Charminar is one of the oldest construction in Hyderabad by the Nizams in the Telangana State of India. Mohammed Quli Qutb Shah who built in the year 1591 AD in Islamic tradition with a Height 48.7 m (160 ft). This construction is a miracle of Number of Means 4. Charminar Hyderabad has an inseparable connection with ‘Char’, which has a four hundred years history. Know the Interesting Facts of Char-Minar from here. Everyone knows that Char Minar is named behind its four pillars but there is another hidden truth behind its construction i.e in all its construction we can see ”char” as the count. With the name, you can also find the Char-Minar Express which travel between Hyderabad & Chennai (Tamil Nadu). It is the most well-known train in South India. Charminar has a distinction of being one of the world’s greatest architects. Charminar built to reflect ‘Four’ in every aspect is a living testimony to the art of architecture and art. It did not have a name due to only four minars. Many of the causes that led to the construction of the Archeology and Museum department research led to the light. Surprisingly, Charminar has another 20 reasons to name it. The 40 faces of the Charminar constructed to divide the four dimensions of the four. It is a miraculous architectural style. The four minarets are also 60 yards. These can also divide into four. This historic building is like a patrolling soldier in a four-story junction. It is one of the few historical monuments built in India. The total area of the construction of the Charminar is 840 square yards. There are four galleries in each minaret. The first two galleries have 20 rows. There are 12 archives in 3,4 galleries. Even if the total of these arcs combined, the 44 will divide into four. There are also four in each measurement in Charminar. Four appearances in the architecture and the construction of the arches. The fourth floor of the second floor consists of four clocks on the four sides. There are 44 vacant spaces for the balcony sculptures in each Minar. In Char Minar, there are four vacant spaces on the front of the wide arches of this structure. There are a total of 32 such places. On the first floor, there is a water pool with 16 yards per square meter between the arches and the minarets. Between each minaret is 28 yards. The square space for a square space between the arches and the minarets is 12 yards. On the four sides of it, 48 square yards were left for the construction of the arches. There are stairs in each minaret to move up the structure. There are four arches to reach that step and 140 steps in each minaret. Each Minar is a beautiful dome-shaped. Outside sides of the Char Minar Archs are 28 yards. The height of the minarets is 32 yards. On the second and second floors, 16 small and large arches are on either side. There are 16 arches on the third floor. Jolly built with beautiful work. There is a small mosque on this floor. Prayer to worship. The mosque has four minarets. These interesting facts hidden in the construction of the Char Minar. Now it does not matter how many fours added to it. Char-Meenar is a structure consisting of four pillars. It is one of the oldest historical monuments in Hyderabad. It is in Old Basti, Hyderabad. Due to the popularity of this historical monument, Charminar knows for its surrounding area. It has a well-built Mecca Masjid in the northeast with the Lad-Bazaar and the western grenade. A few days after his capital transferred from Golconda to present Hyderabad city, Mohammed Quli Qutb Shah remembered for the prevention of plague in 1591. Beautiful Charminar is losing its beauty due to smoke pollution. According to the ‘Charminar Pedestrianizone’ scheme announced in 1997, only pedestrians should walk only around three hundred meters around Char Minar. Thereby the pollution can reduce and there is an increase in greenery. Tourists can also enjoy the delight. The Department of Tourism has spent a whopping Rs 34 crore for this scheme. Currently, the GHMC funds which are doing these tasks have sought help from the Center. Officials said that the target would fulfill if another Rs 70 crore spent. Hyderabad, also known as Charminar, also known for its Qutub Minar in Delhi. It is also among the settlements. Two decades ago the government developed a 30 acres space park. There no roads until the Falling distance. Around the empty space declared as a protected area, their trees that scattered on an ATM. More secure. It is 150 years older than Charminar but still remains intact. You can see many Charminar images of different times how it looked from its construction time. This is all about it & its History.

Candidates for these roles will acquire specific expertise working spray and software tools. Whereas its attainable to have a day at 18C in both Winter and Spring, the garden will still be semi-dormant in Winter and actively growing in Spring, this is because of the soil temperature which is most responsible for determining whether a lawn is actively growing, or surviving in a state of semi-dormancy. All weed control products are different, but generally, it isn’t advisable to plant new grass inside 4 months of using a crabgrass preventer, or inside 1 month of utilizing different weed control products.(Until the product is designed to be used when seeding.) At all times seek advice from the product label for specific information associated to the weed control product you’re utilizing. For cool-season grasses, the very best time to plant is early fall or early spring which is the second wager time. Executed once a year (normally early spring or early fall), this allows water to get previous any thatching or compacted soil and to the roots. Planting in fall avoids several springtime issues: cool soil temperatures delay germination; soil could also be too moist to organize; weeds dominate the early rising months. The rule of thumb says you will get the most effective results by selecting fall as the very best time to plant grass seed. Spring is by far the perfect time of yr to plant a brand new roll on garden or seed garden. With out further nitrogen, your lawn can be pale inexperienced until the straw is completely decomposed. The man who just throws down seed within the fall, because it is the greatest time, however with out much thought or effort will be the dissatisfied one. We’d wish to think you’ll be so impressed with our superior grass care and pest management companies that you will hold coming again 12 months after year. Observe the instructions on the bag for the proper unfold charge for a new garden and apply the fertilizer. You might be capable to preserve the weeds out by mowing your grass at the highest setting on your mower. It was immensely heavy (it was fabricated from forged iron ) and difficult to manoeuvre in the garden, and did not minimize the grass very nicely. This creates a bond between the seed and soil, which reinforces the wick effect of water movement from soil particles to the seed. Usually, a mix of grass or low plant types is used to form a stronger lawn when one sort does better within the hotter seasons and the opposite in the colder ones.

According to the American Heart Association, the American Cancer Society and the United States Department of Agriculture’s Nutrition and Your Health, Dietary Guidelines for Americans, healthful, nutritious eating patterns can stem from many combinations of foods from all of the five major food groups including the meat group. Less than 50% of the fat in pork, beef and veal is saturated. Today’s pork is so lean that it is important not to overcook it. For fork-tender, juicy pork, the USDA recommends cooking pork to medium-done – an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit. Remember to think, “slightly pink”. Protein is the building block for the body. It strengthens the immune system and helps maintain the blood. The protein in meat (pork) is “complete” protein – it contains vitamins, minerals, and amino acids.

The drugs designed for treating Parkinson’s disease focus on a certain protein in one specific tissue. However, that very same protein has a possibility to perform a function in a completely different tissue. As a result, off-target effects occur. Moreover, scientists have been trying to find a solution for this problem. This is the reason why they focus on coming up with other drugs can be very effective, but the scientists never considered them. Therefore, they have to think outside the box to come up with new, more innovative, solutions. Scientists found a number of medications for asthma along with clenbuterol, which might be useful for Parkinson’s. They believe that this medication can lower the risk of developing Parkinson’s disease. When a certain group of neurons dies, the same neurons that help regulate the muscle activity, they can lose control of the muscles and cause tremors. As a result, Parkinson’s disease starts to develop, and the dead cells start to accumulate. With the help of brain tracking, researchers were able to see that the adrenaline receptors reacted to the drugs and can lower the risk of developing this disease. Moreover, people who have more copies of the gene (that comes from the protein α-synuclein), are highly more likely to develop Parkinson’s later in their life. Therefore, scientists decided to come up with a drug that can suppress it. A huge team started examining more than 1,000 different drugs that might prove useful for solving this problem. In addition, they decided that only 35 were used for reducing the overall activity of the protein α-synuclein. Furthermore, the chemicals in the drugs can activate the adrenaline receptors and decrease the levels of this protein. Fortunately, these drugs are in use, but people use them to treat asthma. However, they might prove useful for relaxing the muscles as well. There are two medications that proved problematic, like salbutamol and propranolol. People use propranolol to balance the blood pressure and irregular heartbeats. However, researchers believe that these medications can slightly increase the chance of developing Parkinson’s. Even the stem cells reacted to these drugs. As a result, the α-synuclein protein might reduce and decrease the mortality of the cells. In the end, researchers believe that people shouldn’t rush to get these drugs because they are not approved by the FDA to treat Parkinson’s. But, if you do try to take them as a medication for treating Parkinson’s, you might increase the chance of cardiovascular diseases.

This website is an overview of the history, mythology and current scientific knowledge of the planets, moons and other objects in our solar system. Each page has our text and NASA's images, some have sounds and movies, most provide references to additional related information. All planets can be seen with a small telescope or binoculars and private observatories continue to provide useful information. But the possibility of getting up close with interplanetary spacecraft has revolutionized planetary science. Very little of this site would have been possible without the space program. Nevertheless, there's a lot that you can see with a telescope for kids or very modest equipment or even with just your own eyes. Past generations of people found beauty and a sense of wonder contemplating the night sky. Today's scientific knowledge further enhances and deepens that experience. And you can share in it by simply going out in the evening and looking up. The Sun is by far the largest object in the solar system. It contains more than 99.8% of the total mass of the Solar System (Jupiter contains most of the rest). It is often said that the Sun is an "ordinary" star. That's true in the sense that there are many others similar to it. But there are many more smaller stars than larger ones; the Sun is in the top 10% by mass. The median size of stars in our galaxy is probably less than half the mass of the Sun. Jupiter is the fourth brightest object in the sky (after the Sun, the Moon and Venus). It has been known since prehistoric times as a bright "wandering star". But in 1610 when Galileo first pointed a telescope at the sky he discovered Jupiter's four large moons Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto (now known as the Galilean moons) and recorded their motions back and forth around Jupiter. In Roman mythology Mercury is the god of commerce, travel and thievery, the Roman counterpart of the Greek god Hermes, the messenger of the Gods. The planet probably received this name because it moves so quickly across the sky. Mercury has been known since at least the time of the Sumerians (3rd millennium BC). The IAU changed the definition of "planet" so that Pluto no longer qualifies. There are officially only eight planets in our solar system. Of course this change in terminology does not affect what's actually out there. In the end, it's not very important how we classify the various objects in our solar system.

On behalf of Law Offices of Stephen Santucci, PC posted in Immigration Detention and Removal on Thursday, February 15, 2018. The path to citizenship isn't always clear, and sometimes, individuals get caught in predicaments while attempting to become legal residents of the United States. Due to recent events, one man remains in immigration detention while he and his attorney fight to have him returned to his home. Although this incident happened in another state, individuals located in New York may be interested in hearing about the man's troubled journey while seeking citizenship. The man, a chemistry instructor, is fighting deportation and is now located in a detention center. He was sent to the center after being taken off of a plane headed back to his home country. A federal judge ordered a second stay in the man's case, so he avoided deportation at that time. This individual has lived in the United States for 30 years but unfortunately has not yet been successful in achieving citizenship. His wife and children are U.S. citizens, and the man remains hopeful that he will be able to stay with them. The man is looking at all his options so that he can be removed from the detention center and returned home to his family. Unfortunately for this person, he remains in immigration detention for now. Some will wonder why the individual had not yet completed his citizenship process. Those familiar with U.S. immigration know that the process can be complicated and messy. In New York, a person who wishes to become naturalized may wish to consult with an experienced attorney with knowledge of current immigration law for assistance.

What does a yak look like? The average male yak can grow to about 2 meters tall, with the female yak being about 1/3 the size of the male yak. All yak have very long hair to keep them warm. The yak belongs to the same cow family as the Asian water buffalo, the African buffalo and the American bison. However, the yak is slightly more like the American bison in appearance as both the yak and the bison have long hair in order to withstand the colder climates, the bison of the North American winters and the yak of the mid-Asian mountains. What does a yak eat? Like other species of cow, the yak is a herbivore and spends a great deal of time on grassy plains in the mountains grazing on grasses, herbs and wild flowers. In a similar way to other cow species the yak has more than one stomach which the yak uses to successfully get all of the nutrients out of the plants that it eats. The yak has firm, dense horns which the yak uses to break through snow in order to get the plants that are buried beneath it and the yak will also use it's horns in defence. They have long shaggy hairthat covers their bodies that keep them warm and dry. Download free Yak wallpapers, click on the image to open the large version.

The Mendip Hills are the most southerly Carboniferous Limestone upland in Britain. Carboniferous Limestones were laid down during the early Carboniferous period, about 320–350 million years ago. Subsequently, much of northwestern Europe underwent continental collision throughout the late Paleozoic era, culminating in the final phases of the Variscan orogeny near the end of the Carboniferous period, 300 million years ago. This tectonic activity produced a complex suite of mountain and hill ranges across what is now southern Ireland, south-western England, Brittany, and elsewhere in western Europe. As a result of the Variscan mountain-building, the Mendip area now comprises at least four anticlinal fold structures, with an east-west trend, each with a core of older Devonian sandstone and Silurian volcanic rocks. The latter are quarried for use in road construction and as a concrete aggregate. Mendip was considerably higher and steeper 200 to 300 million years ago, since when weathering has resulted in a range of surface features including gorges, dry valleys, screes and swallets. These are complemented underground by a large number of caves, including Wookey Hole, both beneath the plateau and at the base of the southern escarpment. There are also limestone pavements and other karst features. Dissolution of the limestone produced many of the gorges including, most famously, Cheddar Gorge and Burrington Combe. Springs, a number of which deposit tufa, are a particular feature of the eastern part of the hills. The Devonian and Silurian rocks are generally more resistant to weathering than the limestone, and form some of the highest points on the hills, including the highest at Beacon Batch on Black Down, 325 metres above sea level. Black Down is a moorland area, with its steeper slopes covered in bracken and its flatter summit in heather and grasses rather than the pasture which covers much of the plateau. The main body of the range is an extended plateau, 4 to 5 miles wide and generally about 240 metres above sea level. In some areas the Carboniferous Limestone and the dolomitic conglomerate have been mineralised with lead and zinc ores. From the time of Roman Britain until 1908, the hills were an important source of lead. These areas were the centre of a major mining industry in the past and this is reflected in areas of contaminated rough ground known locally as "gruffy". The word "gruffy" is thought to derive from the grooves that were formed where the lead ore was extracted from veins near the surface. Other commodities obtained included calamine, manganese, iron, copper and baryte. The eastern area reaches into parts of the Somerset Coalfield. North and east of Mendip, the same Carboniferous Limestone layers are found in the subsurface and are exposed in Avon Gorge, but younger strata overlie the Carboniferous Limestone in Dundry Hill and the Cotswolds, where oolitic limestone of Jurassic age is found at the surface. West of the main Mendip plateau the Carboniferous Limestone continues in Bleadon Hill and Brean Down, and on the islands of Steep Holm and Flat Holm.

It is self-evident that the content of a website plays an important role in marketing. Strategies for content marketing and SEO should be designed first to ensure that they can work together to enhance their own brand and products. Additionally, site content is also a good marketing strategy while SEO can let the role of site content be bigger and better. Google said that the algorithm of search engine changed more than 400 times in 2009. There is one change or more on average day, although most are minor changes. But it also illustrates the frequency of algorithm changes. Related technicians of Baidu mentioned in Baidu Club that Baidu algorithm minor changes a day, great changes a month.

According to a Dispatch analysis, a two-vehicle rear-ender on a clear, dry day — is the most common of the 830 wrecks that happen on average every year in the corridor that includes I-71 from 5th Avenue south to Greenlawn Avenue and I-70 from 18th Street west to Mound Street. Thom Slack, managing engineer at the Ohio Department of Transportation, and other officials have studied the area for years, trying to come up with a fix. The one they chose will cost about $800 million — one of the most expensive road projects in Ohio history — and will take as long as five years to complete. Work is set to begin in 2011. Eventually, the project will create five lanes in each direction — two dedicated to I-71 traffic, two to I-70 traffic and a single center lane for both. The leg of I-71 between I-70 and I-670 will expand to three lanes in both directions. In the four years until construction starts, more than 3,300 crashes can be expected along the stretch, causing millions of dollars in hospital and repair bills, thousands of hours of traffic delays and several deaths.

December is the twelfth and last month of the year in the Gregorian calendar, with 31 days, coming between November (of the same year) and January (of the next year). With the name of the month coming from the Latin decem for "ten", it was the tenth month of the year before January and February were added to the Roman calendar. December always starts on the same day of the week as September, and ends on the same day of the week as April. December's flower is the Narcissus. Its birthstone is the turquoise. The meaning of the turquoise is prosperity. December is the 12th and last month of every calendar year in the Gregorian calendar, and is one of seven months of the year to have 31 days. December 31 is followed by January 1 of the following year. December begins on the same day of the week as September every year, as September 1 and December 1 are exactly 13 weeks (91 days) apart. December ends on the same day as April every year. If the following year is a leap year, then March of that year would start and end on the same day of the week as December of the year that came before. November of the following year would then start on the same day of the week as December of the current year. If the following year is a common year, then December of the current year starts on the same day of the week as June of that year. The month of December has a solstice, and in this month the Tropic of Capricorn in the Southern Hemisphere is turned towards the Sun, meaning that December 21 or December 22 is the Northern Winter Solstice and the Southern Summer Solstice. This means that this date would have the least daylight of any day in the Northern Hemisphere, and the most in the Southern Hemisphere. There are 24 hours of darkness at the North Pole and 24 hours of daylight at the South Pole. In each hemisphere, December is the seasonal equivalent of June in the other. December Facts for Kids.

Q1. Explain any one method of crop production which ensures high yield. Ans. Crop rotation is one of the methods of crop production that ensures high yield. It is the method of growing two or more varieties of crops on the same land in sequential seasons. A crop utilises some particular nutrients in larger quantities from the soil. Then, if the same crop is grown in subsequent seasons those nutrients will get depleted in the soil. Therefore, crops having different nutrient requirements are rotated. For example, legumes which have nitrogen-fixing bacteria in their root nodules supply the soil with nitrogen. Therefore, these legumes are rotated with nitrogen requiring cereals such as wheat and maize. This method reduces the need of fertilizers, thereby increasing the overall yield of crops. Q2. Why are manures and fertilizers used in fields? Ans. Manures and fertilizers are used in fields to enrich the soil with the required nutrients. Manure helps in enriching the soil with organic matter and nutrients. This improves the fertility and structure of the soil. On the other hand, fertilizers ensure a healthy growth and development in plants. They are a good source of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. To get an optimum yield, it is instructed to use a balanced combination of manures and fertilizers in the soil. Q3. What are the advantages of inter-cropping and crop rotation? Ans. Inter-cropping and crop rotation both play an important role in increasing the yield of crops. Inter-cropping helps in preventing pests and diseases to spread throughout the field. It also increases soil fertility, whereas crop rotation prevents soil depletion, increases soil fertility, and reduces soil erosion. Both these methods reduce the need for fertilizers. It also helps in controlling weeds and controls the growth of pathogens and pests in crops. Q4. What is genetic manipulation? How is it useful in agricultural practices? Ans. Genetic manipulation is a process where the gene for a particular character is introduced inside the chromosome of a cell. When the gene for a particular character is introduced in a plant cell, a transgenic plant is produced. These transgenic plants exhibit characters governed by the newly introduced gene. For example, let us assume there is a wild plant that produces small fruits. If the gene responsible for a larger fruit size is introduced in this plant, this plant becomes transgenic, and starts producing larger fruits. Similarly, genes for higher yield, disease resistance, etc. can be introduced in any desired plant. Therefore, gene manipulation plays an important role in agricultural practices. It helps in improving crop variety. It ensures food security and insect resistant crops. It also improves the quality and yield of crops. Q5. How do storage grain losses occur? Ans. Factors responsible for such losses are biotic— insects, rodents, fungi, mites and bacteria, and abiotic— inappropriate moisture and temperatures in the place of storage. These factors cause degradation in quality, loss in weight, poor germinability, discolouration of produce, all leading to poor marketability. These factors can be controlled by proper treatment and by systematic management of warehouses. Q6. How do good animal husbandry practices benefit farmers? Ans. Cattle farming is one of the methods of animal husbandry that is most beneficial for farmers. Using this method, better breeds of draught animals can be produced. Such draught animals are engaged in agricultural fields for labour work such as carting, irrigation, tilling, etc.

There are many ongoing solar energy projects which have been causing quite a bit of excitement in the renewable energy world. There has been much research into solar technology and the different possible real world applications of this technology. This research has finally started to bear fruit, as companies all around the world are now constructing some of the largest solar power plants ever built, and the number of these huge solar plants is sure to continue rising in the upcoming years. Europe is the worldwide leader when it comes to producing solar energy. The majority of the world’s largest solar power plants are located in Europe, and that list was recently added to when the Andasol solar power plant in Spain became operational in December 2011. Andasol is the world’s largest solar power plant and utilizes over six hundred thousand parabolic mirrors to form a solar thermal collector. Andasol is capable of producing 150 megawatts of power, which is more than enough to provide electricity for over 500,000 inhabitants. One of the most important features of Andasol, and any other solar power station, is the ability to cut down on CO2 emissions by producing clean energy. Andasol can reduce CO2 emissions by up to 500,000 tons per year which, when combined with the other solar power stations, can help us take a huge step in drastically reducing CO2 in the atmosphere. In fact, Spain is the location of four of the six largest solar power stations in the world, and some regions of Spain are already able to cover over 50% of their energy needs through solar or other clean forms of energy. The world’s other largest solar power stations are also located in Europe, with one of them being the Waldpolenz Solar Park in Germany and the other located in Portugal. However, Andasol is slightly different from the rest of these solar power stations, as the rest relies on traditional photovoltaic solar panels arranged in massive arrays. The biggest criticism of these plants is that the solar arrays cover such a vast area of land, for the relatively low energy output. The Mojave Desert, like all other deserts, is an ideal location for solar power plants due to the climate and the high number of sunny days each year. This is why there are so many solar power plants under construction in this area. There are currently nine solar plants running in the Mojave Desert under the combined name of the Solar Energy Generating Systems or SEGS, and these plants currently have an electricity output of around 350 megawatts, which combined makes them the largest solar energy producer on the planet. However, this is nothing compared to the new plants which are currently being constructed in this California desert. Google has invested $168 million to the Ivanpah facility which is currently under construction and should be operational sometime in 2013. This plant will utilize the world’s largest solar thermal towers and has an expected output of almost 400 megawatts of electricity, which would more than double the output of SEGS. While this is quite impressive, it’s still nothing when compared with the Blythe Solar Power Station which is currently being built near Riverside, California. When completed, this solar thermal power station is expected to produce 968 megawatts of electricity, that’s almost one gigawatt, which would further increase the energy generation capabilities of SEGS to almost two gigawatts. There has been much talk of the increased production of solar energy in India and China. Both countries have been investing a large amount of money into solar power plants, and there has been a lot of planning for some incredibly large solar plants to be built in these countries. However, nothing compares to the plans for the integrated solar city that is in the planning stages of being built in the Indian state of Gujarat. This project is still very much in the planning stages, and it has not yet been announced whether this solar plant will utilize large solar panel arrays or solar thermal collectors, or possibly a combination of the two. However, they currently are hoping this plant will be able to produce 5 gigawatts of power (5000 megawatts) which would make it produce more than double the energy of even the largest nuclear power plants. Like India, China has some very grand plans of their own for generating clean solar energy. In March 2011, China announced plans to construct facilities capable of generating over 235 million kilowatts of energy, and they believe that they will be able to produce over 5 million kilowatts by 2015. China is planning huge solar power stations in many of its more remote areas, and if they are able to even come close to their goals, then they will be far and away the world’s leader in solar energy production. One of the biggest power stations that they have announced is the solar farm that is currently under construction in Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region. This plant is an integrated solar combined cycle station (ISCC), which utilizes solar thermal collectors, but also a gas fired turbine to increase its efficiency. While this plant is not truly solar, the emissions it releases will be very minimal. This solar power station hopes to be able to produce almost 100 megawatts of electricity when construction is completed in 2013. The majority of China’s new solar power stations will most likely be ISCCs or at least utilize solar thermal collectors, and China hopes that this new plant can be a model on which many new solar power stations are based.

This lesson provides an overview of the respiratory system. In particular it focuses on the physical aspects of breathing, and the importance of gas exchange for respiration and life. We need oxygen to live. When we breathe in, oxygen travels in the air through the trachea and bronchi, into the bronchioles and finally reaches numerous sac-like structures called alveoli. The thin surfaces of the alveoli are in contact with blood vessels calledcapillaries. At the alveoli, oxygen enters the blood to be carried to cells in the body. Waste carbon dioxide in the blood is excretedat the alveoli and expelled in the air we breathe out. What is the Irish connection with breathing? Robert Boyle (1627 – 1691), the Irish chemist showed that a change in the volume of a fixed mass of gas causes a change in pressure. If the gas volume increases the pressure decreases and vice versa. When the air in the lungs expands, its pressure decreases to less than atmospheric pressure. But its pressure rises above atmospheric pressure when it is compressed. Air moves from higher to lower pressure until the air pressures are equal. Therefore by creating a pressure difference, air can be moved into and out of the lungs.

DAVID: When I enter something as above, I assume you understand that I have not changed my mind about the goal of a human species with our magnificent brain. He also created an enormous diverse bush of life along the way which helped to supply the energy for evolution to continue for a very long time (3.8 billion years). You use an IM and I suggest built-in patterns of development. Why are you incredulous that God would want to carefully guide His plan of evolution? dhw: My incredulity concerns the idea that the God you keep saying is in total control should specially design millions of innovations, lifestyles and natural wonders extant and extinct when all he wants to do is create the brain of Homo sapiens. The fact that evolution has gone on for 3.8 billion years so far does not mean it was all for the sake of your brain and mine. It simply means that life has gone on for 3.8 billion years so far. It makes far more sense to me to suggest that since evolution has produced this astonishing and ever changing variety, what he wanted – if he exists – was an astonishing and ever changing variety. I don’t have a problem with the idea that your controlling God could interfere at any time he liked, possibly even to guide one of the twigs towards a species blossoming into sapiens. But guiding the weaverbird to build its nest so that he could guide a different twig to sapiens makes no sense to me. Multiply that example by umpteen million. As usual you skipped over the need for energy for life to continue from 3.8 billion years ago. And you express no surprise that a so-called meaningless, purposeless evolutionary process produced the human brain. I see purpose, control and appropriate econiches to supply the energy. I see MY God acting in the way I propose. I know I can't convince you.

The summer is usually peak vacation season. With the kids out of school, most families are looking to hit the road in search of an adventure. Some families want to see more of the world when going on vacation, which is why they will go on a European Getaway. While these getaways can be a lot of fun, they will have to be planned properly to avoid stressful situations. Finding a professional that is experienced with this part of the world is a great way for a person to get the guidance they need. Below are some things a person will need to consider when planning a European vacation. The biggest mistake that most people will make when planning a trip like this is getting their itinerary too full. Booking too much stuff can make a family feel overwhelmed and will make them rush through this experience. The best thing to do when trying to have fun on one of these adventures is to stay loose. Leaving a bit of wiggle room in the schedule is important because it will allow a family to explore more and not be held down by the attractions they have booked. Another issue that most people have when going on a trip like this is waiting until the last minute to book their accommodations. The longer a person waits to do this, the harder it will be for them to get a good deal. Using a travel agent is a great way for a person to find out about the deals available to them. For most travelers, finding great deals on their hotels and flights is important, which is why getting some professional guidance is important. Before hiring a travel agent, a person will need to do their homework. In order to have a great time on a European Getaway, a lot of research will need to be done. At www.travelworm.com, a person will have no problem getting the guidance they need regarding their travel accommodations. Visit their Facebook page to see what they can provide.

Regular exercise is an essential part of life which many people do not follow. This is the main cause for all the obesity that is prevalent at present. When a person exercises, there are a lot of benefits that he gains, including weight loss. However, if he performs exercises on a daily basis, he would not put on weight at all. Thus, there is a connection between exercise or weight loss. The weight that a person puts on is defined by the number of calories that is retained inside the body without being used. These calories convert into fat and cause obesity. However, the body uses some of these calories to derive energy and function smoothly. Thus, when a person exercises, he uses up most of the calories that he consumes, preventing the formation of fat. In case he has already put on weight, he will reduce the fat with exercise. To burn more calories, you need to do streneous exercise followed by healthy diet. The best form of exercises are gym, yoga, dance and sports activity. However, you should know that merely exercising will not give you the complete results. There are a few requirements that you have follow. A balanced diet is one of the prime requisites. This diet should have the appropriate number of calories that is suggested for the male or female body respectively. Consuming more calories that required will lead to weight gain. Apart from weight loss, there are other healthy benefits that exercise provides. Physical exercise prevents the risk factors of many diseases which can prove to be fatal. Cholesterol is one such potential threat to a cardiac arrest. Heart diseases are prevented as the heart muscles are made strong with exercise and also by lowering the blood pressure in the body. Diabetes patients can also benefit from weight loss as type-2 diabetes is controlled through physical activities. There are various exercises which help in the process of weight loss. You can however select any type of sports and household chores to get the task done. The best and the simplest way of exercise is to go for a good jog either in the morning or in the evening. Going to the gym is another option that many people choose. They also hire a gym instructor in order to make sure that they are performing the exercises in the right way. Performing wrongly would be more of a harm that benefit. Thus there is a strong connection between exercise and weight loss as the former helps the person in losing good amount of weight through natural ways.

Using solar energy produces no air or water pollution and no greenhouse gases, but does have some indirect impacts on the environment. For example, there are some toxic materials and chemicals, and various solvents and alcohols that are used in the manufacturing process of photovoltaic cells (PV), which convert sunlight into electricity. Small amounts of these waste materials are produced. In addition, large solar thermal power plants can harm desert ecosystems if not properly managed. Birds and insects can be killed if they fly into a concentrated beam of sunlight, such as that created by a "solar power tower." Some solar thermal systems use potentially hazardous fluids (to transfer heat) that require proper handling and disposal. Concentrating solar systems may require water for regular cleaning of the concentrators and receivers and for cooling the turbine-generator. Using water from underground wells may affect the ecosystem in some arid locations.

Renewable energy sources, such as wind energy and photovoltaic (PV) energy, are widely used as stand-alone power systems supplying different electrical loads in rural and remote areas. Solar Energy, radiation produced by nuclear fusion reactions deep in the Sun’s core The Sun provides almost all the heat and light Earth receives and therefore sustains every living being. These sources are of intermittent nature and, therefore, the stand alone power systems should include storage battery banks. Therefor the implementation of the battery and the PV system should be done through a charge controller. An efficient charge controller can be used to do the battery charging and discharging process faster and better. The charge controller is designed with a view to decrease the battery charging time, protect the battery from over charge and deep discharge. Photovoltaic solar systems can be divided into two basic categories – On grid (connected to the electrical grid) and off-grid (also stand alone or isolated) solar systems. The grid connected systems feed the electricity produced by solar panels to the grid using an inverter. When the electricity is needed during night or periods with little sunlight, the energy is taken back from grid. In isolated systems, the excess electricity is usually stored in battery during the day and battery is used to power the appliances in times when photovoltaic panels do not produce enough energy. In this field must say that the most important component in the off-grid systems is the charge controller. The main responsibilities of the charge controller are performance and durability functions. Charge controller is also named a solar regulator as it coordinates and regulates the main components of the system which are the PV generator, battery and loads. Usually the voltage of the charge controller is 12/24V and 48V which matches the batteries' voltage. There are two main types of charge controllers: PWM and MPPT. The charging mode is the main difference between the two types. PWM charge controllers use the Pulse-Width-Modulation technique while the MPPT controller uses the Maximum Power Point Tracking technique which gives 30% more energy than the PWM controller. In this project, the PV system will be connected to the Charge controller that will be designed, then the battery will be connected to the charge controller, and the load (in this project will be a DC load) which will be connected to the charge controller also. The charge controller in this case will control the power flow from the PV system to the load and the power flow to and from the battery. Between the PV system and the charge controller will be a solid switches or a contractor, also a switches will be inserted between the charge controller and the battery and between the charge controller and the load, all these switches will be controlled from the micro controller that used in the charge controller, in this project will be Arduino. The aim from this project is to control the PV system through the internet and getting complete information about the battery state and the load power consumption, energy produced from the PV system, Energy saved in the batteries. The charge controller will protect the battery from over charge and deep discharge, if the battery reaches the full state of charge the controller will disconnect the power that comes from the PV cells, and when its charge falls down the controller will reconnect the PV system to the battery. Also when the charge of the battery falls down to the desired value the controller will disconnect the load to protect the battery from deep discharge, if the deep discharge occurs to the lead acid battery, the life time of this battery will be affected directly and it will be damaged. Voltage and current sensors will be inserted between the PV system, the battery, the load and the charge controller, which gives us the ability to deal with the system and controlling it.

What do different coastal features look like? The Coastal Features resource sheet for lesson one shows images of different coastal features. These features are: 1. Tombolo; 2. Beach; 3. Salt marsh; 4. Cave, Arch, Stack; 5. Bay; 6. Headland; 7. Cliff; 8. Spit; 9. Peninsula. Tombolos, beaches, salt marshes and spits are formed as a result of deposition. Caves, arches and stacks, bays, headlands, cliffs and peninsulas are formed as a result of erosion. Go to the British Geographer website for details and diagrams of how each of these features are formed. Why might coastal features change over time? Coasts are dynamic systems which result in changes over time. Continuous erosion and or deposition will lead to coastal features changing over time. How might coastal features change over time? Erosion over time of a headland, for example, can lead to the development of a cave which can develop into an arch and eventually a stack and stump. Go to the British Geographer website for further information on these changes along with an over view of how other coastal features change over time. Watch the PowerPoint What is a coast? You will see a number of different coasts from around the world. Work with a partner and use the evidence in the photographs to put together an answer to the question, what is a coast? Feedback your answer to the rest of the class and put everyone’s ideas together to create a class definition. Your teacher will give you a blank world map and a resource sheet (Coastal Features) with nine images of different coastal features. On the board will be a list of these features: beach; cave, arch, stack; cliff; tombolo, peninsula, spit, salt marsh, headland; bay. You have to see if you can guess which feature is which. Once correctly labelled, use an atlas to locate the different places for each feature on your blank map. Next to the label, which should state the place name and coastal feature, you should draw a diagram to show that feature based on the image on the Coastal Features sheet. Choose one of the features you have looked at during today’s lesson. Think about how this feature might change over time? Would you expect it to look the same in 100 years’ time? Why do you think the feature you have chosen might look different?

Artificial management is needed to prolong the life of open wetland habitats. Here at Travis, some marshland habitats favoured by wetland birds can be best preserved by continuing to graze cattle. These plantings along the edges of Angela Stream are recreating glimpses of what primeval Christchurch would have looked like. Keeping barriers between people and protected wildlife unobtrusive but effective is an importand restoration issue. Restoring native forest is a long-term goal. This willow woodland is being managed to encourage the establishment of plants typical of native swamp forest. Restoration takes advantage of the habitat layers that already exist in the willow woodland. Although modified, most of the wetland soils and habitats that once dominated the Christchurch area are still present here. This biodiversity rivals that of iconic Riccarton Bush. Preserving historical buildings and structures is an important part of the telling the story of how wetlands were used in the past and the associated impacts.

It’s Foucault’s famous Pendulum, swinging away in the Pantheon, in Paris. As you can see by the markings, it can claim to be a sort of 24 hour clock. As the earth slowly rotates underneath the swinging pendulum, you can imagine the whole building – and the rest of Paris – moving slowly counterclockwise – or to the right in this picture – with the pendulum swinging freely to and fro in space. The theory is simple, but in practice it doesn’t make a good clock. For one thing, Paris is perched on the side of the earth at latitude 50 degrees, rather than situated at the pole, and so the top of the pendulum moves around the earth’s axis as well. At this latitude, the pendulum will rotate through about 270 degrees in one day, rather than the whole 360. Also, the pendulum will gradually stop swinging due to air resistance and friction. There’s no electro-mechanical device in the ceiling that keeps it going, so it will slow down and eventually stop anyway. The attendant in the Pantheon usually grabs the bob and releases it from the right place at the start of the day.

1. SIZE- of the micro dots using Beauty Medical’s technique is much tinier (equal to the size of the hair follicle) as compared to the dots in the other picture 1. In this case some practitioner had used permanent ink with commonly used tattooing machine and needle. As you can see the size of the dots created are almost 4-5 times the size of the human hair bulb. The diagram on the picture compares the sizes visually. 2. COLOR- the color difference in the picture 1 is clearly visible. The dots have over time turned bluish. 3. PIGMENT DIFFUSION- there is a diffusion or leaching out of the color/pigment so it gradually giving the scalp a bluish tinge. Repeating the same process will eventually leave the person with a uniformly blue scalp instead of the illusion of hair bulbs.

The main objective of CSO business project is to introduce into the market the innovative MD-SD-OCT, a new ophthalmology instrument, which is able to detect, with a single tool, a range of optical pathologies wider than the state of the art technologies are capable to support, with higher performances and significant reduction of manufacturing cost. This target has been reached through the integration of traditional topography approach (Placido's disk) and innovative patented Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography (ref. WO 2014/155286 A1), into a single, compact and flexible diagnosis device, real breakthrough for the market at the state of art. As a results of the technology innovation proposed and due to the usage of a less expensive technology invented by CSO (new SD-OCT management system, covered by international patent), the overall cost of the device is significantly lower than the existing applicable technology (about 40% less). CSO - with higher performance, significantly lower cost and new double technology MD-SD-OCT - will be able to improve its competitiveness in the market of ophthalmology diagnosis devices. Design and monitoring of specialized contact lenses. During the first year of the project, all the technical issues related to the existing prototype have been solved and TRL #7 has been reached while EC type-examination activities are running in order to get to #8. Five prototype’s evolutions have been realized and tested with excellent results. The small-scale production of the first 15 items to be validated in operational environment is started. TECHNOLOGY IMPROVEMENT: represent a benefit in terms of competitiveness for the end user. The technology at the state of the art, is not able to provide the integration of two different diagnosis systems. PRICE: significantly lower price. The customer will pay less, for an higher performance device. PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT, in terms of image resolution, measurability of all the are covered by the diagnostic device and in terms of accuracy of the output, thanks to the new patented SD-OCT technology. RELIABILITY of the medical result: it will allow detecting pathologies in an early state and, at the same time, avoiding false detection. Cataract is the process of progressive loss of the lens transparency. This process, linked to phenomena of oxidation of the proteins that form the lens, is the result of a biochemical phenomenon that occurs with increasing age. The increase in life expectancy has already led to an increase in the number of cases, so that today the intervention of cataract removal is one of the most performed in hospitals all over the world. It consists of the removal of the opaque crystalline and the implementation of an artificial lens. MS-39 can be useful to evaluate opacification of the lens and above all to calculate the power of an artificial lens best suited to the patient according to his needs and to the shape of the structures of his eye. Glaucoma is an important disease because it can cause irreversible damage if not detected in time, and, if not treated properly, can cause serious damage to the eye or even low vision and blindness. Among the risk factors of glaucoma are anterior chamber narrow angle. The device can capture and measure the irido-corneal angles and assess this risk. Corneal transplant is an operation aimed at all diseases of the cornea that reduce visual acuity or opacity of the tissue (post-infectious or post-traumatic scars, corneal dystrophies or degeneration) or its distortion (keratoconus, trauma). The operation involves replacing the damaged tissue with a donor cornea. The new corneal flap, which restores the transparency of the cornea, allows the patient to recover vision. The high resolution of the images of the anterior segment sections allows to assess with a certain facility the outcome of a corneal transplant and to carry out measures for the evaluation of the optical quality after surgery. The ability to measure very accurately the anterior corneal surface makes it an important instrument for planning refractive surgery, to correct defects of myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism.

Misdiagnosis hits many Pennsylvanians every year - Soloff & Zervanos, P.C. On behalf of Soloff & Zervanos, P.C. Posted in Medical Malpractice on Friday, February 6, 2015. Diagnosis is one of the most important steps in treating a Pennsylvanians’ health condition. When it comes to the diagnostic process, Pennsylvania residents are no different from most Americans. These people have a tendency to trust every word their doctors say about their condition. This is not surprising considering that doctors and other health care providers study for several years and acquire adequate experience before they are able to actually practice. Despite that, doctors are humans who are not exempt from committing errors, including failure to diagnose or misdiagnosis. In fact, according to a 2014 study released in the British Medical Journal Quality and Safety, diagnostic errors may impact as many as 12 million American adults every year. That is approximately one out of every 20 adults. The researchers revealed that half of those medical errors are lethal to patients. Of the different medical conditions that are prone to misdiagnosis, the researchers listed some of the most commonly misdiagnosed diseases. For one, heart ailments kill millions of people every year. Some of those deaths may be attributed to the doctor’s misdiagnosis. According to the report, doctors may often miss the signs of a heart attack because the symptoms vary. Older adults may not have the same symptoms as younger people. Doctors may also misdiagnose fibromyalgia because it has symptoms of widespread muscle and joint pain. It may be mistaken as rheumatoid arthritis or lupus. Thyroid disease, aortic dissection, and pulmonary embolism are also commonly misdiagnosed because of the similarity in the symptoms to other conditions. Unfortunately, cancer is included in the most common misdiagnosed disease list as well. A report from the Journal of Clinical Oncology states that a cancer misdiagnosis happens as much as 28 to 44 percent of the time. A national survey found that the most misdiagnosed type of cancers are breast cancer, lymphoma, melanoma and sarcomas.

Sustainable energy is the future for America’s power needs, and Black Hawk College is leading the way in sustainable energy technology. In May 2010, the conventional fossil fuel-powered 500-watt lights that illuminated the sign on the Moline 70th Street entrance were disconnected and replaced with renewable energy-powered LED lights. These six, 14-watt floodlights use a total of 84 watts of electricity, just 1/6th of the power they used to consume. The sign lighting is now powered by clean, renewable energy generated from two solar panels and a micro-wind turbine. The solar panels and wind turbine will alternate charging the battery bank that powers the light at night, depending upon weather conditions. This project was supported by a grant from the National Science Foundation. It and similar projects will be used to educate not only Black Hawk College students, but middle and high school students from around the Quad Cities. On the BHC campus, the micro-wind turbine and solar panels will be used for research and development in the college’s Sustainable Energy Program. View more pictures. Sustainable energy comes from sources like sun and the wind, is available every day and cannot be used up. Non-renewable energy sources, or fossil fuels, were made over millions of years by the buildup of plants and animals, sand and mud, and will one day run out. Fossil fuels used every day are coal, oil and natural gas. Fossil fuels pollute. They produce gasses like carbon dioxide (CO2) that trap heat and cause global warming. Not only is sustainable energy a source that will never deplete, it is also non-polluting. All forms of sustainable energy discussed here produce energy without emitting harmful pollutants. This makes solar, wind, geothermal, and biomass-produced energy a good idea for our country’s future and a growing source of jobs as the sustainable energy industry grows. With its focus on renewable/sustainable energy and a commitment to giving students the skills they need for tomorrow’s technology, BHC offers a Sustainable Energy certificate. This 50-credit hour program can be completed in four semesters and includes AutoCAD, DC circuits, hydraulics/pneumatics, mechatronics, logic systems and sustainable energy systems, among other courses.

There is more to health than preventing and curing disease. Apart from disease, we live our lives surrounded by forces that threaten our health and safety, and can dramatically change the state of our health and well-being. Threats to the health of Michigan residents can come in all shapes and sizes, and from all directions. They can be natural or man-made, a tornado or a nuclear emergency. They can be as individual as an accidental injury, or as global as a chemical spill. We can encounter them suddenly and violently - a street crime in our neighborhood - or they can attack us stealthily and unseen - a chemical seeping into our water supply. They can jeopardize us through the air we breathe, the water we drink and the food we eat. This site details the Michigan Department of Community Health's efforts to counter these threats to the health of Michigan residents. These agencies exist to make Michigan a safer place to live and grow.

With the electric cars versus gasoline cars battle heating up, we decided to run a crosscheck to see where the two concepts stand today if they are pitted against each other. After a brief stint in late 19th century and early 20th century, electric cars are back in the market with a bang. Their resurfacing can be partly attributed to the fact that gasoline-powered cars have come under the scanner for their tendency to pollute the environment and partly to the rising price of oil over the last few years. The electric cars in production today do seem a lot better than their predecessors, but are they ready to take on their gasoline counterparts? Do they really stand any chance? The only way to find out, is to carry out a head-to-head comparison of the two. The basic difference is the source of power that they use. In gasoline-powered cars, gasoline, which is stored in fuel tanks, is used to power the engine. The engine eventually powers the transmission and this, in turn, rotates the wheels. On the other hand, electric cars use a set of batteries to power an electronic motor, which, in turn, powers the transmission and rotates the wheels. Electric cars in production today are better than their predecessors. The fact that electric cars are environment-friendly is perhaps the most important point that you need to take into consideration when you pit them against their gasoline counterparts. Gasoline cars burn fossil fuels to generate power and thus, contribute to environmental pollution. The atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide―a by-product of internal combustion engine, has increased manifold over the last few years and the rising number of gas-powered cars has an important role to play in this. Other than this environment friendliness, the fact that you can conveniently charge the set of batteries in the electric car at home itself is again an advantage. On the other hand, you will have to take the trouble of visiting a gas station to refuel your gas-powered vehicle. Even though electric cars boast of several benefits, there do exist some drawbacks. Among the numerous limitations, their hefty price happens to be one of the most important factors. Owing to high production cost of these vehicles and the additional lithium-ion battery set, the few models that are available in the market are also priced high. Similarly, the absence of public charging facilities also makes journeys a bit risky. Critics are of the opinion that calling them environment-friendly is not correct, as they are also dependent on electricity, which, in turn, is produced by burning coal. Similarly, the production of batteries that are used in these vehicles comes heavy on the environment. The cars in production today are much more efficient as compared to those of the yesteryears and there is no questioning the fact that they will continue to become better with time. It wouldn't be surprising to see an electric car which is more efficient and sleeker than the ones in production today some time in the near future. As for the difference in their cost, government is trying their best to promote the sales of such environment-friendly cars by offering tax rebates, which brings their price down by a significant extent.

We, at Chennai Aqua Pure Systems Pvt. Ltd. have reverse osmosis plant to clean and purify water by removing salts and other impurities to improve the color, taste or properties of the water. The plant can be used for purifying other fluids like ethanol, glycol, etc. Our plant is well equipped with all the instruments and required facilities to meet specific customer needs. The company prefers high quality reverse osmosis membrane elements to ensure flawless operation. Reverse osmosis (RO) was the first cross flow membrane separation process to be widely commercialized. RO remove virtually all organic and inorganic compounds 90 to 99% of all ions. We have a large selection of reverse osmosis membranes to meet varying rejection requirements. The cross flow mode of filtration continuously sweeps the membrane surface clean of impurities, which allows for many hours of trouble free and continuous operation between chemical cleanings. It is more energy efficient as compared to heat driven purification (distillation) and more efficient than the strong chemicals required for ion exchange. In this process, no energy – intensive phase change is required. Pores in reverse osmosis membranes are so small they have not yet been resolved, even by the most advanced microscopic techniques. These are generally regarded to be in the 0.0001-micron range, four orders of magnitude smaller than the finest of the normal – flow particle filter. Allow the membrane to continually clean itself. Capable of rejecting bacteria, salts, sugars, proteins, particles, dyes, and other constituents.

Freeze Substitution is a process for low temperature dehydration and fixation of rapidly frozen cells that usually takes days to complete. With the amazing work of K.L. McDonald and R.I. Webb1 they have now introduced a new method for freeze substitution with a basic kit that we are proud to offer. With this unique kit researchers are now able to achieve excellent freeze substitution results in as little as 90 minutes for cells of small volume such as bacteria and tissue culture cells. For those cells of greater volume or that have significant diffusion barriers such as cuticles or thick cell walls, one can extend the time to 3 hours simply by putting a lid on the box. Cool the metal block by submerging completely in liquid nitrogen in the ice bucket. Leave for 5 minutes or until the "boiling" stops. In a separate box, transfer samples into cryovials with frozen fixative, keeping everything at liquid nitrogen temperatures. Seal tightly and be very sure that there is no liquid nitrogen trapped in the vial. Trapped liquid can cause the vials to explode upon warming. It is best to use a room temperature lid when sealing the tube. Put the vials with samples into holes in the cooled metal block. Go to a PC (Macs won't work) that has the Lascar datalogger software installed and name and start the program. Pour off the liquid nitrogen from the block and box, making sure not to let the cryovials come out of the holes in the block. Arrange the block so the cryovials are horizontal and put the tops of the vials against one side of the foam box. Use a piece of foam or wadded up paper behind the block so it keeps the vials from falling out of the block during shaking. Turn on the shaker at 100-125 rpm and allow it to gradually warm until the temperature is at least 0°C before removing the vials for rinsing and resin infiltration. This operation should take place in a fume hood in case there is any leakage of osmium-acetone from poorly sealed vials. Freeze substitution will take about 2 hours with the lid off, and about 3 hours with the lid on (though this may vary from lab to lab). Remove the vials from the metal block and place them onto a rocker at room temperature and wait until they come to about 20°C, then stop the datalogger and save the files. Rinse out the fixative with 3-4 rinses in acetone and proceed to infiltration and embedding. Take care opening the vials as pressure built up inside can cause a spray of the freeze substitution media. Tobacco leaf prepared by the quick FS method (Webb & McDonald, 2011). Abbreviations: N = nucleus; Ch = chloroplast; CW = cell wall; Cy = cytoplasm; ER = endoplasmic reticulum; V = vacuole; and, G = Golgi apparatus. Bar = 0.5 µm. Tobacco leaf prepared as above showing details of the cell wall (CW) and chloroplast (Ch) and cell membranes. Bar = 100 nm. In well-frozen samples the water molecules are not likely to move around very much, even as the temperatures rise to a point where you would expect hexagonal ice (Dubochet, 2007). Agitation should speed up the substitution of acetone for water molecules in much the same way that agitation speeds up development of film. Water in the substitution mixture does not appear to slow down substitution as was once believed. In fact, it is known to help membrane contrast (Buser and Walther, 2008). Does it work for all samples? If a sample can be successfully freeze substituted by the old methods, then the quick FS method should work just as well. McDonald and Webb have used this procedure with complete success for over a year and a half for all the samples they have freeze substituted. If samples show evidence of ice damage then it is because they were damaged during freezing and not during freeze substitution. Typical temperature curves using the EMS Freeze Substitution Kit. With the lid OFF the time to 0°C is about 2 hours. With the lid ON the time is about 3 hours. Results may vary depending on the particular setting of the shaker.

The equipment should be used in a fume hood in case there is a leak of osmium-acetone during a run. We suggest doing a trial run with acetone only in the cryovials to make sure that they are sealed correctly. When sealing cryotubes that contain frozen fixative and sample, use a warm cap so that the O-ring is flexible and gives a good seal. Take care when removing the caps after a FS run because there is some pressure built up inside the cryotubes and you can spray osmium/acetone on your hands if you are not careful. Cover the cap with a piece of lab tissue when removing and wear gloves. Dubochet, J. (2007). The physics of rapid cooling and its implications for cryoimmobilization of cells. Meth.

A simple and safe procedure for exfoliating the epidermis and ridding the skin of fine vellus hair (peach fuzz). It has been used for many years, but many aestheticians don’t even know it exists, and certainly, many don’t use it. When patients hear the word dermaplaning, they quickly associate the term with the procedure known as dermabrasion, and won’t even consider it as a possible treatment. Dermabrasion is a medical procedure in which the skin is abraded down to the dermis using a whisklike device. There are many complications associated with dermabrasion, including infections and scarring, which is why it is not commonly used anymore. Dermaplaning, on the other hand, is a simple shaving of the epidermis.

Method or Madness? Jury Decides Hamlet's Fate Was Hamlet criminally responsible for killing his ex-girlfriend's father, Polonius? That is the question argued in a mock trial, part of a Shakespeare festival in Washington, D.C. Lawyers Abbe Lowell and Miles Ehrlich presented oral arguments before a jury. Was Hamlet criminally responsible for mistakenly killing his ex-girlfriend's father, Polonius? That is the question argued in a mock trial Thursday, as part of a Shakespeare festival in Washington, D.C., where lawyers Abbe Lowell and Miles Ehrlich presented oral arguments before a jury. The defense, represented by Lowell, argued "no." Hamlet, they maintained, suffered from something called psychotic affective disorder, and he was a bit bipolar. The prosecution, represented by Ehrlich, maintains that Hamlet was perfectly sane, knew that killing was wrong, and was in control of his actions. The Shakespeare in Washington festival continues through June of 2007.

With split systems only the solar collector panels sit on the roof and the storage tank is located at ground level. *Now no longer available under the brand Beasley refer to Rinnai hot water systems. The main benefit of this system is that the tank is installed remotely from the panels in the most convenient location – usually on the ‘blind side’ of the house. A small pump circulates the water from the tank through the panels to collect the heat energy from the sun. This pump is automatically regulated by a controller that monitors the temperature in both the tank and collector panels and optimises solar gain. Streamlined appearance - minimal impact on the aesthetics of your roof line. Split systems do not require reinforcement on the roof structure, as the weight associated. with water storage is at ground level. Collector panels and the tank do not need to be installed at the same time – ideal during. construction of new homes and major renovations. Tall solar tank provides better heat stratification, improving efficiency. With close coupled systems, the solar collector panels and the storage tank are both located on the roof. The advantage of this system is the ability to free up space around the base of the house. In the close-coupled installation, the solar tank is mounted above the collectors on the roof, and the water heated in the panels rises by the natural thermosiphon principle through the collectors into the tank, and is recirculated through the panels until the water reaches the required temperature.

Full of mystery and intrigue. The deep dusky rose pink flowers begin to open with the form of a traditional Hybrid Tea, showing a swirl of petals and a high centre.

There are lots of medium sized leaves giving good cover. Use in beds, borders or large patio containers.

At one point Hillary will most likely be asked a UFO question directly. Perhaps her team has already come up with a canned response. As long as Hillary stays in the limelight the question of extraterrestrials is fair game and it is just a matter of time before someone asks a probing question.

I love bags and backpacks. It had become quite an obsession in the last few years, and saw a lot of different options and manufacturers. I could tell within the first few weeks of using a bag whether it was going to be my primary bag for a long time, or if there were things about it that just didn’t make any sense. Then came along the Evernote Triangle Commuter Bag. I am a fanatic user of Evernote, and saw this when it was first released on their site. I was skeptical, as they’re not a big producer of bags. However, after looking at the pictures on their site, I decided to order one, as it looked like it had a lot of the features I would enjoy. The bag is very well made, with quality materials used throughout. Very easy to use zippers that feel like they will last a long time, durable fabric outside and in, and a quality feel everywhere. Usually there’s always a part of a bag that disappoints when it comes to the quality of what’s been used for materials, or a corner that is cut that you find after a few days use, but I haven’t found that here. The best part of the entire bag is it’s ability to stand up regardless of what you put in it. You can root around to find things in the bag, add and remove your laptop, and see everything in the pockets all without the bag moving a bit. The laptop slot is perfectly sized for my Lenovo Carbon X1 or MacBook Air, and still has a bit of room for some papers. Further inside is a deep area that you can segment with the included velcro dividers. This is similar to many camera bags, and is a great way of giving folks flexibility for various setups. You can lay down the velcro dividers in the bottom for storage so they’re not in the way. There are two small pockets on either end inside the bag, and then one larger and one smaller flat pockets right against the laptop section. These are great to store letters, checkbook and other random things. On the flap that folds down once you’ve unzipped things are two pockets to store loose items. One is mesh, and I use to store adapters and such, and the other is solid. The storage inside this bag is deceivingly larger than what it looks like from the outside. The triangle shape gives you a lot more space in the bottom of the bag, and the fact that it won’t tip over is amazing. Wonderful design. The front of the bag also has a mesh-like leather pocket, but I’ve not used it yet. Evernote says you can use it for iPhone and other devices you need to get a hold of quickly. It does have a lot of room in it, and would be a good place for quickly needed items. The bag is made for Evernote by abrAsus, not someone I’m that familiar with, but in reading various other reviews online, and using the bag for a couple of weeks, they sure have figured out how to develop an elegant bag. Overall, this is the best bag I have ever owned, and that’s saying a lot. I have had easily 50 bags in the last 5 years (maybe more) and always get frustrated within the first week. This one has shown none of that, and does even more than most bags could for storage, organization, looks, and functionality. And the fact that it’s from Evernote is just icing on the cake.

Dental Bridges are a method to bridge and fill the gap for one or more missing teeth between two healthy teeth. They are made up of two or more crowns on either side of the gap with a false tooth (or teeth) between. Most often, porcelain teeth are used to fill the gap to give your smile a natural look. Not only will a dental bridge restore your beautiful smile, it will also help improve your speech and chewing abilities, and will keep your natural teeth from shifting from their proper positions. The process for installment of a dental bridge is fairly easy. Upon your first visit, your crowns will be placed. The dentist will recontour the natural tooth, removing some enamel, to make room for the crown to be secured on top. Then, impressions will be made which will serve as a model for the new teeth. You will be given a temporary bridge to wear to protect your exposed gums. Upon your next visit, the temporary bridge will be removed and your dentist will place the permanent bridge. It will be adjusted accordingly to ensure a proper fit and comfort. After it is secure and correctly adjusted, the bridge will then be cemented into place, giving you a strong and healthy smile for years to come!

We have put together a list of words that are similar to GALAXY. 1 The Milky Way, that luminous tract, or belt, which is seen at night stretching across the heavens, and which is composed of innumerable stars, so distant and blended as to be distinguishable only with the telescope. 2 A very large collection of stars comparable in size to the Milky Way system, held together by gravitational force and separated from other such star systems by large distances of mostly empty space. Galaxies vary widely in shape and size, the most common nearby galaxies being over 70,000 light years in diameter and separated from each other by even larger distances. The number of stars in one galaxy varies, and may extend into the hundreds of billions. 3 A splendid or impressive assemblage of persons or things. 7 Any of numerous large-scale aggregates of stars, gas, and dust that constitute the universe, containing an average of 100 billion (1011) solar masses and ranging in diameter from 1,500 to 300,000 light-years. Also called nebula. 9 An assembly of brilliant, glamorous, or distinguished persons or things: a galaxy of theatrical performers. 10 In astronomy, the Milky Way, a luminous band extending around the heavens.

Today, most data warehouses already store the history of the data. But what about events that took place at a different time than what the data warehouse represents to us? Or data that will be valid in the future? For example, generally planned prices for products and goods in the future or special prices for discount battles around “Black Friday”. The speaker will focus in this session on the method and techniques for storing bitemporal data in a Data Warehouse. He will show bitemporal basics for a better understanding of loading data as well as the concepts to develop SQL Queries to insert and update temporal data within a Data Warehouse.

Our recycled concrete is generated from our disposal of ready mix concrete during our daily operations. This means that there is no wood, rebar, dirt, wire, and brick that are found in most recycled concrete from demolition projects. Pure recycled concrete has more cementitious fines that create a superior compactable product. Recycled concrete is mostly used as a substitute for a stone product known as DGA. Recycled concrete is a great sub-base product which compacts very well and is mostly used under paving projects. The most important attribute of recycled concrete is that it is an environmentally friendly product which cost less than DGA and can help contribute towards LEEDS projects.

The third Chipotle Adventurito puzzle was much harder than the first two. It took me awhile to figure out the answer. The answer was 13, 2013, 20, 7305, 3, 2, 411, 140, 2, 20, 10, 20, 50, 2063, which was both challenging to figure out and completely epic. The Chipotle employees have built some real high quality and somewhat whimsical challenges. The fourth challenge is about to be released. I will be working on it for a while tonight.

Nature's Gift is an accessory which can be found randomly growing on grass deep within the Underground Jungle. It looks similar to a blue Jungle Rose, however it does not glow nor light up when using a Spelunker Potion. When the flower is cut by any weapon or by other means, Nature's Gift will drop and can then be picked up by the player. While it is a decent accessory in its own right, Nature's Gift can also be used to craft the Mana Flower, which is a far more useful magic-enhancing accessory. Nature's gift found in a jungle. Changed purpose from spawning with full health and mana to a 6% reduction in mana usage. No longer appears within chests in Jungle Shrines. Can only be found growing on grass in the Underground Jungle.

A proposal to release genetically engineered (GE) moths in an area of upstate New York has been approved by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). The trial is meant to test the efficacy of the GE moths in reducing the local diamondback moth population. Diamondback moths are considered to be an invasive pest because they destroy vegetables like cabbage, cauliflower and broccoli when they’re at the caterpillar stage of their life cycle. The genetically-engineered moths are designed to die before adulthood. After male moths are released into a test site, their gene is passed on to offspring through mating. The gene causes female moths to die at the caterpillar stage to stop the reproductive cycle. Scientists have also given the GE moths a fluorescent protein marker so they can be traced. The field trial is to be led by a team of researchers from Cornell University who plan to release the moths in a 10-acre field in Geneva, New York, owned by the university. The federal permit allows 30,000 moths to be released per week over a period of three to four months. According to the U.K. company that produces the GE moths, Oxitec, the GE moths are an alternative to the use of insecticides to control pests which also often eradicate other more desirable insects integral to the ecosystem, like bees and other pollinators. The same company has submitted — and withdrawn — applications for field trials of GE insects in Spain and elsewhere to battle the olive fruit fly. However, the Washington-based Center for Food Safety said that genetically engineered insects are a threat to “native ecosystems and human health” with the potential to create new problems like harm to other species that rely on them for food. A group of New York organic farmers is also opposed to the experiment and is calling for a full environmental review. According to the Northeast Organic Farming Association of New York (NOFA-NY), the USDA’s environmental assessment has not sufficiently addressed the potential health and environmental effects. NOFA-NY’s policy advisor, Liana Hoodes, told EcoWatch that it was now up to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) to require an environmental impact assessment. NOFA-NY also pointed out that Oxitec had not completed a thorough health, safety and environmental review before exporting its GE moths. In 2016, approval was granted for the release in Florida of GE mosquitoes, also produced by Oxitec, to test their effectiveness in eradicating the Aedes aegypti mosquito, responsible for transmitting viruses like Zika, dengue fever and chikungunya. This proposed trial has been delayed following opposition from local residents. However, the company has been successful in releasing GE mosquitoes in Brazil, the Cayman Islands and Panama with reports of a subsequent decline in the Aedes aegypti mosquito population.
