How often do I need to Restain my Deck ? by Geoff Frink | Mar 26 , 2010 | Blog Posts Uncategorized How often do I need to Refinish / Stain my wood deck ? Your wood deck will need to be refinished about every 1 1 / 2 to 2 years . . This will depend on many factors such as exposure to sun and the product that you choose for treatment . AOLG uses TWP and Cabot products . . Here is an article from decks . com All wood decks should be stained to protect the wood from ultraviolet sun damage and moisture damage . This will prevent your deck from weather damage including checking and cracking . Decks . com recommends that you use a high quality oil based stain such as WoodDefender . The oil in the stain will help preserve the wood and keep it from drying out . Do n โ€™ t confuse a topical sealer for stain . Sealers only protect the wood from moisture . They do n โ€™ t protect the wood from checking and cracking when the wood dries out . Many Decks . com readers ask us , when should I stain my deck ? For the best results you should stain cedar , redwood , exotic hardwoods , and clear pressure treated decks soon as possible after the deck is built and every Spring

We tell my patients that bladder tumor resection is often curative , but it also provides information and a diagnosis in terms of aggressiveness of the tumor , chances of cure and recurrence . Bladder Tumor Resection Information Transurethral Resection of Bladder Tumor Pre - Procedure Post Procedure Bowels Activity Catheter Diet and Fluid Expected Signs and Symptoms Follow - up Long Term Transurethral Resection of Bladder Tumor No incisions ! That โ€™ s the good part . The entire procedure is done under general anesthesia ( asleep ) via the urethra ( penis ) . We now utilize state - of - the - art high definition cameras to visualize the bladder . We then use plasma - vaporization devices to basically remove the bladder tumor . The best way to think of a bladder tumor is that it is a weed . Just like weeds , there are weeds with superficial roots that you can pluck right out , and there are weeds with deep roots For superficial tumors , TURBT is often curative ( fully treated ) . For deeper tumors , further treatment is necessary . For some patients , at the conclusion of the case , we utilize a medicine such as Mitomycin - C ( I call it my version of weed - killer ) to reduce the chance of bladder tumor recurrence . TURBT is usually performed in the hospital or outpatient surgical center , and takes approximately 1 hour . Pre - Procedure It is critical that you stop any Aspirin , Coumadin , Plavix , or other blood thinners one week before TURBT . Please call our office should you have any questions about this . The night before your procedure , you may eat and drink as usual . However , do not take anything by mouth after 12 : 00 midnight the night before . Wear comfortable , loose - fitting clothing like a jogging suit on the day of your procedure . Bring a list of all the prescription and nonprescription medications that you take regularly with you on Please plan to arrive two hours prior to your treatment . The TURBT usually takes approximately 1 hour , and Dr . Shaw will come and speak to your family afterwards . Upon wakening from the procedure , you will have a catheter draining your bladder . I have yet to meet a person who likes having a catheter , but relax , the catheter typically will remain for 3 - 5 days and then removed in clinic . Because we have effectively removed a small part of the bladder with the tumor removal , this needs to heal , or seal back up . A catheter for a few days accomplishes this . It is common for the catheter to drain pink or red urine . Just as Kool - Aid can turn water red with just a small amount of coloring , just a small amount of blood turns the urine red . If there are clots , or more significant blood in the urine , Dr . Shaw may opt to keep you in the hospital overnight and discharge you in the morning . You will be given full instructions from our nurse on how to manage , and drain the foley catheter bag when it gets full . It is not unusual to have a sensation of wanting to urinate , or to have bladder spasms after surgery . This usually goes away within 1 - 2 days . You may occasionally notice a small amount of urine leak around the catheter , and this is normal . Post Procedure After the procedure , patients may have a variety of minor issues . Although many patients may do fine with no issues , some patients may experience minor , temporary issues such as noticing burning with urination , frequent urination , small clots , or pink / red colored urine , or occasional discomfort that radiates from the kidney to the bladder . Again , these usually tend to be minor issues , and resolve within 1 - 2 days after the procedure . Definitely rest up for a day or two after a TURBT . Drink at least 6 For pain , Advil ยฎ , Motrin ยฎ , or prescription Toradol ยฎ work great โ€“ dependent upon your doctor โ€™ s advice . Never take a medication without clearing it with your doctor first . These are non - narcotic , so you do n โ€™ t get sleepy , constipated or have other issues ; however they are great anti - inflammatories . Take them on a regular basis the first 2 - 3 days after the procedure . For pain not relieved by these medications , use the prescription Tylenol with Codeine or Vicodin that was prescribed Bowels Do not strain when having a bowel movement . Expect irregular bowel habits until fully recovered . Increase fiber in your diet . You may need a stool softener or laxative . Do not take blood thinners or aspirin products for one week or as directed by your physician . Activity Take it easy for the first 48 hours after the procedure . Do not drive or operate dangerous equipment for 48 hours following anesthesia . You may be able to resume non - strenuous activities after 48 hours unless otherwise directed by your physician . Avoid strenuous exercise , heavy lifting greater than 20 pounds , bike riding , and yard work for two weeks , as the vibrations and movement may cause bleeding . No sexual activity for two weeks after surgery . Catheter You will need a catheter to drain your bladder , depending upon the extent of your surgery . Catheters generally are removed within a few days in the Urology Clinic . Wash around the catheter with soap and water and rinse well . You may shower , but avoid baths until the catheter is removed . Diet and Fluid Avoid coffee , tea , carbonated beverages , alcoholic beverages , citrus juices , spicy foods and smoking for the first month week following surgery . Increase your intake of fluids , particularly water โ€“ at least 6 - 8 glasses of water are typically recommended during the first two weeks of your recovery . Expected Signs and Symptoms You may experience urinary urgency and / or frequency for the first month following surgery . This is normal . Talk to your doctor to discuss medications that may relieve this . You may have a small amount of bleeding with urination on occasion . This may be accompanied with small blood clots . This is normal , and should be relieved by increasing your fluid intake . You may experience some mild burning and discomfort during urination . This is normal and should subside in one to two to four weeks . Follow - up Usually , Dr . Shaw or his staff will communicate to you a desired followup time frame . Please call us the day after the procedure to verify a time to see us in the office , and to remove your catheter . Long Term The only problem with bladder tumors , is that just like weeds , they have a nasty habit of coming back . The problem is that the source of the bladder tumor , which 90 % of the time is associated with smoking , has affected the entire bladder . And those effects are long lasting . That means that we place each of our patients through a very rigorous , scientifically validated protocol for surveillance of tumor recurrence . The great news is that bladder cancer , when detected early , and managed properly , can be managed with

Welcome to Sydney Australia Sydney , many people worldwide know the name and have the famous opera house in mind as shown above when thinking about it , but there is much more to see and to do as we will show you on this website . But before we go on with telling you more about this site just some general information about Sydney . Sydney , state capital of NSW , is with a population of approximately 4.4 million the largest city in Australia . The city is often called " the Harbour City " because the many boats that go for anchor at one of the city harbours . Sydney was the first British colony in Australia and was established in the year 1788 by Arthur Phillip , commodore of the 1st . British fleet at a location called Sydney Cove . The history of the Sydney region goes actually back in time for at least 30.000 years . The first indigenous Australians who lived there centuries ago in Sydney cove are the Cadigal people . These aboriginal Australians as Cadigal people are also called where living from the south or Port Jackson to Petersham region . The city is surrounded by many nature parks , beautiful bays with boats and rivers so it is a true paradise for nature lovers who like water sports like sailing , scuba diving , jet skying or water skying behind a motorboat . The famous Sydney Opera House with his unique shape and Harbour Bridge are just some of the city most recognisable structures that are shown on many Sydney tourist information sheets bought at local stores . Sydney is known for warm summers and cool winters and rainfall possibilities during all weather seasons . With January as the warmest month and average daily temperatures of 27 Degrees Celsius and July as the coldest month with average daily temperatures of 10 Degrees Celsius tourist can actually travel to Sydney when they find the temperature most convenient for them . There are many ways of transportation in Sydney . By car , as most residents do is probably the fastest way as the nine metro ads or primary road routes do bring you everywhere fast . Besides that Sydney does also offer also a very extensive train , bus or ferry network to get to any point of the city for a fair price . In case your in a hurry a Taxi might be the best solution as its faster then public transportation but more costly too . This website will show you a collection of pictures from Sydney and each picture comes with relevant information about what it is , where it is and the history of it . Especially for students this might be usefull but also for people who are planning to visit Sydney in the near future . We are not only showing you pictures of the city itself but also the area just outside the city like Balmoral Island , an island paradise just 10 Km drive from Sydney โ€™ s business district or Botany bay a white sand beach near Sydney . Just check it out for yourself .

Discover & Learn Animal factsheets Worms Segmented worms - The Polychaetes Segmented worms - The Polychaetes Updated 12 / 04 / 19 Read time 10 minutes On this page . . . Polychaetes What is a polychaete worm ? Polychaete evolution Classifying polychaetes Where do polychaetes live ? Protection and predation How do polychaetes reproduce ? How are polychaetes found and identified ? Polychaetes as marine pest Originally classified within the Phylum Annelida , together with the earth - worms ( Class Oligochaeta ) and the leeches ( Class Hirudinea ) , recent studies have failed to show that the annelids are a monophyletic group . This means that currently , the term โ€˜ polychaetes โ€™ should be used , rather than โ€˜ Annelida โ€™ . Polychaetes now include all the traditional polychaete families as well as the leeches , earthworms , and the siboglinids , sometimes known as โ€˜ beard worms โ€™ . What is a polychaete worm ? Polychaete worms are segmented invertebrates that have bodies consisting of : two presegmental regions : the prostomium and peristomium ( the ' head ' region ) a segmented trunk ( the ' body ' ) a postsegmental pygidium ( the ' tail ' region ) The body wall consists of circular and longitudinal muscle layers enclosing a body coelom ( fluid - filled space ) . Usually , poychaetes have a well defined head with sensory and / or feeding appendages , followed by numerous body segments that may be divided into thoracic and abdominal regions . Typically , each segment has a pair of parapodia - ' feet ' - with chaetae ( bristles ) . Polychaete body shapes are as diverse as their lifestyles , and are adapted to the habitats that they live in . For example , species that burrow through sediments ( like the capitellids ) tend to have few , if any , sensory or feeding appendages and reduced parapodia ; in contrast , nereidids that crawl actively over the substrate ( bottom ) have well developed sensory appendages and parapodia . Polychaete evolution Traditionally , polychaetes consist of about 72 families and these are grouped into a series of clades . Clade is the preferred term to assigning them an actual taxonomic rank ( such as order ) as the relationships among clades , and in some cases even their exact composition , are still being debated . The lack of a good fossil record for polychaetes , because they are soft - bodied worms that do n ' t often leave useful fossils , means that evolutionary relationships can be hard to determine . However it is clear that they are an old group , with some fossil polychaetes known from the Ediacaran period ( around 580 โ€“ 545 million years ago ) . Since that time , many polychaetes would have evolved and become extinct , making today โ€™ s polychaetes the descendants of a very ancient lineage . Classifying polychaetes Many morphological ( external ) characters , while closely resembling each other , may not necessarily indicate that species are closely related ( i.e. are homologous structures - look the same , but arise from different origins ) . Instead , these features may have evolved over long periods of time in response to the similar environments in which the species live . So , while similar terms have been used across the families to describe particular traits , they may not represent homologous structures . This makes the coding of characters for phylogenetic ( relationships ) analysis difficult . Few polychaetes have common names , so it is more common , and more useful , to use scientific names when discussing families , genera and species . Closer to arthropods or molluscs ? Not only are the relationships within the polychaetes still being actively debated , but also the relationships of these segmented worms to other invertebrate groups . For many years , polychaetes were thought to be most closely related to the arthropods ( insects , spiders etc ) , based upon the presence of segmentation in both groups . Recently , however , it has been shown that they may be closer to molluscs ( snails , slugs , squid et . c . ) . Polychaetes remain one of the last large groups of invertebrates for which a widely accepted Where do polychaetes live ? Polychaetes occur throughout the world in all habitats from the supralittoral ( above the shore line ) to the deepest parts of the ocean . They are predominantly marine or estuarine but a few species occur in moist terrestrial environments . Most are free living although some are commensal or parasitic . Currently over 13 000 polychaete species have been described worldwide and many more remain to be described . They range from species a few millimetres or less in length with few segments to those many centimetres in length and hundreds of segments . Many benthic ( seafloor ) marine communities are dominated by polychaetes , not only in the overall number of species but also by the sheer number of individuals present . In estuarine environments with fluctuating salinity levels , the species diversity is lower , but individual worms may be abundant . On coral reefs such as the Great Barrier Reef , polychaetes are diverse and abundant in inter - reef sediments and also as borers or nestlers in dead coral substrate . Some polychaete families , such as the serpulids , always live in calcareous tubes that are firmly attached to hard substrates or to other organisms such as algae , seagrasses , molluscs or crab carapaces . The plankton around the reef contains pelagic ( free - living ) adults , as well as the larval stages of many species , are also found in the reefal plankton . In Ecosystem services Reef polychaetes are important at all levels of the ecosystem . Many of those living in the substratum are important because they play a major role in ' bioturbation ' , which is the breaking down of organic sedimentary matter as it passes through their bodies ; others also shred plant material , making it more available to other living things . Other polychaete species found on the reef are active carnivores , such as the large fire worms commonly found underneath boulders or rubble at the base of reefs . Polychaetes are also abundant in seagrass beds and mangrove areas , where large concentrations of organic matter accumulate from shed leaves . On intertidal reef flats , these soft - bodied worms are an important food source for wading birds at low tide , and for fish and crustaceans at high tide . The distribution of polychaetes is largely dependent on the type of substrate present . For example : the size and type of sediment for burrowers the presence of suitable reef substrate for the borers and nestlers hard substrates for the encrusting species to settle on suitable algal substrate for species that live in seaweed Additional factors such as exposure and water currents are important for filter - feeding organisms . Species living in sediments need to have stable sediments , so high energy beach environments are typically low in the number of species and individuals . Protection and predation As all polychaetes are soft - bodied , they need protection from predators . This is achieved either by secreting a tube into which they can rapidly retract or by living in habitats where they can burrow and avoid predators . A few species have developed additional anti - predator strategies . For example , the numerous spiny chaetae ( bristles ) of amphinomids may make them unpalatable to fish and other predators . However , fish and bird gut contents reveal that polychaetes are an important prey item for many species and , even when buried in sediments , polychaetes can be preyed upon , providing an easily digestible and abundant food source . How do polychaetes reproduce ? Polychaetes exhibit an amazing diversity of reproductive strategies , including both sexual and asexual reproduction . While most polychaetes are dioecious ( males and females separate ) , some species are hermaphrodites ( possess both male and female organs ) , and others may be males at particular times of their life and then become females later . Polychaetes may live for a few weeks or months to many years . Some breed continuously over several months , while others are restricted to spawning on a single day . Some species mate actively , with the male fertilising the eggs as they are laid and , in some cases , the fertilised eggs are then placed under the scales . In some tube - dwellers , the eggs are brooded within their tubes , or placed in the chamber below the operculum , while others lay their fertilised eggs in brood capsules that are then attached to the substrate where development occurs . In some cases , the developing embryos are cannibals , eating some of the other embryos , but in other cases the large yolky eggs have Other species are broadcast spawners with gametes being released into the water column where fertilisation occurs . The fertilised eggs develop into free swimming larvae , or trochophores , that spend from a few hours to many weeks in the plankton before settling and metamorphosing into adult worms . Some larvae feed while in the plankton while other species , which produce large yolky eggs , do not . Most of the terebellids , for example , produce large yolky eggs and the pelagic larval stage is almost non - existent . Instead , crawling bottom - dwelling larvae are How are polychaetes found and identified ? It is not easy to see many polychaetes while diving , but sometimes the tentacles of some species can be seen spread over the substrate , or the expanded branchial crowns of sabellids and serpulids . At night more tentacles can be seen spreading out over the substrate or outstretched , fishing , in the water column , but all can rapidly retract back into their burrows when disturbed . However , polychaete diversity is revealed when sediment samples are collected and sorted under the microscope , or when pieces of dead coral substrate are split open to reveal borers Polychaetes as marine pest Marine species are being transported accidently around the world via ballast water and as hull fouling organisms on ships . While some of the species introduced never become established in their new environment , some species prosper and become pests . A range of animals have become marine pests including several species of polychaetes and it is very difficult to eradicate such species once they have become established . Just think of how much time and money has been spent trying to eradicate rabbits or cane toads on the land , imagine how much more difficult it is to eliminate Pat Hutchings has been involved in various port surveys which have been conducted around Australia to identify introduced species . Correct identification of the fauna is critical and in many areas the native fauna is poorly documented . It is not always easy to distinguish between introduced species and undescribed native species , and some of the work which Pat and Maria Capa are undertaking is trying to resolve some of these questions and often requires using both morphological and molecular characters . worm worms Polychaetes

Of the 45 House of Representatives elections since 1901 , no women were elected in 25 ( 55.6 % ) . It was n โ€™ t until the seventeenth election in 1943 that Dame Enid Lyons ( UAP / Lib ) became the first woman to be elected to the House . Concurrently , Dorothy Tangney ( ALP ) won election as the first female senator . Doris Blackburn ( Independent Labour ) was elected to the House in 1946 . There were no women elected to the House in the 1950s and just one each in the 1960s ( Kay Brownbill ) and 1970s ( Joan Child ) . The 1977 federal election was the last time no women were elected to the House . Nine were elected in the 1980s . In the 1990s , 41 women were elected for the first time , whilst another 25 joined the House in the 2000s . In the three elections from 2010 , including by - elections , another 37 women have been elected for the first time . Reflecting the recent increase in female representation , 46 ( 39.65 % ) of the 116 female members since Federation are currently serving . Only 8 ( 6.89 % ) of the 116 have died . Of the 71 former female members , 36 ( 50.7 % ) were defeated at an election . Sharryn Jackson was defeated , re - elected and defeated again . Joan Child Fran Bailey and Teresa Gambaro were each defeated , re - elected , and then retired . Of the 71 former female members , 33 ( 46.4 % ) ultimately chose their own time to retire . Four women left the House after losing a preselection or retiring in the face of a denial of preselection . One member ( Jackie Kelly ) was disqualified under Section 44 of the Constitution but was comfortably re - elected and went on to win four terms . Six of the 116 women have also served in the Senate , four before entering the House ( Kathy Sullivan / Martin , Bronwyn Bishop , Cheryl Kernot and Belinda Neal ) , and two after leaving the House ( Deborah O โ€™ Neill Pauline Hanson ) . Six of the 116 women have served in state parliaments . Dr Carmen Lawrence ( WA ) and Jill Hall ( NSW ) served in the federal parliament after leaving state parliament , whilst Silvia Smith ( Tas ) , Michelle O โ€™ Byrne ( Tas ) and Yvette D โ€™ Ath ( Qld ) served first in the House . The ALP โ€™ s Allanah MacTiernan ( WA ) served as a member and a minister at the state level before completing one term in the House and then returning as a member and minister at the state level .

Lime Based Stucco and Plasters Lime based internal and external plaster and stucco have been employed extensively in construction and design for centuries . The process and magnificence of these lime based plaster โ€™ s depended predominantly around the knowledge and expertise from the local community artisan within respective regions , along with the character of the nearby resources . The Northeast witnessed robust north Western European influence while using lime based stucco on soft clay - based brick or natural stone , whilst in the Southwest Indigenous American and Spanish influences were melded , where lime based plaster and stucco have been and continue Up until the 1930s most external plaster applications which are stucco , have been lime and sand only . Portland cement was formerly restricted to concrete production nonetheless its utilization in exterior renders elevated with all the evolving construction styles from all brick and natural stone components to solid timber framework structures . the advantage and purpose of external plaster expanded from being specifically applied to substantial surface types of brick or natural stone providing simply a weather barrier , to one in which a level of flexural resistance is imparted towards the design . Incorporating cement improved both equally the value and speed of compressive strength progression that was required for the modern building design . Classic lime based stucco lime based stucco is commonly employed utilizing a 3 layer technique , the initial layer known as the base , scratch , spatter dash or bond coat , is applied on the substrate , which might vary from permeable adobe brick to cement masonry to EPS sheets covered with wire mesh . In such cases the initial coating covers the complete substrate and is keyed horizontally whilst damp to supply support for the second or brown coat and create a physical or mechanical key . This subsequent layer known as the Brown or leveling layer smooths out the bumps and hollows telegraphed from your substrate material , in addition to any developed by the 1st coat . should water permeate the final layer , this 2nd layer provides for a distinctive line of protection from water ingress . The 3rd or finish coat delivers the cosmetic qualities of finish in addition to offering safeguards from water penetration . It was designed to accept water and permit it to quickly wick away . Powdered or liquid Pigments are frequently combined with the final layer furnishing a long - lasting colour with decreased routine maintenance . In the event the finish layer does n โ€™ t have integral colour it may be painted , one particular option of paint utilizes pigment and lime slurried with water into a milk like consistency . Basically lime putty with extra water added creating a lime paint or lime wash . Lime based plaster and stucco โ€ฆ .Why ? Applied utilizing the 3 coat procedure lime based stucco is among the most durable and long lasting exterior wall surface finishes obtainable . employed mainly to protect such non - durable materials as Adobe and clay brick , concrete masonry , and timber framework , lime based stucco provides durability , flexibility , breath ability and fire protection , that many other materials are lacking . Additionally , lime based stucco can certainly cater to a range of attractive architectural designs , such as today โ€™ s popular West Coast tudor , Mediterranean , Spanish , as well as the By incorporating lime into your stucco mix you enjoy numerous significant advantages , both equally when the stucco is wet , or in its plastic state , and after it โ€™ s hardened Hardening Properties Lime naturally bonds with all of the aggregate during hardening contributing to the overall strength of the finish . lime based plaster and stucco hardens by transforming calcium hydroxide to calcium carbonate by reacting using the co2 in the air . Consequently the continuing conversion process heals fine cracks and fissures as it solidifies , in turn this reduces water penetration whilst improving the durability of the stucco finish . lime based stucco minimizes water penetration and enables what water vapor if present to escape easily , quickly , and efficiently These qualities avoid the degeneration in the substrate components whilst extending the valuable lifetime of the construction . lime based plaster and stucco are both noncombustible and non - toxic it possesses a natural thermal sink which slow down fire infiltration to flammable building components and supplies a margin of protection to building residents . the flexibility of lime based plaster and stucco withstands cracking from shrinkage and settling .

Can a MRI Detect Autism ? By Ella Rain Autism Author Source Can a MRI detect autism ? It is possible that brain scans are a breakthrough in diagnosing autism accurately . What Is MRI MRI ( magnetic resonance imaging ) is a medical test that is similar to an X - ray , but MRI uses radio frequency pulses and a magnetic field to produce images rather than radiation . The images appear on a computer monitor , and they can be printed , transmitted electronically or put on a compact disc . The imaging procedure has been used to identify brain damage and tumors , and it is a common tool in many autism studies as well . The imaging test may be the most promising approach to detecting autism early . Can a MRI Detect Autism ? Magnetic resonance imaging has been a staple for autism research for quite some time , and it stands to reason that the imaging test would be part of identifying autistic disorders . Signature Brain Activity A study by the Yale School of Medicine used functional magnetic resonance imaging ( fMRI ) to examine brain activity in children with autism , their unaffected siblings , and in normal children . The study found three important " neural signatures " : Reduced brain activity in both autistic children and their siblings Reduced brain activity exclusively in children with autistic disorders Increased activity found only in non - autistic siblings According to the Science Daily press release , the increased brain activity in siblings of children with autism may be the brain compensating for autistic tendencies . The compensatory activity may have prevented autism from developing , in spite of the genetic predisposition for autism . Right and Left Hemispheres The right and left hemispheres of the brain must work together for the brain to function properly . A brain MRI may detect autism by showing dysfunction in connectivity . Researchers from the University of Utah found that an MRI can find problems in communication between the hemispheres of the brain . Lange Study Nicholas Lange is the lead author of an exciting study from McLean Hospital , an affiliate of Harvard University that was able to detect autism using an MRI with 94 percent accuracy . The scans examine six areas of brain circuitry that involve emotional , language and social functioning . The imaging process used diffusion tensor imaging , which further refines magnetic resonance imaging . Impact of MRI Diagnosing Autism Can a MRI detect autism ? It appears to be a very promising strategy for accurate diagnosis of autistic disorders . This can have a profound impact on families and individuals affected by the spectrum . Early Identification Diagnosing autism can be very difficult because the process involves behavioral observation . Tests such as CARS are common approaches to detecting pervasive developmental disorders , but evaluators ca n ' t always make an accurate diagnosis until the child is at least 18 to 36 months old . Imagining scans are promising because they may be able to identify brain abnormalities before they manifest in the child ' s behavior and social interactions . Accurate Diagnosis of Autistic Disorders A brain scan autism diagnosis has great weight , which can lessen the skepticism about whether the disorder is over - diagnosed . Some people are quick to assume that children with behavior problems and poor social skills are products of their environment , as evidenced by Michael Savage ' s comments about autism . If MRI accurately detects autism , the diagnosis has scientific backing . In addition , it can rule out PDD if it is n ' t present . This ensures that the affected individual gets appropriate treatment . Autism Breakthrough : Brain Scans Detect Autism Early identification and intervention are extremely important in treating pervasive developmental disorders , and an objective medical test that detects them accurately is an exciting breakthrough . While the brain scans detect autism , more testing is necessary before the approach becomes clinical practice . In trials , the test shows great promise as MRI successfully detects autism , and this approach has a very promising future .

Home Supplements by Health Issue Neurological Lions Mane for Neurological Support Lions Mane for Neurological Support 2100 SKU AC003 Weight 025 LBS Quantity Share Product Description Lions mane is an edible mushroom that has been used for centuries in traditional Asian cuisine and medicine Recent research indicates it may be of benefit for improving memory increasing alertness and promoting nervous system health One of the worlds leading mycologists mushroom biologists Paul Stamets is quoted as saying Lions Mane mushroom mycelium is natures nutrients for your neurons Because of studies indicating its ability to help repair damaged nerves Lions Mane is being tested and adapted for a variety of treatment areas that include neuropathy Parkinsons Disease and Alzheimers Preliminary research indicates Lions Mane may support growth and repair of neurons through stimulating the production of Nerve Growth Factor NGF a small protein that is crucial to the growth maintenance and survival of certain types of neurons Without NGF these neurons would undergo apoptosis cell death NFG therefore plays an essential role of keeping your whole nervous system alive and strong Not only does NGF keep neurons alive and stimulate the remylination of neurons but it is also shown to stimulate the production of new neurons in your central nervous system as well as in peripheral nervous system The bloodbrain barrier is a semipermeable membrane that works as a filtering mechanism carrying blood to the central nervous system The NGF protein happens to be too large to travel across this membrane though However Lions Mane has been shown to be exceptionally active in stimulating the synthesis of Nerve Growth Factor NGF It contains substances that stimulate NGF production and pass easily through the bloodbrain barrier One of these substances called hericenones actually stimulates the brain to produce more NGF The other even more powerful substance is called erinacines Erincacines is small enough to pass through the critical bloodbrain barrier and can therefore work within the brain to foster NGF production which in turn boosts the production of new neurons Understanding of this process is so critical that those who discovered it Rita LeviMontalcini and Stanly Cohen received the 1986 Nobel Prize for Medicine Lions Mane is well on its way to being a critical element of treatment options related to this process In a 2009 doubleblind study in Japan 5080 year old men and women diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment were given Lions Mane Those not given the placebo were given 1 gram of Lions Mane powder 3 times a day for 16 weeks At weeks 812 16 and of the trial group taking the Lions mane showed significantly increased scores on cognitive function compared with the placebo group but at week 4 after terminationof the 16 weeks score decreased significantly Laboratory testing showed no adverse effect of taking the Lions Mane The results obtained suggest that Lions Mane is effective in Click here for a link to the citation in pubmedorg In another small Japanese study with a randomized sample of 30 women ingesting lions mane showed that HE intake has the possibility to reduce depression and anxiety and these results suggest a different mechanism from NGFenhancing action of H erinaceus Nagano et al 2010 Recently mice were injected with neurotoxic peptides in an experiment to assess the effects of lions mane on the type of amyloid plaque formation seen in Alzheimers patients The mice were then challenged in a standard Y maze designed for testing memory Mice fed with a normal diet were compared to those supplemented with lions mane mushrooms As the peptideinduced plaque developed the mice lost the ability to memorize the maze When these memoryimpaired mice were fed a diet containing 5 percent dried lions mane mushrooms for 23 days the beta amyloid placques were significantly reduced and the mice performed The reduction of beta amyloid plaques in the brains of mushroomfed mice vs the mice not fed any mushrooms was remarkable The formation of amyloid plaques is what many researchers believe is a primary morphological biomarker associated with Alzheimers Plaques linked to beta amyloid peptide inflame brain tissue interfere with healthy neuron transmission and are indicated in nerve degeneration In 2008 Japans Tohoku University researched the stimulatory effects of different edible mushroom on NGF in a study reported in the Biological and Pharmaceutical Bulletin Their conclusion was that Lions Mane affects the production of enzymes that signal NGF to be released Another study in 2009 from the Mushroom Laboratory in Japan published in Phytotherapy Research also determined that it was an effective complimentary treatment for mild cognitive impairment and for best results recommended that it should be used regularly Here is a 2014 video presentation by micologist Paul Stamets on

Prompt Hierarchy Education by shelly andrews | Apr 3 , 2013 | blog 0 comments There are many prompting strategies in the world today , but the approach you will hear about most often in ABA therapy is the use of prompting hierarchies : most - to - least and least - to - most . A most - to - least prompting strategy is used when the student is learning a new skill for the very first time and has shown no signs of success in the past . The first attempt is prompted with the most intrusive prompt appropriate to help the student catch on to the new skill quickly . The first attempt is then followed by a second attempt , using a less intrusive prompt . The second successful , less prompted attempt is then reinforced . A least - to - most prompting strategy is used when the learner has shown signs of success with the skill in the past . In this case , the first attempt is prompted with the least intrusive prompt possible and reinforcement is provided . For example , say we want the child to initiate clapping his or her hands . Starting with the least intrusive prompt , this is what teaching a child to do so , while using the Prompt Hierarchy , would look like : Gesture : A gesture is simply a signal that prompts a response . This can be a motioning with our hands or an exaggerated look at the student โ€™ s hands . This could also look like pointing to the child โ€™ s hand to signal we want him or her to clap or even giving the sign for โ€œ clap hands โ€ if the child โ€™ s way to communicate is through basic sign language . Partial Physical Prompt : A partial physical prompt is usually done by starting to physically prompt the child to complete the task and suddenly backing off to allow them to complete the task before we have completely provided full assistance . With clapping , this could look like taking the child โ€™ s wrist and placing them together and then letting go to see if they will continue the motions of clapping . Physical Prompt : In short , physical prompting is hand over hand assistance . While teaching the child to clap while using a physical prompt , straighten out the child โ€™ s fingers and hold on to their wrists while assisting them to clap . Do this for the child for three claps and start the prompt hierarchy over again , this time ending at a partial physical prompt . If a full Physical Prompt is still required , keep practicing using the prompt hierarchy and make sure you provide positive praise to encourage least intrusive prompting . You can do this by Verbal Prompting : This prompt level is self - explanatory . Verbal prompting is just that โ€ฆ verbally giving the child the instructions of what to do . With clapping , this would look like saying โ€œ Clap your Hands โ€ or โ€œ Clap โ€ . We want to avoid verbal prompting as much as possible if we want to encourage independence . The less effort we exert , the more the child is doing for themselves . If we are constantly providing verbal prompting , the child will always look for directions and instructions on what to do from you . If Going from prompt level to prompt level is referred to as โ€œ prompt fading . โ€ The main goal is for the learner to eventually not need any prompts and become independent with the skill at hand . As the learner becomes successful at a particular prompt level , the prompt is then faded to a less intrusive prompt . This ensures that the learner does not become overly dependent on a particular prompt when learning a new skill . You will want to move as quickly as possible through the prompt levels , but not too quickly ! Moving Remember to provide a stronger means of reinforcement for each success with least intrusive prompting . This will encourage independence and give the learner a higher success rate . Typically , this means starting off with simple verbal praise at the most intrusive prompt level , and scaling our praise up a notch with each level of prompt mastery . Once you go from Verbal Prompting or Physical Prompting , you will most likely want to move into physical reinforcement , such as high fives or hugs . Leave the best reinforcement for independence to show the learner great things All of this may sound like things only an ABA Therapist should know about ; however , I strongly believe in Parent Trainings and Parent Education on what we do every day . Once you know our tricks and strategies , you may see more generalization with your child . This means they have the ability to perform tasks in a variety of settings . This also contributes to a more independent child and that โ€™ s exactly what we all want for each of our clients and their families !

HowStuffWorks Auto Under the Hood Transmissions & Drivetrain How Automatic Transmissions Work by Karim Nice Overdrive Prev NEXT By definition , an overdrive has a faster output speed than input speed . It ' s a speed increase โ€” the opposite of a reduction . In this transmission , engaging the overdrive accomplishes two things at once . If you read How Torque Converters Work , you learned about lockup torque converters . In order to improve efficiency , some cars have a mechanism that locks up the torque converter so that the output of the engine goes straight to the transmission . In this transmission , when overdrive is engaged , a shaft that is attached to the housing of the torque converter ( which is bolted to the flywheel of the engine ) is connected by clutch to the planet carrier . The small sun gear freewheels , and the larger sun gear is held by the overdrive band . Nothing is connected to the turbine ; the only input comes from the converter housing . Let ' s go back to our chart again , this time with the planet carrier for input , the sun gear fixed and the Ratio = 1 / ( 1 + S / R ) = 1 / ( 1 + 36 / 72 ) = 0.67 : 1 So the output spins once for every two - thirds of a rotation of the engine . If the engine is turning at 2000 rotations per minute ( RPM ) , the output speed is 3000 RPM . This allows cars to drive at freeway speed while the engine speed stays nice and slow . Move the shift lever to see how power is transmitted through the transmission . 1 8 9 10 15 NEXT

HowStuffWorks Auto Driving & Safety Safety & Regulatory Devices How does an air bag work Up Next Air bags have saved thousands of lives since their introduction in the early 1980s . If you run into something , your air bag can inflate in less than a tenth of a second to protect you from the forces of a head - on collision . There are three parts to an air bag . First , there is the bag itself , which is made of thin , nylon fabric and folded into the steering wheel or the dash board . Then there is the sensor that tells the bag to inflate . It detects a collision force equal to running into a brick wall at 10 to 15 miles per hour ( 16 to 24 kph ) . Finally , there is the inflation system . Air bags are actually inflated by the equivalent of a solid rocket booster . Sodium azide ( NaN 3 ) and potassium nitrate ( KNO 3 ) react very quickly to produce a large pulse of hot nitrogen gas . This gas inflates the bag , which literally bursts out of the steering wheel or dashboard as it expands . About a second later , the bag is already deflating ( it has holes in it ) in order to get out of your way .

HowStuffWorks Auto Under the Hood Engines Types of Engines How Diesel Engines Work by Marshall Brain Diesel Fuel Prev NEXT A sample of diesel fuel Staff / Getty Images Petroleum fuel starts off as crude oil that ' s naturally found in the Earth . When crude oil is processed at refineries , it can be separated into several different kinds of fuels , including gasoline , jet fuel , kerosene and , of course , diesel . If you have ever compared diesel fuel and gasoline , you know that they are different . They certainly smell different . Diesel fuel is heavier and oilier . It evaporates much more slowly than gasoline - - its boiling point is actually higher than the boiling point of water . You will often hear diesel fuel referred to as " diesel oil " because it ' s so oily . Diesel fuel evaporates more slowly because it is heavier . It contains more carbon atoms in longer chains than gasoline does ( gasoline is typically C9H20 , while diesel fuel is typically C14H30 ) . It takes less refining to create diesel fuel , which is why it used to be cheaper than gasoline . Since 2004 , however , demand for diesel has risen for several reasons , including increased industrialization and construction in China and the U.S. [ source : Energy Information Administration ] . Diesel fuel has a higher energy density than gasoline . On average , 1 gallon ( 3.8 L ) of diesel fuel contains approximately 155x10 6 joules ( 147,000 BTU ) , while 1 gallon of gasoline contains 132x10 6 joules ( 125,000 BTU ) . This , combined with the improved efficiency of diesel engines , explains why diesel engines get better mileage than equivalent gasoline engines . Diesel fuel is used to power a wide variety of vehicles and operations . It of course fuels the diesel trucks you see lumbering down the highway , but it also helps move boats , school buses , city buses , trains , cranes , farming equipment and various emergency response vehicles and power generators . Think about how important diesel is to the economy - - without its high efficiency , both the construction industry and farming businesses would suffer immensely from investments in fuels with low power and efficiency . About 94 percent of freight - - whether In terms of the environment , diesel has some pros and cons . The pros - - diesel emits very small amounts of carbon monoxide , hydrocarbons and carbon dioxide , emissions that lead to global warming . The cons - - high amounts of nitrogen compounds and particulate matter ( soot ) are released from burning diesel fuel , which lead to acid rain , smog and poor health conditions .

HowStuffWorks Auto Fuel Efficiency Fuel - efficient Vehicles How Electric Car Batteries Work by Christopher Lampton The Lifecycle of an Electric Car Battery Prev Up Next How long will an electric car battery last ? The lithium - ion battery pack in the Tesla Roadster is projected to have a lifespan of about 5 years or 100,000 miles . At the end of that time the pack will need to be replaced , at a cost of approximately $ 10,000 . Sure , that ' s expensive , but the Roadster itself will cost almost $ 100,000 , which makes the cost of the battery pack seem affordable . Many , perhaps most , owners will no doubt prefer to replace the battery pack rather than buy a brand new Roadster . Justin Sullivan / Getty Images The 2009 Tesla Roadster is an all - electric , zero emissions vehicle capable of traveling nearly 250 miles on a single charge . Admittedly , battery maintenance costs will add to the expense of operating any EV . The battery packs that are used in EVs will be kept tightly contained , so you ' ll most likely need to take your EV to the dealership to have your battery serviced . Another point to consider is that at the present time , this is a relatively new technology . As EVs become more common on the roadways , some of the high prices associated with them will decrease . But right now , the Tesla Roadster ' s $ 10,000 battery is Electric Concept Cars Over the past several decades , a number of electric concept cars have been developed .

HowStuffWorks Auto Under the Hood Engines Engine Performance How does nitrous oxide help an engine perform better ? Up Next Y ou may have read our article about how sodium chlorate acts as a way to store oxygen . You release the oxygen in sodium chlorate by heating it . It turns out that nitro us oxide ( N20 ) works exactly the same way . When you heat nitrous oxide to about 570 degrees F ( ~ 300 C ) , it splits into oxygen and nitrogen . So the injection of nitrous oxide into an engine means that more oxygen is available during combustion . Because you have more oxygen , you can also inject more fuel , allowing the same engine to produce more power . Nitrous oxide is one of the simplest ways to provide a significant horsepower boost to any gasoline engine . Nitrous oxide has another effect that improves performance even more . When it vaporizes , nitrous oxide provides a significant cooling effect on the intake air . When you reduce the intake air temperature , you increase the air ' s density , and this provides even more oxygen inside the cylinder . The only problem with nitrous oxide is that it is fairly bulky , and the engine needs a lot of it . Like any gas , it takes up a fair amount of space even when compressed into a liquid . A 5 - liter engine running at 4,000 rotations per minute ( rpm ) consumes about 10,000 liters of air every minute ( compared to about 0.2 liters of gasoline ) , so it would take a tremendous amount of nitrous oxide to run a car continuously . Therefore , a car normally carries only a few minutes of nitrous oxide , and the driver uses it very selectively by pushing a button . For more car engine information , check out the links below .

HowStuffWorks Auto Under the Hood Diagnosing Car Problems Mechanical Auto Problems Top 10 Signs of Transmission Trouble by Akweli Parker Christopher Neiger Prev NEXT 9 Burning Smell Automatic transmission fluid should be bright red , clear and a little sweet - smelling . iStockphoto . com / Sergey Lemeshencko If you get a whiff of burning transmission fluid , be advised it is definitely not the sweet smell of success . That ' s because it may indicate your transmission is overheating . Transmission fluid not only keeps the transmission ' s many moving parts properly lubricated , but it prevents the unit from burning itself up , by providing much - needed cooling . In some vehicles , the transmission even has its own mini - radiator ( an oil cooler ) that circulates fluid to transport heat away from the transmission unit itself . Common causes include low or inadequate transmission fluid , which can in turn indicate a leak or dirty fluid that needs changing . If you thought your transmission was safe from wear at least while it was in neutral , the truth might surprise you . Look to the next page for the scoop on noises in neutral . NEXT

HowStuffWorks Auto Under the Hood Diagnosing Car Problems Mechanical Auto Problems What does the check engine light usually mean ? by Jessika Toothman Up Next Image Gallery : Car Safety An active check engine light can mean trouble . See more car safety pictures ยฉ iStockphoto . com / Trokantor It ' s a scenario that ' s befallen drivers everywhere : They turn on the car and start to fiddle with the radio and the air . They glance left and right over their shoulders while buckling up to check whether they ' re clear to back up . They put the car in gear , ease it down the driveway and go on their way . Then suddenly they glance down at the dash and notice with horror - - the check engine light is still on ! What does this mean ? Well , for starters probably a pretty annoying day . If your check engine light is illuminated , it ' s best to take it in for diagnostic testing , which can feel like a hassle . Because while the lights vary in appearance from vehicle to vehicle , all have the same basic meaning : There ' s a problem with the car ' s emissions system . The on - board diagnostics system and engine control unit are in charge of monitoring a bunch of different parameters , and if they get a reading that ' s a little out of whack , up pops the check engine light . The list of things that can trigger the check engine light is pretty lengthy . For example , anything from a loose gas cap to a faulty fuel injector can be to blame . Some other potential culprits that can cause that malevolent glow include : A wet engine A blown gasket head Faulty oxygen sensors Worn - out spark plugs or spark plug wires Loose or cracked hoses and manifolds Sticky exhaust gas recirculation valves Pinched or deteriorated fuel injector O - rings So first thing first : Check to make sure your gas cap is on and give it a few more clicks to tighten it up . If that does n ' t work , head to a mechanic or an auto parts store - - it ' s always a good idea to get a professional to diagnose the problem , and some will even perform this service for free . A few of the above items are inexpensive to fix . While others are more expensive , it ' s still important to get them taken care of . Whatever you do , do n ' t lazily slap a piece of black electrical tape over it and go about your business . Cars just need a little love from time to time to stay in good shape , and neglecting a minor issue could lead to bigger problems down the road .

HowStuffWorks Auto Under the Hood Car Trends & Innovations What does the computer in a car do ? Up Next All cars manufactured today contain at least one computer . It is in charge of monitoring engine emissions and adjusting the engine to keep emissions as low as possible . The computer receives information from a many different sensors , including : The oxygen sensor The air pressure sensor The air temperature sensor The engine temperature sensor The throttle position sensor The knock sensor The oxygen sensor Using the information from these sensors , the computer can control things like the fuel injectors , spark plugs and the idle speed to get the best performance possible from the engine while keeping emissions low . The computer can also sense when something has gone wrong and can inform the driver with the " Check Engine " light . A mechanic can read a diagnostic code from the computer and fix the problem . Depending on how expensive the car is , there can be all sorts of other computers . For example : There is probably a computer controlling the automatic transmission If the car has anti - lock brakes , there is a computer reading the wheel speed and controlling the brakes Many air bag systems have their own computers A car with keyless entry or a security system has a computer for these systems Advanced climate control systems often have computers Some cars now have motorized seats and mirrors that can remember the settings for multiple drivers , and these contain computers Any radio or CD player with a digital display contains a computer of its own Cruise control systems use computers In other words , a modern luxury car is a rolling computer network . It is amazing how many embedded controllers a car can have . So what was the deal about whether our cars would start on January 1 , 2000 ? Nothing . The computers in our cars have no idea what today ' s date is because it is irrelevant to their calculations . If you take the battery out of your car to replace it , all of the computers lose power . Your radio , for example , may forget its preset stations . However , you do n ' t have to reset the date on any of these embedded computers because none of them care .

Whether it is a Wrangler or a Cherokee or any another model from this brand ' s impressive line up you will find the same resilience , excellent maneuverability , and ease of handling in the vehicle . Given the rough terrain and hardy conditions where these vehicles tend to be used , auto glass damage may occur frequently . If your Jeep does have cracked or broken auto glass , There is usually a difference in prices for front and rear door glass with the rear being more expensive . Your four door utility Jeep ' s auto glass replacement costs for front passenger door is likely to be nearly as much as that for a recent model Infiniti . A Hyundai Santa Fe replacement of the same part will cost you about half as much . A rear door for the same Jeep vehicle will cost you slightly less than the same replacement in a GMC Acadia and slightly more than a Ford Escort . Although all of these are designed as rough terrain vehicles easily capable of carrying a family , there are differences in design that also reflect in the auto glass needs of each . Significant variations may be seen in the auto glass used with different models . For example , the 2011 Compass is a roomy vehicle with front and rear , quarter glass , a windshield , and a back glass requiring a total of 8 auto glass parts . The Grand Cherokee sports a very similar design but the quarter glass is much larger in this model . The knowledge of little tips and tricks that ensure perfect auto glass replacement often make all the difference to the longevity of your car ' s replacement glass . An experienced technician will know that allowing enough time for the urethane to set properly after auto glass installation will actually save you money . If you forcefully shut the newly replaced door or liftgate too soon , you could end up with water leaks . Similarly , unless the urethane adhesives are applied in the correct manner , the structural integrity is impaired . By entrusting your Jeep to a Jeep Auto Glass Parts Always choose only OEM or OEE parts and glass for your Jeep to get the best possible life from these components . Since your Jeep will be traversing rough terrain , the auto glass replacement that you use has to fit in perfectly with the contours of the vehicle . Otherwise , the glass could be weakened during a bumpy jerky ride over a rocky road . OEM glass is designed with the right curvature to fit perfectly into your Jeep so that it does not get jarred during a bumpy ride . That is why picking up genuine parts The History of Jeep Jeep is the oldest sports utility vehicle as well as the first off - road vehicle and a registered trademark of Chrysler . The Jeep was originally designed as a four - wheel drive reconnaissance car for the United States Army Quartermaster Corps by The American Bantam Car Company . Because the company was bankrupt at the time there was no engineering staff so Karl Probst was hired to design the car . He worked without salary initially to develop the vehicle as the Army wanted a working prototype within 49 days . Probst began working on the design July In just two days , Probst had plans completely laid out for the prototype and had the total estimated cost of the vehicle by the next day . The blueprints for the Jeep as well as Bantam ' s bid were submitted on July 22 .

Autoimmune Disease Research Center What is Autoimmunity ? About Contact Us FAQs Events Discussion Donate Questions about autoimmunity ? Email Dr . Caturegli What is Autoimmunity ? Definition of Autoimmunity Definition of Autoimmune Disease Broad Spectrum of Autoimmune Disease A Collective Approach Definition of autoimmune disease Autoimmunity is present in everyone to some extent . It is usually harmless and probably a universal phenomenon of vertebrate life . However , autoimmunity can be the cause of a broad spectrum of human illnesses , known as autoimmune diseases . This concept of autoimmunity as the cause of human illness is relatively new , and it was not accepted into the mainstream of medical thinking until the 1950s and 1960s . Autoimmune diseases are defined as diseases in which the progression from benign autoimmunity to pathogenic autoimmunity occurs . This progression is determined by both genetic influences and Direct evidence requires transmissibility of the characteristic lesions of the disease from human to human , or human to animal . In the real world , such evidence is attainable at this time only for diseases mediated by autoantibody , since we do not yet have the means for reliably studying T lymphocyte - mediated autoimmune diseases by transfer to animals . Examples of autoimmune diseases that fulfill the criteria of direct evidence are idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura ( in which deliberate human experimentation in the early 1950s showed that the platelet destruction is directly caused by an autoantibody ) Graves ' disease and myasthenia gravis ( in which there are temporary signs of disease in the infant due to transplacental transfer ) pemphigus vulgaris and bullous pemphigoid ( where the disease can be transmitted from humans to animals by autoantibody ) . Another , more feasible , way to demonstrate pathologic effect of autoantibody is to reproduce the functional defects characteristic of the disease in vitro ( in the laboratory ) . For example , inhibition of the fixation of vitamin B12 by intrinsic factor can be produced by autoantibodies from certain patients with pernicious anemia , and overproduction of thyroid hormones can be produced by autoantibodies from patients with Graves ' disease . Indirect evidence requires re - creation of the human disease in an animal model . The majority of autoimmune diseases fit in this category . For example , the autoimmune basis of is well accepted because of the availability of several genetically determined mouse models which , while not simulating lupus as seen in the clinic , do very closely replicate the serological features and some pathological features . Hashimoto ' s thyroiditis and multiple sclerosis can be reproduced by immunizing the animal with an antigen analogous to the putative autoantigen of the human disease . The development of animal models is increasing rapidly as methods of genetic and immunologic manipulation become commonplace . When direct and indirect evidence to define an autoimmune disease are not available , investigators are left with circumstantial evidence , that is , with listing " markers " descriptive of autoimmune disease . Examples of these markers are : positive family history for the same disease , or for other diseases known to be autoimmune presence in the same patient of other known autoimmune diseases presence of infiltrating mononuclear cells in the affected organ or tissue preferential usage of certain MHC class II allele high serum levels of IgG autoantibodies deposition of antigen - antibody complexes in the affected organ or tissue improvement of symptoms with the use of immunosuppressive drugs ( such as corticosteroids ) ยซ Back | Next ยป Our center is also affiliated with : Web site designed by Alberto Fenu and Patrizio Caturegli Questions about autoimmunity ?

http://autorepair.about.com/b/2009/02/08/is-idling-bad-for-your-car.htm
Arts , Music , and Recreation Cars & Motorcycles Is it Okay to Idle or Warm Up My Car ? by Matthew Wright Updated March 20 , 2017 To be honest , the question of whether it ' s good or bad to leave a car idling for an extended time has never crossed my mind . This letter from Deb made me think about it : As I read the comments about warming up your car , I keep looking to see if it is actually bad for your engine to leave your car idling too long . I ' ve been told that recently , and just wondered if it was true . Thanks for any help and advice you can give ! Deb So , is it bad ? I say no . An idling engine that is properly tuned is an efficient machine . If your engine is at operating temperature , your fuel injection is metering fuel correctly , and your exhaust pipe does n ' t have a banana in it , there ' s nothing to be harmed by letting it run . The Idling Myth So how did we end up with this longstanding myth that engine idling can be bad ? Myths come from all over , and some statements that I will clearly describe as myth others will swear are proven facts . But when it comes to engine idling , I ' m pretty firm in my beliefs . That said , I can certainly understand how and why people started to think that idling was bad . In fact , there probably are some cases in which you ' d be better off shutting the engine down than idling it . For example , let ' s say you drive a car that is so highly tuned for speed that it ' s practically a race car . When idling , these engines are running at their least efficient . Some will barely run at all ! They ' re not fully burning the fuel that is coming into the engine ( usually through a carburetor ) and as a result they can stand to build up all sorts of gunk in the engine , especially around the valves . I ' d imagine a ' 60s Ferrari falls into this While we ' re asking questions about engine idling , we have to ask why are you letting your car idle for a long time in the first place ? I can understand a little morning warm - up in hideous weather , but try to do this as rarely as you can stand . It ' s bad for the environment to pump all those extra hydrocarbons into the atmosphere and you ' re wasting precious , not to mention expensive , gas . I do n ' t think you ' ll do your engine any harm , but why do it ? Give nature a break and turn it off .

Arts , Music , and Recreation Cars & Motorcycles Reasons Why Your Car Is Overheating Noel Hendrickson / Getty Images An overheating engine is more than an inconvenience , it can be an expensive engine killer . It may even leave you on the side of the road then on to the repair shop for a serious repair bill . If your car has been running hot , you know the feeling . You ' re sitting in traffic , the light turns green , and you hope that traffic breaks fast enough for you to get some air flowing through the radiator so the temperature needle will go down . It ' s beyond stressful , and there ' s no reason you should be forced to endure this . The fact is , there are usually a few culprits to look into when your engine is running hot . Your Engine Overheats on Short Trips If your engine is overheating shortly after you leave , or it heats up even on short trips , you should check the following possible causes and repair suggestions . Symptom : Engine quickly overheats . Engine runs fine but gets very hot shortly after you start it . This problem usually occurs after only five minutes or after traveling about a mile . You may or may not notice steam coming from the hood or smell coolant . Possible causes : Engine coolant level may be very low . The Fix : Refill the coolant to the proper level . Engine ' s drive belts may be broken or slipping . The Fix : Tighten or replace the belts . The electric cooling fan may not be coming on . Repair or replace the cooling fan . Repair wiring . Replace the cooling fan temp sensor . The ignition timing may be set wrong . Adjust ignition timing . There may be a vacuum leak . Check and replace vacuum lines as required . The engine may have mechanical problems . Check compression to determine the engine ' s condition . The engine ' s thermostat may be stuck closed . Replace the thermostat . There may be a leak in the cooling system . Repair the leak and refill coolant . Cylinder head gasket ( s ) may be bad . Replace any bad gaskets . Your Engine Overheats After Extended Driving In some cases , your engine may be running fine and the overheating problem only occurs on extended drives or long waits in traffic . If this is the case with your car or truck , check on the following possible issues . Symptom : Engine overheats . Engine runs fine but gets very hot while driving . This problem usually occurs after moderate to extended periods of driving . You may or may not notice steam coming from the hood or smell coolant . Possible causes : Any of the above causes for overheating on short trips . The car is overloaded or being driven too hard . Lighten the load and back off the gas . The radiator or block may be clogged . Reverse flush the cooling system and fill with fresh coolant . Fixing the Most Common Overheating Problems Some of those possible overheating causes apply to both situations and these are among the easiest repairs you can tackle in your own garage . Low Coolant By a large margin , the most common cause for engine overheating is simply a low coolant level . Your engine ' s cooling system relies on coolant to circulate and remove heat from the engine . If you do n ' t have enough coolant in there to do the job , heat will build up and your engine will overheat . No amount of running the heater in the summer will help if you do n ' t have enough coolant in the radiator to transfer the heat . By far , the first thing you should do if your engine seems to be running hot is check your coolant level Electric Cooling Fan Failure If you have an electric cooling fan that is n ' t coming on , this can cause your engine to overheat . This fan draws cooler air through your radiator when your car is n ' t going fast enough to do the job naturally . You can test this by letting your car idle long enough for the engine to heat up . If you have an overheating problem in traffic , keep an eye on your temperature gauge . When it starts creeping into the danger zone , look under the hood to see if your electric fan is running . If it ' s not , you ' ll need to figure out why . Typically , it comes down to one of two problems . Bad Electric Fan : Sometimes your fan motor will just burn out and your fan wo n ' t come on at all . To test this , find your radiator fan switch and disconnect the wiring harness . Get a jumper wire and insert it into both contacts , your fan should come on . Another way to test the fan is to turn on the air conditioning . The cooling fan is activated in most โ€” but not all โ€” cars when you turn the AC to either a medium or high speed . Bad Radiator Fan Switch : There is a switch that tells your cooling fan to come on when your coolant reaches a certain temperature . The easiest way to test this switch is to disconnect the wiring harness and run a jumper wire across the harness contacts . If the fan comes on , you need to replace the switch . Thermostat Is Stuck Shut The most common symptom of a failed thermostat is overheating at highway speeds . Your engine may be able to stay cool at low speeds because it ' s not working that hard , and therefore not creating as much heat . When you hit highway speeds , however , your engine needs a lot of coolant flowing through to keep it cool . If the thermostat does n ' t open , there is n ' t enough flow to keep things cool . In this situation , you may find yourself looking more like a steamship than a sedan going down the highway . Broken Fan Belt There are still many engines out there that have a fan belt to drive the engine cooling fan . If you see a belt attached to your fan , you ' re in this club . The good news is your repair will be cheaper than electric - driven fans and you can easily replace the fan belt yourself if it ' s broken . Clogged Radiator If your car has more than 50,000 miles on it , your radiator may begin to get gummed up . You can avoid this and other problems associated with old coolant by flushing your radiator once a year . Regular Maintenance Can Keep Engines Cool There ' s nothing good about an overheating problem . If your engine is running hot you should try to fix the problem as quickly as possible . A hot engine can do damage to itself , even if it is n ' t fully overheating . Regular maintenance can help with this issue . Beyond flushing your radiator , check your oil regularly to be sure you are providing adequate lubrication to your engine . Keep up with other maintenance as well because anything you can do to reduce heat buildup helps . Remember , it ' s important to keep an eye on your engine temperature . Many people mention that their engines are " running hot , " though they do n ' t seem too concerned . Fixing a cooling problem is usually fairly inexpensive , even if it involves a trip to the repair shop . On the other hand , engine damage due to a neglected cooling system and regular overheating can be expensive . You may even lead you to think about getting rid of the car altogether .

Arts , Music , and Recreation Cars & Motorcycles Car Sounds : Grinding Brakes by Matthew Wright Updated October 01 , 2018 While some noises coming from your front disc brakes are no big deal , a grinding sound is usually bad news . At the very least , it signals a problem with the brake pads โ€” either the pads are too worn to smoothly stop the vehicle or the original brake pad was defective and is falling apart prematurely . Sometimes a grinding sound means that your pads are too far gone and a full replacement of the brakes themselves is in order . Noise From Below Your car ' s braking system is the most important safety feature on your vehicle , and it ' s worth learning a little bit about how it works . Depending on the age of your vehicle , you might have standard friction - type brakes that work by simply applying pressure to a pedal , or you might have more a sophisticated anti - locking system . Likewise , it helps to know if you have disc or drum brakes . Disc brakes are considered superior to drum brakes , and almost every car in the United States uses them on the front . But they are not immune to wear and tear . Early Warning Signs Every vehicle ' s brakes will emit a squeal and a whine when the pads get low . Brake pads are designed to get noisy when they are nearing their worn point , so even your basic , bare - bones model will give you this hint . Newer , advanced vehicles are equipped with sensors that measure how much brake pad is left and will actually alert you via a dashboard warning light if your pads need to be replaced soon . Those are the early warning signs . If your car is making a squealing sound when you apply the brakes , you should look into the matter quickly . Leaving disc brake repair until later can result in costly brake component replacement . There have even been cases of calipers needing to be replaced , and that will definitely up your repair costs . Always Inspect , Never Assume Front brakes usually need replacement far more often than rear brakes , so if you are hearing a grinding sound it ' s probably the front brakes . But never assume it ' s the simplest answer . Inspecting your brake pads will reveal the answer . Some things to look for include excessive brake dust , especially if it seems to be focused on one wheel . Metal shavings visible anywhere around the wheels are a serious indicator that your pads are beginning to eat into your brake discs , and this is a sure way to turn what Grinding is Bad News However , if your brakes are making a grinding sound when you come to a stop , you are at the very end of the life of your brake pads . At the very least you ' ll have to replace your brake pads , so be prepared to make this repair . A quick brake inspection will let you know whether you have damaged your brake discs . The good news is there are n ' t any other possibilities . Grinding , crunching , chewing metal sounds from your brakes always mean that you ' ve gone too long without replacing your pads . In some rare cases , a pad has failed and the friction surface leaves you all at once . Either way , the wheels are coming off and the brakes are coming out If your brakes reached the point of grinding , there ' s a lesson to be learned here . Maintenance that is deferred to this degree will almost never end well . Even if you do n ' t plan on keeping the vehicle much longer , you should keep up with regular maintenance like oil changes and brake pads . It can take very little time at all for an ignored maintenance issue to rear its head and turn into a serious money problem . Try selling a car that makes a grinding sound every time you touch the Continue Reading

Spectators can make the classic look their own by changing up the color combination or by wearing a stylish tie . Photo by COURTESY OF RALPH LAUREN Blue and khaki , the way to dress for Pebble Beach August 1 , 2010 Wondering what to wear to this year ' s Pebble Beach Concours d ' Elegance ? Just look to the field crew - - they lead by example . โ€œ We have an official uniform for the field crew , โ€ said Kandace Hawkinson , director of media relations . โ€œ We hope our spectators recognize [ that style of dress ] and mirror that in their own dress . โ€ Members of the field - operations team wear navy blue blazers , khaki slacks , comfortable shoes or loafers and a crisp , white shirt . Men wear ties and women wear scarves . And , depending on the role of the staffer , field crew members either wear a straw Panama Jack - style hat or a baseball cap . Ranging from dressy to casual , spectator attire should acknowledge the importance of the occasion . โ€œ Participants in the show have prepared for not just days or months , but years , โ€ Hawkinson said . โ€œ The day they ' re here is a special day . โ€ Spectators and participants should consider the venue when determining how to dress . Held on the 18th fairway of Pebble Beach Golf Links - - one of the longest - finishing holes in golf - - the concours requires comfortable clothing and shoes . For men , this translates into straw hats for sun protection . For women , heels might not be the most practical footwear , although it has been done . Hawkinson noted that for women ' s attire , โ€œ it ' s very much about the hat , โ€ rather than the shoes . Of course , some participants forgo the traditional look completely , instead preferring a more authentic look . โ€œ We do have owners who dress to match the era of their car , โ€ Hawkinson said . โ€œ That ' s always fun for people to see . โ€ By Izzi Bendall READ THIS NEXT My Account Media Kit Content Licensing RSS Feed Privacy Policy and Terms of Use AdChoices Contact Us Send Us Your Tips All Content ยฉ 2017 Crain Communications , Inc .

http://autoweek.com/article/car-news/first-volkswagen-beetle-america-looked
The first Volkswagen Beetle in America looked like this January 29 , 2014 On Jan . 17 , 1949 , the Holland America Line Westerdam pulled into New York Harbor from Rotterdam carrying the seed of an automotive empire . It had been only four years since Volkswagen resurrected operations in Wolfsburg , the factory heavily ruined by Allied forces and now under the command of Major Ivan Hirst . The Wolfsburg plant itself was nearly dismantled under war reparations until Hirst persuaded the British Army to use its product as light transport . Successfully bowled over , the British placed an order for 20,000 , the first of which went to occupying forces . 1,785 Type 1s were made that first year in 1945 . The Type 1 Beetle was a car that the British , in an official report , had deemed too ugly and noisy , " . . .quite unattractive to the average motorcar buyer . " Hell , the Brits had tried to unload Volkswagen to Ford - - for free . The response from a Mr . Ernest Breech , chairman of the Ford board , was : " I do n ' t think what we ' re being offered here is worth a damn ! " Oh , how they laugh now . Max Hoffman , importer of all Europe ' s glamour , was the first official Volkswagen dealer in America . He , of course , is both famous and infamous in the automotive business , and his thriving showroom on Park Avenue would become legend . But there remains another figure much less known who was instrumental in bringing Volkswagen to America : Ben Pon , a former race - car driver from the Netherlands who was the first man to bring Volkswagens out of Germany . On a wintry day in January 1949 , Pon actually beat Hoffman to the chase . The entire operation was nearly derailed from the start . Pon held a press conference on the Westerdam to a small group of assembled journalists , who , in their trademark snark and smarm , derided the goofy Beetle as " Hitler ' s car . " In a footnote all too familiar to us today , Pon called the VW the " Victory Wagon . " We did win , after all ! Pon peddled the car up and down the East Coast , hoping to strike a deal with any interested dealers . The Volkswagen was successful in his native Rotterdam ; why would n ' t it be here ? Three weeks later , he gave up . He hastily unloaded one Beetle , for exactly $ 800 , just to settle his bill at the Roosevelt Hotel . 1949 ended with exactly two Beetles sold . The next year , Hoffman showed up and became the official importer . He sold 157 Beetles Sixty - five years later , Volkswagen has announced plans to celebrate the car that , in essence , beat the odds . From 1949 to 1977 , precisely 21,529,464 Beetles rolled out of dealer showrooms around the world . And so has the company expanded with it - - from the humble Beetle , Volkswagen has become the monolithic empire we know it to be today - - 11 models of Volkswagen and 10 brands within Volkswagen Group , the second largest automotive empire in the world . " Since its arrival in the United States 65 years ago , the Volkswagen Beetle has preserved its reputation of being more than just a car but a symbol of uniqueness and freedom , " said Michael Horn , the newly appointed president and CEO of Volkswagen in America ( who has a big job ahead of him ) . " The Beetle has become part of the cultural fabric in America , and we are proud that its rich heritage continues to live with fans around the States . " A 1949 Volkswagen Beetle , looking forlorn in the corner . Photo by Volkswagen Rare photos of that first Beetle are shown above - - similar to this dark blue split - window , whose sales on both continents boomed under the efforts of former Opel manager Heinz Nordhoff . By 1955 , the same year Volkswagen established a base of operations in Englewood Cliffs , N.J. , the Wolfsburg plant had already churned out one million cars . ( " If Beetles drove in three rows , " proclaimed a German commercial in 1955 , " They would form an uninterrupted row from Prince Edward Island to Gibraltar . " ) Like the Citroรซn 2CV and the Fiat 500 , Volkswagen was smart enough never to underestimate the demand for cheap , affordable postwar transportation . As the fourth most influential car in history , the Beetle proved it . It ' s worth noting that on this anniversary of the Beetle , Volkswagen mourned a loss of its own . The last Type 2 Kombi bus ever made rolled into permanent storage in Germany , as the final chapter of Volkswagen ' s second influential car - - a story that lasted from the roots of the Beetle all the way to Brazil . Pon , again , makes a notable appearance here : In 1947 he sketched what would later become the Type 2 van , an act that would neatly make up for his initial failure selling the Beetle . By Blake Z .

Home Programs & Enrollment Financial Aid Salon & Spa Services Request Info About Locations Student Life Blog April 3 , 2013 How to Remove Glued Hair Extensions For those who want to change their looks dramatically , hair extensions offer the perfect combination of versatility and length . Although sew - ins are a very popular method of attaching extensions , glued hair is another approach that many people have been experimenting with . Instead of having to contend with sewn closures or the temporariness of clip - ins , glue - ins allow individuals to apply extensions on a strand - by - strand level . It is not surprising that people have been turning to this option more often as of late . Pros of Glued Hair Extensions Versatility : The hair can be curly , straight , or wavy . It can also be made from human hair or it can be synthetic . You can even choose between different lengths and colors until you have the combination you are looking for . Polished Final Look : When installation is complete , it is very difficult for people to tell if your hair has extensions in it or not . Long Lasting : Glue - ins can be worn for up to 4 months . This makes them ideal for those who like their hair to be low maintenance . Cons of Glued Hair Extensions Heat : This technique involves the application of hot glue through a glue applicator . Beyond the risks of getting burned during the installation , heat damage to your hair is another legitimate concern . Potential Hair Loss : Most hair extensions come with a certain amount of risk when it comes to hair loss and damage . Since the glued hair adds weight to the hair and stresses the scalp , breakage and loss is another factor that needs to be taken into account . Price : Although glue - ins can be very cost - effective , the costs of removal and maintenance can add up quickly over time . Removing Hair Extensions Whether you are saving money , getting ready for a new installation , or both , it is important that the hair is taken out as safely as possible . Here are a few ways to do that : Using Oil to Removed Glued Hair Extensions One way that you can get the glue bonds out of your hair is with oil . You can choose between almond , olive , or baby oil depending on what you can get your hands on . After letting the oil sit on the extension for at least 15 minutes , you should be able to comb the loosened bond out of your hair . If it does not work out , you can repeat the process for as many times as necessary . Using Dish Soap Although the specifics of this one will largely depend on the type of glue you are using , dish soap is another effective means of removing glue bonds from your hair . Start by taking the dish soap and rubbing it around the glue . To start seeing the results of this method , you will have to let the soap sit for an hour or two . After that has been dealt with , you can start removing the bonds . In order to deal with the remaining soap , just wash your hair out . Hair Conditioner Believe it or not , conditioner is a great multi - use hair product . In order to use it for glue bond removal , however , you have to start with wet hair . After this first rinse , you need to place a generous amount of conditioner onto your hair and then let it sit under a towel for about 20 minutes . From there , you simply rinse the conditioner out and gently comb the remaining glue out of your hair . If it does not come out the first time , then simply repeat the process Peanut Butter If you are planning to remove your glue bonds without using a bought removal cream , peanut butter is an excellent substitute . Much like with the three previous methods mentioned , you use peanut butter by first applying it to your glue adherents and then letting it sit for 15 - 30 minutes . Over time , the glue bonds should loosen and allow you pull them off without too much trouble . The key here is making sure that the peanut butter is given enough time to work . As you can see , although glue hair bonds come with their advantages , there are certain precautions that need to be taken with them . Fortunately , there are a number of ways that glue - in hair extension wearers can affordably remove their bonds .

The Federalist Papers : No . 47 Previous Document Contents Next Document The Particular Structure of the New Government and the Distribution of Power Among Its Different Parts From the New York Packet . Friday , February 1 , 1788 . MADISON To the People of the State of New York : HAVING reviewed the general form of the proposed government and the general mass of power allotted to it , I proceed to examine the particular structure of this government , and the distribution of this mass of power among its constituent parts . One of the principal objections inculcated by the more respectable adversaries to the Constitution , is its supposed violation of the political maxim , that the legislative , executive , and judiciary departments ought to be separate and distinct . In the structure of the federal government , no regard , it is said , seems to The accumulation of all powers , legislative , executive , and judiciary , in the same hands , whether of one , a few , or many , and whether hereditary , selfappointed , or elective , may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny . Were the federal Constitution , therefore , really chargeable with the accumulation of power , or with a mixture of powers , having a dangerous tendency to such an accumulation , no further arguments would be necessary to inspire a universal reprobation of the system . I persuade myself , however , that On the slightest view of the British Constitution , we must perceive that the legislative , executive , and judiciary departments are by no means totally separate and distinct from each other . The executive magistrate forms an integral part of the legislative authority . He alone has the prerogative of making treaties with foreign sovereigns , which , when made , have , under certain limitations , the force of legislative acts . All the members of the judiciary department are appointed by him , can be removed by him on the address of the two Houses of Parliament This , however , is not among the vices of that constitution . The magistrate in whom the whole executive power resides can not of himself make a law , though he can put a negative on every law ; nor administer justice in person , though he has the appointment of those who do administer it . The judges can exercise no executive prerogative , though they are shoots from the executive stock ; nor any legislative function , though they may be advised with by the legislative councils . The entire legislature can perform no judiciary act , If we look into the constitutions of the several States , we find that , notwithstanding the emphatical and , in some instances , the unqualified terms in which this axiom has been laid down , there is not a single instance in which the several departments of power have been kept absolutely separate and distinct . New Hampshire , whose constitution was the last formed , seems to have been fully aware of the impossibility and inexpediency of avoiding any mixture whatever of these departments , and has qualified the doctrine by declaring " that the legislative , executive As the appointment to offices , particularly executive offices , is in its nature an executive function , the compilers of the Constitution have , in this last point at least , violated the rule established by themselves . I pass over the constitutions of Rhode Island and Connecticut , because they were formed prior to the Revolution , and even before the principle under examination had become an object of political attention . The constitution of New York contains no declaration on this subject ; but appears very clearly to have been framed with an eye to the danger The constitution of New Jersey has blended the different powers of government more than any of the preceding . The governor , who is the executive magistrate , is appointed by the legislature ; is chancellor and ordinary , or surrogate of the State ; is a member of the Supreme Court of Appeals , and president , with a casting vote , of one of the legislative branches . The same legislative branch acts again as executive council of the governor , and with him constitutes the Court of Appeals . The members of the judiciary department are appointed Maryland has adopted the maxim in the most unqualified terms ; declaring that the legislative , executive , and judicial powers of government ought to be forever separate and distinct from each other . Her constitution , notwithstanding , makes the executive magistrate appointable by the legislative department ; and the members of the judiciary by the executive department . The language of Virginia is still more pointed on this subject . Her constitution declares , " that the legislative , executive , and judiciary departments shall be separate and distinct ; so that neither exercise the powers properly belonging The constitution of North Carolina , which declares " that the legislative , executive , and supreme judicial powers of government ought to be forever separate and distinct from each other , ' ' refers , at the same time , to the legislative department , the appointment not only of the executive chief , but all the principal officers within both that and the judiciary department . In South Carolina , the constitution makes the executive magistracy eligible by the legislative department . It gives to the latter , also , the appointment of the members of the judiciary PUBLIUS .

The Dangerous Effects of Ammonia in Hair Color By on April 16 , 2014 Non - Ammonia hair color is not a fad , it is not a passing trend that will be replaced by the โ€œ Next Big Thing . โ€ Most name brand / household names in the beauty business either have , or are in the process of developing a non - ammonia line .

Mold & Mildew โ€œ Why are mold , mildew and moisture in my home ? โ€ โ€œ How can these problems affect the sale of my home ? โ€ โ€œ Can installing a radon mitigation system possibly correct these issues ? โ€ These are some of the questions I โ€™ ve been asked by home owners during my 20 years of installing radon mitigation systems in Maryland . My answer surprises many people . I tell them that moisture in basements or crawlspaces can be greatly reduced with a properly installed radon system . This is something we in the radon industry have known about for years , and now there are studies to prove it ! An Environmental Protection Agency ( EPA ) study titled โ€˜ Exploratory Study of Basement Moisture during Operation of ASD Radon Control Systems โ€™ http : / / www . epa . gov / radon / pdfs / moisturestudy . pdf ) states in it โ€™ s abstract that : โ€œ ASD ( active soil depressurization ) operation can produce significant moisture reductions in the basement air and walls โ€ . Simply put , a radon system installed to remove deadly gas from a person โ€™ s home or business provides the added benefit of significantly lowering moisture levels that , in turn , reduce the presence of mold and mildew . The whole issue with mold or mildew is one thing โ€“ WATER ! The mold can not exist without the presence of WATER . This fact is crucial because when a home has a leak , whether it is from plumbing pipes , hot water tanks , or that pesky wall in the basement that gets damp when it rains , these leaks can lead to mold and mildew issues . Even if you have no visible leaks , a significant amount of moisture could be entering your home though the foundation walls and from under the basement slab . So where do we go from here ? The first step is to know your home . This point is the most important ! Like your body will show you signs when you are starting to get sick , most homes will show signs of mold or have that musty smell . AVANTY โ€™ S SUPER MONEY SAVING TIP ! If you are getting damp or wet basement walls most of the time the repair is simple and inexpensive to repair . Water proofing companies will tell you it will cost thousands of dollars to fix the problem and will tear up a large portion of your basement slab . The truth is if you walk around your home and really look , what is making the wall wet on the inside is usually bad gutters or downspouts , a sump ejector pipe pouring water back towards the home , or that the landscaping around the home does not slope So now you have checked for and corrected any obvious leaks in your home . If the basement is still damp and has an odor , this is where the Radon System comes in . A radon system creates a vacuum under the slab that pulls out the deadly gas and exhausts it outside the home where it can do no harm . In turn , the system also pulls out large quantities of moisture in the form of vapor and exhausts it outside of the home . It โ€™ s the same effect as a when a fan dries โ€œ But I have a dehumidifier in my basement to help remove excess moisture . โ€ EPA studies of a dehumidifier โ€™ s performance vs . an active radon system are incredible . On average , a dehumidifier can remove up to 3.5 gallons of water per day from the air in your basement . That water is either collected in a pan which you need to carry around and drain into a sink somewhere or you have a hose draining the water into the sump pit . The problem with the latter is that you are just recycling the same water through the air in your basement and never getting it out of the home and allowing the basement to dry . A radon system can remove as much as 19 gallons of water per day from the air in your basement and deposits it outside your house . From a cost analysis , a new , efficient dehumidifier will be about $ 15 per month to run ; older models can be significantly higher than that . A radon system costs around $ 7 per month to run . SUMMARY and CONCLUSIONS Radon systems for Maryland homeowners that are installed by a licensed , experienced contractor offer a multitude of benefits : - Breeches that allow radon gas into the home are sealed . - Dangerous radon gas is expelled from the home . - As an added benefit , excess moisture is also removed from the home . - Removing moisture in your home reduces mold and mildew , helps to eliminate the water source for bugs and rodents , and can save you money on your electric bills in the summer by reducing the humidity load on your A / C unit . Radon systems save lives and when you include the extra benefits of dehumidification and saving electricity ; it is a no brainer to have one installed in your home now . Homes today are usually tested for radon gas as well as for the presence of mold during the inspection process of a real estate transaction . If test results show high levels of radon gas in the home , or evidence of a mold problem , the Seller almost always pays to install the mitigation system and fix the mold issue . Why not reap the benefits of the There are testing kits for both radon and mold that can be found in your local home improvement store . The EPA web site has a ton of great info on all aspects of mold and even how to clean it up . It is also the source of some of the information you have just read . Remember , solving mold issues is as simple as taking away the moisture it needs to survive . This process can take a few steps to achieve , but the installation of a radon system is an integral part of the indoor

How does moving insurance work ? Can you please inform me how moving insurance works for full service moving companies ? Chris Noblit Sat , 03 / 12 / 2016 - 21 : 07 Permalink Thank you for your great โ€ฆ Thank you for your great question ! Let me start off by explaining that moving companies generally do not offer " insurance . " Rather , they offer tariff based loss / damage liability which moving companies call " valuation . " Although mover ' s " valuation " functions much the same as insurance it has many distinct differences and it is incorrect to refer to it as " insurance . " Here is an article about the difference between valuation and insurance which will help explain the differences to you . Now onto your question ! If you receive a moving cost estimate from a moving company and you ask " does this price include insurance " the mover will most likely say " yes . " However , you should ask " what type of insurance ? " because the mover has most likely included only the very basic tariff valuation of $ 0.60 per pound per article which - - if your shipment was to weigh 10,000 pounds ( which is a lot of stuff ! ) - - would provide you with $ 6,000 should your shipment suffer a catastrophic loss ( 10,000 Therefore , if your shipment experienced a total loss and you had selected the $ 0.60 per pound per article loss / damage valuation then you may be out up to $ 54,000 ( $ 54,000 being the $ 60,000 true replacement value less the $ 0.60 per pound valuation you selected ) . Such a loss would harm you greatly . You should be aware that most movers offer optional full replacement value loss / damage valuation which - - at our company ' s present rate structure - - would have the following costs for $ 60,000 of full replacement valuation . . . $ 560.00 ( with a $ 0.00 deductible ) $ 392.00 ( with a $ 250.00 deductible ) $ 322.00 ( with a $ 500.00 deductible ) It would certainly be wise of you to ask your mover " what kind of insurance is included in your price " and to inquire as to the additional cost of full replacement value coverage . At the very least , you should go into your relocation knowing exactly what you are covered for and what your potential loss might be if your shipment experiences a once in a million catastrophic loss . Further detail may be obtained by reading the article The ABC ' s of Moving Insurance . . .or by browsing all of our moving insurance ( valuation ) articles I hope this answered your question and please do n ' t hesitate to ask any other questions you may have !

Fire Nation Commanders Council of Elders Fire Lord Sozin Unknown Fire Nation Army commander Forces involved Airbenders Firebending soldiers Nonbending soldiers Casualties All except Avatar Aang Heavy Appearances First appearance The Avatar and the Fire Lord only appearance The Air Nomad Genocide was an enormous massacre committed by the Fire Nation that resulted in the near eradication of the Air Nomads and the fauna that lived in the air temples The only human survivor of the initial attack and its aftermath was Avatar Aang who was ironically the prime target The outrage over this cultural destruction compelled the Earth Kingdom and the Water Tribe to take up arms and declare war on the Fire Nation leading to the largescale war that continued for one hundred years Contents show History Prelude The Eastern Air Temple flourished before the genocide After Fire Lord Sozin left Avatar Roku to succumb to the toxic fumes he inhaled during the volcanic eruption on his island Sozin commenced to execute his plans to spread the Fire Nations state of peace and wealth to the rest of the world to bring forth a brighter future Sozin knew that Rokus successor would be reborn as an Air Nomad thus he planned an initial surprise attack against the Air Nomads The assault was timed to take place during the arrival of the Great Comet later dubbed Sozins Comet as it gave his firebenders an enormous power advantage Due to the threat of oncoming war the Council of Elders told Aang of his identity as the Avatar at the age of twelve when under normal circumstances the Avatar is told of his or her identity at the age of sixteen Despite this Gyatso believing Aang should have a normal childhood continued to engage him in fun and games This prompted a decision by Pasang and the rest of the Council of Elders to separate the two and send Aang to the Eastern Air Temple to complete his airbending training This conversation however was overheard by Aang who had been eavesdropping from a secret hiding place Unable to deal with the weight of his new status and the path the head monks had chosen for him he abandoned his home with Appa Caught in a storm shortly afterward Aang and Appa plunged into the ocean Deep underneath the surface the Avatar State was activated as a defense mechanism and utilizing both airbending and waterbending the Avatar Stateinduced Aang encased himself and Appa in a block of ice saving them both from the immediate threat of drowning and Sozins imminent assault against the Air Nomads Genocide Even though the Fire Nation eventually exterminated the Air Nomads their losses were heavy as well attested by the many corpses left in the air temples It is uncertain how the Fire Nations armies managed to reach the Air Nomad temples in the very highly elevated areas of mountain ranges as Aang stated that the only way to reach an air temple is with a flying bison Some temples such as the Eastern Air Temple appear to have suffered more damage than others unlike the still relatively intact Western Air Temple Despite being a pacifistic culture the Air Nomads fought back against their attackers with a fair amount of success as evidenced by the dozens of firebending corpses surrounding the skeleton of Monk Gyatso Ultimately however they were no match for the sheer numbers and firepower of their opponents A small number of Air Nomads escaped the initial attack on the temples and proved too elusive for the Fire Nation to hunt down Changing tactics Fire Lord Sozin removed relics from the temples and had a number of small residences high in the mountains furnished with them giving these places the appearance of being inhabited by other Air Nomad refugees Using spies to spread rumors about these safe houses throughout the Earth Kingdom population Sozin successfully lured the remaining airbenders into the hands of waiting Fire Nation soldiers and eliminated them Aftermath Immediate Aang was the sole survivor of the Air Nomad Genocide and its aftermath The only airbender known to have survived the genocide was the one that the Fire Nation sought to kill in its quest for world supremacy the Avatar Aang By running away from the temple ignorant of the imminent attacks against the Air Nomads he saved himself Aang however later felt guilty about fleeing and believed he could have defeated the invading Fire Nation forces and saved his people if he had stayed Sozin spent the last twenty years of his life looking for Aang who by that time had been frozen in a submerged iceberg for several years and eventually died at the age of 102 without ever finding him Sozins legacy to the world was a war that had begun with the Air Nomad Genocide and would last a hundred years General The Air Nomad Genocide was eventually followed by a propaganda campaign in the Fire Nation By 100 AG children were taught that Sozin battled the Air Nation Army completely omitting the fact that the Air Nomads were a peaceful people and did not have a formal army of their own Nevertheless this warped form of the history was generally considered correct by Fire Nation citizens The other nations meanwhile had lost most knowledge of the Air Nomads causing them as well as the flying bison to mostly be considered part of ancient myths and false legends Intellectuals and elders were those who generally knew most of the Air Nomads but even to them they were part of an ancient and virtually dead culture Gyatso s skeleton was found in the Southern Air Temple One hundred years after the genocide Katara and Sokka freed Aang and Appa from their frozen state Afterward Aang soon learned of the fate of the Air Nomads He revisited his former home the Southern Air Temple still hopeful that a few Air Nomads would have survived the attacks but he discovered countless Fire Nation corpses along with Gyatsos frail skeleton His absence during the genocide of his people would frequently plague him causing him many bouts of shame along with feelings of insurmountable grief However not all air temples were left alone and in ruins for one hundred years the Northern Air Temple was rediscovered by Earth Kingdom refugees around 90 AG Forced from their homes by a flood years before they stumbled upon the abandoned temple and made it their new home Their leader the mechanist strongly modified the temple with his inventions creating a safe haven for his people When Aang eventually arrived at the Northern temple during their journey the Avatar was angry at the new inhabitants for what he saw as vandalizing the home of his people However Aang relented after seeing Teo s airbender spirit and how the refugees defended their new home against the Fire Nation Aang stated that just like the hermit crab he saw earlier they had found a new shell to call home and allowed them to stay By 171 AG the air temples were restored to their former glory and maintained by the Air Acolytes who made them their home In order to preserve the Air Nomad culture Avatar Aang founded the Air Acolytes in 101 AG Part of an international group of monks and nuns they carry on the teachings culture and traditions of the Air Nomads through practice and have restored the air temples by 171 AG Though the airbender population is still crippled beyond sustainability the population has slowly begun rising with the birth of Aang and Kataras son Tenzin who in turn also has a family with three known airbenders Jinora Ikki and Meelo Following Harmonic Convergence in 171 AG airbending has resurfaced in a number of nonbending citizens across the world Appearances Avatar The Last Airbender Book Three Fire ็ซ 306 The Avatar and the Fire Lord flashback Trivia After the Air Nomad Genocide Aang found an island inhabited by a different species of flying bison and wingedlemurs These included ringtailed winged lemurs and sky bison with more stripes on their back The genocide was nearly completed by Sozins greatgranddaughter Azula when she killed Aang with a lightning strike during the Coup of Ba Sing Se The Air Nomad Genocide shares many similarities with the Great Jedi Purge from the Star Wars franchise In both a pacifist race is

from a fallen meteorite At the start of his training under Piandao Sokka hardly knew the proper way to hold a sword However he had a great natural talent and progressed quickly being able to beat the butler Fat after a single day Three days into his apprenticeship Sokka and Piandao began working on making his sword Sokka decided to make it out of a meteorite he and his friends had encountered earlier and spent days forging the sword After receiving this he blew his Fire Nation cover deliberately prompting Piandao to instigate a duel to the death albeit fake as a final test to make sure that Sokka had learned the necessary skills During this fight Sokka showed how much he had learned about the way of the sword in just a few days showing great resourcefulness and the ability to recognize and exploit every advantage Piandao eventually beat him but was greatly impressed by his progress and said that Sokka had the potential to one day be an even greater master than him Sokka left Piandaos tutelage to help Aang on his quest to save the world from Ozai and started putting his new skills to use shortly thereafter Sokka had no qualms about using his sword in untraditional ways such as to haul supplies on the end of it or poke people with the scabbard However he prized the sword very much second probably only to his boomerang his oldest weapon given to him by his father Hakoda He grew fearful when Toph used it as collateral in one of her scams without his permission The warrior later used the sword in combat during the invasion of the Fire Nation as well as in a friendly swordbending duel against Prince Zuko which he lost When Sozins Comet arrived Sokka along with Toph and Suki went to stop the Fire Nation airship fleet from burning the Earth Kingdom to the ground After commandeering and crashing one of the airships into the rest of the fleet Sokka and Toph were thrown off during their attempted escape but the former managed to halt their fall by burying his sword into the airships outer hull as a grapple hook Stranded and about to be attacked by firebenders Sokka sacrificed both his boomerang and his sword throwing them at the planks supporting their opponents This prevented their deaths just long enough for Suki to rescue them with the last airship but neither the sword nor the boomerang came back plummeting to the ground of the Wulong Forest Design Piandao agreed to forge a unique sword from meteorite ore Sokkas sword is a jian or straight sword The blades of such swords are approximately seventy centimeters long and four centimeters wide with the grip measuring about twenty centimeters long The black blade of the weapon originated with the swords composition of meteoric iron while the sheath is simple dark brown and straight adorned with a goldplate inlay about midway down its length The sheaths tip is rectangular and adorned with a stylized white lotus symbol made of gold filigree while another is etched into the end of the grip these marks identify the sword as the work of a member of the Order of the White Lotus Since the sword was made specifically for Sokka who also took part in its construction the sword is attuned to him suggesting an affinity between the two rather than any kind of mystical connection Finally the unusual material according to Piandao gives the sword unique properties namely its exceptional durability and keenness it is able to cut through thick layers of steel and other materials Real life connections Swords and other tools forged from meteorite iron have a long history both in the real world and in fiction It is believed that meteorite iron was the first iron ore used by humans before the development of mining to retrieve terrestrial iron King Tutankhamun was entombed with a meteoriteiron dagger on his breast and fragments from the Cape York meteorite were used by the Greenland Inuit people to fashion knife blades and harpoon heads In more contemporary times Japanese master swordsmith Yoshindo Yoshiwara made a katana called tentetsutou or Sword of Heaven the blade of which was forged from a fragment of the massive Gibeon iron meteorite that landed in Namibia in prehistoric times Trivia The concept art of Sokka s jian left and Master Piandao s blade right highlights several aspects of both swords Sokkas sword and sheath as well as Piandaos sword and sheath are designed based upon real swords owned by Sifu Kisu Kisu is the martial arts consultant for the shows creators and was also the character reference for Piandao Sokkas sword is made of the same material as Tophs bracelet Sokkas sword was seen cutting through over a foot of solid steel The concept of a sword being made out of a meteorite was derived from the ancient Mongolian legend of Timur A real life replica of Sokkas sword made from real meteorite was created by Tony Swatton of Man At Arms on the AWE Me YouTube channel References 10 11 12 13 Hedrick Tim writer Volpe Giancarlo director

Contents show Biography Rejoining the Avengers Black Widow watched on as the Avengers ' Quinjet flew towards Red Skull ' s location , she called someone that they just reunited as a team , and is ordered to pursue them in her own vehicle , wanting to see if they really needed her . Once Black Widow arrived at the destination , she assisted the Avengers in their effort to defeat Red Skull and his HYDRA army . After supposedly defeating Red Skull , Black Widow witnessed as Red Skull managed to steal Iron Man ' s armor and arc reactor for his own purposes . Black Widow and the approached Tony , just as he was losing consciousness . Black Widow accompanied the Avengers to Avengers Mansion to revive Tony . After Tony Stark was able to recover , Black Widow and the rest of the Avengers were distraught to learn that Tony had no further use for them . Black Widow left the room to talk to Hawkeye . Soon , the pair were infected by M.O.D.O.K . ' s mind - control nanobots and proceeded to fight each other . After Iron Man was able to rid the team of M.O.D.O.K. ' s nanobots , they had encountered the Red Skull and defeated him . Red Skull managed to detonate the mansion ' s reactor , leading the Avengers to scatter . Now without a home , Iron Man welcomed the team to the Avengers Tower . Black Widow and the team were called to action after the Great Wall of China came to life , and flew to their next destination in the Aven - Jet Prime After Falcon moved into Avengers Tower , bringing cookies with him that Hulk convinced him to share the entirety of them with him , Black Widow swiped one from him and Hulk attempted to grab it back from her , him being restrained by Thor while Black Widow taunted him by placing the cookie in front of his face and waving it back and forth . Black Widow was soon afterward possessed by a Space Phantom , which took over her body while sending her into limbo with the other Avengers that had been possessed . The Avengers were able to see themselves or Space Phantom versions attacking Falcon , also being able to interact with the Space Phantoms in limbo with them who were trying to escape through the portals . Black Widow quickly pointed out that Iron Man ' s repulsor blasts had no effect on the Space Phantoms , the name of the phantoms being coined by Captain America which drew criticism from Hawkeye , though Black Widow retorted that his choice of dubbing them " creepy , ugly , space dudes " was not any better . The Space Phantom Avengers were transported through the dimensional bridge and into the realm of limbo by Falcon , allowing the actual Avengers to combat them . Black Widow was assisted by Iron Man , who held her arms as she kicked the Space Phantoms . She fought them on foot , doing alright until being attacked from behind the Space Phantom version of herself . While she was being held by the Space Phantom , Black Widow mentioned to Iron Man that energy blasts worked on their doubles , convincing him to fire . The Avengers returned to their dimension after destroying the dimensional bridge , fighting over the cookies again shortly thereafter . Black Widow traced Red Skull to Transylvania , where she was captured and converted into a vampire by Dracula . After the conversion , she led a squad of vampires to Avengers Tower , initially attacking Hawkeye and Captain America until Hawkeye signaled the others and they were overpowered , leading the Avengers to discover what they were and learn Black Widow ' s true identity as one of their allies turned rouge . Dracula sent a message through her , Black Widow afterward fighting against the Avengers and gaining access to Mjolnir by using it as transportation after Thor hit Hulk with it unintentionally . After Thor retracted the hammer , Black Widow used her legs in order to knock down both Iron Man and Falcon , running out of the room as well and into a mirror , through which she could not see her mirror before bumping into it and being rendered unconscious . The Avengers tried to find a cure for her while still occupying the Avengers Tower , though Jarvis shut down and Iron Man agreed with Captain America to go to Transylvania . While the Avengers traveled there , Dracula retrieved her comatose body . Once she became conscious again , Black Widow lured Falcon away from Captain America and Hawkeye by insisting that she needed him to save her , Falcon going to find her by himself and eventually coming in contact with her . After revealing herself to still be a vampire , Black Widow knocked a bell next to him with her leg , harming Falcon and causing him to fall to the ground as she Black Widow then claimed that she was being restrained by the powers of Dracula and it was causing her to act this way , Hawkeye encouraging her to fight it before being knocked out by Dracula from behind . Black Widow stood as Captain America tried to negotiate with Dracula , calling for him to release her from his control . After the Avengers defeated Dracula , he swore while sinking int the ground with the other vampires that Black Widow , who was laying on the ground unconscious , was his . Hawkeye took her comatose body and she A meteor descended onto Earth , which Iron Man , Hulk , and Thor had difficulty in trying to stop , Black Widow witnessing the entire ordeal including it being destroyed seemingly by them . The three returned to the ground , where Black Widow pointed out Hyperion as he stood away from them after Iron Man denied being responsible for stopping it . The Avengers researched him and Hawkeye considered approaching him for membership with the group , though Black Widow interjected herself by asking them what made the group so sure he wanted to join the Avengers and asked if any of them had thought about what motivated him . Though Black Widow agreed with Captain America ' s assertion that there should always be an ideal , but questioned who would be the person to say " No " to the man with superhuman abilities Black Widow learned that Molecule Man had returned and confronted Hawkeye during his day off about his reappearance , Black Widow opposing his choice to tell Iron Man , stating outright that it would go no farther than them and they would bring him in . Though Hawkeye ignored her orders and began walking away from her as he expressed that Iron Man needed to know , Black Widow stopped him in his tracks by knocking him down with her grapple and explaining that she was worried Iron Man would use the technology for his own purposes should he be informed . Hawkeye said that Iron The two started searching , Black Widow explaining to Hawkeye that S.H.I.E.L.D. had acquired leads on where Molecule Man was when asked how the two would find him , also warning him that she had no qualms searching by herself if he could not take the mission plan seriously . The two soon afterward watched who they thought was Molecule Man as he walked a street below them , Black Widow knocking Hawkeye ' s arrows away from him before pointing out that he could be carrying dangerous cargo , the individual they assumed as Molecule Man overhearing her and A.I.M . agents moved in on the individual , Molecule Kid who revealed himself to the be the son of Molecule Man . Molecule Kid defended himself from the A.I.M. agents by converting the molecules of objects around him , which included converting the building that Black Widow and Hawkeye were standing on into slime . Black Widow managed to escape with the aid of Hawkeye , the two then watching over Molecule Kid as he became stuck in the slime . Though Hawkeye argued Iron Man would make better use of the powers the boy possessed with the wand , Black Widow stressed that Nick Fury did not want the wand in the hands of a single person , calling Iron Man " Mr . Impulsive . " One of the A.I.M. agents was able to get close to Molecule Kid with the use of a hovercraft , Black Widow following suit and like the agent before her was made to fall into the mud by Molecule Kid after he used the wand on her hovercraft . Hawkeye tried to assist Black Widow stopped piloting the vehicle and directed Hawkeye to take her place before firing a shot at Molecule Kid with her gauntlets . When this failed to have an effect on him , she directed Hawkeye to maneuver around being hit by a block that he had made to appear , but it was too late and the pair were struck , their vehicle landing into a large screen and Molecule Kid confronting them there , where Black Widow ordered him to hand over the wand , before turning the screen into sand . The two Avengers plummeted into After saving Hawkeye who thanked her , she said , " Pozgaluista , " explaining to Hawkeye that it was Russian for " You ' re welcome . " Black Widow and Hawkeye chased him down to again , Molecule Kid sending cars their way after uttering his belief that the pair would send him away like they did his father , leading Hawkeye to believe he was more scared than just being a mere crazed super villain and requested to Black Widow that the pair " mommy talk " him , Black Widow retorting that he did not say Captain America questioned Black Widow ' s loyalty to the Avengers , her arguing that he was the one traditionally by the books and brought up the possibility of a world where Iron Man did not have to obey the laws of physics , also pinning the blame for Molecule Kid not being caught yet on Hawkeye as he did on her until seeing the Super - Adaptoid as it chased after Molecule Kid . Black Widow fought against the Super - Adaptoid with Hawkeye while Captain America tried to talk Molecule Kid into handing over the wand , the end result of the conversation escalating into Molecule Kid trapping Captain America with a bent street light . Black Widow and Hawkeye argued over which one of the two would help Captain America until Falcon appeared with the orders for the two to hold off the Super - Adaptoid while he called Iron Man , to which Black Widow ordered him not to . Black Widow saved Hawkeye from being sliced by an attack from Super - Adaptoid , which they learned was under the control of M.O.D.O.K. and lost some of her hair as a result . While Falcon fought Super - Adaptoid with difficulty and questioned how he was to fight an opponent who was constantly Hawkeye interjected himself , arguing that Black Widow ' s approach was not good enough though she also claimed the same of his and their arguing drove Molecule Kid to use the wand and distort the city , Black Widow then confirming to Hawkeye that Molecule Kid was stronger than his father . Iron Man entered the fray and gained the wand after knocking Molecule Kid down with a small blast , noting that he could do much with the wand and causing Black Widow to try reasoning with him to give it up and claim that the group did Black Widow was hit by Super - Adaptoid when he moved in to take the wand from Molecule Kid and in succeeding in doing so , started to wreak havoc with it . As directed by Iron Man , she and Hawkeye went for the legs of Super - Adaptoid , allowing Iron Man to unsuccessfully try destroying the suit by shooting at the heart , also M.O.D.O.K. ' s face . Molecule Kid moved in by using his wand on the suit which had its molecules destabilized . Black Widow and Hawkeye tried convincing Molecule Kid to assist them Black Widow and Nick Fury went on a mission together after this , fleeing from the A.I.M. agents who wanted to retrieve the memory drive that Fury was holding while they ran . The two surrendered to the agents who demanded it back while Black Widow questioned Fury ' s motives , knowing that he was more than capable of taking them out and admitted that she only returned his calls when she thought there would be a fight before asking what he wanted .

Biology : Land Plants : Embryophyta : Part Three Land Plants : Embryophyta Embryophytes diverged from the charalean green algae ( Chlorophyta ) during the Ordovician period . The Charalean life cycle has an alternation between haploid and diploid generations ( respectively called gametophytes and sporophytes ) . The first embryophytes , however , had life cycles dominated by the gametophyte phase pf the plant . The sporophytes became small and dependent on the gametophyte for their entire brief life . Such plants are informally called ' bryophytes ' . They include three surviving groups : * Bryophyta ( mosses ) * Anthocerotophyta ( hornworts ) * Marchantiophyta ( liverworts ) All of the above ' bryophytes ' are relatively small and are usually confined to moist environments , relying on water to disperse their spores . Other plants , better adapted to terrestrial conditions , appeared during the Silurian period . During the Devonian period , they diversified and spread to many different land environments , becoming the vascular plants or Tracheophyta , These plants have vascular tissues or tracheids , which transport water throughout the plant , and an outer layer or cuticle that resists drying out . In most vascular plants , the sporophyte is the dominant individual Many vascular plants reproduce using spores . They include the following extant groups : Lycophyta ( clubmosses ) Sphenophyta ( horsetails ) Psilophyta ( whisk ferns ) Pteridophyta ( ferns ) Other groups , which first appeared towards the end of the Paleozoic era , reproduce using seeds . These groups are accordingly called spermatophytes ( seed plants ) . In these forms , the gametophyte is completely reduced to a few cells dependent on the sporophyte . The seed plant sporophyte begins life enclosed within the seed . Some seed plants may even survive in extremely arid conditions , unlike their more water - bound precursors . The seed plants include the following extant groups : Cycadophyta ( Cycads ) Ginkgophyta ( Ginkgo ) Pinophyta ( Conifers ) Gnetophyta ( Gnetae ) Magnoliophyta ( Flowering plants ) The first four groups are referred to as gymnosperms , since the embryonic sporophyte is not enclosed until after pollination . In contrast , among the flowering plants or angiosperms , the pollen has to grow a tube to penetrate the seed coat . Angiosperms were the last major group of plants to appear , developing from gymnosperms during the Jurassic period , and then spreading rapidly during the Cretaceous . They are the predominant group of plants in most terrestrial biomes today . Embryophyte cells remain similar to those of green algae . They are eukaryotic , with a cell wall composed of cellulose , and plastids surrounded by two membranes . These plastids usually are chloroplasts , the sites of photosynthesis . Embryophytes store food as starch . The presence of chlorophylls a and b giving this group a bright green color . They lack flagella and centrioles except in certain gametes . The Plant Life Cycle Plants have an alternation of generations : the diploid spore - producing plant ( sporophyte ) alternates with the haploid gamete - producing plant ( gametophyte ) . Animal life cycles have meiosis followed immediately by gametogenesis . Gametes are produced directly by meiosis . Male gametes are sperm . Female gametes are eggs or ova . Typical alternation of generations life cycle , such as occur in some protistans and plants . The plant life cycle has mitosis occurring in spores that were produced by meiosis . These spores germinate into the haploid gametophyte phase . Gametophyte size ranges from three cells ( in pollen ) to several million ( in a " lower plant " such as moss ) . Alternation of generations occurs in plants , where the sporophyte phase is succeeded by the gametophyte phase . The sporophyte phase produces spores by meiosis within a sporangium . The gametophyte phase produces gametes by mitosis within an antheridium ( producing sperm ) and / or archegonium ( producing eggs ) Plants have two further variations on their life cycles . Plants that produce bisexual gametophytes have those gametophytes germinate from isospores ( iso = same ) that are about all the same size . This state is referred to as homospory ( sometimes referred to as isospory ) . . Homosporous plants produce bisexual gametophytes . Ferns are a classic example of a homosporous plant . A typical homosporous life cycle . Note the production of a single type of bisexual gametophyte that will eventually produce the antheridia ( sperm bearing structures ) and archegonia ( egg bearing structures ) . Leanne : Need redrawn . Plants that produce separate male and female gametophytes have those gametophytes germinate from ( or within in the case of the more advanced plants ) spores of different sizes ( heterospores ; hetero = different ) . The male gametophyte produces sperm , and is associated with smaller or microspores . The female gametophyte is associated with the larger or megaspores . Botanists consider heterospory as a significant step toward the development of the seed . A generalized heterosporous life cycle is shown below . Typical heterosporous life cycle . Note the production of separate , unisexual male and female gametophytes . Now go on to the next part . ยฉ 2007 Aventa Learning . All rights reserved .

Natural Pregnancy 5 Safe Herbs for a More Comfortable Pregnancy and Better Birth 118 Comment October 2 , 2012 Favorite Print Page Like those of you who are pregnant , as a mom of 4 kids , I am no stranger to some of those miserable common symptoms that can plague pregnancy . For me it was awful first trimester nausea and then later , occasional insomnia . As a midwife and medical doctor I have been using herbs in my practice with pregnant women for over 25 years and have found them to be helpful in treating many of the symptoms we have during those nine months of growing our babies including nausea , insomnia , yeast infections , varicose veins , and hemorrhoids . They can even tone your uterus for labor . I want to introduce you to 5 of my favorite herbs known to be safe for use in pregnancy Are herbs safe during pregnancy ? Pregnant women commonly experience minor symptoms such as nausea , colds , and insomnia for which natural remedies can actually be gentler and safer than pharmaceuticals โ€“ many of which lack proof of safety in pregnancy or are known to be harmful . While there is limited scientific research on the safe use of most herbs in pregnancy , there is good evidence of safety for several . Overall , most herbs that are traditionally used to support pregnancy are safe for use in moderation . There have been almost no reports of adverse outcomes in pregnant women , and when they have occurred , it has been from using herbs that are not considered safe in pregnancy , or from products that have been tainted with unsafe herbs or even pharmaceutical additives โ€“ which has mostly been a problem with imported products from China and India . Using herbs during pregnancy The safest approach is to avoid using herbs during the first trimester of pregnancy unless necessary ( for example , ginger for treating morning sickness ) , to only use those herbs known to be safe in pregnancy , and to consult with an experienced midwife , herbalist , or MD on the safe use of herbs in pregnancy . There are many herbs whose use in pregnancy is definitely not safe for baby . A basic list of these can be found in the Mothering article . Beverage teas that are known to be safe in moderate amounts ( e.g. , red raspberry , spearmint , chamomile , lemon balm , nettles , rose hips ) , and ingestion of normal amounts of cooking spices are considered safe in pregnancy . Herbs considered safe in pregnancy These 5 herbs are known to be safe during pregnancy and can help with a variety of common discomforts and problems while helping prepare your body for a healthy birth . 1 . Ginger ( Zingiber officinalis ) for morning sickness I think I โ€™ d rather go through natural labor without an epidural faster than I โ€™ d repeat those horrible weeks of morning sickness I experienced ! I remember getting home from a particularly eventful car ride through the mountains during the early part of one of my pregnancies , laying flat on the living room floor , and telling my husband to just let me die now . I am sure I was green . Ginger is a spicy , aromatic herb with which many of you are familiar for cooking . Did you know it has been shown to be safe and effective in treating morning sickness ? There are several ways to use ginger in pregnancy . Tea and capsules are commonly recommended in books and other sources , but my experience is that drinking warm or even cool tea when you are already sick to your stomach is not fun , and may even make you hurl ! Ditto on capsules sitting in your stomach and the water or juice you need to take to chase them . Try these ginger products instead : Ginger candies and crystalized ginger : Reed โ€™ s makes great ginger products . I learned to keep a small stash of ginger candies or pieces of crystalized ginger in my handbag at all times . It โ€™ s not 100 % fool proof โ€” sometimes that nausea can outsmart even ginger โ€” but it really can cut the edge and ease your tummy . It can be nibbled in small amounts throughout the day ; large quantities are not needed and in fact , up to 1 gm of what would be equal to the dried powder is the Ginger Ale : while drinking soda is not ideal in pregnancy , treating nausea trumps and ginger ale is a great way to get in some ginger . The carbonation also helps many pregnant women with nausea symptoms . You can make your own ginger ale by grating 1 tablespoon of fresh ginger root and squeezing the juice into some carbonated water ( plain or lemon flavored ) , adding some honey , cane sugar , or maple syrup to sweeten it , or you can get a good quality ginger ale with real ginger . Reed โ€™ s makes Note : persistent or repeated vomiting in pregnancy can be a medical problem . Consult your midwife or doctor if you experience anything beyond typical morning sickness symptoms . 2 . Red raspberry leaf ( Rubus idaeus ) for an easier labor This herb is a mineral rich tonic , traditionally used to support a healthy pregnancy and tone the uterus to help a woman prepare for birth . Some studies have shown that it can help to expedite labor and reduce complications and interventions associated with birth . Glass Teapot with Herbal Tea on white wooden surface Since it does n โ€™ t have the most pleasant taste when taken as a tea by itself , I generally recommend mixing it with some spearmint and rose hips for a delicious tea that can be taken daily , 1 - 2 cups throughout the second and third trimesters . The recommended dose is from 1.5 โ€“ 5 gm daily in tea . Pregnancy Tea : 2 tbsp red raspberry leaf + 2 tsp spearmint leaf + 2 tsp rose hips Mix together and place into a reusable tea bag . Steep in 8 oz of boiling water for 20 minutes , strain and drink 1 - 2 cups daily . 3 . Echinacea ( Echinacea spp . ) for colds Pregnant women get colds just like everyone else , and because natural hormonal changes in pregnancy already make your nose feel stuffy and a big belly can make it feel harder to breathe , colds and coughs can be extra miserable . Echinacea has been shown to reduce the length of colds and also prevent them from recurring . It can be used either during a cold or to prevent them . It does not actually help with cold symptoms , but our friend ginger does ! Ginger can reduce chills , coughing , and aching muscles when taken as a hot tea using 1 tablespoon of fresh grated ginger per cup of boiling water , 1 - 3 cups daily . Echinacea is best used in the form of a tincture , which does contain a small amount of alcohol , but this tiny amount is not considered dangerous when taken in the recommended dose of up to 5 mL of the tincture ( about 1 measured teaspoon ) up to twice daily . Capsules can also be used according to recommended package dosing for individual products , if you are uncomfortable with using a product containing alcohol during pregnancy . 4 . Cranberry ( Vaccinium Macrocarpon ) for UTI prevention Urinary tract infections ( UTIs ) are very common during pregnancy . Medically they are treated with antibiotics the first time , and if a second infection occurs , the medical recommendation is to place pregnant women on antibiotics for the entire pregnancy to prevent further infections . While cranberry should not be used to substitute for appropriate medical care , it has been shown in numerous studies to prevent UTIs . If you have a history of them , or have had one already during pregnancy , talk with your midwife or doctor about trying cranberry for prevention . While antibiotics are sometimes necessary , newer research is showing that exposure to antibiotics during pregnancy can have long - term consequences on our babies , including development of asthma and inflammatory bowel disease . Cranberry can be used in the form of cranberry juice ( even Ocean Spray has been shown to work , but I recommend less sugary types from the natural foods store or fresh juice made at home in a juicer using ยฝ cup of fresh frozen cranberries and 2 apples ) or cranberry capsules dosed as recommended on the product . Note : Untreated UTIs in pregnancy can cause serious problems ; if you suspect you have one , consult your midwife or doctor . 5 . Chamomile ( Matricaria recutita ) for better sleep Pregnancy is often a time of disturbed sleep whether from vivid dreams , new concerns over becoming a mom , or the discomfort of your growing belly making it hard to find just the right position . One of my favorite herbs for gently and safely promoting relaxation and sleep is chamomile . It is soothing for your tummy and tastes delicious , too . Chamomile can be taken up to several cupfuls daily if you are stressed , and taken before bed for sleep . I generally recommend 1 - 2 cups in the evening , but do not drink tea within an hour of going to sleep or you โ€™ ll surely be up to pee ( though this happens in pregnancy anyway ! ) . To make chamomile tea steep 1 large or 2 small tea bags in 8 oz of boiling water for up to 10 minutes , or better yet , purchase organic chamomile blossoms from a company like Mountain Rose Herbs online and brew yourself a small teapot full using 1 tablespoon of the herb per 8 oz of water . Summary Herbs can provide substantial relief for common complaints and concerns that arise during pregnancy and childbirth . Nonetheless , like any medicines , they should be used with caution . Many herbs that have not been evaluated may nonetheless offer simple , safe , gentle , and effective solutions for common problems of pregnancy , ranging from anemia to yeast infections .

Proven by canon source , and moved to main page . Speculative and lacking any evidence to support arguments . Responding to another theory ( use discussion page instead ) . This does not include responses that are also standalone theories . Usage of an indented bullet does not imply the statement is a response . According to the prophecy recounted by Melisandre , after a long summer , Azor Ahai will be reborn amidst smoke and salt wielding the flaming sword Lightbringer to defend the world from R ' hllor ' s nemesis , the Other . While Melisandre is certain Stannis Baratheon is Azor Ahai , others are not so sure . It seems very possible Dragonstone is the place Azor Ahai will be reborn as it is a volcanic island , thus providing both smoke from the mountain and salt from the sea . Contents hide 1 Azor Ahai reborn 2 Stannis Baratheon 3 Daenerys Targaryen 4 Jon Snow 5 Victarion Greyjoy 6 Aegon Targaryen 7 Rhaegar Targaryen 8 References Azor Ahai reborn According to the prophecy , as recounted by Melisandre , these are the indicators of the coming of Azor Ahai : After a long summer , when the stars bleed and the cold breath of darkness falls heavy on the world citation needed Variant : When the red star bleeds and the darkness gathers citation needed He shall be born again amidst smoke and salt He shall wake dragons out of stone He shall draw from the fire a burning sword , Lightbringer If Azor Ahai is the same as the prince that was promised He is born of the line of Aerys II and Rhaella , according to the woods witch His is the song of ice and fire , according to Rhaegar Targaryen According to Maester Aemon , the word used to describe the prince in the prophecy was a gender - neutral word . While all assumed that the prince must be male , Aemon recently came to believe the prophecy could point to a female as well . According to Benerro Azor Ahai was born amidst smoke and salt Azor Ahai will make the world anew Azor Ahai will triumph over darkness will bring a summer that will never end Death itself will bend its knee , and all those who die fighting in Azor Ahai ' s cause shall be reborn According to Melisandre , Stannis is Azor Ahai reborn . Stannis wields a magic sword that was forged by plunging a blade through a burning statue of the Maiden at the sept at Dragonstone . This ceremony is meant to be his ' rebirth ' as Azor Ahai . The burning statues of the Seven provide the smoke and the waves on the shores of Dragonstone provide the salt . Stannis was named the Lord of Dragonstone after Robert ' s Rebellion , Dragonstone being a place of smoke and salt . Stannis ' paternal grandmother was Rhaelle Targaryen , meaning that he has the Blood of the Dragon , which may or may not be a prerequisite . However , Stannis was n ' t born from the line of Mad Aerys and Rhaella . Maester Aemon also remarks that Stannis ' s sword , while shining brilliantly thanks to Melisandre ' s magic , gives off no heat and so could not possibly be Lightbringer . Daenerys Targaryen After Samwell Tarly tells Maester Aemon of the rumors about and her dragons , Aemon becomes certain that Daenerys is the prophesied leader . . He says to Sam : No one ever looked for a girl . .It was a prince that was promised , not a princess . Rhaegar I thought โ€ฆ the smoke was from the fire that devoured Summerhall on the day of his birth , the salt from the tears shed for those who died . He shared my belief when he was young , but later he became persuaded that it was his own son who fulfilled the prophecy , for a comet had been seen above King โ€™ s Landing on the night Aegon was conceived , and was certain the bleeding star had to be a comet . What fools we were , who thought ourselves so wise ! The error crept in from the translation . Dragons are neither male nor female , Barth saw the truth of that , but now one and now the other , as changeable as flame . The language misled us all for a thousand years . Daenerys is the one , born amidst salt and smoke . The dragons prove it . He subsequently bids Sam relate all their findings to the maesters in Oldtown and convince them to send a maester to Daenerys . The prophecy was originally made using the Valyrian word for " dragons " , who are neither male or female , meaning Azor Ahai reborn may not necessarily be a man . Daenerys was born on Dragonstone , an island in the narrow sea ( " amidst salt " ) , and reborn as the Mother of Dragons on Khal Drogo ' s burning funeral pyre ( " amidst smoke " ) . On that pyre her three petrified dragon eggs hatched ( " born amidst salt and smoke to wake dragons from stone " ) , and on that morning for the first time the Red Comet appeared in the sky ( " When the stars bleed . . . " ) . An additional prophecy from a woods witch prophesied that the Prince That Was Promised would be born from the line of Prince Aerys and Princess Rhaella . Daenerys is the daughter of Aerys and Rhaella . Benerro of Volantis proclaims that is Azor Ahai returned . Jon Snow Jon ' s wounds smoke while Bowen Marsh cries , providing the prophecised salt , and Ser Patrek ' s bloody , star laden heraldry is in the air above . When looks into her fires for Azor Ahai , she sees only things to do with Jon or snow , which he thinks must just be ash but she sees a possible connection to Jon . has a dream where he fights the Others with a red sword burning in his hand . If having the blood of the dragon is a prerequisite , if Jon ' s father is truly Rhaegar , Jon would satisfy that prerequisite . He would be the grandson of Aerys and Rhaella and thus come from their line . Jon chose his duty to the Night ' s Watch over his love for Ygritte . He indirectly caused her death by warning Castle Black of the incoming wildling raid . Similar to Azor Ahai sacrificing Nissa Nissa to complete Lightbringer . In the TV show adaptation , who ' s showrunners ' know from GRRM himself who Azor Ahai is , revealed in the tenth episode of Season 6 that Lyanna Stark is Jon ' s mother , and that Jon was born under a bleeding star . Edard Stark enters the Tower of Joy with a bloodied Dawn , the ancestral sword of House Dayne which was forged from a fallen star , therefore ensuring that in accordance with the prophecy Jon or Azor Ahai was born when stars bleed . Victarion Greyjoy While traveling to capture Daenerys , ' s likely mortal sword wound is healed by Moqorro , a red priest of R ' hllor . Afterward , his arm resembles roast pig and visibly smokes . The ritual was performed at sea , which provides the salt . Victarion ' s arm smokes afterward , which provides the smoke . Victarion was saved from death , which could be considered a form of rebirth . Moqorro says he sees a great future for Victarion in the service to R ' hllor . Victarion previously beat his wife to death , which is a possible Nissa Nissa connection . Aegon Targaryen Before his death , Rhaegar Targaryen believed his son to be the Prince that was Promised Aegon was born on , an island in the narrow sea ( " amidst salt " ) . The Dragonmont on Dragonstone is a smoking vulcano ( " admidst smoke " ) . On the night of his conception , a red comet was seen above King ' s Landing . A prophecy from a prophesied that the Prince That Was Promised would be born from the line of Aerys II Targaryen and Rhaella Targaryen . Aegon is their grandson . In his youth , and Maester thought Rhaegar was the Prince that was Promised , as Rhaegar was born during the Tragedy at Summerhall , amidst the smoke of the burning castle , with the salt coming from the tears shed for those who had died . A prophecy from a would be born from the line of Aerys II Targaryen Rhaella Targaryen . Rhaegar was their eldest child , and , until 276 AC , their only child .

Castamere Castamere The westerlands and the location of Castamere . is a ruined castle located south of the Crag and west of Ashemark in the northwestern westerlands also nearby is Tarbeck Hall The former seat of House Reyne , Castamere contains gold and silver mines . Contents hide 1 Layout 2 History 3 Recent Events 3.1 A Clash of Kings 3.2 A Storm of Swords 4 Quotes 5 References Layout Named after a nearby pool of blue water , Castamere began as a mine like Casterly Rock . After building curtain walls to guard the entrance with two stout towers , the Reynes constructed keeps and halls . As the gold and silver dried up , the mine below was widened and converted into halls , galleries , bedchambers , and a vast underground ballroom . While the surface fortifications resembled those of a minor lord or landed knight , nine - tenths of the castle was subterranean . History The drowning of Lord Roger Reyne , by Fuderiki The rich veins of gold and silver allowed House Reyne to become nearly as wealthy as House Lannister of Casterly Rock during the Age of Heroes Rhaena Targaryen and her dragon , Dreamfyre , briefly stayed at Castamere with the Reynes in 51 AC King Jaehaerys I Targaryen visited the castle in 55 AC Kevan Lannister , the second son of Lord Tytos Lannister , served as first page and then squire to Robert Reyne Lord of Castamere . Following the War of the Ninepenny Kings , tensions rose between the Reynes and Lannisters during the rule of Tytos . Castamere was where the opposing sides met to exchange hostages . Peace was short lived , however . During the ensuing Reyne - Tarbeck rebellion , the Reynes retreated to Castamere after the destruction of Tarbeck Hall . With Roger wounded and many of their men killed in battle , the Red Lion ' s brother , Ser Reynard , abandoned the surface castle for the safety of the mine ' s oak - and - iron gate . Tytos ' s heir , Ser Tywin Lannister , ignored Reynard ' s offers and had his miners bury Castamere ' s entrances beneath stone . The Lannisters then dammed the pool ' s stream and diverted it into a mine entrance , flooding the underground chambers of Castamere and drowning those trapped inside . Tywin also had the surface buildings put to the torch . The fate of the Reynes and Castamere is remembered in the song " The Rains of Castamere " . Recent Events A Clash of Kings During the War of the Five Kings , the gold mines of Castamere are seized by Lord Jon Umber after the Battle of Oxcross A Storm of Swords For their part in the downfall of House Stark during the War of the Five Kings House Spicer receives Castamere and Ser Rolph Spicer is named Lord of Castamere Quotes Tyrion : The Crag is not so far from and Castamere . You ' d think the Westerlings might have ridden past and seen the lesson there . Tyrion : Mayhaps they have . They are well aware of Castamere , I promise you .

Daario is one of the captains of the Stormcrows who attend the parley with Daenerys . She offers the captains gold and plunder if the Stormcrows come over to her side , but is rebuffed by Prendahl na Ghezn , one of the other captains . The Stormcrows are a company of freedmen , and therefore the question of breaking the contract with Yunkai would have to be put to each man .

Purple eyes Aerion Targaryen , the Lord of Dragonstone ยฉ Scherma Daenerys Targaryen ' s violet eyes - by Bella Bergolts ยฉ FFG Aegor Rivers was only half Targaryen , so he had purple eyes , but his hair was black . ยฉ Marc Simonetti Ashara Dayne had haunting violet eyes , by Bella Bergolts Purple eyes of different shades are exhibited by some characters in the world of George R . R . Martin โ€™ s A Song of Ice and Fire The most well - known shade of purple eyes is violet . Two other shades are lilac and indigo . It is a rare and beautiful eye color , but is relatively common in the Targaryen family , who are descended from the dragonlords of the ancient Valyrian Freehold . In Westeros , few but the " blood of the dragon " have purple eyes . The blood of old Valyria is often manifested by eyes in shades of purple , and hair of silver - gold or platinum white . This coloring was typical among Valyrians , and is often held up as proof that Valyrians are not entirely of the same blood as other men .

Their practice of incest was kept in part to preserve their rare coloring . The famed Targaryen eye color can be revealing when a member of the family is trying to be incognito . Aegon V Targaryen , while serving as a squire to Duncan the Tall under the name " Egg " , shaved his head so that his silver - gold hair would not be recognized . But his deep purple eyes could not be disguised , though in dim light they looked black . Daemon II Blackfyre , incognito as the hedge knight " John the Fiddler " , wore blue clothing to help make his purple eyes look blue . Prince Rhaegar Targaryen ' s eyes were dark indigo , his brother Viserys ' s eyes were pale lilac , and their sister Daenerys ' s eyes are violet . Note that not all Targaryens have purple eyes : Queen Alysanne Targaryen ' s eyes were clear blue , and Prince Valarr Targaryen ' s eyes were also blue . Children of Targaryen / non - Targaryen marriages may also have eyes of a non - Valyrian color ; for example , the brown - eyed Prince Baelor , whose mother was a Martell But despite their mixed parentage , many Targaryen bastards may still have purple eyes , including Aegor Rivers ( though his hair was black ) and some dragonseeds House Blackfyre was founded by Daemon Blackfyre , the legitimized bastard son of King Aegon IV Targaryen . Among the traits passed on to the Blackfyres by the Targaryens were the platinum blond hair and purple eyes . House Velaryon of Driftmark is an ancient and proud house , with the blood of old Valyria in its veins . Velaryons , like the Targaryens , often have the Valyrian features of silver hair and purple eyes . House Dayne The trait for violet eyes runs in , even though it is an unusual eye colour for non - Valyrians in Ashara Dayne in particular was famous for her haunting violet eyes . Note that GRRM has stated that the Dayne purple eye color is not related to Targaryen ancestry . The Free Cities Where the blood of the old Valyrian Freehold runs strong , purple eyes and silver hair can still be found . In Lys , even the smallfolk and prostitutes often have the pale skin , silver - gold hair , and the purple , lilac , and pale blue eyes of the dragonlords Some Lyseni with purple eyes include Larra Rogare and Lysono Maar Animals The Forest of Qohor contains a species of lemur with silver fur and purple eyes .

It is a long - dead city of wonderment , and was once the capital of a great empire called the Valyrian Freehold . It was destroyed by a cataclysmic event known as the Doom of Valyria a century before Aegon ' s Landing . It is the ancestral home of House Targaryen House Celtigar , and House Velaryon Contents hide 1 Location 2 Architecture 3 Culture 4 History 5 Recent Events 5.1 A Feast for Crows 6 Quotes 7 See also 8 References Valyria was located on a peninsula of the same name extending into the Summer Sea The shattered the peninsula , separating the city of Valyria from the Lands of the Long Summer by the Smoking Sea . The city of Valyria lies at the center of the largest surviving island , surrounded by cliffs where the island has broken away from the mainland . Valyria was connected by dragon roads to surrounding cities , such as Tyria Architecture Valyria is said to have had topless towers and used sphinxes as decorations . Culture A common racial characteristic among Valyrians appears to have been purple eyes and hair of silver - gold or platinum white . Valyria is said to still hold many treasures from before the Doom , such as Valyrian steel blades and items of magical power . It is said that the glass candles of Oldtown were brought there from Valyria a thousand years before the Doom . History Valyria was ruled by its dragonlords , led by two score rival houses that contested for power . House Targaryen , however , was not considered a powerful house . At times the lords freeholder elected archons for temporary leadership . The Valyrians were more than dragonlords . They practised blood magic and other dark arts , delving deep into the earth for secrets and twisting the flesh of beasts and men to fashion monstrous and unnatural chimeras . It is believed that for these sins the gods in their wroth struck Valyria down . The Valyrians ' empire , the , first conquered the Old Empire of Ghis to the east across Slaver ' s Bay , as well as the Ghiscari colonies in the Basilisk Isles and Sothoryos . Seeking slaves for Valyrian mines , they then conquered and established colonies to the west and north after defeating the Andals and the Rhoynar in Essos . Four hundred years ago , however , Valyria and its peninsula were shattered by the Doom The dragonlord Aurion declared himself Emperor of Valyria , but he and his host disappeared while trying to reclaim the city . In 55AC , Princess Aerea Targaryen claimed Balerion as her mount , and disappeared for more than a year , before reappearing in King ' s Landing in 56AC . Benifer and Barth found her to be infested with " horrors " which burned her from the inside out and killed her , erupting from her body as " worms with faces " , " snakes with hands " and other monstrosities . Balerion was also found to bear wounds and scars seemingly received during their absence . These observations led Barth to the conclusion that Balerion , uncontrollable by an inexperienced rider such as Aerea , flew her to his original home of Valyria , where he was born before the Doom and the flight of the Targaryens ; these " horrors Some years ago Gerion Lannister journeyed to Valyria to try to recover Brightroar , the lost Valyrian steel sword of House Lannister , and any other treasures that might have survived the Doom . He did not return and was presumed lost at sea . At some point the tigers , a political party in Volantis , sent a fleet to reclaim Valyria but the ships vanished in the Recent Events A Feast for Crows Euron Greyjoy claims to have visited Valyria and recovered the dragon horn Dragonbinder but Lord Rodrik Harlaw is skeptical of Euron ' s boasting . Quotes Petyr : Is there a man in your service that you trust utterly and completely ? Eddard : Yes . Petyr : In that case , I have a delightful palace in Valyria that I would dearly love to sell you . The wiser answer was no , my lord , but be that as it may . Petyr Baelish Eddard Stark Euron : I am the storm , my lord . The first storm , and the last . I have taken the Silence on longer voyages than this , and ones far more hazardous .

Westeros Westeros location on the map of the known world A map of Westeros with the internal borders Westeros is one of the four known continents in the known world , the others being Essos Sothoryos , and Ulthos . Most of the area of Westeros is covered by a political entity known as the Seven Kingdoms , while the far north beyond the Wall includes the free folk . The closest foreign nations to Westeros are the Free Cities , a collection of independent city - states across the narrow sea in western Essos . To the south of Westeros lie the Summer Isles Contents hide 1 Geography 1.1 Beyond the Wall 1.2 The North 1.3 The Iron Islands 1.4 The Riverlands 1.5 The Vale of Arryn 1.6 The Westerlands 1.7 The Crownlands 1.8 The Reach 1.9 The Stormlands 1.10 Dorne 2 Climate 2.1 Known seasons 3 Biology and Anthropology 3.1 Sentient species 3.2 Animals 4 History 5 References Geography See also : Seven Kingdoms Topographic Map by Tear ยฉ The continent of Westeros is long and relatively narrow , extending from Dorne in the south to the lands beyond the Wall . In the far north are the frozen Lands of Always Winter , where a large amount of land remains uncharted due to the extremely cold temperatures . According to semi - canon sources , Westeros is similar in size to South America Although no scale appears on the maps in the books themselves , George R . R . Martin has stated that the Wall is a hundred leagues long , or three hundred miles . Thus the continent stretches for about 3,000 miles from north to south and for some 900 miles at its widest point east to west . Westeros ' s eastern coast borders on the narrow sea ; across those waters lies the eastern continent of and the island chain known as the Stepstones . To the south is located the Summer Sea , and within it the Summer Isles The northern lands of Westeros are less densely populated than the south despite their roughly equivalent size . The five major cities of Westeros are , in order of size : King ' s Landing Oldtown Lannisport Gulltown , and White Harbor Westeros was divided into several independent kingdoms before the start of Aegon ' s Conquest . After this war and the eventual incorporation of Dorne , all the regions south of the Wall were united under the rule of House Targaryen into a nation known as the , which consists of nine provinces . Beyond the Wall Main article : The northernmost region of Westeros , the lands beyond the Wall stretch north to the lands past the edge of the known map , known as the Land of Always Winter . For the most part it is covered by the haunted forest and comprised of many lakes and rivers , and it shelters strange beasts among the mountains of the Frostfangs . The far north presents an extremely harsh climate , allowing only small numbers of free folk in small villages , in those primarily wild and uncharted lands . George R . R . Martin has stated that the lands beyond the Wall make up a large part of Westeros , being roughly as large as Canada The North Main article : North The north is the largest region , nearly as large as the rest of the regions combined . It is sparsely populated , with vast wilderness , forests , pine - covered hills and snowcapped mountains , although it also is home to one of the five Westerosi cities , White Harbor . The northern climate is cold and harsh in the winter , and occasionally it snows even in the summer . Its northern border is the Gift , the lands of the Night ' s Watch . Its southern frontier lies along the Neck , a marshy isthmus separating it from the southron kingdoms . The narrowness of the region and the difficulty of the terrain make it a natural border for the north , protecting it from invasion . It has been ruled by House Stark from Winterfell , first as Kings in the North and later as Wardens of the North , for thousands of years . It is colder and much less populated than the south part of Westeros . Most of its residents still follow the old gods , but some , mainly around the area of White Harbor , have taken the Faith of the Seven . Bastards in the north are given the surname Snow . The Iron Islands Iron Islands The Iron Islands are a group of islands lying off the western coast of Westeros in Ironman ' s Bay , the largest being Blacktyde Great Wyk Harlaw , the Lonely Light Old Wyk Orkmont Pyke Saltcliffe . The soil is infertile , but there are mines of several types , including iron and lead . The inhabitants of the harsh archipelago are known as ironmen in the rest of Westeros , and the ironborn among themselves . The Iron Islands are ruled by House Greyjoy of Pyke , chosen to rule the ironmen after House Hoare of Harrenhal was extinguished during the Conquest . Prior to the arrival of Aegon the Conqueror , the ironmen ruled over the riverlands and , thousands of years ago , over much of the western coast of Westeros . The ironmen are men of the sea , and their naval supremacy was once unmatched . The Faith of the Seven of the Andals find small favor with the ironborn , as their allegiance is given to their native Drowned God . Bastards in the Iron Islands are given the surname Pyke . The Riverlands Riverlands The riverlands , located south of the Neck , are the fertile areas between the Red Green Blue Forks of the Trident , as well as the Gods Eye and much of the Blackwater Rush . They are the domain of the Tullys Riverrun . At the time of the Conquest , the riverlands were ruled by House Hoare , the Kings of the Isles and the Rivers . The Tullys were never river kings , but were rebel river lords who left Harren the Black in favor of Aegon the Conqueror . Although the riverlands lack a city , they have many large towns , such as Maidenpool and Fairmarket . People of this region are often called " rivermen " . Bastards in the riverlands are given the surname Rivers . The Vale of Arryn Vale of Arryn The Vale lies to the east of the riverlands , surrounded almost completely by the Mountains of the Moon . It consists of vast mountain ranges with the people living in valleys between them , such as the Vale proper , and along the coast . The Vale ' s territory also includes the city of Gulltown Fingers , and numerous islands in the Bite and along the narrow sea The Vale is under the rule of House Arryn , one of the oldest lines of Andal nobility who once were Kings of Mountain and Vale . Their seat , the Eyrie , is a castle high in the mountains , small but unassailable . Due to the Vale ' s harsh winters , travel is only possible through the mountains during certain seasons . Rebellious mountain clans make travel even more dangerous . The people of the Vale are known as Valemen and those of the Three Sisters as Sistermen . Bastards born in the Vale are given the surname Stone . The Westerlands Westerlands The westerlands are the lands to the west of the riverlands and north of the Reach . It is a smaller region , but is home to some of the richest gold and silver mines on the continent . The westerlands are ruled by House Lannister Casterly Rock , formerly the Kings of the Rock . People of this region are often called " westermen " . Lannisport , lying near Casterly Rock , is the chief settlement of the region and one of the great ports and cities of Westeros . Bastards in the westerlands are given the surname Hill . The Crownlands Crownlands The crownlands are lands ruled directly by the Lord of the Seven Kingdoms . These lands include King ' s Landing and the surrounding areas , including Duskendale and Rosby . Going north , one finds Crackclaw Point and several islands in the narrow sea and Blackwater Bay , including Dragonstone Driftmark Claw Isle . The crownlands are south of the Vale , southeast of the riverlands , and northeast of the Reach , and north of the stormlands . Bastards in the crownlands are given the surname Waters . The Reach Reach The Reach is the largest region except for the north ; it encompasses a region of the most fertile part of Westeros and numerous well - populated villages and towns . The Reach is ruled by House Tyrell from Highgarden . The Tyrells were stewards to House Gardener Kings of the Reach before Aegon ' s Conquest . After Mern IX Gardener was killed on the Field of Fire , the Tyrells surrendered Highgarden to Aegon and were rewarded with both the castle and the position of Lord Paramount of the Mander . Bannermen of the Tyrells frequently fight with the Dornishmen of the south . The most prominent city in the Reach is Oldtown . It is the oldest city in Westeros , home to the maesters Citadel , and the Starry Sept , the previous seat of the Faith . Bastards in the Reach are given the surname Flowers . The Stormlands Stormlands The stormlands , located south of , stretch down to the Sea of Dorne and are bordered by Shipbreaker Bay in the east and the Reach in the west . It is one of the smaller regions of Westeros , a land of harsh mountains , stony shores , and verdant forests . Before Aegon ' s Conquest they were ruled by the Storm Kings , and afterwards by the Baratheons ; their founder , Orys Baratheon , was rumored to be a bastard relative of the Targaryens . The Dornish Marches are mostly located within the stormlands , having been ruled by the Storm Kings since time immemorial , and are ruled by marcher lords . The marches were common battlegrounds between the stormlands , the Reach , and Dorne until the last century , when Dorne joined the Seven Kingdoms . Bastards in the stormlands are given the surname Storm . Dorne is the southernmost region of Westeros . It stretches from the southern Red Mountains near the Dornish Marches to the southern coast of the continent . It is the hottest kingdom in Westeros and features the only desert on the continent . Dornishmen have a reputation for hot - bloodedness as well . They differ both culturally and ethnically from other Westerosi due to the historical migration of the Rhoynar on ten thousand ships . Their food , appearance , and architecture resemble those of Mediterranean cultures such as Greece and Turkey more than the Western European feel of the other kingdoms . They have adopted many Rhoynish customs as well , including equal primogeniture . Dorne was the only kingdom in Westeros to successfully resist Aegon ' s Conquest . It joined the Seven Kingdoms through marriage over a century after the First Dornish War . This accomplishment has allowed Dorne to retain a small measure of independence . The ruling Martells still style themselves " prince " and " princess " in the Rhoynish fashion rather than " lord " . Bastards in Dorne are given the surname Sand . Climate Ironborn raiders in wintertime . Art by artist Tomasz Jedruszek ยฉ Fantasy Flight Games Westeros ' s climate shifts from arid and dry desert climate in the furthest south to cold and harsh winters in the north and icy wasteland in the Lands of Always Winter in the farthest north . Westeros and both experience extremely long seasons of varying length , usually lasting at least a couple of years each . The maesters try to predict the length of the seasons , monitoring the temperature and days length , to advise on when to plant and when to harvest and how much food to store . However , given the random nature of the seasons , this is not something that can be relied on . At the beginning of A Game of Thrones Westeros has enjoyed an unusually long decade - long summer of peace and plenty and many fear that an equally long and harsh winter will follow . The end of the long summer comes at the outset of A Feast for Crows , with the arrival of the white ravens from the Citadel . The official announcement of winter comes at the end of A Dance with Dragons Days are longest in summer , shorter in other seasons , and shorter in the far north .

On the last day of 281 AC , it began to snow in King ' s Landing , continuing for the best part of a fortnight , causing the Blackwater to freeze . 284 AC By the time of Princess Daenerys Targaryen ' s birth in 284 AC , summer had begun . 288 AC 299 AC The longest summer in living history , which lasted 10 years , 2 months and 16 days . 299 AC 300 AC 300 AC - Present By the time the white raven from the Citadel arrives , it is snowing in King ' s Landing . Biology and Anthropology Sentient species Humans - appear to be mostly equivalent to humans on Earth , although some noticeable differences exist . There is a propensity for families in noble houses to share a common trait ; for example , the Lannisters appear to have all been blondes for hundreds of years . Some physical features are unusual in our world : Targaryens often have platinum hair and violet eyes , while descendants of the Ghiscari often have both red and black hair . Also , humans in Westeros are often larger than would be expected in a medieval civilization : many men are over six feet tall , with abnormally large men standing seven feet or taller . The three major ethnic groups from which modern Westerosi descend are Andals First Men Rhoynar Giants - huge , shaggy humanoids of slightly below human intelligence , vaguely resembling bipedal apes . Giants are a dwindling species found only in the lands to the extreme north , . They ride mammoths into battle , wielding crude clubs that are little more than logs . They speak the Old Tongue of the First Men . Children of the forest - the original inhabitants of Westeros are frequently mentioned , but have not been seen in thousands of years . They are thought to be diminutive humanoid creatures ; dark and beautiful , with mysterious powers over dreams and nature . They are said to have used obsidian weapons and weirwood bows in battle . Little of their legacy exists at present beyond their worship of nameless nature gods still practiced by some in the north , and the remaining weirwoods . Others - a mysterious and apparently malevolent race of creatures found beyond the Wall . They have only been seen at night , and seem to bring unnatural cold with them . They appear as tall , gaunt humanoids with eyes of blue so deep it burns like fire . They wear armor that shifts in color with every step , and wield thin crystal swords that are so cold they can shatter iron . Others move silently , but their voices sound like cracking ice . Creatures they kill reanimate as wights , undead with glowing blue eyes . The Others exhibit a weakness to weapons made of dragonglass , which pierce their armor easily . In death , they seem to melt into a pool of extremely cold liquid . Animals Bestiary Some species of animals inhabiting the planet are very similar to Pleistocene megafauna of Earth or even historical animals . Aurochs - large relatives of the bull . They are frequently used as a symbol of size , strength , and stupidity . An aurochs was used as a mount by the mythical Clarence Crabb as a display of his prowess . Direwolves - relatives of the wolf , but more like their extinct real - world equivalent they are much larger and stronger than regular wolves , reaching the size of a pony when fully grown . They are almost never seen south of the Wall . Lizard - lions - massive , swamp - dwelling reptiles found in the Neck , these creatures are most likely large crocodilians . Mammoths - inhabitants of the far north and apparently the only pachyderm in Westeros . They are used as mounts by Giants . Other animals appear to be altered versions of contemporary animals or have no real - world equivalent . Krakens - huge squids said to be able to pull down whaling ships . They are largely considered a myth . Manticores - small creatures that look like scarabs when folded up . Their faces are malign and vaguely human . They have a poisonous sting that is fatal to humans . Manticores are probably from across the narrow sea Ravens - physically similar to common ravens of Earth , ravens in Westeros are used to carry messages between castles . The maester of each castle usually tends to its stock of ravens . Maesters raise a breed of large , white ravens at the that are said to be more intelligent . Ravens sometimes imitate human speech like parrots . Shadowcats - large predatory cats with black fur and white stripes who seem to be native to mountainous regions . Their pelts are prized . Zorses - black and white - striped horses , most likely similar to zebras , brought over and used as mounts by some foreigners in Westeros . Dragons - ferocious , magical creatures , dragons are not native to Westeros , but were brought to the continent by the Targaryens . They died out over one hundred years ago , and are thought to be extinct by the people of Westeros . Unicorns - large goatlike animals , with a long single horn on its head .

Curved Railing Pictures and Building Instructions Curved Deck Railings Hawaii rails There are many straight handrails and guardrails offered by numerous companies but what if your home has a curved deck or curved balcony ? Well , we have a solution to this problem : beautifully designed curved handrails . When building a curved deck or a curved balcony following any kind of arc , the difficulty of the construction is increased dramatically . Curved handrails can be equally challenging to build , and there is no better masterwork than a curved deck railing from Mountain Laurel Handrails . This particular deck has two different curves which were faithfully replicated in our workshop . And on this page , you โ€™ re going to get a peek at how we create a curved railing system that is shipped ready to install ! Awesome Railing Curved Balcony Railing Curved handrails do n โ€™ t only have a place outside on your deck or balcony . For the interior of the home , a curved balcony railing makes a strong visual statement . It โ€™ s unique and not often seen in homes these days . The curved shape itself is unique , but to add the beautiful and creative wood design of Mountain Laurel Handrails takes your design to an entirely new level . These small aspects of interior design are often overlooked in the cookie - cutter approach to home design and home building , but this Curved Balcony Handrail The curved balcony handrail , in this case , has opened up space . Even a small feature can add a great amount to the look and feel of the space , as well as giving it a subtle but dramatic update . This great room benefited from curved handrail made with cintricate twig work on the balcony , and the loft becomes a special place to look through the glass doors that open onto the deck and the lake beyond . This curved balcony really created another new way for the owners of this home to enjoy the space Handrail for Balcony Balcony Wood Railing The Wood Railing crew took a ride down to Atlanta recently to install a small project with some curved railings on a balcony . This is a beautifully rebuilt home on the lake with quite a bit of history . The current owner โ€™ s father built a house on the property in the 1950s which had been outgrown and was in need of improvement . The contractor building the new home was just beginning his career as a carpenter and helped build the old house . Curved Balcony Handrail Here โ€™ s what the homeowner had to say : People are oohing and ahhing over your handiwork . Thanks so much for sharing your skills with our family . My family is lucky enough to own this new lakehouse . All of the sub - contractors and craftsmen have incorporated their artistic skills and creativeness into what has turned out to be a most unique dwelling place . We adore our new house . The building process with our fantastic , โ€œ attention to every little detail โ€ contractor , Dewane Pugh , has been a delightful experience . โ€” Missie These curved railings match the graceful arc of the balcony in this home . There โ€™ s plenty of woodwork with timber rafters and tongue and groove paneling . The home also incorporates wood from the old home , with one room done completely in wormy chestnut paneling from the previous house . There โ€™ s also an incredible , real masonry fireplace which are increasingly rare due to the demand for those select few masons with the required education , knowledge and skills . The view from below captures the arc of the balcony nicely . This simple radius helps to break up the straight lines of the timber and paneling , as do the Mountain Laurel Handrails . Additionally , the branches add visual excitement with their organic shapes . Curved Balcony Railing Handrail for Balcony How to Build Curved Railings In this section , we will take an in - depth look at the steps in how to make a curved handrail . Make a Curved Railing Building Plan We make curved railing systems that are easy to install . Like any good building project , it starts with a set of plans . The plans are made in a CAD program and are used for setting up both the bending jig and the building jig . Curved Wood Railing Plans Soak the Lumber The cedar 1 ร— 4 lumber has to soak in a pool for a minimum of 48 full hours , preferably over the weekend . This is a temporary soaking pool made with a 2 ร— 4 framework and a piece of black plastic . Heating attempts proved futile . Soaking Pool for Lumber Steam the Lumber People have asked how to curve wood , and the answer is simple : First , steam the boards and then bend them on a jig . This is how we built a steam chamber to curve wood . A steamer was constructed from a piece of 4 โ€ณ PVC with a wallpaper steamer attached to a hole cut into the pipe . The hole is sealed with spray foam . For a gentle curve , it takes one tank , and strong curves take two . Steamer for Curved Lumber The temperature in the steam chamber . The lumber gets pretty hot also . As the lumber cools , I โ€™ ve observed the lumber temperature drop below ambient temperature . I guess this is some kind of runaway reaction as the moisture evaporates into the atmosphere . Scientists , please leave comments explaining this phenomenon . Temperature in Steamer Build a Curved Wood Railing Bending Jig This is the first jig for the bending . It did n โ€™ t work . The two jigs are too close together , and the spring clamps are garbage . Only bar clamps work . Jig Bend Railing System First Jigs for Curve Railing Final Jigs for Curved Railings This is the current system minus the spring clamps . They โ€™ re useless . Even for one arc , two jigs are set up for production . Bend the Lumber This is a board that has been bent for a curved wood handrail system . Curved Board for Railing System Broken Board from Bending This is a board that has been broken . Breaking the boards by bending is not really predictable , not even by the knot locations , although they do break on the knots . We have not yet used any lumber except for the red cedar 1 ร— 4 s4s1e pictured here . Perhaps clear cedar would bend nicer ? ? ? Building the Curved Handrail This is the building jig for the curved wood handrail . Lumber sits on the bending jig for 24 hours then goes to storage where it is still under pressure , usually from stacked concrete blocks and pieces of lumber . The building jigs go on the table , and the sticks help the railings hold their shape . Curved Porch Railing Construction Started Construction on this section of curved wood railing has begun . From here , it โ€™ s just putting on sticks according to the 4 โ€ณ sphere rule . Curved Railing Construction Started Admire Your Curved Railing System : ) This is an overhead picture of a section for a curved deck railing system that will be shipped directly to the job site . These sections are easy to install by cutting the ends of the lumber to fit the posts . With these instructions , it should be easy to know how to make a curved deck railing . Section of Curved Deck Railings This is a long angle view of a single section of curved deck handrail . Each section is custom built to actual measurements and carefully packaged for shipment . Curved Railing System In this picture , curved wood railing sections are collected prior to careful packaging for shipment nationwide . Curved Railing Sections The lumber to complete the outside of the top and bottom of the sections is provided . The picture below shows two different arcs that have been bent for a curved deck . The top 2x that caps the railing is not provided and must be installed on site . Lumber for Curved Railing System The finished results of installing Mountain Laurel Handrail โ€™ s curved railing systems are clear as these pictures speak to their beauty .

It is a good stimulant and counter - irritant for joint and muscle pain โ€ , says Light Miller and Bryan Miller in their book Ayurveda and Aromatherapy . Botanically known as Cinnamomum camphora , Camphor is a member of the Lauraceae plant family and is extracted from the wood and bark of this evergreen tree . Prevalently called as Karpura in Ayurveda , this sacred and aromatic herb is used in Ayurvedic healing for more than thousands of years in the treatment of bronchitis , insomnia , asthma , hysteria , whooping cough , epilepsy , dysmennorhea , sinus headaches , nasal and pulmonary congestion , delirium and gout . No sacred or religious ritual in India gets fulfilled without Camphor and is also known in Ayurveda with other names like Chandra , Himavaluka , Ghanasara and Chandra Prabha . Purchase Camphor Essential Oil โ€“ Retail โ€“ 4 oz โ€“ CLICK HERE Purchase Camphor Essential Oil โ€“ Wholesale โ€“ CLICK HERE Historical uses and importance of Camphor and its essential oil : Popularly called as โ€˜ the tree that does not sleep โ€™ , Camphor has been an important natural remedy especially in the Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ayurveda for more than 4,000 years in the treatment of various illnesses including nervous afflictions and other psychosomatic problems . Indigenous to Formosa , Japan and China , this tree can grow up to a maximum height of 100 feet and the traditional Chinese used Camphor for its remedial uses and its wood was used in building temples and ships mainly due to its exuberant aroma and robustness . During the Tang dynasty ( C.E. 618 - 907 ) , Camphor was used in flavoring confectionery items like ice cream in China . Camphor is an important part of Indian prayers , especially the religious ceremonies of the Hindu community since the traditional times . Burning camphor in the Pooja plate for deities is a part of every prayer in temples as well as homes and this sacred flame is calmly touched and its warmth feeling is passed on to the eyes . It is a part of the biggest spiritual celebration of the Hindus known as Mahashivratri dedicated to Lord Shiva The ancient Egyptians , Babylonians , Greeks and Romans used Camphor as a fragrant wood , incense resin , flavoring agent and as fumigants for embalming . It was given as prestigious gifts by the Chinese emperors for other kingdoms including the Arabian treaties . Camphor was also used as a traditional remedy for plague in Iran and Persia . The strong aroma of Camphor makes it an excellent agent for protecting against snakes and other poisonous reptiles . It was also used as an insect repellant as it is trusted to be toxic to insects . Camphor was also used in tool chests to guard tools against rusting . Chemical constituents or Gas Chromatography Report ( GC ) of Camphor oil The Gas chromatography report witnesses Camphor oil with about 15 chemical constituents that contribute to its unique aroma , therapeutic values and consistency of this oil . Among which , 1 , 8 - Cineole is the key component with about 35.9 % of Camphor oil . Just click on : I believe that this information would certainly help you in having a clear picture about the primary chemical constituents of Camphor oil . The table crafted below explains the unique nature and therapeutic qualities of these biochemical constituents to the curative values of Camphor essential oil . Therapeutic properties of Camphor essential oil : The remedial properties of this oil are stimulant , expectorant , antiseptic , anti - rheumatic , antispasmodic , decongestant , nervine , anti - phlogistic , analgesic , anti - arthritic and bronchodilator . Ayurvedic health benefits of Camphor essential oil : Ayurveda is a holistic healing science known to the world for more than 5,000 years . The most prominent thing about Ayurveda is that its healing practices are recorded systematically in the form of literature . Among the 4 major sacred books of the Indian Mythology , Atharvana Veda records the Ayurvedic therapies and about 114 verses of this sacred book shares the symptoms and diagnostic techniques of numerous health disorders . Ayurveda is a holistic healing system that treats the individual instead of the symptoms and traces the root cause of an illness . By this way , this ancient common sense science focuses on prevention of illnesses leading through healthy aging process to longevity . Based on the Vedic references of Ayurveda , two ancient Ayurvedic texts were written by the legendary Ayurvedic physicians known as Charaka and Sushruta , who wrote Charaka Samhita and Sushruta Samhita . These Ayurvedic encyclopedias state that everything is a part of nature and the human body is a combination of the five elements known as Panchamaha Bhoothas , namely fire , water , earth , air and space . Every person is made up of a unique individual constitution that consists of three dynamic energies known as doshas ( vata - air & space , pitta - fire & water and kapha - water & earth ) , which are a combination of the elemental forces of nature . For a person to be hale and healthy , these doshas should always remain in a specific ration as set by nature and any change in the functioning or the balance between these doshas cause illnesses . Imbalance of these biological energies mainly occurs due to food habits ( mainly depending on the quality of the food taken ) , change in weather conditions and lifestyle changes . Ayurvedic remedies like plant essential oils , herbs , yoga , meditation , prayers , Abhyanga or the art of Ayurvedic massaging , Panchakarma or the detox technique and Ayurvedic routine are recommended based on the Prakriti or the unique individual constitution of a person and for correcting the imbalances of doshas . Camphor essential oil has the potent to reduce kapha and vata doshas and increase pitta dosha . The major Ayurvedic health benefits of Camphor essential oil are : 1 . Relieves severe pain , spasms and inflammation : Camphor essential oil has antispasmodic , analgesic and anti - inflammatory properties that render itself as a promising pain reliever . The stimulating and counter - irritant effects of this oil relieve even severe muscular and joint pains With its anti - rheumatic and anti - arthritic attributes , Camphor essential oil assists in promoting blood circulation , eliminating toxic deposits in the joints and the entire system through urine and sweat and supporting the functions of the circulatory system . Ayurveda states that rheumatic problems mainly occur due to excess of kapha dosha leading to surplus deposits of water , toxins , salt and uric acid in the system , especially in the joints . Camphor essential oil has the power to reduce kapha dosha and help in discharging ama or toxins in the system along with excess water content in the body . This oil works by anesthetizing the sensory nerves of peripheral nervous system , thus reducing inflammation Massaging the affected or painful parts with 2 drops of Camphor oil blended with 2 drops of Eucalyptus oil and 2 drops of Frankincense oil with 4 ml of coconut oil can be a great aid in reducing inflammation , swelling , painful muscles , redness and stiffness associated with rheumatism and arthritis . This massaging can also help in relieving cramps , abdominal spasms and stiff joints . Adding 2 drops of Camphor essential oil to bathing water can bring in a feeling of newness , coolness and tranquility , especially during the summer season and can also help in alleviating pain and inducing peaceful sleep at night by relaxing the muscles , calming the nerves and cooling the senses . 2 . Combats microbes and skin infections : The essential oil of Camphor oil has been a prominent ingredient in numerous ointments and medications for treating skin infections caused by bacteria , fungi and other microbes . This is attributed to the germicide , disinfectant , anti - microbial and insecticide properties of Camphor oil . 2 drops of Camphor oil mixed with 1 ml of coconut oil can be applied on minor burns , itches , wounds , rashes , insect bites , nail fungus , cold sores , eczema , acne , chapped lips , athlete โ€™ s foot and ringworm . Camphor is an excellent cleanser that helps in disinfecting the system when added to the bath tub ( about 2 to 3 drops ) . 2 drops of Camphor oil with 2 drops of Rosemary oil added to your shampoo can help in treating dandruff and lice . This also helps in granting a cooling effect on the scalp and prevent unnecessary hair fall due to dandruff and lice . 3 . Supports digestive functions : Being a carminative , Camphor oil works wonders in relieving gas and flatulence . Gas in the intestines and stomach , when left unnoticed raises above slowly and causes sharp and severe pain in the chest , which may even lead to difficulty in breathing . Using Camphor oil assists in relieving gas and prevents the formation of gas Along with this , the diaphoretic effects of this oil aids in normalizing metabolic functions , enhancing circulation , improving sluggish digestion and controls the appetite . Mix 2 drops of Camphor oil with 2 drops of Juniper oil along with 2 ml of sesame oil and massage it gently on your abdomen for expelling gas and supporting the functions of the digestive system . 4 . Pacifies the nervous system : Camphor oil treats nervous afflictions and pain in the nervous system by causing numbness . This is attributed to its anesthetic effects . It is a proven remedy for treating neuralgia , which is a relentlessly painful condition caused due to the force on the Ninth Cranial nerve created by the swollen blood vessels surrounding it . Gently massaging the system with 2 drops of Camphor oil , 2 drops of Eucalyptus oil , 2 drops of Juniper oil and 2 drops of Wintergreen oil blended with 5 ml of almond oil can help in reducing inflammation and lessen the pressure on the Ninth Cranial nerve , thus treating neuralgia . This can also assist in lessening the negative effects of epileptic attacks , nervous convulsions , chronic anxiety and nervousness . 5 . Alleviates cold and other respiratory problems : Camphor essential oil has a sharp , strong and medicinal aroma that makes its presence vital in numerous decongestant ointments and vaporubs . Vicks vaporub , the most popular decongestant has Camphor as one among its therapeutic formula . Camphor oil has been in use since the traditional times mainly for its effectiveness in treating respiratory ailments . Excess kapha is the major reason behind the built up of mucus and phlegm deposits causing congestion and other respiratory problems . Camphor oil lessens kapha dosha and discharges mucus and phlegm in the respiratory and nasal passages . Massaging your chest , throat and back with 1 drop of Camphor oil mixed with 1 drop of Eucalyptus oil and 1 ml of olive oil along with 2 drops of Camphor oil added to steam inhalation assists in relieving congestion in the respiratory tract , nasal passages , bronchial tract , pharynx and larynx . Adding to 1 to 2 drops of Camphor oil to warm bathing water can also help in loosening the mucus and phlegm and clear the respiratory system . It is being used as an excellent cough suppressant since the primordial period . The powerful decongestant and bronchodilator properties of Camphor oil makes it an excellent remedy for treating asthma , sinusitis , pulmonary congestion , bronchitis , nasal congestion , whooping cough , common cold , chest congestion and cough .

Consult your Ayurvedic expert / healthcare professional before picking up the perfect essential oils for your health condition and unique individual constitution .

Gas Chromatography Report ( GC analysis ) of Camphor oil Camphor Oil โ€“ Possible Skin Issues : Greener Life Diamond โ€“ Bio - Healthy Score = > 3 Possible Skin Issues : See = > http : / / www . essentialdepot . com / GreenerLifeDiamond . html Camphor oil has been acclaimed as lethal and highly toxic in various studies , when used in excess of the prescribed quantity . According to the safety report , the acute toxicity of Camphor oil is said to be exhibited by contact with the skin , eyes , inhaling and ingesting , however ingestion of Camphor oil should be avoided strictly mainly due to its chronic effects on the liver ( hepatotoxic โ€“ toxic to the liver ) . The major chemical constituents in Camphor oil , responsible for its skin sensitization , allergic reactions , irritation and autoxidation are camphene , 1 , 8 - cineole ( abnormal respiration and CNS depression , epigastric pain and cold sweats ) , limonene and a - pinene . Oils with limonene and a - pinene are responsible for oxidation and oxidized oils cause sensitization and irritation of the skin . Using Camphor oil topically might also cause skin sensitization , irritation , skin allergies like hives , itching , rashes , swelling of the face and lip dryness . Camphor oil used as direct contact with the skin without any dilution in appropriate carrier oils is considered as a dangerous skin irritant . Never use Camphor oil on cuts , broken or peeled skin . It is highly recommended to avoid Camphor oil during pregnancy and breastfeeding , as it gets quickly absorbed by the placenta and may cause physical and neurological damage to the developing fetus and in nursing mothers there are possibilities of Camphor being absorbed through skin cracks and pass on to infants through milk ( might cause damage to the infants โ€™ liver and central nervous system ) . Do not use Camphor oil on patients with bronchitis , asthma , epilepsy and Parkinson โ€™ s disease , as it can cause convulsions , increase spasms , seizures ( by accounting to chemical disparity in the brain ) and worsen the situation . It is also not recommended for high blood pressure patients as it is frequently used in the treatment of low blood pressure . The safe level of use of Camphor is up to 3 % dilution in case of liniments . As per the Dutch Information Medicamentorum , the safe usage level of Camphor is 20 to 100 mg / g for chest rubs , 0.15 mg / ml for nasal sprays , 20 to 50 mg / g for nose ointments , 1 to 70 mg / g for pruritus lotion and 40 to 250 mg / g in oils for muscular pain . However 11 % is regarded as the maximum level of safe usage in all kinds of dermal applications Camphor , according to the Poisons Information Monograph , an International Programme on Chemical safety states that the major risks of ingestion of Camphor are renal damage , colic , anxiety , convulsions , nausea , delirium , gastric irritation , irritation of the mucous membrane , asystole , apnoea , chronic post - convulsive coma and difficulty in breathing occur after ingesting about 2 grams of Camphor ( acute toxicity level ) and 4 grams are possibly lethal for adults and 1 gram for children and may cause death . This report also denotes that the major target organs for Camphor damage are the upper respiratory tract , liver , kidneys and the central nervous system . Certain studies witness the immediate collapse in infants soon after the application of Camphor to their nostrils .

Seeing super sexy Chris Evans shirtless is a sight for straight women , gay men โ€“ and probably quite a few others โ€“ alike .

So obviously a lot of people are having questions about the sexuality of this perfect speciment of a man . So , is Chris Evans gay , or at least bi ? Related : Is James Franco Gay ? Sorry , guys . Unfortunately , Chris Evans is probably not gay . He seems like the kind of hottie that flirts with everyone , male or female , and does n โ€™ t really care what anybody thinks . And the fact that he โ€™ s so gay friendly is no coincidence , because he has confirmed that his brother Scott Evans is gay : โ€œ Yes , I do have a gay brother . I โ€™ m down with the gays . Mostly I โ€™ m hanging out with him and his gay buddies , who are f * cking hilarious . They โ€™ re the funniest people I know .

One guy , when I advised him to only take a half pint of lager , in a particular bar ( had a fuck swing in corner ) , was determined to have a pint . Then , when he saw other guys eyeing him and noticed the swing , started to feel a bit uncomfortable . But we just went on to another bar and he was perfectly happy . His name was Tony .

Having said that , I kind of think his interview , regarding this question , was somewhat contrived . Why ? Well , I โ€™ m gay and have been around the mile track , many times and his description of gays being hilarious and the funniest people alive is a tad over the top !

Web hosting selection One of b2evolution ' s core principles is that you get full control over your website . This also means we recommend that you choose and use your own webhosting . This way , you also retain the freedom to move your site to a different place whenever you see fit . That being said , with hundreds of web hosting companies offering all kinds of hosting plans , it has become challenging to find balance between price features performance and support . On this page you will find a selection of well rounded hosting plans which we recommend for hosting b2evolution as well as any other web site including blogs , forums , galleries , CMS pages as well as e - commerce / shopping carts built with PHP + MySQL . We have collected a metric ton of data on all major web - hosting providers and we have carefully analyzed it . This lead to the following Top 10 . For more details , head over to the : Full Cheap Web Hosting Matrix ยป Additional info below ( scroll down ) . . . TL ; DR โ€“ Best web hosting offers for April 14 , 2019 Updated daily ! Web Host Hosting company Hosting Plan Price / mo . Dom . name Disk space Transfer / mo .

Disclaimer : Some of these hosts will pay us a commission in addition to giving you a promotional price . These commissions are reinvested in the development of the b2evolution software . About web hosting In order for your website to be accessible by your visitors on the Internet , you need to host it with a webhost , i - e a company that has web servers connected to the internet 24x7 . Web hosting companies have thousands of such servers in data centers . For futher details , please see Web hosting explained ยป Those servers can be dedicated to a specific site ( " dedicated servers " - which is expensive ) or shared between several clients and web sites ( which is much more affordable ) . This is called " shared web hosting " . All offers on this page are shared hosting . Our hosting selection The drawback of shared hosting is that if the hosting company shares too few servers between too many clients , then your site could become dramatically slow . This can be acceptable to some level if your primary concern is price ( see our cheap hosting page ) . However , studies have shown that if your home page takes more than 10 seconds to load , visitors will start to abandon your site . On this top 10 , we restricted our selection to companies capable of delivering professional speed & quality hosting services . Our process for selecting , evaluating and ranking web hosting companies and their offers includes : Reputation . We have reviewed all well known web hosting companies as well as the ones suggested by our users . Please use our feedback form to submit your own suggestions . Popularity . We have reviewed all the web hosting companies frequently used by b2evolution powered sites . Speed . For our web hosting reviews , we set up private test sites in order to verify the specs beyond the ads . In many instances we also have public hosting test sites ( you ' ll find them in each review ) , where you can also check for yourself how responsive the host is while browsing through a typical modern blog / CMS site . Reliability & uptime . No host is really 99.99 % perfect here . However , all hosts rated 4 stars or more are in the top performers regarding uptime . Features . Many hosts are loaded with features you do n ' t need . In other cases you may need something very specific or advanced that only a few hosts will offer ( SSH access for example ) . All hosts on this page have the standard features you expect from a modern web hosting company : PHP , Perl , MySQL , control panel and email , all that on your own domain , of course . Support . This is tricky to evaluate . Because the quality of support sometimes varies from one support representative to the next , we kindly ask you to share your experience in the comments section for your host . Unfortunately this also attracts fake comments ( sometimes from competitors , sometimes from the hosts themselves ) . We try to moderate but we reckon this is not 100 % failsafe . A note about Price : we constantly try to find the best coupons or to secure special deals with hosting companies in order to bring you the best prices for each of these hosting offers . Sometimes , however , those prices are valid for a limited time only and it may happen that the promo has expired when you try to take advantage of it . If this happens , please let us know so we can update the site ASAP . In the meantime , grab the good offers while they last & enjoy !

Baba Yaga Wednesday March 2 2016 Court Case Work There are many spiritual works that can be done to support a person through various court case issues and litigation It is possible to affect the outcome of a case in this way Many rituals are employed to sway the judge to rule in your favor sweeten or confuse a jury bind the tongues of witnesses slow down or postpone litigation inhibit the opposing attorney make him seem a bumbling fool enhance the abilities of your representing attorney make him convincing and charming make your own words eloquent and compelling attract empathy and compassion etc Each case is different and The Honey Jar The first thing to do when dealing with a court case is make a honey jar The names of the judge and your supporting attorneys basically anyone that could help you with your case should be placed in the honey jar This is a simple yet powerful way to influence and sweeten the key players in your case A honey jar is a small jar filled with honey and name papers It is kept in a safe place where candles can be burned directly on top of them on a daily or weekly basis Honey jars are a great tool for sweetening people and situations Herbs are sometimes added to the honey Jar depending on the circumstances To make a basic honey jar you will need 1 Small Jar baby food jars or jam jars pimento or caper jars work well A Name Paper specific instructions to follow below Honey to fill the jar Herbs are optional You will find a list of herbs to use for court case work below Candles to burn on top of the jar A tea light candle a white or brown 4 altar candle or a white or brown 6offeratoryhousehold candle are ideal choices Assemble the jar by placing the name papers inside the jar followed by the herbs if any then fill the jar with honey and place the lid tightly Keep the jar in a safe place where you can burn a candle on top of the lid regularly The Name Paper The name paper is a very powerful item for use in many spiritual works It has a strong influence on the person targeted and can be used to direct their actions maneuver situations and affect their attitude Heres how to make a basic name paper Start with a piece of brown paper bag or parchment Carefully crease and tear the paper into a square approximately 3x3 or 4x4 Make sure than none of the edges have been cut with scissors or machinery Using a pencil not a pen write the full name of the person you intend to influence Write the name 7 times making seven lines as if you are writing a list like this John William Doe John William Doe John William Doe John William Doe John William Doe John William Doe John William Doe Dont worry if you do not know the middle name but use it if you have it After that you will turn the paper a 14 turn to the right clockwise and write your own name 7 times across the previous name This forms a grid placing you on top of the other person Then you want to fold the paper in half Make sure to fold towards you not away from you as you are attratracting positive influence over this person Turn the paper a 14 turn to the right and fold again towards you Now the name paper There are many other applications for name papers In regards to court case issues please note the following uses A name paper can be placed in your left shoe prior to meetings hearings or any discussions even phone conversations you will be having with the target individual or groups of people Doing this puts you on top of the situation and the effects are dramatic A name paper can be made for yourself with your name as the primary name and a desirable word or phrase such as good luck and success or victory is mine can be written across your name to attract a positive outcome This paper can be placed in a small red flannel bag mojo and supplemented with appropriately selected herbs The making of a mojo and its many uses are the topic for subsequent articles But essentially you can place your name paper and herbs in a red flannel bag and carry it in your pocket for success A name paper can be used to stop someone from talking As in the case of witnesses or gossips The ritual is quite involved and utilizes a beef tongue This too is a topic for a subsequent article Name Papers can be frozen to halt people from taking action against you Read further to see how to freeze name papers in a freezer spell Freezer Spell Any time someone is working against you filing a lawsuit sending you to collections causing conflict stalking gossiping harassing etc You want to make your first defensive move with the freezer spell The freezer will essentially freeze your enemies and slow them down so you can buy some time to get on top of them To perform a simple freezer spell you will need A name paper as described above A zip lock baggie or ice cube tray Water A freezer When writing a name paper for the freezer you want to omit your own name Write the persons name that you want to freeze 7 times as instructed above But instead of writing your own name across it you will write a command such as Cease and desist or Freeze in your tracks This time when folding the paper you want to fold way from you Folding towards you attracts while folding away from you repells Turn the paper a 14 turn to the right clockwise and fold in half again away from you Place the folded name paper in Herbs Now you have 3 very simple yet powerful tools to help you through your troublesome times I will give you one more useful bit of information Below is a list of herbs that are notably useful in court case work Typically in spiritual works herbs are used in combinations of 3 5 7 9 or 11 For court case work I recommend 3 or 7 Calamus Root Calamus is used to put you in control of others It is a key ingredient in commanding and dominating spells I like to add it to my court case works to give my clients the upper hand It can be placed in a mojo with your name paper and carried with you on your person or prepared as a bath to be taken in the morning before a hearing Calendula Flowers These flowers of the marigold family are used to influence people in court case situations and win their favor Add these to your honey jar mojo or bath for luck in the court room Cascara Sagrada Is used to attract good luck in the court room Add it to your honey jar mojo or bath and burn the herb as a smudge the night before you appear in court Deers Tongue Leaf This herb is used to make a persons words eloquent and convincing Add some to the honey Jar for your lawyer or put some in your mojo or bath to sweeten your own tongue Licorice Root Licorice is often used in conjunction with Calamus root It is potent for influencing others by convincing and compelling them to change their minds in agreement with you Add this to your honey jar mojo or bath Little John Root Chewing John or Galanal If you can find fresh Galangal in the Asian supermarket buy it Take some pieces with you to your court appearance and chew on it as if it were gum Your words will be more convincing and the judge will look favorably upon you Some spiritual workers swear that if you spit a little on the court room floor you will win your case Mustard Seed Black These little black seeds are used to disrupt activities and cause chaos to the illintentions of meddling people Add some black mustard seeds to your mojo and to your freezer spell Poppy Seeds Poppy seeds can be employed to dominate and weaken your enemies while confusing a situation These may also be added to a mojo or the freezer spell Tobacco Tobacco is used to win court cases and influence people near and far Add tobacco to your honey jar mojo or bath Also burn some the night before you appear in court The making of mojos and spiritual baths are topics to for further

JAck takes not notice of this except to make splashes in the bath . So I know its not a competition etc etc , but should he be playing with his feet ? # 1 Apr 25 , 2010 oct - bump Well - Known Member Joined : May 26 , 2009 Messages : 1,027 Likes Received : 0 I think Elle noticed them around 5 months . Before then , she did n ' t seem to notice them at all . One day I thought it was odd and played patty cake with her feet while changing her . That seemed to turn on a switch . She started playing with them immediately . Some babies are obsesed with feet , btw . My nephew used to take poeples socks off to chew on their feet . Some babies like feet more then others . I would n ' t worry about it . You could try sitting him on your lap with nothing on his feet and without any toys . See if he goes for his feet . # 2 oct - bump daniandbaby Pregnant - expecting Apr 12 , 2009 1,108 kye was about 4 - 5 months and he is one of the children that love feet he chases me around the house trying to bitie my toes laughing hystericlly lol # 3 daniandbaby Raven24 mum Mar 28 , 2009 2,322 will was about 4 months old he has never liked anything on his feet though and i think this made it easier for him to find them now he spends most of the day chewing on his feet lol maybe your lo isnt into his feet i guess they are not all the same # 4 Raven24 OmarsMum Well - Known Member Moderator Jan 4 , 2010 19,589 12 wks .

I also wonder if the fact that she has incredibly long legs has anything to do with it , it ' s so easy for her to get hold of her feet when her legs are in the air ! # 8 Cattia Lucy Lu Nov 9 , 2008 1,524 our LO was between 4 and 5 months when he first noticed them and then just steadily kept getting more and more into playing with them until he can now bring both of them right up to his mouth ! - i would n ' t panic tho , they ' re all so different . our LO has only just learnt to roll all the way onto his front and he ' s only done that once as well ! plus he ' s not sitting up unaided yet but sure he will get there in the end ! # 9 Lucy Lu ( You must log in or sign up to post here . ) Share This Page Tweet

Can I keep my boobs big after breastfeeding ? Discussion in ' Breastfeeding ' started by iphonebaby Dec 11 , 2012 iphonebaby Well - Known Member Joined : Nov 28 , 2012 Messages : 56 Likes Received : 0 Hi guys , 2 questions . # 1 . I want to breastfeed really bad , but I ' m worried about my boobs shrinking and sagging . . .I ' ve always been an A so I ' m pretty stoked about maybe going up a size . Is there anyway to keep what I gain ? What if I continue to pump even after the baby is off breastmilk ? I just have a feeling that ' ll be unhealthy after so long . . . # 2 . No breastfeeding related . I ca n ' t seem to view most recent posts very well . All the posts on this site last for like 2 days then new ones come up ? ? Am I missing something ? ? # 1 Dec 11 , 2012 socitycourty Guest I BF for 2 months , I was a 38DD before pregnancy so I was actually worried about being too big , but it really did n ' t happen . They were huge when the milk finally came in . Then after a couple weeks they seemed to regulate and only seemed huge if I was engorged like if she missed a feeding . I stopped BF after 2 months and I weaned her slowly over a week , I was engorged and uncomfortable for a couple days and then back to normal . I was n ' t really worried about my boobs after BF but I was just looking at myself yesterday and they look exactly like they did prepregnancy / BF . # 2 socitycourty armywife11 Mom to Two Joined : Mar 26 , 2011 Messages : 3,488 Likes Received : 0 Im under the understanding that the breast post baby is all genetics . I have friends who did n ' t breast feed and still had saggy boobs . My sister in law breast fed four babies and she still had perky boobs . I had a DD and I am still a DD they are bigger when I am full but I do n ' t stay full long due to nursing and my body regulating . When they are full they hurt like heck ! I have also know people who staid a bigger size and those who did n ' t . I have no clue about pumping post weaning . It could mess with your cycle but i do n ' t think its unhealthy . # 3 armywife11 AriBerri Well - Known Member Aug 21 , 2012 189 Pumping postpartum for however long should be fine health wise . Otherwise there would never have been wet nurses ! Everything else , I ca n ' t really help you with except to say I think I heard its all genetics too lol # 4 AriBerri kajastarlight Number 3 on the way ! Dec 5 , 2012 5,223 Yep genetics . And from what my lactation consultant told me your boobs grow while pregnant and in some people after their milk comes and goes the boobs will return to pre - preggers size and some wo n ' t , some will sag and some wo n ' t but it will happen regardless of breastfeeding . Lol about pumping forever to maintain a bigger size - I kicked around that very idea myself with DS1 ! So funny to know I am not the only one ! # 5 kajastarlight jd83 Mom to 2 beautiful boys ! Aug 28 , 2011 8,200 Its def different for everyone . I have some friends who had small boobs before kids , and ended up getting to keep the bigger boobs , and I also have friends who went back to normal size . I am kind of in between . After breastfeeding my first , they went down some , but not completely back to normal size . So I got to keep a little bit , which was nice # 6 jd83 ( You must log in or sign up to post here . )

Ob suggested nipple stimulation to induce labor ? - Questions ! Discussion in ' Labour & Birth ' started by schneiderkm1 Feb 19 , 2013 schneiderkm1 Member Joined : Jan 28 , 2013 Messages : 16 Likes Received : 1 I am a day short of 36w , but if I do n ' t deliver by week 37 my OB wants to induce me . He suggested trying a few natural ways to induce labor until then . My OB suggested nipple stimulation , which he said to do for an hour every three hours . Said each time I do it I should spend 15 minutes on each side , and repeat until it ' s been an hour . I tried it for the first time last night , it was pretty effective in the sense that it made my uterus contract quite a bit during the hour I did it . The contractions were strong , they would start in my back and move along toward my sides and finally down toward the front , I ' m just not sure that my body is ready to go into labor in the first place , and I believe it will only work if the baby is ready . I have also been using Evening Primrose Oil since last night , since my OB believes it could ripen the cervix , making effacement easier for labor . I just feel so skeptical about the whole naturally inducing labor thing , but I guess it ca n ' t hurt to try as long as my OB okay ' d it , right ? 1 ) Do you feel that trying this helped jump start you into labor ? 2 ) How many days did it take before it actually started labor ? How far along were you ? 3 ) Did your uterus start contracting only 5 minutes into the first time you tried ? 4 ) Had your cervix been checked before you started trying it , and then again after you had tried a few days ? Had it helped progress your dilation / effacement at all ? # 1 Feb 19 , 2013 ccmummy Well - Known Member Joined : Feb 26 , 2012 Messages : 2,374 Likes Received : 0 can i ask why they wont you to go into labor befor 37wks ? ? # 2 ccmummy Feb 20 , 2013 Member Jan 28 , 2013 16 1 LO is already over 9 1 / 2 lbs !

She was just too comfy . I really thought these things would help and i used to get mild contractions but they did nothing . Now i really believe that # 7 Clarabell543 Feb 23 , 2013 NaturalMomma Dec 11 , 2010 2,612 There is no way they can tell you how big your baby is , that is actually a common scare tactic so they can induce early . Your baby could likely be 6 lbs , and is more likely around that at only 36 weeks especially without diabetes . Inducing at 37 weeks with the excuse of big baby is not recommended . Research shows that women should not be induce prior to 39 weeks , even in the case of a big baby due to gestational diabetes . You ' re not ready , which is why you ' re not in labor . Nipple stimulation can cause uterine exhaustion or hyperstimulation of the uterus because you ' re making it contract when it should n ' t be . I would highly recommend getting a second opinion because a 9 lber at 36 weeks is extremely rare . I would also decline an induction . If you had other children and they were small babies then saying you ' re having a 9 lber this time is probably way off . Also , your size does n ' t indicate how big of a baby you can push out . Many 5 feet petite women push out 10 + babies without even a tear . It is your pelvic size that matters , and your pelvis expands in childbirth . # 8 NaturalMomma Feb 23 , 2013 brunette&bubs Mommy to James Jul 22 , 2010 5,014 I agree with Natural Momma . Having a 9lb baby at 36 weeks is not common . Your baby would be like 13 lb at full term . Not normal ! I would wait on the nipple stimulation . Just take evening primrose oil like you have and let your body do the rest . You ' ve still got time hun Get a second opinion on that weight too # 9 brunette&bubs Sproglet Mar 14 , 2012 3,300 Hi , I successfully but accidentally induced myself using nipple stimulation - I was expressing colostrum for baby as I had gestational diabetes , and my waters broke . I do n ' t recommend it . Labour was extremely painful and slow - when I arrived at hospital 2 hours after my waters broke I was 1.5 cm dilated . After 4 hours of extremely painful labour ( I could n ' t walk or talk through contractions ) I made it to 2cm . Which is crazy when you think normally you are n ' t considered in # 10 Sproglet Butterfly89 Mama of 1 Jul 18 , 2011 1,617 I did it at 40w3d and started contractions about an hour later . I tried it at 38 weeks for 2 mins on , 3 off for about half an hour , nothing . But that time I did 3 mins on , 2 mins off for one hour . I would be cautious too . . I had a 36 hour labour with irregular , really painful contractions and a super fast progression after my water broke even though LO was stuck on my hip . I ca n ' t say 100 % it was what started it # 11 Butterfly89 Mar 8 , 2013 mo0nangel Cautiously expecting Jan 12 , 2013 333 Stimulating the nipple sends a message to your brain to release oxytocin ( oxytocin in its synthetic form called Pitocin is what doctors use to speed up labor / contractions ) which causes contractions and therefore could induce labor . # 12 mo0nangel Mar 9 , 2013 ( You must log in or sign up to post here . ) Share This Page Tweet

Can I kiss my baby if I have cold sores ? Discussion in ' Pregnancy - Second Trimester ' started by sparklythings Feb 28 , 2012 Page 1 of 3 1 2 3 Next > sparklythings Guest Hi I am sort of new to the forum . I read a lot of posts but rarely post myself . I started to try for a baby at the same time as my sistyer and last month I found out I was already 8 weeks along . I kept getting dark positve opks even after the day I thought I was ovulating and decided to test . Well now my sister is extrememly jealous I think . Today she has told me that I can not kiss my baby on the face or lips ever when its born because # 1 Feb 28 , 2012 Jslyn9996 Guest I wouldnt let other ppl with cold sores kiss your baby . . But my mom is the queen of coldsores and she wouldnt let them stop her from kissing me when I was a baby . . And to this day I dont get them . . Id ask your dr . as that would probably be the truest . But I honestly think she was trying rain on your parade . Idk im no expert but I thats my opinion # 2 Jslyn9996 vintagecat Mommy to Penelope ! Joined : Jan 11 , 2012 Messages : 2,102 Likes Received : 0 Your sister is weird , no offense . As with any person who is sick , as in has a cold , flu , or cold sore . . .Kissing your baby on the mouth will make your baby become sick . It ' s an infection and it ' s better to be safe than sorry . My mom did n ' t kiss me on the lips as a baby . It was always on the cheek or the top of the head . Another reason to not kiss on the mouth is due to the bacteria in your mouth . It can give your baby I think if you know your health well and take care of yourself , baby will be safe . Just using caution while the baby develops their immune system is probably for the best .

If you have any questions ask your doc hun ! # 4 daydreaming22 scarlett_s Well - Known Member Jan 14 , 2012 186 Your sister is being mean and hurtful . I would avoid kissing the baby if you have an active cold sore as yes this can spread it to others but if you have no cold sores then go ahead and kiss your baby . My mom also gets cold sores but she never kisses us or my DS when she has them and neither me or my sister or any of the grandkids have coldsores . # 5 scarlett_s Thanks girls . Even though cold sores are not pleasant and I would never want to give them to my baby I am more worried about the way they could affect my baby ' s overall health . There are so many hororr stories online about what happens to babies kissed by those who have cold sores . Some kids die and other kids end up mentally disabled . I ' ve been crying all night at the idea that my child will grow up with no kisses from mommy . I do n ' t know if I ' # 6 socitycourty You can still show your baby love even without kissing them if you have a cold sore . Do n ' t let your sister get to you . It ' s better left as a question for your doctor . and congratulations ! # 7 socitycourty socitycourty thank you . Its just so hard to know that if I kiss my baby I could kill him or her or give them coldsores forever . Online it says I ca n ' t kiss my baby anywhere not even on the hands . What do other moms with coldsores do ? # 8 Avalanche Nov 29 , 2009 6,282 My Oh gets cold sores , just do n ' t kiss your LO when you have an active one . That ' s the only precaution you need to take , do n ' t worry . # 9 Avalanche Avalanche just looking at your avitar picture made me cry again . I do n ' t want to take the chance because what if I ' m a shedder ? That ' s how people get the virus is from other people who do n ' t know they have it because they shed and do n ' t have other symptoms of it . This is such a terrible virus . I ' m just so upest right now I can barely even breathe # 10 lilpeeps You CAN kill your baby if you have a cold sore and kiss your baby . It happened recently however as long as you dont kiss your baby when you have an outbreak you will be fine . Take lots of lysine ! # 11 lilpeeps Lilpeeps unfortunately what you and my sister say is correct . Its what I ' ve been reading online and I can pass it to my baby without an outbreak . It took me 11 months to get pregnant and the last thing I want to do is kill my baby with a kiss . Its going to be hard . I ' m just devasted hearing this news . # 12 Dont worry I get them too and Ive never passed it to my husband so if you ' re careful you will be ok . I seriously doubt you will pass it on if you kiss her when you dont have an outbreak . It sux I know how you feel but I take Lysine every day and havent had an outbreak for years . as you get older the outbreaks lessen as well . # 13 sapphire20 Olivia & Alex < 3 Aug 28 , 2008 1,485 It ' s highly unlikely to pass it to your baby when you dont have an active cold sore , if that was the case you would always be worrying and that ' s silly , my daughter did n ' t catch the cold sore virus as a baby but when she was two years old and no one we know has cold sores and she didnt go to nursery or a child minder so she picked it up from some other way than kissing ! All you can do is not kiss your baby when the cold sore # 14 sapphire20 Sapphire that ' s exactly what I mean . You can pass it to someone even if you do n ' t get outbreaks . Because how else did your little one get it ? That ' s how its passed around . From people who do n ' t know they have it because they do n ' t get outbreaks . You ladies are so kind . Lilpeeps thank you for being so sympathetic I really needed it I ' m such a mess right now . I wonder if I can wear those pads that cover them when I get one after LO is here . Funny that you said her because I think I ' m having a her too . # 15 Ran Feb 7 , 2012 434 Do n ' t kiss them when you actually have a cold sore , no , but if you do n ' t have one then it ' s fine . I ' ve never heard of not being able to kiss a baby ever . Do you have a link to this information ? A well - researched one , not just frightened people ? I read about a death in the papers where the mother kissed the baby with the remnants of what she thought was an old cold sore - it was n ' t . I ' ve never passed the virus to my husband in over ten years , nor my son . It is n ' t passed if your lips are fine and you do n ' t currently have an outbreak . # 16 Ran deafgal I would n ' t do it . if you have active cold sore , he could get it too . even if he have been exposed . doctors would recommend you not to touch your eyes and such after touching your cold sores nor pick at it because it can spread . same with kissing your child . some children ca n ' t tolerate cold sores very well . # 17 deafgal Tink84 Mummy to 1 Nov 14 , 2011 1,145 I agree with others do n ' t kiss your baby when you have an active outbreak . Not sure of the truth etc in it but I know lots of people who never kiss a baby on the lips . Not sure of the real reason but they ' ve often said it can spread germs etc to the baby . I too have only ever kissed babies on the cheek or forehead . Also rather than listen to your sister why do n ' t you seek medical advice on this and get the true facts . Also I would avoid google as you ' ll always get horror stories but they may just be that and not have the real truth and facts behind them # 18 Tink84 Just to let you know , because you have been exposed to cold sores or HSV - 1 before pregnancy and developed antibodies for it , it actually a good thing because the antibodies passed to your child give your child a better chance to fight it off if he was ever exposed to the virus ( at least for 6 months , I think ? ) . Beside a lot of people have been exposed to HSV - 1 and their child turn out fine . http : / / www . optiderma . com / en / they - talk - about - it / skin - articles / do - most - people - get - cold - sores . html http : / / health . nytimes . com / health / guides / disease / herpes - simplex / print . html http : / / emedicine . medscape . com / article / 964866 - overview Still , if you have active sores , I would avoid sharing and kissing . if your sores is inactive , it should be fine but I would still avoid kissing on the mouth or eyes or sharing utensils ( sp ? ) or food . as you never know you are about to have an outbreak ( first sign of tingling ) . Plus , other bacteria ( especially those that can speed up teeth decay and gum diseases ) and viruses you could share # 19 Mamie Mum of 2 Feb 24 , 2009 225 I am not trying to scare you , but I would consult your doctor . My cousins little baby was only 3 weeks old when someone with a coldsore kissed her . She ended up in intensive care for 6 weeks , very very ill with swelling in her brain due to the virus . I do n ' t have cold sores so I do n ' t know enough about it , but I do know that my little niece was incredibly ill . What others have said about ' active ' coldsores may be true .

Aug 17 , 2009 2,951 In my antenatal notes in the column where it says ' relation to brim ' my mw wrote NE ( not engaged ) at 28 and 32 week apps then on Monday at 34 week app she wrote 3 / 5 which she said means 2 / 5 engaged and that she could feel 3 / 5 of the head . So basically if your notes say 2 / 5 in the ' relation to brim ' column it means 3 / 5 of your baby ' s head is engaged and 2 / 5 is still free . I read in another post that baby ' s usually start to engage between 33 and 36 weeks but some do n ' t engage until labour actually starts . # 3 muddles ( You must log in or sign up to post here . ) Share This Page Tweet

Test says I ' m ovulating . .when to have sex ? Discussion in ' Second Trimester Losses ' started by amanda83 Jan 20 , 2012 Page 1 of 2 1 2 Next > amanda83 Well - Known Member Joined : Dec 28 , 2011 Messages : 78 Likes Received : 0 I might be a woman but up until I lost my baby I knew very little about the female body . The first preganancy we just had unprotected sex and after a year I got pregnant . This time around I am a little crazy about getting pregnant so " when it happens it happens " attitude just is n ' t going to cut it . I bought ovulation tests and last night it showed that I am ovulating . We had sex last night and again this morning , how often should I be doing it ? Is twice a day too much ? And for how many days does it really matter ? Advice would be very welcome , thank you # 1 Jan 20 , 2012 Bride2b Well - Known Member Joined : Mar 22 , 2011 Messages : 1,760 Likes Received : 0 I think your doing ok with trying by the sounds of it ! BDing too much i.e twice a day isnt so successful so I read ( it makes sense - the argument is the quality of the sperm ) . I plan to follow SMEP , this is the general idea ; Try " every other night starting Day 8 Buy 10 ovulation predictor kit sticks Begin ovulation testing on Day 10 When test is positive , " try " that night , plus two additional nights in a row Skip one night , then do one last " try " Thats from here : http : / / www . pregnancyloss . info / sperm_meets_egg_plan . htm So I would say if you got a positive today . . .try today as you have , then Sat then skip Sun & try Mon . I personally think if you OV today & they say it can be fertilised up to 72 hours after the egg is released . I also read other time frames about how long the egg can be fertilized and it was a case of a few hours - not sure what to believe ? ! Overall just BD over the next few days & you should have just as good a chance as before xxx Good Luck # 2 Bride2b Hellylou Mum to 3 and 1 Angel Sep 9 , 2011 1,040 Hi , as far as I know I do n ' t think there can be too many times or too much . Once it ' s all in there it stays for several days , and the sperm can survive for up to 5 days I think ? As long as it ' s in there ready for the release of the egg , you ' ve got a good chance , so I think the idea is to BD as soon as the positive shows , and then as much as possible til the surge is over - I was also aware that I was about to ovulate by the CM , which I ' d been more aware of somehow since my loss . I know I ovulated quite early last cycle as I happened to use an OPK for the first time out of curiosity and it showed an almost positive on the day we BD ' d , and by the next day it was completely negative . It was quite early in the cycle too , so I may have had a positive the day before that but just did n ' t test Good luck for this cycle # 3 Hellylou Mar 22 , 2011 1,760 Oh & you BD yesterday which is great ! ! ! ! xx # 4 kiki04 A girl can dream . . . . Apr 11 , 2011 2,875 OK I have to ask though when you say it says you are ovulating . . . what exactly are you seeing ? With OPK ' s there may almost always be 2 lines . The two lines are always negative , no ovulation occurring unless both lines are the same darkness . OPK ' s can be very deceiving at the start trying to figure out what is positive and what is not . . . If you are using a digital and a smiley face showed up . . . then you ovulate within 12 - 36 hours # 5 kiki04 Dec 28 , 2011 78 kiki04 said : โ†‘ OK I have to ask though when you say it says you are ovulating . . . what exactly are you seeing ?

This helps a lot I am using the ovulation test with the two lines ( I got them at the dollar store lol ) , next month I have a fancy digital one to use , I wanted to use that this month but it was too late when I bought it . I read to only start it on day 5 of your cycle , at that point I was day 8 , so I will save that for next month ( if need be . . ) . Since I lost my baby my cycles have been far longer than before , my cycles went from 28 days to 34 days ! So I ovulated today on day 20 . Yesterday the test showed a fairly dark line but this morning it showed the same deep purple as the other line on the test , so I understood that to be a positive . Fingers , eyes , and toes crossed Thanks for the help . # 6 A girl can dream . . . . Apr 11 , 2011 2,875 If you ovulated on cd20 with a 34 day cycle . . . that is bang on actually . Gives you a 14 day LP I have a 31 - 33 day cycle and ovulated between 17 - 19 . I have a 13 - 14 day LP so even though you ov late , as long as your cycle is longer then its fine And if the two lines look the same darkness to you . . . . then I would say it was for sure an ovulation day ! ! ! # 7 Andypanda6570 3 Boys and an Angel Ava Nov 22 , 2009 6,280 I use the OPK with the smiley face , cause I can never see if the lines on the other OPK are dark or light . So when I see the smiley face that means 24 to 36 hours i will ovulate . A little info : They say the best time to get pregnant and when you are really fertile is 2 to 3 days before ovulation . I mean it ca n ' t hurt to even DTD on ovulation and the day after , but they say 2 days before you are really fertile and sperm can last 3 to 5 days . I usually ovulate on day 14 so i would DTD on day 10 11 and 12 .

I bought an ovulation test and it worked straight away . With my 3rd in May 09 I used an OV test and again straight away , sadly MMC in July 09 . Used OV test again sept 09 and pregnant straight away again . ( just lost 4th last week at 17 weeks , unplanned but devasted ) These are my tips that worked for me . ( some of it sounds a bit yucky but good to know ) About 3 - 4 days before you are due to ovulate you have a very thick discharge - like egg white , if you stretch it it will go quite long ( if you have had unprotected sex the semen that gets discharged can look the same but this wont stretch ) - after the discharge i did OV test every day . - had sex once a day from day of discharge to day after OV test said i had ovulated . - after sex stayed lying flat for approx 1 hours without moving and legs raised . this worked for me . I am now 40 and hope to try again if my husband agrees . If he does then this is the method i will follow again . i hope this helps . # 15 dancareoi dancareoi said : with my first it was a case of see what happens and luckily it happened straight away . with the second we tried the same and after 4 months nothing had happened .

Ive not had my af yet but have pretty much stopped bleeding from delivering Freya . . .We ' re looking at trying the SMEP and lots of hoping , praying and begging to the heavens above for a sticky bean . I got a tattoo on my wrist 1 week after I had Freya . It has a pink heart , Freya and 21.08.2012 - I absolutely love it . Its comforting knowing that I ' ll have her name on me forever .
