A burn is an injury to a person's skin or even flesh.
Heat, cold, electricity, chemicals, friction, or radiation can be the cause of a burn.
Most burns are due to heat from hot liquids, solids, or fire.
While rates are similar for males and females the underlying causes often differ.
Among women in some areas, risk is related to use of open cooking fires or unsafe stoves.
Among men, risk is related to the work environments.
Alcoholism and smoking are other risk factors.
Burns can also occur as a result of self harm or violence between people.
Burns can be very serious injuries, and in some cases can even cause death.
Depending on how deep the burn goes and amount of skin affected, a burn can be a medical emergency.
For children, at least five percent of the skin needs to be affected.
Adults can tolerate up to ten percent of affected skin.
In the United States, almost eight out of ten burns resulted from fire, flames, or hot liquids.
Most (69%) burn injuries occur at home or at work (9%), and most are accidental, with 2% due to assault by another, and 1–2% resulting from a suicide attempt.
These sources can cause inhalation injury to the airway and/or lungs, occurring in about 6%.
Burns are usually minor.
They are usually Degree One to a minor Degree Two.
Others are more powerful, such as Degree 3.
People may get more powerful burns from high heat or radioactive items.
1st Degree Burns
Degree One burns are minor and can be cured at home.
They seldom leave scars.
A person can get them from hot water, a minor sunburn, or by touching hot metal.
It causes pain, but only the top layer of skin is burnt and no nerves are injured.
2nd Degree  Burns
Degree Two burns can be cured at home, but some people would prefer to take them to the hospital.
This degree of burn goes into the second layer of skin.
3rd Degree  Burns
Degree Three burns are the most severe burns that most people can survive from.
Although they may be severe, the chances of death are low if treated at the hospital right away.
It burns through all three layers of skin, leaving a scab.
4th Degree  Burns
This degree of burn goes through the skin and destroys the nerves near it.
There is no pain at the location of the 4th degree burn area, due to the destruction of the nerves, but there can be immense pain that occurs in the area surrounding the burn.
Very few survive it.
It must be treated at the hospital ASAP if it occurs and the person is still alive.
Cave paintings from more than 3,500 years ago document burns and their management.
The earliest Egyptian records on treating burns describes dressings prepared with milk from mothers of baby boys.
The 1500 BCE Edwin Smith Papyrus describes treatments using honey and the salve of resin.
Many other treatments have been used over the ages, including the use of tea leaves by the Chinese documented to 600 BCE, pig fat and vinegar by Hippocrates documented to 400 BCE, and wine and myrrh by Celsus documented to 100 CE.
French barber-surgeon Ambroise Paré was the first to describe different degrees of burns in the 1500s.
Guillaume Dupuytren expanded these degrees into six different severities in 1832.
The first hospital to treat burns opened in 1843 in London, England and the development of modern burn care began in the late 1800s and early 1900s.
During World War I, Henry D. Dakin and Alexis Carrel developed standards for the cleaning and disinfecting of burns and wounds using sodium hypochlorite solutions, which significantly reduced mortality.
In the 1940s, the importance of early excision and skin grafting was acknowledged, and around the same time, fluid resuscitation and formulas to guide it were developed.
In the 1970s, researchers demonstrated the significance of the hypermetabolic state that follows large burns.

Francisco I. Madero (October 30, 1873 - February 22, 1913) was a reformist politician and writer.
He was President of Mexico from 1911 to 1913 and never held any other political office.
He helped engineer the overthrow of entrenched dictator Porfirio Díaz by starting the Mexican Revolution.
Unfortunately for Madero, he found himself caught between the remnants of Díaz' power structure (who hated him for overthrowing the old regime) and the revolutionary forces he unleashed (who despised him for not being radical enough).
He was deposed and executed in 1913 by Victoriano Huerta, a general who had served under Díaz.
Alvaro Obregón Salido (February 19, 1880 - July 17, 1928) was a Mexican farmer, warlord and general.
He was one of the key players in the Mexican Revolution (1910-1920) and it is his election as President in 1920 that is considered by many as the ending point of the Revolution, although the violence continued afterwards.
A brilliant and charismatic general, his rise to power is contributed to his effectiveness, ruthlessness, and the fact that he was the only one of the Revolution's “Big Four” still standing after 1923, as Pancho Villa, Emiliano Zapata and Venustiano Carranza all were assassinated.
Sexual reassignment surgery (SRS) is also called gender reassignment surgery,  sex reassignment surgery or a sex change.
SRS is one or more surgeries that are done to change the body's genitals or other sexual characteristrics.
Transgender people may get SRS to make their body match their gender identity.
Phallectomy (removing the penis)
Orchiectomy (removing the testicles)
Vaginoplasty (where a surgeon creates a vagina)
Breast implants
Voice therapy
Mastectomy (removing the breasts)
Hysterectomy (removing the uterus)
Phalloplasty (where a surgeon creates a penis; however, this surgery is more difficult and dangerous than vaginoplasty for transgender women)
Transgender people may get one of these surgeries, a combination, or no surgeries at all.
Some international laws on human rights cover SRS.
For example, the Declaration of Montreal and the Yogyakarta Principles say that transgender people must be allowed SRS.
These laws say that if health insurance companies did not cover SRS, they would be discriminating against transgender people.

A milk substitute is a product that looks and tastes like milk.
The mammary glands of mammals produce milk.
In milk substitutes many of the ingredients of milk are replaced: A milk substitute may contain fat and proteins obtained from plants.
People with a lactose intolerance or a milk allergy often replace milk by a substitute.
The two most common categories of milk substitutes are grain milk and plant milk.
The most common grain milk is oat milk, while the most common plant milk is soy milk.
Other examples include coconut milk, almond milk, and peanut milk.
The Staffordshire Bull Terrier, sometimes nicknamed as a Staff, is an English dog breed.
It is  a medium-sized dog- Originally, it was bred for dog fighting.
It is related to the Bull Terrier.

It grows to a wrist height of 12-17cm and a weight of about 11-17 kg.
In Great Britain, the dog is often kept as a "family dog".
Staffordshire Bull Terriers have also been trained as search and rescue dogs.
In other countries, such as Germany, this dog breed is seen as problematic; these countries may have put restrictions in place regarding the breeding and keeping such dogs.
The people keeping such dogs may need to undergo tests to determine whether they are allowed to keep them.
Most people think that this type of dog is very dangerous, but they are not.
They are known to be called the 'Nanny Dog' and are great with babies and small children.

An unconformity is a gap in the sequence of rocks in a geologic column.
It is a buried erosion surface separating two rock strata of different ages.
It shows that sediment deposition was broken for a time, usually because the land was above sea level at that time.
Usually, the older layer was exposed to erosion for some time before deposition of the younger.
However, the term is used to describe any break in the sedimentary record.
The rocks above an unconformity are younger than the rocks beneath (unless the sequence has been overturned).
An unconformity represents time during which no sediments were preserved in the region.
The local record for that time interval is missing and geologists must use other clues to discover that part of the geologic history of that area.
The interval of geologic time not represented is called a hiatus (= 'gap').

Harold "Mum" Mummery (August 25, 1889 - December 9, 1945) - was a professional ice hockey defenceman, shooting  left.
He was born in Chicago, IL, and died in Brandon, MB.
Mummery played professionally from 1911 until 1923, including six seasons in the National Hockey League for the Toronto Blueshirts, Toronto Arenas, Quebec Bulldogs, Montreal Canadiens and Hamilton Tigers.
He was a two-time winner of the Stanley Cup hockey championship.
At the time of his career, Mummery was the largest player ever in the NHA and NHL, playing at 245 pounds in his NHL years and he was known to eat two steaks before hockey games.
Mummery appeared in three games as an NHL goaltender in an era when teams did not dress a backup netminder, making him the skater to have played the most games in net.
He suited up as a goaltender twice with Quebec and once with Hamilton.
Born in Chicago, Illinois, Mummery moved at an early age to Brandon, Manitoba.
He first played senior-level hockey for Brandon YMCA in 1907–08.
He moved to Fort William, Ontario to play a season with the Fort William Forts on the Northern Ontario League.
He returned to the prairies playing for Brandon and Moose Jaw in minor professional leagues.
In 1912, he joined the Quebec Bulldogs, then in the National Hockey Association (NHA).
In his rookie season, the Bulldogs, the defending champions, won the NHA and Stanley Cup championships.
He played with the Bulldogs until 1916, when he joined the Montreal Canadiens for a season.
The Canadiens won the NHA title but lost to the Seattle Metropolitans in the Stanley Cup championship.
Before the beginning of the 1917–18 season, the NHA was suspended and the owners formed the National Hockey League (NHL).
The Quebec team did not field a team that year and he was loaned to the Toronto Blueshirts club, now run by the Toronto Arena Company.
The club would go on to win the Stanley Cup in a series against Vancouver.
After the season the Arena company formed the Toronto Arena Hockey Club and Mummery signed for the 1918–19 season.
Unfortunately, the season was a disaster as the club had poor results, weak attendance and it folded, prematurely ending the season.
In 1919–20, a Quebec team was formed in the NHL, and the NHL assigned former Bulldogs players from the NHA to the team.
Mummery was one of those players.
When the Quebec team was moved to Hamilton, he was traded before the season to the Canadiens, where he played for the 1920–21 season.
He was traded to Hamilton for the 1921-22 season and traded from Hamilton to Saskatoon of the West Coast Hockey League in 1922.
He played four games for Saskatoon in 1922–23 and retired.

Harry Mummery's biography  at Manitoba Hockey Hall of Fame
Walter Mummery (born September 10, 1893, date of death unknown) was a professional ice hockey player.
He played for the Quebec Bulldogs from 1914 until 1917.
His brother Harry also played professional hockey.
Born in Chicago, Illinois, United States, the Mummery family moved to Brandon, Manitoba.
In 1913, Walter joined the Brandon Wheat Cities of the Manitoba Hockey League.
The next season, 1914–15, Walter joined the Quebec Bulldogs of the National Hockey Association (NHA), where he played until the end of the 1916–17 NHA season.
The following year, the Quebec club did not operate in the new National Hockey League (NHL) and Mummery was assigned to the Montreal Canadiens.
Mummery was loaned to the Montreal Wanderers in December 1917, but did not play a game for the Wanderers either.
Before Mummery played a game, the Wanderers arena burned down.
Mummery did not play pro hockey until 1919–20, when he joined Edmonton of the Big 4 League for one season.
By then, Quebec was operating in the NHL and his rights were assigned to Quebec but he did not return.
Hutton studied in medicine, but never practised it.
Instead, he did scientific research, helped to start a chemical industry, and farmed his estate.
He is one of the founders of modern geology.
He saw the Earth as the product of natural forces.
What could be seen happening today, over long periods of time, could produce what we see in the rocks.
His book on the Theory of the Earth set out theories of geology and geologic time.
These ideas supported the theories of plutonism and uniformitarianism.
Theory of rock formations
Hutton hit on a variety of ideas to explain the rock strata he saw around him.
According to Playfair he "was in no haste to publish his theory; for he was one of those who are much more delighted with the contemplation of truth, than with the praise of having discovered it”.
After some 25 years of work, his Theory of the Earth was read to meetings of the Royal Society of Edinburgh in 1785.
Hutton later read an abstract of his Concerning the system of the Earth, its duration and stability on 4 July 1785, which he had printed and circulated privately.
In it, he outlined his theory as follows;
"The solid parts of the present land appear in general, to have been composed of the productions of the sea, and of other materials similar to those now found upon the shores.
Hence we find reason to conclude:1st, That the land on which we rest is not simple and original, but that it is a composition, and had been formed by the operation of second causes.2nd, That before the present land was made, there had subsisted a world composed of sea and land, in which were tides and currents, with such operations at the bottom of the sea as now take place.
And,Lastly, That while the present land was forming at the bottom of the ocean, the former land maintained plants and animals; at least the sea was than inhabited by animals, in a similar manner as it is at present.
Hence we are led to conclude, that the greater part of our land, if not the whole had been produced by operations natural to this globe; but that in order to make this land a permanent body, resisting the operations of the waters, two things had been required;1st, The consolidation of masses formed by collections of loose or incoherent materials;2ndly, The elevation of those consolidated masses from the bottom of the sea, the place where they were collected, to the stations in which they now remain above the level of the ocean".
Anticipation of natural selection
In Hutton's less well-known work is a remarkable anticipation of the idea of natural selection.
As always with Hutton, the idea is almost hidden in the complex language:
"...if an organised body is not in the situation and circumstances best adapted to its sustenance and propagation, then, in conceiving an indefinite variety among the individuals of that species, we must be assured, that, on the one hand, those which depart most from the best adapted constitution, will be the most liable to perish, while, on the other hand, those organised bodies, which most approach to the best constitution for the present circumstances, will be best adapted to continue, in preserving themselves and multiplying the individuals of their race".–
Investigation of the Principles of Knowledge, volume 2.
The same "principle of variation" would influence "every species of plant, whether growing in a forest or a meadow".
He came to his ideas as the result of experiments in plant and animal breeding, some of which he outlined in an unpublished manuscript, the Elements of Agriculture.
He distinguished between heritable variation as the result of breeding, and non-heritable variations caused by environmental differences such as soil and climate.
Progress of his ideas
Hutton's prose hindered his theories.
John Playfair in 1802 restated of Huttton's geological ideas (though not his thoughts on evolution).
Charles Lyell in the 1830s popularised the idea of an infinitely repeating cycle (of the erosion of rocks and the building up of sediment).
Lyell believed in gradual change, and thought even Hutton gave too much credit to catastrophic changes.
Lyell's books had widepread influence, not least on the up and coming young geologist Charles Darwin who read them with enthusiasm during his voyage on the Beagle.
William Whewell coined the term uniformitarianism to describe Lyell's version of the ideas.
This was in contrast with catastrophism, the idea that the rocks recorded a series of catastrophes followed by repopulation by a new range of species.
Over time there was a convergence between these views, but Lyell's description of the development of geological ideas led to a belief that uniformitarianism had triumphed.

Street art is a kind of visual art in a public place.
It can include styles like impressionism, cubism or pop art.
A lot of poor people try to survive by asking a little money in the street.
They sometimes do the same while making art.
These are the "original", "true" street artists.
They make music, theatre, temporary paintings on the ground.
The other ones are more likely called "urban artist".
Street art of New York
A spray can is a artistic tool used by writers on the walls in cities like Philadelphia or New York in 1970.
This technique is still used but remain considered more or less as vandalism.
One of the most important New York writer wrote SEEN on subways in New York.
Street art of Paris
The artist Banksy said in December 2010 in a French newspaper called Le Monde (The world) that he has been influenced by the street art of Paris.
For him it is the May 1968 mini revolution that started the street art movement.
He also mentioned stencil artist Blek le Rat.
Land art
Land art is an art movement in which the landscape and the work of art are linked.
It is also an art form that is created in nature, using natural materials.
Christo and Jeanne-Claude were a couple who made illegal art in the street of Paris in 1962 to protest against the Berlin Wall.
In 1972, and 1976 they made land art in the desert of California, building a very long fence.
In 1985, they made a huge work in Paris.
They wrapped the oldest bridge of the city with polyamide fabric.
They had to negotiate for years to have the permission of doing it.
So it was official but it was controversial.
Absurd propaganda
After the Berlin wall collapsed, a man called Shepard Fairey started gluing images of a dead French wrestler called André the Giant in California.
It was a phenomenon.
Fairey opened a web site were he just said it was phenomenology.
It was so absurd people could not stop talking about it.
Stickers were made of the image of the dead wrestler.
It was considered "cool" by some skateboarders.
In 1999, in Seattle, took place a WTO (World Trade Organisation) summit.
There took place big demonstrations.
Others summits took place in Prague (2000) and in Genoa (July 2001).
The youth that demonstrate during this summit used "Absurd Propaganda", "culture jamming" and other artistic techniques to "reclaim the streets".
After the president Georges W. Bush was elected and the 9/11 (September 2001), the absurd propaganda seemed to have a political meaning.
So, critics came to the idea to call that phenomenon artivism.
Something part art and part activism.
The art of invading space
In 1999, an artist called Space Invader (who took his name from a video game) started putting little mosaic work in Paris.
He started by doing it in a museum called the Louvre.
French television showed it.
Then he started doing it in every city he could.
So he met other artists in other cities.
Because his work is not ephemeral but very discreet, the authorities let him do.
Only in Amsterdam, the city council decided to officially remove them.
In the same time he opened a web site so people from around the world could relay and participate.
He invited Shepard Fairey in Paris in march 2003.
Malcolm McLaren who invented punk was there to.
Erosion is a process where natural forces like water, wind, ice, and gravity transport rocks and soil.
It is a geological process, and part of the rock cycle.
Erosion occurs at the Earth's surface, and has no effect on the Earth's mantle and core.
Most of the energy that makes erosion happen is provided by the Sun.
The Sun's energy causes the movement of water and ice in the water cycle and the movement of air to create wind.
Erosion can cause problems that affect humans.
Soil erosion, for example, can create problems for farmers.
Soil erosion can remove soil, leaving a thin layer or rocky soil behind.
Erosion can also cause problems for humans by removing rocks or soil that support buildings.
Erosion by water
Temperature changes cause pieces of rock to flake away from the surface.
Also, the acid in rainwater dissolves rocks containing calcium carbonate.
These processes are called weathering.
Water erosion happens when water moves the pieces of rock or soil downhill.
Waves also carry away small pieces of material.
A wave can wash up onto the surface of rock or soil and then carry away pieces of material as it flows back into the ocean or lake.
The size of earth materials that can be moved by water depends on how fast the water is moving.
A fast-flowing stream can carry large rocks while a slow-moving stream might only be able to carry very small things like clay.
Canyons are among the most obvious features made by erosion.
Where a river meets the sea, it drops the solids, sometimes making a river delta.
Tropical rivers
Large tropical rivers like the Paraná, Indus, Brahmaputra, Ganges, Zambezi, Mississippi and the Amazon carry huge amounts of sediment down to the sea.
The Nile, perhaps the world's longest river, carries much less sediment than the others because, part of the way, it runs through less fertile regions than the other great rivers.
The Amazon has by far the largest waterflow, with an average discharge greater than the next seven largest rivers combined.
It has the largest drainage basin in the world, about .
The Amazon accounts for about one-fifth of the world's total river flow.
When a glacier moves downhill,it pushes & pulls rocks with it.
There is also another way.
Cold weather causes water inside tiny cracks in rocks to freeze.
When it freezes, the ice gets larger,& pushes hard against the rock to break it.
Erosion by wind
Wind erosion occurs when wind moves pieces of earth materials.
Wind erosion is one of the weakest kinds of erosion.
Small pieces of earth material can be rolled along the ground surface by wind.
Very small pieces can be picked up and carried by the wind.
Sometimes, wind can carry small pieces of earth materials over large distances.
Some sediment from the Sahara Desert is carried across the Atlantic Ocean by wind.
Erosion by gravity
Gravity erosion is the simplest kind of erosion.
Gravity simply pulls loose earth materials downhill.
Landslides are dramatic examples of gravity erosion.
Erosion and tectonics
Tectonic effects on erosion has long been recognized.
For example, rivers form as a result of tectonic uplift (as Himalayas and Tibetan Plateau).
All of the Earth's mountain ranges were created by the upward movement of the land by changes beneath the Earth's surface.
When the ground rises the whole weather system can also be changed including local sea levels, wind strength and direction, rainfall and more.
The Earth's landscape is a product of two factors.
Tectonics builds up height by surface and rock uplift, and climate controls the erosion.
Erosion wears away upland areas over time.
The interaction of these processes can form, modify, or destroy features of the Earth’s surface.
