In some cases, it is cairit oot on individuals as a prevenative surgery for sic problems. A speicial case is that o congenital amputation, a congenital disorder, whaur fetal limms hae been cut aff bi constrictive bands. In some kintras, amputation o the haunds, feet or ither bouk pairts is or wis uised as a form o puinishment for fowk wha committed crimes. Amputation haes awso been uised as a tactic in war an acts o terrorism; it can awso occur as a war injur.

Amputation
Whan duin bi a person, the person follaein oot the amputation is an amputator. The amputatit person is cawed an amputee.
In the US, the majority o new amputations occur due tae complications o the vascular seestem (the bluid veshels), especially frae diabetes. Atween 1988 an 1996, thare war an average o 133,735 hospital discharges for amputation per year in the US. In 2005, just in the US, thare war 1.6 million amputees. In 2013, the US has 2.1 million amputees. Approximately 185,000 amputations occur in the United States each year. In 2009, hospital costs associated wi amputation totaled maire than $8.3 billion. Thare will be an estimated 3.6 million fowk in the US living wi limm loss bi 2050. African Americans are up tae fower times maire likely tae hae an amputation than European Americans.

Tractor vapourisin ile
Tractor vaporising oil (or TVO) is a fuel for petrol-paraffin ingines. In the United Kinrick an Australie, efter the Seicont Warld War, it wis commonly uised for tractors until diesel ingines became commonplace. In Australian Inglis it wis kent as power kerosene.

Tractor vapourisin ile
History
TVO existit for at least fifteen years afore it became widely uised. A 1920 publication mentions it as a product o Breetish Petroleum. But it wis nae until the late 1930s that it first became widely uised. The post war Ferguson TE20 tractor, a carefully researched an near-ideal tractor for uise on Breetish farms, wis designed aroond a petrol (gasoline) ingine, the Standard inline-fower. Awtho thare wis a campaign for the reintroduction o agricultural Road Duty (tax)-free petrol, which haed been curtailed during the war, this wis nae forthcoming. Perkins Engines supplied some conversions intae diesel ingines which coud uise untaxed reid diesel.
On the early Fordson model N, the tap which changed ower frae petrol tae TVO wis merked G for gasoline an K for kerosene, reflecting that thir tractors haed thair design origin in the USA. In the UK tractor vaporising oil wis uisually cried TVO.
Octane rating
As a substitute for petrol, TVO wis developed. Paraffin (kerosene) wis commonly uised as a domestic heating fuel an wis untaxed. Paraffin haes a law octane rating an wad damage an ingine biggit for petrol. The manufacture o paraffin involves the removal o aromatic hydrocarbons frae what is nou sauld as heating oil. Thir aromatics hae an octane rating, sae adding some o that otherwise waste product material back in a controlled manner intae paraffin gae TVO. The resultin octane rating o TVO wis somewhere atween 55 an 70.
The words paraffin an kerosene are eften uised interchangeably but the tables suggest that this is incorrect acause thay hae different octane ratings. Houiver, kerosene an heating oil hae seemilar octane ratings. Paraffin, kerosene an petrol (gasoline) are aw rather loosely defined. For ensaumple, gasoline mey hae an octane rating atween 95 an 102.
Vaporiser
In practice TVO haed maist o the properties o paraffin, includin the need for heating tae encourage vapourisation. As a result, the exhaust an inlet manifolds war adapted sae that mair heat frae the umwhile warmed the latter. Sic a setup wis cried a vaporiser. Tae get the tractor tae stairt frae cauld, a smaw seicont fuel tank wis added that contained petrol. The tractor wis stairtit on the expensive petrol, then – ance the ingine wis warm – the fuel supply switched ower tae TVO or paraffin. Sae lang as the ingine wis wirkin haurd, as when ploughing or pulling a load, the TVO wad burn well. Unner licht conditions, sic as travelling unloaded on the highway, the ingine wis better on petrol.
Máel Coluim o Moray
Máel Coluim o Moray (or Máel Coluim mac Máil Brigti) wis King or Mormaer o Moray (1020–1029), an, as his name suggests, the son o a Máel Brigte. As wi his predecessor Findláech mac Ruaidrí, soorces cry him "Keeng o Scotland."
Tractor vapourisin ile
Radiator blind
Some tractor designs included a radiator "blind" that wad restrict the flow o air ower the radiator which led tae the ingine running hetter, which coud help wi stairtin. If the radiator blind wis left shut, tho, thare wis a risk o ingine damage, especially in warm wather.

Terminology
The phrase petrol-paraffin ingine is eften uised tae describe an ingine that uses TVO. This can be interpreted aither as
Supply
TVO wis withdrawn frae sale bi UK suppliers in 1974 but haes been re-introduced bi at least ane supplier (Rye Oil Ltd). An approximation tae the correct specification can be made frae petrol an heating oil (burning oil). In the UK thare is an exception that permits the uise o rebated kerosene an fuel oils in vintage vehicles.

Notes
a. Theotokópoulos acquired the name "El Greco" in Italy, whaur the custom o identifyin a man bi designatin a kintra or ceety o origin wis a common practice. The curious form o the airticle (El) mey be frae the Venetian dialect or mair likely frae the Spaingie, tho in Spaingie his name would be "El Griego". The Cretan master wis generally kent in Italy an Spain as Dominico Greco, an wis cried anly efter his daith El Greco.
b. Accordin tae a contemporary, El Greco acquired his name, nae anly for his place o origin, but an aa for the sublimity o his airt: "Oot o the great esteem he was held in he wis cried the Greek (il Greco)" (comment o Giulio Cesare Mancini aboot El Greco in his Chronicles, which war written a few years efter El Greco's daith).

The toun gae its name tae the historic province an the Kinrick o Galicie–Volhynie, o which it wis the caipital till the early 14t hunderyear, when the seat o the local princes wis muivit tae Lviv.
In the past, the toun belangit tae several kintras. In 1349, thegether wi Red Ruthenie, it wis annexed bi Pols King Kazimierz Wielki. Efter his daith, it wis ruled bi the Kinrick o Hungary (1370-1387). For the next 400 years, it wis pairt o Poland’s Ruthenie Voivodship, but follaein the first pairteetion o Poland (1772) it became pairt o Austrian Galicie, in which it remained till late 1918.

Halych's population is estimatit at 6,406.
Name
The ceety's name, tho spelled identically in modren East Slavic leids (Галич), is pronooncit Halych in Ukrainian an Galich in Roushie. The Roushie transleeteration shoud no be ramfeeselt wi the Roushie toun o Galich. In Pols the name is rendered Halicz; in the Yiddish leid Helitsh or Heylitsh (העליטש); in Laitin, Galic; in Hungarian, Halics; in Romanie, Halici.
The oreegin o the Slavic toponym "Halych" is efter the Khwalis/Kaliz/Khalisioi who occupee'd the aurie frae the time o the Magyars. The Roushie toponym/ethnonym Khvalis (Хвалис) mey be relatit an aw. Historians umwhile believit it wis Celtic, relatit tae mony seemilar place names foond athort Europe sic as "Galaţi" (Romanie), "Galatie" (Turkey), "Gaul" (Fraunce) an "Galicie" (Spain). Anither version postulates "hals", "salt", at the ruit o "Halych", as the salt tred wis a substantial economic factor in the medieval history o Halych. Max Vasmer an modren Slavists generally agree that "Halych" is an adjective derived frae the East Slavic wurd for "jackdaw," "halka." This bird featurt in the toun's coat o airms (but no in the Árpád coat o airms, when Corvinus is a raven) when it wis pairt o the Austro-Hungarian Empire (syne 1772).
Local fowk legend wad hae it that the name "Halych" comes frae a legendar "Prince Halychyna," the first ruler o thir land. In fact, a kurgan referred tae bi locals as "Halychyna's tomb," excavatit in 1996, conteened a ritual cremation steid an a bronze wappen an gowd disc that coud hae belangit tae a noble leader.

Halych
Auld Halych
Interestingly, local offeecials attribute the first written mention o Halych tae the year 896. The opinion is supportit bi a record foond in the Gesta Hungarorum, which are court chronicles o the Hungarian king Béla III frae the beginnin o the 13t hunderyear. The chronicles describe a stay o Hungarian tribes led bi Prince Álmos in Halych on thair wey throu Slavic laund tae Pannonie. The claim is no supportit bi serious scholars. Similarly, anither curious date for the first written mention, 290 AD (wi a reference tae "Getica" bi Goth Jordanes) is no acceptit bi majority.
The first dynasty o Halych, stryndin frae Vladimir o Novgorod, culminatit in Yaroslav Osmomysl (1153–1187) -- efter whose rule Béla III o Hungary briefly conquered the Principality in 1188—afore goin extinct in 1199.
