how long can you survive without food quora? | A healthy human being can live approximately 45 to 65 days without food of any kind, so long as he or she keeps hydrated. You could survive without any severe symptoms [for] about 30 to 35 days, but after that you would probably experience skin rashes, diarrhea, and of course substantial weight loss. | gooaq |
[Build Help] For my specific purposes, FX-8350 vs. i5-4670k? | Hello BaPC.
Long-time lurker here, I'm choosing between the AMD FX-8350 and the Intel i5-4670k.
Here's what I'll be doing with the computer:
1. Play current and forthcoming games:
>Priority: GTA V / Bioshock Infinite / Leauge of Legends / Assassins Creed III / Crysis 3 / Skyrim (all on Ultra/High greater than 70 FPS)
>Maybe: Battlefield 3 / Call of Duty: Ghosts / DotA 2 / Teamfortress 2 / Tera Online / Guild Wars 2
>Not: Starcraft II / Racing games / WoW (I know they're sorta CPU intensive?)
2. Stream games on OBS or XSplit
3. Play GameCube/Wii games (SuperSmash Bros. Brawl/Mario Sunshine)
**Here's the main deal breaker for me:**
I found this deal at MemoryExpress.com.
Haswell will probably come out to be 370-420$ ish on release?
I'm wondering if I'll lose significant performance if I go the AMD route.
I'll be resusing 8GB Corsair RAM, an HD 7870, 550w Seasonic PSU and a Define R4 case. | reddit_title_body |

Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada | Established in 1932, the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) represents the interests of the Canadian mineral exploration and development industry. The association is best known for its annual convention and trade show in Toronto. The event regularly attracts up to 25,000 attendees from more than 130 countries.
Based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, PDAC has approximately 7,200 corporate and individual members served by 25 full-time staff.
PDAC Trade Show and Convention
The annual PDAC Convention—the world's premier mineral exploration and mining convention—is held at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre in downtown Toronto in early March. The show attracts exhibitors, investors, analysts, mining executives, geologists and government officials from across the Americas and the world, including two sitting Canadian Prime Ministers, Justin Trudeau (2020, 2019) and Stephen Harper (2014). The annual PDAC Convention has grown into a respected institution with an international reputation for networking, deal-making and discussing the current issues, trends and technologies shaping the industry.
Advocacy
PDAC advocates at federal, provincial and territorial levels to support a competitive and responsible Canadian mineral industry where companies are able to effectively explore for, discover and develop the mineral and metal deposits that our modern society depends on. These efforts are focused on ensuring that Canada's mineral exploration and development industry has the tools required to enhance its position as the global destination for mineral investment, remain a key employer in communities across the country, and provide the raw materials that power Canada's economy.
Advocacy work is undertaken on government policy issues of specific concern to the mineral exploration industry, including access to land, Indigenous affairs, international affairs, responsible exploration, finance and taxation, geosciences, and health and safety.
Membership
PDAC is a national organization with approximately 1,100 corporate members (including mining companies and mining industry service providers) and around 6,100 individual members (including prospectors, developers, geoscientists, consultants, mining executives, and students, as well as those involved in the drilling, financial, and legal aspects of exploration). Funding for PDAC is provided by annual membership dues and convention sponsorship.
PDAC Professional Liability and Business Insurance
In co-operation with third-party insurance providers, PDAC offers both professional and business insurance coverage to firms and individuals in the industry who are members of PDAC.

Concerning mathematics, an example of an impredicative definition is the smallest number in a set, which is formally defined as: if and only if for all elements of , is less than or equal to , and is in .

Origin of the resistivity anomalies of (EDT–TTF)[M(dmit)2](M = Ni, Pd) | α-(EDT–TTF)[Ni(dmit)2] comprises crossing columns of EDT–TTF and Ni(dmit)2 and exhibits unique metallic behaviour with a characteristic resistivity peak at around 14 K. The possibility of the development of the superstructure was examined down to 9 K by using a low-temperature imaging plate X-ray system, but no extra X-ray reflections could be found below 14 K. The 14 K anomaly is, therefore, thought not to originate from charge density wave (CDW) instability. New phases of γ-(EDT–TTF)[Pd(dmit)2] and γ-(EDT–TTF)[Ni(dmit)2] were found. γ-(EDT–TTF)[Pd(dmit)2] has parallel columns of EDT–TTF and Pd(dmit)2 and shows a resistivity anomaly around 80 K. Below 80 K, X-ray satellite reflections indicating CDW formation were observed. γ-(EDT–TTF)[Ni(dmit)2] undergoes a metal–insulator transition at around 100 K. | s2orc_title_abstract |

Fundamental interactions in RNA: Questions answered and remaining | Interpreting the tsunami of sequence information for RNA would be facilitated by an understanding of all the physical principles determining RNA structure.

It would, thus, also facilitate discovery of new principles relating structure to function.

Separation of erythropoietic stimulators in severe anaemia using high performance gel permeation chromatography | Lappin TRJ, Elder GE, Madden M, Bridges JM. Separation of erythropoietic stimulators in severe anaemia using high performance gel permeation chromatography. Scand J Clin Lab Invest 1985; 45: 753–758.Patients with various types of anaemia, but with comparable haemoglobin levels, show a wide range of serum erythropoietic activity. We have developed a method for the fractionation of serum by HPLC followed by bioassay of the individual fractions, using the mouse spleen cell microassay. Up to three distinct peaks of erythropoietic activity corresponding to molecular weights (MW)> 300,000, 250,000–300,000 and 40,000 have been found in serum from both normal and anaemic subjects. The erythropoietic profiles of the sera examined differ markedly in anaemias of different aetiology. The chemical nature and the physiological significance of the stimulators remain to be investigated. | s2orc_title_abstract |

Radical Islamic websites ring with praise of bin Laden .
"We won't cry today, but we will revenge," one poster wrote .
The terrorist leader's al Qaeda organization frequently used such sites to release messages . | (CNN) -- World leaders and jubilant Americans on Monday acclaimed the news of al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden's death in a raid by U.S. military forces on a compound in Pakistan. But the chatter on the radical websites that bin Laden's terrorist network used to speak to the world mourned his passing with an edge of defiance, celebrating him as a martyr and vowing al Qaeda will continue despite its leader's death. "Congratulations for dying as a martyr and a fighter in the sake of Allah," one poster wrote. "We won't cry today, but we will revenge. Men and women in America will cry." another post read, echoing warnings from Western leaders that the terrorist network will almost certainly move to avenge bin Laden's death. The sites, frequented by radical Islamists who subscribed to bin Laden's philosophies, have played a significant role in attracting and radicalizing potential terror recruits and the broader radical Islamist community and have been frequently used by al Qaeda and its affiliates to broadcast statements. Video and audio messages purported to be from bin Laden and Ayman al-Zawahiri, his second-in-command, have shown up for years on jihadist websites to exhort followers to keep the faith and continue their fight against the West. Many of the Web posters on Monday reacted to bin Laden's death by referring to him as a "shaheed," or martyr. One was headlined "The Lion of Jihad was killed in a fierce battle." Some mourned. "Teary eyes and sad hearts go out to you, the dearest and most noble of people." one poster wrote. Others celebrated bin Laden's death as a promotion of sorts. "May Allah increase your rank in Jannah o Sheikh Osama!" one poster wrote. Jannah can be translated as "paradise." "May Allah give you a place next to our beloved Prophet (saws), amen amen," wrote another. "Saws" is an abbreviation for the phrase meaning "peace be upon him." Not everyone could believe what they were hearing. "The news came down on my ears this morning like thunderbolt," one poster commented. Another simply hoped the reports were lies. Web messages attributed to bin Laden have touched on several issues. He urged Muslims to tackle famine and other problems plaguing parts of the Muslim world and made assorted threats against the West. The speaker made reference to a range of jihadi battlegrounds, such as Somalia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Israel and the Palestinian territories, . Messages had been posted as late as January 21, when an audiotape of a man purported to be bin Laden said the release of two French journalists abducted by militants hinged on France's military role in Afghanistan. "We repeat the same message to you," said the speaker in an audiotape played on the Al-Jazeera satellite news network. "The release of your prisoners from the hands of our brethren depends on the withdrawal of your soldiers from our countries." The speaker warned the French government that its alliance with the United States will prove costly. Taliban militants captured the journalists -- Herve Ghesquiere and Stephane Taponier from France 3 Television -- in December 2009 and threatened to kill them if France did not meet their demands, which included the release of some detainees held by France. It is believed the two remain in Taliban custody. Bin Laden also gave interviews and made statements and videos before the September 11, 2001, attacks. | cnn |

Hippy festivals and the free market | i have been going over this idea in a head for a while now, and i thought this would be a good place to get some feedback on the idea. Maybe I’ll do some sort of article or presentation on it in the future, but i want to at least make sure that im not overthinking this or there aren’t any major holes in my reasoning
this may sound really crazy but i think its interesting to look at this microcosmic examples of the discussions we have about the big picture
over the years i have been to a ton of different hippy festivals up and down the east coast promoting for much smaller shows that i host in clubs back home
one of the things that i have always found fascinating about the larger events was the underground economy, and no im not even talking about the black market aspects that may be stereotypically associated with that kind of thing :-P
it is very interesting, everyone is an entrepreneur in some way or another, people selling everything from clothing, to books and art, food, drink, cigarettes...one guy even ran out of gas one year and managed to find a gallon for sale rather easily (not from staff but from a party going entrepreneur)...and all this is just in the camping area, im not even kidding...there are even often small shows that go on inside the camp areas that run on donations
one thing that i think is also interesting, that i may be able to compare to the status quo
is that once you get inside of the actual concert area you immediately notice the effects of regulation
first off, you get searched going in, you aren’t allowed to sell anything inside unless your permitted to. then once inside you spend 6 bucks for the beer that was 50 cent outside, 10 bucks for the pack of smokes that was 5 outside, 30 for the t shirt that was 10 and so on, there’s obviously also a much weaker selection. I want to be clear also that im definitely not criticizing the promoters saying they are the state or anything, because I wish to someday be able to host those kinds of event myself…but I think it’s a great example of two test areas right next to eachother, one regulated the other unregulated, the effects on the price, selection, and quality of goods are obvious.
now obviously since this is a microcosm of our current civilization we are still dealing with government regulations on the property and revenue, and the test subject were all still brought up in public schools with abusive parents, so this isn’t heavily scientific or anything….this is just something that I get too thinking about when I end up at these things...does this make any sense? or am in outer space on this one? :-P | reddit_title_body |

Swester and Oberste – a breviary of an nuns convent from the Teutonic Order | The first part of the Breviary Huseby 25 was written in the 13th century, the second part in the second quarter of the 14th century. This breviary is one of the oldest liturgical manuscripts of the Teutonic Order. The liturgical rubrics of the Codex have survived in a Rhine-Franconian language, which makes Huseby 25 to one of the very few liturgical manuscripts of the Order in German. Substantive considerations indicates a production of this manuscript for a nunnery, which may be identified with the St. Catherine’s Monastery in Frankfurt. So Huseby 25 ist he only known manuscript of a nunnery from the Teutonic Order. | s2orc_title_abstract |

This is a cross-sectional study that was carried out from 1st September 2012 to 31st December 2012, at Ibri Polyclinic, Oman To assess the relationship between glycemic control (as reflected by glycated hemoglobin; HbA1c) and serum lipid profile in type 2 diabetic patients attending a primary care polyclinic, Oman, and included 123 type 2 diabetic patients (64 males and 59 females). The mean ±SD of age was 50.8 ± 11.5 years for males and 54.3 ± 10.1 years for females. During their regular visits to the clinic for clinical follow up, venous blood samples were collected from all subjects after at least 8 hours fasting. Blood specimens were collected into EDTA tubes for HbA1c and in Serum Separator Tube for fasting glucose (FSG) and lipid profile measurement. The data were evaluated by SPSS statistical package version 16. The results were analyzed using independent samples t-test (2-tailed), Pearson’s correlation. There were no significant differences in the mean values of the different parameters between males and females except the significantly lower mean HbA1c and higher mean HDL-C in females. This may reflect better adherence to diabetic management by females as well as the known higher HDL-C in females due to gender effect particularly estrogen effect during reproductive age. Also, the glycemic state and lipid profile were better in those aged >50 year than those aged <50 year. Meanwhile, hypercholesterolemia was found in 45 (36.6%) patients, hypertriglyceriemia was found in 20 (16.3%) patients, decreased HDL-C was found in 29 (23.6%), and increased LDL-C was found in 58 (47.2%) patients, Forty-one (33.3%) patients had no abnormal lipid profile parameters, 25 (20.3%) patients had only one abnormal lipid profile parameters, 26 (21.1%) patients had two abnormal lipid profile parameters, and 31 (25.2%) patients had more than two abnormal lipid profile parameters. According to Diabetes Control and Complications Trial/National Glycohemoglobin Standardization Program (DCCT/NGSP), 17 (25%) males out of 64 and 28 (41.6%) females out of 59 were dyslypidemic. Dyslipidemia was improved in many diabetics with better glycemic control as reflected by HbA1c. Hence, achieving the target of HbA1c will contribute in improving the lipid state, and hence may lessen the diabetic complications in type 2 diabetic patients. | Introduction: Diabetes mellitus type 2 has become a global health-care problem of modern society due to a pronounced increase of prevalence to pandemic proportions and vascular complications. At present, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is widely accepted as a measure of glycemic control in established diabetes. The aim of this study was to analyze the lipid profile in serum of patients with diabetes mellitus type 2, and its relationship with HbA1c levels. ::: Methods: The observational cross-sectional study included 60 diabetic patients, 30 men, and 30 women, age 32–94 years. Patients were assigned into two groups based on HbA1c values; Group 1: HbA1c ≤ 7% (good glycemic control) and Group 2: HbA1c > 7% (poor glycemic control). We analyzed the concentration of glucose, HbA1c, and lipid profile including total cholesterol levels, triglycerides (TAG), low-density lipoproteins (LDL), and high-density lipoproteins (HDL). ::: Results: Significantly lower values of glucose concentration, TAG and the ratio TAG/HDLc were obtained in the group of patients with good glycemic control. (p 0.005) Our study revealed a significant positive correlation between HbA1c and triglyceride level (r = 0.375; p = 0.003) and HbA1c and ratio triglyceride/HDLc (r = 0.335; p = 0.009). ::: Conclusion: HbA1c can also be used as a predictor of dyslipidemia in type 2 diabetics in addition to as a glycemic control parameter. | s2orc_abstract_citation |

Reducing Filipino migrant domestic workers HIV and SRH vulnerability: The ACHIEVE experience. | The private nature of the work done by Filipino migrant domestic workers renders them vulnerable to physical sexual and psychological abuses. With minimal access to sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) information and services as well as gender-based differences in power female domestic workers encounter difficulties in halting sexual advances and negotiating for use of condoms to protect themselves from STIs and HIV. The impact of these circumstances on their health is tremendous. The National HIV/AIDS Registry of the Philippine Department of Health currently states that among the overseas Filipino workers infected with HIV migrant domestic workers comprise 18%.1 This is significant given that only 8.6% of those working overseas were employed in the domestic sector. Regrettably it is difficult to implement and monitor standards of protection and education for migrant domestic workers as their work is not legally recognised as work in many destination countries.

The 'Responsibility to Protect' Doctrine: Revived in Libya, Buried in Syria | Proponents of the “responsibility to protect” doctrine, commonly referred to as R2P, claim that it came of age with NATO’s successful military intervention to protect the civilian population in Libya. This commentary raises questions of whether NATO’s intervention under UN Security Council Resolution 1973 followed the original 2001 R2P report and other related UN documents, and contends that if R2P had come of age with NATO’s intervention in Libya, it has had a tragic death with the Security Council’s inability to initiate actions on Syria. The death of R2P in Syria has been rendered inevitable by NATO’s abuses in Libya, and the doctrine is doomed to a bleak future. | s2orc_title_abstract |

[Serious Question] What do you guys think is the least amount of money I could spend on a rig that would out perform my Macbook Pro? | Yes, I am a fan of the Macbook pro, I think it's a nice laptop for college and light video editing. That being said, I'm an avid PC gamer, and I'm looking to build a desktop that can run the DayZ standalone when (if) it comes out, because my poor little laptop simply cannot do it.
My question to you guys is what do you think the cheapest build I could do that would out perform my Macbook for gaming? I realize that it obviously isn't built for gaming with its integrated graphics, but It has done alright, I believe because of its (relatively) fast i5 and 8g RAM.

Great tent for 2 people | My fiancee and I bought this tent a few years ago after researching several others. This tent is ideal for a couple. There is plenty of room for a queen air mattress which leaves a good amount of space on either side for your gear. The screened in porch has room for 2 chairs to kick back and relax without being eaten alive by bugs. The only gripe I have about this tent is the lack of a floor in the porch, which can be remedied by laying down a tarp under the tent itself before setup. Setup is relatively simple with 2 people and if set up PROPERLY, it will stand up to just about anything. I don't understand reviews where people state that their tent would fall apart in the slightest breeze. The only reason this tent, or just about any other tent, would collapse under varying weather conditions, would be USER ERROR and maybe your choice of camp spots. We have camped 3X since we bought this tent and it stood up to 30-40mph winds without any issues and rain on a different trip without any water getting in, before I put water repellent on the seams. I would recommend purchasing a can of water repellent and spray the seams just in case. Better safe than wet and sorry. | amazon_reviews |
