Vascular Ring Anomalies in Dogs
|
Home » Dog Conditions Vascular Ring Anomalies in Dogs Persistent Right Aortic Arch in Dogs Vascular ring anomalies occur when a congenital abnormality of the heart's blood vessels result in the esophagus being compressed at the level of the base of the heart. This, in turn, prevents solid food from being able to pass properly past the compression as well as the dilatation of the esophagus in front of the compressed area. This is termed megaesophagus. Because food is not moved properly through the esophagus, regurgitation occurs. Symptoms and Types German Shepherds, Irish Setters, and Boston Terriers are most commonly affected by vascular ring anomalies. Symptoms of the condition include: Regurgitation of undigested solid food in young dogs (less than 6 months of age)Malnourishment Aspiration pneumonia resulting in coughing, increased heart rate and heavy breathing Time between eating and regurgitation varies. Causes The cause for vascular ring anomalies in dogs is a developmental congenital abnormality. Diagnosis A thorough physical examination and routine blood testing is usually performed. However, imaging is usually necessary for accurate diagnosis. Imaging may include thoracic radiographs (X-rays), contrast esophagography (usually performed with barium), fluoroscopy and/or angiography.1 2 Next View Full Article

February 9 Horoscope February 9th Zodiac As an Aquarius born on February 9th, your personality is defined by your charming, romantic and impulsive nature. People seem to gravitate to your personality, as you are mysterious and warm. Your many admirers is perfect for your romantic nature, as you greatly enjoy being in love and receiving affection. Your relationships may be short-lived however, as you are quite impulsive. In all aspects of life, you can look to explore new and varying interests at a whims notice. February 9th Element Air is the paired element of your sign and of all 12 zodiac signs, you have the only fixed connection with the element. Your special connection with air gives you the stubborn qualities of a fierce wind. As is the case with all the air zodiac signs, air stirs a strong curiosity within you. When your interest is peaked, air pushes you toward knowledge and understanding. Embracing the positive qualities of air will greatly assist you in life, as long as you avoid air's negative qualities. If left unchecked, the stagnant qualities of air can cause bouts of aloofness. February 9th Planetary Influence Uranus is the planetary ruler of your sign, but as you were born in the third Decan, or part, of the Aquarius sign, you also receive the mysterious planetary power of Venus. Uranus, being the planet of deviation, inspires a strong need for freedom and originality in your life. On the other hand, it is Venus that links to your sociability, warmth and love of beauty. More so than any of the Aquarius Decans, your combination of planetary power makes you more sensitive and emotionally in tune. You commit to your friends and family with great time and energy. Unfortunately, your commitment to your loving relationships and even your interests may not be as unconditional. You are the most impulsive of all the members of your sign, which is reflected in your action over thinking nature. February 9th Career Social and original, your natural abilities are well-suited for a variety of career paths, although narrowing your selections down to one is always easier said than done. As you need a constant change of pace and scenery, a career with travel such as sales, international business or consulting may be a great fit for you. Similarly, your caring nature may translate well into people-related careers, such as teaching, advising or counseling. If you are musically inclined, you may use your creativity and sensitivity as a lyricist, much like Travis Tritt, who was also born on February 9th. In the same light, your charms may give you an edge in the world of entertainment of television, which was the case for David Gallagher, another of your celebrity birthday twins. February 9th Sabian Symbol The Sabian Symbol for your birthday is a disappointed and disillusioned woman courageously facing a seemingly empty life. Even in the face of very upsetting circumstances or experiences, you have the ability to display profound resilience. In all matters of life, embrace your strength of character and integrity.

Harrier: the story of the âJump Jetâ fighter jet that helped Margaret Thatcher win the Falklands War

Harrier: the story of the “Jump Jet” fighter jet that helped Margaret Thatcher win the Falklands War Apr 11 2013 - 10 Comments By Jacek Siminski One cannot speak of Margaret Thatcher, who passed away on Apr. 8, 2013, without mentioning the 1982 Falklands – Malvinas a war, a conflict that the UK was able to win thanks to a revolutionary airplane: the Harrier. The origins of the “Jump Jet” date back to the Cold War-The historical context imposed by the Cold War made the tactical experts wonder how to get rid off one of the basic drawbacks of an airplane – airplane is dependent on runways. The reality of nuclear war to come was brutal, airstrips and their coordinates were not secret, both in the West as well as in Soviet Russia. Obviously they would be destroyed in the beginning of any conflict. Assisted Take-off was another approach towards making take-offs shorter. It was issued by the Germans during the WWII. They were pioneers in the field nowadays referred to as JATO or RATO (Jet/Rocket Assisted Take-Off). This approach resulted from severe damages made to the German airstrips by the allied bombers at the end of the WWII. The lenght of the airstrips was limited because of them being damaged. The air superiority can be achieved by destroying the infrastructure needed for the airplanes to operate. Dispersing the aircraft was an idea which was often talked about after the second world war. Some countries have developed a concept of highway strips – section of a highway that is specially built to allow landing of (mostly) military aircraft and to serve as a military airbase. And this was the basic assumption that led to the development of Harrier Jump Jet The advantages of using RATO not only included shortening the required runway lenght but also limit fuel consumption and prolong the range of the aircraft. Using rocket engines had its downsides as well. First of all, the fuel is sensitive and requires special treatment. Second, the additional trained crew for rocket maintenance is needed. JATO technology was broadly researched in the USA. Bombers and other jets had big requirements towards the runways. Without long runways they were not able to operate. Nevertheless, use of RATO throughout the Cold War period was limited. Tactical danger of a nuclear strike has contributed to emergement of ZLL or ZLTO programme (Zero Lenght Launch / Zero Lenght Take-Off). Image Credit: airvectors.net The system has been developed by the Martin company, which, in the early stage of the test programme has used disabled F-84 fighter jets. F-84 had a rocket engine installed in the back section of the fuselage and it was shot into the desert. Test programme was started on Dec. 15, 1953. On Jan. 5, 1954 the first piloted launch took place. The worries (to be proven wrong later) considered the high G-loads the pilots were to face during the take-off procedure. 3.5Gs were recorded, not much more than G-load of an aircraft carrier catapult take-off. F-84 was driven up to 175MPH – well above the stall speed. Nevertheless the programme was abandoned. An interesting application of the JATO technology was the C-130 Hercules destined to the Credible Sport operation. The U. S. planned a hostage rescue mission in Iran in the 1980. The plan was corageous – it assumed C-130 landing and taking-off from a football stadium the hostages were held in proximity of. Credible Sport Test YMC 130 HYour browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available. Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML5 video.0:00 / 2:50The XFC-130H planes had been modified by installing rocket engines on the fuselage, not only to assist take-off but also to shorten the space required for landing. Additional modifications included arrestor hook so that big plane could land on an aircraft carrier. Nevertheless, the problems which occured at programming the rocket sequence made the tacticians turn towards a different rescuing plan. British Rolls-Royce started its VTOL experiments from the early 50s. The Flying Bedstead project used 2 engines – one for vertical flight and the second one for horizontal movement. The project is notable because of the first use of jet engines for providing the control in hover later applied in the lunar landing module. The platform was the springboard for what was to become a foundation for the best known VTOL jet in history. Revolution came together with introduction of Rolls Royce Pegasus Engine and P.11.27 known today as Harrier. It was developed in mid 1960s, as a first of the practical VTOL concepts. The thing that made the Harrier different from other designs at the time was its engine – the Pegasus. The concept surpassed the contemporary VTOL designs in a sense that they either took-off standing on their tail – that was far from being conveinient for the pilots – or needed several powerplants to achieve VTOL. The designers had to overcome meny difficult problems in designs such as Convair Pogo or Lockheed Salmon and Rolls-Royce Flying Bedstead. And the British approached the issue from completly different angle, succeding. Harrier was designed by Hawker Company in 1957 in a form of P.11.27 Kestrel prototype in cooperation with other NATO countries. The Pegasus Engine was the strong point of the new aircraft since it simplified what other designs (e.g. French Balzac) complicated. The concept works as a basic thrust-vectoring – nothing unusual now, in 2013, but quite extraordinary in the ’60s. Nevertheless the concept was not really trusted, and it took almost 20 years for it to prove it was useful. In the mid ’60s the Harrier was the only VTOL aircraft in the market. But its performance in comparison with the conventional designs of that period was not really satisfying. It was subsonic and it could not carry much of armament. Still the U. S. Marines considered it was extremely useful as it did not need runways. In the context of nuclear danger, that feature was a clear advantage. U. S. Marines bought the Harrier in 1968, and in the following year so did RAF. In the RAF, Harrier did not play a role of a frontline fighter, it was rather a CAS aircraft which did not need runways to operate. However, changes were to come, as the Royal Navy did not have big carriers at the time. Being faster than a helicopter, Harrier would be a perfect means for providing cover to the Royal Navy. This is when Sea Harrier was created. It was basically a Harrier fitted with a radar what would make it less of a CAS aircraft and more of a fighter. It is hard to describe the Harrier history without mentioning the Falklands intervention. The concept was still regarded as not very useful until 1982, when the Falklands intervention was conducted. The engineers were saying that they need a small local war to let the Harrier prove its capabilities, and they had it. If it was not for the 20 Harriers that initially took part in the campaign, Margaret Thatcher would have probably lost the war. Nevertheless, the inequality in air-power was signifcant, as at the beginning of the conflict it was 20 Harriers vs. 200 airplanes of the Argentinian Air Force. Additional details on the Falklands intervention can be found in this article by Richard Clements published on The Aviationist for the 30th anniversary of the war. Image credit: Fleet Air Arm Museum Facebook page The war started on May 1, 1982 with the attack on Port Stanley. The enemy for the Harrier – Mirage airplanes – had twice the speed and performance of the Jump Jet. Nevertheless, unique thrust vectoring feature and the hook maneuver let the British pilots achieve the first 2 kills during the war. However, on May 6, 1982, two Harriers were lost due to the terrible weather conditions and fog: they collided mid-air. There were only 18 aircraft left protecting the Royal Navy. Until May 21, Sea Harriers achieved 9 kills, and RAF GR.3 Harriers were on their way on a container ship – Atlantic Conveyor. When they arrived they overtook the air-to-ground tasks, leaving the air-to-air sorties to the Sea Harrier. The Argentinian pilots were undertrained. The objectives given to them during the briefings were to avoid the RAF and Royal Navy’s fighters and to bomb the ships at all costs. On June 6, the Argentinian Skyhawks were attacking the British Fleet, when Harriers intercepted them only one of the four taking part in the attack escaped. However, it was not easy for the British pilots either. The weather conditions were terrible, with the fog and 50 feet waves on the Atlantic. The Argentinian planes also suffered from what the sea l0oked like, because after Port Stanley was overtaken they had to fly from the mainland, continental part of the country. The combat was not easy. Eight planes at a time were stationed on board tha aircraft carrier and one pilot spent the entire night on alert in the Harrier cockpit. That was really excruciating for the crews. The war ended on June 14 when Harrier jets flew their last sortie disabling the Port Stanley. Without them, winning that war so far away from the UK would be practically impossible. And Margaret Thatcher would not be probably that well known.

Foil Hat Wearer • 4 years ago The early days of the Harrier Jump Jet were difficult with plenty of problems, accidents, and a nickname ("the widowmaker") that was difficult to shake. I don't see anybody trashing the Harrier these days. The detractors of the F-22 and F-35 might want to ponder that a bit. Another example: in the early '90s (pre-Gulf War), the media had people convinced that the F-117s and B-2s were a horrible waste of money and inferior to European and Soviet weapon systems (the $2 billion unit cost of a B-2 is still a lie being told daily). Is there a weapon system that the news media hasn't trashed in the last 30 years? The media "military experts" are anything but that. They're usually assigned to that desk because it was vacant when they hired on. They're the last ones we should be listening to on these matters. Marc JA • 4 years ago Totally agreed just like the media trashing the v22 nowadays (lets no mention the F programs). Sure it looks like a waste of money what they dont grasp is the Long Term perspective. In some cases sure its a waste of money (read A400M). Jacek Siminski • 4 years ago Well, when it comes to the last 30 years - yes. But looking at discourses connected with e.g. Viktor Belenko's defection you would spot a totally opposite trend! It was almost like advertising!nubwaxer • 3 years agoshe never tried to destroy the national health program. damn socialist. Marc JA • 4 years ago Hey Jacek, Yet another great article! A point of note though, as much as i disagree with the Argentinian attacks, the key obstacle they face was the only strip they could use was on the mainland leaving them about 5 min max in the fighting zone. I remember watching some documentary on the actual air battles will try to find it. Guillermo Argento • 4 years ago I would like to argue about " The Argentinian planes also suffered from what the sea l0oked like, because after Port Stanley was overtaken they had to fly from the mainland, continental part of the country." A4 and Mirage never operated from the islands, all their missions started in the continent. I would not agree about the training, as they fight with the weapons they have. They could not engage on Air to Air missions as they only have less than 15min to be on the islands. Regards Guillermothinkdefence • 4 years ago Interesting piece Jacek but I would disagree on a few points. The Argentine naval and air force pilots were far from undertrained, it is a common myth. We might argue their tactics were incorrect in going after the warships at San Carlos for example, instead of the amphibious and cargo vessels but to characterise them as undertrained is perhaps a little harsh. Avoiding combat with the British aircraft was the right thing to do because without the cargo and soldiers on the amphibs, nothing was going to happen. Argentine aircraft were operating at the extreme of their range and had little payload for anything but bombs, they were extremely brave in this regard. The GR3's did not completely take over ground attack missions from the Sea Harrier, the latter carrying out a variety of ground attack missions throughout the conflict although preserving them for the anti air mission was important. What do you mean about the last sortie disabling Port Stanley. Perhaps this is because of translation, interesting stuff though and thanks for writing it Jacek Siminski • 4 years ago Well, I have to address the issues above. Firstly, when it comes to being undertrained - It is what lot of Harrier pilots said. The RAF pilots were impressed with the bravery of the Argentinian crews, nevertheless they had no problems with fighting much faster Mirages - this is what I found in the interviews with Falkland veterans, Maybe they spread the myth? Secondly, never have I said that GR.3's took over the ground attack role COMPLETELY. This is not written in the post above. The last sortie the Harriers flew during the war was on the 14th of June - that is the day when, during the Harrier attack the Argentinian forces surrendered Port Stanley. Disabling is a shortcut to an idea of disabling the Argentinian defence. Hope this clarifies my opinion.thinkdefence • 4 years ago Thanks Jacek, good points I think the point about fighting the much faster Mirages had as much to do with their extreme lack of fuel rather than deficiencies in training, thus preventing them from using their speed advantage. The myth I refer to is the widely held one that Argentine forces in the air and on the ground were universally poor, this is simply not the case. On the GR3 item, perhaps its lost in translation but taking over and leaving the air to air sorties to the Sea Harrier infers exclusivity, I don't want to nitpick though!The last sortie is an interesting one, it was still in the air when the white flags were observed. All good stuff though, as I said, an interesting post and always good to see others views. Have tweeted you some of the stuff I have written about the Harrier and the Falklands

How sensitive is our climate?

How sensitive is our climate? Link to this page What the science says... Select a level... Basic Intermediate Advanced Some global warming ' skeptic s' argue that the Earth's climate sensitivity is so low that a doubling of atmospheric CO2 will result in a surface temperature change on the order of 1°C or less, and that therefore global warming is nothing to worry about. However, values this low are inconsistent with numerous studies using a wide variety of methods, including (i) paleoclimate data, (ii) recent empirical data, and (iii) generally accepted climate model s. Climate Myth... Climate sensitivity is low"His [Dr Spencer's] latest research demonstrates that – in the short term, at any rate – the temperature feedbacks that the IPCC imagines will greatly amplify any initial warming caused by CO2 are net-negative, attenuating the warming they are supposed to enhance. His best estimate is that the warming in response to a doubling of CO2concentration, which may happen this century unless the usual suspects get away with shutting down the economies of the West, will be a harmless 1 Fahrenheit degree, not the 6 F predicted by the IPCC ." ( Christopher Monckton)Climate sensitivity describes how sensitive the global climate is to a change in the amount of energy reaching the Earth's surface and lower atmosphere (a.k.a. a radiative forcing ). For example, we know that if the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the Earth's atmosphere doubles from the pre-industrial level of 280 parts per million by volume ( ppm v) to 560 ppm v, this will cause an energy imbalance by trapping more outgoing thermal radiation in the atmosphere, enough to directly warm the surface approximately 1.2°C. However, this doesn't account for feedbacks, for example ice melting and making the planet less reflective, and the warmer atmosphere holding more water vapor (another greenhouse gas ). Climate sensitivity is the amount the planet will warm when accounting for the various feedbacks affecting the global climate . The relevant formula is:d T = λ*d FWhere 'd T' is the change in the Earth's average surface temperature, 'λ' is the climate sensitivity, usually with units in Kelvin or degrees Celsius per Watts per square meter (°C/ [W m -2 ]), and 'd F' is the radiative forcing, which is discussed in further detail in the Advanced rebuttal to the 'CO 2effect is weak' argument. Climate sensitivity is not specific to CO 2It's important to note that the surface temperature change is proportional to the sensitivity and radiative forcing (in W m -2), regardless of the source of the energy imbalance. The climate sensitivity to different radiative forcing s differs depending on the efficacy of the forcing, but the climate is not significantly more sensitive to other radiative forcing s besides greenhouse gas es. Figure 1: Efficacies of various radiative forcing s as calculated in numerous different studies ( IPCC 2007)In other words, if you argue that the Earth has a low climate sensitivity to CO 2, you are also arguing for a low climate sensitivity to other influences such as solar irradiance, orbital changes, and volcanic emissions. In fact, as shown in Figure 1, the climate is less sensitive to changes in solar activity than greenhouse gas es. Thus when arguing for low climate sensitivity, it becomes difficult to explain past climate change s. For example, between glacial and interglacial periods, the planet's average temperature changes on the order of 6°C (more like 8-10°C in the Antarctic). If the climate sensitivity is low, for example due to increasing low-lying cloud cover reflecting more sunlight as a response to global warming, then how can these large past climate change s be explained? Figure 2: Antarctic temperature changes over the past 450,000 years as measured from ice core s What is the possible range of climate sensitivity? The IPCC Fourth Assessment Report summarized climate sensitivity as "likely to be in the range 2 to 4.5°C with a best estimate of about 3°C, and is very unlikely to be less than 1.5°C. Values substantially higher than 4.5°C cannot be excluded, but agreement of models with observations is not as good for those values ." Individual studies have put climate sensitivity from a doubling of CO 2 at anywhere between 0.5°C and 10°C; however, as a consequence of increasingly better data, it appears that the extreme higher and lower values are very unlikely. In fact, as climate science has developed and advanced over time , estimates have converged around 3°C. A summary of recent climate sensitivity studies can be found here . A study led by Stefan Rahmstorf concluded "many vastly improved models have been developed by a number of climate research centers around the world. Current state-of-the-art climate model s span a range of 2.6–4.1°C, most clustering around 3°C" ( Rahmstorf 2008). Several studies have put the lower bound of climate sensitivity at about 1.5°C,on the other hand, several others have found that a sensitivity higher than 4.5°C can't be ruled out. A 2008 study led by James Hansen found that climate sensitivity to "fast feedback processes" is 3°C, but when accounting for longer-term feedbacks (such as ice sheetdisintegration, vegetation migration, and greenhouse gas release from soils, tundra or ocean), if atmospheric CO2 remains at the doubled level, the sensitivity increases to 6°C based on paleoclimatic (historical climate) data. What are the limits on the climate sensitivity value? Paleoclimate The main limit on the sensitivity value is that it has to be consistent with paleoclimatic data. A sensitivity which is too low will be inconsistent with past climate change s - basically if there is some large negative feedback which makes the sensitivity too low, it would have prevented the planet from transitioning from ice age s to interglacial periods, for example. Similarly a high climate sensitivity would have caused more and larger past climate change s. One recent study examining the Palaeocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum (about 55 million years ago), during which the planet warmed 5-9°C, found that "At accepted values for the climate sensitivity to a doubling of the atmospheric CO2 concentration, this rise in CO 2 can explain only between 1 and 3.5°C of the warming inferred from proxy records" ( Zeebe 2009). This suggests that climate sensitivity may be higher than we currently believe, but it likely isn't lower. Recent responses to large volcanic eruptions Climate scientists have also attempted to estimate climate sensitivity based on the response to recent large volcanic eruptions, such as Mount Pinatubo in 1991. Wigley et al. (2005) found:"Comparisons of observed and modeled coolings after the eruptions of Agung, El Chichón, and Pinatubo give implied climate sensitivities that are consistent with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change ( IPCC) range of 1.5–4.5°C. The cooling associated with Pinatubo appears to require a sensitivity above the IPCC lower bound of 1.5°C, and none of the observed eruption responses rules out a sensitivity above 4.5°C. "Similarly, Forster et al. (2006) concluded as follows. "A climate feedback parameter of 2.3 +/- 1.4 W m -2K -1is found. This corresponds to a 1.0–4.1 K range for the equilibrium warming due to a doubling of carbon dioxide "Recent responses to the 11-year solar cycle Tung and Camp (2007) noted that"the annual rate of increase in radiative forcing of the lower atmosphere from solar min to solar max happens to be equivalent to that from a 1% per year increase in greenhouse gas es, a rate commonly used in greenhouse-gas emission scenario s [Houghton and et al., 2001]. So it is interesting to compare the magnitude and pattern of the observed solar-cycle response to the transient warming expected due to increasing greenhouse gas es in five years. "Tung and Camp were thus able to use satellite-based solar data over 4.5 cycles to calculate an observationally-determined model-independent climate sensitivity of 2.3-4.1°C for a doubling of CO2. Empirical or 'Instrumental' Observation Methods Gregory et al. (2002) used observed interior-ocean temperature changes, surface temperaturechanges measured since 1860, and estimates of anthropogenic and natural radiative forcing of the climate system to estimate its climate sensitivity . They found:"...we obtain a 90% confidence interval, whose lower bound (the 5th percentile) is 1.6 K. The median is 6.1 K, above the canonical range of 1.5–4.5 K; the mode is 2.1 K."Recently, several other studies have taken a similar approach and yielded lower equilibrium climate sensitivity estimates, i.e. Ring et al. (2012), Aldrin et al. (2012), Lewis (2013), and Otto et al. (2013), in most cases with central estimates closer to 2°C for a doubling of CO2. However, Shindell (2014) reconciles the difference between the climate sensitivityestimates in these varying approaches . Shindell notes that the 'empircal' or 'instrumental' approach studies assume that the global mean temperature response to all forcings is equal. His study investigates this assumption by comparing climate model temperature responses to greenhouse gas es with their responses to aerosols and ozone. Shindell, who was a co-author on Otto et al. (2013), notes that “ forcing in the NH extratropics [above 30° latitude] causes a greater global mean temperature response than forcing in the tropic s”; a result noted by Hansen et al. (1997):“A forcing at high latitudes yields a larger response than a forcing at low latitudes. This is expected because of the sea ice feedback at high latitudes and the more stable lapse rate at high latitudes ”The forcing from aerosols and ozone isn’t globally uniform, but instead focused more in the northern hemisphere extratropics. Hence it results in a relatively larger temperature response than an equivalent forcing from greenhouse gas es, which are well mixed throughout the atmosphere. When assuming equal sensitivity to all forcings, Shindell estimates the transient climate response ( TCR) at 1.0–2.1°C, most likely 1.4°C, which is similar to the estimate in Otto et al. (2013) . However, when Shindell accounts for the higher sensitivity to the aerosol andozone forcings, the estimated TCR range rises to 1.3–3.2°C, most likely 1.7°C. Compared to the IPCC estimated TCR range of 1–2.5°C, and the range in climate model s of 1.1–2.6°C, Shindell's results give a low probability for the low end of the range and higher probability for the high end . Given the strong correlation between TCR and equilibrium climate sensitivity, Shindell’s results also suggest that the lower climate sensitivity estimates are unlikely to be accurate. Examining Past Temperature Projection s In 1988, NASA climate scientist Dr James Hansen produced a groundbreaking study in which he produced a global climate model that calculated future warming based on three different CO2 emissions scenario s labeled A, B, and C ( Hansen 1988 ). Now, after more than 20 years, we are able to review Hansen’s projection s. Hansen's model assumed a rather high climate sensitivity of 4.2°C for a doubling of CO 2 . His Scenario B has been the closest to reality, with the actual total radiative forcing being about 10% higher than in this emissions scenario . The warming trend predicted in this scenario from 1988 to 2010 was about 0.26°C per decade whereas the measured temperature increase over that period was approximately 0.18°C per decade, or about 40% lower than Scenario B. Therefore, what Hansen's models and the real-world observations tell us is that climate sensitivity is about 40% below 4.2°C, or once again, right around 3°C for a doubling of atmospheric CO 2 . For further details, see the Advanced rebuttal to "Hansen's 1988 prediction was wrong. "Probabilistic Estimate Analysis Annan and Hargreaves (2009) investigated various probabilistic estimates of climate sensitivity, many of which suggested a "worryingly high probability" (greater than 5%) that the sensitivity is in excess of than 6°C for a doubling of CO2 . Using a Bayesian statistical approach, this study concluded that"the long fat tail that is characteristic of all recent estimates of climate sensitivity simply disappears, with an upper 95% probability limit...easily shown to lie close to 4°C, and certainly well below 6°C. "Annan and Hargreaves concluded that the climate sensitivity to a doubling of atmospheric CO2is probably close to 3°C, it may be higher, but it's probably not much lower. Figure 3: Probability distribution of climate sensitivity to a doubling of atmospheric CO 2Summary of these results Knutti and Hegerl (2008) presents a comprehensive, concise overview of our scientific understanding of climate sensitivity . In their paper, they present a figure which neatly encapsulates how various methods of estimating climate sensitivity examining different time periods have yielded consistent results, as the studies described above show. As you can see, the various methodologies are generally consistent with the range of 2-4.5°C, with few methods leaving the possibility of lower values, but several unable to rule out higher values. Figure 4: Distributions and ranges for climate sensitivity from different lines of evidence. The circle indicates the most likely value. The thin colored bars indicate very likely value (more than 90% probability). The thicker colored bars indicate likely values (more than 66% probability). Dashed lines indicate no robust constraint on an upper bound. The IPCC likely range (2 to 4.5°C) is indicated by the vertical light blue bar. What Does it all Mean? According to a recent MIT study, we're currently on pace to reach this doubled atmospheric CO 2 level by the mid-to-late 21st century. Figure 5: Projected decadal mean concentrations of CO2 . Red solid lines are median, 5%, and 95% for the MIT study, the dashed blue line is the same from the 2003 MIT projection. So unless we change course, we're looking at a rapid warming over the 21st century. Most climate scientists agree that a 2°C warming is the 'danger limit'. Figure 5 shows temperature rise for a given CO2 level. The dark grey area indicates the climate sensitivity likely range of 2 to 4.5°C. Figure 6: Relation between atmospheric CO 2 concentration and key impacts associated with equilibrium global temperature increase. The most likely warming is indicated for climate sensitivity 3°C (black solid). The likely range (dark grey) is for the climate sensitivity range 2 to 4.5°C. Selected key impacts (some delayed) for several sectors and different temperatures are indicated in the top part of the figure ( Knutti and Hegerl 2008)If we manage to stabilize CO 2 levels at 450 ppm v (the atmospheric CO 2 concentration as of 2010 is about 390 ppm v ), according to the best estimate, we have a probability of less than 50% of meeting the 2°C target. The key impacts associated with 2°C warming can be seen at the top of Figure 6. The tight constraint on the lower limit of climate sensitivity indicates we're looking down the barrel of significant warming in future decades. As the scientists at Real Climate put it,"Global warming of 2°C would leave the Earth warmer than it has been in millions of years, a disruption of climate conditions that have been stable for longer than the history of human agriculture. Given the drought that already afflicts Australia, the crumbling of the sea ice in the Arctic, and the increasing storm damage after only 0.8°C of warming so far, calling 2°C a danger limit seems to us pretty cavalier."

What Is the Bt Toxin?
|
What Is the Bt Toxin?by Dr. Edward Group DC, NP, DACBN, DCBCN, DABFMLast Updated on July 22, 2013Unfortunately, modern farming has fully embraced the use of harmful pesticides and herbicides to control unwanted critters and weeds. Synthetic chemicals have largely been responsible for accomplishing the task but the agricultural industry has more recently started a biological warfare campaign against insects with an organism known as Bacillus thuringiensis, or the Bt toxin. What is Bacillus thuringiensis? Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is a bacteria that produces proteins which are toxic to insects. Bt’s extreme toxicity comes at no surprise. It’s in the same family of bacteria as B. anthracis, which causes anthrax, and B. cereus, which causes food poisoning. [ 1]What is Bt Used For? Bt is toxic to many of the insects that can disrupt a farming operation. It’s widely used as a biological pesticide and, in fact, Bt is the most widely used biological pesticide in the world. Bt application can happen one of two ways — Bt can be sprayed on crops or it can be added to the DNA of genetically modified crops. Neither method is positive for health or society, but the second is quite interesting in that it actually embeds a self-contained pesticide within the crop. If a bug eats corn that contains Bt, the bug dies — simple. In the United States, Bt use is widely used on corn, cotton, and potatoes, among other crops, and it’s been pushed as a less dangerous alternative to harsh chemical pesticides. [ 2]Perhaps part of the reason for the push is that Bt can be cheaply produced. This has lead to a peanut gallery of industry yes men who are eager to chant, “it’s safe, it’s safe!” despite a widely held belief that the safety of Bt has not been verified. [ 3] In fact, many experts believe that Bt is not safe at all. The Dangers of Bt Toxin Bt does not kill insect larvae by smothering them with love and hugs. Bt is an aggressive toxin that damages cell membranes and kills insects by, literally, making their stomach burst. This has caused some researchers to examine the negative effects Bt toxin may inflict on human health… and the negative effects are many. Bt’s aggressive mechanism harms the digestive system by effectively attacking normal gut cells thereby burning holes in the intestines. This can cause problems such as leaky gut syndrome. Even worse, Bt doesn’t exit your body with the unused remnants of the food it entered with. Research has shown that the Bt toxin persists in the gastrointestinal tract of human-flora-associated rats weeks after exposure. [ 4] Research has shown that Bt has a toxic effect on the lungs and other organs. [ 5] In rare cases, Bt can even wreak havoc on the eyes, causing severe irritation and even blindness. [ 6]How Does Bt Exposure Happen? Exposure to Bt is a major problem for agricultural workers who handle chemicals that contain Bt. In a study that evaluated greenhouse workers, it was found that nearly half had Bt in their fecal samples. [ 7] One of the biggest problems with occupational Bt exposure is that, despite causing serious lung damage, it does not irritate the airway when it’s inhaled. It’s been reported that many people who are subject to occupational exposure do not wear protective masks. [ 8]The Food You Eat Probably Contains the Bt Toxin If Bt is the most widely used biopesticide in the agricultural industry, does that mean it’s found in the food we eat? Yes, it means exactly that. If you’re eating GMO or non-organic food, there’s a good chance you’re consuming Bt. Research has repeatedly confirmed that Bt insecticide residue can remain on fresh fruits and vegetables. [ 9] [ 10]Unfortunately, Bt toxin exposure is not limited to raw fruits and vegetables and you can’t wash it off. In 2006, researchers found the Bt toxin in pasteurized milk, ice cream, juice, and green-tea, suggesting that the toxic bio-pesticide residue lingers through multiple stages of food production. [ 11] Additionally, GMO foods are digested more slowly and when they contain Bt, the sustained exposure puts the digestive system at risk for additional damage. [ 12]Bt Toxin Linked to Food Poisoning? Because of Bt’s relation to B. cereus, an organism frequently responsible for food poisoning, it too has been fingered as a potential source of food poisoning. After analyzing over 49,000 food samples, the Danish Institute for Food and Veterinary Research found that when B. cereus is present, it’s often because of Bt. [ 13]Does Bt Toxin Damage the Environment? Bt helps to perpetuate another major problem — the development of pesticide resistant organisms. Resistance is an inevitable and unstoppable evolutionary response to stress. The insecticides of today are not the insecticides of yesterday. Newer, stronger stuff needs to be used to do the job and, regardless of the effort, superbugs continue to evolve to stay ahead of the curve, this is incredibly bad. Researchers at the Department of Entomology and Nematology at the University of Florida warn that effective pesticides are limited and should be reserved for emergency situations such as an unexpected pest population outbreak. They should not be used as standard protocol — which, presently, is exactly how they are used. [ 14] The declining bee population is another major issue which many scientists link directly to GMO foods and the Bt toxin. Without bees, our future does not look bright. Reduce Your Exposure to the Bt Toxin Let’s be very clear — Bt toxin is an aggressive, toxic poison. It kills bugs dead and it kills them with an angry vengeance. Regardless of the propaganda slang by the biopesticide industry, research and common sense both indicate that Bt is not at all good for your health. Detox your body from GMO’s today and do what you can to stop Monsanto from killing our ecosystem and food supply!References (14)†Results may vary.

Bee The BT punches holes in the intestines and also other organs. I was exposed April 13, 2016 and my hands are full of holes. It is interesting how new psych diseases are being created which coincidently mimic the symptoms of exposure. It is also interesting how much internet control is going on with respect to thus issue. The GI issues are horrific with white or bloody stools, bloating, gas, passing solid food, vomiting, weight swing followed by weight loss, movement in the abdomen, and diarreah. Then there is the hair loss, yellow nails, temperature swings, loss of teeth, white tongue, and headaches. The Doctors have sent me home to die. Seems counterproductive to poison healthy productive members of society. Who will buy the poisoned food when everybody is dying?ricter That it is…as a spray, not as a gene that constantly reproduces the toxin while in the GI tract of a host. That is the difference: Constant toxin production that clears the Gastric and reaches the small bowel, using Proteases created by Lactobacilli to become active. The inability to metabolize it makes it worse, because it will continue to act on GI flora, allowing resistant pathogens to flourish. If they just sprayed it on the plants, the b T would just die in the stomach. But this is not the case when it is produced by a gene that is attached to undigestable fibers that clear every portion of the GI tract.ricter What you and other proponents of Bt refuse to understand is that the gene that produces this toxin is protected by an undigestable insoluble polysaccharide, which allows it to clear the stomach acids and reach the small bowel. In the small bowel there are Lactobacilli such as L. Rhamnosis that produce over 40 protein-enzymes, which are required for the Bt toxin to activate. NONE of these “studies” have ever been done in a human host with a human microbiota. The lab tests are skewed because they do not include the human microbiota and the organisms that are directly affected by the chemical produced from these genes. This is critical, because it is the chemical produced by other organisms that activate the Bt toxin. The affect on and how it interacts with Lactobacilli and Bifido bacteria have never been studied, or, at worst, never released to the public. Based on what I know, Bt toxin in theory should have an adverse affect on gut flora. I also think it would have an interaction with proteases that would prevent the proper digestion of certain proteins, namely, complex plant proteins such as wheat gluten and cassein. Until there are detailed, in depth studies done on how Bt interacts with a real, live human gut microbiota over a large participant base, I will reserve my endorsement on the “safety” of such a chemical…Will Vazquez Thank you for clearing that up…. Bio film is allowing B.t to make it past the stomach ….ok I can see that being possible… We should talk some time .

Obsidian Gemstone Information About Obsidian - History and Introduction Obsidian is naturally occurring volcanic glass which has been used as a gemstone since antiquity. Obsidian was named after Obsius, a Roman who discovered a similar stone. Obsidian forms when lava cools and whilst it is mineral-like, it is not considered to be a true mineral because its composition is too complex and it does not have a crystalline structure. In addition to its decorative use, obsidian has a practical use. Due to its lack of cleavage, conchoidal fracture and acute edges when broken, it has been used to make smooth and sharp surgical scalpel blades. Obsidian has been used to make arrow heads and blades, as well as ornaments for thousands of years by people such as the pre-Columbian Mesoamericans and the ancient Egyptians. In its pure form, obsidian has a dark body color due to the presence of iron and magnesium. Obsidian can be classified into varieties according to several characteristics. However, some basic types of obsidian include the following: Mottled (snowflake and peanut obsidian), banded or veined (mahogany, midnight lace and pumpkin obsidian), pebbles or small nodules (Apache tears) and sheen (sheen obsidian, cat's eye, rainbow and fire/flame obsidian). Identifying Obsidian Obsidian Origin Buying Obsidian Obsidian Gemological Properties Obsidian; Related Gems Obsidian Mythology Obsidian Jewelry Famous Obsidian Gemstones Obsidian Gemstone Care Shop Obsidian Click to enlarge image Identifying Obsidian Back to Top Obsidian can be identified by its glassy luster and single refraction. Obsidian; Origin and Gemstone Sources Back to Top Obsidian is found in places that have experienced volcanic eruptions. Such places include Argentina, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Canada, Chile, Georgia, Greece, El Salvador, Guatemala, Iceland, Italy, Japan, Kenya, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Scotland, Turkey and the United States. Buying Obsidian and Determining Obsidian Gemstone Value Back to Top Obsidian Color Pure obsidian is a very dark color. It gets this color from the presence of iron and magnesium. Colorless obsidian is rare. Mahogany obsidian has dark-brown to black and red banding. Sheen obsidian is dark-brown to black with a golden or silver sheen (this is also called aventurescence). Rainbow obsidian is dark-brown to black with an iridescent sheen. The iridescence of obsidian can be gold, silver, blue, violet, green or combinations of these colors. The rainbow colors of rainbow obsidian come from the presence of augitic pyroxene. "Fire" or "flame" obsidian reflects bright colors due to the presence of nanometric magnetite crystal layers. Transparent pale yellow-green to brownish obsidian from Peru is referred to as macusanite. Translucent to opaque, black-streaked orange, red or brown obsidian nodules from the American Southwest are known as "Apache tears". Orange obsidian is referred to as "pumpkin obsidian" and plum-colored obsidian is called "plum obsidian". Obsidian Clarity and Luster Since obsidian is volcanic glass, it has a vitreous (glassy luster). It may contain inclusions which cause a silver or gold sheen. It may also contain needle-like inclusions, gas bubbles, torpedo-shaped bubbles, teardrop-shaped bubbles or cristobalite crystal inclusions, which appear like "snowflakes" in " snowflake obsidian ". Obsidian from Chile has also been found containing very rare inclusions of euhedral indialite crystals and transparent rods of sillimanite. Bolivian obsidian has been found to contain orange spessartine inclusions. Obsidian can display chatoyancy (cat's eye effect). Obsidian Cut and Shape Due to the opacity of most types of obsidian, it is usually cabochon cut, fancy cut, sphere-cut, tumbled, made into cameos or carved. Cabochon cuts also best exhibit any sheen or iridescence. Translucent to transparent materials are faceted. Obsidian Treatment Obsidian is not usually treated or enhanced in any way. Obsidian Gemological Properties: Back to Top Chemical Formula/Composition: 70-75% Si O2 + Mg O, Fe3O4 Volcanic, amorphous, siliceous glassy rock Crystal Structure: None Color: Black, grey, brown, orange; rarely green, red or blue Hardness: 5 - 5.5 on the Mohs scale Refractive Index: 1.45 - 1.55Density: 2.35 - 2.60Cleavage: None Transparency: Transparent to opaque Double Refraction or Birefringence: None Luster: Vitreous Fluorescence: None Please refer to our Gemstone Glossary for details of gemmology-related terms. Obsidian: Related or Similar Gemstones Back to Top Hematite Obsidian has some similarities to quartz, due to its silicon dioxide content. However, quartz is a harder material than obsidian, at 7 on the Mohs scale, whereas obsidian has a hardness of 5 to 5.5. Additionally, obsidian has a lower density and refractive index than quartz. Also, obsidian is singly refractive whereas quartz is doubly refractive. Obsidian can appear similar to hematite, aegirine-augite, gadolinite, pyrolusite and wolframite, which all have a higher density than obsidian. Jet can also appear similar to obsidian, but it is a softer substance. Obsidian Gemstone Mythology, Metaphysical and Alternative Crystal Healing Powers Back to Top Obsidian is thought to be a powerful stone that can offer protection against negativity. It is sometimes called "the stone of truth" because it encourages the surfacing of secrets and hidden emotions. Additionally, obsidian is also thought to be a balancing and grounding stone. Traditional Indian belief systems associate obsidian with the root chakra, which governs sexuality and stability. Centuries ago, black obsidian mirrors were used to contact the spirit world, and it is thought to be useful in resolving issues related to past lives. Obsidian is also considered to be particularly useful for those suffering from depression or addiction.

Obsidian Gemstone and Jewelry Design Ideas Back to Top Obsidian's beautiful natural dark, glossy color makes it fashionable for both young and old, male and female. Obsidian gemstones make for a dramatic, high-fashion look. They can be fashioned into vintage, gothic, Celtic and punk-inspired designs, or modern, edgy pieces. Obsidian is often set in silver, which provides an attractive contrast to its dark color. The versatility of obsidian allows it to be fashioned into a wide variety of jewelry, such as beads for bracelets and necklaces, cabochons for pendants and rings, or carved pieces that are used for pendants and other items. The shiny glassy luster of black obsidian means that it looks good both faceted and as smooth cabochons. Obsidian arrowheads are also made into striking tribal-style rings or necklace and earring pendants, which have a dramatic look when set in gold. Note: Buy colored gemstones by size and not by carat weight. Colored stones vary in size-to-weight ratio. Some stones are larger and others are smaller than diamonds by weight in comparison. Famous Obsidian Gemstones Back to Top Dr Dee's mirror is a highly polished piece of obsidian which was used as an occult research tool by Elizabethan mathematician, astrologer and magician, John Dee (1527 - 1608/9). It was originally an Aztec cult object and is on display at The British Museum. Some of the pupils of the eyes of the "Moai" (statues of human figures) on Easter Island that were carved between 1250 and 1500, were made from obsidian. The Necklace of Renisenib; a gold and obsidian necklace, dated at around 1810 - 1700 BC, was excavated from the Nile Valley by Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon in 1910 and is now displayed at the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art. Brooklyn Museum, USA, displays various pieces of obsidian in its exhibition of Ancient Egyptian Fragments and Amulets, such as the eye from a coffin and a two finger amulet that would have been placed on a mummy to protect the deceased. Obsidian Gemstone Jewelry Care and Cleaning Back to Top Although obsidian has a hardness of 5 - 5.5 on the Mohs scale, which is softer than quartz, it is a durable material. To clean your obsidian, simply use soapy water and a soft cloth. Be sure to rinse well to remove soapy residue. As with most gemstones, ultrasonic cleaners and steamers are not recommended. Always remove any jewelry or gemstones before exercising, cleaning or engaging in harsh physical activities such as sports. Obsidian can be easily scratched by harder substances, so it should be stored away from other gemstones. It is best to wrap gemstones in soft cloth or place them inside a fabric-lined jewelry box.

Explanation of the web of trust of PGP
|
[Hauptseite Server] [Hauptseite PGP] [Key Signing Sessions] [Session Februar 2006] [Deutsche Version]Explanation of the web of trust of PGPEveryone can generate a PGP key by himself. If you want to know if a given key belongs really to the person stated in the key, you have to verify that. This is very easy if you know the person who created the key. But is is difficult if you do not know that person at all. I will explain how PGP solves this problem . The main point is the usage of certificates. Such a certificate has about this meaning: I confirm, that the signed key belongs to the person mentioned in the User ID-field. . Additional I will point out how PGP determines which key is valid and which not. And also the way PGP handles the trust parameters. Why to build a web A problem in every public key system is the authentication of the public key. A example will show that: I get an electronicly signed email from Germano Caronni. To verify the signature of his mail, I need his public key . One way to get his key is to send a mail to [email protected] with the subject GET caronni@tik . But is this really his public key? Some other person could have created a key with the name Germano Carroni. This person could then send the key onto the keyservers. I have to check the authenticity of this public key to see if it is really from Germano Caronni. There are several possibilities to do so: I search his phone number in an official phone book and make a call. On the phone he gives me all his key properties . I have to know him to be able to identify him by his voice for this to work. If I can not identify him by his voice any one else could say he is Germano Caronni. I visit him, he shows me his picture identity card and gives me the key properties of his key. I search for another person which has confirmed that the key of Germano Caronni really belongs Germano. This will be explained in this text. The possibilities 1 and 2 are expensive and perhaps impossible. I probably will not visit someone in an other country to verify a signature. The third possibility is very easy because all can be done electronicly. There is even a tool to do so: the AT&T Path Server . There I can enter the key ID of my PGP key, which is DD934139. Additionally I enter the key ID of Germanos key, which is 7B7AE5E1. The Path Server gives me the following image as a result: The top circle is for my key DD934139, the key at the bottom of the picture is the key of Germano 7B7AE5E1. An arc from A to B stands for an electronic signature of the key B, done by A. I can read from the picture: Marcel Waldvogel confirms that the key 7B7AE5E1 really belongs to Germano Caronni, because he has signed the key of Germano. I have signed the key of Marcel Waldvogel and confirm therefore that the key AB96E86D belongs him. There is another path from my key to Germanos key via the ct'magazin and Hanno Wagner. To be able to verify such paths it is very important that everyone signs the key of others and submits these signatures to the keyservers. This way also others can benefit from such signatures. All these signatures build a kind of a web. Thats why this is called the web of trust. The paths between two keys have to be as short as possible. These paths are chains of confirmations. If the path between my key and the key of Germano gets longer I am less sure about the validity authenticity of his key. Paths which do not share a common key between the starting key and the last key are called disjoint paths . It is important to have as many disjoint paths as possible. The more disjoint paths between two keys the less the probability that someone can fake a confirmation chain by issuing a wrong signature. The validity of keys Every user of PGP has an own keyring with public keys. The keys which are valid are specially flaged in this keyring. A key is valid if it issigned ( certified) by the owner of the keyring orsigned (certified) by enough other key holders, which are trusted by the key owner. See next chapter: The trust . A key which is flagged as invalid in the keyring, will only be used with reservation by PGP:key certificates created with such a key are ignored. If a signed message is verified, there will be a warning that you can not be sure that the signing key belongs really to the person mentioned in the key. The trust You can gie any key in you keyring a certain trust level. This trustlevel tells PGP how much you trust key certificates done by this key. The lower the trust value the more key certificates are necessary to validate a key.trust values meaning of this trust valueuntrusted key certificates done with this key are ignoredmarginal At least 2 keys with marginal trust have to sign another (third) key to make this third key a valid key.complete At least one key with complete trust has to sign another key to make the key valid.ultimate If you have the secret key for a public key this key is ultimately trusted. Every key you sign with an ultimate trusted key becomes valid. The number of key certificates needed to make a key valid is taken from PGP 5.x (5.0 and 5.5) for Windows. With the Unix version of PGP you can set this values by yourself in the configuration file. The default values of PGP 2.6 are 2 and 4. To trust values and the validity of the keys can be determined as follows: PGP 5.x (Windows) PGPKeys.exe has two columns Validity and Trust where it shows the values graphicly. PGP 5.x (Unix) pgpk -c verifys all signatures and shows the values for every key in the keyring. PGP 2.x.x pgp -km shows the values pgp -kc verifys all signatures and should be called prior using pgp -km.

It is a cross between the Maltese and the Shih Tzu. The best way to determine the temperament of a mixed breed is to look up all breeds in the cross and know you can get any combination of any of the characteristics found in either breed. Not all of these designer hybrid dogs being bred are 50% purebred to 50% purebred. It is very common for breeders to breed multi-generation crosses. Recognition ACHC = American Canine Hybrid Club DBR = Designer Breed Registry DDKC = Designer Dogs Kennel Club DRA = Dog Registry of America, Inc. IDCR = International Designer Canine Registry ®Recognized Names American Canine Hybrid Club = Mal-Shi Designer Breed Registry = Mal Shi Designer Dogs Kennel Club = Malti Tzu International Designer Canine Registry ® = Mal-Shi Kona the Mal-Shi as a puppy at 4 months old— "This is our pup Kona. She is a daddy's girl but sweet and playful with everyone. She likes to pretend she is a cat . "Kona the Mal-Shi as a puppy at 4 months old"We found Braeden in an online ad; he was needing a home ASAP. It's his THIRD home. The previous owner had him for a month. He was 16 weeks old and he had no name, no collar, low contact with other dogs or people. He had Giardia, ear infections, underweight, and fleas...he was perfect! "He looked drunk and Irish...so I took one look at him and said " you look like a Braeden." It's taken a long time for Braeden to attach and trust. He's still learning how to play with other puppies. Now at 7 months he's more willing to sit on my lap for a few more minutes. Loves to play fetch and loves a good stick, meeting new people and new dogs. "At eight months, Braeden weighs 10.4 lbs., is 17" long and 10" tall at the shoulder. Braeden has characteristics of a Shih Tzu: tri-olor hair, tipped ears, longer body and that cute hair above his nose that points up. From the Maltese, Braeden got straighter thin hair, a longer nose and no under-bite common to many Shih Tzus. His nose seems larger than a Maltese. He can be very fluffy and gets compliments on his hair almost every day. However, owning a Mal-Shi without the "puppy cut" is a commitment to grooming. Braeden is brushed in the morning and before bedtime. Sometimes an extra session is needed to gently work on knots that easily occur on his underside. When brushed every day, he's never gotten matted. You just have to keep up with it. He gets a daily dose of Angels Eyes to keep tear stains, which are very common to both the Shih Tzu and the Maltese. "His temperament is more like the Shih Tzu. He's a hearty player with other dogs. He loves to run and wrestle energetically with other Shi Tzus. He's not a lap dog. He loves meeting new dogs and especially loves to meet new people. Like most breeds, it's very important that he gets exercise, both physical and mental. He was easy to potty train using potty pads. But he quickly transitioned to going outside. If he has an accident it's between 7-9pm where I haven't watched how much water he drank at dinner and in the evening. He's been quick to learn to sit, stay, lie down, shake, fetch, leave it and drop it . "Braeden the tan and white Mal-Shi as a puppy at 10 weeks old"This is Chewy, our Mal-Shi at 5 months old. Chewy is very sweet and playful. His hair grows fast and he is somewhat difficult to potty train, but he is such a sweetie. A little timid, but loves to have his belly rubbed! "Oreo the black and white Mal-Shi puppy at 12 weeks old, weighing 3 pounds Oreo the black and white Mal-Shi puppy at 19 months old, weighing 7 pounds Malshi puppies (Maltese x Shih-Tzu mix)—Rocky weighing 2 pounds (seven weeks) and Muffy weighing four pounds (four months). "Jaxon is a Maltese / Shih Tzu hybrid dog. He is age 4½ months in this photo. He loves attention and people, chewing on carpets, kissing his favorite cat (Bella), short walks and treats. He is very outgoing and friendly to everyone and his mommy says he has more of a Shih Tzu temperament than a Maltese. "Rocca the white Mal-Shi at 7 months old— "Rocca's mother was a Maltese and her father was a Shih Tzu. I was notified after she was born and I went to see the litter. As soon as I saw her I knew she was the one for me.

Latissimus Dorsi

Latissimus Dorsi Latissimus Dorsi derived from latin meaning ‘broadest [muscle] of the back’ (latus meaning ‘broad’, latissimus meaning ‘broadest’ and dorsum meaning the back)The Latissimus Dorsi Muscle (also referred to in short as the Lats) is one of the largest surface muscle located on the back on either side of the back bone. It is a broad muscle that sweeps diagonally upwards across the back. The Latissimus Dorsi Muscle’s origin attachment point is the lowers spinal, the lower ribs and lumber and its insertion point of attachment is on the front side top of the Humerus, specifically the bicipital groove, which is achieved by its tendons wrapping around the underside of the humerus. Recognized for it’s large flat V shape it is a very powerful muscle that is chiefly responsible for the the movement of the shoulders even though it is located on the back of the torso. When flexed the Latissimus Dorsi Muscle achieves movement of the arm in three different ways;1 Extension: The shoulders are opened which results in the movement of the arm in a backwards direction. 2 Adduction: The shoulder and arm is brought closer to the mid-line of the body. 3. Medial Rotation: The arm is rotated inwardly. With the shoulder in a fixed position, the Latissimus Dorsi is also responsible for lifting the mid section of the torso in an upwards direction. It is the main muscle used when we participate in the chin up/pull up exercise. The Latissimus Dorsi also assists with breathing with the forced expiration as well as deep inspiration of breathe from the lungs. This picture shows clearly the Large V shaped Latissimus Dorsi (Lats) Muscles so sort after by Body Builders.

[1] While sharia is believed by Muslims to represent divine law as revealed in the Quran and the Sunnah (the teachings and practices of the Islamic prophet Muhammad ), fiqh is the human understanding of the sharia [2] — sharia expanded and developed by interpretation ( ijtihad) of the Quran and Sunnah by Islamic jurists ( ulama) [2] and implemented by the rulings ( fatwa) of jurists on questions presented to them. Thus conceptually, whereas sharia is considered immutable and infallible, fiqh is considered fallible and changeable. Fiqh deals with the observance of rituals, morals and social legislation in Islam. In the modern era, there are four prominent schools ( madh'hab) of fiqh within Sunni practice, plus two (or three) within Shi'a practice. A person trained in fiqh is known as a faqīh (plural fuqaha ). [3]Figuratively, fiqh means knowledge about Islamic legal rulings from their sources. Thus the figurative definition of fiqh is taken from its literal one in the sense that deriving religious rulings from their sources necessitates the mujtahid (an individual who exercises ijtihad) to have a deep understanding in the different discussions of jurisprudence. A faqīh must look deep down into a matter and not suffice himself with just the apparent meaning, and a person who only knows the appearance of a matter is not qualified as a faqīh. [1]On the studies of fiqh, it is traditionally divided into Uṣūl al-fiqh ( principles of Islamic jurisprudence, lit. the roots of fiqh), the methods of legal interpretation and analysis, and Furūʿ al-fiqh (lit. the branches of fiqh), the elaboration of rulings on the basis of these principles. [4] [5] Furūʿ al-fiqh is the product of the application of Uṣūl al-fiqh and the total product of human efforts at understanding the divine will. A hukm (plural aḥkām) is a particular ruling in a given case. Contents [ hide ]1 Etymology2 History2.1 Diagram of early scholars3 Components3.1 Component categories3.2 Methodologies of jurisprudence3.3 Fields of jurisprudence3.4 Schools of jurisprudence4 Possible links with Western law5 See also6 Notes7 References8 Further reading Etymology [ edit]The word fiqh is an Arabic term meaning "deep understanding" [6]: 470 or "full comprehension". Technically it refers to the body of Islamic law extracted from detailed Islamic sources (which are studied in the principles of Islamic jurisprudence) and the process of gaining knowledge of Islam through jurisprudence. The historian Ibn Khaldun describes fiqh as "knowledge of the rules of God which concern the actions of persons who own themselves connected to obey the law respecting what is required ( wajib ), sinful ( haraam ), recommended ( mandūb ), disapproved ( makrūh) or neutral ( mubah )". [7] This definition is consistent amongst the jurists. In Modern Standard Arabic, fiqh has come to mean jurisprudence in general, be it Islamic or secular. It is thus possible to speak of Chief Justice John Roberts as an expert in the common law fiqh of the United States, or of Egyptian legal scholar Abd El-Razzak El-Sanhuri as an expert in the civil law fiqh of Egypt. History [ edit]Main article: Sharia Further information: Islamic economics in the world The history of Islamic jurisprudence is "customarily divided into eight periods". [8]the first period ending with the death of Muhammad in 11 AH. [8]second period "characterized by personal interpretations" of the canon by the Sahabah or companions of Muhammad, lasting until 50 A. H. [8]from 50 AH until the early second century AH there was competition between a "a traditionalist approach to jurisprudence" in western Arabia where Islam was revealed and a "rationalist approach in Iraq". [8]the "golden age of classical Islamic jurisprudence" from the "early second to the mid-fourth century when the eight "most significant" schools of Sunni and Shi'i jurisprudence emerged." [8]from the mid-fourth century to mid-seventh AH Islamic jurisprudence was "limited to elaborations within the main juristic schools". [8]the "dark age" of Islamic jurisprudence stretched from the fall of Baghdad in the mid-seventh AH (1258 CE) to 1293 AH/1876 CE. In 1293 AH (1876 CE) the Ottomans codified Hanafi jurisprudence in the Majallah el-Ahkam-i-Adliya. Several "juristic revival movements" influenced by "exposure to Western legal and technological progress" followed until the mid-20th century CE. Muhammad Abduh and Abd El-Razzak El-Sanhuri were products of this era. [8]The most recent era has been that of the " Islamic revival ", which has been "predicated on rejection of Western social and legal advances" and the development of specifically Islamic states, social sciences, economics, and finance. [8]The formative period of Islamic jurisprudence stretches back to the time of the early Muslim communities. In this period, jurists were more concerned with issues of authority and teaching than with theory and methodology. [9]Progress in theory and methodology happened with the coming of the early Muslim jurist Muhammad ibn Idris ash-Shafi`i (767–820), who codified the basic principles of Islamic jurisprudence in his book ar-Risālah. The book details the four roots of law ( Qur'an, Sunnah, ijma, and qiyas) while specifying that the primary Islamic texts (the Qur'an and the hadith) be understood according to objective rules of interpretation derived from scientific study of the Arabic language. [10]Secondary sources of law were developed and refined over the subsequent centuries, consisting primarily of juristic preference ( istihsan ), laws of the previous prophets ( shara man qablana ), continuity ( istishab ), extended analogy ( maslaha mursala ), blocking the means ( sadd al-dhari'ah ), custome urf and saying of a companion ( qawl al-sahabi ). [11]Diagram of early scholars [ edit]The Quran set the rights, the responsibilities and the rules for people and for societies to adhere to, like not dealing in interest. Muhammad then provided an example, which is recorded in the hadith books, showing people how he practically implemented these rules in a society. After the passing of Muhammad, there was a need for jurists, to decide on new legal matters where there is no such ruling in the Quran or the Hadith, example of Islamic prophet Muhammad regarding a similar case. [12] [13]In the years proceeding Muhammad, the community in Madina continued to use the same rules. People were familiar with the practice of Muhammad and therefore continued to use the same rules. The scholars appearing in the diagram below were taught by Muhammad's companions, many of whom settled in Madina. [14]Muwatta [15] by Malik ibn Anas was written as a consensus of the opinion, of these scholars. [16] [17] [18] The Muwatta [15] by Malik ibn Anas quotes 13 hadiths from Imam Jafar al-Sadiq. [19]Much of the knowledge we have about Muhammad is narrated through Aisha the wife of Muhammad, also a renowned scholar of her time. Aisha raised and taught her nephew Qasim ibn Muhammad ibn Abu Bakr after her brother Muhammad ibn Abu Bakr was killed by the Syrians. Qasim ibn Muhammad ibn Abu Bakrs mother was from Alis family and Qasims daughter Farwah bint al-Qasim was married to Muhammad al-Baqir and was the mother of Jafar al-Sadiq. Therefore, Qasim ibn Muhammad ibn Abu Bakr was the grand son of Abu Bakr the first caliph and the grand father of Jafar al-Sadiq whose views the twelver Shias follow. The twelver Shia do not accept Abu Bakr as the first caliph but do accept his great-great-grandson Jafar al-Sadiq. Aishas also taught her nephew Urwah ibn Zubayr. He then taught his son Hisham ibn Urwah, who was the main teacher of Malik ibn Anas whose views many Sunni follow and also taught Jafar al-Sadiq. Qasim ibn Muhammad ibn Abu Bakr, Hisham ibn Urwah and Muhammad al-Baqir taught Zayd ibn Ali, Jafar al-Sadiq, Abu Hanifa, and Malik ibn Anas. Imam Jafar al-Sadiq, Imam Abu Hanifa and Malik ibn Anas worked together in Al-Masjid an-Nabawi in Medina. Along with Qasim ibn Muhammad ibn Abu Bakr, Muhammad al-Baqir, Zayd ibn Ali and over 70 other leading jurists and scholars. Al-Shafi‘i was taught by Malik ibn Anas. Ahmad ibn Hanbal was taught by Al-Shafi‘i. Muhammad al-Bukhari travelled every where collecting hadith and his father Ismail ibn Ibrahim was a student of Malik ibn Anas [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] [ show]v t e Early Islamic scholars In the books actually written by these original jurists and scholars, there are very few theological and judicial differences between them. Imam Ahmad rejected the writing down and codifying of the religious rulings he gave. They knew that they might have fallen into error in some of their judgements and stated this clearly. They never introduced their rulings by saying, "Here, this judgement is the judgement of God and His prophet." [25] There is also very little text actually written down by Jafar al-Sadiq himself. They all give priority to the Qur'an and the Hadith (the practice of Muhammad). They felt that the Quran and the Hadith, the example of Muhammad provided people with almost everything they needed. "This day I have perfected for you your religion and completed My favor upon you and have approved for you Islam as religion" Quran 5:3. [26]These scholars did not distinguish between each other. They were not Sunni or Shia. They felt that they were following the religion of Abraham as described in the Quran "Say: Allah speaks the truth; so follow the religion of Abraham, the upright one. And he was not one of the polytheists" (Qur'an 3:95). Most of the differences are regarding Sharia laws devised through Ijtihad where there is no such ruling in the Quran or the Hadiths of Islamic prophet Muhammad regarding a similar case. [25] As these jurists went to new areas, they were pragmatic and continued to use the same ruling as was given in that area during pre-Islamic times, if the population felt comfortable with it, it was just and they used Ijtihad to deduce that it did not conflict with the Quran or the Hadith. As explained in the Muwatta [15] by Malik ibn Anas. [16] This made it easier for the different communities to integrate into the Islamic State and assisted in the quick expansion of the Islamic State. To reduce the divergence, ash-Shafi'i proposed giving priority to the Qur'an and the Hadith (the practice of Muhammad) and only then look at the consensus of the Muslim jurists ( ijma) and analogical reasoning ( qiyas ). [16] This then resulted in jurists like Muhammad al-Bukhari [27] dedicating their lives to the collection of the correct Hadith, in books like Sahih al-Bukhari. Sahih translates as authentic or correct. They also felt that Muhammad's judgement was more impartial and better than their own. These original jurists and scholars also acted as a counterbalance to the rulers. When they saw injustice, all these scholars spoke out against it. As the state expanded outside Madina, the rights of the different communities, as they were constituted in the Constitution of Medina still applied. The Quran also gave additional rights to the citizens of the state and these rights were also applied. Ali, Hassan and Hussein ibn Ali gave their allegiance to the first three caliphs because they abided by these conditions. Later Ali the fourth caliph wrote in a letter "I did not approach the people to get their oath of allegiance but they came to me with their desire to make me their Amir (ruler). I did not extend my hands towards them so that they might swear the oath of allegiance to me but they themselves extended their hands towards me". [28] But later as fate would have it ( Predestination in Islam) when Yazid I, an oppressive ruler took power, Hussein ibn Ali the grand son of Muhammad felt that it was a test from God for him and his duty to confront him. Then Abd Allah ibn al-Zubayr, Qasim ibn Muhammad ibn Abu Bakrs cousin confronted the Umayyad rulers after Hussein ibn Ali was betrayed by the people of Kufa and killed by Syrian Roman Army now under the control of the Yazid I the Umayyad ruler. [29] Abd Allah ibn al-Zubayr then took on the Umayyad's and expelled their forces from Hijaz and Iraq. But then his forces were depleted in Iraq, trying to stop the Khawarij. The Ummayad's then moved in. After a lengthy campaign, on his last hour Abd Allah ibn al-Zubayr asked his mother Asma' bint Abu Bakr the daughter of Abu Bakr the first caliph for advice. Asma' bint Abu Bakr replied to her son, she said: [30] "You know better in your own self, that if you are upon the truth and you are calling towards the truth go forth, for people more honourable than you have been killed and if you are not upon the truth, then what an evil son you are and you have destroyed yourself and those who are with you. If you say, that if you are upon the truth and you will be killed at the hands of others, then you will not truly be free". Abd Allah ibn al-Zubayr left and was later also killed and crucified by the Syrian Roman Army now under the control of the Umayyads and led by Hajjaj. Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr the son of Abu Bakr the first caliph and raised by Ali the fourth caliph was also killed by the Ummayads. [31] Aisha then raised and taught his son Qasim ibn Muhammad ibn Abu Bakr who later taught his grandson Jafar al-Sadiq. During the early Ummayad period, there was more community involvement. The Quran and Muhammad's example was the main source of law after which the community decided. If it worked for the community, was just and did not conflict with the Quran and the example of Muhammad, it was accepted. This made it easier for the different communities, with Roman, Persian, Central Asia and North African backgrounds to integrate into the Islamic State and that assisted in the quick expansion of the Islamic State. The scholars in Madina were consulted on the more complex judicial issues. The Sharia and the official more centralized schools of fiqh developed later, during the time of the Abbasids. [32]Components [ edit]Legal systems of the world The sources of fiqh in order of importance arethe Qur'an Hadith Ijma, i.e. collective reasoning and consensus amongst authoritative Muslims of a particular generation, and its interpretation by Islamic scholars. Qiyas, i.e. analogy which is deployed if Ijma or historic collective reasoning on the issue is not available. [33]The Qur'an gives clear instructions on many issues, such as how to perform the ritual purification ( wudu) before the obligatory daily prayers ( salat ), but on other issues, some Muslims believe the Qur'an alone is not enough to make things clear. For example, the Qur'an states one needs to engage in daily prayers ( salat) and fast ( sawm) during the month of Ramadan but Muslims believe they need further instructions on how to perform these duties. Details about these issues can be found in the traditions of Muhammad, so Qur'an and Sunnah are in most cases the basis for ( Shariah ). Some topics are without precedent in Islam's early period. In those cases, Muslim jurists ( Fuqaha) try to arrive at conclusions by other means. Sunni jurists use historical consensus of the community ( Ijma ); a majority in the modern era also use analogy ( Qiyas) and weigh the harms and benefits of new topics ( Istislah ), and a plurality utilizes juristic preference ( Istihsan ). The conclusions arrived at with the aid of these additional tools constitute a wider array of laws than the Sharia consists of, and is called fiqh. Thus, in contrast to the sharia, fiqh is not regarded as sacred and the schools of thought have differing views on its details, without viewing other conclusions as sacrilegious. This division of interpretation in more detailed issues has resulted in different schools of thought ( madh'hab ). This wider concept of Islamic jurisprudence is the source of a range of laws in different topics that guide Muslims in everyday life. Component categories [ edit]Islamic jurisprudence ( fiqh) covers two main areas: Rules in relation to actions, and,Rules in relation to circumstances surrounding actions. These types of rules can also fall into two groups: Worship ( Ibadaat)Dealings & Transactions (with people) ( Mu`amalaat)Rules in relation to actions (' amaliyya — عملية) or " decision types " comprise: Obligation ( fardh)Recommendation ( mustahabb)Permissibility ( mubah)Disrecommendation ( makrooh)Prohibition ( haraam)Rules in relation to circumstances ( wadia') comprise: Condition ( shart)Cause ( sabab)Preventor ( mani)Permit / Enforced ( rukhsah, azeemah)Valid / Corrupt / Invalid ( sahih, fasid, batil)In time / Deferred / Repeat ( adaa, qadaa, i'ada)Methodologies of jurisprudence [ edit]Main article: Usul al-fiqh The modus operandi of the Muslim jurist is known as usul al-fiqh ("principles of jurisprudence"). There are different approaches to the methodology used in jurisprudence to derive Islamic law from the primary sources. The main methodologies are those of the Sunni, Shi'a and Ibadi denominations. While both Sunni and Shi'ite are divided into smaller sub-schools, the differences among the Shi'ite schools is considerably greater. Ibadites only follow a single school without divisions. Fatawa While using court decisions as legal precedents and case law are central to Western law, the importance of the institution of fatawa (non-binding answers by Islamic legal scholars to legal questions) has been called "central to the development" of Islamic jurisprudence. [34] This is in part because of a "vacuum" in the other source of Islamic law, qada` (legal rulings by state appointed Islamic judges) after the fall of the last caliphate the Ottoman Empire. [8] While the practice in Islam dates back to the time of Muhammad, according to at least one source (Muhammad El-Gamal), it is "modeled after the Roman system of responsa ," and gives the questioner "decisive primary-mover advantage in choosing he question and its wording." [8]Arguments for and against reform Each school ( madhhab) reflects a unique al-urf or culture (a cultural practice that was influenced by traditions), that the classical jurists themselves lived in, when rulings were made. Some suggest that the discipline of isnad, which developed to validate hadith made it relatively easy to record and validate also the rulings of jurists. This, in turn, made them far easier to imitate ( taqlid) than to challenge in new contexts. The argument is, the schools have been more or less frozen for centuries, and reflect a culture that simply no longer exists. Traditional scholars hold that religion is there to regulate human behavior and nurture people's moral side and since human nature has not fundamentally changed since the beginning of Islam a call to modernize the religion is essentially one to relax all laws and institutions. Early shariah had a much more flexible character, and some modern Muslim scholars believe that it should be renewed, and that the classical jurists should lose special status. This would require formulating a new fiqh suitable for the modern world, e.g. as proposed by advocates of the Islamization of knowledge, which would deal with the modern context. This modernization is opposed by most conservative ulema. Traditional scholars hold that the laws are contextual and consider circumstance such as time, place and culture, the principles they are based upon are universal such as justice, equality and respect. Many Muslim scholars argue that even though technology may have advanced, the fundamentals of human life have not. Fields of jurisprudence [ edit]Criminal Economics Etiquette Hygienical Inheritance Marital Military Political Theological Schools of jurisprudence [ edit]Main article: Madhhab There are several schools of fiqh thought ( Arabic: مذهب maḏhab; pl. مذاهب maḏāhib)Map of the Muslim world with the main madh'habs. The schools of Sunni Islam are each named by students of the classical jurist who taught them. The Sunni schools (and where they are commonly found) are Hanafi ( Turkey, the Balkans, Central Asia, Indian subcontinent, China and Egypt)Maliki ( North Africa, West Africa and several of the Arab states of the Persian Gulf)Shafi'i ( Kurdistan, Indonesia, Malaysia, Egypt, East Africa, Yemen, and southern parts of India)Hanbali ( Saudi Arabia) see Wahhabism Zahiri (minority communities in Morocco and Pakistan)Qurtubi No longer exists Laythi No longer exists but there are a few texts left of it. The schools of Shia Islam comprise: Ja'fari ( Twelver Shia: Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, etc. )Zaydi ( Yemen)Entirely separate from both the Sunni and Shia traditions, Khawarij Islam has evolved its own distinct school. Ibadi ( Oman)These schools share many of their rulings, but differ on the particular hadiths they accept as authentic and the weight they give to analogy or reason ( qiyas) in deciding difficulties. Possible links with Western law [ edit]Main article: Sharia: Classic Islamic law A number of important legal institutions were developed by Muslim jurists during the classical period of Islam, known as the Islamic Golden Age. One such institution was the Hawala, an early informal value transfer system, which is mentioned in texts of Islamic jurisprudence as early as the 8th century. Hawala itself later influenced the development of the agency in common law and in civil laws such as the aval in French law and the avallo in Italian law. [35] The "European commenda " (Islamic Qirad) used in European civil law may have also originated from Islamic law. [36]The Waqf in Islamic law, which developed during the 7th–9th centuries, bears a notable resemblance to the trusts in the English trust law. [37] For example, every Waqf was required to have a waqif (settlor), mutawillis (trustee), qadi (judge) and beneficiaries. [38] The trust law developed in England at the time of the Crusades, during the 12th and 13th centuries, was introduced by Crusaders who may have been influenced by the Waqf institutions they came across in the Middle East. [39] [40]The Islamic lafif was a body of twelve members drawn from the neighbourhood and sworn to tell the truth, who were bound to give a unanimous verdict, about matters "which they had personally seen or heard, binding on the judge, to settle the truth concerning facts in a case, between ordinary people, and obtained as of right by the plaintiff ." The only characteristic of the English jury which the Islamic lafif lacked was the "judicial writ directing the jury to be summoned and directing the bailiff to hear its recognition." According to Professor John Makdisi, "no other institution in any legal institution studied to date shares all of these characteristics with the English jury." It is thus likely that the concept of the lafif may have been introduced to England by the Normans, who conquered both England and the Emirate of Sicily, and then evolved into the modern English jury. [36]Several other fundamental common law institutions may have been adapted from similar legal institutions in Islamic law and jurisprudence, and introduced to England by the Normans after the Norman conquest of England and the Emirate of Sicily, and by Crusaders during the Crusades. In particular, the "royal English contract protected by the action of debt is identified with the Islamic Aqd, the English assize of novel disseisin is identified with the Islamic Istihqaq, and the English jury is identified with the Islamic lafif ." Other English legal institutions such as "the scholastic method, the licence to teach ", the " law schools known as Inns of Court in England and Madrasas in Islam" and the "European commenda " (Islamic Qirad) may have also originated from Islamic law. [36] The methodology of legal precedent and reasoning by analogy ( Qiyas) are also similar in both the Islamic and common law systems. [41] These influences have led some scholars to suggest that Islamic law may have laid the foundations for "the common law as an integrated whole".

How Gout And Alcohol Are Related
|
How Gout And Alcohol Are Related Alcohol, especially beer, is a known trigger for gout. What You’re Drinking Can Hurt You Many people just don’t realize how gout and alcohol are related, but what you drink has a strong influence on your health, including increasing incidents of gout. It’s not just gout and alcohol that are a bad mix either, some non-alcoholic drinks can cause gout too. Here’s the scoop on how what you drink can hurt you…First though, let’s just remind ourselves of what gout is so that you can have a better understanding of the link between gout and alcohol: This very painful condition is brought about when microscopic, needle-like, uric acid crystals are deposited in your joints and surrounding tissue. And you don’t have to be a doctor to understand how anything of substance getting into joints is going to cause you problems!These crystals form out of high uric acid levels in your bloodstream, so anything you can do to keep your acid levels below the crystal precipitation point will help to prevent gout flares. Uric acid is actually a byproduct of the metabolizing of chemical compounds called ‘purines’ which exist in our body cells, in our foods, and in some drinks, at varying concentrations. Your kidneys normally process and excrete excess uric acid out of your body via urine. But if there’s too much uric acid being produced for them to handle, you can end up with high uric acid. So the more high-purine food and drink you consume the higher the risk of gout attacks. Unfortunately many drinks, such as beer, are relatively high in purines that, when regularly consumed, set your body up for gout. Not only that, alcohol can interfere with your kidneys’ ability to process uric acid effectively. And it may be worse for you if you are overweight and/or have high blood pressure – which many regular drinkers are and have – since studies have highlighted these as being very high risk gout factors. Good Ole’ Beer Beer, to many people, is a staple of life. It’s ice-cold and refreshing, as well as a great way for people to share good times together. Unfortunately, beer also contains a high amount of purines, which are known to contribute to problems with gout. In fact, according to a recent study, one of the largest of its kind, drinking just one beer a day may mean you’re nearly twice as likely (200%) to have gout than someone who avoids beer completely. Sad news for one of our favorite alcoholic beverages. Low-Alcohol and Non-Alcoholic Beers But what about low and non-alcoholic beers? Low / non-alcoholic beer is actually properly made beer that has most or all of its alcohol removed just before the bottling, canning or kegging stage. Here are some interesting facts from Wikipedia:“Low-alcohol beer (also called light beer, non-alcoholic beer, small beer, small ale, or near-beer) is beer with low alcohol content or no alcohol, which aim to reproduce the taste of beer without the inebriating effects of standard alcoholic brews. Most low-alcohol beers are lagers, but there are some low-alcohol ales. In the United States, beverages containing less than 0.5% alcohol by volume (ABV) were legally called non-alcoholic, according to the now-defunct Volstead Act. Because of its very low alcohol content, non-alcoholic beer may be legally sold to minors in many American states. In the United Kingdom, the following definitions apply by law (correct as of May 2007): No alcohol or alcohol-free: not more than 0.05% ABVDealcoholised: over 0.05% but less than 0.5% ABVLow-alcohol: not more than 1.2% ABVIn some parts of the European Union, beer must contain no more than 0.5% ABV if it is labelled ‘alcohol-free’. In Australia, the term “light beer” refers to any beer with less than 3% alcohol. Spain is the main consumer and producer of low-alcohol beer.” More …You can see that the definitions of low-alcohol, alcohol-free, and non-alcoholic, etc. differ according to where you live. Overall though, the fact is that there’s very little alcohol in these types of beers. Apart from being good for your general health (compared to real beer) it also means that there’s little or no alcohol to disrupt your kidneys’ ability to manage your uric acid. And the purine content is relatively low compared to real beers. All-in-all, these beers are much less of a risk. A word of caution though: this doesn’t mean you can go out and knock back bottle after bottle, because the alcohol and purine content will add-up. But, in my experience, their taste isn’t nearly as good as the real thing; so why bother at all? Wines and Spirits The study mentioned earlier – that found that a regular beer drinker was twice as likely to have gout compared to someone who didn’t drink – found that regular spirit/liquor drinkers had a higher risk of gout too (60%), but less than beer drinkers (200%). This is interesting because spirits have much higher alcohol levels. The researchers put this down to the higher purine content of beer. The study also found that people who drank a moderate amount of wine per day had no increased risk. No one really knows why this should be the case, but the researchers thought that there may be some ‘protective’ element in the makeup of wine. Mixed Alcoholic Drinks Since alcohol disrupts your kidneys’ ability to manage uric acid, even mixed drinks can be problematic. When your kidneys aren’t flushing acids, they can back up in your bloodstream. If you happen to enjoy mixed drinks, alternate between alcoholic and “virgin” servings to reduce your intake. Be warned though, as any amount of alcohol can instigate an attack of gout, thus cutting down may not be enough. Soda If you deal with gout and drink soda, you now have yet another reason to quit reaching for the sugary beverage. Research has established an undeniable link between the fructose – often in the form of high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) – in soda and gout, showing that your risk is doubled and particularly dangerous if you are female. Soda is also loaded with empty calories, so if you’re trying to manage your weight, find a substitute beverage ASAP. Fruit Juice Even natural fruit juices are often high in fructose, so they too are considered poor choices for people battling gout. If you love orange juice and simply can’t do without your morning glass, consider making it a small one. Also, be very wary of opting for mixed alcoholic beverages which contain juice, such as a Screwdriver or Cosmopolitan, because you’ll be getting a double dose of grout aggravation. The Final Verdict On Gout And Alcohol Gout is such a painful condition to endure, while alcohol is easy to avoid. It’s only logical to conclude that the two do not go well together at all. Keep a list of everything that may contribute to your gout, and make a point of avoiding the things on it, even if you enjoy them. Medical science has clearly established the link between gout and alcohol, especially beer and, to a lesser extent, spirits/liquors. These are best avoided or, at the very least, reduced considerably. However, according to the research the odd glass of wine with your meal should not pose a problem; although everybody’s case is different, so you need to tread carefully. Additionally, it’s important that you are aware of the other beverages that will cause issues with gout. Next time you’re thirsty, try reaching for nature’s best solution instead; refreshingly pure water. If you found this article useful please leave a comment below and share it.

Mission Statement MORE »The Posse model benefits both students and college campuses and is rooted in the belief that a small, diverse group of talented students ─ a posse ─ carefully selected and trained, can serve as a catalyst for enhanced individual and community development. As the United States becomes an increasingly multicultural society, Posse believes that its leaders must reflect this rich demographic mix and, further, that the key to a promising future for our nation resides in the ability of strong leaders from diverse backgrounds to develop consensus solutions to complex social problems. One of the primary aims of the Posse program is to train these leaders of tomorrow. Each component of the Posse program works toward one or more of the following three goals: To expand the pool from which top colleges and universities can recruit outstanding young leaders from diverse backgrounds. To help these institutions build more interactive campus environments so they can become more welcoming for students from all backgrounds. To ensure that Posse Scholars persist in their academic studies and graduate so they can take on leadership positions in the workforce.

We kept changing our route, then I called the St. Regis folks, who worked hard to get us a spot for two days. All of the people who work in the office are very helpful. Since we couldn't get a site with sewer hookups I used their showers, and I have never seen such immaculate bathrooms! They looked brand new every day. This part of Montana is in a drought so the grass is sketchy around most of the sites. Some sites do have nice grass and shade. Our Verizon worked very well. They have a nice dog walk through some woods. Road noise from I-90 is constant, although we could sleep with our windows open at night. For us, it was a good spot to stop for a couple of nights.

Corrective Action If the green light isn't flickering, check the clutch connection. Also, try powering the clutch right from the battery with the engine running. See if it still cuts in and out. Follow Test Procedure 1Problem: The green light on the control box may flicker. Possible Cause Loose connection at: Corrective Action If it does, check the resistance between clutch wire (unplugged) and the battery's negative terminal. The resistance should be between 2.3 - 2.5 ohms. Try wiggling the clutch wire while testing to check for an intermittent contact. If it does not, work from the Key-Switched 12V source, checking each connection. Repair any loose connections found. Probing connection points with an analog voltage meter should show any intermittent connections. Alternatively, a test light may flicker with an intermittent contact.· · · · · · ·Clutch, Interface cable, Key-switched 12V, Park Brake, DDC, Ground, or the green connector between the Switching Box and Low-Profile Control Panel. Problem: The clutch engages and disengages while VR system is running. Possible Cause Failed component in Control Box, Low-Profile Control Panel, Switching Box, or DDC. The engine may run "rough" when the system is on, due to the throttle power turning on and off with the clutch. Also visit Ogura for additional clutch troubleshooting. Corrective Action Note: An Analog meter has a needle that moves with voltage, and will flicker as the voltage changes, whereas A modern digital meter samples the voltage many times per second and averages these values. This can result in intermittent contact problems being missed. Problem: Compressor does not run. Possible Cause Corrective Action Failed component in Control Box, Isolate the Park Brake connection: Disconnect Low-Profile Control Panel, the black interface cable wire connected to the Switching Box, or DDC. Park Brake. Connect it directly to ground. Run Oil temperature too high.the system. Proceed to next step if problem persists. Isolate the DDC: If it is an automatic, remove the DDC from the system, and ground the black Interface Cable wire. Run the system. Proceed to next step if problem persists. Isolate the Throttle: For electronic throttles, if possible, disconnect the red throttle wire to bypass the throttle. Run the system. Proceed to the next step if problem persists. If none of the above corrects the problem, the problem should be isolated to the control box in the system. Try replacing the Control Box, or the Switching Box and Low-Profile Control Panel as a pair. Turn compressor off, allow to cool for 30 minutes and restart. Follow Test Procedure 1Loss of 12 Volt signal at the clutch, blown fuse, broken wires or a failed switch. Problem: No power to the clutch Possible Cause Fuse burned or wires damaged Also visit Ogura for additional clutch troubleshooting. Corrective Action Check power at the clutch, replace fuse if necessary, replace broken wires or failed switch. Problem: Engine stalls when the compressor is activated. Possible Cause System is under pressure. Blow down valve not working RPM setting too low or throttle not set correctly. Corrective Action Allow 10 seconds for blowdown Replace blow-down valve. Readjust RPM and throttle settings for optimum operation. Problem: Objectionable noise level. Possible Cause Excessive gear wear Maximum RPM setting higher than necessary to meet air demand requirements. Operating with the hood open Corrective Action Contact the nearest dealer to replace compressor/gearbox assembly. Reduce maximum RPM settings. Close the hood. Problem: Bad clutch ground Possible Cause Open clutch stator windings. Also visit Ogura for additional clutch troubleshooting. Corrective Action With 12 V applied to the clutch check for voltage between the clutch stator housing and the engine. If voltage is present, ground the stator. With compressor switch off and clutch wire disconnected, check resistance between the input wire and ground. Resistance (less lead resistance) should be 2.5 ohms to 3.0 ohms. If outside this range, replace the stator. Problem: The engine may run "rough" when the system is on, due to the throttle power turning on and off with the clutch. Possible Cause Loose connection at: Clutch, Interface cable, Keyswitched 12V, Park Brake, DDC, Ground, or the green connector between the Switching Box and Low-Profile Control Panel. Corrective Action With power off, disconnect the Interface Connector (white connector). Check to make sure all the pins and sockets are in the same position in the connectors, and that there is no dirt or signs of arcing on them. Repair / replace as needed. For systems with the Low-Profile Control Panel and Switching Box, check the green connector between them as above. Recheck system. If condition persists, try to isolate the problem to one component (and replace it as needed): Isolate Power Source issues: Disconnect the key-switched 12V wire and connect it directly to the battery. Run the system. Proceed to next step if problem persists. Isolate Grounding issues: Measure the resistance from the green ground connection on the interface cable to the battery's negative terminal. This should be less than 1ohm. Run the system. Proceed to the next step if problem persists. Problem: Red lamp pushed part way out of control panel. This could result in the relay operating inconsistently or not operating at all. Possible Cause Factory assembly defect. Corrective Action Back cover could be removed and the tab on the red lamp that is touching the relay could be bent carefully so that the Tab no longer interferes with the relay. Problem: Power fuse blows. Possible Cause Short to ground in the control circuit. Incorrect fuse. Incorrect wiring. Corrective Action Locate and correct short or replace control panel. Install correct OEM fuse. Repair wiring according to wiring diagram. Problem: Oil level is too low. Possible Cause Excessive oil carry-over Parked on uneven ground Corrective Action Inlet valve. Park on level ground and check level again. Add oil as necessary. Check level at the sight glass and add as necessary Problem: Frequent compressor over-temperature shutdowns. Possible Cause Discharge temperature probe failure. High ambient temperatures. Low oil level. Restriction in the compressor oil lines. Compressor oil filter plugged Heat exchanger not functioning or is fouled with deposits. Engine cooling system failure (engine temperature will be high). Engine fan clutch slipping.

It was first synthesized in the United States around 1945.

(November 2016) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)A 10-mg oral capsule of dicyclomine hydrochloride, manufactured by Mylan Dicyclomine is used to treat intestinal hypermotility, [ citation needed] and the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome [1] (also known as spastic colon [ citation needed] ). It relieves muscle spasms in the gastrointestinal tract; while the mechanism or mechanisms of dicycloverine action were, as of 2004, [ needs update] unestablished, the drug "appears to act as nonselective smooth muscle relaxant." [1] The drug presents adverse events that are "manifestations of pharmacologic effects at muscarinic - cholinergic receptors," events which are "usually... reversible when therapy is discontinued." [1]In the UK, it is an ingredient of a multiple-ingredient preparation, with an antiflatulent ( simethicone) and two antacids, under the trade name Kolanticon. [ citation needed] In India, it is compounded with paracetamol (USA: acetaminophen) under the trade name Cyclopam. [2] It is also marketed as Meftal-SPAS containing mefenamic acid along with dicyclomine hydrochloride as an analgesic and antispasmodic. [3] Also it is a part of Normaxin containing two other salts clidinium bromide and chlordiazepoxide. [ citation needed]Side effects [ edit]Dicycloverine can cause a range of anticholinergic side effects such as dry mouth, nausea, [1] and, at higher doses, deliriant effects. [ citation needed] Recreational use of this drug for its anticholinergic effects (both low dose for euphoria and high dose for delirium) has been rarely reported. [ citation needed]Precautions [ edit]Because dicycloverine is known to "impair mental alertness or physical coordination", those taking the drug should "avoid driving or operating machinery until effect on [the] individual are known". [1] It is also important that women inform their clinicians "if they are or plan to become pregnant or plan to breast-feed".

Please add such references to provide context and establish the relevance of any primary research articles cited. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. (November 2016)Chemical synthesis in discovery [ edit]Original cyclomine discovery synthesis. [4] [ non-primary source needed]Dicycloverine was first synthesized chemically in the United States circa 1945 (with patent from Wm S Merrell Company filed in January 1946, presentation at the September 1946 meeting of the Medicinal Chemistry Section of the A. C. S., and publication of the preparation in that Society's journal in November 1947). [4] [5] [ non-primary source needed]The discovery synthesis came in the preparation of a family of aminoesters of 1-substituted cycloalkane - carboxylic acids, and proceeded for this specific compound (see scheme) via "condensation" (double alkylation) of phenylacetonitrile with 1,5-dibromopentane in the presence of sodamide (Na NH 2) dissolved in diethyl ether - liquid ammonia at low-temperature, which gave the 1,1-disubstituted cyclohexane nitrile. Alcoholysis of that nitrile in ethanol (Et OH) and sulfuric acid (H 2 SO 4) gave the corresponding carboxylic acid ethyl ester, which was transesterified as its crude mixture in toluene or xylene with 2- (diethylamino)ethanol [a sodium (Na)-catalysed reaction]. Catalytic hydrogenation using hydrogen gas (H 2) over Adam's catalyst (Pt O 2, abbreviated here Pt O) in acetic acid reduced the aromatic ring of the original phenylacetonitrile the corresponding second cyclohexane ring, [6] to give the final drug.

Chris Malcolm, 30 years experience in construction and building supplies Answered Feb 7, 2016 · Author has 75 answers and 144.8k answer views Generally, for our north american construction purposes, our plywood is bundled always in the same size lifts and usually 4'x8' sheets. There fore it goes like this:3/8" = 80 sheets = 2,400 (30 lbs)1./2" = 60 sheets = 2,400 (40 lbs)5/8" = 50 sheets = 2,400 (48 lbs)3/4" = 40 sheets = 2,400 (60 lbs)Now the weights above are based on the most common species in my area.. Douglas Fir Cofi rated plywood graded as "standard sheathing".so using 1/2" as our example, we know that it is approx. 40lbs for softwood cofi rated plywood and there is 60 sheets = 2,460 lbs.now using 3/4" as our example, we know that it is approx. 60lbs for softwood cofi rated plywood and there is 40 sheets = 2,400 lbs. So for all intents and purposes, they are approx the same weight lifts regardless of thickness. It varies when you start talking about other types of wood on the plywoods but they are all listed, graded and rated on the same scale.12.4k Views · View Upvoters Your response is private.

This tornado hit the community of Tuscola, where it damaged the Jim Ned high school injuring two people. A strong upper level disturbance combined with a strong surface low pressure system moving across West Central Texas produced a significant squall line that moved through the entire San Angelo county warning area.

This tornado was the southern tornado track and destroyed oil storage tanks, oil equipment, a small building, and a couple of recreational vehicles. A trained spotter reported that this tornado was multiple vortex. The survey team noted separate damage areas south and southwest of the main track. A warm front was located near Abilene as strong upper level energy moved in from the west. Several thunderstorms developed along and to the north of the front with two storms becoming supercells and producing most of the severe weather that evening. One supercell moved across Fisher county into Jones county with only reports of hail and funnel clouds. Another supercell formed to the south of the first supercell just to the northwest of Abilene. This supercell became the dominant storm just north of Abilene and continued to intensify as it moved across Shackelford county and continued east to near Ranger. One tornado was reported in extreme southern Jones county just north of Abilene and four more tornadoes were confirmed across southern Shackelford county.31.0 1976-04-15 3 32°02'N / 100°06'W 31°58'N / 99°57'W 9.90 Miles 33 Yards 0 0 25K 0 Runnels31.4 1962-05-25 3 32°50'N / 100°00'W 32°53'N / 99°58'W 4.10 Miles 67 Yards 1 1 25K 0 Jones31.4 1973-03-23 2 32°28'N / 100°24'W 32°28'N / 100°21'W 3.30 Miles 300 Yards 0 0 250K 0 Nolan31.5 1967-04-12 2 32°43'N / 100°15'W 0.20 Mile 40 Yards 0 0 0K 0 Fisher31.5 1979-04-10 2 31°58'N / 99°48'W 31°58'N / 99°45'W 2.70 Miles 100 Yards 0 0 0K 0 Runnels31.7 2003-05-15 2 32°33'N / 99°18'W 32°33'N / 99°20'W 1.50 Miles 450 Yards 0 0 3K 0 Shackelford Brief Description: This was the northern tornado track of the two that paralleled one another.

A strong upper level disturbance combined with a strong surface low pressure system moving across West Central Texas produced a significant squall line that moved through the entire San Angelo county warning area. This squall line was accompanied by 60 to 80 MPH winds which produced widespread damage, especially across the Big Country. Embedded within the squall line, were several Supercell thunderstorms which produced nine tornadoes within the San Angelo county warning area.48.0 2003-05-03 2 33°04'N / 99°38'W 33°07'N / 99°37'W 4.00 Miles 440 Yards 0 0 10K 0 Haskell Brief Description: Spotters watched a large one quarter mile wide tornado that moved across the northeast portion of lake Stamford. This tornado came within yards of hitting the lake Stamford power plant, however it did knock down 11 transmission poles coming out of the power plant and eight distribution poles. This tornado was also filmed by a weather broadcaster from a local Abilene television station. An isolated severe thunderstorm formed along the dry line in the late afternoon in Dickens County. This thunderstorm split into two different cells with one going northeast into Oklahoma and the other moving almost due east across Stonewall, Haskell and Eastern Throckmorton Counties. As the thunderstorm was over eastern Stonewall County, it begin to take on tornadic radar signatures and continued to intensify as it moved into Haskell County. During it's two hour trek across Haskell County, it produced at least four tornadoes. Right after the storm crossed over into Throckmorton County it weakened rapidly and eventually dissipated over the southeastern portion of Throckmorton County.48.5 1955-06-04 2 32°03'N / 99°08'W 2.00 Miles 100 Yards 0 0 25K 0 Brown48.6 1968-05-24 3 32°38'N / 100°36'W 32°38'N / 100°40'W 4.10 Miles 67 Yards 0 0 25K 0 Scurry49.0 1979-04-10 3 31°42'N / 99°45'W 31°44'N / 99°43'W 3.30 Miles 880 Yards 0 0 3K 0 Runnels49.0 1976-09-27 2 31°43'N / 99°57'W 0 0 25K 0 Runnels* The information on this page is based on the global volcano database, the U.

The Porsche Panamera is an outstanding vehicle. The fact that it ranks so highly in a class that we call "super luxury cars" should tell you something about how great it is. When it comes to performance, the Panamera might as well be a sports car. It’s powerful and athletic, and it gets good gas mileage. Inside, you’ll find a beautiful, spacious cabin with comfortable seats, lots of tech features, and plenty of cargo room. Should I Buy the Porsche Panamera? The 2018 Panamera certainly belongs on your list if you’re looking for a top-of-the-line luxury car. Whether you want the comfort of a luxury vehicle or the high-end performance that comes with the Porsche badge, the Panamera delivers. However, this class is full of excellent cars. It’s also worth your time to check out the Mercedes-Benz S-Class and Audi A7. If you like Porsche but aren’t completely sold on the Panamera, see how it stacks up against the Porsche Cayenne, which is a luxury midsize SUV. Compare the Panamera, S-Class, and A7 »We Did the Research for You: 10 Reviews Analyzed Our car reviews include everything you need to know before heading to the dealership. We combine the opinions of the automotive press with quantifiable data like crash test results and reliability ratings to form a complete picture of every vehicle we rank. The 2018 Porsche Panamera is part of a generation that began with the 2017 model year. There are two new models in the lineup for 2018, but there are no other major changes. As a result, this review uses research and data from the 2017 and 2018 model years. Why You Can Trust Us U. S. News Best Cars has been ranking vehicles for a decade, and our team has more than 75 years of combined experience in the automotive industry. Our car reviews are objective. To keep them that way, our editorial staff doesn’t accept expensive gifts or trips from automakers, and a third party handles all the advertising on our site. How Much Does the Porsche Panamera Cost? The Panamera’s base price is $85,000. That’s above average for the class, but it’s not outrageous. There are plenty of higher trims, some of which have jaw-dropping price tags. The most expensive trim in the lineup is the Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid Executive, which has a starting price of just under $195,000. Check out our U. S. News Best Price Program for great savings at your local Porsche dealer. Porsche Panamera Versus the Competition Which Is Better: Porsche Panamera or Mercedes-Benz S-Class? The Mercedes-Benz S-Class stands toe-to-toe with the Panamera. These are two of the finest cars you can buy. The S-Class has strong engines, a plush ride, and one of the richest interiors of any car on the market. It offers an embarrassing number of features, and the seats are comfortable enough to sleep on. The Panamera has more cargo space, but the S-Class is available in coupe and convertible body styles in addition to the standard sedan. In the end, there isn’t a wrong choice between these two. Which Is Better: Porsche Panamera or Audi A7? The Audi A7 and the Porsche Panamera share a lot styling features: They both have a hatchback-style body, few buttons cluttering the center stack, and posh, modern interiors. The Audi is also one of the few super luxury cars that won’t get its doors blown off by this Porsche. But perhaps the most notable difference is price, where the A7 undercuts the Panamera by several thousand dollars. The Panamera may be a slightly better vehicle overall, but these are both excellent automobiles. The Audi’s drastically lower price makes it the better value. Which Is Better: Porsche Panamera or Porsche Cayenne? The Porsche Cayenne is a luxury midsize SUV that might make a good alternative to the Panamera. Both vehicles have a lineup of powerful engines and handle better than many of their peers. Both are fun to drive in their respective classes, but the Cayenne gets worse fuel economy. The Cayenne seats five to the Panamera’s four, but you won’t be surprised to learn that both of these vehicles have stylish, comfortable interiors. The Cayenne also has more total cargo space. This comparison largely boils down to whether you’d rather have the more efficient, slightly more luxurious Panamera or the more practical but still luxurious Cayenne. Compare the Panamera, S-Class, and A7 »Panamera Interior How Many People Does the Panamera Seat? The Panamera seats four people, and there are no bad seats in this car. Even tall adults will find plenty of head- and legroom in both rows. The seats are comfortable, and both rows are highly adjustable. Panamera and Car Seats There are two full sets of LATCH car-seat connectors in the Panamera. It’s pretty easy to install car seats, and the rear seats are big enough for most types of car seats to fit, with plenty of room to spare. Panamera Interior Quality The Panamera’s cabin is well-designed. It looks great, and the sleek dashboard gives an air of elegance. To top things off, there are plenty of premium materials throughout the interior. Panamera Cargo Space The Panamera’s cargo capacity varies from model to model, but the estimates are roughly average for the class. With the rear seats up, you get around 14 to 17 cubic feet of space, which is enough room for 10 to 12 shopping bags. Fold the rear seats down, and you get about 42 to 52 cubic feet of space, letting you haul vacation luggage, outdoor gear, and more. You may expect the Sport Turismo model to have more cargo capacity than the standard body style. However, one of this vehicle's few shortcomings is that electing for the more wagonlike body style nets you less than 1 cubic foot of extra cargo space. Panamera Infotainment, Bluetooth, and Navigation Standard features in the Panamera include Bluetooth, a 10-speaker audio system, satellite radio, a USB port, and a touch-screen infotainment system with the Porsche Communication Management interface, navigation, Apple Car Play, and a Wi-Fi hot spot. For more information, read What Is Apple Car Play? Then, see the Best Cars With Apple Car Play. Available features include quad-zone automatic climate control, ambient lighting, a 14-speaker Bose audio system, a 21-speaker Burmester audio system, and a rear-seat entertainment system. Most of the Panamera’s features are controlled through the touch-screen infotainment system. The interface is user-friendly, but adjusting some settings requires a lot of steps, and some people may find buttons easier. Read more about interior »Panamera Performance Panamera Engine: Pick Your Favorite Porsche gives you plenty of engine choices in the Panamera, ranging from the base model’s 330-horsepower turbocharged V6 up to the 550-horsepower V8 powering the Panamera Turbo trims. All of the engines deliver plenty of power and quick acceleration, and they’re mated to an eight-speed automatic PDK transmission, which is an outstanding gearbox. There are also two Panamera plug-in hybrid trims. The lower model features a twin-turbo V6 and an electric motor that combine to produce 462 horsepower. The higher trim features a twin-turbo V8 and an electric motor that produce a combined 680 horsepower. Neither has range or fuel economy estimates at the time of this writing. Panamera Gas Mileage: Setting the Bar Fuel economy doesn’t differ that much from one super luxury car to another. The Panamera is one of the class leaders, but only by a little bit (though top of the class is still top of the class). With the V6 engines, it gets 21 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway. Ratings drop to 18/25 mpg city/highway with the V8. For the sake of comparison, check out the Panamera against some of its chief rivals. The Mercedes-Benz S-Class gets 19/28 mpg city/highway, and the Audi A7 gets 20/29 mpg city/highway. The Panamera will save you gas money compared to each of those competitors, but it amounts to less than $200 per year. Panamera Ride and Handling: It Is a Porsche, After All People expect a Porsche to deliver buttoned-down handling, and the Panamera certainly does. The steering is sharp, and there’s not much roll through corners. Ride quality is good, and the suspension adjusts to road conditions to ensure you’re always riding smoothly. Read more about performance »Panamera Reliability Is the Porsche Panamera Reliable? The 2018 Porsche Panamera is part of a generation that typically earns a predicted reliability rating of 4.5 out of five from J. D. Power. That’s an outstanding rating for any vehicle (three is an average score), and it’s a good score for a super luxury car. Porsche Panamera Warranty The Porsche Panamera comes with a four-year/50,000-mile warranty. Many luxury vehicles have similar warranty terms. Read more about reliability »Panamera Safety Panamera Crash Test Results The 2018 Porsche Panamera has not been put through crash tests by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration or the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. Panamera Safety Features Standard active safety features include a rearview camera and front and rear parking sensors. Available driver assistance features include adaptive cruise control, traffic jam assist, blind spot monitoring, lane departure warning, lane keep assist, road sign recognition, night vision, a surround-view camera, and forward collision warning. Read more about safety »Which Porsche Panamera Model Is Right for Me? There are more than a dozen trim options to choose from with this Porsche. Thankfully, most of them have similar standard features lists, and the powertrain is what really sets them apart. There are also three main body styles, all of which are available in every trim: the base, the Executive, and the new-for-2018 Sport Turismo. They’re all similar, but the Executive and Sport Turismo are slightly larger than the standard Panamera. There are several available features and option packages you can tack on to whichever model you choose. Many of them involve interior and exterior styling, including color schemes and upgraded materials. Some are geared toward comfort and entertainment, including features like premium audio systems, improved climate control, and advanced seating options. There are also several available driver assistance features. Picking the right trim boils down to picking a powertrain. If you’re looking for a gasoline-only powertrain, the Panamera 4S is a great choice. Its twin-turbo V6 receives nearly universal acclaim.

[4]The Civic was originally planned to become bigger, but after the collapse of Lehman Brothers and the global credit crisis in 2008, Honda wanted to make the car smaller, lighter and more fuel-efficient, while increasing space inside. [5]Honda Civic EX (US)South American version with rear fog lamps on its tailgate Honda Civic Hybrid (Australia)Interior On December 13, 2010, Honda unveiled a sketch of the new ninth-generation Civic which was described as "energetic, sleek and aerodynamic." Both coupe and sedan concepts for the North American market were shown on January 10, 2011 at the 2011 North American International Auto Show. The production version of the ninth-generation Civic based on the revealed concepts will go on sale in spring 2011. [6] Gasoline, hybrid and natural gas variants will be offered. The gasoline-engined lineup includes a sedan and coupe. Both of them will be also offered in Si performance versions. [7]The new model is slightly smaller and lighter than the outgoing models. [8] The sheet metal is all new, with a longer hood but still a familiar profile: Honda calls it the "one-motion" design. [9]Gasoline (DX, LX, EX, and EX-L), hybrid and natural gas variants are offered. The non-hybrid gasoline-engined lineup includes sedan and coupe, and Si performance versions are available as coupe and sedan. Honda has also released the Civic HF sedan, a model with aerodynamic and fuel efficiency enhancements which revives the "HF" moniker last used for the 1991 CRX HF. It features a Honda R18 1.8 Liter Inline Four-Cylinder engine and a 5-Speed Automatic transmission like the regular gas-powered models, but it has been tuned so that it returns 41 highway miles per gallon ( MPG ). It comes with fifteen-inch alloy wheels with low rolling-resistance tires that reduce rolling resistance by 20%, additional underbody covers, a rear decklid spoiler and keyless entry with a security alarm. This results in a 4% improvement in aerodynamic performance. [10] It comes in two colors, Polished Metal Metallic or Taffeta White Clear Coat with a gray interior. The Civic GX NGV (Natural Gas Vehicle) has been available since late 2011. The "two-tier" instrument panel from the previous generation saw a significant redesign. All models (except for the base model DX) come with an Intelligent Multi-Informational Display (i Mi D), situated on the enlarged upper tier and to the right of the digital speedometer. The 5-inch color LCD screen replaces the trip computer below the analog tachometer on the lower tier while integrating information of the vehicle with that from compatible personal electronics and steering wheel controls. [10] It displays information such as current odometer and trip mileage, time and date, fuel economy, audio system, climate control information, and more. The Maintenance Minder now includes interval reminders for scheduled maintenance, such as air filter, cabin pollen filter, tire rotations, drive belt inspections as well as an oil change reminder. It will display an alphanumeric code, which is listed in the owners manual, signifying maintenance for the identified item is due. Owners who do their own maintenance can be reminded and the feature can be easily reset after the maintenance has been performed. Honda's Eco Assist technology, introduced earlier on the Insight, is added to most models (except Si), and becomes the first gasoline-only powered Honda to employ such technology in North America. It is an information system to help the driver adopt a more fuel-efficient driving style, [7] and is proven to improve fuel economy by about 10% for Honda's hybrid vehicles in Japan [11] by providing visual feedback to promote or confirm efficient driving. [10] To this end, the dashboard includes a pair of color-changing indicators, adjacent to the speedometer, that change from green to blue based on the vehicle's actual driving efficiency, together with a linear fuel economy indicator accompanying the fuel gauge, replacing the coolant gauge. The Eco Assist can also alter the transmission's shift pattern in the hybrid model. [12] A new Motion Adaptive electric power steering system helps to mitigate oversteer or understeer in conjunction with the standard Vehicle Stability Assist. [10]All Civic models have better fuel economy in the U. S. EPA ratings, by as much as 8% on the highway for models with an automatic transmission compared to 2011 versions. [10] Two versions achieve 41 mpg ‑US (5.7 L/100 km; 49 mpg ‑imp) (17.54 km/L) or above in U. S. government testing. [13] Aerodynamics and weight reduction play important role in fuel economy improvement: aero parts are placed under the engine bay, fuel tank, and the rear underbody to enhance airflow; front spoiler and strakes ahead of tires direct airflow around the wheel wells; there is a new flat underfloor; resulting in 3.4% lower coefficient of drag. [10] Increase use of high-strength steel to 55% on the sedan (56% for the coupe) from 50% contributes to a 7% reduction in body weight. [10] The electric power steering system is lighter by 1.3 kg (2.9 lb); the front subframe is lighter by 1.7 kg (3.7 lb); a thinner-walled fuel tank saves 1.0 kg (2.2 lb) and a laser-welded exhaust silencer that is 0.5 kg (1.1 lb) lighter. [10] As a result, the LX trim with an automatic transmission is almost 50 lb (23 kg) lighter. [10] On the other hand, for the 2012 sedan, passenger volume is increased by 3.8 ft³ (108 L) to 94.7 ft³ (2682 L), [10] with three more inches of elbowroom in the front and about two more inches of legroom in the back. [14] The piston assembly was the source of the most significant losses in an engine. To reduce friction loss in the engine, pistons in the 1.8 litre engine have a molybdenum treatment applied in a polka-dot pattern. [15]A HF model, the most fuel-efficient gasoline-only powered Civic in the lineup, gets 41 mpg ‑US (5.7 L/100 km; 49 mpg ‑imp) (17.54 km/L) under EPA highway test cycle, compares with 36 mpg ‑US (6.5 L/100 km; 43 mpg ‑imp) (15.38 km/L) for previous generation, increasing the combined fuel economy rating to 33 mpg ‑US (7.1 L/100 km; 40 mpg ‑imp) (14.08 km/L). [16] [17]The Civic hybrid, with a larger 1.5-liter i-VTEC engine that produces 90 horsepower and 97 pound-feet of torque [14] and a lithium-ion battery, is rated at 44 mpg ‑US (5.3 L/100 km; 53 mpg ‑imp) in combined city and highway EPA test cycle, an improvement of 3 mpg ‑US (3.6 mpg ‑imp) over the previous generation hybrid. [17] A new stronger electric motor produces 23 horsepower and 78 pound-feet of torque. The new lithium-ion battery is lighter and more powerful compared with the nickel-metal hydride one in previous model. [14] Both the Civic HF and Civic Hybrid models have improved aerodynamics. [13]Other gasoline-only powered Civic sedans and coupes get 39 mpg ‑US (6.0 L/100 km; 47 mpg ‑imp) in highway tests, an improvement of 3 mpg ‑US (3.6 mpg ‑imp) over previous generation, and 28 mpg ‑US (8.4 L/100 km; 34 mpg ‑imp) for city driving. The Civic GX natural gas model will have a 7% improvement in fuel economy. The above models are also equipped with the Honda ECO Assist technology. [13]The Civic Si sedan and coupe models have a larger, more powerful 2.4-liter inline-four engine with 201 hp (149 k W) and 170 lb-ft (230 N·m) of torque, as well as a new 6-speed manual transmission. The Civic Si achieves an EPA-estimated highway fuel economy of 31 mpg ‑US (7.6 L/100 km; 37 mpg ‑imp ), an increase of 2 mpg ‑US (2.4 mpg ‑imp ). [13]Vehicle color selections: Alabaster Silver Metallic Carnelian Red Cool Mist Metallic (hybrid)Crimson Pearl Crystal Black Pearl Dyno Blue Pearl Frosty White Metallic (hybrid)Green Opal Metallic (hybrid)Modern Steel Metallic Polished Metal Metallic Rallye Red Sunburst Orange Pearl Taffeta White Twilight Blue Metallic Urban Titanium Metallic White Orchid Pearl (hybrid)In 2012, Honda recalled 50,000 2012 Civics because the process required during assembly to seat the driver's side driveshaft and set the retaining clip was not completed. [18] [19]Other markets [ edit]Chinese models went on sale in 2011-10-29. Early models include a choice of two engines: 1.8L and 2.0L; 5-speed manual (1.8L EXi), 5-speed Automatic (1.8L EXi, 1.8L VTi) or 5-speed Tiptronic transmission (2.0L TYPE-S) and navigation system for (1.8L VTi, 2.0L TYPE-S). [20] It was not sold in Japan because sales were affected by the fact the width dimension exceeded 1,700mm, an important distinction according to Japanese Government dimension regulations. In the Philippines, the ninth Generation Honda Civic was initially launched in early 2012 and sold in 4 variants: 1.8 S which is the base model of the Civic with a choice of 5 speed manual or 5 speed automatic, 1.8 E and the 1.8 Exi have the same alloy wheels and mirror with side turning lights while the Exi received fog lights and the top of the line 2.0 EL with unique 17-inch style wheels, HID headlights, automatic climate control and leather seats, while the 1.8 E and 2.0 EL variants comes with the optional Modulo kit. In 2014, Honda Philippines unveiled a facelift version of the Civic that includes new sportier front grille while the 1.8 exi is no longer available and the 1.8 S now receives front fog lights. The 1.8 E receives new alloy wheels and is available in standard or Modulo kit and the 2.0 EL now receives side curtain airbags and a choice between standard model or with Mugen kit. The ECON button is available in all models while the 1.8. E and 2.0. EL receives the touchscreen audio panel with USB and HDMI connectivity and push start or stop engine. Starting from September 2015, models for the Turkish market were available with factory converted LPG version with the commencement of a new LPG-only assembly line in Honda's Turkey plant. Turkish models had been available with dealer-installed LPG conversion since 2011. [21]Facelift for North American market [ edit]Honda Civic VTi sedan (Australia)Reviews of the 2012 Civic were generally lackluster, with many reviewers citing the car's cheap interior materials, along with worsened driving dynamics and insubstantial exterior styling changes from the previous generation, as drawbacks. Consumer Reports went so far as to remove the 2012 Civic from its 'Recommended' list of compact cars, which the vehicle had been on for many years. [22] Partly in response, Honda introduced a heavily revamped Civic for the 2013 model year. The refreshed Civic sedan featured a new front fascia with a U-shaped honeycomb grille and chrome accents (replacing the 2012 model's three-bar grille), a redesigned hood, and a reworked rear end with new taillight lenses, along with additional light clusters and a chrome bar on the trunk lid. New standard features included a rear backup camera, Bluetooth controls, and Pandora Radio access. Ride quality, handling, and interior material quality were also improved. The coupe retained the 2012 model's exterior styling, but received the same interior and engineering upgrades as the sedan. [23]Honda CEO Takanobu Ito explained that the 2012 model was developed during the height of the global financial crisis, which led the company to believe that consumers would be willing to forego upscale content and quality in new vehicles so long as they were fuel efficient and affordable. Ironically, rival automakers such as Ford and Hyundai increased the quality and feature content of their compact vehicles around the same time, pushing sales of Civic rivals such as the Ford Focus and Hyundai Elantra to new heights in the United States. [24]Model year 2014 facelift in North America [ edit]For 2014, minor changes were made to the Civic lineup in North America. These changes included exterior styling updates on the Civic coupe, premium interior refinements to all models [ clarification needed], an optional audio system with a 7-inch capacitive touchscreen, Lane Watch blind spot monitor (consisting of a camera mounted on the passenger-side mirror), "Smart Entry" with push button start, Honda Link connected-car technology, and an all-new CVT for gasoline-powered Civics. US models included the Civic LX and EX coupes with a 5-speed manual transmission or CVT, EX-L and EX-L Navi coupes with a CVT; Civic LX sedan with a 5-speed manual or CVT, EX, EX-L EX-L Navi, and HF sedans with a CVT. [25] Styling changes to the Civic coupe included a restyled grille, hood, front fenders and headlights, new taillight lenses, sportier front and rear bumpers, new side mirrors and a new selection of wheel styles. The Civic Si coupe included a unique lower front bumper garnish, larger rear decklid spoiler, a front spoiler and rear air diffuser; in addition they also received an increase in engine power to 205 hp and 174 lb-ft of torque via a retuned exhaust system. The EX-L coupe with accessories kit featured a ground effects package and 18-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels.

[39] Beginning with 2013 models, all Civics came standard with a rear-view backup camera. [40]Euro-spec 5-door hatchback (2011-2017) [ edit]Honda Civic hatchback (Europe; pre-facelift) Honda Civic hatchback (Europe; facelift)The five door hatchback Civic for European market was unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September 2011. [41] Strong identity of the previous generation European Civic led Honda to refine the current package instead of radical changes. Basic look and proportions of previous car are retained as the futuristic design was welcomed by customers. Aerodynamics, rear and side visibility are all improved. It is claimed to be the most aerodynamic car in its class, with a coefficient of 0.27. The wheelbase is 30mm shorter without a decrease of interior space. Retaining the compact torsion beam rear suspension and the centrally mounted fuel tank help contribute to a boot capacity of 470 litres. More than 20,000 miles of testing was carried out on British roads for better handling and ride quality. The rear beam axle is completely redesigned for higher stiffness, and new fluid-filled bushing is used to improve stability and cornering ability, as well as ride quality. There are more standard equipment and higher interior quality. UK models went on sale in 2011-10-01. Early models include a choice of 1.4-litre petrol, 1.8-litre petrol, 2.2 i-DTEC Diesel engines, with 1.6-litre Diesel engine available later in 2012. [42]Civic Tourer Concept (2013) [ edit]The concept vehicle previewed the upcoming Civic Tourer. It was unveiled at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. [43]The production model was first shown in the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show and went on sale in 2014. [44]2014 Civic hatchback update, 2014 Civic Tourer (2014-) [ edit]Changes to Civic hatchback include retuned electric power steering to provide a more secure control during higher speeds, front and rear dampers were revised for improving body control, toe and camber of the rear suspension were realigned to improve the hatchback's handling, privacy glass on the lower rear window, piano black touches on the number plate surround, tailgate and lower bumper; piano black front bumper, new alloy wheels, darker wheel arch garnishes, white stitching on the seats, steering wheel and knee pad; aluminum inserts around the cup holder, glossy black inserts.2014 Honda Civic Tourer (Germany)The Civic Tourer was designed and developed in Europe. It is based on the architecture of the 5 door, and at launch, included most of the updates as mentioned above. Additionally it includes an adaptive rear damping system and the largest capacity trunk space in its class (624l VDA below tonneau). The Tourer also benefits from additional under floor storage compartments in the boot, 'Magic Seats' and 60:40 split rear seats. Overall length is 235 mm (9.3 in) longer than that of the Civic five-door. Advanced Driving Assist System package (available for Tourer) includes blind spot warning, traffic sign recognition, lane departure warning and active city braking. The vehicles were unveiled in 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show, and was set to go on sale in 2014, starting with Civic hatchback in January 2014. [44] [45]Early Civic Tourer models include 1.6 i-DTEC engine from the Earth Dreams Technology series or the 1.8 i-VTEC engine, 6-speed manual (1.6 i-DTEC, 1.8 i-VTEC) or 5-speed automatic (1.8 i-VTEC) transmission. [46] [47]Honda Civic WTCC [ edit]2013 [ edit]It was a race car version of Honda Civic 5-door hatchback for the FIA Super 2000 category of 2013 FIA World Touring Car Championship. It included a 1.6-litre inline-4 direct injection turbocharged engine with intercooler, dry oil sump. Honda Racing Team JAS and Zengő Motorsport entered the 2013 WTCC tournament. [48] Three Honda Civic race cars made a clean sweep in races held in Slovakia and Shanghai by winning the first, second and third positions. [49] Gabriele Tarquini won the overall second place in the 2013 WTCC championship. [50]2014 [ edit]Changes include wheel arch extensions, larger diameter wheels, sleeker aero package, extended rear spoiler and increased engine power. Gabriele Tarquini and Tiago Monteiro of JAS Motorsport entered 2014 World Touring Car Championship, with further Civics to be entered by private outfits Zengo Motorsport and Proteam Racing for Hungary's Norbert Michelisz and Moroccan Mehdi Bennani respectively. [51]Civic Type R (2015-2017) [ edit]Main article: Honda Civic Type RHonda Civic Type R (FK2)This is a version of the Civic 5-door hatchback for the European market, with a direct injection turbocharged 2.0 L (120 cu in) VTEC TURBO engine from Honda's Earth Dreams Technology range rated 310 PS (228 k W; 306 hp) rpm and 400 N⋅m (295 lb⋅ft) @ 2,500 rpm. The engine red lines at 7,000rpm. 0-62 mph in 5.7 seconds, top speed of 167 mph. All cars will use a six-speed manual gearbox. Honda announced it had broken the Renault Megane 275 Trophy-R’s 7:54.36 front-wheel-drive Nurburgring lap time. The new Honda Civic Type R posted a 7:50.63, beating the Renault by over three seconds. [52] But the record was soon broken by VW GTI again [53]Production [ edit]As Honda's Research and Development Centre at Tochigi, Japan was damaged in the March 2011 earthquake, designers of the European Civic were transferred to the Swindon plant in the UK, where all European Civic hatchbacks are built, to ensure the development is not delayed. [54] Production at Swindon, UK, was disrupted by supply chain disruption caused by the 2011 Japanese tsunami and flooding in Thailand. Normal production of Civic did not start until December 2011, causing the new Civic to not be available on the market until February 2012. [55]The Automobile R&D Center of Honda R&D Co., Ltd. developed the engine for 2013 Honda Civic WTCC, while M-TEC Co., Ltd. manufactured and maintained 2013 Honda Civic WTCC. J. A. S. Motorsports of Italy, was responsible for vehicle body development and manufacturing, as well as team operations. [56]Production of Civic 5-door hatchback began at Honda of the UK Manufacturing Limited by in November 2011. Civic Tourer was built at Honda of the UK Manufacturing Ltd in Swindon alongside the Civic hatchback variant. [57]The 1.6 and 2.2 i-DTEC engines used in Honda Civic were built at Honda's Swindon plant in the UK. [58]Motorsport [ edit]WTCC [ edit]Tiago Monteiro's 2012 WTCC Honda Civic Andrew Jordan's 2012 BTCC Honda Civic Nagy Futam's 2017 WTCC Honda Civic TC1Honda announced to enter the 2012 World Touring Car Championship (WTCC) with a racer built on the 2012 Euro Civic 5 door hatchback.

Now you can add Showtime, Starz, and more to Amazon Prime Video12/08/2015 at 8:50 AM by Brad Linder 5 Comments Sign up for an Amazon Prime membership and in addition to getting free 2-day shipping on millions of items, you get access to Prime Video, a service that lets you stream thousands of movies and TV shows over the internet using a phone, tablet, computer, or TV box like the Amazon Fire TV. Prime Video may not be as popular as Netflix, but there’s some pretty good content available. Amazon’s original TV series Transparent won a bunch of Emmys this year, and recently I’ve been using Prime Video to re-watch the Star Trek. Not satisfied with the available content though? Now you can get more: Amazon is partnering with other streaming services to integrate their catalogs with its own. Pay an extra monthly fee and you can stream movies and TV shows from Starz, Showtime, and more. Sure, you could also just pay for a standalone Showtime Anytime subscription and use the company’s own apps. But if you sign up for Showtime through Amazon, movies and TV shows from the network will show up alongside you other Amazon content, making it easier to search, browse, and maintain a watch list. Amazon also handles all the billing, and some services are actually cheaper if you sign up through Amazon than if you pay for a standalone service. Right now Showtime and Starz are the big names, but there are a bunch of other options, including: Acorn TVComedy Central Stand-Up Plus Drama Dever Lifetime Movie Club Qello Concerts Sundance Now Doc Club Smithsonian Earth Prices for these subscription add-ons range from about $3 per month to $9 per month on top of your $99 Amazon Prime membership fee. But it looks like all of the services offer free trials if you want to check them out before spending any extra money… or if you want to just binge watch one particular show.via AFTV News and Amazon Share this: Facebook Twitter Google Reddit Email

Sinkholes
|
Home Page → Weather & Hydrology → Sinkholes Sinkholes What is a sinkhole? Sinkholes are depressions or holes in the land surface that occur throughout west-central Florida. They can be shallow or deep, small or large, but all are a result of the dissolving of the underlying limestone. Hydrologic conditions, including lack of rainfall, lowered water levels, or, conversely, excessive rainfall in a short period of time, can all contribute to sinkhole development. More facts about sinkholes can be found in the District’s Sinkhole Brochure. View the Department of Environmental Protection’s sinkhole database Sinkholes are a common naturally occurring geologic phenomenon and one of the predominant land forms in Florida. Many of the lakes in Florida are relic sinkholes. Sinkholes can be classified as geologic hazards sometimes causing extensive damage to structures and roads resulting in costly repairs. Sinkholes can also threaten water supplies by draining unfiltered water from streams, lakes and wetlands directly into the aquifer (underground water supply). What if a sinkhole opens on my property? If your home is threatened, contact your homeowners insurance company. If extensive damage occurs to your house or property, notify the Office of Emergency Management for the county. If desired, the resident may make contact with a private contractor to evaluate the hole to officially determine if it is a sinkhole. Sinkhole data and maps Florida Department of Environmental Protection Consumer guides Consumer guides relative to sinkholes are available from the State of Florida Department of Financial Services.

Primitive reflexes
|
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Primitive reflexes are reflex actions originating in the central nervous system that are exhibited by normal infants, but not neurologically intact adults, in response to particular stimuli. These reflexes are absent due to the development of the frontal lobes as a child transitions normally into child development. [1] These primitive reflexes are also called infantile, infant or newborn reflexes. Older children and adults with atypical neurology (e.g., people with cerebral palsy) may retain these reflexes and primitive reflexes may reappear in adults. Reappearance may be attributed to certain neurological conditions including dementia (especially in a rare set of diseases called frontotemporal degenerations), traumatic lesions, and strokes. [2] [3] An individual with cerebral palsy and typical intelligence can learn to suppress these reflexes, but the reflex might resurface under certain conditions (i.e., during extreme startle reaction ). Reflexes may also be limited to those areas affected by the atypical neurology, (i.e., individuals with cerebral palsy that only affects their legs retaining the Babinski reflex but having normal speech); for those individuals with hemiplegia, the reflex may be seen in the foot on the affected side only. Primitive reflexes are primarily tested with suspected brain injury or some dementias such as Parkinson's disease for the purpose of assessing frontal lobe functioning. If they are not being suppressed properly they are called frontal release signs. Atypical primitive reflexes are also being researched as potential early warning signs of autistic spectrum disorders. [4]Primitive reflexes are mediated by extrapyramidal functions, many of which are already present at birth. They are lost as the pyramidal tracts gain functionality with progressive myelination. They may reappear in adults or children with loss of function of the pyramidal system due to a variety of reasons. However with the advent of Amiel Tison method of neurological assessment, the importance of assessment of such reflexes in the pediatric population has come down. [5] [6] [7]Contents [ hide ]1 Adaptive value of reflexes2 Moro reflex3 Walking/stepping reflex4 Rooting reflex5 Sucking reflex6 Asymmetrical tonic neck reflex7 Symmetrical tonic neck reflex8 Palmar grasp reflex9 Plantar reflex10 Galant reflex11 Swimming reflex12 Babkin reflex13 Parachute reflex14 Other primitive reflexes tested in adults15 Primitive reflexes in high-risk newborns16 References17 External links Adaptive value of reflexes [ edit]Reflexes vary in utility. Some reflexes hold a survival value (e.g., the rooting reflex, which helps a breastfed infant find the mother's nipple). Babies display the rooting reflex only when they are hungry and touched by another person, not when they touch themselves. There are a few reflexes that likely assisted in the survival of babies during human evolutionary past (e.g., the Moro reflex). Other reflexes such as sucking and grabbing help establish gratifying interaction between parents and infants. They can encourage a parent to respond with love and affection, and to feed their child more competently. In addition, it helps parents to comfort their infant while allowing the baby to control distress and the amount of stimulation they receive. [8]Moro reflex [ edit]Main article: Moro reflex Moro reflex The Moro reflex in a four-day-old infant: 1) the reflex is initiated by pulling the infant up from the floor and then releasing him ; 2) he spreads his arms 3) he pulls his arms in ; 4) he cries ( 10 seconds)This is sometimes referred to as the startle reaction, startle response, startle reflex or embrace reflex. It is more commonly known as the Moro response or Moro reflex after its discoverer, pediatrician Ernst Moro. The Moro reflex is present at birth, peaks in the first month of life, and begins to disappear around 2 months of age. It is likely to occur if the infant's head suddenly shifts position, the temperature changes abruptly, or they are startled by a sudden noise. The legs and head extend while the arms jerk up and out with the palms up and thumbs flexed. Shortly afterward the arms are brought together and the hands clench into fists, and the infant cries loudly. [9] The reflex normally disappears by three to four months of age, [10] though it may last up to six months. [11]Bilateral absence of the reflex may be linked to damage to the infant's central nervous system, while a unilateral absence could mean an injury due to birth trauma (e.g., a fractured clavicle or injury to the brachial plexus ). Erb's palsy or some other form of paralysis is also sometimes present in such cases. [10] In human evolutionary history, the Moro reflex may have helped infants cling to the mother while being carried around. If the infant lost its balance, the reflex caused the infant to embrace its mother and regain its hold on the mother's body. [8]Walking/stepping reflex [ edit]Walking reflex The walking or stepping reflex is present at birth, though infants this young cannot support their own weight. When the soles of their feet touch a flat surface they will attempt to walk by placing one foot in front of the other. This reflex disappears around 5–6 months as infants start attempting to walk after this reflex disappears. [12]Rooting reflex [ edit]Rooting reflex The rooting reflex is present at birth (age of appearance 28 weeks) and disappears around four months of age, as it gradually comes under voluntary control. The rooting reflex assists in the act of breastfeeding. A newborn infant will turn its head toward anything that strokes its cheek or mouth, searching for the object by moving its head in steadily decreasing arcs until the object is found. After becoming familiar to responding in this way (if breastfed, approximately three weeks after birth), the infant will move directly to the object without searching. [13]Sucking reflex [ edit]The sucking reflex is common to all mammals and is present at birth. It is linked with the rooting reflex and breastfeeding. It causes the child to instinctively suck anything that touches the roof of their mouth, and simulates the way a child naturally eats. There are two stages of the action: Expression: activated when the nipple is placed between a child's lips and touches their palate. They will instinctively press it between their tongue and palate to draw out the milk. Milking: The tongue moves from areola to nipple, coaxing milk from the mother to be swallowed by the child. Asymmetrical tonic neck reflex [ edit]Tonic neck reflex Main article: Asymmetrical tonic neck reflex The asymmetrical tonic neck reflex, also known as 'fencing posture', is present at one month of age and disappears at around four months. When the child's head is turned to the side, the arm on that side will straighten and the opposite arm will bend (sometimes the motion will be very subtle or slight). If the infant is unable to move out of this position or the reflex continues to be triggered past six months of age, the child may have a disorder of the upper motor neurons. According to researchers [ who? ], the tonic neck reflex is a precursor to the hand/eye coordination of the infant. It also prepares the infant for voluntary reaching. [8]Symmetrical tonic neck reflex [ edit]Main article: Symmetrical tonic neck reflex The symmetric tonic neck reflex normally appears and develops around 6–9 months of age and should integrate by around 12 months. When the child's head flexes forward, extending the back of the neck, the upper extremities will contract and the lower extremities will extend. Conversely, when the child's head is extended backward, contracting the back of the neck, the upper extremities will extend and the lower extremities will contract. This reflex is important to help a child push up onto their hands and knees, but may inhibit actual forward creeping or crawling if it is not properly integrated. If this reflex is retained beyond 2–3 years, it may result, directly or indirectly, in a range of physical and neurological developmental delays. [14] [15]Palmar grasp reflex [ edit]Main article: Palmar grasp reflex Grasp reflex The palmar grasp reflex appears at birth and persists until five or six months of age. When an object is placed in the infant's hand and strokes their palm, the fingers will close and they will grasp it with a palmar grasp. To best observe this reflex, on a bed where the child could safely fall onto a pillow, offer the infant two opposing little fingers (as index fingers are typically too large for the infant to grasp), and gradually lift. The grasp of it may be able to support the child's weight, they may also release their grip suddenly and without warning. The reverse motion can be induced by stroking the back or side of the hand. Plantar reflex [ edit]Main article: Plantar reflex A plantar reflex is a normal reflex that involves plantar flexion of the foot, which moves toes away from the shin and curls them down. An abnormal plantar reflex (aka Babinski Sign) occurs when upper motor neuron control over the flexion reflex circuit is interrupted. This results in a dorsiflexion of the foot (foot angles towards the shin, big toe curls up). This also occurs in babies under c. 1 year, because of low myelination of the corticospinal tracts. As these tracts develop to adult form, the flexion-reflex circuit is inhibited by the descending corticospinal inputs, and the normal plantar reflex develops. [16] Also known as the Babinski reflex, this is a sign of neurological abnormality in adults (e.g., upper motor neuron lesion). [17]Galant reflex [ edit]Main article: Galant reflex The Galant reflex, also known as Galant's infantile reflex, is present at birth and fades between the ages of four to six months. When the skin along the side of an infant's back is stroked, the infant will swing towards the side that was stroked. If the reflex persists past six months of age, it is a sign of pathology. The reflex is named after the Russian neurologist Johann Susman Galant. [18]Swimming reflex [ edit]The swimming reflex involves placing an infant face down in a pool of water. The infant will begin to paddle and kick in a swimming motion. The reflex disappears between 4–6 months. Despite the infant displaying a normal response by paddling and kicking, placing them in water can be a very risky procedure. Infants can swallow a large amount of water while performing this task, therefore caregivers should proceed with caution. It is advisable to postpone swimming lessons for infants until they are at least three months old, because infants submerged in water can die from water intoxication. [8]Babkin reflex [ edit]An infant demonstrating the Babkin reflex: he opens his mouth when pressure is applied to both palms ( 8 seconds ). The Babkin reflex occurs in newborn babies, and describes varying responses to the application of pressure to both palms. Infants may display head flexion, head rotation, opening of the mouth, or a combination of these responses. [19] Smaller, premature infants are more susceptible to the reflex, with an observed occurrence in a child of 26 weeks gestation. [20] It is named after the Russian physiologist, Boris Babkin. Parachute reflex [ edit]This reflex occurs in slightly older infants when the child is held upright and the baby’s body is rotated quickly to face forward (as in falling). The baby will extend their arms forward as if to break a fall, even though this reflex appears long before the baby walks. Other primitive reflexes tested in adults [ edit]As mentioned in the introduction, when primitive reflexes are not being suppressed properly they are generally referred to as frontal release signs (although this may be a misnomer). In addition to the reflexes previously mentioned, they include the palmomental reflex, snout reflex, glabellar reflex or "tap" reflex. Primitive reflexes in high-risk newborns [ edit]The term high-risk newborns refers to neonates with a significant chance of mortality or morbidity, especially within the first month of being born. High-risk newborns will often show abnormal responses of primitive reflexes, or lack a response entirely. Performance of primitive reflexes in high-risk newborns will often vary in response depending on the reflex (e.g., normal Moro reflex may be present, while the walking reflex is absent or abnormal). Normal performance of primitive reflexes in newborns can be linked to a greater likelihood of having higher Apgar scores, higher birth weight, shorter hospitalization time after birth, and a better overall mental state. A recent cross-sectional study assessing primitive reflexes in 67 high-risk newborns, used a sample method to evaluate responses of the sucking, Babinski and Moro reflexes. The results of the study showed that the sucking reflex was performed normally most often (63.5%), followed by the Babinski reflex (58.7%), and the Moro reflex (42.9%). The study concluded that high-risk newborns presented more periodic abnormal and absent responses of primitive reflexes, and that each reflex varied in response. [21]However with the advent of simple and effective methods like Amiel Tison method of neurological assessment, as predictor of neurological sequele in high-risk neonates and infants, the importance of assessment of primitive reflexes is decreasing.

It comes in a purple bottle with neon green on it. I believe you can find it in most stores, probably near the bathroom cleaners. I don't know what's in that stuff, but usually, it'll take anything off of the tub, shower, sink, toilet, etc. You may need to spray it on and let it sit for 15-20 minutes, then clean it. It may take a couple of applications and cleaning to get it off, too, so don't give up if it doesn't work the very first time. I've used that stuff for some of the most awful bathrooms, and it did wonders! (I used to be a maid and clean houses. I worked for a maid service) Another thing we used when I worked there, was comet. I don't imagine that would be good for septic tanks, but I'm not sure? But we would spray the toilets down with Mr. Clean multi-purpose cleaner (the neon yellow one, we watered it down by half into a spray bottle), then we would sprinkle comet in there and use the toilet brush to clean it. It worked okay for most stuff. (I had never used comet cleanser in a toilet before I worked there) The Ka Boom worked for everything, though. It would be worth a try, if the other suggestions don't work. You could also try Clorox clean up cleaner with bleach. Perhaps spray it on and let it sit for a few, then try cleaning it. (But don't ever mix chemicals! Use one thing, or another, or try different ones, but never all at once!) Let us know what ends up working for you!

Empathic Listening
|
Empathic Listening Empathic Listening is a necessity for any Empath. Sure you have the ability to feel what they are feeling, but the act of empathy goes deeper than just this. This is the key to Empathic Counseling, whether you do it online or in person, whether you are reading their words or physically listening to them. Because without this skill, everything else is moot. The Definition of Empathic Listening Empathic listening is defined as: a way of listening and responding to another person that improves mutual understanding and trust. It enabling the listener to receive and accurately interpret the speaker’s message, and then provide an appropriate response. It is also called active listening or reflective listening. The Benefits of Empathic Listening Here is a list of benefits that arise through empathic listening.1. builds trust and respect, 2. enables the one in need to release his/her emotions, 3. reduces tensions, 4. encourages the surfacing of information 5. creates a safe environment for sharing and problem solving The Process of Empathic Listening1. Give the person you are connecting with your full attention. Remember that the person in front of you is your sole focus at this singular moment in time. Multitasking, is a great thing, but not appropriate when working empathically with another person, particularly when practicing empathic listening. Their problem is in your hands, so your understanding and your time are reversely in theirs.2. Do not speak when the other person is in the middle of communicating their issue. Empathic listening means that it is your job to actually hear what is being said, and reach to the heart of the topic to achieve full understanding of the situation. In doing this you need to find out specifics such as who is involved, what the actual problem is, and what are the extenuating circumstances that circle the problem. All of this information goes to help you give the best informed resolution you can find. Without it, perhaps through the act of not listening closely enough, you might miss an intrinsic part of the problem.3. Offer a summary of what you have heard to the speaker, when they are done talking. This means you take what you have heard and reword it, offering them a summarized version of what they have said. It need be no more than an outline going over all of the most important key points of their problem. This affirms to them that you were listening, and reaffirms to yourself what you heard. Steps of Empathy: Empathic Listening This is the first step in Empathy. But it is taken to a different level for an Empath. As the speaker is talking, the Empath, because of their abundant imagination, has the ability to literally place themselves in the shoes of the other person, and see through their eyes. This is just like what one does when reading a book written in the first person perspective. So the Empath is seeing and feeling, based on the words of the speaker and the emotions they are emanating. This gives the Empath understanding on a couple of levels, one being the emotional level, and the other being their motivations. Advertisements Loading...~ by Misuchi Sakurai on March 24, 2009.

Which Gem Is Highest in Terms of Value: Diamond, Emerald or Ruby?
|
The value of any gemstone depends on one or more of four attributes: cut, color, clarity and size. Since large stones are rarer than small ones, the value of a gemstone rises exponentially with its carat weight.credit: Jupiterimages/liquidlibrary/Getty Images A diamond is the gemstone for both the 10th and the 60th wedding anniversaries. Rubiescredit: Kir S-UA/i Stock/Getty Images Rubies are a rare gemstone. Rubies are a relatively rare gemstone. Burmese rubies command the highest price. Stones that are recut or even exported before cutting are worth more per carat than native-cut rubies. According to the International Gem Society, clean, top-color gems command a retail price of $1,000 to $3,000 per carat. Emeraldscredit: özkan aslan/i Stock/Getty Images Emeralds have been thought to protect against epileptic fits when worn or carried. In general, the deeper and more vivid an emerald's color, the higher its value per carat. Most emeralds have small fissures called inclusions; the fewer the inclusions, the more expensive the emerald. A large, deep-green emerald with relatively few inclusions and little secondary coloration may fetch tens of thousands of dollars per carat. Diamondscredit: Mido Semsem/i Stock/Getty Images Diamonds have increased in value. Diamonds have steadily increased in value and show no signs of slowing. The pricing of diamonds can range anywhere from $1,000 to $40,000 per carat, depending on clarity, cut and color.

Some budget conscious consumers stay true to the best method for keeping car-buying costs low; they buy exactly what they can afford, without the need for financing. Others seek vehicles beyond their immediate means, entering into lending arrangements that accommodate purchases exceeding cash on hand. Regardless of which approach is preferred for getting on the road, staying mobile presents its own unique set of considerations. Operating cost calculator helps drivers estimate the amount of money required to keep cars on the road, accounting for several expense categories related to vehicle purchase and operation. Financing Expenses Purchase price and financing charges represent the opening volley for car owners, who continue to rack up charges over the life spans of their vehicles. Several factors influence the cost of buying cars, including principal and interest. Even if you pay cash for your vehicle, the purchase price must be amortized, to determine monthly operating costs associated with the original purchase. True loan amortization is easy to follow, illustrated by schedules governing your loan. Each monthly principal payment provides the first building block for evaluating monthly vehicle operating expenses. Fees and charges associated with loan origination and commitment are also included in the overall cost of buying your car, so they must also be accounted for when calculating total operating costs. Don't forget to include any down payment amounts you make in your comprehensive evaluation of operating costs. Interest is another major influence on vehicle operating costs, representing the additional expenses associated with term repayment. Installment loans like those used to buy cars are figured-in to monthly operating costs using the same number for each month; a benefit of this type of financing alternative. Extended warranties are also offered by car dealerships, covering automobile purchases against unanticipated vehicle problems and repairs. When this optional coverage is selected, it must also be accounted for in total operating cost calculations. Associated Costs Once purchase prices and financing costs are considered, other expenses associated with driving are plugged-in. Sales tax and licensing are some of the first add-ons taxing car-buyers' budgets. Whether paid at dealerships or submitted directly to motor vehicle departments, sales tax and annual licensing fees must be broken down for accuracy. Insurance is an oft-forgotten vehicle expense, surprising some car buyers who fail to assess it in advance. Vehicle make and model, as well as the area where it is housed, each impact the total annual insurance payment required. Performance and luxury vehicle owners expect to pay the highest premiums. Specific mechanical considerations also influence the total operating cost of a vehicle. Mileage, for example, is an important add-on expense, estimated by dividing the average number of miles driven, by the mean fuel requirements during the evaluation period. The prevailing cost of gas is then used to tabulate dollar-amount totals representing the gasoline costs added by your driving regimen. Though they are harder to predict than other automobile operating costs, repair and maintenance expenses place an operating burden on vehicles too. For the most accurate assessment, estimate anticipated costs, to plug-in to operating cost calculator.

The choroid plexus consists of modified ependymal cells. Contents [ hide ]1 Structure1.1 Location1.2 Microanatomy2 Function3 Clinical significance3.1 Choroid plexus cysts3.2 Other4 Etymology5 Additional images6 See also7 References8 Sources9 External links Structure [ edit]Location [ edit]There are four choroid plexuses in the brain, one in each of the ventricles. Choroid plexus is present in all components of the ventricular system except for the cerebral aqueduct, the frontal horn and the occipital horn of the lateral ventricles. [1]Choroid plexus Choroid plexus is found in the superior part of the inferior horn of the lateral ventricle. It follows up along this boundary, continuous with the inferior of the body of the lateral ventricles. It passes into the interventricular foramen, and is present at the top of the third ventricle. There is also choroid plexus in the fourth ventricle, in the section closest to the bottom half of the cerebellum. Microanatomy [ edit]The choroid plexus consists of a layer of cuboidal epithelial cells surrounding a core of capillaries and loose connective tissue. The epithelium of the choroid plexus is continuous with the ependymal cell layer that lines the ventricles. The cells of the choroid plexus are ciliated [2] but, unlike the ependyma, the choroid plexus epithelial layer has tight junctions [3] between the cells on the side facing the ventricle (apical surface). These tight junctions prevent the majority of substances from crossing the cell layer into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF); thus the choroid plexus acts as a blood–CSF barrier. The choroid plexus folds into many villi around each capillary, creating frond-like processes that project into the ventricles. The villi, along with a brush border of microvilli, greatly increases the surface area of the choroid plexus. [ citation needed] CSF is formed as plasma is filtered from the blood through the epithelial cells. Choroid plexus epithelial cells actively transport sodium ions into the ventricles and water follows the resulting osmotic gradient. [4]The choroid plexus consists of many capillaries, separated from the ventricles by choroid epithelial cells. Fluid filters through these cells from blood to become cerebrospinal fluid. There is also much active transport of substances into, and out of, the CSF as it is made. Function [ edit]In addition to CSF production, the choroid plexus act as a filtration system, removing metabolic waste, foreign substances, and excess neurotransmitters from the CSF. In this way the choroid plexus has a very important role in helping to maintain the delicate extracellular environment required by the brain to function optimally. The blood–cerebrospinal fluid barrier is a pair of barriers that separates peripheral and cerebral blood from the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF); [5] it is composed of epithelial cells of the choroid plexus at the peripheral blood–CSF boundary and the arachnoid membrane at the cerebral blood–CSF boundary. [5] The blood–CSF barrier serves the same purpose as the blood–brain barrier, but facilitates the transport of different substances into the brain due to the distinct structural characteristics between the two barrier systems. [5]Clinical significance [ edit]Choroid plexus cysts [ edit]Main article: Choroid plexus cysts During embryological development, some fetuses may form choroid plexus cysts. These fluid-filled cysts can be detected by a detailed second trimester ultrasound. The finding is relatively common, with a prevalence of ~1%. Choroid plexus cysts are usually an isolated finding. [6] The cysts typically disappear later during pregnancy, and are usually harmless. They have no effect on infant and early childhood development. [7]Cysts confers a 1% risk of fetal aneuploidy. [8] The risk of aneuploidy increases to 10.5-12% if other risk factors or ultrasound findings are noted. Size, location, disappearance or progression, and whether the cysts are found on both sides or not do not affect the risk of aneuploidy. 44-50% of Edwards syndrome (trisomy 18) cases will present with choroid plexus cysts, as well 1.4% of Down syndrome (trisomy 21) cases. ~75% of abnormal karyotypes associated with choroid plexus systs are trisomy 18, while the remainder are trisomy 21. [6]Other [ edit]There are three graded types of choroid plexus tumor that mainly affect young children. These malignant neoplasms are rare. Etymology [ edit]Choroid plexus translates from the Latin plexus chorioides, [9] which mirrors Ancient Greek χοριοειδές πλέγμα. [10] The word chorion was used by Galen to refer to the outer membrane enclosing the fetus. Both meanings of the word plexus are given as pleating, or braiding. [10] As often happens language changes and the use of both choroid or chorioid is both accepted. Nomina Anatomica (now Terminologia Anatomica) reflected this dual usage.

What causes a stroke?
|
What causes a stroke?4-minute read Stroke is a largely preventable event. Many risks can be reduced by making lifestyle changes. However, some things that increase the risk of stroke cannot be changed, including: Age – you are more likely to have a stroke if you are over 65 years old, although about 1 in 4 strokes happen in younger people. Family history – if a close relative (parent, grandparent, brother or sister) has had a stroke, your risk is likely to be higher. Gender – strokes are more common in men. Your medical history – if you have previously had a stroke, transient ischaemic attack (TIA) or heart attack, your risk of stroke is higher. If you suspect that you or someone else is having a stroke, call triple zero (000) immediately and ask for an ambulance. Ischaemic strokes Ischaemic strokes, the most common type of stroke, occur when blood clots block the flow of blood in the arteries to the brain. Blood clots typically form in areas where the arteries have been narrowed or blocked by fatty cholesterol-containing deposits known as 'plaques'. This narrowing of the arteries is caused by atherosclerosis. As we get older our arteries become narrower, but certain things can dangerously accelerate the process. These risks include:smokinghigh blood pressure (hypertension)not doing enough physical activityobesityhigh cholesterol levels (often caused by a high-fat diet, but can result from inherited factors)a family history of heart diseaseexcessive alcohol intake (which can also make obesity and high blood pressure worse, as well as causing heart damage and an irregular heart beat). Medical conditions such as insulin resistance, diabetes and chronic kidney disease are also risk factors. An irregular heartbeat (atrial fibrillation) is another possible cause of ischaemic stroke since it can cause blood clots that become lodged in the brain. Atrial fibrillation may be due to:high blood pressurecoronary artery diseasemitral valve disease (disease of the heart valve)cardiomyopathy (wasting of the heart muscle)pericarditis (inflammation of the bag surrounding the heart)hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid gland)excessive alcohol intakedrinking lots of caffeine - for example, tea, coffee and energy drinks. Haemorrhagic strokes Haemorrhagic strokes (also known as 'cerebral haemorrhages' or 'intracranial haemorrhages') usually occur when a blood vessel in the brain bursts and bleeds into the brain (intracerebral haemorrhage). The main cause of haemorrhagic stroke is high blood pressure (hypertension), which can weaken the arteries in the brain and make them prone to split or rupture. Things that increase the risk of developing high blood pressure include:drinking excessive amounts of alcoholsmokinga lack of exercisestress, which may cause a temporary rise in blood pressure.having a family history of high blood pressuregrowing olderbeing overweighthaving diabeteshaving too much salt in the diet Haemorrhagic stroke can also be caused by an aneurysm (the expansion and rupture of a blood vessel) or by badly formed blood vessels within the brain. Treatment with medicines prescribed to prevent blood clots, such as warfarin, increases the risk of haemorrhagic stroke. However, do not stop taking any medication without first discussing it with your doctor. A traumatic head injury can also cause bleeding into the brain. In most cases, the cause is obvious but bleeding into the lining of the brain (subdural haematoma) can occur without any obvious signs of trauma, especially in the elderly. The symptoms and signs can then mimic a stroke. Not sure what to do next? If you are still concerned about what causes a stroke, why not use healthdirect’s online Symptom Checker to get advice on when to seek medical attention. The Symptom Checker guides you to the next appropriate healthcare steps, whether it’s self-care, talking to a health professional, going to a hospital or calling triple zero (000).

You are in: Play | Arnold Lobel Arnold Lobel Biography: When Arnold Lobel was growing up in Schenectady, New York, he was out of school and sick through most of second grade. One of the ways he kept himself occupied was by drawing. Somewhat hesitant about returning to school, he used his animal drawings as a way to make friends with his classmates. It has been said that his sets of books about animal friends, such as Frog and Toad, were based on these experiences. Lobel himself commented "Frog and Toad are really two aspects of myself. "His health improved, and upon graduting high school, he decided to improve his artistic skills and attended Pratt Institute in Brooklyn where he focused on illustration and met his future wife Anita, also a talented illustrator. They settled in Brooklyn and had two children Adrianne and Adam. The Prospect Park Zoo was right across the meadow from their apartment, and the family would go there often. These trips to the zoo gave him the idea for the Mister Muster book. He dedicated it to Anita, Adrianna, and Adam. He and his wife worked in the same studio, on their own projects and on collaborations. Lobel's books are warm, funny tales of love and friendship, most featuring animals as the main characters. His book Frog and Toad was a Caldecott Honor book in 1971. His lighthearted yet morally instructive book Fables won the Caldecott Medal in 1981. He has also illustrated many books by other authors, including Charlotte Zolotow's The Quarreling Book. Lobel called himself a daydreamer instead of an author or an artist. He would see the pictues in his mind before he would think up the words to go with them. "I cannot think of any work that could be more agreeable and fun than making books for children." Lobel has said. He died in 1987 leaving a legacy of almost 100 books that he had written or illustrated. For a complete list of works by Lobel and suggestions for further reading, please see these links: Third Book of Junior Authors, Author Biohttp://www.edupaperback.org/authorbios/Lobel_Arnold.html ERIC Bibliographyhttp://www.indiana.edu/~eric_rec/ieo/bibs/lobel.html Parents' Choice commended books by Arnold Lobel: Ming Lo Moves the Mountain (1982 Parents' Choice Gold Award) Arnold Lobel.

[This title is currently out of print. Please check your local library or an out of print book dealer to locate a copy. ]The Rose in My Garden (1984 Parents' Choice Gold Award) Arnold Lobel. Illustrated by Anita Lobel. Mulberry Books, ISBN: 0688122655, $6.95. Ages 4-8. This horticultural mini-guide is a latter-day cumulative rhyme patterned, with humor and grace, after This is the House that Jack Built. Like Mistress Mary, Anita Lobel grows a decorative flower garden, a new blossom on every new page. The viewer's close attention is rewarded with the surprise discovery of an added small creature per page. The build-up is slow and quiet, thus allowing an attentive listener to savor the name of each exotic bloom. The climax, however, is fast, funny and not what you might expect. A special book from a special pair of collaborators. Reviewed by Selma G. Lanes (1984 Parents' Choice)A Three Hat Day (1985 Parents' Choice Gold Award) Laura Geringer. Illustrated by Arnold Lobel. Harper Trophy, ISBN: 0064431576"R. R. Pottle the Third loved hats." His father "collected canes," his mother "liked umbrellas." But "After a happy life together, Mother and Father died." R. R. is lonely without them. Browsing in a hat store one day he meets Isabel, who recognizes a kindred hat lover. They dance down the road in the rain together. Time passes and R. R. Pottle the Fourth is born. It turns out she loves shoes. The sweet humor of this is decorated and enhanced by Arnold Lobel's full color accompaniment: the Pottle mansion is tastefully decorated in umbrellas and canes; R. R. the Third picks out a hat every morning by casting for it, while still in bed, with his fishing rod. Lobel has a gift for silliness that is never carried too far. Reviewed by Karla Kuskin (1985 Parents' Choice)The Arnold Lobel Book of Mother Goose (1987 Parents' Choice Gold Award) Arnold Lobel Knopf, ISBN 0679887369The day Mother Goose met Mr. Lobel was a fortunate day. To make such handsome order out of so many bits and pieces, sayings and verses, is a Herculean task, but Arnold Lobel makes it look easy, as he organizes, decorates, and innovates. There are marvelous double-page spreads devoted to just one verse, cunning groupings in which one illustration serves a fellowship of rhymes, and spreads that use framed miniatures to accompany unrelated lyrics. Lobel makes himself the master of each approach. His illustrations for "The House That Jack Built" and "This is the Key of the Kingdom" are lessons in making graphic choreography of repeating verses. "Wee Willie Winkle" may be unrivaled in "Wee Willie Winkie" annals, and "The Old Woman Tossed Up In A Basket" is a symphony of windswept curves. "The 12 Days of Christmas" ought to be published on its own. Reviewed by Karla Kuskin (1987 Parents' Choice)The Devil and Mother Crump (1987 Parents' Choice Gold Award) Valerie Scho Carey. Illustrated by Arnold Lobel. Harper Collins, ISBN 0064432785Mother Crump was so mean "her husband and children ran away from home just to get shut of her." But that doesn't faze her. She is a "baker woman" whose disposition and bread peel would qualify as dangerous weapons. She is quite capable of giving the Devil his due and does exactly that when he comes calling. In fact, by the time Mother Crump kicks off, Lucifer is so wary that he turns her away from his domain with one red-hot coal and the advice "to go start a Hell of your own. "Arnold Lobel has less trouble with her. Working in watercolor and shading with a black lithographic pencil, he sets her in darkly decorative pages bursting with draped draperies, furled furbelows, funny faces and his own brand of medieval atmosphere.

Non-visa restrictions [ edit]This section is transcluded from Non-visa travel restrictions. ( edit | history)Passport validity length [ edit]Many countries require passports to be valid for at least 6 months upon arrival. [344] Note that some nations have bilateral agreements with other countries to shorten the passport validity cut-off period for each other's citizens. [345] [346]Countries requiring passports to be valid at least 6 months on arrival include Afghanistan, Algeria, Anguilla, Bahrain, Bhutan, Botswana, British Virgin Islands, Brunei, Cambodia, Cameroon, Cayman Islands, Central African Republic, Chad, Comoros, Côte d'Ivoire, Curaçao, Ecuador, Egypt, El Salvador, Equatorial Guinea, Fiji, Gabon, Guinea Bissau, Guyana, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq (except when arriving at Basra and Erbil or Sulaimaniyah ), Israel, Jordan, Kenya, Kiribati, Laos, Madagascar, Malaysia, Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Myanmar, Namibia, Nicaragua, Nigeria, Oman, Palau, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Qatar, Rwanda, Saint Lucia, Samoa, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Solomon Islands, Somalia, Somaliland, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Suriname, Taiwan, Tanzania, Thailand, Timor-Leste, Tokelau, Tonga, Tuvalu, Uganda, United Arab Emirates, Vanuatu, Venezuela, Vietnam, Yemen and Zimbabwe. [347]Countries requiring passports valid for at least 4 months on arrival include Micronesia and Zambia. Countries requiring passports valid for at least 3 months on arrival include European Union countries (except Denmark, Republic of Ireland and the United Kingdom, and except for EU / EEA / Swiss citizens), Albania, Belarus, Georgia, Honduras, Iceland, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Liechtenstein, Moldova, Monaco, Nauru, Panama, Saint Barthélemy, San Marino, Switzerland and the United Arab Emirates. Bermuda requires passports to be valid for at least 45 days upon entry. Countries that require a passport validity of at least 1 month on arrival include Eritrea, Hong Kong, Macao, New Zealand and South Africa. [348]Other countries require either a passport valid on arrival or a passport valid throughout the period of the intended stay. Blank passport pages [ edit]Many countries require a minimum number of blank pages in the passport being presented, generally one or two pages. [349] Endorsement pages which oftentimes appear after the visa pages are not counted. Vaccination [ edit]Many African countries, including Angola, Benin, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Republic of the Congo, Côte d'Ivoire, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Ghana, Guinea, Liberia, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Rwanda, São Tomé and Príncipe, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Uganda, and Zambia require all incoming passengers to have a current International Certificate of Vaccination. Some other countries require vaccination only if the passenger is coming from an infected area. [350]Israeli stamps [ edit]Kuwait, [351] Lebanon, [352] Libya, [353] Saudi Arabia, [354] Sudan, [355] Syria [356] and Yemen [357] do not allow entry to people with passport stamps from Israel or whose passports have either a used or an unused Israeli visa, or where there is evidence of previous travel to Israel such as entry or exit stamps from neighbouring border posts in transit countries such as Jordan and Egypt. To circumvent this Arab League boycott of Israel, the Israeli immigration services have now mostly ceased to stamp foreign nationals' passports on either entry to or exit from Israel. Since 15 January 2013, Israel no longer stamps foreign passports at Ben Gurion Airport, giving passengers a card instead: " Since January 2013 a pilot scheme has been introduced whereby visitors are given an entry card instead of an entry stamp on arrival. You should keep this card with your passport until you leave. This is evidence of your legal entry into Israel and may be required, particularly at any crossing points into the Occupied Palestinian Territories. " [358] Passports are still (as of 22 June 2017) stamped at Erez when travelling into and out of Gaza. Also, passports are still stamped (as of 22 June 2017) at the Jordan Valley/Sheikh Hussein and Yitzhak Rabin/Arava land borders with Jordan. Iran: Admission is refused for holders of passports containing an Israeli visa/stamp in the last 12 months Armenian ethnicity [ edit]Due to a state of war existing between Armenia and Azerbaijan, the government of Azerbaijan not only bans entry of citizens from Armenia, but also all citizens and nationals of any other country who are of Armenian descent, to the Republic of Azerbaijan [359] [360] (although there have been exceptions, notably for Armenia's participation at the 2015 European Games held in Azerbaijan). Azerbaijan also strictly bans any visit by foreign citizens to the separatist region of Nagorno-Karabakh [361] (the de facto independent Republic of Artsakh ), its surrounding territories and the Azerbaijani exclaves of Karki, Yuxarı Əskipara, Barxudarlı and Sofulu which are de jure part of Azerbaijan but under control of Armenia, without the prior consent of the government of Azerbaijan. Foreign citizens who enter these occupied territories will be permanently banned from entering the Republic of Azerbaijan [362] and will be included in their "list of personae non gratae ". [363] As of late 2017 the list contains 699 persons. Upon request, the Republic of Artsakh authorities may attach their visa and/or stamps to a separate piece of paper in order to avoid detection of travel to their country. Persona non grata [ edit]The government of a country can declare a diplomat persona non grata, banning their entry into that country. In non-diplomatic use, the authorities of a country may also declare a foreigner persona non grata permanently or temporarily, usually because of unlawful activity. Attempts to enter the Gaza strip by sea may attract a 10-year ban on entering Israel. [364]Fingerprinting [ edit]Several countries including Argentina, Brunei, Cambodia, Japan, Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Korea and the United States demand all travellers, or all foreign travellers, to be fingerprinted on arrival. [365] [366] [367] [368] [369] [370] [371]Criminal record [ edit]Some countries (for example, Canada and the United States [372]) routinely deny entry to non-citizens who have a criminal record. Right to consular protection in non-EU countries [ edit]Countries with Slovak diplomatic missions When in a non-EU country where there is no Slovak embassy, Slovak citizens as EU citizens have the right to get consular protection from the embassy of any other EU country present in that country.

October 2014 Issue Eating Disorders and GI Symptoms — Understand the Link Between Them and How to Treat Patients By Kate Scarlata, RDN, LDN, and Marci E. Anderson, CEDRD, LDN, c PTToday’s Dietitian Vol. 16 No. 10 P. 14Eating disorders are uncommon, but they often are undertreated and accompanied by gastrointestinal (GI) distress. Lifetime prevalence of anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge eating disorder is less than 6% in women and less than 3% in men, according to a 2007 national survey.1 Yet researchers from the University of Australia found that 98% of 101 female patients admitted to an eating disorder unit fit the criteria for functional gut disorders, and 50% met the criteria specifically for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).2GI disorders found concomitantly in individuals with eating disorders include heartburn, bloating, constipation, dysphagia, and anorectal pain.2 Functional gut disorders constitute GI symptoms without evidence of anatomical GI disease and are well-acknowledged characteristics of patients with eating disorders. Moreover, pelvic floor dysfunction may be a contributing factor to the abdominal distention seen in patients with eating disorders.3In clinical practice, dietitians working with eating disorder patients have observed coexistent GI problems. Studies have shown that satiation and bloating significantly are higher in people with eating disorders.4 The presence of IBS in eating disorder patients is strongly correlated to disordered eating and psychological issues, such as anxiety and obsessive-compulsive tendencies. The worse the quality of life relating to the eating disorder, the worse the IBS quality of life and IBS symptoms.5 Altered eating behavior is strongly associated with altered gut sensitivity and GI motility. Psychiatric comorbidity, such as anxiety and food phobias along with GI alterations, set the stage for potential persistent GI dysfunction.6Understanding the GI Connection Typical eating disorder symptoms disrupt normal digestive patterns and may cause mild to severe GI distress. Eating disorder symptoms can include severe chronic restriction, chaotic and unpredictable eating patterns (eg, restriction during the day with bingeing at night), self-induced purging, and laxative abuse as well as excessive intake of caffeinated or carbonated beverages and artificial sweeteners via low-calorie foods, beverages, or gum. University of Sydney researchers evaluated GI-symptom response to a dietary challenge of fructose and sorbitol in individuals with an eating disorder and healthy controls. More than 58% of eating disorder patients exhibited GI consequences due to the sorbitol-fructose challenge, compared with only one (5%) of the healthy controls. Symptom development was more common in those with anorexia nervosa.7 The impact of these findings may be significant to the treatment of individuals with an eating disorder who often drink sugar-free diet products, which can be rich in sorbitol, or rely on fruits as lower-calorie food choices that contain excess fructose, such as apples, pears, and mangos. Sorbitol is found in sugar-free gum and mints; stone fruits, including peaches, nectarines, and plums; apples; pears; and even honey. The role of the gut microbiota, impacted by diet, also may play a role in eating disorders and GI symptoms. In clinical observation, chronic food restriction leads to intolerance of foods that were previously tolerated. This may be due to the alteration in digestive enzyme production or changes in gut flora, which can impact digestion. Gut bacteria can induce autoantibodies that bind to brain targets and impact behavior in susceptible individuals. The concept of the gut forming the center of an integrated gut-brain-energy axis, which modulates appetite, metabolism, and digestion, is evolving. “I believe one of the most promising areas of research in psychiatry is the role of gut bacteria on mood and disordered eating,” says James Greenblatt, MD, chief medical officer of Walden Behavioral Care in Waltham, Massachusetts. “There is clear evidence that bacteria in our gut can affect our metabolism and our behavior. Metabolites of gut bacteria can disrupt the synthesis and breakdown of neurotransmitters leading to depression, anxiety, and agitation. Treating the gut with probiotics results in improvement in mood and behavior. Each patient has a unique gut environment. Being able to test for abnormal bacteria in the gut can lead to significant improvement in the treatment of eating disorders and other psychiatric illnesses.”Identifying Potential Triggers The RD’s role is paramount in bridging the gap between GI-symptom control and eating disorder nutrition therapy. Identifying and modifying dietary triggers should be initiated when the eating disorder is stable and the eating disorder health care team feels that adjusting the diet won’t exacerbate the eating disorder. Below are screening and assessment questions dietitians should review with patients to identify the underlying cause of the GI problem.• Step 1: Review family and personal history of GI concerns. Clarify whether the patient’s symptoms existed before or after the start of his or her eating disorder.• Step 2: Identify specific GI symptoms by asking the patient if he or she is experiencing these common GI complaints: gas, bloating, heartburn, dysphagia, constipation, diarrhea, or incontinence. Kacey Morrow, RD, LD, CLT, a dietitian at Su Nu Wellness in Minneapolis and Minnetonka, Minnesota, recommends asking very specific questions about symptoms. “How long has the symptom been present? When do they appear? Before, during, or after eating? Finding out what symptoms someone is experiencing and when they begin allows me to determine what the possible issues could be, and if needed, which part of the GI tract I need to assess further.”• Step 3: Screen for eating disorder behaviors such as patterns of food restriction, bingeing, purging, and laxative/diuretic use; fluid patterns, including coffee, tea, diet soda, carbonated water, and excessive intake of artificial sweeteners; erratic patterns of meal timing and macronutrient balance; excessive gum chewing; and excessive fiber consumption, particularly through diet foods with isolated fiber additives such as chicory root (inulin), which can contribute to gas and bloating.• Step 4: Consider additional causes of GI symptoms such as anxiety and medication use. Mary Mahoney, RDN, a nutrition consultant at Santa Clara University in California, encourages patients to work with a mental health professional. “I always recommend my [eating disorder] clients work with a mental health professional to decrease their anxiety. In my experience, anxiety makes eating difficult and GI upset worse.”• Step 5: Refer patients to a gastroenterologist for further evaluation if they present with alarming features such as blood or mucus in the stool, persistent unexplained vomiting, abdominal pain, a palpable mass, a family history of inflammatory bowel disease, or celiac disease. Additional testing may include an assessment for celiac disease, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, lactose intolerance, fructose malabsorption, gut motility disorder, and pelvic floor dysfunction. Susan Kelly, MD, a gastroenterologist at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston, stresses the importance of teamwork. “Food frequently exacerbates symptoms of IBS. Likewise, food can exacerbate symptoms and illicit fear in patients with eating disorders. Both conditions [eating disorders and functional GI disorders] can lead to serious dietary complications rooted in the complex neurobiology of the brain-gut axis. Treatment requires cooperation and teamwork between dietitians and physicians.”Treatment of GI Distress When treating eating disorder symptoms and GI concerns simultaneously, RDs must provide clients and patients with education, resources, and continuous coaching on the importance of eating consistent and balanced meals and snacks to decrease GI symptoms. Following a structured eating plan will allow them to train their gut, which will lead to symptom reduction. To prevent triggering eating disorder behavior, RDs shouldn’t recommend strict elimination diets in this population, because they can exacerbate restrictive eating patterns. Dietitians who specialize in digestive health can provide general guidelines to modify intake of common dietary triggers, including sorbitol and excess fructose or lactose sources, or adjust fiber intake and fluids as needed to alleviate constipation as they work closely with an eating disorder therapist or eating disorder dietitian. Adding adjunctive therapies such as gut-directed hypnosis, yoga, probiotics, or digestive enzymes also can ease GI distress. Dietary strategies such as a low-FODMAP (Fermentable oligo-, di-, and monosaccharides and polyols) diet for the IBS patient may be helpful but should be used only when the eating disorder is stable and the eating disorder dietitian and therapist feel the patient is ready to be placed on this type of diet. GI Expertise Required The role of the eating disorder dietitian is complex, as it requires knowledge of medical nutrition therapy for the eating disorder and comorbid medical and mental health diagnoses as well as psychological awareness and counseling skills. Given the frequency at which eating disorder patients experience GI disturbances, it’s imperative that RDs continue to develop the skills to effectively treat both simultaneously. Through the use of a multidisciplinary health care team as well as consistent follow-up and communication with patients, it’s possible to reduce GI symptoms while effectively supporting patients in their recovery from their eating disorder.— Kate Scarlata, RDN, LDN, is a Boston-based dietitian in private practice and the coauthor of 21-Day Tummy, a New York Times bestseller.— Marci E.

[Sidebar]CASE STUDY A patient presented to her RD with an eight-year history of restrictive-type eating patterns, generalized anxiety disorder, and complaints of severe bloating, gastrointestinal (GI) pain, and constipation. After a thorough assessment, the dietitian learned the following:• Anxiety and GI symptoms predated the eating disorder although there was no strong family history of GI disturbances.• The patient experienced significant symptom relief while in residential treatment for her eating disorder.• The patient reports drinking 64 oz of diet soda daily and chewing gum excessively to minimize hunger.• She is following approximately 50% of her meal plan and typically eats every six to seven hours.• The patient reports consuming four to five servings of dairy per day with very little alternative protein sources. The RD asked the patient to make an appointment with her primary care physician to be tested for lactose intolerance and celiac disease as precautionary measures. Her tests came back negative. The dietitian provided the patient with education regarding the challenges her eating disorder behaviors were creating for her GI system. Due to her GI distress, the patient was willing to increase her meal plan compliance by eating every three to four hours and significantly decreasing her consumption of diet soda and artificial sweeteners. The RD also suggested she take digestive enzymes before meals and a daily probiotic. Moreover, the dietitian and a therapist worked with the patient and suggested she take a premeal antianxiety medication and perform deep breathing exercises to decrease her stress response to food. Within one month, she reported a near disappearance of all GI disturbances.— KS and MEA

Edit Ward Bond Biography Showing all 36 items Jump to: Overview (4) | Mini Bio (1) | Spouse (2) | Trade Mark (2) | Trivia (27)Overview (4)Born April 9, 1903 in Benkelman, Nebraska, USADied November 5, 1960 in Dallas, Texas, USA (heart attack)Birth Name Wardell E. Bond Height 6' 2" (1.88 m)Mini Bio (1)Gruff, burly American character actor. Born in 1903 in Benkelman, Nebraska (confirmed by Social Security records; sources stating 1905 or Denver, Colorado are in error.) Bond grew up in Denver, the son of a lumberyard worker. He attended the University of Southern California, where he got work as an extra through a football teammate who would become both his best friend and one of cinema's biggest stars: John Wayne. Director John Ford promoted Bond from extra to supporting player in the film Salute (1929), and became another fast friend. An arrogant man of little tact, yet fun-loving in the extreme, Bond was either loved or hated by all who knew him. His face and personality fit perfectly into almost any type of film, and he appeared in hundreds of pictures in his more than 30-year career, in both bit parts and major supporting roles. In the films of Wayne and Ford, particularly, he was nearly always present. Among his most memorable roles are John L. Sullivan in Gentleman Jim (1942), Det. Tom Polhaus in The Maltese Falcon (1941) and the Rev. Capt. Samuel Johnson Clayton The Searchers (1956). An ardent but anti-intellectual patriot, he was perhaps the most vehement proponent, among the Hollywood community, of blacklisting in the witch hunts of the 1950s, and he served as a most unforgiving president of the ultra-right-wing Motion Picture Alliance for the Preservation of American Ideals. In the mid-'50s he gained his greatest fame as the star of TV's Wagon Train (1957). During its production, Bond traveled to Dallas, Texas, to attend a football game and died there in his hotel room of a massive heart attack.- IMDb Mini Biography By: Jim Beaver <[email protected]>Spouse (2)Mary Louise May ( 23 August 1954 - 5 November 1960) (his death)Doris Sellers Childs ( 28 April 1936 - 7 July 1944) (divorced)Trade Mark (2)Often played policemen, soldiers, sailors and cowboys. Gruff resonant voice. Trivia (27)A popular urban myth holds that on the day he died, Bond was scheduled to meet singer Johnny Horton in Dallas to sign a contract to appear on Wagon Train (1957). Horton died in an auto accident, hit by a drunk driver, at 1:30 a.m. and Bond died in Dallas at noon the same day. However, Bond was only the star of the series and not a producer, so he had no say in casting. Many sources incorrectly quote 1905, and/or Denver, Colorado, USA regarding his birth. Entered films in 1928 while attending the University of Southern California. Family rumor is that Bond was a roommate at USC with John Wayne, who convinced him to go into acting. They were apparently best friends; one of their favorite activities in their youth was to go to bars, get drunk, and start fights. On a hunting trip, he was accidentally shot by John Wayne. Bond left Wayne the shotgun in his will. In The Wings of Eagles (1957), Bond played his friend, director John Ford, under the character name John Dodge (the name itself was a play on American automobile names. Ford was a real-life friend of the film's subject character). The set dressing, wardrobe, and Oscars in the scene are all actually Ford's. He was awarded a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 6933 Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood, California on February 8, 1960. The muppet "Bert" on Sesame Street (1969) was rumored to be named after Bond's character (Bert the cop) in It's a Wonderful Life (1946). Bond appears in the most films (seven) of the American Film Institute's list of the 100 Greatest American Movies: It Happened One Night (1934), Bringing Up Baby (1938), Gone with the Wind (1939), The Grapes of Wrath (1940), The Maltese Falcon (1941), It's a Wonderful Life (1946) and The Searchers (1956). Was an epileptic, a closely guarded secret not made public until many years after his death. Inducted into the Hall of Great Western Performers of the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum in 2001. Although John Ford mocked many actors mercilessly (including John Wayne ), Bond probably was on the receiving end of the worst verbal punishment from the director (who counted Bond among his favorite actors). At Bond's funeral, Ford walked up to Andy Devine and said, "Now YOU'RE the biggest asshole I know.". Although his career was cut short by his premature death in 1960 at age 57, he was one of the most prolific of Hollywood's actors over a period of 30 years. He regularly appeared in 10 to 20 films per year, with the record year for him being 1935, when he acted in 30 movies. Worked with director John Ford on 26 films. Few, if any, actors, have appeared in so many films for a single director. On his way to John Wayne 's wedding, he was hit by a car but performed his duty as best man on crutches. Bond's deep involvement in ultra-right-wing politics--and especially his enthusiastic efforts to blacklist suspected Communists and anyone with "progressive" political views in Hollywood--earned him the enmity of many in the film business. For several years, he could not get any work in films other than those of his right-wing friends like John Wayne, and he believed that "liberal" producers and directors blacklisted him. Then in 1957, at age 54, he made an enormous comeback as Major Seth Adams in Wagon Train (1957), and was finally a star in his own right. Bond has been officially remembered with a television star on Hollywood Boulevard, by being inducted into the Hall of Great Western Performers at the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum, and by a Ward Bond Memorial Park in his birthplace of Benkelman, Nebraska. However, he is probably most fondly remembered for his enormous output of solid work, with great respect by the industry. Died at the Town House Motor Hotel on 2914 Harry Hines Boulevard in Dallas, Texas. Campaigned for Republican Richard Nixon in the 1960 presidential election. John Wayne gave the eulogy at his funeral. According to Orson Welles, one night at Chasen's Restaurant in Hollywood, Bond cut off Welles' tie. Once while on location, John Ford had a photo taken of himself and John Wayne standing on either side of the rear end of a horse. He sent the photo to Bond with the caption, "Thinking of you". He appeared in three Best Picture Academy Award winners: It Happened One Night (1934), You Can't Take It with You (1938) and Gone with the Wind (1939). Irving Bacon, Eddy Chandler and Wallis Clark also appeared in all three films. He appeared in 13 films that were nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture, Arrowsmith (1931), Lady for a Day (1933), It Happened One Night (1934), Dead End (1937), You Can't Take It with You (1938), Gone with the Wind (1939), The Long Voyage Home (1940), The Grapes of Wrath (1940), The Maltese Falcon (1941), Sergeant York (1941), It's a Wonderful Life (1946), The Quiet Man (1952) and Mister Roberts (1955). Bond officially did not have any children. However United States census records from 1940 show a son, Kenneth Bond, approximately 12 years old, living in his household. He had been diagnosed with high blood pressure but refused to cut back his work schedule on Wagon Train (1957). John Ford owned eight acres in Receda, which became a rehabilitation center for both veterans of Ford's movie and veterans of U. S. wars. Syd Kronenthal was the supervisor - he was also hired to help Marlon Brando play a paraplegic in his first film role - and he remembered the Ford team getting drunk all the time: "They were all very right-wing, and when they got loaded they'd start spewing anti-Semitic remarks. The worst of them was Victor Mc Laglen, and Ward Bond was anti-Semitic as hell. They either didn't know I was Jewish or they forgot. ".

You may want passport for cruise to Alaska

Environment Travel You may want passport for cruise to Alaska Originally published June 28, 2009 at 12:00 am Updated June 26, 2009 at 2:32 pm Q: We are going on a cruise from Seattle to Alaska. Our last stop is in Victoria, B. C. Do we need a passport to enter or leave the ship there? By Kristin Jackson Q: We are going on a cruise from Seattle to Alaska. Our last stop is in Victoria, B. C. Do we need a passport to enter or leave the ship there?— Shirley Kramer, Omaha A: New rules took effect on June 1 that require more standardized ID for crossing land/sea borders between the U. S. and Canada. In general, travelers must have a passport, passport card, an enhanced driver’s license (only available in a few states) or one of the “trusted traveler” cards for prescreened travelers. However, there are some exceptions — plus some confusion in regard to cruises. For “closed-loop” sailings such as Seattle-Alaska cruises that depart and return to the same U. S. port, U. S. officials say that a passport or one of the new alternative documents isn’t required — that a birth certificate and government-issued photo ID, such as a driver’s license, are sufficient (those documents are needed to prove both a traveler’s identity and citizenship). However, some cruise lines strongly urge cruise passengers to have passports. So check — and double-check — with your cruise line. (And you must have ID even if you’re not planning to get off the ship in Victoria. )Most Read Life Stories Spring 2018 Seattle Restaurant Week: 14 best overall values Edouardo Jordan's June Baby named a Food & Wine Restaurant of the Year Washington state says no to spraying neurotoxic pesticide on oyster beds As he hangs up his hat, Seattle Times travel editor names Top 10 trips VIEWDoes Seattle have a poke problem? Unlimited Digital Access: $1 for 4 weeks You can get information on the new rules, and how to obtain a passport or passport card, in a recent article of mine. Go to www.seattletimes.com and search for: Kristin Jackson and passports. My advice: Given the confusion over ID requirements for Seattle-Alaska cruises, go ahead and get the passport card (good for land/sea travel to Canada and Mexico, but not any international air travel). It’s cheaper than a passport, and you’d need it if you ever took a driving trip to Canada. But if you think you might take a flight anywhere out of the U. S. in the coming years, get the traditional passport, which works for all international travel. Kristin Jackson: [email protected]; on Twitter: @NWTravelers.

I figured the $160 investment was worth the knowledge I would gain and the time and materials I might save. When I recieved the scope I opened it immediately and began inspecting one particular light fixture that has been bothering me for quite some time. Two things became readily apparent: 1. The 18" shaft isn't long enough. I should have sprung for the longer one. 2. The shaft is not as flexible as I might have expected, and it is actually a bit bulky with a diameter of approximately 3/8", so you won't be slipping this turkey into little cracks. It seems even too wide to scope it into the dipstick tube in an engine - so I'd guess its use for this application might be to have a look through the throttle body, or through a spark plug hole to see why you have no compression. But even in this case, since the tube has limited flexibility, you'll be able to see a dent in a piston but you might not be able to bend it sharply enough to see a bent valve, i.e, it won't bend at a right angle in so short of a distance. Still quite handy, but a little more limited than I expected. 3. Regarding the focal length, it seems to range from a few inches out to right at the objective. Suppose you fish into a wall outlet and you want to see if there is a fireblock a few feet up the wall... it seems like you probably won't be able to focus on it and you'll just have a black and brown blurry image. To see that far, you have to have a closer access point. 4. Due to the eyepiece, you still have to contort yourself into various positions to get an angle on your objective - unfortunately it's not as easy as the promotional pictures show. Regarding some of my criticisms, a visit to the Provision website showed me that there are accessories to correct for some of these deficiencies. When I bought it I should have been a little more critical with my research. For some reason I pictured a longer, thinner inspection tube with much better articulation. Nonetheless, this is a nice tool that is compromised only by a limited budget. For $1000, I'm sure there are much better tools of this type, but this isn't too bad for $160. I wish it was better and cheaper, but perhaps this tool is just a few years too early. I could easily picture this in the tool kit for a well-prepared home inspector, or maybe an energy auditor who is looking for ways to augment a thermal camera study. A mechanic who would like to save the labor of removing the cylinder head might like it, and it could come in handy for inspection of the catalytic converter without removal. The LED lights provide ample illumination. Update: June 2008. I recently used this tool to inspect an engine I was rebuilding. My timing belt broke, and I wanted to see if the valves came into contact with the pistons. I simply removed the sparkplugs and rotated the crank with a wrench while peering into the spark plug hole with this 'scope. I was able to focus on the pistons and confirm that they were not damaged, and it saved me the labor of removing the cylinder head. This is a handy tool for car work!

Yes No Report abuse Don K3.0 out of 5 stars It works as advertied April 10, 2013Verified Purchase If you have a need to go around corners, or bend the end for more visability, better go for a more expensive one. The first 6 inches cannot bend, making it difficult to get around wall spaces . Optics are what you could expect from a less expensive unit,but it does work for most things. Consider your needs closely whenyou look at this one. Read more Comment Was this review helpful to you?

Yes No Report abuse Steven Marton3.0 out of 5 stars Expensive and not as useful as you'd hope February 9, 2013I bought this for inspecting my cylinders. It worked fine on a DOHC engine. Not so well on a small block chevy with angled spark plugs. I couldn't see 60% of the pitons and walls. The head and even the stem are too rigid to be fully maneuverable. It's also not very detailed, as you only have a few fiberoptic strands to transmit "pixels", so it's hard to tell if you're looking at scuff marks or just strange reflections. It does have nearly infinite focal range, though. I had to take it apart one time to fix the light switch, because I had to press extremely hard to get decent intensity from it. It's an extremely simple device, essentially just a fiberoptic cable and super simple lens. Pretty cheaply made. Nothing worth $150. My next purchase is going to be a digital one with manual focus (fixed focus is too limiting) that's thin to fit in spark plug holes, and preferably with a right angle mirror. Haven't quite found the perfect one yet. Read more Comment One person found this helpful. Was this review helpful to you?

Works great until the bulbs burn out in which replacements are expensive and hard to locate (-1 star). Gave up on locating a bulb for this online when my bulb burned out - was two weeks out through the supplier and was too expensive. I fixed this roadblock by slightly modifying the case and soldering in an 8mm 3v white led bulb from Amazon in it's place. Works like it should and no burned out halogens anymore.

Historic Origins of Alabama's Boundaries
|
Historic Origins of Alabama's Boundaries David M. Robb, Huntsville, Alabama Alabama's complex boundaries reflect the rich history of the state. Diverse events from 1663 to 1826 have created these limits, reflecting a wide array of issues and factors. Rivers and other geographic features, evolving cartographic knowledge, Native American traditions, colonial aspirations, national politics, international confrontations and diplomacy, ambitious land speculations, territorial squabbles, and, ultimately, official negotiations—all played a role in setting its borders with neighboring states. Generally, Alabama's northern and southern boundaries originate in the colonial era, its eastern and western boundaries reflect Indian traditions and territorial issues, and the state's southern footprint to the Gulf of Mexico results from deft international diplomacy. The Northern Boundary1734 Map of America Alabama's basic boundaries were shaped during North America's colonial era. In March 1663, King Charles II of England created the Carolina colony from Virginia and set the 31st parallel, now Alabama's southern boundary with Florida, as the southern limit of Carolina. In 1729, the colonies of North Carolina and South Carolina were formed from the Carolina colony, but no border was set between North Carolina and South Carolina west of the Appalachian Mountains. Later, in 1732, the Georgia Colony was created entirely from South Carolina; thus, Alabama ultimately would be formed from Georgia. Finally, in 1735, the North and South Carolina colonies agreed on the 35th parallel as the border between them west of the Appalachians, thus leading to the 35th parallel as the border between western North Carolina, which later became Tennessee, and western Georgia, which later became Alabama and Mississippi. The Nor thwestern "Ear"Alabama's Northwestern "Ear"The west and east limits of Alabama's northern boundary reflect Native American traditions, Georgia's attempts to sell its western lands, and geographic misunderstanding. For local Indian groups, the Tennessee River was an important natural border. Downstream from Muscle Shoals, it historically separated the Chickasaw Nation to the west from the Cherokee Nation to the east. This traditional Indian boundary is the apparent precedent for the western boundaries of two Georgia land companies of the early federal era. Georgia entered the union in 1788 as a small coastal state but eagerly claimed vast new western lands extending to the Mississippi River that had been off limits to white settlers under British colonial rule. In 1789, an ambitious Georgia governor began to sell large tracts of this area, culminating in controversial sales in 1795 to four land companies of 35 million acres in present-day Mississippi and Alabama. Involving all kinds of deceit, bribery, and corruption, this debacle, known now as the Yazoo Land Fraud, ended in 1796 when a newly elected Georgia legislature rescinded the fraudulent land sales. Ultimately, Georgia yielded all claims to its former western lands to the federal government in 1802. However, these two short-lived Georgia land companies, the 1789 Tennessee Yazoo Company and the 1795 Tennessee Company, apparently determined the limits of Alabama's north boundary. Their western boundary, going south from the 35th parallel, followed the Tennessee River upriver about nine miles to the mouth of Bear Creek, submerged under present-day Pickwick Lake in the twentieth century. In 1817, this previously recorded land survey feature was the apparent precedent for the Tennessee River part of the border set by Congress between the new state of Mississippi and the Alabama Territory. Thus, Alabama's "northwest ear," on the north side of the Tennessee River in the western tip of present-day Lauderdale County, originated from a traditional border between the Chickasaw and Cherokee nations, later followed by the western limits of two ephemeral Georgia land companies. The Northeastern Corner Alabama's Northeastern Corner The easternmost limit of Alabama's northern boundary also depended on Georgia's 1795 Tennessee Company, and a mapping error. The described limits of the company's property began at the mouth of Bear Creek on the Tennessee River, went "up the said creek, to the most southern source thereof," due east for 120 miles, and due north to the Tennessee River. This description was not accurate, for it assumed that the eastern boundary would intersect the Tennessee River. The southern source of Bear Creek was geographically located further east. Thus, when the eastern boundary was surveyed going north, it did not cross the Tennessee River. Instead, it intersected the company's northern boundary about three miles east of the Tennessee River, near Nickajack Cave. (This well-known regional landmark is located just south of present-day Nickajack Lake, at the north base of Sand Mountain on which the Alabama, Tennessee, and Georgia boundaries now meet.) Thus, Nickajack came to be identified as the north end of the eastern boundary of the Tennessee Company. Subsequently, Nickajack became the northwestern boundary point of the state of Georgia in 1802, the northeastern corner of the Mississippi Territory in 1804, the Alabama Territory in 1817, and the state of Alabama in 1819. The Eastern Boundary—Colonial Origins Alabama's Southeastern Border The southern part of Alabama's eastern boundary along the Chattahoochee River originated during the colonial era. Under the 1763 Treaty of Paris, which ended the French and Indian War, the British gained control of all French land in North America east of the Mississippi River. In the Southeast, south of the 31st parallel, the British created the colonies of West Florida and East Florida from former Spanish land. George Johnstone, the first governor of British West Florida, feared that Mobile and Natchez, the region's major settlements, might lie north of the 31st parallel. So in February 1764, Johnstone had the northern boundary of British West Florida moved about 82 miles north, to a line drawn due east from the mouth of the Yazoo River on the Mississippi River. Located at about 32° 28' North, this northern boundary line struck the Chattahoochee River near the mouth of Uchee Creek, in present-day Russell County, about three miles east of Fort Mitchell. From that point, West Florida's eastern boundary followed the Chattahoochee River south to the Gulf of Mexico. Johnstone's action thus essentially established the southern part of the eastern boundary of Alabama; later he would do the same for Alabama's western boundary. The Southern Boundary The 1783 Treaty of Paris ending the Revolutionary War with Britain set the 31st parallel as the southern boundary of the United States. In that treaty, Britain ceded all land east of the Mississippi River to the new nation and, in a separate treaty, ceded Florida back to Spain. But because boundaries were not clearly defined, Spain and the United States wrangled for years over the northern portion of West Florida. Their 1795 Treaty of San Lorenzo finally set the 31st parallel between the Mississippi and the Chattahoochee rivers as the border between the two nations. This agreement set the stage for creating the Mississippi Territory, from which Alabama would be formed. The Alabama/Georgia Border Alabama's Northeastern Border Alabama's eastern boundary on the Chattahoochee River and its southern boundary on the 31st parallel resulted from Congress's creation of the first part of the Mississippi Territory in April 1798. (The Mississippi Territory would later be expanded in 1804 and 1812.) In April 1802, Georgia ceded its western lands to the federal government in a major step toward resolving the legal quagmire resulting from Yazoo land deals. The Georgia Cession Act established the long diagonal line in Alabama's eventual northern border with Georgia, describing this line as running from "where a certain creek or river called Uchee ... empties into the said Chatahouchie river; thence in a direct line to Nickajack on the Tennessee river ...." In 1804, Congress assigned the northern portion of Georgia's former western land to the Mississippi Territory. In 1826, a joint Alabama-Georgia boundary commission moved the south end of the "Nickajack line" about 40 miles north, from the mouth of Uchee Creek to its current location at Lanett in present-day Chambers County on the Chattahoochee River. The Gulf Coast "Foot"Alabama's Southern Border Alabama's Southern Gulf "foot"—the area south of the 31st parallel and west of the Perdido River—originated from the 1803 Louisiana Purchase, but its history dates back to 1719. At that time, France controlled Mobile Bay and Spain controlled Pensacola Bay just to the east. To resolve disputes over shipping rights and trade, the French commander at New Orleans and the Spanish commander at Pensacola agreed to recognize the Perdido River, a small stream halfway between Mobile and Pensacola, as the border between their respective jurisdictions. Some 80 years later, in 1803, shrewd American diplomats negotiating the Louisiana Purchase in Paris invoked this informal 1719 agreement as the precedent for setting the Perdido River as the eastern limit of the Louisiana Purchase. Because all of Florida east of the Perdido River remained in Spanish hands until 1819, Florida's panhandle region did not become part of Alabama. After Louisiana achieved statehood in 1812, Congress added the last eastern remnant of the Louisiana Purchase, between the Pearl River in present-day Mississippi and the Perdido rivers, to the Mississippi Territory. This "Addition of 1812" ultimately became the Gulf "foot" portions of Mississippi and Alabama. The Western Boundary Mississippi - Alabama Border Alabama's long western border with Mississippi originated from Indian traditions, a British treaty, Georgia land companies, inaccurate maps, and territorial issues. The westernmost point of the wide angle in the middle of the Alabama-Mississippi border just to the north of present-day Evansboro in Choctaw County is the key factor in creating the line. The west point originated in a 1765 treaty between the British and the Choctaw, negotiated by British West Florida Governor George Johnstone. This treaty, which set the Choctaw boundary, separating Indian land on the north from British settlements to the south, led ultimately to the setting of the primary reference point for separating Alabama from Mississippi. South of the Choctaw boundary line, counties in the Mississippi Territory were formed in 1803. In 1809, the northwest corner of Washington County was fixed as the point where the east-west Choctaw boundary line crossed a prehistoric Indian trail leading north out of Mobile. When Congress created the new state of Mississippi and the Alabama Territory in 1817, the northwest corner of Washington County was used as the primary reference point for setting Mississippi's eastern boundary. From this point, a line went north to the mouth of Bear Creek on the Tennessee River. South from the point, the bottom leg initially ran due south to the Gulf of Mexico and very close to the east side of Pascagoula Bay. Settlers in this area, however, protested that this vertical boundary placed them in the Alabama Territory, separating them from families and businesses on the west side of Pascagoula Bay. In 1819, when Alabama was admitted to the Union, Congress reunited all the Pascagoula settlers in Mississippi by relocating the bottom leg "to run southeastward from the northwest point of Washington County, to strike the Gulf at a point ten miles east of the mouth of the Pascagoula River. "Today, the official Great Seal of Alabama recognizes that Alabama's boundaries originate in the histories of its neighboring states. The design of the official state seal—conceived by William Wyatt Bibb, first governor of the Alabama Territory—positively affirms this distinction. Unlike most other state seals, Alabama's features the state's outline boundary and specifically identifies its neighboring states; Tennessee, Georgia, Florida, and Mississippi.

Quadruplex telegraph
|
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search The Quadruplex telegraph is a type of electrical telegraph which allows a total of four separate signals to be transmitted and received on a single wire at the same time (two signals in each direction). Quadruplex telegraphy thus implements a form of multiplexing. The technology was invented by American inventor Thomas Edison, who sold the rights to Western Union in 1874 for the sum of $10,000. The problem of sending two signals simultaneously in opposite directions on the same wire had been solved previously by Julius Wilhelm Gintl and improved to commercial viability by J. B. Stearns; Edison added the ability to double the number in each direction. To send two signals in a single direction at the same time, the quadruplex telegraph used one signal to vary the absolute strength or voltage of the signal ( amplitude modulation) and the other signal to vary the phase (polarity) of the line ( phase modulation ), i.e., the direction of current flow imposed upon the wire. [1]Today this concept is known as polar modulation, considering amplitude and phase as radius and angle in polar coordinates.

Razzleberry Pie

Razzleberry Pie November 11, 2017 by Kadee I have memories of my mom and our next door neighbor, Marla, standing in our kitchen making dozens and dozens of pies. This always happened a few days before Thanksgiving. The kitchen was a mess, the house smelled amazing, and the tone was always joyful. As I grew older I remember them sending me on errands to get missing ingredients. One of my mom’s favorite pies was Marla’s famous razzleberry pie. Instant Clear Gel This recipe is inspired by Marla’s recipe – with just one tweak. Her recipe calls for pie tone – an ingredient that is difficult to find. I’ve substituted instant clear gel for the pie tone. Both of these ingredients act as thickeners and prevent your pie from being soupy. Turn off your ad blocker to view content What Is Razzleberry Pie? This pie filling is sodanggood! It is sweet and tart and all around delicious. Licking the spoon after you are done making the filling is the best part! What is razzleberry pie you ask? It’s triple berry pie – raspberry, blackberry, and blueberry. The Crust The next best part of this pie is the crust! I’ve used the Pie Curst recipe here on the blog which is AMAZING!!! I love using it for chicken pot pie. Pie crusts are very easy to make – and we have all of our best tips and tricks outlined in Des’s post. I’ve included the recipe and my shortcuts in the recipe card. Of course you can just top your pie with a flat piece of crust dough, cut a few slits in it, and you are good to go. But if you want to get fancy – try braiding your dough, or using pie dough cutters to create some fun shapes. Check out Des’s lattice crust, her braided edge, and her leaf accent. For my razzleberry pie I did a quick braid, and some leafs on the edge. I think it made for a festive fall pie. Unbaked pies are my favorite. They are so pristine and pretty. I’ve linked a few of my favorite pie making tools here: Turn off your ad blocker to view content The last step of pie making is baking! I bake at 375 for about 15 minutes, then I cover the edges and bake for another 30-35 minutes. Always keep an eye on your pie – burnt crust is the very worst! When you pie is golden brown, pull it out of the oven and let it cool completely. One tip is to chill your pie before baking. Don’t be afraid to use the freezer! If your pie goes into the oven chilled it will keep its form better than if it goes in at room temp. We like to serve our pie with whipped cream, or ice cream!So my question for you is – what is your favorite kind of pie? Let me know in the comments.

Symbolic Meaning Of Black Crow
|
Symbolic Meaning Of Black Crowby Paula (england)I am looking to find the symbolic meaning of a black crow. More specifically, what does it mean when a crow falls down your chimney? A black crow came down my chimney this morning. It was alive and I helped it to go free by letting him fly though my window. My friends tell me it's a sign of the devil and I am doomed. it scared me. Paula Dear Paula, Re: the symbolic meaning of a black crow; I can understand how something so strange and rare as this occurrence might leave you feeling frightened, particularly in the face of others telling you that it is a 'sign of doom.' In truth, You are the only one who can give meaning to this occurrence. It is you in this instance, who gets the final say on what the symbolic meaning of a black crow is. Instead of seeing it as a bad omen, why not focus upon the fact that something very rare and special occurred and more importantly, that you were able to help another living creature (one who was likely quite frantic and frightened) to freedom and safety. As far as that crow was concerned, you saved the day! It there a way you could frame this occurrence, and therefore, see the symbolic meaning of a black crow, in a light that would have you seeing it more as a beautiful 'gift' than a bad omen? I suspect so, as in your description, you describe the bird as being 'still alive'...and then, 'helping him to freedom' and 'letting him fly through your window.' In my estimation, you had yourself an incredible and rare experience. As far as my sense goes, that is an incredibly good sign and something that you will likely never forget as long as you live. Hold onto to those feelings of 'helping' and 'freeing' another living creature who crossed your path in a very unexpected way and the only impact this occurrence can have on your life, will be one of benefit and positivity. In my own experience, black crows have come to represent harbingers of peace and messages of hope. I see them as playful, even funny creatures who often knock themselves out to bring me signs of positivity. We are always attracting circumstances to us that support and guide us towards the light. The choice is yours, however you choose to see this, that will be its effect. Hope this helps, With Love, Faye

How Does AWS Config Work?
|
AWS Documentation » AWS Config » Developer Guide » What Is AWS Config? » How Does AWS Config Work? How Does AWS Config Work? When you turn on AWS Config, it first discovers the supported AWS resources that exist in your account and generates a configuration item for each resource. AWS Config also generates configuration items when the configuration of a resource changes, and it maintains historical records of the configuration items of your resources from the time you start the configuration recorder. By default, AWS Config creates configuration items for every supported resource in the region. If you don't want AWS Config to create configuration items for all supported resources, you can specify the resource types that you want it to track. AWS Config keeps track of all changes to your resources by invoking the Describe or the List API call for each resource in your account. The service uses those same API calls to capture configuration details for all related resources. For example, removing an egress rule from a VPC security group causes AWS Config to invoke a Describe API call on the security group. AWS Config then invokes a Describe API call on all of the instances associated with the security group. The updated configurations of the security group (the resource) and of each instance (the related resources) are recorded as configuration items and delivered in a configuration stream to an Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) bucket. AWS Config also tracks the configuration changes that were not initiated by the API. AWS Config examines the resource configurations periodically and generates configuration items for the configurations that have changed. If you are using AWS Config rules, AWS Config continuously evaluates your AWS resource configurations for desired settings. Depending on the rule, AWS Config will evaluate your resources either in response to configuration changes or periodically. Each rule is associated with an AWS Lambda function, which contains the evaluation logic for the rule. When AWS Config evaluates your resources, it invokes the rule's AWS Lambda function. The function returns the compliance status of the evaluated resources. If a resource violates the conditions of a rule, AWS Config flags the resource and the rule as noncompliant. When the compliance status of a resource changes, AWS Config sends a notification to your Amazon SNS topic. Deliver Configuration Items AWS Config can deliver configuration items through one of the following channels: Amazon S3 Bucket AWS Config tracks changes in the configuration of your AWS resources, and it regularly sends updated configuration details to an Amazon S3 bucket that you specify. For each resource type that AWS Config records, it sends a configuration history file every six hours. Each configuration history file contains details about the resources that changed in that six-hour period. Each file includes resources of one type, such as Amazon EC2 instances or Amazon EBS volumes. If no configuration changes occur, AWS Config does not send a file. AWS Config sends a configuration snapshot to your Amazon S3 bucket when you use the deliver-config-snapshot command with the AWS CLI, or when you use the Deliver Config Snapshot action with the AWS Config API. A configuration snapshot contains configuration details for all resources that AWS Config records in your AWS account. The configuration history file and configuration snapshot are in JSON format. Note AWS Config only delivers the configuration history files and configuration snapshots to the specified S3 bucket; AWS Config doesn't modify the lifecycle policies for objects in the S3 bucket. You can use lifecycle policies to specify whether you want to delete or archive objects to Amazon Glacier. For more information, see Managing Lifecycle Configuration in the Amazon Simple Storage Service Console User Guide. You can also see the Archiving Amazon S3 Data to Amazon Glacier blog post. Amazon SNS Topic An Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic is a communication channel that Amazon SNS uses to deliver messages (or notifications) to subscribing endpoints such as an email address or clients such as an Amazon Simple Queue Service queue. Other types of Amazon SNS notifications include push notification messages to apps on mobile phones, Short Message Service (SMS) notifications to SMS-enabled mobile phones and smart phones, and HTTP POST requests. For best results, use Amazon SQS as the notification endpoint for the SNS topic and then process the information in the notification programmatically. AWS Config uses the Amazon SNS topic that you specify to send you notifications. The type of notification that you are receiving is indicated by the value for the message Type key in the message body, as in the following example:"message Type": "Configuration History Delivery Completed"The notifications can be any of the following message types: Compliance Change Notification The compliance type of a resource that AWS Config evaluates has changed. The compliance type indicates whether the resource complies with a specific AWS Config rule, and it is represented by the Compliance Type key in the message. The message includes new Evaluation Result and old Evaluation Result objects for comparison. Config Rules Evaluation Started AWS Config started evaluating your rule against the specified resources. Configuration Snapshot Delivery Started AWS Config started delivering the configuration snapshot to your Amazon S3 bucket. The name of the Amazon S3 bucket is provided for the s3Bucket key in the message. Configuration Snapshot Delivery Completed AWS Config successfully delivered the configuration snapshot to your Amazon S3 bucket. Configuration Snapshot Delivery Failed AWS Config failed to deliver the configuration snapshot to your Amazon S3 bucket. Configuration History Delivery Completed AWS Config successfully delivered the configuration history to your Amazon S3 bucket. Configuration Item Change Notification A resource has been created, deleted, or changed in configuration. This message includes the details of the configuration item that AWS Config creates for this change, and it includes the type of change. These notifications are delivered within minutes of a change and are collectively known as the configuration stream . Oversized Configuration Item Change Notification This message type is delivered when a configuration item change notification exceeded the maximum size allowed by Amazon SNS. The message includes a summary of the configuration item. You can view the complete notification in the specified Amazon S3 bucket location. Oversized Configuration Item Change Delivery Failed AWS Config failed to deliver the oversized configuration item change notification to your Amazon S3 bucket. For example notifications, see Notifications that AWS Config sends . For more information about Amazon SNS, see the Amazon Simple Notification Service Developer Guide .

Guidelines for Establishing Essential/Non-essential Personnel in Case of a Campus Emergency
|
Guidelines for Establishing Essential/Non-essential Personnel in Case of a Campus Emergency The definition of which employees (among all faculty, staff, and administrators) are essential will vary depending on the circumstances. However, there is a core of essential personnel who should remain in most circumstances. This core includes exempt and non-exempt positions as follows: Essential Core Security Environmental health and safety custodial, snow removal, chemical hygiene officer, disaster clean-up, etc Food services (particularly if residence halls remain open)Communications Marketing and Communications Director2-Way Radio operators (usually in higher level emergencies)Phone operator Information Office – Office Coordinator Information Systems managers, including Web Director of Information Systems, IS Managers Residence Life Director of Residence Life Directors of Health Center, Counseling Center Facilities operations Director of Facilities Management Skilled crafts Technicians Budget and accounting (emergency purchasing and processing authority)Procurement (selected staff and administrators)Controller Human Resources (selected staff and administrators)Presidents Cabinet members Cabinet Assistants Auxiliary Services Essential Management – administrative directors and academic department chairs In addition, depending on the circumstances of the emergency, all essential management (administrative directors and academic department chairs) should be considered essential personnel until a decision is made about which services will be closed. Dismissal of classes does not necessarily mean that the campus shuts down completely and all students leave. Once a determination is made as to what, if any, services are to remain open to students, EM in those areas are responsible for providing appropriate staffing. Thus, services such as the library, financial aid, recreation facilities, and food services may be considered essential if the intention is to keep services open to students even though classes are cancelled. Even in areas that are deemed essential services, EM may allow staff to leave who have personal circumstances that necessitate departure from the workplace, e.g. child care issues. Levels of closure There are basically three levels of closure that may require releasing non-essential personnel. The examples below are an attempt to define increasing levels of urgency. In the end, the nature of the emergency will determine what services should continue and who is then essential to the continued operation of the campus. The distinction between the levels described below is blurred by the specifics of the circumstance at hand. The following is offered as a general guideline. Level I. Classes Dismissed: Non-instructional day, all other services open Examples: snow day, recognition of a local or national incident On duty: all staff and administrators On Call: those notified by supervisors Release: students and faculty Level II. Campus Closure: Inability to conduct business Examples: complete loss of power; response to a local or national incident; President issues directive to release non-essential personnel; or Governor issues state of emergency. On duty: essential management and essential core, residence hall occupants On call: those notified by supervisors Release: all faculty, all off-campus students and all other staff Level III. Extreme Emergency: Direct threat to health or safety of the campus Examples: actual incident affecting this campus, such as a plane crash on campus; air or water contaminated; infectious disease with high mortality rate or virulence Emergency Operations Center is activated. Provisions for emergency pay are activated. On duty: essential core On Call: essential management Release: all other staff and EM, all faculty and students, including evacuation of the residence halls Responsible Party Chair of Crisis Management Preparedness Team ( CMPT )Review As needed Distribution To all essential core and essential management Approved by Presidents Cabinet September 14, 2009Addendum: List of positions that comprise Essential Management (in addition to those directors that are considered essential core):• Associate/Assistant Deans • Director of Adult Degree Completion Program ( ADCP) • Director of Admissions • Director of Alumni Parent Engagement • Director of Athletics • Director of Campus Ministries • Director of Career Services • Director of Center for Justice & Peacebuilding ( CJP) • Director of Development • Director of Financial Aid • Director of Intensive English Program • Director of Libraries • Directors of Multicultural & International Student Services • Director of Student Programs • Public information officer • Registrar • Graduate Program Chairs • Undergraduate Department Chairs • Website editor and strategist

TRICARE for Life and Long Term Care for the Elderly
|
TRICARE for Life and Long Term Care for the Elderly Page Reviewed / Updated - Jun. 2017Vets Guide to Paying for Care Find Other Financial Help for Care Locate Affordable Home Care Affordable Assisted Living for Vets Help Applying for Veterans Benefits Table of Contents Definition Long Term Care Coverage Overview Qualifications Benefits Costs How to Apply Definition Provided by the Department of Defense, TRICARE is a regionally managed health insurance and care program for active or retired members and family of all seven uniformed services, which includes the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, Coast Guard, Public Health Service, and NOAA. A “retired” member of the military is someone who has 20 years of service. All military retirees are veterans, but not all veterans are military retirees. Therefore, not all veterans are eligible for TRICARE. TRICARE for Life (TFL) is an extension of TRICARE for seniors enrolled in Medicare. TFL serves as the secondary payer to minimize military retiree, seniors’ out-of-pocket expenses by covering Medicare's co-insurance and deductibles. Care is provided by a network of both military and civilian health professionals. TRICARE for Life was formerly called the Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Uniformed Services (CHAMPUS). Long Term Care Coverage Overview Like Medicare Supplemental Insurance, TRICARE for Life (TFL) picks up where Medicare leaves off. TFL will pay the co-insurance and deductibles but does not pay for the monthly Medicare Part B premium. Follows is an overview of TFL's benefits which are relevant to caring for an aging individual. Assisted Living / Senior Living TFL does not pay for long term care or custodial care as defined by assistance with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, feeding or supervision of the cognitively impaired. This type of care is not covered by TRICARE for Life regardless of the participant’s place of residence be that at home or in assisted living. Skilled Nursing Homes TFL will pay for skilled nursing care to an extent. Like Medicare, there must be a medical condition that was treated in a hospital for three consecutive days, and the senior must be admitted to a skilled nursing facility within 30 days following discharge from the hospital. Medicare has a 100-day limit on skilled nursing and TFL will be the primary payer after that 100-day limit, but will not cover the full amount. Make note, pre-authorization is required. Co-payment from the insurance holder in the amount up to $250 / day should be expected. Home Health Care For persons confined to their homes, who are unable to visit a medical facility without extensive assistance, TFL will cover home health visits for medical purposes but not to provide personal care. Adult Day Care TFL does not pay for either medical care or supervision in adult day care centers. Hospice TFL covers hospice care but it is offered as an alternative to further medical treatment. Did You Know? There are other benefit programs for aging Veterans that offer greater flexibility and benefits. Read about the VA Aid & Attendance Benefit and the VD-HBCS program. Qualifications Age Veterans or their family members must be at least 65 years of age to be eligible for TRICARE for Life. However, there is an exception for younger individuals if they are enrolled in Medicare already as a result of a disability. Disabilities / Health Requirements A senior veteran’s disability status, service-connected or otherwise does not affect their eligibility for TRICARE for Life. Family Status Family or marital status does not play a role in TRICARE for Life eligibility. One exception is surviving spouses that have re-married, which means they are no longer eligible. Divorce or death of the new spouse does not enable them to re-gain their eligibility as it does with the CHAMPVA for Life program. Financial Requirements Applicants and / or their surviving spouses with any level of financial resources and income are eligible for TRICARE for Life. Veteran Status One cannot have been dishonorably discharged. Other Requirements Military retirees and / or their spouses must be enrolled in Medicare Part A, which is Medicare’s hospital insurance, and Medicare Part B, which is Medicare’s medical insurance, to be eligible for TRICARE for Life. Benefits The types of care covered by TRICARE for Life are discussed in the Overview section above. In addition to care, TFL provides for durable medical equipment (DME) provided the items are 1) medically necessary and 2) prescribed by a physician. One can find greater details about the program’s DME policy here . Benefits payments are made directly to the medical providers. Veterans at no point receive cash or checks from TRICARE for Life. Costs There are no enrollment fees or monthly premiums for TFL. However, military retirees and/or their spouses must purchase Medicare Part B and pay those monthly premiums in order to be eligible for TFL. How to Apply Participants manage their TRICARE enrollment through the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System known as DEERS, which can be done on their website . To enroll in TRICARE for Life, a veteran must confirm that their Medicare Part B status is current in DEERS. Their record will then show they are “eligible for TRICARE for Life.”

Difference Between Pumpkin and Pumpkin Puree

Difference Between Pumpkin and Pumpkin Puree Posted on May 13, 2013 by admin Pumpkin vs Pumpkin Puree Pumpkin is a vegetable that is a delight when it comes to baking as it is used in many recipes and dishes whether breads, cakes or even pies. When you go to a grocery store, you find canned pumpkin, but alongside this product there is also canned pumpkin puree making you confused and interested to know whether there is any difference between pumpkin and pumpkin puree and whether one can be substituted for the other. Let us find out in this article. Pumpkin Pumpkin is sold as solid pack pumpkin in cans, in grocery stores and is used by people to bake many different recipes. It is also available as pumpkin pie filling, which has many other additives. Pumpkin is a powerhouse of nutrients and whether you use it fresh or canned doesn’t make a difference to the nutritional contents of the recipe you are making. Pumpkin Puree Pumpkin puree is the flesh of the fresh pumpkin that has been mashed, cooked, and then drained to make the puree. Pumpkin vs Pumpkin Puree Though both canned pumpkin and pumpkin puree contain the same flesh of the same vegetable, the difference lies in extra water that is there in the case of puree of pumpkins. You can easily use one in place of another while making a recipe that requires one of the two types of pumpkins, but not the pumpkin pie filling, which has many other additives. You might require straining pumpkin puree for a few hours if you want the same flavor in your recipe. Sometimes the difference between pumpkin puree and pumpkin is that of salt as puree is always without salt.

Title Length Color Rating Gulf War Syndrome - Gulf War Syndrome The Gulf War Syndrome was identified after the Gulf War in 1991. Thousands of troops from the US, British, and Canadian developed symptoms after the war. This Syndrome has been researched since the end of the Gulf War and still not all the answers have been found. Not only have thousands of troops suffered from this syndrome, but also their families have developed some symptoms related to this syndrome.

The fact is America got to where she is through failures, miscalculations, terrorism, conspiracy, and lying to its very own people through many facets of foreign policies and actions in other countries. The Vietnam War, specifically the Gulf-of-Tonkin Resolution and the Gulf-of-Tonkin Incident, are prime examples of how far American Presidential Administrations went to exclude themselves from their own Constitution to give themselves a blank check for war....

Kennedy took a much more laid back approach to Vietnam than Eisenhower did. He only wanted to support the South and not give them direct military aid by getting involved. Kennedy believed that the nations themselves should bear the burden of fighting the war and America would merely give them supplies and political support. However, the administration’s attempt to help the South largely failed because neither the South Vietnamese nor the Americans knew how to deal with guerrilla warfare....

When the Soviet Union and U. S. fought over Communism and Democracy it caused war in Korea. Most people known this war as the Forgotten War. This is because it not was not nearly important as in the national consciousness of the United States as the Second World War, the Vietnam War, or the 1991 Gulf War. One reason that the Korean War has been 'forgotten' is that, with the exception of the Inchon landing, it seems boring and featureless.

Controlling your high blood pressure
|
Controlling your high blood pressure Hypertension is another term used to describe high blood pressure. High blood pressure can lead to: Stroke Heart attack Heart failure Kidney disease Early death You are more likely to have high blood pressure as you get older. This is because your blood vessels become stiffer as you age. When that happens, your blood pressure goes up. When is Your Blood Pressure a Concern? If your blood pressure is high, you need to lower it and keep it under control. Your blood pressure reading has 2 numbers. One or both of these numbers can be too high. The top number is called the systolic blood pressure. For most people, this reading is too high if it is 140 or higher. The bottom number is called the diastolic blood pressure. For most people, this reading is too high if it is 90 or higher. The above blood pressure numbers are goals that most experts agree on for most people. For people age 60 and above, some doctors recommend a blood pressure goal of 150/90. Your health care provider will consider how these goals apply to you specifically. Medicines for Blood Pressure Many medicines can help you control your blood pressure. Your provider will: Prescribe the best medicine for you Monitor your medicines Make changes if needed Older adults tend to take more medicines and this puts them at greater risk for harmful side effects. One side effect of blood pressure medicine is an increased risk for falls. When treating older adults, blood pressure goals need to be balanced against medicine side effects. Diet, Exercise, and Other Lifestyle Changes In addition to taking medicine, you can do many things to help control your blood pressure. Some of these include: Limit the amount of sodium (salt) you eat. Aim for less than 1,500 mg per day. Limit how much alcohol you drink, no more than 1 drink a day for women and 2 a day for men. Eat a heart-healthy diet that includes the recommended amounts of potassium and fiber. Drink plenty of water. Stay at a healthy body weight. Find a weight-loss program, if you need it. Exercise regularly. At least 30 minutes a day of moderate aerobic exercise. Reduce stress. Try to avoid things that cause you stress, and try meditation or yoga to de-stress. If you smoke, quit. Find a program that will help you stop. Your provider can help you find programs for losing weight, stopping smoking, and exercising. You can also get a referral to a dietitian from your provider. The dietitian can help you plan a diet that is healthy for you. Checking Your Blood Pressure Your blood pressure can be measured at many places, including: Home Your provider’s office Your local fire station Some pharmacies Your provider may ask you to keep track of your blood pressure at home. Make sure you get a good quality, well-fitting home device. It is best to have one with a cuff for your arm and a digital readout. Practice with your provider to make sure you are taking your blood pressure correctly. It is normal for your blood pressure to be different at different times of the day. It is most often higher when you are at work. It drops slightly when you are at home. It is most often lowest when you are sleeping. It is normal for your blood pressure to increase suddenly when you wake up. For people with very high blood pressure, this is when they are most at risk for heart attack and stroke. Follow-up Your provider will give you a physical exam and check your blood pressure often. With your provider, establish a goal for your blood pressure. If you monitor your blood pressure at home, keep a written record. Bring the results to your clinic visit. When to Call the Doctor Call your provider if your blood pressure goes well above your normal range. Also call if you have any of the following symptoms: Severe headache Irregular heartbeat or pulse Chest pain Sweating Nausea or vomiting Shortness of breath Dizziness or lightheadedness Pain or tingling in the neck, jaw, shoulder, or arms Numbness or weakness in your body Fainting Trouble seeing Confusion Difficulty speaking Other side effects that you think might be from your medicine or your blood pressure Alternative Names Controlling hypertension References American Diabetes Association.

Why General Motors invested in Lyft
|
Getty Images Lyft’s $1 billion round values the company at $5.5 billion, the company said. General Motors may be trying to learn more about a future disrupter with its investment in ride-hailing company Lyft. Lyft announced Monday that it had closed a $1 billion funding round, valuing the startup at $5.5 billion, with $500 million coming from General Motors. In addition to the funding and a seat on Lyft’s board, General Motors GM, +0.40% will work with the San Francisco company to establish short-term car rental hubs so drivers can work for Lyft without owning their own car. Matthew Stover, an automotive industry analyst at Susquehanna Financial Group, said he sees the investment as a long-term learning play by GM to understand how ride-hailing companies operate, who uses them and get a better sense of the threat to the automotive industry.“No one knows what ride-sharing is going to do to the future of transportation,” Stover said. From General Motors’ perspective, part of that future involves self-driving cars. It will team up with Lyft to create an “autonomous on-demand network,” which will also aid Lyft as it goes up against competitor Uber, which is working on its own autonomous vehicles.“We see the future of personal mobility as connected, seamless and autonomous,” said Dan Ammann, president of General Motors, in a news release. But Lyft’s goal, which it states in the news release as “redefining traditional car ownership,” and the goals of other ride-hailing companies, appear to be counter to General Motors’ business model. Still, Stover said he believes it’s too soon to say that Lyft or other ride-hailing services are directly in competition with traditional car manufacturers as the business models of both could change.“I think from GM’s standpoint it’s better doing this then building a Lyft competitor,” said Stover, adding that many car manufacturers are seeking to partner with Silicon Valley companies. For example, Alphabet’s GOOG, +0.84% GOOGL, +1.00% Google and Ford F, +0.63% are reportedly creating an independent company to build self-driving cars, according to The Verge and other outlets. Additionally, as pure investment strategy, General Motors is buying a stake in a highly valued company and also stands to make money off the rental program, Stover said. General Motors shares were down 2.4% after the announcement Monday morning among a larger general market selloff. General Motors did not respond to a request for further comment.

User Reviewsmesmerizing12 January 2018 | by Myriam Nys – See all my reviews Wonderfully atmospheric and stylish short, both an homage to, and a spoof of, Cold War spy dramas à la Le Carré. The beginning of the movie reminds one of a really faithful, really meticulous Le Carré adaptation - think BBC at its best - and then gradually ever more uncanny elements creep in. The finale is deeply disquieting, proving once again that horrors hinted at are more frightening than horrors explained. Nice, natural performances and very high production values.1 of 1 people found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you?

Ganglion Cyst

Ganglion Cyst In this Article Ganglion Cyst Overview Ganglion Cyst Causes Ganglion Cyst Symptoms When to Seek Medical Care Exams and Tests Ganglion Cyst Treatment: Self-Care at Home Medical Treatment Surgery Next Steps Follow-up Prevention Outlook Multimedia Ganglion Cyst Overview A ganglion cyst is a tumor or swelling on top of a joint or the covering of a tendon (tissue that connects muscle to bone). It looks like a sac of liquid (cyst). Inside the cyst is a thick, sticky, clear, colorless, jellylike material. Depending on the size, cysts may feel firm or spongy. One large cyst or many smaller ones may develop. Multiple small cysts can give the appearance of more than one cyst, but a common stalk within the deeper tissue usually connects them. This type of cyst is not harmful and accounts for about half of all soft tissue tumors of the hand. Ganglion cysts, also known as Bible cysts, are more common in women, and 70% occur in people between the ages of 20-40. Rarely, ganglion cysts can occur in children younger than 10 years. Ganglion cysts most commonly occur on the back of the hand at the wrist joint but they can also develop on the palm side of the wrist. When found on the back of the wrist, they become more prominent when the wrist is flexed forward. Other sites, although less common, include these: The base of the fingers on the palm, where they appear as small pea-sized bumps The fingertip, just below the cuticle, where they are called mucous cysts The outside of the knee and ankle The top of the foot Continue Reading Belowyou might like Ganglion Cyst Causes The cause of ganglion cysts is not known. One theory suggests that trauma causes the tissue of the joint to break down, forming small cysts that then join into a larger, more obvious mass. The most likely theory involves a flaw in the joint capsule or tendon sheath that allows the joint tissue to bulge out. Ganglion Cyst Symptoms The ganglion cyst usually appears as a bump (mass) that changes size. It is usually soft, anywhere from 1-3 cm in diameter, and doesn't move. The swelling may appear over time or appear suddenly, may get smaller in size, and may even go away, only to come back at another time. Most ganglion cysts cause some degree of pain, usually following acute or repetitive trauma, but up to 35% are without symptoms except for appearance. If pain is present, it is usually chronic and made worse by joint motion. When the cyst is connected to a tendon, you may feel a sense of weakness in the affected finger.1 2 3 View All
