Which characters may be used as the second character of an identifier, but not as the first character of an identifier? The digits 0 through 9 may not be used as the first character of an identifier but they may be used after the first character of an identifier. Is the ternary operator written x : y ? z or x ? y : z ? It is written x ? y : z. How is rounding performed under integer division? The fractional part of the result is truncated. This is known as rounding toward zero. If a class is declared without any access modifiers, where may the class be accessed? A class that is declared without any access modifiers is said to have package access. This means that the class can only be accessed by other classes and interfaces that are defined within the same package. Does a class inherit the constructors of its superclass? A class does not inherit constructors from any of its superclasses.

In the digital age, it is essential we equip our students with the skills to find, use, generate and disseminate information and knowledge in personal, professional and social contexts. Digital literacy opens up opportunities to develop new relationships, resources and applications. Digital literacy is a key component of professionalism and will empower our graduates to succeed in the careers and in their communities. Critically harness digital literacy for professional practice and research and demonstrate digital citizenship in online learning, professional and social communities |Understand professional, social and cultural implications of the global use of technology||Use, create, communicate and share multimodal information in digital environments||Ethically, legally, safely and critically use technology to select, create and share information and participate in online learning, professional and social communities| Assessment of this GLO can include contextualised assessments that allow students the opportunity to select and demonstrate the appropriate and effective use of technologies. Assessments should develop practical knowledge, skills, and critical evaluation that develop the foundation for their professional practice.

While never rigorously defined and changing in character over time, combat is the confrontation of military forces where one intends to dominate the other, usually with lethal force. Combat is a physical activity, distinct from the legal status of war. Early combat was exclusively by lethal weapons, at close range and often powered by human muscle. With the introduction of technology, combat ranges increased, eventually to intercontinental distances. The "kinetic" forces began to be complemented by nonkinetic information operations including electronic warfare and psychological operations. The earliest combat was among tribal societies, but it evolved to nation-states. Today, however, non-national actors may be opponents, especially in land warfare. Sea, air, and space combat remain principally the domain of nations.

A report recently published by Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH) estimates that 150 beavers are now living wild on the River Tay in Scotland. The report, mainly based on surveys carried out in the summer of 2012, indicates there are 38 or 39 groups of beavers (0.14-0.15 groups or 0.55 to 0.56 individuals per kilometer of occupied waterway). These animals are thought to be descendants from captive collections of beavers in the counties of Perthshire and Angus. Apparently, at the time. only three groups of beavers had built dams, causing some localised problems resulting in some dams being removed. However, as reported by the BBC, local fishermen had no issues with the presence of beavers. The report, which can be found on the SNH website, recommends carrying out mitigation studies that would enable the coexistence of people and beavers. Monitoring over the next 2 to 3 years will be carried out by the Tayside Beaver Study Group. This story has also been reported in Wildlife Extra News and the Herald in Scotland – also see YouTube and the BBC Autumnwatch webpage.

JOURNAL TOPIC: [today's tunes: "Macbeth-Sinfonia" by Verdi; "Tiny Daggers" by INXS] Macbeth sees a vision of a dagger and is moved to speak and act accordingly. Hamlet imagined the "bare bodkin" in his most famous soliloquy-- and was also moved to speak and act. Compare these two moments: how does Shakespeare's characterization and writing technique create dramatic tension and move the plot? Why do these characters see visions in their mind, then use words to express what they think & feel about what they see, and then become motivated to act? What effects does Shakespeare's technique create? And why the images of weaponry? In other words: What...is...the...[groan]...POINT? 2. Macbeth: Act II 1. Use the weekend to catch up, review, and deepen your understanding of Macbeth and your masterpiece. Come back Monday refreshed and prepared for next steps on both fronts. (Note: this grading period ends Friday, April 11.)

For all of us in the United States, January 1st is just New Year’s day. The day the calendar ticks another year. But for people who live outside the US in Canada, Europe and elsewhere, January 1st means something else entirely. It means today is the day that new works enter the Public Domain. This is the day that more of our culture becomes free to distribute, free to build upon , and free to do whatever we want with. Yet, because of terrible copyright laws in the US, we miss out on all this. Prior to 1978, copyrights lasted only 28 years, with the option to renew them a single time for an additional 28 years. Then in 1978, Congress, under the guidance of companies such as Disney, extended copyrights to last the life of the author plus 50 years. That is what the rest of the world has today. But in 1998, Congress once again, at the bidding of companies like Disney, extend copyrights to last life plus 70 years for human authors and 95 years for corporate owned copyrights. This pushed the US out of line with much of the world and works in the US won’t start entering the Public Domain until 2019. Continue reading

This past week, the 9th and 10th grade Scholars held their first ever Theme Expo. This was an opportunity to share what they were learning about in theme workshop with each other. The students were able to choose from three different themes: Astronomy, International Women’s Rights, and Poetry, each led by a volunteer Expert Workshop Facilitator. The International Women’s Rights group shared the different NGOs that they created to help solve the issues they studied. One example was a NGO that wanted to shine a light on and help decrease the rate of HIV/AIDS in women in Botswana. Each student in the Poetry group bravely stood up in front of their peers and shared a poem that they wrote. Lastly, the Astronomy group presented on interesting facts and subjects that they learned about, such as black holes and the Doppler Effect, and created their own timeline of the universe. This was a great experience that not only helped our students practice their presentation skills but also gave them a chance to learn from their peers. We look forward to the next Expo, which is taking place in early March with our Middle School Scholars. (Sara Dia is a Scholars Program Specialist at FLOC).

For generations, workers either stayed on the job until they died, or because they were too ill or old to work any longer, retired into a life of poverty. Together, workers said enough. Canadians that had worked their lives for an employer should not be used up and thrown away when they got too old to be of use to their employer. Workers who are too old to work and too young to die should live their remaining years in dignity. Together, workers negotiated pension plans in their workplaces. They arranged for part of their wages to be set aside, so that it would be there for them when they retired. They also got employers to contribute, in recognition of the service to (and profits made for) employers during their careers. Workers didn’t just demand dignity in retirement for themselves. They demanded public pensions for all Canadians, whether in paid work or not. Workers fought for and won Old Age Security in 1952, the Canada Pension Plan in 1965, and the Guaranteed Income Supplement in 1966. Together, this country’s public pensions are responsible for Canada having one of the lowest old-age poverty rates in the industrialized world.

Die ältesten georgischen Inschriften von Heinz Fähnrich The book gives an overview of the most important inscriptions in Early Old Georgian. It shows the development of Georgian alphabetic writing (from the oldest Mrgvlovani via Kutkhovani to modern Mkhedruli) and deals with the earliest Mrgvlovani inscriptions. These inscriptions are reproduced as copy trace and rendered in transcription, with the solution of abbreviations and accompanied by a German translation. The author classifies the inscriptions, both in as outside of Georgia, according to graphical, linguistic and textual features, and groups these per period. The result is in accord with historiographical traditions, both those of the Georgians and ancient writers, and Georgian handwriting.

1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data Two protons in an atomic nucleus are typically separated by a distance of 2x10-15 m. The electric repulsion force between the protons is huge, but the attractive nuclear force is even stronger and keeps the nucleus from bursting apart. What is the magnitude of the electric force between two protons separated by 2.00x10-15. 2. Relevant equations F = (kq1q2) / r2 3. The attempt at a solution I have no experience in electrostatics...I'm not sure how to solve this without knowing the charges of the two protons. Is there a certain way to? Thank you to all who read this and/or reply :).

Therapeutic Play and Play Therapy may be offered as a choice to families if the School Learning Team believes a child’s emotional state or behavior is having a severe impact on their ability to engage in learning. Play can often be an effective medium for a child to express feelings, explore relationships, describe experiences, or recover from trauma. Children often do not have the language development to communicate their awareness of what is happening in their world. In therapeutic play and play therapy, toys are viewed as the child’s words and play as the child’s language. The therapeutic sessions allow children the opportunity to explore emotionally significant experiences comfortably and safely through the symbolic representation the toys provide. Therapeutic play and play therapy are based on developmental principles and provide developmentally appropriate means of expression and communication for children. They provide an opportunity for children to explore their anxieties and fears and distance themselves from traumatic events and experiences. Click here for more information on Therapeutic Play

Ancient East Asian artifact unearthed in Alaska Published on November 15th, 2011 | by Admin0 “I was totally astonished,” said Hoffecker. “The object appears to be older than the house we were excavating by at least a few hundred years.” Hoffecker and his CU-Boulder colleague Owen Mason said the bronze object resembles a belt buckle and may have been used as part of a harness or horse ornament prior to its arrival in Alaska. While they speculated the Inupiat Eskimos could have used the artifact as a clasp for human clothing or perhaps as part of a shaman’s regalia, its function on both continents still remains a puzzle, they said.

Earth Sciences and Ecology Question #5113 trish brooks, a 56 year old female from Ottawa asks on November 6, 2010, We used to have a wooden stick on the outside of our house. It measured air pressure or humidity or something. It seemed that when the air pressure increased the wooden stick would point up, and when it dropped the stick pointed down. Do you know what kind of wood that is (or even where you find something like that)? viewed 8839 times answered on November 7, 2010 A quick google search yielded a lot of information on "Weather Sticks". According to many websites they really do work. They are made of young balsam fir twigs or other tree twigs. One of the best explanations is at the Weather Stick Science page. Here's a place in Canada to get these: http://www.thegreatcanadiangiftcompany.com/Canadian-WeatherStick_p_978.html Add to or comment on this answer using the form below.

What is the meaning behind pulling of the beard, the fig and the calling of a dog? In Medieval times a beard was a symbol of manhood, power and dignity. One way of telling that a man was still a boy was to say that he had no beard. Even nowadays in Spain you can find saying related to manhood a beards. In the poem of the Cid, (the Spanish version) the beard is not just pulled, but pulled or cut off. That is a very important offence; as by removing a man’s beard they could prove that he had been defeated in battle and had not been able to fight back. It also meant that the opponent could have killed him (he already had the sword on the neck) but had chosen to be merciful (so you owed him your life) or that the defeated had been too coward to accept honorable death and had begged for a dishonorable life.

Payments using credit have been around for more than 100 years, but the use of electricity to process credit payments is slightly newer. Western Union developed the technology to make electronic money transfers as early as 1860, but it was not until the invention of the charge card in the 1940s and 1950s that people started carrying around cards that allowed them to defer payment for goods and services. As consumers learned about the convenience and practicality of charge and credit cards, their popularity increased. The first such cards were offered on a vendor-specific basis, meaning they were only valid at a single retail location. Then, in 1966, Bank of America introduced the first plastic, all-purpose credit card. In the following years, credit card issuers introduced processing systems that cut the costs of accepting credit cards for banks and merchants. Today, the omnipresence of credit cards makes online commerce possible, and Americans tend to favor electronic payment methods over other options. About the Author Retriever Powered by NTC joined the emerging electronic payment industry in the 1960s. Today, it remains a leading force in the field of electronic processing equipment, services, and support for small- and medium-sized businesses.

FORCES AND MACHINES 1. What is a force? 2. Forces can be classified in or forces. But can also be classified in or forces. 3. Forces have many different effects on objects. Write one example of each effect: Example: Change of direction: If one ball is coming to me and I hit the ball with my racket the ball changes the direction. 4. If Earth is a sphere why don't people in the bottom part fall down to the Universe? Explain what it is this force and how it works. 5. What is the effect of the friction? What surfaces can produce friction? Write 3 examples of friction produced by different surfaces. 6. Is it possible that gravity and friction act at the same time? Write one example if it is possible.

marking is, in common usage, an intermixing of colors, not in any distinct patches or patterns such as piebald , but a blending of the colors together. In the most literal sense with the word's roots, the word is related to a greyish result, but can be used to indicate any blending of colors in this manner. Grizzle can be either colors naturally blended, such as in hair, or it can be a collection of tiny dots and blotches on top of a base color, as is the case with a grizzled betta A roan horse--black and white hairs intermixed--is technically grizzled, as is a man's beard when it starts growing grey hairs in with the normal colors. From a distance a grizzled hue may appear a solid color, but up close the distinct colors can be seen.

When water is not draining properly from your washing machine, it might be the result of a malfunctioning pump. The pump drains water from the washing machine tub and into the house drainage line. Washing machines either have an electric pump or a direct drive pump. Direct drive pumps rely on the motor directly and don't have any wires. Electric pumps connect to the motor with a belt and have two wire connections to check with an ohmmeter to ensure the pump electrical current is operating correctly. Using an ohmmeter to test a washing machine pump only lets you know whether the electrical system of the pump is working. Check the washing machine power cord to ensure it is unplugged from the electrical outlet. Turn on the ohmmeter and touch the probes together. Adjust the scale dial to zero. Find the two wires connecting to the side of the pump. Pull the wires away from the pump terminals. Always pull from the ends of the wires and not the middle. Touch a probe to each of the terminals on the pump. Look at the ohmmeter scale. The reading should be between 5 ohms to 10 ohms depending upon your washer model. A reading of zero or infinity, means the pump requires replacement.

Definition of flying wing - Engineers call it a flying wing, or “blended wing body”. Gone is the familiar cylindrical fuselage … . Instead, the craft has a pair of thick, swept-back wings with the engines embedded inside. The tail is also gone, replaced by gyroscopes and raised “winglets” that help keep the plane stable. - —Bennett Daviss, New Scientist, 24 Feb. 2007 - As expected, the B-2 was a flying wing, a type that Northrop's founder, Jack Northrop, pioneered in the 1940's. Engineers had long known that flying wings, which lack tail fins, rudders and elevators, reflect only small radar echoes from head-on. - —Malcolm W. Browne, New York Times, 14 May 1991 - Some aeronautical engineers also argue that a flying wing is a lifting body—not a wing without a fuselage but a fuselage shaped entirely like a wing. - —Stephan Wilkinson, Air & Space Smithsonian, April/May 1991

NEW ORLEANS (CN) – Between 12,000 and 19,000 barrels of oil are spilling daily into the Gulf of Mexico, making this the worst spill in U.S. history, according to new estimates from a federal technical group. The amount of oil released far surpasses the 1989 Exxon Valdez catastrophe responsible for spilling 11 million gallons of oil off the coast of Alaska. Marcia McNutt, director of the U.S. Geological Survey, says best estimates from scientists indicate that between 18 million and 28 million gallons of oil have gushed into the Gulf of Mexico thus far — or between 432,000 and 684,000 barrels — since the April 20 explosion of the Deepwater Horizon oil rig. The new figure comes from a group of government, industry and academic scientists and more than doubles what the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and BP estimated to be 5,000 barrel a day. Independent scientists previously calculated that the spill could be closer to 70,000 barrels a day.

Chalkboard paint can be used in a variety of crafts and is quick and easy to make. To make homemade chalkboard paint, mix together two parts Plaster of Paris, one part water and three parts acrylic paint. You will need Plaster of Paris, acrylic paint, water, a measuring cup, a bowl and a spoon.Continue Reading Measure 2 tablespoons of Plaster of Paris, one tablespoon of water and three tablespoons of acrylic paint. The total amount of ingredients needed will depend on your project. In a bowl, mix together the measured amounts of Plaster of Paris and water until smooth. Add the measured amount of acrylic paint into the mixture. Stir together until well combined. Check your chalkboard paint for consistency before completely painting your project. If the consistency is too thick, add a few drops of water to thin the paint until the desired texture is achieved. Use your chalkboard paint in a relatively quick time frame after making it, as it hardens fast. If you are not able to use it all immediately, tightly seal the bowl. Allow to fully dry before writing on the chalkboard paint. Preferably, let sit overnight.

This Java programming tutorial you how you can work with the multidimensional array. Array is the collection of same data type. Consider that if have created a variable of type int then, the array of int can only store the int values. It can't store other than int data type. In this program we are going to make one program on multidimensional array. To make a program over the two dimensional array first of all declare one class named as ArrayExample. Make one static method outputArray() which will take one int type of multidimensional array as its input. As it is the multidimensional array so, get the length of each array by using the length variable which will helps us to find the length of each array. Now use the for loop to print all the values stored in the array. At last use the main() method inside which we are going to declare the values of the multidimensional array which we are going to use. Call the outputArray() method inside the main method. The output will be displayed to the user by println() method. Here is the code of this Example: Posted on: June 25, 2008 If you enjoyed this post then why not add us on Google+?

You're absolutely right. Artistotle refused toa ccept that flies had any more than four legs. Apparently it was believed for more than a thousand years and such was his standing that nobody else bothered to count.Let's stipulate that flies have more than four legs. Did Aristotle think so? Plenty of Googlists repeat the story, which might be enough to excite a skeptic. And sure enough, here comes John S. Wilkins, otherwise unknown to me, who represents himself as a Historian and Philosopher of Science and who appear to be a cautious reader of ancient texts. Wilkins thinks the charge a canard originated, perhaps, in the past 50 years. His full analysis is here. He focusus particular attention on a mayfly who has four legs for walking and another two "specialised simply to hold onto the female during mating in flight." Now that part I dearly hope is true. Tuesday, April 05, 2011 Aristotle and the Four-Legged Fly Aristotle thought that flies have four legs.

The knee is one of the largest joint in our body. Pain in the knee can be related to several underlying conditions such as arthritis, or can be a result of injury or overuse. As we age, our joints’ surfaces roughen; natural lubrication and cartilage diminish, resulting in knee pain due to the friction of bones grating together. Although pain from knee osteoarthritis(OA) has long been considered a chronic condition, the reason for the fluctuation in knee pain is not well understood. Why do I have pain in the knee? Some of the more recent studies has identified 3 areas of concern that can cause knee pain: - Bone marrow lesion (Wear and Tear)

Here are two persons who laid very first formative bricks for consumer research field. Daniel Starch developed the idea of marketing research in the late 1920s with the theory that effective advertising must be seen, read, believed, remembered, and then acted upon. He would interview people in the streets, asking them if they read certain publications. If they did, his researchers would show them the magazines and ask if they recognized or remembered any of the ads found in them. He then compared the number of people he interviewed with the circulation of the magazine to figure out how effective those ads were in reaching their readers. George Gallup became the first ever director of an advertising agency in 1932. Gallup developed a lot of the techniques still used today to find out which ads work and why – questionnaires, focus groups, listeners’ panels – as well as devising audience measurement techniques. ~To be continued with retail measurement field~

This survey was conducted by Family Tree DNA and shows that Mcgowan/en of Ireland went to England, (County Durham and Lancashire) and were early settlers in the US state of Virginia, Tennessee and Carolina. Male Haplogroup R1a1a2. Exchange of genealogy/ pedigree sought. The first-name Miles or Myles may be a clue, In Ireland people were "persuaded" to turn their name in to English, and became "Smith".The name dated from at least 1394, when Faelin or Phelin Mac An Ghabhan was the principal writer of the "Book of UI Maine" (Hy Manny). Please note that there is no connection with the similar surnames McGovern, McGoveran .Maguaran,or McGowran, which meant son of "Summer". It is doubtful whether any O'Gowans are connected, but DNA might prove otherwise.

May 10, 2016: Daily Bible Reading Commentary for 2 Samuel 15-19 Click here for the reading Commentary: Last week, we read a psalm from David about being betrayed by his son Absalom, and a trusted advisor. Today’s reading covers those events. David may have been betrayed, but he was not alone. David demonstrates his faith in the Lord, refusing to use the Ark fro political advantage, instead sending it back to Jerusalem. David knew what others before him did not; the Ark is not the source of God’s power. Having it will not ensure victory. Despite his betrayal, David mourns the death of Absalom. Absalom’s death does not end David’s troubles, as tensions form between the tribes of Judah and the northern tribes. Focus Verses: 18:32-19:4 Have you ever gloated over an enemies’ misfortune? David did not gloat, rather he mourned. Why did David mourn? How should we respond to our enemies misfortune? When our enemies seek to bring us down, how should we respond?

What with its composition and what with its procedure, which theBritish Government controlled, the conference side-tracked its energies into secondaryissues and particularly the communal problem. Gandhi was prepared to give a "blankcheque" to Muslims and other minorities to remove their legitimate fears, providedthey were willing to press the national demand for freedom. Most of the Hindu delegateswere not ready for this gesture, and the Muslim nationalists were not represented at theconference. Gandhi in Lancashire, September 1931Gandhi pleaded for an honourable and equal partnership betweenBritain and India, held not by force but "by the silken cord of love" He foundthe odds against him. There was a financial crisis and a change of government in Britain;in the new Ministry, the Conservatives were heavily represented. The British public waspreoccupied with domestic issues; for it, the financial crisis was a more urgent issuethan the niceties of an Indian Constitution. Inevitably, even if imperceptibly, there wasa change in emphasis. Sir Samuel Hoare, the new Secretary of State, told Gandhi that hesincerely believed that Indians were unfit for complete self-government.

|MadSci Network: Physics| National Geographic has an item for sale: an hourglass inside a tube of water. In trying to guess why the hourglass rises in the tube, as the sand in the glass falls, we came upon another question: which has greater buoyancy - a container filled with air, at normal air pressure, or that same container with a vacuum?

Some of these benefits include: • Children learn about families from the time they spend in their own families. • Children learn to share, how to stand up for their own rights, and how to love another person. • We help children develop positive self-esteem by communicating the value we feel for the child. Words of encouragement and love help provide children with the courage to try new things without worrying excessively about not being able to do them. • Children learn about trust at home from their parents. They learn trust from being trusted. Spending time with our children can be fun and educational for us and for them. Much of the child's basic learning takes place in the many informal situations that occur daily in the life of the family. These informal occasions for learning include all the times the family members are together doing ordinary things, such as getting dressed, talking over the day’s happenings, dealing with problems, interacting with people outside the family, taking baths, eating, and so forth. The activity does need not be costly, but rather one that satisfies both the parent and the child. Some more ideas to spend family time without spending money:

The Art of Scent guides visitors through the historical arc made by 12 fine fragrances representing major aesthetic schools of olfactory art over the past 130 years. In the late 1800s, perfume-making underwent a revolution. Scents had always been made from natural substances—oils and essences as well as fixatives made from animal products such as ambergris (a waxy material from the intestine of a sperm whale) and castoreum (a secretion from the anal gland of beavers). But as commercial chemists got better at synthesizing molecules for all sorts of purposes, perfume-makers couldn’t help but notice that some of those molecules tickled the nostrils.

1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data Let's say I'm asked to find the taylor expansion for cot x, at the given point a = π/2. 2. Relevant equations 3. The attempt at a solution My first thought would be to take the mc laurin series expansion for cotx, which is: cot x = 1/x + x/3 - x3/45 ... and substitute x for z-π/2. According to my solution manual, that isn't correct. By messing around with trig identities, I solved the problem in the following way: cot x = cot (π/2 + x - π/2) = -tan(x - π/2) I took the mc laurin series expansion for tanx, multiplied it by -1, replaced x by z-π/2 and found the right answer. Why wasn't I allowed to substitute x = z - π/2 in cot x, yet doing the same thing in -tanx gave me the right answer?

We go through some basic concepts of respiratory mechanics, starting from the goals of ventilation therapy. Actually, I have never found this clearly stated in any of the books, so here is what I think the respirator is for in our NICU-patients (who either have increased ICP, in which case they are deeply sedated, or not, in which case they should be as awake as possible as long as they tolerate the tube [this means analgesia or dexmedetomidine or clonidine]): - Monitor the patient’s respiratory efforts – this is only diagnostic! - Compensate for the increased effort of breathing through a tube (which is necessary b/c the patient has no gag or swallowing reflex) - Get in the oxygen (oxygenation) - Get out the CO2 (ventilation) - Keep the lung open (avoid dystelectasis) – this is best achieved by letting the patient breathe on his own. My main goal in this task is not to make all of my colleagues respiratory experts but to have them understand the settings in a ventilator of a patient they have to gauge clinically.

Researchers Reveal the Ocean Sunfish's Secret Japanese researchers have revealed why the mola mola likes to 'sunbathe' A team of scientists led by Itsumi Nakamura of the University of Tokyo, Japan has found the first evidence of the large bony fish feeding on siphonophores, a type of hydozoan found in waters as deep as 200m. It was previously believed that they solely feed on jellyfish in shallower waters. The research team caught several mola mola's and equipped them with a thermometre, a light and a camera to collect data. The research suggests that the ocean sunfish comes to the surface to warm up its body after a deep foraging hunt, in the same way as some species of whales do. Larger specimen can therefore go on longer hunt as they retain their body heat for longer.

Homefront Emergency recommended Cold and FLU ptotection for Adults and Children. Is thought to spread mainly person-to-person through coughing or sneezing of infected people. The CDC recommends take everyday actions to stay healthy. Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue or when you cough or sneeze. Throw the tissue in the trash after you use it. Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after you cough or sneeze. Alcohol-based hands cleaners are also effective. CDC states "the use of a facemask or respirator is likely to be of most benefit if used as early as possible when exposed to an ill person and when the facemask or respirator is used consistently."

For the avoidance of doubt this post is not about an American rock band. Observant readers will of course have known this from the spelling of, "chilli." Rather it is about the fruiting vegetable. |Chilli Pepper Plant 28th July 2012| |Chilli Pepper 28th July 2012| Even within the one variety there can be a very big difference between the ,"hotness" of one chilli over another. It is the chemical compound capasaicin in the fruit which produces the heat sensation. Traditionally the Scoville Heat Scale has been used to measure the hotness of chillies. This test was developed in 1912 by a Wilbur Scoville.

Clubs, glossaries, museums, shops and much more...... ...all of your model making needs from one site. There are many different types of boat engine. Variations on the glow engine are often produced with water jackets that can be plumbed in to provide cooling. There are some other interesting types that can be fun including the putt-putt engine that was first used in tin boats. This shows a Frog 0.249cu inch diesel engine that is water cooled. The needle is shown separately. Another interesting form of propulsion is the waterjet. If you are interested in the fullsize power unit visit Hamilton Jet, Christchurch New Zealand, the pioneers of waterjet propulsion. Founded by Sir William Hamilton, O.B.E (1899 to 1978) in 1939. In 1953 the waterjet became reality, based on the work of Archimedes William Hamilton improved this and turned it into a propulsion system for boats.

Periodontal (gum) disease is caused by a bacterial infection that can lead to the destruction of tissue and bone around your teeth which can cause tooth loss. ARESTIN® is an antibiotic treatment that comes in powder form and is placed inside infected periodontal pockets just after the scaling and root planing (SRP) procedure. How does Arestin work? ARESTIN® powder contains “Microspheres,” which are tiny, bead-like particles that are smaller than grains of sand and are not visible to the eye. The Microspheres are filled with the antibiotic minocycline, and they release the drug over time into the infected periodontal pocket, killing bacteria that live there. If you have gum disease, adding ARESTIN® to scaling and root planing (SRP) will help kill bacteria at the root of the problem. Speak with your dentist if you think you may be a candidate for Arestin.

A primary source is a document that was created during the time period being studied. This includes newspaper and magazine articles, original film reviews, pamphlets, interviews, government publications, manuscripts, diaries, and other sources that speak to the context of the time period. Primary sources provide firsthand evidence of historical events recorded by those who lived it, and as such usually need to be contextualized with more recent secondary sources like histories of the time period and academic film criticism in journals. You can usually find clues to specific primary sources by looking through secondary materials like books and scholarly articles written in the present day. These often include bibliographies of the primary works used as references, and can give you ideas about other ways to search for your topic. Some more recent books also include reprints of primary sources. Find primary sources on this guide via: You may also want to take a look at digitized primary sources from the Motion Picture Academy's Margaret Herrick Library, which include materials from the Academy Awards, Mary Pickford, and Production Code Administration Records:

BAD at times tables? Just zap your brain with electricity. Roi Cohen Kadosh at the University of Oxford and colleagues have shown that you can boost mental arithmetic by delivering an electrical signal to the brain, exciting the neurons. Using such transcranial random noise stimulation (TRNS), electrodes were placed on the scalp over areas including the prefrontal cortex – used for mental maths. The team gave 25 people TRNS and 26 a sham treatment. Both groups were initially equally fast at their sums. After five 40-minute sessions, the people given TRNS were twice as fast at mental calculations and their rate of improvement was twice that of the other group. Their ability to recall arithmetic facts such as times tables improved five-fold in both measures. Six months later, half the group returned for retesting. The TRNS group still performed the calculations 28 per cent faster than people given the sham treatment (Current Biology, doi.org/mj2). Cohen Kadosh says TRNS could be useful for children with learning difficulties, or help to rehabilitate people after a stroke. This article appeared in print under the headline “For speedier sums, electrify the brain”

Officials of the Union of Turkish Chambers of Agriculture (TZOB) said that 4.1 million hectares fields have been fallowed in Turkey. We are not rich enough for this. In an important parts of the fallow fields can be cultivated legume by alternation. We have a production deficit in legumes yet. Turkey has 2.5% share of production of legumes in the world. Although we were growing legume in 20 million hectares in the 1990s, today this figure dropped as much as 8 million decare. Legumes serve biological fertilizer. They enrich soils in terms of nitrogen and they increase yields in agriculture. Legumes should be encouraged for alternation. In dry and semi dry alternation areas we should grow chickpea and lentil, in irrigated areas we ought to cultivate bean. Officials emphasized government should increasingly continue to payment of premium supports for legumes producing. They also want to shouldn’t allow import of legumes in harvest periods.

An ESL/EFL Handbook Marcel Danesi, Ph.D. - All books by this author Many students of English as a second language are daunted by the complexities of English grammar and its terminology. This user-friendly book was written especially for them. The emphasis here is on practical use of written and spoken American-style English, rather than on theory. The first of the book’s 15 chapters explains different kinds of sentences—affirmative, negative, and interrogative, as well as clauses and phrases that are component parts of many sentences. Several chapters that follow focus on different parts of speech, describing their uses in verbal and written communication. The book’s later chapters discuss vocabulary, standard protocols in conversational speech, and modes of expression, such as preferences and dislikes. A separate chapter presents guidelines for composing letters, e-mails, résumés, and other written forms. Short quizzes for self-testing appear throughout the text, with answers given at the back of the book. Paperback / 336 Pages / 6 x 9 / 2006

According to IEEE 242, when the generator neutral is grounded through an impedance limiting the maximum ground-fault current to a value less than the primary rating of the CTs, a differential ground fault scheme (Device 87G) should be considered. A differential ground-fault scheme, however, is capable of detecting faults to within 10% from the generator neutral. A neutral CT, separate from the ground overcurrent relay CT, may be necessary for maximum relay sensitivity. The ground differential CT should have a primary current rating of 10% to 50% of the neutral resistor-current rating. The neutral-CT-turns ratio and tap setting of the overcurrent relay should be selected to provide an operating current of 5 to 10 times its pickup setting for a bolted line-to-ground fault at the generator line terminals. The pickup setting should be at least equal to and preferably greater than the pickup setting of downstream ground overcurrent devices for selectivity between those relays. The pickup setting should also be set above the anticipated level of any harmonic current flowing in the neutral during normal conditions.

Wednesday, April 8, 2009 Today we started the day off like usual with mental math. It took a little longer today because lots of us didn't understand question 5. It involved interecting a cone perpendicularly with a plane and Mr. Maksymchuk was asking us what shape would the intersecting be. Which in the end we found out the answer was a circle. After mental math was over we were able to work on either Accelerated Math or work on Excercise 1, 2, and 3 which are due A.S.A.P. Also our goal for 35 objective in mental math is due for April 23rd.

Loss of segments of the bowel can lead to imbalances and symptoms related to gastric acid, bacterial overgrowth, and bile salt malabsorption. Managing Gastric Acid Hypersecretion Gastric hypersecretion happens when the stomach produces too much acid. It must be addressed after significant resection of the small bowel. It will increase the volume of secretions entering the small bowel and increase acid in the upper gut. Loss of segments in the small bowel results in a change in the levels of hormones involved with digestion (cholecystokinin or CCK, secretin, and gastrin) that results in continued acid secretion. This increased acid load causes erosion of the gut lining and an increased stool volume contributing to diarrhea, and electrolyte losses. In addition it alters pancreatic enzymes, and compromises bile salt function making them less effective. The treatment for gastric hypersecretion is acid suppression through H2 blockers, and proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). - Next >>

Deflation is defined as a decrease in the general price level. - It is a negative inflation rate. - Deflation means the value of money will increase. - Deflation is often associated with periods of negative or stagnant economic growth (Great Depression, Japanese economy in 1990s, early 2000s). In fact deflation is often used to express a declining economy AD AS Diagram Showing Deflation Deflation is considered harmful to economy because - People delay spending, hoping prices will be cheaper next year - Workers resist nominal wage cuts, therefore, real wages rise causing real wage unemployment. - Real interest rates become too high. Even interest rates of 0% cannot induce people to spend creating a liquidity trap. - Deflation increases the burden of debt Deflation caused by rising AS However, if deflation is caused by rising productivity, improved technology and lower costs, the deflation may not be harmful but beneficial. - Problems of deflation - Questions about deflation - Causes of deflation - Reasons for Europe’s deflationary pressures of 2013

Tier I: Mathematical Methods of Optimization. Section 4: Multi-Objective Optimization. Introduction. Multi-objective optimization (MOO) is the optimization of conflicting objectives. Usually, solutions of this type form a typical shape, shown in the chart below: For the following feasible region with objectives f1 & f2 where both f1 & f2 are minimized: One way to imagine finding points on the Pareto front is by using a combination of numerical weights for the two objectives: If this is done for a 90° span of lines, all the points on the Pareto front will be found.

Hey! There's a Bugaloo Hey! There's a Bugaloo is about a boy and girl who ask Professor Wordworth "What is a Bugaloo?" Professor Wordworth is a Bugaloo expert because he created this silly creature. Page by page, whimsical rhyme and ridiculous words create this imaginary, cute creature. As the Bugaloo becomes more and more outrageous, the boy and girl suspect the Professor if "pulling their leg." It's a story that has fun with words and putting them together to create something very different. It's sure to bring a smile to every reader.

The European Union’s proposals for revising its renewable energy policies are greenwashing and don’t solve the serious flaws, say environmental groups. The EU gets 65 per cent of its renewable energy from biofuels – mainly wood – but it is failing to ensure this bioenergy comes from sustainable sources, and results in less emissions than burning fossil fuels. Its policies in some cases are leading to deforestation, biodiversity loss and putting more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere than burning coal. “Burning forest biomass on an industrial scale for power and heating has proved disastrous,” says Linde Zuidema, bioenergy campaigner for forest protection group Fern. “The evidence that its growing use will increase emissions and destroy forests in Europe and elsewhere is overwhelming.” View original post 221 more words

Building on their previous research focusing on vaccination within a tumor (intratumoral) for the most common form of pancreatic cancer, investigators from Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey and Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School have shown that in a mouse model of early stage resected pancreatic cancer, intratumoral vaccination induces an anti-tumor response that results in a significant improvement in overall survival. Results of the work were presented as part of a poster presentation at the 70th Annual Society of Surgical Oncology Cancer Symposium held this past week in Seattle. The group’s previous work focused on the investigational vaccine known as PANVAC. PANVAC contains gene additives that might stimulate a person’s immune system to recognize and develop an immune response to the disease. Read more . . .

In Their Own Words February 08, 1733 Journal Entry on Colonists’ Supplies Early Georgia colonist Peter Gordon recorded the basic supplies provided each family, and the beginning of construction on houses: “Thursday the 8th each family hade given out of the stores, an iron pott, frying pan, and three wooden bowls, a Bible, Common Prayer Book, and Whole Duty of Man. This day we … sett about sawing and spitting boards eight foot long in order to build clapp board houses, to gett us under better cover till our framed houses could be built… .” Source: [no author or editor cited], Our First Visit in America: Early Reports from the Colony of Georgia, 1732-1740 (Savannah: Beehive Press, 1974), p. 15.

Readings for the Circumcision and Name of Jesus (Jan. 1) Luke 2:21; Galatians 3:23-29; Numbers 6:22-27 What is the power behind a name? A name has power only if the person to whom that name is attached has proven himself to be reliable and trustworthy. The name “Jesus” means “The LORD saves”, and this is what we can count on him to do – without fail! We pray in Jesus’ name because we know he has power and will answer us (Lk 2). You and I bear the name of “Christ-ian” because we belong to Christ through our baptism. As we live by faith in him, we bring honor to his name (Gal 3). God instructed Moses and Aaron to bless the people by speaking His personal name over them. “The LORD bless you and keep you…”. The blessing is powerful and effective because of the One whose name it invokes (Num 6.)

This Adorable Hummingbird Is Sleeping, Wait Until You Hear It Snoring! Hummingbirds make humming sounds created by their beating wings which flap at high frequencies audible to humans. Did you know they can also make a noise similar to a snore? A female Amethyst-throated Sunangel sleeps as a machine measures how much oxygen she consumes. The bird was later released unharmed by the researchers. They believe that the bird was in the early stages of arousal from deep torpor after disturbance. The gaping of the bill is a way for the bird to bring in more oxygen to warm its body. The high-pitched sound is a cute side effect.

Answer: Trichinella spp. larvae Congratulations to Chris, Sue, Anonymous, and the UVM resident who wrote in with the correct answer. This is a beautiful example of Trichinella larvae in skeletal muscle. Unlike the 2-dimensional histologic section, the squash preparation allows you to visualize the 3-dimensional nature of the larva in the muscle nurse cell. To faciliate this type of preparation, you can either press the muscle between 2 glass slides, or use a specially designed instrument - the Trichinelloscope. There is also artifical enzymatic digestion and PCR, both which can be used to identify Trichinella sp. from muscle biopsies.

For some time, scientists have believed that BDNF helps explain why mental functioning appears to improve with exercise. However, they haven’t fully understood which parts of the brain are affected or how those effects influence thinking. The Irish study suggests that the increases in BDNF prompted by exercise may play a particular role in improving memory and recall.So, alternate that butt-in-chair time with a little time on the trails. Not only does it feel good, it improves learning. Thursday, December 22, 2011 Don't Forget Exercise In the NY Times article How Exercise Benefits the Brain we learn that this oft-reported claim has been tied to a mechanism:

According to researcher, Karteek Kadimisetty, “Some people use e-cigarettes heavily because they think there is no harm. We wanted to see exactly what might be happening to DNA, and we had the resources in our lab to do that.” Studies have shown that DNA damage and cellular mutations are possible with increased vaping. Of course, to most people, the news might be too surprising. Inhaling smoke — no matter where it comes from — generally isn’t a good idea. So if you’ve been thinking vaping was the way to go to preserve your health, you might want to think again.

It’s the ninth time that workers on this particular line have found such a wreath, reports Discovery.com. The workers were digging a new set of tunnels in Thessaloniki when the latest wreath was discovered. The wreath was found in a tomb — described as “box-like” and “Macedonian” — on the head of a body. It has been dated from the Early Hellenistic Era about 2,300 years ago. Made of gold, the wreath features olive leaves. Such wreaths were usually reserved for royalty or the very wealthy. This wreath is the first to be found since eight were discovered in a woman’s tomb in 2008. In all, more than 23,000 artifacts have been dug up since work on the subway tunnel began.

For steam system to work properly, it is important to maintain reasonable velocities of liquid passing through piping. Velocity is constant for a given flow rate and independent of pipe length. Pipe diameters are selected to achieve a velocity of 5-10 feet per second. Chart versions of the data used to build this calculator are also available. Schedule 40 or Schedule 80 Pipe Schedule and Size Schedule refers to strength of pipe. Wall thickness of pipe varies based on dimensions of pipe as defined in ASME standard 36.10. Pipe Outer Diamater (OD) Pipe Inner Diamater (ID) Velocity and Friction Loss Velocity and Friction Loss are derived from the the nominal pipe size chosen from Pipe Schedule and Size and pump flow rate. gallons ⁄ min (GPM) —feet ⁄ second —psi ⁄ 100 feet Velocity is over 5 feet/second. Caution is advised. Velocity has exceeded 10 feet/second. Displayed velocity is a result of computation only and is not for practical application.

HDR stands for High Dynamic Range and refers to an effect used on photos to help bring out the best possible qualities in every area of a photo. Most photos have certain areas that aren't well lit so they appear much darker than the properlylit parts of the photo, making it diffucult to see any detail in the dark areas. The big contrast in lighting also makes the photo look uneven in general. HDR involves taking several pictures of the exact same scene, with each photo shot at different exposures (usually 3), thus creating the "dynamic range" of lighting in the photo. The first photo is taken at a low exposure creating a dark image (allowing very bright areas of the photo to look more natural), the second photo is taken at a standard exposure setting (creating a "normal" looking photo with a few dark and bright spots), and the third photo is taken at a very high exposure (which brightens up dark areas so detail is seen in those areas). The 3 photos are then combined with special software which combines the best looking parts of all 3 photos to create a a very evenly and well lit photo with details visible for every part of the photo. See some examples below!

|Chairman||Thorben Dunse||Department of Geosciences, University of Oslo| |Vice-Chairman||Prof. Martin Sharp||Dept. of Earth & Atmospheric Sciences University of Alberta| The Arctic Climate Impact Assessment (ACIA) already concluded in 2004 that the Arctic is warming rapidly in an amplification of the global rise in temperature. Obviously this conclusion leads to an immediate concern for the huge ice masses stored in the Arctic, in the Greenland Ice Sheet and in the circumpolar ice caps and glaciers. The ice caps and glaciers of the Arctic are currently reacting strongly to climate change, causing a significant contribution to sea level rise. The Greenland ice sheet has in recent years surprised the research community by exhibiting a large-scale synchronous accelerating mass loss on the time-scale of a few years, rather than centuries as previously assumed. The IASC Network on Arctic Glaciology, formed out of the Working Group on Arctic Glaciology, aims to address these rapid changes in arctic ice masses by initiating scientific programs and facilitating international cooperation between glaciologists and climate modelers in order to develop the understanding of arctic land ice and its role in global climatic and environmental change.

Sunday, 6 April 2014 Here's a fun game to learn words you usually use in present perfect tense. Read the sentences carefully and choose the word that completes each sentence best. You will see the instructions to play on the screen before you start the game. Enjoy yourself. Saturday, 8 December 2012 Let's revise some time expressions! There are exercises where you have to fill in the gaps with the right verbal tense. Time expressions can help you in certain sentences, so it's important to identify which are used with a specific tense. In the exercise below, you will see time expressions and labeled dustbins. Drag each time expression to the right tense: present simple, present continuous or past simple. It's quite easy!

Medical errors cause more than 250,000 deaths every year in the United States, enough to make them the nation’s third-leading cause of death if they were recognized in official statistics, experts say. If the statistical rules change, medical mistakes would trail only heart disease and cancer as a leading cause of US fatalities. “Incidence rates for deaths directly attributable to medical care gone awry haven’t been recognized in any standardized method for collecting national statistics,” says Martin Makary, professor of surgery at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. Researchers performed their calculations based on eight years of US medical death rate data. The results reflect the fact that national death statistics are derived from a system built for another purpose: generating bills and collecting insurance payments.

Pieter van den Berg, Lucas Molleman, and Franz J. Weissing PNAS March 3, 2015 vol. 112 no. 9 2912-2917 It has often been argued that the spectacular cognitive capacities of humans are the result of selection for the ability to gather, process, and use information about other people. Recent studies show that humans strongly and consistently differ in what type of social information they are interested in. Although some individuals mainly attend to what the majority is doing (frequency-based learning), others focus on the success that their peers achieve with their behavior (success-based learning). Here, we show that such differences in social learning have important consequences for the outcome of social interactions. We report on a decision-making experiment in which individuals were first classified as frequency- and success-based learners and subsequently grouped according to their learning strategy. When confronted with a social dilemma situation, groups of frequency-based learners cooperated considerably more than groups of success-based learners. A detailed analysis of the decision-making process reveals that these differences in cooperation are a direct result of the differences in information use. Our results show that individual differences in social learning strategies are crucial for understanding social behavior.

Cell Culture includes all relevant processes required to grow and maintain cells outside of their natural environment. Many cell lines have been developed as standards for certain cell types. A cell line is all cells derived from an original single cell. This is important because all cells within a cell line are genetically identical and represent a standard for different cell types. For example, the cell line MCF-7 is a standard for cancerous mammary cells and U87 is a standard for glioblastoma cells. Cell culture practices allow these cell lines to be tested and observed in order to better understand how they behave in response to changes such as the insertion or deletion of genes, varying solutes in their media, varying external conditions, and more.

Coppicing is a traditional woodland management technique that creates a unique habitat that has vital biodiversity benefits. Many British flowering plants, mammals and insects thrive under this rotational system - many rarer species are only found in working coppice for example the Dormouse or 'dozing mouse' or 'sleep mouse' prefers to live in a shrub layer which has plenty of undergrowth such as working coppice. Creating access paths or 'rides' and making glades also allow light into woodland to the benefit of butterflies and other insects. Hedges and woodland strips, which act as essential corridors for wildlife also respond well to coppicing or in some cases can be cut and laid. In other areas, where hedges have been pulled up because of modern farming methods, or damaged by stock, they may need to be replanted. You don't have to be a skilled woodsman to help with coppicing. Volunteers are often used for light coppicing of hazel and birch using bow saws a 'loppers' like long-handled secateurs. Groups will sometime be accompanied by skilled chainsaw operators - but there is always a volunteer leader on hand to demonstrate the art of coppicing.

A cancer diagnosis and the prospect of cancer treatment is overwhelming, even for the most positive person. As you prepare to begin treatment for cancer, it is important to take some time to set your intentions, define your priorities, and identify opportunities for healing and support. Science tells us that psychological stress can affect the immune system, which is the body's defense against infection and disease including cancer. Reducing stress benefits us physically, mentally, and emotionally. You may find comfort in joining a support group, keeping a journal, reading, listening to music or a relaxation CD, taking a walk, having a cup of tea while burning a therapeutic scented candle, taking a Yoga class, or having a massage. Massage therapy is the manipulation of tissue, which improves circulation and relaxation. Reflexology is a gentle, non-invasive technique, free of side effects, that restores vitality, improves health, and can promote relaxation and a feeling of well-being. Reflexology uses the feet and hands as a map of the body, each part relating to a specific body area. Relaxation not only feels great, but it can provide both physical and emotional benefits during and after cancer treatment. Become an active participant in your healing.

Men are more likely than women to develop atrial fibrillation (afib)—a rapid, erratic beat in which the heart's upper chamber doesn't contract forcefully, allowing blood to pool and increasing the risk of clotting. However, some—but not all—studies have indicated that afib poses a greater stroke risk in women than in men. To settle the question, an international team of researchers looked at 30 studies with 4.4 million participants. They found that compared with men who have afib, women with afib have a 12% higher risk of death from all causes and almost double the risk of having a stroke or dying from one. The results were published online Jan. 20, 2016, by the journal BMJ. Women notoriously neglect the symptoms of afib—feeling weak, breathless, or unusually fatigued. If you have afib symptoms, get medical attention, even if you think it's only a virus. There are several successful treatments for afib as well as for preventing stroke in women who have afib.

To raise tasty rhubarb, growers must grow a quality crop, keeping it free of diseases, weeds and insects such as the rhubarb curculio, stem borer and others. Specific pests feed on leaves or stems of celery, leaving growers to wonder about their crop’s yield and quality. Keeping kale dark and green in the field and maintaining vitamins and minerals in the plant mean growers must control insects that feed or suck on this leafy vegetable. One such pest includes the whitefly. Three insects that like to feed on this vegetable are the corn rootworm, cutworm and European corn borer. Let’s look more closely at them here. A management plan for controlling pests like blueberry maggot and cranberry fruitworm is necessary. Soft aphids can multiply into an overwhelming aphid population if not controlled. Here’s how to drive away those pesky squash bugs and squash vine borers Get familiar with armyworms, corn borers and maggots While climate change is not the sole cause of stress to honey bees, the links to climate change are clear Learning more about fruitworms, stink bugs and leaf-footed bugs

How Are Seedless Navel Orange Trees Grown? A seedless navel orange tree is grown by grafting a bud from a twig of a grown navel orange tree to the rooted seedling of another citrus tree. When the bud begins to grow, the original top of the root-stock is cut off. The grafted bud then grows into a new navel orange tree. The seedless navel orange was developed in California after two trees bearing seedless fruit were brought from Brazil in 1973. Navel oranges are a mutated seedless variety of orange. Navel orange trees are small to medium sized citrus trees, growing up to 20 feet tall. Oranges vary greatly in the number of seeds they contain. Most varieties contain many seeds. Oranges are called “seedless” if they contain five seeds or fewer.

Love and Chivalry Knights going into battle for the pure love of a woman—that's one of the enduring images of the medieval era. Chivalric orders first appeared with military activities against non-Christian states. Through the Renaissance, Europeans aggressively sought to expand their areas of control. Crusades were fought for a variety of motives, but they were, for the most part, wars over religion. The Catholic Church sought to harness both the knight's energy and martial skills-and found a role for him in the church's structure of society as protector. Rules were formulated under which a "just war" could be fought and enlisted the knights to fight for them in the Crusades. Chivalry's virtues were piety, honor, valor, courtesy, chastity, and loyalty. The first orders of chivalry were very similar to the monastic orders of the era. Both sought the sanctification of their members through combat against "infidels" and protection of religious pilgrims, and both had commitments that involved the taking of vows and submitting to a regulation of activities. Three of the most well-known orders, the Templars, Hospitallars and Teutonic knights, tried to add components of piety, faith, humility and chastity

Many fruits — including avocados, bananas, pears, peaches, and tomatoes — will ripen better when placed in a paper bag. To hasten the ripening process of any fruit, place an already ripe apple or banana peel in the same bag and store it at room temperature. To ripen green bananas, wrap them in a damp dishtowel before placing them in the bag. Once your fruits have adequately ripened, you can halt the process by putting them in the refrigerator. Some of the fruit from that bushel of peaches you just bought at the local farm stand are hard as rocks. Place the fruit with a few already ripe pieces or some ripe bananas in a plastic bag. The ripe fruit will help soften the others through the release of their natural gas. But don’t leave them for more than a day or two or you’ll have purple, moldy peaches.

Have you seen an Indian Myna (bird) recently? These birds are not native to Australia and aggressively compete with native birds and animals that need tree hollows to nest in. They are also scavengers around eating areas and create a lot of noise from communal nesting. Mynas also increase the fire risk in ceilings if they get into your roof due to the dry grassy material they bring in for their nests. If that is not bad enough they carry mites so you really don’t want them in your ceiling.This gives you an idea why it is better to not encourage them into your area. They are quite common in larger cities. To get a better idea on where they are locally and hopefully deal with isolated populations, it would be handy to know where you have spotted them. The easiest way to do this is to go onto mynascan and map the location. You will need to register. It is an easy process and this mapping program is also used to map other pest such as rabbits and foxes. You may like to add any sighting of these pests as well.

Autophagy and Mitophagy in Cardiovascular Disease Autophagy contributes to the maintenance of intracellular homeostasis in most cells of cardiovascular origin, including cardiomyocytes, endothelial cells, and arterial smooth muscle cells. Mitophagy is an autophagic response that specifically targets damaged, and hence potentially cytotoxic, mitochondria. As these organelles occupy a critical position in the bioenergetics of the cardiovascular system, mitophagy is particularly important for cardiovascular homeostasis in health and disease. Consistent with this notion, genetic defects in autophagy or mitophagy have been shown to exacerbate the propensity of laboratory animals to spontaneously develop cardiodegenerative disorders. Moreover, pharmacological or genetic maneuvers that alter the autophagic or mitophagic flux have been shown to influence disease outcome in rodent models of several cardiovascular conditions, such as myocardial infarction, various types of cardiomyopathy, and atherosclerosis. In this review, we discuss the intimate connection between autophagy, mitophagy, and cardiovascular disorders. - © 2017 American Heart Association, Inc.

Anthriscus sylvestris is a beautiful, delicate short lived herbaceous perennial/biennial and is related to parsley, carrot, hemlock and hogweed, all of which are members of the carrot family (Apiaceae). It is reported to be poisonous to some mammals and can be easily confused with its more toxic cousins such as hemlock/hogweed, so care should be taken when identifying A. sylvestris. A. sylvestris can grow up to 0.6 metres in height and is hardy to zone 7 (UK). Flowering between April to June, producing self fertile, hermaphrodite flowers which are pollinated by bees. Wildlife & Eco Gardens can not take any responsibility for the ingestion, use or any adverse reactions from the use of plants. Always seek professional advice before using a plant medicinally. - Leaves can be eaten either raw or cooked - Historically A. sylvestris has been used as a general weakness tonic by soaking the roots for several days in rice washings before being cooked. - Leaves and stems can make a short lived green dye.

Psychological resilience is defined as an individual's ability to properly adapt to stress and adversity. Stress and adversity can come in the shape of family or relationship problems, health problems, or workplace and financial worries, among others. The word resilient comes from Latin resili, or resilīre, meaning - to spring back, to rebound, to recover. As the world of work and life seem to become faster and faster, plus expectations become higher and higher, maybe now is the time to step back and take a new approach to: - Mental resilience - Personal resilience - Business resilience - Cultural/social resilience and more... Our resilience training has a core set of principles that can be applied in any setting so our trainings tend to be flexible to meet the needs of those attending. The trainings include - CBT/NLP to build strategies for change - Problem solving ‘from problems to solutions’ - Emotional intelligence and the ‘emotional hostage’ - Mindfulness and awareness - Relaxation and stress management - Ground Hog day thinking and more.... Please contact us to discuss further and arrange sessions on-site for you and your team.
