Appendix (anatomy) 
 In human anatomy, the appendix (or vermiform appendix; also cecal [or caecal] appendix; vermix; or vermiform process) is a blind ended tube connected to the cecum (or caecum).
Appendix (anatomy) 
 The appendix has no apparent function in humans, but it can get inflamed and cause diseases (like appendicitis).
Appendix (anatomy) 
 It is assumed the appendix may act as a storage for beneficial ("good") gut bacteria which aid us on digesting difficult food and fighting germs.
Appendix (anatomy) 
 The cecum of the koala is attached to the juncture of the small and large intestines as it is in humans, but is very long.
Appendix (anatomy) 
 As man began to eat foods easier to digest, they became less reliant on cellulose-rich plants for energy.
Appendix (anatomy) 
 Recent work shows the appendix is a safe place for useful bacteria when illness flushes those bacteria from the rest of the intestines.
Appendix (anatomy) 
 This proposal is based on a new understanding of how the immune system supports the growth of beneficial gut flora, in combination with many well-known features of the appendix, including its architecture, its location just below the normal one-way flow of food and germs in the large intestine, and its association with copious amounts of immune tissue.
Appendix (anatomy) 
 Research performed at Winthrop University-Hospital showed that individuals without an appendix were four times more likely to have a recurrence of Clostridium difficile colitis.
Appendix (anatomy) 
 This reservoir of gut flora could then serve to repopulate the digestive system following a bout of dysentery or cholera.

Candiru 
 Candiru (candirú) (Spanish, also known as canero or toothpick fish) are parasitic freshwater catfish and a member of the Trichomycteridae family.
Candiru 
 They can be found in the Amazon River and to the people who live there, they are the most feared fish in its waters, even over the piranha.
Candiru 
 The area that has the most of these fish is at the section between the Amazon River and the Rio Negro, near Brazil's inland city of Manaus.
Candiru 
 Their ability to find breath currents in the water allows them to swim into the gill openings of other aquatic species, where they feed on their prey's blood.
Candiru 
 While the fish in the subfamily Vandelliinae feed on blood, fish in Stegophilinae may feed on scales, mucus, or carrion.
Candiru 
 To hunt for its prey, the Candirú lies at the bottom of the river testing and sniffing the water for certain chemicals, such as urea and ammonia from the gills of other fish.
Candiru 
 Once they have found a fish nearby they rush with a burst of speed to the gill cavity and attaches itself with its spines.
Candiru 
 Then, it begins to gnaw a hole towards a major blood vessel and stuffs itself for no more than a few minutes, which usually causes the victim to die.
Candiru 
 It will then release itself and sink back to the river bed in order to digest its food and wait for its next meal.
Candiru 
 Even with reports as old as the 1800s, the first written case of the removal of a candiru from a person did not occur until 1997, and even that incident is not believed by everyone.

Slide rule 
 The slide rule is used mainly for multiplication and division, and also for "scientific" functions such as roots, logarithms and trigonometry, but usually not for addition or subtraction.
Slide rule 
 The slide rule is based on the work on logarithms by John Napier and was invented by William Oughtred.
Slide rule 
 Before electronic calculators were developed, slide rules were the tool used most often in  science and engineering.
Slide rule 
 The use of slide rules continued to grow through the 1950s and 1960s even as digital computing devices were  gradually introduced; but around 1974 the pocket calculator made the slide rule largely obsolete and most suppliers left the business.
Slide rule 
 In its most basic form, the slide rule uses two logarithmic scales to allow rapid multiplication and division of numbers.
Slide rule 
 More complex slide rules allow other calculations, such as square roots, exponentials, logarithms, and trigonometric functions.
Slide rule 
 Mathematical calculations are done by aligning a mark on the sliding central strip with one on one of the fixed strips.
Slide rule 
 Numbers aligned with the marks give the approximate value of the product, quotient, or other calculated result.
Slide rule 
 Addition and subtraction steps in a calculation are generally done mentally or on paper, not on the slide rule.
Slide rule 
 The strips are aligned in parallel and interlocked so that the central strip can be moved lengthwise relative to the other two.
Slide rule 
 Some slide rules ("duplex" models) have scales on both sides of the rule and slide strip, others on one side of the outer strips and both sides of the slide strip, still others on one side only ("simplex" rules).
Slide rule 
 A sliding cursor with a vertical alignment line is used to find corresponding points on scales that are not next to each other or, in duplex models, are on the other side of the rule.
Slide rule 
 A logarithm transforms the operations of multiplication and division to addition and subtraction according to the rules  and .
Slide rule 
 Moving the top scale to the right by a distance of , by matching the beginning of the top scale with the label  on the bottom, aligns each number , at position  on the top scale, with the number at position  on the bottom scale.
Slide rule 
 In general, the 1 on the top is moved to a factor on the bottom, and the answer is read off the bottom where the other factor is on the top.
Slide rule 
 Operations may go "off the scale;" for example, the diagram above shows that the slide rule has not positioned the 7 on the upper scale above any number on the lower scale, so it does not give any answer for 2×7.
Slide rule 
 In such cases, the user may slide the upper scale to the left until its right index aligns with the 2, effectively multiplying by 0.2 instead of by 2, as in the illustration below:
Slide rule 
 Here the user of the slide rule must remember to adjust the decimal point appropriately to correct the final answer.
Slide rule 
 Resetting the slide is not the only way to handle multiplications that would result in off-scale results, such as 2×7; some other methods are:
Slide rule 
 In this example, set the left 1 of C opposite the 2 of D. Move the cursor to 7 on CF, and read the result from DF.
Slide rule 
 Position the 7 on the CI scale above the 2 on the D scale, and then read the result off of the D scale, below the 1 on the CI scale.
Slide rule 
 There is more than one method for doing division, but the method presented here has the advantage that the final result cannot be off-scale, because one has a choice of using the 1 at either end.
Slide rule 
 In addition to the logarithmic scales, some slide rules have other mathematical functions encoded on other auxiliary scales.
Slide rule 
 The most popular were trigonometric, usually sine and tangent, common logarithm (log10) (for taking the log of a value on a multiplier scale), natural logarithm (ln) and exponential (ex) scales.
Slide rule 
 Some rules include a Pythagorean scale, to figure sides of triangles, and a scale to figure circles.
Slide rule 
 On linear rules, the scales and their labeling are highly standardized, with variation usually occurring only in terms of which scales are included and in what order:
Slide rule 
 The Binary Slide Rule manufactured by Gilson in 1931 performed an addition and subtraction function limited to fractions.
Slide rule 
 Inverting this process allows square roots to be found, and similarly for the powers 3, 1/3, 2/3, and 3/2.
Slide rule 
 For instance, there are two nines on the A scale; to find the square root of nine, use the first one; the second one gives the square root of 90.
Slide rule 
 The S, T, and ST scales are used for trigonometric functions and multiples of trig functions, for angles in degrees.
Slide rule 
 The original intent was to allow the user to select an exponent x (in the range 0 to 2.3) on the Ln scale and read ex on the C (or D) scale and e–x on the CI (or DI) scale.
Slide rule 
 Later, the inventor created a set of "marks" on the Ln scale to extend the range beyond the 2.3 limit, but Pickett never incorporated these marks on any of its slide rules.
Slide rule 
 Slide rules are not typically used for addition and subtraction, but it is nevertheless possible to do so using two different techniques.
Slide rule 
 The first method to perform addition and subtraction on the C and D (or any comparable scales) requires converting the problem into one of division.
Slide rule 
 For subtraction, the quotient of the two variables minus one times the divisor equals their difference:
Slide rule 
 This method is similar to the addition/subtraction technique used for high-speed electronic circuits with the logarithmic number system in specialized computer applications like the Gravity Pipe (GRAPE) supercomputer and hidden Markov models.
Slide rule 
 Addition and subtraction are performed by sliding the cursor left (for subtraction) or right (for addition) then returning the slide to 0 to read the result.
Slide rule 
 Scales on the most common "10-inch" models are actually 25 cm in length, as they were made to metric standards, though some rules offer slightly extended scales to simplify manipulation when a result overflowed.
Slide rule 
 Typically the divisions mark a scale to a precision of two significant figures, and the user estimates the third figure.
Slide rule 
 Such cursors can effectively double the accuracy of readings, permitting a 10-inch slide rule to serve as well as a 20-inch.
Slide rule 
 Trigonometric scales are sometimes dual-labeled, in black and red, with complementary angles, the so-called "Darmstadt" style.
Slide rule 
 These often had common calculations directly expressed as special scales, for example loan calculations, optimal purchase quantities, or particular engineering equations.
Slide rule 
 For example, the Fisher Controls company distributed a customized slide rule adapted to solving the equations used for selecting the proper size of industrial flow control valves.
Slide rule 
 Circular slide rules come in two basic types, one with two cursors (left), and another with a movable disk and a single cursor (right).
Slide rule 
 The dual cursor versions perform multiplication and division by maintaining a fixed angle between the cursors as they are rotated around the dial.
Slide rule 
 The single cursor version operates more like the standard slide rule through the appropriate alignment of the scales.
Slide rule 
 The basic advantage of a circular slide rule is that the longest dimension of the tool was reduced by a factor of about 3 (i.e. by π).
Slide rule 
 For example, the outer scale of a 10 cm circular would have a maximum precision equal to a 30 cm ordinary slide rule.
Slide rule 
 Circular slide rules also eliminate "off-scale" calculations, because the scales were designed to "wrap around"; they never have to be re-oriented when results are near 1.0—the rule is always on scale.
Slide rule 
 However, for non-cyclical non-spiral scales such as S, T, and LL's, the scale length is shortened to make room for end margins.
Slide rule 
 Circular slide rules are mechanically more rugged and smoother-moving, but their scale alignment precision is sensitive to the centering of a central pivot; a minute 0.1 mm off-centre of the pivot can result in a 0.2 mm worst case alignment error.
Slide rule 
 Rather than "split" scales, high-end circular rules use spiral scales for more complex operations like log-of-log scales.
Slide rule 
 The main disadvantages of circular slide rules are the difficulty in locating figures along a rotating disc, and limited number of scales.
Slide rule 
 Another drawback of circular slide rules is that less-important scales are closer to the center, and have lower precisions.
Slide rule 
 One slide rule remaining in daily use around the world is the E6B. This is a circular slide rule first created in the 1930s for aircraft pilots to help with dead reckoning.
Slide rule 
 With the aid of scales printed on the frame it also helps with such miscellaneous tasks as converting time, distance, speed, and temperature values, compass errors, and calculating fuel use.
Slide rule 
 While GPS has reduced the use of dead reckoning for aerial navigation, and handheld calculators have taken over many of its functions, the E6B remains widely used as a primary or backup device and the majority of flight schools demand that their students have some degree of its mastery.
Slide rule 
 In 1952, Swiss watch company Breitling introduced a pilot's wristwatch with an integrated circular slide rule specialized for flight calculations: the Breitling Navitimer.
Slide rule 
 The Navitimer circular rule, referred to by Breitling as a "navigation computer", featured airspeed, rate/time of climb/descent, flight time, distance, and fuel consumption functions, as well as kilometer–nautical mile and gallon–liter fuel amount conversion functions.
Slide rule 
 Traditionally slide rules were made out of hard wood such as mahogany or boxwood with cursors of glass and metal.
Slide rule 
 In 1895, a Japanese firm, Hemmi, started to make slide rules from bamboo, which had the advantages of being dimensionally stable, strong and naturally self-lubricating.
Slide rule 
 These bamboo slide rules were introduced in Sweden in September, 1933 , and probably only a little earlier in Germany.
Slide rule 
 Nevertheless, Pickett, probably America's most successful slide rule company, made all printed scales.
Slide rule 
 Premium slide rules included clever catches so the rule would not fall apart by accident, and bumpers to protect the scales and cursor from rubbing on tabletops.
Slide rule 
 For painted slide rules, and the faint of heart, use diluted commercial window-cleaning fluid and a soft cloth.
Slide rule 
 The slide rule was invented around 1620–1630, shortly after John Napier's publication of the concept of the logarithm.
Slide rule 
 Edmund Gunter of Oxford developed a calculating device with a single logarithmic scale, which, with additional measuring tools, could be used to multiply and divide.
Slide rule 
 The first description of this scale was published in Paris in 1624 by Edmund Wingate (c. 1593 – 1656), an English mathematician, in a book entitled “L'usage de la reigle de proportion en l'arithmetique & geometrie”.
Slide rule 
 The book contains a double scale on one side of which is a logarithmic scale and on the other a tabular scale.
Slide rule 
 In 1630, William Oughtred of Cambridge invented a circular slide rule, and in 1632 he combined two Gunter rules, held together with the hands, to make a device that is recognizably the modern slide rule.
