity mortgage loans with high interest rates or high fees. Since 1994, loans that met HOEPA’s high-cost coverage tests were subject to special disclosure requirements and restrictions on loan terms, and borrowers in high-cost mortgages benefited from enhanced remedies for violations of the law. The provisions of TILA, including HOEPA, are implemented in the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s (CFPB) Regulation Z – Truth in Lending. On the state level, many legislatures passed ‘HOEPA-type’ rules that echoed or further expanded consumer protections and regulatory requisites for high-cost mortgages made in or made to consumers in those states. HOEPA and Dodd-Frank In response to the 2008 economic depression and mortgage crisis, Congress amended HOEPA through Title XIV of Dodd-Frank, the Mortgage Reform and Anti-Predatory Lending Act (MRAL), and, specifically, high cost mortgage requirements are covered in Subtitle C. Although ‘predatory lending’ is not specifically defined or addressed, the provisions of the MRAL are intended to limit discretionary practices that were perceived to contribute to predatory lending. The amendments did expand the coverage of HOEPA and added consumer protections for high-cost mortgages, including a specific definition of ‘high cost mortgage;’ restrictions on balloon payment loans; prohibitions on loan default, late fees, accelerated debt, and financing for prepayment fees or penalties, points, or fees; and structuring to avoid the requirements. HOEPA Coverage Expanded Dodd-Frank expanded HOEPA in specific ways: Inclusion of New Loan Types – MRAL expands the types of loans that may be subject to HOEPA by removing previous exclusions (defined under Regulation Z to mean purchase money mortgage loans) for “residential mortgage transactions” and added home equity lines of credit (HELOCs) as potentially covered loans. The term high-cost mortgage now may include both a closed-end credit transaction and an open-end credit plan secured by the consumer’s principal dwelling. Reverse mortgages, construction loans, loans originated and financed by Housing Finance Agencies, and loans originated through the United States Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Rural Housing Service section 502 Direct Loan Program remain exempt largely because they are not perceived to present the same risk of abusive practices as other mortgage loans."

The Starwood Preferred Guest Credit Card from American Express has been a TPG favorite for a number of years. His most recent valuations peg Starpoints at 2.4 cents apiece (higher than any other loyalty currency out there), which makes sense given the terrific award redemptions and the transferability to the program’s various airline partners. Amex just sweetened the deal by announcing new benefits on both the personal card and the Starwood Preferred Guest Business Credit Card, and in this post I’ll evaluate the updates to help you decide whether these co-branded cards should be added to your travel rewards arsenal. In a nutshell, there are four major improvements coming to the SPG Amex cards starting August 11, 2015: No Foreign Transaction Fees — You can now enjoy international travel without foreign transaction fees from American Express when using the card for purchases abroad. Complimentary, Unlimited Boingo Wi-Fi — You’ll get complimentary, unlimited Wi-Fi access when you enroll in the Boingo American Express Preferred Plan.

Most credit cards will charge a ridiculous 1-3% fee on all purchases processed outside of the US. Note: you don’t even need to leave the country to get hit with these fees – if you ever purchase something and the vendor processes the charge outside of the US, you can expect to get dinged with the nuisance fee.

Probably Not You!Posted by Financial Samurai 33 Comments There once was a time I was rich, but never famous as I traveled internationally four times a year for business. Each destination hosted loads of other folks who wanted to learn about the next money making idea in the global financial markets. With me was an American Express corporate card where I could expense relatively freely to the tune of ~$50,000 a year. The card provided travel insurance, access to airport lounges, concierge services, and more. 50K may sound like a lot, but that’s nothing compared to the hundreds of thousands in expenses I hear from some Black Card spenders!I don’t have as much coming in anymore given I’m just a personal finance blogger, but I do have a lot of freedom. It’s a tradeoff many will take at some point in their lives. Given my desire to simplify things, I’ve only got one personal credit card, which is the Citi Thank You Card. There’s no annual fee and all my spending is concentrated here to maximize my rewards points. Since we live in the land of consumerism where we want things and we want them now, I thought it’d be a good idea to do a post for all you Black Card aspirees out there."

From what I understand an unsecured is always better. Would you agree? A: Well generally I agree with your opinion. With a secured card, you need to put up a security deposit (which will equal your credit line) and as unappealing as that may sound, for some people it makes sense. Let’s do a match-up of secured vs. unsecured credit cards to compare and contrast them…Fees? As you know there are tons of no annual fee unsecured credit cards. However when it comes to secured, almost all of them have fees of some sort. For some it might just be a $20 annual fee but a few unscrupulous banks may charge you an annual fee + application fee + processing fee + customer service fee (crazy, huh?)."

"text": "\"Matthew Frankel ( TMFMath Guy)Jun 10, 2015 at 10:47AMThe American Express Centurion Card -- commonly referred to as the \"\"black card\"\" -- is out of reach for the vast majority of consumers. Fortunately, there are premium cards that are easier to obtain, such as the Visa Black Card and the American Express Platinum card. Let's take a look at what these two cards have to offer, and which one could be the right premium credit card for you. The Visa Black Card: Some good benefits, but at what cost? Issued by Barclays, the Visa Black Card offers rewards and benefits that sound pretty good at first glance. There is currently an introductory offer of 25,000 bonus points after spending $1,500 in the first 90 days of membership, and points can be redeemed for air travel at a two-to-one rate (so 25,000 points can get you $500 worth of airplane tickets). Image Source: Getty Images. The card has a 24-hour concierge service, VIP privileges at more than 3,000 hotels, and access to about 350 airport lounges in 200 cities. Customers also get elite Emerald Club status with National car rentals, and pay a relatively low 14.99% interest rate on purchases. Furthermore, one of the card's most unique benefits is the array of insurance programs it provides."

Normally the first year annual fee is $450 and is not waived, so this can be a huge value. Reports are that the application works regardless of having an account open with Ameriprise, but apply at your own risk. The AMEX Platinum has these benefits: Priority Pass Lounge Access Lounge access to American Airlines, Delta Airlines, and US Airways clubs$200 Airline Fee Credit (or gift card credit) Per Calendar Year ($400 in your first year of cardmembership)$100 Global Entry Credit Concierge Access Automatic Starwood Gold Status (Doesn’t even have to be your account, you can gift to ANYONE)See here for the full rundown of benefits and how to activate them. If you’ve wanted those benefits, but were leery of the $450 fee, this offer may be for you. But you may also want to consider the Mercedes-Benz Platinum Card. The Mercedes-Benz version is open to all and has all the same benefits listed above. But it also comes with 50,000 Membership Rewards after spending $1,000 within three months. The Mercedes-Benz version has a $475 annual fee that is not waived, so choosing it is like “buying” 50k Membership Rewards for $475, a choice I’d make every time.

Today, TPG Senior Points & Miles Correspondent Jason Steele offers his picks for cards that avoid these fees, and offers a rosy outlook for the future of international credit card transactions. Do you despise being charged something for nothing? So do I, which is why I’ve been a passionate opponent of credit cards that charge mindless “foreign transaction fees” since I started writing about the industry years ago. Thankfully, the tide is now turning decisively against these junk fees, according to a new survey by Credit Cards.com showing that major issuers now offer 20 more cards without foreign transaction fees than were available during the last survey in 2012. Today I want to take a brief look at my 10 favorite travel rewards credit cards that have dropped these fees, and then use my crystal ball to predict which products will be the next to follow."

"text": "\"Credit Cards in the Netherlands The use of credit cards in the Netherlands is not as well established as elsewhere with most payments being made by cash, debit cards or via internet banking. The thrifty Dutch have much less of a consumer debt culture than say US, UK or Australia and many shops in Holland still do not accept credit card payments. However, if you are living and working in the Netherlands then it could be useful to get a credit card - especially if you need to travel frequently. A credit card is pretty much essential for international hotel and car rental bookings. In addition, paying for flights and online purchases with a credit card gives you more consumer protection than other payment methods. If you apply for a credit card in the Netherlands, the card issuer will likely run a background credit check on the Bureau Kredietregistratie (BKR) credit register. Dutch credit cards use the chip and pin system for making payments in retail outlets - you have to input a pin number rather than just sign a sales slip. Many cards come with a contactless payment option for transactions under €25. Mastercard and Visa are the most widely accepted credit cards in the Dutch retail space; American Express tends to be accepted only by major retailers who have an international client base. You will not find a wide array of rewards-type credit cards on the Dutch market, except for American Express Flying Blue and Membership Rewards cards."

This includes Amex Platinum card, Premier Rewards Gold card, and many more! In addition, they waive the overlimit fees, late payment fees, returned payment fees, and statement copy request fees. American Express Waives Annual Fees for Active Duty Military Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA) was mainly for alleviating high interest rates on active duty military members with several sections covering taxes, lawsuits, and outstanding debt. Credit card companies are only legally required to keep your interest rate below 6% on any outstanding debt. In addition, American Express will waive all card holder fees for active duty military. AMEX decided to go beyond their legal requirements with waiving the following fees: Annual membership fees Overlimit fees Late Payment fees Returned Payment fees Statement Copy Request fees For those in the military, I would sign up for some Amex cards due to the best travel perks in the industry: How to Get AMEX Military Discount Simply call the number on the back of your card or 1-800-528-4800 and tell them you are on active duty military. Tell them about the benefits in accordance with the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act including no annual fees and more. If the CSR is not familiar with this benefit, ask for the supervisor. They will ask you a few questions and some verifications for the fee waivers."

"text": "\"Matthew Frankel ( TMFMath Guy)Aug 24, 2014 at 1:30PMAmerican Express ( NYSE: AXP) is the undisputed leader at creating exclusive \"\"clubs\"\" of cardholders. However, the exclusivity and cost of these clubs have evolved over the years. Currently, the most exclusive and coveted credit card in the world is the American Express Centurion card, more commonly known simply as the \"\"black card.\"\" While the card does offer some pretty amazing perks, it may not be worth the price of admission. Many of these benefits can be had with another American Express charge card, and for a small fraction of the cost. The black card and how to get one The card is \"\"by invitation only\"\", and to even be considered you'll need to have spent $250,000 on another Amex charge card over the past year. Needless to say, this requires a very high level of income. According to one report, Centurion cardholders had an average annual household income of about $1.3 million and had a net worth of about $16 million. And once you qualify, the card is quite expensive. After paying a $7,500 initiation fee, the card comes with a $2,500 annual fee per card, which is more than five times the cost of any other Amex product."

The main reason: It carries a $450 annual fee that is NOT waived for the first year. So why on Earth would anyone pay $450 to have a credit card? Well, because I think the perks the American Express Platinum comes with are pretty amazing!In this post, we’ll look at all the major details of the card and analyze whether this card is worth it for you.

For an explanation of our Advertising Policy, visit this page. The Centurion Card from Amex is perhaps the most desirable piece of plastic anodized titanium out there, due in no small part to the shroud of secrecy that surrounds it. Unless you’re invited to apply and accepted (more on how that happens later), Amex keeps a tight lid on the numerous benefits and exclusive perks available to cardholders. Luckily, though, thanks to some kind TPG sources who are lucky enough to be part of the Centurion “club” ( including TPG himself — he has the business version ), you can see a comprehensive rundown of the benefits below. And since not everyone can meet the big-spender requirements to score this top-tier card, I’ll highlight other cards that offer some of the same benefits along with better rewards for travel spending. Getting the Card First thing’s first: There are two versions of the Centurion Card — a business one and a personal one. It’s potentially much more feasible to get the card as a business owner, but either way it requires racking up significant charges. There’s no official requirement for Centurion eligibility, but we’re talking big bucks."

"text": "Biography Margaret Thatcher's political career has been one of the most remarkable of modern times. Born in October 1925 at Grantham, a small market town in eastern England, she rose to become the first (and for two decades the only) woman to lead a major Western democracy. She won three successive General Elections and served as British Prime Minister for more than eleven years (1979-90), a record unmatched in the twentieth century. During her term of office she reshaped almost every aspect of British politics, reviving the economy, reforming outdated institutions, and reinvigorating the nation's foreign policy. She challenged and did much to overturn the psychology of decline which had become rooted in Britain since the Second World War, pursuing national recovery with striking energy and determination. In the process, Margaret Thatcher became one of the founders, with Ronald Reagan, of a school of conservative conviction politics, which has had a powerful and enduring impact on politics in Britain and the United States and earned her a higher international profile than any British politician since Winston Churchill. By successfully shifting British economic and foreign policy to the right, her governments helped to encourage wider international trends which broadened and deepened during the 1980s and 1990s, as the end of the Cold War, the spread of democracy, and the growth of free markets strengthened political and economic freedom in every continent. Margaret Thatcher became one of the world's most influential and respected political leaders, as well as one of the most controversial, dynamic, and plain-spoken, a reference point for friends and enemies alike.1925-1947: Grantham & Oxford Margaret Thatcher at a friend's house, summer 1935. Margaret Thatcher's home and early life in Grantham played a large part in forming her political convictions. Her parents, Alfred and Beatrice Roberts, were Methodists."

In the first two sentences on the union bills which have passed the Arizona Senate, the blatantly dishonest report used the identical words “restrict unions.” That should be the first clue that these bills being held hostage by pro-union House Speaker Andy Tobin, are worthy of getting fair treatment. We exposed theleftward bent of the local daily on these issues just last month. Three reasonable reform measures that have cleared the Arizona Senate will likely not see the light of day without vigorous citizen input. Arizona Congressmen — Trent Franks, Paul Gosar, Matt Salmon and David Schweikert — agree, and have sent a letter to Speaker Tobin urging him to allow debate and a vote on these bills. Obviously leadership takes a back seat to union allegiance with Speaker Tobin."

"text": "Estate Planning Estate Planning 101How Much Does Guardianship or Conservatorship Cost? Paying the Expenses of the Ward and Guardian Share Flip Pin Email•••By Julie Garber Updated February 03, 2017Once a person has been determined to be mentally incapacitated and the court establishes a guardianship or conservatorship, various fees and costs will be incurred by the guardian or conservator on behalf of the ward. In fact, guardianship or conservatorship is a costly business. There will be fees and costs incurred even before the guardianship or conservatorship is officially established by the court, as well as ongoing fees and costs after the guardian or conservator is in place. Fees and Costs Before a Guardianship Is Established Various fees and costs will be incurred even before the person is determined to be incapacitated: Court costs for filing the initial petition to determine capacity - These will vary by state and can range anywhere from $100 to over $500. Attorney's fees for filing the petition to determine capacity - In some states, these fees will be fixed by state law while in others attorneys are free to charge their standard hourly rates. Fees for physicians, nurses and/or social workers - The court will appoint various medical professionals and/or social workers to thoroughly examine the ward, and each will charge a fee for his or her services. Attorney’s fees for the alleged incapacitated person's court-appointed attorney - The court will appoint an attorney to represent the best interests of the alleged incapacitated person, and the attorney will need to be paid for his or her services. Costs of notifying family members of the legal proceedings - When a petition to determine capacity is filed, the alleged incapacitated person's closest living relatives will be required to receive a copy of the petition. This can be accomplished by paying a personal process server to hand deliver a copy of the petition to the family member."

These and other health screenings are recommended by the Department of Health's School Health Advisory Committee. STRUCTURE CRITERIA FOR HEALTH SCREENINGSThe School Nurse, in consultation with the school administration, manages the overall planning, organizing, implementing, and evaluating of the screening programs. Parents and guardians of students are informed of the health screening program via the school's annual handbook, the school newsletter, or a special health memorandum. Health education regarding screenings, is provided for the students by the School Nurse or the classroom/ health education teacher. The School Nurse is responsible for instruction and supervision of volunteers or school health aides providing assistance during screenings. * ("

"text": "Risk Management Know OSHA’s Document Creation, Retention Requirements By Mark A. Lies II and Ilana R. Morady Jan 12, 2015LIKE SAVE PRINT EMAILReuse Permissions As most employers are aware, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) inspections typically involve a request for the employer to produce certain documents. In many cases, employers are unsure of what documents the compliance officer is entitled to see and copy. Employers can also be unsure of how long to retain certain documents required under OSHA. Some OSHA regulations require a specific retention period for documents. Other OSHA regulations, however, do not (although it is often advisable to retain certain documents even if retention is not technically required). Categories of Documents The following list sets out the typical OSHA standards and the General Duty Clause that may require an employer to create, retain and produce certain documents during the course of an inspection, if requested by the OSHA compliance officer. Obviously, whether the employer is required to have certain of these programs or others will be dependent upon the nature of the work activities at the site. This list is focused on the standards that are applicable to employers in general industry and not construction, although some general industry standards are substantially similar and also applicable to the construction industry. There are many hazards that are common to each industry but the regulatory obligations frequently differ. For those employers in the construction industries, it will be necessary to reference the existing regulations addressing hazards in that industry when responding to an OSHA document request."

We’ve split up the discussion of each of these important elements, because there is so much to say about each. This article focuses on related services._______________________IDEA’s exact words Related services, in brief Beginning with evaluation Determining what related services a student needs Related services personnel on the IEP team Do parents have to pay for related services? Related services, in detail What’s excluded Individual services, defined_______________________IDEA’s Exact Words Let’s start with IDEA’s full requirement for specifying a child’s related services in his or her IEP. This appears at §300.320 (a) (4) and stipulates that each child’s IEP must contain: (4) A statement of the special education and related services and supplementary aids and services, based on peer-reviewed research to the extent practicable, to be provided to the child, or on behalf of the child, and a statement of the program modifications or supports for school personnel that will be provided to enable the child— (i) To advance appropriately toward attaining the annual goals; (ii) To be involved in and make progress in the general education curriculum in accordance with paragraph (a) (1) of this section, and to participate in extracurricular and other nonacademic activities; and (iii) To be educated and participate with other children with disabilities and nondisabled children in the activities described in this section… [§300.320 (a) (4)]We’ve bolded the part of IDEA’s regulation that specifically mentions related services, because it’s important to see the context in which this term is used. It is that context, and IDEA’s own definition of related services, that will guide how a child’s IEP team considers what related services the child needs and the detail with which the team specifies them in the IEP. Back to top Related Services, in Brief Related services help children with disabilities benefit from their special education by providing extra help and support in needed areas, such as speaking or moving. Related services can include, but are not limited to, any of the following:speech-language pathology and audiology servicesinterpreting servicespsychological servicesphysical and occupational therapyrecreation, including therapeutic recreationearly identification and assessment of disabilities in childrencounseling services, including rehabilitation counselingorientation and mobility servicesmedical services for diagnostic or evaluation purposesschool health services and school nurse servicessocial work services in schoolsparent counseling and training Back to top Beginning with Evaluation IDEA requires that a child be assessed in all areas related to his or her suspected disability. This evaluation must be sufficiently comprehensive so as to identify all of the child’s special education and related services needs, whether or not those needs are commonly linked to the disability category in which he or she has been classified. Back to top Determining What Related Services a Student Needs It is the IEP team’s responsibility to review all of the evaluation information, to identify any related services the child needs, and to include them in the IEP."

It gives a procurement plan aimed to provide productions with necessary resources. When lead-times are too long and materials are too difficult to deliver, the analysis process (also known as the purchasing process) will play a pivotal role. The company management will ensure that the company buys appropriate products at the right price from the right suppliers. The process becomes more significant if the company is aspired to produce goods or services while the production is depended on external suppliers and resources.

High value or complex procurement planning This category assumes that from a variety of goods/services there must be a group of goods/services that is defined as a strategic (priority) purchases or has the highest values. High value or complex procurement planning should be accomplished according to the following steps: Analysis the needs and requirements Considering options Specifying company's strategy Managing contacts and evaluating outcomes Annual procurement planning The goal of annual analysis is to encourage the company management to check current situation with available resources and deliveries, and to adjust it with plan. This requires coordination of business strategies and plans. Careful procurement management lets the company optimize costs and increase production."

"text": "\"Advisory Committee on Organ Transplantation U. S. Department of Health and Human Services Recommendations 29-35The Committee (ACOT) met on November 6-7, 2003, in Washington, DC, and unanimously agreed on the following seven recommendations: Recommendation 29: HHS should fund necessary research initiatives, and convene a national consensus conference, updating the criteria involved in end of life issues related to the determination of death in the context of organ donation and transplantation. The three specific areas for review would be brain death, cardiac death, and imminent death. Brain death and cardiac death involve two different but equally appropriate definitions of death, yet there is widespread confusion and uncertainty regarding their application, and some inconsistency in protocols employed in the determination of death. ( Interestingly, while the public appears to have a clearer understanding of the concept of brain death, only about 1% of deaths declared are by brain death criteria.) The questions raised here are not unique to the issues of organ donation and transplantation, but have been highlighted by the advances in those fields, and the concomitant necessity to more clearly define the related concept of imminent death. Brain Death: ACOT recommends that a Uniform Declaration of Death Protocol should be established and research initiatives essential to accomplishing this goal should be funded. The Department of Health and Human Services should encourage the American Academy of Neurology and other interested medical specialty organizations (e.g., American Academy of Pediatrics, Society for Critical Care Medicine [SCCM], Child Neurology Society, American Association of Neurological Surgeons, Congress of Neurological Surgeons, American Neurological Association, and so forth) to participate in the consensus conference and to assist in updating the practice guideline for brain death determination. Both the American Academy of Neurology’s Practice Parameter for Brain Death Determination and the American College of Critical Care Medicine’s Intensive Care Guidelines and Consensus could serve as a basis for preliminary discussion. HHS and other participating associations should work together with hospitals, organ procurement organizations, the American Hospital Association, and other interested groups to develop tools for the documentation of brain death determination and to promote consistent practices among hospitals. Cardiac Death: ACOT recommends that a Uniform Declaration of Death Protocol should be established and research initiatives essential to accomplishing this goal should be funded."

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

"text": "\"April 30, 2012The 2012–13 Budget: Evaluating FI$Cal Executive Summary For the past several years, the administration has been engaged in the planning efforts of the Financial Information System for California (FI$Cal) project that would replace the state's aging and decentralized information technology financial systems. This report: (1) provides an extensive background on the project from its early inception as a replacement system for the Department of Finance to its expansion in scope to become a fully integrated financial management system for the state; (2) describes the innovative procurement process that state staff conducted to secure vendor services to build the FI$Cal system, including information on the procurement results; and (3) reviews the FI$Cal project plans as explained in recently submitted documents. These plans include a special project report updating the status of the project, a statutorily required report to the Legislature, and the Governor's 2012–13 budget requests proposing $89 million ($54 General Fund) to begin developing the FI$Cal system. Based upon our analysis of the proposed plans and review of project status, we believe that the benefits of proceeding with FI$Cal development at this time outweigh the costs of the project. In addition to the inherent benefits derived from having an updated, fully integrated financial management system for the state, proceeding with FI$Cal would also avoid substantial costs associated with replacing various individual financial management systems over the next several years. FI$Cal would also result in other savings to the state, such as by streamlining business practices allowing for more strategic procurement that potentially results in higher volume discounts for the state. We therefore recommend the Legislature approve the continuation of the project. However, we recognize that given the state's budget situation, the Legislature has to make difficult decisions regarding programmatic reductions and set priorities among the competing demands for limited General Fund monies. Should the Legislature wish to proceed with the project, we offer alternative funding options that reduce the state's reliance on General Fund monies to pay for the project in the short term. Additionally, we point out ways the project's change management and staffing plans to implement FI$Cal statewide could be improved to reduce risk and maximize project benefits."

The final rule: Limits the amount of documentation for annual submission to 1-2 pages if the State system is in operational status with no development. Eliminates the prior approval submission requirements for operational procurements, regardless of the size of the contract. Increases the dollar threshold from $5 million to $20 million for submitting hardware and commercial off-the-shelf software acquisitions for prior approval. Increases the dollar threshold from $5 million to $6 million for submitting software application acquisitions for prior approval, but also permits contract amendments to be exempted from prior Federal approval until their cumulative cost exceeds 20% of the base contract. Effectively permits States to follow their own procurement rules in areas such as sole source justification and conflict of interest as long as the same rules are followed for procurements not matched with Federal Financial Participation funding. Expands the authority for States to seek an exemption from Federal prior approval of acquisitions over the submission threshold as long as the acquisition summary meets the criteria specified in the Annual Advance Planning Document and it is not the initial acquisition for a high risk activity. Eliminates the need for annual cost benefit analysis updates. Requires Independent Verification and Validation of high risk projects and establishes in regulation the high risk activities that trigger an IV&V assessment review by Federal staff. Two additional IV&V triggers are added to the triggers already in the child support regulations."

"text": "\"Allowable Cost Policy Manual Resources Audit - Home Financial Management Manual Policy for Federal Awards 2 CFR Part 200This document was issued in February, 1995 as Chapter B3 of the Financial Management Manual for Counties, Tribes and 51 Boards. It is also designed to be \"\"liftable\"\" to serve as a stand-alone Allowable Cost Policy Manual for provider agencies and other users. Since the 1996 reorganization of State agencies, the Allowable Cost Policy Manual, originally developed in the old Department of Health and Social Services, is now being used by the Department of Health Services, and by those parts of the Departments of Workforce Development and Corrections that were formerly a part of Health and Social Services. The online version of the Allowable Cost Policy Manual differs from the printed version in the following ways: Changed references to the \"\"Department of Health and Social Services\"\" to \"\"Department. \"\" Reorganized the Table of Contents to include direct references to the federal cost principles, to ease linking to these documents. Added internal bookmarks for navigation within the document and external links to on-line resources such as the federal cost principles. Effective dates of revisions to the Allowable Cost Policy Manual are shown in red text. All revisions are summarized at the end of the Manual. On December 26, 2013, the Office of Management and Budget released \"\" Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards \"\", which supersedes and streamlines OMB Circulars A-21, A-87, A-102, A-110, A-122, and A-133.

"text": "Subpart 17.5—Interagency Acquisitions17.500 Scope of subpart. ( a) This subpart prescribes policies and procedures applicable to all interagency acquisitions under any authority, except as provided for in paragraph (c) of this section. In addition to complying with the interagency acquisition policy and procedures in this subpart, nondefense agencies acquiring supplies and services on behalf of the Department of Defense shall also comply with the policy and procedures at subpart 17.7. ( b) This subpart applies to interagency acquisitions, see 2.101 for definition, when— (1) An agency needing supplies or services obtains them using another agency’s contract; or (2) An agency uses another agency to provide acquisition assistance, such as awarding and administering a contract, a task order, or delivery order. ( c) This subpart does not apply to— (1) Interagency reimbursable work performed by Federal employees (other than acquisition assistance), or interagency activities where contracting is incidental to the purpose of the transaction; or (2) Orders of $550,000 or less issued against Federal Supply Schedules.17.501 General. ( a) Interagency acquisitions are commonly conducted through indefinite-delivery contracts, such as task- and delivery-order contracts. The indefinite-delivery contracts used most frequently to support interagency acquisitions are Federal Supply Schedules (FSS), Governmentwide acquisition contracts (GWACs), and multi-agency contracts (MACs). ( b) An agency shall not use an interagency acquisition to circumvent conditions and limitations imposed on the use of funds. ( c) An interagency acquisition is not exempt from the requirements of subpart 7.3, Contractor Versus Government Performance. ( d) An agency shall not use an interagency acquisition to make acquisitions conflicting with any other agency’s authority or responsibility (for example, that of the Administrator of General Services under title 40, United States Code, “Public Buildings, Property and Works” and 41 U. S. C. division C of subtitle I, Procurement. )"

"text": "Start Printed Page 54407AGENCY: Executive Office of the President, Office of Management and Budget. ACTION: Correcting amendments. SUMMARY: The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) is correcting the final guidance that appeared in the Federal Register on September 14, 2010 ( 75 FR 55673) and December 26, 2013 ( 78 FR 78589 ). OMB is amending the guidance to make technical corrections where needed. The final guidance is revised to remove references to the “System of Award Management” and replace them with the correct term “System for Award Management”. With respect to the technical corrections to the final guidance, these corrections are included only where it has come to the attention of the Council on Financial Assistance Reform (COFAR) that particular language in the final guidance did not match with the COFAR's intent and would result in an erroneous implementation of the guidance. These technical corrections will go into effect at the time of issuance. Guidance on effective/applicability date is revised to allow a grace period of two fiscal years for non-Federal entities to implement changes to their procurement policies and procedures in accordance with guidance on procurement standards. Other requirements in the section remain as originally published. Technical corrections are made to eliminate conflicting or unclear language and grammatical inconsistencies or citation errors throughout."

"text": "U. S. Navy Share on Facebook 0 Share on Twitter 0 Download Chapter PDFThe Navy’s mandate is “to be where it matters, when it matters.” 1 As the primary maritime arm of the military, the Navy enables the United States to project military power in the maritime and air domains, a critical capability in war, crisis response, and peacetime engagement missions. Unlike land forces (or even, to a large extent, air forces), which are tethered to a set of fixed, larger-scale support bases, the Navy is able to shift its presence wherever needed so long as the world’s oceans and seas permit. In addition to the ability to mass military power rapidly for combat anywhere in the world, the Navy’s peacetime forward presence supports missions that include securing sea lanes for the free flow of goods and services, assuring U. S. allies and friends, deterring adversaries, and providing a timely response to crises short of war. Two key documents tell the Navy what it must be able to do on a day-to-day basis: The 2012 Defense Strategic Guidance 2 and The FY 2014 Global Force Management Allocation Plan (GFMAP). 3The 2012 Defense Strategic Guidance issued by the Secretary of Defense describes the 10 primary missions for all branches of the U. S. military. In addition, the U. S. Navy must meet forward presence requirements laid out in the FY 2014 GFMAP, which states the force presence needed around the world as determined by the combatant commanders and the Secretary of Defense. 4Capacity For the Navy, capacity is measured by the number of ships rather than the number of sailors. Furthermore, not all ships are counted equally. The Navy focuses mainly on the size of its “Battle Force,” which is composed of ships considered to be directly related to its combat mission."

Earlier this week, I met Christian for a quick coffee in San Francisco to hear his perspective on the latest happenings in the US supplier network and e-invoicing market. About halfway through the conversation, he sprung the one-liner on me: \"\" Ariba doesn't have customers, it has prisoners. \"\" As someone who knows Ariba – products, customers, partners and a number of employees – at least somewhat well, I could have easily dismissed this statement based on the fact that procurement and AP organizations use Ariba's tools willingly. After all, they've paid for these procurement and accounts payable tools. Yet Christian has a point. And it's one that anyone who is in the market for (or currently using) Ariba Saa S technology should keep in mind. Those in the market for purchasing and invoicing technology who have seen what Ariba offers are aware that it's rare that a best of breed provider can price aggressively, at what appears to be the bottom of the market. One of the knocks on Salesforce, for example, relative to other CRM tools and platforms, is that once you start adding users, capabilities and modules, the price increases dramatically. Yet Ariba can be inexpensive – at least based on volume, users, etc. –"

"text": "Despite a strong El Niño season, many areas in the U. S. are experiencing a major drought — you’ve probably heard about California’s water shortage. With April showers around the corner, Weather DB crunched the numbers to find out which 30 cities in the U. S. receive the most precipitation annually. The team at Weather DB analyzed data from NOAA ‘s 1981-2010 U. S. Climate Normals for precipitation. They compared the average annual precipitation across cities with a population of at least 20,000 people, according to the 2010 census. For each city, annual precipitation in inches, as well as record precipitation facts, rainiest month and average temperature were included. From Florida to Washington, the wettest cities are spread widely throughout the country. These 30 cities have diverse rainiest months, ranging from May to February. However, April is not the rainiest month for any of these soggy cities. The wettest city once received nearly 20 inches of precipitation in a single day, and each of these cities gets at least 59 inches of precipitation annually.#30.

"text": "\"Oregon District Active Projects Estimating Maximum Water Temperature in Small Streams in Western Oregon Using Neural Network Models Project Chief: John C. Risley Project Location: Western Oregon Cooperators: Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board and Oregon Departement of Environmental Quality BACKGROUNDElevated water temperature is the single most common water-quality violation for streams in Oregon. Hundreds of stream reaches exceed the State standard, which is 64-degrees Fahrenheit (17.8-degrees Celsius) based on a 7-day moving average maximum daily temperature for most streams with cold-water fisheries. In light of the growing list of threatened and endangered salmon, steelhead, and other species under the Endangered Species Act, the need to address these violations has become critical in the State of Oregon. Because each of these temperature violations must be addressed under the Total Maximum Daily Load provision of the Clean Water Act, and because of the large number of violations, the task is daunting. If agencies rely on individual data-collection and modeling studies of each reach or subbasin to determine the need and degree of remediation, the process will be slow and expensive. Consequently, a different, more regionalized method is needed for evaluating whether water temperatures are significantly elevated in a stream reach and whether remediation efforts are warranted. The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (ODEQ), as well as other State and Federal agencies (including EPA, NMFS, USFWS, and USGS), are evaluating a new method to assess whether a stream is considered \"\"healthy.\"\" This method compares the biological assemblage in a stream to similar reference sites that are minimally affected by human activities. The concept is called the \"\"Healthy Stream Standard.\"\" It is more of a site-specific evaluation of a stream that relies less on universally applied chemical and physical standards for water quality (such as dissolved oxygen, dissolved solids, and toxins) and more on letting the stream biology tell the story."

It rained an average of 460 inches (11,684 millimetres) a year from 1931 to 1960 on the tropical island mountain. That's over 38 feet (11 metres) of rain. Several other spots on the Hawaiian Islands top 200 inches (5,080 mm) of rain a year on average, much more than places in any other state besides Alaska. Mountain View on the east side of Hawaii's Big Island is the rainiest with 240 inches or 20 feet (6.1 metres) annually. At the community on the slope above Hilo it rains 296 days a year – which works out to getting rain on four out of five days. Highest Total Precipitation The most rain and snow measured in Alaska is at Little Port Walter on Baranof Island in southeast Alaska. Average precipitation at the inlet amounts to 237 inches a year (6,009 mm), which falls on 233 days annually. In the lower 48 states, western Washington and the north coast of Oregon are the wettest areas. That's the only area outside of Alaska and Hawaii where yearly precipitation totals over 100 inches (2,540 mm)."

This winter, when COASST’s first Horned Puffins washed ashore along the coast of Oregon and Washington, Bert and Mike weren’t the only ones surprised.

The Second Summer and its all its warmer weather is just the beginning. There are events, weather surprises, storms and other aspects of the towns and nature that are simply riveting. Here are 20 reasons to keep coming out here. Second Summer means a lot of cool things on the coast (pictured here: a hidden spot near Pacific City)#1: Second Summer Fall is the warmest time of the year on the coast, thanks to an interaction between warmer waters, cooler temperatures inland and air flows from the east."

S. state of Oregon. It lies at the mouth of the Siuslaw River on the Pacific Ocean and about midway between Newport and Coos Bay along U. S. Route 101. As of the 2010 census, the city had a total population of 8,466.

Some claim that the city was named after state senator A. B. Florence, who represented Lane County from 1858 to 1860; another claim is that Florence was named after a French vessel that was wrecked at the mouth of the Siuslaw River on February 17, 1875. [ 7]Geography [ edit]Florence is located on the Oregon Coast at the mouth of the Siuslaw River immediately north of Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area, at about the same latitude as Eugene, Oregon. It is approximately midway between the other major central Oregon coastal cities of Newport and Coos Bay. Florence annexed Driftwood Shores hotel and conference center north of town in Heceta Beach in 2008. [ 8]The unincorporated community of Glenada lies just across the Siuslaw on U. S. Route 101 to the south of Florence, and the city of Yachats is 26 miles (42 km) to the north. According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 5.87 square miles (15.20 km 2 ), of which 5.30 square miles (13.73 km 2) is land and 0.57 square miles (1.48 km 2) is water.

Currently I was thinking 3 nights in Portland with day trips to Mt St Helens and the Dalles. The rest of the week over to the coast traveling south into CA. Some questions...which beach towns are best, will we need a reservation for lodging or can we just kind of wing it and stay as the feeling hits us, weather... I have looked at weather web sites that show average Aug temps on the coast around 70. Do you folks wear shorts out there in the summer, or would you recommend long pants. I would like any input you may have, as this is our first trip to the west coast. We enjoy easy to moderate hiking, beautiful scenery, geology, natural history, good food, and libations.

It was Hamer’s last bridge and is one of the shortest in Oregon, measuring 42 feet in length.

Of course, there are sales and there are sales, so it's still wise to know the comparative costs of things you might be buying. Generally, our family members from California love to shop at the stores here."

"text": "Originally Answered: What is economic recession? Simply, an economic recession is the decline in growth of country’s GDP for two consecutive quarters. For example let’s assume: In Q1 2016, economy growth was 3.5%, in Q2 2016, growth was 3.2%, Q3 2016, growth is 3.1 %, that suggest that economy is going into recession. But the problem with this theory definition is GDP numbers are realized annually, so to measure and predict recession on basis on quarters, central banks use four factors inter alia: Income data Manufacturing data (IIP index, which is based on quantity of production)Unemployment data Retail Sales data There data are realized every month, and accordingly central banks predict heading of economy in general. For example, if unemployment rate is increasing, that means people will default on loans, consumer spending would go down, tax collection would decrease, business spending would go down, if businesses are not expanding, more layoffs would take place exacerbating the situation. Even if this process last for 9 months, it can have long lasting effect on the economy. How can government intervene to help reduce recession? First and foremost thing, recession is not, as perceived, bad for the country. Take it as a correction which eventually get things to level where they actually belong. By the way, recession helps in reducing inflation."

"text": "\"Introduction The physical surface of the landscape is undergoing transformation either naturally or due to human interference. While humans are causing most of these transformations, others are the result of changing seasons giving rise to land cover (LC) changes. LC change refers to human modification of the Earth's terrestrial surface for food and other essentials. Terrestrial ecosystems are permanently changing at a variety of spatial and temporal scales due to natural and/or anthropogenic causes. Changes in LC induced by any of these agents (either human and/or natural processes) play a major role in global as well as regional scale patterns, which in turn influence weather and climate. The key links between LC with weather and climate include the exchange of greenhouse gases (water vapour, carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide) and sensible heat between the land surface and the atmosphere, the radiation (both solar and long wave) balance of the land surface, and the roughness of the land surface and its uptake of momentum from the atmosphere (Loveland et al., 2003). The current rate of LC change has increased drastically with wider extent and intensity, driving unprecedented changes in ecosystems and environmental processes at regional and global scales. Extensive clearing of forests for unplanned developmental activities and management practices have encouraged the concentration of human populations within urban areas and the depopulation of rural areas, accompanied by the intensification of agriculture in the most productive lands and the abandonment of unproductive lands, presenting a big question mark on sustainability of land resources. Management of land to procure these resources is linked with potentially negative consequences."

There are approximately 23,861 ophthalmologists in the United States, according to the American Medical Association.2. The median salary for ophthalmologists is $325,384, and the average starting salary for ophthalmologists is $215,000, according to the American Medical Group Association's 2009 AMGA Medical Group Compensation and Financial Survey. Here are the average salaries of ophthalmologists by region: East — $285,866West — $321,726South — $310,368North — $354,5003. Ophthalmologists can perform nearly 100 percent of their procedures in the ASC setting, according to Satish Modi, MD, an ophthalmologist and founding owner of Dutchess Ambulatory Surgery Center in Poughkeepsie, N. Y. Some of the more profitable ophthalmic procedures performed in the ASC setting include phacoemulsification, or cataract removal, phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation and certain glaucoma and retina treatments, according to Dr. Modi. 4. Ophthalmology represents 18 percent of the average case volume in surgery centers, second behind GI/endoscopy (25 percent). The average surgery center performs 4,869 cases annually, which would average to around 876 ophthalmology cases annually, according to VMG Health's 2009 Intellimarker. 5. Cataract surgery is one of the most common procedures in the United States, with more than 22 million Americans age 40 and older affected by cataracts."

[ 1] [2] It is one of two main subgenres of Indian classical music that evolved from ancient Hindu traditions, the other subgenre being Hindustani music, which emerged as a distinct form because of Persian or Islamic influences from Northern India. The main emphasis in Carnatic music is on vocal music; most compositions are written to be sung, and even when played on instruments, they are meant to be performed in gāyaki (singing) style. Although there are stylistic differences, the basic elements of śruti (the relative musical pitch), swara (the musical sound of a single note), rāga (the mode or melodic formulæ), and tala (the rhythmic cycles) form the foundation of improvisation and composition in both Carnatic and Hindustani music. Although improvisation plays an important role, Carnatic music is mainly sung through compositions, especially the kriti (or kirtanam) – a form developed between the 14th and 20th centuries by composers such as Purandara Dasa and the Trinity of Carnatic music. Carnatic music is also usually taught and learned through compositions. Carnatic music is usually performed by a small ensemble of musicians, consisting of a principal performer (usually a vocalist), a melodic accompaniment (usually a violin ), a rhythm accompaniment (usually a mridangam ), and a tambura, which acts as a drone throughout the performance. Other typical instruments used in performances may include the ghatam, kanjira, morsing, venu flute, veena, and chitraveena. The greatest concentration of Carnatic musicians is to be found in the city of Chennai. [ 3] Various Carnatic music festivals are held throughout India and abroad, including the Madras Music Season, which has been considered to be one of the world's largest cultural events. ["

The northeast monsoon is the result of the annual gradual retreat of monsoonal rains from northeastern India. Unlike during the regular monsoon, rainfall during the northeast monsoon is sporadic, but typically far exceeds the amount produced by the regular monsoon by up to 90 percent. This excessive rainfall can be exacerbated by an El Nino year, which 2015 was. [ 19]The coastal districts of Andhra Pradesh usually bear the brunt of heavy rains that occur during the northeast monsoon; with numerous river systems and wetlands, Puducherry and eastern Tamil Nadu are prone to flooding.

But the Mumbai jewellery designer decided to take it several notches higher, so much so that his recent creation is likely to fetch Rs 50 crore at Sotheby's auction.brunch Updated: Feb 08, 2014 18:51 ISTAasheesh Sharma Hindustan Times He is in the league of extraordinary jewel chiefs. Mumbai-based Nirav Modi is the first Indian jewellery designer to feature on the cover of a Christie’s catalogue, a distinction the auction house had hitherto reserved for internationally renowned brands such as Cartier, Van Cleef and Harry Winston. Apart from being a celebrated jewellery designer, Modi, 43, is an art aficionado too. \"\" I’ve grown up admiring the Indian masters, artists such as Francis Newton Souza, Sayed Haider Raza and of course, Husain saheb,\"\" he says. An entire wall at Modi’s Lower Parel, Mumbai, office is dedicated to Souza’s impasto works done in the 1970s. So, when India Art Fair director Neha Kirpal approached him to showcase his creations at this year’s show, he didn’t think twice. \"\" Over the last six years, it has emerged as the most important art fair in the country.\"\" Modi ’s reputation for creating jewellery with detailed craftsmanship, using the shiniest and sparkliest diamonds with minimal use of metal precedes him. But what has the art world abuzz is his penchant for peddling his creations at global auctions at jaw-dropping prices."

He was the Chief Minister of Gujarat from 2001 to 2014, and is the Member of Parliament for Varanasi. Modi, a member of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), is a Hindu nationalist and member of the right-wing Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS). Born to a Gujarati family in Vadnagar, Modi helped his father sell tea as a child, and later ran his own stall. He was introduced to the RSS at the age of eight, beginning a long association with the organisation. He left home after graduating from school, partly because of an arranged marriage which he rejected. Modi travelled around India for two years, and visited a number of religious centres. He returned to Gujarat and moved to Ahmedabad in 1969 or 1970. In 1971 he became a full-time worker for the RSS. During the state of emergency imposed across the country in 1975, Modi was forced to go into hiding."

This report is available in PDF format here and a general treinnial valuation overview containing a summary of the key points can be found here. Executive summary On 31 March 2017, 91 Funds from England & Wales participating in the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) submitted the results of the 2016 actuarial valuation with the purpose of setting employer contribution rates in each Fund for the period from 1 April 2017 to 31 March 2020. This report outlines some of the headline results as well as some of the issues surrounding the 2016 valuation understood to have been faced by all the actuarial firms. Headline results Total reported assets of £216,600m and liabilities on local funding assumptions of £254,300m revealed a deficit of £37,700m and a funding level of 85%. This is an overall improvement compared to the position in 2013 which showed a funding level of 79% and a total deficit of £47,500m. Of the 91 Funds, 79 saw an improvement in their funding level and 12 saw no improvement or a deterioration.

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

On average, British undergraduates paid just under £6,000 in annual tuition fees in the 2013-14. Photograph: Colin Mc Pherson/Corbis England has the highest average undergraduate tuition fees in the industrialised world, although this investment tends to be repaid many times in higher graduate wages, according to an annual survey of education across more than 30 countries. On average, English undergraduates paid just under £6,000 in annual tuition fees in the 2013-14 year, after the government’s decision to triple maximum fees, according to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). The next highest was the US, with fees of about £5,300, followed by Japan on about £3,300, said the Paris-based organisation, which comprises 34 mainly prosperous countries. The comparison applies for public universities only, which skews the figures for the US, where many leading universities are private. Tuition fees are a consumerist fallacy. Our students deserve better Stefan Collini Read more Other findings within the 2015 edition of the OECD’s annual Education at a Glance report include that teachers’ starting salaries in England and Scotland are below the average for the bloc and among the lowest in Europe. Much of this is offset, however, by bonuses and allowances, which tend to boost salaries above the OECD average. Throughout the profession, however, teaching salaries in England and Scotland are reversing in real terms, according to Andreas Schleicher, the OECD’s director of education and skills. “"

Their email addresses are [email protected] and [email protected] Data on self-employment are obtained from the Current Population Survey (CPS), the official source of employment and unemployment data in the United States. In addition to classifying employment by occupation and industry, the CPS subdivides the employed by “class of worker”—that is, wage and salary employees, the self-employed, and unpaid family workers. In 1967, it became possible to identify another group of self-employed workers: those who had reported themselves in the CPS as self-employed and had incorporated their businesses. People choose to incorporate their businesses for a number of reasons, including legal and tax considerations. Since 1989, unpublished tabulations of the incorporated self-employed have been produced by BLS on a regular basis. In the monthly CPS, employed respondents are asked the question “Last week, were you employed by government, by a private company, a nonprofit organization, or were you self-employed?” Respondents who say they were employed by government, a private company, or a nonprofit organization are classified as wage and salary workers. Individuals who say that they are self-employed are asked, “Is this business incorporated?” Respondents who say yes are the incorporated self-employed and are classified as wage and salary workers; respondents who say no are classified as unincorporated self-employed."

"text": "In the state of Delaware, three things determine the salary increases for the Delaware certified teacher that were agreed upon by the Department of Education and the representatives for the teachers. There is an approved list of education classes teachers can take with the promise that they will be given professional growth salary increments. There are also in-demand subjects with a more pressing need for teachers, such as math or science, and the process of selection for becoming a teacher in Delaware in one of those at-need classes. Sometimes teachers with previous experience are asked to fill these positions, and they must take minimal preparation classes, in order to have instructional proficiency in the subject. That process, too, warrants higher pay.

Today, according to UN calculations there are over 7 billion of us. 1 Recent estimates suggest that today's population size is roughly equivalent to 6.5% of the total number of people ever born. 2 This is the most conspicuous fact about world population growth: for thousands of years, the population grew only slowly but in recent centuries, it has jumped dramatically. Between 1900 and 2000, the increase in world population was three times greater than during the entire previous history of humanity—an increase from 1.5 to 6.1 billion in just 100 years. How the world population is changing is of great importance for humanity’s impact on the Earth’s natural environment, but it also gives reasons to hope for a good future. This is because we have a bigger team of better educated people who can contribute to the solutions that improve global well-being. A picture of the world population in the very long-run shows extremely rapid growth. Indeed, for a long time the world population grew at an increasing rate. However, if we focus on the last couple of decades, we see that this pattern no longer holds, as the annual rate of population growth has been recently going down."

Local anchor salary levels depend on the size of the metropolitan area, or \"\"market,\"\" and the experience level of the anchor. Anchor Role Explained Anchoring television news is serious business. Generally, it requires at least a bachelor's degree in TV broadcasting or journalism. Anchors must own a degree of authority and credibility. For example, a person with a comical demeanor will not be believable as a news anchor, though he might do well as a weather person or sports reporter. In addition, the glamorous aspect of the position may be overshadowed by the odd, unpredictable or long hours. Morning news show anchors may rise as early as 3 or 4 a.m., altering their body clocks and perhaps restricting precious time for family life."

"text": "Hearing Aid Specialist Salaryby Tanja Z | 0 comments What is a Hearing Aid Specialist Hearing aid specialists (also known as Hearing Instrument Specialists or Hearing Aid Practitioners) administer and interpret hearing tests on patients, as well as select and fit hearing aids for customers. They help to assess the functioning of the hearing instrument, as well as taking impressions of the ear to prepare or modify ear molds. They are separate from, though often work with, audiologists. For information on how to become a hearing aid specialist, please visit our hearing aid specialist job description page. Work Environment Hearing aid specialists tend to work in a retail setting. While this can be tedious for some, the work is specialized enough that many of the difficulties and frustrations of typical retail work do not present themselves, while the pleasures of offering helpful, and in some cases life-altering, services are highly rewarding. Work Schedule The work schedule of a hearing aid specialist is typically 40 hours per week, often during standard business hours (ie 9-5, though this can vary slightly). There is little variability in this work schedule, as their services are not often in demand on an emergency basis. However, as with any position, occasional overtime can occur, and the standard business hours are dependent on the employer. Mean Annual Hearing Aid Specialist Salary The average annual hearing aid specialist salary is $46,780."

"text": "\"Salary and Benefits for an Electrical Engineerby Kara Page; Updated September 26, 2017Much of our modern industry and production is reliant on electrical equipment, such as electric motors, lighting, wiring, navigation tools, communications systems and power generators. Electrical engineers work hard to design, test and repair these electrical devices and systems. Some may focus on the electrical technology in transportation while others work exclusively in radar communication. With such a wide range of career options and working conditions, the salary and benefits for electrical engineers can vary. Nationwide Figures In May of 2010, the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics completed a survey and determined that electrical engineers made an average of $87,770 a year. The report is based on an estimated 148,770 electrical engineers working around the country, most of whom fell into the middle 50 percent and earned between $66,880 and $105,860 a year. The lowest paid engineers, those in the bottom 10th percentile, reported annual salaries of less than $54,030. However, electrical engineers with experience and the right credentials had the chance to climb into the top 10th percentile and earn over $128,610 annually. Job Location Electrical engineers working in New York or Idaho in 2010 reported salaries similar to the national figure, averaging $87,220 and $87,850 a year respectively.

That’s typically true of graduate physicians once they begin to practice, and even more so after they gain experience. Orthopedic surgeons, for example, earned an average of $405,000 annually in 2013, according to the Medscape “Physician Compensation Report.” Residency, however, is a different matter. Training Takes Time Orthopedics is a very competitive field, according to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons. Like all physicians, an orthopedic surgeon spends eight years in college and medical school. Unlike many other doctors, however, orthopedic surgeons have a five-year residency in which they learn the necessary skills to perform surgeries such as joint replacements, tendon transfers or fracture repairs. Residency programs could include two years of general surgery plus three of orthopedic surgery, but most offer four years in orthopedic training and one year in a broad-based program such as general surgery, internal medicine or pediatrics. Orthopedic surgeons are paid for each year of residency.

Cranial osteopathy (also called cranial therapy or craniosacral therapy) is one variety of osteopathic manipulative therapies. It stimulates healing by using gentle hand pressure to manipulate the skeleton and connective tissues, especially the skull and sacrum (the large, triangular bone at the base of the spinal column). Cranial osteopathy is based on the controversial theory that the central nervous system, including the brain and spinal cord, has subtle, rhythmic pulsations that are vital to health and can be detected and modified by a skilled practitioner. About five percent of physicians in the United States are doctors of osteopathy (DOs), and fewer than 10 percent of them rely on manipulation as a main method of treatment. However, some medical doctors and dentists have had training in cranial osteopathy. What conditions is cranial osteopathy used for? Cranial osteopathy is used for a wide range of problems in both children and adults including constipation, irritable bowel syndrome, seizures, scoliosis, migraine headaches, disturbed sleep cycles, asthma, neck pain, sinus infections, TMJ syndrome, Ménière’s disease and ear problems, and for children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) who have experienced birth trauma or head trauma. The American Cancer Society notes that while cranial osteopathy therapy has not been shown scientifically to be a treatment for cancer, it can help patients feel more relaxed by helping to relieve stress and tension.

General internists often serve as primary-care doctors, but unlike family practitioners, they don't do surgery or practice pediatrics or obstetrics. After the internal medicine residency, many internists take fellowship training to qualify for a sub-specialty, such as oncology. Residency and Fellowships A general internist residency is broad-based, including rotations such as general medicine, ambulatory care, cardiology, emergency medicine, neurology, infectious diseases and geriatrics. Residents typically can choose among additional optional rotations such as endocrinology and radiology. After residency, internists who wish to qualify as sub-specialists must complete an additional one to three years of fellowship. The number of sub-specialties depends on the hospital, but the American College of Physicians lists 13 areas, including adolescent medicine, geriatrics, infectious disease and sports medicine. Additional sub-specialties focus on a particular organ, such as cardiology (heart), nephrology (kidneys) or pulmonology (lungs).

Radiology falls under the career cluster of medical specialties, and radiologists are specialty physicians. Although they're often assisted by other professionals, such as radiologic technologists, a radiologist has the same training and licensing requirements as other physicians plus additional training in radiology. Earning Your Degrees Physicians must complete undergraduate prerequisites before beginning medical school, including classes in chemistry, math, biology and English. You can choose any major, but most students finish a bachelor's degree before beginning medical training. Professional school lasts an additional four years and grants a Doctor of Medicine or a Doctor of Osteopathy degree, depending on your choice of program. The training is largely parallel in either case, including two years of class and lab work followed by two years of supervised practice in hospitals and clinics. Learning the Specialty Nearly all physicians complete a specialty residency after graduation, for example in internal medicine or radiology. Depending on the specialty, a residency takes between three and eight years. According to the American Board of Radiology, a radiology residency takes five years, and you choose one of four general areas, including interventional and diagnostic radiology, diagnostic radiology, medical physics or radiation oncology."

Myopractics restores the body's normal movement and flexibility, and eliminates tension and pain. You will wear clothes for this treatment. A basic principle of Myopractics is that life is motion. The body is a fluid and dynamic system that is in constant motion. Anything that obstructs this life movement and restricts body tissue will manifest as aches and pains, tension and stress, or limited mobility. When there is a lack of motion in the body, this is referred to as a \"\"restriction\"\". A restriction causes an imbalance in the body that typically results in increased muscle tension in the area of the restriction and in adjacent areas. The body will typically produce this muscle tension in an attempt to counteract the restriction and re-establish structural harmony. For example, many back problems are directly related to some structural imbalance from restrictions in the pelvic region."

They can also practice in pain clinics, intensive care units, or labor and delivery units. Becoming an anesthesiologist requires completion of undergraduate prerequisite courses, medical school, and a residency, as well as post-residency (fellowship) training if one wants to further specialize (for example, in pediatric anesthesiology). Undergraduate Education There is no official degree required for admission to medical school, and many baccalaureate programs can adequately prepare students for this endeavor. Some schools prefer graduates with a 4-year degree in natural sciences, which should include classes in physics, organic and inorganic chemistry, anatomy, and biology. Medical School Prior to specializing in anesthesiology, all perspective anesthesiologists must graduate from a 4-year Doctor of Medicine (MD) or Doctor of Osteopathy (DO) program at an accredited medical school. These extremely competitive programs are renowned for their academically demanding and time-consuming nature."

This is true for psychiatry and psychology. While most people are aware that both psychiatrists and psychologists treat people with mental health issues, many individuals struggle to differentiate the two. Let’s start with the largest difference between the two professions, which is the fact that psychiatrists are licensed medical doctors, which means that they have earned a medical degree and can prescribe medication to their patients. Alternatively, psychologists cannot prescribe medication, even if they have the doctor designation (Ph D, Psy D, Ed D)*. There are other differences between psychiatrists and psychologists but let’s review their definitions before we go any further. What is Psychiatry? In medical terms, psychiatry is a field of study which focuses on understanding and treating mental health problems. Psychiatry originated in the 1800s when Johann Christian Reil, a doctor from Germany, began studying how medicine could be used to treat mental health problems."

A pediatrician is a doctor who specializes in the care of children. More U. S. children receive health care from pediatricians than from any other kind of doctor. Experts in age-appropriate care, general pediatricians are considered primary care physicians for a large section of the population. Educated in a broad range of medical issues, they can often operate independently of the numerous specialists other doctors must consult with daily. Pediatricians are already specialist medical care providers, but those that take on an additional subspecialty can often earn higher pay. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) says that general pediatricians report more satisfying patient relationships than any other medical specialist. Recognizing the critical importance of early environments and experiences, pediatricians regularly have the chance to make a major positive difference in people's lives. Pediatrician Duties What does a pediatrician do from day to day? In a typical work week, a pediatrician might: Examine children for proper growth and development Maintain cumulative medical histories, reports, and test results Treat children with minor, acute, and chronic health problems Prescribe medication or therapy as part of treatment plans Counsel families in times of crisis Monitor progress for treatment effectiveness Supervise nurses and other assistive personnel How To Become A Pediatrician Pediatrician schooling is extensive."

January 29, 2011 in Health | Tags: Back Pain, Chiropractic, exercise, health, lifestyle, osteopathy What is the difference between Chiropractic and Osteopathy? This is one of the most frequently asked questions that I get asked and it has been answered many times, interestingly, in many ways, some of them, unfortunately, not always complimentary to one or the other profession. In the UK, Chiropractic and Osteopathy are very similar disciplines, with a large portion of their workload being very similar. For all their similarities they have the ability to behave like vampires and werewolves, in that they commonly don’t seem to mix and are always ready to tear each other apart. So let’s look at the historic foundations of these professions to see why they are so similar and if there is any reason for all that animosity. Now Chiropractors and Osteopaths didn’t just create manipulative therapy from thin air. It has been around for at least two and a half millennia. As early as the fourth century B. C., Hippocrates was using joint manipulation and traction techniques. However, the therapy was abandoned a couple of centuries ago by orthodox medical practitioners (along with the Hippocratic Oath – first do no harm) but was still used as a folk speciality by uneducated bonesetters."

These crime-fighting professionals carefully collect, process, and document pieces of evidence that are often invisible to the naked eye. Forensic scientists are responsible for solving some of the world’s most egregious abuses of people, institutions, and the environment. So what is it that forensic scientists actually do? According to the American Academy of Forensic Scientists (AAFS), these professionals analyze a variety of evidence types (e.g., soils, bodily fluids, fibers, plants, explosives, etc. ); utilize sophisticated chemical and biological technologies (e.g., mass spectrometry, liquid chromatography, etc. ); document findings in photographs, drawings, and reports; liaise with various specialists; reconstruct crime scenes; and testify in court as expert witnesses when necessary. There is a slew of forensic science subfields recognized by the Forensic Specialties Accreditation Board (FSAB)—including bloodstain analysis, document examination, medicolegal death investigation, and more—covered in the “Specialities” section below. They may work in the public or private sector, but the vast majority are employed by the local and state governments according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS 2014).

Forensic scientists need training in both law enforcement and science. Some prepare by obtaining degrees that focus on criminal investigation, while others pursue a science degree supplemented by legal training. Educational requirements vary widely by employer, with some smaller law enforcement agencies adopting more lenient requirements and allowing a significant amount of on-the-job training. Science Forensic scientists who work in a lab analyzing evidence and samples need a degree in the scientific discipline in which they specialize. For example, someone who performs DNA testing needs a biology degree, while someone who conducts testing on trace evidence such as fiber or hair samples needs a degree in chemistry. The Florida State University School of Criminology and Criminal Justice suggests chemistry as the best overall major for aspiring forensic scientists, adding that students should take elective courses related to the field they wish to specialize in. A forensic scientist specializing in DNA testing should supplement a biology degree with courses in genetics and biochemistry. Forensic Investigation Many universities offer undergraduate and graduate degree programs in forensic investigation or forensic science. While not a requirement for a forensic science career, these programs help students understand how to apply a scientific discipline such as chemistry or biology to the legal field."

"text": "The Basics The American Board of Forensic Psychology defines forensic psychology as “the application of the science and profession of psychology to questions and issues relating to law and the legal system.” Forensic psychologists work with a team of lawyers, judges, and police where scientific knowledge and expertise are needed. A forensic psychologist might be called upon to evaluate an individual whose mental status has been called into question to determine whether that individual were competent to testify in a court of law. He or she might be asked to examine a child to determine whether the child understood a lie from the truth or understood right from wrong. Forensic psychologists can work with victims of crime to help them through deal with their trauma and help to prevent post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The more glamorous role forensic psychologists play on television and movies, solving crimes and finding criminals with psychology, is much less common in real life. How Do Forensic Psychologists Help Police? Police departments often employ forensic psychologists to help them better understand the psychological underpinnings of criminal behavior. Forensic psychologists might help police by conducting research into criminality. The research of forensic psychologists is generally used by police to improve their ability to predict criminal behavior and devise strategies for effectively addressing crime."

What Forensic Science Technician Degrees and Certifications Exist? Below is a listing of the different types of forensic science technician programs, from technical certificates to master's degrees. Diploma in Forensic Science: Forensic science technician schools that offer a diploma in forensic science allow students to take fewer classes in order to receive some sort of training without having to pursue a lengthy degree program. Diploma programs may require between 75 and 90 credits and give students an adequate introduction into the field. Those who want to pursue an entry-level job as a forensic scientist assistant or who plan on receiving a forensic science technician degree later on can first try out this option. Crime Scene Technical Certificate: A crime scene technical certificate does not substitute for a forensic science technician degree, but it does train students in the skills needed to be a forensic science technician. Students learn how to prepare reports, work in a lab, and evaluate physical evidence found at a crime scene. If a student cannot major in forensic science at his or her college or does not have time to commit to a full-time degree program, a technical certificate will usually be a sufficient way to find entry-level work at the start of his or her career. Associate degree in Forensic Science: An associate level forensic science technician program is a good way to get a basic understanding of the field and position yourself for entry-level work or advanced study."

These psychologists use the techniques of psychology, including evaluation and treatment of clinical disorders, to provide reports, testimony and consultations to courts, attorneys and other individuals involved in the judicial system. As our technology and our tools for studying the human brain grow and advance, so does the job outlook for those practicing forensic psychology. If you're deciding to major in forensic psychology, looking for a new job, or opening up a private clinical practice, you can expect a good income. Academia and Research vs. Practice Most salary estimates provide salaries for forensic psychologists who are practicing rather than performing research. If you are entering a career in research or academia, your salary will generally be determined by the university or institution that employs you. Additionally, much of your funding may be provided through grants, for which you or the department will need to apply. The median salary for an assistant professor of psychology at a four-year college is approximately $52,000, while that of a researcher working at a university is around $63,000. Psychologists working for a consulting firm, however, have a median salary of around $75,000.

A forensic pharmacist's job responsibilities are slightly different than a forensic scientist's duties because a forensic pharmacist specifically applies the science of drugs to legal matters. Forensic pharmacists spend much of their time researching, testing and analyzing drug-related evidence for lawyers to use in litigation as part of the criminal justice system. Legal Cases Forensic pharmacists have expert skills evaluating drug-related evidence for court cases. According to the U. S. National Library of Medicine, some forensic pharmacists are employees of local, state and federal governments, and some work as freelance forensic-litigation consultants. These professionals offer valuable advice in legal situations involving drunken driving, drug-related suicides, drug-induced criminal activity, malpractice and poisoning. Forensic pharmacists test blood samples, examine human tissue and asses drug interactions to determine how drugs were connected to criminal activity, including murder. Death Investigations In cases where the cause of death is unknown, forensic pharmacists often asses a victim's medical records, legal and illegal drug habits, prescription medication history and lifestyle habits to determine if drugs were influential in the person's death. One drug alone might not cause death, but a combination of drugs might be fatal, so forensic pharmacists study how drugs interact with each other. For example, in some high-profile celebrity deaths, a mixture of alcohol and drugs was found to be responsible for the deaths."

Lacrosse, currently well over 500 college varsity and club teams compete in competitive lacrosse. Of those a few hundred are NCAA and NJCAA member schools where championship lacrosse is played. NCAA Lacrosse Scholarships The NCAA sponsors both Men’s and Women’s lacrosse at a couple of hundred schools and across all 3 divisions. Divs I and II are scholarship level play—schools may offer a maximum number of full-scholarships to their lacrosse players based on NCAA rules. Men’s D-I and D-II lacrosse teams are limited to 12.6 and 10.8 full scholarships, respectively."

The Terrapins' winning tradition (in the NCAA) started in 1953 when the Maryland football team was declared National Champions. Most recently, the women's lacrosse team added its 14th national title and the men's lacrosse team won its 12th national title in 2017. The field hockey program boasts eight national titles. Maryland is one of just two schools in history to have won the NCAA championship in both men's and women's basketball. Maryland's tradition of winning NCAA national championships began with football. Under the guidance of head coach Jim Tatum, the Terrapins won their first national championship in 1953 in a record of 10-1. Head coach Gary Williams' men's basketball team captured the 2002 NCAA title by defeating Indiana 64-52. The Terps finished the season with a 32-4 record, the best winning percentage in school history (.889). Under head coach Brenda Frese and a talented group of young players, the Maryland women's basketball team won the 2006 NCAA championship by defeating Duke in thrilling overtime battle 78-75 and finished the year ranked number one in the nation for the first time in the program's history."

SHARE TWEETBefore Robert and Amy Mc Cormick could see the racial injustice at the heart of big-time college sports, they had to wake up—literally. It was the summer of 2002, and the Mc Cormicks, a married pair of professors at Michigan State University, were living in an East Lansing neighborhood located between a block of student housing and the school's athletic department. Every morning around 5:30 a.m., Michigan State athletes would ride their bicycles past the Mc Cormicks' house on their way to practice. Among them was Charles Rogers, one of the best college football players in the country, a tall, speedy wide receiver whom professional scouts were likening to National Football League star Randy Moss. One morning, Robert saw Rogers whizzing by, his 6-foot-3 frame dwarfing a rickety bike that barely seemed road worthy. He's a first-round NFL draft choice, thought the sports and labor law professor, who had attended Michigan State himself and taught a sports law class at the university since 1984. Next year, he'll be making millions. But now, he's making nothing.

"text": "Things To Know About Men's Lacrosse Recruiters Earning a lacrosse scholarship can be a difficult process. Lacrosse is a rapidly growing sport, but scholarships for lacrosse are still limited because it is offered at fewer colleges than most sports. That’s why learning exactly how the lacrosse recruiting process works from a trusted resource like NCSA is essential.1. When does the lacrosse recruiting process start? Lacrosse recruiting starts early because the competition for lacrosse scholarships is extremely high. There are fewer than 300 men’s and fewer than 400 women’s college lacrosse programs. Compare that to a sport like men’s basketball, which is offered at 1,800 colleges, and it’s easy to see why schools are selective and why preparing for a lacrosse scholarship has to start early.2. How do I get discovered? A third-party evaluation from a trusted neutral source like NCSA is essential. Lacrosse is growing in the Midwest and California, but the East Coast is where it easily has the most popularity."

"text": "Lacrosse Contact Period: How Prospects can Become College Lacrosse Recruits Written by David Frank During the contact period, lacrosse coaches and recruits can have face-to-face contact on college campuses, at the recruit’s high school, or at the recruit’s home. What is a Contact Period? First, let’s start by defining a contact period : A contact period is a set time determined by the NCAA when coaches can contact athletes. It isn’t the only time an athlete and a coach can speak with each other, but there are less restrictions on communication. Coaches are allowed face-to-face contact with athletes on their college campus, as well as at an athlete’s school or in their home. When Does the Contact Period Occur in Men’s DI Lacrosse? There is a two week contact period that runs from January 7 to January 21, 2013. There is a secondary, longer contact period starting March 1 that continues until May 23, 2013, with a brief break for a dead period from April 15-18. Going from a Prospect to a College Lacrosse Recruit In the NCAA’s eyes, playing a sport for your school and graduating 8 th grade qualify you as a prospect. A recruit is an athlete that has had phone conversations with coaches, received personalized mail and e-mail (not simply generic letters and questionnaires), and have seen coaches interest start to increase."

Poll ended at Tue May 30, 2006 7:12 pm Yes4291%No48%Total votes : 46Coaches' Salaries?by CALax Rat on Fri Mar 31, 2006 6:12 pm I have been coaching lacrosse for 10 years now. I started at a PA high school coaching JV and received 3K from one of the less affluent schools in the Philly area. Right now I am an assistant lacrosse coach in Cali. I have been doing this basically on a volunteer basis, but I do find it odd the head coach is getting half of what I did 10 years ago (this is at one of the most affluent schools in the Bay Area). I do not think the parents quite get what a bargain they are getting for someone committing a minimum of 5 days a week and 3 hours a day (this does not include practice planning, gas, etc.). I wanted to see what the average pay is for a high school lacrosse coach out there. I did a search in the forums but could not find this information. What are the salaries of high school coaches out there in the lax community?"

"text": "\"Mc Donald's agrees to pay $3.75 million to settle wage-theft lawsuit Daniel Wiessner, Reuters Oct. 31, 2016, 4:58 PM 4,499Associated Press (Reuters) - Mc Donald's Corp has agreed to pay $3.75 million to settle a lawsuit claiming it was liable for labor law violations by a California franchisee, marking what lawyers said was the first time the company has settled legal claims by a group of U. S. workers at one of its franchises. In a filing in U. S. district court in San Francisco on Friday, lawyers representing about 800 employees at five restaurants owned by a single franchisee said Illinois-based Mc Donald's would pay the workers $1.75 million in back pay and damages and $2 million in legal fees. The settlement, which must be approved by a federal judge, comes as Mc Donald's faces claims before two U. S. agencies that it is a \"\"joint employer\"\" of workers at franchise restaurants, a designation that could make the company liable for legal violations by franchisees and require that it bargain with workers who unionize. Mc Donald's spokeswoman Terri Hickey said on Monday the company is not a joint employer of franchise workers. \"\" We entered into this mutually acceptable resolution to avoid the costs and disruption associated with continued litigation,\"\" she said. The 2014 lawsuit claimed Mc Donald's and the franchisee, Smith Family LP, violated California law by failing to pay overtime, keep accurate pay records and reimburse workers for time spent cleaning uniforms. The franchisee previously settled the claims for $700,000. Last year, a judge ruled that Mc Donald's was not the plaintiffs' joint employer under federal and state laws. But he said the company could still be held liable if the workers believed Mc Donald'swas their employer. In Friday's court filing, lawyers for the workers said the settlement was the first for Mc Donald's in a class action case brought by franchise employees."

By Mona Chalabi Filed under Wages Fast-food workers and activists demonstrate outside the Mc Donald’s corporate campus Wednesday in Oak Brook, Illinois. Scott Olson / Getty Images At the Mc Donald’s annual shareholder meeting in Oak Brook, Illinois, on Thursday morning, hundreds of the company’s employees were protesting, demanding a minimum wage of $15 per hour and the right to unionize. The night before, more than 100 of the fast-food chain’s workers were arrested for crossing a police barricade. Just how far off $15 per hour are wages at Mc Donald’s? And how does pay at Mc Donald’s compare to the fast-food industry overall? There are more than 3 million people employed preparing and serving food in the United States, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). They’re a significant part of the labor market, accounting for 23 of every 1,000 jobs in the country. As of May 2013, the food-preparation and service industry paid an average hourly wage of $9.08. In a separate BLS category, we find over half a million fast-food cooks who earn, on average, $9.07 an hour."

"text": "BUSINESS 10/21/2013 12:40 pm ET Updated Dec 06, 2017Mc Donald’s Billion-Dollar Profit Is Awkwardly Close To The Amount It Costs Taxpayers Every Year By Maxwell Strachan XMc Donald’s announced Monday that it raked in $1.5 billion in profits in the third quarter, up 5 percent from last year. The number is strikingly close to the $1.2 billion taxpayers are shelling out each year to help pay public assistance to the Mc Donald’s workforce, according to a report released last week by the National Employment Law Project. The echoing numbers are simply a coincidence, but underscore the immense profits that the chain continues to pull in while its workers simply struggle to afford food, medical help and housing. The public assistance Mc Donald’s workers receive comes via food stamps, welfare, Medicaid and other federal programs, according to the NELP report. In a statement to The Huffington Post, Mc Donald’s emphasized that workers get training and the opportunity for career advancement. The company also said that its franchisees pay competitive wages that are based on “local wage laws. ”Those wages are stunningly low. Frontline fast-food workers make a median wage of $8.94 an hour, according to a recent Reuters report. “ Fast-food workers work only 24 hours a week on average — at $8.94 an hour, this adds up to barely $11,000 a year,” wrote Christine Owens for Reuters in August. With wages that low, front-line fast food workers are more than twice as likely as the typical worker to participate in a government assistance program, according to the NELP report: The National Restaurant Association, an industry trade group, last week labeled the NELP report, and the data on which it was based, “misleading,” since they “fail to recognize that the majority of lower-wage employees works part-time to supplement a family income."

Now of course you would not receive full benefits, but you may receive partial benefits. I would also suggest to the manager that by being fully staffed he may receive other bonus benefits for pushing orders out. There are higher bonuses with sales and customer count etc. Obviously, in order to achieve those numbers you have to have enough people working to push the orders out.

One thing is pretty obvious that at the age of 16 your education is not much and your salary will be less accordingly. Also the nature of job will be clerical in most cases. So a 16 year old can earn between 10 to 15 dollars per hour at the maximum i guess. 15 dollars per hour makes 130 dollars a day on an 8 hour duty which is good.source: What is a reasonable salary for 16 year olds?

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search In statistics and econometrics, particularly in regression analysis, a dummy variable (also known as an indicator variable, design variable, Boolean indicator, binary variable, or qualitative variable [1] [2]) is one that takes the value 0 or 1 to indicate the absence or presence of some categorical effect that may be expected to shift the outcome. [ 3] [4] Dummy variables are used as devices to sort data into mutually exclusive categories (such as smoker/non-smoker, etc.). [ 2] For example, in econometric time series analysis, dummy variables may be used to indicate the occurrence of wars or major strikes. A dummy variable can thus be thought of as a truth value represented as a numerical value 0 or 1 (as is sometimes done in computer programming). Dummy variables are \"\"proxy\"\" variables or numeric stand-ins for qualitative facts in a regression model. In regression analysis, the dependent variables may be influenced not only by quantitative variables (income, output, prices, etc. ), but also by qualitative variables (gender, religion, geographic region, etc.). A dummy independent variable (also called a dummy explanatory variable) which for some observation has a value of 0 will cause that variable's coefficient to have no role in influencing the dependent variable, while when the dummy takes on a value 1 its coefficient acts to alter the intercept. For example, suppose membership in a group is one of the qualitative variables relevant to a regression. If group membership is arbitrarily assigned the value of 1, then all others would get the value 0."

"text": "CEO vs. worker pay: Walmart, Mc Donald’s, and eight other firms with biggest gaps By Schuyler Velasco, Staff writer December 12, 2013Worker pay has been a big story in 2013, with worker strikes in the retail and fast-food industries putting a harsh light on anemic wage gains alongside ballooning corporate profits. Now, a new study from Nerd Wallet and Glassdoor.com highlights just how vast the wage gap is in major US companies, comparing how much the United States' highest-paid chief executives make in an hour with the average hourly wage of their employees. Can you guess which company had the highest pay gap?10. AT&TRichard Drew/AP/File View Caption About video ads View Caption CEO: Randall Stephenson Average hourly worker wage: $13.28CEO’s hourly compensation: $7,412 (558 times the wage of an average worker)Overtime required to equal an hour of CEO pay: 1.45 months AT&T, the largest telecommunications company in the United States, has the smallest wage gap of the companies on the list. Part of the reason: the wage represented is for sales consultants, who require more than entry-level training. But it’s still huge. A retail sales consultant at AT&T would have to work 1.45 months of overtime to make what Stephenson makes in an hour. He earns about 558 times what the typical employee does. In April, AT&T agreed to pay $8.1 million to settle a class-action suit in which certain workers claimed that the company misclassified them as overtime-exempt supervisors while making them work 50 to 70 hours per week. For this study, Nerd Wallet used government earnings data and salary information from Glassdoor.com to survey the pay gaps at 100 major US companies."

They rechristened their business as a hamburger stand. The first time a Mc Donald's franchise used the Golden Arches logo was in 1953 at a location in Phoenix, Arizona. In 1955, Ray Kroc, a businessman, joined the company as a franchise agent and proceeded to purchase the chain from the Mc Donald brothers. Mc Donald's had its original headquarters in Oak Brook, Illinois, but has approved plans to move its global headquarters to Chicago by 2018. [ 4] [5]Mc Donald's is the world's largest restaurant chain by revenue [6], serving over 69 million customers daily in over 100 countries [7] across approximately 36,900 outlets as of 2016. [ 8] Although Mc Donald's is known for its hamburgers, they also sell cheeseburgers, chicken products, french fries, breakfast items, soft drinks, milkshakes, wraps, and desserts. In response to changing consumer tastes and a negative backlash because of the unhealthiness of their food, [9] the company has added to its menu salads, fish, smoothies, and fruit. The Mc Donald's Corporation revenues come from the rent, royalties, and fees paid by the franchisees, as well as sales in company-operated restaurants."

Mc Donald’s Corporation, together with its subsidiaries, franchises and operates Mc Donald’s restaurants in the food service industry worldwide. The company's share of the US fast food market is several times larger than its closest competitors, Burger King (BKC) and Wendy's (WEN). Mc Donald’s is a major component of the S&P 500 and Dow Industrials indexes. The company is also a dividend aristocrat, which has been consistently increasing its dividends for 32 consecutive years. From the end of 1998 up until December 2008 this dividend growth stock has delivered an annual average total return of 6.70% to its shareholders. At the same time company has managed to deliver an impressive 11.70% average annual increase in its EPS since 1999. Analysts are expecting MCD to grow EPS to $4.20 by 2010. The economic slowdown is making consumers to trade down and dine out at fast food places like the ones owned by the Golden Arches. Mcdonald’s has been focusing more on expanding the sales of existing restaurants since 2003 versus relying on new stores to be the driver for growth."

"text": "\"What is ARR and why do you need to measure it? There can be significant confusion over the term itself, the use, and the measurement of Annual Recurring Revenue because it feels and sounds like a measure of “revenue\"\" in the context of revenue recognition. However, Annual Recurring Revenue is not necessarily a measure of recognized revenue. It can and usually is calculated very differently, and is most certainly for a different purpose. For your organization, you define \"\"Annual Recurring Revenue,\"\" and most importantly, the rules for calculating and presenting it. When communicating information about your Annual recurring revenue with people outside your organization, it is important to understand your definition and computations and to be able to communicate the logic and rationale behind the definitions and calculations when presenting your annual recurring revenue metrics to analytics, venture firms, and investment bankers. Annual Recurring Revenue is a measure of the predicable and recurring revenue components of recurring revenue stream such as subscriptions or maintenance. Annual Recurring Revenue always excludes one-time fees and for most organizations, would exclude variable, usage, and consumption fees. Annual Recurring Revenue is a metric sometimes used by subscription business employing annual or multi-year term agreements. Like the more common and popular Monthly Recurring Revenue metric, Annual Recurring Revenue is a metric of the normalized value of recurring revenue."

It measures the amount of heat actually delivered to your house compared to the amount of fuel that you must supply to the furnace.

"text": "\"Share Tweet Pin It Email Print Low Mileage and Usage Based Discounts Low-Mileage and Usage-Based Car Insurance Discounts Insurance rates are based on risk. The lower the risk your auto insurance company believes you present, the lower they will charge you for your car insurance rates. Under this logic, car insurance companies will often offer: Low-mileage discounts – Reduced premiums for annual mileage that falls under a certain cap. Usage-based discounts – Savings for good driving habits (monitored by a device you place in your vehicle). NOTE: Your eligibility for a low-mileage discount may depend on your participation in a usage-based insurance program that tracks both your driving behavior and your mileage. Low-Mileage Discounts The definition of “low mileage\"\" varies with each provider; however, the mileage cap typically falls between 7,500 and 15,000 miles per year. If your annual mileage generally does not exceed this range, you should ask your car insurance company about a low-mileage discount. When to Ask About Low-Mileage Discounts Even if you're unsure of your exact annual mileage, you should consider looking into a low-mileage discount if: You're a senior driver who is retired. Not driving to and from work can equate into less annual miles. You move closer to your place of work or begin a home-based business."

Want to cut your home energy use? First, understand how you're charged By definition, a kilowatt-hour can be easily understood. But it can be hard to make dollars and sense of what it really means for daily home consumption. To figure out how much it costs to run each electrical device in your home, from appliances to heaters to hair dryers, we turned to BC Hydro's Pat Mathot. What is a kilowatt-hour? First, a reminder: for electric utilities, the kilowatt-hour (k Wh) is the most common billing unit for energy delivered to consumers. A kilowatt-hour is a unit of energy equivalent to one kilowatt of power expended for one hour of time. There are two simple elements to understanding your kilowatt-hour consumption: How many watts the device draws How much or how often it's used. To calculate k Wh, you take the wattage of the device, multiply that by the number of hours that you predict it's used, and divide by 1,000."

An employee is entitled to use sick leave for-personal medical needsfamily care or bereavementcare of a family member with a serious health conditionadoption-related purposes Sick Leave Accrual Description Time Full-time employees 1/2 day (4 hours) for each biweekly pay period Part-time employees 1 hour for each 20 hours in a pay status Uncommon tours of duty (4 hours) times (average # of hours per biweekly pay period) divided by 80 = biweekly accrual rate Sick Leave Accumulation There is no limitation on the amount of sick leave that can be accumulated. Advanced Sick Leave At the discretion of the agency, up to a maximum of 240 hours (30 days) of sick leave may be advanced to an employee when required by the exigencies of the situation. For further details and limitations, please see our fact sheet entitled Advanced Sick Leave. Sick Leave Usage Limits per Leave Year No limitation for an employee's own personal medical needs Up to 13 days (104 hours) of sick leave for general family care and bereavement each leave year Up to 12 weeks (480 hours) of sick leave to care for a family member with a serious health condition each leave year If an employee previously has used any portion of the 13 days of sick leave for general family care or bereavement purposes in a leave year, that amount must be subtracted from the 12-week entitlement. If an employee has already used 12 weeks of sick leave to care for a family member with a serious health condition, he or she cannot use an additional 13 days in the same leave year for general family care purposes. An employee is entitled to no more than a combined total of 12 weeks of sick leave each leave year for all family care purposes. Part-time employees and employees with uncommon tours of duty are also entitled to use sick leave, and the amount of sick leave which may be granted is pro-rated in proportion to the average number of hours of work in the employee's scheduled tour of duty each week. Definition of Family Member The definition of family member covers a wide range of relationships, including spouse; parents; parents-in-law; children; brothers; sisters; grandparents; grandchildren; step parents; step children; foster parents; foster children; guardianship relationships; same sex and opposite sex domestic partners; and spouses or domestic partners of the aforementioned, as applicable. The list of family members for whom an employee may request sick leave for family care or bereavement purposes (as well as important associated definitions for the terms son or daughter, parent, domestic partner, and committed relationship) may be found on our fact sheet Definitions Related to Family Member and Immediate Relative."

It is usually made from dairy products, such as milk and cream, and often combined with fruits or other ingredients and flavors. It is typically sweetened with sugar or sugar substitutes. Typically, flavourings and colourings are added in addition to stabilizers. The mixture is stirred to incorporate air spaces and cooled below the freezing point of water to prevent detectable ice crystals from forming. The result is a smooth, semi-solid foam that is solid at very low temperatures (< 2 °C or 35 °F). It becomes more malleable as its temperature increases.

The ten states with the largest populations of African Americans are New York, California, Texas, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, North Carolina, Louisiana, Michigan, and Maryland. Although most African Americans live in cities, it is impossible to generalize about how and where they live. African American families, like European American families, make their homes in every type of community—urban, suburban, and rural.2 HISTORY AND FOODIn the 1600s, African slaves were brought to the United States, along with their food and styles of cooking. They brought okra, sesame seeds, peanuts, black-eyed peas, and rice. Using these foods, they introduced new recipes to the existing American dishes. The slaves were also given only a small portion of food each week, so they learned to make dishes with the foods they had, such as pork, cornmeal, and vegetables. Several of these dishes such as cornbread and grits, which are dried and boiled grains from corn, are still made as of the twenty-first century. African Americans also continue to use molasses as a sweetener in their dishes and in drinks, such as iced tea. Beginning in the 1960s, interest in African American culture and heritage has grown."

"text": "Stories Report Reveals South Korean Soldiers Fed Poor Quality Foodby Harald Olsen on Monday, October 8, 2012 44 comments A South Korean soldier fries eggs on a shovel. Image for illustration purposes, obviously. A recent National Assembly investigation into food in the military revealed that a South Korean soldier is fed for just ₩2,051 won (1.42EUR/1.85USD) per meal, an amount far lower than that given to American soldiers and even less than most Seoul elementary school pupils receive. Images of inedible-looking barrack meals in the news have recently inspired outrage and accusations that the South Korean military wastes its massive budget. The member of the National Assembly behind the food budget report also made news recently for revealing another shocking military revelation: according to the most recent Ministry of Defense statistics, 64% of all deaths among members of the armed forces during the past five years have been from suicide. South Koreans have a complicated relationship with the military, simultaneously relying on a huge standing army in defence against the North but also resenting conscription and the strict hierarchy of the armed forces. While some comments praised the report, others repeated the argument that legislators will never understand military culture because so many of them did not serve. In fact, 46 of the 253 members of the current National Assembly who were eligible for the draft did not serve – that’s 18.2% ( source) – a figure in stark comparison to the 6.4% of the overall eligible male population who do not do military service ( source ). Political commentary often cites this disparity as an example of how politicians allegedly follow a different set of rules from the average citizen. Assembly Member Jung presented these images of meals served at training bases this September Article from E-Daily: Soldiers go hungry, daily meals worth just half of meals given to US Army While the annual budget for feeding the armed forces rose by 4% this year, it still remains at a low level."

"text": "\"Documentation ERS compares farm and retail prices for specific food items as well as for commodity groups. For commodities, individual foods are grouped into market baskets which contain a collection of foods representing what an American household may buy at retail during 1 year. The costs of market baskets at retail are compared with the prices received by farmers for a corresponding basket of agricultural commodities. Whether calculating statistics for individual foods or for market baskets, ERS relies on conversion factors to specify the amount of farm commodities in a retail product and to account for coproducts made from these commodities where necessary. The methodology behind this data series consists of three parts: How ERS Calculates Market Basket Statistics How ERS Calculates Farm Share for Individual Foods Conversion Factors Used in Calculating Farm Share Statistics Additionally, ERS uses data from the Agricultural Baseline Database in the data visualization: Price Spreads and Food Markets. See the section on Data Visualization below. How ERS Calculates Market Basket Statistics The process of generating market basket statistics has two steps: A market basket of foods is constructed to represent what U. S. households buy for at-home consumption over a 1-year period. Estimates of farm share and the farm-to-retail price spread (or difference between costs of the food basket at retail and the farm basket) are calculated using annual consumer and farm price data. Data Key sources of data are the Consumer Expenditure Survey (CE), which includes a diary for recording purchases, and Nielsen Homescan data. The CE is produced by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), and the data are used by BLS to calculate expenditure weights for the Consumer Price Index (CPI)."

I’m not saying this just because I’m particularly bad at counting. Which I am. I’m saying this because I’ve been there like a lot of times. This is just what happens when you grow up less than twenty miles from one of the world’s greatest natural wonders. You end up going there almost every year on a field trip when you’re in school and every single time someone comes to visit you when you’re an adult. In the past year alone, I’ve been to the Falls at least a half dozen times."

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

"text": "Print Breyers Rich History OUR HISTORYAN AMERICAN CLASSIC SINCE 1866A Rich History In 1866, as America recovered from the Civil War, William A. Breyer of Philadelphia hand-cranked his first gallon of ice cream. It was a special ice cream consisting of rich cream, pure cane sugar, fresh fruits, nuts and other flavors – some of the very same ingredients used today. He sold it to his neighbors with the promise that his ice cream was made with the finest ingredients. Word spread quickly, and Breyers® Ice Cream was soon declared Philadelphia’s best. Breyer opened his first retail ice cream shop in 1882. Within a short time, he and his family opened four more shops. Breyer continued to make all of the ice cream in the back of one of the shops, cranking it by hand and delivering it with his horse-drawn wagon. In 1896, 30 years after Breyer made his first gallon of ice cream, his family set up its first wholesale manufacturing plant. Breyer’s son, Henry, incorporated the business in 1908 and continued his father’s commitment to produce high-quality ice cream. By 1918, Breyers® Ice Cream Company was producing more than a million gallons of ice cream a year and shipping it to New York City and Staten Island, New York; Newark, New Jersey; and Washington, D. C. In 1926, Breyers® Ice Cream Company became a division of the National Dairy Products Corporation (NDPC), a growing organization of well-known brands."

Please take this into account when making your travel plans. Share your knowledge Article History (76)Comments (29)Food in the United States is as diverse as the geography and the people that live here. Each region has its particular style of cooking or special dish, and each dish has a history that intertwines with both the geography and people. When traveling throught the United States, it is important to remember that just beneath the surface is actually an enormous variety of foods and traditions, some of which date back almost 400 years and little of it having to do with the sterotypical fast food. This article by no means is meant to cover American haute cuisine or Michelin star contenders : neither of these is really eaten by the average citizen except for very special occasions. The average American only really ventures out for fine dining when it is his intention to romance someone special, when he is getting married or attending a wedding, to celebrate a birthday or a promotion at work, or to celebrate his mother on Mother's Day, in early May. The rest of the time, he eats standard American cooking which has a simple and casual nature. If one were to actually peer inside an authentic American cookbook, such as Irma Rombauer's Joy of Cooking, one would realize that none of it was ever intended to impress an aristocrat or a food critic of fine dining: it's home cooking that rules the roost, and most recipes began their lives around the family dinner table. Native Americans, immigrants, slaves, and the poor and middle classes have had an incredible influence on standard cooking sometimes mixing together or helping to make a patchwork of canon good eats."

For some reason, if it was close to Christmas, it meant there was likely a jar or more of ube jam in the fridge. I have only discovered recently why this was the case in our home. Turns out the season for kinampay or ube in Bohol, where my mom grew up spending her summer vacations, starts in late November and lasts until late January. The incredibly fragrant ube from the island of Bohol is available in abundance during the holiday season…duhhh, that was simple. Boholanos are proud of their ube and it seems the combination of weather conditions, soil quality (or lack of it), etc. has yielded, in their minds, a provincial specialty unlike that of other ube growing regions in the country… I, of course, as a “descendant†of the province…buy the “our ube is best theory,†of course…Ube or purple yam is one of several edible tubers that are part of the broad genus Dioscorea according to The Oxford Companion to Food by Alan Davidson. They are not closely related to sweet potatoes nor regular potatoes as most folks might assume. More specifically, ube is one of many yams under the species Dioscorea Alata that thrive all across Southeast Asia and the South Pacific and range in colors from white to deep purple and several shades/colors in-between. Ube can grow to mammoth proportions, with large specimens in Baguio weighing close to 6 or more kilos!"

And have been served fried onion rings that were actually broken circles, not neat, closed rounds of onions. And don’t get me started on thinly sliced fruit being called carpaccio. So I have seen the error of my ways, and you’ll be happy to know that I slavishly followed the recipe for classic Salade Niçoise, as espoused by Jacques Médecin in his book Cuisine Niçoise. ( Not this one .) Which everyone in Provence agrees gets the last word on cuisine from their region. For example, once can not put grilled or seared tuna on the salad and call it a salade Niçoise. Canned tuna or anchovies are acceptable, but not both."

But it's gelato, ice cream's Italian cousin, that's keeping more customers coming back. Gelato sales rose from $11 million in 2009 to an estimated $214 million in 2014, which has kept frozen dessert sales afloat, according to the market research firm Mintel. Gelato has gained ground in part because it's novel, says Beth Bloom, an analyst at Mintel. And, because we tend to think of gelato as \"\"this special thing made by artisans in small, premium batches,\"\" she says. But is gelato really all that different? I'll admit that whenever I take in a mouthful, I often wonder if I'm really just eating ice cream with an exotic name slapped on."

Too often they’re imbued with a kind of subliminal scolding, that if only you could find the right fuel mix, you’d shed pounds and be able to do the 50-yard dash without pulling a ligament and throwing up all over the finish line. In these pyramid schemes, foods aren’t delicious or comforting; they’re things to be used, two or three times daily. In short, food pyramids are a drag. So we endeavored to come up with our Detroit food pyramid. It comes with no health promises (and should probably be stamped with a big, red Surgeon General’s warning), but it will help you compose a daily diet of Detroit, healthful and otherwise.

Coffee Ice Cream with Old-Fashioned Hot Fudge Sauce Ice Cream: Fat and Fluffy Ice cream is a frozen dairy dessert made of milk, cream, sugar, and (typically) egg yolks. Traditionally, French-style ice cream contained egg yolks and was richer than American-style ice cream, which didn't initially contain eggs. However, American ice cream has now evolved to also include the yolks. The ingredients in ice cream are first cooked together into a rich custard. After the custard base is cooled, it's churned at a fairly high speed to incorporate air and increase its volume (cheaper ice creams tends to have more air whipped into them). Ice cream is served at a fairly cold temperature that makes scoops hold together, and the finished product is smooth, light-textured, and creamy."

"text": "\"Excerpt: 'Baseball in the Garden of Eden'John Thorn Simon & Schuster Baseball in the Garden of Eden By John Thorn Hardcover, 384 pages Simon & Schuster List Price: $26Introduction Reflecting on the appeal of history in Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey, heroine Catherine Morland comments, \"\"I often think it odd that it should be so dull, for a great deal of it must be invention.\"\" Indeed. And in no field of American endeavor is invention more rampant than in baseball, whose whole history is a lie from beginning to end, from its creation myth to its rosy models of commerce, community, and fair play. The game's epic feats and revered figures, its pieties about racial harmony and bleacher democracy, its artful blurring of sport and business — all of it is bunk, tossed up with a wink and a nudge. Yet we love both the game and the flimflam because they are both so . . . American. Baseball has been blessed in equal measure by Lincoln and by Barnum. Miss Austen's novel, written in 1798, but published posthumously twenty years later, is today well known in baseball-history circles not for the passage above but for this one: Mrs. Morland was a very good woman, and wished to see her children everything they ought to be; but her time was so much occupied in lying-in and teaching the little ones, that her elder daughters were inevitably left to shift for themselves; and it was not very wonderful that Catherine, who had nothing heroic about her, should prefer cricket, base ball, riding on horseback, and running about the country at the age of fourteen, to books—or at least books of information. . . . Yet before April 1937, when Robert W. Henderson of the New York Public Library called public attention to this Austen reference to baseball, and to an even earlier woodcut of the game in John Newbery's A Little Pretty Pocket-Book (1744), few Americans knew that English boys and girls had played a game called baseball, whatever its rules may have been. Magnanimously, we had granted the Brits their primacy in cricket; some American cosmopolites might go so far as to acknowledge a playing-fields link between their national game and ours — perhaps, as the early sportswriter Henry Chadwick claimed, through rounders — but baseball, well, that was our game."

"text": "What E Pluribus Unum Means March 22, 2012 Daven Hiskey 21 comments Today I found out what “E pluribus unum” means. E pluribus unum translates from Latin to English as follows: “e” meaning “from” or “out of”; “pluribus” being the ablative plural of the Latin for “more”; and “unum” meaning “one”. Thus, “E pluribus unum” simply means “from many, one” or “out of many, one”. This Latin phrase was once the United States’ motto and can be found on the official seal of the U. S., among other places. It is thought to have been borrowed from the cover of a popular English periodical, The Gentlemen’s Magazine. This particular magazine was an extremely popular and influential men’s magazine among the elite and highly educated. While some of the content of the magazine was original, much of it was gathered from other sources (hence the word “magazine”, meaning “storehouse”, being used for the first time to describe a periodical). On the cover of this periodical, they’d generally include the phrase “E Pluribus Unum” signifying they gathered the content from a variety of sources. Pierre-Eugène Ducimetière, the artistic consultant for the design of the official seal of the U. S., The Great Seal, suggested that this be placed on the seal, which it finally was in 1782 after three major revisions to the seal design. In this context, this was meant to signify the 13 colonies forming one unified government."

John Grobe August 7, 2017 Pay & Benefits Comments (77)Those of you who have read my articles on Fed Smith for the last ten years know that I am not an accountant and tend to speak of economic decisions in generalities. I had significant help on this article from Dan Jamison, CPA, who is the founder of FERSGUIDE (a great resource for federal employees and retirees). It seems like every day there’s another news article published regarding cuts to federal retirement benefits proposed in President Trump’s budget, by the Republican Study Committee and by the House Budget Committee. It’s important to understand why none of these proposals make any sense when you consider how federal retirement benefits are funded. Yes, these monies are disbursed to annuitants after they retire, but these benefits were funded over the course of the annuitant’s federal career. It’s the funding part of this process that our lawmakers are failing to understand. FERSThe Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS) is a fully-funded defined benefit plan. When FERS replaced the Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS), it was designed so there would be no unfunded pension liability for the plan. The Office of Personnel Management’s (OPM) actuarial staff developed what they term “normal costs” for the expense of the benefits provided by FERS."

It is flap topped and not pointed like a pyramid should be. Usually, when a pyramid was constructed, the top part, or capstone (also called top-stone), was the last thing to be placed on it. It was considered the most important part of the pyramid and was made of special stone or even gold. The capstone was usually highly decorated. Was the great pyramid always without a capstone or was it stolen, destroyed, etc? No one knows but the accounts of visitors to the pyramid from the ancient past (as far back as the time of Christ) always reported that the pyramid lacked a capstone. It is possible that it was never finished. Another possibility is that capstones were sometimes made of gold and maybe the first thing looted. The only problem is that this would be a very large capstone."

"text": "While annuity products are often primarily purchased with an eye toward securing retirement income, unexpected issues that can arise when a contract owner or annuitant dies can create postmortem tax problems that can now actually be addressed when the contract is purchased. In particular, issues that can arise when the contract is annuitant-driven (rather than only owner-driven) must be carefully analyzed in order to ensure that the client’s expectations are met. Unfortunately, a client who does not fully understand the differences between owner and annuitant-driven contracts may be in for an unpleasant surprise down the road—especially if the contract is providing income for two spouses. Fortunately, insurance carriers have developed a new form of annuitant-driven fixed indexed annuity that can help married couples avoid some of the complications that can cause both unanticipated retirement income outcomes and adverse tax consequences. Owner- vs. Annuitant-Driven While many clients purchase annuity products with an aim toward generating secure retirement income, an annuity product may also be useful in the estate planning context, as it can pay out a death benefit upon the death of the annuity owner or the annuitant (the individual whose age and sex is used in determining the amount of the annuity payments—also known as the contract’s measuring life). While the owner and the annuitant are often the same person, there are circumstances in which, for one reason or another, they are not. For example, it may be the case that one individual cannot be named annuitant because the insurance carrier imposes age restrictions on the annuitant, but not upon the owner. Additionally, if one spouse cannot be the owner because he or she is disabled, the second spouse may own the contract and name the disabled spouse as annuitant. In these instances, whether the contract is owner-driven or annuitant-driven becomes important (as does the selection of the contract’s actual beneficiaries). As the names suggest, an annuitant-driven contract pays out a death benefit upon the death of the primary annuitant, while an owner-driven contract pays the death benefit upon the death of the owner."

On July 4, 1776, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, and Thomas Jefferson were given the task of creating a seal for the 13 United States of America. The delegates of the Constitutional Convention believed an emblem and national coat of arms would be evidence of an independent nation and a free people with high aspirations and grand hopes for the future. The Great Seal was finalized and approved six years later on June 20, 1782. The symbols on the seal reflect the beliefs and values that the Founding Fathers wanted to pass on to their descendants. Symbols on Obverse of The Great Seal Eagle: In the center of the seal is a bald eagle (our national bird )."

"text": "\"There are a lot of myths and controversies surrounding the dollar bill. Urban legends tie the bill to the Masonic order, and some people will argue that the symbols on it reveal long-lost secrets of the country. The dollar went through many changes in size, color, and overall design. The first dollar note to be issued as a Legal Tender Note was created in 1862 and featured a portrait of Treasury Secretary Salmon P. Chase. The current design of the dollar, which is the one surrounded in mystery, wasn't printed until 1969. The main symbols on the dollar bill are the Great Seal of the United States, the unfinished pyramid, and the Eye of Providence. The all-seeing eye over the unfinished pyramid is supposed to portray the United States as a land continuously growing and far from finished, although some believe it indicates a connection to the Illuminati secret society. The bald eagle on the dollar bill is a symbol of victory and courage. The dollar bill also has many Latin phrases spread throughout. The main ones read: E Pluribus Unum: \"\"From many, one\"\"Novus Ordo Seclorum: \"\"A new order has begun\"\" or \"\"a new order for the ages\"\"Annuit Coeptis: \"\"God has favored our undertaking\"\"The number 13 plays an important role in the dollar bill, as it is the number of original colonies in the country."

"text": "Annuity Taxes - How Are Beneficiaries Affected?written by: Shobha Sriram•edited by: Doreen Martel •updated: 6/16/2011Because an annuity reduces current tax cost, it is a popular investment vehicle. However, this is not always the case for beneficiaries of annuities. Annuity beneficiaries need to have a complete understanding of the taxes associated with annuities. Investment avenues like real estate and stocks have been accumulated for years, gained huge capital appreciation, and passed on to beneficiaries with zero tax liability. But in the case of annuities, there are no such tax benefits. Furthermore, the beneficiary of a tax-deferred annuity is also subject to income tax on the entire annuity gain. An annuity provides high interest and deferred tax facility on the savings of annuitants. It does not levy current tax on accumulations. As it allows the compounding of yearly interest earnings tax-free, the annuitant can accumulate a large account value making the annuity a popular investment vehicle. Annuities help accumulate money safely for future utility."

"text": "\"Education & Reference Words & Wordplay Why does it say E plurabus unum on every coin?why does it Follow 5 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: IT'S LATIN FOR, \"\"OUT OF MANY,ONE\"\" E pluribus unum translated from Latin, it means \"\"From many, one\"\" or \"\"Out of many, one\"\" (e = out of, from; pluribus = many; unum = one). \"\" E Pluribus Unum\"\" was one of the first national mottos of the United States of America. \"\" E PLURIBUS UNUM\"\" in capital letter spelling, is included on most U. S. currency, with some exceptions to the letter spacing (e.g. the U. S. dime reverse side). ( See US coinage and paper bills in circulation) E pluribus unum referred to the integration of the 13 independent colonies into one united country, and has taken on an additional meaning, given the pluralistic nature of American society from immigration. The motto itself has thirteen letters. The motto was selected by the first Great Seal committee in 1776, at the beginning of the American Revolution. Pierre Eugene Du Simitière originally suggested e pluribus unum as the motto. When the Continental Congress approved this motto for the Great Seal in 1782, they simultaneously approved two other mottos: Annuit Coeptis (the beginning is approved) and Novus Ordo Seclorum (a new order of the ages), as official national mottos. Today \"\"In God We Trust\"\" is printed on most U. S. currency. In 1956, e pluribus unum was superseded by \"\" [ [In God We Trust]]\"\" as the national motto by United States Code, Title 36, Subtitle I, Part A, Chapter 3, Section 302."

That money is to be paid back to the insured in fixed, incremental amounts, over some future period (predetermined by the insured). The insurer invests the premium; the resulting profit/ return on investment funds the payments received by the insured and compensates the insurer.

The best place to view The Great Seal is on the back of the dollar bill, where each side of the Seal flanks the central words, “ In God We Trust .”The Great Seal – Theological Significance Professor and senior fellow at the Claremont Institute Thomas G. West notes that the theological significance of The Great Seal has been largely lost because of the common misconception that its symbols are rooted in Freemasonry. In the spring 2010 issue of the journal The City, Dr. West references a 1782 document written by the Seal’s creator, Charles Thomson, explaining its various symbols. On the reverse side of the Seal, there is an unfinished pyramid with 13 rows of bricks, representing the 13 original colonies. Engraved on the bottom row are the Roman numerals, MDCCLXXVI, to signify the Declaration of Independence, written in 1776, as the foundation upon which the country is built. The pyramid is unfinished because “America is a work in progress.” Underneath the pyramid the words, “Novus Ordo Seclorum,” are literally rendered “a new order of the ages.” It is “new,” writes West, because “no nation has ever grounded itself on a principle, discovered by reason, affirmed by God, and shared by all human beings: ‘that all men are created equal: that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.’” In the words of Charles Thomson, the motto signifies “the beginning of the New American Era,” not the beginning of a new world order, as is commonly reported today. Raised above the pyramid, an omniscient eye, enclosed in a triangle, represents the triune God who is associated with the nation in three ways: 1) as a Protector and Guide—the glory emanating from the eye suggests the pillar of fire guiding the Israelites of Exodus."

Assuming you are referring to a Non-Qualified Annuity (for example: not IRA, or Roth dollars), the first dollars out would be considered your gain and taxed at ordinary income tax rates. Additionally if you are under age 59 1/2 , an early withdrawal 10% penalty tax would also apply to the gain. The penalty is only assessed on the amount you distribute that represents a gain. That penalty, but not the tax, can be avoided if you elect distributions under section 72 (t) of the IRS code.

"text": "Back I'm confused--is an annuity an investment vehicle or an insurance policy? Answer: An annuity is a distinctive financial product. Although it's not an insurance policy per se, it is a contract with an insurance company. Many different types of annuities exist, with many different features. A deferred annuity is a savings vehicle that accumulates earnings on a tax-deferred basis. An immediate annuity is a financial instrument that converts a lump-sum premium into a stream of payments over a certain period of time or for as long as the annuitant lives. Here's how a deferred annuity works. You (the annuity owner) make a lump-sum payment or a series of premium payments to an annuity issuer (the insurance company), which will accumulate earnings at a fixed interest rate (a fixed annuity) or a variable rate determined by the growth (or losses) in investment options known as subaccounts (a variable annuity). This is known as the accumulation period. With some deferred annuities, during the accumulation period you are allowed to withdraw a percentage of the principal and earnings without incurring surrender charges."

There are a number or annuity types, customizable depending on the financial need. What is the Purpose of an Annuity? Providing a secure financial future means more than saving enough money to build up your 401 (k). Often, people choose to invest in other financial options to secure their family’s financial future, pay off excess debt and provide for loved ones long after their death. A common investment tool to aid in these endeavors in an annuity. An annuity is a financial contract between you — the investor — and an insurance company, and is designed to help accumulate assets as an additional form of income.

"text": "Truth About Annuities Helping you avoid Annuity fraud and scams... Understanding Annuities: Maturity Date and Surrender Charges Maturity Date and Surrender Charges The recent confusion surrounding the “maturity date” is exacerbated because the term is a misnomer originating from life insurance policy language. There it refers to the date at which the policy matures and an endowment or income is automatically paid. For an annuity, the maturity date or more appropriately, the “income date” is the date at which periodic income will be paid. For most annuities, the income date is flexible, meaning that it can be changed. Thus, an annuity owner can extend the maturity date allowing the owner to have a longer period for the cash value to accumulate tax-deferred. All annuities include a date at which deferral is no longer allowed and income must be taken from the annuity. While some annuities may initially establish a maturity date that is at the end of the surrender charge period, there is no necessary relationship between the surrender charge period and the maturity date. To suggest that the surrender charge period lasts until the maturity date is incorrect. An egregious example of confusing income date with surrender charge period occurred at a hearing NAFA attended in California this past August. Someone incorrectly testified that annuities lock up your money for 40 or 50 years and used an example of a client who “couldn’t get at his money until he turned age 140.”"

"text": "Annuity Surrender Charges and Penalties Let’s face it, sometimes annuities get a bad rap in the investment world and perhaps some of that is deserved. In fairness, those who are talking down these accounts are usually trying to sell some other financial product. However, the bottom line is investors are usually and understandably concerned about access to their deposited funds. Safe investments need to provide suitable liquidity for living needs, emergencies, and required minimum distributions. Annuity Surrender Charges Almost all deferred annuities carry some type of early surrender penalty during the chosen investment term. The penalty is usually a percentage of the invested amount that decreases each year until the end of the chosen annuity term. Most deferred annuity accounts carry a term that is between 1 and 10 years. Should you withdraw all of your funds before your chosen term is up, then you will incur a surrender penalty. Early surrender percentage amounts will vary from company to company and will always be included in your application and contract material.

Variable Annuity The gains you may or may not accrue in a variable annuity are based on the performance of the underlying sub-accounts into which you allocated your premium. Sub-accounts are similar to mutual funds and usually reflect an investment strategy ranging from conservative to aggressive. It is important to understand that it is possible to lose your money in a variable annuity. Yes, your premium is at risk. If someone tells you that it is impossible to lose your money with a variable annuity they are misleading you."

"text": "\"What is 'Surrender Charge'A surrender charge is a fee levied on a life insurance policyholder upon cancellation of their life insurance policy. The fee is used to cover the costs of keeping the insurance policy on the insurance provider's books. A surrender charge is also known as a \"\"surrender fee. \"\" Next Up Surrender Period Surrender Rights L Share Annuity Class Fixed Annuity BREAKING DOWN 'Surrender Charge'The surrender charge is usually waived if the insured party informs the insurer in advance of the cancellation of his or her policy, and then continues to pay for a period of time before canceling the policy. Also, most investments that carry a surrender charge, such as B-share mutual funds, annuities, and whole life insurance, pay upfront commissions to the salespeople who sell them. The issuing company then recoups the commission through internal fees it charges in the investment. However, if an investment is sold before enough years pass, those internal fees will not be enough to cover the commission costs, which results in the issuing company losing money. Surrender charges protect against these types of losses. Surrender charges can apply for time periods as little as 30 days or as much as 15 years on some annuity and insurance products. For annuities and life insurance, the surrender fee often starts at 10 percent if you cash in your investment in year one."

"text": "\"Home » Fixed Index Annuities A Beginner's Tutorial for Fixed Index Annuities Written by Hersh Stern Updated Wednesday, March 14, 2018A Fixed Index Annuity is a tax-favored accumulation product issued by an insurance company. It shares features with fixed deferred interest rate annuities; however, with an index annuity, the annual growth is bench-marked to a stock market index (e.g., Nasdaq, NYSE, S&P500) rather than an interest rate. An index annuity’s growth is subject to rate floors and caps, meaning it will not exceed or fall below the specified return levels even if the underlying stock indices fluctuate outside of those set parameters. In simplest terms, the insurance company bears the risk of a sharp stock market decline with this type of annuity. You cannot lose any of your principal with a fixed index annuity, and your potential gains are usually capped at a rate between 3% and 9%. Many fixed index annuities also offer premium bonuses, but usually at the expense of lower potential gains. Fixed Index Annuities Offer Tax Deferral One advantage that a fixed index annuity has over a mutual fund or a bank Certificate of Deposit (CD) is that earnings grow on a tax-deferred basis. This means you pay no income taxes until you withdraw money from the annuity. This is especially important when you buy your index annuity with personal savings (so-called after-tax or “non-qualified” funds). Index annuities can also be purchased using rollover funds, funds transferred from a tax-qualified plan (i.e. IRA), or with a lump sum distribution from a 401k or pension plan."

Well with an annuity, the principal return is tax-deferred, and you will only pay taxes upon withdrawal of funds. So as your saving - you pay no taxes! The result over the long-term is more cash available to earn interest. When you're ready to withdraw funds from your annuity, you may can choose your pay out option for guaranteed income. With the payout option you can choose to receive either fixed or variable payouts for a specific amount of time. Once your pay out income begins, you will pay taxes only as funds are paid to you. This offers more security and more funds in your account to earn interest."

"text": "\"What types of fees should an annuity investor expect to pay? It depends upon whether it is a fixed annuity or a variable annuity . Costs are a critical situation, so definitely ask you financial advisor to spell-out the costs for each of the items discussed below. Fixed annuities generally do impose direct expenses on the contract holder . That said, surrender charges (applied if a contract is cancelled within the initial several years) do come into play with certain types of fixed annuities. Surrender charges are typically around 5% - 7% of the annuity contract value, and they will decrease to zero over a certain period of time such as 5 - 7 years. Variable annuities have: 1) investment management fees, and; 2) insurance charges. Investment management fees compensate the managers of the mutual funds or investment options that are available. Fees are based upon \"\"assets under management\"\" and might range, for example, from 50 basis points to 1.5%. So, if you have $100,000 that is fully invested in mutual funds and the asset management fee is 1% you would be paying $1,000 per year to the asset manager."

As opposed to a fixed annuity that offers a guaranteed interest rate and a minimum payment at annuitization, variable annuities offer investors the opportunity to generate higher rates of returns by investing in equity and bond subaccounts. If a variable annuity is annuitized for income, the income payments can vary based on the performance of the subaccounts. Next Up Immediate Variable Annuity Valuation Period Deferred Payment Annuity Hybrid Annuity BREAKING DOWN 'Variable Annuity'Variable annuities were introduced in the 1950s as an alternative to fixed annuities, which offer a guaranteed rate of interest. Variable annuities allow investors to invest in a dozen or more professionally managed subaccounts consisting of various asset classes, including stocks, bonds and money market funds. This gives investors the opportunity to earn higher rates of return, which can increase the amount of capital they can accumulate and provide a variable income stream to potentially outpace inflation. However, investors assume the risk of their subaccounts not outperforming the guaranteed return of a fixed annuity, which can result in less capital accumulation and a smaller income stream. Variable Annuity Pros and Cons One advantage variable annuities have over mutual funds is the guaranteed death benefit feature. Regardless of how the subaccounts perform, a variable annuity death benefit ensures the annuity owner’s beneficiaries receive no less than the initial investment. Variable annuity investors pay for the cost of that protection through a mortality charge."

"text": "\"navigation search A variable annuity is an insurance contract that delays payments of income (periodic or systematic withdrawals, or annuitized payouts) until the investor elects to receive them. This type of annuity has two main phases, the savings phase in which you invest money into the account, and the income phase in which the plan is converted into income and payments are received. Earnings within the contract are tax deferred, and are taxed upon withdrawal at income tax rates (similar to qualified retirement plans) and share with these plans the 10% early penalty tax for withdrawals made prior to age 59 and 1/2. If the annuity is held within a retirement plan it is known as a \"\"qualified\"\" annuity and distributions are totally taxable. If the annuity is purchased in the taxable account it is known as a \"\"non-qualified\"\" variable annuity and only the earnings are subject to tax. Variable annuity withdrawals are made on an earnings first, basis last principle. Variable annuities come with an array of insurance options, all of which add to the cost of investment in the contract. These guarantees are subject to the continuing claims paying solvency of the insurer.

( March 2012) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)In the United States, an annuity is a contractually executed, relatively low-risk investment product, where the insured (usually, an individual) pays a life insurance company a lump-sum premium at the start of the contract. That money is to be paid back to the insured in fixed, incremental amounts, over some future period (predetermined by the insured). The insurer invests the premium; the resulting profit/ return on investment funds the payments received by the insured and compensates the insurer.

Cash surrender value is the accumulated portion of a permanent life insurance policy's cash value that is available to the policyholder upon surrender of the policy. Depending on the age of the policy, the cash surrender value could be less than the actual cash value. In the early years of a policy, life insurance companies can deduct fees upon cash surrender.

"text": "Banking and Loans Banking Basics Annuity Surrender Period: Charges and Tips to Pay Less How Surrender Periods Work Share Flip Pin Email•••By Justin Pritchard Updated August 22, 2016Annuities are not the most flexible investments in the world. It’s fairly easy to get money in, but getting it out can be painful. In addition to income taxes and penalties, some annuities are subject to surrender charges – which often come as a surprise. If your annuity has a “surrender period,” take a few extra minutes to research surrender charges before you pull any money out of that annuity. A surrender period is the amount of time that you must keep your funds in the annuity to avoid paying penalty charges to the insurance company. You’re often (but not always) allowed to take money out whenever you want – but if you take out too much during the surrender period you’ll pay dearly. How Surrender Periods Work Surrender periods often last seven or eight years, but other options are available (including four years, zero years, and more than 10 years). The clock starts ticking when you deposit money into your annuity, and eventually goes away entirely. The penalty is a percentage of your “excess” withdrawal that will be taken by the insurance company. For example, you might have a penalty of 5%, so a $1,000 withdrawal subject to surrender charges would cost you $50."

Annulment of marriage refers to the process by which a marriage is declared void, as though it never existed. Usually annulment is retroactive, although some jurisdictions consider the marriage void only from the date of annulment. A judgment of annulment declares a marriage to be invalid. Invalid marriages are of two types: void marriages and voidable marriages. A void marriage is invalid from the date of marriage and, therefore, cannot lawfully exist. A court will grant a decree of annulment once grounds such as bigamy, incest and lack of consent are proved. In the case of voidable marriage, it is valid until an annulment is sought. Annulment of a voidable marriage comes into effect only when a court makes its decision. Annulment of marriage is governed by state laws."

MANILA, Philippines—The call came in the middle of a workday. My lawyer’s name flashed on the caller-ID screen, and there was no small talk when I picked up. “I have the court decision,” she said. She was literally holding my future in her hands, in the form of an annulment decision we had sought for four years. After opening the envelope, she rambled a bit, skimming the contents out loud to fill the dead air. Then she paused. “Petition approved."

"text": "Catholic Annulment: Was a Marriage Valid? Many people seem to misunderstand Catholic annulment. Truth be told, back when I was entering the Catholic Church, I used to think of it as a sort of “Catholic divorce. ”But annulment in the Catholic Church comes from the great value we place on marriage. Annulment upholds, rather than undercuts, the Catholic teaching on the sanctity and permanence of marriage. And if I learned to understand this, you can, too!Here’s the whole point: Divorce says that you were once married, but now you aren’t. Divorce is a matter of civil law. Annulment says you were never truly married in the first place. Something necessary for a valid marriage was missing. Annulment is a matter of Church law."

"text": "\"Annulment Definition: To make void forever; to cancel an event or judicial proceeding both retroactively and for the future so that in the eyes of the law, it never occurred. Related Terms: Marriage Where, for example, a marriage is annulled, it is struck from all records and stands as having never transpired in law. This differs from a divorce which merely cancels a valid marriage only from the date of the divorce. A marriage is said to be dissolved ( dissolution) by a divorce whereas an annulment is a judge's formal declaration that the marriage, in law, never existed. A marriage annulled stands, in law, as if never performed. To wit, these words of Justice Richard Arnold of the United States Court of Appeals in Everetts:\"\" (A)n annulment is a judicial declaration that no marriage existed. \"\" Care should be taken where the word is used in context other than family law as it has been known to occur in the jurisprudence as if synonymous with cancellation, revocation or dissolution. For example, in Committee on Legal Ethics, the Court had occasion to note the by-laws of the West Virginia State Bar by-laws that:\"\"The license of any attorney shall be annulled and such attorney shall be disbarred upon proof that he has been convicted ... of any crime involving moral turpitude or professional unfitness. \"\" However, in a bankruptcy case, In re Lett, Justice Jerry Venters of the United States Bankruptcy Court wrote:\"\"Annul means, among other things, to make void or of no effect, to nullify or do away with. To annul a judgment or judicial proceeding is to deprive it of all force and operation, either ab initio or prospectively as to future transactions. \"\""

A: When certain circumstances, exist, a court can grant a marriage annulment, which means that the marriage is not only terminated, but treated as if it never took place. Q: What are these certain circumstances? A: The circumstances under which a marriage is annulled are called \"\"grounds.\"\" There are six grounds for an annulment. You may qualify for an annulment if, at the time of the marriage: 1) You were under the age required for marriage (males must be 18 and females must be 16), and you did not thereafter live with your spouse in a husband-wife relationship. This annulment action must be brought within two years after you attain the legal age for marriage. 2) Either you or your husband/wife was already legally married and the spouse from the other marriage is still alive. 3) Either you or your spouse had been declared incompetent, unless competency was later restored and you lived together afterward as husband and wife. 4) The marriage consent of either you or your spouse was obtained by fraud, unless, after learning all of the facts, you lived together as husband and wife.

"text": "Annulments (Declarations of Nullity)Related Topics: Declaration Of Nullity / Annulment, Divorce, Married Life, Overcoming Adversity, Remarriage What is an annulment? “ Annulment” is an unfortunate word that is sometimes used to refer to a Catholic “declaration of nullity.” Actually, nothing is made null through the process. Rather, a Church tribunal (a Catholic Church court) declares that a marriage thought to be valid according to Church law actually fell short of at least one of the essential elements required for a binding union. For a Catholic marriage to be valid, it is required that: (1) the spouses are free to marry; (2) they are capable of giving their consent to marry; (3) they freely exchange their consent; (4) in consenting to marry, they have the intention to marry for life, to be faithful to one another and be open to children; (5) they intend the good of each other; and (6) their consent is given in the presence of two witnesses and before a properly authorized Church minister. Exceptions to the last requirement must be approved by Church authority. Why does the Church require a divorced Catholic to obtain a declaration of nullity before marrying in the Church? In fidelity to Jesus’ teaching, the Church believes that marriage is a lifelong bond (see Matt 19:1-10); therefore, unless one’s spouse has died, the Church requires the divorced Catholic to obtain a declaration of nullity before marrying someone else. The tribunal process seeks to determine if something essential was missing at the moment of consent, that is, the time of the wedding. If so, the Church can declare that a valid marriage was never actually brought about on the wedding day."

"text": "Fully grasping the Church’s teaching about marriage is complicated business. Understanding Catholic annulments can be even more so. Add to this rich, but complex teaching, the pain of divorce and often continuing timidity about entering a second marriage and many Catholics simply opt out of Church weddings the second time around. Here we offer sixteen frequently asked questions about Catholic annulments and brief responses by pastor and canon law expert Fr. Kevin E. Mc Kenna to help take away some of the mystery.1. What is an annulment? An annulment, formally called “a declaration of nullity,” is an official declaration by the Roman Catholic Church that a marriage did not meet the requirements for validity. Validity means that the desired outcome (in this case, marriage) has actually taken place as recognized by the Church. Although to all outward appearances, a wedding was properly celebrated (the vows were recited before the priest in a Catholic church, etc. ), there is much more needed for the wedding to be understood as a sacred union."

Though not usually as complex as the dissolution of a long-term marriage, many of the elements and steps required are similar, if not the same. The end result, however, is quite different. Legally speaking, after an annulment, the parties were never married. Most annulments take place after a marriage of a very short duration -- a few weeks or months, so there are usually no assets or debts to divide, or children for whom custody, visitation and child support are a concern. When a long-term marriage is annulled, however, most states have provisions for dividing property and debts, as well as determining custody, visitation, child support and alimony. Children of an annulled marriage are not considered illegitimate. For some people, divorce carries a stigma, and they would rather their marriage be annulled. Others want an annulment because it may make it possible for them to remarry within their faith."

Let Us Help You Divorce and Legal Separation in Ohio Ohio Divorce Basics Dissolution: In Ohio, a Dissolution of Marriage is a form of no-fault termination of a marriage, where both parties have agreed upon all of the terms regarding division of property and debt, spousal support, as well as child support, custody, visitation and parental rights and responsibilities, if applicable. With a Dissolution, there is no Plaintiff or Defendant; it is not a Divorce; and the court does not have to make any of the decisions it normally makes in a contested divorce. It generally proceeds much more quickly than a divorce action. Divorce: A Divorce refers to the termination of a marriage by the judgment of a court, and may only be granted upon a finding of fault-based grounds. Residency Requirement: To file for divorce in Ohio, the Plaintiff, filing spouse, must have been a resident of the state at least six months before filing the Complaint. To file for dissolution of marriage, either of the spouses must have been a resident of the state for at least six months before filing the Petition. Filing: Divorce: The Plaintiff may file a Complaint for Divorce in a court of common pleas, including divisions of courts of domestic relations. If the residency of the Defendant, other spouse, is unknown, he/she is not a resident of Ohio, or is a resident but is absent from the state, the Plaintiff shall give notice of the divorce action by publication, as provided by the Rules of Civil Procedure. Dissolution: A Petition for Dissolution of Marriage should be signed by both spouses and shall have attached and incorporated a separation agreement agreed to by both spouses."

Validity of Marriages in the United States or Abroad Validity of Marriage for Immigration Purposes The applicant must establish validity of his or her marriage. In general, the legal validity of a marriage is determined by the law of the place where the marriage was celebrated (“place-of-celebration rule”). Under this rule, a marriage is valid for immigration purposes in cases where t he marriage is valid under the law of the jurisdiction in which it is performed. [ 1]In all cases, the burden is on the applicant to establish that he or she has a valid marriage with his or her U. S. citizen spouse for the required period of time. [ 2] In most cases, a marriage certificate is prima facie evidence that the marriage was properly and legally performed. USCIS does not recognize the following relationships as marriages, even if valid in the place of celebration:• Polygamous marriages; [3]• Certain marriages that violate the strong public policy of the state of residence of the couple; [4]• Civil unions, domestic partnerships, or other such relationships not recognized as marriages in the place of celebration; [5]• Relationships where one party is not present during the marriage ceremony (proxy marriages) unless the marriage has been consummated; [6] or• Relationships entered into for purposes of evading immigration laws of the United States. [ 7]Validity of Marriage Between Two Persons of the Same Sex In June 2013, the Supreme Court held that section 3 of the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), which had limited the terms “marriage” and “spouse” to opposite-sex marriages for purposes of all federal laws, was un constitutional. [ 8] In accordance with the Supreme Court decision, USCIS determine s the validity of a same-sex marriage by the place-of-celebration rule, just as USCIS applies this rule todetermine the validity of an opposite-sex marriage. [ 9]Therefore, i n cases of marriage between persons of the same sex, officer s will review the laws of thejurisdiction in which the marriage took place to determine if the jurisdiction recognizes same-sexmarriage s and the marriage otherwise is legally valid."

"text": "Home > News > Engineering Articles > Corrosion Assessment Of API 650 Tank Annular Plates | Carmagen Engineering Corrosion Assessment of API 650 Tank Annular Plates By Doug Stelling The annular plate-to-shell junction is one of the most critical areas in an API 650 Tank, and is one of the most difficult areas in which to assess corrosion. The annular plate typically rests on a crushed stone or concrete ring wall, and joins the highly stressed shell of the tank to the bottom plates. The bottom plates are for the most part supported by the tank pad or foundation, and are lowly stressed. While some may think that the annular plate is lowly stressed like the bottom plates, the annular plate-to-shell junction is actually subjected to high stresses. This is because the annular plate tends to restrain the radial growth of the tank shell due to both hydrostatic pressure loads and temperature. Since the annular plate rests on a somewhat rigid foundation, the rotation of the shell is restrained and the annular plate and junction weld is therefore subjected to high bending stresses. The rigidity of the foundation determines, for the most part, the restraint to rotation at the junction. Analysis of the annular plate-to-shell junction is also complicated by the effect of flexure of the plate due to the applied loads. These loads cause the plate to bear down on the foundation outside of the shell and lift off the foundation inboard of the shell. The analysis of the junction can also be complicated by differential settlement of the tank pad and ring wall, and differential settlement of the ring wall around the tank periphery."

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

Patient information: A handout on this topic is available at https://familydoctor.org/familydoctor/en/diseases-conditions/lichen-planus.html. Lichen planus is a chronic, inflammatory, autoimmune disease that affects the skin, oral mucosa, genital mucosa, scalp, and nails. Lichen planus lesions are described using the six P's (planar [flat-topped], purple, polygonal, pruritic, papules, plaques). Onset is usually acute, affecting the flexor surfaces of the wrists, forearms, and legs. The lesions are often covered by lacy, reticular, white lines known as Wickham striae. Classic cases of lichen planus may be diagnosed clinically, but a 4-mm punch biopsy is often helpful and is required for more atypical cases. High-potency topical corticosteroids are first-line therapy for all forms of lichen planus, including cutaneous, genital, and mucosal erosive lesions. In addition to clobetasol, topical tacrolimus appears to be an effective treatment for vulvovaginal lichen planus."

MIL-STD-275E and IPC class 3 calls for a minimum annular ring of 0.05mm (0.002\"\") edge of hole to edge of pad. MIL-STD-275E also calls out .005 inches for via to trace distance.

However, if you are a doctor or medical, chiropractic, or physical therapy student, you should definitely read through the entire page, which will give you a very thorough understanding of this common cause of patient morbidity and the available treatment options. Disc Herniation: the basics A disc herniation, which can also be called a protrusion, extrusion, prolapse, rupture, \"\"slipped disc,\"\" or \"\"bulge\"\", is a somtimes-painful condition of the spine that occurs when the material from the center of the disc (nucleus pulposus) escapes through a tear in the posterior portion of the disc (annulus fibrosus) and then \"\"focally\"\" pokes out, often compressing the adjacent lumbar nerve root in the process.

"text": "\"Home > News > Engineering Articles > Repair Of Tank Bottoms In Atmospheric Storage Tanks | Carmagen Engineering Repair of Tank Bottoms in Atmospheric Storage Tanks By Ray Chao Tank bottoms in atmospheric storage tanks (ASTs) are susceptible to both external and internal corrosion, and an earlier article discussed tank bottom inspection and evaluation. Repair of corroded tank bottoms in old ASTs is thus a common maintenance undertaking by tank owners. API Standard 653, Tank Inspection, Repair, Alteration and Reconstruction, provides guidance on the repair of tank bottoms in ASTs. The rules in API 653, however, contain certain restrictions on weld repairs and, in some cases, require that the shell penetrations be raised. This article will examine these requirements and discuss safe repair of tank bottoms without undue costs or prolonged tank downtime. Repairing a Portion of the Bottom API 653 restricts welding in the “critical zone” when making repairs to a portion of the tank bottom. The “critical zone” is defined as: within the annular plate ring, within 12 inches of the shell, or within 12 inches of the inside edge of the annular ring. No welding, welded-on patch plates, or weld overlays are permitted within the “critical zone” except for welding of widely scattered pits, cracks in the bottom plates, the shell-to-bottom weld, or where the bottom or annular plate is being replaced. If more extensive repairs are required, the bottom plate under the tank shell would have to be cut out and a new plate installed. The “critical zone” is supposed to be based on stress considerations."

The arrangement of lifting and related surfaces on a Fixed-wing aircraft (including both gliders and powered aeroplanes or airplanes ), is called its wing configuration. Aircraft designs are often classified by their wing configuration. For example the Supermarine Spitfire is a conventional low wing cantilever monoplane of straight elliptical planform with moderate aspect ratio and slight dihedral. Many variations have been tried. Sometimes the distinction between them is blurred, for example the wings of many modern combat aircraft may be described either as cropped compound deltas with (forwards or backwards) swept trailing edge, or as sharply tapered swept wings with large leading edge root extensions (or LERX). Some are therefore duplicated here under more than one heading. This is particularly so for variable geometry and combined (closed) wing types. Most of the configurations described here have flown (if only very briefly) on full-size aircraft. A few significant theoretical designs are also noted."

From just caudal to the larynx to its bifurcation, the equine trachea is about 70 to 80 cm (28 to 32 inches) long. When operating on the trachea, its relationship to other structures is important. The arrangement of the muscles around the trachea should be noted, as well as nerve trunks, vessels, and the esophagus. The sternothyrohyoid muscles are located immediately ventral to the trachea, except at the most cranial extremity of the trachea, where it is related only to the sternohyoid muscle. The sternocephalic, omohyoid, and sternothyroid muscles are found lateral to the trachea near the larynx. An easy spot to perform a tracheotomy is where the sternocephalic muscle bellies diverge and the omohyoid muscle converges. From this area cranial to the larynx, the trachea can be easily palpated. The esophagus is located dorsolaterally to the trachea in the middle of the neck but comes to lie lateral to it in the caudal part of the neck and assumes a position ventral to the trachea at the thoracic inlet."

[ 1]Pain can be related to different types of pain which come from muscles, bones, vertebral joints other than the intervertebral disc or other structures in the spine. A degenerated intervertebral disk can release nociceptive molecules and growth factors which result in nerve ingrowth into the disc. [ 2] (level:3A)Discogenic pain is pain arising from stimulation of pain sensitive afferents within the annulus fibrosus and is a separate condition from disc herniation with associated radiculopathy. [ 3] (level: 5)Detailed structure of the intervertebral disc (adapted from Bogduk 2005)Clinically relevant anatomy The intervertebral disc (IVD) is the principal joint between two vertebrae in the vertebral column. Each IVD is composed of three structures: 1. The nucleus pulposus (NP), a gelatinous inner part; 2. The annulus fibrosus (AF), an outer ring of fibrous tissue that encloses the nucleus pulposus; 3. Two endplates of hyaline cartilage.

The characteristic ring of fire.©i Stockphoto.com/peisen zhao Solar eclipses happen when the Moon casts a shadow on Earth. User images: Annular solar eclipse The Moon's shadow is not big enough to engulf the entire planet, so the shadow is always limited to a certain area (see map illustrations below). This area changes during the eclipse because the Moon and Earth are in constant motion: Earth continuously rotates around its axis while it orbits the Sun, and the Moon orbits Earth. Solar eclipses are only visible from within the area where the shadow falls, and the closer you are to the center of the shadow's path, the bigger the eclipse looks. Recorded stream of annular eclipse Feb, 2017Annular Means Ring-Shaped The name “annular” comes from the Latin word for ring, “annulus.” These eclipses are named for their darkest, or maximum, point even if it only lasts less than a second. If the characteristic ring of fire is visible from even just one location, the whole eclipse is called an annular solar eclipse. However, in most places and for most of the duration, an annular eclipse looks like a partial solar eclipse. This is also the case for total solar eclipses and for the rare hybrid solar eclipses which have an annular maximum point in some locations and a total maximum point in other locations."

definition of stenosis in cervical region< 13 mm AP diameter, or< 0.8 times the AP diameter of the adjacent vertebral body Central canal stenosis may be exaggerated by Hypertrophy of ligamentum flavum Hypertrophy and osteophyte formation of the facet joints Annular bulging of the disc Thickening of the lamina Lateral recess stenosis can result from Loss of disc height and over-riding facets Facet joint osteophyte formation Hypertrophy of ligamentum flavum / capsule of the joint Posterior annular bulge Extradural arachnoid cysts Perineural cysts Arrangements of nerve roots within the thecal sac The most posterior roots are always the 5 th sacral roots The other roots are added progressively toward anterior At the L5-S1 disc level, the most anterior nerve root is the S1 nerve root Motor fibres are antero-medial within the roots and the sensory fibres postero-lateral The dorsal root ganglion lies in the neuroforamen, with a small motor component anteriorly and a larger sensory component posteriorly Blood supply of the cauda equina The blood supply of the cauda equina and spinal nerve roots is from cephalad to caudad As the nerve root traverses the neuroforamen the blood supply is from caudad to cephalad Pathogenesis The commonest cause in the elderly (esp. females) is degenerative L4/L5 spondylolisthesis Pathoanatomy of disc degeneration The intervertebral discs are fibro-cartilaginous structures that separate vertebral bodies and provide shock absorbance within the intervertebral joint The annulus fibrosis is composed of 50% type I collagen and 50% type II collagen The nucleus pulposus is comprised exclusively of type II fibres With aging process the water content of the intervertebral discs decreases The proteoglycan content is replaced by collagen fibers The precise molecular mechanism that underlie this process is not known Dehydration of the nucleus pulposus decreases its ability to distribute stress and consequently Fissures and tears develop within the annulus The discs lose height Annular bulges develop Disc herniates These changes increase stresses on the facet joints, which causes Arthritic changes Osteophyte formation Sclerosis of the endplates Occasionally, instability Ligamentum flavum, which is normally elastic, hypertrophies and becomes more rigid Hypertrophic changes result in narrowing of the spinal canal and neuronal foramina Compress the cord and nerve roots The vasculature can also be compromised, resulting in ischemia Pathophysiology Compression Does not cause pain per se It will result in paraesthesias, sensory deficits, motor loss and reflex abnormalities Affects the afferent fibres first, while recovery is quickest in the efferent (motor) fibres Local neural inflammation Produces the pain Inflammation may be caused by stretching of the nerve In a normal person, the S1 nerve root may move as much as 5 mm within the neuroforamen upon straight leg raising Degeneration may prevent movement of the nerve and cause increased internal tension and disruptions of neural architecture Possibly, vascular steal or venous congestion / stasis is involved in pathophysiology Nutritional factors Ameliorating factors may decrease symptoms of spinal stenosis Proper hydration Eating fruits and vegetables Aggravating factors which have been proposed to induce inflammation and oxidative damage Smoking Alcohol Increases the risk of falling, which can aggravate symptoms of spinal stenosis Does not affect the risk of developing stenosis per se Caffeine Red meat Definitive data supporting these measures is currently lacking Natural History Epidemiology Incidence1.5 - 6% of population0.5% of Americans over 50 years old (250,000 - 500,000)Incidence is expected to increase as the population gets older M=FUsually over 50 years old Mean age for women is 73, slightly less for men Occurs earlier in achondroplastics (around 40)Does not seem to have a clear correlation with any specific race or body type Prognosis In absence of instability, the course of disease is fairly stable Severe debilitating neurological deterioration in patients who have been managed non-operatively is rare Complete resolution of symptoms is also rare If left untreated, the symptoms of unstable spinal stenosis become progressively worse Leg weakness can progress to complete loss of functionality and inability to ambulate Loss of sensation in the lower extremities can lead to increased propensity to fall, leading to increased fracture risk Eventually, loss of bowel and bladder function and loss of sexual function may occur Clinical Presentation History Symptoms usually do not develop until the seventh decade The early symptoms are often insidious in onset Vague complaints of low back pain and stiffness are often the initial symptoms Most commonly affects the 3 rd, 4 th and 5 th motion segments of the lumbar spine May have previous history of disc prolapse or chronic backache Sudden worsening suggests disc prolapse or other acute decrease in volume of the spinal canal Urinary dysfunction is uncommon Only in severe cases, as part of cauda equina syndrome Takes the form of urinary retention and subsequent overflow incontinence Associated with sexual dysfunction Back pain Aggravated by Standing Walking down hills Extension of the lumbar spine Men are often unable to stand up straight to shave Relieved by Sitting Squatting Lying down Walking up hills Flexing the spine The ability of positioning to exacerbate or relieve symptoms is highly specific for spinal stenosis (93%) and helps to differentiate it from peripheral vascular disease Radicular pain Found in 20%50% of patients have double root involvement30% have single root involvement15% have triple root involvement Pain characteristics Exertional aching, heaviness, numbness, burning ± paraesthesia Usually involves the entire lower leg, rather than only the thigh or the calf Unilateral (root canal stenosis) / asymmetric bilateral (spinal canal stenosis)May vary from side to side and from day to day Not present at rest More common in patients with severe foraminal and lateral recess stenosis Corresponds to the L5 nerve root in almost 90% of cases S1 root is involved in around 60% of cases Examination Loss of lumbar lordosis is typical May reveal neurological deficit, but frequently normal Most common neurological abnormality is weakness in the L5 distribution Straight leg test and other root tension signs are characteristically negative Stress neurological test : symptoms can be induced / worsened by getting the patient to walk first, until the pain is felt Symmetrical loss of knee and ankle jerks can be a normal part of aging, but asymmetrical loss of reflexes is significant Differential diagnosis Lumbar spondylosis Vascular claudication Pain is maximal in thighs rather than the calves Associated with paraesthesia and weakness after walking

Such a marriage is automatically null, although a declaration of nullity is required to establish this. The process of obtaining a declaration of nullity is similar to an annulment process. Despite its retroactive nature, children born before an annulment are considered legitimate in many countries. Reasons for a void marriage may include, depending on jurisdiction, consanguinity ( incestual marriage), bigamy, group marriage, child marriage. [ 4] [5]A voidable marriage is a marriage which can be canceled at the option of one of the parties."

"text": "Annulment An annulment is a legal procedure that dissolves a couple’s marriage, though it differs from a divorce in that it restores the couple’s status to how it was before the marriage occurred, as though it had never taken place. For some people, divorce is not allowed by their religion, or carries a stigma. Additionally, some people find it easier to remarry within their church if their previous marriage has been annulled, rather than having been divorced. To explore this concept, consider the following annulment definition. Definition of Annulment Noun A legal declaration that ends a marriage as though it never happened Origin Late 15 th century Middle French annulement Types of Annulment There are two primary types of annulment: civil and religious. A civil annulment dissolves a marriage legally, and is done through a state government after a court orders it. A religious annulment is granted through a church and simply dissolves the marriage in the eyes of the church, often taking place after a couple has been divorced through the legal system. Civil Annulment When a couple seeks a civil annulment, they must file the proper paperwork with the local court, asking the judge to grant an annulment. Civil annulments are typically available if the marriage had a very short duration, and if certain important factors are missing from the marriage. Other factors make an annulment impossible, requiring the couple to seek a traditional divorce."

A couple separates when one or both spouses decide that their relationship is over and then take steps to act on that decision. When an unmarried couple separates, their relationship is over. The relationship of married spouses, on the other hand, isn't legally over until they are divorced, one of them dies, or their marriage is annulled. This chapter begins by taking a quick look at separation and divorce, and talks about a few urban myths about separation and divorce."

"text": "Depending on where you live, if you marry before your divorce is final, you could conceivably go to jail. You have two spouses: the one you haven’t divorced yet and the one you just married. This is bigamy, and it is a crime in every state. Civil family laws treat the concept of bigamy somewhat differently; because your second marriage is illegal, it technically can't exist. You can still be prosecuted in criminal court, but you don’t have to divorce to end the marriage. You can annul it. Definition of Bigamy Legally, bigamy means being married to two spouses at the same time, both of whom are alive. They may or may not know about each other. If either of them is aware of the existence of your other spouse and doesn’t take steps to end the marriage, she is legally liable for bigamy also. Bigamy is different from polygamy, which generally involves multiple partners, all of whom know about each other and enter into the arrangement consensually."

Religious Annulment A legal annulment is not the same thing as a religious annulment. The government and the courts do not recognize a religious annulment. Therefore, even if you obtain an annulment in your church, you are still considered married under Canadian law. When can I get a Marriage Annulment? The circumstances where an annulment is available are quite limited in Canada:1. If you’ve married someone who was already married and you did not know that when you married, you can get an annulment.2. “ Shotgun” weddings can be annulled.3. If you don’t have the mental capacity to understand what a marriage is, you can get your marriage annulled.4. If you marry someone who is too closely related to you, e.g. your brother or sister, then you can get a marriage annulment.5."

Generally, a basket of United States treasury obligations is the only collateral “acceptable” for this type of substitution – although some securitized loan documents do allow for the use of agency securities that are less costly. A quick way to get an estimate of the cost of a defeasance is to use a defeasance cost calculator. The original note remains in place after a defeasance, but it is collateralized and serviced by the substituted securities instead of the real estate."

"text": "How Much Do Annulments Cost In The Philippines? April 15, 2015 News Share this!Share Tweet Email Written by imoney Annulment is a very sensitive topic, but unfortunately, it is the only option for Filipinos who feel trapped in a marriage. There is no divorce in the Philippines, making it the only country in the world without divorce laws in the books (unless you’re Muslim — and they comprise only 11% of the Philippine population). While six out of ten Filipinos are in favor of the legalization of divorce, trying to pass a divorce bill in Congress is still difficult. A divorce bill filed in May 2014, House Bill 4408 authored by Representatives Luz Ilagan and Emmi de Jesus, is still languishing in the House Committee on Population and Family Relations almost a year later. So for problematic marriages, the couple’s only recourse is annulment. The number of marriage annulment and nullity cases have been on the rise for years. According to the Office of the Solicitor General, in 2002, 5,250 couples sought marriage annulments or nullifications. In 2011, that number shot up to 9,133. And in 2012, a total of 10,528 cases were filed, or an average of 28 couples a day."

"text": "Marine Corrosion Explained Marine Corrosion Year upon year the cost of marine corrosion has increased until it is estimated today at 4 % of the Gross National Product. An enlightened approach to materials selection, protection and corrosion control is needed to reduce this burden of wasted materials, wasted energy and wasted money. These notes have been compiled by Members of the Marine Corrosion Forum to help marine designers, engineers, and equipment users, understand the causes of marine corrosion and the way in which protective systems and more resistant materials can be used to reduce or entirely eliminate sea water corrosion problems. Many different types of destructive attack can occur to structures, ships and other equipment used in sea water service. The term 'aqueous corrosion' describes the majority of the most troublesome problems encountered in contact with sea water, but atmospheric corrosion of metals exposed on or near coastlines, and hot salt corrosion in engines operating at sea or taking in salt-laden air are equally problematical and like aqueous corrosion require a systematic approach to eliminate or manage them. Corrosion by sea water Corrosion by sea water, aqueous corrosion, is an electrochemical process, and all metals and alloys when in contact with sea water have a specific electrical potential (or corrosion potential) at a specific level of sea water acidity or alkalinity - the p H. This typical diagram shows the regions where the metal will freely corrode; the region of passivation where stable oxide or other films form and the corrosion process is stifled; the region of pitting corrosion where the corrosion potential of the metal exceeds that of its oxide; and the region of immunity where the metal is normally fully safe to use. More resistant alloys mean less corrosion, metals like gold platinum and tantalum can resist virtually all corrosion, but for marine service the final choice will always be a compromise with cost. Most corrosion resistant metals rely on an oxide film to provide protection against corrosion. If the oxide is tightly adherent, stable and self healing, as on many stainless steels and titanium, then the metal will be highly resistant or immune to corrosion. If the film is loose, powdery, easily damaged and non self repairing, such as rust on steel, then corrosion will continue unchecked."

"text": "Tech Tesla Why Tesla's grid batteries will use two different chemistries Tesla Powerwall, a rechargeable lithium-ion battery designed to store energy at a residential level. Courtesy of Tesla Motors By Katie Fehrenbacher May 18, 2015Buried within Tesla Motors’ hour-and-fifteen-minute earnings call earlier this month was the nugget that the electric automaker (tsla, -5.28%) plans to use two different variations of lithium-ion batteries for its two different grid battery products. The news could easily be dismissed as just a bit of battery geekery, but there’s more to it than that. It suggests that Tesla is not just increasing how many types of batteries it uses in its products, but that it has the ability to produce both models at its planned battery “gigafactory.” The batteries could influence how the facility is designed. An unanticipated problem was encountered, check back soon and try again Error Code: MEDIA_ERR_UNKNOWNSession ID: 2018-04-05:69190ba95f6490349462ee4 Player ID: jumpstart_video_1OKBut before we understand how much this could affect Tesla’s factory, let’s take a step back to explain the nuts and bolts of battery making and why Tesla wants to do this. Lithium-ion battery basics Most traditional lithium-ion batteries that are found in devices like cell phones are made using a cathode that’s a mixture of lithium cobalt oxide. The structure of a battery is made up of two electrodes—a cathode (positive) and an anode (negative)—and a medium, called the electrolyte, through which the electric charge flows. Lithium ions move back and forth between the cathode and the anode when a lithium-ion battery charges and discharges. The cathode part of the battery is the place where traditionally the lithium-ion battery industry can tweak the energy and power density—or how much energy and power can be stored per volume. ("

An alloy is simply a mixture of metals melted together to form a new metal with characteristics distinct from those metals from which it is made. What is an Aluminum Alloy? An Aluminum alloy is an alloy primarily of pure aluminum, mixed with different alloying elements that give rise to an entire range of materials, each of which is designed to maximize a particular characteristic such as strength, ductility, formability, machinability, or electrical conductivity. Do the different alloys have a different color or aspect? No, they are aesthetically interchageable. Is it necessary to specify the alloy? Only if there is some physical characteristic of the alloy that will have some bearing on the success of the project (such as corrosion resistence) is it necessary to specify the actual alloy. Generally, the fabricator will purchase the material on the basis of shape or form, and it will arrive with the most commonly available and least expensive alloy present locally. If there is any question of the integrity of the material in any way, the designs must be approved by an engineer, but you will be able to accept substitutions of alloys with confidence that the resulting product will be aesthetically acceptable."

"text": "No solvent makes powder an excellent choice for the environment. Photo courtesy of Du Pont. Related Topics: Fundamentals Parts Cleaning Powder Coating Related Suppliers Powder Coating Institute Electrocoating is a process by which electrically charged particles are deposited out of a water suspension to coat a conductive part. During the electrocoat process, paint is applied to a part at a certain film thickness, which is regulated by the amount of voltage applied. The deposition is self-limiting and slows down as the applied coating electrically insulates the part. Electrocoat solids initially deposit in the areas closest to the counter electrode and, as these areas become insulated to current, solids are forced into more recessed bare metal areas to provide complete coverage. This phenomenon is known as throwpower and is a critical aspect of the electrocoat process. There are numerous benefits to electrocoating, including cost efficiencies, line productivity and environmental advantages. The cost efficiencies in electrocoat are higher transfer efficiency, precise film-build control, and low manpower requirements. Increased line productivity in electrocoat is due to faster line speeds, dense racking of parts, non-uniform line loading, and reduced human fatigue or error."

It is the gradual destruction of materials (usually metals) by chemical and/or electrochemical reaction with their environment. Corrosion engineering is the field dedicated to controlling and stopping corrosion. In the most common use of the word, this means electrochemical oxidation of metal in reaction with an oxidant such as oxygen or sulfur. Rusting, the formation of iron oxides, is a well-known example of electrochemical corrosion. This type of damage typically produces oxide (s) or salt (s) of the original metal, and results in a distinctive orange colouration. Corrosion can also occur in materials other than metals, such as ceramics or polymers, although in this context, the term \"\"degradation\"\" is more common. Corrosion degrades the useful properties of materials and structures including strength, appearance and permeability to liquids and gases. Many structural alloys corrode merely from exposure to moisture in air, but the process can be strongly affected by exposure to certain substances."

For example, lithium cobalt oxide, one of the most common Li-ions, has the chemical symbols Li Co O 2 and the abbreviation LCO. For reasons of simplicity, the short form Li-cobalt can also be used for this battery. Cobalt is the main active material that gives this battery character.

When connected in a circuit, a battery can produce electricity. Batteries convert Chemical Energy into Electrical Energy A battery has two ends -- a positive terminal (cathode) and a negative terminal (anode). If you connect the two terminals with wire, a circuit is formed. Electrons will flow through the wire and a current of electricity is produced. Inside the battery, a reaction between chemicals take place. But the reaction takes place only if there is a flow of electrons. Batteries can be stored for a long time and still work because the chemical process doesn't start until the electrons flow from the negative to the positive terminals through a circuit."

The types of corrosion that have been observed on titanium may be classified under the general headings: general corrosion, crevice corrosion, stress corrosion cracking, anodic breakdown pitting, hydriding and galvanic corrosion. In any contemplated application of titanium, its susceptibility to corrosion by any of these modes should be considered. In order to understand the advantages and limitations of titanium, each of these types of corrosion will be explained with reference to commercially pure and near commercially pure grade of titanium (table 1).

What is positve and what is the negative terminal? It would be great to simply say that the anode is negative and the cathode is positive, however, that is not always the case. Somtimes the opposite is true depending on battery technology. In between the battery’s two electrodes runs an electrical current caused primarily from a voltage differential between the anode and cathode.

This means that the anode electrode is a supplier of electrons. However the electron flow reverses between charge and discharge activities. As a result, the positive electrode is the anode during charging and the negative electrode is the anode during discharging. In order to prevent confusion, the anode is normally defined for its activity during the discharge cycle. In this way the term anode is used for the negative electrode in a cell or battery.

"text": "Commodities Metal Commodities Learn About Corrosion Prevention for Metals Share Flip Pin Email•••By Terence Bell Updated October 16, 2017In virtually all situations, metal corrosion can be managed, slowed, or even stopped by using the proper techniques. Corrosion prevention can take a number of forms depending on the circumstances of the metal being corroded. Corrosion prevention techniques can be generally classified into 6 groups: Environmental Modifications Metal Selection and Surface Conditions Cathodic Protection Corrosion Inhibitors Coating Plating Environmental Modification Corrosion is caused by chemical interactions between metal and gasses in the surrounding environment. By removing the metal from, or changing, the type of environment, metal deterioration can be immediately reduced. This may be as simple as limiting contact with rain or seawater by storing metal materials indoors or could be in the form of direct manipulation of the environmental affecting the metal. Methods to reduce the sulfur, chloride or oxygen content in the surrounding environment can limit the speed of metal corrosion. For example, feed water for water boilers can be treated with softeners or other chemical media to adjust the hardness, alkalinity or oxygen content in order to reduce corrosion on the interior of the unit. Metal Selection and Surface Conditions No metal is immune to corrosion in all environments, but through monitoring and understanding the environmental conditions that are the cause of corrosion, changes to the type of metal being used can also lead to significant reductions in corrosion. Metal corrosion resistance data can be used in combination with information on the environmental conditions to make decisions regarding the suitability of each metal. The development of new alloys, designed to protect against corrosion in specific environments, is constantly under production."

Kenneth Buckle, a visiting scientist at the Center for Integrated Manufacturing Studies at the Rochester Institute of Technology, provides this explanation. This question, which appears simple and direct, is actually filled with subtlety and complication. First, the definition of a battery must be established. There are a variety of chemical and mechanical devices that are called batteries, although they operate on different physical principles. A battery for the purposes of this explanation will be a device that can store energy in a chemical form and convert that stored chemical energy into electrical energy when needed. These are the most common batteries, the ones with the familiar cylindrical shape. There are no batteries that actually store electrical energy; all batteries store energy in some other form. Even within this restrictive definition, there are many possible chemical combinations that can store electrical energy--a list too long to go into in this short explanation. There are two fundamental types of chemical storage batteries: the rechargeable, or secondary cell, and the non-rechargeable, or primary cell."

An electrolyte is a substance that produces an electrically conducting solution when dissolved in a polar solvent, such as water. The dissolved electrolyte separates into cations and anions, which disperse uniformly through the solvent. Electrically, such a solution is neutral. If an electric potential is applied to such a solution, the cations of the solution are drawn to the electrode that has an abundance of electrons, while the anions are drawn to the electrode that has a deficit of electrons. The movement of anions and cations in opposite directions within the solution amounts to a current. This includes most soluble salts, acids, and bases. Some gases, such as hydrogen chloride, under conditions of high temperature or low pressure can also function as electrolytes. Electrolyte solutions can also result from the dissolution of some biological (e.g., DNA, polypeptides) and synthetic polymers (e.g., polystyrene sulfonate ), termed \"\" polyelectrolytes \"\", which contain charged functional groups.

( November 2016) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)A 900 MHz NMR instrument with a 21.1 T magnet at HWB-NMR, Birmingham, UKNuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, most commonly known as NMR spectroscopy or magnetic resonance spectroscopy ( MRS ), is a spectroscopic technique to observe local magnetic fields around atomic nuclei. The sample is placed in a magnetic field and the NMR signal is produced by excitation of the nuclei sample with radio waves into nuclear magnetic resonance, which is detected with sensitive radio receivers. The intramolecular magnetic field around an atom in a molecule changes the resonance frequency, thus giving access to details of the electronic structure of a molecule and its individual functional groups. As the fields are unique or highly characteristic to individual compounds, in modern organic chemistry practice, NMR spectroscopy is the definitive method to identify monomolecular organic compounds. Similarly, biochemists use NMR to identify proteins and other complex molecules. Besides identification, NMR spectroscopy provides detailed information about the structure, dynamics, reaction state, and chemical environment of molecules. The most common types of NMR are proton and carbon-13 NMR spectroscopy, but it is applicable to any kind of sample that contains nuclei possessing spin. NMR spectra are unique, well-resolved, analytically tractable and often highly predictable for small molecules."

It must be able to transmit that information faithfully, with an extremely low error rate, to the protein synthesis system, to both daughter cells upon cell division, and to a future generation upon reproduction of the organism. Prior to the discovery of the structure of DNA, there was much speculation regarding possible molecules which might meet these requirements. Proteins themselves were seriously considered as candidates, since they are stable, they can be large enough to hold a large amount of information, and they are certainly intimately involved in biology.

[ 1] All monosaccharides are reducing sugars, along with some disaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides. The monosaccharides can be divided into two groups: the aldoses, which have an aldehyde group, and the ketoses, which have a ketone group. Ketoses must first tautomerize to aldoses before they can act as reducing sugars. The common dietary monosaccharides galactose, glucose and fructose are all reducing sugars. Disaccharides are formed from two monosaccharides and can be classified as either reducing or nonreducing. Nonreducing disaccharides like sucrose and trehalose have glycosidic bonds between their anomeric carbons and thus cannot convert to an open-chain form with an aldehyde group; they are stuck in the cyclic form. Reducing disaccharides like lactose and maltose have only one of their two anomeric carbons involved in the glycosidic bond, meaning that they can convert to an open-chain form with an aldehyde group. The aldehyde functional group allows the sugar to act as a reducing agent, for example in the Tollens' test or Benedict's test. The cyclic hemiacetal forms of aldoses can open to reveal an aldehyde and certain ketoses can undergo tautomerization to become aldoses."

Following this definition, some chemists considered formaldehyde CH 2 O to be the simplest carbohydrate, while others claimed that title for glycolaldehyde. Today the term is generally understood in the biochemistry sense, which excludes compounds with only one or two carbons. Natural saccharides are generally built of simple carbohydrates called monosaccharides with general formula (CH 2 O) n where n is three or more. A typical monosaccharide has the structure H- (CHOH) x (C=O)- (CHOH) y -H, that is, an aldehyde or ketone with many hydroxyl groups added, usually one on each carbon atom that is not part of the aldehyde or ketone functional group. Examples of monosaccharides are glucose, fructose, and glyceraldehyde. However, some biological substances commonly called \"\"monosaccharides\"\" do not conform to this formula (e.g., uronic acids and deoxy-sugars such as fucose ), and there are many chemicals that do conform to this formula but are not considered to be monosaccharides (e.g., formaldehyde CH 2 O and inositol (CH 2 O) 6 ). The open-chain form of a monosaccharide often coexists with a heterocyclic compound|closed ring form where the aldehyde / ketone carbonyl group carbon (C=O) and hydroxyl group (-OH) react forming a hemiacetal with a new C-O-C bridge. Monosaccharides can be linked together into what are called polysaccharides (or oligosaccharides) in a large variety of ways. Many carbohydrates contain one or more modified monosaccharide units that have had one or more groups replaced or removed. For example, deoxyribose, a component of DNA, is a modified version of ribose; chitin is composed of repeating units of N-acetylglucosamine, a nitrogen-containing form of glucose. ["

Simple monosaccharides may be named generically according on the number of carbon atoms n: trioses, tetroses, pentoses, hexoses, etc. Every simple monosaccharide has an acyclic (open chain) form, which can be written as H- (CH (OH)) x - (C=O)- (CH (OH)) y -H; that is, a straight chain of carbon atoms, one of which is a carbonyl group, all the others bearing a hydrogen -H and a hydroxyl -OH each, with one extra hydrogen at either end. The carbons of the chain are conventionally numbered from 1 to n, starting from the end which is closest to the carbonyl. If the carbonyl is at the very beginning of the chain (carbon 1), the monosaccharide is said to be an aldose, otherwise it is a ketose. These names can be combined with the chain length prefix, as in aldohexose or ketopentose. Most ketoses found in nature have the carbonyl in position 2; when that is not the case, one uses a numeric prefix to indicate the carbonyl's position. Thus for example, aldohexose means H (C=O) (CHOH) 5 H, ketopentose means H (CHOH) (C=O) (CHOH) 3 H, and 3-ketopentose means H (CHOH) 2 (C=O) (CHOH) 2 H. An alternative nomenclature uses the suffix '-ose' only for aldoses, and '-ulose' for ketoses. The position of the carbonyl (when it is not 1 or 2) is indicated by a numerical infix."

Carbohydrates are an essential component of our diet and an important source of energy for us. Most of the things generally included in our diet have a large ratio of carbohydrates present. Also the patients suffering from Diabetes excrete huge amounts of sugar in their urine which needs to be estimated. The purity of carbohydrates can also be checked by methods which can qualitatively estimate particular sugars. Hence the need for carbohydrate estimation arose. We have been estimating carbohydrates qualitatively since school time but it was just confined to observing a colour change or a coloured precipitate to detect the presence of a carbohydrate. None of us ever thought that these qualitative tests are highly sensitive and provide much more information than just detecting the presence of a sugar."

Glucose circulates in the blood of animals as blood sugar. It is made during photosynthesis from water and carbon dioxide, using energy from sunlight. It is the most important source of energy for cellular respiration. Glucose is stored as a polymer, in plants as starch and in animals as glycogen. With six carbon atoms, it is classed as a hexose, a subcategory of the monosaccharides. D -Glucose is one of the sixteen aldohexose stereoisomers."

"text": "\"Sucrose (common name: table sugar, also called saccharose) is a disaccharide (glucose + fructose) with the molecular formula C 12 H 22 O 11. Its systematic name is α-D-glucopyranosyl- (1→2)-β-D-fructofuranose. It is best known for its role in human nutrition and is formed by plants but not by higher animals. Physical and chemical properties Pure sucrose is most often prepared as a fine, colorless, odorless crystalline powder with a pleasing, sweet taste. Large crystals are sometimes precipitated from water solutions of sucrose onto a string (or other nucleation surface) to form rock candy, a confection. Like other carbohydrates, sucrose has a hydrogen to oxygen ratio of 2:1. It consists of two monosaccharides, α-glucose and fructose, joined by a glycosidic bond between carbon atom 1 of the glucose unit and carbon atom 2 of the fructose unit. What is notable about sucrose is that unlike most polysaccharides, the glycosidic bond is formed between the reducing ends of both glucose and fructose, and not between the reducing end of one and the nonreducing end of the other. The effect of this inhibits further bonding to other saccharide units. Since it contains no free anomeric carbon atom, it is classified as a nonreducing sugar."

"text": "Sucrose Sucrose is made from glucose and fructose units: Sucrose or table sugar is obtained from sugar cane or sugar beets. The glucose and fructose units are joined by an acetal oxygen bridge in the alpha-1 on the glucose and beta-2 on the fructose orientation. The structure is easy to recognize because it contains the six member ring of glucose and the five member ring of fructose. To recognize glucose look for the horizontal projection of the -OH on carbon # 4. See details on the galactose page towards the bottom. The alpha-1, beta-2 acetal is really part of a double acetal, since the two monosaccharides are joined at the hemiacetal (alpha-1) of glucose and the hemiketal (beta-2) of the fructose. There are no hemiacetals remaining in the sucrose and therefore sucrose is a non-reducing sugar. Sugar and Tooth Decay Sugar Processing: Sugar or more specifically sucrose is a carbohydrate that occurs naturally in every fruit and vegetable. It is the major product of photosynthesis, the process by which plants transform the sun's energy into food. Sugar occurs in greatest quantities in sugar cane and sugar beets from which it is separated for commercial use."

"text": "\"Question by anthonywalmsley (1)How much does a full sleeve tattoo cost?+ 11vote up Answer by rachie (38)Tattoo artists charge about $100 an hour, and sleeves take roughly 20 hours, so probably about $2000 dollars, probably split into 4 hour sessions. Of course, this also depends on how complicated your planned tattoo is- a lot of places will do free consultations with you in advance to help you get a better idea.add a comment+ 9vote up Answer by Anonymous If you want the work to be done by a skilled tattoo artist, it will cost you thousands. Most likely between $4-5K. If you don't care about the quality of the artwork, then you will pay about half that, maybe less. Tattoos are for life, pay up!add a comment+ 8vote up Answer by Anonymousi paid 12 soups and 4 cartons of smokes i got mine done in the fedsadd a comment Reply by Sommiedad (7) : That kicks a** , a good story like the one I posted done lower about bailing my artist out for 200 bucks to get my full sleeve done. Good story bro! add a comment+ 8vote up Answer by Anonymous I was just quoted $200hr at 40-50hrs worth of work for a full sleeve.

You've said yourself \"\"The artist is one of the most talented...\"\" 20 hours on a full sleeve is really weak of an estimate. I think 25-35 hours is more realistic."

Meme Status Confirmed Type: Slang Year1998Origin Internet Slang Tagsinternet, slang, dictionary, butt, term, butt hurt Additional References Encyclopedia Dramatica Urban Dictionary Wikipedia About Butthurt is an online slang term used to describe a strongly negative or overemotional response. It is used to draw attention to a person who shows signs of being irritated due to a perceived insult, an unfavorable situation, or a lack of decent communication. On occasions, it can be also used to describe unreasonable users behaviors without an apparent explanation. Origin The term “butthurt” originates from spanking [1], the act of striking the buttocks of another person, which is often seen as a method of punishing a child. Though some cultures view this as an acceptable form of discipline, it can be interpreted as abusive corporal punishment. Online, one of the earliest archived mentions of “butthurt” appeared in a 1998 comment [8] posted on the website of Swiss surrealist painter H. R. Giger. [ 9]“Hollywood has tossed Giger for more talented artists, and even those artist who can emulate his style, without the tears and the hurt butts."

What readers of Dr. Seuss likely wouldn't know is this: in January 1941 after establishing himself as a cartoonist, Geisel began penning one-panel, political cartoons for a newspaper in New York called PM and did so until January 1943. Browsing the online archive at UC San Diego, it's clear that he was concerned about Germany's aggressive military actions in Europe, his countrymen's isolationist leanings, and after the Pearl Harbor attack, his country's continued internal bickering about the best way to fight the war. Several cartoons are illustrative of these tensions. First, a cartoon dated June 23, 1941 shows a typical Dr. Seuss bird (fat belly with a long neck), wearing an Uncle Sam hat relaxing with feet up and a drink on a side table, as the world is being shot up and shelled on all sides. One bullet even rips through the bird's tall hat and another through the \"\"home sweet home\"\" sign next to the chair. The caption reads:\"\"Said a bird in the midst of a Blitz, 'Up to now they've scored very few hitz, So I'll sit on my canny Old Star Spangled Fanny...' And on it he sitz and he sitz. \"\" Geisel knew that the war would eventually come to the US, despite his government's perceived reluctance to act or the efforts of isolationist groups. The group America First (a group that espoused complete neutrality from the European war, including withholding aid—money and materiel) and Charles Lindberg (the famous pilot) were his frequent targets. A cartoon dated September 18, 1941 shows Lindberg atop a garbage truck labeled \"\"Nazi Anti-Semite Stink Wagon\"\", clad in a gas mask and shoveling garbage into the street with a caption that reads \"\"Spreading the Lovely Goebbels Stuff,\"\" a reference to Nazi Propaganda Minister and a not so subtle dig at his patriotism."

Stephen Doherty Many watercolorists avoid using Chinese white or zinc white gouache with their transparent watercolors because they think they might appear to be lazy or breaking rules. But there are just as many artists who like expanding their range of creative options by changing the physical appearance of their paints with the addition of opaque white paints. For example, Burton Silverman wrote an entire book— Breaking the Rules of Watercolor (Watson-Guptill Publications, New York, New York)—exploring the benefits of adding body color, gouache, or zinc white to watercolors and applying the mixtures to hot-pressed board. Pots 2002, watercolor and zinc white gouache, 39 x 30. Collection the artist. John Bowen's award-winning paintings certainly demonstrate the options available to an artist who uses a combination of opaque and transparent paints. \"\" Sometimes I paint with just transparent colors, but most of the time I see a distinct advantage to mixing zinc white gouache with the colors to create certain visual effects,\"\" he explains. \"\" This allows me to paint light values over dark, adding strong textural effects that can't be created with just transparent colors. \"\" For example, I can create appropriate textures by scratching the watercolor paper with sandpaper, an X-acto knife, or a single-edge razor blade and then painting over those rough areas with a mixture of zinc white and watercolor paint,\"\" Bowen explains. \"\" I might also apply the combination of paints with a Q-tip, spatter it from the tip of a toothbrush, or drop table salt into the wet paint."

It is believed that during the Shang and early Zhou periods the production of ritual bronze s was exclusively regulated under the authority of the court, which could grant or withhold authorization for production by regional workshops among the various states or others who paid fealty to the court. Under the careful regulation of court patrons in the Shang and Zhou periods, design features were shared among specialists working in the various media and were remarkably uniform from bronzes to lacquerwares to textiles. During the Warring States period and the Han dynasty (206 bce –220 ce ), the growth of a landowning and merchant class brought new patrons."

"text": "\"Entertainment & Music Music Where did rock and roll come from? Who put it out there and who was the first to think of it. Follow 11 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Rock and roll emerged as a defined musical style in America in the 1950s, though elements of rock and roll can be seen in rhythm and blues records as far back as the 1920s. Early rock and roll combined elements of blues, boogie woogie, jazz and rhythm and blues, and is also influenced by traditional folk music, gospel music, black and white, and country and western. Going back even further, rock and roll can trace a foundational lineage to the old Five Points district of mid-19th century New York City, the scene of the first fusion of heavily rhythmic African shuffles and sand dances with melody driven European genres, particularly the Irish jig [citation needed]. Origins of the name rock and roll Rocking was a term first used by gospel singers in the American South to mean something akin to spiritual rapture. A double, ironic, meaning came to popular awareness in 1947 in blues artist Roy Brown's song \"\"Good Rocking Tonight\"\" (also covered the next year by Wynonie Harris in an even wilder version), in which \"\"rocking\"\" was ostensibly about dancing but was in fact a thinly-veiled allusion to sex. Such double-entendres were nothing new in blues music (which was mostly limited in exposure to jukeboxes and clubs) but were new to the radio airwaves. After the success of \"\"Good Rocking Tonight\"\" many other rhythm and blues artists used similar titles through the late 1940s including a song called \"\"Rock and Roll\"\" recorded by Wild Bill Moore in 1949. These songs were relegated to \"\"race music\"\" (the music industry code name for rhythm and blues) outlets and were barely known by mainstream white audiences. In 1951, Cleveland, Ohio disc jockey Alan Freed would begin playing this type of music for his white audience, and it is Freed who is credited with coining the phrase \"\"rock and roll\"\" to describe the rollicking R&B music that he brought to the airwaves."

( Pixelbully / Alamy)By Will Ellsworth-Jones Smithsonian Magazine | Subscribe February 2013When Time magazine selected the British artist Banksy—graffiti master, painter, activist, filmmaker and all-purpose provocateur —for its list of the world’s 100 most influential people in 2010, he found himself in the company of Barack Obama, Steve Jobs and Lady Gaga. He supplied a picture of himself with a paper bag (recyclable, naturally) over his head. Most of his fans don’t really want to know who he is (and have loudly protested Fleet Street attempts to unmask him). But they do want to follow his upward trajectory from the outlaw spraying—or, as the argot has it, “bombing”—walls in Bristol, England, during the 1990s to the artist whose work commands hundreds of thousands of dollars in the auction houses of Britain and America. Today, he has bombed cities from Vienna to San Francisco, Barcelona to Paris and Detroit. And he has moved from graffiti on gritty urban walls to paint on canvas, conceptual sculpture and even film, with the guileful documentary Exit Through the Gift Shop, which was nominated for an Academy Award. Pest Control, the tongue-in-cheek-titled organization set up by the artist to authenticate the real Banksy artwork, also protects him from prying outsiders. Hiding behind a paper bag, or, more commonly, e-mail, Banksy relentlessly controls his own narrative. His last face-to-face interview took place in 2003."

Photograph: Tim Ireland/PAHis identity remained a mystery for eight years despite his star billing on one of the BBC's biggest shows. But today the Stig, the anonymous Top Gear driver disguised beneath a white crash helmet and blacked-out visor, was finally unmasked by a high court judge. Mr Justice Morgan threw out a request from BBC's lawyers to grant an injunction preventing publication of an autobiography by Ben Collins, the racing driver who has played the character since 2003, following nearly two days of legal arguments heard behind closed doors. Shortly before the ruling Collins, 35, strode down the steps of the Royal Courts of Justice in London but refused to confirm to waiting reporters that he is the man who trains celebrity guests to race around the Top Gear track. The court proceedings, and the media interest that surrounded it, has bordered on farcical at times, not least because the Stig's identity had already been revealed. Collins, from Bristol, was named as the Stig by the Sunday Times in August, and photos of the driver have subsequently appeared in the press. The BBC has repeatedly refused to confirm that Collins plays the character, however, as it seeks to protect the commercial value of one of its hit shows. Simon Dowson-Collins, director of legal services at Harper Collins, which would publish the book, also refused to discuss the Stig's alter ego, but criticised the BBC . \"\" We were very surprised the BBC took such action to prevent freedom of expression."

The algorithm was much more speedy when using a lambda than a proper function! The compiler is Visual C++ 2013. – sergiol Feb 12 '17 at 20:03add a comment8 Answers active oldest votesup vote1147down voteaccepted The problem C++ includes useful generic functions like std::for_each and std::transform, which can be very handy. Unfortunately they can also be quite cumbersome to use, particularly if the functor you would like to apply is unique to the particular function.#include <algorithm>#include <vector>namespace {struct f {void operator () ( int) {// do something}};}void func ( std :: vector <int> & v) {f f;std :: for_each ( v. begin (), v. end (), f );}If you only use f once and in that specific place it seems overkill to be writing a whole class just to do something trivial and one off."

They constitute about half a percent of the leucocytes. They have the kidney shaped nucleus and have agranular basophilic cytoplasm. \"\" Monocytes share the \"\"vacuum cleaner\"\" (phagocytosis) function of neutrophils, but are much longer lived as they have an additional role: they present pieces of pathogens to T cells so that the pathogens may be recognized again and killed, or so that an antibody response may be mounted. Monocytes eventually leave the bloodstream to become tissue macrophages which remove dead cell debris as well as attacking microrganisms. Neither of these can be dealt with effectively by the neutrophils.

Of course, they were all produced by cell division. But once formed, most of them differentiate, that is, become specialized, and carry on some specific function in the body. Then they eventually die. There are some stem cells in every organ, whose function is to divide, producing cells that differentiate to replace the expired ones.

It aims to be an evolution of the ideas behind Bitcoin. [ 1] [ unreliable source] [2]The main difference between the two technologies is that Bitcoin (and most digital currencies) is less opaque than Crypto Note-based currencies due to the latter's blockchain being almost anonymous, contrary to non-Cryptonote blockchains. [ 3] [4] Crypto Note currencies use a distributed public ledger that records all balances and transactions of its in-built currency like Bitcoin. Unlike Bitcoin, Crypto Note's transactions cannot be followed through the blockchain in a way that reveals who sent or received coins. The approximate amount of a transaction can be known, but the origin, destination, or actual amount cannot be learned. The only information available is that the actual amount was lower than the displayed amount. The only people with access to the whole set of data about a transaction are the sender or receiver of the transaction and the person who possesses one or both secret keys. Another significant difference is Crypto Note's hash -based proof-of-work algorithm. Bitcoin uses SHA-256, which is a CPU-bound function."

An account of biscuit stamping, communion wafers, and whether the Oreo's success hinges on its links to the Freemasons Over at The New York Times Magazine's enjoyable 6th Floor blog, Hilary Greenbaum asks \"\"Who made that Oreo emboss? \"\" Oreo manhole cover, by Andrew Lewicki, an L. A.-based artist whose work also includes crates of Southern California concrete oranges and a combination ashtray/juicer, for the perfect Parisian breakfast. Interestingly, when the Oreo was first introduced by Nabisco in 1912, it used a much more organic wreath for its emboss, later augmented with two pairs of turtledoves in a 1924 redesign. The contemporary Oreo stamp was introduced in 1952, and it has remained unchanged, and, in the words of Pulitzer Prize-winning architecture critic Paul Goldberger, \"\"the stuff of legend,\"\" ever since. Writing in 1986, to mark the cookie's 75th birthday , Goldberger declared that the Oreo \"\"stands as the archetype of its kind, a reminder that cookies are designed as consciously as buildings, and sometimes better.\"\" Comparing the Oreo to its less successful competitor, the Hydrox, Goldberger notes: Still, it is the Oreo that has become the icon. And after all, it is the more American-looking of the two -- its even pattern, however dowdy, has an industrial, stamped-out quality."

"text": "\"Has anyone here ever heard of the Sinclair Method for handling Alcoholism before? I had not ever heard of it before yesterday, and might not have ever heard of it either, but for the podcast musings of Dr. David Van Nuys, the host of Shrink Rap Radio, who recently interviewed Dr. David Sinclair, an American psychologist and alcohol researcher at his home in Finland. Apparently, Dr. Sinclair has worked out of Finland for the last several decades. When you're a researcher you have to do things like move to Finland sometimes; you basically have to go where people are willing to give you money to get your research done. Anyway, this is not an essay about Finland; it is, rather, an essay about the Sinclair Method, which is a radical rethinking of traditional treatments for alcoholism. Now, my knowledge of Sinclair's method is limited to what I have learned in Dr. Dave's podcast; I have no direct knowledge of whether or not this treatment actually works. Readers and listeners who get interested in this method and want to try it out need to keep the old saying in mind, \"\"Let the Buyer Beware\"\". Keeping this in mind, however, everything I heard Dr. Sinclair say in that podcast makes sense in the context of the other psychology knowledge I have, so I think this is all worth describing. Sinclair's treatment method can be quickly summarized. Take an alcoholic patient and prescribe him or her some short-acting opioid antagonist medicine (probably in pill form) that he or she can take before drinking."

Digital cash is intended to be implemented data which can be copied, stored, or given as payment (for example, attached to an email message, or via a USB stick, bluetooth, etc). Just like paper currency and coins, digital cash is intended to represent value because it is backed by a trusted third party (namely, the government and the banking industry). Most money is already paid in electronic form; for example, by credit or debit card, and by direct transfer between accounts, or by on-line services such as Pay Pal. This kind of electronic money is not digital cash, because it doesn't have the properties of cash (namely, anonymous and off-line transferability between holders). How does Digital Cash work? The figure shows the basic operation. User A obtains digital cash \"\"coins\"\" from her bank (and the bank deducts a corresponding amount from her account).

"text": "Anonymous Functions What Are Anonymous Functions? An anonymous function is a function that is not stored in a program file, but is associated with a variable whose data type is function_handle. Anonymous functions can accept inputs and return outputs, just as standard functions do. However, they can contain only a single executable statement. For example, create a handle to an anonymous function that finds the square of a number:sqr = @ (x) x.^2;Variable sqr is a function handle. The @ operator creates the handle, and the parentheses () immediately after the @ operator include the function input arguments. This anonymous function accepts a single input x , and implicitly returns a single output, an array the same size as x that contains the squared values. Find the square of a particular value ( 5 ) by passing the value to the function handle, just as you would pass an input argument to a standard function.a = sqr (5)a = 25Many MATLAB ® functions accept function handles as inputs so that you can evaluate functions over a range of values. You can create handles either for anonymous functions or for functions in program files. The benefit of using anonymous functions is that you do not have to edit and maintain a file for a function that requires only a brief definition."

The amino group is removed from the amino acid and converted to ammonia. The rest of the amino acid is made up of mostly carbon and hydrogen, and is recycled or oxidized for energy. Ammonia is toxic to the human system, and enzymes convert it to urea or uric acid by addition of carbon dioxide molecules in the urea cycle, which also takes place in the liver."

"text": "\"VISION AND OPTIC REFLEXESThe eyes are truly remarkable organs. Their light-sensitive retinas are able to convert light rays from objects in the visual field to impulses on the optic nerves, which ultimately give rise to images in the visual cortex of the brain. These images are usually sharp and clear because of the focusing power of the lens. As if the ability to perceive images isn't enough, the eyes are also able to function under widely varying conditions. For example, they are able to adjust to viewing near and far objects, large and small objects, moving and stationary objects as well as objects in bright daylight and under the poor light conditions of night vision. A number of optic reflexes enable the eyes to make these adjustments. THE EYE AND THE PATH OF LIGHTLight from an object in the visual field must pass through the cornea, the aqueous humor, the pupillary aperture, the lens, and the vitreous humor before reaching the light-sensitive retina (Fig-1). When we look directly at an object, the light rays from that object are focused on an especially sensitive area of the retina, the fovea. Items in the peripheral visual field are focused on the remainder of the retina. Both kinds of photoreceptors (rods and cones) are located throughout the peripheral retina, while the fovea contains only cones."

[ 2]The cause of amblyopia can be any condition that interferes with focusing during early childhood. [ 2] [6] This can occur from poor alignment of the eyes, an eye being irregularly shaped such that focusing is difficult, one eye being more nearsighted or farsighted than the other, or clouding of the lens of an eye. [ 2] After the underlying cause is fixed, vision is not restored right away, as the mechanism also involves the brain. [ 6] [7] Amblyopia can be difficult to detect, so vision testing is recommended for all children around the ages of four to five. [ 1]Early detection improves treatment success.

[ 6]The parasite worm is spread by the bites of a black fly of the Simulium type. [ 1] Usually, many bites are required before infection occurs. [ 7] These flies live near rivers, hence the common name of the disease. [ 6] Once inside a person, the worms create larvae that make their way out to the skin, [1] where they can infect the next black fly that bites the person. [ 1] There are a number of ways to make the diagnosis, including: placing a biopsy of the skin in normal saline and watching for the larva to come out, looking in the eye for larvae, and looking within the bumps under the skin for adult worms. [ 8]A vaccine against the disease does not exist. [ 1] Prevention is by avoiding being bitten by flies. ["

"text": "\"amblyopia Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia . Amblyopia Definition Amblyopia is an uncorrectable decrease in vision in one or both eyes with no apparent structuralabnormality seen to explain it. It is a diagnosis of exclusion, meaning that when a decrease in vision is detected, other causes must be ruled out. Once no other cause is found, amblyopia is the diagnosis. Generally, a difference of two lines or more (on an eye-chart test of visual acuity)between the two eyes or a best corrected vision of 20/30 or worse would be defined as amblyopia. For example, if someone has 20/20 vision with the right eye and only 20/40 with theleft, and the left eye cannot achieve better vision with corrective lenses, the left eye is said to be amblyopic. Description Lazy eye is a common non-medical term used to describe amblyopia because the eye withpoorer vision doesn't seem to be doing its job of seeing. Amblyopia is the most common cause of impaired vision in children, affecting nearly three out of every 100 people or 2-4% of thepopulation. Vision is a combination of the clarity of the images of the eyes (visual acuity) and theprocessing of those images by the brain. If the images produced by the two eyes aresubstantially different, the brain may not be able to fuse the images."

Despite its frequency, it often remains unrecognized until the patient develops sequelae, such as anorectal disorders or diverticular disease. ( See the image below. ) Large amount of stool throughout colon. View Media Gallery Signs and symptoms According to the Rome III criteria for constipation, a patient must have experienced at least 2 of the following symptoms over the preceding 3 months: Fewer than 3 bowel movements per week Straining Lumpy or hard stools Sensation of anorectal obstruction Sensation of incomplete defecation Manual maneuvering required to defecate A constipated patient may be otherwise totally asymptomatic or may complain of 1 or more of the following: Abdominal bloating Pain on defecation Rectal bleeding Spurious diarrhea Low back pain The following also suggest that the patient may have difficult rectal evacuation: Feeling of incomplete evacuation Digital extraction Tenesmus Enema retention The following signs and symptoms, if present, are grounds for particular concern: Rectal bleeding Abdominal pain (suggestive of possible irritable bowel syndrome [IBS] with constipation [IBS-C])Inability to pass flatus Vomiting See Clinical Presentation for more detail. Diagnosis An extensive workup of the constipated patient is performed on an outpatient basis and usually occurs after approximately 3-6 months of failed medical management. Features of the workup are as follows: Rectal and perineal examination should already have been performed but should be repeated Laboratory evaluation does not play a large role in the initial assessment of the patient Imaging studies are used to rule out acute processes that may be causing colonic ileus or to evaluate causes of chronic constipation In patients with acute abdominal pain, fever, leukocytosis, or other symptoms suggesting possible systemic or intra-abdominal processes, imaging studies are used to rule out sources of sepsis or intra-abdominal problems Lower gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy, colonic transit study, defecography, anorectal manometry, surface anal electromyography (EMG), and balloon expulsion may be used in the evaluation of constipation See Workup for more detail. Management Initial treatment measures for constipation include manual disimpaction and transrectal enemas. A well-lubricated gloved finger might be required in patients with lower anorectal impactions."

"text": "Chronic Constipation What Is Chronic Constipation? Chronic constipation is a common condition that is characterized by difficult, infrequent, or perceived incomplete evacuation of bowel movements. Symptoms of constipation include having less than 3 bowel movements per week, straining, hard stools, incomplete evacuation and inability to pass stool. Patients with chronic constipation do not have diarrhea unrelated to using laxatives. The prevalence of chronic constipation ranges from 2-28%. Up to 63 million people in North America meet the diagnostic criteria for chronic constipation. Epidemiologic studies demonstrate that the prevalence of constipation increases with age and is more common in women than men. What Causes Chronic Constipation? There are many different causes of chronic constipation. It can be due to structural lesions of the colon (e.g., colon cancer, colon stricture or narrowing), medical conditions such as diabetes, thyroid disorders, Parkinson’s disease, or pregnancy, or due to medications such as pain medications (narcotics), blood pressure medications (calcium channel blockers), anti-seizure medication, and antispasmodics."

"text": "This article is for Medical Professionals In this article Epidemiology Presentation Differential diagnosis Investigations Associated diseases Management Complications Prognosis Rectal prolapse is the protrusion of either the rectal mucosa or the entire wall of the rectum. Partial prolapse involves only the mucosa and usually only protrudes by a few centimetres. Complete prolapse involves all layers of the rectal wall. Prolapses of the rectum occur either with bowel movements or independently. In the elderly, rectal prolapse initially only occurs with defecation and then retracts spontaneously. More advanced rectal prolapses may occur when standing and so greatly interfere with the patient's quality of life. Epidemiology Uncommon but the true incidence is unknown because of under-reporting, especially in the elderly population. It is most common in the elderly but can occur in all ages, including children. [ 1]Complete prolapse in adults is most common in elderly females. [ 2]In children, rectal prolapse occurs most often in patients between 1 and 3 years of age. ["

Literature review current through: Jan 2018. | This topic last updated: Sep 29, 2017. INTRODUCTION — Constipation is common among children, accounting for an estimated 3 to 5 percent of all visits to pediatricians. Functional constipation is an umbrella term that encompasses a group of disorders associated with persistent, difficult, infrequent, or seemingly incomplete defecation without evidence of a structural or biochemical explanation ( table 1 ) [ 1 ]. Fecal incontinence, also known as encopresis or soiling, refers to the repetitive (voluntary or involuntary) passage of stool in children four years of age and older, at which time a child may be reasonably expected to have completed toilet training and to exercise bowel control."

Encopresis is the soiling of the underwear with stool by children who are past the age of toilet training. Because each child achieves bowel control at his or her own pace, medical professionals do not consider stool soiling to be a medical condition unless the child is at least 4 years of age. This stool or fecal soiling usually has a physical origin and is involuntary, the child does not soil on purpose. In the majority of cases, the soiling is the result of loose or soft stool leaking around more formed stool trapped inside the colon. In the United States, it is estimated that very few children younger than 10 years of age suffer from encopresis. Many more boys than girls experience encopresis. Encopresis Causes Rarely, encopresis is caused by an anatomic abnormality or disease that the child is born with. In the vast majority of cases, encopresis develops as a result of chronic (long-standing) constipation."

"text": "Diagnosis In addition to a general physical exam and a digital rectal exam, doctors use the following tests and procedures to diagnose chronic constipation and try to find the cause: Blood tests. Your doctor will look for a systemic condition such as low thyroid (hypothyroidism). Examination of the rectum and lower, or sigmoid, colon (sigmoidoscopy). In this procedure, your doctor inserts a lighted, flexible tube into your anus to examine your rectum and the lower portion of your colon. Examination of the rectum and entire colon (colonoscopy). This diagnostic procedure allows your doctor to examine the entire colon with a flexible, camera-equipped tube. Evaluation of anal sphincter muscle function (anorectal manometry). In this procedure, your doctor inserts a narrow, flexible tube into your anus and rectum and then inflates a small balloon at the tip of the tube. The device is then pulled back through the sphincter muscle. This procedure allows your doctor to measure the coordination of the muscles you use to move your bowels."

By Barbara Bolen, Ph D | Reviewed by Emmy Ludwig, MDUpdated April 27, 2017Share Pin Email Print John Fedele/Blend Images Anorectal manometry is a diagnostic procedure that measures the muscle tone of the sphincters and other muscles in your anus and rectum. This information can be used by your doctor to better understand and treat any problems you may be having with your bowel movements. A rectal balloon expulsion test may accompany the anorectal manometry procedure. Specifically, these tests assess: The coordination of the rectal and anal muscles The reflex action of the rectal and anal muscles Sensations within the rectum The strength and weakness of the anal and rectal muscles Anorectal manometry is considered to be a safe, low-risk procedure, but there are some questions about its clinical usefulness. Some argue that diagnosis of defecation disorders can be made based on symptom report only. The use of new technology, i.e. the use of high-resolution and high-definition catheters, is hoped to bring about improvements in the validity and usefulness of test results, although research has not yet fully supported this hope. What Is Anorectal Manometry Used For? Anorectal manometry might be recommended to you if you have one of the following health problems: Chronic constipation Dyssynergic defecation. Fecal incontinence (soiling)Tightness of the sphincter muscles during a bowel movement can contribute to constipation, while weakness in the sphincter muscles can lead to fecal incontinence."

Functional bowel disorders is a term that describes a problem with how the stomach and bowels function or work. Irritable bowel syndrome and functional dyspepsia are two types of functional bowel disorders. Physically, all the organs are normal, but there are still signs that something is wrong. Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) describes a group of symptoms that include lower stomach pain that may go away after having a bowel movement. Symptoms also include bloating, constipation and/or diarrhea. It is estimated that about 20% of Americans have irritable bowel syndrome. Irritable bowel syndrome cannot be diagnosed from an x-ray or a blood test. It is based on the symptoms the person reports to their doctor after other causes are ruled out."

Go to: ABSTRACTConstipation is a major medical problem in the United States, affecting 2% to 28% of the population. Individual patients may have different conceptions of what constipation is, and the findings overlap with those in other functional gastrointestinal disorders. In 1999, an international panel of experts laid out specific criteria for the diagnosis of constipation known as the Rome II criteria. When patients present with complaints of constipation, a complete history and physical examination can elicit the cause of constipation. It is imperative to rule out a malignancy or other organic causes of the patient's symptoms prior to making the diagnosis of functional constipation. Many patients' symptoms can be relieved with lifestyle and dietary modification, both of which should be implemented before other potentially unnecessary tests are performed. Functional constipation is divided into two subtypes: slow transit constipation and obstructive defecation. Because many different terms are used interchangeably to describe these subtypes of constipation, physicians need to be comfortable with the language."

Fecal incontinence is the inability to control bowel movements. This leads to stool (feces) leaking from the rectum at unexpected times. It is more common in women and in the elderly of both sexes. Many people who have fecal incontinence are ashamed to talk about this problem with their doctor. They think that nothing can help them. However, many effective treatments for fecal incontinence are available. Causes Why does fecal incontinence occur? Bowel function is controlled by 3 things: anal sphincter pressure, rectal sensation and rectal storage capacity. The anal sphincter is a muscle that contracts to prevent stool from leaving the rectum."

"text": "The Esophagus The esophagus is a muscular tube that connects your throat to your stomach. With each swallow, the esophagus muscle contracts and pushes food into the stomach. At the lower end of the esophagus, a valve (a special sphincter muscle) remains closed except when food or liquid is swallowed or when you belch or vomit. What is esophageal testing, also called manometry, and why is it performed? Esophageal testing or manometry measures the pressures and the pattern of muscle contractions in your esophagus. Abnormalities in the contractions and strength of the muscle or in the sphincter at the lower end of the esophagus can result in pain, heartburn, and/or difficulty swallowing. Esophageal manometry is used to diagnose the conditions that can cause these symptoms. How should I prepare for esophageal testing? An empty stomach allows for the best and safest examination, so do not eat or drink anything for 6 hours before the test. Since many medications can affect esophageal pressure and the natural muscle contractions required for swallowing, be sure to discuss with your healthcare professional each medication you are taking."

D., and KEN KIMURA, M. D., University of Iowa School of Medicine, Iowa City, Iowa Am Fam Physician. 1999 Nov 1;60 (7):2043-2050. Timely passage of the first stool is a hallmark of the well-being of the newborn infant. Failure of a full-term newborn to pass meconium in the first 24 hours may signal intestinal obstruction. Lower intestinal obstruction may be associated with disorders such as Hirschsprung's disease, anorectal malformations, meconium plug syndrome, small left colon syndrome, hypoganglionosis, neuronal intestinal dysplasia and megacystis-microcolon-intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome. Radiologic studies are usually required to make the diagnosis. In addition, specific tests such as pelvic magnetic resonance imaging, anorectal manometry and rectal biopsy are helpful in the evaluation of newborns with failure to pass meconium. The first stool is passed within 24 hours of birth in 99 percent of healthy full-term infants and within 48 hours in all healthy full-term infants. 1 Failure of a full-term newborn to pass meconium within the first 24 hours should raise a suspicion of intestinal obstruction."

Bowel contents can leak through the fistula, allowing gas or stool to pass through your vagina. A rectovaginal fistula may result from: Injury during childbirth Crohn's disease or other inflammatory bowel disease Radiation treatment or cancer in the pelvic area Complication following surgery in the pelvic area The condition may cause emotional distress and physical discomfort, which can impact self-esteem and intimacy. Talk with your doctor if you have signs and symptoms of a rectovaginal fistula, even if it's embarrassing. Some rectovaginal fistulas may close on their own, but most need surgical repair. Symptoms Depending on the fistula's size and location, you may have minor symptoms or significant problems with continence and hygiene. Signs and symptoms of a rectovaginal fistula may include: Passage of gas, stool or pus from your vagina Foul-smelling vaginal discharge Recurrent vaginal or urinary tract infections Irritation or pain in the vulva, vagina and the area between your vagina and anus (perineum)Pain during sexual intercourse When to see a doctor See your doctor if you experience any signs or symptoms of a rectovaginal fistula. A fistula may be the first warning of a more serious problem, such as an infected, pus-filled area (abscess) or cancer.

Anismus can occur in both children and adults, and in both men and women (although it is more common in women). It can be caused by physical defects or it can occur for other reasons or unknown reasons. Anismus that has a behavioral cause could be viewed as having similarities with parcopresis, or psychogenic fecal retention. Symptoms include tenesmus (the sensation of incomplete emptying of the rectum after defecation has occurred) and constipation. Retention of stool may result in fecal loading (retention of a mass of stool of any consistency) or fecal impaction (retention of a mass of hard stool). This mass may stretch the walls of the rectum and colon, causing megarectum and/or megacolon, respectively. Liquid stool may leak around a fecal impaction, possibly causing degrees of liquid fecal incontinence. This is usually termed encopresis or soiling in children, and fecal leakage, soiling or liquid fecal incontinence in adults. Anismus is usually treated with dietary adjustments, such as dietary fiber supplementation."

Loss of Sense of Smell The loss of smell ( anosmia) is not a serious disorder, but it can significantly affect one's quality of life. Taste and smell are closely linked, so people with anosmia also are unable to properly taste food. The sense of smell requires olfactory sensory neurons, sensing cells that detect odors and relay this information to the brain. These neurons are found in the nasal lining. When food is chewed, the odor travels up the back of the throat to the nasal passages. If there is a blockage or swelling in the nasal passages, odor messages are not transmitted to the brain. Likewise, if the specialized neurons are destroyed, the brain cannot receive these sensory messages. There are three major causes of anosmia."

Some peripheral structures are incorporated into the other organs of the body. In describing the anatomy of the PNS, it is necessary to describe the common structures, the nerves and the ganglia, as they are found in various parts of the body. Many of the neural structures that are incorporated into other organs are features of the digestive system; these structures are known as the enteric nervous system and are a special subset of the PNS. Ganglia A ganglion is a group of neuron cell bodies in the periphery. Ganglia can be categorized, for the most part, as either sensory ganglia or autonomic ganglia, referring to their primary functions. The most common type of sensory ganglion is a dorsal (posterior) root ganglion. These ganglia are the cell bodies of neurons with axons that are sensory endings in the periphery, such as in the skin, and that extend into the CNS through the dorsal nerve root. The ganglion is an enlargement of the nerve root."

"text": "\"Sensory Perception A major role of sensory receptors is to help us learn about the environment around us, or about the state of our internal environment. Stimuli from varying sources, and of different types, are received and changed into the electrochemical signals of the nervous system. This occurs when a stimulus changes the cell membrane potential of a sensory neuron. The stimulus causes the sensory cell to produce an action potential that is relayed into the central nervous system (CNS), where it is integrated with other sensory information—or sometimes higher cognitive functions—to become a conscious perception of that stimulus. The central integration may then lead to a motor response. Describing sensory function with the term sensation or perception is a deliberate distinction. Sensation is the activation of sensory receptor cells at the level of the stimulus. Perception is the central processing of sensory stimuli into a meaningful pattern. Perception is dependent on sensation, but not all sensations are perceived. Receptors are the cells or structures that detect sensations."

Share: FULL STORYTreatment with a glucocorticoid medication, either alone or in combination with Ginkgo biloba, appears to significantly improve the sense of smell in individuals with previous olfactory loss due to upper respiratory infections, according to a report in the October issue of Archives of Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery, one of the JAMA/Archives journals. Olfactory loss [loss of the sense of smell] is common and can be caused by head trauma, chronic sinonasal inflammation and viral infections of the nose, according to background information in the article. \"\" In particular, postviral olfactory loss is a complicated disease,\"\" the authors write. Upper respiratory tract viral infections are common and can be caused by numerous viruses such as rhinovirus, influenza viruses, parainfluenza viruses and respiratory syncytial viruses. \"\" However, which viruses cause postviral olfactory loss is unknown, as well as who is susceptible to olfactory damage after the common cold.\"\" Therefore, olfactory disorder is not clearly understood, making treatment for the condition difficult. Beom Seok Seo, M. D., of Seoul National University College of Medicine, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, Seongnam, South Korea, and colleagues studied 71 patients (average age 53) who were diagnosed as having postviral olfactory loss from July 2007 to June 2008. Patients underwent olfactory function tests, including a butanol threshold test (BTT), which examined patients' ability to differentiate N-butanol from mineral oil with concentrations changing over 13 levels through each nostril; and the cross-cultural smell identification test (CCSIT), which examined odor identification through both nostrils for each patient. Follow-up tests were performed four weeks later. \"\""

The popular contributor from Bangkok, Ted, has also submitted a comprehensive explanation and treatment regimen. Nose-blindness, or anosmia, can affect someone profoundly in ways that most of us don’t really appreciate. Yet for animals, smell is the most important of the five senses (sight, taste, smell, touch and sound). Imagine not being able to smell freshly baked bread, roses or your child, fresh from the bath. Food is tasteless for those without a sense of smell. Anosmia is dangerous when someone cannot smell smoke, a gas leak or spoiled food. Loss of the sense of smell can happen at any age and affects as many as 5 million Americans. Sufferers of ‘nose-blindness’ may be told that nothing can be done, just learn to live with it. Loss of smell can be temporary, permanent or come and go."

The perception in patients of which symptoms are the most troublesome often differ from the clinicians view. In earlier Parkinson's Disease, the five most prevalent complaints ranked in descending order were : slowness, tremor, stiffness, pain, and then loss of smell or taste. Advanced Parkinson's Disease Some symptoms become far more common as Parkinson's Disease worsens. The most prevalent of these are hypokinesia, bradykinesia (slowness of movement), akinesia, dyskinesia, dementia, excessive daytime sleepiness, and siallhorea (drooling). In advanced Parkinson's Disease the five most prevalent complaints ranked in descending order were : fluctuating response to medication (most commonly wearing off, followed by dyskinesia), mood changes, drooling, sleep problems (most commonly middle and late night insomnia followed by daytime sleepiness), and then tremor. MUSCULAR SYSTEMIn Parkinson's Disease there are symptoms that can affect the muscles generally. These can include rigidity, tremor, hypokinesia (reduced movement), bradykinesia (slowness of movement), akinesia (loss of movement), dyskinesia (abnormal involuntary movements), akathisia (motor restlessness), and dystonia (abnormal involuntary postures). Those muscular symptoms that can specifically affect the lower limbs are : shuffling (when walking), freezing (feeling unable to walk forwards), festination, falling, and restless legs syndrome. Those muscular symptoms that can specifically affect the upper limbs are : impaired finger dexterity, micrographia (small handwriting), reduced arm swing, mirror movement, and frozen shoulder syndrome."

A related term, hyposmia refers to a decrease in the ability to smell. Some people may be anosmic for one particular odor. This is called \"\"specific anosmia\"\" and may be genetically based. Anosmia can be diagnosed by doctors by using scratch-n-sniff odor tests or by using commonly available odors such as coffee, lemon, and cinnamon. It should be emphasized that there are no more than 5 distinctive tastes: salty, sour, sweet, bitter, and umami. The 10,000 different scents humans usually recognize are lost with the loss of olfaction."

Most mammals and reptiles have a main olfactory system and an accessory olfactory system. The main olfactory system detects airborne substances, while the accessory system senses fluid-phase stimuli. The senses of smell and taste ( gustatory system) are often referred to together as the chemosensory system, because they both give the brain information about the chemical composition of objects through a process called transduction.

Peripheral [ edit]The peripheral olfactory system consists mainly of the nostrils, ethmoid bone, nasal cavity, and the olfactory epithelium (layers of thin tissue covered in mucus that line the nasal cavity). The primary components of the layers of epithelial tissue are the mucous membranes, olfactory glands, olfactory neurons, and nerve fibers of the olfactory nerves. [ 1]Odor molecules can enter the peripheral pathway and reach the nasal cavity either through the nostrils when inhaling ( olfaction) or through the throat when the tongue pushes air to the back of the nasal cavity while chewing or swallowing (retro-nasal olfaction). [ 2] Inside the nasal cavity, mucus lining the walls of the cavity dissolves odor molecules. Mucus also covers the olfactory epithelium, which contains mucous membranes that produce and store mucus and olfactory glands that secrete metabolic enzymes found in the mucus. ["

"text": "\"Loss of Smell and Taste Information, Treatment and Relief We often take for granted the ability to smell and taste and only realize this once these vital senses are lost. Our ability to smell and taste allows us to enjoy delicious foods and savor their rich aromas. This ability also plays an important role in warning us against fires, poisonous substances or even certain gasses which may be harmful or even life threatening. Generally when you cannot smell, you cannot taste. The two senses work in harmony to make you aware of your surroundings and to enjoy life’s pleasures. If one gets interrupted, the other suffers as well. A person's ability to taste and smell may be explained in a simple equation: The ability to taste = (and is influenced by) one's ability to smell an aroma. Try holding your nose and eating something you enjoy most. The result would be that your favorite food doesn't taste as good anymore and has lost its beloved flavor! This example corresponds to when one has a cold with blocked nasal passages; food becomes tasteless and dull, as you are unable to smell the foods delicious aromas."

The inner lining of the nose consists of mucus membrane that contains mucus-secreting glands. Mucus is a thin secretion made up of water, antibodies and proteins. The mucus helps to keep the nasal passages moist and prevent dust or infective particles suspended in the air from reaching the lungs. In some conditions, the mucus production increases and manifests in the form of a running nose. Inflammation of the nasal mucosa is referred to as rhinitis. The excess mucus may drip down the throat, resulting in irritation and frequent clearing of throat. This condition is referred to as postnasal drip. The excess mucus can also block the eustachian tube which connects the nose with the ear resulting in ear infection and pain."

"text": "Yesterday evening, the Washington Post ran a short post by Des Beiler “debunking” a popular meme — launched by Boston Herald columnist and radio show host Gerry Callahan — that ESPN passed over Iraq War vet and double amputee Noah Galloway — a crossfit athlete, distance runner, and recent third-place finisher on “Dancing With the Stars. ”Caitlyn Jenner wins Arthur Ashe Courage Award. And the runner-up is …. pic.twitter.com/DKUdn PT8Gx— Gerry Callahan (@Gerry Callahan) June 1, 2015While it’s obvious that Jenner received the award and Galloway didn’t, Beiler takes issue with the use of “runner-up.” Indeed, ESPN’s press release announcing the award doesn’t mention any runners-up — or any other athletes considered. Instead, it’s full of all the pablum you’d expect when an athlete advances the liberal cultural narrative: Bruce has received many accolades over the years for being one of the greatest Olympians of our time but The ESPYS are honored to celebrate Bruce becoming Caitlyn. She has shown the courage to embrace a truth that had been hidden for years, and to embark on a journey that may not only give comfort to those facing similar circumstances, but can also help to educate people on the challenges that the transgender community faces. Comments So — no — Galloway wasn’t the “runner-up.” The reality, however, is even worse — there’s no evidence that a magnificently courageous man like Galloway was even considered for the award. And if he was indeed considered (or another worthy recipient like Lauren Hill, a college basketball player who died this year after a terrible battle with cancer) and passed over for Jenner, it’s even more absurd."

Entertainment)Caitlyn Jenner is 65 years old, born as Bruce Jenner on October 28, 1949. So, why did Jenner choose to transition into womanhood at this age? Jenner opened up in her Vanity Fair interview, explaining that: If I was lying on my deathbed and I had kept this secret and never ever did anything about it, I would be lying there saying, ‘You just blew your entire life. You never dealt with yourself,’ and I don’t want that to happen. Jenner came out to the public about being transgender in one of the most well-received interviews in history, conducted by Diane Sawyer. She also appeared in two episodes of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, titled “About Bruce.” The episodes were dedicated to the effects her decision to transition was having on her family. Jenner sat down with Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian, Kylie Jenner, Kendall Jenner and ex-wife Kris Jenner to answer any questions they had. Jenner was met with a lot of support, though his family was visibly upset, displaying tears, anger and confusion."

When Caitlyn made her debut on the cover of Vanity Fair in June, unfounded rumors that she had already undergone gender reassignment surgery began to swirl. But as a transgender woman who went through countless and lengthy psychological evaluations before she completed her transition, Caroline has admitted to Daily Mail Online that she is 'praying [Caitlyn] hasn't had surgery' just yet.

Having already done one shoot in 1981, she posed again in 1991, nearly a decade after News of the World exposed her Guidelines for sexual reassignment surgery (SRS) vary from country to country, and Caroline explained that a candidate typically has to undergo psychological testing, and wait at least a year before being approved for sexual reassignment surgery. However, she imagines that someone with extreme wealth, like Caitlyn, would be able to find a way to bypass these requirements. Recalling the detailed and incredibly personal questioning she had to undergo before being able to proceed with gender reassignment surgery, Caroline explained that during Caitlyn's powerful interview with Diane Sawyer in April, the athlete, who maintained she is attracted to women, was not asked whether she got sexually aroused when dressing in women's clothes.

Anyone who sees it differently isn’t thinking clearly. Caitlyn is an attaché of the monstrous Kardashian publicity machine, which has bankrolled an entire network, put the national media in a stranglehold, and persuaded an entire generation of adoring fans to embrace its relentless banality. The former Olympic athlete has shown them all — especially ex-wife Kris, the family’s master puppeteer — that she’s beating the Kardashians at their own game. Her transformation on the July cover of Vanity Fair — from Bruce, a hulking, ruddy-faced guy in a ponytail and sweatpants, i nto Caitlyn, a 1950s-style bathing beauty whose imperfections have been smoothed over through the wizardry of modern graphic design — has been carefully crafted into guaranteed newsstand gold: She’s a product, the most glamorous Kardashian of them all. It comes less than six weeks after Jenner sat down with Diane Sawyer for a “20/20” interview in which she referred to herself using male pronouns.

While the 65-year-old officially introduced herself as Caitlyn to the world in June, Khloe Kardashian says she and her sisters have yet to make the jump themselves to calling the former Olympian by her chosen name. “We don’t like to say that Bruce is gone, per se. We, my sisters and I, we will call Caitlyn ‘Bruce,’ and we’ve been told that’s completely fine,” Kardashian said during an appearance on “The Project” while in Australia promoting the Kardashian Kids clothing line on Thursday. The 31-year-old explained that her stepparent told her and her sisters they were allowed to call her any name they wanted. “Because on the phone, when she calls me, it’s the same voice as Bruce. And if I’m not physically with her, it’s hard to remember in the moment that I’m talking to Caitlyn, if that makes sense,” she said. If Jenner gave permission to her family to call her by any name, that’s her choice, but it’s important for others to realize that transgender individuals have chosen new names to reflect their true identities. There’s a reason Jenner’s docuseries is called “I Am Cait.”"

To celebrate that bravery, ESPN today announced that Jenner will be presented with the Arthur Ashe Courage Award at The 2015 ESPYS Presented by Capital One. Presented annually to individuals whose contributions transcend sports, the Arthur Ashe Courage Award is the pinnacle of the sports celebration, which will be televised Wednesday, July 15, at 8 p.m. ET on ABC from Nokia Theatre L. A. LIVE. Jenner’s unyielding resolve and hard work enabled him to win a gold medal in the 1976 Olympics and break world records. He then parlayed that success into a variety of roles across different areas including television, film, auto racing and business. Although Jenner first captured the attention of the nation for his athletic prowess and determination, the same strength of character shone through this past April when he sat down with ABC’s Diane Sawyer to come out as a transgender woman. “In the past few months, the overwhelming outpouring of support from all over the world for my journey has been incredible,” said Jenner. “ However, being honored with this award, which is named after one of my heroes, is truly special. For the first time this July, I will be able to stand as my true self in front of my peers. ”Added executive producer Maura Mandt: “Bruce has received many accolades over the years for being one of the greatest Olympians of our time but The ESPYS are honored to celebrate Bruce becoming Caitlyn."

July 13, 2015 | By Garrett Montgomery Tweet Candis Cayne, 44, is the woman dating Caitlyn Jenner, according to several reports. The Dirty Sexy Money actress, who is also a transgender woman, apparently began dating the former Olympian after appearing at an event in New York few weeks ago. Moreover, the pair is said to be in love. Candis Cayne, 44, is apparently giving Caitlyn Jenner butterflies in the stomach, according to sources. Candis Cayne is a transgender actress and performance artist, who appeared on numerous television shows including Nip/Tuck, Drop Dead Diva, Necessary Roughness and She’s Living for This. In 2007, Candis Cayne made history by becoming the first transgender star to play a recurring transgender character in prime time thanks to the role of Carmelita on ABC’s Dirty Sexy Money. Miss Cayne, who was born Brendan Mc Daniel and began her transitioning journey in 1996, has also been featured in countless movies such as Groom’s Cake, Crazy Bitches and Making The Boys.

"text": "Follow Us: Get the Upshot in your Inbox The Upshot Gender Identity The Search for the Best Estimate of the Transgender Population Claire Cain Miller @clairecm JUNE 8, 2015The recent debate over public restroom access for transgender people has prompted some questions on just how big an issue this is — how many people are affected by such rules? The size of the transgender population is tricky to estimate, for reasons we discussed almost a year ago, in the article below: When Caitlyn Jenner, formerly known as Bruce Jenner, unveiled her new name, appearance and TV show last week, it shined a light on transgender Americans. But much about the community, such as its size, remains opaque. The main reason is that the United States Census Bureau and other keepers of official records do not ask about gender identity. Also, gender identity can be fluid and hard to define in a multiple-choice list. There are now more than 50 gender options on Facebook, for instance. Some researchers are also concerned that the number is undercounted because of a reluctance among some transgender people to discuss it with survey takers or signify it on a government form. In a study by the National Center for Transgender Equality and the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, 71 percent of transgender people said they hid their gender or gender transition to try to avoid discrimination. Yet knowing more about transgender people is important for policy-making in health, education, criminal justice, social services, sports, the military and more. “We see health disparities and socioeconomic disparities that are likely related to stigma and discrimination, so to understand those and try to figure out what the policy would be to try to remedy those disparities, we just have to have better data,” said Gary Gates, research director at the University of California, Los Angeles Williams Institute, which studies law and public policy related to sexual orientation and gender identity."

Keith Girard 3 years ago 0 Comments Caitlyn Jenner (third from left) communes with like-minded women in this photo he posted on Instagram. He came out in Vanity Fair magazine last week. ( Photo: Caitlyn Jenner)Caitlyn Jenner may be a transgender woman, but she apparently hasn’t lost Bruce Jenner’s eye for the ladies. She says she intends to date women even after her sex reassignment surgery. Will she be a bigger catch than Bruce in his heyday as a ladies’ man? Caitlyn recently dropped in on a Human Rights Campaign event in San Francisco where the focus was on gay rights. “Learned so much this week…” she wrote. “ Unbelievably moving. Can’t wait to share more with you."

"text": "\"Caitlyn Jenner will receive ESPN's Arthur Ashe Courage Award at the televised ESPYs ceremony next month. A network spokesman confirmed the plan for the award on Monday, minutes after Jenner identified as a transgender woman for the first time on the cover of Vanity Fair magazine. Jenner became a national hero when she won the decathalon gold medal with a record-setting performance at the 1976 Olympics. She identified as Bruce Jenner at the time. In announcing the award, ESPN cited Jenner's \"\"athletic prowess and determination\"\" at the Olympics and the \"\"strength of character\"\" that Jenner displayed in her coming-out interview with Diane Sawyer. The Sawyer interview was taped in early February and aired in late April. ESPN selected Jenner for the award in April. Related: Why Caitlyn Jenner chose Vanity Fair for her debut The Arthur Ashe award has been presented every year since the sports-related ESPYs were established in 1993. Recent recipients have included football player Michael Sam, \"\"Good Morning America\"\" co-host Robin Roberts, and longtime University of Tennessee women's basketball coach Pat Summitt. Sam, last year's recipient, became the first NFL prospect to announce he is gay."

"text": "Default Application-wide and Document-level Color Management Settings in Corel DRAW® X7by David Milisock Corel DRAW® Graphics Suite X5 introduced a complete change in approach to color management. That release saw the introduction of the Default Color Management Settings dialog box, for setting application-wide default color profiles, policies, and rendering intents, and the Document Color Settings dialog box for adjusting color settings that apply only to the current document. You can also adjust document color management settings as you are starting a new file in the Create New Document dialog box. The document-level color controls were introduced because Corel DRAW® X5-X7 can properly and simultaneously open multiple documents from different color spaces. Default application-wide color management settings You can access the Default Color Management Settings dialog box (see Figure A) by clicking Tools menu > Color Management > Default Settings. Keep in mind that these default settings aren't suggested color management values. The controls in this dialog box are the same in Corel DRAW and Corel PHOTO-PAINT® with the exception of the Primary color mode setting. The Primary color mode list box is only in Corel DRAW because CDR files (the native format of Corel DRAW) can contain elements from multiple color models (RGB, Grayscale, CMYK and spot color), and you can choose how to handle special-effect rendering. Figure ADefault color settings The options you choose in the Color profiles list boxes set the RGB, Grayscale and CMYK color spaces used for color conversions and become the default settings when creating new documents.

Those using older versions like Corel DRAW 9 or 10 will find my archived version of this article much better. I think it is safe to say Corel DRAW is a victim of its own simplicity. Even someone with minimal skill can produce graphics, which is both good and bad. Corel is so easy to use that professional graphic designers sometimes hate it just because it enables people with no artistic ability to create visual pollution. What sometimes seems to get missed is that Corel also has the ability to streamline the work of a professional graphic artist. Compared with other tools, I find it is usually easier and faster and more powerful than other programs. Features that Corel had several years ago are either just being introduced by the leading design programs, or are still not available. In this part of the series, we will look at some higher level design techniques. Some are common to other programs, others are either unique to Corel, or ones that Corel is better at."

Before graduated Post Script fills became the norm in digital illustration, metallic illustration effects like the one shown below could only be achieved through tedious, manual airbrushing. The final effect Fortunately, Corel DRAW includes simple tools to emulate virtually any illustration effect. Following the steps in this exercise will demonstrate one of the quickest and simplest ways of producing striking-looking chrome lettering. Although I’ve chosen to use Corel DRAW X4 for this tutorial, the step sequence I describe can be used with virtually any version of Corel DRAW as far back as version 5. I’ve also specified colors using the CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, black) color model. Step 1: Create an Object for Your Effect You can make virtually any object appear as if it is made from metal using this technique. To make it interesting, I’ve chosen to use an Artistic Text object. As you follow along, you can imagine other object types to use. But until then, use the Text Tool to enter a string of characters-ideally in all uppercase characters."

"text": "\"Working with Photoshop files in Corel DRAW® Graphics Suite by Ariel Garaza Diaz In this tutorial we will be covering some of the most common tasks facing an Adobe Photoshop user who is transitioning to Corel® PHOTO-PAINT™. Corel DRAW and Corel PHOTO-PAINT and Adobe Illustrator/Photoshop have many similarities and share some basic drawing and design capabilities, which makes it easy to move from one application to the other. Have you been using Photoshop for a long time? If the answer is \"\"Yes\"\", you will probably want to continue working in an environment that is comfortable and familiar to you. Some users believe that transitioning to Corel DRAW means having to learn a program from scratch, or will mean a drastic change in the way they work. But the good news is that this is not necessary; you can continue working as usual, and even better. Moreover, you can work with both programs at the same time if you wish. Corel DRAW and Photoshop are good friends. Here we will provide some hints about how to work with both programs. Let's start with one of the basic and most frequent problems: removing the background from an image."

February 13, 2012 by DCR Staff Reads (15,380)Tweet Comments (0) Discuss (1) Email Print Review Specs Shop Editor's Rating Pros Fast and responsive Comprehensive editing tools Can edit specific areas of an image Runs on Windows, Mac and Linux Cons No red-eye correction No dual-monitor support Only a handful of plug-ins so far Certain quirks to the user interface (UI), such as arrangement of keyboard shortcuts in reverse order Quick Take After Shot Pro is a leaner, faster photo editor that could enjoy a competitive edge on a notebook or underpowered desktop. By David English If you’re into digital cameras, you’re probably still searching for the perfect photo editor. Full-featured photo editing software, such as Adobe Photoshop Lightroom or Apple ’s Aperture, can be somewhat slow and cumbersome, especially on an older desktop or notebook computer. You can find smaller editors that are lightning fast, but they tend to be too lightweight in their capabilities. On the other hand, the recently released Corel After Shot Pro ($99.99) is well worth considering as an alternative to either Lightroom or Aperture. All three programs offer non-destructive photo editing, which means the original image is left intact. You can back out of your edit steps at any time to return to a prior edit. The feature mix is different among the three programs, although you could argue that the tools and results are just about comparable. Although it might or might not turn out to be your favorite, After Shot Pro is in the same league as Lightroom and Aperture in both the quantity and quality of its features."

Corel DRAW supports graphics from Adobe Photoshop (.psd) and you can import it to the program as an object. There is a special function in Corel DRAW called Corel Power Trace which can be used to convert bitmap graphics to vectors and thus save it as CDR format. This function is accessible through the Raster ► Convert to Raster menu option after you have selected the object (imported PSD image). It is not clear however, how Corel Draw manages the layers in .psd graphics.

How to Highlight Skills During Your Job Application Process Adding a skills section to your resume is an easy, handy way to draw attention to your abilities, including your computer skills. Because many companies initially search resumes for desired keywords by computer, a good list can get your application in the door. You can also weave in your skills when you are writing your job descriptions on your resume. For instance, instead of saying \"\"Edited content on website,\"\" you could write, \"\"Edited content within Content Management System, using basic HTML for formatting. \"\" Before writing your cover letter, read the job description carefully.

"text": "\"Word Perfect shortens the road to file conversion Suppose you need to convert a batch of Microsoft® Word files to Word Perfect®. How do you go about doing it? Do you open the files in Word Perfect one at a time? Opening files individually works fine if you are converting only one or two files. It's very time consuming, however, if you need to convert multiple files. Do you create a macro? You could, but, again, you probably have better things to do. The options listed above describe the long road to file conversion, but you will be happy to know that there is a shortcut. Word Perfect has another option for converting multiple files simultaneously: the Word Perfect® Office Conversion Utility. It can convert various types of files, such as Microsoft® Word files, to one of five Word Perfect file formats."

When it comes to software people tend to go with what they know, so the real determining factor is you. There are many questions to ask yourself when choosing a software, such as, what is my budget, what type of images do I intend to make, and of course, How difficult will it be to learn the feature set of the software."

Genetic deficiencies and a rare autoimmune disorder may cause lowered plasma clotting factor activity so as to compromise blood-clotting; when a blood vessel is injured, a scab does not form and the vessel continues to bleed for an excessive period of time. The bleeding can be external, if the skin is broken by a scrape, cut or abrasion, or it can be internal, into muscles, joints or hollow organs. The result may be visible (e.g., skin bruises. )"

I had always thought of myself as young and good-looking, and her words unintentionally rocked my world and self-esteem. I knew that over the past several years, even when I was happy, I didn’t want to be in any group photos. And thinking further back, I realized that as every year passed I had to go through a larger and larger pile of pictures to find ones that I liked. For some strange reason, good photos seemed harder to find. Yep, it was time for a facelift. As a 53 year-old male, I knew that no one had emerged unscathed from the stresses of the current great recession. When Suzanne, a dear friend of mine, got a facelift a few years ago, she was elated.

"text": "\"Bruising cause and natural treatment and prevention with vitamins and supplements Cause of easy bruising and alternative therapy, home remedy June 10 2016 by Ray Sahelian, M. D. Bruising is bleeding that occurs underneath the surface of the skin. Normally it is usually caused by injury. In patients with bleeding disorders, however, spontaneous bruising may occur or a bruise may appear with minimal injury. Since they are formed from clotted blood, they tend to start out as dark or reddish shadowing close to the surface of the skin. As the trapped blood is broken down and absorbed by the body, it changes color -- typically to green and yellow -- because of chemical changes in the blood. Eventually the body reabsorbs the blood and the mark disappears. Easy bruising and frequent bleeding are characteristic manifestations of clotting and platelet disorders, they are also prominent features in some heritable disorders. If you have unusual bruising, consult with your doctor for a medical workup. Natural Supplements that may cause easy bruising when used in excess and combined with blood thinning drugs: Fish oils when used in excess Ginkgo biloba herbal extract may thin the blood Ginger supplement Garlic when eaten in excess Onions can thin the blood Q. When taking supplements like ginger, curcumin, fish oil and Vitamin E, is it possible that combining all of these can make one's blood too thin?

"text": "Acupuncture Side Effects & Adverse Reactions (List)Share Pin Reddit Stumble Email15Acupuncture is a form of complementary alternative medicine (CAM) in which a practitioner (acupuncturist) stimulates the skin of his/her client transcutaneously [with needles] or transdermally [with electrical pulses or lasers]. According to proponents of traditional Chinese medicine, the precise stimulation of sites across the skin (referred to as “acupuncture points”) modulates the flow of energy within the body [through energy channels known as meridians]. The resulting modulation of internal energy flow is said to provide relief from chronic health conditions and promote recovery from diseased states. Although there’s zero evidence to substantiate the existence of acupuncture points and meridians, it is understood that stimulation of the skin and peripheral nerves [as is induced by acupuncture], may significantly alter physiology and neurobiology. The physiological and/or neurobiological alterations that occur following acupuncture are theorized to enhance health and/or alleviate symptomatic severity of medical conditions. Whether a legitimate therapeutic effect can be attained from acupuncture is somewhat unclear. Data published in Chinese, Japanese, and Taiwanese journals report that acupuncture is an effective intervention for an array of medical conditions. However, a critical look at these data reveals that they: were published in journals with an impact factor of zero, of low methodological quality, and subject to significant bias. Conversely, data attained from reputable scientific journals (e.g. Cochrane) suggests that acupuncture is largely ineffective for a myriad of medical conditions. The technique may provide modest short-term therapeutic benefit in combatting post-surgical emetic symptoms, certain types of pain, as well as headaches. Despite its non-existent efficacy for most conditions, an estimated 21 million Americans (6.5% of the United States population) have tried acupuncture. When practiced properly by a licensed professional, acupuncture is associated with few unwanted side effects and/or adverse events."

"text": "\"Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP)Health Guide More What Is It? Immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), also known by the shorter name Immune Thrombocytopenia (same abbreviation ITP), can be understood by looking at the three terms that make up its name: Immune indicates that the illness is caused by the immune system, which makes cells and antibodies that attack the person's own platelets — the parts of the blood that help the blood to clot. Thrombocytopenic means that the illness is related to low levels of thrombocytes, another name for platelets. Platelets are produced in the bone marrow (the central lining of the bones). The body needs adequate numbers of functioning platelets to allow blood to clot and to limit bleeding if you are cut or experience other types of trauma. Purpura means that the illness produces a red or purple rash that is caused by bleeding under the skin. This is only one manifestation of the disease In short, ITP is an illness in which unusually low levels of platelets lead to purpura and other forms of abnormal bleeding. In people with ITP, the immune system produces abnormal proteins called antiplatelet antibodies. These misdirected proteins attach themselves to the surface of blood platelets as if the platelets were \"\"foreign\"\" or invading bacteria or viruses. As the affected platelets circulate in the bloodstream, they are recognized as abnormal by the spleen and removed from the blood."

If not diagnosed and treated early, it properly may lead to serious kidney problems and even death. Here’s an in-depth look into this common consequence of road accidents and other incidents that cause traumatic injuries to the kidneys. Symptoms What are the symptoms of a bruised kidney? The unique location of kidneys in the flank (deep inside the back of the upper abdomen) provides them with adequate protection from external forces. A fall can cause darkening of the skin on the sides. In that area, they get protection form not only the abdomen itself but also from the strong back muscles, the spine, and lower rib cages. There is a good reason for this: kidneys have a particularly large supply of blood and injury to them can cause significant bleeding. You can still sustain a bruised kidney, otherwise known as a kidney contusion, nevertheless as a result of direct traumatic impact to the lower back that causes damages to blood vessels in the kidney. You are also likely to get rib cage contusions and injuries."

"text": "\"10 Things Your Skin Says About Your Health10 clues your skin gives about your well-being By Paula Spencer Scott, Senior Health Writer | Last updated: Feb 06, 2018All Rights Reserved If skin were merely a sausage casing for the rest of you, it wouldn't be nearly so useful. An organ itself (your body's largest in terms of both weight and surface area), skin protects against invasive bacteria, regulates body temperature, and picks up information from the stimulation of touch, pressure, pain, heat, and cold. Little wonder, then, that when there's something wrong with you on the inside, your skin sometimes sends up the first warning flare. \"\" Diabetes, for example, is generally a silent disease, but it can lead to distinct changes to the skin. So the skin may in fact be the first indicator of what's happening,\"\" notes dermatologist Amy Newburger, MD, of Scarsdale, New York, a spokesperson for the American Academy of Dermatology. Here's the skinny on ten dermatologic oddities worth watching for in yourself or someone you love. Red flag: Yellowish skin, orange palms and soles What it means: The cartoonish skin hues of carotenemia can be the unfunny result of an underactive thyroid gland -- hypothyroidism -- which causes increased levels of beta-carotene in the blood. Beta-carotene is an antioxidant, found in fruits and vegetables, that normally gets processed by the thyroid. When there's a thyroid problem, the gland doesn't metabolize the vitamins as quickly, so beta-carotene accumulates. You can also get Technicolor skin due to beta-carotene buildup thanks to a diet heavy on carrots, carrot juice, sweet potatoes, and squash."

"text": "\"Surgery St-Wr Vein Ligation and Stripping Vein ligation and stripping Follow City-Data.com founder on our Forum or @Lech Mazur Definition Vein ligation and stripping is a surgical approach to the treatment of varicose veins. It is also sometimes called phlebectomy. Ligation refers to the surgical tying off of a large vein in the leg called the greater saphenous vein, while stripping refers to the removal of this vein through incisions in the groin area or behind the knee. If some of the valves in the saphenous vein are healthy, the weak portion of the vein can be closed off by ligation. If the entire vein is weak, it is closed off and pulled downward and out through an incision made below it. Tying and removal of the greater saphenous vein is done to reduce the pressure of blood flowing backward through this large vein into the smaller veins that feed into it. Phlebectomy is one of the oldest forms of treatment for varicose veins; the earliest description of it was written by Aulus Cornelius Celsus, a Roman historian of medicine, in A . D . 45. The first description of a phlebectomy hook comes from a textbook on surgery published in 1545."

Bruises often change in color largely dependent on the depth of the bruise, thus the color of the bruise may change from yellow to green."

Prime the inhaler before using for the first time and when the inhaler has not been used for more than 3 days by releasing 4 test sprays into the air, away from the face. To maintain proper use of Xopenex HFA, it is critical to wash the actuator with warm water and air-dry thoroughly at least once a week.

For instance, a person who has ADHD might have difficulty sustaining focus, staying organized, sitting still, and delaying gratification. The average age of diagnosis for ADHD is seven years old. How is ADHD Treated? Lately, parents and pediatricians have had a lot of options when choosing medications to treat children who have ADHD. In addition to short-acting stimulants, they could choose among long-acting stimulants, like Adderall XR, Vyvanse, Ritalin LA, Concerta, and Daytrana (the Ritalin patch). Or they could use Strattera, Intuniv, or Kapvay, which are all non-stimulants. However, when you consider that Daytrana, Ritalin LA, and Concerta are all long-acting forms of methylphenidate or Ritalin, the number of choices seems much more limiting. Fortunately, there is another stimulant that is related to Ritalin that can be used to treat ADHD. Focalin XR (dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride) is a long-acting form of Focalin and can be used to treat children, teens, and adults who have ADHD."

It is made from the French maritime pine tree and is claimed to be useful for treating a wide variety of medical conditions. Specifically, people claim that Pycnogenol is beneficial for preventing and/or treating the following conditions: Asthma Chronic venous insufficiency (a condition that involves leg swelling, varicose veins, pain, itching, and other skin changes)High blood pressure ( hypertension)Retinopathy (an eye condition commonly caused by diabetes)Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder ( ADHD)Blood clots in the legs ( deep vein thrombosis)Diabetes Impotence (also known as erectile dysfunction, or ED)High cholesterol Male infertility Painful menstrual periods (dysmenorrhea). Pycnogenol is also said to improve athletic performance. As with any dietary supplement, Pycnogenol is probably not beneficial for every single possible use. Of all the uses that the supplement is claimed to treat, the strongest evidence is for treating asthma, chronic venous insufficiency, high blood pressure, and retinopathy."

A TIA is a sudden episode in which there is a brief interruption in blood flow to part of the brain. Most TIAs occur when an embolism or thrombosis blocks blood flow to the brain. They usually last less than 30 minutes and cause symptoms similar to those of a full stroke, such as loss of balance, trouble speaking or understanding speech, and confusion. If you or someone else experiences such symptoms, don't wait for them to go away -- call 911 right away. What Is a Mini-Stroke? The term \"\" mini-stroke \"\" refers to a transient ischemic attack ( TIA for short). In a mini- stroke, there is a short-term interruption in blood flow to the brain. This causes temporary stroke symptoms (often just for a few minutes), such as weakness or tingling in an arm or leg. Mini-strokes do not cause brain damage, but they are important warning signs that a person is at risk of having a stroke."

Credit: Hospital image via Shutterstock Stroke is the No. 4 cause of death and the leading cause of disability among adults in the United States, according to the American Stroke Association. A stroke occurs when the flow of blood to the brain is disrupted, which can happen when there's a blockage in one of the brain's blood vessels or when one of these blood vessels ruptures. Blood carries oxygen to the brain, which controls all of the body's functions. Without oxygen-rich blood, the brain begins to shut down. But stroke — also known as cerebrovascular disease — is often preventable, according to Dr. Ralph Sacco, chairman of neurology at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. Controlling blood pressure, not smoking and maintaining a healthy body weight are just some of the ways that people can help mitigate the risk of stroke, Sacco told Live Science. Types and causes of stroke A person will be affected differently by stroke depending on what part of the brain is affected and how much brain tissue is damaged as a result of the stroke. There are also several different types of stroke, which affect the brain in different ways."

Follow 5 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: A mini stroke is in fact lay slang, rather than a medical term. It would simply mean a completed stroke with minimal residual weakness. A TIA or transient iscaemic attack is not technically a stroke, since by definition it leaves behind no permanent weakness. It is merely a brief blockage in a brain artery, either due to spasm or a temporary clumping of platelets that clears spontaneously.

"text": "Mini Strokes - Transient Ischemic Attack A mini stroke is the common term for a transient ischemic attack. Mini strokes have a sudden onset and symptoms disappear within 24 hours. This can be problematic for people who experience a mini stroke since they often do not seek medical attention once the symptoms subside. People who have a mini stroke (also TIA Transient Ischemic Attack) frequently have a stroke later on. As many as 30% of people who experience mini stroke have a stroke within one year. It is important to know the symptoms of mini strokes and to seek medical attention if one occurs so that steps can be taken to prevent a stroke from occurring later. A stroke occurs when blood flow in the brain is interrupted. This can occur because of a blockage such as a blood clot, or even because a blood vessel breaks. When blood flow is interrupted, the brain cannot get the oxygen it needs, and brain cells quickly begin to die. The effects of strokes are long-term, and most people experience some kind of permanent damage following a stroke."

Photograph: Walter Sanders/Time & Life Pictures/Getty Image Health problems that blighted the Roman general Julius Caesar may have resulted from a spate of mini-strokes, according to a fresh review of his symptoms. The great military leader, who was instrumental in the rise of the Roman empire, suffered a host of medical ailments, from vertigo, dizziness and insensibility to limb weakness that on occasion caused him to fall over. In one of the most prominent incidents, Caesar collapsed at the battle of Thapsus in 46BC and had to be carried to safety. In his biography of Caesar, the Greek historian Plutarch suggested the fall was an epileptic attack. The diagnosis has prevailed for centuries since, though scholars have not been short of other proposals, including bad migraines and seizures brought on by malaria or a parasitic brain infection caught during his Egyptian campaign. But doctors at Imperial College, London, argue in new research that the symptoms described in Greek and Roman writings point to a different diagnosis entirely. They believe that rather than suffering from late onset epilepsy, Julius Caesar had a number of mini-strokes that damaged him physically and triggered changes in his mental state too. “All of the symptoms reported in Caesar’s life are compatible with him having multiple mini-strokes,” said Francesco Galassi, a medical doctor at Imperial who conducted the analysis with Hutan Ashrafian, a surgeon at the college. Born in 100BC, Caesar rose swiftly through the political system, conquered Gaul, and crossed the Rubicon river under arms, sparking the civil war that ultimately left him dictator of Rome."

"text": "Carotid artery disease is the narrowing of the carotid arteries, the main arteries located on the sides of your neck. These arteries supply blood flow directly to the brain. A blockage consisting of an atherosclerotic plaque can develop in the artery. This blockage can not only narrow the channel for blood to flow through but can also cause turbulence and small clots to form on the plaque surface. These small clots and bits of plaque can “break off” into the bloodstream and be carried away – up to the brain and cause a stroke or mini-stroke. A stroke is a sudden change in neurological functioning that results in paralysis, weakness, blindness, numbness or difficulty with speech.

Call 9-1-1 if you notice stroke symptoms developing in someone. Stroke Symptoms Initial symptoms of a stroke can occur in someone suddenly. Know these signs of a stroke: Difficulty speaking Difficulty understanding or confusion, especially with simple tasks Difficulty with muscle strength, especially on one side of the body Difficulty with numbness, especially on one side of the body Severe headache Vision changes (in one or both eyes)Difficulty with swallowing Facial droop on one side Signs of a Stroke The F.

It takes into account the most common symptoms of stroke and is designed to help quickly assess a stroke with very little training.=\"\"\"\">F. A. S. T. Test F means face -- If one side of the face droops, it's a sign of a possible stroke A means arms -- If the person cannot hold both arms out, it's another possible stroke sign S means speech -- Slurring words and poor understanding of simple sentences is another possible stroke sign T means time -- If any of the FAS signs are positive, it's Time to call 9-1-1 immediately Strokes and the Brain Remember the FAST test for stroke. The “T” in FAST also means the longer the brain is blocked from its blood supply (usually due to a blood clot), the greater the brain damage possible. For many patients, the time limit to diagnose and treat such a clot is usually within 3 hours (some clinicians suggest a bit longer). In some qualified patients, the use of a clot-busting drug may be used to dissolve the clot and restore blood flow."

"text": "\"Long-Term Impact of TIAPrint Don't let the name fool you. Despite their short-term duration, transient ischemic attacks (TIAs; \"\"mini strokes\"\") may not be \"\"transient\"\" after all. According to a new study, TIAs may have long-term consequences —they can shorten life expectancy by up to 20 percent. The study, published online in the journal Stroke, analyzed the hospital and death records of more than 22,000 adults up to nine years after hospitalization for a TIA and found that the life expectancy of these patients was lower than that of the general population. In addition, the study found that among patients who had experienced a TIA, mortality was greater in older people. Compared with people diagnosed with TIA under age 50, those ages 65 to 74 had a relative risk of early death that was almost five times higher, those ages 75 to 84 had a relative risk almost eight times higher and those 85 and older had a relative risk that was 11 times higher. Several factors may explain this finding. However, the take-home point is that individuals already treated for TIA have more to gain from controlling their risk factors than those who have not yet experienced a TIA. What is a TIA? Sometimes referred to as \"\"mini\"\" strokes, TIAs originate in the same manner as a stroke but don't cause permanent brain damage."

The alterations result in changes in a person's ability to function normally. Stroke is sometimes termed a brain attack or a cardiovascular accident (CVA). It is much like a heart attack, only it occurs in the brain. Strokes are usually caused by brain vessel blockage or bleeding into the brain tissue; both causes result in an inability for an individual to function normally, but there are ways to treat and prevent or reduce the development of strokes. Do not wait or hesitate to call for emergency medical help for someone suffering a stroke.

It took a long time for Helen to respond to the doorbell. When she finally opened the door, the neighbor, too, was alarmed: Helen was getting dressed but she had left the shower running. Her movements were awkward, as if half her body was not functioning properly. The neighbor called Helen's doctor, who said she should be taken to the hospital without delay. Helen remembers none of this. After testing her from head to toe, the doctors concluded that Helen had had a T. I.

Andro Gel and other “low-T” treatments, which are available as testosterone gels, patches, pellets and injections, have recently been linked to an increased risk of cardiac problems in older and middle-aged men with a history of heart disease. At Morgan & Morgan, our attorneys believe that the manufacturers of Andro Gel and other testosterone therapies had a duty to warn patients about the risk of heart attack and stroke, but failed to provide any indication of these potential side effects on their products’ labeling or advertising materials. If you or a loved one suffered a heart attack, stroke, pulmonary embolism or other serious side effect while on testosterone therapy, our attorneys may be able to help you file a lawsuit seeking compensation for medical bills, pain and suffering and other damages. To learn more about filing a lawsuit, contact us today for a free consultation. Studies Highlight Serious Heart Risk for Andro Gel, Testosterone Therapies A study conducted by a group of researchers at the National Cancer Institute revealed that some men have an increased risk of suffering heart attacks while using prescription testosterone therapies. The study of approximately 56,000 patients found that men over the age of 65, as well as patients younger than 65 with a history of heart disease, had twice the rate of heart attacks in the three months after beginning testosterone therapy when compared to the year prior to treatment. The study also addressed whether these men were at a greater risk for cardiac problems due to an increase in libido caused by higher testosterone levels. When the study compared these men to a separate group of patients taking Viagra and Cialis, the men on the erectile dysfunction drugs patients did not experience more heart attacks. Another study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association had similar results, finding that older men had a 29% increase in stroke, heart attack and death when undergoing testosterone therapy."

[email protected] The clinical differential diagnosis of melanoma presents a formidable challenge even to experienced physicians. The concern of the clinician of missing an early curable melanoma conflicts with his or her desire to avoid unnecessary minor or even major surgery in cases where benign lesions show doubtful features. These issues are particularly evident when considering melanoma simulators, those entities that may be clinically and sometimes histologically confused with melanoma [ 1, 2, 3 ]. Pigmented spindle-cell nevus (PSCN) is a benign melanocytic lesion first described by Reed et al. [ 4 ]. It is generally considered a separate clinicopathologic entity, even if some authors classify this nevus as a variant of Spitz nevus [ 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 ]. PSCN has clinical and histopathologic features that may create difficulty in differentiating it from melanoma. We consider this tumor to be a separate clinical entity from Spitz nevus, and so we chose to focus our interest on its clinical features. Epiluminescence Microscopy (ELM), a noninvasive technique employed in the clinical diagnosis of pigmented skin lesions, permits a detailed examination of the pigmented structures of the epidermis and dermoepidermal junction."

Rogers, MDProfessor of Dermatology Beverly Hospital Cancer Center Lahey Health System Boston, Massachusetts Atypical moles, also called dysplastic nevi (DN), are considered by many to reside in the grey portion of the spectrum between benign nevi and melanoma. Because of the difficulty of assessing the behavior of an individual DN, and the association with an increased overall risk of melanoma, physicians and patients have grappled with the choice between observation and surgical excision. 1 In the absence of a reliable predictive test or formal management guidelines, many physicians elect complete surgical excision of DN. The prevalence of DN is believed to be at least 8-10 percent in susceptible populations, 2,3 posing a large health burden. An improved understanding of their role in and relationship with melanoma thus remains an important objective. In pursuit of this goal, our research team examined detailed outcomes of surgical excision of DN, as well as the association of DN with melanoma. 1 This pivotal data was analyzed for clinically relevant measures and sorted by grade of atypia, forming the first published evidence of specific DN excision outcomes. Clinically, atypical moles exhibit border or color irregularity, have a variable and often larger size than ordinary moles (5-15 mm), and are often found in patients with numerous nevi (often >50-100). 4 Clark, Lynch and Elder originally described the clinical and histologic characteristics of these distinctive-appearing nevi in a portion of melanoma-prone families and sporadically in individuals prone to melanoma. 5,6 Biopsy of either normal-appearing nevi or clinically atypical nevi reveals a subset with histologic features of atypia, such as atypical melanocytic hyperplasia, lamellar or eosinophilic fibrosis, and lymphocytic inflammatory response; these are termed nevi with architectural disorder, or dysplastic nevi."

It originates in the melanocytes (the pigment producing cells) that colonize the epidermis. This disease can appear underneath the skin or on the skin’s surface. Melanocytic nevus is related to common birthmarks and they can appear to be a simple beauty mark. These growths are pinkish to brown in coloration and they are less than a centimeter thick. Melanocytic nevi tend to multiply throughout an individual’s life. This multiplication peaks in the third or fourth decade of life. Although melanocytic nevus is not contagious or life threatening to the patient, treatment immediately upon diagnosis is highly advised. Risk Factors Risk factors associated with melanocytic nevus include: Number: Having 100 or more moles drastically increases your chances of developing melanocytic nevus. Family History: Most patients that develop melanocytic nevus have a parent or sibling with the disorder."

What you should be alert for in the history The term sebaceoma was introduced in 1984 by Troy and Ackerman to describe a benign adnexal tumor differentiating toward sebocytes, distinct from sebaceous hyperplasia, sebaceous adenoma, basal cell carcinoma with sebaceous differentiation and sebaceous carcinoma. Sebaceoma was meant to redefine the previously used and confusing term “sebaceous epithelioma,” which was not well defined in the literature. Characteristic findings on physical examination Lesions typically occur on the face and scalp, although cases on the chest, back and neck have been described. Sebaceoma can arise in a pre-existing nevus sebaceus. Clinically sebaceomas are typically solitary, yellow-orange papules or nodules that range in size from 6 mm up to 3 cm in diameter. Recognition of this tumor is important as it can be associated with Muir-Torre Syndrome (MTS)."

[ 2]The majority of moles appear during the first two decades of a person's life, with about one in every 100 babies being born with moles.

[ 3] A mole can be either subdermal (under the skin) or a pigmented growth on the skin, formed mostly of a type of cell known as a melanocyte. The high concentration of the body's pigmenting agent, melanin, is responsible for their dark color.

If your doctor refers to a lesion in your eye that needs to be tracked, she is most likely talking about a choroidal nevus. The accumulation of pigmented cells that makes up a nevus occurs in a very small percentage of the population. Estimates put occurence at 2% 1,2,3 on the low end and 10%-13% 4 on the high end. Wills Eye Hospital, which sees a vere large number of cases, states, \"\"Choroidal nevus is the most common intraocular tumor, occurring in about seven percent of adults.\"\" Suffice it to say, approximately 1 in 10 people have these freckles. They are never present at birth, though. Pigmentation appearing to be a choroidal nevus in infancy is usually from choroidal neurofibroma, seen as a part of systemic neurofibromatosis. Nevi of the choroid can be seen before puberty but they are unusual. They are also very rare in African Americans."

The following discussion refers to common nevi in general, whether junctional, dermal or compound, and includes differences between the subtypes when applicable. Clinical Features: Common benign melanocytic proliferations which increase in number with age until approximately the third decade of life and subsequently tend to regress as the patient ages A greater number of nevi tends to occur in lighter-skinned individuals. Nevi on the palms and soles, nail beds and conjuntivae are more common in blacks. All common nevi are typically well-circumscribed round to oval lesions a few millimeters in diameter with relative symmetry. Common nevi sometimes have a verrucous appearance reminiscent of seborrheic keratosis and sometimes contain coarse hairs. General clinical appearances of the various types of common nevi are: Junctional: Uniform brown macules Compound: Variable elevation, typically lighter in color than junctional nevi Dermal (intradermal): Generally more elevated, lighter brown than compound nevi or skin colored, sometimes dome shaped or papillomatous Common nevi typically begin as junctional nevi, then evolve into compound and finally dermal nevi before ultimately involuting. Histologic Features: Junctional nevus: Nests of nevus cells are confined to the epidermis, with nests mainly located at the tips of the rete ridges. Compound nevus (most common type): Nests of nevus cells within the epidermis as well as nevus cells within the dermis. The junctional component does not typically extend peripherally beyond the dermal component, in contrast to atypical nevi and melanomas. Dermal (intradermal) nevus: Nevus cells are confined to the dermis."

"text": "The Mazatec Indians – The Mushrooms Speakby Reprinted with Permission | May 6, 2010 | Peoples | 0 comments-By Henry Munn Henry Munn has investigated the use of hallucinogenic plants among the Conibo Indians of eastern Peru and the Mazatec Indians of the mountains of Oaxaca, Mexico. Although not a professional anthropologist, he has resided for extended periods of time among the Mazatecs and is married to the niece of the shaman and shamaness referred to in this essay. ( 1)Outline of Use The Mazatec Indians, who have a long tradition of using the mushrooms, inhabit a range of mountains called the Sierra Mazateca in the northeastern corner of the Mexican state of Oaxaca. The shamans in this essay are all natives of the town of Huautla de Jimenez. Properly speaking they are Huautecans; but since the language they speak has been called Mazatec and they have been referred to in the previous anthropological literature as Mazatecs, I have retained that name, though strictly speaking, Mazatecs are the inhabitants of the village of Mazatlan in the same mountains. The Mazatec Indians eat the mushrooms only at night in absolute darkness. It is their belief that if you eat them in the daylight you will go mad. The depths of the night are recognized as the time most conducive to visionary insights into the obscurities, the mysteries, the perplexities of existence. Usually several members of a family eat the mushrooms together: it is not uncommon for a father, mother, children, uncles, and aunts to all participate in these transformations of the mind that elevate consciousness onto a higher plane. The kinship relation is thus the basis of the transcendental subjectivity that Husserl said is intersubjectivity."

"text": "\"Section Navigation Home Study Guides Prometheus Bound Themes Prometheus Boundby Aeschylus Buy Study Guide Prometheus Bound Themes Reason vs. Power One of the great themes of Prometheus Bound is the frustration and helplessness of reason and rightness in the face of sheer power. Aeschylus hammers the theme home by having Prometheus chained by two demonic forces with allegorical names. Violence, appropriately, is mute, and in many productions Violence is played as a kind of beast. Might is a ruthless, pitiless deity, without any will of his own. He is the fist of Zeus: cold, cruel, the institution of tyranny personified. Viewing Prometheus as reason, we see the play as partly the story of reason's tragic limits, and its helplessness in the face of brutal, unthinking force. Individual of Conscience vs. Tyranny This theme is closely connected to the theme of Reason vs. Power. As in the Oresteia, Aeschylus gives us a magnificent net of symbols and metaphor, all working on multiple levels at once. Prometheus is reason and wisdom personified; he is also the individual of conscience in a totalitarian state. Anxiety about tyranny surfaces often in Greek plays."

They then asked members to vote for the top 10 among the 111 nominated. “This program recognizes key individuals who have been critical in building and shaping our field over the past 25 years,” noted Steve R. Smith, AAHPM executive director and CEO. “ These individuals represent thousands of other healthcare professionals in this country that provide quality medical care and support for those living with serious illness — each and every day. ”The Visionaries – 14 women and 16 men – are physicians, nurses and hospice pioneers such as British physician, nurse and social worker Cicely Saunders, credited with starting the modern hospice movement, and Elisabeth Kübler Ross, author of numerous books including the groundbreaking “On Death and Dying.” Five elected officials were nominated and one of them, former President Ronald Reagan, was named a Visionary for signing into law the Medicare hospice benefit in 1982. Many of the visionaries will be sharing their thoughts about the field and who inspired their work. We’ll be posting them over the next several months. Today’s post is from Betty Ferrell, Ph D MA RN CHPN FAAN FPCN, Research Scientist, City of Hope National Medical Center in Duarte, CA.

"text": "The Rapture Theory - Its Surprising Origin Almost all Christians are interested in prophecy. This is especially true if the prophecies show what will happen to Christians themselves. There is nothing wrong in desiring such personal knowledge. Even our Lord gave a considerable amount of teaching about the circumstances to befall His people at the end of the age (Matthew 24:22–25). We all share a common concern in wanting to know about the participants, the chronology, and the geography of those prophecies. To comprehend the full knowledge of them it is obvious that all relevant statements of our Lord and His apostles must be properly interpreted and placed in a coherent order. Many Christians have attempted to do this. As a consequence, the doctrine of the Rapture has arisen. So important has it become to many that the teaching is now sanctioned in some circles as the prime revelation from God to show what will happen to members of His ekklesia just before and during the Second Coming of Christ. Some of the greatest friends of the Holy Scriptures have accepted this teaching (and they teach this false doctrine even by mistranslating the phrase “first resurrection” as “the former resurrection” in Revelation 20:5)."

"text": "George Washington, Genius in Leadership By Richard C. Stazesky A presentation made by the Reverend Richard C. Stazesky at a meeting on February 22, 2000 of The George Washington Club, Ltd., Wilmington, Delaware. I. Introduction Why did George Washington emerge as the most significant leader in the founding of the United States of America, even to the extent of being called the Father of the Country? This is a question that inevitably arises in the mind of anyone who studies, even on a casual basis, the founding of our nation. Washington lived and worked with brilliant philosophers, thinkers, writers, orators and organizers, such as Franklin, Mason, John and Sam Adams, Jefferson, Patrick Henry, Hamilton, Madison, Dickinson, the Randolphs and the Lees, almost all of whom were far better educated than he. Yet at the three major junctions in the founding of the nation, the Revolution, the Constitutional Convention and the selection of the first President, for each position the leader chosen was George Washington. In his own day he was seen as the indispensable man, the American Moses, The Father of the Country. Why? His contemporaries and subsequent commentators have enumerated many factors that entered into the selection by his peers for these three strategically important positions: physical size and presence, charisma, energy, multi-faceted experiences, charm, courage, character, temperament, being a Virginian, wealth, ambition, his reputation as a stalwart patriot and, especially after the Revolution, the regard, admiration and affection of the populace at all levels of society. The most commonly cited characteristic given for his emergence as the supreme leader is his character. The most infrequently cited, as far as I have observed, are his intelligence and his ideas."

It does have molars at the back of the jaw too. The front incisors grow continuously as they are worn down by gnawing. the back of the tooth is a little softer than the front, so that the tooth automatically sharpens itself as it wears down. A rabbit or hare looks like a rodent and the incisors grow continuously like a rodent's teeth, but if you look carefully you can see that it has 6 front incisors instead of 4. Rabbits and hares are pretty close to rodents, and are often lumped in with rodents. Rodents include rats, mice squirrels, hamsters, gophers, beavers, guinea pigs, and the largest rodent, the 150 pound capybara which like a cross between a sheep and a giant guinea pig with webbed feet, and can stand on the bottom of the river, holding its breath for many minutes at a time.. I notice that a lot of people class moles, weasels, and other small predators as rodents when they are nothing like it. They have pointy canine teeth, not big incisors."

Their common name is from the French words, porc espin , meaning thorny hog, which refers to the animal's famous quills. The scientific name, Erethizon means \"\"arouse\"\" in Greek, and is a reference to the species' reputation for being irritable. Dorsatum is Latin for back. The Lakota word for porcupine, \"\"pahin, \"\" also means quill. These heavyset animals weigh about 15 pounds (7 kg), the size of a very large house cat. Large males can weigh up to 30 pounds (13.6 kg). Their total length ranges from 25.5 to 36.5 inches (64.8-93.0 cm) with a 6 to 11 inch (15-28 cm) tail. They have four toes on their front feet, five toes on their hind feet, and strong, curved claws. Although porcupines are most known for their quills, quills are only one of the three kinds of hair that porcupines have - underfur, guard hairs and quills."

The needle-sharp spikes on the \"\"quill pig\"\", as the porcupine is known in Latin, can be up to 30 centimeters long. Contrary to once common belief, they cannot actually shoot their quills in self-defense, but they do detach easily as a means of countering predators away. Fortunately for the mother, the quills are soft when the animals are first born, but harden within just a few days. Their design, which includes overlapping barbs, makes them difficult and painful to remove. Porcupines grow new quills if they have to lose some in order to avoid becoming dinner, but they don't go short in the meantime, as a single animal can have as many as 30,000 prickles. Their own tastes are modest, and depending on the species, include a predilection for bark and stems, fruit, leaves and spring buds. North and South American porcupines are particularly good climbers and spend a lot of their time up trees. They are not terribly sociable animals, and spend a lot of time foraging alone.

The newborns are currently on show in the enclosure they share with a trio of inquisitive Dwarf Mongooses. According to Cotswold staff, the twins are perfect miniature versions of the adults, even born with a full set of quills, which begs the question visitors have been keen to ask keepers: “How does the female give birth without injury?” After a gestation period of approximately one hundred and twelve days (the longest gestation period of any rodent), the female gives birth to offspring covered in soft, moist and flexible quills, enclosed in a thin placental sac. Immediately after birth, the quills quickly harden in the air and become prickly. The babies, also known as Porcupettes, are also born relatively well developed, with eyes open and teeth present.

The family has two other pets, Sassy, a very feminine and snobby Himalayan cat, and Shadow, a mature Golden Retriever. The three pets are companions to the family's daughter and two sons. The children's mother, a widow, has just married their new dad and the entire household must adapt to new circumstances. Part of their adjustment means a temporary move to a small apartment in the city. Because their move will be for only a few months, arrangements have been made for their pets to stay on the farm of a friend during the interim. The children object to the separation from their pets but accompany their parents on the sad ride through the mountains to the friends' farm.

Old World porcupines live in Europe, Africa, and Asia; some examples are the North African crested porcupine, African brush-tailed porcupine, and Indian crested porcupine. New World porcupines live in North, Central, and South America; some examples are the Canadian porcupine, Mexican hairy dwarf porcupine, and Brazilian porcupine. All porcupines are nocturnal and quite adaptable, found in a variety of habitats, as long as there is vegetation. There are a few differences between the Old World and New World species: Old World crested porcupineshave back quills that can stand up into a crest (like a Mohawk hairdo). The crest starts from the top of the head and goes down to the shoulders. They display their weaponry for all to see. Each quill is marked with black and white bands. Some quills can be up to 20 inches (51 centimeters) long. These long, pliable quills act as guard hairs and form a \"\"skirt.\"\""

Porcupines have around 30,000 quills, mostly on their backs and rumps. The longest quills are near the tail and the shortest are on their cheeks. The quills are stiff and sharp with very tiny barbs on the tips. These barbs make them difficult for other animals to remove after they have been attacked. The quills are surrounded by long guard hairs which can be dark brown to pale yellow or grey. Porcupines have wooly underfur, and do not have quills on their undersides. Porcupines grow to a size of 23 to 51 inches. Their tails can be from 7 to 10 inches in length. Adult porcupines weigh from 8 to 40 pounds."

"text": "\"Feature Film Illumination Announces ‘Sing’ With 85 Songs and Matthew Mc Conaughey As A Koala By Amid Amidi | 11/13/2015 11:58 am | 362016 is shaping up to be the year of the animated animal. At least a half-dozen movies with predominantly animal casts are scheduled for release including Kung Fu Panda 3, Nut Job 2, Zootopia, Angry Birds, Finding Dory, and The Secret Life of Pets. Minions maker Illumination, which is already releasing the latter film on this list, has now announced details about a second animal-centric film that it’ll deliver into theaters on December 21, 2016: Sing. Of all the animal kingdom films, Sing might be the quirkiest of the bunch. Illumination founder and CEO Chris Meledandri explained during an Annecy keynote earlier this year that conceptually “the starting point for the movie was, for me at least, looking at what the role of a producer is. ”The Songs of 'Sing': A Complete List of Every Song in Illumination’s ‘Sing’The producer in Sing will be a koala named Buster Moon, voiced by Matthew Mc Conaughey, who runs a vaudeville-style theater. “ He creates wonderful entertainment out of nothing,” Meledandri said at Annecy. “ It’s what a producer does: you start with nothing, and you imagine a story, a play, a musical, a short, and you try to figure out how you can will it into existence. ”If a paean to producers sounds like an unusual topic for an animated film, so does the fact that the movie will have over 85 songs in it. Here’s the set-up which allows that to happen: Buster’s theater has fallen on hard times, and he comes up with an idea to save it by staging a singing competition."

"text": "\"Share Google Stumble Twitter Click Share This on Facebook52SHARESPorcupines, like monkeys, are divided into old world and new world species. They are very peaceful yet territorial rodents and may become offensive when threatened. Still you will find them adorable at the first look and you might want to cuddle them. But don’t be mistaken as they have quills that will lodge inside your skin. This unique feature of porcupines keeps them apart from other rodents like mice, possum, and alike. You can differentiate a porcupine from other rodents just by its quills. These quills protect the porcupine from predators. These rodents are classified into two families: hystricidae family, which has 11 old world species and erethizontidae family, which has 12 new world species. The only difference between the two types is of size and weight, wherein former tends to be larger and latter tends to be smaller and weigh lesser. Porcupines come in different shapes, sizes and colours."

"text": "Answers.com ® Wiki Answers ® Categories Animal Life Mammals Land Mammals Rodents Porcupines Do porcupines throw their quills? Flag Do porcupines throw their quills? Answer by Rahyell Young Confidence votes 179Porcupines can not shoot their quills or even throw them at will. Although it is commonly believed that when a porcupine feels under threat, they will fire their quills, puncturing the approaching animal, it is in fact a fallacy. Porcupines are not able to deliberately throw their quills at will and can defiantly not aim and fire. It is thought that the idea of Porcupines fire quill at enemies comes from the way in which they defend them selves. When a porcupine is threatened they will shake their quills rapidly and run backwards. This action creates a very load noise, similar to a lions roar, and frightens away the predator, but during the shaking action it has been known for a few quills to come loose. These either fall to the ground, or on very exceptional occasions may stick into the predators. This only happens very rarely and under normal circumstances the porcupine cannot do any harm to a predator that stays out of reach.31 people found this useful Was this answer useful?"

"text": "Porcupine, any of 25 species of large, herbivorous, quill-bearing rodents active from early evening to dawn. All have short, stocky legs, but their tails range from short to long, with some being prehensile. The quills, or spines, take various forms depending on the species, but all are modified hairs embedded in skin musculature. Old World porcupines (Hystricidae) have quills embedded in clusters, whereas in New World porcupines (Erethizontidae) single quills are interspersed with bristles, underfur, and hair. No porcupine can throw its quills, but they detach easily and will remain embedded in an attacker. Base coloration ranges from grayish brown through dark brown to blackish, but this colouring is overlaid by variegated patterns of white, yellow, orange, or black due to bands on the spines. North American porcupine ( Erethizon dorsatum ). Encyclopædia Britannica, Inc. New World porcupines (family Erethizontidae)The North American porcupine ( Erethizon dorsatum) is the largest species in the family, usually weighing less than 7 kg (15.4 pounds) though males occasionally grow significantly larger. Its body is up to 80 cm (31 inches) long, with a tail up to 30 cm. Both are covered with a total of 30,000 or more hollow quills."

"text": "What are the top ten most expensive big bikes at the start of 2018? As fast as the world is diving headlong to a massive sea of upheavals, a lot has also changed since we last featured the top ten most expensive big motor bikes in the world. For one thing, the new lowest entry at number 10 clocks at almost a hundred and thirty grand more than its predecessor, while the 1 million dollar tag price of the previous number one, the highly regarded Cosmic Starship by Harley Davidson seems “paltry” now compared to the latest title holder, Neiman Marcus Limited Edition Fighter, which clips the bar at an awesome 11 million dollar mark. What makes this doubly amazing is that Neiman Marcus Limited Edition Fighter started life at $110,000 before its ultra unique design caught the fancy of a lot of people and consequently sent its market price rocketing to the stratosphere. Is this a clear sign of things to come? Not by any chance, and as any economist would tell you, predicting trends is as unwieldy as relying on a crystal ball to ascertain the future. What hasn’t changed, though, is that these two-wheeled metallic steeds still do not fail to capture the hearts and attention of many men the same way that their flesh and blood ancient counterparts easily became the subject of passion of men like Genghis Khan, Alexander the Great, or Napoleon Bonaparte. If you’re wondering why men buy expensive bikes, never mind any of these rides on our list, just the normal pricey Harley, maybe divorce has something to do with it? Few in this generation will remember Dean and Brando galloping around with these modern-day beasts. In fact, millennials are slow to adopt their father’s (and grandfather’s) love,but, who knows, the same men when they grow older may catch on the spirit of primeval mystique about these iconic symbols of uber manliness and coolness."

It contains a subject and a predicate that together express a complete thought. An independent clause is also called a “main clause” because it contains a sentence’s main idea, and as the main part, it isn’t “dependent” on other clauses to make sense. But, a dependent clause relies on an independent clause to make a full sentence. That means that all sentences need an independent clause—no sentence can be complete without one!2.

Rather, today’s topic is about predicates in Extended Events. You can find a brief description of predicates in Using SQL Server 2008 Extended Events (by Jonathan Kehayias) so I’ll try to extend your knowledge a bit beyond what that says. Pre versus Post processing There is usually more than one way to accomplish almost everything so it’s worth taking a moment to consider two different ways to process and event log. Post-processing describes the case where you allow the tracing system to collect every event and then you worry about reducing your data set after you’ve collected the data. Support for this doesn’t really depend on the diagnostic system you use since you can post-process any log that you can get into a tool that supports filtering, for example Excel. Some diagnostic systems have built in tools to do this as well. Pre-processing is when the filtering of events happens as part of the event generation code and therefore can “short-circuit” the event from firing. Extended Events support this type of pre-processing and that is what a Predicate if for. Pre-processing has some cost associated with evaluating the predicate which is why some diagnostic systems choose not to offer this functionality, ETW is an example of a diagnostic system that does not support pre-processing of events. Aside: Some ETW gurus (I don’t claim to be one) may argue that ETW does support pre-processing because you have the ability to define which events are collected based on Channel, Keyword and Level."

Anything that partakes in being is also called a \"\"being\"\", though often this usage is limited to entities that have subjectivity (as in the expression \"\" human being \"\"). The notion of \"\"being\"\" has, inevitably, been elusive and controversial in the history of philosophy, beginning in Western philosophy with attempts among the pre-Socratics to deploy it intelligibly. As an example of efforts in recent times, Martin Heidegger (who himself drew on ancient Greek sources) adopted after German terms like Dasein to articulate the topic. [ 1] Several modern approaches build on such continental European exemplars as Heidegger, and apply metaphysical results to the understanding of human psychology and the human condition generally (notably in the Existentialist tradition)."

In its earliest form, defined by Aristotle, from the combination of a general statement (the major premise) and a specific statement (the minor premise), a conclusion is deduced. For example, knowing that all men are mortal (major premise) and that Socrates is a man (minor premise), we may validly conclude that Socrates is mortal. Syllogistic arguments are usually represented in a three-line form: All men are mortal. Socrates is a man. Therefore, Socrates is mortal.

Disregarding functions depending on side effects, there are two nullary functions (without arguments).public static class Predicate {Func < bool > True () {return () => true;}Func < bool > False () {return () => false;}}Listing 1: Nullary predicate functions It is rare to need these functions in C#, but I sometimes use them when combining functions. I used methods rather than properties since the same function exists in other arities (number of arguments). You can create a single delegate that takes any number of parameters using the params keyword, but its usage is limited since the arguments must be the same type. The best way to obtain True or False predicates with different shapes is through method overloading.public static Func <T, bool > True <T> () {return a => true;}public static Func <T, T2, bool > True <T, T2> () {return ( a, b) => true;}Listing 2: Predicates with a fixed return value Composing Predicates I'm going to define two predicates specifying a particular rule for an Employee class. Func < Employee, bool > is Active Employee = e => e. Date Fired == null;Func < Employee, bool > is New Employee = e => e. Date Hired >= Date Time. Today. Add Days (-90);Listing 3: Predicates accepting an Employee instance If you're using LINQ to filter a list of employees by both of these functions, there are a few ways to approach it. One should avoid writing another function containing the logic of the other functions since code duplication is difficult to maintain."

"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.

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.”"

Contents Logic Aristotelean logic The predicate calculus Foundations of mathematics The geometry of Euclid Formal theories for mathematics Philosophy of mathematics Plato and Aristotle The 20th century The future Bibliography Logic Logic is the science of formal principles of reasoning or correct inference. Historically, logic originated with the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle. Logic was further developed and systematized by the Stoics and by the medieval scholastic philosophers. In the late 19th and 20th centuries, logic saw explosive growth, which has continued up to the present. One may ask whether logic is part of philosophy or independent of it. According to Bochenski [ 2, §10B], this issue is nowhere explicitly raised in the writings of Aristotle. However, Aristotle did go to great pains to formulate the basic concepts of logic (terms, premises, syllogisms, etc.)"

"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."

Abbreviated Truth Table In constructing a reverse truth table, assume that all the premises are true and the conclusion is false, then consistently assign truth values to the components in an attempt to show that your assumption is correct. If the argument is invalid, this method allows you to construct one line of a truth table that demonstrates the invalidity. If the argument is valid, it is impossible consistently to assign truth values on the assumption that the argument is invalid. Absorption (Abs.) In propositional logic, absorption is a rule of inference in which a conditional statement is given as a premise; you conclude a conditional statement with the same antecedent, and the consequent is a conjunction of the antecedent and consequent of the given proposition. The form of the rule is: p → q ⊢ p → (p · q)Accent The fallacy of accent rests upon the ways in which you emphasize the words in a statement or by quoting passages out of context.

"text": "Propositions First published Mon Dec 19, 2005; substantive revision Thu Jan 25, 2018The term ‘proposition’ has a broad use in contemporary philosophy. It is used to refer to some or all of the following: the primary bearers of truth-value, the objects of belief and other “propositional attitudes” (i.e., what is believed, doubted, etc. [ 1] ), the referents of that -clauses, and the meanings of sentences. One might wonder whether a single class of entities can play all these roles. If David Lewis (1986, p. 54) is right in saying that “the conception we associate with the word ‘proposition’ may be something of a jumble of conflicting desiderata ,” then it will be impossible to capture our conception in a consistent definition. The best way to proceed, when dealing with quasi-technical words like ‘proposition’, may be to stipulate a definition and proceed with caution, making sure not to close off any substantive issues by definitional fiat. Propositions, we shall say, are the sharable objects of the attitudes and the primary bearers of truth and falsity. This stipulation rules out certain candidates for propositions, including thought- and utterance-tokens, which presumably are not sharable, and concrete events or facts, which presumably cannot be false. These consequences fit well with contemporary usage. Our definition leaves open many of the questions dividing propositionalists: which additional roles are propositions fit to play?"

Frege essentially reconceived the discipline of logic by constructing a formal system which, in effect, constituted the first ‘predicate calculus’. In this formal system, Frege developed an analysis of quantified statements and formalized the notion of a ‘proof’ in terms that are still accepted today. Frege then demonstrated that one could use his system to resolve theoretical mathematical statements in terms of simpler logical and mathematical notions. One of the axioms that Frege later added to his system, in the attempt to derive significant parts of mathematics from logic, proved to be inconsistent. Nevertheless, his definitions (e.g., of the predecessor relation and of the concept of natural number) and methods (e.g., for deriving the axioms of number theory) constituted a significant advance. To ground his views about the relationship of logic and mathematics, Frege conceived a comprehensive philosophy of language that many philosophers still find insightful. However, his lifelong project, of showing that mathematics was reducible to logic, was not successful.1. Frege's Life and Influences2.

As the name implies they are used to compare two voltages. When one is higher than the other the comparator circuit output is in one state, and when the input conditions are reversed, then the comparator output switches. These circuits find many uses as detectors. They are often used to sense voltages. For example they could have a reference voltage on one input, and a voltage that is being detected on another."

A year later, Harwick Johnson filed a patent for a prototype integrated circuit (IC). These ideas could not be implemented by the industry in the early 1950s, but a breakthrough came in late 1958. Three people from three U. S. companies solved three fundamental problems that hindered the production of integrated circuits. Jack Kilby of Texas Instruments patented the principle of integration, created the first prototype ICs and commercialized them. Kurt Lehovec of Sprague Electric Company invented a way to electrically isolate components on a semiconductor crystal. Robert Noyce of Fairchild Semiconductor invented a way to connect the IC components (aluminium metallization) and proposed an improved version of insulation based on the planar technology by Jean Hoerni. On September 27, 1960, using the ideas of Noyce and Hoerni, a group of Jay Last 's at Fairchild Semiconductor created the first operational semiconductor IC. Texas Instruments, which held the patent for Kilby's invention, started a patent war, which was settled in 1966 by the agreement on cross-licensing. There is no consensus on who invented the IC."

Computers, on the other hand, perform calculations automatically by following a series of built-in commands called software. In the 20 th century breakthroughs in technology allowed for the ever-evolving computing machines we see today. But even prior to the advent of microprocessors and supercomputers, there were certain notable scientists and inventors that helped lay the groundwork for a technology that has since drastically reshaped our lives. The Language Before the Hardware The universal language in which computers carry out processor instructions originated in 17 th century in the form of the binary numerical system. Developed by German philosopher and mathematician Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, the system came about as a way to represent decimal numbers using only two digits, the number zero and the number one. His system was partly inspired by philosophical explanations in the classical Chinese text the “I Ching,” which understood the universe in terms of dualities such as light and darkness and male and female. While there was no practical use for his newly codified system at the time, Leibniz believed that it was possible for a machine to someday make use of these long strings of binary numbers. In 1847, English mathematician George Boole introduced a newly devised algebraic language built on Leibniz work."

"text": "Difference between Bitwsie and Logical Operator in Java - & vs &&, | vs ||Java beginners often ask same type of questions, and of them is what is difference between & and && operator in Java or difference between | and || operators? Standard answer of this question is well, main difference between & and && is that former is a bitwise operator and && is a logical operator in Java. That's academic, until you clearly explains difference in working of & and && or | and ||. For absolute beginners, & is used to represent AND logic operation in Java and | is used to represent OR logic operation. If we use only one & or | then it's known as “bitwise AND” and bitwise OR operators and if we use double && or || then it's known as logical or short-circuit AND and OR operators. From name, you can guess bitwise operates at bit level and perform AND logical operation to each bit, while logical operators operate on boolean variables only. Main difference lies in there short circuit behavior, which means if there are two or more conditions, which are joined using && or || operator then not all conditions are tested as soon as you have enough data to determine result. For example in case of AND operation involving multiple condition, rest are not checked as soon as one of them becomes false, because result will always be false. Similarly in case of OR short circuit operator ||, remaining conditions are not executed if one of them is true, because as soon as one operand becomes true, result of operation will be true, regardless of result of remaining condition. This short circuit nature is another reason, why logical operators are also known as short-circuit operator. In order to solve programming problems e.g. how to count number of set bits or 1s on Integer, good understanding of bitwise operator is required."

"text": "\"Introduction to CMOS Image Sensors The arrival of high-resolution solid state imaging devices, primarily charge-coupled devices ( CCDs) and complementary metal oxide semiconductor ( CMOS) image sensors, has heralded a new era for optical microscopy that threatens to eclipse traditional image recording technology, such as film, video tubes, and photomultipliers. Charge-coupled device camera systems designed specifically for microscopy applications are offered by numerous original equipment and aftermarket manufacturers, and CMOS imaging sensors are now becoming available for a few microscopes. Both technologies were developed between the early and late 1970s, but CMOS sensors had unacceptable performance and were generally overlooked or considered just a curiosity until the early 1990s. By that time, advances in CMOS design were yielding chips with smaller pixel sizes, reduced noise, more capable image processing algorithms, and larger imaging arrays. Among the major advantages enjoyed by CMOS sensors are their low power consumption, master clock, and single-voltage power supply, unlike CCDs that often require 5 or more supply voltages at different clock speeds with significantly higher power consumption. Both CMOS and CCD chips sense light through similar mechanisms, by taking advantage of the photoelectric effect, which occurs when photons interact with crystallized silicon to promote electrons from the valence band into the conduction band. Note that the term \"\"CMOS\"\" refers to the process by which the image sensor is manufactured and not to a specific imaging technology. When a broad wavelength band of visible light is incident on specially doped silicon semiconductor materials, a variable number of electrons are released in proportion to the photon flux density incident on the surface of a photodiode. In effect, the number of electrons produced is a function of the wavelength and the intensity of light striking the semiconductor. Electrons are collected in a potential well until the integration (illumination) period is finished, and then they are either converted into a voltage (CMOS processors) or transferred to a metering register (CCD sensors)."

An electronic component is any basic discrete device or physical entity in an electronic system used to affect electrons or their associated fields. Electronic components are mostly industrial products, available in a singular form and are not to be confused with electrical elements, which are conceptual abstractions representing idealized electronic components. Electronic components have a number of electrical terminals or leads. These leads connect to create an electronic circuit with a particular function (for example an amplifier, radio receiver, or oscillator ). Basic electronic components may be packaged discretely, as arrays or networks of like components, or integrated inside of packages such as semiconductor integrated circuits, hybrid integrated circuits, or thick film devices.

Pipe is controlled by a valve which can open or close, thus controlling whether the water is going through the pipe or not. This is how MOSFETs are used as switches to control the flow of current and this is how the digital electronics is built. You can imagine using several of these pipes to implement NOR, NAND, XOR operations etc. which can then be combined to give additions, subtractions, multiplications etc. This is the basis of a basic computer. Now, there is one more interesting property of the pipe. The valve when operated in a certain region, can not only control whether the water flows or not, but rather decide 'the shape' of the water as well. Hence, a small little valve can control a 'huge' amount of water. This is the basis of amplification and analog electronics."

It is composed of semiconductor material usually with at least three terminals for connection to an external circuit. A voltage or current applied to one pair of the transistor's terminals controls the current through another pair of terminals. Because the controlled (output) power can be higher than the controlling (input) power, a transistor can amplify a signal. Today, some transistors are packaged individually, but many more are found embedded in integrated circuits. The transistor is the fundamental building block of modern electronic devices, and is ubiquitous in modern electronic systems.

The circuits are formed by a thin layer of conducting material deposited, or \"\"printed,\"\" on the surface of an insulating board known as the substrate. Individual electronic components are placed on the surface of the substrate and soldered to the interconnecting circuits. Contact fingers along one or more edges of the substrate act as connectors to other PCBs or to external electrical devices such as on-off switches. A Printed Circuit Board may have circuits that perform a single function, such as a signal amplifier, or multiple functions. And on the other hand PCBA or, Printed Circuit Board Assembly is the board obtained after all printing solder paste on the PCB and then mounting various components like resistors, Integrated Circuits, capacitors and any other components like transformers depending on the application and desired characteristics of the board.

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Simulated eye diagram dislplaying a DDR3 signal waveform Signal integrity or SI is a set of measures of the quality of an electrical signal. In digital electronics, a stream of binary values is represented by a voltage (or current) waveform. However, digital signals are fundamentally analog in nature, and all signals are subject to effects such as noise, distortion, and loss. Over short distances and at low bit rates, a simple conductor can transmit this with sufficient fidelity. At high bit rates and over longer distances or through various mediums, various effects can degrade the electrical signal to the point where errors occur and the system or device fails. Signal integrity engineering is the task of analyzing and mitigating these effects. It is an important activity at all levels of electronics packaging and assembly, from internal connections of an integrated circuit (IC), [1] through the package, the printed circuit board (PCB), the backplane, and inter-system connections. [ 2] While there are some common themes at these various levels, there are also practical considerations, in particular the interconnect flight time versus the bit period, that cause substantial differences in the approach to signal integrity for on-chip connections versus chip-to-chip connections. Some of the main issues of concern for signal integrity are ringing, crosstalk, ground bounce, distortion, signal loss, and power supply noise.

The aortic valve has also been called the left semilunar valve and the left arterial valve and has three leaflets, or cusps: the left coronary cusp, the right coronary cusp, and the non-coronary cusp. The inlets to the coronary artery system can be found within the sinus of Valsalva, superior to the the leaflet attachments and inferior to the sinotubular junction. The left coronary ostium is found midway between the commissures of the left coronary cusp, and almost immediately branches into the anterior interventricular branch and the circumflex branch. The right coronary ostium is found above the right coronary cusp and gives rise to the right coronary artery. The final cusp is named the non-coronary cusp and is positioned posteriorly relative to the other two cusps. The mitral valve is also called the bicuspid valve and the left atrioventricular valve. As the name bicuspid valve may suggest, the mitral valve is considered to have two primary leaflets: the anterior and posterior leaflets. The anterior leaflet has also been called the septal, medial, or aortic leaflet, while the posterior leaflet is also referred to as the lateral, marginal, or mural leaflet. Each leaflet is then further broken down into scallops divided by commissures, or zones of apposition."

"text": "Heart Valves Contents Overview Anatomy Atrioventricular Valves Semilunar Valves Clinical Notes Overview The valves of the heart serve the cardiovascular system by controlling the direction of the blood flow during circulation and determining the exact moment in which the blood passes between the chambers of the heart as well as in and out of it entirely. There are two atrioventricular valves that separate the heart left and right atria from their respective ventricles and two semilunar valves which control the release of pulmonary and aortic designated blood leaving the heart. The veins also have small valves within them that help push the slower moving blood back through the tissues and into the large cardiac vessels known as the superior vena cava and inferior vena cava. Recommended video: Heart valves Overview of the heart valves and related structures. Anatomy Atrioventricular Valves The atrioventricular valves function to prevent the backflow of blood from the ventricles to the atria during cardiac systole. They attach to the ventricular walls via the chordae tendineae which in turn attach to the papillary muscles so that the cusps are held tense and don’t invert into the atria. This extended attachment of the chordae tendineae and the papillary muscles is known as the subvalvular apparatus. Mitral valve - cranial view Opening and closing of the valves is governed by the gradient pressure across the valves themselves and the first heart sound can be heard when the atrioventricular valves close. The first of the two atrioventricular valves is known as the mitral valve or the bicuspid valve, due to the fact that it is comprised of two cusps, which together look like the bishop’s hat that is called a mitre. It is situated between the left atrium and the left ventricle."

Infants with ASVDs have improperly developed atrial and ventricular septa and adjoining valves. The normal heart has four chambers. The two upper chambers, known as atria, are separated from each other by a fibrous partition called the atrial septum. The two lower chambers, known as ventricles, are separated from each other by the ventricular septum. Valves (e.g., mitral and tricuspid) connect the atria (left and right) to their respective ventricles. The valves allow for blood to be pumped through the chambers. Blood travels from the right ventricle through the pulmonary artery to the lungs where it receives oxygen. The blood returns to the heart through pulmonary veins and enters the left ventricle. The left ventricle sends the now oxygen-filled blood into the main artery of the body (aorta)."

"text": "Heart Contents Overview Borders Surfaces Atria Ventricles Arteries Veins Clinical Notes Overview The heart is a muscle that is responsible for the circulation of the blood around the entire body. It is situated in the mediastinum of the thorax, while the great vessels radiate their branches to the head and neck, the thorax and abdomen and the upper and lower limbs. It uses rhythmic electrical impulses that cause the ventricles to contract and force the blood out of the heart so that the returning blood maybe return in a circular fashion. In this article, the major anatomy of the heart will be discussed, such as the borders, surfaces, the chambers and the great vessels. A brief overview of some common pathological findings is also mentioned. Recommended video: Heart in situ Heart in situ seen from the anterior view. Borders The superior border of the heart as seen from an anterior view is made by the atria and their auricles. The larger part of the right ventricle and some of the left ventricle contribute to the inferior border. It should be noted that the heart is not a rectangle or a square with clear sides, and therefore at a certain angle some structures will be only partially visible. Heart (Cardiac apex) - ventral view The left border is marked out by the left auricle and left ventricle."

Is there a difference between the atrioventricular valves in the right side versus the left side of the heart? Is there a different between the pulmonary valves?1 following 8 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Atrioventricular valves separate the atria and ventricles. Mitral valve has 2 flaps which separates the left atria and the left ventricle, whereas tricuspid valve has 3 flaps which separates the right atria and the right ventricle. I think there's only 1 pulmonary valve, which is located between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery. Pulmonary valve and aortic valve, which lies between the left ventricle and the aorta, are two semilunar valves.welcometotherealworld · 7 years ago1 0 Comment Right Atrioventricular Valve Source (s):https://shorte.im/bbz Fptittle · 1 year ago0 0 Comment Yep - the right atrioventricular valve, also called the tricuspid, has three cusps. On the other hand, the left AV valve, also known as the mitral valve or bicuspid, has two cusps. The bicuspid can withstand more pressure than the tricuspid. Anonymous · 7 years ago0 0 Comment Nope - the atrioventricular valves always seperate the atrium and ventricle, and the pulmonary valves, at both exits to the heart, will always stop backflow into the ventricles.

"text": "\"Black Cod ( Epinephelus daemelii)Family: Serranidae\"\"The black cod is an iconic species in NSW water however can prove to be very elusive to divers\"\"The Black Cod ( Epinephelus daemelii) is a large reef dwelling cod/groper species belonging to the family Serranidae. In Australia the black cod is also known as black rockcod or saddled rock cod, and in New Zealand it is generally referred to as spotted black grouper. Black cod are somewhat similar in appearance to a number of other large Epinephelus species such as the bar cod ( Epinephelus ergastularius ), Camouflage Cod ( Epinephelus polyphekadion ), the flowery cod ( Epinephelus fuscoguttatus) and the estuary cod ( Epinephelus malabaricus ), and is sometimes confused with these and other related species. Epinephelus species are commonly referred to as 'groupers' in the United States, and in Australia they are known as 'cod' or 'groper'. Black cod are found along the entire New South Wales coast and are most common in the waters off northern NSW. A few individuals have been recorded from southern Queensland waters (e.g. off Flinders Reef) however they are considered to be uncommon in the waters off Queensland. They are also common around Elizabeth and Middleton Reefs, two offshore reefs in Commonwealth waters in the northern Tasman Sea. Black cod are also found in the northern parts of New Zealand, and are particularly common around the Kermadec Islands and Three Kings Islands, though generally rare elsewhere in New Zealand. The colour pattern of black cod is highly variable, and can change quickly from a uniform dark grey-black to a blotched or distinctively banded dark and light pattern. Young black cod often have a number of distinct black markings that tend to fade as the fish grows."

Located slightly more than 100 miles (160 km) by road from Boston, it is a summer vacation community just south of the northern tip of Cape Cod, in an area known as the \"\"Outer Cape\"\". [ 1] English colonists named it after Truro in Cornwall, United Kingdom. The historic Wampanoag Native American people called the area Pamet or Payomet. Their language was part of the large Algonquian family. This name was adopted for the Pamet River and the harbor area around the town center known as the Pamet Roads. [ 2] The population of Truro was 2,003 at the 2010 census. Over half of the land area of the town is part of the Cape Cod National Seashore, established in 1961 by President John F. Kennedy, and administered by the U. S. National Park Service.

It is funny, though, how little some visitors know about differences between some of these swimming spots. When some folks think about swimming in Cape Cod Bay, for example, they think, “oh, the water’s cold there.” Well, sometimes it is. But the fact of the matter is the water temperature in the bay can change from day to day, and it is often not as cold as some of the most popular beaches on the outer Cape. In early July, the water temperature was in the low 60s. By mid August, it could well be in the low 70s on some days. Cape Cod is in an ideal spot to get different water temperatures. Some of the most beautiful beaches are along the outside of the lower Cape like Nauset Beach in Orleans, or at the Cape Cod National Seashore in Eastham, Wellfleet, Truro and Provincetown, for example. While the waves at beaches on the outer Cape are often best for surfing, the water temperature is as low as you can find on the Cape."

Salmon nigiri T here is so much to cover when it comes to seafood as it encompasses an entire ecosystem rather than a single animal. Much of what we’ll cover will touch on all of the basic types of seafood, the properties they have, the preferred cooking methods, as well as general rules of thumb. The different types of fish listed here are the typical varieties common to most cooks. When dealing with seafood, it is important to know what kind of product we are dealing with. The term seafood can have different meanings to different people. When referring to seafood, some may refer to shellfish, or shellfish and other edible marine creatures. Some may define seafood as food that comes from saltwater shellfish, or salt water shellfish and fish. Due to this ambiguity, we will opt to not use seafood as a term in an effort to not promote confusion and we will opt for the more appropriate “fish and shellfish”. Eco-Stable Types of Fish It is the responsibility of all aspiring cooks and chefs to be a part of the solution for the dwindling number of certain types of fish and to try to source their product from ethical sources."

As a commercial fisherman, I can tell you that the local seal population has expanded rapidly over the last 10 years. When I was fishing ten, fifteen, twenty years ago, seeing a seal was a rarity. Not the case at all today. After the reading the published reports of witnesses that saw a Great White Shark eating a seal along the shore of Nauset Beach, The Hairy Beast wonders:...if more yummy, yummy seals swimming close to the beach also means more white sharks swimming after them, also close to the beach? I would imagine since both sharks and seals are now protected that their populations are growing happily together. Great White Sharks Eating Seals Video The seal population here is an issue for a number of reasons, the least of which is the shark population. With the seals now covering large areas of the outer beaches, one concern is pollution from seal waste. I have heard from boaters and fishermen that you can smell the seals from pretty far offshore when the breeze is right, or “ripe”. All these seals doing their business all over miles of shoreline cannot be very good for swimmers."

Black Cod is a domestic American fish which we procure as a valuable additional offering alongside our New Zealand species. Interestingly it is not a cod at all, but in fact a sablefish, and the color can range from black to a dark mottled green or gray. The fish is sleek-looking, and has ivory-white fillets with a velvety texture and buttery taste which is absolutely incomparable in the world of aquatic edibles. It is super-loaded with great tasting and healthy omega-3 fatty acids. Black Cod inhabits waters from northern Mexico to the Gulf of Alaska, all the way to the Aleutian Islands and Bering Strait but is most abundant in Alaska. These fish normally live above mud bottoms of 600+ feet, but are also known to dwell much deeper than this. Due to the high oil content of Black Cod, it can sometimes be softer than, for example, the dense-fleshed swordfish or halibut."

Alaska pollock was long put in its own genus Theragra and classified Theragra chalcogramma, but more recent research has shown it is rather closely related to the Atlantic cod and should be moved back to genus Gadus in which it was originally described. [ 2] [3] Furthermore, Norwegian pollock ( Theragra finnmarchica ), a rare fish of Norwegian waters, is likely the same species as the Alaska pollock.

[ 5] They are a relatively fast-growing and short-lived species, currently representing a major biological component of the Bering Sea ecosystem. [ 1] It has been found that catches of Alaska pollock go up three years after stormy summers. The storms stir up nutrients, and this results in phytoplankton being plentiful for longer, which in turn allows more pollock hatchlings to survive. [ 6] The Alaska pollock has well-developed drumming muscles [7] that the fish use to produce sounds during courtship, like many other gadids. ["

Of all the fish that is landed by the Budding Rose who sails out of Peterhead in Scotland, and then bought and carefully prepared (skinned, boned and filleted, as well as smoked) by John at Delish Fish, my favourite fish by far is the humble hake. Hake: Photo BBCHake are deep-sea members of the cod family and are popular throughout Europe and America. Hake is quite a mild fish, with a white flaky texture and a flavour that is more subtle than that of cod. The flesh when raw is naturally very soft, but when cooked it becomes firm and meaty. In France, hake is called ‘saumon blanc’ (which translates as ‘white salmon’), but whatever the name, I LOVE it. It’s a perfect fish for children, as it is mild and not overly “fishy” in flavour; it is easy to cook, can be poached, fried, roast, steamed, curried or thrown in a pie."

"text": "\"The Cape Cod House By Joffre Essley The Cape Cod house remains a popular style, but it is fair to say that there are a lot more houses that are called a Cape Cod than there are actual Cape Cods. I began my introduction to my House Styles section by telling a story about a realtor who called almost every house she promoted a “Cape Cod”. Under this heading she dumped just about anything in a certain price range. Shingle, shutters, and shape give this away as a Cape Cod house This article will explore what characteristics define the Cape Cod house and why it developed the way it did. Along the way I will give you some advice on separating the true Cape Cod houses from the fakes. Some of these “fakes” are fine and beautiful houses, but if a term gets misused it loses its meaning. This article is an attempt to right that wrong and to confirm the Cape Cod house in its rightful place in the pantheon of home styles. The Origins The Cape Cod home is a colonial adaptation of a very simple European post-and-beam home. Originally the homes were identical to their Old World cousins, but the practical realities of life on Cape Cod produced changes and formed the Cape Cod style. First of all it has a simple hall and parlor layout."

"text": "Cod Fish Cakes May 15, 2013 By Martha 2 Comments Pin 3K Share65 Tweet +1 2 Stumble Yum 513KLiving along the coast of Massachusetts, we are fortunate that we have access to affordable fresh fish, so we eat seafood often. In particular, we eat a lot of cod – it’s a versatile fish with a mild flavor and firm but flaky white flesh – and it’s perfect for recipes like our Cod Fish Cakes!These cod fish cakes are lightly golden on the outside, and tender and flaky on the inside. They make a delicious meal as is but are traditionally served with Boston baked beans and coleslaw. If fresh cod isn’t available in your area, this recipe can also be made using salted cod . In fact, the traditional New England recipe that has been around for generations calls for salted cod, so in the recipe below, we’ve provided instructions for making these delicious cod fish cakes with either fresh or salted cod. If you make these cod fish cakes with salted cod, just be sure to take the proper steps to rehydrate the fish and even more importantly, removing the salt! Otherwise, your cod fish cakes will taste much too salty. Cod Fish Cakes Prep Time: 60 hours Cook Time: 30 mins Yield: 14 fish cakes Print Recipe Pin Recipe Description If you use fresh cod for this recipe, you will need to add salt to the recipe since using salted cod does not require any additional salt. Once you have the finished cod batter, fry a tiny bit up in a pan and adjust the salt as needed before you form into patties and freeze. Ingredients For the fish cakes:1 ½ pounds rehydrated salted cod (or fresh cod)1 gallon of milk (if using salted cod)1 pound russet potato peeled4 tablespoons unsalted butter1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil1 cup diced sweet onion such as vidalia½ cup diced celery2 garlic cloves minced2 eggs2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley1 cup heavy cream½ cup potato flakes (dry mashed potato mix)Few shakes Tabasco¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper Salt to taste (if using fresh cod)For the breading and frying:2 cups corn flour (if you can’t find corn flour, substitute fish fry mix, which is seasoned corn flour or use regular flour if neither are available)3 eggs1/3 cup milk2 cups bread crumbs Vegetable oil for frying Lemon for garnish Instructions If you are using salted cod instead of fresh, rinse all visible salt off the fish and rinse again for several minutes."

If you wipe the aesthetics, almost every map breaks down to 3 lanes or \"\"chokes\"\", a left, a right, and a center. The majority of the tactical decisions in these games revolve around knowing which of these lanes the opponents are favoring at the moment, and positioning yourself at an appropriate choke or on high ground. The side chokes are typically covered while the center is exposed, to encourage flanking opportunities if the other team does not react to a concentrated push up a side lane. World at War had tons of maps (Cliffside notwithstanding) that were genuine real world environments, just CHAOS. This is not necessarily better for game balance, since the three lane approach distributes traffic across the map and provides easy alternative routes. But it was definitely more fun. COD4 was the same way. I think old school COD players (myself included) look back at COD4 as the best Call of Duty game."

"text": "Pain Below Breastbone (Under, Behind Sternum) Causes, Symptoms Posted by Dr. Chris Tweet Any pain in the chest area, whether high up or lower down, slightly to the left or right of the midline, is naturally a cause for concern especially among adults. Considering that the vital organs like the heart and lungs are located here, breastbone pain is usually taken seriously. For some people like those who are obese, have a history of heart disease and smoke heavily, the concern is much greater. However, it is important to note that the abdomen starts much higher than most of us realize. Pain lower down in the chest area may actually be abdominal pain. What region is under the lower breastbone? The breastbone is the central bone of the chest cavity, lying on its anterior (front) wall. It serves as a point where ribs and the collarbones on either side can attach and also protects important vital organs like the heart. The top part of the breastbone is known as the manubrium, which attaches to a long body and ends with a sharp almost triangular portion known as the xiphoid process. The medical term for pain behind the breast bone is retrosternal pain."

"text": "Causes of Breast Bone Pain (Sternum)Posted by Dr. Chris Tweet The breast bone, also known as the sternum, is a flat bone located in the middle of the thorax (chest) and serves two important functions in the body. Firstly, the breast bone protects the vital organs lying behind it, primarily the heart and airways, and secondly, it serves as a central point where the ribs and shoulder bones (clavicle) connect and articulate. The breast bone can be divided into three distinct parts : Manubrium Body Xiphoid process Breast bone pain is a common symptom that is experienced at frequent intervals in life and may be harmless in most cases. However, persistent pain or pain that is increasing in intensity or frequency, should be investigated by a medical doctor. Breast bone pain is usually experienced and described as pain in the bone, under the breast bone or to the side of the bone. Pain may range from sharp and stabbing sensations to mild soreness or a bruised feeling. In some cases there are reports of a popping sternum which is a clicking or cracking noise from the breastbone joints that may be present along with pain, tenderness and swelling. Although referred to as the breast bone, the sternum does not lie under the breast but rather in between the breast, extending above (manubrium) and through the cleavage in women. Causes of Breast Bone Pain Heartburn or reflux is the most common cause of a burning pain along and under the breast bone as a result of esophagitis. Gastroesophageal reflux (GERD) may also result in episodes of severe sharp pains in the chest and is often mistaken for a myocardial infarction (heart attack) during these episodes."

Stage 0Stage IStage IIStage IIIStage IVTNM staging system Understanding Breast Cancer Stages Your pathology report will include information about the stage of the breast cancer — that is, whether it is limited to one area in the breast, or it has spread to healthy tissues inside the breast or to other parts of the body. Your doctor will begin to determine this during surgery to remove the cancer and look at one or more of the underarm lymph nodes, which is where breast cancer tends to travel first. He or she also may order additional blood tests or imaging tests if there is reason to believe the cancer might have spread beyond the breast. Cancer stage is based on four characteristics:the size of the cancerwhether the cancer is invasive or non-invasivewhether cancer is in the lymph nodeswhether the cancer has spread to other parts of the body beyond the breast You also may see or hear certain words used to describe the stage of the breast cancer: Local: The cancer is confined within the breast. Regional: The lymph nodes, primarily those in the armpit, are involved. Distant: The cancer is found in other parts of the body as well. Sometimes doctors use the term “locally advanced” or “regionally advanced” to refer to large tumors that involve the breast skin, underlying chest structures, changes to the breast's shape, and lymph node enlargement that is visible or that your doctor can feel during an exam. The stage of the breast cancer can help you and your doctor understand your prognosis (the most likely outcome of the disease) and make decisions about treatment, along with all of the other results in your pathology report. Cancer stage also gives everyone a common way to describe the breast cancer, so that the results of your treatment can be compared and understood relative to that of other people."

However, there is no standard therapy for all myasthenics and there is still much to learn about MG – how it is diagnosed and how it is treated. As is usual with all things myasthenic, the success of one treatment over another is really dependant on the patient. What works for one person, may not work at all for another. And what works for one body part in a patient, may not work for another body part. A doctor may experiment with various therapies and prescription levels to achieve relief from myasthenic symptoms for the patient. There is no one recipe for all situations, so the choice of treatment for an individual patient requires judgment and experience. Patients and their doctors are often required to make decisions even when the evidence is inconclusive. Patients need all the support which doctors, family and friends can offer."

Pain under the left rib cage can arise from any organ in the left upper abdomen or chest, spine, or the left ribs themselves. In otherwise healthy people, spleen irritation and gas built in the colon are main causes of pain under the lower left ribs. Pain can be also psychological, for example from neurotic heart, but physical causes have to be excluded first. Spleen Irritation During or after running, walking or other physical activities, irritation of the spleen capsule can cause side pain under the lower left ribs. Pain usually goes away after some rest. Gas in the Colon – Splenic Flexure Syndrome Gas trapped in the bend of the colon lying near the spleen (splenic flexure) can cause pain in the left upper abdomen or in the left lower chest. Other symptoms and signs of the so called splenic flexure syndrome include: Distension of the upper abdomen, which can be tender to touch or not. Drum-like sound when tapping upper abdomen with the hand Pain in the upper left abdomen when bending or twisting the upper body.

Shaken baby syndrome is a serious brain injury caused by forcefully and violently shaking a baby. Other names for this condition include abusive head trauma, shaken impact syndrome, and whiplash shake syndrome. Shaken baby syndrome is a form of child abuse that causes severe brain damage. It can result from as little as five seconds of shaking. Babies have soft brains and weak neck muscles. They also have delicate blood vessels. Shaking a baby or young child can cause their brain to repeatedly hit the inside of the skull. This impact can trigger bruising in the brain, bleeding in the brain, and brain swelling.

Surgically removing a small part of the sac lets doctors drain excess fluid from the sac. A fibrous sac called the pericardium surrounds the heart. This sac has two thin layers with a small amount of fluid in between them. The fluid helps reduce friction between the 2 layers as they rub against each other when the heart beats. In some cases, too much fluid builds up between the layers. When this happens, the heart has trouble functioning properly. A pericardial window is one method of draining excess fluid and preventing future fluid buildup. Doctors can do a pericardial window in a number of ways."

All parents, grandparents, babysitters, older siblings, daycare workers, teachers and anyone else who lives or works with children should learn how to perform CPR when disaster strikes. CPR can save a child’s life by providing the brain, heart and other organs with life-giving oxygen in the event of respiratory and/or cardiac arrest. Drowning, poisoning, accidents, smoke inhalation and SIDS are only a few of the emergencies that could result in death if not treated quickly. In this course, you will learn: The Pediatric Chain of Survival and your place within the chain How to provide high quality chest compressions for children and infants How to initiate early use of an AED (automated external defibrillator)How to provide rescue breathing for pediatric victims of respiratory arrest How to provide CPR to children and infants when there are 2 rescuers How to assist child and infant victims of choking Let’s get started!Two Rescuer CPR for Children (aged 1 year to puberty)When two rescuers are present, performing CPR on a child is the same as performing CPR on an adult, except that the compression ventilation ratio when 2 rescuers are present drops to 15:2. One or two hands may be used to compress the chest to a depth of 1/3 the diameter of the chest. Remember that compressions should be done when there is no pulse present or when the child’s heart rate is less than 60 beats a minute and there are signs of poor perfusion. Rescuers should trade off performing compressions every two minutes to avoid fatigue. CPR for Infants (up to 12 months of age)CPR for infants is similar to CPR for adults and children."

The right-hand side of your abdominal and chest area contains many vital organs. For example, your gallbladder, pancreas, and liver are on your right side protected by the ribcage in your chest. Any inflammation or infection in these organs can cause pains in your chest, upper abdomen, and back. Because your heart is located in the center of your chest towards the left-hand side, generally cardiac heart disease symptoms don’t affect the right side of your chest. In this article, I will look at the various causes of chest pain that are felt on the right side of the chest."

"text": "The Surprisingly Fast and Amazing Way to Cook Chicken Spatchcocking (aka butterflying) the bird is easy, economical, empowering—and ensures the crispiest skin ever. By Lynn Andriani Photo: Thinkstock Spatch- what? If you're stuck in a rut of boneless, skinless chicken-breast dinners, we've got one word for you (and don't laugh): Spatchcock. It's a funny name for an old-fashioned technique used to prepare poultry, also known as butterflying, in which you cut out the backbone and open the chicken like a book, so it lies flat. A foolproof way to roast or grill a whole chicken, spatchcocking also protects the meat from drying out (you don't have to worry about some parts being closer to the heat source than others). And it's great for cooks on a budget, since you pay less per pound when buying a whole chicken versus buying a bird cut into eight or 10 pieces. Spatchcocked chicken roasts in nearly half the time it takes to roast a whole chicken, says Melissa Clark in The New York Times. And it's not difficult—we promise. Photo: Lynn Andriani All You Need Is a Sharp Pair of Scissors Mindy Fox, author of The Perfectly Roasted Chicken, has been using the same pair of red-handled kitchen shears to spatchcock chickens for years, and recommends using sharp scissors over a knife; they're easier to maneuver so you can get closer to the bone (and therefore waste less meat). First, she says, place the chicken breast-side down (if you're unsure, poke the meat with your finger; the breast feels soft, while the back feels bony)."

"text": "Symmastia / Synmastia Identifying and Correcting Synmastia or Symmastia in Breast Implants Synmastia (also called uniboob or breadloafing; often misspelled as symmastia) is a specific example of a post-operative problem requiring a thorough, systematic approach and innovative surgical techniques. This is one of the most dreaded complications following breast augmentation, and the permanent correction of synmastia is one of the most difficult problems facing a plastic surgeon. This is why it is critical that you find a plastic surgeon with extensive experience in the correction of synmastia and one who is confident in his or her own technique. Before After Photos show a 33 year old patient with synmastia, at pre-op and three months post-op. Synmastia repair with bilateral Internal Bra procedure and implant exchange was performed. Before After Photos show a 27 year old patient with synmastia, at pre-op and six months post-op. Synmastia repair with bilateral Internal Bra procedure was perfomed; implant exchange from moderate profile saline filled to 370cc to moderate profile saline filled to 425cc. What is synmastia (symmastia)? Synmastia (shown below) is present when one or both implants are positioned too close to the midline over the breastbone (sternum). This means that the pockets, or capsules, surrounding the implants are too medially placed."

"text": "Drug Description Asthma Slideshow Pictures Take the Asthma Quiz!10 Worst Cities for Asthma Slideshow Pictures PULMICORT RESPULES® (budesonide) Inhalation Suspension DESCRIPTIONBudesonide, the active component of PULMICORT RESPULES® (budesonide inhalation suspension) , is a corticosteroid designated chemically as (RS)-11β, 16α, 17, 21-tetrahydroxypregna-1, 4-diene-3, 20dione cyclic 16, 17-acetal with butyraldehyde. Budesonide is provided as a mixture of two epimers (22R and 22S). The empirical formula of budesonide is C 25 H 34 O 6 and its molecular weight is 430.5. Its structural formula is: Budesonide is a white to off-white, tasteless, odorless powder that is practically insoluble in water and in heptane, sparingly soluble in ethanol, and freely soluble in chloroform. Its partition coefficient between octanol and water at p H 7.4 is 1.6 x 10 3. PULMICORT RESPULES (budesonide inhalation suspension) is a sterile suspension for inhalation via jet nebulizer and contains the active ingredient budesonide (micronized), and the inactive ingredients disodium edetate, sodium chloride, sodium citrate, citric acid, polysorbate 80, and Water for Injection. Three dose strengths are available in single-dose ampules (Respules™ ampules): 0.25 mg, 0.5 mg, and 1 mg per 2 m L RESPULES ampule. For PULMICORT RESPULES (budesonide inhalation suspension) , like all other nebulized treatments, the amount delivered to the lungs will depend on patient factors, the jet nebulizer utilized, and compressor performance. Using the Pari-LC-Jet Plus Nebulizer/Pari Master compressor system, under in vitro conditions, the mean delivered dose at the mouthpiece (% nominal dose) was approximately 17% at a mean flow rate of 5.5 L/min. The mean nebulization time was 5 minutes or less."

Budesonide treats a variety of conditions, including diseases of the intestines or bowels like Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, lung diseases like asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and allergic rhinitis (hay fever)It's also one of the drugs found in the inhaler Symbicort, used to treat COPD and asthma.

Budesonide Warnings No prescription drug that contains budesonide as its only active ingredient carries a black-box warning. However, Symbicort, an inhaler that contains both budesonide and formoterol, carries a black-box warning because of the health risks associated with formoterol. You should not take budesonide if you are allergic to it or any of its ingredients, or if have any of the following conditions: High blood pressure or congestive heart failure (CHF)Liver problems Eye conditions like glaucoma or cataracts Diabetes Ongoing infection Ulcers Seizures Mental or mood conditions Also, it's important to note that children shouldn't take the sustained release (SR) or long-acting capsules of budesonide. Talk to your doctor before taking budesonide if you: Are taking sustained-release budesonide and are about to have surgery Have osteoporosis Have tuberculosis Pregnancy and Budesonide Budesonide that is taken by mouth falls under the FDA's Pregnancy Category C, meaning that harm to a developing fetus can't be ruled out.

Listing a study does not mean it has been evaluated by the U. S. Federal Government. Read our disclaimer for details. Clinical Trials.gov Identifier: NCT00393367Recruitment Status : Completed First Posted : October 27, 2006Results First Posted : July 25, 2011Last Update Posted : August 10, 2012Sponsor: Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Information provided by (Responsible Party): Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Study Details Tabular View Study Results Disclaimer How to Read a Study Record Study Description Go to Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine whether the addition of budesonide inhalation suspension (BIS) to the standard therapy of albuterol, ipratropium bromide, and systemic corticosteroids (SCS) for moderate to severe asthma flares in children reduces asthma severity more rapidly than standard therapy alone. Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase Asthma Acute Asthma Reactive Airway Exacerbation Drug: Budesonide inhalation suspension (0.5 mg/2m L) 2mg, albuterol (5mg/m L) 7.5 or 10mg Drug: Prednisolone, prednisone, or methylprednisolone Drug: Albuterol, ipratropium bromide Drug: Ipratropium bromide Phase 4Detailed Description: Context: Acute asthma is a leading cause of emergency department (ED) visits and hospitalizations. Although standard therapy for acute asthma includes systemic corticosteroids (SCS), these drugs take many hours to have an effect. Recent studies demonstrate that inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) may improve patients' asthma severity more rapidly than SCS and may decrease hospitalizations. Only a few small studies have evaluated ICS added to standard therapy for acute asthma in children. Objective: To determine if adding the nebulized steroid budesonide to standard therapy including SCS improves patients' asthma severity faster than standard therapy alone and leads to fewer hospitalizations. Study Design/Setting/Participants: A double-blind, randomized, controlled trial of budesonide inhalation suspension (BIS) versus placebo for children 2 to 18 years of age who present to a tertiary care, urban pediatric ED with a moderate to severe asthma flare."

"text": "What Is Budesonide (Uceris)?31 Reviews Budesonide is the generic name of a prescription drug sold under the brand names Entocort EC, Uceris, Pulmicort, Pulmicort Flexhaler, Pulmicort Respules, and Rhinocort. Budesonide treats a variety of conditions, including diseases of the intestines or bowels like Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, lung diseases like asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and allergic rhinitis (hay fever)It's also one of the drugs found in the inhaler Symbicort, used to treat COPD and asthma. Budesonide was approved in 1994 by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) under the brand name Rhinocort, and was manufactured by Astra Zeneca. Budesonide Warnings No prescription drug that contains budesonide as its only active ingredient carries a black-box warning. However, Symbicort, an inhaler that contains both budesonide and formoterol, carries a black-box warning because of the health risks associated with formoterol. You should not take budesonide if you are allergic to it or any of its ingredients, or if have any of the following conditions: High blood pressure or congestive heart failure (CHF)Liver problems Eye conditions like glaucoma or cataracts Diabetes Ongoing infection Ulcers Seizures Mental or mood conditions Also, it's important to note that children shouldn't take the sustained release (SR) or long-acting capsules of budesonide. Talk to your doctor before taking budesonide if you: Are taking sustained-release budesonide and are about to have surgery Have osteoporosis Have tuberculosis Pregnancy and Budesonide Budesonide that is taken by mouth falls under the FDA's Pregnancy Category C, meaning that harm to a developing fetus can't be ruled out.

Canada has among the highest reported rates of IBD in the world. Ulcerative colitis is a condition that can be very debilitating and significantly compromise quality of life. Approximately 104,000 Canadians are living with UC. 1CORTIMENT ®MMXcontains budesonide, a partly locally acting glucocorticosteroid, in a novel oral tablet formulation utilizing a delivery technology that is designed to result in the controlled release and distribution of budesonide. The mode of action of CORTIMENT ®MMX is based on a local action in the gut. 2The approved dosing regimen for adult patients is one 9 mg tablet taken once daily for up to 8 weeks. In phase III studies, 2.4 to 3.9 times more patients achieved clinical and endoscopic remission with CORTIMENT ®MMX compared to placebo, and no clinically significant glucocorticosteroid side effects were seen versus placebo after eight weeks of treatment (CORE I study and CORE II study respectively). 3,4\"\"Ulcerative colitis is a chronic relapsing condition for which new treatment options are needed."

"text": "Autoimmune Hepatitis Andrea Fialho, MDAndre Fialho, MDWilliam D. Carey, MDPublished: July 2015 Last Reviewed: August 2017Contents Definition Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a chronic inflammatory condition of the liver of unknown etiology identified in the 1940s and formerly called chronic active hepatitis. Autoimmune hepatitis is characterized by liver transaminase elevation in the presence of autoantibodies, elevated gamma globulin levels, interface hepatitis on histology, and a great response to corticosteroids. Back to Top Epidemiology Autoimmune hepatitis occurs worldwide but the exact incidence and prevalence of the disease in the United States is unknown. The point prevalence and incidence of AIH in Northern Europeans is approximately 18 per 100,000 people per year and 1.1 per 100,000 people per year, respectively, 1 and it is assumed that this data can be extrapolated to the North American population. Interestingly the prevalence of AIH in Native Alaskan population is much higher, with a point prevalence of 42 per 100,000 people/year. 2 Autoimmune hepatitis has a female predominance and a bimodal age distribution with 2 peaks, 1 in childhood and another in the 5th decade. 2,3 However AIH occurs in both genders and in all age groups and there have been reports of newly diagnosed AIH in patients 80 years of age. Subtypes Autoimmune hepatitis is subdivided in 2 types, according to the pattern of autoantibodies. Although management does not differ between these 2 types, there is a prognostic value. Type 1 AIH: This is the most common type in the United States, accounting for 96% of the AIH cases in North America, 3 has a female to male ratio of 4 to 1 and a great response to corticosteroids."

Exenatide (Byetta, Bydureon) and liraglutide (Victoza) are taken by injection, similar to insulin, but they're not insulin. These medications are in a class of drugs called incretin mimetics, which improve blood sugar control by mimicking the action of a hormone called glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1). Among other things, these drugs stimulate insulin secretion in response to rising blood sugar levels after a meal, which results in lowering of the blood sugar. Byetta, Bydureon and Victoza not only improve blood sugar control, but may also lead to weight loss. There are many proposed ways in which these medications cause weight loss. They appear to help suppress appetite. But the most prominent effect of these drugs is that they delay the movement of food from the stomach into the small intestine."

Getty Paul Cordwell / Eye Em Hodge Photography9 March 2015When are oral medicines used? In type 1 diabetes (insulin-dependent diabetes), the cells in the pancreas that produce insulin are progressively destroyed by an immune reaction, stopping the production of insulin. Insulin replacement treatment is therefore needed for life, because we cannot make the beta cells in the pancreas work again to produce insulin. Insulin can't be taken in tablet form, because it is broken down in the digestive system. This destroys its effect."

Tanzeum is a new injectable diabetes drug approved by FDA in April 2014 for use in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Tanzeum belongs to a group of drugs known as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists because they resemble and mimic the action of human GLP-1 hormone (incretin hormone). They are also known as incretin mimetics. It is an injectable drug that reduces blood glucose by increasing insulin production by the pancreas, slows the absorption of glucose from the gut, reduces the activity of glucagon (a hormone that increases the release of glucose from the liver), and reduces appetite. What does Tanzeum treat? Tanzeum is combined with diet and exercise to improve glucose control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Who should not use Tanzeum? Tanzeum is not recommended as first-line therapy for patients not controlledby diet and exercise alone. Tanzeum is contraindicated in patients with a history of medullary thyroid cancer or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Syndrome Type 2 (MEN 2)."

Bydureon is a once weekly injectable medication for people with type 2 diabetes. Bydureon was given approval to be prescribed in the UK in October 2011. Bydureon once weekly injection Bydureon is the same medical drug as Byetta, except Bydureon is slower released requiring one injection a week, whereas Byetta is injected twice a day. How does Bydureon work? Bydureon’s action takes place in response to food entering the small intestine. Bydureon responds to presence of carbohydrate, in the form of glucose, by stimulating release of insulin, inhibiting release of glucagon and slowing down emptying of the stomach. Each of these three mechanisms can help to keep blood glucose levels lower. Who may take Bydureon? NICE guidance states that Bydureon is suitable for people meeting the following conditions: Hb A1c of 7.5% or above A BMI of 35 of higher People with a BMI value below 35 may be considered for Bydureon if insulin therapy would have significant occupational implications or if the weight loss properties of Bydureon would provide significant medical benefit."

It helps control your blood sugar. Who can take it: Adults who have type 2 diabetes and haven’t had success with other treatment. If you're planning to get pregnant, talk with your doctor, since researchers haven't studied albiglutide in pregnant women. What it does: After you eat, albiglutide helps your pancreas release insulin, which moves blood sugar (glucose) into your cells. It also limits how much of the hormone glucagon your body makes. This substance spurs your liver to release stored sugar. The drug also slows down digestion."

"text": "Reports of Pancreatic Cancer, Thyroid Cancer, Pancreatitis, Kidney Problems, Other Health Problems Shortly after Byetta (exenatide) was released in April 2005, concerns emerged about the potential side effects of the type-2 diabetes drug. While millions of Americans have been prescribed the medication and the drug maker has generated billions of dollars in sales, a number of users have reported developing severe and potentially life-threatening Byetta injuries, such as: Pancreatitis Pancreatic Cancer Thyroid Cancer Kidney Failure Byetta Pancreatitis Risk NOTE: The lawyers at Saiontz & Kirk, P. A. are currently only investigating new Byetta pancreatic cancer lawsuits, and are not accepting cases for individuals who have only been diagnosed with pancreatitis, without a subsequent diagnosis of cancer In October 2007, the FDA issued an alert to healthcare providers to notify them that the agency had received at least 30 reports of problems with acute pancreatitis following Byetta pen use. In August 2008, a second alert was issued to inform healthcare providers about six additional cases of necrotizing pancreatitis or hemorrhagic pancreatitis from Byetta, which had resulted in at least two deaths. Amylin Pharmaceuticals then acknowledged that they were aware of at least four other Byetta deaths linked to severe cases of pancreatitis among users of the drug. Pancreatitis involves inflammation of the pancrease, and it can result in the need for surgery, long term complications, cancer or even death. Hemorrhagic pancreatitis is a severe form of the condition where massive erosion of blood vessels can lead to bleeding. Necrotizing pancreatitis is associated with tissue damage, which causes the release of toxins and enzymes into the blood stream, which could cause multi-organ failure. Symptoms of pancreatitis on Byetta could involve: Upper Abdominal Pain Pain Radiating Through the Back Nausea and Vomitting High or Low Blood Pressure Elevated Heart or Respiratory Rates Multi Organ Failure Death Of particular concern are indications that Byetta pancreatitis may remain asymptomatic over a long period of time or become chronic pancreatitis, which is characterized by recurring or persistent abdominal pain. In some cases, over an extended period of time, this may result in a diagnosis of pancreatic cancer from Byetta.

Macular oedema, a common complication of diabetes, occurs when fluid and protein deposits collect on or under the macula of the eye, which is in the centre of the retina. This causes it to thicken and swell resulting with the distortion of a person’s central vision. It often develops as a result of diabetic retinopathy. NICE Approval In 2011 the National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) decided not to recommend the drug for treatment of diabetic macular oedema due largely to the high costs associated with the drug. But in January 2013, the health watchdog overturned its ruling and following an agreement by the manufacturer Novartis to lower the price of the drug to the NHS. As a result, Lucentis is now available on the NHS as a form of treatment for patients with impaired vision caused by DMO. How does Lucentis work? Lucentis is given in the form of an injection which can be administered monthly or three times a month. The medicine helps to prevent new blood vessels growing, which can therefore help combat the development of wet ARMD and macular oedema and allow the eye to heal itself to some extent."

"text": "Pages< 1 2 3 4 >+ enlarge Metformin Facts Metformin is the only medication in the biguanides category of blood glucose-lowering drugs approved by the U. S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Metformin has been available in the United States since the mid-1990s, when it received FDA approval. You may also know it by its brand name when it was under patent, Glucophage. Metformin is now widely available as a relatively inexpensive generic medication. Metformin’s main action is to decrease the overproduction of glucose by the liver, a common problem in prediabetes and type 2 diabetes. The action of metformin helps lower blood sugar levels particularly during the night to keep fasting glucose levels under control, but it also helps control blood glucose throughout the day. Metformin also increases the uptake of glucose by your muscles. Overall, metformin decreases insulin resistance and improves insulin sensitivity, thereby helping the insulin your body still makes work more effectively. People with prediabetes and in the early years of type 2 diabetes often continue to make some insulin, just not enough to control blood sugar levels alone. Metformin is not formally approved for use in prediabetes, and any use to treat prediabetes is considered off-label by providers."

"text": "Help For Yellowing Calla Lilies: Why Calla Lily Leaves Turn Yellow Printer Friendly Version Image by Gardening Know How By Anne Baley The leaves of a healthy calla lily are a deep, rich green. If your houseplant or garden list includes calla lily, yellowing leaves can be a sign that something is wrong with your plant. A calla lily turning yellow can be an indication of a number of problems, but most of them are easily fixed. Learn why calla lily leaves turn yellow, and more importantly, what to do about it to save your callas. Reasons for Yellow Leaves on Calla Lilies If your biggest plant problem is, “My calla lily leaves are yellowing,” you should look beneath the soil for the answers. Yellow leaves are a sign of problems in the roots of the plant, for a number of different reasons. Yellowing leaves, known as chlorosis, is sometimes caused by a nutrient shortage in the soil, most often nitrogen, iron, zinc or some other trace element. Either your soil is actually lacking this trace element, or there is something in the roots that is preventing the nutrients from being absorbed. Check with your local extension service about testing your soil. Another common reason for yellowing calla lilies is root rot."

It is important to remember that although certain plants listed here, such as aloe vera and poinsettas, may not be lethally toxic, it is never safe to assume that certain PARTS of these plants are not equally as toxic or potentially lethal if ingested, or if large amounts are ingested. Remember that toxicity can occur when certain leaves, stems, buds, flower petals, roots or leaf and stem secretions are ingested. If at any time you feel that your kitty has eaten, ingested, or come into contact with any of the plants listed here, do not hesitate to have your kitty seen by your vet or an emergency vet immediately. Time is of the essence in most toxicities, and prompt, agressive treatment is necessary to ensure your kitty's health and survival.

"text": "\"CALLA LILY Edited by Chas Bogan The Calla Lily (Zantedeschia Aethiopica) has a common name that has caused much confusion, being that it is neither a true Calla (Calloideae) or Lily (Lilium). Nevertheless it shares attributes with both of its namesake. The word Calla is derived from the Greek, meaning \"\"beautiful.\"\" Other names Include: Arum Lily, Florist's Calla, Garden Calla, Pig Lily, Trumpet Lily, and White Arum. Additionally there are more varieties than the icon white. They possess such colorful names as: Dead Horse, Black Magic, Green Goddess, Diva Maria, Neon Amour, Pillow Talk, Captain Safari, Odessa's Pride and many more. The Calla Lily is considered to be naked, or 'achlamydeous,' by the standards of botany, lacking both petals and septals. It has a funnel-shaped spathe bract, which cannot be called a petal and is actually a type of leaf, enclosing the large spadix at its center, which is most commonly referred to as a spike. While some take note of the Calla Lily's phallic spike, others, such as Georgia O'Keeffe, are inspired by the likeness of its spathe to female genitalia. This resemblance to hermaphroditicism equates it to the primary deity of the Faery Tradition, as described by Victor Anderson, \"\"the clitorophallic presence of God Herself .\"\""

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

Also, the package says full sun to partial shade, but In Oklahoma the sun is terrible during the summer. Would I then put them in a shadier spot as the summer progresses? Thank you for any responses, I want to have some cool calla lilies to be healthy and such. Email Save Comment 18 Like Comments (18)Cat_Gal (z10, S. CA)Hi, Our callas (we've got the regular ol' white ones, but I don't think colors make much of a difference in this case) bloom during the winter and spring. The rest of the year, they are in their dormant period and do not bloom (at least in my experience). It's best to keep them in partial shade. We have kept them in full sun during the summers (but I live in California) and they are okay that way, too. During growth periods, they like lots of water. ( Mother is an overwaterer and they just love her- they've rebloomed every year for the past 5 or so years.)"

It‘s more closely related to caladiums and elephant ears, or taro and alum plants. The long-lasting cut blooms are perfect for any bouquet or arrangement, and are particularly breathtaking as single vase specimens complemented by a little greenery. These tender perennials are winter hardy only in USDA Planting Zones 10 and 11. As undemanding as they are lovely, your beauties will ask little of you in the way of maintenance. Use clean, sharp scissors or shears to cut calla lilies for your indoor arrangements beginning in mid-summer. Prune off spent bloom stems following flowering to keep your plants looking handsome and tidy. Remove any dead, damaged or diseased leaves and stems as you see them. Cut yellowed, withering and dying foliage off at ground level at the end of the blooming season. No other pruning is needed or desirable for calla lilies."

Lily colors include white, yellow, red, orange and multi. In particular, they can be confused with irises because of similar attributes. While the bulb is the most distinguishing characteristic, there are other features that can help you figure out if the flower is a lily. Observe the number of petals on the flower. A lily has three petals and three sepals (the outermost layer of the flower surrounding the petals). Look at the leaves on the plant."

The calla lily (Zantedeschia aethiopica) is a versatile perennial that can fulfill a variety of roles in the home landscape, from tropical specimen plant to potted house plant or elegant cut flower. Some people also find value in the plant as a food source, as its leaves are edible when cooked. Eating any part of the plant is quite dangerous however, as calla lilies contain toxic calcium oxalate crystals. Human Poisoning Eating any part of a raw calla lily can lead to symptoms such as diarrhea, stomach pain, intense burning sensations, and swelling of the throat, tongue and lips. North Carolina State University describes the plant as highly toxic, warning that it may be fatal if eaten. If you are concerned that you or someone you know may be experiencing poisoning symptoms from a calla lily, call The American Association of Poison Control Centers' free 24-hour Poison Help Line at 1-800-222-1222. Pet Poisoning Calla lily is listed by the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals as being toxic to both dogs and cats.

"text": "The beginning of a new year always evokes the feeling of a new beginning and a fresh start. It is a time when we each revaluate our lives and decide on what we would like to change and improve. As a result many of us decide to send flowers to family and close friends in order to celebrate the prospect of a new beginning. However, choosing the right flowers in order to symbolise this message can be difficult at times. In order to choose the right flowers to send your message of a new beginning, it is important to focus on the meanings of the flower. The first widely accepted book describing the meanings of flowers was named: ‘ Le langage des fleurs ’ and published in 1819 by Charlotte de Latou. In this book the meanings of flowers which originally came from the Victorian era to communicate a secret message to another, were described and elaborated on. The Victorians had a huge interest in the meaning of flowers and as a result used the meanings in order to tell others how they felt. Many writers over the years have also used the language of flowers in order to convey messages and metaphors throughout their writing. Shakespeare being the most well known writer to use the term ‘flower’ over 100 times in his plays and sonnets."

"text": "Home »Flowers How to Transplant Calla Lilies By D. C. Winston; Updated September 21, 2017Calla lilies are perennial plants that thrive in shade and moist soil and grow up from an underground bulb that blooms in the summer. Calla blooms are creamy white and are grown in bed, borders, containers and naturalized in shade or woodland gardens. They are hardy in USDA zones 9 to 11 and the bulbs can safely be dug and stored over winter in cooler climates. Calla bulbs and plants can be transplanted in the spring or early fall, depending on your climate. Transplant an actively growing calla lily plant anytime of the year in climates where the plant is hardy. For late-summer or fall transplanting in climates where calla lilies cannot overwinter in the ground, store your calla lily as a houseplant or in a temperature-controlled greenhouse until outdoor temperatures warm in the spring and the last frost has passed. Gently slide the root ball from its present location, taking as much soil around the bulb and roots as possible. Till up and loosen the soil in the new planting site. Set the plant down into a freshly dug hole that is at least twice the diameter of the root ball. Keep the soil level on the stem consistent from the old planting location to the new."

"text": "Home »Flowers How to Transplant Calla Lily Bulbs By Kathryn Hatter; Updated September 21, 2017The calla lily, with its imperial blossom and rich, green foliage, makes an impressive summer blooming plant in a sunny flower garden. Calla lilies grow from bulbs and an advantage of growing these prolific bloomers is the way they will spread throughout a planting area if you allow it. If you grow calla lilies in a region where winter temperatures fall below 40 F, you must lift the calla lilies each autumn and store them until the next growing season. Transplant calla lilies during dormancy (late autumn or early spring). Clip the foliage from the calla lilies down to the soil level with the pruning shears (if necessary) prior to removing them from the soil. Discard the stems and foliage after removing them. Insert the shovel into the soil approximately 4 inches away from the center of the calla lily. Insert the blade of the shovel repeatedly to make a circle around the lily, and then angle the tip of the shovel beneath the bulb to remove it from the soil. Prepare a new growing area for the calla lilies if you will be placing them immediately back into the soil. Loosen the soil down at least 6 inches with the garden spade."

"text": "\"Home »Flowers Types of Burgundy Color Flowers By Deborah Stephenson; Updated September 21, 2017Over the years preferences in garden style and colors change. In the first decades of the 2000s, a trend has been toward darker flowers, and burgundy tops the list . Whatever your landscape plan or occasion calls for, from cut flowers to vines and shrubs, there is sure to be a burgundy colored flower just right for the purpose. Garden and Landscape Flowers Iris \"\"War Chief\"\" is an excellent deep burgundy flower for damp areas that looks striking near ponds or stream banks. The tall amaranth \"\"Oeschberg\"\" (Amaranthus cruentus) is a dramatic plant with huge branched eggplant-colored flower spikes and maroon/green leaves. It works well in a sunny spot, planted with \"\"Arabian Night,\"\" a deep burgundy dahlia (Dahlia spp.) introduced in the early 1950s. Hollyhock \"\"Nigra\"\" (Alcea rosea) is another bloomer for cottage gardens. It is such a deep burgundy it appears almost black. Callibracchoa \"\"Superbells Plum\"\" and geranium \"\"Imperial\"\" (Pelargonium hybrid) are other burgundy choices for the landscape."

On the African island Madagascar, the calla lily thrives due to the steady temperatures and moderate seasons. Calla lilies will bloom all year around as long as they have a sufficient supply of water, energy and nutrition. The calla lily was by the Romans in association with the winter solstice. The lilies were forced to bloom indoors during the darkest time of year to celebrate the preservation of the light and bringing the light indoors. Calla lilies were often associated with funerals, only later to become a popular wedding flower. The lily was a sacred flower to the Minoans and also prized among the ancient Jews."

"text": "\"This article does not cite any sources. Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. ( September 2008) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)A Chinese auction is a combination of a raffle and an auction that is typically featured at charity, church festival and numerous other events. It can also be known as penny social, penny sale, tricky tray or pick-a-prize according to local custom, or to avoid causing offense. It is unclear whether this type of auction actually originated in China; it is much more likely that the term derives from \"\"chance auction,\"\" which is also another name for this type of auction. The term \"\"Chinese\"\" may have been used in this case to convey that this type of auction was mysterious, intriguing, or secretive; possibly, it may have more derogatory connotations related to stereotypes of Chinese immigrants to the United States in the late 19th century. The difference between a raffle and a Chinese auction is that in a raffle with multiple prizes, there is one \"\"hat\"\" from which names are drawn, but in a Chinese auction each prize has its own \"\"hat\"\". This allows ticket buyers to choose which prize to focus on, as opposed to having a first, second, third, etc. prize."

"text": "\"NEW YORK ( The Street) -- If there is such a thing as a golden rule for collectibles, it's buy what you love -- and if you're lucky, some of that will be valuable, too. The collectible market is a tricky one, and a lot of what people believe will be valuable winds up becoming completely worthless (remember that '90s Beanie Baby craze ?). The sector evolves over time, and interests -- and generations -- change. \"\" The greatest of the collecting generations, which is the World War II generation, is dying, and there's nobody stepping up to replace them in terms of buying all the stuff that they bought,\"\" said New York-based appraiser and consultant Lisa Ramaci. \"\" The collectibles market has really shrunk. \"\" But collectibles haven't died out all together. A number of items still fetch a pretty penny at auctions, in private transactions, or through online platforms such as e Bay ( EBAY) and Amazon ( AMZN) . And as the market starts to look especially volatile, more and more people could start eyeing collecting as an alternative way to invest. But as industry experts will tell you, returns aren't a sure thing, meaning whatever you buy you should be fine with hanging onto for a while. \"\" Buy something because you love it and you get pleasure from it and it kind of speaks to you."

But now, almost 800 years after his death, Genghis Kahn is embroiled in another war as China attempts to adopt the Mongol king as its own national hero. In stark contrast to Mao Zedong, who insisted Genghis was only fit to fire arrows at birds, communist officials and historians now say he represents the essence of new China – a unifying force for a strident land of many ethnic minorities. \"\" We define him as a great man of the Chinese people, a hero of the Mongolian nationality, and a giant in world history,\"\" said Guo Wurong, the manager of the new Genghis Khan \"\"mausoleum\"\" in China's Inner Mongolia province. \"\" Genghis Khan was certainly Chinese,\"\" he added. The ''mausoleum\"\" was built on a spot the Mongol leader was said to have passed on his way to his final war in 1227, and holds artefacts including his bow and saddle. Related Articles Genghis Khan is back11 Jul 2006The Khan career11 Jul 2006But the buildings resemble many Chinese imperial tombs, drawing criticism for historical inaccuracy. And recent Mongolian festivals of riding, shooting and wrestling, once banned but now subsidised by the Chinese state, have been \"\"communised\"\", according to one Mongolian official who did not wish to be named. Such rewriting of history has raised the hackles of Mongolians, both in the independent (outer) Mongolian state and inside China. They see the attempt to claim their national icon as part of a Chinese plan to expand influence."

The stunning one-of-a-kind piece featured on the cover of the auction catalog and ended up fetching $3 million. This is sale marked the international debut of Nirav Modi, an unknown jewelry designer from India, a country with a reputation for producing cut-price diamonds rather than high-end jewelry. “ It’s not usual for us to put a first time designer’s work on the cover of our auction catalogue,” acknowledges Rahul Kadakia, head of Christie’s jewelry department in New York. “ But we were struck by Nirav’s fluid design. ”Since making a splash at Christie’s, Modi’s jewelry pieces have been showing up at various auctions in the region. Last October, a Nirav Modi diamond necklace, featuring 36 flawless white diamonds, together weighing 88.88 carats, was sold for $5.1 million at a Sotheby’s auction in Hong Kong to a Chinese buyer. “The necklace was crafted to achieve that particular weight as 8 is considered a lucky number by the Chinese,” says the soft-spoken Modi who designed his first piece-a pair of earrings- only in 2009. A third generation diamantaire, who features among India’s newest billionaires, Modi aspire to be his country’s king of high-end bling, “more Laurence Graff than Harry Winston,” he elaborates. He sports a pair of silver elephant-shaped cuff links that he designed “just for fun."

With the recent rise in the luxury spending trend, the list most expensive items sold at auction is rapidly growing, with hundreds and millions of dollars being spent on various priceless items such as paintings, sculptures, vintage cars, comic books etc. Globally renowned auction houses such as the likes of Sotheby’s, Christie’s etc. are now greatly benefitting from the arrival of Russian and Chinese millionaires as well as billionaires, who have exhibited an intense interest in valuable pieces of art, automobiles and other antiquities. From Pablo Picasso, Marilyn Monroe to the U. S national anthem, nowadays, nearly everything vintage and historic is now being valued at extremely high prices and considered to be a prized possession.

You enter one of their online auctions as an avatar that looks something like a cartoon character from South Park. The room is filled with others like you including an auctioneer. In the upper right of the screen photos of the item up for sale rotate with the current bid underneath. It’s fun without being overly gimmicky.

Within minutes of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge appearing on the steps of the Lindo Wing with their 10-hour-old daughter a year ago tomorrow, the makers of the £68 shawl she was draped in were flooded with requests from parents eager to purchase a similar style. “ It was within a few minutes we noticed on our website that the shawl was starting to sell,\"\" Gillian Taylor, director at the Nottingham-based company G.

I am concerned that some advertisers in widely read ‘print’ coin publications are selling uncertified coins as ‘Choice’ (implied or thought to be MS-63 or higher), Very Choice (thought to grade MS-64), or Gem Uncirculated (thought to be MS-65 or higher) that do NOT come close to qualifying for such grades. Put simply, I wonder if many “Choice” or “Gem” uncertified coins would not receive equivalent grades if submitted to the PCGS or the NGC, AND would be regarded as overgraded by most leading, expert graders? From advertisements in a recent issue of a widely read coin magazine, I have selected a few examples, which I honestly believe to be well representative of a large phenomenon of the advertising of uncertified “Choice” or “Gem” pre-1935 U. S. coins. I am not criticizing this particular magazine. Besides, there are similar advertisements in at least one other widely read periodical. The topic of questionably graded uncertified coins is of tremendous importance. Many buyers will eventually submit such coins to the PCGS or the NGC. Others will eventually show them to grading experts and/or leading dealers in the mainstream, perhaps at major coin conventions. In many cases, though not necessarily of the advertised coins mentioned in this column, buyers of “Choice” or “Gem” uncertified coins will eventually find out that they have been sold coins that are overgraded according to the views of experts in the mainstream."

Today, the word--Albania--is referred to as \"\"Alebaniya\"\" in Chinese. This word is believed to be derived from the Latin word: \"\"Aibainiya\"\". ( The \"\"l\"\" in Albania came about later in Greek and in Latin as these languages evolved). Poignantly, in modern Chinese, \"\"bai\"\" means \"\"snow white\"\". In the ancient Chinese language, \"\"ai\"\" means \"\"snow white\"\" without the \"\"b\"\"--not in reference to the young maiden and her seven dwarfs however! Rather, \"\"snow white\"\" refers to the dramatic descriptions of the snow white mountains of Albania which bring to mind the many horrid tragedies the Greek soldiers faced during World War II upon such mountains. The Chinese word, \"\"bai\"\", which means \"\"snow white\"\" offers another fascinating meaning which might sound rather farfetched. Nevertheless, the Chinese word for white wine (which is produced with sugar cane and maize, as is Greek ouzo) is \"\"bai jiu\"\". Many wines are referred to, in Chinese, as \"\"san- bai\"\" which means exactly: \"\"white three-fold\"\"."

Already a global hub for jewelry manufacturing, it is now a rapidly growing consumer market. While rising costs of labor in China have created challenges for the manufacturing sector, this has led to greater domestic consumption of luxury products, including jewelry. The highest growth potential lies in the inland urban centers, as Chinese citizens continue a massive migration from rural areas to the cities.

More than 200 black-and-white episodes of the series were shown on the fledgling ITV network between 1956 and 1962. Handsome and square-jawed, O’Brian landed the starring title role because he resembled the real Wyatt Earp (1848-1929) as a young lawman in late 19th-century Kansas and later in Tombstone, Arizona. It was the first television western to be aimed specifically at adults. Series appealing to children such as The Cisco Kid and The Lone Ranger had been scheduled for late afternoon slots. Inspired by the legendary events of the real-life frontier marshal, Earp played in after-dinner prime time and transformed O’Brian into one of television’s first sex symbols. Hugh O'Brian Credit: Rex H is distinctive portrayal of what the show’s theme song described as the “brave, courageous and bold” frontier lawman was marked by a black frock coat, a gold brocade waistcoat, string tie and flat-brimmed black hat. Although by modern lights the action is ponderously slow, the series built steadily in the American television ratings, finally ranking as the nation’s fourth most popular programme. In the course of the series, O’Brian’s Earp encountered such historical figures as John Wesley Hardin, the Thompson Brothers and Doc Holliday, as well as Earp’s brothers Virgil and Morgan. After six seasons, it concluded with an epic five-episode story in which Earp, with the help of his brothers and Doc Holliday, took on Old Man Clanton and the Ten Percent Gang in a final showdown at the OK Corral."

"text": "\"Extortion and Blackmail Extortion is the use of a public official's power to threaten governmental action unless money is paid to that official. Known as a tribute, bribe, or kickback, these statutes specifically target those who are in a position of power. Blackmail is applied to those without governmental power and is commonly thought of as a threat to use physical force or to expose certain information if the blackmailer is not paid something of value to not commit the threatened act. Even threats made to persons outside of the United States can be prosecuted in the United States if the threat originated from inside the United States. The 1946 Hobbs Act was the most dramatic overhaul of the federal statutes on these points and was used by federal officials to combat \"\"mob\"\" like activity. Federal jurisdiction is usually gathered through the use of the mail, wire, phone, or other methods of interstate commerce. However, these cases are extremely difficult to prove without significant cooperation from codefendants in a case. Often persons are alleged to have worked in corroboration with others and without someone on the \"\"inside\"\" it is often hard to build cases against a defendant. Extortion and blackmail are often charged along with or as the predicate acts for RICO prosecutions. Therefore, there are numerous sections of the United States Code which can be invoked in a blackmail or extortion charge."

Whenever we, the Lab VIEW developers, want to add new features, we must consider that the majority of our customers are not programmers. In version 8.2, we introduced Lab VIEW Object-Oriented Programming (LVOOP). Object orientation (OO) is a programming style full of abstract concepts and technical vocabulary. Most explanations of it require either an intimate knowledge of programming or a long learning curve. We aimed to streamline that complexity with the goal of making the power of OO accessible to a wide range of our users.

"text": "\"The term “ Gypsy ” is commonly used as designation for the people whose correct ethnic name is Roma. However, the same word is employed also to indicate different non-Roma groups whose lifestyle is apparently similar; like some “ Travellers ” and other itinerant people. We are not dealing here with the derogatory implications that are ascribed to this term, but only with the respectful meaning of the word which may be acceptable as a popular term to define a community of people having distinguishable cultural features. There are also other applications of this word which are not of our interest, as for example, in reference to people whose lifestyle is regarded as unconventional ‒ in a similar way as “Bohemian” ‒ or as it is applied mainly in America, to artists who have actually not any ethnic relationship with any Gypsy group, neither Romany nor non-Romany. Therefore, we can say that there are ethnic Gypsies who are Roma, and other Gypsies who are not ethnically Roma. In this essay we intend to briefly expose about both: Romany and non-Romany Gypsies. Romany Gypsies The Roma are a well defined ethnic community, composed by groups and sub-groups having a common origin and common cultural patterns ‒ that in many cases have been modified or adapted, according to the land of sojourn and other circumstances along history. There is a common Romany Law, which several groups do not keep any longer, but still recognizing that their ancestors have observed such complex of laws until not too long time ago. It is not easy to classify the distinct Romany groups and sub-groups. There are different patterns to be considered in order to establish a relationship between them: for example, the language and the degree of observance of the “ Zakono ” (the Romany Law) are essential for the largest group of Roma worldwide, while many other groups do not speak Romany at all and take account of other facts in order to consider a person to be a true Rom/Romni or not."

I’ve recently had one of those and at first I quite selfishly concluded “Wow, I’m a great communicator”. But then I realized, hang on a second, I think this other person was the reason I felt so good about this talk, how did he do that? I started to think about a few of the things this person did, that made me feel so comfortable and open to speak with him. In usual Buffer blog manner, I thought of finding some real science to back up some of the simple habits this newly found friend had so ingrained when talking with me. So what I’ve come up with are 5 of the most effective habits famous communicators have used for hundreds of years. Recently some new science studies have backed up their claims and I feel it makes for a very compelling case to overhaul my own communication efforts and maybe it’s some inspiration for you too!Let’s dig in:1. They listen first – then focus on being Active and Constructive The word conversation generally brings to mind talking—at least for me. However, if you’ve ever seen two people trying to talk to each other at the same time, you’ll know that listening is just as important. In fact, listening is half of a successful conversation—you take turns to talk, and everyone feels heard."

E. in northern central Asia, the area of present day Mongolia. Over centuries, people migrated south into Tibet and China, in the provinces of Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, and Hunan. For several thousand years, the Hmong lived relatively independently while paying tribute to the Chinese government. However, under the oppression of the armies of the last dynasty in China, the Hmong rose in rebellion. In the 1800s, faced with political persecution, depleted soil fertility and increasing population pressure, some Hmong migrated into Southeast Asia. They settled in the mountains of northern Burma, Thailand, Laos, and Vietnam. After the 1975 communist takeover in Laos, Hmong soldiers and family fled Laos to refugee camps in Thailand. Some Hmong remained in the Thai camps, while many resettled in other parts of the world."

"text": "\"Setting up a Local Area Network Using Red Hat Linux to connect two or more computers Darrick Addison Published on February 01, 2001Facebook Twitter Linked In Google+ E-mail this page5Linux is increasingly popular in the computer networking/telecommunications industry. Acquiring the Linux operating system is a relatively simple and inexpensive task since virtually all of the source code can be downloaded from several different FTP or HTTP sites on the Internet. In addition, the most recent version of Red Hat Linux can be purchased from computer retail stores for between $25 and $50, depending on whether you purchase the standard or full version. The retail brand is indeed a worthwhile investment (vs. the free FTP or HTTP versions) since valuable technical support is included directly from the Red Hat Linux engineers for at least a year. This can be very helpful if, for instance, you can not resolve an installation/configuration problem after consulting the Red Hat Linux manuals. This article describes how to put together a Local Area Network (LAN) consisting of two or more computers using the Red Hat Linux 6.2 operating system. A LAN is a communications network that interconnects a variety of devices and provides a means for exchanging information among those devices. The size and scope of a LAN is usually small, covering a single building or group of buildings. In a LAN, modems and phone lines are not required, and the computers should be close enough to run a network cable between them. For each computer that will participate in the LAN, you'll need a network interface card (NIC) to which the network cable will be attached."

But these fault tolerant systems always come with a heavy cost. Hence, there is need of an application which provides these facilities and is also cost effective. A high availability solution can ensure that the failure of any component of the solution does not cause the application and its data to be unavailable to the user community. This is achieved through the elimination, or masking, of both planned and unplanned downtime by eliminating single points of failure. Also, there is no specialized hardware required to make an application highly available. Power HA does not perform some administrative tasks like backups, time synchronization, and any application specific configuration. Figure 1 is an illustration of the failover capacity. When one server goes down, the other takes over. Figure 1."

( 19 printed pages) Covers: Introduction Classes, Objects, and Clients Implementation Inheritance What Is Polymorphism? Problems Associated with Implementation Inheritance Using Interfaces with Visual Basic Why Use Interfaces? Designing Applications with User-defined Interfaces Summary Introduction Getting a grasp of interface-based programming is really tough. To gain an appreciation for this style of programming, you must leave behind old habits and intuitions about writing code and look back at the evolution of object-oriented programming (OOP) and computer science over the past decade—a Darwinian saga of how the interface has made modern software designs more fit for survival. For software to survive in the ever-changing jungle of the production environment, it must have three distinct characteristics: reusability, maintainability, and extensibility. This article will provide a general overview of interface-based programming and examine these characteristics. The Component Object Model (COM) is founded on the idea of interface-based programming; COM would have no meaning without the concept of the interface. If you are a Visual Basic programmer who is trying to understand how COM really works, you should spend the time to learn how and why interfaces are so valuable in object-oriented software design."

This guide is operating system agnostic, but should be very helpful when implementing features and services that utilize networking on your server. Networking Glossary Before we begin discussing networking with any depth, we must define some common terms that you will see throughout this guide, and in other guides and documentation regarding networking. These terms will be expanded upon in the appropriate sections that follow: Connection: In networking, a connection refers to pieces of related information that are transfered through a network. This generally infers that a connection is built before the data transfer (by following the procedures laid out in a protocol) and then is deconstructed at the at the end of the data transfer. Packet: A packet is, generally speaking, the most basic unit that is transfered over a network. When communicating over a network, packets are the envelopes that carry your data (in pieces) from one end point to the other."

Wea The Wea were a Miami-Illinois-speaking tribe originally located in western Indiana, closely related to the Miami. The name Wea is used today as the a shortened version of their numerous recorded names. The Wea name for themselves in their own language is waayaahtanwa, derived from waayaahtanonki, 'place of the whirlpool', their name where they were first recorded being seen and is where they were living at that time. The different spellings of their name is numerous, as they were made by different settlers from different language and educational backgrounds. One French version is Ouiatenon; another Ouiateno; there were Wea villages, whose sites are now known as Lafayette and Terre Haute, Indiana, respectively. In 2004 the Indiana Historical Bureau installed a marker commemorating the Wea Village in Terre Haute and its living descendants. The Wea spoke a dialect of Miami, the same language as the Miami Tribe, both from the Algonquian languages.see more »Couldn't find the full form or full meaning of WEA?

These languages include those from language families such as Carib, Arawakan and others. Except for Kalina/Kari’ña (Carib), lokono (Arawak), and Warao, most of the other languages once spoken here are now extinct, both here and elsewhere on the American continent. The 11 languages below were just a few of the languages spoken in Tobago and Trinidad at one time, but today none is spoken natively in these islands. Languages of the Carib family include the following (those in bold are still living languages): Kalina (Carib) (7,500 speakers across Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, French Guiana and Brazil)Carinepagoto Chaima (Chayma)Nepoio (nepuyo) (related to Mapoyo of Venezuela)Yao Languages of the Ta-Arawakan or Ta-Maipuran family included the following: Lokono/Arawak (2,500 speakers across Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname and French Guiana)Shebaio (Shebayo)Igneri Other language families include:• Warao, a language isolate (33,000 speakers across Venezuela, Guyana and Suriname)Kalipunian Chaguaneand possibly many more The numbers of speakers noted here, according to Ethnologue, may be outdated or incorrect, and may not necessarily reflect the actual size of the groups in these five mainland countries. A recent census in Venezuela will soon confirm exact numbers, as there are more than 7,500 Kari’ña for Venezuela alone, and more than 33,000 Warao for Venezuela alone. In addition, Marie-France Patte notes that only 700 of 2,051 Surinamese Arawaks speak the language, 150 to 200 out of 1,500 French Guianese Arawaks speak the language, and that there are 15,000 Guyanese Arawaks. This is often because not all members of all groups are native speakers, and so the figures are generally tentative. It should also be noted many of the groups live on borders and move freely between and among these different modern political entities. Further, not all modern researchers and scholars agree and continue to debate various aspects and classifications of this vast and ancient subject of Amerindian peoples, cultures and languages."

"text": "Abstract This article presents a collection of papers on family life amongst Torres Strait Islanders. It begins with a paper by Paul Ban, a consultant engaged by the Torres Strait community, reviewing the traditional adoption practice of the Islanders, followed by a discussion of the legal recognition of customary adoption. Adoption involves the permanent transfer of a child from one extended family member to another. The next paper briefly describes the history of Torres Strait Islanders since European contact, their traditional culture and languages and the geography of the Torres Strait Islands. The final paper by Steve Mam, Mc Rose Elu, Ivy Trevallion, and Allan Reid, uses the coconut palm tree as a metaphor for Islander family life. Each part of the tree is used to describe a principle such as the roots of the tree signify the foundation and heritage of family life and the leaves of the tree depict the extended family. Torres Strait Islanders are indigenous Australians who have had a low profile in the wider Australian consciousness until the Mabo decision was handed down by the High Court on 3 June 1992. Eddie Mabo was a Torres Strait Islander originally from Murray Island in the Torres Strait, and had won a case against the Queensland government in which he and two other plaintiffs were legally recognised as the traditional owners of their land. The media has chosen to focus on the impact of the dismissal of Terra Nullis on the mainland Aboriginal community and the impact of the decision for Torres Strait Islanders has received little coverage. This article is intended to help readers understand some of the traditions and customs of Torres Strait Islanders regarding their family life."

Gross Anatomy of the Kidney The kidneys are a paired organ; one kidney weighs 120–200 g. The normal kidney measures 10–12 cm vertically, 5–7 cm transversely and 3 cm a.p. The outer surface can be divided into anterior side, dorsal side, upper pole and lower pole. The lateral surface is convex. The medial surface is concave, deeply grooved ( renal sinus) and forms the renal hilum. The ureter/renal pelvis, renal artery, renal vein, lymphatic vessels and nerves enter or exit through the renal hilum the kidney. Fascias of the kidney The kidneys have a tough organ capsule ( Capsula fibrosa ), which follows medially the renal parenchyma and does not surround the renal hilum. The kidneys are surrounded by a layer of perinephric fat ( Capsula adiposa ). The perinephric fat is surrounded by a connective tissue sheath, Gerota's fascia (Fascia renalis). Gerota's fascia surrounds the kidney, including perinephric fat and the adrenal gland."

"text": "THE NOTOCHORDBefore there vertebrae, there was a notochord. Notochords evolved in invertebrates known as chordates and there are a few living examples of primitive chordates, such as lancets and tunicates. The most primitive fish today, the jawless fish, do not have full-fledged vertebrae, and still depend on the notochord as their primary axial support. Even once vertebrates began to develop vertebrae, these structures arose in pieces around a notochord which still ran uninterrupted from head to tail. Human embryos possess a notochord running from head to tail as their initial longitudinal support. During the fetal development of higher vertebrates (including humans), the notochord develops cranially until it reaches the site of the mouth. It establishes the long axis of the embryo, provides support, and sends signals to surrounding tissues. The nerve chord develops dorsal to it and vertebrae develop around it. In adults, remnants of the notochord form the nucleus pulposus of the intervertebral disks and additional remnants in some individuals may cause benign or malignant chordomas. ( Moore, p. 69-70)."

"text": "\"Radiographic interpretation of the normal thorax (Proceedings)Apr 01, 2008By Martha Moon Larsen, DVM, MS, DACVRCVC IN WASHINGTON, D. C. PROCEEDINGS1 2 3 Next Exposure techniques for the thorax Thoracic radiographs should initially be evaluated for positioning, technique (exposure factors), and the presence of any artifacts that might affect interpretation. Radiographic quality may be the single most overlooked factor in accurate interpretation of thoracic radiographs. The thorax presents a unique anatomy necessitating specific technical consideration. Because of the inherent high contrast present in the thorax, a low contrast, long grey scale technique is needed to help minimize inherent contrast and allow visualization of a wide range of opacities. This can be accomplished by using high k Vp, low m As exposure settings. The low m As setting will decrease the potential for motion artifact. Less than 1/60th of a second time exposure is preferred. The high k Vp setting decreases contrast, and provides added latitude and room for technical error (Digital radiology systems accomplish this same thing). A good technique will allow faint visualization of the spine through the cardiac shadow on ventrodorsal (VD) or dorsoventral (DV) views. As for any other body part, a grid is necessary if the thorax is thicker than 10 cm."

"text": "Science & Mathematics Medicine Whats the difference between the abdominal aorta and the inferior vena cava? Follow Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: The inferior vena cava carries deoxygenated blood from your lower body (so legs, reproductive organs, bowels, etc) to the right atrium. It does not continue on to the superior vena cava because the right atrium happens to be in the way. The abdominal aorta is a direct continuation of the thoracic aorta (same vessel, changes name because it enters the abdominal cavity). It is the main pathway for oxygenated blood down to the lower body. It continues on until it branches into the iliac arteries and the internal and external femoral arteries.daleksunited · 9 years ago0 0 Comment For the best answers, search on this site https://shorturl.im/avh E9 The way you listed the flow of blood is exactly the way it goes, including the valves. Remember the pulmonary veins are colored red and the pulmonary arteries are colored blue due to oxygen content, although veins always carry blood to the heart, and arteries from. The only difference between the ascending and descending aorta is the direction of the artery. The ascending aorta is only the area from the aortic semilunar valve to the aortic trunk. The descending is the part of the artery that takes it down the abdomen."

"text": "\"Chylothorax in Cats What is chylothorax? Chylothorax is a relatively rare condition in the cat in which lymphatic fluid or chyle accumulates in the pleural cavity. The pleural cavity lies between the lungs and the inner lining of the chest wall. Normally, only about a teaspoon (5 millilitres) of clear fluid is present in this space. The purpose of the fluid is to keep the surface of the lungs lubricated so that they do not adhere to the chest wall. When chylothorax is present, up to a quart (litre) of fluid may be present in this space. When a diagnosis of chylothorax is made, two abnormalities have developed:1. A pleural effusion is present. This means that an abnormal amount of fluid has accumulated in the pleural space surrounding the lungs. This accumulation limits the cat's ability to expand the lungs completely, forcing it to breathe rapidly and shallowly."

The superficial veins are placed immediately beneath the integument between the two layers of superficial fascia. The deep veins accompany the arteries, and constitute the venæ comitantes of those vessels. Both sets are provided with valves, which are more numerous in the deep than in the superficial veins. 1The Superficial Veins of the Upper Extremity The superficial veins of the upper extremity are the digital, metacarpal, cephalic, basilic, median. 2Digital Veins. — The dorsal digital veins pass along the sides of the fingers and are joined to one another by oblique communicating branches.

The clary sage has a hint of peppermint in the mix, too. Clary sage absolute is even more 'pepperminty' and fresh and sweeter than the clary sage oil. Both of those are, as mentioned, sweeter, and fresher than the dalmation sage, which has that bitter, biting, aromatic edge to it. Clary sage and dalmation sage are quite different both chemically and aromatically. The dalmation sage is high in thujone (which is also quite prominent in the various artemisia oils (wormwood, absinthe, etc), and also in cedar leaf oil. Be careful, as thujone is a neurotoxin. You wouldn't want to use clary sage as a stand in for dalmation sage if you are looking for the scent of sage you smell in a spice jar.

"text": "The Crystal Vaults Comprehensive Illustrated Guide to Crystals Your On-Line Guide to The Healing Energies, Metaphysical Properties,Legendary Uses and Meaningof Bloodstone (Heliotrope)Introduction to the Meaning and Uses of Bloodstone In the ancient world, Bloodstone (Heliotrope) was considered to be the most beautiful of the Jaspers, a deep, earthy green gem emboldened with spots of bright red. Called the Sun Stone, and later Christ’s Stone, its energy carries the purity of blood and inherently speaks of life and birth, vitality and strength, passion and courage. As a talisman it is both mystical and magical, and its virtues are protective and nurturing. The most widely known legend of this stone comes from the Middle Ages and claims the “Blood Stone” was formed at the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, when the blood of his wounds fell onto the dark green earth and turned to stone. Another version declares the blood of Christ, which flowed from the fatal spear-thrust, fell upon a Green Jasper lying at the foot of the Cross, and from this sprang the Bloodstone variety of Jasper. Today, as then, Bloodstone is regarded as a gem of noble sacrifice and can offer courage and solace to all who are called to give of themselves for the good of others. It elicits the highest, most altruistic character of those who wear or carry it. [ Mella, 75] [Fernie, 183] [Kunz, 267] [Simmons, 74]The Blood Stone, however, was treasured long before the time of Christ, known in antiquity as Heliotrope, the Sun Stone. From the Greek helios, meaning “sun,” and trepein, “to attract,” Heliotrope signified “sun-turning,” and legends were attributed to this stone for the belief that when placed in the rays of the setting sun, or immersed in water, it turned the reflection of the sun to blood-red. Its use for healing, and its connection to blood and detoxification of the organs, dates back five thousand years to Mesopotamia."

During this time, she grows quite attached to the young dogs.

A sizable number of twentieth-century philosophers have warned about the great difficulty—even the impossibility—of defining existentialism adequately. Some have even criticized the mere attempt to do so as inherently contradictory. Nevertheless, the very same philosophers have advanced, from the 1940s to the present, a rich variety of very informative and interesting answers to the question \"\"What is Existentialism?\"\".

"text": "04. May, 2015 0 Comments Introduction The year 1300 was a Jubilee year of celebration for the Western Church, in which Pope Boniface VIII offered ‘remission of guilt and punishment’ to all confessors of sin throughout Christendom. 1 In this year, Enrico Scrovegni purchased the site on which the Arena Chapel now stands. Enrico enjoyed wealth and position in Padua, gained through usury, his family’s business. Although usury was legal at the time, in Christian terms it was sinful, leading to eternal damnation if Enrico did not take steps to save his soul. He had temporarily given up usury by 1300 and built the chapel in the following years as a glorious bid for divine forgiveness. He employed Giotto di Bondone and his workshop to decorate the epic blank canvas of the interior. The Virgin Mary is central to the chapel’s history and fresco programme. The site of the chapel was formerly a Roman arena, which had become a locale for Christian Annunciation enactments in the town. 2 The Annunciation scene is prominently placed in the overall narrative sequence in which the lives of Mary, her parents Joachim and Anna, and Christ are depicted wrapping around three registers of the chapel walls."

Thought to be extinct until 1994, they are now fairly common in captivity. These geckos, from the New Caledonian Islands near Australia, make excellent pets. They are extremely hardy, easy to keep and handle, and come in a variety of beautiful colors and patterns. Gargoyle Geckos ( Rhacodactylus auriculatus) are very similar in size, care and breeding to Cresteds. These geckos are quickly catching on with gecko enthusiasts. Color and patterns such as striped, orange/red blotch, and others are becoming available. The following is a brief summary of their care, maintenance, and breeding. Unless noted, the information below will work for both Cresteds and Gargoyles: Acclimating New Geckos: When you receive your new crested gecko, it may take some time for it to adjust to its new surroundings.

"text": "\"Axial Ageupdate Axial Age or Axial Period ( Ger. Achsenzeit, \"\"axis time\"\") is a term coined by German philosopher Karl Jaspers to describe the period from 800 to 200 BC, during which, according to Jaspers, similar revolutionary thinking appeared in India, China and the Occident. The period is also sometimes referred to as the Axis Age. [ 1]Jaspers, in his Vom Ursprung und Ziel der Geschichte ( The Origin and Goal of History ), identified a number of key Axial Age thinkers as having had a profound influence on future philosophies and religions, and identified characteristics common to each area from which those thinkers emerged. Jaspers saw in these developments in religion and philosophy a striking parallel without any obvious direct transmission of ideas from one region to the other, having found no recorded proof of any extensive intercommunication between Ancient Greece, the Middle East, India, and China. Jaspers held up this age as unique, and one to which the rest of the history of human thought might be compared. Jaspers' approach to the culture of the middle of the first millennium BC has been adopted by other scholars and academics, and has become a point of discussion in the history of religion. Contents1 A pivotal age1.1 Thinkers and movements1.2 Characteristics of the Axial Age2 The term and the theory3 References4 Further reading5 External links A pivotal age Jaspers argued that during the Axial Age \"\"the spiritual foundations of humanity were laid simultaneously and independently in China, India, Persia, Judea, and Greece.

Vampiric entities have been recorded in most cultures; the term vampire, previously an arcane subject, was popularised in the West in the early 19th century, after an influx of vampire superstition into Western Europe from areas where vampire legends were frequent, such as the Balkans and Eastern Europe; [1] local variants were also known by different names, such as shtriga in Albania, vrykolakas in Greece and strigoi in Romania. This increased level of vampire superstition in Europe led to mass hysteria and in some cases resulted in corpses being staked and people being accused of vampirism.

[ 2] [3]The charismatic and sophisticated vampire of modern fiction was born in 1819 with the publication of The Vampyre by John Polidori; the story was highly successful and arguably the most influential vampire work of the early 19th century.

You cannot watch a film like Van Helsing with out taking it with a pinch of salt - it is a movie with vampires, werewolves and the frankenstine monster in at all at once for goodness sake. So you cannot go in to it thinking in a literal sense. You have to accept that it is not going to be some ground breaking epic and that it is just a bit of fun - but at the end of the day that doesn't matter, because if you go in with the right attitude and you enjoy it, then what does it matter that it is a bit \"\"off\"\" in places.

Credit: Public domain Few names have cast more terror into the human heart than Dracula. The legendary vampire, created by author Bram Stoker in his 1897 novel of the same name, has inspired countless horror movies, television shows and other bloodcurdling tales of vampires. Though Dracula is a purely fictional creation, Stoker named his infamous character after a real person who happened to have a taste for blood: Vlad III, Prince of Wallachia or — as he is better known — Vlad the Impaler. The morbid nickname is a testament to the Wallachian prince's favorite way of dispensing with his enemies. But other than having the same name, the two Draculas don't really have much in common, according to historians who have studied the link between Stoker's vampire count and Vlad III. The real Dracula By most accounts, Vlad III was born in 1431 in what is now Transylvania, the central region of modern-day Romania. However, the link between Vlad the Impaler and Transylvania is tenuous, according to Florin Curta, a professor of medieval history and archaeology at the University of Florida.\"\" [ Stoker's] Dracula is linked to Transylvania, but the real, historic Dracula — Vlad III — never owned anything in Transylvania,\"\" Curta told Live Science.

Vampires are believed to hang around crossroads on St. George's Day, April 23, and the eve of St. Andrew, November 29. The area is also home to Bram Stoker's Dracula, and it's easy to get caught up in the tale while driving along winding roads through dense, dark, ancient forests and over mountain passes. Dracula is literally translated in Gaelic as Drac Ullah meaning bad blood. Tales of the supernatural had been circulating in Romanian folklore for centuries when Irish writer Bram Stoker picked up the thread and spun it into a golden tale of ghoulishness that has never been out of print since its first publication in 1897. To research his immortal tale, Stoker immersed himself in the history, lore and legends of Transylvania, which he called a \"\"whirlpool for the imagination. \"\" Bram Stoker's Dracula novel was published in Romanian for the first time in 1990. Count Dracula, a fictional character in the Dracula novel, was inspired by one of the best-known figures of Romanian history, Vlad Dracula, nicknamed Vlad Tepes (Vlad the Impaler), who was the ruler of Walachia at various times from 1456-1462. Born in 1431 in Sighisoara, he resided all his adult life in Walachia, except for periods of imprisonment at Pest and Visegrad (in Hungary)."

By Roger Luckhurst27 July 2015The first season of the US TV series The Strain ended with The Master, source of New York’s vampire infection and one of the oldest vampires in existence, escaping our human heroes again. And he did so by scampering across roof-tops in full daylight – something vampire lore says most bloodsuckers can never do. We were all left wondering: what fresh hells, what weird mutations of the vampire rules will season 2 bring? The series is based on the collaborative novels of screenwriter Chuck Hogan and major horror and science-fiction film director Guillermo del Toro. The Strain does a neat update and twist on Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Instead of Count Dracula’s entry via a spectral boat, we get a plane-load of (un)dead plague victims in New York. Instead of Dracula’s lair in Piccadilly, just a stone’s throw from Buckingham Palace, The Master nests in the old tunnels under New York’s Freedom Tower. Instead of Stoker’s vampire hunter Van Helsing, we have the cantankerous Abraham Setrakian, who first encountered The Master in the Auschwitz concentration camp in 1944."

"text": "Themes<< Prev Section Page 1of 2Next Page >Themes are the fundamental and often universal ideas explored in a literary work. The Consequences of Modernity Early in the novel, as Harker becomes uncomfortable with his lodgings and his host at Castle Dracula, he notes that “unless my senses deceive me, the old centuries had, and have, powers of their own which mere ‘modernity’ cannot kill.” Here, Harker voices one of the central concerns of the Victorian era. The end of the nineteenth century brought drastic developments that forced English society to question the systems of belief that had governed it for centuries. Darwin’s theory of evolution, for instance, called the validity of long-held sacred religious doctrines into question. Likewise, the Industrial Revolution brought profound economic and social change to the previously agrarian England. Though Stoker begins his novel in a ruined castle—a traditional Gothic setting—he soon moves the action to Victorian London, where the advancements of modernity are largely responsible for the ease with which the count preys upon English society. When Lucy falls victim to Dracula’s spell, neither Mina nor Dr. Seward—both devotees of modern advancements—are equipped even to guess at the cause of Lucy’s predicament. Only Van Helsing, whose facility with modern medical techniques is tempered with open-mindedness about ancient legends and non-Western folk remedies, comes close to understanding Lucy’s affliction. In Chapter XVII, when Van Helsing warns Seward that “to rid the earth of this terrible monster we must have all the knowledge and all the help which we can get,” he literally means all the knowledge."

This character is often confused with Vlad Tepes (Vlad the Impaler), sometimes known as Vlad Dracul, who was a Walachian Prince with a castle, now in ruins, located in the Principality of Wallachia. Because Bran Castle is the only castle in all of Transylvania that actually fits Bram Stoker’s description of Dracula’s Castle, it is known throughout the world as Dracula’s Castle. Chapter 2, May 5 of “Dracula” describes the Count’s castle as “. . . on the very edge of a terrific precipice . . . with occasionally a deep rift where there is a chasm [with] silver threads where the rivers wind in deep gorges through the forests. ”Bram Stoker Bram Stoker never visited Romania. He depicted the imaginary Dracula’s castle based upon a description of Bran Castle that was available to him in turn-of-the-century Britain. Indeed, the imaginary depiction of Dracula’s Castle from the etching in the first edition of “Dracula” is strikingly similar to Bran Castle and no other in all of Romania. Stoker is widely purported to have used the illustration of Bran Castle in Charles Boner’s book, \"\"Transylvania: Its Product and Its People\"\", (London: Longmans, 1865) to describe his imaginary Dracula's Castle."

If the idea of famous black cat names that aren't quite as famous as say, Ray Charles, appeals to you, then characters might work. For example, characters from TV, movies, or literature work well (such as Sylvia and Isis, both from the original Star Trek series, or Pluto from Edgar Allan Poe's \"\"The Black Cat\"\"). Names like these are sure to spark dinnertime conversation. I can also see using the names of poets or writers themselves (Poe, for example). I've heard some folks suggest Lucifer or Satan.

We seek out and read Horror Novels. Unfortunately here, now, in modern times we are painfully short on fearful things, as a people we have no great war, and so we live in a time when finding our own fears is more important to our psyche than ever.

The price of both kinds of printers has dramatically dropped since the early 2000s. Manufacturers sell the printers cheap but charge owners exorbitant amounts for expensive ink or toner. To get the best value for your business, you should pay attention not only to the price of the printer but to costs of operation as well -- especially the cost of replacing ink cartridges. Advantages of Laser Printers Laser printers are faster than ink jet printers. Because they use toner which, unlike ink, never bleeds, laser printers usually produce higher quality print. Although replacing a laser printer's toner cartridge is expensive (as much as 50 percent of the cost of the printer), toner lasts so much longer than ink that a laser printer's cost per page tends to be low."

When the Open End (OE) process was commercialised, the future of conventional ring spinning system was questioned. However, it is now accepted that ring spinning will continue to remain important because of its versatility. In view of the long-term prospects of this versatile spinning system, manufacturers/researchers have further developed and incorporated innovation on conventional ring spinning system. One of the examples of such developments is 'Compact Spinning System'. With the installation of compacting system, the yarn quality is improved, mainly because of the less hairiness and incorporation of more fibres in the yarn body. Compact spinning system The demand from the modern machines is to run at higher speed, produce better quality product, which should be suitable for further processing and give benefit in the downstream processing. Importance also is given to reduce personnel/labour required, which may not be much relevant in countries like India where labour is much cheaper. Thus the innovations on the machines are incorporated keeping these factors in mind. Compact spinning is such a system where the yarn can be produced with higher speed, and b etter quality and which gives benefit in the downstream."

"text": "Types of Printers Printer - A device that prints text or illustrations on paper. There are many different types of printers. In terms of the technology utilized, printers fall into the following categories: Dot matrix: A type of impact printer that produces characters and illustrations by striking pins against an ink ribbon to print closely spaced dots in the appropriate shape. Dot-matrix printers are relatively expensive and do not produce high-quality output. However, they can print to multi-page forms (that is, carbon copies), something laser and ink-jet printers cannot do. Dot Matrix Printer Manufacturers include Epson, Okidata and Brother Dot-matrix printers vary in 3 important characteristics: Speed: Given in characters per second (cps), the speed can vary from about 50 to over 500 cps. Most dot-matrix printers offer different speeds depending on the quality of print desired. Print quality: Determined by the number of pins (the mechanisms that print the dots), it can vary from 9, 18 or 24 pins. The best dot-matrix printers (24 pins) can produce near letter-quality type, although you can still see a difference if you look closely. Ink: Dot Matrix Printer use ribbon for ink In addition to these characteristics, you should also consider the noise factor."

The types of printing: Digital Printing Flexography Letterpress Printing Offset Printing Rotogravure Screen Printing Digital Printing Digital printing is the reproduction of digital images on physical surface, such as common or photographic paper, film, cloth, plastic, etc. It can be differentiated from litho printing in many ways, some of which are;Every impression made onto the paper can be different, as opposed to making several hundred or thousand impressions of the same thing from one set of plates, as in traditional methods. The Ink or Toner does not absorb into the paper, as does conventional Ink, but forms a layer on the surface. It generally requires less waste in terms of chemicals used and paper wasted in set up. Printing at home or in an office or engineering environment is subdivided into:small format (up to ledger size paper sheets), as used in business offices and librarieswide format (up to 3' or 914mm wide rolls of paper), as used in drafting and design establishments. Some of the more common printing technologies areline printing — where pre-formed characters are applied to the paper by linesdaisy wheel — where pre-formed characters are applied individuallydot-matrix — which produces arbitrary patterns of dots with an array of printing studsheat transfer — like early fax machines or modern receipt printers that apply heat to special paper, which turns black to form the printed imageblueprint — and related chemical technologiesinkjet — including bubble-jet — where ink is sprayed onto the paper to create the desired imagelaser — where toner consisting primarily of polymer with pigment of the desired colours is melted and applied directly to the paper to create the desired image. Vendors typically stress the total cost to operate the equipment, involving complex calculations that include all cost factors involved in the operation as well as the capital equipment costs, amortization, etc. For the most part, toner systems beat inkjet in the long run, whereas inkjets are less expensive in the initial purchase price."

"text": "What is an Imaging Drum? Posted Friday, March 26th, 2010 by Robyn Warner. Tweet A laser printer has many components that make up the technology system used to quickly generate documents that meet a professional standard. The rollers pull the paper through and the toner actually makes the images and lettering visible to the human eye, but it is the imaging drum that is the central piece in these highly advanced printers. Also referred to as a drum unit and a photoreceptor assembly, the imaging drum is ultimately responsible for the transfer of printer toner and image or text to the paper. Initially, the drum receives a positive charge from the corona wire . The laser then writes on the drum, leaving a negative charge in the shape of the image or text that is being printed. The toner is attracted to this charge and clings to the imaging drum where the negative charge is. The rollers are then used to pull the paper through the machine, and the negative charge of the paper is stronger than that of the drum. As a result, the toner is pulled from the drum to the paper, creating a precise document in an efficient matter of time."

"text": "What is an Image Drum? The drum of a laser printer is responsible for transferring the toner and image or text to the paper. It has several different names, and you might hear it referred to as the image drum, imaging unit, drum unit or photoreceptor drum. For a drum to transfer the text and toner to the page, it first receives a positive charge from the corona wire. A laser writes over the drum and leaves a negative charge where the text and/or images will appear. Next, the paper is fed by the pickup rollers and receives a stronger negative charge that pulls the toner from the cartridge to the drum onto the paper. When the toner hits the drum, it sticks to the oppositely charged areas to create text and images. Because the laser writes on the drum for each print, the imaging unit goes through a lot of wear and tear and must be replaced after a certain amount of pages. Near replacement time, the drum unit begins to show signs of wear. If your drum is letting you know it’s time for a new unit, you’ll see black spots and/or lines on the pages and images will be lighter than normal."

When used in combination with the lithographic process, which is based on the repulsion of oil and water, the offset technique employs a flat ( planographic) image carrier on which the image to be printed obtains ink from ink rollers, while the non-printing area attracts a water-based film (called \"\"fountain solution\"\"), keeping the non-printing areas ink-free. The modern \"\"web\"\" process feeds a large reel of paper through a large press machine in several parts, typically for several metres, which then prints continuously as the paper is fed through. Development of the offset press came in two versions: in 1875 by Robert Barclay of England for printing on tin, and in 1904 by Ira Washington Rubel of the United States for printing on paper.

"text": "How a Laser Printer Works A laser printer unlike an inkjet printer uses a laser light beam for printing operations. It is also distinct from other printers because of its exceptional printing speed as well as highly accurate rendering. It utilizes a xerographic (a process of creating an image by the action of light on a specifically coated charged plate) printing. Some laser printers in the market can print a hundred colored pages and two hundred non-colored pages every minute. Resolution is a key characteristic of laser printer, measured in dots per inch (dpi). The offered resolutions range from minimum 300 dpi to a maximum of 1,200 dpi. Some laser printers attain higher resolutions with an exceptional technique usually recognized as resolution enhancement. Components of a Laser Printer A basic laser printer assembly has six key components. Image processor with its own memory: This image processor is programmed to convert text data into raster images (a horizontal stripe of dots across the page is called as a raster line) which are then stored in the raster memory, ready for processing and printing. This image processor is also known as Raster Image Processor (RIP)."

Have you ever looked inside a laser printer and wondered just how it takes what’s on your computer screen and puts it on paper? Oddly, in this age of fancy digital devices, static electricity is the key to making a laser printer work. It all starts with a computer file that is sent to the printer, either over a parallel or USB cable or via a wired or wireless network. First, the printer’s processor turns the data into what’s called a raster image that is composed of millions of tiny dots on a line by line basis. For instance, a solid area for a 300 dot per inch image requires 90,000 dots per square inch, or 8 million dots for a sheet of paper. Up the resolution to 600 dots per inch and that number rises to 360,000 dots per square inch or 32 million per page. Next, a precise laser beam scans back and forth over the printer’s photoconductive drum as the printer draws in a clean sheet of paper. A special rotating mirror does the hard work of sending the beam to where it needs to be. The key is that wherever the laser’s beam hits the drum, it selectively removes the static charge on the drum on that exact spot. Some printers use light emitting diodes instead of a laser to imprint the image on the drum."

Echinacea angustifolia & Echinacea purpurea by Ellen Evert Hopman Echinacea angustifolia & Echinacea purpurea by Ellen Evert Hopman Echinacea is a perennial plant native to the American prairie that is now cultivated in gardens over most of the continental United States. It resembles a large pink daisy with a bristly, raised center. This attractive ornamental now comes in shades from purple to white. It flowers from June to October and should be a standard in any herb lovers garden. Echinacea angustifolia is the variety of echinacea that has been found to be most effective in lab studies. The part used is the fleshy root which is simmered in the usual proportions of two teaspoons of herb per cup of water for about twenty minutes in a non-aluminum pot with a tight fitting lid. Another variety, called Echinacea purpurea, is also used medicinally. The part used on this plant is the flower and the leaf. Echinacea purpurea has thin, thread-like roots while the more desirable variety, the Angustifolia, has thick, fleshy ones making them easy to distinguish. Native American herbalists taught white settlers the uses of this plant which is now recognized as one of our most important immune boosters and blood purifiers."

Believe it or not, those healthy fruits, veggies, and whole grains we try to pack in our diets may do more than just feed our bodies well—many of them are considered to have anti-inflammatory properties. Sometimes inflammation is a good thing, we’ll give you that—it protects our body when we’ve been injured—but it can also be painful. ( Think asthma and arthritis, inflamed sore throats, and cuts or scrapes.) While some have linked certain foods (including chocolate, eggs, wheat, meat, and corn) to causing inflammation, there’s also evidence that a few select delectables could help prevent it, too. Here are eight foods that research suggests may actually help reduce pain.1. Coffee Just one more excuse to grab that second cup of Joe! Research suggests caffeine can reduce pain in those suffering from exercise-induced muscular injury and pain. Not only that, when taken with a standard dose of pain reliever (ibuprofen, for example), one study found that a 100mg to 130mg caffeine supplement — equal to about the amount of caffeine in one cup of coffee — increased pain relief.2. Ginger Ginger is basically a wonder root."

Herbs for Sinus Infection Though many people think to make a doctor’s appointment when they get a sinus infection, not so many people look to sinus infection herbs for relief. There are so many beneficial herbs that can provide as much relief as prescription drugs, without the side effects of prescription drugs as well. Because most sinus infections are caused by bacteria, the prescribing of antibiotics for sinus infection is common practice for many doctors. The type of antibiotic used for the treatment of sinus infection can depend largely on the specific type of bacterial infection the patient is suffering from. When it comes to sinus infection herbs, many are utilized for their antibacterial properties. In the world of medicinal herbs, there are some powerhouse herbs that hold anti-viral properties and well as anti-bacterial powers. Synthetic anti-viral drugs, on the other hand, are quite new by contrast. Because of this, we don’t know as much about the deeper effects of synthetic anti-viral drugs.

In this page, our immune system expert Dr. Jen Tan addresses the causes of flu induced muscle and joint aches and discusses the herbal treatments available to relieve any pain or discomfort. An introduction to aching joints and flu Aching joints and muscles are two of the most common symptoms of the flu, and are part of the reason why you feel so much worse than when suffering from the common cold. Joints may feel stiff and sore, but you should be able to fully move them, even if it is achy to do so. Additionally, they should not be red or swollen, so if you experience these symptoms, then it is worth seeking medical attention to rule out any underlying causes of your joint pain. Why does the flu make my joints ache? When you are already suffering from fever, coughs and headaches, it seems unfair that aching joints should be added to the list of symptoms.

These gases can accumulate in your body; they diminish oxygen sources, and can cause respiratory conditions. The ingredients in cigarettes, including nicotine, are highly addictive, and withdrawal symptoms can immediately occur after you stop smoking. Signs that you are suffering from nicotine withdrawal include mood swings, headaches, cravings to smoke, depression, fatigue and an increase in appetite. First Detoxification Stepscredit: AAAAAAA AAA>AA/i Stock/Getty Images Quit smoking The first step to nicotine detoxification involves the act of quitting cigarette smoking. Patches for nicotine are not recommended during the nicotine-detox process simply because the nicotine is getting into your body another way--through the 24-hour exposure to the patch. After roughly two hours from the moment you quit smoking, the levels of nicotine in your body begin to drop considerably.

It is also grown in western States, as well as in Canada and Europe. Several species of the echinacea plant are used to make medicine from its leaves, flower, and root. Echinacea was used in traditional herbal remedies by the Great Plains Indian tribes. Later, settlers followed the Indians' example and began using echinacea for medicinal purposes as well. For a time, echinacea enjoyed official status as a result of being listed in the US National Formulary from 1916-1950. However, use of echinacea fell out of favor in the United States with the discovery of antibiotics. But now, people are becoming interested in echinacea again because some antibiotics don't work as well as they used to against certain bacteria. Echinacea is widely used to fight infections, especially the common cold, and the flu. Some people take echinacea at the first sign of a cold, hoping they will be able to keep the cold from developing."

"text": "THE BLOG 07/16/2013 12:23 pm ET Updated Dec 06, 20176 Tips That Will Get You the Best Food in Greece By Elena Paravantes RDSo it is officially summer in Greece and that means tourist season. Athens, the islands and Greece in general are filled with visitors, and if you are one of them, here are six tips to help you get the best food experience.1. Order the right things at touristy places. Yes we all like to visit and eat at the known touristy places in any country. But as cliché as it sounds sometimes they are just that — “touristy” — and you shouldn’t settle for touristy food. But here is what you should do if you are in touristy area — in Athens it is Plaka and in other places it is not hard to identify them: there are usually a bunch of taverns gathered together with waiters trying to get you in and with large menus that look like books. Now I personally like the ambience of being in a touristy area in Greece. It usually is pretty (e.g. Plaka) and lively, but if you want to eat there, make sure you choose the right things so you are not disappointed. Safe (yet common) choices (dishes that are really hard to mess up) are: Greek Salad Tzatziki Fava (yellow split pea dip)Boiled Greens (Horta) accompanied with feta cheese Anchovies or Sardines-marinated or salted Lathera: Cooked vegetables in oil (see #2)Stewed Meat (see #4)*Avoid fried things such as meatballs, small fish, fries not because they are fried but because many of these restaurants pre-fry these foods and then just warm them up. As a result you will be eating mushy and not crispy food."

The foods of ancient Greece were similar to foods we eat today but did not include many that have become important parts of modern Greek cooking. For example, tomatoes, peppers, potatoes, and bananas didn't arrive in Greece until after the discovery of the Americas in the 15th century, because that's where those foods originated. Lemons, oranges, eggplant, and rice also arrived later. But the ancient Greeks enjoyed a varied diet. Vegetables, legumes, and fruit were the mainstay, and fish was a favorite. Hunting brought game to the menu.

Within this wide swath are cooking traditions from East Asia (China, Japan, Korea), Southeast Asia (Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia), and South Asia (India, Pakistan). Because of the term's vast geographic mass, ingredients used from region to region can be mind-boggingly similar—and varied.

Posted Jul 17, 2011SHARETWEETEMAILMORESource: Ever wonder why English speakers on either side of the Atlantic call their vegetables by such different names? What we call zucchini, they call courgette. Our snow pea is their mangetout. What we know as squash, they know as marrow. And what we call eggplant, they call aubergine, which to many ears sounds much more elegant. I for one, though, like that the glossy pear-shaped vegetable I cook so often for dinner should be called eggplant. It's a curious name considering that the large purple variety so vastly outnumbers the smaller white one which John Gerard described in his sixteenth-century Herball, or General Historie of Plants as having \"\"the bignesse of a Swans egge\"\" and which obviously gave the entire species the name we know it by today here in the United States—not to mention in Canada, New Zealand, and Australia where the varieties once cultivated were yellow or white and shaped like goose eggs. Source: When it wasn't being compared to a swan's egg, the eggplant was sometimes referred to as a \"\"madde apple,\"\" no doubt because it belongs to the nightshade family which has long been known to include many highly toxic plants. Folk wisdom held that the eggplant would make the eater go mad."

My mother painted our living room in a glorious eggplant. The fabrics in the room were barkcloth with a light gray background and pale yellow and purple lillies with greenery.

In the late '80s, when I first started to research the origins of various popular Greek dishes, I was convinced that the current version of béchamel-topped moussaka was invented during the golden years of the Ottoman Empire, probably in the spectacular kitchens of the Topkapi Palace, in Istanbul. Maybe a creative French-educated cook enriched the traditional Middle Eastern dish with the classic French sauce, I thought. But further investigation revealed that before the early 20th Century there was no moussaka as we know it today. The exclusion of spices and even herbs from the spicy and fragrant traditional foods resulted in the almost insipid dishes many Greek restaurants still serve. It is not surprising that the most popular Greek dishes throughout the world are not the chickpea or bean soup, the yellow split peas, or the stewed mixed seasonal vegetables and greens that most Greeks ate regularly up until the late 1960s."

But anyone visiting Greece would wonder exactly what is meant by the Mediterranean diet for while those of us outside the Med have been eating more whole grains, extra virgin olive oil and fresh vegetables, the Greeks have been eating more meat, turning a once or twice a week special occasion food to a daily affair, sometimes twice daily. As the Greeks become more affluent they eat more meat. There is still some evidence that the good stuff they eat more than makes up for the drawbacks of a meat-heavy diet in the same way that people wonder how the French can eat such rich food and not be obese.

The origin of the first pickle is lost in the sands of time, but archaeological evidence dates them back to 2400 in Mesopotamia. From these origins, pickles spread quickly through Asia, Egypt and Greece. These days the word pickle brings to mind spicy, sweet, or sour pickled cucumbers. However, at the time pickled cucumbers originated, ancient man used the process of pickling to preserve many types of food including fruits, vegetables, meat, eggs, and fish. The brine solution that imparts the sour taste to pickled cucumbers also works to inhibit the growth of bacteria. While many cultures still pickle various types of foods, most have not caught on the way pickled cucumbers have. This may be in part because when pickled whole cucumbers are easy to hold while eating. In Asia, the cucumber was often used in kimchi, a pickled dish still eaten today that also often uses cabbage, eggplant, and radishes. Ancient Egyptians loved pickles and Cleopatra claimed that pickles helped her maintain her beauty."

Loose Interpretation - The Federalist believed in a \"\"loose interpretation\"\" meaning that if the constitution does not specifically say you cannot do something, than you can do it. The Constitution to them is not set in stone, so it can be viewed in multiple ways. This creates a stronger central government with more power to do different things.

Federalists realized that the Articles of Confederation were too weak and after the scare of Shay's rebellion, they realized that the government did not have enough power over their people. They did not have a strong enough army and they did not want their own people to revolt and not have enough government control over the people."

"text": "Elastic Clause The Elastic Clause, also known as the “ Necessary and Proper Clause ,” is perhaps the most important clause in the U. S. Constitution, though it is also the most controversial. The Clause gives Congress the authority to use powers not explicitly named in the Constitution, if they are necessary in order to perform its responsibilities as outlined in the Constitution. In other words, Congress may do whatever is “necessary and proper” to do its job. To explore this concept, consider the following Elastic Clause definition. Definition of Elastic Clause Noun A clause within the United States Constitution that grants Congress the power to pass whatever laws are deemed “necessary and proper” to help Congress to carry out the enumerated powers. Origin1788 Ratification of the U. S. Constitution (the term Elastic Clause is an Americanism adopted in the early 20th century)What is the Elastic Clause Located in Article I, Section 8, Clause 18 of the U. S. Constitution, the Elastic Clause is so named because of the flexibility it gives to Congress when it comes to exercising its enumerated powers. Like an elastic band, the Clause can be metaphorically “stretched” to meet Congress’ needs, or “contracted” to rein in Congress, if necessary. The Elastic Clause specifically states that Congress shall have the authority …“To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers …”Other names for the Elastic Clause include the “Basket Clause,” the “Coefficient Clause,” and the “Sweeping Clause. ”Enumerated Powers Enumerated powers are the backbone of Congressional authority, as the Constitution specifically lists what Congress is permitted to do, and what authority is reserved for the individual states, and the people. Both Congress and the Supreme Court are notorious for their broad interpretations of just what are considered to be enumerated powers."

"text": "Necessary and Proper Clause In framing the U. S. Constitution, the leaders of the time gave certain specific powers to Congress, reserving all other powers to the individual states. This was done in order to ensure the new government would not become an oppressive entity, such as the government they had left behind in England. These men knew, however, that they could not foresee the needs of the country as it grew and developed. The final provision of Article 1, Section 8 of the U. S. Constitution gives Congress the power to enact laws that are “necessary and proper” in the execution of their enumerated powers. To explore this concept, consider the following necessary and proper clause definition. Definition of Necessary and Proper Clause Noun A clause in Section 8, article 1 of the Constitution that provides the federal government with the authority to make laws that are necessary and proper for carrying out enumerated powers. Origin U. S. Constitution, Article 1, Section 8What is the Necessary and Proper Clause The Necessary and Proper Clause, often referred to as the “ Elastic Clause ,” pertains to powers not expressly given to Congress in the United States Constitution, but which may be necessary and proper to accomplish their constitutional charges. Congressional powers are found in different places in the Constitution, but the Necessary and Proper Clause is contained in the last paragraph of Article 1, Section 8. This clause provides the federal government with flexibility when it comes to creating laws when the Constitution does not give Congress the specific authority to act, hence the moniker “Elastic Clause. ”The clause specifies that Congress has the authority:“To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof."

This listing should not be taken as a definitive statement or absolute truth. The judging of whether another teacher is genuine or not is a hazardous undertaking, and one can too easily come to the wrong conclusion, whether through personal bias or inclination or ignorance or simply insufficient information. And what one person judges to be enlightened another will not. It is often said that you have to be enlightened yourself to be able to recognise this Quality in (and hence truly judge) others. Personally I do not think this is so, in fact this oft-repeated statement is is just a bit too pat for me - a bit too neat! As long as there is a deep and central sincerity, a receptivity to one's Divine Center, then one may have a valid intimation and insight and be able to judge whether another is worth following or not. Conversely, one may be enlightened in some or even many ways and still not be a valid judge of others, or judge them on a totally different level. Especially wherever there are instances of abuse, manipulation, and coercian, one should be very wary about accepting any claims of authentic enlightenment on the part of a spiritual teacher. Hence the importance of research and carefully examining allegations, rather than dismissing them out of hand or, even worse, attacking and slandering those who make such allegations, often at great personal emotional cost and after much soul searching."

He is not a religious believer — he is what you might consider an atheist contemplative, or what reviewer Simon Critchley identifies as a “passive nihilist” — and Gray’s conservatism, such as it is, stands well outside the boundaries of the contemporary Right. In fact, it’s really more anti-liberal than conservative, with “liberal” meaning the entire spectrum of mainstream Western politics. He is profoundly skeptical of the idea of progress, and of the Enlightenment project. Gray is certainly bleak, and his views cannot be reconciled with Christianity, but I always, always learn from his beautiful prose and his provocative insights, even when I disagree with them (though I often do agree). Here’s an excerpt from Critchley’s review of Gray’s newest book, The Silence of Animals: On Progress And Other Modern Myths: Where does Gray’s loathing of liberalism leave him? He identifies the poison in liberal humanism, but what’s the antidote? It is what Gray calls “political realism”: we have to accept, as many ancient societies did and many non-Western societies still do, that the world is in a state of ceaseless conflict. Periods of war are followed by periods of peace, only to be followed by war again. What goes around comes around."

Ever since their inception, this 18th century secret society has garnered the imaginations of millions. However, to understand the Illuminati, we must understand two specific institutions - the Freemasons and the Catholic authorities. Freemasons The history and origin of the Freemasons is not a simple subject. In fact, it is virtually impossible to decipher the truth from the myriad histories fed into thousands of books on the subject. The reason for this is simply that it is a large organization, but it is split into many facets, each one holding virtual autonomy. Through time, differences of opinion and ritual have arisen. Although we have already taken a look at the serpent origins of Freemasonry, there are elements we need to address in order to better understand their link with the Catholic Church and the Illuminati. Many Masonic historians try desperately to claim that their lineage stretches right back to the Temple of Solomon and the builder Hiram Abiff - they are even told it as fact in their ceremonies."

For thousands of years in the East, if you were interested in attaining enlightenment, you would visit a fully enlightened Guru and sit with them for as much as time allowed you. The reason for this is not only for their teaching, but for the grace that they radiate. Just by being close to such an enlightened master, you feel their bliss. You feel their palpable enlightened presence, also called Shaktipat, Kundalini Shaktipat or Deeksha . And being in this enlightened presence transforms you, awakening you into deeper and deeper states of meditation and self realization. So sitting with fully enlightened teachers, ones that can radiate Shakti is most important. You can also receive this same Shakti through sound. After a profound spiritual awakening that changed my life, I found a way to turn Shakti into sound."

At that time, Louis XIV was king of France, and the vast majority of people in France lived in crushing poverty. When François-Marie came of age, the French aristocracy ruled with an iron fist. At the same time, however, the intellectual movement known as the Enlightenment was spreading ideas about the equality and basic rights of man and the importance of reason and scientific objectivity. François-Marie received a Jesuit education at the college of Louis-le-Grand. Even as a child, his witty intelligence struck and sometimes outraged his teachers, setting the stage for his controversial writing career. François-Marie briefly worked as a secretary for the French Ambassador to Holland, but abandoned the position to devote himself to writing. As a writer, François-Marie soon became legendary throughout France for his sharp epigrams. His quick wit brought him fame, and with fame came a good deal of trouble. As a result of expressing his bitter, satirical wit at the expense of the French Regent, he was exiled from Paris to Sully, but through flattery he soon managed to have his exile rescinded."

"text": "\"The Age of Revolution in Europe and America The eighteenth and nineteenth centuries were times of political turmoil and upheaval in the Atlantic world. Drawing on ideals of Enlightenment thinkers, revolutionaries attempted to institute new governments which would meet the needs of the people they governed. They argued for popular sovereignty, the idea that ultimate authority lies with the people, not the ruler. Revolutions broke out in France and America; however the French Revolution failed to establish a stable alternative to the monarchy. Revolutionary Ideas: The thinkers of the European Enlightenment had challenged the idea of Divine Right or rulers, and sought to make rulers responsible to the people they governed. They considered government to be a contract between the ruled and the ruler. John Locke had formulated the most influential theory of contractual government in his Second Treatise on Civil Government in which he argued that people granted political power to their rulers to preserve their rights to life, liberty and property. The power of the ruler came expressly from the consent of the governed, they who had created the government. If the ruler failed to protect these rights, the people could depose him. Voltaire had argued against religious persecution and the power of royal officials to censor works that did not meet the approval of religious or political authorities."

"text": "\"Enlightened Absolutism During the Enlightenment, the educated public came to regard political change as both possible and desirable. There was no unified position, however, as enlightenment thinkers often disagreed vociferously with each other on the best form of government. Until the American Revolution, most political thinkers believed that political change could best come from above—initiated by the ruler, for several reasons. Absolutism was a way of life in Europe. European rulers were not about to give up their power; therefore the best approach would be for a benevolent form of absolutism. If the monarch could be \"\"enlightened,\"\" he would then make good laws and promote human happiness. One of the primary influential thinkers of this era was Cesare Bonesana, Marquis of Beccaria. ( 1738-1794. He wrote a volume entitled On Crimes and Punishment in which he argued that the state’s task was to protect society but at the same time protect the dignity of all people, including the rights of those who were accused of crime. He argued that punishment should not be linked to the religious concept of sin, but rather to an assessment of the damage done to society."

In historiography the phrase the Dark Ages (or Dark Age) is most commonly known in relation to the European Early Middle Ages (from about 476 C. E. to about 1000 C. E. ). This concept of a \"\"Dark Age\"\" was first created by Italian humanists and was originally intended as a sweeping criticism of the character of Vulgar Latin (Late Latin) literature. Later historians expanded the term to include not only the lack of Latin literature, but a lack of contemporary written history and material cultural achievements in general. Popular culture has further expanded on the term as a vehicle to depict the Middle Ages as a time of backwardness, extending its derogatory use and expanding its scope. The rise of archaeology and other specialties in the twentieth century has shed much light on the period and offered a more nuanced understanding of its positive developments. Other terms of periodization have come to the fore: Late Antiquity, the Early Middle Ages, and the Great Migrations, depending on which aspects of culture are being emphasized. Most modern historians dismiss the notion that the era was a \"\"Dark Age\"\" by pointing out that this idea was based on ignorance of the period combined with popular stereotypes; many previous authors would simply assume that the era was a dismal time of violence and stagnation and use this assumption to prove itself.

"text": "\"From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge corenavigation search The Rules and Orders of the Coffeehouse English coffeehouses, in the 17th and 18th centuries, were public social places where people would meet for conversation and commerce while drinking coffee. For the price of a penny, customers purchased a cup of coffee and admission. Travellers introduced coffee as a beverage to England during the mid-17th century; previously it had been consumed mainly for its supposed medicinal properties. Coffeehouses also served tea and chocolate. [ 1]The historian Brian Cowan describes English coffeehouses as \"\"places where people gathered to drink coffee, learn the news of the day, and perhaps to meet with other local residents and discuss matters of mutual concern.\"\" [ 2] The absence of alcohol created an atmosphere in which it was possible to engage in more serious conversation than in an alehouse. Coffeehouses also played an important role in the development of financial markets and newspapers. Topics discussed included politics and political scandals, daily gossip, fashion, current events, and debates surrounding philosophy and the natural sciences. Historians often associate English coffeehouses, during the 17th and 18th centuries, with the intellectual and cultural history of the Age of Enlightenment: they were an alternate sphere, supplementary to the university. Political groups frequently used coffeehouses as meeting places."

The movement claimed the allegiance of a majority of thinkers during the 17th and 18th centuries, a period that Thomas Paine called the Age of Reason. At its heart it became a conflict between religion and the inquiring mind that wanted to know and understand through reason based on evidence and proof. Reflections Of The Age In Cultural Expression The eighteenth century, when Newtonian science exerted its greatestimpact, was exceptionally noteworthy for European cultural expression. Thiswas most evident in philosophy, which sought to find in human affairs naturallaws similar to those science had discovered in the physical universe. Thisapproach, with its optimistic utopianism, found some expression in literature,but it was much more obscured in the visual arts and barely noticeable inmusic. Because they were largely affected by tradition, individual feeling,and patronage, the arts were less responsive to scientific influence. Theywere, nevertheless, quite rich and varied, reflecting the increasing wealth,widening perspectives, and rising technical proficiency of European life.

Enlightenment is the human being’s emergence from his self-incurred minority. Minority is inability to make use of one’s own understanding without direction from another. This minority is self-incurred when its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in lack of resolution and courage to use it without direction from another. Sapere aude!

[ 6]French historians traditionally place the Enlightenment between 1715 (the year that Louis XIV died) and 1789 (the beginning of the French Revolution ). Some recent historians begin the period in the 1620s, with the start of the scientific revolution. Les philosophes (French for \"\"the philosophers\"\") of the period widely circulated their ideas through meetings at scientific academies, Masonic lodges, literary salons, coffee houses and in printed books and pamphlets."

If seven or more of the following describes your guru or spiritual teacher, then unfortunately he or she may not be be as enlightened or good for your soul as you would like to believe: States his or her own enlightenment: The wisest masters tend not to state their own enlightenment or perfection for they know that it is both unhelpful to themselves and to their students. The false teachers often make this claim because they have little else on offer to attract followers. Is unable to take criticism: False teachers strongly dislike either personal criticism or criticism of their teaching; they do not take kindly to ordinary unenlightened individuals questioning them. They or their organisations will even undertake multi-million dollar law suits to stop ex-members from spilling the beans. Acts omnipotently with no accountability: Some spiritual communities are run like concentration camps, with guru and his chosen ones acting like Gestapo officers. Unjust or outrageous behaviour by the guru is passed off as what is needed to help the followers grow (how kind). These are the dangerous gurus who have often severely damaged their students. A real master respects your will even if he or she understands that your particular decisions may not be in your interest, and he or she will act accountably to an ethical code of conduct."

"text": "Related Links: Works by Voltaire School of Thought: French Enlightenment Source: Toleration and Other Essays by Voltaire. Translated, with an Introduction, by Joseph Mc Cabe (New York: G. P. Putnam’s Sons, 1912). INTRODUCTIONIt seems useful, in presenting to English readers this selection of the works of Voltaire, to recall the position and personality of the writer and the circumstances in which the works were written. It is too lightly assumed, even by many who enjoy the freedom which he, more than any, won for Europe, and who may surpass him in scepticism, that Voltaire is a figure to be left in a discreetly remote niche of memory. “ Other times, other manners” is one of the phrases he contributed to modern literature. Let us genially acknowledge that he played a great part in dispelling the last mists of the Middle Ages, and politely attribute to the papal perversity and the lingering vulgarity of his age the more effective features of his work. Thus has Voltaire become a mere name to modern rationalists; a name of fading brilliance, a monumental name, but nothing more. This sentiment is at once the effect and the cause of a very general ignorance concerning Voltaire; and it is a reproach to us. We have time, amid increasing knowledge, to recover the most obscure personalities of the Middle Ages and of antiquity; we trace the most elementary contributors to modern culture; and we neglect one of the mightiest forces that made the development of modern culture possible. I do not speak of Voltaire the historian, who, a distinguished writer says, introduced history for the first time into the realm of letters; Voltaire the dramatist, whose name is inscribed for ever in the temple of the tragic muse; Voltaire the physicist, who drove the old Cartesianism out of France, and imposed on it the fertile principles of Newton; Voltaire the social reformer, who talked to eighteenth-century kings of the rights of man, and scourged every judicial criminal of his aristocratic age; Voltaire the cosmopolitan, who boldly set up England’s ensign of liberty in feudal France."

"text": "FOOD HOLIDAY: Different Types Of French Fries, A Glossary August 12, 2013 at 1:40 pm · Filed under Food Holidays, Vegetables-Salads-Herbs Today is National Julienne Fries Day. What are julienne fries? How do they fit in with all the other types of fries? Julienne is a French cutting technique, typically for vegetables, in which the food item is cut into long thin strips, similar to matchsticks. Another word for the same cut is allumette. The official julienne size is 1/8 inch × 1/8 inch × 2 inches. The next thicker cut, batonnet, is 1/4 inch x 1/4 inch x 2½ to 3 inches. The baton is the thickest stick cut: 1/2 inch x 1/2 inch x 2-1/2 inches. Fries, or French fries, refer to sliced, deep fried potatoes. They can be made with sweet potatoes instead of white potatoes, baked instead of fried, and served plain as well as with a myriad of condiments (barbecue sauce, blue cheese dressing, ketchup, gravy, malt vinegar, mayonnaise, mustard, ranch dressing, thousand island dressing."

In the United States and most of Canada, the term fries refers to all dishes of fried elongated pieces of potatoes, while in the United Kingdom, Australia, South Africa (rarely), Ireland and New Zealand, thinly cut fried potatoes are sometimes called shoestring fries or skinny fries to distinguish them from chips, which are cut thicker. French fries are served hot, either soft or crispy, and are generally eaten as part of lunch or dinner or by themselves as a snack, and they commonly appear on the menus of diners, fast food restaurants, pubs, and bars. They are usually salted and, depending on the country, may be served with tomato sauce, ketchup, vinegar, mayonnaise, or other local specialties. Fries can be topped more heavily, as in the dishes of poutine and chili cheese fries. Chips can be made from kumara or other sweet potatoes instead of potatoes. A baked variant, oven chips, uses less oil or no oil. [ 3] One very common fast food dish is fish and chips."

After being acquired by its Miami, Florida franchisees and renamed in 1954, BK began expanding its menu by adding the Whopper sandwich in 1957, and has since added non-beef items such as chicken, fish, and vegetarian offerings, including salads and meatless sandwiches. Other additions include a breakfast menu and beverages such as Icees, juices, and bottled waters. As the company expanded both inside and outside the United States, it introduced localized versions of its products that conform to regional tastes and cultural or religious beliefs. To generate additional sales, BK occasionally introduces limited-time offers of special versions of its products, or brings out completely new products intended for either long- or short-term sales. Not all of these products and services have been successful; in 1992, Burger King introduced limited table service featuring special dinner platters, but this concept failed to generate interest and was discontinued. The company introduced the first iteration of its breakfast menu, along with the company's \"\"Specialty Sandwich\"\" product line, in a 1978 menu expansion. The products were some of the first designed by a fast food restaurant chain that were intended to capture the adult market, members of which would be willing to spend more on a higher-quality product. The expanded Burger King menu was part of a plan by then-company president Donald N. Smith to reach the broadest possible demographic market to better compete with Mc Donald's, and to fend off then newcomer Wendy's, who had a growing market share. The plan was successful: the company's sales increased by 15 percent."

The dish emerged in the late 1950s in the Centre-du-Québec area and has long been associated with the cuisine of Quebec. For many years, it was negatively perceived and mocked and even used as a means of stigmatization against Quebec society. However, since the mid-2000s, poutine has been celebrated as a symbol of Québécois cultural pride, and its rise in prominence led to popularity outside the province, especially in central Canada and the northeast United States. Annual poutine celebrations occur in Montreal, Quebec City, and Drummondville, as well as Toronto, Ottawa, Chicago, and Manchester, New Hampshire. Today, it is often identified as quintessential Canadian food and has been called \"\" Canada's national dish \"\", though some have commented that this labelling represents misappropriation of Québécois culture. Many variations on the original recipe are popular, leading some to suggest that poutine has emerged as a new dish classification in its own right, just like sandwiches, dumplings, soups, and flatbreads.

"text": "\"Excerpt: Fast Food Nation Why the Fries Taste Good The Mistake of Standing Alone Food Product Design Millions and Millions of Fries Food Product Design Food Product Design The taste of Mc Donald's french fries has long been praised by customers, competitors, and even food critics. James Beard loved Mc Donald's fries. Their distinctive taste does not stem from the type of potatoes that Mc Donald's buys, the technology that processes them, or the restaurant equipment that fries them. Other chains buy their french fries from the same large processing companies, use Russet Burbanks, and have similar fryers in their restaurant kitchens. The taste of a fast food fry is largely determined by the cooking oil. For decades, Mc Donald's cooked its french fries in a mixture of about 7 percent cottonseed oil and 93 percent beef tallow. The mix gave the fries their unique flavor -- and more saturated beef fat per ounce than a Mc Donald's hamburger. Amid a barrage of criticism over the amount of cholesterol in their fries, Mc Donald's switched to pure vegetable oil in 1990. The switch presented the company with an enormous challenge: how to make fries that subtly taste like beef without cooking them in tallow. A look at the ingredients now used in the preparation of Mc Donald's french fries suggests how the problem was solved."

"text": "rench toast ain’t really from France, though it’s a bastardized American version of the French pain perdu, which has orange liqueur in the batter. Which other “ethnic” foods aren’t actually from their supposed cultures of origin? Chowhound investigates. Navajo Frybread Shutterstock What it is: Thick, round lard-fried dough, served with honey or powdered sugar, or wrapped around ground beef, taco seasoning, and shredded cheese (called an Indian Taco)Faux origin: Navajo, traditional Real origin: White U. S. influence, mid-19th century Legend: Frybread was created when 9,000 Navajos were imprisoned by the U. S. government at Fort Sumner, New Mexico in 1860–64. Unaccustomed to the wheat flour and lard given to them as rations, the Navajo women created frybread. Truth: Possible sources include the Latin American sopaipilla, a fried dough sweetened with honey; the Scottish bannock, a thin oatcake similar to a scone (via Canadian Native Americans); and the French galette, a sweet or savory buckwheat crepe (via Plains Indians influenced by French settlers). The earliest of these started appearing among Native Americans in the early 19th century. Chicken Parmesan Chowhound What it is: Breaded chicken that is fried, covered in red sauce, and topped with melted mozzarella cheese Faux origin: Italian Real origin: Italian-American, 1930s Truth: Chicken Parmesan is a hybrid of dishes and ingredients from different parts of Italy, brought together by the Neapolitan Italian communities in New York or New Jersey during the 1930s. The big question is why it’s called “Parmesan,” since the primary cheese used is mozzarella. The breaded meat and “Parmesan” name of the dish probably came from the authentic costelette Parmigiana, a crumb-coated and deep-fried veal cutlet that originated in Parma, Italy, and was served without sauce or cheese."

Fogoros, MDUpdated January 22, 2018Share Pin Email Print Courtesy of Hungry-Girl.com Let’s face it: If you poll 10 of your friends, at least half of them are likely to claim French fries as their favorite food. But since a medium order at a fast food restaurant has an average of 400 calories and 20 grams of fat, diet-friendly recipes are an absolute must. Here's everything you need to whip up your own guilt-free fries at home. Tools Baking Sheets and an Oven: That's right, these French fries are baked, not fried. And they're completely delicious. One to two large baking sheets (plus your oven, of course) is necessities. Also handy? An oven thermometer to ensure that your oven is preheated to the correct temp. You'd be surprised how many oven displays are inaccurate."

"text": "\"Should You Capitalize the French in French Fries? You don't always capitalize a country name when it appears in the name of a food. Here's why french fries is usually lowercase. By Mignon Fogarty, Grammar Girl July 31, 2014Although we often capitalize a country or city name when it’s part of a food name, that’s not always the case, and it’s typically not the case with french fries. Most sources say to keep it lowercase. The reasoning given by the AP Stylebook writers is that french describes the style of cut and doesn’t refer directly to the country. The Chicago Manual of Style also recommends keeping french lowercase because french isn’t being used to literally refer to the country. They give swiss cheese as another example — it’s lowercase because it’s not made in Switzerland. It’s named after a cheese called Emmental, which it resembles and which is made in Switzerland. It is capitalized because the name does relate directly to the Emmental region where the cheese originated."

"text": "\"Where do French fries come from? ( And why do you suppose it took 4,000 years to figure out how good they are? ) By Suman Bandrapalli May 2, 2000By 200 BC, potatoes had been farmed in Peru for at least 2,000 years. But the starchy tuber (a member of the Solanum family, which includes tomatoes and deadly nightshade) didn't come to the attention of the West for another 1,700 years. In 1524, Spanish invaders landed in South America and found all kinds of new things to eat, including tomatoes, peanuts, cacao beans, hot peppers, and more. A journal entry by an anonymous member of a Spanish expedition in 1536 described potatoes being grown in the Andean village of Sorocota. You might not recognize those \"\"original\"\" potatoes today. They were dark and small - almost as small as unshelled peanuts. They looked like dried mushrooms. Still, they were abundant and nutritious."

"text": "\"The Best New Orleans Food: 10 Iconic Dishes18 Photosby Calder Quinn February 11, 2015New Orleans is one of the culinary capitals of the U. S., with a cuisine entirely its own reflecting the city's Cajun, Creole, and French roots. Here are the dishes you should try on your next trip (or three) to the Big Easy—and, more importantly, where to eat them. Courtesy Alamy What to eat: Chargrilled Oysters Raw oysters served on the half shell are popular throughout the South, but chargrilled oysters are a distinctly New Orleans specialty. This method takes the salty-like-the-sea flavor of these bivalves to another place entirely; the grill adds a char, while a mixture of breadcrumb, herbs, cheese, and melted butter (added while the oysters are on the flame) provides an unctuous quality. Plus, unlike the oysters served elsewhere in the States, this version is typically not prohibitively pricey. Courtesy Alamy Where to eat them: Acme Oyster House and Drago's Seafood Restaurant With its iconic neon signs and long history, the original location of the Acme Oyster House has been a prime French Quarter dining destination since its doors opened at the beginning of the 20th century. Props are also due to Drago’s Seafood Restaurant, which bills itself as the “Home of the Original Charbroiled Oyster. ”Courtesy Getty What to eat: Po' Boys Po’ Boys were invented to feed striking streetcar workers in 1929 (provided to the unpaid, picketing laborers free of charge—hence the name). Popular fillings for these sandwiches, served on crusty French bread, include roast beef and fried seafood (typically shrimp); make sure to order yours ‘dressed’ with lettuce, tomato, pickles, and mayonnaise (onions are optional). Courtesy Alamy Where to eat them: Johnny's Po' Boys Operating out of the same French Quarter storefront since 1950, this family-owned lunch counter has nearly 50 oversized Po’ Boys on the menu (as well as a selection of New Orleans classics like gumbo, jambalaya, and red beans and rice)."

"text": "\"Canadian Foods In a multi-ethnic, restaurant-heavy country like Canada, it can sometimes be a bit of a challenge to define what exactly counts as “Canadian food.” In general, most Canadians eat a largely “western” diet broadly similar to the diet of Americans and Europeans, with a heavy focus on processed grain and dairy products, farm-grown beef and chicken, certain cooked or fresh fruits and vegetables, and questionable amounts of salt and sugar. Foodio/Shutterstock Canadian Breakfasts A Canadian homestyle breakfast is one featuring eggs, meat, and toast, and often pancakes as well. A continental breakfast, by contrast, is a much lighter meal usually consisting of toast, pastries, juice, oatmeal, and other things that don't require much cooking. A homestyle breakfast is something you'd get at a restaurant, while a continental breakfast is usually associated with hotels. The Canadian Diet Canadians usually eat three standard meals a day — breakfast, lunch, and dinner — each of which is quite distinct. Breakfast is eaten first thing in the morning to provide fuel for the day ahead. Unfortunately a lot of Canadians tend to be too rushed in the morning to give the meal much effort, and as a result it tends to be the most widely skipped or half-hearted meal. Traditional breakfast foods in Canada are cooked eggs, fried pork sausages or bacon, fried or deep-fried potatoes, toasted bread, pancakes (or egg-battered French Toast) and syrup, cereals, or hot oatmeal. For those in a rush, a breakfast may only consist of one of the above; for those who take it seriously, it’s not uncommon for a “hearty” Canadian breakfast to contain almost everything mentioned."

Now you are left surrounded by gifts. This is a great scenario, except you are also left with the task of thanking each guest for their gift. If you follow the etiquette guidelines and wording suggestions below, writing thank you cards will not have to become a time-consuming or mind-numbing task. Who Should Rece ive a Graduation Thank You Card Everyone who either attends your graduation ceremony or party, or just sends you a gift, needs to receive a thank you card. Your family and friends understand how important graduating is, and to show you their support, they attend your celebration and usually give you a gift. It is important to acknowledge their support with more than a verbal “thank you.” Even if a few guests simply show their support by attending your party, their time and efforts still should be recognized with a thank you card. Purpose of a Graduation Thank You Card Graduation is a busy season for both graduates and their guests, but showing gratitude through a thank you card is essential. Your guests have taken time to celebrate your graduation, whether they sent you a gift or money, or simply attended your ceremony or party."

"text": "\"Graduation Announcement Etiquette and Wording By Michele Meleen M. S. Ed Although the terms are sometimes used interchangeably, graduation announcements and graduation invitations are different. A graduation announcement is sent to all relatives and friends of the family to announce the achievement. What to Include Whether you're ordering online or making a DIY version, there are some basic pieces of information that make up graduation announcements. Student's and Parents' Names: Formal announcements should include the student's full name along with parents' names. Informal versions can include nicknames rather than a full name. Student's Picture: Most often announcements include either a senior portrait of the graduate or a photo of them in cap and gown at the ceremony. School name: The name of the school the student is graduating from should appear somewhere. Year/date/time: Be sure to include the year and graduation date. It's a good idea to include a phrase like Class of (year). Announcement Ideas Many graduates today are sending more informal announcements that showcase individual personality: A collage of senior pictures A side-by-side of the student on the first day of school and graduation day Personalized postcards Image of a monogrammed graduation cap with the graduate's initials Bookmark with photo booth style pictures of the graduate and a tassel with the year Image of the graduate walking away from the camera with cap and gown on Sending email announcements is still frowned upon by many, so unless the student and recipients are tech savvy and will appreciate a digital graduation announcement, it is best to stick with a mailed card."

"text": "FAQs: Diploma, Degree, Transcript, Degree Conferral, and Commencement Ceremony Degrees, Diplomas, and Transcripts A degree is a credential. There are three documents that provide evidence of that credential: an official transcript, a diploma, and a formal letter of certification from the Graduate School. These documents are available to students who have completed all of their degree requirements and have had their degrees conferred. Upon completion of degree requirements and completion of the Application to Receive a Degree, the Graduate School works with the student's program to ensure that all degree requirements have been met. If this is the case, the Graduate School posts the degree to the official transcript. Degree postings usually do not appear on transcripts until very near the date of degree conferral. As soon as the degree is posted, the transcript can be used as credential evidence for prospective employers, schools, etc. Approximately a month after the degree conferral date, the Office of Registration and Records orders the diplomas for all students who earned a degree. It can take as long as three months after the time the diplomas are ordered for the students to receive their diplomas, as they must be checked for errors. Note: Neither Diplomas nor formal transcripts are sent to students until all financial obligations to the University are met."

"text": "Full Answer Honey badgers, or ratels, eat so many snakes and scorpions that they develop a natural immunity to the venom of these animals. They have low sensitivity to venom as a species and have similar characteristics to their mongoose relatives. Some scientific data suggests that a lifetime of small bites by venomous animals, such as bees, scorpions and snakes, helps the honey badger to build up an immunity to venom. In addition to developing immunity, honey badgers have physical qualities that help them avoid bites and stings from venomous animals. They have tough skin, making it more difficult for venom to be injected into their bodies. Their skin is also very loose, which allows them to turn and bite any animals attempting to attack and envenomate them. They are fast, smart and fierce. These characteristics mean the honey badger is both less likely to be bitten and less reactive to the venom of snakes, scorpions and bees. In the wild, observers have seen snakes bite honey badgers, have seen the badgers swelling and showing signs of distress and then sleeping. After the honey badgers wake up, they walk away, showing no evidence of taking a bite that would have killed almost any other animal."

The honey badger resembles its distant relative the skunk in coloration and in the possession of an anal scent gland. The honey badger has short legs and stout claws and is a strong burrower and a good climber. Reproduction Honey badgers travel singly or in pairs. In the honey badgers of West Asia matings occur in autumn and births after about six months in spring; in Africa matings have been reported in various months. Litter size ranges from 1 to 4, but the average is two. They can reportedly live to be from 20 to 24 years of age. Habits It is nocturnal, feeds on rodents, reptiles, and insects, and has a thick loose coat that protects it against snake bites and insect stings. The honey badger collaborates with the honeyguide, or indicator bird, in obtaining honey, a favorite food. The bird searches for a bee colony, and when one is found, the honey badger rips it open."

"text": "Wisconsin History“Thirty thousand voices rose in one deafening cheer, and universal joy seemed to pervade the face of every man present.” – from the new book, “General Joseph Bailey – Hero of the Red River”. The cheering was heard at Alexandria, Louisiana in the spring of 1864, when the first Union gunboat trapped above the rapids of the Red River passed down the chute of the newly-constructed dam. The dam saved the most powerful battle fleet ever assembled in the Mississippi Valley, spared the failed Union advance up the Red from suffering another disastrous defeat, and brought national fame and honor to its creator. This is the story of the man, the places and the events that made Joseph Bailey the hero of the Red River. Click here for information about this book. Wisconsin was first inhabited by varied Indian tribes in the 17th century. They included the Algonquian-speaking Menominee, Kickapoo, Miami, the Siouan-speaking Winnebago, Dakota (or Sioux) and Iowa. In the mid-1600’s other groups entered Wisconsin, including the Fox, Sac, Potawatomi and Ojibewa (Chippewa). Jean Nicolet, a native of France, was the first explorer to reach the area while searching for the Northwest Passage to China in 1634."

Most of the body is covered in straight, coarse black or dark brown hairs, but a wide strip of wiry grey and white hairs, known as the mantle, runs from the crown of the head to the base of the tail in adults. On some individuals, a pure white band separates the mantle, which becomes darker with age, from the black underparts. The tail is bushy and covered in the same straight, coarse hairs of the body, and ends in a grey or white tip. The muscular, stocky neck and shoulders, together with the broad forefeet and large powerful claws, make light work of digging for small prey. The hind feet are much slighter with smaller claws (2). Named for its apparent taste for honey, the honey badger is often seen raiding African honey bee nests, although it is in fact also after the juicy developing grubs of the bees and not just the honey. This species is also known as the ‘ratel’, an Afrikaans word for ‘rattle’, as it is known to make a rattle-like cry (2).

Nor is it exclusively the economy, stupid — that cannonball of wisdom forever shackled to James Carville ’s name. Indeed, Trump’s fans may have revealed themselves to be ABDs (All But Democrats), since Trump himself is an ABD. But for his recent conversions — pro-life with exceptions, walls make good immigration policy and repeal-and-replace Obamacare “ with something terrific! ” — he would be giving Hillary Clinton a primary run for her money (and possibly some of his). As recently as Tuesday, he wasn’t jumping on the anti-Planned Parenthood bandwagon, though he did say that no funding should go to abortion, which is pretty safe because such federal abortion funding is already disallowed under current law.

"text": "Not Exactly Rocket Science A Blog by Ed Yong The Myth of the Komodo Dragon’s Dirty Mouth Posted Thu, 06/27/2013In 1969, an American biologist named Walter Auffenberg moved to the Indonesia island of Komodo to study its most famous resident—the Komodo dragon. This huge lizard—the largest in the world—grows to lengths of 3 metres, and can take down large prey like deer and water buffalo. Auffenberg watched the dragons for a year and eventually published a book on their behaviour in 1981. It won him an award. It also enshrined a myth that took almost three decades to refute, and is still prevalent today. Auffenberg noticed that when large animals like water buffalo were injured by the dragons, they would soon develop fatal infections. Based on this observation, and no actual evidence, he suggested that the dragons use bacteria as a form of venom. When they bite prey, they flood the wounds with the microbes in their mouths, which debilitate and kill the victim. This explanation is found in textbooks, wildlife documentaries, zoo placards, and more. It’s also wrong. “"

I’m sure, by now, you’re wondering where this royal jelly treatment comes from. It’s a nutritious substance produced by young nurse bees and contains significant amounts of proteins that are important for cell growth and reproduction. Just like honey, it originates from beehives — however, bees produce these substances for very different reasons. While honey provides energy for the worker bees, royal jelly acts as the main source of food for the colony’s queen. A royal treatment indeed and likely how the name was derived."

They are also known as indicator birds, or honey birds, although the latter term is also used more narrowly to refer to species of the genus Prodotiscus. They have an Old World tropical distribution, with the greatest number of species in Africa and two in Asia. These birds are best known for their interaction with humans. Honeyguides are noted and named for one or two species that will deliberately lead humans (but, contrary to popular claims, not honey badgers) directly to bee colonies, so that they can feast on the grubs and beeswax that are left behind.

They are among the few birds that feed regularly on wax — beeswax in most species, and presumably the waxy secretions of scale insects in the genus Prodotiscus and to a lesser extent in Melignomon and the smaller species of Indicator. They also feed on waxworms which are the larvae of the waxmoth Galleria mellonella, on bee colonies, and on flying and crawling insects, spiders, and occasional fruits.

After the honey badger was long gone, they maybe found a little piece of honeycomb and tasted honey for the first time. Interestingly Bear Gryllis recently did a T. V. series where he put men onto a deserted island for a month to see how they got on. The men's diet was poor for a long time as they tried to learn how to forage. Seafood was their main diet with very little carbohydrate. They then found a bee's nest and got honey. They went mad over it.

It lives in Africa, the Middle East and the Indian subcontinent. Despite its name, the honey badger does not look much like other types of badgers. It looks more like a weasel.

"text": "\"Media Enhydra lutris Trusted Source: Biopix See all media See all maps Comprehensive Description Read full entry Learn more about this article Taxonomy and Systematics Mustelidae (weasels and relatives) is the largest family in the order Carnivora. Mustelids are found on every continent except Antarctica and Australia (although Ermine [ Mustela erminea] and Least weasels [ Mustela nivalis] were introduced by humans to New Zealand). Larivère and Jennings (2009) recognized 57 mustelid species in 22 genera, but noted that future research could result in this number changing. There has been considerable uncertainty about the position of the mustelids in the carnivoran tree, as well as about phylogenetic relationships within the Mustelidae. With regard to the first question, although the skunks and stink badgers (family Mephitidae) were long considered a subfamily within the Mustelidae, several independent molecular phylogenetic studies have now established that Mephitidae represents a distinct lineage that is basal to a clade that includes the Ailuridae (Red Panda) basally and the Procyonidae (raccoons and relatives) and Mustelidae as sister taxa (Eizirik et al. 2010; Nyakatura and Bininda-Emonds 2012; Sato et al. 2012). Relationships within the Mustelidae are less well resolved, although there have been quite a few molecular genetic studies attempting to infer these relationships. Some results appear to be quite consistent among these studies, such as the position of the American Badger lineage, subfamily Taxidiinae (which includes just one extant species, Taxidea taxus ), as the most basal mustelid lineage, and the relationship of the subfamilies Lutrinae (otters) and Mustelinae (weasels) as sister taxa (for review, see Yu et al. 2011 and references therein)."

It is a giant stratovolcano that began forming about a million years ago and is composed of many layers of hardened volcanic ash, lava, pumice and tephra — fragmental material that is the fallout from a volcanic eruption. One of the Seven Summits (the highest peaks on the seven continents), Kilimanjaro is in Tanzania in east Africa. Credit: Graeme Shannon shutterstock A number of theories exist about the meaning and origin of the name. One theory is that the name is a mix of the Swahili word Kilima, meaning \"\"mountain,\"\" and the Ki Chagga word Njaro, loosely translated as \"\"whiteness.\"\" Another is that Kilimanjaro is the European pronunciation of a Ki Chagga phrase meaning \"\"we failed to climb it. \"\" One of the Seven Summits (the highest peaks on the seven continents), Kilimanjaro is in Tanzania in east Africa. Kilimanjaro lies within the 292-square-mile (756 square kilometers) Kilimanjaro National Park. Kilimanjaro rises from its base approximately 16,732 feet (5,100 meters) from the plains near the Tanzanian municipality of Moshi, making it the tallest free-standing mountain in the world.

"text": "\"Pets Horses Another word for a 'Horse'? Hi, I am writing a piece of English about horses (do not need to get into the details) but basically I need to know some other words to use instead of horse to vary my language usage. So far I can only think of steed. I can use words such as farmyard animal but I'm stuck on coming up with these words too. Follow 19 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Equine is an adjective that makes reference to a horse. The noun forms for horse are equus or equid, and the plural for either of these nouns is equidae. Equidae are members of the horse family, including horses, ponies, zebras, mules and donkeys and related extinct mammals. Cheval is French for horse, caballo is Spanish for horse, and.caballus is a Latin noun for horse, and the anncient Greek noun for horse was ippos (with h added later to form hippos for river horse) You can refer to your horse as your \"\"mount\"\" or \"\"steed\"\", or differentiate by gender and age. A mare is an adult female horse, and a filly is an immature female. A stallion is an adult male horse, and a colt is an immature male, although in the past it was fairly common to refer to immature horses of both sexes as colts."

Who rode Joe D, Buck, or Razor? These and many other horses were kind of in the background. They were almost just a prop. Or were they? I’d like to think not. The horses were hard working actors just like their riders. They were well cared for and loved by their cowboy counter part.

The English Thoroughbred, Precipitation was the winner of seven races out of 10 starts. According to ‘Thoroughbred-Breeding of the World’ edited by Rainer L. Ahnert: “Hurry On sired the three Derby winners Captain Cuttle, Coronach, Call Boy and the excellent stayer Precipitation, to name his most outstanding male progeny. The last-named was not entered for the early classics, and he was not fit to run in the St Leger, whose winner Boswell he beat most readily three weeks after the great Doncaster event. Precipitation did not come to hand when two years old, and in his third year he required the patience of his very fine trainer. ”“He then won many long-distance races against the best in the land, crowning his distinguished career with a triumph in the Gold Cup at Ascot. It fell to Precipitation to maintain and continue the great Matchem’s influence on the breed, and this big and well-balanced son of the unbeaten Hurry On did not disappoint his many admirers. His son Chamossaire was leading sire in 1964, the year Santa Claus won the Derby. ”“His grand-son Larkspur, winner of the Derby, went to Japan. Precipitation’s dam Double Life was a very good racehorse, she won the Cambridgeshire and £5,647 and became one of the great brood-mares of our post-war era."

"text": "Sports | HORSE RACINGHORSE RACING; Where No Gelding Has Gone Before By JOE DRAPE JUNE 1, 2003The saga of Funny Cide is a fairy tale, beginning with his place in history as the first New York-bred horse to capture the Kentucky Derby and down to the charm of his small-time owners -- a cross of upstate high school buddies and devotees of horse racing's Brigadoon, Saratoga Springs. They have boarded a yellow school bus in Louisville and again in Baltimore to watch their modest purchase run off with the first two legs of the Triple Crown. Now Funny Cide is a victory from becoming the 12th horse to sweep the series and the first since Affirmed did so in 1978. His owners are just the mile-and-a-half distance of the Belmont Stakes, the Test of the Champion, from pocketing a $5 million bonus. But one textbook fact slows the narrative and erodes some of the romance of this tale: Funny Cide is a gelding, or a castrated horse. It is not uncommon to find geldings in races at tracks across the nation: of the 72,825 individual thoroughbred starters in North America in 2002, 18,796 -- or 25.8 percent -- were geldings, according to Jockey Club officials, who say that estimate is on the low side because of incomplete reporting. They win, too, taking down more than $282 million in purse money last year, or 23.1 percent of the purses available in North America in 2002. It is also not unusual to find geldings in the pantheon of the sport's great and most beloved horses. Kelso was named Horse of the Year five years in a row from 1960 to 1964, Forego claimed that title three times in the 1970's and John Henry twice in the 1980's. But a gelding has never challenged for a Triple Crown."

"text": "\"INTRODUCTIONOf the abundant documentation conserved in this Archives about the original province of Pánuco and the colonization of Nuevo Santander whose territory, in its majority at present, forms the rich state of Tamaulipas, we have chosen for publication in this first volume the detailed account of the general view made in the province by Dragoon Captain D. José Tienda de Cuervo, who, in the company of the engineer D. Agustín López de la Cámara Alta, was named by the Marquis de las Amarillas in 1757 to inspect the said area. The second volume contains the report of that visit tendered to the viceroy by the commissioner himself, as well as an appendix with documents of interest within which the noted historical account of Fray Vicente Santa María stands out for its outstanding importance. Certainly no province, of those included in Nueva España, resisted the colonization so steadfastly as that of Nuevo Santander. As an extensive coast exposed to the pillaging of the pirates which marauded in the gulf and traversed by the eastern Sierra Madre, safe shelter of unruly tribes opposed to all intent of civilization, this province constituted, for a long time, a serious problem in the administration of the colony. Besides the permanent vigilance of its coast, obligated by the memory of the black slave captain John Hawkings who in 1568 -it is said- presented himself in the waters of el Pánuco with the intent of sacking the port of Tampico, and the unfortunate expedition of the Frenchman de la Salle whose privateers were seized and killed by their own natives, the province had to defend itself from the frequent raids of the barbarians who, at the slightest negligence, would descend the mountain assaulting the missions and devastating the few towns formed by the Spaniards, perhaps because of the bloody memory which they had of the implacable killings done by Gonzalo de Sandoval and the sinister Nuño de Guzm�n in the first years of the viceroyalty. Such precarious conditions, interrupted only by episodes of relative calm, prevailed until the middle of the XVIII century when the Spanish government decided to undertake the conquest of the entire region persuaded, as it was, of the potential wealth which an area, fertile in the most varied products, afforded. As a matter of fact, one of the first acts of the viceroy and the first count of Revillagigedo, at the beginning of his term in 1746, was that of commissioning, with that end, of D. José de Escandón, prominent resident of Querétaro, who two years later would initiate his triple task of conqueror, founder, and colonizer, epiloguing it with the definitive subjection of the province to the existing system. As a prize for his zeal and ability, well demonstrated in the difficult mission, the king distinguished him with the rocky title of Count of Sierra Gorda, symbolic testimony of the last stronghold where the brave natives defended their liberty. It is already known from the Marquis del Valle to the Count of Venadito, everywhere in which the history of the colony enlightens the name of an adventurer with a naturalistic heraldry, of geographic or zoologic resonances; that it is because the blood of the oppressed, or that of him who aligns himself with its cause, fills the fields of heraldry. In the case of the conquest of the Sierra Gorda, one can say that its pacification was realized with a minimum of cruelty, thanks to the political capacity as well as the humanitarianism which the named one had for this venture."

"text": "\"Mustang Wild / Feral Horse (Equus caballus)Wild mustang horses that abound today in North America's western plains and deserts, and wild horses on a few east coast barrier islands and in Australia are actually feral horses. Wild horses are sometimes mangy-looking critters, with unkempt manes and tails, burs, scars, and encrusted dust and dirt. Feral horses of the Southwest are not recognized by most horse-registry organizations that certify desirable traits and characteristics of a particular breed, and are considered to be little more than 'buzzard bait' by many. But wild horses are not all that different from other horses; they are just not trained or domestic. Feral horses are descendants of domestic stock who either escaped, were abandoned, or released into the wild. But the wild horse is an animal enmeshed in controversy. Decisions about their management and protection are cloaked in myth and emotion that have to do with Native Americans, pioneers, and the 'Old West\"\"; therefore their disposition has been contentious for nearly half a century. The wild mustangs that are found in the United States are not the first herds to roam the land. Ancient horses were endemic to North America. Their fossil record shows the evolution and indicates that they spread to Eurasia via the Bering land bridge."

"text": "\"SCYTHIANSDragon Lords, Dragon Fossils Scythian Death mask The meaning of the name of the ancestor of the Scythians was also a common characterization of his nation, his descendants. Truth and trustworthiness above advantage, which strongly reminds of thede Vere family motto. \"\" the prince of truth\"\" \"\"the defender of the side of the sun god\"\" This tradition goes back to the ancient tradition of northern sunworship, where the sungod was the god of truth and protector of mankind and was represented by the light of the sun, which enlightens us.the Scythian name of God was TAR. Fierce Scythians were known as Dragons for their heavy, segmented armour; they were the forefathers of medieval knights. The Silk Road, itself, can be envisioned as a vast dragon. Why not make your tribe's totem the biggest, baddest creature who's bones are in your hillsides? Naturally, myths of dragons, dragon bones and dragon lords arose in tandem. The crested dragon is the grand-daddy of T-Rex THE SAKAIt seems that both nomadic and sedentary Iranians referred to themselves as Airyas; gradually, however, this word became a self-imposed designation for the settled Iranians only, who began to refer to their nomadic cousins in the East, i.e., Zoroaster's people, as the Saka, and some of those further west as SKUDRA [3] [3]; the Saka probably did not call themselves exclusively by this name, some may have retained the use of the term Airya. Many Saka tribes left the northern steppes intermittently to settle permanently in Central Asia, modern Afghanistan, and Persia; these tribes are the direct forebears of the imperial Western Iranians, the Medes, Persians and lastly, the Parthians; Once converted to Zoroastrianism, however, such became their religious significance, that by the middle of the 1st millennium B. C., the centre of the faith was neither in the homeland of its founder, nor in any of the adjoining Eastern Iranian regions; it was firmly established on the western side of the great salt desert, amongst the people now called Western Iranians; from then onwards, Eastern Iran fades into the background; we now deal almost exclusively with Western Iran, and until very recently, were not even aware of the fact that Eastern Iran had played such a vital part in the genesis of the Iranian empires, and their great national faith; most scientific facts, such as, the recorded history and Near Eastern archaeological data, especially a large volume of deciphered inscriptions, relate to the four great Western Iranian empires of the Medes, Persians, Parthians & Sasanians; there is only a small volume of classical sources, and more recent archaeological data, which also deal with the nomadic Iranians of the northeast, i.e., those Saka warriors who remained in the steppes, and were never completely subdued by the settled Iranians of the imperial period; these warriors remained, nonetheless, a very formidable enemy of their settled cousins; not only did they conquer and rule the Median Empire for 28 years in the 7th century B. C., but they also defeated and killed Cyrus the Great, founder of the Achaemenian Empire, in the following century; a generation later, they were still engaging Darius the Great in many hard-fought battles; two hundred and fifty years later, however, they became the saviours of the Iranian culture and religion, and political integrity; they gradually pushed the Macedonians out of the Iranian homeland, and formed the Parthian Empire, which lasted for another 500 years. The nomadic Iranians of the north western steppes, however, especially those settled in Europe, are extensively covered by the classical writers; they are also attested in a very large number of archaeological excavations in Eastern Europe; these Iranian peoples are known in the West as Cimmerians, Scythians, Sarmatians, Alans, and finally Ossets; it must be emphasised that all these names refer to the successive migratory waves of the same people, who probably called themselves by a name derived from the word Airya, as the Alans did, and the Ossets still do."

Breed standards Clydesdale Breeders of the USAClydesdale Horse Society Equus ferus caballus The Clydesdale is a breed of draught horse named for and derived from the farm horses of Clydesdale, a county in Scotland. Although originally one of the smaller breeds of draught horses, it is now a tall breed. Often bay in color, they show significant white markings due to the presence of sabino genetics. The breed was originally used for agriculture and haulage, and is still used for draught purposes today. The Budweiser Clydesdales are some of the most famous Clydesdales, and other members of the breed are used as drum horses by the British Household Cavalry. They have also been used to create and improve other breeds. The breed was developed from Flemish stallions imported to Scotland and crossed with local mares. The first recorded use of the name \"\"Clydesdale\"\" for the breed was in 1826, and by 1830 a system of hiring stallions had begun that resulted in the spread of Clydesdale horses throughout Scotland and into northern England. The first breed registry was formed in 1877."

"text": "\"Texas | Columns | \"\"Letters from Central Texas\"\"Steel Dustby Clay Coppedge Cowboys and horse racing enthusiasts have often rhapsodized about horses they call Steel Dusters, or sometimes Steeldusters. They praise the horse’s speed, durability, handling and virility and many have been and still are reluctant to ride or handle any other kind of horse. Old timers believed the Steelduster is a separate breed but the horses can trace back to single horse named Steel Dust. The original Steel Dust was foaled by a Kentucky thoroughbred mare and brought to Texas in 1843 by Middleton Perry and Jones Green. The horse was described as being muscular with small ears and a big jaw that made him just look more determined than other horses. What set Steel Dust apart was not only his blazing speed around a quarter-mile track but he had more common sense – true horse sense – and durability than other horses. But it was his speed that made everybody take notice. Steel Dust raced against horses owned by Texans and Indians and he beat all of them. ( We can be pretty sure that some of the Comanches’ best horses had some Steel Dust blood in them, too.) How fast was he?"

"text": "\"Abstract Hypertension often coexists with hyperlipidemia, insulin resistance, and glucose intolerance, a comorbidity known as metabolic syndrome X. Different antihypertensives have mixed effects on these associated abnormalities. We compared three antihypertensives in the spontaneously hypertensive obese rat model of syndrome X. Moxonidine (4 mg/kg), an imidazoline and α 2 -adrenergic agonist, α-methyldopa (200 mg/kg), an α 2 -adrenergic agonist, or the vasodilator hydralazine (10 mg/kg) was given orally for 15 d. All three agents lowered blood pressure equally. Moxonidine significantly reduced fasting plasma insulin, glucagon, cholesterol, triglycerides, and free fatty acids (FFA) compared with untreated controls. In contrast, syndrome X markers were not affected by α-methyldopa treatment, and hydralazine reduced only glucagon and FFA. Relative to untreated controls, moxonidine improved glucose tolerance as shown by reduced glucose area under the curve (AUC) (13.6 ± 2.4 versus 42.5 ± 9.9 g · min/dl). Insulin AUC was increased (7.4 ± 0.9 versus 3.9 ± 1.8 μg - min/ml) as was the plasma C-peptide response to the glucose load. In contrast, α-methyldopa and hydralazine worsened glucose tolerance (68 ± 26 and 110 ± 21 g · min/ml, respectively) and significantly reduced insulin AUC (2.5 ± 0.8 and -2.3 ± 1.0 μg - min/ml, respectively) compared with controls. Moxonidine reduced but α-methyldopa and hydralazine elevated glucagon levels after the glucose load. Contrary to the \"\"hemodynamic hypothesis\"\" for the metabolic actions of antihypertensives, which predicts roughly equal benefits, only moxonidine had a positive impact on comorbidities. This unique action suggests a role for direct stimulation of imidazoline receptors."

"text": "What Is Imitation Crab? Is Imitation Crab Meat Healthy For You? Popular Food Seafood has always been popular with most people. Amongst a handful of people who either don’t like fish or avoid them due to allergies, most of us would gorge on food from the sea, if given a chance. The most common seafood that are cooked not just at home but also served at some of the best restaurants as delicacies are oysters, mussels, scallops, prawns, shrimps, lobsters, squid (often known as calamari) and crabs. They are not only delicious, but are also packed with nutrients especially protein and Omega-3 fatty acids. They are excellent substitutes for lean meat, and are preferred even by those who are keen on building muscles. In spite of the fact that there are so many seafood lovers out there, fish is quite expensive and most people cannot afford it on a daily basis. To combat this issue, several companies come up artificial sea food, that doesn’t cost you a bomb if you were to pick them off the shelves of supermarkets. One such fake seafood is the Imitation Crab."

Crab meat is particularly lean, and over 80 percent of the calories are from protein. Fewer than 20 percent of the overall calories come from fat and even carbohydrates, in some cases, if you consume a type of crab with an edible soft shell. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Calories by Type Queen crab tends to be higher in calories than any other type of crab meat. You’ll get nearly 100 calories from 3 ounces of steamed queen crab. If you prefer the decadent flavor of Alaska king crab, you’ll save a few calories. A 3-ounce of cooked Alaska king crab yields closer to 80 calories. Steamed Dungeness crab is on the higher end, offering almost 95 calories from 3 ounces. If you’re really counting calories and trying to limit your intake, opt for blue crab. A 3-ounce serving of either steamed or canned blue crab gives you around 70 calories, 30 percent less than the same amount of queen crab."

"text": "\"Imitation Crab Meat Follow City-Data.com founder on our Forum or @Lech Mazur Background Imitation crab meat is a seafood product made by blending processed fish, known as surimi, with various texturizing ingredients, flavorants, and colorants. First invented in the mid 1970s, imitation crab meat has become a popular food in the United States, with annual sales of over $250 million. Surimi is the primary ingredient used to create imitation crab meat. It is mostly composed of fish myofibrillar proteins. These proteins are responsible for the quintessential characteristic of surimi that makes imitation crab meat manufacture possible, namely the ability to form a sturdy gel. The gel can be shaped and cut into thin strips which, when rolled together, mimic the texture of real crab meat. Although imitation crab meat was introduced in the United States in the early 1980s, the Japanese have been using surimi-based products for over 800 years. Traditionally called kamaboko, the first recorded surimi manufacturing procedure was found in a Japanese cookbook written in 1528. Commercial production of kamaboko products began on a small scale in the nineteenth century. However, modern manufacturing did not start until the twentieth century, when efficient methods of bulk fishing were developed."

Popular New England crab cakes are traditionally made by deep-frying the crab meat patties, but broiling instead helps reduce the fat content for a healthier entree.

Starches could include breadcrumbs, dried bread pieces, crushed up crackers or cooked mashed potatoes. Step 2Gradually add liquid to the mixture until it is moist enough to form into cakes. While mayonnaise and butter are common moistening elements, they are both heavy on the fat. Substitute egg whites, low-fat milk or low-fat mayo instead. Step 3Mix in the yolk of one egg for heavier cakes, or the white of one egg beaten until it forms soft peaks for a lighter, fluffier cake.

Crab and lobster are great all by themselves or mixed with ingredients to make a meal, dip, or even a salad. But if you have shellfish allergies, you know why imitation crab and lobster meat has become so popular. Now, don't get me wrong, it's still real seafood, just not real shellfish and, let me tell you, it tastes darn good!There are about seven million people in the U. S. who are allergic to shellfish. And, just like the folks who are allergic to milk, peanuts or strawberries, shellfish is just one more food allergy. Reactions include itching, hives, abdominal pain, wheezing, nausea and swelling of body parts. Nice, huh? However, I have a friend with shellfish allergies who never hesitates to dig into a bowl of boiled shrimp. The only problem is, he always comes away with a swollen face, lips and eyes, looking pretty much like a big old puffer fish! Luckily for him, these symptoms go away quickly, until the next time he eats shrimp."

Photograph: Mark Gillow/Getty The crab bruschetta sounded delicious. It claimed to be \"\"shredded crab with homemade mix of fresh tomato, red onion, basil, olive oil and black pepper\"\", and Frankie & Benny's was a respectable national restaurant chain in which to order it, but Steve Allen was not happy when it arrived. He immediately detected signs that the \"\"shredded crab\"\" was only partly real crab and rather more fake crab, despite its description on the menu of specials. Fake crab – called crab stick, crab cake or surimi – is a gluey emulsion made from the pulverised meat of cheaper species of fish, bound together with additives and salt to give it the flavour and mouth-feel of more expensive crab. Allen asked staff in two of his local Swansea branches what exactly the dish was made of, and says he was reassured that it was 100% crab. Not convinced, he complained to the company that owns Frankie & Benny's – the FTSE-listed The Restaurant Group.

So it is fish.... Thanks Follow 12 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: I am a former chef while the others are right and it is pollack your second question is were is came from and it is originally from Japan were it is known as \"\"Surimi\"\" which is Japanese for artifical, pollack is plentiful and is a good inexpensive fish to use, alot of Fish and Chip places (Long John Silvers) use it as there main product, for the surimi first they clean, skin and then fillet the fish it is then grounded and pureed, mixed with binders and seasonings, egg white or an albumen material, then cooked in long strands and finally rolled into the stick shape you see at the grocery stores, the chunk style is done the same but cut before packaging, now at one time they would add a crab flavouring, I would buy the stock from the crab processor if it were me to add the natural taste, but this not really done. I have been using it for years and remember it coming out on the market when I worked as a chef in the 1970's & 80's, most is still good but there are some that are a bit chewy and tasteless.

"text": "Are Crab Legs a Healthy Food?by NICKI WOLF Oct. 03, 2017Crab legs, sold flashed cooked and frozen in many grocery stores and specialty seafood shops, are prized for their delicate flesh and sweet taste. Thawed legs can be steamed, baked or microwaved, and the meat from crab legs is eaten plain or incorporated into a larger recipe. Crab legs contain little fat and calories and have a high nutritional value, although the sodium in crab legs may prevent those with heart or blood pressure problems from opting for this otherwise healthy seafood. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Calories and Protein A serving of one crab leg – approximately 134 g or 4.7 oz. – contains 130 calories. Bring a serving of crab legs into an ideally sized, healthy meal of 300 to 600 calories pairing it with a steamed vegetable, such as kale or carrots, and a nutritious grain. One serving of crab legs provides you with 25.9 g protein, a significant portion of the 46 to 56 g protein recommended for daily consumption. Fat and Fatty Acids Crab leg meat contains little fat; it's only 2 g per serving of crab legs. The fat you eat provides benefits to your health.

"text": "\"Mar 04 20133 Comments By Blake Stilwell TVKrabby Patty | “Spongebob Squarepants”by Blake Stilwell The first thing anyone wanted to know as I told people this would be my next post was: HOW? Actually, the cashier at the grocery store thought I was making sushi, then wouldn’t believe me when I said what I was really making. Why wouldn’t a 30-year-old be out to make the signature dish of one of television’s most beloved characters? I don’t know either because this TV trope secret is a very long time in the making, like the location of Springfield on The Simpsons or why people still watch CBS sitcoms that aren’t How I Met Your Mother. No, this is solving the mystery of the Krabby Patty*. This is deciphering a recipe that was either Mr. Krab’s since he was young or a combination of ingredients accidentally mixed together after Plankton and Krabs had a falling out when their original burger recipe failed, minus the one ingredient Plankton managed to take from the original formula. And frankly, that’s a good thing. Many have come up with their own recipes for the Krabby Patty. They range from the very high quality, gourmet style to the ” You didn’t even try ” style. The actual secret recipe, is of course hidden where no one, not even Plankton, would ever think to look. So for me, this effort took a lot of intense time and exhaustive research."

"text": "There are thousands of great dishes in the world, and considering this it is not surprising that many people have mistaken impressions of where certain cuisine comes from, or where it is popular. Many dishes that we think come from one country, either do not originate there, or are served in a completely different manner. Some things that we consider to be extremely popular in certain countries, or even believe are national dishes in certain places, may originate loosely in that country but are rarely eaten there. Below are ten common fallacies in regards to the origin of foods.10French Fries Misconception: French Fries originate in France. French Fries are incredibly popular all over the world, but the origin really wasn’t French. While the French have tried to claim them in the past, the truth is that they were invented by the Belgians. While they were invented in Belgium, and still quite popular there, some of the folklore around them is a little fantastic. The stories say that some Belgians would often fry very small fish, and when they had no fish, they would make potatoes in the shape of small fish instead. The story may sound a little fantastic, but all good folk tales do.9Chimichanga Misconception: Chimichangas are a Mexican food. Many people would name Chimichangas if you asked them to name Mexican foods, but they aren’t really a Mexican food at all."

On the left side of the body the subclavian comes directly from the aortic arch whereas on the right side it arises from the brachiocephalic trunk. Both course above the cervical pleura towards the anterior scalene muscle and through the posterior scalene gap (between the anterior and medial scalene muscles). It enters the axilla between the first rib and the clavicle and becomes the axillary artery. Subclavian artery - ventral view Subclavian Artery Branches The Thoracic Region During its course it gives off numerous branches. In the thoracic region, the following branches arise medial to the scalenus anterior muscle: Vertebral Artery The first artery is the vertebral artery which ascends until it reaches the vertebral column at the transverse foramen of the sixth or seventh cervical vertebra. Vertebral artery Internal Thoracic Artery Second is the internal thoracic artery which runs in the opposite direction to the vertebral artery behind the sternum and costal cage. It branches off into three smaller arteries: The superior epigastric artery arises and runs below the costal margin, entering the rectus sheath. The pericardiophrenic artery accompanies the phrenic artery at the level of the fourth cervical vertebra and helps supply the pericardium. The musculophrenic artery supplies the upper musculature of the diaphragm."

"text": "Serratus-intercostal Plane block. An encouraging approach for breast surgery Attachment: perez FIGURE1A.jpg We read with interest the article by Blanco et al regarding serratus plane block [1] and agree that this is a novel technique. This technique was first described by Fajardo et al at the ESRA Spain Congress 2012 and published in September 2012 [2]. In 2013 our group published a new ultrasound-guided technique to block the cutaneous branches of the intercostal nerves, injecting local anaesthetic (LA) between serratus anterior (SAM) and external intercostal (EIM) muscles in the mid axillary line [3]. In April 2013 Dieguez et al [4] conducted a prospective observational study in 30 patients scheduled for non-reconstructive breast and axilla surgery. We have been performing this block injection for more than three years in a total of 115 patients and prefer to call it Serratus-intercostal plane block (SIFP) because the LA is placed into the fascial plane between SAM and EIM. These offer several advantages over the Blanco approach. These techniques are relatively simple to perform, and may be associated with a lower risk of complications. To perform the anterior ultrasound approach, we place the linear probe below the outer third of the clavicle, similar to Fajardo´s Pec´s approach [5]. We identify in the surface plane the pectoralis muscles, the thoraco-acromial artery and cephalic vein, between both muscles, in the deep plane identifying SAM resting on the ribs. We introduce the block needle in plane from medial to lateral, and place the tip of needle between SAM and EIM. A test bolus is then real-time injected to determine the correct position of the tip needle within the serratus-intercostal fascial plane. The injection usually consists of 0,4ml/kg of levobupivacaine 0.375% plus adrenaline 1.200."

"text": "\"The Process of Breathing Pulmonary ventilation is the act of breathing, which can be described as the movement of air into and out of the lungs. The major mechanisms that drive pulmonary ventilation are atmospheric pressure ( P atm ); the air pressure within the alveoli, called intra-alveolar pressure ( P alv ); and the pressure within the pleural cavity, called intrapleural pressure ( P ip ). Mechanisms of Breathing The intra-alveolar and intrapleural pressures are dependent on certain physical features of the lung. However, the ability to breathe—to have air enter the lungs during inspiration and air leave the lungs during expiration—is dependent on the air pressure of the atmosphere and the air pressure within the lungs. Pressure Relationships Inspiration (or inhalation) and expiration (or exhalation) are dependent on the differences in pressure between the atmosphere and the lungs. In a gas, pressure is a force created by the movement of gas molecules that are confined. For example, a certain number of gas molecules in a two-liter container has more room than the same number of gas molecules in a one-liter container ( [link] ). In this case, the force exerted by the movement of the gas molecules against the walls of the two-liter container is lower than the force exerted by the gas molecules in the one-liter container. Therefore, the pressure is lower in the two-liter container and higher in the one-liter container. At a constant temperature, changing the volume occupied by the gas changes the pressure, as does changing the number of gas molecules."

The scalene muscles elevate the 1st and 2nd ribs and bend the neck to the side. So what’s left? The muscles of the thoracic cage that help you breathe — namely, the diaphragm and respiratory muscles: The thoracic cage is made up of bones and cartilage along with joints and an assortment of muscles and other soft tissues. The part that opens into the neck is called the superior thoracic aperture, and the bottom of the thoracic cage (the inferior thoracic aperture) is closed by a muscle called the diaphragm. Its main function is to protect your heart, lungs, and major blood vessels located inside. The diaphragm: The main respiratory muscle found in the thorax is called the diaphragm. It’s a thin muscle that curves up into two dome shapes called cupulae. The diaphragm separates the thoracic cavity from the abdominal cavity and has openings that allow structures to pass from one cavity to the other. The diaphragm can be divided into three parts: Sternal: Originates (attaches) at the xiphoid."

The trunk, or torso, of the human body contains several important muscle groups that aid in breathing and provide support to other parts of our anatomy. This lesson explores the location and function of the major axial muscles. Trunk Muscles Believe it or not, when I was in college, I did hundreds of sits-ups every day to get a 'six-pack' of abdominal muscles. These sits-ups, along with other similar exercises, work our oblique (that is, not straight) as well as our rectus (or straight) muscles located in the body wall of our trunk. These oblique and rectus muscles are axial muscles, as they're located in the middle, or the axis, of the body. A transverse section of the abdominal muscles Most people will think of trunk muscles as being located anteriorly (that is, in the front) in the belly area of the abdomen. But, if we look at a transverse section of the abdominal area (above), we see that these muscles run from the vertebral column in the back, around the abdomen, all the way to the ventral midline in the front. Due to their attachments, trunk muscles help to flex the vertebral column, compress abdominal contents, and even help with breathing, or ventilation. These muscles can be categorized based on their location; that is, the cervical region, thoracic region, and abdominal region."

In inspiration, ribs 2 to 6 move upwards and forwards to increase the antero-posterior diameter of the thoracic cage (pump handle action), while ribs 7 to 10 move upwards and outwards, to increase the side-to-side diameter (bucket-handle action). Inspiratory movement of the chest wall is effected by the intercostal muscles, arranged in three layers: the external, internal, and (incomplete) innermost intercostals. Between the first and second layer, lying protected by the subcostal groove of the upper rib in the space, lies the intercostal neurovascular bundle, made up of the intercostal nerve, artery and vein from below upwards. The posterior intercostal vessels anastomose with anterior intercostal vessels. The neurovascular bundles from 7th downwards continue into the anterior abdominal wall to supply both the skin and anterior abdominal muscles. The muscles of the anterior abdominal wall relax in inspiration to allow full descent of the diaphragm; inspiration is inhibited by a tight corset. In full expiration the anterior abdominal muscles contract, thus raising the intra-abdominal pressure to elevate the relaxed diaphragm. Other accessory muscles are the scalenes and sternocleidomastoid, which elevate the first rib, and muscles of the limb girdles acting, from their insertions to their attachments, on the chest wall, which include the pectorals, latissimus dorsi and serratus anterior.

And then at the back, we've got this serratus posterior and we've got superior and inferior muscle. Read more We’ll start with the superior muscle. As you can see here, the serratus posterior superior originates on the spinous processes of the vertebra. It originates from C7 to T3 on these spinous processes and it inserts on the upper borders of the 2 nd to 5 th ribs."

The movement is most often a sign that the person has a breathing problem. Intercostal retractions are a medical emergency. Alternative Names Retractions of the chest muscles Considerations The wall of your chest is flexible. This helps you breathe normally. Stiff tissue called cartilage attaches your ribs to the breast bone (sternum). The intercostal muscles are the muscles between the ribs. During breathing, these muscles normally tighten and pull the rib cage up. Your chest expands and the lungs fill with air. Intercostal retractions are due to reduced air pressure inside your chest."

"text": "\"SKELETAL MUSCLEI) Structure of a Skeletal Muscle: Each muscle is surrounded by a dense irregular sheath of connective tissue called the epimysium. Each bundle of muscle fibers called a fascicle is covered by a layer of fibrous connective tissue called the perimysium. Each muscle fiber within the fascicle is covered by a layer of connective tissue consisting of mostly reticular fibers called the endomysium. All three connective tissue layers converge and join with each other to form the tendon so that when the muscle fibers contract they pull on the connective tissue sheaths which forms into the tendon transmitting the force along the tendon to move the bone. II) Skeletal muscle interaction:1) Skeletal muscles are attached to bones by tendons. The two points at which they are attached are called the point of insertion (attachment on the bone that it moves) and the point of insertion (attachment point of attachment). As a muscle shortens or contracts it moves toward the point of insertion resulting in a \"\"pulling\"\" force on the bone that it moves.2) Muscles are classified into four functional groups:a) Prime movers or agonists are muscles that produce a particular force that produces a specific movement such as the biceps brachii which inserts on the radius and flexes the elbow.b) Antagonists are muscles that oppose or reverse a particular movement and are located on the opposite side of the agonist. The antagonist of the biceps brachii would be the triceps brachii. The triceps will relax when the elbow is flexed by the biceps or it may be partially contracted to slow down or even stop flexion of the elbow. The triceps brachii when contracted will extend the elbow and then can be classified as the prime mover and then the biceps becomes the antagonistc) Synergists are muscles which help prime movers perform their movement by adding extra force or they can be used to reduce unnecessary movement as the prime mover contracts such as the synergists which stabilize our wrist as we make a fist."

"text": "Inspiration and Expiration Last Updated on Tue, 03 Apr 2018 | Human Physiology Between the bony portions of the rib cage are two layers of intercostal muscles: the external intercostal muscles and the internal intercostal muscles (fig. 16.14). Between the costal cartilages, however, there is only one muscle layer, and its fibers are oriented in a manner similar to those of the internal inter-costals. These muscles are therefore called the interchondral part of the internal intercostals. Another name for them is the parasternal intercostals. An unforced, or quiet, inspiration results primarily from contraction of the dome-shaped diaphragm, which lowers and flattens when it contracts. This increases thoracic volume in a vertical direction. Inspiration is aided by contraction of the parasternal and external intercostals, which raise the ribs when they contract and increase thoracic volume laterally. Other thoracic muscles become involved in forced (deep) inspiration. The most important of these are the scalenes, followed by the pec-toralis minor, and in extreme cases the sternocleidomastoid muscles."

And pie dough is easy to make. Really. If our forebears could turn out legendary pies without refrigeration, without air conditioning, and with temperamental wood stoves and hearths, we can easily do the same. The only thing we are lacking today that our grandmothers and great-grandmothers possessed is confidence and the heirloom know-how that used to be passed down from mother to daughter.

Generally, Women change their surname after marriage and keep it same as the husband’s surname. Surname and maiden name have a close connection with each other. Maiden name is also a surname but is associated with a married woman. Oxford Dictionary defines Maiden Name as ‘the surname that a married woman used before she was married and which she may still use when married, especially in her employment’. To find out the difference between these terms, let us first understand the term surname. A surname is a family name that a person shares with other family members.

Joy Behar, celebrated performer and original co-host of “The View,” actress Candace Cameron Bure, known to television audiences for decades on the enormously successful “Full House,” and Paula Faris, “Good Morning America Weekend” co-anchor, join moderator Whoopi Goldberg, Raven-Symoné and Michelle Collins as co-hosts. “As ‘The View’ embarks on a remarkable 19th season, I am extremely proud to see the legacy of smart and diverse women engaging in entertaining and thought-provoking conversation continue,” said Barbara Walters, creator and executive producer. Daytime Emmy® Award-winner Behar returns to co-host “The View.” She is one of the most-beloved personalities in the talk show’s history having co-hosted for seasons 1-16. While equally at ease performing standup comedy or interviewing politicians and celebrities, Behar brings honesty, humor, irreverence, with an authentic and intelligent point of view on every topic. “Just when I thought I was out, they pulled me back in,” said Behar. “ Plus, Steve was getting tired of applauding every time I gave my opinion. But I’m happy to be back home. And I'm looking forward to sticking my two cents into the hot topics, especially now that Hillary and the Donald are in the spotlight."

The band shortened the name because none of the band members at the time wanted to be called \"\"Cosmic Corn Cob\"\", and they did not want the name to sound similar to the Amazing Rhythm Aces. The band is sometimes also affectionately referred to by its fans as \"\"The Ducks\"\". Kelly O'Shea from The Titanic Blues Band filled lead guitar from 1991 to 1994. Formation and the Family Tree [ edit]In 1971 Randle Chowning formed a band which included himself, Steve Cash, John Dillon, Elizabeth Anderson, Larry Lee and Michael Granda that began playing together with Bill Jones (flute, horns, formerly of Mike Bunge's band Granny's Bathwater) and Rick Campanelli (piano) at Springfield, Missouri's New Bijou Theater for small crowds of friends on Wednesday night under the name \"\"Family Tree\"\" (\"\"Emergency Band\"\", \"\"Burlap Socks\"\" and \"\"Buffalo Chips\"\" were other names they considered for this grouping in the early days)."

Marc Moderator Posts: 23734Joined: Thu May 23, 2002 8:01 am Re: Autostickby Marc » Thu Nov 07, 2013 7:57 am An Auto Stick car can be converted to 4-speed relatively easily, especially if a \"\"donor\"\" car of the same vintage is available. It'd be helpful if you could provide the year of your friend's car - that might spare me a whole lot of typing. You imply that your friend wants to keep the car Auto Stick. I CANNOT endorse that, unless he has a physical disability which makes it impossible for him to drive a manual transmission, or the car is some very rare example, say a late Convertible, which theoretically could have a higher collector value if not converted. It IS possible to convert a \"\"4-speed\"\" engine with the following caveats. The primary difference between an \"\"Auto Stick\"\" engine and one that was intended for a 4-speed is the oil pump, as sideshow indicated. The Auto Stick flexplate rides extremely close to the engine case...so close that the factory chose to install the \"\"cam-plug\"\" backwards so that in the event of excess crankshaft endplay developing the flexplate would not saw through the plug and cause a fatal oil leak."

Do you see the problem? The white pipe sticking up out of the roof is a plumbing vent. The rubber boot at the base of the plumbing vent is part of the flashing kit for this vent, and the boot has dried out and split. Here's another photo of a split rubber boot, taken from the same roof at a different location. In preparation for this blog post, I hopped up on my own roof and took a look at the flashing on my own plumbing vents. I bet you can guess what I found. I ought to inspect my own roof more often. This is what happens to those cheap rubber boots over time. They seem to last about 10-15 years here in Minnesota."

Lifestyle 11/14/2014 @ 5:49PM 12,603 views How To Explore Venice Like A True Venetian Roberto Coin Contributor , Roberto Coin By Sophia Macris If Rome is the eternal city, then Venice is surely the enchanted city. Even thousands of tourists with Crocs and selfie sticks cannot mitigate the sheer romance of the Grand Canal, though we’d all rather avoid them. These tips allow you to experience the best of the city without the marauding hordes. Arriving in Venice is a treat: by air, you have to take a water taxi to the city. The train ride takes you on a long bridge from Mestre (the mainland town) with a breathtaking view of Venice rising from the sea. And then you’re dropped, promptly, in the center of a city unlike any other. No streets, just narrow pathways (“calle” in the Venetian dialect) and bridges. Luckily, the Aman Canal Grande has a private gondola dock, and you’re whisked away into a palazzo fit for a duke. The Aman is beautifully restored, without the rococo excess of most Venetian hotels; here, the interiors retain their heritage of grandeur, complemented by clean, modern furnishings."

This Piemontese biscotti resembles lady fingers, though they're about twice as thick. Savoiardi also figure prominently in several desserts, including puddings and tiramisu, as they absorb liquids excellently. Ingredients [ edit]400 g self raising flour1 tsp baking powder1 cup white sugar1 cup oil4 eggsthe juice of 2 lemonspowdered sugarpure vanilla extract Procedure [ edit]Beat the eggs, then add sugar, oil, vanilla, baking powder and lemon juice and stir until combined. Slowly mix in flour with a wooden spoon, continually adding until you have a very thick batter (you may need more or less flour). On a large flat surface, a cutting board or plate, sift powdered sugar. Using teaspoons, drop a walnut-sized ball of batter onto the sugar, roll into an oval over the sugar. Place rolls onto cookie pan covered with wax paper, cover rolls on pans with a single layer of wax paper. Place pans into the oven at 200°C (392°F).

The St. Louis sandwich is a prime example. \"\" The St. Paul sandwich is a curiosity of St. Louis, a city with a penchant for creating odd sandwiches like those made with brains or snoots and ears. While one might assume the sandwich with the moniker of \"\"St. Paul\"\" would have originated in Minnesota, foo authorities claim that it has nothing whatsoever to do with that area. Rather, it's a noted specialty of the Chinese restaurants in the St. Louis, Missouri area. The origin of today's St. Paul sandwich may be an enigma, but reports say that it was a popular offering in St. Louis as far back as the 1960s and perhaps earlier; one source states 1943. Most folks, including St. Louis writer Thomas Crone, believe that Chinese restauranteurs who wanted to tempt the sandwich-living American palate created it. This theory maintains that the sandwich is based on egg foo yung, and old Chinese recipe that has become thoroughly Americanized. Others believe that St. Paul was originally another term for the Denver sandwich and later adapted by Chinese restaurants."

"text": "\"Tingling in arms and hands Tingling in arms and hands is the most common complaint at the chiropractic coalface, after lower back pain. Dear Chiropractors, add your practice to our Directory This is a long and important page. Pour a strong cup of tea, and get comfortable. Tingling is primarily a sign of nerve irritation or damage. That could be in the brain or spinal cord, but more usually it is in the neck, or trapped between the first rib and clavicle. Some times that problem may be somewhere in the upper extremity, for example at the funny bone, or in the forearm by the two bellies of the pronator teres muscle as occurs in the carpal tunnel syndrome. Take special note of which fingers are tingling; is it in the tongue also? Or are you feeling the paresthesias, as they are known, around your lips? Do movements of the neck provoke the pain in the upper limb? What about raising your arms in the air; does that increase or relieve the tingling?"

Meg has reached the ripe old age of 25 by shunning regular dog food in favour of human treats. The pampered pet - who is 113 in dog years - is now believed to be the oldest pooch in the UK following the death of the previous title holder, who died in July aged 23.+4Doting Owner: Jack Russell, Meg, pictured with her owner David Abrahams, has been named Britain's oldest dog after reaching 113 in dog years Meg was rescued from a puppy farm 23 years ago by doting owner David Abrahams when she was just 18 months old. She developed a taste for soft food, such as canned Peppa Pig pasta shapes in a tomato sauce, after her teeth began to fail. Her other human favourites include, gluten free fish fingers and roast dinners. Mr Abrahams said: 'I think she's lived so long because she's a tough little cookie and she's had the right diet and exercise. ' The fish fingers and the Peppa Pig pasta have helped her along the way. ' As she got older she got extremely fussy. She won't eat the same meal twice in a row. If you make her a roast beef dinner, the next day she won't eat it."

"text": "\"The Ed Sullivan Show Information The Ed Sullivan Show is an American TV variety show that originally ran on CBS from Sunday June 20, 1948 to Sunday June 6, 1971, and was hosted by New York entertainment columnist Ed Sullivan. It was replaced in September 1971 by the CBS Sunday Night Movie, which ran only one season and was eventually replaced by other shows. In 2002, The Ed Sullivan Show was ranked #15 on TV Guide's 50 Greatest TV Shows of All Time. History From 1949 until its cancelation in 1971, the show ran on CBS every Sunday night from 8\"\"9 p.m. E. T., and is one of the few entertainment shows to have run in the same weekly time slot on the same network for more than two decades. ( During its first season, it ran from 9\"\"10 p.m. E. T.) Virtually every type of entertainment appeared on the show; opera singers, popular artists, songwriters, comedians, ballet dancers, dramatic actors performing monologues from plays, and circus acts were regularly featured. The format was essentially the same as vaudeville, and although vaudeville had died a generation earlier, Sullivan presented many ex-vaudevillians on his show. Originally cocreated and produced by Marlo Lewis, the show was first titled Toast of the Town, but was widely referred to as The Ed Sullivan Show for years before September 25, 1955, when that became its official name. In the show's June 20, 1948 debut, Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis performed along with singer Monica Lewis and Broadway composers Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II previewing the score to their then-new show South Pacific, which opened on Broadway in 1949. The Ed Sullivan Show was originally broadcast via live television from the Maxine Elliott Theatre at Broadway and 39th St. before moving to its permanent home at CBS-TV Studio 50 in New York City (1697 Broadway, at 53rd Street), which was renamed The Ed Sullivan Theater on the occasion of the program's 20th anniversary in June 1968. The last original Sullivan show telecast (#1068) was on March 28, 1971 with guests Melanie, Joanna Simon, Danny Davis and the Nashville Brass, and Sandler and Young."

Loratadine is an antihistamine that is used for reducing different symptoms of allergies, and belongs to the second-generation medications of antihistamines. Active ingredients reduce the histamine in the body that naturally defenses it from the substances that are identified as harmful. Allergy symptoms (of different types) are how the defense mechanism is seen. Loratadine reduces these symptoms:watery eyeseyes rednessitching (especially in case of chronic skin reactions)hives (itching and redness caused by hives)sneezingrunny nose Loratadine is the most standard treatment for hives (among several other medications as clematine, diphenhydramine and chlorpheniramine).

"text": "Dogs > Medicine Loratadine for Dogs Loratadine, perhaps best known by its brand name Claritin, is a popular over-the-counter antihistamine for people. It can also be given safely to dogs under veterinary supervision. How Loratadine Helps Allergic Dogs As an antihistamine, loratadine’s main function is to counteract the effects of histamine in an allergic person or animal. Histamine is a chemical that an allergic dog’s immune system creates in response to a trigger from an allergen (such as pollen, food ingredients or flea saliva). Reddened skin, hives and swelling can all be caused by the overproduction of histamine in your dog’s body after he begins to suffer an allergy attack. In extreme cases, your dog’s airway can become obstructed as the tissues in his throat swell, and this can quickly become a life-threatening condition. Conditions Loratadine Can Help Treat Loratadine is especially effective in treating allergies that result in skin irritation, such as atopic canine dermatitis. Symptoms of atopic canine dermatitis include:chewing of the feet and legsexcessive scratchinghair loss and hot spots Causes can include inhaled allergens such as dust mites, mold or pollen. Dogs that suffer from this condition often benefit from a combination of treatments that include antihistamines, anti-inflammatory medications, changes in diet and fatty acid supplements. Another condition that loratadine can help treat is inflammation that results from mast cell tumors."

"text": "Loratadine (Claritin®, Alavert®) for Dogs and Cats Drug Library >9 Jul, 2015 Dr. Debra Primovic - DVM 39,861 Views Share Overview of Loratadine for Dogs and Cats Loratadine, commonly known as Claritin® or Alavert®, is a type of antihistamine drug commonly used in dogs and cats to control itchy skin. Loratadine is considered less sedating than other antihistamines. The use of loratadine in dogs and cats has been limited. Much of the information about how loratadine works in dogs and cats, as well as its side effects, has largely been extrapolated from human literature and information about the other antihistamines more commonly used in dogs. Histamine is a chemical that is released in the body in response to an inflammation or allergy. This chemical travels throughout the body searching for specific histamine receptors (targets on cells). Once attached to the receptors, histamine will cause swelling, itchiness, and other symptoms associated with an allergic response. There are two types of histamine receptors: H1 and H2. H1 receptors affect small blood vessels and smooth muscles. When histamine attaches to the H1 receptors, the small blood vessels dilate, and fluid begins to leak out."

"text": "\"Difference Between Cetirizine and Loratadine• Categorized under Drugs | Difference Between Cetirizine and Loratadine Cetirizine vs Loratadine If you are one of those persons who frequently experiences hypersensitivity reactions, otherwise known as allergies, then you may be a regular user of antihistamines (anti-allergy drugs). Obviously, your doctor has been prescribing you different types of antihistamines depending on your need or your relative reaction to the drug. Two types of second-generation antihistamines have become widely used nowadays: Cetirizine and Loratadine. These drugs are indicated for ordinary allergies, watery eyes, itchiness, and sneezing, but are not prescribed for use in hives and allergies that are systemic in nature. Even if it is your doctor who is the one prescribing your anti-allergy medications, it is also important that you yourself know the nature of the drug you’re taking. Also, before you ask your doctor what kind of antihistamine is the most effective for your case, you must first put into consideration one basic fact: different types of people will react differently to different types of drugs. So you really can’t say that Cetirizine is more effective than Loratadine and vice versa. The only available literature, however, are test results or studies that may show which of the two have been seen to be more effective for a particular case; though this shouldn’t be generalized for all situations. Using controlled environments and the same amount of 10mg preparations, some studies have shown that Cetirizine works better for allergic rhinitis as opposed to using Loratadine in treating the same. Another study has shown that Cetirizine can induce more sleepiness than the other."

"text": "\"What Is Claritin-D (Loratadine and Pseudoephedrine)?21 Reviews Claritin-D is the brand name of a medicine that combines the antihistamine Claritin ( loratadine) and a nasal decongestant (pseudoephedrine). Combined, loratadine and pseudoephedrine reduce symptoms such as a runny or stuffed nose, sinus pressure, itchy red eyes or skin, and the phlegm from a cough. Loratadine is a type of antihistamine that stops your body's H1 receptor from activation by histamines, a part of your self-protective immune system that expands blood vessels and causes nasal congestion and phlegm. Unlike other H1-blocking antihistamines, such as Benadryl (diphenhydramine), loratadine is less likely to make you drowsy. The decongestant pseudoephedrine reduces \"\"congestion\"\" by contracting blood vessels. The drug was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1994 (12-hour formula) and 1996 (24-hour formula). Claritin-D is usually available over-the-counter (OTC) as a pill in the United States without a prescription, although it is kept behind the pharmacy counter and you may be required to register your name when you ask for it. Since it contains pseudoephedrine (commonly known by the brand name Sudafed), which has been used illegally to make the drug methamphetamine (\"\"meth\"\"), restrictions on its sale vary in the United States. Some states have passed or are considering laws that require a doctor's prescription for Claritin-D and other pseudoephedrine drugs. Warnings for Claritin-DBefore taking Claritin-D, you should tell your doctor if you have or have ever had: Glaucoma (an eye condition)Kidney disease High blood pressure Heart disease Stroke Diabetes A thyroid disorder A bladder obstruction or other urination issues (such as an enlarged prostrate)Call your physician if you have a cough, skin rash, or fever with a headache, or if your symptoms don't improve after seven days of taking Claritin-D. As with many medications, you shouldn't use Claritin-D if you've taken a monoamine oxidase inhibitor ( MAOI) in the past 14 days, because a dangerous drug interaction can occur."

They say don't take two doses, but one doesn't normally work too well and I can't afford a doctor to ask. Anyone had any experiences?1 following 4 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: The answer to that depends on whether your dose is prescription strength or over the counter strength. The answer also depends on your weight. If you are over 200 pounds, sometimes 2 tablets is really the effective dose. While homeboy above me is mostly correct, he is not totally correct. They also have to make sure the dose is safe for 12 year olds that weigh 100 pounds to get the correct labeling. And while there are only a certain number of sites (correct), taking more increases the odds that those receptors remain blocked from the effects of histamine. Risks of taking too much (overdose levels) include liver and kidney issues. Let's ask Mr. Pharmacologist to read a little about the clinical trials and comments from the FDA (link attached)."

The phonograph was invented by Thomas Edison in 1877 and it used wax cylinders to play back recordings. This invention lead to a recorded music market that began to appear in the 1880s. The gramophone was then created in the late 1880s and it used flat discs to reproduce sound, becoming popular in the early 1900s and replacing the phonograph. The way the music was recorded changed in the mid-1920s when the acoustical recording process was replaced with the electrical process. This change made the way that recordings were made sound much better and more natural, helping to expand the popularity of recorded music. As the recording process improved, a number of independent record labels also began to appear during the 1920s. These record labels helped to expand the modern music industry because they took risks and and were more adventurous with their song and artist choices. Prior to the creation of the recorded music industry, popular music was shared through sheet music, piano rolls, and live shows."

The relatives accompanying Emmett knew this whistle from a black male could cause trouble, and they left with Till in haste. On August 28, 1955, at approximately 2:30 a.m., Roy Bryant (the store owner) and his half brother, J. W.

Here at the Charles Dickens Museum we hold letters in our archive detailing requests to the landlord for painting and cleaning at 48 Doughty Street (a Georgian townhouse in Bloomsbury that Catherine and Charles Dickens called home from 1837–39). Dickens made various changes to the property, particularly the drawing room. He removed the unfashionable dado rail [a decorative waist-high moulding round the wall of a room], hung wallpaper, and installed a fitted carpet and a veined marble hearth stone. Decorative items in our collection such as ostentatious gilt candlesticks illustrate Dickens’ preferred style. At Doughty Street and in subsequent homes, Catherine participated in decision-making about decorating, but she still had to contend with Dickens’ strong opinions on the matter. While travelling in northern Italy in 1844, Dickens wrote home to Catherine, urging her not to rearrange furniture in his absence: “Keep things in their places. I can’t bear to picture them otherwise. ”48 Doughty Street, today the Charles Dickens Museum. ("

Augusta National co-founders Clifford Roberts (from left) and Bobby Jones talk with Eisenhower in 1953. Roberts urged Eisenhower to become a member in 1948. Eisenhower visited Augusta National 45 times but never during the Masters. President Eisenhower wears a big smile, and a button to match, which reads, \"\"Don't ask what I shot,\"\" at his golf match with Sen. Robert A. Taft of Ohio at Augusta National Country Club, Augusta, GA, April 20, 1953. The button was handed to the chief executive by a newsman shortly before he reached the first tee for his match with Taft.

We counted time by its seasons, growing up and growing old, and even those of us who went away never really left it. It was a fitting place for my grandfather to be buried, and in the six months since his death we had learned to live with our grief. We never looked up at the mountain without feeling his strength. We were to need it: the year was 1941 and there was a tension in the air that threatened to pull us apart\"\". Part 1John admits he still feels ‘awfully empty’ after the death of his father.

After helping Madoka rescue Kyubey, she contracts with him to grant her wish to heal the wounded hand of Kyosuke Kamijo, a young violinist that she is infatuated with, visiting him daily in the hospital. As a magical girl, Sayaka's weapon of choice is a cutlass, being able to produce multiples of them at a time. She also has an extraordinary regenerative ability due to the healing nature of her wish. Sayaka insists that her wish is selfless and feels that fighting witches to save people is a bonus, even after witnessing Mami's death. As Sayaka's ideals are put against the reality of her wish's consequences and the stress of fighting, her view of the world is slowly corrupted. She becomes hateful and distrustful towards others, including Madoka, whom she lashes out at and accuses of being selfish. Because of this, Sayaka seems to be based off the original story of the Little Mermaid, because like the little mermaid who saves the prince from near-death, Sayaka heals Kyousuke; like how the little mermaid gives up her tongue to become a human and get the prince to fall in love and marry her, Sayaka gives up her humanity so she can heal Kyousuke and also get him to fall in love with her; like the prince instead falls in love with another princess and breaks the mermaid's heart, Kyousuke falls in love with Hitomi, breaking Sayaka's heart; Finally, like the little mermaid is told to kill the prince and have his blood drip onto her feet so she can turn back into a mermaid, but doesn't and turns to sea foam, Sayaka refuses to cleanse her tainting Soul Gem, causing her to turn into a witch, who is like a mermaid. After learning that her soul is no longer in her body, but in her soul gem, Sayaka starts to believe she is a zombie; and when her friend Hitomi confesses to her about her love of Kyosuke, Sayaka falls into isolation and refuses all help."

Mamie \"\"Peanut\"\" Johnson at the ballpark named in her honor at Washington's Rosedale Recreation Center. In the 1950s, several years after Jackie Robinson became the first black player to take the field in a major-league game in the 20th century, Mamie \"\"Peanut\"\" Johnson made baseball history of her own. She may have been slight, at 5-foot-4 and less than 120 pounds, but she had a strong right arm and a competitive spirit that took her from the sandlots of Washington into professional baseball, with the Indianapolis Clowns of the old Negro leagues. Johnson stood out in a world of hardened men, grueling travel and low pay as one of three women to play in the Negro leagues, and the only one who was a pitcher. Her achievements have been honored at the White House, at the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum in Kansas City, Missouri, in a play and a book and at a neighborhood ballpark near her home in Northeast D. C. She died Dec. 18 at a Washington hospital at age 82. The cause was a heart ailment, said a stepdaughter, Yvonne Livingston. Johnson's brief professional baseball career ended before her 20th birthday, but in that time she accumulated amassed a lifetime of colorful tales about a bygone era of baseball born of segregation. \"\" Those were some of the most enjoyable years of my life,\"\" she told the Associated Press in 1998. \"\" Striking out the fellows made me happy. \"\""

"text": "\"From the outset, it must be emphatically stated that the name Mami Wata is plural, meaning it refers to apantheon of ancient water deities. Mami Wata are not part of the Yoruba pantheon of Orishas (i.e., Yemoja, Oshun etc.,), nor are their initiation ceremonies or means by which they are identified the same. The history of the priesthood of Mama Wata is overwhelmingly matriarchal, meaning that the Mami Watas are a part of the old African matriarchal, sacerdotal religious systems that once ruled and denominated Africa and many parts of the ancient world for thousands of years. Anyone, from anywhere (the world over) can be born to Mami Wata, for any number of reasons. This article briefly discusses its ancient presence in Africa, and more particularly, Togo, West Africa and other West African regions where many Africans in the North American Diaspora descend. . The mystical pantheon of Mami Wata deities are often pictured in their most ancient primordial aspects as a mermaid, half-human or either half-fish or half-reptile. Mermaids are not a recent phenomena in African history. For example, according to the Dogon’s creation myth, they attribute the creation of the world to mermaid/mermen like creatures whom they call Nommos. They claimed to have known about the existence of these mermaid-like divinities for more than 4000 years."

Fossils of this genus date to the Late Jurassic period, where they are found in Kimmeridgian to early Tithonian aged strata, between 155 and 150 million years ago, in the western United States of America and Portugal. Of the species that have been classified in the upper Morrison Formation of the western U. S, only three are universally recognized; S. stenops, S. ungulatus and S. sulcatus. The remains of over 80 individual animals of this genus have been found. [ 2] Stegosaurus would have lived alongside dinosaurs such as Apatosaurus, Diplodocus, Brachiosaurus, Allosaurus, and Ceratosaurus; the latter two may have been predators of it. These were large, heavily built, herbivorous quadrupeds with rounded backs, short fore limbs, long hind limbs, and tails held high in the air. Due to their distinctive combination of broad, upright plates and tail tipped with spikes, Stegosaurus is one of the most recognizable kinds of dinosaur. The function of this array of plates and spikes has been the subject of much speculation among scientists. Today, it is generally agreed that their spiked tails were most likely used for defense against predators, while their plates may have been used primarily for display, and secondarily for thermoregulatory functions."

As a result, breath CH4 excretion can be used as an indicator of the in situ activity of the methanogenic flora. All CH4 produced in human beings is a metabolic product of intestinal bacteria, and about 50% of CH4 produced in the gut is absorbed and excreted in expired air. Because there appears to be no catabolism of this gas by other colonic organisms or host cells, breath CH4 measurements provide a rapid, simple means of semi quantitatively assessing the ongoing in situ metabolism of the methanogenic flora. It could seem likely that the intracolonic activity of a variety of bacteria similarly might be assessed quantitatively via analysis of expired air. However, the application of this methodology has been confounded by the rapid catabolism of many volatile bacterial products by other bacteria or human tissue. A striking aspect of the studies of breath CH4 measurements is the enormous individual variations in the excretion of this gas. Virtually all children under 5 years of age and 66% of the adult population do not exhale appreciable quantities of CH4. The remaining 34% of the adult population has appreciable breath methane concentrations of up to 80 ppm (mean, 15. 2 ppm; median, 11."

As a result, increasing numbers of people have thought, “Since we have found all these fossils and dinosaur bones, we know dinosaurs existed. How come they are not mentioned in the Bible?”Actually, dinosaurs are mentioned in the Bible, and we will prove it by doing the following three things: Examining the Bible’s text and the related scientific facts. Explaining the accuracy of the Bible. Exploring what we are taught in school and through the media. The Bible’s Text The Bible refers to many the common animals we know today. The list includes lions, wolves, bears, sheep, cattle and dogs along with various kinds of birds, rodents, reptiles, and insects. What is interesting is that this extensive list includes three animals that we no longer recognize.

Hollister Buch Printing Company1952Geography is mostly concerned with area and space on the surface of the earth. However, in order to get a proper understanding of the nature of the surface and its origin, it will be necessary to devote some time to a study of what lies beneath the surface. We use maps a great deal to illustrate our concepts of the earth; these are very old devices, dating back to the times of the Babylonians and the Egyptians. They show various features of the surface of the earth such as land areas, seas, river, lakes, roads, towns, and other similar items. Our primary aim in the study of geography is the relationship between man and where he lives. We want to see how natural conditions of climate and land resources will contribute to affect the lives of the people living in any given region. We are likely to meet the word “region” often in our study of geography. Think of it as referring to a more or less uniform area, whether of land types and formation, human culture, farming, mining, or other related features. For this study Cameron Parish may conveniently be divided into two main parts which are usually referred to as Upper Cameron and Lower Cameron. A line drawn through the middle of the parish from east to west will fairly separate them."

It comprises 10.0 square miles, although 4.1 miles are open water and wetlands and not suitable for development. Of the 5.9 miles of developed land, 70% is used for housing. Revere is located approximately 5 miles from downtown Boston. Revere’s first inhabitants were Native Americans who belonged to the Pawtucket Tribe and were known as the Rumney Marsh Indians. The leader, or sachem, of the Pawtuckets was Nanepashemet of Lynn. Before colonization of the area by the English, the Indians were ravaged by war and plague, which greatly reduced their numbers. The neighboring Taratines, living east of Penobscott, waged the war, which lasted many years, and the numerous raids conducted by this tribe took their toll on the local Indians. In 1616, an epidemic, probably smallpox, which was more devastating than the wars, swept the region killing thousands in its wake. Nanepashemet retired to the Mystic River in what is now Medford, but was found murdered in 1619 at his fort on the brow of Rock Hill overlooking the river."

"text": "Antique lamps span a broad spectrum, including well known-styles like Victorian and slag glass and leading names like Tiffany, Handel, and Aladdin. Values vary greatly and reproductions abound, so do your homework. The earliest type of lamp, the oil lamp, was a simplistic vessel with an absorbent wick. These were mass-produced starting in the 19th century. Manufacturers of these antique lamps typically made the metal base and burner and bought the glass from another manufacturer. Between the 1840s and the early 1900s, during the Victorian Era, oil lamps and candelabras coexisted with early electric lamps. In 1908, Aladdin Industries Inc. created the Aladdin lamp, an oil lamp so bright that no one could find another that compared, despite Aladdin's offer of a thousand dollars if they could. The biggest development in lamps toward the end of the 1800s was the growing popularity of ornate glass lamp shades, often with floral imagery. Lamps started to become a decorative, rather than just functional, item. Slag glass (pressed glass with milky stripes), for example, became popular in England and America, and many lamp companies used it to create beautiful lamp shades."

"text": "“When you’re up to your neck in alligators, it’s hard to remember that the original aim was to drain the swamp.” — Proverb In A Nutshell The world’s wetlands are ecosystems in themselves, and are defined by the flora and fauna they support. Marshes are nutrient-rich wetlands that support a variety of reeds and grasses, while swamps are defined by their ability to support woody plants and trees. Bogs are characterized by their poor soil and high peat content, while fens have less peat and more plant life than a bog. The Whole Bushel One of the defining characteristics of a marsh is that they are consistently flooded with water from one source or another. Many marshes are freshwater, and exist in areas with poor drainage—along streambeds, lakes, and ponds. Because the soil is consistently wet from flooding, it is also extremely nutrient-rich, and can support a wide variety of plant and animal life. Marshes may also be tidal; saltwater marshes can be found along the oceans, and are saturated every time the tide comes in. While some marshes are also fed by groundwater, all receive most of their soil saturation from surface water like tides and rains. Some marshes, such as those that form when potholes and large depressions in the earth catch melting snow, can be temporary."

The history of paleontology in the United States refers to the developments and discoveries regarding fossils found within or by people from the United States of America. Local paleontology began informally with Native Americans, who have been familiar with fossils for thousands of years. They both told myths about them and applied them to practical purposes. African slaves also contributed their knowledge; the first reasonably accurate recorded identification of vertebrate fossils in the new world was made by slaves on a South Carolina plantation who recognized the elephant affinities of mammoth molars uncovered there in 1725. The first major fossil discovery to attract the attention of formally trained scientists were the Ice Age fossils of Kentucky's Big Bone Lick. These fossils were studied by eminent intellectuals like France's George Cuvier and local statesmen and frontiersman like Daniel Boone, Benjamin Franklin, William Henry Harrison, Thomas Jefferson, and George Washington. By the end of the 18th century possible dinosaur fossils had already been found. By the beginning of the 19th, their fossil footprints definitely had. Later in the century as more dinosaur fossils were uncovered eminent paleontologists Edward Drinker Cope and Othniel Charles Marsh were embroiled in a bitter rivalry to collect the most fossils and name the most new prehistoric species."

They assist pathologists in preparing bodies and organ specimens for examination, while also maintaining the morgue room, supplies and equipment. They work in hospitals, mortuaries, funeral homes and county coroner offices. Those who are seriously considering a career as a morgue attendant should have sound minds, strong stomachs, and the desire to maintain a patient's dignity, even in death. Essential Tasks Prior to an examination of a body, you must lay out all surgical instruments and lab supplies, and ensure that they are in good working order. This includes sharpening knives and scalpels when necessary. You may use a portable hoist to place the body on the examining table or in a refrigeration unit. During the exam, you assist the pathologist and record any identifying information for the patient's morgue file. Afterward, you must thoroughly clean all instruments and trays, replace dirty linens, and wash the table.

However, this is not the issue. The issue is that someone else sat there and knew he was dying. Just because someone is a drug addict gives them no excuse to watch someone else die. Just because her brother was a drug addict does not mean that his death is less important than someone else. The same thing happened to my brother and there were two people in his presence who ‘watched him die’. I think these people should be prosecuted because they have a responsibility to human life, whether they are junkies or not."

During middle school and high school, good students are often rewarded by having their names placed on an honor roll or are awarded certificates of honor. When students reach college age they find that the honor roll no longer exists but there is a similar system in place: the Dean's list. What is the dean's list? In college, the Dean's list performs the same function as the honor roll in that it recognizes a student for his or her outstanding academic achievement. What the Dean's List Is The Dean's list is most commonly used in North American post-secondary schools, though some colleges in Europe and Australia use the term as well. It is a method of recognizing good students for their hard work and good grades. Students who achieve above a certain GPA for the semester are awarded the honor of having their name placed on the list. The GPA cut-off varies by school but, generally, on a 4.0 GPA scale, the cut-off is at 3.5 or higher."

Santos, a Juarez surgeon and kidney specialist, earned a medical reputation years ago in Juarez for treating injured bullfighters. He gained national attention when the man called Sheppard suddenly died in his Juarez clinic at 2:50 a.m. Friday. Sheppard, alias actor Steve Mc Queen, went to Santos’ Clinca de Santa Rosa looking for reprieve from the painful cancer that was killing him. Mc Queen spent time in El Paso in 1972 during the filming here of “The Getaway. ”Santos said Mc Queen checked into the clinic at about 5 p.m. Wednesday after he had signed an agreement for an operation. Santos and an assistant, Dr. Guillermo Bermudez, operated on Mc Queen Thursday to remove advanced cancerous tumors of the neck and stomach. The operation was performed from 8 to 11 a.m. Thursday.

ARIANA CUBILLOS/APStorm leaves 90 dead in Haiti BY DANIEL MOREL AND ELAINE DE [email protected] PORT-AU-PRINCE Tropical Storm Jeanne's rains triggered raging floods in Haiti over the weekend, killing at least 90 people, authorities said Sunday -- making it the largest loss of life from one storm in a single country so far in a particularly vicious hurricane season. Dozens were missing and feared dead, and the casualty count was expected to rise. Most reports had at least 28 dead in Gonaives, a major port city and historic landmark where Haitians declared independence from France in 1804. But at least 10 casualties also were reported elsewhere, mostly in northwest Haiti. One radio journalist in Haiti reported late Sunday that at least 200 people had been swept away by swollen rivers. The report could not be independently verified. Catholic humanitarian agency workers picked up 62 bodies and counted another 18 at a morgue in Gonaives, the Rev. Venel Suffrard, director of the Vatican-based Caritas International chapter in that town, told The Associated Press. The massive flooding suddenly overshadowed the high death and colossal damage left by Hurricane Ivan in its painful passage through the Caribbean, Cuba and the United States. A World Health Organization worker, Pierre Adam, said he toured parts of downtown Gonaives and saw people pushing wooden carts filled with bodies. ''"

"text": "\"Jason Voorhees Jason Voorhees is a serial killer from the Friday the 13th Franchise. Jason first appeared in Sean S. Cunningham's Friday the 13th as a minor character but has since made his way through 10 sequels and a remake. More notably being played by Kane Hodder in 4 of the sequels, Kane has helped to promote Jason and make him an Icon. Sporting a Hockey Mask and notably a Machete, Jason has become one of the most iconic and popular slashers in movie history alongside Freddy Krueger, Michael Myers and Leatherface. Contents [ show]Biography Edit Early life Edit Born in the small town of Crystal Lake on the 13th of June, 1946 to Elias [1] and Pamela Voorhees, Jason was afflicted with severe facial deformities, had an abnormally small brain [2] and large heart [1] and as such, was mentally disabled. Raising Jason on her own, Pamela kept the boy isolated from the community, not letting him attend school [3] and presumably educating him (or at least attempting to) in their home on the outskirts of Crystal Lake. In the summer of 1957, Pamela, unable (or possibly unwilling) to get a babysitter for Jason, resorted to bringing him to Camp Crystal Lake, where she worked as a cook. Jason as a child Bullied relentlessly by the campers due to his handicaps, Jason, trying to escape his tormentors, fell off a dock and into the lake, where he drowned due to the counselors who were supposed to be supervising the children being too preoccupied with having sex in the woods. Though Jason's body was never found, the camp briefly closed as a result, but reopened the next summer, only to be closed again when Pamela, mad with grief, murdered Barry and Claudette, the counselors she blamed for Jason's drowning. Pamela was never suspected of the murders and all subsequent attempts to open the camp ended in failure, presumably due to sabotage on Pamela's part, resulting in the camp being nicknamed \"\"Camp Blood\"\" by the locals, who came to believe the area was cursed.

With doors locked to prevent theft and insufficient fire escapes, many of the workers jumped to their deaths from the upper floors of the building, rather than risk being burned alive. The fire shocked the entire nation, changed safety rules forever – and left a haunting in its wake. The Asch Building in Manhattan, 1911The Asch building, on the corner of Greene Street and Washington Place, was a rather nondescript ten-story building. The owners, Max Blanck and Isaac Harris, rented or subcontracted out the lower seven floors of the building to various other similar enterprises. They saved the eighth, ninth and tenth floors for the Triangle Shirtwaist Company factory, which they operated to make ladies blouses, then known as shirtwaists. Employees of the Triangle Shirtwaist Company were not allowed to leave the building by the main doors. At the end of the work day they were required to go to the rear exit door, which was kept locked during the hours of operation for fear of theft. Here, the employees were routinely searched before leaving, lest they try to steal something. Since the young ladies who worked in the sweatshop only knew this one exit to get out in the event of a fire, terrible things occurred on these rear stairs."

Vincent Price returns as a 16th century magistrate who amuses himself with petty cruelties while seeking witches to torture and burn. His rakehell sons contribute by terrorizing the villagers and ravaging serving girls at the inn. His daughter (Hilary Dwyer, returned from Witchfinder) has a beau suspected of witchcraft because of his gentle ways with animals. Nary a scene goes by without some poor actress having her top ripped off or yet another bit of unconvincing bloodshed. Hence a dullness sets in, as it is impossible to tell whether the actors are bad or just defeated by a relentlessly bad story."

You can attend a hospital based program (and earn a certificate), a 2 year college program (AS degree), and even a 4 year college program (BS degree). The hospital based programs are the least expensive, and honestly, I think the education received there is superior.

Coca-Cola’s inventor served as an officer in the Civil War, and an injury eventually led to the creation of the carbonated drink. Pemberton served in the Confederate army for almost the entire span of the Civil War, according to Richard Gardiner, whose article on Pemberton was published in the Journal of the Muscogee Genealogical Society. During a battle involving a sword fight on horseback with Union cavalry, Pemberton was shot and slashed by a saber. Before the war, Pemberton had served as a chemist and druggist, so he had access to morphine and became dependent upon it to ease his pain after the war. 2. Pemberton turned to cocaine as a substitute for morphine. The Georgia man began to experiment with opium-free medicine, as he knew his morphine addiction was dangerous."

Throughout this period, opium’s effects were considered magical or mystical.

"text": "\"How is Heroin Made? How is heroin made? Heroin is made in several different ways but they all come back to a single base substance which is morphine. Morphine comes from Opium, the resinous substance found inside the fruit of the opium poppy. Once the opium is harvested, its three main alkaloids (alkaloids are basically a biochemical found in plants) are separated into:1. Morphine 2. Codeine 3. Thebaine How is heroin made? Morphine and codeine are the only two alkaloids which can be converted into heroin. Thebaine is the base for bupenephrine which is a very strong narcotic pharmacologically and is mostly used in the treatment of opiate/opiod addiction."

It's often given in an extended-release formula for patients who will need to be on pain medications for long periods of time. Patients are warned not to break, chew, crush or dissolve extended-release tablets because the rush of oxycodone into the system could cause serious health problems, including overdose and death. Though highly addictive, oxycodone is not thought to be as frequently abused as hydrocodone. Oxy Contin, Percocet, Percodan and Tylox are some trade-name oxycodone products.

Whenever Big Pharma unfurls its latest “blockbuster” drug, I am carried back to the era when the biggest wonder drug on the market was cocaine. Yes, cocaine!In the early 1880s, pharmaceutical houses touted it as a cure for everything from morphine addiction and depression to dyspepsia and fatigue. It was widely available in tonics, powders, wines and soft drinks before its mass consumption created a cadre of raging addicts demanding medical attention. One of cocaine’s leading medical advocates was a struggling Viennese neurologist named Sigmund Freud. He began studying cocaine’s effects in 1884, and his clinical notebooks amply demonstrate that his favorite experimental subject was himself. The evolution of the once 'wonder drug'Initially, Sigmund was eager to employ cocaine as an antidote for his best friend’s morphine addiction.

Most illegal supplies reaching this country originate in Afghanistan and south-east Asia, particularly northern Thailand and Burma. Heroin is one of the most addictive substances known. Codeine, pethidine, morphine and oxycodone are all derived from heroin and can be abused if taken regularly or excessively. These substances are collectively called narcotics. Codeine and oxycodone are found in low doses in many readily available pain-killers, diarrhea medications and cough mixtures.

The natural state of the morphine once had medical practitioners believing that the drug was not addictive but it was later found that morphine, like other narcotics, was a highly addictive substance with wide potential for abuse . Today, the drug is a class II narcotic that is very heavily monitored by the DEA to help reduce cases of morphine abuse. Side Effects of Morphine According to the US National Library of Medicine, various side effects can develop with morphine use and in some cases, the effects may be moderate to severe. In the event that you suffer from severe side effects such as an inability to breath, extreme nausea or vomiting or other similar reactions to morphine you should consult emergency medical care immediately as there is a risk of narcotics overdose or you may be having an allergic reaction to the drug. The most common side effects of morphine are: Dizziness and nausea are common morphine side effects. Dizziness, lightheadedness or lack of coordination Nausea, vomiting and diarrhea Dry mouth, sweating and dehydration Mood swings, agitation and anxiety Confusion and weakness Many other side effects may occur.

It is an alkaloid obtained from the seed pods of the poppy plant Papaver somniferum. Morphine belongs to the class of drugs known as narcotic analgesics which acts by blocking the transmission of pain signals to the central nervous system (CNS) of the brain. The drug was first approved by Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1941. The drug is available under generic name Morphine and marketed under various brand names including AVINza, Kadian, Morphabond, Oramorph, Roxanol, Sevredol, Filnarine, Morphgesic,MST Continus, MXL, Zomorph etc. Morphine plays a key role in the treatment of severe pain.

Intravenous or oral doses of maternal morphine in the immediate postpartum period result in higher milk levels than with epidural morphine. Labor pain medication may delay the onset of lactation. Maternal use of oral narcotics during breastfeeding can cause infant drowsiness, central nervous system depression and even death, although low-dose morphine might be preferred over other opiates. [ 1] Newborn infants seem to be particularly sensitive to the effects of even small dosages of narcotic analgesics. Once the mother's milk comes in, it is best to provide pain control with a nonnarcotic analgesic and limit maternal intake of morphine to a few days at a low dosage with close infant monitoring. If the baby shows signs of increased sleepiness (more than usual), difficulty breastfeeding, breathing difficulties, or limpness, a physician should be contacted immediately. Drug Levels Morphine is metabolized to inactive morphine-3-glucuronide (60%) and to active morphine-6-glucuronide (10%). Morphine has an oral bioavailability of about 30% in adults. Morphine-6-glucuronide has an oral bioavailability of about 4%, [2] but is probably converted back to morphine in the infant's gut and absorbed as morphine."

"text": "Signs and Symptoms of Morphine Abuse Morphine is the classic opiate painkiller, the standard by which other opiates are measured. While other opiates are more often the drug of choice of opiate addicts, morphine in pill or liquid form is still sought to satisfy cravings. When a person is either abusing morphine or even taking it properly, they are likely to be constipated. All opiates tend to slow down the ability of the body to eliminate solid wastes so some people on painkillers seek medications that will help them fight constipation. Opiates tend to make a person nauseated and they may vomit after taking the drug. Opiates slow breathing, which is what usually kills a person who has taken too much of the drug. A person on these drugs tends to be sleepy and they may dope off. There are certain symptoms that mean that a person may have taken too much morphine. These include: Shallow breathing - it may feel like the person’s chest is barely moving and there may be few breaths each minute Feeling faint or dizzy Confusion Low blood pressure, especially when a person is also taking other medications that cause a drop in blood pressure Constricted pupils Loss of normal muscle tension Cardiac arrest Cold and clammy skin Circulatory collapse Coma Morphine: What to Look For If a person is abusing morphine, in addition to physical symptoms of abuse, you may find pill bottles or pills or syringes. Morphine also comes in a liquid form so you may find small bottles of morphine sulfate liquid."

C. -- While patients hospitalized for a heart attack have long been treated with morphine to relieve chest pain, a new analysis by researchers from the Duke Clinical Research Institute has shown that these patients have almost a 50 percent higher risk of dying. The researchers call for a randomized clinical trial to confirm their analysis. Meanwhile, they advise cardiologists to begin treatment with sufficient doses of nitroglycerin to relive pain before resorting to morphine. In their analysis of the clinical data and outcomes of more than 57,000 high-risk heart attack patients -- 29.8 percent of whom received morphine within the first 24 hours of hospitalization -- the researchers found that those who received morphine had a 6.8 percent death rate, compared to 3.8 percent for those receiving nitroglycerin. The increase in mortality persisted even after adjustment for the patients' baseline clinical risk. \"\" The results of this analysis raise serious concerns about the safety of the routine use of morphine in this group of heart patients,\"\" said Duke cardiologist Trip Meine, M. D., who presented the results of the Duke analysis Nov. 10, 2004, at the American Heart Association's (AHA) annual scientific sessions in New Orleans. \"\" Since randomized clinical trials evaluating the safety or effectiveness of morphine for these patients have not been conducted, official guidelines for its use are based solely on expert conjecture,\"\" Meine continued. \"\" Given the adverse outcomes associated with morphine use found in our analysis, a randomized clinical trial is in order. \"\" Morphine was first used to relieve the chest pain associated with heart attacks in 1912 and has been used regularly ever since. Nitroglycerin has been used for more than 130 years for the relief of chest pain, also known as unstable angina."

Albert Paglialunga/Phototake Though cancer has been known since antiquity, some of the most significant advances in scientists’ understanding of it have been made since the middle of the 20th century. Those advances led to major improvements in cancer treatment, mainly through the development of methods for timely and accurate diagnosis, selective surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapeutic drugs, and targeted therapies (agents designed against specific molecules involved in cancer). Advances in treatment have succeeded in bringing about a decrease in cancer deaths, though mainly in developed countries. Indeed, cancer remains a major cause of sickness and death throughout the world. By 2012 the number of new cases diagnosed annually had risen to more than 14 million, more than half of them in less-developed countries, and by 2015 the number of deaths from cancer had reached 8.8 million worldwide. About 70 percent of cancer deaths were in low- and middle-income countries. The World Health Organization (WHO) has estimated that the global cancer burden could be reduced by as much as 30 to 50 percent through prevention strategies, particularly through the avoidance of known risk factors. In addition, laboratory investigations aimed at understanding the causes and mechanisms of cancer have maintained optimism that the disease can be controlled."

The condition typically begins in the walls of the heart's lower chambers (ventricles), and in more severe cases also affects the walls of the upper chambers (atria). The actual muscle cells as well as the surrounding tissues of the heart become damaged. Eventually, the weakened heart loses the ability to pump blood effectively and heart failure or irregular heartbeats (arrhythmias or dysrhythmia) may occur. Cardiomyopathy is classified as either \"\"ischemic\"\" or \"\"nonischemic\"\". All cases related to children and teenagers are considered \"\"nonischemic\"\" cardiomyopathy. Non-ischemic cardiomyopathy predominately involves the heart's abnormal structure and function. It does not involve the hardening of arteries on the heart surface typically associated with ischemic cardiomyopathy. Nonischemic cardiomyopathy can then be broken down into: 1) \"\"primary cardiomyopathy\"\" where the heart is predominately affected and the cause may be due to infectious agents or genetic disorders and 2) \"\"secondary cardiomyopathy\"\" where the heart is affected due to complications from another disease affecting the body (i.e. HIV, cancer, muscular dystrophy or cystic fibrosis).

All at once, the insect thorax serves as housing for muscles, the mechanism of walking and flight, and, in some cases, serves as the stage on which an insect presents itself, as in the case of the actually harmless Death’s Head hawkmoth ( Acherontia atropos ) seen above with the characteristically skull-shaped pattern on its thorax. What is the Thorax? The thorax is the second of three major tagma, or segments that make up an insect’s body. The thorax of an insect is where all appendages for locomotion are, including legs and wings. The thorax consists of three segments, known as the prothorax, the mesothorax, and the metathorax, in that order. Each thoracic segment bears one pair of legs. If the insect is capable of flight, the meso- and metathorax bear the wings; collectively, the wing-bearing segments of insects are called the pteryothoracic segments. The prothorax, which is the very first segment of the thorax, comes after the head, and the cervix, a neck-like membranous region that helps connect muscles from the head to the thorax. The job of the prothorax is usually to serve as a place of attachment for the first pair of legs, although in some insect orders, such as Orthoptera (Grasshoppers), Coleoptera (Beetles), and Blattodea (Cockroaches), the prothorax can also serve as a hard plate, that protects the pteryothoracic segments."

Bandage and splint braces were used in 500 AD in an effort to correct scoliosis (a spine with a sideways curve). Recently, braces have become a popular way to actually help prevent primary and secondary lower back pain from ever occurring."

Bruce Lee was born in the hour of the dragon, between 6-8 a.m., in the Year of the Dragon according to the Chinese zodiac calendar, November 27, 1940 at the Chinese Hospital in San Francisco’s Chinatown in the United States. Bruce Lee birthplace was San Francisco, California although he was raised in Hong Kong. Lee's Hong Kong and Hollywood-produced films elevated the traditional Hong Kong martial arts film to a new level of popularity and acclaim, and sparked the first major surge of interest in Chinese martial arts in the West. The direction and tone of Lee's films changed and influenced martial arts and martial arts films in Hong Kong and the rest of the world as well. Lee became an iconic figure particularly to the Chinese, as he portrayed Chinese national pride and Chinese nationalism in his movies. Many see Lee as a model blueprint for acquiring a strong and efficient body and the highest possible level of physical fitness, as well as developing a mastery of martial arts and hand to hand combat skills. Bruce Lee's Education At age 12, Lee entered La Salle College and later he attended St. Francis Xavier's College. In 1959, at the age of 18, Lee got into a fight and badly beat his opponent, getting into trouble with the police."

"text": "Drug Description Find Lowest Prices on HALDOL ® ( haloperidol) Injection (For Immediate Release)WARNINGIncreased Mortality in Elderly Patients with Dementia-Related Psychosis Elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis treated with antipsychotic drugs are at an increased risk of death. Analyses of seventeen placebo-controlled trials (modal duration of 10 weeks), largely in patients taking atypical antipsychotic drugs, revealed a risk of death in drug-treated patients of between 1.6 to 1.7 times the risk of death in placebo-treated patients. Over the course of a typical 10-week controlled trial, the rate of death in drug-treated patients was about 4.5%, compared to a rate of about 2.6% in the placebo group. Although the causes of death were varied, most of the deaths appeared to be either cardiovascular (e.g., heart failure, sudden death) or infectious (e.g., pneumonia) in nature. Observational studies suggest that, similar to atypical antipsychotic drugs, treatment with conventional antipsychotic drugs may increase mortality. The extent to which the findings of increased mortality in observational studies may be attributed to the antipsychotic drug as opposed to some characteristic (s) of the patients is not clear. HALDOL Injection is not approved for the treatment of patients with dementia-related psychosis (see WARNINGS ). DESCRIPTIONHaloperidol is the first of the butyrophenone series of major antipsychotics. The chemical designation is 4- [4- (p-chlorophenyl)-4-hydroxypiperidino]-4’-fluorobutyrophenone and it has the following structural formula: HALDOL (haloperidol) is available as a sterile parenteral form for intramuscular injection.

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

Anthrax Definition Anthrax is an infection caused by the bacterium Bacillus anthracis that primarily affects livestockbut that can occasionally spread to humans, affecting either the skin, intestines, or lungs. In humans, the infection can often be treated, but it is almost always fatal in animals. Description Anthrax is most often found in the agricultural areas of South and Central America, southern andeastern Europe, Asia, Africa, the Caribbean, and the Middle East. In the United States, anthrax is rarely reported; however, cases of animal infection with anthrax are most often reported in Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Oklahoma, and South Dakota. The bacterium and its associateddisease get their name from the Greek word meaning \"\"coal\"\" because of the characteristic coal-black sore that is the hallmark of the most common form of the disease. During the 1800s, in England and Germany, anthrax was known either as \"\"wool-sorter's\"\" or \"\"ragpicker's\"\" disease because workers contracted the disease from bacterial spores present on hides and in wool or fabric fibers. Spores are the small, thick-walled dormant stage of somebacteria that enable them to survive for long periods of time under adverse conditions. The firstanthrax vaccine was perfected in 1881 by Louis Pasteur. The largest outbreak ever recorded in the United States occurred in 1957 when nine employees of a goat hair processing plant became ill after handling a contaminated shipment from Pakistan."

Reduced fetal movements may be noted in utero. At birth or in the first few months of life, patients may have severe hypotonia, weakness, feeding difficulty, and respiratory insufficiency. Contractures are common. External ophthalmoplegia may occur late but is rare. Most infants eventually sit unsupported, but standing and walking with support is achieved in only about 25%. Weakness is static or minimally progressive, but death often occurs after 10-30 years due to respiratory failure. Complications are related to respiratory compromise, feeding difficulty, scoliosis, and (in approximately one third) cardiac abnormalities,A sensory motor demyelinating neuropathy is present in many patients, but it may not be clinically relevant. CNS manifestations may be present. Mild mental retardation or perceptual-motor difficulties are observed in a few cases."

"text": "Heart Health Heart Disease Palpitations & Arrhythmias What You Should Know About Normal Sinus Rhythm By Richard N. Fogoros, MD, a board-certified physician Updated February 18, 2018Share Pin Email Print Ed Reschke/Getty Images Normal sinus rhythm (NSR) is another name for the normal heart rhythm. The Normal Heart Rhythm The heartbeat is controlled by regular electric signals (also called an electrical impulse), which spontaneously arise in a structure called the sinus node, and which then spread across the heart (first across the atria, then across the ventricles). This orderly spread of the electrical impulse assures that the various portions of the heart contract in an orderly, sequential way. It assures that the atria beat first (thus ejection their load of blood into the ventricles), and only then do the ventricles contract, ejecting blood into the lungs (right ventricle) or the rest of the body (left ventricle).“Sinus rhythm” means that the heart’s electrical impulse is being generated in the sinus node, as nature intended. “ Normal sinus rhythm” indicates that not only is sinus rhythm present, but also the rate of “firing” in the sinus node is normal—not too slow, and not too fast. Typically, normal sinus rhythm is defined as a sinus rhythm whose rate is between 60 and 99 beats per minute. Variants of Normal Sinus Rhythm Sinus rhythm may be slow, which is called sinus bradycardia. ( Bradycardia is the name given to a slow heart rate.) Sinus bradycardia is not necessarily abnormal. During sleep, most people have heart rates that dip well below 60 beats per minute, and trained athletes often can have resting heart rates in the 40s."

"text": "Cardiomyopathy (heart disease) in cats Cardiomyopathy is the name given to any disease affecting the heart muscle itself. This is the most common form of heart disease seen in cats, and the most common cause of heart failure. Disease of the heart valves (causing 'leaky' valves which prevent the heart functioning normally) are an important and common cause of heart disease in humans and in dogs, but this is rarely seen in cats. Cardiomyopathies (disease of the heart muscle) are described according to the effect they have on the structure and function of the cardiac (heart) muscle. The main classification is to divide the disease into: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) – this is the most common form of heart disease in cats and occurs where there is an increase in the thickness of the muscular wall of the heart. This reduces the volume of blood within the heart and also prevents the heart muscle relaxing properly between contractions. Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) – this is where the muscular wall of the heart generally becomes thinner than usual, the heart enlarges, and the heart muscle cannot contract effectively. Restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) – here primarily there is fibrosis of the wall of the heart, making it stiff and inelastic, so preventing the heart chambers filling normally. Intermediate cardiomyopathy (ICM) – these cases have changes consistent with more than one type of disease – for example a mixture of both hypertrophy and dilatation present. > Causes> Signs> Diagnosis> Treatment Underlying causes Although in the majority of cases of heart disease in cats the underlying cause is unknown, there are various potential recognised causes, and your vet may need to investigate some of these."

"text": "\"Print Overview An implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) — a pager-sized device — is placed in your chest to reduce your risk of dying if the lower chambers of your heart (ventricles) go into a dangerous rhythm and stop beating effectively (cardiac arrest). You might need an ICD if you have a dangerously fast heartbeat (ventricular tachycardia) or a chaotic heartbeat that keeps your heart from supplying enough blood to the rest of your body (ventricular fibrillation). ICDs detect and stop abnormal heartbeats (arrhythmias). The device continuously monitors your heartbeat and delivers electrical pulses to restore a normal heart rhythm when necessary. An ICD differs from a pacemaker — another implantable device used to help control abnormal heart rhythms. Why it's done You've likely seen TV shows in which hospital workers \"\"shock\"\" an unconscious person out of cardiac arrest with electrified paddles. An ICD does the same thing only internally and automatically when it detects an abnormal heart rhythm. An ICD is surgically placed under your skin, usually below your left collarbone. One or more flexible, insulated wires (leads) run from the ICD through your veins to your heart. Because the ICD constantly monitors for abnormal heart rhythms and instantly tries to correct them, it helps treat cardiac arrest, even when you are far from the nearest hospital."

[ 2] A heart rate that is too fast – above 100 beats per minute in adults – is called tachycardia and a heart rate that is too slow – below 60 beats per minute – is called bradycardia. [ 2] Many types of arrhythmia have no symptoms. [ 1] When symptoms are present these may include palpitations or feeling a pause between heartbeats. [ 1] More seriously there may be lightheadedness, passing out, shortness of breath, or chest pain. [ 1] While most types of arrhythmia are not serious, some predispose a person to complications such as stroke or heart failure. ["

"text": "\"Print Overview An implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) — a pager-sized device — is placed in your chest to reduce your risk of dying if the lower chambers of your heart (ventricles) go into a dangerous rhythm and stop beating effectively (cardiac arrest). You might need an ICD if you have a dangerously fast heartbeat (ventricular tachycardia) or a chaotic heartbeat that keeps your heart from supplying enough blood to the rest of your body (ventricular fibrillation). ICDs detect and stop abnormal heartbeats (arrhythmias). The device continuously monitors your heartbeat and delivers electrical pulses to restore a normal heart rhythm when necessary. An ICD differs from a pacemaker — another implantable device used to help control abnormal heart rhythms. Why it's done You've likely seen TV shows in which hospital workers \"\"shock\"\" an unconscious person out of cardiac arrest with electrified paddles. An ICD does the same thing only internally and automatically when it detects an abnormal heart rhythm. An ICD is surgically placed under your skin, usually below your left collarbone. One or more flexible, insulated wires (leads) run from the ICD through your veins to your heart. Because the ICD constantly monitors for abnormal heart rhythms and instantly tries to correct them, it helps treat cardiac arrest, even when you are far from the nearest hospital."

"text": "\"Cardiac Arrhythmias Health Guide Disease Reference Medication List Encyclopedia Q & AMore What Is It? A cardiac arrhythmia is any abnormal heart rate or rhythm. In normal adults, the heart beats regularly at a rate of 60 to 100 times per minute. And the pulse (felt at the wrist, neck or elsewhere) matches the contractions of the heart's two powerful lower chambers, called the ventricles. The heart's two upper chambers, called the atria, also contract to help fill the ventricles. But this milder contraction occurs just before the ventricles contract, and it is not felt in the pulse. Under normal circumstances, the signal for a heartbeat comes from the heart's sinus node. It's the natural pacemaker located in the upper portion of the right atrium. From the sinus node, the heartbeat signal travels to the atrioventricular node or \"\"A-V node,\"\" which is located between the atria. Next the signal travels through the bundle of His (pronounced HISS)."

"text": "\"Diagnosis If you experience an episode of sudden cardiac arrest without warning and survive, your doctor will want to investigate what caused the cardiac arrest. Identifying the underlying problem may help prevent future episodes of cardiac arrest. Tests your doctor may recommend include: Electrocardiogram A test commonly given after cardiac arrest is an electrocardiogram (ECG). During an ECG, sensors (electrodes) that can detect the electrical activity of your heart are attached to your chest and sometimes to your limbs. An ECG can reveal disturbances in heart rhythm or detect abnormal electrical patterns, such as a prolonged QT interval, that increase your risk of sudden death. Blood tests A sample of your blood may be tested to check the levels of potassium, magnesium, hormones and other chemicals that may affect your heart's ability to function properly. Other blood tests can detect recent heart injury and heart attacks. Imaging tests These may include: Chest X-ray. An X-ray image of your chest allows your doctor to check the size and shape of your heart and its blood vessels. It may also indicate whether you have heart failure."

"text": "\"EMS Pharmacology Drugs that Affect the Cardiovascular System The Cardiovascular System Revisited The heart is made up of many interconnected branching fibers that form the walls of the 2 atria and 2 ventricles. Some of these fibers are capable of, and responsible for, conducting electrical impulses while other fibers are mainly responsible for muscle contraction. These specialized fibers are nourished through a vast network of blood vessels known as the coronary vasculature. Medications that affect these fibers are classified by their specific effect on the tissue. Cardiac Glycosides Cardiac glycosides are naturally occurring plant substances that have characteristic effects on the cardiac muscle. These specific compounds contain a carbohydrate molecule (sugar). When this molecule is combined with water, it is converted into a simple sugar plus 1 or more active substances. Glycosides may actually work by blocking certain ionic pumps in the cellular membrane. This action, indirectly increases the calcium concentration reaching the contractile proteins. A key cardiac glycoside is digoxin (Lanoxin); it is used to treat heart failure and to treat certain types of tachycardias."

A cardiac arrhythmia, also called heart or cardiac dysrhythmia, is a disturbance in the regular rhythm of the heartbeat. Certain types of cardiac arrhythmia are life-threatening and a medical emergency while other types are not a major concern. Some forms are commonly called heart palpitations by the general population. Although certain dietary supplements can be of benefit, others can make it worse. Those who have a cardiac arrhythmia should review the herbs listed a few paragraphs below and eliminate those that may be causing increased heart rate. Heart arrhythmia simply means that the heart rhythm is irregular -- such as missing a heart beat or perhaps each beat does not follow the proper rhythm -- or it can also mean the rhythm is too fast or too slow. Natural or alternative cardiac arrhythmia treatment Little research has been done with natural herbs or nutrients in the prevention or therapy of cardiac arrhythmia. I have evaluated some of the published research over the past few years and present the nutrients and herbs that perhaps could be helpful in prevention or treatment. I do not claim that these supplements are a natural cure since more research is needed. Make sure your fluid intake is good."

An electrophysiological study (EP study) is a test used to evaluate your heart's electrical system and to evaluate for abnormal heart rhythms. Natural electrical impulses coordinate contractions of the different parts of the heart. This helps keep blood flowing the way it should. This movement of the heart creates the heartbeat, or heart rhythm. During an EP study, your doctor inserts small, thin wire electrodes into a vein in the groin (or neck, in some cases). He or she will then thread the wire electrodes through the vein and into the heart, using a special type of X-ray “movie,” called fluoroscopy. Once in the heart, the electrodes measures the heart’s electrical signals. Electrical signals are also sent through the electrodes to stimulate the heart tissue to try to cause the abnormal heart rhythm so that it can be evaluated and its cause can be found, or to help evaluate how well a drug is working. During the EP study, specialists in heart rhythms or an electrophysiology specialist doctors may also map the spread of the heart’s electrical impulses during each beat."

"text": "Othello / Reversi Game A game of dramatic reversals... Othello History O thello, also known as Reversi, is a classic board game. Although there is no formal proof of the game's origin, two places have been suggested from its invention. One is China, from a game called 'Fan Mian', the other is from Lewis Waterman and John W. Mollett in 1888, who made this game available. In about 1970, Goro Hasegawa, a Japanese developed the modern rules of Othello, and they are now formally adopted around the world. The rules of Othello are much simpler than many other board games. However, easy to learn doesn't mean easy to play well. That comes from a good saying, 'one minute to learn, but a lifetime to master'!Each Othello checker is black on one side and white on the other. Black plays first and places a checker, black side uppermost, on any square on the board such that he 'sandwiches' at least one of his opponents pieces between the checker he has just placed and any other of his colour already on the board. Play continues alternately... First black, then white. If at any time a player does not have a legal move i.e. there is nowhere he can play that flips one of his opponent's checkers, he must pass and his opponent plays again."

The Duke hopes Othello's leadership of his Venetian forces will see the Venetian's triumphant. When Brabantio tries to have Othello punished for allegedly seducing his daughter Desdemona with witchcraft, the Duke displays his wisdom, learning the truth by allowing Brabantio, Othello and Desdemona to tell their sides of the story.

Brabantio: Desdemona's father and a senator in Venice, he is initially outraged in Act I, Scene I when Iago and Roderigo unfairly report that his fair daughter has been seduced by Othello who must have been using \"\"magic\"\" to persuade her to be intimate with him. In Act I, Scene III, Brabantio tries to petition the Duke to punish Othello, but this fails when it is learned that Desdemona fell in love with Othello by her own free will. Told by the Duke to accept Othello and Desdemona's marriage, Brabantio resists, never liking Othello despite his reputation as a soldier, which is how Othello is readily accepted and respected by the Duke and others...

Cohen Updated February 07, 2018The Nintendo Corporation's domination of the gaming industry didn't start with the Super Mario Bros game or their first video game console. As a matter of fact they had already established themselves as a quality game company almost 70 years before the first video game was invented. Not only did Nintendo bring back the popularity of video games after the industry crash of 1983, but they first established themselves in the 19th century when they brought back the popularity of card games to Japan. The Nintendo History When Japan cut off its relations with the Western World in 1633 there was a ban put on all foreign playing cards as they encouraged illegal gambling. Playing cards were extremely popular at the time (mainly because of the gambling) so it wasn't long before the Japanese started creating their own home grown card games. The first of these were designed for a game called Unsun Karuta, but eventually the game started also being used for a form of gambling, so the government put a ban on them as well. A volley of new card games, followed by a subsequent government bans went back and forth over the next century. Finally in the 19th century a new card game, Hanafuda, was invented which used images instead of numbers, making it difficult for gambling. The government relaxed its laws on playing cards allowing the Hanafuda cards to be sold. Unfortunately the constant banning of card games and the lack of use for gambling took its toll and the new card game received a lackluster response, until a young entrepreneur, Fusajiro Yamauchi, came on the scene."

"title": "http://www.literarydevices.com/antagonist/\nAntagonist",
"text": "Definition of Antagonist In literature, an antagonist is a character, group of characters, or other force that presents an obstacle or is in direct conflict with the protagonist. The antagonist is most often one character who has a goal that opposes the protagonist’s goal and will try to stop the protagonist from getting what he or she wants. The word “antagonist” comes from the Greek for “a competitor, rival, or opponent.” In Greek, the parts of the words are “anti-,” which means “against” and “agonizesthai,” which means “to contend for a prize. ”Difference Between Antagonist and Villain The definition of antagonist states that this character or characters works in opposition to the protagonist. This does not mean, however, that the antagonist is necessarily a villain or that the antagonist’s motives are inherently evil. For example, the protagonist of a story might be a person wrongly accused of a crime who is on the run; the chief of police acts as an antagonist in the story not because he is a “bad guy,” but because his goal is the opposite of the protagonist’s goal, and he will present obstacles to the protagonist. A villain, on the other hand, is a character who has evil intentions. While not every antagonist is a villain, it is generally true that all villains are antagonists to the main character. Common Examples of Antagonist We are all familiar with examples of antagonists in our own lives—an antagonist is any person who stops us from getting what we want."

The plot is also sometimes referred to as the storyline. Aristotle posited that plots must have a beginning, middle, and end, and that each event in the plot causes the next event to happen. Common Examples of Plot Every story we tell contains an element of plot. “ I got sick yesterday afternoon” is a fact, not a story. However, “Mick Jagger and I had shellfish for lunch yesterday—I must have been allergic to one or the other—and so I got sick yesterday afternoon” is an intriguing story indeed. The listener is interested in the causal relationship between the lunch and why the narrator got sick. Plot is moved forward by the linking word or concept of “so. ”Plot is an important part of everything from advertising and political campaigns to the realms of business and sports. One of the most common plots is called the “Cinderella Story,” also known as a rags-to-riches story."

"text": "Pathological Jealousy: Its Symptoms and Definition24October2012Mario R. Psychology Disorders, Jealousy, Morbid Jealousy, Othello Syndrome, Pathological Jealousy, Psychology, Relationships Jealousy is a complicated and common emotion experienced by humans which varies in forms and multitudes across relationships and cultures. It is defined as a “feeling resentment against someone because of that person’s rivalry, success, or advantages.” i The definition indicates that the perception of a rival is essential for the emotion to exist; without taking into consideration if the rival actually exists. It is an emotion that could rise in families, in the workplace, in friendships, and in romantic relationships. The most common interpretation of this feeling from the lens of evolutionary psychologists comes from “The Specific Innate Module Theory”. According to this theory, jealousy is an innate emotion which is guided by a specific set of neurons in response to perceived threats in the context of sexual relationships. On one hand, the theory suggests that jealousy in men is an innate predisposition guided towards their partner’s sexual infidelity; and on the other hand, the theory proposes that the feeling of jealousy in women is innately predisposed towards their partner’s emotional infidelity i i. The feeling of jealousy is often confused with envy; which is defined as “a painful or resentful awareness of an advantage enjoyed by another joined with a desire to possess the same advantage” i i i. Envy differs from jealousy in the sense that the former emotion is experienced when an individual wants something that another individual has; while the latter is an intense emotion expressed when an individual fears that something or someone might be taken away from that individual himself/herself. Healthy people experience jealously in response to firm evidence, are willing to adjust their views and reactions upon obtaining new evidence, and perceive a single rival. However, under certain circumstances, jealousy could turn to become delusional and dangerous; particularly in romantic relationships. Pathological jealousy; also known as morbid jealousy, delusional jealousy, or Othello’s Syndrome (which was suggested from Shakespeare’s play “Othello” iv ), is an abnormal form of jealousy which often presents itself in the form of an OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) and arises in romantic relationships v. Morbidly jealous individuals construct decisive evidence of disloyalty from irrelevant incidents, refuse to change their views even when confronted with contradicting information, and are inclined to accuse their partner of unfaithfulness with many other individuals vi."

"text": "\"Biology 2021998 Second Web Reports On Serendip Chemicals That Fix the Brain Rupa Hiremath The discovery of how the brain heals itself began, as discoveries often do, with a question: Why do children who suffer brain damage often recover fully, while adults with the same kind of damage are permanently incapacitated? University of Wisconsin neurobiologist Ronald Kalil was among those who pursued the question (15). His studies in young cats showed that entire networks of brain cells could be routed around damaged areas. Young animals whose primary vision centers were destroyed could still learn to see normally, he found, because cells in another part of their brains took up the job of processing vision. Yet, adult animals suffering the same destruction had no such luck (7). What was the difference? Kalil finally determined that young animal brains are awash in chemicals called growth factors, while adult brains have far lower levels (11). He surmised that the abundance of growth factors helps the new brains organize themselves. When damage occurs, the growth factors simply start over and rebuild damaged networks. Adults have fewer growth factors because their brains, although they constantly undergo changes, are, for the most part, completed."

Disorder Similar to Parkinson's but With Key Differences By Mary Kugler, RNUpdated February 13, 2018Share Pin Email Print Susan Chiang / Getty Images When British actor and comedian Dudley Moore died on March 27, 2002, the official cause of death was listed as pneumonia. But, in truth, Moore had been battling a rare condition known progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) which causes the gradual deterioration of parts of the brain that regulate balance, muscle control, cognitive function, and certain voluntary and involuntary movements such as swallowing and eye movement. Causes of Progressive Supranuclear Palsy While the cause of progressive supranuclear palsy is largely unknown, it thought to be associated with a mutation on a specific part of a gene known as chromosome 17. Unfortunately, it's not all that uncommon a mutation. While nearly every person with PSP has this genetic anomaly so, too, do two-thirds of the general population. As such, the mutation is seen to be a contributing rather than sole factor for the disorder. Environmental toxins and other genetic issues may also play a part. Scientists are also not yet entirely sure to what extent PSP is associated with Parkinson's or Alzheimer's disease with which it shares certain characteristic symptoms. PSP is estimated to affect one of every 100,000 people irrespective of race, geography, or occupation."

"text": "So What's the Difference Between ALS and Parkinson's Disease? Beth Greenfield August 15, 2014Clockwise from top left: Robin Williams had been diagnosed with Parkinson’s before his death; Stephen Hawking has been living with ALS for 50 years; Lou Gehrig brought ALS, now also know as Lou Gehrig’s disease, to the public’s attention; and Michael J. Fox received his Parkinson’s diagnosis in 1992. ( Photos: Getty Images)News that Robin Williams had been grappling with a diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease before ending his life has sparked increased interest in the disorder this week. And that’s coincided with a fast-rising awareness of a similar disease — amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or AL S — due to the Ice Bucket Challenge, a fundraising campaign that’s swept social media recently, prompting everyone from Ethel Kennedy to Justin Timberlake to dump freezing water over their heads in the name of research. ( And it’s worked, raising millions for the cause .) So how closely linked to Parkinson’s is ALS? Both are progressive neurodegenerative diseases, and neither has a cure. But beyond that, the differences are vast. “Both occur because some cells in the brain degenerate, and both are diseases of the motor system, meaning they affect how someone moves,” Dr. U. Shivraj Sohur, a movement disorder specialist with the Mass General Institute for Neurodegenerative Disease, told Yahoo Health. “ From there, the separation happens quickly, both from a neurology point of view and from a patient’s experience."

It mainly affects the way the brain co-ordinates the movements of the muscles in various parts of the body. Who develops Parkinson's disease (PD)? PD mainly develops in people over the age of 50. It becomes more common with increasing age. About 5 in 1,000 people in their 60s and about 40 in 1,000 people in their 80s have PD. It affects both men and women but is a little more common in men.

Tremor: Although quite common, and more prevalent with aging, tremor is not a normal consequence of growing older. There are numerous causes of tremor, and this symptom alone may not represent a neurological disease or a serious problem. Treatment, if necessary, is dependent upon the cause of the tremor. Parkinson's disease: Described first 180 years ago in 1817 by Dr. James Parkinson, a London physician, it has the attention of researchers around the world, but the cause of this neurological disease remains elusive. Parkinson's disease may produce a great variety of symptoms, but the four basic, so called 'cardinal signs' include tremor, slowness of movement, stiffness of movement, and impairment of balance. There is no test for Parkinson's disease; the diagnosis is established by listening to the symptoms and physical examination by an experienced clinician. As of yet there is no cure, but there are numerous therapies that help the symptoms. Parkinsonian syndromes: There are other neurological disorders that bear some resemblance to Parkinson's disease in the symptoms they produce, but on closer examination are distinct from Parkinson's disease on a clinical basis, as well as in the brain changes found. Examples include Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (known as PSP, also referred to as Olszewski-Steele-Richardson syndrome), Multiple System Atrophy, and Cortical Basalganglionic Degeneration."

GDNF - The Controversy Surrounding GDNF 2015 December 16The Controversy Surrounding GDNFThe existence of GDNF has been known for well over twenty years. Only in 2006, at the World Parkinson’s Congress held in Washington DC, was it first announced that GDNF is produced in the brain, by the glial cells, and that GDNF repairs the damaged brain cells. If everybody in the Parkinson’s world knew about GDNF in 2006, why do only a few people, outside of the scientific world, know anything about it yet? If the medical profession does know about GDNF then they should have jumped onto the bandwagon, in 2006, and made every effort to tell their patients about it!That has not happened, at least not in my neck of the woods. Does this mean that this vital information is not being disseminated amongst all the players in the medical world? If so, why would that be? At that World Congress, we were told that fast walking is the best way to go about producing GDNF in the brain."

More than 1 million people in North America have been diagnosed with PD, most of whom are greater than 60 years old. Parkinson disease progressively worsens over time, although the rate of worsening varies greatly from one person to another. Many people with PD who are treated may be able to live years without serious disability. A number of treatments are available that can help to manage symptoms and improve a person's quality of life. This topic review discusses the causes, symptoms, and diagnosis of Parkinson disease. Separate topic reviews are available that discuss treatment.

"text": "What Are the Treatments for Drug Induced Parkinsonism?by LIA STANNARD Aug. 14, 2017Secondary parkinsonism results from a medication or illness that causes a drop in the amount of the neurotransmitter dopamine, producing symptoms similar to Parkinson's disease, such as tremors and shuffling movements. The Parkinson's Disease Society points out that 7 percent of secondary parkinsonism cases result from specific drugs that affect dopamine, and is called drug-induced parkinsonism. Since the symptoms of drug-induced parkinsonism can debilitate patients, finding the right treatment is important to eliminate these symptoms. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Stopping the Drug If a doctor suspects that a specific drug caused the parkinsonism, she may recommend that the patient stop taking it. If a person suspects that her medication causes parkinsonism, she should not stop using that medication without discussing it with her doctor first. The Parkinson's Disease Society explains that 60 percent of people who stop taking the medication that causes the drug-induced parkinsonism recover within two months. For some patients, stopping the drug immediately is not an option. The doctor may gradually take the patient off the medication if there are possible problems from an abrupt withdrawal. If the patient cannot come off the medication, the doctor may either adjust the dosage or switch the patient to another medication that treats the same condition. Anticholinergics The Parkinson's Disease Society notes that if a drug-induced parkinsonism patient cannot stop taking the offending medication, his doctor may put him on an anticholinergic drug, a type of drug used to treat Parkinson's disease."

In humans, it is created via biosynthesis from the amino acid L-Tyrosine. It is a precursor to several important and powerful neurotransmitters which include Dopamine, Norepinephrine (Noradrenaline) and Epinephrine (Adrenaline). These are collectively known as catecholamines and they play a role in the stimulation and arousal systems in your brain. In its pure form, L-Dopa is considered to be a psychoactive chemical, and can also be used for the treatment of Parkinson’s Disease and a number of other conditions related to lowered levels of the above neurotransmitters (especially Dopamine). As a nootropic, L-Dopa is used to combat depression and anxiety while enhancing mood and improving the ability to concentrate and focus. L-Dopa is sold under the names Levodopa, Sinemet, Madopar, Stalevo, and Prolopa as well as from the herbal extract Mucuna Pruriens.

The major or mild NCD subtypes are NCD due to Alzheimer’s disease; vascular NCD; NCD with Lewy bodies; NCD due to Parkinson’s disease; frontotemporal NCD; NCD due to traumatic brain injury; NCD due to HIV infection; substance/medication-induced NCD; NCD due to Huntington’s disease; NCD due to prion disease; NCD due to another medical condition; NCD due to multiple etiologies; and unspecified NCD. The NCD category encompasses the group of disorders in which the primary clinical deficit is in cognitive function, and that are acquired rather than developmental. Although cognitive deficits are present in many if not all mental disorders (e.g., schizophrenia, bipolar disorders), only disorders whose core features are cognitive are included in the NCD category. The NCDs are those in which impaired cognition has not been present since birth or very early life, and thus represents a decline from a previously attained level of functioning. The NCDs are unique among DSM-5 categories in that these are syndromes for which the underlying pathology, and frequently the etiology as well, can potentially be determined. The various underlying disease entities have all been the subject of extensive research, clinical experience, and expert consensus on diagnostic criteria. The DSM-5 criteria for these disorders have been developed in close consultation with the expert groups for each of the disease entities and align as closely as possible with the current consensus criteria for each of them. The potential utility of biomarkers is also discussed in relation to diagnosis. Dementia is subsumed under the newly named entity major neurocognitive disorder, although the term dementia is not precluded from use in the etiological subtypes in which that term is standard."

Drug-Induced Parkinsonism Worst Pills, Best Pills Newsletter Article, October 2010One recent study found that more than 1 out of every 10 people who went to a Parkinson’s disease center had been found to have drug-induced Parkinsonism. These people were misdiagnosed as having the more common illness, Parkinson’s disease, which is irreversible and has unknown causes. Here are a few explanations and patient examples: Table 1, adapted from an article in Postgraduate Medicine in 2009, points out some of the important differences between Parkinson’s disease and drug-induced Parkinsonism. Subscribe to find out which 49 drugs are linked to drug-induced parkinsonism. In another recently published study in Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery, researchers carefully examined 1,528 people with symptoms of Parkinsonism and found that 7.9 percent (120 patients) had clear, unequivocal evidence of drug-induced Parkinsonism. To qualify for this group, the second largest in their study, (outranked only by Parkinson’s disease), the patients had to meet all of the following three criteria: Occurrence of Parkinsonism while the patients were being treated with drugs known to be potential inducers of this syndrome Absence of the symptoms of Parkinsonism before the introduction of the causative agents Clinical improvement within six months after drug withdrawal Thus, the good news is that drug-induced Parkinsonism is reversible. The bad news, however, is that too many doctors do not know about the diseases’ differences, are inadequately aware of drug-induced Parkinsonism and therefore do not get a careful history from the patient about what drugs they started before the onset."

There are three types of tachycardias: Atrial or Supraventricular Tachycardia (SVT)Atrial or Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) is a fast heart rate that starts in the upper chambers of the heart. Some forms are called paroxysmal atrial tachycardia (PAT) or paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT). How it happens Electrical signals in the heart's upper chambers fire abnormally, which interferes with electrical signals coming from the sinoatrial (SA) node --- the heart's natural pacemaker. A series of early beats in the atria speeds up the heart rate. The rapid heartbeat does not allow enough time for the heart to fill before it contracts so blood flow to the rest of the body is compromised. Who is likely to have Atrial or SVT? SVT is the most common type of arrhythmia in children More common in women, but may occur in either sex Anxious young people People who are physically fatigued People who drink large amounts of coffee (or caffeinated substances)People who drink alcohol heavily People who smoke heavily Atrial tachycardia occurs less commonly with: Heart attack Serious mitral valve disease Symptoms and Complications of Atrial or SVT Some people have no symptoms; others may feel: Fainting (syncope)Lightheadedness or dizziness Rapid heartbeat or \"\"palpitations\"\" or fluttering feeling in chest or bounding pulse Angina (chest pain), pressure or tightness Shortness of breath Fatigue/tiredness In extreme cases, atrial or SVT may cause: Unconsciousness Cardiac arrest Treatment for Atrial or SVT Many people don't need medical therapy."

"text": "Background Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (paroxysmal SVT) is an episodic condition with an abrupt onset and termination. ( See Etiology and Presentation. ) SVT in general is any tachyarrhythmia that requires atrial and/or atrioventricular (AV) nodal tissue for its initiation and maintenance. It is usually a narrow-complex tachycardia that has a regular, rapid rhythm; exceptions include atrial fibrillation (AF) and multifocal atrial tachycardia (MAT). Aberrant conduction during SVT results in a wide-complex tachycardia. ( See Etiology and Workup. ) SVT is a common clinical condition that occurs in persons of all age groups, and treatment can be challenging. Electrophysiologic studies are often needed to determine the source of the conduction abnormalities. ( See Epidemiology, Prognosis, Workup, Treatment, and Medication. ) Manifestations of SVT are quite variable; patients may be asymptomatic or they may present with minor palpitations or more severe symptoms."

"text": "Atrial fibrillation (AF) affects more than 5% of the U. S. population >65 years, and 10% of those >80 years of age, making it the most common arrhythmia requiring treatment. Efforts to treat with ablation or devices show promise, but to date, pharmacologic therapy represents the mainstay of AF treatment. The benefit of efforts to control the rhythm (as opposed to rate control with anticoagulation) is debated, and mortality benefit may be clarified by the ongoing AFFIRM trial; nevertheless, most physicians remain committed to reducing symptoms through restoration and maintenance of sinus mechanism. Generally, the agents employed to stabilize the atria are the drugs in the Vaughan Williams categories of class IA, IC and III. In this issue of the Journal, Kühlkamp et al. ( 1) present data that show beta-adrenergic blockade also acts to reduce the frequency of symptomatic AF. Pharmacologic treatment to stabilize the atria Treatment to reduce the recurrence of AF has achieved modest success thus far. Quinidine, disopyramide, flecainide, propafenone, d,l-sotalol and amiodarone have all shown efficacy in reducing AF recurrence in patients with paroxysmal and/or persistent AF (2,3). Unfortunately, these agents are associated with serious side effects, including life-threatening proarrhythmia in the class I agents and d,l-sotalol, and noncardiac (but also potentially life-threatening) complications of amiodarone. Newer class III agents, such as dofetilide and azimilide (4,5), may be associated with similar efficacy and perhaps reduced proarrhythmia, although concerns about safety remain."

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

The heart rate is usually between 160 and 200 beats per minute. This condition is also known as paroxysmalsupraventricular tachycardia. Description The term paroxysmal means that the event begins suddenly, without warning and ends abruptly. Atrial tachycardia means that the upper chambers of the heart are beating abnormally fast. Paroxysmal atrial tachycardia can occur without any heart disease being present. It is usuallymore annoying than dangerous. Causes and symptoms Paroxysmal atrial tachycardia may be caused by several different things. The fast rate may be triggered by a premature atrial beat that sends an impulse along an abnormal electrical path to the ventricles."

Are there moments when you can’t catch your breath? If so, you may have atrial fibrillation. Atrial fibrillation occurs when the atria, or upper chambers of the heart, lose their normal rhythm and beat chaotically. It’s commonly known as AF or AFib. When it happens, blood doesn’t flow through the heart and body efficiently. Inefficient flow can cause the blood to pool inside the atria, which increases the risk of blood clots. Types Types of AFib Paroxysmal AFib are episodes of AFib that occur occasionally and then stop spontaneously. Episodes can last for a few seconds or a few days before stopping and returning to normal sinus rhythm. Some people may have single episodes of AFib."

This article exemplifies the AAFP 1997–98 Annual Clinical Focus on prevention and management of cardiovascular disease Atrial fibrillation is the most common arrhythmia in patients visiting a primary care practice. Although many patients with atrial fibrillation experience relief of symptoms with control of the heart rate, some patients require restoration of sinus rhythm. External direct current (DC) cardioversion is the most effective means of converting atrial fibrillation to sinus rhythm. Pharmacologic cardioversion, although less effective, offers an alternative to DC cardioversion. Several advances have been made in antiarrhythmic medications, including the development of ibutilide, a class III antiarrhythmic drug indicated for acute cardioversion of atrial fibrillation. Other methods of pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic cardioversion remain under development. Until the results of several large-scale randomized clinical trials are available, the decision to choose cardioversion or maintenance of sinus rhythm must be individualized, based on relief of symptoms and reduction of the morbidity and mortality associated with atrial fibrillation."

"text": "\"Basic Dysrhythmias I. Arrhythmias That Are Of Sinus Origin : When depolarization originates spontaneously and rhythmically from the sinoatrial node (SA node), then the rhythm is defined as a normal sinus rhythm. In most people, the SA node rhythm is regular and averages between 60 - 100 beats per minute (bpm). If the sinus rhythm is 100 bpm or faster, then it is called a tachycardia or a tachycardic rhythm. If, however, the heart's rhythm is 60 bpm or slower, then it is called bradycardia or a bradycardic rhythm. A. Respiratory Arrhythmia : When a patient is on continuous monitoring either in the intensive care unit or on a medical-surgical floor, you will frequently see a dysrhythmia that is normal. When a person breathes, their lungs expand and will push into the mediastinal spaces compressing the heart. As the lungs compress the heart, the filling volumes are reduced because the heart is not permitted to expand as much. This will cause the ejected fraction during ventricular systole to be smaller. In order to keep the pressure in the vascular system the same, the heart has to speed up its rate in order to keep the volumes in the vasculature the same. Hence, when the lungs are fully expanded and compressing the heart, the heart rate will be driven higher."

"text": "\"Atrial Fibrillation Daniel J. Cantillon MDPublished: January 2014Contents Definition Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common heart rhythm disorder in which the electrical impulses in the upper cardiac chambers (atria) degenerate from their usual organized rhythm into a rapid chaotic pattern. This disruption results in an irregular and often rapid heartbeat that is classically described as \"\"irregularly irregular\"\" and occurs because of the unpredictable conduction of these disordered impulses across the atrioventricular (AV) node into the lower cardiac chambers (ventricles). The definition and classification has been described and updated in 2011 guidelines published by the American College of Cardiology (ACC), American Heart Association (AHA), and European Society of Cardiology (ESC), with the collaboration of the Heart Rhythm Society (HRS). 1 According to these guidelines, an episode of AF is defined as an event lasting greater than 30 seconds in duration. Paroxysmal AF refers to patients with spontaneous termination of the arrhythmia within 7 days of its onset. Most patients spontaneously going in and out of AF on their own fall into this category. Persistent AF refers to patients with sustained arrhythmia beyond 7 days. Most patients in this category require the use of a therapeutic intervention to restore normal sinus rhythm. Long-standing persistent AF refers to patients with uninterrupted AF for more than 1 year. Permanent AF refers to patients in which efforts to restore normal sinus rhythm have either failed or been forgone."

Supraventricular tachycardia refers to rapid rhythms that originate and are sustained in atrial or atrioventricular node tissue above the bundle of His. The condition is caused by reentry phenomena or automaticity at or above the atrioventricular node, and includes atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia, atrioventricular reciprocating tachycardia, and atrial tachycardia. Most persons with these tachyarrhythmias have structurally normal hearts. Sudden onset of an accelerated heart rate can cause palpitations, light-headedness, chest discomfort, anxiety, dyspnea, or fatigue. The history is important to elicit episodic symptoms because physical examination and electrocardiography findings may be normal. A Holter monitor or event recorder may be needed to confirm the diagnosis."

A single radiofrequency application terminates the tachycardia. The first 3 tracings show surface electrocardiograms, as labeled. Abl D and Abl P = distal and proximal pair of electrodes of the mapping catheter, respectively; HBED and HBEP = distal and proximal pair of electrodes in the catheter located at His bundle, respectively; HRA = high right atrial catheter; MAP = unipolar electrograms from the tip of the mapping catheter; RVA = catheter located in right ventricular apex. View Media Gallery Differentiating among these diagnoses requires electrocardiographic (ECG) analysis of the tachycardia for P wave activity. In SVT, the ECG typically has narrow QRS complexes (unless aberrant conduction with typical left or right bundle-branch block occurs or a bystander preexcitation is seen). Assessment of the relationship of the P waves to the QRS complex (R waves) can help to guide diagnosis. A short RP interval (P wave immediately following the QRS) suggests different causes of the tachycardia than does a long RP interval (interval wave preceding QRS). In short RP interval SVT, the differential diagnosis includes the following: Typical AV nodal reentrant tachycardia AV reentrant tachycardia using accessory pathways Atrial tachycardia with long first-degree AV block Atrial tachycardia originating from the os of the coronary sinus or junctional tachycardia To determine the diagnosis requires additional maneuvers, such as vagal stimulation (eg, carotid sinus massage, Valsalva maneuver), or adenosine. In long RP interval SVT, the differential diagnosis includes the following: Atypical (fast-slow) AV nodal reentrant tachycardia Permanent junctional reciprocating tachycardia (PJRT) due to a slowly conducting retrograde accessory pathway Atrial tachycardia Sinus tachycardia Sinus node reentry Atrial flutter AV reentrant tachycardia Diagnosis requires assessment of the patient condition, vagal maneuvers, adenosine, and cardioversion—namely, procedures that may not only be diagnostic but also therapeutic."

"text": "Cardiac Arrhythmias Fredrick J. Jaeger, DOPublished: August 2010Contents Definition Broadly defined, cardiac arrhythmias are any abnormality or perturbation in the normal activation sequence of the myocardium. The sinus node, displaying properties of automaticity, spontaneously depolarizes, sending a depolarization wave over the atrium, depolarizing the atrioventricular (AV) node, propagating over the His-Purkinje system, and depolarizing the ventricle in systematic fashion. There are hundreds of different types of cardiac arrhythmias. The normal rhythm of the heart, so-called normal sinus rhythm, can be disturbed through failure of automaticity, such as sick sinus syndrome, or through overactivity, such as inappropriate sinus tachycardia. Ectopic foci prematurely exciting the myocardium on a single or continuous basis results in premature atrial contractions (PACs) and premature ventricular contractions (PVCs). Sustained tachyarrhythmias in the atria, such as atrial fibrillation, paroxysmal atrial tachycardia (PAT), and supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), originate because of micro- or macro re-entry. In general, the seriousness of cardiac arrhythmias depends on the presence or absence of structural heart disease. The most common example of a relatively benign arrhythmia is atrial fibrillation (see the chapter “ Atrial Fibrillation )”. Similarly common are PACs and PVCs, which, although a nuisance, generally are benign in the absence of structural heart disease. In contrast, the presence of nonsustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) or syncope in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) or severe left ventricular (LV) dysfunction may be a harbinger of subsequent sudden cardiac death and must not be ignored."

"text": "Anxious about When Your Baby Will Drop? Here're Ways to Help The medical term “lightening” is used to describe the baby’s settlement deeper into the maternal pelvis. According to American Pregnancy Association, lightening suggests that the body of pregnant mommy is getting ready for labor; this condition can occur before few weeks to actual time of labor (even a few hours before the onset of labor in some cases). To encourage the baby dropping deeper into the pelvis, the pregnant mommy can do several things mentioned in this article. When Does a Baby Get to Drop? As every woman experience different labor, there are different times for babies to engage in pelvic cavity. When the time of delivery comes near, the baby begins to move downwards due to expansion of the uterus. In breech position, the baby’s head gets settled lower in pelvis. Due to this, a pregnant mother feels a lot of pressure on the urinary bladder. It is seen that some babies are likely to engage after 36 weeks; however, some babies engage when the labor starts."

It’s used to diagnose and treat pain in the lower part of the abdomen and the pelvis. Your brain sends information to the body through pathways known as nerves. Nerves also receive information from the body and send it to the proper regions of the brain. A nerve plexus is a place in the body where many different nerves intersect. Nerves that communicate some types of pain signals from the lower abdomen and pelvis pass through the superior hypogastric plexus on their way to the brain. Your superior hypogastric plexus sits in front of the spine in the lower part of your back. Nerves from several parts of the lower abdomen and pelvis pass through this plexus. That includes nerves from the following organs: Bladder or urethra Lower intestines Uterus, ovaries, or vagina Prostate, testicles, or penis During an SHPB, a healthcare provider will place needles in your back on both sides of the spine."

The pelvis, or pelvic girdle, is a muscle, bone, and connective tissue structure that provides a foundation for the lower extremities, the legs and also supports a portion of the abdominal and pelvic cavities. The shape of the pelvis (among other adaptions) is also what supports bipedalism in humans. It also helps to protect the bladder, the gonads (i.e., reproductive organs), and other visceral organs in the lower abdominopelvic region.

If you find yourself commonly searching for remedies for fast back pain relief, it may be time to investigate the psoas muscle. The psoas major, technically named iliopsoas, may very well be one of the most important muscles in the body. Why? This deep-seated core muscle helps support your back and so much more. If the psoas is weak, it could be the cause of back pain, neck pain and various other issues. In fact, the psoas major muscle is especially unique, particularly when it comes to postural function. It’s the only muscle that connects the lumbar spine and lower body. ( 1) It’s clear to see taking care of this deep psoas muscle is crucial to a strong, pain-free body.

This is really good in a sense but can also be dangerous if I were to do something that causes a fracture to my pelvis, the structure that does things like protecting my bladder and joining to my spine and legs to provide stability within my body. The pelvis is like a hard pretzel; it is usually not possible to fracture it in only one spot. The reason that even one fracture in the pelvis is really bad is because your pelvis, which the hips are a part of, are like a hard pretzel. Go ahead and try breaking a hard pretzel in one spot without having it crack in another. It's not possible! Likewise, a fracture of the pelvic ring usually leads to an automatic fracture, free of charge, in another spot."

"text": "\"How Fetal Position Can Affect Labor We've been talking about how fetal position can affect a woman's belly shape. Today, we start discussing how it can affect labor. As a reminder of what we discussed last time, remember that an Anterior baby (Occiput Anterior, or OA) means the baby is head-down; the back of the baby's head is towards mom's belly and the baby is facing towards mom's back. Anterior Baby A Posterior baby (Occiput Posterior, or OP) means that the baby is also head down BUT the back of the its head is towards mom's back and baby is facing towards mom's front. Other names for the OP position include \"\"stargazer\"\" or \"\"sunny side up\"\" because the baby seems to be looking \"\"up\"\" at the sky when mom is lying down. Posterior Baby Why Fetal Position is Relevant Question: Why be concerned about the position of the baby before birth? Answer: Because the anterior position (facing mom's back) is generally an easier position for birth. A posterior baby (facing mom's belly) is generally a harder position for birth and the cause behind many cesareans these days. But why is that? Well, there are a number of factors that are at work here."

The bones of the skeleton have the main function of supporting our body weight and acting as attachment points for our muscles. The focus in this study session will be on the female pelvis, which supports the major load of the pregnant uterus, and the fetal skull, which has to pass through the woman’s pelvis when she gives birth. There are certain key landmarks in the anatomy of the female pelvis and the fetal skull that we will show you in this study session. Knowing these landmarks will enable you to estimate the progress of labour, by identifying changes in their relative positions as the baby passes down the birth canal. You will learn how to do this in the next Module in this curriculum, which is on Labour and Delivery Care.

It begins at the bottom of the brain stem (at the area called the medulla oblongata), and it ends in the lower back as it tapers to form a cone called the conus medullaris. Anatomically, the spinal cord runs from the top of the highest neck bone (the C1 vertebra) to approximately the level of the L1 vertebra, which is the highest bone of the lower back and which is found just below the rib cage. The spinal cord is about 18 inches (45 centimeters) in length and is relatively cylindrical in shape. The cervical (neck) and lumbar (lower back) segments house the spinal cord's two areas of enlargement. Beginning at the tip of the conus medullaris, a fibrous band called the filium terminale begins at the tip of the conus medullaris and extends to the pelvis. At the bottom of the spinal cord (conus medullaris) is the cauda equina, a collection of nerves that derives its name from the Latin translation of \"\"horse's tail.\"\" ( Early anatomists thought the collection of nerves resembled a horse's tail. ) Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) surrounds the spinal cord, which is also shielded by three protective layers called the meninges (dura, arachnoid and pia mater). The spinal cord lies inside the spinal column, which is made up of 33 bones called vertebrae."

He was flying home from a business trip when, because of fog, he had to make a forced landing in a plowed field. On landing, the plane came abruptly to rest on its nose. His companion was killed on impact, and he was thrown from the cockpit. On admission to the emergency department, he was unconscious and showed signs of severe hypovolemic (loss of circulating blood) shock. He had extensive bruising of the lower part of the anterior abdominal wall, and the front of his pelvis was prominent on the right side. During examination of the penis, it was possible to express a drop of blood-stained fluid from the external orifice. No evidence of external hemorrhage was present. Radiographic examination of the pelvis showed a dislocation of the symphysis pubis and a linear fracture through the lateral part of the sacrum on the right side. The urethra was damaged by the shearing forces applied to the pelvic area, which explained the blood-stained fluid from the external orifice of the penis."

The pelvis (plural pelves or pelvises) is either the lower part of the trunk of the human body [1] between the abdomen and the thighs (sometimes also called pelvic region of the trunk) or the skeleton embedded in it [2] (sometimes also called bony pelvis, or pelvic skeleton ). The pelvic region of the trunk includes the bony pelvis, the pelvic cavity (the space enclosed by the bony pelvis), the pelvic floor, below the pelvic cavity, and the perineum, below the pelvic floor. [ 1] The pelvic skeleton is formed in the area of the back, by the sacrum and the coccyx and anteriorly and to the left and right sides, by a pair of hip bones. The two hip bones connect the spine with the lower limbs. They are attached to the sacrum posteriorly, connected to each other anteriorly, and joined with the two femurs at the hip joints. The gap enclosed by the bony pelvis, called the pelvic cavity, is the section of the body underneath the abdomen and mainly consists of the reproductive organs (sex organs) and the rectum, while the pelvic floor at the base of the cavity assists in supporting the organs of the abdomen. In mammals, the bony pelvis has a gap in the middle, significantly larger in females than in males. Their young pass through this gap when they are born.

[ 2]The sacrum is situated at the upper, back part of the pelvic cavity, between the two wings of the pelvis. It forms joints with four other bones. The two projections at the sides of the sacrum are called the alae (wings), and articulate with the ilium at the L-shaped sacroiliac joints. The upper part of the sacrum connects with the last lumbar vertebra, and its lower part with the coccyx (tailbone) via the sacral and coccygeal cornua. The sacrum has three different surfaces which are shaped to accommodate surrounding pelvic structures. Overall it is concave (curved upon itself). The base of the sacrum, the broadest and uppermost part, is tilted forward as the sacral promontory internally. The central part is curved outward toward the posterior, allowing greater room for the pelvic cavity."

It transmits the weight of the body to the pelvic girdle. As the name suggests, sacral insufficiency fractures occur when the quality of the sacral bone has become insufficient to handle the stress of weight bearing. The bone has lost some of its supporting structure and has become weak. Since this is usually because of osteoporosis, sacral insufficiency fractures occur most often in older women. This guide will help you understandwhat parts make up the sacrumwhat causes this conditionhow doctors diagnose this conditionwhat treatment options are available Anatomy What makes up the sacrum?

There is no movement or activation required. These passive systems are mainly used to compartmentalize a fire and keep it from spreading for a period of time long enough that occupants can evacuate the building and so firefighters can perform initial lifesaving tasks. Penetration Firestop Systems Modern buildings are full of various services that travel from room to room throughout a building. Electrical cables, data cables, and plumbing pipes are few of the items that pass through walls as they travel through a building. Engineers try to avoid having these services pass through fire and smoke barriers, but it is usually impossible. When a service must pass through a rated wall, penetration firestop systems are used to ensure the wall rating is maintined. There are two types of penetration firestopping: Through Penetration Firestop systems are those that protect penetrations that pass all the way through the barrier, whether it is a wall or a floor. In general, both sides of the penetration are sealed with the proper system. Membrane Penetration Firestop systems protect penetrations that pass through part of the barrier, but not the entire barrier."

Hardness may be defined as a material's resistance to indentation. The durometer scale was defined by Albert Ferdinand Shore, who developed a device to measure Shore hardness in the 1920s. The term durometer is often used to refer to the measurement as well as the instrument itself. Durometer is typically used as a measure of hardness in polymers, elastomers, and rubbers.

Every day, you hear about Cyber hackers attacking into computer systems and servers, stealing everything from passwords to financial information and data. No matter how hard the management and IT teams at these businesses try to combat these types of security breaches, the hacker is always one step ahead. In fact, this can be very much likened to that of a cat and mouse game. But, the good news is that there is a way a company can find out security weaknesses and vulnerabilities before the Cyber Hacker can. This can be accomplished through an iterative process known as “Penetration Testing”, or simply known as a “Pen Test” for short. In simple terms (although the actual testing can be quite complex a Pen Test examines any weaknesses in the IT infrastructure of a corporation by trying to discover and exploit them, in a safe manner. These vulnerabilities can be found in the software itself at these particular points of entry: Backdoors in the Operating System;Unintentional flaws in the design of the software code;Improper software configuration management implementation;Using the actual software application in a way it was not intended to be used. Pen Testing can be accomplished either through manual or automatic processes and is often targeted towards the following endpoints: Servers;Network endpoints;Wireless networks;Network security devices (this is hit upon the most in an actual Pen Test, which includes the Routers, Firewalls, Network Intrusion devices, etc. ); Mobile and wireless devices;Other areas of exposure, such as that of software applications and the code behind it."

Infections are treated with drugs called antihelminthics. What are worms? A parasite is an organism that lives in a host organism (e.g. a human) and which gets its food at the expense of its host. Helminths (worms) are large organisms that are usually visible to the naked eye in the adult stage. Worms usually (but not always) live in the gastrointestinal tract (the gut)."

The six most frequently used NDT methods are eddy-current, magnetic-particle, liquid penetrant, radiographic, ultrasonic, and visual testing. [ 3] NDT is commonly used in forensic engineering, mechanical engineering, petroleum engineering, electrical engineering, civil engineering, systems engineering, aeronautical engineering, medicine, and art. [ 1] Innovations in the field of nondestructive testing have had a profound impact on medical imaging, including on echocardiography, medical ultrasonography, and digital radiography. Various national and international trade associations exist to promote the industry, knowledge about non-destructive testing, and to develop standard methods and training. These include the American Society for Nondestructive Testing, the Non-Destructive Testing Management Association, the International Committee for Non-Destructive Testing, the European Federation for Non-Destructive Testing and the British Institute of Non-Destructive Testing. NDT methods rely upon use of electromagnetic radiation, sound and other signal conversions to examine a wide variety of articles (metallic and non-metallic, food-product, artifacts and antiquities, infrastructure) for integrity, composition, or condition with no alteration of the article undergoing examination.

Because it allows inspection without interfering with a product's final use, NDI provides an excellent balance between quality control and cost-effectiveness. The term \"\"NDI\"\" includes many methods that can:detect internal or external imperfectionsdetermine structure, compostion, or material propertiesmeasure geometric characteristics NDI can and should be used in any phase of a product's design and manufacturing process, including materials selection, research and development, assembly, quality control and maintenance. Taken from the web pages of the American Society for Nondestructive Testing Nondestructive Inspection (NDI) is a method of materials characterization very important to the materials engineer. Problems and defects of all kinds arise in the development and use of mechanical devices, electrical equipment, hydraulic systems, transportation mechanisms and the like. However, an extremely wide range of nondestructive testing methods are available to help the engineer to examine these different problems and various defects in an assortment of materials and under varying circumstances. Commonly used non-destructive inspection methods include liquid penetrant, magnetic particle, eddy current and radiographic inspection, ultrasonic inspection, tomography, and real-time radiography. State-of-the-art developments in digital image enhancement [including color-enhanced images such as those included in this web page] have broadly expanded the applicaiton and utility of NDI methods in the industry.

"text": "What You Need To Know to Become a Penetration Tester It really has been a long time since I last posted. This post is more of an essay, so it may be a TL;DR for some, but hopefully a there is some good information for those who wish to break into Penetration testing or at the very least something I can point people to next time I'm, asked. As I’m sure is the experience of other Penetration Testers, I’m often asked (or see slapped across Linked In Forums) by a whole range of people “How do I break into Penetration testing?” or the like. The prospect of becoming a ‘professional hacker’ is all too enticing for graduates, IT professionals and even Information Security bods in other functional areas alike. Having answered this question and posed many a question in rebuttal, I decided to formalise my experiences, musings and advice into a single blog post. I hope it helps. What is Penetration Testing? To begin with, it’s always worth checking your understanding of what a Penetration tester actually is, does and some of the attributes belonging to the ‘good and great ones’. Being a Penetration tester is not the same as being (what the media often portray as) a hacker."

Works great for high-penetrance, single gene traits and diseases. QTL mapping/interval mapping - for quantitative traits like height that are polygenic. Same as linkage mapping except the phenotype is continuous and the markers are put into a scoring scheme to measure their contribution - i.e. \"\"marker effects\"\" or \"\"allelic contribution\"\". Big in agriculture. GWAS/linkage disequilibrium mapping - score thousands of SNPs at once from a population of unrelated individuals. Measure association with a disease or trait with the presumption that some markers are in LD with, or actually are, causative SNPs. So linkage mapping and QTL mapping are similar in that they rely on Mendelian inheritance to isolate loci. QTL mapping and GWAS are similar in that they typically measure association in terms of log-odds along a genetic or physical map and do not assume one gene or locus is responsible."

"text": "Open Source Active Reconnaissance (Red Team)March 29, 2016 Ryan Fyffe From The Front Lines With the current threat landscape and likelihood of targeted attacks, organizations are dealing with myriad attempts to breach their network on a daily basis. This makes understanding how attackers learn about your organization’s network, employees, and business practices crucial. Having visibility into an attacker’s reconnaissance (recon) activities, whether it is active network scanning or passive information gathering through social media, enables an organization to better protect themselves from a large-scale breach. First, I would like to clarify some terminology. When referring to active network reconnaissance (recon), I mean sending packets to the target organization’s network or assets. This may be through automated scanning or manual testing. Passive recon entails collecting information about an organization through third party sites, such as social media sites. Active network recon poses the risk of being detected, which is why attackers often opt for the “low and slow” method you will see demonstrated in this post. Often, attackers default to spear phishing campaigns over active network recon because the likelihood of being detected is greater while scanning. Spear phishing allows for the targeting of certain individuals within an organization and follows the thinking that individuals are more vulnerable than say, a web server."
