"text": "\"ASPCA Announces 2014 Humane Award Winners A therapeutic cat, dedicated congressman, and resilient pit bull among those to be honored at annual luncheon October 29, 2014NEW YORK, NY –A group of outstanding animals and people – including a therapy cat, a 10-year-old girl with a special wish, a twelve-term Congressman and a resilient pit bull– will be honored at this year’s ASPCA ® (The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals®) Humane Awards Luncheon in New York City. The ceremony recognizes animal heroes who have demonstrated extraordinary efforts as well as individuals who have shown great commitment to animal welfare during the past year. “The 2014 Humane Awards winners represent stories of tremendous courage and determination, but also remind us how important animals are to our lives, and the care and protection we can give them in return,” said ASPCA President & CEO Matthew Bershadker. “ We are proud to honor these winners, and hope their journeys inspire more humane action across the country. ”The ASPCA’s annual Humane Awards Luncheon is sponsored by the Hartville Pet Insurance Group, Inc., one of America’s oldest pet health insurers and provider of ASPCA Pet Health Insurance. This special event will be held on Thursday, November 13, 2014, from noon to 2 p.m. at Cipriani 42 nd Street in New York City. Following a nationwide public call for nominations, an ASPCA-appointed committee reviewed hundreds of entries and selected winners in six categories. The 2014 ASPCA Humane Award winners are: ASPCA® Cat of the Year Studley Olympia, Wash. Weighing a mere four pounds and covered in matted fur, Studley the cat was found abandoned along the side of the road by Joint Animal Services in 2006. Though sick, emaciated and nearly starved to death, Studley was adopted and nursed back to health by one of the shelter volunteers. It’s at that point that Studley -- a cheerful white-haired feline with one gold eye and one blue eye – became a therapy cat, giving love and comfort to people in need."

Because they come packed with vitamins and minerals, incorporating vegetables into your pooch's diet can help promote his good health and nutrition. Some veggies that provide your pup with nutritional or health benefits are best consumed in small amounts, while others should be avoided entirely. Roots, Tubers and Stalks Cooked sweet potatoes and yams are safe for your pup to eat. as well as white potatoes, but may want to limit the quantity as they are high in starch. Roots like beets and turnips are also fine for dogs to eat. Yucca, according to Cesar's Way, provides relief from canine digestive problems and holds anti-inflammatory properties.

Plus they're rich in antioxidants, believed to protect cells from the damage caused by free radicals. Some banana slices or pieces of melon are also good choices. A few chunks of apple or pear make a tasty and healthy treat for your Tzu, but watch that he doesn't eat the seeds of either fruit. Apple and pear seeds contain cyanogenic glycosides, which can be toxic. As long as you play it safe and remove the seeds, though, apples and pears are good sources of vitamins and fiber. Other healthy (and tidy) fruit treats your Tzu might enjoy include a few pieces of grapefruit or a couple of orange slices."

"text": "Share this with a friend: When thinking about your online donation landing page it is essential to consider the giving levels that you suggest to your potential donors. These little numbers end up conveying a lot about your organization and your fundraising priorities and can directly influence the giving amount that a donor chooses. Ask too little and you will likely receive less than a donor had planned to give, ask too much and you may deter lower level donors from giving at all. There are a number of different approaches you can take to crafting your online giving levels. Take a look at the ASPCA, Nature Conservancy and American Red Cross as examples. The ASPCA lists dollar amounts from $20 to $100 working to elicit lower level gifts while the Nature Conservancy lists amounts from $50 to $10,000 implying an expected donation of much larger sums. The ASPCA is clearly speaking to first time or lower level donors while the Nature Conservancy has made a choice to address higher level donors with less attention to small gifts. Interestingly, and worth considering, the Red Cross chooses not to list suggested giving amounts at all. Okay, so assuming you do want to suggest levels, how do you choose what the right giving levels are for your organization? ( For the purpose of this post let’s narrow the field to one-time donations as opposed to monthly gifts."

Pothos's waxy-looking large leaves show well on a desk or featured underneath a bay window, and the plant typically requires little care. For these reasons, pothos is a popular houseplant. If you are a dog owner, though, you have be careful where you place your pothos because the plant could poison your pet. Prevention If you own a pothos houseplant, hang it from the ceiling to make sure it is out of reach of your dog. Remove leaves as soon as they fall to the floor, and keep the plant healthy to decease the number of leaves the plant sheds. Know your dog's health. If you have an older dog with many problems, you may have to react quicker to a poison emergency. When you are away from your home, lock your dog in a room without a pothos plant or place your pet outside. If you want your dog indoors, cage your dog when you are away."

Based on data collected from the 40-plus related cases the center has managed since last July, canines who ingest significant amounts of gum or candy solely or largely containing xylitol may develop a sudden drop in blood sugar, resulting in depression, loss of coordination and seizures. \"\" These signs can develop quite rapidly, at times less than 30 minutes after ingestion,\"\" says Dr. Eric Dunayer, consulting veterinarian for the APCC. \"\" Therefore, it is important that pet owners seek veterinary treatment immediately.\"\" Be especially diligent about keeping candy, gum or other foods containing xylitol out of animals' reach. * Medications: always put them out of reach of pets and children.

On April 10, 1866, a special act of the New York State Legislature awarded Bergh a charter to form the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals—the first such organization in the Western Hemisphere! Nine days later, Bergh secured passage of the first effective anti-cruelty law—and also the right to enforce it. The ASPCA became a model for other humane organizations throughout the Americas. Since then, hundreds of laws have been enacted on the federal, state and local levels, providing protections to many species of animals. Today, the ASPCA carries on Bergh’s mission to better protect animals and provide for their well-being by establishing public policy through the legislative process, citizen initiatives and consumer education campaigns. We also offer advocacy training and support for citizens who wish to engage in grassroots lobbying.

"text": "\"How Many Pets are Lost? How Many Find Their Way Home? ASPCA Survey Has Answers First published national study of its kind regarding lost pets June 28, 2012NEW YORK— The ASPCA ® (The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals®) today announced that a telephone survey of more than 1,000 pet-owning households across the country has uncovered new data regarding how many pets have been lost, how many ultimately made it home, and how their guardians found them. The study involved a random digit dial survey of pet guardians to find out if they lost a dog or cat in the past five years – and if they did, did they find that pet – and where did they look? There were 1,015 households that had cared for a dog or cat within the past five years, and of those pet guardians surveyed:15 percent had lost a dog or a cat in the past five years – a lower number than had been anecdotally reported;85 percent of those lost dogs and cats were recovered;The percentage of lost dogs compared to lost cats was quite similar – 14 percent for dogs and 15 percent for cats; and Cat guardians were less likely to find their cat – only 74 percent of lost cats were recovered, while 93 percent of lost dogs were recovered. \"\" This research tells us that there is a possibility that a significant percentage of the stray dogs and cats in the shelters around the country do not have someone looking for them,\"\" said Dr. Emily Weiss, vice president of shelter research and development for the ASPCA. It also highlights the importance of ID tags and other forms of identification to ensure the quick return of lost pets. \"\" In addition, there were differences in the ways in which the lost dogs and cats were recovered: Forty-nine percent of dog guardians found their dog by searching the neighborhood, and 15 percent of the dogs were recovered because they were wearing an ID tag or had a micro-chip;Fifty-nine percent of cat guardians found their cat because it returned home on its own; 30 percent found their cat by searching the neighborhood; and Only 6 percent of dog guardians and 2 percent of cat guardians found their lost pets at a shelter. The data from this research study that shows how and where the guardians found their animals could be extremely helpful for those who may lose a pet in the future. Searching immediately when one knows the pet is lost, and searching within the neighborhood first through visual searches as well as posters and internet opportunities proved to be key."

In fact, whatever you do for a living, you’re bound to have skills and talents your local shelter can use.1. Go to school Thinkstock Dog school, that is. Grab a handful of tasty treats, find a suitable canine and get to class. Helping teach shelter dogs to sit, stay, walk calmly on a leash or shake paws will make them infinitely more adoptable. Amy Boyd, a canine behavior counselor at the Humane Society and SPCA of Austin, TX, oversees a team of volunteers who spend their time playing with puppies or taking adolescent dogs to obedience classes, while others pursue more advanced training and learn how to evaluate temperaments, match adopters with a suitable dog and even counsel owners on behavior problems. “ Adolescent dogs especially need an outlet for all that energy,” says Boyd, “so our volunteers learn how to play with them and teach them good manners at the same time. ”2."

"text": "Animal Shelter Euthanasia National euthanasia statistics are difficult to pinpoint because animal care and control agencies are not uniformly required to keep statistics on the number of animals taken in, adopted, euthanized or reclaimed. While many shelters know the value of keeping statistics, no national reporting structure exists to make compiling national statistics on these figures possible. However, American Humane is one of the founding members of the National Council on Pet Population Study and Policy. The mission of the National Council is to gather and analyze reliable data that further characterize the number, origin and disposition of pets (dogs and cats) in the United States; to promote responsible stewardship of these companion animals; and based on the data gathered, to recommend programs to reduce the number of surplus/unwanted pets in the United States. Unfortunately, the most recent statistics published by the National Council are from 1997, and only 1,000 shelters replied to the survey at that time. Using the National Council’s numbers from 1997 and estimating the number of operating shelters in the United States to be 3,500 (the exact number of animal shelters operating in the United States does not exist), these estimates were made: Of the 1,000 shelters that replied to the National Council’s survey, 4.3 million animals were handled. In 1997, roughly 64 percent of the total number of animals that entered shelters were euthanized — approximately 2.7 million animals in just these 1,000 shelters. These animals may have been euthanized due to overcrowding, but may also have been sick, aggressive, injured or suffering from something else.56 percent of dogs and 71 percent of cats that enter animal shelters are euthanized. More cats are euthanized than dogs because they are more likely to enter a shelter without any owner identification. Only 15.8 percent of dogs and 2 percent of cats that enter animal shelters are reunited with their owners.25 percent of dogs and 24 percent of cats that enter animal shelters are adopted."

A low moral sense or conscience is often apparent, as well as a history of crime, legal problems, or impulsive and aggressive behavior. [ 1] [2]Antisocial personality disorder is defined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM). Dissocial personality disorder (DPD), a similar or equivalent concept, is defined in the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD), which includes antisocial personality disorder in the diagnosis. Both manuals provide similar criteria for diagnosing the disorder. [ 3] Both have also stated that their diagnoses have been referred to, or include what is referred to, as psychopathy or sociopathy, but distinctions have been made between the conceptualizations of antisocial personality disorder and psychopathy, with many researchers arguing that psychopathy is a disorder that overlaps with, but is distinguishable from, ASPD.

But also especially for them not to get an excuse that there is no Assassin Cross guide to help them. Before that here is first a message in which I would like to push in the minds of the readers of this guide; NO BUILD IS GOD BUT HAS IT’S OWN SPECIAL CHARACTERSITICS THAT MAKES THE BUILD “YOU” . All builds are actually fun to play in the Assassin Cross, which is one of the reasons for it to be my favorite build. This guide isn’t perfect but it has the main points on how Assassin Cross builds work. Changes may incur because of the chaos and diversity the game gives. Mostly this is for p RO players who have pretty much no idea on how the Assassin Cross works at all. This is based on all the the experience and stickies I have read for the past 5 months of studying RO builds and especially the sin X builds. I hope you guys can find this useful and insightful. Take note I have made all the builds of The Assassin Cross except for SB so these are actualy knowledge based on experiences and ideas I have collected in my noggin."

There is significant confusion and argument amongst researchers and the general population as how to operationalize these terms. You will not find the terms psychopath and sociopath in mental health’s official handbook, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. Doctors don’t officially diagnose people as psychopaths or sociopaths. They use a different term instead: antisocial personality disorder. Most experts believe psychopaths and sociopaths share a similar set of traits. People like this have a poor inner sense of right and wrong. They also can’t seem to understand or share another person’s feelings. But there are some differences, too. PSYCHOPATHSA primary psychopath is an inherited condition."

Lebourgeois Iii, MDLinked Articles Can You Offer an Example of Medical Deception? The Case of Factitious Disorder Versus Malingering Malingering: Key Points in Assessment The assessment of malingering presents a significant challenge for mental health clinicians. The traditional clinician-patient relationship is based on the assumption that a patient is in genuine need of treatment, so clinicians may feel uneasy about initiating malingering assessment. This uneasiness is understandable given the potential for escalation of an individual's behavior when confronted with the clinician's suspicions of malingering, 1,2 not to mention the rare potential for lawsuits alleging malpractice following a diagnosis of malingering. 3-5Mental health clinicians are nevertheless likely to encounter cases of malingering. Mittenburg and associates 6 reported that in a recent study of 33,531 cases seen by members of the American Board of Clinical Neuropsychology during a 1-year period, probable malingering and symptom exaggeration were found in 30% of disability evaluations, 29% of personal injury evaluations, 19% of criminal evaluations, and 8% of medical cases. This is consistent with earlier studies on base rates of malingering identified during mental health evaluations. 7,8While forensic settings in general harbor higher base rates of malingering, some clinical settings, such as those in which compensation-seeking veterans receive evaluation/treatment for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), may have rates that approach or exceed base rates enumerated in forensic settings. 9 Therefore, mental health clinicians should have familiarity with key points in malingering assessment. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND Malingering was documented in biblical times."

Antisocial Personality Disorder Definition Alternative names Symptoms & Signs Natural History Epidemiology Etiology & Pathogenesis Differential Diagnosis Prevalence Complications Treatment APD in Medical Practice Illustrative Case ASPD, Alcohol, and Aggression Prognosis References Antisocial personality disorder is a condition in which people show a pervasive disregard for the law and the rights of others. People with antisocial personality disorder may tend to lie or steal and often fail to fulfill job or parenting responsibilities. The terms \"\"sociopath\"\" and \"\"psychopath\"\" are sometimes used to describe a person with antisocial personality disorder. Some scholars, such as Robert Hare, still distinguish psychopathy from mere antisocial behavior. Antisocial personality disorder is the most reliably diagnosed condition among the personality disorders, yet treatment efforts are notoriously difficult. Therapeutic hope has not vanished, however, and one study indicated that almost two-thirds of psychiatrists think that \"\"psychopathic disorder\"\" is sometimes a treatable condition. A similar finding was reported nearly 40 years ago. Diagnostic refinement is critical before any treatment efforts are undertaken, especially the determination of the degree of psychopathy in the patient with antisocial personality disorder."

"text": "Practice Essentials Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is a cluster B personality disorder defined as comprising a pervasive pattern of grandiosity (in fantasy or behavior), a constant need for admiration, and a lack of empathy. Signs and symptoms In the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5), [ 1] NPD is defined as comprising a pervasive pattern of grandiosity (in fantasy or behavior), a constant need for admiration, and a lack of empathy, beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts, as indicated by the presence of at least 5 of the following 9 criteria: A grandiose sense of self-importance A preoccupation with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love A belief that he or she is special and unique and can only be understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people or institutions A need for excessive admiration A sense of entitlement Interpersonally exploitive behavior A lack of empathy Envy of others or a belief that others are envious of him or her A demonstration of arrogant and haughty behaviors or attitudes In a proposed alternative model cited in DSM-5, NPD is characterized by moderate or greater impairment in personality functioning, manifested by characteristic difficulties in 2 or more of the following 4 areas [ 2]: Identity Self-direction Empathy Intimacy In addition, NPD is characterized by the presence of both grandiosity and attention seeking. NPD is not associated with any specific defining physical characteristics; however, physical consequences of substance abuse, with which NPD is often associated, may also be apparent on examination. Mental status examination may reveal depressed mood. Patients in the throes of narcissistic grandiosity may display signs of hypomania or mania. See Presentation for more detail. Diagnosis NPD must be distinguished from the other 3 cluster B personality disorders, which are as follows: Antisocial personality disorder (ASPD)Borderline personality disorder (BPD)Histrionic personality disorder (HPD)Patients with NPD may also meet criteria for separate axis I diagnoses. Alternatively, patients with only NPD may at times have symptoms that mimic those of axis I disorders. No specific laboratory studies are employed to diagnose NPD; however, it is wise to obtain a toxicology screen to rule out drugs and alcohol as possible causes of the pathology. Although there is some debate regarding their usefulness and reliability, personality tests such as the following may be administered to help elucidate character pathology and facilitate the diagnosis of NPD: Personality Diagnostic Questionnaire–4 (PDQ-4)Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory III (MCMI-III)International Personality Disorder Examination (IPDE)See Workup for more detail."

How is a malignant narcissist different from a regular narcissist/person with NPD? Well, there are a few important differences: Predatory behaviour. A malignant narcissist is much more likely to actively seek out “victims,” whereas a narcissist/person with NPD is more likely to be an “opportunist” who acts out on a subconscious level when people enter his/her life. Using you, then discarding you. A covert narcissist will not typically “discard” you. They are needy; they need narcissistic supply from you in the form of validation and attention so they can feel whole. If you give it to them, the narcissist will continue to come at you for more — and they never, ever want it to stop. The No Contact Rule is most often used by people in relationships with covert narcissists to end the relationship. A malignant narcissist also wants your attention but if you don’t give it to them, they will kick you to the curb and move on to find someone who will."

When you first meet them, you think they are well-groomed, but in reality, they will bury lies and secrets beneath the mask they show to society of a well-mannered person just like everyone else. If you are wondering what is sociopath, then the answer is complicated as this is actually an incredibly complex personality disorder. The condition is hard to diagnose due to the wide range of maladaptive behavior sociopaths display. Instead of being a single trait, sociopathy is a syndrome, a whole cluster of symptoms related to each other.

"text": "\"How to Tell a Sociopath from a Psychopath Understanding important distinctions between criminal sociopaths and psychopaths Posted Jan 22, 2014SHARETWEETEMAILMOREMany forensic psychologists, psychiatrists and criminologists use the terms sociopathy and psychopathy interchangeably. Leading experts disagree on whether there are meaningful differences between the two conditions. I contend that there are clear and significant distinctions between them. The fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), released by the American Psychiatric Association in 2013, lists both sociopathy and psychopathy under the heading of Antisocial Personality Disorders (ASPD). These disorders share many common behavioral traits which lead to the confusion between them. Key traits that sociopaths and psychopaths have in common, include: A disregard for laws and social mores A disregard for the rights of others A failure to feel remorse or guilt A tendency to display violent behavior In addition to their commonalities, sociopaths and psychopaths also have their own unique behavioral characteristics, as well. Sociopaths tend to be nervous and easily agitated. They are volatile and prone to emotional outbursts, including fits of rage. They are likely to be uneducated and live on the fringes of society, unable to hold down a steady job or stay in one place for very long. It is difficult but not impossible for sociopaths to form attachments with others."

Westreich, MD, Division of Alcoholism and Drug Abuse, Department of Psychiatry, New York University School of Medicine, 550 First Ave, New York, NY 10016. Focus Points• Alcohol dependence co-occurs with mental illness more often than most clinicians realize: >20% of those with mental illness also suffer from alcohol abuse or dependence.• Alcohol use disorders can cause or exacerbate a wide variety of psychiatric syndromes, from schizophrenia to the anxiety disorders.• Alcohol dependence, abuse, or misuse can cause or exacerbate Cluster B personality disorders, and alcoholism itself can be mistakenly diagnosed as a personality disorder.• Treatment of alcohol dependence and a co-occurring mental illness necessitates a coordinated plan which addresses both problems. Abstract Alcohol use disorders (AUDs) frequently affect the course of mental illness. Alcohol can both cause and exacerbate symptoms and must be treated concurrently with the psychiatric illness. Similar to personality disorders, alcohol can cause or worsen symptoms, though often in a more hidden manner. Treatment for dually diagnosed individuals with alcoholism and mental illness consists of an integration of addiction and mental illness treatment paradigms, use of peer-led support groups, a “coaching” therapy style, and medication regimens tailored to each patient’s specific syndromes. Specific psychotherapeutic modalities useful for dually diagnosed patients include relapse-prevention psychotherapy, motivational interviewing, cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy, and social skills training groups."

"text": "11261 Devastating Signs Of Emotional Abuse In A Relationship82k Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Google Pinterest Linkedin Nothing is more damaging to your confidence and self-esteem than being in an emotionally abusive relationship. Unlike physical abuse, which rears its ugly head in dramatic outbursts, emotional abuse can be more insidious and elusive. In some cases, neither the abuser nor the victim is fully aware it's happening. The most obvious scenario for emotional abuse is in an intimate relationship in which a man is the abuser and the woman is the victim. However, a variety of studies show that men and women abuse each other at equal rates. In fact, emotional abuse can occur in any relationship — between parent and child, in friendships, and with relatives. What Is Emotional Abuse? Emotional abuse is a form of brain-washing that slowly erodes the victim's sense of self-worth, security, and trust in themselves and others. In many ways, it is more detrimental than physical abuse because it slowly disintegrates one's sense of self and personal value. It cuts to the core of your essential being, which can create lifelong psychological scars and emotional pain."

"text": "International Paper Sizes & Formats The purpose of this site is to explain current international standard paper sizes, covered by the ISO 216 Standard, and to provide size charts to allow a quick lookup of sizes. If you are looking for the specific size of a particular paper format these are available on the following pages: A Series Paper Sizes B Series Paper Sizes C Series Envelope Sizes US Paper Sizes Newspaper Sizes Postcard Sizes ISO Paper Sizes Standard Overview & Rationale The ISO paper size A standard is based on each size being half of the size of the previous one, when folded parallel to the shorter lengths. This system allows for a variety of useful applications, such as the enlarging and reducing of images without any cutoff or margins, or folding to make a booklet of the next size down. The mathematics behind this useful feature is that the sheets have an aspect ratio (that's the ratio of the length to the width) of the square root of 2. Image courtesy of Office 365. A Series Paper Sizes Formal Definition The ISO 216 definiton of the A paper sizes is based on the following basis: The length divided by the width is 1.4142The A0 size has an area of 1 square metre. Each subsequent size A (n) is defined as A (n-1) cut in half parallel to its shorter sides. The standard length and width of each size is rounded to the nearest millimetre. Note: The last item is there because the root 2 aspect ratio doesn't always give a whole number. Sizes for A Series Paper - A0, A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, A7 and A8Extensions - B Series Paper Sizes There are some requirements for paper sizes where the A series isn't suitable and to take these into account the B series paper sizes were introduced."

The difference between US Letter and Legal Paper sizes and international A4 is discussed here, however it is important to say that Letter is effectively the equivalent to A4 size in the USA. ANSI Standard Paper Sizes ANSI ( American National Standards Institute) defined a regular series of paper sizes based around the Letter (8.5\"\" x 11\"\") format, with this becoming the A sizes and larger sizes being B,C,D & E. Surprisingly these ANSI standard sizes were defined in 1995 well after the ISO standard sizes. ANSI A sized paper is commonly referred to as Letter and ANSI B as Ledger or Tabloid. Unlike the ISO standard sizes which have the single aspect ratio of 1:root2, ANSI standard sizes have two aspect ratios 1:1.2941 and 1:1.5455 which means that enlarging and reducing between the sizes is not as easy as with the ISO sizes and leaves wider margins on the enlarged/reduced document.

How did this happen? It’s all about aspect ratio. What is aspect ratio, you ask? Aspect Ratio is simply a measurement of a photograph?s width to height. The aspect ratio for 35mm cameras, film or digital DSLR’s, is 3:2. This means that the long side is 1.5 times as long as the short side. This aspect ratio will produce 4″ by 6″ prints. Most professional photographers I know won’t offer prints in this small size, so let’s take our perfectly framed image and go up another standard size – the classic 8″ by 10″ print."

Chords on a swept-wing In aeronautics, chord refers to the imaginary straight line joining the leading and trailing edges of an aerofoil. The chord length is the distance between the trailing edge and the point on the leading edge where the chord intersects the leading edge. [ 1] [2]The point on the leading edge that is used to define the chord can be defined as either the surface point of minimum radius, [2] or the surface point that will yield maximum chord length [ citation needed]. The wing, horizontal stabilizer, vertical stabilizer and propeller of an aircraft are all based on aerofoil sections, and the term chord or chord length is also used to describe their width. The chord of a wing, stabilizer and propeller is determined by measuring the distance between leading and trailing edges in the direction of the airflow. ( If a wing has a rectangular planform, rather than tapered or swept, then the chord is simply the width of the wing measured in the direction of airflow.) The term chord is also applied to the width of wing flaps, ailerons and rudder on an aircraft."

"text": "\"Aspect Ratio: What it is and Why it Matters A Post By: Andrew S. Gibson This article is written by Andrew S. Gibson, the author of Square. Today I’d like to draw your attention to an area of composition that you might not have given much thought to: aspect ratio. Aspect ratio is the term used to describe the dimensions of an image by comparing the width to the height and expressing it in ratio form. The aspect ratio of your images is primarily determined by the dimensions of your camera’s sensor (or the film type plus camera design with film cameras). As these physical aspects are fixed, it is easy to take the aspect ratio of your images for granted, and to not consider the implications of the aspect ratio you are using in relation to composition. Camera makers have realised that sometimes photographers like to work in different aspect ratios, and most recent digital cameras let you change the aspect ratio using the camera’s menu. You can also crop an image to a different aspect ratio in post-processing. Why aspect ratio matters Why does aspect ratio matter? It’s all to do with the relationship of the main subject to the sides of the frame, and the amount of empty space you end up with around the subject. An awareness of the characteristics of the aspect ratio of your particular camera can help you compose better images."

( April 2017)High-definition television ( HDTV) is a television system providing an image resolution that is of substantially higher resolution than that of standard-definition television. HDTV is the current standard video format used in most broadcasts: terrestrial broadcast television, cable television, satellite television, Blu-rays, and streaming video. HDTV may be transmitted in various formats:720p (HD Ready): 1280×720p: 923,600 pixels (~0.92 MP) per frame1080i (Full HD) : 1920×1080i: 1,036,800 pixels (~1.04 MP) per field or 2,073,600 pixels (~2.07 MP) per frame1080p (Full HD): 1920×1080p: 2,073,600 pixels (~2.07 megapixels) per frame Some countries also use a non-standard CEA resolution, such as 1440×1080i: 777,600 pixels (~0.78 MP) per field or 1,555,200 pixels (~1.56 MP) per frame The letter \"\"p\"\" here stands for progressive scan, while \"\"i\"\" indicates interlaced. When transmitted at two megapixels per frame, HDTV provides about five times as many pixels as SD (standard-definition television). The increased resolution provides for a clearer, more detailed picture. In addition, progressive scan and higher frame rates resulting in a picture with less flicker and better rendering of fast motion. ["

"text": "\"International standard paper sizesby Markus Kuhn Standard paper sizes like ISO A4 are widely used all over the world today. This text explains the ISO 216 paper size system and the ideas behind its design. The ISO paper size concept In the ISO paper size system, the height-to-width ratio of all pages is the square root of two (1.4142 : 1). In other words, the width and the height of a page relate to each other like the side and the diagonal of a square. This aspect ratio is especially convenient for a paper size. If you put two such pages next to each other, or equivalently cut one parallel to its shorter side into two equal pieces, then the resulting page will have again the same width/height ratio. The ISO paper sizes are based on the metric system. The square-root-of-two ratio does not permit both the height and width of the pages to be nicely rounded metric lengths. Therefore, the area of the pages has been defined to have round metric values. As paper is usually specified in g/m², this simplifies calculation of the mass of a document if the format and number of pages are known."

When we talk about 4:3 and 16:9 formats, we're talking about the rectangular shape of the video image, or what is called its aspect ratio. A standard TV has an aspect ratio of 4:3. That means the picture is four units wide for every three units of height. The HDTV standard is 16:9, which is 16 units of width for every 9 units of height. So HDTV's 16:9 is horizontally wider than regular TV, which by comparison looks almost square. Here's the problem: any given projector or TV comes in its own native format--typically 16:9 these days. On the other hand, movies and video come in many different aspect ratios. TV programs and videos intended for regular TV are done in 4:3 format, often denoted \"\"1.33:1\"\" since 4 divided by 3 = 1.33. On the other hand, programs made for HDTV are in 16:9 format, which is 1.78:1 (16 divided by 9 = 1.78)."

Thankfully, picking the right laptop screen is a pretty straight forward process. We are going to show you via this brief guide just how easy it is to find the perfect laptop screens. Laptop Screen Size Overview Selecting a laptop screens size should always be your starting point primarily because the physical body of the laptop increases along with screen size. This means weight will typically increase too, and being that weight is often a key factor for making or breaking a great laptop purchase, this is yet another reason why it is advisable to hone in on screen size first. For example, the increased size and weight of your typical 17 or 20-inch laptop isn't going to be ideal for most travelers or for those who will be consistently lugging their laptops around town. Students who will be running around campus will also want to take note for a large laptop is less than ideal for cramming in their bag along with books, etc., and backaches aren't exactly fun either!In today's mobile world some common screen sizes include 10.1, 12.1, 13.3, 14.1, 15.4, and 17-inches.

If you need to go cheaper, drop to a 24-inch model with 1,920x1,080 (FHD) resolution, which you can get for less than $150. If you want to put a little more thought into it, here are some rules of thumb to follow: Within the constraints of your budget and desk space, get the largest monitor you can. You'll rarely regret buying a monitor that's too big, but you'll always regret buying one that's too small. There are also super-widescreen monitors with 21:9 aspect ratio (2.35:1). Many of these models are curved, and most of them are 34-inch displays with lower-than-4K resolution. If you can afford it, go 4K; if not, choose one with a 16:9 aspect ratio, which is most commonly 1,920x1,080 (FHD, or \"\"full HD\"\"). You can find the aspect ratio by dividing the horizontal resolution by the vertical resolution, and the the result for 16:9 should be 1.77:1.

"text": "\"Just because you're restricted to the 3:2 aspect ratio of a standard DSLR it doesn't mean you can't experiment with other formats, writes Tony Bridge. The aspect ratio of an image is simply the proportion of its width to its height. Most DSLRs produce images with an aspect ratio of 3:2, though some (Olympus and Panasonic interchangeable-lens cameras) produce images in the \"\"squarer\"\" 4:3 ratio. Aspect ratio has an incredibly powerful effect on the way we read photographs. Sometimes the scene in front of you will not be an easy fit for the format you're using. And sometimes, you'll find that a scene simply works better with a different aspect ratio. A wide desert landscape is not easily shoehorned into the 3:2 or 4:3 format of most cameras. Similarly, some portraits simply look better in square, 1:1, format. Importantly, just because your camera produces images in the 3:2 or 4:3 format it doesn't mean you can't change that format to suit your creative goals – either by cropping or by stitching several images together. Cropping to square (1:1) produces a more old-style formal rendition, while stitching several images together to produce a single panoramic image is an effective way to capture the full breadth of a landscape."

Now we can subsitute 9b/16 for a in the first equation a^2+b^2=c^2 becomes (9b/16)^2 + b^2 = c^2 Squaring the nominator and the denominator of the fraction yields 81b^2/256 + b^2 = c^2 To perform the addition, we need to express b^2 as a fraction with denominator 256 which is 256b^2/256, Now we have 81b^2/256 + 256b^2/256 = c^2 Adding fractions with the same denominators is now easy and produces 337b^2/256 = c^2 Cross multiply to get 337b^2 = 256c^2 Divide both sides by 337 to get b^2 b^2=256c^2/337 Take the square root of both sides to get b b = sqrt (256c^2/337) Now, let's assume the TV has a diagonal of 55 inches, then b = sqrt ( (256 * 55^2)/337) = sqrt (774400/337) = 47.936654541850210631076300226891 Now that we know b, a = 9b/16 = 26.96436817979074347998041887762617.6k Views · View Upvoters Your response is private.

"text": "\"Difference Between Widescreen and Full Screen• Categorized under Household Equipments, Technology | Difference Between Widescreen and Full Screen Widescreen vs Full Screen Due to the introduction of HDTVs, there are now two basic types of TV screens; the widescreen format and the full screen. The main difference between the two is the aspect ratio that they use. Full screen uses an aspect ratio of 4:3, which means that it is 1.33 times wider than it is high. The old CRT TVs are an example of the full screen format with its square screen. In contrast, widescreen TVs use an aspect ratio of 16:9 (1.77 wide compared to its height) or greater. It is easy to spot widescreen TVs as they are a lot wider than standard CRTs. One of the reasons that pushed the adoption of widescreen TVs is to match the display aspect ratio that is used in movie theaters, which are pretty wide. Previously, watching movies on a full screen TV usually meant that the black lines were present on the bottom and on top of the screen in order to fit the frame into the screen. This is very wasteful of screen space. With widescreen TVs, you get minimal or no black bars thereby maximizing the use of the screen."

"text": "\"Typical: $2-$5 a Square Foot 12'x50' Driveway: $1,200-$3,000+E-mail Post Tweet Comments (5)Asphalt is a common driveway material because of its relatively low price compared to concrete. It generally works better and is more popular in colder climates because it can crack with constant exposure to high temperatures. Typical costs: Cost Helper readers report paying $2,300 -$10,300 to install a new asphalt driveway or completely remove replace an old one, or $1.67 -$2.72 a square foot, with an average cost of $2.24 a square foot. Readers report paying $2,000 -$3,800 to door-to-door contractors to redo all or parts of an asphalt driveway, at $0.73 -$1.37 a square foot with an average of $1.17 a square foot. An asphalt driveway typically costs about $2 -$5 a square foot, $1,200 - $3,000 for a 12'x50' single-car driveway; or $25,000 -$50,000 for up to a quarter mile. Slopes, curves, odd shapes and other complications add to the total cost, and smaller jobs aren't necessarily cheaper because it costs the contractor a minimum amount to haul the asphalt heater, steamroller and other equipment to the site. Costs can go as low as $1 -$2 a square foot or less, particularly for repaving work by door-to-door hustlers claiming they have \"\"left over\"\" asphalt in their truck and will install it cheaply; many experts caution against this, because the quality of the work may be substandard, there's no way to find the company after the work is done and the \"\"left over\"\" asphalt may have cooled off too much, which affects its durability and quality. What should be included: Asphalt requires professional equipment and a trained crew. It can include removing topsoil and organic material or existing pavement; compacting the soil; installing geo-tech fabric if the soil is weak or drains poorly; laying a base; and applying 2\"\"-3\"\" of asphalt and compacting it.

Asphalt Shingle Roof Prices Asphalt shingles are the most popular roofing material in the United States. In fact, if you drive around a typical residential neighborhood, approximately three out of four homes you pass will have asphalt shingle roofing. The popularity of asphalt roofs, also known as composition roofs, stems from their cost effectiveness and performance. While materials such as slate and tile may last significantly longer than asphalt, their high price tag makes them unrealistic for the majority of homeowners. Furthermore, technological advancements have resulted in asphalt shingles that are more attractive, longer lasting, and better for the environment. To learn more about asphalt roofing shingles, including how much you can expect to pay for them, continue reading. Asphalt Shingles: An Overview Asphalt roof shingles have three main components: the base (also called a felt, mat, or substrate), an asphalt coating, and a weather-resistant topcoat made from mineral granules. The shingle base provides it with structure and strength, the asphalt lends a degree of weatherability and stability, and the surface granules give a shingle its color in addition to ultraviolet ray protection.

"text": "The average cost to pave an asphalt parking lot in South Jersey varies from market to market and is contingent on several factors listed below. The average cost in the South Jersey Market for a 50,000 sq ft parking lot ranges in price from $1.25 - $1.50 per square foot for a 1 ½” – 2” compacted overlay. Factors That Affect Price Of Paving a Parking Lot MILLING: If the parking lot severely cracked, has drainage issues or your curb reveal (Space from the current grade of asphalt to the top of the curb / sidewalk) is less than 6” your parking lot would benefit from asphalt milling where 1” – 3” of existing asphalt is grinded off the surface with a milling machine prior to paving. The cost of milling ranges from $0.25 - $0.60 per square foot. ALLIGATOR CRACKING: If the asphalt parking lot your are considering paving has extensive alligator cracking or underground water issues, it is advisable to install a geotextile paving fabric (Mirafi, Petro Mat, Glass Grid or equivalent) prior to installing the asphalt overlay. The paving fabric will prevent the alligator cracks from coming back up through the surface. The cost of paving fabric typically ranges from $0.14-$0.22 per square foot. LEVELING COURSE OR DRAINAGE CORRECTION: If the asphalt parking lot currently has extensive puddling or large areas of standing water from improper grade, you will want to correct these prior to paving. An asphalt leveling course can be installed prior to paving to shim any low spots or puddles. Using a laser grade system, elevations can be shot and the milling crew can be directed where to “profile mill” to manipulate the grade to promote positive drainage."

"text": "Asphalt vs. Concrete Driveway: Cost and Maintenance When it's time to construct a new driveway, you have to choose your materials, and the most common are asphalt and concrete. Both materials have their benefits and drawbacks, and your choice will largely depend on your budget, aesthetics, and where you live. Cost of Installation Concrete driveways generally cost around 45 percent more to install in comparison to asphalt driveways. As a result, asphalt has a higher number of buyers in most areas. However, it is important to consider the toughness and longevity of both materials, as poor resistance to the elements and the need for frequent repairs can make any driveway more costly in the long run. Climate Compatibility Asphalt driveways are better suited to colder climates because constant exposure to high temperatures tends to make asphalt soft. In such circumstances, cracks and grooves may appear on the driveway, necessitating repair; however, it is easier to fix cracks in asphalt than in concrete. Concrete driveways are more resistant to high temperatures, but in very cold climates, care must be taken to ensure that the base of the driveway is filled with compact gravel. If the foundation is not laid properly, concrete driveways are adversely affected by frost heave. Salt used on roads to combat ice and snow will also damage your concrete if you aren't careful."

"text": "Design Tips Innovation Cost and Benefits of a Warm Mix Asphalt This growing trend is a green alternative to traditional processes Share Flip Pin Email•••By Juan Rodriguez Updated October 08, 2017One of the biggest trends in the construction industry is warm mix asphalt. Warm mix asphalt is a different process for mixing, hauling, placing and compaction asphalt mixtures. It is a greener process that has less impact on the environment, with reduced hydrocarbon emissions and greenhouse gases. Due to its lower temperature, it is also safer for construction workers to use. Differences between Warm Mix and Hot Mix Asphalt Warm mix asphalt is produced using temperatures 30 to 120 degrees Fahrenheit lower than what is used for traditional hot mix asphalt. Less energy is needed to heat the warm mix asphalt, so it uses less fuel, decreasing the plant's carbon footprint. When compared to hot mix asphalt, warm mix asphalt cools at a lower rate, so the paving season is extended, allowing road repairs and construction to finish more quickly. This benefit helps save time and money on labor and equipment, as workers and tools are needed for a smaller span of time and projects can be finished more quickly. It also lessens the impact on traffic, as projects finish faster and there are less interruptions to roadways. Warm Mix Asphalt Cost Warm mix asphalt has an initial cost higher than traditional hot mix asphalt."

While this is a widely touted fact, many people do not fully understand just how green the Asphalt is ‘green’ for many reasons. Firstly, asphalt is not a throwaway product. Whether asphalt roadways are one year old or 60 years old, the asphalt is able to be milled, or removed, from the road, ground, and black stuff is integrated right back into the new mix. This procedure saves on oil costs, reduces virgin aggregate needs, and creates a cycle in which asphalt is never dumped in a land fill or discarded. It can always be reused. This is good not only for the consumer, but for the environment too. Asphalt is green not just because it uses old asphalt in the production of new, but because other waste products are able to be integrated into the mix. Shingles and ground tire rubber are able to be integrated into asphalt. This reduces the virgin material need while providing an incredibly useful home for materials that would otherwise find themselves in landfills."

A properly installed asphalt driveway will perform much like concrete but at a much lower cost. The trade-off is that you will need to seal coat the asphalt every few years. Because it is a petroleum product, asphalt is flexible, which makes it less susceptible to cracking. But asphalt can also get very hot in the summer. Here is some information that should help you decide whether or not asphalt is a good choice for your driveway. What Is Asphalt? The components of the blacktop that is used on asphalt driveways consist of bits of rock, sand and asphalt cement. How To Maintain an Asphalt Driveway Clean the driveway at least twice a year. Use a stiff broom and strong hose spray to remove all dirt and debris."

When the time comes to install a new driveway, the biggest decision is whether to use concrete or asphalt. Sure, there are other driveway material choices — gravel at the low end and brick pavers at the high end — but concrete and asphalt are the most common, and each comes with advantages and disadvantages. Concrete lasts longer, but asphalt driveways are less expensive to install. Asphalt needs more maintenance, but is generally easier to repair. In winter, concrete driveways can suffer damage if you use the wrong de-icing product. Both concrete and asphalt driveways need solid foundations prepared by experts.

"text": "\"Related Articles How to Calculate Asphalt Weight Per Yard Costs of Building a Foundation How to Measure for a Driveway How to Pave an Asphalt Driveway There are many factors to take into consideration when estimating the costs to pave a driveway. The two greatest factors are the total area of the driveway and the region where you live. The cost of materials and labor vary widely from region or area of the country to another. Average Costs Per Square Foot Depending on the region of the country where you live the cost of a new asphalt paved driveway ranges from $2 to $5 per square foot installed as of 2013, with an average of around $3 to $4 per square foot. These prices include the cost of labor and the gravel base. The cost of a recycled asphalt driveway, a driveway where an old asphalt driveway is broken up and then reused to lay a new driveway, should be considerably less. Plain or Decorative It's possible to pave a driveway with patterned and colored asphalt. The $2 to $5 range no longer applies to these decorative driveways and, depending on how elaborate the design, the sky is the limit on costs.

Asphalt driveway sealing costs are determined by strict calculated method and not just a simple square foot price. Throughout my career, many times we’ve had customers call us and ask “How much would it cost to seal my driveway… just give me your square foot price?” And that seems pretty simple right? It seems like it would make sense for a contractor to just be able to throw out a number, doesn’t it? Really, you should beware of any contractor that is willing to just throw out a number. Why? Let’s say you call a contractor and ask them “What’s your square foot price?” And let’s also say just for example, after asking you a few questions, the contractor says “$.30 cents a square foot”.

Asphalt Driveway Cost First let me point out that this article is only a guide so that you can get a feel for what a new driveway may cost. Please remember that local markets will fluctuate quite a bit based on demand and current asphalt prices and any heavy haul services required. Also, these prices assume no base prep work which can add quite a bit of money to the job. Recently we had the “wearing surface” of our driveway installed. Before paving the wearing course I did some quick estimates of the asphalt driveway cost. When we built our home three years ago I only had the first 2-inches of base asphalt pavement installed. I opted to wait before I installed the wearing surface (top 1-inch) to save money and also let the sub-base and base settle over several winters."

It is a functional landscape design element. The simplicity of this tar and chip driveway provides a casual look, while not taking away from the beautiful trees lining it...and their fall color.

Driveway Paving Prices Total driveway paving cost will vary from region to region consistent with local material and labor costs. Most gravel driveways are made of crushed stone or gravel which costs about $25-$30 per ton plus $100 or so for delivery per load (the average dump truck can handle 13 or so tons.) For a small, 15 ft. x 20 ft. by 3 inch deep driveway, 5 tons should be more than enough, at a total cost of around $250. For a larger driveway or thicker base, the cost will be higher. For example, a driveway 15 feet wide by 700 feet long with a six inch base will need approximately 25 tons of gravel, at a material cost of about $700. With delivery, the total cost will be around $1000. The cost of pouring a concrete driveway depends on the quality of the concrete."

Materials for this project will be dependent on your needs, your current driveway materials, cost and availability. Options include asphalt, oil and stone and concrete. In some cases, extended a dirt driveway may also be possible. Needs and Space Availablity Consider how much room you have and how much you want to have for your driveway. The standard width of driveways is between 10 and 12 feet, which will allow for single car parking. If you want to park two vehicles side-by-side in the driveway, consider adding on to make the total width 18 to 20 feet. Other considerations include how long you want your driveway to be, how much room on your property you have available for additional parking, and what kind of access you want in and out of the driveway. You can have a straight driveway where you drive in and park and then back straight out, for example, or you can provide an area for a turnaround so that parked cars can drive in and out easily. Laws and Codes Before deciding on a material and hiring a contractor (or doing it yourself), look over the laws and codes that govern driveways, right-of-ways and easements where you live."

Slopes, curves, odd shapes and other complications add to the total cost, and smaller jobs aren't necessarily cheaper because it costs the contractor a minimum amount to haul the asphalt heater, steamroller and other equipment to the site. Costs can go as low as $1 -$2 a square foot or less, particularly for repaving work by door-to-door hustlers claiming they have \"\"left over\"\" asphalt in their truck and will install it cheaply; many experts caution against this, because the quality of the work may be substandard, there's no way to find the company after the work is done and the \"\"left over\"\" asphalt may have cooled off too much, which affects its durability and quality. What should be included: Asphalt requires professional equipment and a trained crew. It can include removing topsoil and organic material or existing pavement; compacting the soil; installing geo-tech fabric if the soil is weak or drains poorly; laying a base; and applying 2\"\"-3\"\" of asphalt and compacting it.

"text": "What does it cost to have my driveway sealed? The short answer is that it depends. With driveway sealing, there are enough factors to consider that it is difficult to zero in on a price for every different type of driveway in every city. What we can do is provide you with some guidelines so that you know how to figure the approximate driveway sealing costs of your particular home and how often you should have it sealed. How Often Should You Seal Asphalt Driveways? If you look around the web you will find differing opinions on this matter. Some say that you only need to seal your asphalt drive every 3-10 years. Others, every year. The real difficulty in determining what’s right for you is weather. If you are in an area where you receive a great deal of rain and snow, or in an area where it freezes and thaws often, or in an area where the temperature reaches well over 100 degrees in the summer and your driveway is unprotected from the brutal rays of the sun, then you need to seal your driveway at least every other year."

Properly installed driveways can last for at least two decades, which is why some homeowners are willing to pay extra to ensure their driveways stand out. Gravel driveways are the most basic type, while concrete and asphalt are two of the most popular and basic driveway options. If you’re willing to spend a little more, you can have the concrete’s surface stamped to add color and texture. Paver driveways are another option, especially if your goal is to make your home blend in with a walkway or other hardscaping feature. Before hiring a contractor to install a driveway, you’ll need to be sure they have experience installing the specific kind of driveway you’re looking for. Each type requires specific skills and knowledge to install, and you want to be sure the contractor you hire knows how to do the job correctly the first time. Make sure prospective contractors include base materials and plan in their written proposals. Low bids may mean they plan to skimp on the base, which will lead to a weaker driveway that will fail prematurely."

"text": "\"A driveway is an expensive — but important — addition for your house. It provides a good entry point and reduces the amount of mud and dirt tracked into your home. There are many paving options, with costs varying with the size of the driveway, soil preparation required and type of paving. Costs also vary by region and when you schedule the work -- avoiding peak construction periods will save you money. Size Matters The square footage -- the length of the driveway times its width -- is the key factor in paving cost. A single driveway, wide enough for one car, will usually be 9 or 10 feet wide, while a double driveway will be twice that width. A driveway typically extends from a street curb to a garage or carport while curves or bends add to the square footage. A driveway less than 10 feet wide may cost a bit more because it reduces access for equipment. Excavation Driveway paying starts with excavation, removing dirt for a new driveway or getting rid of old material if you're rebuilding a driveway. This will vary with the type of soil and how much material has to be removed."

There are various asphalt mix designs for various paving applications. Q. What is chip and seal? A Chip and seal is a low cost alternative to asphalt paving. A thick layer of liquid asphalt emulsion is sprayed on the existing drive then a layer of limestone or gravel is placed over the liquid. Chip and seal gives the appearance of a loose stone or gravel driveway except the stone is bound in place by the emulsion Q. How long before I can drive and park on my newly paved driveway? A. We advise our customers to keep vehicles off the fresh asphalt for 2-3 days. We also suggest that you do not park heavy objects such as campers and trailers in the exact same spot for extended periods. This is critical in the hotter summer months."

"text": "How to Calculate Cost of Asphalting a Driveway. Before starting any project, it is a good idea to calculate costs to understand the financial impact of the project. This goes double for any home improvements such as asphalting a driveway. If you wait for the contractors to do the estimate, you will just have to take them at their word. Calculating the cost prior to the project will strengthen your price negotiating position. Step 1Measure the area of the driveway to determine how much asphalt you will need for the driveway. It is usually best to add an inch or two of area all the way around to allow for asphalting waste. Step 2Decide how deep the asphalt driveway will be. If you lay the asphalt driveway over an existing driveway, you will need to measure from the top of that surface and add in any filler areas if there are damaged areas in the existing asphalt. However, should you want to completely tear out the existing driveway, you must measure from the ground up."

"text": "\"How much does it cost to build an asphalt driveway? Driveways can be long and winding paths that take a visitor through a bit of landscape before reaching their destination, or they can be a large square that sits adjacent to the home. They can be quite costly to pave and maintain, and though gravel is a very low-cost option, a majority of homeowners will usually consider asphaltic materials for their durability. The costs and requirements for the creation of a 600 square foot driveway that is roughly 12'x50' in size are $830. However, prices will be higher if the area has any slopes or curves. Cost breakdown According to RSMeans, the cost calculator software an asphalt 1 driveway project must include: Land clearing and tree removal - it is quite common for an area about to be paved to require the removal of brush, trees, and boulders this will tend to cost:$48 per hour, per worker to manage a single acre of cutting and chipping light trees;$68 each for the removal of stumps;$20 to $40 per hour for the chipping of trees larger than 18\"\" in diameter;$13 to $20 per hour for tree removal; and$150 to $400 per hour for complete site clearing, depending upon the machinery necessary for the job (usually including a large bull dozer);Grading 2 - sub-grading the area for a slab on grade 2 is going to cost roughly $1.43 per square yard for a total of $100; and Asphalt 1 - asphaltic concrete 3 is usually installed at a depth no less than 2\"\". For this project, the asphalt 1 is at 2.5\"\" and would cost roughly $830 installed. This tends to have a life span of 10 to 30 years and will need treatment every six to ten years to maintain its good looks and durability. This is known as a macadam 3 treatment and will average around $2 per square foot, or roughly $1200 every six years. Additional considerations and costs Contractor - though it may be tempting to work strictly with an asphalt 1 company in order to quickly get a basic driveway in place, it is usually best to consult with a qualified engineer when the driveway is somewhat complex and covers a great deal of area."

Replacing or repairing an asphalt driveway can add to your home’s curb appeal and improve its resale value. Although asphalt driveways don’t typically last as long as their concrete counterpart, they’re one of the most cost-effective options. RELATED: The Angie’s List Guide to Driveways“Typical life expectancy of an asphalt driveway is 15 years,” says Ron Reibling, owner of Aurora Asphalt & Sealcoating in Champlin, Minnesota. “ It really depends whether it’s maintained properly by sealcoating and crack filling. Without proper maintenance, the oils in the asphalt will oxidize out and lead to premature cracking from brittleness. ”In cases where the driveway is old and crumbling, it may be a better idea to hire a driveway contractor to replace it than to repair it. Many contractors say asphalt driveways need to be replaced between 15 and 25 years if properly maintained."

When the time comes to install a new driveway, the biggest decision is whether to use concrete or asphalt. Sure, there are other driveway material choices — gravel at the low end and brick pavers at the high end — but concrete and asphalt are the most common, and each comes with advantages and disadvantages. Concrete lasts longer, but asphalt driveways are less expensive to install. Asphalt needs more maintenance, but is generally easier to repair. In winter, concrete driveways can suffer damage if you use the wrong de-icing product. Both concrete and asphalt driveways need solid foundations prepared by experts.

An asphalt driveway typically costs about $2 -$5 a square foot, $1,200 - $3,000 for a 12'x50' single-car driveway; or $25,000 -$50,000 for up to a quarter mile. Slopes, curves, odd shapes and other complications add to the total cost, and smaller jobs aren't necessarily cheaper because it costs the contractor a minimum amount to haul the asphalt heater, steamroller and other equipment to the site. Costs can go as low as $1 -$2 a square foot or less, particularly for repaving work by door-to-door hustlers claiming they have \"\"left over\"\" asphalt in their truck and will install it cheaply; many experts caution against this, because the quality of the work may be substandard, there's no way to find the company after the work is done and the \"\"left over\"\" asphalt may have cooled off too much, which affects its durability and quality. What should be included: Asphalt requires professional equipment and a trained crew. It can include removing topsoil and organic material or existing pavement; compacting the soil; installing geo-tech fabric if the soil is weak or drains poorly; laying a base; and applying 2\"\"-3\"\" of asphalt and compacting it.

"text": "Home > Home Improvement > Landscaping > Cost to Seal a Driveway How Much Does Sealing an Asphalt Driveway Cost? Asphalt Sealing Prices Whether you want to keep your recently paved asphalt driveway looking brand new or extend the life of an older driveway, sealcoating is a worthwhile investment. Sealant forms a layer of protection on top of the driveway that reduces the deleterious effects of the elements and chemicals. In addition to preserving the driveway, a coat of sealant improves a home's curb appeal and value. Driveway Sealing Considerations The cosmetic and performance benefits of driveway sealing make this job practically a no-brainer. But the finer points of sealing, such as how often to do it, which products and application methods to use, and whether or not to hire a pro, aren't so obvious. Read on to find out the answers to some frequently asked driveway sealing questions. How Often Should I Seal my Driveway? The recommended interval for driveway sealing depends on your local climate.

"text": "A Rough Estimate of Driveway Paving Cost Posted on November 12, 2010If you want to install a new driveway at your home, you are probably most concerned with the cost. Due to the high square footage of most driveways, and the need for a base that can handle vehicular traffic, driveway paving costs are usually higher than for other hardscape projects (like walkways, patios, and the like). However, this large square footage can decrease the total cost per square foot, simply because it’s more economical to install the driveway over a larger area (the fixed costs are more widely distributed. ) Before we draw out all the different costs for different materials, there are a few general factors that will affect the driveway paving cost estimate. Factors that Affect Driveway Paving Costs Your location. If you live in a more expensive area, your price will be higher, and if you live in a lower cost area, your price will be lower. This is a factor that’s obviously out of your control. However, if you are able to combine with other homeowners on your street to get multiple jobs done, you may be able to save money as a whole due to the convenience you offer a potential contractor. The contractor you hire will have an obvious effect on the price you’ll pay. If you consult with different contractors, you’ll get different bids for the job."

Depending on the materials used, a driveway can be utilitarian, like gravel, asphalt, or concrete, or decorative, like stamped asphalt, stamped concrete, or cobblestone. Typical costs: A gravel driveway starts at roughly $0.75 -$3 or more a square foot, or $300 -$1,000 for a 12'x25' single-car driveway. Costs can double for a roadway-quality driveway. Loose gravel will need replenishing periodically, but a correctly designed, installed and maintained gravel driveway can last 50-100 years or more.

"text": "Stamping Top Coat of Asphalt: $3-$9 a Square Foot New Stamped Asphalt Driveway: $5-$12+ a Square Foot E-mail Post Tweet Compared to concrete, pavers, bricks or stone, basic asphalt is a durable and relatively low-cost driveway paving material. It is also uniformly dark black and, to some people, dull and uninspired. To give it a more dramatic and upscale appearance, asphalt in a driveway, walkway or patio area can be stamped and colored to look like bricks or pavers. Typical costs: Stamping and painting a pattern on a top coat of an asphalt driveway (new or existing) can cost $3 -$9 a square foot, or $900 -$2,700 for 12'x25' or $3,600 -$11,000 for 24'x50', depending on the size of the project; the exact pattern (s) and trim (s) chosen; the amount of pavement stamped; and the amount of prep work and resurfacing required. This is for just stamping the top coat of asphalt; building a stamped asphalt driveway from scratch can cost $5 -$12 a square foot, or about $1,500 -$3,600 for 12'x25' and $3,600 -$14,400 for 24'x50', depending on local rates, the site prep needed; and whether there are any slopes, curves or other challenges. For small jobs, there is often a minimum charge for getting the equipment and crew to the site, which can increase the per-square-foot price. For example, the Narragansett Improvement Co. [ 1] in Providence, RI estimates that stamping a pattern on asphalt costs $6 -$9 a square foot. Stamped Asphalt of Pittsburg [ 2] in Pennsylvania charges $3 a square foot for projects of 20,000 or more square feet (a two-lane driveway 24' wide and a quarter mile long is about 32,000 square feet); $4 per square foot for 10,000-20,000 square feet (a 12'-wide and quarter-mile-long drive is about 15,840 square feet); and gives individual estimates for projects less than 10,000 square feet. Paving contractors typically do not charge by the square foot, but instead quote their total price for a specific project. What should be included: A heater is used to soften the asphalt surface, then a pattern made of wire, rope or plastic is pushed into the softened asphalt using a reversible plate compactor."

It protects your driveway from the harmful effects of sun and harsh weather, which can lead to cracks, holes and erosion. Regular resealing eliminates or delays the need for more costly repaving. Asphalt driveways should be resealed about every one to three years, depending on the severity of your local climate. Concrete driveways are more durable, requiring resealing about every five years. Cost of Driveway Sealing Professional driveway resealing costs anywhere from about $0.10 to $0.25 per square foot. That works out to $100 to $250 for a 1,000-square-foot driveway.

"text": "\"Typical: $2-$5 a Square Foot 12'x50' Driveway: $1,200-$3,000+E-mail Post Tweet Comments (5)Asphalt is a common driveway material because of its relatively low price compared to concrete. It generally works better and is more popular in colder climates because it can crack with constant exposure to high temperatures. Typical costs: Cost Helper readers report paying $2,300 -$10,300 to install a new asphalt driveway or completely remove replace an old one, or $1.67 -$2.72 a square foot, with an average cost of $2.24 a square foot. Readers report paying $2,000 -$3,800 to door-to-door contractors to redo all or parts of an asphalt driveway, at $0.73 -$1.37 a square foot with an average of $1.17 a square foot. An asphalt driveway typically costs about $2 -$5 a square foot, $1,200 - $3,000 for a 12'x50' single-car driveway; or $25,000 -$50,000 for up to a quarter mile. Slopes, curves, odd shapes and other complications add to the total cost, and smaller jobs aren't necessarily cheaper because it costs the contractor a minimum amount to haul the asphalt heater, steamroller and other equipment to the site. Costs can go as low as $1 -$2 a square foot or less, particularly for repaving work by door-to-door hustlers claiming they have \"\"left over\"\" asphalt in their truck and will install it cheaply; many experts caution against this, because the quality of the work may be substandard, there's no way to find the company after the work is done and the \"\"left over\"\" asphalt may have cooled off too much, which affects its durability and quality. What should be included: Asphalt requires professional equipment and a trained crew. It can include removing topsoil and organic material or existing pavement; compacting the soil; installing geo-tech fabric if the soil is weak or drains poorly; laying a base; and applying 2\"\"-3\"\" of asphalt and compacting it.

The two greatest factors are the total area of the driveway and the region where you live. The cost of materials and labor vary widely from region or area of the country to another. Average Costs Per Square Foot Depending on the region of the country where you live the cost of a new asphalt paved driveway ranges from $2 to $5 per square foot installed as of 2013, with an average of around $3 to $4 per square foot. These prices include the cost of labor and the gravel base. The cost of a recycled asphalt driveway, a driveway where an old asphalt driveway is broken up and then reused to lay a new driveway, should be considerably less. Plain or Decorative It's possible to pave a driveway with patterned and colored asphalt.

One of the biggest perks of using asphalt to pave your driveway is that it’s an extremely affordable material that can offer a significant return on your initial investment – especially if you work to follow proper maintenance protocols. Before starting a major project like driveway construction, the majority of NJ homeowners want to know what they should expect in terms of the price. Foot for foot and pound for pound, how much is an asphalt driveway going to cost you, and how can you get the most bang for your buck? We’ve found that there are a few different factors that can influence the price and value of an asphalt-paved driveway. Factors that Impact Asphalt Costs When determining how much your asphalt driveway will cost you per square foot, you’ll need to consider that there are several different factors which can affect the price of the material and construction process: Scope & Size The size of your driveway will play a significant role in determining your expenses. A long, wide driveway will require more material, time and labor to install than a shorter path. In addition to affecting the initial construction costs, you should also consider that a larger area will require you to spend more on maintenance materials in the long term. Your Asphalt Supplier The asphalt manufacturer can also impact the price of your asphalt driveway. Unless you’re buying directly from a company that operates its own asphalt plant, you could end up paying more money than is necessary on the material, while also sacrificing quality."

RELATED: How to Hire a Concrete Driveway Contractor Sealing driveway cracks in concrete or asphalt In the U. S., concrete and asphalt account for 90 percent of driveways — and both crack and discolor over time. Driveway cracks result primarily from age and weather, especially in unsealed driveways. When water from snow or rain seeps through the asphalt or concrete, it creates pools of water underneath it, which lead to cracking, especially when that moisture freezes and thaws repeatedly. This seepage occurs because most driveways are made from porous materials. Driveway sealing closes off the pores so that water can't penetrate the paving material."

"text": "Home > Home Improvement > Landscaping > Cost to Seal a Driveway How Much Does Sealing an Asphalt Driveway Cost? Asphalt Sealing Prices Whether you want to keep your recently paved asphalt driveway looking brand new or extend the life of an older driveway, sealcoating is a worthwhile investment. Sealant forms a layer of protection on top of the driveway that reduces the deleterious effects of the elements and chemicals. In addition to preserving the driveway, a coat of sealant improves a home's curb appeal and value. Driveway Sealing Considerations The cosmetic and performance benefits of driveway sealing make this job practically a no-brainer. But the finer points of sealing, such as how often to do it, which products and application methods to use, and whether or not to hire a pro, aren't so obvious. Read on to find out the answers to some frequently asked driveway sealing questions. How Often Should I Seal my Driveway? The recommended interval for driveway sealing depends on your local climate. In areas that experience harsh winters, heavy precipitation, high temperatures, or frequent freeze-thaw cycles, sealing might be needed every year or two."

"text": "How Much Does It Cost to Install an Asphalt Driveway? It costs around $5,000 on average to haul away an old asphalt driveway and replace it with a new one. This is based on several factors. Replacing or repairing an asphalt driveway can add to your home’s curb appeal and improve its resale value. Although asphalt driveways don’t typically last as long as their concrete counterpart, they’re one of the most cost-effective options. RELATED: The Angie’s List Guide to Driveways“Typical life expectancy of an asphalt driveway is 15 years,” says Ron Reibling, owner of Aurora Asphalt & Sealcoating in Champlin, Minnesota. “ It really depends whether it’s maintained properly by sealcoating and crack filling. Without proper maintenance, the oils in the asphalt will oxidize out and lead to premature cracking from brittleness. ”In cases where the driveway is old and crumbling, it may be a better idea to hire a driveway contractor to replace it than to repair it. Many contractors say asphalt driveways need to be replaced between 15 and 25 years if properly maintained."

"text": "The average cost to pave an asphalt parking lot in South Jersey varies from market to market and is contingent on several factors listed below. The average cost in the South Jersey Market for a 50,000 sq ft parking lot ranges in price from $1.25 - $1.50 per square foot for a 1 ½” – 2” compacted overlay. Factors That Affect Price Of Paving a Parking Lot MILLING: If the parking lot severely cracked, has drainage issues or your curb reveal (Space from the current grade of asphalt to the top of the curb / sidewalk) is less than 6” your parking lot would benefit from asphalt milling where 1” – 3” of existing asphalt is grinded off the surface with a milling machine prior to paving. The cost of milling ranges from $0.25 - $0.60 per square foot. ALLIGATOR CRACKING: If the asphalt parking lot your are considering paving has extensive alligator cracking or underground water issues, it is advisable to install a geotextile paving fabric (Mirafi, Petro Mat, Glass Grid or equivalent) prior to installing the asphalt overlay. The paving fabric will prevent the alligator cracks from coming back up through the surface. The cost of paving fabric typically ranges from $0.14-$0.22 per square foot. LEVELING COURSE OR DRAINAGE CORRECTION: If the asphalt parking lot currently has extensive puddling or large areas of standing water from improper grade, you will want to correct these prior to paving. An asphalt leveling course can be installed prior to paving to shim any low spots or puddles. Using a laser grade system, elevations can be shot and the milling crew can be directed where to “profile mill” to manipulate the grade to promote positive drainage."

"text": "\"Determining Asphalt Paving Cost with an Asphalt Calculator Posted by Derek Patterson 9/18/14 9:00 AMTweet How Accurate and Reliable is an Online Asphalt Calculator? In the earliest stages of considering a project – especially a large project like an asphalt installation or refinishing - many people want to get a “gut check” as to what the budget will need to be to get the job done. There are many basic asphalt calculators available online. Are these are good place to start? Well, maybe. How to Use an Asphalt Calculator Basic Construction provides an online asphalt calculator to help customers get an initial grasp on their paving project. Our calculator takes into account the area and depth of the paving project, and calculates the necessary asphalt tonnage based on an industry standard of 148 pounds per cubic foot. Unless your paving project is a single, perfect square or rectangle, it can be challenging to produce a reasonable estimate of the area. Dividing the pavement area into simple geometric shapes and adding and subtracting these areas to the area to be paved can be a useful method for assessing area. The National Asphalt Pavement Association offers a useful resource for calculating the area of different geometric shapes on their website with a resource titled, “ How to Determine Quantities .”Yet the most you will get from the Basic Construction asphalt calculator (or any other) is an estimate of needed tonnage."

"text": "One of the challenges that many types of homeowners face is how to maintain a driveway for easy access to and from a garage or as a place to park vehicles outdoors. For those who want a more permanent solution than gravel, several paving options cover a range of price points. However, price isn't the only financial consideration when paving a driveway. Average Cost According to Metcalf Paving, the average cost of paving a driveway with asphalt is around $2 per square foot as of June 2011. However, if you also need the installers to remove an existing driveway that is damaged, this price can nearly triple. A top coating of oil and stones, which restores an old driveway without major damage, costs around $1 per square foot. According to the Concrete Pavers Guide, more elaborate paving options, such as hand-laid cobblestones, can cost as much as $50 per square foot, representing the high end of the cost spectrum for driveways. Price Factors Materials are one of the major factors in the cost of paving a driveway, with natural stone and brick incurring significantly higher material and labor costs than basic asphalt paving. In addition, the size of your driveway will play a role in determining your total cost. At $2 per square foot, a driveway that is 10-feet wide and 40-feet long will cost $800 to pave, but if the driveway is 100 feet long this will rise to $2,000 for the complete job."

Fortunately, the tar and chip method provides a reasonably priced, eye-appealing way to seal driveways with low cost long-term maintenance. Tar and chip paving combines asphalt and stone to create a textured, hard surface. The end result is a driveway that provides more texture than plain asphalt and better traction in slick conditions. Although tar and chip driveways are typically installed by professionals, do-it-yourself enthusiasts equipped with the proper equipment and knowledge will be able to complete the process independently. Tar and chip driveways cost less to maintain than traditional asphalt surfaces. Step 1Select the color and style of gravel chips that will be installed as the top layer of the tar and chip surface. Purchase about two-and-a-half tons of gravel chips for every 100 square yards of area that will be treated with tar and chip. Arrange for the gravel to be delivered prior to installing the surface. Gather the required materials and equipment at the work site prior to beginning the tar and chip process."

"text": "Stamping Top Coat of Asphalt: $3-$9 a Square Foot New Stamped Asphalt Driveway: $5-$12+ a Square Foot E-mail Post Tweet Compared to concrete, pavers, bricks or stone, basic asphalt is a durable and relatively low-cost driveway paving material. It is also uniformly dark black and, to some people, dull and uninspired. To give it a more dramatic and upscale appearance, asphalt in a driveway, walkway or patio area can be stamped and colored to look like bricks or pavers. Typical costs: Stamping and painting a pattern on a top coat of an asphalt driveway (new or existing) can cost $3 -$9 a square foot, or $900 -$2,700 for 12'x25' or $3,600 -$11,000 for 24'x50', depending on the size of the project; the exact pattern (s) and trim (s) chosen; the amount of pavement stamped; and the amount of prep work and resurfacing required. This is for just stamping the top coat of asphalt; building a stamped asphalt driveway from scratch can cost $5 -$12 a square foot, or about $1,500 -$3,600 for 12'x25' and $3,600 -$14,400 for 24'x50', depending on local rates, the site prep needed; and whether there are any slopes, curves or other challenges. For small jobs, there is often a minimum charge for getting the equipment and crew to the site, which can increase the per-square-foot price. For example, the Narragansett Improvement Co. [ 1] in Providence, RI estimates that stamping a pattern on asphalt costs $6 -$9 a square foot. Stamped Asphalt of Pittsburg [ 2] in Pennsylvania charges $3 a square foot for projects of 20,000 or more square feet (a two-lane driveway 24' wide and a quarter mile long is about 32,000 square feet); $4 per square foot for 10,000-20,000 square feet (a 12'-wide and quarter-mile-long drive is about 15,840 square feet); and gives individual estimates for projects less than 10,000 square feet. Paving contractors typically do not charge by the square foot, but instead quote their total price for a specific project. What should be included: A heater is used to soften the asphalt surface, then a pattern made of wire, rope or plastic is pushed into the softened asphalt using a reversible plate compactor."

Before starting a major project like driveway construction, the majority of NJ homeowners want to know what they should expect in terms of the price. Foot for foot and pound for pound, how much is an asphalt driveway going to cost you, and how can you get the most bang for your buck? We’ve found that there are a few different factors that can influence the price and value of an asphalt-paved driveway. Factors that Impact Asphalt Costs When determining how much your asphalt driveway will cost you per square foot, you’ll need to consider that there are several different factors which can affect the price of the material and construction process: Scope & Size The size of your driveway will play a significant role in determining your expenses. A long, wide driveway will require more material, time and labor to install than a shorter path. In addition to affecting the initial construction costs, you should also consider that a larger area will require you to spend more on maintenance materials in the long term. Your Asphalt Supplier The asphalt manufacturer can also impact the price of your asphalt driveway. Unless you’re buying directly from a company that operates its own asphalt plant, you could end up paying more money than is necessary on the material, while also sacrificing quality."

"text": "Have you ever walked through a parking lot and noticed loose rocks and debris? If so, the asphalt may have been raveling right under your feet! Raveling is known as the deterioration of pavement by the loss of asphalt and rocks. This is evident by the rocks and sand on the pavement surface and in gutters. Over a period of time, the thickness of the pavement begins to dwindle away, until the entire pavement has eroded completely. What are the main causes of raveling? Dust Coating: The aggregate particles can cause a layer of dust to form on top of the pavement, which the asphalt binder then bonds with instead of the aggregate. Aggregate Segregation: Pavement is layered with aggregate, which is made up of different sized rocks that are crushed and screened. The aggregate provides a packing structure, and when spaced adequately, it also provides necessary air voids. The aggregate matrix needs fine particles, and if these are missing, the asphalt binder has only a few contact points to bind the coarse particles that still remain."

"text": "\"The finest silk fibers, and most of what we use today, are produced by \"\"cultivated\"\" silkworms grown in a controlled environment. The worms are fed a diet of mulberry leaves and increase their body size 10,000 times in their short life span. Once the cocoon is spun and before the worm hatches through the silk into a moth, the cocoon is soaked in hot water then unraveled, producing filaments that can be up to a mile long in size. The raw silk is then processed to remove the sericin - the natural \"\"gum\"\" that protects the fibers and causes them to stick to each other as the cocoon was spun. Silk is a protein fiber, similar to wool or to human hair. It is only natural for silks to have some irregularities – sometimes called \"\"slubs\"\". This is the nature of the 100% silk fabric. Silk that has been processed can be woven or knit into a variety of fabrics. Silk will shrink, so if you are using it to construct clothing, be sure to preshrink it. Silk often has a wonderful feel, (referred to as a \"\"hand\"\"), and an almost iridescent sheen that makes us think of luxury."

Milling removes anywhere from just enough thickness to level and smooth the surface to a full depth removal. There are a number of different reasons for milling a paved area instead of simply repaving over the existing surface. Contents [ hide ]1 Purpose1.1 Specialty2 Types3 Process and machinery4 Micro milling5 References Purpose [ edit]Recycling of the road surface is one of the main reasons for milling a road surface. Milling is widely used for pavement recycling today, where the pavement is removed and ground up to be used as the aggregate in new pavement. [ 1] For asphalt surfaces the product of milling is reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP), which can be recycled in the asphalt hot mix asphalt (pavement) by combining with new aggregate and asphalt cement (binder) or a recycling agent. [ 1] This reduces the impact that resurfacing has on the environment. Milling can also remove distresses from the surface, providing a better driving experience and/or longer roadway life. Some of the issues that milling can remove include: [2]Raveling: aggregate becoming separated from the binder and loose on the road [3]Bleeding: the binder (asphalt) coming up to the surface of the road [4]Rutting: formation of low spots in pavement along the direction of travel usually in the wheel path [5]Shoving: a washboard like effect transverse to the direction of travel [5]Ride quality: uneven road surface such as swells, bumps, sags, or depressions [2]Damage: resulting from accidents and/or fires [6]It can also be used to control or change the height of part or all of the road. This can be done to control heights and clearances of other road structures such as: curb reveals, manhole and catch basin heights, shoulder and guardrail heights, and overhead clearances. ["

Like any good craftsman, it is important we have a good grasp of the materials... Asphalt pavement is known for its durability and resilience. It is this strength which makes asphalt pavement the best option for most all paved surfaces. Most state and federal governments highly prefer asphalt pavement because of its reliability and lasting life. If it is properly laid, it need not be replaced for twenty to twenty five years. Asphalt pavement is also the most popular choice for applications such as driveways, parking lots, roadways, airstrips and more. Asphalt is everywhere. Asphalt is also the most commonly recycled material in the United States—before paper or plastic! Approximately 80% of all asphalt pavement is recycled when it is removed. Without question, if you are looking for lasting pavement for these applications, and one that can be used over and over again, asphalt pavement is the best choice."

The treatment — consisting of one or two pills a day for 12 weeks — has an overall cure rate of 90 percent, researchers announced Friday. \"\" We're very excited for our patients,\"\" said Dr. Michael Charlton, the medical director of the liver transplantation program at IMC and a principal investigator of the study . \"\" It's an emotional thing when a patient has been struggling with hepatitis C, sometimes for decades, and they find they're cured of it,\"\" he added. The new treatment eradicates the hepatitis C virus from the body and can even restore liver function in some patients. The virus, as far as researchers can tell, does not recur — a \"\"true cure\"\" in the words of Robin Kim, the executive medical director of the transplant program at the University of Utah. Up until five years ago, hepatitis C was considered to have no cure. For many patients, \"\"the prospect of being told that they can have their hepatitis C virus cured is something they've never heard of,\"\" Kim said. The blood-borne illness, most commonly spread through dirty needles, shows no symptoms at first. But for many patients, the virus eventually begins to attack the liver, causing liver disease, scarring, cancer and sometimes death."

"text": "posted on December 5, 2017Asphalt ● General Tips New asphalt needs time to cool before you allow traffic on it, which is known as “asphalt curing time.” Unlike concrete which “cures” in the first few days of installation, new asphalt can be driven on as soon as it’s rolled and cool. Too many variables exist to give an exact amount of time your parking lot or road will be closed. Some of the variables that impact asphalt curing time are:the type of asphalt repairthe ground temperaturethe air temperaturethe size of the rollers used However, if there is any practical way to keep your new asphalt from being driven on the day it’s laid, it’s best to wait until the next morning. What Happens During Asphalt Curing? The curing involves the asphalt oil. When asphalt is first placed, it is black in color. As the new asphalt ages, it slowly turns from a black color to more of a gray color. This is because your new asphalt is slowly losing its oils due to the sun, a process called “oxidation.” This oxidation is actually a good thing as new asphalt has too much oil in it when first placed."

For example, asphalt surfaces can begin to crack over time, especially if the foundation wasn’t perfect, but thankfully, there are options when asphalt needs to be repaired. For starters, you can choose to simply patch the areas that are in poor condition and fill the cracks that have appeared. Another option is repairing the area, which would entail ripping out the old asphalt and reconstructing the foundation. Asphalt resurfacing, however, is a simply a layer of asphalt, usually one to three inches thick, that is laid on top of the existing asphalt, creating a new appearance.“ Asphalt road ” ( CC BY-SA 2.0 ) by matsuyuki How much does asphalt resurfacing cost?"

It has the aesthetic finish to satisfy even the most challenging domestic application. This type of driveway is often installed for the added beauty it can bring to any home. It can resolve both the aesthetic and cost for your new driveway. Most people chose a tar and chip driveway for its great quality and low cost, low maintenance features. What is Tar & Chip Paving? Tar & chip paving (which is also referred to as chip sealing), is very similar to asphalt, as it is a combination of hot liquid asphalt cement, liquid A/C (or hot tar if you prefer) as a binder and gravel as the main structural component. Unlike asphalt, which is premixed at an asphalt plant, the components are delivered separately and mixed on the jobsite. Tar & chip is nothing new, its has been used for over 100 years, all over the world, with great success, to pave and resurface roads, parking lots, residential driveways, etc. and is used by county and DOT road crews on road paving projects, in virtually every state in America."

It protects your driveway from the harmful effects of sun and harsh weather, which can lead to cracks, holes and erosion. Regular resealing eliminates or delays the need for more costly repaving. Asphalt driveways should be resealed about every one to three years, depending on the severity of your local climate. Concrete driveways are more durable, requiring resealing about every five years.

Since each job will be unique, the prices will widely vary.“ Tennis Court ” ( CC BY-SA 2.0 ) by Bill David Brooks How much does a tennis court cost? The price of having a tennis court built, on average, can range anywhere from as little as $15,000 for a simple concrete court with no accessories to as much as $80,000+ for a customized court that needs more prep than other jobs. The price can be all over the place since there’s so much involved. The court’s materials, the accessories, additions, and extras can all affect the costs.

The installation begins by grading the site with the proper fall for water removal with a laser guided moter grader. Match Point Tennis will then install a vapor barrier over the sub base and set wooden forms around the perimeter of the tennis court pad. Fence posts are then set prior to the concrete pour. The tensioning cables are then laid going both directions on the court, which will appear in a grid like pattern. The cables are then set on chairs, which are used to elevate the cables so they are not lying on the vapor barrier and will go through the middle of the concrete depth for support. The next step is pouring the concrete and completing the concrete finishing work. The concrete then needs to cure for a minimum of 28 days or until it reaches the proper strength to tension the cables."

Chip sealing is a coating of hot applied liquid asphalt emulsions. The second step is to imbed crushed rock chips in the surface. The top surface of stone is left free of asphalt so the black asphalt is covered and the rock is the only color that shows. This result in a wearing course of rock glued in place by the asphalt coating applied over the base pavement. The rock selected controls the final driveway color. The end result is a thick layer of asphalt and a layer of fine crushed rock over the existing pavement. These two components work together for years to provide a protective layer that defends against water penetration into the base material, frost heaves and asphalt oxidation. This treatment creates long lasting durable driveway."

You can, however, opt for fiberglass shingles instead. A hot climate is brutal for residential roofs.

From the across the sweltering South to the sunny Florida Keys, selecting the right shingles for your home can be tricky.

Coating a flat or low-sloped roof is a common way to extend the life of your roof while cutting down on cooling costs. Apply roof coatings to low-slope and flat roofs in both residential and commercial settings. They are both a stand-alone roofing or a topcoat for pre-installed materials. It adds an extra layer of waterproofing, increases fire resistance and lowers cooling costs by reflecting heat. It also provides a layer of durability from chemical corrosion and physical abrasion.

Asphalt and Fiberglass Shingles Roof shingles are available in asphalt compositions, which are covered in crushed stone or fiberglass. Asphalt shingles are inexpensive, low-maintenance and easy to install, but tend to be less resistant to wind and strong rain than other materials. The average lifespan of asphalt shingles ranges from 20 to 40 years depending on the manufacturer, although many warranties only guarantee between 15 and 25 years. Fiberglass shingles are more expensive, but can last more than 50 years. Wood Shingles and Shakes Wood shingles and shakes are typically made from pressure-treated wood or cedar and are more expensive than asphalt shingles. This type of roofing requires periodic maintenance, but is available in natural or pre-stained and aged finishes, which give your roof a weathered look.

"text": "Your roof and your home insurance Jay Mac Donald @omnisaurus November 12, 2013 in Insurance To a home insurance company, the roof is the most important part of your house. Why? Because it’s the gateway to far greater damage claims once it’s breached. “The roof is the first layer that wind, hail, wildfire and other hazards really begin to act on,” says Tim Reinhold, chief engineer at the Insurance Institute for Business and Home Safety, an independent, nonprofit research organization based in Tampa, Fla. “In more than 90 percent of hail or high-wind claims, there is a payout relative to the roof cover. ”With insurance, a lot rides on your roof Because insurers have a vested interest in your roof, they price your home insurance accordingly, based on the soundness of its construction and what it will cost them to replace it. Note also that premium incentives and disincentives for roof types vary widely by company and location. “If you live near a wildfire zone, you pay a lot if your roof is (made of) cedar shakes compared to asphalt shingles that are flame-retardant, or a metal roof that doesn’t burn,” says Robert Hunter, director of insurance for the Consumer Federation of America. “ Some companies won’t even insure certain roof types, such as wood shakes, in high fire-risk areas. ”Hunter says to check with your home insurance agent or broker before you build or replace your roof to see what impact your roofing type might have on your premium. “ Companies are moving more and more toward ‘actual cash value’ coverage for a roof and not paying the full replacement cost,” he adds."

"text": "\"The expected lifespan of an architectural asphalt shingle roof, often called a dimensional shingle roof, is 24 to 30 years in Florida. Architectural shingles start with a heavier mat base than a standard 3-tab shingle, typically fiberglass that has been coated with asphalt. Multiple layers are then overlapped and laminated together to create the distinctive texture. The finished product weighs about 100-lbs. more per “square” (a roofer’s term for 100 square feet of roof area) than regular shingles. Builders also like them because minor imperfections in the roof deck are concealed by the texture. If you currently have a regular shingle roof, most realtors we know recommend upgrading to architectural shingles when it’s time for a roof replacement, because of the all-important curb-appeal boost it gives an older home. The lifespan estimate is based on “average” conditions, and many factors contribute to a longer or shorter life of the roof. So a particular shingle roof’s life can vary—sometimes significantly—from the average. Here’s a list of conditions that affect roof longevity:• Color of roof - A dark roof absorbs more heat, which shortens the lifespan.• Angle of roof slope - Higher pitch roofs tend to last longer."

Selecting the right roof design can make a big difference in the final outlook of your building. If you are looking for a roofing system that is sturdy, long lasting and at the same time cost effective, your best bet is a composition shingle roof. WHAT IS A COMPOSITION SHINGLE ROOFA composition shingle has an outer layer made from an asphalt composition and the underneath part of the shingle, which lies against the roofing felt on the roof sheathing, is made of a fiberglass matting. The exposed side is often coated with colored granules. Composition shingles are one of the most preferred choices for roofing because of the combination of the properties of asphalt and fiberglass, such as durability and lightweight respectively, making them suitable for most roofing applications and climatic conditions. A Composition shingle roof or three-tab asphalt shingle is suitable whether you are undertaking a new construction or remodeling an existing one, because it adds to the overall quality and aesthetic beauty of your building while being affordable. This is in addition to its ability to hold up under different weather conditions over a long period of time. A Composition shingle roof’s lifespan is between 20 to 30 years. ADVANTAGES OF A COMPOSITION SHINGLE ROOFLow initial cost: The cost per square foot of composition slate roof shingles is lower when compared to other roofing options."

"text": "How long will a metal roof last? Posted by P. Gilbert from Lansing, Michigan How much longer will a metal roof last than common roofing like asphalt or wood shingle?1 Expert Answer Answer by Joe Miller You can expect a metal roof to last at least 2 to 3 times longer than a regular roof. In general terms, count on a metal roof lasting 40 to 60 years and beyond. To put it in context, the average life span of an asphalt roof is 12 to 20 years. That lifespan can be shorter depending on the pitch of your roof and the climate in your area. Made of oil impregnated paper or fiberglass, asphalt begins to deteriorate as soon as you expose it to normal weather. A metal roof, however, will never decompose. Other roofing materials like wood shingle, shake and tile have varying degrees of weather-related problems that lead to breakdown. Wood shingle and shake roofs often need replacement before twenty years. Concrete tile roofs can crack and warp in the freeze/thaw cycle of more northern climates."

There are few cool roof options for gravel roofs and even less for a flat gravel roof. The only difference between low slope and flat roofing is the pitch or the slope of the roof while the flat roofing is plainly flat. Installation Cost Compared with the steeped sloped roofs, a low slope or a flat roof technically needs less material to build. The most common type of residential roof is a steep slope roof. Structural metal roofing is broken down into low slope and steep slope categories. Standing seam metal roofs should be installed over a properly prepared roof deck. In most retrofit projects, standing seam roofs can be installed right over existing built-up roofs, eliminating costly and time-consuming tear-offs. A standing seam metal roof can be installed on a low slope roof of no less than 1 in 12 pitch. There was a time when roofs were merely installed and, after leaking, were torn off and re-roofed."

The type of roof, type of sealant used, the condition of your current roof, and your location all affect price. Coating a flat or low-sloped roof is a common way to extend the life of your roof while cutting down on cooling costs. Apply roof coatings to low-slope and flat roofs in both residential and commercial settings. They are both a stand-alone roofing or a topcoat for pre-installed materials. It adds an extra layer of waterproofing, increases fire resistance and lowers cooling costs by reflecting heat. It also provides a layer of durability from chemical corrosion and physical abrasion.

Cost to install roof shingles will vary somewhat, depending on: Size of roof, which determines number of roofing squares (1 square = 100² ft) needed to cover How many stories your house has Roof style and degree of pitch Whether the existing roof must be removed prior to installing new roof shingles -- as when it's badly waterlogged or damaged, made of certain materials, or already 2 layers thick Complexity of the roof installation or repair Quality of the shingles Learn about Asphalt Shingles Asphalt shingles are the most popular roofing material in the US. They offer many advantages: affordable price; uncomplicated installation; and a wide variety of colors, styles, and qualities. Their disadvantages include the need for regular maintenance and repair, and the shingles' vulnerability to damage by extremely hot weather or heavy winds. There are 2 types, organic and fiberglass. The durable organic type is made of paper saturated with asphalt (a petroleum derivative) and then coated with ceramic granules. Despite the name, though, organic asphalt shingles are less green than the alternative."

"text": "Asphalt shingles have been a popular roofing choice for several years due to their cost and relatively simple installation. They are comprised of a paper or fiberglass mat coated with asphalt. Composition or composite shingles are a newer product gaining in popularity. A variety of materials goes into their manufacture. The combination of these materials allows for a stronger and more durable shingle. Composite shingles are made from a variety of materials. Ingredients Asphalt shingles come in two forms: organic and fiberglass (also known as glass fiber). Organic asphalt shingles have a paper mat or backing with a layer of asphalt added on top. Fiberglass asphalt shingles contain a mat made of fiberglass with a layer of asphalt added on top. Composition shingles are made from materials such as asphalt or asbestos, tar paper, slate, shake, laminate and wood."

While this is a widely touted fact, many people do not fully understand just how green the Asphalt is ‘green’ for many reasons. Firstly, asphalt is not a throwaway product. Whether asphalt roadways are one year old or 60 years old, the asphalt is able to be milled, or removed, from the road, ground, and black stuff is integrated right back into the new mix. This procedure saves on oil costs, reduces virgin aggregate needs, and creates a cycle in which asphalt is never dumped in a land fill or discarded. It can always be reused. This is good not only for the consumer, but for the environment too. Asphalt is green not just because it uses old asphalt in the production of new, but because other waste products are able to be integrated into the mix. Shingles and ground tire rubber are able to be integrated into asphalt. This reduces the virgin material need while providing an incredibly useful home for materials that would otherwise find themselves in landfills."

For the average residential architect on the other hand, would likely say metal. Heaven only knows what a home owner would choose—asphalt, metal, slate, clay, concrete—or if they’ll even care at all. Most home owners care mostly about price, and don’t seem to care as much about material, as long as the roof functions properly and will last a little while into the foreseeable future. Now, production builders care about looks and function, too, but affordability is definitely top of mind, and architects, they want a roof to function well, but they are mostly concerned that it be aesthetically pleasing. If you were to ask a roofing contractor who deals in both metal and shingle, you would probably get this answer. Metal is best, but shingle is King. Metal will hands down outlast a shingle roof, virtually maintenance free, but can cost 2 to 3 times the cost of a shingle roof. As where shingle roofs today have warranties that can rival the best metal roofs, the material is easy to find, easy to install, easy to maintain, and let’s not forget, easy on your wallet too!Indeed, asphalt is easy to install and produces a decent-looking roof, but most architects, builders and contractors say the product is still King mainly because it’s economical."

Despite these differences, there are several pros and cons driving some homeowners to stick with the asphalt shingles and others to make the change to concrete. One of the reasons for the continued popularity of asphalt shingles, despite other more efficient materials, is price. You can buy asphalt shingles from $1.15 to $1.75 per square foot, depending on the region you live in and the brand name of the shingles. Concrete tiles cost $5.00 to $6.50 per square foot.

Rob Sabo | Improvement Center Columnist | December 6, 2012If you are considering re-roofing your home, your investment in roofing materials has a direct correlation to how long you can expect your new roof to last. The longest-lasting roofing products are inherently extremely durable, such as concrete, clay or slate tiles and significantly outperform other natural products like wood shakes. Manufactured roofing materials -- asphalt shingles, metal roofing -- have a good lifespan but are not as durable. It's also important to keep in mind that regional weather conditions, the design of your building, amount of routine maintenance and the quality of the roofing products you purchase play crucial roles in determining the life expectancy of roofing materials. New roofing: How long do products last? According to the National Association of Home Builders, most roofing products are designed to last a minimum of several decades under normal weather conditions. Here's a closer look at how the NAHB rates the longevity of different roofing materials: Asphalt shingles -- Typically, asphalt shingles last about 20 years; however, higher-quality asphalt shingles are warrantied for up to 50 years. Expect to pay more for a premium, long-life product. Architectural asphalt -- These products last about 30 years on average."

Below are some tips for making the calculations yourself, or you can use our roofing calculator. Calculate a Roof's Area To calculate the area of your roof, you need to multiply the length and width of your roof to get a rough estimate.

"text": "\"Metal Roofing Cost vs. Asphalt Shingles: Metal Roof Prices 2017-201846 Replies If you are a homeowner considering installing a new metal roof on your house, then undoubtedly, one of the burning questions on your mind is how much will it cost? On average, you can expect to pay between $5.50 and $12.00 per square foot of metal roofing installed. Granted, this is a pretty wide pricing range, but you can expect a metal shingle roof to average between $7.00 to $10.00 per square foot installed, while a standing seam metal roof will cost between $9.00 to $12.00 per square foot installed. Now, assuming the average cost of $10.00 per square foot of metal roofing installed on an average-sized roof, it will cost about $17,000 to install approximately 17 squares or 1,700 square feet of metal roofing on a typical house. The low-end cost for steel shingles installed over-top of the existing roof would be around $14,500 for the same roof, while the high-end cost of aluminum standing seam would be about $19,500 for a comparable roof.

Important Points to Keep in Mind: When it comes to residential metal roofing, you are not only paying more for a higher quality material than asphalt shingle, but you are also paying for a more costly, professional installation that requires specialized skills, expertise, and equipment.

Perhaps one of the most popular types of wood used is cedar because it is relatively budget-friendly, durable, and long-lasting. With proper maintenance, these roofs last for around 30 years, but eventually they must be replaced because they may begin to rot, split and leak.

It's also top-notch, in terms of quality, durability, fire-resistance, appearance and, to be technically precise, architectural awesomeness. Does all that mean slate is totally out of reach? For most homeowners, absolutely. But it's just possible that installing a slate roof can be more affordable than you might think. However, perhaps a better question to ask is, do you even want slate to be more affordable? A slate roof should be a once-in-a-lifetime investment (not counting maintenance costs) that potentially pays off for generations. When you think of it that way, cutting corners on materials or workmanship isn't exactly a timeless idea. How Roofing is Priced Most roofing materials and installation are roughly priced by the square, which is 100 square feet of installed roofing. It's important to note \"\"installed,\"\" because with shingle-style roofing more than half of the raw material is hidden, due to the overlap between rows, or courses, of shingles."

Rob Sabo | Improvement Center Columnist | December 6, 2012If you are considering re-roofing your home, your investment in roofing materials has a direct correlation to how long you can expect your new roof to last. The longest-lasting roofing products are inherently extremely durable, such as concrete, clay or slate tiles and significantly outperform other natural products like wood shakes. Manufactured roofing materials -- asphalt shingles, metal roofing -- have a good lifespan but are not as durable. It's also important to keep in mind that regional weather conditions, the design of your building, amount of routine maintenance and the quality of the roofing products you purchase play crucial roles in determining the life expectancy of roofing materials. New roofing: How long do products last? According to the National Association of Home Builders, most roofing products are designed to last a minimum of several decades under normal weather conditions. Here's a closer look at how the NAHB rates the longevity of different roofing materials: Asphalt shingles -- Typically, asphalt shingles last about 20 years; however, higher-quality asphalt shingles are warrantied for up to 50 years. Expect to pay more for a premium, long-life product. Architectural asphalt -- These products last about 30 years on average."

Proper Steps to Shingle a House Roof How to Calculate the Roof Area Using the Building Square Footage & the Pitch of the Roof How to Figure Roof Area Without the Pitch The cost of reshingling a roof depends on many factors, but the two biggest factors are the type of shingle you select and the area of the roof measured in squares. A square refers to an area of 100 square feet. All roofing materials are priced and sold by the square. The design of the roof also plays a role in estimating cost because some designs add to waste, so always add 10 to 15 percent to the estimated squares needed. Types of Shingles and Cost Per Square When it comes to choosing a shingle to install or have installed on your roof, you have many materials to choose from. Although asphalt is the most common type of shingle used, you can choose from fiberglass, wood, slate, tile and a variety of other materials. The cost per square runs the gamut from approximately $160 to $341 per square for asphalt shingles to approximately $800 to $900 per square for slate, with all other materials falling somewhere in-between. Estimating Total Squares This is the trickiest part of estimating the cost to reshingle a roof because you have to factor in the rise.

Asphalt Shingle Roof Prices Asphalt shingles are the most popular roofing material in the United States. In fact, if you drive around a typical residential neighborhood, approximately three out of four homes you pass will have asphalt shingle roofing. The popularity of asphalt roofs, also known as composition roofs, stems from their cost effectiveness and performance. While materials such as slate and tile may last significantly longer than asphalt, their high price tag makes them unrealistic for the majority of homeowners. Furthermore, technological advancements have resulted in asphalt shingles that are more attractive, longer lasting, and better for the environment. To learn more about asphalt roofing shingles, including how much you can expect to pay for them, continue reading. Asphalt Shingles: An Overview Asphalt roof shingles have three main components: the base (also called a felt, mat, or substrate), an asphalt coating, and a weather-resistant topcoat made from mineral granules. The shingle base provides it with structure and strength, the asphalt lends a degree of weatherability and stability, and the surface granules give a shingle its color in addition to ultraviolet ray protection.

"text": "\"Metal Roofing Cost vs. Asphalt Shingles: Metal Roof Prices 2017-201846 Replies If you are a homeowner considering installing a new metal roof on your house, then undoubtedly, one of the burning questions on your mind is how much will it cost? On average, you can expect to pay between $5.50 and $12.00 per square foot of metal roofing installed. Granted, this is a pretty wide pricing range, but you can expect a metal shingle roof to average between $7.00 to $10.00 per square foot installed, while a standing seam metal roof will cost between $9.00 to $12.00 per square foot installed. Now, assuming the average cost of $10.00 per square foot of metal roofing installed on an average-sized roof, it will cost about $17,000 to install approximately 17 squares or 1,700 square feet of metal roofing on a typical house. The low-end cost for steel shingles installed over-top of the existing roof would be around $14,500 for the same roof, while the high-end cost of aluminum standing seam would be about $19,500 for a comparable roof.

Important Points to Keep in Mind: When it comes to residential metal roofing, you are not only paying more for a higher quality material than asphalt shingle, but you are also paying for a more costly, professional installation that requires specialized skills, expertise, and equipment.

Aspiration can cause pneumonia, or lung infection which causes shortness of breath, and lead to other infections and possibly death. There are numerous reasons for aspiration and it is best to treat the cause of the aspiration. Symptoms of aspiration include: Coughing while eating Sensation that food or saliva travels down “the wrong pipe” Frequent pneumonias Evaluation for aspiration includes: Laryngoscopy and stroboscopy – The treating physician should ensure that a vocal fold paralysis or any other anatomic conditions are not the cause of aspiration. A swallowing study including a modified barium swallow study or a flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing may be performed to confirm the diagnosis of aspiration. During a modified barium swallow study, swallowed contents may be seen to travel between the vocal folds into the lungs. During flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing colored food products may be seen to travel into the trachea. Treatment of aspiration may include: Dietary changes – Thicker foods such as applesauce are easier to swallow and more difficult to aspirate than thin liquids such as water. Adding thickener to foods may make it easier to swallow. Swallowing therapy – a speech pathologist works with a patient to strengthen the muscles of swallowing and teach good habits during eating that may minimize aspiration."

Having this condition can make it difficult to climb stairs, rise from a seated position, lift objects or reach overhead. Polymyositis most commonly affects adults in their 30s, 40s or 50s. It's more common in blacks than in whites, and women are affected more often than men. Signs and symptoms usually develop gradually, over weeks or months. While there is no cure for polymyositis, treatment — ranging from medications to physical therapy — can improve your muscle strength and function. Symptoms The muscle weakness associated with polymyositis involves the muscles closest to the trunk, such as those in your hips, thighs, shoulders, upper arms and neck. The weakness affects both the left and right sides of your body, and tends to gradually worsen. When to see a doctor Seek medical attention if you develop unexplained muscle weakness. Request an Appointment at Mayo Clinic Causes The exact cause of polymyositis is unknown, but the disease shares many characteristics with autoimmune disorders, in which your immune system mistakenly attacks your own body tissues."

"text": "What is aspiration pneumonia? Aspiration pneumonia is a complication of pulmonary aspiration. Pulmonary aspiration is when you inhale food, stomach acid, or saliva into your lungs. You can also aspirate food that travels back up from your stomach to your esophagus. All of these things may carry bacteria that affect your lungs. Healthy lungs can clear up on their own. If they don’t, pneumonia can develop as a complication. Symptoms What are the symptoms of aspiration pneumonia? Someone with aspiration pneumonia may show symptoms of poor oral hygiene and throat clearing or wet coughing after eating. Other symptoms of this condition include:chest painshortness of breathwheezingfatigueblue discoloration of the skincough, possibly with green sputum, blood, or a foul odordifficulty swallowingbad breathexcessive sweating Anyone exhibiting these symptoms should contact their doctor."

"text": "Classifying the Different Types of Pneumonia23162,542 views Story at-a-glance Pneumonia cases can differ from each other because of many other factors that come into play One way to classify a pneumonia case is to know where you got infected with the pneumonia-causing bacteria, virus or germ Did you know that there are 30 or more known causes of pneumonia? 1 Because of this, pneumonia cases can differ from each other because of many other factors that come into play. Types of Pneumonia According to the Illness-Causing Agent A factor that has to be taken into consideration is the main agent that causes the infection. These are just some of the main groups of pneumonia based on what ignites the disease: 2• Bacterial pneumonia: commonly caused by bacteria strains such as Streptococcus pneumoniae, Chlamydophila pneumonia or Legionella pneumophila. 3This affects people of all ages, 4 leading to a weakened ability of the body to exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide, breathlessness and pain when you try to take in oxygen. 5Bacterial pneumonia cases can be mild or severe, depending on the strength of the bacteria strain and how long until the disease is diagnosed and treated. 6• Viral pneumonia: triggered by viruses such as influenza, chickenpox, adenoviruses or respiratory syncytial virus. 7 You can catch viral pneumonia via coughing, sneezing or touching an object that was contaminated by an infected person. A patient with viral pneumonia doesn’t just have swollen lungs, but blocked oxygen flow as well. 8Viral pneumonia is said to be responsible for one-third of all pneumonia cases."

Cats who suffer from decreased function of the esophagus are more likely to succumb to aspiration pneumonia. Aspiration pneumonia in cats has a number of causes. Read on to learn more. Causes of Feline Aspiration Pneumonia Aspiration pneumonia happens when your cat inhales a foreign substance. The presence of foreign debris inside the lungs makes your cat more vulnerable to lung infection. Some types of debris, such as stomach acids, can even damage your cat's lungs. Any disorder that affects your cat's esophageal function can lead to aspiration pneumonia, since these disorders make it hard for your cat to swallow food. Cleft palate and other conditions that affect the mouth and throat can raise your cat's risk of aspiration pneumonia. Nervous disorders, such as polyneuropathy, or muscular disorders, like polymyopathy, can lead to aspiration pneumonia."

Chronic or semi permanent cough is a symptom of acid reflux, and is commonly experienced by many suffers.   However, many people don’t realize that a chronic cough can be caused by or exacerbated by acid reflux, leading a an acid reflux cough. ÂHow does acid reflux result in coughing?  When acid flows back up the esophagus, the esophagus reflexes which results in a spasm of the airways that can lead to shortness of breath and/or coughing.   A cough can also result when certain nerves within the esophagus related to the lungs are irritated, which triggers coughing.  Thus, acid reflux can cause coughing without ever passing into the throat. It is not uncommon for a cough to be the only acid reflux symptom a person experiences. Those who suffer from chronic cough usually have frequent cases of reflux that are so severe that they can experience…Throat and larynx inflammation and damage – If refluxed acid enters the throat and voice box it can cause inflammation which can lead to swelling of the throat tissue.  The inflammation and swelling can result in a sore throat and hoarsens, causing coughing."

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

Pneumonia Definition Pneumonia is an infection of the lung that can be caused by nearly any class of organism known to cause human infections. These include bacteria, amoebae, viruses, fungi, and parasites. In the United States, pneumonia is the sixth most common disease leading to death; 2 million Americans develop pneumonia each year, and 40,000-70,000 die from it. Pneumonia is also themost common fatal infection acquired by already hospitalized patients. In developing countries,pneumonia ties with diarrhea as the most common cause of death. Even in nonfatal cases,pneumonia is a significant economic burden on the health care system. One study estimatesthat people in the American workforce who develop pneumonia cost employers five times as much in health care as the average worker. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), however, the number of deaths from pneumonia in the United States has declined slightly since 2001.

"text": "Pulmonary aspiration treatment Definition Most cases of witnessed or otherwise recent aspiration of oropharyngeal or gastric contents associated with a new pulmonary infiltrate represent an acute chemical pneumonitis rather than an infection. These cases usually resolve without antimicrobial therapy, with deep breathing and coughing, or with chest physiotherapy, when required. There is no convincing evidence that early administration of antimicrobials decreases subsequent incidences of complicating bacterial pneumonia, although there is evidence that such treatment may be associated with subsequent pneumonia caused by a relatively antimicrobial-resistant organism. As soon as regurgitation is suspected, the patient should be placed in Trendelenberg position so that gastric contents drain out of the mouth instead of into the trachea. The pharynx and, if possible, the trachea should be thoroughly suctioned. The mainstay of therapy in patients who subsequently become hypoxic is positive-pressure ventilation. Intubation and the institution of positive end-expiratory pressure are often required. Bronchoscopy, pulmonary lavage, and (as above) broad-spectrum antibiotics are not indicated except possibly when particulate aspiration has occurred. The use of corticosteroids is generally not recommended. Aspiration that has resulted in pneumonia, lung abscess, or empyema caused by oropharyngeal anaerobic bacteria has usually been treated, at least initially, with penicillin."

We exclusively invest in early-stage high-growth potential startups that are increasing access to improved livelihoods and/or live-improving goods/services. Some people use the term “ base of the economic pyramid ” or “ Bo P ” to refer to what we call “ the masses ” in India. Who qualifies as the Bo P masses in India? After reviewing a number of studies with varying conclusions, we have decided to use the following definitions:1) Bo P comprise the 1.05 billion people in India (5 out of 6 Indians) who live on an annual household income of less than INR 200,000 as of 2005. This is equivalent to less than INR 16,667 monthly household income. By 2015, size of the Bo P is projected to be 997 million, still nearly 80% of the population.2) In urban India, where cost of living is higher, we consider Bo P to have an annual household income of less than INR 300,000. This is equivalent to less than INR 25,000 monthly household income.3) In rural India, we consider Bo P to have an annual household income of less than INR 160,000. This is equivalent to less than INR 13,333 monthly household income. Please read on if you would like to better understand our findings and conclusions."

The surgical scar should be examined for areas of dehiscence or leakage. If present, markers should be placed near these areas. An anterior to posterior approach is used. Using sterile technique, a 20-gauge spinal needle is advanced to the medial edge of the humeral head portion of the prosthesis. Aspirated fluid is sent for gram stain, aerobic and anaerobic cultures, and cell count and differential. Other cultures such as fungal and AFB may be sent as well. Dry taps can occur for the following reasons: Dry joint Large periarticular bursa acting as sump for fluid Sinus track allowing for continuous drainage of joint In these instances, a wash is performed with non-bacteriostatic normal saline. Washed fluid is sent for the usual labs. Cell count and differential however is not performed on joint washes."

"text": "\"Number: 0776Policy Aetna considers electromagnetic navigation-guided bronchoscopy for the management of peripheral lung lesions experimental and investigational because of insufficient evidence of its effectiveness. Background The main problem in early diagnosis of lung cancer is the ability to reach small lung lesions and obtain diagnostic tissue samples. More than 50 % of lung targets are not accessible by conventional bronchoscopes due to the diameter relative to the constantly narrowing branches of the bronchial tree and due to orientation and maneuverability difficulties (Rivera et al, 2003; Alberts and Colice, 2003). Average diagnostic yield for peripheral lung lesion biopsy performed with conventional flexible bronchoscopy is reported to be 69 % for peripheral lesions greater than 20 mm, 33 % for peripheral lesions less than 20 mm, and 50 % to 85 % for lymph nodes (Mazzone et al, 2002; Riveria et al, 2003; Schriebner and Mc Crory, 2003). Non-diagnostic bronchoscopy leads to more invasive interventions, such as transthoracic needle aspiration, mediastinoscopy or even thoracotomy. Electromagnetic navigational bronchoscopy (ENB) was designed to increase the range of lung sites accessible by transbronchial needle aspiration, particularly in peripheral lesions. The bronchoscope and bronchial tool are guided on a path indicated by computed tomography (CT). Examples of ENB systems and accessories include, but may not be limited to: SPi N Drive; and super Dimension Bronchus System (also known as the i-Logic System). When ENB is used for diagnostic purposes, CT scans are first collected and downloaded into the system’s software, which reconstructs the scans into three- dimensional images of the lungs. The individual is sedated and positioned over an electromagnetic location board and bronchoscopy is initiated."

"text": "Antibiotics for Aspiration Pneumonia Antibiotics To Treat Aspiration Pneumonia - Antibiotics used for Aspiration Pneumonia - Aspiration Pneumonia Treatment Antibiotics Aspiration pneumonia develops after the inhalation of colonized oropharyngeal material. Aspiration of colonized secretions from the oropharynx is the primary mechanism by which bacteria gain entrance to the lungs. Indeed, Haemophilus influenzae and Streptococcus pneumoniae colonize the nasopharynx or oropharynx before they are aspirated and cause community-acquired pneumonia. The term �aspiration pneumonia,� however, refers specifically to the development of a radiographically evident infiltrate in patients who are at increased risk for oropharyngeal aspiration. Approximately half of all healthy adults aspirate small amounts of oropharyngeal secretions during sleep. Presumably, the low burden of virulent bacteria in normal pharyngeal secretions, together with forceful coughing, active ciliary transport, and normal humoral and cellular immune mechanisms, results in clearance of the infectious material without sequelae. However, if these mechanical, humoral, or cellular mechanisms are impaired or if the amount of aspirated material is sufficiently large, pneumonia may follow. Any condition that increases the volume or bacterial burden of oropharyngeal secretions in a person with impaired defense mechanisms may lead to aspiration pneumonia. Indeed, in patients who have had a stroke and are undergoing an evaluation of swallowing, there is a strong correlation between the volume of the aspirate and the development of pneumonia. Factors that increase the risk of oropharyngeal colonization with potentially pathogenic organisms and that increase the bacterial load may increase the risk of aspiration pneumonia."

Steindel, Ph D, FACMI, offers an overview of the elements that make ICD-10-PCS so different from its ICD-9 predecessor. Once coders crest the PCS learning curve—including a new approach to code development and new concepts for coding anatomy and physiology—most will find the new code set adds clarity with little or no loss in efficiency, he writes. ( For a review of ICD-10-CM, see Steindel’s article“Taking ICD-10-CM in Parts.”* * * On October 1, 2013, healthcare providers must begin reporting HIPAA claims using the ICD-10 counterparts to the current ICD-9 code sets. In presenting these code sets two points come to the forefront: the code structure has changed and the number of codes has drastically increased. This article reviews those changes as a foundation for learning and using ICD-10-PCS. ( Coding examples that appear throughout this article are based on the 2009 code set. ) The Basics ICD-10-PCS is intended to replace ICD-9 volume 3 for facility reporting of inpatient procedures. Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) is still used for all outpatient procedures. Healthcare Common Procedural Coding System (HCPCS) is still used as before."

"text": "Acer Announces Budget Acer Aspire One Cloudbook with Windows 10 for $170Kevin Purcell August 4, 2015News Notebooks Microsoft and its partners, like Acer, have tried to stop the onslaught of the cheap Chromebooks that cut into Windows notebook sales. But it looks like they’re joining in, now. Acer has just revealed a new alternative to Chromebooks. Running Windows 10 and called the Acer Aspire One Cloudbook, these budget Windows 10 notebooks start at only $170 for an 11-inch version and up to $200 for the 14-inch model. Can they really steal away sales from similarly priced Chromebooks? The Value of the Acer Aspire One Cloudbook The beauty of a Chromebook is the price and simplicity of the operating system. You lose a little of that simplicity with Windows, but these Acer Cloudbook notebooks compete well on price.

"text": "\"Cancer Thyroid Cancer Fine Needle Aspiration FNA Biopsy of the Thyroid A common method for evaluating a suspicious thyroid nodule By Mary Shomon Updated December 19, 2017Share Pin Email Print Miodrag Gajic/E+/Getty Images The most common method for evaluation of a suspicious thyroid nodule or mass is a technique known as fine needle aspiration biopsy, abbreviated as FNA. In an FNA, a very fine, thin needle is inserted into your thyroid, to aspirate (or \"\"suction out\"\") cells and/or fluid from your thyroid nodule or mass into the needle. The sample obtained can then be evaluated for the presence of cancerous cells. How Does FNA Differ From Needle Core Biopsy? In a needle core biopsy, a thicker, large needle is used to obtain a \"\"core\"\" tissue sample for analysis, and the larger sample that can be recut for smaller samples that can be sent out for further analysis. Needle biopsies are typically done using local anesthesia, and these procedures have a slightly greater risk of bleeding associated with them, so they are more often done by a surgeon in outpatient or ambulatory surgical facilities. If an HMO or community does not have practitioners with expertise in performing FNA, or there are not cytopathologists available to do the unique form of interpretation needed for FNA results, patients are likelier to have a core needle biopsy, as this procedure, while more invasive for patients, requires less skill to obtain a valid sample, and less skill for pathologists to read and interpret. Who Should Perform an FNA? Typically, FNAs are done by endocrinologists, cytopathologists, or surgeons. The cells are studied and assessed by a cytopathologist."

"text": "Pre-Op Diet for Gastric Sleeve Gastric Sleeve Surgery Preoperative Diet Going through life-changing weight loss surgery, you will need to make many adjustments both before and after surgery, specifically in your gastric sleeve surgery preoperative diet and nutrition. Following the guidelines of pre-op diet set by Mexico Bariatric Center’s surgeons and nutritionists is an imperative part of the bariatric process. Before gastric sleeve surgery, patients must undergo a preoperative diet to reduce body fat in the liver (size of the liver). There is a direct correlation between obesity and the condition called fatty liver. This fatty liver enlarges it and makes it heavier – which we can see below is disadvantageous to weight loss surgery. Things to Note: It’s important to consume enough water while on the liquid-only diet. Do not take any herbal medications for seven days before surgery. Do not take any aspirin, Advil, Nuprin, Aleve or any other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication for seven days before surgery. These drugs cause profuse bleeding after surgery. This includes baby aspirin and most arthritis medications."

"text": "Page contents Uses for aspirin Who can and can't take aspirin How to take aspirin Side effects of aspirin Interactions with other medicines, food and alcohol Missed or extra doses Aspirin is a common medicine that has a number of uses, from relieving pain to reducing the risk of serious problems such as heart attacks and strokes. It comes in many forms, including pills, tablets that are dissolved in water, powders and oral gels. Some types can be bought over the counter from pharmacies, while others are only available on prescription. Uses for aspirin At high doses – usually 300mg – aspirin can relieve pain, reduce a high temperature (fever) and reduce swelling. It's often used for short-term relief from:headaches and migrainestoothacheperiod painsgeneral aches and painscolds and flu Long-term treatment with low doses of aspirin – usually 75mg – has an antiplatelet effect, which means it makes the blood less sticky and can stop blood clots developing. A doctor may recommend this if you have or have had:a heart attack or anginaa stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA)peripheral arterial disease (PAD)coronary artery bypass surgery or another operation on your heart or blood vessels Aspirin may also be prescribed for children after heart surgery or to treat Kawasaki disease. But it shouldn't be given to anyone under 16 years old without medical supervision. Who can and can't take aspirin Most people can take aspirin safely. But you should get advice from a pharmacist or doctor before taking it if you:have had an allergic reaction to aspirin or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as ibuprofen, in the pasthave asthmahave had stomach ulcers in the pasthave severe liver or kidney problemshave haemophilia or another bleeding disorderhave uncontrolled high blood pressureare looking for medication for a child under 16 – medication containing aspirin shouldn't be given to children under 16are over 65 years of ageare pregnant, breastfeeding or trying to get pregnantare taking other medications – see Interactions with other medicines, below You may still be able to take aspirin in these cases, but you should only do so if advised that it's safe by a healthcare professional. If you can't take aspirin, a different medicine, such as paracetamol (for pain) or clopidogrel (to prevent blood clots), may be recommended instead."

To study proper discontinuation date of aspirin in spinal fusion surgery Summary of Background Data. It is thought that excess bleeding can be normalized if aspirin intake is discontinued approximately 7 days before surgery; however, the average life span of a platelet is generally regarded to be 7 to 10 days. Methods. From January 2004 to December 2009, a single surgeon performed 182 cases of 1- or 2-level lumbar fusion surgical procedures. Patients who were aspirin users (n = 86) were divided into 2 groups according to the number of days prior to surgery that they discontinued their aspirin use: the aspirin 1 group discontinued their aspirin use 3 to 7 days before surgery and the aspirin 2 group discontinued their aspirin use 7 to 10 days before surgery. Ninetysix patients who did not use aspirin before surgery were selected for the control group. We retrospectively compared the several hematological parameters among the 2 aspirin groups and the control group."

They are generally classified as either anti-platelets or anticoagulants. All anti-clotting therapies carry the risk of bleeding, which can lead to dangerous situations, including stroke. A thrombus is a blood clot that forms in a vessel and remains there. An embolism is a clot that travels from the site where it formed to another location in the body. Thrombi or emboli can lodge in a blood vessel and block the flow of blood in that location depriving tissues of normal blood flow and oxygen. This can result in damage, destruction (infarction), or even death of the tissues (necrosis) in that area. Aspirin."

"text": "Article Figures & Tables Info & Metrics e Letters Aspirin is one of the most widely used medical treatments worldwide. Although isolated from willow bark >100 years ago, it was not until 1971 that the mechanism of action of aspirin was described. 1 Trials involving tens of thousands of patients have since demonstrated that aspirin is effective for the prevention and treatment of heart attack and stroke. How Does Aspirin Work? Aspirin reduces the risk of heart attacks and strokes by preventing blood clots from forming on the surface of ruptured atherosclerotic plaques. Atherosclerotic plaques build up along the lining of blood vessels over many years in response to injury caused by high blood pressure, abnormal blood sugar levels, high blood cholesterol levels, and toxins contained in tobacco smoke. Platelets stick to ruptured atherosclerotic plaques to form blood clots that block blood flow and thereby reduce oxygen delivery to tissues ( Figure ). Clots that block blood flow to heart muscle cause heart attacks, and clots that block blood flow to the brain cause strokes. Download figure Open in new tab Download powerpoint Figure. A, Atherosclerotic plaques build up along the lining of blood vessels over many years in response to injury caused by high blood pressure, abnormal blood sugar levels, high blood cholesterol levels, and toxins contained in tobacco smoke."

Well that was yesterday (Tuesday) and I am flying out of Hamburg via London to Seattle on Friday.

I am flying with British Airways, but unfortunately, although I have traveled across the pond so many times, this is my first time with them. Does anyone think they might upgrade me, even to a slightly better seat, which would also avoid them the hassle of helping me down the isle to the last row of seating on a 747-400? Also, I most definitely will be traveling via wheel chair as walking to the bathroom seems problematic enough right now, let alone going through customs and the maize that is Heathrow.

"text": "\"Aspirin has been used for decades to treat health problems ranging from the common headache and arthritis to fever and toothaches, and for the prevention of heart attacks. Aspirin therapy works by helping the body reduce pain, fever, swelling, and to prevent the formation of specific types of blood clots. In fact, it can be used to prevent blood clots that flow to the brain and cause certain types of stroke. The American Heart Association recommends aspirin therapy to prevent a recurrence of heart attacks, recurring angina, and second strokes. But when it comes to deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a condition in which a clot forms in a deep vein, typically in your leg or pelvic area, there is controversy about the usefulness of aspirin therapy. Aspirin Therapy and DVT\"\"Aspirin therapy has virtually no role to play in the treatment of deep vein thrombosis or the prevention,\"\" says Jack Ansell, MD, chairman of the department of medicine at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City. \"\" Aspirin interferes with arterial platelet aggregation [sticking to other platelets as a clump], which has major important effects in cardiovascular circulation. But for DVT, there is no case in which it is appropriate. \"\" DVT Prevention: Aspirin Therapy During Surgery Dr. Ansell says that a number of orthopedic surgeons believe that, during surgery for hip or knee replacements, aspirin therapy can prevent dangerous blood clots that cause DVT. \"\" A good number of surgeons still use aspirin, even when there is a major debate among physicians as to how effective it is."

"text": "Drug News | Surgery |Back to Basics: Aspirin After Knee Surgery Mar 05, 2008 Viewed: 690Taking aspirin to prevent blood clots after knee surgery may be a safe and effective alternative to currently recommended treatments that are often costlier and riskier, according to preliminary results from a study presented today at the 75th Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS). The study found that patients taking aspirin had less risk of developing blood clots than patients taking other blood-thinning drugs. They also faced a similar risk compared to patients receiving injectable drugs. “Given the modern, less invasive techniques that orthopaedic surgeons are using now for total knee replacement, aspirin should be reconsidered a viable alternative to recommended therapies,” said Kevin J. Bozic, MD, MBA. Dr. Bozic is lead author on the study and associate professor in residence at the University of California, San Francisco Department of Orthopaedic Surgery and Philip R. Lee Institute for Health Policy Studies. Currently, clinical practice guidelines for preventing blood clots (venous thromboembolism) after total knee replacement do not recommend aspirin use. This study suggests otherwise. Dr. Bozic and his team compared data from more than 93,840 patients who underwent knee replacement surgeries at some 300 hospitals between October 2003 and September 2005. Researchers compared the risk of:• blood clots • mortality • surgical-site bleeding • infection in patients receiving aspirin versus guideline-approved therapies The study found that aspirin patients had: • fewer risk factors for blood clots prior to surgery • lower odds for blood clots compared to patients on warfarin • similar odds compared to patients receiving injectable therapies to prevent clots • no difference in bleeding risks or mortality“Not only have surgical techniques changed, but patients undergoing knee surgery today are more likely to be younger and healthier than when the current treatment guidelines were developed,” said Dr. Bozic. “ Aspirin is a simple, inexpensive and commonly used drug with few side effects, so it’s a very attractive alternative."

"text": "\"Aspirin Prevents Serious Complications From Surgery By Elaine Zablocki From the Web MD Archives April 13, 2000 (Eugene, Ore.) -- Small doses of ordinary aspirin may help decrease complications in people who go through major hip or knee surgery, according to a large study just published in the April 15 issue of the journal Lancet. Two of the main complications of major surgery are deep-vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism. A deep-vein thrombosis is a blood clot that forms in the blood vessels of the legs. If a clot breaks loose, it can travel upward, creating a blockage in the lung called a pulmonary embolism. An embolism is a serious condition that can lead to death. A thrombosis or embolism can occur weeks or even months after surgery. Thrombosis and embolism are treated with certain medications that break up blood clots or prevent more clots from forming. These same medications can often be used to prevent them as well. Researchers examined whether aspirin could be used in patients undergoing hip and knee surgery to prevent these dangerous complications.

"text": "Aspirin is one of the most widely used medical treatments worldwide. Although isolated from willow bark >100 years ago, it was not until 1971 that the mechanism of action of aspirin was described. 1 Trials involving tens of thousands of patients have since demonstrated that aspirin is effective for the prevention and treatment of heart attack and stroke. How Does Aspirin Work? Aspirin reduces the risk of heart attacks and strokes by preventing blood clots from forming on the surface of ruptured atherosclerotic plaques. Atherosclerotic plaques build up along the lining of blood vessels over many years in response to injury caused by high blood pressure, abnormal blood sugar levels, high blood cholesterol levels, and toxins contained in tobacco smoke. Platelets stick to ruptured atherosclerotic plaques to form blood clots that block blood flow and thereby reduce oxygen delivery to tissues ( Figure ). Clots that block blood flow to heart muscle cause heart attacks, and clots that block blood flow to the brain cause strokes. Download figure Open in new tab Download powerpoint Figure.

Aspirin is also known as acetylsalicylic acid, and is used as an analgesic and as an anti-inflammatory agent. Salicylic acid is found in the willow tree, myrtle bush and the bark of the birch tree. Buffered Aspirin Buffered aspirin is an NSAID or a non-steroid anti-inflammatory drug that inhibits the production of COX2 enzymes that cause pain and inflammation. There are two types of COX enzymes, namely COX1 and COX2. While COX1 enzymes are beneficial and help maintain the mucous lining of the stomach, COX2 enzymes are not beneficial. Buffered aspirin is very effective as it only attacks the COX2 enzymes in the body. Administration of Buffered Aspirin Buffered aspirin can be administered safely to dogs of all ages and breeds and helps to increase mobility and reduce pain, lameness and inflammation in arthritic dogs. It's an over the counter drug that provides relief from pain and inflammation caused by injury, surgery, arthritis or joint disease. Although it's not approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use on animals, it's commonly prescribed for dogs."

Each of the five latter experiments was performed to prove that aspirin and copper (II) aspirinate were indeed synthesized. The results from these procedures supported this conclusion. Introduction This multi-faceted experiment involved synthesis and analysis of aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) and copper (II) aspirinate. In the synthesis portion of the experiment, the effects of several catalysts on the speed of an exothermic reaction were ranked accordingly. The physical properties of aspirin were analyzed in a melting point procedure, and compared to literature values. A p H titration was performed to examine the acidic properties of acetylsalicylic acid. The equivalence point was determined to find the Ka for aspirin. A conductimetric titration was performed to determine the synthesized compound's molecular weight. Finally, IR and UV spectra showed the light absorbance properties of the synthesized product."

(H.) from The Doctor's Prescription for Healthy Living - Volume 2, Number 3 Over the years, a significant amount of medical research has been performed on enzymes and their use for circulatory and cardiovascular health. Scientists worldwide have found that vascular and circulatory disorders respond extremely well to systemic oral enzymes. If you ar suffering from, or at risk for, arteriosclerosis, thrombosis, and other coronary heart disorders, phlebitis, edema, serious varicose veins and other circulatory problems that affect the various organs, including the brain, lungs, heart, kidneys, and liver - combination oral enzymes may be an important supplement regimen for supporting your circulatory health. Strong Case for Oral Enzymes: Inflammation and Heart Disease The role of systemic oral enzymes in heart health is becoming more important as medical researchers uncover a newly emerging disease pathway in which uncontrolled inflammation throughout the body can contribute to a wide range of deadly maladies, including heart disease, stroke, and other circulatory disorders. There is now convincing evidence that inflammation is strongly linked to heart attacks and stroke, according to Attilio Maseri, M. D., of the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart, Rome, writing in a recent issue of The New England Journal of Medicine. In that same issue of the prestigious medical journal, medical scientists from Harvard Medical School, long involved with the Physician's Health Study, report that curbing inflammation may be at the \"\"heart\"\" of a sensible cardiovascular health program. Fortunately, enzymes have already been proven, in many clinical studies, to safely lower the specific types of inflammation closely linked to heart disease. The study results, reported in 1997 in The New England Journal of Medicine, stem from the Physician's Heath Study, involving 22,000 male doctors. The study was halted in 1988 when researchers dicovered aspirin, a classic anti-inflammatory drug, significantly helped to lower heart disease risk among men. The findings were so significant that the researchers conducting the study believed it was no longer moral or ethical to deny the non-aspirin group this important protective agent."

The preparation of a cup of tea or coffee represents a process of extraction of flavor and odor components from dried material into water. When a compound is extracted from a solid material into a liquid, the process is referred to as a solid-liquid extraction; if the transfer occurs from one liquid into another is called liquid-liquid extraction. Most organic synthetic procedures are followed by workups employing extraction to isolate the product of interest. How would a mixture of saccharin and Na Cl be separated? Both are soluble in water. However, saccharin is somewhat soluble in diethyl ether while salt is not. If you dissolve the mixture in water and then add ether, two layers will form because ether and water are immiscible. Most of the saccharin will be extracted into the ether layer. Notice that the separation is not absolute."

"text": "0Ask a Question Chemistry- Aspirin lab question In lab today, we measured the actual yield and melting point of aspirin that we had made in lab last week. Our actual yield was 2.87 grams. The theoretical yield was 2.9 g, so the percent yield was 98.96%. When we tested the melting point, the range was 106-118. Since the melting point of pure aspirin is 138-140, this means that our aspirin was impure. My question is what would have caused us to have a high percent yield, but low purity? What went wrong? The aspirin was completely dry, so it wasn't that there was water making the aspirin heavier, giving us a higher actual yield and therefore a higher percent yield, but obviously there was something in our aspirin that was making it heavier right? Or could we have measured the melting point wrong? Chemistry4/22/2014 | Dana from Sugar Land, TX Subscribe Comment"

"text": "\"Science, Tech, Math ›Science How to Make Aspirin - Acetylsalicylic Acid Share Flipboard Email Printby Anne Marie Helmenstine, Ph. D. Updated April 20, 201701of 05How to Make Aspirin - Acetylsalicylic Acid - Introduction and History Aspirin is acetylsalicylic acid. Stephen Swintek / Getty Images Aspirin is the most widely used over-the-counter drug in the world. The average tablet contains about 325 milligrams of the active ingredient acetylsalicylic acid with an inert binding material such as starch. Aspirin is used to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and lower fever. Aspirin originally was derived by boiling the bark of the white willow tree. Although the salicin in willow bark has analgesic properties, purified salicylic acid was bitter and irritating when taken orally. Salicylic acid was neutralized with sodium to produce sodium salicylate, which was better-tasting but still irritated the stomach. Salicylic acid could be modified to produce phenylsalicylate, which was better tasting and less irritating, but released the toxic substance phenol when metabolized. Felix Hoffman and Arthur Eichengrün first synthesized the active ingredient in aspirin, acetylsalicylic acid, in 1893."

"text": "CYCLOBENZAPRINE HYDROCHLORIDE - cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride tablet Actavis Totowa LLC----------Cyclobenzaprine HCl TABLETS, USP 5 mg8601-01Rx Only DESCRIPTIONCyclobenzaprine hydrochloride is a white, crystalline tricyclic amine salt with the empirical formula C20H21N•HCl and a molecular weight of 311.9. It has a melting point of 217°C, and a p Ka of 8.47 at 25°C. It is freely soluble in water and alcohol, sparingly soluble in isopropanol, and insoluble in hydrocarbon solvents. If aqueous solutions are made alkaline, the free base separates. Cyclobenzaprine HCl is designated chemically as 3- (5 H -dibenzo [ a,d] cyclohepten-5-ylidene)- N, N -dimethyl-1-propanamine hydrochloride, and has the following structural formula: Cyclobenzaprine HCl is supplied as a 5 mg tablet for oral administration. Cyclobenzaprine HCl tablets, USP 5 mg contain the following inactive ingredients: carnauba wax powder, croscarmellose sodium, FD&C Yellow #6 Aluminum Lake, iron oxide yellow, lactose monohydrate, lecithin, macrogol, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, polyvinyl alcohol, silicon dioxide, talc, titanium dioxide. CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGYCyclobenzaprine HCl relieves skeletal muscle spasm of local origin without interfering with muscle function. It is ineffective in muscle spasm due to central nervous system disease. Cyclobenzaprine reduced or abolished skeletal muscle hyperactivity in several animal models. Animal studies indicate that cyclobenzaprine does not act at the neuromuscular junction or directly on skeletal muscle."

It has the formula C 7 H 6 O 3. This colorless crystalline organic acid is widely used in organic synthesis and functions as a plant hormone. It is derived from the metabolism of salicin. In addition to serving as an important active metabolite of aspirin ( acetylsalicylic acid ), which acts in part as a prodrug to salicylic acid, it is probably best known for its use as a key ingredient in topical anti- acne products. The salts and esters of salicylic acid are known as salicylates. It is on the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines, the most important medications needed in a basic health system. ["

"text": "\"The Classification of Matter By definition, all material things are made of matter, and chemists are profoundly interested in the nature of material stuff. The Four Aristotelian Elements Western chemistry grew up around old alchemical ideas of Earth, Air, Fire, and Water – the so called Aristotelian elements – a concept that originated with the ancient Greeks and others, here. Read more about the Four Elements in Carmen Giunta's Elements and Atoms: Case Studies in the Development of Chemistry, here. Fathi Habashi of Laval University discusses Zoroastra and The Theory of Four Elements, here, and Cambodia's Four Elements, here. The Year 1800: Organic & Inorganic Matter In the year 1800 some 27 chemical elements were known: Ideas had moved on from the four Aristotelian elements, and it was thought that there were two distinct types of matter: organic and inorganic. Organic matter was associated with living things (biological origin: flora, forna, food, us) and was assumed to possess a vital-force, an indefinable characteristic that separated living organisms and materials derived from living organisms from inanimate inorganic matter: Inorganic matter is of geological origin: minerals, rock, sea, air New Ideas: Urea and an Unanswerable Challenge the Vital-Force Theory In the nineteenth century chemical knowledge increased dramatically: In 1804, Dalton proposed that matter was constructed from identical, indivisible atoms which combined with each other in constant, or stoichiometric, proportions. In 1828 the classical distinction between organic and inorganic matter was resolved as evidence accumulated that organic materials could be synthesised in the laboratory from inorganic, non-living sources. The crucial step occurred when the German chemist Friedrich Wohler heated ammonium cyanate, an inorganic salt, and produced the substance urea, H 2 NCONH 2, that was identical to organic urea isolated from the urine of animals, and so was organic. Wohler's synthesis of an organic chemical from inorganic starting materials was an unanswerable challenge to the vital-force theory. By the end of the nineteenth century chemical methodology had become very sophisticated."

"text": "\"A: Many people would say the smallest number of shares that an investor can purchase is one, but the real answer is not as straightforward. While there is no minimum order limit on the purchase of a publicly traded company's stock, it's advisable to buy blocks of stock with a minimum value of $500 to $1,000. This is because no matter what online or offline service an investor uses to purchase stock, there are brokerage fees and commissions on the trade. When purchasing stock in the open market, an investor should open a trading or brokerage account with a leading financial institution such as e Trade, Charles Schwab or Ameritrade. Once the investor opens a trading account, it's up to him how many stocks he wants to purchase at any one time. Before making any purchase decisions, an investor should do ample research on the various types of equity securities that are offered. Once an investor identifies a stock worth purchasing, he should execute an online trade by using his brokerage account. There are two types of trades that can be made in this scenario: a market order and a limit order. If the investor makes a market order, he chooses to purchase the stock at the current market price. If the investor makes a limit order, he chooses to wait to purchase the stock until the price falls to a specific limit."

While fixed-income securities such as bonds and CDs have been popular with income investors in the past, the low yields we’ve seen in recent years have made it difficult to generate meaningful returns. Fortunately, there are plenty of dividend-paying stocks that can be used to generate a steady income stream. Who Pays Dividends? Not all companies pay a dividend. If a company has earned a profit, it has some options when it comes to using that money. Companies that earn a profit can: Reinvest their profits through expansion, debt reduction and/or share repurchases Pay a portion of their profits to shareholders through dividends Both reinvest and pay out to shareholders Younger companies in rapidly expanding industries tend not to pay dividends because they want to reinvest as much money as possible into further growth – for example, they might use the money to start a new project, buy new assets, repurchase some of their shares or acquire another company. Even stable, mature companies might avoid paying dividends if they feel they can do a better job of increasing value and share price by reinvesting earnings. Berkshire Hathaway (BRK-A, BRK-B), for example, does not pay a dividend because Warren Buffett – the company’s chairman and CEO – believes that reinvesting provides more long-term value to shareholders (the company did pay one dividend back in 1967). Typically, dividends are paid by older, more established companies that have already reached a certain size and are no longer able to sustain higher levels of growth."

"text": "Since it would be too difficult to track every single security that trades in the U. S., we take a smaller sample of the market that is representative of the whole – similar to the way pollsters use surveys to gauge the sentiment of the population. That smaller sample is called an index, which is a statistical measure of the changes in a portfolio of stocks representing a portion of the overall market. Investors and other market participants use indexes to track the performance of the stock market. Ideally, a change in the price of an index represents an exactly proportional change in the stocks included in the index: If an index goes up 1%, for example, it means the stocks that comprise that index have also increased by an average of 1%. In 1896, Charles Dow – who with fellow reporter Edward Jones founded Dow Jones & Company – created the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA), the second-oldest stock market index in the world (the oldest is the Dow Jones Transportation Index, also created by Dow). At that time, the DJIA contained 12 publicly-traded industrials, including General Electric – the only original constituent that remains in the index. Today, the Dow is a benchmark that tracks 30 of the largest and most influential companies in the U. S. and is one of the best-known indexes in the world. ( For more, see Giants of Finance: Charles Dow . ) Before the digital age, calculating the price of a stock market index had to be kept as simple as possible. The original DJIA was calculated using a simple average: add up the prices of the 12 companies and divide that number by 12."

"text": "Margin Trading: Introduction Margin Trading: What Is Buying On Margin? Margin Trading: The Dreaded Margin Call Margin Trading: The Advantages Margin Trading: The Risks Margin Trading: Managing Risks Margin Trading: Conclusion Buying on margin is borrowing money from a broker to purchase stock. You can think of it as a loan from your brokerage. Margin trading allows you to buy more stock than you'd be able to normally. To trade on margin, you need a margin account. This is different from a regular cash account, in which you trade using the money in the account. By law, your broker is required to obtain your signature to open a margin account. The margin account may be part of your standard account opening agreement or may be a completely separate agreement. An initial investment of at least $2,000 is required for a margin account, though some brokerages require more. This deposit is known as the minimum margin."

"text": "Loading the player... A: All publicly traded companies have a set number of shares that are outstanding. A stock split is a decision by a company's board of directors to increase the number of shares that are outstanding by issuing more shares to current shareholders. For example, in a 2-for-1 stock split, an additional share is given for each share held by a shareholder. So, if a company had 10 million shares outstanding before the split, it will have 20 million shares outstanding after a 2-for-1 split. A stock's price is also affected by a stock split. After a split, the stock price will be reduced since the number of shares outstanding has increased. In the example of a 2-for-1 split, the share price will be halved. Thus, although the number of outstanding shares and the price change, the market capitalization remains constant. [ Stock splits can be a confusing concept for those new to the stock market, but a failure to understand them can have a significant impact on your returns.

Making sense of the numbers to assess how companies are paying their top brass isn't always easy. Investors must ensure that executive compensation is working in their favor. Here are a few guidelines for checking a company's compensation program. Risk and Reward Company boards, at least in principle, try to use compensation contracts to align executives' actions with company success. The idea is that CEO performance provides value to the organization. \"\" Pay for performance\"\" is the mantra most companies use when they try to explain their compensation plans. While everyone can support the idea of paying for performance, it implies that CEOs take on risk. CEOs' fortunes should rise and fall with companies' fortunes. When you are looking at a company's compensation program, check to see how much stake executives have in delivering the goods for investors."

"text": "\"A: The term \"\"float\"\" refers to the regular shares a company has issued to the public that are available for investors to trade. This figure is derived by taking a company's outstanding shares and subtracting any restricted stock, which is stock that is under some sort of sales restriction (for example, stock that is held by insiders and cannot be traded because they are in a lock-up period following an initial public offering). A company's float is an important number for investors because it indicates how many shares are actually available to be bought and sold by the general investing public. The company is not responsible for how shares within the float are traded by the public—this is a function of the secondary market. Therefore, shares that are purchased, sold or even shorted by investors do not affect the float because these actions do not represent a change in the number of shares available for trade, they simply represent a redistribution of shares. Similarly, the creation and trading of options on a stock do not affect the float. An Example of How a Float Works Say the TSJ Sports Conglomerate has 10 million shares in total, but 3 million shares are held by insiders who acquired these shares through some type of share distribution plan. Because the employees of TSJ are not allowed to trade these stocks for a certain period of time, they are considered to be restricted; therefore, the company's float would be 7 million (10 million - 3 million = 7 million). In other words, only 7 million shares are available for trade. It should also be noted there is an inverse correlation between the size of a company's float and the volatility of the stock's price."

"text": "The price-to-earnings ratio, or P/E is the ratio of the market price of a company’s stock to its earnings per share (EPS): P/E Ratio =Market Value per Share Earnings per Share (EPS)Many times, investors look to the past four quarters of earnings and calculate annual earnings per share. This is known as the trailing P/E. If a company’s shares are trading at $20 and it’s earnings per share was $1.25 over the past year, the trailing P/E would be 16x. The P/E is often expressed a multiple of earnings. Notice that the P/E ratio is not expressed in dollar terms – this is because the dollar terms in the numerator and denominator of the P/E ratio formula cancel each other out. This leaves us with an apples to apples comparison with other companies' P/Es. If a second company in the same industry was trading with a P/E of 10x, an analyst would have to determine if one was overpriced relative to the other. Sometimes, analysts are interested in long term valuation trends and consider the P/E 10 or P/E 30 measures, which average the past 10 or past 30 years of earnings, respectively. These measures are often used when trying to gauge the overall value of a stock index, such as the S&P 500 since these longer term measures can compensate for changes in the business cycle. The P/E ratio of the S&P 500 has fluctuated from a low of around 6x (in 1949) to over 120x (in 2009). The long-term average P/E for the S&P 500 is around 15x, meaning that the stocks that make up the index collectively command a premium 15 times greater than their weighted average earnings."

In fact, \"\"primary market\"\" and \"\"secondary market\"\" are both distinct terms; the primary market refers to the market where securities are created, while the secondary market is one in which they are traded among investors. Knowing how the primary and secondary markets work is key to understanding how stocks, bonds and other securities trade. Without them, the capital markets would be much harder to navigate and much less profitable. We'll help you understand how these markets work and how they relate to individual investors. Primary Market The primary market is where securities are created. It's in this market that firms sell ( float) new stocks and bonds to the public for the first time. An initial public offering, or IPO, is an example of a primary market. These trades provide an opportunity for investors to buy securities from the bank that did the initial underwriting for a particular stock. An IPO occurs when a private company issues stock to the public for the first time."

"text": "\"For a publicly traded company, its stock price can often be a barometer of its health. There are exceptions to this rule, but a company's stock price reflects investor perception of its ability to earn and grow its profits in the future. Generally speaking, the higher the stock price, the greater the optimism about the company's prospects. As a company's stock price increases, so does its market value. IPOCompanies receive money from the securities market only when they first sell a security to the public in the primary market, which is commonly referred to as an initial public offering (IPO). In an IPO, a company will have its own shares converted to public securities as are those granted or sold to early investors who backed the company before it went public. Pre-IPO shares can also be granted to executives, employees, family and friends. In the subsequent trading of these shares on the secondary market (what most refer to as \"\"the stock market\"\"), other investors including individuals, institutions, and funds who buy and sell the stock, benefit from any appreciation in stock price. Fluctuating prices are translated into gains or losses for these investors as they shift stock ownership. Individual traders receive the full capital gain or loss after transaction costs and taxes."

Companies with a high P/E ratio are typically growth stocks. However, their relatively high multiples do not necessarily mean their stocks are overpriced and not good buys for the long term. TUTORIAL: Understanding the P/E Ratio Let's take a closer look at what the P/E ratio tells us: P/E Ratio There are two primary components here, the market value (price) of the stock and the earnings of the company. Earnings are very important to consider. After all, earnings represent profits, and that's what every business strives for. Earnings are calculated by taking the hard figures into account: revenue, cost of goods sold (COGS), salaries, rent, etc. These are all important to the livelihood of a company. If the company isn't using its resources effectively it will not have positive earnings, and problems will eventually arise.

The \"\"cap\"\" part of these terms is short for capitalization, which is a measure by which we can classify a company's size. Although the criteria for the different classifications are not strictly bound, it is important for investors to understand these terms, which are not only ubiquitous but also useful for gauging a company's size and riskiness. Calculating Market Cap Market capitalization is just a fancy name for a straightforward concept: it is the market value of a company's outstanding shares. This figure is found by taking the stock price and multiplying it by the total number of shares outstanding. For example, if Cory's Tequila Corporation (CTC) was trading at $20 per share and had a million shares outstanding, then the market capitalization would be $20 million ($20 x 1 million shares). It's that simple. Why It's Important A common misconception is that the higher the stock price, the larger the company. Stock price, however, may misrepresent a company's actual worth."

"text": "\"A: A company's worth, or its total value, is called its market capitalization, or \"\"market cap\"\", and it is represented by the company's stock price multiplied by the number of shares outstanding. For example, if Microsoft (MSFT) is trading for $71.41, on a particular day, and has 7.7 billion shares outstanding, the company is valued at $71.14 x 7.7 billion = $ 550 billion. If we take this one step further, we can see that Facebook (FB) that has a $167.40 stock price and 2.37 billion shares outstanding (market cap = $396.7 billion) is worth less than a company with a $71.41 stock price and 7.7 billion shares outstanding (market cap = $550 billion). Thus, the stock price is a relative and proportional value of a company's worth and only represents percentage changes in market cap at any given point in time. Any percentage changes in a stock price will result in an equal percentage change in a company's value. This is the reason why investors are so concerned with stock prices and any changes that may occur since a $0.10 drop in a stock can result in a $100,000 loss for shareholders with one million shares.

"text": "A: Straddles and strangles are both options strategies that allow the investor to gain on significant moves either up or down in a stock's price. Both strategies consist of buying an equal number of call and put options with the same expiration date; the only difference is that the strangle has two different strike prices, while the straddle has one common strike price. For example, let's say you believe your favorite diamond mining company is going to release its latest results in three weeks time, but you have no idea whether the news will be good or bad. This would be a good time to enter into a straddle, because when the results are released the stock is likely to be more sharply higher or lower. Let's assume the price is currently at $15 and we are currently in April 05. Suppose the price of the $15 call option for June 05 has a price of $2. The price of the $15 put option for June 05 has a price of $1. A straddle is achieved by buying both the call and the put for a total of $300: ($2 + $1) x 100 = 300. The investor in this situation will gain if the stock moves higher (because of the long call option) or if the stock goes lower (because of the long put option). Profits will be realized as long as the price of the stock moves by more than $3 per share in either direction."

The first portion of the crash occurred on October 24, a day known as Black Thursday. The following week brought Black Monday (Oct. 28) and Black Tuesday (Oct. 29) – the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell more than 20% over those two days. Pre-existing selling pressures and fear in the stock market were exasperated by a flood of sell orders that shut down the ticker-tape service that provided stock prices to traders. With key information missing from the markets, selling intensified even further. Despite a few attempts at recovery, the stock market continued to languish, eventually falling almost 90% from its peak in 1929. Next Up Stock Market Crash Of 1987October Effect Black Thursday Splash Crash BREAKING DOWN 'Stock Market Crash Of 1929'The lead-up to October 1929 saw equity prices rise to all-time high multiples of more than 30 times earnings, and the benchmark Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) had risen 500% in just five years! This type of hyper-growth has shown itself to be unsustainable over time, as markets generally perform their best when they can grow steadily. It took over 25 years for the DJIA to get back to the highs of the 1929 market, as the U. S. economy suffered through what we now call the Great Depression."

"text": "Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag - Freedom Cry DLC Trailer (Featuring Adewale)Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available. Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML5 video.0:00 / 1:58The developers at Ubisoft haven’t been afraid to delve into history to bring added drama to the Assassin’s Creed series, and with Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag, they’re keeping the tradition alive. Most notably, in their plans to make the most of the expected DLC Season Pass. But rather than simple weapons or costumes, owners of the Season Pass will be able to play through “Freedom Cry,” a standalone Black Flag campaign starring Edward Kenway’s first mate Adewale, as the escaped slave is forced to confront his past, and bring punishment to those who most deserve it. Ubisoft certainly looks to be breaking the mold with their new hero, and from the trailer for Adewale’s campaign, he’ll be earning some fans as well. Read on for the full description of the nine-mission “Freedom Cry” campaign, straight from Ubisoft: Born a slave, Adewale found freedom as a pirate aboard the Jackdaw where he became Edward Kenway’s second-in-command. Now, 15 years later, Adewale has become a trained Assassin who finds himself shipwrecked in Saint-Domingue without weapons or crew. He starts to meet locals in an effort to assemble a crew and steal a ship. The more he helps, however, the more he is drawn into the Maroon slave community. Forced to face his past, Adewale sets out to free the slaves and bring death to their captors."

"text": "\"Updated: Assassin's Creed: Origins goes to Egypt, and everything else you need to know Latest: The Games Com 2017 trailer has arrived! © Ubisoft By Liam Martin and Justin Mahboubian-Jones23 August 2017683Assassin's Creed had a year off in 2016, which was a wise decision if you ask us. The yearly release cycle of the franchise had left it feeling tired, and Ubisoft knew it. Assassin's Creed Unity was a buggy, uninspiring iteration, and while the developers put things right with Assassin's Creed Syndicate, the games' playing public was losing interest – with Syndicate recording the worst week one sales of any major Assassin's Creed game in November 2015. Advertisement - Continue Reading Below So what next for the series? Last year, leaks pointed towards a game codenamed Assassin's Creed Empire, a game which we now know is called Assassin's Creed Origins, and will send players further back in time than ever before to Ancient Egypt. Assassin's Creed Origins setting: Egypt, you say? © Ubisoft Yes, Ptolemaic Egypt to be precise. The Ptolemaic dynasty ruled the ancient empire from 323 BC to 30 BC, after which it was conquered by the Romans. Origins actually arrives rather late in the story of a great nation that dates back past 3000 BC, but of course, audiences want the great Pyramids, they want the complications of empire, and they want the great Egypt is summoned to mind with names like Cleopatra."

By Terri Schwartz Video game adaptations don’t have a great track record on the big screen. As superhero movies dominate the box office, Hollywood is still waiting to have a big breakout hit based on a video game property — and the creative team behind 20th Century Fox’s Assassin’s Creed is hoping this can be it. Starring and produced by Michael Fassbender and directed by Macbeth’s Justin Kurzel, Assassin’s Creed is set in a world where the villainous Templars are trying to gather artifacts that will allow them to control humanity and eliminate free will. To do so, they tap into the DNA of people whose ancestors were alive during certain periods and using their memories to track down the various artifacts. When the movie opens up, the Templars have been chasing one artifact in particular for almost two decades, and they believe a key detail to finding it resides in 15th century Spain. They bring Fassbender’s character Callum to their headquarters at Abstergo in Madrid, where he is held captive with a handful of others that Templars are using for their memories. In Abstergo, Callum is sent back into the mind of his 15th century ancestor Aguilar through the Animus, but in the present, he and his new family of Assassins need to find a way to escape the Templars before they are killed. Assassin's Creed - First Trailer sharei Error 4: No compatible source was found for this media.1:53It’s a storyline that borrows its influence directly from the premise of the Assassin’s Creed video game franchise, but Kurzel wanted the moviegoing experience to offer something new. “"

It was released in November 2014 for Microsoft Windows, Play Station 4 and Xbox One. It is the eighth major installment in the Assassin's Creed series, and the successor to 2013's Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag. It also has ties to Assassin's Creed Rogue which was released for the previous generation consoles, the Play Station 3 and Xbox 360 on the same date. The plot is set in a fictional history of real world events and follows the centuries-old struggle between the Assassins, who fight for peace with free will, and the Templars, who desire peace through control. The story is set in Paris during the French Revolution; the single-player story follows Arno Victor Dorian in his efforts to expose the true powers behind the Revolution. The game retains the series' third-person open world exploration as well as introducing a revamped combat, parkour and stealth system. The game also introduces cooperative multiplayer to the Assassin's Creed series, letting up to four players engage in narrative-driven missions and explore the open world map. Assassin's Creed Unity received mixed reviews upon its release. Praise was aimed towards its visual upgrades, improved free-running and combat, customization options, realization of the setting, multiplayer-oriented format, complex protagonists and the design of the main missions."

Spanish Brotherhood of Assassins Organizational information Operational center Sierra de Cazorla Locations Spain Related groups Assassins Emirate of Granada Second Spanish Republic Republicans Additional information Notable members Luis de Santángel Raphael Sánchez Benedicto Aguilar de Nerha Maria Gonzalo Pardo Ignacio Cardona The Spanish Brotherhood of Assassins is the Guild of Assassins operating in Spain, who, during the Renaissance, cultivated ties with the royal houses of Castile, Aragon, and the Emirate of Granada . Much of their operations in this period revolved around vying for influence with the Christian monarchs against the Templars, resulting in several Assassins such as Raphael Sánchez and Luis de Santángel being appointed as prominent officials. The Templars in turn preyed on the religious zealotry of the Catholic Monarchs through the Spanish Inquisition, and at the peak of that institution, the Assassins across Spain were targeted as heretics. Thanks in part to the intervention of Ezio Auditore da Firenze of the Italian Brotherhood, the Spanish Assassins survived the purge and became instrumental in putting an end to the Granada War and saving as many civilians as they could from the Inquisition. In that same period, the Assassins were also pivotal in securing the Genoese navigator Christopher Columbus the sponsorship of Queen Isabella I of Castile, personally funding half of the expenses and thereby facilitating his explorations of the New World. The exposure of the continent to European powers would spark a frenzy by the Spanish Empire to conquer indigenous American empires such as the Inca and Aztecs, leading to the Spanish Assassins to send secret agents with the conquistadors abroad to keep a watchful eye over their activities."

"text": "6 Assassin’s Creed Games Ranked Christopher Loi October 28, 2014In anticipation of 2014’s upcoming release of two new Assassins Creed titles, Rogue and Unity, this is a good time to revisit the six installments in this renowned series. Assassins Creed Unity, developed for top consoles like the PS4 and Xbox One, is sure to reinvent the beloved franchise in ways we are not expecting and Rogue, developed for previous generation consoles like the PS3 and Xbox 360, is sure to give us more of what we loved last generation. But before we gamers can head off to Paris or the Atlantic Ocean, let’s ask ourselves the ultimate Assassin’s Creed questions. What is the best Assassin’s Creed game released so far and where do all 6 rank in greatness?6) ASSASSIN’S CREED 3Running up to the much anticipated launch of Assassins Creed 3 in 2012, fans of the series everywhere were excited for the new setting that took place during the American Revolution. On paper it sounded amazing. Meeting the founding fathers, jumping around the pre-colonial New York city and taking an active role in famous events like the Boston tea party and the battle of Bunker Hill seemed to give this game a lot of potentials to be amazing. Unfortunately, what we ended up with was a let down. The game became overwhelming, cracking under the weight of its own ambition, and 10 long hours of tedious tutorials hindered what could have been an amazing experience. Surprisingly, the naval combat was a revolutionary feature which got reinvented into a full fledged sequel known only as Black Flag.5) ASSASSIN’S CREEDThe original Assassin’s Creed game exploded onto our consoles in 2007 introducing a different type of game that features a diverse open world with a unique take on combat – stealth assassination. The story follows master assassin Altair in his quest to assassinate nine high profile targets."

It's November, which means we get a new game featuring a man (or woman) in a cowl, who loves to stab bad people. And good people. And anyone else who gets in the way. As such, the series - with its labyrinthine lore - has generated a LOT of characters. Keeping track of them all is almost impossible, and creating a list of them all is nothing sort of madness. Nonetheless - to celebrate the release of both AC Unity and AC Rogue - that's exactly what we've done. Not only that, we've reached out to developers from throughout the series to discover who their favourite characters are. AND we've listed our favourite Assassins. AND we've gathered loads of Assassin's Creed treasure to give away to two, lucky, UK-based (so sorry, US chums) readers."

"text": "Exactly How Valuable is the Assassin’s Creed Franchise? Nat Berman 2 years ago No Comments As one of the biggest video game franchises to date, Assassin’s Creed is an action-adventure video game series that has recently been transformed into a movie. The trailer is currently being routed in all markets with a scheduled release date of December 16th, 2016. Created by Ubisoft, the franchise consists of nine games and a variety of supporting materials. All games take place in a fictional historical world but parallel real world events while following the struggle between Assassins and the Templars over many centuries. The Assassin’s fight for free will and peace while the Templars also desire peace through control. The series was originally inspired by Alamut, a novel from Slovenian writer Vladimir Bartol and combines ideas from the popular Prince of Persia series. History of Assassin’s Creed Third Crusade Initially launched in 2007 for the Play Station 3, Xbox 360 and Windows, the first Assassin’s Creed took place in the Third Crusade period. In 2008, Assassin’s Creed: Altair’s Chronicles was released for the Nintendo DS and the most popular mobile devices. In 2009, Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines was made available for the Play Station Portable."

By Amit Malewar - January 19, 2018MIT researchers have developed hardware that uses electric fields to move droplets of chemical or biological solutions around a surface, mixing them in ways that could be used to test thousands of reactions in parallel. Image: Jimmy Day MIT specialists have created equipment that uses electric fields to move beads of a compound or natural arrangements around a surface, blending them in ways that could be utilized to test a large number of responses in parallel. The specialists see their framework as a contrasting option to the microfluidic gadgets now generally utilized as a part of a natural research, in which organic arrangements are pumped through minuscule channels associated with mechanical valves. The new approach, which moves arrangements around in computationally endorsed designs, could empower tests to be directed all the more productively, cost-viably, and at bigger scales. With this new framework, a huge number of beads could be saved on the surface of his gadget, and they would naturally move around to complete organic investigations. The framework incorporates programming that enables clients to depict, at an abnormal state of a sweeping statement, the examinations they wish to lead. The product at that point naturally ascertains beads’ ways over the surface and arranges the planning of progressive operations. Udayan Umapathi, a researcher at the MIT Media Lab said, “Traditional microfluidic systems use tubes, valves, and pumps. What this means is that they are mechanical, and they break down all the time."

Examples of Reactions by an HIV-1 Western Blot Introduction An arsenal of laboratory methods is available to screen blood, diagnose infection, and monitor disease progression in individuals infected by HIV. These tests can be classified into those that: 1) detect antibody, 2) identify antigen, 3) detect or monitor viral nucleic acids, and 4) provide an estimate of T-lymphocyte numbers (cell phenotyping). The focus of this discussion is on antibody detection, the most widely used and, in most situations, most effective way to identify HIV infection. General Considerations Tests to detect antibody to HIV can be further classified as: 1) screening assays, which are designed to detect all infected individuals, or 2) confirmatory (supplemental) assays, which are designed to identify individuals who are not infected but who have reactive screening test results. Accordingly, screening tests possess a high degree of sensitivity, whereas confirmatory assays have a high specificity. Tests with high sensitivity produce few false-negative results, whereas tests with high specificity produce few false-positive results. These classes of assays, performed in tandem, produce results that are highly accurate, reliable, and appropriate to protect the blood supply or assist in the diagnosis of HIV infection. Technical errors do occur, however, and there are biologic factors that can limit the accuracy of HIV tests. Therefore, along with the testing process, there is the requirement for an extraordinary and dedicated quality assurance program. ("

Phosphorylation usually results in a functional change of the target protein ( substrate) by changing enzyme activity, cellular location, or association with other proteins. The human genome contains about 560 protein kinase genes and they constitute about 2% of all human genes. [ 1] Up to 30% of all human proteins may be modified by kinase activity, and kinases are known to regulate the majority of cellular pathways, especially those involved in signal transduction. Protein kinases are also found in bacteria and plants, and include the pseudokinase sub-family, which exhibit unusual features [2] including atypical nucleotide binding and weak, or no, catalytic activity [3] and are part of a much larger pseudoenzyme group of 'degraded' enzyme relatives that are found throughout life, where they take an active participation in mechanistic cellular signaling.

Positive rhinovirus/enterovirus FA targets revealed patterns loosely associated with EV-D68 that may be useful for confirmation triaging. Previous Section Next Section TEXTIn 2014, an outbreak of enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) spread through the United States. Cases of severe respiratory illness due to EV-D68 in pediatric patients were reported in many states, particularly in Missouri and Illinois. Generally, enteroviruses are associated with mild respiratory illnesses, but these reported cases were associated with increased complications, such as hospitalization and admission into pediatric intensive care units, especially in patients with underlying asthma ( 1 ). No treatment is available for EV-D68. Previous clusters of EV-D68 have been documented but have not been as widespread as in the 2014 season ( 2 ).

Abstract In order to improve detection limits, many ELISA assays now incorporate fluorogenic substrates in lieu of colorimetric substrates. Here we describe the use of the Synergy HT multi-detection microplate reader for the detection of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) using the fluorogenic substrate Amplex® Red. Introduction Enzyme linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) have been used to quantitate a wide range of compounds and pathogens for almost 40 years. Initially radioactivity was used to quantitate the assays, but radioimmunoassays (RIA) have been replaced with assays utilizing enzymes to obtain colorimetric results. Recently new substrates have been developed to produce fluorescent and luminescent products. The basic tenet of the new assays remains the same as colorimetric assays. The substrate is converted into a measurable compound by the enzymatic activity of proteins conjugated to an antibody, which confers specificity. Figure 1."

Clinical Information Syphilis is a disease caused by infection with the spirochete Treponema pallidum. The infection is systemic and the disease is characterized by periods of latency. These features, together with the fact that T pallidum cannot be isolated in culture, mean that serologic techniques play a major role in the diagnosis and follow-up of treatment for syphilis. Syphilis is categorized by an early primary infection in which patients may have non-specific symptoms, and potentially, genital lesions. Patients tested by serology during the primary phase may be negative for antibodies, especially if testing is performed during the first 1 to 2 weeks after symptom onset. As the disease progresses into the secondary phase, antibodies to T pallidum reach peak titers, and may persist indefinitely regardless of the disease state or prior therapy. Therefore, detection of antibodies to nontreponemal antigens, such as cardiolipin (a lipoidal antigen released by host cells damaged by T pallidum) may help to differentiate between active and past syphilis infection. Nontreponemal antibodies are detected by the rapid plasma reagin (RPR) assay, which is typically positive during current infection and negative following treatment or during late/latent forms of syphilis. For prenatal syphilis screening, the syphilis Ig G test (SYPGN / Syphilis Antibody, Ig G, Serum) is recommended."

"text": "Simple, Cost-Effective Multiplexing of Immunoassays Traditionally, single-analyte, or singleplex, protein detection methods such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) or western blotting have been used sequentially to analyze multiple intracellular and extracellular proteins. Although these are both well-established, validated techniques, they can be time-consuming, sample-depleting, and costly when used to measure numerous markers per sample. Alternatively, Luminex® x MAP® technology enables scientists to measure multiple proteins in a single reaction. The new Luminex® MAGPIX® system is an affordable, compact fluorescent detection system suitable for medium-throughput multiplex immunoassays. Based on proven x MAP® technology, this instrument provides a platform for simple, cost-effective multiplexing of immunoassays, with reproducibility similar to that of ELISAs and western blotting. Advantages of the MAGPIX® System For the past 10 years, two instrument systems for evaluating assays based on x MAP® technology, the Luminex® 200™ and FLEXMAP 3D® sytems, have gained wide acceptance for use in applications including protein expression profiling, focused gene expression profiling, and disease testing. These instruments analyze the results of fluorescent bead–based assays by separating beads using flow cytometry, exciting them with two lasers, and evaluating the results using real-time, digital signal processing and x PONENT® software to distinguish bead color (analyte) and assay signal-strength (PE) fluorescence intensity. In contrast, the MAGPIX® system (Figure 1) immobilizes beads with magnetic force, excites them using light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and detects beads and analytes using a CCD camera. The result is a more compact, robust, and cost-effective multiplexing tool. In addition, streamlined startup and shutdown protocols, and minimal maintenance requirements make the system easy to use—ideal for both new and experienced users."

In molecular biology, a reporter gene (often simply reporter) is a gene that researchers attach to a regulatory sequence of another gene of interest in bacteria, cell culture, animals or plants. Certain genes are chosen as reporters because the characteristics they confer on organisms expressing them are easily identified and measured, or because they are selectable markers. Reporter genes are often used as an indication of whether a certain gene has been taken up by or expressed in the cell or organism population.

Source of all articles published in description is Wikipedia. Thanks to original content developers. Link- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page The hemagglutination assay (or haemagglutination assay; HA) is a method of quantification for viruses or bacteria by hemagglutination. It is an easy, simple and rapid method which can be applied to large numbers of samples. The hemagglutination assay and its extension, the hemagglutination inhibition assay, were invented in 1941--42 by American virologist George Hirst. [ 1] [2] The hemagglutination assay of a virus, in contrast to other forms of virus quantification such as a plaque assay or 50% Tissue Culture Infective Dose, does not give any measure of viral infectivity, because no virus replication is required in this assay. The same may not be true when using HA for bacteria. The detailed conditions depend on the type of virus or bacteria being assayed since certain p H values and ionic strengths can impact the activity of the proteins of interest in a difficult to predict manner. Normally, a virus dilution (e.g. 2-fold from 1:4 to 1:4096) will be applied to an RBC dilution (e.g. 0.1% to 0.7% in steps of 0.2%) for approx. 30 min, often at 4 °C, otherwise viruses with neuraminidase activity will detach the virus from the RBCs."

"text": "The term dilution assay is generally used to designate a special type of bioassay in which one or more preparations (e.g. a drug) are administered to experimental units at different dose levels inducing a measurable biological response. The dose levels are prepared by dilution in a diluent that is inert in respect of the response. The experimental units can for example be cell-cultures, tissues, organs or living animals. The biological response may be quantal (e.g. positive/negative) or quantitative (e.g. growth). The goal is to relate the response to the dose, usually by interpolation techniques, and in many cases to express the potency/activity of the test preparation (s) relative to a standard of known potency/activity. Dilution assays can be direct or indirect. In a direct dilution assay the amount of dose needed to produce a specific (fixed) response is measured, so that the dose is a stochastic variable defining the tolerance distribution. Conversely, in an indirect dilution assay the dose levels are administered at fixed dose levels, so that the response is a stochastic variable.

Most presumptive tests require confirmation. Confirmation can be accomplished using specific reagents and materials. However, due to the critical importance of testing for pathogens and/or objectionable organisms as contaminants; it may be necessary to perform identification of any organisms isolated from samples. Identification measures microorganisms to the species level. Initial Testing For testing of any sample for the presence of microorganisms it is critical to perform a measure of total organism counts (viable organisms). Bio Lumix provides testing for both Total Aerobic Counts (Bacteria) and for Total Yeast and Mold Counts (Fungi). The Bio Lumix system in this regard mimics testing for both bacteria and fungi using USP or BAM plate methodology. In these initial tests for total counts there isn’t any discrimination of objectionable organisms from common organisms and common flora. Objectionable organisms for Nutraceutical Samples as an example may include E coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella or Pseudomonas aeruginosa."

Enterobacteriaceae is often required in the diary business in the production of products such as yoghurt, whey and milk powders. Based on customer requests, an improved version of the Enterobacteriaceae test vial has been made available. Products which formerly needed to be diluted before testing in the Micro Foss Enterobacteriaceae test vial can now be tested directly in the new Enterobacteriaceae BP9 test vial, P/N 1024404. The vial can also be used for very acidic products like yoghurt which formerly had to be diluted before testing. With the Enterobacteriaceae vial it can be tested directly by putting a 1 m L sample in the vial. The vial works in the same way as the present Enterobacteriaceae vial, except that a diluent of 4 m L of buffer is already included in the vial. It complements existing Micro Foss tests for total viable count, Enterobacteriaceae, Coliform, generic E.coli, Lactic Acid Bacteria, yeast and the combined mould and yeast test. The analysis principle used with Micro Foss is exactly the same as traditional microbiological testing, but the system exploits latest technology to simplify procedures and accelerate the delivery of results essential for food safety and quality. As soon as activity levels exceed limits or are found to be below required levels the Micro Foss system gives a visual indication on a computer connected to the system."

Since then, researchers have used a variety of in vitro and in vivo assays to demonstrate that proteins interact with DNA and RNA to influence the structure and function of the corresponding nucleic acid. Elucidating the roles that protein–nucleic acid complexes play in the regulation of transcription, translation, DNA replication, repair and recombination, RNA processing and translocation continues to revolutionize our understanding of cell biology, normal cell development and the mechanisms of disease.

These forces contribute in varying degrees to proteins binding in a sequence-specific (tight) or non–sequence-specific (loose) manner. For example, specific protein–DNA interactions are commonly mediated by an α-helix motif in the protein that inserts itself into the major groove of the DNA, recognizing and interacting with a specific base sequence through H-bonds and salt bridges. In addition, the affinity and specificity of a particular protein–nucleic acid interaction can be increased through protein oligomerization or multi-protein complex formation (e.g., GCN4, glucocorticoid receptor, transcription initiation complexes, m RNA splicing complexes, RISC, etc.). The secondary and tertiary structure formed by nucleic acid sequences (especially in RNA) provides an important additional mechanism by which proteins recognize and bind particular nucleic acid sequences.

Mayer02.02.2015Buprenorphine targets the opioid receptors to elicit pain relief (low doses of 1 mg/day) and treat opioid addiction (higher doses of 2–32 mg/day). Clinicians rely on urinalysis to monitor patient adherence and to detect abuse. Post-metabolism, free buprenorphine concentrations in human urine can be less than 1 ug/L after therapeutic administration. The recommended urine cutoff for total buprenorphine (including metabolites) is 5 μg/L. The available immunoassays offer varying degrees of selectivity and sensitivity because they use different target immunogens to raise the antibodies, resulting in differences in cross-reactivity. The cloned enzyme donor immunoassay (CEDIA, Thermo Scientific) cross-reacts with buprenorphine (100%) and buprenorphine glucuronide (98%) but not with norbuprenorphine or norbuprenorphine glucuronide. It also shows cross-reactivity with tramadol, opioids (codeine, dihydrocodeine and morphine) and atypical antipsychotics (amisulpride and sulpiride). The homogeneous enzyme immunoassay (HEIA) cross-reacts with buprenorphine (100%) and norbuprenorphine (107%) but only very slightly with the respective glucuronides (0.1%). Chromatographic techniques (gas or liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry) offer one way to detect both the parent drug and metabolites with enhanced selectivity and sensitivity.

Jaffe CMAJ November 08, 2005 173 (10) 1191-1202; DOI: https://doi.org/10.1503/cmaj/051291Article Figures & Tables Responses Metrics PDFAbstract It has been known for 50 years that transaminase activity increases in patients with acute myocardial infarction. With the development of creatine kinase (CK), biomarkers of cardiac injury began to take a major role in the diagnosis and management of patients with acute cardiovascular disease. In 2000 the European Society of Cardiology and the American College of Cardiology recognized the pivotal role of biomarkers and made elevations in their levels the “cornerstone” of diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction. At that time, they also acknowledged that cardiac troponin I and T had supplanted CK-MB as the analytes of choice for diagnosis. In this review, we discuss the science underlying the use of troponin biomarkers, how to interpret troponin values properly and how to apply these measurements to patients who present with possible cardiovascular disease. Troponin is the biomarker of choice for the detection of cardiac injury. To use it properly, one must understand how sensitive the specific assay being used is for detecting cardiac injury, the fact that elevated troponin levels are highly specific for cardiac injury and some critical issues related to the basic science of the protein and its measurement. In this article, we review the biology of troponin, characteristics of assays that measure serum troponin levels and how to apply these measurements to patients who present with possible cardiovascular disease. We also discuss other clinical situations in which troponin levels may be elevated. The biology of troponin The 3-unit troponin complex (troponin I, T and C) along with tropomyosin is located on the actin filament and is essential for the calcium-mediated regulation of skeletal and cardiac muscle contraction."

Because surgical biopsies are highly invasive, they are only very rarely repeated and so they only provide a single snapshot of a patient’s cancer at the moment that the tumor or piece of tissue is removed from the patient’s body for initial characterization. In addition, surgical biopsies can only be performed once a cancer has been detected by other means, which too often means the cancer is relatively far along in its development. Enter the fluid biopsy, a method developed by researchers at The Scripps Research Institute Physical Sciences-Oncology Center (Scripps PS-OC) based on technology that captures from a patient’s blood the few circulating tumor cells (CTCs) that have broken away from even small tumors. The findings from this team of investigators show that this highly sensitive blood analysis technology provides information that may soon be comparable to that from some types of surgical biopsies. In addition, this technology provides a patient-specific means of monitoring, predicting, and understanding progression of cancer, including metastasis. Physicist Peter Kuhn, of The Scripps Research Institute, and pathologist Kelly Bethel, of the Scripps Clinic, led the multidisciplinary team that developed the fluid biopsy or high-definition (HD)-CTC assay. Dr. Kuhn is the principal investigator of the Scripps PS-OC and Dr. Bethel is the senior scientific investigator. The team published five papers describing their work, along with an accompanying editorial, in the journal Physical Biology. To identify CTCs, a patient’s blood sample is first cleared of red blood cells and then the remaining cells are fluorescently labeled in a way that distinguishes possible CTCs from ordinary white blood cells."

There is growing concern that the presence of bacterial endotoxins in media and matrices used in cell culture, cell therapy, and tissue engineering applications may induce aberrant cell function and host immune reactions. In vivo endotoxins elicit a pyrogen-like response in proportion to their concentration.

The biuret test is a chemical assay that detects the presence of proteins in a sample. The test relies on a color change to confirm the presence of proteins. If proteins are found, the sample will turn violet. It’s a funny thing, but the biuret test doesn't involve the chemical biuret, which is derived from urea. Biuret isn't a protein, but it gives a positive result to the biuret test. Biuret Reagent The biuret test uses an alkaline mixture, or reagent, composed of potassium hydroxide and copper sulfate. The normal color of biuret reagent is blue. The reagent turns violet in the presence of peptide bonds -- the chemical bonds that hold amino acids together.

Fluorescent markers are used to label the cells, which are examined and analyzed by a computer. “Industrialization of the process is now needed to bring this to broad availability,” Kuhn said. Better Identification of Cells The procedure is known as a High-Definition Circulating Endothelial Cell (HD-CEC) assay. In developing it, researchers took blood samples from 79 patients who had experienced a heart attack and compared them to samples from 25 healthy people and seven patients undergoing treatment for vascular disease who were at high risk for a heart attack. Kuhn said that the technology has been licensed to Epic Sciences who are now \"\"shrink-wrapping it for routine use. ”Take a 3D Look Inside the Human Heart »Researchers said the test can identify endothelial cells better than a commercially available test called Cell Search, which has been approved by the U.

In routine PCR, the critical result is the final quantity of amplicon generated from the assay. Quantitative PCR, or real-time PCR, (q PCR) and reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) use the linearity of DNA amplification to determine absolute or relative quantities of a known sequence in a sample. By using a fluorescent reporter in the reaction, it is possible to measure DNA generation in the q PCR assay. In q PCR, DNA amplification is monitored at each cycle of PCR. When the DNA is in the log linear phase of amplification, the amount of fluorescence increases above the background. The point at which the fluorescence becomes measurable is called the threshold cycle (CT) or crossing point. By using multiple dilutions of a known amount of standard DNA, a standard curve can be generated of log concentration against CT."

For example, the production of viral vaccines, recombinant proteins using viral vectors and viral antigens all require virus quantification to continually adapt and monitor the process in order to optimize production yields and respond to ever changing demands and applications. Examples of specific instances where known viruses need to be quantified include clone screening, multiplicity of infection (MOI) optimization and adaptation of methods to cell culture. This page discusses various techniques currently used to quantify viruses in liquid samples. These methods are separated into two categories, traditional vs. modern methods. Traditional methods are industry-standard methods that have been used for decades but are generally slow and labor-intensive. Modern methods are relatively new commercially available products and kits that greatly reduce quantification time. This is not meant to be an exhaustive review of all potential methods, but rather a representative cross-section of traditional methods and new, commercially available methods.

Generally, the decline in enzyme activity in a p H-profile near the optimum p H range was due to a reversible reaction that involved ionization or deionization of acidic or basic groups in the active centre of the enzyme-protein. Irreversible inactivation of the enzyme was particularly evident at the lower and higher ranges of acidic and alkaline conditions. Results showed that the p H stability of soil enzymes was highly dependent on the soils being assayed. The variation among soils may be attributed to the diversity of vegetation, micro-organisms and soil fauna as sources contributing to the enzyme activity and to the protective sites which allowed entrapment of the enzyme within colloidal humus and organo-mineral complexes. Adherence of the enzyme-protein to the humic-clay fractions would allow some resistance to p H denaturation. Previous article Next article Soi; Biot. Biochem. Vol. 14, pp."

"text": "On This Page Signs and Symptoms Laboratory Diagnostic Procedures Viral Culture RIDTSImmunofluorescence Rapid Molecular Assays Other Molecular Assays Serologic Testing Signs and Symptoms The signs and symptoms of influenza can vary by age, immune status, and presence of underlying medication conditions. Uncomplicated influenza can include any or all of these signs and symptoms: fever, muscle aches, headache, lack of energy, dry cough, sore throat, nasal congestion, and possibly runny nose. Fever is not always present in influenza patients, especially in elderly persons. The fever and body aches can last 3-5 days and the cough and lack of energy may last for 2 or more weeks, especially in the elderly. Influenza can be difficult to diagnose based on clinical signs and symptoms alone because the signs and symptoms of influenza can be similar to those caused by other infectious agents including, but not limited to, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, adenoviruses, respiratory syncytial viruses, rhinoviruses, parainfluenza viruses, and Legionella spp. Complications associated with influenza can vary by age, immune status, and underlying medical conditions. Some examples include worsening of underlying chronic medical conditions (e.g. worsening of congestive cardiac failure; asthma exacerbation; exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease); lower respiratory tract disease (pneumonia, bronchiolitis, croup, respiratory failure); invasive bacterial co-infection; cardiac (e.g. myocarditis); musculoskeletal (e.g. myositis, rhabdomyolysis); neurologic (e.g. encephalopathy, encephalitis); multi-organ failure (septic shock, renal failure, respiratory failure). Appropriate treatment of patients with respiratory illness depends on accurate and timely diagnosis. Early diagnosis of influenza can reduce the inappropriate use of antibiotics and provide the option of using antiviral therapy. However, because certain bacterial infections can produce signs and symptoms similar to influenza, bacterial infections should be considered and appropriately treated, if suspected."

Lee 1and Gowthami M. Arepally 1+ Author Affiliations1Division of Hematology, Department of Medicine, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NCNext Section Abstract Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is a prothrombotic disorder caused by antibodies that recognize complexes of platelet factor 4 (PF4) and heparin. HIT is frequently considered in the differential diagnosis of thrombocytopenia occurring in patients on heparin therapy. HIT is a challenging diagnosis because of routine heparin use in hospitalized patients, the common occurrence of thrombocytopenia, and high rates of anti-PF4/heparin seroconversions in patients treated with heparin. Our diagnostic approach to HIT is presented here, underscoring critical elements of clinical and laboratory evaluation. Previous Section Next Section Introduction Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is a potentially life-threatening immune complication that occurs after exposure to unfractionated heparin (UFH) or, less commonly, to low-molecular-weight heparins (LMWHs). 1 It is characterized by declining platelet counts beginning 5 to 14 days after heparin exposure and occurs in isolation (isolated HIT) or concurrently with new arterial and venous thrombotic complications. 2 HIT is caused by antibodies directed against complexes formed by a platelet protein, platelet factor 4 (PF4), and heparin (H). Circulating immune complexes containing Ig G and PF4/H complexes bind to platelet and monocyte Fc receptors and promote cellular activation, leading to procoagulant microparticle release and thrombin generation. 3, 4Historically, the challenge associated with HIT was a lack of awareness of the syndrome and its pursuant complications; the challenge now is in the overdiagnosis and treatment of HIT. With the widespread availability of screening immunoassays and the desire of clinicians to avoid the thrombotic consequences associated with true disease, many patients without HIT now suffer needless morbidity due to bleeding complications from the use of alternative anticoagulants."

Tiered testing is performed with two goals in mind, to detect all those who have HIV antibody, and to reduce as much as possible the chance of falsely-concluding that HIV antibodies are present when they in fact are not. The screening tests are highly sensitive and specific in but still can lead to many false-positive tests depending on the chances of the test population being HIV infected, and false-negative tests in very early infection (see graphs below).

Human pathogenic neurotoxins of types A, B, E, and F are produced by a diverse group of anaerobic spore-forming bacteria, including Clostridium botulinum groups I and II, Clostridium butyricum, and Clostridium baratii. The routine laboratory diagnostics of botulism is based on the detection of botulinum neurotoxin in the patient. Detection of toxin-producing clostridia in the patient and/or the vehicle confirms the diagnosis. The neurotoxin detection is based on the mouse lethality assay. Sensitive and rapid in vitro assays have been developed, but they have not yet been appropriately validated on clinical and food matrices. Culture methods for C. botulinum are poorly developed, and efficient isolation and identification tools are lacking. Molecular techniques targeted to the neurotoxin genes are ideal for the detection and identification of C. botulinum, but they do not detect biologically active neurotoxin and should not be used alone. Apart from rapid diagnosis, the laboratory diagnostics of botulism should aim at increasing our understanding of the epidemiology and prevention of the disease."

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

To assess the role of Cg A for the diagnosis of gastroenteropancreatic (GEP) NETs and the identification of metastatic patients, an Italian multicenter observational study has been performed. Cg A was evaluated in 202 GEP NET patients by IRMA and ELISA. The cutoffs for diagnosis and presence of metastases were identified by receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve. We found good correlation between IRMA and ELISA. The ROC analysis identified a cutoff of 53 ng/ml for IRMA and 16 U/l for ELISA as discriminating between controls and patients with active disease (sensitivity 71.3 and 84%; specificity 71 and 85% respectively). Metastases were present in 123 patients, having significantly higher Cg A levels than patients without metastases. ROC analysis identified a cutoff of 146 ng/ml for IRMA and 67.3 U/l for ELISA as discriminating between patients with and without metastases (sensitivity 57 and 63.3%; specificity 55.6 and 71.4% respectively). For pancreatic NETs positive and negative predictive values were 84 and 78% respectively (90% specificity and 68% sensitivity).

Fall 12By Dr John Comley Fall 2012Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) have been around as one of the primary methods of analyte detection for more than four decades. Over the years many changes to the basic format have resulted in assay improvements, but some of the most recent look set to take the traditional ELISA to new levels. These include many vendors now addressing the automation of ELISA assays. Some automated platforms include new or alternative ELISA formats typically with miniaturised or microfluidic components. Other automated instrumentation is designed to support the creation/coating of ELISA assay plates or contains cartridge-based delivery of assay reagents to reduce set-up time. New developments in automated plate washing and the minimisation of wash steps are also impacting conventional ELISAs. Perhaps most significantly are the big increases in assay sensitivity and the widening of the dynamic range accomplished by using alternatives to the traditional colorimetric detection, or by the use of new platform technologies. Several of the new offerings utilise bead or particle-based components some of which are advantageous for multiplexing. These are supported by a wide range of ELISA reagents, assay and kits providing relative profiling or absolute quantitation of proteins across a wide range of study areas."

"text": "\"What is ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay)? ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) is a plate-based assay technique designed for detecting and quantifying substances such as peptides, proteins, antibodies and hormones. Other names, such as enzyme immunoassay (EIA), are also used to describe the same technology. In an ELISA, an antigen must be immobilized on a solid surface and then complexed with an antibody that is linked to an enzyme. Detection is accomplished by assessing the conjugated enzyme activity via incubation with a substrate to produce a measureable product. The most crucial element of the detection strategy is a highly specific antibody-antigen interaction.

"text": "Molecular Biology of the Cell Vol. 21, No. 23 MBo C Technical Perspective A Guide to Simple and Informative Binding Assays Thomas D. Pollard Published Online: 13 Oct 2017Sections View Article Tools Share Abstract The aim of binding assays is to measure interactions between two molecules, such as a protein binding another protein, a small molecule, or a nucleic acid. Hard work is required to prepare reagents, but flaws in the design of many binding experiments limit the information obtained. In particular many experiments fail to measure the affinity of the reactants for each other. This essay describes simple methods to get the most out of valuable reagents in binding experiments. INTRODUCTIONOne of the most common experiments in biochemistry and cellular and molecular biology is testing whether two molecules interact with each other. This includes two proteins binding to each other, a small molecule binding to a protein, or a protein binding to a nucleic acid. In spite of apparent simplicity, many binding experiments reported in this and other journals are poorly designed and fall short of extracting all of the useful information available from the valuable reagents that were collected to do the experiment. In particular many experiments fail to measure the affinity of the reactants for each other."

Summary This report updates CDC's 2002 recommendations regarding screening tests to detect Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae infections (CDC. Screening tests to detect Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae infections—2002. MMWR 2002;51 [No. RR-15]) and provides new recommendations regarding optimal specimen types, the use of tests to detect rectal and oropharyngeal C. trachomatis and N. gonorrhoeae infections, and circumstances when supplemental testing is indicated. The recommendations in this report are intended for use by clinical laboratory directors, laboratory staff, clinicians, and disease control personnel who must choose among the multiple available tests, establish standard operating procedures for collecting and processing specimens, interpret test results for laboratory reporting, and counsel and treat patients. The performance of nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs) with respect to overall sensitivity, specificity, and ease of specimen transport is better than that of any of the other tests available for the diagnosis of chlamydial and gonococcal infections. Laboratories should use NAATs to detect chlamydia and gonorrhea except in cases of child sexual assault involving boys and rectal and oropharyngeal infections in prepubescent girls and when evaluating a potential gonorrhea treatment failure, in which case culture and susceptibility testing might be required. NAATs that have been cleared by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the detection of C. trachomatis and N. gonorrhoeae infections are recommended as screening or diagnostic tests because they have been evaluated in patients with and without symptoms."

Skilled laboratory staff can significantly enhance the choice of appropriate tests and the accuracy of clinical response; such involvement requires both appropriate training and relevant information from the clinician. Measurement of the serum thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) concentration with an assay of adequate sensitivity is now the cornerstone of thyroid function testing; for untreated populations at risk of primary thyroid dysfunction, a normal TSH concentration rules out an abnormality with a high degree of certainty. However, in several important situations, most notably pituitary abnormalities and early treatment of thyroid dysfunction, serum TSH can give a misleading indication of thyroid status. An abnormal TSH concentration alone is never an adequate basis for initiation of treatment, which should be based on the typical relationship between trophic and target gland hormones, based on serum TSH and an estimate of serum free thyroxine (T4). Six basic assumptions, some clinical, some laboratory-based, need to be considered, together with the relevant limiting conditions, for reliable use of this relationship. Current methods of free T4 estimation remain imperfect, especially during critical illness. Diagnostic approach differs significantly between initial diagnosis and follow-up of treated thyroid dysfunction. In some situations, serum triiodothyronine (T3) is also required, but serum T3 lacks sensitivity for diagnosis of hypothyroidism, and has poor specificity during non-thyroidal illness. Where assay results are anomalous, most atypical findings can be resolved by attention to the clinical context, without further investigation. ("

View e Journal Order reprints Abstract Cardiac troponin (c Tn) is the primary biomarker for the diagnosis of myocardial necrosis in an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). c Tn levels can also be elevated in many other conditions, including heart failure, with significant prognostic value. An elevated c Tn level can be found in both acute and chronic heart failure and its presence is believed to be due to multiple different pathophysiological processes. In acute decompensated heart failure (AHF), an elevated c Tn level has been repeatedly shown to correlate with increased short- and long-term mortality and, to a lesser extent, readmission rates. These associations have been demonstrated with both I and T isoforms of c Tn, as well as when troponin is measured with conventional assays or new high-sense assays. In multimarker models, c Tn has repeatedly been found to be an independent predictive variable enhancing prognostic ability of the model. c Tn is therefore an important biomarker for prognosis in AHF.

Because surgical biopsies are highly invasive, they are only very rarely repeated and so they only provide a single snapshot of a patient’s cancer at the moment that the tumor or piece of tissue is removed from the patient’s body for initial characterization. In addition, surgical biopsies can only be performed once a cancer has been detected by other means, which too often means the cancer is relatively far along in its development. Enter the fluid biopsy, a method developed by researchers at The Scripps Research Institute Physical Sciences-Oncology Center (Scripps PS-OC) based on technology that captures from a patient’s blood the few circulating tumor cells (CTCs) that have broken away from even small tumors. The findings from this team of investigators show that this highly sensitive blood analysis technology provides information that may soon be comparable to that from some types of surgical biopsies. In addition, this technology provides a patient-specific means of monitoring, predicting, and understanding progression of cancer, including metastasis. Physicist Peter Kuhn, of The Scripps Research Institute, and pathologist Kelly Bethel, of the Scripps Clinic, led the multidisciplinary team that developed the fluid biopsy or high-definition (HD)-CTC assay. Dr. Kuhn is the principal investigator of the Scripps PS-OC and Dr. Bethel is the senior scientific investigator. The team published five papers describing their work, along with an accompanying editorial, in the journal Physical Biology. To identify CTCs, a patient’s blood sample is first cleared of red blood cells and then the remaining cells are fluorescently labeled in a way that distinguishes possible CTCs from ordinary white blood cells."

Blood contaminated CSF samples have the potential to adversely affect results of cytologic, serologic, microbiologic, and molecular biologic diagnostics. A clear consensus of the effects of blood contamination on CSF analysis could not be drawn following a review of the existing veterinary literature. Based on data from earlier reports, it was hypothesized that iatrogenic blood contamination of CSF would result in significant increases in both the CSF total protein (TP) concentration and nucleated cell count (WBC). As hypothesized, in vitro CSF blood contamination resulted in statistically significant (p < 0.01) linear increases in both the CSF TP and WBC with increasing RBC concentration in CSF from sixteen normal dogs. Although increases in TP and WBC are statistically significant, their clinical impact is negligible. Results of this study demonstrate that in normal dogs, the mean CSF TP concentration collected from the cerebellomedullary cistern, is lower than previously reported. D-dimers are plasminolytic cleavage products formed by the cross-linkage of fibrin by Factor XIIIa. In humans, D-dimer analysis can be used to differentiate iatrogenic from pathologic CNS hemorrhage. An additional objective of this study was to determine if canine D-dimers could be assayed using commercially available latex agglutination (LA) and enzymatic immunoassay (EIA) kits in normal and diseased subjects."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search The Enzyme-Linked Immuno Spot ( ELISPOT) assay is a widely used method for monitoring cellular immune responses in humans and other animals, and has found clinical applications in the diagnosis of tuberculosis and the monitoring of graft tolerance or rejection in transplant patients. The ELISPOT technique has proven to be among the most useful means available for monitoring cell-mediated immunity, due to its sensitive and accurate detection of rare antigen-specific T cells (or B cells) and its ability to visualize single positive cells within a population of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). The ELISPOT method was developed by Cecil Czerkinsky’s group in Gothenburg, Sweden in 1983, [1] for the purpose of detecting antigen-specific antibody-secreting cells (ASC) in a B cell ELISPOT assay, which was a modification of a traditional sandwich ELISA immunoassay. The ELISPOT assay has since been more widely adopted for the identification and enumeration of cytokine -producing cells at the single cell level, but is still used for detection of ASC. Simply put, at appropriate conditions the ELISPOT assay allows visualization of the secretory product (s) of individual activated or responding cells. Each spot that develops in the assay represents a single reactive cell. Thus, the ELISPOT assay provides both qualitative (regarding the specific cytokine or other secreted immune molecule) and quantitative (the frequency of responding cells within the test population) information. Due to the exquisite sensitivity of ELISPOT assays, analyses of the frequencies of rare antigen-specific cells within a test population, which had been impossible to perform prior to its development, have now become relatively simple. This exceptional sensitivity derives from the mechanics of the assay method itself. In an ELISPOT assay, the membrane surfaces in a 96-well PVDF -membrane microtiter plate are coated with capture antibody that binds a specific epitope of the cytokine being assayed."

"text": "Surgery Fi-La Immunoassay Tests Immunoassay tests Follow City-Data.com founder on our Forum or @Lech Mazur Definition Immunoassays are chemical tests used to detect or quantify a specific substance, the analyte, in a blood or body fluid sample, using an immunological reaction. Immunoassays are highly sensitive and specific. Their high specificity results from the use of antibodies and purified antigens as reagents. An antibody is a protein (immunoglobulin) produced by B-lymphocytes (immune cells) in response to stimulation by an antigen. Immunoassays measure the formation of antibody-antigen complexes and detect them via an indicator reaction. High sensitivity is achieved by using an indicator system (e.g., enzyme label) that results in amplification of the measured product. Immunoassays may be qualitative (positive or negative) or quantitative (amount measured). An example of a qualitative assay is an immunoassay test for pregnancy. Pregnancy tests detect the presence of human chorionic gonadotropin (h CG) in urine or serum. Highly purified antibodies can detect pregnancy within two days of fertilization."

Here, we employ photo-initiated porous polymer monolith (PPM) as a high-surface area substrate for sandwich assay analysis. PPMs are shown to enhance extraction efficiency by 20-fold from 2 μ l of sample. We further compare the performance of labeled linear probes, quantum dot labeled probes, molecular beacons (MBs) and tentacle probes (TPs). Each probe technology was compared and contrasted with traditional hybridization methods using labeled sample. All probes demonstrated similar sensitivity and greater specificity than traditional hybridization techniques. MBs and TPs were able to bypass a wash step due to their ‘on–off’ signaling mechanism. TPs demonstrated reaction kinetics 37.6 times faster than MBs, resulting in the fastest assay time of 5 min. Our data further indicate TPs had the most sensitive detection limit ( < 1 n M) as well as the highest specificity ( > 1 × 10 4 improvement) among all tested probes in these experiments. By matching the enhanced extraction efficiencies of PPM with the selectivity of TPs, we have created a format for improved sandwich assays."

Assertions should not be used for normal runtime operations like input parameter checks. As a rule of thumb your code should always be able to work correctly if assertion checking is not activated. The behavior of assert () may be configured by assert_options () or by .ini-settings described in that functions manual page. The assert_options () function and/or ASSERT_CALLBACK configuration directive allow a callback function to be set to handle failed assertions.assert () callbacks are particularly useful for building automated test suites because they allow you to easily capture the code passed to the assertion, along with information on where the assertion was made."

While there are a few command-line tools to help you perform some key tasks using Jena, mostly you use Jena by writing Java programs. The examples in this document will be primarily code samples. We also won't be explaining the OWL or RDFS ontology languages in much detail in this document. You should refer to supporting documentation for details on those languages, for example the W3C OWL document index.

"text": "\"C/C++ Assertions and Defining Your Own Assert Macro Posted on August 1, 2010 by NWhy should I use assert??? The assert macro defined in <assert.h> is a C programmer’s best friend. Really. With the plethora of potential pitfalls in the wild world of C, assert presents a simple and lightweight way of assuring that various conditions in your program hold true so that you can develop in a defensive manner – after all, we’re taking nothing for granted and taking no prisoners Runtime assertions should be used judiciously. They establish conditions which absolutely must be true, because if they aren’t true, then there’s something seriously wrong with the logic of your program (read: you botched something somewhere). Consequently they work quite nicely for verifying function/method pre-conditions during development. Assertions are NOT intended for dealing with user/system errors such as invalid input, failure to open a file or a loss in internet connectivity. Another great thing about asserts is that they can be compiled out of code simply by defining NDEBUG. That can also result in some very nasty surprises if any of the code you’re asserting causes side-effects. Imagine a scenario where you’re developing in debug mode and you have some code like this – Attach Parachute () of course returns a boolean value. ?"

Without a thesis statement, the essay may lack an argument, focus, clarity, and continuity.1. There are two major types of thesis statements: explanatory and argumentative. The explanatory thesis announces the subject to the reader; it never declares a stance which needs an argument to defend.

"text": "\"Copying Arrays in Java 6May 29, 2007By Jeff Langr Send Email »More Articles »Tweet The Java language contains some wonderful antiquities. Switch statements, for example, still don't support the notion of switching on String objects. ( The switch statement has, however, been updated to support enum types.) The reason for this appears to date back to the notion of how switch statements were originally designed in C. Whatever the reason, I find it unfortunate that I can't write switch statements around Strings, something that I've wished I could do a few times. System.arraycopy, the method used to rapidly copy the contents of one array to another, appears to have similar legacy underpinnings. Even the name of the method looks like an old style C function such as memcpy. This preferred means of copying arrays in Java hasn't changed since the first release. The arraycopy method, defined as a static method on System, is certainly powerful enough. The System class provides a single general-purpose method: System.arraycopy (source Array, source Start Index, target Array, target Start Index, length);The arraycopy method supports more than just copying the entire contents of a source array into a target. In addition, arraycopy allows for a source and target start index, as well as a length that represents the number of elements to copy."

Traditional assertions (PHP 5 and 7) ¶If the assertion is given as a string it will be evaluated as PHP code by assert () . If you pass a boolean condition as assertion , this condition will not show up as parameter to the assertion function which you may have defined with assert_options () . The condition is converted to a string before calling that handler function, and the boolean FALSE is converted as the empty string. Assertions should be used as a debugging feature only. You may use them for sanity-checks that test for conditions that should always be TRUE and that indicate some programming errors if not or to check for the presence of certain features like extension functions or certain system limits and features. Assertions should not be used for normal runtime operations like input parameter checks. As a rule of thumb your code should always be able to work correctly if assertion checking is not activated. The behavior of assert () may be configured by assert_options () or by .ini-settings described in that functions manual page. The assert_options () function and/or ASSERT_CALLBACK configuration directive allow a callback function to be set to handle failed assertions.assert () callbacks are particularly useful for building automated test suites because they allow you to easily capture the code passed to the assertion, along with information on where the assertion was made."

PCI is the initialism for Peripheral Component Interconnect [2] and is part of the PCI Local Bus standard. The PCI bus supports the functions found on a processor bus but in a standardized format that is independent of any particular processor's native bus. Devices connected to the PCI bus appear to a bus master to be connected directly to its own bus and are assigned addresses in the processor's address space [3]. It is a parallel bus, synchronous to a single bus clock. Attached devices can take either the form of an integrated circuit fitted onto the motherboard itself (called a planar device in the PCI specification) or an expansion card that fits into a slot. The PCI Local Bus was first implemented in IBM PC compatibles, where it displaced the combination of several slow ISA slots and one fast VESA Local Bus slot as the bus configuration. It has subsequently been adopted for other computer types. Typical PCI cards used in PCs include: network cards, sound cards, modems, extra ports such as USB or serial, TV tuner cards and disk controllers. PCI video cards replaced ISA and VESA cards until growing bandwidth requirements outgrew the capabilities of PCI. The preferred interface for video cards then became AGP, itself a superset of conventional PCI, before giving way to PCI Express. ["

Guideline Content2.0 Introduction The guideline content section is structured to provide information on the following key audit and assurance engagement topics: 2.1 Assertions 2.2 Subject matter and criteria 2.3 Assertions developed by third parties 2.4 Conclusion and report2.1 Assertions2.1.1 Assertions are any declaration or set of declarations about whether the subject matter is based on or in conformity with the criteria selected. Professionals should consider these assertions throughout the execution of an audit engagement, obtain assurance on their achievement and express this in the audit report. 2.1.2 Common assertions that may be considered include: Confidentiality —Preserving authorised restrictions on access and disclosure, including means for protecting privacy and proprietary information Completeness —All activities, information and other data that should have been recorded are recorded, e.g., all IT system changes promoted to production are recorded in the change management tracking application Accuracy —Amounts, dates and other data related to recorded activities have been recorded appropriately, e.g., data related to the promotion of IT system changes into production are accurately displayed in the change records of the change management tracking application Integrity —Information, evidence and other data received come from trustworthy and reliable sources, e.g., the change records requested by professionals are received from the compliance manager, a trustworthy and reliable source within the enterprise Availability —Information, evidence and other data required for the audit engagement exist and are accessible, e.g., the requested change records exist and are readily accessible in the change management tracking application Compliance —Information, evidence and other data has been recorded according to the enterprise, regulatory or other applicable stipulations, e.g., required fields, according to the applicable stipulations, are present on the change records of the change management tracking application2.1.3 Management is responsible for defining and approving subject matter and related assertions. Professionals should ensure that any assertions developed by management are what a knowledgeable reader or user would expect compared to other standards of authoritative pronouncements. 2.1.4 A precondition for professionals to accept the audit engagement should be the confirmation from management that it fully understands its responsibility to provide all required information regarding the subject matter and the assertions to professionals. If professionals believe that management will not be able to fulfil this responsibility, they should: Inform IS audit and assurance management and those charged with governance of the identified issue Not accept the proposed audit engagement2.1.5 Professionals should review the selected assertions for the audit engagement and ensure that they are: Sufficient —Enough to meet the purpose of the audit engagement, which is expressing an opinion or conclusion on the subject matter in scope Valid —Able to be tested, given the subject matter in scope Relevant —Have a direct connection to the subject matter in scope and contribute to meeting the purpose of the audit engagement2.2 Subject Matter and Criteria2.2.1 The subject matter of an audit engagement is determined by management and those charged with governance. Usually, the IS audit engagement subject matter will not be as accurately defined as it is with financial audit engagements."

Rights dominate modern understandings of what actions are permissible and which institutions are just. Rights structure the form of governments, the content of laws, and the shape of morality as it is currently perceived. To accept a set of rights is to approve a distribution of freedom and authority, and so to endorse a certain view of what may, must, and must not be done. This entry begins by describing the nature of rights: their classification, their composition, and their function. It then reviews the history of the language of rights, and various relationships between rights and reasons. The major contemporary philosophical approaches to the justification of rights are compared, and the entry concludes by surveying criticisms of rights and “rights talk.” The focus throughout is on general theoretical issues instead of on the analysis or justification of specific rights or types of rights. Those looking for fuller introductions to rights may consider Jones (1994), Harel (2005), Campbell (2006), Ivison (2007) and Edmundson (2012).1. Categories of Rights2."

"text": "\"Google App Engine specific shortcuts In addition to providing direct access to the App Engine services, Gaelyk also adds some syntax sugar on top of these APIs. Let's review some of these improvements. Improvements to the low-level datastore APIAlthough it's possible to use JDO and JPA in Google App Engine, Gaelyk also lets you use the low-level raw API for accessing the datastore, and makes the Entity class from that API a bit more Groovy-friendly. Using Entity s as maps or POJOs/POGOs Note: POGO stands for Plain Old Groovy Object. When you use the Entity class from Java, you have to use methods like set Property () or get Property () to access the properties of your Entity, making the code more verbose than it needs to be (at least in Java). Ultimately, you would like to be able to use this class (and its instances) as if they were just like a simple map, or as a normal Java Bean. That's what Gaelyk proposes by letting you use the subscript operator just like on maps, or a normal property notation. The following example shows how you can access Entity s:import com.google.appengine.api.datastore. Entity Entity entity = new Entity (\"\"person\"\") // subscript notation, like when accessing a map entity ['name'] = \"\"Guillaume Laforge\"\" println entity ['name'] // normal property access notation entity.age = 32 println entity.age Note: For string properties, Google App Engine usually distinguishes between strings longer or shorter than 500 characters. Short strings are just mere Java strings, while longer strings (>500 chars) should be wrapped in a Text instance."

Visual C++ supports assertion statements based on the following constructs: The C run-time library _ASSERT, _ASSERTE Macros. For more information, see Using Macros for Verification and Reporting. The Microsoft Foundation Class (MFC) https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms397186 (v=vs.60).aspx The ANSI C/C++ assert function Programs that use the MFC library should use the MFC ASSERT macro. Programs that use the run-time library should use the runtime _ASSERT macro. Other programs should use the ANSI assert function. Assertion statements compile only when _DEBUG is defined. When _DEBUG is not defined, the compiler treats assertions as null statements. Therefore, assertion statements have zero overhead in your final release program; you can use them liberally in your code without affecting the performance of your release version. Note The expression argument to ASSERT is not evaluated in the release version of your program."

There are several widely used techniques ( algebraic , axiomatic, denotational , operational, and translation ) for the description of the semantics of programming languages. Algebraic semantics describe the meaning of a program by defining an algebra. The algebraic relationships and operations are described by axioms and equations. Axiomatic semantics defines the meaning of the program implicitly. It makes assertions about relationships that hold at each point in the execution of the program. Axioms define the properties of the control structures and state the properties that may be infered."

This element of the syllabus has been examined in the last three sessions of Paper F8 – in June 2010, December 2010 and June 2011. However, the performance of candidates has on the whole been unsatisfactory. This article aims to identify the most common mistakes made by candidates as well as clarifying how audit risk questions should be tackled in order to maximise marks. An example question requirement relating to audit risks is as follows: Describe the audit risks and explain the auditor’s response to each risk in planning the audit of XYZ Co. Previously examined risk questions have carried a mark allocation of 10 marks. However, a significant majority of candidates have not passed this part of the question. Common mistakes made include:providing definitions of the audit risk model, even though this was not part of the question requirementa lack of understanding of what audit risk is and providing business risks insteadnot providing an adequate response to the risk. This needs to be from the perspective of the auditor and not from management’s perspectivea limited range of risks identified, often just focusing on one area such as going concern. Audit risk definitions Audit risk is defined as ‘the risk that the auditor expresses an inappropriate audit opinion when the financial statements are materially misstated. Audit risk is a function of the risks of material misstatement and detection risk’."

Under the SSO setup, Talent LMS can work as a Service Provider (SP) through SAML (Secure Assertion Markup Language) allowing you to provide Single Sign On (SSO) services for your domain. The SSO SAML Integration is available in Basic, Plus and Premium subscription plans. What you will need, is a ADFS 2.0 Identity Provider (Id P) which will handle the sign-in process and will eventually provide the authentication credentials of your users to Talent LMS. Talent LMS users authenticated through your ADFS 2.0 Id P are handled from your Id P and any change they perform on their account (namely first name, last name, and email) are synced back to their Talent LMS account. The only user data that is necessary for Talent LMS is a unique identifier for each user, user's first name, last name and email. Talent LMS does not store passwords. Step 1.

Note that sometimes this is referred to as \"\"strategic technical planning\"\" (STP) applied at a program level, although the preferred use of the STP term is at the enterprise or portfolio level [1]. Keywords: technology evaluation, technology plan, technology planning, technology roadmap MITRE SE Roles and Expectations: MITRE's role as a strategic partner with our sponsors requires us to focus on the up-front planning stages of sponsor programs, including defining the technical direction of a particular program. MITRE systems engineers (SEs) working on technical strategy and planning are expected to understand the vision and mission being addressed by that plan and how technology can be brought to bear on solutions to meet them. MITRE SEs are also expected to acquire and maintain insight into developing technology to provide a timely \"\"honest broker\"\" perspective in technology planning. MITRE SEs are also expected to bridge user and research communities to better align government research investment and direction with future operational mission needs. What Is Technology Planning? For an acquisition program, the technical direction may be defined by generating a program-level technical strategy documented in a technology plan or roadmap. Given the current state and constant change of technology, without common guidance, individual organizations may use their own methods and technologies in ways that can actually hinder adaptation."

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

Services are outputs of the processes that Support them.. If we are able to identify and improve, we should be able to improve the Service. For identifying what services need to improve, the best bet is to perform a Process Assessment for Information Technology Service Management (ITSM). So here iam explaining you what the heck is ISO 15504…The ISO 15504 International standard is a Framework for doing Process Maturity Assessments and continuous Improvement.

This page explains one particular vital, yet missing, aspect of the climate change emergency that the medical profession can respond to. The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) speaks of \"\"dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system\"\" but the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change will not define it. \"\" The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is charged by the United Nations Environment Program to assess climate change risks in a way that informs, but, importantly, does not prescribe the government policies necessary to avoid DAI [dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system]. It is therefore not surprising that the IPCC stops short of defining what DAI actually is, let alone advocating policies designed to avoid it. \"\"— Michael Mann, in Defining dangerous anthropogenic interference (PNAS, March 2009)No formal position on defining dangerous climate change Although it is hard to believe, there is no formal international, national, or science policy position that the world is beyond dangerous interference with the climate system, according to the clear intent and terms of the 1992 UN climate change convention (UNFCCC). The one thing agreed on is that it means a dangerous atmospheric concentration of greenhouse gases. However, even with CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere higher than at any time in the last 15 million years, and with methane concentrations 2.5 times higher since industrialization, we have no agreed policy position that this is beyond dangerous, and there has been no submission to the UN climate change convention secretariat that we are beyond dangerous. The first individual expert to say that we are \"\"beyond dangerous\"\" was John Holdren (science advisor to US President Obama) in his 2006 climate science presentation, Meeting the Climate Change Challenge. Other notable leading climate change scientists who have made public and written statements that we are beyond dangerous climate interference are James Hansen, Hans Schellnhuber, and Bill Hare. Although it is clearly and specifically defined by the UNFCCC, climate change scientists say that \"\"dangerous\"\" cannot be defined by science."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search The threshold limit value ( TLV) of a chemical substance is believed to be a level to which a worker can be exposed day after day for a working lifetime without adverse effects. Strictly speaking, TLV is a reserved term of the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH). TLVs issued by the ACGIH are the most widely accepted occupational exposure limits both in the United States and most other countries. [ 1] However, it is sometimes loosely used to refer to other similar concepts used in occupational health and toxicology, such as acceptable daily intake (ADI) and tolerable daily intake (TDI). Concepts such as TLV, ADI, and TDI can be compared to the no-observed-adverse-effect level (NOAEL) in animal testing, but whereas a NOAEL can be established experimentally during a short period, TLV, ADI, and TDI apply to human beings over a lifetime and thus are harder to test empirically and are usually set at lower levels. TLVs, along with biological exposure indices (BEIs), are published annually by the ACGIH. The TLV is an estimate based on the known toxicity in humans or animals of a given chemical substance, and the reliability and accuracy of the latest sampling and analytical methods. It is not a static definition since new research can often modify the risk assessment of substances and new laboratory or instrumental analysis methods can improve analytical detection limits. The TLV is a recommendation by ACGIH, with only a guideline status. As such, it should not be confused with exposure limits having a regulatory status, like those published and enforced by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)."

The K-12 grade-specific standards define end-of-year expectations and a cumulative progression designed to enable students to meet college and career readiness expectations no later than the end of high school. The CCR and high school (grades 9-12) standards work in tandem to define the college and career readiness line—the former providing broad standards, the latter providing additional specificity. Hence, both should be considered when developing college and career readiness assessments. Students advancing through the grades are expected to meet each year’s grade-specific standards, retain or further develop skills and understandings mastered in preceding grades, and work steadily toward meeting the more general expectations described by the CCR standards. Grade levels for K-8; grade bands for 9-10 and 11-12The Standards use individual grade levels in kindergarten through grade 8 to provide useful specificity; the Standards use two-year bands in grades 9-12 to allow schools, districts, and states flexibility in high school course design. A focus on results rather than means By emphasizing required achievements, the Standards leave room for teachers, curriculum developers, and states to determine how those goals should be reached and what additional topics should be addressed. Thus, the Standards do not mandate such things as a particular writing process or the full range of metacognitive strategies that students may need to monitor and direct their thinking and learning. Teachers are thus free to provide students with whatever tools and knowledge their professional judgment and experience identify as most helpful for meeting the goals set out in the Standards. An integrated model of literacy Although the Standards are divided into Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening, and Language strands for conceptual clarity, the processes of communication are closely connected, as reflected throughout this document."

The main aspects are as follows: Defining the enterprise Identifying key drivers and elements in the organizational context Defining the requirements for architecture work Defining the Architecture Principles that will inform any architecture work Defining the framework to be used Defining the relationships between management frameworks Evaluating the enterprise architecture maturity The enterprise architecture provides a strategic, top-down view of an organization to enable executives, planners, architects, and engineers to coherently co-ordinate, integrate, and conduct their activities. The enterprise architecture framework provides the strategic context for this team to operate within. Therefore, developing the enterprise architecture is not a solitary activity and the enterprise architects need to recognize the interoperability between their frameworks and the rest of the business. Strategic, interim, and tactical business objectives and aspirations need to be met. Similarly, the enterprise architecture needs to reflect this requirement and allow for operation of architecture discipline at different levels within the organization. Depending on the scale of the enterprise and the level of budgetary commitment to enterprise architecture discipline, a number of approaches may be adopted to sub-divide or partition architecture teams, processes, and deliverables. Approaches for architecture partitioning are discussed in Part V, 40."

Goran, rn, msn, Maine Health Vital Network, 200 Washington Ave, Suite 200, Portland, ME 04103 (e-mail: [email protected] ). Next Section Abstract Background Many hospitals have well-planned nursing competency assessment programs, but these are meant to measure competency in traditional bedside roles, not in tele–intensive care unit (tele-ICU) nurses practicing remotely. Objective To determine whether current tele-ICU programs have a formal competency assessment program and to determine when and how competency of tele-ICU nurses is assessed. Method A 20-question survey was provided to a convenience sample of the 44 known tele-ICU programs nationally. Results Of the surveys distributed, 75% were completed and returned. A formal competency assessment policy for assessing nurses’ competency at the time of hire, during orientation, and ongoing was in place at the workplaces of 85% of respondents. The most common methods for competency validation were performance appraisal and observation, although peer review and self-assessment also were used. Respondents identified the following competencies as the highest priorities for defining tele-ICU nurse practice: effective listening, prioritization, collaboration, and effective use of tele-ICU application tools. Conclusion Although awaiting development of professional practice standards, many tele-ICU programs currently measure the competence of tele-ICU nurses through competency programs."

State Electronic Disease Surveillance Systems --- United States, 2007 and 2010Weekly October 21, 2011 / 60 (41);1421-1423The National Electronic Disease Surveillance System (NEDSS) is a web-based infrastructure for public health surveillance data exchange between CDC and the 50 states ( 1 ). In 2007, the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists (CSTE) conducted an assessment to evaluate states' electronic disease surveillance capacity ( 2 ). In 2010, CSTE conducted a follow-up assessment to evaluate the operational status and progress of integration, interoperability, and capacity of state electronic disease surveillance systems. This report summarizes the results of that assessment, which indicated a 17.5% increase from 40 states in 2007 to 47 states in 2010 with fully operational general communicable disease (GCD) electronic surveillance systems, a 211.5% increase from 13 to 39 states in the number of systems that were interoperable, a 22.4% increase from 23 to 34 states in the number with integrated systems, and a 20.0% increase to 42 states with the capacity to receive electronic laboratory reports (ELRs). New Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services rules for meaningful use of health information technology encourage data exchange between electronic health record systems and public health agencies, including submission of ELRs ( 3 ). To meet national goals for health information exchange to improve population health, variation in disease surveillance systems should decrease, and functionality should increase. In 2009, an ad hoc CSTE working group developed a questionnaire to assess progress in electronic disease surveillance system development, functionality, and capacity."

Participatory development is the most important approach towards enabling communities to help themselves and sustain efforts in development work. Communities are no longer seen as recipients of development programmes; rather, they have become critical stakeholders that have an important role to play in the management of programmes and projects in their areas. This training is the first step towards building their capacities to effectively participate in identifying and responding to community issues and problems in development projects. Community stakeholders are community-based mechanisms that can help support and sustain a programme or project. For example, in implementing education projects, the mechanism can be the school governing council or the parents, teachers and community association. This 5-day skills building and application training aims to build a framework to assess, develop and monitor the capacity of communities in development programmes and projects. Participants learn to formulate an appropriate training curriculum that best responds to the needs of the community stakeholders, their mandate and responsibilities. The course starts with reflection and discussion on the role of different stakeholders in development work, the meaning and characteristics of capacity building for communities and how capacity building of communities helps in ensuring programme/project success and sustainability. The course then focuses on how to identify and map different community groups relevant to the programme/project, how to assess their needs and expectations and how to develop an appropriate training needs instrument."

Interim assessments are usually administered periodically during a course or school year (for example, every six or eight weeks) and separately from the process of instructing students. ( In education, the term assessment refers to the wide variety of methods that educators use to evaluate, measure, and document the academic readiness, learning progress, and skill acquisition of students. ) Defining interim assessment is complicated by the fact that educators use a variety of terms for these forms of assessment—such as benchmark assessment or predictive assessment —and the terms may or may not be used synonymously. It should also be noted that there is often confusion and debate about the distinctions between formative assessments and interim assessments, and educators may define the terms differently from school to school or state to state. Generally speaking, interim assessments fall between formative assessment and summative assessment, and understanding their intended purpose requires an understanding of the basic distinctions between these two assessment strategies. Formative Assessment vs. Summative Assessment Formative assessments are used collect detailed information that educators can use to improve instructional techniques and student learning while it’s happening. Summative assessments, on the other hand, are used to evaluate learning progress and achievement at the conclusion of a specific instructional period—usually at the end of a project, unit, course, semester, program, or school year. In other words, formative assessments are for learning, while summative assessments are of learning. Or as assessment expert Paul Black put it, “When the cook tastes the soup, that’s formative assessment."

Editor: Nate, thank you for talking to us today about your introductory class on vulnerability assessments, clearly an essential element of engineering cyber defenses. How does someone get started learning this area of expertise? Nate Adams: In our class, we cover a general methodology that defines, shapes, and makes repeatable the process of system vulnerability assessment. We do this by building on the commonalities of computing technologies, really just the basics, so that some groundwork is established for developing quality assessments. After presenting a methodology, we review common vulnerabilities in various computing technologies such as operating systems, network devices, databases, and applications. The class also dives a bit into the use of a number of basic security tools, like vulnerability and port scanners, client-side web proxies, network protocol analyzers, and some hands-on testing techniques for using these tools to discover vulnerabilities in systems.

Generally speaking, summative assessments are defined by three major criteria: The tests, assignments, or projects are used to determine whether students have learned what they were expected to learn. In other words, what makes an assessment “summative” is not the design of the test, assignment, or self-evaluation, per se, but the way it is used—i.e., to determine whether and to what degree students have learned the material they have been taught. Summative assessments are given at the conclusion of a specific instructional period, and therefore they are generally evaluative, rather than diagnostic—i.e., they are more appropriately used to determine learning progress and achievement, evaluate the effectiveness of educational programs, measure progress toward improvement goals, or make course-placement decisions, among other possible applications. Summative-assessment results are often recorded as scores or grades that are then factored into a student’s permanent academic record, whether they end up as letter grades on a report card or test scores used in the college-admissions process. While summative assessments are typically a major component of the grading process in most districts, schools, and courses, not all assessments considered to be summative are graded. Summative assessments are commonly contrasted with formative assessments, which collect detailed information that educators can use to improve instruction and student learning while it’s happening.

Who should be designated as a VP and how do you show employees a sense of career progression? How do you decide how much to pay the new hire? And what salary increments to give to your existing team? These are perplexing questions for any early stage venture. In a large corporate, there is an established grade structure and career ladder, with salary benchmarks defined for each position and grade. Each company has its own rationale for creating these but the typical approach is to assess the worth of each job through job evaluation. The fundamental premise of this is that jobs are static and that responsibilities are clearly defined. It is seldom so at a startup. It is virtually impossible to delineate roles and responsibilities in the dynamic growth environment that startups operate in."

Accounting Historical cost Constant purchasing power Management Tax Major types [show]Key concepts [show]Selected accounts [show]Accounting standards [show]Financial statements [show]Bookkeeping [show]Auditing [show]People and organizations [show]Development [show]Business portalv t e In financial accounting, an asset is an economic resource. Anything tangible or intangible that can be owned or controlled to produce value and that is held by a company to produce positive economic value is an asset. Simply stated, assets represent value of ownership that can be converted into cash (although cash itself is also considered an asset). [ 1]The balance sheet of a firm records the monetary [2] value of the assets owned by that firm. It covers money and other valuables belonging to an individual or to a business. [ 1] One can classify assets into two major asset classes: tangible assets and intangible assets. Tangible assets contain various subclasses, including current assets and fixed assets. [ 3] Current assets include inventory, while fixed assets include such items as buildings and equipment. ["

"text": "Assets, liability and equity Most people have heard of assets, liabilities and equity. Especially when they had dealings with accounting at school or in a course or when doing practical bookkeeping. It’s important to really understand these concepts since they are at the foundation of much of what we do in accounting. Assets What are assets? For accounting purposes here is a good working definition of what assets are:assets belong to the businessassets have a re-sale value, or a cash value andassets are usually used for the running of the business and generating income. Some examples of assets include cars, equipment or machines, land and buildings, cash in the bank, money owed to the company (debtors), patents or trademarks, and stock. Distinctions are also made between different kinds of assets. Financial statements will sometimes describe some assets as fixed, or as current assets. Fixed assets are assets that a business is planning to hold on to for a long period of time. At least longer than 12 months."

Introductory Notes Organizational process assets enable consistent process performance across the organization and provide a basis for cumulative, long-term benefits to the organization. ( See the definition of “organizational process assets” in the glossary. ) The organization’s process asset library is a collection of items maintained by the organization for use by the organization’s people and projects. This collection of items includes descriptions of processes and process elements, descriptions of lifecycle models, process tailoring guidelines, process-related documentation, and data. The organization’s process asset library supports organizational learning and process improvement by allowing the sharing of best practices and lessons learned across the organization. The acquirer’s organizational process assets also include acquisition guidance and practices established for use across acquisition projects and which refer to applicable statutes and regulations. The organization’s set of standard processes also describes standard interactions with suppliers. Supplier interactions are characterized by the following typical items: deliverables expected from suppliers, acceptance criteria applicable to those deliverables, standards (e.g., architecture and technology standards), and standard milestone and progress reviews. The organization’s set of standard processes is tailored by projects to create their defined processes."

"text": "\"MARKET VALUE & FAIR MARKET VALUENo value opinion can have meaning without first being defined. The intended use of an appraisal dictates which definition of market (or other) value is applicable to a specific assignment. Example: Market Value and fair market value are not the same thing. IRS internal documents tend to suggest that these values are ‘very similar’ or ‘nearly the same’ when they are not remotely close. In the case of IRS interpretations, even fair market value has several different fair market value definitions depending on which section of the tax code they are used with. The first step in hiring an appraiser is to make sure that he or she fully understands the specific value definition applicable to your problem. Preparing an appraisal for a multi million dollar property based on market value only to find fair market value was required is ‘not easily corrected’. Usually the problem is only discovered after the fact, and after deadlines have passed. By that time it is too late to avoid potentially negative repercussions. The following is a partial list of common values and their definitions, for which appraisals are obtained: It is generally conceded under most widely accepted definitions of market value that the definition incorporates the concept that market value “reflects the collective perceptions and actions of a market,” not the “preconceived view or vested interest of a particular individual."

"text": "\"Derivatives Implementation Group Statement 133 Implementation Issue No. G2Title: Cash Flow Hedges: Hedged Transactions That Arise from Gross Settlement of a Derivative (\"\"All-in-One\"\" Hedges)Paragraph references:9, 28, 29, 540Date cleared by Board: March 31, 1999QUESTIONMay a derivative instrument that is expected to be settled gross be designated as the hedging instrument in a cash flow hedge of the forecasted transaction that will be consummated upon gross settlement of the derivative contract itself? If a derivative instrument also satisfies the definition of a firm commitment, how does that affect the accounting for the instrument? BACKGROUNDSettling a forward contract gross involves delivery of an asset in exchange for the payment of cash or other assets and is differentiated from settling net, which typically involves a payment for the change in a contract's value as the method of settling the contract. The following are examples of transactions covered by this Issue: Example 1 Company A plans to purchase a nonfinancial asset. To fix the price to be paid (that is, to hedge the price), Company A enters into a contract that meets Statement 133's definition of a firm commitment with an unrelated party to purchase the asset at a fixed price at a future date. Assume that the terms of the contract (such as net settlement under the default provisions) or the nature of the asset cause the contract to meet Statement 133's definition of a derivative instrument and the contract is not excluded by paragraph 10 from the scope of Statement 133. As such, Company A has entered into a derivative contract under which it is expected to take delivery of the asset. The issue is whether Company A may designate the fixed-price purchase contract (that is, the derivative instrument) as a cash flow hedge of the variability of the consideration to be paid for the purchase of the asset (that is, the forecasted transaction) given that the derivative instrument is the same contract under which the asset itself will be acquired. Example 2 Company B plans to purchase U. S. government bonds and expects to classify those bonds in its available-for-sale portfolio."

"text": "Going Concern Concept Definition It is assumed that the business will continue to operate in the foreseeable future (as far as one can predict). Therefore, there is no intention of closing down. This concept may not be applied if there are evidences or conditions requiring the ceasing of business – for example persistent losses or liquidity problem. Implication Assets are valued at historical cost less aggregate depreciation and not at disposable value since there is no intention to dispose of them. Historical Cost Concept Definition Transactions are recorded in terms of the actual amount at which they occurred in the past. This concept has the advantage of being objective. The amount at which a transaction took place cannot be disputed over, which is also the amount found on the document issued or received during the transaction. This concept, therefore, eliminates subjectivity associated with valuation in accounting records. Implication Assets and expenses are recorded at the actual amount spent. Revenues are recorded at actual amount received/ receivable."

"text": "\"Facebook Twitter Reddit Email Print Section 802 of the USA PATRIOT Act (Pub. L. No. 107-52) expanded the definition of terrorism to cover \"\"\"\"domestic,\"\"\"\" as opposed to international, terrorism. A person engages in domestic terrorism if they do an act \"\"dangerous to human life\"\" that is a violation of the criminal laws of a state or the United States, if the act appears to be intended to: (i) intimidate or coerce a civilian population; (ii) influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion; or (iii) to affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination or kidnapping. Additionally, the acts have to occur primarily within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States and if they do not, may be regarded as international terrorism. Section 802 does not create a new crime of domestic terrorism. However, it does expand the type of conduct that the government can investigate when it is investigating \"\"terrorism.\"\" The USA PATRIOT Act expanded governmental powers to investigate terrorism, and some of these powers are applicable to domestic terrorism. The definition of domestic terrorism is broad enough to encompass the activities of several prominent activist campaigns and organizations. Greenpeace, Operation Rescue, Vieques Island and WTO protesters and the Environmental Liberation Front have all recently engaged in activities that could subject them to being investigated as engaging in domestic terrorism."

Generally, the process focuses on the later stages of a facility’s life cycle specifically maintenance, rehabilitation, and replacement. Asset management specifically uses software tools to organize and implement these strategies with the fundamental goal to preserve and extend the service life of long-term infrastructure assets which are vital underlying components in maintaining the quality of life in society and efficiency in the economy.

Sometimes the term infrastructure management is used to mean the same thing, most notably in title of The International Infrastructure Management Manual (2000, first edition). Where there is no problem of confusion, the term asset management is more widely used, as in the professional societies: the Asset Management Council in Australia, and the Institute of Asset Management in the UK. In this context, infrastructure is a wide term denoting road and rail, water, power, etc. assets. Road asset management is part of infrastructure asset management including all the physical assets on the road network such as roads, bridges, culverts and road furniture. The first published use of the term asset management to refer to physical assets is not known for sure."

"text": "Asset Purchase Agreement (APA)Definition - What does Asset Purchase Agreement (APA) mean? An asset purchase agreement (APA) is a definitive agreement that finalizes all terms and conditions related to the purchase and sale of a company's assets. It is different from a stock purchase agreement (SPA) where company shares, including title to the assets and liabilities, are being bought/sold. An APA covers the following sections: Interpretation: Provides the definitions for all major terms used in the overall body of the agreement Purchase and sale of stock: Itemizes the purchase price, any purchase price adjustments, purchase price allocation for tax purposes between seller and buyer and dispute resolution mechanisms Representations and warranties of the seller and buyer: Provides all statements that the seller and buyer are signing off to be true Matters related to employees: Provides terms on how employee benefits and any accrued bonuses should be handled post transaction Indemnifications: Provides details of all indemnifications for any costs that may arise post transaction as a result of conditions that existed prior to the deal closing Tax matters: Specifies any special tax treatment entitles to the seller or buyer Divestopedia explains Asset Purchase Agreement (APA)The basic difference between an APA and SPA is the clear itemization of assets included and excluded in the purchase. When a buyer purchases the shares of a company, this itemization is not necessary because the company's ownership transfers as is, including titles to all assets and liabilities - disclosed or undisclosed. With an asset purchase, the buyer may be selecting only specific assets, leaving behind redundant assets. Thus, the selected assets must be itemized in a schedule to the APA. Similarly, any material contracts that are assumed, such as key customer contracts, also must be itemized in an APA because they stay with the selling company unless assigned over. As part of due diligence for an asset purchase, a buyer must ensure that all assigned customer contracts do not have specific clauses prohibiting such contract assignments."

Importance of Depreciation to Fixed Assets An increasing Depreciation to Fixed Assets ratio may indicate the company has purchased new fixed assets, showing the company is making improvements to its operations.

The pool of assets is typically a group of small and illiquid assets which are unable to be sold individually. Pooling the assets into financial instruments allows them to be sold to general investors, a process called securitization, and allows the risk of investing in the underlying assets to be diversified because each security will represent a fraction of the total value of the diverse pool of underlying assets. The pools of underlying assets can include common payments from credit cards, auto loans, and mortgage loans, to esoteric cash flows from aircraft leases, royalty payments and movie revenues. Often a separate institution, called a special purpose vehicle, is created to handle the securitization of asset backed securities. The special purpose vehicle, which creates and sells the securities, uses the proceeds of the sale to pay back the bank that created, or originated, the underlying assets. The special purpose vehicle is responsible for \"\"bundling\"\" the underlying assets into a specified pool that will fit the risk preferences and other needs of investors who might want to buy the securities, for managing credit risk – often by transferring it to an insurance company after paying a premium – and for distributing payments from the securities. As long as the credit risk of the underlying assets is transferred to another institution, the originating bank removes the value of the underlying assets from its balance sheet and receives cash in return as the asset backed securities are sold, a transaction which can improve its credit rating and reduce the amount of capital that it needs. In this case, a credit rating of the asset backed securities would be based only on the assets and liabilities of the special purpose vehicle, and this rating could be higher than if the originating bank issued the securities because the risk of the asset backed securities would no longer be associated with other risks that the originating bank might bear. A higher credit rating could allow the special purpose vehicle and, by extension, the originating institution to pay a lower interest rate (and hence, charge a higher price) on the asset-backed securities than if the originating institution borrowed funds or issued bonds."

Sign Up at roadmap.com12 Answers Nick Lewis Answered Dec 6, 2014 · Author has 181 answers and 677.9k answer views Great question. We start by quoting Investopedia - Educating the world about finance: CAPM - @ Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) Definition | Investopedia The Capital Asset Pricing Model says that the expected return of a security or a portfolio equals the rate on a risk-free security plus a risk premium. If this expected return does not meet or beat the required return, then the investment should not be undertaken. WACC - @ Weighted Average Cost Of Capital (WACC) Definition | Investopedia The Weighted Average Cost of Capital is used to calculate a particular company's cost of capital, the combination of the cost of equity and the cost of debt. A company's assets are financed by either debt or equity, and the WACC is the average of the costs of these sources of financing, each of which is weighted by its respective use in the given situation. By taking a weighted average, we can see how much interest the company has to pay for every dollar it finances. So, combining the two, you can use CAPM to calculate the cost of equity, then use that to calculate WACC by adding the cost of debt, usually the tax-effected average interest for all of the company's debt.33.4k Views · View Upvoters Your response is private.

SSI is funded by the Government’s General Fund, not by Social Security. Overview Supplemental Security Income is provided to financially needy seniors that have extremely limited income and assets. The program evaluates one's income and fills in the gap to bring their income up to a pre-set amount determined and revised annually by the federal government. Therefore, the benefit amount that an individual receives is dependent on their income. For most seniors, the average additional benefit SSI provides is approximately $400 / month. The maximum benefit amount for 2017 is $735 for a single individual and $1,103 for a married couple. While this alone cannot cover the cost of home care or assisted living, there is no time limit on receiving assistance. One can continue to receive help for as long as they are financially eligible. In addition, most states offer a supplement to the federal SSI payments called State Supplementary Payments (SSP) or Optional State Supplements (OSS), which increases one’s total SSI payment."

"text": "Guide to State Investment Adviser Registration Exemptions for Private Fund Advisers While private fund advisers are often exempt from registering with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as an investment adviser due to certain exemptions under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, private fund advisers must still often contend with state investment adviser registration requirements. These state registration requirements arise in two situations. The first situation is where a fund adviser has less than $25 million in assets under management. In such instance, the fund adviser is not required to register with the SEC and is in fact prohibited from doing so. Given this outright exemption, a fund adviser with less than $25 million under management does not need to rely on the private fund adviser exemption (i.e. which covers advisers that only advise private funds and have assets under management of less than $150 million) or the venture capital fund adviser exemption, which means that it is not considered an “ exempt reporting adviser ” and is not required by federal law to file a truncated Form ADV. However, if the state in which the fund adviser’s office is located does require it to register as an investment adviser with the state’s securities commissioner, then it will need to do so. If the state does not require it to register, then it will not need to register with either the SEC or the state, nor will it need to file a truncated Form ADV. The second situation in which the state registration requirement arises is where the fund adviser has $25 million or more under management but is otherwise exempt under the private fund adviser exemption or the venture capital fund adviser exemption. In this instance, if the state does not require the fund adviser to register, then it will be required to file a truncated Form ADV with the SEC as an exempt reporting adviser, but no registration will be required. If the state does require the fund adviser to register, then it must register with the state’s securities commissioner and may also be required to file a truncated Form ADV with the SEC as an exempt reporting adviser if the private fund adviser has assets under management of $110 million or more."

C., July 1, 2005 - On June 29, 2005, the Commission voted to adopt changes to rules regarding various processes regulated under the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933; voted to adopt regulations to deter fraud and abuse in the securities markets through the use of shell companies; and considered matters remanded to the Commission by the U. S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.1. Rules Regarding Securities Offering Reform The Commission voted to adopt modifications to the registration, communications, and offering processes under the Securities Act of 1933. Categories of Issuers In many cases, the amount of flexibility granted to issuers under the reforms is contingent on the characteristics of the issuer, including the type of issuer, the issuer's reporting history, and the issuer's equity market capitalization or amount of previously registered non-convertible securities, other than common equity. The rules divide issuers into four categories. A well-known seasoned issuer is a new class of issuer that is current and timely in its Exchange Act reports for at least one year and has either $700 million of worldwide public common equity float or has issued $1 billion of non-convertible securities, other than common equity, in registered offerings for cash, in the preceding three years. A seasoned issuer is a primary shelf eligible issuer. An unseasoned issuer is an issuer that is required to file reports pursuant to Sections 13 or 15 (d) of the Exchange Act, but is not a primary shelf eligible issuer. A non-reporting issuer is an issuer that is not required to file reports pursuant to Sections 13 or 15 (d) of the Exchange Act. The most significant revisions to the Commission's communications rules and registration processes apply to well-known seasoned issuers. Liberalizing Communications Around the Time of Registered Offerings The rules update and liberalize permitted offering activity and communications to allow more information to reach investors by revising the \"\"gun-jumping\"\" provisions under the Securities Act."

You can claim the amount of expenses that is more than 2% of your adjusted gross income. You figure your deduction on Schedule A by subtracting 2% of your adjusted gross income from the total amount of these expenses. Your adjusted gross income is the amount on Form 1040, line 38, or Form 1040NR, line 37. Generally, you apply the 2% limit after you apply any other deduction limit. For example, you apply the 50% (or 80%) limit on business-related meals and entertainment (discussed later under Travel, Transportation, Meals, Entertainment, Gifts, and Local Lodging) before you apply the 2% limit. Deductions subject to the 2% limit are discussed in the following three categories. Unreimbursed employee expenses (Schedule A (Form 1040), line 21 or Schedule A (Form 1040NR), line 7).

"text": "\"» Articles » Construction Articles » Article January 08, 2014 Author: William Mendenhall Organization: Baker Donelson A ground lease offers an attractive structure for the development of commercial real estate, allowing a land owner to retain title to the property. However, the lease must contain certain minimal provisions in order to be financeable. During recent years, the financeable ground lease has become one of the most popular vehicles for retail development. Rather than purchasing land required for a development, a commercial developer or retail business may elect to lease the land and construct its improvements on leased property rather than owned property. The reasons for the choice of this structure are varied, including the tenant's desire for flexibility and planning, or the landlord's desire to realize a long-term stream of income from his property without investing the time and capital needed to construct improvements. Regardless of the reason, the successful development of a retail property under a ground lease structure will depend directly upon the financeability of the ground lease. In general terms, a financeable ground lease is a lease that contains provisions that protect the tenant's lender in anticipation that the tenant will mortgage the lease as collateral for a loan. For a large percentage of tenants, a ground lease development will only be feasible if the tenant can obtain favorable lease financing. Commercial lenders are willing to lend funds only if the collateral for the loan provides adequate security from which the lender can be repaid in the event of a default. In this regard, ground leases present unique challenges to lenders."

Fraud occurs when someone knowingly lies to obtain a benefit or advantage to which they are not otherwise entitled or someone knowingly denies a benefit that is due and to which someone is entitled. According to the law, the crime of insurance fraud can be prosecuted when: The suspect had the intent to defraud. Insurance fraud is a \"\"specific\"\" intent crime. This means a prosecutor must prove that the person involved knowingly committed an act to defraud. An act is completed. Simply making a misrepresentation (written or oral) to an insurer with knowledge that is untrue is sufficient. The act and intent must come together. One without the other is not a crime."

"text": "\"What does an Actuary do? An actuary is a combination of business executive, mathematician, financier, sociologist, and investment manager. Actuaries are problem solvers who use actuarial science to define, analyze, and solve the financial, economic, and other business applications of future events. The actuary's responsibilities date back to the early 1800's, when most actuarial work centered on developing mortality tables and life insurance policies. Today most actuaries are best known for their work in the insurance and pension fields, where they design financially secure benefit programs to protect people. But that is changing, and actuaries are finding themselves involved in many other areas. Trained to analyze uncertainty, risk, and probabilities, actuaries create and manage programs which will reduce the adverse financial impact of the expected and unexpected things that happen to people and businesses. These programs focus on areas such as life, health, property, casualty, and investment possibilities. Projects with which actuaries may be involved can be as varied as: Determining a company's monetary value in a merger or acquisition. Estimating the impact of seat-belt laws in automobile losses and determining appropriate rate discounts."

"text": "Home Learning Center Home Article Property and Casualty Insurance Get a Homeowner Insurance Quote Find an Agent What Is Property and Casualty Insurance? Property and casualty insurance is actually an umbrella term which includes many forms of insurance. Homeowners insurance is one type of property and casualty product, as is renters insurance, auto insurance, and powersports insurance. The term property and casualty insurance typically contains two primary coverage types: liability coverage and property protection coverage. As it relates to a homeowners insurance policy, property and casualty insurance may cover your belongings and/or another individual’s expenses in the aftermath of an accident occurring from the result of your negligence. For instance, if a guest suffers an injury in your home as a result of your negligence, property and casualty can cover their medical bills, pain and suffering, and loss of income. Negligence would come into play if, for instance, you have put off repairing broken stairs in your home and your guest is injured on these stairs as a result. Property and casualty insurance may also help cover legal fees in the event you are sued by that individual. However, property and casualty insurance can also cover losses relating to your home and belongings in the event of a covered accident. In short, property and casualty insurance can help pay costs that you’re legally responsible for, up to your policy limits."

"text": "A Fresh Look at Rating Territories for Auto and Homeowners Insurance By Jeffrey L. Kucera | September 6, 2004Email This Print Newsletters Tweet Article 2 Comments Inaccurate Territories and Assignments Hurt Consumers, Agents and Companies Territories offer tremendous opportunities for insurance companies to better segment their book of business, but private passenger auto and homeowners insurance companies, in general, are not using territories as effectively as they should for two reasons. First, insurers are often not as accurate with the assignment of territories as they intend. Second, companies generally do not keep their rating territories and relativities as up-to-date as they could, particularly with changing demographics. Territorial Accuracy The accuracy with which an individual risk is assigned to a rating territory is often not as great as companies believe. So what is the problem with a few miscoded risks? From an agent’s perspective, if the risk is overpriced, it may be harder to write because everything else being equal, competitors will have a lower price. If the risk is underpriced, it will affect the agent’s loss ratio. For consumers, it means paying an incorrect premium. If that premium is too low, the customer probably does not care. If it is too high, not only might the customer be due a refund, they also may decide to leave for a competitor that assigns the customer to the correct territory and has a lower premium."

AIG Commercial Umbrella Liability Policy Crisis Response Coverage Summary: This article presents a description and an analysis of a commercial umbrella liability policy developed by American International Group (AIG). The policy has an edition date of July 2002 and contains an AIG specialty named Crisis Response. Topics covered: Insuring agreement IInsuring agreement IIDefense provisions Limits of insurance Exclusions Conditions Definitions Insuring Agreement IThis insuring agreement commits the insurer to pay on behalf of the insured those sums in excess of the retained limit (a defined term) that the insured becomes legally obligated to pay as damages by reason of liability imposed by law. This pertains to bodily injury (BI), property damage (PD), or personal injury (PI) and advertising injury (AI) to which the umbrella insurance applies, or to bodily injury or property damage to which the insurance applies assumed by the insured under an insured contract (a defined term). For this insurance to be applicable, the bodily injury or property damage has to be caused by an occurrence that takes place anywhere and occurs during the policy period. The same is true for personal injury and advertising injury coverage. So, the policy is an occurrence type policy. This insuring agreement also contains the known loss language which prohibits coverage if the BI, PD, PI, or AI occurs prior to the policy period and is known to have occurred by the insured. If the insurer is prevented by law or statute from paying damages covered by this umbrella policy, the insurer agrees to indemnify the insured for those sums in excess of the retained limit."

It is a form of risk management primarily used to hedge against the risk of a contingent, uncertain loss. An entity which provides insurance is known as an insurer, insurance company, insurance carrier or underwriter. A person or entity who buys insurance is known as an insured or policyholder. The insurance transaction involves the insured assuming a guaranteed and known relatively small loss in the form of payment to the insurer in exchange for the insurer's promise to compensate the insured in the event of a covered loss. The loss may or may not be financial, but it must be reducible to financial terms, and usually involves something in which the insured has an insurable interest established by ownership, possession, or preexisting relationship."

Sleep, Stanford University, Stanford, CA, and approved March 11, 2015 (received for review December 4, 2014)Abstract Full Text Authors & Info Figures SI Metrics PDF PDF + SISignificance The Iceland hotspot is widely thought to be the surface expression of a deep mantle plume from the core–mantle boundary that can be traced back in time at least 62 My. However, some lavas contain continental material, which has previously been proposed to have been recycled through the plume. Here, we argue that the plume split off a sliver of continent from Greenland in the Early Eocene. This sliver is now located beneath southeast Iceland where it locally contaminates some of the plume-derived magmas. Next Section Abstract The magmatic activity (0–16 Ma) in Iceland is linked to a deep mantle plume that has been active for the past 62 My. Icelandic and northeast Atlantic basalts contain variable proportions of two enriched components, interpreted as recycled oceanic crust supplied by the plume, and subcontinental lithospheric mantle derived from the nearby continental margins. A restricted area in southeast Iceland—and especially the Öræfajökull volcano—is characterized by a unique enriched-mantle component (EM2-like) with elevated 87 Sr/ 86 Sr and 207 Pb/ 204 Pb. Here, we demonstrate through modeling of Sr–Nd–Pb abundances and isotope ratios that the primitive Öræfajökull melts could have assimilated 2–6% of underlying continental crust before differentiating to more evolved melts. From inversion of gravity anomaly data (crustal thickness), analysis of regional magnetic data, and plate reconstructions, we propose that continental crust beneath southeast Iceland is part of ∼350-km-long and 70-km-wide extension of the Jan Mayen Microcontinent (JMM). The extended JMM was marginal to East Greenland but detached in the Early Eocene (between 52 and 47 Mya); by the Oligocene (27 Mya), all parts of the JMM permanently became part of the Eurasian plate following a westward ridge jump in the direction of the Iceland plume.geology continental crust geochemistry plumes plate reconstructions The North Atlantic Igneous Province covers vast areas in Baffin Island, Greenland, United Kingdom, Ireland, the Faroe Islands, and offshore regions ( Fig."

"text": "\"Hall (1990, as cited in Meyer, 1996) stated that: Cultural identity… is a matter of \"\"becoming as well as of \"\"being\"\" It belongs to the future as much as to the past. It is not something which [sic] already exists, transcending place, time, history and culture. Cultural identities come from somewhere, have histories. But, like everything which [sic] is historical, they undergo constant transformation. It is this transformation of cultural identity that makes the understanding of Mexican-Americans, and any group for that matter, so complex. Today in the U. S., Mexican-Americans account for 13.5 million, or at least 60.4%, of all Hispanic Americans (Dr. M. Roberts, personal communication, November 23, 1998). To say that the entire Hispanic segmentation is one racial group is both inaccurate and bad business. The term Hispanic refers to the ethnicity of people who share common roots in Latin America (Dr. M. Roberts, personal communication, November 23, 1998). Mexican-Americans are very different from say Colombian-Americans, Cuban-Americans and the like. The Mexican-American experience is very different from any other immigrant group."

"text": "The United States of America has always been seen as a safe haven of opportunity. For this reason, many immigrants flock to this country in search for new beginnings and better lives. With this belief, when I was two, my family moved to the U. S. from India. My parents were the first of their generation to immigrate to America. Thus, they faced immense pressure getting accustomed to the new land. Initially, my parents wanted to adhere to a traditional Indian way of life, but due to the new atmosphere, they were forced to assimilate into the American culture with the hopes of becoming socially accepted. At the time, they did not realize how it would impact their own Indian culture, but as I grew older, they noticed the changes in my very own lifestyle. Fearful that I would lose my entire Indian heritage, they sent me back to India to live with my grandparents, hoping that I could build a strong cultural foundation. After returning to America, I entered grade school. At first I felt like an outsider coming from an Indian home."

"text": "\"George Stricker, Ph DJul 1, 2001Volume: 18Issue: 7Addiction Psychotherapy integration can be defined as an attempt to look beyond the confines of single-school approaches to see what can be learned from other perspectives (Stricker, 1994). It is characterized by an openness to various ways of integrating diverse theories and techniques. A frequent question that arises is whether psychotherapy integration is simply a different name for the popular eclectic approach. An eclectic approach is one in which a therapist chooses interventions because they work. The therapist does not need a theoretical basis for, understanding of or unnecessary concern with the reason for using the technique other than efficacy. The rationale of efficacy is reasonable, but it often is based on imprecise memories of past experience without any reference to theory or research data. In contrast, psychotherapy integration attends to the relationship between theory and technique. Psychotherapy integration has been used in several different ways. The term has been applied to a common factors approach to understanding psychotherapy, to assimilative integration and to theoretical integration. I will try to develop each of these three approaches to psychotherapy integration more fully."

To appreciate the importance of nitrogen in our biosphere, simply realize nitrogen comprises 78% of the atmosphere, and is embedded in every living tissue! It is a component of amino acids, proteins and nucleic acids. With the exception of carbon, nitrogen is the most universal element of life Put simply: Life could not exists without nitrogen. Aside from organic development, nitrogenous compounds are also required by some organisms for metabolic functions and respiration. Nitrogen exists in many states. In its most common gaseous state of N 2 , nitrogen forms very strong covalent bonds that can only be broken when great force or energy is applied (e.g. seismic event or lightening), or by particular bacteria species which use nitrogenous compounds for metabolism. The fact is various bacteria are critical to every step of the nitrogen cycle. It is these bacteria and their specific roles that are of particular interest to reefkeepers.o The Nitrogen Cycle: Defined The nitrogen cycle is defined as the pathways for which nitrogen is recycled.

"text": "\"Science, Tech, Math ›Social Sciences What Is the Meaning of Acculturation? Understanding Acculturation and How It Differs from Assimilation Share Flipboard Email Print Immigrants become US Citizens during a naturalization ceremony at the Los Angeles Convention Center in November, 2012. J. Emilio Flores/Corbis via Getty Imagesby Nicki Lisa Cole, Ph. D. Updated March 29, 2018Acculturation is a process through which a person or group from one culture comes to adopt practices and values of another culture, while still retaining their own distinct culture. This process is most commonly discussed in terms of a minority culture adopting elements of a majority culture, as is typically the case with immigrant groups that are culturally or ethnically distinct from the majority in the place to which they have immigrated. However, acculturation is a two-way process, so those within the majority culture often adopt elements of minority cultures with which they come into contact, and the process plays out between groups where neither is necessarily a majority or a minority. It can happen at both group and individual levels and can occur as a result of in-person contact or contact through art, literature, or media. Acculturation is not the same as the process of assimilation, though some people use the words interchangeably. Assimilation can be an eventual outcome of the acculturation process, but the process can have other outcomes too, including rejection, integration, marginalization, and transmutation. Acculturation Defined Acculturation is a process of cultural contact and exchange through which a person or group comes to adopt certain values and practices of a culture that is not originally their own, to a greater or lesser extent."

During this transformation, you may wish to consult the updated Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada home page or the newly-created Indigenous Services Canada home page. PDF format (420 Kb, 8 Pages)The relationship between the Crown and Aboriginal people in Canada is one which has been in near constant evolution since it was first established over 300 years ago. It has been impacted by commercial and economic pressures, by shifting alliances and external threats, as well as by policies of protection and subordination. Initially created to manage the military alliances, the Indian Department has been transformed over time into the Department of Indian and Northern Affairs, managing not only Canada's relationship with First Nations, the Inuit and Métis, but also all of Canada's North. Indian and Northern Affairs Canada continues to change to meet the needs and challenges faced by Canada' Aboriginal People. Colonial Conflict: British and French Era - 1534-1763European Colonial Settlements and the Fur Trade While not until the 1500s did Europeans begin to establish settlements on the eastern shores of North America, the wealth and resources of the \"\"New World\"\" were already well known. Different European fishermen were already making contact and trading with the Mik'maq and Maliseet people of the Eastern seaboard. By the 1600s, a network of competing colonies was established throughout the Americas. In North America, the British and the French colonies quickly became the dominant and competing powers."

"text": "\"mimesis Nature creates similarities. One need only think of mimicry. The highest capacity for producing similarities, however, is man’s. His gift of seeing resemblances is nothing other than a rudiment of the powerful compulsion in former times to become and behave like something else. Perhaps there is none of his higher functions in which his mimetic faculty does not play a decisive role. --- Walter Benjamin, \"\"On the Mimetic Faculty\"\" 1933The term mimesis is derived from the Greek mimesis , meaning to imitate [1] . The OED defines mimesis as \"\"a figure of speech, whereby the words or actions of another are imitated\"\" and \"\"the deliberate imitation of the behavior of one group of people by another as a factor in social change\"\" [2] . Mimicry is defined as \"\"the action, practice, or art of mimicking or closely imitating ... the manner, gesture, speech, or mode of actions and persons, or the superficial characteristics of a thing\"\" [3] . Both terms are generally used to denote the imitation or representation of nature, especially in aesthetics (primarily literary and artistic media). Within Western traditions of aesthetic thought, the concepts of imitation and mimesis have been central to attempts to theorize the essence of artistic expression, the characteristics that distinguish works of art from other phenomena, and the myriad of ways in which we experience and respond to works of art."

"text": "\"Multiculturalism is a great social model, because it promotes peace and harmony. When people are forced to assimilate to a culture, it causes them to feel resentment, and they are likely to maintain their cultural heritage in a furtive manner. In a society where multiculturalism is embraced, all people are encouraged to practice their cultures in the open. This allows people from a variety of cultures to get to know each other, and what they are all about. In the long run this leads to a greater understanding, and peace and harmony in the community. Posted by: Tainted Hamel Report Post Reply4I am opposed to assimilation, I believe that unique cultural differences are what build a society and make it stronger. When people assimilate in to a culture they tend to loose their own cultural pride and traditions. You can be in a different culture and blend in with that culture while still preserving your own individuality. Its important to pass on traditions throughout generations so people do not forget where they come from.

"text": "\"Difference Between Globalization and Capitalism• Categorized under Miscellaneous | Difference Between Globalization and Capitalism Globalization vs. Capitalism Globalization and capitalism are popular terms nowadays. While people assume that the two terms can be used interchangeably, this is not the case. Globalization is a general term that can be defined in many ways, while capitalism has a specific definition. It is incorrect to assume that globalization is synonymous with capitalism. In order to avoid confusion regarding these two terms, one should learn when and how the word ‘globalization’ became popular. A significant term that preceded globalization was ‘corporate giants,’ which was first mentioned by Charles Russell. In the 1930’s, the word ‘globalization’ emerged, and was identified closely with education via significant human experiences. During the 1960’s, however, the term was adopted by social scientists and economists. Globalization can pertain to a lot of things. Over the years, the term has spawned contradicting, and even absurd, definitions."

"text": "\"Encyclopedia of the Great Plains David J. Wishart, Editor Home Introduction Contents Contributors About EUROPEAN AMERICANSImmigrant woman and children in front of Winnipeg Station, Manitoba, ca. 1909View larger European immigrants and their descendants created an archipelago of ethnic communities in the Great Plains largely between 1860 and 1930, although agricultural settlement began as early as 1811 in the Earl of Selkirk's colony in the Red River Valley of the North and the 1830s in the German Hill Country of southern Texas. Even earlier, European explorers and fur traders had penetrated most parts of the Great Plains. Within the flood of settlement spreading out onto the Plains after 1860 were distinctive streams of immigrants that fed ethnic communities that would survive as cultural islands for decades to come. These European immigrants, like the migrants from the eastern and central United States and Canada, encountered an unforgiving physical environment that demanded changes in their cultures, distinctive ways of life, and farming practices. Over time, depending on the volume and longevity of the migration streams and on the stability of the communities, American-born generations preserved some of their parents' cultures while adopting North American ways and creating new patterns of their own. They contributed to the successful development of new systems of agriculture on the western grasslands, actively participated in the political life of Canada and the United States, and met the challenges posed by World War I, which became the first major test of loyalty to their new homeland. In doing so, they redefined the meaning of what was required to be American or Canadian Creating an Archipelago of Communities Migrations created these distinctive cultural communities, and a number of other factors determined whether these communities waxed or waned. The volume of immigration to a given destination was important in forming a significant spatial cluster, and spatial clustering was another key factor. If the area had previously been largely unsettled, then immigrants might be able to realize their goal of a homogeneous community."

So during the CO2 fixation, when the photosynthetic plants produce 3-phosphoglyceric acid (PGA) or 3- carbon acid as the first product is called C3 pathway. But when the photosynthetic plant, prior going to the C3 pathway, produces oxaloacetic acid (OAA) or 4 -carbon compound as their first stable product is called as C4 or Hatch and Slack pathway. But when the plants absorb the energy of the sunlight at the day time and use this energy for the assimilation or fixing the carbon dioxide at night time is called as crassulacean acid metabolism or CAM. These procedures are followed by plants, certain species of bacteria and algae for the production of energy, independent of their habitat. The synthesis of energy, using carbon dioxide and water as the primary source to gain nutrients from air and water is termed as photosynthesis. This is the prime process for the living being which produces food on their own In this content, we will be considering the essential difference between the three types of pathways followed by plants and few microorganisms and a small description about them. Content: C3, C4, and CAM pathways Comparison Chart Definition Key Differences Conclusion Comparison Chart Basis for Comparison C3 pathway C4 pathway CAMDefinition Such plants whose first product after the carbon assimilation from sunlight is 3-carbon molecule or 3-phosphoglyceric acid for the production of energy is called C3 plants, and the pathway is called as the C3 pathway. It is most commonly used by plants. Plants in the tropical area, convert the sunlight energy into C4 carbon molecule or oxaloacetice acid, which takes place before the C3 cycle and then it further convert into the energy, is called C4 plants and pathway is called as the C4 pathway."

"text": "Energy Flow in an Ecosystem (With Diagram)Article Shared by ADVERTISEMENTS: Energy has been defined as the capacity to do work. Energy exists in two forms potential and kinetic. Potential energy is the energy at rest {i.e., stored energy) capable of performing work. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion (free energy). It results in work performance at the expense of potential energy. Conversion of potential energy into kinetic energy involves the imparting of motion. ADVERTISEMENTS: The source of energy required by all living organisms is the chemical energy of their food. The chemical energy is obtained by the conversion of the radiant energy of sun. The radiant energy is in the form of electromagnetic waves which are released from the sun during the transmutation of hydrogen to helium. The chemical energy stored in the food of living organisms is converted into potential energy by the arrangement of the constituent atoms of food in a particular manner."

Contents [ hide ]1 Defining assimilation2 Protests Against Assimilation3 History4 Senegal's Four Communes5 See also6 References Defining assimilation [ edit]The French Assimilation concept was based on the idea of spreading French culture to the colonies outside France in the 19th and 20th century. Natives of these colonies were considered French citizens as long as the culture and customs were adopted. This also meant they would have the rights and duties of French citizens. The meaning of assimilation has been greatly debated. One possible definition stated that French laws apply to all colonies outside France regardless of the distance from France, the size of the colony, the organization of society, the economic development, race or religious beliefs.

"text": "assimilation Assimilation is that process of magmatic differentiation whereby ascending magmas evolve chemically by recruiting easily melted or dissolved components ( fusibles) from the walls of their conduits. Under the agency of heat and magmatic fluids, ascending magmas pick up volatiles, silica, trace elements, and occassionally fragments of wall rock. The heat that the melt gains by leaving behind quick-freezing refractories (an exothermic process) is typically sufficient to compensate for heat lost in the endothermic reactions required for the assimilation (melting) of country rock components. This trade-off ensures that assimilation can proceed without causing the melt to freeze (solidify). Any wall rock fragments that survive more or less intact, without completely melting or dissolving into the magma, are called xenoliths. Surviving wall rock crystals are called xenocrysts. Together, xenoliths and xenocrysts provide invaluable information about rarely exposed lower crust and mantle levels by carrying these materials up within the ascending magma. ▪ Bowen's Reaction Series Labels: assimilation, magma, magmatic differentiation0 GUIDEPost a Comment<< Home"

The rock cycle is a basic concept in geology that describes the time-consuming transitions through geologic time among the three main rock types: sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous. As the adjacent diagram illustrates, each of the types of rocks is altered or destroyed when it is forced out of its equilibrium conditions. An igneous rock such as basalt may break down and dissolve when exposed to the atmosphere, or melt as it is subducted under a continent. Due to the driving forces of the rock cycle, plate tectonics and the water cycle, rocks do not remain in equilibrium and are forced to change as they encounter new environments. The rock cycle is an illustration that explains how the three rock types are related to each other, and how processes change from one type to another over time. This cyclical aspect makes rock change a geologic cycle and, on planets containing life, a biogeochemical cycle.

Answer by Paul Jones Confidence votes 86.3KOwner of Jones Mineral Cabinet, Geology and Paleontology Supervisor, interested in Earth and Planetary sciences In geology, the term deposition refers to the settling out or placement of rock, particles of rock, or organic matter, generally referred to as sediments, after transportation by wind, water, ice, or gravity. Deposition occurs when the energy causing the transportation of sediments becomes unable to move the sediments any further due to its weight or friction with other particles. Deposition can occur in deltas, at the base of mountains, at the bottom of oceans, lakes, and seas, in sand dunes, or at the end of glaciers. The smaller the particle, generally, the further from its source will be its point of deposition.14 people found this useful Was this answer useful?

Researchers have now shown that other rock types, incorporated into the magma as it rises through overlying formations, provide the necessary buoyancy for its long ascent. Share: FULL STORYDiamond-bearing kimberlites are volcanic rocks that originate deep in the Earth and are erupted onto the surface. LMU researchers have now shown that other rock types incorporated into the magma as it rises through overlying formations provide the necessary buoyancy for its long ascent. Kimberlites are magmatic rocks that form deep in Earth's interior and are brought to the surface by volcanic eruptions. On their turbulent journey upwards magmas assimilate other types of minerals, collectively referred to as xenoliths (Greek for \"\"foreign rocks\"\"). The xenoliths found in kimberlite include diamonds, and the vast majority of the diamonds mined in the world today is found in kimberlite ores. Exactly how kimberlites acquire the necessary buoyancy for their long ascent through Earth's crust has, however, been something of a mystery. An international research team led by Professor Donald Dingwell, Director of the Department of Geo- and Environmental Sciences at LMU, has now demonstrated that assimilated rocks picked up along the way are responsible for the providing the required impetus. The primordial magma is basic, but the incorporation of silicate minerals encountered during its ascent makes the melt more acidic."

Flag How does sedimentary rock change into igneous rock? Answer by Amiewhitlock Confidence votes 483Sedimentary rock can be changed into igneous rock by undergoing melting and then solidification. At a subduction zone (at a convergent plate boundary, where one plate slides beneath another), layers of sedimentary rock will be assimilated into the mantle. Some areas may undergo enough heating to actually melt, especially if there is water or carbon dioxide trapped in the rock. If this rock later makes it to the surface and cools, it will become an igneous rock. Another area where sedimentary rock could be changed into igneous rock is on the interior of a composite volcano -- The heat and force of the magma could break off chunks of volcanic welded tuff, causing it to melt. If the volcano then erupts, the former sedimentary rock would be incorporated into the lava and solidify into igneous rock.28 people found this useful Was this answer useful?

Advocates of this motion claim that this right attracts unauthorized immigration to the U. S. [3] The repeal of birthright citizenship would have the greatest impact on second-generation Americans who are Mexican Americans, as Mexico is the country of origin for the majority of undocumented immigrants in the U. S. [3]The growing presence of first-generation immigrants in the U. S. has led to a growth in the percentage of the population that can be categorized as second-generation Americans. This is due to immigrants being more likely than native born adults to have children. [ 4] In 2009, immigrants, both legal and unauthorized, were the parents of 23% of all children in the U. S. [4] The process by which second-generation immigrants undergo assimilation into U.

( May 2014)Cultural assimilation is the process in which a minority group or culture resembles those of a dominant group. The term is used to refer to both individuals and groups; the latter case can refer to a range of social groups, including ethnic minorities, immigrants, indigenous peoples, and other marginalized groups such as sexual minorities who adapt to being culturally dominated by another societal group. Cultural assimilation may involve either a quick or a gradual change depending on circumstances of the group. Full assimilation occurs when members of a society become indistinguishable from those of the dominant group. Whether it is desirable for a given group to assimilate is often disputed by both members of the group and those of the dominant society. Cultural assimilation does not guarantee social homophily though as this article states, geographical and other natural barriers between cultures even if started by the same dominant culture will be culturally different.

"text": "What is the Difference Between Assimilation vs Accommodation? Anyone who is a science fiction fan will probably understand the concept of assimilation: there are many stories and plot lines involving the ‘assimilation’ of one species by another. When taken in this context, to be assimilated means to be absorbed or incorporated into something else. So when the Borg assimilated humans, they basically ‘absorbed’ them until humans ‘became’ Borg. But if examined from a psychological perspective, what is the difference between assimilation Vs accommodation? Piaget, the well-known child development expert, describes assimilation and accommodation as two complimentary processes of a child’s adaptation to new experiences: using a process of assimilation and accommodation, a child is able to make sense of the world around them and learn new things as they grow. But if both are processes of learning adaptation, what is the difference between assimilation Vs accommodation? Assimilation is a learning process whereby the child takes on board ideas and concepts and makes them fit what he or she already knows. So if a child knows what a dog is, but he meets a new breed of dog, he assimilates the information that a dog can be a different size and colour, but it is still a dog. Accommodation is a slightly different process of learning adaptation whereby the child’s existing knowledge has to be altered to accommodate the new information the child has picked up."

For example, participation in political institutions, social, economic and educational. Minority groups not only lost the original identity amended by joining the majority. In Example assimilation structure is a process that occurs in the implementation of the New Economy Policy, the national schools, political parties like the National Front and the like. The formula used is as follows. Ai + B + C = Ai + Bi + Ci- 'A' represents the majority group- 'B + C' represents the minority ethnic groups- 'i' represents the institution Examples of cultural assimilation is an adaptation that occurs in multiple languages as long as the language evolves and survival include the Malay language in Malaysia.

The rock cycle is a basic concept in geology that describes the time-consuming transitions through geologic time among the three main rock types: sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous. As the adjacent diagram illustrates, each of the types of rocks is altered or destroyed when it is forced out of its equilibrium conditions. An igneous rock such as basalt may break down and dissolve when exposed to the atmosphere, or melt as it is subducted under a continent. Due to the driving forces of the rock cycle, plate tectonics and the water cycle, rocks do not remain in equilibrium and are forced to change as they encounter new environments. The rock cycle is an illustration that explains how the three rock types are related to each other, and how processes change from one type to another over time. This cyclical aspect makes rock change a geologic cycle and, on planets containing life, a biogeochemical cycle.

"text": "Author Profile When did oceans form on Earth? What evidence is preserved in the rock record? Submitted by Aaron Cavosie, University of Puerto Rico Why is this question important? Most of us teach earth science using simple or sophisticated models and imagery that demonstrate to students that the Earth is essentially a blue marble whose surface is dominated by oceans. This vision of a blue Earth has even been espoused by popular science writers such as the non-fiction work 'Pale Blue Dot' by the late Carl Sagan. For many it would be difficult to envision an Earth without its blue blanket of oceans. However this is precisely what the early stages of our planet were like. An ocean-free Earth existed, perhaps for several hundred million years as a consequence of extremely high surface temperatures following planetary accretion. The formation of oceans on Earth represents no less than a global-scale cooling of Earth's surface to temperatures at which water is stable as a liquid phase. That such a profound transition occurred from the highly energetic conditions of the newly accreted Earth whose surface was dominated by meteorite impacts and transient magma oceans to cooler conditions capable of supporting liquid water and eventually life is not in question."

Align: Make sure your organization agrees on the need for a new team member and the delineation of the role you seek to fill. Acquire: Identify, recruit, select, and get people to join the team. Accommodate: Give new team members the tools they need to do the work. Assimilate: Help them join with others so they can do the work together. Accelerate: Help them and their team deliver better results faster.

Unit Home Topic Home Chapter Home 1 Pictures 1 Animations 0 Videos Chapter Summary 0 Activities 1 Exams The idea of assimilation had been around since the 1930s but was not adopted as an official government policy towards the Aboriginal peoples until the 1950s. It became official government policy in Australia not just for Aboriginal peoples, but for all foreign migrants as well. In the late 1940s, Australia was still a very 'British' country, 97 per cent of the population was Australian, or British-born. The National Anthem 'God Save The Queen' was still sung after films in the cinema. Anyone who came to Australia from abroad was expected to fit in with this culture - they were expected to assimilate. Aboriginal peoples and migrants were expected to give up their own heritage and adopt the culture of the majority. Many people were scared of new cultures coming into Australia and diluting the 'Australian' culture. Since the early 1900s there had been a 'White Australia' policy when it came to immigration. Only white people from Europe (and preferably Britain or Ireland) were allowed to immigrate."

Assimilation is an important building block for how we organize our learning. Learn what assimilation is, discover how it is used in practical situations and test your knowledge with quiz questions. What Is Assimilation Assimilation is a cognitive process that manages how we take in new information and incorporate that new information into our existing knowledge. This concept was developed by Jean Piaget, a Swiss developmental psychologist who is best known for his theory of cognitive development in children. For example, when a young child learns the word dog for the family pet, he eventually begins to identify every similar-looking canine as a dog. The child has extended his learning, or assimilated, the concept of dog to include all similar 4-footed friends. Piaget's Schemas To better understand assimilation and the cognitive process that is involved, we should take a closer look at how Piaget believed we create mental structures to take in this new information as we are exposed to it. Piaget used the term schema to refer to a category of knowledge that you currently hold that helps you understand the world you live in and provides some basic guidance for future events. A schema describes how we organize information."

"text": "\"Sociology Index ENCULTURATIONEnculturation is the process by which the values and norms of a society are passed on to or acquired by its members. Acculturation , unlike enculturation, is adaptation to an alien culture. The concept of enculturation has not been given an appropriate definition. The term enculturation has been used inconsistently in anthropology as well as in other fields. Various anthropologists have tended to regard enculturation as consisting of such processes as socialization, the acquiring of culture, and cultural internalization, excluding an innovative process of enculturation. Herskovits' definition of enculturation includes a process of novel change and inquiry. Two phases of enculturation, according to Herskovits, can be distinguished: the unconscious stage of early years in human growth, where the individual unconsciously internalizes his culture; the conscious stage of later years, which involves innovations initiated by individuals. Herskovits contends that these two phases constitute the total process of enculturation. The problem in arbitrary separation of the early years from the later in human learning and teaching lies in that this separation is contradictory to psychological findings, existentialism , Gestalt, and personological. It is proposed that enculturation be defined as a construct, and a process in a behavioral sense, that delineates transmission and transmutation of culture throughout human growth."

"text": "\"DEFINITIONS AND OVERVIEW OF PREJUDICE & DISCRIMINATIONThe classic definition of prejudice is the one put forth by the famous Harvard psychologist, Gordon Allport, who published The Nature of Prejudice in 1954: \"\"Prejudice is an antipathy based on faulty and inflexible generalization. It may be felt or expressed. It may be directed toward a group or an individual of that group\"\". The keyword in this definition is \"\"antipathy\"\". It is a strange word which Webster's Dictionary easily defines as a \"\"negative feeling\"\", but psychologists are hard-pressed to define it, and usually describe it NOT as an emotion or feeling, but as something in-between a personality trait and a personal habit. Of historical note, long ago there was a debate in psychology between Theodore Adorno and associates (creators of the concept of authoritarian personality) and Gordon Allport/Thomas Pettigrew (of Harvard) over whether prejudice was a personality trait or not. Although authoritarian personality theory was quite popular (and still is), it didn't explain Southern patterns of racism (people who were good egalitarian people but simply accepted segregation as the way things were) very well. Basically, the Harvard definition won out, and it is generally accepted today that THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A PREJUDICED PERSONALITY TYPE. It would be a conceptual mistake to blame racism on racist personalities or, to a lesser extent, use phrases like \"\"prejudiced persons\"\" or \"\"racists\"\" to connote the existence of certain personality types. It's NOT part of the personality."

( May 2013) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)Bicultural identity is the condition of being oneself regarding the combination of two cultures. The term can also be defined as biculturalism, which is the presence of two different cultures in the same country or region. As a general term, culture involves the behaviors and belief characteristics of a particular social, ethnic, or age group. Within culture, we have cultural effects, which are the shared behaviors and customs we learn from the institutions around us. An example of a cultural effect would be how an individual’s personality is strongly influenced by the biological and social norms he is exposed to. Another cultural effect would be that in some societies it would be more acceptable to dress or act in a certain way. In regards to bicultural identity, an individual may face conflict assimilating into both cultures or finding a balance between both. An individual may face challenges assimilating into the whole, collective culture."

"text": "Promising Practices, Teaching Self-Regulation: Calm, Alert, and Learning*by: Stuart Shankerdate: July 26, 2010Two recent Government of Ontario publications, With our Best Future in Mind [1] and Every Child Every Opportunity, [2] have brought self-regulation to the fore of that province’s early learning initiative. This thematic core reflects a growing awareness among developmental scientists that the better a child can self-regulate, the better she can rise to the challenge of mastering ever more complex skills and concepts. [ 3] But what exactly is self-regulation, and why is it so important for learning? In the simplest terms, self-regulation can be defined as the ability to stay calmly focused and alert, which often involves – but cannot be reduced to – self-control. The idea that self-regulation and self-control are one and the same is surprisingly ancient, dating back to Plato. All of the great treatises on pedagogy, from Erasmus and Comenius, through Locke and Rousseau, right up to Watson and Skinner, can be said to have been inspired by Plato’s vision of emotions and appetites as “wild horses” that need to be restrained by Reason. Given the power of these elemental forces, says this vision, Reason has to be strengthened so as to keep hold of the reins. [ 4]Five-domain Model Now, to be sure, what developmental scientists refer to today as effortful control (e.g., being able to inhibit one’s impulses or ignore distractions) is a critical element of self-regulation. But to get a sense of the full array of processes involved in self-regulation,one need only turn to a standard resource tool like Baumeister & Vohs’ Handbook of Self-Regulation, which includes at least five distinct definitions presented in the various chapters: [5]“The ability to attain, maintain and change one’s level of arousal appropriately for a task or situation”“The ability to control one’s emotions”“The ability to formulate a goal, monitor goal-progress, adjust one’s behaviors”“The ability to manage social interactions, to co-regulate ”“To be aware of one’s academic strengths and weaknesses, and have a repertoire of strategies to tackle day-to-day challenges of academic tasks”Not surprisingly, each of these definitions reflects the interests of the different sub-disciplines represented in the Handbook (viz., temperament, emotion development, cognitive development, social development, and educational theory)."

"text": "\"Suppressed Feelings Repression Defense Mechanisms Psychology What is the difference between suppression and repression?7 Answers Quora User, Neuropsychopharmacology Updated Apr 15, 2014 · Author has 142 answers and 398.5k answer views The most simple, brief but distinctive traits that separate these two can be summed up with just 1 word a piece: SUPRESSION: CONSCIOUS REPRESSION: SUBCONSCIOUS That's the primary difference, they're both troubling thoughts that we do not want to have, and so we rid ourselves of them in different ways, but those are the two domains and destinations. If you want a bit more detail, I'll give it. Typically _suppression_ is viewed as a thought (or thoughts) that exist in the conscious mind. We find these thoughts to be troublesome or maladaptive in some way, so we make a conscious attempt to stop thinking about whatever it may be. By the fact that it still rests in the conscious mind, it is just reduced in frequency or intensity, or \"\"minimized\"\", \"\"muted\"\", \"\"restrained\"\". It may come back to mind frequently or you may be able to control it for the most part. Though the key part is that you are WILLING your mind to stop and expending energy or EFFORT to suppress the thought. Conversely, _repression_ is largely the same thing, except once the thought is repressed, we lose conscious awareness of its existence at all. It is swallowed by the subconscious mind, almost always WITHOUT WILLING it to stop. Once it is put away into the subconscious it takes NO EFFORT to keep it there."

This presentation assumes that all minorities share certain characteristics. It does not matter whether we are talking about the relationship between the Protestants and the Catholics in Northern Ireland or the relationship between the Chinese and the Moslems in Malaysia.

Understanding Acculturation and How It Differs from Assimilation Share Flipboard Email Print Immigrants become US Citizens during a naturalization ceremony at the Los Angeles Convention Center in November, 2012. J. Emilio Flores/Corbis via Getty Imagesby Nicki Lisa Cole, Ph. D. Updated March 29, 2018Acculturation is a process through which a person or group from one culture comes to adopt practices and values of another culture, while still retaining their own distinct culture. This process is most commonly discussed in terms of a minority culture adopting elements of a majority culture, as is typically the case with immigrant groups that are culturally or ethnically distinct from the majority in the place to which they have immigrated. However, acculturation is a two-way process, so those within the majority culture often adopt elements of minority cultures with which they come into contact, and the process plays out between groups where neither is necessarily a majority or a minority. It can happen at both group and individual levels and can occur as a result of in-person contact or contact through art, literature, or media. Acculturation is not the same as the process of assimilation, though some people use the words interchangeably. Assimilation can be an eventual outcome of the acculturation process, but the process can have other outcomes too, including rejection, integration, marginalization, and transmutation. Acculturation Defined Acculturation is a process of cultural contact and exchange through which a person or group comes to adopt certain values and practices of a culture that is not originally their own, to a greater or lesser extent."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Portraits of Native Americans from the Cherokee, Cheyenne, Choctaw, Comanche, Iroquois, and Muscogee tribes in European attire. Photos date from 1868 to 1924. Acculturation is the process of social, psychological, and cultural change that stems from blending between cultures. The effects of acculturation can be seen at multiple levels in both the original (native) and newly adopted (host) cultures. Historically speaking, acculturation is a direct change of one's culture through dominance over another's culture through either military or political conquest. At this group level, acculturation often results in changes to culture, customs, religious practices, diet, healthcare, and other social institutions. Some of the most noticeable group level effects of acculturation often include changes in food, clothing, and language. At the individual level, the process of acculturation refers to the socialisation process by which foreign-born individuals adopt the values, customs, norms, attitudes, and behaviours of the dominant host culture. This process has been linked to changes in daily behaviour, as well as numerous changes in psychological and physical well-being. As enculturation is used to describe the process of first-culture learning, acculturation can be thought of as second-culture learning."

His father, Arthur Piaget, was a professor of medieval literature with an interest in local history. His mother, Rebecca Jackson, was intelligent and energetic, but Jean found her a bit neurotic -- an impression that he said led to his interest in psychology, but away from pathology! The oldest child, he was quite independent and took an early interest in nature, especially the collecting of shells. He published his first “paper” when he was ten -- a one page account of his sighting of an albino sparrow. He began publishing in earnest in high school on his favorite subject, mollusks. He was particularly pleased to get a part time job with the director of Nuechâtel’s Museum of Natural History, Mr. Godel. His work became well known among European students of mollusks, who assumed he was an adult! All this early experience with science kept him away, he says, from “the demon of philosophy."

Arief Juwono / Getty Imagesby N. S. Gill Updated August 08, 2017Affect and effect are difficult to keep straight. It may help to understand something about the derivation or etymology of the two closely related words.. Etymology (Derivation)Affect and effect are both based on a very productive Latin word, facio, which means 'do, make' or any number of other things. Affect is based on the Latin verb facio with the prefix ad- added. Ad is a preposition meaning 'to, towards, near' and maintains some sense of that meaning when it is used as a prefix added to a verb. Effect is based on the same Latin verb facio with the prefix ex- added. Ex is a preposition meaning 'from, out of' and, again, maintains some sense of that meaning when used as a prefix added to a verb. Affect doesn't look much like ad- + facio and effect looks little like ex- + facio. That's becausethe form of the verb facio that is used in the English is taken from the Latin verb's past participle, -fect. ["

He first began his scientific investigations as a young biologist immersed in the study of mollusks. Before he was 30 years of age, he was world renowned for his explorations of the cognitive development of children. Piaget is credited with foundational contributions to the emerging disciplines of child psychology, educational psychology, and cognitive development theory. Piaget's empirical studies of infants, children, and adolescents provided insight into the nature of knowledge and how it is acquired.

"text": "What is assimilation? August 4, 2014 , cherran , Leave a comment In the field of psychology, assimilation refers to a process wherein people gain new knowledge and add them up to existing information. Â The concept of assimilation was created by known psychologist, Jean Piaget, who also became popular with his cognitive development theories involving children. Â According to Piaget, assimilation is part of the adaptive mechanism in human beings wherein every new information that is encountered is generally taken in and incorporated with existing information. The process of assimilation according to Piaget basically involves data organization or categorization in the brain called schema. One category of learning or experience corresponds to different types of information. Â Whenever similar information is encountered in the present time, the corresponding schema or stored information will be activated. All related information stored in the past will then be integrated with the new details that are learned in the present. Â There are times wherein new information is only added to the existing schema and there are also instances wherein some details learned in the past will be modified through the assimilation process. Visiting a new restaurant for example is one basic example of the assimilation process."

Assisted Living Costs & Fee Structures Most assisted living communities offer residents the choice of all-inclusive or fee-for-service pricing. All-inclusive means that a single monthly fee covers rent, meals and any additional services a resident chooses such as housekeeping or transportation. Fee-for-service means a resident pays only for those services they use. Typically, if a resident intends to use the full suite of services an assisted living residence offers, it is less expensive to choose the all-inclusive model. If a resident will only require certain services or will use outside assistance for certain services, then the fee-for-service approach offers better cost savings. A more detailed review of assisted living pricing models is available here. In 2017, the average monthly cost of assisted living nationwide is $3,700. Alzheimer's and dementia care in assisted living (called Memory Care) costs, on average, an additional $1,100 per month, for a monthly total of $4,800."

Most assisted living and Alzheimer's care facilities offer at least one of the following three models for billing their residents. Although there are three types of fee structures, not every residence will necessarily offer all three choices.1) \"\"All Inclusive\"\" Model This billing model groups the costs for monthly rent, meals, housekeeping, laundry, transportation, security, personal care, recreational activities and nearly everything else residents require in assisted living into a single monthly bill. However, the definition of \"\"all inclusive\"\" will vary from facility to facility. For example, some residences consider incontinence services or medication management to be above and beyond and bill extra for those services. Also worth noting is that optional expenses may be charged to a monthly bill such as purchases from an in-facility hairdresser or general store. The All Inclusive model is preferred for its simplicity and for the predictability of cost month to month. However, it may not always be the most economical approach to paying for assisted living care.2) \"\"Levels of Care\"\" Model Also referred to as Tiered Pricing, the Levels of Care model of assisted living payment has 3-4 levels or tiers into which a variety of services are grouped. Each tier allows for a certain number of care hours per month (often called \"\"points\"\"). For example, individuals who require very little or no extra care would be placed in the lowest level of care which would also be the least expensive."

Home care aides still average $21 per hour and adult day care services remain at an average $67 per day. The survey also reports on the cost of a semi-private room in a nursing home, which increased 3.5 percent to $205 a day, or $74,825 a year. The cost of a semi-private room in an Alzheimer's wing actually dropped, from an average of $75,920 to an average of $75,190 annually.

The cost is largely based on the type of unit, such as semi-private, private and detached, as well as the services offered on site. A nurse gives an injection to a patient at a nursing home.credit: Purestock/Purestock/Getty Images Nursing Homes Nursing homes charge a daily rate, which includes room and board as well as care services such as nursing and housekeeping. As of 2012, semi-private rooms cost an average of $222 a day or more than $81,000 a year, according to a survey from Met Life cited by U. S. News & World Report. For private rooms, rates jumped to an average of $248 a day or more than $90,500 a year. With the average stay coming in at 835 days, you're looking at total costs ranging from about $185,000 to $207,000. Assisted-Living Facilities For seniors who don't need long-term care, an assisted-living facility may be a better and often cheaper option. In fact, many nursing homes have this type of living facility available to residents. Because of this, most assisted-living facilities provide similar services as nursing homes -- such as meals, support staff, housekeeping and health care -- but offer more independence. The one-bedroom units often come equipped with kitchenettes, allowing residents to prepare their own meals."

You also want to know:1. average cost to the state for an individual in a nursing home for the past three or four years and the state ' s annual total cost for nursing home care;2. average cost for a person to live in an assisted living facility;3. which states provide financial assistance to seniors in assisted living facilities and what their qualifying criteria for assistance are; and4. a comparison of what services different states have required a facility to provide to qualify as an assisted living facility. SUMMARYAssisted living is a newer model of long-term care for frail seniors who cannot stay in their own homes because they need some help with daily activities such as dressing, bathing or eating, but do not want to move to a nursing home. Neither Medicaid nor state funds can currently be used to pay for room and board or assisted living services in private assisted living facilities in Connecticut. Although federal law allows states to use Medicaid funds for services (but not room and board), Connecticut has not opted to do so for residents of private facilities. But recently, the Connecticut legislature approved assisted living in a limited number of state- and federally funded projects for lower-income seniors, whereby Medicaid and state funds pay for the services and existing state low-income rental subsidies help pay the already modest rent."

"text": "\"Understanding Assisted Living Costs Average Rates and Ways to Pay By Gina Roberts-Grey, Caring.com Health Writer | Last updated: Oct 06, 2017If you or an aging loved one are no longer able to live at home without help, a move to an assisted living community can be an excellent option. As you consider that move, it's important to remember that unless the expense of assisted living stems from the need for short-term rehabilitation, Medicare won’t cover the bill. The monthly cost of assisted living can be quite shocking if you’re unfamiliar with the factors that help determine that price tag. Everything from the level of care and amenities to room size and zip code can drive the cost of assisted living up—or down. The average monthly cost of assisted living in the U. S. is roughly $3,600 a month, or about $43,500, according to Genworth’s latest Cost of Care Survey released in June 2016. That national average was up about 3.57 percent from a national average of $42,000 per year in 2014, according to Genworth's data. As painful as that may be to the pocketbook, the cost of assisted living can seem like a bargain when compared to the $5,000 to $10,000 or more that nursing home care can run every month. The average cost of assisted living in the U. S. is comparable to the $3,861 price tag of having a home health aide; it’s nearly double the $1,473 adult day care costs in the U. S. per month. Just as for general housing and real estate prices, the price you will pay for assisted living depends on a number of factors, from apartment size to the level of care you’ll need to the services you will require. Another major factor, of course, is location, and the cost of assisted living can vary widely by geographical area."

To find financial assistance for assisted living, please use our Resource Locator Tool.1) Apartment Choice Almost all assisted living communities offer residents a choice of room size. Modern communities typically offer enough public spaces and activity rooms, that residents often find they don’t require a large private room. Renting a “studio” instead of a one-bedroom apartment can reduce monthly payments by 15% - 20%. Annually, this can result in a savings of $6,000 - $8,000 for a community that charges the national average of $3,600 / month.2) Apartment Share Most assisted living residences offer two-bedroom apartments and while a shared living situation is not appropriate for everyone, sharing an apartment can save 10% - 20% over a single unit. For a community of average cost, this saves $4,000 - $8,000 / year. An additional benefit of sharing a two-bedroom unit is the increased living space and a separation of sleeping and socializing areas. Furthermore, many seniors find a social benefit in having a suite-mate.3) Community Size One might think that larger assisted living communities can provide care services at a lower cost due to economy of scale. However, because regulations differ for smaller and larger communities this is not the case. One may find “lower bed count” assisted living residences to be less expensive even when they are offering the same quality of care in the same geographic area."

Do you require specialized assisted living services, such as physical or speech therapy? Making these decisions will help you narrow in on the right assisted living arrangement, but there's one factor that will inevitably affect your choice: the cost of assisted living. How to Break Down the Cost of an Assisted Living Facility The national average cost of assisted living for one year is $50,000. But that figure varies greatly by location. For example, the monthly average cost of assisted living services in Boston is $6,500, but it is only $2,500 in Jackson, MI. The cost of assisted living also depends on level of care, facility and amenities, how much medical assistance is involved, and other factors.

An assisted living facility is a community that provides assistance with activities of daily living while offering seniors a safe and supervised living space where they can remain independent. The number of Americans who will join an assisted living facility is on the rise in many states. According to the Long-Term Care Services in the United States: 2013 Overview report produced by the National Center for Health Statistics, Washington, Oregon, Utah and Minnesota are among the states which have more residents in assisted living facilities above the national average.

Without a doubt, one of the most common questions that comes through our site has to do with how to pay for assisted living, and if Medicare covers any or all of the cost of assisted living. Many of the messages that we receive are from children of aging parents who are suddenly faced with the reality of placing their mom or dad into a long-term care environment, or assisted living – and not having any idea of how they, or their parents are going to afford the cost of the care. Unfortunately, too many families do not plan in advance for long-term care, and families are often times surprised…even shocked at how expensive assisted living can be. Unfortunately, many people make the assumption that assisted living will be covered by health insurance, Medicare, or our government in some way – only to learn that much of, if not all of the cost will be coming out of their own pockets. Without thoughtful advance planning, out-of-pocket expenses for an aging loved one can be financially devastating. Let’s first talk about what we have seen as far as the cost of assisted living."

"text": "\"Cost For Assisted Living Facilities Increases Due to Regulations By Carly Stephenson | Posted: Thu 6:18 AM, Apr 11, 2013 | Updated: Thu 11:46 AM, Apr 11, 2013HARRISONBURG, Va. -- The cost of long term health care is increasing in Virginia. In the Commonwealth, the yearly cost for living in an assisted living facility is just over $45,000. In comparison, the national average of increased costs is lower, at $41,400, according to a Genworth financial survey. Dennis Hughes, an administrator at White Birch Communities Assisted Living, said it's because of an increase in state licensing requirements. Those require more training for employees. Advances in technology, including a tool to make handing out medications as accurate as possible, also add to costs. Hughes said that medication technicians now have to be registered in Virginia. All administrators also have to go back and be relicensed and sit for state board exams. This facility has about 70 residents and Hughes said they've been fortunate because their size makes it easier to control costs. Hughes said that Virginia is one of the highest regulated states in the country, but he notes it is important to make sure people who live at the facility are well cared for. \"\""

The availability of reliable transportation impacts a person’s ability to access appropriate and well-coordinated healthcare, purchase nutritious food, and otherwise care for him or herself. Rural populations most likely to need transportation services to maintain their health and well-being include: The elderly People with disabilities Low-income individuals and families Veterans and people with special healthcare needs, who often must travel long distances to access care This guide focuses on how communities can provide transportation services to support access to rural healthcare, which may also benefit healthcare providers by decreasing inappropriate use of EMS services, improving utilization of healthcare services, and decreasing no-show rates. The guide also highlights transportation as a community-based service that can allow the elderly and people with disabilities to live successfully in a community rather than entering a long-term care facility or leaving the community. Frequently Asked Questions Where can I get help planning and funding transportation projects? Where can I get help finding local transportation programs and services? What are the health-related consequences of not having transportation for rural residents, including the elderly and people with disabilities? What strategies can rural communities and healthcare facilities use to provide non-emergency medical transportation services? What issues should facilities and organizations consider when providing transportation? Can Medicaid be used to subsidize non-emergency medical transportation?"

(April 9, 2015) – Genworth announced today, the results of its 12 th annual Cost of Care Study, which shows that in California, the cost to receive long term care services at home with a home health aide has increased over the past five years. On a national level, the survey shows a dramatic increase in facility based care, including assisted living and nursing home facilities, while the cost to receive care at home through a home health aide is rising at a more moderate growth rate. “There is something very difficult about facing some of the challenges and issues that come with aging, including the high costs of long term care services,” said Tom Mc Inerney, president and chief executive officer at Genworth. “ Part of our mission at Genworth with the Cost of Care study is to continue educating Americans on how to have tough conversations around long term care and the importance of planning. In fact, last year we embarked on a journey to help facilitate these discussions through our Let’s Talk national initiative. ”Rising Cost of Long Term Care Nationally, the 2015 median hourly cost for services of a home health aide hired from a home care agency is $20. Home health aide services have risen, on average, one percent annually over the past five years. In California, the median hourly cost of home health aide services is $23. The median hourly cost for home health aide services in California have increased, on average, 2.3 percent annually over the past five years. By comparison, the median annual cost for care in an assisted living facility is $43,200 nationally and $45,000 in California."

Lastly, I include our video tutorial that will quickly teach you how to look up your state’s average cost of assisted living, as well as our recommendations on how to get pricing and costs for specific facilities you are interested in!At this time, the National Median Cost for Assisted Living (Private, One-Bedroom) is: $3628Article By: D. Besnette Founder/Editor for Assisted Living Directory [Video] Cost of Assisted Living: Learn State Averages and For Specific Facilities Video Tutorial Produced by Assisted Living Directory Our short video tutorial will show you how to learn the average cost of assisted living facilities, nursing homes, adult day health care, and home care for your state – as well as our recommendation on getting specific facility pricing and costs. Without a doubt, one of the most common questions that comes through our site has to do with how to pay for assisted living, and if Medicare covers any or all of the cost of assisted living. Many of the messages that we receive are from children of aging parents who are suddenly faced with the reality of placing their mom or dad into a long-term care environment, or assisted living – and not having any idea of how they, or their parents are going to afford the cost of the care. Unfortunately, too many families do not plan in advance for long-term care, and families are often times surprised…even shocked at how expensive assisted living can be. Unfortunately, many people make the assumption that assisted living will be covered by health insurance, Medicare, or our government in some way – only to learn that much of, if not all of the cost will be coming out of their own pockets. Without thoughtful advance planning, out-of-pocket expenses for an aging loved one can be financially devastating. Let’s first talk about what we have seen as far as the cost of assisted living."

"text": "If the time comes when you can no longer manage daily living in your own home or with family members, an apartment in an assisted living facility could be the next best thing. But if you, like many, were thinking that Medicare will cover the cost of assisted living, think again. Medicare isn’t designed to pay for long-term care. “At the end of the day, your options for paying for long-term care in this country are two: You pay (completely) out of pocket or you pay out of pocket until you get to the point where you impoverish yourself and then go on Medicaid,” says David Kyllo, executive director of the National Center for Assisted Living, or NCAL, in Washington, D. C. Both options may sound equally bleak, but for the vast majority who pay for assisted living through their own means, coming up with a plan to finance the move will at least make it more feasible. The national median monthly rate for a one-bedroom unit in an assisted living facility is $3,500, according to the 2014 Cost of Care Survey released in April by Genworth Financial Inc. of Richmond, Virginia. That’s $42,000 per year, an increase of 1.45 percent over 2013. The cost has been rising by an average of 4.29 percent annually over the past five years. Now consider this factoid from Kyllo: The typical assisted living resident has an income of about $19,000 per year. Obviously, most residents must tap additional resources to cover the cost, and the funds often come from the sale of their biggest asset: their homes. RELATED: The basic differences between Medicaid vs. Medicare A bridge loan can help until home is sold“Assisted living is need-driven,” says Kyllo. “"

The assisted living concept was created to provide an additional option bridging the two. Assisted living is a community-based long-term living arrangement designed for seniors who need some help with the activities of daily living (ADLs), but who want to preserve as much independence as possible. Typically, the help seniors get in assisted living facilities is individualized to meet each resident’s needs and desires. Depending on the situation, services can be added or removed as circumstances and choices dictate. Click the links below to learn more about assisted living.

For all involved it’s a new emotional and financial challenge. But the more prepared you are the better decision you’ll make. What is a Nursing Home? Nursing homes provide their residents with 24-hour safety monitoring, daily living assistance, and advanced on-site medical care. They also sponsor social activities such as art classes, cooking classes, birthday parties and movie nights. A nursing home is place for a person who can’t be cared for at home but don’t need a hospital. Nursing homes typically have a nursing staff on site 24 hours a day. Some are set up like hospitals with physical, speech and occupational therapy. Some have special units for Alzheimer and dementia patients."

The ease of access is determined by things such as availability of health care services, location of health care facilities, transportation, hours of operation, and cost-effective delivery of health care. Efforts to improve access often focus on improving efficiency of health care delivery processes. Adjudication In VA, adjudication usually refers to the process of obtaining and reviewing facts in a particular claim to make a decision whether to grant benefits in view of the laws governing these benefits. Adjunct Condition An adjunct condition, for medical treatment purposes, is a non service-connected condition that may be associated with and held to be aggravating an adjudicated service-connected condition. VA bills health insurance plans for treatment of an adjunct condition and as applicable, may charge a copay for treatment of the adjunct condition. Adult Day Health Care Adult Day Health Care is a therapeutic day care program, providing medical and rehabilitation services to disabled Veterans in a group setting. Agent Orange Agent Orange was a defoliant used during the Vietnam War.

This saves you time, cost and the need for anesthetics. Some of the procedures that we provide in the office include: Hysteroscopy Hysteroscopy is a procedure used to view the inside of the uterus. It uses a narrow scope placed inside the uterus to visualize the contents and treat many conditions found there. This allows many women to have a simple outpatient procedure rather than hysterectomy. Recovery times are typically only a day or two and post operative pain is often limited to minor cramping. Examples of conditions that may be treated hysteroscopically include leiomyomas (fibroid tumors) found in the uterine cavity, polyps found in the uterine cavity, and uterine lining that has grown too thick. Your Carteret Ob/Gyn provider can tell you whether hysteroscopy is right for your individual situation. Colposcopy Colposcopy is a special examination of the cervix performed when there is an abnormal pap smear. The cervix is prepared with special stains to make abnormal cells stand out."

"text": "\"Colony Of New Jersey A Brief History\"\"New Jersey was so named, in 1664, at the time of its conquest by the English from the Dutch, in honor of Sir George Carteret, who had been governor of the Isle of Jersey, in the British Channel, and to whom, with Lord Berkley, the Duke of York conveyed the territory. Until 1664, the territory continued under the jurisdiction of the Dutch, at New Netherlands . In March of that year, Charles II conveyed the whole territory to his brother, the Duke of York, who, in July, sold the tract called New Jersey to Carteret and Berkley, about three months prior to its reduction by Colonel Nichols [a British Governor that had acquired land grants from Native Americans under Dutch rule]. The first settlement in New Jersey was probably about the year 1620, at Bergen, a village a few miles west of New York. Fort Nassau, five miles from Camden, was built in 1623, but was deserted not long after. A few other settlements were made in the territory, but the settlement of Elizabethtown, in 1664, by persons from Long Island, is generally fixed upon as the era of colonization. The following year, 1665, Philip Carteret, appointed governor by the proprietors, arrived at Elizabethtown, which he made the seat of government. He brought with him a constitution for the colony, which ordained a free assembly, consisting of a governor, council, and representatives; the latter to be chosen by each town. The legislative power resided in the assembly, the executive, in the governor and council. The liberal provisions of this constitution, in connection with the fertility of the soil and salubrity of the climate, soon induced emigrants, chiefly from New England and New York, to form settlements within the territory. And, for some years, these settlements enjoyed an unusual exemption from the hardships and sufferings to which most of the other early colonies were subjected."

"text": "Carteret Islands: 'The sea is killing our island paradise'Climate change is destroying the Carteret Islands. Neil Tweedie meets a people under threat and the clan chief determined to save them. Link to this video By Neil Tweedie7:37PM GMT 09 Dec 2009When the king tide came last December, inundating the Carteret Islands, destroying precious crops and wells and turning homes into flotsam, the inhabitants, nominally Roman Catholic, turned for help to their forebears. “We thought maybe our ancestors were angry with us, that we were doing something that did not please them,” remembers Bernard Tunim, one of the clan chiefs. “ So we killed a pig and had a big feast and told them that we are doing this because of the king tide and the swamping of the island, but nothing happened. Then we realised it was something else. ”The people of the Carterets, a group of low-lying islets in the south-west Pacific Ocean, some 60 miles from the Solomon Islands, display an uninhibited belief in the supernatural. When the sea is too rough for the small banana boats that provide their only regular link with the outside world, one of the older men is asked to speak to the wind, to appeal to it for calm. But the forces overwhelming these tiny outcrops, the highest point of which is only five feet above sea level, are not otherworldly. The people of the Carterets, for 300 years ignored by all but a few passers-by, can lay claim to a dubious distinction: within the next six months, some 240 of them – 40 families – will leave for good, driven from their homes by sea-level rise."

"text": "\"US History E-Text > Middle Colonies > New Jersey New Jersey The first settlements in New Jersey were made by the Dutch along the western bank of the Hudson, with one on the Delaware at Fort Nassau; but these settlements were insignificant, and the history of the colony properly begins with the occupation of the territory by the English. New Jersey was included in the grant of Charles II to his brother James, the Duke of York, in 1664. The same year James disposed of the province to two of his friends, Lord Berkeley and Sir George Carteret, and it was named in honor of the latter, who had been governor of the island of Jersey in the English Channel. The next year Carteret began to colonize his new possessions. He sent his nephew, Philip Carteret, as governor, who, with a company of emigrants, made the first settlement at Elizabethtown, so named in honor of Sir George's wife. A still larger number came from New England, especially from New Haven, because of the great dissatisfaction in that colony with its forced union with Connecticut. These Puritans founded Newark and adjacent towns. Carteret granted a form of government in what was known as the \"\"Concessions,\"\" which granted religious liberty to Englishmen in the new colony, and a government to be carried on by a governor, council, and an assembly of twelve to be chosen by the people, and no taxes were to be laid without the consent of the assembly. A farm, free for five years, was offered to any one \"\"having a good musket... and six months' provisions,\"\" 1who should embark with the governor, or meet him on his arrival; while those who came later were to pay a half-penny an acre quitrent. The first assembly met in 1668, and the severity of the code of laws adopted plainly indicated the Puritan domination of the colony."

"text": "0:00Copy In North Carolina, a battle over climate change View Photos The state’s forecast for sea-level rise and what it means for the Outer Banks meets pushback from some residents. By Lori Montgomery June 24, 2014 Email the author NAGS HEAD, N. C. — The dangers of climate change were revealed to Willo Kelly in a government conference room in the summer of 2011. By the end of the century, state officials said, the ocean would be 39 inches higher and her home on the Outer Banks would be swamped. The state had detailed maps to illustrate this claim and was developing a Web site where people could check by street address to see if their property was doomed. There was no talk of salvation, no plan to hold back the tide. The 39-inch forecast was “a death sentence,” Kelly said, “for ever trying to sell your house. ”So Kelly, a lobbyist for Realtors and home builders on the Outer Banks, resolved to prove the forecast wrong. And thus began one of the nation’s most notorious battles over climate change. Coastal residents joined forces with climate skeptics to attack the science of global warming and persuade North Carolina’s Republican-controlled legislature to deep-six the 39-inch projection, which had been advanced under the outgoing Democratic governor. Now, the state is working on a new forecast that will look only 30 years out and therefore show the seas rising by no more than eight inches."

[ 4] One year later she was captured by the French and renamed La Concorde de Nantes. She was captured by Blackbeard and his pirates in 1717. Blackbeard used the ship for less than a year, [5] but captured numerous prizes using her as his flagship. In 1718, Blackbeard ran the ship aground at Beaufort Inlet, North Carolina, in the present-day Carteret County. [ 5] After the grounding, her crew and supplies were transferred to smaller ships. In 1996 Intersal, Inc., a private firm, discovered the remains of a vessel that was later determined to be Queen Anne's Revenge, which was added to the U. S. National Register of Historic Places.

S is oftentimes prohibitive and can range widely, from around $5,000 per month up to a whopping $25,000 per month. How much a nursing home charges depends on its geographic location, staffing levels, any specialty care offered and the facility's size and quality. A facility with a special wing for Alzheimer's and dementia residents, for example, may charge more for that special care. When you discuss fees with facility staff, be sure to ask how often, and by how much, those rates have risen in recent years to get an idea of what you can expect. Note: Skilled nursing care is different from rehabilitation care. The nursing home care discussed here is long-term, nonmedical residential care for someone who can no longer live on his or her own. That's different from acute, short-term skilled nursing or rehabilitation care that usually follows a hospitalization or a specific injury or severe illness. That kind of acute care is provided only at specially licensed skilled nursing or rehabilitation facilities and generally is paid for through Medicare and other types of health insurance. ( Some long-term care nursing homes listed in this directory also have skilled nursing or rehabilitation wings. ) What follows are some more options that may be available to help pay for your loved one's long-term nursing home care:1."

From all inclusive rates to individual charges for rent and services, find the best match for you or a loved one Many older people who need help with daily activities opt to move to an apartment in an assisted living building. But shopping for the right place can be confusing, especially when it comes to the pricing. Some buildings charge rent and also for each individual service. Other assisted living properties charge what's called a \"\"bundled\"\" or \"\"all inclusive\"\" rate that includes most of the everyday services. Still other buildings offer pricing based on levels of care. The variety of pricing options makes it difficult for families and seniors to compare the cost of different buildings. It's also hard to know what the exact monthly cost will be, which makes it tough to budget. \"\" Buying assisted living is like any other purchase,\"\" says Signe Gleeson, president at Elder Care Solutions, a Naperville-based firm that helps families and seniors with care decisions. \"\" Consumers have to be aware of the variations in pricing. \"\""

The cost of senior housing is the most persuasive elements in the decision process for consumers. The factors that affect the price and expenses are the location, amenities, services, and the living space like an apartment or a room. The first step is to figure out how to pay for it. Most Americans believe that Medicare, the federal health insurance program for people age 65 and older and some younger people with disabilities, pays for long-term care like assisted living. It does not. While Medicare and its various components tend to constitute the chief healthcare insurance for many seniors 65 and older, its role for assisted living facility residents is somewhat different. Rather it augments a separate financial plan designed to cover the costs of assisted living. As an example, the rent for an assisted living facility resident is not covered by Medicare, nor are so-called non-skilled services. These include assistance with daily activities including grooming, clothing oneself and assistance at mealtime."

However, to better understand how and when Medicaid's home care benefits apply, it is necessary to provide some background information on what Medicaid is and how it works. Funds for Medicaid come from both the federal government and the individual state governments and as such, the rules governing Medicaid also come from two sources. The federal government sets certain standards but gives the states considerable flexibility with regards to the services they provide. This is especially true in the area of home care. A second complication to understanding Medicaid's home care benefits is that within each state there are multiple Medicaid programs that offer different home care benefits."

"text": "Key Differences Between Independent Living and Assisted Living8 Comments Follow Comments By Anne-Marie Botek| Last Updated 3.9.2018It can be overwhelming to find a new living arrangement for an aging loved one, especially for those who are unfamiliar with the nuances of senior living options. In order to find the best fit, one must understand what types of housing and care are available and the key differences between them. Senior care exists on a spectrum, and independent living (IL) is the least restrictive and assistive residential option. One step above IL is assisted living (AL). AL is also minimally restrictive, but as the name implies, this residential setting offers assistive services and supports. Let’s take a closer look at the differences and similarities between these two senior living options. Living Spaces The independent living category encompasses a wide range of housing arrangements, from apartment-style communities to housing co-ops. Generally, though, residents live in their own private dwelling spaces and have access to common areas where they can gather with other members of the community. Independent living can also be referred to as an active adult community, senior apartments, a retirement community, a 55+ community, or a retirement home. Because this option is designed for seniors who can still live independently, the features and amenities in the individual dwelling areas are comparable to those in a typical small home, townhouse or apartment."

Matthews is a Caring.com Expert, an attorney, and the author of Long-Term Care: How to Plan & Pay for It and Social Security, Medicare, & Government Pensions: Get the Most Out of Your Retirement & Medical Benefits . In most but not all states, there are special Medicaid programs that can help pay some of the costs of an assisted-living facility. Although assisted living is not part of basic Medicaid coverage, Medicaid now recognizes that for many people it's a better and less expensive alternative than a nursing home. So, in partnership with the states, Medicaid has recently been expanding its coverage of assisted living. If you live in one of the following states, the Medicaid program might cover some but not all of the costs of assisted living: Alaska Arizona Arkansas California (very limited three-county pilot program in Los Angeles, San Joaquin, and Sacramento counties) Colorado Connecticut Delaware District of Columbia (under development) Florida Georgia Hawaii Idaho Illinois Indiana Iowa Kansas Maine Maryland Massachusetts Michigan Minnesota Mississippi Missouri Montana Nebraska Nevada New Hampshire New Jersey New Mexico New York North Carolina North Dakota Ohio Oklahoma (under development) Oregon Rhode Island South Dakota Tennessee Texas Utah Vermont Virginia (Alzheimer's patients only) Washington Wisconsin Wyoming The rules are different for each state. And in every state that offers Medicaid coverage, there are significant restrictions on whether Medicaid will pay, as well as limitations on how much it will pay. The restrictions and limitations might include any of the following: Services but not room and board. Many programs will pay for some personal care services provided by the facility but not for room and board. Other state programs will pay a part of room and board costs."

We have compiled estimated costs of assisted living facilities in the United States from many industry surveys. The costs of assisted living care depend on the level of service a resident requires. The 2010 CDC National Survey of Residential Care Facilities provides some treasured insights into the costs of assisted living, but also how facilities charge residents. Genworth Financial notes that the costs of assisted living has gone up more than nursing homes, adult day care and home care. Many times, residents that would go into a nursing home can use an assisted living facility instead. They argue that the rise in cost is just a bit more than average inflation.

"text": "\"Assisted Living vs. Nursing Home Care Which type of senior care is right for your aging loved one? By Melanie Carroll, Eldercare Expert | Last updated: Nov 28, 2017There is a lot of confusion about the different types of senior living available today, but two of the best-known types of residential senior care are assisted living communities and nursing homes. One way to characterize the difference between nursing homes and assisted living facilities is to describe the former as more hospital-like and the latter as more home-like. When my still-active grandparents, then in their 60s, moved into an assisted living community apartment back in the 1980s, it was a somewhat novel concept. Living there, they were able to get help if they needed it, but otherwise remained fairly independent. In contrast, a nursing home, also known as a skilled nursing facility, provides 24-7 care for seniors requiring medical support. While assisted living facilities operate on a non-medical model, the distinction between a nursing home versus an assisted living facility can seem a little blurry. Still, differences remain between the two types of senior residential care, including how they’re licensed and how they get paid for the care they provide. Different Care Needs Among those 65 and older, nearly 70 percent will develop disabilities before they die and 35 percent will eventually enter a nursing home, according to the San Francisco-based nonprofit Family Caregiver Alliance. Skilled nursing care may be needed on either a short-term or long-term basis, said Elizabeth Chiappetta, an attorney with the Pittsburgh-based law firm Robert Peirce & Associates."

Nursing homes provide their residents with 24-hour safety monitoring, daily living assistance, and advanced on-site medical care. They also sponsor social activities such as art classes, cooking classes, birthday parties and movie nights. A nursing home is place for a person who can’t be cared for at home but don’t need a hospital. Nursing homes typically have a nursing staff on site 24 hours a day. Some are set up like hospitals with physical, speech and occupational therapy. Some have special units for Alzheimer and dementia patients."

Here’s what you need to know about paying for live-in care and average live-in caregiver salaries. SEE ALSO: Find In-Home Care Help Near You Dollars and sense The costs for any type of senior care vary depending on geographical region and the care recipient’s needs, but the average salary for a live-in caregiver is about $24,000 annually, or $2,000 a month, according to Payscale.com, which provides online information about salaries and benefits. Assisted living is more than double that, typically costing around $4,000 monthly; nursing home care in the U. S. typically costs more than $6,500 a month. But it’s not always as simple as paying a flat fee for service."

"text": "10 Ways to Beat the High Cost of Assisted Living Posted On 18 Apr 2017 By : Sarah Stevenson Tweet Pin It Are you aware of these tips that can help you and your loved ones afford senior living, without compromising the quality of care? Learn more about how to beat the high costs of assisted living. How to Better Afford Assisted Living Arranging senior living can be challenging, emotionally taxing and expensive, particularly when a person requires senior living with personal care, such as an assisted living community, residential care home or memory care provider. “For family members seeking a place for a loved one,” says Tom L. who worked with A Place for Mom, “it can be a difficult time emotionally and mentally. ”Add to that the ever- rising costs of senior care — and the average monthly assisted living rent — and the situation can go from difficult to overwhelming. For the countless families caught in the gap between being able to pay for senior care out of pocket and, at the other end of the spectrum, having low enough income and assets to qualify for Medicaid, finding affordable assisted living may seem like an impossible dilemma. But don’t lose heart — there are plenty of strategies that can help you fit quality senior care into your budget:1. Plan Ahead and Do Your Research Give yourself and your senior loved ones enough time to evaluate senior care communities before they move in. If you’ve got your eye on a specific location, join the waiting list. If you wait until the last minute, you may end up having to pay for a community that’s at the high end of your budget — or that doesn’t meet your needs.2."

"text": "\"Guide to Long Term Care Planning About Long Term Careby Thomas Day What Is Long Term Care? When a person requires someone else to help him with his physical or emotional needs over an extended period of time, this is long-term care. This help may be required for many of the activities or needs that healthy, active people take for granted and may include such things as: The National Care Planning Council is a leader in providing books and articles on timely subjects for long term care planning and VA Benefits for Seniors. Below are four of our popular books:\"\" How to Deal with 21 Critical Issues Facing Aging Seniors \"\" \"\" How to Apply for Department of Veterans Affairs Benefits for Veterans and Their Survivors \"\" \"\" The 4 Steps of Long Term Care Planning \"\" \"\" Protect Assets from Nursing Home Costs: Medicaid Secrets \"\"Walking Bathing Dressing Using the bathroom Helping with incontinence Managing Pain Preventing unsafe behavior Preventing wandering Providing comfort and assurance Providing physical or occupational therapy Attending to medical needs Counseling Feeding Answering the phone Meeting doctors' appointments Providing meals Maintaining the household Shopping and running errands Providing transportation Administering medications Managing money Paying bills Doing the laundry Attending to personal hygiene Helping with personal grooming Writing letters or notes Making repairs to the home Maintaining a yard Removing snow The need for long-term care help might be due to a terminal condition, disability, illness, injury or the infirmity of old age. Estimates by experts are that at least 60% of all individuals will need extended help in one or more of the areas above during their lifetime . The need for long-term care may only last for a few weeks or months or it may go on for years. It all depends on the underlying reasons for needing care. Temporary long term care (need for care for only weeks or months)Rehabilitation from a hospital stay Recovery from illness Recovery from injury Recovery from surgery Terminal medical condition Ongoing long term care (need for care for many months or years)Chronic medical conditions Chronic severe pain Permanent disabilities Dementia Ongoing need for help with activities of daily living Need for supervision Long-term care services may be provided in any of the following settings: In the home of the recipient In the home of a family member or friend of the recipient At an adult day services location In an assisted living facility or board-and-care home In a hospice facility In a nursing home Custodial Care versus Skilled Care Custodial care and skilled care are terms used by the medical community and health care plans such as health insurance plans, Medicare, Medicaid and the Veterans Administration. They are used primarily to differentiate care provided by medical specialists as opposed to care provided by aides, volunteers, family or friends. The use of these terms and their application is important in determining whether a health care plan will pay for services or not."

"text": "\"Americans with Disabilities Act Law and Legal Definition The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a revolutionary piece of legislation designed to protect the civil rights of people who have physical and mental disabilities, in a manner similar to that in which previous civil rights laws have protected people of various races, religions, and ethnic backgrounds. The ADA mandates changes in the way that both private businesses and the government conduct business to ensure that all Americans have full access to and can fully participate in every aspect of society. The ADA requires the removal of barriers that deny individuals with disabilities equal opportunity and access to jobs, public accommodations, government services, public transportation, and telecommunications. The law applies to small companies as well as to large ones, so small business owners must be aware of its provisions and how they affect their companies' employment practices, facilities, and products. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is the federal agency charged with enforcing the various aspects of the ADA. It is estimated that 50 million Americans, or one out of every five, have a disability. As defined in the ADA, the term \"\"disability\"\" applies to three categories of individuals: 1) people who have a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities; 2) people who have a record of an impairment which substantially limits major life activities; and 3) people who may be regarded by others as having such an impairment. For an employee or job applicant to be protected by the ADA, an individual must be \"\"disabled\"\" in one or more of the above manners, be \"\"otherwise qualified\"\" for the position, and be able to perform the essential functions of the job, \"\"with or without accommodation. \"\" PROVISIONS OF THE ADAPresident George H. Bush signed the ADA into law on July 26, 1990. The legal structure of the ADA is based on the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Rehabilitation Act of 1973."

"text": "Lyle Denniston Independent Contractor Reporter Posted Wed, November 21st, 2012 12:03 am Email Lyle Bio & Post Archive »Argument preview: Who is a supervisor? At 11 a.m. next Monday, the Supreme Court will hold one hour of oral argument on a case seeking a clear definition of who is a workplace supervisor, under federal anti-discrimination law. The case is Vance v. Ball State University (docket 11-556). Arguing for kitchen employee Maetta Vance will be Daniel R. Ortiz of Charlottesville, Virginia, a University of Virginia law professor. He will have twenty-five minutes at the lectern. Arguing for Ball State University, and also with twenty-five minutes of time, will be Gregory G. Garre of the Washington, D. C., office of Latham & Watkins. Arguing between them with ten minutes of time will be Deputy U. S. Solicitor General Sri Srinivasan. The government supports Vance’s argument about who is a supervisor, but argues that Vance herself does not qualify to make that argument.—————————–Background The Supreme Court has been trying since at least 1998 — not altogether successfully — to sort out who qualifies as a supervisor, under the nation’s most important workplace discrimination law, Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. There is a sharp disagreement among lower federal courts on how to interpret what the Justices have said about that, so now the Court is returning to try again. The case may not be a true test case, though, since the federal government has twice taken the position that the female worker who brought the case may not have identified anyone who actually serves as her supervisor in her kitchen job at Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana."

[ 1] With the goal of eliminating this type of discrimination, Congress enacted the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. [ 2]The mission of the ADA is to “assure equality of opportunity, full participation, independent living, and economic self-sufficiency to persons with disabilities.” [ 3] While the ADA has spawned litigation and evoked heated discussions, very little systematic research has been done on the impact the ADA has upon those it was intended to help. [ 4]In this chapter, the Commission explores the practical effects of the ADA. By understanding and addressing the issues surrounding the actual effects of the ADA, policymakers, legislatures, and private organizations will be better able to embrace the ADA and strive to eliminate discrimination against people with disabilities. To achieve this objective, the Commission addresses the effects of the ADA on people with disabilities, how businesses and employers have implemented and complied with the demands of the ADA, the relation between federal disability benefits programs and the ADA, and the legislative and executive changes it generated. Effects on Individuals with Disabilities Overall Impact of the ADAOne of the areas of improvements were access to buildings, greater inclusion of people with disabilities in the community, increased public sensitivity and awareness, public respect and acceptance.

Once you make the jump, it can be very difficult to return to private practice primarily because law firms will question your commitment to returning on a long-term basis. Thus, every effort should be made to ensure that your decision to go in-house is a well-informed one. I practiced law for approximately 10 years, as both a law firm associate and an in-house attorney, and I wanted to share my experiences as an in-house attorney to help anyone thinking about going in-house understand the advantages and disadvantages of doing so before making that jump. My Life as a Law Firm Associate I was an associate in the Los Angeles office of an Am Law 50, New York-based law firm for approximately five years. My experience as a law firm associate was generally very positive for a variety of reasons: no minimum billable-hours requirement, top-of-the-market New York salary, significant responsibilities on sophisticated deals, and a collegial atmosphere.

Bell Prairie View A&M University A Research Associate is a budgeted position with a formal job description that is perpetual in an academic institution. A Research Fellow, on the other hand, is a limited-term appointment that is normally funded by an endowment or research grant from a state, federal or private company. Although both will engage in research activities, the Fellow is normally paired to a senior scholar whose work he or she will assist. The Research Associate, on the other hand, will normally work in a department and be available to offer research assistance (consultancy help) to a number of faculty and graduate students needing assistance with technical aspects of their research.

The employment provisions of title I of the ADA apply to private employers, State and local governments, employment agencies, and labor unions. Employers with 25 or more employees were covered starting July 26, 1992, when title I went into effect. Employers with 15 or more employees were covered two years later, beginning July 26, 1994. In addition, the employment practices of State and local governments of any size are covered by title II of the ADA, which goes into effect on January 26, 1992. The standards to be used under title II for determining whether employment discrimination has occurred depend on whether the public entity at issue is also covered by title I. Beginning July 26, 1992, if the public entity is covered by title I, then title I standards will apply. If not, the standards of section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act will apply. From January 26, 1992, when title II went into effect, until July 26, 1992, when title I went into effect, public entities were subject to the section 504 standards. What practices and activities are covered by the employment nondiscrimination requirements? A.

"text": "Start Printed Page 82228AGENCY: Executive Office of the President, Office of Management and Budget (OMB), Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs. ACTION: Notice of decision. SUMMARY: This Notice announces OMB's adoption of Standards for Defining Metropolitan and Micropolitan Statistical Areas. These new standards replace and supersede the 1990 standards for defining Metropolitan Areas. In arriving at its decision, OMB accepted many of the recommendations of the interagency Metropolitan Area Standards Review Committee (the Review Committee) as published in the August 22, 2000 Federal Register. In response to public comment, and with the further advice of the Review Committee, OMB modified the recommended criteria for titling Combined Statistical Areas, identifying Principal Cities, and determining Metropolitan Divisions. The new standards appear at the end of this Notice in Section D. The Supplementary Information in this Notice provides background information on the standards (Section A), a brief synopsis of the public comments OMB received in response to the August 22, 2000 Federal Register notice (Section B), and OMB's decisions on the final recommendations of the Review Committee (Section C). The adoption of these new standards will not affect the availability of Federal data for geographic areas such as states, counties, county subdivisions, and municipalities. For the near term, the Census Bureau will tabulate and publish data from Census 2000 for all Metropolitan Areas in existence at the time of the census (that is, those areas defined as of April 1, 2000). EFFECTIVE DATE: This Notice is effective immediately."

By breaking down these barriers, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) will enable society to benefit from the skills and talents of individuals with disabilities, will allow us all to gain from their increased purchasing power and ability to use it, and will lead to fuller, more productive lives for all Americans. The Americans with Disabilities Act gives civil rights protections to individuals with disabilities similar to those provided to individuals on the basis of race, color, sex, national origin, age, and religion. It guarantees equal opportunity for individuals with disabilities in public accommodations, employment, transportation, State and local government services, and telecommunications.

"text": "\"Auto GOJA Guidelines Oriented Job Analysis > Benefits of a Job Analysis What are the Benefits of Performing a Job Analysis? A job analysis consists of a thorough analysis of the job duties and knowledge, skills, abilities, and personal characteristics (KSAPCs) required for success in a certain position. However, a job analysis can sometimes take a substantial amount of time and effort. So why should an organization consider performing a job analysis? The primary reason an organization will perform a job analysis is to ensure the selection procedures they use to choose between job applicants are valid and defensible. Practically speaking, a valid selection procedure is one that accurately measures the actual requirements of the job in a fair and reliable way. A valid selection procedure should measure only knowledge, skills, abilities, and personal characteristics that the job analysis has identified as being required to perform important and/or critical job duties. Essentially, a valid selection procedure should only measure the qualifications that are really needed for the job. In the legal realm, a selection procedure is valid if it can be proven by an employer in litigation that it is \"\"... job related and consistent with business necessity\"\" (see Griggs v. Duke Power Co., 401 U. S. 424 ,1971), to address the requirements of the various federal Civil Rights Act. This standard is usually met (or not) by arguing how the selection procedure address, (1) the federal Uniform Guidelines on Employee Selection Procedures (1978); (2) professional testing standards, such as, but not limited to, the Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology’s Principles for the Validation and Use of Personnel Selection Procedures (SIOP Principles, 2003) and the American Psychological Association’s Standards for Education and Psychological Testing (APA Standards, 1999); and three (3) court decisions that have examined the validity of employment testing in various settings."

This process is used to determine placement of jobs. Under NU Values the decision-making in this area is shared by units and Human Resources. Specific internal approval processes will be determined by the unit's organizational leadership. Job analysis defines the organization of jobs within a job family. It allows units to identify paths of job progression for employees interested in improving their opportunities for career advancement and increasing compensation. A relative value is placed on the differing factors described in the Zone Placemnet Matrix. All new and existing positions will be assigned to a job family and zone using the job analysis process. This process is designed to place positions into families and zones based upon assigned duties, qualifications and competencies as measured by the five criteria found in the Zone Placement Matrix. Organizational unit leaders are encouraged to consult with Human Resources for guidance at any step in the job analysis process."

There are two types, one of which is official and usually called an \"\"integrated bar\"\" which is qualified by the particular state's highest court to establish rules for admission and conduct. There are also local bar associations by city or county which are unofficial and voluntary, but do conduct the business of attorneys, such as settling fee disputes and working with the local courts on rules. There is also the American Bar Association, a national voluntary organization of attorneys. Bar Association Definition - Wikipedia A bar association is a professional body of lawyers. Some bar associations are responsible for the regulation of the legal profession in their jurisdiction; others are professional organizations dedicated to serving their members; in many cases, they are both. In many Commonwealth jurisdictions, the \"\"bar association\"\" comprises lawyers who are qualified as barristers or advocates (collectively known as \"\"the bar\"\", or \"\"members of the bar\"\"), while the \"\"law society\"\" comprises solicitors. These bodies are sometimes mutually exclusive. In other jurisdictions, the \"\"bar\"\" may refer to the entire community of persons engaged in the practice of law. In the United States, admission to the bar is permission granted by a particular court system to a lawyer to practice law in that system."

"text": "4 0 Rate This MANAGEMENT IS CLASSIFIED AS A PROFESSIONAL DISCIPLINE BUT WHY? The nature of professionalism is reviewed and the argument made that records management can be classified as a professional discipline. Significant elements of a profession, such as university education, professional associations, and professional literature, have developed in records management. Further professionalization of the discipline has gained momentum with the development of electronic records, which have given rise to a new and distinct body of theory and knowledge and also triggered research activities. These developments permit records management to establish itself not only as a recognized profession, but also as a scholarly discipline. Records management was first identified and acknowledged as a distinct occupation in the early 19th century. ( 1) This activity arose in response to the growing amount of information and documents produced, used, and stored in organizations (both public and private). The need to control the production, storage, and disposition of records (i.e., documents received or created by an organization in the course of its business and retained by that organization as evidence of its activities, processes, and transactions) had become increasingly important throughout the 19th and 20th centuries. An ever-increasing volume of records has been a direct consequence of the information explosion. New information technologies (e.g., photocopiers, personal computers, the Internet) have added new dimensions to the problem of controlling records effectively and efficiently."

"text": "\"What Does Member Mean to You? By Joe Rominiecki / May 29, 2013The future of association membership models is a question of both business philosophy and language. We pack a lot of meaning into one little word. Like any profession, association management has a common language. We all use words like board, volunteer, member, meeting, chapter, and so on, and we all roughly understand each other. But in the past week I’ve been thinking about the word member and I’ve realized it means a lot of different things to a lot of different people. A couple comments to my blog post last Wednesday started it off: From Jeffrey Cufaude: “A mailbox member presumably believes in the purpose of the association s/he joined and values being associated with that community, even if their level of engagement is limited to consuming content. ”From Maggie Mc Gary: “I think that there are some ‘mailbox members’ who just pay for content, but I’ve also heard the term used dismissively to apply to members whose main interaction with other association members is via the org’s listserves or online community. ”Member could mean someone who joins for free or someone who joins for $10,000. That’s a big difference in possible meanings for one little word."

"text": "INTRODUCTIONPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a complex disease, one whose clinical manifestations and even definition are an ongoing controversy among researchers in the field. Yet the initial forays into its genetic roots have suggested a simple solution: most of the family studies have shown a dominant form of inheritance, and positive findings have been reported with candidate genes in both association and linkage studies. However, closer study of the families and more extensive genetic analysis is likely to reveal a genetic complexity to the syndrome that matches its clinical diversity. Despite these words of caution, genetic investigation of women with PCOS and their families may provide major insight into this common endocrine abnormality as well as into many of the metabolic sequelae that have been reported, including diabetes, gynecologic cancers, and heart disease. The purpose of this chapter is to review the literature on the ethnicity and genetics of PCOS, discuss some preliminary results from the molecular genetic investigations into PCOS, and discuss our model and preliminary results of research. DEFINITIONThere is no consensus as to the clinical definition of PCOS. Unfortunately, to date, there is no consistent clinical marker or phenotype that is unique to PCOS distinguishing it from other forms of hyperandrogenism. As a reference point, we will use the criteria based on the 1990 NIH-NICHD conference on PCOS: hyperandrogenism and/or hyperandrogenemia, oligo-ovulation, and exclusion of other known disorders, such as congenital adrenal hyperplasia, hyperprolactinemia, or Cushing's syndrome. 1 This may be summarized as unexplained hyperandrogenic chronic anovulation. We have further narrowed this definition to the documentation of hyperandrogenemia (testosterone or unbound testosterone more than two standard deviations above a control group of cycling reproductive-age women), combined with six or fewer episodes of vaginal bleeding a year."

"text": "\"Related Articles1The Advantages of Bringing on a Business Partner2The Advantages of Having an LLC3The Advantages & Disadvantages of Creating Subsidiary & Operating Companies4What Titles Do You Give an Owner or Partner in an LLC? There are several advantages to taking on an associate business partner, provided that the partner is someone you can rely on, to contribute to the operations and management of your business. Before taking on a partner you will need to discuss any potential ramifications with your lawyer as well as your accountant. Associate Partner In most instances, an associate partner will be different from a general partner. An associate partner may be an equity or a non-equity partner and may take part in the management of the company, or he may not, depending on how you structure the partnership. There is no overall definition of what it means to be an associate partner in every general context, but associate partners generally lack some form of privilege or right reserved for a general partner. Major Advantages The major advantages of having an associate business partner are that the partner can provide you with the capital necessary to jump-start your business. A partner can help bring additional business in through his connections and can share in any potential liability associated with your business. Even if you do not have a partner, you can limit the liability associated with your business by forming your business as a limited liability company, but having a partner may help you avoid any liability that is outside of the protection provided by limited liability company formation. Other Advantages Important among the other advantages of having a business partner is that he can help to keep you personally accountable for tasks you've promised to complete."

For example: GOOD: You're a member of a growing group of psychologists who say pedophilia should be considered a sexual orientation. Why? Quinsey: Part of the definition of pedophilia is a person has a preference for a particular kind of partner. [...] pedophiles, unlike other men, show substantial sexual interest in prepubescent children. As far as we know—and many people have tried—these sexual interests are not modifiable by any method that’s been tried yet. So it appears like pedophilia is a sexual orientation.

In my first job out of college, I started as an \"\"associate engineer\"\" and I was promoted a while later to \"\"associate project engineer.\"\" I switched companies and instantly became a \"\"senior engineer\"\" with 1.5yrs experience.ivymike (Mechanical) 28 Nov 12 11:11....but if that sounds silly, consider all the people hired with very little experience as \"\"VP Sales\"\"KENAT (Mechanical) 28 Nov 12 11:33Like ivymike says except for a few fairly structured industries titles mean very little between different employers/companies. In fact even within many companies they mean little to nothing, they don't always directly correspond to pay, responsibility or any other obvious indicator."

"text": "Pay & Leave Leave Administration Fact Sheet: Leave for Funerals and Bereavement Funeral Leave for Combat-Related Death of an Immediate Relative An employee is entitled to up to 3 workdays of funeral leave to make arrangements for or to attend the funeral of an immediate relative who died as a result of wounds, disease, or injury incurred while serving as a member of the Armed Forces in a combat zone. If the employee provides satisfactory reasons, the 3 workdays do not need to be consecutive. Armed Forces means the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard, and includes the Reserve components, National Guard, and Air National Guard. Combat zones are areas the President designates by Executive order, in accordance with section 112 of the Internal Revenue Code, as areas in which the Armed Forces are engaging or have engaged in combat. Current areas designated as combat zones can be found in IRS Publication 3. ( external link) (PDF file)Immediate relative covers a wide range of relationships, including spouse; parents; parents-in-law; children; brothers; sisters; grandparents; grandchildren; step parents; step children; foster parents; foster children; guardianship relationships; same sex and opposite sex domestic partners; and spouses or domestic partners of the aforementioned, as applicable. The list of immediate relatives for whom an employee may request funeral leave (as well as important associated definitions for the terms son or daughter, parent, domestic partner, and committed relationship) may be found in the fact sheet entitled Definitions Related to Family Member and Immediate Relative for Leave Purposes. Note: When an employee requests funeral leave for a combat-related death of an immediate relative, the agency may require the employee to document his or her relationship to that immediate relative. Agencies should establish consistent rules and follow the same documentation requirements for all relationships, but agencies have authority to request additional information in cases of suspected leave abuse.

"title": "http://www.top-law-schools.com/introduction-to-biglaw.html\nAn Introduction to âBiglawâ",
"text": "An Introduction to “Biglaw”Published April 2010, last updated September 2010The term “biglaw” pervades the pre-law online community. It is sometimes framed as the natural career path for ambitious students, sometimes held up as an almost unachievable prize, pursued mostly by the foolish and uninformed, and at other times spoken of ruefully as an unavoidable fate. Some focus on sky-high salaries while waving away the real-life implications of long hours, while others lament a future filled with crushing boredom and the inevitable loss of one's soul. All of these perspectives are grounded in fact, but they are exaggerated in the emotionally charged online discourse on biglaw. This article is an attempt to provide some factual context for that discourse. Definition Although the term “biglaw” is prone to some variance in usage, the most commonly accepted definitions would stipulate that a biglaw job involves working in a large firm (the definition of “large” can also vary; the minimum would be 101 attorneys or more) that pays attorneys the market rate for large firms (currently starting at $160,000 a year), demands long hours, and tends to represent large corporations rather than individuals. It should be noted that these are not four totally separate criteria with any combination of filled and unfilled possible; some factors tend to carry others with them. For example, it would be odd for a firm to pay first-year associates $160,000 but never require them to work more than 40 hours per week. It is common for biglaw firms to have multiple offices in the United States or internationally. Some argue that biglaw should be delineated not by firm size per se but by a firm's inclusion in a well-known ranking of law firms, such as the NLJ 250 or the Vault 100, but this would not significantly change the firms that are included in the classification."

Kaminski, Associate Legislative Attorney You asked if opposite-sex domestic partners (i.e., a cohabitating heterosexual couple) are eligible for health insurance as each others ' dependents and if not, if this is discrimination. You also asked how this issue has been addressed by the courts and whether insurance companies offer coverage for opposite-sex domestic partners. OLR is not authorized to give legal opinions and this should not be interpreted as such. SUMMARYEmployers sponsoring group health insurance plans for their employees define the policy ' s eligibility criteria. When they purchase a policy from an insurance company or health maintenance organization, the eligibility requirements are specifically stated in the policy. Thus, whether opposite-sex domestic partners are eligible under the policy is determined by the employer. For municipalities, coverage decisions are usually set by ordinance, collective bargaining agreement, or both. Many employers extend their eligibility to include domestic partners; some limit it to same-sex partners while others extend it to both same-sex and opposite-sex partners. Those that limit it to only same-sex partners may do so to limit plan costs or because same-sex partners cannot legally marry and obtain spousal benefits. The federal Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) largely preempts state and local regulation of employee health benefit plans."

Since humans are social beings, partnerships between individual, businesses, interest-based organizations, schools, governments, and varied combinations thereof, have always been and remain commonplace. In the most frequently associated instance of the termo, a partnership is formed between one or more businesses in which partners co-labor to achieve and share profits and losses. Partnerships exist within, and across, sectors. Non-profit, religious, and political organizations may partner together to increase the likelihood of each achieving their mission and to amplify their reach. In what is usually called an alliance, governments may partner to achieve their national interests, sometimes against allied governments who hold contrary interests, such as occurred during World War II and the Cold War. In education, accrediting agencies increasingly evaluate schools by the level and quality of their partnerships with other schools and a variety of other entities across societal sectors. Partnerships also occur at personal levels, such as when two or more individuals agree to domicile together, while other partnerships are not only personal but private, known only ti the involved parties.

"text": "\"What Does Member Mean to You? By Joe Rominiecki / May 29, 2013The future of association membership models is a question of both business philosophy and language. We pack a lot of meaning into one little word. Like any profession, association management has a common language. We all use words like board, volunteer, member, meeting, chapter, and so on, and we all roughly understand each other. But in the past week I’ve been thinking about the word member and I’ve realized it means a lot of different things to a lot of different people. A couple comments to my blog post last Wednesday started it off: From Jeffrey Cufaude: “A mailbox member presumably believes in the purpose of the association s/he joined and values being associated with that community, even if their level of engagement is limited to consuming content. ”From Maggie Mc Gary: “I think that there are some ‘mailbox members’ who just pay for content, but I’ve also heard the term used dismissively to apply to members whose main interaction with other association members is via the org’s listserves or online community. ”Member could mean someone who joins for free or someone who joins for $10,000. That’s a big difference in possible meanings for one little word."

With morning sex being one of you (and your girlfriend’s) favorite times to get it on, you both quickly got into motion, though sleepy, and the warm sensations and natural lubrication was just what you needed to prepare for the 10 a.m. staff meeting you are leading. As you are pumping along, that dreaded sound that you have definitely heard before — and hate to hear again — makes it way from your lady and do all that you can to hold back your reaction. Instagram, late night hosts, romantic comedies and your fraternity brothers have all talked about it — often paired with humor and disgust — about the good ol'-fashioned queef. A funny word for a funny occurrence that can often be a total buzzkill when you and your partner are getting it on, queefing is a natural part of sex — but one that’s often misunderstood. In addition to you trying to fight back your own laugher or confusion when this happens, imagine what your girlfriend is going through: She could be embarrassed and maybe even ashamed so much that she can’t reach orgasm. That’s no fun for either of you, but there’s good news: Understanding what queefing is, how to deal with it and how to discuss it can make those morning sex sessions less awkward if an unexpected sound makes it way from down there.

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

"text": "Designating a Beneficiary Just as with registered accounts, you can name a beneficiary to receive the assets held in your TFSA upon your death. This feature of TFSA is a very useful estate planning tool and you should take advantage of this feature, and in doing so, ensure that your TFSA beneficiary designation is complimentary and supportive of your over all estate plan. The designation of a beneficiary can be made in any of the following ways: You can designate a specific individual as the beneficiary in the TFSA account’s documentation. You can name your estate as the TFSA beneficiary in the account’s documents and then name the beneficiaries within your will. You can leave the designation of a beneficiary blank in the TFSA documents causing the beneficiary designation to automatically default to your estate. You can leave the TFSA account’s designation of a beneficiary blank, die without a will, and let the provincial or territorial succession legislation determine the TFSA beneficiaries. Now, when it comes to actually designating a beneficiary for your TFSA, things can get a little complicated. While you can name anyone as a beneficiary, when it comes to naming a surviving spouse/common-law partner, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) provides special designation for them as either a Beneficiary or as a Successor Holder, and the CRA has their own specific TFSA definitions of a beneficiary, as outlined below. In effect, there are two different types of TFSA beneficiaries:a Survivor (a surviving spouse or common-law partner) who has been designated as a Successor Holdera Designated Beneficiary (which could include your children or grand-children, a former spouse or common-law partner, a Survivor who is not a Successor Holder, your Estate, or a Qualified Donee)TFSA definitions of a beneficiary For TFSA accounts, the CRA makes reference to certain entities with TFSA specific definitions. It is important to understand the definitions in order to fully understand your options when contemplating a beneficiary designation: The first definition is that of Survivor."

This is not an example of the work written by our professional essay writers. Any opinions, findings, conclusions or recommendations expressed in this material are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of UK Essays. Darren Aronofsky's second film, Requiem for a Dream, repeats in many ways the frenzied, tragic trajectory of Pi. Where Pi's Max Cohen followed his mathematical obsession into insanity and self-destruction, Requiem now shows us the decline and fall of four individuals, Sara (Ellen Burstyn), Harry (Jared Leto), Marion (Jennifer Connelly), and Tyrone (Marlon Wayans). Sara gets hooked on diet pills, and her son, Harry, his girlfriend, Marion, and his buddy Tyrone are all junkies. Whereas the end of Pi leaves Max Cohen outside, smiling, looking up at the trees, the protagonists of Requiem all collapse in a gory heap: Tyrone ends up in prison; Harry is stuck in a hospital, his arm amputated; Marion maintains her drug habit by prostituting herself; and Sara is in a psych ward after undergoing electroshock therapy. As in Pi, the frenzied excitement of Requiem for a Dream is that of the world going to hell in a hand basket. The movie is made out of hyperactivity and hallucination, both of which are finally judged to be absolutely wrong. The moralist of Requiem is, if anything, clearer than that in Pi."

"text": "Biotech vs. Big Pharma: Which is the Better Place to Work? Published: Sep 26, 2016September 22, 2016 By Mark Terry, Bio Space.com Breaking News Staff There once was a time when the distinction between biotech companies and pharmaceutical companies was fairly clear. Biotech companies were focused on proteins or large molecules; pharmaceutical companies were focused on small molecule discoveries. That difference probably didn’t last very long. As recently as 2015, Investopedia defined it as biotech companies’ drugs having a biological basis and pharmaceutical companies’ drugs having a chemical basis. This is a wildly narrow definition of what goes on, although perhaps that is how Wall Street defines things. At another level, the primary difference was focus. Biotech companies had a tendency to focus on developing compounds that could be used as drugs. This is still very much the case, with the ultimate goal of the biotech companies falling into three broad future behaviors: • Developing a molecule, taking it into the clinic, getting it approved, and essentially evolving into a drug company. • Finding and developing a molecule, at which point the molecule is licensed or the entire company is sold to a pharmaceutical company, which will take it through clinical development and onward. •"

"text": "\"The Scientist » November 2013 Issue » Features2013 Life Sciences Salary Survey The Scientist opened up its annual Salary Survey to our international readers for the first time, revealing stark differences between average pay in the U. S., Europe, and the rest of the world. By Chris Palmer and Kate Yandell | November 1, 2013L ife scientists in the United States have it good, according to The Scientist ’s 2013 Salary Survey. US researchers across academia, industry, and government earn an average of nearly $96,000 per year in total compensation, including base salary, bonuses, and other income, compared with a European average of just $66,700. Life scientists in Canada come in right in the middle, at $78,200, while researchers in India lag far behind, earning an average of just $11,200. These salary disparities, while no surprise to those in the life sciences, could explain the oft-cited “brain drain,” which has seen foreign researchers flock to the U. S. in search of good jobs with ample compensation. Dramatic budget cuts in the past few years, however, may make US academia less of a paradise. It may even drive some researchers in the life sciences to venture into higher-paying industry jobs, says John Curtis, director of research and public policy at the American Association of University Professors (AAUP). Alternatively, budding scientists looking for the best-paying jobs might steer their careers towards more lucrative fields, such as pharmacology and physiology, which pay notably more than molecular biology and genetics, according to this year’s data. Gender differences in pay are still rife in the life sciences as well, even for equivalent positions and amounts of labor. Below we break down the data by geographic region, career stage, specialty, sector, and gender."

This article is adapted from a chapter in The Nonprofit's Guide to Human Resources by Jan Masaoka, to be published by Nolo Press in the fall of 2011. To illustrate ways to analyze salaries, let's look at a simplified example of an environmental research organization. First we'll chart salary ranges, then add benchmark salaries, and then look at two ways to look at analyzing individual salaries. The five salary categories in this fictitious organization: Senior Executive: members of the management team and department heads. Salary range $60,000 to $110,000. Senior Scientist: principal investigators who bring in and direct major research projects. Salary range $60,000 to $140,000Project Manager: manages a smaller scale scientific project or administrative area of responsibility, or has substantial responsibilities under a senior scientist or senior executive. Salary range $40,000 to $65,000Research Assistants. Salary range $30,000 to 45,000Administrative Staff."

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

"text": "\"Related Articles1What Are the Significant Differences Between a Laboratory Assistant & a Laboratory Technician?2Hourly Salary of a Medical Laboratory Technician3Clinical Lab Scientist License Requirements4Job Summary: Medical Laboratory Technician The pathology laboratory provides doctors with powerful diagnostic tools. Laboratory staff perform tests on a wide range of blood and tissue samples, identifying anything from blood type to bacteria, and from cancer cells to genetic abnormalities. Laboratory staff includes technicians and technologists. Technologists benefit from longer training and perform more complex procedures than technicians. They might be referred to as medical technologists, medical laboratory scientists or clinical laboratory scientists, depending on their employer and certifications. Terminology and Certification Medical technologists and clinical laboratory scientists perform the same roles, undergo the same training, and write the same examinations. The difference between them is purely one of terminology. Some workplaces and credentialing organizations use one term, and some use the other. For example, technologists earning their certification through the American Medical Technologists or the American Association of Bioanalysts would use the MT (AMT) or MT (AAB) credential, and be called medical technologists. Their peers who certify through the American Society for Clinical Pathology would use the MLS credential, identifying them as ASCP-certified medical laboratory scientists."

Thanks for all the help you can give!1 following 4 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: It does depend on how much education you have, what section of forensics you are in, and where you live. In an average market, i would say a bachelor's degree will start you out 32,000-40,000 in most of the fields. Rural places would be less and more urban (chicago, NYC) places would get more pay but have higher cost of living. Some labs will have higher positions that require extended education (masters or Ph D) or may even pay for you to get some higher education. These jobs would pay more, probably an extra 20,000-35,000 to start out."

"text": "\"Answers.com ® Wiki Answers ® Categories Jobs & Education Education College Degrees Associates Degrees How long does it take to earn an associate's degree? Flag How long does it take to earn an associate's degree? Answer by Wendyhall Confidence votes 40If you go to school full time (at least 15 credits per semester), you can complete your degree in two years. However, the average amount of time it takes to complete an associates degree in the U. S. attending school part time is six years. Though associate's degree are two-year programs, it will take longer if basic skills courses are needed. Most colleges and universities require all incoming students who are entering a program of study be tested for basic skills. The test is broken down into four parts: sentence sense (grammar), reading comprehension, math computation, and elementary algebra. If a student does not meet the minimum score requirement in any of these areas, they are required to take non-credit refresher courses that must meet state requirements. Thus, it is possible that some students may have up to one academic year just in remedial courses before entering the college level courses. Then again, it could be a mixture of both remedial and college level."

"text": "\"Answers.com ® Wiki Answers ® Categories Jobs & Education Education College Degrees Associates Degrees How long does it take to get a biomedical science degree? Flag How long does it take to get a biomedical science degree? Answer by Joe Ragusa Confidence votes 98.7KA bachelor's degree in most areas can require between 124 to 128 college credits particular to a specific program of study. This would be based on a college or university that operates on a regular two semester academic year which is the most common. For institutions that operate on a tri-semester or quarter-semester it would be quite different. That being said, the Bachelor's degree - in most cases - is designed as a four year program of study, provided the student is full-time and follows their chosen program of study as prescribed by the college or university, and also provided the individual does not require prerequisite or developmental coursework as a result of basic skills testing. The minimum credit load for a full-time student is no less than 12 credits per semester. However, to complete the degree within the four years, a credit load of approximately 15 to 18 credits is recommended. For individuals who work or who have other responsibilities that would prohibit them from attending full-time, completion of the degree may take twice as long. Still, some of this time can be cut down by attending summer sessions and/or interim sessions."

At this early stage, they should be aware that it takes more than a degree or training certificate to qualify as a salon worker. A working license is a basic requirement in all US states. How Long Does It Take to Get a Degree in Cosmetology? An Associate’s Degree in Cosmetology takes about two-years, while the length of time to earn cosmetology training certificates varies. It can be a 350-hour or a 1500-hour training course, and will all depend on the type of salon service involved. However, regardless of your educational attainment or formal training, all US states require a working license before a person is allowed to perform salon services, like hair cutting, make-up application, facials, manicures or pedicures, or even, a shampooing task. Hence, the length of time it takes to get a degree in cosmetology is not as important as knowing how long it takes before one can become a licensed cosmetologist. How Long Does It Take to Become a Licensed Cosmetologist? Most state license boards require a minimum of 1,500 hours of education credits, and that would be equivalent to eighteen months."

Flag How long does it take to earn a bachelor's degree? Answer by Chellyllaw Confidence votes 159A bachelor's degree in most fields can require between 124 and 128 college credits particular to a specific program of study. This would be based on a college or university that operates on a regular two semester academic year, which is the most common. For institutions that operate on a tri-semester or quarter-semester it would be quite different. That being said, the Bachelor's degree - in most cases - is design to be a four year program of study, provided the student is full-time and follows their chosen program of study in the prescribed manner. The minimum full-time student registers for a credit load of no less than 12 credits per semester. However, to complete the degree within the four years, a credit load of approximately 15 to 18 credits is recommended. For individuals who work or who have other responsibilities that would prohibit them from attending full-time, completion of the degree may take twice as long. Still, some of this time can be cut down by attending summer sessions and/or interim sessions."

An Associate Degree - can be earned within 2 years taking about 60hours of course work. For this, you can even take CLEP exam to skip some of the course work and simply pass an exam instead. These exams can give you college credit that are acceptable to community college as well. If you want to take CLEP exams to get college credit, please talk to your college and find out if they do accept the CLEP scores and grant college credit for the same. As each college policy differs, it is best to talk to your college and know exactly what you could do to get the associate degree faster. A master's degree - is a graduate degree that also takes about 1.5 - 2.5 years, but you'll need a bachelor's degree first before you can get a master's."

"text": "An associate’s degree in psychology is a two-year degree can be pursued at community colleges or university and can be a good start for those interested in the field. Since the terminal degree in the field is the doctoral degree, most psychology jobs require a minimum of a bachelor’s degree, but there are some jobs that require a two-year associate’s degree in psychology. The associate can also be a good stepping-stone into pursuing a higher degree later, such as a bachelor’s degree or a master’s degree, which offer many more options for graduates. In psychology, several types of associate degrees are offered: Associate’s of Science in Psychology, Associate’s of Arts in Psychology, and Associate’s of Arts in Applied Psychology. Graduates of associate’s degrees in psychology who decide to enter the job market instead of pursuing a higher degree may look for jobs in supporting and administrative roles such as psychology technicians or aides or mental health associates. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), psychology technicians and aides earn a median salary of $28,670 per year. 1 Their job outlook is average, with about 5% growth expected between 2014 and 2024. 1Admission Requirements Schools with associate programs typically require a high school diploma or a GED for entry. Most programs require a minimum GPA (varies by school), and you may have to submit transcripts, letters of recommendation, and a statement of purpose to be admitted.

An associate degree is used to start your career or to segue into an undergraduate degree. Some students are able to transfer some or all of their credits from their associate degree to a Bachelor of Arts degree program, reducing the time it takes to finish their undergraduate education. To finish a B. A. after completing your associate degree, you need to apply to a four-year institution as a transfer student and then work with an academic adviser to determine what credits you have left to take in the program. Transfer Degree A general Associate of Arts degree is sometimes referred to as a \"\"transfer degree.\"\" Typically, the courses in an A. A. program are equivalent to the general education courses required by a B. A. program. Some colleges will automatically award credit for all general education courses in the B. A. program to transfer applicants who have completed an A. A. degree, regardless of the specific courses taken. For example, Columbia College in South Carolina and Baldwin Wallace University in Ohio both allow students who have completed an associate degree to transfer in and finish their bachelor's in only two years. Students admitted under such a transfer arrangement must only complete the courses in their major. Specialty Associate Degree If you completed an associate degree in a specific trade, such as automotive technology or emergency medicine, you may not have the needed general education credits in subjects like English or math."

Typically, you should consider one full year at one institution that operates on a unit system, is equivalent to one full year at another institution on a credit system. Thus, when converting units to credits it is more of an estimation than an absolute number. For example, if a bachelor's degree requires 120 credits, than a unit would be 3.33 credits. If the degree is 128 credits, then a unit would be 3.55 credits. Because of the confusion this presents, many colleges and universities just transfer in one unit as three credits.18 people found this useful Was this answer useful?

One of the first questions many students or prospective students ask when they learn about the two-year degree they can earn through practically all junior colleges and some traditional universities is, “How many credits are required for an associate degree?”This question crosses the mind of many students during the course their college career. While you earn your degree, your life may change dramatically. New obligations, different goals and new opportunities present themselves and often you have to act fast to take advantage of them. An associate degree allows you to do so. An associate degree is an undergraduate degree typically awarded after roughly two years of study by a full-time student. For most learning institutions, this typically represents roughly 60 credits. However, depending on your individual situation, receiving an associate degree can take more than two years or less. Why You May Want an Associate Degree An associate degree can help provide you with immediate access to the workforce in the field of your desired profession. In addition, the college-credit transfer process for your school may be more complicated than you initially thought or otherwise take longer than expected."

The human respiratory system is composed of the nasal passages, the pharynx, larynx, the trachea, bronchi, and the lungs. It is responsible for the process of respiration that is vital to the survival of living beings. Respiration is the process of obtaining and using oxygen, while eliminating carbon dioxide. It is the process by which human beings take in the oxygen from their environment and give out carbon dioxide that is produced as a result of chemical reactions within the cells. The human respiratory system is the specialized system that brings about this critical process in human beings. Let us look at its structure. The respiratory system in human beings can be divided into the upper respiratory tract that consists of nasal passages, pharynx, and larynx, and the lower respiratory tract that is composed of the trachea, the primary bronchi, and the lungs. This Buzzle article tells you about the human respiratory system structure with the help of diagrams. Nasal Cavity Air entering from the nostrils is led to the nasal passages."

Although morphine is still obtained from natural sources, there are now many chemical substances available with similar analgesic, sedative and mood-elevating effects. Most are synthetic although some are derived from morphine (codeine is methylmorphine and diamorphine is diacetylmorphine). The naturally occurring substances tend to be called opiates, and the synthetic agents opioids. Mechanism of action Endogenous opioids are substances that are naturally occurring in the body and help modulate the pain experience. Opioids work by binding to receptors found in the brain, spinal cord and other nervous tissue which are normally activated by endogenous enkephalins and endorphins. There is considerable debate over the nature of these, but there is general acceptance of the presence of μ, κ and δ receptors (pronounced mu, kappa and delta), and there may be subtypes of each category pcc1032. It has been suggested that μ receptors are responsible at supraspinal sites for analgesia, sedation and respiratory depression. κ receptors have been associated with analgesia produced at spinal sites. Some opioids (e.g. pentazocine) can produce disturbing effects including dysphoria, hypertonia, tachycardia, tachypnoea and mydriasis perhaps mediated by another opioid σ (sigma) receptor."

"text": "Respiration and Gaseous Exchange A respiratory organ consists of a surface across which gas exchange by diffusion can occur between blood and either water or air The surface must be� moist enough to allow the cells to live � large enough to permit sufficient gas exchange � thin enough to permit rapid diffusion In respiration � blood entering the respiratory organ must be high in CO 2 and low in O 2 � both gases must move into and out of the body tissues through diffusion � requires a functional connection between the respiratory and circulatory system � the external air/water medium must be frequently replenished The primary respiratory organs of vertebrates are gills and lungs, although the skin is sometimes used External cutaneous respiration is the ancestral form of respiration found in most protochordates During external respiration � gas exchange occurs at the level of the skin and oxygen and carbon dioxide are passed into and out of tissues � the process still occurs in small vertebrates as long as they have low activity levels and live in cool flowing water or in damp air - frogs meet about half of their needs for gas exchange through their skin Because most vertebrates are too large for each cell to interact directly with the environment, many organisms have evolved specialized organ systems to undertake the process of diffusion Generally, fishes use gills and tetrapods use lungs, although the distinction is not absolute Through ventilation of the organs of the respiratory system, gaseous exchange can occur Ventilation of respiratory structures depends on� ram ventilation - forward momentum contributes to flow of water across the gill membranes � dual pump - buccal and opercular action operating in tandem drives water in a nearly continuous unidirectional flow across the gill curtain between them - the suction phase begins with compressed buccal and opercular cavities and closed valves - as the buccal cavity expands, the internal oral valves open and water moves into the buccal cavity and across the gill curtain - during the force phase, the oral valve closes and water is forced out through the opercular valve � pulse pump - the dual pump is modified into an inhalation/exhalation phase - the exhalation phase begins with transfer of spent air from the lungs into the buccal cavity - the exhalation phase concludes with expulsion of air from the buccal cavity to the outside either through the mouth or under the operculum - the inhalation phase begins with the organism taking fresh air into the mouth - the inhalation phase concludes with transfer of air from the buccal cavity into the lungs � aspiration pump - air is sucked in, or aspirated, by low pressure created around the lungs - the lungs are located within the pump so that the force required to ventilate them is applied directly - a moveable diaphragm and rib cage cause pressure changes rather than the action of the buccal cavity Internal gills � develop from the pharynx as evaginations called pharyngeal pouches � visceral grooves opposite to the pharyngeal pouches are separated from the pharyngeal pouches by a thin layer of tissue called the closing plate - the closing plates rupture in the embryo to establish the communication between the gill chamber and the surrounding medium - tetrapods retain the first closing plate, which becomes the eardrum (tympanic membrane), while the remaining ones disappear � the pouches are also separated by the visceral arches, which combine to form the parabranchial gill chambers � the first visceral arch becomes the spiracle The general structure of a mature gill is composed of several parts: � gill rakers are cartilagenous or bony parts on the pharyngeal margin of the gill and function in preventing food particles from entering the gill chambers � gill rays are found within the interbranchial septa and provide support for the gill � gill filaments are the feather-like projections of the gills across which diffusion of gases occurs � gill filaments also possess gill lamellae, which are small crevices through which water passes for diffusion - lamellae are oriented parallel to the stream of water through the gills to maximize efficiency of diffusion - the blood flow through the gills opposes the flow of water through the lamellae (countercurrent flow) and maximizes the efficiency of diffusion - this is important because water has about 1/30th the oxygen concentration of air Three primary types of gill morphology are found in fishes: Holobranch - gill bar with anterior and posterior rows of gill filaments (jawed fishes) Hemibranch - gill bar with gill filaments found on either the posterior or anterior side (sharks) Pseudobranch - gill bar with posterior filaments modified to serve a nonrespiratory function such as sensory or salt balance - spiracular pseudobranch in rays and skates with much reduced hemibranch providing unobstructed flow of water for gill irrigation Gills can also be used in excretion of nitrogenous wastes (in the form of ammonia) and regulation of salts in the body There are three general variations in gills found in fishes: Pouched gills - Agnatha - have external and internal pores rather than gill slits - water is drawn into the gill chambers through the mouth and then passed over the gills Septal gills - Elasmobranchs - have gill slits rather than pores and gill septa that help support gill filaments - inspiration occurs through the mouth and expiration occurs through the gills - the exception is when the shark is feeding, when water moves into the pharynx through the spiracle Opercular gills - bony fishes - have no septa (aseptal) but gill bars anchor gill filaments - the operculum protects the filaments and expiration occurs through a single gill slit External gills � develop from the skin ectoderm of the branchial area but are not directly related to the visceral skeleton or branchial chambers � are found most often in larval or paedomorphic amphibians Swim bladders and the origin of lungs Lungs are found among fishes found in warm or stagnant water, as well as in primitive fishes, and allow for the fish to gulp air and undergo diffusion in an environment with relatively low dissolved oxygen Such fishes undergo long periods of breath-holding ( apnea) alternated with short periods of lung ventilation Swim bladders Swim bladders are similar to lungs, but are found in fishes that live in more oxygen-rich environments - thus, the air-filled spaces serve less of a purpose in respiration and function more as a hydrostatic organ� are connected to the pharynx by the pneumatic duct � make up approximately 4 - 11% of the body by volume � counters the increased density and sinking tendency from an ossified skeleton � gas is secreted into the swim bladder from blood by action of the gas glands or may be connected directly to the digestive tract via the pneumatic duct in primitive teleosts � air is added to the swim bladder to maintain its volume as fish dive and removed as the fish surfaces � gas glands may be associated with a countercurrent rete mirabile, which affects partial pressure and flow of oxygen into and out of the bladder Lungs and their ducts Tetrapod lungs are paired organs surrounded by pleura and contained in the pleural cavity� they have a higher surface to area volume ratio than the gills � are joined to the ventral side of the gut tube by the trachea � in general, any increase in overall body size leads to an increased amount of compartmentalization of the lungs During respiration � air enters through the mouth, or into the external nares to the choanae, and then passes into the pharynx � from there, air travels through the glottis to the trachea, and in the trachea splits into bronchi � the bronchi then lead to the lungs, which are themselves highly lobed � branching continues from the bronchi into bronchioles, then alveolar sacs, and end in alveoli - small sac-like structure within the lung where gas exchange occurs As in gills, the diffusion of oxygen and carbon dioxide is facilitated by counter-current flow in the alveoli � the lining of the lungs is lubricated by surfactant, a tension depressant � surfactants are generally lipoproteins and reduce the resistance to lung expansion as well as the energy needed to fill the lungs In the evolution of lungs from amphibians to mammals, several modifications to the respiratory structures are primarily associated with ventilation of the lungs � In amphibians, ventilation of the lungs occurs through external nares and choanae rather than the mouth - air is drawn into the pharynx by muscle contraction that lowers the pharynx floor � In reptiles, muscle action against the ribs helps to change internal air pressure, causing inspiration - the action is assisted by contraction of the diaphragmatic muscle, which is not the same thing as the diaphragm � In birds, the lungs are half the size of the lungs of a similarly-sized mammal - however, the lungs connect to a system of air sacs in the bones and abdominal cavity, which increases the capacity to 2 - 3 times that of a similarly-sized mammal - the result is to decrease overall body mass, but still maintain respiratory efficiency - conducting passages continue to subdivide into parabronchi, with one-way airflow through the lungs � The primary mammal modification is the formation of the diaphragm dividing the thoracic and abdominal cavity - movement of air into the lungs is facilitated by contraction of the diaphragm to change the pressure in the chest cavity. Vocalization in relation to respiration The larynx is the primary organ that functions in producing sounds � supported caudally by the cricoid cartilage, dorsally by the arytenoid cartilage, and by the addition of the thyroid cartilage in mammals � all support cartilages are derived from the visceral arches The vocal cords themselves are flaps of epithelium supported by cartilage - produce bursts of air that can be modified by the pharynx, lips"

Nasal Cavity The Nasal cavity is divided into three structurally and functionally different parts. The vestibules (the first ~1.5 cm of the conductive portion following the nostrils) are lined with a keratinised stratified squamous epithelium. Hairs, which filter large particulate matter out of the airstream, and sebaceous glands are also present. At the transition from the vestibule to the respiratory region of the nasal cavity the epithelium becomes first stratified squamous and then pseudostratified columnar and ciliated. This type of epithelium is characteristic for all conductive passages dedicated to the respiratory system and therefore also called respiratory epithelium. Mucus producing goblet cells are present in the epithelium. The surface of the lateral parts of the nasal cavity is thrown into folds by bony projections called conchae."

"text": "Evaluation and Management of Heart Murmurs in Children PDF PRINT COMMENTSSHAREJENNIFER E. FRANK, MD, and KATHRYN M. JACOBE, MD, University of Wisconsin Fox Valley Family Medicine Residency Program, Appleton, Wisconsin Am Fam Physician. 2011 Oct 1;84 (7):793-800. Heart murmurs are common in healthy infants, children, and adolescents. Although most are not pathologic, a murmur may be the sole manifestation of serious heart disease. Historical elements that suggest pathology include family history of sudden cardiac death or congenital heart disease, in utero exposure to certain medications or alcohol, maternal diabetes mellitus, history of rheumatic fever or Kawasaki disease, and certain genetic disorders. Physical examination should focus on vital signs; age-appropriate exercise capacity; respiratory or gastrointestinal manifestations of congestive heart failure; and a thorough cardiovascular examination, including features of the murmur, assessment of peripheral perfusion, and auscultation over the heart valves. Red flags that increase the likelihood of a pathologic murmur include a holosystolic or diastolic murmur, grade 3 or higher murmur, harsh quality, an abnormal S 2, maximal murmur intensity at the upper left sternal border, a systolic click, or increased intensity when the patient stands. Electrocardiography and chest radiography rarely assist in the diagnosis. Referral to a pediatric cardiologist is recommended for patients with any other abnormal physical examination findings, a history of conditions that increase the likelihood of structural heart disease, symptoms suggesting underlying cardiac disease, or when a specific innocent murmur cannot be identified by the family physician. Echocardiography provides a definitive diagnosis and is recommended for evaluation of any potentially pathologic murmur, and for evaluation of neonatal heart murmurs because these are more likely to be manifestations of structural heart disease."

A sufficient supply of oxygen is required for the aerobic respiratory machinery of Kreb's Cycle and the Electron Transport System to efficiently convert stored organic energy into energy trapped in ATP. Carbon dioxide is also generated by cellular metabolism and must be removed from the cell. There must be an exchange of gases: carbon dioxide leaving the cell, oxygen entering.

Bodies and Respiration | Back to Top Single-celled organisms exchange gases directly across their cell membrane.

Cor pulmonalecan be acute or chronic.▪In acute cor pulmonale the afterload to the right ventricle can rise in a matter of minutes (e.g., massive pulmonary embolism) giving very little room for compensation. The result will be acute right ventricular dilatation and failure, its severity depending primarily on the degree of acute PA hypertension.▪In chronic cor pulmonale, an increase of right ventricular afterload in the face of slowly developing PA hypertension (e.g., hypoxemia in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [COPD]) generates a compensatory response of the right ventricle (see later) that will preserve the stroke volume until either the afterload increases excessively or the myocardium fails because of ischemia or other pathologic condition. Read full chapter Cor Pulmonale John M. Taylor MD, in Critical Care Secrets (Fourth Edition), 20079What are the electrocardiography (ECG) criteria of right ventricular hypertrophy? Cor pulmonalemay result in loss of R waves in leads V 1–3 and/or inferior Q waves with right axis deviation. The following are ECG findings that mimic myocardial infarction either by simulating pathologic Q or QS waves or mimicking the typical ST-T changes of acute myocardial infarction:▪Right axis deviation or rightward shift in axis▪Right atrial enlargement: An increase in the R atrial potential typically translates into a large P wave, P pulmonale, in the inferior and anterior leads. P pulmonale is present in about 20% of patients with clinical evidence of cor pulmonale. COPD can give rise to P pulmonale without evidence of right ventricular hypertrophy.▪Right ventricular hypertrophy: The sensitivity of the ECG in diagnosing right ventricular hypertrophy in patients with chronic cor pulmonale is 60–70% when assessed at autopsy.▪Right bundle-branch block▪Right precordial T-wave inversions▪Delayed intrinsicoid deflection of right precordial leads▪S 1 Q 3 T 3 pattern▪QR pattern in lead V 1 or V 3 R▪An R wave in V 1 or V 3 R▪An R/S ratio > 1 in V 1 or < 1 in V 5 or V 6▪An R′ in V 1 or V 3 R > 6 mm or an R′ in V 1 > 1.0 (QRS duration < 0.10 second)Yanowitz FG: Ventricular hypertrophy.

"text": "Definition of Assonance Assonance is the repetition of a vowel sound or diphthong in non-rhyming words. To qualify as assonance, the words must be close enough for the repetition of the sound to be noticeable. Assonance is a common literary technique used in poetry and prose, and is widely found in English verse . Difference Between Assonance, Consonance, and Alliteration, and Slant Rhyme The techniques of assonance, alliteration, consonance, sibilance, and slant rhyme are all closely related and include the repetition of certain sounds in quick succession. Consonance: Literary consonance is the repetition of the same consonant sounds. Like assonance, the repetition must be close enough to register in the ear of the listener. The repetition can happen anywhere in the words. Since the definition of assonance only includes vowel sounds, assonance and consonance can be understood to describe the same phenomena, yet with opposite meanings (an easy way to remember which one is which is that the word “assonance” starts with a vowel and the word “consonance” starts with a consonant). One such example of consonance is the “l” sound from Mary Oliver’s poem “Wild Geese”: “You on l y have to l et the soft anima l of your body / l ove what it l oves. ”Alliteration: Alliteration is a special case of consonance and refers to the repetition of consonant sounds or blends at the beginning of words or in the stressed syllables of a line."

"text": "Rap Genius University: Rhyme Types By: Dan Berger41,659Rap is like poetry, except good. So the Rap Genius University series is our effort to teach you some stuff that you zoned out for during that English class where the poems were about Nature, Love, and Regret instead of Money, Cash, and Hoes. First topic – Rhyme Types. Perfect Rhyme A perfect rhyme is one in which the endings of words sound exactly the same. Perfect rhyme is the most basic kind, and was the dominant form of rhyme in the early days of rap. Now it is one of a variety of rhyme types, but is still widely used because of the strong connection it creates in lyrics, as in this verse from T. I.’s “Rubberband Man”: Tote a hundred gr and Cannon in the waistb and Assonance In assonance, words don’t have the same ending, but they share a vowel sound. The consonants surrounding the vowel sound are different, but the shared vowel sound links the words. Assonance is the most common form of rhyme in rap today because its looseness opens up many rhyming possibilities. Here’s some assonance from Jay-Z on “A Star is Born” – notice how the rhymes at the end of the lines are imperfect but work because of the shared vowel sound of “ay”: Wu-Tang gangbanged, Meth ate Rae’ took on the date with the Purple Tape Passed on to Ason and then Ghost face Bending Words Bending words are a variant on assonance, in which a rapper “bends” a word (pronounces it in an odd way) to create a shared vowel sound between two words that, when pronounced normally, have similar – but slightly different – vowel sounds. This is a common technique among southern rappers, who naturally pronounce words in a way that sounds “odd” to the Northern ear."

"text": "\"SOUND EFFECTS AND THE POETIC LINEMy original intention was to create a page on assonance, consonance, and alliteration, and I still intend to, but there are considerations about sound effects in poetry that come before those specialized ways of organizing sounds. In all languages, spoken or written, the sond of the individual words, and the rhythm of the words used together have an effect upon how the reader or hearer responds. In poetry, however, sound provides a major part of the meaning. How do sounds mean? That is too complex a matter to be explained fully here, but part of what we mean may be shown by comparing poetry to popular songs. Sometimes a comedian will take the lyrics of a popular song and simply read them aloud like prose. The result is absurd, something close to gibberish. What is the point? That popular songs are silly and absurd? Probably, but the point is not valid."

Figures of speech such as metaphors, similes, and allusions go beyond the literal meanings of the words to give readers new insights. On the other hand, alliterations, imageries, or onomatopoeias are figurative devices that appeal to the senses of the readers. Figurative language can appear in multiple forms with the use of different literary and rhetorical devices. According to Merriam Webster’s Encyclopedia, figurative language has five different forms: Understatement or Emphasis Relationship or Resemblance Figures of Sound Errors and Verbal Games Types of Figurative Language The term figurative language covers a wide range of literary devices and techniques, a few of which include: Simile Metaphor Personification Onomatopoeia Oxymoron Hyperbole Allusion Idiom Imagery Symbolism Alliteration Assonance Consonance Metonymy Synecdoche Irony Sarcasm Litotes Pun Anaphora Tautology Understatement Short Examples of Figurative Language Similes His friend is as black as coal.

The main difference between Assonance and Consonance is that Assonance is the repetition of vowel sounds in words that are closely found while Consonance is the repetition of the same consonants or the same consonant pattern in short succession. What is Assonance Assonance is the repetition of a vowel sound in a phrase or a sentence. Assonance is used to create internal rhythm within a sentence or a phrase. Assonance can be noticed in words that start with consonants. For example, look at the sentence below. He l o cked the b o x with the r o cks. All three words locked, box and rock repeat the same vowel sound –o. Each of these words contains the same vowel sound, but they start with different consonant sounds. Keep in mind that it is the vowel sound that create assonance, not the letter.

"text": "Repetition Definition & Examples I. What is Repetition? Quite simply, repetition is the repeating of a word or phrase. It is a common rhetorical device used to add emphasis and stress in writing and speech. Repetition is widely used in both poetry and prose; throughout all genres and forms of literature and oral tradition. Aside from helping stress or highlight important thoughts and points, repetition can be a key tool for authors and speakers in developing style, tone, and rhythm. II. Example of Repetition Read the short passage below: The big stairs led up to a big house with a big front door. Breathe, breathe, breathe, I told myself. I only have to stay for one second, be afraid for one second, not scream for one second. I can do it."

Since it does nothing that good old use doesn’t do, its extra letters and syllables don’t make a writer seem smarter; rather, using utilize makes you seem either like a pompous twit or like someone so insecure that she’ll use pointlessly big words in an attempt to look sophisticated. The same is true for the noun utilization, for vehicle as used for car, for residence as used for house, for presently, at present, at this time, and at the present time as used for now, and so on. What’s worth remembering about puff-words is something that good writing teachers spend a lot of time drumming into undergrads: “formal writing” does not mean gratuitously fancy writing; it means clean, clear, maximally considerate writing. Pulchritude A paradoxical noun because it refers to a kind of beauty but is itself one of the ugliest words in the language. Same goes for the adj. form pulchritudinous. They’re part of a tiny elite cadre of words that possess the opposite of the qualities they denote. Diminutive, big, foreign, fancy (adj. ), classy, colloquialism, and monosyllabic are some others; there are at least a dozen more."

"text": "\"Many examples of assonance can be found in prose and poetry. Assonance is the repetition of vowel sounds in nearby words. It is used to reinforce the meanings of words or to set the mood. Setting the Mood with Assonance In this example by Carl Sandburg, in Early Moon, the long “o” sounds old or mysterious. “Poetry is old, ancient, goes back far. It is among the oldest of living things. So old it is that no man knows how and why the first poems came. ”Assonance examples are sometimes hard to find, because they work subconsciously sometimes, and are subtle. The long vowel sounds will slow down the energy and make the mood more somber, while high sounds can increase the energy level of the piece. Notice how the mood is set by using the long “A” in this excerpt from Cormac Mc Carthy's book, Outer Dark:“And stepping softly with her air of blooded ruin about the glade in a frail agony of grace she trailed her rags through dust and ashes, circling the dead fire, the charred billets and chalk bones, the little calcined ribcage."

"text": "What is Assonance? February 11, 2011 , cherran , Leave a comment What is Assonance? Assonance refers to the effect when the sound of a vowel is repeated in the same sentence using words that are placed close to each other. Assonance is commonly used in poetry to add emphasis on a particular subject or simply to add flare. The English language has more than enough rules in terms of usage and/or grammar. English poetry is not an easy thing to handle either. To understand assonance better, one must learn the other terms related to it. First there is “alliteration” – this refers to repetition of a sound in poetry, prose, or basic text. The purpose for repeating the sounds is to add more rhythm to the sentences. Either the consonant or the vowel is repeated in alliterations."

"text": "\"Home »Family Law The Definition of Assignment & Assumption Agreement By Maggie Lourdes; Updated June 01, 2017An assignment and assumption agreement transfers one party's rights and obligations under a contract to another party. The party transferring her rights and duties is the assignor; the party receiving them is the assignee. Sometimes, an assignor is not completely relieved of liability even after she assigns a contract. Parties must look to a contract's specific language to determine applicable restrictions, terms and conditions for assignments and assumptions. Assignment and Assumption An assignment and assumption is a separate document from the contract it transfers. For example, George leases his house to Cindy for one year. The lease states that she may assign it with George's approval. George consents to Ralph assuming the lease. Cindy and Ralph must draft and sign an assignment and assumption as assignee and assignor. Lenders sometimes allow original borrowers to assign outstanding loan debt to creditworthy third parties."

Number of Single Spaced Pages: 12Excerpt A Look At Office Lease Definitions This LARG focuses upon an assortment of the definitions commonly found in office leases. The clauses are followed by comment. In addition, the particular definitions are characterized (at the end of each definition) as pro-landlord, pro-tenant, or neutral, respectively, by the designations (LL), (T) and (N). The clauses that follow were taken from several sources, and, as a result, they may not be entirely consistent in terminology. Many of the clauses that follow come from \"\"caption\"\" format leases, i.e., leases that contain a cover page specifying the fundamental deal points, such as the names of the parties, the rent, the length of the term, the amount of prorata share for operating expenses, and so forth. Accordingly, some clauses contain references to those items that are part of the business deal. A Look At Office Lease Definitions--The Large Print Giveth And The Small Print Taketh Away The practice of including a separate section of the lease containing fundamental definitions has become widespread. The impetus for doing so probably resulted from a desire to improve overall drafting of the leases themselves, since, if a separate definitions section is used, the body of the lease can focus upon the agreements of the parties without the need for lengthy and complicated definitions. It certainly satisfies that objective."

AIG Commercial Umbrella Liability Policy Crisis Response Coverage Summary: This article presents a description and an analysis of a commercial umbrella liability policy developed by American International Group (AIG). The policy has an edition date of July 2002 and contains an AIG specialty named Crisis Response. Topics covered: Insuring agreement IInsuring agreement IIDefense provisions Limits of insurance Exclusions Conditions Definitions Insuring Agreement IThis insuring agreement commits the insurer to pay on behalf of the insured those sums in excess of the retained limit (a defined term) that the insured becomes legally obligated to pay as damages by reason of liability imposed by law. This pertains to bodily injury (BI), property damage (PD), or personal injury (PI) and advertising injury (AI) to which the umbrella insurance applies, or to bodily injury or property damage to which the insurance applies assumed by the insured under an insured contract (a defined term). For this insurance to be applicable, the bodily injury or property damage has to be caused by an occurrence that takes place anywhere and occurs during the policy period. The same is true for personal injury and advertising injury coverage. So, the policy is an occurrence type policy. This insuring agreement also contains the known loss language which prohibits coverage if the BI, PD, PI, or AI occurs prior to the policy period and is known to have occurred by the insured. If the insurer is prevented by law or statute from paying damages covered by this umbrella policy, the insurer agrees to indemnify the insured for those sums in excess of the retained limit."

"text": "\"Debunked: \"\"kaizen = Japanese philosophy of continuous improvement\"\"Submitted by Traveler on Mon, 2009-03-09 11:41One of the most beloved Japanology memes overseas involves the word kaizen (or Kaizen to some). Here's the definition from the New Oxford American Dictionary:kaizen |ˈkaɪzən| noun: a Japanese business philosophy of continuous improvement of working practices, personal efficiency, etc. That sometimes gets further embellished by eager writers who extend kaizen to carry continuous improvement out of the business realm, and \"\"throughout all aspects of life\"\", per one definition I've seen. Whatever the specifics, what you'll find in common across all definitions is that kaizen is a Japanese word for \"\"a Japanese philosophy of continuous improvement\"\". Unfortunately, that's wrong. What's it really mean? Jump down to \"\"The wrap\"\" at the end of this article if you want the quick low-down. Otherwise, here's the full story, starting with the real meaning of the Japanese word kaizen from the Shogakukan Dictionary:かい‐ぜん【改善】〘名〙悪いところを改めてよくすること。Direct translation:kaizen (改善) noun: The act of making bad points better. My literal translation is a wee clumsy; warui tokoro (\"\"bad points/areas\"\") could be more neatly translated as \"\"defects\"\" or \"\"flaws\"\". In any case, dictionaries from Sanseido and Oubunsha, as well as the massive and authoritative Koujien, give an identical definition, which points to a one-word, spot-on English translation: \"\"improvement\"\"."

Let’s walk through it piece by piece:lujpu’ is a verb, meaning “he/she/it/they failed” or “he/she/it/they lost (a game)”. The root verb is luj, and the -pu’ is a suffix indicating that the action described by the verb is completed (perfective). Klingon verb indicate the person and number of their subjects and objects via prefixes; the lack of a prefix indicates that the subject is third person, and may be either singular or plural.j IH can be either a noun meaning “viewscreen” or “monitor”, or the pronoun “I”. Given that the immediately preceding verb has a third-person subject, and Klingon places the subject immediately after the verb, it’s much more reasonable to assume the former meaning rather than the latter. Daq can be either the verb “to eavesdrop”, or a noun meaning “site” or “place”. Klingon places objects before verbs, and since the following word is a verb with a third-person object, it’s reasonable to assume the nominal meaning.legh is the verb “to see”, with either a singular third person subject and singular or plural third person object, or a plural third person subject and plural third person object.ghlee is not a valid word in standard Klingon (which doesn’t allow the sequence ghl- at the beginning of a word, or pairs of vowels without an intervening consonant), but it could be a foreign name or spelling error. Lastly, the initial <L> of lujpu’ should not be capitalized, but that’s likely an error on the part of the person asking the question. If we assume that the sequence given in the question ( Lujpu' j IH Daq legh ghlee.) is in fact two sentences, with a hypothetical period between j IH and Daq, it would mean something like:“The viewscreen failed."

"text": "Important Accounting Changes Purchase Price Allocation IIEquity Purchase Price The first step in purchase price allocation, or PPA, is to determine the purchase price. Also known as the transaction price/value, this is the price paid for the equity of a company and is calculated as shown to the right. Acquisition-Related Costs Acquisition-related costs are costs the acquirer incurs to effect a business combination. Those costs include finder’s fees; advisory, legal, accounting, valuation, and other professional or consulting fees; general administrative costs; and costs of registering and issuing debt and equity securities. No acquisition-related costs are included in the purchase price after January 1, 2009, in accordance with FAS 141r. With the exception of costs to issue debt or equity, FAS 141 and FAS 141r differ substantially: FAS 141 – Include in purchase price FAS 141r – Do not include in purchase price; expense as incurred Under both FAS 141r and FAS 141, debt and equity issuance fees are treated differently from other acquisition-related costs as follows: Deb t – Financing fees capitalized and amortized over cost of the term of the debt Equity – Fees netted against proceeds from the offering After December 15, 2008, acquisition-related costs are no longer included in the purchase price. Instead, the acquirer expenses these charges as incurred and the services received, while debt and equity financing fees continue to receive the same accounting treatment described above. Restructuring costs are not considered part of the purchase price under both FAS 141 and 141r. Compensation for Past Services Payments to Target's employees for services performed in the past which have no future benefit are added to the purchase price because they are considered assumed liabilities. Examples include severance payments to Target's former managers and stock options that vest upon a change of control."

[ v t e]A plutoid or ice dwarf is a trans-Neptunian dwarf planet, i.e. a body orbiting beyond Neptune that is massive enough to be rounded in shape. The term plutoid was adopted by the International Astronomical Union (IAU) working group Committee on Small Bodies Nomenclature, but was rejected by the IAU working group Planetary System Nomenclature. [ 1] The term plutoid is not widely used by astronomers, though ice dwarf is not uncommon. There are thought to be thousands of plutoids in the Solar System, although only four have been formally designated as such by the IAU. The IAU developed this category of astronomical objects as a consequence of its 2006 resolution defining the word \"\"planet\"\". The IAU's formal definition of \"\"plutoid\"\", announced 11 June 2008, is: Plutoids are celestial bodies in orbit around the Sun at a semi-major axis greater than that of Neptune that have sufficient mass for their self-gravity to overcome rigid body forces so that they assume a hydrostatic equilibrium (near-spherical) shape, and that have not cleared the neighbourhood around their orbit. Satellites of plutoids are not plutoids themselves. ["

"text": "\"GEOGRAPHICAL NAMESPROTOPLASM, the name given in modern biology to a substance composing, wholly or in part, all living cells, tissues or organisms of any kind, and hence regarded as the primary living substance, the physical and material basis of life. The term \"\"protoplasma,\"\" from irpcirros, first, and ir Xiivµa, formed substance, was coined by the botanist Hugo von Mohl, in 1846, for the \"\"tough, slimy, granular, semi-fluid\"\" constituent of plant cells, which he distinguished from the cellwall, nucleus and cell-sap. This was not, however, the first recognition of the true living substance as such, since this step had been achieved in 1835 by the French naturalist F. Dujardin, who in his studies on Foraminifera had proposed the term \"\" sarcode\"\" for the living material of their bodies in the following words: \"\"Je propose de nommer ainsi ce que d'autres observateurs ont appele une gelee vivante, cette substance glutineuse, diaphane, insoluble dans l'eau, se contractant en masses globuleuses, s'attachant aux aiguilles de dissection, et se laissant etirer comme du mucus, enfin se trouvant dans tous les animaux inferieurs interposee aux autres elements de structure.\"\" To the French naturalist belongs, therefore, the real credit of the discovery of protoplasm, or rather, to be more accurate, of the first recognition of its true nature as the material basis of vital phenomena. Neither Dujardin nor von Mohl, however, had any conception of the universal occurrence and fundamental similarity of protoplasm in all living things, whether animal or vegetable, and it was not till 1861 that the identity of animal sarcode and vegetable protoplasm was proclaimed by Max Schultze, whose name stands out as the framer, if not the founder, of the modern notions concerning the nature of the living substance. From this time onwards the term \"\"protoplasm\"\" was used for the living substance of all classes of organisms, although it would have been more in accordance with the custom of priority in nomenclature to have made use of Dujardin's term \"\"sarcode.\"\" A living organism, of any kind whatsoever, may be regarded as composed of (I) protoplasm, (2) substances or structures produced by the protoplasm, either by differentiation or modification of the protoplasm itself, or by the excretory or secretory activity of the living substance. The protoplasm of a given organism may be in a single individual mass, or may be aggregated into a number of masses or units, discontinuous but not disconnected, termed cells (see Cytology). Thus living organisms may be distinguished, in a general way, as unicellular or multicellular. An instance of a unicellular organism is well seen in an Amoeba, or in one of the Foraminifera, classic examples for the study of undifferentiated protoplasm, which here composes the greater part of the body, while products of the formative activity of the protoplasm are seen in the external shell and in various internal granules and structures."

This was relatively easy assuming identity, but isn't so clear without identity. My questions,then, are: Can this be solved without assuming identity? The proof that maximal ideals are prime requires identity. It states that if R is a commutative ring with identity and I is a maximal ideal, then R / I is a field, and thus an integral domain. Therefore, I is a prime ideal. Does something similar apply to commutative rings without identity? Are maximal ideals necessarily prime in such rings?

Also known as Sachiel, Zedekiel, Zadakiel, Tzadkiel, Zedekul and Hesediel. Rabbinical tradition considers him to be the angel of mercy. In rabbinic writings Zadkiel belongs to the order of Hashmallim, and considered by some sources to be chief of that order. In Maseket Azilut Zadkiel/Hesediel is listed as co-chief with Gabriel of the order of Shinanim. As an angel of mercy, some texts claim that Zadkiel is the unnamed Biblical Angel of the Lord who holds back Abraham to prevent the patriarch from sacrificing his son, and because of this is usually shown holding a dagger. Other texts cite Michael or Tadhiel or some other angel as the angel intended, while others interpret the Angel of the Lord as a theophany. Zadkiel is one of two standard bearers who follow directly behind Michael as the head archangel enters battle. Zadkiel is associated with the color violet. In Jewish mysticism and Western ritual magic, Zadkiel is associated with the planet Jupiter."

"text": "Jarosław Bogalecki Answered Nov 3, 2017 · Author has 323 answers and 150.3k answer views Ever since the loss of the art of reading the sacred Egyptian writing, it was widely assumed that Egyptian hieroglyphs were symbolic in nature. Some compared them to Classical Chinese—a script which did not reflect the way ordinary people spoke but conveyed a very specific message. Most of the suggestions that it could have been at least partially phonetic were usually dismissed as nonsensical and you can definitely see a point there. Would you assume that a script composed of pictures resembling people and animals legitimately represents pronunciation? Antoine-Isaac Silvestre de Sacy—the man who not only came up with the theory of some of the hieroglyphs being phonetic but actually taught three of the men who would later prove essential to cracking the ancient code. In the early 1800s, shortly after the monumental discovery of the famed stone bearing a bilingual and triscriptual inscription in 1799 by an officer in the French garrison at the Egyptian town of Rosetta, some of these established ideas began being questioned. The Frenchman Antoine-Isaac Silvestre de Sacy and his Swedish student Johan David Åkerblad noticed that some portions of the Demotic text seemed to correspond in their frequency and placement to those in the Greek version. Thus they were able to come up with translations of a few Egyptian words in the Demotic which by now was beginning to be recognized as just another rendition of the hieroglyphic text rather than that of a completely unrelated language. However, the Demotic text also included some ideograms and overall proved too hard a crack for de Sacy and Åkerblad. The two men, having grown frustrated with the unrewarding nature of the decipherement challenge, gave up."

Now most developers can't hear the word without seeing angle brackets. SOAP originally stood for \"\"Simple Object Access Protocol\"\". If you had asked anyone what SOAP meant several years ago, they would have probably said something like \"\"it's for making DCOM and Corba (e.g., RPC calls) work over the Internet\"\". The original authors admit they were focused on \"\"accessing objects\"\" back then, but over time it became desirable for SOAP to serve a much broader audience. Hence, the focus of the specification quickly moved away from objects towards a generalized XML messaging framework. The shift in focus creates a slight problem with the \"\"O\"\" in the SOAP acronym. Interestingly, the SOAP 1.2 Working Group has (so far) kept the SOAP name (it's so popular, how could they not?)"

"text": "\"United States: Reinsurance Arbitration Clauses – Where The Courts Find Problems Last Updated: August 20 2008 Article by Larry Schiffer Dewey & Le Boeuf LLPThe author gratefully acknowledges and thanks Marissa J. Savit, an attorney at Dewey & Le Boeuf LLP, for her research and initial drafting of this article. This article was presented at the American Bar Association's Annual Meeting on August 9, 2008, at a program entitled \"\"Building a Better ADR Clause: An Inter-Disciplinary Approach,\"\" sponsored by the Excess, Surplus Lines & Reinsurance Committee of the Tort, Trial & Insurance Practice Section, which was co-chaired by the author. Introduction One way to improve the alternative dispute resolution process is to examine the disputes about alternative dispute resolution clauses that find their way into court. Typically, a court proceeding over the interpretation of a provision in an alternative dispute resolution clause arises because of some ambiguity or lack of clarity in the clause that the parties now need the court to sort out. Those provisions that routinely result in court proceedings may be candidates for modification. This paper will focus on arbitration clauses in reinsurance agreements. The paper will examine some of the types of disputes over reinsurance arbitration clauses that find their way into court in an attempt to identify provisions that may be in need of amendment. By analogy, similar clauses in other commercial contracts may be in need of modification as well. Reinsurance Arbitration Provisions With Ambiguous Scope Because arbitration is a creature of contract 1 , parties to a reinsurance agreement are free to contract for the scope of issues that they will submit to arbitration should there be a dispute in the future. Difficulties arise, however, when the parties' intentions regarding the scope arbitration are not clearly expressed in the reinsurance agreement."

No Thanks Download FREE Report The Late Notice Defense in Reinsurance—Updated In our September 2002 commentary, Late Notice in Reinsurance Claims: Does Prejudice Matter?, we discussed how different states react to the reinsurer's defense to payment under a reinsurance contract based on the reinsured's failure to promptly notify the reinsurer of the underlying claim. Some states equate late notice on a direct basis with reinsurance and some states do not. Some states require a showing of prejudice and some do not. Larry Schiffer Reinsurance June 2005Since that time, a number of new court decisions have been handed down on late notice. We begin with recent case law in New York on the direct side, and then move to some new late notice cases in the reinsurance context. The divergence among the states has not cleared up, but reinsureds and reinsurers now have a little more guidance on the use of the late notice defense. As mentioned in the 2002 commentary, good faith compliance with notice provisions in reinsurance agreements will avoid opening the door to a late notice defense in the first place. The New York Court of Appeals Speaks In two recent decisions decided on the same April day this year, New York’s highest appellate court, the New York Court of Appeals, addressed the defense of late notice by a primary insurer against its insured."

"text": "« Advisor Insights What is reinsurance? Share Insurance Answers Sort By: Most Helpful October 2008+ Follow Investopedia New York, NYwww.investopedia.com88 % of people found this answer helpful Reinsurance occurs when multiple insurance companies share risk by purchasing insurance policies from other insurers to limit the total loss the original insurer would experience in case of disaster. By spreading risk, an individual insurance company can take on clients whose coverage would be too great of a burden for the single insurance company to handle alone. When reinsurance occurs, the premium paid by the insured is typically shared by all of the insurance companies involved. Reinsurance can help a company by providing: Risk Transfer - Companies can share or transfer of specific risks with other companies Arbitrage - Additional profits can be garnered by purchasing insurance elsewhere for less than the premium the company collects from policyholders. Capital Management - Companies can avoid having to absorb large losses by passing risk; this frees up additional capital. Solvency Margins - The purchase of surplus relief insurance allows companies to accept new clients and avoid the need to raise additional capital. Expertise - The expertise of another insurer can help a company obtain a proper rating and premium.

"text": "\"Understanding aviation insurance in business and private aviation Article May 2011When buying or leasing a business or private aircraft, there are many issues to take into consideration - the range of the aircraft, the price, the model, whether or not it will be chartered, which registry it will be flown under, whether or not finance is required. One of the most important aspects of buying or owning an aircraft is the insurance policy and yet many owners (and even some financiers) are not aware of the basic contents or restrictions contained in the insurance policy. It is a little too late to find out after the aircraft has been damaged that your policy isn’t quite as you expected it to be. This note sets out a basic explanation of some standard areas of cover in aviation insurance and then examines some market practices and their effect on insurance. Types of aviation insurance1. Aircraft Hull and Liability There are several standard aircraft liability policies in the London market, but for the purposes of keeping it simple, I will focus primarily on AVN1C, which is the London Aircraft Insurance Policy. This policy is mainly used for general aviation business, as opposed to major airlines, which obviously require wider coverage than is provided by this standard form. It covers both the hull risks and the insured’s liability to third parties and passengers. There are four main sections to AVN1C: Section I: Loss of or damage to aircraft Section II: Legal liability to third parties (other than passengers)Section III: Legal liability to passengers Section IV: General exclusions applicable to all sections Conditions precedent applicable to all sections General conditions applicable to all sections Definitions Section I - Loss of or damage to aircraft: Insurers will pay for, replace or repair accidental loss of or damage to the aircraft described in the schedule under the policy for the risks covered (generally being flight, taxiing and ground risks). It would be common for aircraft policies to have a separate premium rate for flight risks and a reduced premium rate for ground risks."

"text": "\"Reinsurance FAQWhat is Reinsurance? Reinsurance is the transfer of insurance risk (and associated insurance premiums) from one insurance company to another insurance company. The company that receives (or \"\"assumes\"\") the insurance risk (and associated reinsurance premiums) is called the \"\"Reinsurance Company\"\" and the company that transfers (or \"\"cedes\"\") the risk (and associated premium) is called the \"\"ceding company\"\". How much risk does the Reinsurance Company have? This depends upon the agreement between the Insurance Company and the Reinsurance Company. And even though it might seem like the Reinsurance Company should take as little risk as possible, this would mean that they (i.e. the Reinsurance Company) would get as little of the associated premiums as possible. If the Reinsurance Company has determined that the business is (or should be) profitable, then it would be in the Reinsurance Company's best interest to \"\"assume\"\" as much risk and associated premiums as possible at the least cost (or \"\"Ceding Fee\"\"). What is the cost of Reinsurance? The cost of reinsurance varies greatly, and it is based upon industry standards and the product and or products being reinsured. The cost of Reinsurance is described as a \"\"Ceding Fee\"\" or \"\"Ceding Allowance\"\", and consists of the payment from the Reinsurance Company to the Insurance Company as compensation for \"\"assuming\"\" the risk (and associated premiums)."

( April 2012) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)Gross premiums written is the sum of both direct premiums written and assumed premiums written before the effect of ceded reinsurance. Direct premiums written represents the premiums on all policies the Company’s insurance subsidiaries have issued during the year. Assumed premiums written represents the premiums that the insurance subsidiaries have received from an authorized state-mandated pool or under previous fronting facilities. ( From EIG 8-K filed Nov 14, 2007)When a non-life insurance company closes a contract to provide insurance against loss, the revenues (premiums) expected to be received over the life of the contract are called gross premiums written. Insurance companies often purchase reinsurance to protect themselves against the risk of a loss above a certain threshold; the cost of reinsurance (reinsurance premiums) is deducted from gross premiums written to arrive at net premiums written. Net premiums written is the sum of all types of insurance premiums which a company may collect throughout the whole duration of existing insurance policies minus the costs like agent's commissions or payments made for reinsurance. Net Premiums Written [ edit]Net premiums written is gross written premium (direct written premium plus assumed written premium) less ceded written premium .

Full Answer In a divorce where one spouse is awarded the house a deed of trust to secure assumption is one of two real estate transfer documents used, according to Morgan Law Firm. The person taking the house signs this document, and it effectively says he promises to pay the existing mortgage. If he falls behind or defaults on payments this document gives the other person recourse against him. In some states payment on a home loan is secured with a deed of trust rather than a mortgage, notes Legalzoom."

"text": "Foreclosure Terminology Glossary Learn the words mortgage lenders, investors, Realty Trac, and foreclosure and real estate professionals use. Definitions Assignment of Deed of Trust or Mortgage : Assumption by a purchaser of liability for payment of an existing mortgage, or deed of trust. May or may not be accompanied by a release of liability of the original borrower. Awaiting Update : A term Realty Trac uses to let consumers know a property is in a transition period between foreclosure filings (NOD/LIS to NTS/NFS and NTS/NFS to REO). Once Realty Trac receives an update with the latest foreclosure status, the information is updated on the website. Bankruptcy : A legal proceeding which allows a debtor to discharge certain debts or obligations or allows the debtor time to reorganize his/her financial affairs so he/she can fully pay the debt. Bankruptcy does not discharge obligations secured by an assessment lien. Declaration of Default : a document instructing the trustee (usually appointed by a bank) to prepare and record a Notice of Default (NOD), and if necessary, to sell the property at auction in order to satisfy the unpaid obligation or lien. Deed of Trust : A legal document in which the borrower conveys the title to a 3rd party (trustee) to hold as security for the lender. When the loan is paid in full the trustee reconveys the deed to the borrower."

Full Answer If the deed of assignment transfers a debt instrument, such as a mortgage, it shows the new holder of that debt, and that person or entity becomes the recipient of the mortgage payments. There are many types of deeds, which are documents that demonstrate the ownership of a particular legal interest in real property, and frequently the deed of assignment contains other legal language that may prove important, such as references to a deed of trust or an assignment of rents. A short visit to a real estate attorney may be necessary to interpret these documents. As with all significant transactions, before executing or accepting any documents in which an interest in real property is passed from one party to another, both parties need to make sure that the document conveys what they want it to convey."

Filing a quitclaim deed is a right of any property owner. You can file a quitclaim deed without refinancing your mortgage, but you are still responsible for the payments. Transferring the mortgage without refinancing is possible through an assumption of the loan, which requires lender approval. Record the Quitclaim Deed The quitclaim deed relinquishes some or all ownership rights from an existing owner to a new owner. Quitclaims are usually used between spouses or family members as property is gifted, consolidated or otherwise divided without selling it. The quitclaim deed itself is a simple form recorded at the county assessor's office. It contains all description information of the property, including parcel number, physical description and legal address."

In other states, a Bond for Deed is called a Contract for Deed or a Land Contract. These agreements are often used for Louisiana homes that are otherwise difficult to sell or finance. Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available. Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML5 video.0:00 / 1:49What is a Bond for Deed Contract? A Bond for Deed (BFD) is defined as a contractual agreement to sell real property in which the purchase price is to be paid by the buyer to the seller in installments, and in which the seller agrees to deliver title to the buyer after payment of a stipulated sum. This process is very similar to what some other states call a conditional sale or land contract. Another way to explain the process is that the seller finances the purchase but ultimately transfers title after all payments have been made on it, holding the BFD contract as a lien against the property. Bond for Deed Form Summary of seller benefits For sellers, the benefits include getting a better price for the property than an appraiser might estimate, gaining the ability to sell property in poor physical condition to a buyer willing to improve it, and the safety of knowing that the property’s title will not officially transfer until all payments have been made. Summary of buyer benefits There are benefits to the buyer of using a Bond For Deed transaction."

[ 1] [2] [3] Estoppel may prevent someone from bringing a particular claim, particularly if a promise unsupported by consideration [ clarification needed] is being relied on by the other party.

By way of illustration: If a landlord promises the tenant that he will not exercise his right to terminate a lease, and relying upon that promise the tenant spends money improving the premises, the doctrine of promissory estoppel may prevent the landlord from exercising a right to terminate, even though his promise might not otherwise have been legally binding as a contract. The landlord is precluded from asserting a specific right. If a person brings legal proceedings in one country claiming that a second person negligently injured them and the courts of that country determine that there was no negligence, then under the doctrine of issue estoppel the first person will not normally be able to argue before the courts of another country that the second person was negligent (whether in respect of the same claim or a related claim). The first person is precluded from asserting a specific claim. Estoppel is an equitable doctrine.

"text": "A trust deed sale is the end result of the foreclosure process which a lender uses to recover the balance due on a defaulted loan secured by real estate. It is also referred to as a nonjudicial foreclosure sale because the lender can use this process without having to file a lawsuit against the borrower. Before a trust deed sale can occur, written notice must be given as specified by state law. Trust Deed Basics A trust deed and mortgage are similar in that both are used by lenders to secure repayment of a loan with real estate. However, a mortgage only involves two parties, the lender and borrower, while a trust deed requires three parties: the lender, borrower and a trustee. The trust deed must be in writing and signed by the borrower, typically called the trustor in the document. In order to be valid, the trust deed must also specifically name the lender, called the beneficiary in the document, and a trustee. Under this arrangement, the trustee holds legal title to the real estate, but does not take any action unless the loan secured by the trust deed goes into default and the lender instructs the trustee to start a foreclosure. Protect your loved ones. Start My Estate Plan Power of Sale The defining aspect of a trust deed is the power of sale conferred on the trustee."

"text": "5 Important Facts about Quit Claim Deeds Deeds are legal instruments used to transfer real estate, and almost everyone will encounter a deed of some sort at one time or another. There are three main types of deeds: General warranty deeds Special warranty deeds Quit claim deeds The difference between each type of deed has to do with the types of warranties the grantor (the party selling or otherwise transferring ownership of the property) is making to the grantee (the person buying or otherwise receiving ownership of the property). No Warranties Are Included With the other two types of deeds, the grantee is receiving certain warranties when he or she receives ownership of the property. Usually, these warranties include the promise that the grantor has proper ownership and the right to sell the property, as well as the warranty that the grantor will defend the grantee against adverse claims to ownership from other parties that may arise. However, the grantee of a quit claim deed receives no such assurances. In this case, the grantor is simply “quitting” all claim to the property by giving the grantee whatever ownership interest the grantor has, if any. The deed simply transfers ownership without making any warranties. Thus, if the grantor never had proper title to the property to begin with, then the grantee is receiving nothing. But Sometimes They Are the Perfect Tool for the Job!Just because the grantor isn’t making any warranties does not mean that you should never accept a quit claim deed. First of all, in many situations the grantee does not need (or care about) warranties."

The significant difference between a mortgage and deed of trust is that with a deed of trust, the house can be foreclosed without permission from a court. A second deed of trust is a deed that is second in priority to a first deed of trust. California is a deed of trust state. Definition A second deed of trust can be a home equity loan or a second mortgage provided a second bank or even the homeowner selling the house. A second deed of trust simply means that another deed was given out, after the first, to secure the second loan with the equity in the house. Much like a first deed of trust, the second deed of trust is a promissory note that requires monthly payments and accrues interest. Sequence Counts With deeds of trust, the first one to record is the first deed of trust."

"text": "\"Correct all you're your grammar errors instantly. Try it now.mortgage (redirected from Equity Mortgage) Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Medical, Financial, Encyclopedia. Related to Equity Mortgage: Growing Equity Mortgage Mortgage A legal document by which the owner (i.e., the buyer) transfers to the lender an interest in realestate to secure the repayment of a debt, evidenced by a mortgage note. When the debt is repaid,the mortgage is discharged, and a satisfaction of mortgage is recorded with the register or recorder of deeds in the county where the mortgage was recorded. Because most people cannot afford to buy real estate with cash, nearly every real estate transaction involves a mortgage. The party who borrows the money and gives the mortgage (the debtor) is the mortgagor; the partywho pays the money and receives the mortgage (the lender) is the mortgagee. Under early Englishand U. S. law, the mortgage was treated as a complete transfer of title from the borrower to thelender. The lender was entitled not only to payments of interest on the debt but also to the rents andprofits of the real estate. This meant that as far as the borrower was concerned, the real estate was of no value, that is, \"\"dead,\"\" until the debt was paid in full—hence the Norman-English name \"\"mort\"\" (dead), \"\"gage\"\" (pledge). The mortgage must be executed according to the formalities required by the laws of the state wherethe property is located."

"text": "What is needed to evict my former boyfriend from my home that he does not support financially? Full Question: My boyfriend and I have been living together for about 5 to 6 years. I bought a log house with 10 acres with the understanding that he would sell his house and then split the payments on the log house exactly. I have bought all log tools needed for the property, including a John Deere tractor for $4,500.00 to fix a well pump. He has given me a couple hundred dollars occasionally through the years and once gave me $800.00 for a mortgage payment. My mortgage is over $2,400.00. I became medically disabled with chronic back sciatica and am on major narcotics for pain. What do I need to do legally to have him move out of my house so I can have a paying renter in the 4th bedroom and rent out other acreage. Do I need him to fill out a special form, give him 30 days written notice, or what?01/31/2007 | Category: Landlord Ten... » Lease Termin... | State: California | #989Answer: We assume that the deed to the property is in your name, and your boyfriend’s name is not on the deed in any way.

Restrictions on the application of Bernoulli's equation are also clearly stated to avoid misuse of the equation. A velocity measurement device called a Pitot tube will also be presented. In addition, the concept of energy and hydraulic grade lines will be introduced. Bernoulli's Equation Flow from a Tank Flow under a Sluice Gate Flow through a Nozzle In the Conservation of Energy section, it was shown that for a control volume, the energy equation can be simplified to In many cases, the head loss (mainly due to viscous effects) can be ignored. If there is no pump or turbine in the system, then the equation becomes This relationship is a form of the Bernoulli's equation. The same relationship, but in a slightly different form, can be derived by applying conservation of momentum to a fluid element along any streamline in the flow, givingp + ρ V 2 /2 + ρ gz = constant along streamlinewhere p is the static pressure, ρ V 2 /2 is the dynamic pressure, and ρ gz is the hydrostatic pressure. Bernoulli's equation provides the relationship between pressure, velocity and elevation along a streamline. It can be applied to solve simple problems, such as flow from a tank (free jets), flow under a sluice gate and flow through a nozzle."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Kinetic molecular theory)navigation search The temperature of an ideal monatomic gas is proportional to the average kinetic energy of its atoms. The size of helium atoms relative to their spacing is shown to scale under 1950 atmospheres of pressure. The atoms have a certain, average speed, slowed down here two trillion fold from room temperature. The kinetic theory describes a gas as a large number of submicroscopic particles ( atoms or molecules ), all of which are in constant rapid motion that has randomness arising from their many collisions with each other and with the walls of the container. Kinetic theory explains macroscopic properties of gases, such as pressure, temperature, viscosity, thermal conductivity, and volume, by considering their molecular composition and motion. The theory posits that gas pressure is due to the impacts, on the walls of a container, of molecules or atoms moving at different velocities. Kinetic theory defines temperature in its own way, in contrast with the thermodynamic definition. [ 1]Under a microscope, the molecules making up a liquid are too small to be visible, but the jittery motion of pollen grains or dust particles can be seen. Known as Brownian motion, it results directly from collisions between the grains or particles and liquid molecules. As analyzed by Albert Einstein in 1905, this experimental evidence for kinetic theory is generally seen as having confirmed the concrete material existence of atoms and molecules."

The equation appears in many physics, fluid mechanics, and airplane textbooks. The equation states that the static pressure ps in the flow plus the dynamic pressure , one half of the density r times the velocity V squared, is equal to a constant throughout the flow. We call this constant the total pressure pt of the flow. As discussed on the gas properties page, there are two ways to look at a fluid; from the large, macro scale properties of the fluid that we can measure, and from the small, micro scale of the molecular motion and interaction. On this page, we will consider Bernoulli's equation from both standpoints. Macro Scale Derivation Thermodynamics is the branch of science which describes the macro scale properties of a fluid. One of the principle results of the study of thermodynamics is the conservation of energy ; within a system, energy is neither created nor destroyed but may be converted from one form to another.

The theory described on this slide is one of the most widely circulated, incorrect explanations. The theory can be labeled the \"\"Longer Path\"\" theory, or the \"\"Equal Transit Time\"\" theory. The theory states that airfoils are shaped with the upper surface longer than the bottom. The air molecules (the little colored balls on the figure) have farther to travel over the top of the airfoil than along the bottom. In order to meet up at the trailing edge, the molecules going over the top of the wing must travel faster than the molecules moving under the wing. Because the upper flow is faster, then, from Bernoulli's equation, the pressure is lower. The difference in pressure across the airfoil produces the lift. Before considering what is wrong with this theory, let's investigate the actual flow around an airfoil by doing a couple of experiments using a Java simulator which is solving the correct flow equations."

The structural element is assumed to be such that at least one of its dimensions is a small fraction, typically 1/10 or less, of the other two. [ 1] When the length is considerably longer than the width and the thickness, the element is called a beam. For example, a closet rod sagging under the weight of clothes on clothes hangers is an example of a beam experiencing bending. On the other hand, a shell is a structure of any geometric form where the length and the width are of the same order of magnitude but the thickness of the structure (known as the 'wall') is considerably smaller. A large diameter, but thin-walled, short tube supported at its ends and loaded laterally is an example of a shell experiencing bending. In the absence of a qualifier, the term bending is ambiguous because bending can occur locally in all objects. Therefore, to make the usage of the term more precise, engineers refer to a specific object such as; the bending of rods, [2] the bending of beams, [1] the bending of plates, [3] the bending of shells [2] and so on.

"text": "\"Bernoulli's principle Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Medical, Financial, Wikipedia. Related to Bernoulli's principle: Pascal's principle, Bernoulli's equation Bernoulli's principle,physical principle formulated by Daniel Bernoulli that statesthat as the speed of a moving fluid (liquid or gas) increases, the pressure within the fluid decreases. The phenomenon described by Bernoulli's principle has many practical applications; it is employed in the carburetor and the atomizer, in which air is the moving fluid, and in the aspirator, in whichwater is the moving fluid. In the first two devices air moving through a tube passes through a constriction, which causes an increase in speed and a corresponding reduction in pressure. As a result, liquid is forced up into the air stream (through a narrow tube that leads from the body of theliquid to the constriction) by the greater atmospheric pressure on the surface of the liquid. In theaspirator air is drawn into a stream of water as the water flows through a constriction. Bernoulli'sprinciple can be explained in terms of the law of conservation of energy (see conservation lawsconservation laws, in physics, basic laws that together determine which processes can or cannot occur in nature; each law maintains that the total value of the quantity governed by that law,e.g., mass or energy, remains unchanged during physical processes...... Click the link for more information., in physics). As a fluid moves from a wider pipe into a narrower pipe or a constriction, a correspondingvolume must move a greater distance forward in the narrower pipe and thus have a greater speed."

A differential equation is a mathematical equation that relates some function with its derivatives. In applications, the functions usually represent physical quantities, the derivatives represent their rates of change, and the equation defines a relationship between the two. Because such relations are extremely common, differential equations play a prominent role in many disciplines including engineering, physics, economics, and biology. In pure mathematics, differential equations are studied from several different perspectives, mostly concerned with their solutions—the set of functions that satisfy the equation. Only the simplest differential equations are solvable by explicit formulas; however, some properties of solutions of a given differential equation may be determined without finding their exact form."

"text": "\"Loading Bernoulli's Equation Daniel Bernoulli (Groningen, January 29, 1700 – July 27, 1782) was a Swiss mathematician who spent much of his life in Basel where he died. A member of a talented family of mathematicians, physicists and philosophers, he is particularly remembered for his applications of mathematics to mechanics, especially fluid mechanics, and for his pioneering work in probability and statistics. ( Wikipedia)The simplest and most popular explanations of aerodynamic lift invoke the Bernoulli principle, which, in turn, is derived from Bernoulli's theorem. Investigated in the early 1700s by Daniel Bernoulli, his equation defines the physical laws upon which most aerodynamic rules exist. This now famous equation is absolutely fundamental to the study of airflows. Every attempt to improve the way an F1 car pushes its way through molecules of air is governed by this natural relationship between fluid (gas or liquid) speed and pressure. There are several forms of Bernoulli's equation, three of which are discussed, in the succeeding paragraphs: flow along a single streamline, flow along many streamlines, and flow along an airfoil. All three equations were derived using several assumptions, perhaps the most significant being that air density does not change with pressure (i.e. air remains incompressible). Therefore they can only be applied to subsonic situations. Being that F1 cars travel much slower than Mach 1, these equations can be used to give very accurate results."

"text": "What is the 'Binomial Distribution'The binomial distribution is a probability distribution that summarizes the likelihood that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters or assumptions. The underlying assumptions of the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, that each trial has the same probability of success and that each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other. Next Up Probability Distribution Binomial Option Pricing Model Objective Probability Clinical Trials BREAKING DOWN 'Binomial Distribution'A binomial distribution summarizes the number of trials, or observations, when each trial has the same probability of attaining one particular value. The binomial distribution determines the probability of observing a specified number of successful outcomes in a specified number of trials. The expected value, or mean, of a binomial distribution is calculated by multiplying the number of trials by the probability of successes. For example, the expected value of the number of heads in 100 trials is 50, or (100 * 0.5). Bernoulli Trial The binomial distribution is the sum of a series of multiple independent and identically distributed Bernoulli trials. In a Bernoulli trial, the experiment is said to be random and could only have two possible outcomes: success or failure. For example, flipping a coin is considered to be a Bernoulli trial; each trial can only take one of two values (heads or tails), each success has the same probability (the probability of flipping a head is 0.5) and the results of one trial do not influence the results of another. Binomial Distribution Example The binomial distribution is calculated by multiplying the probability of success raised to the power of the number of successes and the probability of failure raised to the power of the difference between the number of successes and number of trials."

The formulation is applicable to structures with any shape of damage or those having more than one area of damage. The formulation uses the geometric definition of the discontinuity at the damage location and perturbation to modes and natural frequencies of the undamaged structure to determine the mode shapes and natural frequencies of the damaged structure. The geometric discontinuity at the damage location manifests itself in terms of discontinuities in the cross-sectional properties, such as the depth of the structure, the cross-sectional area or the area moment of inertia. The change in cross-sectional properties in turn affects the stiffness and mass distribution. Considering the geometric discontinuity along with the perturbation of modes and natural frequencies, the initial homogeneous differential equation with nonconstant coefficients is changed to a series of non-homogeneous differential equations with constant coefficients. Solutions of this series of differential equations is obtained in this framework. This framework is about using structural-dynamics based methods to address the existing challenges in the field of structural health monitoring (SHM). [ 1] It makes no ad hoc assumptions regarding the physical behavior at the damage location such as adding fictitious springs or modeling changes in Young's modulus.

Hedge Funds: The Due Diligence Process Hedge Funds: Funds Of Funds Hedge Funds: Conclusion By Dan Barufaldi Hedge funds use a variety of different strategies, and each fund manager will argue that he or she is unique and should not be compared to other managers. However, we can group many of these strategies into certain categories that assist an analyst/investor in determining a manager's skill and evaluating how a particular strategy might perform under certain macroeconomic conditions. The following is loosely defined and does not encompass all hedge fund strategies, but it should give the reader an idea of the breadth and complexity of current strategies. ( Learn more in Taking A Look Behind Hedge Funds . ) Equity Hedge The equity hedge strategy is commonly referred to as long/short equity and although it is perhaps one of the simplest strategies to understand, there are a variety of sub-strategies within the category. Long/Short – In this strategy, hedge fund managers can either purchase stocks that they feel are undervalued or sell short stocks they deem to be overvalued. In most cases, the fund will have positive exposure to the equity markets – for example, having 70% of the funds invested long in stocks and 30% invested in the shorting of stocks. In this example, the net exposure to the equity markets is 40% (70%-30%) and the fund would not be using any leverage (Their gross exposure would be 100%). If the manager, however, increases the long positions in the fund to, say, 80% while still maintaining a 30% short position, the fund would have gross exposure of 110% (80%+30% = 110%), which indicates leverage of 10%."

"text": "A Expert Answer Response from Chelsey Robinson, Global Preparedness Content Manager, Monsanto Company · Tuesday, 11/25/2014 11:29 am Answer at a Glance: Many of these cases are egregious examples that activists use to perpetuate the myth that Monsanto sues farmers for saving seeds, when GM seed is accidently found in their fields or for cross-pollination. Monsanto litigation with farmers over patent infringement is a relatively rare circumstance, with 145 lawsuits filed since 1997 in the United States, or an average of 11 cases per year. To date, only nine total cases have gone completely through to a trial. Monsanto has never sued a farmer when trace amounts of our patented seeds or traits were present in the farmer’s field unknowingly or as a result of inadvertent means. No business can survive if its products are used without compensation. The seed industry (including Monsanto, our competitors and independent seed retailers) is very supportive of intellectual property rights in seeds and the enforcement of those rights. You may want to read the American Seed Trade Association (ASTA) Position Statement on intellectual property rights for the seed industry. This is an important question, and one that oftentimes causes confusion. All innovative companies actively protect their intellectual property, and in rare instances, that requires the owner of that intellectual property to take an infringer to court. Agricultural companies such as Monsanto, as well as public institutions and individuals, are able to patent seed trait technology because it is considered intellectual property."

Weighing the merits of these two competing investment styles is like deciding between Batman vs. Superman. You want both. Both growth and value stocks can maximize value for investors, but the two schools of investing take different approaches. Growth investing Growth investors are attracted to companies that are expected to grow faster (either by revenues, cash flows, and definitely by profits by in the future) than the rest. As growth is the priority, companies reinvest earnings on themselves in order to expand, in the form of new workers, equipment, or acquisitions. Don’t expect dividends from growth companies – right now it’s go big or go home. Growth companies offer higher upside potential and therefore are inherently riskier. There’s no guarantee a company’s investments in growth will successfully lead to profit. Growth stocks experience stock price swings in greater magnitude so they may be best suited for risk-tolerant investors with a longer time horizon."

Travel agents still have their place: In fact, members the American Society of Travel Agents book more than 144 million vacations a year, and ASTA reported more than $17 billion in revenue for 2012. In an attempt to change consumers’ views, John Pittman, a vice president at ASTA, said the society prefers to use the term “travel professional.” This term describes the profession more broadly as today’s booking agents do more than act as the go-between for travelers, airlines and hotels. Travel professionals now work across multiple platforms (even using DIY sites) to help clients book a wide variety of vacations. “ The truth is, travel agents have adapted to the changing environment, and they are relevant and they are meeting a consumer need,” Pittman said. [ See: Why it Pays to Book With a Travel Agent]Jeff Klee, the CEO of DIY-booking website Cheap Air.com seems to agree: In June the site announced it would begin offering every customer who purchases a plane ticket access to a Cheap Air.com travel adviser who can be reached directly by email or phone.

"text": "\"Saving and investing articles Growth vs. value: Two approaches to stock selection Growth and value are two fundamental approaches in stock and stock mutual fund investing. Many growth stock mutual fund managers look for stocks of companies that they believe offer strong earnings growth potential, while value fund managers look for stocks that appear undervalued by the marketplace. Some fund managers combine the two approaches. Looking at companies: How to identify growth and value stocks While earnings of some companies may be depressed during periods of slower economic growth, growth companies generally seek to achieve high earnings growth regardless of economic conditions. \"\" Emerging\"\" growth companies are those that may have the potential to achieve high earnings growth, but have not established a history of strong earnings growth. Value stocks are those that have generally have fallen out of favor in the marketplace and are considered bargain-priced compared with book value, replacement value, or liquidation value. Typically, value stocks are priced much lower than stocks of similar companies in the same industry. This lower price may reflect investor reaction to recent company problems, such as disappointing earnings, negative publicity, or legal problems, all of which may raise doubts about the companies' long-term prospects. The value group may also include stocks of new companies that have not been recognized by investors. The primary measures used to define growth and value stocks are the price-to-earnings ratio (the price of a stock divided by the current year's earnings per share) and the price-to-book ratio (share price divided by book value per share)."

A Travel Agent Salary Featured, Travel Agent Basics | February 3, 2016 by Stephanie Lee Share 1.2K +1 26 Tweet 17 Share 121.3KSave For those that are interested in becoming a travel agent, a certain question always comes up—how much do travel agents make? If you’ve done any research, you know there are varying numbers floating around out there. I found a site that stated travel agent salaries were $57,000/yr and yet another that stated a number in the low $30’s. The world’s richest travel agent listed their apartment for $95M—that’s a pretty good salary, no? So how can you find out how much travel agents make and know it’s reliable? First off, make sure you understand how travel agents make money. When considering a travel agent salary, there are some things to take into account. Websites that don’t specialize in travel agents but write a “How much do travel agents make?” article don’t understand our industry well enough to truly answer the question."

Margins appear as percentages of net sales revenues. Margin has slightly different meanings in financial accounting and investing. Sellers have a keen interest in knowing their margins on individual products. What is a Margin? The term margin is used in business, finance, and investing in at least three different ways: First Meaning: Margins in Business Commerce As a general term in business and commerce, margin refers to the difference between selling price and the seller's costs for the goods or services being sold, expressed as a percentage of selling price. A retail shop owner, for instance may purchase finished goods inventory from a supplier at a cost of $8 per item. If the item sells for $10, the shop earns a margin on sales of 20% on the item. The shop owner's margin on sales includes only the seller's direct cost for products or services. The margin does not reflect the costs of selling them (such as store leasing fees marketing costs, or salesperson wages), and not business overhead costs (such as computer systems for the business or management salaries)."

"text": "How does the stock market affect the economy? Tejvan Pettinger February 6, 2018 stock market Movements in the stock market can have a profound economic impact on the economy and individual consumers. A collapse in share prices has the potential to cause widespread economic disruption. Most famously, the stock market crash of 1929 was a key factor in precipitating the great depression of the 1930s. Yet, daily movements in the stock market can also have less impact on the economy than we might imagine. The stock market is not the real economy. Share prices can change for many reasons – such as correcting an over-valuation and even large falls in share do not necessarily lead to lower growth. One well-known joke is: Stock markets have predicted 10 out of the last three recessions. The point is a rapid fall in share prices, doesn’t necessarily mean the economy is doing badly.

By Lee Boyce Published: 04:09 EDT, 4 October 2013 | Updated: 04:46 EDT, 4 October 201382shares117View comments Two friends and I are all set to move into a new rental house in three weeks’ time. We have asked the landlord if he can change the locks for us on both the front and back door due to our concern that the previous tenants may have not returned them or cut a copy. The area we’re moving into doesn’t exactly have the best burglary record anyway and although it might seem a little daft to suggest the previous tenants would enter the house with a set of keys, we suspect they may have had a falling out with the landlord and could want to trash the place, and our contents in the process. Can we demand the landlord change the locks from a legal point of view – or are we being unreasonable with our request? Via e-mail. Landlocked: We want our new landlord to change the locks - is it an unreasonable request? Lee Boyce, of This is Money, responds: Recent research by insurer Direct Line found that the vast majority of landlords do not change the locks on properties between tenancies, even if not all the keys have been returned. Of the letting agencies surveyed, 71 per cent said that on average 9 out of 10 landlords on their books did not change the locks between tenancies. More...

"text": "What Is Preferred Stock vs. Common Stock – Definition, Pros & Cons By Michael Lewis Posted in: Stocks Share 1 Tweet 26 Pin Comments 4Once upon a time, preferred stocks were a popular investment with companies and investors. Combining elements of debt and equity, preferred stock was an ideal issue for businesses that lacked the physical assets to collateralize debt or could not attract common stock buyers. In order to appeal to new investors, companies sweetened the pot by issuing a new security – preferred stock – that had less risk and a greater certainty of income than common stock. If a company falters and requires liquidation, the debt holders are paid in full first, followed by payment to the preferred stock holders in an amount equal to the liquidation value of the preferred stock (established at the time of the initial offering). Common stock shareholders then receive any cash remaining. Preferred shareholders receive full payment of their investment before common shareholders receive any payment. Similarly, preferred shareholders receive dividends before any common stock dividends are paid. The first preferred stocks were issued by railroad companies and canals in the mid-1800s. Today, preferred stocks are more often issued by entrepreneurial startup companies, organizations in dire financial circumstances that are precluded from traditional debt and equity, or financial companies and utilities. In recent years, preferred stocks have fallen out of favor as investors have turned to common stocks or bonds – but there are a few notable exceptions."

In 1969, the Roman Catholic Church removed St. Valentine from the General Roman Calendar, because so little is known about him. However, the church still recognizes him as a saint, listing him in the February 14 spot of Roman Martyrolgy. The legends attributed to the mysterious saint are as inconsistent as the actual identification of the man. One common story about St. Valentine is that in one point of his life, as the former Bishop of Terni, Narnia and Amelia, he was on house arrest with Judge Asterius. While discussing religion and faith with the Judge, Valentine pledged the validity of Jesus. The judge immediately put Valentine and his faith to the test."

The first Asterion was a sacred king of Crete whose wife Europa was seduced by Zeus when he took the form of a bull, producing Minos.

The first Asterion or Asterius, the son of Tectamus son of Dorus called by the Greeks \"\"king\"\" of Crete, was the consort of Europa and stepfather of her sons by Zeus, who had to assume the form of the Cretan bull of the sun to accomplish his role. The sons were Minos, the just king in Crete who judged the Underworld; Rhadamanthus, presiding over the Garden of the Hesperides or in the Underworld; and Sarpedon, likewise a judge in the Afterlife. When he died, Asterion gave his kingdom to Minos, who promptly \"\"banished\"\" his brothers after quarrelling with them. Crete, daughter of Asterion, was a possible wife of Minos. According to Karl Kerenyi and other scholars, the second Asterion, the star at the center of the labyrinth on Cretan coins, was in fact the Minotaur, as the compiler of Bibliotheca asserts: Pasiphaë gave birth to Asterius, who was called the Minotaur. He had the face of a bull, but the rest of him was human; and Minos, in compliance with certain oracles, shut him up and guarded him in the Labyrinth. \"\" Minotaur\"\" is simply a name of Hellene coining to describe his Cretan iconic bull-man image: see Minotaur."

Hers is the head upon which all \"\"the ends of the world are come,\"\" and the eyelids are a little weary. It is a beauty wrought out from within upon the flesh, the deposit, little cell by cell, of strange thoughts and fantastic reveries and exquisite passions. Set it for a moment beside one of those white Greek goddesses or beautiful women of antiquity, and how would they be troubled by this beauty, into which the soul with all its maladies has passed! All the thoughts and experience of the world have etched and moulded there, in that which they have of power to refine and make expressive the outward form, the animalism of Greece, the lust of Rome, the reverie of the middle age with its spiritual ambition and imaginative loves, the return of the Pagan world, the sins of the Borgias. She is older than the rocks among which she sits; like the vampire, she has been dead many times, and learned the secrets of the grave; and has been a diver in deep seas, and keeps their fallen day about her; and trafficked for strange webs with Eastern merchants: and, as Leda, was the mother of Helen of Troy, and, as Saint Anne, the mother of Mary; and all this has been to her but as the sound of lyres and flutes, and lives only in the delicacy with which it has moulded the changing lineaments, and tinged the eyelids and the hands. The fancy of a perpetual life, sweeping together ten thousand experiences, is an old one; and modern thought has conceived the idea of humanity as wrought upon by, and summing up in itself, all modes of thought and life. Certainly Lady Lisa might stand as the embodiment of the old fancy, the symbol of the modern idea.\"\" The Mona Lisa described by Walter Pater Ekphrasis or ecphrasis, from the Greek for the description of a work of art produced as a rhetorical exercise, [1] often used in the adjectival form ekphrastic, is a vivid, often dramatic, verbal description of a visual work of art, either real or imagined. In ancient times, it referred to a description of any thing, person, or experience."

This was based on the hypothesis that unmarried soldiers fought better than married soldiers because married soldiers might be afraid of what might happen to them or their wives or families if they died. \"\"\"\" I think we must bear in mind that it was a very permissive society in which Valentine lived,\"\" says Father O'Gara. \"\" Polygamy would have been much more popular than just one woman and one man living together."

[ 1] [3] Arian teachings were first attributed to Arius [1] ( c. AD 256–336), a Christian presbyter in Alexandria, Egypt. The teachings of Arius and his supporters were opposed to the theological views held by Homoousian Christians, regarding the nature of the Trinity and the nature of Christ. The Arian concept of Christ is based on the belief that the Son of God did not always exist but was begotten by God the Father. [ 1] [3]There was a dispute between two interpretations (Arianism and Homoousianism) based upon the theological orthodoxy of the time, and both of them attempted to solve its theological dilemmas. [ 3] So there were, initially, two equally orthodox interpretations which initiated a conflict in order to attract adepts and define the new orthodoxy. [ 3] Homoousianism was formally affirmed by the first two Ecumenical Councils."

"text": "Adrenal Insufficiency Adrenal Dysfunction The adrenal glands are small but very powerful glands that sit atop each of your kidneys located in the middle of your back. They are really two separate organs combined into one location – the outer portion called the adrenal cortex and the inner portion called the adrenal medulla. The focus of this text is on the adrenal cortex. The cortex serves primarily a hormonal function – among the main functions of the adrenal cortex are the regulation of the mineral metabolism (sodium, potassium, chloride), water balance, metabolism (utilization and distribution of carbohydrates, protein, and fat), allergic and immune reactions (such as hypersensitivity, allergies, and autoimmune diseases), and production of the male and female hormones (progesterone, testosterone, estrogens, DHEA, etc.). Some of the signs of adrenal insufficiency are often similar to those found in persons who are hypoglycemic. Some of the more common complaints reported include: Inability to concentrate Excessive fatigue, especially in the morning (hard to get going…)Nervousness and irritability Mental depression Apprehensions Excessive weakness Lightheadedness, especially upon standing up quickly Faintness and fainting Insomnia Frequent infections Intolerance to stress Patients with low adrenal cortex function may have hypoglycemia (or disturbed carbohydrate metabolism) although not all hypoglycemic patients have low adrenal function. A low flat glucose tolerance curve obtained from an oral glucose tolerance test suggests hypoadrenocorticism but can also reflect reactive hypoglycemia, some form of allergy, gouty or rheumatoid arthritis, or schizophrenia. When patients receive support for their adrenal cortex (such as with Adrenal Cortex Extract injections), they often report improvements in arthritis, pain in shoulders and back muscles, allergies, premenstrual problems, headache, migraine, ringing of the ears, tension, depression, suicidal thoughts, nervousness, apprehensions, noticeable heart action (palpitations), gastrointestinal problems, heat exhaustion, and an inability in handling stress. The following physical findings suggest low adrenal function. Skin thin and dry or scaly, pigmentation of temples, red palms or fingertips, and cold clammy palms."

ADVERTISEMENTS: He categorised people on the basis of four body humours and prominent personality characteristics associated with them such as: Recently, psychologists have attempted to study personality in their own way. They have formulated various theories to explain personality. These are divided into two types, viz., types and traits theories. Both these theories of personality focus on people’s personal characteristics. However, ‘type’ theorists and ‘trait’ theorists differ in the ways they use characteristics to describe people. Type Theories: Type theorists have explained personality on the basis of physique and temperament. Temperament refers to emotional aspect of the personality like changes in mood, tensions, excitement, etc. A ‘type’ is simply a class of individuals said to share a common collection of characteristics."

"text": "Adrenal extracts have been recommended and successfully used for a variety of conditions that involve low adrenal function, including asthenia, asthma, colds, burns, depletion from colds, coughs, dyspepsia (poor digestion), early Addison’s disease, hypotension (low blood pressure), infections, infectious diseases, depletion from infectious diseases, convalescence from infectious diseases, neurasthenia (low energy/weakness), tuberculosis, lightheadedness and dizziness, and vomiting during pregnancy. ( Harrower, ’39, pg. 19-22)History of Adrenal Cell Extracts The earliest, and still probably the most reliable, way of rebuilding the adrenals from adrenal fatigue is the use of extracts from liquid or powdered porcine adrenal glands. Historically and in many modern clinics, preparations using adrenal cell extracts have been used extensively and are considered to be the most important aspect of the treatment. The first recorded use of an adrenal extract was in 1898 when Sir William Osler administered a crude preparation of adrenal cells to a person with Addison’s disease. Since 1918, when they became commercially available, adrenal cell extracts have been a valuable and powerful form of therapy and have been used by thousands of medical doctors in the treatment of non-Addison’s type of hypoadrenia. Their first claim to fame in the United States occurred with the epicemic flu virus of 1918. Respiratory infections are especially hard on the adrenal glands and fatigue them rapidly. This effect was shown by Lucke and his associates at Camp Zachary Taylor in 1919, when he found that adrenal exhaustion was present in 103 of 126 autopsied cases of mortality from the flu epidemic. In 3 other cases he even found adrenal hemorrhages and enlargement of the adrenal glands to twice their size."

Share this page : Who is she? Friendly and affectionate, Inés appreciates the company of others. She is emotional and sensitive but appears to be quite phlegmatic and corresponds well with the asthenic type (she is often marked by the Moon or Cancer). For her, life seems to be a long, peaceful river, and she emanates calm and gentleness. Indeed, Inés isn´t particularly dynamic or enterprising, nor is she especially determined; she much prefers to put off until tomorrow that which she could easily do today, if she happened to be so inclined. Her emotions depend on her environment - most particularly the maternal and feminine sphere. She is highly receptive which can result in an apparently cyclothymic personality... Depending on her level of motivation, she can go from life in slow-motion to a much more hectic schedule when seized by a sudden impulsion which, incidentally, can disappear just as swiftly. She has an annoying tendency to spend more time daydreaming than living in the real world."

The only recommended dosage of MULTAQ (dronedarone tablets) is 400 mg twice daily in adults. The most common side effects of Multaq are:diarrhea,nausea,abdominal pain,vomiting, andweakness. A clinical trial of Multaq was halted when the drug doubled the risk of death, stroke, and hospitalization for heart failure in heart patients with permanent atrial fibrillation, so it is important to discuss the risks and benefits of Multaq with your doctor for your specific situation. The recommended dosage of Multaq is 400 mg twice daily in adults. Multaq should be taken as one tablet with the morning meal and one tablet with the evening meal. Multaq may interact with cyclosporine, dexamethasone, medications for treating tuberculosis, cyclosporine, sirolimus, tacrolimus, St. John's wort, theophylline, antibiotics, antifungals, antidepressants, anti-malaria medications, barbiturates, beta-blockers, cholesterol-lowering medicines, heart or blood pressure medications, heart rhythm medicines, medicines to prevent blood clots, medicines to prevent or treat nausea and vomiting, medicines to treat HIV / AIDS or hepatitis C, medicines to treat psychiatric disorders, migraine headache medicines, narcotics, seizure medications, and other drugs.

It is thought to strengthen the nervous system, fight depression, enhance immunity, elevate the capacity for exercise, enhance memory, aid weight reduction, increase sexual function and improve energy levels. It has long been known as a potent adaptogen. Adaptogens are substances that increase the body's overall resistance and help to normalise bodily functions. Rhodiola has a legendary history dating back thousands of years. In 77 A. D., the Greek physician Dioscorides documented the medical applications of the plant, which he then called rodia riza, in his classic medical text De Materia Medica. The Vikings depended on the herb to enhance their physical strength and endurance, while Chinese emperors sent expeditions to Siberia to bring back \"\"the golden root\"\" for medicinal preparations. The people of central Asia considered a tea brewed from Rhodiola rosea to be the most effective treatment for cold and flu. Mongolian physicians prescribed it for tuberculosis and cancer. Research on Rhodiola rosea and other medicinal herbs was part of the Soviet Union's great push to compete with the West in military development, the arms race, space exploration, Olympic sports, science, medicine, and industry."

The skeleton consists of the thoracic vertebrae and intervertebral discs, the ribs and costal cartilages, and the sternum (see fig. 19-1 ). The thoracic cavity communicates with the front of the neck by the superior thoracic aperture, or thoracic inlet, which is bounded by the upper margin of the first thoracic vertebra posteriorly, the first pair of ribs and their cartilages laterally, and the upper border of the manubrium sterni anteriorly. The aperture slopes inferior and anterior following the obliquity of the first ribs. It is occupied on each side by the apices of the lungs and pleurae and by the neurovascular bundles for the upper limbs. More medially, it is occupied by the vessels of the head and neck and by viscera. The thoracic cavity communicates with the abdomen by the inferior thoracic aperture which is closed by the diaphragm. The outlet is bounded by the twelfth thoracic vertebra, the twelfth pair of ribs, the free edges of the lower six pairs of costal cartilages, and the xiphisternal joint. Costal cartilages 7 to 10 unite and form the costal margin medially."

This is usually seen as enlarged nuclei, a moderately loose, coarse chromatin structure, and a marked widening of the basophilic cytoplasmic layer. Clinical findings, which include acute fever symptoms, enlarged lymph nodes, and sometimes exanthema, help to identify a lymphatic reactive state. Unlike the case in acute leukemias, erythrocyte and thrombocyte counts are not significantly reduced. Although the granulocyte count is relatively reduced, its absolute value (per microliter) rarely falls below the lower limit of normal values. Morphologically normal lymphocytes predominate in the blood analyses in the following diseases:> Whooping cough (pertussis) with clear leukocytosis and total lymphocyte counts up to 20 000 and even 50 000/^l; occasionally, slightly plasmacytoid differentiation. > Infectious lymphocytosis, a pediatric infectious disease with fever of short duration.

"text": "\"Difference Between Lithosphere and Crust Posted on August 23, 2011 by koshal Last updated on: April 6, 2015Lithosphere vs Crust The difference between lithosphere and crust finds its base in the formation of the earth. Earth, which is a spheroid, is not a monolithic, uniform structure, but divided into layers having different characteristics. Starting from the center of the earth, it is the core that is encountered first (3400km radius). Then comes the mantle that surrounds this core and has a radius of 2890km. The surface of the earth down to the mantle that literally floats on the mantle is called the crust and is made of basalt and granite. The lithosphere is a layer that includes the crust and the uppermost portion of the asthenosphere. Thus, the lithosphere contains the oceanic crust, continental crust, as well as the uppermost mantle. It confuses many as to why there are two names for the same layer of earth. Well, it has to do with different ways scientists study the earth and its properties. While lithosphereis studied with the mechanical properties of the earth in mind, the crust is studied with a focus on the chemical composition of the earth."

Anatomy is the term applied to the science of the structure of the body. Physiology is the study of the function of the body organs. Osteology is the detailed study of the body of knowledge relating to the bones of the body. Radiographers also must have a general understanding of all body systems and their functions. Particular attention must be given to gaining a thorough understanding of the skeletal system and the surface landmarks used to locate different body parts. The radiographer must be able to visualize mentally the internal structures that are to be radiographed. By using external landmarks, the radiographer should properly position body parts to obtain the best diagnostic radiographs possible.

The asthenosphere forms the base of the tectonic plates, which contain many different layers. This layer forms from a buildup of dense rock created from semi-solid materials, and it comprises a layer of Earth's mantle. Continue Reading Keep Learning What Is a Geological Plate? What Causes the Tectonic Plates to Move? What Are the Three Types of Plate Boundaries? Full Answer The asthenosphere contains materials more dense than those of the tectonic plates lying above, which enables the plates' flotation. The positioning of tectonic plates above the asthenosphere and resulting movement is just one small part of how tectonic plates work. The Earth's crust forms from many other layers of sedimentary deposit, which form above and below the asthenosphere."

On Earth, it is composed of the crust and the portion of the upper mantle that behaves elastically on time scales of thousands of years or greater. The outermost shell of a rocky planet, the crust, is defined on the basis of its chemistry and mineralogy. The study of past and current formations of landscapes is called geomorphology.

The lithosphere is subdivided into tectonic plates. The uppermost part of the lithosphere that chemically reacts to the atmosphere, hydrosphere and biosphere through the soil forming process is called the pedosphere. The lithosphere is underlain by the asthenosphere which is the weaker, hotter, and deeper part of the upper mantle. The Lithosphere-Asthenosphere boundary is defined by a difference in response to stress: the lithosphere remains rigid for very long periods of geologic time in which it deforms elastically and through brittle failure, while the asthenosphere deforms viscously and accommodates strain through plastic deformation. History of the concept The concept of the lithosphere as Earth’s strong outer layer was described by A. E. H. Love in his 1911 monograph \"\"Some problems of Geodynamics\"\" and further developed by Joseph Barrell, who wrote a series of papers about the concept and introduced the term \"\"lithosphere\"\". ["

The upper part of the asthenosphere is believed to be the zone upon which the great rigid and brittle lithospheric plates of the earth's crust move about (see plate tectonics ). The asthenosphere is generally located between 45–155 miles (72–250 km) beneath the earth's surface, though under the oceans it is usually much nearer the surface and at mid-ocean ridges rises to within a few miles of the ocean floor. Although its presence was suspected as early as 1926, the worldwide occurrence of the plastic zone was confirmed by analyses of earthquake waves from the Chilean earthquake of May 22, 1960. The seismic waves, the speed of which decreases with the softness of the medium, passed relatively slowly though the asthenosphere, thus it was given the name Low Velocity zone, or the Seismic Wave Guide (see seismology ). Deep-zone earthquakes, i.e., those that occur in the asthenosphere or below it, may be caused by crustal plates sinking into the mantle along convergent crustal boundaries. See earth.

Abstract The South Pacific superswell is a broad region situated in the south central Pacific, characterized by numerous geophysical anomalies including very shallow seafloor compared to the depth predicted for its age by classical seafloor subsidence models, a negative geoid anomaly, a mantle characterized by slow seismic velocities, and a high volcanism concentration. Until recently, the image of the mantle provided by the seismic tomography models was rather blurry due to the sparse distribution of seismometers. This shortcoming has been lately overcome by regional seismic observations on islands and seafloor. The new P-wave seismic tomography model derived from these regional data in addition to global data provides a more reliable and precise image of the mantle, in particular beneath the French Polynesia region. We use it to perform numerical simulations of the instantaneous flow occurring in the mantle, using realistic laws for converting velocity anomalies into density anomalies and for describing the viscosity variations. We compute the associated dynamic topography and geoid anomaly. We show that the superswell could be caused by the large-scale slow velocity anomalies in the lower mantle, which are recognized as the South Pacific superplume. The surface geodetic observations are explained by a model including a low viscosity asthenosphere situated immediately beneath the lithosphere, and a lower mantle viscosity 100 times greater than the upper mantle one. Our study assumes a purely thermal origin of the velocities anomalies."

Barrell, a British geologist when he divided the interior of the Earth into three parts. The lithosphere is the outer layer of the Earth that contains crustal plates. The middle layer lies beneath the lithosphere and can flow like a liquid and break like a solid. The centrosphere, which is the central part of planet Earth, lies beneath the top two layers and goes all the way to the center of the Earth. Earth's upper layers, USGSEarthquake waves Scientists study the asthenosphere using seismographs that record earthquake waves. They have found that this layer's boundaries can be defined by the speed of earthquake waves travel through the rocks. P-waves and s-waves are produced by all earthquakes. Scientists studying s-waves found that these waves slowed down at 100 km (62 mi) beneath the Earth's surface and sped up at 250 km (155 mi) within the Earth. Using these facts they discovered that the s-waves speeds define the upper and lower boundary of this section of the Earth."

The lithosphere is the brittle outer layer of the solid Earth. The plates of plate tectonics are segments of the lithosphere. Its top is easy to see -- it's at the Earth's surface -- but the base of the lithosphere is in a transition, which is an active area of research. Flexing the Lithosphere The lithosphere is not totally rigid, but slightly elastic. It flexes when loads are placed on it or removed from it. Ice-age glaciers are one type of load. In Antarctica, for example, the thick ice cap has pushed the lithosphere well below sea level today. In Canada and Scandinavia, the lithosphere is still unflexing where the glaciers melted about 10,000 years ago. Here are some other types of loading: Construction of volcanoes Deposition of sediment Rise in sea level Formation of large lakes and reservoirs Here are other examples of unloading: Erosion of mountains Excavation of canyons and valleys Drying up of large water bodies Lowering of sea level The flexing of the lithosphere from these causes is relatively small (usually much less than a kilometer [km]), but measurable."

The lithosphere is underlain by the asthenosphere which is the weaker, hotter, and deeper part of the upper mantle. The Lithosphere-Asthenosphere boundary is defined by a difference in response to stress: the lithosphere remains rigid for very long periods of geologic time in which it deforms elastically and through brittle failure, while the asthenosphere deforms viscously and accommodates strain through plastic deformation. History of the concept The concept of the lithosphere as Earth’s strong outer layer was described by A. E. H.

Diagram of the internal layering of the Earth showing the lithosphere above the asthenosphere (not to scale)Plate tectonics (from the Late Latin tectonicus, from the Greek: τεκτονικός \"\"pertaining to building\"\") [1] is a scientific theory describing the large-scale motion of seven large plates and the movements of a larger number of smaller plates of the Earth 's lithosphere, since tectonic processes began on Earth between 3 and 3.5 billion years ago. The model builds on the concept of continental drift, an idea developed during the first decades of the 20th century. The geoscientific community accepted plate-tectonic theory after seafloor spreading was validated in the late 1950s and early 1960s. The lithosphere, which is the rigid outermost shell of a planet (the crust and upper mantle), is broken into tectonic plates. The Earth's lithosphere is composed of seven or eight major plates (depending on how they are defined) and many minor plates. Where the plates meet, their relative motion determines the type of boundary: convergent, divergent, or transform. Earthquakes, volcanic activity, mountain -building, and oceanic trench formation occur along these plate boundaries (or faults ). The relative movement of the plates typically ranges from zero to 100 mm annually. [ 2]Tectonic plates are composed of oceanic lithosphere and thicker continental lithosphere, each topped by its own kind of crust."

Many geologists believe that as the Earth cooled the heavier, denser materials sank to the center and the lighter materials rose to the top. Because of this, the crust is made of the lightest materials (rock- basalts and granites) and the core consists of heavy metals (nickel and iron). The crust is the layer that you live on, and it is the most widely studied and understood. The mantle is much hotter and has the ability to flow. The Outer and Inner Cores are hotter still with pressures so great that you would be squeezed into a ball smaller than a marble if you were able to go to the center of the Earth!!!!! ! The Crust The Earth's Crust is like the skin of an apple. It is very thin in comparison to the other three layers. The crust is only about 3-5 miles (8 kilometers) thick under the oceans ( oceanic crust) and about 25 miles (32 kilometers) thick under the continents ( continental crust ). The temperatures of the crust vary from air temperature on top to about 1600 degrees Fahrenheit (870 degrees Celcius) in the deepest parts of the crust."

"text": "\"Plate Tectonics Follow City-Data.com founder on our Forum or @Lech Mazur Plate tectonics is the unifying theory of geology that describes and explains that all earthquakes, volcanic activity, and mountain-building processes are caused by the gradual movement of rigid slabs of rock, called plates, that make up the Earth's surface layer. Given the expanse of geologic time, even modest movements—measured in centimeters or inches per year—result in substantial changes in the distribution of lands and oceans over millions of years. Earth Structure The Earth's internal structure can be viewed in two ways: either in terms of compositional layers, or in terms of layers of varying strength. There are three main compositional layers: the crust, mantle, and core. The crust, the outermost layer, is relatively buoyant and very thin compared to the mantle and core. Beneath the oceans, the oceanic crust varies very little in thickness, generally extending only about 5 kilometers (3.1 miles), and is composed of basalt . The crust beneath the continents, however, is much more variable in thickness, averaging about 30 kilometers (18.6 miles); under large mountain ranges it can extend to depths of up to 100 kilometers (62.1 miles). The San Andreas fault is the border between two tectonic plates—the North American Plate and Pacific Plate. Los Angeles is located on the Pacific Plate, and San Francisco is on the North American Plate. In a few million years, the two geographic areas will be right next to each other because the western side of the fault (the Pacific Plate) is moving northward with respect to the rest of the state."

Discovering the anomalous heat flow at mid-ocean ridges in comparison to abyssal plains - A greater heat flow at the mid-ocean ridges also supports the hypothesis that new crust is created at these locations, but it does not directly support understanding the origins of symmetric patterns of magnetic anomalies (pg 46)Identify the TRUE statement: Mid-ocean ridges Have higher geothermal gradients compared to most other areas of oceanic crust - The rise of hot mantle at mid-ocean ridges results in a higher geothermal gradient (pg 43)Lithosphere can be both created and destroyed at transform-plate boundaries False - Plates pass by one another over the the Earth's surface at transform boundaries, and lithosphere is neither created nor destroyed at these boundaries (pg 51)Who was Alfred Wegener? The first geoscientist to provide geologic observations supporting a vastly different past arrangement of the continents - Wegener was a German explorer and geologist who combined information from multiple continents to support the idea that they had at one time been assembled together in a specific arrangement (35)Why was the man who first advocated the idea of continental drift scoffed at by geoscientists in the 1920s? He could not provide a mechanism to move the continents or show that they were moving - He and other scientists could only observe current conditions on the Earth's surface and lacked many lines of evidence that would develop in the next 70 years (36)Oceanic lithosphere subducts because it is thinner than continental lithosphere False - Continental lithosphere is less dense than the underlying asthenosphere, whereas all but very young oceanic lithosphere is denser than asthenosphere (53)The variability in the depths of oceans and seas is called? Bathymetry - Topography and bathymetry are both terms for the shape, extents and elevations of the interface of solid earth material (rock or sediment) with fluid.

"text": "Asthenosphere The asthenosphere is the layer of Earth that lies at a depth 60 – 150 mi (100 – 250 km) beneath Earth's surface. It was first named in 1914 by the British geologist J. Barrell, who divided Earth's overall structure into three major sections: the lithosphere , or outer layer of rock-like material; the asthenosphere; and the centrosphere, or central part of the planet. The asthenosphere gets its name from the Greek word for weak, asthenis, because of the relatively fragile nature of the materials of which it is made. It lies in the upper portion of Earth's structure traditionally known as the mantle. Geologists are somewhat limited as to the methods by which they can collect information about Earth's interior. For example, they may be able to study rocky material ejected from volcanoes and lava flows for hints about properties of the interior regions. But generally speaking, the single most dependable source of such information is the way in which seismic waves are transmitted through Earth's interior. These waves can be produced naturally as the result of earth movements, or they can be generated synthetically by means of explosions, air guns, or other techniques. Seismic studies have shown that a type of wave known as S-waves slow down significantly as they reach a depth of about 62 mi (100 km) beneath Earth's surface. Then, at a depth of about 155 mi (250 km), their velocity increases once more."

Now, \"\"for the first time in all of time man has seen the Earth from the depths of space---seen it whole and round and beautiful and small.\"\" With satellite photography Earth is seen literally from a new point of view and geology is perceived and understood in a new planetary perspective. Almost without our realizing it, the tools for space studies have brought about a new age of rediscovery of the planet Earth itself. Viewed from space, Earth presents a fascinating range of surface features (Figure 8.1). By an alien scientist it might be called the Blue Planet; but the deserts, such as the Sahara, are distinctly orange and the lush vegetation gives the tropics a deep greenish hue. Contrasting beautifully with the azure blue are the white streamers of clouds and the massive ice cap of Antarctica. To many, the breathtaking photographs of Earth from space may be simple items of great beauty, but to the student of geology they reveal much more than mere clouds, oceans, and continents. These photographs tell us much about how the planet works as a dynamic system undergoing constant change.8.1 Major Concepts1. Earth, like the other rocky inner planets, is differentiated with a dense iron-rich core that is still partially molten, a thick mantle of iron- and magnesium-rich silicates, and a crust of silica-rich and magnesium-poor rocks.2."

The theory encompassed and superseded the older theory of continental drift from the first half of the 20th century and the concept of seafloor spreading developed during the 1960s. The outermost part of the Earth's interior is made up of two layers: above is the lithosphere, comprising the crust and the rigid uppermost part of the mantle. Below the lithosphere lies the asthenosphere. Although solid, the asthenosphere has relatively low viscosity and shear strength and can flow like a liquid on geological time scales. The deeper mantle below the asthenosphere is more rigid again. This is, however, not due to cooler temperatures but due to high pressure. The lithosphere is broken up into what are called tectonic plates, in the case of Earth, there are seven major and many minor plates (see list below)."

"text": "Constructive plate margins are areas where new crust is formed. This type of margin develops in situations where rising and diverging mantle convection currents create forces which pull or push the plates apart. Magma is injected into the lithospheric plates along the spreading line and crystallises to form new plate material. These types of plate margin are characterised by the birth and growth of ocean basins which are formed by the divergence of the plates. Constructive margins occur both on land and under the sea. Oceanic constructive margin Continental constructive margin Continental constructive margins This type of margin is developed where rising mantle convection currents occur below a continental plate. The rising hot mantle material causes the overlying continental plate to dome up and stretch. Stretching of the relatively rigid plate causes brittle fractures to develop, and the plate eventually cracks. As the mantle convection currents diverge, the plate is gradually pulled apart and the central blocks between the faults sink downwards, forming a rift valley. Movement between the different fragments of crust in the rift valley causes frequent shallow focus earthquakes."

Answer by SBDW1 _ Confidence votes 30.0KThe asthenosphere is that part of the Earth which is viscous and undergoes ductile deformation and convection on a geological time scale. It is part of the upper mantle and is approximately 600 km thick laying below the lithosphere at a depth of around 100 to 200 km and it's base is around 700 km deep. The asthenosphere is a region of the upper mantle of the Earth. At 80 to 200km deep, it lies below the lithosphere and comprises a highly viscous, mechanically weak and ductilely-deforming layers which may be partially melted in places. The lower boundary of the asthenosphere is not well defined. The asthenosphere is a physical layer of the upper mantle which is directly below the lithosphere.

The bulk of the mantle is composed of extremely hot rock under enormous pressure. The mantle may be very close to the melting point of the rock which composes it, or even partially melted. Mantle rock is higher in magnesium and iron than the crust. Rocks in the upper mantle are composed of the minerals olvine, garnet, spinel and pyroxene. With increasing depth, some of these minerals become unstable and are replaced by mineral polymorphs which have the same chemical composition, but different structures.

Because of this, the crust is made of the lightest materials (rock- basalts and granites) and the core consists of heavy metals (nickel and iron). The crust is the layer that you live on, and it is the most widely studied and understood. The mantle is much hotter and has the ability to flow. The Outer and Inner Cores are hotter still with pressures so great that you would be squeezed into a ball smaller than a marble if you were able to go to the center of the Earth!!!!! ! The Crust The Earth's Crust is like the skin of an apple. It is very thin in comparison to the other three layers. The crust is only about 3-5 miles (8 kilometers) thick under the oceans ( oceanic crust) and about 25 miles (32 kilometers) thick under the continents ( continental crust ).

[ 2]The first documented film made in Oregon was a short silent film titled The Fisherman's Bride, shot in Astoria by the Selig Polyscope Company, and released in 1909. [ 3] Since then, numerous major motion pictures have been shot in the state, including F. W. Murnau 's City Girl (1930), One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975), Animal House (1978), Stand by Me (1986), Free Willy (1993), and Wild (2014). Portland —Oregon's largest city—has been a major shooting location for filmmakers, and has been featured prominently in the films of Gus Van Sant, namely Mala Noche (1985), Drugstore Cowboy (1989), My Own Private Idaho (1991), and Elephant (2003).

"text": "\"New York's iconic Waldorf Astoria sold to Chinese businessmen The epitome of American luxury, home of Waldorf salad and where room service invented becomes the most expensive hotel in the world The Waldorf Astoria has become the world's most expensive hotel after being sold to Chinese firm for just under $2 billion. Photo: EPA/JUSTIN LANEBy Rosa Prince, New York6:00AM BST 08 Oct 2014Follow It is the epitome of American luxury, the place where the Waldorf salad was born, room service invented and where long-term resident Cole Porter's piano remains in the lobby. But now New York's Waldorf Astoria Hotel is in the hands of a man whose background lies thousands of miles and a political philosophy away, after the hotel was sold to a group of Chinese businessmen. With a pricetag of just under $2 billion (£1.24 bn), making it the most expensive ever sold, the iconic hotel situated on Park Avenue just above Grand Central Station in midtown Manhattan was bought by the Beijing-based Anbang Insurance Group, headed by the grandson of the architect of modern China. Businessmam Wu Xiaohui is married to the granddaughter of Deng Xiaoping, the former Communist guerrilla who served as China's paramount leader from the late 1970s until his death in 1997. Deng is widely credited for opening China up to the rest of the world economically after decades of Communist isolation.

The current art deco building is the second incarnation of the famous hotel, which was originally built on 5th Avenue in 1893 on the site of a mansion owned by millionaire William Waldorf Astoria. According to legend, the Waldorf salad, made with apples, grapes, celery, walnuts and a mayonnaise dressing, was invented by Oscar Tschirky, the maître d'hôtel in 1896. Hugely popular in its heyday, the Senate hearings into the sinking of the Titanic were held at the 5th Avenue location, but having suffered from the effects of Prohibition it was demolished in 1929 to make way for the Empire State Building."

Contents [ hide ]1 History2 Properties3 Ranking and awards4 Events5 References6 External links History [ edit]In January 2006, Hilton Hotels, Inc announced it would launch a luxury brand called The Waldorf Astoria Collection, branded after the flagship The Waldorf Astoria in New York City. In 2014, this property was sold to Anbang Insurance, while Hilton still manages the hotel under its brand. [ 1] Some of Hilton's properties carry the \"\"Waldorf\"\" name in their title, but are not part of the Waldorf Astoria chain — The Waldorf Hilton, London being an example. As of April 2007, there were four properties—the Arizona Biltmore in Phoenix, La Quinta Resort & Spa in La Quinta, California, The Waldorf Astoria in New York and the Grand Wailea Resort & Spa in Wailea, Maui, Hawaii. Later in 2007, the Qasr Al Sharq in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, was added to the portfolio. The next property to join the portfolio was the Rome Cavalieri, a rebranding and upgrading of the Cavalieri in Rome, Italy, in early summer 2008. During the fall of 2008, three Florida hotels, located in Boca Raton, Key West and Naples, were also added. In July 2009, the Dakota Mountain Lodge opened in Park City, Utah; it later dropped the \"\"Dakota Mountain Lodge\"\" title and is now known simply as Waldorf Astoria Park City."

[ 9] In 2003 HL&P was split into Texas Genco (which got the power plants), Center Point Energy (which got the distribution system) and Reliant Energy (which provided the electricity to business and individuals). [ 10]In 2006, NRG Energy bought Texas Genco from a group of private equity firms for roughly $5.9 billion. [ 11] Afterwards, in May 2009, NRG Energy acquired the retail operations of Reliant Energy. With those two moves, NRG's holdings represented most of the former HL&P and today serve 1.6 million customers in Texas. The retail operations continue to operate under the Reliant Energy name while the remainder of the former Reliant Energy became RRI Energy. Following the acquisition of Reliant, NRG extended its retail footprint with the acquisition of Green Mountain Energy in November 2010. [ 12] In doing so, NRG also became the largest retailer of green power in the nation, providing all of its Green Mountain and many of its Reliant customers with energy derived from 100% renewable resources.

Penney’s closure The letter to the company highlights Astoria as an important commercial hub By Erick Bengel The Daily Astorian Published on March 24, 2017 7:41AMLast changed on March 24, 2017 8:30AMDanny Miller/The Daily Astorian People walk by the J. C. Penney on Commercial Street Friday in downtown Astoria. The store is slated to start liquidating its stock April 17 and to close June 18. Buy this photo Multimedia Letter to J. C. Penney CEO pdf file In the wake of J. C. Penney Co.’s decision to close Astoria’s 101-year-old store, the City Council plans to send the company’s CEO a letter today asking him to reconsider. The chain department store recently announced it would soon shutter two distribution facilities and 138 stores, including the historic location in downtown Astoria, to help the company’s bottom line. Astoria’s residents are already mourning the loss. On Monday, the City Council authorized Councilor Cindy Price to draft the letter to CEO Marvin Ellison, which the entire council later signed. The letter does not offer a sentimental plea to save the store on Commercial Street, but a pragmatic rundown of reasons that might rekindle the company’s financial interest in the area. The city’s economy is “diverse and robust, with a low (4.2 percent) unemployment rate, all of which fully supports continuing strong sales at the downtown Astoria J. C. Penney store. ”Astoria, the councilors remind Ellison, is a “port of entry and regional trading center. ”On top of national retailers already investing in the region and “achieving healthy sales,” Wal Mart is scheduled to open a Warrenton store in 2018.“Between 2007 and 2016 the retail component of our economy was the third fastest growth sector, after leisure & hospitality and education & health services, with a 7 percent growth in employment,” the letter reads. “"

Hardenbergh (1847-1918)location Fifth Avenue and 33rd Streetdate1893style Historicist Skyscrapers Second Empire Baroque French Chateauconstruction Stone and brick cladding, steel frame. Mansard roof.type Hotelimagesnotes In 1890 William Waldorf Astor decided to raze the family mansion on the corner of Fifth Avenue and 33rd Street and commissioned Henry J. Hardenbergh to build the largest, most luxurious hotel in the world. The 13 story Waldorf Hotel, with 450 rooms, opened in 1893 and was instantly the talk of the town. Its success inspired John Jacob Astor, William’s cousin, who owned the other half of the block, to demolish his house and build an adjacent connected hotel. The Astoria, also designed by Hardenbergh, was combined with the Waldorf in 1897 to form the Waldorf-Astoria. The hotel was not just for travelers—in its 40 public rooms the fashionable society of New York gathered, dined, and entertained. The staff numbered nearly as many as the 1,500 guests that registered daily in its 1,300 rooms. Hardenbergh built many of New York’s grand hotels and apartment buildings of that era, including the Dakota Apartments (1884) and the Plaza Hotel (1906). The Waldorf-Astoria Hotel was demolished in 1929 to make way for the construction of the Empire State Building. The hotel’s refined Art Deco successor soon rose on Park Avenue between 49th and 50th Streets."

"text": "\"Church-affiliated: $25-125 per session Private or secular: $50-$150 per session Group seminar: $100-$300E-mail Post Tweet Comments (1)Before saying \"\"I do,\"\" many couples participate in premarital counseling. This may be conducted in a group seminar with several other couples or in private sessions with the couple and a therapist. Private sessions are typically one hour long, and couples attend an average of four to six total sessions. Topics covered typically include relationship strengths and growth areas, communication, conflict resolution, financial planning, family of origin, spirituality, sexual relationship and family and personal goals. Typical costs: Church-affiliated premarital counseling typically ranges from $25 to $125 per one-hour session. It is often required that couples wishing to be married at a specific church attend premarital counseling there. For example, Community Nazarene Church [ 1] in Wyandanch, New York, offers a six-session, $300 counseling package at an average cost of $50 per session. Private or secular premarital counseling typically ranges from $50 to $150 per one-hour session.

"text": "\"Average: $700E-mail Post Tweet Comments (26)Typical costs: The average cost for wedding flowers, including the bride's and bridesmaids' bouquets and groom's and groomsmen's boutonnieres and corsages for the mothers of the bride and groom, along with flower girl flowers, is $698, according to The Bridal Association of America [ 1] . The bride's bouquet usually costs $50 to $150 or more - two to three times as much as the bridesmaids' bouquets, because it is larger and more ornate. The boutonnieres are much cheaper, usually about $10 or more. Cost depends heavily on how many flowers are used, how ornate the bouquets or decorations are, the time of year, the type of flowers used and whether they are locally grown. Simple designs with in-season, local flowers are cheapest while elaborate designs with exotic flowers shipped from far away, especially orchids, are most expensive. For example, on the low end, a simple 20-stem bride's bouquet of one type of bulb flower, such as tulips, hand-tied with a ribbon might cost $50. In the mid-range, a crescent bouquet with a more expensive flower such as roses or calla lilies might cost $75. And on the high end, a 40-stem cascading bouquet with roses, gardenias and orchids might cos t $120 or more. One Wed.com [ 2] displays a gallery of various bridal bouquets. Related articles: Centerpieces, Corsage, Silk Flowers, Rose Petals, Wedding Dress, Wedding Cake What should be included: Most full-service florists will consult with the customer, then order, arrange and deliver the flowers to the wedding site."

Astoria was incorporated by the Oregon Legislative Assembly on October 20, 1876.

Located on the south shore of the Columbia River, the city is served by the deepwater Port of Astoria. Transportation includes the Astoria Regional Airport with U. S. Route 30 and U. S. Route 101 as the main highways, and the 4.1-mile (6.6 km) Astoria–Megler Bridge connecting to neighboring Washington across the river. The population was 9,477 at the 2010 census.

"text": "Weddings aren’t cheap. The average American wedding costs about $30,000. What if you could afford to spend that much (or more) on your wedding dress alone? Or spend $1.5 million just on wine for your reception? For some, money is no object. They can, and will, spend upwards of millions of dollars to show their love for their betrothed to the entire world. Below are some of the most expensive weddings ever recorded. Some of these became more costly, as they didn’t survive very far past the nuptials, ending in divorce just a short time later. In those cases, the wedding ended up costing at least one party much more than the stated price tag.1. Vanisha Mittal and Amit Bhatia November 18, 2006Cost: $78 million The record-holder for the world’s most expensive wedding to date is the nuptials of Vanisha Mittal (daughter of billionaire Lakshmi Mittal) and investment banker Amit Bhatia."

Photo: uploaded by Shar3Mor31Anti Tank Dogs Anti-tank dogs (Russian: Собаки-истребители танков or Противотанковые собаки; German: Panzerabwehrhunde or Hundeminen, \"\"dog-mines\"\") were dogs taught to carry explosives to tanks, armored vehicles, and other military targets. Although the original dog training routine was to leave the bomb and retreat so that the bomb would be detonated by the timer, this routine failed and was replaced by the impact detonation procedure, which killed the dog in the process. They were actively trained by the Soviet and Russian military forces in 1930–1996 and used in 1941–1942 against German tanks in World War II. The U. S. military trained anti-tank dogs in 1943 for use against fortifications, but never deployed them. Dogs strapped with explosives were unsuccessfully used by Iraqi insurgents in 2005."

However, seeing this list of 25 distracted driving statistics all together in one long list really can put it into perspective. Going through and reading these statistics proving the dangers of distracted driving and then realizing that millions of people still drive while distracted is a sad truth. Over 2.5 million people in the U. S. are involved in road accidents each year. The population of the US is just 318.9 million. At this rate, the American people could be extinct in two human lifespans. This is an astounding number of traffic accidents. Of these, 1.6 million have a cell phone involved in them. That’s 64% of all the road accidents in the United States. Over half the road accidents in the States have cell phones involved, and if this doesn’t make you realize just how potent it is, what will?37,000+ people die in automobile crashes in the U.

"text": "Grand Slams Major League Baseball Baseball How rare is a grand slam in baseball?1 Answer Anonymous Answered Aug 25, 2011 · Upvoted by Quora User, MLB employee 1979-1989For Major League Baseball: Between 1998 and 2008, an average of 135.6 grand slams were hit per season. [ 1] 30 teams play 162 games each (with 2 teams participating in each game), so that means that a grand slam is hit roughly once every 18 games. Each team bats about 34 times per game in the major leagues [2], so that means a grand slam is hit about once every 1219 at bats. At lower levels of baseball, home runs and hits and walks are all much more common, so grand slams would occur more frequently.

With the recent rise in the luxury spending trend, the list most expensive items sold at auction is rapidly growing, with hundreds and millions of dollars being spent on various priceless items such as paintings, sculptures, vintage cars, comic books etc. Globally renowned auction houses such as the likes of Sotheby’s, Christie’s etc. are now greatly benefitting from the arrival of Russian and Chinese millionaires as well as billionaires, who have exhibited an intense interest in valuable pieces of art, automobiles and other antiquities. From Pablo Picasso, Marilyn Monroe to the U. S national anthem, nowadays, nearly everything vintage and historic is now being valued at extremely high prices and considered to be a prized possession. Realizing the immense impact of auctions on the luxury market and the fact that some of the rarest treasures of time are now being made available, we decided to apprise our readers of the 20 Most Expensive Auction Items.1. N***, Green Leaves and Bust (Pablo Picasso)Category: Most Expensive Painting Auction House: Christie’s Price: $106.5 Million Pablo Picasso, perhaps one of the most influential artists of the 20 th century, created one of his legendary masterpieces, N***, Green Leaves and Bust that broke world record last year, becoming the most expensive painting to be sold at an auction. Offered by Christie’s this fabulous work of art went for a whopping $106.5 million and depicts Marie-Therese Walter, the well-known mistress of Picasso. The painting itself is said to be one of the artist’s finest creations, which was created at the height of his career. The N***, Green Leaves and Bust showcases a n*** Marie-Therese in a reclining position, while her renowned bust sculpture, crafted by Picasso himself is seen on a pedestal."

All these questions can be answered by the mind-blowing and truly fundamental theory of evolution."

Ron Hubbard, was an American pulp fiction author. He wrote in a wide variety of genres, including science fiction, fantasy, adventure fiction, aviation, travel, mystery, western and romance. He is perhaps best known for his self-help book, the #1 New York Times bestseller Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health (first published in 1950), and as the founder of the Church of Scientology. L. Ron Hubbard was a prolific writer; according to the church, his written teachings make up approximately 500,000 pages and 3,000 recorded lectures, totaling about 65 million words.

Thursday, October 04, 2012Janalen Samson Contributing Writer, Buddy TVAdd as Buddy TV Friend »Tweet Email I don't know about you, but I'm going to need to watch that again. In \"\"Remember the Time,\"\" Grey's Anatomy flashed back, filling in the pieces and answering the questions left unanswered in last week's \"\"Going Going Gone\"\". The non-traditional narrative structure worked beautifully, helping the viewer piece together bit by bit what happened in the aftermath of the fateful plane crash. The result was not so much a puzzle as a mosaic or perhaps and impressionistic painting. All those dots ... but when you step back ... wow. A masterpiece unfolds before your eyes. Before I get started in earnest, let me make three random comments. First, how much do I love Richard Webber? He has become the show's anchor and touchstone, a rock in times of trouble."

"text": "Science After 9,000 Years, Oldest Playable Flute Is Heard Again By HENRY FOUNTAIN SEPT. 28, 1999Chinese archeologists have unearthed what is believed to be the oldest known playable musical instrument, a seven-holed flute fashioned 9,000 years ago from the hollow wing bone of a large bird. The instrument, about nine inches long, is the best preserved of six intact flutes found with fragments of about 30 others at Jiahu, a remarkably rich but little-known archeological site in the Yellow River valley in Henan Province in central China. Radiocarbon dating shows the site was occupied for 1,300 years beginning around 7000 B. C., during the early Neolithic period in China. Nine millennia after lips last touched it, the flute was played again and its tones analyzed. The seven holes produced a rough scale covering a modern octave, beginning close to the second A above middle C. There is evidence that the flute was tuned: a small hole drilled next to the seventh hole had the effect of raising that hole's tone from roughly G-sharp to A, completing the octave. ( To hear the flute on the Internet: http://www.nytimes.com/science. ) It is impossible to know what relationship, if any, the tones have to six- or seven-tone Chinese scales first documented 6,000 years later (the other intact flutes have five to eight holes, but are not playable because of their condition). But the fact that the playable flute had a carefully selected tone scale indicates that the Neolithic musicians may have been able to play more than single notes, but actual music. While fragments of what appear to be flutes made from animal bones have been found at much older Neanderthal sites, the Chinese instruments are the oldest ones that have remained intact."

He created a new model, known originally as the C-type, and then subsequently named the Prince Henry. This doorless four-seater is considered by notable motoring historians to be the first true sports car. The Prince Henry went on to become one of Vauxhall's most illustrious cars."

"text": "\"The cars : Vauxhall Cavalier Mk2 development story5 May 2017 Keith Adams Cavalier, Development story, The Rivals 46When the Cavalier Mk2 was launched in August 1981, Vauxhall hoped that it would increase its market share in the UK. It didn’t just manage to do that – it smashed all expectations and caught both Ford and Austin-Rover napping. The conservative-looking Mk2 was what every rep wanted – it looked good, drove well and could hold its own in the outside lane of the M1…Vauxhall’s new pragmatism Few would have predicted Vauxhall’s stunning turn-around in fortunes during the mid-1980s. A mere dozen years before the launch of the Cavalier Mk2 in August 1981, the UK’s iconic GM division had a shocking reputation in its home market for producing rusting cars that just didn’t stack up against the opposition from Ford and BMC. Its reputation for rust was well-founded, though, as the UK-designed products churned out of Luton really did seem to dissolve upon contact with the atmosphere – and, as Lancia in the UK will confirm, once this kind of negative reputation gets into the public consciousness, it’s almost impossible to shift. Despite that, the company fought on, and into the 1970s, Vauxhall’s started to recover strongly. The Viva proved a usefully popular Escort alternative and the Victor, now in Transcontinental FE guise and sharing a considerable amount of hardware with its German counterpart, the Opel Rekord, was developed into an excellent driver’s car – especially in VX4/90 guise. Taking aim at the Cortina However, like BL, GM needed a car to fight the Cortina head-on in the marketplace, and the FE-Series just seemed a little too large for that task. In 1975, and for Vauxhall traditionalists, the unthinkable happened: the Chevette and Cavalier Mk1 were announced, which despite their individual front-end styling, were little more than badge-engineered Opels. But both cars were built (or assembled, as was initially the case for the Cavalier) in the UK, and featured UK power in the form of the Viva’s 1256cc overhead valve four-pot."

Chances are that if you look out your window the leaves on the trees are beginning to change color and the weather is beginning to shift from stifling hot to something more manageable. Yes, fall is in the air -- but so is the unofficial start of flu season. To be clear, flu season never actually ends, but neither the media nor the American public tend to discuss it much once the number of reported flu cases tapers off. Unofficially, flu season runs from October through May, with the highest number of cases recorded between December and February. This means that we're just a matter of weeks from an expected jump in the number of reported cases of the flu. Yet there's quite a lot the American public probably doesn't know about flu season. Here are six facts about the 2016-2017 flu season that all Americans should acquaint themselves with.1. Influenza/pneumonia is the eighth-leading cause of death in the U. S. When the majority of Americans think about the flu, they envision a fever, a cough, a runny nose, and perhaps a few aches and pains. But for some Americans, the flu can be deadly."

It contains the control moment gyroscope (CMG) assemblies, electrical wiring, communications equipment, and two plasma contactors designed to neutralize the static electrical charge of the space station. Another objective of the Z1 truss was to serve as a temporary mounting position for the \"\"P6 truss and solar array\"\" until its relocation to the end of the P5 truss during STS-120. Though not a part of the main truss, the Z1 truss was the first permanent lattice-work structure for the ISS, very much like a girder, setting the stage for the future addition of the station's major trusses or backbones."

Confabulation is distinguished from lying as there is no intent to deceive and the person is unaware the information is false. Although individuals can present blatantly false information, confabulation can also seem to be coherent, internally consistent, and relatively normal. Individuals who confabulate present incorrect memories ranging from \"\"subtle alternations to bizarre fabrications\"\", and are generally very confident about their recollections, despite contradictory evidence. Most known causes of confabulation are caused by brain damage or dementias, such as alcoholism, aneurysm or Alzheimer's disease. Two distinct types of confabulation are often distinguished: spontaneous and provoked. Spontaneous, or primary, confabulations do not occur in response to a cue and seem to be involuntary. Spontaneous confabulation is relatively rare, may result from the interaction between frontal lobe pathology and organic amnesia, and is more common in cases of dementia."

"text": "\"Definition of Abrogation Monday To abrogate means to abolish, do away with, or annul, especially by authority. This is a key term in studying the Quran. There are some peaceful, tolerant verses in the Quran. But the violent, intolerant ones have abrogated them. The Quran itself explains what to do with conflicting verses. If two passages conflict, it says, the one written later is better than the one written earlier. The earlier passage has been abrogated by the later one. The bad news for non-Muslims is that almost all the peaceful passages were written earlier, and the intolerant, hateful, and violent ones were written later ( read more about this ). The two key abrogation passages in the Quran are these: 2:106 \"\"Whatever of Our revelations We repeal or cause to be forgotten, We will replace them with something superior or comparable.

At high combustion temperatures, the Nitrogen in the air can combine with the air fuel mixture to produce Oxides of Nitrogen–a key component of smog. To reduce combustion chamber temperatures, the EGR valve opens and sends in a ballast charge of exhaust. Because sending exhaust into the mixture at idle would choke the engine, this is usually done when the engine is running at higher RPMs where it can handle the incoming exhaust. The computer tells the EGR how much to open, based on engine temperature and RPMs. Then, it monitors how well the EGR actually performed. Every car maker performs the monitoring using a different method. Ford, for example, senses exhaust flow in front of and behind a restriction in the line between the EGR and the intake manifold. The Differential Pressure Feedback Exhaust sensor (DPFE) has a high failure rate. But don’t automatically assume the sensor is bad."

Get Started!Being a homeowner comes with many advantages, but it also means taking on a number of responsibilities. One of the most time-consuming responsibilities is lawn maintenance. This involves not only keeping grass watered and healthy, but ensuring that it gets trimmed regularly as well. In some cities, failure to care for one's lawn can actually result in the homeowner receiving a citation. Unfortunately, not all homeowners have the time and resources to care for a lawn. For this reason, many have turned to the option of installing artificial grass. National Install Turf Costs See Local Costs We are still gathering data for this location.

The facility is the oldest football stadium in the Big 12 Conference but was left largely neglected and enjoyed only modest renovations throughout its near-century of existence. With the resurgence of Cowboy football, sparked by the 2001 victory over the Oklahoma Sooners in the annual Bedlam Series game and the subsequent 2002 Houston Bowl season, interest grew for a major overhaul of Lewis Field. An ambitious fund-raising project for the renovation dubbed \"\"The Next Level\"\" became the flagship effort of the Oklahoma State athletic department. Officially, the capacity is 56,790.

"text": "Farmer Chris Answers Your FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONSWhat kind of sod do I need for my yard? If your yard is more than 50% shady, Fescue or Zoysia is recommended. If your yard is more than 50% sunny, Bermuda or Zoysia is recommended. If your yard is about 50% sunny and 50% shady, then you may choose whatever type of grass best suits your maintenance preferences. Bermuda requires less maintenance than either Fescue or Zoysia grasses, which both do best with regular mowing, watering, and fertilizing. How much sod will I need for my yard? In order to determine the amount of sod you will need, measure the square footage (the length of the area in feet, multiplied by the width of the area, in feet), and then divide by 9 (this gives you the square yardage). A pallet provides 50 square yards of sod cut in slabs, and a roll of sod provides 25 square yards of sod cut into one long slab. What is the biggest mistake people make in purchasing their sod? Many of our customers have confessed to initially choosing to purchase the cheapest grass they could find."

"text": "Cost of Lawn and Artificial Turf Find out the cost to have grass installed and maintained by a professional By Genevieve Schmidtretweet Sod lawns cost about $3.50 per square foot, more than hydroseed but less than artificial turf. Cost of lawn installation and maintenance Installation costs per square foot: Hydroseed: $.50-1.00Sod: $3.50Artificial turf: $8-$12Backyard putting greens: $14Sprinkler systems for turf: $2Maintenance costs: Mowing and edging: $30-$40 per visit for small suburban lots Aeration and overseeding: $40-$60 per 1000 square feet Fertilizing and weed control: $60 for an average application Hand-seeding, hydroseeding, sod, and artificial turf vary greatly in both the initial installation cost and the ongoing cost to maintain. Learn more about the cost differences between these installation methods, both initially and over time. Hand-seeding Installation: A hand-seeded lawn is the cheapest type of lawn to install, and can often be done by the homeowner. While a hand-seeded lawn will need to have the soil prepared with topsoil and compost, as well as a sprinkler system and edging installed, the actual cost of seed and the labor to sow it is minimal. The downside to installing a seeded lawn is that you need to keep it thoroughly watered for the first eight weeks so the lawn can germinate. In addition, a hand-seeded lawn has a lower success rate than hydroseed or sod because there is very little room for error in terms of soil temperature, water, etc. This means you may need to sow seed multiple times before you have the thick lawn you imagined. Weed seeds also sprout easily in any kind of seeded lawn, and that takes time and money to fix. Maintenance: Once your lawn is established and healthy, a seeded lawn will be more robust and will have fewer disease issues than will a sod lawn."

While suitable for AFL play in the 1960s, the \"\"Rockpile\"\" (as the stadium came to be nicknamed), was in disrepair, in a neighborhood increasingly subject to white flight and urban decay, and, with a capacity of under 47,000, undersized for a National Football League team. The league mandate instituted after the AFL–NFL merger of 1970 dictated a minimum of 50,000 seats. In early 1971, owner Ralph Wilson was exploring options to relocate the team, possibly to Seattle, [6] [7] [8] with other cities such as Memphis and Tampa soon expressing interest as well. [ 9] The potential loss of the team hastened the stadium project [10] and Rich Stadium opened in 1973. [ 11] The location and construction of the stadium in Erie County were the source of years of litigation, [12] which ended with a financial settlement for a developer who had planned to erect a domed stadium in Lancaster.

( Getty Thinkstock)Naturally, grass came first, but since 1970 it has been largely replaced on playing fields by synthetic turf products. The primary reasons for using synthetic turf are player comfort and safety. What is Synthetic Turf? Synthetic grass carpet, the first generation synthetic turf pitch, was constructed of polypropylene and is officially known as Astro Turf. It was less expensive and more comfortable than natural grass, offering less risk of player injury. The second generation of synthetic grass had widely spaced, longer tufts that provided a greater amount of firmness and stability. Its construction gave players better ball control, especially in field hockey. Third generation, or 3G, synthetic turf pitch far exceeds earlier generations in performance and durability. Why Use 3G?3G pitch is far more realistic than first-generation turf pitch and safer than natural grass."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Modern artificial turf Side view of artificial turf Artificial turf for home use for sale Artificial turf is a surface of synthetic fibers made to look like natural grass. It is most often used in arenas for sports that were originally or are normally played on grass. However, it is now being used on residential lawns and commercial applications as well. The main reason is maintenance—artificial turf stands up to heavy use, such as in sports, and requires no irrigation or trimming. Domed, covered, and partially covered stadiums may require artificial turf because of the difficulty of getting grass enough sunlight to stay healthy. Artificial turf does have its downside, however: limited life, periodic cleaning requirements, petroleum use, toxic chemicals from infill, and heightened health and safety concerns. Artificial turf first gained substantial attention in the 1960s, when it was used in the newly constructed Astrodome. The specific product used was developed by Monsanto and called Astro Turf; this term since then became a generic trademark for any artificial turf throughout the late 20th century. Astro Turf remains a registered trademark but is no longer owned by Monsanto. The first generation turf systems (i.e., short-pile fibers without infill) of the 1960s have been largely replaced by the second generation and third generation turf systems."

Most artificial turf companies charge about the same for installation and material. It was performance and durability that separated it from the rest. For an outdoor practice green that will accept pitch shots and putt realistically, we like Southwest’s polypropylene turf, containing round silica sand that has been worked into the fibers to provide a realistic look and a pure putting experience. Plus, the putting speed can be adjusted, sped up by removing some sand, slowed down by adding a bit. With routine grooming, Southwest’s synthetic turf should last for 10 years or longer without appreciable degradation because of weather."

When opened, it was named the Harris County Domed Stadium and was nicknamed the \"\" Eighth Wonder of the World \"\". [ 5]After the original natural grass playing surface died, the Astrodome became the first major sports venue to install artificial turf, which became known as Astro Turf. In another technological first, the Astrodome featured the \"\"Astrolite\"\", which was the first animated scoreboard. The Astrodome was renovated in 1988, expanding seating and altering many original features."

The A's left for Oakland after the 1967 season and were replaced by the expansion Kansas City Royals in 1969. Municipal Stadium, built in 1923 and mostly rebuilt in 1955, seated approximately 35,000 for football. As part of the AFL–NFL merger announced in 1966, NFL stadiums would be required to seat no fewer than 50,000 people. The City of Kansas City was unable to find a suitable location for a new stadium, so Jackson County stepped in and offered a location on the eastern edge of Kansas City near the interchange of Interstate 70 and Interstate 435."

But their ballpark, known for its sloped shape and catwalks, continues to be a problem. It’s been that way from the beginning. As early as 1983, the city of St. Petersburg was mulling over designs for a stadium that they wanted to build to lure Major League Baseball to the Tampa Bay area. They ended up choosing one proposed by a fairly new and relatively unknown sport design firm based in Kansas City. HOK Sport would go on to change the landscape of ballpark design in 1992 with the opening of Camden Yards in Baltimore, but six years prior their architects were primarily responsible for the blueprints of the multi-purpose stadium that contractor Huber, Hunt & Nichols began to build near the St. Pete waterfront. But HOK Sport can’t be totally faulted for the design. They give the city what it wanted, and the city was basing what they wanted on the prevailing trends of the time."

The Burnett donation constituted the egg for TCU's endowment. One condition of the Burnett donation was that a portion of it would be used for the construction of a new library, and it was decided to build the Mary Couts Burnett Library where the school's athletic field, Clark Field, was then located. The removal of Clark Field necessitated the construction of a new field for athletic competition, especially in the sport of football. TCU played its first season of football in 1896, and since then had built a reputation of excellence garnering national attention, and joined the Southwest Conference in 1923."

"text": "Impact of Eclipses Michelle Asks:“I was wondering about the effects of an eclipse. I understand that a Solar Eclipse will effect you for 1 year and a lunar eclipse up to 6 months. What happens if the eclipse occurs conjunct one of your natal planets? I have the solar eclipse coming up conjunct my Venus in the 7th house. I’m confused about how these energies play out. What about a lunar eclipse opposite Pluto? Is this a sure sign of trouble to come?”Kevin Answers: Michelle,Thanks for your very timely question! I’m going to start out with a little background information on eclipses, and then talk a bit about how we can interpret them. Eclipses are very important events astrologically, and yet they are also very misunderstood (much like the Moon’s Nodes, which just happen to be the transiting eclipse points...). Most people think that eclipses are very rare events, but actually we have two sets of eclipses every year, or one set of eclipses every five and a half months or so."

The Nodes Know The Moon's Nodes are very confusing since they are not \"\"planets,\"\" yet they are almost treated if they are. The Nodes have many different names with slightly different meanings. There is the North Node, the South Node, the True Node, the Mean Node, the Lunar Node, the Moon's Node, etc. After a while, these terms begin to make some sense, but not without practice and ongoing use. Let's start with the terms, North Node and South Node. These are points calculated based on where the Moon's transit crosses the ecliptic of the North and South Latitudes as it travels around the Earth, but in relation to the Sun's placement. These two Nodes always (ALWAYS) travel in pairs. The North Node is always exactly opposite of the South Node. For the sake of argument, we will try to keep this as basic as possible."

[ 1] The technical name is the perigee syzygy of the Earth–Moon–Sun system or more simply full (or new) Moon at perigee. [ a] The term supermoon is astrological in origin and has no precise astronomical definition. [ 2]The real association of the Moon with both oceanic and crustal tides has led to claims that the supermoon phenomenon may be associated with increased risk of events like earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, but no such link has been found. [ 3]The opposite phenomenon, an apogee syzygy, has been called a micromoon, [4] though this term is not as widespread as supermoon.

But hold on to your emotionally grounding crystals, because in January 2018, we'll experience two full moons. So, what does two full moons in a month mean for your sign? With one moon in Cancer and the other in Leo opposing the sun in Capricorn and Aquarius respectively, the stars are aligning for a set and spike. Basically, buy a planner. And maybe even an easel. ( I'll explain in a second. ) January is bookended by full moons, the first — the Full Wolf Moon — appearing on Jan. 1 and the second — a Super Blue Blood Moon — rising on the last day of the month. Because January's second full moon is absent of a name (it's not common enough to have one), astronomers refer to it as \"\"blue. \"\""

Then, by the modern scientific technology, we know that April 17 (Sat. ), 6 B. C. was the true birthday when Jesus Christ was really born in the earth. Let's celebrate both the Easter and the true birthday of Jesus Christ (April 17) among all the Christians all over the world every year, too!Before taking baptism at the Church of Latter-Day Saint of Jesus Christ many years ago, I took lessons from the missionaries, too. They told me that Jesus Christ was born in Bethlehem in the spring when the sheep were grazed in the Israeli area in fact. Since the time of his true birthday wasn't clear until now, I just tell it to other people that the Christmas is December 25. As for the date of December 25, Savior Mithra of Mithraeum, which was very popular in Babylonia area for a long time ago, was born at the day. It is said that the birthday of Mithra was borrowed by the Roman Catholic Churches in the age when the accurate birthday of Jesus Christ wasn't clear for a long time ago. Then, after medieval times came, the Christmas of December 25 became very popular around the Catholics and became celebrated very splendidly. ( The day of the winter solstice in the old days was about December 25 because \"\"the lunar calendar\"\" was adopted and it was 28 days in one month long ago."

"text": "\"Difference Between Saturn and Jupiter Posted on June 4, 2011 by koshal Last updated on: February 11, 2015Saturn vs Jupiter Saturn and Jupiter are two planets in our solar system that have plenty of differences between them when it comes to their nature and characteristics. Both the planets are in the outer solar system. Saturn is the sixth planet from the sun whereas Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun. As a matter of fact, both Saturn and Jupiter are gas giants made of mainly hydrogen and helium and not a favorable atmosphere for life, unlike Earth. This is due to the fact that both are situated at a greater distance from the Sun. Other than this fact, there are more interesting facts about both of these planets. More about Saturn Saturn is the second largest planet in our solar system. As a matter of fact, the planet of Saturn is situated at a distance of about 1, 433, 000, 000 km from the Sun. The time taken to orbit the Sun in the case of Saturn is roughly 30 years (10, 759 days). The atmosphere of Saturn is about 96% hydrogen and 4% of helium."

Two of which are Surya Grahan (Solar Eclipse), and the other two, Chandra Grahan (Lunar Eclipse). Before stepping into the details, let’s have a quick look as in what does a grahan or eclipse means in solar & a lunar forms in Astrology & otherwise. What Is Grahan? Whenever a celestial body gets covered partially or completely with another celestial body, that particular event is known as eclipse or grahan. If we talk in terms of Astronomy, a grahan or eclipse happen when the Sun, Moon and Earth are aligned and either Earth or Moon comes between the other two planets. These occurrences give birth to two types of eclipses; Solar Eclipse (Surya Grahan) & Lunar Eclipse (Chandra Grahan). Chandra Grahan 2017: When The Moon Gets Dark Surya Grahan 2017: Earth Without A Sun Surya Grahan : When the moon is directly intercepting the Earth & the Sun, a solar eclipse is in tandem. There is a connecting force in play between the Moon & the Sun. During this rare state, the Sun gets completely cloaked off by the Moon."

The only certain biographical datum concerning Hipparchus is his birthplace, Nicaea, in northwestern Asia Minor. This is attested by several ancient sources 1 and by Nicaean coins from the second and third centuries of the Christian era that depict a seated man contemplating a globe, with the legend IIIIIAPXOΣ. His scientific activity is dated by a number of his astronomical observations quoted in Ptolemy’s Almagest. The earliest observation indubitably made by Hipparchus himself is of the autumnal equinox of 26/27 September 147 b.c 2 The latest is of a lunar position on 7 July 127 b.c. 3 Ptolemy reports a series of observations of autumnal and vernal equinoxes taken from Hipparchus, ranging from 162 to 128 b.c., but it is not clear whether the earliest in the series had been made by Hipparchus himself or were taken from others; Ptolemy says only that “they seemed to Hipparchus to have been accurately observed.” We can say, then, that Hipparchus’ activity extended over the third quarter of the second century b.c., and may have begun somewhat earlier."

I know there is the Daily horoscope and the chinese zodiac. But Which are the other ones? I went to a store once and they had one for a day of the month but it was different you were like a luna or something like that? Answer by homesick alien Natal Solar Lunar Synastry Combined Transit Secondary progresion Answer by Mia The “daily horoscope” is the child of something called sun sign astrology. It’s intention was to make astrology, which is a very complex discipline, more accessible and less intimidating to the masses. Kind of like an easy introduction to astrology. Unfortunately, it has done as much damage to astrolgy as it has done good. At any rate, sun sign astrology is a characterization and should not be taken too seriously."

Loosely applied to: (a) any inharmonious aspect to a planet, or (b) to any aspect, particularly the conjunction, parallel, square or opposition, to a malefic planet. Also by some authorities applied to a mundane or zodiacal parallel with, or when, besieged by both Infortunes (q.v.).

"text": "All About Eclipses: A Guide for Coping with Them Share By Susan Miller Eclipses are dramatic “wild cards” in our horoscopes. They are some of the most dramatic tools that the universe uses to get us to pay attention to areas in our life that need to change. They uproot us, surprise us, and get us moving. They shake us out of our feelings of compliancy so that we can move from one level of maturity to another, to a higher plane, and they work very rapidly. Eclipses want us to change, and change we do!Each year, you might want to pay special attention to the number and sign of the eclipses that are due to arrive and in what houses and degree they fall. Usually we have four eclipses in one year. In 2011 we had six, and there was one additional eclipse just ten days prior to the start of that year, so in effect, we had seven eclipses within a very short period of time. Years like that are hard, because they demand so many adjustments in a very tiny time period. As you scroll down you will see specific points that you can keep in mind when dealing with eclipses. I have developed this list by watching them closely each year and keeping notes of what happened to people I know."

Since Rahu and Ketu are believed to have a strong impact on our lives, they are denoted as mathematical points while making calculations in Vedic Astrology. When Moon moves from South to North in its orbit and crosses Sun's path - the incision point is called Rahu or Dragon's Head. When Moon transits towards South and crosses the Sun's path – the incision point is called Ketu or Dragon's Tail. This point is at 180 degree distance from the previously mentioned incision point (Rahu). In Vedic Astrology, Rahu and Ketu are given high importance. But why? Why are these incision points considered so important?"

Most American school children know Ben was the first Postmaster General and publisher of Poor Richard’s Almanak, as well as the discoverer of electricity and inventor of bifocals. But few Americans realize Ben was the founder of the Masonic Lodge in the colonies and he used the Mason organization to help build support for the American Revolution (Nine signers of the Declaration of Independence are known to have been Masons. George Washington was a Mason and 35 of his generals were also members of the Masons. Washington even took his presidential oath of office with his hand on a bible borrowed from the New York Masonic Lodge. ) Benjamin Franklin and just about every single other Colonial Mason believed in God (“Providence”) and astrology. Ben Franklin was Colonial America’s greatest astrologer ( click here for proof Benjamin Franklin was an astrologer ). But Ben’s astrology was very different from the Traditional or Uranian Astrology being pushed these days by the Horoscope columnists and the likes of ISAR, IFAN and the NCGR.

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search This article is about an additional full moon that appears in a subdivision of a year. For other uses, see Blue Moon (disambiguation). Blue moon of the December 2009 lunar eclipse A blue moon is an additional full moon that appears in a subdivision of a year: either the third of four full moons in a season, or a second full moon in a month of the common calendar. The phrase has nothing to do with the actual color of the moon, although a literal \"\"blue moon\"\" (the moon appearing with a tinge of blue) may occur in certain atmospheric conditions: e.g., if volcanic eruptions or fires leave particles in the atmosphere of just the right size to preferentially scatter red light. [ 1]Contents [ hide ]1 Definition2 Origin of the term3 Maine Farmers' Almanac blue moons3.1 Sky and Telescope calendar misinterpretation4 Visibly blue moon5 Blue moons between 2009 and 20215.1 Seasonal5.2 Calendar6 Popular culture6.1 Music6.2 Books6.3 Films and television6.4 Video Games7 See also8 References9 External links Definition [ edit]Main article: Intercalary month The term has traditionally referred to an \"\"extra\"\" full moon, where a year which normally has 12 full moons has 13 instead. The \"\"blue moon\"\" reference is applied to the third full moon in a season with four full moons, [2] thus correcting the timing of the last month of a season that would have otherwise been expected too early. This happens every two to three years (seven times in the Metonic cycle of 19 years). [ 3] The March 1946 issue of Sky & Telescope misinterpreted the traditional definition, which led to the modern colloquial misunderstanding that a blue moon is a second full moon in a single solar calendar month with no seasonal link. Owing to the rarity of a blue moon, the term \"\"blue moon\"\" is used colloquially to mean a rare event, as in the phrase \"\"once in a blue moon\"\". [ 4] [5]One lunation (an average lunar cycle) is 29.53 days."

[ 11]Database references SIMBAD data Delta Capricorni ( δ Capricorni, abbreviated Del Cap, δ Cap) is a multiple star system approximately 39 light-years away in the constellation of Capricornus (the Sea Goat ). The primary star in the system is a white giant and the combined light of its members makes it the brightest star within the constellation. The system consists of an eclipsing binary, [12] designated Delta Capricorni A, and two companion stars, B and C. [13] A's two components are themselves designated Delta Capricorni Aa (also named Deneb Algedi [14]) and Ab. Because it is near the ecliptic, Delta Capricorni can be occulted by the Moon, and also (rarely) by planets. [ citation needed]Contents1 Namenclature2 Observational history3 Stellar system4 In culture5 See also6 References7 Further reading8 External links Namenclature [ edit]δ Capricorni ( Latinised to Delta Capricorni) is the system's Bayer designation. The designations of the three constituents as Delta Capricorni A, B and C, and those of A's components - Delta Capricorni Aa and Ab - derive from the convention used by the Washington Multiplicity Catalog (WMC) for multiple star systems, and adopted by the International Astronomical Union (IAU). [ 15]The system bore the traditional names Deneb Algedi, derived from the Arabic ذنب الجدي ( ðanab al-jady ), meaning \"\"the tail of the goat\"\", referring to the fishlike tail of the celestial sea-goat Capricorn, and Scheddi. [ 16] [17] In 2016, the International Astronomical Union organized a Working Group on Star Names (WGSN) [18] to catalogue and standardize proper names for stars. The WGSN approved the name Deneb Algedi for the component Delta Capricornii Aa on February 1, 2017 and it is now so included in the List of IAU-approved Star Names. ["

Birds prepare for bed; the sky darkens in the middle of the day. It seems as though something dreadful is about to happen. Over the years, experience has shown us that old things come to an end (or are overthrown!) under a solar eclipse and a new beginning can be made. The effect on the world of eclipses has been seen to be generally felt for some six months, until the next eclipse then restructures the cosmic energies. Astrologically, solar eclipses signify the fall of the mighty (or at least, they're in big trouble!). Depending where in the zodiac the eclipse occurs, stress is always placed on the matters governed by that sign, or sector of the zodiac. A powerful Solar Eclipse can create massive havoc, in accordance with other aspects in the heavens at the time, as can be clearly seen by the trail of earthquakes and other disasters associated with the Solar Eclipse and Grand Cross of August 1999. At a more personal level, the solar eclipse can have a big effect on our personal lives when it occurs in conjunction with one of our natal planets, especially our natal Sun, Moon, or Ruling Planet."

The zodiac is considered to be made up of 12 separate signs, but from another perspective it is comprised of 6 interconnected force-fields or polarities. Leo and Aquarius form one suchpolarity. So in addition to being two distinct signs, they also form two halves of one energy field. One of the main functions of the Leo-Aquarius energy field is to stimulate the development of \"\"consciousness. \"\" And the zodiac does not really form the boundary of the horoscope, or of our solar system. The zodiac is not an enclosed field: each of the 12 signs transmits other cosmic energies into our system. These energies come from cosmic centers which are affiliated with our own sun."

What happens if the eclipse occurs conjunct one of your natal planets? I have the solar eclipse coming up conjunct my Venus in the 7th house. I’m confused about how these energies play out. What about a lunar eclipse opposite Pluto? Is this a sure sign of trouble to come?”Kevin Answers: Michelle,Thanks for your very timely question! I’m going to start out with a little background information on eclipses, and then talk a bit about how we can interpret them. Eclipses are very important events astrologically, and yet they are also very misunderstood (much like the Moon’s Nodes, which just happen to be the transiting eclipse points...). Most people think that eclipses are very rare events, but actually we have two sets of eclipses every year, or one set of eclipses every five and a half months or so."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Conjunction (astronomy and astrology))navigation search A conjunction of Mercury and Venus appears above the Moon, as viewed from the Paranal Observatory in northern Chile. In astronomy, a conjunction occurs when two astronomical objects or spacecraft have either the same right ascension or the same ecliptic longitude, usually as observed from Earth. [ 1] [2] The astronomical symbol for conjunction is ☌ (in Unicode U+260C) and handwritten. The conjunction symbol is not used in modern astronomy. It continues to be used in astrology. When two objects always appear close to the ecliptic —such as two planets, the Moon and a planet, or the Sun and a planet—this fact implies an apparent close approach between the objects as seen on the sky. A related word, appulse, is the minimum apparent separation on the sky of two astronomical objects. [ 3]Conjunctions involve either two objects in the Solar System or one object in the Solar System and a more distant object, such as a star. A conjunction is an apparent phenomenon caused by the observer's perspective: the two objects involved are not actually close to one another in space. Conjunctions between two bright objects close to the ecliptic, such as two bright planets, can be seen with the naked eye."

But few Americans realize Ben was the founder of the Masonic Lodge in the colonies and he used the Mason organization to help build support for the American Revolution (Nine signers of the Declaration of Independence are known to have been Masons. George Washington was a Mason and 35 of his generals were also members of the Masons. Washington even took his presidential oath of office with his hand on a bible borrowed from the New York Masonic Lodge. ) Benjamin Franklin and just about every single other Colonial Mason believed in God (“Providence”) and astrology.

"text": "\"Birthday Months: Phases of the Moon and Astrological Meanings By Allison De Meulder The phases of the moon, also known as lunar phases, are the appearance of the moon as it rotates around the Earth. When a person looks in the sky, the look of the moon is affected by how much of it is illuminated by the sun. This is determined by the moons position between the sun and the Earth at a specific phase of its rotation. There are eight of these moon phases and they follow a specific order. These phases are, the new moon, the waxing crescent moon, first quarter, waxing gibbous, full, waning gibbous, third quarter, and waning crescent. The phases of the moon have inspired folklore and the imagination for centuries. Its different phases have been associated with everything from fertility to crops. For some people, they believe that the lunar phase that occurred on the day that they were born also affects who they are as a person. For example, people born under a new moon may be more impulsive while a person who is politically radical may be born under the last quarter moon. New Moon The new moon phase is the first phase of the moon."

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

To the Maya of Mesoamerica, this ancient science reflected order in the universe and the gods' place in it. This order reflected an inherent harmony present in their general theological view of the universe. To the Mayans, capturing the essence of time was of the utmost importance. In their cosmology, space and time were inevitably intertwined, as is evidenced by their complex calendar system that combines spatial attributes of the universe, such as animals and plants, with temporal movements of astronomical objects. Although the Mayans never invented water clocks or other specific time-keeping devices, they used the sky as a method of measuring the passage of time. The Mayans believed that celestial events were indicative of communication with the gods. Specific astronomical objects represented certain deities, whose divine lives were portrayed in the daily, monthly, and yearly changes in their appearance. The religious aspect of astronomy was also taken one step further: to astrology. The movement of constellations and other objects across the sky represented a connection between celestial events and human affairs."

Instead of the Moon entirely blocking out the light of the Sun which occurs at a total eclipse, the smaller apparent diameter of the Moon will block out the centre of the Sun, leaving a thin ring of brilliant light – a ring of fire. Annular eclipses always make me think that the cosmos is exclaiming, OH! This particular eclipse will be visible across South America and Western Africa. It is said that the path of the eclipse shows the areas affected in mundane astrology. In our own personal charts, sometimes with eclipses, it can be helpful to look back to those that were in the same ‘family’. This eclipse ‘family’ comes from Saros Series 140 – the last of which was in February 1999. The next will be in 2035. The eclipse takes place at the New Moon in Pisces, typically a time of new starts, especially when it comes to spirituality, loss, imaginative pursuits and charitable enterprises. Pisces is the sign of unity, where ego dissolves and you become one with the universe."

"text": "\"Birthday Months: Phases of the Moon and Astrological Meanings By Allison De Meulder The phases of the moon, also known as lunar phases, are the appearance of the moon as it rotates around the Earth. When a person looks in the sky, the look of the moon is affected by how much of it is illuminated by the sun. This is determined by the moons position between the sun and the Earth at a specific phase of its rotation. There are eight of these moon phases and they follow a specific order. These phases are, the new moon, the waxing crescent moon, first quarter, waxing gibbous, full, waning gibbous, third quarter, and waning crescent. The phases of the moon have inspired folklore and the imagination for centuries. Its different phases have been associated with everything from fertility to crops. For some people, they believe that the lunar phase that occurred on the day that they were born also affects who they are as a person. For example, people born under a new moon may be more impulsive while a person who is politically radical may be born under the last quarter moon. New Moon The new moon phase is the first phase of the moon."

The term literally means a man of vast power, and nobility, and it is used strictly for the royal families of the Middle East. The title carries the meaning leader, elder, or noble, especially in the Arabian Peninsula within the Tribes of Arabia, where shaikh became a traditional title of a Bedouin tribal leader in recent centuries. Due to the cultural impact of Arab civilization, and especially through the spread of Islam, the word has gained currency as a religious term or general honorific in many other parts of the world as well, notably in Muslim cultures in Africa and Asia. [ citation needed]Sufi term [ edit]In Islamic Sufism, the word Shaikh is used to represent a wali who initiates a particular tariqa which leads to Muhammad, although many saints have this title added before their names out of respect from their followers. One prominent example is Shaikh Abdul Qadir Jilani, who initiated the Qadiriyya order which relies strongly upon adherence to the fundamentals of Islam. ["

"text": "Gemini Dates of Birth The astrologists divide a year is into 12 periods, during each period the sun being in a constellation area. So everyone has a corresponding zodiacal sign according to the period his / her birthday lies in. The 12 signs are Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces. People believe that different signs of the zodiac present different characteristics and talents. The Zodiac sign of Gemini represents the placement in the sky where the sun was during the time of birth and, in the case of Gemini, influences people who were born between the dates of May 22 - June 21. The Zodiac sign of Gemini is ruled by Mercury, one of the planets in the Solar system. The planet Mercury rules over the gemstone, or birthstone Pearl. The Pearl has its own unique properties relating to color, crystalline structure, character and abilities. The Pearl gemstone, or birthstone assigned to Gemini is believed to influence both positive and negative personality traits and characteristics of those born under the astrological sign of Gemini.

"text": "The Ancient Egyptian Contributions In Modern Medicine June 19, 2010 Eman Nabih Health, History, Who Discovered? 1 comment The Nile river is known almost universally by historians as the cradle of medicine because it passes through the great region of Egypt. Egypt greatly contributed to the western civilization. Their knowledge was far superior to any previous civilization, and many civilizations to come. One of their greatest achievements was in the field of medicine because they replaced myth with medical fact, this laid the foundations for modern medical practice. They discovered the cause of various illnesses and developed a cure. They practiced both medical and spiritual healing so the worlds of religion and science could coexist. With the discoveries of several papyrus’, we are learning more and more about their knowledge of the human anatomy. The literature discovered by archaeologists dates back to over 7000 years ago. In the early Egyptian times, medicine was practiced most often by priests, not doctors or physicians."

Heinrich Himmler was born in 1900 and died in 1945. Heinrich Himmler was to become one of the most feared men in Nazi Germany and Europe once World War Two broke out. As head of the SS, he had ultimate responsibility of internal security in Nazi Germany (as was seen in the Night of the Long Knives) and was associated with helping to organise the Final Solution though Reinhard Heydrich had a major input into the organisation of the Holocaust. Himmler was born in Munich, the son of a Roman Catholic teacher. He was old enough to serve in the German Army in 1918 and saw out the last days of World War One. After the war, he became a salesman for a fertiliser company. He joined the Nazi Party in 1923 and quickly developed a reputation for thoroughness and efficiency."

"text": "The Spiritual Meanings of Different Colors Astrology is an ancient study that uses positions of the sun, moon, stars and planets to predict a person’s personality and future. Often confused with “astronomy,” which is a study of the universe, astrology is the study of the how the universe affects humans. Astrology is based on the positions of the planets specific to the day you were born. Sometimes astrology is described as a pseudoscience because its’ discovery was not based on scientific methods. Supporters of astrology believe in a spiritual sense each life can find purpose through study of the stars. Many believe that assistance and consultation in a persons’ daily life using stars, planets, the Earth’s moon and sun. Astrologers use the constellations we call the zodiac, for twelve astrological signs:1. Aries/Ram 2. Taurus the Bull 3. Gemini the Twins 4."

Credit: NASABecoming an astronaut doesn't just happen overnight. It takes many years of education and experience to meet the basic qualifications. Many people aren't accepted on the first try, either, requiring them to learn more to be better prepared for the next try. Even then, only a small percentage of applicants become astronaut candidates, making it a hard job to get. \"\" The fact that I applied to become an astronaut 15 times has not been lost on my friends, followers, or fans,\"\" wrote retired astronaut Clay Anderson in his biography, “The Ordinary Spaceman,” as quoted in Popular Mechanics. \"\" Jokes and snide remarks have hinged upon the ugly truth that on 14 of those 15 attempts I was a complete and abysmal failure. As a matter of fact, there's a NASA public service announcement highlighting how it took me 15 tries. I like to cling to the reality that I can always say 'better late than never,' but at this point it's all academic. \"\" Error setting up player: Invalid license key This article focuses on the selection process for NASA, which applies to American citizens."

From the poignant to the almost comically mundane, here’s what the Apollo 11 astronauts left behind on the Moon when they lifted off on July 21, 1969. The descent stage of the Eagle lunar landing module still rests where it settled in the Sea of Tranquility, with a plaque attached to one leg proclaiming “ Here men from the planet Earth first set foot upon the Moon. July1969, A. D. We came in peace for all mankind. ”A golden replica of an olive branch underscores the “we come in peace” point. Nearby, an aluminum capsule holds a tiny silicon disc containing messages from four U. S. presidents and 73 other heads of state, etched in microscopic lettering. The plaque affixed to the Eagle lander bears the signatures of all three astronauts and Richard Nixon. Those are the official markers."

Landing on the moon was fraught with danger. This doesn't mean that the astronauts lost their sense of adventure (or humor). One famous example was the time astronaut Alan Shepard decided to play a round of golf... on the moon... Using a soil sampler, outfitted with a 6-iron head, Shepard hit two golf balls. He was heard to say that the second shot went \"\"miles and miles\"\". The original golf club was returned to Earth and now resides in a museum. However, no authentic replica of this historic artifact has been available, until now... Artifactory brings you this precision replica of the Apollo 14 Lunar Golf Club, recreated from a direct study of the original artifact. Each replica is recreated in machined and cast aluminum with plastic components, exactly like the real one! A lunar surface display base is included."

Watch the You Tube version of this website You might think that astronauts are weightless because they are far from the Earth. So you might ask, \"\"What height above the Earth must astronauts reach to achieve weightlessness?\"\" But it's not any particular height or altitude that makes them weightless. Gravity is almost as strong at the height of the International Space Station as on the surface of the Earth -- only about 10 percent weaker. It's not the height, but the motion of the spacecraft that causes weightlessness. Any object that is falling freely is weightless, no matter where it happens to be. This can be the International Space Station at a height of 200 miles, a NASA reduced-gravity airplane at a height of several thousand feet, a drop tower at several hundred feet, or you jumping off a chair at 3 feet. To answer the question, a spacecraft becomes weightless when the engines are shut off, and it is fall ing freely.

At the time it consisted of only about 8,000 employees and an annual budget of $100 million. In addition to a small headquarters staff in Washington that directed operations, NASA had at the time three major research laboratories inherited from the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics-the Langley Aeronautical Laboratory established in 1918, the Ames Aeronautical Laboratory activated near San Francisco in 1940, and the Lewis Flight Propulsion Laboratory built at Cleveland, Ohio, in 1941-and two small test facilities, one for high-speed flight research at Muroc Dry Lake in the high desert of California and one for sounding rockets at Wallops Island, Virginia. It soon added several other government research organizations.11 Oct. 1958 Pioneer I: First NASA launch.7 Nov. 1958 NASA research pilot John Mc Kay made the last flight in the X-1E, the final model flown of the X-1 series. The various models of the X-1, together with the D-558-I and -II, the X-2, X-3, X-4, X-5, and XF-92A, provided data to correlate test results from the slotted throat wind tunnel at the Langley Aeronautical Laboratory (now NASA's Langley Research Center) with actual flight values. Together, results of flight research and wind tunnel testing enabled the U. S. aeronautical community to solve many of the problems that occur in the transonic speed range (0.7 to 1.3 times the speed of sound). The flight research investigated flight loads, buffeting, aeroelastic effects, pitch-up, instability, longitudinal control, and the effects of wing sweep, contributing to design principles that enabled reliable and routine flight of such aircraft as the century series of fighters (F-100, F-102, F-104, etc.). It contributed equally to the development of all commercial transport aircraft from the mid-1950s to the present.6 Dec. 1958 The United States launched Pioneer 3 , the first U. S. satellite to ascend to an altitude of 63,580 miles.18 Dec. 1958 An Air Force Atlas booster placed into orbit a communications relay satellite, PROJECT SCORE or the \"\"talking atlas.\"\" A total of 8,750 pounds was placed in orbit, of which 150 pounds was the payload. On 19 Dec. President Eisenhower's Christmas message was beamed from the PROJECT SCORE satellite in orbit, the first voice sent from space.17 Feb. 1959 The United States launched Vanguard 2 , the first successful launch of this principal IGY scientific satellite.28 Feb. 1959 The liquid-hydrogen Thor first stage, and an Agena upper stage, both originally developed by the U. S. Air Force, were used by NASA to launch Discoverer 1, a reconnaissance satellite for the Air Force on 28 Feb.3 Mar. 1959 The United States sent Pioneer 4 to the Moon, successfully making the first U. S. lunar flyby.9 Apr. 1959 After a two month selection process, on this date NASA unveiled the Mercury astronaut corps."

"text": "\"National Aeronautics and Space Administration Chronology of Selected Highlights in the First 100 American Spaceflights, 1961-1995May 5, 1961: Freedom 7, the first piloted Mercury spacecraft (No. 7) carrying Astronaut Alan B. Shepard, Jr., was launched from Cape Canaveral by Mercury Redstone (MR3) launch vehicle, to an altitude of 115 nautical miles and a range of 302 miles. It was the first American space flight involving human beings. Shepard demonstrated that individuals can control a vehicle during weightlessness and high G stresses, and significant scientific biomedical data were acquired. He reached a speed of 5,100 miles per hour and his flight lasted 14.8 minutes. Feb. 20, 1962: John Glenn became the first American to circle the Earth, making three orbits in his Friendship 7 Mercury spacecraft. Despite some problems with spacecraft¾Glenn flew parts of the last two orbits manually because of an autopilot failure and left his normally jettisoned retrorocket pack attached to his capsule during reentry because of a loose heat shield¾this flight was enormously successful. The public, more than celebrating the technological success, embraced Glenn as a personification of heroism and dignity. Among other engagements, Glenn addressed a joint session of Congress and participated in several ticker-tape parades around the country. May 15-16, 1963: The capstone of Project Mercury, the flight of Faith 7, took place on this date with the flight of astronaut L. Gordon Cooper, who circled the Earth 22 times in 34 hours."

NASA may well be a civilian agency, but many of its programs are funded by the defense budget and most of the astronauts are subject to military security regulations. Apart from the fact that the National Security Agency screens all films and probably radio communications as well. We have the statements by Otto Binder, Dr. Garry Henderson and Maurice Chatelain that the astronauts were under strict orders not to discuss their sightings. And Gordon Cooper has testified to a United Nations committee that one of the astronauts actually witnessed a UFO on the ground. If there is no secrecy, why has this sighting not been made public? A certain professor, who wished to remain anonymous, was engaged in a discussion with Neil Armstrong during a NASA symposium. Professor: What REALLY happened out there with Apollo 11?

"text": "Norishige Kanai of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA, left), Anton Shkaplerov the Russian Federal Space Agency (Roscosmos, center) and Scott Tingle of NASA (right). NASAThe human body is meant to exist under the force of gravity. So when we do crazy things like send it up into space where the weight of this force is slim to none, weird things are going to happen. Here’s one: On Twitter this past Monday, Japanese astronaut Norishige Kanai proudly claimed that after spending three weeks on the International Space Station, he had grown three and a half inches. What? It’s indeed a well-established fact that spending time in places with zero-G can cause the spine to lengthen a bit, but three and a half inches sounded too good to be true to his fellow astronauts. He remeasured, and it turns out he's only grown around two centimeters—not quite an inch. Perhaps he was excited about that holiday gift of height. Unfortunately, once he returns to Earth and all its gravitational pull, his body will quickly shrink down even from this more modest increase. Still, two centimeters is not nothing, and it’s a reminder that spending time in space changes our bodies in strange ways."

He was selected as one of the original NASAMercury Seven astronauts in 1959, and in May 1961 he made the first manned Project Mercury flight, MR-3, in a spacecraft he named Freedom 7. His craft entered space, but was not capable of achieving orbit. He became the second person, and the first American, to travel into space, and the first person to manually control the orientation of his spacecraft. In the final stages of Project Mercury, Shepard was scheduled to pilot the Mercury-Atlas 10 (MA-10), which was planned as a three-day mission. He named Mercury Spacecraft 15B Freedom 7 II in honor of his first spacecraft, but the mission was cancelled."

Astronaut is Latin for \"\"star sailor,\"\" which quite nicely describes the career. Astronauts go on space shuttles to conduct experiments and further our understanding about life and other galaxies so unimaginably far away. Space operations astronauts are professional astronauts that work for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).

"text": "Miscellaneous10 Reasons the Moon Landings Could Be a Hoax Josh Fox December 28, 2012Share 24K Stumble 97 Tweet Pin 109 +1 251 Share 3024KThe theory that the moon landings were hoaxed by the US government to assert their victory in the space race over Russia, is something which has grown in popularity over time. Recent polls indicate that approximately 20% of Americans believe that the U. S. has never landed on the moon. After the Apollo missions ended in the seventies, why haven’t we ever been back? Only during the term of Richard Nixon did humanity ever land on the moon, and after Watergate most people wouldn’t put it past Tricky Dick to fake them to put America in good standing in the Cold War. In this list I have presented some of the proposed evidence to suggest that the moon landings were hoaxes. I tried to include NASA’s explanations to each entry to provide an objective perspective. 10The Waving Flag Conspiracy theorists have pointed out that when the first moon landing was shown on live television, viewers could clearly see the American flag waving and fluttering as Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin planted it. Photos of the landing also seem to show rippling in a breeze, such as the image above which clearly shows a fold in the flag. The obvious problem here is that there’s no air in the moon’s atmosphere, and therefore no wind to cause the flag to blow. Countless explanations have been put forward to disprove this phenomenon as anything unusual: NASA claimed that the flag was stored in a thin tube and the rippled effect was caused by it being unfurled before being planted."

In common usage, velocity and acceleration both can imply having considerable speed. In physics, they are sharply defined concepts that are not at all synonymous. Distinguishing clearly between them is a prerequisite to understanding motion. Moreover, an easy way to study motion is to draw a motion diagram, in which the position of the object in motion is sketched at several equally spaced instants of time, and these sketches (or snapshots) are combined into one single picture. In this problem, we make use of these concepts to study the motion of a power ball. This discussion assumes that we have already agreed on a coordinate system from which to measure the position of objects as a function of time. Letand (also called the position vector)be velocity and acceleration, respectively. Harvaran Ghai Consider the motion of a power ball that is dropped on the floor and bounces back.

Surprisingly, the physics of space travel was fairly realistic in the movie. They made a lot of the usual mistakes, which I'll mention briefly below. I also have some general comments about the movie, both Good and Bad, which I have added to the end of this page. So on to it!Bad: The engineer says that IKON, the Russian satellite, is at a height of 1000 miles and losing altitude at 8000 meters per day. Good: Ignoring the mixed units, these numbers don't really work. A satellite at an altitude of 1000 miles would stay stable in its orbit for centuries. The main reason a satellite's orbit would decay is due to friction with the Earth's atmosphere. Most people think that an object in orbit is above the atmosphere, but in reality there is air up that high, it's just incredibly thin. Over years, drag against the air slows the satellite down, which in turn lowers the orbit."

Space sciences include other areas of investigation such as space travel and space exploration, in addition to astronomy. Astronomers observe the birth, evolution, extinction and movement of objects in space, such as planets and stars, solar systems and galaxies, asteroids and comets, and black holes. Professionals try to predict future outcomes in the life of the universe, and they try to formulate clear theories about the past and origin of the cosmos. Astronomy and space sciences are closely related to astrophysics, aerospace engineering, astronautics, and it often involves knowledge from chemistry, mathematics, and statistics.

"text": "\"Natural sciences are one of the three major divisions of science, the other two being the social sciences and the formal sciences. Chemistry, biology, earth science, astronomy, and physics are all part of natural sciences. There are also cross-disciplines, such as biophysics, which integrate different aspects of multiple subjects. Prior to the 17th century, these disciplines were often referred to as \"\"natural philosophy\"\" and lacked the types of experiments and procedures used today. Chemistry Much of what defines modern civilization comes from advances in knowledge and technology caused by investigations in the natural sciences and chemistry. For instance, the modern production of food can be traced back to the Haber-Bosch process which was developed during World War I. This chemical process allows the creation of fertilizer nitrates from atmospheric nitrogen, rather than relying on biologically fixed sources of nitrogen such as cow dung, significantly increasing the amount of food various countries produce. Biology and Medicine Thanks to developments in biology, especially those in the 20th Century, doctors can use advanced medicines to cure or treat many diseases that were previously fatal. Through research in biology and medicine, scourges of the 19th century and before, such as plague and smallpox, have come largely under control. Perhaps more importantly, mortality rates for infants and mothers in industrialized nations have drastically decreased. The biological subfield of genetics has even allowed scientists to understand the very code of life itself, and recognize the way it expresses itself within each person."

[ 1] [2] [3] Roughly speaking, the natural sciences are considered \"\"hard\"\", whereas the social sciences are usually described as \"\"soft\"\". [ 3]Precise definitions vary, [4] but features often cited as characteristic of hard science include producing testable predictions, performing controlled experiments, relying on quantifiable data and mathematical models, a high degree of accuracy and objectivity, higher levels of consensus, faster progression of the field, greater explanatory success, and generally applying a purer form of the scientific method. [ 2] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] A closely related idea (originating in the nineteenth century with Auguste Comte) is that scientific disciplines can be arranged into a hierarchy of hard to soft on the basis of factors such as rigor, \"\"development\"\", and whether they are \"\"theoretical\"\" or \"\"applied\"\", with physics and chemistry typically being the hardest, biology in an intermediate position, and the social sciences being the softest. [ 4] [11]Some philosophers and sociologists of science have questioned the relationship between these characteristics and perceived hardness or softness. The more \"\"developed\"\" hard sciences do not necessarily have a greater degree of consensus or selectivity in accepting new results. [ 5] Commonly cited methodological differences are also not a reliable indicator. Psychologists use controlled experiments and economists use mathematical modelling, but as social sciences both are usually considered soft sciences, [1] [2] while natural sciences such as biology do not always aim to generate testable predictions. [ 8] There are some measurable differences between hard and soft sciences. For example, hard sciences make more extensive use of graphs, [4] [12] and soft sciences are more prone to a rapid turnover of buzzwords. ["

From studying the earth we live in to the skies above us, science majors and careers are all about exploration and delving into the unknown. Not to mention, many of these fields are among the most stable and lucrative available. So take a look and see what kinds of careers these common science majors lead to. PS When you're ready to search for colleges with all kinds of science majors, go here . Astronomy The major in astronomy examines the motion and nature of the sun, moon, starts, planets, and other celestial bodies. Astronomy brings to bear the knowledge of the mathematician, the chemist, and the physicist. Astronomy has evolved through recent centuries from an observational science, relying on data gathered from peering through a telescope, to an experimental science, including space exploration. Education Some colleges offer astronomy as an individual major. More frequently, program offerings are titled “Physics and Astronomy,” “Astronomy/Planetary Sciences,” or “Astrophysics.”"

The Scientific Method The scientific method has evolved over many centuries and has now come to be described in terms of a well-recognized and well-defined series of steps. First, information, or data, is gathered by careful observation of the phenomenon being studied. On the basis of that information a preliminarygeneralization, or hypothesis, is formed, usually by inductive reasoning, and this in turn leads by deductive logiclogic,the systematic study of valid inference.

As “assistant” to her husband and later to her son, she contributed to establishing the Berlin Academy of Science as a major centre of astronomy. Star-struck lover Maria Margarethe Winkelmann was born in Leipzig, in the German state of Lower Saxony. Her father, a Lutheran minister, believed in education for women and began teaching her from an early age. When her father died, her uncle continued to teach her. She showed an early interest in astronomy. To pursue this interest, Maria became the student, apprentice and assistant of Christopher Arnold, a self-taught astronomer who worked as a farmer – eventually moving in with him and his family. Married to the stars Through Arnold, Maria met one of the most famous German astronomers of the time, Gottfried Kirch. Despite a three-decade age gap, they married in 1692, and embarked on a joint career in astronomy. In 1700, at the foundation of the Berlin Academy of Science, he was appointed the Academy’s astronomer where she would serve as his unofficial but appreciated assistant."

When selecting a major, students should carefully review the requirements as described in the College Catalog. Minors Minors permit students to use their free electives with intellectual effectiveness and precision—to take a cohesive set of courses that complement studies in one’s major or to explore an unrelated area of intellectual interest. Minors typically require five to seven courses and are counted towards one’s electives. Each program outlines its particular requirements for a minor, so check the College Catalog for more information and a complete list of available minors.

"text": "\"Reference Terms from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Astronomy Astronomy is the scientific study of celestial objects (such as stars, planets, comets, and galaxies) and phenomena that originate outside the Earth's atmosphere (such as the cosmic background radiation). It is concerned with the evolution, physics, chemistry, meteorology, and motion of celestial objects, as well as the formation and development of the universe. Astronomy is one of the oldest sciences. Astronomers of early civilizations performed methodical observations of the night sky, and astronomical artifacts have been found from much earlier periods. However, the invention of the telescope was required before astronomy was able to develop into a modern science. Historically, astronomy has included disciplines as diverse as astrometry, celestial navigation, observational astronomy, the making of calendars, and even, at one time, astrology, but professional astronomy is nowadays often considered to be identical with astrophysics. Since the 20th century, the field of professional astronomy split into observational and theoretical branches. Observational astronomy is focused on acquiring and analyzing data, mainly using basic principles of physics. Theoretical astronomy is oriented towards the development of computer or analytical models to describe astronomical objects and phenomena. The two fields complement each other, with theoretical astronomy seeking to explain the observational results, and observations being used to confirm theoretical results."

This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by expanding it with reliably sourced entries. The following is a list of notable galaxies. There are about 51 galaxies in the Local Group (see list of nearest galaxies for a complete list), on the order of 100,000 in our Local Supercluster and an estimated number of about one to two trillion in all of the observable universe. The discovery of the nature of galaxies as distinct from other nebulae ( interstellar clouds) was made in the 1920s. The first attempts at systematic catalogues of galaxies were made in the 1960s, with the Catalogue of Galaxies and Clusters of Galaxies listing 29,418 galaxies and galaxy clusters, and with the Morphological Catalogue of Galaxies, a putatively complete list of galaxies with photographic magnitude above 15, listing 30,642. In the 1980s, the Lyons Groups of Galaxies listed 485 galaxy groups with 3,933 member galaxies. Galaxy Zoo is a project aiming at a more comprehensive list: launched in July 2007, it has classified over one million galaxy images from The Sloan Digital Sky Survey, The Hubble Space Telescope and the Cosmic Assembly Near-Infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey.

"text": "\"Edwin Hubble Lived 1889 – 1953. Edwin Hubble’s work produced a dramatic change in people’s beliefs about the universe, proving it is home to galaxies besides the Milky Way. Hubble showed we live in a universe of many galaxies separated by immense distances, each an isolated ‘island universe.’ Just as Copernicus caused an epochal change when he removed Earth from the center of the solar system, Hubble did so too when he removed our galaxy from the center of the universe. Hubble’s Law signals that the farther away another galaxy is, the faster it is moving away from us. Most scientists believe this means we live in an expanding universe, although Hubble was reluctant to accept this interpretation without further experimental proof. Advertisements Beginnings Edwin Powell Hubble was born on November 20, 1889 in the township of Marshfield, Missouri, USA. His mother was Virginia Lee James. His father was John Powell Hubble, who had a law degree and was an insurance salesman. Edwin was the third of eight children, not all of whom survived childhood."

It is not satisfiedand it will not be oppressed. \"\"- Edwin Powell Hubble (1889-1953)Edwin Hubble brought revolutionary discoveries to the science of astronomy. While at first, Hubble attended the school of law, nothing could hold him back from the subject of astronomy. He sought diligently after his education in astronomy and is famous for his quote,\"\"I knew that even if I were second or third rate, it was astronomy that mattered. \"\" Hubble was not second or third rate. For he discovered galaxies beyond our own Milky Way, a thought that was inconceivable at the time, and much more. Today, scientists have him to thank for breaking the ice in these revolutionary discoveries."

It is interesting that many of the Bible’s statements about astronomy went against the generally accepted teachings of the time. Undoubtedly, many of these verses would have seemed counterintuitive, and may have been difficult to believe when they were first written. However, modern science has confirmed what the Bible has taught. As in all things, the Bible is absolutely correct when it teaches about the universe. The Earth Is Round The Bible indicates that the earth is round. Consider Isaiah 40:22 which mentions the “circle of the earth.” This description is certainly fitting—particularly when the earth is viewed from space; the earth always appears as a circle since it is round. Another verse that indicates the spherical nature of our planet is Job 26:10. This verse teaches that God has inscribed a circle on the surface of the waters at the boundary of light and darkness."

"text": "Edwin Hubble Astronomer Specialty Extragalactic astronomy Born Nov. 20, 1889 Marshfield, Missouri, U. S. Died Sep. 28, 1953 (at age 63) San Marino, California Nationality American Edwin Hubble is a world renowned astronomer who has made a significant contribution to the scientific understanding of the galaxies and the universe. His work was revolutionary in many ways, and remains the blueprint for a number of scientific laws, theories, and discoveries. In recognition of his achievements and large contribution to the field of astrophysics, NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope was named after him, as well as many other monuments and landmarks, such as a planetarium, asteroid, and a number of university facilities. Hubble’s Early Life Edwin Hubble was born on November 20, 1889, in Marshfield, Missouri, in the United States. His parents were John Powell Hubble and Virginia Lee Hubble. As a child, Edwin had an avid interest for reading science fiction novels, with one of his favorites being 20,000 Leagues under the Sea by Jules Verne. At the age of 10, Hubble and his family, which included his seven siblings, moved to Chicago, Illinois. While in high school, Hubble proved himself to be an excellent athlete, outperforming his peers in both track and field sports, and managing to break the Illinois state record for the high jump. Secondary Education Following high school, Hubble was awarded a scholarship in 1906 to attend the University of Chicago, where he studied mathematics and astronomy. During his university years, he served as a lab assistant under Robert Milikan, who was to win the Nobel Prize in Physics at a later stage."

Credit: NASA, ESA, and the Hubble Heritage Team (STSc I/AURA)Astrophysics is a branch of space science that applies the laws of physics and chemistry to explain the birth, life and death of stars, planets, galaxies, nebulae and other objects in the universe. It has two sibling sciences, astronomy and cosmology, and the lines between them blur. In the most rigid sense: Astronomy measures positions, luminosities, motions and other characteristics Astrophysics creates physical theories of small to medium-size structures in the universe Cosmology does this for the largest structures, and the universe as a whole. In practice, the three professions form a tight-knit family. Ask for the position of a nebula or what kind of light it emits, and the astronomer might answer first. Ask what the nebula is made of and how it formed and the astrophysicist will pipe up. Ask how the data fit with the formation of the universe, and the cosmologist would probably jump in."

Not to be confused with astrology, the pseudoscience. A giant Hubble mosaic of the Crab Nebula, a supernova remnant Astronomy (from Greek: ἀστρονομία) is a natural science that studies celestial objects and phenomena. It applies mathematics, physics, and chemistry, in an effort to explain the origin of those objects and phenomena and their evolution. Objects of interest include planets, moons, stars, galaxies, and comets; the phenomena include supernova explosions, gamma ray bursts, and cosmic microwave background radiation. More generally, all phenomena that originate outside Earth's atmosphere are within the purview of astronomy. A related but distinct subject, physical cosmology, is concerned with the study of the Universe as a whole. [ 1]Astronomy is one of the oldest of the natural sciences. The early civilizations in recorded history, such as the Babylonians, Greeks, Indians, Egyptians, Nubians, Iranians, Chinese, Maya, and many ancient indigenous peoples of the Americas performed methodical observations of the night sky."

The first, which is actually only usable inside the solar system, is basic Radar and LIDAR. LIDAR is really only used to measure distance to the moon. This is done by flashing a bright laser through a big telescope (such as the 3.5 m on Apache Point in New Mexico (USA), see the Apollo Project) and then measuring the faint return pulse with that telescope from the various corner reflectors placed there by the Apollo moon missions. This allows us to measure the distance to the Moon very accurately (down to centimeters I believe). Radar has been used at least out to Saturn by using the 305 m Arecibo radio dish as both a transmitter and receiver to bounce radio waves off of Saturn's moons. Round trip radio time is on the order of almost 3 hours. If you want to get distances to things beyond our solar system, the first rung on the distance ladder is, as Wedge described in his answer, triangulation, or as it is called in astronomy, parallax."

"text": "\"Astrology as Religion [This is taken from Thomas H. Burgoyne's The Science of the Soul and Stars . ] There is one species of Divine revelation which has not, and cannot, be tampered with, one great Bible, which forms the starry original of all Bibles. This sacred Bible is the great Astral Bible of the skies; its chapters are the twelve great signs, its pages are the innumerable glittering constellations of the heavenly vault, and its characters are the personified ideals of the radiant Sun, the silvery moon, and the shining planets, of our solar sphere. There are three different aspects of this sacred book, and in each aspect the same characters appear, but in different roles, their dress and natural surroundings being suited to the natural play of their symbolical parts. In fact, the whole imagery may be likened unto a play, or, rather, a series of plays, performed by the same company of artists. It may be a comedy, or it may be melodrama, or it may be a tragedy; but the principles behind the scenes are ever the same, and show forth the same Divine Oneness of Nature; demonstrating the eternal axiom. ONE TRUTH, ONE LIFE, ONE PRINCIPLE, AND ONE WORD, and in their fourfold expression, is the four great chapters of the celestial book of the starry heavens. In this aspect the visible cosmos may be represented as a kaleidoscope. The visible constellations, planets, and other heavenly bodies, are the bits of colored glass; and Deity the invisible force, which keeps the instrument in motion. Each revolution produces a different pictorial figure, which, complete in its harmony of parts, is perfect in its mathematical proportions, and beautiful in its geometrical designs."

The surveillance case definitions were progressively developed through a consensus approach over a number of years. The Case Definitions Working Group currently comprises members representing all jurisdictions and the Australian Government Department of Health, the Public Health Laboratory Network, Oz Food Net, the Kirby Institute, the National Centre for Immunisation Research and Surveillance and other communicable disease experts. Laboratory case definitions previously developed by the Public Health Laboratory Network formed the basis for the surveillance case definitions, with clinical and epidemiological elements added, as appropriate.top of page Australian national notifiable diseases Click on the links for each disease for the case definition CDNA national surveillance case definition Disease name CDNA implementation date PHLN laboratory case definition Anthrax2004Anthrax Australian bat lyssavirus2004Australian bat lyssavirus infection Avian influenza in humans (AIH)1 July 2015Barmah Forest virus infection1 January 2016Alphavirus and flavivirus Botulism2004Botulism Brucellosis1 July 2016Brucellosis Campylobacteriosis2004Campylobacter Chikungunya12 May 2010Chlamydial infection1 July 2013Chlamydia Cholera2004Cholera Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD)16 December 2009Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease -

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Lexical definition of definition)navigation search To get the definition of another word, try using Wiktionary For other uses of the word \"\"definition\"\" itself, see Definition (disambiguation). A definition states the meaning of a word using other words. This is sometimes challenging. Common dictionaries contain lexical descriptive definitions but there are various types of definition - all with different purposes and focuses. A definition is a statement of the meaning of a term (a word, phrase, or other set of symbols ). [ 1] Definitions can be classified into two large categories, intensional definitions (which try to give the essence of a term) and extensional definitions (which proceed by listing the objects that a term describes). [ 2] Another important category of definitions is the class of ostensive definitions, which convey the meaning of a term by pointing out examples. A term may have many different senses and multiple meanings, and thus require multiple definitions. [ 3] [a]In mathematics, a definition is used to give a precise meaning to a new term, instead of describing a pre-existing term. Definitions and axioms are the basis on which all of modern mathematics is constructed. ["

Their chief is a general of an army, not the mere father abbot of a monastery. And the aim of this organization is power – power in its most despotic exercise – absolute power, universal power, power to control the world by the volition of a single man [i.e., the Black Pope, the Superior General of the Jesuits]. Jesuitism is the most absolute of despotisms [sic] – and at the same time the greatest and most enormous of abuses…”Napoleon I (i.e., Napoleon Bonaparte; 1769-1821; emperor In Napoleans memoirs he said “ The Jesuits are a MILITARY organisation , not a religious order. Their chief is a general of an army, not the mere father abbot of a monastery. And the aim of this organization is power – power in its most despotic exercise – absolute power, universal power, power to control the world by the volition of a single man [i.e., the Superior General of the Jesuits]. Jesuitism is the most absolute of despotisms – and at the same time the greatest and most enormous of abuses…”To understand Napoleons wars you first need to understand the position of the Jesuit Order in Europe before his rise to power. The French had kicked out the Jesuits, Louie XIV expelled them (sparked off by a dispute over businesses the jesuits were running), Portugal under Joseph III expelled them in 1759 (for alledgedly plotting to kill the king among many other crimes), Spain expelled them 1767 under Charles III. The most powerful Catholic monarchs in the world expelled them and demanded that the Pope suppress them. So in 1773 Pope Clement XIV suppressed the Jesuits FOREVER with a Papal Bull, and so Maria Teresa, the Hapsburg Queen, expelled them from Austria. The collusion between the Jesuit Order and Napoleon had to remain a secret."

[ 2] Originally the ASU athletic teams' mascot was an owl, then became a \"\" Normal \"\" (because ASU was founded as a normal school ). It was later changed to a bulldog in an attempt to make the school – Arizona State Teacher's College at the time – appear more in line with Yale and other universities that held a higher level of respect. [ 3] The State Press, the student newspaper, ran frequent appeals during the fall of 1946, urging the Bulldog to be replaced by the new Sun Devil. On November 8, 1946, the student body voted 819 to 196 to make the change. On November 20, as reported by the Arizona Republic, the student council made it official. The following day, the first Arizona State team played as the Sun Devils. Two years later, alumnus and Disney illustrator Berk Anthony designed \"\"Sparky\"\", a devil holding a trident [2] (colloquially referred to as a pitchfork [4] ). Anthony is rumored to have based Sparky's facial features on that of his former boss, Walt Disney. [ 5] Sparky is officially known as a \"\"mischievous imp\"\", with no other backstory than that. ["

Longer answer, Asus had made a name for itself in the computer industry before going down the road to mobile phones. So they do have the technology to go down the road. Their first mobile phone es are the Zenfone 4 and 5 and 6 which had some quirks being one of the few phones using Intel chipsets and new architecture along with it. However, due to the affordable price and specs, it was a good buy. The second lineup, the Zenfone 2 series (including the zenfone 2 laser) is an improvement to the previous lineup, with the laser series aiming for a market that had a lower budget for a phone. And they were quite successful. Although arguably they can't beat the prices of other Chinese manufacturers who were generally cheaper but the build quality of the Zenfone was a lot better than those others."

Asurion said the deductible would be $150, but when I signed up for it Sprint Telesales said it would be $100. The Sprint CS agent I spoke with this morning said she wouldn't resolve it.

I am sorry about the discrepancy with the insurance claim. Recently Asurion changed their pricing and deductible amount. For most smart phones the deductible was raised from $100 to $150. Unfortunately, Sprint won't be able to change or adjust this amount as it's a charge billed by Asurion which is a separate company from Sprint."

"text": "\"Nick Farrell03 June 2010Tweet Facebook Google plus Send to155 Comments ZOMBIE EVIL PHONE COMPANY AT&T clearly does not think that the buck stops at the top of its telephone empire. If you write to complain to its CEO, its customer services staff will refer the matter to its legal department. While it is fairly obvious that the CEO of AT&T does not like to deal with the complaints of the great unwashed, it is a bit of a PR own goal of threatening someone who goes to the top with their complaints. In this case it was an Apple user called \"\"Giorgio G\"\" who decided to voice his displeasure with the AT&T Wireless \"\"new and improved\"\" data plans directly to the CEO. Writing in his blog;, he tells the story about how he sent two emails on the matter over two weeks to see if they would bump up his hone upgrade eligibility date, given that he spends $110 per month with the company. To his surprise, he received a voicemail from AT&T's executive response staff. The gist is thanks for the feedback, and if you bother our CEO again, we're going to send you a cease and desist letter. It looks like AT&T can't deal with smug sarcasm, which we would have thought, since it's Apple's only US telco supplier, it would have gotten used to by now. What he wrote was \"\"Thanks for making the switch to a Sprint HTC Evo an even easier decision. I don't think even Steve Jobs can spin 2GB for $25/month as a good thing for the consumer."

"text": "\"Does phone insurance really add up? Sarah Jacobsson Purewal/CNETPaying an extra $5 to $11 per month for month-to-month phone insurance might sound tempting -- especially now that the big wireless carriers have ditched contracts and subsidized phones, and you're paying upfront for a new i Phone 7. But it's not that simple. First of all, month-to-month phone insurance isn't the great deal it sounds like -- that relatively low monthly fee is only part of the cost you'll pay if your phone is damaged, lost or stolen. For each claim you file, you'll pay a deductible of $50 to $199 (unless it's an old-school flip phone, assume that price is going to be $199), and most insurance companies only let you file up to two claims per year. Also, if you tend to drop your phone and break the screen -- but nothing else -- insurance may not be worth it because screens can be surprisingly cheap to replace. So, should you get month-to-month phone insurance? Probably not, but let's take a look at the available plans before we answer that question in more detail. The plans There are two ways to get month-to-month phone insurance: You can purchase it from your wireless carrier, in which case you'll simply pay the premium as an add-on to your wireless bill, or you can purchase it directly from a third-party insurance company such as Square Trade. The main difference between the two is that carrier-provided insurance usually covers device malfunction, damage, loss and theft, while Square Trade covers only malfunction and damage."

"text": "About 25 million people will need a new cell phone this year because theirs has been lost or stolen. That’s why so many customers buy “equipment protection plans” for their wireless phones. These insurance policies, which normally sell for $4.99 a month, promise to replace your phone if it is lost, damaged or stolen — conditions that are not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty. But do people who spend the extra money to protect their phone understand how these insurance policies work? Under terms of a settlement given preliminary approval by a federal judge in Florida last week, two of the biggest cell phone insurers agreed to clearly disclose the terms of their policies — and to pay more potentially as much as $60 million in compensation to millions of past customers. Carlos Perez of Miami lost his cell phone in July 2004. He reported the loss to Asurion Insurance Services, the company that covered his Verizon phone. Asurion told Perez he would be required to pay a $50 deductible to get his replacement phone, which he did. According to court documents, the replacement phone Perez received “was refurbished and/or of lesser value” than the one he had purchased from Verizon. The suit also alleges the phone “had many problems and simply did not work well.”"

It was denied because SOMEWHERE (not where I paid for NEXT DAY shipping) in the process it says there's a two day processing delay for the product I ordered. The \"\"so called\"\" NEXT DAY $114 shipping fee was for the NEXT DAY shipping after the processing delay. Be aware of shipping practices from this place. Read everything.

Let's see if we can at least get you connected with your text messages online. Had you been using Verizon Messages on your old phone? ( The Verizon Messages application.) If so, you can log into Verizon Messages online and view, send, manage messages. http://vz.to/Nfij1T Without the Verizon Messages application, (previously downloaded/ subscribed), you won't be able to use this feature online."

The phone looks flawless but if you look at the right angle you can see the screen is not cracked, the digitizer is cracked. Normally I crack the screen and not the digitizer and it functions fine. Screen is black, phone turns on, a little buggy though as I can't get anything to work...well I can't see anything but the problem is when I plug in the usb plug so I can save the contents of my internal sd card the computer does not see the phone. I am not sure why a cracked digitizer would do that. Any idea on how I can get the files of the internal memory? Thanks.12-20-2013 10:38 AM Like 0"

About 150 employees will immediately occupy the space in the Reston Town Center complex, with another 450 moving in as renovations are completed. “The selection of the headquarters location for Leidos was made after careful consideration of many options,” said SAIC COO Stu Shea, future president and COO of Leidos. “ We did careful analysis of where employees live and also mapped out key customer locations to inform our decision. ”The team also considered quality of life, traffic patterns and potential commute times for employees, among other factors. “Reston makes sense for Leidos – it’s easily accessible and the amenities are world class. The new facility will be more conveniently located for our employees and still gives us easy access to key customers in the area,” Shea said. The company is moving from a campus environment, where all employees are housed and congregate, to a true headquarters environment where primarily the leadership team and some corporate functions reside. “With such a large percentage of our employees working side-by-side with our customers each day – this approach makes sense for Leidos,” Shea said. “The Greater Reston Chamber of Commerce is excited that Leidos has decided to headquarter in the fast growing and vibrant Reston business corridor,” said Mark Ingrao, President and CEO of the Greater Reston Chamber of Commerce. “"

"text": "\"Does phone insurance really add up? Sarah Jacobsson Purewal/CNETPaying an extra $5 to $11 per month for month-to-month phone insurance might sound tempting -- especially now that the big wireless carriers have ditched contracts and subsidized phones, and you're paying upfront for a new i Phone 7. But it's not that simple. First of all, month-to-month phone insurance isn't the great deal it sounds like -- that relatively low monthly fee is only part of the cost you'll pay if your phone is damaged, lost or stolen. For each claim you file, you'll pay a deductible of $50 to $199 (unless it's an old-school flip phone, assume that price is going to be $199), and most insurance companies only let you file up to two claims per year. Also, if you tend to drop your phone and break the screen -- but nothing else -- insurance may not be worth it because screens can be surprisingly cheap to replace. So, should you get month-to-month phone insurance? Probably not, but let's take a look at the available plans before we answer that question in more detail. The plans There are two ways to get month-to-month phone insurance: You can purchase it from your wireless carrier, in which case you'll simply pay the premium as an add-on to your wireless bill, or you can purchase it directly from a third-party insurance company such as Square Trade. The main difference between the two is that carrier-provided insurance usually covers device malfunction, damage, loss and theft, while Square Trade covers only malfunction and damage."

"text": "i Phone Owner's Guide What to Do If Your i Phone Gets Wet If your i Phone comes into contact with water or another liquid, resist the urge to panic while the liquid saturates the internal components. Instead, follow these simple steps in order to prevent lasting damage: Remove your i Phone from the liquid and power off your device. Due to their conductive natures, water and other liquids short-circuit electronics. Do not power on your i Phone, charge it, or connect it to other devices without proper time to dry. Dry your i Phone with a soft, absorbent cloth and carefully wipe down the headphone jack and charge port. If your i Phone is a GSM/AT&T model, remove and dry the SIM card and tray. Evaporating liquid with a heat source causes additional damage and is not recommended. Lay your phone in a safe, dry place. Allow at least 48 hours for the liquid to evaporate before reinserting the SIM components or turning on the i Phone. Alternative Drying Method - Place Phone in Rice Placing your i Phone in a plastic bag filled with uncooked rice facilitates the evaporation process."

The company’s history starts in 1899 with the Brown Telephone company. By 2006, Sprint was ready to leave the landline phone business behind so the company created the Embarq brand, which later turned into Century Link. Sprint expanded mobile services with the help of advancing technology and a merger with Nextel. When the Sprint/Nextel merger was completed, the Sprint headquarters was home to more than 14,000 employees. The company has downsized over the years and now subleases some of the corporate space to other companies like JP Morgan and Care Centrix. To accommodate the new leasees, Sprint headquarters plans to change street names to better reflect all companies located on the campus. Sprint Headquarters Info The Sprint headquarters is more of a campus than a building, according to descriptions. The headquarters is comprised of 17 buildings located on more than 200 acres. Total office space tops out at more than three million square feet."

I contacted HTC and they said they can fix it but can't give me even a ballpark price until they see it. Does anybody have any idea how much it'll be?

It might be super easy, but opening the case will void warranty and the insurance because you've \"\"tampered with it\"\".

But $125, maybe even $150 would be better than a refurbished phone from Verizon."

"text": "\"IMEI vs. MEID what is the difference? Submitted by James Bond on Tue, 12/17/2013 - 8:00am Are you wondering what that IMIE or MEID number is on your cell phone? Wondering why your phone shows an MEID number instead of an IMEI number or vise versa? Interested in knowing what the difference between the two is? Then you have come to the right place. This article explains what an IMEI and MEID number is and what they are used for. Purpose of the IMIE and MEIDBoth of these numbers are often referred to as “Device Identifiers” and are used to help wireless carriers and cell phone manufactures identify specific devices. Each of these Device Identifiers is unique to their specific device. Think of the IMEI number or MEID number as the phones Social Security Number. There might be thousands of a specific make and model of phone produced and released but each of those cell phones will have its own unique Device Identifier."

"text": "About 25 million people will need a new cell phone this year because theirs has been lost or stolen. That’s why so many customers buy “equipment protection plans” for their wireless phones. These insurance policies, which normally sell for $4.99 a month, promise to replace your phone if it is lost, damaged or stolen — conditions that are not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty. But do people who spend the extra money to protect their phone understand how these insurance policies work? Under terms of a settlement given preliminary approval by a federal judge in Florida last week, two of the biggest cell phone insurers agreed to clearly disclose the terms of their policies — and to pay more potentially as much as $60 million in compensation to millions of past customers. Carlos Perez of Miami lost his cell phone in July 2004. He reported the loss to Asurion Insurance Services, the company that covered his Verizon phone. Asurion told Perez he would be required to pay a $50 deductible to get his replacement phone, which he did. According to court documents, the replacement phone Perez received “was refurbished and/or of lesser value” than the one he had purchased from Verizon. The suit also alleges the phone “had many problems and simply did not work well.”"

A recent news release indicated that Sprint was serving 55 million customers, its highest number ever. Many of these new customers are coming for the i Phone--Sprint states that out of 1.6 million new customers, the largest number of new customers since 2005, 40% purchased an i Phone. These new phone customers often have another thing in common; they're ditching their landline units and using their mobile devices inside their homes. In fact, in June 2010, the National Center for Health Statistics found that more than one in four U. S. homes had a wireless number instead of a landline. This number is up from 13.6% in 2007. There are many reasons for the switch from landline to mobile device. The cost of maintaining two devices is a big one. When tenants move into rental buildings with old landlines that aren't well maintained and expensive to get in working order, it is now possible to avoid using the landline all together. Portability is another substantive factor."

"text": "home >> Data Recovery >> Recycle Bin data recoery Recover deleted photos videos data after emptying Recycle Bin How can I recover photo video files deleted or emptied from Recycle Bin in Windows 10/8/7/Vista/XP Computer As computer users, we understand that deleted photos videos documents such as Microsoft Word docx files, Powerpoint Presentation ppt files, Microsoft Excel files, pdf data, and folders will go to Recycle Bin, and we can restore deleted file from Recycle Bin. But what happens after emptying the Recycle Bin, or deleted the file from Recycle Bin, or files just didn't go to Recycle Bin when they were deleted. Are those files recoverable? How Recycle Bin works? When we delete a file from in Windows 10/8/7/Vista/XP PC hard disk, windows operating system will send it to Recycle Bin. But if you deleted a file from external drive like USB drive, external hard disk, the file will be deleted directly, because Recycle Bin sits on local hard drive, not external drive. Also, Recycle Bin has a limited size. If file size is too large, or Recycle Bin does not have enough space to store the file sent to Recycle Bin, the file will be deleted directly. How to get back files and folders deleted from Recycle Bin? The good news is that all files and folders deleted (even you deleted them from Recycle Bin) are still in the hard disk."

They are Dr. Robert Robbins, president and CEO of Texas Medical Center, and Sethuraman \"\"Panch\"\" Panchanathan, Arizona State University's vice president of research. The board will interview the two finalists Monday and likely select a single finalist to visit the Tucson campus on March 8, Regent Ron Shoopman said. \"\" We had such a strong group of prospects. These two rose to the top of the list,\"\" said Shoopman, who co-chaired a search committee that sent a short list of prospects to the regents for consideration. Shoopman said some prospects withdrew their names from consideration before finalists' names were made public Tuesday. He did not know the number who withdrew their names.

Its flagship device, Microsoft Holo Lens, was announced at the \"\"Windows 10: The Next Chapter\"\" press event on January 21, 2015 [1] It provides a mixed reality experience where a live presentation of physical real-world elements is incorporated with that of virtual elements (referred to as \"\"holograms\"\" by Microsoft [2] [3] [4] [a]) such that they are perceived to exist together in a shared environment. A variant of Windows for augmented reality computers [5] (which augment a real-world physical environment with virtual elements) Windows Mixed Reality features an augmented-reality operating environment in which any Universal Windows Platform app can run. [ 6] [b]The platform is also used for virtual reality headsets designed for use on the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update, which are built to specifications implemented as part of Windows Mixed Reality, but lack support for holographic experiences.

It uses various sensors, a high-definition stereoscopic 3D optical head-mounted display, and spatial sound to allow for augmented reality applications, with a natural user interface that the user interacts with through gaze, voice, and hand gestures. [ 7] [8] [9] Codenamed \"\"Project Baraboo,\"\" Holo Lens had been in development for five years before its announcement in 2015, but was conceived earlier as the original pitch made in late 2007 for what would become the Kinect technology platform. [ 9] [10]Microsoft has targeted Holo Lens for release \"\"in the Windows 10 timeframe,\"\" with the Microsoft Holo Lens Development Edition to begin shipping March 30, 2016, available by application to developers in the United States and Canada for a list price of US$3000. [ 1] [11] Although the Development Edition is considered to be consumer-ready hardware, as of February 2016 Microsoft has not set a time frame for consumer availability of Holo Lens, with Holo Lens chief inventor Alex Kipman stating that Holo Lens will have a consumer release only when the market is ready for it. [ 12] Companies such as Samsung Electronics and Asus had expressed interest in working with Microsoft to produce their own mixed-reality products based on Holo Lens. ["

"text": "The launch of Haswell-E ushered in a triumvirate of new technology – a new CPU line, a new motherboard chipset and DDR4 memory. Today we focus on the new consumer motherboard chipset, X99, with motherboards from all four major manufacturers: the ASUS X99-Deluxe, the GIGABYTE X99-UD7 Wi Fi, the ASRock X99 WS and the MSI X99S SLI Plus. X99 represents the upgrade over the previous extreme chipset generation, X79, in several key areas in order to align itself better with the mainstream Z97 and Z87 platforms. The X99 Chipset Intel’s processor strategy at the high performance end of the spectrum ensures that the same line of motherboards with the same CPU socket and chipset are kept for two generations of CPUs. With the Nehalem and Westmere CPUs there was socket LGA1366 and the X58 chipset, and with Sandy Bridge-E/Ivy Bridge-E CPUs we had LGA2011-0 and the X79 chipset. This new line of Haswell-E processors (along with the future Broadwell-E ones) will use the LGA2011-3 socket and the X99 chipset. This means that users investing in the new Haswell-E processors must also invest in a new motherboard. This has several upsides in the levels of functionality. For the first half of 2014, the zeitgeist of the X79 platform was centered on its age and the comparison to the newer Z87 and Z97 platforms aimed at the mainstream processor lines. The Z87 and Z97 chipsets afforded more native SATA 6 Gbps ports, more native USB 3.0 ports, PCIe based storage in the form of SATA Express and M.2 and more flexibility from the point of view of the manufacturers – the chipset had a certain amount of configurable input/output from the chipset to the motherboards could be designed with specific users in mind."

Contact Author Selecting the Best Laptop for Engineering Students Laptops for engineering students and graduates should be fast, efficient, and versatile!As if going into an engineering school is already not difficult enough, you have to hold up with the burning load of technological and creative requirements every day. I only had a desktop when I first joined the college to study mechanical engineering. I thought it would be enough — but, boy oh boy, it was not. I had to stay up late in college to finish the reports, do the drawings, then submit them the same day. I had to go through the phase of picking a computer that was portable, met all my requirements and also gave me some sense of entertainment. With my friends to guide me and a little help from Google, I managed to pick some good ones. These days, so many laptops are overrated that it's easy to make mistakes on this expensive investment.

"text": "\"Written and Tested by Nick Schmiedicker August 07, 2015This review was published on February 24, 2015. Since then, this product may have been discontinued or replaced. Pricing and availability may differ from what is stated in the review. Dell is starting out 2015 with a bang. The new Dell XPS 13 (MSRP $799.99, $1,399.99 as tested) reimagines how an ultrabook should look by introducing a clever new design element. It’s easy to imagine every other laptop manufacturer reconsidering how they’re handling the laptop market in response to the XPS 13. The innovation comes in the form of the “infinity” display, which is Dell’s fancy way of saying the bezel is only millimeters thin. Content looks almost like it's popping off the sides, while also allowing Dell to fit a 13-inch display into a case normally reserved for 11-inch laptops. After spending more than a week with the XPS 13, it's clear that this is simply a wonderful machine, striking a superb balance between performance, price, and size. If you’re looking for a lightweight, powerful, long-lasting laptop that won't break the bank, look no further."

"text": "\"Ultrabooks: What You Need To Know Intel reshapes the laptop landscape with its sexy new \"\"Ultrabook\"\" category. We give you the lowdown on this \"\"new\"\" kind of laptop. By Cisco Cheng August 10, 2011 10:30PM ESTFacebook Twitter Linkedin Pinterest Reddit Email Copy VIEW ALL PHOTOS IN GALLERYLaptops are a vast and complex category, and as such, there are subcategories (i.e. ultraportables, netbooks, desktop replacement) that we, the tech industry, create to differentiate the small from the large, thin from the fat, and weak from the powerful. It's like putting a plant or animal in its proper taxonomic rank. Intel has decided to rearrange the laptop landscape, so to speak. It has come up with a new category it calls \"\"Ultrabooks,\"\" which it feels will be the most dominant type of laptop in the coming years. So the obvious question is: What is an Ultrabook? First, let's be clear: Ultrabooks aren't a new breed of mutant laptops. Rather, they're part of an evolving category of incredibly thin and battery-efficient laptops that use low-voltage processors. For a while, they were categorized as \"\"CULV\"\" (Consumer Ultra Low Voltage) laptops before Intel realized how terrible the name was from a marketing standpoint."

"text": "Home Reviews Mobile Tablets Asus Transformer Book T100 - Performance, Features and Verdict Score1 of 13By Andrew Williams August 31, 2016 5:05 pm Sections Page 1 Asus Transformer Book T100Page 2 Keyboard and Screen Page 3 Performance, Features and Verdict Asus Transformer Book T100 – Software and Performance One of the triumphs of the Asus Transformer Book T100 is that it runs full Windows 8.1 rather than the cut-down RT version. Windows RT doesn’t let you install any and every Windows app, just ones from the Windows Store, making it pretty limited. There was, of course, a reason for this limitation – most low-end Windows tablets don’t really have the power to make such scope worthwhile. Like many of those computers, the Asus Transformer Book T100 has an Intel Atom-based processor. This is much less powerful than the Intel Core chips used in most mid-range and high-end laptops, but this latest generation of Atom processor is a big improvement that really helps to cement the attraction of the Asus Transformer Book T100. It uses a 1.3GHz quad-core Intel Atom Z3740 CPU, which is from the new Bay Trail generation of processors. It’s much, much faster than the equivalent Clover Trail chip of last year. Our PC Mark benchmark shows that it can compete with last-gen Intel Core i3 processors, although naturally not this year’s Haswell models. For a low-cost laptop, the level of power on tap is just ok, but for a tablet the Asus Transformer Book T100 is very, very powerful. It comes out with 2330 PC Mark 07 points."

"text": "\"Technology Ask Jack All I use is Microsoft Word – should I get a laptop or netbook? Charlotte, a novelist, wants a cheap but very light machine for working on manuscripts Jack Schofield Thu 19 Sep 2013 10.58 EDT10.58 EDT7 59The purple Asus Eee PC X101CH weighs less than a kilo and has a 10.1in screen, a 1.6GHz Intel Atom processor and a 320GB hard drive. I'm a novelist with a bad back, and need something more portable than my perfectly functional laptop for working on my manuscripts away from home. Netbooks are dead; Ultrabooks are expensive; Chromebooks defeat the object, because all I need is to work in, and save frequently on, Microsoft Word – no touchscreens and, probably, no cloud. Charlotte You don't mention a budget, but is £350 too much? At the moment I'd go for an Asus Vivo Book S200 with an 11.6in screen for £349.97. This gets you a PC that is about the size and weight of a netbook but with a much better specification. It includes an Intel Pentium processor, 4GB of memory, a 500GB hard drive, VGA (D-SUB) and HDMI video ports, two USB 2 ports, one USB 3 port, an SD card slot and an Ethernet port. The Vivo Book S200SE comes loaded with Microsoft Windows 8, which will soon get a free upgrade to Windows 8.1. As you say, you don't really need a touch-sensitive screen, but it is an advantage when using Windows 8's \"\"modern\"\" (formerly Metro) apps downloaded from the Windows Store."

I was impressed when it was first announced and promptly bought one of my own. I've used it for over six months now and I figured it's time to revisit how well it is serving me. Asus Transformer Book T100 Image: James Kendrick/ZDNet The T100 is a 10.1-inch tablet first, and a laptop second. It works well as a tablet and even better as a laptop with the keyboard dock that Asus includes in the box. When the tablet is docked with the keyboard unit, it is hard to tell it isn't a traditional laptop, the mark of a great design. I am regularly asked if the Atom Bay Trail processor is stout enough to handle Windows 8.1, and as it was months ago, it is still sufficient for my needs.

S. military has its own minimum standards when it comes to the Armed Forces Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) scores and education levels needed to qualify for enlistment. As of 2018, these are the standards for each of the services for scoring on the ASVAB as well as education levels. Air Force ASVAB and Education Requirements Air Force recruits must score at least 36 points the 99-point ASVAB. The overall ASVAB score is known as the AFQT score, or Armed Forces Qualification Test score. Exceptions may be made, however, for a handful of high school graduates who can score as low as 31. The vast majority, some 70 percent, of those accepted for an Air Force enlistment score 50 or above. Your chances of joining the Air Force without graduating high school are slim to none. Even with a GED, the chances are not good. Only about half of one percent of all Air Force enlistments each year are GED-holders. To even be considered for one of these very few slots, a GED-holder must score a minimum of 65 on the AFQT."

They use the GT score. 81 is probably your AFQT score. You need a 110 on your GT score to be eligible for OCS. With an 81 AFQT score, you probably have a high enough GT score.1 person found this useful Was this answer useful?"

"text": "Home » Classroom How to Calculate a Marine GT Score By Kat Black; Updated October 04, 2017In order to be eligible for certain jobs in the United States Marine Corps, you must meet the necessary GT score, or General Technical score. For example, intelligence specialists and interrogators must have a GT score of at least 100 while assaultmen must have a GT score of at least 80. Your GT score is a line score derived by adding scores from various components of the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB). The ASVAB contains nine sub-tests: general science, arithmetic reasoning, word knowledge, paragraph comprehension, mathematics knowledge, electronics information, mechanical comprehension, auto and shop information and assembling objects. Locate your Verbal Expression (VE) score. On most score reports, this score is the last of the standard scores. The standard scores appear directly below your personal identification information. The military computes this score by adding your Word Knowledge and Paragraph Comprehension scores and scaling the score from 20 to 62. Each of the ASVAB test versions has its own scale. Locate your Arithmetic Reasoning (AR) score."

Your AFQT score determines whether or not you qualify to enlist in that particular branch of the service. The ASVAB also produces several line scores, which are different for each branch of service. Line scores determine which military jobs you’re qualified for. For charts showing how such scores relate to specific jobs in each branch of service, click here for the printable article, Matching ASVAB Scores to Military Jobs. Whether you take the pencil-and-paper version of the ASVAB or the CAT-ASVAB (computerized version), the scores are the same. The computerized version of the ASVAB is adaptive, which means that on some sections of the test, harder questions are worth more points than easier questions, so you may be able to obtain the maximum possible score with fewer questions. VE Score The Verbal Expression (VE) score is used to determine qualifications for many military jobs in all the branches, and it’s used to help determine your AFQT score. To compute your VE score, the military adds the number correct (1 point per correct answer) of the Paragraph Comprehension (PC) and the Word Knowledge (WK) subtests and then compares the results to the info in the following table. Computing the VE Score Standard Scores (PC + WK) VE Score50 6248–49 6046–47 5844–45 5642–43 5440–41 5238–39 5036–37 4934–35 4732–33 4530–31 4428–29 4226–27 4024–25 3822–23 3620–21 3418–19 3216–17 3114–15 2912–13 2710–11 258–9 226–7 224–5 210–3 20AFQT Score The AFQT (Armed Forces Qualifying Test) score is arguably the most important ASVAB score because it determines whether you’re eligible to join the military branch of your choice."

"text": "Navy ASVAB AFQT Score Requirements The Navy is a little more restrictive than the Army when it comes to AFQT scores but only when it comes to enlistment with a GED instead of a high school diploma. If you have a high school diploma the minimum AFQT score necessary for enlistment in the Navy is 31 and it’s 50 if you have a GED. Applicants with a GED must be at least 19 years old and show a proven work history. GED recruits make up 5 to 10 percent of each year’s Navy class. A minimum score of 50 is required for you to qualify for the Navy College Fund or college loan repayment program. The Navy also raises its minimum AFQT requirement for females to 50 when it receives too many female applicants as on-ship housing for females is limited. Retest Policy If you don’t meet the minimum AFQT score requirements for the Army the option for a retest is available under the circumstances: The applicant’s previous ASVAB test has expired (text scores expire after two years). The applicant did not achieve a score that was high enough to qualify for enlistment. Applicants in the Delayed Entry Program (DEP) can’t retest. ( The Navy does offer a DEP Enrichment Program which provides provisional DEP enlistment of applicants with a high school diploma who have AFQT scores between 28 and 30."

The next is during your Senior year in High School (again, public schools) You can take practice ASVAB tests online for free (you must search for them, but they are there) The only other time is at the MEPS (as you mentioned in your question). The military will only accept the results of the ASVAB from your Senior year in high school or from the MEPS. UPDATE: Yes, the ASVAB you take during your Senior year in High School CAN be used by your local Recruiter/MEPS in lieu of taking the test on-site (at MEPS). The test scores must be current, not older that 2 calendar years in order to be accepted and the school MUST have forwarded your test to the national processing center for the ASVAB (this is usually done automatically by most public schools that offer the test).benjamin m · 10 years ago1 0 Comment Asker's rating You can retake the ASVAB while in the military if you need a higher GT score for another MOS.

This rating, which has Navy Occupational Specialty code number B400 allows new recruits to enlist without a specific career path identified. It's often used by some enlisted personnel who haven't decided which career to pursue (think of it as a college freshman whose major is still \"\"undecided\"\"), and by others who want a certain rating that may not be available at the time they enlist. Duties Performed by Boatswain's Mates Boatswain's Mates train, direct and supervise personnel in ship's maintenance duties in all activities relating to marlinspike (a tool used to help tie large knots), deck, boat seamanship, painting, upkeep of ship's external structure, rigging, deck equipment and, of course, boats. Boatswain's Mates also operate and maintain equipment which may be used in a variety of areas aboard a ship, including loading and unloading cargo, ammunition, fuel and general stores. Since this rating is kind of an all-purpose position, the duties are varied and tend to cover work not assigned to other ratings. Boatswain's Mates may serve as helmsmen and lookouts, or stand as security watches (both in port and at sea), or serve as part of a damage control, emergency or security alert team. Their duties may also include repairing, maintaining and stowing equipment in preparation for underway operations; doing temporary duty for 90-120 days with food services divisions or compartment cleaning; working in non-engineering divisions of the ship or station or participating in naval ceremonies. Working Environment for Boatswain's Mates After successful completion of recruit training, Boatswain's Mates are usually assigned to shipboard duties where the Navy needs them the most.

Air Force ASVAB and Education Requirements Air Force recruits must score at least 36 points the 99-point ASVAB. The overall ASVAB score is known as the AFQT score, or Armed Forces Qualification Test score. Exceptions may be made, however, for a handful of high school graduates who can score as low as 31. The vast majority, some 70 percent, of those accepted for an Air Force enlistment score 50 or above. Your chances of joining the Air Force without graduating high school are slim to none.

Your AFQT score determines whether or not you qualify to enlist in that particular branch of the service. The ASVAB also produces several line scores, which are different for each branch of service. Line scores determine which military jobs you’re qualified for. For charts showing how such scores relate to specific jobs in each branch of service, click here for the printable article, Matching ASVAB Scores to Military Jobs. Whether you take the pencil-and-paper version of the ASVAB or the CAT-ASVAB (computerized version), the scores are the same. The computerized version of the ASVAB is adaptive, which means that on some sections of the test, harder questions are worth more points than easier questions, so you may be able to obtain the maximum possible score with fewer questions. VE Score The Verbal Expression (VE) score is used to determine qualifications for many military jobs in all the branches, and it’s used to help determine your AFQT score. To compute your VE score, the military adds the number correct (1 point per correct answer) of the Paragraph Comprehension (PC) and the Word Knowledge (WK) subtests and then compares the results to the info in the following table.

"text": "ASVAB How it is Scored How is the test scored? You receive a score for each of the eight subtests, as well as a score for three “composite areas” as described below. Verbal Ability Composite = Word Knowledge Score + Paragraph Comprehension Score Math Ability Composite = Arithmetic Reasoning Score + Mathematics Knowledge Score Academic Ability Composite = Verbal Ability Composite + Math Ability Composite Your Raw Score is calculated with the following formula: (Word Knowledge Score x 2) + (Paragraph Comprehension Score x 2) + (Arithmetic Reasoning Score) + (Mathematics Knowledge Score) = Raw Score So for example, if you score 20 on Word Knowledge, 10 on Paragraph Comprehension, 20 on Arithmetic Reasoning, and 20 Mathematics Knowledge, your raw score would be 100. The raw score you obtained is also calculated as a Percentile Score. For example, if you scored in the 60th percentile then 40% of the candidates that were tested scored higher than you and 59% had scores that were lower than yours. This score is very important to a recruiter. The last calculation derived from your scores is the Military Careers Score. This score is a combination of Academic Ability Composite score and the Mechanical Comprehension and Electronics Information scores. The score range is 140 to 240 with 200 being about average. A book titled Military Careers will accompany your test results."

( Well, maybe you haven't actually made that decision yet, but you're reading this article, which means you must be interested. ) The Air Force is the youngest of our Nation's military services. It was separated from the Army Air Corps as part of the National Security Act of 1947. The Air Force is also one of the hardest services to join. Why? Well, it seems that the Air Force is the most popular of the military services. They have the highest reenlistment rate of any of the services. In other words, those who join tend to want to stay in after their initial term of service is up. It results in fewer slots for new recruits."

In addition to determining eligibility, the test also determines jobs available to you in each service and enlistment bonus incentives, so you will want to do your best when taking the ASVAB, and before you enlist. Contact a Recruiter!The ASVAB is one of the most widely used, multiple aptitude tests in the world, developed and maintained by the Department of Defense. More than half of all high schools nationwide administer the ASVAB test to students in grades 10, 11 and 12 (sophomores cannot use their scores for enlistment eligibility). Students may also take the test at another school or through a recruiter and may retake the test at any time. How To Prepare For The ASVAB First, the ASVAB measures your accumulated knowledge in different areas. So if you are currently in school, stay focused and study hard. Your overall knowledge gained in school will most likely be reflected in your ASVAB score. Second, though accumulated knowledge is important, you may be able to raise your score by preparing specifically for the ASVAB, especially in areas where you are weak. Various study guides are available for this purpose: ASVAB Secrets Study Guide Free ASVAB Practice Test Questions ASVAB Flashcard Study System ASVAB Career Exploration Program ASVAB Minimum Scores To Enlist To enlist in the military you must achieve a certain score on the ASVAB to be eligible for enlistment, though a waiver may be granted in some circumstances."

Learn about what to expect and what questions to ask. If you are unsure of which service to join, you may want to visit recruiters from all of the services. Tell the recruiter up front that you are visiting all of the recruiters before you make any decision. Bringing a Friend or Relative to Your Recruiting Meeting It's a good idea to bring a parent, relative, or better yet, someone who has served in the military for your first visit. However, make sure it's someone you're comfortable with hearing the answers to the personal questions your recruiter will ask during that first interview. These include, \"\"Have you ever used drugs?\"\" The recruiter asks these questions to make sure he knows your basic qualifications and whether or not he can afford to spend valuable time with you. If you don't want your parents to hear the truthful answer to these questions, you're probably better off going alone. Questions to Ask Your Recruiter It's a good idea to prepare a list of questions to ask, in advance."

Follow 8 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Actually, a good asvab ( really the AFQT ) score, is one that gets you in the military. The afqt score, only uses 4 of the 9 areas tested on the asvab. So you could score really well on the asvab, and still not qualify for most technicial training. On the otherhand, you could score really low on the asvab, barely passing, but still qualify for some of the hardest technicial training, as long as your sub score was high enough.

"text": "What’s the Average ASVAB Score? When most potential recruits get their ASVAB score they wonder how well they did compared to everyone else who took the test. Thankfully, it’s very easy to rank your score against other test takers as your AFQT score is specifically computed to show that ranking. Your AFQT score is a combination of your scores on the following ASVAB subtests: Word Knowledge Paragraph Comprehension Arithmetic Reasoning Mathematics Knowledge However, it’s not computed by simply adding those scores together but by a formula designed to take the scores and convert them to a percentile value. It’s this percentile that represents your ASVAB score and ranks your results in comparison to others. For example, if you score a 60 on the ASVAB that means that you scored higher than 60% of those who took the test (you’re in the 60th percentile). If you score a 90 you scored higher than 90% of those who took the test. So, the average ASVAB score would be the percentile value that puts you right in the middle of everyone who has taken the test or a score of 50 . That score of 50 is also important because it’s the minimum score necessary to qualify for most enlistment bonuses like student load repayment and enlistment bonuses.

"text": "Test Prep ASVAB Test Determining How Your ASVAB Scores Affect Your Enlistment in Job-Training Programs Determining How Your ASVAB Scores Affect Your Enlistment in Job-Training Programs Each service branch has its own individual system of ASVAB scores. Recruiters and military job counselors use these scores, along with other factors such as job availability, security clearance eligibility, medical qualifications, and physical strength, to match potential recruits up with military jobs. When you sit down with your recruiter to discuss your ASVAB scores, you may think he suddenly decided to speak in a foreign language. Don’t get too confused about the terms used for various scores on the ASVAB. For job-qualification purposes, simple is better. Remember three key terms and their definitions: Standard score: A standard score refers to individual ASVAB subtest scores (that is, Verbal Expression, Arithmetic Reasoning, Mathematics Knowledge, and so on). Line score: A line score combines various standard scores that the services use for job qualification purposes. AFQT score: Calculated from the math and English subtests of the ASVAB, the Armed Forces Qualification Test (AFQT) score is used by the military to determine overall enlistment qualification. During the initial enlistment process, your service branch determines your military job or enlistment program based on established minimum line scores. If you get an appropriate score in the appropriate areas, you can get the job you want — as long as that job is available and you meet other qualification factors."

They especially want more multilingual recruits. Since the Army caps the age for enlistment at 35, the Navy and 34 and the Marines at 28, this news makes the Air Force the military branch with the highest allowed recruiting age.

You may be wondering what educational requirements are for enlistment in the Air Force at an older age? As of right now, the requirements remain the same as before. This means Air Force recruits must get at least 36 points on the ASVAB*. Exclusions are created, however, for a few high school graduates that score lower than 36, but higher than 31.

The MEPS where the tests are coordinated usually sends out a representative to discuss the results with those who are interested. When I was an ASVAB test administrator giving the tests at a computer center for prospects brought in by recruiters, I had the results as soon as the prospect finished the tests. I would email the results to the recruiter if they weren’t present at the test center (which they often were).

The ASVAB CEP is currently a pen and paper test. If it is offered by their school, high school students can take the ASVAB CEP test in grades 10, 11 and 12. They can only take it at the high school they attend, unless special arrangements are made. The ASVAB CEP also incorporates an interest self-assessment which can help young adults identify potential careers. If the self-assessment is completed online, students also have access to the OCCU-Find, which outlines over 1,000 occupations for students to explore based on their interest codes. ASVAB CEP test results are sent to students schools so they can explore career options with counselors. The scores show how well the student did on each subject, and how they compare with others who took the test. There are three composite scores in Verbal, Math, and Science and Technical skills, and the Armed Forces Qualification Test (AFQT) score is also reported. The AFQT is the only score reported in both the ASVAB CEP and the enlistment ASVAB."

The MEPS is also the first time you will experience the famous military saying of “hurry up and wait”. You can expect to do a lot of waiting at MEPS, followed by being rushed into various rooms to accomplish required steps of the process, then sent back out to sit in a waiting room for hours at a time. Get used to this process, it is a regular part of the military through basic training and even throughout your entire career. Bring a book or magazine to read during your downtime. A few general tips and rules for MEPS: Wear conservative, comfortable clothing. No offensive writing on t-shirts, no sagging pants, no open-toed shoes, tank tops, halter tops, bare midriffs. Make sure you wear underwear. Don’t wear earrings or other jewelry as it will simply get in the way during tests and the physical exam Hats are not to be worn inside the MEPS building, so it’s easier to not bring one at all. Don’t use profanity or be overly loud or obnoxious in the MEPS building."

Countless hours of hard work and dedication are currently reflected by the top-of-the-line ASVAB practice tests that this nation offers.

The Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery test (ASVAB) is a test that was officially formatted in 1968 with the intention of mentally preparing soldiers with knowledge that identifies with the following: Space perception Numerical operations General information Tool knowledge Coding speed Attention to detail The various armed forces adopted all of those aspects in 1976."

The long one you took was probably a full-length practice test. The AFQT score is a percentile, which means if there were 100 people in a room taking that ASVAB, you would have scored better than 38 of them, which puts you well in the bottom half (not good). The long test you took may have given you a line score, not a percentile score. A line score is just the raw amount of questions you got correct and is only important because you can track it after several attempts and see how you improve. While neither of them \"\"count\"\", the one at your recruiter's office reflects what you will probably get on the real ASVAB. You should definately continue practicing."

"text": "Most companies listed on the ASX report their earnings as at 30 June (full year) and 31 December (interim or half-year). We are now on the eve of full year reports with the expectation that companies will have made their announcements by mid September. As investors this can be a nervous time to enter the market as any unexpected variations in a companies earnings can have a significant impact on its share price. Volumes tend to be thinner and the market seems to have no direction until after the results are announced. There is a strategy that some investors have started to employ that allows them to gain exposure to a rising share price whilst keeping a majority of cash, normally needed to fund the share purchase, in the bank. Importantly, the decision on whether or not to buy the shares is delayed until after the company reports its earnings and its share price stabilises. The strategy uses call options and allows the buyer to lock in the right to purchase shares at a predetermined price before a pre-selected date in the future. The cost to the investor is the options premium that is generally a fraction of the cost of buying the shares. The options premium paid is the most an investor can lose and therefore protects them from a significant fall in a share price as a result of a poor earnings announcement. Let’s look at the following scenario, with no perceived view on the direction of the market this reporting season."

Mitsubishi’s Managing Director, Lance Bradley, commented that,“This is the right car, at the right time, at the right price and specification. The CO2 reducing technologies will appeal to fleets, user-choosers and retail customers alike – indeed, early customer reaction has been very positive with advance orders already taken. “We’re targeting customers who would traditionally buy a C-segment car, such as the VW Golf and Ford Focus, but also people looking to down-size from their SUV or family estate car.

You also need to be able to show how you arrived at these figures – in some cases you may be required to provide written evidence. In order to prepare an accurate tax return and support the claims you make, you need to keep careful records. The records you need to keep depend on your personal circumstances. If you are not sure, it is better to keep too many records than not enough. This guide will provide general advice to help you identify what records you need to keep.

"text": "Australia - Contingent Payments In Takeovers: OSH And Exxon Mobil’s Proposals for IOC. Legal News & Analysis - Asia Pacific - Australia - Corporate/M&A14 August, 2016Summary Often a target company asset may have a value that depends on future events. That may make it hard to agree on acquisition terms. The rival proposals for Inter Oil Corporation (Inter Oil) show two different ways of dealing with this issue, which, in this case, arises due to a potential future payment contingent on the certification of Inter Oil's interest in PRL15 in PNG's Elk-Antelope field. In this article, we examine the key features of the contingent value right (CVR) of Oil Search and the cash contingent resources payment proposed by Exxon Mobil. Inter Oil Corporation is currently the subject of competing acquisition proposals from Oil Search Limited and Exxon Mobil. The consideration offered by both bidders provides contrasting examples of how additional consideration payable on a contingency may be part of an acquisition structure. Under both proposals, the contingent consideration is payable depending on the results of an independent resource certification of the volume of Inter Oil's PRL15 resource in PNG. But the method for achieving this outcome differ markedly between the two proposals. The Oil Search proposal On 20 May 2016, Oil Search and Inter Oil announced that Oil Search would acquire 100% of Inter Oil via a Canadian plan of arrangement."

The important dates that effect dividend entitlements and payments are the:ex-dividend date;the record date; andthe date payable or payment date. Record Date When a company declares a dividend, generally at the same time as its biannual trading results announcement, it also announces a record date (sometimes also known as the books closing date). Dividends are paid to all investors listed on the company’s share register at 5:00pm on this record date. Changes to registration details also need to be made by this time.

By Michael Kemp, Barefoot Blueprint I sat for a day in the cavernous Century Link Center, Omaha's largest entertainment complex, last year as one of more than 35,000 people there to hear Berkshire Hathaway's CEO, Warren Buffett, field questions from shareholders. He answered plenty but one stuck firmly in my mind. A concerned shareholder wanted to know why, with more than $30 billion of cash in the bank and the company's share price sitting at $120,000, the board was not prepared to pay a dividend. A reasonable question given the $200-billion company had not paid a dividend for nearly 50 years. Buffett responded politely as if it was the first time he had been asked the question (it wasn't). He said the share price was $120,000 because of years of profit retention backed up by profitable reinvestment. It meant shareholders had been delivered market-beating returns despite receiving no dividends."

The initial interstate conference was held in 1903, with the exchanges meeting thereafter informally until 1937, at which time the AASE (Australian Associated Stock Exchanges) was set up, with each exchange sending representatives of their own."

"text": "\"FREE Stock Reports Sample our ASX share tips & strategies First Name Email How to Buy Shares in Australia The process of buying and selling shares in Australia is actually rather simple. These days the hardest part is setting up the trading account with your broker. In the past, you could setup an account over the phone and start trading immediately. Now, application forms can be 20+ pages and the terminology confusing for many. Before I go through the steps on how to purchase ASX shares, it is important that every new share investor asks themselves this question. Why do you want to buy shares? If it's to make \"\"a quick buck\"\" then you're looking in the wrong direction. People forget that buying stock in a company means you are actually buying a PART of that company. It's just the same as owning part of the local grocery store. By looking at every investment in this way, it forces you to step back and re-evaluate whether you are buying for the right reasons."

For many investors a key criteria in selecting shares, is whether a company pays dividends and the size of those dividends. Many ASX listed companies pay dividends twice each year, usually as an 'interim' dividend and a 'final' dividend. Companies are not limited to paying twice a year and may pay more or less frequently. A company may also pay a 'special' dividend, related to a particular event. There is no requirement for the company to pay a dividend from earnings, some companies might elect to reinvest the earnings back into the business. How are dividends released? Dividend data is usually available the day after the company has announced the dividend, simply type in the company code to view the last four dividend payments."

"text": "Types of shares Shares may be one of the simplest financial products in which to invest but there are different types of shares traded on ASX with different characteristics. It’s important to understand these distinctions because the characteristics of different types of shares can significantly affect the way you decide to invest. The different types of shares include: Ordinary shares Most shares traded on ASX are ‘ordinary’ shares. Ordinary shares carry no special or preferred rights. Holders of ordinary shares will usually have the right to vote at a general meeting of the company, and to participate in any dividends or any distribution of assets on winding up of the company on the same basis as other ordinary shareholders. Preference shares Preference shares usually give their holder a priority or 'preference' over ordinary shareholders to payments of dividends or on winding up of the company. There are different kinds of preference shares with different rights and characteristics. Holders of preference shares usually have voting rights which are restricted to paricular circumstances or particular resolutions, however this will depend on the terms of the shares. Partly-paid shares Partly-paid shares (also known as contributing shares) are issued without the company requiring payment of the full issue price. At a specified future date or dates, the company is entitled to call for all or part of the outstanding issue price, and the shareholder at the time the call is due is legally obliged to pay the call.

"text": "Reporting season preview Mike King | August 7, 2012August is traditionally the busiest month of the year as the majority of ASX listed companies report their 6 or 12 month results to the end of June 2012. The deadline for reporting is set as the end of August, which is why you may notice many companies report their results in the last few weeks of the month. Some companies, either with fairly simple operations or great accounting systems will report earlier in the month, and some even report as early as July – GUD Holdings Limited (ASX: GUD) and Navitas Limited (ASX: NVT) are examples. Given the weak economic environment, analysts (and many investors) will be eagerly poring over company statements, attending company briefings and presentations in an effort to assess any changes in company fortunes. For many broker analysts, the most important piece of information is not what the company has just reported, but what the company’s outlook is and forecast for the following year. ( After all, if the company forecasts to make a certain amount of profit or revenue in the coming year, that’s pretty easy to plug into their models, rather than having to trying and produce the forecasts themselves). August will see a vast variety of companies reporting results including banks, telcos, utilities, property trusts (or A-REITs as they are now known), retailers, services & financial companies, miners, explorers and your standard industrial companies like Boral Limited (ASX: BLD) and Amcor Limited (ASX: AMC). Novice and expert investors alike, can struggle to work out whether the results are good or not. To help you make sense of company results, we’ve prepared a series of articles on the major sectors. We’ll also be bringing you updates on many of the largest and most popular stocks, as they report."

"text": "\"Not so pretty now! Why market darling Freelancer Ltd’s shares have sunk Tim Mc Arthur | May 22, 2014 | More on: FLNWhat: Shareholders in one-time market darling Freelancer Ltd (ASX: FLN) have watched the company’s shares fall 9% today to an all-time low of 93 cents. The stock is now down over 40% since its ASX listing in November 2013, meaning that anyone who purchased Freelancer shares on-market is underwater. So what: Given that there doesn’t appear to have been any specific bad news to lead to the fall in share price the most likely explanation is that investors are re-assessing the high multiples that they are prepared to pay for technology stocks. With a full year ending in December, the online employment search provider reported an operating profit of $1.1 million in February. When put in the context of a company with a market capitalisation of around $400 million, investors are paying for a lot of assumed future growth. Now what: Investors who didn’t get the opportunity to buy into the IPO at 50 cents per share might very well get the opportunity to buy at prices not too far off if the stock keeps falling. Like fellow online businesses SEEK Limited (ASX: SEK), REA Group Limited (ASX: REA) and Carsales. Com Ltd (ASX: CRZ), the potential of Freelancer is huge. If the company can ultimately monetise its customer base then the long-term returns from this stock could ultimately be substantial."

"text": "\"Adjust Font | Print | RSS | Copyright & Reuse Immigration and the United States: Recession Affects Flows, Prospects for Reform January 20, 2010 Profile By Kristen Mc Cabe, Doris Meissner Immigration, perhaps more than any other social, political, or economic process, has shaped the United States as a nation. The immigration-driven transformation of the country's economic and social landscape has previously occurred during distinct historical periods. Large-scale immigration resumed in earnest in the 1970s and has continued steadily until the recent recession. The recent change in immigration flows has been marked by a slowing of illegal immigration and of employer demand for foreign high-skilled workers. The recession has also diminished a sense of urgency to enact immigration reform legislation. President Barack Obama is on record with a commitment to immigration reform, but he did not place it in his top tier of legislative priorities for the first year of his new presidency. To date, the Obama administration has implemented new strategies for carrying out its immigration enforcement responsibilities regarding employers, detention, and criminal aliens. It has also emphasized naturalization and modernized systems that support legal immigration. Finally, it has broadened border control efforts to emphasize not only immigration but also joint efforts with Mexico to reduce arms trafficking and drug-war violence. This profile examines major legislation and events affecting U. S. immigration, the size and attributes of the immigrant population in the United States, legal and illegal immigration streams, U. S. policies for refugees and asylum seekers, the impact of the recession on immigrants and immigration, immigrant integration efforts, recent immigration enforcement trends, and prospects for comprehensive immigration reform legislation."

There are different categories of aliens: resident and nonresident, immigrant and nonimmigrant, asylee and refugee, documented and undocumented (\"\"illegal\"\"). Overview According to the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), an alien is an individual who does not have U. S. citizenship and is not a U. S. national. The INA defines a national of the United States as one who, while not a citizen, owes permanent allegiance to the United States. One owes personal allegiance to the United States if that person has taken an oath of naturalization. Naturalization occurs when an alien applies for citizenship. They must prove a series of eligibility requirements in order for the Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services to certify the naturalization request. Without receiving naturalized citizenship, a person can live in the United States for decades without officially becoming a \"\"national. \"\" For individuals who possess citizenship at one time but later renounce that citizenship, renunciation renders those individuals aliens. Renouncing one's citizenship requires taking a formal oath of renunciation."

Source Spotlights are often updated as new data become available. Please click here to find the most recent version of this Spotlight. Regardless of whether or not Congress takes decisive action on immigration reform in the near term, immigration will long remain a critical issue due to the fact that it has a profound impact on the U. S. economy and intersects with other public policy areas such as health care, education, the labor market, and national security. This Spotlight seeks to provide answers to the most frequently asked questions on the subject of immigration and immigrant integration. For example: Where are immigrants primarily from? How many immigrants come each year? How many are already here? How many became U. S. citizens last year? Do they have health insurance?"

"text": "What is a Reentry Permit (or Travel Document)? A reentry permit is a permission from U. S. Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) to a U. S. lawful permanent resident (LPR) or a conditional permanent resident to reenter the U. S. after an extended period of stay abroad. Normally, LPRs are expected to reside in the U. S. on a permanent basis. However, in many circumstances, an LPR needs to travel frequently or to reside abroad for an extended period of time ranging from a few months to a few years and the reentry permit is the document which would allow its LPR holder to maintain their LPR status while spending time abroad. The actual reentry permit looks a bit like a U. S. passport – a booklet with a tamper-proof photo page with biographic information and a number of stamp pages. Generally, a reentry permit can help prevent two types of problems: (a) your Permanent Resident Card becoming technically invalid for reentry into the U. S., if you are absent from the U. S. for one (1) year or more or (b) your U. S. permanent residence being considered as abandoned for absences shorter than one (1) year if you take up residence in another country. In certain cases, LPRs who do not have a valid passport can obtain a reentry permit for international travel in lieu of a passport. A reentry permit establishes a presumption that its holder did not abandon their U. S. permanent residency, and it allows its holder to apply for admission to the U. S. after traveling abroad for a period of up to two years, without having to obtain a returning resident visa. Reentry permits are normally valid for 2 years from the date of issuance. Extensions are possible in almost all cases."

S. government principally responsible in matters dealing with aliens in the United States. This includes giving it jurisdiction over aspects of asylum and withholding of removal. Prior to March of 2003, the USCIS was called the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS). For a brief period of time, it was known as the Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services (BCIS). It is also sometimes just referred to as the CIS. For purposes of this web site, we use the current accepted name of U. S. Citizenship and Immigration Services or USCIS.

"text": "02Dec What Is a Public Charge? By: Katherine On: December 2, 2016 In: Adjusting Status, Immigration Comments: 1Spread the love For over 100 years, immigrants classified as public charges have been inadmissible to the United States. Public charges rely on government assistance. But what exactly is the definition of a public charge, and could receiving any benefits hurt an immigrant’s chance of becoming a US citizen? Definition of a Public Charge“Public charge” is a term used in immigration law to describe an individual who cannot support himself or herself through employment, assets or the help of family and instead depends on government benefits and assistance programs. To determine whether a person is a public charge, United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) looks at a number of factors, including age, assets, career skills, education, financial status, health and the status of the immigrant’s family. Benefits Considered When Determining a Public Charge USCIS also checks to see if an immigrant will require long-term institutional care or if an individual has used welfare programs like Supplemental Security Income (SSI), Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) or other General Assistance programs. Use of these programs, especially short-term use of these programs, does not automatically disqualify someone from obtaining permanent residence. The USCIS evaluates each individual on a case-by-case basis. Benefits Not Considered When Determining a Public Charge There are many benefit programs that cannot be used to determine whether an immigrant is a public charge."

Through a synthesis of existing information, supplemented by in-depth visits to purposively selected sites, the study aims to identify and describe federal, state, and local program eligibility provisions related to immigrants, major barriers (such as language and family structure) to immigrants access to health and human services for which they are legally eligible, and innovative or promising practices that can help states manage their programs. Background Immigrants access to health and human services is shaped by complex federal rules on eligibility and differences in state and local policy and practice. [ 1] The 1996 Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA), also known as welfare reform, introduced restrictions for federal means-tested benefits related to immigration status and length of U. S. residence. Welfare reform and later legislation set parameters for states use of federal and state funding and increased states authority in administering public benefit programs. The resulting federal and state provisions regarding immigrants access to health and human services have created a patchwork of complicated and often confusing eligibility rules, and in policies and practices that vary across benefit programs and states. These complexities in eligibility provisions and state and local variation in policy and implementation create the need for a timely and up-to-date study that describes the policy context affecting immigrant access to public benefits."

"text": "\"Printer Friendly Send to Friend Asylum Introduction Adjustment to Permanent Residency Eligibility Application Procedure Traveling Outside the United States Introduction Asylum may be granted to people who are already in the United States and are unable or unwilling to return their home country because of persecution or a well-founded fear of persecution on account of race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion. If you are granted asylum, you will be allowed to live and work in the United States. You also will be able to apply for permanent resident status one year after you are granted asylum. Asylum status and refugee status are closely related. They differ only in the place where a person asks for the status asylum is asked for in the United States; refugee status is asked for outside of the United States. However, all people who are granted asylum must meet the definition of a refugee. The Refugee Act of 1980 regulates U. S. asylum policy as well as governing refugee procedures. The Act, for the first time, established a statutory basis for granting asylum in the United States consistent with the 1967 United Nations Protocol on Refugees. Adjustments to Permanent Residency No limits are set on the number of individuals who may be granted asylum in the United States. Under immigration law, approved asylums must reside in the United States for 1 year following their approval in order to be eligible to apply for adjustment to lawful permanent resident status."

"text": "Refugees and Asylees in the United States June 7, 2017 Spotlight By Jie Zong and Jeanne Batalova A Burundian refugee family outside their home in Boise, Idaho. ( Photo: Giuseppe Saitta/IRC)Fewer than 1 percent of formally recognized refugees worldwide are resettled annually, with about 125,600 individuals departing to resettlement countries in 2016. The United States has historically led the world in terms of refugee resettlement, and today remains the top resettlement country. In fiscal year (FY) 2016, the United States resettled 84,994 refugees. Beyond accepting refugees for resettlement from countries of first asylum, the United States also grants humanitarian protection to asylum seekers who present themselves at U. S. ports of entry or claim asylum from within the country; in FY 2015 (the most recent data available), the United States granted asylum to 26,124 individuals. Global mass displacement reached a record high of 65.3 million people by the end of 2015, according to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). Approximately 21.3 million of these individuals were refugees, 40.8 million were internally displaced persons (IDPs), and 3.2 million were asylum seekers. The ongoing civil war in Syria alone has led 4.9 million Syrians to seek refuge in neighboring countries, most notably Turkey and Lebanon, and caused 6.6 million to be internally displaced. In response to the worsening global humanitarian crisis, the Obama administration increased the number of refugees the United States accepts annually, from 85,000 in fiscal year (FY) 2016 to 110,000 in FY 2017. Since assuming office in January 2017, President Donald Trump has issued executive orders to cut the refugee admission ceiling for FY 2017 from 110,000 to 50,000, and to suspend the refugee resettlement program for 120 days."

The plane does not have to be parallel to the axis of the cone; the hyperbola will be symmetrical in any case. Hyperbola (red): features In mathematics, a hyperbola (plural hyperbolas or hyperbolae) is a type of smooth curve lying in a plane, defined by its geometric properties or by equations for which it is the solution set. A hyperbola has two pieces, called connected components or branches, that are mirror images of each other and resemble two infinite bows. The hyperbola is one of the three kinds of conic section, formed by the intersection of a plane and a double cone. ( The other conic sections are the parabola and the ellipse. A circle is a special case of an ellipse.) If the plane intersects both halves of the double cone but does not pass through the apex of the cones, then the conic is a hyperbola. Hyperbolas arise in many ways:as the curve representing the function in the Cartesian plane,as the path followed by the shadow of the tip of a sundial,as the shape of an open orbit (as distinct from a closed elliptical orbit), such as the orbit of a spacecraft during a gravity assisted swing-by of a planet or more generally any spacecraft exceeding the escape velocity of the nearest planet,as the path of a single-apparition comet (one travelling too fast ever to return to the solar system),as the scattering trajectory of a subatomic particle (acted on by repulsive instead of attractive forces but the principle is the same),and so on. Each branch of the hyperbola has two arms which become straighter (lower curvature) further out from the center of the hyperbola."

"text": "Introduction to the Gamma Function General The gamma function is used in the mathematical and applied sciences almost as often as the well-known factorial symbol. It was introduced by the famous mathematician L. Euler (1729) as a natural extension of the factorial operation from positive integers to real and even complex values of the argument. This relation is described by the following formula: L. Euler derived some basic properties and formulas for the gamma function. He started investigations of from the infinite productand the integralwhich is currently known as the beta function integral. As a result, Euler derived the following integral representation for factorial:which can be easily converted into the well-known Euler integral for the gamma function: Also, during his research, Euler closely approached the famous reflection formula:which later got his name. At the same time, J. Stirling (1730) found the famous asymptotic formula for the factorial, which bears his name. This formula was also naturally applied to the gamma function resulting in the following asymptotic relation: Later, A. M. Legendre (1808, 1814) suggested the current symbol Γ for the gamma function and discovered the duplication formula: It was generalized by C. F. Gauss (1812) to the multiplication formula: F. W. Newman (1848) studied the reciprocal of the gamma function and found that it is an entire function and has the following product representation valid for the whole complex plane:where is the Euler–Mascheroni gamma constant. B. Riemann (1856) proved an important relation between the gamma and zeta functions:which was mentioned centuries ago in an article by Euler (1749) for particular values of the argument. K. Weierstrass (1856) and other nineteenth century mathematicians widely used the gamma function in their investigations and discovered many more complicated properties and formulas for it. In particular, H. Hankel (1864, 1880) derived its contour integral representation for complex arguments, and O. Hölder (1887) proved that the gamma function does not satisfy any algebraic differential equation."

Given a particular function, there is actually a 2-step procedure we can use to find the horizontal asymptote. Learn what that is in this lesson along with the rules that horizontal asymptotes follow. Definitions Before getting into the definition of a horizontal asymptote, let's first go over what a function is. A function is an equation that tells you how two things relate. Usually, functions tell you how y is related to x. Functions are often graphed to provide a visual. A horizontal asymptote is a horizontal line that tells you how the function will behave at the very edges of a graph. A horizontal asymptote is not sacred ground, however. The function can touch and even cross over the asymptote. Horizontal asymptotes exist for functions where both the numerator and denominator are polynomials."

More to the point, this is a fraction. Can we have a zero in the denominator of a fraction? No. So if I set the denominator of the above fraction equal to zero and solve, this will tell me the values that x can not be:x 2 – 5 x – 6 = 0 ( x – 6) ( x + 1) = 0x = 6 or –1So x cannot be 6 or –1, because then I'd be dividing by zero. Now let's look at the graph of this rational function: You can see how the graph avoided the vertical lines x = 6 and x = –1. This avoidance occurred because x cannot be equal to either –1 or 6.

Whereas, in a hyperbola the difference between the foci and point on hyperbola is fixed. Therefore, a hyperbola is the set of all points (x, y) in a plane, where the differences between the foci and a point on hyperbola is fixed. A hyperbola can also be defined as the locus of all points of the plane whose distances to two fixed points is constant. Hyperbola is a smooth curve and an unbounded case of the conic section, formed by the intersection of a plane with both halves of a double cone.

This page uses ideas from Wothke, from SEMNET messages, and from my own experience. The Problem There are four situations in which a researcher may get a message about a matrix being \"\"not positive definite.\"\" The four situations can be very different in terms of their causes and cures. First, the researcher may get a message saying that the input covariance or correlation matrix being analyzed is \"\"not positive definite.\"\" Generalized least squares (GLS) estimation requires that the covariance or correlation matrix analyzed must be positive definite, and maximum likelihood (ML) estimation will also perform poorly in such situations. If the matrix to be analyzed is found to be not positive definite, many programs will simply issue an error message and quit. Second, the message may refer to the asymptotic covariance matrix. This is not the covariance matrix being analyzed, but rather a weight matrix to be used with asymptotically distribution-free / weighted least squares (ADF/WLS) estimation."

A circle is a special case of an ellipse.) If the plane intersects both halves of the double cone but does not pass through the apex of the cones, then the conic is a hyperbola. Hyperbolas arise in many ways: * as the curve representing the function in the Cartesian plane, * as the path followed by the shadow of the tip of a sundial, * as the shape of an open orbit (as distinct from a closed elliptical orbit), such as the orbit of a spacecraft during a gravity assisted swing-by of a planet or more generally any spacecraft exceeding the escape velocity of the nearest planet, * as the path of a single-apparition comet (one travelling too fast ever to return to the solar system), * as the scattering trajectory of a subatomic particle (acted on by repulsive instead of attractive forces but the principle is the same), * in radio navigation, when the difference between distances to two points, but not the distances themselves, can be determined, and so on. Each branch of the hyperbola has two arms which become straighter (lower curvature) further out from the center of the hyperbola. Diagonally opposite arms, one from each branch, tend in the limit to a common line, called the asymptote of those two arms. So there are two asymptotes, whose intersection is at the center of symmetry of the hyperbola, which can be thought of as the mirror point about which each branch reflects to form the other branch."

In other words, R ( x) is a rational function if R ( x) = p ( x) / q ( x) where p ( x) and q ( x) are both polynomials.

The design model uses application software components which are linked through an abstract component, named the virtual function bus. The application software components are the smallest pieces of application software that still have a certain functionality. The software of an application can then be composed by using different application software-components. Standardized interfaces for all the application software components necessary to build the different automotive applications are specified in the AUTOSAR -standards. By only defining the interfaces, there is still freedom in the way of obtaining the functionality. The virtual function bus connects the different software components in the design model.

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

Just wait until you need to upgrade your system memory. We go inside Random-Access Memory (RAM) with a special focus on DRAM, which is - for now, anyway - the most common and affordable variety. Often referred to as main memory RAM is the acronym for Random Access Memory. It is a type of computer memory that can, as its name implies, be accessed randomly. That is, any byte of memory can be accessed without touching the preceding bytes. RAM is the \"\"working memory\"\" storage area within the computer. All data on the computer is stored on the hard drive, but in order for the CPU to work with the data during normal operations, the data the computer uses and works with is read into the working memory, which is the RAM chips. There are two different types of RAM; DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory) and SRAM (Static Random Access Memory). The two types differ in the technology they use to hold data, with DRAM being the more common type."

"text": "\"javascript September 30, 2014 By Ravi Using Require JS in Angular JS Applications Related Topics: APIsj Query Tools & Libraries Node.jsnpm More... While writing large Java Script applications, one of the simplest things one can do is divide the code base into several files. Doing this improves maintainability of the code but increases the chances of missing or misplacing the script tag on your main HTML document. Keeping track of the dependencies becomes difficult as the number of files increases. This issue persists in large Angular JS applications as well. We have a number of tools in place that take care of loading dependencies in the application. In this article, we will see how to use Require JS with Angular JS to make the job of loading dependencies simpler. We’ll also examine how to use Grunt to generate combined files containing the Require JS modules. A Brief Introduction to Require JSRequire JS is a Java Script library that helps in lazily loading Java Script dependencies. Modules are just Java Script files with some Require JS syntactic sugar in them. Require JS implements Asynynchronous Modules specified by Common JS."

"text": "\"Consumer Electronics Mobile Phones & Plans Which waves are used in Bluetooth?types of waves and how it works? Follow 6 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Radio. Bluetooth is a high-speed, low-power microwave wireless link technology, designed to connect phones, laptops, PDAs and other portable equipment together with little or no work by the user. Unlike infra-red, Bluetooth does not require line-of-sight positioning of connected units. The technology uses modifications of existing wireless LAN techniques but is most notable for its small size and low cost. The current prototype circuits are contained on a circuit board 0.9cm square, with a much smaller single chip version in development. The cost of the device is expected to fall very fast, from $20 initially to $5 in a year or two. It is envisioned that Bluetooth will be included within equipment rather than being an optional extra. When one Bluetooth product comes within range of another, (this can be set to between 10cm and 100m) they automatically exchange address and capability details. They can then establish a 1 megabit/s link (up to 2 Mbps in the second generation of the technology) with security and error correction, to use as required."

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

You may want to use an asynchronous UDF if the operation may wait on a query or calculation, which can be an issue for network operations. In such a case, instead of blocking Excel on each call, you could start many asynchronous operations in parallel. The example bases its asynchronous UDF on the following synchronous UDF, Xll Echo. Xll Echo simulates an external operation and takes one second to complete a calculation. The function takes a single parameter, sleeps for one second, and returns the original input value (multiplied by 2 if it is a number).

This is something nearly all other languages come with out of the box, whether it be Ruby’s require, Python’s import, or any other language you’re familiar with. Even CSS has @import! Java Script has nothing of that sort, and this has caused problems for application developers as they go from working with small websites to full client-side applications. Let’s be clear: it doesn’t mean the new module system in the upcoming version of Java Script won’t be useful to you if you’re building smaller websites rather than the next Instagram. Thankfully, the lack of a module system will soon be a problem of the past. The next version of Java Script, ECMAS cript 6, will bring with it a full-featured module and dependency management solution for Java Script. The bad news is that it won’t be landing in browsers for a while yet – but the good news is that the specification for the module system and how it will look has been finalised. The even better news is that there are tools available to get it all working in browsers today without too much hassle. In this post I’d like to give you the gift of JS modules and show you the syntax, and how to use them in browsers today."

Bluetooth ACLThe ACL or Asynchronous Connectionless Communications Link is possible the most widely used form of Bluetooth link. The ACL Bluetooth link is used for carrying framed data - i.e. data submitted from an application to logical link control and adaptation protocol channel. The channel may support either unidirectional or bidirectional Bluetooth data transfer. There is a variety of different ACL formats that can be used - most of them incorporate forward error coding, FEC as well as header error correction to detect and correct errors that may occur in the radio link. The Asynchronous Bluetooth link provides connections for most applications within Bluetooth. Data transfers like this are normally supported by profiles which allow the data to be incorporated into frames and transferred to the other end of the Bluetooth link where it is extracted from the frames and passed to the relevant application.

"text": "Abstract Neurotransmitter release from presynaptic nerve terminals is a central component of synaptic transmission, the main process by which neurons communicate with each other and with target cells. Neurotransmitter is packaged inside small vesicles in the presynaptic nerve terminal. When an action potential invades the nerve terminal, voltage‐gated calcium channels open and calcium flows into the cell. The influx of calcium triggers the fusion of the neurotransmitter‐filled synaptic vesicles with the cell membrane, thereby releasing their contents into the synaptic cleft. In addition to action potential‐evoked release, neurotransmitter can also be released ‘spontaneously’ in the absence of action potential firing. Although evoked and spontaneous release share many features, there is growing evidence that they may serve different functions and might be modulated through different signalling pathways, adding richness to the synaptic repertoire. Key Concepts Neurotransmitter release is the main mechanism by which neurons communicate with one another and with muscles—without neurotransmission, we could not sense our environment, think or act. Neurotransmitter release is tightly regulated, and is very rapidly triggered by the firing of an action potential, which depolarises the presynaptic terminal and causes the influx of calcium ions. Neurotransmitter release is probabilistic; only a fraction of action potentials succeed in triggering release of neurotransmitter from any particular release site. Calcium ions are the critical signal that coordinates the molecular interactions responsible for fusion of neurotransmitter‐filled synaptic vesicles with the plasma membrane."

Audio levels display on a digital audio recorder ( Zoom H4n)Digital audio is audio, or simply sound, signal that has been recorded as or converted into digital form, where the sound wave of the audio signal is encoded as numerical samples in continuous sequence, typically at CD audio quality which is 16 bit sample depth over 44.1 thousand samples per second. Digital audio is the name for the entire technology of sound recording and reproduction using audio signals that have been encoded in digital form. Following significant advances in digital audio technology during the 1970s, it gradually replaced analog audio technology in many areas of audio engineering and telecommunications in the 1990s and 2000s. In a digital audio system, sound of an analog electrical signal is converted with an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) into a digital signal, typically using pulse-code modulation. This digital signal can then be recorded, edited, modified, and copied using digital audio workstation computers, audio playback machines and other digital tools. When the sound engineer wishes to listen to the recording on headphones or loudspeakers (or when a consumer wishes to listen to a digital sound file of a song), a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) performs the reverse process, converting a digital signal back into an analog signal, through an audio power amplifier and sending it to a loudspeaker."

It has a capacity of 1 megabit equivalent of 2^20 bits or 128 k B. [1]Dynamic random-access memory ( DRAM) is a type of random accesssemiconductor memory that stores each bit of data in a separate tiny capacitor within an integrated circuit. The capacitor can either be charged or discharged; these two states are taken to represent the two values of a bit, conventionally called 0 and 1. The electric charge on the capacitors slowly leaks off, so without intervention the data on the chip would soon be lost. To prevent this, DRAM requires an external memory refresh circuit which periodically rewrites the data in the capacitors, restoring them to their original charge. Because of this refresh requirement, it is a dynamic memory as opposed to static random-access memory (SRAM) which does not require data to be refreshed. Unlike flash memory, DRAM is volatile memory (vs. non-volatile memory ), since it loses its data quickly when power is removed. However, DRAM does exhibit limited data remanence."

The information gathered at these appointments depends on how far along you are in your pregnancy. First trimester: This ultrasound helps determine how far along you are and lets you know whether you are pregnant with more than one baby. This visit can also identify birth defects surrounding the brain or spinal cord. Second trimester: With this ultrasound, your technician can estimate the gestational age of the fetus while observing the baby's length, weight and position. Major defects can be detected at this appointment. Third trimester: Ultrasounds conducted during the third trimester confirm that the baby is moving and examine how he or she is positioned. Height and weight measurements provide a good indication of the anticipated birth weight. Estimating prenatal weight Your baby's fetal weight is typically calculated by your doctor or an ultrasound technician and, in most cases, is done so in grams."

Madeline Mann is now 22 and a college student. When she was born in 1989, at nearly 27 weeks, she was the world's smallest surviving infant at 9.9 oz. In 2004, Rumaisa Rahman, a twin, weighed just 9.2 oz when she was born at nearly 26 weeks and became the world's smallest surviving newborn. She still holds that record today. In a follow-up study published in the journal Pediatrics, doctors at Loyola described the girls' progress since their birth. Both Madeline and Rumaisa developed normal motor and speech abilities and so far, have no chronic health problems. They are also both much smaller than peers their age.

"text": "\"If your vet is not attending your mare's foaling, knowing the correct approximate size of the offspring helps you discern whether the foal needs immediate veterinary attention. Lifting the newborn foal up to weigh yourself and him, then subtracting your pounds, is not the only method of weight determination. Normal Birth Weights No matter the breed, foals weigh approximately 10 percent of their mother's weight at birth. That means the typical 1,000 pound thoroughbred mare gives birth to a 100 pound foal, the 1,500 pound warmblood mare's foal is about 150 pounds and the 2,000 pound draft mare's offspring weighs 200 pounds. These proportional weights hold true even if the mare is bred to a larger or smaller stallion. Birth Factors Foals born to first-time mothers are generally smaller than those of older, experienced dams. The normal gestation period in a horse ranges from 335 to 345 days. Those foals born before day 335 tend to be smaller, but those born after day 345 are not significantly larger. At birth, there does not appear to be much difference between the weights of fillies and colts, according to Kentucky Equine Research. Placenta It's important to make sure that your mare expelled all of the placenta after delivering the foal."

There's one thing you can expect at every well-child visit: Your baby will be weighed and measured. Your child's practitioner will then plot these measurements on infant growth charts, which help doctors keep tabs on a child's growth, both over time and compared to national averages. Although your child's pediatrician is on the lookout for any drastic increases or decreases over a short period of time, know that it's often totally fine to have a not-so-average growth curve. What do infant growth charts measure? Infant growth charts measure: Weight Head circumference Height, known as recumbent length At each visit your pediatrician will plot your child's measurements on a growth curve to monitor them over time. What does \"\"percentile\"\" mean on a baby's growth chart? The percentiles you've probably heard so much about are derived from a chart of average heights, weights and head sizes. Developed by the World Health Organization (WHO), the percentiles on infant growth charts are based on surveys of 19,000 breastfed children (in five different cities in five countries, who grew up in optimal conditions). Both the CDC and AAP recommend doctors use the WHO charts for babies under age 2."

"text": "\"Low Birthweight What is low birthweight? Low birthweight is a term used to describe babies who are born weighing less than 2,500 grams (5 pounds, 8 ounces). In contrast, the average newborn weighs about 8 pounds. Over 8 percent of all newborn babies in the United States have low birthweight. The overall rate of these very small babies in the United States is increasing. This is primarily due to the greater numbers of multiple birth babies who are more likely to be born early and weigh less. Over half of multiple birth babies have low birthweight compared with only about 6 percent of single birth babies. Babies with low birthweight look much smaller than other babies of normal birthweight. A low birthweight baby's head may appear to be bigger than the rest of the body, and he or she often looks thin with little body fat. What causes low birthweight?"

How is a preterm birth different from a full-term birth, anyway? Experts Dr. Craig Rubens and Kelli Kelley weigh in. You know your pregnancy is supposed to last nine months, but you're a few months shy of your due date and have been recently told that you're at risk for delivering prematurely. What does this mean? What is the difference between full-term and premature birth? Preterm Birth A preterm birth is one that occurs before 37 weeks of gestation, more than three weeks before the baby's normal gestation period of 40 weeks. Often used interchangeably with the term \"\"premature,\"\" there are different levels of premature births -- according to the World Health Organization, a baby born before 28 weeks is considered \"\"extremely preterm,\"\" one born after 28 weeks but before 32 weeks is \"\"very preterm\"\" and a baby born after 32 weeks but before 37 weeks is \"\"late preterm.\"\" Premature births are much more common than you'd think. \"\""

From this moment on, it will take approximately nine months for the baby to develop and be ready to be born. Babies come into this world one of three ways – early (premature), on time (born at the expected time), or late (after the expected due date). All babies, regardless of when they arrive, must go through the same developmental stages – usually a nine-month cycle. Let’s examine what happens before birth.

The prenatal period (gestation) encompasses the time from conception, the moment a male sperm cell enters a female egg cell, until the birth of a full-term infant, about 38 to 42 weeks later. During the first 2 weeks after conception, the fertilized egg (ovum) divides repeatedly, forming a mass of cells that enters the woman's uterus, the female reproductive organ that protects the developing organism. The mass of cells buries itself into the nutrient-rich lining of the uterus and continues to develop. For the next 6 weeks, the rapidly dividing mass of cells, called an embryo, increases in size and forms organs. Eight weeks after conception, the developing human being is referred to as a fetus During the first 2 weeks after conception, the fertilized egg divides repeatedly, forming a mass of cells that eventually enters the uterus and buries itself into the organ's nutrient-rich lining. From 14 days through 8 weeks after conception, the rapidly dividing mass of cells is called an embryo. Eight weeks after conception and until its birth, the developing human being is referred to as a fetus. During the first trimester, the embryo/fetus develops most of its organs, and by the end of this period, the fetus can move. The first trimester is a critical stage in human development because nutrient deficiencies or excesses and exposure to toxic compounds, such as alcohol, are most likely to have devastating effects on the embryo/fetus."

The included chart can help you understand the different weeks, months and trimesters of pregnancy. How Many Weeks Pregnant Am I? Since it is nearly impossible to know the exact day that your ovaries released an egg and you conceived, doctors cannot accurately count the weeks of pregnancy from the estimated date of conception. In order to count the approximate weeks of pregnancy you will need to know the first day of your last menstrual period. Pregnancy due dates are counted 40 weeks from the first day of your last period. For example, if you are pregnant and it’s been 21 days from the first day of your last menstruation, then you are 3 weeks pregnant, even thought it may be less than 3 weeks that your baby has developed in you because you can only get pregnant after you ovulate, which would be around day 14 of your menstrual period.

Human faces are one of an infant's favorite and fascinating things to observe, especially when it's mom or dad or his own image staring back at him in a mirror. By 3-months-old, most babies know the difference between familiar faces and strange ones. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Mom Is Typically First In Line A newborn stares at his mother's face during breastfeeding and also becomes familiar with mom's unique features if being bottle-fed. An infant typically quickly comes to recognize his mother and connects her with love and affection because she meets his needs. A baby also recognizes dad and other family members she comes in contact with regularly. Strangers are a curious lot for the typical 3-month-old, explains Kids Health.org, a website published by the Nemours Foundation. She may keep a watchful eye on unfamiliar faces and examine their many curious expressions. What Looks Have To Do With It Once your baby comes to recognize extended family members, like his maternal and paternal grandmothers, he may stare longer at the one he finds most attractive. Babies are just like adults when it comes to preferring a good-looking face over a less-attractive one, according to a 2004 study by the University of Exeter in England."

Pregnancy symptoms start after implantation. So if sperm meets egg (during the time of ovulation) it will get fertilised and will divide itself into different cells. This fertilised egg will travel through your Fallopian tube into the uterus and then embed itself into the wall of the uterus. ( The uterus will prepare a bed will blood and other tissue to protect the egg.) so this egg embeds itself into this bed. During the embedding there will little bleeding.

"text": "What Age Should a Baby Start Reaching Her Arms Out for You?by BROOKE JULIA Dec. 15, 2015It's a wonderful moment when your baby first reaches for you. Not only is it an obvious sign that she's physically capable of doing it, it also means she's come to recognize you as a person she needs and trusts. Reaching out for you is usually a sign she's ready to be picked up and cuddled. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Vision and Development There are two reasons newborns don't reach for you right away. The first is they simply don't have the motor control to move with purpose. The second is babies are born with better peripheral vision than focus vision. When your baby can see you more clearly, you'll notice his interactions with you will increase. Reaching Babies may begin reaching for objects as early as three months, according to Parenting.com. Early on, her reaching will be more general. Her world is full of fascinating objects, and as soon as she learns she can touch and examine them at will, she'll have her hands on everything."

D., all rights reserved Whether you think it's cute, or it makes you squirm, baby talk is a compelling scientific phenomenon. All around the world, people use a special register when they speak to the very young. This \"\"infant-directed speech,\"\" or IDS, is recognizable for its higher pitch and more melodic, emotionally-charged tone. These features capture a baby's attention, and make it easier for her to grasp the emotional intentions of speech. In fact, fascinating experiments show that adults listening to a foreign language are better able to pick up on a speaker's emotions when he uses infant-directed speech. You can read more about it in this article on the attention-getting and emotional functions of baby talk. But what about language development? Does infant-directed speech help babies learn how to talk? Infant-directed speech includes many modifications that seem tailor-made for the language learner: It’s slower, more repetitive, and more likely to exaggerate the pronunciation of vowels."

"text": "When do babies start talking? Parents will no doubt be eager to know the answer. Babies usually learn to talk in the first two years of life. Your baby’s first words are always very memorable and definitely a milestone that you look forward to. Long way before the first word is said, a baby learns to talk using the tongue, lips, palate and any emerging teeth to make sounds which gradually transform into words through baby’s picking up of words from the people around them. When Do Babies Start Talking? The non-verbal talking that baby does soon after the birth is also a form of talking. It includes grimaces, crying and squirming which are used to express various emotions like fear, hunger and frustration. Physical needs are also expressed by such non-verbal cues. A baby will start making sounds like 'mama' and 'dada' by the age of 9 months; however, the baby is still a bit far from associating them with mother and father."

New parents who are eagerly awaiting the day when their baby makes eye contact often wonder when their baby will reach this level of development. While babies all develop differently, most do meet developmental milestones, such as eye contact, on a fairly similar schedule. Being a little early or late usually doesn't impact overall development and doesn't change the bond that blossoms between parent and child when you can finally see in his eyes that your child recognizes and adores you. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Timing Parents typically notice the first direct eye contact from their baby at around 6 to 8 weeks of age. However, there is a much wider range that is still considered normal, and some perfectly normal, healthy babies don't initiate eye contact until 3 months of age. Babies do recognize eye contact from parents as early as two days after birth, according to a 2002 study in the \"\"Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.\"\" The newborns in the study preferred to look at faces of people who were looking directly at them instead of those with an averted gaze.

So the fetus cannot be called sentient, self aware, conscious being until this point, it is more of a reflexive low level organism until then. Medically a adult with this kind of brain would be considered under the \"\"brain dead - fit for organ donation\"\" category. After this point, a fetus can survive and grow into a functional human with all brain functions intact - if modern medical facilities and care is provided. So Week 23-30 would be a good beginning for self aware, conscious definition. True consciousness and self awareness is hard to define - a case can even be made that it happens only after birth ( Aleksander Miller's answer) so it depends.

You may be wondering just when, during your pregnancy, your tiny baby can start feeling, smelling, tasting, hearing and see. You will be surprised to know that it is a lot earlier than you think!Your Baby’s Senses – When do they develop? Your baby’s senses begin to develop from the moment of conception with all the senses established by week 8 (gestational age) but maturing at varies rates. What this means is that although the senses begin to develop very early on, they only really start functioning properly later in your pregnancy. What is The First Sense a Baby Develops in The Womb? Before you even knew you were pregnant, at just 3 weeks after conception, your baby’s first sense to develop is the sense of touch. The skin, which contains millions of sensory receptors, is the sensory organ for touch. Research done by Montagu (1978) with a single light hair stroke on the embryo, showed that just before 8 weeks gestational age, “the first sensitivity to touch manifests in a set of protective movements to avoid a mere hair stroke on the cheek”. Skin sensitivity then extends to:• The genital areas by 10 weeks gestational age,• The palms by 11 weeks gestational age,• The soles of the feet by 12 weeks gestational age,• The abdomen and buttocks by 17 weeks gestational age and• The entire body with the exception of the top of the head by 32 weeks gestational age."

Most literacy researchers agree that there’s a limit to how young you can go and that in infancy and toddlerhood it makes no sense to try to start formal reading instruction. Don’t tell that to Janet Doman, director of a small organization called the Institutes for Achievement of Human Potential in Philadelphia. Doman is trying to spread the idea that the process of learning to read can start in babyhood. She suggests that parents train their babies by holding up cards with words written in large letters while speaking the words. Her father, Glenn Doman, is the Institutes’ founder and co-author of a decades-old, self-published book, How to Teach Your Baby to Read. To serious researchers, the Domans’ ideas are disturbingly devoid of any basis in mainstream science and appear to rely entirely on anecdotal evidence.

Learn how you can help your infants and toddlers develop strong relationships with the people in their lives. Relationship-building describes the process of establishing emotional connections with others, starting from birth, which are based on trust and intimacy. Through relationships, children discover who they are and learn to understand others. When young children experience people helping, understanding, and enjoying them, they approach the world with openness and enthusiasm, and they grow to be responsive and caring people. Babies are born with a drive to relate to and connect with others, and they continue to develop the social skills necessary to form strong, healthy relationships throughout their lives: A newborn gazes at her mother’s face as she breastfeeds. She recognizes her mother as the special, loving person who is always there for her, and calms down almost immediately when her mother picks her up and holds her close. This baby is learning that she is loved and that she can trust others to care for her and treat her well. A 6-month-old laughs and laughs as his father holds a napkin over his face, and then drops it to say, “Peek-a-boo!” Whenever his father tries to put the napkin back on the table, the baby says, “eh, eh, eh” to let his father know he wants him will hold up that silly napkin again."

In so many books, articles and news programs, you hear the statistic — approximately 10 to 15% of women suffer from postpartum mood disorders (PPMDs), including postpartum depression (PPD), postpartum anxiety/OCD and postpartum psychosis. What bothers me about that statistic is that it holds no meaning for most people, and because of that I think these illnesses get much less funding and attention than so many of the other prevalent illnesses that strike Americans. As a result, I decided to do a bit of quick, non-scientific research to look at the real numbers and to help people understand the real impact that postpartum depression is having on the women of our country. There were approximately 4.3 million live births in the United States in 2007. This statistic does not include fetal losses, including miscarriages and stillbirths.

First-time moms may not feel these movements as early as second-time moms. Some moms, especially those in their first pregnancy, may not feel movement until 18-20 weeks. Remember that each woman and every pregnancy is different, so you may not feel movement as early as another woman. There is a broad range of when the first detection of movement can be felt, ranging from 13-25 weeks. Why does my baby move?

You will almost certainly feel the baby making contact with the cervix once the baby has started to engage (starts to enter the pelvis in preparation for birth); when a baby is fully engaged, his or her head will press directly on the cervix. Some mothers will find the baby making contact with the cervix more uncomfortable than others, and for a few it may be somewhat painful. For most women, the sensation is simply unusual.44 people found this useful Was this answer useful? Yes Somewhat No When can you feel the baby kick? Sometime between 16 and 22 weeks, you'll start to feel your babymove. ."

"text": "\"Even in the womb, an active baby is a healthy baby!Even though fetal movements begin at about 7 to 8 weeks’ gestation, it isn’t until between 16 and 20 weeks into pregnancy that moms start feeling the baby twist, stretch, and kick (Hijazi & East 2009). Starting around 25 weeks, babies make movements to expand their lungs, practicing for life outside the womb. There can be great variations among healthy babies as to how often and how hard they \"\"kick\"\". You may notice that your baby prefers a particular position or has a favorite time of the day to be most active. Generally, moms find their babies are most active after eating a meal, drinking something cold, or after physical activity. More pronounced body movements also are easy to notice when you change from a sitting to a lying position. When you shift and need to adjust a little bit, so does your baby. The baby's movements will also change as he or she grows bigger and gets into position for birth. You will feel fewer big turns and twists, but more kicks and jabs as your pregnancy progresses and your baby has less room to move. Sometimes it’s just calm…Your baby will sleep many times in the course of a day."

Tweet 151When Will I Feel the Baby Move?by Heather Slee One of the most exciting things to look forward to in your pregnancy is “quickening,” or the first time you’ll feel your baby move. Feeling your baby move inside you is an amazing experience!Many expectant mothers wait excitedly for this moment, not only to experience a bonding moment or just the incredible sensation of feeling the fetus move, but also for peace of mind. So, when can you expect to feel your baby move? Most doctors agree that women tend to feel movement around 16 weeks. However, if this is your first pregnancy, it may take longer. For example, I didn’t feel my baby move until I was 23 weeks along. I was nervous about this, and after doing some research I found that it could take up to 25 weeks for the first pregnancy. My doctor also confirmed this. { MORE: Themes for Pregnancy Dreams }However, sometimes you can’t even tell if you feel your baby move or if it’s just your stomach grumbling or a random ping."

Yet other mothers are surprised when they find out that they are having twins. The truth is that while there are several signs and symptoms of a twin pregnancy, there is also tremendous overlap with the signs and symptoms of singleton pregnancies. It is impossible to definitively know whether you are carrying twins (or multiple babies) by simply gauging how you feel or going off of what a home pregnancy test shows. In fact, only an ultrasound can confirm a twin or multiple pregnancy. That said, it can be exciting to wonder whether certain symptoms or signs are subtle clues that you or a loved one may be carrying more than one baby.

This page describes some of the things that a fetus can do, and when they start (see here for an animation on fetal development ). All of the fetus’s senses will be stimulated naturally during the course of pregnancy, except for vision. The fetus has the ability to detect stimuli from as early as 8 weeks, in the case of touch. The environment of the fetus is not one of sensory deprivation. The older fetus learns, while in the womb, to recognize certain sounds or tastes, and this prepares them for life after birth. Note: Pregnancy is usually measured from the date of the beginning of the last period, and the egg is fertilised about 2 weeks after that. So although pregnancy is said to last for 40 weeks gestation, for the first 2 weeks of the 40 weeks of pregnancy there is nothing there.

Many women can't quite believe they're pregnant until the baby moves, even if they've heard a heartbeat or seen the baby on ultrasound. Your baby's movement is the reward for everything you've gone through so far. Ordinarily women start to feel their babies move at about 20 weeks, although this varies. You may feel it as early as 16 weeks or as late as 23 weeks. If you've had a baby before, you're likely to notice the movement earlier because it's already a familiar sensation that you've experienced in a previous pregnancy. At first the movement feels like a flutter. Then over the next couple of weeks, the faint flutter turns into stronger movements. At 20 weeks you may wonder if that funny feeling is the baby moving; by about 25 weeks you?ll have no doubt that there's a living being inside you."

The long answer is as follows: fetal movement is usually felt by first time moms between 18 and 22 weeks, and in second time moms even earlier, sometimes as early as 14 or 16 weeks. It is sporadic in early pregnancy, and women report feeling movement one day but not the next. After 26 weeks, however, fetal movement should be felt on a daily basis. Most practitioners will counsel their patients to do daily \"\"fetal kick counts\"\". This can be accomplished in one of a few ways. The most common ways are either to make sure your baby is moving every 12 hours, or to sit for one hour each day and count how many times a fetus is moving."

But ever wondered what these kicks really mean or what is it your pregnancy-body is trying to convey to you. If not, here are a few facts that you ought to know about your baby’s kicks during pregnancy.1. Kicks are not just ‘kicks’. We all know that as baby grows, it starts to move around in the womb. ‘ Kicks are referred to movements a fetus performs inside the womb. Though commonly called kicks, the movements might include movement of the diaphragm, hiccups, hand movements, a side-to-side turning, somersaults and more. However, not all these movements are perceived by the mother,’ says Dr Shantala Vadeyar, consultant obstetrician, foetal and maternal medicine, specialist, Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani hospital.

For first-time mothers especially, any changes in the frequency or quality of movement can be a source of significant stress. And while people will often tell you that this is perfectly normal the closer you get to delivery, is there a line where a mother should start worrying? The Quality of the Baby's Movements Typically speaking, the fetus will begin to flutter at around week 18 to 24 of gestation. At first, it may be hard to distinguish whether it is your baby you're feeling or gas. But, over time, those movements will become more characteristic and robust. They are something we look forward to, reassurances that the child is developing normally and will be healthy and strong upon birth. Most doctors, in fact, will tell you that fetal kicks after week 28 are one of the better predictors of the baby's well-being. But the quality of those movements can sometimes change as you move beyond week 30. No longer will your baby be able to flip around as readily as the uterus become increasingly cramped."

At first, it feels like a tiny fluttering in your abdomen. As the baby grows, the sensations can become much more pronounced. Early fetal movement, called quickening, is typically felt for the first time between the 16th and 25th weeks of a pregnancy. Women in their first pregnancy are usually less likely to feel movements in the earlier weeks, but women who have already experienced at least one pregnancy can sometimes feel movement as early as week 13. As babies grow, they need to stretch their limbs. They kick, punch, hiccup and roll around in the womb. They can respond to noises by moving and may even make movements that mirror the emotions you are feeling. Additionally, eating certain foods or sitting/lying in certain positions can cause your baby to squirm. What Does It Feel Like?"

Our Experience I’d wanted to visit the Dry Tortugas for years, so I was so excited when we were finally able to venture out to the National Park. We took a day trip to the islands, and after a choppy 2.5 hour ride, our boat docked at Garden Key. While on the island, we spent the afternoon exploring the history of the fort, taking photos of the beaches, watching the pelicans roam around the docks, and walking around the perimeter of the moat. The weather was perfect, hovering around 75ºF, and the endless turquoise water shimmered in the shining sun. Park Facts and History The national park status was given to the Dry Tortugas in 1992.

Credit: djblock99/Flickr, CC BY-NC-SASea turtles, also called marine turtles, look like regular turtles, but have flippers instead of legs. They have been on Earth for more than 100 million years, according to the World Wildlife Federation (WWF). This makes them one of the oldest animal families on the planet. Size There are seven species of sea turtle and some are much larger than others. The largest sea turtle is the leatherback. It grows up to 7 feet (2 meters) long and weighs up to 2,000 lbs. ( 900 kilograms). The largest leatherback ever found was 8.5 feet (2.6 m) long and weighed 2,020 lbs. ( 916 kg), according to National Geographic."

Two genetically different subspecies exist, the nothnern and southern white rhino and are found in two different regions in Africa. As of March 2018, there are only two rhinos of the northern white rhino left, both of which are female. They live in the Ol Pejeta Conservancy in Kenya and are protected round-the-clock by armed guards. Their near extinction is due to decades of rampant poaching for rhino horn. The majority (98.8%) of the southern white rhinos occur in just four countries: South Africa, Namibia, Zimbabwe, and Kenya. Southern white rhinos were thought to be extinct in the late 19th century, but in 1895 a small population of less than 100 individuals was discovered in Kwazulu-Natal, South Africa. After more than a century of protection and management, they are now classified as Near Threatened and 19,600 – 21,000 animals exist in protected areas and private game reserves. They are the only of the five rhino species that are not endangered."

Adult males reach about three feet in shell length and weigh about 250 pounds, but large specimens of more than 1,000 pounds have been found. Diet They are primarily carnivores, munching jellyfish, conchs, crabs, and even fish, but will eat seaweed and sargassum occasionally.

"text": "Information About Sea Turtles: Species of the World Scientists recognize seven living species of sea turtles, which are grouped into six genera. Each sea turtle has both a scientific name and a common name. The scientific name identifies the genus and species, and the common name typically describes some characteristic of the turtle’s body. Different species of sea turtles like to eat different kinds of food. Sea turtles have mouths and jaws that are specially formed to help them eat the foods they like. And each species of sea turtle eats, sleeps, mates and swims in distinctly different areas. Sometimes their habitats overlap, but for the most part they each have different preferences. Click on each turtle’s common name to learn more about that species and view a map of their world-wide distribution and nesting sites. Loggerhead ( Caretta caretta)Of all the sea turtles that nest in the United States, the loggerhead is the one seen most often. The loggerhead was listed in the United States under the Endangered Species Act as threatened in 1978, and is the only sea turtle species not listed as endangered."

They have traveled our planet for more than 200 million years, tracing a highly successful evolutionary path, living in a variety of environments from dry land to the open sea. This makes them fascinating, albeit tough, subjects to study. Scientists have uncovered precious few secrets of the turtles' life in the sea. Nevertheless, what they have already learned provides some valuable clues to understanding these intriguing animals and their important part in both land and marine ecosystems. The Turtle Family Tree In order to understand better how different life forms are related, biologists classify them into a hierarchical system, from Kingdom to species. Of the 16 Orders of reptiles that evolved during the last 310 million years, that of the Testudines, or turtles, is one of only four that remain today (the three other Orders are Crocodilia (alligators, caimans and crocodiles), Squamata (snakes and lizards) and Rhyncocephala (Tuataras). Turtles, terrapins and tortoises all belong to the Order Testudinata (also called Chelonia), which comprises two Sub-Orders, namely Cryptodira and Pleurodira. The Pleurodires (2 Families) are also known as \"\"side-necks\"\" because they curl their necks into a horizontal S-shape when retracting their heads into their shells. The Sub-Order Cryptodira, or the straight-necked turtles, bend their necks in a vertical S when they pull their heads into the shell."

In honor of National Physical Therapy Month, one of our physical therapists has some expert advice on a popular topic: icing an injury versus heating an injury. When is the right time? What is the difference between the two? Physical therapist Michael Baer fills us in on when to ice or heat an injury and some general rules of thumb below. “The best way to understand what type of injuries should be iced is to understand how your body reacts to injuries,” says Baer. “ Knowing the difference between an acute injury and a chronic condition helps determine when it’s time for ice or heat. ”What Types of Injuries Should You Apply Ice To?

Schurman 8/1/2003Whether you are a runner, basketball player, boulderer, hiker, climber, or skier, the likelihood of suffering from an ankle sprain at some point in your active career is higher than you might think. Even people who primarily walk for exercise can experience a turned ankle simply by stepping off a curb the wrong way. What can you do if you sprain, twist, roll, or otherwise hurt your ankles? Here we address what you should do immediately to help prevent swelling, in the days following to limit atrophy in the rest of your lower body, and in the weeks afterward to return safely and quickly to your favorite outdoor activities. Remember, the advice here is not meant to replace medical attention; if you have trouble bearing any weight on your foot, have it checked out or x-rayed as it may be more serious than you realize. WHAT IS IT? Most simply put, a sprain is a twisting injury to the ankle. The most common type of ankle injury is a sprained (stretched or torn) talofibular ligament on the outside of the ankle, although if it’s a bad sprain you may also damage the calcaneofibular ligament. ( Remember that ligaments get sprained, but muscles get strained). 80% of ankle injuries occur when you roll the foot inward, called an inversion injury, (i.e. the sole of the foot is pointing inward, causing the ligaments on the outside – lateral -- part of the ankle to be stressed)."

"text": "A Sprain/Strain injury can affect your nervous system Whenever a sprain/strain injury occurs it is not just the ligament, tendon, or muscle fibers that are damaged. Often, the embedded neurological structures within these soft-tissue structures are also damaged. These neurological structures (golgi tendon organs, muscle spindles, and joint receptors) are essential for postural control. Any damage to these structures can have the effect of decreasing spinal stability, which can lead to chronic problems. Both Golgi Tendon Organs and Muscle Spindle Cells are sensory neurons ( proprioceptors ). Sensory neurons monitor muscle and tendon motion (contraction and stretching) and relay this information back to your brain. This creates a feedback loop system that allows your body to discern its position and postural orientation. Joint receptors are located in joint capsules and respond to deep pressure and to other stimuli such as stress or change in position. They are also part of your body’s neurological feedback loop system. When manual therapy procedures ( Active Release, Graston, Manipulation, Massage Therapy) are implemented to break up adhesions or scar tissue, all these structures in your nervous system also benefit from these procedures."

In addition to everyday wear and tear, living is meant to stretch the body’s boundaries and test its limits. Young or old, injury inevitably occurs, often in the form of strains or sprains. The difference between a strain and a sprain is one of intensity and location. Strains cause the muscle fibres to overstretch and tear. A strained muscle tends to cramp and feel stiff after exercise, but there is usually no obvious injury that causes the pain.

The mechanism of injury is when the foot is in an inverted position combined with plantar flexion which usually does damage to the lateral complex of the ankle. 1,2Anatomy The ankle joint is the most congruent in the body and it is due to the bony articulations, ligaments, capsule, and tendons. The lateral complex of the ankle is made up of three separate ligaments. The anterior talo-fibular ligament (ATFL) is the weakest out of the three ligaments and the most common to be injured. Its role is to limit plantar flexion and inversion of the ankle which is why it is so susceptible to injury because of the common mechanism of injury. The other two ligaments are the calcaneo-fibular ligament (CFL) and the posterior talo-fibular ligament (PTFL). The posterior talo-fibular ligament is the strongest of the three ligaments and is rarely injured. 3-5Classifications Lateral ankle sprain can be categorized into three different grades: Grade I (mild): There is a mild stretch to the ATFL, which is usually the only ligament involved in a grade I. Some ligament fibers may be torn but there is no to little limp, mild swelling, and minimal functional loss. Grade II (moderate): There is a complete tear of the ATFL and a partial tear to the CFL."

Muscles attach to bones with tendons. A sprain is when a ligament partially or completely tears in or around a joint. Sprains are described as first, second, or third degree. Commonly affected areas for sprains are ankles, knees, and wrists and cause by a twist, fall or overstretching of the involved tissue. The signs of sprain include bruising, inflammation, swelling, pain, tenderness, instability, and immobility."

"text": "Ankle Sprain Causes Symptoms Diagnosis Treatment Outlook Prevention What is an ankle sprain? An ankle sprain is an injury to the tough bands of tissue (ligaments) that surround and connect the bones of the leg to the foot. The injury typically happens when you accidentally twist or turn your ankle in an awkward way. This can stretch or tear the ligaments that hold your ankle bones and joints together. All ligaments have a specific range of motion and boundaries that allow them to keep the joints stabilized. When ligaments surrounding the ankle are pushed past these boundaries, it causes a sprain. Sprained ankles most commonly involve injuries to the ligaments on the outside of the ankle. You should call your doctor right away if you sprain your ankle. Your doctor can determine the severity of the injury and recommend a proper course of treatment. It can take several weeks or months for a sprained ankle to heal completely."

Many can thus not differentiate between the two leading to interchanging them when referring to the tear or overstretching of soft tissues. However, they are different even though the symptoms of the two conditions tend to be very similar. Nonetheless, to get relief for any of them, seeking medical help is an excellent option. Even though it is a small emergency, one can contact Frontline ER for queries or even visit one of their facilities. What is a sprain? A sprain entails the tear or overstretching of ligaments.

By Elizabeth Quinn Updated July 10, 2016Share Pin Email Print What's the Difference Between Sprains and Strains?. George Doyle/Stockbyte/Getty Images Sprains and strains, while sometimes used interchangeably, are not the same thing. A sprain is an injury to a ligament, the tough, fibrous tissue that connects bones to other bone. Ligament injuries involve a stretching or a tearing of this tissue. A strain, on the other hand, is an injury to either a muscle or a tendon, the tissue that connects muscles to bones. Depending on the severity of the injury, a strain may be a simple overstretch of the muscle or tendon, or it can result in a partial or complete tear. Sprains A sprain typically occurs when people fall and land on an outstretched arm, slide into base, land on the side of their foot, or twist a knee with the foot planted firmly on the ground. This results in an overstretch or tear of the ligament (s) supporting that joint."

Ankle sprains are common injuries that occur among people of all ages. They range from mild to severe, depending upon how much damage there is to the ligaments. Most sprains are minor injuries that heal with home treatments like rest and applying ice. However, if your ankle is very swollen and painful to walk on — or if you are having trouble putting weight on your ankle at all, be sure to see your doctor. Without proper treatment and rehabilitation, a more severe sprain can weaken your ankle—making it more likely that you will injure it again. Repeated ankle sprains can lead to long-term problems, including chronic ankle pain, arthritis, and ongoing instability. An ankle sprain is an injury to one or more of the ligaments that stabilize the ankle. Reproduced from J Bernstein, ed: Musculoskeletal Medicine.

Those sailors should have known better. After all, they must have been aware that when a ship sails away it gradually \"\"sinks\"\" below the horizon, and when it returns it gradually \"\"rises\"\" out of the ocean. A strong clue that the earth’s surface is curved. Since we know about the curvature, we can use it to answer some simple questions, like \"\"how far can you see?\"\" and \"\"how far away is that boat?\"\". If you’re not a sailor, some of the answers might be surprising. For example, the phrase \"\"beyond the horizon\"\" is often used in the context of expressing a vast distance. For a person standing at sea level, however, the horizon is only about 3 miles away."

"text": "\"Beyond the Sea: How Oil Spills in the Ocean Affect Birds On Land With their brown and yellow markings, seaside sparrows ( Ammodramus maritimus) blend in well with marshgrass. Credit: Philip Stouffer, Louisiana State University In marshlands along the coast of the Gulf of Mexico, it's easy to hear the sharp, buzzing calls of seaside sparrows ( Ammodramus maritimus )—even if they can be hard to spot. These five-inch, brown birds with vibrant yellow eyestripes make themselves visible when they perch, but quickly vanish from view as they flit amongst the tall grass. Regardless, Sabrina Taylor, Phil Stouffer, Stefan Woltmann, and Christy Bergeon Burns, biologists at Louisiana State University, spend their time searching for these small birds to ask an unusual question: How do marine oil spills affect animals that live on land? It seems counterintuitive at first. Seaside sparrows don't dive or swim on the ocean's surface, like pelicans and other seabirds. Their dependence on grass for food and shelter means they don't venture far from the marsh, and certainly not out to sea. So it's unlikely that their feathers were oiled by the 3.19 million barrels of oil that flowed from a deep-sea well during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in 2010. Instead, the potential effects on the sparrows and other land animals may appear months or years after the spill, as they eat food and live in grass contaminated by oil. And unlike pelicans, which now dive through oil-free surface waters, the effects on sparrows might continue for decades to come."

"text": "\"Answers.com ® Wiki Answers ® Categories Literature & Language Languages and Cultures English Language Definitions Comparisons The Difference Between What is the distance to the horizon? Flag What is the distance to the horizon? Answer by Brian Gaulke Confidence votes 1.1KThe distance to the horizon depends on the altitude of the observer. Assuming that the earth is a sphere and that the horizon is at sea level, the geometry of the situation involves a right triangle with the hypotenuse equal to the radius of the earth plus your altitude (R + A) and the opposite side equal to the radius of the earth (R). Then it's only necessary to apply the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the third side: D = sqrt ( (R + A)2 - R2 ) = sqrt ( 2RA + A2 ) where the radius of the earth is 6367.5 km or 6.3675 x 106 m. If you're standing on the beach looking out to sea, then A is at most a few meters, say 3 m as an example. In that case, the horizon is about 6181 m or 6.181 km away. If you're on a high bluff or on the roof of a tall building looking out to sea, and your altitude is 150 m, then the horizon would be 43,706 m or 43.706 km away. The arithmetic is slightly more complicated if the horizon is anything other than the ocean. Another Way To Look At It: A simple approximation formula: The distance in miles, is the square root of one and a half times the height in feet. So, for a six foot tall person, standing on a beach: 1.5 times their height is 9."

It is the Italian name for the Arthurian sorceress Morgan le Fay, from a belief that these mirages, often seen in the Strait of Messina, were fairy castles in the air or false land created by her witchcraft to lure sailors to their deaths. Although the term Fata Morgana sometimes is applied to other, more common kinds, the true Fata Morgana is different from both an ordinary superior mirage and an inferior mirage. Fata Morgana mirages significantly distort the object or objects on which they are based, often such that the object is completely unrecognizable. A Fata Morgana may be seen on land or at sea, in polar regions, or in deserts. It may involve almost any kind of distant object, including boats, islands, and the coastline. Often, a Fata Morgana changes rapidly. The mirage comprises several inverted (upside down) and erect (right side up) images that are stacked on top of one another. Fata Morgana mirages also show alternating compressed and stretched zones. [ 1]The optical phenomenon occurs because rays of light are bent when they pass through air layers of different temperatures in a steep thermal inversion where an atmospheric duct has formed. ["

The curvature of the earth will at some point make an object being viewed invisible, as it \"\"goes over the edge.\"\" This holds true also for from how far out at sea a mariner can view something on shore. A person lying down at the edge of the ocean with their eyes at approximately water level can see about 1.2 miles before the curve of the earth hides the object being viewed from sight. The higher above water level the object, or the eye of the viewer, are, the greater will be the distance at which the object, such as the light in a lighthouse, can be seen. This is why lighthouses are generally tall towers, or if shorter, are built on cliffs or hills to raise them far above water level. The light in a 100 foot tall lighthouse will be seen much farther away than the light in a 50 foot lighthouse.

The horizon narrowed and widened, and dipped and rose, and at all times its edge was jagged with waves that seemed thrust up in points like rocks. Many a man ought to have a bath-tub larger than the boat which here rode upon the sea.

I tend to notice little things like mountain ranges having ninety degree corners or rivers that flow uphill or maps that don’t have a scale bar. So I want to talk about some things, which on-a-geological-scale are very small details that make me tilt my head like a dog hearing a high-pitched noise. Not because I hate, but because there is no more honorable nerd past-time than dismantling something we love into its finest details, ruminating endlessly on the bark of a single tree while there’s an entire forest planet surrounding us.

Most mornings I usually drink a hot latte but by afternoon you can find me drinking an iced coffee beverage including my own home version of a Starbucks Frappuccino. Besides saving Instead of giving Starbucks almost $5 for a frappuccino, I feel better knowing I have broken free from the power of the green topless mermaid. Let me tell you right now how much I love making these at home because of the flexibility of controlling the amount of sugar, type of milk (s), and flavoring (therefore calories) to cater to whatever it is I’m craving.

Hiroko Masuike/The New York Times SOMETIMES it’s hard to tell how much coffee costs, even if you know what you spent. At least that’s the case with many of the single-serve brewing machines that are soaring in popularity. For example, the Nespresso Arpeggio costs $5.70 for 10 espresso capsules, while the Folgers Black Silk blend for a K-Cup brewed-coffee machine is $10.69 for 12 pods. But that Nespresso capsule contains 5 grams of coffee, so it costs about $51 a pound. And the Folgers, with 8 grams per capsule, works out to more than $50 a pound. That’s even more expensive than all but the priciest coffees sold by artisanal roasters, the stuff of coffee snobs. An exclusive single-origin espresso like the Ethiopia, Gedeo Single Origin Espresso from Sightglass Coffee costs $19 for a 12-ounce bag, or about $25 a pound.

( Starbucks)With much fanfare, Starbucks introduced a light-roast espresso blend to its shops across the country on Tuesday, marking the first time in more than 40 years that the coffee behemoth has used anything other than a dark, robust blend for its espresso, whether as an individual shot or as part of lattes, cappuccinos and other drinks. Congratulations, Starbucks, you’re only about a decade or two behind the curve. Coffee roasters and shops have been experimenting with light-roast blends (or lighter -roast blends) and single-origin beans for espresso since at least the mid-to-late 1990s, almost as a knee-jerk response to the hegemony of dark Italian roasts, which had been the espresso standard for decades. Yet despite the third-wave movement’s devotion to high-grade beans, lighter roasting techniques and other innovations, Starbucks had been largely content with its second-wave conventions, which were a significant step up from the coffee of the Folgers generation. Sure, Starbucks introduced a Blonde roast coffee in 2012, but the chain had remained committed to dark-roast blends for espresso drinks. [ How to brew better coffee at home (and save money) in 5 easy steps]Last year, however, Starbucks introduced its “Blonde Espresso” — a blend of Latin America and East African beans, roasted lighter to bring out each bean’s unique qualities — to the Canadian market, to an apparently warm reception. This week, the espresso blend made its way into Starbucks shops across the United States. You can order the blend as a shot or as part of an espresso-based drink. The regular dark-roast blend remains available for espresso drinkers, too."

Starbucks' smallest cup (\"\"short\"\") is 8oz, while their largest cup (\"\"venti\"\") is about 20-24oz.

"text": "\"How Many Ounces in a Shot of Espresso? Pretty much everyone is familiar with the term ' espresso ', and most have probably even tried one at the local deli or Starbucks. However, there aren't many out there who really understand what an espresso is, and even fewer know how to prepare an espresso properly,en.wikipedia.org'Espresso' does not refer to a special type of coffee bean or roast. Instead, it is a mode of preparation, and the truth is any variety of coffee bean can be turned into an espresso (although certain kinds of coffee beans make for better espressos than others). Making a shot (or double shot) of espresso entails grinding coffee beans into a very fine powder like consistency. This powder is than uniformly distributed in a porta-filter and compressed into a tightly compacted cylindrical mass through which hot water is pushed through at very high pressure (approximately 8 bars of pressure, which correspond to eight times the atmospheric pressure at sea level). Appreciation of fine espresso is comparable to the appreciation of fine wine, and espresso lovers talk about a particular brew's texture, ' crema ', flavor profile, and other attributes in great detail. In fact, espresso aficionados can spend hours going back and forth and debating the relative merits of different blends of beans and espresso machines. A love for espresso may seem pompous to the uninitiated, but the truth of the matter is once you've tried a high quality espresso, there's no going back to a run of the mill 'cup of Joe' or a gritty and sour tasting attempt at espresso made by an underpaid and disinterested barista at the strip mall coffee shop. It is possible for anybody to make a proper shot of espresso."

However, this amount varies between different coffee drinks, and can range from almost zero to over 500 mg. This is a detailed guide to the caffeine content of different types and brands of coffee. What Factors Affect Caffeine Content? The caffeine content of coffee depends on many factors, such as: Type of coffee beans: There are many varieties of coffee beans available, which may naturally contain different amounts of caffeine. Roasting: Lighter roasts have more caffeine than darker roasts, although the darker roasts have a deeper flavor. Type of coffee: The caffeine content can vary significantly between regularly brewed coffee, espresso, instant coffee and decaf coffee. Serving size: \"\"One cup of coffee\"\" can range anywhere from 30–700 ml (1–24 oz), greatly affecting the total caffeine content. Bottom Line: Caffeine content is affected by the type of coffee bean, roast style, how the coffee is prepared and the serving size."

It is unclear whether frappé is taken from frappé, a Greek iced coffee, or from the Boston area term for a thick milkshake frappé (pronounced \"\"frap\"\"), both of which come from the French word frappé. [ 1] The original Frappuccino beverage was developed, named, trademarked and sold by George Howell 's Eastern Massachusetts coffee shop chain, The Coffee Connection. When Starbucks purchased The Coffee Connection in 1994, they also gained the rights to use, make, market, and sell the Frappuccino beverage, [ 2] and soon after began to sell the beverage chain-wide. In response to the success of Frappuccinos, several Starbucks' competitors have developed similar drinks with similar sounding names, but only Starbucks can legally use the \"\"Frappuccino\"\" trademark. Similar frozen coffee drinks were served starting in 1988 by the Seattle chain Cinnabon under the names Mochalatta and Caramelatta. ["

November 30, 2017 by Leta Shy 1.3K Shares There are many benefits to drinking coffee every day — from disease-fighting antioxidants to improved memory and longevity — but when it comes to your caffeine habit, there really can be too much of a good thing. Just how much caffeine is too much? For the average person, up to 300 mg of coffee a day, or two to four cups of the average brewed coffee, is a moderate amount that isn't harmful. But once you hit more than four cups, you may experience less-than-desirable side effects. Drinking more than 500 mg every day, in fact, can induce anxiety, insomnia, and muscle tremors and can even lead to increased heart rate and blood pressure, headaches, or digestion issues.

This assumption makes a perfect sense. What else would explain the buzz we get when we down a shot of espresso in the morning? Interesting, but is this correct? Well, that depends on your perspective... During the 1950's a typical serving size of coffee was between 4 to 6 fl oz (118-177m L), but over the years our \"\"cup\"\" size has grown almost eight times since. Starbucks' smallest cup (\"\"short\"\") is 8oz, while their largest cup (\"\"venti\"\") is about 20-24oz.

Calls to such numbers are forwarded to the customer's PBX via the trunks. As calls are presented to the PBX, the dialed telephone number is signaled to the PBX with Dialed Number Identification Service (DNIS) using a prearranged, usually partial format, e.g., the last four digits. The PBX may use this information to route the call directly to a telephone extension within the organization without the need for an operator or attendant. The service provides inbound telephone service for many telephone numbers requiring only a limited number of physical telecommunication circuits to satisfy the average concurrent usage by the customer."

The company was established in 1983, but roots of the company stretch back to the days of Alexander Graham Bell. Through mergers and lawsuits, companies like Southern Bell Corporation, which later became SBC Communications, are at the root of today’s AT&T. AT&T headquarters is responsible for maintaining business with more than 200 million customers. Even with the large consumer base, AT&T is only in the top 30 of non-oil companies. AT&T Headquarters Info The AT&T headquarters is located in Dallas, Texas. Despite the fact that the company headquarters is in Dallas, the corporate phone number is out of San Antonio, Texas. Address: If you need to write to AT&T headquarters you need to address the letter to the Dallas office. This is not an address capable of processing account payments. The mailing address for accounts payable is located on your AT&T bill. Contact customer service if you do not have a bill, but want to make a payment by mail."

When I ordered the representative quoted that they offered an unlimited plan for $70 a month for data. That is what I wanted and signed up for it since I knew that I would be using a bunch of data. Well I received that device on 3/9/18. Upon receiving it I noticed that it was loaded with only 10GB. I called on 3/10/18 and was told that the reason it only had 10GB is because they had stopped offering unlimited on 3/1/18.

December 05, 2013 | David Lazarus One AT&T customer's monthly cost of measured land-line service… (Paul Sancya, ASSOCIATED…)When California's telephone market was deregulated in 2006, consumers were told that increased competition would improve service and reduce prices. It hasn't worked out like that. Carlsbad resident Steve Linke has received so-called measured service from AT&T for five years. That means he pays a flat rate each month for a limited number of local calls on his landline phone. \"\" It's for peace of mind,\"\" Linke, 45, explained to me. \"\" If there's an earthquake or some other major emergency, it's nice to know that we'd still have a landline to call out on when the cell towers go out. \"\" When Linke first signed up for measured service, the rate was $5.83 a month — a relative bargain for knowing that you won't be cut off from the world when the whip comes down.

Easiest way to contact them by phone is to dial *2 on your Sprint phone or call one of these two numbers: 866-866-7509 or also try 888-211-4727 to get in touch with Sprint phone support. NOTE that if you want to use *2 shotcode, call must originate from Sprint connected mobile phone. Second number is listed on the companies website, so it’s likely “busier” which could result in longer hold times. Getting Help Faster, and with better results: When asked by voice prompt “what you are calling about”, always just say “Representative”. You may need to repeat this several times for follow questions. Do not go into listening for options – its a waste of time. PS – this tactic works for pretty much any other company with voice prompts Once you are connected to a rep, immediately INSIST to talk to SUPERVISOR. Most reps are usually incompetent or cannot make any decisions. In complex situations will probably end up talking to the “boss” any way, so just save yourself time."

On that date, AT&T will limit its DSL customers to 150GB per month and its U-verse customers to 250GB per month in what will be the largest Internet Overcharging operation in the nation. Customers who violate the usage limits will face a three-strikes-you’re-overcharged penalty system. After three violations of the usage limit, customers will pay an additional $10 for each block of 50GB they consume. Although that represents just $0.20 per gigabyte, less than some others have imposed, it is not pro-rated. Whether a customer uses one or fifty “extra” gigabytes, they will face the same $10 fee on their bill. Customers will begin receiving notification of the change in the company’s terms of service March 18. AT&T claims only 2 percent of their DSL customers will be exposed to the Internet Overcharging scheme. “Using a notification structure similar to our new wireless data plans, we’ll proactively notify customers when they exceed 65%, 90% and 100% of the monthly usage allowance,” AT&T’s Seth Bloom told Broadband Reports. The company also says they’ll provide users with a number of different usage tools, including a usage monitor that tracks historical usage over time, and a number of different usage tools aimed at identifying and managing high bandwidth consumption services."

"text": "\"IRA Withdrawal Rules If you are an Individual Retirement Account owner/contributor and you’ll soon be 70.5 years of age, the Internal Revenue Service obligates you to start accomplishing minimum distributions from your retirement plan. Here are some of the important IRA withdrawal rules you need to remember to do it proficiently. Minimum Withdrawal Rules If you are approaching the age of 70.5, then you are most likely aware of the IRA rules and tax law that necessitates you to get mandatory payouts every year. If by this year (2010) you turn 70.5 years old, you must make your first minimum distribution no later than the 1 st of April, 2011. Getting money from your IRA, definitely, means your account will have to deal with the resulting income-tax bills. In reality, the chief reason why the Congress established the minimum withdrawal policies was to protect the government by letting you hand over the government’s share of your Individual Retirement Account sooner. If you defaulted or failed to carry out the required withdrawal of a specific amount every year, you’ll incur a 50% penalty due to the shortfall. Obviously, you can take more money than the minimum amount and disburse the extra income taxes. Remember that the IRA minimum distribution policies also apply to SIMPLE or SEP IRA, because they are both categorized as retirement plans for this purpose. However, Roth IRA contributors are exempted from this provided that the original account owner is still alive."

Posted by Ryan Guina on August 26, 2016 | Investing One of the most important things my father taught me about managing money is investing for retirement. Based on his advice, I opened an IRA at age 19 and have been investing ever since. When I first started investing, I was eligible for an IRA, but I was in the USAF and we did not have a 401 (k) plan. It wasn’t until I was in for about two years that the military had an equivalent plan, the Thrift Savings Plan (TSP). At that point, I wasn’t earning enough money to fully max out my IRA and contribute to the TSP. I had to decide which investment plan was the best for me. Since I didn’t receive a “company” match to my TSP, I chose to invest in a Roth IRA. ( Why choose Roth over Traditional IRA? ).

Sheedy, Editor From Kiplinger's Retirement Report, December 2013Tax-free money: It's a dream of every investor. And that's what the Roth IRA can deliver. The downside, of course, is that you must pay Uncle Sam income taxes on the amount you put into a Roth account, whether you contribute directly or convert a traditional IRA. Still, adding a Roth to your nest egg is worth a close look. See Also: 10 Things You Must Know About Roth Accounts The benefits are big, starting with compounded tax-free growth. You can generally withdraw the money during retirement without having to pay income tax. And Roth IRA owners never have to take required minimum distributions, as you must starting at 70 1/2 with traditional accounts. Even for older investors, \"\"Roth IRAs have a very viable place in a financial plan,\"\" says Ken Moraif, a certified financial planner at wealth-management firm Money Matters, in Plano, Tex.

"text": "\"TSP Loans There are two types of TSP loans — general purpose and residential. The former can be repaid over one to five years and the latter over one to 15 years. No documentation is required for a general purpose loan but you must submit documentation to support the amount of a residential loan request. You can have two loans outstanding at any one time, but only one of each. There is a $50 processing fee per loan, which is deducted from the loan amount. When you take a TSP loan, you are borrowing from yourself. The minimum amount is $1,000 and the maximum depends on various factors, including the amount you have contributed and IRS rules. The loan interest rate is the G Fund rate at the time you apply. Applications are made with Form TSP-20. TSP Loans Repaid Through Payroll Loans are repaid through payroll allotments over the payment period specified in the loan agreement."

Hi, I’m Tricia, a Marketing Associate at Betterment. A 401 (k) is a retirement account. It is different from some other retirement accounts because they allow capital gains, dividends and interest to grow tax-free (or tax-deferred). However, there are limits on how much you can contribute and restrictions on when and how much you can take out. It is an employer-sponsored retirement plan."

"text": "\"Whether you should choose a traditional IRA or a Roth IRA for your retirement savings essentially comes down to one question: When do you want your tax break -- now or in the future? While both types of retirement savings accounts offer favorable tax treatment -- that is, ways to shield some of your money from taxation -- the mechanics of how and when they deliver tax savings are very different. Beyond the tax question, these accounts have other features that might sway your decision one way or the other. We'll wade into the details in a moment -- and our IRA Center can help you sort out the details if you don't know where to begin -- but for those who specifically want an answer to the question \"\"Should I choose a Roth or traditional IRA?\"\" in less than 350 words, here it is. If you'd prefer to lower your taxes today and defer them until a later date, a traditional IRA is the answer The IRS allows you to deduct the amount of money you contribute to a traditional IRA from your taxable income for the tax year in which you make the contribution, so long as you meet certain criteria. That means a traditional IRA offers immediate tax savings. However, years later, when you start taking money out of the account for retirement, Uncle Sam will come calling, and those taxes you deferred will come due. As you make withdrawals, you'll pay your ordinary income-tax rate on all money you withdraw. ( To see whether you qualify to receive the full tax benefits of a traditional IRA, see What Is a Traditonal IRA? )"

Recently, a 50-year-old friend asked me where to put extra cash he wanted to save for retirement, but was worried he might have to use to pay college bills for his high-school age twins. This fellow had been feeding a 401 (k) as well as 529 state college savings accounts for his kids. But he now had extra income from moonlighting and wondered whether he should use it to fund a tax-deductible SEP-IRA (a special individual retirement account for the self-employed), or should pour his extra savings into the 529s. Simple question? Not when Congress, in its wisdom, has seen fit to create more than a dozen different tax-advantaged retirement savings accounts, each with its own rules on contributions, loans, and when you can take money out without paying a 10% “early withdrawal” penalty on the distribution. Indeed, all those retirement accounts and rules are one of the reasons that National Taxpayer Advocate Nina E. Olson recently singled out tax code complexity as the biggest problem facing taxpayers. ( For my advice to my friend—advice which is further complicated by the college financial aid formulas—see the end of this story. ) Of course money you put in a retirement account should ideally stay there until you retire."

Personal Finance 9/04/2014 @ 8:54AM 183,873 views IRAs And Trusts: What You Need To Know A recent Supreme Court decision has rekindled the debate about whether it is better to inherit IRA assets in a trust than to receive them outright. In the wake of that case, which I wrote about here, some advisers are encouraging clients to set up new trusts for the purpose. These trusts generate fees for: the lawyers who write the documents; professional trustees who run the trust after someone passes away; and investment advisers who manage the trust assets. They can also make estate planning with IRAs much more complicated. Therefore, it’s important to understand what you – and your heirs – would be getting into. First some IRA basics. Money in IRA accounts (or employer sponsored retirement plans, such as 401 (k)s and 403 (b)s) will not normally be covered by a will. Instead, an IRA inheritance is given out according to beneficiary designation forms that you fill out when you open the accounts or later amend. So if you want your IRA to be held by a trust after you pass away, you must name that trust as the beneficiary of your IRA."

"text": "\"Traditional TSP vs. Roth TSPThe decision whether to invest in a traditional TSP or a Roth TSP boils down to whether you believe you will be in a higher or lower tax bracket when you take your distributions. With the traditional TSP, contributions are made with pre-tax money (income which has not been taxed), grows tax free over the years, and then you are taxed on everything you withdraw. ( Unless you are a member of the military making tax-exempt contributions such as combat zone tax exclusion pay, in which case you are not taxed when you withdraw your original contributions. ) In a Roth TSP, your contributions are made with income on which you have already been taxed (unless you are military making a tax free contribution), then they grow tax free over the years, and finally you withdraw both contributions and gains tax free. Despite all the arguments on either side of the issue, there is no real advantage in terms of how much growth you can expect from your money over the course of your career by choosing one option over the other. The effects of compounding the higher contributions made to a traditional TSP exactly match the benefit you obtain by not paying taxes on the gains under a Roth TSP. Here’s the math showing how much money will you have available to spend in 10 years, after paying income taxes, under the traditional TSP vs. the Roth TSP: Let’s start with some simple assumptions: You put $10,000 from your salary into your Thrift Savings Plan this year. Your combined marginal federal and state income tax bracket is currently 35 percent. Your Thrift Savings Plan account earns 5 percent per year. You will retire in 10 years and withdraw both the contribution which you made this year and the returns earned."

Don’t be. Fidelity’s got you covered. Here are the answers to some frequently asked questions regarding RMDs. General information What are minimum required distributions (MRDs)? Minimum required distributions, or MRDs, are mandatory, minimum yearly withdrawals that generally must be taken starting in the year you turn 70½. While there is a minimum amount you are required to withdraw in order to avoid severe penalties, you can always take more than the MRD amount. You generally have to take MRDs from any retirement account in which you contributed tax-deferred assets or had tax-deferred earnings. These accounts include: Traditional IRAs Rollover IRAs SIMPLE IRAs SEP IRAs Most Keogh accounts Most 401 (k) and 403 (b) plans Inherited IRAs have special rules for MRDs and the required distributions are time-sensitive, usually beginning in the year after the year of death of the original owner. If you have inherited an IRA, see MRD Rules for Inherited IRAs or call an inheritance specialist at 800-544-0003. Our Retirement Distribution Center can help you calculate and manage your MRDs."

Is there any tax advantage to taking it in monthly installments as opposed to taking a lump sum once a year? — Sherwood Kahmer, Garnet Valley, Pennsylvania A: There is no tax advantage to taking your required minimum distribution (RMD) in one lump sum annually vs. installments throughout the year. But the timing of your distribution is important, says Mark Copeland, a founding partner at Signature Estate & Investment Advisors in Irvine, Calif. First, a little background on how RMDs work. At age 70½, you must start taking money out of your IRA and other tax-advantaged investment accounts such as 401 (k)s, according to IRS rules. After years of waiting, Uncle Sam wants to collect the taxes you’ve deferred on your contributions. You must take your distribution by April 1 of the year following the calendar year in which you turn 70½. But after that, you can wait until December 31 of each year to receive the money. You can choose to take the payments monthly, quarterly, or annually. You’ll pay the same amount of income tax no matter when you receive the money. But taking payments earlier in the year is a “lost opportunity,” says Copeland. “"

If the male (or any other rabbit) is in the cage with the mother, she will most likely kill or abandon her babies.

"text": "\"How to Care for a Baby Mourning Dove By Karen Mihaylo Mourning doves are prolific breeders, but their young have a high mortality rate. They're found in rural areas throughout the United States. In some states they're hunted as game birds, while in others they're protected as song birds. Mourning doves (Zenaida macroura) are sloppy nest builders, loosely joining sticks and twigs to form a nest that is easily knocked to the ground by winds and storms. Abandoned Newborns Baby doves that have fallen from their nest can be replaced. The parents will not abandon them because you've touched them. If you find newborn mourning doves whose nest has fallen to the ground, you may be able to repair and replace the nest. Observe the nest to be sure the parents return to care for the babies. Another alternative is to hand-feed the babies until they're weaned. Raising baby birds is about a four-week commitment."

A: Quick Answer The gestation period for rabbits is 29-35 days with 1-12 babies per litter; birthing can occur in as little as 10 minutes per litter. The short birthing cycle means a female rabbit can give birth to a new litter before she is finished weaning the previous litter.

Credit: Nikchick CC-BY-2.0Full Answer Rabbits prefer to have their young in a nest that is safe from predators and lined with the mother's fur. Mothers sometimes eat their young after birth for a number of reasons such as a stillborn baby. Baby rabbits are blind at birth and take approximately 10 days to open their eyes. They begin weaning at four weeks but should stay with their mother until they are six to eight weeks old."

Weaning is best done as a process rather than an event. As a general guideline, 5.5 - 6 weeks old is a fine age for beginning the weaning process. Physiological Weaning vs Physical Weaning Sponsored Links Thanks to natural instincts and capabilities within the genetic DNA of the rabbit, rabbit kits are fully able to feed themselves by 28 days of life (4 weeks). This coincides with the doe’s ability to bear another litter 31 days after the prior litter’s birth. In domestic rabbits, kits’ milk intake is at its maximum at around 3 weeks of age and it tapers off between 4 weeks and 7 weeks. We call this physiological weaning. Physiological weaning takes place long before physical weaning does, most of the time. We know that rabbits in the wild physically wean their litters at 4 weeks of age or slightly earlier. This is because they are already very pregnant with their next litter and they simply abandon the 4-week-old kits in order to go off and dig themselves a new burrow."

Fortunately, with a bit of consideration and understanding of some of thebasic principles of potty training a Lhasa Apso, it is easy and simple to teach your Lhasa Apso this very important behavior. There are some points to keep in mind when planning or starting your potty training routine. No matter which method you decide to use, there will be accidents. Plan for them, accept them and move on with as little fuss and negative actions or punishment towards the puppy as possible. Usually with any puppies, accidents are due to very small bladders and bowels and poor control as their bodies develop, very similar to young human infants in fact. Avoid Punishing Your Lhasa Apso Avoid punishing or reprimanding your puppy for an accident, as it is likely to be more a fault of the owner for not taking the puppy to the potty area soon enough. Learn from mistakes and keep notes on when the puppy has accidents."

Unless you plan on keeping your furry four-legged friend in a fenced-in backyard (not recommended), you'll have to teach them to use the bathroom outside the house and not inside. Unfortunately, however, Chihuahuas have a notorious reputation for being a breed that's difficult and downright stubborn to housebreak. In fact, some owners throw in the flag and simply lay out pee pads for them instead. The truth is that practically any Chihuahua, no matter how old they are, can be potty-trained when it's done correctly and under the right circumstances. Although Chihuahuas can be successfully potty-trained at any age, it's recommended that you start as soon you bring them into your home, preferably when they are still a puppy. During the first 6-12 months of a Chihuahua's life, their brains are developing at a rapid pace; therefore, they will naturally catch on to routines and consistency. You can use this to your advantage by instilling the basic potty-training commands in your Chihuahua's head. When they learn these principles at an early age, it will stay with them well into their adult years, making the potty-training process easier for the both of you.

Cultural factors play a large part in what age is deemed appropriate, with the expectation for being potty trained ranging from 12 months for some tribes in Africa [1] to 36 months in the modern United States. [ 2] Most children can control their bowel before their bladder, boys typically start and finish later than girls, and it usually takes boys longer to learn to stay dry throughout the night, however it depends on the maturity and consistency of the particular child. [ 3]Contents [ hide ]1 Modern practice2 History in the United States3 Gallery4 See also5 References Modern practice [ edit]Most people advise that toilet training is a mutual task, requiring cooperation, agreement and understanding between the child and the caregiver, and the best potty training techniques emphasize consistency and positive reinforcement over punishment – making it enjoyable for the child. The vast majority of studies concentrate on children 18 months old and older. In this age range, research suggests that children over 24 months train faster and girls train slightly faster than boys. [ 4] [5] [6]History in the United States [ edit]Until the mid-1900s, the vast majority of babies finished toilet training by 2 years, and achieved nighttime dryness by 3 years. [ 7] Since then, the age for toilet training has increased dramatically. The convenience of disposable diapers, pull-up diapers (such as Huggies Pull-Ups introduced in 1989) and more efficient laundry facilities may contribute to this trend. In 1957, the average age of starting toilet training was still under the age of one year, 11 months, and 90% of children were dry during the day by 2 years. ["

Listen Many parents are unsure about when to start toilet teaching or \"\"potty training.\"\" Not all kids are ready at the same age, so it's important to watch your child for signs of readiness, such as stopping an activity for a few seconds or clutching his or her diaper. Most children begin to show these signs between 18 and 24 months, although some may be ready earlier or later than that. And boys often start later and take longer to learn to use the potty than girls. Instead of using age as a readiness indicator, look for other signs that your child may be ready to start heading for the potty, such as the ability to:follow simple instructionsunderstand words about the toileting processcontrol the muscles responsible for eliminationverbally express a need to gokeep a diaper dry for 2 hours or moreget to the potty, sit on it, and then get off the pottypull down diapers, disposable training pants, or underpantsshow an interest in using the potty or wearing underpants About Timing There are some stressful or difficult times when you may want to put off starting the toilet-teaching process — when traveling, around the birth of a sibling, changing from the crib to the bed, moving to a new house, or when your child is sick (especially if diarrhea is a factor). It may be better to postpone it until your child's environment is stable and secure. Also, while some experts recommend starting the process during summer because kids wear less clothing, but it is not a good idea to wait if your child is ready. How Long Does It Take?

But few moms and dads are prepared for how long toilet training can take. Sure, some kids master it within a few days (see how to potty train your child in three days ), but others take several months or longer. You and your c hild have a better chance of success if you understand the important elements of training before you start. Here are the basic steps: A. Assess your child's readiness – and your own When children are about a year old, they can begin to recognize that they have a full rectum or bladder. Some are ready to start potty training as early as 18 months, while others aren't interested until after age 3. Many parents begin potty training when their children are about 2 1/2. Because there's such a wide age range for when kids develop an interest in potty training, watch for signs that your child is ready to start: Can she follow simple instructions? Can she walk and sit down?"

"text": "\"Toilet training Follow City-Data.com founder on our Forum or @Lech Mazur Definition Toilet training is the process of teaching a young child to control the bowel and bladder and use the bathroom for elimination. A child is considered to be toilet trained when he or she initiates going to the bathroom and can adjust clothing necessary to urinate or have a bowel movement. Toilet training is sometimes called toilet learning or potty training. Description The average age at which children complete toilet training in the United States is approximately three years old. In some cases children learn bladder control first; others learn bowel control before bladder control. Control is generally first achieved during the daytime, well before a child is able to stay dry at night. Some children achieve some control over bladder and/or bowel movements as early as nine months of age and are able to cooperate in controlling themselves to some degree by the age of 12 to 15 months. Most experts agree, however, that toilet training should only be initiated when a child exhibits certain signs of readiness that usually appear between the ages of two and three years of age. Unlike infants, toddlers know when they are urinating or defecating and may assume certain postures or become quiet when they are about to move their bowels. They have also learned the vocabulary their family uses for elimination."

Physiological Development (Bladder and Bowel Control): In order for your child to be able to eliminate when s/he wants to (voluntary vs. involuntary), her/his sphincter muscles have to be developed / mature enough to delay excretion for a brief period of time. All my research including the American Academy of pediatrics say that children's elimination muscles reach full maturity somewhere between 12-24 months, and the average age of maturity is 18 months. So how is a parent to know if a child's elimination muscles are mature? Your child's behavior and actions will guide you in knowing how your child is developing in this area. Around his/her first birthday, your child will begin to recognize the sensation of a full rectum or bladder, signaling the need to eliminate."

With urine marking the dog deposits a smaller amount of urine. Marking in the house is usually done to an upright surface such as a doorway, table leg or piece of furniture. The dog will lift his hind leg and mark urine on practically any object in your house. Quite often the object is something new or different with unfamiliar smells that has come into the house but not necessarily so. He is also likely to mark items that he feels belong to him such as anything that he has become possessive about including you. He thinks you are his possession and any objects related to you are also his possessions. Keep reading if urine marking is the problemor see below for House Training - Potty Training Puppy House Training - Potty Training Adult Dog Why do dogs lift their leg and mark territory with urine? Dog urine marking is not a bathroom training issue but rather an issue concerning a whole range of instinctive behaviors. Your dog may be fully housetrained and would not dream of peeing in the house but to a dog lifting his leg to scent mark is not the same as wanting to have a pee."

"text": "\"How to potty train Using a potty is a new skill for your child to learn. It's best to take it slowly and go at your child's pace. Being patient with them will help them get it right, even if you sometimes feel frustrated. Children are able to control their bladder and bowels when they're physically ready and when they want to be dry and clean. Every child is different, so it's best not to compare your child with others. Bear in mind that most children can control their bowels before their bladder. By age one, most babies have stopped doing poos at night. By age two, some children will be dry during the day, but this is still quite early. By age three, 9 out of 10 children are dry most days – even then, all children have the odd accident, especially when they're excited, upset or absorbed in something else. By age four, most children are reliably dry during the day."

"text": "What Causes Delayed Potty Training?by RENEE MILLER June 13, 2017According to Mc Kenzie Pediatrics, in Springfield, Oregon, toilet training can be defined as delayed if your child is more than 3 years of age and is not toilet trained after three or more months of training despite being otherwise healthy. Delays in toilet training have several causes, which may be behavioral or physical. Remaining calm and determining the cause of the delay can help you get your child on track. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Resistance According to Mc Kenzie Pediatrics, a child that is more than 3 years old and knows how to use the toilet, but refuses, is considered resistant. Resistance or refusal is a common type of power struggle that delays toilet training, and it usually results from aggressive toilet-training methods like forcing your child to sit on the toilet until he goes potty or punishing him for accidents. You can overcome refusal delays by giving responsibility and control back to your child. Allow him to determine when he has to go, and try not to make a big deal out of it if he doesn’t. Give your child incentives or rewards for each full day he goes without soiling his pants, or offer a special treat each time he uses the toilet. Physical or Health Issues Your child may wet her pants or experience frequent dampness for a variety of physical or health-related reasons. For example, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) lists a small bladder capacity as a cause of delayed toilet training."

There’s no magic age or amount of time, but generally people set their expectations too high for their puppies. It depends on the individual puppy and the consistency of the puppy’s owner. With my weimaraner puppy, it took about 6 weeks from when we got him for the potty training to “click. ”We got him at 8 weeks old and once he was 14 weeks I realized he hadn’t had an accident in a long time. ( And he definitely was not 100 percent yet. More like 80. ) Six weeks may seem fast but during that time I kept thinking, when will he “get it”? It got really old taking him out 12 or 13 times a day, but it paid off."

By Vincent Iannelli, MD, a board-certified physician Updated July 25, 2017Share Pin Email Print Steve Wisbauer/Digital Vision/Getty Images Most children begin potty training between 18 months and three years of age. When Kids Start Potty Training Although many parents feel like three years is a magic age by which a child must be potty trained, that is not always the case. For example, a poll on keepkidshealthy.com showed that almost 25% of kids weren't potty trained until they were three-and-a-half or four years old. In addition, research has revealed that girls tend to show an interest in potty training and show signs of readiness about two to three months earlier, on average, than boys. How to Know If Your Child is Ready for Potty Training Even in an older child, it is important to look for signs of readiness before you begin potty training, including: Staying dry for at least two hours at a time Having regular bowel movements Being able to follow simple instructions Being uncomfortable with dirty diapers and wanting them to be changed Asking to use the potty chair Asking to wear regular underwear Showing that he or she is ready to urinate or have a bowel movement by his or her facial expressions, posture, or speech Is your child showing signs that he is ready to start potty training? How to Encourage Your Child to Start Potty Training There are a few ways that you can help your son warm up to the idea. Get him a potty chair and have him decorate it with stickers and sit on it in his clothes while watching TV to help him get used to it. If your child has begun to tell you about having a dirty diaper, you should praise him for telling you and encourage him to tell you in advance next time. Whenever your child shows signs of needing to urinate or have a bowel movement, ask him if he wants to use the potty or take him to the potty chair and explain to him what you want him to do."

For both, it’s important to understand the education laws that require some level of formal schooling. Here is a brief summary of compulsory education laws in Florida. Compulsory Education Every state requires children of a certain age to obtain a formal education, whether it's public school, private school, home school, or something else. Florida compulsory education laws require kids between the ages of six and 16 (younger with a high school diploma) to attend school. Exceptions include those children with a certificate of exception granted by the district school superintendent. A Florida superintendent may also pursue criminal prosecution on parents for non-enrollment of a child. Florida’s Compulsory Education Statutes Learn more about Florida compulsory education laws in the table below. Code Section1003.21, et seq. Age at Which School Attendance is Required Between 6 and 16Exceptions to Attendance Requirements Certificate of exception granted by the district school superintendent (must be renewed each year)Home School Provisions Notify superintendent of schools, maintain a portfolio of records and materials, and evaluate education annually, including a national student achievement test or other method of evaluation Penalties on Parents for Noncompliance Non-enrollment: superintendent shall begin criminal prosecution; refusing to have child attend regularly is second degree misdemeanor Although mandatory schooling is still the norm, there are a few exceptions to compulsory education laws, including some for religious beliefs."

None of this has happened. Real evidence of how vouchers work now exists. Private school tuition vouchers began in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, beginning in 1990 and were followed by two other voucher plans in Cleveland, Ohio, and in the state of Florida. Private scholarship programs also have a clear track record. Have vouchers had the impact predicted by some economists, education theorists, and others?

"text": "\"Why My Five-Year-Old Isn’t Starting Kindergarten This Year By Jessica Morgan on Aug 7, 2013 in Big Kids, Child Behavior, Parenting Wisdom, Preschoolers, School Years Many parents struggle with what my husband and I have been contemplating for months – do we start our daughter in kindergarten this upcoming year or do we wait and do preschool over again? I quickly learned that much like breastfeeding and birth plans–everyone had an opinion, and what is right for one family isn’t always the best for another. Instead of focusing on the reasons why we decided not to start kindergarten this year, I want to tell you the reasons why we decided to allow our daughter another year of preschool. My daughter attended a VPK (Voluntary Pre-Kindergarten) program twice a week at our church. She loved everything about it; her teachers, her new friends and really the entire experience. This was the first organized anything she had attended, and she never went to daycare or any nursery school. Lily didn’t seem to grasp the curriculum as fast as the teachers had hoped, and I always thought it was because she was a “young four” (meaning with the way her birthday fell in the year, she was one of the youngest four-year-olds in her class). As the year progressed, her learning improved but still not to the level we thought she was capable. So during Spring Break, we seriously started considering repeating preschool and delaying kindergarten. After discussions with her teachers, a meeting with the elementary school principal, talks with her potential kindergarten teacher and feedback from friends and fellow parents, we have decided to do just that."

This article discusses the history of compulsory education, compulsory education requirements in the U. S. and how U. S. education requirements compare to the rest of the world. Compulsory education is education that is required by law. Compulsory education laws exist not only in the United States, but in many other countries. Countries, and states for that matter, differ in the length of time that they require each young citizen to receive state-approved education. Read on to learn more about compulsory education. History of Compulsory Education In the United States, compulsory education was first established in Massachusetts in 1852. The law specified not only a requirement for education, but a requirement that children attend public school. The requirement to attend public school is not a universal element of compulsory education. For example, although it was in 1918 that compulsory education became law in every state, many states now allow private or home school education to substitute for public education, though the presumption in the United States is that the responsibility for schooling lies with the state."

S., allows U.

The determination of dependent or independent status is important because it is the basis for whether the student has to submit his/her own documentation of residency (as an independent) or his/her parent’s or legal guardian’s documentation of residency (as a dependent). Definitions Dependent child: any person, whether or not living with his/her parent, who is eligible to be claimed by his/her parent as a dependent under the federal income tax code Initial enrollment: the first day of class at an institution of higher education Institution of higher education: any charter technical career center, career center operated by a school district, Florida College System institution, or state university Legal resident or resident: a person who has maintained his/her residence in Florida for the preceding year (12 months), has purchased a home which is occupied by him/her as his/her residence, or has established a domicile in Florida pursuant to s. 222.17, F. S.

Every applicant for admission to an institution of higher education is required to make a statement as to his/her length of residence in the state and, further, shall establish that his/her presence or, if the applicant is a dependent child, the presence of his/her parent or parents in the state currently is, and during the requisite 12-month qualifying period was, for the purpose of maintaining a bona fide domicile, rather than for the purpose of maintaining a mere temporary residence or abode incidental to enrollment in an institution of higher education. This statement is captured with the completion of the residency affidavit portion of the application to the college. An applicant (student) must submit clear and convincing documentation that he/she (or a parent, adoptive parent or legal guardian, if a dependent) has been a Florida resident for at least 12 consecutive months prior to the first day of classes for which the student is enrolling. The residency determination must be documented by the submission of written or electronic verification that includes two or more of the documents listed below. As some evidence is more persuasive than others, more than two may be requested. No single piece of documentation will be considered conclusive. First Tier (at least one of the two documents submitted must be from this list)A Florida driver license A State of Florida identification card A Florida voter registration card A Florida vehicle registration Proof of a permanent home in Florida which is occupied as a primary residence by the individual or by the individual’s parent if the individual is a dependent child Proof of homestead exemption in Florida Transcripts from a Florida high school for multiple years (two or more years) if the Florida high school diploma or GED was earned within the last 12 months Proof of permanent full-time employment in Florida for at least 30 hours per week for a 12-month period Second Tier ( may be used in conjunction with documentation from First Tier)A declaration of domicile in Florida A Florida professional or occupational license A Florida incorporation Document evidencing family ties in Florida Proof of membership in a Florida-based charitable or professional organization Any other documentation that supports the student’s request for resident status, including, but not limited to, utility bills and proof of 12 consecutive months of payments; a lease agreement and proof of 12 consecutive months of payments; or an official state, federal, or court document evidencing legal ties to Florida."

"text": "Can Children Divorce Their Parents? By Amy Newman Attorney Source In the 1984 movie, Irreconcilable Differences, actress Drew Barrymore played a nine-year-old girl who divorced her parents. While it may seem like a case of Hollywood fiction, children can, and do, file to divorce their parents. What does it take for a child to become emancipated, and what are the consequences to both parent and child? What Is Emancipation? Emancipation is the legal term for when a child becomes free of his parents, and happens either when the child reaches the age of legal majority (which varies amongst states), or when he is granted an order of emancipation from the court. Most courts will not consider emancipation unless the minor is at least 16 years of age, although some states, like California, allow it as young as 14 years of age. Age of Emancipation The legal age of majority is typically 18, or when the child graduates from high school, whichever occurs later. In the case of a child divorcing his parents, the child is seeking to speed up the process of emancipation by severing all ties to his parents prior to reaching the age of majority. Termination of Parental Obligations When a child becomes emancipated, his parents are no longer obligated to provide him with food, shelter, clothing or care; this includes terminating the obligation to pay child support."

This state activity stems from the June 2006 recommendation by the national Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) that routine vaccination is recommended for girls between ages 11 and 12, and it is now recommended for males as well (see below). According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), HPV infects approximately 20 million people in the United States with 6.2 million new cases each year. There is no cure for HPV, only treatment for related health problems. There are more than 30 strains of HPV that affect at least half of sexually active people in their lifetime. Most strains of HPV do not produce any symptoms and disappear on their own. Cervical cancer is the second leading cancer killer of women worldwide. In the United States, nearly 10,000 women are diagnosed with cervical cancer each year and 3,700 women die. This number is much smaller than in other countries largely because of the Papanicolaou (Pap) test, a screening tool for cervical cancer. The American Cancer Society reports that, with early detection, cervical cancer is usually treatable."

"text": "\"New research finds that keeping students in K–8 schools has benefits. Illustrations by Scoty Reifsnyder Transitioning from elementary school to middle school can be tough. Assistant Professor Martin West remembers the \"\"shock\"\" of the new environment he encountered at the larger, all-boys school when he entered the seventh grade. Still, his transition was pretty mild, he says. He was lucky to have been the beneficiary of \"\"outstanding\"\" educators in his private K–6 school located within the beltway of Washington, D. C., and the fact that his new school spanned grades three through 12 meant he would avoid making another transition once he reached high school. It was even during this time that West decided he wanted to be a teacher one day. Not all students are so fortunate, as West discovered last spring when he released a study that explored the achievement and dropout rates of students enrolled in grades three through 10 in Florida's public schools. The findings? In sum, students who left elementary schools for middle schools in grades six or seven \"\"lose ground in both reading and math compared to their peers who attend K–8 schools,\"\" he wrote in \"\"The Middle School Plunge,\"\" published in the spring 2012 issue of Education Next. Additionally, Florida students who entered middle school in sixth grade were 1.4 percentage points more likely than their K–8 peers to drop out of high school by 10th grade — a whopping increase of 18 percent. \"\""

Pregnant women may also receive TCA, either in the third trimester of pregnancy if unable to work, or in the 9th month of pregnancy. Parents, children and minor siblings who live together must apply together. Eligibility Rules A person must pass all eligibility rules to get TCA benefits. Some of the eligibility rules are: Time Limits - Cash assistance is limited to a lifetime total of 48 months as an adult (except for child only cases, which have no time limit). Work Rules - Some people must participate in work activities unless they meet an exemption. Regional Workforce Boards provide work activities and services needed to get or keep a job. Income and Deductions - Gross income must be less than 185% of the Federal Poverty level and countable income can’t be higher than the payment standard for the family size.

Maybe. Graduation rates have been rising since 2002, when the No Child Left Behind Act required states to improve their high school graduation rates. In 2005, the states agreed on a uniform measure of the grad rate. That meant tracking students all four years they’re in school. But why so much improvement? To find out, NPR Ed enlisted the help of 14 reporters at member stations around the country. We identified three major ways that states and districts try to improve their graduation rates.1 Stepping in early to keep kids on track.2 Lowering the bar by offering alternate and easier routes when students falter.3 Gaming the system by moving likely dropouts off the books, transferring or misclassifying them.1.

However, the use of crib bumpers in a 6-month-old baby's crib might not necessarily the best thing for your baby. Some argue that crib bumpers shouldn't be used at 6 months old or at any other age. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Your Baby at 6 Months At 6 months old, your baby is becoming far more mobile than ever before. She's likely able to roll over in both directions from her back and her stomach, and she's learning how to sit up unsupported. Since she's moving around so much and may come in contact with the sides of her crib, you might consider crib bumpers as a possible aid for her. Definition of Crib Bumpers Crib bumpers are padded pieces surrounded by cloth that rest on the inside of your baby's crib, just above the mattress. The bumper is actually a long piece of material that ties around the slats of your baby's crib. Crib bumpers are somewhat controversial, and they have their fair share of supporters and detractors."

I'm not sure when I should take off the side of the crib and turn it into a toddler bed. My daughter is almost 1, still doesn't walk, and she's 31 inches tall. I remember reading something about taking kids out of the crib when they reach 35 inches, but I'm not sure if that means she won't be able to use the toddler bed if she's 35 inches +. My mom said we shouldn't change the crib until she's 18-24 months old. I'm also planning on getting a side-rail to put on the side of the crib/bed when we turn it into a toddler bed. Any suggestions? Another side note, she's always standing in her crib when I go in to get her, and we still have the bumper in the crib, but she hasn't tried to climb out yet. Respond to Question What can I do next?

"text": "\"Baby, Pregnancy, and Parenting Information Baby Sleep Options: Pack-N-Play vs. a Crib Pack-n-play’s, also often called travel yards, are becoming very popular with new parents as an option for their baby when it comes to bedtime. This is not only true for newborns, but also as your baby gets older. How do pack-n-plays measure up for long term use and would it be a good idea for your family? Most pack-n-plays come with a bassinet option and several come with a changing table, making the pack-n-play a good multi-functional piece of baby gear to go in mom and dad’s room before a baby is moved to his crib in his room that might have a changing table in it. It is nice because at night diapers, wipes and a place to change baby is right there and at hand at 3am. However, the use of pack-n-plays for naps and bedtime doesn’t have to end with your baby outgrowing the bassinet or learning how to sit up. Many people have chosen to skip over the whole idea of a crib, and use a pack-n-play as their child’s bed for the first year and beyond. This is an idea with many benefits included. Firm/Small Sleep Area Pack-n-play’s have a smaller sleeping area than a crib. For some babies who may be over stimulated easily, being more confined may actually be a comfort to them."

They’ll even send you home with little doorknob signs saying “Back to Sleep” to remind you. Now, you may sometimes wish your baby would get back to sleep, or you may be tempted to scratch out Sleep and change the sign to “Back to Wail and Cry.” But stick with it; back sleeping for newborns is more than a baby-care fad; research shows it’s safest. Why Should Baby Sleep on His Back? In 1974, Congress passed the Sudden Infant Death Syndrome Act in an effort to discover what was causing the devastating and seemingly inexplicable deaths of otherwise healthy infants while they slept. More than two infants for every thousand born were dying this way every year. Thanks to research by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHHD) and others, a correlation was soon seen between sleeping on the stomach and increased rates of sudden infant death syndrome (also called SIDS, or “crib death” in the past)."

The measurements should work just fine for most cribs, but just to be safe, make sure to measure your own crib to double check that the measurements will work for yours. First things first- Here are the amounts of fabric I purchased for each section of the bedding: Bumper:4.6 yards of fabric total (168″ L X 45″ W)If you want to do 1 print on the outside and a different print on the inside, you will need 2 1/3 yard of each fabric (84″). Ties for the Bumper: I did 12 ties total. You can make yours thicker or thinner, whatever you prefer. For the size that I have, you will need a total of 1 yard (you will have a little left over). Piping: I couldn’t find the piping color that I wanted, but they do sell pre-made piping in a few different colors. If you can, try to find piping that is already pre-made. It makes things a lot easier. You will need 4 1/2 yard s of piping (If you are making your own piping, you only need about 1 yard of fabric to cover the piping and4 1/2 yards of uncovered piping. )"

What about now? You want your baby to sleep soundly and safely; how do you know when it's okay to introduce a pillow? For infants under the age of 12 months, the American Academy of Pediatrics advises not to use pillows and other soft bedding (including soft mattresses and stuffed toys) in order to reduce the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). However, as many Circle of Moms members have shared, if respiratory health issues develop, parents are sometimes advised by a pediatrician to allow their baby to sleep with a pillow before 12 months. As Crystal D. shares: \"\"When my son was around 4 months he ended up getting a little head cold and couldn't breathe out of his nose. So to help him the doctor told us to put a pillow under his head so it could help him breathe better.\"\" Similarly, Aly T. relays: \"\"My youngest (15 months now) had [a pillow] around 8-9 months old as he had a bad cold and needed propping up to breathe . \"\" ADVERTISEMENTBut what if health issues aren't at stake and your child reaches age one.

Baby bedding For the first few months, you'll need a crib, carrycot or Moses basket (a light, portable bassinet). Your baby needs to sleep somewhere that's safe, warm and not too far from you. Baby nests are not suitable for your baby to sleep in when you're not there because of the danger of suffocation. If you are borrowing a crib or a cot, or using one that has been used by another of your children, you should ideally buy a new mattress. If you can't do this, use the cot mattress you have, as long as it's firm (not soft), flat, fits the cot with no gaps, is clean, and waterproof. You will need:a firm mattress that fits the cot snugly without leaving spaces round the edges, so your baby cannot trap their head and suffocatesheets to cover the mattress – you need at least four because they need to be changed often; fitted sheets make life easier but they can be quite expensive, so you could use pieces of old sheetlight blankets for warmth Pillows and duvets Don't use pillows and duvets – they are not safe for babies who are less than a year old because of the risk of suffocation.

"text": "Home / Baby / Baby Sleep / Baby Sleep Basics When can my baby sleep with a blanket? The Baby Center Editorial Team Wait until your baby is at least 12 months old. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), soft bedding in a crib – like blankets and pillows – increases of the risk of suffocation or sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). Safe alternatives to blankets are sleepers, sleep sacks, and wearable blankets. After 12 months, the statistical likelihood of dying from SIDS plummets. The risk of suffocation also goes down because most 12-month-olds are able to roll over and have the dexterity to move blankets away from their face. It's best not to use crib bumpers, sleep positioners (like wedges), special mattresses, or anything else that claims to reduce the risk of SIDS. According to the AAP, not only do these devices fail to protect your baby, some infants have suffocated while using them. Once your baby is 12 months, it's okay for your child to bring a blanket or special toy to bed for comfort, but it's still safest to keep his crib relatively empty – so don't give your child a pillow until he has transitioned from the crib to a bed.

To keep your baby safe, making a plan with tips served in the article will help you cope with this transition period easier. Toddler Climbing Out of Crib, Is It Normal? Although it is common for some babies that they want to get out of their cribs, you should not ignore this problem or consider it as just a phase that she will outgrow.

Answer by Farmfresh Confidence votes 103Chickens are very fast growing and sexually mature by the age of 6 months. Most chickens are slaughtered for consumption at between 30 days and 6 months of age. The chickens are usually between 4 and 5 pounds by this age and marketed as a \"\"Fryer\"\" or \"\"Broiler\"\". This is when the meat is the most tender. Exceptions to this are chickens marketed as \"\"Cornish Game Hens\"\" which may be as young as 25 days old, \"\"Roasting\"\" chickens which are slightly over 6 months, and \"\"spent layers\"\" which are usually slaughtered at one or two years of age. \"\" Spent Layers\"\" are hens that have been laying eggs for consumption. They are slaughtered usually at the end of their first egg laying cycle when their production slows down. Occasionally such birds are kept for a second laying cycle but they will produce fewer eggs in the second cycle."

The meat is widely described as tasting like dark chicken. The term is probably of Scandinavian origin; the Swedish word skvabb means \"\"loose, fat flesh\"\". [ 2] It formerly applied to all dove and pigeon species, such as the wood pigeon, the mourning dove, the extinct-in-the-wild socorro dove, and the now-extinct passenger pigeon, [3] [4] and their meat. More recently, squab meat comes almost entirely from domesticated pigeons. The meat of dove and pigeon gamebirds hunted primarily for sport is rarely called squab. [ 3]The practice of domesticating pigeon as livestock may have come from the Middle East; historically, squabs or pigeons have been consumed in many civilizations, including Ancient Egypt (still common in modern Egypt ), Rome and Medieval Europe. Although squab has been consumed throughout much of recorded history, it is generally regarded as exotic, not as a contemporary staple food; there are more records of its preparation for the wealthy than for the poor.

"text": "Chickens Used for Eggs Chickens Used for Meat Chickens used for egg production are among the most abused of all farm animals. In order to meet the consumer demand for eggs, 280 million hens laid 77.3 billion eggs in 2007. From hatching to slaughter, egg-laying hens are subjected to mutilation, confinement, and deprivation of the ability to live their lives as the active, social beings they are. Because male chicks will not grow up to lay eggs and, therefore, have little value to the egg industry, 260 million are killed each year upon hatching. Methods include being sucked through a series of pipes onto an electrified “kill plate,” being ground up alive and fully conscious in a “macerator,” or being gassed. Female chicks are “debeaked” at a young age, most commonly having a portion of their beaks seared off with a hot blade. Debeaking is meant to prevent the abnormal feather-pecking that can result from the stress of confinement in a battery cage. A chicken’s beak is filled with nerves, and debeaking can result in severe and possibly chronic pain.95% of egg-laying hens spend their lives in battery cages. Battery cages commonly hold 5–10 birds, and each chicken may be given an amount of floor space equivalent to less than a sheet of letter-size paper. Constantly rubbing against and standing on wire cages, hens suffer severe feather loss, and their bodies become covered with bruises and abrasions."

"text": "Is there horse meat in dog food?by Lindsay Stordahl | 114 comments Pet food companies in the United States cannot use horse meat, according to the Equine Protection Network, which is a group dedicated to making a difference for abused, neglected and slaughter-bound horses. The main reason for this is because U. S. companies make more profit by selling it to countries where people eat the meat. This does not stop horse meat from making its way back into the United States as unspecific “animal” by-products, “animal” meal or “animal” digest. “Animal” digest is the ramains of pretty much any part of any animal (blood, teeth, hair, spleen) from anywhere (roadkill, shelter animals, euthanized pets and horses, etc.). Cheaper dog foods contain by-products and animal digest (see my post on dog food ingredients ). The only way to be absolutely sure horse meat is not used in your dog’s food is to read the label. Look for dog foods with ingredients like lamb, duck and chicken. The first three ingredients should be specific proteins. Avoid dog foods with unspecific ingredients like “animal” by-products, “animal” meal and “animal” digest. The reason the horse meat issue came to my attention was because legislators in North Dakota are sponsoring a bill that could lead to the building of the only horse slaughterhouse in the United States."

Download PDF Save For Later Print Purchase Print Articles Bison Bison, commonly referred to as the American Plains Buffalo, are not only native to the Great Plains and the Midwest but also once roamed the mountain slopes and valleys of Pennsylvania. The state’s last native bison was shot in 1801. Commercial breeders and bison enthusiasts have since reintroduced bison to Pennsylvania. The northeastern United States has nearly 175 domestic herds with a total of over 3,800 bison. According to the USDA 2012 Census of Agriculture, nearly 60,000 bison are sold annually in the United States, and the USDA Meat, Poultry, and Egg Product Inspection Directory lists about 90 bison-processing facilities nationwide. Although bison still have many of their wild tendencies and are only semi-domesticated, they are an agricultural alternative that may be appropriate for some small-scale and part-time farms. Bison adapt to a wide range of environments, feed sources, and management systems. A herd should consist of at least one bull and 10 to 15 cows. In Pennsylvania, herd sizes range from small operations with fewer than 25 bison to large operations with more than 200 bison."

"text": "\"This article is about the poultry. For other uses, see Broiler (disambiguation). Broiler Distribution World-wide Use meat Traits Skin color Yellow Classification Poultry A broiler ( Gallus gallus domesticus) is any chicken that is bred and raised specifically for meat production. [ 1] Many typical broilers have white feathers and yellowish skin. Most commercial broilers reach slaughter-weight between four [2] and seven weeks of age, although slower growing breeds reach slaughter-weight at approximately 14 weeks of age. Because the meat broilers are this young at slaughter (roughly 500g), their behaviour and physiology are that of an immature bird. Due to extensive breeding selection for rapid early growth and the husbandry used to sustain this, broilers are susceptible to several welfare concerns, particularly skeletal malformation and dysfunction, skin and eye lesions, and congestive heart conditions. Management of ventilation, housing, stocking density and in-house procedures must be evaluated regularly to support good welfare of the flock. The breeding stock (broiler-breeders) grow to maturity and beyond but also have welfare issues related to the frustration of a high feeding motivation and beak trimming. Broilers are usually grown as mixed-sex flocks in large sheds under intensive conditions."

Source: USDA Nutrient Database Chicken is the most common type of poultry in the world. [ 1] Owing to the relative ease and low cost of raising them in comparison to animals such as cattle or hogs, chickens have become prevalent throughout the cuisine of cultures around the world, and their meat has been variously adapted to regional tastes. Chicken can be prepared in a vast range of ways, including baking, grilling, barbecuing, frying, and boiling, among many others, depending on its purpose. Since the latter half of the 20th century, prepared chicken has become a staple of fast food. Chicken is sometimes cited as being more healthful than red meat, with lower concentrations of cholesterol and saturated fat. [ 2]The poultry farming industry that accounts for chicken production takes on a range of forms across different parts of the world. In developed countries, chickens are typically subject to intensive farming methods, while less-developed areas raise chickens using more traditional farming techniques."

"text": "\"Slaughter Age vs. Natural Life Span April 11, 2012 at 3:11pm Though we kill over 10 billion land animals every year to please our palates, we too often try to absolve ourselves by making what we want to believe are guilt-free choices, failing to recognize the paradox of “humane slaughter” and never really knowing what the whole experience is for an animal from cradle (domestication) to grave (our bodies). Though modern animal factories look nothing like what is idealized in children’s books and advertisements, there are also many misconceptions about the practices and principles of a “humane” operation. When we think about it for just a moment, the idea of breeding animals only to kill them is absurd at best, and people are often surprised to learn that most of the animals sent to slaughter are just babies, whether they are raised conventionally or in operations that are labeled “humane,” “sustainable,” “natural,” “free-range,” “cage-free,” “heritage-bred,” “grass-fed” or “organic. ”Slaughter Age vs. Natural Life Span Pigs: Slaughtered at 6 months young; Natural life span: 6 to 10 years Chickens: Slaughtered at 6 weeks young; Natural life span: 5 to 8 years for those birds bred as \"\"egg layers\"\" such as Rhode Island Reds; 1 to 4 years for factory layer breeds such as leghorns; and 1 to 3 years for \"\"meat\"\" breeds.

The slaughtering of an animal is a bloody and unpleasant act, and death does not come easy for those who want to live – whether done on a backyard farm or in a chaotic slaughterhouse where desensitized, stressed-out workers often commit unthinkable acts of cruelty – simply because they can. And this end is the same for all animals, whether they’re used for their flesh, milk, or eggs. Dairy cows and egg-laying hens are ultimately slaughtered for meat when the profits to be gained from their flesh outweigh the cost of keeping them alive. In my opinion, the movement toward “humanely raised food animals” simply assuages our guilt more than it reduces animal suffering."

However, w hen studied in their natural environments, chickens show great intelligence and have social hierarchies as sophisticated as those formed by dogs and other mammals. Laying Hens Without a doubt, laying hens are some of the most abused animals in all of farming. While more and more states are instituting farm animal confinement bans, the large majority of chickens still live their lives in a space less than the area of a single sheet of paper. The Life of a Battery Caged Hen Laying hens are born in commercial hatcheries where they are hatched by the thousands in industrial incubators. Male chicks, unable to lay eggs and of a different strain than broiler chickens, are useless to the egg industry and are killed shortly after hatching. They are typically ground up alive, gassed, or thrown into dumpsters. Hundreds of millions of male chicks are killed by the egg industry annually. Most of the surviving hens are beak-trimmed, a process deemed necessary by the egg industry to decrease cannibalism and other aggressive tendencies, and to reduce feed costs by preventing the flicking of food.

Food and water are provided in lines along the length of the building and wood shavings cover the floor. Typically, around 25,000 birds are housed together within a building, but some can house around 50,000 birds. There can be several buildings on a farm. Most birds are reared at a stocking density (amount of space provided per bird) of 38kg per square metre, which is around 19 two kilogramme birds for each square metre of floor space. Light levels can be kept low to encourage the birds to eat more and move around less, which maximises their growth rate. Improved indoor reared A smaller proportion of meat chickens are reared in indoor systems in conditions that improve their welfare. These systems are similar to those described above, but include improvements, such as:the provision of natural daylight through windowsreduced stocking densitiesenvironmental enrichment such as straw bales for the birds to peck at.

This page was posted to the site February 10, 2010.“The bird everybody loves to hate”One option for putting on our tables chicken worth eating is simply to cull our flocks as needed. There are many advantages to this approach: If we are hatching our own stock or buying in straight-run chicks, such culling is something we have to do anyway. And eating “current account” chicken as we do successive culling throughout the flock year reduces the need for packaging (and production of plastic waste) and increasingly energy-expensive storage of dressed poultry in the freezer. Such a strategy opens up culinary experiences not available to those dependent on one-size-fits-all chicken from the supermarket. These varying taste adventures have everything to do with the age at which the culled bird is prepared for the table: really young chickens that dress out at almost the size of quail (the French call them poussin ), incredibly tender and delicate in flavor; fryer/broiler size (what I call “spring chicken,” twelve to fourteen weeks old for traditional farm breeds) for sautéeing, broiling, or grilling; birds approaching maturity, four to ten months old, for braised dishes such as coq au vin; and old stew birds for incomparable broth.

It is caused by the varicella-zoster virus, the same virus that causes chickenpox. Anyone who has recovered from chickenpox can develop shingles. There are an estimated 1 million cases of shingles each year in the United States, with 1 in 3 people developing shingles during their lifetime. It is not possible to have shingles if you have never been exposed to chickenpox or the varicella virus that causes it. Once exposed, the virus can lay dormant for years. Most adults with the dormant virus never experience an outbreak of shingles or any further problems. However, in some individuals, it may reactivate multiple times. Shingles is most common in people over the age of 50 years."

MAIN MENUHIV/AIDSNext Histoplasmosis Opportunistic Infections Herpes Zoster Virus (shingles)Tweet Share Print Shingles is an infection caused by the same virus that causes chickenpox (the varicella-zoster virus, which is a type of herpes virus). You cannot develop shingles unless you have had a previous infection of chickenpox (usually as a child). Shingles can occur in people with suppressed immune systems, which includes people with HIV and people over 60 years of age (especially those with diabetes, cancer, or other diseases that can suppress immunity). Up to 95 percent of people in the United States have antibodies against the varicella-zoster virus and many develop chickenpox at some point in their lives, usually when they are school-aged children. Even though the pox lesions heal, the virus does not die—it continues to live quietly in nerve roots near the spinal cord. While the immune system cannot kill the virus completely, it can prevent the virus from becoming active again, usually for the rest of an infected person’s life. However, if the immune system becomes suppressed, the virus can escape the nerve roots and become active. Instead of coming back as chickenpox (varicella), it comes back as shingles (zoster). When shingles occurs, it only affects one side of the body, usually in the form of a belt-like streak along a single line of nerves. The most common site is the back, upper abdomen, or face."

Cohen directs the medical virology section of the clinical infectious diseases laboratory at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, in Bethesda, Md. His research focuses on the molecular genetics of human herpes viruses, among them the varicella -zoster virus that causes chickenpox (varicella) in children and that later in life can reactivate to cause shingles (zoster). Scientists are studying this phenomenon of reactivation in hopes of developing methods to prevent it. Dr. Jeffrey Cohen Overviews Shingles Reporter's File Questions for Your Doctor Clinical Trials5 Things to Know Q: What is varicella-zoster virus, and how does it make people sick? A: The varicella-zoster virus has been around for thousands of years. It is the virus that causes chickenpox and, later in life, can cause shingles. Varicella-zoster is highly infectious, entering through the respiratory tract and spreading throughout the body. Pre-vaccine, just about everyone born and raised in the United States was infected during childhood and developed the chickenpox rash as well as the fever associated with it. The virus also infects the nervous system, entering clusters of nerve cells called ganglia that are located along the spinal cord and in the head. After a child recovers from chickenpox, the virus remains in a dormant state in these cells. Later in life, the virus can reactivate, causing shingles, which is a very different illness than chickenpox."

"text": "\"Harvard Health Letter The shingles vaccine Published: March, 2011Question: If you've had shingles, should you get the vaccine to protect yourself from getting it again? Answer: Shingles is caused by the reactivation of varicella-zoster virus — the virus that causes chickenpox — that has lingered, often for decades, in a dormant state in the nervous system. The most common symptom is a bad rash on the torso or face that can be quite painful. In about 10% to 20% of cases, the rash is followed by postherpetic neuralgia — pain emanating from an affected nerve, which can be excruciating and last for many months. Shingles can also affect the eyes, causing significant pain and, in the most serious cases, loss of vision. It's safe to say that those who have had shingles don't want to have it again — especially if they've had postherpetic neuralgia or eye problems as a result. But is a second case of shingles something we need to worry about, or does the first one give immunity against a repeat episode? And if it doesn't, does that mean that people who have had shingles should get the shingles vaccine? When the FDA approved the shingles vaccine (sold under the brand name Zostavax) in 2006, the agency posted a question-and-answer piece — which is still on its Web site — that says an episode of shingles boosts immunity to the varicella-zoster virus, so people who have had shingles are unlikely to have a second case. The same piece notes that the effectiveness of Zostavax in preventing repeat episodes of shingles \"\"has not been demonstrated in clinical studies.\"\""

Especially if you haven’t seen shingles pictures, you could easily mistake a shingles rash for another health condition that affects the skin. The shingles virus causes an outbreak of a red rash and blisters across the face and body, like many other skin conditions — psoriasis, allergies, eczema, and hives among them. A shingles rash may have mild to severe pain, and the viral rash most commonly appears along a band called a dermatome. Dermatomes follow the paths of individual nerves and generally span one side of the chest, abdomen, or a limb. Unlike chicken pox, the shingles rash usually occurs on one side of the body. The shingles virus may also affect the neck, face or eyes and cause loss of vision. According to the Mayo Clinic, shingles or herpes zoster is a common condition that occurs when the chicken pox virus (varicella zoster) reactivates after lying in the body dormant. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that one out of three people over 60 in the United States will get shingles."

Since the vaccine is not recommended under age 50, it is extremely likely that you have natural immunity to chicken pox, even if you don't remember having had it. For that reason, at this time the shingles vaccine is recommended for those in the appropriate age group regardless of chicken pox history. If you or your doctor are particularly concerned, you can get the varicella antibody titer to make sure you have varicella immunity.

Popular culture makes us believe that herpes is solely a sexually transmitted disease (STD), which couldn’t be further from the truth. The Herpes Human Virus (HHV) come in eight different variants, only a couple of which is transmitted via unprotected sex. The most common afflictions caused by the HHV virus are shingles and oral or genital herpes. This article will list the symptoms, causes and treatments for both that will help you understand the differences between the two. What is What? Shingles (Herpes Zoster)Herpes zoster, or just zoster is an affliction of the skin. It is also known as shingles or zona.

The varicella-zoster virus causes it. This is the same virus that causes chickenpox. Once you’ve had chickenpox, the virus stays in your system. It can reemerge decades later as shingles. In about 10 to 20 percent of people with shingles, the rash appears in and around the eye. This type of shingles is called ophthalmic herpes zoster, or herpes zoster ophthalmicus. Shingles in the eye can cause scarring, vision loss, and other long-term problems. You can prevent shingles of the eye and its complications by getting vaccinated if you’re over age 50. Symptoms Symptoms of shingles The first shingles symptom most people notice is a tingling or burning pain, often on one side of their body."

Shingles in young adults didn't used to be as common as it is these days and you're probably thinking why this is. Well, I can't prove it, but I believe that it's due to young people having weaker immune systems than they used to. Young adults aren't as healthy as they were 30 or 40 years ago or even 10 -20 years ago and it's getting worse not better. Statistics will tell you this if you want to see for yourself. It is common knowledge that young people abuse their bodies more than ever with anything or in any way they can. Obesity is at an all time high and health problems abound, creating an ever weakening immune system. Whether you know it or not one of the primary triggers of shingles outbreaks is a weak immune system. This is the main reason why the elderly are at such a high risk for shingles since the immune system is known to weaken with age. This isn't to say that a weak immune system causes shingles, because it doesn't, but a weak immune system can trigger shingles."

"text": "Senior Apartments By Laura Williams, M. S. Ed. Apartments are attractive housing options. Source As you get older you may find that maintaining your home is becoming more difficult. If you're interested in the possibility of downsizing, you may want to consider moving into a senior apartment complex. Not only will you be able to leave the building maintenance to someone else, but you'll also be surrounded by your peers, which can help you maintain close relationships as you age. Qualifying for Residency Seniors interested in choosing apartments specifically for seniors should be aware that different complexes have different requirements for residency. The most common requirement is an age restriction. Most senior apartments require that residents be at least 50 years old, though the minimum may be as high as 55 or 62 in areas where there is a greater demand for such apartments. Furthermore, most apartments have restrictions on the size, number and type of pets allowed. Some apartments may even restrict the age of all the residents living in a unit, meaning that grandparents may not be able to provide long-term care for their grandchildren if necessary."

"text": "Exploring Medicare Benefits in 2018As a federal health insurance program, Medicare stands out among the examples of successful social programs if for no other reason than the fact that it has survived for the past five decades with few significant modifications. To understand how Medicare affects your life as an American citizen, you need to appreciate that that the program was an unprecedented measure in its day. Today, it continues to fulfill a vital need for senior citizens and those with certain disabilities or illnesses. In the following sections, we’ll discuss the history of Medicare, its impact as a social program on the country and what it means to you as an individual. The History of Medicare Like any social program, Medicare traces its roots back far beyond the law that put it into place in the mid-1960s. In the early years of the 20th century, the United States government worked with state governments, lobbyists, union representatives and others to form programs that would later evolve into the various social programs we know today. Healthcare has been the subject of national debate for nearly a hundred years, dating back to lawmakers during the Prohibition years. It has long represented a perceived need among certain sectors of the population. Social Security programs were put into practice during President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s terms, owing primarily to the need for economic growth following the Great Depression. Despite the push for Social Security programs and the implementation of the Social Security Act in 1935, there was still a large gap in coverage for people, specifically older Americans."

Lets start with Old Age Security as it’s perhaps one of the more popular seniors benefits for Canadians. As the information is spread across numerous government websites, I’ll attempt to summarize the main points in this article. What is Old Age Security (OAS)? Old Age Security is a (Canadian) government program that pays a monthly benefit (adjusted to inflation) to seniors ages 65 and over. OAS is is paid out of the current Government tax base (unlike CPP) and is counted as taxable income. To qualify for this program has nothing to do with if you’ve worked in Canada but how long you’ve lived here . According to the OAS website, here are the qualifications:be 65 or older;be a Canadian citizen or a legal resident of Canada on the day before your application is approved;have been a Canadian citizen or a legal resident of Canada on the day before you left Canada, if you no longer live in Canada;have lived in Canada for at least 10 years since your 18 thbirthday to receive OAS in Canada; andhave lived in Canada for at least 20 years since your 18 thbirthday to receive OAS outside of Canada. For 2011, the maximum OAS benefit is $540.12/month or $6,481.44/year. To receive this, you would need to have lived in Canada for 40 years after the age of 18."

Cedors Mul · 8 years ago1 3 Comment In the US, it depends on what year you were born. Some people are senior citizens for the purpose of collecting government benefits like social security and medicare at age 65, some at 66, and some at 67. Before long, that age might be 70. The term \"\"senior citizen\"\" isn't really a legal term, as far as I know. It's just a descriptor. Some retail stores, the AARP, and other organizations set their own ages for senior citizen benefits like discounts. Some are as low as 50.rose poppy · 8 years ago7 0 Comment Here in the UK the ages are 60 for a woman and 65 for a man but the new government are about to increase these ages in stages over the coming years.

I'm in southern Nevada and was able to do a senior discount at 55, but in Idaho I needed to be older. I now have cards at two casinos which give me a senior discount on Tuesdays, so I wait until then.

Do you crave the social opportunities offered in an intergenerational classroom? Or maybe you have a more practical reason for seeking higher learning: You’re feeling the strain of ageism in the workplace and want to get up to speed on emerging areas of employment – or start your own business. Whatever your motivation, you’re in luck: If you do a little homework, you’ll find that there are numerous free or low-cost opportunities for you to take college-level classes. In fact, according to a 2008 study by the American Council on Education, at least 60 percent of accredited, degree-granting educational institutions nationwide offer tuition waivers for senior learners. Tuition Waivers and Discounts A number of colleges allow seniors to audit classes at no charge, and others offer hefty tuition discounts for classes taken for credit. More than 20 U. S. states – including New York – have mandated tuition waivers and/or discounts for older adults at public colleges and universities. Some Ivy League schools offer opportunities, too; an example is Columbia University ‘s Lifelong Learners auditing program, where seniors are “silent citizens” of the classroom unless invited to speak!Don’t worry – most schools welcome senior participation, recognizing that you have much to offer.

"text": "\"Answers.com ® Wiki Answers ® Categories Animal Life Mammals Land Mammals Domestic Dogs Dog Products What age should a dog be given senior dog food? Flag What age should a dog be given senior dog food? Answer by Laura Frog Confidence votes 4.0KIt depends on the breed of dog, as well as its health. Smaller breeds mature faster, but age more slowly after reaching maturity. A small dog (such as a toy poodle, terrier, chihuahua, etc.) isn't considered \"\"geriatric\"\" until much later than a larger breed - maybe 10 to 12 years old, and the largest breeds are senior citizens at 5 or 6 years of age. Most vets, though, consider a dog 7 or 8 years or older to be a senior citizen. Some 'senior' dog foods are basically marketing hype, with little difference between the regular food and the senior food. All young dogs should be fed puppy food as they have very different requirements to adult dogs, but whether or not an older dog is switched to senior food seems to be a matter of the owner's choice as often as the dog's health. The switch to senior food should be considered carefully and your vet should be involved with this decision."

Late in the man’s life, the public grew increasingly interested in his extraordinary lifespan. He reportedly had 23 wives and over 200 children. His interest included martial arts and herbalism.

Posted in New Age Former Hindu guru Rabi Maharaj, \"\"No part of Yoga can be separated from the philosophy behind it. \"\" If you listen to the gurus and yogis; the practices of yoga, Reiki, centering prayer, transcendental meditation and all similar methods lead to experiences of self-fulfilment or enlightenment. Unfortunately, many people today think yoga and Reiki are something that is compatible with Christian doctrine. Nothing could be further from the truth. Even though in many communities, \"\"Christian\"\" yoga and Reiki may be used, it is contrary to what the First Commandment teaches us. They instruct us to go down to the level of human realizations that are man-made and not from God. This is very dangerous. The Catechism teaches us that \"\"all practices of magic or sorcery, by which one attempts to tame occult powers, so as to place them at one’s service and have a supernatural power over others – even if this were for the sake of restoring their health – are gravely contrary to the virtue of religion.\"\" No."

The New Age (NAM) movement has many sub-divisions, but it is generally a collection of Eastern-influenced metaphysical thought systems, a conglomeration of theologies, hopes, and expectations held together with an eclectic teaching of salvation, of \"\"correct thinking,\"\" and \"\"correct knowledge.\"\" It is a theology of \"\"feel-goodism,\"\" \"\"universal tolerance,\"\" and \"\"moral relativism. \"\" In the NAM Man is central. He is viewed as divine, as co-creator, as the hope for future peace and harmony. A representative quote might be: \"\"I am affected only by my thoughts. It needs but this to let salvation come to all the world. For in this single thought is everyone released at last from fear.\"\" ( A course in Miracles, The Foundation for Inner Peace, Huntington Station, N. Y.

"text": "\"Home > Patient Resources Frequently Asked Questions Q: Who is an infertility specialist? A: An infertility specialist is a physician who has completed specialty training in reproductive endocrinology and infertility and has spent two to three years studying and specializing in infertility treatment. Patients should seek a physician who is board certified in reproductive endocrinology and infertility for their infertility care. Q: When should we leave the care of our Ob/Gyn to seek assistance from a reproductive endocrinologist? A: This is somewhat difficult to answer, as the interest and skills of Ob/Gyns for infertility vary greatly. Ob/Gyns should know the limits of their infertility interests and skills and suggest referral when they no longer have workable solutions. Your Ob/Gyn should be able to get you through the basic infertility work up (HSG, semen analysis, temperature charts). Some use medical therapy such as Clomid/Serophene well; some do not. If you are uncomfortable with your infertility treatment plan, it is time to move on. If you are comfortable, the Ob/Gyn should be able to take you through the use of Clomid/Serophene."

"text": "When Do Boys Stop Growing and What to Do to Grow Taller By Jenny Hills, Medical Writer and Researcher Health Many parents are interested to know when men stop growing if they are concerned that their son won’t catch up in terms of growth with his peers. In the years up until the age of 12, a boy’s growth happens fairly gradual. However, when boys reach puberty, usually, between the ages of 12 and 16, they experience rapid growth and other physical changes. But generally, men stop growing between the ages of 17 and 20. Advertisement When Do Men Stop Growing? Men grow extremely fast between the ages of 11-15, and during this growth spurt the increase in height can be as much as 12 inches (30cm). After the age of 16 the increase in height is more gradual and boys usually stop growing between the ages of 17-20. So the majority of guys will reach their final height and stop growing when they are around 20 years old. During this growth phase, feet, hands, legs, and muscles start to grow. A man’s shoulders will also broaden and boys start to grow hair on their hands, legs, armpits, and chest."

Which position does the scientific evidence really support? How did modern anthropologists arrive at their conclusions? Let us examine the origins of modern evolutionary thinking that is behind the theoretical statements about \"\"early man\"\" being hundreds of thousands of years old and some of the finds used to support this belief system; we will contrast them with the Biblical version of the origins of man.

A woman also releases something from her body, sometimes into the womb, which then becomes moist, and sometimes externally as well, if the womb is open wider than normal. Once intercourse has begun, she experiences pleasure throughout the whole time, until the man ejaculates. If her desire for intercourse is excited, she emits before the man, and for the remainder of the time she does not feel pleasure to the same extent; but if she is not in a state of excitement, then her pleasure terminates along with that of the man. What happens is like this: if into boiling water you pour another quantity of water which is cold, the water stops boiling. In the same way, the man's sperm arriving in the womb extinguishes both the heat and the pleasure of the woman. Both the pleasure and the heat reach their peak simultaneously with the arrival of the sperm in the womb, and then they cease. If, for example, you pour wine on a flame, first of all the flame flares up and increases for a short period when you pour the wine on, then it dies away. In the same way the woman's heat flares up in response to the man's sperm, and then dies away."

Now, I have a mustache and I think it makes me look younger (of course, that is a biased viewpoint) But ladies (or guys), do you think a mustache and/or a beard makes a man appear older than his years or does it depend on whether its just a mustache rather than a beard? There was this guy I worked with in the post office many years ago who was 45 (I was 25 at the time) and he had this really great mustache and I thought he looked 35 rather than the 45 he actually was. I transferred out of that post office, but ran into him about 4 or 5 years later - he had shaved off his mustache and I thought he looked 20 years older. Of course, maybe he'd just had a very bad 5 years life experience since I saw him last. Second part - I have seen some ladies on here expressing that they wanted a man who was \"\"clean shaven\"\".

As it is, men between 22 and 30 — nearly two-thirds of the male dating pool — focus almost exclusively on women younger than themselves. I’ll be investigating this phenomenon today, with gusto and charts. Ultimately, I’ll argue that they would be well-served to expand their search upwards, to women in their thirties and forties. Because it has been a successful way to introduce previous posts, I wanted to put real faces on this demographic before I delve into a bunch of numbers. Pictured below are some single users in their mid-thirties or early forties, taken from the first couple pages of my own local match search. Nothing I’ll talk about today pertains necessarily to any one of them, but I wanted to put forward some people to go with the statistical discussion. The Back Story: Dating Preferences & Age It’s no secret that dating changes radically as you get older. As you can see below, the number of online daters peaks at 24, drops sharply at around 30, and then gradually tapers off, as the remaining singletons either find mates or withdraw themselves from contention: The bar chart here shows how the woman to man ratio changes over time.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the number of home health and care aides will expand to more than 1.3 million by 2020, a 70% increase from 2010. Home health care employees are typically RNs, LPNs, physical therapists, home care aides, occupational therapists and social workers.

Age 75+ Senior living industry - most senior living organizations run their zip code analysis on the income-qualified population over age 75 Age 65+ Medicare says you are elderly and age-qualified to be what they call a \"\"beneficiary\"\" at age 65 Age 50+ AARP in the U. S. starts at this age Again, these are conventional ages and quite U. S. centric!

It is not unethical, if they have reached a point where they are completely dependent on a caregiver for daily tasks & the latter is unable to cope. Furthermore, if the elderly parents are at risk even in their own home, & no other option is available (such as staying with adult children), then it would justify having them reside in a nursing home. To emphasize my point, I draw from the assessment of severity outlined in the book Seven Strategies for Positive Aging by Robert D. Hill. There are 4 levels of functional decline of an aging person: Dysfunction. This is when the person can still live independently, but may find some weakness in her muscles & copes with daily tasks by employing assistive tools. Disability. This is when the person needs help from another to carry out some tasks, but not all, of her daily routine. She is still able to live independently but with an occasional helping hand. Dependency."

Working with elderly people requires a special kind of personality; in order to love your work, you must be patient, knowledgeable, and have a genuine interest in working for older people. If you want to work with an elderly client base, you can start a business that caters to their unique needs and situations. As you research business ideas, choose options that fit with your educational background, interests, and time constraints. Senior Daycare Families who care for elderly relatives often face the dilemma of what to do with their family members while they are at work or running errands. A senior daycare business can provide a safe place for low-mobility people or elderly people who are unable to care for themselves. As a daycare provider, you can offer meals and entertainment for clients. Facility needs will vary based on the number of clients you want and the size of your staff; consider having a designated doctor or nurse who can answer emergency questions that might arise as you care for people with health issues. Home Services As a home aide to seniors, you can provide a variety of services in the homes of your clients to make their daily lives easier and safer. A home-care business is particularly effective if your community has a large concentration of elderly people who do not have family close by."

Caregivers often have to deal with unusual, unruly and embarrassing behavior from their care recipients. The Aging Care.com Caregiver Forum is filled with stories of demanding elderly parents, personality changes, hallucinations, and temper tantrums. In some cases, this is the way some seniors have always acted, but these behaviors can also indicate serious developments in a person’s health, like progressing dementia, depression or a urinary tract infection. We’ve compiled the top 10 “bad” behaviors that elders exhibit, some of the most common mental and physical causes, and tips for coping with them.1. Rage, Anger and Yelling Age and illness can intensify longstanding personality traits in some unpleasant ways. For example, an irritable person may frequently become enraged, or an impatient person may become demanding and impossible to please. Unfortunately, the primary caregiver is often an angry elder’s main target. What to Do Try to identify the root cause of their anger."

This condition is associated with significant functional impairment and, perhaps, increased mortality. In March 2004, the American Society of Hematology (in conjunction with the National Institute of Aging) convened a “blue ribbon” panel of twenty physicians who are experts on various aspects of this topic. This paper highlights important consensus concepts resulting from that meeting. In particular, four areas of thought are shared. First, the epidemiology of anemia in the elderly is reviewed, including its definition, its expression in different racial groups, and its wide-ranging manifestations. Second, the pathophysiology of anemia in the elderly is reviewed as pertains to three general etiological categories (nutritional, chronic diseases, and so-called “unexplained” anemias). Particular emphasis is given to pathophysiologic mechanisms of anemia that are potentially unique to this age group. Third, a practical approach to the diagnosis and management of anemia for this patient population for the practicing hematologist is provided. Finally, the public health implications of anemia in the elderly for key stakeholder constituencies will be discussed in the oral presentation."

"text": "\"The Age Antidote Len Kravitz, Ph. D. Since the 1960's the growth of the U. S. population aged over 65 has been twice that of the general population. By the year 2000, the number of men and women over age 65 in the U. S. is projected to increase to 32 million people, which will be approximately 20% of the population. The old-old population, those over the age of 75, is actually increasing the fastest. A lack of exercise during adult life is associated with deconditioning, fatigue, weakness, decrease in one's physical and mental health and well-being, the onset of disease, loss of self-esteem and self-efficacy, and an increase in depression and anxiety. The one intervention proposed to have the most eminent preventative and therapeutic impact on these age-related changes is physical activity. Physical activity for the elderly needs to take into account the individual's health status, fitness level and age. The relationship of these variables is very complex and variable to a number of factors. Therefore, the health fitness specialist should not view the elderly as being one homogeneous group. Although different terms are used in the literature, gerontologists have identified three broad categories of seniors: 1) old-old, or frail old, who are over 75 years of age, 2) young-old who are persons between 65 and 75 years, and 3) athletic-old, elders who have maintained a high level of fitness throughout their life (Elia, 1991) ."

What is the best way to assist my mom to get up off a chair other than automatic chair lifts. What are the best techniques to provide help for the elderly to get out of chairs? REPLY from Caring-for-Aging-Parents.com You're absolutely right, there are better methods for assisting seniors to get out of chairs. The method you describe - help her get out of the chair by holding her hands - is a very common technique. The main drawback of this method is that it can cause muscle and joint strain to both those assisting as well as the one being assisted (in this case your mom). Backs, shoulders and necks are the main areas at risk. For obvious reasons, it's important to keep both your mom and her caregivers healthy."

Preston is derived from the Olde English words “prēost” meaning ‘priest’ and “tūn” meaning ‘settlement, enclosure.’ Therefore, the name essentially means Priest Town. Incidentally, there are many towns and places named Preston throughout the United Kingdom and the United States. Preston was adopted as a given name in the 19th century but appears mainly associated with North America. Popularity of the Name Preston Although it’s never achieved a spot on the Top 100 list of most-favored boys’ names in the United States, Preston has maintained a respectable position on the charts for over 100 years. After dipping to its lowest point of usage in the 1970s, Preston starts to demonstrate improvement in the 1980s. Although the name never really makes any significant jumps one way or the other in the past 20 years, it still appears to be following the trend of “Last Names First” in America. Considered a male name (it’s not on the charts for the girls) Preston still retains an androgynous sound that doesn’t make it distinctly masculine. Given its “priestly” origin, the name doesn’t give off a religious fervor either."

"text": "‘It looked like they were blinded by smoke... they just walked to the edge and fell out.’ Victims who plummeted from Twin Towers By Tom Leonard Updated: 05:59 EDT, 11 September 201167View comments Almost all of them jumped alone, although eyewitnesses talked of a couple who held hands as they fell. One woman, in a final act of modesty, appeared to be holding down her skirt. Others tried to make parachutes out of curtains or tablecloths, only to have them wrenched from their grip by the force of their descent. The fall was said to take about ten seconds. It would vary according to the body position and how long it took to reach terminal velocity — around 125mph in most cases, but if someone fell head down with their body straight, as if in a dive, it could be 200mph. Horror: A person falls to their death after jumping from the north tower following the audacious terror strike which shocked the world a decade ago When they hit the pavement, their bodies were not so much broken as obliterated. Nothing more graphically spells out the horror of the 9/11 attacks on the Twin Towers than the grainy pictures of those poor souls frozen in mid-air as they fell to their deaths, tumbling in all manner of positions, after choosing to escape the suffocating smoke and dust, the flames and the steel-bending heat in the highest floors of the World Trade Centre. And yet, tragically, they are in many ways the forgotten victims of September 11. Even now, nobody knows for certain who they were or exactly how many they numbered."

"text": "Baby exercise jumpers (jolly jumpers)A baby exercise jumper (sometimes called a jolly jumper) is a suspended sling-style seat hanging from a spring and/or rubber cable that is clamped above a door architrave. It is designed to support a baby, who is not yet ready to stand, in a semi-standing position with the baby's feet touching the floor. Babies bounce in the seat by pushing with their feet against the floor. Child safety experts recommend that you don't use a jumper for your child and that a stationary play centre is a safer alternative. Some babies have been injured while using a jumper and overuse of the jumper could lead to delays when the child is learning to walk. Allowing children to play on the floor where they can reach for objects, roll, creep and crawl is very important for their development.

"text": "\"Preparing for Twins – Baby Essentials Checklist & Costs By Maurie Backman Posted in: Kids Share 3 Tweet Pin 100 Comments 1When my husband and I set out to have a second child, we were excited at the idea of giving our son a sibling. Little did we know that we’d wind up giving him two new siblings at once. When we got over the shock of discovering that were having twins, we started to rethink our budget. We’d initially planned to reuse most of our son’s baby gear to keep our new baby expenses to a minimum, but a second baby meant we needed additional items. Of course, there were other expenses to consider as well, such as extra diapers, wipes, and other day-to-day supplies. We realized we had to be judicious in our purchases, which meant not automatically buying two of every single item. If you’re expecting twins, fear not. While you may have to double up on certain items, there are plenty of things that your new babies should have no trouble sharing. Items to Double Up On Some items have to be purchased in pairs in order to keep your babies safe. Here’s a look at all the items you must have for each baby you’re bringing home."

Well, OK, maybe not much, but here's one very handy detail: 80% of all the icemaker problems you'll see can be corrected using a baby bottle! Icemakers are set to fill for X seconds regardless of actual water flow, and the volume of water required is specified in cc's. It just happens that a baby bottle's a really handy icemaker repair tool, because it is graduated in cc's! And it's compact enough to fit into those cramped freezer spaces where icemakers reside. Not to mention it's always good for a few questioning looks (techs: leave the nipple on, carry it in plain view in your tool bag, and see what happens!) But I digress. If your icemaker is producing small cubes, hollow cubes, huge cubes, or a solid slab of ice, one of the first things you want to check is the fill level. And it's not as difficult as you might think.

We put the same baby, in the same car seat, wearing the same few thin layers of clothes underneath – but changed which jacket/bunting she was wearing. In all four winter outfits we tightened the straps all the way ( as shown here ) – so there was only one finger’s worth of room at her collarbone, and you couldn’t pinch any slack at the collarbone. With 2 of the 4 winter outfits, her straps were just as snug with or without the outerwear. But with the other 2 we were deceived – as we had to loosen the straps by 4 inches to fit the bunting/snowsuit!What’s 4 inches to your child in a crash? A whole lot, says Miriam Manary of the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute (UMTRI) – as 4 inches significantly increases the risk of injury, and particularly head injury.

Sales of e-cigarettes have soared by 340 per cent in the past year as Britons turn to the electronic smoking devices in a bid to quit traditional cigarettes.

This means that although e-cigarette vapour is tobacco and tar-free and that the device does not require combustion, it could potentially increase a user’s risk of cancer. Mr Spria, who presented the study’s findings at the American Association of Cancer Research’s annual meeting this week, said he could not confirm or deny that e-cigarettes cause cancer, as the research is in its early stages. Further experiments are planned.+2Still unknown: The new research means e-cigarettes may be safer than normal tobacco cigarettes, but not as harmless as we first thought E-cigarettes have soared in popularity in recent years as consumers look for ‘healthier’ ways to continue smoking, rather than use gum or patches to quit the habit.

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search For the baseball term, see Batted ball. For the mechanical device, see Centrifugal governor. Dogs from two teams race against each other over parallel lines of jumps. The jump height is based on the smallest dog on each team. Flyball is a dog sport in which teams of dogs race against each other from a start/finish line, over a line of hurdles, to a box that releases a tennis ball to be caught when the dog presses the spring-loaded pad, then back to their handlers while carrying the ball. Flyball is run in teams of four dogs, as a relay. The course consists of four hurdles placed 10 feet (3 m) apart from each other, with the starting line six feet (1.8 m) from the first hurdle, and the flyball box 15 feet (4.5 m) after the last one, making for a 51-foot (15.5 m) length. The hurdle height is determined by the shoulder height of the smallest dog in the team. Under current North American Flyball Association (NAFA) rules this should be 5 inches (12.7 cm) below the withers height of the smallest dog, to a height of no less than 7 inches (20.3 cm) and no greater than 14 inches (40.6 cm). Current EFC (European Flyball Championship) rules limits the height to no less than 17.5 cm and no greater than 35 cm."
