About Drums About Drums Links The drum is a member of the percussion group of musical instruments, which is technically classified as the membranophones . Drums consist of at least one membrane , called a drum head or drum skin, that is stretched over a shell and struck, either directly with the player's hands or with a drum stick , to produce the sound . There is usually a "resonance head" on the underside of the drum, these are usually tuned to a slightly lower pitch than the top drum head. Other techniques have been used to cause drums to make sound, such as the thumb roll . Drums are the world's oldest and most ubiquitous musical instruments and the most basic design has remained virtually unchanged for thousands of years. A drum kit ,drum set, trap set, or just drums is a collection of drums and other percussion instruments , typically cymbals , which are set up on stands to be played by a single player with drumsticks held in both hands and the feet operating pedals that control the hi-hat cymbal and the beater for the bass drum . A drum kit consists of a mix of drums and idiophones most significantly cymbals but also including the woodblock and cowbell. In the 2000s, some kits also include electronic instruments and both hybrid and entirely electronic kits are used. A standard modern kit (for a right-handed player), as used in popular music and taught in music schools, contains: - A snare drum , mounted on a stand , placed between the player's knees and played with drum sticks : - A bass drum , played by a pedal operated by the right foot - Two or more toms , played with sticks or brushes - A hi-hat , played with the sticks, opened and closed with left foot pedal - One or more cymbals , played with the sticks All of these are classed as non-pitched percussion , allowing for the music to be scored using percussion notation , for which a loose semi-standardized form exists for the drum kit. If some or all of them are replaced by electronic drums , the scoring and most often positioning remains the same, allowing a standard teaching approach. The drum kit is usually played while seated on a drum stool or throne. The drum kit differs from instruments that can be used to produce pitched melodies or chords, even though drums are often placed musically alongside others that do, such as the piano or guitar . The drum kit is part of the standard rhythm section used in many types of popular and traditional music styles ranging from rock and pop to blues and jazz. Other standard instruments used in the rhythm section include the electric bass , electric guitar and keyboards . Many drummers extend their kits from this basic pattern, adding more drums, more cymbals, and many other instruments including pitched percussion . In some styles of music particular extensions are normal, for example double bass drums in heavy metal music and the enlarged kits used by some progressive rock drummers , which may include unusual instruments such as gongs . Some performers use small kits that omit elements from the basic setup, such as some rockabilly drummers. Some drum kit players may have other roles in the band, such as providing backup vocals , or less commonly, lead vocals .

In addition to numerous articles on mathematics, Whitehead wrote three major books on the subject: A Treatise on Universal Algebra (1898), Principia Mathematica (co-written with Bertrand Russell and published in three volumes between 1910 and 1913), and An Introduction to Mathematics (1911). The former two books were aimed exclusively at professional mathematicians, while the latter book was intended for a larger audience, covering the history of mathematics and its philosophical foundations. Principia Mathematica in particular is regarded as one of the most important works in mathematical logic of the 20th century.

Klemens von Metternich Klemens Wenzel Nepomuk Lothar, Prince von Metternich-Winneburg zu Beilstein, KOGF (German:[ˈmɛtɐnɪç]; 15 May 1773 – 11 June 1859)[1] was an Austrian diplomat who was at the center of European affairs for four decades as the Austrian Empire's foreign minister from 1809 and Chancellor from 1821 until the liberal Revolutions of 1848 forced his resignation.

If they're green metal boxes, they are transformers. You probably have underground electrical service. These essentially take the place of the [gray metal cylinders](_URL_0_) on utility poles, which are used in overhead electrical services. Underground electrical services run high voltages just like overhead powerlines (sometimes up to around 14.4 thousand volts) and these ground-dwelling boxes step that voltage down to 220v or whatever is used in your home. One may run your entire street or maybe several of the houses on your street. Other common mystery boxes may be for phone, internet, etc. Taxes and your electric bill pays for them.
Drinking water after a meal. 1 I have read countlless passages and heard from dietitians that drinking water after the meal is bad for you. It dilutes the stomach acid which begins the digesting progcess, and causes the intestines to work double-time digesting the food which never got neutralized in the stomach. 2 water after food.
Selenium is an essential trace mineral important for cognitive function, a healthy immune system and fertility for both men and women. Selenium is found in a variety of foods, the richest sources being Brazil nuts, seafood and organ meats. The amount of selenium in food often depends on the selenium concentration of the soil and water where the food was grown or raised. This MNT Knowledge Center feature is part of a collection of articles on the health benefits of popular vitamins and minerals.
Norovirus , sometimes referred to as the winter vomiting bug in the UK and Ireland , is the most common cause of viral gastroenteritis in humans . It affects people of all ages . The virus is transmitted by fecally contaminated food or water , by person-to-person contact , and via aerosolization of vomited virus and subsequent contamination of surfaces . Annually , norovirus is associated with 906,000 outpatient visits in industrialized countries , with 64,200 inpatient hospitalizations . In developing countries , it is associated with 1.1 million hospitalizations , with an estimated 218,000 deaths . Norovirus infection is characterized by nausea , vomiting , watery diarrhea , abdominal pain , and in some cases , loss of taste . A person usually develops symptoms of gastroenteritis 12 to 48 hours after being exposed to norovirus . General lethargy , weakness , muscle aches , headaches , and low-grade fevers may occur . The disease is usually self-limiting , and severe illness is rare . Although having norovirus can be unpleasant , it is not usually dangerous and most who contract it make a full recovery within two to three days . On surfaces , norovirus is rapidly inactivated by either sufficient heating or by chlorine-based disinfectants and polyquaternary amines , but the virus is less susceptible to alcohols and detergents . After infection , immunity to the same strain of the virus -- the genotype -- protects against reinfection for between 4.1 -LRB- 95 % confidence interval -LSB- CI -RSB- 3.2 -- 5.1 -RRB- to 8.7 -LRB- 95 % CI 6.8 -- 11.3 -RRB- years . This immunity does not fully protect against infection with the other diverse genotypes of the virus . Outbreaks of norovirus infection often occur in closed or semiclosed communities , such as long-term care facilities , overnight camps , hospitals , schools , prisons , clubs , dormitories , and cruise ships , where the infection spreads very rapidly either by person-to-person transmission or through contaminated food . Many norovirus outbreaks have been traced to food that was handled by one infected person . The genus name Norovirus is derived from Norwalk virus , the only species of the genus . The species causes approximately 90 % of epidemic nonbacterial outbreaks of gastroenteritis around the world , and may be responsible for 50 % of all foodborne outbreaks of gastroenteritis in the United States .
The years following 2009 marked a shift in the structure of the "Big Four" with Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City both breaking into the top four. In the 2009–10 season, Tottenham finished fourth and became the first team to break the top four since Everton in 2005. Criticism of the gap between an elite group of "super clubs" and the majority of the Premier League has continued, nevertheless, due to their increasing ability to spend more than the other Premier League clubs. Manchester City won the title in the 2011–12 season, becoming the first club outside the "Big Four" to win since 1994–95. That season also saw two of the Big Four (Chelsea and Liverpool) finish outside the top four places for the first time since 1994–95.

Disney Channel originally renewed the series for a third season on November 12 , 2010 , but Lovato 's role was at an uncertainty at the time after she checked into treatment two weeks prior . No word on whether Lovato would return to her role had been said , and production on the season carried out as planned in January 2011 without Lovato , focusing on the So Random ! aspect rather than behind the scenes . An official name change to So Random ! was announced on April 4 , 2011 , and later that month Lovato announced that she would not be returning to her role as Sonny Munroe , putting an end to Sonny with a Chance .

A mandolin -LRB- mandolino -LSB- mandoˈliːno -RSB- ; literally `` small mandola '' -RRB- is a musical instrument in the lute family and is usually plucked with a plectrum or `` pick '' . It commonly has four courses of doubled metal strings tuned in unison -LRB- 8 strings -RRB- , although five -LRB- 10 strings -RRB- and six -LRB- 12 strings -RRB- course versions also exist . The courses are normally tuned in a succession of perfect fifths . It is the soprano member of a family that includes the mandola , octave mandolin , mandocello and mandobass . There are many styles of mandolin , but three are common , the Neapolitan or round-backed mandolin , the carved-top mandolin and the flat-backed mandolin . The round-back has a deep bottom , constructed of strips of wood , glued together into a bowl . The carved-top or arch-top mandolin has a much shallower , arched back , and an arched top -- both carved out of wood . The flat-backed mandolin uses thin sheets of wood for the body , braced on the inside for strength in a similar manner to a guitar . Each style of instrument has its own sound quality and is associated with particular forms of music . Neapolitan mandolins feature prominently in European classical music and traditional music . Carved-top instruments are common in American folk music and bluegrass music . Flat-backed instruments are commonly used in Irish , British and Brazilian folk music . Some modern Brazilian instruments feature an extra fifth course tuned a fifth lower than the standard fourth course . Other mandolin varieties differ primarily in the number of strings and include four-string models -LRB- tuned in fifths -RRB- such as the Brescian and Cremonese , six-string types -LRB- tuned in fourths -RRB- such as the Milanese , Lombard and the Sicilian and 6 course instruments of 12 strings -LRB- two strings per course -RRB- such as the Genoese . There has also been a twelve-string -LRB- three strings per course -RRB- type and an instrument with sixteen-strings -LRB- four strings per course -RRB- . Much of mandolin development revolved around the soundboard -LRB- the top -RRB- . Pre-mandolin instruments were quiet instruments , strung with as many as six courses of gut strings , and were plucked with the fingers or with a quill . However , modern instruments are louder -- using four courses of metal strings , which exert more pressure than the gut strings . The modern soundboard is designed to withstand the pressure of metal strings that would break earlier instruments . The soundboard comes in many shapes -- but generally round or teardrop-shaped , sometimes with scrolls or other projections . There is usually one or more sound holes in the soundboard , either round , oval , or shaped like a calligraphic -LRB- f-hole -RRB- . A round or oval sound hole may be covered or bordered with decorative rosettes or purfling .
Neeks were reptilian herbivores, averaging at about thirty centimeters in height, indigenous to the planet Ambria. They were non-sentient, and could often be seen congregating in flocks of about half a dozen, banding together for protection against the larger, carnivorous creatures, such as the Hssiss.he neeks would become jittery at the first sign of danger, as their visual and aural sense were far more attuned than most sentient species in the galaxy. Over time, the neeks developed an immunity to the dark side of the Force, due to them living in close proximity to the dark side nexus that was Lake Natth.
BBC - iWonder - The Duke of Wellington: Forging the 'Iron Duke' The Duke of Wellington: Forging the 'Iron Duke' 1769 Share this on Twitter The 'last great Englishman' The legacy of the Duke of Wellington towers over British history. The hero of Waterloo, vanquisher of Napoleon – poet laureate Alfred Lord Tennyson hailed him as the 'last great Englishman'. Statues still adorn the streets of many British towns and cities while his name has become synonymous with one of Britain's most celebrated victories. So how did Arthur Wellesley become the 'Iron Duke' we remember today? 1769 Universal History Archive/Getty Images Wellington spent much of his childhood at Dangan Castle, Ireland. The future Duke of Wellington was born Arthur Wesley (later changed to Wellesley) around 1 May, third surviving son in an aristocratic Irish family. His father, Garret, was the first earl of Mornington while his mother, Anne, was the eldest daughter of Arthur Hill, first Viscount Dungannon. An unhappy, lonely boy, Wellington exhibited few of the talents that would come to make his name. Lazy and socially awkward, his early schooling was fragmented, his performance uninspired. Only his violin playing showed any real promise. I vow to God I don't know what I shall do with my awkward son Arthur. Anne Wellesley, Countess of Mornington and Wellington's mother 1781 WAVE/Getty Images Eton College viewed from the river, painted in 1786. When Wellington was 12, his father died. That same year he started at Eton with his younger brother, Gerald. Anne, his mother, thought Wellington a slow, foolish child. His exploits at Eton did nothing to dispel that opinion. Frequently unsociable and occasionally aggressive, with little appetite for learning, Wellington was removed from school in 1784. His father's death in 1781 had hit the family's financial standing and another of Wellington's younger brothers, Henry, looked to be a more promising scholar. Wellington followed his mother to Brussels in 1785. Jobs for the boys Print Collector/Getty Images As Wellington was making his way in the army, the French Revolution came to a head, including the storming of the Bastille in 1789. At his family's behest, a career in the military beckoned – few other suitable options existed for such an unpromising young aristocrat. Wellington studied fencing, horsemanship and maths, but remained typically uninterested. His brother’s wealth and influence secured him a number of commissions, first as junior officer in the 73rd Foot and then as aide-de-camp to the lord lieutenant of Ireland. As the French Revolution moved towards its climax, Wellington’s elevation continued, even taking a seat in the Irish parliament. By October 1792 he had held five commissions in six different regiments. Revolution and focus DeAgostini/Getty Images The execution of Louis XVI challenged the established social order not just in France but throughout Europe. Events in France sent shockwaves through Europe. On 21 January King Louis XVI was executed at the guillotine. France had declared her egalitarian principles to be universal. The very fabric of established social order was under threat and by February Britain and France were at war. Wellington had to grow up quickly. He marked his new-found focus by setting aside 'frivolous' things like his violin. In April he joined the 33rd Foot, soon becoming the regiment's commanding officer. This was as far as his brother's influence could take him. He would now have to earn his promotions, on active service. Print Collector/Getty Images British troops attack the French during the Flanders Campaign. Wellington's opportunity came quickly. In 1794 the 33rd Foot was sent to the Netherlands and he fought the French for the first time. Though Wellington won plaudits for his role in the fighting, the Flanders Campaign as a whole was disastrous. By spring 1795 British forces had withdrawn, dejected and demoralised, and were evacuated from Hanover. The French had won, replacing the Dutch Republic with a client state. Wellington's first experience of war had come with th

On March 11 at 9 p.m., I went for a walk. When I came back an hour later and read an email sent by the University stating that campus would close for the remainder of the Spring semester, I felt as though the trajectory of my college experience had irrevocably and fundamentally changed. As I ran through the gamut of emotions with my peers, I felt anger, grief and a bitter sense of dark humor. But going to bed that night, I realized that where our generation had lost normalcy we had also gained passion. COVID-19 has awoken our generation to the consequences of inaction in the face of global crises and rightly reified the impact of societal upheaval. Despite the gravity of my and all Emory students’ losses, we should take solace in the fact that this disruption will be temporary. The symptoms caused by COVID-19 are similar to a stronger strain of the flu, this epidemic is not the apocalypse; classes will resume when this passes and life will return to normal. But enveloped in that normalcy will still remain the existential crises we’ve put on hold to fight this pandemic, like climate change, resource shortages, antibiotic-resistant bacteria and mounting international instability. I am not minimizing the devastation on our lives that COVID-19 has and will cause; in fact, it is this devastation that should serve as a warning to prevent even greater harm as our generations’ crises germinate. The proportional danger of these future catastrophes outweighs the long-term impact of COVID-19, and so it would be a waste of a learning opportunity if the current societal upheaval did not scare us into action to prevent much greater future calamity. Both those returning to campus next semester and graduating seniors entering the workforce should feel inspired to gather their strength and collectively work with intensity. We face a myriad of immediate crises such as those listed above, as well as larger generational issues, including violence, societal upheaval and environmental collapse. The impact from COVID-19, which is projected to kill almost 3 million, pales in comparison to that which antibiotic-resistant bacteria such as tuberculosis may soon have. Some experts believe these superbugs could kill 300 million people worldwide by 2050, for an average of 10 million a year. While we need to deal with the crises of today before the problems of tomorrow, COVID-19 is only a small taste of the deluge that our generation will face. It’s easy to pontificate about solutions — so what comes next? We deserve time to mourn; a semester of arrested development is painful and will regress our growth. But we cannot afford to wallow in the pain. These will prove to be the most formative years of our lives, as we’re now building the experience, the knowledge and the work ethic to prepare for the problems we will face. That means we have to take charge of our lives and improve our collective interest. We must vote and become politically involved, challenge ourselves intellectually, and be ready for any threat we may face. These ideas are only platitudes if we treat them as such through inaction and failure to integrate them into in work daily work ethic. We won’t be able to deal with the future’s global catastrophes if we don’t start by making small, actionable changes today. Before we change society, we need to start with what we can most affect: ourselves. It’s easy to talk about what should be done to prepare for these long-term crises — words are cheap, but actions are not. We have an opportunity to take action. We are in an election year, and class registration is several weeks away, so I challenge you: take the 8 a.m., speak up in class and enroll in a difficult course. Personally, I was going to take 15 credits, but now I’m taking 19. If we do not build long-term personal habits from COVID-19 today — challenging ourselves to discover solutions and grow, set tough but realistic goals, and stare into uncertainty and thrive in it — we will have no one but ourselves to blame when the world’s floodgates open on our heads. Emory, we deserve a moment of pain. But then let’s put on our boots, saddle up and get to work. The world won’t wait for us. Sean Anderson (19Ox, 21B) is from Atlanta.

Why Do You Experience Chest Tightness? Why Do You Experience Chest Tightness? Chest tightness is very common, especially in middle aged and elder people. Find out its exact causes to make sure you know how to heal it properly. Tightness in chest is one of the most common conditions in middle aged and elder individuals. In this age group, it is usually due to heart diseases. Chest tightness in young age is more likely to be due to a condition not related to heart. Some of the common conditions that can result in chest tightness in this age group are asthma, costochondritis, anxiety and pericarditis. Chest Tightness and Angina Chest tightness in middle aged and older individuals has been classically associated with the angina pectoris. The anginal pain is often felt as substernal chest tightness and is often caused by stressful physical activities. The pain or the tightness is usually relieved by rest. The pain or tightness might be felt radiating to the neck or the left arm. Angina occurs due to inadequate supply of blood to heart muscles. This may occur due to a variety of causes, for e.g. increased muscle mass and oxygen demand in hypertension, abnormal narrowing of the coronary vessels in ischemic heart diseases, etc. Anginal pain requires thorough evaluation and adequate treatment (depending upon the cause). If left untreated, it can lead to heart attack in the future. Chest Tightness and Anxiety Chest pain or tightness in chest is one of the common symptoms of anxiety and panic attacks. Chest tightness in anxiety and panic attacks can be associated with any of the numerous other symptoms that can occur. Occasionally, symptoms of panic attacks can mimic heart attack. Chest tightness due to anxiety can occur in any age group, although it is more likely to be in younger people. Chest Pain Masquerading as Chest Tightness More serious conditions like heart attack, pulmonary embolism ( clot in the lung ), and aortic dissection ( tear in aorta) typically present with very severe chest pain. However, due to high prevalence of diabetes mellitus and the subsequent neuropathy associated with it, chest tightness might be the only initial symptom perceived in these potentially fatal conditions. The diabetic neuropathy results in reduced perception of pain and this becomes more common with increasing duration of diabetes mellitus and with poorly controlled blood glucose levels in diabetes. Misperception of chest pain due to aforementioned conditions can lead to delay in seeking medical care and can be fatal sometimes. Other Causes of Chest Tightness Numerous other conditions can occasionally present as tightness in chest, although chest tightness is neither the most common nor the dominant presentation of these conditions. Few commonly encountered such conditions are: Gastritis Pneumonia Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Diseases (COPD)Asthma Bronchitis ( Inflammation of the airway passages to the lungs)Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease ( Heart Burn)Myocarditis ( Inflammation of the heart muscle)Pericarditis ( Inflammation of the sac surrounding the heart)Costochondritis ( Inflammation of the cartilage connecting the ribs and the breast bone)Treatment of Chest Tightness Chest tightness is a symptom. Therefore, treatment of chest tightness will depend on the disease condition causing this symptom. Evaluation of chest tightness often involves various investigations like EKG (ECG), chest X-ray, serum enzymes marker for heart attack (e.g. Troponins), etc. Other investigations depend upon the other suspected causes. Future course and complications of tightness in chest also depend on the cause.

PlayStation 3's initial production cost is estimated by iSuppli to have been US$805.85 for the 20 GB model and US$840.35 for the 60 GB model. However, they were priced at US$499 and US$599 respectively, meaning that units may have been sold at an estimated loss of $306 or $241 depending on model, if the cost estimates were correct, and thus may have contributed to Sony's games division posting an operating loss of ¥232.3 billion (US$1.97 billion) in the fiscal year ending March 2007. In April 2007, soon after these results were published, Ken Kutaragi, President of Sony Computer Entertainment, announced plans to retire. Various news agencies, including The Times and The Wall Street Journal reported that this was due to poor sales, while SCEI maintains that Kutaragi had been planning his retirement for six months prior to the announcement.
The Massachusetts study found that 0.5 percent of the population was transgender, while the California study found that transgenders made up just 0.1 percent of the population. That is: the California study found only one in 1000 Californians to be transgender. A 2009 study in the United Kingdom found similar results.

The name Seaside is derived from Seaside House, a historic summer resort built in the 1870s by railroad magnate Ben Holladay. The city's population was 6,457 at the 2010 census.

Indigenous peoples had long inhabited the coastal area. About January 1, 1806, a group of men from the Lewis and Clark Expedition built a salt-making cairn at the site later developed as Seaside. The city was not incorporated until February 17, 1899, when coastal resort areas were being settled. [8] It is about 79 miles by car northwest of Portland, Oregon, a major population center. [9]In 1912, Alexandre Gilbert (1843–1932) was elected Mayor of Seaside. Gilbert was a French immigrant, a veteran of the Franco Prussian War (1870-1871). After living in San Francisco, California and Astoria, Oregon, Gilbert moved to Seaside where he had a beach cottage (built in 1885). Gilbert was a real estate developer who donated land to the City of Seaside for its one-and-a-half-mile-long Promenade, or "Prom," along the Pacific beach. In 1892 he added to his beach cottage. Nearly 100 years later, what was known as the Gilbert House was operated commercially as the Gilbert Inn since the mid-1980s. Both it and Gilbert's eponymous "Gilbert Block" office building on Broadway still survive. Gilbert died at home in Seaside and is interred in Ocean View Abbey Mausoleum in Warrenton. Geography [ edit]According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 4.14 square miles (10.72 km 2 ), of which 3.94 square miles (10.20 km 2) is land and 0.20 square miles (0.52 km 2) is water. [2]180° panoramic view from the beach at Seaside. Tillamook Head at left. Seaside lies on the edge of the Pacific Ocean, at the southern end of the Clatsop Plains, about 29 km (18 mi) south of where the Columbia River empties into the Pacific. The city is developed on both sides of the Necanicum River, which flows to the ocean at the city's northern edge. Tillamook Head towers over the southern edge of the city. Harvesting razor clams The geography associated with the gradual slope of the broad sandy beaches of Clatsop Spit provide excellent conditions for the formation of beds of millions of Pacific razor clams annually. The razor clams attract thousands of visitors to Seaside Beach each year. [10]Climate [ edit]Seaside has a typical Pacific Northwest coastal climate, receiving rainy winters and mild-to-cool summers. Mean high temperature in the warmest month, August, is roughly 68 °F (20 °C).

Among other preparation, the City of Seaside has embarked on a program in which residents above the zone are asked to volunteer to store within their homes barrels of medical supplies, water purification systems, emergency rations, tarps, and radios, with each barrel having enough supplies to last 20 individuals for at least 3 days. As of January 2017, there are 119 barrels within volunteer households and a waiting list of interested households. [12]Seismologists estimate that there is a one in three chance that Seaside will be hit by an earthquake and tsunami within the next fifty years. [13] On Tues. Nov. 8, 2016, Seaside citizens voted 65% to 35% to issue 99.7 million in bonds to move the remaining three schools out of the tsumani inundation zone.

Arts and culture [ edit]The Seaside Jazz Festival (formerly the Oregon Dixieland Jubilee) is an annual festival that features some of the most popular Trad Jazz and Swing bands in the US and Canada. Seaside holds an art walk the first Saturday of each month. [18]Annual cultural events [ edit]Seaside hosts an annual 4th of July celebration which includes a parade, outdoor concerts, and one of the largest fireworks displays on the west coast. [19]Seaside City Hall Every spring (until 2017, when the conference was moved to Salem), Seaside hosted the Dorchester Conference, a convention of Oregon political activists, typically conservative, independent, or center-right. This convention was founded in 1964 by then-state representative Bob Packwood as a forum for all Republicans statewide. In the 1990s it became dominated by members of the conservative branch of the party. Over the years the conference has attracted visits from presidential candidates, debates between Republican primary candidates, and discussions of wider political and social issues. [20] It is run by an independent board and is not formally affiliated with the Oregon Republican Party. [21]The Miss Oregon Pageant, the official state finals to the Miss America Pageant, takes place annually at the Seaside Civic and Convention Center. [22]The annual Salt Maker's Return is held in August. The themed event celebrates Seaside history. Five men of the Lewis and Clark expedition needed nearly two months to make the equivalent of 28 US gallons (110 l) of salt; it was critical for them to be able to preserve meat for the winter and their several thousand-mile journey home to the East. [23]Seaside in 1972The beach and promenade at Seaside serve as the finish line for the Hood to Coast and Portland to Coast relays, held annually on the weekend before Labor Day. Museums and other points of interest [ edit]Seaside is home to the Seaside Aquarium, featuring living regional marine life, a hands-on discovery center, and a 35-foot (11 m) gray whale skeleton, all within a short walk from the Lewis & Clark monument. [24]Murals adorn several buildings throughout Seaside, depicting history, marine life, and life in Seaside.

[26] It will serve as the transportation element of the City of Seaside's Comprehensive Plan. The TSP will describe how the transportation network in Seaside is being used now and how it is expected to be used in the future (in 2030). TSPs need to be developed according to the State of Oregon's Transportation Planning Rule. At the end of the project, the recommended improvements will be consistent with the Clatsop County TSP and the Oregon Highway Plan.

Having a nightmare that you've gone to work with no trousers on is a common anxiety dream, but it turned into reality for one unfortunate man whose father promptly shared his embarrassing wardrobe malfunction on Twitter. The dad, who doesn't disclose his identity on social media, going by 'Hold My Beer,' shared a text conversation he had with his son, Zach, from Florida, who admitted to ripping his pants at work in front of a coworker. The incident was made worse because Zach, who works as a waiter, wasn't wearing any underwear due to it being 'laundry day,' and his female manager Kelly happened to walk past him when the pants ripped and witnessed the whole thing. Instead of keeping the hilarious but unfortunate event to himself, the father decided to publish their hilarious exchange on Twitter, leading the embarrassing story to go viral. Zach, a waiter from Florida, told his dad his pants ripped while he was at work. The incident was made worse by the fact he wasn't wearing any underwear Zach told his father that his manager, Kelly, was putting some bowls away and saw all of his anatomy when the pants ripped Zach told his father that the incident was the 'most embarrassing thing of his f**** life' before getting into the detail of the story. In brutally honest terms, the son explained to his dad that he thought the trousers were 'a little tight' but fitted him nicely, and still decided to wear them to work. But tragedy struck as the young waiter squatted down to pick up some bowls, his pants completely ripping apart in front of his manager who was putting soup bowls away. In candid terms, Zach added that Kelly had seen a very intimate part of his anatomy and 'looked inside of [him]. and that the incident has left him with 'aless chaps' for pants. In the hilarious exchange, Zach went on to say he had to go home and change, because his pants looked like 'aless chaps' The waiter had to rush home to change and went back into work like a true professional, after his pants 'exploded off' him. Zach's father shared the conversation on Twitter shortly after his revelations, and after asking permission. He said Zach 'f**** slays' him and that he had to get him on Twitter. Zach's father shared their exchange on Twitter with his son's permission, and said he had to get him on Twitter People loved the hilarious story, saying Zach was their 'hero,' also joking about Kelly, who had seen the whole thing The exchange quickly went viral, gathering more than 6,600 likes and 900 retweets as people could not get enough of poor Zach's misadventure. . 'Your son just became my hero,' one wrote. 'I think this means he and Kelly are now legally wed,' joked another. 'This is the best thing I've seen today. Zack is MVP of the day,' said one. 'It hurts to laugh this hard,' added another.
President Obama: The United States Formally Enters the Paris Agreement It's official: the US has joined the #Paris Agreement pic.twitter.com/q YN1i Rz SJk— Brian Deese (@Deese44) September 3, 2016Last December, more than 190 countries adopted the Paris Agreement, the most ambitious climate change agreement in history. In order for the agreement to take effect and enter into force, at least 55 countries representing at least 55 percent of global emissions need to formally join the Agreement. Today, the United States and China deposited with United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon their respective instruments to join the Paris Agreement, marking a significant contribution towards the early entry into force of the Paris Agreement. Today’s action by the United States and China to formally join is a significant step towards entry into force this year with countries representing around 40 percent of global emissions having now joined and more than 55 countries having already joined or publicly committed to work towards joining the agreement this year. Read the President’s remarks: We are here together because we believe that for all the challenges that we face, the growing threat of climate change could define the contours of this century more dramatically than any other challenge. One of the reasons I ran for this office was to make sure that America does its part to protect this planet for future generations. Over the past seven and a half years, we’ve transformed the United States into a global leader in the fight against climate change. But this is not a fight that any one country, no matter how powerful, can take alone. That’s why last December’s Paris Agreement was so important. Nearly 200 nations came together as — a strong, enduring framework to set the world on a course to a low-carbon future. And someday we may see this as the moment that we finally decided to save our planet. There are no shortage of cynics who thought the agreement would not happen. But they missed two big things: The investments that we made to allow for incredible innovation in clean energy, and the strong, principled diplomacy over the course of years that we were able to see pay off in the Paris Agreement. The United States and China were central to that effort. Over the past few years, our joint leadership on climate has been one of the most significant drivers of global action. In 2014, President Xi and I stood together in Beijing to announce landmark climate targets for our two countries to meet. That announcement set us on the road to Paris by jumpstarting an intense diplomatic effort to put other countries on the same course. In 2015, we stood together in Washington to lay out additional actions our two countries would take, along with a roadmap for ultimately reaching a strong agreement in Paris. This year, in 2016, we meet again to commit formally to joining the agreement ahead of schedule, creating the prospect that the agreement might enter into force ahead of schedule, as well. The United States and China are taking that step today, as our two nations formally join the Paris Agreement. Of course, we could not have done this extraordinary work without the strong support of the Secretary General of the United Nations, Mr. Ban Ki-moon, who has been an outstanding leader on this issue, as well. Now, just as I believe the Paris Agreement will ultimately prove to be a turning point for our planet, I believe that history will judge today’s efforts as pivotal. For the agreement to enter into force, as has already been stated, 55 countries representing 55 percent of global emissions must formally join. Together, the U. S. and China represent about 40 percent of global emissions. So today, we are moving the world significantly closer to the goal that we have set. We have a saying in America — that you need to put your money where your mouth is. And when it comes to combatting climate change, that’s what we’re doing, both the United States and China. We’re leading by example. As the world’s two largest economies and two largest emitters, our entrance into this agreement continues the momentum of Paris, and should give the rest of the world confidence –- whether developed or developing countries -– that a low-carbon future is where the world is heading. Of course, the Paris Agreement alone won’t solve the climate crisis. But it does establish an enduring framework that enables countries to ratchet down their carbon emissions over time, and to set more ambitious targets as technology advances. That means full implementation of this agreement will help delay or avoid some of the worst consequences of climate change, and pave the way for more progress in the coming years. This is the single-best chance that we have to deal with a problem that could end up transforming this planet in a way that makes it very difficult for us to deal with all the other challenges that we may face. President Xi and I intend to continue working together in the months ahead to make sure our countries lead on climate. Three years ago, in California, we first resolved to work together to secure a global agreement to phase down the use of super pollutants known as HFCs, and we’re now just six weeks away from final negotiations. We also have the chance to reach a global agreement to curb emissions from the global airline industry -– one that actually has the support of industry. And today, we’re putting forward roadmaps to get both negotiations done this year. On each of these issues, the United States and China have now developed a significant record of leadership on one of the most important issues of our time. Our teams have worked together and developed a strong relationship that should serve us very well. And despite our differences on other issues, we hope that our willingness to work together on this issue will inspire greater ambition and greater action around the world. Yes, diplomacy can be difficult, and progress on the world stage can be slow. But together, we’re proving that it is possible. And I was reflecting before we came in here with Secretary General Ban Ki-moon about the meeting that we had in Copenhagen in my first year of my presidency, which was quite chaotic. And I think it is fair to say that if you had looked at the outcome of that meeting, the prospects of us being here today, the prospects of a Paris Agreement seemed very far away. And yet, here we are, which indicates that where there’s a will and there’s a vision, and where countries like China and the United States are prepared to show leadership and to lead by example, it is possible for us to create a world that is more secure, more prosperous, and more free than the one that was left for us. So to all of you that have participated in this extraordinary effort, thank you very much. Thank you to President Xi. Thank you to the Secretary General. Follow along as the President continues on his Pacific trip.

Lake Mungo remains Lake Mungo 3 (LM3) was discovered by ANU geomorphologist Dr. Jim Bowler on 26 February 1974 when shifting sand dunes exposed the remains.[7] LM3 was found near Lake Mungo, one of several dry lakes in the southeast part of the continent and 500m east of the LM1 site. The body had been laid out in great ceremony on its back, with knees bent and hands positioned at the groin with the fingers interlocked. Next to the body were the remains of fire. The body had been sprinkled with red ochre, in the earliest known example of such a sophisticated and artistic burial practice. This ritual burial aspect of the discovery has been particularly significant to Indigenous Australians, since it indicates that certain cultural traditions have existed on the Australian continent for much longer than previously thought. At the time of LM3's discovery, it was believed that Aboriginals had arrived in Australia from Asia around 20,000 years ago. Since the discovery of LM3, further archeological finds at Lake Mungo suggest that human occupation of the area dates as far back as 50,000 years ago.

Todd Miller and the Joe Loss Orchestra - History History Toddlers Joe Loss was the undisputed doyen of big bandleaders. His name was synonymous with the very best in dance band music. Loved and respected by his public and profession alike, he had a style and musical policy that kept him at the very top of the big band world for 60 years. Joe was born Joshua Alexander Loss on June 22nd 1909. He was trained as a classical violinist and gave his first solo concert at the age of 10 . In 1930 when Joe was just 20, he became the youngest bandleader with a conducting style that he was to make his own. His first band was called The Harlem Band . By 1937, Joe had become the biggest name in the world of big-band music. Dame Vera Lynn gave her first broadcast with the band in 1938 and when Joe married Mildred Blanch Rose, the crowd scenes in central London were akin to Beatlemania of the 1960's. Joe Loss's first signature tune in the early 30's was "Let's Dance at the Make Believe Ballroom" and in 1938 this was changed to the now world renowned "In the Mood". Joe Loss became a regular on BBC TV's "Come Dancing" (the BBC's 50's and 60's version of "Strictly Come Dancing"). Joe was awarded the LVO, the OBE and HM the Queen's Silver Jubilee Medal. In 1989, Joe became too ill to travel and in 1990 Joe entrusted the leadership to Todd Miller , who has led the Orchestra through to the present day. Todd Miller joined the Orchestra as vocalist in 1972 having being recommended to Joe by many people. For 19 years, Todd worked under the guidance and friendship of Joe, and enjoyed a very special place in Joe's heart. Now having been with the Orchestra for 38 years, Todd's career has included 14 World tours on the QE2 , 2 Royal Weddings, many Royal Command Performances and Christmas parties for the Royal Family, and as leader, is proud to have been presented to Her Majesty the Queen on numerous occasions. Todd has performed on all the major TV channels and radio stations and all the main venues throughout the UK. In 2010 the Joe Loss Orchestra will be celebrating it's 80th Anniversary. The Orchestra is now Britain's longest running live entertainment unit of all time. Todd has led the Orchestra for the past 20 years, best appreciated live on stage in direct contact with the audience, performing the best in live entertainment for all generations. ©toddmillermusic.com 2009.

How much does tray teeth whitening cost? Dr. Saul N. Miller, DDSDentist The cost of tray whitening procedures can vary greatly from one office to the next. It is important to discuss your interest in this type of treatment with your dentist so that he or she can review costs, time involved, anticipated problems and results. Yes, there can be problems such as sensitivity and gum irritation; in fact, sometimes fillings have to be replaced and gums treated prior to "bleaching". Fees for any dental service may vary depending on where you live or where your dentist is located (area of country, urban, suburban, center of town, etc.). In addition there are always going to be a range of fees for the same service. This may depend on the experience of the dental practitioner, materials used, esthetic demands of the procedure and complexity and difficulty of the treatment or procedure. You may be able to find average fees for dental treatment in your area, but as with most other things just because a product or service may be the cheapest, does not necessarily mean it is the best. Also, you must feel confident in the dentist providing your care. Real Age Administration You can expect to pay anywhere from $10 to $40 for a tray-based teeth whitening kit purchased over the counter (OTC) from a pharmacy or other retail store. You can also purchase tray-based teeth whitening systems from dentists. These systems feature custom-fit tooth trays or mouthpieces, which is why they are significantly more expensive than OTC tray-based teeth whitening kits. Purchasing a tray-based teeth whitening system from your dentist may cost up to $500. (These prices are estimates and may change over time.) The cost of OTC tray-based teeth whitening kits varies depending on what product you purchase and where you live. If you shop around, you may be able to find discounts on OTC tray-based teeth whitening systems at large chain retailers or online.

In the private sector, corruption increases the cost of business through the price of illicit payments themselves, the management cost of negotiating with officials and the risk of breached agreements or detection. Although some claim corruption reduces costs by cutting bureaucracy, the availability of bribes can also induce officials to contrive new rules and delays. Openly removing costly and lengthy regulations are better than covertly allowing them to be bypassed by using bribes. Where corruption inflates the cost of business, it also distorts the playing field, shielding firms with connections from competition and thereby sustaining inefficient firms.

Monuments to an Elegy is the ninth studio album by American alternative rock band The Smashing Pumpkins, released on December 5, 2014. Band leader Billy Corgan has noted that—similar to the band's previous release, "Oceania"—the album is a part of the ongoing project, "Teargarden by Kaleidyscope". The album received generally positive reviews from music critics, but sold poorly compared to the band's previous albums, peaking at number 33 in the U.S. and number 59 in the U.K., thus making it their lowest charting album in both regions since their debut, "Gish" (1991).

DNA and RNA are identical in almost every way. They differ in their sugar molecules. DNA contains the sugar deoxyribose, whereas RNA contains the sugar ribose. These two sugar â¦ s are the same except for one OH (hydroxide) ion (deoxyribose has one OH ion more than ribose).hat differentiates them (and their DNA) is the sequence of base-pairs within the DNA. The base-pairs are actually specific sequences of nucleotides (i.e. adenine, thymine, guanine and cytosine, labelled A, T, G, and C respectively) which encode genes.

It is mainly happens due to fewer water supply to the body. This leads to lack of water to flush the unwanted toxins as well as impurities. yet drink at least ten glasses of water a day. It genuinely helps in dissolving kidney stone. Hey, what to do to preven stone formation? Just attempt to keep your urine dilute so that 1 may reduce stones. This is a mainstay of stone prevention. Oh! You like chocolates extremely much. Be careful while eating them because they can aid in increasing the stone size. avoid high oxalate foods such as chocolate, tea, decaf coffee, vitamin C supplements, rhubarb and spinach. It will be much better for you. Prevention is better than cure. thus do take care of such small things to keep away yourself from kidney stone. The individuals who are though suffering may dissolve etheir sone by following little tips. Tamsulosin, also well known as Flomax is well known to support individuals easily pass kidney stones along with reliving their pain to a certain extent. It will help to make the process simpler to bear. This medicine is commonly employed for men with enlarged prostates. It is specially designs for such men. This is the most preferred medicine for relaxing the muscles when the stone passes. Flomax as well as kidney stone come in mind together. It additionally works on muscles of the ureter to decrease the spasm. This spasm is the cause of the pain as well as nausea that happens when passing a stone. so retain flomax in your bag always. It is a intelligent idea. attempt it out. though do no forget to take doctors advice.

Ottoman Divan poetry was a highly ritualized and symbolic art form. From the Persian poetry that largely inspired it, it inherited a wealth of symbols whose meanings and interrelationships—both of similitude (مراعات نظير mura'ât-i nazîr / تناسب tenâsüb) and opposition (تضاد tezâd) were more or less prescribed. Divan poetry was composed through the constant juxtaposition of many such images within a strict metrical framework, thus allowing numerous potential meanings to emerge. The vast majority of Divan poetry was lyric in nature: either gazels (which make up the greatest part of the repertoire of the tradition), or kasîdes. There were, however, other common genres, most particularly the mesnevî, a kind of verse romance and thus a variety of narrative poetry; the two most notable examples of this form are the Leyli and Majnun of Fuzûlî and the Hüsn ü Aşk of Şeyh Gâlib.

First day of school In the United States, educational policy is determined primarily at the state level and at the level of individual school districts. Therefore, there is no one particular day on which all schools start. The first day of school for many school districts is on the day after Labor Day (first Monday in September). On that day, public transportation services increase and start the rush hour earlier. In some other school districts, school begins in mid- to late August.
The Other Reichs: The First and Second Before Hitler's Third Reich The Other Reichs: The First and Second Before Hitler's Third Reich 18th Century Statue of Charlemagne in the Vatican. Myrabella / Wikimedia Commons By Robert Wilde Updated July 08, 2016. The German word 'reich' means 'empire', although it can also be translated as government. In 1930's Germany the Nazi party identified their rule as a Third Reich, and in doing so gave English speakers around the world a wholly negative connotation to the word. Some people are surprised to find that the concept, and use, of three reichs is not a solely Nazi idea, but a common component of German historiography. This misconception stems from the use of 'Reich' as totalitarian nightmare, and not as empire. In this article your Guide will examine the institutions referred to as reichs, and explore how they compare. As you can tell, there were two reichs before Hitler made his third, but you might see reference to a fourth... The First Reich: The Holy Roman Empire (800/962 - 1806) Although the name dates to the twelfth century reign of Frederick Barbarossa , the Holy Roman Empire had its origins over 300 years earlier. In 800 AD Charlemagne was crowned emperor of a territory which covered much of western and central Europe; this created an institution that would remain, in one form or another, for over a thousand years. continue reading below our video Profile of Otto von Bismarck The Empire was reinvigorated by Otto I in the tenth century, and his imperial coronation in 962 has also been used to define the start of both the Holy Roman Empire, and the First Reich. By this stage Charlemagne's empire had been divided, and the remainder was based around a set of core territories occupying much the same area as modern Germany. The geography, politics and strength of this empire continued to fluctuate massively over the next eight hundred years, but the imperial ideal, and the German heartland, remained. In 1806 the Empire was abolished by the then Emperor Francis II, partly as a response to the Napoleonic threat. Allowing for the difficulties in summarizing the Holy Roman Empire - which parts of a fluid thousand year history do you select? - it was generally a loose confederation of many smaller, almost independent, territories, with little desire to vastly expand across Europe. It wasn't considered the first at this point, but a follow up to the Roman Empire of the classical world; indeed Charlemagne was meant to be a new Roman leader. The Second Reich: The German Empire (1871 - 1918) The dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire, combined with a growing feeling of German nationalism, led to repeated attempts at unifying the multitude of German territories, before a single state was created almost solely by the will of Otto von Bismarck , aided by the military skills of Moltke. Between 1862 and 1871 this great Prussian politician used a combination of persuasion, strategy, skill and outright warfare to create a German Empire dominated by Prussia, and ruled by the Kaiser (who had very little to do with the creation of the empire he would rule). This new state, the Kaiserreich, grew to dominate European politics at the close of the 19th, and start of the 20th, century. In 1918, after defeat in the Great War, a popular revolution forced the Kaiser into abdication and exile; a republic was then declared. This second German Empire was largely the opposite of the Holy Roman, despite having the Kaiser as a similar imperial figurehead: a centralised and authoritarian state which, after the dismissal of Bismarck in 1890, maintained an aggressive foreign policy. Bismarck was one of the geniuses of European history, in no small part because he knew when to stop. The Second Reich fell when it was ruled by people who didn't. The Third Reich: Nazi Germany (1933 - 1945) In 1933, President Paul von Hindenburg appointed Adolf Hitler as Chancellor of the German State, which at that point had been a democracy. Dictatorial powers and sweeping changes soon followed, as democracy disappeared and the count
Neoclassicism also influenced city planning; the ancient Romans had used a consolidated scheme for city planning for both defence and civil convenience, however, the roots of this scheme go back to even older civilizations. At its most basic, the grid system of streets, a central forum with city services, two main slightly wider boulevards, and the occasional diagonal street were characteristic of the very logical and orderly Roman design. Ancient façades and building layouts were oriented to these city design patterns and they tended to work in proportion with the importance of public buildings.

A cesarean section is the delivery of a baby through a cut (incision) in the mother's belly and uterus. It is often called a C-section. In most cases, a woman can be awake during the birth and be with her newborn soon afterward. See a picture of a delivery by C-section. If you are pregnant, chances are good that you will be able to deliver your baby through the birth canal (vaginal birth). But there are cases when a C-section is needed for the safety of the mother or baby. So even if you plan on a vaginal birth, it's a good idea to learn about C-section, in case the unexpected happens.
NASA OIG: NASA's Management of the Deep Space Network NASA OIG: NASA's Management of the Deep Space Network Status Report From: NASA Office of Inspector General Posted: Thursday, March 26, 2015Full report WHY WE PERFORMED THIS AUDITNASA's Deep Space Network (DSN or Network) is a central component of the Agency's space communications and navigation capability, providing deep space missions with tracking, telemetry, and command services needed to control spacecraft and transmit data. Part of NASA's Space Communications and Navigation (SCa N) Program, DSN operates antennas and transmitters at communications complexes in three locations: Goldstone, California; Madrid, Spain; and Canberra, Australia. NASA has contracts with the Spanish and Australian governments to manage day-to-day operations at the foreign sites and with the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), a federally funded research and development center in Pasadena, California, for the Goldstone site. During fiscal year (FY) 2014, DSN supported more than 30 missions including the launch and orbit insertions of NASA's Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolutio N Mission and the Indian Space Agency's Mars Orbiter Mission. Much of DSN's hardware is more than 30 years old, costly to maintain, and requires modernization and expansion to ensure continued service for existing and planned missions. Accordingly, in 2009 DSN management proposed an upgrade project to build new antennas and transmitters between 2009 and 2025. DSN has significant information technology (IT) and physical infrastructure components that it must protect against compromise from cyber attack, espionage, and terrorism. To this end, the JPL, Madrid, and Canberra agreements require each contractor to follow specified Federal and NASA security policies. We conducted this audit to examine whether DSN is positioned to meet current and future communication commitments and appropriately managing Network IT and physical security risks. We also considered whether NASA is effectively administering the contracts relating to the foreign sites. WHAT WE FOUNDAlthough DSN is meeting its current operational commitments, budget reductions have challenged the Network's ability to maintain these performance levels and threaten its future reliability. Specifically, in FY 2009 the Network implemented a plan to achieve $226.9 million in savings over 10 years and use most of that savings to build new antennas and transmitters. However, in FY 2013 the SCa N Program cut the Network's budget by $101.3 million, causing DSN to delay upgrades, close antennas, and cancel or re-plan tasks. In addition, SCa N officials are considering additional cuts for DSN in FY 2016 that could further delay maintenance and upgrade tasks. Finally, despite these reductions DSN has not revised life-cycle cost estimates for the upgrade project or performed a detailed funding profile beyond FY 2018, making it difficult to effectively plan and justify funding for the project and DSN's future commitments. If budget reductions continue, DSN faces an increased risk that it will be unable to meet future operational commitments or complete the upgrade project on schedule. We also found that NASA, JPL, and DSN have significantly deviated from Federal and Agency policies, standards, and governance methodologies for the security of the Network's IT and physical infrastructure. For example, the Network's system security categorization process did not consider all DSN mission functions, vulnerability identification and mitigation practices and IT security configuration baseline application did not comply with Federal and Agency policy, and NASA's Security Operations Center is not adequately integrated into JPL's computer network operations. Further, required physical security controls were missing or inconsistently implemented at the three Complexes, procedures to assign security level designations did not comply with NASA policy, required facility security assessments had not been completed, and security waivers or other risk acceptance documentation were not consistently in place. As a result, DSN's IT and physical infrastructure may be unnecessarily vulnerable to compromise. Finally, NASA has not required the Madrid contractor to provide detailed cost support for contract expenses on a timely basis or ensured the Defense Contract Audit Agency performs incurred cost audits of the Madrid and Canberra contracts on a routine basis. Consequently, NASA cannot ensure approximately $37 million in annual payments made to these contractors is allocable, allowable, and reasonable. WHAT WE RECOMMENDEDWe made 12 recommendations, including that NASA develop a realistic, accurate, and transparent budget that supports the Network's ability to provide communication services; ensure DSN follows established IT security policies, standards, and governance methodologies; develop a strategy for implementing evolving IT and physical security policies at JPL through means that minimize time-consuming negotiation of formal contract modifications; ensure physical security requirements are implemented consistently across the DSN Complexes; and improve oversight of DSN's foreign contracts. In response to a draft of our report, management concurred with our recommendations and described planned corrective actions. Because we consider the proposed actions responsive, the recommendations are resolved and we will close them upon verification of the completed actions.// end //More status reports and news releases or top stories .

Canadian Shield The Canadian Shield, also called the Laurentian Plateau, or Bouclier canadien (French), is a large area of exposed Precambrian igneous and high-grade metamorphic rocks (geological shield) that forms the ancient geological core of the North American continent (the North American Craton or Laurentia). Composed of igneous rock resulting from its long volcanic history, the area is covered by a thin layer of soil.[3] With a deep, common, joined bedrock region in eastern and central Canada, it stretches north from the Great Lakes to the Arctic Ocean, covering over half of Canada; it also extends south into the northern reaches of the United States. Human population is sparse, and industrial development is minimal,[4] while mining is prevalent.
Stock market crash On September 16, 2008, failures of massive financial institutions in the United States, due primarily to exposure to packaged subprime loans and credit default swaps issued to insure these loans and their issuers, rapidly devolved into a global crisis. This resulted in a number of bank failures in Europe and sharp reductions in the value of stocks and commodities worldwide. The failure of banks in Iceland resulted in a devaluation of the Icelandic króna and threatened the government with bankruptcy. Iceland obtained an emergency loan from the International Monetary Fund in November.[31] In the United States, 15 banks failed in 2008, while several others were rescued through government intervention or acquisitions by other banks.[32] On October 11, 2008, the head of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) warned that the world financial system was teetering on the "brink of systemic meltdown".[33]
Common Test For Bladder Infections Misses Too Many Cases Treatments Common Test For Bladder Infections Misses Too Many Cases November 14, 2013 12:25 PM ETNancy Shute Twitter Enlarge this image Urine tests are the gold standard for diagnosing bladder infections. But one common test, the urine culture, can easily miss infections. Ian Hooton/http://www.sciencesource.com/Most women know all too well the pain and discomfort of a urinary tract infection. They also know they'll probably have to trek to the doctor for a urine analysis so they can get a prescription for antibiotics. Surely there's got to be a better way. The first step for women with a history of urinary tract infections may be skipping a standard test isn't that good at spotting bladder infections anyway. "Fewer tests should be done," says Dr. Michael Donnenberg, a professor of medicine at The University of Maryland School of Medicine who wasn't involved in the study. "It's even a poorer test than we thought. "Urinary tract infections lead to 8 million doctor visits a year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. That adds up to plenty of expense and inconvenience that in many cases may not be worth the trouble. Doctors have two choices for urine tests: the dipstick test, which gives near-instant results and is useful for ruling out infection, and the urine culture. That is done in a lab and takes one to three days. The urine culture, formally called a midstream urine culture, accurately identified most women who had bladder infections with E. coli bacteria, which cause at least three-quarters of infections, the study found. But the test missed women who had infections with other bacteria, or had low levels of E. coli that were still enough to make the women sick. The Salt Studies Tie Human Bladder Infections To Antibiotics In Chicken Many labs ignore those low-level tests, says Dr. Thomas Hooten, a professor at the University of Miami School of Medicine who led the study. If doctors are going to do urine cultures they should at least insist that labs look for low levels of E. coli, Hooten says. He told Shots that he would say: "Look guys, low colony counts of E. coli are meaningful, don't discard those results. "The results were just published in the New England Journal of Medicine. The study involved 226 women, aged 18 to 49, and got samples both from the midstream test and by putting a catheter in the bladder. When comparing those samples, something strange showed up, surprising the doctors. About one-quarter of the women had no bacteria at all in the bladder, even though they had classic symptoms of infection. And quite a few of those women did have lots of bacteria in their midstream test. "We would have assumed that the reason you had high numbers in the midstream culture is because they had high numbers in the bladder," says Donnenberg, who wrote an editorial accompanying the study. Maybe those women have an infection of the urethra rather than the bladder, Donnenberg told Shots, or maybe there's something else going on that the doctors weren't aware of. The doctors really don't know. The Salt Cranberry Juice For Urinary Tract Infections? It Really Can Help"I don't know if they're benefiting from treatment because they really have bacterial urethritis, or if they're being exposed unnecessarily to antibiotics," Donnenberg says. OK, this is all very interesting, but how is it going to help a woman who thinks she probably has a UTI? Like, uh, right now? Unfortunately, doctors don't have a more accurate test to replace the urine culture. As a result, doctors have become increasingly comfortable with prescribing antibiotics without doing a urine culture, Donnenberg says, and this study supports doing that for healthy female patients. "If their physician doesn't do cultures, that should not make them uneasy. "Going for a urine culture is often a good idea the first time a woman has UTI symptoms, Donnenberg says, to make sure the symptoms aren't caused by the sexually transmitted diseases chlamydia or gonorrhea instead. "But once a woman knows it's a UTI because she's had a few, calling up the doctor and saying, 'I have another one, can I have a prescription?' is fine.

Yates Stirling Jr. After a leisurely cruise from Montevideo, Uruguay, Charleston arrived in San Francisco on 8 July 1894 to prepare for a return to the Asiatic Station. Promoted to ensign on 1 July 1894 upon his final graduation, Stirling next reported for duty on board USS New York on 16 August 1894. In 1896 and 1897, he served on the USS<i>Thetis and the Fish Commission steamer USS<i>Albatross. In 1898 and 1899 he was assigned to the USS<i>Badger.
King Arthur The first narrative account of Arthur's life is found in Geoffrey of Monmouth's Latin work Historia Regum Britanniae (History of the Kings of Britain), completed c. 1138.[56] This work is an imaginative and fanciful account of British kings from the legendary Trojan exile Brutus to the 7th-century Welsh king Cadwallader. Geoffrey places Arthur in the same post-Roman period as do Historia Brittonum and Annales Cambriae. He incorporates Arthur's father, Uther Pendragon, his magician advisor Merlin, and the story of Arthur's conception, in which Uther, disguised as his enemy Gorlois by Merlin's magic, sleeps with Gorlois's wife Igerna (Igraine) at Tintagel, and she conceives Arthur. On Uther's death, the fifteen-year-old Arthur succeeds him as King of Britain and fights a series of battles, similar to those in the Historia Brittonum, culminating in the Battle of Bath. He then defeats the Picts and Scots before creating an Arthurian empire through his conquests of Ireland, Iceland and the Orkney Islands. After twelve years of peace, Arthur sets out to expand his empire once more, taking control of Norway, Denmark and Gaul. Gaul is still held by the Roman Empire when it is conquered, and Arthur's victory naturally leads to a further confrontation between his empire and Rome's. Arthur and his warriors, including Kaius (Kay), Beduerus (Bedivere) and Gualguanus (Gawain), defeat the Roman emperor Lucius Tiberius in Gaul but, as he prepares to march on Rome, Arthur hears that his nephew Modredus (Mordred)—whom he had left in charge of Britain—has married his wife Guenhuuara (Guinevere) and seized the throne. Arthur returns to Britain and defeats and kills Modredus on the river Camblam in Cornwall, but he is mortally wounded. He hands the crown to his kinsman Constantine and is taken to the isle of Avalon to be healed of his wounds, never to be seen again.[57]
Save. Macadamia trees (Macadamia integrifolia) grow in warm, tropical and subtropical climates in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 9 through 11, with proper care. The trees produce fragrant light pink flowers in spring and early summer, and the glossy green leaves provide year-round interest. Mature macadamia trees can produce 30 to 50 pounds of nuts each year when grown properly.
The origins of the department store lay in the growth of the conspicuous consumer society at the turn of the 19th century. As the Industrial Revolution accelerated economy expansion, the affluent middle-class grew in size and wealth. This urbanized social group, sharing a culture of consumption and changing fashion, was the catalyst for the retail revolution. As rising prosperity and social mobility increased the number of people, especially women (who found they could shop unaccompanied at department stores without damaging their reputation), with disposable income in the late Georgian period, window shopping was transformed into a leisure activity and entrepreneurs, like the potter Josiah Wedgwood, pioneered the use of marketing techniques to influence the prevailing tastes and preferences of society.
Humans have shown extreme inventiveness in devising clothing solutions to environmental hazards. Examples include: space suits, air conditioned clothing, armor, diving suits, swimsuits, bee-keeper gear, motorcycle leathers, high-visibility clothing, and other pieces of protective clothing. Meanwhile, the distinction between clothing and protective equipment is not always clear-cut—since clothes designed to be fashionable often have protective value and clothes designed for function often consider fashion in their design. Wearing clothes also has social implications. They cover parts of the body that social norms require to be covered, act as a form of adornment, and serve other social purposes.
Monopoly \| Monopoly Wiki \| Fandom powered by Wikia [ show ] History The history of Monopoly can be traced back to the early 1900s. In 1904, a Quaker woman named Elizabeth (Lizzie) J. Magie Phillips created a game through which she hoped to be able to explain the single tax theory of Henry George (it was supposed to illustrate the negative aspects of concentrating land in private monopolies). Her game, The Landlord's Game, was commercially published a few years later. Other interested game players redeveloped the game and some made their own sets. Lizzie herself patented a revised edition of the game in 1904, and similar games were published commercially. By the early 1930s, a board game named Monopoly was created much like the version of Monopoly sold by Parker Brothers and its parent companies throughout the rest of the 20th century and into the 21st. The Parker Brothers' version was created by Charles Darrow . Several people, mostly in the U.S. Midwest and near the U.S. East Coast, contributed to the game's design and evolution. In 1941 the British Secret Service had John Waddington Ltd., the licensed manufacturer of the game outside the U.S., create a special edition for World War II prisoners of war held by the Nazis. Hidden inside these games were maps, compasses, real money, and other objects useful for escaping. They were distributed to prisoners by the International Red Cross. By the 1970s, the game's early history had been lost (and at least one historian has argued that it was purposely suppressed - see below), and the idea that it had been created solely by Charles Darrow had become popular folklore. This was stated in the 1974 book The Monopoly Book: Strategy and Tactics of the World's Most Popular Game, by Maxine Brady, and even in the instructions of the game itself. As Professor Ralph Anspach fought Parker Brothers and its then parent company, General Mills, over the trademarks of the Monopoly board game, much of the early history of the game was "rediscovered." Because of the lengthy court process, and appeals, the legal status of Parker Brothers' trademarks on the game was not settled until the mid-1980s. The game's name remains a registered trademark of Parker Brothers, as do its specific design elements. Parker Brothers' current corporate parent, Hasbro, again acknowledges only the role of Charles Darrow in the creation of the game. Anspach published a book about his research, called The Billion Dollar Monopoly Swindle (and republished as Monopolygate), in which he makes his case about the purposeful suppression of the game's early history and development. Board This is the original version produced by Charles Darrow, and later by Parker Brothers. The board consists of forty spaces containing twenty-eight properties, three Chance spaces, three Community Chest spaces, a Luxury Tax space, an Income Tax space, and the four corner squares: GO, Jail, Free Parking , and Go to Jail. In the U.S. versions shown below, the properties are named after locations in (or near) Atlantic City, New Jersey. However, as of September 2008, the layout of the board has been modified to more closely match the foreign-released versions, as shown in the two board layouts below. The notable changes are the colors of Mediterranean and Baltic Avenues changing from purple to brown, the colors of the GO square from red to black, and the adaptation of the flat $200 Income Tax (formerly the player's choice of 10% of their total holdings OR $200; players had to make a decision before calculating their total holdings) and increased $100 Luxury Tax (upped from $75) amounts. Similar color/amount changes are used in the U.S. Edition of the "Here And Now: World Edition" game , and are also used in the most recent version of the McDonald's Monopoly promotion. US Board ($60) US Info A player who reaches the Jail space by a direct roll of the dice is said to be "just visiting", and continues normal play on the next turn. Marvin Gardens , a yellow property on the board shown, is actually a misspelling of the original location name, Marven Garde
