"text": "\"Beading Resources > Encyclo BEADia > Gem Notes > Aragonite Meaning and Propertiesprinter friendly version Aragonite Meaning and Properties Aragonite History Aragonite, pronounced uh-RAG-oh-nite, is also known as tufa and tchazar crystal. This carbonate gemstone has a mellow orange or straw yellow color and has come to symbolize truth and understanding. The Aragon River in Spain, where it was first discovered in 1788, is what the mineral is named after. Aragonite is a carbonated metamorphous gemstone naturally found in stalactites or around natural hot springs. This form of aragonite is often called floss ferri (“iron flowers”), due to its thin, entwined branch-like crystal formations. Another source of aragonite can be found in the mother-of-pearl lining of mollusk shells. It is secreted by the mantle tissue of mollusks--specifically in pearl oysters--and makes up the layers of nacre that the oyster uses to create the pearl itself. The multiple thin layers of aragonite give the abalone shell the pearl-like luster and beauty that makes it much loved for sage smudging among certain Native American tribes. The ancient fossilizing qualities of aragonite are especially interesting. Its soluble calcium-like qualities are found to be a key factor in the preservation of many shell, snail and coral fossils."

"text": "\"Science & Mathematics Earth Sciences & Geology What are the three ways minerals are formed? Follow 5 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: There are more than three but here are some. Minerals form in igneous rocks when magmas crystallize. Minerals form in metamorphic rocks when pressure (and temperature) causes elements to replace other elements in preexisting minerals. Minerals form in sedimentary rocks when solutions become saturated and precipitate crystals. Amphibolite · 10 years ago0 3 Comment For the best answers, search on this site https://shorturl.im/1Lg Mq I don't know of any particular websites, but here in a nutshell is what all that means. Precipitation from a solution occurs when the chemicals that will form a mineral are in solution (of water, usually). When the water begins to evaporate the concentration of the chemicals increases, until there isn't enough water to hold them all in solution. At that point the chemicals bond to one another in a regular manner, and mineral crystals are formed. To demonstrate this all you need do is dissolve common salt in hot water, until no more dissolves."

They are the most common types of speleothems in caves. In caves, stalagmites grow rather slowly — 0.00028 – 0.037 in/yr (0.007 – 0.929 mm/yr) — while in artificial tunnels and basements they grow much faster. Soda straw stalactites are the fastest growing (up to 1.57 in/yr, 40 mm/yr), but most fragile stalactites in caves. Soda straw stalactites form along a drop of water and continue growing down from the cave ceiling forming a tubular stalactite, which resembles a drinking straw in appearance. Their internal diameter is exactly equal to the diameter of the water drop. Formation of most stalactites is initiated as soda straws. If water flows on their external surface, they begin to grow in thickness and obtain a conical form. If a stalactite curves along its length, it is called a deflected stalactite. If its curving is known to be caused by air currents, it is called anemolite."

"text": "\"PEARL, a composite of Aragonite and conchiolin PEARL is often considered a gemstone, although it is not a mineral. Rather, pearl is a composite of the mineral Aragonite (Calcium Carbonate) and the organic compound conchiolin (a protein). The combination is called nacre, or mother-of-pearl. In some cases, there is an admixture of the mineral calcite (another mineral composed of Calcium Carbonate). In pearl oysters and freshwater pearl mussels, nacre forms the inner lining of the shell. In most other molluscs the shell has an appearance more like porcelain, and lacks the luster and iridescence of mother-of-pearl. A pearl is formed inside these molluscs when minute hexagonal crystals of aragonite and conchiolin (as a binder) are deposited over an irritant. As a composite, it is tougher than the aragonite from which it's formed, and the layered nature of the structure contributes to the luster of the pearl. An ideal pearl is spherical, but other shapes are common. A pearl may even become cemented against the inner wall of the shell, and eventually become a blister pearl."

"text": "\"Science, Tech, Math ›Animals and Nature How Mollusks Make Pearls Share Flipboard Email Print Mark Lewis/ Stone/ Getty Imagesby Jennifer Kennedy Updated August 16, 2017The pearls you may wear in earrings and necklaces are the result of an irritant under the shell of a living organism. Pearls are formed by saltwater or freshwater mollusks - a diverse group of animals that includes oysters, mussels, clams, conchs, and gastropods . How Do Mollusks Make Pearls? Pearls are formed when an irritant, such as a bit of food, grain of sand, bacteria or even a piece of the mollusk's mantle becomes trapped in the mollusk. To protect itself, the mollusk secretes the substances aragonite (a mineral) and conchiolin (a protein), which are the same substances it secretes to form its shell. The composite of these two substances is called nacre, or mother-of-pearl. The layers are deposited around the irritant and it grows over time, forming the pearl. Depending on how the aragonite is arranged, the pearl may have a high luster (nacre, or mother-of-pearl) or a more porcelain-like surface that doesn't have that luster. In the case of the low-luster pearls, the sheets of aragonite crystals are perpendicular to or at an angle to the surface of the pearl. For the iridescent nacreous pearls, the crystal layers are overlapping."

"text": "Calcite, the most common form of natural calcium carbonate (Ca CO 3 ), a widely distributed mineral known for the beautiful development and great variety of its crystals. It is polymorphous (same chemical formula but different crystal structure) with the minerals aragonite and vaterite and with several forms that apparently exist only under rather extreme experimental conditions. General considerations The carbonate minerals calcite, aragonite, and dolomite have been calculated to make up approximately 15 percent of the Earth ’s sediments and sedimentary rocks and about 2 percent of the terrestrial crust. A large percentage of the calcite, the most abundant of these carbonate minerals, occurs in limestones, which constitute noteworthy proportions of many sequences of marine sediments. Calcite is also the chief component of marls, travertines, calcite veins, most speleothems (cave deposits), many marbles and carbonatites, and some ore-bearing veins. Calcite is the stable form of Ca CO 3 at most temperatures and pressures. The orthorhombic polymorph of Ca CO 3, aragonite, though frequently deposited in nature, is metastable at room temperature and pressure and readily inverts to calcite; the inversion has been shown experimentally to be spontaneous when aragonite is heated to 400 °C in dry air and at lower temperatures when it is in contact with water. Hexagonal vaterite, the other natural polymorph of Ca CO 3, is extremely rare and has been shown in the laboratory to transform into calcite or aragonite or both penecontemporaneously with its formation—i.e., it appears to be metastable under essentially all known natural conditions. Chemical composition Some natural calcites are essentially pure Ca CO 3; others contain noteworthy percentages of other cations (e.g., Mg, Mn, Fe, boron [B], bromine [Br], Sr, and/or Y), substituting for some of their calcium."

"text": "Quaternary International Volumes 176–177, January 2008, Pages 82-95Silicification of cave corals from some lava tube caves in the Jeju Island, Korea: Implications for speleogenesis and a proxy for paleoenvironmental change during the Late Quaternary K. S. Woo a D. W Choi a 1 K. C Lee b Show morehttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.quaint.2007.05.008 Get rights and content Abstract Cave corals, formed by groundwater seepage, are present in some lava tubes (Socheon, Jingaemot, Susan, Mosimoru, and Bilemot caves) of the Jeju Island, Korea. The cave corals in Socheon Cave consist of calcite, whereas those in Jingaemot and Mosimoru caves are composed of opal-A, calcite, and/or aragonite. Cave corals in Susan and Bilemot caves consist of opal-A. Most show similar morphology to those in limestone caves, but some have morphology resembling frostworks. Internal texture of the cave corals in Jingaemot Cave shows alternating layers of aragonite and calcite, spherulitic-fibrous, and isopachous-fibrous microstructures, respectively. Calcite layers were more susceptible to silicification, and the replacing opal-A commonly retains relic crystals of pre-existing carbonate minerals. The corroded nature of replaced carbonate minerals indicates that the growth of carbonate minerals and silicification were controlled by the p H conditions of intermittent cave water. The chemical conditions of the fluids responsible for the precipitation of aragonite or calcite and for silicification appear to be influenced by the presence of overlying carbonate sediments, the degree of basalt weathering, and the amount of rainfalls, ultimately controlled by local climatic changes in the past. Previous article Next article1. Introduction Lava tube caves may form by lava flowing down along slopes after the eruption of magma. They develop as hard crusts on the surface of lava flow due to rapid cooling, while inside the lava remains liquid, draining downslope and leaving an empty tube behind it ( Woo, 2005 )."

It is formed by biological and physical processes, including precipitation from marine and freshwater environments. Aragonite's crystal lattice differs from that of calcite, resulting in a different crystal shape, an orthorhombic crystal system with acicular crystal. Repeated twinning results in pseudo-hexagonal forms.

In this lesson we'll be concerned with physical properties: those which do not depend on the gem's interaction with light to be expressed or measured. ( In the next lesson we'll look at the optical properties). All properties of gems (whether physical or optical) derive from the underlying three dimensional structure and chemical compositionof the gem. Or to put it another way, the chemical elements that make up the gem, and how the atoms of those elements are put together to create its inner structure, determine all those properties that we can see, feel, and measure. Amorphous vs Crystalline: The most basic discrimination that can be made, based on internal structure, is that between gems which are amorphous, and those which are crystalline. Crystalline gems have a specific chemical formula, and a well defined, highly predictable internal structure, known as a crystal lattice. Amorphous gem species also have a specific chemical formula, but their constituent atoms are not arranged in such regular and predictable patterns as those of crystalline materials. Amorphous Gems\"\"Amorphous\"\" literally means \"\"without form\"\", but, of course, these materials have a form--> it's just not highly regular and predictable, nor is it expressed outwardly by the formation of crystals. Some examples of amorphous gems are: the natural glasses, amber, jet, opal, and \"\"metamict\"\" minerals."

As a lake is separated from the ocean, it is not a sea. Some lakes are very big, and people in the past sometimes called them seas. Lakes do not flow, like rivers, but many have rivers flowing into and out of them. Most lakes on the surface of the Earth are fresh water and most are in the Northern Hemisphere. More than 60% of the lakes of the world are in Canada. Finland is known as The Land of the Thousand Lakes (there are 187,888 lakes in Finland, of which 60,000 are large). [ 1]Many lakes are man-made reservoirs built to produce electricity, for recreation, or to use the water for irrigation or industry, or in houses. If there are not rivers flowing out of the lake (see Endorheic basin ), or they are few and small, the lake loses water only by evaporation or because the water flows through the soil pores. Where the water evaporates rapidly and the soil around the lake has a high salt level, as in very dry places, the water of the lake has a high concentration of salt and the lake is called a salt lake."

That water could also be used to create an atmosphere. But if a star was close to another star that went supernova, the tremendous heat that was generated as a result could simply have vaporized almost all water from the system. We would only be able to use whatever water resources are available. Scientists would only be able to use available water and gasses from whatever comets might have survived, what was still left in the planet's polar craters or what could be found in the planet's rocks.

The Continental Divide extends from the Bering Strait to the Strait of Magellan, and separates the watersheds that drain into the Pacific Ocean from those river systems that drain into the Atlantic Ocean (including those that drain into the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea) and, along the northernmost reaches of the Divide, those river systems that drain into the Arctic Ocean.

This 2014, the continual shrinking of Aral Sea was tagged as one of the world's worst environmental disasters. The Aral Sea was a lake resting in between Kazakhstan in the north and Uzbekistan's autonomous region Karakalpakstan, in the south. Its name literally means as \"\"Sea of Islands\"\", which was referring to approximately 1,534 islands that formerly scattered its waters. As per the Old Turkic dialect, the word Aral means \"\"island\"\" and \"\"thicket\"\". The continual shrinking of the Aral Sea this 2014 stunned the world and several environmentalists. It had declined to 10 percent of its original size, splitting into four lakes in 2007. In 2009, the southeastern lake had vanished and the southwestern lake had recoiled to a thin swath at the extreme west of the former southern sea. In ensuing years, infrequent water flows have led to the southeastern lake sometimes being replenished to a small degree. Due to the ongoing shrinkage of the Aral Sea, the northern part had a maximum depth of 42 meters or around 138 feet as of 2008."

The region’s two major rivers, fed by snowmelt and precipitation in faraway mountains, were used to transform the desert into farms for cotton and other crops. Before the project, the Syr Darya and the Amu Darya rivers flowed down from the mountains, cut northwest through the Kyzylkum Desert, and finally pooled together in the lowest part of the basin. The lake they made, the Aral Sea, was once the fourth largest in the world. Although irrigation made the desert bloom, it devastated the Aral Sea. This series of images from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Terra satellite documents the changes. At the start of the series in 2000, the lake was already a fraction of its 1960 extent (yellow line). The North Aral Sea (sometimes called the Small Aral Sea) had separated from the South (Large) Aral Sea. The South Aral Sea had split into eastern and western lobes that remained tenuously connected at both ends. By 2001, the southern connection had been severed, and the shallower eastern part retreated rapidly over the next several years."

Sea water has a very high concentration of salts, mainly consisting of Na Cl, and Magnesium. Its salt concentration is around 3.5% or 599 m M (millimolar) or 35g of solute per liter of water. Plasma is what you get when you stick your blood in a centrifuge, spin, and take off what's left at the top (i.e. no platelets or blood cells). It consists mainly of water, sugar, proteins, clotting factors etc., and has a Na+ (sodium ion) concentration of around 135 m M (milli molar) or 0.9%.

Note that there are substantial areas of the world that do not \"\"drain\"\" in the commonly understood sense. In Arctic deserts much of the snowfall sublimates directly into the air and does not melt into flowing water, while in equatorial deserts precipitation may evaporate before joining any substantial water course. However, these areas can still be included in topographically defined basins if one considers the hypothetical flow of water (or ice), and thus nutrients or pollutants, over the surface of the ground (or ice sheet); this is the approach taken here.

Its environmental, climatic, socioeconomic and humanitarian consequences make it a direct threat to sustainable development in the region, and to the health, gene pool and future of the people living there. The Aral Sea crisis directly affects Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, and indirectly – Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan. The Aral Sea catastrophe stands as convincing evidence of the interplay between the environment and strategic security. For this reason, the countries in the region affected by the catastrophe are appealing to the international community for the fact that desiccation of the Aral Sea will have damaging effects not only locally, but also globally. NASA Satellite Image August 2003< >In Detail Since the 1990s, the states of Central Asia have been undertaking all efforts to mitigate this environmental disaster, but their resources and physical capacity fall short, and the assistance provided by international donors remains limited and inadequate to fully address the problems of the Aral Sea area. As the borders of the area affected by the environmental crisis continue to expand, the scale of the crisis will become ever more disastrous, with far-reaching consequences not only for countries in the region but also far beyond its borders, unless additional assistance from the international community is brought to bear. Until 1960, the Aral Sea among the largest inland water bodies in the world. It was 426 kilometers long and 284 kilometers wide, with an area of 68,900 square kilometers, water volume of 1,083 cubic kilometers, and a maximum depth of 68 m. The Aral Sea region had a large variety of flora and fauna, its waters contained 38 species of fish; it served as habitat for a number of rare and endemic animals, among which is the Saiga antelopes; and its flora included 638 species of higher plants. The Aral Sea played a vital role in the development of the regional economy, its industries, sources of employment and sustainable social infrastructure."

"text": "\"Sustainability Top 10 Water Wasters: From Washing Dishes to Watering the Desert The many ways we squander water, from unintentional leaks to outright negligence By Adam Hadhazy on July 23, 2008Credit: i Stock Photo Many of us use water thoughtlessly; it seems as abundant as the air we breathe and a free swig is available almost anywhere. But fresh, potable water is already a precious commodity in many drier parts of the world, and as it grows rarer —and thus, dearer—in developed countries, the true value of H2O is beginning to seep in. Until water shortages impact more of us directly it is likely that this liquid resource will continue to be poorly managed. Whether it's the inefficient flooding of farm fields or hosing down our cars every weekend, people find many ways to waste water. The recent story of a profligate user who changed his ways could perhaps serve as an example for us all: Saving water often comes down to paying attention. Although Atlanta recently suffered its worst drought in a century, the local estate of wealthy investor Chris G. Carlos consumed 440,000 gallons (1.67 million liters) in September 2007 alone. After a public outcry, Carlos dramatically reduced his monthly usage to just 12,000 (45,400 liters)—about what an average U. S. family of four expends during the same time period. Although that's an extreme case, it shows that there's often little reason why we can't save more water in our day-to-day lives. Here's a list of some of the more egregious ways in which we squander it; some are easily avoidable, whereas others will require big changes in agricultural and industrial practices.1. Doing the Dishes: By Hand or Dishwasher?"

"text": "\"Philosophy Philosophy of Law Law and Philosophy Library© 2006The Concept of Rights Authors: Rainbolt, George W. About this book Reviews What is it to have a right? Previous answers to this question can be divided into two groups. Some (e.g., Joseph Raz) hold interest/benefit theories of rights while others (e.g., H. L. A. Hart and Carl Wellman) hold choice/will theories of rights. The Concept of Rights defends an alternative to both of the traditional views, the justified-constraint theory of rights. On this view, a person has a right if and only if a feature of that person is a sound justification for others to have a particular sort of normative constraint. The justified-constraint theory avoids the problems which have bedeviled the interest/benefit theories and the choice/will theories. It also solves the puzzle of the relational nature of rights. On the justified-constraint view, an obligation correlative to a right is to the right-holder when it is a feature of the right-holder that justifies the obligation. The analysis also shows that, as far as the concept of rights is concerned, any sort of individual or group can have rights. The limits on what sorts of things have rights are substantive, not conceptual."

It is generally thought that the same divine name is found in Arabic (Ilah as singular \"\"a god\"\", as opposed to Allah meaning \"\"The God\"\" or \"\"God\"\") and in Aramaic ( Elah ). In the Tanakh, the singular form is used in six places for heathen deities (e.g., 2 Chronicles 32:15; Daniel 11:37-8;), though in the majority of cases the name is used for the God of Israel.

Now the Fiji government wants 15 cents per liter. This week, Fiji Water said no and shut down operations, but only for a day. The company is a major employer on the island, and hundreds of Fijians would be without work if the factory shut down. NPR's Guy Raz talks to Charles Fishman, a journalist who has written about the bottled water business for Fast Company magazine. GUY RAZ, host: Now, if you're anything like me, you sometimes wonder if that fancy bottle of water you just paid two bucks for came from a tap in New Jersey. Well, Fiji Water actually comes from an aquifer in Fiji. It's true. The water in that square bottle comes all the way from the South Pacific right to your local 7-Eleven.

[ 1] The towns of Nazareth and Capernaum in Galilee, where Jesus spent most of his time, were Aramaic-speaking communities.

In spite of the increasing importance of Greek, the use of Aramaic was also expanding, and it would eventually be dominant among Jews both in the Holy Land and elsewhere in the Middle East around 200 AD [6] and would remain so until the Islamic conquests in the seventh century. [ 7] [8]According to Dead Sea Scrolls archaeologist Yigael Yadin, Aramaic was the language of Hebrews until Simon Bar Kokhba's revolt (132 AD to 135 AD). Yadin noticed the shift from Aramaic to Hebrew in the documents he studied, which had been written during the time of the Bar Kokhba revolt. In his book, Bar Kokhba: The rediscovery of the legendary hero of the last Jewish Revolt Against Imperial Rome, Yigael Yadin notes, \"\"It is interesting that the earlier documents are written in Aramaic while the later ones are in Hebrew. Possibly the change was made by a special decree of Bar Kokhba who wanted to restore Hebrew as the official language of the state\"\". [ 9]In another book by Sigalit Ben-Zion, Yadin said: \"\"it seems that this change came as a result of the order that was given by Bar Kokhba, who wanted to revive the Hebrew language and make it the official language of the state.\"\" ["

"text": "I am continually amazed by how many people write to our ministry and ask us questions like this one, which came in last week: “Some Christians say we have to use the Hebrew name, Yashua. They say calling on the name of Jesus is calling on Zeus. That Jesus is a disguise name for Satan. What answers do you have for this? Where can we prove the name of Jesus is correct to use in its English translation and pronunciation?”As bizarre as these questions are, the fact that they keep coming up means that they need to be addressed, so here are some simple responses (for more details, see 60 Questions Christians Ask About Jewish Beliefs and Practices, question #38). The original Hebrew-Aramaic name of Jesus is yeshu‘a, which is short for yehōshu‘a (Joshua), just as Mike is short for Michael. The name yeshu‘a occurs 27 times in the Hebrew Scriptures, primarily referring to the high priest after the Babylonian exile, called both yehōshu‘a (see, e.g., Zechariah 3:3) and, more frequently, yeshu‘a (see, e.g., Ezra 3:2). So, Yeshua’s name was not unusual; in fact, as many as five different men had that name in the Old Testament. And this is how that name came to be “Jesus” in English: Simply stated, this is the etymological history of the name Jesus: Hebrew/Aramaic yeshu‘a became Greek Iēsous, then Latin Iesus, passing into German and then, ultimately, into English, as Jesus. Why then do some people refer to Jesus as Yahshua?"

OUR LORD, COME!Both of these statements are true, the first serving to undergird the absolute assurance of the second, which may account for the fact that this ancient word has been translated both ways. In fact Maranatha is translated either as a prayer or a statement of fact. As discussed in more detail below, the majority of Bible translations favor Maranatha as indicative of a prayer rather that a declarative statement. Furthermore, it is widely noted that the word \"\" Maranatha \"\" was a watchword of the early church used in greetings as a prayer for the Lord to return. This begs the question - Does the modern church mimic the first century church by praying \"\"Maranatha?\"\" The related applicational question is are we as the Bride of Christ, corporately and individually, living holy lives in the ever brightening light of the return of Jesus, our Bridegroom? Thomas Constable comments on the occurrence of Maranatha in 1Cor 16:22, noting that It is strange to meet with an Aramaic phrase in a Greek letter to a Greek Church. The explanation is that this phrase had become a watchword and a password. It summed up the vital hope of the early Church, and Christians whispered it to each other, identified each other by it, in a language which the heathen could not understand. ("

"text": "Writing a note. Photo Credit: Gajus / Shutterstock It is surprising that the Israeli VC community has not embraced the simplest, most efficient mechanism for early stage companies to raise financing: the “SAFE”Rafi Raz Mar 22, 2016While the Israeli hi-tech industry is continuously at the cutting edge of innovation, it is surprising that the VC community has failed to embrace what has become the simplest, quickest, most efficient and cost effective mechanism for early stage companies to raise financing: the “SAFE”. SAFE – an acronym for “Simple Agreement for Future Equity” – was created in 2013 by Y-Combinator, a Silicon Valley incubator. It is meant to replace convertible loan agreements (CLAs) in most cases of early stage financing, and today is commonly used in Silicon Valley but surprisingly less so in other jurisdictions, particularly outside the United States. Perhaps the reason we rarely see SAFE investments in Israel is that Israeli founders and entrepreneurs are not yet aware of this tool and its widespread use, and many investors are not keen to start using it, believing that CLAs offer more investor protection than the relatively new SAFE. The basic principle of SAFE is that funds are invested in the company in exchange for a future right to receive equity in the company as part of the next equity round in which the company issues preferred stock, and at a discounted price to the price per share of such financing round. SAFEs typically provide for a 15-20% discount off the round price and may or may not include a valuation cap for conversion. Both the CLA and SAFE enable companies to raise equity quickly and easily without pricing and consummating a complete equity round. CLAs and SAFEs save companies and investors the time and costs of negotiating commercial and legal terms, such as valuation, type of shares, liquidation and distribution preferences, anti-dilution mechanisms, conversion scenarios, protective provisions, board composition and detailed representations and warranties of the company and the founders. All of these issues would typically be covered in a detailed stock purchase agreement, the company’s articles of association, certificate of incorporation or other organizational document (depending on the jurisdiction) and stockholder agreement (s)."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search For other uses, see Aleph (disambiguation) and Alef (disambiguation). Alef Bet →Phoenician HebrewאAramaic SyriacܐArabicاPhonemic representation ʔ, a Position in alphabet 1Numerical value 1Alphabetic derivatives of the Phoenician Greek Α Latin A Cyrillic АAleph (or alef or alif) is the first letter of the Semitic abjads, including Phoenician 'Ālep , Hebrew 'Ālef א, Aramaic Ālap , Syriac ʾĀlap̄ ܐ, Arabic Alifا, and Persian. It also appears as South Arabian , and Ge'ez ʾÄlef አ. The Phoenician letter is derived from an Egyptian hieroglyph depicting an ox's head [1] and gave rise to the Greek Alpha (Α), being re-interpreted to express not the glottal consonant but the accompanying vowel, and hence the Latin A and Cyrillic А. In phonetics, aleph / ˈ ɑː l ɛ f / originally represented the onset of a vowel at the glottis. In Semitic languages, this functions as a weak consonant allowing roots with only two true consonants to be conjugated in the manner of a standard three consonant Semitic root. In most Hebrew dialects as well as Syriac, the glottal onset represented by Aleph is an absence of a true consonant although a glottal stop ( [ ʔ] ), which is a true consonant, typically occurs as an allophone. In Arabic, the Alif has the glottal stop pronunciation when occurring initially. In text with diacritical marks, the pronunciation as a glottal stop is usually indicated by a special marking, hamza in Arabic and mappiq in Tiberian Hebrew. ( Although once thought to be the original pronunciation of Aleph in all cases where it behaves as a consonant, a consistent glottal stop appears to have been absent in ancient Semitic languages such as Akkadian and Ugaritic besides being absent in Syriac and Hebrew.) Occasionally, the Aleph was also used to indicate an initial unstressed vowel before certain consonant clusters, without functioning as a consonant itself, the prosthetic (or prothetic) aleph. In later Semitic languages, Aleph could sometimes function as a mater lectionis indicating the presence of a vowel elsewhere (usually long)."

"text": "Kids School-age How much sleep should kids get? New studies question how much shut-eye is really necessary for school-age kids. By Lia Grainger | Jan 9, 2017Photo: i Stockphoto Silvia Araya,* mom to Adrian, 9, and Christina, 13, fondly remembers the slumber-filled days of her children’s early years. “ When my kids were babies, they took a lot of naps and slept for long hours. But now, with school and busy schedules, they’re sleeping much less,” she says. Adrian’s bedtime is 8 p.m. and he gets about 11 hours of sleep; Christina goes to bed at 9 or 10 p.m. and gets eight to nine hours. Like many parents, Araya relies on signs from her kids — drowsiness, irritability, difficulty concentrating—to determine how much sleep they need, more than calculating exact amounts. Both Adrian and Christina happen to fall within the latest guidelines. For about a decade, the paediatric sleep community has recommended that children three to five years old need 11 to 13 hours, children five to 10 years old need 10 to 11 hours, and adolescents 10 to 17 years need eight-and-a-half to nine-and-a-half hours of sleep each night. But three studies published over the last year have brought forward new, and at times contradictory, information."

Still, this is a blog about Ethiopian food, and it deserves to have a t’ej page.

I’ll try to keep this list up to date, and I welcome additions from readers and winemakers. Below the list, I’ll include a few facts about t’ej, and at the end of this page, you can watch a video in which I’ll teach you how to make t’ej in your home. The Ferenj Tej label and story. This is my own homebrew – not for sale. My other site, All About T’ej, features detailed, step-by-step instructions for making t’ej in your home, although I have done a post on this blog that shows you how to make t’ej.

This is no ordinary brewery, however. This is the home of the first minority-operated brewery in the city – and quite possibly the state. On Friday the 13th, we were fortunate enough to sit down and enjoy a beer with Toledo’s newest craft brewer; Chris Harris of Black Frog Brewery. Black Frog Brewery is the newest edition to the craft beer scene in Toledo, Ohio. In the very recent months, Toledo’s beer scene has really begun to take shape and catch up to neighboring Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati. With breweries such as Maumee Bay Brewing Company, Great Black Swamp Brewing Company, and the coming-soon Black Cloister Brewing Company, Black Frog Brewery will be welcomed into a community that is primed and eager for even more amazing craft beer. For better or for worse (you can be the judge), one of the defining features of Black Frog Brewery, aside from the fantastic beers they brew, is the fact that Black Frog will be the first minority owned & operated craft brewery in Toledo – and quite possibly the entire state of Ohio. Chris Harris, owner of Black Frog, will immediately be placed into the extremely exclusive group of minorities and people of color who own, operate and brew beer on a professional level.

"text": "\"Language is Arbitrary & Conventional Okay guys... I will try to answer some questions. Now it's about the features of language: arbitrary. The term arbitrary here refers to the fact that the symbol that people use is made or chosen without any principle, logic or reason. For example, people in Java do not have a principle or logic to call an animal with long tail, two hands, and two legs and like scratching and playing on trees as kethek. There is no logic either for people in Jakarta to call that animal monyet. This is what arbitrary means. So, to answer Daniel's question: English people do not have any reason why they call the animal that produces \"\"meauwww\"\" as cat. Again, this is because language is arbitrary: no logical reason is used when choosing a symbol, and no direct relationship between the symbol and the symbolized. Now that a group of people have chosen a symbol for something, all the members of the group should approve and use the same symbol to refer to the same thing. In the example above, the members of Javanese language society approve the use of symbol kethek to refer to that animal, while the members of Betawinese approve the use of monyet."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search For variables in computer science, see Variable (computer science). For other uses, see Variable (disambiguation). In elementary mathematics, a variable is a symbol, commonly an alphabetic character, that represents a number, called the value of the variable, which is either arbitrary, not fully specified, or unknown. Making algebraic computations with variables as if they were explicit numbers allows one to solve a range of problems in a single computation. A typical example is the quadratic formula, which allows one to solve every quadratic equation by simply substituting the numeric values of the coefficients of the given equation to the variables that represent them. The concept of a variable is also fundamental in calculus. Typically, a function y = f ( x) involves two variables, y and x, representing respectively the value and the argument of the function. The term \"\"variable\"\" comes from the fact that, when the argument (also called the \"\"variable of the function\"\") varies, then the value varies accordingly. [ 1]In more advanced mathematics, a variable is a symbol that denotes a mathematical object, which could be a number, a vector, a matrix, or even a function. In this case, the original property of \"\"variability\"\" of a variable is not kept (except, sometimes, for informal explanations)."

"text": "Turing Machines First published Thu Sep 14, 1995; substantive revision Tue Jun 26, 2012Turing machines, first described by Alan Turing in (Turing 1937a), are simple abstract computational devices intended to help investigate the extent and limitations of what can be computed. Turing was interested in the question of what it means for a task to be computable, which is one of the foundational questions in the philosophy of computer science . Intuitively a task is computable if it is possible to specify a sequence of instructions which will result in the completion of the task when they are carried out by some machine. Such a set of instructions is called an effective procedure , or algorithm, for the task. The problem with this intuition is that what counts as an effective procedure may depend on the capabilities of the machine used to carry out the instructions. In principle, devices with different capabilities may be able to complete different instruction sets, and therefore may result in different classes of computable tasks (see the entry on computability and complexity ). Turing proposed a class of devices that came to be known as Turing machines. These devices lead to a formal notion of computation that we will call Turing-computability. A task is Turing computable if it can be carried out by some Turing machine. The proposition that Turing's notion captures exactly the intuitive idea of effective procedure is called the Church-Turing thesis ."

Introduction to Symbolism Introduction: Any essay on symbols or symbolism needs to begin with a definition of what the author means by \"\" symbol .\"\" This word, symbol, has been used to mean any thing from a simple mark to complex and arcane images through convoluted stories, and even to philosophic arguments. Unfortunately, most tomes claiming to discuss or collect symbols try to ingore this ambiguity, making any effort to categorize books and other sources a highly subjective, not to mention tremendously intricate task, if not an impossible one. Further, there are all the similar and related terms: symbolize, symbolism, symbolic, signs, signals, significance, myths, mythology, images, and so forth. ( See the Glossary for quick definitions, (most of which are explained within this Introduction) as well as for other people's definitions of the terms. ) Moreover, a study of symbols necessarily ranges across broad categories such as the religious, psychological, anthropological, literary, artistic, linguistic, and related fields. Each of these fields of study tends to approach symbols, signs, myths, and related concepts from its own perspective. This broad interest is derived from the simple fact that symbols form part of our individual mentalities as well as being integral to our cultures. But what is a \"\"symbol\"\"?"

"text": "\"Can Chimpanzees Talk? Humans seem to acquire language in a manner different from other types of behavioral learning. The onset of language learning is sudden (around the age of 2). We learn our native language without instruction, in fact, we can learn 2-3 languages at that age as easily as one. If we do not learn to speak between the ages of 2 and 6, it appears that we lose the ability to speak normally the rest of our lives. All this evidence suggests that we have a ' language organ ' which other species do not possess, a segment of our brain which is triggered by a stage of development, much the same as walking is. A simple way to disprove this Innateness Hypothesis, as linguists call it, is to demonstrate that other species have the capacity to speak but for some reason simply have not developed speech. A logical candidate for such a species is the chimpanzee, which shares 98.4% of the human genetic code. Chimpanzees cannot speak because, unlike humans, their vocal cords are located higher in their throats and cannot be controlled as well as human vocal cords. It does not follow from their lack of speech, however, that chimpanzees are incapable of language, that is, a human-like grammar."

An onomatopoeia ( / ˌ ɒ n ə ˌ m æ t ə ˈ p iː ə, - ˌ m ɑː -/ ( listen); [1] [2] from the Greek ὀνοματοποιία; [3] ὄνομα for \"\"name\"\" [4] and ποιέω for \"\"I make\"\", [5] adjectival form: \"\"onomatopoeic\"\" or \"\"onomatopoetic\"\") is a word that phonetically imitates, resembles or suggests the sound that it describes. As an uncountable noun, onomatopoeia refers to the property of such words. Common occurrences of onomatopoeia include animal noises such as \"\"oink\"\", \"\"miaow\"\" (or \"\"meow\"\"), \"\"roar\"\" and \"\"chirp\"\". Onomatopoeia can differ between languages: it conforms to some extent to the broader linguistic system; [6] [7] hence the sound of a clock may be expressed as tick tock in English, tictac in Spanish, dī dā in Mandarin, or katchin katchin in Japanese, or \"\"tik-tik\"\" in Hindi. Although in the English language the term onomatopoeia means \"\"the imitation of a sound\"\", the compound word onomatopoeia (ὀνοματοποιία) in the Greek language means \"\"making or creating names\"\". For words that imitate sounds, the term ὴχομιμητικό (echomimetico) or echomimetic) is used. ὴχομιμητικό (echomimetico) derives from ὴχώ, meaning echo or sound, and μιμητικό, meaning mimetic or imitation."

From the article, 'A degree can be defined as a set change in temperature measured against a given scale'. What this means it that when you are saying something is X degrees C/F/K, you're indicating that temperature of the object relative to a specific scale. The Celsius scale is relative to the temperatures that water changes state at, for example. The Kelvin differs from other temperature measurement scales in a very important way: its scale is not relative but rather an absolute temperature scale.

J. Petrie: \"\"Chomsky vs. Skinner on Language\"\"Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ]HOW DOES SKINNER AND CHOMSKY'S EXPLANATION FOR THE ACQUISITION OF GRAMMAR DIFFER ? The two men share greatly differing views and ideas to the acquisition of grammar in humans. Skinner, a behavioural psychologist and Chomsky a linguist, their branches of science are already different. Skinner's explanation of language was that any acquisition was due to a learning process involving the shaping of grammar into a correct form by the re-enforcement of other stimulus, correct grammar is positively re-enforced and will be used in the future, and incorrect grammar is negatively re-enforced and will be not be used again. Chomsky differed in his view that human grammar acquisition is an innate biological ability that all humans possess, and viewed some form of `generative grammar' which he felt could explain the rapid acquisition and creative nature of grammar and language. Skinner proposed a `finite', (single word) processing system used in sentence interpretation, whereas Chomsky advocated a model involving whole sentence processing using some form of `transformational' system. Both men have juxtaposing theories on how it is that all humans manage to obtain grammar and seeing as chronologically Skinner was first, here is a good place to start. B. F Skinner was a Behavioural Psychologist and was unconcerned with any `underlying mental processes' that may have been occurring during learning and denounced these `un-observables' as fictitious. Instead he was concerned with the observable materialistic nature of behaviour. He felt that there was no `underlying' meaning to words and that verbal behaviour was due to the conditioning that occurs between the words and the reinforcement properties of a stimulus."

[ 1]However, it is Ferdinand de Saussure (1857–1913) who is considered to be the founder of modern 'scientific' linguistics. Central to what de Saussure says about words are two related statements: First, he says that \"\"the sign is arbitrary\"\". He considers the words that we use to indicate things and concepts could be any words — they are essentially just a consensus agreed upon by the speakers of a language and have no discernible pattern or relationship to the thing. Second, he says that, because words are arbitrary, they have meaning only in relation to other words. A dog is a dog because it is not a cat or a mouse or a horse, etc. These ideas have permeated the study of words since the 19th century. Types [ edit]Margaret Magnus is the author of a comprehensive book designed to explain phonosemantics to the lay reader: Gods in the Word.

Contents [ hide ]1 Union of two sets2 Algebraic properties3 Finite unions4 Arbitrary unions4.1 Notations5 See also6 Notes7 External links Union of two sets [ edit]The union of two sets A and B is the set of elements which are in A, in B, or in both A and B. In symbols,. [ 2]For example, if A = {1, 3, 5, 7} and B = {1, 2, 4, 6} then A ∪ B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}. A more elaborate example (involving two infinite sets) is: A = { x is an even integer larger than 1}B = { x is an odd integer larger than 1}As another example, the number 9 is not contained in the union of the set of prime numbers {2, 3, 5, 7, 11, …} and the set of even numbers {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, …}, because 9 is neither prime nor even. Sets cannot have duplicate elements, [2] [3] so the union of the sets {1, 2, 3} and {2, 3, 4} is {1, 2, 3, 4}. Multiple occurrences of identical elements have no effect on the cardinality of a set or its contents. Algebraic properties [ edit]Binary union is an associative operation; that is, for any sets A, B, and C,The operations can be performed in any order, and the parentheses may be omitted without ambiguity (i.e., either of the above can be expressed equivalently as A ∪ B ∪ C ). Similarly, union is commutative, so the sets can be written in any order. [ 4]The empty set is an identity element for the operation of union."

[ 2]Althoughcommon usage often is to refer to depictions of a five-pointed star as pentagrams, a distinction can be made. The outline of the pentagram or \"\"endless knot\"\" is a five-pointed star, but the five-pointed star itself does not necessarily represent the pentagram. While religious fundamentalists rarely make any distinction, some occultists and modern Wiccans will make even further distinction and define the pentacle as the pentagram inside a pentagon or circle. Historically, the pentacle referred to any amulet, often incorporating anhexagram. \"\" The words pentagram and pentacle (or pantacle) is not necessarily connected with the number 5.

The term complex impedance may be used interchangeably. Quantitatively, the impedance of a two-terminal circuit element is the ratio of the complex representation of a sinusoidal voltage between its terminals to the complex representation of the current flowing through it. [ 1]. In general, it depends upon the frequency of the sinusoidal voltage. Impedance extends the concept of resistance to AC circuits, and possesses both magnitude and phase, unlike resistance, which has only magnitude. When a circuit is driven with direct current (DC), there is no distinction between impedance and resistance; the latter can be thought of as impedance with zero phase angle. The notion of impedance is useful for performing AC analysis of electrical networks, because it allows relating sinusoidal voltages and currents by a simple linear law. In multiple port networks, the two-terminal definition of impedance is inadequate, but the complex voltages at the ports and the currents flowing through them are still linearly related by the impedance matrix. [ 2]Impedance is a complex number, with the same units as resistance, for which the SI unit is the ohm ( Ω ). Its symbol is usually Z, and it may be represented by writing its magnitude and phase in the form | Z | ∠θ."

Course Outline Course Objectives Study Schedule Student Evaluation Grading Criteria for Written Assignments Citations and References Plagiarism and Academic Misconduct Online Resources Language is a dual system of arbitrary vocal symbols used for human communication. The duality is due to the coexistence of two systems of language—the system of sounds and the system of meanings; thus, duality is a basic feature of language. Language is arbitrary because we cannot predict which features will be found in any particular language; language is symbolic because the words humans speak are associated with objects, ideas, and actions. In any study of language or linguistics, there are several basic distinctions that should be noted. Not only do these distinctions underlie the study of language, but to some extent they also underlie the study of culture. The first distinction is between description and prescription. Linguists describe rather than prescribe languages. In other words, linguists assume that human language cannot be evaluated or judged, and they are more interested in how language works or doesn’t work than in how language should be improved. The descriptive stance is very unnatural for a speaker of any language to adopt, as we all have definite ideas about what is “proper” within the languages we speak."

Is the language used strictly literal or is it a figure of speech? Our goal in understanding the Bible is not to prefer either literal meanings or figurative meanings.

"text": "By Michelle Singletary Columnist January 21, 2012Email the author If you look carefully — and you probably haven’t — at the fine print in your credit card agreement or in many of the consumer contracts you sign, you’ll probably find a provision that says if you have a dispute and want your day in court, you’re out of luck. Instead, you are forced to go to binding arbitration. Businesses love arbitration. Companies argue that it keeps legal costs down and can limit class-action lawsuits, which they warn can result in higher consumer prices. But consumer advocates say that such provisions are unfair because they deny consumers the chance to have their disputes settled by a judge or jury. Groups such as Public Citizen argue that people are forced to waive their legal rights because arbitration clauses are presented in contracts on a take-it-or-leave-it basis. In other words, if you want the service or credit card, you have no choice but to agree to settle a dispute in arbitration. Despite the complaints from consumer advocates, mandatory arbitration clauses aren’t going away. This month, the Supreme Court ruled 8 to 1 in favor of Compu Credit, overturning a decision by the U. S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit that cardholders could sue the company. The customers filed their class-action lawsuit after discovering that their Aspire Visa cards, which were marketed to people with poor credit scores, came with a lot of hidden fees."

Compensation for personal injury attorneys is different. They don’t require down payments or charge by the hour. They even pay money out of their own pockets to finance their clients’ cases.

"text": "What is an arbitration agreement?by Free Advice staff An arbitration agreement is a written contract in which two or more parties agree to settle a dispute outside of court. The arbitration agreement is ordinarily a clause in a larger contract. The dispute may be about the performance of a specific contract, a claim of unfair or illegal treatment in the workplace, a faulty product, among other various issues. People are free to agree to use arbitration concerning anything that they could otherwise resolve through legal proceedings. An arbitration agreement can be as simple as a provision in a contract stating that by signing that contract you are agreeing to arbitration in the case of any future disputes. For example, a business owner can ensure that potential dispute costs remain low by requiring anyone doing business with them to sign an agreement to arbitrate instead of litigate--to settle the matter out of court. In the case of more complicated business matters, a mandatory arbitration clause may be necessary. An arbitration provision in a contract might look like this:“Upon written request of either Buyer or Seller, any controversy or claim between or among the parties hereto including but not limited to those arising out of or relating to the Sale, any of the sale documents, or any related agreements or instruments executed in connection with the Sale, including any claim based on or arising from an alleged tort, shall be determined by binding arbitration in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act (or if not applicable, the applicable state law), the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, and the “Special Rules” set forth below unless both Lender and Borrower, in their respective sole discretion, agree in writing to mediate the dispute prior to submitting to binding arbitration. In the event of any inconsistency, the Special Rules shall control. Judgment upon any arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction."

Without a thorough, written construction contract you are living dangerously. If and when things things go wrong, who pays the extra costs is often hotly contested. At a bare minimum, the contract should clearly identify the contract parties (names, addresses, phone numbers), and define what work is to completed and where (Scope of Work), how the cost will be determined, and be signed and dated. Beyond these basics, all contracts should include contract clauses that address the following issues. Each is a “red flag” clause — potentially critical to the success of your project: SCOPE OF WORKFrom my perspective, this is the most important part of the contract. It consists of the drawn plans, if they exist, plus the written specifications describing the materials to be used and how to install them. When there’s a conflict between the drawn plans and the written specifications, the specs generally override the plans. Incomplete plans or specs are the source of many disputes.

Jason Henry for The New York Times Tara Zoumer thought she had found her dream job when she was hired at We Work, a $16 billion start-up that rents office space to young entrepreneurs. The walls were adorned with Pop Art. Neon light fixtures encouraged employees to “Hustle harder,” and there was beer on tap. “It was like walking onto a set of a movie,” Ms. Zoumer said. But shortly after she became an associate community manager in We Work’s office in Berkeley, Calif., reality set in. Ms. Zoumer said she was feeling pinched because her annual salary was only $42,000, a sum that, on some weeks, left her without money to ride the subway. She said she thought many of her duties — leading tours for prospective tenants, tidying up, answering phones and changing the kegs — were more suited to an hourly wage with a possibility for overtime. Ms. Zoumer tried to enlist colleagues to file what she hoped would be a class-action lawsuit to fight for overtime pay. But the company had instituted a policy that could force employees to ultimately resolve disputes through arbitration instead of the courts, which essentially shut down Ms. Zoumer’s lawsuit, since arbitration bars individuals from joining in a class action."

Traditionally, arbitration clauses have featured in collective bargaining agreements and contracts negotiated between management and unionized labor. Increasingly, individual employment contracts contain arbitration clauses. Arbitration Arbitration is a formal, structured process. Parties can only enter into arbitration if they both consent to the process or if they have signed a contract with an arbitration clause. The aggrieved party sets out his claim in writing and the other party responds. A neutral arbitrator will then hear submissions from both parties in order to make a decision."

"text": "Arbitration Law and Legal Definition Arbitration is an alternative means of settling a dispute by impartial persons without proceeding to a court trial. It is sometimes preferred as a means of settling a matter in order to avoid the expense, delay, and acrimony of litigation. There is no discovery and there are simplified rules of evidence in arbitration. The arbitrator or arbitrators are selected directly by the parties or are chosen in accordance with the terms of a contract in which the parties have agreed to use a court-ordered arbitrator or an arbitrator from the American Arbitration Association. If there is no contract, usually each party chooses an arbitrator and the two arbitrators select a third to comprise the panel. When parties submit to arbitration, they agree to be bound by and comply with the arbitrators' decision. The arbitrators' decision is given after an informal proceeding where each side presents evidence and witnesses. Arbitration hearings usually last only a few hours and the opinions are not public record. Arbitration has long been used in labor, construction, and securities regulation, but is now gaining popularity in other business disputes. Title 9 of the U. S. Code establishes Federal law supporting arbitration."

"text": "\"January 1998 Volume 20 Number 1Contracts: A Lawyer's Viewby Tom Case\"\"A verbal agreement isn't worth the paper it's written on. \"\" attributed to Samuel Goldwyn In recognition of Samuel Goldwyn's wisdom, you probably have gone to the trouble of drafting a written contract you use for most of your conservation work. Many of you cribbed parts of it from other conservators' contracts, adding your own touches. Those of you with sufficient resources or neuroses consulted a lawyer. After you finalized your contract, you undoubtedly stopped thinking about why you need one, and why some of those legalistic sounding clauses even have to be there. The previous article provides a good discussion of all the basic terms that should be included in a conservator's contract. My intent is to review why it's important to have a written contract and the practical meaning of those legalistic clauses, from the viewpoint of a litigator. A \"\"contract,\"\" we learned the first day of law school, is an agreement that is legally enforceable. After that, it got more complicated. [ Note: Although weighty treatises have been written on what makes an agreement legally enforceable, one way to look at it is that the parties must agree on sufficiently definite terms with some evidence that they meant it to be enforceable (for business contracts, this is usually an agreement to pay money)."

Arbitration is a voluntary agreement by two or more individuals and/or entities under the express terms of a contract or otherwise to submit a claim or issue of disagreement to a neutral third party for binding decision. What is Mediation? Mediation is a process whereby the parties voluntarily agree to submit their dispute and/or disagreement to a neutral third party in an effort to settle the matter in lieu of a lawsuit and/or litigation. How does Arbitration differ from Mediation? An Arbitrator’s decision is legally enforceable. An Arbitrator is vested with powers comparable to that of a Judge. In Mediation, the Mediator is the facilitator, meaning a person who tries to bring the parties closer to settlement but has no legal authority to make a binding decision or to enforce his/her decision. Can you explain the Arbitration process?"

While not everyone needs a dietary supplement, they can be of great value if you are lacking nutrients in your diet. As vegetarians, I am specifically talking about B12, calcium, iron, and vitamin D. YES. I know, you can find these products in whole foods (except for B12) and don’t need to rely on supplements, but does your diet stack up? Personally, while I think I have a pretty good intake, I do take B12 and occasional calcium, D, and Omega-3. For me, supplements are just that- meant to supplement healthy eating, not substitutes for a healthy diet. We still can’t eat mac and cheese all day, pop a multi and call it a day. If you are one for taking supplements, do you know the source & purity? A lot of commercial supplements are junk, a sea of drugstore choices that can be pretty confusing if you’re not sure what you are looking for. Whenever I evaluate nutrient supplements, I scan the product to see where it’s derived from."

"text": "\"Chapter IDietary Supplement Health And Education Act of 1994The Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (DSHEA, or the Act) ( Appendix A) was enacted by Congress following public debate concerning the importance of dietary supplements in promoting health, the need for consumers to have access to current and accurate information about supplements, and controversy over the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) regulatory approach to this product category. Signing DSHEA into law on October 25, 1994, President Clinton said: After several years of intense efforts, manufacturers, experts in nutrition, and legislators, acting in a conscientious alliance with consumers at the grassroots level, have moved successfully to bring common sense to the treatment of dietary supplements under regulation and law. ( 12)The issues and debates that led to the passage of DSHEA have been discussed by a number of authors (7,88,90,122-125,136). Despite extensive public debate during the consideration of DSHEA, the official legislative history for the Act is limited (134) (see Chapter I Endnote ). DSHEA amends the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act of 1938 (FDCA) to alter the way dietary supplements are regulated and labeled. This chapter provides an overview of the provisions of DSHEA and discusses the scope of this report. MAJOR PROVISIONSThe following provisions of DSHEA are contained in the 13 sections of the Act ( Appendix A ).1. Short Title, Reference, Table of Contents Section 1 provides introductory information on the Act.2. Congressional Findings In Section 2 of DSHEA, Congress identifies 15 findings that established the rationale for DSHEA and that were meant to establish a conceptual framework for Federal regulatory policy regarding dietary supplements. Integral to the legislative changes was Congress' finding that \"\"improving the health status of United States citizens ranks at the top of the national priorities of the Federal government."

But overall, the side effects of nutritional supplements tend to be minimal, both in frequency and severity. This is especially the case with vitamin side effects. One of the biggest problems with dietary supplements and risks are not the actual, active ingredients themselves. No, the real issue are toxic contaminants, which are quite frequently contained in nutritional supplements, representing one of the more serious risks of taking dietary supplements. Why supplement adulteration? It is because the quality of most health supplements in the United States is only low-to-mediocre, due to a weak regulatory framework (as discussed in the 3-part article on \"\"Exploring The Shady World Of Dietary Supplement Regulation\"\". PART 1: Dietary Supplement Regulation -Is Supplement Quality Assured? ).

Supplements, by definition, supplement your diet and should never take the place of healthy food choices. Anyone can take a dietary supplement, but you should always consult with your doctor, as some supplements can react adversely with medications. There are three main types of dietary supplements, including herbal supplements, vitamin and mineral supplements, and probiotic supplements. But there are some dietary supplements that are harmful and should be avoided at all times. Although a dietary supplement must be proven to be unsafe before it can be removed from stores, it is important to make sure your doctor knows about any supplements you are taking. What are dietary supplements? Dietary supplements are defined as a consumable product that supplements your food intake. In addition to being labeled as a dietary supplement, they must have at least one vitamin, mineral, amino acid, or natural herb, and they must be available to be easily consumed as a tablet, pill, liquid, or mixable powder."

"text": "\"Published October 17, 2008complementary and alternative medicine The FDA, Vitamins, and the Dietary Supplement Industry W. Steven Pray, Ph D, DPh Bernhardt Professor of Nonprescription Drugs and Devices College of Pharmacy Southwestern Oklahoma State University Weatherford, Oklahoma US Pharm. 2008;33 (10):10-15. A look at the FDA and regulation of vitamins in the United States is revealing for the pharmacist. Patients and even pharmacists may assume that some governmental agency has vast regulatory powers to control advertising and marketing of vitamins and other dietary supplements, but this is clearly not the case. FDA Regulation (1941–1973)The FDA established regulations in 1941 to govern labeling of vitamins, establishing a Minimum Daily Requirement for each vitamin, but the agency did not restrict the amount of a vitamin allowed in supplements at that time. 1 As a result, some unscrupulous manufacturers and marketers took advantage of the situation to make outlandish claims for vitamins and other dietary supplements. In many cases, the claims included incorrect information alleging that megadoses of vitamins were safe and more effective than the normal doses. The FDA recognized the medical dangers of these claims, but was only able to move against the manufacturers and marketers on a case-by-case basis under the outdated and incomplete 1941 regulations. The unwieldy case-by-case process would have consumed far too much time and resources, given the multiplicity of offenders. Thus, the FDA realized that the solution was to establish stronger regulations that would help the agency control the burgeoning national problem."

"text": "DMAA in Dietary Supplements Share Tweet Linkedin Pin it Email Print July 16, 2013DMAA, also known as 1,3-dimethylamylamine, methylhexanamine or geranium extract, is an ingredient found illegally in some dietary supplements and often touted as a “natural” stimulant. DMAA, especially in combination with other ingredients such as caffeine, can be a health risk to consumers. Ingestion of DMAA can elevate blood pressure and lead to cardiovascular problems ranging from shortness of breath and tightening in the chest to heart attack. Dietary supplements containing DMAA are illegal and FDA is doing everything within its authority to remove these products from the market. In 2012, FDA issued warning letters to companies notifying them products with DMAA need to be taken off the market or reformulated to remove this substance. Most companies warned are no longer distributing products with DMAA. While FDA is working to get these products off the market, consumers should not buy or use any dietary supplement product containing DMAA. On July 2, 2013, as a result of follow-up legal action by FDA, the dietary supplement firm USPlabs voluntarily destroyed its DMAA-containing products located at its facility in Dallas, Texas. The products - USPlab's Oxy Elite Pro and Jack3d - are estimated to have been worth more than $8 million at the retail level. USPlabs has agreed to stop manufacturing dietary supplements containing DMAA."

With so many dietary supplements available and so many claims made about their health benefits, how can you decide whether a supplement is safe or useful? This fact sheet provides a general overview of dietary supplements, discusses safety considerations, and suggests sources for additional information. Key Points Dietary supplements contain a variety of ingredients, such as vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and herbs or other botanicals. Research has confirmed health benefits of some dietary supplements but not others. To use dietary supplements safely, read and follow the label instructions, and recognize that “natural” does not always mean “safe.” Be aware that an herbal supplement may contain dozens of compounds and that all of its ingredients may not be known. Some dietary supplements may interact with medications or pose risks if you have medical problems or are going to have surgery. Most dietary supplements have not been tested in pregnant women, nursing mothers, or children. The U. S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates dietary supplements, but the regulations for dietary supplements are different and less strict than those for prescription or over-the-counter drugs."

Related Nintendo’s 2DS Gaming ‘Gablet’ Isn’t an i Pad Killer, Thank Goodness Happy 30th, Nintendo Famicom: Maybe You Didn’t Save the Industry, but You Set the High-Water Mark Email Print Share Follow @techland In hopes of ramping up Wii U sales momentum, Nintendo finally dropped the price of the Wii U Deluxe from $350 to $300 this week, bringing the only game console that ships with a dedicated gaming tablet in line with what you’d pay for a new PS3 or Xbox 360, while putting a bit more distance between the system and Sony ‘s upcoming PS4 ($400) or Microsoft ‘s Xbox One ($500), both due in November. Should you buy one? Let’s step through a few pros and cons.$300 still looks pricey to me. The Wii cost $250 at launch and its price fell from there (it’s now in the $130-$140 range). The Wii U’s significantly higher price, according to Nintendo, has to do with the Wii U Game Pad. And yet Nintendo’s never really made the case for that Game Pad to the sort of consumers who snatched up the Wii in droves. I suspect so-called casual gamers still don’t understand what’s so great about it or what it even does — it lacks the grab-and-go simplicity of the Wii’s motion controls — while more traditional gamers probably look at the tablet as an overpriced toy, inclined to view the second screen as a novelty mechanic when playing games on their TVs."

"text": "\"Anatomy of the cerebellum From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Vestibulocerebellum)navigation search This article is about the anatomy of the Cerebellum. For function and physiology, see Cerebellum. Cerebellum Drawing of the human brain, showing cerebellum and pons Vertical midline cross-section of the human cerebellum, showing folding pattern of the cortex, and interior structures Details Part of Metencephalon Artery SCA, AICA, PICAVein superior, inferior Identifiers Me SH D002531Neuro Lex ID birnlex_1489TA A14.1.07.001FMA 67944Anatomical terms of neuroanatomy [ edit on Wikidata]The anatomy of the cerebellum can be viewed at three levels. At the level of gross anatomy, the cerebellum consists of a tightly folded and crumpled layer of cortex, with white matter underneath, several deep nuclei embedded in the white matter, and a fluid-filled ventricle in the middle. At the intermediate level, the cerebellum and its auxiliary structures can be broken down into several hundred or thousand independently functioning modules or \"\"microzones\"\". At the microscopic level, each module consists of the same small set of neuronal elements, laid out with a highly stereotyped geometry.

It is separated from the overlying cerebrum by a layer of tough dura mater; all of its connections with other parts of the brain travel through the pons. Anatomists classify the cerebellum as part of the metencephalon, which also includes the pons; the metencephalon in turn is the upper part of the rhombencephalon or \"\"hindbrain\"\". Like the cerebral cortex, the cerebellum is divided into two hemispheres; it also contains a narrow midline zone called the vermis."

Coconut water is extracted from young, green coconuts, when the proportion of water to meat is highest. 3.

"text": "Cerebellar infarction is a relatively uncommon subtype of ischaemic stroke . It may involve any of the three arteries supplying the cerebellum:superior cerebellar artery (SCA): superior cerebellar arterial infarctanterior inferior cerebellar artery (AICA): anterior inferior cerebellar arterial infarctposterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA): posterior inferior cerebellar arterial infarct Epidemiology Cerebellar infarcts account for ~2% (range 1.5-2.3%) of all cerebral infarction 1-2. However, their true incidence may be much higher, since most cerebellar infarcts are small and may remain unrecognised. 10-12Clinical presentation Many of the symptoms of cerebellar infarction are non-specific, such as nausea, vomiting, dizziness, unsteadiness and headache, and the clinical diagnosis relies on focused neurological examination and a reasonable index of suspicion. Examination findings include incoordination, ataxia and horizontal nystagmus. Patients may also present with altered conscious state or coma. Small cerebellar infarcts frequently only present as an incidental finding on imaging studies after healing. 11-12 In the symptomatic stage, they may remain unrecognized because they only present with minor or non-specific clinical findings, because MRI is not performed, or because they may be overlooked on MRI, especially if performed beyond the acute stage of restricted diffusion. 9Radiographic features Cerebellar infarcts tend to involve the cerebellar cortex. 9-10 While larger cerebellar infarcts in general involve the cerebellar cortex with a varying amount of adjacent white matter ('arbor vitae'), most small cerebellar infarcts involve the cerebellar cortex in isolation, thus with sparing of white matter."

It does such a good job of nourishing the growing child in the womb and yet in modern hospitals it is regarded as nothing more than \"\"medical waste\"\" after it is born. Many other cultures, however, honor the placenta, calling it the baby's knapsack, the baby's first clothes or even the baby's spirit protector. Some cultures ceremonially bury the placenta so that the child will remain connected to the land and to the community. Others use the placenta to make medicines that will restore the mother's vitality postpartum or help return the baby to a state of balance during times of transition. One way that women today can bring back the tradition of honor and gratitude toward the placenta is to make artistically beautiful prints with it. As a placenta services provider, I offer placenta print making to all of my clients along with placenta encapsulation and other placenta services. It is simple and can be done alone or in conjunction with any other placenta medicine or tradition. Mothers are thrilled with the beautiful images created by their own placenta. Some families frame the \"\"tree of life\"\" prints and proudly display them in their home, while others save them along with baby's first hair cutting or first tooth."

Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) approval of Vimizim for treating mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA (MPS IVA), Bio Marin Pharmaceutical Inc. ( BMRN - Free Report ) announced that it expects its total revenues in 2014 to increase by more than 20% over 2013 levels ($548.5 million). The biopharmaceutical company expects 2014 revenues in the range of $650–$680 million. Bio Marin expects 2014 Vimizim sales in the range of $60–$70 million. Vimizim is the fifth member of Bio Marin’s product portfolio. The other marketed products of the company are Naglazyme, Kuvan, Aldurazyme and Firdapse. Bio Marin co-markets Aldurazyme with Sanofi ( SNY - Free Report ) . The company is looking to get Vimizim approved in other markets as well including the EU. Bio Marin expects an opinion from the European Medicines Agency’s (EMA) Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) on Vimizim shortly. Within a couple of months of the CHMP’s opinion, a final decision from the EC should be out. European approval of the drug would boost its sales potential as the U. S. market accounts for only approximately 15% of the total MPS IVA market according to the company."

"text": "A photo taken on November 27, 2012 shows a sample of a plant before a biochemical analysis at the INRA Nancy (National Institute of Agronomic Research) in Champenoux. Jean-Christophe Verhaegen—AFP/Getty Images By Kevin Kelleher June 25, 2015To understand why some investors are growing nervous about the biotech sector, consider the recent IPO of Axovant Sciences. The company was founded last October, isn’t profitable, and has already racked up a $21 million loss. Its CEO has much more experience with hedge funds than he does with biotech startups. Axovant has only one product candidate, an Alzheimer drug it bought from Glaxo Smith Kline last December after it was tested on 1,250 patients in 13 trials and then stalled in development. Two weeks ago, Axovant went public in an offering that raised $315 million. Axovant, which paid $5 million for the Alzheimer’s drug, says it needs the cash because it will have to pay Glaxo as much as $160 million more if the drug makes it to market. Incredibly, the stock doubled on its first day to $31 a share, but has since fallen by nearly a third of that peak value. And it could well fall further. But that’s not what worries longtime observers of the biotech sector."

Now, featured as the cover story on Forbes’ Sept. 28 issue, Ramaswamy looks to do it again. ( Twitter/Forbes magazine photo)Indian American entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, 30, shocked a lot of people when he turned $5 million into $3 billion with Axovant Sciences’ initial public offering. Now, as featured in the Sept. 28 cover story for Forbes Magazine, Ramaswamy is poised to repeat history. In June, Ramaswamy was at the forefront of the biggest IPO in the history of the American biotechnology industry. The Bermuda-based company, with offices also in New York, has just one product: a dementia drug to treat Alzheimer’s. Axovant was formed eight months prior to the IPO and raised roughly $360 million to develop the drug that was essentially abandoned by Glaxo Smith Kline. By the end of the first day on the New York Stock Exchange, Axovant had a market capitalization of about $3 billion. Ramaswamy had purchased the drug from Glaxo for $5 million. A graduate of Harvard College with an A. B. in biology and the recipient of a law degree from Yale Law School, Ramaswamy is a former hedge fund partner."

"text": "\"What is BIOPHARMA? BIOPHARMA: Biopharmaceuticals Products in the U. S. Market is a fully integrated compilation of public domain information concerning biopharmaceutical products in the U. S. market. Emphasis is on coverage of products' biotechnology and commercial aspects (composition, manufacture, regulatory, patents/tech. transfer, marketing, etc. ), rather than medical/use aspects for which there are a large number of other sources, including many on the Internet. What were the goals of BIOPHARMA? ? Goals which I believe have met include development of:the best available information resource concerning biopharmaceutical products (other than their medical/use aspects), and the only resource covering their biotechnology and commercial aspectsthe best available descriptions of what these products area high quality registry/authority file of product and active agent nomenclaturethe best available descriptions of product manufacturinguntangling of the complex corporate relationships and history of these products/technologiesthe best available descriptions of product-related patents and technology transfersthe most extensive collection of FDA approvals and related information (far better than what FDA has available)High qualty, controlled indexing providing an unmatched level of subject access to biopharmaceuticals What makes BIOPHARMA unique? No other resource takes product-centric approach to describing biopharmaceuticals. Most available biotechnology directories and sources concentrate on companies, and essentially all other product information sources solely concentrate on medical/use aspects. Many BIOPHARMA users are surprized at how much information they have been missing."

Chiltern is a major partner of Lab Corp, serving the top 20 biopharma segments and helping the company focus on the high-growth emerging and mid-market biopharma segments. Following this takeover, the company's Covance Drug Development reported strong growth in the third quarter after lying low for several quarters. This apart, effective organic flourish and a favorable foreign currency translation boosted the segment's performance during the period."

Targets DNA synthesis [1] (Cell-free assay)In vitro Daptomycin (5 μg/ml) reduces cell viability by >99% and membrane potential by >90% within 30 min in Staphylococcus aureus. Daptomycin exhibits rapid in vitro bactericidal activity against clinically significant strains of gram-positive pathogens including hemolytic streptococci, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, and vancomycin-resistant enterococci. Daptomycin acts at the cytoplasmic membrane of susceptible bacteria (8), as demonstrated by binding and fractionation studies. Daptomycin also differs from that of some antimicrobial peptides (e.g., human neutrophil peptide 1) that are capable of rapid depolarization of the cytoplasmic membrane but do not induce cell death for 1 hour to 2 hours. Daptomycin inserts into the cytoplasmic membrane of bacteria, as indicated by whole-cell and artificial membrane studies. [ 1] Daptomycin demonstrates greater bactericidal activity than all other drugs tested, killing ≥3 log CFU/ml by 8 hours."

S. Niemiec, G. R. Ahrens, S. Willits, and D. E. Hibbs. 1995. Research Contribution 8. Oregon State University, Forest Research Laboratory General Characteristics Pacific madrone is one of the largest of about 14 species of Arbutus in the world, and one of the two Arbutus species in North America. Pacific madrone is a broadleaved evergreen tree and a member of the heath family (Ericaceae). It is distinguished by its smooth trunk, orange-red deciduous bark, white flowers, and red berries. Size, Longevity, and Form Pacific madrones attain heights of 80 to 125 ft and diameters of 24 to 48 in. The largest trees may be as much as 400 years old; ages of 200 to 250 years have been counted. Pacific madrone can develop a clear, straight bole under good conditions in forest stands, particularly in canyons and dense stands. Open-grown individuals and trees growing on lower quality sites often have multiple stems, which originate from sprouts or root burls that often are J-shaped and forked."

Many investors, however, have yet to “light up.” Some hesitate from adding marijuana stocks to their portfolio on apprehensions that pot companies are involved in scams or that it’s still deemed illegal by the federal government. Let’s not forget that this market has turned into a big money-maker. Not only is it one of the fastest growing industries in the U. S., but it also received a major boost after the 2016 election, where marijuana was declared legal for recreational and medical purposes in seven additional states. Marijuana sales have the potential to greatly add to the government’s treasury as well, and it will be immensely helpful in medical fields. Nowadays, it is also easier for banks for provide services for legal marijuana businesses. Banking on this optimism, we have selected the largest, most stable, and legal cannabis related companies that will rake in high returns for you. Focus on Legalization When Americans headed to the polls during the last presidential election, nine states—Arizona, California, Maine, Massachusetts, Nevada, Arkansas, Florida, and North Dakota—were set to vote on medical and recreational cannabis initiatives. Gallup polls ahead of the election showed that voters backing full legalization soared from a meager 12% in 1969 to 60% in recent times."

"text": "Lab Corp Completes $1.2-Billion Chiltern Buyout, Boosts CROSeptember 04, 2017, 08:06:00 AM EDT By Zacks Equity Research, Zacks.com Shutterstock photo Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings LH or Lab Corp recently announced the successful closure of the acquisition of Chiltern International Group Limited, a specialty CRO (contract research organization). Earlier, the company had entered into a definitive agreement with Chiltern's shareholders to purchase the company for an all-cash transaction valued at roughly $1.2 billion. Lab Corp expects Chiltern to generate 2017 revenues of roughly $550 million and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization of around $95 million. Excluding transaction related one-time costs and cost synergies, Lab Corp expects this deal to boost adjusted earnings and free cash flow in the first year and help earn cost of capital by the third year. Post acquisition, Chiltern will form part of Lab Corp's Covance Drug Development segment. Per management, Chiltern will be a major partner serving the top 20 biopharma segments and helping Lab Corp focus on the high-growth emerging and mid-market biopharma segments. Per Lab Corp, the buyout is expected to strengthen its position in innovative diagnostics and drug development solutions. We encouragingly note that the new combined entity will have approximately 11,100 employees in the Americas - 7,100 in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and 2,400 in the Asia Pacific. Lab Corp has been consistently on the headlines owing to the Chiltern buyout deal. Earlier, the company had announced that the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has granted its request for early termination of the waiting period for Chiltern's buyout under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (HSR Act)."

"text": "That coughing and wheezing you hear from the next office is a sign that it's flu season once again. That means it's time to get your flu shot. While nobody wants to get sick, getting influenza has some serious financial repercussions outside of a fever and running nose. Hearing what those costs entail should make you think twice about not being vaccinated this year. Here is a breakdown of the opportunity costs of getting the flu versus getting the proper vaccine. Big Time Costs down the Chain Most people are skeptical about getting an annual flu vaccine. After all, the vaccine is a cocktail of most likely influenza virus strains that will be most prevalent during the flu season. It's an educated calculation, so the vaccine is not a guarantee that you won't get the flu. Also, some people feel healthy and believe that their chance of contracting the flu is minimal. Then there are stories of how the flu shot gave someone the flu or how it simply does not work."

"text": "\"1 / 12A third of adults who eat at fast-food restaurants three or more times a week are obese, a study published in the journal Preventing Chronic Disease found — not surprising given the preponderance of high-fat, high-calorie, and high-salt menu items. But at almost every chain restaurant, there are smart choices to be made. An ideal meal that won’t derail your diet is a plate that’s half fresh fruits or vegetables, a quarter lean protein, and a quarter whole grains, says Kristi King, RD, a clinical dietitian at Texas Children’s Hospital in Houston. “ Look for grilled, baked or broiled meats versus fried,” King says, and then add a vegetable option like a side salad and apple slices or a fruit salad. If you’re looking for a few healthy standbys to order every time you eat out, try these.2 / 12 Mc Donald's Grilled Chicken Classic Sandwich350 calories9 g fat28 g protein820 mg sodium42 g carbohydrates3 g fiber8 g sugar As fast-food options go, grilled chicken sandwiches generally make better healthy lunches than hamburger patties. Pair yours with a salad and light dressing and low-fat milk or water to drink. The downside is the sodium in this sandwich might be too high if you have high blood pressure or diabetes, points out Jim White, RD, founder of Jim White Fitness and Nutrition Studios in Virginia Beach, Va. \"\"While the calories may be below 500, the problems arise with the high levels of sodium,\"\" he says. \"\" These lunches may not expand the waistline, but they will cause an elevation in blood pressure. \"\" 3 / 12 Mc Donald's Grilled Chicken Ranch Snack Wrap270 calories12 grams fat16 g protein700 mg sodium25 g carbohydrates1 g fiber2 g sugar The size of Mc Donald’s snack wraps are just right — as long as you order them grilled and not fried, King says.

"text": "\"Aug 27, 2014Review: Arby's - Gyro Arby's Gyros (pronounced \"\"year-oh\"\" and not \"\"guy-ro\"\") come with either thin-sliced roast turkey or beef along with Greek seasoning, tzatziki sauce, sliced red onions, shredded lettuce, and sliced tomatoes, folded inside of a pita. I had a coupon where they were two for $6 so I got one with turkey and one with beef. While they're calling these \"\"gyros,\"\" they're more like flatbread or pita sandwiches, since the essence of the gyro--the spit-roasted shaved meat--is missing. Still, they add some variety and a different flavor profile to the menu while they're around. The gyros were a lot bigger than I thought they'd be (you can see, they dwarf the quarter in the picture above) and there was a good amount of meat in them. There was a bit more meat to the beef one than the turkey one, although there wasn't any lack of coverage inside except maybe at the very ends. Between the turkey and the beef, both were pretty salty (as is typical of deli meats), but the turkey worked better with the seasoning for me. It's strange because I usually prefer Arby's roast beef over their turkey. What makes Arby's Gyro taste different from your typical Arby's sandwich is the Greek seasoning and the tzatziki. Fortunately, they do a fine job, with an herby flavor from the seasoning and a cool, creaminess from the tzatziki (although it's doesn't quite hit that yogurt-cucumber combination)."

"text": "Sep 1, 2010Review: Arby's - Jr. Roast Beef The Arby's Jr. Roast Beef is exactly that: a smaller version of the quintessential Arby's sandwich. Like the regular Roast Beef, it features Arby's signature thin-sliced, roast beef served on a toasted sesame seed bun. Of course, the smaller version also comes at a smaller price at $1. Basically, if you like Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich, you'll like the Jr. Roast Beef. I find it a bit plain with just roast beef and the bun. Fortunately, Arby's has Horsey sauce, a mild horseradish mayo to liven up your Jr. Roast Beef. For those of you who don't like the taste of horseradish there's also the BBQ-ish Arby's sauce. I went with the Arby's sauce as a kid, but now it's Horsey sauce all the way. The thing I don't like about Arby's roast beef is how very thin they cut it. It makes it taste and feel like deli cut supermarket roast beef."

"text": "\"1 / 12A third of adults who eat at fast-food restaurants three or more times a week are obese, a study published in the journal Preventing Chronic Disease found — not surprising given the preponderance of high-fat, high-calorie, and high-salt menu items. But at almost every chain restaurant, there are smart choices to be made. An ideal meal that won’t derail your diet is a plate that’s half fresh fruits or vegetables, a quarter lean protein, and a quarter whole grains, says Kristi King, RD, a clinical dietitian at Texas Children’s Hospital in Houston. “ Look for grilled, baked or broiled meats versus fried,” King says, and then add a vegetable option like a side salad and apple slices or a fruit salad. If you’re looking for a few healthy standbys to order every time you eat out, try these.2 / 12 Mc Donald's Grilled Chicken Classic Sandwich350 calories9 g fat28 g protein820 mg sodium42 g carbohydrates3 g fiber8 g sugar As fast-food options go, grilled chicken sandwiches generally make better healthy lunches than hamburger patties. Pair yours with a salad and light dressing and low-fat milk or water to drink. The downside is the sodium in this sandwich might be too high if you have high blood pressure or diabetes, points out Jim White, RD, founder of Jim White Fitness and Nutrition Studios in Virginia Beach, Va. \"\"While the calories may be below 500, the problems arise with the high levels of sodium,\"\" he says. \"\" These lunches may not expand the waistline, but they will cause an elevation in blood pressure. \"\" 3 / 12 Mc Donald's Grilled Chicken Ranch Snack Wrap270 calories12 grams fat16 g protein700 mg sodium25 g carbohydrates1 g fiber2 g sugar The size of Mc Donald’s snack wraps are just right — as long as you order them grilled and not fried, King says.

"text": "\"Arby's Smokehouse Brisket Sandwich Arby's Breaking News: Arby's Smokehouse Brisket Is Kind of Really Food Malcolm Bedell | October 18, 2013 | 6:00am Facebook Twitteremail Print Article A AWe're not even going to bury the lede on this one, you guys: The new Arby's Smokehouse Brisket Sandwich is kind of friggin' awesome. What may be most impressive here, though, is not just that Arby's has managed to assemble a sandwich that is actually delicious and tastes at least somewhat like food, but the way in which the D-list chain seems to be successfully reinventing its entire menu, one item at a time. Let's back up for just a moment. Arby's was built on a simple foundation: quick-service hot roast beef sandwiches, piled impossibly high and artfully in the corporate menu photography. But not roast beef like you might \"\"buy in a store\"\" or \"\"cut off a cow's body.\"\" Instead, Arby's roast beef was like something that had been grown in vats of green liquid from the future: weirdly gray, wet and too smooth, bearing no resemblance to anything that might have ever been alive. The dining public seemed to agree; the last major expansion of Arby's was in the 1970s, when the chain opened new restaurants at the rate of 50 per year. Now, many people's most familiar image of an Arby's is one of a restaurant going out of business, the windows boarded up, the Horsey Sauce hosed out and the jaunty lasso hat sign taken down. It was getting increasingly tricky to see how Arby's could continue to fit in with the modern-day fast food landscape, where non-hamburger options are getting fewer and farther between. Until now."

"text": "\"56 Juicy Facts about Fast Food By Karin Lehnardt, Senior Writer Published September 9, 2016In 1970, Americans spent about $6 billion on fast food. In 2014, the spending rose to nearly 200 billion. By 2020, the number is expected to be over $223 billion. [ 6] [8]Proportionally, hash browns have more fat and calories than a cheeseburger or Big Mac. [ 3]During the early 1900s, the hamburger was thought to be polluted, unsafe to eat, and food for the poor. Street carts, not restaurants, typically served them. [ 6]Late comedian and talk-show host Johnny Carson labeled the hamburger the \"\"Mc Clog the Artery.\"\" [ 6]Children who regularly eat fast food do worse in school than their peers Every month, approximately nine out of 10 American children visit a Mc Donald’s restaurant. [ 7]At some fast food chains, both in U. S. and in other countries, managers are rewarded bonuses when they reduce employee wages to save money. [ 9]To keep salaries low, Mc Donald’s and other fast food chains have intentionally engaged in anti-union activities. ["

"text": "\"Sticking to a low-carb diet when dining out can be hard, especially at fast-food restaurants. That's because these meals are often based on bread, tortillas and other high-carb items. Fortunately, most fast-food restaurants offer some good low-carb options. In addition, a number of items can easily be modified for a low-carb lifestyle. Here are 14 delicious fast foods you can eat while on a low-carb diet.1. Sub in a Tub Submarine sandwiches are very high in carbs. A typical sub has at least 50 grams of carbs, most of which come from the bun. Ordering your sub prepared \"\"in a tub\"\" (in a bowl or container), rather than on a bun, can save you more than 40 grams of carbs. Here are the carb counts for some of the best sub-in-a-tub options at a popular US-based sub shop called Jersey Mike's: Turkey breast and provolone: 8 grams of carbs, 1 of which is fiber. Club supreme: 11 grams of carbs, 2 of which are fiber."

"text": "Re-branding can be an intimidating process for major businesses that have an established consumer base, especially when those changes involve updates to a company’s logo. Despite the risk of distancing loyal customers, many major companies have undergone successful re-branding throughout the last few decades. However, some logo evolutions include designs that never should have happened. The Arby’s logo is a prime example of what not to do and how to come back from a logo design disaster. Meet Arby’s The year was 1964, and America was hungry for more than just a burger. Arby’s answered that call by providing their now famous roast beef sandwiches, first in Ohio and then throughout the country. Perhaps spurred by the popularity of westerns at the time, the original Arby’s logo was a giant cowboy hat outlining big, blocky slab-serif letters that proclaimed, “Arby’s Roast Beef Sandwich is Delicious. ”The logo had charisma and charm, but in 1975, as more restaurants were popping up, it was time for a change. The logo still held the classic cowboy hat outline, but the text was shortened to “Arby’s. ”This designed reigned from 1975 to 2012 and is still how many people associate with the brand."

The Raffel’s owned a restaurant equipment business and saw a need for a fast food chain that served something other than hamburgers. The first restaurant served roast beef sandwiches, chips, and soda. The brothers originally wanted to call their restaurant “Big Tex” but discovered the name was taken, so they settled for their initial’s of R. B and came up with Arby’s. In 1965, the first franchise opened in Akron, Ohio. In 1968, the first restaurants were opened outside of Ohio in Pittsburgh and Detroit. Arby’s expanded at a store per week pace during the 1970s. New menu items like the Beef N’ Cheddar and Jamocha Shakes were also added. By 1981, there were 1000 locations."

"text": "\"Hollis Johnson Arby's marketing plan is all about meat — and sales are soaring. \"\" In the last two years, Arby's has kind of transformed itself as a place to get these great meats you can't get anywhere else in QSR,\"\" Arby's CMO Rob Lynch recently told Business Insider. In November, the company reached 20 consecutive quarters of same-stores sales growth, reporting a 9.6% increase in same-store sales in the US in the third quarter. However, certain people — especially those familiar with a previous iteration of the chain — still question the company's culinary credentials. Rumors such as the one that Arby's serves \"\" liquid meat \"\" have plagued the company for years and, as a quick Twitter search will reveal, are still floating around on social media. So Business Insider decided find out if there was any truth behind the rumors with a behind-the-scenes look at how the sausage — or roast beef — gets made at Arby's new Manhattan location. View As: One Page Slides The new Manhattan location uses Arby's new design, which is scheduled to be rolled out at 60 new restaurants and 160 remodeled locations this year. In addition to a sleek, modern seating area, the new design allows a more open kitchen, making it the perfect opportunity for Business Insider to sneak behind the scenes. Hollis Johnson Arby's meat is sourced from a wide variety of locations. Some meat arrives ready to slice and serve, such as the brisket, has already been smoked for 13-plus hours at a smokehouse in Texas."

"text": "\"Aug 27, 2014Review: Arby's - Gyro Arby's Gyros (pronounced \"\"year-oh\"\" and not \"\"guy-ro\"\") come with either thin-sliced roast turkey or beef along with Greek seasoning, tzatziki sauce, sliced red onions, shredded lettuce, and sliced tomatoes, folded inside of a pita. I had a coupon where they were two for $6 so I got one with turkey and one with beef. While they're calling these \"\"gyros,\"\" they're more like flatbread or pita sandwiches, since the essence of the gyro--the spit-roasted shaved meat--is missing. Still, they add some variety and a different flavor profile to the menu while they're around. The gyros were a lot bigger than I thought they'd be (you can see, they dwarf the quarter in the picture above) and there was a good amount of meat in them. There was a bit more meat to the beef one than the turkey one, although there wasn't any lack of coverage inside except maybe at the very ends. Between the turkey and the beef, both were pretty salty (as is typical of deli meats), but the turkey worked better with the seasoning for me. It's strange because I usually prefer Arby's roast beef over their turkey. What makes Arby's Gyro taste different from your typical Arby's sandwich is the Greek seasoning and the tzatziki. Fortunately, they do a fine job, with an herby flavor from the seasoning and a cool, creaminess from the tzatziki (although it's doesn't quite hit that yogurt-cucumber combination)."

"text": "Home > Fast Food > Arbys Nutrition Facts & Calorie Information Arbys Nutrition Facts & Calorie Information A Nutrition Guide to the Arbys Menu for Healthy Eating Are you looking for a Arby’s calorie counter online? Well, the chart below will help you find nutritional information about Arby’s food. Arby’s serves meat-hardy sandwiches in quick-service settings. Though the fast food company generally focuses in providing satisfying and savory portions to customers, patrons may order off of the Market Fresh menu to access low-calorie options including the roast turkey ranch and bacon sandwich, the crispy chicken farmhouse salad, and the roast turkey and Swiss wrap. Customers may also examine up-to-date information on food allergens through the restaurant website. The chain offers a list of gluten-free menu items, as well. A typical meal at Arby’s, consisting of a Roast Beef Classic sandwich, a medium-sized order of curly fries, and a regular chocolate milkshake, constitutes about 1,500 calories. The JR. Ham and Swiss and the Smoked Turkey Classic contain 265 and 279 calories, respectively. The sandwiches represent the smallest caloric content available in entree items for customers."

"text": "Arby's Mighty Mini Sliders Nutrition Posted April 18th, 2013 By: Alex Lenhoff Arby's has just released a new limited time offer, the Mighty Minis. These sliders are sold as a pair and are available with either roast beef or roast turkey. Beyond that, you also get your choice of original (just meat on a bun), spicy (with pepper jack cheese and a spicy sauce) or crispy onion (topped with a deep fried onion). So why order a pair of Mighty Mini sliders instead of a regular roast beef or turkey sandwich? Is it a good snack because it's less food? Are the Mighty Minis healthier? Let's look at the nutrition facts to find out!Obviously a Mighty Mini slider is smaller than Arby's Roast Beef Classic Sandwich. But the Mighty Minis come as a set of two, and Arby's says that one serving is two minis. With that in mind, let's compare the nutrition facts for two Arby's Original Roast Beef Mighty Minis with one Roast Beef Classic Sandwich. First, let's look at size."

According to the National Restaurant Association, 46 million people are served at fast food restaurants every day in the U. S. When eating in a fast food restaurant, try to order wisely. You can cut your fat and salt intake by 10 to 40 percent if you order smart. Hold the special sauces, mayonnaise, ketchup (high sodium), meat pizza toppings, pickles and cheeses. Pizza parlors are the number one fast food outlet in the United States. There are over 44,000 in operation compared to 35,000 burger stands and a total of 140,000 fast food outlets nationwide. The most popular pizza topping is pepperoni. However, if you order extra cheese you will add more fat than the pepperoni supplies. In Japan the favorite pizza toppings are tuna and scallops."

"text": "\"Fast Food Chains Misc | By The Top 13 on March 10, 201022 Comments Share Every day, roughly 45 million Americans will eat a meal from a fast food restaurant. Quite simply, fast food is an institution in American life, for better or for worse. Today's list counts down our favorite fast food chains. Since food is unquestionably a matter of taste and preference which can change on a whim, we narrowed this list down - and ranked it - by asking ourselves which restaurants we would stop at if we had our choice of any fast food chain. This list is limited to chains that operate in multiple states and either do not make food to order or offer the convenience of a drive-thru. In addition, we didn't take into account the healthfulness of the chains. With that out of the way, we present the Top 13 Fast Food Chains.expand all1In-N-Out Burger Regional (4 states)This legendary California-based burger chain is a way of life for many living in the Western United States and is a must-stop on all of our trips to the Golden State. In-N-Out simply does burgers better than any other fast food chain. The chain is also beloved because it is still privately owned - there are no franchise locations - and the way it treats its employees, who are paid significantly more than minimum wage. The official menu is refreshingly simple, offering just three different kinds of burgers, as well as fries and shakes, but for those in the know, there is also a \"\"secret\"\" menu that allows you to order your burger \"\"Animal Style\"\" (with many toppings) or \"\"Protein Style\"\" (wrapped only in lettuce)."

"text": "Arby’s Menu Prices Arby’s Prices Arby’s Menu Prices Introduction Did you know that Arby’s is the second largest fast food chain in the United States? They have more than 3400 restaurants across USA. They are not very famous abroad because there are Arby’s restaurants in only four other countries – Canada, Qatar, United Arab Emirates and Turkey. It all started in 1964 when Leroy and Forrest Raffel opened a restaurant that served roast beef sandwiches that are still one of the most popular meals on Arby’s menu. What made this restaurant so popular back then is the fast service and of course the way those sandwiches tasted! After only one year of existence several other restaurants were opened all over USA. The 70s were a great period for Arby’s because they have managed to open 50 new stores every year. In this period several products were added on the menu and they are still part of the classic Arby’s menu. In 1981 there were 1000 Arby’s restaurants in the USA. Below are the current Arby’s prices.

As stated, 2 Pi radians = 360 degrees = one cycle or revolution It is very useful in trigonometry. It is not a ratio. Its sometimes described as the ratio of the length of an arc to the radius of the circle it lies on.

"text": "Is it time to move the NBA’s 3-point line back? Has the shot become too easy and too frequent in today’s game? From an analytical perspective, the 3-point shot is one of the most important scoring options on the court. But is it too easy for contemporary players? During the Finals, the Spurs made an incredible 47 percent of their 3s, which translates to 1.41 points per shot. It’s no wonder they attempted a third of their shots from beyond our magical point-inflating arc. The Heat weren’t too far behind. They made 40 percent of their 3s and also attempted a third of their shots from long range. The league as a whole is not up to those levels, but it’s not trailing by much. During the regular season, 3s accounted for a record 26 percent of all shot attempts, and shooters made 36 percent of them."

"text": "\"DME Arcs Courtesy of Andrew Ayers. The DME arc is a procedure used to transition from the enroute environment to an instrument approach. It's not a particulary difficult procedure, but it's difficult to explain. As the name implies, we'll need DME, so if you're aircraft is not equipped with DME, this won't apply to you. An arc is simply a segment of a circle and you'll see on the chart that the plotted arc is exactly that, a segment of an imaginary circle who's radius is defined by a DME distance from the VOR. Arcs can come in all sizes and don't necessarily have to be based on the facility which is the navaid for the approach. The ILS to Fort Pierce, Fl also has a DME arc based on the Vero Beach VOR. In demonstrating this procedure, we'll be using a new piece of equipment, the Radio Magnetic Indicator (RMI). The interpretation of the RMI is simple, it's needle always points to the station. Most RMIs have two needles, one ADF and one VOR so be sure you are using the VOR needle."

"text": "\"Enterprise Geodatabase 101 A review of design and key features for GIS managers and database administrators By Derek Law, Esri Product Management Summary This article provides a general overview of the enterprise geodatabase—its key features, architecture, and implementation—designed for GIS managers and database administrators. Because the enterprise geodatabase is one of the foundation elements for seamless, organization-wide use of GIS, management staff need a good understanding of its role and capabilities. Figure 1: Enterprise geodatabase tiers The geodatabase is the native data format for Arc GIS. It is a data storage container that defines how data is stored, accessed, and managed by Arc GIS. The term geodatabase combines geo (spatial data) with database (specifically a relational database management system or RDBMS). Arc GIS 9.2 has three types of geodatabases: Microsoft Access-based personal geodatabases, file geodatabases, and Arc SDE geodatabases. Personal and file geodatabases are designed for single users and small projects. Arc SDE geodatabases are scalable and designed for larger-scale use, ranging from medium to enterprise-wide implementations. These geodatabases require Arc SDE technology and are available at three levels (in ascending order of capacity and functionality): personal geodatabase (Arc SDE Personal), workgroup geodatabase (Arc SDE Workgroup), and enterprise geodatabase (Arc SDE Enterprise). This article deals with Arc SDE enterprise geodatabases."

"text": "\"PLATE TECTONICS: Lecture 6THERMAL ASPECTS OF SUBDUCTION ZONESFor the last 2 decades, geologists, geophysicists and geochemists have argued about the physical and chemical conditions which allow melting to occur in subduction zones. Whereas it is easy to explain magmatism at ocean ridges where hot mantle is rising, it is not at first easy to explain why magmas appear in abundance when a cold slab is pushed into the mantle at subduction zones. It used to be thought that friction between the overriding and under-riding plates was responsible, but calculations have showed that friction is most unlikely: there is probably too much hydrous fluid and soft oozy subducted sediment that act as a lubricant. It is important to try to understand the thermal structure of subduction zones. In a classic review paper, Ringwood (1974) suggested that the most primitive island arc lavas (IAT), which are basaltic, could be related to dehydration of the hydrated ocean crust (amphibolite) as it transforms to dense eclogite at depths of ca. 100km. The hydrous fluids rise up into the peridotite mantle wedge, promoting melting (magmas form at much lower temperatures in the presence of water). These magmas then rise slowly up to the arc volcanoes above, and crystallise Mg-rich olivines and pyroxenes as they ascend, so the magmas become more iron-rich. The eruption of basalt (tholeiite) is non-violent. This is shown in cartoon form: For the calc-alkaline, more silicic andesitic and dacitic magmas or more mature arcs, Ringwood suggested a slightly different mechanism based on his experimental work on eclogite."

"text": "\"Measurement of Angles The concept of angle The concept of angle is one of the most important concepts in geometry. The concepts of equality, sums, and differences of angles are important and used throughout geometry, but the subject of trigonometry is based on the measurement of angles. There are two commonly used units of measurement for angles. The more familiar unit of measurement is that of degrees. A circle is divided into 360 equal degrees, so that a right angle is 90°. For the time being, we’ll only consider angles between 0° and 360°, but later, in the section on trigonometric functions, we’ll consider angles greater than 360° and negative angles. Degrees may be further divided into minutes and seconds, but that division is not as universal as it used to be. Each degree is divided into 60 equal parts called minutes. So seven and a half degrees can be called 7 degrees and 30 minutes, written 7° 30'. Each minute is further divided into 60 equal parts called seconds, and, for instance, 2 degrees 5 minutes 30 seconds is written 2° 5' 30\"\"."

"text": "\"Home Inspector Safety & the Dangers of Arc Flashesby Benjamin Gromicko and Kate Tarasenko Home inspection is one largely unregulated industry whose professionals must nevertheless be aware of their safety and that of their clients at all times. Part of this awareness is being mindful of one’s surroundings, which can be challenging because the “workplace” changes with every appointment. Aside from walking a roof, the electrical portion of a home inspection is arguably the most dangerous. Many things can go wrong in an instant, and some mishaps can be fatal. That’s why, even as generalists, home inspectors should understand what causes electrical shocks and arc flashes so that they can avoid them. The Basics The typical electrical service for homes in North America is a 120/240V split-phase system provided by a pole-mounted distribution transformer located at the service drop, which is made up of two 120-volt lines and a neutral line. This triplex cable may include a messenger cable located in the middle of the neutral conductor that provides support over long spans. The neutral line from the pole is connected to an earth ground near the service panel, which is usually a conductive rod driven into the earth. The service drop provides the home with two 120-volt lines of opposite phase, so 240 volts can be obtained by connecting a load between the two 120-volt conductors, while 120-volt loads are connected between either of the two 120-volt lines and the neutral line. The 240-volt circuit is used for a home’s electrical appliances that require substantial power, such as a furnace, water heater, air conditioner, washer and dryer, and oven/range."

"text": "Welding and cutting of metals Welding is a process which uses heat and/or pressure to join metals. Arc welding is by far the most commonly used one in construction. Molten metal from the workpiece and a filler metal from an electrode form a common puddle which cools to form a weld. Flame cutting is an allied process that requires the use of a torch, fuel gas, and oxygen to cut metals—primarily steel. Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) is the most common arc welding process in construction . SMAW uses a short length of consumable electrode which melts as it maintains the arc. Melted metal from the electrode is carried across the arc to become the filler metal of the weld. The electrode is coated with a complex mix of chemicals that release a shielding gas such as carbon dioxide to keep air out of the arc zone and protect the weld from oxidation. The composition of the coating varies with the metal being welded. Gas Metal Arc (GMAW) or Metal Inert Gas Welding (MIG) uses an uncoated consumable wire that is fed continuously down the middle of the welding torch."

"text": "\"Brush was born on his parents' farm March 17, 1849. His early years were spent on the Walnut Hills Farm, about 10 miles east of Cleveland. He was not a typical farm boy and developed an interest in science and electricity at an early age. \"\" He spent as much time in a small workshop in the house as he did at the chores of the farm. As a boy, he was more excited about Humphrey Davy's experiments with the arc light than he was about the success of the farm at Walnut Hill.\"\" 1 At the age of 12, Brush built his first static electric machine. Utilizing materials at hand on the farm, Brush experimented with electricity and constructed a number of electrical devices. Brush's parents realized that Charles would benefit greatly from a good education and they made the financial sacrifice to send him to Cleveland's Central High School. It was there that Brush fulfilled his boyhood dream of constructing an arc light. He graduated from Central High in 1867 with honors."

Well, what Friedrich Wilhelm Bessel did in 1838 was use trigonometry and the parallax effect to calculate the distance of a star based on the distance from the Earth to the Sun. The Earth averages a distance (radius) of 92,955,807.27 miles or 149,597,870.7 km from the Sun. That distance - the length from the Earth's center to the Sun's center - is known as an \"\"astronomical unit\"\" or AU. One AU is one trip from the center of the Earth to the center of the Sun.

"text": "Definitionarc flash Posted by: Margaret Rouse What Is.com An arc flash is an undesired electric discharge that travels through the air between conductors or from a conductor to a ground. The resulting explosion can cause fires and serious harm to equipment and people. The temperature of an arc flash may exceed 35,000 degrees Fahrenheit, which is capable of vaporizing metal and sending a blast of plasma and molten metal in all directions with extreme force. Generally, an electrical system must run at more than 480 V to supply an arc flash; the higher the voltage, the higher the risk. Damage is caused both by the explosion of the arc flash and by the heat radiating from the blast. It is possible to protect against arc flash with the proper protective equipment and, more importantly, safety procedures and training. The IEEE has created a set arc flash standards that companies can use during facilities planning to help minimize the risk of arc flash in the first place.

"text": "0Arc Ratings for FR Clothing: What Is the Difference Between ATPV and Ebt? March 21, 2014A common question in arc flash clothing protection is whether an ATPV value or an Ebt value is better protection for FRC. Let’s start by defining these two values and seeing what each actually means. First, it’s important to understand that the arc rating of a fabric is either an ATPV (Arc Thermal Performance Value) or an Ebt (Energy breakopen threshold). Arc Thermal Performance Value (ATPV) is “the incident energy on a fabric or material that results in sufficient heat transfer through the fabric or material to cause the onset of a second degree burn based on the Stoll curve. ( 1)” ATPV indicates the level of protection provided by flame resistant clothing as measured in cal/cm 2. An arc rating (ATPV) means that you have a 50% chance of being burned if exposed to an electric arc with the same number of calories of heat. The fabric will usually not break open unless exposed to energy levels higher than the arc rating. Ebt is similar to ATPV but is determined when breakopen occurs before the onset of a second degree burn. Energy breakopen threshold (Ebt) is “the average of the five highest incident energy exposure values below the Stoll curve where specimens do not exhibit breakopen. ("

When an arc flash occurs it creates a very bright light and intense heat. In addition, it has the potential to create an arc blast, which can cause a traumatic force that can severely injure anyone in the area or damage anything nearby. What Happens During an Arc Flash An arc flash begins when the electricity exits its intended path and begins traveling through the air toward a grounded area. Once this happens, it ionizes the air, which further reduces the overall resistance along the path that the arc is taking. This helps draw in additional electrical energy. The arc will travel toward a ground of some type, which will typically be whatever object is closest to its source. The exact distance that an arc flash can travel is known as the arc flash boundary."

"text": "\"NFPA 70E: Who is a \"\"Qualified Worker? \"\" By testguy February 11, 20160 Comments It is important to note that a person can be considered qualified with respect to certain equipment and methods, but still be unqualified in other situations. Working with electrical power has always been a risky business, and potential hazards - including arc flash - are on the rise. Because of the severe and often devastating consequences of arc flash incidents (which claim at least one life every workday ), the NFPA is using several strategies to facilitate worker safety starting with the requirement that workers be properly qualified for the work being performed. The NFPA 70E 2012 definition of a qualified person is: \"\"one who has skills and knowledge related to the construction and operation of the electrical equipment and installations and has received safety training to recognize and avoid the hazards involved. ”Electrical workers who meet this definition of a “qualified electrical worker” will be able to: Determine the nominal voltage for the equipment or system Determine the required approach distances for electrical shock and burn hazards Distinguish exposed energized conductors and circuits from other parts of the equipment Properly select, care for and use the appropriate personal protective equipment for both shock protection and arc flash protection Being properly qualified is just one of the safe work strategies found in NFPA-70E. Other safe work requirements include performing work under an electrically safe work condition whenever it is feasible to do so, and following prescribed safe work practices when creating an electrically safe work condition is not feasible. These prescribed safe work practices may include: Restricting access to energized electrical equipment with barricades and signs Establishing various approach boundaries Requiring specific PPE for electric shock and arc flash hazards, and job planning requirements, which include hazard analysis, job safety briefings and the use of energized work permits. It is important to note that a person can be considered qualified with respect to certain equipment and methods, but still be unqualified in other situations.2015 Updates to NFPA 70E Qualified Person Requirements The 2015 version of NFPA 70E adds the requirement that a qualified person shall demonstrate the ability to use the following: Special precautionary techniques PPE including arc flash suits Insulating and shielding materials Insulated tools and test equipment The new standard also adds that qualified electrical workers permitted to work within the limited approach boundary of exposed energized electrical conductors and circuit parts must have additional training in minimum approach distances to exposed parts operating at 50 volts or more. Employees who respond to medical emergencies must also participate in refresher training per the new standard. NFPA 70E is the standard that addresses employee workplace electrical safety requirements, focusing on practical safeguards that also allow workers to be productive within their job functions."

"text": "What causes an arc flash and what kind of injuries can arc flash cause? Back to F. A. Q. An arc flash happens when electric current flows through an air gap between conductors. Accidents caused by touching a test probe to the wrong surface or slipped tool are the most common cause of an arcing fault. Arc flashes can also be caused by: Sparks due to breaks or gaps in the insulation Equipment failure due to use of substandard parts, improper installation, or even normal wear and tear Dust, corrosion or other impurities on the surface of the conductor The fault current magnetic fields make conductors to separate producing an arc. In other words, arc flash is caused by uncontrolled conduction of electrical current from phase to ground, phase to neutral, and/or phase to phase accompanied by ionization of the surrounding air. Because of the expansive vaporization of conductive metal, a line-to-line or line-to-ground arcing fault can escalate into a three phase arcing fault in less than a 1/1000 of a second. The heat energy and intense light at the point of the arc is called arc flash. Short circuits and arc faults are extremely dangerous and potentially fatal to personnel. The product of arc fault current and voltage concentrated in one place, results in enormous energy released in several forms. Arc flash can cause the following injuries: Skin burns by direct heat exposure."

"text": "\"Home Inspector Safety & the Dangers of Arc Flashesby Benjamin Gromicko and Kate Tarasenko Home inspection is one largely unregulated industry whose professionals must nevertheless be aware of their safety and that of their clients at all times. Part of this awareness is being mindful of one’s surroundings, which can be challenging because the “workplace” changes with every appointment. Aside from walking a roof, the electrical portion of a home inspection is arguably the most dangerous. Many things can go wrong in an instant, and some mishaps can be fatal. That’s why, even as generalists, home inspectors should understand what causes electrical shocks and arc flashes so that they can avoid them. The Basics The typical electrical service for homes in North America is a 120/240V split-phase system provided by a pole-mounted distribution transformer located at the service drop, which is made up of two 120-volt lines and a neutral line. This triplex cable may include a messenger cable located in the middle of the neutral conductor that provides support over long spans. The neutral line from the pole is connected to an earth ground near the service panel, which is usually a conductive rod driven into the earth. The service drop provides the home with two 120-volt lines of opposite phase, so 240 volts can be obtained by connecting a load between the two 120-volt conductors, while 120-volt loads are connected between either of the two 120-volt lines and the neutral line. The 240-volt circuit is used for a home’s electrical appliances that require substantial power, such as a furnace, water heater, air conditioner, washer and dryer, and oven/range."

Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. ( March 2014) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)A spark gap A spark gap consists of an arrangement of two conducting electrodes separated by a gap usually filled with a gas such as air, designed to allow an electric spark to pass between the conductors. When the potential difference between the conductors exceeds the breakdown voltage of the gas within the gap, a spark forms, ionizing the gas and drastically reducing its electrical resistance. An electric current then flows until the path of ionized gas is broken or the current reduces below a minimum value called the \"\"holding current\"\". This usually happens when the voltage drops, but in some cases occurs when the heated gas rises, stretching out and then breaking the filament of ionized gas. Usually, the action of ionizing the gas is violent and disruptive, often leading to sound (ranging from a snap for a spark plug to thunder for a lightning discharge), light and heat. Spark gaps were used historically in early electrical equipment, such as spark gap radio transmitters, electrostatic machines, and X-ray machines. Their most widespread use today is in spark plugs to ignite the fuel in internal combustion engines, but they are also used in lightning arresters and other devices to protect electrical equipment from high-voltage transients."

There is still no concrete news, but we thought it would be appropriate to post this article to show just how knowledgeable he was. Despite all the press devoted these days to NFPA 70E, many electrical contractors, electricians and engineers still don’t have a clear idea what the NFPA 70E standard covers and how it works. Here then, is a very short guide to this important electrical safety standard. Scope NFPA 70E-2004 is entitled Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace. It is related to the National Electrical Code (NFPA standard 70) as follows:• The National Electrical Code (NEC) describes how to design and install electrical systems but not how to actually perform the work.• NFPA 70E describes safe work practices for electrical construction and maintenance but not how to design or install electrical systems.• The two documents (NEC and NFPA 70E) have identical scopes and many of the same definition. They both cover “inside” wiring in buildings and similar structures. Neither of them covers utility (line) construction. Construction sites are workplaces. The NEC covers safety of electrical installations, and NFPA 70E covers electrical safety in workplaces."

"text": "Arc-Flash Protection - Understanding NFPA 70EFlash Hazard Analysis On the subject of arc-flash, 70E requires a flash hazard analysis. Although 70E does not explain how to conduct an analysis it does say the analysis shall determine a flash protection boundary and the personal protective equipment (PPE) requirements when working within that boundary. Arc-Flash Boundary Arc-flash boundaries are required around electrical equipment such as switchboards, panelboards, industrial control panels, motor control centers, and similar equipment when an individual works on or in the proximity of exposed energized (energized and not enclosed, shielded, covered, or otherwise protected from contact) components. This includes conducting activities such as examination, adjustment, servicing, maintenance or troubleshooting. Equipment energized below 240V need not be considered unless fed by a 112.5KVA transformer or larger. The arc-flash boundary is a distance at which a person working any closer at the time of an arc-flash may receive permanent injury (the onset of a second degree burn or worse) if not properly protected by flame-resistant (FR) clothing. Research has shown that permanent injury results from an arc-flash that causes an incident energy of 1.2 calories/centimeter2 (cal/cm2) or greater at the skin's surface. This distance (boundary) cannot be determined by casual survey of electrical equipment. The only practical way of determining this boundary is to calculate the magnitude of the arc (a function of the available short circuit current), estimate how long the arc will last (a function of the interrupting time of the fuse or circuit breaker), and then calculate how far away an individual must be to avoid receiving an incident energy of 1.2 cal/cm2. Small Facilities In small facilities such as small businesses and offices that only use 240 volts and less and have minor power requirements (primarily lighting and receptacle loads), it may not be practical or economical to calculate arc-flash boundaries."

The sine of an acute angle is defined in the context of a right triangle: for the specified angle, it is the ratio of the length of the side that is opposite that angle to the length of the longest side of the triangle (the hypotenuse ). More generally, the definition of sine (and other trigonometric functions) can be extended to any real value in terms of the length of a certain line segment in a unit circle. More modern definitions express the sine as an infinite series or as the solution of certain differential equations, allowing their extension to arbitrary positive and negative values and even to complex numbers. The sine function is commonly used to model periodic phenomena such as sound and light waves, the position and velocity of harmonic oscillators, sunlight intensity and day length, and average temperature variations throughout the year. The function sine can be traced to the jyā and koṭi-jyā functions used in Gupta period Indian astronomy ( Aryabhatiya, Surya Siddhanta ), via translation from Sanskrit to Arabic and then from Arabic to Latin. [ 1] The word \"\"sine\"\" comes from a Latin mistranslation of the Arabic jiba, which is a transliteration of the Sanskrit word for half the chord, jya-ardha. ["

Since C = 2 pi r, there are 2 pi radians in a full circle. 1 radian = about 57.3 degrees = 63.66 grads. So question arises is :- Why does anyone want to divide a right angle into 100 grads instead of 90 degrees? grads are a decimal unit, and are subdivided into simple 100ths, just like the meter is subdivided into cetimeters.. Degrees are not decimal units--they are subdivided into 60 minutes and then another 60 Page on seconds.so every time you want to do a simple calculation (say, adding two angles), you have to do first do TWO extra steps--convert the seconds into decimal minutes, then convert the decimalized minutes into decimal degrees. ( most pocket calculators have a simple button that does this, but it still requires you to press an extra button before doing the actual calculation that you want to complete. try this example--add two angles : 75 degrees, 45 minutes, 20 seconds plus 25 degrees 15 minutes 10 seconds. or add 75.753 plus 25.251 Which is easier?

The variants (e.g., Beyer 1987, p. 141; Bronshtein and Semendyayev, 1997, p. 70) and are sometimes used to refer to explicit principal values of the inverse cotangent, although this distinction is not always made (e.g., Zwillinger 1995, p. 466). Worse yet, the notation is sometimes used for the principal value, with being used for the multivalued function (Abramowitz and Stegun 1972, p. 80). Note that in the notation (commonly used in North America and in pocket calculators worldwide), is the cotangent and the superscript denotes an inverse function, not the multiplicative inverse. The principal value of the inverse cotangent is implemented in the Wolfram Language as Arc Cot [ z ]. There are at least two possible conventions for defining the inverse cotangent. This work follows the convention of Abramowitz and Stegun (1972, p. 79) and the Wolfram Language, taking to have range, a discontinuity at, and the branch cut placed along the line segment. This definition can be expressed in terms of the natural logarithm by (1)This definition is also consistent, as it must be, with the Wolfram Language 's definition of Arc Tan , so Arc Cot [ z ] is equal to Arc Tan [1/ z ]. A different but common convention (e.g., Zwillinger 1995, p. 466; Bronshtein and Semendyayev, 1997, p. 70; Jeffrey 2000, p. 125) defines the range of as, thus giving a function that is continuous on the real line. Extreme care should be taken where examining identities involving inverse trigonometric functions, since their range of applicability or precise form may differ depending on the convention being used."

The arc length is the measure of a given section of a circle's circumference; a central angle has a vertex at the center of the circle and the sides that pass through two points on the circle; and circumference is the distance around the circle. The vertex is the center of the circle. Calculating each of these is easy if you have the right tools and you're using the proper formulas. Calculating the Central Angle Place the origin of the protractor on the angle's vertex. Place the base line of the protractor on one of the angle's sides. Record the number on the protractor where the second side of the angle passes through the edge of the protractor. If the angle is larger than 90 degrees, record the top number; if the angle is smaller than 90 degrees, record the lower number. This is the measurement of your central angle.

Circles have many components including the circumference, radius, diameter, arc length and degrees, sector areas, inscribed angles, chords, tangents, and semicircles. Only a few of these measurements involve straight lines, so you need to know both the formulas and units of measurement required for each. In math, the concept of circles will come up again and again from kindergarten on through college calculus, but once you understand how to measure the various parts of a circle, you'll be able to talk knowledgeably about this fundamental geometric shape or quickly complete your homework assignment.01of 07Radius and Diameter The radius is a line from the center point of a circle to any part of the circle. This is probably the simplest concept related to measuring circles but possibly the most important. The diameter of a circle, by contrast, is the longest distance from one edge of the circle to the opposite edge. The diameter is a special type of chord, a line that joins any two points of a circle. The diameter is twice as long as the radius, so if the radius is 2 inches, for example, the diameter would be 4 inches. If the radius is 22.5 centimeters, the diameter would be 45 centimeters. Think of the diameter as if you are cutting a perfectly circular pie right down the center so that you have two equal pie halves."

GRE Quantitative Reasoning Overview The Quantitative Reasoning measure, also known as “Quant,” is one of three major components of the GRE. ( The other two are Verbal Reasoning and Analytical Writing. ) You’ll always have two Quant and two Verbal sections, but the order in which you’ll complete them is entirely random. ( You will also get a fifth experimental section that’ll be an additional Quant or Verbal section."

"text": "\"Determining the length of an irregular arc segment—also called rectification of a curve —was historically difficult. Although many methods were used for specific curves, the advent of calculus led to a general formula that provides closed-form solutions in some cases. Contents [ show]General approach A curve in, say, the plane can be approximated by connecting a finite number of points on the curve using line segments to create a polygonal path. Since it is straightforward to calculate the length of each linear segment (using the theorem of Pythagoras in Euclidean space, for example), the total length of the approximation can be found by summing the lengths of each linear segment. If the curve is not already a polygonal path, better approximations to the curve can be obtained by following the shape of the curve increasingly more closely. The approach is to use an increasingly larger number of segments of smaller lengths. The lengths of the successive approximations do not decrease and will eventually keep increasing—possibly indefinitely, but for smooth curves this will tend to a limit as the lengths of the segments get arbitrarily small . For some curves there is a smallest number that is an upper bound on the length of any polygonal approximation. If such a number exists, then the curve is said to be rectifiable and the curve is defined to have arc length . Definition See also: Curve#Lengths of curves Let be a curve in Euclidean (or, more generally, a metric) space , so is the image of a continuous function of the interval into ."

Zwillinger 1995, p. 466). The inverse tangent function is plotted above along the real axis . Worse yet, the notation is sometimes used for the principal value, with being used for the multivalued function (Abramowitz and Stegun 1972, p. 80). Note that in the notation (commonly used in North America and in pocket calculators worldwide), denotes the tangent and the inverse function, not the multiplicative inverse. The principal value of the inverse tangent is implemented as Arc Tan [ z ] in the Wolfram Language. In the GNU C library, it is implemented as atan ( double x ). The inverse tangent is a multivalued function and hence requires a branch cut in the complex plane, which the Wolfram Language 's convention places at and.

We say in geometry that an arc \"\"subtends\"\" an angle θ; literally, \"\"stretches under. \"\" Now the circumference of a circle is an arc length. And the ratio of the circumference to the diameter is the basis of radian measure. That ratio is the definition of π.π= C D. Since D = 2 r, thenπ= C 2 ror,Cr=2π. That ratio -- 2 π -- of the circumference of a circle to the radius, is called the radian measure of 1 revolution, which are four right angles at the center. The circumference subtends those four right angles. Radian measure of θ = sr Thus the radian measure is based on ratios -- numbers -- that are actually found in the circle. The radian measure is a real number that indicates the ratio of a curved line to a straight, of an arc to the radius. For, the ratio of s to r does determine a unique central angle θ."

"text": "As a native of the great state of California, I have no choice but to love the sea. Actually, that’s not true at all—a lot of Californians live a hundred or more miles from the ocean (it’s a big state), and are more accustomed to mountains that the big blue…but I digress... The truth is that I really do happen to love all things related to the ocean: the beach, the breeze, the breaking waves, and (of course) the boats. Which conveniently brings us to today’s marine-themed questions: What’s a nautical mile? What’s a knot? And for that matter, what do either of these things have to do with math? Keep reading, because those are exactly the questions we’ll be answering today!. Review: Arc Length I don’t want to leave you in too much suspense over this whole nautical mile mystery, so I’m going to cut to the chase: a nautical mile is an arc length. Which explains why we talked about arc lengths last time in preparation for today’s discussion. If you missed last week’s episode, I highly recommend you check it out before continuing on—it was super awesome, and included fascinating fun facts about arc lengths. The quick summary from that episode is that the famous formula for the circumference of a circle, C = 2πr, is really a formula for calculating the length of the arc that happens to be a complete circle. And from knowing the fact that 2π radians is the angle around an entire circle, we can surmise that the general formula for the length of an arc (traditionally called s) that has a radius of r and spans an angle θ is given by s = θ • r ."

Ancient Roman ruins (with arches)All through the regions that were part of the ancient Roman Empire are ruins of Roman aqueducts and buildings, most of them exhibiting arches as part of the architecture (you may make the etymological leap that the two words—arch and architecture—are related, but the Oxford English Dictionary shows arch as coming from Latin arcus, which defines the shape, while arch—as in architect, archbishop and archenemy—comes from Greek arkhos, meaning chief and ekton means builder). Interior of the Palatine Chapel of Charlemagne, Aachen, Germany, 792-805, photo: Elena ( (CC BY-NC-SA 2.0) When Charlemagne was crowned Holy Roman Emperor in 800 C. E., Europe began to take its first steps out of the “Dark Ages” since the fall of Rome in the fifth century. The remains of Roman civilization were seen all over the continent, and legends of the great empire would have been passed down through generations. So when Charlemagne wanted to unite his empire and validate his reign, he began building churches in the Roman style–particularly the style of Christian Rome in the days of Constantine, the first Christian Roman emperor. After a gap of around two hundred years with no large building projects, the architects of Charlemagne’s day looked to the arched, or arcaded, system seen in Christian Roman edifices as a model. It is a logical system of stresses and buttressing, which was fairly easily engineered for large structures, and it began to be used in gatehouses, chapels, and churches in Europe. These early examples may be referred to as pre-Romanesque because, after a brief spurt of growth, the development of architecture again lapsed. As a body of knowledge was eventually re-developed, buildings became larger and more imposing."

Elaborately decorated classical -style stone console corbels supporting balconies on a building in Indianapolis Spanish Late Gothic corbel In architecture a corbel is a structural piece of stone, wood or metal jutting from a wall to carry a superincumbent weight, a type of bracket. [ 1] A corbel is a solid piece of material in the wall, whereas a console is a piece applied to the structure. A piece of timber projecting in the same way was called a \"\"tassel\"\" or a \"\"bragger\"\" in the UK. [ 2] The technique of corbelling, where rows of corbels deeply keyed inside a wall support a projecting wall or parapet, has been used since Neolithic, or New Stone Age, times. [ 3] It is common in Medieval architecture and in the Scottish baronial style as well as in the vocabulary of classical architecture, such as the modillions of a Corinthian cornice, Hindu temple architecture and in ancient Chinese architecture. A console is more specifically an \"\"S\"\"-shaped scroll bracket in the classical tradition, with the upper or inner part larger than the lower (as in the first illustration) or outer. Keystones are also often in the form of consoles. [ 4] Whereas \"\"corbel\"\" is rarely used outside architecture, \"\"console\"\" is widely used for furniture, as in console table, and other decorative arts where the motif appears. The word \"\"corbel\"\" comes from Old French and derives from the Latin corbellus, a diminutive of corvus (\"\" raven \"\"), which refers to the beak-like appearance. ["

"text": "Gothic Art and Architecture Gothic Art and Architecture, religious and secular buildings, sculpture, stained glass, and illuminated manuscripts and other decorative arts produced in Europe during the latter part of the Middle Ages (5th century to 15th century). Gothic art began to be produced in France about 1140, spreading to the rest of Europe during the following century. The Gothic Age ended with the advent of the Renaissance in Italy about the beginning of the 15th century, although Gothic art and architecture continued in the rest of Europe through most of the 15th century, and in some regions of northern Europe into the 16th century. Originally the word Gothic was used by Italian Renaissance writers as a derogatory term for all art and architecture of the Middle Ages, which they regarded as comparable to the works of barbarian Goths. Since then the term Gothic has been restricted to the last major medieval period. The Gothic Age is now considered one of Europe’s outstanding artistic eras. II ARCHITECTURE Architecture was the dominant expression of the Gothic Age. Emerging in the first half of the 12th century from Romanesque antecedents, Gothic architecture continued well into the 16th century in northern Europe, long after the other arts had embraced the Renaissance. Although a vast number of secular monuments were built in the Gothic style, it was in the service of the church, the most prolific builder of the Middle Ages, that the new architecture evolved and attained its fullest realization. The aesthetic qualities of Gothic architecture depend on a structural development: the ribbed vault."

"text": "\"share Watering Ancient Rome Posted 02.22.00 NOVAPeter Aicher, an Associate Professor of Classics at the University of Southern Maine, has spent years studying the graceful arches and ingenious plumbing of Ancient Rome's vast water distrubution system. In this interview, he describes how the Romans developed this elaborate system, which included aqueducts 60 miles long. Roman architects and hydraulic engineers built the magnificent water-transporting bridge known as Pont du Gard 2,000 years ago. Enlarge Photo credit: © Samo Trebizan/i Stockphoto An Empire Built on Water NOVA: I thought we'd begin by looking at the big picture. What would Rome and the Roman Empire have been like without their aqueducts? What did these water bridges mean to their civilization? Peter Aicher: The Romans could not have built cities as big as they did without aqueducts—and some of their cities wouldn't have existed at all. Romans sometimes built cities on dry plains. They'd find a spring in the mountains and take that water into the city, which would not have been possible without the transported water. With the water, they could have their baths, their fountains, and their drinking water."

Explore the history, design, construction, and significance of the Roman arch and test your understanding of ancient Roman culture, architecture, and influence. Definition of Roman Arches Admit it, you take arches for granted. It's okay, we all do. After all, they're pretty much everywhere these days, from bridges to fast food logos. So what's so special about an arch? Actually, the arch is one of the single most important architectural discoveries in human history, and we have the Romans to thank for it. The Roman arch was the foundation of Rome's architectural mastery and massive expanse of building projects across the ancient world. It allowed the Romans to make bigger buildings, longer roads, and better aqueducts. The Roman arch is the ancestor of modern architecture."

"text": "\"ARTH Courses | ARTH 212 | ARTH 212 Assignments The Romanization of Christianity and the Christianization of Rome: the Early Christian Basilica When Constantine became the patron of Christianity, he wanted to construct churches. Note how this motivation is like earlier Roman Emperors who also gave physical testament to their power and piety by constructing temples. Clearly the forms of the pre-Constantinian Christian buildings like the Dura-Europos Christian meeting house were inappropriate considering the new status of Christianity: The traditional Roman temple type, as exemplified here by the Maison Carrée constructed during the reign of Augustus, was clearly inappropriate considering the association with Pagan cults: Note that there is also a significant difference between the function of the Pagan temple and a Christian context. In Pagan practices the sacrifices and ceremonies generally occurred on the exterior. The temple served as the house of the cult. The cult statue and treasury could be housed there. The temple was a backdrop for the sacrifices. This exterior orientation of the Pagan temple reflects the openness and inclusive nature of Pagan religious practices. But Christianity was by definition a mystery religion, and thus needed to have a clear separation between the faithful and the nonfaithful. This would lead to a significant reorientation of religious architecture from an architecture of the exterior to an architecture of the interior."

Its chief function is to provide a large supporting surface, tending to be wider than the capital, as an abutment to receive the weight of the arch or the architrave above. The diminutive of abacus, abaculus, is used to describe small mosaic tiles, also called abaciscus or tessera, used to create ornamental floors with detailed patterns of chequers or squares in a tessellated pavement. Contents [ hide ]1 Definition2 Indian architecture (Śilpaśāstra)3 Examples in England4 Examples in France5 Sources6 Footnotes7 References8 External links Definition [ edit]In classical architecture, the shape of the abacus and its edge profile varies in the different classical orders. In the Greek Doric order, the abacus is a plain square slab without mouldings, supported on an echinus. [ 2] In the Roman and Renaissance Doric orders, it is crowned by a moulding (known as \"\" crown moulding \"\"). In the Tuscan and Roman Doric capital, it may rest on a boltel. In the archaic Greek Ionic order, the abacus is rectangular in plan, owing to the greater width of the capital, and consists of a carved ovolo moulding. In later examples, the slab is thinner and the abacus remains square, except where there are angled volutes, where the slab is slightly curved. In the Roman and Renaissance Ionic capital, the abacus is square with a fillet on the top of an ogee moulding with curved edges over angled volutes. ["

The Fisher — built by the Fisher brothers of “Body by Fisher” fame — opened Sept. 1, 1928, at Second Avenue and Grand Boulevard. Once known as the Cathedral to Commerce, the 441-foot tower is decked to the nines in fancy marbles, mosaics, soaring, painted ceilings and a whole lot of brass and bronze. This world of shops, theater, art and architectural beauty is renowned architect Albert Kahn’s masterpiece, “a superbly designed complex which displays some of the finest craftsmanship in any Art Deco style building constructed in the U. S. in the 1920s,” the National Park Service says. Unquestionably, the golden tower of the Fisher Building is one of the most recognizable sights in Detroit’s skyline. A beauty is born Like so much of Detroit’s history, the Fisher Building is tied to the automobile industry. The Fisher brothers -– Frederick J., Charles T., William A., Lawrence P., Edward F., Alfred J. and Howard A. -– made a fortune making auto bodies for Detroit’s booming car industry. From the days in their boyhood home in Norwalk, Ohio, the brothers learned from their parents -– carriage maker Lawrence Sr. and Margaret -– to work and play together, a mentality of one for all and all for one. Their bond was strong."

The current cathedral, mostly constructed between 1194 and 1220, is the last of at least five which have occupied the site since the town became a bishopric in the 4th century. It is in the Gothic and Romanesque styles. It is designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, which calls it \"\"the high point of French Gothic art \"\" and a \"\"masterpiece\"\". [ 2]The cathedral has been well preserved. The majority of the original stained glass windows survived intact, while the architecture has seen only minor changes since the early 13th century. The building's exterior is dominated by heavy flying buttresses which allowed the architects to increase the window size significantly, while the west end is dominated by two contrasting spires – a 105-metre (349 ft) plain pyramid completed around 1160 and a 113-metre (377 ft) early 16th-century Flamboyant spire on top of an older tower. Equally notable are the three great façades, each adorned with hundreds of sculpted figures illustrating key theological themes and narratives. Since at least the 12th century the cathedral has been an important destination for travelers."

Designed by the firm of Graven & Mayger, the Fisher Theatre could seat 2,715 in its plush auditorium seats. The interior featured two balconies, an orchestra pit, a 4-manual/36-rank Wurlitzer organ, and in the lobby, a goldfish pond, real banana trees, and macaws which patrons could feed by hand while waiting for the next show. In the early-1930’s, the theatre was operated by Paramount-Publix and became home to the 40-piece Sam Benavie Orchestra as well as elaborate stage acts. By the 1950’s, the stage shows were gone, and the Fisher Theatre began showing only films. Its Wurlitzer was removed in 1956 and installed in the Senate Theatre. For the last few years of the 1950’s, the Fisher Theatre became a second-run house and screened its final movie “The Magnificent Seven” in 1960. The next year, the Fisher Theatre was acquired by the Nederlander Theatrical Corporation, which hired the firm of Rapp & Rapp to remodel the theatre at a cost of $3.5 million. It reopened October 1, 1961 with a pre-Broadway production of the musical “The Gay Life”."

The same structural form was used for open arcades as well as windows, and is found in galleries and cloisters.

"text": "Home > Info > Recreation and Fitness > Health > Learn Medical Terminology How to Understand Medical Terminology When studying and using medical terminology it is important to understand the basic structure of medical terms and their meanings. In medicine all parts of a medical term are essential to the meaning of that term and each part of that term has its own meaning. When learning about language and medical terminology, it is worthwhile remembering that words will contain patterns and the more you read and become familiar with them, the more you will readily and easily understand them. It is also important to note that not every medical term follows the exact same pattern. Some words have very clear derivatives whereas others are not so distinct in in where they have evolved from. Do not expect to see that exact same patterns in all words. Medical terms sometimes consist of three parts - a root, a prefix and a suffix. When the three are combined it will express the meaning of the term. These types of words are called constructed words as they usually contain all three elements i.e. prefix, root and suffix. The root of a word (known as the word root) contains the basic meaning (definition) of the word often referring to a body part or system e.g. cardi (heart)."

Bernstam a b Christopher G. Chute d Todd R. Johnson a e Show morehttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.jbi.2012.06.005 Get rights and content Under an Elsevier user license open archive Abstract Standardized terminological systems for biomedical information have provided considerable benefits to biomedical applications and research. However, practical use of this information often requires mapping across terminological systems—a complex and time-consuming process. This paper demonstrates the complexity and challenges of mapping across terminological systems in the context of medication information. It provides a review of medication terminological systems and their linkages, then describes a case study in which we mapped proprietary medication codes from an electronic health record to SNOMED CT and the UMLS Metathesaurus. The goal was to create a polyhierarchical classification system for querying an i2b2 clinical data warehouse. We found that three methods were required to accurately map the majority of actively prescribed medications. Only 62.5% of source medication codes could be mapped automatically. The remaining codes were mapped using a combination of semi-automated string comparison with expert selection, and a completely manual approach. Compound drugs were especially difficult to map: only 7.5% could be mapped using the automatic method. General challenges to mapping across terminological systems include (1) the availability of up-to-date information to assess the suitability of a given terminological system for a particular use case, and to assess the quality and completeness of cross-terminology links; (2) the difficulty of correctly using complex, rapidly evolving, modern terminologies; (3) the time and effort required to complete and evaluate the mapping; (4) the need to address differences in granularity between the source and target terminologies; and (5) the need to continuously update the mapping as terminological systems evolve."

Proximally, its territory of distribution overlaps (forms a watershed) with the middle colic artery, and therefore the superior mesenteric artery. The SMA and IMA anastomose via the marginal artery of the colon (artery of Drummond) and via Riolan's arcade (also called the \"\"meandering artery\"\", an arterial connection between the left colic artery and the medial colic artery). The territory of distribution of the IMA is more or less equivalent to the embryonic hindgut.

Unilateral amastia (just on one side) is often associated with absence of the pectoral muscles. Bilateral amastia (with absence of both breasts) is associated in 40% of cases with multiple congenital anomalies (birth defects) involving other parts of the body as well. The condition is thought to be described in the Bible \"\"We have a little sister, and she hath no breasts\"\" (Song of Solomon VIII:8). Amastia is distinguished from amazia wherein the breast tissue is absent, but the nipple is present. Amazia typically is a result of radiation or surgery. medical terminology, medical dictionary, medical dictionary free download, medical terminology made easy, medical terminology song Show more Loading... \""

Abstract Background: Providing scalable clinical decision support (CDS) across institutions that use different electronic health record (EHR) systems has been a challenge for medical informatics researchers. The lack of commonly shared EHR models and terminology bindings has been recognised as a major barrier to sharing CDS content among different organisations. The open EHR Guideline Definition Language (GDL) expresses CDS content based on open EHR archetypes and can support any clinical terminologies or natural languages. Our aim was to explore in an experimental setting the practicability of GDL and its underlying archetype formalism. A further aim was to report on the artefacts produced by this new technological approach in this particular experiment. We modelled and automatically executed compliance checking rules from clinical practice guidelines for acute stroke care. Methods: We extracted rules from the European clinical practice guidelines as well as from treatment contraindications for acute stroke care and represented them using GDL. Then we executed the rules retrospectively on 49 mock patient cases to check the cases’ compliance with the guidelines, and manually validated the execution results. We used open EHR archetypes, GDL rules, the open EHR reference information model, reference terminologies and the Data Archetype Definition Language."

"text": "Medical Terminology and Medical Billing Professional medical billers have mastered the specialized language of medical code, and this code is based on the language of medicine. Medical billers and medical coders need to comfortable using and understanding medical terms in order to apply the correct codes to describe services delivered to patients. Medical language is precise. Each of the specialized words has a specific meaning so that health care providers can communicate their exact observations and prescriptions. The definitions of each code are written for trained professionals rather than for laypeople. It is expected that the people who use medical code fully understand the foundation on which the codes are based. Both the International Classification of Diseases-9th Edition-Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) and the Healthcare Common Procedural Coding System (HCPCS) specify that the code used must match its definition, based on the documentation in the medical record. Medical coding is the art of translating the information contained in the medical record into a sequence of abstract numbers and letters, each sequence carrying a specific meaning. With proper training, professional medical billers and certified medical coders perform this translation accurately and efficiently. Basics of Medical Terminology Many of the words used by physicians, surgeons, and other healthcare providers consist of Greek and Latin root words that are combined to create a multi-syllabic term that carries a precise meaning."

( May 2010) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)Thomas Cole 's The Arcadian or Pastoral State, 1834Arcadia ( Greek: Ἀρκαδία) refers to a vision of pastoralism and harmony with nature. The term is derived from the Greek province of the same name which dates to antiquity; the province's mountainous topography and sparse population of pastoralists later caused the word Arcadia to develop into a poetic byword for an idyllic vision of unspoiled wilderness. Arcadia is a poetic shaped space associated with bountiful natural splendor and harmony. [ 1] The 'Garden' is often inhabited by shepherds. The concept also figures in Renaissance mythology. Although commonly thought of as being in line with Utopian ideals, Arcadia differs from that tradition in that it is more often specifically regarded as unattainable."

The city's powers of government have been absorbed by the parish, which is now run by the Terrebonne Parish Consolidated Government. The population was 33,727 at the 2010 census, an increase of 1,334 over the 2000 tabulation of 32,393. [ 5]Many unincorporated areas are adjacent to the city of Houma. The largest, Bayou Cane, is an urbanized area commonly referred to by locals as being part of Houma, but it is not included in the city's census counts, and is a separate census-designated place. If the populations of the urbanized census-designated places were included with that of the city of Houma, the total would exceed 60,000 residents. The city was named after the historic Native American tribe of Houma people, believed to be related to the Choctaw. The United Houma Nation Tribe is recognized by the state of Louisiana, but it has not achieved federal recognition. ["

In the early daylight, Bonnie and Clyde appeared in an automobile and when they attempted to drive away, the officers opened fire. Bonnie and Clyde were killed instantly. Source: FBI History Famous Cases Bonnie and Clyde Added by: Rob Brent Bonnie and Clyde were ambushed and killed on May 23, 1934, on a rural road in Bienville Parish, Louisiana. The couple appeared in daylight in an automobile and were shot by a posse of four Texas officers (Frank Hamer, B. M. \"\"Manny\"\" Gault, Bob Alcorn and Ted Hinton) and two Louisiana officers (Henderson Jordan and Prentiss Morel Oakley). The posse was led by Hamer who had begun tracking the pair on February 12, 1934. He studied the gang's movements and found they swung in a circle skirting the edges of five midwestern states, exploiting the \"\"state line\"\" rule that prevented officers from one jurisdiction from pursuing a fugitive into another. Barrow was a master of that pre-FBI rule, but consistent in his movements, so the experienced Hamer charted his path and predicted where he would go. The gang's itinerary centered on family visits, and they were due to see Methvin's family in Louisiana. Hamer expected this, and had obtained a quantity of civilian Browning Automatic Rifles and 20-round magazines with armor-piercing rounds."

Derek Wilson, LA Calif. The car was a 1934 Ford Model 730 Deluxe Sedan (Fordor) which belonged to Ruth and Jesse Warren. They had recently purchased the car and it had been sitting in their driveway. Ruth, who had been doing dishes looked out of the window and noticed that the car was missing. Ruth thought that her husband had driven it to the house of a neighbor, she called him and he said that he hadn't taken the car. The car was stolen on April 29, 1934. On May 23, 1934 the posse had been waiting for approximately seven hours when at about 9:10 a.m. they heard a machine approaching at a high rate of speed. It is not clear whether the officers stepped into the road to challenge them. But when the car stopped they were told to give up."

Homer describes her as the formidable, venerable majestic princess of the underworld, who carries into effect the curses of men upon the souls of the dead. Persephone was married to Hades, the god of the underworld. [ 1] The myth of her abduction represents her function as the personification of vegetation, which shoots forth in spring and withdraws into the earth after harvest; hence, she is also associated with spring as well as the fertility of vegetation. Similar myths appear in the Orient, in the cults of male gods like Attis, Adonis, and Osiris, [2] and in Minoan Crete."

"text": "You might be interested in attending a big college, but just how big are you thinking? Some schools have over 40,000 undergraduates, making them the size of a small city. These schools can provide great opportunities to students, but they can also be a little overwhelming. In this article, I’ll give you a list of the biggest colleges for undergraduates in the US along with student feedback about what it’s really like to be part of such a large college community. Why Are These Colleges So Big? Most of the biggest colleges are public state universities. It makes sense that these schools attract the most students because they provide incentives for students who live in the state to attend. The largest schools are located in the most populous states. Thus, California, Texas, and Florida (the three most populous states in the US) are home to many of the schools on this list. These schools are also large because they are meccas for academic research and offer a wide variety of programs to students."

For example, a subset of actuarial science uses math to assess different levels of risk, helping health insurance companies determine appropriate payment rates for their customers. As a branch of mathematics that is purely practical, some have also joked that actuarial science is like “actual math. ”Given the discipline’s preference for applied rather than theoretical concepts, there is no end to the career opportunities for students who choose it as a major. However, just how far you can go in the field – and what types of job offers you’ll get – depend a great deal on where you choose to go to school. Because of the versatility of the program, you could find actuarial degrees within a college’s business, mathematics, finance, or even statistics departments. As a result, some programs are better suited for students with aspirations on Wall Street, while others offer better preparation for future insurance analysts. The choice is yours to make, but that doesn’t mean we can’t help narrow the field for you a little bit."

Starting in the late 17th century, French explorers arrived. Spain took over in 1763 and a trading company led by Pierre Laclede and Auguste Chouteau established the settlement of St. Louis in February 1764. It attracted French settlers leaving Illinois when Britain took control east of the Mississippi. The city grew in population due to its location as a trading post on the Mississippi River, as the western fur trade was lucrative. The city played a small role in the American Revolutionary War and became part of the U. S. through the Louisiana Purchase in 1803. With its connection through the Ohio River to the east, the Mississippi to the south and north, and the Missouri to the west, St. Louis was ideally located to become the main base of interregional trade. In the 1840s, it became a destination for massive immigration by Irish and Germans. Some native-born Americans reacted with fear to the newcomers, adopting nativist sentiments."

Spanish archives in Havana reveal there were 40 people and seven plantations in Florissant at the time of the 1787 census. The village, called \"\"Fleurissant,\"\" or \"\"Blooming\"\" in English, by its French settlers and \"\"St. Ferdinand\"\" by its Spanish rulers, was a typical French village with its commons and common fields.

The warning came from Robert Reich, a professor of social and economic policy at Brandeis University and a labour secretary in President Clinton's administration. He was describing what he called \"\"the destruction of public higher education in America, and how the UK can avoid the same fate\"\". Delivering the annual Higher Education Policy Institute lecture, Prof Reich said that from the 1950s to the 70s in the US, there had been a huge increase in federal and state funding for public universities. Listen to the lecture from the Royal Institution The rhetoric - prompted by competition with the Soviet Union - had been about the importance of higher education for the country as a whole, if not the world. Public funding covered more or less all the tuition fees for poorer students. Upward mobility But since the threat from the Soviet Union had receded, spending on education had declined markedly and tuition fees had gone up - since 1980 by 107% in real terms, after accounting for inflation. Meanwhile grants had been cut so they typically covered only 57% of the tuition expenses at public universities. The rhetoric had shifted to emphasise personal or family investment not dissimilar from an investment in the stock market. Another related theme that higher education should provide a possibility of upward mobility for talented individuals - meritocracy but not necessarily for the good of society as a whole. \"\""

The term is derived from the Greek province of the same name which dates to antiquity; the province's mountainous topography and sparse population of pastoralists later caused the word Arcadia to develop into a poetic byword for an idyllic vision of unspoiled wilderness. Arcadia is a poetic shaped space associated with bountiful natural splendor and harmony. [ 1] The 'Garden' is often inhabited by shepherds. The concept also figures in Renaissance mythology.

[ 6]In 1934, Bonnie and Clyde were sought throughout the Southeast for their robbing banks and associated crimes. They were killed near Arcadia by law-enforcement officers from Bienville Parish and Dallas County, Texas. Their bodies were brought for embalming to the former Conger Funeral Home in Arcadia. As word of the killing of the outlaws spread, large crowds of onlookers were drawn to the funeral home, which was also a furniture store. The owner's wife, Inez Conger, grew so angry at the many gawkers standing on the store's tables and chairs to try to get a look at the bodies, that she began splashing formaldehyde around the store in an attempt to drive the crowds away."

S. state of California. As of the 2010 census, the population was 132,646. [ 4] The county seat is Eureka. [ 5]Humboldt County comprises the Eureka– Arcata – Fortuna, CA Micropolitan Statistical Area. It is located on the far North Coast ~270 miles north of San Francisco. Its primary population centers of Eureka, the site of College of the Redwoods main campus, and the smaller college town of Arcata, site of Humboldt State University, are located adjacent to Humboldt Bay, California's second largest natural bay. [ 6] Area cities and towns are known for hundreds of ornate examples of Victorian architecture. Humboldt County is a densely forested mountainous and rural county with about 110 miles of coastline (more than any other county in the state), [7] situated along the Pacific coast in Northern California 's rugged Coast (Mountain) Ranges. With nearly 1,500,000 acres (6,100 km 2) of combined public and private forest in production, Humboldt County alone produces twenty percent of total volume and thirty percent of the total value of all forest products produced in California. [ 8] The county contains over forty percent of all remaining old growth Coast Redwood forests, [9] the vast majority of which is protected or strictly conserved within dozens of national, state, and local forests and parks, totaling approximately 680,000 acres (over 1,000 square miles).

Please note that Metropolitan Statistical Areas, Metropolitan Divisions, and Micropolitan Statistical Areas throughout this website are commonly referred to as Metropolitan Areas. Metropolitan Area Definition and Delineations Current Metropolitan Area List Historical Metropolitan Area List Metropolitan Area Definition and Delineations OMB establishes and maintains the delineations of Metropolitan Statistical Areas, Metropolitan Divisions, and Micropolitan Statistical Areas solely for statistical purposes. These new Metropolitan Areas become the standard geographic areas for which economic data are produced by cooperative programs of the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The 2010 standards replace and supersede the 2000 standards for defining Metropolitan and Micropolitan Statistical Areas. OMB's 2010 standards provide for the identification of the following types of statistical areas in California: Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSA) have at least one urbanized area of 50,000 or more population, plus adjacent territory that has a high degree of social and economic integration with the core as measured by commuting ties. Metropolitan Divisions (MD) - If specified criteria are met, a Metropolitan Statistical Area containing a single core with a population of 2.5 million or more may be subdivided to form smaller groupings of counties. In California, there are five Metropolitan Divisions that combine into two MSA, one in Southern California and the other in the Bay Area. The EDD publishes data at the MD level to maintain the same geographic configuration for these two MSAs that are currently published. Data for the two MSAs will be published at the BLS website."

Cafe Mokka, like Finnish Country Sauna and Tubs, is a fixture in the daily life of Arcata, California. Besides it's standing as a mecca for conversation and cultural stimulation, it is Humboldt County's oldest coffeehouse and is proud to serve \"\"pre fad\"\" old world style expresso drinks. Sauna, tub or coffeehouse patrons can relax by the fireplace or at tables outside around a pond in the middle of a Scandinavian wood of birch and conifer trees. Our fireplace is burning on cold days and the espresso machine is always ready. We feature a variety of pastries, Scandinavian open-face sandwiches and soups with fresh bread. Beverages include espresso drinks, chai, Italian sodas and a wide variety of teas and juices."

We’ve had reports of officers ticketing sleeping drivers for idling their trucks at truck stops- most recently truck stops in the Fresno area. Watch out! Thanks, Mike D., for the latest update!Many California weigh station locations have signs on the roadway leading up to them that rental and delivery trucks must enter open weigh stations. Pre Pass trucks that receive a green light in California must still enter an open weigh station if they are pulling an oversize/overweight (even permitted) load except LCVs operating with an annual permit that receive a green light. They must also enter an open weigh station if they are operating on a temporary permit to haul hazardous waste/materials. Weigh stations in California seem to close if the officers realize the ramps are full. Maybe they monitor the cb- it often seems that when drivers start complaining about it, they close the scales. If you’re lucky, you’ll be the one driving by. California weigh stations take quite a bit of time to cross- the speed limits are low and the weighing is slow."

"text": "See all USA departure airports for flights to California Best Time to Fly to California When to fly to California depends on where in California you’re going. The state’s climate varies dramatically, so if you're looking for cheap trips to California, it's best to choose a city first and search flights during the off-season. Peak Season: The peak season for California vacations is the summer. Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Napa Valley greet summertime travelers with warm weather and dry days. Off Season: Winter is the low season for LA, Anaheim, San Francisco, and wine country. However, winter in San Francisco is when the ballet and opera seasons are in full swing. Wine country is also fun to visit in fall, when the wineries are in production, and spring, when the flowers are in bloom. When you should take a flight to California Know this before booking California flights: If America is the land of opportunity, California is the state of chance. California showed great prospect as far as back as the 1800s, when a settler struck gold at Sutter’s Mill and California quickly became the land of wealth. The effects of the California Gold Rush were monumental and today, the coastal state continues to welcome visitors booking airline tickets to California for a greater opportunity, or for just plain fun."

"text": "Advisor Intelligence Ideas from financial advisors Opinions expressed by Forbes Contributors are their own. Investing 12/01/2014 @ 10:18AM 62,466 views The ABCs Of Business Development Companies Kevin Mahn , Contributor There has been a lot of buzz about business development companies (BDC) of late so I thought I’d provide an overview of the product type and the industry as a whole. A BDC is a form of publicly registered company in the United States that provides financing to small and mid-sized businesses. This form of company was created by Congress in 1980 as an amendment to the Investment Company Act of 1940. As a result, Congress created a new category of closed-end funds known as a business development company. BDCs are essentially publicly traded closed-end funds that make investments in private, or in some cases public companies, typically with lower trading volumes, with investment objectives of providing for the possibility of capital appreciation and current income. BDCs are investment companies and answer to an independent board of directors. BDCs, which essentially can be viewed as a hybrid between a traditional investment company and an operating company, represent a transparent portfolio of loans, similar in some sense to private equity or venture capital, which can be traded publicly generally without restriction or back-end fees. Publicly filing firms may elect to be regulated as a BDC if they meet certain requirements of the Investment Company Act. One such requirement is that a BDC must maintain at least 70% of its investments in eligible assets before investing in non-eligible assets."

"text": "\"Income Investing Trouble Ahead For High-Yielding BDC Sector – Fitch By Michael Aneiro Nov. 10, 2014 12:59 p.m. ETFitch Ratings doesn't like what it sees ahead for business development companies, as the rating agency has slapped a negative outlook on the sector for 2015, down from a stable outlook this year. Fitch recently published its 2015 outlook for BDCs and sees some growing challenges. From Fitch: BDCs have been significant beneficiaries of the low interest rate environment, with their higher debt and equity yields providing ample growth capital. [ Fitch] believes that the adverse effects of this growth in a low-yield environment are likely to pressure certain BDC ratings over the outlook horizon. Underwriting conditions remain fiercely competitive in the middle market, reflected by tight yield spreads, higher leverage, and weaker covenant packages. Fitch is increasingly focused on BDC portfolio company trends including leverage, interest coverage, EBITDA, and capital structure position to assess which BDCs may be reaching for yield. As BDCs look to offset yield pressure, several firms are employing strategies that Fitch believes evidence a higher risk appetite. These include increased balance sheet leverage, a focus on new industry verticals, the introduction of senior secured loan programs, and a movement down the investment capital structure. Fitch says the steady decline in portfolio yields has put pressure on dividend coverage ratios and will continue to do so. Fitch says several BDCs have expanded into new areas, such as aircraft leasing and venture lending, a move Fitch says is \"\"generally driven by an expectation for more attractive risk-adjusted returns given favorable supply/demand dynamics.\"\""

There is no guarantee that these forecasts will be correct. Before you read the strategies, it’s a good idea to get to know these characters because they’ll affect the price of every option you trade. Keep in mind as you’re getting acquainted, the examples we use are “ideal world” examples. And as Plato would certainly tell you, in the real world things tend not to work quite as perfectly as in an ideal one. What is Delta? Beginning option traders sometimes assume that when a stock moves $1, the price of options based on that stock will move more than $1. That’s a little silly when you really think about it. The option costs much less than the stock. Why should you be able to reap even more benefit than if you owned the stock?"

How to Turn $4,000 into $20,000 with Options Trading Understanding Option Pricing Top 10 Option Trading Tips Best Option Brokers Put Option Definition: A put option is a security that you buy when you think the price of a stock or index is going to go down. More specifically, a put option is the right to SELL 100 shares of a stock or an index at a certain price by a certain date. That \"\"certain price\"\" is known as the strike price, and that \"\"certain date\"\" is known as the expiry or expiration date. A put option, like a call option, is defined by the following 4 characteristics: There is an underlying stock or index to which the option relates There is an expiration date of the put option There is a strike price of the put option The put option is the right to SELL the underlying stock or index at the strike price. This contrasts with a call option which is the right to BUY the underlying stock or index at the strike price. It is called an \"\"put\"\" because it gives you the right to \"\"put\"\", or sell, the stock or index to someone else. A put option differs from a call option in that a call is the right to buy the stock and the put is the right to sell the stock. So, again, what is a put?"

"text": "Wicker Park / Bucktown - A Chicago Neighborhood Guide Chicagotraveler Information Map The History of Wicker Park and Bucktown Wicker Park-Bucktown Feature Wicker Park-Bucktown Reviews Wicker Park-Bucktown Map Wicker Park Art Fest Chicago The Wicker Park/Bucktown area became part of Chicago in 1837; since then, it has undergone major changes to become the popular, lively neighborhood it is today. In 1870, brothers Charles G. Wicker and Joel H. Wicker, both developers, bought 80 acres of land and began to build a neighborhood by constructing a drainage system and building streets. They donated 4 acres to the city as a Chicago public park. The city created a lake in the center of the park and added landscaping; this 4-acre park is called Wicker Park and gives the neighborhood its name. After the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, many residents in the area began to build new homes out of brick and stone, since they had experienced firsthand how easily wood burned. These homes were built in a variety of architectural styles and were centered around the 4-acre park, creating a serene, lovely residential area. Some of these residents were quite well-known for being at the forefront of Chicago growth; they included the Pritzkers, Saul Bellows and Nelson Algren. Chicago's Wicker Park/Bucktown What made Wicker Park/Bucktown unique from the beginning was that there was a varied mix of inhabitants living next to one another; alongside the wealthier families was a working class population, and everyone hailed from a different part of the world. There were Germans and Scandinavians, Poles and Jews, African Americans and Eastern Europeans. In the 1930’s, however, the wealthier residents left the area for more gentrified neighborhoods and their mansions became divided into apartments and boarding homes."

"text": "You might have had success beating the market by trading stocks using a disciplined process anticipating a nice move either up or down. Many traders have also gained the confidence to make money in the stock market by identifying one or two good stocks posed to make a big move soon. But if you don't know how to take advantage of that movement, you might be left in the dust. If this sounds like you, maybe it's time to consider using options. This article will explore some simple factors to consider if you plan to trade options to take advantage of stock movements. Option Pricing Before venturing into the world of trading options, investors should have a good understanding of the factors determining the value of an option. These include the current stock price, the intrinsic value, time to expiration or the time value, volatility, interest rates and cash dividends paid. ( For related reading, see: Option Basics . ) There are several options pricing models that use these parameters to determine the fair market value of the option. Of these, the Black-Scholes model is the most widely used."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search This article is about investments in private equity through publicly traded vehicles. For Private Investments in Public Equity or PIPEs, see Private investment in public equity. Publicly traded private equity (also referred to as publicly quoted private equity or publicly listed private equity) refers to an investment firm or investment vehicle, which makes investments conforming to one of the various private equity strategies, and is listed on a public stock exchange. There are fundamentally two separate opportunities that private equity firms pursued in the public markets.

[ 1]Typically, BDCs are structured similar to real estate investment trusts (REITs) in that the BDC structure reduces or eliminates corporate income tax. In return, REITs are required to distribute 95% of their income, which may be taxable to its investors. As of the end of 2008, among the largest BDCs (by market value, excluding Apollo Investment Corp, discussed elsewhere) are: American Capital Strategies ( NASDAQ : ACAS), Ares Capital Corp. ( NASDAQ : ARCC), Black Rock Kelso Capital Corp, Gladstone Investment Corp ( NASDAQ : GAIN) and Kohlberg Capital Corp ( NASDAQ : KCAP)."

Here’s a brief description of 10 key option terms you should know. Call Option: Also known simply as a “Call,” a call option gives the buyer the right but not the obligation to buy the underlying security or asset at a certain price within a defined period of time. The call buyer thus benefits when the underlying security or asset increases in price. ( Option) Exercise: For a call buyer, option exercise means executing the right to buy the underlying security at the exercise price or strike price. For a put buyer, option exercise means executing the right to sell the underlying security at the exercise price or strike price. Exercise Price or Strike Price: The price at which the underlying asset can be purchased (for a call option) or sold (for a put option); the exercise price or strike price is determined at the time of formation of the option contract. Expiration Date: The last day of validity for an options contract, after which it expires worthless. The time left to expiration is a key determinant of the price of an option; in general terms, the longer the time to expiration, the higher the option price. In the money (ITM): A term that indicates the option has intrinsic value, i.e. for a call option, the market price of the underlying security is higher than the exercise price, and for a put option, the market price is lower than a put option."

"title": "http://www.wisegeek.org/what-is-an-arch-bridge.htm\nWhat is an Arch Bridge?",
"text": "An arch bridge is a type of architectural structure that relies on a curved, semi-circular shape for support. Most arches distribute weight equally and are an attractive option for bridges because they can span great distances without needing posts or other weight-bearing mechanisms to be sunk into the ground. Most post and beam bridges, by contrast, need columns or other supports placed at regular intervals. Arch bridges are common across wide rivers, gorges, and other places where it may not be practical to set up intermediary supports. Source of Strength The strength of this type of bridge comes from its shape. As the arch presses downward from its top, the ground pushes upward with an equal force. Extra support is also often placed along the abutments, or sides, of the structure to keep the arch from bending outwards when heavy loads press down on it, but in most cases nothing needs to touch the ground at any point along the span. As a result, the arch is always under compression, causing it to become rigid and maintain its strength. Ad How They’re Built These sorts of bridges have to be built in such a way so as to handle the strong compression forces that help them keep their shape, which often takes a bit of engineering expertise. There are a couple of different techniques, but most involve starting with a basic form and then adding supports along the way."

In late 2010, additional categories will debut with over 800 of the highest bridges in North America as well as the 50 tallest bridges of the world. Throughout the history of bridges, the discussion of size has almost always focused on length - usually of the main span. This is natural given that the design and construction of a long span is usually the greatest challenge to an engineer who is attempting to cross over a deep body of water with a limited number of supports and the least amount of material. Of less interest to bridge engineers but just as effective aesthetically is the height of a bridge. A vast, vertical void below the structure seems to make the mass of the bridge more gravity defying, more surreal, more magical. The Royal Gorge Bridge in the U. S. state of Colorado - The record holder from 1929 - 2001Up until the new millennium, there were few bridges on earth that even came close to challenging the height record of the Royal Gorge suspension bridge in the U.

For purposes of analysis, trusses are assumed to be pin jointed where the straight components meet. This assumption means that members of the truss (chords, verticals and diagonals) will act only in tension or compression. A more complex analysis is required where rigid joints impose significant bending loads upon the elements, as in a Vierendeel truss. In the bridge illustrated in the infobox at the top, vertical members are in tension, lower horizontal members in tension, shear, and bending, outer diagonal and top members are in compression, while the inner diagonals are in tension."

Delicate Arch in Arches National Park, Utah, United States A natural arch, natural bridge, or (less commonly) rock arch is a natural rock formation where an arch has formed with an opening underneath. Natural arches commonly form where inland cliffs, coastal cliffs, fins or stacks are subject to erosion from the sea, rivers or weathering ( subaerial processes). Most natural arches are formed from narrow fins and sea stacks composed of sandstone or limestone with steep, often vertical, cliff faces. The formations become narrower due to erosion over geologic time scales. The softer rock stratum erodes away creating rock shelters, or alcoves, on opposite sides of the formation beneath the relatively harder stratum, or caprock, above it. The alcoves erode further into the formation eventually meeting underneath the harder caprock layer, thus creating an arch."

Definition of a parabola Formula of a parabola Arch Bridges Horizontal Axis Shifting the Vertex Applications The parabola has many applications in situations where: Radiation often needs to be concentrated at one point (e.g. radio telescopes, pay TV dishes, solar radiation collectors) or Radiation needs to be transmitted from a single point into a wide parallel beam (e.g. headlight reflectors). Here is an animation showing how parallel radio waves are collected by a parabolic antenna. The parallel rays reflect off the antenna and meet at a point (the red dot, labelled F), called the focus.

"text": "\"From Highest Bridges.com New River Gorge Bridge Fayetteville, West Virginia, United States 876 feet high / 267 meters high 1,700 foot span / 518 meter span 1977A monumental steel arch built on a grand scale not often seen in bridge construction, the New River Gorge bridge in the U. S. state of West Virginia opened in 1977 as the highest and longest arch bridge in the world with a height of 876 feet (267 mtrs) and a main span of 1,700 feet (518 mtrs). Several Chinese bridges eroded these records away, first in 2001 when the Beipanjiang railway arch bridge opened with a greater height of 902 feet (275 mtrs) and then in 2003 when the Lupu arch bridge opened in Shanghai with a longer main span of 1,804 feet (550 mtrs). Then in 2009, China finally opened an even higher 4-lane road arch in the form of the Zhijinghe bridge with a deck 965 feet (294 mtrs) above the water - 90 feet (27 mtrs) higher then the West Virginia span. Built at a cost of 37 million dollars, the bridge was designed by the large engineering firm of Michael Baker, Jr. and constructed by the legendary American Bridge Company. The massive span itself was built by using a highline with two 330 foot (101 mtr) tall towers some 3,500 feet (1,067 mtrs) apart. Cable stays anchored into a temporary “deadman” on either side of the canyon held the two halves in place until the arch was closed. Abandoned coal mine shafts just above the massive arch foundations on both sides of the gorge were filled with grout to prevent the possibility of unwanted ground settlement. The most unusual design element of the bridge was the decision to use a special type of steel that develops a brown colored rust coating that naturally protects the steel. It saves the West Virginia Department of Transportation a million dollars for every time they would have had to paint the bridge as well as giving the span a natural, rugged look that blends into the tree-filled surroundings. The tapered, vertical spandrel piers are another pleasing detail as they add a lightness to the structure as well as saving weight."

"title": "http://www.cbdg.org.uk/intro3.asp\nTypes of Concrete Bridges",
"text": "Types of Concrete Bridges Arch Bridges Arch bridges derive their strength from the fact that vertical loads on the arch generate compressive forces in the arch ring, which is constructed of materials well able to withstand these forces. The compressive forces in the arch ring result in inclined thrusts at the abutments, and it is essential that arch abutments are well founded or buttressed to resist the vertical and horizontal components of these thrusts. If the supports spread apart the arch falls down. The Romans knew all about this. Traditionally, arch bridges were constructed of stone, brick or mass concrete since these materials are very strong in compression and the arch could be configured so that tensile stresses did not develop. Modern concrete arch bridges utilise prestressing or reinforcing to resist the tensile stresses which can develop in slender arch rings. The shape attracted the attention of many of the early pioneers of concrete construction. In 1930, Freyssinet was responsible for a spectacular arched bridge at Plougastel in France and three years later, Swiss engineer, Robert Maillart created the famously elegant Schwandbach bridge in which slender cross-walls tie the arch to the horizontally curved roadway. Reinforced Slab Bridges For short spans, a solid reinforced concrete slab, generally cast in-situ rather than precast, is the simplest design. It is also cost-effective, since the flat, level soffit means that falsework and formwork are also simple."

"text": "For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. The ground which pushes back on the abutments creates a resistance which is passed from stone to stone, until it is eventually pushing on the key stone which is supporting the load. Arch types are few -- after all, an arch is an arch is an arch. The only real subcategories come in the form of cosmetic design. There are, for example, Roman, Baroque and Renaissance arches, all of which are architecturally different but structurally the same. Arches are fascinating in that they are a truly natural form of bridge. It is the shape of the structure that gives it its strength. An arch bridge doesn't need additional supports or cables. In fact, an arch made of stone doesn't even need mortar. Ancient Romans built arch bridges (and aqueducts) that are still standing, and structurally sound, today."

Then identify an archetypal story and apply it to a literary work with which you are familiar. Posted by Mrs. Lacey at 3:07 PM16 comments: Grey_spear said... An archetype is a model situation, person, or idea that has been copied or emulated many times and is widely recognizable. The most evident archetype I could think of is the story of the underdog. This story consists of a righteous protagonist who triumphs when faced with unbeatable odds and insurmountable obstacles. This story has been around since David slayed Goliath and possibly earlier. This has been copied innumerable times in fiction and in stories based on real life events. There are countless movies and books based on real life sports teams who make an unexpected victory or have an surprisingly outstanding season. Stories where the winners always win and the losers always lose would become boring and distasteful to us, preaching invariance. Somewhere along the lines history has revealed to us that we find it amusing to watch the weak triumph over the strong, for any number of reasons."

"text": "It is widely presumed that myth and religion are two different things. To the extent that religion involves a whole array of non-myth elements – a moral code, a faith in a supreme being, and an obedience to the Church – this is true. However, if we focus on the primary element in religion, namely the Supreme Being (or God), then religion and myth become synonymous. Indeed, the conclusion of my life-long study of religion is that God is actually the personification of myth. God – the personification of myth? The idea will sound weird to modern ears, and many people will think that I am denigrating the Supreme Being. After all, the word ‘myth’, in modern linguistics, is held to be synonymous with a fiction or a lie. But this is not my definition of myth. Far from it. In fact, the word ‘myth’ derives from the ancient Greek word muthos, which meant simply an ‘utterance’ or a ‘traditional tale’."

"text": "\"5 Common Character Archetypes in Literature Introduction: What is a Character Archetype? You may have heard the word \"\"archetype\"\" tossed around before, but it's possible that you haven't quite learned the meaning of this word yet. Simply put, an archetype is something that reoccurs in literature and in art. This something can be a symbol, a theme, a setting, or a character. This article focuses on character archetypes—that is, character types that pop up across all genres of literature, both classic and contemporary. Everyone is familiar with these guys, because everywhere we turn, there they are! Here's a list of some of the most commonly found archetypes in literature. The Hero Summary: The hero is always the protagonist (though the protagonist is not always a hero). Traditionally speaking, the hero has been male, though fortunately there are more female heroes appearing in contemporary literature (think Katniss Everdeen and Lisbeth Salander ). The hero is after some ultimate objective and must encounter and overcome obstacles along the way to achieving this goal."

"text": "The Connection Between Archetypes And Brand By: Margaret Hartwell | January 7, 2016The following is an excerpt from the book Archetypes In Branding: A Toolkit for Creatives and Strategists by Margaret Pott Hartwell and Joshua C. Chen. Available now from My Design Shop. As both a face and a function, brand archetypes can reveal how a brand shows up in the world, how it is motivated and what triggers it. Very simply, archetypes can facilitate the understanding of a brand and why it attracts certain customers. Consider Margaret Mark and Carol Pearson’s assertion in The Hero and the Outlaw: Building Extraordinary Brands Through the Power of Archetypes: “Archetypes are strange attractors of consciousness. You attract customers when your brand is congruent with an archetype that is either dominant or emerging in their consciousness. ”An archetypal approach to branding will help humanize the process of being in business in general, and branding in particular, by enabling greater humanity within all stakeholder relationships. While archetypal stories have enormous impact in marketing and communications, there is also commensurate value in observing how archetypes function within business and leadership style and, subsequently, how they affect the authenticity and trust of a brand and its outreach efforts. An expanded definition of archetypes Going a bit deeper, we think it’s worth including some of the experts’ definitions of archetype:“An archetype is a universally familiar character or situation that transcends time, place, culture, gender and age. It represents an eternal truth."

Share Flipboard Email Print Tony Burns/Lonely Planet Images/Getty Imagesby Barbara O'Brien Updated April 07, 2018It is often asked if there are gods in Buddhism. The short answer is no, but also yes, depending on what you mean by \"\"gods. \"\" It also is often asked if it is all right for a Buddhist to believe in God, meaning the creator God as celebrated in Christianity, Judaism, Islam and other philosophies of monotheism. Again, this depends on what you mean by \"\"God.\"\" As most monotheists define God, the answer is probably \"\"no.\"\" But there are lots of ways to understand the principle of God. Buddhism is sometimes called an \"\"atheistic\"\" religion, although some of us prefer \"\"non-theistic\"\"--meaning that believing in a God or gods really isn't the point. But it's certainly the case that there are all kinds of god-like creatures and beings called devas populating the early scriptures of Buddhism. Vajrayana Buddhism still makes use of tantric deities in its esoteric practices."

Archetypes are literary devices that employ the use of a famous concept, person or object to convey a wealth of meaning. Archetypes are immediately identifiable and even though they run the risk of being overused, they are still the best examples of their kind.

When used by a male author, the character is referred to as a Gary Stu or Marty Stu. Origin The name “Mary Sue” is taken from a character [10] that appeared in Paula Smith’s [18] parody Star Trek fanfiction titled “A Trekkie’s Tale.” [ 12] Originally published in the December 1973 issue of the fanzine The Menagerie [16], the 200 word piece intended to critique the abundance of Star Trek fanfiction Smith saw in which adolescent girls become the youngest member of the Starfleet crew whom every canon character fell in love with. [ 17] It was paired with a drawing of wide-eyed young girl with braces to illustrate what the character would have looked like. “Gee, golly, gosh, gloriosky,” thought Mary Sue as she stepped on the bridge of the Enterprise. “ Here I am, the youngest lieutenant in the fleet – only fifteen and a half years old.” Captain Kirk came up to her. “"

The word “cliché” was originally French for the sound of a printing plate, which prints the same thing over and over. Using clichés is considered bad writing and speaking because they make it sound like you didn’t put any thought into your words. Good writers and speakers try to use thoughtful and original language rather than clichés in their work. Synonyms for cliché include platitudes and banalities. II. Examples of ClichéBecause clichés are, by definition, common and overused, they can be found frequently but you may not notice them because we take them for granted. Here are a few examples: Example 1This image of a cloud starts with a common cliché: Every cloud has a silver lining Which means that even in a bad situation, you can usually find something good. The rest of the cloud is made of other popular clichés:“ Diamond in the rough “: something or somebody with a lot of potential.“"

"text": "Chapter 01Interpretation and Definition of Classical Mythology THE PROBLEM OF DEFINING MYTHThe establishment of a single, comprehensive definition of myth has proved impossible to attain. No one definition can satisfactorily embrace all the various kinds of stories that can legitimately be classed as myths on the basis of one criterion or another. The attempt to define myth in itself, however intractable a proposition, serves to highlight the very qualities of the stories that make them so different from one another. THE MEANING OF THE WORD MYTH“Myth” is derived from the Greek word mythos, which can mean tale, or story, and that is essentially what a myth is: a story. For many, such a general definition proves to be of no real service, and some would add the qualification that a myth must be a “traditional” tale or story, one that has proved of so lasting a value that it is continually retold, through whatever medium the artist/storyteller chooses to employ. For further clarification, distinctions are often made between “myth,” i.e., “true myth” or “myth proper,” and “saga” or “legend,” and “folktale. ”MYTH, SAGA OR LEGEND, AND FOLKTALEMyth: not a comprehensive term for all stories but only for those primarily concerned with the gods and their relations with mortals. Saga or legend: a story containing a kernel of historical truth, despite later fictional accretions. Folktale: a story, usually of oral origin, that contains elements of the fantastic, often in the pattern of the adventure of a hero or a heroine. Its main function is entertainment, but it can also educate with all sorts of insights."

Or at least that’s how it can seem when you turn on the TV or flip through a random book. Many of these characters come from flawed archetypes that writers use thoughtlessly; these aren’t good ideas done poorly but bad ideas to start with, and our stories would be better without them. We’ve touched on this issue before at Mythcreants but barely scratched the surface. With so many bad archetypes and so little time, let’s jump right in.1. The Overpowered Savant In Angel, Fred is so smart, she knows how to defeat an enemy before the other characters have even identified it. Unfortunately, she’s been through so much trauma that she’s not stable. The team can’t count on her smarts in a crisis. Fred eventually works through her issues and learns to control herself, but once she does, her godlike intelligence is nowhere to be seen. In Heroes, Hiro Nakamura has the incredible power to manipulate space and time."

[ show] Part of a series of articles on the paranormal Carl Gustav Jung Synchronicity ( German: Synchronizität) is a concept, first introduced by analytical psychologist Carl Jung, which holds that events are \"\"meaningful coincidences\"\" if they occur with no causal relationship yet seem to be meaningfully related. [ 1] During his career, Jung furnished several different definitions of it. [ 2] Jung defined synchronicity as an \"\"acausal connecting (togetherness) principle,\"\" \"\"meaningful coincidence\"\", and \"\"acausal parallelism.\"\" He introduced the concept as early as the 1920s but gave a full statement of it only in 1951 in an Eranos lecture. [ 3]In 1952 Jung published a paper \"\"Synchronizität als ein Prinzip akausaler Zusammenhänge\"\" (Synchronicity – An Acausal Connecting Principle) [4] in a volume which also contained a related study by the physicist and Nobel laureate Wolfgang Pauli, [5] who was sometimes critical of Jung's ideas. [ 6] Jung's belief was that, just as events may be connected by causality, they may also be connected by meaning. Events connected by meaning need not have an explanation in terms of causality, which does not generally contradict the Axiom of Causality. Jung used the concept in arguing for the existence of the paranormal. ["

Other myths, however, seem merely to narrate the deities' daily activities -- their love affairs and pleasures, their jealousies and rages, their ambitions and schemes, and their quarrels and battles. Myths, legends, folktales, and fables. We commonly use the word \"\"myth\"\" interchangeably with the following terms, but some authorities have made distinctions (which, like many definitions, might not be valid in all cases): Legends. Unlike many myths, legends generally do not have religious or supernatural content. Legends emphasize the story more than the significance of the story; we might still gain a philosophical and moral meaning from a legend, but we probably will not feel the archetypal intensity which permeates myths. An example of a legend is the tale of Atlantis. Folklore. While legends and myths might be embraced as true stories, folktales are generally known to be fictitious."

I get these characters pretty well already, but I want to bring out the unexpected in them. The things I don't know I know, or haven't thought of yet.

"text": "Archetype Archetype Definition In literature, an archetype is a typical character, an action, or a situation that seems to represent universal patterns of human nature. An archetype, also known as “universal symbol ,” may be a character, a theme, a symbol, or even a setting. Many literary critics are of the opinion that archetypes – which have a common and recurring representation in a particular human culture, or entire human race – shape the structure and function of a literary work. Carl Jung, Swiss psychologist, argued that the root of an archetype is in the “collective unconscious” of mankind. The phrase “collective unconscious” refers to experiences shared by a race or culture. Such experiences include such things as love, religion, death, birth, life, struggle, and survival. These experiences exist in the subconscious of every individual, and are re-created in literary works, or in other forms of art. Examples of Archetype in Literature Below is the analysis of common archetypes that exist in literature. Archetypes in Characters Example #1: The Hero He or she is a character who predominantly exhibits goodness, and struggles against evil in order to restore harmony and justice to society. Examples of hero include Beowulf, in the book Beowulf, Hercules, in the book Hercules, and d’Artagnan, from The Three Musketeers."

An archetype is a model situation, person, or idea that has been copied or emulated many times and is widely recognizable. The most evident archetype I could think of is the story of the underdog. This story consists of a righteous protagonist who triumphs when faced with unbeatable odds and insurmountable obstacles. This story has been around since David slayed Goliath and possibly earlier. This has been copied innumerable times in fiction and in stories based on real life events. There are countless movies and books based on real life sports teams who make an unexpected victory or have an surprisingly outstanding season. Stories where the winners always win and the losers always lose would become boring and distasteful to us, preaching invariance. Somewhere along the lines history has revealed to us that we find it amusing to watch the weak triumph over the strong, for any number of reasons."

When used by a male author, the character is referred to as a Gary Stu or Marty Stu. Origin The name “Mary Sue” is taken from a character [10] that appeared in Paula Smith’s [18] parody Star Trek fanfiction titled “A Trekkie’s Tale.” [ 12] Originally published in the December 1973 issue of the fanzine The Menagerie [16], the 200 word piece intended to critique the abundance of Star Trek fanfiction Smith saw in which adolescent girls become the youngest member of the Starfleet crew whom every canon character fell in love with. [ 17] It was paired with a drawing of wide-eyed young girl with braces to illustrate what the character would have looked like. “Gee, golly, gosh, gloriosky,” thought Mary Sue as she stepped on the bridge of the Enterprise. “ Here I am, the youngest lieutenant in the fleet – only fifteen and a half years old.” Captain Kirk came up to her. “"

"text": "The Connection Between Archetypes And Brand By: Margaret Hartwell | January 7, 2016The following is an excerpt from the book Archetypes In Branding: A Toolkit for Creatives and Strategists by Margaret Pott Hartwell and Joshua C. Chen. Available now from My Design Shop. As both a face and a function, brand archetypes can reveal how a brand shows up in the world, how it is motivated and what triggers it. Very simply, archetypes can facilitate the understanding of a brand and why it attracts certain customers. Consider Margaret Mark and Carol Pearson’s assertion in The Hero and the Outlaw: Building Extraordinary Brands Through the Power of Archetypes: “Archetypes are strange attractors of consciousness. You attract customers when your brand is congruent with an archetype that is either dominant or emerging in their consciousness. ”An archetypal approach to branding will help humanize the process of being in business in general, and branding in particular, by enabling greater humanity within all stakeholder relationships. While archetypal stories have enormous impact in marketing and communications, there is also commensurate value in observing how archetypes function within business and leadership style and, subsequently, how they affect the authenticity and trust of a brand and its outreach efforts. An expanded definition of archetypes Going a bit deeper, we think it’s worth including some of the experts’ definitions of archetype:“An archetype is a universally familiar character or situation that transcends time, place, culture, gender and age. It represents an eternal truth."

"text": "Page Up | Cambridge Academic Links: Content Page | About? Archetypal Stories In the Poetics, Aristotle (4th century BC) developed the earliest known model of narrative form, based on the ideas of thematic organisation, completeness of form (1450b), and the creating and resolution of tension (1455b). The possibility of being even more specific depends on the validity of identifying characters as types. Aristotle viewed dramatic character in terms of making choices (1450b), so a wrong choice is made because of some defect of character, or 'tragic flaw' (1453a). It's also noted on the mini-guide to structuralism elsewhere on this server that Vladimir Propp's Morphology of the Folktale (1928) identified seven archetypal characters, which he called actants. These are:the villainthe providerthe helperthe princess and her fatherthe dispatcherthe herothe false hero Propp also identified a sequence of 31 functions which could be used to analyse the narrative. The models of Aristotle and Propp have been taken to suggest that all literature may be analysed as the interplay between a limited number of factors involving character and narrative form. This was formalised by the semiotician A. J. Greimas ( Sémantique Structurale, 1966), in his actantial model of narrative, in which overt characters ( acteurs) embody deep-structure functions ( actants ), whose interrelations may provide the framework for all narrative. Similar narratological models have been suggested by other Structuralist theorists, and the notion has been developed further in recent critical theory. A simpler approach has been suggested for practical, rather than theoretical, motives."

In other words their personalities are not well filled out. Most fairy tales seem to rely on the audience to fill in mood, personality, emotions, etc. just as they expect them to fill in visual details on how the characters look (and we seem to do a pretty good job with this). Fairy Tale Characters, as with fairy tales themselves are most often built on a number of fixed formulas which occur over and over again. Some of the more common fairy tale Archetypes include: (Keep in mind that any given character can have more than one archetype – For example the hero of “The Giant who Had No Heart In His Body” is a trickster hero who uses hard work as part of his deception. ) Heroes Hard Working and Polite Hero Many fairy tale heroes don't gain success through brilliance, strength, luck or fate; rather they gain success through hard work. Even when these heroes are given money by fairies or other magical creatures its because they worked for it, or because they were polite to the magical creature.

"text": "Archetypal criticism is a type of literary criticism examining the presence of archetypal characters within a piece of literature. Such characters can be found in works of fiction, long or short, and in more poetic works. The archetypal character is a simple character template recognizable to all readers. Archetypal criticism is a part of social anthropology and psychoanalysis. The idea of character archetypes is based on the works of psychologist Carl Jung. An archetype is essentially a character prototype. Such prototypes find their ways into all modes of literature and story across generations, cultures and languages. While the idea of such basic characters was developed by Jung in the 20th century, the word itself has been in use in England since the 1540s. Jung was from Switzerland and was the first to reject the then pervasive idea of tabula rasa. Tabula rasa is an idea whereby all babies are born as blank slates."

Contents [ show]Main characters Captain Hero Voiced by Jess Harnell A sociopathic, chauvinistic, perverted, antiheroic, heteroflexible, and lecherous parody of Superman (and other superheroes), with a visual style taken from the cartoons of Bruce Timm and Max Fleischer. Most of his humor revolves around his perverse sexual tastes, his tendency toward violence, or his stupidity; there is also a running joke in which he is heavily suggested to be pansexual and interested in necrophilia. Among reality TV archetypes, he represents the macho egotist. Of all the housemates, Captain Hero saw the most character development over the series. In the first season, Hero was a simple character with a fairly minor role on the show; he was introduced in the first episode as simply \"\"another person in the house\"\", and as Harnell puts it, his personality was that of an \"\"overgrown frat guy\"\" whose libido was his main source of humor. Over time, however, he grew considerably more complex; consequently, his role was expanded to the point where he became the most frequently used on the show. \"\" The Other Cousin\"\" was the first episode to focus on Hero, but it was the second season episode \"\"Little Orphan Hero\"\" that proved to be a major turning point for the character. In the episode, Hero, after suffering a nervous breakdown, meets his parents for the first time and sees many long-dormant emotional issues rise to the surface."

Byron works consisted of common themes during the romantics such as high romance and the love of nature and tragic loss. He created the idea of the hero being a tragic figure who is born to desire something that they will never accomplish. Through this Byron created and perfected the idea of the Byronic hero. Byron first used this in his poem, “Childe Harold's Pilgrimage”. The work introduced us to who would late become the example of a Byronic hero or character (Manning)....

"text": "Human Beauty“It is shameful, but nevertheless a fact, that while there are numerous aesthetics, the unavoidable prerequisites of aesthetics in general, the representation of the development of racial ideals of beauty, has not yet been written.” – Alfred Rosenberg Racial standards are ubiquitous in film industries around the world, whose leading actors are selected not solely by acting ability (which can be learned), but significantly by physical appearance (which is mostly inherited). This is not a bad thing in itself, as fans want to aesthetically idealize the leading characters, and it is the actors’ job to portray characters convincingly, so it is a necessity that leading actors look the part, additional to their ability to play the part. The same is true of fashion and advertizing, as a good-looking model is required to idealize the clothes on display or the product/service offered. Of course this does not apply to the membership of the Aryanist movement. Just as the NSDAP inner circle was far from flawless in physical appearance, we have no objection at all to physically unremarkable non-Jews joining us. But this does not mean we should set no standard for appearance as a racial ideal, as some other movements do. What we ourselves look like does not matter, but what type we consider to be beautiful reflects our idealism, and therefore matters a lot. In short, we seek for the members of our movement not necessarily uniformity in appearance, but agreement in vision on human beauty. As Alfred Rosenberg said: “Scarcely one in a thousand among us is shaped completely in accordance with this ideal. …"

Broadly speaking then, a yamato nadeshiko is a \"\"flower of Nipponese womanhood\"\": a woman with attributes that were considered desirable in the neo-Confucian Japan of the nineteenth century and beyond. The term was generally ascribed to noble women with traditional upbringings, but after the formal abolishment of the caste system it passed into wider use among the new \"\"middle classes\"\". Being a yamato nadeshiko revolved around the Confucian concepts of Feudal Loyalty and Filial Piety, which in the latest wave of Confucian revival meant acting for the benefit of one's family and obeying and assisting authority figures (father, husband, sometimes father-in-law or older brothers, as well as older and/or more respected females). Virtues include (d) loyalty, domestic ability, wisdom, maturity, and humility. This is a Japanese ideal, so it might seem strange to westerners, but don't be fooled; the nadeshiko is a wildflower at heart. A properly done yamato nadeshiko will show a subtle, but definitely present, touch of iron, in that she is unwilling to let circumstances hurt the ones she cares about or distract her from her goals or missions."

The attempt to define myth in itself, however intractable a proposition, serves to highlight the very qualities of the stories that make them so different from one another.

For many, such a general definition proves to be of no real service, and some would add the qualification that a myth must be a “traditional” tale or story, one that has proved of so lasting a value that it is continually retold, through whatever medium the artist/storyteller chooses to employ.

Carl Jung understood archetypes as universal, archaic patterns and images that derive from the collective unconscious and are the psychic counterpart of instinct. [ 1] They are inherited potentials which are actualized when they enter consciousness as images or manifest in behavior on interaction with the outside world. [ 2] They are autonomous and hidden forms which are transformed once they enter consciousness and are given particular expression by individuals and their cultures. In theory, Jungian archetypes refer to unclear underlying forms or the archetypes-as-such from which emerge images and motifs such as the mother, the child, the trickster, and the flood among others. History, culture and personal context shape these manifest representations thereby giving them their specific content. These images and motifs are more precisely called archetypal images. However it is common for the term archetype to be used interchangeably to refer to both archetypes-as-such and archetypal images.

"text": "Definition of Archetypes Carl Jung defined archetypes as the first original model upon which all other similar persons, objects or concepts are derived, copied, patterned or emulated. The word is derived from two Greek words, “arche” which means the first principle and “tupos” that translates as impression. These stereotypes are found throughout our literature and mythology. Shakespeare used them in his plays, his character Falstaff exhibits all the main features of the comic/fool stereotype and Romeo and Juliet are excellent examples of the lover. In this website my aim is to explore the most popular Goddesses from around the world. By looking at the myths, symbolism and rituals that surround them I am seeking to discover their individual stereotypes. This section contains a listing of the main archetypes, listed alphabetically from A-M and an exploration of their shadow aspects. There is also an indication of what each of the archetypes may represent in your life today. Lastly you will find links to the individual Goddesses that best embody this stereotype List of Archetypes A-MThe Child of Nature This Goddess typically feels most at home in the outside bonding and communicating with the forces of nature.

Welcome to the Star Wars in Mythology series. These posts will explore ancient mythology and its use in Star Wars, highlighting the timeless storytelling that permeates the saga. In this edition, Star Wars.com discusses the Shadow motif. Carl Jung is essentially the great-grandfather of Star Wars, as Joseph Campbell included much of Jung’s psychological research in his work. Jung’s work highlights the concept of the collective unconscious, aspects of our psyche that exist for everyone. Jung theorizes that this collective unconscious is responsible for the common themes in our mythology, even across isolated, independent cultures. All were drawing from archetypes hidden in our subconscious, archetypes that are part of what makes us human. The Shadow is one prevalent Jungian archetype. But it is Star Wars that definitively makes use of it."

"text": "Archetype Archetype Definition In literature, an archetype is a typical character, an action, or a situation that seems to represent universal patterns of human nature. An archetype, also known as “universal symbol ,” may be a character, a theme, a symbol, or even a setting. Many literary critics are of the opinion that archetypes – which have a common and recurring representation in a particular human culture, or entire human race – shape the structure and function of a literary work. Carl Jung, Swiss psychologist, argued that the root of an archetype is in the “collective unconscious” of mankind. The phrase “collective unconscious” refers to experiences shared by a race or culture. Such experiences include such things as love, religion, death, birth, life, struggle, and survival. These experiences exist in the subconscious of every individual, and are re-created in literary works, or in other forms of art. Examples of Archetype in Literature Below is the analysis of common archetypes that exist in literature. Archetypes in Characters Example #1: The Hero He or she is a character who predominantly exhibits goodness, and struggles against evil in order to restore harmony and justice to society. Examples of hero include Beowulf, in the book Beowulf, Hercules, in the book Hercules, and d’Artagnan, from The Three Musketeers."

Other myths, however, seem merely to narrate the deities' daily activities -- their love affairs and pleasures, their jealousies and rages, their ambitions and schemes, and their quarrels and battles.

[ 2] Jung defined synchronicity as an \"\"acausal connecting (togetherness) principle,\"\" \"\"meaningful coincidence\"\", and \"\"acausal parallelism.\"\" He introduced the concept as early as the 1920s but gave a full statement of it only in 1951 in an Eranos lecture.

[ 6] Jung's belief was that, just as events may be connected by causality, they may also be connected by meaning. Events connected by meaning need not have an explanation in terms of causality, which does not generally contradict the Axiom of Causality.

Archetypes are universal; that is, they occur across all cultures, religions, and parts of history. Psychotherapist Carl Jung theorized that many of these ideas persist innately and come from our “collective unconscious”, culled from early human experiences that have followed our species since our beginnings. Jung’s hypothesis is similar to Plato’s Theory of Forms, which posits that Forms, or Ideas, are present in our souls, and we create things in life to copy the Forms that already exist in our immortal souls. Dr. Carol S. Pearson has written several books on discovering our own personal archetypes, and has created a guide for finding our own inner archetypes. Students might be interested in finding their inner archetypes on her website, and then comparing their descriptions to some well-known fictional characters. A short breakdown of Pearson’s research that can be used to help describe or categorize different literary characters and their archetypes can be found through the University Interscholastic League. Author Jill Williamson also has compiled a comprehensive list of character archetypes on her website, along with short descriptions of movie, TV, or literary characters that exemplify the archetype. In literature, archetypes often appear in the form of Symbols or motifs Situations or plot forms Themes Animals Settings or places Characters An example of an archetypal situation or plot form can be found in The Heroic Journey. In The Odyssey, Odysseus faces many dangers on a quest to return to Ithaca, the theme of longing to return home that resonates universally."

"text": "Planetary and Astrological Magick One of the most essential and potent forms of magick, aside from theurgy and evocation, is planetary and astrological magick. Where elemental magick could be seen as working mostly with attributes of energy, planetary and astrological magick functions with a combination of energy, psychology and spirit formulations. Planetary and astrological magick tap into the basic archetypes of consciousness and culture, so they can be experienced as a form of power that effects the individual and the group mind simultaneously. In addition, these forms of magick also engage directly with attributes of spirit. Planetary and astrological intelligences, which are also considered to be a type of psychological archetype, are highly qualified and evolved spiritual entities in their own right, whether they are perceived as principals of the pagan godhead or as ruling angels. Still, in order to fully grasp the topic of planetary and astrological magick, I will need to define the nature of the planetary and astrological archetypes, which is key to the whole process. What is the nature of planetary and astrological archetypes? Are they related in some fashion to the actual celestial planets and zodiacal signs that they represent? The answer to this question pivots on how these attributes are defined, and how one defines the active principles of astrology. Do we take a literal approach to our understanding of astrology and the effect that the planets have on us?"

An archetype is a model situation, person, or idea that has been copied or emulated many times and is widely recognizable. The most evident archetype I could think of is the story of the underdog. This story consists of a righteous protagonist who triumphs when faced with unbeatable odds and insurmountable obstacles. This story has been around since David slayed Goliath and possibly earlier. This has been copied innumerable times in fiction and in stories based on real life events. There are countless movies and books based on real life sports teams who make an unexpected victory or have an surprisingly outstanding season. Stories where the winners always win and the losers always lose would become boring and distasteful to us, preaching invariance. Somewhere along the lines history has revealed to us that we find it amusing to watch the weak triumph over the strong, for any number of reasons."

"text": "The Archetypes of Literature Northrop Frye From The Kenyon Review, Winter 1951, Vol. XIII, No. 1Every organized body of knowledge can be learned progressively; and experience shows that there is also something progressive about the learning of literature. Our opening sentence has already got us into a semantic difficulty. Physics is an organized body of knowledge about nature, and a student of it says that he is learning physics, not that he is learning nature. Art, like nature, is the subject of a systematic study, and has to be distinguished from the study itself, which is criticism. It is therefore impossible to “learn literature”: one learns about it in a certain way, but what one learns, transitively, is the criticism of literature. Similarly, the difficulty often felt in “teaching literature” arises from the fact that it cannot be done: the criticism of literature is all that can be directly taught. So while no one expects literature itself to behave like a science, there is surely no reason why criticism, as a systematic and organized study, should not be, at least partly, a science. Not a “pure” or “exact” science, perhaps, but these phrases form part of a 19th Century cosmology which is no longer with us."

Abstract Background: Providing scalable clinical decision support (CDS) across institutions that use different electronic health record (EHR) systems has been a challenge for medical informatics researchers. The lack of commonly shared EHR models and terminology bindings has been recognised as a major barrier to sharing CDS content among different organisations. The open EHR Guideline Definition Language (GDL) expresses CDS content based on open EHR archetypes and can support any clinical terminologies or natural languages. Our aim was to explore in an experimental setting the practicability of GDL and its underlying archetype formalism. A further aim was to report on the artefacts produced by this new technological approach in this particular experiment. We modelled and automatically executed compliance checking rules from clinical practice guidelines for acute stroke care. Methods: We extracted rules from the European clinical practice guidelines as well as from treatment contraindications for acute stroke care and represented them using GDL. Then we executed the rules retrospectively on 49 mock patient cases to check the cases’ compliance with the guidelines, and manually validated the execution results. We used open EHR archetypes, GDL rules, the open EHR reference information model, reference terminologies and the Data Archetype Definition Language."

"text": "The Connection Between Archetypes And Brand By: Margaret Hartwell | January 7, 2016The following is an excerpt from the book Archetypes In Branding: A Toolkit for Creatives and Strategists by Margaret Pott Hartwell and Joshua C. Chen. Available now from My Design Shop. As both a face and a function, brand archetypes can reveal how a brand shows up in the world, how it is motivated and what triggers it. Very simply, archetypes can facilitate the understanding of a brand and why it attracts certain customers. Consider Margaret Mark and Carol Pearson’s assertion in The Hero and the Outlaw: Building Extraordinary Brands Through the Power of Archetypes: “Archetypes are strange attractors of consciousness. You attract customers when your brand is congruent with an archetype that is either dominant or emerging in their consciousness. ”An archetypal approach to branding will help humanize the process of being in business in general, and branding in particular, by enabling greater humanity within all stakeholder relationships. While archetypal stories have enormous impact in marketing and communications, there is also commensurate value in observing how archetypes function within business and leadership style and, subsequently, how they affect the authenticity and trust of a brand and its outreach efforts. An expanded definition of archetypes Going a bit deeper, we think it’s worth including some of the experts’ definitions of archetype:“An archetype is a universally familiar character or situation that transcends time, place, culture, gender and age. It represents an eternal truth."

Why does the author keep bringing up the color red, and why is it always raining? In this lesson, we will learn about the literary device of the motif, which is a recurring symbol that conveys a symbolic meaning. What is a Motif? A motif is a recurring symbol which takes on a figurative meaning. We see them in books, films, and poems. In fact, almost every text commonly uses the literary device of the motif. A motif can be almost anything: an idea, an object, a concept, a character archetype, the weather, a color, or even a statement. Motifs are used to establish a theme or a certain mood; they have a symbolic meaning."

"text": "Archetype Archetype Definition In literature, an archetype is a typical character, an action, or a situation that seems to represent universal patterns of human nature. An archetype, also known as “universal symbol ,” may be a character, a theme, a symbol, or even a setting. Many literary critics are of the opinion that archetypes – which have a common and recurring representation in a particular human culture, or entire human race – shape the structure and function of a literary work. Carl Jung, Swiss psychologist, argued that the root of an archetype is in the “collective unconscious” of mankind. The phrase “collective unconscious” refers to experiences shared by a race or culture. Such experiences include such things as love, religion, death, birth, life, struggle, and survival. These experiences exist in the subconscious of every individual, and are re-created in literary works, or in other forms of art. Examples of Archetype in Literature Below is the analysis of common archetypes that exist in literature. Archetypes in Characters Example #1: The Hero He or she is a character who predominantly exhibits goodness, and struggles against evil in order to restore harmony and justice to society. Examples of hero include Beowulf, in the book Beowulf, Hercules, in the book Hercules, and d’Artagnan, from The Three Musketeers."

"text": "\"Freebase (3.72 / 7 votes)Rate this definition: Romantic hero The Romantic hero is a literary archetype referring to a character that rejects established norms and conventions, has been rejected by society, and has the self as the center of his or her own existence. The Romantic hero is often the protagonist in the literary work and there is a primary focus on the character's thoughts rather than his or her actions. Literary critic Northrop Frye noted that the Romantic hero is often \"\"placed outside the structure of civilization and therefore represents the force of physical nature, amoral or ruthless, yet with a sense of power, and often leadership, that society has impoverished itself by rejecting\"\". Other characteristics of the romantic hero include introspection, the triumph of the individual over the \"\"restraints of theological and social conventions\"\", wanderlust, melancholy, misanthropy, alienation, and isolation. However, another common trait of the Romantic hero is regret for his actions, and self-criticism, often leading to philanthropy, which stops the character from ending romantically. An example of this trait is Edmond Dantès in The Count of Monte Cristo. The Romantic hero first began appearing in literature during the Romantic period, in works by such authors as Byron, Keats, and Goethe, and is seen in part as a response to the French Revolution. As Napoleon, the \"\"living model of a hero\"\", became a disappointment to many, the typical notion of the hero as upholding social order began to be challenged. Classic literary examples of the romantic hero include Gwynplaine from Hugo's The Man who Laughs, Mr. Darcy from Pride and Prejudice, Byron's Don Juan, Chateaubriand's René [4], Tolstoy's Andrei Bolkonsky from War and Peace, Cooper's \"\"Hawkeye\"\" from The Leatherstocking Tales, and Raymond Chandler's Phillip Marlowe from his seven novels about the Los Angeles detective.

"text": "\"Arts & Humanities Books & Authors What is a literary device? Please help! What is a literary device? Thanks!1 following 8 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Literary devices refers to specific aspects of literature, in the sense of its universal function as an art form which expresses ideas through language, which we can recognize, identify, interpret and/or analyze. Literary devices collectively comprise the art form’s components; the means by which authors create meaning through language, and by which readers gain understanding of and appreciation for their works. They also provide a conceptual framework for comparing individual literary works to others, both within and across genres. Both literary elements and literary techniques can rightly be called literary devices. Some examples of literary devices: Allegory: Where every aspect of a story is representative, usually symbolic, of something else, usually a larger abstract concept or important historical/geopolitical event. Alliteration: The repetition of consonant sounds within close proximity, usually in consecutive words within the same sentence or line. Dramatic irony: Where the audience or reader is aware of something important, of which the characters in the story are not aware."

The Norse trickster god Loki as depicted on an 18th-century Icelandic manuscript. Loki shares similarities with the Greek god Hermes, and a Jungian would say that they both partially express the archetype of the Trickster Like Freud, the psychologist Carl Jung also took myths seriously. Jung believed that myths and dreams were expressions of the collective unconscious, in that they express core ideas that are part of the human species as a whole. In other words, myths express wisdom that has been encoded in all humans, perhaps by means of evolution or through some spiritual process. For Jungians, this common origin in the collective unconscious explains why myths from societies at the opposite ends of the earth can be strikingly similar. A Jungian analysis of classical mythology would claim that the main gods and goddesses express archetypes that are common to human thinking everywhere. The main Olympian gods can be seen as expressions of archetypes of different stages of life within the archetypical family. Zeus is the patriarch, Apollo the young man on the cusp of manhood and independence. Hermes expresses the archetypes of the Trickster."

"text": "Chapter 01Interpretation and Definition of Classical Mythology THE PROBLEM OF DEFINING MYTHThe establishment of a single, comprehensive definition of myth has proved impossible to attain. No one definition can satisfactorily embrace all the various kinds of stories that can legitimately be classed as myths on the basis of one criterion or another. The attempt to define myth in itself, however intractable a proposition, serves to highlight the very qualities of the stories that make them so different from one another. THE MEANING OF THE WORD MYTH“Myth” is derived from the Greek word mythos, which can mean tale, or story, and that is essentially what a myth is: a story. For many, such a general definition proves to be of no real service, and some would add the qualification that a myth must be a “traditional” tale or story, one that has proved of so lasting a value that it is continually retold, through whatever medium the artist/storyteller chooses to employ. For further clarification, distinctions are often made between “myth,” i.e., “true myth” or “myth proper,” and “saga” or “legend,” and “folktale. ”MYTH, SAGA OR LEGEND, AND FOLKTALEMyth: not a comprehensive term for all stories but only for those primarily concerned with the gods and their relations with mortals. Saga or legend: a story containing a kernel of historical truth, despite later fictional accretions. Folktale: a story, usually of oral origin, that contains elements of the fantastic, often in the pattern of the adventure of a hero or a heroine. Its main function is entertainment, but it can also educate with all sorts of insights."

"text": "The traditional definition of myth is simply that they are historical stories used to explain the view of a society on any number of topics. Unlike the myth and structures of the ancient Greeks, nothing lasts any more. Myth is intrinsically connected to language, which is more fluid than a developing countryside or societal values. Thus, it makes sense to me that this definition of myth is perhaps in need of an update. Adding mythical elements to a story, especially where said elements seem out of place, is a literary tactic that seemingly elevates the scope of the tale in the eyes of individuals in search of some escapism or possibly explanation. Instead of the above, myths may be more accurately described for our time as fantastic stories from which we interpret, explain or extrapolate to an aspect of one’s life. In the early twentieth century, Joseph Campbell wrote a book that has served to further the literary use of myth in new media called A Hero With A Thousand Faces . In the introduction he writes “It has always been the prime function of mythology and rite to supply the symbols that carry the human spirit forward, in counteraction to those other constant human fantasies that tend to tie it back” (Campbell, 1968, p. 11). He goes on to explain the commonality in many of the ancient mythologies and provided a blueprint for the storytellers of his day and the future. It was perhaps because of the widespread use of this text on college campuses that a new era of myth was about to be unleashed."

Then identify an archetypal story and apply it to a literary work with which you are familiar. Posted by Mrs. Lacey at 3:07 PM16 comments: Grey_spear said... An archetype is a model situation, person, or idea that has been copied or emulated many times and is widely recognizable. The most evident archetype I could think of is the story of the underdog. This story consists of a righteous protagonist who triumphs when faced with unbeatable odds and insurmountable obstacles. This story has been around since David slayed Goliath and possibly earlier. This has been copied innumerable times in fiction and in stories based on real life events. There are countless movies and books based on real life sports teams who make an unexpected victory or have an surprisingly outstanding season. Stories where the winners always win and the losers always lose would become boring and distasteful to us, preaching invariance. Somewhere along the lines history has revealed to us that we find it amusing to watch the weak triumph over the strong, for any number of reasons."

"text": "\"GENRE. Genre is the division and grouping of texts on the basis of formal, thematic, or stylistic criteria. Texts may be produced, it can be argued, in compliance with or against the strictures of an established and identifiable genre, though it is equally feasible to impose a genre identity upon a work in retrospect, thus attributing to it further possibilities of meaning or, conversely, limiting its potential signification. Paradoxically, genre is conceptually located both within and outside of an individual text; it is a tool that may be employed with equal facility by author, reader, and critic. It is, equally paradoxically, both an instrument of restriction and a mode of liberation. As a system of division, genre lacks universally accepted boundaries. It is, perhaps, most obviously vested in the formal distinctions between narrative (or prose), drama, and poetry (or verse), though there are some critics who would distinguish these three broad, recurrent identities as \"\"modes,\"\" reserving the distinction of genre for what are essentially a work's technically distinguishable or thematically organized components — the sonnet within lyric or poetry, the novel and the gothic within prose fiction, tragedy within drama, and so on. Confusingly, other critics have been known to use the term mode to indicate a recognized textual tendency within one of the three broad genres. These already unstable boundaries may be further confused through an adaptation of the terminology of the German critic Karl Vi ë tor (1892 – 1951), under which genre distinctions, such as the romance and the pastoral, that occur across cultures may be labeled (somewhat misleadingly) as \"\"universals. \"\" On the one hand — and to adopt, for the purposes of argument, what is admittedly an extreme position — the regulated and regularized conventions of genre represent a restriction on what may be produced and what ought to be consumed."

It is a practice in African-American culture involving a verbal strategy of indirection that exploits the gap between the denotative and figurative meanings of words. A simple example would be insulting someone to show affection. [ 1] Other names for signifyin' include: \"\"Dropping lugs, joaning, sounding, capping, snapping, dissing, busting, bagging, janking, ranking, toasting, woofing, putting on, or cracking.\"\" [ 2]Signifyin' directs attention to the connotative, context-bound significance of words, which is accessible only to those who share the cultural values of a given speech community. The expression comes from stories about the Signifying Monkey, a trickster figure said to have originated during slavery in the United States. The American literary critic Henry Louis Gates Jr. wrote in The Signifying Monkey (1988) that signifyin' is \"\"a trope, in which are subsumed several other rhetorical tropes, including metaphor, metonymy, synecdoche, and irony (the master tropes), and also hyperbole, litotes, and metalepsis."

"text": "Archetype Definition:a common character, image, symbol, or situation that occurs in literature and in life, and considered to be universal across most cultures Archetype examples are found in the world around us every day: in our speech, our beliefs, media, sports, video games, psychology, art, and even our dreams. Archetypes are universal; that is, they occur across all cultures, religions, and parts of history. Psychotherapist Carl Jung theorized that many of these ideas persist innately and come from our “collective unconscious”, culled from early human experiences that have followed our species since our beginnings. Jung’s hypothesis is similar to Plato’s Theory of Forms, which posits that Forms, or Ideas, are present in our souls, and we create things in life to copy the Forms that already exist in our immortal souls. Dr. Carol S. Pearson has written several books on discovering our own personal archetypes, and has created a guide for finding our own inner archetypes. Students might be interested in finding their inner archetypes on her website, and then comparing their descriptions to some well-known fictional characters. A short breakdown of Pearson’s research that can be used to help describe or categorize different literary characters and their archetypes can be found through the University Interscholastic League. Author Jill Williamson also has compiled a comprehensive list of character archetypes on her website, along with short descriptions of movie, TV, or literary characters that exemplify the archetype. In literature, archetypes often appear in the form of Symbols or motifs Situations or plot forms Themes Animals Settings or places Characters An example of an archetypal situation or plot form can be found in The Heroic Journey. In The Odyssey, Odysseus faces many dangers on a quest to return to Ithaca, the theme of longing to return home that resonates universally."

The art world may define \"\"space\"\" differently than the scientific world (where does space begin? ), but the architecture profession has always been a combination of art and science. Architects design houses, office buildings, skyscrapers, landscapes, ships, and even entire cities. The services offered by a licensed architect depend on the type of project being developed. Complicated commercial projects are accomplished with a team of architects. Sole proprietor architects—especially architects just starting out on their own—will specialize and experiment with smaller, residential projects.

Egyptologists – at time of writing – hold that the Great Pyramid was built at around 2560BC. The Great Pyramid has been one of the greatest sources of fascination by the world at large. The word Pyramid I believe means Pillar of Light, it certainly does in the case of the Great Pyramid as it would have been an extremely luminous object with its dazzling white limestone casing stones at the time of its construction. The reason I am fascinated with the Great Pyramid is in the various constants and numbers that are embedded in its design and location. In this article I will elaborate on the numbers that pertain to Light. The Greek word for Pyramid means Fire, or Light (from Pyra) and Measure (from Mid), this is my personal belief. The Great Pyramid is thus a measure of light in many ways. I am for the most part passing on particular facts and figures from the research of Scott Onstott.

Pei: Building China Modern Building China Modern I. M. Pei has been called the most important living modern architect, defining the landscapes of some of the world’s greatest cities. A monumental figure in his field and a laureate of the prestigious Pritzker Architecture Prize, Pei is the senior statesman of modernism and last surviving link to such great early architects as Corbusier, Gropius, and Mies van der Rohe. Entering into the twilight of his career and well into his eighties, Pei returns to his ancestral home of Suzhou, China to work on his most personal project to date. He is commissioned to build a modern museum in the city’s oldest neighborhood which is populated by classical structures from the Ming and Qing dynasties. For the architect who placed the pyramid at the Louvre, the test to integrate the new with the old is familiar but still difficult. The enormous task is to help advance China architecturally without compromising its heritage. In the end, what began as his greatest challenge and a labor of sentiment, says Pei, ultimately becomes “my biography. ”American Masters ’s I. M. Pei: Building China Modern follows Pei on this historic journey to define China’s architectural vision as it comes into its own on the world stage. “I. M. Pei is an architectural poet – a living legend,” says Susan Lacy, series creator and executive producer of American Masters, a seven-time winner of the Emmy Award for Outstanding Primetime Non-Fiction Series. “"

We understand the quality of this translation is not excellent and we are working to replace these with high quality human translations. Introduction Steiner’s house was designed for the painter Lilly Steiner and her husband Hugo. It is located in a suburb of Vienna, where planning adjustments were strong enough to have a direct impact on the final design. Loos was the architect who carried forward, within the limits imposed by the configuration, and external forces, such as rigid building codes at the time. They allowed only one facing the street and a “sleep” (a window built into sloping roof)This house is on a manifesto of the poetics of the architect.

"text": "\"Q. How are architects compensated? Do they negotiate their fees? A. Methods of compensation vary depending on the architect. The two most common options are a fixed fee or a percentage of the cost of construction. Occasionally, architects will charge hourly. Usually that's just for smaller projects or in the interim until the scope is accurately defined, or it can be for work outside the scope of the project. Pricing can vary drastically among firms. Less experienced firms with a smaller portfolio of work will more than likely have lower fees (possibly as much as 25 to 50 percent lower) than an AD100 architect (top firms selected by Architectural Digest ). Fixed fees Architects Anthony Paul Arnold and Bryon Thomas Russell of Manhattan-based Syndicate Architecture say fixed fees are their preference. \"\" We decide to use a fixed fee when the scope of services can be precisely defined, our client understands what is and is not included, and our firm is confident that the services can be managed within a given budget,” says Arnold."

Effective programming will include all pertinent stakeholders to identify that all \"\"Whole Building\"\" functions and needs have been identified. Conducting programming and design charrettes with these stakeholders is an effective means of enhancing integrated functionality and mutual agreement on a design approach. See WBDG Architectural Programming for a more detailed explanation of how architectural programming helps the project team achieve a well-functioning high-performance building. A truly functional building will require a thorough analysis of the parts of the design problem and the application of creative synthesis in a solution that integrates the parts in a coherent and optimal operating manner. ' Whole Building' design is characterized by a design solution that functions well from an occupant activity and building systems point of view.

There are pros and cons to the varying forms of project delivery such as Design-Bid-Build, Design-Build, Construction Manager, and the new trends toward Integrated Project Delivery. Suffice it to say that the private sector has embraced the use of Construction Manager delivery systems for many years. The advantages include faster schedules, joint development of design documents between the Architect and the Constructor, open and transparent cost of the work including fees, and less cost overruns (if done properly). Because of this our local government agencies are now utilizing Construction Manager methods to deliver more of their projects on behalf of their using agencies. As with any form of project delivery the Construction Manager process must be approached differently by the Owner, Architect and Contractor. Failure to understand and adapt to the new roles each party plays will diminish any advantages offered in this delivery method. Adapting to these new roles is even more important for government agencies that have operated under the Design-Bid-Build methods for so many years.

Complex webs of existing applications and interfaces create highly complex landscapes where change becomes more and more difficult and the impacts of change become harder to predict and understand. The concept of SOA provides an architectural style that is specifically intended to simplify the business and the interoperation of different parts of that business. By structuring capability as meaningful, granular services as opposed to opaque, silo'ed business units, it becomes possible to quickly identify functional capabilities of an organization, avoid duplicating similar capabilities across the organization and quickly assemble new capabilities. By standardizing the behavior and interoperation of services, it is possible to limit the impacts of change and also to understand in advance the likely chain of impacts. From a software development perspective, SOA focuses on structuring applications in a way that facilitates system flexibility and agility - a necessity in today's complex and fast-moving business environment. SOA aims to break down traditional application silos into portfolios of more granular services that operate in open and interoperable ways, while extracting commodity capability into a virtualized infrastructure platform of shared re-usable utility services.22.3 SOA Definition Note: This section is provided for reader convenience. Part I, 3. Definitions should be referred to for the formal definitions."

No Thanks Download FREE Report The CGL and the Professional Liability Exclusion The Insurance Services Office, Inc. (ISO), commercial general liability (CGL) policy does not automatically exclude coverage for any and all professional services—the CGL must be endorsed to eliminate coverage for professional services. Craig F. Stanovich Liability Insurance April 2014This does not suggest that all professional services are covered by the unendorsed CGL policy. Coverage is not triggered unless the claim against an insured is for damages because of bodily injury or property damage (which must be caused by an occurrence) or the claim is for damages because of personal and advertising injury. For example, assume that, due to an architect's arithmetic error, the control tower of an airport was built too close to the terminal—resulting in inadequate site lines for the ground control staff. The cost to rectify this error and move the control tower was not damages because of property damage (the claim was not for physical injury to tangible property), and thus, the architect's CGL did not provide coverage for this claim—regardless of whether or not the CGL excluded professional services. Contractor's Professional Liability Exclusions While certainly there are numerous professional services exclusions that can be added to the CGL by endorsement, ranging from blood banks to pharmacists to law enforcement activities, the exclusionary endorsement that has been the subject of the most substantial litigation has been the exclusion of professional services on the CGL policy of a contractor. Contractors Engaged in Construction Operations—Exclusion of Professional Services It is customary to find an exclusionary endorsement attached to a contractor's CGL policy with one of the following titles and form numbers:\"\"Exclusion—Engineers, Architects or Surveyors Professional Liability\"\" (CG 22 43)\"\"Exclusion—Contractors—Professional Liability\"\" (CG 22 79)\"\"Limited Exclusion—Contractors—Professional Liability\"\" (CG 22 80)All three exclusionary endorsements eliminate coverage for bodily injury, property damage, and personal and advertising injury \"\"arising out of the rendering of or failure to render any professional services.…\"\" While each endorsement is materially different in the scope of the coverage eliminated, it is fair to say these endorsements are generally intended to remove coverage from the contractor's CGL policy for engineering, architectural, or surveying services.

It’s the notion that when owners sit at the same table with architects and builders, engineers and estimators, great ideas — the best ideas — are born. And the way is paved for creative solutions to take hold, resulting in costs minimized, schedules streamlined and efficiencies realized. What is Design-Build? Design-Build is a construction delivery method that provides owners with a single point of contact for both the design and construction phases of a project. One entity holds single-source responsibility and contractual risk for every aspect of a build — from estimation, assessments and pre-construction to architecture, schematics, engineering, subcontracting, construction and post-construction. This entity, the Design-Builder, manages all contracts with companies, such as subcontractors, equipment vendors and materials providers.

The only thing harder than choosing the right architect is understanding how architects charge. Why is it so hard to know what you can expect to pay before you begin? What’s the difference between an hourly rate, a fixed fee and a percentage of the construction cost? And, more important, which one is best for your project and your bottom line? While there’s no one-size-fits-all answer to these questions, with some basic understanding of architectural fees, you should be able to devise an apples-to-apples comparison when one architect give you a proposal based on an hourly fee and another proposes a percentage based on the cost of construction.chadbourne + doss architects Percentage of construction cost. Architectural fees usually run between 8 and 15 percent of the cost of construction. Thus, on a project that costs $100,000 to build, the architectural fees would fall in the range of $8,000 to $15,000. Why the big range? Some of it has to do with how well established the firm is, how large it is, how high its overhead is and, frankly, how much cachet it has."

By Guest Authors February 3, 2015It’s common knowledge that earning an AWS certification is a great way to qualify your experience in the eyes of your peers and employer and to increase your organization’s proficiency with AWS-based applications. However, there is another benefit that has not been quantified until now. Results from the 2015 IT Skills and Salary Survey conducted by Global Knowledge and Windows IT Pro revealed that the average pay of four AWS certifications exceeded $100,000. While there is no guarantee that a certification equals a six-figure salary, it certainly couldn’t hurt. Average Pay by AWS Certification Certification Average Salary AWS Certified Developer — Associate Level $137,825AWS Certified Solutions Architect — Professional Level $117,434AWS Certified Solutions Architect — Associate Level $114,935AWS Certified Sys Ops Administrator — Associate Level $108,046Read the 2017 article about what it takes to earn an AWS certification.

"text": "March 11, 2018 By Steven Halls Architectural distortion found on mammogram An architectural distortion is a somewhat vague phrase used by radiologists, when the mammogram shows a region where the breasts normal appearance, looks like an abnormal arrangement of tissue strands, often a radial or perhaps a somewhat random pattern, but without any associated mass as the apparent cause of this distortion. We have a more up-to-date page that has some information on architectural distortion HERE. The mammogram report will usually ask for some additional work-up, so they call-back the patient to get some extra views or an ultrasound or both. This mammogram has an architectural distortion. And are you worried it’s a cancer. Yes, for this particular example, it’s quite suspicious. It’s the upper white area that looks pinched together. Most of the time, an architectural distortion causes some suspicion that there might be cancer. But the radiologist hasn’t confirmed whether a true mass is present yet. Having a ‘mass’ would be even more suspicious."

In this article, we review a variety of breast diseases that may present as architectural distortion on mammography; review the utility of correlative imaging, such as ultrasound and magnetic resonance; and review appropriate management for these diagnoses. Primary causes include breast cancer, ductal carcinoma in situ, radial scar, complex sclerosing lesion, and fat necrosis. Secondary etiologies include previous breast surgery, trauma, and infection. Familiarity with imaging findings presenting as distortion on multimodality imaging will optimize detection and management of this subtle-yet-significant finding.

The success of treatment of breast cancer patients depends on early detection. Mammographic screening has been shown to be effective in reducing mortality rates by 30%-70%. 1 Although most cancers present as masses or calcifications on mammography, the third most-common mammographic appearance of nonpalpable breast cancer is architectural distortion (AD). 2 The prevalence of AD is estimated to be 6% of detected abnormalities on screening mammography."

In this lesson, we'll look at the style of art known as Mannerism. The work of the Mannerists was dismissed for centuries as decadent, or simply weird. Only in the 20th century did it come to be widely admired. Mannerism: Renaissance Masterpiece If your predecessors achieved perfection, what's left for you to do? That's the question that seemed to haunt the generation of artists who came of age in Renaissance Italy after 1520 living in the shadows cast by Raphael, Michelangelo, and Leonardo da Vinci. Their response to these unique dynamics was to push art in some very strange directions. The painters we now call the Mannerists exaggerated and distorted the defining characteristics of High Renaissance art, creating unsettling, sometimes bizarre pictures. This form of art was ignored, even scorned, until the 20th century. Like some surrealist artists of our own time (including the creators of prog rock album covers), the Mannerists used their mastery of perspective, modeling, line, and color to create artificial worlds that were nevertheless painstakingly 'realistic' in their details."

The Early Renaissance was the formative period of Renaissance art; in other words, it was artists of the Early Renaissance who pioneered and developed physical realism and classical composition. These efforts culminated in the High Renaissance, during which the apex of classical balance, harmony, and restraint was attained. During the Late Renaissance, this severe classicism was relaxed, allowing for a measure of complexity and dynamism (thus presaging the rise of Baroque art). A distinct sub-movement of Late Renaissance art was mannerism: the deliberate pursuit of novelty and complexity. In sculpture, mannerism resulted in such qualities as distorted anatomy (e.g. elongated limbs) and complex postures. Some Late Renaissance artists worked in a full-blown mannerist style, while others were merely influenced by the movement (to varying degrees)."

There are several features that can be considered as part of architectural distortion 3:contour abnormalitytrabecular thickeningtrabecular disorganisation Aetiology Many entities can cause architectural distortion 1,4. In practice, the most common are surgery and potentially malignant breast lesions.

The two most characteristic features of perspective are that objects are smaller as their distance from the observer increases; and that they are subject to foreshortening, meaning that an object's dimensions along the line of sight are shorter than its dimensions across the line of sight.

Linear perspective always works by representing the light that passes from a scene through an imaginary rectangle (realized as the plane of the painting), to the viewer's eye, as if a viewer were looking through a window and painting what is seen directly onto the windowpane. If viewed from the same spot as the windowpane was painted, the painted image would be identical to what was seen through the unpainted window. Each painted object in the scene is thus a flat, scaled down version of the object on the other side of the window. [ 1] Because each portion of the painted object lies on the straight line from the viewer's eye to the equivalent portion of the real object it represents, the viewer sees no difference (sans depth perception) between the painted scene on the windowpane and the view of the real scene.

Among the things I’ve missed was the creation of Millennium Park, and with it, of the Bean, a 100-ton stainless steal colossus completed years behind schedule in 2006. Who could be so hard of heart that they would go to Chicago and not want to see the Bean? Not I. So I’m back, and I went to see the Bean. To think about the Bean, let’s think about the architecture of Chicago. Chicago may or may not be a city of big shoulders, but it is definitely a city of big-shouldered skyscrapers. Its skyscrapers hulk, throwing weighty boxes above the city streets. There is a heaviness to Chicago School architecture which is specific to the city. New York’s 1916 Zoning Resolution imposed the pyramid on the city’s architecture, creating the tapering, balletic skyscrapers of Manhattan. When you think about it, the original World Trade Center towers were really Chicago towers; the new World Trade Center, a soaring glass needle, is much more New Yorkian."

By Diana L. Mirakaj Historically, operational excellence has been associated mainly with optimizing business processes, generally related to production and manufacturing. Gauging its success was based predominantly on an ability to satisfy customer demand, improve quality, and bolster overall productivity and efficiency. Regardless of economic challenge, no enterprise would ever encourage inefficiency. Can you imagine what the competitive landscape would resemble if business leaders operated with no thought given to performance or winning market share? Forget agility—survival alone would border on impossible. While some aspects of operational excellence have not changed over time— such as a consistent nature of achieving the highest level of efficiency possible—the trifecta of “better, faster, cheaper” has broadened to encompass far more strategic paths. Operational excellence provides managers with a sustainable advantage by giving them the ability to continuously improve an organization’s decision, investment and asset performance; its service delivery; and its human resources capabilities. Operationally excellent enterprises possess the processes and structures that give them the visibility, control, tools and management practices necessary to drive greater operational effectiveness and efficiency. In other words, operational excellence requires convergence—the art and science of managing business and technology as one."

Definition: optical communication links where the signal light is transported in fibers German: faseroptische Verbindungen Categories: lightwave communications, fiber optics and waveguides How to cite the article; suggest additional literature A fiber-optic link (or fiber channel) is a part of an optical fiber communications system which provides a data connection between two points ( point-to-point connection ). It essentially consists of a data transmitter, a transmission fiber (in some cases with built-in fiber amplifiers ), and a receiver. Even for very long transmission distances, extremely high data rates of many Gbit/s or even several Tbit/s can be achieved. The used components, which are mostly based on fiber optics, are explained in the following, beginning with a simple single-channel system. More sophisticated approaches are discussed thereafter.

"text": "\"Mastering Wide-Angle The problem with wide-angle photography is that it's... wide. That is, if you point your camera at a random subject, you'll get a lot of things inside the frame. Some of them will very likely be dark, others will be light, some will be near, some will be far. This introduces all kinds of complications, and in fact turns many of the usual rules, techniques, and even desirable lens characteristics on their heads. Lens characteristic Telephoto Normal-range Wide-angle AF speed, accuracy Critical Highly important Unimportant Bokeh Important Important Unimportant Performance wide-open Critical Important Relatively unimportant Performance stopped-down Unimportant Important Critical Flare characteristics Unimportant Important Highly important Relative importance of some lens characteristics at different focal lengths. With telephoto, depth of field is narrow, the long focal lengths make hand-holding tricky, and you're often shooting subjects that don't stand still. This means that fast and precise focusing is critical, bad bokeh has a really unpleasant effect on most pictures, and you'll be shooting your lens wide-open most of the time, to minimize camera shake. On the other hand, the narrow field of view means that you can use deep hoods to very effectively cut out glare and reduce flare. In other words, when shopping for a telephoto lens, you might want to trade off some optical quality for focusing speed and accuracy -- or pony up the extra for the snappier of two otherwise equal lenses (e.g. Canon 70-200/2.8L vs Sigma EX 70-200/2.8). With wide-angle, the situation is largely reversed."

Both movements flourished across Western Europe (especially in the north) and the United States, and to a lesser extent in Eastern Europe. Following the extravagance of Baroque and Rococo, a general longing for the restraint of classicism emerged, fuelling the rise of the Neoclassical movement. Another factor was the excavation of several major classical sites (including Pompeii and Athens), which expanded knowledge of ancient art and provided an enormous burst of inspiration. 3,15 (The \"\"Pompeian styles\"\" of wall painting, for instance, were adopted for Neoclassical interior decoration. H913) The heart of Neoclassical painting was France, where the legacy of Poussin continued to resonate. 19Meanwhile, many artists of this period sought to break new ground in the expression of emotion, both subtle and stormy (see Western Aesthetics ). This was the Romantic movement, which embraced a number of distinctive themes, including historical nostalgia, supernatural elements, social injustices, and nature."

The process of creating standards and guidelines of representation allows innovation to enter the realm of the establishment. What can be measured can be capitalized, historicized, and sold. While architectural representation conforms to a system of standards and guidelines that allows for the production of buildings, architecture is also the practice of giving form to thought. In the process of creating edifices that house social, political, and spatial relations, architects make visible the functions of society in operational and aspirational terms. In this sense, architecture is constantly innovating new forms of measurement and representation. The pleasure and pressure to measure and be measured has become increasingly present."

"text": "CHAPTER 5Colon INTRODUCTIONThe colon can be divided into six segments both anatomically and endoscopically. Unlike in the stomach, the histology of the colon is relatively uniform. These segments can be divided into the cecum, where the ileocecal valve and appendiceal orifice serve as important landmarks; ascending colon; transverse colon; descending colon; sigmoid colon; and rectum. Appreciation of the endoscopic differences between regions is important, particularly when dealing with colonic neoplasms, where accurate localization is essential. In contrast with the upper gastrointestinal tract, in the colon, diagnosis and therapy of neoplasms assume a prominent role. Although adenomatous polyps are the most frequent neoplastic lesions, a variety of other polyps may masquerade endoscopically; subtle mucosal differences may aid in distinguishing these impostors. Inflammatory disorders such as Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis represent another important group of diseases. Other inflammatory disorders, including ischemia and infections (bacterial and viral), assume greater importance in the colon than in the upper gastrointestinal tract. Many of these inflammatory processes appear endoscopically similar; however, differentiation can usually be accomplished based on the characteristics of the patient, location of disease (pancolonic versus segmental), and characteristics of the disease in the involved segment (e.g., circumferential versus patchy; ulcer versus no ulcer). Figure 5.1 BARIUM ENEMAAn air-contrast barium enema demonstrates the normal anatomy of the colon."

Side view of Lorenzo Ghiberti 's cast gilt-bronze \"\"Gates of Paradise\"\" at the Florence Baptistery in Florence, Italy, combining high-relief main figures with backgrounds mostly in low relief. Relief is a sculptural technique where the sculpted elements remain attached to a solid background of the same material. The term relief is from the Latin verb relevo, to raise. To create a sculpture in relief is to give the impression that the sculpted material has been raised above the background plane. [ 1] What is actually performed when a relief is cut in from a flat surface of stone (relief sculpture) or wood ( relief carving) is a lowering of the field, leaving the unsculpted parts seemingly raised. The technique involves considerable chiselling away of the background, which is a time-consuming exercise. On the other hand, a relief saves forming the rear of a subject, and is less fragile and more securely fixed than a sculpture in the round, especially one of a standing figure where the ankles are a potential weak point, especially in stone. In other materials such as metal, clay, plaster stucco, ceramics or papier-mâché the form can be just added to or raised up from the background, and monumental bronze reliefs are made by casting. There are different degrees of relief depending on the degree of projection of the sculpted form from the field, for which the Italian and French terms are still sometimes used in English."

"text": "Electronic Records Management Guidelines Electronic Records Management Strategy Summary The arrival of the Information Age means that much of our history is now recorded in electronic format, including your agency’s activities. Because of that, you need to develop a strategy for managing electronic records. A government agency’s electronic records management strategy must conform to legal mandates, as well as reflect your preferred management practices and technological options. When you begin to develop your electronic records management strategy, you should aim for a policy that integrates: The legal framework as it applies to your agency All interested stakeholders (e.g., record creators, the public, information technology staff, records management staff)All relevant aspects of your electronic records Your preferred management procedures and technologies Long-term storage and access needs (both legal and operational)A sound, integrated strategy reflects the relationship between records management and your operations, and ensures that you manage records in a way that supports your daily work, supports long-term operational needs, and meets your legal requirements. Because different stakeholders throughout an enterprise have different needs and roles in electronic records management, the development of your electronic records management strategy requires joint planning, communication, and training. Legal Framework Your strategy must conform to the legal mandates in such areas as: Providing public accountability Distinguishing public from not-public records Creating records retention schedules and carrying out disposal actions Developing and sustaining a trustworthy process for electronic records management Refer to the Legal Framework chapter for more information on legal mandates and legal frameworks in general. Key Concepts As you develop an electronic records management strategy, you will need to be familiar with the following key concepts: The State of Minnesota's definition of a record Records Series Components of an Electronic Record Records Continuum Records Management Goals Long-term Retention Approaches General Records Retention Schedules Storage Options Definition of a Record The Records Management Act defines government records as: Cards, correspondence, disks, maps, memoranda, microfilms, papers, photographs, recordings, reports, tapes, writings, optical disks, other data, information, or documentary material, regardless of physical form or characteristics, storage media or conditions of use, made or received by an officer or agency of the state and an officer or agency of a county, city, town, school district, municipal subdivision or corporation or other public authority or political entity within the state pursuant to state law or in connection with the transaction of public business by an officer or agency. In short, an official record includes all information, regardless of format, created or used in the course of a government business function or transaction. The definition excludes: Library and museum material made or acquired and kept solely for reference or exhibit purposes Extra copies of documents maintained only for the convenience of reference Stock of publications and processed documents Bonds, coupons, or other obligation or evidence of indebtedness, the destruction or other disposition of which is governed by other laws An electronic record is a record created, generated, sent, communicated, received, or stored by electronic means.

It is the most recent amendment to be adopted, but one of the first proposed. It was submitted by Congress to the states for ratification on September 25, 1789, along with eleven other proposed amendments. While ten of these twelve proposals were ratified in 1791 to become the Bill of Rights, what would become the Twenty-seventh Amendment and the proposed Congressional Apportionment Amendment did not get ratified by enough states for them to also come into force with the first ten amendments. The proposed congressional pay amendment was largely forgotten until 1982 when Gregory Watson researched it as a student at the University of Texas at Austin and began a new campaign for its ratification. [ 1] Watson's role has been widely popularized, since his original paper proposing the idea received a poor grade (although a current Professor at Texas, Zachary Elkins, engineered a grade change in 2017 in light of Watson's accomplishments). [ 2] The amendment eventually became part of the United States Constitution on May 5, 1992, [3] completing a record-setting ratification period of 202 years, 7 months, and 10 days.

"text": "A museum curator manages the collections of a museum. All types of museums require at least one curator. Curators usually has a background or interest in history, archaeology and anthropology. The difference between a curator and an archivist is that archivists are often involved with valuable documents, while curators work with cultural specimens. A museum curator could deal with any type of historical collection such as coins or art. It is extremely important for him or her to be able to evaluate collection items as genuine and to negotiate prices for acquiring collection items. Curators plan, display, and catalog collection items. Planning and overseeing tours, programs and workshops may also be part of a his or her duties. He or she may be one of several curators at a museum. Large museums may employ several curators that each specialize in a certain field."

National Archives employees preserve the records of the U. S. Government and make them available to the public. They do this in different ways, but mostly as archivists, archives technicians, conservators, and records managers. Archivists are specially trained in preserving the original material and helping people obtain it. Archivists work with paper documents, photographs, maps, films, and computer records. Many begin their careers as historians and then attend classes to learn from experienced archivists. Archivists possess broad, deep knowledge about records and are involved in many, if not all, phases of the records life cycle."

"text": "Thoughts on Traditional Processing and MPLP…Posted on December 10, 2012 by rrrazon 3 Comments Written by Rona Razon, ICFA Archives Specialist For a long time, I have been meaning to write a post about my thoughts on the proper way to perform archival processing (i.e. research, assessment, arrangement, description, and rehousing) and the value of “More Product, Less Process” (MPLP). As most archivists know, MPLP is a different approach to processing developed by Mark Greene and Dennis Meissner of the Minnesota Historical Society that advocates for greater efficiency through minimal-level processing. I know this topic is so 2005! But, I think it is something that a lot of archivists and processors are still dealing with and often unsure of. In my case, over the years, I have realized (after a lot of re-thinking) that archival processing should be a balance between traditional standards and the MPLP approach. It can’t be only one or the other. It was back in 2010 when I started processing the Byzantine Institute and Dumbarton Oaks fieldwork collection, which contains more than 100 boxes spanning the years between 1920s and 2000s, that I began to consider the advantages and disadvantages of traditional processing versus MPLP. Byzantine Institute staff and Thomas Whittemore restoring the mosaics at Hagia Sophia, Istanbul, Turkey, 1936. One of the many treasures from the collection, The Byzantine Institute and Dumbarton Oaks Fieldwork Records and Papers, 1920s – 2000s. Aided by our former archival assistant, Laurian Douthett, we agreed that each method offered certain benefits, so we used a blend of the two approaches to formulate the following rules: Conduct preliminary collection-level research (folder- and item-level research, only if necessary; i.e., conduct research on items that contain informational and evidential value)Assess and describe the contents of each folder (unique items, only if necessary; i.e., assess and describe items that contain informational and evidential value)Assess the items’ physical condition Identify common terms, such as subjects, individual names, geographic areas, and institutions, at the collection level Evaluate the collection’s existing order or arrangement at the box and folder level Draft an arrangement outline if there is no existing order, or it is not appropriate for the collection Finally, organize and rehouse the collection As you can see, this blended approach requires that a significant number of steps be taken in processing a collection."

"text": "Archive skills and tools for historians Sean Cunningham Not all historians choose to, or need to, use archival collections to conduct innovative and exciting research. Some historians continue to command the respect of their peers (and their publishers) at a considerable physical or intellectual distance from the unique manuscripts and papers usually associated with archival collections. Nevertheless, many professional historians associate archival research with their rite of passage into the profession. At some point in their careers most scholars have devoted several long weeks to the systematic examination of the carefully sorted primary sources in their chosen field of study. Few historians would disagree that the refereed article, monograph or scholarly study requires a range of evidence, some of which will be extracted from documents held in archives, and used as the basis of discussion and argument. Since the nature and format of records relative to particular subject areas and periods of history has changed little, so one might expect that the evolution of the associated archival skills of historians has been a slow process. This has probably been the case for decades, if not over centuries of historical and antiquarian study. This particular aspect of the discipline of historical study, however, is now subject to a process of great change. Historians’ interaction with archives has been dominated by the need to identify the range of material within collections, to access relevant documents, and to interpret their contents productively. By no means does all investigation of the past require the consultation of the written word."

"text": "Home » Technology What Is the Definition of a Suspense File System? By Brian Heuberger There are many different ways to organize files and folders. When several different documents and matters must be addressed each day, sometimes it can be very difficult to keep track of each particular task that must be completed. To organize important files and documents, many people use filing systems that enable them to easily sift through folders to find the documents they need. A suspense file system is an effective method of filing documents that can be helpful in your professional and personal life. Definition A suspense file system, also known as a tickler system, is a method of organizing files and labeling folders according to chronology. Each folder is marked with a future date, and action must be taken on the all papers inside the folder on that respective marked date. This suspense filing system emphasizes chronology, the importance of organizing files by the date in which they must be addressed and preparing for the relatively distant future. Advantages Rather than having files and folders scattered in a chaotic fashion, the suspense filing system encourages people to place dates on the folders and place papers that relate to issues that must be completed on those dates in the appropriate folders. With papers organized according to chronology, when people wake up and look at the date, they can easily reach into the right folder and find the files they need to address for that date."

Cosa Cosa was a Latin colonia founded under Roman influence in southwestern Tuscany in 273 BC, perhaps on land confiscated from the Etruscans. The Etruscan site may have been where modern Orbetello stands; a fortification wall in polygonal masonry at Orbetello's lagoon may be in phase with the walls of Cosa. The position of Cosa is distinct, rising some 113 metres above sea level and is sited 140 km northwest of Rome on the Tyrrhenian Sea coast, on a hill near the small town of Ansedonia. The town experienced a hard life and was never truly a prosperous Roman city, although it has assumed a position of prominence in Roman archaeology owing to the circumstances of its excavation. After the foundation, wars of the 3rd century BC affected the town. New colonists arrived in 197 BC. Cosa seems to have prospered until it was sacked in the 60s BC, perhaps by pirates. This led to a re-foundation under Augustus and then life continued until the 3rd century. One of the last textual references to Cosa comes from the work of Rutilius Claudius Namatianus in his De reditu suo."

"text": "\"Why Is the Government Withholding Documents About JFK's Assassination? JFK assassination documents offer surprising lessons about government secrecy -- and Obama's presidency. By Russ Baker / Who What Why.com June 1, 2012, 9:00 AM GMTPrint Comments Next year will be a half-century since the death of JFK. And the Obama Administration thinks we need to keep secret the records on the matter … a little longer yet. Believe it or not, more than 50,000 pages of JFK assassination–related documents are being withheld in full. And an untold number of documents have been partially withheld or released with everything interesting blacked out. But why? Since the government and the big media keep telling us there was no conspiracy and that it was all Lee Harvey Oswald acting on his own, why continue to keep the wraps on? We don’t have an answer, but in understanding this and any number of other mysteries, we can begin looking for patterns in the way the administration handles information policy. We Want to Hear from You (But That’s It — We Just Want to Hear from You)Earlier this year, the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) asked, on its online Open Government Forum, for suggestions from the public about what it could do to create greater transparency."

"text": "Frequently Asked Questions on Identifying and handling Classified Records in Private Papers Introduction It is not uncommon for non-governmental repositories to discover classified records among their manuscript collections. The accessioned papers of former federal employees as well as those of prominent scientists and research entities who interacted with the U. S. government occasionally contain information marked CONFIDENTIAL, SECRET, or TOP SECRET. Archivists in universities and colleges, research institutions, state archives, and historical societies frequently uncover these records and are unsure—even afraid—of how to handle them. Fortunately, there are established means, codified in the Code of Federal Regulations, for non-governmental repositories to properly safeguard and to obtain the declassification of these records, as appropriate. This information paper will help you recognize classified material in your collection and deal with it in the right way. Question #1 - What is Classified National Security Information? Classified national security information is information created or received by an agency of the federal government or a government contractor that would damage national security if improperly released. Since 1940, the President has managed the system of classifying information by executive order (E. O. ); the most recent order concerning classified national security information is E. O. 13526, signed by President Obama on December 29, 2009. Information can only be classified if an official determination is made that its unauthorized release would damage the national security. Levels of classification correspond to levels of supposed damage."

In 2015, we are now able to start addressing individual medications which may have their own unique cause of side effects and withdrawal. We are starting with Zoloft. During 2014, a clinical study was published showing Zoloft caused the activation of a substance called MAP4K4. The activation of the MAP4K4 would then cause the over activation of the JNK gene and these two events directly leads to liver cell death.

Like all medicines, medical marijuana may cause certain effects. However, marijuana side effects are much milder and more manageable than those that come with traditional medicines. And unlike thousands of other medicines, there has never been a death attributed to marijuana overdose. Marijuana affects everyone differently, but some people may experience one or more of the following side effects: Drowsiness Dry Mouth or Thirst Giddiness Hunger Insomnia Red Eyes Respiratory Issues Short-Term Memory Loss Uneasiness or Anxiety Side Effects of Marijuana: Drowsiness Some patients who medicate with marijuana will experience drowsiness. Also called hypnesthesia, drowsiness is a state of impaired awareness associated with a desire or inclination to sleep. While this may interfere with some people’s ability to remain alter during work hours, patients who suffer from insomnia will find this side effect to be very effective in alleviating their condition. How can I alleviate this side effect? As with all medications that may cause drowsiness, do not drive, operate heavy machinery or drink alcohol while using medical cannabis. You may prefer to use medical marijuana in the evening or before you go to bed to avoid this side effect."

"text": "Difference Between Side Effect and Adverse Effect October 21, 2015 by admin 3 min read Main Difference – Side Effect vs. Adverse Effect Side Effect and Adverse Effect are two terms that are often used in the field of medicine. Though these two terms look similar, there is a distinct difference between side effect and adverse effect. The main difference between side effect and adverse effect is, a side effect can be either harmful or beneficial while an adverse effect is typically harmful and undesirable. In addition, adverse effects are more severe and life-threatening than side effects. What is a Side Effect A side effect is an effect of a drug, chemical, or other medicine that is in addition to its intended effect. This effect can be harmful or beneficial, but a side effect is generally considered to be an adverse or harmful effect. For example, metformin which is used to treat type 2 diabetes can cause side effects such as muscle aches or pains, dizziness, confusion, increased hunger, etc. However, some drugs also cause therapeutic effects. For example, Carbamazepine, which is an approved treatment for manic depression, has side effects useful in treating conditions like schizophrenia and, neuromyotonia. A medicine can also have both harmful and beneficial side effects at the same time."

Listing of generic (chemical) and corresponding brand names of analgesics classified by types. Non-Narcotic Analgesics Acetaminophen is not classified as an NSAID because it only exerts weak anti-inflammatory effects. Generic name Brand names Acetaminophen (Paracetamol) Tylenol, Acephen, Actamin, Apacet, Genapap, Feverall, Halenol, Panadol, Panex, Paramol, Pediapap, Redutemp, Q-Pap, Tactinal, Tempra, Tylophen, Uniserts Metamizole (Dipyrone) (banned in US, Japan, Australia) Novalgin, Analgin, Berlosin, Dipirona, Metalgin, Metamizol-Puren, Novaminsulfon NSAIDs Non-Steroidal Anti Iinflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) reduce pain and inflammation by reducing the production of prostaglandins (pro-inflammatory chemicals) through inhibition of the enzyme cyclooxygenase (COX). Prostaglandins are released by the damaged tissue, that is at the source of the pain, therefore NSAIDs are classified as peripherally acting analgesics 1.

COX-1 enzyme is normally present in most body tissues, and plays an inportant role in the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract, kidneys and platelets. In contrast, COX-2 is produced primarily in response to inflammation, but to some extent in other tissues including kidneys and brain.

"text": "High Risk Medications Medications have an established profile of side effects, but ocular side effects are often unrecognized, overlooked or misdiagnosed. While the ophthalmologic literature usually highlights such discoveries, the general medical journals don't always pass the message along. Since ocular side effects can be severe, it's essential that patients inform their optometric physician of all medications they are taking. Some adverse reactions can be mistaken as symptoms of stroke or other diseases, causing unnecessary confusion.

On the summer solstice (on or near June 21), there are 24 hours of sunlight. For several weeks on either side of that date, the Sun might only set for an hour or two, and even then the sky never gets completely dark. On the winter solstice (December 21), there are no hours of daylight, since the Sun never rises at or above the Arctic circle on that date. For several weeks on either side of the winter solstice, the Sun will only be in the sky for an hour or two. Closer to the equinoxes (on or near March 21 and September 21), people living at the Arctic circle have 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of darkness, just like everybody else on the planet. That's because on those days, the Earth's axis is tipped neither toward or away from the Sun. So I hope that helps, and good luck to you!"

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

Alaska's four time zones have become two. More than 98 percent of the state's population is in one of these zones, now called Yukon time, which is one hour earlier than Pacific standard time and four hours earlier than Eastern standard time. Names of the time zones are uncertain because legislation has been introduced in Washington to rename the Yukon zone Alaska time. The Aleutian Island communities that formerly were in the Bering Sea time zone are now in the Alaska time zone, an hour earlier than Yukon time. Bering Sea time no longer exists anywhere in the state. Except for annual national daylight time changes, no such broad shift has occurred since Nov. 18, 1883, when the railroads adopted time zones to facilitate their scheduling and make their operations safer. Up to then every locality had its own time, which generally set noon as the time when the sun was directly overhead. End of Daylight Time Eased Shift Clocks in the former Alaska time zone, now in the Yukon time zone, were not changed at 2 A. M. Sunday, as daylight time ended this year, which may account for some of the ease of the shift. Anchorage, Fairbanks, the Kenai Peninsula and the Arctic oil fields all were in that time zone."

"text": "Project I: A Model for the Length of Daylight This project concerns using a mathematical formula called DAYLIGHT to estimate the number of hours of daylight on the x-th day of the year at a given latitude LAT. [ 1] Since the author of this report lives in Omaha, Omaha will be substituted for all questions involving Lincoln. In particular, the Omaha World-Herald states for October 1, 1995 that sunrise occurs at 6:20 am, and sunset occurs at 6:06 pm. Thus there are 11 hours and 46 minutes (or 11.77 hours) of daylight on October 1. To use the DAYLIGHT function to compute the number of hours of daylight, we first determine that October 1 is day x=274. Second, using a map we determine the latitude LAT of Omaha to be 41.5 degrees North latitude. With these inputs, DAYLIGHT gives the length of daylight for October 1 to be 11.52 hours, for a relative error, compared to the World-Herald data, of .25/11.77=2.12%. [ 2] Since the newspaper only gives times of sunrise and sunset up to the nearest minute, the length of daylight as derived from newspaper data can be expected to have an error of as much as 1 minute. Since the change in the length of daylight from one day to the next is on the order of a few minutes, to get a reasonably accurate daily rate of change of the length of daylight we must compare the lengths of two days some days apart. From [1] we know that October 1 had 11.77 hours of daylight."

The earliest noon of the year falls on or near November 3, with the Sun ahead of schedule by over 16 minutes. The Sun strikes noon at 11:44 a.m. local time. Over three months later, around February 11, the year's tardiest noonday Sun arrives more than 14 minutes late, climbing to its noontime high at 12:14 p.m. At the equator, where the daylight hours remain equal throughout the year, the year's latest sunrise (and sunset) take place on the day on which the latest solar noon happens to fall. As you go farther north of the equator, the daily change in daylight hours becomes more manifest.

We have seasons because Earth's axis – the imaginary line that goes through the Earth and around which the Earth spins — is tilted. It's tilted about 23.5 degrees relative to our plane of orbit (the ecliptic) around the Sun. As we orbit our Sun, our axis always points to the same fixed location in space. Our northern axis points almost directly toward Polaris, the North Star. This picture shows Earth from its side as it orbits our Sun. The axis is tilted and points to the North Star no matter where Earth is in its orbit. Because of this, the distribution of the Sun's rays changes. In June, in the northern hemisphere summer, the Sun's rays — and warmth — reach all the way to the north pole. In December, in the northern hemisphere winter, the north pole is tilted away from the incoming sunshine."

It's astronomical twilight, the time when the Sun is 12° to 18° below the horizon. In cities and bright suburbs, or at full Moon, astronomical twilight is a non-issue; the sky is as dark as it ever gets by the end of nautical twilight.

The plane of the ecliptic is the plane of the Earth’s orbit around the Sun. Most of the planets in the solar system also orbit on or near the plane of the ecliptic. ( You can see in the drawing below that the planets are more or less lined up, instead of circling the Sun at just any old angle. No, this is not drawn to scale. ) The Sun’s rays are pretty close to parallel to each other when they reach the Earth: So, if the Earth’s axis of rotation were perpendicular to the plane of the ecliptic,then the direct rays of the Sun would always shine on the equator (that is, the angle of incidence at the equator would be 90 degrees), and you would always see the Sun just on the horizon at the North and South Poles (that is, the angle of incidence at the Poles would be zero): If that were the case, we would have no seasons. However, the Earth’s axis is not perpendicular to the plane of the ecliptic. If you drew a line perpendicular to the plane of the ecliptic, the Earth’s axis of rotation would be tilted, or inclined, at an angle of about 23.5 degrees with respect to the perpendicular line. It is this inclination of the Earth’s axis of rotation that is the reason for the seasons. The Earth maintains the same angle of inclination throughout its orbit."

Norway maybe on the same latitude as Alaska or Siberia, but the warm waters of the Gulf Stream (via a system of ocean currents called the North Atlantic Conveyor) keeps Norway surprisingly temperate. In the far reaches of Northern Norway, winter temperatues average only -4 degrees Celsius. However, temperature extremes where highs exceed 30 degrees C in the summer of -30 degrees C in the winter aren't uncommon. In fact, we were in the midst of such a heat spell while in Bodø in our first trip back in 2005. I'd say the best time (especially for waterfalling) is somewhere in late June and early July. It is during this time that you'll get peak snowmelts from winter accumulations and a reasonable chance of decent weather (though it can rain year round especially around the fjords). Moreover, you can take advantage of the longest days of the year, and as you get above the Arctic Circle (in the northern parts of Nordland county and above), you'll experience the midnight sun. Depending on the snowpack, hiking becomes more feasible and temperatures are more comfortable."

This ocean, called the Arctic Ocean, is like no other ocean on Earth; and because of its special location and climate, the lands that surround it are unique. Most commonly, scientists define the Arctic as the region above the Arctic Circle, an imaginary line that circles the globe at approximately 66° 34' N (dashed blue circle in the map at right). The Arctic Circle marks the latitude above which the sun does not set on the summer solstice, and does not rise on the winter solstice."

"text": "\"Visualization of the ice and snow covering Earth's north and south polar regions Northern Hemisphere permafrost (permanently frozen ground) in purple The polar regions of Earth, also known as Earth 's frigid zones, are the regions of Earth surrounding its geographical poles (the North and South Poles ). These regions are dominated by Earth's polar ice caps, the northern resting on the Arctic Ocean and the southern on the continent of Antarctica. Contents [ hide ]1 Terrestrial polar regions1.1 Definitions1.2 Climate1.3 Circumpolar Arctic region1.4 Antarctica and the Southern sea2 References3 External links4 Further reading Terrestrial polar regions [ edit]Definitions [ edit]The Arctic has various definitions, including the region north of the Arctic Circle (currently Epoch 2010 at 66°33'44\"\" N), or the region north of 60° north latitude, or the region from the North Pole south to the timberline. The Antarctic is usually defined as south of 60° south latitude, or the continent of Antarctica. The 1959 Antarctic Treaty uses the former definition. The two polar regions are distinguished from the other two climatic and biomatic belts of Earth, a tropics belt near the equator, and two middle latitude regions located between the tropics and polar regions. Climate [ edit]Main article: Polar climate Polar regions receive less intense solar radiation than the other parts of Earth because the sun's energy arrives at an oblique angle, spreading over a larger area, and also travels a longer distance through the Earth's atmosphere in which it may be absorbed, scattered or reflected, which is the same thing that causes winters to be colder than the rest of the year in temperate areas. The axial tilt of the Earth has a major effect on climate of the polar regions. Since the polar regions are the farthest from the equator, they receive the least amount of sunlight and are therefore frigid. The large amount of ice and snow also reflects a large part of what little sunlight the Polar regions receive, contributing to the cold."

The dunes of the Saharan Desert, the icy tundra of Antarctica, and the Pacific coastline of the Atacama Desert are all deserts. That is right; they are all scientifically classified as deserts despite their differences. But it is quite simple, really, as they all share one common trait that qualifies them as a desert region: they all receive less than 10 inches (250 mm) of rainfall a year. Because of the diversity of deserts under this definition, they have been split into sub-regions: Sub-Tropical Deserts, Cool Coastal Deserts, Cold Winter Deserts, and Polar Deserts.

Some animals can live in hot deserts and also in cold deserts, but some have specially adapted to living in the very low temperatures of cold deserts. There are quite a number of animals that live in the Gobi, Great Basin, and Atacama deserts. They have developed special adaptations to withstand the cold temperatures, like the presence of very thick fur and the inability to sweat. But mammals are more likely to appear in cold deserts than reptiles. With coats of fur and warm blood (meaning that they can maintain a stable internal temperature even when the ambient atmospheric temperature dips), mammals are well-adapted to deal with freezing winters. However, some lizards and snakes do make their homes in certain cold deserts. In the Gobi, there live bactrian camels, gazelles, golden eagles, gerbils, jerboas, lizards, wolves, and even the elusive snow leopard. The smallest animal species living in the Gobi is known as the jerboa. These small rodents are built almost like kangaroos, with powerful hind legs allowing them to leap as much as 10 feet at a time."

An oceanic basin is the land surface under an ocean that includes the various topography below the water. This includes the continental shelf, abyssal plain, mid-ocean ridge and other formations that may exist on the seafloor. Another definition of an oceanic basin refers specifically to the abyssal plain that lies between higher formations such as a continental shelf and mid-ocean ridge. How are Oceanic Basins Formed? An ocean basin is formed when water has covered a large portion of the Earth’s crust. In the distant past, this may have happened when there was an increase in available water, or a fall of landmass. Over a long period of time, an oceanic basin can be created by the spreading of the seafloor and the movement of tectonic plates. The Atlantic Ocean Basin as it exists today was created over millions of years, as the continents of Europe, Africa and America separated, riding on tectonic plates. How Large is an Oceanic Basin?"

"text": "\"PROJECT EXPLORE INSTRUCTIONAL MODULE #6 FOCUS QUESTION: WHAT LIVES IN ANTARCTICA AND HOW DO THEY SURVIVE? ............................................................................ Val Olness University of Minnesota Minneapolis, Minnesota BACKGROUND INFORMATION INHABITANTS There are no permanent inhabitants in Antarctica. What little exposed rock there is supports only sparse vegetation (mostly algae, lichens, and mosses), microbial life (bacteria and fungi), and a few hardy insects. While a great variety of insects, birds, and land mammals live in the high Arctic year round, only a handful of tiny invertebrates -- not a single land vertebrate -- can survive the Antarctic winter. There is an abundance of life in Antarctic waters -- waters generally considered to be those south of 60 degrees S. latitude. Seabirds, seals, penguins, and whales are perhaps the best known life forms -- consuming enormous quantities of fish, squid, and krill. Why are there no permanent inhabitants of Antarctica? Antarctica is the highest and coldest continent -- its average height is three times that of other continents (4,900 meters above sea level) and it is by far the coldest continent with minimum temperatures considerably lower than the Arctic. In the vicinity of the South Pole, the average annual temperature is minus 49 degrees Celsius, and the coldest temperature ever recorded on Earth was recorded at the Soviet outpost Vostok Station, which has the dubious distinction of being known as the \"\"coldest place on Earth\"\". On 21 July 1983 a record low temperature of -89.6 degrees C. (-125.8 degrees F.) was recorded and this did not take into account \"\"wind chill!\"\""

Credit: Dr. Mike Goebel, NOAA NMFS SWFSCTravel to the ends of the earth—literally—and discover the polar ocean basins. Both the Arctic Ocean and the Southern Ocean are defined by ice and dramatic shifts between endless day and endless night. The environments at the poles are some of the harshest on Earth—yet animals have found ways to survive there against the odds. Although both are icy and frigid, the poles are actually more different than you might expect. In the northern polar region, the water and ice of the Arctic Ocean are surrounded by land. Depending on the season, much or all of the Arctic Ocean is covered by a layer of sea ice, ranging in thickness from a few inches to over six feet, which is always shifting as it floats on the ocean's surface. On the adjacent land, communities of native peoples have thrived for thousands of years by adapting to life along the edge of the ice. Meanwhile, the southern polar region has the opposite geography, with the huge landmass of Antarctica surrounded by the turbulent Southern Ocean. All but one or two percent of Antarctic land is covered by glaciers, some of which are more than 15,000 feet (4,700 meters) thick."

Routing numbers are also known as banking routing numbers, routing transit numbers, RTNs, ABA numbers, and sometimes SWIFT codes (although these are quite different from routing numbers as SWIFT codes are solely used for international wire transfers while routing numbers are used for domestic transfers). Routing numbers differ for checking and savings accounts, prepaid cards, IRAs, lines of credit, and wire transfers. All banks usually have separate routing numbers for each of the states in the US. You can look for the routing number on the check (cheque book) issued by your credit union or can search this website for free."

Many of the museums are within walking distance of each other and easily accessible via public transportation. To help easily and conveniently transport guests who wish to visit multiple museums in Sacramento’s urban core, Sacramento Regional Transit (Sac RT) is offering free rides on all buses and light rail trains on Saturday, February 3 only with a printed Sac RT Museum Day flyer (only one flyer needed per family or group).

It is a nice, round number that gets thrown around all the time in movies, commercials, annual reports and blackmail notes, but hardly anyone knows what that kind of money really looks like. Would it all fit in a paper bag? A backpack? A shipping container? The first step in showing \"\"how much is inside\"\" was withdraw one million dollars from my bank account. I quickly realized that the exiled Nigerians had not yet deposited my payoff, so I had to settle for a bit less. One hundred dollars came in a tidy packet, with a cute blue paper band."

In the past 15 years, as costs have escalated in California’s coastal cities, thousands have migrated to the area for its reduced cost of living and proximity to San Francisco and Lake Tahoe. Now, as a result, growth and traffic issues have become top-of-mind issues for the area. Downtown Sacramento is pleasant and attractive but somewhat lacking in entertainment and activities (aside from restored historic “Old Sacramento” riverfront downtown area). Most recent growth has occurred to the north, northeast, and south as typical California sprawl- freeways, strip malls, and endless developments of tightly packed homes.

[ 2] With the rapid expansion and globalisation of the sport, the 121st International Olympic Committee recommended adding golf back into the Summer Olympics. Ty Votaw, who was the Executive Vice President of Communications and International Affairs and Vice President of the International Golf Federation, along with Peter Dawson, who was the president of the IGF and chief executive of the Royal and Ancient Golf Club, were at the forefront of making golf an Olympic sport once again. [ 3]Prior to the vote to reinstate golf into the 2016 and 2020 Summer Olympic Games, a presentation by a group of golf ambassadors helped sway the 121st session of the International Olympic Committee. These ambassadors included: Dawson and Votaw, along with four pro golfers: 3-time major champion Pádraig Harrington of Ireland, Michelle Wie of the United States, Women's PGA Champion Suzann Pettersen of Norway and 16-year-old 2009 British Amateur champion Matteo Manassero of Italy. [ 4] Dawson was quoted saying: \"\"We are extremely grateful that Padraig, Michelle, Suzann and Matteo were able to join us to help communicate the genuine interest world-class players of all ages share in golf becoming an Olympic sport.\"\" On 9 October 2009, the International Olympic Committee had their final vote and the vote passed, which officially made golf an Olympic sport for the 2016 and 2020 Summer games.

The Siouan -speaking tribe historically migrated from the Ohio Valley area to the west side of the Mississippi River and resettled in what is now the state of Arkansas; their name for themselves refers to this migration and traveling downriver. [ 3] Europeans first learned their name as the Arkansea, the term used by the Algonquian -speaking Illinois Confederation traders encountered to the east. They named the territory and state of Arkansas for them. The Quapaw are federally recognized as the Quapaw Tribe of Indians.

It is to recognize that we aren't alone in the Universe... we alone are the Universe. We are the cosmos coming to know itself, to love itself... and when you witness that for even the briefest of moments, you will see... there is nothing more beautiful.-- Silver Surfer [src]The Power Cosmic is the name of a vast source of limitless godly cosmic energy and power primarily wielded by the god-like cosmic entity Galactus. The Power Cosmic allows Galactus to employ the available absorbed cosmic energies within him to produce nearly any effect he desires, including size-alteration, the molecular restructuring and transmutation of matter, the teleportation of objects—even entire galaxies—across space and time, the creation of force fields, the creation of interdimensional portals, telepathy, telekinesis, and cosmic awareness on a universal scale. Galactus has even been shown as capable of creating sentient life, resurrecting the dead, manipulating mortal souls and remaking dead worlds—including their populations—in every detail. The Silver Surfer, as well as most of the Heralds of Galactus, possess certain measures of the Power Cosmic. Bestowed on them by Galactus during their service to him, their abilities and assigned elements of influence vary, but the power can usually be expelled violently as concussive force, and sometimes, among other things, used with precision as a means to restructure molecules according to the user's mental design. However, heralds are imbued with only a fraction of the amount possessed by Galactus, and the latter has repeatedly been shown able to strip them of the power he has afforded them. During the Annihilation, the Power Cosmic is revealed to be a force that replaces the \"\"auras,\"\" or souls of the characters imbued with its properties. As a result, no two wielders of the Power Cosmic are similar, as each wielder's form and body adapt to fit the function of controlling and storing the Power Cosmic."

"text": "Famous Ancient Greek Names Reserved for Gods and Mere Mortals In ancient Greece, men and women had unique first names; they had no middle and last names. Even though many names are no longer used today, some Greek names have withstood the test of time and are as popular today as they were ages ago. Here, we present you with a list of popular ancient Greek names along with their meanings. Ancient Greece is considered to be the cradle of western civilization and is the birthplace of many famous philosophers, kings, and heroes. The time period of the ancient Greek civilization was between the Archaic period of 8th to 6th century BC to the end of antiquity i.e. 6th century AD. It was a civilization that gave the world western philosophy, literature, democracy, art and sculptures, and the Olympic games. The ancient Greeks were known to be pioneers in formulating logically valid ideas for government, science, theory, religion, and fine arts. They were truly unique in all aspects of life be it food, religion, names or culture. Speaking of names, as mentioned earlier, ancient Greeks had no last names and were identified with only their first name. Their names would either be simple names derived from a noun or adjective along with a suffix."

It is a syndrome, and not a disease, with several possible causes. This is due to the complexity of the respiratory system and its diverse components. Breathing can be understand as a chain whose links are composed by the interaction between various organs and systems of the human body. Figure1. The Respiratory System Chain The three first components of the chain constitute what is called the “ventilatory pump” and are responsible for the minute and alveolar ventilation. Failure in its function results in PCO 2 retention in the blood and hypercapnia, which would secondarily compromise oxygenation, limiting alveolar gas renewal. On the other hand, pulmonary parenchyma and airways disorders (specially, in the lower respiratory tract) result in defective oxygenation but with maintenance of the CO 2 elimination, provided that the ventilatory “pump” works properly."

[email protected] BACKGROUND: The diagnostic criteria for acute lung injury (ALI) and ARDS utilize the Pao (2)/fraction of inspired oxygen (Fio (2)) [P/F] ratio measured by arterial blood gas analysis to assess the degree of hypoxemia. We hypothesized that the pulse oximetric saturation (Spo (2))/Fio (2) (S/F) ratio can be substituted for the P/F ratio in assessing the oxygenation criterion of ALI. METHODS: Corresponding measurements of Spo (2) (values </= 97%) and Pao (2) from patients enrolled in the ARDS Network trial of a lower tidal volume ventilator strategy (n = 672) were compared to determine the relationship between S/F and P/F. S/F threshold values correlating with P/F ratios of 200 (ARDS) and 300 (ALI) were determined."

Global Entry has shortened our time at US passport control and has also made us eligible for TSA Pre Check. We would recommend Global Entry for anyone that travels internationally – even a couple of times a year. If you are thinking of applying for Global Entry, read on for our Guide to the the Global Entry Application and Interview Process. What is Global Entry? Global Entry allows travelers to enter the US more quickly. Instead of waiting in a long line to see a border control agent, you answer a few questions at a kiosk, scan your fingerprints, show your receipt to an agent and exit the passport control area. Here is the description of the Global Entry program according to the U. S. Customs and Border Protection website:“ Global Entry is a U. S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) program that allows expedited clearance for pre-approved, low-risk travelers upon arrival in the United States. Members enter the United States through automatic kiosks at select airports. At airports, program members proceed to Global Entry kiosks, present their machine-readable passport or U. S. permanent resident card, place their fingerprints on the scanner for fingerprint verification and complete a customs declaration."

"text": "Prone position in acute respiratory distress syndrome P. Pelosi, L. Brazzi, L. Gattinoni European Respiratory Journal 2002 20: 1017-1028; DOI: 10.1183/09031936.02.00401702Article Figures & Data Info & Metrics PDFAbstract In the last few years prone positioning has been used increasingly in the treatment of patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and this manoeuvre is now considered a simple and safe method to improve oxygenation. However, the physiological mechanisms causing respiratory function improvement as well as the real clinical benefit are not yet fully understood. The aim of this review is to discuss the physiological and clinical effects of prone positioning in patients with ARDS. The main physiological aims of prone positioning are: 1) to improve oxygenation; 2) to improve respiratory mechanics; 3) to homogenise the pleural pressure gradient, the alveolar inflation and the ventilation distribution; 4) to increase lung volume and reduce the amount of atelectatic regions; 5) to facilitate the drainage of secretions; and 6) to reduce ventilator-associated lung injury. According to the available data, the authors conclude that: 1) oxygenation improves in ∼70–80% of patients with early acute respiratory distress syndrome; 2) the beneficial effects of oxygenation reduce after 1 week of mechanical ventilation; 3) the aetiology of acute respiratory distress syndrome may markedly affect the response to prone positioning; 4) extreme care is necessary when the manoeuvre is performed; 5) pressure sores are frequent and related to the number of pronations; 6) the supports used to prone and during positioning are different and nonstandardised among centres; and 7) intensive care unit and hospital stay and mortality still remain high despite prone positioning.acute respiratory distress syndrome intensive care oxygenationprospective studies Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is characterised by radiographical diffuse bilateral infiltrates, decreased respiratory compliance, small lung volumes and severe hypoxaemia. Correction of life-threatening hypoxia and improvement of respiratory mechanics and lung volumes are the main treatment goals. To achieve these ends, it is important to select the most appropriate means of ventilatory support, thereby minimising the damaging effects of mechanical ventilation. Currently, ventilatory support using small tidal volumes and low plateau pressures and respiratory rate, to control arterial carbon dioxide tension ( P a,CO 2) and p H, are considered optimal 1. Moreover, the application of relatively high levels of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) seems to be beneficial in reducing ventilator-associated lung injury (VALI) and improving survival 2. In 1974, Bryan 3 suggested that anaesthetised and paralysed patients in the prone position should exhibit better expansion of the dorsal lung regions with a consequent improvement in oxygenation."

"text": "Print Overview Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) occurs when fluid builds up in the tiny, elastic air sacs (alveoli) in your lungs. The fluid keeps your lungs from filling with enough air, which means less oxygen reaches your bloodstream. This deprives your organs of the oxygen they need to function. ARDS typically occurs in people who are already critically ill or who have significant injuries. Severe shortness of breath — the main symptom of ARDS — usually develops within a few hours to a few days after the precipitating injury or infection. Many people who develop ARDS don't survive. The risk of death increases with age and severity of illness. Of the people who do survive ARDS, some recover completely while others experience lasting damage to their lungs. Symptoms The signs and symptoms of ARDS can vary in intensity, depending on its cause and severity, as well as the presence of underlying heart or lung disease. They include: Severe shortness of breath Labored and unusually rapid breathing Low blood pressure Confusion and extreme tiredness When to see a doctor ARDS usually follows a major illness or injury, and most people who are affected are already hospitalized."

Next Section Abstract• Objective To review the literature on the limitations and consequences of packed red blood cell transfusions, with particular attention to critically ill patients.• Methods The Pub Med database of the National Library of Medicine was searched to find published articles on the indications, clinical utility, limitations, and consequences of red blood cell transfusion, especially in critically ill patients.• Results Several dozen papers were reviewed, including case series, meta-analyses, and retrospective and prospective studies evaluating the physiological effects, clinical efficacy, and consequences and complications of transfusion of packed red blood cells. Most available data indicate that packed red blood cells have a very limited ability to augment oxygen delivery to tissues. In addition, the overwhelming preponderance of data accumulated in the past decade indicate that patients receiving such transfusions have significantly poorer outcomes than do patients not receiving such transfusions, as measured by a variety of parameters including, but not limited to, death and infection.• Conclusions According to the available data, transfusion of packed red blood cells should be reserved only for situations in which clear physiological indicators for transfusion are present. Notice to CE enrollees: A closed-book, multiple-choice examination following this article tests your understanding of the following objectives: Examine data regarding critical care patients and packed red blood cell transfusion. Identify circumstances in which transfusions are necessary. Discuss the consequences of routine packed red blood cell transfusions in critically ill patients.

In 20 pigs with oleic acid-induced lung edema, we compared the effects of a PEEP of 20 cm H 2 O with IRV, using an inspiratory-to-expiratory ratio of 3:1 without external PEEP. During IRV, expiration times of 0.5 or 1.0 s were obtained with respiratory rates of 30 breaths/min or 15 breaths/min, respectively. In 15 animals, ventilation–perfusion relationships were studied through the multiple inert gas elimination technique, and lung morphology was studied with computed tomography. In another five pigs, blood flow distribution was studied with perfusion scintigraphy. All three ventilatory modes had similar effects on mean arterial blood pressure, cardiac output, oxygen delivery, and mean airway pressure. PEEP reduced shunt and improved oxygenation to a greater extent than the two modes of IRV, although there was a large variation within each group. The improvement, irrespective of which ventilatory mode was superior in a particular pig, was caused by greater and more even aeration of the lung, whereas the perfusion distribution with PEEP was the same as with IRV. Thus, the strategy of stabilizing the lungs through short expiration times, as in IRV, did not offer any advantages in our lung injury model. Inverse ratio ventilation (IRV) has been proposed for the treatment of patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) because it may improve gas exchange over that achieved with conventional ventilatory modes ( 1-4 )."

Texas Education Agency, TEA, Chapter 89, Subchapter AA: (2) Deaf-blindness. A student with deaf-blindness is one who has been determined to meet the criteria for deaf-blindness as stated in 34 CFR, §300.7 (c) (2). In meeting the criteria stated in 34 CFR, §300.7 (c) (2), a student with deaf-blindness is one who, based on the evaluations specified in subsections (c) (3) and (c) (12) of this section: (A) meets the eligibility criteria for auditory impairment specified in subsection (c) (3) of this section and visual impairment specified in subsection (c) (12) of this section; (B) meets the eligibility criteria for a student with a visual impairment and has a suspected hearing loss that cannot be demonstrated conclusively, but a speech/language therapist, a certified speech and language therapist, or a licensed speech language pathologist indicates there is no speech at an age when speech would normally be expected; (C) has documented hearing and visual losses that, if considered individually, may not meet the requirements for auditory impairment or visual impairment, but the combination of such losses adversely affects the student's educational performance; or (D) has a documented medical diagnosis of a progressive medical condition that will result in concomitant hearing and visual losses that, without special education intervention, will adversely affect the student's educational performance. Meeting eligibility in one of these ways requires both hearing and vision professionals at least attend ARD meetings. The majority of students reported on the Deafblind Census will fall into one of the 4 categories above. Examples of (A) could includea child with Usher Syndrome 1, where the hearing loss is well documented and the vision loss has resulted in visual field loss.a child with hearing loss and vision result of prenatal exposure to CMV as the cause of both hearing and vision loss. An example of (B) could include students with suspected hearing loss and the team needs one year to confirm or deny the presence of the hearing loss. It was not intended that these students maintain this form of eligibility for longer than one year."

"text": "Smart Water Tank Pump Switcher T. K. Hareendranwater For the residents who live in rural-areas, limited water-availability is a very common problem. Therefore, many people install a water tank on the roof of the building. The water, stored in a water tank at the basement (ground) is pumped into the water tank on the roof using a pumping motor. In this manner, the limited water-availability problem can be improved and the water can be used in a more efficient way if an automatic water tank pump controller is included in the setup. Using traditional for water level controller has the advantages of simple structure and low cost. Traditional water level controller can control the water between two levels with the help of floating balls/float switch as the sensors for level detection. According to the positions of the floating balls/float switch, the electric connection of the pumping motor is set to be on or off. However, the controller unit is usually placed at the top of water tank, humidity may corrode the contact points of the sensor switch. This will cause the sensor switch to mal-function. Meanwhile, since there are no means to detect the water level of the basement water tank, it is possible that the pumping motor will be burned if there is very low/zero water level in the basement water tank."

"text": "\"Servo Magazine (September 2014)Using Stepper Motors for Wheeled Robot Propulsion By Theron Wierenga View In Digital Edition» Skip to the Extras A few years back, I became interested in attempting to propel a wheeled robot using stepper motors. This is not the usual method for propelling a robot. A more typical approach is to use two traditional DC motors. Individual differences in the two DC motors are then accommodated by optical feedback that provides data which can be used to match the speed of the two motors. The characteristics of stepper motors that appealed to me were their ability to precisely turn a wheel at a calculated distance and their ability to brake. Stepper motors are not a panacea for robot propulsion. They are heavier, use more power, and have far less torque than traditional DC motors. In addition, they cannot be operated at great rotational speeds and the faster they run, the less torque they have. One needs to be careful in selecting a stepping motor. It has to have enough holding torque for robot propulsion."

Our specialised facilities allow us to quickly and easily run a variety of tests to fully analyse the performance of the motor under a variety of conditions. But what if you need to quickly check something yourself? Thankfully it only takes a couple of components to get some rough and ready results. You can use this guide to understand how to measure the vibration strength of a vibration motor or LRA. Please Note: It is important to stress that this is a quick and crude method! If you’re in a rush and need basic information (vibration amplitude) you can use this post to get some data easily. Our in-house profiling and tests are based on similar ideas, but are much more advanced and accurate. If you need detailed specifications (such as vibration frequency, haptic response times, etc) then you can contact us to discuss your application.

Arduino is designed to make electronics more accessible to artists, designers, hobbyists and ayone interested in creating interactive objects or environments. An Arduino board can be purchased pre-assembled or, because the hardware design is open source, built by hand. Either way, users can adapt the boards to their needs, as well as update and distribute their own versions. Techopedia explains Arduino A pre-assembled Arduino board includes a microcontroller, which is programmed using Arduino programming language and the Arduino development environment. In essence, this platform provides a way to build and program electronic components. Arduino programming language is a simplified from of C/C++ programming language based on what Arduino calls \"\"sketches,\"\" which use basic programming structures, variables and functions. These are then converted into a C++ program. Other open-source electronics prototyping projects, such as Wiring and Processing, provide the underpinnings for Arduino technology."

As I have alluded to in previous lessons, the code you learn to write for your Arduino will be very similar to code you write in any other computer language - all the basic concepts remain the same - it's just a matter of learning a new dialect should you pursue other ventures. The code you will be writing is called \"\"human readable\"\", that is, it will make sense to you (sometimes) and will be organized for a human to follow. Part of the job of the IDE is to take the human readable code and translate it into machine-readable code to be executed by the Arduino. This process is called compiling. The process of compiling is seamless to the user. All you have to do is press a button. If you have some errors in your computer code, the compiler will display an error message at the bottom of the IDE and highlight the line of code that seems to be the issue. The error message is meant to help you identify what you might have done wrong - sometimes they are very explicit, like saying, \"\"Hey - you forget a semi-colon\"\", some times they are way out there. Why would I be concerned with a semi colon you ask?"

It starts with a sketch for flashing Morse code and explains how to convert its functions into a library. This allows other people to easily use the code that you've written and to easily update it as you improve the library. For more information, see the API Style Guide for information on making a good Arduino-style API for your library. We start with a sketch that does simple Morse code:int pin = 13;void setup () {pin Mode ( pin, OUTPUT);}void loop () { dot (); dot (); dot (); dash (); dash (); dash (); dot (); dot (); dot ();delay ( 3000);}void dot () {digital Write ( pin, HIGH);delay ( 250);digital Write ( pin, LOW);delay ( 250);}void dash () {digital Write ( pin, HIGH);delay ( 1000);digital Write ( pin, LOW);delay ( 250);} [Get Code]If you run this sketch, it will flash out the code for SOS (a distress call) on pin 13. The sketch has a few different parts that we'll need to bring into our library. First, of course, we have the dot () and dash () functions that do the actual blinking. Second, there's the led Pin variable which the functions use to determine which pin to use. Finally, there's the call to pin Mode () that initializes the pin as an output. Let's start turning the sketch into a library!You need at least two files for a library: a header file (w/ the extension .h) and the source file (w/ extension .cpp)."

"text": "\"What is a temperature sensor? An analog temperature sensor is pretty easy to explain, it's a chip that tells you what the ambient temperature is! These sensors use a solid-state technique to determine the temperature. That is to say, they don't use mercury (like old thermometers), bimetallic strips (like in some home thermometers or stoves), nor do they use thermistors (temperature sensitive resistors). Instead, they use the fact as temperature increases, the voltage across a diode increases at a known rate. ( Technically, this is actually the voltage drop between the base and emitter - the Vbe - of a transistor. By precisely amplifying the voltage change, it is easy to generate an analog signal that is directly proportional to temperature. There have been some improvements on the technique but, essentially that is how temperature is measured. Because these sensors have no moving parts, they are precise, never wear out, don't need calibration, work under many environmental conditions, and are consistent between sensors and readings. Moreover they are very inexpensive and quite easy to use."

Liam Lacey shows how to make your own DIY MIDI controller using Teensy with 8 retro arcade push buttons. When teaching DIY MIDI controller development I usually recommend using the Arduino platform due to its large user community and the extensive amount of learning resources. However there is a similar hardware platform that is actually better suited and easier to use for building USB-MIDI controllers, which is also more powerful at a cheaper price; the Teensy platform. The only downside of using Teensy compared to Arduino is that there just aren’t as many examples or tutorials in regards to MIDI controller development, therefore I’ve written this tutorial to help overcome this shortcoming and aid in highlighting Teensy as a great hardware platform for the audio/MIDI maker community. A Teensy microcontroller board In this tutorial I’m going to show you how to build a simple MIDI controller that consists of 8 retro arcade push buttons for sending MIDI message, as well as a toggle switch for choosing whether the arcade buttons send note message or CC messages. It may seem like this controller has limited functionality compared to commercial MIDI controllers, however this project will serve as a good introduction for developing more complex controllers but without throwing you in at the deep end. Here is a video example of what you’ll be building: Teensy DIY MIDI Controller demo Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available.

"text": "Getting Started | FOUNDATION > Introduction English What is Arduino? Arduino is an open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware and software. Arduino boards are able to read inputs - light on a sensor, a finger on a button, or a Twitter message - and turn it into an output - activating a motor, turning on an LED, publishing something online. You can tell your board what to do by sending a set of instructions to the microcontroller on the board. To do so you use the Arduino programming language (based on Wiring ), and the Arduino Software (IDE), based on Processing . Over the years Arduino has been the brain of thousands of projects, from everyday objects to complex scientific instruments. A worldwide community of makers - students, hobbyists, artists, programmers, and professionals - has gathered around this open-source platform, their contributions have added up to an incredible amount of accessible knowledge that can be of great help to novices and experts alike. Arduino was born at the Ivrea Interaction Design Institute as an easy tool for fast prototyping, aimed at students without a background in electronics and programming. As soon as it reached a wider community, the Arduino board started changing to adapt to new needs and challenges, differentiating its offer from simple 8-bit boards to products for Io T applications, wearable, 3D printing, and embedded environments. All Arduino boards are completely open-source, empowering users to build them independently and eventually adapt them to their particular needs."

Easy Full instructions provided 37,133Story Different types of motors Robot is an electromechanical device which is capable of reacting in some way to its environment, and take autonomous decisions or actions in order to achieve a specific task. Roboticists develop man-made mechanical devices that can move by themselves, whose motion must be modelled, planned, sensed, actuated and controlled, and whose motion behavior can be influenced by “programming”. This definition implies that a device can only be called a “robot” if it contains a movable mechanism, influenced by sensing, planning, actuation and control components. Motors and actuators are the devices which make the robot movable. Motors and actuators convert electrical energy into physical motion. The vast majority of actuators produce either rotational or linear motion. In this article I will explain more common types of motors and actuators, their basics and how to control them. Step 1: Types of Motors;;1 / 6 • Servo motor You already know that electric motors are used to “actuate” something in your robot: its wheels, legs, tracks, arms, fingers, sensor turrets, camera, or weapon systems. There are literally dozens of types of electric motors but I will discuss the most common types used in amateur robotics."

Its use is to illuminate an area when a person walks by so that he or she can see better. Many people place motion detectors in their backyards or even in their houses so that when they walk through that area, the lights will automatically turn on. Thus, motion sensor lights are very popular and being increased in use. Businesses use them all the time such as for bathrooms, when a person walks in, the lights turn on. Or many times they are used in grocery stores for when you pass through an aisle or open up a refrigerator door in the freezer aisles. The applications are numerous.

Basically, there are a number of limiting factors: The IO lines from the microcontroller (i.e. the analog and digital pins) have both an aggregate (e.g. total) current limit, and an per-pin limit: From the ATmega328P datasheet. However, depending on how you define the Arduino \"\"Pins\"\", this is not the entire story. The 5V pin of the arduino is not connected through the microcontroller. As such, it can source significantly more power. When you are powering your arduino from USB, the USB interface limits your total power consumption to 500 m A. This is shared with the devices on the arduino board, so the available power will be somewhat less. When you are using an external power supply, through the barrel power connector, you are limited by the local 5V regulator, which is rated for a maximum of 1 Amp. However, this it also thermally limited, meaning that as you draw power, the regulator will heat up."

This article explains simple PWM techniques, as well as how to use the PWM registers directly for more control over the duty cycle and frequency. This article focuses on the Arduino Diecimila and Duemilanove models, which use the ATmega168 or ATmega328 . If you're unfamiliar with Pulse Width Modulation, see the tutorial. Briefly, a PWM signal is a digital square wave, where the frequency is constant, but that fraction of the time the signal is on (the duty cycle) can be varied between 0 and 100%. PWM examples PWM has several uses: Dimming an LEDProviding an analog output; if the digital output is filtered, it will provide an analog voltage between 0% and 100% . Generating audio signals. Providing variable speed control for motors. Generating a modulated signal, for example to drive an infrared LED for a remote control. Simple Pulse Width Modulation with analog Write The Arduino's programming language makes PWM easy to use; simply call analog Write (pin, duty Cycle), where duty Cycle is a value from 0 to 255, and pin is one of the PWM pins (3, 5, 6, 9, 10, or 11)."

Our specialised facilities allow us to quickly and easily run a variety of tests to fully analyse the performance of the motor under a variety of conditions. But what if you need to quickly check something yourself? Thankfully it only takes a couple of components to get some rough and ready results. You can use this guide to understand how to measure the vibration strength of a vibration motor or LRA. Please Note: It is important to stress that this is a quick and crude method! If you’re in a rush and need basic information (vibration amplitude) you can use this post to get some data easily. Our in-house profiling and tests are based on similar ideas, but are much more advanced and accurate.

Depending on the degree of the disorder present in an individual, excess bleeding may occuronly after specific, predictable events (such as surgery, dental procedures, or injury), or occurspontaneously, with no known initiating event. Description The normal mechanism for blood clotting is a complex series of events involving the interaction of the injured blood vessel, blood cells (called platelets), and over 20 different proteins which alsocirculate in the blood. When a blood vessel is injured in a way that causes bleeding, platelets collect over the injuredarea, and form a temporary plug to prevent further bleeding. This temporary plug, however, is toodisorganized to serve as a long-term solution, so a series of chemical events occur, resulting in the formation of a more reliable plug. The final plug involves tightly woven fibers of a materialcalled fibrin. The production of fibrin requires the interaction of several chemicals, in particular a series of proteins called clotting factors. At least thirteen different clotting factors have beenidentified. The clotting cascade, as it is usually called, is the series of events required to form the final fibrinclot."

Sex chromosomes are found within our reproductive cells and determine the sex of an individual. Traits are passed on from one generation to the next by our genes. Genes are segments of DNA found on chromosomes that carry information for protein production and that are responsible for the inheritance of specific traits. Genes exist in alternative forms called alleles. One allele for a trait is inherited from each parent. Like traits that originate from genes on autosomes (non-sex chromosomes), sex-linked traits are passed from parents to offspring through sexual reproduction.

One of the basic patterns of inheritance of our genes is called X-linked inheritance. What is X-linked inheritance? X-linked inheritance means that the gene causing the trait or the disorder is located on the X chromosome. Remember, females have two X chromosomes, while males have one X and one Y. Genes on the X can be recessive or dominant, and their expression in females and males is not the same because the genes on the Y chromosome do not exactly pair up with the genes on the X. X-linked recessive genes are expressed in females only if there are two copies of the gene (one on each X chromosome). However, for males, there only needs to be one copy of an X-linked recessive gene in order for the trait or disorder to be expressed. For example, a woman can carry a recessive gene on one of the X chromosomes unknowingly, and pass it on to a son, who will express the trait: Therefore, half of the daughters have the gene and can pass it to the next generation. The other half do not have the gene and, therefore, cannot pass it on. Half of the sons do not have the gene and cannot pass it on. The other half of the sons have inherited the gene and will express the trait or disorder."

"text": "\"Sex Determination and the Inheritance of Sex Linked Traits BACK NEXTSex Determination In many organisms sex is determined genetically. Often this is accompanied by chromosomal differences between the sexes. Chromosomes, structures made of proteins and coiled DNA, contain all the genetic information of an organism. Two kinds of chromosome exist: the autosomes and the sex chromosomes. All individuals have two copies of each autosome, while the number and kinds of sex chromosomes varies between males and females. For example, in humans, there are 23 \"\"pairs\"\" of chromosomes: 22 autosomal pairs, and one \"\"pair\"\" of sex chromosomes. The autosomal pairs are simply numbered 1 through 22 according to their size (with chromosome 1 being the biggest, although chromosome 22 isn't actually the smallest – oops! ), while the sex chromosomes are called X and Y. Females are determined by two identical sex chromosomes: their genotype is XX. Males, on the other hand, are determined by a single X in combination with the second kind of sex chromosome, a Y. Therefore, a male's genotype is XY. Not every organism with a genetic sex determination goes by the familiar X and Y system."

Children with hemophilia can’t stop bleeding because they don’t have enough clotting factor in their blood. Clotting factors are needed for blood to clot. Blood clots to prevent excessive bleeding. There are many blood clotting factors involved in the forming of clots to stop bleeding. Two common factors that affect blood clotting are factor VIII and factor IX. How severe your child’s hemophilia is depends on the level of blood clotting factors in his or her blood. The 3 main forms of hemophilia include: Hemophilia A.

"text": "Hemophilia Symptoms When to See Your Doctor Causes Diagnosis Complications Treatments Prevention What Is Hemophilia? Hemophilia is an inherited bleeding disorder in which a person lacks or has low levels of certain proteins called “clotting factors” and the blood doesn’t clot properly as a result. This leads to excessive bleeding. There are 13 types of clotting factors, and these work with platelets to help the blood clot. Platelets are small blood cells that form in your bone marrow. According to the World Federation of Hemophilia (WFH), about one in 10,000 people are born with this disease. People with hemophilia bleed easily, and the blood takes a longer time to clot. People with hemophilia can experience spontaneous or internal bleeding and often have painful, swollen joints due to bleeding into the joints. This rare but serious condition can have life-threatening complications. The three forms of hemophilia are hemophilia A, B, and C. Hemophilia A is the most common type of hemophilia, and it’s caused by a deficiency in factor VIII."

"text": "What is hemophilia? Hemophilia is a rare, inherited bleeding disorder in which blood cannot clot (form a mass) normally at the site of a wound or injury. The disorder occurs because certain blood clotting factors are missing or do not work properly. Because a clot does not form, extensive bleeding can be caused from a cut or wound. Spontaneous internal bleeding can occur as well, especially in the joints and muscles. Hemophilia affects males only, but there are rare circumstances when a female can be affected with the disorder. There are two types of inherited hemophilia: Type A, the most common type, is caused by a deficiency of factor VIII, one of the proteins that helps blood to form clots. Type B hemophilia is caused by a deficiency of factor IX. Although hemophilia is usually diagnosed at birth, the disorder can also be acquired later in life if the body begins to produce antibodies that attack and destroy clotting factors. However, this acquired type of hemophilia is very rare."

Last updated Thu 7 December 2017By Peter Crosta Reviewed by Nancy Choi, MDCauses Types Symptoms Diagnosis Treatment Living with hemophilia Hemophilia is a rare condition in which the blood does not clot properly. It mostly affects men. People with hemophilia lack a protein called a clotting factor, which works with platelets to stop bleeding at the site of an injury. This means the person tends to bleed for a longer time after an injury, and they are more susceptible to internal bleeding. This bleeding can be fatal if it occurs within a vital organ such as the brain. There are currently about 20,000 people living with hemophilia in the United States. Causes Hemophilia is a blood clotting disorder. In hemophilia, the blood does not clot as it should. Hemophilia is normally an inherited disorder."

"text": "Disorders Of Secondary Hemostatic Defects Hemophilias are a group of related bleeding disorders that are one of the most common and severe of the inherited bleeding disorders. Hemophilia A results from a deficiency in factor VIII and hemophilia B, also known as Christmas disease, results from a deficiency in factor IX. Because 30% of hemophilia patients have new mutations and a negative family history, any infant male with significant neonatal bleeding should be screened for hemophilia. The type of bleeding varies with the severity of the factor deficiency. Mild disease, 6-30% factor activity level, are characterized by infrequent episodes of bleeding that occur primarily after surgery or trauma. Patients that have moderately severe hemophilia, 1-5% factor activity level, will occasionally have spontaneous hemorrhages with hemarthrosis and spontaneous hematomas and are at risk after even minor hemostatic challenges. Severe disease, <1% factor activity level, will develop spontaneous hemorrhages from early infancy, usually with the onset of ambulation and requires factor replacement therapy. Epidemiology Generally, sex-linked recessive in nature, with males being affected more than females since it is carried on the X-chromosome. Hemophilia A has a prevalence of 10/100,000 males and hemophilia B 2/100,000 males. Hemophilia A, hemophilia B and von Willebrand’s disease together account for >90% of all inherited bleeding disorders."

"text": "\"Hemophilia is an inherited bleeding disorder in which the blood does not clot properly. This can lead to spontaneous bleeding as well as bleeding following injuries or surgery. Blood contains many proteins called clotting factors that can help to stop bleeding. People with hemophilia have low levels of either factor VIII (8) or factor IX (9). The severity of hemophilia that a person has is determined by the amount of factor in the blood. The lower the amount of the factor, the more likely it is that bleeding will occur which can lead to serious health problems. Causes Hemophilia is caused by a mutation or change, in one of the genes, that provides instructions for making the clotting factor proteins needed to form a blood clot. This change or mutation can prevent the clotting protein from working properly or to be missing altogether. These genes are located on the X chromosome. Males have one X and one Y chromosome (XY) and females have two X chromosomes (XX)."

With the increasing ability to control infectious and nutritional diseases in developed countries, there has come the realization that genetic diseases are a major cause of disability, death, and human tragedy. Rare, indeed, is the family that is entirely free of any known genetic disorder. Many thousands of different genetic disorders with defined clinical symptoms have been identified. Of the 3 to 6 percent of newborns with a recognized birth defect, at least half involve a predominantly genetic contribution. Furthermore, genetic defects are the major known cause of pregnancy loss in developed nations, and almost half of all spontaneous abortions ( miscarriages) involve a chromosomally abnormal fetus. About 30 percent of all postnatal infant mortality in developed countries is due to genetic disease; 30 percent of pediatric and 10 percent of adult hospital admissions can be traced to a predominantly genetic cause. Finally, medical investigators estimate that genetic defects—however minor—are present in at least 10 percent of all adults. Thus, these are not rare events. A congenital defect is any biochemical, functional, or structural abnormality that originates prior to or shortly after birth."

"text": "Are Lizards Warm Blooded or Cold Blooded? With a few exceptions all reptiles such as the lizard are cold blooded creatures. The temperature of an animal’s blood (whether an animal is warm blooded or cold blooded) is related to its body temperature. Cold blooded creatures such as the lizard take on the temperature of their surroundings. In other words, they are hot when their environment is hot and cold when their environment is cold. In hot environments, cold blooded animals can have blood that is much warmer than warm blooded animals. Cold blooded animals are also much more active in warm environments and are very sluggish in cold environments. This is because their muscle activity depends on chemical reactions which run quickly when it is and slowly when it is cold. Cold blooded creatures such as the lizard can covert much more of its food into body mass compared to warm blooded animals. Whereas many warm blooded animals sweat or pant to lose heat by water evaporation and can cool off by moving into a shaded area or getting wet, cold blooded animals such as the lizard often like to bask in the sun to warm up and increase their metabolism."

Most of them are tetrapods, with four legs or leg-like appendages. It is believed that reptiles started evolving around 330 million years ago and developed many abilities. They are considered as the first animals on land with the ability to live and multiply on land, with the help of their amniotic eggs. They dominated the Earth for over 200 million years and still inhabit all the continents, except Antarctica. But today, only a few orders of reptiles remain on this planet and they belong to the class Reptilia and are classified into four orders. They are Crocodilia, which consists of 23 species and include alligators, crocodiles, caimans and gavials; Sphenodontia, with two species of tuatara (a lizard-like reptile); ‘Squamata’, which includes ‘amphisbaenia’ (worm-like lizards), snakes and lizards with around 8,000 species and ‘Testudines’, that consists of 300 species of turtles and tortoises.

This situation was horrible and thankfully the man was stopped and the iguanas are safe. The story created outrage, but it also reminded me that iguanas are a unique and amazing species. While there are still iguanas throughout the Islands, they have become extinct on several islands and are on the endangered species list. At first glimpse, you might find these reptiles to be a bit ugly, even repulsive and scary; you wouldn’t want to face down one of these in a dark alley! But, a second look will probably change your mind. In fact, at second blush, it seems that many of these lizards are smiling. Take a look at this one from Sante Fe Island, for example: You Have to Love Him!Land Iguanas Land iguanas still can be found on Isabela, Santa Cruz, Fernandina, Seymour, South Plaza and Sante Fe Islands. The land iguana is a yellowish lizard and generally larger in size than the marine iguana. It has a very tough, leathery mouth; thus is it able to feed on the prickly pear cactus, its primary food source."

This small grayish-brown lizard has a covering of shiny blue scales on its belly, giving rise to the better-known name of \"\"blue belly lizard.\"\" They make interesting pets if you can catch one without it shedding its tail, but they’re also fun to observe as they clamber over trees, sand and rocks in the wild.

Western fence lizards do best with daytime temperatures between 75 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit, and nighttime temperatures around 62 degrees, though they can survive if it gets colder. In the wild, blue belly lizards will bask on a rock or other sunny spot to soak in the warmth; in captivity they need a safe heat source. A Variety of Foods Blue belly lizards eat bugs of all kinds and will catch them on their own in the wild. Small lizards eat insects such as ants and baby crickets. As the blue belly lizard gets bigger, he will add larger prey to the menu, including spiders, earthworms, mealworms, waxworms, larger crickets and grasshoppers.

"text": "\"Reptiles By Edwin Rosenblum Grades6–8, 9–12From Reptiles are vertebrate, or backboned, animals constituting the class Reptilia. They are characterized by a combination of features, none of which alone could separate all reptiles from all other animals. Among these features are (1) cold-bloodedness; (2) the presence of lungs; (3) direct development, without larval forms as in amphibians; (4) a dry skin with scales but not feathers (a characteristic of birds) or hair (a characteristic of mammals); (5) an amniote egg; (6) internal fertilization; (7) a three- or four-chambered heart; (8) two aortic arches (blood vessels) carrying blood from the heart to the body; mammals have only one aorta, the left; birds also have but one, the right; (9) a metanephric kidney; (10) twelve pairs of head (cranial) nerves; amphibians have ten; and (11) (skeletal features such as (a) limbs with usually five clawed fingers or toes, (b) at least two spinal bones (sacral vertebrae) associated with the pelvis; amphibians have but one, (c) a single ball-and-socket connection (condyle) at the head-neck joint instead of two, as in advanced amphibians and mammals, and (d) an incomplete or complete partition (the secondary palate) along the roof of the mouth, separating the food and air passageways so that breathing can continue while food is being chewed. These and other traditional defining characteristics of reptiles have been subjected to considerable modification in recent times. The extinct flying reptiles, called pterosaurs, are now thought to have been warm-blooded and covered with hair; and the dinosaurs are also now considered by many authorities to have been warm-blooded. The earliest known bird, Archaeopteryx, is now regarded by many to have been a small dinosaur, despite its covering of feathers; and the extinct ancestors of the mammals, the therapsids, or mammallike reptiles, are also believed to have been warm-blooded and haired. Proposals have been made to reclassify the pterosaurs, dinosaurs, and certain other groups out of the class Reptilia into one or more classes of their own, and these issues are now receiving a great deal of attention from paleontologists and zoologists. Cold-bloodedness Reptiles are cold-blooded. That is, they lack the ability to regulate their metabolic heat (heat derived from the oxidation, or \"\"burning,\"\" of food and from other processes) for the production of sustained body warmth and a constant body temperature. Cold-bloodedness, however, does not mean that a reptile is necessarily cold."

"text": "\"Travel Ireland Other - Ireland Why are there no snakes in Ireland? Outside of Dublin zoo and a handful of pet shops, why doesn't Ireland have any snakes?5 following 94 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Well I’m sure you know of the legend that St. Patrick drove all the snakes from Ireland. The story goes that “in the fifth century he stood on a hill using his staff to drive all snakes into the sea, banishing them for eternity” It is true there are no snakes in Ireland, except in zoos and as pets. There never were any snakes in Ireland so the story of St. Patrick is just that, a story. Ireland, New Zealand, Iceland, Greenland, and Antarctica, are the only countries that have no snakes, and the one thing they all have in common is that they are an island. The main reason there are no snakes in Ireland and the other places is they cannot get there. 100 million years ago snakes first evolved. They started out on the continent Gondwanaland (a super continent made up of modern-day Antarctica, South America, Africa, India, and Australia) Ireland was completely underwater at this time. When the world’s climate started to dry out, 65 million years ago, grass lands and other habitats opened out and snakes became very wide spread in the northern hemisphere. The snakes could not cross the water to Ireland or the other islands, even when the water levels fell and Ireland was joined by land bridges to Great Britain and Europe, any snake that migrated to Ireland would have been killed when the ice age hit."

This feature is responsible for the name \"\" thecodonts \"\" (\"\"socket teeth\"\"), which paleontologists used to apply to all or most archosaurs. Some archosaurs, such as birds, are secondarily toothless. Antorbital fenestrae (openings in the skull in front of the eyes but behind the nostrils), which reduced the weight of the skull, a useful feature since most early archosaurs had long, heavy skulls, rather like those of modern crocodilians.

Reptiles are air-breathing, cold-blooded vertebrate s that have skin covered in scales as opposed to hair or feathers. They are tetrapod s (having or having descended from vertebrates with four limbs) and amniote s, whose embryo s are surrounded by an amniotic membrane . Modern reptiles inhabit every continent with the exception of Antarctica, and are represented by four living orders: Crocodilia ( crocodile s, gharial s, caiman s and alligator s): 23 species Sphenodontia ( tuatara from New Zealand ): 2 species Squamata ( lizard s, snake s and amphisbaenids (\"\"worm-lizards\"\")): approximately 7,900 species Testudines ( turtle s and tortoise s): approximately 300 species The majority of reptile species are oviparous (egg-laying) although certain species of squamates are capable of giving live birth. This is achieved, either through ovoviviparity (egg retention), or viviparity (offspring born without use of calcified eggs). Many of the viviparous species feed their fetus es through various forms of placenta analogous to those of mammals with some providing initial care for their hatch lings. Extant reptiles range in size from the newly-discovered Jaragua Sphaero, at 1.6 cm (0.6 in), to the Saltwater Crocodile, at up to at least 7 m (23 feet). Classification History of classification From the classical standpoint, reptiles included all the amniote s except bird s and mammal s. Thus reptiles were defined as the set of animal s that includes crocodile s, alligator s, tuatara, lizard s, snake s, amphisbaenia ns and turtle s, grouped together as the class Reptilia (Latin repere, \"\"to creep\"\")."

The lizard is a reptile with scaly skin, and some species of lizard can shed their tails when the are in danger, but not all species of lizard are capable of doing this. There are around 5,000 different species of lizard ranging from small lizards that are just a few centimeters in size, to much larger and more predatory lizards that measure a few meters from the head of the lizard to the tip of their tail. Most species of lizard are either good climbers, or failing that good at sprinting which enables all the different species of lizard to escape danger in a flash. Some species of lizard are said to be so good at anchoring themselves into solid material and it has been known that criminals breaking into houses, are able to use the lizard almost like a ladder, and therefore are able to climb up the lizard into the house. Lizards are reptiles which means that lizards are cold blooded. Lizards tend to be more active during the night as lizards spend the day basking in the hot sun in order to warm themselves up. Lizards are therefore able to recharge their batteries during the day and can hunt with success at night. For most species of lizard, sight is crucial both for locating prey and for communication between other lizards. Due to their extremely tuned eyesight, many species of lizard have highly acute color vision."

Defining Ectothermic Animals The source of energy which animals use is the basis on which animals are divided into two groups, namely the cold-blooded and warm-blooded animals. Cold-blooded animals are also known as ectothermic or poikilothermic animals. Their bodies cannot regulate temperatures internally, so the temperature is not constant and varies according to their environment. So in hot environments, their blood can get much warmer than that of warm-blooded animals in the same area. To regulate their temperature, cold-blooded animals bask perpendicular to sun rays to get warm, and when they want to cool down they lie parallel to the sun, or keep their mouths open or seek shade.4. Notable Examples Cold-blooded animals can be either terrestrial or aquatic. All reptiles, including snakes, lizards, turtles, tortoises, alligators, and crocodiles, such insects as the busy dragonflies and bees, amphibians such as frogs, toads, and salamanders, as well as fish, including sharks, are all cold-blooded animals. Though dinosaurs were reptiles, they are believed to have characteristics of both cold and warm blooded animals, and belonged to a transitional group with a complex metabolism, similar to what is seen in modern birds.3."

There is some debate about when archosaurs first appeared: Those who classify the Permian reptiles Archosaurus rossicus and / or Protorosaurus speneri as true archosaurs maintain that archosaurs first appeared in the late Permian. Those who classify both Archosaurus rossicus and Protorosaurus speneri as archosauriformes (not true archosaurs but very closely related) maintain that archosaurs first evolved from Archosauriform ancestors during the Olenekian (early Triassic Period ). Contents [ show]Distinguishing characteristics The simplest and most widely-agreed synapomorphies of archosaurs are: Teeth set in sockets, which makes them less likely to be torn loose during feeding. This feature is responsible for the name \"\" thecodonts \"\" (\"\"socket teeth\"\"), which paleontologists used to apply to all or most archosaurs. Preorbital fenestrae (openings in the skull in front of the eyes but behind the nostrils), which reduced the weight of the skull, a useful feature since most early archosaurs had long, heavy skulls, rather like those of modern crocodilians. The preorbital fenestrae (sometimes called anteorbital fenestrae) are often larger than the orbits (eye sockets). Mandibular fenestrae (small openings in the jaw bones), which may have reduced the weith of the jaw slightly and may A fourth trochanter (ridge for attaching muscles) on the femur. This apparently insignificant detail may have made the evolution of dinosaurs possible (all early dinosaurs and many later ones were bipeds), and may also be connected with the the ability of the archosaurs or their immediate ancestors to survive the catastrophic Permian-Triassic extinction event ."

These interesting facts though will give you some insight about how these fascinating creatures live. They can be very different from one species to the next too. With that in mind it is important not to generalize when you are talking about the Lizard. It is possible for the Lizard to lose their tail when they feel that they are in danger. It can be a means of escaping from a predator. In time the tail will grow back again. The tail they leave behind will move and confuse the predator. What grows back will be slimmer and often a different color. There are some species of Lizards with very small legs or have no legs."

It is hard to make out a difference between Aboriginal and first nation as they are the same. Though indigenous people are seen in many parts of the world, these two terms — Aboriginal and first nation ‘“ refers to indigenous people of Canada. Of the two terms, Aboriginal is more commonly used than First Nations to describe all Indigenous peoples of Canada. Aboriginal people in Canada include First Nations, Metis and Inuit. On the other hand, First Nations refer to indigenous people in Canada other than Metis and Inuit. So it can be seen that Aboriginal is used in the larger sense and refers to all indigenous people whereas First Nations is not like that. Most of the time, First Nations only refers to Indian people. First Nations was a term that came into common usage in the 1980s. The term was coined to replace the term “Indian band” as some people found this term offensive."

Flag Why are American Indians red skinned? Answer by Clausenfan Confidence votes 17.8KThe native peoples of the Americas are racially descended from ancient Asiatic people of eastern Asia. They do not have \"\"red skin\"\", but rather yellowish skin and usually very black, straight hair and little or no body hair like most Asiatic peoples. It is always wrong to generalise and all native people are different, but when a native American baby is born in Peru, Canada, Wyoming, Florida or Argentina it generally has more yellowish skin than that of white people; exposure to the sun rapidly tans this skin a rich tan or copper colour. Lewis and Clark, when they reached the Shoshone country, were taken to be natives because of their deeply-tanned hands and faces and had to pull up the sleeves of their jackets to reveal the pale, untanned skin of their arms to prove they were really white people. The copper/tan colour has in the past been termed \"\"red\"\", which is clearly a false idea - but one which is today widespread among non-native people. This is typical of the many false terms (\"\"squaw\"\", \"\"chief\"\", \"\"brave\"\", \"\"wigwam\"\" and many more) that are used without any understanding of native culture by extremely ignorant white people.

Central here is the Royal Proclamation, 1763, which recognized Aboriginals as a distinct political unit within the colonial system, as well as legislation passed by Canadian authorities in the mid-1800s. The Royal Proclamation, 1763During the process of colonization, Europeans undertook several strategies in dealing with these populations. In some cases, this involved forced-relocation and even genocide. In other cases, Europeans implemented strategies of cohabitation, which were meant to achieve peaceful relations between settlers and indigenous populations. One of the most important of these cohabitation approaches can be found in the Royal Proclamation of 1763, which was issued by King George III of Britain. The Proclamation established a system of government for former French colonies in North America, which Britain had won following the Seven Years War."

DAVID BLOOM/THE CANADIAN PRESSBill Curry and Tu Thanh Ha Published January 9, 2013Updated March 26, 2017The ruling by the Federal Court declaring Métis and non-status Indians as \"\"Indians\"\" under the Constitution Act of 1867 carries the potential for dramatic change to the aboriginal policy landscape in Canada. Tuesday's judgment lifted the legal fog over whether Métis and non-status Indians fall under federal or provincial jurisdiction. It is similar to a 1939 Supreme Court ruling that declared Canada's Inuit – then called Eskimos – fell under the federal government's legal authority. What the Federal Court decision did not do is clearly state how this might ultimately affect aboriginal rights under section 35 of the 1982 Constitution Act or the federal Indian Act. What benefits does Ottawa provide to status Indians? Ottawa keeps a list of aboriginals who qualify for Indian status. There were 840,300 people in the federal Indian registry as of 2009. Registered Indians can apply for postsecondary tuition support, as well as on-reserve social programs that mirror provincial programs, such as income assistance and assisted living."

The Northeast region of North America is a large area with many variations of climate, landscape, and natural resources. These differences account for the wide variations of Indian cultures in the region. Wigwams and longhouses were the typical shelter of Indians living in this region. The Indians of this region first came in contact with Europeans around the year 1000 A. D. when the famous Viking explorer Leif Ericsson sailed from Greenland to Canada."

Pan-Indianism Pan-Indianism is a movement of Aboriginal resistance to domination and assimilation and is characterized primarily by political and religious expression and solidarity. Key historical figures include Pontiac and Handsome Lake. Leaders since colonial times have advocated that Aboriginal people free themselves, even if this means violence. The Peyote Cult, a reaction to Christian teachings and beliefs, originated in the southern plains area during the later 19th century and gradually symbolized the unity of indigenous people across North America. Red Power is pan-Indian sentiment committed to radical political action, as in the National Congress of American Indians (1944) and the American Indian Movement (1968). These rights-oriented groups believe that Aboriginal people must choose between assimilation and being Aboriginal people, and that Canadian and American government obligations to Aboriginal people are binding.

Lately Aboriginal People of Turtle Island often use the term Niiji to address each other and themselves equivalent to the meaning of the word Indian. The word Indian originates in one version from Spanish and in another version again from Spaniards calling Turtle Island Natives people from India, Indians. The term Niiji very clearly defines the person as an aboriginal from Turtle Island other than Inuit.

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search The Native American name controversy is an ongoing discussion about the changing terminology used by indigenous peoples of the Americas to describe themselves, as well as how they prefer to be referred to by others. Preferred terms vary primarily by region and age. As indigenous people and communities are diverse, there is no consensus on naming, aside from the fact that most people prefer to be referred to by their specific nation. When discussing broad groups of peoples, naming may be based on shared language, region, or historical relationship, such as \"\" Algonquin -speaking peoples\"\", \"\" Pueblo -dwelling peoples\"\", \"\" Plains Indians \"\" or \"\" LDN peoples\"\" ( Lakota, Dakota and Nakota peoples). Many English exonyms have been used to refer to the indigenous peoples of what is now known as the Americas, who were resident when European colonists arrived in the 15th and 16th centuries. Some of these names were based on French, Spanish, or other European language terminology used by earlier explorers and colonists; some resulted from the colonists' attempt to translate endonyms from the native language into their own; and some were pejorative terms arising out of prejudice and fear, during periods of conflict between the cultures involved. In the 20th and 21st centuries, indigenous peoples in the Americas have been more vocal about the ways they wish to be referred to, pressing for the elimination of terms widely considered to be obsolete, inaccurate, or racist. During the latter half of the 20th century and the rise of the Indian rights movement, the United States government responded by proposing the use of the term \"\"Native American\"\", to recognize the primacy of indigenous peoples' tenure in the nation. The term has met with only partial acceptance. Other naming conventions have been proposed and used, but none are accepted by all indigenous groups."

"text": "Prostate Specific Antigen Test What is the PSA Test? The PSA test was developed during the late 1970’s by research scientists at Roswell Park Memorial Hospital in Buffalo, New York. The PSA is a blood test that measures the amount of prostate specific antigen (PSA) present in the body. Produced almost exclusively by the prostate gland, PSA is an enzyme, typically present in only minute quantities, secreted into the bloodstream from blood vessels inside the prostate. PSA secretions originate from cells in the lining of the prostate gland. When prostate cancer is present, additional PSA is usually produced. This extra PSA can be detected and measured in the blood through a simple laboratory test, which can be ordered by any primary-care physician. Test results are usually available in 1-3 days or even longer depending on the assay used. Because cancerous cells readily leak PSA into the surrounding body tissue, an elevated PSA is a possible indicator of the presence of prostate cancer. However, other conditions can also cause an elevated PSA."

Methods Logistic regression was applied to examine the influence of ethnicity as well as demographics, lifestyle factors, comorbidities, family history of cancer, and previous screening history on self-reported screening participation collected in 1999–2002. Results The analysis included 140,398 participants who identified as white, African American, Native Hawaiian, Japanese American, US born-Latino, or Mexican born-Latino. The screening prevalences overall were mammography: 88% of women, PSA: 45% of men, and colonoscopy: 35% of men and women. All minority groups reported 10–40% lower screening utilization than whites, but Mexican-born Latinos and Native Hawaiian were lowest. Men were nearly twice as likely to have a colonoscopy (OR = 1.94, 95% CI = 1.89–1.99) as women. A personal screening history, presence of comorbidities, and family history of cancer predicted higher screening utilization across modalities, but to different degrees across ethnic groups. Conclusions This study confirms previously reported sex differences in colorectal cancer screening and ethnic disparities in screening participation. The findings suggest it may be useful to include personal screening history and family history of cancer into counseling patients about screening participation.

"text": "\"Abstract and Introduction Background: The worldwide incidence of prostate cancer is higher among American black men than any other male group. In the United States, lack of participation in screening for prostate cancer by black men is influenced by several cultural factors, including knowledge, health beliefs, barriers, and relationships with primary healthcare providers. Methods: We used the qualitative and paralleling descriptive quantitative findings of a mixed-method longitudinal study exploring prostate cancer screening behaviors among 277 black men. Results: Five themes were identified as critical elements affecting men's screening for prostate cancer: lack of knowledge, communication, social support, quality of care, and sexuality. These themes were associated with a sense of disconnectedness by black men from the healthcare system and contributed to nonparticipation in prostate cancer early detection activities. Conclusions: Lack of discussion about the decision to screen for prostate cancer and general lack of culturally appropriate communication with healthcare providers has engendered distrust, created fear, fostered disconnect, and increased the likelihood of nonparticipation in prostate cancer screening among black men. Prostate cancer is the leading cancer diagnosed among men in the United States. Black men in America continue to have the highest incidence rate of prostate cancer in the world -- 180.6 per 100,000 population. [ 1] Between 1996 and 2000 in the United States, the age-adjusted death rate of prostate cancer among black men (73.0 per 100,000 population) was more than double that of non-Hispanic white men (30.2 per 100,000 population). [ 2, 3] The causes of higher rates of prostate cancer among black men are largely unknown."

About one in seven men will be diagnosed with cancer during his lifetime. The American Cancer Society estimates there were 220,800 new cases of prostate cancer in the U. S. during 2015. And about 27,540 men died from prostate cancer in 2015. Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in men. It follows only lung cancer. Yet the survival rates for prostate cancer are typically good, assuming the cancer remains in the prostate. If the cancer spreads to other parts of the body such as the lymphatic system or other organs, the five-year survival rate is only about 28 percent. The issue for most men who’ve had prostate cancer is to prevent a progression and recurrence of the cancer. And prostate enlargement is linked specifically to prostate cancer, as well as recurrence."

What Defenders Need to Look For: A lab report may not reveal what type of test was done. For example, in the report below it is not clear what blood analysis tests were completed and what the meaning of \"\"chemical indications for the presence of blood\"\" is: Testimony at trial may be misleading. To understand the meaning of phrases such as \"\"chemical indications for the presence of blood,\"\" see the State Crime Lab's Body Fluid Report Format. Note that the effective date of this document is December 3, 2002 and the State Crime Lab may have an updated version. \"\" Chemical indications for the presence\"\" of a substance generally means that only a presumptive test gave a positive result. Counsel should be aware that a presumptive test alone establishes only the possibility that a particular substance is present. Counsel should be prepared to object to testimony or questions from the prosecutor that refer to a substance as a particular bodily fluid, such as blood, if only a presumptive test was performed. Defenders must obtain the underlying notes, data, photographs and reports of the analyst. Defenders must ensure that the law enforcement officer and/or analyst followed proper procedures."

"text": "How to handle a relapse after treatment for prostate cancer Marc B. Garnick, M. D., discusses what biochemical recurrence means and what your options are“Am I going to die?” This is the first question a patient usually asks me when a follow-up blood test reveals that his prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level has risen after he has already undergone treatment for prostate cancer (usually a radical prostatectomy or radiation therapy). The fear is understandable: When PSA levels rise to a certain threshold after prostate cancer treatment, the patient has suffered what is known technically as a biochemical recurrence, sometimes also referred to as a biochemical relapse or stage D1.5 disease. Whatever term is used, it means that prostate cancer remains within the prostate after radiation therapy, that it survived outside the excised area after radical prostatectomy, or that it has reappeared in metastatic form in other tissues and organs. In most cases the cancer remains at a microscopic level, and many years will pass before any physical evidence of it is detectable on a clinical exam or any abnormalities are seen on a bone scan or CT scan. That’s usually of small comfort to the patient whose PSA has risen. It’s emotionally traumatic to go through treatment for prostate cancer, thinking it is cured, and then learn that it might have come back. For many men, it’s as if they’re dealing with another diagnosis of cancer, except this time it’s much worse because there is less likelihood of getting cured. A man’s confidence and sense of safety may be shattered, especially because the popular misconception is that when prostate cancer recurs, it is deadly. Which brings me back to my patient’s question: “Am I going to die?”The simple answer is yes, eventually — we all do — but you may not die from prostate cancer."

Although rare, heterophilic antibodies may produce false elevations in PSA that could prompt unnecessary therapy in men previously treated for prostate cancer. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of small, spurious PSA elevations, and the role of heterophilic antibodies. METHODS: Phase I: all PSA tests drawn and measured between 27 October 2008 and 26 October 2010 at Vanderbilt University Medical Center were analyzed ( n =17 133). Patients who had been treated for prostate cancer with PSA values that changed from undetectable to detectable were evaluated. Phase II: patients with a detectable PSA ⩽ 0.5 ng ml −1 measured between 24 October 2010 and 19 January 2011 were studied prospectively ( n =1288). If any patient had a previously undetectable PSA value, their serum was tested for heterophilic antibody interference. RESULTS: Phase I: 11 men had a spuriously elevated PSA after curative treatment for prostate cancer (0.3%). Mean time to PSA elevation was 3.4±5.5 years, and mean elevation in PSA was 0.33±0.28 ng ml −1. Each patient's PSA was undetectable after being repeated, and no patient went on to unnecessary treatment."

An antigen is an antibody designed to protect against disease. And because we can test for a prostate specific antigen, the volume of that antigen can indicate the seriousness of any disease that is attacking the prostate. By itself, a PSA reading does not mean very much. The PSA is only a very rough indicator. It certainly does not predict prostate cancer, but it may give you an early indication. However, the PSA is very unreliable and essentially flawed as a test for prostate cancer because a raised PSA can mean many different things. The PSA score, however, is the very best indication of the general health of your prostate. It may be an enlarged prostate or an inflamed one or prostatitis that causes your PSA reading to rise."

"text": "\"Edward P. Deantoni, Ph DApr 1, 1997Volume: 11Issue: 4Oncology Journal, Genitourinary Cancers, Prostate Cancer ABSTRACT: An association between age and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) has been documented: As men age, their serum PSA value increases. Currently, a single demarcation between normal and elevated PSA values, 4.0 ng/m L, is used as an indication for biopsy among men of all ages. The use of age-specific reference ranges might address several shortcomings of the PSA test. First, age-specific reference ranges could improve the sensitivity of PSA by detecting curable, organ-confined tumors in younger men when the threshold of 4.0 ng/m L is lowered. Second, age-specific reference ranges could improve the specificity of the PSA test by raising the PSA threshold for normal among older men. This would modulate PSA interpretation by taking into account the increasing prevalence of both benign prostatic growth and incidental, non-life-threatening cancers among successively older cohorts of men. Furthermore, many unnecessary (false-positive) biopsies would be avoided. However, the association between PSA values and age is not entirely clear, and whether age-specific reference ranges represent the best interpretive index for PSA remains problematic. [ ONCOLOGY 11 (4):475-485, 1997]Introduction Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is the best \"\"tumor marker\"\" yet discovered. [ 1,2] This enzyme is produced by the columnar epithelial cells of the prostate and periurethral glands."

"text": "\"Home Guidelines Clinical Guidelines Early Detection of Prostate Cancer (2013; Reviewed and Validity Confirmed 2015)Early Detection of Prostate Cancer Unabridged Version of this Guideline [pdf]Published 2013; Reviewed and Validity Confirmed 2015The clinical guideline on Early Detection of Prostate Cancer discusses the detection of disease at an early, pre-symptomatic stage through the use of screening tools, such as PSA. Early detection allows for more conservative management, if needed, via means such as active surveillance and watchful waiting. Unabridged version of this Guideline [pdf]Panel Members H. Ballentine Carter, Peter C. Albertsen, Michael J. Barry, Ruth Etzioni, Stephen J. Freedland, Kirsten Lynn Greene, Lars Holmberg, Philip Kantoff, Badrinath R. Konety, Mohammad Hassan Murad, David F. Penson and Anthony L. Zietman Executive Summary Purpose This guideline addresses prostate cancer early detection for the purpose of reducing prostate cancer mortality with the intended user as the urologist. This document does not make a distinction between early detection and screening for prostate cancer. Early detection and screening both imply detection of disease at an early, pre-symptomatic stage when a man would have no reason to seek medical care –an intervention referred to as secondary prevention. This document does not address detection of prostate cancer in symptomatic men, where symptoms imply those that could be related to locally advanced or metastatic prostate cancer (e.g. new onset bone pain and/or neurological symptoms involving the lower extremities, etc.). Methodology The AUA commissioned an independent group to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of the published literature on prostate cancer detection and screening. The protocol of the systematic review was developed a priori by the expert panel. The search strategy was developed and executed by reference librarians and methodologists and spanned across multiple databases. This search covered articles in English published between 1995 and 2013."

"text": "\"Age Limit on Prostate Cancer Screening? Task Force Says Routine PSA Tests Not Needed for Men Age 75 and Older By Kelli Miller From the Web MD Archives Aug. 5, 2008 -- A U. S. government task force says there is no \"\"adequate proof\"\" that routinely screening men over age 75 for prostate cancer leads to fewer deaths. The U. S. Preventive Services Task Force now recommends against routine prostate -specific antigen (PSA) testing for men 75 or older who do not have symptoms, saying there's insufficient evidence that screening improves health outcomes. \"\" We carefully reviewed the available evidence to measure the benefits and harms of screening for prostate cancer and could not find adequate proof that early detection leads to fewer men dying of the disease,\"\" task force chair Ned Calonge, MD, MPH, chief medical officer for the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment in Denver, says in a news release. \"\" At this point, we recommend that men concerned about prostate cancer talk with their health care providers to make a decision based on their individual risk factors and personal preference. \"\" The new recommendations update the panel's 2002 ruling, which concluded that there was not enough evidence to recommend screening for all men.

"text": "\"Prostate cancer screening: Should you get a PSA test? Making the decision to have a PSA test depends on a variety of factors. Here are some tips that can help you make a good decision. By Mayo Clinic Staff Multimedia Prostate gland Cancer screening tests — including the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test to look for signs of prostate cancer — can be a good idea. Prostate cancer screening can help identify cancer early on, when treatment is most effective. And a normal PSA test, combined with a digital rectal exam, can help reassure you that it's unlikely you have prostate cancer. But getting a PSA test for prostate cancer may not be necessary for some men, especially men 70 and older. Professional organizations vary in their recommendations about who should — and who shouldn't — get a PSA screening test. While some have definitive guidelines, others leave the decision up to men and their doctors. Organizations that do recommend PSA screening generally encourage the test in men between the ages of 40 and 70, and in men with an increased risk of prostate cancer."

"text": "“POM Wonderful” is a brand of pomegranate juice. It is manufactured by a company owned by Linda and Stewart Resnick, California billionaires who pretty much single-handedly created a multi-million dollar market for pomegranate juice where none existed before. Or, as LA Times columnist Michael Hilzik wrote,It has long been clear that the most wonderful thing about Pom Wonderful pomegranate juice is the spectacular marketing skill that persuades consumers to fork over their hard-earned cash for a liquid that sells for five to six times the price of, oh, cranberry juice. He’s right about the expense: a daily 8 oz. dose of POM Wonderful juice costs about $780 annually according to a recent Federal Trade Commission case, which we’ll get to soon. The Resnicks parlayed their success selling pomegranate juice into two additional products, both dietary supplements, in the form of POMx pills and POMx liquid. The Resnicks and their companies have shelled out $35 million in sponsored research to determine what health benefits might arise from ingesting pomegranate juice or its components, research they have not been shy about using in touting their products. The couple apparently has a flair for taking the mundane and making it appear, well, wonderful to the consumer – they also own Fiji Water and the Franklin Mint, among other business interests. In 2010, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) filed a complaint against Resnicks, one of their business partners, and two of their companies (which I’ll refer to collectively as “POM”), alleging unfair and deceptive trade practices. POM, according to the FTC complaint, made false and misleading claims that its POM products treat, prevent, and reduce the risk of heart disease, prostate cancer and erectile dysfunction."

"text": "Prostate Cancer Prevention The Avodart®-Proscar® Debate Quick Menu: Elevated levels of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) contribute to benign prostate enlargement (Andriole 2004). Based on evidence that DHT is also involved in prostate cancer (NCI 2013c), two large studies were conducted in aging men to see if drugs that reduce DHT also lower prostate cancer ris k (Thompson 2003; Andriole 2010; FDA 2013). One study evaluated the drug Avodart ® (dutasteride) and the other Proscar ® (finasteride) (Thompson 2003; Andriole 2010). Both of these drugs inhibit the 5-alpha reductase enzyme, thus blocking the conversion of testosterone to much more powerful DHT (FDA 2013). Findings from the two studies showed both drugs reduce prostate cancer risk by about 23-25% (Thompson 2003; Andriole 2010). These drugs also substantially reduce symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (Andriole 2004; FDA 2013). Some doctors, however, were concerned that in men who did develop prostate cancer, more in the group taking either of these drugs (Avodart® or Proscar®) developed high-grade prostate cancer (Thompson 2003; Andriole 2010). This is a justified concern. High-grade prostate cancer requires aggressive therapeutic intervention and is more challenging to cure (Tewari 2007). This protocol will reveal overlooked findings showing that Avodart® or Proscar® do not increase high-grade prostate cancer risk and may reduce it."

"text": "How Accurate is the PSA Test The PSA test is considered to be an important parameter to check the possibilities of prostate cancer, however, its accuracy has always been questioned. This Buzzle article will throw light on some of its aspects. Tagged Under: PSA Test Advertisement Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) is a protein produced by the prostate gland which is present in a man's body. A healthy prostate gland is almost the size of a walnut and is located at the neck of the bladder. It surrounds the tube that helps the exit of sperms and urine, called urethra. However, due to various factors such as age, ethnicity, family history, etc., cancer may develop in the prostate gland and result in elevated PSA levels. The PSA test helps in detecting these levels, thereby contributing in identifying the possible chances of prostate cancer. It should be noted that prostate cancer is not the only reason why these levels may be elevated. This arises a conflict in the accuracy of this test and its contribution in detecting prostate cancer."

"text": "ARTICLEAUTHORSREFERENCESRESPONSESpicture_as_pdf Download Summary Objective: To describe values of serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in older men without diagnosed prostate cancer, categorised by age and country of birth, and to describe self-reported prostate cancer screening. Design, participants and setting: A cohort study (the Concord Health and Ageing in Men Project) involving a representative sample of 1434 eligible community-dwelling men with no diagnosis of prostate cancer who were aged 70 years and over and living in a defined geographic area in Sydney, with baseline data collected between 28 January 2005 and 4 June 2007. Main outcome measures: Serum PSA levels and self-reported prostate cancer screening. Results: 11% of men (155) had a PSA level of ≥ 6.5 ng/m L, increasing from 7.5% of men aged 70–74 years to 31.4% of men aged ≥ 90 years. PSA levels varied with ethnicity, with Australian-born men (695) having the highest levels (median, 2.3 ng/m L; 5th–95th percentile, 0.4–10.1 ng/m L), followed by men born in China ( n = 42; 2.1 ng/m L; 0.4–12.4 ng/m L), United Kingdom and Ireland ( n = 70; 1.9 ng/m L; 0.3–8.9 ng/m L), Greece ( n = 59; 1.5 ng/m L; 0.2–6.1 ng/m L), and Italy ( n = 293; 1.4 ng/m L; 0.3–7.2 ng/m L). A PSA test in the previous 2 years was reported by 48% of participants, and a digital rectal examination (DRE) in the previous 2 years by 37%. Conclusions: A significant number of men aged over 70 years reported recent prostate cancer tests. The PSA level ranges reported in this cohort will help with interpreting serum PSA level findings in men aged over 70 years. The benefits and risks of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing to screen unselected populations for prostate cancer remains controversial despite the recent publication of two large randomised controlled trials of PSA screening. 1, 2 These trials focused on men aged less than 75 years, as there is broad agreement that older men should not be screened for prostate cancer."

Have you ever had your PSA measured? Tweet I get a lot of calls from men wanting to “reduce” their PSA levels. These men have usually just received their test results that show an above-average PSA, and their doctor has recommended a biopsy of the prostate. Or they have had a negative biopsy in the past, but their PSA is still higher than average and they want to avoid another biopsy. Most of the time, though, it’s because they have just had a blood test and their doctor has told them that their PSA is high. Frightening Information PSA testing is a scary process for men, but it need not be; a high PSA is not always an indicator of prostate cancer. My own tests show a constant PSA of 3.7 down from a score of 5 from a test 10 years ago. Most doctors would try to biopsy me every six months, which is not going to happen! Those who have read my emails in the past know that I am “genetically” predisposed to a high PSA that has nothing to do with my prostate cancer risk."

"text": "\"Edward P. Deantoni, Ph DApr 1, 1997Volume: 11Issue: 4Oncology Journal, Genitourinary Cancers, Prostate Cancer How Best to Use the PSA-Age Relationship TABLE 2Mean PSA Values by Age As discussed elsewhere, [37] age-specific reference ranges are a result of the increasing mean PSA values and the increasing PSA variance (standard deviation) in successively older cohorts of men. Mean PSA values are related to the population studied and may also be related to the time during which a particular study was conducted ( Table 2 ). The variability in PSA values as men age suggests that caution should be exercised when considering the clinical implications of age-specific reference ranges. [ 56] The upper limits are established by two methods: (1) extending mean PSA levels upward two standard deviations to establish a 95% confidence limit, or (2) extending the median PSA value to the 95th percentile. However, the distribution of PSA values in any age group is not a normal distribution: absolute 0.0 ng/m L is always the lowest value. TABLE 3Median PSA Values and Interquartile Ranks The degree of variation in PSA values increases with each older age cohort. That is, men in their 70s exhibit greater variability in PSA values than men in their 60s, who, in turn, exhibit greater variability than men in their 50s, with men in their 40s demonstrating the least variability. In fact, Bangma and associates [43] have shown that the coefficient of correlation weakens as older ages are considered: r = .32 for all men but only .16 for men 50 years or more. Table 3 presents the interquartile ranges for 10-year age cohorts, and the increasing variance on either side of the median--especially between the 50th and 75th percentile--is apparent. FIGURE 1Variability in PSA With Age If the variance in PSA values is related to the \"\"normal\"\" pattern of prostatic function, it would stand to reason that men in their 40s, when benign prostatic enlargement and prostate cancer are uncommon, would show the least variance in PSA values."

"text": "\"How to Make Homemade Peanut Butter Click here for a PDF Print Version Here's how to make your own natural homemade peanut butter from fresh or roasted peanuts. There are many reasons to do so: taste, nutrition and safety. Almost all of the commercial peanut butters contain added sugar, salt, oils, and often preservatives. Home-made peanut butter is not only healthier, is also tastes much better! You can make it smooth, chunky or in between! You can use peanuts, cashews, pecans, hazelnuts, almonds, pistachios, or other nuts, including a mixture. You won't need to worry about your homemade peanut butter being contaminated with Salmonella nor cancer-causing alfatoxins ( see this page for more information about aflatoxins ). If you need a reminder that you shouldn't trust your health to corporate processed foods, just read about the many recalls of contaminated peanut butter:2012, October: Sunland, Also see this page for the US Government page about the peanut butter recall (A total of 35 persons infected with the outbreak strain of Salmonella Bredeney have been reported from 19 states. Eight ill persons have been hospitalized, and no deaths have been reported. 63% percent of ill persons are children under the age of 10 years. )"

Low-Fat High-Volume Foods List Health Benefits of Sweet Potato French Fries Peanuts are a healthy snack, and the boiled varieties are far leaner than their roasted counterparts. All peanuts provide healthy fats as well as fiber, both of which satiate you to prevent hunger pangs that could lead to overeating. However, salted peanuts are high in sodium -- a single ounce provides more than 200 milligrams of the mineral, almost 10 percent of the recommended daily maximum intake. Too much salt can lead to high blood pressure and bloating, so look for unsalted peanuts or try boiling your own without adding salt. Fat and Calories Shelled, boiled peanuts have about 90 calories and 6 grams of fat per 1-ounce serving -- that's significantly less than dry-roasted peanuts, which contain 170 calories and 14 grams of fat per ounce. However, it's still important to watch portion sizes; mindlessly munching half a cup of boiled peanuts, which is easy to do, sets you back nearly 300 calories and 20 fat grams."

"text": "This information describes a low-iodine diet. A low-iodine diet contains less than 50 micrograms (mcg) of iodine per day. Iodine is a mineral. It plays an important role in several processes that take place in your body. One role is the production of a hormone called thyroxine in the thyroid gland. Iodine is found naturally in certain foods, but most of it comes from iodized salt, dairy products, and breads. Adults need 150 mcg of iodine a day. You will need to follow a low-iodine diet to increase the effectiveness of your upcoming radioactive iodine therapy. If you have iodine in your diet, it can prevent your thyroid from taking up the radioactive iodine. Your doctor may put you on a low-iodine diet 1 or 2 weeks before you get your dose of radioactive iodine."

In addition to being a good source of fiber and fats, nuts can also be a good source of protein. The current Daily Value (%DV) for protein is 50 grams per day. One ounce (1oz) of nuts or seeds is typically equivalent to a handful, or 2-3 tablespoons. Most nuts provide between 8-18% DV of protein per 1oz handful. High protein nuts and seeds include hemp seeds, pumpkin seeds, peanuts, almonds, pistachios, sunflower seeds, flax seeds, sesame seeds, chia seeds, cashews, and more.

Health Facts on Dry-Roasted Peanuts Nutrients & Benefits of Chick Peas and Garbanzo Beans Nutrients for a Handful of Unsalted Roasted Peanuts Nutrient-dense peanuts are a healthful snack option that can help stave off between-meal hunger pangs. Peanuts provide essential nutrients that your cells need to function well -- and studies indicate that eating nuts regularly can result in significant reductions in the risk of heart disease, according to the Linus Pauling Institute. Keep in mind, however, that peanuts are high in calories -- and some varieties contain sodium and saturated fat -- so eating too many may negatively affect your health. The Benefits Peanuts are packed with vitamin E and manganese, two antioxidants that your body uses to prevent cellular damage. Vitamin E also promotes communication between your cells and tissues, while manganese supports your metabolism. Each 1-ounce serving of peanuts provides 2 milligrams of vitamin E and 523 micrograms of manganese. This makes up 13 percent of your daily vitamin E requirement, as well as 29 and 23 percent of the daily manganese needs for women and men, respectively. Calorie Spike Despite their nutritional value, peanuts are high in calories. A 1-ounce serving contains 170 calories, which is 9 percent of your daily calorie allowance if you follow a 2,000-calorie diet."

These sunflower seeds are premium in size and taste. They're an excellent source of protein, fiber and minerals. We roast our own nuts and seeds right in-house before they ship so you can taste the freshness.4 Surprising Health Benefits of Sunflower Seeds1) Lower Blood Pressure: Snacking on protein-rich, unsalted sunflower seeds may help lower your blood pressure. Recent research shows that a diet with ample amounts of vegetable protein, such as the protein found in sunflower seeds, may help keep blood pressure down. A diet high in animal protein offered no such benefit in the study. Stock up on sunflower seeds, cashews, and kidney beans to get your fill of blood pressure-lowering veggie protein.2) Antioxidants: Sunflower seeds are loaded with protective antioxidants that can defend your cells against free radicals."

"text": "\"What Are the Benefits of Eating Boiled Peanuts?by JILL CORLEONE, RDN, LD Oct. 03, 2017Boiled peanuts are a snack most commonly consumed in South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi, Alabama and northern Florida. Boiled peanuts are made from green or raw peanuts that have been boiled in salty water, creating a legume flavor. Compared to raw or dry-roasted peanuts, boiled peanuts are lower in calories and fat and also have a higher concentration of nutrients that protect your cells from oxidation, making them a healthy addition to your diet. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Low-calorie Nut Although the peanut is a legume, it is often categorized with nuts because it has a similar nutrient composition. But compared to other nuts, the boiled peanut is significantly lower in calories. A 1 oz. serving of boiled and shelled peanuts contains 90 calories, versus 166 calories in the same serving of dry-roasted shelled peanuts and 170 calories in dry-roasted almonds. Substituting boiled peanuts for your usual dry-roasted peanuts can save you a significant number of calories and aid in weight control. Good Source of Flavonoids and Polyphenols In addition to being lower in calories than the dry-roasted peanut, boiled peanuts are also significantly higher in flavonoids and polyphenols, according to a 2007 study published in the \"\"Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry.\"\" In fact, boiled peanuts contained higher amounts of flavonoids and polyphenols than even raw peanuts."

Almonds are raw, they grow on trees, they do not need to be refrigerated. Vegetable oil is kept in the pantry not the fridge, do not need to refrigerate. And water, well you can work that out. Most likely it will set hard in the fridge.

"text": "\"Basic Foods in Southeast Asia A great way to explore the regional cuisines of Southeast Asia starts with the basics — the most common foods in each culture. Pinterest Facebook Twitter Email By: Corinne Trang Banh mi: A take on the French casse-croûte (meaning \"\"break crust,\"\" or sandwich), this Southeast Asian lunch favorite is made with a small baguette, split open lengthwise and filled with pickled carrots and daikon, fresh lettuce, cilantro, chili sauce and Vietnamese bologna, pâté and/or grilled lemongrass-flavored sliced pork. Basic Marinade: The delicious, authentic combination of equal parts palm sugar and fish sauce with grated garlic and lemongrass is used as a marinade for all sorts of proteins. Pork chops or chicken thighs, for example, are marinated for about 20 minutes, and then grilled and served with lime or lemon wedges on the side. Cabbage Salad: Popularly referred to as \"\"Asian coleslaw,\"\" this refreshing shredded green cabbage salad is seasoned with fish sauce, sugar and freshly squeezed lime juice, and garnished with crushed peanuts and cilantro, mint or Thai basil leaves. Add leftover shredded or sliced roast chicken or pork, or steamed shrimp for a more filing version of the recipe. Coconut Tapioca Soup: This sweet coconut soup with tapioca pearls is often consumed as a snack or at the end of a wedding or birthday dinner. Served hot, at room temperature, or chilled, it is delicious topped with yellow corn kernels, or diced banana, taro root or sweet potato, and garnished with a light sprinkling of toasted sesame seeds. Curries: Coconut milk-based for the most part, curries play an important role in Southeast Asian cuisines. Ranging from mild to intensely hot and spicy, they often start with melting coconut butter and stir-frying a spice paste—commonly lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, garlic, turmeric and galangal with dry spices including coriander, cumin and fenugreek — followed by meat or vegetables."

Thats not a proper answer Follow 11 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: My rats love monkey nuts in the shells, sometimes I hide walnuts, hazlenuts, almonds etc in the cage and let them work it out for themselves. It's amazing to watch them crack the shells open to get at the nuts, and it keeps them busy for ages! My rats also enoy a bone ( not chicken bones ) and they love raw vegetables and most fruits. Best treat ever is a bit of roast potato! A balanced diet is as important for pets as it is for us, and where fresh and varied food will help to prevent boredom and gives them a nice \"\"treat\"\" it shouldn't take the place of thier usual brand of rat feed."

"text": "\"f Share Tweet No idea how to make a wording for your Dedication plaques? Giving a unique and custom design plaque to someone who serves in the military or government is a great one but coming up with a dedication wording is another thing. When you happen to think ways on how to show gratitude or appreciation to military personnel or to those agencies, units, departments, or organizations who have done exceptional service, a dedication plaque always stands out to be given as gifts or awards. A meaningful dedication wording adds to the value and uniqueness of the plaque. To come up with a simple yet remarkable wording is not easy as it may seem. Your message needs to be sincere and truly made for the one you want to honor with the plaque and it doesn’t sound like you’re only doing it for the sake of giving a gift. The first thing you should consider is that the wording should be coming from your heart. However, there are no concrete guidelines on how to write a dedication text on a military dedication plaque, but as we have been writing and making military dedication and going away plaques for over 20 years, let us give you advice on what and how to write a dedication for a plaque!Here are the basic elements of a dedication plaque or PCS plaque and a helpful guideline to make the wording and design of your Dedication plaque or PCS plaque:1) Name Writing the name or call sign (if applicable) or rank of the person receiving the dedication plaque is perfect. You make the plaque more personalized and unique that will make the receiver love to hang or display it in his or her room or office. It makes the person feels proud to have it."

Arlington National Cemetery is a United States national cemetery located in Arlington County, Virginia, in the United States. It is managed by the United States Army, rather than the United States Department of Veterans Affairs. The first major memorial in the cemetery was completed in 1866. Entry gates in the cemetery were later dedicated to Union Army generals. The Spanish–American War and World War I led to the construction of several more major memorials. The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier was constructed in 1921, although the large sarcophagus above the burial vault was not dedicated until 1932. Almost a third of the cemetery's major memorials have been constructed since 1983. Owing to space constraints, Arlington National Cemetery does not permit the construction of large memorials or monuments without an act of Congress. The cemetery does, however, encourage the donation of trees (\"\"living memorials\"\") and permits small memorial plaques to be placed before these plantings."

"text": "Book Review: Genbaku de shinda Beihei Hishi (Secret History of the American Soldiers Killed by the Atomic Bomb) by Shigeaki Mori Yuka Ibuki It is little known that twelve American prisoners of war lost their lives by the Atomic Bomb dropped on Hiroshima. A Japanese victim of the bomb ( hibakusha) has recently written a book, which is the result of his years of research and communication with those related to the issue. The book has just been published by Kojin-sha Pub. Co. Tokyo on August 11, 08, for 2,000yen a copy. Let me introduce the summary of the book. The author, Mr. Shigeaki Mori, was eight years old when the Atomic bomb was dropped. He was on a small bridge in front of the Mt. Asahi Shinto Shrine in Koi-town, where his home was. It was 2.5km from the epicenter; being a child, he was blown off into the shallow river water by the blast create by the explosion. During those days schools had no summer vacation, so he was on his way to his class. Some medical doctors arrived at Koi Primary School, so the school was full of hibakushas, and during that night, it was a total confusion with screaming and crying of the wounded."

"text": "\"The Rush–Bagot Treaty or Rush–Bagot Disarmament, was a treaty between the United States and the United Kingdom limiting naval armaments on the Great Lakes and Lake Champlain, following the War of 1812. It was ratified by the United States Senate on April 16, 1818, [1] and was confirmed by Canada, following Confederation, in 1867. The treaty provided for a large demilitarization of lakes along the international boundary, where many British naval arrangements and forts remained. The treaty stipulated that the United States and British North America could each maintain one military vessel (no more than 100 tons burden) as well as one cannon (no more than eighteen pounds) on Lake Ontario and Lake Champlain. The remaining Great Lakes permitted the United States and British North America to keep two military vessels \"\"of like burden\"\" on the waters armed with \"\"like force\"\". The treaty, and the separate Treaty of 1818, laid the basis for a demilitarized boundary between the U. S. and British North America. [ 2]History Plaque to Richard Rush, U. S. diplomat, at Old Fort Niagara Plaque to Charles Bagot, British diplomat, at Old Fort Niagara The origins of the Rush–Bagot Treaty can be traced to a correspondence of letters between Acting United States Secretary of State Richard Rush and the British Minister to Washington Sir Charles Bagot, which were exchanged and signed on April 27 and 28, 1817. After the terms of the notes were agreed upon by Rush and Bagot, the Rush–Bagot Agreement was unofficially recognized by both countries. On April 6, 1818, it was submitted to the United States Senate and formally ratified on April 16, 1818. The treaty eventually led to the Treaty of Washington of 1871, which completed disarmament."

As such, the meaning of the expression varies widely both between and within societies, and depends significantly on context. For many other individuals, communities and countries, \"\"black\"\" is also perceived as a derogatory, outdated, reductive or otherwise unrepresentative label, and as a result is neither used nor defined. [ 1]Different societies apply differing criteria regarding who is classified as \"\"black\"\", and these social constructs have also changed over time. In a number of countries, societal variables affect classification as much as skin color, and the social criteria for \"\"blackness\"\" vary. For example, in North America the term black people is not necessarily an indicator of skin color or ethnic origin, but is instead a socially based racial classification related to being African-American, with a family history typically associated with institutionalized slavery. In the United Kingdom, \"\"black\"\" was historically equivalent with \"\" person of color \"\", a general term for non-European peoples."

The black represents the Aboriginal people, the red the earth and their spiritual relationship to the land, and the yellow the sun, the giver of life. In the late 1960s, Aborigines stepped up their campaign for indigenous land rights through protest marches, demonstrations, banners and posters. The protests increased in the early 1970s and Harold Thomas noticed they were often outnumbered by non-Aborigines with their own banners and placards. He decided they needed to be more visible and the idea of the flag was born. The Aboriginal flag was first raised in Victoria Square in Adelaide on National Aboriginal Day in 1971, but was adopted nationally by Aborigines and Torres Strait Islanders in 1972 after it was flown above the Aboriginal \"\"Tent Embassy\"\" outside of the old Parliament House in Canberra. Mr Thomas has often been asked to design a new Australian flag, but he says the design of the Aboriginal flag \"\"sprung from passionate times\"\" and that his inspiration could not necessarily \"\"be repeated\"\" for a new Australian flag. Mr Thomas says he would prefer to see something different for a new Australian flag. Mr Thomas is also uneasy about suggestions that the Aboriginal Flag could replace the Union Jack in the current Australian flag to create a new national flag."

There are Anishinaabek people living from The Canadian Sub-arctic across Turtle Island into Mexico. Many Native nations say that they are Anishinabek such as the Ojibway also called Chippewa, the Odawa, the Potawatomie, The Algonquins in Ontario's North-East and others. There is many nations similar to the Anishinaabek such as the Algonquin related people in the East Coast, the Arapaho nation and the Tsitsistas nation, also known as Cheyenne in the Prairies, and the Yurok nation on the West Coast. The Anishinaabek language is a widely accepted aboriginal language in Turtle Island. The word Niiji is an Anishinaabek word originally used by the Ojibway and Cree to mean friend. Lately Aboriginal People of Turtle Island often use the term Niiji to address each other and themselves equivalent to the meaning of the word Indian. The word Indian originates in one version from Spanish and in another version again from Spaniards calling Turtle Island Natives people from India, Indians. The term Niiji very clearly defines the person as an aboriginal from Turtle Island other than Inuit. When used today, the term Indian could refer to a person from India or to a person of any aboriginal nationality on any of the continents with populations that lead lifestyles similar to those of the aboriginal people on Turtle Island."

It bears the Royal Crest in gold ('on a St Edward's Crown a Lion statant guardant also crowned') beneath which is a gold scroll with the words 'COMMONWEALTH of AUSTRALIA' in dark blue letters.

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Institutional racism (also known as institutionalized racism) is a form of racism expressed in the practice of social and political institutions. Institutional racism is also racism by individuals or informal social groups, [1] governed by behavioral norms that support racist thinking and foment active racism. It is reflected in disparities regarding wealth, income, criminal justice, employment, housing, health care, political power and education, among other things. Whether implicitly or explicitly expressed, institutional racism occurs when a certain group is targeted and discriminated against based upon race. Institutional racism is mostly implicit in our ideas and attitudes, so it is often unnoticed by the individual expressing it (see implicit bias ). The term \"\"institutional racism\"\" was coined and first used in 1967 by Stokely Carmichael (later known as Kwame Ture) and Charles V. Hamilton in Black Power: The Politics of Liberation. [ 2] Carmichael and Hamilton wrote that while individual racism is often identifiable because of its overt nature, institutional racism is less perceptible because of its \"\"less overt, far more subtle\"\" nature. Institutional racism \"\"originates in the operation of established and respected forces in the society, and thus receives far less public condemnation than [individual racism]\"\". They gave examples:\"\"When white terrorists bomb a black church and kill five black children, that is an act of individual racism, widely deplored by most segments of the society. But when in that same city – Birmingham, Alabama – five hundred black babies die each year because of the lack of power, food, shelter and medical facilities, and thousands more are destroyed and maimed physically, emotionally and intellectually because of conditions of poverty and discrimination in the black community, that is a function of institutional racism."

But forming the kinds of agricultural societies typical of English settlers just wasn't the right strategy to endure Australia's harsh conditions. Even with imported English technology, agriculture was a precarious business in Australia. \"\" Diversification was the key to surviving in such a diverse landscape,\"\" says Lyndon Ormond-Parker, a research fellow from the indigenous studies unit at the University of Melbourne. \"\" Certainly, when it came to social complexity, Australia was just as diverse as Europe.

Windradyne's date of birth is unknown, but on his death in 1829 his obituary in The Sydney Gazette and New South Wales Advertiser —thought to be by his settler friend George Suttor from 'Brucedale Station' north of Bathurst —stated \"\"His age did not, I think, exceed 30 years\"\", [3] thus putting his year of birth at approximately 1800. Coe's biography of Windradyne from 1989 states that he was handsome and well built, with broad shoulders and muscular limbs. He had dark brown skin, thick black curly hair, and a long beard. He typically wore a headband, and had his beard plaited into three sections. [ 4] However, Coe's description does not fully correlate with a drawing of a Wiradjuri warrior that is thought to depict Windradyne. When Windradyne visited Parramatta to meet with Governor Thomas Brisbane in December 1824, the Sydney Gazette (using the British appellation for him of Saturday) wrote that:“ He is one of the finest looking natives we have seen in this part of the country. He is not particularly tall, but is much stouter and more proportionably [sic] limbed than the majority of his countrymen; which, combined with a noble looking countenance, and piercing eye, are calculated to impress the beholder with other than disagreeable feelings towards a character who has been so much dreaded by the Bathurst settler."

Recent dating of the earliest known archaeological sites on the Australian continent - using thermo-luminescence and other modern dating techniques - have pushed back the date for Aboriginal presence in Australia to at least 40,000 years. Some of the evidence points to dates over 60,000 years old. The hallmark of Aboriginal culture is 'oneness with nature'. In traditional Aboriginal belief systems, nature and landscape are comparable in importance to the bible in Christian culture. Prominent rocks, canyons, rivers, waterfalls, islands, beaches and other natural features - as well as sun, moon, visible stars and animals - have their own stories of creation and inter-connectedness. To the traditional Aborigine they are all sacred: environment is the essence of Australian Aboriginal godliness. Out of this deep reverence for nature Aborigines learned to live in remarkable harmony with the land and its animals. It seems there's a lot our modern world can learn from these people.

Government Designation of “Indian” Post-Columbus Day Special: Black Indians United Legal Defense and Education Fund, Inc. Enid, Oklahoma Wednesday, October 10, 2012Christopher Columbus never set one foot on the soil of the U. S. mainland during his maiden voyage and initial foray into the “New World.“ Yet, the legacy of Columbus and his foreign misadventure lives in infamy among the Ethnic (Black) Native Peoples of the Americas. His utterance of the word “Indian” unleashed a torrent of controversy and centuries of continuing devastation upon ubiquitous Black Aboriginal and Indigenous inhabitants of mainland America (North America, Mexico, Central and South America) in addition to the Caribbean, Melanesia, Polynesia, Tasmania, Solomon Islands, Papua New Guinea and Australia based upon policies centered around restorative programs intended to benefit destroyed Aboriginals, Indigenous Peoples and descendants. Adoption of disastrous policies for survivors with discriminatory laws and rules of access to benefits, protections and promises arising from various “Indian Treaties” amid a class struggle to define Columbus’ “Indian” inhabitants, subverted the original intent of documents drafted to legitimize previous Hostile Takeovers, Illegal Occupation, Grand Theft, Seizure of Mines, International Trade Infrastructures and the Natural Resources of Black Aboriginal and Indigenous Peoples. The rightful inheritance of Black Aboriginal and Indigenous Peoples was misappropriated to create a tangled mess in gentrified takeovers by unintended beneficiaries, and/or equally yoked (non-Black) Aboriginals guided by “Federal Trustees. Yet, the main feature overall has been perpetual enslavement, uncompensated lifetime use and callous disregard of the descendants of Ethnic Aboriginal Peoples of the “Kingdoms of Africa” wherever they existed (as pronounced by the Bishop of Rome and Catholic Majesties) in the world, including the Americas. It seems the overall plan of the Bishop of Rome, Columbus‘ Catholic Majesties of Spain and Portugal, France, even England through Foreign Representatives (from the outset, i.e. Lords Proprietors) was to reduce the position of Black Aboriginal Rulers (original inhabitants of the soil) to perpetually enslaved peasants, while beginning the process of converting the “idea” of Caucasian claim and ownership to Aboriginal Lands in the “New World’ realm by conversion of subject lands claimed through Royal Proclamations into Treaty (Contracts) demonstrating the purchase or exchange of goods, services (or other domains) for the purchase of “Real Estate,” meaning the actual soil of Aboriginal Lands. What comes to mind (in untangling the miasma of mis-dealings) are the Carolinas and Louisiana, which the United States claims to have “purchased,” without benefiting the Black Indians of the Treaty-making Nations. Enslavement and poor treatment of the Low Country Aboriginals and Indigenous Peoples was Atakullakulla’s main complaint in the Carolinas. Plus, enslavement made Black Aboriginals both “Indians” and “Freedmen”."

"text": "\"Acai Berries Acai Berries Acai berries are the quintessential antioxidant superfood. A deep, purplish-red berry about the size of a large blueberry, this energy-infused fruit comes from sixty-foot-tall palm tree in the Amazonian rainforest. These colorful berries have been used by Brazilian traditional societies for everything from digestive upset to skin problems for years and years. Not only has this berry been marketed as one of the healthiest foods in the world, scientific studies are beginning to back up these claims. Chocked full of antioxidants, açaí berries also contain an astounding concentration of health-boosting amino acids and essential fatty acids. A ground-breaking study from the University of Florida found that the berry showed the ability to literally destroy human cancer cells. The following article will look into the composition of the berry, as well as the reported scientific health benefits associated with acai. The Composition of an Acai Berry Acai berries are composed of pigment-rich anthocyanins and antioxidants. Containing more than ten times the concentrations of antioxidants as red wine, acai also contain phytosterols, a chemical component known to promote both cardiovascular and digestive health. Acai is also high in monounsaturated oleic acid, palmitic acid, linoleic acid, and beta-sitosterol."

"text": "\"Raw cacao vs cocoa April 24, 2013After hearing so much about the benefits of raw cacao powder I decided to try some a few days ago. I forked out the $$ for some organic raw cacao powder and made myself a hot chocolate with it, with a little cinnamon. From what I’d heard it was going to be very bitter and an acquired taste, so I braced myself for the first sip… and found it delicious! In fact, I thought it tasted exactly like I’d made a hot chocolate with cocoa powder (i.e. not the drinking chocolate you buy which has added sugars etc.). So I began to wonder, just how different is raw cacao powder from unsweetened cocoa powder, given that they are both derived from the same fruit? I did a bit of searching and here’s what I found (if you don’t want to read the whole article, skip to my summary section at the end for the key differences): Benefits of raw cacao powder: Cacao and cocoa powders are very complex, containing in excess of 300 chemically distinct compounds, making them the most complex of all foods. Rich in antioxidants: Raw cacao powder is extremely rich in beneficial plant polyphenols. The most beneficial of these are flavanoids, which are antioxidants. In fact, cacao powder contains far more antioxidants per 100 g than acai berries, goji berries and blueberries. Antioxidants comprise a whopping 10% of the weight of cacao powder."

Save This year’s NATJA conference beckoned me to UNC Tar Heel territory – Chapel Hill, North Carolina where a fair amount of exploration into the beer, spirits, and culinary landscape of the area took place, which was then followed by a whirlwind excursion to North Carolina’s Crystal Coast where I indulged in as much boat-to-table seafood as one can gracefully do in two days. ( More on that later. ) But you know the drill – now that you’re home – it’s time for a ‘lil bit of cleansing, purifying and detoxing. And, Acai smoothies, or bowls, are the perfect vehicle for a healthy jump start, especially if you’re making them at home. Yes, you can buy the very same Sambazon acai that most acai bowl places use in their bowls. Sure its great going to Banzai Bowl or some other acai bowl place and having them make it for you, but… I generally avoid them because I don’t know how much sweetener is being added and, even though they look so appealing, that pretty purple afternoon delight has a super-size-me amount of calories and carbs. Save Without getting into a discussion about net carbs, simple vs. complex carbohydrates, and how your body metabolizes each, let’s segue to this Sambazon organic açai smoothie made with less than 3.5 ounces (100 grams) of low carb fruit or avocado blended with a cup of greens (kale, chard or spinach) and topped with vegan raw Navitas Organics goji berries and Go Raw sprouted watermelon seeds for that necessary satisfying crunch and more superfood nutrition.

One food can’t do it all. If you’ve noticed, I try not to beat anyone over the head with nutrition facts but rather emphasize a diet of a wide variety of mostly plant-based whole foods. Eating seasonally, locally and organically helps too, but first things first. Many years ago I started hearing the praises of acai (prononced ah-sigh-EE), a berry native to the Amazon (the rainforest, not the online shopping site). Acai’s claims to fame are its insane antioxidant levels (more than blueberries! ), healthful fats and a good smattering of iron, calcium and beta-carotene. It also happens to be very low in carbs and sugar. What I love is acai’s deep berry, almost chocolatey flavor."

"text": "What is Acai? - pronounced Ah-Sigh-EEThe Açai berry is the fruit of a type of Palm Tree (Euterpe Oleracea-Cabbage Palm) native to the area and cultivated in specific regions in the Brazilian Amazon Rainforest. The small dark berries that the tree produces have been used by the native inhabitants of this particular area of Brazil for thousands of years. The Açai berry, with its high source of energy, is not only beneficial for health and medicinal purposes, but is also said to have sustained the natives during the yearly flooding of the 3,000+ mile Mighty Amazon River that rises some thirty meters each year. The Açai berry, and its various health benefits, are commonly used throughout Brazil as an energizing beverage and breakfast food and have remained a secret to the rest of the world until just the last few years. The advent of modern Agro-technology such as systematic cultivation and harvest and the ability to flash-freeze the açai pulp, the nutritional benefits of the açai berry are now available world-wide. What is an Antioxidant Superfood? Superfoods are defined as nutrient-rich foods considered especially beneficial for health and well-being. The Açaí Berry is one of the most well-known of the super food varieties. There is a lot of variety in what makes a particular food “Super,” but most are recognized to contain high levels of antioxidant polyphenols, phytochemicals, essential amino acids, omega 3s, monounsaturated fatty acids, vitamins, trace minerals, dietary fiber — often all of the above!To preserve Superfoods' nutritional integrity, they must be minimally-processed, using traditional methods or cutting-edge, low-temperature technologies."

"text": "Facts And Myths About Acai Berryby Shabir Daya Increasingly, more and more people are starting to experience the health benefits of superfoods such as Goji berries, Noni fruit and Acai berries. A superfood can be defined as a food that offers superior nutritional value for the amount of calories it contains. Acai berries are considered one of the best due to their incredible antioxidant properties, and are said to have numerous other health benefits. Unfortunately, this has resulted in numerous supplement manufacturers and distributors making outrageous claims about the wonders of this berry. Whenever a product becomes popular, as Acai has, false claims seem to pop up everywhere. But before I investigate these, let’s find out more about Acai. Acai berry is a dark purple colour fruit, which is similar in shape to a grape. These berries grow in huge clusters near the tops of palm trees in the Amazon rain forests. Each Acai berry contains just 10 percent fruit and pulp and a large seed, which has no benefits. Harvesting this fruit is laborious since the tree has no branches and each cluster of berries needs to be cut and brought down manually in order to preserve the fruit and pulp."

"text": "\"Is the 'Superfood' Acai Worth the Price?0December 30, 2008 • 99,823 views Previous Next Sales of acai products catapulted to $13.5 million last year, up from $435,000 two years previously. An acai craze has been fueled by discussions on the \"\"Oprah Winfrey Show,\"\" where at least two of her experts -- dermatologist Dr. Nicholas Perricone and heart surgeon Dr. Mehmet Oz -- have mentioned the so-called superfood. With a flavor that faintly resembles raspberries and chocolate, the fruit has 10 times more antioxidants than red grapes and 10 to 30 times more than the artery-protective flavonoids of red wine. It also seems to inhibit key enzymes in your body, perhaps reducing inflammation. But acai comes at a cost. One 60-capsule supply runs about $19.95 for a two-week dose. And while there is some merit to the antioxidant content of exotic fruits such as acai, consumers also get antioxidants from array of other foods, such as oranges, tomatoes and blueberries. There is also little evidence that it is useful as a weight-loss aid, although it has sometimes been marketed as one. Dr. Mercola's Comments: The açaí berry – although very healthy, may have become the latest victim of too much hype, just like so many other fad diets and quick-fix diet aids. Let’s face it -- consuming large quantities of açaí in the hopes of lowering the number on your scale is a fantasy, conjured up by marketing geniuses who get paid well to prey on your weaknesses and foibles."

"text": "\"Top Super Fruits, Potent Immune-Enhancing Fruit Varieties Super fruits, different than standard hybridized fruits, are variations that offer a broad array of nutrients that you can’t typically get from an apple or banana. These varieties may contain any number of unique components such as high quantities of antioxidants, polysaccharides and species-specific phytonutrients. Some additionally also offer distinct properties as adaptogens. Many of these types are found in exotic or remote locations and often not available as a fresh fruit, but as a dried version or powdered concentrate. Some, however, like schizandra, goji, jujube and golden berry, can be homegrown in many different temperate climate zones around the world and we are huge advocates of growing your own whenever possible. What are Superfruits? The term \"\"super fruit\"\", also spelled \"\"superfruit\"\", can be highly marketed and misused as an advertising gimmick, so it is important to be aware of low quality products, like energy drinks and bars, simply using the word \"\"superfruit\"\" to manipulate a sale. True superfruits contain any one of a number of superior components that provide condensed doses of nutriments that can be particularly helpful for most people living in today's world. They are, in essence, foods for the immune health, providing for both the surface (secretory) immune system and/or the deeper immune functions at root in the bone marrow. In our view, true superfruits integrated as dietary supplements, along with a health promoting diet and lifestyle, can be utilized as a preventative approach to sickness and chronic disease."

Because of double entry, we know there must be a minimum of two accounts involved—one of the accounts must be debited, and one of the accounts must be credited. Because Direct Delivery received $10, it must debit the account Cash. It must also credit a second account for $10. The second account will be Service Revenues, an income statement account. The reason Service Revenues is credited is because Direct Delivery must report that it earned $10 (not because it received $10). Recording revenues when they are earned results from a basic accounting principle known as the revenue recognition principle. The following tip reflects that principle. Here's a Tip Revenues accounts are credited when the company earns a fee (or sells merchandise) regardless of whether cash is received at the time.

"text": "What is the meaning of accrued in accounting?3. Accrued expenses (accrued liabilities)Accrued expenses (also called accrued liabilities ) represent unpaid and unrecorded costs incurred in the current period. Accrued expenses should be recognized before cash is paid and should be reported in the income statement in the period they are incurred, and not in the period they are settled (e.g. paid with cash). Accrued expenses or liabilities are shown under the current liabilities in the balance sheet . To record accrued expenses, a company debits (increases) an expense account and credits (increases) a liability account. These adjusting journal entries recognize expenses incurred but not yet paid (i.e. obligation or liability). If the company does not make such an adjusting entry, expenses (in the income statement) as well as current liabilities (in the balance sheet) will be understated, while equity will be overstated, as the result. Examples of accrued liabilities are wages, taxes, rent, and interest. For instance, to record accrued liabilities, companies credit the following accounts: Accounts Payable, Insurance Payable, Interest Payable, Legal Fees Payable, Office Salaries Payable, Rent Payable, Salaries Payable, Wages Payable, Accrued Payroll Payable, Income Taxes Payable, State Unemployment Taxes Payable, Employee Federal Income Taxes Payable, FICA Taxes Payable, etc. Accrued Expenses Example At the end of a period, companies often have accrued interest on long-term liabilities (e.g. bonds payable, notes payable)."

What is Accrued Expense? An accrued expense is an accounting term referring to an expense the firm owes, before it pays the expense. Accrued expenses are therefore unpaid debts, also known as accrued liabilities. The accrued expense concept is one of several accounting conventions that become necessary when the firm uses accrual accounting. In accrual accounting, firms record revenues when they actually earn them, and expenses when they actually owe them. The accrual definitions for \"\"earn\"\" and \"\"owe\"\" ensure that firms report revenue earnings along with the expenses that bring them, in the same accounting period. The actual cash that follows from these events may occur at different times. During an accounting period, for instance: A company may purchase and receive goods before it actually pays for them. This occurs, for example, when customers buy \"\"on credit\"\"—credit the seller issues."

An account payable is a liability for an amount owed to a creditor, usually for purchase of goods or services. Consider a buyer who makes a purchase and takes delivery of the goods, but does not pay the seller immediately. The seller is therefore selling \"\"on credit.\"\" As a result, buyer and seller now have a creditor-debtor relationship. And, the relationship lasts until the buyer actually pays."

It begins at the start of an accounting period and continues during the whole period. Transaction analysis is a process which determines whether a particular business event has an economic effect on the assets, liabilities or equity of the business. It also involves ascertaining the magnitude of the transaction i.e. its currency value. After analyzing transactions, accountants classify and record the events having economic effect via journal entries according to debit-credit rules. Frequent journal entries are usually recorded in specialized journals, for example, sales journal and purchases journal. The rest are recorded in a general journal. The following example illustrates how to record journal entries: Example Company A was incorporated on January 1, 2010 with an initial capital of 5,000 shares of common stock having $20 par value. During the first month of its operations, the company engaged in following transactions: Date Transaction Jan 2 An amount of $36,000 was paid as advance rent for three months.

Accounting Equation Can Help The accounting equation is a central part of bookkeeping and accounting. It can also provide insights into debits and credits. The basic accounting equation is: Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders' equity (if a corporation)or Assets = Liabilities + Owner's equity (if a sole proprietorship)With double-entry accounting, the accounting equation should always be in balance. In other words, not only will debits be equal to credits, but the amount of assets will be equal to the amount of liabilities plus the amount of owner's equity. The accounting equation is also the framework of the balance sheet, one of the main financial statements. Hence the balance sheet must also be in balance."

The terms trial balance and trial balance period refer to an error-checking step in the accounting cycle. The terms have meaning only in companies that use a double entry accounting system.

Income for tax purposes is determined according to the rules of the Internal Revenue Service which are passed into law by Congress (Thought the same rules applied with other contries). These rules often do not follow generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, differences will arise between accounting income and taxable income. These differences may be either temporary or permanent in nature. Temporary differences are referred to as “ timing differences ” because, with time, they reverse or turn around. Permanent differences are forever they do not reverse. In this post we are going to discuss the temporary differences. Advertisement Temporary differences involve the recognition of revenue or expense items in one year for tax purposes but in a different year for accounting purposes. Overall the total income is the same for both tax and accounting purposes; it is just the timing that is different."

Other common examples of liabilities include loans payable, bonds payable, interest payable, wages payable, and income taxes payable. Less common liabilities are customer deposits and deferred revenues. Deferred revenues come about when customers prepay a company for work to be done in a future accounting period. When the company performs the work, the liability will be reduced and the company will report the amount it earned as revenues on its income statement.

Accountants realize that if a company has a balance in Notes Payable, the company should be reporting some amount in Interest Expense and in Interest Payable. The reason is that each day that the company owes money it is incurring interest expense and an obligation to pay the interest. Unless the interest is paid up to date, the company will always owe some interest to the lender.

When a company sells a product subject to a sales tax, the company must collect the sales tax and subsequently remit it to the appropriate government. For example, if a retailer sells a product for $100, and the state sales tax rate is 7%, then the retailer will collect $7 from the customer and then transmit that $7 to the state government.2. Accounting for sales taxes Sales taxes collected from customers and not yet remitted to the tax authorities are usually recorded in Sales Taxes Payable account. There are two ways to approach recording sales taxes on a company's books. Under the first method, sales taxes are reflected in their own account (Sales Taxes Payable) directly. Under the second method, sales taxes are recorded as part of the sales account (Sales Revenue) and then are moved to their own account (Sales Taxes Payable).

Benefits ACE inhibitors improve survival in heart failure when added to conventional treatment. The greatest benefit is seen in those patients with the most severe heart failure. A smaller benefit is seen in patients with mild-to-moderate heart failure. However, despite the improved survival, the prognosis of moderate-to -severe heart failure remains poor. Nevertheless, largely because of the potential survival benefit, most cardiologists now believe that an ACE inhibitor should be added to diuretic therapy in all patients with overt heart failure, even if the heart failure is only mild. Some physicians prescribe ACE inhibitors before diuretics, although there is no trial-based evidence for this approach. The benefits of treatment are not restricted to survival."

"text": "\"Home Tutorials Search Author Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) Inhibitors General Pharmacology ACE inhibitors produce vasodilation by inhibiting the formation of angiotensin II. This vasoconstrictor is formed by the proteolytic action of renin (released by the kidneys) acting on circulating angiotensinogen to form angiotensin I. Angiotensin I is then converted to angiotensin II by angiotensin converting enzyme. ACE also breaks down bradykinin (a vasodilator substance). Therefore, ACE inhibitors, by blocking the breakdown of bradykinin, increase bradykinin levels, which can contribute to the vasodilator action of ACE inhibitors. The increase in bradykinin is also believed to be responsible for a troublesome side effect of ACE inhibitors, namely, a dry cough. Angiotensin II constricts arteries and veins by binding to AT 1receptors located on the smooth muscle, which are coupled to a Gq-protein and the the IP 3 signal transduction pathway. Angiotensin II also facilitates the release of norepinephrine from sympathetic adrenergic nerves and inhibits norepinephrine reuptake by these nerves. This effect of angiotensin II augments sympathetic activity on the heart and blood vessels. Cardiorenal Effects of ACE Inhibitors Vasodilation (arterial & venous) - reduce arterial & venous pressure - reduce ventricular afterload & preload Decrease blood volume - natriuretic - diuretic Depress sympathetic activity Inhibit cardiac and vascular hypertrophy ACE inhibitors have the following actions: Dilate arteries and veins by blocking angiotensin II formation and inhibiting bradykinin metabolism. This vasodilation reduces arterial pressure, preload and afterload on the heart."

Congestive heart failure (CHF) is a significant clinical challenge that is associated with high morbidity, high mortality, and economic burden. While major advances in lifesaving treatment have been made, our ability to recognize and optimally treat CHF is limited. B-type natriuretic peptide is currently being explored as a marker for left ventricular dysfunction and as a solution to improving diagnostic and therapeutic outcomes. This simple blood test has been shown to be useful in distinguishing CHF from other causes of dyspnea, to have prognostic value, and assist in optimizing medical therapy. The incorporation of B-type natriuretic peptide levels into daily practice is exciting and holds promise in revolutionizing the way we approach CHF. Congestive heart failure (CHF) is a significant clinical problem and is a leading cause of hospitalization in North America. Dyspnea, however nebulous, is often the only presenting complaint, and the time to diagnosis of CHF, assessment of severity, and treatment is thus variable."

"text": "\"Dilated Cardiomyopathy in Dogs By Ernest Ward, DVMMedical Conditions What is dilated cardiomyopathy? Cardiomyopathy is defined as degeneration of the heart muscle. As a result of this degeneration, the muscle becomes thinner, particularly the thick muscle wall of the left ventricle. The pressure of the blood inside the heart causes these thin walls to stretch resulting in a much larger heart. This condition is described as Dilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM). How common is the condition? Dilated cardiomyopathy is the most common cause of heart failure in certain large breeds of dogs. These include Boxers, Dobermans, and Great Danes. Occasionally, German Shepherd Dogs and some medium sized breeds such as Cocker Spaniels, English Springer Spaniels are also affected. Small breeds rarely develop DCM."

"text": "\"Physiologic Side Effects The site of ACE inhibitor activity (within the renin angiotensin aldosterone axis) can be pinpointed at the pluripotent ACE, an enzyme known to catalyze the conversion of angiotensin-I to angiotensin-II, as well as to facilitate the degradation of bradykinin to assorted vasoactive peptides. [ 2, 3] The basis for physiologic side effects with ACE inhibitors relates to these aforementioned changes in angiotensin-II (and possibly the increase in bradykinin) and is particularly prominent when the effected system -- cardiovascular and/or renal -- is heavily dependent on the presence of angiotensin-II for maintenance of function. ACE inhibitor side effects of a physiologic nature are typically worsened when patients are volume depleted, but even in the face of an overly sodium restricted diet, such side effects can develop. [ 11]Hypotension is not a specific side effect with ACE inhibitors; rather, it is a broadening of the physiologic action of these drugs that occurs most commonly when a patient becomes volume contracted. In the setting of ACE inhibitor-related hypotension, circumstances have evolved in such a way that peripheral resistance (and thereby BP) is dependent on angiotensin-II. As angiotensin-II is subtracted from this hemodynamic equation, there can be a precipitous fall in BP, which is only worsened by the actions of the vasodilator bradykinin. ACE inhibitor hypotension can present as a first-dose phenomenon or anytime in the course of chronic therapy. [ 12] Hypotension observed in the first days of treatment with an ACE inhibitor may be best managed with a dose reduction or temporary discontinuation of the drug. Hypotension developing in the course of chronic therapy can be anticipated -- such as in heart failure -- where oftentimes as much ACE inhibitor is given as BP permits. [ 13] In other instances hypotension is coupled to intercurrent febrile or gastrointestinal forms of dehydration and is unexpected."

Related to congestive cardiomyopathy: Dilated cardiomyopathy Congestive Cardiomyopathy Definition Cardiomyopathy is an ongoing disease process that damages the muscle wall of the lowerchambers of the heart. Congestive cardiomyopathy is the most common form of cardiomyopathy. In congestive cardiomyopathy, also called dilated cardiomyopathy, the walls of the heartchambers stretch (dilate) to hold a greater volume of blood than normal. Congestivecardiomyopathy is the final stage of many heart diseases and the most common conditionresulting in congestive heart failure. Description About 50,000 Americans develop cardiomyopathy each year. Of those, 87% have congestivecardiomyopathy. Primary cardiomyopathy accounts for only 1% of all deaths from heart disease. When the heart muscle is damaged by a disease process, it cannot pump enough blood to meetthe body's needs. Uninjured areas of the walls of the two lower heart chambers (called ventricles)stretch to make up for the lost pumping action."

Kidneys are essential to the urinary system. They produce highly concentrated urine which efficiently excretes a large quantity of toxins in a relatively small quantity of water. Kidney failure -- or renal failure -- occurs when the kidney cannot filter the toxins and other wastes in concentrated urine. Here we discuss chronic kidney disease (more specifically, cardio-renal disorders), which is more prevalent in the cavalier King Charles spaniel than in most other breeds. In a separate article, we discuss another kidney disorder prevalent in the CKCS, called xanthinuria, which are crystals or sediment in the dogs' urinary tract. Chronic Kidney Disease Chronic kidney disease * (CKD) is defined as a progressive loss in kidney function over a period of three or more months. Cavalier King Charles spaniels and Cocker spaniels reportedly are at increased risk to develop CKD, according to a July 2013 UK study. * CKD is also referred to as chronic renal disease. \"\" Renal\"\" refers to kidney functions."

"text": "Kaitlyn Shi Jia Li, Aced chemistry Answered Jul 5, 2015 · Author has 83 answers and 92.3k answer views Acidic foods are believed to taste sour because of their hydrogen ion concentration. Scientists believe that the human tongue determines taste through several different channels. The taste buds that register sour and salty flavors do so through ion channels. According to the Brønsted-Lowry definition, acids include any substance that gives up its hydrogen ions when mixed with another substance. Thus, acids increase the hydrogen ion concentration, which provides more ions for the tongue. Because the tongue gains ions, it registers the flavor as sour. Bases, on the other hand, gain ions when mixed. For instance, if one mixed an acid and a base together, the mixture would create water and salt. Bases taste more bitter because fewer hydrogen ions reach the tongue. Acidity can be measured by the p H level of a solution or compound."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Sour gas is natural gas or any other gas containing significant amounts of hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S). Natural gas is usually considered sour if there are more than 5.7 milligrams of H 2 S per cubic meter of natural gas, which is equivalent to approximately 4 ppm by volume under standard temperature and pressure. [ 1] [2] However, this threshold varies by country, state, or even agency or application. For instance, the Texas Railroad Commission considers a sour gas pipeline one that carries gas over 100 ppm by volume of H 2 S. [3] However, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality has historically defined sour gas for upstream operations – which requires permitting, reporting, and possibly additional emission controls – as gas that contains more than 24 ppm by volume. [ 4] [5] Natural gas that does not contain significant amounts of hydrogen sulfide is called \"\"sweet gas\"\". Although the terms ' acid gas ' and 'sour gas' are sometimes used interchangeably, strictly speaking, a sour gas is any gas that specifically contains hydrogen sulfide in significant amounts, whereas an acid gas is any gas that contains significant amounts of acidic gases such as carbon dioxide (CO 2) or hydrogen sulfide. Thus, carbon dioxide by itself is an acid gas, not a sour gas. In addition to being toxic, hydrogen sulfide in the presence of water also damages piping and other equipment handling sour gas by sulfide stress cracking. Natural gas typically contains several ppm of volatile sulfur compounds, but gas from one well in Canada is known to contain 90% hydrogen sulfide and others may have H 2 S contents in the tens of percent range. [ 6]Methods for sweetening [ edit]Main articles: Amine gas treating and Selexol Within oil refineries or natural gas processing plants, the removal of hydrogen sulfide and other organosulfur compounds is referred to as \"\"sweetening\"\"."

"text": "\"Scientists in the nineteenth century were able to come to establish that there are four primary tastes that can be classified by chemical makeups. As can be predicted, sugars are sweet, salts or ionic molecules are salty, alkaloids are bitter and acids are typically sour. Generally, sweet and salty tasting chemicals dissociate or ionize in the saliva, whereas bitter and and sour tasting things do not. Furthermore, recent studies in Japan have been able to classify a fifth taste, known as umami. Umami is the \"\"savoury\"\" taste obtained from amino acids, primarily glutamic acid and monosodium glutamate. Salty Taste The taste of salt, to a certain extent, is interpreted to be a positive taste. This is due to the fact that salt is needed by our bodies as a regulatory mechanism in homeostasis. On the other hand, when the body is not in need of any excess salt, the taste becomes negatively interpreted so that the individual no longer desires to consume it. The taste of salt generally comes from the sodium chloride molecule. The receptors specifically designed to interpret the taste of salt are comprised of amiloride-sensitive sodium channels and are called ENa C (Epithelial Sodium channel) channels."

Recently, γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) as well as the associated synthetic enzymes and receptors have also been identified in taste cells. GABA reduces taste-evoked ATP secretion from Receptor cells and is considered to be an inhibitory transmitter in taste buds. However, to date, the identity of GABAergic taste cells and the specific stimulus for GABA release are not well understood. In the present study, we used genetically-engineered Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells stably co-expressing GABA B receptors and Gαqo5 proteins to measure GABA release from isolated taste buds. We recorded robust responses from GABA biosensors when they were positioned against taste buds isolated from mouse circumvallate papillae and the buds were depolarized with KCl or a stimulated with an acid (sour) taste. In contrast, a mixture of sweet and bitter taste stimuli did not trigger GABA release. KCl- or acid-evoked GABA secretion from taste buds was Ca 2+ -dependent; removing Ca 2+ from the bathing medium eliminated GABA secretion. Finally, we isolated individual taste cells to identify the origin of GABA secretion."

It has a tart taste, and is also known as lemon salt or sour salt. Many of our customers use our citric acid to clean dishwashers and dishes, or to make fizzy bath bombs (fun!). What is Citric Acid? Citric acid is completely natural, produced by cells during the Krebs cycle. The acid gets its name from the citrus fruit family, which includes lemons, limes, oranges, tangerines, and grapefruits. Citrus fruits, especially the more sour ones like lemons and limes, owe their sharp taste to citric acid. How to Use Citric Acid in Food Our customers have used our citric acid as an ingredient in pretty much everything: cheeses, ice cream, alcoholic beverages, breads, and more. Because of its characteristic tart flavor, citric acid is often added to soft drinks and sour candies — the white, powdery coating on sour candies is often citric acid). Use citric acid in place of lemon juice: Although its flavor is slightly less complex than the flavor of a lemon, citric acid can be substituted literally anywhere lemon juice is used."

I first saw the word buttermilk in print while reading Laura Ingalls Wilder’s Little House in the Big Woods. In one riveting scene (I was 7 years old) Laura’s mom dyes some cream yellow with grated carrot and then churns it into butter. After shaping and embossing the butter, she takes the leftover liquid from the churn and gives Laura and her sister “each a drink of good, fresh buttermilk. ”This whole process—and especially the celebratory buttermilk quaff—stuck with me, as exotic images from literature tend to do when one is a child. So when I saw buttermilk on the menu at a Southern-themed restaurant called Threadgill’s a few months later, I promptly ordered a glass. My parents advised me to reconsider, but I persevered: This was a chance to commune with my favorite author and to prove to my parents that I had a hardy, advanced palate. ("

"text": "What Are Sour Cherries Good For?0Sour Cherry Power Botanical name: Prunus cerasus Originating in the Southeastern Europe between Russia and Turkey, sour cherries are one of America's most sought-after fruits, most commonly the Montmorency and Balaton varieties, primarily grown in Michigan, Utah, New York, Wisconsin, Washington, Oregon, and Pennsylvania. They're generally harvested between mid-June and early July for a year's worth of tart, flavorful goodness, although they're also available dried, frozen, and in juice and juice concentrates. After picking, sour cherries don't stay fresh for long, which is why they're a rare grocery store commodity. Slightly smaller and a brighter red (due to the flavonoid anthocyanin) next to the larger, deep red of sweet cherries, they're also called pie cherries, and used in jams and tarts. If you find the pucker power too strong, try combining them with milder fruits like strawberries, Bing cherries, peaches, or blueberries. For more information on cherries, see “ The Top Six Reasons Why Cherries are Naturally Good for You .”Health Benefits of Sour Cherries It's nice to have sour cherries frozen during summer to use during winter. The amazing thing is frozen sour cherries lose none of the nutritional value. They're chock-full of compounds that stave off inflammation, have antiviral and antibacterial properties, help support heart health, and even fight cancer. Two of these compounds are quercetin and ellagic acid, both shown to inhibit the growth of tumors and kill cancer cells without damaging healthy ones. Perhaps best of all, for all the nutrients they offer, sour cherries are low in calories."

It tends to become more common in people older than 40 years. However, acid reflux may not always present with the typical symptoms that most of us expect. Heartburn is considered to be a characteristic feature of reflux but there are instances where a person may not experience this symptom, and can sometimes be asymptomatic entirely. It is only with further attention that vague symptoms of reflux may become obvious. One of these is sour-tasting burps or acid burps. Belching With Acid Reflux Belching or burping is the expulsion of digestive gas through the mouth. It is an often unconscious act that occurs several times in a day. Most of the gas is air that was swallowed when eating, drinking and talking. While belching is considered to be normal, excessive belching can be a symptom of various diseases."

If you’re having an unpleasant feeling in your gut right now, I understand. As a teen, eating was a battle because I would get sour stomach and IBS symptoms constantly. We’re not alone, though. According to Health Line: Sixty percent of the adult population will experience some gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) within a 12 month period, and 20 to 30 percent will have weekly symptoms. People with GERD have a lower reported health-related qualify of life, which includes reduced enjoyment of food (80 percent), sleep problems (60 percent), andworks concentration difficulties when symptoms were present (40 percent).

Substitute sour salt for table salt in recipes if you are on a low-sodium diet. Don't substitute sour salt for table salt at the table, in uncooked dishes or after cooking: Its powerful sour flavor works best cooked into recipes instead of where it can make direct contact with the tongue. Add a pinch of sour salt to liquid-based recipes that also include sugar or other sweet elements such as lemonade or cold beet borscht. Include the sour salt early in the cooking process to give it time to dissolve thoroughly and disperse throughout the ingredients.

"text": "\"Sour Mash One style that is sometimes used for whiskey is that of a \"\"sour mash\"\". Jack explains ... The reason sour mashing is done is to lower the p H of the fermenting mash in order to help prevent bacterial infections. It is used in both rum and bourbon making because both grain and sugar cane/molasses have a large amount of naturally occuring yeast and bacteria growing on them because of the high sugar and starch content these products tend to have. It is much easier (on an industrial scale) to reuse the liquid left in the still after the run is finished to adjust the p H of the next batch, rather than using higher cost food grade acids. It will also help to create a more consistant product from batch to batch. Jack on how to do a bourbon/sourmash ... All the grains you listed ( I'd used rye flakes, corn grits & barley flakes but got into trouble) look like a de-husked, pre-processed variety (that will prevent any husk flavors - wheat is (I think) the only grain you can leave in the ferment without worrying about off (tannic) flavors developing. The husk on any other grain will make a drink that tastes like hay horse bedding). It also looks like a bourbon recipe, so, keeping with the industry standard, you ferment on the grain (only malt whiskey is sparged, anything with corn or rye in it is fermented on the grain). Here is how I do it. Mix your grain bill together and weigh it out."

Soldiers and federal government workers should learn the guidelines that affect what they can say and do on public media sites such as Facebook, Twitter and others. ( Photo Credit: Graphic by Ben Sherman)VIEW ORIGINALFORT SILL, Okla. (Aug. 6, 2012) -- The 2012 Presidential election is less than 90 days away. Political perspectives and opinions are running at a fevered pitch, and many people are more than willing to express their opinions in public. Often Soldiers and government employees want to get involved with the political process, especially on social media sites. There are, however, a number of things that they need to keep in mind when it comes to being in military or government service and being involved in political activity. For example, an Army Reservist found himself in deep trouble last year after he took the stage at a Ron Paul campaign event while in uniform to express his support for the candidate. This kind of political activity is prohibited because he was in uniform. Social media is giving people more opportunities to express their opinions about politics than ever before."

LEAs which have their ability to apply their powers restricted in some way are said to operate within a jurisdiction. Non executive powers jurisdictional coverage of Europol LEAs will have some form of geographic restriction on their ability to apply their powers. The LEA might be able to apply its powers within a country, for example the United States of America 's Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, within a division of a country, for example the Australian state Queensland Police, or across a collection of countries, for example international organizations such as Interpol, or the European Union 's Europol. LEAs which operate across a collection of countries tend to assist in law enforcement activities, rather than directly enforcing laws, by facilitating the sharing of information necessary for law enforcement between LEAs within those countries, for example Europol has no executive powers. [ 1]Sometimes a LEA’s jurisdiction is determined by the complexity or seriousness of the non compliance with a law. Some countries determine the jurisdiction in these circumstances by means of policy and resource allocation between agencies, for example in Australia, the Australian Federal Police take on complex serious matters referred to it by an agency [2] [3] and the agency will undertake its own investigations of less serious or complex matters by consensus, while other countries have laws which decide the jurisdiction, for example in the United States of America some matters are required by law to be referred to other agencies if they are of a certain level of seriousness or complexity, for example cross state boundary kidnapping in the United States is escalated to the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

"text": "Propaganda How the NDAA Allows US Gov to Use Propaganda Against Americans By occupynews - July 22, 2013 087The US government has unbound the legal regulations against using propaganda against foreign audiences and American citizens. The intention is to sway public opinion by using television, radio, newspapers, and social media targeting the American and foreign people in controlled psy-ops. The newest version of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) has an amendment added that negates the Smith-Mundt Act of 1948 (SMA) and the Foreign Relations Authorization Act of 1987. These laws made propaganda used to influence foreigners and US citizens illegal. Without these laws, disinformation could run rampant throughout our information junkets. This amendment added to the NDAA has passed into implementation as of this month. SMA defines the prohibition of domestic access to influence information through a variety of means, from broadcast to publishing of books, media, and online sources by restricting the State Department. The Broadcasting Board of Governors was created from SMA. This agency claims to “inform, engage, and connect people around the world in support of freedom and democracy”. They omit that their specialty is making sure propaganda is added to the informational flow we all depend on."

Thus, almost any attempt to sway public opinion,including lobbying, commercial advertising, and missionary work, can be broadly construed as propaganda. Generally, however, the term is restricted to the manipulation of political beliefs. Although allusions to propaganda can be found in ancient writings (e.g., Aristotle's Rhetoric ), theorganized use of propaganda did not develop until after the Industrial Revolution, when moderninstruments of communication first enabled propagandists to easily reach mass audiences.

Unlike in the occupation of Germany, the Soviet Union was allowed little to no influence over Japan. This foreign presence marked the only time in Japan's history that it had been occupied by a foreign power. [ 1] The country became a parliamentary democracy that recalled \"\" New Deal \"\" priorities of the 1930s by Roosevelt. [ 2] The occupation, codenamed Operation Blacklist, [3] was ended by the San Francisco Peace Treaty, signed on September 8, 1951, and effective from April 28, 1952, after which Japan's sovereignty – with the exception, until 1972, of the Ryukyu Islands – was fully restored. According to John Dower, in his book Cultures of War: Pearl Harbor/Hiroshima/9-11/Iraq, the factors behind the success of the occupation were: Discipline, moral legitimacy, well-defined and well-articulated objectives, a clear chain of command, tolerance and flexibility in policy formulation and implementation, confidence in the ability of the state to act constructively, the ability to operate abroad free of partisan politics back home, and the existence of a stable, resilient, sophisticated civil society on the receiving end of occupation policies – these political and civic virtues helped make it possible to move decisively during the brief window of a few years when defeated Japan itself was in flux and most receptive to radical change.

"text": "\"Hazing Definitions Hazing refers to any activity expected of someone joining a group (or to maintain status in a group) that humiliates, degrades or risks emotional and/or physical harm, regardless of the person's willingness to participate. In years past, hazing practices were typically considered harmless pranks or comical antics associated with young men in college fraternities. Today we know that hazing extends far beyond college fraternities and is experienced by boys/men and girls/women in school groups, camps, religious organizations, university organizations, athletic teams, the military, and other social and professional organizations. Hazing is a complex social problem that is shaped by power dynamics operating in a group and/or organization and within a particular cultural context. Hazing is a process, based on a tradition that is used by groups to maintain a hierarchy (i.e., a pecking order) within the group. Regardless of consent, the activities require individuals to engage in situations which are physically and psychologically stressful. Hazing activities are generally considered to be: physically abusive, hazardous, and/or sexually violating. The specific behaviors or activities within these categories vary widely among participants, groups and settings. While alcohol use is common in many types of hazing, other examples of typical hazing practices include: personal servitude; sleep deprivation and restrictions on personal hygiene; yelling, swearing and insulting new members/rookies; being forced to wear embarrassing or humiliating attire in public; consumption of vile substances or smearing of such on one's skin; brandings; physical beatings; binge drinking and drinking games; sexual simulation and sexual assault. These activities can be humiliating, demeaning, intimidating, and exhausting, all of which results in physical and/or emotional discomfort."

Walter Lippmann Probably every conflict is fought on at least two grounds: the battlefield and the minds of the people via propaganda.

While the issue of propaganda often is discussed in the context of militarism, war and war-mongering, it is around us in all aspects of life. As the various examples below will show, common tactics in propaganda often used by either side include: Using selective stories that come over as wide-covering and objective. Partial facts, or historical context Reinforcing reasons and motivations to act due to threats on the security of the individual. Narrow sources of experts to provide insights in to the situation. ( For example, the mainstream media typically interview retired military personnel for many conflict-related issues, or treat official government sources as fact, rather than just one perspective that needs to be verified and researched)."

preindustrial society to the way in which an economy is organized-hunting and gathering, horticulture, and agrarian, Industrial Revolution brought about changes in the social organization of the workplace, people left homes and began working in central locations, new form of social structure emerged-industrial society, greatly increased the wealth of nations, two basic types of economic systems that distinguish contemporary industrial societies: capitalism and socialism, serve as ideal types of the economic system, no nation precisely fits either model, the economy of each individual state represents a mixture of the two, one type is generally more useful in describing a society's economic structure Industrial society society that depends on mechanization to produce its goods and services Capitalism economic system in which the means of production are held largely in private hands and the main incentive for economic activity is the accumulation of profits, with industrial revolution came the need for individuals to take risks to finance new inventions, machinery, and businesses, bankers, industrialists, and other holders of a lot of money become the most powerful economic force, invested their funds in the hope that they would make greater profits, became owners of property and business firms, vary in the degree to which government regulates private ownership and economic activity, laissez faire immediately after industrial revolution, capitalism now has different form, private ownership and maximization of profits still important, now features government regulation of economic relations to help consumers, tolerates monopolistic prices-outlawed in some nations like US by antitrust legislation-prevent any business from taking over so much of the competition in an industry that it controls the market, CONFLICT says pure monopolies are not basic element of economy in US but competition is more restricted than one might expect in what is called a free enterprise system-in numerous industries a few companies largely dominate the field and keep new enterprises from entering the marketplace, economic downturn of 08 moved US further from laissez faire, globalization and the rise of multinational corporations has spread the capitalistic pursuit of profits around the world, governments are not always prepared to deal with the sudden influx of foreign capital and its effect on their economies Laissez-faire Adam Smith, people could compete freely with minimal government interference in the economy Monopoly exists when a single business firm controls the market, allows the firm to effectively control a commodity by dictating pricing, quality, and availability, buyers have little choice because no one else has the product, violates laissez-faire Socialism Karl Marx and Friedrich Echols, means of production and distribution in a society are collectively rather than privately owned, disturbed by exploitation of working class exchanging labor for low wages during industrial revolution, meet people's needs rather than maximize profits, reject laissez-faire, central government as representative of the people should make basic economic decisions, government owns all major industries, nations vary in the extent in which they tolerate private ownership, commitment to social service programs to all, Marx believed they would eventually wither away and become communist societies, all nations seen as communist today fall short of ideal type Communism economic system under which all property is communally owned and no social distinctions are made on the basis of people's ability to produce The informal economy transfers of money, goods, or services take place but are not reported to the government, under the table jobs, avoid taxes and government regulations, this sector of the economy depends to a large extent on the labor of women-work is undervalued or unrecognized, FUNCTIONALIST say bureaucratic regulations may contribute to the rise of an informal or underground economy-in developing world government sets up burdensome business regulations that people go underground to avoid and get things done, dysfunctional for a country's overall political and economic well-being, cannot easily expand when profitable, limited protection, less likely to save and invest income, may be dysfunctional for workers with unsafe or dangerous working conditions with no benefits and less likely to transition to formal economy because of no legal experience Power and authority in any society someone or some group makes the discussions about how to use resources and how to allocate goods, cultural universal is the exercise of power and authority, struggle for power and authority involved politics, concerned with social interactions among individuals and groups and their impact on the larger political and economic order Politics Harold Lasswell, who gets what, when, and how Power Max Weber, ability to exercise one's will over others, power lies at the heart of the political system, was based on nation-state system now based on globalization with new opportunities and mew concentrations of power, power now exercised on a global and national state, 3 basic sources of power with any political system: force, influence, and authority Force actual or threatened use of coercion to impose one's will on others Influence exercise of power through a process of persuasion Authority institutionalized power that is recognized by the people over whom it is exercised, connected with those who hold legitimate power through elected or publicly acknowledged positions, power often limited Types of authority Weber developed classification system for authority, 3 ideal types of authority: traditional, rational-legal, and charismatic, did not insist that only one type applies to a given society or organization, all can be present but relative importance will vary Traditional Authority legitimate power is conferred by custom and accepted practice, ex. king, queen, tribal chief, may be loved or hated, may be competent or destructive, authority rests in custom not personal characteristics, technical competence or written law, people accept ruler's authority because that is how things have always been, it is absolute Rational-Legal Authority power made legitimate by law, ex. Congress and president of US, leaders derive authority from written rules and regulations of political systems, leaders thought to have specific areas of competence and authority but not thought to be endowed with divine inspiration Charismatic authority power made legitimate by a leader's exceptional personal or emotional appeal to his or her followers, lets a person lead or inspire without relying on a set of rules or traditions, derived from the beliefs of followers more than actually qualities of leaders, ex. Jesus, MLK, seen as having qualities that set him or her apart from ordinary citizens-authority will remain unquestioned, INTERACTIONIST Carl Couch says growth in electronic media has helped this Types of government each society establishes a political system through which is it governed, modern industrialized nations these formal systems of government will make a significant number of critical political decisions, 5 basic types: monarchy, oligarchy, dictatorship, totalitarianism, democracy Monarchy form of government headed by a single member of a royal family, usually a king, queen, or some other hereditary ruler, use to claim God gave them divine right to rule, governed on basis of traditional forms of authority and sometimes with force, recently they only hold genuine governmental power in a few nations (Monaco), now have little practical power, serve primarily ceremonial purposes Oligarchy form of government in which a few individuals rule, old method of governing, now often takes the form of military rule, ex. China partial example with large exclusive group of Communist party, some say western nations are oligarchies rather than democracies Dictatorship government in which one person has nearly total power to make and enforce laws, rule primarily through coercion, seize power rather than being freely elected, some are charismatic and popular usually tinged with fear, others are hated, develop such overwhelming control over people's lives that their government's are called totalitarian (monarchies and oligarchies may achieve this)Totalitarian involves virtually complete government control and surveillance over all aspects of a society's social and political life Democracy government by the people, impractical at national level in large populous nations so popular rule is maintained though representative democracy Representative democracy form of government in which certain individuals are selected to speak for the people, ex. US with elected members of Congress and legislatures-critics question if it's truly representative because not everyone in the US feels included Political behavior in the US US citizens take for granted many aspects of their political system, each society has its own way of governing itself and making decisions Participation and apathy representative democracy will function most effectively and fairly if an informed and active electorate communicates its views to government leaders, does not happen in US, small majority tend to identify with a political party, small minority usually higher social classes) actually participate in political organizations, 80s brought people being turned off by politics and big government with low voting turnout, participation in politics may be increasing especially online,"

"text": "\"Quora User, I've got it almost memorized. Answered Dec 15, 2014 · Author has 13.2k answers and 107m answer views Originally Answered: What's the first amendment? Of the The United States Constitution? Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. What does the First Amendment accomplish? In today's government (and by and with the Fourteenth Amendment ), it: Prevents any government entity in the USA from establishing a religion, participating in religious activities, sponsoring religion, favoring a religion, discriminating against religions and/or in any way prohibiting the free exercise of religious activities. The lone exception is the US military where the unique pressures of the job requires the US government to take extra steps to ensure that members have access to the clergy of their choice. Because of the sui generis nature of being in the military and deployed and the needs for a streamlined apparatus, the Supreme Court has held that the US military can and must commission religious officers to provide proper counseling and ministerial duties to service members -- this provision absolutely means permitting all religions to participate without favoritism to any one. Prevents any government entity in the United States from interfering with the right of the people to speak their mind, with artistic, written, physically expressive, vocal, pictorial and other \"\"expressions\"\" counting as freedom of speech. The reasonable limits on this are that certain expressions can be curtailed that are pornographic, violate certain freedoms (privacy), that call for violence, that call for or can be directly connected to harm of a group of people or the US government."

"text": "Total war A woman at work in a munitions factory during World War IWorld War I was a total war, involving the governments, economies and populations of participating nations to an extent never seen before in history. This was distinct from the way ‘smaller’ wars had been fought, like the Crimean War (1853-56) and late-19th century colonial wars. In ‘total war’ – a term not coined until the 1930s, by German general Paul von Ludendorff – the entire nation was called into service, rather than just its military. Governments played an active and interventionist role, passing laws that would be intolerable during peacetime. Ministers and departments took control of economic production, nationalising factories, determining production targets, allocating manpower and resources. Conscription was introduced to bolster military forces and resources like ships, trains or vehicles were commandeered for military purposes. Wartime governments also acted to protect national security, by implementing press censorship, curfews and strict punishments for breaches and violations. They also made extensive use of propaganda, both to raise public morale and to raise money through war bonds. Britain initiated total war from the outset. A week after the declaration of war, the parliament at Westminster passed the Defence of the Realm Act."

"text": "Social Movements Social movements are broad alliances of people connected through a shared interest in either stopping or instigating social change. Learning Objectives Discover the difference between social movements and social movement organizations, as well as the four areas social movements operate within Key Takeaways Key Points There are both a number of different kinds of social movements, as well as various stages that a social movement can undergo in the course of its development. Several theories have been proposed to explain the creation of social movements. Each of these theories highlights a different aspect of society (e.g. deprivation, marginalization, culture, etc. ) as being key to the formation of these movements. Social movements are distinct from social movement organizations (SMOs). An SMO is a formally organized component of a social movement, and as such it may represent only one facet of an entire movement. According to Anthony Giddens, the four domains of modern society in which social movements are active include the political sphere, the workplace, the environment, and the issue of peace. Social movements often give rise to counter movements aimed at stopping whatever change the initial social movement is advocating. Key Termssocial movements: Social movements are a type of group action."

"text": "July/August 2014The Russians of Estonia: Twenty Years After Katja Koort I was born in Kohtla-Jarve, in northeastern Estonia, a city with a chemical plant, an oil shale plant, and several mines. My Russian parents, who had come to Estonia when they were children, had moved there in the 1960s from the capital, Tallinn, to help build the socialist future. My peculiarly named hometown was, and still is, located quite close to the Russian border, but at a time when the radio constantly played the popular song “Moi adres ne dom I ne ulitsa, moi adres Sovetski Soyuz” (My address is not a house or a street, my address is the Soviet Union), the meaning of the border between Estonia and Russia was something completely different for me than it is now. Most ordinary people at the time believed the Russian propaganda, reflected in everything from education to interior design, that all fifteen republics joined the Soviet Union voluntarily. To doubt this—or worse, share your doubts with someone—was a punishable crime. Later I also realized that for us, as Russians, it was easy to believe in the friendship of nations because our ethnic group was clearly in a privileged status in the vast Soviet family. Share Tweet Email Print The Baltic states are commonly considered a single entity due to their small size and similar recent history, but the traditional cultures of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania, their experiences during the Soviet occupation, as well as their subsequent development after their independence was restored in 1991, have been very different. Unlike other Baltic states, Estonia, in terms of geography, culture, and linguistics, belongs more to northern rather than eastern Europe. One of the most important factors that shape national identity is language. The Estonian language belongs to the Finno-Ugric grouping of the Uralic language family, which is completely separate from the Indo-European languages, a fact that brings Estonians closer to Finland than to their southern neighbors whose languages are related, albeit distantly, to Russian."

There are three subspecies of adder that can be found in Western Europe, East Asia and throughout the Arctic Circle. Adder is the only poisonous snake in England. Adders may survive in different habitats and climates. They are usually seen in grasslands, forests, swamps, wetlands, rocky slopes and semi-deserts. Major threats to the survival of adders are habitat destruction and killing due to fear of snakes and because of their venom which is used in folk medicine. Luckily, number of adders in the wild is still stable and they are not on the list of endangered species. Interesting Common adder Facts: Adders are not very large in size. Females are slightly longer and wider than males. They are usually 24 to 35 inches long, weighing between 1.8 and 6.3 ounces."

"text": "Snakes alive Tweet Not much can hurt you in Scotland, but the adder can, and as Graham Holliday reports, it's much maligned as a result The adder is Scotland’s only poisonous snake. As such it has earned a dubious reputation as a threatening animal. However, adders are very rarely dangerous. In the last 100 years only 12 people are known to have died from adder bites, whereas several people die every year from insect bites and pet dog attacks. Sadly the stigma and a degree of fear continue to surround this shy serpent. “ The danger from adder bites is greatly exaggerated,” explains Peter Norman, biodiversity officer for Dumfries & Galloway Council who is spearheading a 2006 public awareness campaign for adders in Galloway. “ Bites from adders are rare, and most occur when a snake is picked up. Most reactions to adder bites are painful but not serious, although any bite should be regarded as potentially serious and immediate medical advice should be sought.” Adders are easy to distinguish because of the distinctive dark zig-zag on its back. At about 65 centimetres in length, the females are 10 centimetres longer than their male counterparts."

"text": "[ Animal Facts ] [ Snake Index ] [ Activities ] [ Facts ] [ Photos ]Cobra Snake< PREV NEXT >FANGS!Although most snakes have teeth, four rows on the top and two on the bottom, not all snakes have fangs. Only the poisonous ones do. Fangs are sharp, long, hollow or grooved teeth that are connected to a small sac in the snake’s head behind its eyes. These sacs produce a poisonous liquid called venom. When a snake bites, venom is released and starts to work immediately to kill or paralyze the prey. For some snakes with really long fangs, the fangs will fold back into the mouth so they don’t bite themselves! When a snake loses or breaks a fang it will grow another. Since the poison will work almost immediately, some snakes will hold onto the animal, which is unlucky enough to be in its mouth, until it stops struggling and the snake can start to swallow it. Other snakes will bite and then release the animal so that it does not get hurt when the animal struggles and slowly dies. These snakes will use their flicking tongue to smell and follow the victim until it dies and can be eaten."

Surprisingly, we have not published a list of the most venomous snakes – and so, today, we fill that void with the following list. This is probably also a good time to point out (which we have done on a previous list) that something is venomous when it injects you with venom, and something is poisonous when it harms you through touch or eating.10Rattlesnake The only snake from the Americas on the list, the Rattlesnake is easily identifiable by the tell tale rattle on the end of its tail. They are actually a part of the Pit Viper family, and are capable of striking at up to 2/3rd their body length. The Eastern Diamondback in considered the most venomous species in North America. Surprisingly, juveniles are considered more dangerous than adults, due to their inability to control the amount of venom injected. Most species of rattlesnakes have hemotoxic venom, destroying tissue, degenerating organs and causing coagulopathy (disrupted blood clotting). Some degree of permanent scarring is very likely in the event of a venomous bite, even with prompt, effective treatment, and can lead to the loss of a limb or death. Difficulty breathing, paralysis, drooling and massive hemorrhaging are also common symptoms. Thus, a rattlesnake bite is always a potentially fatal injury."

[ 2] Known by a host of common names including common adder and common viper, adders have been the subject of much folklore in Britain and other European countries. [ 5] They are not regarded as especially dangerous; [3] the snake is not aggressive and usually bites only when alarmed or disturbed. Bites can be very painful, but are seldom fatal. [ 6] The specific name, berus, is New Latin and was at one time used to refer to a snake, possibly the grass snake, Natrix natrix. [ 7]The common adder is found in different terrains, habitat complexity being essential for different aspects of its behaviour. It feeds on small mammals, birds, lizards, and amphibians, and in some cases on spiders, worms, and insects. The common adder, like most other vipers, is ovoviviparous. Females breed once every two or three years, with litters usually being born in late summer to early autumn in the Northern Hemisphere. Litters range in size from three to 20 with young staying with their mothers for a few days."

Despite their sinister reputation, snakes are almost always more scared of you than you are of them. Few snakes, with the occasional exception of king cobras ( Ophiophagus hannah) or black mambas ( Dendroaspis polylepis ), act aggressively toward a human without provocation. Snakes have no limbs, yet all are meat eaters. They catch prey that includes insects, birds, small mammals, and other reptiles, sometimes other snakes. Only about 400 of 3,000 snake species worldwide inject venom (a poison). Many snakes catch their prey by constriction. In constriction, a snake suffocates its prey by tightening its hold around the chest, preventing breathing or causing direct cardiac arrest. Snakes do not kill by crushing prey. Some snakes grab prey with their teeth and then swallow it whole."

Although not all snakes are venomous, the ones that are may have the potential to inflict a death sentence within 30 minutes. This is the power of one of the world’s most venomous animals. Snakes can be anywhere, from the arid deserts of Australia to the tropical backyards of Florida residents. Those who are unfortunate enough to be bitten by snakes have described agonizing snake bite symptoms such as difficulty breathing, vomiting and nausea; numbness, and organ failure. It’s a relatively painful way of dying. And even though we have developed anti-venom which has been responsible for the survival of many; if not treated, bites from venomous snakes can still claim lives."

Please help to ensure that disputed statements are reliably sourced. ( February 2015) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)Of the 3400 snake species, there are around 600 venomous snake species in the world. This is an overview of the snakes that pose a significant health risk to humans, through snakebites or other physical trauma. The varieties of snake that most often cause serious snakebites depend on the region of the world. In Africa, the most dangerous species include mambas, Egyptian cobras, puff adders, and carpet vipers; in the Middle East the species of greatest concern are carpet vipers and elapids; in Central and South America, Bothrops (including the terciopelo or fer-de-lance) and Crotalus ( rattlesnakes) are of greatest concern. In South Asia, it has historically been believed that Indian cobras, common kraits, Russell's viper and carpet vipers were the most dangerous species; however other snakes may also cause significant problems in this area of the world. [ 1] While several species of snakes may cause more bodily destruction than others, any of these venomous snakes are still very capable of causing human fatalities should a bite go untreated, regardless of their venom capabilities or behavioral tendencies.

You might consider them to be more dangerous than endangered, but numbers of the common death adder are plummeting. Rod Hobson, resource ranger with Queensland Parks and Wildlife in Toowoomba said while that is partially due to habitat loss, cane toad poisoning is a leading cause of death in the species. \"\" The toxins of the cane toad is very deadly to Australian reptiles, including the death adder,\"\" Mr Hobson said. \"\" I found one [death adder] on Eurong that hadn't even swallowed the cane toad, it had died with the toad still in its mouth. That's how fast acting the toxin is. \"\" It's really being reduced in range. It's quite uncommon to rare on the mainland now, although it's still holding up on some islands, like Magnetic Island and Fraser Island. \"\" But on the mainland, it's just about disappeared from many places it was once quite common. \"\" As well as cane toad poisoning, loss of habitat is also reducing death adder numbers. \"\""

Do you want your murderer to kill them without letting anyone know what you plan to do or who your killer is? Try using poison. It's easy to get, easy to use, and even easier to cover up. Maybe your killer could slip some poisonous mushrooms in the victim's salad. Or place a cobra in her bed while she's sleeping. If you set it up right, your killer could commit murder and get away with it, at least until you want him to get caught. No guilt, no jail time, no regret. It's only fiction after all. In the pages of your novel or short story you can poison anyone you like, and instead of sending you to prison, people will cheer you for your resourcefulness and imagination."

Also get to see some pictures of some of the fearsome venomous snakes in the world. They were regarded to be the embodiment of peace in the Roman myths, and stood as the symbol of the completeness of heaven and earth in the Mexican folklores. However, the Greek legends reputed these cold blooded crawlers as a source of evil, and the Old Testament believed them as the figure of 'Satan'. I am referring to no other than one of the most magnificent creations of nature, the ones which never fail to give most people the fright of their life - snakes! If you ask my opinion or the way I look at these slithering crawlers, then you would only find elements of praise and appreciation. For me, they symbolize an unmistakable conjunction of power and patience. Watching their behavior teaches me how to channel my actions to achieve what I desire. And watching them slithering away on any just any surface helps me realize that determination and courage count more than just having a good pair of limbs. Venomous Snakes - Their Types Basically, on land there are four known families of poisonous snakes - Elapidae, Viperidae, Colubridae, and Atractaspididae."

People who are weak or either very old or very young may experience a significant impact on their body functions from a copperhead snake bite. The copperhead injects its venom through ducts in its fangs. Its venom disrupts the red blood cells of its prey that in turn becomes completely subdued. Copperhead snakes have jaws that are flexible enough to swallow prey larger than twice its own diameter. Copperhead Bite Statistics According to U. S. poison centers, 769 cases of bites from copperheads were reported in 2001. In total, those bites account for 37 percent of the total number of venomous snake bites4 (Figure 1).

Common venomous snakes include the families Elapidae, Viperidae, Atractaspididae, and some of the Colubridae. The toxicity of them is mainly indicated by murine LD 50, while multiple factors are considered to judge their potential danger to humans. Contents [ hide ]1 Evolution2 Taxonomy3 Terminology4 Danger4.1 Toxicity issues4.2 Other factors5 See also6 References7 External links Evolution [ edit]Main article: Evolution of snake venom The evolutionary history of venomous snakes can be traced back to as far as 25 million years ago. [ 1] Snake venom is actually modified saliva used for prey immobilization and self-defense and is usually delivered through highly specialized teeth, hollow fangs, directly into the bloodstream or tissue of the target. Evidence has recently been presented for the Toxicofera hypothesis, but venom was present (in small amounts) in the ancestors of all snakes (as well as several lizard families) as \"\"toxic saliva\"\" and evolved to extremes in those snake families normally classified as venomous by parallel evolution. The Toxicofera hypothesis further implies that \"\"nonvenomous\"\" snake lineages have either lost the ability to produce venom (but may still have lingering venom pseudogenes ), or actually do produce venom in small quantities, likely sufficient to help capture small prey but causing no harm to humans when bitten. Taxonomy [ edit]There is not a single or special taxonomic group for venomous snakes that comprise species from different families. This has been interpreted to mean venom in snakes originated more than once as the result of convergent evolution. Around a quarter of all snake species are identified as being venomous."

Take a look at some examples, and then test your knowledge with a quiz. Definition Every day, you use words to describe how one or more specific people, places or things stands out from a larger group. For example, you might say 'James is the smartest boy in the class' to describe how James, a person, is different from the larger group of people in the class. You might also say 'Rebecca is the tallest girl on the soccer team' to describe how Rebecca differs from the other girls on the team. You can also use these phrases to describe one or more places or things. You might say 'San Francisco is the coldest city in California' or 'that tree is the most beautiful tree I have ever seen.' You can also describe an action performed to its highest degree within a group of actions just like it by saying things like, 'Barry slept the longest' or 'Laura ran the fastest.' You likely use the superlative form every day. The superlative form is used to describe one or more people, places or things within a larger group of people, places, or things, or to state that an action is performed to the highest degree within a group of actions just like it."

Adjectives are best used sparingly. Generally, nouns and verbs should do the bulk of the descriptive work in your prose. Don’t simply tell your reader that something is beautiful, exciting, or interesting. Use your words to show why these descriptive labels are appropriate. Want more adjectives?

A predicate adjective is a subject complement, a word or group of words that follows a linking verb or verb phrase such as is, am, were, smell, feel, taste, look, sound, have been, and did seem. Predicate adjectives help describe the subject or subjects in a sentence by giving information about characteristics such as the subjects’ appearances and feelings. Predicate Adjective Examples: (What have I been? I have been sleepy. Sleepy is the predicate adjective; it describes I . ) This soup tastes great! ( How does the soup taste? It tastes great. Great is the predicate adjective; it describes soup . )"

Broadly speaking, any confidential business information which provides an enterprise a competitive edge may be considered a trade secret. Trade secrets encompass manufacturing or industrial secrets and commercial secrets. The unauthorized use of such information by persons other than the holder is regarded as an unfair practice and a violation of the trade secret. Depending on the legal system, the protection of trade secrets forms part of the general concept of protection against unfair competition or is based on specific provisions or case law on the protection of confidential information. The subject matter of trade secrets is usually defined in broad terms and includes sales methods, distribution methods, consumer profiles, advertising strategies, lists of suppliers and clients, and manufacturing processes.

It is crucial that the companies understand that what can be protected and how within their respective countries. The starting point of this intellectual property was the copyrights, trademarks and the upgrowing patents then came legislations covering industrial designs and geographical indications as important intellectual properties. With the growing technology and development and with the growing competition to become a high-tech country, a revolution in the field of Information Technology arrived. With the advancement of this information technology, a new branch in the field of intellectual property flourished, called as the Layout-Design or the of the semiconductor integrated circuits. The semiconductor integrated circuit is an integral part of every computer chip. The fifth generation computers are using Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) where numerous transistors are accommodated on a single chip, cutting down the size of the chip and at the same time increasing it’s processing power significantly. This ultimately translates into smaller and more powerful computers. Hence, the development of the layout-design on a semiconductor integrated circuit as an intellectual property is quite significant. Hence, a step was taken by various organizations to pass regulations regarding this issue."

"text": "November 1, 2013Striking four restrictive covenants in an employment agreement as overbroad, the Arizona Court of Appeals affirmed the dismissal of a breach of contract claim against the president of a public relations firm who set up a business competing with her former employer. Orca Communications Unlimited, LLC v. Noder, No. 12-0183 (Ariz. Ct. App. Oct. 17, 2013). However, the Court allowed claims for breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, breach of the duty of loyalty, tortious interference, and unfair competition to proceed, finding they were not preempted by the Arizona Uniform Trade Secrets Act. Background Ann Noder served as the President of Orca Communications Unlimited. As a condition of her employment, Noder signed a Confidentiality, Non-Solicitation and Non-Competition Agreement that included four restrictive covenants: (1) a confidentiality provision, (2) a non-competition provision, (3) a customer non-solicitation provision, and (4) an employee non-solicitation provision. Under the confidentiality provision, Noder was prohibited from directly or indirectly using any confidential information to compete with Orca. The Agreement defined confidential information as “knowledge or information not generally known to the public or in the public relations industry,” including any information Noder learned during her employment."

Puffery is especially featured in testimonials. Contents1 Example2 Where substantiation is needed3 Federal Trade Commission definition4 Puff piece5 See also6 References Example For instance, a diner advertisement promoting the “world’s best cup of coffee” would classify as puffery. That claim would be almost impossible to substantiate, and no reasonable consumer would take such exaggeration at face value. Puffery often uses the superlative form of a word, like “best” or “greatest”. Where substantiation is needed However, a company making a superlative claim such as “cheapest” or “safest” usually has to substantiate such competitive claims. Merchants must exercise extreme caution when making statements about the quality, condition, or facts about their products or services. A slight variation in wording may result in an express warranty."

But when its inventor died last year he failed to sell it and may have taken the secret to his grave. Scientists still say they are desperate to learn the secret of 'Starlite' - and the inventor's family may have it. The material was the invented by the eccentric English inventor and former hairdresser Maurice Ward who had no formal scientific training and claimed he put it together on his kitchen table with a food processor The material was the invented by the eccentric English inventor and former hairdresser Maurice Ward who had no formal scientific training and claimed he put it together on his kitchen table with a food processor. It was unveiled to the world on the BBC TV show ‘Tomorrow’s World’ in 1991 during which he held a Starlite-coated egg up to a blowtorch. Despite the extreme heat it was barely warm to the touch and was still runny inside. Experts immediately realised its possibilities for things like aeroplanes, fire doors, spacecraft and dozens more possibilities. Mr Ward, however, refused to play ball.

"text": "\"Censorship and Secrecy, Social and Legal Perspectives International Encyclopedia of the Social and Behavioral Sciences, 2001. References | Back to Main Page Gary T. Marx Abstract: Secrecy and censorship involve norms about the control of information. Censorship of communication in the modern sense is associated with large, complex urban societies with a degree of centralized control and technical means of effectively reaching a mass audience. It involves a determination of what can, and can not, (or in the case of non-governmental efforts should and should not) be expressed in light of given political, religious, cultural, and artistic standards. The appearance of new communications (e.g., the printing press or the Internet) technologies invariably create demands from conflicting groups for greater openness and freedom of communication and demands for greater control. Authorities try (often in vain) to control new techniques of mass communication. Three major means of direct censorship (pre-publication review, licensing and registration, and government monopolization) are preventive in nature. Among democracies there is considerable variation in censorship by content, media of communication, place, time period and across societies. There are degrees of censorship and individual interests are balanced against those of the community, however hard the latter is to define. More common than outright prohibition, is the segmentation of material involving time, place and person restrictions."

"text": "Strategic and Long Range Planning I. Introduction Even with a good measure of hard work, dedication, and commitment, the management of any sizable enterprise requires planning and creativity. This point is even more evident in a franchise system due to the intricacies, importance, and sensitivity of the relationship between the franchisor and franchisee. Management is responsible for the successful operation of the system. Management is responsible for anticipating events, recognizing opportunities, organizing activities, directing the course, and controlling a variety of factors – ensuring that they function effectively and cohesively. A well-developed Strategic Plan can be essential to achieving those aims. Developing a Strategic Plan is no guarantee of success, nor can it assure the avoidance of failure. But failure is often caused by management’s inability to anticipate simple factors, or to take advantage of opportunities that could have been foreseen. Through the process of formulating a plan, issues and assumptions can be exposed to detailed formal scrutiny, early enough to make effective management possible. But, possessing a plan is inadequate for effective management when the planning process is viewed simply as an exercise and the document is not utilized as a tool for managing the business. Strategic plans can also be an essential tool in working with outsiders, including your bankers, investors, suppliers, and franchisees."

When measuring the performance of your B2B marketing program, what matters most is your cost-per-appointment for the initial sales appointment with the prospect, along with your eventual cost-per-sale, your revenue and your profitability. But if you choose a marketing strategy on the basis of its having the lowest cost-per-hour - or even the lowest cost-per-lead - you're begging for trouble. ( We won't even contemplate not holding Marketing accountable for revenue. ) The Fundamental Problem: The Definition of a Lead The problem with calculating your Marketing ROI starts with the definition of a sales lead. This is because over the past few years the term \"\"sales lead\"\" has become so mis-applied and diluted that it has practically lost all its meaning. The traditional list vendors will try to tell you that a name on a mailing list, or an email address, is a sales lead. The search engines will tell you that a click is a lead. The content people will tell you that someone who agrees to receive a White Paper or attend a Webinar is a sales lead. And the consultants will tell you that someone with budget, authority, need and timing is a lead."

Misappropriation in California California’s version of the Uniform Trade Secrets Act refers to the theft of trade secrets as misappropriation. Under California law, \"\"misappropriation \"\" refers to the acquisition of a trade secret by someone who knows or has reason to know that the trade secret was acquired by improper means -- theft, bribery, misrepresentation, breach or inducement of a breach of duty to maintain secrecy. It also includes the disclosure or use of a trade secret without consent by someone who used improper means to acquire knowledge of the trade secret – for example, an ex-employee who spills company secrets to a rival. Reason to Know California prohibits use of trade secrets by a company that has “has reason to know” that the material constitutes a trade secret."

"text": "Comping and Infringementby Linda Joy Kattwinkel, Esq. Q. I am a freelance graphic designer and I am struggling with ad agency clients who wish me to use copyrighted images from other companies as parts of their conceptual marketing layouts without permission. I know this is illegal and have told my client such. They wish to proceed anyway and take responsibility for this action. If I have this in writing, does that protect me if I do the work as they want it? A. “Comping” refers to the use of a photograph or illustration in a comprehensive layout for a new project, which is shown to a designer’s client in order to suggest the proposed direction for the new work. Although this is common practice in our industry, you are correct that reproducing an image for such comping without permission is illegal. Under copyright law, any person or entity involved in the unauthorized use of a copyrighted work, from the initial copying through publication and distribution, is liable for infringement. The only exceptions are for fair use. For a use to qualify as “fair use,” it must survive a multi-factor balancing test: 1."

The journalist bears responsibility before the society in general, before the law and before the professional association. The social responsibility of the journalist requires that he acts in accordance with his personal ethical standards. The ethics of the trade involve permanent responsibility of the journalist for everything he/she does in the framework of his/her professional obligations, rather than sticking to the rules which were established once and for all. The present Code shall set a high standard of ethical and professional behaviour for people involved in searching, receiving, keeping, distributing and commenting on information in the mass media. The norms of the Code are not obligatory requirements and formulated as moral guidelines or standards against which media employees can compare their professional work. The norms of the journalists Ethics Code cannot be used as the ground for holding media employees criminally, administratively, disciplinarily or otherwise responsible, except the responsibility in the framework of media self-regulation. Freedom of the press Mass media freedom is one of the major guarantees of the freedom of speech, an obligatory element for ensuring other civil rights and freedoms. The freedom of the press involves the possibility to freely discuss and criticize the activities of both the authorities and civil and private structures.

S. C. § 1030, is an amendment made in 1986 to the Counterfeit Access Device and Abuse Act that was passed in 1984 and essentially states that, whoever intentionally accesses a computer without authorization or exceeds authorized access, and thereby obtains information from any protected computer if the conduct involved an interstate or foreign communication shall be punished under the Act. In 1996 the CFAA was, again, broadened by an amendment that replaced the term “federal interest computer” with the term “protected computer.” 18 U. S. C. § 1030. While the CFAA is primarily a criminal law intended to reduce the instances of malicious interferences with computer systems and to address federal computer offenses, an amendment in 1994 allows civil actions to brought under the statute, as well. How the CFAA Works Types of Offenses (7 Prohibitions) There are seven types of criminal activity enumerated in the CFAA: obtaining national security information, compromising confidentiality, trespassing in a government computer, accessing to defraud and obtain value, damaging a computer or information, trafficking in passwords, and threatening to damage a computer. Attempts to commit these crimes are also criminally punishable. Protected Computer the term “protected computer” means a computer (1) exclusively for the use of a financial institution or the United States Government, or, in the case of a computer not exclusively for such use, used by or for a financial institution or the United States Government and the conduct constituting the offense affects that use by or for the financial institution or the Government; or (2) which is used in interstate or foreign commerce or communication, including a computer located outside the United States that is used in a manner that affects interstate or foreign commerce or communication of the United States.18 U. S. C. § 1030 In MBTA v. Anderson, No. 08-11364, (D. Mass. filed Aug. 19, 2008), Plaintiff claimed that defendants violated or threatened to violate the CFAA by releasing the findings of their research regarding the security holes associated with the MBTA fare charging system. The court found that a violation of the CFAA only occurs if the person knowingly causes the transmission of programmed information to a protected computer. Because the defendants in this case were only seeking to transmit information to a non-computer audience, the court found that the MBTA was not likely to succeed on a claim under the CFAA."

"text": "\"Basics of a Trade Secret Claim If you obtain or publish a company's trade secrets, the company may have a legal claim against you for trade secret misappropriation . Generally speaking, a \"\"trade secret\"\" is secret information that confers a competitive business advantage on its owner by virtue of not being known to its competitors. The trade secret owner must exert reasonable efforts to maintain the secrecy of this information, or it ceases to be a trade secret. When a person obtains a trade secret improperly (such as by theft, bribery, or breach of a confidentiality agreement) or publishes it, knowing that someone else acquired it improperly, he or she has \"\"misappropriated\"\" the trade secret. This is the legal wrong against which trade secrets law protects. Possible defenses against a misappropriation claim are discussed in the Publishing Trade Secrets section. State law governs trade secrets. Most U. S. states have adopted their own slightly modified version of the Uniform Trade Secret Act (UTSA) , so there is a good deal of uniformity among state laws on the subject. The discussion below is based on the UTSA. For state-specific information, please see the state pages ."

You don't have to be held Captive. You can still offer other products if AFLAC does not have them. You do not get a salaary, benefits or discounts on product. You do get wide use of the AFLAC name. That has been one of the best parts of working with them. The NASCAR promotions, TV, Radio and print ads are still all over the place. Every one knows the duck. Cons Some of the downsides are that people do not know what AFl AC is all about far as products are concerned. The think it is only disability."

I've heard that once you're pregnant, you can't apply for short term disability because it's considered a pre-existing condition. And I want to have my full three months off of work, but it would be under FMLA without pay, and I would have to use my sick/personal/vacation time, which is probably not that much time : (Please someone, shed some light on me Sort by: Oldest Newest 23 Posts R Feb 9, 2010 at 1:00 PMRadio Jen@Wish Come Tru Hi Erica, A pre-existing condition does not interfere with short term disability whatsoever. Your company will have specifics on what they cover (most are paid) but 99% of the time short term disability is coupled with FMLA leave. You are correct, the FMLA law allows up to 12 weeks unpaid job protection leave for you by law. Check with your human resources group or your manager regarding going negative in your paid time off hours, some companies will allow you to do that, in fact I will have to do that. I will take short term disability and take off as long as my doctor prescribes (typically 6-8 weeks). Our STD is 75% covered and I will use the rest of my paid time off to cover the difference, only problem is that our fiscal year ends June 1st so I can only carry over 40 hours, resulting in about 20 hours that need to be made up. Most of it will by that time but by my company allowing me to go \"\"negative\"\" in my PTO bank, my entire leave will be paid."

This supplemental insurance was designed to cover expenses not covered by traditional insurance, including travel and loss of income. In 1964 the company decided to focus on sales through the workplace, eventually through policies sponsored by employers and funded through payroll deductions. The same year the company changed its name to American Family Life Assurance Company of Columbus (AFLAC). By 1971 Aflac was operating in 42 states. In the 1970’s Aflac expanded to Japan.

Complications of pregnancy (hope you don't have any) are covered like a standard illness would be in your plan, subject to your waiting periods and so on. Note, bed rest without a medical classification is not considered a complication. Most people have the Aflac Short Term individual plans so a lot of the information by another post, I doubt seriously comes into play. Group is normally reserved to very large businesses. Possible, not probable since you were aware of the 10 month clause. After delivery the plans pay 5 weeks (6 less a waiting week) and 7 for a c-section."

"text": "+17votescar insuranceasked Aug 8, 2014 by anonymous Share onshare on gp share on fb share on tw share on li1 Answer0votes Aflac is a supplemental insurance company that provides a specialized type of coverage for individuals and their families. Instead of offering insurance of a standard type, Aflac sells medical and disability coverage that pays for lost income and costs associated with health insurance. Aflac is not a true insurance policy, such as health, life, or liability coverage, and is generally offered through group insurance plans as a secondary, optional coverage plan. Aflac does not provide auto insurance of any type, and does not offer supplemental coverage for auto insurance needs. What the company sells is coverage that pays for the costs associated with extended illnesses or disabilities. With an Aflac policy, you can receive income while out of work, and that income can be used for things such as paying your regular bills or providing for your family. You can think of Aflac coverage as offering minimal income while you are recovering. Aflac coverage is typically sold in conjunction with health insurance. Even then, it is not exactly health insurance coverage, and is purchased separately from your regular health insurance coverage. You may not be able to get Aflac coverage unless you have a standard health insurance policy, but it is sold as a rider policy instead of being part of the normal medical coverage."

"text": "\"How to Use Long-Term Care Insurance for Assisted Living Posted On 15 Oct 2015 By : Sarah Stevenson Tweet Pin It Just because your loved one’s long-term care insurance (LTCI) covers senior care doesn’t mean it will cover assisted living or memory care. Find out what to look for in an effective LTCI policy so you don’t get caught out when it’s time to shop for care. Long-Term Care Insurance Long-term care insurance is a debated topic — do just a little delving and you’ll find well-meaning advice from both wary LTCI opponents and staunch advocates of such policies. Whether you’re for it or against it, it’s out there, and plenty of senior Americans have chosen to hedge their bets and buy long-term care insurance in case they find themselves in need. The problem is, not all LTCI policies are alike. They have specific stipulations about what they cover and don’t cover, when benefits are paid out and how long they will pay for care. If you’re not fully versed in what a policy covers, you might find yourself caught out when it comes to paying for care. What Insurance Can be Used for Assisted Living? Researching long term care insurance is important as you don’t want an LTCI company telling you they won’t cover assisted living and you’ll have to pay out of pocket — even after decades of paying for a costly insurance policy. Yet, this is the unfortunate case for many individuals who purchased their insurance in the late 1980s and early 1990s, before the idea of assisted living became widespread, and before insurance policies became more comprehensive in their coverage of different types of long-term care."

"text": "What's all the quacking about? You may have health and motorcycle insurance, but is that enough? We�ve all heard the old clich� about there being only two types of riders: those who have crashed and those that will. Whether this is true or not, it points to an obvious fact of riding a motorcycle: motorcycling is an inherently risky mode of transportation, especially when compared to commuting while surrounded by three thousand pounds of steel (okay, mostly plastic these days, but you get my point). If you�re lucky, you have quality health insurance, and if you�re smart you will have plenty of motorcycle insurance, but is that enough? There are a number of riders who have no health insurance, some with just catastrophe cover (i.e. $1,500 deductible) and even if you do have full insurance there is surely some sort of deductible you'll need to pony up along the way. Health insurance will hopefully cover your hospital bills, and motorcycle insurance may fix your bike or any damage you happen to inflict to other persons and property. But, what would you do if you couldn�t pay your bills or work for a week, a month or even a year? This is where a personal accident indemnity plan, such as the one offered by AFLAC, comes into play. So, what is that duck quacking about in all those commercials?"

The Columbus, Georgia-based company fired Gilbert Gottfried less than an hour after discovering the tweets, according to a news release from Aflac. \"\" Gilbert's recent comments about the crisis in Japan were lacking in humor and certainly do not represent the thoughts and feelings of anyone at Aflac,\"\" Michael Zuna, the company's senior vice president and chief marketing officer, said in a statement.

Well, the easiest answer that I can provide for you is – yes, they are. However, there are many reasons why you should buy them over, for example, deep fryers and the health is not the main advantage that makes air fryers a better option. Furthermore, there are a lot of other things that you should ask before buying this product. But for now, let’s just focus on the issue of health benefits that air fryers provide. Understand the mechanism behind air fryers Air fryers do not use oil in order to fry food – this fact probably makes you wonder how it is done and how come that less oil means more health. First of all, the technology used to fry food in this kind of fryer is somewhat revolutionary and it involves hot air that circles around while the food is inside."

"text": "Deep Fryer vs. Air Fryer 2018: Which Is Best?12.1K Views 0 Shares 17 Comments By Kate Halse Apr 15, 2015 at 11:18am (Phillips)At first glance, deep fryers and air fryers seem quite similar. Both give regular food (such as veggies or pieces of meat) a delicious taste and crunchy exterior. However, the method a deep fryer uses (dunking food into a large amount of hot oil) is much different from that of an air fryer, which coats food with a little bit of oil then blasts it with hot air. If you love traditional fried food, the deep fryer could be your best bet. If you’re a bit more health conscious and want to achieve similar results without entirely giving up that distinctive fried taste and texture, an air fryer could be the optimal choice. Whether you’re shopping for a deep fryer or an air fryer, you’ve probably settled on a budget. You may also have considered certain features, such as easy portability or automatic temperature control. Comparing features, reliability over time, general healthiness, and other factors can help you narrow down the available deep fryers and air fryers to find what’s right for you. Be sure to browse our list of the best deep fryers for a wider selection.1. Deep Fryers vs. Air Fryers: Features For some consumers, a fryer’s features (or lack of features) can be the deciding factor."

White potatoes would be a close second choice. Russets were good, but took longer to cook and produced a more limp fry. Soak the raw cut fries in cold water for 30 minutes and then dry well. Sprinkle about 1 Tbsp. of oil on the fries before putting in the Airfryer and toss well to coat. Sprinkle with some salt before frying as well, to flavor fries as they cook. Toss fries well a couple of times during cooking to ensure even browning. Don’t make too large a batch (don’t over-fill the basket)."

"text": "Philips Air Fryer Review I recently purchased a Philips Air Fryer, mainly because I love chips and they can be cooked in these fryers virtually fat free. The process for cooking the chips is to cut up your potatoes into chips and then soak them for a while. Then you pat them dry and put them into a bowl and coat them with oil and season them to your liking. Drying them is important as the oil doesn't stick to wet potatoes. Apparently 1/2 tsp of oil is sufficient for a basket of chips, I cannot vouch for this as I sprayed mine with fry light instead, oil is off my menu! Then you simply put them in the fryers basket at the recommended temperature and shake them every 5 mins or so until they are ready (mine took about 15 mins but this varies on the thickness of the chips). Batch of chips made using Fry Lite The Air Fryer comes with a recipe book with lots of suggestions on how it can be used, as well as potatoes it is good for meat and fish etc. although I haven't tried this yet. I did however do some roasted vegetables in it, I coated the veg with Fry Lite in the same way as the chips, set the temperature to 180 degrees and checked and shook them every 5 minutes until they were ready. Roasted vegetables made using Fry Light The Verdict I paid £130 for my Airfryer after shopping around, although I do know people that have got them for £100 when they were on offer."

The Air Fryer is pretty much MADE for cooking chicken. Think crispy skin and succulent flesh? Delicious and made with just a touch of oil! Often when I am pressed for time (or at a loss for ideas), I toss a couple of marinated chicken wings as an add-on for dinner. But don’t be limited to just chicken wings – try chicken drumsticks, chicken thighs, and just this week, I popped the entire chicken into the Air Fryer."

It was launched at the Internationale Funk Ausstellung (IFA) consumer electronics show in Berlin in 2010. We think this might have made it the second competing appliance in the air fryer category after the Actifry (launched in 2007), excluding halogen convection countertop ovens. While Actifry has opted for a flying saucer shape, Philips has gone with an egg shape. As of 2014, there are two types of models of Philips Air Fryer: Viva (Classic), the original model with a capacity of 800 g (1.8 pounds), operates at 1425 watts and is available both in dial and digital models; and Avance XL models, larger and faster machines, which have a capacity of 1.2 kg / 3 litres / 3.2 US quarts, are digital only and run at a more powerful 2100 watts. All the frying baskets so far are solid black coated metal around the sides, with a mesh steel bottom. The coating does not appear to be Teflon. The basket rests in a basket holder. Grease drips down through the basket bottom into the basket holder."

The display made tantalizing promises: The Airfryer would cook with 80 percent less fat than conventional frying, making food that is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and possibly solve this whole Israel-Palestine thing while it is at it. I would make healthier wings for my Super Bowl party. Oh yes, I would. I quickly got my hands on an Airfryer and put it through its paces.

"text": "Do You Have to Pay Tax on Airline Miles? Written by Kevin Mulligan 7 Comments Share Tweet You’ve been earning rewards for signing up for a credit card or using it to earn airline miles. Are those miles now considered taxable income? You would think not, but some Citibank customers received a 1099-MISC for airline miles they were awarded for signing up for an account in 2011. These customers are understandably upset as there was no clear documentation as to the impact of accepting the extra miles. The Internal Revenue Service hasn’t been clear on how they treat airline miles, either. Some reports say taxpayers who fail to include the reported 1099-MISC income will not be pursued by the IRS, but do you really want to chance an audit over 20,000 airline miles? Are Airline Miles Taxable Income? Here are three different categories of earning airline miles and whether or not that method is considered taxable income. Travel Miles Associated with Credit Card Spending What seems relatively clear is that the miles you earn for using a credit card to purchase items or services are not considered taxable income."

"text": "\"If buying an airline ticket for yourself is exciting, imagine the thrill when you present an airline ticket as a gift to a friend or family member. ( And there’s no better way of getting people to visit than offering to pay their way – just saying.) Regardless of whether you’re paying for people to visit you or to take the vacation of their dreams somewhere else, you’ll need some personal information about them before you book the flight. Basic Information for Air Travel When you book a ticket for someone else, you’ll need to supply the same information for that traveler that you’d give when you book a ticket for yourself. At a bare minimum, that means her date of birth, full legal name (always ask – you might find out that someone you’ve known for years has been using a nickname) and country of residence. Depending on the ticket you’re buying, you might also need to supply an ID number or passport number (for international flights), although most airlines allow your passenger to fill in passport information after the ticket is purchased. You Might Want These Extras As more and more airlines transition to a la carte offerings, setting separate prices on anything that goes beyond the bare seat you’ve purchased, you’re left in the position of deciding which extras your giftee will enjoy. Of course, he can add his own extras later on – but if you’re providing the ticket, you might also want to pay for extra leg room, pre-ordered meals, priority boarding and checked bags (unless he can travel with nothing more than a carry-on that meets airline regulations ). If you’re really feeling generous, consider gifting him with TSA Pre Check or a similar fast-access program that helps passengers zip through security lines. Make Sure You Communicate As you can see, unless you know the person you’re gifting very well – or unless you want her to fend for herself when it comes to all those little extras that add up – a little pre-gift communication is in order."

"text": "Related Articles1What Are Fringe Benefits for an Employee?2How to Gross Up Non-Cash Fringe Benefits3How to Calculate Total Wages & Fringe Benefits4IRS Taxable Fringe Benefits for a Company Car The Internal Revenue Code allows you to receive fringe benefits from an employer that you can exclude from the gross income you report on a tax return. If you receive any of these nontaxable fringe benefits, regardless of whether it’s a cash payment, personal use of company property or an outright gift, your employer does not report them on your W-2 form. Tuition Reimbursements If your employer provides you with a tuition reimbursement for your educational expenses, you can exclude it from your gross income as long as the annual amount doesn’t exceed $5,250 and your employer has a written educational assistance program. Your employer’s assistance program must not provide owners of the company with more than 5 percent of the annual tuition reimbursements, favor highly-compensated employees or allow employees to choose other benefits in lieu of the tuition reimbursement. In addition, your employer must publicize its educational assistance program to all eligible employees. If even one of these requirements isn’t met, the IRS treats the reimbursement you receive as taxable income. Employer Lodging If your employer provides you with free housing, you can exclude the housing value from your gross income if your employer satisfies certain requirements. The lodging must always be on the employer’s premises, acceptance of the on-site housing is a condition of your employment and there must be a business reason for providing the lodging, which means the housing is solely for the convenience of your employer and not yours. De Minimis Benefits There are some fringe benefits your employer may provide that have such little value that the IRS doesn’t require them to be accounted for in your W-2. This typically includes the infrequent meals and transportation your employer pays for when you work overtime, infrequent personal use of company equipment such as copiers or telephones, and the holiday parties your employer caters for you and your colleagues."

However, in recent years I've focused much of my travel on Delta and I've come to know the Sky Miles program fairly well.

Remember, airlines offer these programs to keep you loyal and most airlines reward that loyalty in a variety of ways. This article will focus on Sky Miles.

"text": "Will Credit Card Rewards Soon Be Classified as Taxable Income?by Michael Dolen Reading Time: 4 minutes What’s considered taxable income? Just about anything you can think of, according to this list on the IRS website. However one thing you will find notably absent are credit card rewards. At least for now, but will that soon change? The reason credit card rewards have typically not been counted as taxable income is because they are viewed as a rebate. For example, if you spend $100 with a card that gives 1% cash back, the $1 you receive is merely a rebate on the money you spent. That’s the same reason why manufacturer mail-in-rebates aren’t counted as taxable income, either. Both scenarios are usually viewed as price adjustments, not income or free money. What has the IRS previously said about this? Not much has been officially published about the tax treatment of credit card rewards."

"text": "Best Airline Credit Cards With Bonus Miles (2018)An airline credit card that gives you airline miles or points whenever you use your card is an unbeatable option for the avid traveler. Broadly speaking, such credit cards can be divided into two categories: (1) credit cards co-branded with specific airlines, and (2) credit cards not aligned with specific airlines. For the first group, co-branded airline credit cards let you earn miles which are credited directly into your account with that airline's frequent flyer program. For the second group, such credit cards offer flexibility in the sense that the reward points you earn can either be used to offset your travel purchases, or be transferred to frequent flyer programs of your choice. I used both types of airline credit cards to help me reach my One Million Air Miles goal in 2016 which I used to redeem for US$54,000 worth of air tickets.

Basic Membership Benefits include: Ability to earn and use points Delta Sky Miles is the most basic form of the airline's loyalty program, offering members 5 miles for every dollar spent on a Delta, Delta Connection or Delta Shuttle trip; Sky Miles members can also earn rewards by traveling with one of Delta's partner airlines or purchasing travel-related services through any of the airline's hotel, cruise or ground transportation affiliates. But that is the extent of basic program benefits. If you book a basic economy fare, you will not know your seat assignment before check-in. As you accrue frequent flyer miles, you will also earn Medallion Qualification Miles, which you will need to achieve Medallion status. In addition to frequent travel, you will also need to spend a certain amount of money to achieve Medallion status – the amount you need to spend for each elite level is measured in Medallion Qualification Dollars. Silver Medallion Benefits include: Ability to earn and use points Free checked bags Priority boarding/seating Free cabin upgrades Once you've earned 25,000 Medallion Qualification Miles (or have flown 30 Medallion qualifying flight segments) and spent $3,000 Medallion Qualification Dollars, you will become a Silver Medallion member. As a Silver member, you will have access to such perks as free checked baggage, priority boarding and complimentary upgrades.

"text": "\"Based on the employee-employer relationship, most gifts that you give to your employees are presumed to be compensatory in nature. What this means is that unless you can show that a gift is connected with an event that's totally unrelated to your business (for example, you attend an employee's wedding), gifts to your employees are considered taxable wages for payroll tax purposes. Gifts of property are treated no differently from monetary gifts. There is an exception to the rule during the Christmas holiday season. Christmas gifts are not considered taxable wages only if the gifts are items of property having nominal value (for example, a turkey or a ham). However, this exception is limited to property and does not apply to gifts of cash, no matter how nominal. Payroll Tax Obligations for Performance-Related Awards and Prizes Employee prizes and awards are generally considered taxable wages, on the theory that you present them in return for an employee's performance or services. However, there is an exception from the general rule. There are three limited circumstances under which you may be relieved from payroll tax obligations on noncash awards: Employee achievement awards of tangible personal property that are awarded to an employee because of the employee's length of service (including retirement), productivity, or safety achievement, made under a written plan that does not discriminate in favor of highly compensated employees, and which average $400 or less during the year, are not taxable wages. They are considered \"\"qualified\"\" plan awards."

"text": "Identifying and Reporting Employee Fringe Benefits Payment Processing Article12/23/2013What are fringe benefits? Fringe benefits are a form of pay, often from employers to employees, and considered compensation for services beyond the employee's normal rate of pay. They can be made in the form of property, services, cash, or cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are things that can be turned into cash fairly quickly, such as savings bonds. Generally, fringe benefits are taxable to the employee, must be included as supplemental income on the employee's W-2, and are subject to withholding and employment taxes. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) provides guidance on fringe benefits in a publication titled, Employer's Tax Guide to Fringe Benefits For use in 2013. It’s important for employers to distinguish between taxable fringe benefits and nontaxable fringe benefits so they can understand how they are valued and report them properly. Examples of taxable fringe benefits Bonuses Vacation, athletic club membership, or health resort expenses Value of the personal use of an employer-provided vehicle Amounts paid to employees for moving expenses in excess of actual expenses Business frequent-flyer miles converted to cash Group term life insurance provided to employees in excess of $50,000Examples of fringe benefits excluded from gross income Employer-provided spending accounts such as medical flexible spending accounts and dependent care accounts Payments made on employees' behalf for public transportation to and from work and parking while at work Up to $5,000 paid by the employer for child- or dependent-care services Group term life insurance provided to employees, up to $50,000No-additional-cost services such as complimentary flights for airline employees Employee discounts Working condition fringe benefits such as the use of company vehicles Tuition reduction De minimis fringe benefits such as employee use of office equipment, holiday gifts, parties or picnics, and entertainment events. In this category the value of the property should be considered minimal Athletic facilities primarily used by employees, if located at the place of employment Retirement planning services Adoption assistance program Use of business frequent flyer miles for personal travel Moving expense reimbursements for actual costs paid or incurred Valuing fringe benefits The general rule for placing a value on a fringe benefit is to use the fair market value of the benefit given. In many cases, the fair market value and the cost of the item are the same."

It sounds cliche, but it's true. At one point, I had been out of the country every summer for six years, including a six-month stay in Europe that included the ubiquitous backpack. ( See also: The Cheapest Way to Fly to Europe)Now that I have a family, traveling is a lot more expensive, and airfare is a huge chunk of that. I haven't given up on future trips, though, because there are so many ways to get free tickets these days. Below are some of the ideas that have worked for me or for people I know.1. Volunteer to Get Bumped If you've flown at all, you probably know this drill. A flight gets overbooked, and so the gate agent asks for people to give up their seats in exchange for some sort of incentive. Often, that incentive is a voucher for a free or discounted ticket in the future. When you volunteer, they will usually book you through on another flight, so you still have a guaranteed way to get wherever you're going.2."

Doug Parker says, however, that American's buttoned-down, corporate culture will be the perfect complement to his scrappy US Airways, where \"\"we sometimes fire before we're ready. \"\" MAIN STORY: US Airways begins its fade into history NEW BOOKMARK: Add Today in the Sky to your aviation favorites At his spartan, temporary office in American's Fort Worth headquarters, the longtime US Airways CEO sat down for a wide-ranging interview with The Associated Press. Parker talked about the merger, the government's attempt to block the deal, looming competition from foreign airlines, and the public's perception of air travel. The answers have been edited for length and clarity.____Q: Do you see a gap widening between people in first- or business-class and leisure travelers in the back of the plane? Parker: No, I don't necessarily. You described it as the front versus the back, and the reality is all the seats in coach are not the same, and customers prefer certain ones over others and are willing to pay more either through loyalty or just paying more for a ticket in order to get a better seat in the coach cabin. I don't see a gap first versus coach as being a major change going forward. Q: What are your biggest challenges in making this merger work? Parker: It's two complex organizations that need to be melded into one over time."

"text": "\"Credit Cards · Credit Card News · Watch out for fuel surcharges on reward flights Watch out for fuel surcharges on reward flights Airline fees devalue BA's credit card sign-up bonus By Cathleen Mc Carthy | Published: February 14, 2013Credit cards that offer travel rewards can be a convenient way to save up for an international trip. But beware the fuel surcharge, a fee imposed by some international airlines. If you're not careful, you could end up paying hundreds of dollars more than you expected for that rewards ticket to Europe. Fuel surcharges are not a rewards issue when you're paying money for flights -- you earn as many points for the dollars spent on fuel as for the rest of the flight. But they become a serious consideration when you're cashing in miles for free travel, because you can't use points for the surcharges. You have to pay cash -- sometimes hundreds of dollars' worth. One of the clearest examples of this comes from British Airways. The Chase British Airways Visa card has one of the most generous sign-up bonuses for would-be world travelers: 100,000 Avios points on offer through February. It appears at first to be a no-brainer: that's usually enough points for two free round-trip coach tickets to Europe, just for taking on a credit card. U. S.-based passengers should look carefully before they leap, however."

"text": "\"This post contains references to products from one or more of our advertisers. We may receive compensation when you click on links to those products. For an explanation of our Advertising Policy, visit this page. While most of the time we talk about airline miles in terms of award flights and how to get the most value out of them, many airlines actually let you use your miles for non-flight travel redemptions as well including car rentals, hotel stays, and packages. I don’t tend to think about those options much, but this article in one of last week’s Wall Street Journal issues pointed out that elite flyers often get preferential rates when it comes to mileage redemptions for hotel stays and car rentals, and that it’s easier than ever to use your miles for them, so I thought I’d take a look at the options myself and see what kinds of values you can get from your miles if you choose to redeem them for non-flight travel awards. Though the value you get from these redemptions isn’t always the best – usually around the 1 cent per mile mark, or even less in some cases – it’s still good to have the option in case you are all stocked up on miles but low on cash. What you might not know, however, is that having elite status can get you a lot more value for your miles – sometimes double or more – since airlines offer their elite frequent flyers preferential mileage redemption rates on these types of awards. So for today’s Maximize Monday, I thought I’d take a look at the rates you get when using miles from American, Delta and United to book non-air travel, as well as the boost in value you get as an elite member. Keep in mind, you’re still getting values of about 1.2 cents per mile at best, even as an elite, so these aren’t your super-premium high-value awards, but if you’re looking to save some cash (and some miles thanks to elite status), these could be something to consider. If you have elite status with several airlines, then definitely cross-check the hotel/car/package you want across their sites and see which one will give you the best deal."

"text": "Travel | Practical Traveler Plane Tickets: Buy Early or Wait? By MICHELLE HIGGINS MARCH 23, 2011BUYING an airline ticket is always something of a gamble — prices go up and down, and trying to figure out how far in advance to book to get the best fare can be tricky. Recent world events have been causing oil prices — a major factor in ticket prices — to fluctuate, making the calculation of when to buy even more challenging. Earlier this month, the price of a barrel of oil, which had skyrocketed to as high as $104 in response to events in Libya and the Middle East, dropped below $100 a barrel when disaster hit Japan. So far this year airlines have raised rates six times, compared with just three increases last year, partly to keep pace with rising oil prices, according to Farecompare.com, which tracks ticket prices. Overall, fares are up about 18 percent for travel in late May through early June, compared with the same period last year, according to Bing Travel, which offers predictions on whether fares will go up, down or hold steady on a given route. On certain routes, prices are particularly volatile. From Seattle, a round-trip United Airlines flight to London in mid-March that cost $718 on Feb. 15 jumped 35 percent to $966, just four days later, according to Yapta.com. Later that month it dropped to $772, and by March 13 it was back up to $976.“It’s always a quagmire,” said Joel Frey, a spokesman for Travelocity.com. “ There will be fare sales, but it’s hard to predict those."

"text": "Illustration: Unsplash We get asked this question all the time, and we’ve heard many competing views. But if you’re thinking about planning a winter getaway, you may be wondering the same thing we at Barron’s Next often have: when should I book my ticket? As soon as possible? Or is there a better day to do it? Here’s the definitive answer: The best time to book an airline ticket is Tuesday afternoon, when most airlines have matched fare sales from competitors. Here’s why: Airline officials come to work on Monday and decide what airfares should be (based on how seats sold over the weekend). Tuesday morning, every airline finds out what competitors are charging for routes and they can start adjusting fares. All this settles down by the afternoon. So if you want to get a sale fare, “the best time is Tuesday afternoon at 3 p.m.,” says Fare Compare CEO Rick Seaney. This pricing scenario has long been true, says fare consultant Bob Harrell, who has studied fare dynamics for years."

"text": "Why airlines can charge sky-high fuel fees even though oil prices are low Adam Pasick November 18, 2014Less pressure at the pump. ( AP Photo/Ric Francis)These are happy days for the once-downtrodden airline industry: Profits are high and costs are low, particularly the price of oil, which is the industry’s biggest expense. But that’s no consolation to flyers. Despite assurances from the industry that cost savings are on the way, the average airline ticket is getting more expensive, due in no small part to fuel surcharges that can cost more than the actual flights. One-way domestic US coach fares are up 1.7% in the year to September, according to Bloomberg. Jet fuel prices have fallen by about 15% over the same period. Here’s a round-trip flight on Delta from Los Angeles to London (Dec. 5-12), with a fuel surcharge of $458, nearly half of the $947.10 total fare. The data comes from Google’s ITA software; fuel surcharges are coded as “YR.”A similar trip from New York to London, which would presumably burn less fuel since it’s about 2,000 miles shorter, has the exact same fuel surcharge: What’s going on here? The short answer is that fuel surcharges, introduced by many airlines in the early 2000s as the price of oil was on the rise, don’t bear much relation to how much fuel actually costs. Put another way, they are arbitrary numbers that the industry adjusts to maximize their profits while staying competitive with other carriers."

You'll usually pay more than a standard flight for a Flexifare ticket, but as you'll get the flexibility to switch dates, so long as it's cheaper than the cost of a peak time standard ticket you win."

"text": "Spirit Airlines Everything You Need to Know About Spirit Airlines By Tiff | August 22, 2014204shares Share Tweet Share Share233 comments There have been some changes with Spirit since my post back in January so I wanted to give everyone the latest updates and try to clear up the most common questions I get. Granted, Spirit has a lot of hoops to jump through so I’m probably not going to get to everything; so feel free to keep asking in the comments if I didn’t cover something or wasn’t as clear as I could have been!What Happens in a Flight Cancellation or Bad Weather? I recently did a Google search on Spirit and I saw some websites that claim Spirit doesn’t or can’t move you to flights with other airlines if there’s a delay. Spirit Airlines has the same policies as any other carrier I’ve been on in the U. S. If there’s a mechanical issue; they will move you to a different flight on a different airline to help you make it to your destination on time. Even with severe weather issues Spirit was very accommodating letting people change their flights and waiving the change fees and the price difference in flights. Buy Your Tickets at the Airport Buying your tickets at the airport. Spirit charges $16.99 per ticket each way for buying tickets online. So for one round-trip ticket that’s a $33.98 fee. For us, it’s still a savings to go to the airport to buy the ticket even if it’s just for one person; but I try to get as many as possible in one trip to DFW if I know we have multiple flights coming up. DFW is one of their hubs; so their ticket counter is open approximately 22 hours a day, 7 days a week (it’s closed from about 1:30 – 3:30 a.m. daily)."

"text": "\"\"\"You can't have paid less than me, you booked a week later,\"\" said one Easyjet passenger to the friend seated next to her. As the pair waited at Venice's Marco Polo airport for their flight home, the woman who had paid more for her ticket became increasingly annoyed. Her friend must have got the figure wrong, she insisted. Like many of us, she had assumed that prices only go up as the date of departure nears. But BBC research suggests we may need to reassess some of the things we think we know about air fares. Prices on routes from London to major European cities including Rome, Barcelona and Berlin on three major airlines were monitored every day for six weeks. ' Low-cost airline' means an airline whose costs are low, not necessarily an airline whose fares are low Simon Calder, Travel journalist The findings show that fares can actually fall and then rise a number of times during the period leading up to a flight. The price of a Ryanair flight from London to Rome in the middle of April, for example, fell on six separate occasions in the six weeks before departure. You could therefore have saved money by waiting for a day or so, and in a couple of cases, the saving was quite substantial. Between 14 and 15 March, the price fell from £40.14 to £28.14."

However, as much as I positively adore shelter dogs, I have to say that if you are planning on purchasing an Akita that you should go to a reputable breeder who is also breeding for temperament. This means that your breeder will not \"\"only\"\" have AKC registered dogs, but she will be showing those dogs regularly, they will be health tested (and will be able to provide you with evidence that the line is clear from hip/elbow/knee issues as well as whatever other genetic issues run in the Akita - and ALL purebred dogs have genetic issues), you should be able to meet the dam (and preferably the sire but this is not always possible) and you should be able to call up references from that breeder (ie: people who have owned her dogs and currently own her dogs). Temperament is key when you have a child in the house and you want to make sure that your breeder will pretty much guarantee the dog's temperament in as much as you, the new owner, keep up your part of the deal as far as training and socialization are concerned. Good luck!Source (s):vet tech canine nutritionist multiple dogs over the years in agility, obedience, conformation and sporting events Anonymous · 9 years ago2 1 Comment Asker's rating With a small child and a small Chi, an Akita at this point I would not recommend without intensive training before adapting to the family. Akita's are wonderful dogs, however I would think this over carefully before getting into something to much to handle with your young family. The Akita is of course well known for aggressive protection of families and with proper training could be a great dog. They just don't like much outside the family like other dogs and strangers intruding on their personal space. I have a friend who has one and is well trained and loves his family."

Hard to tell from the photo how big she is - she's lying down and there's nothing next to her to provide perspective - but she doesn't appear to be abnormally small.

He is a wonderful family companion, but above all else, generations of strong instinct is there that make him a protector. Anything or anyone seen as a possible threat will invoke a reaction, this can vary from growling to biting. Now, with this said, Akitas and children can have a truly wonderful bond. This will depend on several factors: • How he is raised • At what age introduction is done • The behavior and actions of the kids • The individual temperament of the Akita In the Same House This breed can and often does very well with children who live in the same household. He makes a clear distinction between those he considers to be part of the family and those he does not. Therefore, it is not fair to the breed when someone makes a generalizing comment that harmony cannot exist. It is dependent on the situation.

Super …Price: $3500Location: Gap, PABreed: Pomeranian View All Ads Next There are two different schools of thought when it comes to having a dog around when you have an infant or toddler in the house. One thought is to raise a child and a puppy together, and the other group recommends waiting until the child is a bit older so that the child can be involved in selecting a dog to make it truly theirs. Another important consideration is the amount of time that is actually involved in raising and training a puppy. This is an important consideration when parents are already stretched with trying to care for a newborn or infant in the house. Puppies will require housetraining, obedience training and lots of love and attention in order to adjust to life at a new house. One of the biggest issues is that puppies, like infants, are going to require some level of round the clock supervision, especially when you are housetraining. When puppies and infants are in the house together often the puppy's training is put on the back burner, resulting in poor socialization of the puppy that can impact the dog's temperament and behavior throughout their life. Toddlers and puppies are not typically a good combination for a variety of reasons."

"text": "\"Pets Dogs What was Helen Kellers dogs name? Follow 18 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Hellen Keller's dog name is Kamikaze-go. When Keller visited Akita Prefecture in Japan in July 1937, she inquired about Hachikō, the famed Akita dog that had died in 1935. She told a Japanese person that she would like to have an Akita dog; one was given to her within a month, with the name of Kamikaze-go. When he died of canine distemper, his older brother, Kenzan-go, was presented to her as an official gift from the Japanese government in July 1939. Keller is credited with having introduced the Akita to the United States through these two dogs. By 1938 a breed standard had been established and dog shows had been held, but such activities stopped after World War II began. Keller wrote in the Akita Journal: “ If ever there was an angel in fur, it was Kamikaze. I know I shall never feel quite the same tenderness for any other pet. The Akita dog has all the qualities that appeal to me — he is gentle, companionable and trusty."

The relationship between humans and dogs is believed to have first formed between 18,800 and 32,100 years ago when a group of wolves first came into contact with European hunter-gatherers. While those early breeds of dogs have died out, many modern breeds have survived for thousands of years. The following list contains 8 of the oldest dog breeds in the world, all of which remain as popular pets with today’s people.8. Chow Chow Year: Circa 150 – 200 B. C.

A recently discovered bas-relief, dated to the Han Dynasty (around 150 – 200 B. C.), depicts a hunting dog that is similar in appearance to the Chow Chow. In its home country, Chow Chows are called Songshi Quan, which means “puffy-lion dog. ”The breed is known for blue-black tongue, which extends to its lips, making it the only breed where the blue-black color is present in its lips and oral cavity. Although Chow Chows have a reputation for being aggressive toward people, early and frequent socialization will produce a dog that is loyal and well behaved. Chow Chows are a popular breed and many famous people have kept them as pets, including Sigmund Freud, Elvis Presley, Martha Stewart, and Calvin Coolidge7."

Below is a list of the most popular large dog breeds, although not comprehensive, it should give you a good starting pointing on the various types of breeds: Labrador Retriever German Shepherd Golden Retriever Poodle Rottweiler Doberman Pinscher German Shorthaired Pointer Weimaraner Bernese Mountain Dog Vizsla Collie Rhodesian Ridgeback Akita Chesapeake Bay Retriever Bloodhound Airedale Terrier Alaskan Malamute Dalmatian German Wirehaired Pointer Belgian Malinois Irish Setter Old English Sheepdog Bouvier Des Flandres English Setter Flat Coated Retriever Afghan Hound Giant Schnauzer Gordon Setter Greyhound"

"text": "Can I Give My Dog Meat?37 Amazing Comments Eating meat is obviously very natural for dogs. So, when your carnivorous canine begs you for a piece of juicy protein-packed animal flesh, it’s logical to want to share. Fido can handle rationed chicken, turkey, lamb and beef. Many owners, for good reason, view meats as superior to kibble. Perhaps you don’t think highly of most commercial dog foods. That’s understandable, but a strict meat diet is also debatable. The case can be made from an evolutionary standpoint, but premium dog food has considerably improved. This is a juicy topic!Can I Give My Dog Some Meat? Answer: Yes, with some restrictions It’s a big part of what makes hounds happy and healthy. We still favor a high quality grain-free dog food for reasons we’ll explain."

Yes, I'm totally dogist against non-Japanese dogs (okay, Chow Chows and Malamutes are alright). On top of that, small dogs freak me out (so puntable). There are a couple of problems with loving Japanese dogs, though. First, many breeds are very rare even in Japan, which makes them expensive and, well, rare. The other problem is that if you can't find one in the country you live importing them is full of its own problems. In some cases it's impossible. So, for now I'll just have to share with you my love for Japanese dogs via the internets. Yes there will be some puppies."

Estimated numbers left in the wild: 20,000 adults. Fun fact: Wandering albatrosses can eat to such excess at times that they are unable to fly and have to rest helplessly on the water. Description Vast and graceful, the wandering albatross spreads its wings towards the south like the biblical hawk, cruising the skies of the southern hemisphere on pinions that spread up to 3.5 meters, the largest wingspan found in any living bird. These albatrosses measure 1.1 meters long and can weigh 10 kilograms. Their snowy white feathers and black and white wings give them a handsome appearance, especially contrasted with the deep blue of the ocean, while their beaks are long, sturdy, and yellowish, adapted for snapping up prey. The wandering albatross is superbly adapted for soaring flight despite its large size, and can glide for hours before it needs to beat its wings to regain height. When not breeding, these birds spend all their time at sea, far from even the limited land of an island. They sleep on the water’s surface and spend the days gliding and flying in search of food.

"text": "\"Print PDF of Section or Chapter Legislation Lacey Act - Feather Trade The fashion of wearing bird feathers in women’s hats began in the court of Louis XVI of France when Marie Antoinette appeared in a headdress with feather plumes (Doughty 1975). The fashion gradually spread in Europe and later in the colonies of the United States. By 1850, the business of killing birds for the millinery trade was practiced on a large scale, involving the deaths of hundreds of thousands of birds in many parts of the world. Egrets were a prime target, especially birds in breeding plumage when their most elegant plumage was displayed. Hunters killed adult birds, leaving the chicks to die in the scorching sun. Sometimes feathers were pulled from wounded birds, which were left to die of exposure or starvation. Herons and other wading birds along the east coast and in the Everglades were slaughtered in huge numbers. Songbirds were also popular, and entire birds were stuffed and exhibited on the hats of Victorian women. The plumage of terns and gulls was commonly used, and entire breeding colonies numbering more than 10,000 birds were killed. One New York woman negotiated in 1884 with a Parisian millinery to deliver 40,000 or more bird skins; she hired gunners to kill as many terns as possible at ten cents a skin (Doughty 1975)."

"text": "\"Protecting our native plants & animals“It is the nearest thing to studying life on another planet\"\" Jared Diamond, author, physiologist, evolutionary biologist and bio-geographer, on New Zealand’s native plants and animals. Uniquely New Zealand Due to its long geological isolation since breaking away from the supercontinent Gondwana about 80 million years ago, New Zealand’s plant and animal life has developed down a unique evolutionary path. Many of our native plants and animals are endemic – that is, found nowhere else in the world. The level of endemism among New Zealand plants and animals is one of the highest in the world. The tuatara, moa, kiwi, kokako, saddleback, huia, kakapo, native frogs and giant carnivorous land snails are just some of the species that are unique to New Zealand. This isolation in the absence of mammalian predators for millions of years also meant that many of our native species were virtually defenceless against attack – for example, many of our native birds like the kiwi are flightless and nest on the ground. When humans – first Maori and then European settlers - arrived in New Zealand, introduced mammals came with them: rats, possums, stoats, ferrets, weasels, deer, pigs, mice, cats, dogs and others. These introduced species quickly took a heavy toll as they preyed and browsed on New Zealand’s largely defenceless native species, or competed with them. Human activities such as felling and burning vegetation and draining wetlands also destroyed much of the native species’ habitats. Native species such as the moa, huia, and the world’s largest-ever eagle, the Haast’s eagle, the South Island kokako and many others became extinct."

"text": "Published: December 2007Wings of the Albatross On the Wings of the Albatross By Carl Safina Photograph by Frans Lanting An albatross is the grandest living flying machine on Earth. An albatross is bone, feathers, muscle, and the wind. An albatross is its own taut longbow, the breeze its bowstring, propelling its projectile body. An albatross is an art deco bird, striking of pattern, clean of line, epic in travels, heroically faithful. A parent albatross may fly more than 10,000 miles (16,000 kilometers) to deliver one meal to its chick. Wielding the longest wings in nature—up to eleven and a half feet (3.5 meters)—albatrosses can glide hundreds of miles without flapping, crossing ocean basins, circumnavigating the globe. A 50-year-old albatross has flown, at least, 3.7 million miles (6 million kilometers). If people know the albatross at all, most harbor vague impressions of an ungainly, burdensome creature, derived from Samuel Taylor Coleridge's 1798 poem, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner. Turns out, Coleridge never saw an albatross. Also turns out, most people haven't read the poem."

Fortunately for travelers everywhere, the Galapagos Islands aren't one of those places. Thanks to their remote position that straddles the equator, the Galapagos are a joy to tour no matter when you go. Still, there are some considerations to keep in mind in regards to the advantages of choosing one time to visit over another. ' High' Season versus 'Low' Season Most travel agencies would agree that the low season for the Galapagos occurs during the following months: April, May, September and October. These are the less busy times for the Islands, which may make a tour cheaper and more enjoyable for you. If you need to or would prefer to travel outside the low season, be advised that many hotels/boats/services/etc. will be filled well in advance, so make sure you plan ahead, too. The sooner the better, because if you wait until too close to your leave date, you might wind up with an itinerary or accommodations that you like, but don't love. Climate/Weather No time of year is too hot or too cold to enjoy the Galapagos, but the climate is not exactly the same throughout."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Shrimp bycatch Bycatch, in the fishing industry, is a fish or other marine species that is caught unintentionally while catching certain target species and target sizes of fish, crabs etc. Bycatch is either of a different species, the wrong sex, or is undersized or juvenile individuals of the target species. The term \"\"bycatch\"\" is also sometimes used for untargeted catch in other forms of animal harvesting or collecting. In 1997, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) defined bycatch as \"\"total fishing mortality, excluding that accounted directly by the retained catch of target species\"\". [ 1] Bycatch contributes to fishery decline and is a mechanism of overfishing for unintentional catch. [ 2]The average annual bycatch rate in the U. S. from 1990 to 1999 was 6215 with standard error of 448. [ 3]The fisherman bycatch issue originated due to the “mortality of dolphins in tuna nets in the 1960s” [4]There are at least four different ways the word \"\"bycatch\"\" is used in fisheries: [5]Catch which is retained and sold but which is not the target species for the fishery Species/sizes/sexes of fish which fishermen discard [6]Non-target fish, whether retained and sold or discarded [7]Unwanted invertebrate species, such as echinoderms and non-commercial crustaceans, and various vulnerable species groups, including seabirds, sea turtles, marine mammals and elasmobranchs (sharks and their relatives).

"text": "The Galapagos Islands Guide: What You Should Know When to go, what to see, what to pack and more. Pinterest Facebook Twitter Email Related To: Outdoors and Adventure Travel's Best The Galapagos Islands are a bucket-list destination for good reason: Thanks to a lack of natural predators, friendly wildlife such as playful sea lions and gigantic sea tortoises let visitors get up close and personal. This archipelago of about 19 islands and many smaller islets sprinkled 620 miles off Ecuador’s coast in the Pacific Ocean is a double World Heritage site (both land and sea are protected) and served as the inspiration for Charles Darwin’s Theory of Evolution. Each island boasts its own unique landscape, ranging from barren black, volcanic rocks to swaths of white sand beaches melting into gemstone-blue waters. When to Go Thinkstock This depends on what you’re looking to experience. Busiest months for tourism tend to be June, July and August, as well as mid-December to mid-January (prices are often highest at these times as well). The hot, rainy season of December through May is when the ocean is the calmest, daily rains give way to mostly-sunny skies, and temperatures are in the 80s. The cooler, dryer season is June through November, thanks to the Humboldt Current which brings chilly water and cooler temperatures (in the 70s). Though the seas are rougher, experienced divers believe it’s the best time to visit because colder water attracts even more fantastic marine life (such as big schools of hammerhead sharks). It’s also when visitors have a better chance of spotting legendary whale sharks at Wolf and Darwin islands."

The albatross sustained this speed for more than 8 hours while returning to its nest at Bird Island, South Georgia, in the middle of an Antarctic storm. The report was published by the Paulo Catry, Richard A. Phillips and John P. Croxall of the British Antarctic Survey, Natural Environmental Research Council (The Auk 121 (4):1208-1213, 2004). Also known as the grey-headed mollymawk, the albatross nests in very southerly locations and feeds farther south than any other bird of its kind. According to “Bird Families of the World,” the grey-headed albatross averages 81 cm (32 in) long and possesses a 2.2 m (7 ft 2 in) wingspan.

"text": "SHORT-TAILED ALBATROSSAN ENDANGERED SPECIES“…a good south wind sprung up behind; The Albatross did follow And every day, for food or play, Came to the mariners’ hollo!” from the Rime of the Ancient Mariner As described in this famous poem by Samuel Taylor Coleridge, sailors have long considered the albatross to be a good omen. Early ocean explorers believed that sighting a bird meant land was nearby. There undoubtedly were many disappointed, land-hungry sailors though, because the albatross is a pelagic, or open-ocean, species that may not set foot on land for many years at a time. Albatross have been described as “nomads of the oceans”. Description and Range Short-tailed albatross are very large, alabaster birds with egg-yolk-yellow crowns, pink bills, and yellow feet. Their wingspan can reach to 13 feet (three meters) and they may weigh as much as 25 pounds (11 kilograms). One would hardly think that the small, chocolate brown, baby short-tailed albatross would grow up to look so different. Historically, the short-tailed albatross bred on a number of Japanese islands, and its range extended to most of the north Pacific Ocean. In the 19th century, the short-tailed albatross was common in the north Pacific."

Bouvet Island ( Norwegian: Bouvetøya [bu.ˈʋɛ.øj.ɑ] [1] [2]) is an uninhabited subantarctic high island and dependency of Norway located in the South Atlantic Ocean at 54°25.8′S 3°22.8′ECoordinates: 54°25.8′S 3°22.8′E, thus putting it north of and outside the Antarctic Treaty System. It lies at the southern end of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and is the most remote island in the world, approximately 2,600 kilometres (1,600 mi) south-southwest of the coast of South Africa and approximately 1,700 kilometres (1,100 mi) north of the Princess Astrid Coast of Queen Maud Land, Antarctica. The island has an area of 49 square kilometres (19 sq mi), of which 93 percent is covered by a glacier. The centre of the island is an ice-filled crater of an inactive volcano. Some skerries and one smaller island, Larsøya, lie along the coast. Nyrøysa, created by a rock slide in the late 1950s, is the only easy place to land and is the location of a weather station. The island was first spotted on 1 January 1739 by Frenchman Jean-Baptiste Charles Bouvet de Lozier, after whom it was later named. He recorded inaccurate coordinates and the island was not sighted again until 1808, when the British whaler captain James Lindsay named it Lindsay Island. [ 3] The first claim of landing, although disputed, was by American sailor Benjamin Morrell."

"text": "\"Science & Mathematics Geography What is the population of a coral reef?the population of a coral reef Follow 4 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Corals are colonies of tiny living animals found in marine waters containing few nutrients. Most coral reefs are built from stony corals, and are formed by polyps that live together in groups. The polyps secrete a hard carbonate exoskeleton which provides support and protection for the body of each polyp. Reefs grow best in warm, shallow, clear, sunny and agitated waters. Often called “rainforests of the sea”, coral reefs form some of the most diverse ecosystems on earth. They occupy less than 1% of the world ocean surface, about half the area of France, yet they provide a home for 25% of all marine species, including fishes, molluscs, echinoderms and sponges. Biodiversity Reefs are also home to a large variety of other organisms, including fish, seabirds, sponges, Cnidarians (which includes some types of corals and jellyfish), worms, crustaceans (including shrimp, cleaner shrimp, spiny lobsters and crabs), molluscs (including cephalopods), echinoderms (including starfish, sea urchins and sea cucumbers), sea squirts, sea turtles and sea snakes. Aside from humans, mammals are rare on coral reefs, with visiting cetaceans such as dolphins being the main exception. A few of these varied species feed directly on corals, while others graze on algae on the reef and participate in complex food webs. Researchers have found evidence of algae dominance in locations of healthy coral reefs."

It's also a diuretic, which means it rids your body of fluids. If you consume large amounts of caffeine, you'll probably need to urinate more often, according to Medline Plus. While this can be a nuisance during the day, consuming caffeine before bedtime can cause you to wake up several times during the night to urinate, which can interfere with a good night's sleep. Caffeine consumption increases the risk of urinary incontinence, which is loss of bladder control, in women.

Stress and Headaches The most common headache trigger is stress, which releases certain chemicals in the brain that cause vascular changes. Anxiety, worry, shock, depression, excitement, and mental fatigue can cause stress-induced headaches. Stress-related headaches, typically in a \"\"hat-band\"\" distribution, can accompany sleep disturbances. Lowering stress through relaxation, psychotherapy, behavior modification, and antidepressant drugs (under the watch of a physician) can provide relief for stress headaches. Alcohol and Headaches Alcohol can trigger headaches immediately or following prolonged periods of drinking. Ethanol, the key ingredient of alcohol, is a natural diuretic and causes the body to lose vital salt, vitamins, and minerals. Over-consumption of alcohol can cause dehydration and chemical imbalances in the body and brain, leading to headaches that last for hours to days. Migraine and cluster headache sufferers can be especially sensitive to alcohol, even in small amounts."

Symptoms indicating dehydration include feeling thirsty, dizzy or weak. Some people may notice that their eyes or mouth feel unusually dry. While it may seem reasonable to replenish fluid loss with any sort of beverage, some beverages -- for example, those that contain caffeine or alcohol -- may actually cause, or worsen, dehydration. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Diuresis A diuretic is a substance that results in the body producing an increased amount of urine. According to Dr. Robert Swift and Dr. Dena Davidson, alcohol’s diuretic effect is fairly significant: drinking the equivalent of 50 grams of alcohol in about 8 ounces of water -- in other words, drinking four 2-oz. shots of liquor -- can result in the elimination of up to 1 quart of liquid as urine. This occurs because alcohol blocks the release of a hormone that is needed for water reabsorption. Without this hormone -- called antidiuretic hormone, or ADH -- the kidneys do not reabsorb the water; instead they excrete it as urine. Caffeine -- a stimulant that is found in coffee beans, tea leaves, sodas and even chocolate -- also has diuretic effects."

Some people may go one or more times in a day, others may only go after every second or third day. However, it is accepted that your bowel habit is normal if you pass stool at least three times a week but not more than three times a day. It is not just about the frequency of bowel movements. The quantity of stool, consistency of the feces and ease of passing stool are other factors that can determine abnormalities such as diarrhea and constipation from what can be considered a normal bowel habit. Seasonal Changes In Bowel Habit Our bowel habit does change slightly during the course of the year. It can even change over days, weeks and months. The problem is not always with the body regulating the bowel habit. More often than not, constipation that arises suddenly in a person who is otherwise not constipated is a dietary and/or lifestyle issue.

This can lead to dehydration, constipation, and kidney stones, which can actually irritate your bladder and make symptoms worse. It’s important to get the right balance, says Dr. Rosser, who recommends about two liters of fluid a day, which is eight 8-ounce glasses. ( The right amount depends on your lean body mass.)"

"text": "Natural Diuretic Foods Diuretic foods like fruit and vegetables are the best known natural diuretics, and you should be aware that are also some unhealthy diuretics like alcohol and caffeine. Having fruit and vegetables can cleanse your urinary system. These substances will increase the water content in your body and it automatically throws out the amount of water in a natural and healthy way. Using these diuretics instead of the artificial drugs is very good idea because they have natural origin and they can solve your problem of having excess fluid in your body. Before reaching for the diuretic pills, please keep reading this article where you can see the power of fruits and vegetables. There is nothing better for the body than consuming diuretics in the form of fruits and vegetables. Fruits There are many diuretic foods like fruits which are commonly known as the best natural diuretics. Naturally, all fruits are full with water and when consumed, you are adding more water to your body. More water means less water retention because this signals the kidneys that the water should be retained. Some of the best water-rich fruits are: the adorable cranberries, the watermelon which is full with vitamins and water, the pineapple which has so many vitamins, juniper berries, kiwi, cantaloupe, papaya, figs, mangoes, grapes and strawberries."

"text": "Food and Drug Interactions Home > About > About Graves' Disease > Patient Bulletins > Food and Drug Interactions Tweetby Norman Tomaka, C. R. Ph. Food can interact with the effectiveness of medications in many different ways. Food can change the rate at which medication is absorbed into the bloodstream. Food can also increase or decrease the total amount of the medication absorbed. Therefore, food can alter the time of medications’ reaction in the body and the total amount of medication delivered. Different types of food/ drink can have different effects on medication. A meal high in fat may actually increase the absorption of some products, while significantly decreasing delivery of other medications. The temperature of food and drink can also have a varying effect on medication. Hot liquids, like coffee and tea, can dissolve the release mechanism of certain timed-release products. This may produce higher than desirable blood levels soon after the medication is taken."

"text": "\"What Is Hypertension? Hypertension is high blood pressure, a very common condition in older adults. Blood pressure is the physical force exerted by the blood as it pushes against the walls of the arteries. Blood pressure readings are written in two numbers separated by a line. The top number represents the systolic blood pressure and the bottom number represents the diastolic pressure. The systolic blood pressure is the pressure in the arteries as the heart contracts pushing the blood forward. The diastolic pressure is the pressure in the arteries as the heart relaxes. Normal blood pressure is below 120/80. New guidelines from the American Heart Association (AHA) and the American College of Cardiology (ACC) published in November of 2017 consider blood pressure elevated between 120/80 and 129/80. High blood pressure or hypertension is now classified as stage 1 if your systolic reading falls between 130 and 139 or your diastolic reading is between 80 and 89."

"text": "\"Tweet (News Target) The human body is composed of 75 percent water and 25 percent solid matter. To provide nourishment, eliminate waste and conduct all the trillions of activities in the body, we need water. Most modern societies, however, no longer stress the importance of drinking water as the most important \"\"nutrient\"\" among nutrients. Entire population groups are substituting water with tea, coffee, alcohol and other manufactured beverages. Many people don't realize that the natural thirst signal of the body is a sign that it requires pure, plain drinking water. Instead, they opt for other beverages in the belief that this will satisfy the body's water requirements. This is a false belief. Common Beverage Substitutions Lead to Dehydration It is true that beverages such as tea, coffee, wine, beer, soft drinks, sports drinks and juices contain water, but they also contain caffeine, alcohol, sugar, artificial sweeteners or other chemicals that act as strong dehydrators. The more of these beverages you consume, the more dehydrated your body becomes because the effects they create in the body are exactly opposite the ones that are produced by water. Beverages containing caffeine, for example, trigger stress responses that at first have strong diuretic effects, leading to increased urination."

All do-it-yourselfers buy and use a number of solvents. Some are used for cleaning, others for use as paint, shellac or varnish thinners. Choosing the right solvent can make a job easier; using the wrong one can damage tools or a work project. To avoid costly mistakes, the do-it-yourselfer should be familiar with the most useful solvents and where, when and how to use them. Turpentine is one of the few solvents not made from petroleum distillates. It is produced by distilling the oleoresins from pine trees. It is also known as spirits of turpentine or simply turps. The best grade of turpentine is called pure gum spirits of turpentine."

It is important to keep in mind, that chemicals can exhibit more than one hazard or combinations of several hazards. Several factors can influence how a chemical will behave and the hazards the chemical presents, including the severity of the response: Concentration of the chemical. Physical state of the chemical (solid, liquid, gas ). Physical processes involved in using the chemical (cutting, grinding, heating, cooling, etc.). Chemical processes involved in using the chemical (mixing with other chemicals, purification, distillation, etc.). Other processes (improper storage, addition of moisture, storage in sunlight, refrigeration, etc.). The following sections describe general information and safety precautions about specific hazard classes. The chemical hazards listed are based on the Department of Transportation (DOT) hazard class system (which will be discussed in the Chemical Segregation section and where appropriate, will be noted as such).

The information should not be construed as dictating an exclusive course of treatment or procedure to be followed. PDF Format Solutions for Surgical Preparation of the Vagina ABSTRACT: Currently, only povidone-iodine preparations are approved for vaginal surgical-site antisepsis. However, there are compelling reasons to consider chlorhexidine gluconate solutions for off-label use in surgical preparation of the vagina, especially in women with allergies to iodine. Although chlorhexidine gluconate solutions with high concentrations of alcohol are contraindicated for surgical preparation of the vagina, solutions with low concentrations of alcohol (eg, 4%) are both safe and effective for off-label use as vaginal surgical preparations and may be used as an alternative to iodine-based preparations in cases of allergy or when preferred by the surgeon. Surgical-site antisepsis is an important step in preventing surgical-site infections, which occur in 300,000–500,000 patients who undergo surgery in the United States each year ( 1 ). Iodine-based preparations and alcohol skin preparations were approved decades ago by the U. S. Food and Drug Administration, but newer agents are gaining popularity. Chlorhexidine products have considerable advantages over other preparations by reducing a greater number of microflora and achieving longer residual activity. Solutions with high concentrations of alcohol are contraindicated for surgical preparation of the vagina. Currently, only povidone-iodine (PVP-I) preparations are approved for use in the vagina."

"text": "Properties of Propylene Glycolby KIRSTIN HENDRICKSON Aug. 14, 2017Propylene glycol is a small, carbon-based molecule that is in the alcohol family, along with the more familiar compounds ethanol (drinking alcohol) and isopropyl (rubbing alcohol). It’s perhaps most similar of all to the antifreeze compound ethylene glycol, and it too finds application as a de-icing compound and antifreeze. Mostly, however, propylene glycol is an effective solvent and is a common ingredient in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and deodorant sticks. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Physical Properties According to the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for propylene glycol, it’s a colorless liquid with a slightly sweet taste and is notably more viscous than water, meaning that it flows slowly, like syrup. Its melting point is -72.4 degrees F, and its boiling point is 370.8 degrees F. It has a specific gravity of 1.036, meaning that it is only slightly more dense than water. Its vapor pressure at normal room temperature is negligible, so propylene glycol does not evaporate to any significant degree. Molecular Properties Propylene glycol is a fairly small molecule consisting of three carbon atoms, two oxygen atoms and eight hydrogen atoms. Its molecular weight is 76.09 g/mol, according to the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics. The compound’s small size and structural similarity to drinking alcohol makes it very soluble in water; in fact, propylene glycol is hygroscopic, meaning that it can pull water out of the air and dissolve the water. As a result, a sample of propylene glycol left open to the air will gain volume over time as it gains water."

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

Fogoros, MDUpdated March 05, 2018Share Pin Email Print The best prevention for poison ivy, poison oak, or poison sumac rash is to avoid touching the plant and getting its toxic oil on your skin. But it can be impossible to avoid at times, or you may fail to identify it until it is too late. You can prevent poison ivy rash or poison oak rash by swift removal of the toxic oil as soon as possible. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) recommends applying rubbing alcohol, a specialized poison plant cleanser, or degreasing soap (such as dishwashing liquid) and rinsing well with water. Be sure to wash under your fingernails as the oil can lurk there and get spread to other areas of your body. Here are items that can help you clean away the oil and minimize your exposure. Dawn Dishwashing Liquid Buy from Amazon The first step is to wash immediately after contact with poison oak, ivy, or sumac plants to remove the toxic oil, which bonds quickly to your skin. Dawn dishwashing liquid soap is a powerful grease-cleaning product. It's used to clean oil-contaminated wildlife, and it will help get the nasty toxic oil off your skin. You may want to carry some in a small plastic bottle in your car or backpack to use in case you are exposed to poison ivy or oak."

"text": "Ethan Brown Answered Jan 23, 2017 · Author has 360 answers and 198k answer views Yes, glycerin is flammable. However, its flammability rating is one which means that the chances of glycerin getting ignited are very low. It should be first preheated to ignite. While it has a low flammability rating, it is a combustible liquid which can ignite of the conditions are right. But while glycerin is flammable and combustible, it is not known to be dangerous to humans. If it gets on skin or clothing, it can be easily eliminated, and it is soluble in water. While glycerin is not harmful, it can result in eyes and skin irritation and can also be fatal when ingested along with other chemicals. The compound belongs to polyols and alcohols reactivity groups and is a brown or amber colored clear liquid. While glycerin is not known to readily react with other substances, several other liquids that belong to the same classification can react with absorbents that are cellulose-based. It is also very commonly used for a wide range of industrial applications."

To understand the dangers associated with flammable liquids, it is useful to be familiar with the terms used to describe their chemical properties. They are: Flash point Flammable/combustible liquids Flammable range Ignition temperatures Vapor density Flash point - The temperature at which a particular flammable liquid gives off vapors (vaporizes) and therefore can ignite.

"text": "Brief Summary Introduction Learn more about this article Geochelone gigantea, the Aldabra giant tortoise, is one of the largest tortoises in the world. The Aldabra giant tortoise lives on the remote Aldabra atoll, one of the Seychelles group of islands in the Indian Ocean. The Aldabra giant tortoise's current IUCN conservation status is 'vulnerable' to extinction. Many giant tortoise species around the world have become extinct due tohuntinghabitat lossintroduced predatory species such as dogs, rats and pigs that eat tortoise eggs and babies. The Aldabra tortoise almost suffered the same fate, but its plight was recognised just in time, and its bleak Aldabra atoll home is now a World Heritage Site. However, the Aldabra atoll is only a few metres above sea level so the wild tortoises are now being threatened by climate change and rising sea levels. To aid conservation, the giant tortoises are also being bred in captivity in reserves on the islands of Mauritius and Rodrigues, where they are thriving. © Natural History Museum, London Partner Web Site: Natural History Museum Trusted Article rating from 1 person Average rating: 4.0 of 5comment on or rate this article Taxonomy Learn more about this article The taxonomy and systematics of the Indian Ocean giant tortoises is under review by the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN). The many species suggested by Walter Rothschild were 'lumped' together by the Natural History Museum’s Nick Arnold in the 1970s, then 'split' by Roger Bour in 1982. Recent genetic studies indicate that the Aldabra and Seychelles giant tortoises were all the same species."

However, giant tortoise are also often seen on lower elevations during the warm / wet season. Giant tortoises are endemic to Galapagos with 15 subspecies recorded around the archipelago. Their total population is estimated to a number of 15,000. Identification: Galapagos tortoises are unmistakable due to their large size and distinctive shape. The Galapagos tortoise exhibits two distinct carapace shapes: dome-shelled and saddle-backed, although intermediate forms do occur. In all subspecies the sexes are alike, although males are much larger than females, and have a concave plastron (ventral plate) and a noticeably longer and thicker tail. Behavior: Giant tortoises are usually only active from about 08:00 until 16:00. Mating may occur in almost any month of the year but reaches a peak during the warm / wet season, with eggs usually hatching between December and April. Sexual maturity of a Galapagos tortoise is attained at the age of about 20 - 25 years."

Some examples of predator and prey are lion and zebra, bear and fish, and fox and rabbit. The words \"\"predator\"\" and \"\"prey\"\" are almost always used to mean only animals that eat animals, but the same concept also applies to plants: Bear and berry, rabbit and lettuce, grasshopper and leaf. Predator and prey evolve together. The prey is part of the predator's environment, and the predator dies if it does not get food, so it evolves whatever is necessary in order to eat the prey: speed, stealth, camouflage (to hide while approaching the prey), a good sense of smell, sight, or hearing (to find the prey), immunity to the prey's poison, poison (to kill the prey) the right kind of mouth parts or digestive system, etc. Likewise, the predator is part of the prey's environment, and the prey dies if it is eaten by the predator, so it evolves whatever is necessary to avoid being eaten: speed, camouflage (to hide from the predator), a good sense of smell, sight, or hearing (to detect the predator), thorns, poison (to spray when approached or bitten), etc. This lizard (above), camoflauges by blending with the lichen on rocks, while the tortoise (below), has a hard shell to deter would-be predators. In this snowy environment, the polar bear is white to avoid being noticed as it approaches the seal, and the seal pup is white to avoid being noticed by the bear. The fastest lions are able to catch food and eat, so they survive and reproduce, and gradually, faster lions make up more and more of the population."

Range and habitat [ edit]Young G. sulcata The African spurred tortoise is native to the Sahara Desert and the Sahel, a transitional ecoregion of semiarid grasslands, savannas, and thorn shrublands found in the countries of Burkina Faso, Chad, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Mali, Mauritania, Nigeria, Senegal, and Sudan [1] In these arid regions, the tortoise excavates burrows in the ground to get to areas with higher moisture levels, and spends the hottest part of the day in these burrows. [ 3] This is known as aestivation. Burrows may average 30 inches in depth; some dig tunnel systems extending 10 feet or more underground. [ 3] There is a variant of this tortoise in Sudan, they differ by having a bigger overall body and shell. Size and lifespan [ edit]A sulcata tortoise with a deformed shell due to the lack of proper care C. sulcata is the third-largest species of tortoise in the world after the Galapagos tortoise, and Aldabra giant tortoise, and the largest of the mainland tortoises. [ 4] Adults can reach 83 cm (33 in) and can weigh 105 kg (231 lb). [ 5] They grow from hatchling size (2–3 in) very quickly, reaching 6-10 in (15–25 cm) within the first few years of their lives."

Fortunately for travelers everywhere, the Galapagos Islands aren't one of those places. Thanks to their remote position that straddles the equator, the Galapagos are a joy to tour no matter when you go. Still, there are some considerations to keep in mind in regards to the advantages of choosing one time to visit over another. ' High' Season versus 'Low' Season Most travel agencies would agree that the low season for the Galapagos occurs during the following months: April, May, September and October. These are the less busy times for the Islands, which may make a tour cheaper and more enjoyable for you. If you need to or would prefer to travel outside the low season, be advised that many hotels/boats/services/etc. will be filled well in advance, so make sure you plan ahead, too. The sooner the better, because if you wait until too close to your leave date, you might wind up with an itinerary or accommodations that you like, but don't love. Climate/Weather No time of year is too hot or too cold to enjoy the Galapagos, but the climate is not exactly the same throughout."

Based on personal observation on these unique isolated islands, he explains why he is not convinced that the animals of these islands make a case for the evolution of all living things. What’s So Important About the Galapagos Islands? The Galapagos Islands are located in the Pacific Ocean, 650 miles off the coast of Ecuador in South America. They are isolated from any other island group or land form. What’s so important about the Galapagos Islands? Here are four reasons: First, because they are extremely isolated, the Galapagos Islands are home for dozens of species of both plants and animals found nowhere else in the world. The Galapagos Tortoise, for example, is the largest reptile found anywhere on the planet, and it lives longer than any animal known to man. The oldest is currently over 170 years old and lives in a zoo in Australia."

They are the largest tortoises in the world and among the longest living vertebrates, with potential lifespans in excess of 170 years. In the absence of any major predators, adult tortoises evolved a docile demeanor, which unfortunately made them easy to exploit by early human settlers. It has been estimated that a population in excess of 250,000 once existed on the islands as recently as 200 years ago, but there are about 20,000-25,000 alive today .

Food Aldabra tortoises are primarily herbivorous, feeding on grasses, plants and leaves. Life Cycle Wild Aldabras typically reproduce from February to May. Females lay an average of four to 15 eggs. The number of eggs a female deposits is often relative to the number of other tortoises living nearby (the greater the number of other tortoises, the fewer the eggs).

High season in the Galapagos tends to be from mid-December through January and June to August, when most vacationers arrive. Climate / Weather Seasonal Events Water Temperatures More... Climate & Weather The Galapagos Islands have a subtropical climate regulated by the cold Humboldt current and the warm El Nino current. The islands are located at this intersection of these currents which result in the weather changing its intensity during the year as the currents' driving trade winds blow and weaken in a cycle that gives two distinct islands and control the pattern and variety of Galapagos plant and animal life. The weather varies during the year. From December until May temperatures range from low to upper 80's (with possibilities of rain). From June to September temperatures vary from low 60's to high 70's. This is the Garua season (mist in the mornings)."

"text": "Reptiles The predominance of reptiles is one of the most striking things about the wildlife of the Galapagos Islands. Mammals, after all, tend to be the dominant large terrestrial life form in almost every other part of the world. The hot and dry conditions found throughout the islands for much of the year provide ideal habitat for reptiles to thrive. In fact, Charles Darwin described the Galapagos as a “paradise” for these slow moving, cold-blooded species. Because of their sluggish metabolisms, reptiles don’t require a lot of food, which means they are well suited to survive the seasonal and climactic fluctuations common to the islands. And the scarcity of mammals, which had a much harder time getting here from the mainland, means that Galapagos reptiles face far less predation and competition than reptiles in other parts of the world. There are twenty-five native reptile species in the Galapagos (nineteen endemic), and some, such as the marine iguana, are found in truly prolific numbers. MEET THE REPTILES OF THE GALAPAGOSGiant Tortoises The giant tortoise is perhaps the most emblematic species of the Galapagos. In fact, the name Galapagos itself comes from the Old Spanish word for ‘saddle,’ in reference to the shape of some giant tortoise species’ shells. Today, the giant tortoise (and one individual dubbed ‘Lonesome George’ in particular) has come to symbolize both the uniqueness and fragility of life in the Galapagos."

"text": "The Voyage of the Beagle Part III<< Prev Section Next Section >>The Galapagos Islands were formed by the eruption of volcanoes. Darwin was shocked at the broad expanses of black, hardened lava, and by the wildlife he saw living on it. Volcanic cones dotted the landscape. Scurrying or sauntering among them were marine iguanas, crabs, birds, lizards, turtles, and giant land tortoises weighing eighty pounds or more. The crew immediately set about gathering food: they killed eighteen tortoises on the first island they landed on, Chatham, and carried them on board. Darwin collected as much of the fauna as he could lay his hands on. On September 23rd, they landed on another island in the Galapagos, Charles Island, where they found a small settlement. On the 28th they moved on to Albermarle, the largest of the islands. On each island Darwin gathered the species he found. He noticed that the birds that he had collected on Chatham differed from those he found on Charles and Albermarle, and he also heard the local residents claim that they could tell by looking at the shape of the shell which of the islands a tortoise had come from."

"text": "\"Ellie Kincaid Mar. 31, 2015, 4:26 PM 23,037For humans, reaching the age of 100 is a rare milestone. For some animals, however, it's hardly uncommon. Not all plants and animals age the way we do, and some are built for much longer lifespans than ours. Of the 10 animals that live the longest, all of them live well past 100, according to a recent post in Disco very News. At the top of the list, the ocean quahog (aka the clam) lives to be 400 years old, while the runner-up bowhead whale lives to be 211. But even the animal at the bottom of the list, the warty oreo, lives 140 years. Take a look: Statista/Niall Mc Carthy There may be animals that live longer than the ones on this list (like sea sponges, a cave salamander called the human fish that seems to live to be 100, and the potentially immortal hydra ), but these are the ones with lifespans that scientists have measured precisely. These long-lived creatures raise a question: Why do some animals live so much longer than others? While dozens of researchers have asked this question, the short answer is we still don't know. Here are some of the similarities and differences we observed in the animals above."

"text": "Despite their incredibly hard, protective shells, turtles and tortoises are on the menu for several predators. Indiscriminately and interchangeably called turtles, tortoises or terrapins by laypersons, all are members of a single lineage and are referred to collectively as chelonians. Young chelonians have the most to fear from predators; though, they become less vulnerable as they grow, humans, jaguars and crocodilians are important predators of adult tortoises. Humans Humans are undoubtedly the most significant predator of adult tortoises. Humans have eaten turtles and tortoises for millennia; though aquatic turtles are more frequently offered for sale in the developed world, some primitive rainforest cultures appear to relish tortoise meat. The Galapagos Island tortoises (Geochelone elephantopus) are good examples of this; starting in the early 1600s, pirates began capturing and eating the large tortoises. The pirates -- not known for their kindness -- would take the tortoises with them, as the tortoises wouldn’t die of starvation for months. The result is that three of the original 14 subspecies of Galapagos tortoise are extinct. Jaguars While a variety of different large cats occasionally eat turtles and tortoises, jaguars (Panthera onca) are well-known for eating these well-protected reptiles. Jaguars often kill their prey differently than other big cats; rather than severing the spinal cord of its prey like a cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) or lion (Panthera leo), jaguars often pierce the skull of their prey to kill it."

The carapace is a brown or tan color with a high, domed shape. It has stocky, heavily scaled legs to support its heavy body. The neck of the Aldabra giant tortoise is very long, even for its great size, which helps the animal to exploit tree branches up to a meter from the ground as a food source.

"text": "\"WHERE DOES ALDI’S FOOD COME FROM? Aldi contracts out their products to the SAME food manufacturers that supply national brands. The product ingredients are usually identical or very similar as they work with manufacturers to create their own store-line products that tastes the same or better than the leading brand. This is why 90% of the brands featured at ALDI are their “private label”! So, are you surprised to learn that you pay higher prices for national brands that may have come off the very same assembly line as Aldi’s private label items? A tour of a food processing company revealed that there are many different companies they can for, and Aldis was one of them. Although the brand names were different the packages look surprisingly familiar. On the production line, the line stops workers changes the brand labels in the machine, then restarts the line so different labels go on. A manager confirmed that there was absolutely no other difference in the actual product. Aldi is growing very rapidly because what they do, works!"

Wellworths-Super Valu was a trading name used briefly by Musgrave in Northern Ireland following its acquisition of small-to-medium Wellworths outlets in 1996. This was to distinguish from larger Wellworths stores which were acquired by Safeway Stores (Ireland), a joint venture between Fitzwilton and Safeway (UK)."

When the supermarket first offered the cut-price crustaceans last year, it saw a flood of middle class customers flock to its stores Photo: AFP/GETTYBy Harry Wallop, Consumer Affairs Editor7:00AM GMT 26 Mar 2009The German supermarket group, which has increased sales substantially during the recession, is offering a range of luxury items at bargain prices this Easter. As well as the £5 lobster, shoppers can also buy whole duck, weighing more than 5lb, for £5.99; a 1.5lb pack of frozen salmon in a Provencal sauce for £4.49, and discount pheasant, venison and prawns. The lobsters, which are pre-cooked and frozen, weigh about three-quarters of a pound and are shipped in from Canada. The deals start on Monday, March 30. When the supermarket first offered the cut-price crustaceans last year, it saw a flood of middle class customers flock to its stores. Analysts noticed the number of Audis and BMWs in the car parks as former Waitrose and Sainsbury shoppers tried out the German discounter, which keeps its prices down by offering basic customer service, charging for plastic bags, conducting very little marketing and selling a limited range of goods.

German discounter Lidl is preparing to conquer the USA. If all goes to plan, its first 100 stores could be opened on the heavily-populated East Coast in 2015 as part of an estimated €500m initial investment. A four-member team, headed by Ireland country manager Kenneth Mc Grath (37) and colleague Kevin Proctor (40), is already sounding the market. It is also searching for suitable store, DC, and head-office sites. Clearly Lidl is looking for a strategic alternative to Europe, where it has businesses in 25 countries outside Germany but doesn’t see major growth potential. The no-frills retailer’s expansion plans on the continent are relatively modest. Only entries into Serbia and Lithuania, two relatively small countries, are still on the books for next year. Aldi USA in turbo drive Presumably, the euro crisis will have played a role in the discounter’s decision to swim the Pond although France, Spain and Italy, which have been hard hit in the recession, generate particularly good revenues for the company.

Answered Jun 19, 2017 · Author has 2.6k answers and 12.4m answer views Amazon wants to create a multichannel grocery shopping experience. Therefore it wants to buy a grocery chain whose customers will want their groceries delivered and whose groceries can be delivered profitably. Whole Foods fits the bill. Whole Foods shoppers already use delivery services. In some stores delivery is a high single digit percentage of revenues. [ 1]Whole Foods has higher income shoppers This is important because shoppers who are richer will value their time more highly and thus be more willing to pay for delivery. These customers will drive the growth of delivery at first and then prices will come down to attract a broader customer base. This is also important because competition may intensify for those stores that serve price sensitive customers as Aldi and Lidl expand in the U. S. Whole Foods stores are in well populated metro areas This is really important for the economics of delivery to succeed. Whole Foods is more easily digestible than larger chains It doesn’t make sense for Amazon to acquire a bigger retail infrastructure than it needs."

From October, Lidl UK employees will earn a minimum of £8.20 an hour across England, Scotland and Wales, and £9.35 an hour in London, the supermarket said. However, the pay rise will not apply in Northern Ireland. The Foundation will announce a change in its recommended rates in November. The rate is different from the National Living Wage as set out in the Budget. Lidl said that if the Living Wage Foundation raised its recommended rate in its annual announcement in November, Lidl would adjust its minimum wage accordingly. Currently, Lidl pays its staff a minimum of £7.30 an hour and £8.03 an hour inside London. The Living Wage Foundation's current recommended minimal hourly rate is £7.85, and £9.15 inside London. The National Living Wage as required by the UK government, which was set out in George Osborne's July Budget, is set to be £7.20 an hour from April 2016 for people aged over 25.

Both these supermarket chains have spread all over Europe and the rest of the world, whioch makes them a leader in the sector. Both these supermarket chains have many similarities but also have certain dissimilarities. Aldi is the short form for Albrecht Discounts. It is not one company but two companies, owned by brothers. The two companies are Aldi Sud and Aldi Nord. Aldi Sud mainly focuses its business in Austria and English speaking countries whereas Aldi Nord’s business is concentrated in Northern Germany and rest of Europe. Aldi, before it was split apart, was owned by Karl Albrecht and Theo Albrecht. The company was formed in 1913 after the mother of these two started a small store in Essen. The company was spilt in 1960 over a row if cigarettes should be sold at till or not."

According to my own experience (and backed by research ), less than one percent likes to talk about their salary. But in the advent of the vote on the 1:12 initiative (it did not pass), a public debate has been sparked. Aldi Suisse and Lidl are commonly known for inexpensive goods, and few would oppose a statement that they have rather lackluster working conditions. However, these discount retailers have now gone on record with a minimum salary of 4700 and 4000 francs respectively - even for unskilled laborers. This aggressive publicity stunt was heard loud and clear among the Swiss. Remember, talking about one's salary is a taboo around here!A minimum wage of 4000 francs is particularly hard to accept for the many young apprentices who have chosen the path of skilled labor. The latter is a very common practice in Switzerland."

Photograph: David Cole/Alamy For years the German discounters Aldi and Lidl were dismissed as a quirky sideshow in the UK's £170bn grocery market, but as legions of middle class families head there for their weekly shop they are giving the big four supermarkets a run for their money. Ronny Gottschlich, Lidl's UK boss, said the recession had helped it win the hearts of a group of middle class shoppers it calls the \"\"Maidstone mums\"\", who would have considered shopping in Lidl social suicide during the years of plenty. \"\" The recession shone a spotlight on us as a supermarket that offers high quality products at low prices,\"\" he said. \"\" This low-pricing strategy that continues to draw new middle class -–the Maidstone mums – customers into our stores for the first time. \"\" The so-called \"\"hard discounters\"\" were recession darlings, but despite signs of a recovery, the discounters' love affair with British shoppers shows no sign of ending. The pair now account for 75p out of every £10 spent on food and are bigger than the Co-op, the country's fifth largest supermarket. With 70 more shops planned to open their doors this year their influence is likely to grow. During the financial crisis consumer trend watchers talked of the \"\"Aldi effect\"\", calling its customers the \"\"Aldi-rati\"\" as £4.99 Canadian lobsters from Lidl and £7.99 bottles of Chateauneuf-du-Pape from Aldi were guzzled at dinner parties around the country. At that time the discounters were viewed as places to pick up a few extras but as hard-up Britons continue to cut back spending on food they are now seen as a destination for a full weekly shop. \"\""

Deciding on the best option for you will obviously depend on where you like to shop. But if you have a choice of supermarkets it is worth weighing up the various offers to find where you can save the most money. The first thing to remember is that you must read the small print – while many supermarkets run a rewards scheme, all have their own system and points value. In fact, some rewards schemes offer points worth next to nothing - a ploy used by brands to encourage shoppers to spend more, with sometimes just a few pence to show for it. So stay savvy. Regardless, if you shop regularly at one place it is usually worth getting a rewards card anyway to ensure you are maximising your money. Supermarket shopping: Make sure you make the most of your spending Tesco Tesco's reward scheme offers the best value per point. How much are points worth? With Tesco's ordinary rewards card, the Tesco Clubcard, you collect 1 point for every £1 spent in store, on Tesco online, at Tesco Direct or for non-fuel purchases at a petrol station."

He died in Essen on July 16 and was buried in a private ceremony on Monday, the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung reported. His nephew, Berthold, heir to the £11bn Aldi fortune, died aged 58 in November 2012. Albrecht was the second-richest person in Germany and the 35th-wealthiest in the world, with an estimated fortune of £12.2bn. With his brother, Theo, he started Aldi - which is short for Albrecht Diskont - in 1946, when they took control of their mother’s grocery store in the German city of Essen. From the small provincial store, they built one of Germany’s biggest retailers, which became renowned for its low prices. However, in 1960, the business and its 300 shops were split by the brothers after they fell out over whether to sell cigarettes. This led to Aldi being separated into Aldi Nord, which operates shops in the north of Germany, and Aldi Sud, which is based in the south and now operates Aldi's UK stores.

Multicellular organisms fall within three of these kingdoms: plants, animals and fungi. Kingdom Protista contains a number of organisms that may at times appear multicellular, such as algae, but these organisms lack the sophisticated differentiation typically associated with multicellular organisms. The organisms within these kingdoms seemingly vary greatly, but at the cellular level, they share a number of features and are generally considered far more closely related to each other than to bacteria. Eukaryotes Organisms may be characterized by cellular features as either prokaryotes or eukaryotes. Eukaryotes possess linear chromosomes, a membrane-bound nucleus and complex organelles. Prokaryotes possess a circular chromosome and lack the sophisticated organelles and nucleus present in eukaryotes.

As How Stuff Works points out, in some types of single-celled algae, asexual reproduction occurs, which causes all genetic information to come from a single-parent cell, which it shares with the newly formed daughter cell. Asexual reproduction occurs by means of fission, in which a cell divides into two more cells. In other types of single-celled algae, the method of reproduction is sexual."

"text": "In the United States, we tend to think of algae as something that we peer at through microscopes during 4th grade cellular biology lessons or as the morphing clouds of green goop that creepily touch our toes when we take a dip in the lake. While often dismissed as an unimportant nuisance, algae are in fact a fascinating group of microorganisms, which use the simple components of sunlight, carbon dioxide and mineral water to robustly sustain life and reproduce at incredible rates. They are in essence, nutritionally complete microcosms of the energy systems that support us all- a blueprint for life as we understand it to be. In many cultures around the globe, different types of algae are revered as sacred superfoods, enjoyed as a spread over tortillas or dried and served with grains and vegetables. Yet with their somewhat elaborate, scientific-sounding names and vibrant green coloring, these algae superfoods can be alienating and confusing to American consumers. With so many algae products available on the market today, which do you choose? Let’s take a look at two of the most heavily researched products on the market today chlorella and spirulina, so that next time you find yourself dizzily clicking through pages of research on green supplements, you have some context to go by. Chlorella Chlorella is a genus of single cell freshwater green algae comprised of organisms that have survived as a life form for billions of years. These single celled microscopic organisms are composed primarily of chlorophyll pigments. With the capacity to reproduce at a rapid rate of 4 times in just 12 hours, chlorella is an an incredibly sustainable food source offering many important nutrients coupled with a high value of complete protein."

The members of one family, the Spongillidae, are found in fresh water; however, 98 percent of all sponge species are marine. Adult sponges lack a definite nervous system and musculature and do not show conspicuous movements of body parts. General features Early naturalists regarded the sponges as plants because of their frequent branching form and their lack of obvious movement. The animal nature of sponges, first described in 1755, was confirmed in 1765 after observations of their water currents and the changes in diameter of the openings into their central cavity. In structure, function, and development, sponges are distinct from other animals; one of their most noticeable features is that they lack organs. Many zoologists have regarded sponges as occupying an isolated position in the animal kingdom and classify them in the subkingdom Parazoa; however, molecular data suggest that both sponges and more-complex animals evolved from a common ancestor. Probably they are bona fide animals that gave rise to no further evolutionary lines. The phylum Porifera may be divided into three classes on the basis of the composition of the skeletal elements."

Plant body (thallus) do not have true roots, stems, leaves, vascular tissue and have simple reproductive structures. They never produce multicellular embryos inside the female reproductive organ. There are unicellular (e.g. planktons) and multicellular (e.g. seaweeds) algae found in freshwater (e.g. lakes and rivers), marine (e.g. sea) and terrestrial (e.g. moist pavements) habitats. The study of algae is termed phycology or algology, and one who studies algae is known as a phycologist. Classification of algae :- Algae belong to Domain-Eukarya and Kingdom - Protista (Protoctista). In 1959 American biologist R. H. Whittaker described a classification system of five primary kingdoms: plants, animals, fungi, protists, and bacteria. Because the Protista are so diverse in form, classification within the kingdom has proved difficult. The classification of the Protista is currently based largely on the structure and organization of the cell, the presence of organelles, and the pattern of reproduction or life cycles."

There are a wide variety of protists, and they inhabit many different environments—fresh water, seawater, soils, and the intestinal tracts of animals, where they perform crucial digestive processes. Like plants, many species of protists can make their own food by the process of photosynthesis. Like animals, many protists can move around under their own power. Unlike plants and animals, however, protists do not have cells organized into specialized tissues. The protists include such familiar organisms as seaweeds, amoebas, and slime molds. The kingdom Protista contains many economically important members, including organisms that cause diseases, such as malaria. Biologists theorize that members of the kingdom Protista gave rise to the kingdoms Plantae, Animalia, and Fungi about 600 million years ago. All protists are eukaryotes."

Prokaryotes have plasma membrane surrounding the cell but no membrane bound organelles such as the mitochondria, nucleus or Golgi bodies. Bacteria Cell Wall Bacteria cell wall is a layered structure which surrounds the protoplasm of the cell to protect cells from the environment. The lipid bilayer cell membrane of most of the Gram-positive bacteria is covered by a porous peptidoglycan layer which does not exclude most antimicrobial agents. Gram-negative bacteria are surrounded by two membranes. The outer membrane functions as an efficient permeability barrier because it contains lipopolysaccharides and proteins. Bacteria cell wall is made up of a unique peptidoglycan (a polymer of disaccharide which is cross linked to amino acids) called Murein. Its basic structure is a carbohydrate backbone of alternating units of N-acetyl glucosamine and N-acetyl muramic acid."

Two Major Groups of Protists:1. Some protists are autotrophs , a photosynthetic group of phyla referred to as the algae. Autotrophs manufacture their own energy by photosynthesis or chemosynthesis. Algae use various combinations of the major chlorophyll pigments, chlorophyll a, b, and c, mixed with a wide array of other pigments that give some of them very distinctive colors.2.

The fungus component is called the mycobiont and is composed of intertwined, threadlike fibers called hyphae that are tightly packed into a tissuelike sheet. The fungus uses these hyphae to absorb food from its surroundings. The algal component, called the photobiont, makes its own food through photosynthesis and grows as a mass of green cells dispersed among the fungal hyphae. Lichens survive in a wide variety of environments, either forming small, circular crusts or leaflike structures attached to bark, rocks, or soil, or as hairlike structures hanging from tree branches. Lichens Growing on a Rock The relationship between the fungus and the alga in a lichen is an example of mutualism, in which both partners benefit from the partnership ( see Symbiosis ). This relationship enables each to tolerate harsh conditions where neither could survive alone. In this partnership, the fungus furnishes the alga with water, prevents overexposure to sunlight, and provides simple mineral nutrients, while the photosynthesizing alga supplies food to the fungus even if no other organic material is available. In dry, barren areas where plants have a hard time growing, such as polar tundra, deserts, rocky outcrops, or high mountains, lichens are the primary photosynthesizers. Some remarkable species even grow inside porous rocks, just below the surface where some light can still reach the algal cells."

Socki b Paul B. Niles a Show morehttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.gca.2015.01.027 Get rights and content Abstract Experiments were performed to better understand the role of environmental factors on reaction pathways and corresponding carbon isotope fractionations during abiotic hydrothermal synthesis of organic compounds using piston cylinder apparatus at 750 °C and 5.5 kbars. Chemical compositions of experimental products and corresponding carbon isotopic values were obtained by a Pyrolysis–GC–MS–IRMS system. Alkanes (methane and ethane), straight-chain saturated alcohols (ethanol and n -butanol) and monocarboxylic acids (formic and acetic acids) were generated with ethanol being the only organic compound with higher δ 13 C than CO 2. CO was not detected in experimental products owing to the favorable water–gas shift reaction under high water pressure conditions. The pattern of δ 13 C values of CO 2, carboxylic acids and alkanes are consistent with their equilibrium isotope relationships: CO 2 > carboxylic acids > alkanes, but the magnitude of the fractionation among them is higher than predicted isotope equilibrium values. In particular, the isotopic fractionation between CO 2 and CH 4 remained constant at ∼31‰, indicating a kinetic effect during CO 2 reduction processes. No “isotope reversal” of δ 13 C values for alkanes or carboxylic acids was observed, which indicates a different reaction pathway than what is typically observed during Fischer–Tropsch synthesis under gas phase conditions. Under constraints imposed in experiments, the anomalous 13 C isotope enrichment in ethanol suggests that hydroxymethylene is the organic intermediate, and that the generation of other organic compounds enriched in 12 C were facilitated by subsequent Rayleigh fractionation of hydroxymethylene reacting with H 2 and/or H 2 O. Carbon isotope fractionation data obtained in this study are instrumental in assessing the controlling factors on abiotic formation of organic compounds in hydrothermal systems. Knowledge on how environmental conditions affect reaction pathways of abiotic synthesis of organic compounds is critical for understanding deep subsurface ecosystems and the origin of organic compounds on Mars and other planets.

"text": "Practice Nomenclature Problems Chemical Reactivity of Alkanes Reactions of Alkanes and Cycloalkanes The alkanes and cycloalkanes, with the exception of cyclopropane, are probably the least chemically reactive class of organic compounds. Despite their relative inertness, alkanes undergo several important reactions that are discussed in the following section.1. Combustion The combustion of carbon compounds, especially hydrocarbons, has been the most important source of heat energy for human civilizations throughout recorded history. The practical importance of this reaction cannot be denied, but the massive and uncontrolled chemical changes that take place in combustion make it difficult to deduce mechanistic paths. Using the combustion of propane as an example, we see from the following equation that every covalent bond in the reactants has been broken and an entirely new set of covalent bonds have formed in the products. No other common reaction involves such a profound and pervasive change, and the mechanism of combustion is so complex that chemists are just beginning to explore and understand some of its elementary features. CH 3 -CH 2 -CH 3 + 5 O 2 —— > 3 CO 2 + 4 H 2 O + heat Two points concerning this reaction are important:1. Since all the covalent bonds in the reactant molecules are broken, the quantity of heat evolved in this reaction is related to the strength of these bonds (and, of course, the strength of the bonds formed in the products). Precise heats of combustion measurements can therefore provide useful iinformation about the structure of molecules. 2."

The smallest hydrocarbon, methane, is composed of a single carbon atom and four hydrogen atoms. However, hydrocarbons can literally consist of hundreds or thousands of individual atoms that are linked together in any number of ways, including chains, circles, and other complex shapes. Properties Because the structure of different hydrocarbons can vary so drastically, the properties of each class of molecule vary greatly as well. In order to help categorize the properties of hydrocarbons, they are broken up into several basic types. Alkanes – These are referred to as saturated hydrocarbons. Saturated has a specific definition in terms of carbon-based molecules. Carbon can form up to four separate bonds with four separate other atoms. However, it is also possible for carbon to form multiple bonds with a single atom, even another carbon atom."

Steps1 Know why the rules exist. The IUPAC rules were created to phase out old names (such as \"\"toluene\"\") and replace them with a system that would be consistent, as well as providing information about the placement of substituents (the atoms or molecules attached to a hydrocarbon chain).2 Keep a list of prefixes on-hand. These prefixes will help you name your hydrocarbons. They're based on the number of carbons in the parent chain (not altogether). For instance, CH 3 -CH 3 would be ethane. Your professor probably won't expect you to know prefixes above 10; take note if he or she does expect it.1: meth-2: eth-3: prop-4: but-5: pent-6: hex-7: hept-8: oct-9: non-10: dec-3 Practice.

The combustibility of alkanes, such as butane, makes them useful in lamps, cook stoves and lighters. The double and triple bonds in alkenes and alkynes make those molecules much more reactive. Alkenes react quickly to halogens, adding two halogen atoms or one halogen atom and a hydrogen atom across multiple bonds."

"text": "Arteries, veins, and capillaries are in fact all forms of blood vessels, just with different shapes and roles in the body. Blood vessels are an integral part of the circulatory system, which transfers oxygen and important components of life around the body and removes waste. Each of the three major types of blood vessels play their own role in this complex system, helping to keep a human body functioning at full strength and health. The arteries are those blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart. This means that, with only two exceptions, arteries are carrying highly oxygenated blood to transport oxygen to the tissue of the body. Arteries are the higher-pressure part of the circulatory system, as they are getting blood from the heart. The pressure in the arteries differs between when the heart contracts and when it expands, the systolic and diastolic pressure, respectively. It is this pressure shift that can be felt as a pulse. The largest artery in the body is the aorta, in the heart. The aorta receives blood from the heart’s left ventricle, then branches off into smaller and smaller arteries, eventually turning into arterioles, which supply the capillaries with blood."

Blood Gas Analysis Definition Blood gas analysis, also called arterial blood gas (ABG) analysis, is a test which measures theamounts of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood, as well as the acidity (p H) of the blood. Purpose An ABG analysis evaluates how effectively the lungs are delivering oxygen to the blood and howefficiently they are eliminating carbon dioxide from it. The test also indicates how well the lungsand kidneys are interacting to maintain normal blood p H (acid-base balance). Blood gas studiesare usually done to assess respiratory disease and other conditions that may affect the lungs,and to manage patients receiving oxygen therapy (respiratory therapy). In addition, the acid-basecomponent of the test provides information on kidney function. Description Blood gas analysis is performed on blood from an artery. It measures the partial pressures of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood, as well as oxygen content, oxygen saturation,bicarbonate content, and blood p H. Oxygen in the lungs is carried to the tissues through the bloodstream, but only a small amount of this oxygen can actually dissolve in arterial blood. How much dissolves depends on the partialpressure of the oxygen (the pressure that the gas exerts on the walls of the arteries). Therefore,testing the partial pressure of oxygen is actually measuring how much oxygen the lungs aredelivering to the blood."

"text": "The vertebrate circulatory system The basic vertebrate pattern The plan All vertebrates have circulatory systems based on a common plan, and so vertebrate systems show much less variety than do those of invertebrates. Although it is impossible to trace the evolution of the circulatory system by using fossils (because blood vessels do not fossilize as do bones and teeth), it is possible to theorize on its evolution by studying different groups of vertebrates and their developing embryos. Many of the variations from the common plan are related to the different requirements of living in water and on land. The heart The vertebrate heart lies below the alimentary canal in the front and centre of the chest, housed in its own section of the body cavity. During the development of an embryo, the heart first appears below the pharynx, and although it may also be in this position in adult animals, the heart often moves posteriorly as the animal grows and matures. The heart is basically a tube made of special muscle (cardiac muscle) that is not found anywhere else in the body. This cardiac muscle beats throughout life with its own automatic rhythm. Deoxygenated blood from the body is brought by veins into the most posterior part of the heart tube, the sinus venosus. From there it passes forward into the atrium, the ventricle, and the conus arteriosus (called the bulbus cordis in embryos), and eventually to the arterial system. The blood is pushed through the heart because the various parts of the tube contract in sequence."

The oxygen carrying capacity is thus fully filled up (98%-100%). This is present in all the arteries and the pulmonary vein.

The Circulatory System is an organ system that transfers the body's essentials such as blood cells, nutrients, gases, and etc. to and from the cells in order to maintain homeostasis. Under the circulatory system, there are two systems: cardiovascular system and the lymphatic system. The cardiovascular system consists of the heart, blood, and blood vessels, while the lymphatic system is composed of the lymph, lymph nodes, and lymph vessels. Not all organisms require a circulatory system. Its primary purpose is to distribute nutrients and essential elements like oxygen throughout the cell. Smaller organisms, or those with a high surface area relative to their volume, do not need a circulatory system because transfer can take place directly across their cellular membranes. Flatworms are an example of this; due to their size and shape, cells can obtain nutrients and remove waste without the need for an extensive circulatory system because diffusion is sufficient. Human beings, however, require a circulatory system due to their size; for example, oxygen would not be able to effectively diffuse into organ cells without a circulatory system because oxygen would have to go through our skin and into organ cells for them to receive oxygen."

Small intestine bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) is a chronic digestive ailment in which the number of naturally occuring intestinal bacteria multiplies significantly as a result of a lack of movement in the small intestine. Peristaltic action within the intestines ordinarily sweeps food wastes and excess bacteria toward the colon for excretion. When this mechanism fails or is insufficient, SIBO can result. Sometimes also called small bowel bacterial overgrowth syndrome or SBBOS, the condition is characterized by symptoms of nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, and bloating. Certain other medical conditions can lead to SIBO, including Crohn's Disease, scleroderma, diabetes, and the presence of diverticula. Natural Remedies for SIBOPeppermint Oil Peppermint oil (enterically coated) has been studied and found to reduce the number of microbes in the small intestine.

A few years ago, after a gnarly bout of giardia earned from a few months studying in India, and the ensuing rounds of antibiotics prescribed to kill the bugs, I began to take a probiotic supplement to recoup. I was hoping for something to help me digest, and for some new microorganisms to repopulate my intestine and fend off bad bacteria. The regimen was easy—right before breakfast, I’d down one or two small capsules with some water. And it seemed to work; within a few months, my digestion was back on track. But it’s a little hard to say: Did the probiotics cure my turbulent gut, or was it just the passage of time and a return to normal food and sanitation?

But there’s a lot of information out there about probiotics, and almost every product claims to be the best at what it does. So, how do you know what’s true? And what are the most important things to know about probiotics? Let’s bust some of the most common probiotic myths.1) Some Probiotic Strains Are Better Than Others Are some probiotic strains better than others? Yes and no. While probiotics are the beneficial bacteria that live in your intestinal tract, there are trillions of organisms in your intestinal tract and dozens if not hundreds of different strains of good bacteria there as well. As a result, it’s impossible to say for certain which probiotic strain is “best” because it varies significantly from one person to the next. Everyone’s gut microbiome is different depending on diet, genes, climate, age, the acidity of our digestive tract and countless other variables—and our microbiomes are continually shifting. 1 The best probiotic for you will also depend on why you are using a probiotic in the first place since different probiotic strains may benefit your health in different ways."

"text": "How I Cured My Cystic Acne Update: 1 Year After Probiotics Treatment April 22, 2015So it’s been passed one year since I finally got some control over my acne! It’s been a slow process, but the result is significantly better than what it was a year ago, or even two! I’m excited to share with you my complete process, in this update I’ve included pictures way back from the beginning of 2013 when I started documenting my acne journey, which I hope won’t gross you out too much. I’ve learned much through my acne and skin problems to say that I AM NOT MY SKIN, and therefore I share these pictures with ease and no shame. I hope it inspires and gives someone out there hope that there’s a natural way to treat acne, and that it can be controlled without spending lots of money on expensive treatments, regimes and medication with severe side effects. Read Part 1 if you’ve missed it!That was me just two years ago, in the beginning of my green beauty journey. Just before this in 2012, I went on roaccutan and antibiotics for a third time in my life, but the acne just wouldn’t quit, and it got more aggressive. As this wasn’t enough, matter got worse when I got struck by chronic dizziness and ringing in the ears which practically happened over night that autumn. After three months of doctor appointments and tests, they couldn’t find any cause for it, and I was faced with the thought that it would always be like this for now. This was heartbreaking for me to comprehend, it was like my life was over – actually, getting a cancer sentence at the time sounded better than for the rest of my life not being able to do simple tasks without getting a headache."

But this is one area where we also see a lot of confusion. Supplementation of healthy bacteria willy-nilly, without knowing what or why you’re doing what you’re doing, can be just as detrimental to your health as doing nothing at all. So before you stock up on pills or start mainlining sauerkraut, let’s get the complete low-down on all things probiotic from today’s guest expert, Dr. Tim Gerstmar of Aspire Natural Health. What are probiotics, and what role do they play in the body? Let’s back up a second before talking about probiotics and talk about gut flora. Inside our digestive tract we have somewhere around 100 trillion bacteria happily living in us. We’re like a giant high-rise building, and the bacteria are our tenants. About 7 lbs of “you” is really bacteria that live in your intestines, from your mouth to the other end."

"text": "\"The Benefit of Probiotic Foods For A Candida Yeast Infection One of the main reasons that people get a candida yeast infection is from the use of antibiotics. Keep in mind that candida albicans lives in the intestines, which is where any yeast infection begins. The term \"\"yeast infection\"\" is most commonly used to describe a vaginal symptom, but any yeast infection begins in the gut, and can express itself in many ways, a few of which include: skin inflamations, rectal itching, allergies, digestive troubles such as IBS, anxiety or depression. An antibiotic is taken specifically to kill bacteria which have been designated as the source of an illness (hence, the term \"\"anti-biotic\"\"). The problem with antibiotics is that they kill more than just one particular strain of bacteria, which upsets the normal balance of micro-organisms in our mucous membranes. This, in turn, allows the yeast (which is antibiotic-resistant since it's a fungus, not a bacteria) to grow out of control. That’s why its so common for a candida yeast infection to occur after taking antibiotics. What are the benefits of probiotic foods? \"\" And what are probiotics, anyway? \"\" The most commonly recognised form of probiotic is acidophilus."

Kew Bridge Opened: 1903How long? 360m Fascinating facts: The current bridge is the third incarnation. Its original name was King Edward VII Bridge, and that is in fact still its official title, but it is almost universally known as Kew Bridge as its predecessors were. It bears the coats of arms of Middlesex and Surrey on its parapet, which were damaged by shrapnel from German bombers in the Second World War. Chiswick Bridge Opened: 1933How long? 185m Fascinating facts: A ferry would transfer people from bank to bank before this bridge was erected.

It occupies a large area on three levels immediately south-east of London Bridge and 1.6 miles (2.6 km) east of Charing Cross. The main line station is the oldest railway station in London fare zone 1 and one of the oldest in the world having opened in 1836. It is one of two main line termini in London to the south of the River Thames (the other being Waterloo) and is the fourth-busiest station in London, handling over 50 million customers a year. The station was originally opened by the London and Greenwich Railway as a local commuter service. It subsequently served the London and Croydon Railway, the London and Brighton Railway and the South Eastern Railway to become an important London terminus. It was rebuilt in 1849 and again in 1864 to provide more services and increase capacity. Local services from London Bridge began to be electrified at the turn of the 20th century, and had spread to national routes by the 1930s. The station was extensively rebuilt by British Rail in the 1970s, along with a comprehensive re-signalling scheme and track alignment. It was further developed in the 2010s to better accommodate the Thameslink route which provides a connection to Gatwick Airport, Luton Airport and Crossrail."

The river is tidal in London with a rise and fall of 7 metres (23 ft) and becomes non-tidal at Teddington Lock. The catchment area covers a large part of South Eastern and Western England and the river is fed by over 20 tributaries. The river contains over 80 islands, and having both seawater and freshwater stretches supports a variety of wildlife. The river has supported human activity from its source to its mouth for thousands of years providing habitation, water power, food and drink.

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Thames Frost Fair, 1683–84, by Thomas Wyke River Thames frost fairs were held on the tideway of the River Thames at London in some winters between the 17th century and early 19th century, during the period known as the Little Ice Age, when the river froze over. During that time the British winter was more severe than now, and the river was wider and slower, further impeded by the medieval Old London Bridge. Even at its peak, in the mid-17th century, the Thames freezing at London was less frequent than modern legend sometimes suggests, never exceeding about one year in ten except for four winters between 1649 and 1666. From 1400 to the removal of the now-replaced medieval London Bridge in 1835, there were 24 winters in which the Thames was recorded to have frozen over at London; if \"\"more or less frozen over\"\" years (in parentheses) are included, the number is 26: 1408, 1435, 1506, 1514, 1537, 1565, 1595, 1608, 1621, 1635, 1649, 1655, 1663, 1666, 1677, 1684, 1695, 1709, 1716, 1740, (1768), 1776, (1785), 1788, 1795, and 1814. So, of the 24, the by-century totals are: 15th two, 16th five, 17th ten, 18th six, 19th one. [ 1] Frost fairs were far more common elsewhere in Europe, for example in the Netherlands. The Thames freezes over more often upstream, beyond the reach of the tide, especially above the weirs, of which Teddington Lock is the lowest. The last great freeze of the higher Thames was in 1962–63. [ 2]During the Great Frost of 1683–84, the worst frost recorded in England, [3] [4] [5] the Thames was completely frozen for two months, with the ice reaching a thickness of 11 inches (28 cm) in London. Solid ice was reported extending for miles off the coasts of the southern North Sea (England, France and the Low Countries ), causing severe problems for shipping and preventing the use of many harbours.

The Shard The tip of the Shard View from the Tower Bridge The skyscraper is situated in the London Bridge Quarter in Southwark, a neighborhood along the south bank of the river Thames. It is right near the heart of London and only the river separates it from the City of London. The area is full of history: a bridge was built here by the Romans around 50 AD and in 1836 London's first railway station opened here. Construction The idea to build a supertall skyscraper in the London Bridge Quarter was first mooted at the end of the twentieth century. The building would replace the Southwark Towers, a one hundred meters tall high-rise complex built in 1976. The site seemed ideal: it is only a couple minutes' walk from London's financial center across the London Bridge and the site is right smack near the London Bridge Station, a transport hub connected to both the railway network and the underground. Plans for the new skyscraper were initially drawn up by the architectural firm of Broadway Malyan, and called for a circular 365 meters tall tower."

There have been two Chelsea Bridges, on the site of what was an ancient ford. The first Chelsea Bridge was proposed in the 1840s as part of a major development of marshlands on the south bank of the Thames into the new Battersea Park. It was a suspension bridge intended to provide convenient access from the densely populated north bank to the new park. Although built and operated by the government, tolls were charged initially in an effort to recoup the cost of the bridge. Work on the nearby Chelsea Embankment delayed construction and so the bridge, initially called Victoria Bridge, did not open until 1858."

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

The tale of how the bridge came to Lake Havasu City began over 5,400 miles away in London, England. The London Bridge spanning the River Thames in England The bridge’s storied past includes previous structures that spanned the same section of the Thames River before the current bridge was built. The old London Bridge of nursery-rhyme fame was built by Peter of Colechurch between 1176 and 1209, replacing an earlier timber bridge. Due to uneven construction, the bridge required frequent repair. The bridge survived more than 600 years. One of the more grisly periods of the bridge’s history was at the southern gateway between 1305 and 1660, when it was customary to display the severed heads of traitors, impaled on pikes and dipped in tar to preserve them against the elements. The head of William Wallace was the first to appear on the gate. Other famous heads on pikes included those of Jack Cade in 1450, Sir Thomas More and Bishop John Fisher in 1535, and Thomas Cromwell in 1540. A German visitor to London in 1598 counted over 30 heads on the bridge."

"text": "A BRIEF HISTORY OF LONDON, ENGLANDBy Tim Lambert Dedicated to Lucinda Wilde ROMAN LONDONThe Romans founded London about 50 AD. Its name is derived from the Celtic word Londinios, which means the place of the bold one. After they invaded Britain in 43 AD the Romans built a bridge across the Thames. They later decided it was an excellent place to build a port. The water was deep enough for ocean going ships but it was far enough inland to be safe from Germanic raiders. Around 50 AD Roman merchants built a town by the bridge. So London was born. The early settlement at London did not have stone walls but there may have been a ditch and an earth rampart with a wooden palisade on top. Then in 61 AD Queen Boudicca led a rebellion against the Romans. Her army marched on London."

London’s bridges enable trains, cars, and pedestrians to cross quickly over the River Thames rush hour permitting. While some are celebrated in nursery rhymes or captured as backdrops in travelers’ photographs, each London bridge has a unique history. Let’s take a brief look at several of London’s bridges. London Bridge A London Bridge has existed in more or less the same spot for almost 2,000 years. And just as the nursery rhyme explains, it kept falling down. The Romans built the first bridge shortly after they set up camp in London in 46 AD. Constructed out of wood, early versions of London Bridge were susceptible to fire, storms, and occasional invading armies. The first stone bridge was completed after 33 years of construction in 1209."

Sign up now If a piece of cheese has mold growing on it, should I throw the cheese away? Answers from Katherine Zeratsky, R. D., L. D. Soft cheeses, such as cottage cheese, cream cheese and ricotta cheese, with mold should be discarded. The same goes for any kind of cheese that's shredded, crumbled or sliced. With these cheeses, the mold can send threads throughout the cheese. In addition, harmful bacteria, such as listeria, brucella, salmonella and E. coli, can grow along with the mold. Mold generally can't penetrate far into hard and semisoft cheeses, such as cheddar, Colby, Parmesan and Swiss. So you can cut away the moldy part and eat the rest of the cheese. Cut off at least 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) around and below the moldy spot."

Some blue cheeses are injected with spores before the curds form, and others have spores mixed in with the curds after they form. Blue cheeses are typically aged in a temperature-controlled environment such as a cave. Blue cheese can be eaten by itself or can be spread, crumbled or melted into or over foods. The characteristic flavor of blue cheeses tends to be sharp and salty. The smell of this food is due both to the mold and to types of bacteria encouraged to grow on the cheese: for example, the bacterium Brevibacterium linens is responsible for the smell of many blue cheeses, [1] as well as foot odor and other human body odors.

They look gross, smell worse and ruin any chance you had of enjoying a peanut butter sandwich. However, they do provide the perfect opportunity for some experiments!What Is It? The green stuff on your slice of bread is called mold. Mold is a microscopic, living organism in the Fungi kingdom, related to yeast and mushrooms. Although it can be harmful if handled incorrectly, mold is not a bacteria or virus. In the first stage of its life cycle, mold lays dormant as a spore, a reproductive structure that is similar to the seeds of plants. When these spores find a warm, moist, nutrient-rich environment they set up a colony, mature and produce more spores. That's the growth that you see on your food--trillions of mold spores!These spores are a constant part of our environment, but they rarely cause health problems. People with sensitive respiratory or immune systems may have an allergic reaction to these background levels of spores."

By Roxanne Khamsi There’s nothing unsafe about that cheese on your burger. Photo by Ho New/Reuters W hole Foods and Lebanon may seem like odd bedfellows, but on the matter of dairy products, they’re of one mind. Both have shown distaste for the antifungal known as natamycin, which is commonly used to preserve cheese.

"text": "\"How to Know When Ricotta Cheese Is Spoiledby JULIE CHRISTENSEN Oct. 03, 2017Ricotta cheese, like cottage cheese and cream cheese, is high in moisture and spoils more quickly than hard cheeses. Use it promptly because it only stays fresh for a week or two. If the cheese doesn't look or smell like it did when you first opened it, your best course of action is to throw it out. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Blue Fuzzy Things Your first clue that ricotta cheese has gone bad is a change in appearance. Although some types of soft cheeses, such as Brie or Danish blue may intentionally be coated with an edible layer of mold, any mold that grows on ricotta is a sign that the cheese has spoiled. You can cut mold off hard cheeses and still eat the cheese, but once mold appears on ricotta, throw it away. Some molds produce harmful toxins and the mold spores have likely infiltrated the entire container. The cheese may also be watery or have a light brown or yellow appearance, rather than white. Take a Whiff Unlike many cheeses that naturally have a pronounced odor, ricotta cheese has almost no odor. Ricotta is a mild, soft cheese that tastes and smells mostly of milk."

Cheese was invented as a means of storing the food value of milk back in the days before refrigeration. Even some molds on cheese are perfectly safe since the molds are what give them their flavor.

Microorganisms are organisms that are unicellular or live in a colony of cellular organisms such as bacteria, fungi, archaea, and protists; microscopic plants (green algae); and animals such as plankton and the planarian. Microorganisms were the first forms of life to develop on Earth, approximately 3–4 billion years ago, the study of microorganisms is called microbiology. Microorganisms live in all parts of the earth’s biosphere where there is liquid water, including soil, hot springs, on the ocean floor, high in the atmosphere and deep inside rocks within the Earth’s crust. Microorganisms are critical to nutrient recycling in ecosystems as they act as decomposers. Microorganisms are present in raw milk and are used in controlling the fermentation process in making cheese, either natively or by additionally applying, and are critical in developing different cheese types flavours and aromas, and in inhibiting undesirable organisms. Microorganisms are also used in brewing, winemaking, baking, pickling and other food making processes. Historically and in many cases currently cheese has been made in very rustic facilities with many ambient/wild microorganisms, which does not necessarily mean unsanitary, but does result in cheese quality that is too inconsistent for modern cheese factories but good for home and artisan cheese making. The main types of microorganisms used in making cheese are shown below. Bacteria Bacteria are a biological kingdom of simple single-celled, prokaryote (lacking a cell nucleus) microorganisms."

"text": "The classification of cheeses Cheeses are normally classified according to firmness, which varies with the degree of moisture. The moisture content of firm cheeses may be as low as 30%, while that of soft or fresh cheeses may be as high as 80%. The most common designations include fresh (or unripened) cheeses, soft ripened cheeses, firm or semi-firm cheeses, blue-veined, processed and goat’s-milk cheeses. Fresh cheeses Fresh or unripened cheeses are coagulated under the action of lactic acid fermentation in the milk instead of adding rennet. While they are drained after formation of the curd, they are neither ripened nor fermented. This category includes cottage cheese, ricotta, mascarpone, cream cheese and quark. Fresh cheeses are mainly used in baking and desserts, plain or flavored with vegetables, fruits, herbs or spices. Fresh cheeses Soft cheeses Soft cheeses are ripened for a relatively short period of time before being drained and turned into molds without being pressed or cooked. They have a moisture content of 50% to 60% and their fat content represents 20% to 26% of the cheese’s weight. They develop a soft rind that can be more or less satiny and are usually eaten with bread, since they tend to lose a lot of flavor when heated."

Blue cheese contains two highly allergenic substances: milk and mold. Most symptoms caused by an allergic reaction are the result of inflammation in soft tissue in different parts of the body. Your doctor may recommend allergy testing to determine the cause of the inflammation. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Inflammation Cause Inflammation from a food allergy is the result of histamine produced in soft tissue. When you eat something that you’re allergic to, your immune system releases immunoglobulin E antibodies that attack the substance. If you’re allergic to milk or mold, you immune system mistakes the proteins in these ingredients as dangerous and attempts to fight off the proteins with the Ig E antibodies. Ig E antibodies trigger mast cells to produce histamine, which leads to inflammation. Histamine is commonly released in the sinus tissue, lung tissue, the skin and the tissue that lines the intestines.

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

We have developed a special Chevre culture pack available from our website that contains both the culture and powdered rennet to set 1 gallon of milk and easily produce a delicious Chevre. Below this simple recipe, we have a more in depth recipe for an aged Chevre.1 Acidify & Heat Milk Begin by warming the milk to 68-72°F (20-22°C). You do this by placing the milk in a pot or sink of warm water or, if fresh from the herd, allow the milk to cool naturally to this temp for an hour or so. Ricki suggests heating to 86F but I find that in the summertime 72°F works well for me here and slows the acid production and curd formation down for a more even textured curd. In the winter time I have used the 86F as a starting point but rarely find good goats milk then. Once the milk is at the correct temperature the Chevre culture can be added. To prevent the powder from caking and sinking in clumps, sprinkle the powder over the surface of the milk and then allow about two minutes for the powder to re-hydrate before stirring it in.2 Coagulation The milk now needs to sit quiet for 6-12 hours while the culture works and the rennet coagulates the curd. The thermal mass of this milk should keep it warm during this period. It is OK if the temp drops a few degrees during this time."

Penicillium is the typical “blue” mold found on food. Bread that sat too long in the pantry typically develops penicillium. In fact, as the name implies, the very tasty blue cheese is derived from this particular strain of mold. In this day and age, cheese makers now add a commercially reproduced and freeze-dried culture, but originally, penicillium was procured from dark, damp caves and adding to the cheese. The distinctly blue Roqueforts were then stored and aged inside the same caves. Blue cheese is not alone in the good mold department. Many cheeses have an element of mold to them and, to some food connoisseurs, a piece of cheese is not edible until it has a nice coating of mold on it. And, let’s not forget the world’s first and best antibiotic: penicillin. Alexander Fleming is credited with discovering that penicillium killed colonies of bacteria in 1929."

Sight, smell, then taste - these are your best guidelines as to when to know if a cheese has passed beyond the point of no return. If the expiration date printed on the cheese packaging has come and gone use the following tests to determine if your cheese is still usable, or if it needs to go to the trash. General Guidelines Most whole, cut or sliced cheeses can survive a little mold and still come back from the brink. The more moist the cheese, the more likely it is to succumb to decay versus the drier cheeses which are more resistant. Mold needs moisture to grow, you know. Grated cheeses are riskier, again depending on the original moisture content of the cheese. Cheeses such as cheddar and mozzarella should either be bought whole and grated as you need, or if bought pre-shredded used as soon as possible. Pre-grated or shaved Parmesan, however (and no, not just the green-can kind) can go much longer without risk because the aged cheese was so dry to begin with."

Finding good milk will help you create fantastic cheese. When getting milk, you always want it to be as fresh as possible. If you have access to farm fresh, try to get that days milk, and enjoy your bounty because you are one lucky cheese maker! When using store bought milk, wait to open the container until you're ready to start. Most importantly, if your milk tastes sour or “off”, do not use it; turning it into cheese will not make it taste better. Making cheese causes the protein part of milk solids to coagulate and produce curd. At first the curd is a soft gel-like texture because it contains all the water along with the solids. As the curds are heated, and time passes, liquid (whey) is released, and the curds condense more and more until they become cheese. Time, temperature, a variety of friendly bacteria, and enzymes determine the flavor and texture of each type of cheese."

If you’ve put down good money for what you thought was a genuine Cohiba Esplendido, Montecristo No. 2 or Partagás Serie D No. 4 only to be disappointed when you lit up, you weren’t in a laughing mood. Smoking a fake cigar just isn’t fun at all. Counterfeit cigars are a bigger problem than you might think."

"text": "\"Havana Shopping in Havanaadvertisement Havana is by no means a great shopping city (although it is the best in Cuba). Given the reality of the Cuban economy, all shops selling any goods above and beyond the basic necessities are by default geared entirely toward tourists, a small community of foreign diplomats and workers, and an even smaller community of Cubans earning enough hard currency to afford such luxuries. Hence, it's a challenge to find interesting shops with unique local items at good prices. In general, stores throughout Havana are open from 9am to 5pm, 7 days a week. Some may open earlier and close later, particularly in heavily trafficked tourist areas. Virtually none close for lunch. All shops selling to tourists operate exclusively with Cuban convertible pesos. Most are run by big, state-owned enterprises. The most common stores belong to the Caracol chain, which is geared primarily to tourists, while the Tiendas Panamericanas chain specializes in household and domestic items aimed at foreign residents. In recent years, modern malls have begun popping up."

When appointed the British distribution agent, the John Hunter firm shortened the brand's name to Montecristo. The John Hunter firm also redesigned the brand's logo to its distinctive red and yellow box with the triangular crossed swords.

One might think that cigars are making a comeback, but nothing could be farther from the truth. They never went away in the first place. Cigars are cool and always have been, in a timeless way that can’t quite be explained, but doesn’t need to be. They represent the way things used to be, when quality craftsmanship, good conversation, and tradition were things that mattered. They represent the good life, in whatever way that means to you. It could be a celebratory occasion like a wedding or a graduation, or you might be using a cigar to help you keep your cool during a poker game, or you might be having a satisfying smoke after dinner, or possibly your cigar is just something to make the moment longer when you are sharing a conversation with your best friends. No matter what the occasion, smoking a cigar just makes things better and more memorable. But you know what isn’t cool, and isn’t where it is at? Not having any idea what kind of cigar to buy."

There are also beautiful original works of art in the galleries that really showcase Cuban creativity and ingenuity. Many of the traditional products from Cuba are well worth buying as souvenirs, such as rum, coffee, cigars, and guayaberas (Cuban shirts) that are sold here at a cheaper price than abroad. It is important to mention that there are many vendors in the streets selling illegal merchandise without the official seals, so it is better to shop at the specialty stores or buy directly from the factories when you visit them. Cigars Cuba is well-known for producing the best cigars in the world and in Havana there are several factories and shops where you can buy the top brands at great prices. You can purchase Cohiba, Partagas, and Montecristo at the Museo del Tabaco (Tobacco Museum) and at the shops called La Casa del Habano y La Casa del Tabaco, of which there are many locations in town and at the hotels. La Real Fabrica de Puros Partagas (Partagas Royal Cigar Factory) is a very interesting place to visit because not only can you buy cigars here but they also offer tours of the factory. Rum The store at the Havana Club offers an extensive collection of rums, including the Solera San Cristobal, their most exclusive brand, created to celebrate Havana's 480th anniversary. Likewise, you'll find all sorts of quality souvenirs, such as Cuban music CDs, books about the history of rum and information about the best bars in town. There are other brands of Cuban rum that are not as well known as Havana Club but are also of a very good quality, such as Bucanero, Cienfuegos, La Palma, Mulato, and a few others."

"text": "What is a good Cuban cigar The debate has raged on for a very long time over which is the best Cuban cigar. The fact of the matter is, there are so many different and amazing Cuban cigar brands ( Cohiba, Montecristo, Partagas, etc) for you to choose from that it is impossible to choose just one. It has a lot to do with your personal taste because every cigar is going to be a little bit different. Even different cigars within the same brand are going to be unique in their own way, especially a high-end cigar that is made from great tobacco and is hand rolled. If you live in an area which allows Cuban cigars, those are by far the most popular. However, a real cigar connoisseur may have another favorite or perhaps several favorites from other areas of the world. Since it is impossible to really pin down which cigar is best, it is important for you to understand exactly what goes into a cigar and the different ways in which they are judged. People who love cigars really tend to be fanatical about the ones that they smoke. They may even have their own snipping and lighting ritual which they follow religiously every time that they light up. They would simply be out of their element if they didn’t have a high-end cigar in their hand."

Learning Objectives Describe the physical structures associated with fungi Key Takeaways Key Points Fungal cell walls are rigid and contain complex polysaccharides called chitin (adds structural strength) and glucans. Ergosterol is the steroid molecule in the cell membranes that replaces the cholesterol found in animal cell membranes. Fungi can be unicellular, multicellular, or dimorphic, which is when the fungi is unicellular or multicellular depending on environmental conditions. Fungi in the morphological vegetative stage consist of a tangle of slender, thread-like hyphae, whereas the reproductive stage is usually more obvious. Fungi like to be in a moist and slightly acidic environment; they can grow with or without light or oxygen. Fungi are saprophyte heterotrophs in that they use dead or decomposing organic matter as a source of carbon.

For example, you could say protists are heterotrophs or autotrophs, and animals are only heterotrophs. However, animals such as sea anemones and coral can be both. So, I would go with these three: 1. Multicellular animals, protists, single celled. However, there are some protists that are multicellular, like brown algae. 2."

Protists are both unicellular and multicellular, and heterotrophic and autotrophic. I don't know whether your \"\"multicellular\"\" means exclusively multicellular or not. Meanwhile, fungi are basically heterotrophic, since they consume dead organic matter. They are typically considered to be multicellular, but there are also unicellular fungi. The closest thing to a autotrophic fungus are the Radiotrophic Fungus, but that has only come up two or three years ago, so your textbook probably would view fungi as a heterotroph."

Domain Classification The living world is filled with a dizzying array of living things. Most of them are unseen, visible only under a microscope. These tiny organisms are unicellular, composed of only a single cell. The familiar plants, animals and fungi that we can see represent only a tiny fraction of life on Earth. These organisms, being made of more than one cell, are called multicellular. Biologists classify organisms by common features, particularly DNA and other aspects of biochemistry. The largest recognized category of living things is the domain."

Prokaryotic reproduction typically involves replication of DNA and binary fission of the cytoplasm to produce two identical offspring. Eukaryotes have a variety of methods of asexual reproduction, including binary fission, budding, fragmentation, spore formation and schizogony. Eukaryotes reproduce sexually, a process that involves the formation of sexual cells called gametes, and the subsequent fusion of two gametes to form a cell called a zygote. Describe the phases of mitosis distinguishing between chromosomes, chromatids, centromeres and spindles. Prophase- the cell condenses its DNA molecules into visible threads called chromatids. Two identical chromatids, sister DNA molecules are joined together in a region called a centromere to form one chromosome. A set of microtubules is constructed in the cystol to form a spindle."

Most coenocytic (multinucleated) or multicelluar fungi are composed of multiple filaments,called hyphae, grouped together into a discrete organism called a mycelium. The cell walls of mostfungi are of chitin compounds instead of cellulose; a group fungi known as cryptomycota lackchitinous cell walls. In many ways fungi are more closely related to animals than to plants, and theyhave been thought to share a common protist ancestor with animals. A recent classification systemsuggested by nucleic acid (genetic material) comparisons places the fungi with the animals and theplants in an overarching taxonomic group called the eukarya."

Anyone know the major differences between the two Update: Thanks, I know that.. but any other of differences?5 following 9 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Mold is a type of fungi (fungus)Ehrykkh · 1 decade ago3 1 Comment Fungi (singular fungus) are a kingdom of eukaryotic organisms. The fungi are heterotrophic organisms characterized by a chitinous cell wall, and in the majority of species, filamentous growth as multicellular hyphae forming a mycelium; some fungal species also grow as single cells. Sexual and asexual reproduction is via spores, often produced on specialized structures or in fruiting bodies. Yeasts, molds, and mushrooms are examples of fungi. The discipline of biology devoted to the study of fungi is known as mycology. Molds (or moulds, see spelling differences) include all species of microscopic fungi that grow in the form of multicellular filaments, called hyphae. [ 1] In contrast, microscopic fungi that grow as single cells are called yeasts. A connected network of these tubular branching hyphae has the same DNA and is considered a single organism, referred to as a colony or in more technical terms a mycelium. Molds do not form a specific taxonomic or phylogenetic grouping, but can be found in the divisions Zygomycota, Deuteromycota and Ascomycota."

Answered Jun 11, 2015 · Author has 105 answers and 304.5k answer views This is actually a really good question. A lot of people tend to get worried about the state of individuality of cells that live in colonies, like Volvox, which can form colonies of up to 50,000 cells. A unicellular organism is one which does not depend on other organisms for its survival even partially, and performs all basic functions of life on its own. In the case of Volvox, each cell performs all the basic functions of life on its own, i.e., it reproduces, feeds, respires and excretes on its own. However, they are present in aggregates. As a result, Volvox is said to be unicellular. In this manner, we are able to classify all organisms as unicellular or multicellular. Well, almost all. There are some organisms that are partially unicellular and partially multicellular, like Dictyostelium discoideum."

For biologists, doing this with all of the organisms there are on the earth, it makes it easier to study them!There are many different ways to group organisms.3 Early systems of classification Aristotle: plant or animal Then animals were further classified based on habitat and physical characteristics. Plants were further classified by size and structure, trees, shrubs This system did NOT take into account the changes and evolutionary history of the organisms.4 New systems of classification In the 18th century Carolus Linnaeus developed Taxonomy A branch of biology concerned with naming, identifying and classifying species based on morphological and behavioral similarities and differences. Linnaeus gave each organism 2 names A genus and a species name and called this binomial nomenclature.5 Taxonomy A systematic method of classifying plants and animals. Classification of organisms based on degrees of similarity representing evolutionary (phylogenetic) relatedness.6 Scientific Names Binomial nomenclature (Linnaeus)A 2 name system so that not two organisms will ever have the same name. The genus name is combined with a second name to make the species name unique. For example: humans Genus Homo Species Homo sapiens7 Why 2 names? The name are Latin ( the language of science)The first is the genus The second is the epithet or specific identifying name. They are both needed to identify the organism.

"text": "Tweet Key Difference: Fungi are a group of unicellular or multinucleate organisms that live and grow on decomposed matter. Plants are multicellular living organisms that are part of the Plantae Kingdom that are associated with having certain traits such as being multicellular, possessing cellulose, and having the ability to carry out photosynthesis. Plants and fungi play an important part in the survival of humans and other organisms on the planet. All living things were previously categorized into give distinct kingdoms including Kingdom Monera, Kingdom Fungi, Kingdom Protista, Kingdom Plantae and Kingdom Animalia. Though originally fungi were grouped under Plantae kingdom, it was later classified under its own kingdom due to its striking differences from plants. There are now six classified kingdoms that are present in many botany books in the United States. The additional kingdom is Kingdom Archaea, which was previously classified under Kingdom Bacteria. Humans belong in the Animalia kingdom. Fungi and plants are very different from each other. Fungi are a group of unicellular or multinucleate organisms that live and grow on decomposed matter."

Learning Objectives Describe the physical structures associated with fungi Key Takeaways Key Points Fungal cell walls are rigid and contain complex polysaccharides called chitin (adds structural strength) and glucans. Ergosterol is the steroid molecule in the cell membranes that replaces the cholesterol found in animal cell membranes. Fungi can be unicellular, multicellular, or dimorphic, which is when the fungi is unicellular or multicellular depending on environmental conditions. Fungi in the morphological vegetative stage consist of a tangle of slender, thread-like hyphae, whereas the reproductive stage is usually more obvious. Fungi like to be in a moist and slightly acidic environment; they can grow with or without light or oxygen. Fungi are saprophyte heterotrophs in that they use dead or decomposing organic matter as a source of carbon.

All the fungi except few (ex: yeast) form either hyphae or pseudohyphae. Both structures support spores for reproduction and dissemination by exhibiting various physiological and biochemical activities. These two structures along with yeast form are characteristic features of polymorphic fungi. What are Hyphae? Hyphae are defined as elongated, tubular, and branching filaments that form the mycelium (vegetative part of a fungus consisting of numerous filaments) of a fungus. A single hypha consists of one or more elongated tubular cells. Multicellular hyphae are internally divided by cross walls, septa (singular – septum) displaying a chain of closely packed cells. Hyphae with septa are called as septate hyphae and, on the other hand, hyphae without septa are called as aseptate hyphae. Fungi are classified according to above two characters which are based on cell division."

New York... Atlanta... Hollywood... Miami Love & Hip Hop is a media franchise that consists of several reality television series broadcast on VH1. The shows document the personal and professional lives of several hip hop and R&B musicians, performers, managers, and record producers residing in varying regions throughout the United States. The original franchise version, Love & Hip Hop: New York, premiered on March 6, 2011. Its success resulted in spin-offs located in Atlanta, Hollywood, and Miami. The series is known for its sprawling ensemble cast, with over 200 cast members. Many are notable figures in East Coast, West Coast and Southern hip hop, including Jim Jones, Remy Ma, Soulja Boy, Waka Flocka Flame, Lil Scrappy, Trina and Trick Daddy, as well as R&B artists like Ray J, Keyshia Cole and Stevie J. The franchise is also known for launching the careers of previously unknown artists, including Joseline Hernandez, K. Michelle and Cardi B. [1]The franchise has generated controversy since its inception, and is often criticised for tending towards a narrative format more commonly seen in scripted genres such as soap operas, and appearing to fabricate much of its storyline. However, it is one of the highest rated unscripted franchises in cable television history, [2] [3] [4] and has been described as \"\"riveting\"\", [5] \"\"addictive\"\", [6] \"\"bawdy and hilarious\"\", [7] and a \"\" guilty pleasure \"\". [ 8]The show has aired continuously since May 15, 2014, with an incarnation of the franchise airing nearly every Monday on VH1. In the United States, Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta usually airs in spring and through summer, followed by Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood in the fall and Love & Hip Hop: New York in the winter. As of March 19, 2018, 288 original episodes of New York, Atlanta, Hollywood and Miami have aired over twenty seasons."

"text": "\"Futon Frame Formats Futon frames come in different armstyles, sizes and colors. This can make picking the right futon a little more of a challenge unless you understand the basics. On this page, we have tried to simplify the process by briefly explaining the differences. Futon Frame Arm Rests Some armrests are wider than others which is why one futon might measure 76 inches wide while the other measures 86 inches wide. Do not assume that all full size futon frames, for example, are the same size. Futon Frame Sizes There are six basic futon sizes available. They are queen sofa, full sofa, loveseat, twin, single (cot size) and chair. Each size is meant to help fill the customers' space requirements. The illustration below will show you all the futon formats . Queen and Full Size Futons Queen and full size futons have mattress that go length-wise between the arms."

Luckily, there are a few ways you can hack your mattress to make it better, without necessarily spending a lot or buying a new one. Your options will depend on the shape of your existing mattress and on how firm or soft you’d prefer it to be. Make a Mattress Firmer If your existing mattress is too soft, there are a couple ways to increase firmness. Keep in mind that if your bed has lost its supportiveness and is causing pain, these hacks may not make a major difference in comfort.1. Check Your Foundation If a mattress is not properly supported, it can be prone to sagging. Make sure your boxspring still offers firm, resilient support, or that your foundation is solid. Also ensure your steel frame is in good shape (kings and queen size often need center bars/feet for adequate support). If you use slats, ensure they aren’t sagging or broken, and that they’re no more than three inches apart. If your foundation isn’t in good shape, replacing it can improve firmness."

Room with tatami flooring and shōji A tatami ( 畳) is a type of mat used as a flooring material in traditional Japanese -style rooms. Traditionally made using rice straw to form the core, the cores of contemporary tatami are sometimes composed of compressed wood chip boards or polystyrene foam. With a covering of woven soft rush ( igusa 藺草) straw, tatami are made in standard sizes, with the length exactly twice the width, an aspect ratio of 2:1. Usually, on the long sides, they have edging ( heri 縁) of brocade or plain cloth, although some tatami have no edging.

"text": "\"Retrospect Quick History: Tatami Mats Anna Hoffman Sep 27, 2012Share Email Tatami mats on the floor of the Old Okada House, built in 1674 Tatami mats are a kind of rush flooring used in traditional Japanese homes. Made of woven rush grass around a rice straw core, they are gentle but firm underfoot, and also give off a lovely (I think) scent, especially on rainy or humid days. Increasingly rare in modern Japanese interiors, tatami deserves to be considered as a potential material in all homes. Let's take a look at its rich history. A shoin -style room at the Met, modeled after a temple guest residence built in 1600 Tatami mats have been around since at least the Nara period (710-794), when the word appeared in the oldest Japanese book, Kojiki, or \"\"Record of Ancient Matters\"\", written in 712. In the Heian period (794-1185), they were placed on top of wooden floors as seating for nobles. The nobility and samurai would also sleep on tatami mats, called goza, while commoners slept on straw or straw mats (like commoners in the West). It wasn't until the late Muromachi period (around the 16th century) that tatami mats were used to cover entire floors. Rooms covered with tatami were known as zashiki, which translates to 'rooms spread out for sitting.' The sizes of rooms were thereafter measured by how many tatami mats could fit there; a typical room was 4.5 mat, and the placement of the mats depended on what the room was used for."

"text": "Folded into halves or thirds as part of convertible furniture, futon mattresses can appear smaller than standard beds. They do, however, come in the same standard sizes as most beds, including twin, full and queen. Although queen-size futon mattresses are slightly longer, the width of the futon frame can tell you what size mattress is needed. Most foldout futon couches are queen-size mattresses. Twin Twin futons are not as common as full and queen but are available as a standard size. They are usually sold as convertible chairs. During the day the futon can be folded into a chair that seats one person and at night unfolded into a bed for one person. A twin futon mattress is 39 inches wide by 75 inches long, the same size as a standard twin spring or foam mattress. Full Full-size futon mattresses are more common than twin but not as popular as queen-size mattresses. Convertible love seat futons are usually the same size as a standard full bed when laid out flat."

"text": "Related Articles How to Convert Bed Sheets for Bunk Beds Daybed Mattress vs. Twin Mattress The Differences Between Trundle and Twin Mattresses How to Create a King Bed From Twin Beds In many cases, a twin-sized mattress is exactly what is needed for a bunk bed. When it comes to a typical bunk with both mattresses the same size, most manufacturers make the bunk bed to accept a standard twin mattress. But not all bunk beds are created equally -- some feature a twin bed on top, a full on the bottom or even a futon for the bottom bunk area. Bunk Mattress Basics A typical bunk bed for a child's room features two twin mattresses. A twin mattress is 39 inches wide and 75 inches long. But a different type of twin mattress exist: a twin XL. The extra long variety has the same width, but an extra five inches of length at 80 inches long. The extra long twin has the same length as a queen or king mattress. If you are unsure which type of twin mattress is right for a narrow bunk, measure the length inside the bed area where the mattress belongs. A bunk mattress should fit snugly within the frame or enclosure for maximum safety."

Dell Inspiron 15 5000 Series review: This 15-inch notebook disappoints Dell targets younger audience with 360-degree laptops and thin, light... Video Hands-on with Dell's powerful new XPS 15At a Glance Hewlett Packard Envy x360Like some other moderately priced 15-inch-class touchscreen laptops we’ve seen of late, the HP Envy x360 is too heavy and too slow to be a road-warrior’s dream machine. But the handsome high-res display and acrobatic 360-degree hinge on this $770 unit will appeal to multimedia aficionados. Weighing in at about 5.3 pounds—typical bulk for a mainstream laptop with a 15.6-inch display—the silvery Envy x360’s sturdy hinges let you use it as a standard laptop; fold back the lid and balance the unit on two edges in a tent configuration; place the keyboard face down and keep the display facing you in stand configuration; or fold the display back completely onto the back of the keyboard to create a thick and bulky tablet. You'll want the optional higher-resolution display that was included in our eval unit. Spreading 1366x768 pixels over a 15.6-inch screen would look terrible. Options lifted this unit’s price $90 higher than the starting price of $680 for the base config. The extras included an additional 2GB of RAM (bringing the total to 8GB) and a 1920-by-1080 multitouch display (versus the base unit’s 1366-by-768 resolution). Other key components include an Intel Core i5-4210U mobile CPU and a 500GB hard drive spinning at 5400 rpm. [ Further reading: Our picks for best PC laptops ]A slow hard drive hampered the Envy x360's benchmark performance. Performance was about what we’d expect given those specs, which means they weren’t particularly impressive."

The HP Touch Smart tx2z is the first consumer notebook and tablet PC that offers on-screen multi-touch control. Forget about using the notebook’s touchpad or an external mouse. If you see something on the screen you want to press or move just reach up and touch it. HP’s new “Media Smart” software allows you to use your fingertips to take command of everything on the screen with a quick touch or simple gestures. Is this the future of laptop computing?

The overall chassis design is nothing new; the design is virtually the same as the tx2500 with the only obvious change being the new glossy “Reaction” Imprint Finish which is a dark gray rather than silver seen on the previous generation. HP’s Imprint Finish always looks cool but the glossy surface is a fingerprint magnet and HP even includes a polishing cloth because this notebook will start picking up finger smudges after just a few minutes."

"text": "\"Home > Laptops > First Look: HP Stream 11, $199 Windows Laptopby Eric Grevstad First Look: HP Stream 11, $199 Windows Laptop Posted October 1, 2014Saying that thin and light notebooks have tended to be expensive while low-cost laptops have been thick and clunky, HP has unveiled a family of ultra-affordable Windows slimlines. The $199 model seen here, the Stream 11, will ship in November alongside the $229 Stream 13, joining the $299 Stream 14 available now. All combine the popular Chromebook recipe—using apps and storing files in the cloud—with the familiar Windows 8.1 interface and the option of installing and running a few local apps for offline use, though not many as the systems have just 32GB of flash storage instead of roomy hard drives. We had a chance to get our hands on the Stream 11 at its debut at a New York press event this week.

Prev Stop Next Photo 2 of 7HP Stream 13 and 11The 13.3-inch Stream 13 (shown at left) will feature two options not listed for the Stream 11: a touch screen and 200MB of free 4G data per month with no annual contract for the life of the device. HP admits 200MB isn't much for Web surfing, but might be just the ticket for occasional e-mail emergencies when Wi-Fi isn't available; users who go over the limit can buy more data from carrier T-Mobile.

If you want to send or receive more pages per month, you can upgrade to the e Fax Plus® service, and your account is charged a monthly fee. When you use e Fax®, your document is scanned by the printer, sent wirelessly to e Fax's® server, and then on to the receiving fax number.

"text": "\"Laptop Computers494 results Being a road warrior means staying connected to the office is a top priority. Your phone can help with many tasks, but a laptop computer is the best way to handle heavy-duty assignments. Laptop computers come in a wide variety of sizes and performance capabilities, so you can find the one that best suits your needs. If you'd like to see more options, browse for more laptops, including versatile 2-in-1 laptops and PC laptops.2-in-1 Laptops A 2-in-1 laptop is a great way to blend the portability of a tablet with the power of a full-size laptop. Look for a detachable design that lets you take the tablet with you while you travel into meetings or when you're away from the office, while a convertible design offers an easy-to-use touch screen. Chromebooks A Chromebook is a great choice if you need a highly portable device that won't take up much space in your bag or backpack. Chromebooks are designed without optical drives and expansive hard drives, relying on storing apps and programs in the Cloud for easy use just about anywhere with Internet access. Ultrabooks If you spend all day in meetings or in classrooms without access to a power plug, think about choosing an Ultrabook. These devices are designed to offer high performance while still providing all-day battery life, so you can stay connected and productive, even when you won't be near a power outlet for hours at a time. Touch-Screen Laptops A touch screen offers easy, intuitive use."

"text": "\"Management & Mobility HP Stream 7 First Impressions Well, it doesn't suck Paul Thurrott | Nov 12, 2014I'm not sure if HP is trying to singlehandedly make the case for high-quality, low-cost Windows devices, but between the HP Stream 11 and HP Stream 7, a new 7-inch mini-tablet, the company is off to a great start. I looked at the HP Stream 11 last week ( HP Stream 11 First Impressions ). Here, I'll take a quick peek at the HP Stream 7. First, it's just $100. Now, you may recall that this isn't the first mini-tablet in this price range to appear in time for the 2014 holiday season: that dubious distinction belongs to the Toshiba Encore Mini, a tablet whose screen is so unusable I declined to even review it. But the HP Stream 7 is another breed entirely. In fact, despite some obvious similarities, these two machines couldn't be more different. That said, it's still a $100 tablet. You're not going to get the stunning build quality, thin and light design, Touch ID sensor, or other niceties found on more expensive mini-tablets like Apple's i Pad Mini 3. But then you could purchase four HP Stream 7 tablets for the price of a single entry-level i Pad Mini 3."

That can't be good news for Microsoft, which used to own the market for cheap computers. Not one to take this sort of encroachment lying down, Microsoft came out with a lower-cost version of Windows 8.1 that PC makers could use to build small, lightweight devices inexpensive enough to take on Chromebooks. The HP Stream 11 is among the first of these so-called Chromebook killers: an 11.6-inch laptop running full Windows and priced at just $200. For the money, it looks and performs like a netbook, with a colorful plastic shell and an Intel Celeron processor chugging away under the hood. Then again, though, you also have the option of installing traditional desktop apps, which you can't do on a Chromebook, and Microsoft is further sweetening the deal by throwing in a terabyte of One Drive storage and a yearlong subscription to Office 365. So is this just netbooks, redux? Or does an aggressive price make all the difference?

"text": "News Best 2-in-1 laptop 2018: the best convertible laptops ranked Best 2-in-1 laptop 2018: the best convertible laptops ranked By Kevin Lee 2018-04-06T19:40:00.95Z Laptops Tech Radar's picks of the best 2-in-1 laptops Once you’ve experienced computing on a 2-in-1 laptop, you won’t want to go back. On the other hand, once you’ve taken the best 2-in-1 laptop for a spin, it’s impossible return to a normal, old non-convertible notebook. Judging by a recent patent filed by Microsoft, smartphones could soon follow in the footsteps of these versatile machines with their flexible hinges. In 2018, you have a wide range of devices to choose from that can comfortably rest on your desk. And, you don’t have to settle for less-than-ideal performance either – as they’re all as fast as any ‘conventional’ laptop you can get your hands on. And, once we start seeing the best 2-in-1 laptops rocking those new U series 8th-generation Coffee Lake CPUs, they’re only going to get quicker and more efficient. Sure, the Mac Book Pro might seem enticing, but it’s not rocking an 8th-generation Intel processor or a 4K display. The best 2-in-1 laptops, however, do. And, as a bonus, they’re so much more fun to use, thanks to their touchscreen capabilities. Most of the best 2-in-1 laptops are convertible, meaning they rotate on a hinge and you’ll accidentally touch the keyboard a lot when they’re in tablet mode."

"text": "Answered by The Wiki Answers ®Community Answers.com ® is making the world better one answer at a time. Most likely yes but there are all types of answers to the question. Here are some opinions from the Wiki Answers community: Yes, all humans originated in Africa. Scientists have determined that the region that is now Ethiopia was a likely place for the first humans to have evolved. From there they slowly spread out. At this time the geography of the world was slightly different and humans were able to travel extremely far and over land bridges, all the way to the continents known as the America's today. The first place that settled humans started to settle as farmers rather than hunter gatherers was in the middle-east near Iraq. This is where many of the world's oldest history comes from. The earliest species of Homo (members of our genus) did evolve and live only in Africa. However, later species such as Homo erectus increased their distribution and expanded into other areas of the globe."

Food availability is probably the most common reason is just following or finding new sources of food. But the reasons for the lack of availability are numerous. Climate change, competition, disaster, disease, land fatigue and aggression. Humans evolved as foragers. Farming and animal husbandry are very recent developments, maybe no more than 10 thousand years at most. That's really a short period of time considering our current species has been around for maybe 100 thousand years. The availability of food ends up becoming scarce for one or more of the reasons I've mentioned, so our ancestors need to look a little farther afield each day."

The origins of enslaved Africans were largely dependent on European preferences as well as the availability of potential laborers within Africa. Rice production was a key industry of many colonial South Carolina low country plantations. Accordingly, rice plantations owners within South Carolina often requested enslaved Africans from the so-called “Grain Coast” of western Africa (Senegal to Sierra Leone). Studies on the African origins of the enslaved within other regions of the Americas have been limited. To address the issue of origins of people of African descent within the Americas and understand more about the genetic heterogeneity present within Africa and the African Diaspora, we typed Y chromosome specific markers in 1,319 men consisting of 508 west and central Africans (from 12 populations), 188 Caribbeans (from 2 islands), 532 African Americans (AAs from Washington, DC and Columbia, SC), and 91 European Americans. Principal component and admixture analyses provide support for significant Grain Coast ancestry among African American men in South Carolina. AA men from DC and the Caribbean showed a closer affinity to populations from the Bight of Biafra. Furthermore, 30–40% of the paternal lineages in African descent populations in the Americas are of European ancestry."

The disease has killed 20 million people worldwide, and it is estimated that 40 million more are infected with HIV (human immunodeficiency virus), the virus that causes AIDS. Ask your physician where AIDS came from and he or she will probably tell you the epidemic started when monkeys or chimps in the African bush transferred the AIDS virus (HIV) to a person while butchering primate meat for food or through an animal bite. For the first two decades of the epidemic the green monkey theory of AIDS was widely heralded in the major media, and was accepted without question by leading AIDS experts and educators. The theory was so universally popular (except in Africa) that it easily became fact in the minds of most people. Robert Gallo, M. D., and the Green Monkey Theory The AIDS virus was first discovered by Robert Gallo at the National Cancer Institute in April 1984. Shortly thereafter Luc Montagnier of the Pasteur Institute in Paris claimed that he (and not Gallo) had first discovered the AIDS virus. A bitter lawsuit followed, which was finally settled privately in 1987 through the intervention of the French Premier and President Ronald Reagan. To this day, the two 'co-discoverers' of HIV continue to disagree about the origin of HIV and the birthplace of AIDS. In Montagnier's book, Virus (2000), he states: \"\"The origin of the epidemic remains a mystery, and the virus seems older than the epidemic\"\" and \"\"it is important to distinguish between the origins of the virus and that of the (AIDS) epidemic. \"\""

Regrettably, within mainstream press and academia circles, there seems to be a conspicuous – and dare we say it – deliberate vacuum when it comes to reporting news of these recent studies and their obvious implications. This article was inspired by a comment made recently by Australian historian Greg Jefferys. So before continuing a scientific assessment of DNA evidence, we will first open this discussion by outlining Greg Jefferys’ comments. The whole ‘Out of Africa’ myth has its roots in the mainstream academic campaign in the 1990’s to remove the concept of Race. When I did my degree they all spent a lot of time on the ‘Out of Africa’ thing but it’s been completely disproved by genetics. Mainstream still hold on to it. It did begin the early 90’s. And the academics most responsible for cementing both the Out-of Africa theory and the complementary common ancestral African mother – given the name of “Eve” – in the public arena and nearly every curriculum, were Professors Alan C. Wilson and Rebecca L. Cann."

Archaeologists unearthed the bones of at least five people at Jebel Irhoud, a former barite mine 100km west of Marrakesh, in excavations that lasted years. They knew the remains were old, but were stunned when dating tests revealed that a tooth and stone tools found with the bones were about 300,000 years old. Why we're closer than ever to a timeline for human evolution Read more“My reaction was a big ‘wow’,” said Jean-Jacques Hublin, a senior scientist on the team at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig. “ I was expecting them to be old, but not that old. ”Hublin said the extreme age of the bones makes them the oldest known specimens of modern humans and poses a major challenge to the idea that the earliest members of our species evolved in a “Garden of Eden” in East Africa one hundred thousand years later. “This gives us a completely different picture of the evolution of our species. It goes much further back in time, but also the very process of evolution is different to what we thought,” Hublin told the Guardian. “ It looks like our species was already present probably all over Africa by 300,000 years ago. If there was a Garden of Eden, it might have been the size of the continent."

The average \"\"lifespan\"\" of a mammal species, measured by its duration in the fossil record, is around 10 million years. While hominids have followed a separate evolutionary path since their divergence from the ape lineage, around 7 million years ago, our own species ( Homo sapiens) is much younger. Fossils classified as archaic H. sapiens appear about 400,000 years ago, and the earliest known modern humans date back only 170,000 years. Our knowledge of human evolution is changing rapidly, as new fossils are discovered and described every year. Thirty years ago, it was generally accepted that humans and the great apes last shared a common ancestor perhaps 16-20 million years ago, and that the separate human branch was occupied by only a few species, each evolving from the one before. Now we know, through a combination of new fossil finds and molecular biology, that humans and chimpanzees diverged as little as 7 million years ago, and that our own lineage is \"\"bushy\"\", with many different species in existence at the same time. Our view of our evolutionary past has changed as social attitudes have changed. Darwin was remarkably prescient when he wrote, in 1871 \"\"The Descent of Man\"\", that humans had evolved in Africa and were closely related to the great apes (gorilla, chimpanzee, and orang-utan). But at that time this view was anathema to many, since the majority of people still accepted the concept of special creation."

Hahn 2Author information ► Copyright and License information ►This article has been cited by other articles in PMC. Go to: Abstract Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) of humans is caused by two lentiviruses, human immunodeficiency viruses types 1 and 2 (HIV-1 and HIV-2). Here, we describe the origins and evolution of these viruses, and the circumstances that led to the AIDS pandemic. Both HIVs are the result of multiple cross-species transmissions of simian immunodeficiency viruses (SIVs) naturally infecting African primates. Most of these transfers resulted in viruses that spread in humans to only a limited extent. However, one transmission event, involving SIVcpz from chimpanzees in southeastern Cameroon, gave rise to HIV-1 group M—the principal cause of the AIDS pandemic. We discuss how host restriction factors have shaped the emergence of new SIV zoonoses by imposing adaptive hurdles to cross-species transmission and/or secondary spread. We also show that AIDS has likely afflicted chimpanzees long before the emergence of HIV. Tracing the genetic changes that occurred as SIVs crossed from monkeys to apes and from apes to humans provides a new framework to examine the requirements of successful host switches and to gauge future zoonotic risk."

The earliest ancestors of humankind are known as Australopithecines - commonly known as 'ape men'. Australopithecus Launched in Africa\"\"There is no question that Africans contributed towards the development of human beings as we know them today.

He found the skull of a six-year-old creature with an ape-like appearance but human characteristics. Australopithecines were small, with long arms, prominent skulls and small brains and retained the ability to climb trees. Since 1925 there have been numerous finds of Australopithecus fossils in East and Southern Africa, mainly based around the Great Rift Valley - a fracture in the earth's surfaces that runs 3,500 kilometres from the Red Sea to Mozambique."

By Rolf Quam, Binghamton University, State University of New York New fossil finds over the past few years have been forcing anthropologists to reexamine our evolutionary path to becoming human. Now the earliest modern human fossil ever found outside the continent of Africa is pushing back the date for when our ancestors left Africa. The fossil, an upper left jawbone with most of the teeth attached, comes from Misliya Cave in Israel and dates to 177,000-194,000 years ago. This is considerably older than any other remains from our own species, Homo sapiens, ever discovered outside of Africa, and it coincides with several other recent studies that are changing the view on our evolutionary origins and migration throughout the Old World. African origins, then spreading from there The earliest humans, referred to as hominins by anthropologists, lived around six to 7 million years ago in Africa. These early evolutionary ancestors are recognized as belonging to the human family mainly because their bones reveal clear signs of bipedalism: They walked on two feet. It was not until around 2 million years ago that human ancestors first migrated out of Africa and spread throughout the Old World. Up until recently, anthropologists generally held that Homo sapiens first appeared around 200,000 years ago, in Africa."

[ 1] It is one of the earliest hominins, which are those hominids that comprise the original members and species of the human clade after splitting from the line of the chimpanzees. Homo ergaster is variously thought to be ancestral to, or as sharing a common ancestor with, or as being the same species as, Homo erectus. [ 2] [3]Interpreting Homo ergaster inevitably leads to Homo erectus, particularly regarding the taxonomy issues that persist within the scientific community of classifying the two species and separating their two lineages—if indeed they represent two separate lineages rather than one. [ 4] Some palaeoanthropologists consider H. ergaster to be a variety of H. erectus, that is, the so-called African Homo erectus. Others call H. ergaster the direct ancestor of H. erectus, which then emigrated out of Africa into Eurasia and branched into a distinct species. Still others dispense with the specific epithet ergaster and make no such distinctions among fossils assigned to erectus. [ 5]The latest discoveries at Dmanisi, Georgia, suggest that all the contemporary groups of early Homo in Africa, including Homo ergaster, are of the same species and should be assigned to Homo erectus.

"text": "Science When Humans Became Human By JOHN NOBLE WILFORD FEB. 26, 2002Correction Appended On the biggest steps in early human evolution scientists are in agreement. The first human ancestors appeared between five million and seven million years ago, probably when some apelike creatures in Africa began to walk habitually on two legs. They were flaking crude stone tools by 2.5 million years ago. Then some of them spread from Africa into Asia and Europe after two million years ago. With somewhat less certainty, most scientists think that people who look like us -- anatomically modern Homo sapiens -- evolved by at least 130,000 years ago from ancestors who had remained in Africa. Their brain had reached today's size. They, too, moved out of Africa and eventually replaced nonmodern human species, notably the Neanderthals in Europe and parts of Asia, and Homo erectus, typified by Java Man and Peking Man fossils in the Far East. But agreement breaks down completely on the question of when, where and how these anatomically modern humans began to manifest creative and symbolic thinking. That is, when did they become fully human in behavior as well as body?"

It is now clear that early Homo sapiens, or modern humans, did not come after the Neandertals but were their contemporaries. However, it is likely that both modern humans and Neandertals descended from Homo heidelbergensis. Compared to the Neandertals and other late archaic humans, modern humans generally have more delicate skeletons. Their skulls are more rounded and their brow ridges generally protrude much less. They rarely have the occipital buns found on the back of Neandertal skulls. They also have relatively high foreheads, smaller faces, and pointed chins. Neandertal modern Homo sapiens The first fossils of early modern humans to be identified were found in 1868 at the 27 ,000 -23,000 year old Cro-Magnon rock shelter site near the village of Les Eyzies in southwestern France.

The magnetic field can twist any oblong magnetic objects (such as iron rods, or bits of iron powder,) so they align to follow particular directions.

This force is known as a magnetic force and may either attract or repel. While all known materials exert some sort of magnetic force, it is so small in most materials that it is not readily noticeable. With other materials, the magnetic force is much larger, and these are referred to as magnets. The Earth itself is a huge magnet. Some magnets, known as permanent magnets, exert a force on objects without any outside influence. The iron ore magnetite, also known as lodestone, is a natural permanent magnet. Other permanent magnets can be made by subjecting certain materials to a magnetic force. When the force is removed, these materials retain their own magnetic properties. Although the magnetic properties may change over time or at elevated temperatures, these materials are generally considered to be permanently magnetized, hence the name."

"text": "How Does a Magnet Attract Metal? July 25, 2014 by Karen Hill | Filed Under: Accomplishments A magnet is a metal that can pull pieces of iron toward itself and make them cling to it. A horseshoe magnet pointed at a clip will make it jump up from a table and cling to the magnet until it is pulled off. The horseshoe magnet has two poles, or ends, a positive and a negative one. If you put the two positive poles of two magnets together, nothing happens. But if you touch the positive pole of one magnet to the negative of the other, you feel a strong pull. This is because opposite poles attract each other. The reason the magnet attracts iron objects is that it sets up an invisible atmosphere around itself called a magnetic field. When a pm or nail is in that field, it becomes a little magnet too. Ordinarily, the billions of atoms in the nail are packed in a scattered way, but when the nail enters a magnetic field, more and more of its positive atom poles point in one direction, toward the negative pole of the big magnet, and more and more of its negative atom poles point the other way, to the big magnet’s positive pole."

When two magnets come near each other, their fields create forces that attract or repel. The Earth is itself a huge magnet, and the force its field exerts on other magnets makes them point in a north–south direction. This effect is used in the magnetic compass.

Even before the discovery of electricity, scientists invented compasses, tiny strips of naturally occurring magnets that rotate to align with the Earth's magnetic field. Since the field moves from south to north, the compass needle always point to the northern magnetic pole. Now we mass-produce magnets and understand how they work. Magnetic Fields When two metals are attracted to each other across space, one or both of them are probably magnetic. You may be most familiar with permanent magnets, which are stronger magnets because they have iron in them. This type of magnetism is called ferromagnetism. The Earth's magnetic field is caused by the movements of the molten nickel-iron core of the planet and can be seen when tiny charged particles from the sun collide with Earth's atmosphere close to our planet's magnetic poles, causing them to emit light as they do so."

Ed Stainless (Materials) 29 Mar 07 18:02First, 600 is nonmagnetic. If you think that you have a piece that is, then it is marked wrong. Second, the tradename \"\"Inconel\"\" is a marketing device, it does not mean anything metallurgically. The alloys that are marketed under that general name are all high in Ni content, but very different in alloy elements and properties. the name is used to distinguish Ni based alloys from Fe based alloys (called Incoloy).

It is a common mistake that children think that all metals are attracted to magnets.....but let's find out the truth..... Home Australian curriculum focus Science / Year 4 / Science Understanding / Physical sciences / ACSSU076Content Description: Forces can be exerted by one object on another through direct contact or from a distance Elaboration: Exploring the forces of attraction and repulsion between magnets Everyday Exposure Most students should have some experience with fridge magnets, compass and possible magnetic toys.misconception explored Misconception One: All metals are attracted to magnets. Students may have the misconception that because magnets attract certain types of metals (iron, nickel etc) that all metals would be attracted to magnets ( Crockett 2004; Ashbrook 2005; Barrow 2000). This misconception originates with the false understanding and classification that all metals are the same. Research suggests misconceptions should be corrected using a hands on approach where students observe and make notes about how magnets work (Crockett 2004 & Ashbrook 2005 ). Misconception explained: Magnets only attract certain types of metals ( ferromagnetic material) other materials such as glass, plastic and wood aren't attracted. Metals such as iron, nickel and cobalt are attracted to magnets. ( Science Kids, 2015). Most metals however are not attracted to magnets ( Non- magnetic material ), these include copper, silver, gold, magnesium, platinum, aluminium and more. Alloy (see below for definition) products with base of iron, nickel and cobalt will also be attracted to magnets."

Continue Reading Keep Learning What Kind of Things Do Magnets Attract? What Metals Are Attracted to Magnets? Why Do Magnets Attract Metal? Full Answer All materials have tiny internal magnetic fields called domains, but in these three ferromagnetic metals, the internal magnetic domains are uniformly aligned to give them a magnetic field. In all other elements, the internal magnets are either randomly oriented or cancel each other out, which is why these other metals don't have a magnetic field. The ferromagnetic metals are often combined with other metals to create alloys, which also have magnetic properties. For instance, steel is an alloy made from iron that is magnetic, although not to the same degree as pure iron."

"text": "4. ESSENTIAL NUTRIENTS - CARBOHYDRATES4.1 Carbohydrates After the proteins and lipids, the carbohydrates represent the third most abundant group of organic compounds in the animal body. By contrast, carbohydrates constitute the major class of organic nutrients within plant tissues. The carbohydrate group includes such important compounds as glucose, fructose, sucrose, lactose, starch, glycogen, chitin, and cellulose. Carbohydrates are usually defined as substances containing carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, with the last two elements being present in the same ratio as in water (ie. Cx (H 2 O)y ). Although this definition is satisfactory for the majority of compounds present within this group, a few carbohydrates contain a lower proportion of oxygen than that in water or exist as carbohydrate derivatives which may contain nitrogen and sulphur.4.1.1 Classification The carbohydrates can be divided into two major groups according to their chemical structure; the sugars and non-sugars (Table 8). The simplest sugars are called monosaccharides, and these inturn can be divided into five sub-groups depending on the number of carbon atoms present in the molecule: Trioses (C 3 H 6 O 3 ), Tetroses (C 4 H 8 O 4 ), Pentoses (C 5 H 10 O 5 ), and Hexoses (C 6 H 12 O 6 ) These monosaccharides may also inturn be linked together (with the elimination of water) to form di, tri or polysaccharides containing two, three or more monosaccharide units or residues respectively. Here the term ‘sugar’ is restricted to those carbohydrates containing less than 10 monosaccharide units. Non-sugars are therefore carbohydrates which contain more than 10 monosaccharide units and which do not possess a sweet taste."

In addition, certain types of carbohydrates, such as fiber and resistant starches don't get taken into your body for energy, but play important health-promoting roles in your gastrointestinal tract, supporting digestion and absorption, and helping you eliminate toxins and waste products. Carbohydrates are are composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, which are arranged into small units called sugars, or monosaccharides. Small carbohydrates, like glucose or sucrose (table sugar) are composed of one or two sugar units, respectively, and are the molecules that give food a sweet taste. These molecules are sometimes called \"\"simple sugars\"\" because they are small (only one or two units), and are quickly digested, providing immediate energy to the body. Larger carbohydrate molecules, which include fibers and starches, are composed of at least 10 monosaccharides linked together. These large carbohydrates, called polysaccharides (poly=many) may contain up to several hundred monosaccharides linked together in different ways. Another term commonly used to describe carbohydrates is oligosaccharides, a type of carbohydrate molecule that is in-between polysaccharides and monosaccharides in size, and features two to ten monosaccharides bonded together. Let's look at each of these types of carbohydrates and how the food you eat influences the quality of these important nutrients you receive. The Simple Sugars: Monosaccharides and Disaccharides Monosaccharides Monosaccharides are true simple sugars since, as one sugar unit only, they exist in the form in which they can be directly absorbed into your body upon ingestion."

Most simple sugars (monosaccharides) conform to the basic formula (CH2O)n and possess an aldehyde or ketone functional group. Monosaccharides (the simplest carbohydrates ) can:provide ready energy,be converted to other types of organic molecules,be used as monomers for polymers (macromolecules). Examples: glucose, fructose, galactose Disaccharides consist of two monosaccharide monomers covalently linked by a glycosidic bond. They function in sugar transport. Examples:maltose (2 glucoses),lactose (glucose+galactose),sucrose (glucose+fructose)Polysaccharides serve as storage or structural molecules. Many common polysaccharides are made of the monosaccharide glucose. Examples:structural polysaccharides: cellulose , chitinstorage polysaccharides: glycogen (animal starch); amylose (plant starch)Glucose Glucose like other sugars can exist in a straight chain form or it can loop back on itself and become a ring. If the hydroxyl group on the first carbon atom points down when the ring is formed alpha glucose results and if the hydroxyl group points up the result is beta glucose.alpha glucose When glucose molecules are enzymatically joined to form a disaccharide a water molecule is removed.

Other figures are taken from different internet sources)FIntroduction All life forms, from single cell to multicellular organisms, strictly maintain an internal environment that is chemically different from the external environment. This inner chemical environment is capable of carrying out the most basic functions of life: building cells and tissues, producing energy, transporting solutes into and outside cells, multiplying, communicating with other cells, and so on. Some cells and tissues are also capable of carrying out less common tasks, such as motion and detoxification of foreign elements. What is it which makes the inner environment of living cells and tissues so different than the one outside? A comparison between the two environments shows that both are built from the same chemical elements (Figure 1): Figure 1However, a closer look reveals that living organisms are enriched with the elements carbon (C) and hydrogen (H). Animate matter contains large quantities of oxygen and minerals like silicon, but only minute quantities of carbon and hydrogen. What is the significance of that? – it mainly has to do with the ability of carbon to form four chemical (covalent) bonds."

In fact, the principles governing the organization of three-dimensional structure are common to all of them, so we will consider them together. We will begin with the monomer units.monosaccharide -- for carbohydratenucleotide -- for nucleic acidsamino acid -- for proteins We will describe the features of representative monomers, and see how the monomers join to form a polymer. We will then look at the monomers in each major type of macromolecule to see what specific structural contributions come from each. The three-dimensional structure of each type of macromolecule will then be considered at several levels of organization. We will investigate macromolecular interactions and how structural complementarity plays a role in them. The stories for proteins, monosaccharides and nucleotides are just variations on the same theme. So you'll need to learn only one pattern, then apply that pattern to the other systems. We will conclude this section of the course with a consideration of denaturation and renaturation -- the forces involved in loss of a macromolecule's native structure (that is, its normal 3-dimensional structure), and how that structure, once lost, can be regained."

A monosaccharide, most often called a simple sugar, is the simplest form of carbohydrate. Monosaccharides all have the same basic structure, symbolized with the chemical formula (CH2O)n, in which “n” stands for the number of carbon atoms. These molecules tend to have isomers, meaning they have the same formula but different structures. These assorted structures carry out a variety of biological functions in living cells, whether they're from single-celled bacteria or multicellular plants and animals. Biological Forms of Monosaccharides Monosaccharides are characterized by the number of carbon atoms their molecules contain. Monosaccharides with the formula C6H12O6 include glucose, galactose and fructose, which are sugars used by organisms for energy. Xylose is a five-carbon monosaccharide, called a pentose, found in plant cells; this monosaccharide combines with xylan to form woody materials, such as those that make up trees.

These are carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, minerals, fiber and water. It is important to consume these seven nutrients on a daily basis to build and maintain health. Deficiencies, excesses and imbalances in diet can produce negative impacts on health, which may lead to diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, scurvy, obesity, or osteoporosis as well as psychological and behavioral problems. According to the reports of the United Nations World Health Organization (WHO: 1996), more than starvation the real challenge in developing nations today is malnutrition-the deficiency of micronutrients (vitamins, minerals and essential amino acids) that no longer allows the body to ensure growth and maintain its vital functions.

"text": "Building Blocks of Carbohydrates Monosaccharides which are present in simple carbohydrates, are the building blocks of carbohydrates. But then why are the complex carbohydrates cited to be healthier for our body? Read on to find out... Carbohydrates are the basic source of energy for most living organisms. They are an organic compound made up of oxygen, hydrogen, and carbon. Carbohydrates are also called saccharides, that are divided into four major groups, namely, monosaccharides, disaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides. Amongst these major groups, monosaccharides and disaccharides like lactose, glucose, sucrose, and fructose, are referred to as sugars. Carbohydrates are involved in maintaining and regulating the functions of the human central nervous system, activating protein functions and fiber absorption, and providing the energy which is required to perform the daily chores. Carbohydrates are one of the building blocks of the body, that interact with molecules of other organic compounds like fats, proteins and nucleic acids, for proper functioning of a healthy human body. In the following section of the article, we will try to learn more about the basic structure of carbohydrates and their major health effects. Monosaccharides To answer the above question in a single line, one can say that monosaccharides are the building blocks of carbohydrates."

Each of these atoms can form a specified number of chemical bonds: carbon forms 4, oxygen forms 2, and hydrogen forms 1. The 3 monosaccharides (glucose, fructose, and galactose)all have the same chemical formula (C6H12O6), but their structures differ. The 3 disaccharides (maltose, sucrose, and lactose) are pairs of monosaccharides, each containing a glucose paired with one of the 3 monosaccharides. The sugars derive primarily from plants, except for lactose and its component galactose, which come from milk and milk products."

Carbohydrates are the simple and complex sugars obtained from the foods we eat. Not all carbohydrates are the same. Simple carbohydrates include sugars such as table sugar or sucrose and fruit sugar or fructose. Complex carbohydrates are sometimes called \"\"good carbs\"\" due to their nutrient value. Complex carbohydrates are composed of several simple sugars linked together and include starches and fiber."

It’s also an opportunity to get support and decisions that you need to finish the project successfully. Let’s think about the sponsor’s perspective of a new project manager with whom he or she is not familiar. Weekly Status Report – Address Sponsor’s Concerns Here’s what the sponsor is concerned about: Does this project manager have control of what’s happening on the project? Does he know about any problems or will he be surprised down the road? Where are we today and what’s the forecast of costs and finish date? Do the team members understand what the PM expects of them? Project Tracking Reports Main Page Those are very reasonable questions and concerns for a project sponsor so you need to write your status report to answer those questions.

"text": "Structuring Private Real Estate Funds Forming a private real estate fund provides a means for the successful real estate developer to access a dedicated pool of capital to fund new investment deals without having to raise capital on a deal-by-deal basis. This article provides an overview of some of the key structural considerations related to the formation, launch, and operation of a private real estate fund. Private real estate funds enable managers to pool capital without having to navigate the cumbersome securities registration process involved in launching an REIT (Real Estate Investment Trust) or other publicly-offered investment fund. Despite the relative ease of implementation, private real estate funds are structurally complex and sophisticated investors will expect to participate on terms that not only align interests between the investor and general partner/ sponsor, but that also reflect current market trends. If you have questions about the process or costs to launch a private real estate fund, or are ready to start a fund, we invite you to contact us to schedule a complimentary consultation. Entity Types Private real estate funds are typically formed using an entity that is either a limited partnership or a limited liability company. Both of these entity types are known as pass-through entities so that they are essentially disregarded for tax purposes and all gains and losses are directly attributed to the limited partners or members of the entity. There has been a long standing tradition among private investment funds of using Delaware limited partnerships or limited liability companies as the entity of choice. However, principals should be aware that the laws of many states may deem holding real estate for income producing purposes to be an activity that requires an entity to be qualified to do business in the state where the real estate is located. In some states, qualifying an out-of-state entity, or a particular type of entity, to do business can be expensive in certain jurisdictions and might not be necessary if some advance planning is utilized."

Being a relatively new site that supports the grassroots effort to popularize the sport of drifting, we decided that we would get with as many 2012 Formula Drift rookies as we could, speak with them, and report back here with what they had to say. We asked 10 simple questions that we felt would enrich the seasons of 2013 FD rookies, and give advice and encouragement to any fan out there who inspires to someday be a competitor in any driving sport comparable to drifting. The questions: How did you earn your FD Pro License? What is the single most expensive cost you’ve had this year? On average, how much does it cost to travel to an event? ( food, lodging, fuel, etc)What is the most helpful thing a sponsor could do for you? What is the most helpful thing you could do for your sponsors?

Canadian refugee protection programs The Canadian refugee system has two main parts:the Refugee and Humanitarian Resettlement Program, for people who need protection from outside Canada andthe In-Canada Asylum Program for people making refugee protection claims from within Canada Refugee and Humanitarian Resettlement Program Refugees who come to Canada have left their homes, and in many cases they have had to live in refugee camps for many years.

The first step in developing a comprehensive clinical trial budget is to perform an internal cost analysis. The cost analysis identifies all of the individual costs associated with a clinical trial, including evaluating standard of care procedures and staffing needs. What is the difference between Budget Development and Budget Negotiation? Budget development is the process of identifying all of the expenses associated with participating in a clinical trial. Budget negotiation is the process of engaging the sponsor in a dialogue that results in a final budget that covers the costs of participating in a clinical trial. Additional information on budget negotiations can be found here . Budget Development The budget development process begins when an investigator is invited to participate in a clinical trial or when he/she decides to initiate a clinical trial and approach a sponsor for funding.

Sponsors of Promotion Games of Chance offering and awarding prizes valued at $600 or more should be aware that they are responsible to obtain a signed, legible copy of an IRS form W-9 from every winner that they issue a prize to. This means that any eligible entrant who has been verified as a prize Winner you issue a prize of $600 or more to, will need to fill out a W-9 form for you to keep on record, regardless of the number of times in the course of a tax year the same person wins a prize. In addition, if one person wins multiple lower valued prizes within the same year, which when added together total $600 or more, they too will be required to complete a form W-9. It is not necessary to send the actual or copy of the W-9 to the IRS; however, the information contained thereon will be used by the Sponsor to complete an informational report for the IRS, such as a 1099-MISC form for each appropriate Winner. And, the Sponsor must send a copy of the 1099-MISC form to the appropriate Winner by mail, postmarked by January 31st of the year following the year in which said prize was won, and to the IRS by February 28th. Please note that there are associated penalties that may be imposed by the IRS if this requirement is not adhered to. As tax laws change frequently, please refer to the IRS website directly for the most recent updates, forms and information. The Official Rules governing the Promotion and the notification documents sent to the potential Winners should clearly state what the requirements of accepting a prize entails, the forms that you are requesting them to fill out, and how their tax information will be used. The potential Winner should be made aware that they will be responsible for any taxes imposed on their prize (including, but not limited to all local, state and federal taxes) and therefore are required to complete and deliver to the Sponsor, a completed W-9 form."

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

Rather, the SD-WAN solution runs an overlay (tunneling) on top of the physical infrastructure, abstracting the actual links away. SD-WAN forwarders (somewhat analogous to routers) monitor the performance of each physical link, and forward individual flows to remote SD-WAN forwarders across the link best able to handle that flow’s SLA requirements. Where did it get the SLA requirements? A network operator defined them in a central controller, which distributed that policy to all of the SD-WAN forwarders. The practical upshot of all this? A company can reduce spending on private WAN links by adding cheaper broadband links to the WAN mix. The Packet Pushers have heard from the following list of companies.

"text": "\"Paint vs. Pinto What is the difference between a Paint Horse and a pinto horse? By Kim Abbott | March 2, 2010Tweet Q: What is the difference between a Paint Horse and a pinto horse? A: The short answer is that Paint is a breed based on bloodlines, and pinto is a coat color pattern that can be found in horses of many different breeds. The longer answer is a bit more complicated. Paints and pintos typically have one thing in common: a flashy coat featuring patches of white and a solid color, such as bay, black or chestnut. Beyond that, there are many differences. For one, a Paint Horse is a breed that, according to the American Paint Horse Association (APHA), \"\"has strict bloodline requirements and a distinctive stock-horse body type.\"\" Paint Horses can only have the bloodlines of Quarter Horses, Paint Horses or Thoroughbreds in their pedigrees. In order to qualify for registration with the APHA, their sire and dam must be registered with the APHA, the American Quarter Horse Association or the Jockey Club (the breed registry for Thoroughbreds). On the other hand, \"\"pinto\"\" is a term that refers to the colorful coat pattern and is not the name of a particular breed of horse."

It also allows you to see potential horses in the comfort of your own home without any pressure from a seller. It allows you to get in touch with people outside your immediate area and if they have a web site you can see something of what their farm is about and the kind of horses they raise. It also gives you access to information that you might not have been able to get if you deal only in person, mail or telephone. The down side is on occasion what ends up coming off of the shipper's truck is not what you envisioned you had purchased. This is where a little research would have helped to avoid such a situation.

"text": "\"A cropout, crop-out or crop out is a horse with body spots, including pinto or leopard complex spotting, or \"\"high white\"\" horse markings, with a sire and dam who both appeared to have been solid-colored. There are several variations in the definition, depending on the breed registry involved. There are multiple genetic reasons that may cause a horse to be a cropout. Sometimes solid-colored horses throw cropouts because some spotting patterns are recessive genes that are not necessarily expressed unless the relevant allele is inherited from both parents. Other times a gene may be a dominant or incomplete dominant but so minimally expressed that the horse looks solid but can pass flashy color on to its offspring The term originally came about because excess white in certain breeds was considered an undesirable trait and such foals were deemed ineligible for registration, making them grade horses of little economic value. However, many people liked the flashy color, others sought to keep cropout horses from becoming worthless, and thus new breed registries formed, such as the American Paint Horse Association. [ 1] In recent years, as DNA testing has become available to verify parentage, breed registries that once excluded cropouts are now accepting them. The term \"\"cropout\"\" is today most closely associated with horses of American Quarter Horse breeding. [ 2] These horse are often registered as American Paint Horses, where the term usually refers to horses with overo coloring and whose parents were solid horses not registered with the APHA. [ 3] It may also refer to sabino -patterned horses. ["

Donkeys' ears are MUCH longer in proportion to their size than a horse's. The necks are characteristically straighter in the longears, and most donkeys and all zebras lack a true wither. The croup and rump are also a different shape in the donkey and its hybrids, lacking the double-curve muscled haunch. The back is straighter due to the lack of withers. Dipped loins or severely swayed backs are a conformation fault, unless in old animals or brood jennies who have produced many foals, and not due to genetic factors. The mane and tail in the donkey are coarse. The mane is stiff and upright, rarely laying over and the tail is more like a cow's, covered with short body hair for most of the length, and ending in a tasseled switch. Donkeys do not have a true forelock, although sometimes the mane grows long enough to comb down between the ears toward the eyes."

Real Horse Colors and Equine Color Genetics By Kerstin Wellman - All photos ©Christiane Slawik History and fiction are full of famous horses distinguished not only by their talent but also by their color---Man O' War was known as Big Red; Native Dancer was called the Grey Ghost; the Black Stallion is beloved by generations of horse lovers; and who doesn't know Trigger the golden palomino? As the saying goes, a good horse is never a bad color, and the equine palette is rich with an abundance of hues. That said, many people are surprised to learn that all horse colors are actually built on one of only two base colors, black or chestnut. Various genes act on these colors and dilute them, resulting in a broad spectrum of colors. Some genes have an affect on both colors, and a few affect only one color or the other. THE BASE COLORS: From the elegant Friesian to the fictional favorite the Black Stallion, black horses have a mystical appeal for many horse lovers. True black is unusual in a number of breeds, such as the Arabian or the Thoroughbred, while other breeds are defined by it, like Friesians and Merens ponies. It is a relatively simple color, but it does vary in shade from blue-black to silvery-black and occasionally even coppery-black. Some black horses remain black all year long, and some fade to a chocolaty brown color when exposed to sunlight. Black Black Chestnut Chestnut is a common color found in most breeds."

Gray or grey is a coat color of horses characterized by progressive silvering of the colored hairs of the coat. Most gray horses have black skin and dark eyes; unlike many depigmentation genes, gray does not affect skin or eye color. [ 1] Their adult hair coat is white, dappled, or white intermingled with hairs of other colors. Gray horses may be born any base color, depending on other color genes present. White hairs begin to appear at or shortly after birth and become progressively lighter as the horse ages. Graying can occur at different rates—very quickly on one horse and very slowly on another. Gray horses appear in many breeds, though the color is most commonly seen in breeds descended from Arabian ancestors. Some breeds that have large numbers of gray-colored horses include the Thoroughbred, the Arabian, the American Quarter Horse, the Percheron, the Andalusian, the Welsh pony, and the most famous of all gray horse breeds, the Lipizzaner."

"text": "\"A REFERENCE GUIDE: Arabian Coat Colorationby Margo Weise A rabian horses of unusual colors have long been discriminatedagainst and thought to be impure. With today’s technology, blood typing has made these foolish rumors a thing of the past. Some of the most flamboyant patterns and shades were not thought impure in the desert but were actually sought after. One of the Abbas Pasha’s most celebrated mares was Faris Saouda, a parti-color (wildly spotted) horse. This ancient gene is not a sign of impurity but exactly the opposite. The true parti-color is not a common spotting pattern as seen today, but instead is the failure of pigmentation cells to spread throughout the body of the horse, a unique mutation occurring mostly in hotbloods. The Abbas Pasha set great store by this color and collected 11 mares with these attributes. Faris Saouda can be found in most of the bloodlines available in the U. S. today. The true parti-color is hardly ever seen today and is strictly hotblood in origin. Desert Name- Ablak This color is not related to the tobiano or the overo gene groups."

It is a strong enough horse to carry children and small adults, and can be used in light draft. Actually, the Miniature was initially brought to the United States for use in the Appalachian coal mines. PHYSICAL DESCRIPTIONObviously, the most outstanding feature of the Miniature is its size. It stands up to 34 inches. Other than height, standards require the horse to be of good conformation, looking much like a horse of larger proportions. It is known for its intelligence and alertness. It appears in any color. ORIGINSmall horses were brought to the U. S. to work in coal mines early in this century."

Here the Greek letter π represents a constant, approximately equal to 3.14159, which is equal to the ratio of the circumference of any circle to its diameter. One method of deriving this formula, which originated with Archimedes, involves viewing the circle as the limit of a sequence of regular polygons. The area of a regular polygon is half its perimeter multiplied by the distance from its center to its sides, and the corresponding formula (that the area is half the perimeter times the radius, i.e. 1⁄ 2× 2 π r × r) holds in the limit for a circle. Although often referred to as the area of a circle in informal contexts, strictly speaking the term disk refers to the interior of the circle, while circle is reserved for the boundary only, which is a curve and covers no area itself. Therefore, the area of a disk is the more precise phrase for the area enclosed by a circle.

[ 1] Archimedes used the tools of Euclidean geometry to show that the area inside a circle is equal to that of a right triangle whose base has the length of the circle's circumference and whose height equals the circle's radius in his book Measurement of a Circle."

( By the way, the number of interior angles - angles inside the shape - must always equal the number of sides). The common names of most polygons have the Greek prefix for the number of angles attached to the Greek word for angle (gon). So, the common names for five and six-sided regular polygons are:penta (Greek meaning five) + gon = pentagonhexa (Greek meaning six) + gon = hexagon The Exceptions There are, of course, exceptions to this naming scheme. Most notably: Triangle- uses the Greek prefix Tri, but instead of the Greek gon, the Latin angle is used. ( Rarely are they called trigons)."

Whether it's a sphere or a circle, a rectangle or a cube, a pyramid or a triangle, each shape has specific formulas that you must follow to get the correct measurements. We're going to examine the formulas you will need to figure out the surface area and volume of three-dimensional shapes as well as the area and perimeter of two-dimensional shapes. You can study this lesson to learn each formula, then keep it around for a quick reference next time you need it. The good news is that each formula uses many of the same basic measurements, so learning each new one gets a little easier.01of 16Surface Area and Volume of a Sphere D. Russell A three-dimensional circle is known as a sphere. In order to calculate either the surface area or the volume of a sphere, you need to know the radius ( r ). The radius is the distance from the center of the sphere to the edge and it is always the same, no matter which points on the sphere's edge you measure from. Once you have the radius, the formulas are rather simple to remember. Just as with the circumference of the circle, you will need to use pi ( π ). Generally, you can round this infinite number to 3.14 or 3.14159 (the accepted fraction is 22/7)."

Only three shapes are considered here because the problem is difficult for more irregular shapes. For example, of all triangles, the one with fixed perimeter and largest area is the equilateral triangle whose side lengths are all but this is difficult to show because it is not easy to find the area of triangle in terms of the three side lengths (though Heron's formula accomplishes this)."

A.2Student View Task A tessellation of the plane is an arrangement of polygons which cover the plane without gaps or overlapping. For example, part of a tessellation with rectangles is pictured below: A tessellation is called regular if all polygons in the tessellation are congruent regular polygons and if any two polygons in the tessellation either do not meet, share a vertex only, or share one edge. The checkerboard pattern below is an example of a regular tessellation which can be continued indefinitely in all directions: In this problem you will discover some very strong restrictions on possible tesselations of the plane, stemming from the fact that that each interior angle of an n sided regular polygon measures \\frac {180 (n-2)} {n} degrees. Suppose P_n is a regular n sided polygon and there is a tessellation of the plane by polygons congruent to P_n. Suppose that m of these polygons meet at each vertex in the tessellation.

In geometry, a diagonal is a line segment joining two vertices of a polygon or polyhedron, when those vertices are not on the same edge. Informally, any sloping line is called diagonal. The word \"\"diagonal\"\" derives from the ancient Greek διαγώνιος diagonios, [1] \"\"from angle to angle\"\" (from διά- dia-, \"\"through\"\", \"\"across\"\" and γωνία gonia, \"\"angle\"\", related to gony \"\"knee\"\"); it was used by both Strabo [2] and Euclid [3] to refer to a line connecting two vertices of a rhombus or cuboid, [4] and later adopted into Latin as diagonus (\"\"slanting line\"\"). In matrix algebra, a diagonal of a square matrix is a set of entries extending from one corner to the farthest corner. There are also other, non-mathematical uses.

"text": "\"Allergies Animal & Insect Allergies Allergies to Non-Traditional Pets New Allergies But Same Allergens By Daniel More, MD, a board-certified physician Updated August 24, 2017Share Pin Email Print Blend Images - Jose Luis Pelaez Inc / Getty Images Allergies to non-traditional pets have grown in the past decades due to the increasing popularity of exotic and traditionally undomesticated pets. From ferrets and snakes to rabbits and pigs, the rise in pet-related allergies is as much associated with the way we live as the animals we live with. Certainly, with more people living in smaller apartments today, the likelihood of an allergy is increased simply due to the confined space the animal and owner share. While it may seem fair to assume that some pets are more \"\"allergy-causing\"\" than others (or that animals with less fur are less likely to cause allergy), this is not necessarily the case. What we do know is that the main symptom of pet allergies — rhinitis (sniffing, sneezing) and asthma — are the same for uncommon pets as they are for cats and dogs. Moreover, the allergens (the substances that cause allergy) vary little from one animal to the next. How a Pet Allergy Starts Especially in urban environments, the daily exposure to domestic animals can increase a person's sensitivity to pet-related allergens. Most of these are airborne particles that we inhale. When this happens, the body will mount an immune response which may or may not produce any outward symptom. In some cases, however, repeated exposure can lead to a more aggressive response, releasing histamine and other substances into the body that produce allergic symptoms, sometimes severe."

The lack of adhesive capability may further prevent Lactobacilli from colonizing in the intestinal tract.· Adult rabbits naturally do not have the right bacteria to digest milk derivates in the cecum and intestine.· In the absence of those Lactobacteria , milk derivates accelerate the onset of stasis in adult rabbits. Studies have furthermore shown that rabbits that were given cow’s milk on a daily basis during several months evidenced the development of rheumatoid like lesions. These rabbits showed increased numbers of nucleated cells and raised percentages of T lymphocytes in their synovial fluids, compared to control rabbits, and their elevation corresponded with the severity of the histological lesions.

Despite their common name, these animals are not in the pig family Suidae, nor do they come from Guinea in Africa; they originated in the Andes of South America and studies based on biochemistry and hybridization suggest they are domestic, not wild, descendants of a closely related species of cavy such as C. tschudii. [ 1] [2]The domestic guinea pig plays an important role in folk culture for many indigenous Andean groups, especially as a food source, but also in folk medicine and in community religious ceremonies. [ 3] Guinea pigs are a culinary staple in the Andes Mountains, where they are known as cuy, a name also given to large animals, the result of a breeding program, that ended up in southern California. [ 4] Since the 1960s, efforts have been made to increase consumption of the animal outside South America. [ 5]In Western societies, the domestic guinea pig has enjoyed widespread popularity as a household pet, a type of pocket pet, ever since its introduction by European traders in the 16th century. Their docile nature; friendly, even affectionate responsiveness to handling and feeding; and the relative ease of caring for them continue to make guinea pigs a popular choice of pet."

If you have an aggressive rabbit, like Lulu, read on to find out why your rabbit attacks and how to stop it. Why is my rabbit aggressive? Rabbits have a reputation for being cute and cuddly so facing a rabbit that bites, scratches, and kicks can be a bit of a shock. Rabbits can be aggressive towards people for several reasons, and there maybe more than one factor at work. To get to the root of the problem, first you need to rule out heath issues and hormones, which can make a happy rabbit into a grumpy aggressive one. Step 1: Rule out Pain/Health Problems Rabbits are good at hiding when they are unwell or in pain, because showing symptoms of illness would make them a target to predators in the wild. A sudden change in behaviour, such as unexpected aggression can be your rabbit's way of saying 'I'm feeling a bit off, please leave me alone'. Problems such as a sore mouth from overgrown teeth or a bladder infection can sometimes cause pain without showing any other symptoms. For this reason, the first step with an aggressive rabbit is to visit a vet for a health check to ensure that there is no underlying health reason for the aggression."

"text": "Animal Allergy Overview Print Overview of Animal Allergies Many people are allergic to animals. In people with an inherited hypersensitivity (called atopy ), exposure to proteins ( allergens) in an animal's saliva, dander (flakes of skin), or urine can cause an allergic reaction. Most allergies to dogs, cats, and horses are caused by hypersensitivity to proteins found in the animal's saliva and dander. Most allergies to rabbits, hamsters, and guinea pigs are caused by hypersensitivity to proteins in the animal's urine. An allergic reaction is an immune system response. Allergy symptoms develop when these proteins are carried through the air and come in contact with the lining of the respiratory tract. A person with a severe animal allergy can experience a reaction in a public place from exposure to dander that is carried on a pet owner's clothing. Incidence and Prevalence of Animal Allergies According to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, 15–30 percent of people with allergies have an allergy to dogs, cats, or other animals. Cats are the most common cause for pet allergies and approximately 10 million people in the United States are allergic to cats. According to the American Academy of Allergy Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI), approximately 3 million children in the United States have asthma that is triggered by allergens (e.g., animal saliva, dander, dust mites, pollen)."

Signs of pet allergy include those common to hay fever, such as sneezing and runny nose. Some people may also experience signs of asthma, such as wheezing and difficulty breathing. Most often, pet allergy is triggered by exposure to the dead flakes of skin (dander) a pet sheds. Any animal with fur can be a source of pet allergy, but pet allergies are most commonly associated with cats and dogs. If you have a pet allergy, the best strategy is to avoid or reduce exposure to the animal as much as possible. Medications or other treatments may be necessary to relieve symptoms and manage asthma. Symptoms Pet allergy signs and symptoms caused by inflammation of nasal passages include: Sneezing Runny nose Itchy, red or watery eyes Nasal congestion Itchy nose, roof of mouth or throat Postnasal drip Cough Facial pressure and pain Frequent awakening Swollen, blue-colored skin under your eyes In a child, frequent upward rubbing of the nose If your pet allergy contributes to asthma, you may also experience: Difficulty breathing Chest tightness or pain Audible whistling or wheezing sound when exhaling Trouble sleeping caused by shortness of breath, coughing or wheezing Skin symptoms Some people with pet allergy may also experience skin symptoms, a pattern known as allergic dermatitis. This type of dermatitis is an immune system reaction that causes skin inflammation. Direct contact with an allergy-causing pet may trigger allergic dermatitis, causing signs and symptoms, such as: Raised, red patches of skin (hives)Eczema Itchy skin When to see a doctor Some signs and symptoms of pet allergy, such as a runny nose or sneezing, are similar to those of the common cold."

By Daniel More, MD, a board-certified physician Updated December 15, 2017Share Pin Email Print Peter Dazeley/Getty Images In March 2013, a teenage college student with a severe nut allergy accidentally ate a cookie containing nuts. He then developed severe anaphylaxis, but his family did not use his Epi-Pen because the expiration date had already passed, and a 911 operator told them over the phone not to use it. While the teen finally did receive an Epi-Pen injection from a neighbor’s device, it was too late: the student died later that evening at a local hospital. ( It is important to realize that it is not clear if using the expired Epi Pen would have changed the outcome of this tragic event. ) Food Allergies: A Growing Problem The prevalence of food allergies, particularly to peanuts and tree nuts, is on the rise, with rates doubling to tripling in many countries over the past 10 to 15 years. Food allergies, particularly to nuts and seafood, can be severe and life-threatening, with more cases of fatal food allergy reactions being reported every year. For the most part, there is no cure for food allergies, although a small number of research centers are performing studies on immunotherapy for certain food allergies, such as peanuts, milk, and eggs. The standard treatment for food allergies is avoidance of the culprit food, as well as treatment of allergic reactions that may occur from accidental ingestion of the food. Epinephrine as the Treatment of Choice for Food Allergies The treatment of choice for anaphylaxis from all causes, including as a result of food allergy, is injectable epinephrine."

Food allergies are a rising concern with dog owners and it seems like more and more dogs are suffering from them. But what exactly is a food allergy? Food allergies are different from food intolerance. Food intolerance is the result of poor digestion, such as lactose intolerance. People and dogs with lactose intolerance are either missing or have low levels of the milk digesting enzyme lactase. Food allergies are the over-response of your dog’s immune system to an invading protein. In the case of a food allergy, this protein is contained in your dog’s food."

But rabbits can also also create health issues for humans, so parents need to be cautious and aware. Allergies Rabbits can produce an allergen on their skin or in their urine that causes an allergic reaction in kids. Symptoms are similar to cat allergies -- sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes, congestion and itchy skin that can develop a rash. Kids can come into contact with allergens by touching the rabbit, but it's also an airborne problem. If you keep the rabbit, there are ways to minimize the uncomfortable side effects. Have your child wash his hands after touching the rabbit; do not let him touch his face while he's handling his pet; contain the rabbit to certain rooms to prevent a wider spread of allergens; invest in air filters that pull allergens out of the air; and ask your pediatrician about allergy medication for your child. Bites and Scratches Rabbits can scratch when kicking out with their back legs or bite if they feel threatened. In extreme cases, rabbits carrying rabies can transmit the disease through their saliva."

This oil does have a significant list of benefits including the fact that it is readily available at many natural food stores, affordable, shelf stable, 100% natural and nontoxic, and not environmentally problematic. Books such as The Coconut Oil Miracle tout its extensive health benefits as an immune system support, weight loss aid, digestion and nutrition absorption aid and many other traits. A simple Amazon search pulls up over 10 guides to the benefits of coconut oil including one specifically dedicated to pets and another for oil pulling. I've personally found it to be fantastic for cooking and the flavor of virgin coconut oil makes a delectable popcorn topping for a Saturday evening movie at home. Combine it with a bit of truffle oil, salt, and onion powder and you've got a mouth party like you've never known before. With all those delightful qualities you might be surprised to hear me say that in skincare coconut oil gives extremely mixed results. Coconut oil is used in a starring role for everything from a makeup remover to a general moisturizer, and is frequently one of the first natural oils people experiment with for home recipes and DIY beauty. Unfortunately for very dry skin and acne prone skin the results of coconut oil often skew towards breakouts and increased dryness. A quick search of blogs on coconut oil used for beauty purposes for anecdotal evidence shows a lot of confused results in the comments sections."

Allergens can be inhaled, eaten, or injected (from stings or medicine) or they can come into contact with the skin. Some of the more common allergens are: Pollens from trees, grasses, and weeds Molds, both indoor and outdoor Dust mites that live in bedding, carpeting, and other items that hold moisture Animal dander from furred animals such as cats, dogs, horses, and rabbits Some foods and medicines Venom from insect stings Allergies tend to run in families. If a parent has an allergy, there is a higher chance that his or her child also will have allergies. This risk increases if both parents are allergic. How Can I Help My Child? Identifying and avoiding the things your child is allergic to is best. If your child has an allergic condition, try the following: Keep windows closed during the pollen season, especially on dry, windy days when pollen counts are highest. Keep the house clean and dry to reduce mold and dust mites."

Alligators tend to be smaller than their Crocodile cousins but have been known to move at speeds of up to 15mph on land making them one of the fastest large reptiles in the world. Despite their size, there are a number of distinct differences between Alligators and Crocodiles as an Alligator's snout is shorter than that of a Crocodile, and with their mouths shut, an Alligator's teeth cannot be seen but a Crocodile's can. Alligators are also commonly known as Gators in their native, southern North American habitats. Alligator Anatomy and Appearance Alligators are very large reptiles, with males growing up to 4.5 meters in length. The female Alligator tends to be slightly smaller, with a total body and tail length of between 3 and 3.5 meters. The Chinese Alligator is a much smaller species, almost half the size of a female American Alligator. Alligators have an armour-plated body that varies in colour from yellow, to green, to brown, finally turning almost completely black in old age. The tail of the Alligator is incredibly muscular and is used to propel the animal when it is in the water. Alligators have short, stocky legs with webbing between their toes."

The true alligators are today represented by two species, A. mississippiensis in the southeastern United States, which can grow to 15 ft (4.6 m) and weigh 1000 lbs (453 kg) [2] and the small A. sinensis in the Yangtze River, China, which grows to an average of 5 ft (1.5 m). Their name derives from the Spanish el lagarto, which means \"\"the lizard\"\". Caimans [ edit]In Central and South America, the alligator family is represented by six species of the subfamily Caimaninae, which differ from the alligator by the absence of a bony septum between the nostrils, and having ventral armour composed of overlapping bony scutes, each of which is formed of two parts united by a suture. Besides the three species in Caiman, the smooth-fronted caimans in genus Paleosuchus and the black caiman in Melanosuchus are described. Caimans tend to be more agile and crocodile-like in their movements, and have longer, sharper teeth than alligators. [ 3]C. crocodilus, the spectacled caiman, has the widest distribution, from southern Mexico to the northern half of Argentina, and grows to a modest size of about 2.2 m (7.2 ft). The largest is the near-threatened Melanosuchus niger, the jacare-assu or large or black caiman of the Amazon River basin. Black caimans grow to 5.0 m (16.5 ft), with the largest recorded size 5.79 m (19.0 ft)."

They first appeared 83.5 million years ago in the Late Cretaceous period ( Campanian stage) and are the closest living relatives of birds, as the two groups are the only known survivors of the Archosauria. Members of the order's total group, the clade Pseudosuchia, appeared about 250 million years ago in the Early Triassic period, and diversified during the Mesozoic era. The order Crocodilia includes the true crocodiles (family Crocodylidae ), the alligators and caimans (family Alligatoridae ), and the gharial and false gharial (family Gavialidae ). Although the term 'crocodiles' is sometimes used to refer to all of these, crocodilians is a less ambiguous vernacular term for members of this group. Large, solidly built, lizard-like reptiles, crocodilians have long flattened snouts, laterally compressed tails, and eyes, ears, and nostrils at the top of the head. They swim well and can move on land in a \"\"high walk\"\" and a \"\"low walk\"\", while smaller species are even capable of galloping. Their skin is thick and covered in non-overlapping scales. They have conical, peg-like teeth and a powerful bite. They have a four-chambered heart and, somewhat like birds, a unidirectional looping system of airflow within the lungs, but like other non-avian reptiles they are ectotherms."

"text": "\"Text Size: A A AAmerican Alligator The largest freshwater reptile on Hilton Head Island is the American alligator ( Alligator mississippiensis ). The group of reptiles to which alligators belong has been around since the time of the dinosaurs, relatively unchanged except for size --- they've actually gotten smaller! Alligators are considered \"\"keystone species\"\", a species that helps to fashion its environment and influence the types of species that live there. This is especially true on barrier islands like Hilton Head Island, where alligators perform necessary services like providing fresh water for other wildlife to drink during droughts by digging \"\"gator holes\"\" that bring groundwater to the surface, while providing alligators with a cool, wet place to rest. They are also large predators that help to control the numbers of many of the species they eat, which in turn can influence all of the species that each of their prey feeds on. If a keystone species becomes extinct, the entire ecosystem changes, and many species that have come to depend upon the keystone species may also face extinction. Like most reptiles, alligators are cold-blooded, which means their body temperature is not constant like ours, but changes with the temperature of the environment. During our coldest months, alligators hibernate in freshwater ponds and lagoons, often digging down into the mud. During the warmer months, alligators alternate between basking out of the water to warm up, and remaining in the water to cool down to maintain the best body temperature for activity. After a courtship in which males claim a territory and court a female, the female lays between 20-60 eggs near a body of fresh water and covers them with vegetation."

"text": "\"powered by American Alligator ( Alligator mississippiensis)Description: American alligators ( Alligator mississippiensis) inhabit the southeastern United States. Once a federally listed endangered species, American alligators have recovered and are common in many areas of the Southeast. The species is still federally listed as threatened because it looks like the American crocodile, which is endangered. Alligators are long-lived animals whose life spans can exceed 60 years. Alligators are “cold-blooded,” meaning that they are ectothermic animals that cannot regulate their own body temperature, but assume the temperatures of their surrounding environment. To warm themselves, alligators bask in the sun, which is when they are frequently observed on the banks of water bodies. On hot summer days they can sometimes be seen basking with their mouths open. This is a cooling mechanism essentially equivalent to a dog panting. Ecologically, alligators are important predators and create important habitat for other wildlife by digging holes that hold water during droughts. Range and habitat: Alligators occur on the Atlantic Coast of North America from Florida through coastal North Carolina, and along the Gulf Coast into Texas."

Answer by Jake Gunst Confidence votes 146Alligators can NOT run at 35 miles per hour, as the previous answerer said. 35 miles an hour is how fast a horse runs, or an Olympic speed skater-- it's faster than a deer. People tend to make outrageous claims about crocodilians with no basis. Just today I was on an everglades tour and the guide said they could go 35mph on land. A fast alligator might go 8 or 9 miles per hour on land. According to a study in Australia, young crocodiles might be able to reach about 10.5 miles/hour over a few yards, but this species has the ability to run at a different gait, called a gallup, which alligators cannot (they can only belly run). It is also important to note that Alligators never chase prey, they are ambush predators. They only 'run' back into the water, and, as in the above study, are running away from something, not towards it."

The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), which is famous for its Red List that characterizes the conservation status of various species, suggests that crocodilians strike out at human beings for four reasons: (1) they’re hungry, (2) they’re defending their territory, (3) they’re defending their young, or (4) they intended to attack another species—such as a dog, a cat, or another domesticated animal—that just happened to be near a person at the time. The list below catalogues some of the most-aggressive crocodilian species. Black Caiman ( Melanosuchus niger)Jason Buberel The black caiman resides in northern South America and can be found over much of the Amazon River basin from Peru and Ecuador eastward to Guyana and Suriname. Black caimans have a broad diet, feeding on fish and other reptiles as well as rodents such as the capybara (which can grow as large as 4 feet [1.25 meters] long). Adult male black caimans often grow longer than 13 feet (about 4 meters); larger specimens have been known to attack people. The Worldwide Crocodilian Attack Database (Croc BITE), which is associated with Australia’s Charles Darwin University, notes that between January 2008 and October 2013, black caimans were involved in 43 attacks on people, and fewer than one-fifth of those were fatal.

"text": "\"Elephants Animals vs. Humans Animal Behavior Running (activity) Animals Can an elephant outrun a human?14 Answers Quora User, Engineer Updated Dec 22, 2017 · Author has 1.9k answers and 1.8m answer views If an elephant is chasing you, you have a big problem. It is faster than you, and generally you can't get away by climbing a tree or hiding. How does one avoid the problem in the first instance? Elephants communicate very clearly with body language before attacking. One will see them \"\"pushing air at you\"\" with their ears and with their chest or trunk or headshaking or bashing bushes around. They are doing this because they perceive you as a threat or a nuisance and it is best to move away before it becomes a serious problem because they have already told you that they want a physical fight. ( They don't do this behaviour to a stronger elephant unless they want a hiding). Elephants are surprisingly logical. For example, when they crush cars in game parks they are perfectly aware that it is the humans inside the car that they don't like. If you run from the car the elephant will chase you instead of destroying the car further."

"text": "Home > Animals & Nature > Articles > Which moves faster, the alligator or the crocodile Which moves faster, the alligator or the crocodile01:00 Sun 29th Jul 2001 | Animals & Naturesaltwater crocodile A. It depends on whether you talking about swimming or running. The group Crocodilians, which alligators and crocodiles are members of, has a unique method of locomotion for reptiles, they can even 'gallop' on land, planting their front feet, while bringing their hind legs around the outside and then lunging forward with their front legs. However, tales of out running racehorses are something of an exaggeration. Crocodiles and alligators usually only gallop when threatened, as a means of making it to water where they're much more agile. Speeds of up to 15 kmph are possible, but it's a very energetic way of moving around for a reptile and cannot be sustained for any distance. As for the comparative galloping speeds of alligators and crocodiles, differences between different sized species are much more recognisable, with the smaller species able to achieve faster short bursts than the larger ones, be they alligator or crocodile. When it comes to their speed in water, where they're much more at home and agile, it appears that, rather sensibly, no-one has yet taken to the water with either of them to monitor it, let alone any difference between the two groups. Q. How do crocodiles and alligators differ in appearance A. An alligator is almost black with a blunt, rounded snout. A crocodile is olive green and has a narrow, tapered snout that reveals plenty of big teeth. Do you have a question about a reptile Click here to ask.by Lisa Cardy"

Populations occur from the Atlantic and Pacific coasts of southern Mexico to South America as far as Peru and Venezuela. It also lives on many of the Caribbean islands such as Cuba, Jamaica, Hispaniola and Grand Cayman. Within the United States, the American crocodile's distribution is limited to the southern tip of Florida, though at least two have been found as far north as the Tampa Bay area.

The gharial, with its narrow snout, is easier to distinguish, while morphological differences are more difficult to spot in crocodiles and alligators. The most obvious external differences are visible in the head, with crocodiles having narrower and longer heads, with a more V-shaped than a U-shaped snout compared to alligators and caimans. Another obvious trait is that the upper and lower jaws of the crocodiles are the same width, and the teeth in the lower jaw fall along the edge or outside the upper jaw when the mouth is closed; therefore, all teeth are visible, unlike an alligator, which possesses in the upper jaw small depressions into which the lower teeth fit."

The evolution of hunting weapons shows an ever-increasing ability to extend the hunter's reach, while maintaining the ability to produce disabling or lethal wounds, allowing the hunter to capture the game. The spear was in use for hunting as early as five million years ago in hominid and chimpanzee societies, and its usage may go back even further. [ 1] The spear gave the hunter the ability to kill large animals, at ranges as far as the hunter could throw the spear; the Roman pilum, for example, had a range of 30 metres (98 feet). Spear throwing devices such as the bâton de commandement, woomera, and atlatl extended that range even further by giving the hunter leverage to throw the spear faster and farther. The atlatl allowed a skilled user to throw a dart up to 100 metres (110 yards). Archaeological evidence of the atlatl has been found on all continents except for Antarctica. The atlatl was displaced starting in the late Paleolithic with the easier to make and use bow and arrow, which remains in common use today in both sporting and hunting. With the advent of accurate, reliable firearms, firearms became the weapon of choice."

Its reversal effect works by competing with the sedative for α 2-adrenergic receptors and displacing them. It is mainly used in veterinary medicine, and while it is only licensed for dogs and for intramuscular use, it has been used intravenously, as well as in cats and other animals. There is a low rate of side effects, largely due to atipamezole's high specificity for the α 2 -adrenergic receptor. Atipamezole has a very quick onset, usually waking an animal up within 5 to 10 minutes. It was originally released in 1996 and is sold in the U. S. by Zoetis.

Today, Louisiana and Florida have the most alligators, over one million wild alligators in each state with over a quarter million more on alligator farms. Reptiles are cold blooded animals, which means that their body temperature is regulated by the temperature of the environment around them. This is why alligators are seen basking in the sun, trying to regulate their body temperature. Because alligators are cold blooded their body rates are slowed down during the winter months to the point where they can no longer catch food efficiently. For this reason alligators enter underground holes and remain dormant through the winter months. Size and Growth Rates Food Habits Nesting Harvests Range and Habitat Alligators range from central Texas eastward to North Carolina (Figure 1). Louisiana has the highest alligator population, approaching 2 million."

"text": "Science & Mathematics Zoology How do alligators sleep? Do they sleep underwater or on land? When and how do alligators sleep? Can alligators breath underwater?1 following 6 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Both alligators and crocodiles like to sleep sunning themselves in the afternoon heat. Since alligators are cold blooded they need the heat of the sun to power their body; they aren't solar powered, but they are warmed and their metabolism accelerated due to the heat of the sun. This is also why they live in tropical and subtropical climates. Neither species has gills; they are air breathers and like to float with their nose just above the water line. When doing this they look like a floating log and are hard to spot. They are in the perfect condition to monitor their area and are ready to spring into action if needed; to protect themselves, their mate and their territory or to ambush their prey. Both species are great divers who can spend almost an hour underwater."

It has a large, dark (usually black), slightly rounded body and thick limbs. Unlike the crocodile, the alligator has a broad head. The alligator uses its powerful tail to propel itself through water. The tail accounts for half the alligator's length. While alligators move very quickly in water, they are generally slow-moving on land. They can, however, move quickly for short distances. Diet American alligators mainly eat fish, turtles, various mammals, birds and other reptiles. Population Did You Know? Although alligators have no vocal cords, males bellow loudly to attract mates and warn off other males by sucking air into their lungs and blowing it out in intermittent, deep-toned roars."

"text": "How Do Alligator Families Live? Who What Where How A male alligator is known as a bull, a female alligator is called a cow, and baby alligators are referred to as hatchlings. Large male alligators prefer to live alone and are very defensive over their territories. Smaller alligators are more tolerant of the presence of other alligators and are more likely to live in closer proximity to other gators. A congregation is a group of alligators, in which smaller alligators are submissive to the largest, most dominant alligator. What Is Their Life Cycle? Alligators are polygamous animals, meaning they have several mates throughout their lifetime. Alligators begin searching for a mate in April and then breed in May. Males make low, bellowing sounds to attract a female. After mating, the mother builds a nest and lays between 20 and 50 eggs that take about 65 days to hatch. The nest is usually about three feet high and seven feet wide, and it is made using nearby vegetation and mud."

Because it does, says a Florida alligator expert. Frank Mazzotti, a wildlife ecology and conservation professor and alligator expert at the University of Florida's Fort Lauderdale Research and Education Center, offered up this suggestion and other tips for emerging in one piece after an admittedly unlikely encounter with an alligator. We asked Mazzotti for the advice after some unsettling news out of the Sunshine State: Two Florida residents have lost limbs to alligators in the past few weeks. One is a teenager who was recovering in a hospital Tuesday after his lower right arm was bitten off a day earlier. Alligator attacks are still extremely rare. In fact, the likelihood of a Florida resident being injured in an unprovoked alligator attack is roughly one in 2.4 million, according to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. Note the emphasis we put on the word \"\"unprovoked.\"\" In the first incident, a Florida tour boat captain is suspected of illegally feeding an alligator that then bit off his hand. In the second incident, the teenager decided to cool off on a hot summer day by diving into a river that authorities said was teeming with gators."

Alligators tend to be smaller than their Crocodile cousins but have been known to move at speeds of up to 15mph on land making them one of the fastest large reptiles in the world. Despite their size, there are a number of distinct differences between Alligators and Crocodiles as an Alligator's snout is shorter than that of a Crocodile, and with their mouths shut, an Alligator's teeth cannot be seen but a Crocodile's can. Alligators are also commonly known as Gators in their native, southern North American habitats. Alligator Anatomy and Appearance Alligators are very large reptiles, with males growing up to 4.5 meters in length. The female Alligator tends to be slightly smaller, with a total body and tail length of between 3 and 3.5 meters. The Chinese Alligator is a much smaller species, almost half the size of a female American Alligator. Alligators have an armour-plated body that varies in colour from yellow, to green, to brown, finally turning almost completely black in old age. The tail of the Alligator is incredibly muscular and is used to propel the animal when it is in the water. Alligators have short, stocky legs with webbing between their toes."

If you have ever been nipped by a domestic dog, cat or your pet hamster, this is nothing compared to the bit of a wild animal. Animal bites are actually measured in “pounds per square inch” (psi) which is the force that their jaw closes down when biting. The weight of the animal delivering the bite is a lso taken into consideration. These two factors will give you the bite force of an animal.

With respect to defect free welding of nickel and its alloys this cannot be over-emphasised. As well as sulphur, however, there are several other substances that can lead to embrittlement of the nickel alloys when they are exposed to high temperatures. Amongst these are lead, phosphorus, boron and bismuth. These may be present in oils, grease, cutting fluids, paints, marker pen inks, temperature indicating crayons, etc; it may not be possible to avoid using these during fabrication so it is essential that these are removed if the component is to be welded, heat treated or is to enter high temperature service. Fuel gases frequently contain sulphur and it may be necessary to use radiant gas heaters or electrical elements for local heating or in heat treatment furnaces. Nickel alloys can be welded using all the conventional arc welding and power beam processes, the commonest processes being TIG or MIG with pure argon, argon/hydrogen or argon/helium mixtures as shield gases and MMA where basic flux coatings provide the best properties. However, if argon/helium mixes are used it is only when there is more than 40% helium that any significant benefits with respect to penetration and improved fusion will be noticed. Submerged arc welding is restricted to welding solid solution alloys using basic fluxes. Matching welding consumables are available for most of the nickel alloys."

The article to be plated is thoroughly cleansed of grease and dirt by dipping it in acid and alkaline cleaning solutions. It is then put in a solution of the metal with which it is to be coated. The metal exists in the form of positive ions (atoms that have lost one or more electrons). The article is connected to the cathode (negative end of a source of electricity). The anode (positive electric terminal) is connected to another conductor, which is also dipped into the solution. The electric current acts on the metallic ions in the solution. The ions are attracted to the cathode, and the coating is deposited on the article's metal surface. If the metal in the solution and the metal of the positive terminal are the same, the electricity may remove metal from the terminal to replace metal taken from the solution."

"text": "Heat Treating's Strength, Costs Many metal castings meet the specified property requirements in their as-cast form, but there are times when even the cleverest use of the casting process and alloy will leave a part shy of the requirements. In these instances, thermal treatment can change the mechanical properties to meet those critical needs. Heat treatment consists of heating and cooling that enhances a material’s strength, consistency or ductility. The type of heat treatment required by a casting depends on the alloy and the final properties required. Choosing the treatment that will be most economical calls for an understanding of the various processes and knowledge of how the heat treater will calculate the price. Aluminum Treats Ferrous and nonferrous castings receive different types of heat treatment. Aluminum castings are heat treated using different combinations of operations, called tempers (Table 1). Heat treatment of aluminum castings can result in homogenization, stress relief, and improved stability, machinability and mechanical properties. The thermal processing involves three basic processes—solution, quenching and aging. During solution, elements that will later cause age hardening are dissolved, undissolved constituents become spheroids, and the microstructure of the casting is homogenized."

"text": "\"An Industry Perspective Excerpts From1 Heat Treating of Lead and Lead Alloys By \"\" Key To Nonferrous Metals \"\"Attempts to strengthen lead by reducing the grain size or by cold working (strain hardening) have proven unsuccessful. Lead-tin alloys, for example, may re-crystallize immediately and completely at room temperature. Lead-silver alloys respond in the same manner within two weeks. Transformations that are induced in steel by heat treatment do not occur in lead alloys, and strengthening by ordering phenomena, such as in the formation of lattice superstructures, has no practical significance in typical lead alloys. In one study of possible binary lead alloys it was found that the following elements, in the order listed, provided successively greater amounts of solid-solution hardening: thallium, bismuth, tin, cadmium, antimony, lithium, arsenic, calcium, zinc, copper, and barium. Unfortunately, these elements have successively decreasing solid-solution solubility's, and therefore the most potent solutes have the most limited solid-solution hardening effects. Within the midrange of this series, however, are elements that, when alloyed with lead, produce useful strengthening. In most lead alloys, heat treating and rapid cooling (quenching) result in a breakdown of the supersaturated solution during storage (aging). Although this breakdown produces coarse structures in certain alloys (lead-tin alloys, for example), it produces fine structures in others (such as lead-antimony alloys). In alloys of the lead-tin system, the initial hardening produced by alloying is quickly followed by softening as the coarse structure is formed."

Anodizing, or anodising in British English, is an electrolytic passivation process used to increase the thickness of the natural oxide layer on the surface of metal parts. The process is called \"\"anodizing\"\" because the part to be treated forms the anode electrode of an electrical circuit. Anodizing increases corrosion resistance and wear resistance, and provides better adhesion for paint primers and glues than does bare metal. Anodic films can also be used for a number of cosmetic effects, either with thick porous coatings that can absorb dyes or with thin transparent coatings that add interference effects to reflected light. Anodizing is also used to prevent galling of threaded components and to make dielectric films for electrolytic capacitors. Anodic films are most commonly applied to protect aluminium alloys, although processes also exist for titanium, zinc, magnesium, niobium, zirconium, hafnium, and tantalum. Iron or carbon steel metal exfoliates when oxidized under neutral or alkaline microelectrolytic conditions; i.e., the iron oxide (actually \"\" ferric hydroxide \"\" or hydrated iron oxide, also known as rust) forms by anoxic anodic pits and large cathodic surface, these pits concentrate anions such as sulfate and chloride accelerating the underlying metal to corrosion. Carbon flakes or nodules in iron or steel with high carbon content ( high carbon steel, cast iron) may cause an electrolytic potential and interfere with coating or plating. Ferrous metals are commonly anodized electrolytically in nitric acid, or by treatment with red fuming nitric acid, to form hard black ferric oxide."

"text": "Firescale or firestain is a reddish purple toned bloom or stain that appears on silver/copper alloys such as sterling silver when they are heated in the presence of oxygen. It even occurs in gold alloys with high copper contents. As it generally appears in the form of blotchy patches following abrasive polishing, it is seen as a blemish which destroys the clear reflectivity of finished silver surfaces. It is usually observed best when the silver object is placed on a piece of white paper. Sometimes it is chosen as a surface finish in order to emphasize texture as when a silversmith like Lois Betteridge uses firescale to accentuate the visual depth of the hammer marks on a surface by polishing off the tops of the resulting texture leaving them a lighter gray than the reddish tones of the firescale in the recesses. Firescale is caused by oxygen combining with copper present in the silver-copper alloy. A sterling silver alloy contains 925 parts out of a thousand parts silver, and 75 parts out of a thousand parts copper. When the alloy is exposed to oxygen in the air at higher temperatures during annealing or soldering procedures, the copper at the surface is converted to Cu2O (cuprous oxide) which has a reddish color, then to cupric oxide Cu O which is black. It is, however, not just the metal at the very surface that is affected but deep inside the metal as well. Silver has the ability to absorb oxygen at high temperatures and conduct the oxygen to the interior of the metal itself where it can bond with copper atoms present thus causing deep firescale to occur."

The most common application is metallurgical. Heat treatments are also used in the manufacture of many other materials, such as glass. Heat treatment involves the use of heating or chilling, normally to extreme temperatures, to achieve a desired result such as hardening or softening of a material. Heat treatment techniques include annealing, case hardening, precipitation strengthening, tempering, normalizing and quenching. It is noteworthy that while the term heat treatment applies only to processes where the heating and cooling are done for the specific purpose of altering properties intentionally, heating and cooling often occur incidentally during other manufacturing processes such as hot forming or welding.

As a Machinist you should have knowledge about the numbering systems in order to find the proper metal, or make an intelligent substitution. Be careful when making substitutions by chemical comparisons alone because, depending on the process used during manufacture, metals with the same chemical compositions can have quite different strength and mechanical properties. When a job of critical nature is involved the correct material with the correct specification should be employed. UNIFIED NUMBERING SYSTEM. A.

"text": "Home » Aluminium alloys Different types of alloy Alloy forms Casting alloys are alloys that contain a total of up to 20% silicon, magnesium and copper as alloying elements and can only be formed by casting. The starting material is usually secondary aluminium (aluminium recovered from scrap). Here, the need for favourable casting properties is of primary concern. In addition, the compositions of casting alloys are tailored to the respective casting process (sand casting, permanent-mould casting or die-casting) to be used. Alloys with a silicon content of 5 to 20% have the most favourable casting properties. Wrought alloys contain up to 10% alloying elements and are chosen for their good formability. One differentiates between age-hardenable and non-age-hardenable wrought alloys: In non-age-hardenable alloys, all of the alloying elements are present in solid solution. These alloys are readily formable. In age-hardenable alloys, the alloying elements are present at room temperature in the form of precipitates. Their distribution determines the strength of the alloy."

All forms can then be readily fabricated into finished products using a wide range of processes. A range of cutting and pre-fabrication services are available including coil slitting, cut-to-length and guillotining of sheet and plate, cut lengths of extrusion and tube, polishing, coating, drilling, slotting, bending and weld preparation of edges. Cutting Aluminium can be cut by many different methods depending on the shape and form of the aluminium. Aluminium plate is cut with various types of saw and also laser, plasma or water jet to produce finished sizes that can have intricate shapes. The advantage of water jet cutting is the lack of heat and therefore no alteration of the properties of the aluminium. Aluminium extrusion and tube is routinely cut with carbon tipped circular saw blades. Blade cutting can be improved by using a stick wax on the blade to improve lubrication. Other cutting methods include band-sawing and guillotining. Aalco routinely supply plate cut to size including circles, rings and irregular shapes."

Type 316L is a low-carbon modification of Type 316. The following is a comparison of these alloys. The maximum carbon content in Type 316 is 0.08%. The carbon content is controlled to a maximum of 0.03% in 316L, which minimizes the problem of carbide precipitation during the welding process. If austenitic stainless steels are welded at a high temperature, carbon can combine with the chromium to form chromium carbide in the heat affected zone of the weld. The loss of chromium in the alloy can cause a reduction in the corrosion resistance of the alloy in that area. Carbide precipitation can be prevented by closely controlling the welding temperature or by solution annealing the parts after welding. Where that is not practical the use of a low carbon alloy reduces the possibility of carbide precipitation. Except for the improved weldability of the alloy, 316L has similar corrosion resistance and mechanical properties to 316."

High temperatures allow diffusion processes to occur fast. The time at the high temperature (soaking time) is long enough to allow the desired transformation to occur. Cooling is done slowly to avoid the distortion (warping) of the metal piece, or even cracking, caused by stresses induced by differential contraction due to thermal inhomogeneities. Benefits of annealing are:relieve stressesincrease softness, ductility and toughnessproduce a specific microstructure11.2 Process Annealing Deforming a piece that has been strengthened by cold working requires a lot of energy. Reverting the effect of cold work by process annealing eases further deformation. Heating allows recovery and recrystallization but is usually limited to avoid excessive grain growth and oxidation.11.3 Stress Relief Stresses resulting from machining operations of non-uniform cooling can be eliminated by stress relief annealing at moderately low temperatures, such that the effect of cold working and other heat treatments is maintained.11.4 Annealing of Ferrous Alloys Normalizing (or austenitizing) consists in taking the Fe-C alloy to the austenitic phase which makes the grain size more uniform, followed by cooling in air. Full anneal involves taking hypoeutectoid alloys to the austenite phase and hypereutectoid alloys over the eutectoid temperature (Fig. 11.1) to soften pieces which have been hardened by plastic deformation, and which need to be machined. Spheroidizing consists in prolongued heating just below the eutectoid temperature, which results in the soft spheroidite structure discussed in Sect."

The first is \"\"Sambuca Agrumi\"\" a mix of Star anise and citrus, second is \"\"Stellato\"\" a 100% star anise variety, and the third is Liquirizia which is a star anise and licorice mix. Fratelli Averna dates back to 1868, and is much more well known here for their Amaro Bitters, than their sambuca, which is a recent import. This was good news to me as I have a Pavlovian response to bad sambuca in the form of projectile vomiting. This is probably due in part on the adventure I embarked on in Boston with my administrative assistant (and personal Mephistopheles) during a conference in Boston. By 8 p.m., he was so drunk from sambuca he lost all control of his bladder while laughing too hard - he found this too was uproariously funny. . .this was merely the beginning of the evening with 9 hours to go. Needless to say my heart (and stomach) was filled with loathing for cheap sambuca ever since. However, Averna is not this type!

Even though transitioning to a dollar coin would save taxpayer money, be better for the environment and improve commerce for many industries, some people are still reluctant to make the change for the simple reason that dollar coins are slightly bulkier and heavier than dollar notes. But, we wondered, how great of an inconvenience is it, really? We carry all sorts of things in our pockets, purses and wallets all the time — many of them quite heavy. And yet it’s really not something we think about on a day-to-day basis. To get a sense, we did an informal experiment. Using our handy office postal scale, we weighed five dollar coins (which we figured was a reasonable number that a person would be carrying around at any one time) and compared the weight to other common items. We also pitted the $1 coin against 4 quarters in the ultimate currency smackdown. One Dollar Coin vs. Four Quarters One Dollar Coin: 0.3 oz Four Quarters: 0.8 oz The ultimate showdown — a dollar coin versus four quarters. And, guess what?"

Amazon Prime launched in 2005 as a premium variation on its \"\"Super Saver Shipping\"\" program, which until a few months ago offered free but slower shipping in exchange for a $25 minimum order (the minimum rose to $35 in October). Super Saver stoked sales in two ways. The minimum order requirement meant that customers might buy more than they planned just to hit the free-shipping mark. Cutting shipping from the final price of an order also eliminated one of the main reasons people still prefer shopping in physical stores."

"text": "John Zeedick—APBy Brad Tuttle June 30, 2016After much speculation, Amazon has made it official that the second edition of Amazon Prime Day will take place on Tuesday, July 12, 2016. Amazon Prime members can look forward to more than 100,000 deals in 10 countries popping up periodically on Prime Day, plus a week’s worth of special “countdown” sales leading up to the big day. The first-ever Prime Day made a splash one year ago in mid-July with tens of thousands of special one-day deals, available strictly for subscribers to Amazon’s $99-per-year Prime service, which includes unlimited online photo storage, video and music streaming, and two-day free shipping on most Amazon purchases. Amazon hyped Prime Day, first held in honor of the company’s 20th anniversary in e-retail, as being bigger than Black Friday. And indeed, Amazon reported that its sales on Prime Day were up 80% compared with a normal day, and that the rate of sales even surpassed Black Friday. Arguably more importantly for Amazon, Prime Day helped boost the ranks of Amazon’s highly lucrative subscription service, Prime. Once a customer is a Prime member, after all, his spending at Amazon tends to go through the roof, hence the reason that Amazon has been relentless in its strategies to convert shoppers into Prime members— wealthy households especially. Prime Day deals can only be purchased by Prime members, so the event is an obvious push to increase subscriptions. Amazon repeatedly mentions in marketing material that Prime subscriptions are available for free on a 30-day trial basis, with the obvious hope that during those 30 days the service will win customers over—or people will simply forget to cancel—and they’ll become paying members who cough up $99 annually and do a huge chunk of their shopping with the site year in, year out. For Prime Day 2016, the push is on to win over new Prime subscribers and snag sales worldwide."

"text": "Complain About Late Deliveries To Get Free Amazon Prime12.26.1310:14 AM EDT By Chris Morran@themorrancavethe squeaky wheelamazonamazon prime ( Alan Rappa)Amazon Prime customers may feel frustrated that they pay the $79/year fee only to find that their packages are still subject to the same delays as everyone else. But Prime members who carefully monitor their purchases can score free extensions on the service if a package is not delivered on time. And even if you’re not a Prime member, you can still get a discount if a guaranteed delivery date is not met. The folks at Deal News.com tested Amazon’s policy of giving 1-month free extensions to Prime accounts for shipments that don’t meet their guaranteed delivery dates. ( NOTE: This extension policy does not cover free Prime accounts like Amazon Student and Amazon Mom, only paid Prime memberships. ) So when they realized their order of a roll of Spider-Man duct tape (which is apparently a thing that exists and you can buy) was a few hours past the guaranteed delivery time, they wrote to Amazon customer service and asked about whether they would be eligible for the free Prime extension. Amazon wrote back, gladly extending the Prime membership for another month. This, in theory, could be done up to 12 times for a Prime shopper, so customers who do a lot of buying on the site — and who keep track of exactly when items are guaranteed to be delivered — can get two years of the service for the price of one. Even those Prime customers who are in the 30-day trial period can score one free month of service by complaining about a late delivery. Deal News says that non-Prime customers can have their shipping costs refunded if a guaranteed delivery date is not met."

From coffee shops to bookstores, grocery stores to pharmacies, it seems like everyone is trying to get in on the loyalty program trend. Wallets and key chains bulge with little loyalty cards, usually obtained simply by making a purchase and providing a little bit of personal information. Traditional loyalty programs work by giving customers rewards based on the purchases they make. Amazon, however, has been able to successfully market a program called Amazon Prime, where customers actually pay a fee to enjoy the benefits. It’s not a cheap venture, and it is definitely important to weigh the benefits against your own needs before paying the price. Here’s what I’ve learned in my year of using the Amazon Prime service. What Is Amazon Prime? Amazon Prime is a subscription service offered by online giant, Amazon.com.

That's a huge deal. For $180, the connected Bluetooth speaker was already a good value; it sounds good, takes voice commands like a champ and is adding support for various apps and services at fast pace.

It all started in the July, 1994 when former investment banker Jeff Bezos left New York City for Seattle to launch a new on-line book store. Amazon.com took shape over the next 12 months and the company's web storefront recorded its first sale in July, 1995. By year-end 1996, Amazon.com had generated $15.7 Million in sales. On May 15, 1997 Amazon.com raised $54 Million of capital with an IPO on the NASDAQ (AMZN). The company grew at an astonishing pace with sales reaching $1.6 Billion by the end of 1999."

The online retailer said Wednesday that the self-created holiday was its biggest sales day ever, with worldwide orders rising more than 60 percent compared with the previous Prime Day. In the U.

To qualify for the sales event, which was created last year to celebrate Amazon's 20th birthday, shoppers need to be members of the service. \"\" The numbers blew me away,\"\" R. J.

FBIC analyst Deborah Weinswig estimates sales at $525 million, up 26 percent from their projected sales of $415 million a year ago. Analysts attributed the lift in Amazon's order volume to several factors. For one, it stocked its virtual shelves more deeply, allowing more customers to buy the deals they wanted, R. W.

The company is rolling out scores of deep deals all day. But there's a catch: It's for Amazon Prime members only. The event could be seen as simply a marketing scheme to drive sales activity and to boost Amazon Prime memberships (which cost $99 a year), but you can't deny that there's some great stuff on sale for cheap. If you're a Prime member, there are some important details to know. Prime day starts at the stroke of midnight (Pacific Time) on July 15, but you don't have to hop online at the wee hours to score the good deals. New sales begin throughout the day, as often as every 10 minutes. Since deals will be coming and going all day, the best way to keep track is on Amazon's Prime Day landing page.

Chestnut tree pruning can keep a tree healthier, create a more attractive tree and increase nut production. Pruning chestnut trees is not difficult. Read on to learn why and how to prune a chestnut tree. Reasons for Trimming a Chestnut Tree Whether you grow one chestnut tree in your backyard or have an orchard for commercial production, the most important reason to begin pruning chestnut trees is to improve their health. You should remove any branches that might cause the tree problems in the future. This includes broken branches, diseased branches and branches with too narrow a crotch angle. Keeping your chestnut tree balanced is also important to its health. Consider starting chestnut tree pruning if branches on one side are significantly bigger and heavier than branches on the other. Commercial chestnut producers also prune their trees to help improve production."

"text": "\"There are many differences between the horse chestnut and the chestnut tree. ( Image: horse chestnut leaves image by Edsweb from Fotolia.com)The horse chestnut and the chestnut tree are two entirely different trees. Although they both bear the name \"\"chestnut,\"\" they are not relatedl. The horse chestnut is cultivated mainly for its ornamental value; its fruit is inedible. The fruit of the chestnut tree, however, may be eaten. There are other differences between the trees. Leaves The leaves of the horse chestnut are palmately compound--with five leaflets radiating from the center of the stalk--and have fine-toothed margins. They vary in size, from 4 to 10 inches long. Chestnut leaves are single--only one per stem--and are narrow and elliptic in shape. They are 5 to 8 inches long."

Horse chestnuts ( Aesculus hippocastanum) are large flowering trees, similar to buckeyes, with showy, white blooms in spring. These are followed by attractive, spiny, green seedpods from midsummer through fall. In addition to their beautiful flowers and seedpods, horse chestnut trees also exhibit interesting bark with twisted limbs. One note of caution: do not confuse these ornamental tree with other chestnut trees ( Castanea genus), which are edible. The fruit of horse chestnuts should not be eaten.

Bark mushrooms most often grow in cool, rainy coastal areas and on the shady, north side of trees. White Rot Bark Mushrooms Mushrooms that cause white rot break down the lignin in trees, leaving white cellulose behind. White rot mushrooms grow slowly, and the damage is typically limited, although sometimes it can kill a tree. The grayish-white split gill mushroom (Schizophyllum commune) causes white rot in more than 75 trees, including acacia, ash, birch, fir, laurel, locust, magnolia, oak oleander, pine, poplar, sequoia, spruce and willow.

At maturity these trees can reach more than 30 feet tall, and you need several trees if you want them to produce nuts. Chestnuts come in several varieties and most grow well in U. S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 4 through 8. The nuts fall from the tree when they reach maturity, making your job easier because you don't need any special equipment.1Spread a tarp or blanket under the chestnut tree when the nuts begin to drop from it in early fall. Cover the ground beneath the entire canopy to collect as many nuts as possible over the two- to four-week harvest window.2Collect the fallen nuts every two days. The most mature nuts are full size with the husk already splitting open on its own.3Peel the green husk off each chestnut promptly after harvest to minimize spoilage. Rinse any husk residue or soil from the shells with clean water.4Refrigerate the chestnuts immediately after cleaning and store them in the freezer or refrigerator for up to three months. Alternatively, dry the nuts at 95 to 105 degrees Fahrenheit for three to four days for a longer storage life.

Chesnuts produce a delicate and slightly sweet flavor in the nut while softening the texture to potato-like consistency. But chestnuts can also be candied — marrons glaces in French—and ground into a flour that's common in soups and desserts. Corsicans fry them into donuts. Hungarians, French, and Swiss sweeten and puree them. We are familiar with the line from the \"\"The Christmas Song\"\", \"\"Chestnuts roasting on an open fire,\"\" but beyond that many of us have never cooked a chestnut in the kitchen, let alone on an open fire. This guide will take you beyond the \"\"open fire\"\" and give you more insight into this versatile nut. Chestnut Cooking Tips Raw chestnuts are not fit to eat, and that's why cooking chestnuts are so important. The best cooking methods allow you to cook the nut in the shell, and then remove it when it's softened.

And this month, you might be tempted to forage one of autumn’s most familiar offerings: chestnuts. But before you do, know what you’ve gathered before it finds its way into the oven. Horse chestnuts (Neil Giardino/KPLU)Horse chestnuts, conker trees, buckeyes—call them what you like; just don’t call them true American chestnuts. Aesculus hippocastanum by their Latin designation, these natives of the mountainous slopes of the eastern Balkan forests are only distant relatives of the true chestnut tree. The tree’s common name is a misnomer. Although the horse chestnut’s fruit bears a likeness to its good-natured cousin, the true American chestnut, the horse chestnut’s seed, or conker, is poisonous."

To tell the difference between an edible chestnut (from Castanea Sativa) and a non-edible chestnut ( Horse Chestnut or Buckeye) you need to take a close look at the pod that the chestnuts grow in. Once the chestnut (seeds) are out of their pods they can look very similar to each other. The pod of the edible sweet chestnut has a sort of \"\"porcupine\"\" look to it with thin prickly spikes that point out in all directions and form a sort of thicket where you cannot see anything but the spikes. These are green while the chestnuts are forming and then turn brown when the chestnuts are mature. Handling these pods without gloves can be quite tricky. The chestnuts from a Horse Chestnut or Buckeye on the other hand have short bumpy spikes on a smooth ball shaped fruit where you can see the surface between the spikes. As you can see in these images there are a lot fewer spikes which are also shorter and less pointy than those of the edible chestnuts. The leaves are also very different. Those of the Horse Chestnut and Buckey are palmate with five leaflets like the one in the image below. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"

"text": "Your Whey Protein and Whey Isolate May Not Be Gluten-Free: Beware “Glutamine Peptides”No, whey protein isn’t paleo…but it sure is convenient to have a portable, non-perishable, and relatively cheap source of quickly-digested protein for when I don’t have access to real food or the time to cook it. However, as with any dietary supplement, we must always be on the alert for misleading packaging or adulterants—as white pills and white powders all look basically the same. This is yet another reason to prefer real food: it’s much harder to counterfeit eggs, vegetables, or a steak than it is to counterfeit pills and powders. How I Found The Gluten I purchase unflavored whey protein for several reasons. First, it’s typically sweetened with Splenda (sucralose): Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health, Part A, Volume 71, Issue 21 January 2008 , pages 1415 – 1429 Splenda Alters Gut Microflora and Increases Intestinal P-Glycoprotein and Cytochrome P-450 in Male Rats Mohamed B. Abou-Donia; Eman M. El-Masry; Ali A. Abdel-Rahman; Roger E. Mc Lendon; Susan S. Schiffman“Evidence indicates that a 12-wk administration of Splenda exerted numerous adverse effects, including (1) reduction in beneficial fecal microflora, (2) increased fecal p H, and (3) enhanced expression levels of P-gp, CYP3A4, and CYP2D1, which are known to limit the bioavailability of orally administered drugs.” … “ The intake of Splenda by rats significantly reduced the number of indigenous intestinal bacteria resident in the gut, with the greatest suppression for the generally beneficial anaerobes (e.g., bifidobacteria, lactobacilli, and Bacteroides). ” … “ The reduction in intestinal bacteria in this study was accompanied by an increase in fecal p H that typically occurs when there is a decrease in the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) by colonic bacteria.” … “ At the end of the 12-wk treatment with Splenda, numerous alterations were observed that did not occur in control animals, including lymphocytic infiltrates into epithelium, epithelial scarring, mild depletion of goblet cells, glandular disorganization, and focally dilated vessels stuffed with intravascular lymphocytes. ” And in case that isn’t bad enough, even the lowest Splenda dose apparently caused a significant increase in body weight. The second reason: buying whey protein that tastes like a chocolate milkshake or a cinnamon bun (yes, that flavor exists) would just tempt me to consume it instead of real food."

But for this substance to pose a risk of toxicity or cancer, it must be present in foods in much larger amounts, and these larger amounts do not occur unless those foods have been cooked. In addition to certain cooked foods that can expose us to large amounts of acrylamide, there are many non-dietary sources exposure to this substance. These non-dietary sources include cigarette smoke (about 1-2 micrograms per cigarette) and cosmetics. There is also airborne release of acrylamide during many different manufacturing processes, including the manufacturing of paper, asphalt, petroleum, photographic film, construction adhesives, varnishes, and dyes. The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has estimated that U. S. adults average 0.4 micrograms of dietary acrylamide intake per kilogram of body weight each day. For an adult weighing 150 pounds, this amount translates into approximately 27 micrograms of dietary acrylamide per day. EPA Guideline for Acrylamide Intake In 2010, the EPA established an Rf D (Reference Dose) for oral intake of acrylamide. Reference doses are amounts of daily exposure over a lifetime that can be predicted to produce no noticeable health effects.

Vegetables and grains contain the very same eight amino acids as animal foods do, only in differing amounts. As long as you are getting enough calories from a healthy diet, plant foods can give you all the amino acids you need, by themselves or in combination with one another. If you are in the early stages of becoming vegetarian, or just trying to cut back on meat, the important things to remember in order to maintain a healthy vegetarian diet are:learn to combine and complete proteinsavoid empty, fatty calories. Sometimes it can be hard work to be vegetarian - every meal has to be balanced and well thought-out. That's where your creativity comes into the picture - experiment with flavours, seasonings and textures - it can be a fun and rewarding journey!Below is a list of some foods that contain all the essential amino acids, meaning they are \"\"Complete Protein Combinations\"\". Use this as a guide for meal planning. GRAINS Brown rice, oats (cereals - oatmeal, granola, etc.) millet, corn, barley, bulgur, wheat (including whole wheat bread, pastas, cereals, flour, etc.). I'll include Quinoa in this section, although technically it is not a grain."

"text": "Amino Acids What are amino acids? Definition and Structure Amino acids are organic nutrients that appear in foods and in the human body either as building blocks of proteins or as free amino acids. Amino acids are made of the amino group (NH 2 ), carboxyl group (COOH) and a side chain containing carbon, hydrogen or oxygen; two amino acids (cysteine and methionine) also contain sulfur and one (selenocysteine) contains selenium. Picture 1. General amino acid structure: All amino acids contain the amino and carboxyl group; it is the side chain that makes amino acids different from each other. Essential, Conditionally-Essential and Nonessential Amino Acids21 amino acids can form proteins in the human body; they are called proteinogenic, standard, typical, canonical or natural amino acids.

"text": "\"Food & Drink Vegetarian & Vegan Best substitutes for animal protein? Thinking about going vegan.. how do i substitute and correctly balance veggie proteins? I know nuts, beans etc have protein but don't i need different combos of amino's ? Update: oh and what about calcium ? Follow 7 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Being a healthy vegan doesn't just mean substituting meat/dairy proteins for vegan ones. Variety is key for a vegan. You'll need to source all kinds of different foods for a complete diet. If you're creative and like to experiment it can be simple. You have to eat very balanced meals making sure you get all your nutrients like: amino acids (coconut water & coconut\"\"meat\"\", Braggs amino acids), calcium (dark leafy greens), fats and fatty acids (unsaturated fats like avocados, oil, and nuts), proteins (dark leafy greens, beans/peas, tofu, soy, tempeh, wheat gluten if you're not allergic to wheat, quinoa), simple carbs & fiber (quinoa, brown rice, bulgar wheat) electrolytes (miso, coconut water), folic acid (dark leafy greens, okra, asparagus, pineapple) bioflavonoids (citrus fruit, berries), your b vitamins (sea vegetables/seaweed, root vegetables), trace minerals (dark leafy greens, root vegetables) When you make salads don't use lots of romain & iceberg lettuce since they actually don't have much nutritional value besides being a very good source of water. You should make your salad with dark leafy greens- spinach, kale, collard greens have just as much protein & calcium as milk does ounce per ounce."

It is high in many nutrients, and is often referred to as a \"\"superfood. \"\" Quinoa (pronounced KEEN-wah) is actually not a grain, but a pseudo-cereal, a seed that is prepared and consumed like a grain. However, quinoa is higher in nutrients than most grains ( 1, 2 ). Quinoa has a crunchy texture and nutty flavor. It is also gluten-free, so it can be enjoyed by individuals who are sensitive to gluten or wheat. Quinoa seeds are flat, oval-shaped and usually pale yellow, but the color can range from pink to black, and the taste can vary from bitter to sweet ( 2 ). It is usually boiled and consumed as a side dish, as breakfast porridge, added to salads, or used to thicken soups. The seeds can also be sprouted, ground and used as flour, or they can be popped like popcorn. Quinoa is an excellent food for babies ( 2, 3 )."

This article focuses on protein, one of the three macronutrients needed for health and survival. * A complete protein provides all essential amino acids and sufficient total protein. * An incomplete protein is either low in one or more essential amino acids, or low in total protein. There are eight essential amino acids, and several semi-essential amino acids. But I’ll simply it for you. The vast majority of dietary patterns on the face of the earth, whether based on cereals (grains, pseudo-cereals), pulses (beans, peas, etc. ), seeds/nuts, or tubers (potato, yam, etc.) provide sufficient amounts of all essential amino acids, with a few exceptions. The essential amino acids that are most likely to be lacking in any diet are lysine (lacking in grains), or methionine (lacking in pulses), or tryptophan (lacking in various foods)."

Spelt is a grain that contains gluten, much less than common wheat, but it is not a gluten free grain. It is recommended to seek a naturopath to know which gluten grains you are intolerant to. Spelt (Triticum spelta)is an ancient grain which should not be confused with common bread wheat (Triticum sativum), rye, barley or even oats. Spelt is a member of the same grain family but is an entirely different species and has certain properties which make it in many respects quite different. Having fallen from favour as a grain for cultivation in the 19th century following the rapid development in modern farming techniques, spelt is currently enjoying a resurgence in popularity as information about its value as a food source and its ability to be tolerated by many people with wheat sensitivities becomes more widely known. History and Origins Spelt is approximately 9000 years old. There is evidence that spelt was cultivated by ancient civilizations both in Europe and the Middle East thousands of years ago. It is mentioned in the Old Testament and in various Roman texts. Carbonated grains of spelt have been found throughout Europe including Britain, in many Stone Age excavations."

Protein has multiple functions:build and repair body tissue.maintain cell growth in the formation of new body tissue. This is especially important if the body is growing rapidly, injured, or under stress.aid in the formation of enzymes, some hormones and antibodies.provide as energy if sufficient carbohydrates and fats are not supplied by the diet. Individuals must supply themselves with fresh protein daily, since proteins are constantly needed to replace the wear and tear of the tissues and keep up the protein concentration in the blood serum. Protein can take the place of some fat and carbohydrate, but fat and carbohydrate cannot serve in place of the body's need for protein. That is why the minimum amount of protein, from a good source, must be consumed daily. The best animal sources of protein for optimum health are milk, eggs, cheese and lean meat. It is not necessary, however, to devour pounds of steak, dozens of eggs or gallons of milk daily for that purpose."

The rabbit excretes excess nitrogen if its feed is rich with protein. Bacteria then convert the nitrogen to ammonia, which serves to feed the bacteria. If your rabbitry smells of ammonia, perhaps the percentage of protein in the feed is a bit too high. Or, in pet rabbits, it may be time to change the rabbit's litter.

One of the worst disasters in U. S. history involving a form of ammonia occurred in April 1947 when a ship loaded with ammonium nitrate -- a solid fertlizer composed of ammonia and nitrogen -- caught fire while docked in Texas City, Texas, in April 1947. The fire caused an explosion that damaged more than 1,000 buildings, according to the website of the Texas Historical Association. The blast ignited a fire on a second ship docked in Galveston Bay that was also loaded with ammonium nitrate. With most of the city's fire fighters killed in the first blast, the fire burned for 16 hours and caused another huge explosion. Volunteers fought to put out subsequent blazes. The historical association said almost 400 people were killed and more than 175 were listed as missing."

This amide has two –NH 2 groups joined by a carbonyl (C=O) functional group. Urea serves an important role in the metabolism of nitrogen -containing compounds by animals and is the main nitrogen-containing substance in the urine of mammals. It is a colorless, odorless solid, highly soluble in water, and practically non-toxic ( LD 50 is 15 g/kg for rats). Dissolved in water, it is neither acidic nor alkaline. The body uses it in many processes, most notably nitrogen excretion. The liver forms it by combining two ammonia molecules (NH 3) with a carbon dioxide (CO 2) molecule in the urea cycle. Urea is widely used in fertilizers as a source of nitrogen and is an important raw material for the chemical industry. Friedrich Wöhler 's discovery in 1828 that urea can be produced from inorganic starting materials was an important conceptual milestone in chemistry."

An exothermic (exo- is a prefix meaning \"\"out of\"\") reaction is one where the energy flows out of the system into the environment. Combustion reactions are exothermic. Some exothermic reactions may require heating just to get started, and will then proceed on their own. Exothermic reactions pose special hazards whether occurring in the open environment or within a closed container. In the open, the heat evolved will raise the temperature of the reactants, of any products of the reaction, and of surrounding materials. Since several properties of all substances are a function of temperature, such as pressure, the resulting higher temperatures may affect how the materials involved behave in the environment. Heat will increase the vapor pressures of hazardous materials and the rate at which they vaporize. If very high temperatures are achieved, nearby combustible materials may ignite. Explosive materials, whether they are the reactants of the reaction or just nearby, may explode upon ignition or excessive heating."

You can smell or see pet urine stains that no matter how much you bleach or wash with vinegar don’t go away. It’s as if you have to settle with the fact that once dog or cat urine has seeped into concrete, it’s there forever. What’s worse is it seems to give off a permanent urine odor, constantly releasing odorous and offensive fumes. Let’s take a look at how we can remove pet urine from concrete the right way so that you have a clean smelling cement floor again. Getting That Dog or Cat Urine Off Your Concrete As you already know, concrete is dry and hard as rock. But it is also quite porous. This means, that anything liquid that comes into contact with bare (unsealed) concrete will saturate concrete. Usually this is harmless, but not when it comes to pet urine. Dog or cat urine can seep deep within concrete; and anyone who has had cats or dogs knows that animal urine can be difficult to get rid of from your garage floor, basements and under carpet pads."

"text": "Full Answer The human nose is able to detect ammonia at levels far below those likely to cause health problems. While most products containing ammonia limit it to less than 10 percent, it still causes respiratory problems in some individuals at these concentrations, especially children, according to Healthy Child Healthy World. Ammonia also can cause skin burns in humans. Its fumes react with other chemicals in the atmosphere to create compounds that attach to fibers in the home, prolonging its effect on the occupants. Mixing cleaning products containing ammonia with other cleaning products can cause violent reactions. Mixing bleach and ammonia releases toxic chloramine vapors. Farmers use ammonia as a fertilizer. The products they use for fertilizer have a higher concentration of ammonia than that of household products. These higher concentrations mean the products are more dangerous to those working around them. Individuals living near farms where ammonia is in use are likely to experience exposure to fumes when the farmer applies the product."

[ 1] Place motion-activated devices near the perimeter of your house, at the front of your property, around fruit trees, or on any other spots where possums frequent. Motion-activated devices are triggered once the possum crosses the sensor, and once these devices turn on, they may frighten many possums away. Motion-activated sprinklers tend to be slightly more effective than motion-activated lights. Lights are enough to frighten away skittish possums that are afraid of humans, but water sprinklers work better with possums that are a little more mature and a little harder to startle.to Get Rid of Possums2 Scatter dog or cat fur. The smell of a potential predator might be enough to deter many possums from hanging around. Do not let your dog or cat roam free through the yard for the purpose of scaring away possums. They could get into a fight with aggressive possums or other dangerous animals. Collect pet hair after brushing your dog or cat. Place the hair in small mesh bags and hang them or scatter them around areas at which possums frequently gather.3 Spread something that smells potent."

Many toxin-liberating or potentially explosive chemical reactions aren’t encountered outside the controlled environment of a laboratory, as the required reagents are rare or controlled, but even household substances, if mixed in the wrong combinations, can liberate poisonous vapors. It’s a good idea to be aware of such reactions, and to avoid them at all costs. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Bleach and Acid Household bleach is a ubiquitous and useful cleaning agent, but it’s quite reactive and produces toxic fumes if combined with acids such as vinegar. If exposed to acid, the chlorine-containing molecule that comprises bleach, called sodium hypochlorite, reacts to produce highly toxic chlorine gas. According to the Material Safety Data Sheet, chlorine gas causes respiratory, skin, and eye burns. Exposure to small amounts is damaging and can produce difficulty breathing and permanent respiratory impairment. Significant exposure results in death. Bleach and Ammonia Ammonia is a form of base, the chemical opposite of an acid. Household bleach reacts with ammonia, common in many cleaning agents such as window solution, to produce a series of toxic gases."

This amide has two –NH 2 groups joined by a carbonyl (C=O) functional group. Urea serves an important role in the metabolism of nitrogen -containing compounds by animals and is the main nitrogen-containing substance in the urine of mammals. It is a colorless, odorless solid, highly soluble in water, and practically non-toxic ( LD 50 is 15 g/kg for rats). Dissolved in water, it is neither acidic nor alkaline. The body uses it in many processes, most notably nitrogen excretion. The liver forms it by combining two ammonia molecules (NH 3) with a carbon dioxide (CO 2) molecule in the urea cycle. Urea is widely used in fertilizers as a source of nitrogen and is an important raw material for the chemical industry. Friedrich Wöhler 's discovery in 1828 that urea can be produced from inorganic starting materials was an important conceptual milestone in chemistry."

Follow 3 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Acid rain is actually a mix of very weak solutions of nitric and sulfuric acids. By the sound of things, you aren't well qualified to be playing with any of them. They are dangerous and they will hurt you when concentrated.icynici · 1 decade ago1 0 Comment Synthesis and production Nitric acid is made by mixing nitrogen dioxide (NO2) with water in the presence of oxygen or air to oxidize nitric oxide produced by the reaction. Dilute nitric acid may be concentrated by distillation up to 68% acid, which is an azeotropic mixture with 32% water. Further concentration involves distillation with sulfuric acid which acts as a dehydrating agent. On a laboratory scale, such distillation must be done in all glass apparatus at reduced pressure, to prevent decomposition of the acid. Commercial grade nitric acid solutions are usually between 52% and 68% nitric acid."

"text": "Dog urine doesn't just smell bad, it can pose health hazards. In addition to the bacteria that may be present in the urine, one of the primary components of urine is ammonia, which can be dangerous in high concentrations. Clean up after indoor accidents promptly and ventilate the area thoroughly. Nooooooo!credit: tomdanger/jujeecmu/i Stock/Getty Images Ammonia Fumes Ammonia fumes are irritating to the nose, throat and lungs. When ammonia contacts mucous membranes like the eyes, nose or mouth, it bonds with the water, creating ammonium hydroxide. The caustic action of this compound creates respiratory distress that can lead to respiratory failure. When your dog urinates outdoors, the ammonia tends to dissipate in the air. However, in areas with reduced ventilation -- such as a home -- the amount of ammonia present in the air can cause serious health problems. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration requires protective breathing gear anytime the air contains more than 50 parts of ammonia per million parts of air. However, according to the Hoarding Animals Research Consortium, ammonia levels may be triple that amount in neglected homes."

Contents Team News Catalog Search Comm All About Hydrazine Hydrazine Hydrazine, or diamine, in the form of propellant for thrusters, is by far the most common means of spacecraft propulsion and attitude control. Hydrazine has excellent handling characteristics, relative stability under normal conditions, and clean decomposition products. Hydrazine is not very safe above 150 C, but is technically stable to about 250 C. Hydrazine monopropellant thrusters consist simply of an electric solenoid valve, which allows pressurised hydrazine to enter the engine as a spray, a catalytist bed of alumina pellets impregnated with iridium (such as Shell Oil Company's Shell 405), and an expansion nozzle. These engines typically have twice the thrust-to-weight ratio of MMH/N 2 O 4 bipropellant thrusters, although monopropellant thrusters range from three times lighter to being of equal weight for a given thrust (the thrusters listed in the 100-150 N range were of equal T: W). Hydrazine may be useful as a power source. Hydrazine-oxygen fuel cells are considered superior to ammonia and methanol fuel cells, and next to hydrogen units in specific power (see S. S. Tomter and A. P. Anthony, The Hydrazine Fuel Cell System in Fuel Cells, American Institute of Chemical engineers, New York (1963), pg 22-31). Hydrazine is reactive and highly soluble in the electrolyte, yielding high current densities. As of the late 1960s, hydrazine fuel cells awaited a significant cost reduction to see their widespread application."

It's a fresh pile of chicken feces, also known as chicken manure, chicken poo and by other names. It's about the size of the last joint in your thumb. The nice thing about this picture is that it so clearly shows the white, pasty stuff on the right side of the dropping. That white paste is composed mostly of uric acid, and here's the story about that: Every second of the day and night, animals are producing waste products inside their bodies. If those waste products are not removed from the body, the animal may become ill or die. One of the most dangerous of all such waste products is the chemical resulting from the normal breakdown of amino acids (which make up protein) and nucleic acids (of which our genetic material is composed). The main waste product formed during this decomposition is ammonia, NH 3, which is toxic -- poisonous. In mammals such as us humans, our waste ammonia is combined with carbon dioxide, CO 2, and converted into urea, CO (NH 3) 2, which is less toxic than ammonia, and which dissolves very easily in water. Our bodies dissolve their urea in water, making urine."

D. Updated July 03, 2017Mixing bleach and ammonia is extremely dangerous, since toxic vapors will be produced. The primary toxic chemical formed by the reaction is chloramine vapor, which has the potential to form hydrazine. Chloramine is actually a group of related compounds that are all respiratory irritants. Hydrazine is also an irritant, plus it can cause edema, headache, nausea, and seizures. There are two main ways to accidentally mix these chemicals. The first is to mix cleaning products (generally a bad idea). The second is using chlorine bleach to disinfect water that contains organic matter (like from a pond). Here's a look at the chemical reactions involved in mixing bleach and ammonia, as well as some first aid advice if you're accidentally exposed to a bleach and ammonia mixture.

A minor tautomer of HCN is HNC, hydrogen isocyanide. Hydrogen cyanide is weakly acidic with a p K a of 9.2. It partially ionizes in water solution to give the cyanide anion, CN −. A solution of hydrogen cyanide in water, represented as HCN, is called hydrocyanic acid. The salts of the cyanide anion are known as cyanides. HCN has a faint bitter almond -like odor that some people are unable to detect owing to a recessive genetic trait. ["

Some nutrients serve as raw materials for the synthesis of cellular material; others (e.g., many vitamins) act as regulators of chemical reactions; and still others, upon oxidation, yield energy. Not all nutrients, however, are in a form suitable for immediate use by an organism; some must undergo physical and chemical changes before they can serve as energy or cell substance. Through the act of eating, or ingestion, nutrients are taken from the environment. Many nutrient molecules are so large and complex that they must be split into smaller molecules before they can be used by the organism.

An example of an autotrophic organism (living thing) would be a green plant, which makes it's own sugar in its leaves by capturing sunlight. In general, an autotrophic organism is an organism that captures it's own energy rather than getting it from another living thing. Roots can't capture light, being in the dark.

For biologists, doing this with all of the organisms there are on the earth, it makes it easier to study them!There are many different ways to group organisms.3 Early systems of classification Aristotle: plant or animal Then animals were further classified based on habitat and physical characteristics. Plants were further classified by size and structure, trees, shrubs This system did NOT take into account the changes and evolutionary history of the organisms.4 New systems of classification In the 18th century Carolus Linnaeus developed Taxonomy A branch of biology concerned with naming, identifying and classifying species based on morphological and behavioral similarities and differences. Linnaeus gave each organism 2 names A genus and a species name and called this binomial nomenclature.5 Taxonomy A systematic method of classifying plants and animals. Classification of organisms based on degrees of similarity representing evolutionary (phylogenetic) relatedness.6 Scientific Names Binomial nomenclature (Linnaeus)A 2 name system so that not two organisms will ever have the same name. The genus name is combined with a second name to make the species name unique. For example: humans Genus Homo Species Homo sapiens7 Why 2 names? The name are Latin ( the language of science)The first is the genus The second is the epithet or specific identifying name. They are both needed to identify the organism.

Protozoans are divided into 4 main groups based on their MOTILITY (motility refers to their ability to move on their own)1) Sarcodines - (Rhizopods) amoeba is the most familiar sarcodine; also includes Foraminiferans and Radiolarians Image source Motility: they have pseudopods (means \"\"false foot\"\")use their ever moving, shape changing pseudopods to capture food and to move; this is referred to as amoeboid movement.some amoebas that live in freshwater springs in countries such as Mexico can produce a painful diarrhea in those who have not developed an immunity to their effectsreproduce by binary fission Radiolarians found in warm, marine waters have a test (shell) made of silica & have sticky pseudopodia to trap food Marine Foraminiferans have a test made of calcium carbonate with holes through which pseudopodia extend Foraminiferan tests build up and form limestone or chalk (e.g. White Cliffs of Dover)Important food source in marine habitats Image source2) Ciliates (Ciliophorans) paramecium, stentors and vorticella are the most well known ciliates. Image source Motility: move using cilia - tiny hair-like structures used to move, beating them helps move food towards the organismhave two kinds of nuclei-large nucleus controls life functions & small nucleus controls reproduction called conjugation (similar to the conjugation seen in bacteria)reproduce by binary fission Form protective cysts to survive unfavorable conditions Image source3) Zoo Flagellates - (or Mastigophorans) Trypanosomes, Trichomonas & Giardia are examples of flagellates that cause illnesses Motility: flagella that twirl or work like a whipabsorb nutrients through cell membranesflagellates can be animal-like, plant-like or fungus-like; \"\"zoo\"\" means animal, so animal-like flagellates are called zooflagellates)Trypanosomes cause sleeping sickness but are carried only by Tsetse flies; Trichomonas vaginalis is sexually transmitted and causes 'trich' in the female vagina; Giardia is found in feces infested fresh water and is a parasite in the human intestine that causes severe abdominal cramps and diarrhea. Image source4) Sporozoans - ( Apicomplexans ); example: Plasmodium; parasitic protozoans that have no means of motility and must depend upon their host for transport to a new source of nutrients Image source Motility: noneparasites which feed on the cells and body fluids of their hostsuses spores to pass from one host to another Plasmodium causes Malaria and is carried by the Anopheles mosquito Image source Protozoa Summary Phylum Common Name Locomotion Type of Nutrition Examples Sarcodinasarcodinespseudopodiaheterotrophic;some parasitic Amoeba Radiolaria Naegleria Ciliophoraciliatesciliaheterotrophic;some parasitic Paramecium Tetrahymena Balantidium Mastigophoransflagellatesflagellaheterotrophic;some parasitic Trypanosoma Leishmania Giardia Trichonympha Apicomplexanssporozoansnone in adultsheterotrophic;parasitic Plasmodium Toxoplasma Plant-like (unicellular algae)autotrophs (able to produce own food)use light energy to make own food from simple raw materialsmany organisms rely on plant-like protists for foodabout 50 to 60%% of Earths oxygen is released by plant-like protistsmany plant-like protists are flagellates, called phytoflagellates- (phyto- means plant)1) Euglenophytes: Euglenas Image sourceplant-like protists that may have 2 flagella but no cell wall, have chlorophylleuglenas have no cell wall and ingest food similar to the way some protozoans do;euglenas are unique in that the are both photosynthetic and heterotrophicpossess a red 'eyespot' that enables them to detect light2) Dinoflagellates: example: Pfiesterias; Also known as Pyrrhophyta (\"\"fire algae\"\"; Greek pyrrhos, fire)some are photosynthetic, and some are heterotrophs,have flagellareproduce by binary fission Pfiesterias (as shown below) are carnivorus and secrete a toxin that kills fish; they then feed on the dead, decaying fish; they are a reddish color and when they occur in massive numbers, they create a 'red tide'; they produce a paralytic toxin that accumulates in shellfish and can be deadly to humans as well as fish Image source3) Chrysophytesyellow-green and golden-brown algaeare photosyntheticstructure is usually symmetricalstore food as oil rather than starch Image source4) Diatomsproduce thin, delicate cell walls rich in silicon (found in glass)Cell walls fit together like a box (the top is just slightly larger than the bottom Image source The shells of dead diatoms are mined and ground up to be used as an abrasive in toothpaste and scouring powders.5) Chlorophyta Green algae, color comes from chloroplasts Have cell walls Store food as starch Mostly freshwater, few marine, some in damp soil, on tree trunks, other damp surfaces Some, such as spirogyra, are multicellular but are not plants because they have a single layer of cells, as a filament, that can be broken up and each segment can still survive independently; they also do not have any specialized cells or tissues. Some, such as Volvox, are colonial, and exist as groups of individual cells that are connected and cells specialize to either reproduce or form the colony sphere; any cell could also break away and form a new colony Image source The fur of the Green Tree Sloth gets its color from green algae! It shares a symbiotic relationship with the sloth: the sloth, which lives up in the trees, is camouflaged by the algae, and the algae is exposed to sunlight that is scarce in lower regions of the tropical rain forests where sloths live. Plant-Like Protists (Red, Brown, and Green Algae)1) Red Algae: live deep in the water, can harvest light energy very well, contains chlorophyll A and phycobilins; commonly referred to as seaweeds.2) Brown Algae: contain chlorophyll a and c and a brown pigment called fucoxanthin, largest and most complex algae, found in shallow, cool, costal water."

Heterotrophic nutrition!Plants and animals do not obtain food by the same processes. Plants and some bacteria have the green pigment chlorophyll to help synthesize food, while animals, fungi and other bacteria depend on other organisms for food. ADVERTISEMENTS: Based on this, there are two main modes of nutrition: autotrophic and heterotrophic.1. Autotrophic nutrition: The term ‘autotroph’ is derived from two Greek words—autos (self) and trophe (nutrition). In autotrophic nutrition, an organism makes its own food from simple raw materials. Photosynthesis: Green plants, which are autotrophic, synthesize food through the process of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is a process by which green plants, having chlorophyll, synthesize the simple sugar (glucose) from the simple raw materials water and carbon dioxide using the energy of sunlight. Oxygen is released in this process."

Protozoa are the oldest known group of heterotrophic life that consume and transform complex food particles into energy. Although protozoans are only made up of a single cell, these organisms manage to perform all the basic tasks of life. The protozoa are divided into four major groups: the ciliates, the flagellates, the heliozoans, and the amoebas. Morphology (General)Ciliates: Ciliophora Structure in this group is fairly diverse, but almost all species retain a few basic characters that help to identify them as ciliates. The first character is the presence of cilia on at least one developmental stage of the organism.

No one even knows how many species there are, though estimates range between 65,000 to 200,000. All protists are eukaryotes, complex cells with nuclear membranes and organelles like mitochondria and chloroplasts. They can be either unicellular or multicellular, and in this group we find the first inkling of what is to come in evolutionary history, the union of eukaryotic cells into a colonial organism, where various cell types perform certain tasks, communicate with one another, and together function like a multicellular organism. Two Major Groups of Protists:1. Some protists are autotrophs , a photosynthetic group of phyla referred to as the algae. Autotrophs manufacture their own energy by photosynthesis or chemosynthesis. Algae use various combinations of the major chlorophyll pigments, chlorophyll a, b, and c, mixed with a wide array of other pigments that give some of them very distinctive colors.2. Some protists are heterotrophs , a group of phyla called the protozoa. Heterotrophs get their energy by consuming other organisms."

For biologists, doing this with all of the organisms there are on the earth, it makes it easier to study them!There are many different ways to group organisms.3 Early systems of classification Aristotle: plant or animal Then animals were further classified based on habitat and physical characteristics. Plants were further classified by size and structure, trees, shrubs This system did NOT take into account the changes and evolutionary history of the organisms.4 New systems of classification In the 18th century Carolus Linnaeus developed Taxonomy A branch of biology concerned with naming, identifying and classifying species based on morphological and behavioral similarities and differences. Linnaeus gave each organism 2 names A genus and a species name and called this binomial nomenclature.5 Taxonomy A systematic method of classifying plants and animals. Classification of organisms based on degrees of similarity representing evolutionary (phylogenetic) relatedness.6 Scientific Names Binomial nomenclature (Linnaeus)A 2 name system so that not two organisms will ever have the same name. The genus name is combined with a second name to make the species name unique. For example: humans Genus Homo Species Homo sapiens7 Why 2 names? The name are Latin ( the language of science)The first is the genus The second is the epithet or specific identifying name. They are both needed to identify the organism. Common names can vary but scientific are universal."

The Greek meaning describes this microbe as the Sea God Proteus that has an ever changing shape. Its ability to change shape is from the pseudopodia, which are common in eukaryotic microbes. The pseudopodia grants the microbe an ability to extend and contract into any possible shape. This extending and contracting is from the reversible assembly of actin sub-unites into microfilaments. Contraction is caused by the filaments near the end of the cell interacting with myosin. And the extension is caused by the actin reassembling itself back into its body. This is how the Amoeba proteus moves around. [ 2]Other than its pseudopodia, the Amoeba proteus can be described as unicellular, colorless, or transparent."

Being microscopic, they both have many similarities, but it is very important to understand the differences in functions and other characteristics between them. The modes of lives and many other important distinctions are discussed in the text and the main differences between amoeba and paramecium are compared. Amoeba Amoeba is one of the well taught unicellular protozoans. Amoeba is the generic name, and one of amoeba’s main characteristics is the lack of a particular shape for the body or the cell. This shapeless creature can change the density of its body contents so that the shape varies accordingly. The entire cell contents are covered with the cell membrane or plasma membrane. Additionally, each cell organelle is covered with the cell membrane. At the anterior end of the cell, amoeba can form a tubular pseudopod by controlling the density of the cytoplasm. In addition, there are few secondary pseudopods branching from the main one."

However, recent genetic studies suggest eukaryotes diverged from prokaryotes closer to 2 billion years ago. Fossils do not yet agree with this date. The old Kingdom Protista, as I learned it long ago, thus contains some living groups that might serve as possible models for the early eukaryotes. This taxonomic kingdom has been broken into many new kingdoms, reflecting new studies and techniques that help elucidate the true phylogenetic sequence of life on Earth. Protists exhibit a great deal of variation in their life histories (life cycles). They exhibit an alternation between diploid and haploid phases that is similar to the alternation of generations found in plants. Protist life cycles vary from diploid dominant, to haploid dominant.

All protozoans are eukaryotes and therefore possess a “true,” or membrane-bound, nucleus. They also are nonfilamentous (in contrast to organisms such as molds, a group of fungi, which have filaments called hyphae) and are confined to moist or aquatic habitats, being ubiquitous in such environments worldwide, from the South Pole to the North Pole. Many are symbionts of other organisms, and some species are parasites. Dinoflagellate Noctiluca scintillans (magnified). Douglas P. Wilson Modern ultrastructural, biochemical, and genetic evidence has rendered the term protozoan highly problematic. For example, protozoan historically referred to a protist that has animal-like traits, such as the ability to move through water as though “swimming” like an animal. Protozoans traditionally were thought to be the progenitors of modern animals, but contemporary evidence has revealed that this is not the case for most protozoans. In fact, modern science has shown that the protozoans represent a very complicated grouping of organisms that do not necessarily share a common evolutionary history. This unrelated, or paraphyletic, nature of the protozoans has caused scientists to abandon the term protozoan in formal classification schemes."

February 19, 2014 , rachita , Leave a comment Amoebas are the first unicellular organisms to walk, rather crawl this earth and are the simplest unicellular organisms. Organisms are generally classified into groups based on their physical appearance, number of cells, types of reproduction they undergo. The presence or absence of a nucleus in the cell differentiates them into prokaryotes or eukaryotes. Amoebas are shapeless organisms and are made up of only one cell as their body. They have two cell walls, one outer cell wall and an inner cell wall. They feed by phagocytosis which is why they are called as heterotrophic. Amoeba feed on planktons and diatoms present in water. As amoebas have no fixed shape they usually form a pseudopodia (false arm like structure required to grab the food) which pulls the prey inwards towards the body of the amoeba making it easier to ingest food. When food enters the amoeba, it digests the food particle with the help of certain enzymes and uses up the important nutritive portion whereas the waste products are expelled out through the cell wall of the amoeba."

Body: Most members of the amphipod species have flat bodies with large Eyes: compound eyes on the sides of their heads The majority of amphipods utilize a defense mechanism known as a tail flip, wherein they use their abdomens to propel themselves away from a predator. Amphipods belong to an order comprised of over 7,000 species, their habitats, characteristics and feeding habits vary. How Did I Get Amphipods? These tiny pests may enter homes after heavy rainfall. An amphipod requires a specific amount of moisture to live and too much or too little can be fatal. When outdoor environments become too wet, the pests often move inside seeking drier conditions. These creatures are not insects, but are crustaceans and go by their common name “yard shrimp” since their appearance is very shrimp-like. When disturbed in their natural habitat, seeing them jump around may remind someone of fleas or springtails."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search This is a list of dinosaurs whose remains have been recovered from North America. North America has a rich dinosaur fossil record with great diversity of dinosaurs. The earliest record of dinosaurs in North America comes from rare, unidentified (possibly theropod) footprints and teeth in the Middle-Late Triassic Pekin Formation of North Carolina. [ 1] Later in the Triassic period, dinosaurs left more recognizable remains, and could thus be identified as specific genera. Examples of later Triassic North American dinosaur genera include Coelophysis, Chindesaurus, Gojirasaurus, and Tawa. Fossils of Tawa have also been found in South America, which has important indications about paleogeography. During the Early Jurassic Period, dinosaurs such as Dilophosaurus, Anchisaurus, Megapnosaurus (formerly known as Syntarsus ), and the early thyreophoran Scutellosaurus lived in North America. The latter is believed to have been the ancestor of all stegosaurs and ankylosaurs. The Middle Jurassic is the only poorly represented time period in North America, although several Middle Jurassic localities are known from Mexico. Footprints, eggshells, teeth, and fragments of bone representing theropods, sauropods, and ornithopods have been found, but none of them are diagnostic to the genus level."

"text": "Coral reefs Coral diversity (PLo S, Wikipedia)Known for their extremely high biodiversity, coral reefs are formed by living stony coral polyps and coralline red and green algae. Over thousands of years, a limestone structure builds up in warm, clear tropical or subtropical water. It is estimated that at least 100,000 marine animal species from almost every phylum live on tropical reefs, including 1,500 kinds of stony coral. Coral reefs are found in shallow water where sea surface temperatures range from 68° F to 97° F. More than 90 percent of the world’s coral reefs occur in the Indo-West Pacific biogeographic region. Reef systems also can be found in the West Atlantic, East Atlantic, and East Pacific oceans between 30° N and 30° S. Most reef species are endemic to the region in which they are found. Coral reefs have existed for some 100 million years, but most living reefs originated or renewed their growth at the end of the Pleistocene (about 10,000 years ago), when sea levels rose in response to melting continental ice sheets. Three basic forms develop: Fringing reefs build out from rocky coasts. Barrier reefs have lagoons lying between them and the coast. Growth occurs on the outer (seaward) edge. Great Barrier Reef, stretching for 1,400 miles off the eastern coast of Australia, is the world’s largest."

Introduction One of the most common graphs in science plots one measurement variable on the x (horizontal) axis vs. another on the y (vertical) axis. For example, here are two graphs. For the first, I dusted off the elliptical machine in our basement and measured my pulse after one minute of ellipticizing at various speeds: Speed, kph Pulse, bpm0 571.6 693.1 784 805 856 876.9 907.7 928.7 9712.4 10815.3 119Graph of my pulse rate vs. speed on an elliptical exercise machine. For the second graph, I dusted off some data from Mc Donald (1989): I collected the amphipod crustacean Platorchestia platensis on a beach near Stony Brook, Long Island, in April, 1987, removed and counted the number of eggs each female was carrying, then freeze-dried and weighed the mothers: Weight, mg Eggs5.38 297.36 236.13 224.75 208.10 258.62 256.30 177.44 247.26 207.17 277.78 246.23 215.42 227.87 225.25 237.37 358.01 274.92 237.03 256.45 245.06 196.72 217.00 209.39 336.49 176.34 216.16 255.74 22Graph of number of eggs vs. dry weight in the amphipod Platorchestia platensis. There are three things you can do with this kind of data. One is a hypothesis test, to see if there is an association between the two variables; in other words, as the X variable goes up, does the Y variable tend to change (up or down). For the exercise data, you'd want to know whether pulse rate was significantly higher with higher speeds. The P value is 1.3×10 −8, but the relationship is so obvious from the graph, and so biologically unsurprising (of course my pulse rate goes up when I exercise harder! ), that the hypothesis test wouldn't be a very interesting part of the analysis."

Small crustaceans that live in the pitch-black waters of the trench, captured by a robotic submarine, were contaminated with 50 times more toxic chemicals than crabs that survive in heavily polluted rivers in China. “We still think of the deep ocean as being this remote and pristine realm, safe from human impact, but our research shows that, sadly, this could not be further from the truth,” said Alan Jamieson of Newcastle University in the UK, who led the research.

Jamieson’s team identified two key types of severely toxic industrial chemicals that were banned in the late 1970s, but do not break down in the environment, known as persistent organic pollutants (POPs). These chemicals have previously been found at high levels in Inuit people in the Canadian Arctic and in killer whales and dolphins in western Europe. The research, published in the journal Nature Ecology and Evolution, suggests that the POPs infiltrate the deepest parts of the oceans as dead animals and particles of plastic fall downwards. POPs accumulate in fat and are therefore concentrated in creatures up the food chain. They are also water-repellent and so stick to plastic waste."

"text": "\"CTENOPHORESCtenophores, or comb jellies, are the common names for animals in the Phylum Ctenophora. In American English, the name is pronounced with a silent \"\"c\"\", as \"\"teen-o-four\"\" or \"\"ten-o-four\"\". The preliminary \"\"c\"\" is pronounced in most European languages (as a syllable \"\"ka\"\"). Ctenophores are characterized by eight rows of cilia, which are used for locomotion. The cilia in each row are arranged to form a stack of combs, also called comb plates, or ctenes; thus the name ctenophore comes from the Greek, meaning \"\"comb bearer\"\". [ The more complete derivation, provided by H. Foundalis and T. Christopoulos, is that \"\"ctena\"\" means comb in ancient Greek (in Modern Greek, too: \"\"ktena\"\"), and \"\"phora\"\" is a morphological ending that comes from the Greek verb \"\"pherein\"\", to bear (Modern Greek: \"\"phero\"\"). ] Ctenophores are fairly simple animals that live only in marine waters; they can be found in most marine habitats, from polar to tropical, inshore to offshore, and from near the surface to the very deep ocean. There are probably about 100-150 species of ctenophores throughout the world's ocean, although most of these are poorly known. I have compiled a list of all valid scientific names for the Phylum Ctenophora, meant to be useful for ctenophore biologists, but which has links to various images of ctenophores on the web that others may also find interesting. The best-known ctenophores are those that occur near-shore."

Animal Life, General Knowledge When it comes to the diet of a fish, they eat a large variety of things; some of them are omnivores that feed on marine animals including smaller fish, worms and crustaceans. Some kinds of fish eat small organisms and plant matter, whereas others are carnivorous that eat other fish. The fish diet is classified depending on their habits of feeding. Fish Diet The fish dietary habits differ from one species to another, so it’s not easy to come up with a comprehensive marine animals and plants’ list which they use to feed. As some species are particularly carnivorous or herbivorous in nature that feed on either aquatic animals or plants, others are naturally omnivorous that feed on both animals and plants. The algae shape up the diet for omnivorous as well as for herbivorous fish. Omnivorous fish consume microalgae together with crustaceans for that they ought to go hunting. Sea Grass and Algae: The fish which feed on sea grass and algae are entirely herbivorous. Detritus and Algae: fish released solid waste material, coral slime and organic matter that gets accrued on the sea floor over time constitutes the detritus."

[ 1] All species in the genus are closely related, and it is difficult to identify Aurelia medusae without genetic sampling; most of what follows applies equally to all species of the genus. The most common method used to identify the species consists of selecting a jellyfish from a harbour using a device, usually a drinking glass and then photographing the subject. This means that they can be released in to the harbour shortly afterwards and return to their natural habitat. The jellyfish is translucent, usually about 25–40 cm (10–16 in) in diameter, and can be recognized by its four horseshoe-shaped gonads, easily seen through the top of the bell. It feeds by collecting medusae, plankton, and mollusks with its tentacles, and bringing them into its body for digestion. It is capable of only limited motion, and drifts with the current, even when swimming.

Unlike terrestrial forests and prairies whose structure is formed by plants, it is animals (coral polyps) that actually form the structural foundation of coral reef ecosystems - as well as being its dominant inhabitants. Two major groups of animals inhabit coral reefs: animals with backbones (called vertebrates) and those without these structures (called invertebrates ). Vertebrate Coral Reef Animals Among vertebrate animals, only a relative few groups contain species that are regularly found within coral reef communities. These are: Fishes Sea Snakes Sea Turtles Dugongs and Manatees Of these, it is only the fishes that are normally present in great numbers or variety. Because of their diversity and importance to ecosystem function we devote an entire page to coral reef fishes elsewhere on our website, and do not discuss them further here. Sea Snakes There are between 55-65 recognized species of sea snakes, but of these only a relative few are commonly found in coral reef areas. Sea snake © Fotolia.com Sea snakes have evolved from terrestrial snakes, and like all reptiles are air breathers. Specialized adaptations for aquatic life include paddle-like tails and laterally compressed bodies, both of which enhance swimming ability.

Alan Jamieson, Author provided Email Twitter 235Facebook 665Linked In Print The ocean is deep. In fact, most of it is deep. Officially anything deeper than just 200 metres is considered the “deep sea”, but the average depth of the entire ocean is about 3.5km and the deepest point – the Challenger Deep in the Mariana Trench, in the western Pacific – is a little short of 11km down. That means that most of the living space on Earth is in the deep sea. We scientists like to categorise things and the ocean depths are no exception. Depths from the surface to 0.2km is known as the “littoral zone”, from 0.2km to 3km, the “bathyal zone”, and from 3km to 6km, the “abyssal zone”. Anything deeper than that is the “hadal zone”."

At its deepest the ocean reaches roughly 11,000 meters, so there is plenty of space.

We’ve already covered the basics of bacon, that most venerable of proteins. Let’s take our next culinary journey into the world of peppers. Whether you’re a novice in the kitchen or a veritable iron chef, a sound knowledge of the basic varieties of peppers will pay dividends in all your culinary adventures. With a seemingly endless variety of peppers available to the average consumer, making a call on which peppers to use can sometimes be a daunting task, leaving many budding chefs feeling like there are only two safe options: jalapenos for spicy, bell peppers for not spicy. While this is a safe method, there are many other wonderful peppers out there besides the bell and the jalapeno…and what man wants to play it safe anyways? Let’s get a little adventurous, shall we? Before you even begin to learn about the different types of peppers, you have to familiarize yourself with the fundamentals of this fiery fruit. Peppers, often known for their heat, or spiciness, are ranked according to the Scoville Scale. The Scoville Scale, created by Wilbur Scoville in the early 20 th century, measures the amount of capsaicin in a given species of pepper."

Ancho Chile..................................................................................................... Pasilla de Oaxaca Chile Ancho peppers and chipotles in adobo are available Smoking peppers was an early form of food preservation that originated in Mesoamerica, centuries before the rise of the Aztecs. Because the thick flesh of some types of peppers would not dry properly in the sun, they adapted a smoke-drying process they used to preserve meat. Chipotle Chile Pronounced \"\"chi-POHT-lay\"\" Chipotle peppers are indigenous to Mexico and they've become almost synonymous in the US with our fairly recent infatuation with “chiles”. Chile peppers are most often recognized for their spicy hotness, but when used in correct amounts, they can also be a bit mild while adding layers of subtle flavor to dishes. Chipotle chiles are actually completely ripened jalapenos that are then smoke dried. For each pound of dried Chipotles it started out as 10 pounds of fresh jalapeno peppers. The end result is a dark brown to black colored, wrinkled pepper that has a smoky, somewhat sweet chocolaty aroma and flavor. Chipotle chile peppers are considered a medium heat chile and come it at 5,000 - 10,000 SHU (Scoville Heat Units). For a more subtle heat you can remove the seeds and stems prior to using. Originally Chipotle chiles were most commonly used to flavor salsas, stews and soups but now this popular flavor has found its way into everything from fried chicken to chips."

If you want the flavor without the mouth-scorching fire, remove the seeds and interior ribs from a chile before cooking it. It's also a good idea to have dairy products, such as milk or yogurt, on hand—they contain casein, which helps neutralize capsaicin, the chemical that gives chiles their heat.

A good ancho (which means wide), about 4 1/2 inches long and 3 inches wide, has flexible, reddish brown wrinkled skin that still has some shine. Its heat ranges from almost mild to hot. As it dries out, the color becomes increasingly dark and more difficult to distinguish from that of the mulato. To accurately identify the ancho, slit it open and hold it up to the light: it should be a reddish color; the mulato, a brownish color . The ancho is decidedly fruitier and sharper than the mulato. The ancho is most commonly used lightly toasted and soaked, or just soaked, and then ground smooth with other ingredients for cooked sauces. It can be lightly pickled or rehydrated and stuffed. Cascabel is a small, round chile, about 1 inch long and 1 1/4 inches in diameter."

"text": "Scoville Heat Units are used to specify of the hotness of food, specifically chili peppers. In 1912, Wilbur Scoville devised a system to determine how hot foods are, using a panel of tasters to provide heat scores for different peppers. Although Wilbur's name is still used for the scale, the current method is much more scientific. The sensation of heat that is experienced from eating certain peppers is attributable to a chemical called capsaicin. The more capsaicin present in a pepper, the hotter it will seem. Although the Scoville scale spans from 0 to 16 million, the American Spice Traders Association (ASTA) set the standard for conversion from ppm (parts per million) of capsaicin to Scoville Heat Units as 1:15. This means that a sweet bell pepper has a score of 0 because there is no capsaicin present, and pure capsaicin crystals have 15 to 16 million units. Ad As is evident from the table below, Scoville scores vary widely from one species to the next. The hottest pepper ever grown is the Naga Jolokia from Assam, India, which has a Scoville score of 855,000. There are also variations of heat from one pepper to the next within the same species; growing conditions, soil, and other factors have an affect on the amount of capsaicin within a given pepper."

One of my favorite uses for poblanos is to saute with onions and mushrooms, then pile them high on top of a grilled steak. Poblano peppers are also called Ancho peppers and originate from Mexico. Planting & Caring for Poblano Peppers Poblano seeds are slow to get going, so sow the seeds about 8-12 weeks before the last frost date. Sow several seeds ¼” deep in 2-3″ earth-friendly containers such as peat pots filled with lightly moistened seed starting mix. Water well and place the pots in a well-lighted, warm area, 80° F – 85° F. To prevent the seedlings from damping off, keep the soil damp but not wet, and provide good air circulation around the plants. Feed the seedlings with a good organic fertilizer every three weeks after they have established. When seedlings are about two inches tall, thin to one plant per pot by cutting out the smaller ones."

They are the broad, flat, heart-shaped, brownish-black wrinkled, dried version of the Poblano peppers. The Anchos are significantly hotter and more flavorful than the less ripe, green poblano. Ancho chilese ranges in flavor going from mild to zesty. They are mostly used in Mexico as they originate from the Puebla Region, and Central Valley of Mexico. Ancho chiles are sometimes mislabeled as pasillas which you can use to substitute them. The Ancho Chiles are used in mole, red chili and tamales. Tips: In order for the Ancho chiles to last for up to a year, store in airtight container or freezer. To use in most recipes, before using make sure to soak the chiles in hot water for 30 minutes to hydrate."

"text": "Anchovy Health Benefits: Anchovies like sardines are high in heart friendly polyunsaturated fatty acids because it can help lower cholesterol level and reduce the risk of heart disease. Anchovies are rich in healthy protein that is valuable for children and seniors. Anchovies are also a good source of essential vitamins (vitamin E and D) and minerals (calcium and selenium). Small fish like anchovies and sardines are better than bigger fishes because they contain less heavy metal such as mercury, lead, cadmium and arsenic and environmental toxins. This is because smaller fish have a shorter life cycle so there is less possibility of them accumulating impurities. How to prepare Anchovies: When using whole canned anchovies, rinse it first gently in cold water. Remove the meat from the bones. The skin is edible and rarely worth the trouble to remove. If you want to remove some of the salt from the anchovies, soak it in cold water for 30 minutes. Then drain in colander and allow to dry before using."

Anchovies, which is also known as Netholi / Kozhuva / Chooda / Podi meen is a small fish which is a cheap source of protein and is popular in Kerala. This fish's bone / meen mull is so soft, that we can even eat it along with its meat. Whenever I buy anchovies, I used to make peera pattichathu and also anchovies fry with it. In this recipe, you can even use raw mango pieces instead of kudampuli. Here comes my recipe.... Ingredients Anchovies / Netholi ~ 1/2 kg Grated cococnut ~ 1 cup Ginger ~ a medium sized piece ( peeled and cut into cubes )Green chillies ~ 5-6 nos ( Small sized )Curry leaves ~ 2 stems Shallots / Kochu ulli ~ 4-5 nos Red chilli powder ~ 2 tsp Turmeric powder ~ 1/2 tsp Kurumulaku / Peppercorns ~ 3/4 tsp Crystal salt / Kalluppu ~ 1 tsp Kudampuli / Fish tamarind ~ 3 pieces Salt to taste Method First cut and clean the fish and then again clean it by adding some crystal salt / Kalluppu / Regular salt and then wash it nicely by changing the water 2-3 times and then allow it to drain. Then wash and soak kodampuli in 1/2 cup of water for about 15-20 minutes. Meanwhile using a mortar and pestle crush grated coconut, ginger, green chillies, curry leaves, shallots, red chilli powder, turmeric powder and peppercorns. If you dont have a mortar and pestle then you can use the small jar of mixer grinder and just grind it for just 2-3 pulses by just adding 1 tbsp of water, but do make sure to mix it after each pulse. Then mix fish with crushed coconut mixture, salt and 1 stem curry leaves with your hands and then add soaked kudampuli and 1/2 cup of water and keep it in a medium flame till the it starts to boil."

The ingredients are allowed to mature for 18 months before being blended and bottled in Worcester, where the exact recipe is kept a secret. Lea and Perrins devised the recipe in the 1830s, however it was not to their liking and was set aside and forgotten about. It was not until the barrels were rediscovered many months later that the taste had mellowed into what is now known as Worcestershire sauce. A high court decided on 26 July 1876 that Lea & Perrins did not have the rights to the term Worcestershire sauce, and so the name is not trademarked. Lea & Perrins claims to be The Original Worcestershire sauce, [4] but other brands offer similar recipes. Some may be vegetarian or vegan, and may add other spices. Worcestershire sauce is complex and unique in its flavour and aroma, and frequently used to enhance some food and drink recipes. For example, it is often an ingredient in Welsh rarebit, Caesar salad, Oysters Kirkpatrick, deviled eggs, and sometimes an ingredient in chili con carne, beef stew or other beef dishes."

In addition, they are versatile and available in several different forms, making it easy to incorporate flaxseed into many different recipes.

Omega-3s are incorporated into nerve cell membranes in the brain and the retina of the eye. Your child's body cannot produce these fatty acids so they must be obtained from her diet. In addition to cold-water fish, nut oils including flaxseed are sources of omega-3 fatty acids. Ground flaxseed provides alpha-linolenic acid or ALA, a building block for omega-3 fatty acids.

Chronicle Photo by Thor Swift Your restaurant lunch arrives and for once the Caesar salad is perfect. Crisp hearts of romaine, faintly sweet with a bitter edge; tangy lemon; a shower of Parmesan; and that salty and intensely savory background note of anchovy. Sweet, sour, salty, bitter -- all four primary tastes are in impeccable balance. But according to a growing number of chefs and scientists, it's a fifth taste -- the almost indescribable savoriness of anchovy and aged cheese -- that makes Caesar salad and many other dishes taste so good. Increasingly, chefs, food professionals and scientists are acknowledging the existence and impact of umami, that hard-to-define fifth taste. Earlier this year, neuroscientists at the University of Miami reported finding the taste-bud receptors for umami, effectively validating its existence and the human ability to taste it. For some chefs, a growing awareness of umami is changing the way they approach cooking, and at least one wine expert says the \"\"fifth taste\"\" has dramatic implications for wine and food pairing.

Hirsch If anchovies gross you out, know this: Compared to what people ate before there were anchovies, they’re practically cake and ice cream. Because until about the 16th century there were no anchovies as we know them today. That is, small silvery fish that are boned, salt-cured and packed in oil. Instead, there was garum -- the juice of salted and fermented fish guts. Garum lost favor about 500 years ago when people learned how to make anchovies. Can’t imagine why. Anchovies, however, are not a singular fish. Most cuisines around the world have their own “anchovy,” most of which tend to be variants of one variety of fish, a relative of the herring.

It has also been promoted as an antiaging skin care nutrient. This growing interest in DMAE has many wondering how to get more of it naturally in their diet. Only a few foods contain it, however. Knowing which foods, and adding them to a well-balanced diet, can help you reap the benefits of this potentially valuable nutrient. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load The Importance of DMAEDMAE, or 2-dimethylaminoethanol, is a substance found naturally in the brain in small amounts. It is hypothesized to be a precursor to acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter found throughout the nervous system. Acetylcholine is involved in proper nerve function as well as learning and memory in the brain. Therefore, consuming DMAE may generate increased amounts of acetylcholine in the brain, thus potentially leading to improved cognitive function. DMAE has most recently been advertised as a way to reduce wrinkles and sagging skin."

On the contrary, with the right ingredients, a vegan diet can be as sumptuous as any other.

This list is in no way complete, but it's a fantastic place to start. A word to the wise: When first transitioning to a vegan diet, you may feel the need to add fake animal products to your meal plan. That’s fine if it helps you step away from the cows; but in general many of these items are highly processed — glorified vegan junk food –—and you may be better off without them.

What Are the Health Benefits of Rice Noodles? Anchovies pack big flavor for such small fish. They’re so strong that only a small amount of anchovy is needed to add flavor to sauces, salad dressings, pasta and pizza. That same small amount also delivers health benefits in the form of essential fatty acids, protein and other nutrients. Basics When anchovies are used in sauces and dressings, they impart a salty rather than fishy flavor. Four anchovy fillets are enough to season about 1 cup of Caesar salad dressing, and five or six fillets suffice for enough clam sauce to serve four. Nutritional values are for 20 grams of fresh anchovies or about five fillets."

Bold, briny, and powerfully salty, they tend to fall into the same love-it-or-hate-it category as olives and anchovies. But, while saltiness may be their high note, capers—like olives and anchovies, for that matter—bring exceptional depth and character to cooked and raw dishes alike. \"\" They're vegetal, they're intense. You can't substitute salt in a recipe that calls for capers,\"\" says cookbook author Cathy Barrow. A little sour, a little floral, \"\"they're like tiny, tiny pickles,\"\" she adds. In fact, given their exceptionally small size, I'd wager that capers have one of the highest flavor-to-size ratios in your pantry. Provided you have them, of course—and you really should.

"text": "Food From Italy, the Truth About Pasta; The Italians know that less is more: a call for a return to basics By NANCY HARMON JENKINS SEPT. 17, 1997Americans are strictly bush-leaguers when it comes to pasta, consuming about 26 pounds per capita each year. Italians, it almost goes without saying, are the world champions, averaging 60 pounds of pasta a year for every man, woman and child in the country. Which works out to five pounds a month. Or by my informal reckoning, at least one large plate of well-sauced and seasoned pasta six out of seven days a week. And most of that pasta comes from a box. A persistent notion in American kitchens is that pasta, to be good, must be freshly made by hand, preferably by a venerable grandmother wielding a rolling pin. Second best is pasta cranked from a machine of the kind that tends to gather dust in American kitchens, and with good reason: except in skilled hands, the pasta that exudes from it is seldom very good. Finally, there's the kind of ready-made, fresh pasta available in American shops -- an overworked, extruded paste that too often turns to goo in the cooking water. And only after all that comes pasta secca, pasta in a box."

Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Protein Foods Beans, yogurt and fish are among the better sources of potassium. A cup of adzuki beans provides 35 percent of the daily value for potassium; white beans have 29 percent of the DV per cup; and lima beans or soy beans provide 28 percent of the DV per cup. Other beans average 15 to 20 percent of the DV per cup. Plain nonfat yogurt contains 18 percent of the DV per cup, and the same amount of plain whole yogurt has 11 percent of the DV. Fish average approximately 10 percent of the DV for potassium per 3-ounce serving, although anchovies, yellowfin tuna, ling cod and salmon are a bit higher in potassium, with 12 to 15 percent of the DV per serving. High-Potassium Vegetables Cooked swiss chard, spinach, hubbard squash and acorn squash each has more than 20 percent of the DV for potassium per cup. An average baked potato with skin will give you about 26 percent of the DV, and sweet potatoes provide 15 percent of the DV each. Although they aren't quite as high in potassium, sliced white mushrooms are another good vegetable choice, with 12 percent of the DV per cup."

And a respected food writer pointed out that pumpkin was obligatory in Soupe au Pistou. I, too, know that folks will sometimes call something hot ‘chocolate’ even though it was made with cocoa powder instead of chocolate. 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."

"text": "Health Diets & Nutrition Plans Should You Try a Pescatarian Diet? Should You Try a Pescatarian Diet?749 10 1011A pescatarian diet is one that includes fish and seafood, but doesn’t include certain other animal products, especially meat. While there are literally dozens of different styles of meat-less diets, some pescatarians also eat eggs and dairy products, so each person’s pescatarian preferences can be different. Pescatarian-based diets have been around for thousands of years. Populations living in Japan, other parts of Asia and Mediterranean countries like Greece have relied heavily on fish for protein and nutrient intake for generations. Fish and seafood are some of the healthiest sources of dietary protein and fatty acids in the world. Benefit-packed salmon and nutritious sardines, for example, are two particularly nutrient-dense foods packed with high levels of omega-3 fatty acids, amino acids (protein), vitamin D as well as vitamin A. Other types of fish and seafood provide similar benefits along with B vitamins and minerals like potassium, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium and selenium. How healthy are pescatarian diets? Although meat-less, vegetarian and vegan-type diets can vary widely, many people who base the bulk of their food intake around plant foods are very healthy. While some plant-based eaters might exclude all animal products (vegans), others might choose to include fish."

The famed sardine fishing in California's Cannery Row during the first half of the 20th century fed soldiers and foreign workers during the Depression. The species' numbers decreased dramatically and restrictions prevented large-scale commercial fishing of sardines until the past few decades when the numbers began to climb once again. Today, the fish is experiencing a resurgence in restaurants and among health food proponents. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Nutritional Content The sardine is a rich source of nutrients. One can of sardines contains 351 mg of calcium, 2.7 mg of iron, 451 mg of phosphorus, 365 mg of potassium, 49 mcg of selenium and 178 IU of vitamin D. The fish is low in calories relative to the abundant nutrition it contains; one can provides 191 calories. Omega-3 Fatty Acid Source A can of sardines contains 840 mg of omega-3 fatty acids. A dose of approximately 500 mg daily confers beneficial effects. According to the American Heart Association, consuming sardines reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease. The fish's omega-3 fatty acid content reduces blood cholesterol levels, lowers risk for atherosclerosis and decreases blood pressure."

Thalheimer, RD, LDNToday's Dietitian Vol. 17 No. 4 P. 32Adding fish and seafood to a vegetarian eating plan can create the healthful diet clients crave. Pesce, the Italian word for fish, is being associated with people who add aquatic animals to a vegetarian diet. Pescetarians (sometimes called pesco-vegetarians) eat freshwater and saltwater fish and shellfish in addition to the fruits, vegetables, grains, legumes, eggs, and dairy vegetarians typically consume. While it isn't known how many people follow a pescetarian eating pattern, interest in the impact this diet has on its followers appears to be rising. The combination of the known benefits of a vegetarian lifestyle with the proven health effects of omega-3-fatty-acid-rich fish makes pescetarianism a potentially powerful ally in the interplay between nutrition and long-term health. Who Are Pescetarians? \"\" Pescetarians are a diverse group,\"\" says Debra King, MS, RDN, LD, FAND, CEO of Crown Consulting and Web editor for Vegetarian Nutrition. \"\" In my experience, they're usually very health-conscious individuals."

Let’s start this column with definitions that will help you get a handle on nomenclature. True bulbs contain their leaves and flowering parts inside. These include tulips, daffodils, and hyacinths. Corms carry their leaf parts on the outside to support interior bud development and include crocuses and gladiolas. Rhizomes like Canna lilies and iris form leaves and buds from a growing end or tip. Tubers, like potatoes, have “eyes” that develop roots, leaves, and flowers and include dahlias, anemones and ranunculus. For the purpose of brevity, I will group all of these together and call them bulbs. From last week’s column, you learned about tender bulbs that are not winter hardy in our Zone 5."

They are perennials and, as their seed is rarely viable in Britain, they spread by means of underground roots. However, they do not advance their carpet quickly, and colonies of anemones can often be found in the same spot within a wood, century after century. Bradfield Wood in Suffolk has large carpets of wood anemones, and the fact that these woods have a history of traditional management reaching back to the 12th century illustrates the plant’s long association with ancient woodland. However, the appearance of wood anemones in parts of the uplands long-since denuded of their woodland suggests that the plant may have once been more widespread and not confined to woods. There are colonies in the Yorkshire Dales and on the limestone hills of Derbyshire. This apparent liking for light may explain its early – and short – flowering season."

But containers are a great way to garden, and we can also be using them to grow many perennials and perennial ornamental grasses. In fact, gardeners living east of the Mississippi will find the use of containers as a great way to expand their palette of growable perennials, especially xeric ones that would be unhappy in the ground because of excessive moisture and soggy freeze-thaw conditions in spring. Perennials that may seem impossible to grow in the ground become easily cultivated in pots. Perennials planted in containers can last for years if protected during winter months.

"text": "Perennials (To troubleshoot problems go to Common Problems of Annuals, Bulbs, Groundcovers, Perennials, and Vines)Perennials are plants that live year after year. This means the tops of the plants die back to the ground each fall with the first freeze. Every spring, new plant tops arise from the crown or roots, which persisted through the winter. Perennials are said to be hardy because they live through the winter. The most obvious advantage to growing perennials is that they do not have to be set out each year, although some must be replaced or divided every few years. Another advantage is that, with careful planning, a perennial flower bed will change colors as one type of plant finishes and another variety begins to bloom. Deadheading is not always necessary to keep them blooming, since perennials have a limited blooming period. However, they do require pruning and maintenance to keep them attractive. Their relatively short bloom period is a disadvantage to the long-season gardener, but combining them and using annuals will give a continuous show. Planting Times Plant late summer or fall-flowering perennials in the spring and spring-flowering perennials in late summer or early fall."

It's also pathetically easy, so if you've ever had problems propagating some of your favorite plants, this may be the way for you to go. It's best done during the plant's dormant season usually between November and February, and is such a straightforward process, you can do it in four steps. How's that for easy? At the end of the article we have listed many plants that do well with root cuttings, but if you're careful, test doing some plants that are not on the list and see how you do. Just keep in mind that some plants like roses and fruit trees are grafted, so if you take root cuttings you will be propagating the root stock, and not the grafted variety that you enjoy above the grafted root stock. Step 1 Carefully Uncover The Roots The best time to take root cuttings is when the plants are dormant which is usually between November and February. At this time, there is a large amount of stored energy in the roots, and there is less stress on the parent plant because they are not actively growing and in as much need of their root system. For Woody Plants 1. To take root cuttings from trees and shrubs, carefully remove dirt around the roots on one side of the plant."

If you have a problem in your neighborhood, it's probably a good idea to draw heavily from this list of perennials that are rarely browsed. If you can't live without certain plants that are candy to deer, you can plant them in an enclosed area, or use repellents in that bed, to try to minimize the damage. Although it's the curse of gardeners that we crave what we can't grow (folks in Florida long for Lilacs, New Englanders for Agapanthus), it is possible to create a lovely garden using Deer-Resistant Plants & Bulbs . It's a challenge, but not an impossibility. Deer-Resistant Plants & Bulbs tend to share certain characteristics: fuzzy or wooly leaves; pungent-scented foliage (Catmints, Mints, Lavenders, Agastache, Salvias, etc) and/or foul taste (even poisonous).

"text": "Planting Bulbs Depth The general rule of thumb for planting spring bulbs is to plant two to three times as deep as the bulbs is tall. This means most large bulbs like tulips or daffodils will be planted about 6 inches deep while smaller bulbs will be planted 3-4 inches deep. The depth of planting should be measured from the surface level of the soil to the shoulder of the bulb and the eyes or crowns of the perennials. Distance between plants is measured from the center of one plant to the center of the next. There are two basic methods of planting. One is to dig individual holes for each plant. This can be done with a garden trowel or one of the special hole-cutting tools called bulb planters. Dig the hole several inches deeper than the recommended planting depth and fill to base level with a mixture of loose soil and food for bulbs. Then place your plant in the hole and cover it with loose soil. Using your fingers, gently push the soil into position around the plant so there will be no air pockets where water can collect."

"text": "\"Wisdom teeth Anesthesia Optionsby Donna Pleis If your dentist recommends removing your wisdom teeth because they're decayed or aren't erupting correctly in your mouth, don't panic. As daunting as it sounds to have teeth extracted, this common process may not even be something you remember if you opt for wisdom teeth anesthesia – one area of sedation dentistry. What Is Sedation Dentistry? Fear or anxiety over dental treatment is common for most people, especially when facing surgical procedures. Sedation dentistry uses medications to relax normally uncomfortable patients, explains the Academy of General Dentistry (AAG), thereby helping to manage the discomfort these patients experience during dental treatment. In many instances, sedation keeps you somewhat conscious, but you may feel so calm and comfortable that you fall asleep on your own. And with deeper levels of anesthesia, you may not remember anything from the procedure once it's finished. Removing Wisdom Teeth Removing a tooth that's fully visible in the mouth is a fairly simple procedure; it involves numbing with a local anesthetic, and after a bit of work around the gum, the tooth is out. However, this is usually not the case with wisdom teeth. Located in the back of your mouth, most wisdom teeth don't have enough room to come in properly and are referred to as impacted."

"text": "\"\"\"Double Dip\"\" - endoscopy and colonoscopy at same time?bryan3536 Aug 05, 2008My GI recommended an upper endoscopy and colonoscopy to take a look at my recurring acid reflux and fairly regular (monthly) rectal bleeding (he suspects hemroidal in nature). He suggested that they be done in seperate procedures on two different days because, according to him, the preparation for the colonoscopy can make my upper tract appear raw, etc. I mentioned this to my good friend, a GI resident, and she said that these procedures are routinely done together and didn't think this would be an issue at all - she didn't know why my GI would make that recommendation. I'm pretty leery about getting put out, so if it's going to happen, I'd prefer it happen once - not twice. If there is no medical need for me to do this in two seperate procedures, I'd rather get it done all at once. So, my question is whether there is any reason why I can't have these procedures done together, i.e., is there any validity to the notion that the preparation for the colonoscopy can skew the results of my endoscopy? Many thanks!Answer Question Read 37 Responses Follow - 637 Responsesvalleygirl1436 Aug 05, 2008I have had both these procedures done, but not at the same time, ever. The preparation procedure to have the colonoscopy done is not pleasant. If you have never done this, it requires you drinking a gallon of fluid designed to 'clean you out' the day before the procedure. You don't eat anything, just drink this 'stuff'', and stay close to a bathroom."

Anesthesia is used to control pain during a surgical procedure and will help control your heart rate, blood flow and blood pressure. When administered, anesthesia will help relax you, block the pain, make you forgetful and/or make you unconscious for the surgical procedure.“ U. S. Army Graduate Program in Anesthesia ” ( CC BY 2.0 ) by Army Medicine How much does anesthesia cost? On average, the cost of anesthesia without any sort of insurance will vary anywhere from as little as $200 if a local anesthesia is administered at a doctor’s office for a simple procedure to as much as $3,500 for a complex surgery at a regional hospital. The costs, in the end, will depend on where you live, the hospital/doctor’s office and the procedure you undergo. To put things in perspective, anesthesia will be charged based on the “units” required, and each unit will last for about 15 minutes. Units can vary anywhere from $50 to $70.

The Ramsay Sedation Scale is divided into two parts: levels one through three monitor waking levels, and levels four through six monitor sleeping levels. Of the waking levels, level one represents the most awake, with patients displaying a combination of being restless, anxious and agitated. Level two patients are more peaceful, patient and cooperative. Level three patients are the least responsive while still retaining consciousness, responding only to commands. Of the sleeping levels, level four represents the least asleep, with patients able to quickly respond to a light tap or loud noise. Level five patients respond sluggishly.

It also brought up some misconceptions as to how the various drug cocktails used to effect euthanasia actually work. It seems incredible to me that before this week I never thought to post on the mechanics of death in veterinary settings. I hope to rectify this lapse with an abbreviated (but hopefully relatively comprehensive) and clarifying post on this issue. The two injection method The currently favored method of euthanasia in veterinary private practice settings is that of the so-called “two injection method. ”In this approach an initial injection is given, either in the vein (IV) or in the muscle (IM), to achieve extreme sedation. A second injection is then administered IV to overdose the animal with an anesthetic drug. Both injections are considered “overdoses” of medications we normally use in veterinary practice for sedation, tranquilization and/or anesthesia, but not every veterinarian uses the same drugs."

The muscles controlled by the numbed nerves may also be weak until the medication wears off. This is a great option for patients who do not want to be sedated.

"text": "Surgery Preparation Diprivan Uses During Medical Care By Jennifer Whitlock, RN, MSN, FNUpdated January 06, 2018Share Pin Email Print Westend61/Getty Images Diprivan, or Propofol, is a short-acting sedative that is used primarily for the induction of general anesthesia and sedation in intensive care units. It is also used for minor procedures, such as dental work or a colonoscopy, that require monitored anesthesia care to keep the patient calm, pain-free and still. Diprivan is a powerful medication, but it has a very short half-life, meaning the drug wears off very quickly. Many sedatives linger in the body for hours or days, making Diprivan the primary drug used for short periods of sedation. Diprivan is packaged in a fat emulsion, giving it a thick, white, milk-like appearance. How Is Diprivan Given? Diprivan is given through an IV. It may be given once, known as a bolus, to provide sedation that lasts 5 to 10 minutes, or it may be given as an IV drip for ongoing sedation. It can be used for short-term sedation, or for the sickest patients in the ICU it may be used for weeks at a time during the healing process. Why Is Diprivan Given?"

"text": "Angle bisector constructions An angle bisector is a line that cuts an angle in half. It divides the angle into two congruent angles. To construct an angle bisector, you will need a compass and a ruler or straightedge. Here are the steps to constructing an angle bisector. Place the point of the compass at the vertex of the angle. Set the width of the compass to about half of one of the sides of the angle (the width actually doesn’t matter, as long as it does not change during the next couple of steps)Draw a small arc through each side of the angle. Remember to not change the width of the compass. Also without changing the width, place the point of the compass at the intersection of the arc and the side of the angle. Draw a new arc in the interior of the angle. Repeat this for the other side of the angle."

Definition: A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two sets of opposite sides parallel. Definitions need no further observations, as they are stated facts. A parallelogram has rotational symmetry when rotated 180º about its center. A parallelogram has no reflectional symmetry. Rotational symmetry will map These sides coincide after the rotation, so we can observe that AD = CB and AB = CD. The opposite sides are congruent. This rotation will also map ∠A onto ∠C and ∠B onto ∠D, showing the opposite angles congruent. If we draw the diagonals, intersecting at P, rotational symmetry will map Theses segments will coincide after the rotation, showing us that DP = BP and AP = CP, which implies congruent segments."

"text": "Angle Bisectors An angle bisector is a line or ray that divides an angle into two congruent angles. The two types of angle bisectors are interior and exterior. Some important points to remember about angle bisectors: The bisector of an angle consists of all points that are equidistant from the sides of the angle. The three angle bisectors of a triangle are concurrent and intersect at a point called the incenter. The angle bisector theorem states that if a ray or segment bisects an angle of a triangle then it divides the two segments on either side proportionally. Common proofs of the angle bisector theorem include using similar triangles, Ceva's Theorem, Side-Splitter Theorem, and the Alternate Interior Angle Theorem.

The Angora goat is named after Ankara, Turkey, which was historically known as Angora. They are very beautiful and mainly raised by the farmers for their hair production. They produce bright and very high quality hair. Their meat and milk production is not profitable enough like other goat breeds. Angora goats generally are of small sized, hardy, long-lived, requires minimal care and facilities and are relatively odor-free. This goat is available in almost all countries of the world. In 1554 a pair of Angora goat was imported to Europe by Charles V. Spanish Government imported this breed to their country in 1765. In 1785 France imported a large number of this goats."

It is sheared from the Angora Goat, spun into a yarn, woven into a cotton backing and custom hand dyed for the most luxurious animal friendly furs available in today's market. One of the oldest textile fibers in use today is Mohair. Mohair is one of the most soft, luxurious, durable and resilient animal fibers. The long silky hair of the Angora Goat is sheared twice a year and spun into a yarn. The hair has characteristics that are similar to wool except that it does not have the scales that can irritate the skin like wool can. It has smooth fibers which gives it luster and shine and the luxury feel like cashmere, angora and silk. The hair won't shrink and is easy to care for.

Mohair takes dye exceptionally well. Mohair is warm in winter as it has excellent insulating properties, while remaining cool in summer due to its moisture wicking properties. It is durable, naturally elastic, flame resistant and crease resistant. It is considered to be a luxury fiber, like cashmere, angora and silk, and is usually more expensive than most wool that is produced by sheep.

The word mohair is derived from the Arabic mukhayyar (“goat’s hair fabric”), which became mockaire in medieval times. Mohair is one of the oldest textile fibres, produced exclusively in Turkey for thousands of years and achieving importance in European textile manufacture during the 19th century. In the mid-1800s herds of common goats in southern Africa and the southwestern United States were upgraded by the importation of Angora sires. Angora goat. © R. T. Willbie/Animal Photography The fleece of the Angora goat grows in uniform locks. Annual growth averages about 8 to 12 inches (20 to 30 cm), and the animals are usually clipped twice yearly, each yielding about 5 pounds (2.25 kg) of fleece per clipping. Controlled breeding has eliminated most of the outer protective coat; only a small amount of the undesirable coarse guard hair remains. Fleece produced in the United States may be sold on consignment at local warehouses and then shipped to marketing centres in Boston and Philadelphia or may be purchased directly by mills. Istanbul is the main market for Turkish fleece."

"text": "Myotonic Goat Description, 2005By: D. Phillip Sponenberg, DVM, Ph D & Barbara Roberts Along with input and ideas from many others A breed description is different from most breed standards in that a description describes, while a standard prescribes. The Myotonic goat, a landrace breed, is more varied than standardized goat breeds - especially so if it is compared to imported breeds that were started with relatively few goats that all had very similar traits. A landrace type of population means that the Myotonic goat breed survived (and many still do) as an untracked and unmonitored population of locally used goats for local production purposes. Imported and standardized breeds in the US include nearly all the Dairy breeds along with the Angora and Boer goat. This breed description is lengthy, and tries to be very specific so that breeders can understand just exactly what a Myotonic goat is, and why the breed is more than the single trait of myotonia. The general organization of this document provides a short descriptive piece followed by a comment that explores the practical reasons for the importance of the description and its relation to Myotonic goats. INTRODUCTIONThe Myotonic goat is a distinct breed yet it has many synonyms for names, including Nervous Goats, Wooden-Leg Goats, Scare Goats, Fainting Goats, and Tennessee Fainting Goats. The breed is a multi-purpose goat derived from a variety of strains of goats that were originally from Tennessee. As is typical of locally developed breeds, the overall type and conformation do vary somewhat more than is typical of imported, standardized breeds (dairy breeds, Angoras, Boers).

"text": "\"Breeds of Livestock - Goats Boer Also Known by: Africander, Afrikaner, South African common goat The Boer is an improved indigenous breed with some infusion of European, Angora and Indian goat breeding many years ago. Several researchers agree that the indigenous populations were probably from the Namaqua Hottentots and from southward migrating Bantu tribes. The name is derived from the Dutch word \"\"boer\"\" meaning farmer and was probably used to distinguish the native goats from the Angora goats which were imported into South Africa during the 19th century. The present day Boer goat appeared in the early 1900's when ranchers in the Easter Cape Province started selecting for a meat type goat. The South African registry was established in 1959. Since 1970 the Boer goat has been incorporated into the National Mutton Sheep and Goat Performance Testing Scheme making it the first goat breed involved in meat production performance testing. The Boer goat is primarily a meat goat with several adaptations to the region in which it was developed. It is a horned breed with lop ears and showing a variety of color patterns. The Boer goat is being used very effectively in South Africa in combination with cattle due to its browsing ability and limited impact on the grass cover. Producing weaning rates in excess of 160% the Boer goat doe is a low maintenance animal that has sufficient milk to rear a kid that is early maturing."

There are also some completely brown or white colored Boer goats. They have a pair of long and pendulous ear. They are very fast growing goat breeds and for this reason they are very suitable and most of the farmers prefer them for commercial goat farming purpose. Boer goats have a very high fertility rates compared to other goat breeds. An adult male Boer goat weights about 110-135 kg and an adult female Boer weights about 90-100 kg.

Sheep The most common wool animal is the sheep. Sheep can be categorized into three major types when it comes to wool production: fine wool, medium and coarse wool, and hair-type. Fine wool sheep produce the smallest micron of wool and include the Merino types, Rambouillet and Debouillet. This wool is commonly used in clothing production.

In order to determine a fabric's appearance, how it would wear and its care, it is important to understand the characteristics of the fibers from which the fabric is made. There are basically two groups of fibers: Natural fibers, consisting of animal and plant fibers Man-made or manufactured/synthetic fibers Animal Fibers Angora There are two types of Angora: Mohair (made from the Angora Goat)Angora Rabbit Hair (made from the Angora Rabbit)Typically when we talk about Angora, we refer to Angora Rabbit Hair, while the fibers from the Angora Goat are more commonly known as Mohair. There are 4 different angora rabbit breeds, namely, English, French, Satin and Giant. Angora wool harvested from these rabbits are lightweight, silky, fine, and very soft. It is 7 times warmer than wool, and is ideal for baby clothes, winter underwear, sweaters and mittens. As only a small amount of wool can be harvested from these adorable creatures, angora is often combined with other fibers to minimize the high cost of this luxurious fiber. Camel Family (Alpaca/Llama/Camel/Vicuna)Yarns made from the fibers of these animals are very soft, lustrous, lightweight and warm. Alpaca is often used for the manufacture of warm, luxurious apparel. The down hairs of the Llama will produce a soft yarn also suitable for the manufacture of apparel."

Drenching is the method used to give medicine by mouth, and is normally used to treat animals against worm infections. This method usually refers to dewormers and also medications syringed into a goat’s mouth and down the throat. Drenching can involve a simple syringe, as with most dewormers. You can also use a large syringe or a drench gun for the purposes other than deworming. Place the drench gun or syringe into the mouth of your goat and push the plunger, after adjusting the proper amount of medication or dewormer. How To Drench A Goat Drenching process of your goats will be much easier, if your animals are cooperative. This process will take more time and effort, if your goats are not cooperative and friendly in nature. You will be able to keep your goats free from parasites, if you perform drenching on a regular basis. Usually goats need to be drenched after every 8 weeks."

Photo by Fotolia/Vera Kailova One of the first projects I wanted when we moved to our place in the country was rabbits. I had read many times that they produced excellent tasting meat at little cost. My wife, Carolyn, however, was sort of skeptical of the project because she thought that she she might not be able to eat the rabbits — they looked so cute. One payday when I happened to read an advertisement offering a six compartment, all-metal wire hutch for sale for less than $20 I couldn't resist this good buy. The hutch eventually came, but Carolyn was still skeptical and, anyway, we were up to our necks getting our barn finished up, learning to milk, running our broiler battery, tending to our bees and goats and setting the geese. It wasn't hard to put off getting the rabbits for a while. Then, a friend of mine, Wally Boren noticed I hadn't done anything with my rabbit hutch and he asked if he could use it until I got ready.

They were selected for meat rather than milk production; due to selective breeding and improvement, the Boer goat has a fast growth rate and excellent carcass qualities, making it one of the most popular breeds of meat goat in the world. Boer goats have a high resistance to disease and adapt well to hot, dry semideserts. United States production is centered in west-central Texas, particularly in and around San Angelo and Menard. The original US breeding stock came from herds located in New Zealand. Only later were they imported directly from South Africa. Boer goats commonly have white bodies and distinctive brown heads."

Moreover, protists that exhibit similar morphological features may have evolved analogous structures because of similar selective pressures—rather than because of recent common ancestry. This phenomenon, called convergent evolution, is one reason why protist classification is so challenging. The emerging classification scheme groups the entire domain Eukaryota into six “supergroups” that contain all of the protists as well as animals, plants, and fungi that evolved from a common ancestor ( [link] ). The supergroups are believed to be monophyletic, meaning that all organisms within each supergroup are believed to have evolved from a single common ancestor, and thus all members are most closely related to each other than to organisms outside that group. There is still evidence lacking for the monophyly of some groups. This diagram shows a proposed classification of the domain Eukara. Currently, the domain Eukarya is divided into six supergroups. Within each supergroup are multiple kingdoms. Dotted lines indicate suggested evolutionary relationships that remain under debate."

They are in a different group than prokaryotes, which are organisms that do not have nuclei. Also, many unicellular organisms are in a different group than multicellular organisms. For example, bacteria are unicellular organisms. They are in a different group than animals, which are multicellular. Animal Kingdom The Animal Kingdom consists of multicellular organisms that can move from one place to another."

"text": "Science Biology Q: What Is an Example of a Heterotroph? A: Quick Answer A heterotroph is any organism, including carnivores, omnivores and herbivores, that cannot produce its own food through solar energy and must feed off another life form. In the food chain, heterotrophs represent the consumers. The autotrophs, such as plants and algae, are called the producers of the food chain because of their ability to produce their food with no need to consume another organism. Continue Reading Keep Learning What Is an Organism That Cannot Make Its Own Food Called? What Are Organisms That Cannot Make Their Own Food? What Are Unicellular Organisms? Full Answer All animals, including humans, are classified as heterotrophs because they consume other animals, plants or both in order to obtain the organic substances needed to sustain life. Fungi and some species of bacteria are also heterotrophs. Herbivores are considered the primary consumers in the food chain because they obtain their food directly from the autotrophs of the plant world."

"text": "Dogs > Skin and Hair Conditions Are Dog Warts Contagious? Dog warts are growths that are caused by the papilloma virus. The warts are most commonly found in the eye and mouth area. The warts are contagious and may be transmitted to other canines, but cannot be transmitted to humans. The warts are not a health threat and typically go away without treatment. Dog Warts Are Contagious to Dogs Canine warts are skin growths that have structures similar to cauliflower. The warts form due to a virus, the papilloma virus, which attacks the immune system and leads to the occurrence of warts. The warts may be found in the mouth, eye lids, nose or other mucous membranes, but may also be present on the dog's skin on the limbs or other areas. The papilloma virus is contagious to other canines and may be transmitted through: Direct contact with dog warts From surfaces such as food bowls that are infected with the papilloma virus; it can thrive in certain environments and may live for up to eight weeks Dogs that carry the virus but don't have warts The papilloma virus may be inactive for up to two months after it is contracted. During the two-month incubation period, the infected dog can transmit the virus to susceptible dogs."

They form when the virus invades the skin, usually through a tiny cut or scratch. The virus causes rapid growth of cells on the outer layer of skin. Warts are usually skin-colored but can be dark. They can be rough or smooth. Here are the types of skin warts, known medically as verrucae: • Common warts are found on the fingers, and the backs of the hands • Palmer warts are found on the palms, as the name suggests. • Plantar warts grow on the feet, typically the soles of the feet • Flat warts are typically smaller and smoother than other warts; they can grow in large numbers, even as much as 20 to 100 at a time. Flat warts on children are typically found on the face. • Filiform warts look like the kind that cartoon witches get on their chins or noses and stick straight out.

However, you should take a deep breath and examine all the facts before you bust out the socks and solemnly vow never to go barefoot again. Plantar warts are caused by human papillomavirus (HPV), which, like all viruses, is contagious. It can spread from person to person or from a warm, moist environment to a human being. That said, the strain of HPV that causes plantar warts isn't highly contagious, and it affects everyone differently. Often antibodies will kill the virus before it has the chance to cause the warts. Plantar warts are more common in people with cuts or open sores on their feet and in people with weakened immune systems [source: Mayo Clinic ].

Referred to in the scientific community as acrochordon, tags appear within armpits, on eyelids and even in the genital area. Although they may appear alarming, they are simply excessive skin growth formed into a flap. What Are Warts? Unlike skin tags, warts are contagious. Exposure to a wart, such as through sexual contact, can cause new warts to form. They do not dangle like skin tags, but have a cylindrical shape with pink or white hues.

In dogs, the warts are most commonly presented in a raised manner; however, inverted warts are not uncommon. The pigmented appearance normally presents as a rough surface that is flat in appearance and black in colour. There are instances where the papillomatosis can progress, causing common forms of skin cancer. It is also possible for invasive cancerous cells to penetrate and begin eating the underlying tissues.

Skin tags and cutaneous warts -- meaning nongenital warts -- are among the most common causes of new skin growths. Aesthetically unpleasant and sometimes uncomfortable, skin tags and warts share some similarities. But there are also significant differences in cause, appearance, location, risk factors, typical course and treatment. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Cause Warts, also known as verrucae, are caused by a superficial skin infection with the human papillomavirus (HPV). When HPV viruses infect superficial skin cells, they hijack their internal machinery and frequently stimulate increased cell growth that eventually leads to the appearance of warts. There are more than 150 known types of HPV, and the various types tend to favor specific body sites. Warts are highly contagious. The cause of skin tags, also known as acrochordons, is poorly understood. However, as they tend to occur at sites where skin surfaces rub together, irritation caused by skin friction might contribute to the development of skin tags."

"text": "\"How is HPV Spread? HPV or Human Papillomavirus is classified as a sexually transmitted infection, the most common in many Western countries, but sexual contact is only one way this virus is spread. There are nearly 200 strains of HPV, which may have different symptoms, so HPV is spread in a variety of ways. So, the answer to the question \"\"How is HPV spread?\"\" is – it depends on the strain of HPV that the carrier has. It is also possible to have more than one strain at the same time. HPV transmission occurs through direct skin-to-skin contact or contact with something that has been touching an infected person's skin. One of the factors that makes the spread of HPV difficult to control is that not all the strains of HPV produce visible or noticeable symptoms. Also, even the strains that can cause symptoms may not produce them in some people or may take some time to appear. This means that a person may have been infected with HPV, but be unaware because of the absence of symptoms."

Other symptoms can include tiny red burrows on the skin and relentless itching. The itchy skin leads to frequent scratching, which may predispose the skin to secondary infections. Treatment includes oral or topical scabicidal drugs. Over-the-counter remedies or home remedies are not effective in eliminating scabies. Quick Guide What Is Scabies?"
