does rutin thin the blood | BH Staff / March 15, 2013. . . . rutin in apples is a better blood-thinner than any medication. We have always maintained that food is our best medicine. There’s one catch, however: it has to be real food, not the phony “food-like substances” that pass for food in today’s supermarkets. Like quercetin, rutin is an antioxidant with anti-inflammatory and anti-allergy ability, and it increases intracellular levels of vitamin C.

how long do hard boiled eggs stay good for | Header image: CHOW. Hard-boiled eggs last about a week if they are kept in their shells, and should be refrigerated within two hours of cooking, says the USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service. | Hard-boiled eggs are best if used within a week. Do not freeze them. Even with its natural (but easily cracked) calcium-carbonate container, a hard-cooked egg is a perishable food, so it shouldn't be kept at room temperature for more than two hours. If kept in an unbroken shell and in the refrigerator about a week. | Interestingly, hard-boiled eggs do not keep nearly as long as raw eggs, which can last three to five weeks in the refrigerator. There is a good reason for this. When a hen lays an egg, it puts a naturally protective coating on the outside of the shell. | You can extend the answer to how long do hard boiled eggs last by storing them in your fridge (refrigerator) immediately after preparation or use. Once prepared, hard boiled eggs should be stored in a tightly closed container in the fridge to keep out moisture and other contaminants. | Refrigerate leftover hard-cooked eggs in the shell within two hours of cooking them and they should keep well for over one to one and a half weeks. It's best to place them in a container or plastic bag so they don't absorb refrigerator smells and flavors. |

mitochondrial theory definition | Mitochondrial theory of aging, a variant of free radical theory of aging, proposes that accumulation of damage to mitochondria and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) leads to aging of humans and animals. Mitochondrial theory of aging matures--roles of mtDNA mutation and oxidative stress in human aging. Wei YH(1), Ma YS, Lee HC, Lee CF, Lu CY. Author information: (1)Department of Biochemistry, National Yang-Ming University, Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C. [email protected]. | This information initiated the use of mitochondrial DNA to reconstruct family trees and eventually led to the Mitochondrial Eve Theory. Slide 5- Again, the Mitochondrial Eve Theory states that the mitochondrial DNA in all humans is inherited from one common female ancestor in Africa ~200,000 years ago. Slide 6 - There are several possible events that may have resulted in Mitochondrial Eve | A Brief Overview. You don’t have to be a scientist to appreciate the implications of the mitochondrial theory of aging. By definition it states that an age-related increase in oxidative stress contributes to cellular damage and can ultimately result in the death of a cell. Considering that each of us is made up of cells, the mitochondrial theory of aging is acutely relevant to all of us. On the other hand, aging mitochondria become more “productive” in a negative way: they start producing more oxidants. Fortunately, Dr. Ames’ discoveries and his subsequent development of Juvenon have dramatically impacted cellular health in our favor. | Symbiogenesis, or endosymbiotic theory, is an evolutionary theory that explains the origin of eukaryotic cells from prokaryotes. It states that several key organelles of eukaryotes originated as a symbiosis between separate single-celled organisms. The theory of symbiogenesis (Greek: σύν syn together, βίωσις biosis living, and γένεσις genesis origin or birth) theory were first articulated by the Russian botanist Konstantin Mereschowsky in 1910, although he described the fundamental elements of the theory were described in a paper five years earlier. | The mitochondrial theory of aging ties in closely with ideas about the role of free radicals in aging. In the mid-1950s, Denham Harman proposed that aging results from accumulated damage inflicted by free radicals – atoms or molecules possessed of a sole unpaired electron in their outer shells. To better understand the mitochondrial theory of aging, a little more background on mitochondria may be helpful. Mitochondria are rod-shaped, double-membraned cellular organelles around 0.5-10mM in length. |

what landforms are in the forest | What is a Forest Landform. There are way too many forests in the world to count. We can also say it is unfortunate that we are losing forests every day. There are a lot of different types of forests around the world such as rainforests, boreal, coniferous and deciduous. In general though, forest landforms are made up of a lot of trees in a general area. Some of the most famous forests in the world include the rainforests of Brazil and Olympic national forest of the great state of Washington. Both of these types grouping of trees are gorgeous in pictures and seen in person. Types of forest can also compete. Deciduous and coniferous forests compete often for land space by trying to outgrow the other for more sunlight. When speaking about landforms, a forest landform is one of the most exciting types to discuss in a conversation. | The Appalachian Mountains. Mountains are the most dominant land forms in the deciduous forest. In the Eastern North American deciduous forests, the Appalachian Mountain range runs over 15,000 miles. Of the mountains in the Appalachian Mountain range, Mt. Mitchell is the highest peak, standing 6,684 feet high. The deciduous forest has several water sources like rivers, streams, ponds, swamps, and lakes. The longest river running through the North American deciduous forest is the Missouri River (also the longest river in the US) which branches off into the Mississippi River. | The deciduous forest has many plants and animals, but where would they live if there was no different levels of land? That's where landforms come in. From the rivers to the mountains it is the perfect place for the plants and animals to live in. The soft, fertile soil is the ideal place for plants such as the The American Beech tree. The Deciduous Forest has many hills, mountians, an flat areas spread all throughout it. This helps the large animals prey on from on top of different inclines.

culture of poverty definition sociology | The culture of poverty is a social theory that expands on the cycle of poverty. It attracted academic and policy attention in the 1960s, survived harsh academic criticism (Goode and Eames, 1996; Bourgois, 2001; Small M.L., Harding D.J., Lamont M., 2010), and made a comeback at the beginning of the 21st century. People with a culture of poverty have very little sense of history. They are a marginal people who know only their own troubles, their own local conditions, their own neighborhood, their own way of life. | absolute poverty. (noun) A form of poverty that is the same regardless of country or culture and occurs when the resources required for minimum physical health are lacking, typically defined by limited access to food, clothing, and shelter. Audio Pronunciation: (ab·so·lute pov·er·ty). | By Ashley Crossman. Definition: Poverty is a condition in which people lack what they need to live; but the limits of “need to live” are a matter of definition. If poverty is defined in absolute terms (i.e. what people need to physically survive), it is relatively simple to define the point at which someone becomes poor. | Economist John Kenneth Galbraith (1979) claimed that the cultures of the Least Industrialized Nations hold them back. Building on the ideas of anthropologist Oscar Lewis, Galbraith argued that some nations are crippled by a culture of poverty, a way of life that perpetuates poverty from one generation to the next. Most of the world's poor people are farmers who live on little plots of land. They barely produce enough food to survive. | The Sociology of Poverty That there is a sociology of poverty is a considerable part of the problem of poverty research. That is, there is also an economics of poverty, a psychology of poverty, an anthropology of poverty, and a politics of poverty-- and all of these involve concrete histories. When these are torn asunder, we get research which too often not only does not illuminate poverty but serves to mystify it. |

what are flagella | A flagellum (/fləˈdʒɛləm/ ; plural: flagella) is a lash-like appendage that protrudes from the cell body of certain prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. The word flagellum in Latin means whip. An example of a eukaryotic flagellate cell is the mammalian sperm cell, which uses its flagellum to propel itself through the female reproductive tract. Eukaryotic flagella are structurally identical to eukaryotic cilia, although distinctions are sometimes made according to function and/or length. | The flagella of domains bacteria and archaea are different. They still move the cell, but they do so by rotating, rather than by bending from the inside like eukaryotic flagella. The flagella of archaeans are superficially similar to those of bacteria. However, there are key differences. Cilia are similar to flagella in structure and function, but a cilium is shorter and moves differently. A ciliated cell usually has hundreds or thousands of cilia, which move in unison like little oars. | Cilia, flagella, and centrioles. Cilia and flagella are projections from the cell. They are made up of microtubules, as shown in this cartoon and are covered by an extension of the plasma membrane. They are motile and designed either to move the cell itself or to move substances over or around the cell. | Yes A flagellum, also called undulipodium, is a whip-like structure used for locomotion, for feeding or other purposes. Almost all organisms have flagella to include protozo … a (at some stage in their lives). We humans have them in our bodies. Even our own spermatozoa can be regarded as flagellates. | The primary role of the flagellum is locomotion but it also often has function as a sensory organelle, being sensitive to chemicals and temperatures outside the cell. Flagella are organelles defined by function rather than structure. There are large differences between different types of flagella; the prokaryotic and eukaryotic flagella differ greatly in protein composition, structure, and mechanism of propulsion. An example of a eukaryotic flagellate cell is the mammalian sperm cell, which uses its flagellum to propel itself through the female reproductive tract. Eukaryotic flagella are structurally identical to eukaryotic cilia, although distinctions are sometimes made according to function and/or length. |
what are flagella | Flagella are long, thread-like appendages which provide some live single cells with the ability to move, motility. Bacteria which have flagella are either rod or spiral-shaped and are known as bacilli and spirochetes, respectively. Cocci, or round bacteria, are almost all nonmotile. Animal sperm cells also have flagella. However, prokaryotic cells (such as bacteria) have flagella made up of the protein flagellin. Whereas, eukaryotic cells (such as sperm) which have a nucleus have flagella composed of tubulin proteins. | A flagellum is a whip-like structure that allows a cell to move. They are found in all three domains of the living world: bacteria, archaea, and eukaryota, also known as protists, plants, animals, and fungi.

effects after surgery for pinched nerve | More aggressive treatments like epidural steroid injections and physical therapy also may be helpful for patients experiencing significant pain. It is important to keep in mind that these treatments do not always provide permanent relief, and, short of surgery, there is no cure for a pinched nerve. In cases where pain has become chronic or where damage is permanent, surgery may be recommended. Laser Spine Institute can perform pinched nerve surgery using advanced, minimally invasive techniques that come with far fewer side effects and a higher rate of success than traditional open back surgery. | Specifically in the spine, pinched nerves can be caused by a slipped or herniated disc, or spinal bone spurs. Pinched nerves are most common in areas of the body where the nerves have to pass through narrow passages such as the back, or neck. Symptoms of a pinched nerve can include any of the following: 1 Tingling or numbness in the extremities. 2 A burning sensation that can lead to intense pain. 3 Muscle spasm | Pinched median nerve. A pinched nerve occurs when too much pressure (compression) is applied to a nerve by surrounding tissues. In some cases, this tissue might be bone or cartilage, such as in the case of a herniated spinal disk that compresses a nerve root. This pressure causes inflammation of the nerve and disrupts the nerve's function. If a nerve is pinched for only a short time, there's usually no permanent damage. Once the pressure is relieved, nerve function returns to normal. However, if the pressure continues, chronic pain and permanent nerve damage can occur. | A pinched nerve is a nerve under pressure. This pressure often comes from surrounding bone or soft tissues. A nerve under enough pressure will lose its ability to carry accurate signals, and its wayward signals can cause a variety of sensations in the body. For example, when a nerve is pinched or compressed, it can trigger the nerve to falsely signal pain. | Pinched Nerve. Put a straw in your fist. Now squeeze. You’ll notice not much is able to pass through the straw. This is, essentially, what is happening in your spine when you have a pinched nerve. Your spinal cord or nerves (the straw) are being squeezed because of the impinging by bone/and or disc material. Decompression is a surgical procedure to relieve pressure and alleviate pain caused by this impingement. |
size of average block in philadelphia city | Philadelphia’s Center City blocks tend to average around 400 to 500 feet, giving pedestrians a substantial degree of freedom in their choice of routes between two points.

p type currents definition | The specific properties of a semiconductor depend on the impurities, or dopants, added to it. An N-type semiconductor carries current mainly in the form of negatively-charged electrons, in a manner similar to the conduction of current in a wire. A P-type semiconductor carries current predominantly as electron deficiencies called holes. A hole has a positive electric charge, equal and opposite to the charge on an electron. In a semiconductor material, the flow of holes occurs in a direction opposite to the flow of electrons. Part of the Electronics glossary: A semiconductor is a substance, usually a solid chemical element or compound, that can conduct electricity under some conditions but not others, making it a good medium for the control of electrical current. | Part of the Electronics glossary: Also see voltage, resistance, and Ohm's Law. Current is a flow of electrical charge carriers, usually electrons or electron-deficient atoms. The common symbol for current is the uppercase letter I. | In electronics, a diode is a two-terminal electronic component that conducts primarily in one direction (asymmetric conductance); it has low (ideally zero) resistance to the flow of current in one direction, and high (ideally infinite) resistance in the other. 1 For a bias less than the PIV, the reverse current is very small. 2 For a normal P–N rectifier diode, the reverse current through the device in the micro-ampere (µA) range. 3 However, this is temperature dependent, and at sufficiently high temperatures, a substantial amount of reverse current can be observed (mA or more). | The term intrinsic here distinguishes between the properties of pure intrinsic silicon and the dramatically different properties of doped n-type or p-type semiconductors. The conductivity of a semiconductor can be modeled in terms of the band theory of solids. | In reality the atoms are remaining fixed. in the lattice, but there is an illusion that the holes are physically moving. 2. DIODES A solid state diode consists of p-type and n-type semiconductors placed side by side. Diodes only allow electricity to flow in one direction through them. This is called an n-type semiconductor. Boron can also be used to dope a pure crystal of silicon. But since boron only offers 3 of the four electrons that a silicon atom needs, each silicon center is left with a hole. Semiconductors made in this manner are called p-type. |
what is a butterfly symbolic of? | Butterfly Symbolism, Butterfly Symbol Meaning. To many cultures the butterfly was a symbol of the soul, love, and rebirth.

In addition to the spiritual guidance we can receive through the metaphor of the butterfly, and by looking at it’s meaning as a power animal, when we see butterflies there is often even more than meets the eye. | The meaning of the Butterfly symbol signifies transformation as the ugly caterpillar changes into the beautiful butterfly. The butterfly is also believed to be a messenger from the spirit world. The message the butterfly brings depends their color. | But the butterfly is also a symbol of every Christian's hope of resurrection from the dead, so it is sometimes displayed at the memorials and funerals of believers as well. The butterfly symbol is seen especially around Easter, the Christian holiday that celebrates the resurrection of Christ. | Here are some popular and interesting butterfly meaning beliefs across the globe: 1 Native Americans-legend has it that if you have a secret wish all you have to do is capture a butterfly and whisper your desire into its antenna.

Currently Vietnam is the world's largest producer and exporter of pepper and producing 34% of the world's Piper nigrum crop as of 2008. | In some culinary circles, there is hot debate over which sort of pepper to use, white or black. Some chefs use white pepper strictly for aesthetic reasons: they use white pepper in white or light-colored dishes and sauces so there won’t be any black flecks. Other chefs find white pepper to be a more complex yet subtle flavor than that of black pepper, which can be pretty in-your-face. | That’s because black and white pepper are from the same fruit of the pepper vine. They both have bite, but black pepper is spicier and more flavorful with a earthy, citrusy taste, while white pepper is more sharp and can have a pungent smell. And white pepper is the ripe, dark red fruit, that has been soaked in water for up to two weeks until it ferments and the skin falls off, leaving only the white seed to be dried. After processing, both are referred to as peppercorns, which can be used in whole, cracked or ground form. |
When doing black and white photography, which file format should you use if possible | There is an exception to this rule; if you shoot in your cameras RAW format, you can use the black and white preset on your camera. When your shooting in RAW, your camera shows you its poor black and white conversion on your display, but the color information is still available. Don’t use it. This might sound a bit weird, but you can better shoot your black and white images in color. A good black and white image will require post processing and the standard in-camera black and white conversion isn’t have as good as your own black and white conversion. | 3.

False. 8. True. Use a high ISO. Shoot in black and white mode. Take pictures at midday. When photographing fireworks, it is important to watch that your horizons are even. | When you take a picture in RAW format and ask the camera to convet it to black and white it will do so just for display purposes on the camera's screen. However, the picture is still in RAW format which is as seen and therefore will always be in colour until you change the sttings of the picture using your computer. When shooting in RAW and switching to Black and White mode you see your results in the LCD in black and white but the camera actually records all of the information (including color) – the best of both worlds. But if you’re shooting in JPEG – shoot in color and do the conversion la | A good tip for digital SLR users is to shoot in the RAW format (which you should do for the best quality colour to black and white conversions anyway) but set the Picture Style (this is Canon's term-check your instruction manual if you have another brand of camera) to a black and white mode. Black and white is a very effective medium for landscape photography. It draws attention to the shapes and forms of the components within the landscape, and the quality of light. This photo, taken on the Bolivian altiplano, is reduced to a series of shapes and blocks of light and dark tones in black and white. | 4. ISO. In photography, an ISO number is an indication of the sensitivity of the image sensor, where a higher number indicates higher sensitivity. The higher the ISO is the more are the possibilities to take pictures in low light, without the usage of flash. For black and white photography, use the lowest ISO. When you use high ISO the noise will become more obvious. Noise in photography is like the “grain” in film, where the film doesn’t become as smooth as you’d wish. The higher your ISO is, the more unpleasant dots will show in your photo. |

A home funeral can be as inexpensive as the cost of pine for a coffin (for a backyard burial) or a few hundred dollars for cremation or several hundred dollars for cemetery costs. One family spent only $250 on a home burial. | If you are working with a funeral home to plan a funeral or memorial service, the cost of the funeral can be broken down into three main categories: the Basic Services Fee, the costs of any additional services or goods, and cash advances. | California Cremation Costs. The average cost of cremation is a fraction of funeral and burial costs in California, less than a quarter of the $10,000+ cost of an average funeral and burial.

what is a Scottish accent called | Most Scottish people speak with a Scottish accent. People from Scotland and people from England, for instance, can both speak English, but each speaks with a different accent, which tells the listener where we come from. Speaking Scots is not the same as speaking English with a Scottish accent. This is because speaking in Scots means using many words, sayings, turns of phrase, meanings and grammar, found only in Scots. To find out if you speak Scots you should take a moment to click on the map and listen to people speaking Scots. The name Scots is the national name for Scottish dialects sometimes also known as ‘Doric’, ‘Lallans’ and ‘Scotch’, or by more local names such as ‘Buchan’, ‘Dundonian’, ‘Glesca’ or ‘Shetland’. | The Scottish accent is a really fun accent. It is very simple to learn, but many will be impressed by it. Follow these steps to speak like an authentic Scottish Highlander. 1 Also, say things like dead bored or pure fuming.. 2 This accent is perfect for a prank call except if you are prank calling actual Scottish people. 3 Roll your 'R's or simply, pronounce the 'R' significantly. 4 Watch movies such as Trainspotting or Disney's Brave to familiarize yourself with the accent. | People from Northern Ireland have a Northern Ireland accent. People from Scotland have a Scottish accent. However a Glasgow-Scottish accent is different from an Edinburgh, Aberdeen, Inverness or Dundee accent. Just as New York is different from Chicago, New Orleons or San Francisco. That is not to say that the dublin accent is similar to the English accent. But it has about 400 years of speaking the English language to influence it. Whereas the 'bogger' accents formed when the people were speaking Gaelic. | Scottish English refers to the varieties of English spoken in Scotland.

what is your meniscus made of | There are two menisci in your knee; each rests between the thigh bone (femur) and shin bone (tibia). The menisci are made of tough cartilage and conform to the surfaces of the bones upon which they rest. One meniscus is on the inside of your knee; this is the medial meniscus. The other meniscus rests on the outside of your knee, the lateral meniscus. People often say 'cartilage' to mean the meniscus (the wedges of cartilage between the bone) or to mean the joint surface (so-called articular cartilage which caps the ends of the bone). When people talk about a cartilage tear, they a talking about a meniscus tear. | Meniscus tears are most commonly caused by trauma (athletic injuries) and the aging process (as we age our cartilage becomes brittle.) When the injury occurs in athletes, the patient typically describes a “popping” sensation in their knee when participating in a sporting event. Made up of cartilage, the wedges not only stabilize the knee, but also allow the joint to smoothly slide and move in many directions. When the meniscus is torn or damaged, you lose part that cushioning system; your weight is no longer applied evenly across your bones, so grinding and wearing occurs as bone meets bone. | The menisci-the medial meniscus and lateral meniscus-are crescent-shaped bands of thick, rubbery cartilage attached to the shinbone (tibia). They act as shock absorbers and stabilize the knee. The medial meniscus is on the inner side of the knee joint. The lateral meniscus is on the outside of the knee. Meniscus tears can vary widely in size and severity. A meniscus can be split in half, ripped around its circumference in the shape of a C or left hanging by a thread to the knee joint. | Both the covering of the bone within the joint and the meniscus are made of cartilage--this makes the issue a little confusing. People often say 'cartilage' to mean the meniscus (the wedges of cartilage between the bone) or to mean the joint surface (so-called articular cartilage which caps the ends of the bone). When people talk about a cartilage tear, they a talking about a meniscus tear. | In humans they are present in the knee, wrist, acromioclavicular, sternoclavicular, and temporomandibular joints; in other animals they may be present in other joints. Generally, the term 'meniscus' is used to refer to the cartilage of the knee, either to the lateral or medial meniscus. Both are cartilaginous tissues that provide structural integrity to the knee when it undergoes tension and torsion. Two surgeries of the meniscus are most common. Depending on the type and location of the tear, the patient's age, and physician's preference, injured menisci are usually either repaired or removed, in part or completely (meniscectomy). |
where does the word sociology derived | Since then, we have developed our tools and language skills to heighten our fondness for complaining about society. The word sociology (or sociologie) is derived from the Latin: socius, companion; and-ology, the study of, resulting in the study of companionship. This should not be construed as the study of prostitution, although many Sociologists have accidentally crossed that boundary, some of which are detailed later. | Most sociologists work in one or more specialties or subfields. The word sociology comes from the suffix -logy which means study of, derived from Greek, and the stem socio- which is from the Latin word socius, meaning member, friend, or ally, thus referring to people in general. | Best Answer: Sociology is the study of society and human social action. A sociologist studies the social rules and processes that organize people in society as individuals and as members of associations, groups, and institutions, as well as how these rules and processes develop. | Sociology's first belief (derived from Algebraic philosophy) is that for every bearded intellectual who expresses his opinion, there will always be another bearded intellectual who expresses the opposite.

psychology process of extinction | Extinction is the disappearance of a previously learned behavior when the behavior is not reinforced. In this lesson, learn more about extinction in operant conditioning and test your knowledge with a quiz. | Novel behaviours may also occur as a result of an extinction procedure being in place. A novel behaviour is a behaviour that the person would not have engaged in before while engaging in the targeted behaviour. Often these novel behaviour can be aggressive or more emotional (Miltenberger, 2008). | In the operant conditioning paradigm, extinction refers to the process of no longer providing the reinforcement that has been maintaining a behavior. Operant extinction differs from forgetting in that the latter refers to a decrease in the strength of a behavior over time when it has not been emitted. | Extinction is observed in both operantly conditioned and classically conditioned behavior. When operant behavior that has been previously reinforced no longer produces reinforcing consequences the behavior gradually stops occurring. | Thus, even if we do not have a handle on the psychological process that is affected during extinction, we can assess the efficacy of an extinction treatment by examining the development and persistence of response loss. |

why is kidney bean skin tough | up vote 20 down vote accepted. Soften. Other things that typically are added with salt will tend to toughen the beans, but it isn't the fault of the salt. For decades, chefs have circulated the oral tradition that adding salt hardens beans, but it's a myth. In short: salt replaces calcium and magnesium in the beans' skins that make them tougher. The result is that when beans are soaked in salt water the skin softens at the same rate as the bean interior and the beans do not blow out. | 1 Pour off all the water from the beans when they are done soaking. 2 Do not use this water to cook the beans. 3 Pouring off the soaking water will help eliminate some of the indigestible complex sugars that cause flatulence (gasiness). 4 Place the beans in a strainer and rinse with cool water before cooking. 1 After the beans have been cleaned, place them in a large pot and cover with 2 to 3 times the volume of cool water. 2 Over medium high heat bring the water to a boil. 3 Boil for 2 minutes and then remove from the heat. 4 Cover the pot and allow beans to stand for 1 hour. | 1 Do not use this water to cook the beans. 2 Pouring off the soaking water will help eliminate some of the indigestible complex sugars that cause flatulence (gasiness). 3 Place the beans in a strainer and rinse with cool water before cooking. 1 After the beans have been cleaned, place them in a large pot and cover with 2 to 3 times the volume of cool water. 2 Over medium high heat bring the water to a boil. 3 Boil for 2 minutes and then remove from the heat. 4 Cover the pot and allow beans to stand for 1 hour. | 1. Beans should be soaked before cooking, and the water should be thrown out. How long to soak depends on the bean. An ideal soaking time for black beans and kidney beans might be about 24 hours, with a change of water somewhere in there, while with lentils or dried peas, somewhere around 10 hours should suffice. | The “Long Soak” method is the most common way to soak your beaners. Just put your beans in a large bowl or pot of water and let them sit submerged for 8-12 hours. Soaking actually begins bean germination and promotes enzyme release. The germination process is what breaks down all the complex bean sugars. Soaking helps to break down all the complex sugars in beans, sugars like the indigestible oligosaccharides. If you’re a very breezy type, you should soak the beans even longer to maximize the amount of sugar dissolved. Ohhh, yea, and please drain the soaking water. |

estimate cost of building an extension to a home | Most builders can give you an idea of what your extension will cost per square foot or metre. For example, a basic single storey extension would typically cost around £1,000 per square metre but it could be up to £1,600 or more for a premium two storey extension. | You may have heard that the rule of thumb is £1,000 per m2. However, this figure has been bandied about for rather a long time now! From experience, £1,200 per m2 is a now a more realistic estimate for a house extension cost in 2015 and reflects price increases over the last few years. So, for your 4 x 5m extension, the build cost would be roughly £24,000. As a rule of thumb you can add 50% extra to the build cost of a single storey extension. So, £24,000 +50% = £36,000. + Add on 10-15% for professional fees (architect, planning application, building regs, structural engineer). + VAT. | This tool is to assist you in estimating the approximate budget cost for building work on your home. It is important to know the proposed floor area of the new extension and also the floor area of associated renovation works together with other works in the remainder of the house. | Hans Hansen/Lifesize/Getty Images. Building an extension to your home is a costly project that can easily lead to budget-busting overruns. To avoid this, calculating an accurate cost for the extension beforehand is vital. This is especially true for a DIY builder intending to save money by cutting out the labor and contractor costs. Call various building supply companies in your area and get an estimate of costs for the supplies, including the cost to deliver the supplies to your building site. Note the average cost of supplies for your calculations. Make a list of the tools you'll need to buy or rent to complete the project yourself. | In most cases, when you are extending your home you will be able to keep all the original cladding on your house and simply add the same style of cladding to your addition so it blends in perfectly. Painting the exterior of an average sized, single-storey house with a one-room extension is likely to cost around $15,000. A same level house extension in New Zealand will cost approximately $60,000 to $200,000+. Adding a room or extending your living area on the ground floor are affordable ways of creating more space. Here are some key points to consider that will help you keep your renovation costs in check |
why is RTI effective in schools | Finally, because the best intervention is prevention, the effective RTI school would use universal screening data to identify students lacking the prerequisite skills for an essential standard and then provide targeted Tier 2 or Tier 3 support before delivering core instruction on that standard. Like obedient soldiers, site educators take their RTI marching orders and begin to complete the items on their RTI to-do list, such as administering a universal screening assessment, regrouping students in tiered groups, or creating a tutorial period. Such an approach is fraught with pitfalls. | The problem-solving process occurs within each tier of the pyramid. The third essential component of RTI is the use of an integrated data-collection/assessment system to inform decisions at each tier of the pyramid. This component helps determine a student’s response to instruction and intervention. The overarching format for these assessments is curriculum-based assessment. This approach is not about placing the problems within the student, but rather examining the student’s response to instruction and/or intervention. In essence, RTI expands the practice of looking at students’ risk of learning and behavioral failure beyond the student and takes into consideration a host of factors. | In RtI, the problem solving method is used to match instructional resources to educational need. The problem solving method is used at all three tiers: for all students (Tier 1), for groups of students (Tier 2), and for individual or small groups of students (Tier 3). RtI involves an education process that matches instructional and intervention strategies and supports to student needs in an informed, ongoing approach for planning, implementing, and evaluating the effectiveness of instruction, curricular supports, and interventions. | Our New Look. The American Institutes for Research (AIR) ran the National Center on Response to Intervention (NCRTI) from 2007-2012 with a grant from the Office of Special Education Programs. When the Center’s federal funding ended in 2012, AIR took over upkeep and maintenance of the Center’s website and products. | What is at the heart of RtI? The purpose of RtI is to provide all students with the best opportunities to succeed in school, identify students with learning or behavioral problems, and ensure that they receive appropriate instruction and related supports. While RtI required a student to be compared to grade level peers, information as to how rapidly a student is progressing in a below grade level intervention will help the problem-solving team determine a reasonable and realistic period of time before the student may be expected to achieve grade-level proficiency. |
what is a retarder | A retarder is a device used to augment or replace some of the functions of primary friction-based braking systems, usually on heavy vehicles. Retarders serve to slow vehicles, or maintain a steady speed on declines, and help prevent the vehicle from running away by accelerating down the decline. They are not usually capable of bringing vehicles to a standstill, as their effectiveness diminishes as vehicle speed lowers. They are usually used as an additional assistance to slow vehicles, with the final braking done by a conventional friction braking system. As the friction brake will be used less, particularly at higher speeds, their service life is increased. | In contrast, eddy current retarder brakes comprise a distinct and purpose built static armature and rotor that are explicitly made and added to a vehicle for braking and dissipation of heat and not for motive power; it is a purpose built system distinct from the motor. They are usually used as an additional assistance to slow vehicles, with the final braking done by a conventional friction braking system. As the friction brake will be used less, particularly at higher speeds, their service life is increased. | Allison’s hydraulic retarder is basically a vaned flywheelin the transmission housing. The transmission directs oilinto the retarder housing to absorb the vehicle’s energythrough the drive shaft.The absorbed energy isconverted to heat and dissipated through the vehicle’scooling system. | Retarders. Cement setting times can be adjusted with retarders. Cement retarders control the time when a slurry will set hard, keeping the slurry viscous and pumpable in expected wellbore temperatures and for the amount of time required to place the slurry. Retarders decrease the rate of cement hydration, acting in a manner opposite to that of accelerators. HR®-7 Cement Retarder. A sodium lignosulfonate used as a retarder and dispersant in all classes of cement and Pozmix® cement at temperatures ranging from 110°F (43.3°C) up to 170°F (76.7°C), as a secondary effect HR-7 retarder can decrease air entrainment and help control fluid loss. | Water reducers, retarders, and superplasticizers are admixtures for concrete, which are added in order to reduce the water content in a mixture or to slow the setting rate of the concrete while retaining the flowing properties of a concrete mixture. |

where is the deltoid quizlet | The deltoid is attached by tendons to the skeleton at the clavicle (collarbone), scapula (shoulder blade), and humerus (upper arm bone). The deltoid is widest at the top of the shoulder and narrows to its apex as it travels down the arm. Contraction of the deltoid muscle results in a wide range of movement of the arm at the shoulder due to its location and the wide separation of its muscle fibers.... The deltoid muscle is a rounded, triangular muscle located on the uppermost part of the arm and the top of the shoulder. | This muscle is large, heavy and strong. Most of your chest is formed and shaped by the pectoralis major muscle. There are two such muscles, on either side of the chest. It begins at the clavicle, sternum and ribs and stretches to the upper arm bone that connects the elbow to the shoulder, which is also known as humerus. The pectoralis major muscles help you to move your shoulders, shoulder joints, to move or raise your arm and all motions of the upper arm. These muscles also facilitate breathing. The pectoralis major muscles are among the strongest in the human body. | SHARE SHARE TWEET EMAIL. The deltoid is the large muscle that covers your shoulder joint. The muscle consists of three fiber groups: the anterior, lateral and posterior deltoids. The anterior deltoid, also known as the front delt, connects the collarbone to the humerus, the large bone of the upper arm. Along with other muscles of the shoulder, the anterior deltoid stabilizes the shoulder joint and aids in specific forward and rotational movements of the arm | Shoulder Muscles and Shoulder Tendons. Muscles in the back, neck, shoulder, chest and upper arm all work together to support and move the shoulder. One of the most important is the deltoid. Tendons are elastic, soft, connective tissue structures that attach muscles to bone. Muscles move the bones by pulling on the tendons. The shoulder is not a single joint, but a complex arrangement of bones, ligaments, muscles, and tendons that is better called the shoulder girdle. The primary function of the shoulder girdle is to give strength and range of motion to the arm. The shoulder girdle includes three bones—the scapula, clavicle and humerus. | The shoulder girdle or pectoral girdle is the set of bones which connects the upper limb to the axial skeleton on each side. In humans it consists of the clavicle and scapula; in those species with three bones in the shoulder, it consists of the clavicle, scapula, and coracoid. The shoulder girdle consists of five muscles that attach to the clavicle and scapula and allow for the motion of the sternoclavicular joint (connection between sternum and clavicle) and acromioclavicular joint (connection between clavicle and scapula). |

The meat should still be good. A good rule of thumb is on chicken and turkey or store bought cook within 2 months because they already keep it too long. I have had chicken in the freezer for over a year and it not even show any freezer burn. | Beef. Beef in particular freezes well and will last quite a while without sacrificing flavor. Just how long it can be frozen depends on the individual cut and size of the beef. For example, roasts last the longest, up to 12 months when properly wrapped.

is beartic good | Answers. Best Answer: Beartic isn't that great of a Pokemon in my opinion...there isn't much use for an ice type in black/white. I would use either Excadrill or Galvantula, both of which are good attackers. Galvantula (or even its pre-evolution Joltik) can take down the 6th gym alone. You can find Excadrill or its pre-evolution in swirling dust spots in most caves, and you can find Galvantula's pre-evolution Joltik in Chargestone Cave. | ●Dive(more coverage). This is the moveset that I use for my Beartic and it has been pretty much invincible. however a swift Fire or Fighting type is dangerous against him(for example Infernape or Heracross)so pay attention as no good moveset can overcome all of his weaknesses. | Biology. Beartic is an ursine, quadruped creature capable of standing on its hind legs. It has bluish white fur with a shaggy tuft at its rear. Three spikes of ice hang from its lower jaw, forming a beard. Its face consists of a long snout, beady black eyes, and rounded ears. Its large forepaws have black claws and paw pads. | Overview. Despite being the strongest physical Ice-type in the tier, Beartic has trouble distinguishing itself from Piloswine. Beartic has good natural bulk, but Ice is a horrible defensive typing and gives it many weaknesses, including one to Stealth Rock. Outside of the rain, Beartic is too slow to sweep through teams. It also has trouble dealing enough damage to threaten dangerous Pokemon such as Ludicolo, Gurdurr, and Samurott | Beartic, The Freezing Pok mon. It can make its breath freeze at will. Very able in the water, it swims around in northern seas and catches prey.It freezes its breath to create fangs and claws of ice to fight with. Cold northern areas are its habitat. They love the cold seas of the north. Alomomola is probably the best option, as it takes little damage from Beartic's attacks and can stall it out with Scald, possibly conferring a burn. Fighting pokemon like Sawk have the advantage as they are not OHKO'd by Beartic and can OHKO in return. |
the three chemical differences between dna and rna | 1. In organisms, DNA is generally found as double-stranded, and RNA as single-stranded. 2. DNA has the deoxyribose pentose sugar, and RNA has the ribose pentose sugar. 3. DNA has thymine; RNA has uracil. This is the biggest difference between DNA and RNA. 3. Nitrogen Bases of DNA: Adenine Guanine Cytosine Thymine NItrogent bases of RNA: Adenine Guanine Cytosine Uracil. | 2. The sugar in DNA is deoxyribose. The sugar in RNA is ribose, the same as deoxyribose but with one more OH (oxygen-hydrogen atom combination called a hydroxyl). This is the biggest difference between DNA and RNA. 3. Nitrogen Bases of DNA: Adenine Guanine Cytosine Thymine NItrogent bases of RNA: Adenine Guanine Cytosine Uracil. | DNA is usually double stranded and most cellular RNA is single stranded. 1)In DNA the pentose sugar is deoxyribose.Whereas in RNA the pentose sugar is ribose. 2)In DNA the common organic bases are adenine,guanine,cytosine and thymine.Whereas in RNA the common organic bases are adenine,guanine,cytosine and uracil. RNA contains ribose, while DNA contains deoxyribose, a similar sugar that contains one fewer oxygen molecule (de...oxy). Another difference is that DNA is double-stranded, while RNA is a single strand. Three of the nitrogenous bases are the same in the two types (adenine, cytosine, and guanine), but DNA contains thymine while RNA contains uracil. There are also functional differences. DNA is the blueprint for all proteins formed by the cells | One of the major differences between DNA and RNA is the sugar, with 2-deoxyribose being replaced by the alternative pentose sugar ribose in RNA. The four bases found in DNA are adenine (abbreviated A), cytosine (C), guanine (G) and thymine (T). | 1 DNA contains the sugar deoxyribose, while RNA contains the sugar ribose. 2 The only difference between ribose and deoxyribose is that ribose has one more-OH group than deoxyribose, which has-H attached to the second (2') carbon in the ring. Although DNA and RNA both carry genetic information, there are quite a few differences between them. This is a comparison of the differences between DNA versus RNA, including a quick summary and a detailed table of the differences. |

what is plc example | A Programmable Logic Controller, or PLC for short, is simply a special computer device used for industrial control systems. They are used in many industries such as oil refineries, manufacturing lines, conveyor systems and so on. In these modern times a PC with specially dedicated software from the PLC manufacturer is used to program a PLC. The most widely used form of programming is called ladder logic. Ladder logic uses symbols, instead of words, to emulate the real world relay logic control, which is a relic from the PLC's history. | Ladder logic has evolved into a programming language that represents a program by a graphical diagram based on the circuit diagrams of relay logic hardware. Ladder logic is used to develop software for programmable logic controllers (PLCs) used in industrial control applications. The name is based on the observation that programs in this language resemble ladders, with two vertical rails and a series of horizontal rungs between them | The following are some of the commonly used languages used to program a PLC: 1 Ladder Diagram (LD): The traditional ladder logic is a graphical programming language. 2 Statement List (STL): A high level text language that uses structured programming.

what vitamin is considered nonessential | Just about all vitamins are in fact considered essential nutrients. The body, however, does produce some in some interesting ways. Vitamin D is produced from exposure to ultraviolet rays from the sun and is important for bone health and calcium absorption. Unlike what the names may lead you to believe, both essential and non essential nutrients are needed by the body. The difference between the two are the process in which they are obtained. With essential nutrients, the needed vitamins and minerals must be supplemented because they are not made naturally | * B-Complex co-factor PABA (para-aminobenzoic acid). * Bioflavonoids which work with vitamin C. Certain amino acids found in protein are considered nonessential accessory nutrients because they can be synthesized by the body from the essential amino acids. There are many nonessential nutrients that work in harmony with the essential nutrients to aid in the breakdown and conversion of food into cellular energy, and help to support all of the body's physical and mental functions. | From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. An essential nutrient is a nutrient required for normal human body function that either cannot be synthesized by the body at all, or cannot be synthesized in amounts adequate for good health (e.g., niacin, choline), and thus must be obtained from a dietary source. | Nearly all nutrients that are classified as vitamins are obtained through dietary means, which is indicative of the term essential, because the body cannot synthesize these compounds. There are only a few vitamins that are considered nonessential because the body is capable of synthesizing these nutrients. Vitamins are biological nutrients that are required for a number of cellular and tissue-specific processes in your body. Vitamins are primarily attained from your dietary intake, with different vitamins originating from different types of food sources. | Good sources of complex carbohydrates include whole grains, vegetables and fruits.

what is huipil | Huipil [ˈwipil] (from the Nahuatl word huīpīlli [wiːˈpiːlːi]) is the most common traditional garment worn by indigenous women from central Mexico to Central America. The huipil endures in many indigenous communities, if not as an everyday garment, as one for ceremonies or special occasions. When a woman puts on a huipil, especially a ceremonial or very traditional one, it is a kind of ritual. She becomes the center of a symbolic world as her head passes through the neck opening. | What is a Huipil. Humble Hilo incorporates intricate and culturally rich Guatemalan textiles into our products, while also creating job opportunities for impoverished Maya families. The materials we use in our products are literally pieces of art and deeply entrenched in the Guatemalan culture. Above is one of the women employed by Humble Hilo-it typically takes her 3-4 months to create a traditional huipil top! She has memorized thousands of patterns, calling this, mi don (my gift). | Share this: Tweet. Known for its fascinating patterns and vibrant colors, a Huipil (pronounced wee-peel) is an embroidered blouse worn by indigenous women in Guatemala. To complete the traje, they often combine Huipil with a corte, a traditional, long Mayan skirt, which they weave on a hand loom. To secure the corte, they wear a faja (belt). Generally handwoven and embroidered, a faja can range anywhere from 6 to 9 feet long and vary in complexity. | Origin of HUIPIL. Mexican Spanish, from Nahuatl huipilli. This word doesn't usually appear in our free dictionary, but the definition from our premium Unabridged Dictionary is offered here on a limited basis. Note that some information is displayed differently in the Unabridged. | Lengths of the huipil can vary from a short blouse-like garment or long enough to reach the floor.

what medication is used for rosacea | Topical metronidazole is commonly used as a first-line agent. Topical azelaic acid, sulfacetamide products, and topical acne medications are also commonly used. Topical and oral antibiotics are also very effective, and for oral rosacea, they are usually considered as a first-line therapy. Retinoids are advocated by some authorities. A topical form of the alpha-2 agonist brimonidine was approved by the FDA in August 2013 for treatment of erythema associated with rosacea. | If your symptoms are more severe, an oral antibiotic medication may be recommended as these can help reduce inflammation of the skin. Antibiotics often used to treat rosacea include tetracycline, oxytetracycline, doxycycline and erythromycin. These medications are usually taken for four to six weeks, but longer courses may be necessary if the spots are persistent. Common side effects of these medications include: 1 feeling and being sick. 2 diarrhoea. | Treatments for rosacea. Rosacea is a common skin condition causing flushing, redness, red pimples and pustules on the face, and should not be confused with acne.

what is a cantilever beam | A cantilever is a beam supported on only one end. The beam transfers the load to the support where it has manage the moment of force and shear stress. Moment of force is the tendency of a force to twist or rotate an object. Shear stress is defined as a stress which is applied parallel to the face of a material. The formula for the maximum stress a cantilever beam can tolerate is given by. 1 σ max = (M max) * (y) / (I), Where M max is the maximum moment (which is equal to M 1 + M 2), y is the distance from the center to the outer edge, and I is the area of the cross-section of the beam. | can·ti·le·ver. n. 1. A projecting structure, such as a beam, that is supported at one end and carries a load at the other end or along its length. 2. A member, such as a beam, that projects beyond a fulcrum and is supported by a balancing member or a downward force behind the fulcrum. 3. A bracket or block supporting a balcony or cornice. | A schematic image of three types of cantilever. The top example has a full moment connection (like a horizontal flag pole bolted to the side of a building). The middle example is created by an extension of a simple supported beam (such as the way a diving-board is anchored and extends over the edge of a swimming pool). The second is the formula relating the cantilever spring constant to the cantilever dimensions and material constants: where is force and is the cantilever width. The spring constant is related to the cantilever resonance frequency by the usual harmonic oscillator formula. | A cantilever is a rigid structural element, such as a beam or a plate, anchored at only one end to a (usually vertical) support from which it is protruding. The second is the formula relating the cantilever spring constant to the cantilever dimensions and material constants: where is force and is the cantilever width. The spring constant is related to the cantilever resonance frequency by the usual harmonic oscillator formula. | The most common current wing design is the cantilever. A single large beam, called the main spar, runs through the wing, typically nearer the leading edge at about 25 percent of the total chord. In flight, the wings generate lift, and the wing spars are designed to carry this load through the fuselage to the other wing. The second is the formula relating the cantilever spring constant to the cantilever dimensions and material constants: where is force and is the cantilever width. The spring constant is related to the cantilever resonance frequency by the usual harmonic oscillator formula. |
why inflation can be harmful to an economy | Inflation is also very harmful to any economy because the people living in that economy might not survive the situation and this is when you see that an economy is affected and if nothing is done to it, it can cause an economy to collapse. This is not really good in the sense that it shows the economy is stagnant/not growing. This may turn a … way the investors. Mild inflation is basically low rate of inflation around 2% to 3%. Mild inflation shows that an economy is stable and indicates economic growth. | Second, deflation raises the inflation-adjusted interest rate, and that can cause consumers to spend less on durables like cars, appliances and houses that are purchased with credit. Rising inflation-adjusted interest rates also increase the cost of borrowing and can depress business investment. Finally, it's important to note that outright deflation isn't required for these problems to emerge. Disinflation -- when inflation rates are above zero but declining -- can also be troublesome. Central bankers have an aversion to inflation. Indeed, it seems to be a requirement for the job. | Price inflation occurs when average prices are rising above this low and predictable rate, and price deflation occurs when average prices are falling. In both cases, the effects are potentially extremely harmful to a country’s economic performance and to the welfare of its citizens. | Too much inflation will ruin the economy but small levels of inflation will spur growth. Inflation is very harmful to any economy because it can ruin the economy's development and growth and this is not suppose to be. This is not really good in the sense that it shows the economy is stagnant/not growing. This may turn a … way the investors. Mild inflation is basically low rate of inflation around 2% to 3%. Mild inflation shows that an economy is stable and indicates economic growth. | Finally, inflation is a sign that an economy is growing. In some situations, little inflation (or even deflation) can be just as bad as high inflation. The lack of inflation may be an indication that the economy is weakening. Inflation is defined as a sustained increase in the general level of prices for goods and services. It is measured as an annual percentage increase. As inflation rises, every dollar you own buys a smaller percentage of a good or service. |

does a smear test detect ovarian cancer | Pap smear tests, which screen for cervical cancer, may help identify ovarian and uterine cancer as well, a new study suggests. That's because the cervical fluid collected during a Pap smear can contain cells, including cancer cells, that have been shed from theovaries or endometrium (the lining of the uterus). During the study, researchers developed a test to look for genetic markers of ovarian and endometrial cancers that were present in the cervical fluid. (The new test requires cervical fluid from a Pap smear, but analyzes it in a different way than does the test for cervical cancer.). | No. A Pap test can't reliably detect ovarian cancer. A Pap test is a procedure that involves collecting cells from your cervix and examining them under a microscope. A Pap test can detect cervical cancer and changes in your cervical cells that may increase your risk of cervical cancer in the future. Very rarely, ovarian cancer cells can be detected during a Pap test. If the ovarian cancer cells travel away from your ovaries through your fallopian tubes and uterus to the area around your cervix, the ovarian cancer cells could be collected during a Pap test. But this is rare, so the Pap test isn't a reliable test for ovarian cancer. | A pap smear only detects abnormalities of the cervix (cervical cancer/precancerous cells, HPV). A pelvic exam includes a pap smear, but the GYN also can feel the shape and size of the ovaries by placing one or two fingers in the vagina and putting their other hand on top of your abdomen. Best Answer: A pap smear checks for certical cancer or HPV. At the same time a pap smear is done, the doc will do a pelvic exam. If they feel anything abnormal like a cyst, they will do further testing. | About 20% of ovarian cancers are found at an early stage. When ovarian cancer is found early at a localized stage, about 94% of patients live longer than 5 years after diagnosis. Several large studies are in progress to learn the best ways to find ovarian cancer in its earliest stage. By the time ovarian cancer is considered as a possible cause of these symptoms, it usually has already spread beyond the ovaries. Also, some types of ovarian cancer can rapidly spread to the surface of nearby organs. Still, prompt attention to symptoms may improve the odds of early diagnosis and successful treatment. | Preliminary research suggests that the Pap smear can help doctors test for other gynecologic cancers besides cervical cancer, including ovarian and endometrial (uterine) cancers. Researchers are looking at more sophisticated methods of analyzing samples obtained from routine Pap smears. |

what is intracellular replication | Abstract. Viruses are intracellular parasites that use the host cell they infect to produce new infectious progeny. Distinct steps of the virus life cycle occur in association with the cytoskeleton or cytoplasmic membranes, which are often modified during infection. Plus-stranded RNA viruses induce membrane proliferations that support the replication of their genomes. | Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites, which means they have to live inside of a host and steal hosts enzymes to allow replication, like when aliens inhabit the bodies of politicians and run for office… it happens. That being said, some viruses, including influenza, enter and replicate in the nucleus because they require splicing enzymes for replication. Virus replication usually occurs in two stages: early and late. These two stages are defined by the types of viral proteins made in each stage. | Although the molecular details in the uptake mechanism differ among intracellular bacteria, the first event following the specific interaction between the bacterial cell and the host cell is always the formation of a primary phagosome. All of the bacteria possessing the ability to escape from the phagocytic vacuole described above will efficiently replicate in the host cell cytosol, regardless of whether the host cells are phagocytes or non-phagocytic cells. | it is inhaled from livestock and pets, its virulence is intracellular replication, resistance of lysosomal degradation & formation of immune complexes in chronic disease. acute symptoms include 20d incubation, sudden onset of headache, chills, mild respir, 50% have hepatosplenomelagy.
