Arrondissements of the Creuse department

There are 2 arrondissements in the Creuse department. The French departments, and in other countries, are divided into arrondissements, which may be translated into English as districts (in some cases, as boroughs). The capital of an arrondissement is called a subprefecture.

If the prefecture (capital) of the department is in an arrondissement, that prefecture is the capital of the arrondissement, acting both as a prefecture and as a subprefecture.

Arrondissements are further divided into communes.

The arrondissements of the Creuse are:

History
Since its creation, the Creuse department has had few changes:
 1790 : creation of the department with seven districts: Aubusson, Bourganeuf, Boussac, Évaux, Felletin, Guéret and La Souterraine; the capital was Guéret, alternating with Aubusson but soon only Guéret remained as capital.
 1800 : creation of four arrondissements: Aubusson, Bourganeuf, Boussac and Guéret.
 1926 : the arrondissements of Bourganeuf and Boussac were eliminated.

Heart block

Heart block is a type of heart disease.  The human heart uses electrical signals to make the heart beat.  Electricity travels down pathways in the heart to make each part of the heart beat at the right time.  

When a person has a heart block, there is a “block” in one of these electrical pathways.  This blocks electricity from travelling normally through the heart.  This makes the heart beat more slowly.

In the most serious cases, the heart’s electrical pathways are blocked so badly that electricity cannot travel through the heart.  This means the heart’s electrical signals cannot control how the heart beats, or cannot make the heart beat at all.

Symptoms 
Many people with heart block have no symptoms at all.

Other people only have symptoms every once in a while.  Sometimes, their heart might skip a beat.  This can make the person feel dizzy; faint; or have palpitations (feel their heart pounding).

In the most serious cases of heart block, a person's heart cannot control their heart beats.  These cases can be treated with an artificial pacemaker.  This is a medical device that is placed into the heart.  It sends electrical signals to make the heart beat regularly.

Causes
Some people are born with heart block.  This is called a congenital heart block.

More often, people get heart block later in life.  Heart block can be caused by:
 Other types of heart disease, like a heart attack
 Some infections, like diphtheria
 Some medicines, like beta-blockers (a type of medicine for high blood pressure)
 Having open-heart surgery

Types of heart block 
There are three main types of heart block.

First-degree heart block 
This is the least serious type of heart block.  It usually causes no symptoms.

Second-degree heart block 
In second-degree heart block, it takes longer and longer for the heart to send electrical signals from the middle of the heart to the ventricles, which pump blood to the body.  Eventually, this leads to a skipped heart beat.  This can cause dizziness and fainting.

Third-degree heart block 
This is the most serious type of heart block.  It is also called a complete heart block.  In this type of heart block, no electrical signals reach the heart's ventricles.  This means that the electrical signals cannot make the heart pump blood to the body.

Some people with third-degree heart block may have very few symptoms and may not need treatment.  However, some people with third-degree heart block have many different symptoms.  Third-degree heart block can be a medical emergency.  This type of heart block may be treated with a pacemaker.

Diagnosis
Heart block can be diagnosed with an electrocardiogram (also called an ECG or an EKG).  This is a painless test.  During the test, pads are placed on a person's chest, arms, and legs.  They record the heart's electrical activity.

A cardiologist can help diagnose heart block and order other tests if they are needed.

Function (biology)

Function in biology is what a part of the body or cell does in relation to the whole. It is the reason some part or process occurred in a system which evolved by natural selection.

A similar definition is "the function of a component in an organism is the contribution it makes to that organism's fitness".

The term is used especially in physiology, in phrases like "the function of the kidneys is to excrete urea from the body" or "the function of the heart is to push blood around the body". It is incorrect to use the word 'purpose' instead of 'function', because the word 'purpose' implies forethought.

Arrondissements are further divided into communes.

Law of Azerbaijan

The law of Azerbaijan is made up of many levels of codified forms of law. The laws of Azerbaijan are based on civil law. As the country was a republic of the Soviet Union until 1991, its laws have also been influenced heavily by socialist law. Today Azerbaijani law is heavily based on the laws Germany, France and Italy which also use civil law.

Criminal law
The current Criminal Code of Azerbaijan came into force in September 2000, replacing the older Criminal Code of 1960 which was based on Soviet law. The current Azerbaijani criminal law is based on the criminal laws of Germany, France and Italy.

Sources of law
Unlike common law systems such as the United States and the United Kingdom, Azerbaijani courts do not rely on case law and judicial precedent and there are no unwritten laws in Azerbaijani law. Except for decisions of the Constitutional Court of Azerbaijan, decisions of the courts are not usually counted as a source of law. The sources of law in the Azerbaijani legal system are:
The Constitution of Azerbaijan.
Acts adopted via referendum.
Laws passed by the National Assembly of Azerbaijan, Azerbaijan's legislature.
Decrees.
Resolutions of the Cabinet of Minister.
International treaties to which Azerbaijan is a participant.

Court system
The Constitutional Court of Azerbaijan as the highest court of the country, makes the most important and final decisions on civil, criminal and other cases. It is the court of last resort and it has more power than all other courts. Decisions of lower courts can be cancelled here. The Constitutional Court of Azerbaijan has the power to interpret and apply the Constitution of Azerbaijan, especially if laws violate the constitution.
