Video: Difference Between Cross Infection And Secondary Infection The key difference between cross infection and secondary infection is that cross infection refers to the transfer of harmful microorganisms from another person, medical equipment or tools while secondary infection is an infection that occurs during or after treatment for another infection. Infections can be prevented via maintaining clean and thoroughly sanitized areas around patients. Hence, doctors wash their hands frequently. Moreover, sterile environments are maintained inside the hospitals. Cross infection and secondary infection are two types of infections from which patients should be saved.


The song “The Letter M” can be used in conjunction with teachers who are using the B.E.L.L. Program in their classroom. B.E.L.L. stands for Building Early Language and Literacy.

Scientists first learned of "Snubby"—as they nicknamed the species—from hunters in the remote, mountainous Kachin state (map) in early 2010, according to the U.K.-based conservation group Flora & Fauna International (FFI), which announced the discovery Wednesday. The hunters told the team of R. strykeri's fleshy lips, upturned nose, and odd respiratory issue: Rain falling into the monkeys' noses possibly causes the animals to sneeze, so they often spend soggy days with their heads tucked between their knees, the hunters said. Local hunters told the FFI team that the rainy season was a good time to look for the monkeys because they made more noise during rain. Eventually, more of the snub-nosed monkeys were seen, but they moved so fast no photographs could be taken. Link (Image credit: Ngwe Lwin)


- Roman Auxiliary Soldier Roman Auxiliary Soldier The Auxilia were non-citizen troops attached to the citizen legions, and provided almost all of the Roman army's cavalry and more specialised troops.

Eating Clean…what is it and why? Eating clean is about eating whole foods that are unprocessed or minimally processed, making them as close to their natural form as possible. Eliminating the simple sugars; such as refined sugar and simple carbohydrates that create insulin levels to rise will allow the metabolism to increase. Getting the proteins, carbohydrates and good fats that the body needs will help to increase energy and burn body fat. Tips for burning body fat and creating healthy habits: - Eat four to six small meals a day. - Don’t sabotage yourself with sugar. - Drink water instead of sweet drinks. - Wait 3 hours between meals to allow food to digest. - Exercise to increase metabolism and create lean muscle mass which in turn helps to burn body fat.

A man walks into a doctor’s office. He has a cucumber up his nose, a carrot in his left ear, and a banana in his right ear. “What’s the matter with me?” he asks the doctor. The doctor replies, “You’re not eating properly.” Naturopathic primary care is geared toward family medicine for all life stages! Naturopathic medicine offers a whole-body approach to healing. The body’s way of showing imbalance is to create symptoms of disease. As the body adapts to an imperfect environment, it will compensate in what many view as a negative symptom. The goal of naturopathic medicine is to bring the body back into balance rather than suppressing these complaints. This allows our patients to truly heal and live better lives. Naturopathic doctors take the time to really listen to each patient, discuss symptoms and life factors, and holistically guide each individual to healing.

Depth of field Jump to navigation Jump to search The depth of field is the range of distances or thicknesses of an object that are simultaneously in good focus. The depth of field decreases as the distance from the object to the lens decreases. Thus, the depth of field for objects viewed with an optical microscope is very small. The depth of field increases with decreasing numerical aperture. The depth of field is frequently, but incorrectly, termed the depth of focus.

The earliest sign of habitation is a flint dagger discovered in the chalk cliffs. It is believed to date back about 250,000 years. Located on Whitehawk hill overlooking Brighton racetrack is the remains of a Neolithic “causeway camp” of the New Stone Age. The Romans came, saw, conquered, built roads and villas; and then departed. Saxons following a chieftain called Aella secured the area and made it theirs (Sussex, land of the South Saxons). Brighton is first mentioned in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicles of the seventh century as “Beorthelm’s-tun” and means “the town of Beorthelm”. Beorthelm’s-tun, by now “Brighthelmstone”, remained a small fishing village (population circa two thousand) until the 1780s.

We describe the deposition of continuous metal nanostructures onto glass and silicon using a heated atomic force microscope cantilever. Like a miniature soldering iron, the cantilever tip is coated with indium metal, which can be deposited onto a surface forming lines of a width less than 80 nm. Deposition is controlled using a heater integrated into the cantilever. When the cantilever is unheated, no metal is deposited from the tip, allowing the writing to be registered to existing features on the surface. We demonstrate direct-write circuit repair by writing an electrical connection between two metal electrodes separated by a submicron gap. |Original language||English (US)| |Number of pages||3| |Journal||Applied Physics Letters| |State||Published - 2006| ASJC Scopus subject areas - Physics and Astronomy (miscellaneous)

Source Code Management Developer software designed to manage different versions of programming code. Common source code management (SCM) systems are Git, Subversion, and Team Foundation Server. An SCM system allows developers to check code in and out, save multiple versions of files, view changes made between versions of files, and create private workspaces (“branches”) of entire projects to avoid conflicting with other developers. Often called a “repository” or “source code repository” (and abbreviated as “repo”). This can get confusing, as the portion of a CMS itself which stores content can also be to referred as a “repository.” All code – both core code and templating code–will be stored in an SCM of some kind.

Bursa is also a cradle of civilization and a town of history which brings the spatial and architectural characteristics of Byzantine, Ottoman and Republican eras to the present. The earliest known settlement at this location was the Ancient Greek city of Cius, which Philip V of Macedon granted to Prusias, the King of Bithynia, in 202 BC. Prusias rebuilt the city and renamed it to Prusia. Bursa became the first major capital city of the early Ottoman Empire following its capture from the Byzantines in 1326. During the Ottoman period, Bursa continued to be the source of most royal silk products. The population of Bursa was 45,000 in 1487. Bursa remained to be the most important administrative and commercial center for centuries. Following the foundation of the Republic of Turkey, Bursa became one of the industrial centers of the country. History of Bursa DOWNLOAD PDF


Pluto finally got a visitor from Earth, 85 years after the dwarf planet’s discovery by American astronomer Clyde Tombaugh. Completing a nine-year, 3-billion-mile voyage, NASA's New Horizons spacecraft reached the former ninth planet of our solar system on Tuesday. The visit marks the first time clear images of Pluto will be seen by human eyes. Up until last year, the Alaska-sized dwarf planet appeared only as a fuzzy blur even in the most powerful of telescopes. We discuss the milestone flyby with astronomers Mark Hammergren and Lucianne Walkowicz from the Adler Planetarium who'll tell us what the photos and scientific instruments aboard New Horizons are already uncovering about our very distant neighbor and its five known moons.


The healthcare industry traditionally has used site-based clinical trials to assess the efficacy and safety of drugs and medical devices. Data collected from participants in these trials would be evaluated to determine whether the product in question should be approved for commercial use. In recent years, however, the exponential increase in patient data recorded by digital devices has raised the possibility that real-world data (RWD) and real-world evidence (RWE) may be used to augment clinical trial data. But what are RWD and RWE? Are they the same thing? And how could they effectively be integrated into clinical trials to produce better outcomes for consumers? Here’s how the FDA defines RWD and RWE: Real-world data relate to patient health status and/or the delivery of healthcare routinely collected from a variety of sources. RWD can come from mul…


Today's St. Patrick's Day, but obviously saying its full name takes too long. So when you shorten it, which one of these do you go with: St. Paddy's Day, with two D's . . . or St. Patty's Day, with two T's? According to a new survey, 49% of Americans go with the T version, 29% go with the D version, and the rest aren't sure. People with Irish heritage are more likely to use the D version, which makes sense . . . the D version is the original, authentic Irish abbreviation. The patron saint of Ireland is St. Padraig, which has a D in the name. In English, the name is St. Patrick, which is where the T's come from. (On a related note, a studyranked all 50 states from most to least Irish. Most of the top states are in the Northeast, like you'd expect. Hawaii is the least Irish.)


Shearing is the process whereby the sheep's fleece (wool) is removed using mechanical shears called 'handpieces'. For sheep breeds that are specifically grown for wool production, the fleece needs to be removed regularly because it grows continuously. Sheep are typically shorn at least once a year, usually in the summer. Cleansing and Drying Raw wool requires a very intricate process in order to prepare it adequately for the spinning process. one of the substances our weavers would like removed is Lanolin


The Tiger (Panthera Tigris) is the largest cat species, reaching a total body length of up to 3.38 m (11.1 ft) over curves and exceptionally weighing up to 388.7 kg (857 lb) in the wild. Its most recognizable feature is a pattern of dark vertical stripes on reddish-orange fur with a lighter underside. The species is classified in the genus Panther with the lion, leopard, jaguar and snow leopard. Tigers are apex predators, primarily preying on ungulates such as deer and bovid. Tigers are among the most recognizable and popular of the world's charismatic mega fauna.


Sand is an essential element in concrete and hence plays an important role in the construction and infrastructure industry in a modern economy. It is typically sourced from riverbeds which are located in ecologically sensitive areas. Hence, excessive mining leads to the degradation of riverbeds, which affects the local groundwater system, potential biodiversity and the recreational potential of these regions. A large quantity of the official sand production per year in Karnataka is currently sourced from riverbed mining, some of which is also imported from neighbouring states. This study estimates the current demand for sand to be 26 Mt (in 2014) and the future demand to grow between 56 and 81 Mt per year. The study suggests alternate viable materials to meet the demand. Based on superior technical performance and availability of manufactured sand, recommendations are also proposed.

Infection with Saint Louis Encephalitis virus rarely results in severe symptoms. It is closely related to West Nile virus and distinguishing between the viruses requires advanced diagnostic tests. Infected mosquitoes pass the virus to birds when they take a blood meal. Mosquitoes can transmit St. Louis encephalitis virus to humans too. Few infected people develop symptoms, but serious disease can occur. The health risk is higher for elderly and immune compromised persons. Saint Louis Encephalitis was last detected in mosquito samples within the District in 1993, but is currently re-emerging in various areas of California.

For internal Flaw/Imperfection of a materiel, a good way to examine is by using Ultrasonic Flaw Detection. It transmits a high frequency of sound waves into a material to detect imperfection. The sound is introduced into the test object and reflections are return to a receiver from internal imperfection. Ultrasonic Flaw Detection is able to detect internal imperfection of object compared to Liquid Penetration Testing & Magnetic Particle Inspection. The test surface must be clean and smooth, any paint are to be removed. Imperfection/Flaw cannot be visibly seen, it is determine by the echo that returned to the receiver.

What is this? There's the app to train your math skills for Texas Holdem Poker. How does it work? The app generates random possible game situations and estimates of winning. It uses Monte Carlo Method for estimation. The app checks 10 000 outcomes on each step. You are then asked to guess the calculated result. What's the point? Non-professional gamers often overestimate weak hands in mass games. Or vice versa: they underestimate the power of hand in "heads up" mode. This application is necessary to improve your prediction skills in Texas Holdem and increase your win rate. But I calculate odds perfectly! Well, I don't think so. For example: how would you estimate your odds with Q7 on preflop against 8 opponents? Actually, this hand wins only 7% of games. But if you "heads up" against one opponent your chance to win increases up to 54% Did you predict it perfectly?

Indoor spatial navigation is a challenge for individuals with limited visual input (Low Vision) and can be a challenge for individuals with normal visual input in unfamiliar, complex environments. Although outdoor navigation can be achieved using Global Positioning Systems (GPS), these signals are not available for indoor navigation. We have developed an indoor navigation aid that uses a Bayesian approach (Partially Observable Markov Decision Process; POMDP) to localize and guide a user within an unfamiliar building. We describe the fundamental concept here, in addition to empirical evaluation of the system within virtual environments of varying sizes. Our findings show that the system improves performance when visual information is degraded and also improves performance under normal conditions in large, complex environments.

A file in a sticky directory may only be removed or renamed by a user if the user has write permission for the directory and the user is the owner of the file, the owner of the directory, or the super-user. This feature is usefully applied to directories such as /tmp which must be publicly writable but should deny users the license to arbitrarily delete or rename each others files. Setting the sticky bit The sticky bit can be applied to directories. When the sticky bit is set, only the owner can delete files, even though others have write permission for the folder.The sticky bit is set with the +t option to chmod: $ chmod a+t directory_name


On average, approximately 82 percent of our everyday radiation exposure comes from Natural sources. Most of our radiation exposure comes from everyday sources that aren't considered harmful. This type of radiation comes from natural and artificial sources. Over 80% of it comes from natural sources. In natural sources, cosmic radiation cause much of our exposure. Most of our daily exposure to radiation from artificial sources is due to x-rays.

The small city of Reggio Calabria in southern Italy has seen the arrival of thousands of refugees who make the dangerous journey across the Mediterranean Sea in hopes of finding better living conditions. Who are they? Who is receiving them? Behind the overwhelming numbers are a multitude of human stories. Here are a few. In 2015, more than one million refugees crossed the Mediterranean Sea and reached European soil. Of those, about 157,000 refugees took the Central Mediterranean route, which connects Libya to Italy and Malta. In the same year, 2,892 refugees died on this route alone. Click on the highlighted countries to learn more about why people are leaving and to see the most common routes they take to reach Italy.


After Halloween, eating so much candy and not following good hygiene protocols may cause cavities. However, what makes chomping onto a chocolate bar (or other candies) such sudden tooth pain? The answer may be in dentin hypersensitivity (or a.k.a sensitive teeth)! Dentin hypersensitivity is s common condition associated mostly with the consumption of really hot or cold drinks but may also arise from eating foods with high sugar content, like in this case, candies. Dentin, in teeth anatomy, is the second layer of your tooth that is porous and made of microscopic tubules filled with fluid. When the first layer of your teeth (the enamel) is worn way—then dentin is exposed and due to its exposed surface mixing with sweet stuff often leads to pain.

Nutritious and balanced meals for students can provide outstanding benefits to young students and overall create a healthier learning environment and lifestyle. Creating healthy habits at a young age while in elementary school can help provide students with a foundation to build on as they grow. Children need proper nutrients and fuel as a component of an active brain at its fullest potential. The best way to approach this issue is to use case studies, correlation approaches, and historical research to evaluate trends and patterns of current school-provided meals to discover methods of improving them. Comparing trends of COVID provides various methods used during the different periods.


Published data from Pfizer says that short term efficacy between dose one and two is 52.4%. The UK’s Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation has said that short-term efficacy from the first dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine is calculated at around 90%. Immunity provided by the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine reaches its full effect seven days after the second dose. However, long term efficacy is unknown. We will know how long the immunity produced by the vaccine lasts as more data is collected. However, it is too early to know if whether this is a one-off injection or an annual one, like that for the ‘flu. Subscribe and stay informed on Cayman Reopening.


Red dragon fruit Dragon Fruit also known locally as Pitahaya Fruit is grown commercially in Vietnam. There are two kinds of dragon fruit: red dragon fruit and white dragon fruit. Many research pointed out that red dragon fruit has more nutrition than white dragon fruit. Red dragon fruit contain fair amount of lycopene.Some vitamin B such as thiamin (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin and B3 are also found in the red dragon fruit. In addition, it also contains a fair amount of caretene, calcium and zinc. Reseachers have concluded that the red dragon fruit is high in antioxidant activity which help to reduce the incidence of degenerative diseases such as arthritis, arteriosclerosis, cancer, heart, disease, inflammation and brain dysfunction.

Why Do Lemmings Go on a Death March to the Sea? Why Do Lemmings Go on a Death March to the Sea? According to legend, every three or four years, the lemmings of Norway march to the sea and drown themselves. These mouse like rodents aren’t really making a mass death plunge. Every few years, the lemmings’ feeding grounds become overcrowded. Great numbers begin to migrate, moving in one direction. They swim lakes and rivers and cross over mountains, eating as they go. Eventually, they reach the ocean. The lemmings think the ocean is just another body of water to cross, and don’t know that this swim will be their last. Lemmings have become the subject of a widely popular misconception that they commit mass suicide when they migrate, by jumping off cliffs. It is in fact not a mass suicide but the result of their migratory behavior.


The only one of the Seven Natural Wonders located in North America, the Grand Canyon is one of the world’s most spectacular landscapes. Carved out by the Colorado River, the Grand Canyon’s layered bands of red rock reveal billions of years of biological and geological history. At its deepest, the Grand Canyon is 6,093 feet deep. It’s not the deepest canyon in the world though. The Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon in Tibet plummets to a depth of 17,567 feet – more than 2 miles deeper than the Grand Canyon in Arizona.

Dr. Earl Wood, who helped Mayo Clinic pioneer heart surgery and also invented the G-suit that made high-altitude flight and space travel possible, died this week at age 97. You can read about him and see a documentary about his work here on the Mayo Clinic News Blog. As I was searching for some related links for that post (as part of my “day” job), I came across the documentary you see below, which won the “Legacy Award” from the Minnesota Historical Society’s Greatest Generation Film Contest in 2008. For technical reasons, I couldn’t embed this in the News Blog post, so I decided to do it here, to honor a great inventor who made a difference.

Learning Fundamentals in a Whole New Way Our early childhood program is the beginning of children’s quest for independence. In a multi-age classroom, children are able to facilitate their own learning by observing older peers or helping younger students with lessons. During this critical period in their life, children begin to refine their motor skills, both gross and fine, and learn how to move with purpose. Through our wide variety of materials, children grow cognitively by engaging in materials for Practical Life, Sensorial, Language, Mathematics, Culture, and Science. At this young age, children are also taught the importance of grace and courtesy and how to use it in their everyday lives.


Graphic design is the process of visual communication and problem solving that uses designs, logos, posters, billboards, commercials, and other designs to convey written and visual elements within an artistic dimension, using printing, photography, and illustration to convey any information to a target audience. Graphic designers combine symbols, images, and text to visualize the messages and ideas they want to convey. Such designs are eye-catching images both in real life and in the digital environment and can appear with different designs. When we say design, different colors or some element appear in people's minds. You can get acquainted with our designs, which are distinguished from each other by their creations.


Independence Day for the U.S. is on this Wednesday – this nation celebrates July 4th every year – would it mean as much to any of us … if no struggle had been involved in winning our independence? If no lives had been lost … if no sacrifice had been included – what would independence mean, then? Appreciation for something comes to us when we have to work for it … struggle for it … suffer for it … give up something for it. What is it to have a Sacrifice of Nothing? We focus on a really lesson-filled story. David has messed up & repented. But, consequences exist and those consequences are going to impact many, not just David. When we sin, others are always hurt. David is to offer a sacrifice as a part of his repentence. When all the supplied needed for this sacrifice are offered to David for free ... well, read it yourself and reflect on it. We'll talk about this Sunday morning!


How to Teach!? That is the Question! The good news is we do not have to wonder. By looking to the forms of classical teaching, we can begin to answer the question “How do I teach classically?” Studying this element gives us access to the skills, ideas, and knowledge we need to successfully teach anything, in a way that cultivates wisdom and virtue. It is true, there are certain ways of teaching that cultivate wisdom and virtue and there are certain ways of teaching that enslave us and our students. In order for our teaching to be as harmonious and freeing as the course of study, we must also embrace a few teaching methods and skills. Browse the posts below to learn more about the classical forms of Teaching. One great article, to begin with, is 'Homeschool Mom! You Can Only Teach 3 Things!'


More from the way-back archive that is Modern Mechanix, we see this November 1934 article from Science and Mechanics in which Pluto’s status as a planet was already in question. SINCE his discovery, the planet Pluto has been a good deal of a disappointment to his sponsors. Now Dr. Baade, of Mt. Wilson observatory, estimates that Pluto’s mass is something like that of Titan, the largest satellite of Saturn. But the mass of Titan, though the diameter is 2,600 miles, is but l/50th that of the Earth, or less than twice that of the moon. So that Pluto ranks as the largest asteroid, rather than the smallest planet; and it may be necessary to look farther for unknown planets. I never before realized that Pluto was referred to as “he” either. Hmmmmm. [tags]Pluto’s planetary status has long been in doubt, Pluto as a planet back in 1934[/tags]

Cultures of human dermal fibroblasts are very useful for a wide range of cellular and molecular studies. This is mainly because fibroblasts are one of easiest types of cells to grow in culture, and their durability makes them amenable to a wide variety of manipulations ranging from studies employing gene transfection to microinjection. Fibroblasts secrete a nonrigid extracellular matrix that is rich in type I and/or type III collagen. There is evidence showing that fibroblasts in different organs are intrinsically different. Dermal fibroblasts also secrete large quantities of hyaluronan in response to inflammatory stimuli. During wound healing, human dermal fibroblasts switch from a migratory, repopulating phenotype to a contractile, matrix-reassembling phenotype.

cane syrup is made by peeling and mashing sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum), then reducing its juices to produce a toasty, caramelized syrup with slightly bitter notes. Though it is common worldwide wherever the perennial grass grows in tropical and subtropical climates, cane syrup was once particularly loved in the American South—a place where weather demanded an early harvest. Unripe cane would not yield a large quantity of refined sugar—the important commodity—but it was suitable for cane syrup production. On small southern farms cane syrup became a common sweetener, requiring little equipment to make. Cajun Louisianans used the syrup in gâteau de sirop (spice cake) and pain perdu (French toast), or as “syrup soppin,” drizzled on a plate at the end of a meal and eaten with bread.

The Moor Macaque (Macaca maura) is sometimes called dog-ape because of its dog-like muzzles, although they are no more closely related to apes than any other Old World monkey. The Moor Macaque inhabits only Sulawesi. Currently, the IUCN has categorized Macaca mauras as endangered. The Moor Macaque is endangered mostly due to habitat loss from an expanding human population and deforestation to increase agricultural land area. It is estimated that only 1000 Moor Macaques are left in Sulawesi. Jaya = Name invented :o)


In Greek mythology was a Titanessess and sea goddess who was both sister and wife of Oceanus . Together, they had the three-thousand Oceanids During the war against the Titans, Tethys raised Rhea, her god-child. Hera was not please with the placement of Callisto and Arcas in the sky, as the constellations Ursa Major and Ursa Minor, so she asked her nurse, Tethys, to help. Tethys, a marine goddess, cursed the constellations to forever circle the sky and never drop below the horizon, hence explaining why they are circumpolar. - With Oceanus - Clitunno (Roman mythology) - Tiberinus (Roman mythology) - Tibertus (Roman mythology) - Volturnus (Roman mythology)

The name scampi can refer to several varieties of lobster; crustaceans with 10 legs, the first pair of which, by far the largest, terminate in long, thin pincers. They can be found in the north-eastern Atlantic (from Iceland to the south of Portugal), North Sea and Mediterranean, at depths that vary according to water temperature and the nature of the seabed. They only leave their “den” in the seabed silt at half-light, at dawn or dusk, so can only be caught at these times. Scampi has not always been considered a delicacy. Until the late 19th century, it was considered an incidental and unworthy catch, and thrown back into the sea. Only since the Second World War has scampi really come to be appreciated for its lean and delicate meat.


MIDI, or Musical Instrument Digital Interface, is a standard that describes a protocol, digital interface, and electrical connectors that connect a wide variety of electronic musical instruments, computers, and other related audio devices. It is used for playing, editing, and recording music. It is also used for controlling synthesizers and other electronic musical instruments. The MIDI protocol is very simple. It is a protocol that allows you to send messages between devices. The messages are sent over a serial connection, and they are sent using a specific format. MIDI Controlled Drums Follow along as we control some solenoids using MIDI from Ableton Live. It's a fun way to learn the MIDI protocol, now to control solenoids, and inspires other project ideas.


Legality and ethics of mandatory drugs testing Mandatory drug testing entered American life through two separate historical routes. The first was through the common law system, employing precedents philosophically derived from the idiosyncratic rules governing the “king’s forest” and the “king’s highway”. From these arcane precepts are derived the laws which allow legal authorities to detain and test persons under suspicion of driving under the influence of a psychoactive drug. Post-incident drug testing Post-incident drug testing is not a very commonly administered test compared to the other two, but the financial ramifications of not testing employees after an accident (or other incident) on the job makes this test worthwhile for most businesses. Random drug testing Random drug testing is the most effective format. In the USA, random drug testing is used by a growing number of

Q: What is an Overactive Bladder? Dr. Donnica: Overactive bladder, or OAB, is an embarrassing, disruptive, chronic medical condition that affects 17 million people in the U.S., including nearly one of every five adults over the age of 45. It is marked by symptoms of urinary frequency or urinating more than eight times in a 24-hour period, including two or more times a night. Other symptoms include urinary urgency, a strong and sudden need to urinate, and urge incontinence, the accidental loss of urine caused by a sudden and unstoppable urge to urinate. Many people with overactive bladder mistakenly believe that the condition is an unavoidable part of aging that they must learn to live with. As a result, many patients suffer in silence without seeking help. Click here for more information on incontinence. Created: 5/24/2001 - Donnica Moore, M.D.


Calluses are areas of hyperkeratosis, or overgrowth of skin tissue. The skin thickness and hardens. Calluses most commonly form on the feet and sometimes on the hands. Corns are small cone-shaped areas of skin overgrowth that most often form on or between the toes. They can be either soft or hard. If they form between the toes, the moisture of the area keeps them soft; corns that form on top of the toes are typically hard. Conventionally, the corns or calluses are surgically removed. But the recurrence is common, at the same site or often at others also. Homeopathy treats the tendency of the patient to corns and calluses, and thereby gives permanent cure. It offers a safe and permanent cure, without any invasive procedure

Dentures are a replacement option for missing teeth. A complete denture is a removable prosthesis of white plastic teeth in a pink gum-colored plastic base. Often called a "partial," this type of denture is often used when only some of the teeth are missing. A partial denture is a removable appliance held in place by gripping the remaining healthy teeth, usually with metal clasps or wires. Bar Attachment Denture The bar attachment denture can be used to replace entire rows of teeth. If you are wearing traditional dentures and find them to be inconvenient or uncomfortable, you are a top candidate for this restorative option.


Entamoeba histolytica (Amebiasis) Amebiasis is a parasitic infection caused by the protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica. Most cases of amebiasis occur in developing countries, where access to clean water and proper sanitation is limited. However, the condition can also be seen in developed countries among travelers who have visited areas where amebiasis is endemic. Symptoms of amebiasis can include diarrhea, abdominal pain, fever, and rectal bleeding. If left untreated, the infection can progress to involve the liver (amebic hepatitis) or the brain (amebic meningoencephalitis).

Item No.: BS-T5CB 1. Fluorescent lighting is 66 percent cheaper than regular lighting while providing the same brightness. When you consider that a quarter of any home's electrical consumption is done through light bulbs, the savings can add up considerably. 2. Fluorescent lighting lasts longer. On average, a fluorescent tube has a lifespan six times longer than a regular incandescent bulb. They tend to burn less after continuous use, and can be turn on and off without being afraid of burning it. 3. Fluorescent lighting does not give off heat, which makes them great for area lightning and for areas where additional heat can cause equipment to malfunction or bother the users.

Dating from the 16th Century AD – The Chonin were a Social Class of Japanese citizenry most associated with Middle Class structure. People that lived in Towns, were considered Chonin. Skilled Craftsmen of all types were seen as Chonin. Farmers, often Peasant (even if they were successful and lived in Town, however) – were not seen as Chonin. At the beginning of the 18th Century AD, Chonin were assigned a Social status under The Samurai – and would also by then include Merchants. The Chonin were also seen as among the first to not use barter (trade for goods and services by providing related service needed by the seller or buyer), and concentrated on monies as the then current form of buy and sell. The Chonin (as a Class) would die out (as a term), by the 1850s.


Changes Over Time The Beacon Hill of today offers little insight into its original habitat and dimensions. As portrayed in this nineteenth century romanticized painting by Samuel Lancaster Gerry, the peninsula was called Shawmut (the place of living fountains) by its Indigenous Native American inhabitants, and later described by early English settlers as “a mountain with three little hills rising on top of it” (or the Tri-mountain). As the predominant topographical feature of Boston’s early landscape, the hills known as Pemberton, Mt. Vernon, and the central summit, Beacon, offered a panoramic view of the harbor and surrounding countryside.


There is no question that mass violence is horrific – whether the result is death or injury or the impact is direct or indirect. Helping this group of trauma survivors is critical to the overall mental health of our nation and Give an Hour is ready to assist those who are affected. Give an Hour provides culturally responsive, evidence-based programming for people who have experienced humanmade trauma because of mass violence events. Mass violence is defined in multiple ways by various entities. The U.S. experiences more mass gun violence incidents than any other country in the world and states reported that guns were used in 82% of multiple-victim incidents; thus, in the United States, mass violence is often synonymous with gun violence.

Water Around a Fresh Crater These images show a very young lunar crater on the side of the moon that faces away from Earth, as viewed by NASA's Moon Mineralogy Mapper on the Indian Space Research Organization's Chandrayaan-1 spacecraft. On the left is an image showing brightness at shorter infrared wavelengths. On the right, the distribution of water-rich minerals (light blue) is shown around a small crater. Both water- and hydroxyl-rich materials were found to be associated with material ejected from the crater. Credits: ISRO/NASA/JPL-Caltech/USGS/Brown Univ. › Full resolution jpeg (106 Kb)


Sphere mapping may be used to approximate effects other the specular reflection. Any effect which is dependent only on the surface normal or other single vector can be approximated, including Phong shading and refractive effects. You can use your sphere map to store the outgoing color and intensity as a function of the normal. If you use a sphere map indexed by something other than the reflection vector, you will need to perform your own texture coordinate computations. When computing your specular sphere map, this color was determined by firing a ray which had been reflected about the normal. To compute a different type of sphere map, determine the color using a different method. For example, to create a Phong lighting map, you can take the dot product of the normal direction and the direction to the light source.


Challenged by Innovation? Someone May Have Already Solved Your Problem In 1946, Soviet inventor and science fiction writer Genrich Altshuller developed a methodology called TRIZ. It became known as "the theory of inventive problem-solving" and was based on a simple premise: across different disciplines and applications, the same challenges occur again and again. Unfortunately, people keep solving nearly identical problems from scratch. The main lesson from TRIZ is this: if you understand how your innovation challenge is similar to someone else’s, you can reapply solutions that already exist, instead of reinventing the wheel time and again.


Are you asking if water will slosh from the arctic, during the hour of the pole shift, reaching Finland and Estonia and as far inland as Belarus? If you read in detail our explanations for these regions, it says no such thing but the opposite. The sloshing, when 100 miles inland, is at a height of 200 feet, and this down from a height at the coasts of 500-600 feet. A tidal wave does not continue indefinitely in its forward motion, as the void behind it attracts the water to return, to seek its level. This is why tides go in and out. Yes, there will be a tidal slosh from the Arctic side, but this will be no greater than our warnings for other coasts. Nor will the water thrust inland from the Arctic all the way to Belarus!

Chemical Plant Design Declining electricity prices of renewable sources like solar & wind open several exciting new opportunities. One of these opportunities is the production of synthetic fuels using low cost renewable energy. In this workshop, we will design a chemical plant in under 4 hours: One that creates Methanol from water and CO2 as feedstock. This is a pressure-cooker program, aimed at content & ambition. The objective of this workshop is to let students explore the main steps in the design of a chemical plant. Special focus lies on the practical side of process engineering: How to estimate costs, how to identify the risks, how to successfully size equipment when little information is known. During the workshop a team of highly experienced coaches is present to guide & assist the students.


The list of states is shown on the map using representations from a GeoJSON file. The complex definitions of the German states require the use of both types of polygon related elements available under the GeoJSON standard, Polygon and MultiPolygon, along with the use of exterior rings and interior rings. The use exterior vs interior rings could be seen illustrated for the Brandenburg Bundesland (that surrounds Berlin): since Berlin is a Bundesland of its own, Brandenburg must be drawn containing the cutout of Berlin. This cutout is thus considered an interior ring. Afterwards, Berlin is drawn as a separate polygon that fills that cutout.


Is eating three meals a day important? In a word YES! Missing meals on a regular basis can lead to poor nutrition, muscle and weight loss. If eating three main meals a day is difficult to manage, then it does mean that snacks throughout the day really need to be nutritious and full of protein. Nutritious snacks should be offered to older people who: • regularly miss meals • eat only very small meals or • prefer to pick throughout the day • always have a poor appetite or have lost their appetite • are eating less than they usually do • have lost weight • are bedridden Good snacks include: Enriched milk, cheese, yoghurt, custard, fruit smoothies, breakfast drinks such as ‘Up and Go™’, fruit buns, fruit bread, fruit cake, finger buns, sandwiches, toast, muffins, scones, pikelets, crumpets, hearty soup, spaghetti, baked beans, even a bowl of breakfast cereal

Sticks Across the Chimney This popular tale is set in rural Denmark at the end of 19th century and captures the mood, customs and beliefs of that time - as well as delving into ancient Viking culture. When young Siri and Erik and their widowed mother buy a deserted farm with an ancient Viking grave mound on the land, they have no idea of the challenges and adventures that await them. First they must use their wits and humor to survive without money, as well as deal with suspicious townspeople. Later they participate in the mysterious and exciting events that lead to the opening of the mound and the discovery of a rich hoard of ancient Viking treasure. Sticks across the Chimney was written out of Nora Burglon's deep personal knowledge of Scandinavia, and is perfectly complemented by her Swedish tale The Gate swings In.

A lenticel is a loose aggregation of cells that penetrates the surface of a woody plant. Upon close inspection, it appears to be a blister-like break in the surface. These cells exchange gases between the atmosphere and the underlying tissues. Each lenticel becomes a pathway through which oxygen and other gases can diffuse to the living cells of the bark. Without sufficient oxygen, the cells of the bark would die.

(Matches, a lighter, quartz and steel striker, magnifying glass, bow drill) - What are some different ways you tried to gather water? (Solar still, plant respiration bags, morning dew) Why wouldn’t you want to drink right out of the creek? Would you in a survival situation? - What is your favorite game that you’ve plaited so far? Why did you like it? (Park ranger, knee-coup, eagle eye, dragons egg, poison dart frog, jump the creek)


Dedicated on September 30, 1935, by President Franklin D. Roosevelt, the Hoover Dam, once known as Boulder Dam, is a concrete arch-gravity dam in the Black Canyon of the Colorado River, on the border between the U.S. states of Arizona and Nevada. It was constructed between 1931 and 1936 during the Great Depression. Its construction was the result of a massive effort involving thousands of workers, and cost over one hundred lives. The dam was named after President Herbert Hoover. Photography by Jose More


The Paper Spine Cactus was first described in 1868 by Charles Lamarie. Native to western Argentina, the Paper Spine Cactus (Tephrocactus articulatus var. papyracanthus) is found growing naturally on the lower slopes of the Andes mountain range.Also known as Spruce Cactus, each new segment emerges from the cactus aureoles, which protect the new growth with a circle of defensive glochids and one large papery spine.This plant grows up to 12 inches tall. The pine cone-shaped segments loosely attached to each other and fall easily.The new segments seem to be reaching out to the warm sun as they poke through the old segments. Soon, they will reach maturity, and take on the typical mature pine-cone shape.


Surveying the use of neglected and Underutilized food-plant species in Africa. Case of Hoima, Uganda For centuries, neglected and under-utilized species (NUS) have been grown for their food, fiber, fodder, oil, and medicinal properties. Sometimes known as forgotten foods, they include cultivated, semi-domesticated and wild species and traditional varieties. Their roles have been increasingly undervalued, and their importance increasingly neglected by researchers, policymakers and markets. This report presents a case study that focuses on the uses of NUS in Hoima, Western Kenya, grown in two contrasting agro-ecologies (semi-arid, and sub-humid), both characterized by rising maximum temperatures and precipitation, decreasing minimum temperatures, and an increasing aridity index.

Argument is when you want to prove your opinion or point at the cost of winning over the situation/person you are arguing with. However, discussion is more of an openness towards considering the other persons opinion as a possibility in spite of it being contrary to your opinion. Arguments may end up in fights, where as a discussion helps us to be more open,tolerant and indicates respect for others opinion. Discussion gives openness towards a healthy relation and willingness to change your opinion based on reasoning. Another important point is that discussion helps to develop mutual respect whereas an argument often leads to trying to put down or degrade the other person or their opinion. Wishing you many more healthy discussions!


How to get first n characters of a string in Ruby In this tutorial, we are going to learn about how to get the first n characters of a string in Ruby. Consider, we have the following string: month = "august" Now, we want to get the first 3 characters aug from the above string.

Near Field Communication (NFC) is a wireless communication technology that allows the exchange of data between two devices by bringing them within 4 cm of each other. It is also known as RFID (Radio-Frequency Identification). The compatibility of NFC devices is not so much a problem as it was in the past. There are many manufacturers who are using and improving upon NFC technology, and there are more and more devices that come with the capability of NFC always enabled. This means that the user does not need to manually activate NFC before scanning a tag. In the below table, an overview of the NFC compatibility of Apple iPhones. As mentioned, iPhones are conservative with respect to NFC implementation and compatibility among Android devices is further ahead. If you have questions, feel free to reach out!

- About NSC - Skills Mismatch More than half of all jobs in Arkansas (58 percent) are middle-skill occupations that require more than a high school diploma, but not a four-year degree. Yet only 48 percent of Arkansas workers have been educated to the middle-skill level. Arkansas is home to approximately 143,000 immigrants, who comprise approximately 5 percent of the state’s population. As a result, immigrants play an essential role in the Arkansas labor market. However, immigrant workers also have lower educational attainment, on average, than native-born workers. In order for Arkansas to capitalize on the full talents and abilities of immigrant residents, the state will need to facilitate their skill building.


Trees, Shrubs and Woody Vines Common prickly ash is a thicket-forming shrub or small tree. Its compound leaves resemble of those of ash trees, but it’s in a different family. Pairs of stout, curved prickles occur at each node. Scattered statewide, but less common in the Ozarks. About Trees, Shrubs and Woody Vines in Missouri There are no sharp dividing lines between trees, shrubs, and woody vines, or even between woody and nonwoody plants. “Wood” is a type of tissue made of cellulose and lignin that many plants develop as they mature — whether they are “woody” or not. Trees are woody plants over 13 feet tall with a single trunk. Shrubs are less than 13 feet tall, with multiple stems. Vines require support or else sprawl over the ground.


Exeter Fellow discovers new approach for anti-cancer drugs Dr Alexandre Akoulitchev, Fellow of Exeter College and Senior Research Fellow of Oxford University, and his team have discovered a way to use “junk” DNA to create molecules that could be used in cancer-fighting treatments. Their paper, published in scientific journal Nature, details how they have discovered a way to create an RNA molecule that disables a gene which controls the rapid division of cells. The particular RNA molecule that is of interest to Dr Akoulitchev’s team inhibits the dihydrofolate reductase gene, which produces an enzyme that controls the molecules required for rapid division of cells. Existing anti-cancer drugs have worked by inhibiting the action of the enzyme; with this new approach, treatments could deactivate the gene directly, and neutralise the enzyme at the source of its production.

Considered one of the first existentialist novels, Notes from Underground contains one of the most unsettling characters in 19th-century fiction. Resentful, cruel, entitled, and pitiful, Dostoyevsky’s Underground Man is a disturbing human being bent on humiliating others for his own amusement. He despises modern society and stews in a self-imposed misery, articulated through his bitter, contradictory monologues about torment and alienation. The Gambler is perhaps the most personal of Dostoyevsky’s novels. Written to pay off the author’s own gambling debts, the book follows the obsessions and anxieties of Alexey Ivanovitch, a sympathetic character who has given in to the forces of addiction. His despair is compounded by his love for the enigmatic Polina Alexandrovna, a cold and distant figure who exploits his desperation.

American 🇺🇸 1836 - 1910 Winslow Homer was a landscape painter, illustrator, and printmaker based in the United States. Homer was mostly self-taught and began his career as a commercial illustrator, contributing to Harper’s Weekly. His landscapes reflected scenes from his working vacations, and his paintings with figures in them masterfully convey unspoken emotion and tension. Winslow Homer received a compliment from famous American author Henry James, who described his work by saying Homer had 'incontestably succeeded' in showcasing quotidian subjects in a pictorial way. Artists should never look at pictures, but should stutter in a language of their own.
