To be fair, if you take a loss on a securities trade, the IRS lets you write that amount off on your taxes, at least to the maximum allowed by law. You can also deduct a number of investment-related expenses when you file your federal income tax return, but commissions in of themselves are not one of them. Nondeductible Whether you use a full-service investments broker, a discount broker or an online firm that lets you trade stocks with the click of a mouse, you are probably paying a commission on every trade. You typically pay a commission when you buy, and you pay another commission when you sell. The IRS does not consider investment commissions to be a tax-deductible expense. Instead, the commission becomes part of the investment's cost basis, which still provides you with some tax relief.

His answer may indicate whether you need the advice of someone else. ( Getty Images)During meetings with a financial advisor, it’s common for the advisor to ask most of the questions: “Has anything changed since we last met? Are you comfortable with our investing process?” But you may have some questions of your own that might not relate to your investments, but you’re curious about nonetheless. Here are five questions you’ve always wanted to ask your financial advisor – and probably should.1. How many clients do you have? The typical financial advisor served 156 households last year, according to a December 2013 report by Price Metrix, which provides software and services for wealth management firms.

Understanding the rules that govern this deduction is the key to maximizing your tax savings and making the most out of those miscellaneous tax deductions that taxpayers are so often unable to write off. Here’s what you need to do to cash in on what your advisor is charging you. Miscellaneous Expenses The first condition that taxpayers who deduct investment expenses must meet is that they must be able to itemize their deductions. This means that certain named expenses that are listed on Schedule A of the Form 1040 can be deducted if they exceed the standard deduction that is allotted to each filer according to their filing status. Taxpayers who are unable to itemize deductions are completely unable to deduct investment expenses for themselves. Those who can must meet a second condition. There is a category of itemized deductions known as miscellaneous deductions that cover a variety of legal and financial fees relating to investments that generate taxable income. These deductions include: (For more, see: An Overview of Itemized Deductions . ) Professional management fees for taxable investment accounts (fees paid to robo-advisors count for this)." }, { "docid": "D2680711#0", "title": "http://www.advisor.ca/tax/tax-news/investment-management-fees-whats-deductible-and-what-isnt-2748\nInvestment fees â whatâs deductible?", "text": "[ Editor’s note: This is an updated version of an article that originally appeared in 2009. ] In light of recent global market volatility and its impact on clients’ portfolios, advisors are naturally investigating avenues to help investors mitigate losses while positioning their portfolios to benefit when the markets recover. One such avenue involves seeking out opportunities to help clients reduce the amount of tax they pay on their investment income. Consequently, the topic of the deductibility of investment management fees has become a popular, though not universally understood point of discussion among industry professionals. This column aims to help clear up some of the issues on the matter. Investors in mutual funds and wrap investment programs pay fees for investment advice and management services. The fees in either of these investment arrangements may be deducted for income tax purposes as a carrying charge. However, there are a number of important qualifications that must be kept in mind when considering each individual case. Exactly what kinds of investment management fees are deductible? Is there any advantage to claiming these fees through a wrap account rather than a mutual fund?" }, { "docid": "D3287998#0", "title": "https://www.realdata.com/ls/glossary.shtml\n.", "text": "\"Glossary of Real Estate Terms A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y ZAAbatement In a lease, the reduction or elimination of rent for a period of time.

The general rule in determining whether an investment expense is deductible is that the expense needs to be ordinary and necessary to produce or collect income, or in the management of property used to produce income. These expenses must be directly related to the income produced such as a trading program used to generate capital gains through stock trading. Furthermore, these expenses can't total more than 2% of your total annual gross income. Investment advice from an advisory service or consultant can be deducted as an investment expense as long as it is related to the production of taxable income. This can include a subscription to an investment newsletter or other similar service. However, investment-related seminars can't be deducted - so if you pay to attend an investment seminar, convention, or similar type of meeting, you won't be able to write off that expense. Therefore, it is unlikely that most investment courses are deductible. However, in some cases, a course may be eligible so it is important to consult the course facilitator or your accountant. Here is a quick summary of which investment-related expenses can and cannot be written off: Deductible: Investment advice Attorney and accounting fees Fees from automatic investment services and dividend reinvestment plans (DRIPs)Clerical help and office rent Cost of replacing missing securities Fees associated with the collection of income Safety deposit rent Not Deductible: Trading commissions Transfer taxes Tax-exempt income expenses Short-sale expenses For more on the deduction of investment expenses for tax purposes see the Investment Expenses section of IRS Publication 550: Investment Income And Expenses." }, { "docid": "D461112#0", "title": "http://www.vasin.com.au/faq/What_tax_deductions_can_I_claim_on_my_investment_property.html\n.", "text": "What tax deductions can I claim on my investment property?

Active business includes any business, as well as an adventure or concern in the nature of trade, but excludes: (i) a business that derives its income from property (including interest, dividends, royalties and rent) and has less than six full-time employees (i.e., a “specified investment business”); and (ii) a business that provides personal services through a corporation, has fewer than six full-time employees and where, were it not for the presence of the corporation, the individuals providing the services would be considered employees or officers of the entity using those services (a “personal services business”). As of January 1, 2016, the small business deduction provides for a 10.5% federal tax rate on a CCPC’s ABI. Prior to 2016, the rate was 11%. The previous government had enacted further decreases to this rate (to 9% by 2019). However, the new government’s 2016 federal budget proposed to retain the 10.5% rate for 2016 and subsequent tax years. This proposal was enacted in June 2016. However, only a limited amount of income qualifies for this deduction. The current federal limit is $500,000. Although all provinces also have a small business rate, the rate and the amount of income that qualifies for this lower rate varies from province to province (see Table 1 of the Corporate Taxation tables)." }, { "docid": "D1479560#0", "title": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RRSP\nRegistered Retirement Savings Plan", "text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from RRSP)navigation search This article needs additional citations for verification.

Source ABSThe Australian property bubble is the ongoing debate in Australia as to whether or not the Australian property market is significantly overpriced, and due for a significant downturn (also called a \"\"correction\"\" or \"\"collapse\"\"). The debate has been ongoing since at least 2001, with Australian property prices continuing to rise. Some commentators, including one Treasury official, [1] claim the Australian property market is in a significant bubble. Various industry professionals have argued that it is not a bubble and that house prices have the potential to keep rising in line with income growth. Some commentators have blamed rising property prices on state governments' restrictions on land supply, driving up the cost of land, lots, and thus homes. [ 2] Some have also blamed planning rules as acting to restrain supply of housing. A property bubble is a form of economic bubble normally characterised by a rapid increase in market prices of real property until they reach unsustainable levels relative to incomes and rents, and then decline. Australian house prices rose strongly relative to incomes and rents during the late 1990s and early 2000s; however, from 2003 to 2012 the price to income ratio and price to rent ratio have both remained fairly steady, with house prices tracking income and rent growth during that decade.

You probably already know the major tax advantages of contributing to an individual retirement account. You get to deduct your contributions to a traditional IRA, and all of your investments in either a traditional or Roth IRA grow without incurring any current tax obligation.

Types of Fees Your IRA custodian or trustee might charge a variety of different types of fees to handle your account, depending on the complexity of your account and the types of investments you select for your IRA. For example, your custodian might charge a one-time set up fee, an annual maintenance fee and a termination fee if you decide to close your account or move it to another trustee or custodian. You might also pay other fees, such as sales commissions, transaction fees, mutual fund loads or management fees which are not, strictly speaking, IRA custodial fees because you would pay those charges regardless of the type of account your investments are held in.

SCHREIBER, J. D. May 7, 2014Related TOPICSTax Taxation of Estates and Trusts The IRS issued final regulations on the controversial question of which costs incurred by trust and estates are subject to the 2% floor on miscellaneous deductions under Sec. 67 (a) ( T. D. 9664 ). The regulations will apply to tax years beginning on or after May 9, 2014. The final regulations retain from the proposed rules a requirement that certain fees be unbundled. The regulations finalize proposed rules issued in September 2011 (REG-128224-06) in response to the U. S. Supreme Court’s decision in Knight, 552 U. S. 181 (2008), on the income tax deductibility by estates and nongrantor trusts of investment advisory and other fees. Under Knight, fees paid to an investment adviser by a nongrantor trust or estate are generally miscellaneous itemized deductions subject to a floor of 2% of adjusted gross income (AGI), rather than fully deductible as an expense of administering an estate or trust under Sec. 67 (e) (1). The Supreme Court held that the latter provision limits its treatment to expenses that would not “commonly” or “customarily” be incurred if the property were held by an individual. The regulations implement the Court’s “commonly or customarily incurred” requirement by stating that a fee is deductible to the extent it exceeds the fee generally charged to an individual investor, where the excess is “attributable to an unusual investment objective” of the trust or estate or to “the need for a specialized balancing of the interests of various parties … such that a reasonable comparison with individual investors would be improper” (Regs.

Roth IRA Fees You might get hit with a number of different fees for your Roth IRA. Your custodian or trustee might charge you a setup fee, a maintenance fee, transaction fees when you buy or sell investments, transfer fees, withdrawal fees and advisory fees.

With a Roth account, you won’t get an immediate tax break, but you won’t pay any tax on your money when you eventually take it out. The IRS, however, has specific rules on just who can have a Roth IRA and how much money can be contributed each year. Income limits The first Roth IRA eligibility consideration is income. You must earn money to open any IRA. If your only income is from unearned sources, such as investments, you cannot contribute to an IRA.

S. taxpayers contemplate funding IRAs, they may wonder which type of IRA – Roth or traditional – is the better choice. If you are one of these individuals, here is an outline of some of the differences between these two retirement accounts, their eligibility requirements and other factors to consider when choosing the account that's right for you. ( See our tutorial: Retirement Planning . ) Contribution Limits The contribution limits for the Roth and traditional IRAs are the same. For tax year 2017, for example, you can contribute up to $5,500 to your IRA, plus an additional $1,000 catch-up contribution if you reached age 50 or older by the end of the tax year. Deductibility One of the major factors for deciding between a Roth and traditional IRA is your eligibility to deduct traditional IRA contributions and in turn get a tax break for the year you make the contribution. Your eligibility to deduct traditional IRA contributions, however, depends on whether you meet certain requirements. “A traditional IRA is fully tax deductible if you or your spouse are not participating in a retirement plan at work, regardless of income, or even if you or your spouse do participate but your income is less than $62,000 for an individual or $99,000 [if you are] filing jointly. Otherwise, you can still make a contribution but the tax deductibility is quickly phased out above those levels,” says Dan Stewart CFA®, president, Revere Asset Management, Inc., in Dallas, Texas.

[ 4] This resulted in section 401 (k) being inserted in the then taxation regulations that allowed this to be done. The section of the Internal Revenue Code that made such 401 (k) plans possible was enacted into law in 1978. [ 5] It was intended to allow taxpayers a break on taxes on deferred income. In 1980, a benefits consultant and attorney named Ted Benna took note of the previously obscure provision and figured out that it could be used to create a simple, tax-advantaged way to save for retirement. The client for whom he was working at the time chose not to create a 401 (k) plan.

Types of Fees Your IRA custodian or trustee might charge a variety of different types of fees to handle your account, depending on the complexity of your account and the types of investments you select for your IRA. For example, your custodian might charge a one-time set up fee, an annual maintenance fee and a termination fee if you decide to close your account or move it to another trustee or custodian. You might also pay other fees, such as sales commissions, transaction fees, mutual fund loads or management fees which are not, strictly speaking, IRA custodial fees because you would pay those charges regardless of the type of account your investments are held in.

Traditional IRAs were created in 1974, as part of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, to help bridge a retirement gap because many workers were not receiving pension plans from their employers and Social Security benefits would not be enough to provide for a comfortable retirement. Roth IRAs followed in 1997 as part of the Taxpayer Relief Act. Roth IRAs are similar to traditional IRAs, with the biggest difference being that money paid into to a Roth IRA is taxed as it enters. This means you can withdraw funds from a Roth without having to pay taxes during your retirement. There are several other benefits and features of a Roth IRA that may help you decide if it is appropriate for you. Roth IRAs are flexible.

Exempt-interest dividends are often associated with mutual funds that invest in municipal bonds.

Nontaxable Dividends Equity Income Dividend BREAKING DOWN 'Exempt-Interest Dividend'An exempt-interest dividend is a payment from a mutual fund that is not subject to federal income tax. Individuals with high net worths are more likely to use municipal bonds and funds because the tax savings outweigh the lower returns provided by the investments. The tax benefits provided by the investments, including exempt-interest dividends, are lost if the investments are held in an IRA.

Copied Select a Section 1 /0Treating interest properly in the tax code is essential to maintaining neutrality. Neutrality should be the guiding principle of tax reform. It holds that taxes should not influence—positively or negatively—the economic decisions of families, investors, entrepreneurs, or businesses. A neutral tax code is the most conducive to economic growth. In debates about tax reform or closing loopholes, many argue that deductions for interest, like those for mortgage interest and business interest, should be curbed or eliminated altogether to raise more money for the government to spend. However, deductions for interest expense, whether for individuals or businesses, preserve neutrality because they establish symmetry between lenders and borrowers when tax is levied on the interest income of lenders. Eliminating those deductions would both violate neutrality by discouraging investment and inflict serious damage on the economy. Congress should maintain interest deductions as long as it taxes the interest income of lenders. Maintain Neutrality by Establishing Symmetry The mortgage interest deduction (MID) is the deduction that it is most commonly suggested Congress should eliminate or curtail." }, { "docid": "D2636304#0", "title": "http://www.fairmark.com/college/kidtax/kiddietax.htm\nMinors Taxed at Parents' Rates", "text": "\"Kids & College > Taxation of Minors Minors Taxed at Parents' Rates The kiddie tax By Kaye A. Thomas Updated March 5, 2009Certain children that have investment income above a threshold amount have to pay tax at their parents' rates. At one time, wealthy families could save a great deal of money by transferring investment assets to minor children. Tens of thousands of dollars in investment income produced by those assets would be taxed to the children at the lower rates that apply to individuals who have relatively little income. Congress decided to limit the tax benefit from shifting income to children, so we now have a law that says certain children that have more than a small amount of investment income have to pay tax at their parents' tax rate. Originally this rule applied to children under 14 years of age, and it became known as the kiddie tax. Congress moved the age limit up to 18 as of 2006, and beginning in 2008 it can apply to students until they reach age 24, making the term kiddie tax something of a misnomer. See below for details on who is affected. Income threshold You don't have to worry about this rule until your child has investment income greater than a threshold amount, which is two times the amount allowed as a standard deduction for a dependent who has only investment income. For 2009, that amount is $950, so the kiddie tax begins to apply when your child has more than $1,900 in investment income. Your child can still owe regular income tax with less than $1,900 in income." }, { "docid": "D767571#0", "title": "https://www.irs.gov/instructions/i1065sk1/ch01.html\nPartner's Instructions for Schedule K-1 (Form 1065) (2017)", "text": "\"Partner's Instructions for Schedule K-1 (Form 1065) (2017)Partner's Share of Income, Deductions, Credits, etc. ( For Partner's Use Only)Section references are to the Internal Revenue Code unless otherwise noted.2017Partner's Instructions for Schedule K-1 (Form 1065) - Introductory Material Future Developments For the latest information about developments related to Schedule K-1 (Form 1065) and the Partner's Instructions for Schedule K-1 (Form 1065), such as legislation enacted after they were published, go to IRS.gov/Form1065.

But it is an interesting fact that our current tax system assures that — year after year — the superrich, those who report adjusted gross incomes of more than $10 million, have tax rates that are significantly lower than those of the very rich, those earning more than $500,000 but less than $10 million. Figures just released by the Internal Revenue Service show that in 2011 the difference in rates between the groups rose to 4.1 percentage points, the largest since the I. R.

Each type of income you receive will have different tax rules that apply to it. To estimate your taxes in retirement, you need to know how each income source shows up on your tax return.

Since then, the company has been creating wristwatches that offer additional useful data, such as the Casio World Time Watch. Setting the Casio World Time Watch Without having a Casio user manual by your side, this short guide explains how to set the local time, world time, alarm, and countdown timer. Using the different features of a Casio watch is easy when knowing what the different buttons do. The first thing a Casio user needs to know is what the different buttons on the watch do. Each button can change a different setting. The Adjust button is on the top left. The Mode button is on the bottom left; press it to change from one mode to another. The Search button is on the bottom right.

I'm particularly interested in this one: SCUDERIA FERRARI CARBON CHRONO - Ferrari Store I read here ( ferrari watches - Rolex Forums - Rolex Watch Forum) for example that they're very poor sellers - which seems to be true because no one's talking about them and the search tool yielded almost nothing about them on this forum.

Despite earlier views that cargo ships from Brazil docking at Mobile unloaded goods infested with the ants, [1] recent DNA research confirmed that the likely source population for all invasive S. invicta in the United States occurred at or near Formosa, Argentina, and virtually every analysis ruled out all sampled Brazilian populations as a potential source. [ 2] Biologist E. O. Wilson says that he reported the first colony, in the Mobile area, when he was 13. [ 3] The ants then spread from Alabama to almost every state of the American South, from Texas to Maryland and a few other Mid-Atlantic states. Since the 1990s infestations have been reported in New Mexico and parts of Arizona in the Southwest. They have also been reported in California in the West, but probably arrived via ship or truck rather than by spreading. [ 4] In a similar way, the ants were accidentally introduced into Australia in 2001.

Replacing the battery without a tool is not recommended and could void the warranty if the watch is new. Using you fingers to remove the old battery and replace it with a new one may shorten the life of the battery by contaminating it with oils. If you are replacing a dead battery that has leaked acid in its holder, the lack of cleaning materials to properly clean it could lead to further damage. Place the Invicta watch face down in the palm of your hand. Place you fingertips around the edges of the screwdown case back and grip tightly. Rotate the case back counterclockwise. If it loosens, rotate the case back until it’s free from the case. Use a rubberized jar grip opener if the case back is stubborn. Use you fingertips again to loosen the case back by unscrewing it." }, { "docid": "D3557252#0", "title": "http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=rolex+swiss+made\n83 results for rolex swiss made",

Founded in 2011, its name is a nod to the defunct Shinola shoe polish company that operated in the early- and mid-20th century. Shinola is owned and operated by Bedrock Brands, a privately owned Texas investment group, and was launched by Tom Kartsotis, [1] one of the founders of the Fossil Group retail conglomerate.

[ 4] In 2001, the name Shinola was acquired by Bedrock Manufacturing, a venture capital firm based in Dallas, Texas (later rechristened as Bedrock Brands ). Kartsotis wanted to create an American watch-manufacturing brand to rival Swiss-makers at a lower price point.

A dental retainer is a fixed or removable appliance that is prescribed to patients to wear after their braces are removed. A typical orthodontic treatment goes for 6 months to 2 years (sometimes longer) and when it is completed, patients will be measured for the fabrication of the retainers. As the word suggests, retains are supposed to hold the teeth in place, to actually hold the teeth in their new place in the jaw. How much does a retainer cost? Retainers cost around $400 to $600 depending on which retainers you choose — the price of which usually depends on the materials used and use of an outsourced technician. Types of Retainers To get a better grasp of how retainers are priced, you will have to take a look at the different options that patients have: Hawley’s Removable Retainers: The most common type of retainers are the Hawley’s removable retainers. These are removable, with extensive palatal coverage and this makes the retainers quite retentive but also uncomfortable to wear. There is a straight metal component that wraps around the teeth hold the teeth in place and given its design they may also be fitted with artificial teeth that should conveniently fill gaps in between teeth, should there be any.

Answer: It’s the age-old question. For an eternity, of course! But let me change your perspective on that bleak outlook. The real question is, How long do you want to wear your retainers? Depends on how long you want your teeth to stay that way. So it’s really about how long you need to wear your retainers. Teeth are not static. They are dynamic, always moving, and they will continue to move and shift even though you’ve had braces. They’ll try to move forward, up and outwards, and they will continually crowd.

I’m not sure what possessed me, but I scheduled my appointment to get my Invisalign attachments an hour after I was due to drop my 5 year old daughter off for her first ever day at school. By the time I had realised, it was too late to reschedule, unless I wanted to wait another 2 weeks for my next set, which I certainly didn’t. So, I arrived at my appointment red eyed and sorry for myself after a morning of blubbing and was perhaps feeling a little more fragile than I might otherwise have been. You should probably bear that in mind when reading this account!My teeth though, were in great shape. I had a quick chat with the ortho about the bleaching which we agreed had been reasonably successful. I mentioned that after 3 consecutive nights of use it had made my gums crack and bleed, which he said noone else had told him before, so maybe that is just me? He had a quick look at tray 2 in my mouth, and examined the crack (read about that here ). He could immediately see the problem, and upon examining the other aligners he had waiting for me we could see that some of them cover my stray lower tooth completely, and some just cover the top of it. Unfortunately, he wasn’t able to give me any explanation other than the that the Invisalign robot was having an off day but he decided it was unnecessary to cover that tooth, and took all the future sets away and filed them down." }, { "docid": "D672674#0", "title": "https://www.animated-teeth.com/dental-braces/a2-simpli-red-white-blue.htm\nSimpli5Â®, Red White & BlueÂ® and RW IIÂ® vs. InvisalignÂ® - How do they compare?", "text": "\"Simpli5®, Red White & Blue® and RW II® vs. Invisalign® - How do they compare?

From all the different types of braces that you could choose from, there are definitely some that are more appropriate for different types of orthodontic conditions than others. Here are the five most common types of braces and what situations they best work for: Type 1: Metal Braces Often also called “traditional braces,” metal braces have two basic components. These are the metal bracket that is applied to the teeth and the bendable metal wire that is threaded through the brackets in order to apply pressure to the teeth and ultimately move them. This is the type of braces that most teenagers get, because they are the least expensive version and are often the fastest way of moving teeth into their ideal locations. In the past, the brackets and wires used for metal braces were very noticeable and could be annoying to those who wore them because of their size and intrusiveness. Today’s metal braces are far smaller and less noticeable than they were in the past.

One of the keys to successful Invisalign Orthodontic treatment is the use of Invisalign Attachments (also known as … Invisalign Studs … Bumps … ‘Invisalign Braces’ …Things …) They are, specifically, small bumps or shapes of orthodontic bonding material that stay on the teeth during Invisalign Orthodontic treatment. The size and shape depends on the type of movement required for that specific tooth. ( Below is example of what the actual Invisalign Attachments looks like from one of our patients. As you can see, there are attachments placed and removed without leaving any marks on the teeth). Invisalign Attachments are small shapes of orthodontic composite tooth colored dental material similar to dental fillings that are bonded on teeth during the duration of your treatment.

Click here This week was another milestone in my treatment as it was time to remove my Invisalign attachments or buttons. I have now reached 30/34 on my first run of lower Invisalign braces (only 4 more to go!) and set 9/9 of my first run of Invisalign refinements on my upper arch- in other words, the first run of my upper refinements are now finished! To mark this momentous occasion I had a long appointment with my orthodontist to evaluate how my upper teeth are now looking, and also, joy of joy, to remove my upper Invisalign attachments. For those of you as yet unfamiliar with all the details of Invisalign, attachments are small tooth coloured blobs of material that are glued or cemented onto teeth during Invisalign treatment. Their purpose is to provide additional “grip” for the aligners so that more difficult or complex tooth movements are possible. They can be used on any number of teeth, depending on the preferences of your Invisalign provider and what movements the teeth need to make. Some lucky people have none, some have a large number, I have 5. You can see some of mine in the picture below: My orthodontist decides to Remove Invisalign Attachments Throughout my treatment, whilst I haven’t enjoyed having attachments exactly, I have easily tolerated them to the point that not only didn’t I feel them in my mouth any more, I didn’t see them when I looked in the mirror either." }, { "docid": "D303125#0", "title": "https://www.bracesinfo.com/how-much-does-invisalign-cost.html\nHow Much Does Invisalign Cost", "text": "How Much Does Invisalign Cost When deciding if orthodontics is right for you, cost becomes a large determining factor, especially for someone on a budget. While many people think Invisalign is a more costly alternative to traditional (brackets and wires), Invisalign has numerous budgets that is priced for the average American income. Many providers offer flexible interest free payment options within the office or through a third party financing company when choosing Invisalign. Let’s review a general breakdown of cost and recall the difference in providers, so you are able to choose the best price and provider for your orthodontic needs. In 2013 the price for Invisalign ranged from $3500 to $8000. The average price for Invisalign treatment is $5000. Invisalign Express average is approximately $2000. Invisalign Express utilizes invisible aligner technology (smooth, clear plastic aligners) in a five stage or less treatment program.

The bond may result from the electrostatic force of attraction between oppositely charged ions as in ionic bonds; or through the sharing of electrons as in covalent bonds. The strength of chemical bonds varies considerably; there are \"\"strong bonds\"\" or \"\"primary bond\"\" such as metallic, covalent or ionic bonds and \"\"weak bonds\"\" or \"\"secondary bond\"\" such as dipole–dipole interactions, the London dispersion force and hydrogen bonding. Since opposite charges attract via a simple electromagnetic force, the negatively charged electrons that are orbiting the nucleus and the positively charged protons in the nucleus attract each other. An electron positioned between two nuclei will be attracted to both of them, and the nuclei will be attracted toward electrons in this position. This attraction constitutes the chemical bond. Due to the matter wave nature of electrons and their smaller mass, they must occupy a much larger amount of volume compared with the nuclei, and this volume occupied by the electrons keeps the atomic nuclei in a bond relatively far apart, as compared with the size of the nuclei themselves." } ]	[ { "docid": "D1164215#0", "title": "https://ca.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080525074408AAh5q4J\nWhy are salts brittle (easily broken)?", "text": "Science & Mathematics Chemistry Why are salts brittle (easily broken)?

This is a line that scientists draw. Rather than being a logical (either it's covalent or it's not) think of it as more like a specturm, with some bonds being more covalent than others, and then having more covalent character than others. Second of all, it depends A LOT on the kind of atoms your using. Big ones with high atomic numbers have trouble getting enthusiastic about much of anything because they have so much shielding going on from the dozens of electrons they have. So no rule you make is going to hold entirely true - some ionic bonds are stronger than some covalent bonds, and some covalent bonds are stronger than some ionic bonds. Having said all those disclaimers, the answer is that more ionic character generally makes a bond stronger. Here is why: Just think about what would happen if you were to break the bond by pulling the atoms physically apart and then re-establish it by shoving them together again. If you had a strongly ionic bond, like H-F, when you separated them hydrogen wouldn't have a chance of keeping the shared electrons when faced with flourine's massive electronegativity.

The chemical and physical properties of the compound that is eventually formed are different from those of the constituent elements.

There are less than a hundred different elements that can be found in nature, but the compounds that they form are actually found in millions. Let's have a look at what ionic and molecular compounds are, their various properties, and the main points of difference between them. Ionic Compounds When an atom loses or gains one or more electrons, it becomes positively or negatively charged, and this charged atom is called an ion. Ions are unstable, and hence, a negatively charged ion gets attracted towards a positively charged ion to form an ionic compound. The bonds that they form are called ionic bonds. If an atom loses an electron, it acquires a positive charge, and if it gains an electron, it acquires a negative charge. A common example of an ionic compound is common salt or Na Cl, in which the sodium atom gains one pair of electrons from the chlorine atom, and forms an ionic bond." }, { "docid": "D1985871#0", "title": "http://science.jrank.org/pages/4352/Minerals-Chemical-bonding.html\nMinerals - Chemical Bonding", "text": "Minerals - Chemical Bonding Tweetbonds electrons ionic atoms In molecules, elements are not merely mixed together, but are joined by chemical bonds.

Sulfur, and both of carbon's natural forms, graphite and diamond, are covalently-bonded minerals. So is quartz, which contains only silicon and oxygen. Ionic bonds are strong bonds formed when electrons are transferred from one element to another.

The short answer is that they are not always weaker in fact. Some ionic compounds have very strong bonds, while some covalent bonds are quite weak. Usually however, it is easier to break an ionic bond than a covalent one. What determines the actual strength of a bond is quite complex, but let me try to explain the basic principles. Bonding has everything to do with electrons. In ionic bonds, an element loses an electron to another element. The two elements are then bonded by a force of attraction based on electrostatics, or Coulombic force; it is due to the fact that a positive charge and a negative charge attract each other (like the two opposite ends of a magnet). Since one element has a negative charge and the other has a positive charge they are held together in a bond. I will give an example.

Describe the six different types of solids. A solid is like a liquid in that particles are in contact with each other. Solids are unlike liquids in that the intermolecular forces are strong enough to hold the particles in place. At low enough temperatures, all substances are solids (helium is the lone exception), but the temperature at which the solid state becomes the stable phase varies widely among substances, from 20 K (−253°C) for hydrogen to over 3,900 K (3,600°C) for carbon. The solid phase has several characteristics. First, solids maintain their shape. They do not fill their entire containers like gases do, and they do not adopt the shape of their containers like liquids do. They cannot be easily compressed like gases can, and they have relatively high densities. Solids may also demonstrate a variety of properties." }, { "docid": "D70337#0", "title": "http://chemed.chem.purdue.edu/genchem/topicreview/bp/ch13/category.php\n.", "text": "\"Categories of Solids Categories of Solids Based on the Solid Pack Categories of Solids Based on Bonds that Hold the Solid Together Categories of Solids Based on the Solid Pack Solids can be divided into three categories on the basis of how the particles that form the solid pack. Crystalline solids are three-dimensional analogs of a brick wall. They have a regular structure, in which the particles pack in a repeating pattern from one edge of the solid to the other. Amorphous solids (literally, \"\"solids without form\"\") have a random structure, with little if any long-range order. Polycrystalline solids are an aggregate of a large number of small crystals or grains in which the structure is regular, but the crystals or grains are arranged in a random fashion. The extent to which a solid is crystalline has important effects on its physical properties. Examples: The polyethylene used to make sandwich bags and garbage packs is an amorphous solid that consists of more or less randomly oriented chains of (-CH 2 -CH 2 -) linkages. Milk bottles are made from a more crystalline form of polyethylene, and they have a much more rigid structure.

It's this address that each Internet Service Provider uses to forward internet requests to a specific home or business, much like how a delivery vehicle uses your physical address to forward packages to your house. Think of your public IP address as any other address you have. For example, your email address and your home address are both completely unique to you, which is why sending mail to those addresses ensures that they actually get to you and not someone else.

Share the knowledge!Network Address Translation (NAT) is the process where a network device, usually a firewall, assigns a public address to a computer (or group of computers) inside a private network. The main use of NAT is to limit the number of public IP addresses an organization or company must use, for both economy and security purposes. The most common form of network translation involves a large private network using addresses in a private range (10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255, 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255, or 192.168.0 0 to 192.168.255.255). The private addressing scheme works well for computers that only have to access resources inside the network, like workstations needing access to file servers and printers. Routers inside the private network can route traffic between private addresses with no trouble. However, to access resources outside the network, like the Internet, these computers have to have a public address in order for responses to their requests to return to them. This is where NAT comes into play. Internet requests that require Network Address Translation (NAT) are quite complex but happen so rapidly that the end user rarely knows it has occurred.

Our new Community Support and discussion site is live at community.swann.com. Please post there if you have any questions about articles or require support for your Swann equipment. The first step to port forwarding is to determine which ports you need to open. You should able to tell by reading the documentation that applies to your Swann product, or by simply having a look through the network configuration menu of your Swann system. Our systems will use, by default, one or more of the following ports:80 85 554 8000 9000 18004The next step is to open those ports. In order to have a port forwarding setup that will keep working, it is important to ensure that the IP address of the DVR inside your Network will remain fixed so that the port forwarding rules are not invalidated. You can either set a static IP address (Static LAN IP) on the DVR instead of relying on the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) of your router or, if your router permits it, you can reserve a LAN-IP address for the DVR through the settings of your router. Some routers call it a Static IP allocation, some call it an IP reservation.

This IP address can be static or dynamic. A static IP generally stays the same over long periods of time whereas a dynamic IP address will change frequently. Often there are several computers utilizing a single internet connection. These computers all share a single public IP address. A router connects the group of computers to the internet and identifies each computer on the network with a locally unique IP address. The IP address each machine has on this local area network (LAN) cannot be used to communicate with computers on a different LAN elsewhere. Instead the public IP address is used to communicate from one LAN, across the internet to another LAN. How to locate your Public IP Address Occasionally you will need to locate your public IP address for configuration or troubleshooting purposes.

A Network in the world of computers is said to be a collection of interconnected hosts, via some shared media which can be wired or wireless. A computer network enables its hosts to share and exchange data and information over the media. Network can be a Local Area Network spanned across an office or Metro Area Network spanned across a city or Wide Area Network which can be spanned across cities and provinces. Computer network can be as simple as two PCs connected together via a single copper cable or it can be grown up to the complexity where every computer in this world is connected to every other, the Internet.

BA is the first airline in Europe to allow passengers to keep hand-held electronic devices switched on from the moment they enter the plane to the moment they leave provided they are kept on \"\"flight safe mode\"\". Although the rules still prohibit calls, text messages or emails, they will allow people to work, read, play games, listen to music or watch films stored on their phones or tablet computers. The change comes after the European Aviation Safety Agency announced earlier this month that airlines were free to relax restrictions on the use of electronic devices if they wished. It follows the introduction of similar rules by US airlines last month after the American Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) indicated that restrictions could be removed. Related Articles US airlines lifts ban to use portable electronics during take-off and landing31 Oct 2013Tablets 'safe to use' during take-off09 Dec 2013BA said last night it had demonstrated to the Civil Aviation Authority that its new policy, which comes into effect today, complies with all existing safety laws. Other airlines are expected to follow suit. Previously, passengers have been told they can use electronic devices while at cruising altitude but not during take-off and landing, or on the tarmac. An exception has been business passengers on British Airways flights between London City Airport and New York, who have already been permitted to send text messages and use wifi while on board. The new changes allow all passengers to keep devices on provided the \"\"flight safe\"\" function, which disables network access, is activated." } ]	[ { "docid": "D1408228#0", "title": "http://www.filetransferipad.com/ipad-contact-transfer.php\nTransfer Data", "text": "\"Articlesipad calendar transferipad contact transferipad email transferipad photo transferipad notes transferipad to ipad transferipad to pc transferipad to ipad transfer Transfer Contact From i Pad To Computer How can I transfer contacts of my i Pad?

Not Just For Robbing Banks... If you're wondering if you can use your duffle bag as carry on luggage the answer is yes... no... maybe... The size of your duffel bag usually depends on how much stuff you put in it! They don't have a fixed size like a suitcase. As long as it's smaller than 22x14x9 inches then you're probably going to be ok. Remember the cool thing about duffle bags is that you can just leave some room and squeeze them to make the smaller. You will probably need to squeeze your bag down to 22 x 14 x 9 inches so don't over pack it. You can check this page to see all the airlines carry on luggage size limits.

A common problem can be that your i Pad will start to freeze on some menus, some call this a crash, when your i Pad won’t respond to the home button, sleep button or by touching the screen. Not all is lost though, there a couple of simple solutions for you try before you have to restore the entire i Pad. If those simple steps don’t help you out, it may be time to jump in and restore the entire thing. Follow the steps below so we can get that i Pad back up and running. Your first two solutions are: Restart the i Pad: press and hold down the sleep/wake on the front of the i Pad for few seconds until the red slider appears, slide this across to shut the i Pad down. Restart the i Pad by pressing the Sleep/wake button on the top until the Apple logo appears Reset the i Pad: if restarting the i Pad didn't work then you will need to reset the i Pad. You can do this by pressing the Home button and the Sleep/wake button on the top the i Pad's case and holding them down together for 10 seconds. The i Pad should then reset itself Restore the i Pad If neither of these two options fixes your unresponsive i Pad then you will need to restore the i Pad to its factory settings. First make sure you have a USB 2.0 connection cable and the latest version of i Tunes installed Connect the i Pad to your Mac or PC and launch i Tunes In the Devices section click on the i Pad icon then the Summary tab and then click on the Restore button When prompted, click on Back Up to back up all your i Pad's media and settings Then click on the Restore button This will restore your i Pad to its factory settings and install the latest version of the i Pad operating software." }, { "docid": "D2534009#0", "title": "https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2706295?start=0&tstart=0\nQ: Does IPad have a standard jack for earbuds?", "text": "\"Support Communities i Pad Using i Pad Looks like no one's replied in a while.

As was already pointed out, you might have to use what you think is a lot of force to get your plug to fully seat. If it is visually confirmed as plugged in all the way, but you still get sound out of the internal speakers and not the earbuds or whatever, then first repeat that test with at least one other rig. If still the same, don't bother doing anything before taking your i Pad back to Apple for replacement, as I really don't think that this could be any sort of a firmware issue." }, { "docid": "D536124#0", "title": "https://www.mapsofworld.com/kazakhstan/kazakhstan-mineral-map.html\nKazakhstan Mineral Map", "text": "Maps of World Current, Credible, Consistent Search Maps» Continents» Country Maps» City Maps» Thematic Maps» Travel» Tools» Resources» USA» World Map Get Custom Mapping Quote (408) 637-0064 \| [email protected] Home / Kazakhstan Maps / Kazakhstan Mineral Map What's New?

REALLY??? I can understand if it's 11 pounds carry-on + personal item - especially if it's an international flight If you take a 12-18 inch carry-on bags those typically weigh roughly 6-7 pounds empty!! A lady's purse probably weighs more (at least my mother's). If you bring a camera (and I definitely don't want to check-in my d SLR) - that's 3 pounds (without the camera bag or any extra lens- that's my stand camera + stand lens weight). My laptop weighs 8 pounds. So camera + Laptop in an empty bag that's already my allowance. What if you buy something at the airport?? It does say you get 11 extra pounds if you're a diver - but that's for check in bags. I'm guessing - coming from LAX I have to make sure no carry-on bags then How do you guys manage this?

The third device in the i Pad line of tablets, it added a Retina Display, the new Apple A5X chip with a quad-core graphics processor, a 5-mega pixel camera, HD 1080p video recording, voice dictation, and support for LTE networks in North America. [ 7] It shipped with i OS 5, which also provides a platform for audio-visual media, including electronic books, periodicals, films, music, computer games, presentations and web content. [ 3]In the US and Canada, nine variations of the third-generation i Pad were offered, compared to six in the rest of the world, although some countries had only the Wi-Fi only model. Each variation was available with black or white front glass panels, with options for 16, 32, or 64 GB of storage. In North America, connectivity options were Wi-Fi only, Wi-Fi + 4G (LTE) on Verizon, AT&T, Telus, Rogers, or Bell. [ 1] For the rest of the world outside North America, connectivity options are Wi-Fi only (on the Wi-Fi model) or Wi-Fi + 3G (on the Wi-Fi + Cellular model), with the latter unavailable in some countries, as 4G (LTE) connectivity for the device is not available outside North America. The Wi-Fi + Cellular model includes GPS capability. Initially, the cellular version was titled and marketed worldwide as the \"\"Wi-Fi + 4G\"\" model, but due to regional differences in classification of 4G (LTE) connectivity outside of North America, Apple later rebranded and altered their marketing to call this the \"\"Wi-Fi + Cellular\"\" model.

The question that many readers might have is: Is the DJI Phantom 3 still relevant with the Phantom 4 and the Mavic Pro being out? Can it still compete? Yes, yes and yes... because it offers by far the best value. At first glance, the Phantom 3 looks deceptively similar to other drones in the Phantom series. In fact, it looks nearly identical so it would be normal to assume not much changed. But you'd be wrong, dead wrong. The new Phantom 3 is light years ahead of the previous generation of ready to fly drones (like the Phantom 2 Vision) and leaves most other manufacturers in the dust. The reason for the new performance is mainly due to new motors and a new optical sensor underneath the quad. The new sensors help stabilize the drone to a new level of accuracy making it the most stable quadcopter yet in this price range." }, { "docid": "D2133341#0", "title": "https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4511955?start=0&tstart=0\nQ: i cant sync music into my ipad mini. why?!", "text": "\"weihaoleong Level 1 (0 points)Q: i cant sync music into my ipad mini. why? ! i have problem syncing music into my ipad mini but this does not happen to my iphone 4s. why?i Pad mini Wi-Fi, i OS 6.0.1Posted on Nov 15, 2012 7:25 PMReply I have this question too (111)Q: i cant sync music into my ipad mini. why? !

( Although some devices like the Nexus 7 don't have a slot, the OS provides a way to do it.) That means that if you happen to need a ton of onboard storage, Apple has to solder it onto the logic board when you buy it. A Surface RT, for example, can come with 64GB of onboard storage, but you can buy a 64GB micro SD card for it for some small amount of money. But this is not an option on the i Pad. If Apple just allowed you to plug in a micro SD card, this whole thing would be a non-issue." }, { "docid": "D2859812#0", "title": "http://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/ipad-pro-4gb-ram/\nDid Adobe spill the beans on the iPad Proâs internal memory?", "text": "Mobile Did Adobe spill the beans on the i Pad Pro’s internal memory? By David Curry — Posted on September 10, 2015 - 8:00AMApple never confirms the amount of RAM inside i OS devices, but Adobe may have outed the i Pad Pro’s internal memory in a press release earlier today. “i Pad Pro is great for creative workflows with a high-res 12.9-inch touch screen display at 2,732 x 2,048 pixels, A9X chip, and 4GB RAM,” Adobe said in the press release highlighting Creative Cloud coming to i OS. Adobe has since removed the part about 4GB of RAM, but it is only a matter of time before a teardown of the i Pad Pro reveals all. Apple did state on stage that the i Pad Pro has twice the memory when compared to the i Pad Air 2. The i Pad Pro is targeted at professionals and enterprise customers who want the additional performance and size. It wouldn’t be that surprising to see a large upgrade in memory, allowing the i Pad Pro to run two portrait apps side by side without any lag. The A9X chip has faster flash storage capabilities and Apple claims it is faster than 80 percent of all portable PCs. On graphics tasks, it is faster than 90 percent of portable PCs. We’ll have to wait and see if that claim holds up, since we don’t know what portable PCs Apple tested against the i Pad Pro." }, { "docid": "D2842335#0", "title": "http://www.classthink.com/2013/05/15/managing-ipads-with-meraki/\nManaging iPads with Meraki", "text": "Android Managing i Pads with Meraki By Karl Rivers on 15 May, 2013 59 Comments I’ve spent a lot of time trying to find the most efficient way to manage i OS devices.

Recently purchased by Cisco, Meraki System Manager is a cloud based Mobile Device Management (MDM) system designed to wirelessly manage not only i OS devices, but also Android, Windows 7, and Mac OSX . Because Meraki is entirely cloud based and works wirelessly pushing out settings and apps to i Pads, i Phones, and even i Pod Touch you don’t have to gather all your i OS devices together to update them as you would Apple Configurator and you don’t have the additional hardware cost involved with Apple’s Profile Manager.

There is a new feature in the IOS 8 that’s called “ Continuity .” It allows users to answer a gadget and make calls on any device that supports i OS, which is connected to the identical Wi-Fi network as the i Phone. According to Apple, Continuity is critical in its objective of creating a continuum of usage between i Pod, i Pod, i Phones, and Macs. As you might guess, that would be a fantastic reality for anyone who owns at least two of those gadgets from apple.

You can blame this misconception on the simultaneous launching of the i Pad Mini and fourth-generation i Pad in the fall of 2012.

Although it weighs just 0.7 pounds, it delivers the heavyweight capabilities of its predecessors. The Mini adopts i Pad 2’s A5 processor and 768-by-1024-pixel screen resolution. Like i Pad 3, it can connect to 4G and LTE networks and work with Siri. It also uses i Pad 4’s narrow Lightning connector for charging and syncing and cutting-edge cameras to capture high-definition videos and photos.i Pad 4The fourth-generation i Pad -- called “The New i Pad with Retina Display” -- is the only model to offer a speedy A6X processor and 128GB of internal storage. It, too, distills the best features of preceding models, most notably i Pad 3’s Retina Display, Siri compatibility and ability to connect to zippy 4G and LTE cellular networks. IPad 4 rolled out the eight-pin Lightning connector that breaks significantly from the 30-pin dock connector of earlier models, and a camera combo that it shares only with the Mini -- namely, a 5-megapixel back-facing camera that records videos at 1080p and a 1.2-megapixel front-facing camera that records at 720p.i Pad 3If Apple refuses to call its third generation i Pad the i Pad 3, it’s probably because it introduced so many firsts.

That means that the insurance limits are applied to the combined balances of all accounts held by a depositor at a single bank. Not only that, but a single bank includes all of its branches and its Internet division, even if it does business under a different name. Accounts held at separately chartered banks are insured separately. However, it's possible to have more than $250,000 fully insured with a single bank, if your money is strategically divided among the different categories of account ownership.

The emails are intended to notify customers of upcoming changes to FDIC coverage. There appears to be two versions of this email depending on which Capital One Bank holds your money. Both emails have the following excerpt which explains the changes: Last February, ING DIRECT became a part of the Capital One family, but there's still some official stuff we have to tidy up, like consolidating our legal structure. What's that mean in real life? It just means that on November 1, 2012 (subject to regulators giving us the final go-ahead), ING Bank, fsb (that's ING DIRECT's official name) and Capital One, N. A., will legally become one bank—and unless you hear from us, assume they gave us two thumbs up. It also means that the FDIC coverage on your deposit accounts will stay as is until 6 months following that date (or May 1, 2013). Then, your FDIC coverage will be based on your total combined deposits at Capital One, N. A., and ING DIRECT up to the FDIC max of $250,000 per depositor - or $500,000 for joint depositors. If you opened CDs with ING Bank, fsb, and Capital One, N. A. , before November 1, 2012, they'll stay separately insured until the 1st maturity date after May 1, 2013.

If the bank fails, that uninsured money could be lost. In my post yesterday in which I described two problem credit unions and provided some NCUA and FDIC resources, the reader Lou posted a useful comment about a little known aspect of the FDIC rules which can make it easy for people to insure up to $1.25 million. In this post, I’ll provide more details about this. First, it’s important to understand the following FDIC rules. The details are described in this FDIC Comprehensive Seminar on Deposit Insurance Coverage For Bankers. Unlike the guide for consumers, this guide for bankers includes more details and examples which can be useful to ensure you understand all of the rules.

What’s the history behind the FDIC? And how much of your deposits are protected by them? Important stuff everyone who gives money to a bank should know but – alas, most of us probably don’t. Knowing the answers should give you a little more comfort in keeping your assets in a bank versus your mattress or a hole in the ground – and more importantly, how to keep all of them safe. What is the FDIC? The FDIC is an acronym for the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. It is an independent government agency, created in 1933, that insures bank deposits in the United States. Institutional bank members must carry that FDIC logo/statement within each branch." }, { "docid": "D19491#0", "title": "https://www.wellsfargo.com/help/checking-savings/glossary\nChecking and Savings Glossary", "text": "\"A - C \| D - L \| M - R \| S - ZA – CAnnual Percentage Yield (APY)A percentage rate that reflects the total amount of interest paid on a deposit account (e.g., checking, savings, CD or IRA).

FDIC deposit insurance is backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government. Even in the rare circumstance that a bank has failed, no depositor has lost anything since the organization's inception in 1933 thanks to the FDIC. FDIC insurance covers funds in checking and savings accounts, money market deposit accounts and certificates of deposit (CDs). FDIC insurance does not cover other financial products such as stocks, bonds, mutual fund shares, life insurance policies, annuities or municipal securities. For additional FDIC deposit information, visit www.fdic.gov/deposit. Texas Gulf Bank, N.

It can be difficult to figure out simple ways to save money and how to use your savings to pursue your financial goals. This step-by-step guide to money-saving habits can help you develop a realistic savings plan.1Record your expenses The first step to saving money is to figure out how much you spend. Keep track of all your expenses—that means every coffee, newspaper and snack you buy. Ideally, you can account for every penny. Once you have your data, organize the numbers by categories, such as gas, groceries and mortgage, and total each amount. Consider using your credit card or bank statements to help you with this. If you bank online, you may be able to filter your statements to easily break down your spending.2Make a budget Once you have an idea of what you spend in a month, you can begin to organize your recorded expenses into a workable budget. Your budget should outline how your expenses measure up to your income—so you can plan your spending and limit overspending. In addition to your monthly expenses, be sure to factor in expenses that occur regularly but not every month, such as car maintenance." }, { "docid": "D493673#0", "title": "https://www.wellsfargo.com/investing/retirement/ira/select/\nChoose Your Account", "text": "\"How do you want to invest?

Now that a fund that markets itself as the world’s “first and longest running money fund,” suddenly found itself in the nearly unprecedented position of having to “break the buck,” we thought we’d help clarify. Here we go: These types of accounts are generally FDIC insured: Checking, savings, trust, certificates of deposit (CDs), IRA retirement accounts, and money market deposit accounts. A money market deposit account earns interest at a rate set by the bank and usually limits the customer to a certain number of transactions within a stated time period. Do not confuse a money market mutual fund with an FDIC-insured money market deposit account, which earns interest in an amount determined by, and paid by, the financial institution where your funds are deposited.

The Legal Lowdown FDIC Deposit Insurance Coverage The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is an independent agency of the United States government that protects against the loss of insured deposits if an FDIC-insured bank or savings association fails. FDIC deposit insurance is backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government. Since the FDIC was established, no depositor has ever lost a single penny of FDIC insured funds. FDIC insurance covers funds in deposit accounts, including checking and savings accounts, money market deposit accounts and certificates of deposit (CDs). FDIC insurance does not, however, cover other financial products and services that insured banks may offer, such as stocks, bonds, mutual fund shares, life insurance policies, annuities or municipal securities. There is no need for depositors to apply for FDIC insurance or even to request it. Coverage is automatic. To ensure funds are fully protected, depositors should understand their deposit insurance coverage limits. The FDIC provides separate insurance coverage for deposits held in different ownership categories such as single accounts, joint accounts, Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) and trust accounts." }, { "docid": "D681613#0", "title": "https://www.fool.com/knowledge-center/what-is-the-penalty-for-cashing-out-an-ira-certifi.aspx\nWhat Is the Penalty for Cashing Out an IRA Certificate of Deposit?", "text": "If you're looking for a way to get a decent return on investment without exposing yourself to too much risk, a certificate of deposit could be a good choice. Certificates of deposit offer investors the opportunity to generate a higher return on their money than the average savings account offers. Certificates of deposit Also known as a CD, a certificate of deposit is similar to a regular savings account in that you put money in a bank and earn interest at the going rate. But whereas a regular savings account lets you withdraw your money whenever you want to, with a CD, you're committing to locking up your money for a specified period of time. That period could be six months, one year, two years, or longer. In exchange for that extended commitment, you'll be rewarded with a more generous interest rate. Plus, like a savings account, when you open a CD, there's no risk of losing money provided you invest it at a bank that's FDIC-insured. For 2016, the FDIC insurance limit is $250,000 for a single depositor and $500,000 for a joint account shared by two depositors. As long as you don't exceed these limits when opening your CD, you won't lose any of your principal. However, there is a major downside to CDs." } ]

Active Management and Fees A bank or financial adviser that is actively managing your retirement account will normally charge a fee, usually a percentage of total assets in the account. Although the IRS allows you to deduct advisory fees and commissions, this does not apply to costs that you pay directly from the funds in the retirement account. If the manager simply deducts the fee from cash in the account, you can't deduct it. Reimbursements and Deductions If your retirement account pays a fee, and you reimburse the account to pay for it, the IRS considers that money to be an additional contribution. It counts toward your annual limit, and in the case of a traditional IRA would be deductible." }, { "docid": "D2680709#0", "title": "http://www.marottaonmoney.com/are-investment-management-fees-tax-deductible/\nAre Investment Management Fees Tax Deductible?", "text": "Are Investment Management Fees Tax Deductible?by David John Marotta on June 25, 20122018 Tax Law Changes Investment management fees are no longer tax deductible.

I often get asked, “Are investment management fees tax deductible?” The answer is not a simple “yes” or “no.” Like many tax questions, the answer is “It depends. ”Investment management fees are a tax-deductible expense. They can be listed on Schedule A under the section “Job Expenses and Certain Miscellaneous Deductions.” Line 23 includes investment expenses. These expenses get added into unreimbursed employee expenses, tax preparation fees, safe deposit boxes and other qualifying expenses.

Contributions to the account are tax-deductible on the federal and most state tax returns, and withdrawals are tax-free if they are used for medical expenses.

Unlike most health insurance, the high deductible health plan pays nothing except for preventive care until you meet a fairly high deductible. The plan may make its own contribution to the HSA in order to reduce your potential out-of-pocket costs. Tax considerations Unlike many other tax deductions, there are no income restrictions to contribute to an HSA. Contributions to an HSA reduce your federal adjusted gross income (AGI) dollar for dollar, possibly making you eligible for income-based credits or Roth IRA contributions you would not otherwise be eligible for without the HSA deduction. If your employer allows it, you can make your own contributions through pre-tax payroll deduction; this has the potential advantage that these contributions, like pre-tax insurance premiums, are not subject to Social Security and Medicare taxes, so long as the plan is classified as a Section 125 or \"\"cafeteria\"\" plan. Often, if you are below the Social Security wage base, it is only break-even or worse to use the payroll deduction because the reduced Social Security benefits cost more than the tax savings.

Note: Access to employee benefit programs and participation in those programs, as these concepts are used in the National Compensation Survey, are defined as follows: Access to a benefit plan: Employees are considered to have access to a benefit plan if it is available for their use. For example, if an employee is permitted to participate in a medical care plan offered by the employer, but the employee declines to do so, he or she is placed in a category with those having access to medical care.

It makes sense to attempt to offset some of this expense by reducing your tax bill, deducting these fees from your taxable income. The deductibility of these expenses depends on how the trustee or financial advisors handle the invoicing and payment of the fees, and if they are paid from IRA funds or not. Investment Advice The IRS has ruled in a private letter ruling that a company can deduct advisory fees separately billed and paid with non-pension fund assets. No reason exists to believe that the IRS would not apply the same ruling to an IRA owned by an individual, allowing deductibility of the same fees.

With the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes (PATH) Act of 2015, though, the QCD rules have finally been made permanent, making it easier to engage in proactive charitable giving strategies that help to minimize the tax bite of an IRA’s Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) obligations. However, obtaining the tax benefits for doing a QCD from an IRA to a charity requires meeting very specific requirements, including a minimum age limitation, a maximum dollar amount limitation, and contributing to only certain types of eligible (public) charities (rendering private foundations, donor-advised funds, and split-interest charitable trusts all ineligible). In addition, there is the most stringent requirement – though also the easiest to satisfy – that for an IRA distribution to qualify as a QCD, the check cannot be made payable to the IRA owner and instead must be made payable directly to the charitable entity (though the check payable to the charity can be sent to the IRA owner and forwarded on to the charity). Fortunately, though, with QCDs made permanent under current law, at least IRA owners have the entire year to strategize and decide whether to engage in charitable giving – but remember that once an RMD has been distributed, there’s no way to undo it and turn it into a QCD later!Permanence Of The QCD Rules After The PATH Act Of 2015The rules permitting a “Qualified Charitable Distribution” (QCD) from an IRA were first created under Section 1201 of the Pension Protection Act of 2006. However, the biggest planning challenge faced by the immediately-popular provision was that the original rule was only effective for two years – 2006 and 2007 – beyond which the QCD rules lapsed. In 2008, the QCD rules were reinstated and extended through 2009 (under the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, also known as the TARP legislation signed into law during the financial crisis), only to lapse again after 2009. QCDs were in turn brought back again for 2010 and 2011 under the fiscal cliff legislation at the end of 2010, though they were reinstated only 2 weeks before the end of the year, leaving little time for anyone to actually make a QCD (necessitating Congress to provide taxpayers a one-month extension into January of 2011 to make their 2010 QCDs!). And sadly, this pattern was repeated again 2012, when QCDs were lapsed for the entire year and then retroactively reinstated for 2012 (and extended into 2013) with the second fiscal cliff legislation, once again prompting Congress to provide a temporary extension for 2012 QCDs into early 2013." }, { "docid": "D744013#0", "title": "http://taxmap.ntis.gov/taxmap/instr/i1040gi-009.htm\nIncome (p21)", "text": "\"Instructions for Form 1040Previous Page \| Table of Contents \| Index \| Next Page Income (p21)Generally, you must report all income except income that is exempt from tax by law.

Although individual retirement accounts are supposed to be used for retirement savings, the Internal Revenue Service does allow you to take out money early. But it might cost you extra. Before you can calculate the taxes on your early IRA distribution, you must first figure out how much is actually taxable, which depends on the type of IRA. IRA distributions are taxed as ordinary income, so the rate you'll pay depends on which tax bracket you fall in. In addition to the income taxes, you'll also owe an early withdrawal penalty on the taxable portion of the distribution unless an exception applies. Calculate the taxable portion of your early IRA withdrawal. For traditional IRAs, first figure the tax-free portion by multiplying your distribution by the amount of nondeductible contributions in the IRA, divided by the IRA value. Next, figure the taxable portion by subtracting the tax-free portion from your total distribution.

For example, if you sell 1,000 shares of stock inherited form your father and priced at $40 per share at the time of his death even though he bought them for $10 each, your cost basis would be $40,000 instead of $10,000. You pay capital gains tax only if you sell the asset for more than your cost basis. When you inherit assets from an individual retirement arrangement, though, the rules are different. Traditional IRA Basis For income tax purposes, a traditional IRA funded with tax-deductible contributions has no basis. Since everything that went into it was tax-free, everything that comes out is taxable. When you take distributions from an inherited IRA, the entire distribution is taxable as regular income -- just as if it was taken from an IRA funded with your own contributions.

You saved for years to get to retirement—contributing to a traditional 401 (k) or IRA. Now it’s time to dip into those savings—even if you don't really need to. Because you got a tax break when you contributed to these accounts, once you turn age 70½ the IRS requires you to withdraw every year from your traditional IRA or employer-sponsored retirement plan account, such as a 401 (k) or 403 (b), and start paying taxes on that money. 1 It's important to determine how these required minimum distributions (RMDs) fit into your retirement income plan. \"\" Making the best use of your RMDs can help avoid costly mistakes.

Contributions (the amount you put in) to a Roth IRA are made after-tax and can be made at any time during the calendar year (or by the due date of the owner’s tax return for the year, not including extensions).

If a distribution is \"\"qualified,\"\" any earnings in the Roth IRA are not taxable when they are distributed. A distribution is \"\"qualified\"\" if it is made at least 5 years after the owner’s first contribution to the Roth IRA (counting from January 1 of the year of the first contribution), and the distribution is made:after the owner is age 59½;for a qualified first-time home purchase (up to $10,000 lifetime limit);after the owner is disabled; orto a beneficiary after the owner’s death or disability. If a distribution is \"\"not qualified,\"\" any earnings in the Roth IRA are taxable. In addition, if the owner is under age 59½, a 10% additional income tax on any earnings will apply unless an exception is available, including exceptions for payments:due to disability or after death;paid at least annually in equal or close to equal amounts over your life or life expectancy (or the lives or joint life expectancy of you and your beneficiary);for qualified higher education expenses;for health insurance premiums after the owner has received unemployment compensation for 12 consecutive weeks;for a qualified first-time home purchase (up to $10,000 lifetime limit);made directly to the government to satisfy a federal tax levy;up to the amount of deductible medical expenses; orthat constitute a qualified reservist distribution, for a member of a reserve component called to duty for more than 179 days.

Q: How much may an individual contribute to a Roth IRA? An eligible individual may contribute cash to a Roth IRA on his own behalf up to the lesser of the maximum annual contribution limit (equal to the “deductible amount” under IRC Section 219 (b) (5) (A)) or 100% of compensation includable in his gross income for the taxable year reduced by any contributions made to traditional IRAs for the taxable year on his own behalf. The maximum annual contribution limit is $5,000 for taxable years beginning in 2011 and 2012 and $5,500 in 2013 and 2014. The $5,000 amount is indexed for inflation. The maximum annual contribution limit is increased by $1,000 for individuals who have attained age 50 before the close of the tax year. SEPs and SIMPLE IRAs may not be designated as Roth IRAs, and contributions to a SEP or SIMPLE IRA will not affect the amount that an individual can contribute to a Roth IRA. Qualified rollover contributions do not count towards this limit. Roth IRA contributions are not deductible and can be made even after the individual turns age 70½. An individual may contribute cash to a Roth IRA for a non-working spouse for a taxable year up to the maximum deductible limit (disregarding active participant restrictions) permitted with respect to traditional IRAs for such non-working spouse, reduced by any such contributions made to traditional IRAs for the taxable year on behalf of the non-working spouse.

On the other hand, the IRA AGI for a Roth IRA is not reduced, because the contributions are funded with after-tax dollars. Any investment gain is also tax free. When the money is withdrawn at retirement, the amount is not taxed. Therefore, the money that is deposited into a traditional IRA is deducted from the depositor's AGI, which gives the account holder a tax break on the currently funded amount. Taxes are only owed at the time of withdrawal on a traditional IRA account. Contribution Limits The IRS places limits on the amount you can invest annually in an IRA. As of 2014, the IRA limit for contributors is $5,500 plus a $1,000 catch-up contribution for taxpayers who are 50 years old and over.

Both types of IRAs offer significant, but different tax benefits, including the way funds from the accounts are taxed when they are liquidated. Funds withdrawn from a traditional IRA will always be taxed as ordinary income while funds withdrawn from a Roth IRA may be free from federal income taxes. Roth IRAContributions to Roth IRAs are made with after-tax dollars. The funds in a Roth IRA grow tax free, and withdrawals of contributions are always made tax-free. The earnings portion of your Roth IRA become qualified after being in the account for at least five years. You may begin taking qualified withdrawals from your Roth IRA once you turn 59 1/2 years of age. Tax consequences for liquidating your Roth IRA are dependent on such factors as your age, the nature of the funds being withdrawn, and the time period the funds have been in the account. Liquidation of Contributions Since you have already paid federal income taxes on the contributions you made to your Roth IRA, you may withdraw amounts up to the total of your contributions at any time for any reason without creating a taxable event. You do not pay taxes on these funds and you do not even have to report the withdrawal of these funds." }, { "docid": "D647181#0", "title": "https://www.immediateannuities.com/required-minimum-distribution/\nRequired Minimum Distribution (RMD)", "text": "\"Home » Required Minimum Distribution Required Minimum Distribution (RMD)Written by Hersh Stern Updated Wednesday, March 14, 2018At age 70-1/2 you are required to begin withdrawing a certain percentage of your pre-tax IRA or 401k accounts each year in order to pay income tax on the amounts withdrawn.

A Roth IRA can also be an individual retirement annuity, which is an annuity contract or an endowment contract purchased from a life insurance company. As with all IRAs, the Internal Revenue Service mandates specific eligibility and filing status requirements. A Roth IRA's main advantages are its tax structure and the additional flexibility that this tax structure provides. Also, there are fewer restrictions on the investments that can be made in the plan than many other tax-advantaged plans, and this adds somewhat to their popularity, though the investment options available depend on the trustee (or the place where the plan is established). The total contributions allowed per year to all IRAs is the lesser of one's taxable compensation (which is not the same as adjusted gross income) and the limit amounts as seen below (this total may be split up between any number of traditional and Roth IRAs.

The U. S. government has offered incentives through the tax code for the use of IRAs, making them a valuable tool for accumulating retirement savings. When a person stops putting money into an IRA and begins to withdraw money from it, these withdrawals are called IRA distributions. With a traditional IRA, a periodic IRA distribution can be taken, free of any penalties, once the account owner reaches the age of 59.5 years. An IRA distribution can actually be taken at any time, though a penalty usually applies if this is done too early. Eventual withdrawal from an IRA is considered taxable income, but this does not mean that a certain amount of taxes cannot be avoided, using an IRA. For example, a person may contribute a large portion of their yearly income to an IRA, up to a certain dollar amount. These contributions can be made with pre-tax funds, meaning that a person could potentially put himself in a lower income tax bracket by contributing to his IRA. In the above case, a person will then usually retire at a given age and begin to withdraw from his IRA. His IRA distribution is considered taxable income, but his distribution likely will be lower than his income was while he was working." }, { "docid": "D150088#0", "title": "http://www.kiplinger.com/article/retirement/T046-C000-S004-consider-a-roth-ira-for-tax-free-income.html\nConsider a Roth IRA for Tax-Free Income", "text": "\"This Q&A answers essential questions about adding a Roth account to your nest egg.

While saving and investing are relatively straightforward within TSP, making withdrawals when you actually make it to retirement can be much more complicated. Here are the options available and some important factors to consider when making your decisions. TSP Withdrawal Options There are many working and retired federal employees that utilize the TSP throughout their careers, and will at some point begin taking withdrawals. The TSP itself, though, has limited resources available for servicing those accounts. In order to make it manageable for the agency, the withdrawal options are limited to just a few. They include a one-time partial withdrawal, full withdrawal, a series of monthly payments, or an annuity. Funds can also be moved to an IRA account, to be withdrawn from there.

Share Annuities, IRAs Answers Sort By: Most Helpful July 2014+ Follow Investopedia New York, NYwww.investopedia.com93 % of people found this answer helpful Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) and annuities both provide the opportunity to grow money on a tax-deferred basis, but there are differences between the two. An IRA can be thought of as an individual savings account with tax benefits. You open an IRA for yourself (that's why it's called an individual retirement account) and if you have a spouse, you'll have to open separate accounts . An important distinction to make is that an IRA is not an investment itself; rather, it is an account where you keep investments such as stocks, bonds and mutual funds. You get to choose the investments in the account, and can change the investments if you wish. Your return depends on the performance of the investments held in the IRA. An IRA continues to accumulate contributions and interest until you reach retirement age, meaning you could have an IRA for decades before making any withdrawals. IRAs are defined and regulated by the IRS, which sets eligibility requirements, limits on how and when you can make contributions, take distributions, and determines the tax treatment for various the various types of IRAs. For example, for 2014 the maximum you can contribute to your traditional or Roth IRA is the smaller of $5,500 ($6,500 if you're age 50 or older) or your taxable income for the year." }, { "docid": "D1038063#0", "title": "http://www.rothira.org/early-withdrawal-penalties.html\nIs there a Penalty for Early Withdrawal on a Roth IRA?", "text": "YOUR GUIDE TO Roth IRA INFORMATION & RESOURCESIs there a Penalty for Early Withdrawal on a Roth IRA? When you're looking at ways to fund your retirement, you'll almost certainly end up looking at tax friendly retirement accounts. These types of accounts, which include Roth IRAs, traditional IRAs, and 401 (k) accounts, are tax friendly because of rules and regulations that the federal government has created. These regulations allow you to either take a deduction on your income taxes at the time you make the contribution to the retirement account or at the time you collect the gains. The reason the federal government has created these types of tax beneficial retirement accounts is to encourage Americans to save money toward retirement, such as by using a Roth IRA account. The opportunity to save some money on income taxes, either now or in the future, is a significant benefit to people considering the pros and cons of Roth IRAs, so they're willing to place their money in these types of accounts. However, the downside to these regulations is that if you later end up needing that money to meet your household expenses, you'll have to pay a penalty for undergoing an early withdrawal. So, why is there a penalty for early withdrawal on a Roth IRA? Basically, the penalty goes back to the idea that the federal government wants to make sure citizens are saving for retirement. Because of the penalty, most people will very carefully consider whether they should try to withdraw that money in the Roth IRA retirement account, or whether they should try to find another way to meet those household expenses, thereby leaving the money in the retirement account untouched." }, { "docid": "D857319#0", "title": "https://www.thebalance.com/the-scoop-on-roth-iras-are-withdrawals-tax-free-or-not-2388706\nThe Scoop on Roth Iras - Are Withdrawals Tax-Free or Not?", "text": "Before Retirement IRAs The Scoop on Roth Iras - Are Withdrawals Tax-Free or Not?

Your Roth IRA withdrawals may be taxable if: You’ve not met the 5-year rule for opening the Roth and you are under age 59 ½ : You will pay income taxes and a 10% penalty tax on earnings that are withdrawn.

Two of the main reasons attributable to this include that the Roth offers tax-free withdrawal of contributions and earnings upon reaching retirement and that the Roth has no Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) withdrawals at age 70 1/2. Unfortunately, based on your earned income, not everyone can directly contribute to a Roth IRA. Why the Roth IRA? As a single taxpayer, if you have earned income (modified AGI) of $125,000 or greater, you cannot contribute to a Roth IRA. For married individuals, this amount is $183,000 (these current limits for 2012 can be indexed upward annually). However, anyone can contribute up to $5,000 per year (indexed for 2012) to a Traditional IRA regardless of the amount of his or her earned income, just as long as his or her contribution does not exceed the lesser of $5,000 or the amount of his or her earned income. ( Age 50 or older also has a $1,000 additional catch-up amount)Traditional IRA Vs. the Non-Deductible IRA Up to certain earned income limitations (that typically change annually), taxpayers in lower tax brackets can receive an IRA contribution deduction on their federal tax returns for deposits made to a Traditional IRA for the year. If you happen to earn over the IRS limits, you can still contribute to an IRA, but you will not be entitled to an IRA contribution deduction on your tax return." }, { "docid": "D91480#0", "title": "http://www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/091815/how-does-roth-ira-grow-over-time.asp\nHow does a Roth IRA grow over time?", "text": "\"« Advisor Insights How does a Roth IRA grow over time? Share IRAs Answers Sort By: Most Helpful September 2015+ Follow Investopedia New York, NYwww.investopedia.com90 % of people found this answer helpful Your Roth IRA account grows over time thanks to two funding sources: contributions and earnings. While your contributions to your individual retirement account, or IRA, are the most obvious source of growth, the potential for your savings to earn interest and the power of interest compounding are equally important factors. What Is A Roth IRA? IRAs are popular savings vehicles among those who understand the importance of planning ahead for retirement. Rather than relying on the retirement savings accumulated through payroll deferrals made to an employer-sponsored savings plan such as a 401 (k), IRAs allow even the self-employed to contribute during working years to ensure financial stability later in life. The defining characteristic of a Roth IRA is the source of contributions. Like 401 (k) plans, contributions to traditional IRAs are made with pretax dollars, meaning you must pay income tax when you withdraw the funds later. Contributions to Roth IRAs, conversely, are made with after-tax dollars, so any contributions you make are yours to withdraw tax-free at your discretion.

Matthew Malone Roth IRAs are a great, tax-efficient way to save for your retirement. What Is a Roth IRA? A Roth IRA is a special retirement account that you fund with post-tax income (you can’t deduct your contributions on your income taxes). Once you have done this, all future withdrawals that follow Roth IRA regulations are tax free. There is no up-front tax deduction for Roth IRA contributions, as there is with a traditional IRA, On the other hand, Roth distributions are tax-free when you follow the rules. And because every penny you stash in a Roth IRA is your money—not a tax-subsidized gift from Uncle Sam—you can tap your contributions (but not your earnings on those contributions) at any time, tax-free and penalty-free.

When it comes to individual retirement accounts (IRAs) many wonder whether to open a Traditional or Roth IRA. Though they share a few characteristics and have similar names, the different nuances between the two could affect an individual’s retirement goals much differently What Is a Roth IRA? Individual Retirement Accounts, simply known as IRAs, are a great tax-advantaged savings and investment vehicle to help prepare for retirement. Traditional IRAs allow for contributions to be made with income deposited before being taxed, but distributions are taxed as normal income. On the other hand, Roth IRAs mandate that contributions are made with after-tax income, but distributions can then be tax free. Another benefit that IRAs have over some other retirement vehicles is that within each respective IRA, investment transactions and earnings (such as capital gains and dividends) are exempt from their normal taxes. This benefit allows for the possibility of well paying dividend stocks building up wealth within your account and away from the taxman.

To see a complete rundown of just how superior, check out this side-by-side comparison. However, the Roth IRA rules are different from the Traditional IRA rules so it's important to understand how these special tax shelters work if you plan on using them to build wealth while collecting dividends, interest, and rents tax-free. By covering the more important of these rules you might be able to better protect yourself from some unpleasant, and expensive, consequences. Roth IRA Rules for Income Limit Eligibility in Tax Year 2014Unfortunately, one of the strictest Roth IRA rules has to do with income limit eligibility. In order to qualify for a Roth IRA in any given tax year, you have to earn less than the maximum modified adjusted gross income figure published by the IRS. This modified AGI is based upon several calculations and involves taking your adjusted gross income and adding back certain retirement deductions, rental losses, student loan interest, self-employment tax, and a few other lines on the tax return. For tax year 2014, this means: Roth IRA Rules for Income Limit Eligibility - Married Couples Filing Jointly in Tax Year 2014Married, filing jointly: $181,000 or less = Full Roth IRA eligibility Married filing jointly: $181,001 to $191,000 = Begin phase out of Roth IRA eligibility Married filing jointly: $191,000 or more = Not eligible to fund a Roth IRA under the existing rules Roth IRA Rules for Income Limit Eligibility - Married Couples Filing Separately in Tax Year 2014Married, filing separately: $0 = Full Roth IRA eligibility Married, filing separately: $1 to $9,999 = Begin phase out of Roth IRA eligibility Married, filing separately: $10,000 or more = Not eligible to fund a Roth IRA under the existing rules Roth IRA Rules for Income Limit Eligibility - Single People in Tax Year 2014Single: $114,000 or less = Full Roth IRA eligibility Single: $114,001 to $129,000 = Begin phase out of Roth IRA eligibility Single: $129,000 or more = Not eligible to fund a Roth IRA under the existing rules If you find that you're not eligible to fund an account under the Roth IRA rules, never fear.

But the UN Security Council is more divided than ever about implementing these coercive measures. Backgrounder by Robert Mc Mahon November 17, 2006This publication is now archived. Introduction The UN’s checkered history with sanctions includes the organization’s worst scandal —linked to the Iraq oil-for-food program—as well as numerous poorly enforced measures aimed at blocking the flow of weapons to Africa’s civil war combatants during the 1990s. But the UN Security Council continues to make extensive use of sanctions and leading states such as the United States regularly promote sanctions to try to rein in behavior they regard as threatening to peace and security. Most recently, the Council imposed sanctions on North Korea in response to its nuclear weapons test, and is considering sanctions against the Iranian government for its lack of transparency about its nuclear program. The nature of UN sanctions has changed in the past decade away from comprehensive measures levied against states to targeted sanctions aimed at individuals and small groups or entities. Some experts say this shift, when combined with other levers outside the United Nations, can make sanctions more effective.

Farhad Nili, head of the Monetary and Banking Research Institute, noted earlier this week that sanctions have left Iran with \"\"compulsory savings\"\" abroad, an opportunity that he said \"\"must be seized in a best way. \"\" The Central Bank of Iran (CBI) has in the past 18 months focused on curbing inflation, which is an effective factor on the rial’s parity rate against the US dollar as the dominant reserve currency. Inflation, which once stood at 40%, reached 15.5% in the 12 months ending April 20, a great achievement for the moderate administration that took power with an agenda to recover the economy. Late in April, the regulator eventually decided to lower interest rates, putting a 20% cap for deposit rates (down from 22%) and 24% limit for lending rates (down from 28%). Observers believe the third step the CBI may take is a decision to unify the dual foreign exchange rates, a policy the administration has been sitting on since mid-2013. Some economists believe a unified system could be a boon for Iran's business environment, as it would reduce corruption and rent-seeking, a phenomenon widely believed to be a major setback for the struggling economy. In April, Tahmasb Mazaheri, a former CBI governor, told Nasim Online that the administration “should not waste time by putting off the unification plan for the post-sanctions era.” Sohrab Delangiz, another monetary expert, also believes the dual-rate system gives “ wrong signals ” to investors. The rial’s value, he argues, should approach a more \"\"realistic\"\" level — possibly around 37,000 rials against the US dollar or as others suggest around 52,000 rials, taking into account the 50% inflation rate collectively registered in Iran and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development over the past two years." }, { "docid": "D2558707#0", "title": "http://money.cnn.com/2018/01/01/news/economy/iran-economy-protests/index.html\nProtesters angry over economy, corruption", "text": "\"Protesters angry over economy, corruption The biggest anti-government protests in Iran since 2009 have turned the spotlight on President Hassan Rouhani's economic record.

Robin Burgess, senior underwriter at Centriq Insurance explains …The ongoing Iranian nuclear standoff is a good example to illustrate the implementation of sanctions and the effects thereof on the International Insurance market: On 25 May 2011, the English Court of Appeal issued judgment on a dispute over the validity of the cancellation of a marine policy under an Iran sanctions clause, the scope for renewals, and the extension to policies to be prohibited under existing EU (European Union) sanctions against Iran. The decision had implications for all classes of insurance and reinsurance business as the scope of the EU sanctions on Iran was in fact significantly wider than what previous market guidance have suggested. Using the example of the ongoing breakdown of nuclear talks between Iran and the West, we will see the impact it has on the Insurance Industry.

By monitoring the fluctuations of these break-even prices in major oil-producing countries such as Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait and the UAE, we can assess potential changes in OPEC’s desired level of global oil prices. Saudi Arabia Due to higher spending and a decline in crude exports, Saudi Arabia’s fiscal break-even oil price rose higher than expected last year. Over the medium-term, Saudi Arabia is likely to face escalating pressure to reduce its oil output, paving the way for other OPEC members to increase their own production. Curtailing output, however, is likely to raise Saudi’s fiscal break-even oil price and force the government to rein in public spending, or risk a temporary budget deficit. Already, various stimulus packages introduced in response to the 2008 global financial crisis and Arab Spring have been wound down – causing economic growth to weaken. Estimates point to a reduction of 200,000 barrels per day (b/d) in oil output and exports during 2014, which will sharply increase Saudi Arabia’s fiscal break-even oil price to approximately $97 per barrel (bbl). Coupled with mounting domestic fiscal pressure, tensions among OPEC members could be amplified as the debate over individual country output quotas is put in the spotlight. Despite the risk of rising non-OPEC supply depressing the overall daily call on OPEC output, we would still expect Saudi Arabia to scale back production so other member states can increase their supply. The extent of this scaling back, however, will depend on the level at which the more disrupted OPEC producers increase their output, particularly as several of these countries face ongoing sectarian, political and terrorism-linked disruptions." }, { "docid": "D353901#0", "title": "https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/datablog/2015/jul/21/which-countries-still-affected-us-sanctions\nWhich countries are still affected by US sanctions?", "text": "US foreign policy Datablog Which countries are still affected by US sanctions?

The revised forecast reflects a further slowing in global economic performance, high current oil inventories, and expectations that Iranian oil exports will rise after the lifting of international sanctions, according to the Bank’s new Commodity Markets Outlook, a quarterly update on the state of the international commodity markets. The Bank’s Energy Price Index tumbled 17 percent in the third quarter of 2015 from the previous three-month period, led by a renewed plunge in oil prices prompted by expectations of slower global growth, particularly in China and other emerging markets, abundant supplies, and prospects of higher Iranian exports next year. Energy prices are expected to average 43 percent lower in 2015 than in 2014. For commodities excluding energy, the World Bank reports a 5 percent decline in prices in Q3, and forecasts that non-energy prices will register a 14 percent decline in 2015 from the previous year’s levels. “We see a five-year-long slide in most commodity prices continuing in the third quarter of 2015. There are sufficient inventories of oil and other commodities and demand is weak, especially for industrial commodities, which is why prices may stay persistently low,” said John Baffes, Senior Economist and lead author of Commodity Markets Outlook. Impact of El Niño on commodity markets Despite expectations of one of the strongest El Niño episodes on record, the weather pattern, which affects winds and water temperatures of the Pacific Ocean and changes precipitation levels, especially in the Southern Hemisphere, is unlikely to cause a spike in global agricultural prices because of ample supplies of most agricultural commodities and weak links between global and domestic prices. This is consistent with the limited impact on global markets of past El Niño episodes. To date, global agricultural prices have declined while those of key domestic markets have not shown large deviations from trends due to El Niño." }, { "docid": "D3323431#0", "title": "http://www.baltimoresun.com/business/bs-bz-persian-rug-embargo-lifted-20160222-story.html\nPersian rugs will be imported once again after Iran embargo lifted", "text": "\"Timonium, MD -- Esmail Borhani, owner of Borhani Rug Company, is the fourth-generation in the business.

Al Jazeera spoke with four analysts about why Saudi Arabia and other Gulf countries, along with Israel, are upset about the agreement. Mansour al-Marzouki, Saudi researcher A nuclear deal with Tehran, from the Saudi perspective, means two things: Iran will have the ability to improve its economic standing, and the capability to create a nuclear weapon - since the deal will only take effect for a relatively short period of time, 15 years, and will not destroy Iran's technical capabilities to maintain a nuclear programme. Both results would strengthen Iran and its allies in the region. The Saudis believe that trimming Iran's regional influence would increase the chances of a better nuclear deal in the future. This context of an increasing Iranian influence that thrives on weak central governments and sectarian instability - as seen in Lebanon, Iraq and Yemen - is what ISIL capitalises on in its recruitment drive, according to the Saudi view. The immediate Saudi reaction to the deal will likely include attempts to revivethe dual structure of the regional order: Saudi versus Iran, which existed until the Arab uprisings in 2011 led to the formation of a third camp comprised of Turkey, Qatar and the Muslim Brotherhood. This camp and Saudi Arabia both exhausted their resources while competing for regional influence, ultimately benefiting Iran. An indicator of the return to the old regional order is the Saudi-led coalition against the Houthi rebels in Yemen. This military campaign has two goals: neutralising non-state actors, which means strengthening the central government, and combating sectarian-inspired conflicts and regional instability." } ]

From advisory fees to trading costs, the fees siphoned from your retirement account could add up to 3 percent, and even 5 percent of your account assets annually, says Daniel Solin, author of “The Smartest 401 (k) Book You’ll Ever Read.” For investors, these seemingly modest fees add up to big bucks. Just a 1 percentage point difference in fees can dramatically reduce the size of your nest egg over time. For example, a worker who saves $5,000 a year for 35 years and earns an annualized 8 percent return net of fees would end up with $861,584 — versus $691,184 for someone who earns 7 percent after fees. That amounts to a 25 percent reduction in wealth for the worker with higher fees. While Congress is currently considering legislation that would require greater fee disclosure and the inclusion of a low-cost index fund option in a 401 (k) plan, right now most plan holders have to dig deeply to find out how much they’re forking over — and they still may not know despite their due diligence.

Davie The tax benefits of retirement plans such as 401 (k)s and Roth IRAs are well-known; but what many people do not know, is that such plans also provide an added benefit of asset protection. The assets contained within these plans are often exempt from execution on civil court judgments and debtors are also permitted to retain them after Federal bankruptcy proceedings, even in a Chapter 7 liquidation. The most famous (or rather infamous) use of these rules to shield assets from creditors is that of former NFL star and accused murderer OJ Simpson, who was permitted to keep his NFL pension (which is treated similar to a 401 (k)) after being successfully sued in civil court for causing the death of Ronald Goldman. While the unfortunate and unsavory facts of this case might seem to make it an unlikely role model for your financial plan, the fact is, regardless of one’s personal beliefs as to Simpson’s guilt or innocence, the same legal protections he used are available to all residents of the United States who face potential legal liability. Business owners and professionals are frequent targets of lawsuits. Effective asset protection planning can alleviate some of these risks by putting your retirement assets out of reach from potential plaintiff’s attorneys. The most protected form of retirement account is the so-called “qualified retirement plan” which is protected under the Federal ERISA statute. This category includes traditional pensions like Simpson’s NFL pension, but also includes more common “defined contribution” pension arrangements like 401 (k) and 403 (b) plans. For all of these types of pension plans, retirement assets are completely exempt from civil court judgments and can be retained by a debtor after bankruptcy. The protections in bankruptcy proceedings (but not against civil judgments) also extend to Rollover IRA accounts, in which the assets of a 401 (k) from a previous employer are “rolled over” into an IRA." }, { "docid": "D351774#0", "title": "http://www.justicemattersactioncenter.org/is-my-401k-protected-in-a-lawsuit/\nIs My 401k Protected In A Lawsuit", "text": "\"Is My 401k Protected In A Lawsuit On a very general level, class action lawsuits involve a group of people in some capacity: A collective class, held together over the issue of a faulty product, suing a defendant, or a group of defendants, individual negligent companies, as an example, being sued by a single person. While most class action suits are filed for product liability claims, other case types end up in court, too, including groups of shareholders suing for fraud, employees for discrimination, and residents over environmental disasters.

For many consumers with debt problems, after the debt collector leaves their lives, the taxman arrives. Months after successfully resolving credit card debts, consumers may receive 1099-C “Cancellation of Debt” tax notices in the mail. Why? The IRS considers forgiven or canceled debt as income. Creditors and debt collectors that agree to accept at least $600 less than the original balance are required by law to file 1099-C forms with the IRS and to send debtors notices as well. The more than 4 million taxpayers a year who receive the forms must report that portion of forgiven debt as “income” on their federal income tax returns.1099-C tax surprise If a debt is forgiven or canceled, the IRS requires lenders to issue a 1099-C tax form to the borrower to show the amount of debt not paid.

This can occur when you have either modified your loan using a loan modification program or lost your home in a foreclosure. Up until 2007, the forgiven debt was taxed as income, adding to the distressed homeowner's financial burden. But under the Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act of 2007, the forgiven debt has been rendered tax-free. This law will remain in effect until December 31, 2012. If it's not extended, homeowners who lost their homes after that date will have to pay taxes on their forgiven mortgage debt. Understanding Mortgage Forgiveness When a mortgage lender sells you a mortgage, it expects that you will eventually pay it back.

The other repayment plans are Income-Contingent Repayment (ICR), Pay-As-You-Earn Repayment (PAYE), Revised Pay-As-You-Earn Repayment (REPAYE) , and Alternative Repayment.

The poverty line is based on the borrower’s family size and state of residence.

Federal Restitution is a confusing thing for most people and there is not much information to explain it. Many people have large amounts of restitution that you are being ordered to pay and realistically they can never pay it back. The government knows you can’t pay it back, but they will try their hardest to get as much as they can. The Mandatory Restitution Act of 1996 established procedures for determining the amount of restitution to which a victim may be entitled, and if there was loses, it requires a sentencing court to impose restitution in the full amount of the victim’s losses, without regard to the defendant’s ability to pay. There is obviously a concern over the size of uncollected federal restitution, estimated as roughly $46 billion. Much of federal restitution is uncollectible due to the fact that the defendants are indigent That is the major issue with restitution, once someone has been convicted of a crime and have a criminal record their earning potential is greatly diminished, and just affording daily living expenses becomes a challenge for most people with a criminal record, additionally, on top of that, they are expected to pay a percentage of their income to the government. When you are sentenced and the judge sets a restitution for you, they may set some repayment options for you.

Tweet Share 3 +1 21 Share 2 Stumble Pin26Is a 1099 from a Creditor After My Bankruptcy Case was Completed Considered Taxable Income? A very important question I’m often asked this time of year by my clients is what effect does their bankruptcy have, if any, on their income taxes. The exact question is whether or not debts discharged (forgiven) in a bankruptcy case must be included as income on federal or state income tax returns. This often arises when a client receives a Form 1099 statement from a creditor after their discharge in bankruptcy has been granted. Creditors send 1099 statements when they are required to, but this does not necessarily mean that the amount on the 1099 form must be included in the taxpayer’s gross income for that year. Debts Discharged in Bankruptcy are NOT Included in the Taxpayer’s Income In general, outside of bankruptcy, if a creditor forgives a debt that is owed by you, then that may need to be included in income. However, there is an exception to this rule pursuant to Internal Revenue Code section 108 which provides that debts “forgiven” (i.e. discharged) in a bankruptcy case do NOT need to be included as income for forgiveness of debt. However, even though the discharged debts are not part of a debtor’s gross income, the amount discharged can be required to reduce any tax attributes that the debtor/taxpayer may have, such as net operating losses, capital loss carryforwards, basis reductions and others.

In the past few weeks in my Los Angeles, California practice, I have had several potential (and existing) clients tell me that the bank which holds the junior mortgage (e.g. 2nd or 3rd trust deed) on their house has suddenly forgiven the debt and voluntarily released their lien against the property. What is even more astounding about this is that it is being done without the borrower even requesting it–the banks are just doing it on their own! Typically this is the kind of result we lawyers can achieve for bankruptcy clients by doing what is known as a “lien-strip” in a Chapter 13 case where the value of the property is less than the amount owed to the first mortgage. Unfortunately, such a gift may have significant unforeseen consequences to the borrower whose loan is being forgiven. What About Taxes? As Shakespeare wrote in Hamlet, “Aye, there’s the rub”. While it’s very magnanimous, if not commendable, for banks to voluntarily forgive these debts and release their liens, it’s not without cost to the borrower/homeowner. In many cases, forgiveness of debt is taxable income according to the Internal Revenue Code ( 26 U. S.

The first statute of limitations you have to worry about is the time the IRS has to go back and examine (or audit) your income tax return. The IRS has three years from when your tax is assessed to audit your return. That means, if you filed your 2008 tax returns on time, before April 15, 2009, the IRS will assess your taxes on April 15, 2009 and they have until April 15, 2012 to audit that return. If they do not audit your 2008 return by that time then you don’t have to worry about them coming after you for that period. The second, and probably the most important statute of limitations to you, is how long the IRS has to collect the tax from you. The IRS has 10 years to collect your income taxes. If they do not collect the income taxes from you within ten years from the date your taxes are assessed, then your tax debt – no matter how much – will be forgiven.

Before You Begin Credit Card Debt Negotiation First, before we continue, let me congratulate you on the decision to solve a problem that is no doubt causing you significant personal stress. It's no secret that before you can invest and build wealth for yourself and your family, you must destroy your credit card debt as it frequently is one of, if not, the most expensive debts you can incur; every penny of interest expense flowing out the door is a penny you can't use to grow your personal portfolio. Second, let me assure you that it is possible to live without credit card debt. In fact, credit card debt simply isn't a problem for most American families; a secret that nobody but economists seem to want to discuss.

Many federal tax provisions are indexed for inflation, which means they can increase or decrease automatically as one year rolls over into the next. Others change when Congress steps in to adjust them to keep pace with the current economic climate. In either case, these are the basic adjustments for 2017. President Trump’s sweeping tax changes regarding tax brackets and the standard deduction had not yet happened by mid-year. Tax brackets remain the same at 10, 15, 25, 28, 33, 35 and 39.6 percent. The only really significant change here relates to who falls into that 39.6 percent tax bracket.

Spots can be as harmless as freckles or a sign or symptom of a serious disease. If you have any concerns about dark spots that develop on your legs or other parts of your body, it’s best to consult with your family physician or a dermatologist. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Age Spots Age spots, also known as liver spots or solar lentigo, usually appear after years of sun exposure. Health-Cares.net reports they’re most common in people older than 55 and can occur almost anywhere on the body, especially areas that have seen a lot of sun or suffered from sunburns. The spots are nothing but collections of skin pigment that have accumulated in the top layer of skin and can be removed in a number of ways, such as by laser treatment, freezing, acids or skin sanding. Freckles Freckles are usually found on the face and arms, but they can appear on legs, too. These small brown spots are harmless and can be a product of genetics or sun exposure. They’re most common in fair-skinned people.

Other skin problems happen mostly or only to people with diabetes. These include diabetic dermopathy, necrobiosis lipoidica diabeticorum, diabetic blisters, and eruptive xanthomatosis.

By A ROctober 11, 2011Itchy Shins The shin is the area located directly on the anterior portion of the lower leg, right below the knee. It is the leg quarter in front of the tibia, commonly known as the shinbone. This bone is where the area derives its name from. Itchiness in this area may take precedence or follow an irritation or inflammation of the skin. Itchy shins may display flaky, dry, scaly or inflamed skin. Irritation is characterized by redness, rashes, some pain and noticeable heat from the area. What are the Causes of Itchy Shins Itchy shin causes range from the mundane to more complex and threatening diseases. Usually a person can determine whether the cause of the itchiness is of a minor nature. When in doubt, if the itchiness continues for a sustained period of time or if the itchiness worsens, the best thing to do is to consult a physician." }, { "docid": "D3406842#0", "title": "http://suzycohen.com/articles/diabetes_supplement_thyroid_glucoscript/\nThe Signs of Diabetes Mimic Thyroid Disease", "text": "The Signs of Diabetes Mimic Thyroid Disease Today’s article is about the thyroid and diabetes connection, and I will also cover risk factors, kidney disease and Hashimoto’s, gluten and much more.

If you have my diabetes book, then you knew about it almost 6 years ago. The Scary Truth If you don’t uncover the thyroid dysfunction, you could end up with complications of diabetes such as vision loss, heart attack or kidney disease. This may come as a surprise, but there is actually a very strong correlation between diabetes and hypothyroidism. Both of these disorders share one thing in common: Improper use of their associated hormone. So with diabetes, it is the improper use (or utilization) of insulin, whereas with hypothyroidism, it’s the improper use (or utilization) of thyroxine. These are two totally different hormones, but the net result is the same and the miserable symptoms are the same, and unfortunately, the frequency of misdiagnoses with these two conditions is rather high.

Sometimes the red lesions will fade to a darker patch on the skin. The red spots on your legs can congregate around your feet and ankles or they can work their way up the whole leg, even spreading to other areas of the body. It is important to keep track of the details of the red spots on your legs so that you can adequately explain them to your doctor. Red spots that persist with unknown cause should be examined by a physician. Common Causes of Red Spots on Legs Atopic dermatitis - Atopic dermatitis is the most common cause of red spots on the legs.

It can be very difficult to break this cycle of escalating itching, scratching, and inflammation.

Various signs and symptoms of an underlying internal disease can be first recognized by what is taking place on the skin. Fortunately, many of these conditions, when spotted by a dermatologist, can be treated before they become serious or life threatening. In this article, we discuss the signs and symptoms of internal disease. Diabetes Some of the earliest signs of diabetes are manifested in the skin. Overweight and diabetic patients may gradually develop a darkened and velvety texture to their skin folds, such as in the neck and underarms. This is known as acanthosis nigricans, and it can be a sign that blood sugar levels are elevated to higher than normal levels. Diabetic patients may also notice brown and discolored patches on their shins, which can occur spontaneously, or after injury to the skin. A generalized bronzing of skin can also be a sign of elevated blood sugars.

Researchers believe that the diabetes epidemic will escalate, and predict that in 2050, one in three Americans will have diabetes. About a third of people with diabetes will develop skin problems such as skin sores or a leg rash. In fact, according to the American Diabetes Association (ADA), some skin problems can be warning signs of diabetes in those who are undiagnosed.

Symptoms may start as a tingling (paresthesia) and change to a numbness, or there may be a combination of decreased sensation (numbness) but with heightened sensations at certain times or with stimulation. Any type of tingling, burning, or numbness is usually a symptom related to a sensory nerve being damaged, diseased, or injured. Causes depend on the exact location of the paresthesia sensations, but typically include a physical nerve injury type condition (e.g. a nerve entrapment or some type of pressure being applied to a nerve directly or to the spinal attachment of that nerve), or a disease condition affecting the nerves (e.g. neuropathy, diabetic neuropathy, multiple sclerosis, diabetes, and others). Having these sensory symptoms in multiple locations, or the recurrence of similar symptoms in different locations is a hallmark symptom of multiple sclerosis , so your doctor will likely ask about the past history of similar symptoms to assess the likelihood of multiple sclerosis as a diagnosis (see symptoms of multiple sclerosis ).

What The Ivory-billed Woodpecker ( Campephilus principalis) is an extremely rare member of the woodpecker family, Picidae. It is officially listed as an endangered species, but by the end of the 20th century had widely been considered extinct until it was apparently sighted along the Cache River in Arkansas in 2004 and 2005. Inhabiting the bottomland hardwoods and montane pine forests of southeastern United States and Cuba, this woodpecker population has suffered as its habitat was cleared for agriculture and lumber. The Ivory-billed Woodpecker is sometimes referred to as the Grail Bird, the Lord God Bird, or the Good God Bird. About The Ivory-billed Woodpecker is a large black and white woodpecker. Males have a red crest; females have a black head and crest. White wing patches and a stripe down the side of its neck continuing down its back distinguish it from the Pileated Woodpecker. It does not undulate like other woodpeckers when it flies, but rather flies swiftly like a pintail duck. Its drum is a single or double rap, and its alarm call, a 'kent' or 'hant' sounding like a toy trumpet repeated in a series or as a double note." } ]	[ { "docid": "D1278585#0", "title": "http://www.oceanlight.com/birds.html\nList of Bird Species -- Bird Photos", "text": "Actitis macularius Aix sponsa Wood duck Range: Southern Canada to Northern Mexico Amphispiza bilineata Black-throated sparrow Anas acuta Northern pintail Anas americana American wigeon Anas clypeata Anas crecca Green-winged teal Synonyms: green teal Anas discors Blue-winged teal Anas platyrhynchos Mallard Anous stolidus Brown noddy Aphelocoma ultramarina Mexican Jay Aptenodytes patagonicus King penguin Aquila chrysaetos Golden eagle Synonyms: gold eagle Ardea alba Great egret Synonyms: white egret, great white egret Ardea herodias Great blue heron Range: North America Synonyms: blue heron Athene cunicularia Burrowing owl Athene cunicularia hypugaea Burrowing owl Aythya affinis Lesser scaup Aythya collaris Ring-necked duck Baeolophus wollweberi Bridled titmouse Branta bernicla Brant Synonyms: Brant goose Branta canadensis Canada goose Synonyms: Canada geese Bucephala albeola Bufflehead Butorides sundevalli Lava heron Callipepla gambelii Gambel's quail Campylorhynchus brunneicapillus Cactus wren Cardinalis cardinalis Northern cardinal Cardinalis sinuatus Pyrrhuloxia Carpodacus mexicanus House finch Catoptrophorus semipalmatus Catoptrophurus semipalmatus Willet Chen caerulescens Snow goose Chloephaga hybrida Kelp goose Chloephaga hybrida malvinarum Kelp goose Chloephaga picta Upland goose Creagrus furcata Swallowtail gull Synonyms: swallow-tailed gull, swallowtailed gull Cyanocitta stelleri Steller's jay Synonyms: blue jay Diomedea exulans Wandering albatross Diomedea irrorata Waved albatross Egretta thula Snowy egret Eudyptes chrysocome Rockhopper penguin Eudyptes chrysocome chrysocome Western rockhopper penguin Eudyptes chrysolophus Macaroni penguin Fratercula arctica Fregata magnificens Magnificent frigatebird Synonyms: Magnificent frigate bird Fregata minor Great frigatebird Synonyms: Great frigate bird Fregata sp.

Non-breeding California brown pelicans range northward along the Pacific Coast from the Gulf of California to Washington and southern British Columbia. Roosting and loafing sites provide important resting habitat for breeding and non-breeding birds. Important roosting sites include offshore rocks and islands, river mouths with sand bars, breakwaters, pilings, and jetties along the Pacific Coast and San Francisco Bay. Notable: The brown pelican was listed as endangered in 1970 because of widespread pollutant-related reproductive failures. They are extremely sensitive to bioaccumulation of the pesticide DDT, which causes reproductive failure by altering calcium metabolism and thinning eggshells. In 1985, brown pelicans on the Atlantic Coast, had recovered enough that they could be removed from the endangered species list. Although California breeding populations have rebounded since the elimination of DDT use, persistent residues in the coastal environment continue to cause chronic reproductive problems. Despite the banning of DDT, some birds still show relatively high levels of pesticides in their tissues." }, { "docid": "D621358#0", "title": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_birds_by_common_name\nList of birds by common name", "text": "From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search See also: List of birds‹ The template below ( Incomplete) is being considered for deletion.

And the nesting site. Not all woodpeckers nest in trees by the way.

They originally occurred in upland pine forests, but by 1891 they nested mainly in baldcypress swamps and foraged in the drier margins where the swamps met upland pine forests. In Louisiana, where Jim Tanner made his classic study of Ivory-bills during the 1930s, he found them in essentially undisturbed areas of mature forest that included both dry uplands and flooded swamps. The main tree species in this area were sweetgum, Nuttall’s oak, green ash, American elm, willow and water oaks, and sugarberry (hackberry). Tanner estimated that one pair of Ivory-billed Woodpeckers occupied about 6 square miles of forest. The Cuba subspecies was also affected by logging and by the mid-1800s was restricted to pine uplands. Back to top Food Ivory-billed Woodpeckers ate mostly large beetle larvae of the longhorn, jewel, and click beetle families. To a lesser extent they also ate the much smaller larvae of the bark beetle family, including the southern pine beetle. These beetle species can reach large numbers in areas where fire, floods, and other disturbances create stands of dead trees—a feature that Ivory-bills sought out. They typically used their large bills to strip the bark from dead trees and fallen logs, or less frequently made deep excavations into the wood as Pileated Woodpeckers do." }, { "docid": "D1202507#0", "title": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red-headed_woodpecker\nRed-headed woodpecker", "text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Not to be confused with Red-bellied woodpecker.

If that sounds like exaggeration, it is helpful to remember that the entire watershed drains all or parts of thirty-one states, two Canadian provinces, and over 1,000,000 square miles before it finally reaches the Gulf. A geologically complex area, most defining feature of the MSRAP is the Mississippi River itself, which flows south over the Mississippi Embayment, a structural trough in the earth’s crust that, over the past one-to-two hundred million years, has thrust alternately upward and downward relative to the sea. Headwater or mainstem flooding results from rainstorms over the watersheds of the Mississippi's tributaries, and produces great spring floods that have been a boon to agriculture and the bane of riverfront communities. Climate Winters are mild and summers are hot, with temperatures and annual average precipitation increasing from the north to south. ( http://www.eoearth.org/article/Ecoregions_of_the_Mississippi_Alluvial_Plain_%28EPA%29) Precipitation averages 45 to 65 in (1,150 to 1,650 mm) annually. Temperature averages 56 to 70F. (14 to 21C). The growing season lasts 200 to 340 days. Plants & Animals On the Mississippi River Alluvial Plain, changes in elevation of only a few inches can result in great differences in soil saturation characteristics and thus the species of plants that thrive. As a result, there is much variability within a bottomland hardwood ecosystem, ranging from the bald cypress/tupelo swamp community that develops on frequently inundated sites, to the cherrybark oak/pecan community found on sites subjected to temporary flooding." }, { "docid": "D2925030#0", "title": "http://animals.nationalgeographic.com/animals/birds/ivory-billed-woodpecker/\nIvory-Billed Woodpecker", "text": "Reference Ivory-Billed Woodpecker No Results Found Video from April 2005 seemed to bring evidence of the ivory-billed woodpecker, thought to be extinct since the mid-20th century.

Unconfirmed Sightings The world's third largest woodpecker was condemned to oblivion some 50 years ago, but in April 2005, a stunning video emerged from a vast Arkansas swamp forest. The tape appeared to show a live ivory-billed woodpecker—and captured the attention of the world. It was hailed as the birding equivalent of finding Elvis alive. In the wake of the discovery, some experts supported the evidence while others suggested that the tape showed a similar, smaller woodpecker—the pileated —which remains common in much of North America. Ivory-billed woodpeckers make a unique double-knock noise when pecking at trees, and this sound may be a crucial aid to identifying any surviving birds. A recent recording may have captured this distinctive sound, but it may also reflect noises of nonavian origin. Uncertain Status Until more hard evidence emerges from the Mississippi Delta's inaccessible, 860-square-mile Big Woods region, the ivory-bill's status must remain uncertain." }, { "docid": "D318032#0", "title": "http://www.georgiaencyclopedia.org/articles/geography-environment/birds\nBirds", "text": "\"Birds Original entry by J.

The state's diversity of habitats and physical features, from the northern mountains to the swamps and coastal islands, provides habitats for approximately 347 species of birds that live in Georgia at some point during their lifetimes. Between 90 and 110 species breed and nest in south Georgia. This number increases Ospreyin north Georgia to almost 130 nesting birds. The study of birds, also called ornithology, began as early as 1723 in Georgia. Georgia's birds are divided into four groups based on their seasonal activity in the state. Some are permanent residents of Georgia, such as the northern cardinal ( Cardinalis cardinalis ), while others, such as the indigo bunting ( Passerina cyanea ), are summer-breeding birds that migrate from Central and South America (neotropics) and the Caribbean in the spring. Summer-breeding birds nest in Georgia but return south to the neotropics in the fall. Others migrate from the north in late fall. The birds in this second migratory group are called winter residents, and they return north to nest in the spring." }, { "docid": "D2877127#0", "title": "http://extension.psu.edu/natural-resources/wildlife/wildlife-nuisance-and-damage/birds/wildlife-damage-control-2-woodpeckers\nWoodpeckers", "text": "\"Learn how to keep woodpeckers from becoming a problem or how to lessen the problem if one currently exists.

More than 300 species of woodpeckers are known throughout the world, and 22 species inhabit the United States. Seven species are common to Pennsylvania, and a few others visit the state in winter. Woodpeckers are unique among birds because they drill into trees, primarily to find food, to nest, and to communicate with other members of their species. This behavior is also used by the birds to establish territories and to attract mates. Special physical adaptations, such as short legs, two sharp-clawed, backward-pointed toes, and stiff tail feathers, allow these birds to cling easily to a structure while pecking. They have stout, sharp beaks and a long tongue that can be extended a considerable distance. The bird's bill loosens bark and the tongue dislodges insects from the wood.

One of the shocks to the system that you’ll find behind the swinging doors at the restaurants of the world, is: when it comes to meat cleavers, most chefs grab for the simpler, less flashy implements. On their rack, they’ll have sleek black Wüsthof handles alongside a few Henckels paring knives, but when it comes to the cleaver: hunk of metal stuck in wood. They’re meant for hacking, and that’s rough, ugly work done by rough, ugly tools. Since we know that not everyone has a professional kitchen at home, we’re going to give you a few options in every price range that can match aesthetics and function. We’ll also give you choices that will need to be kept in a drawer, but make swinging so fun you’ll be getting carcasses for chopping. Really, the only meat cleavers we omitted were those so terrible they turned meat cutting into a chore. The rest are among the 7 best meat cleavers.

Lo, nearly suffered the ill-fated sophomore slump. The actress-turned-singer was at the height of her career, coming off the box-office smash The Wedding Planner, opposite Matthew Mc Conaughey, and a hilarious turn as a Saturday Night Live host. At the same time, J. Lo ’s first single, “Love Don’t Cost a Thing,” topped the charts, peaking at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 1 on the Mainstream Top 40. While the album entered the Billboard 200 chart at No. 1 the same week that The Wedding Planner topped the box office, finding a follow-up single to “Love Don’t Cost a Thing” proved to be a challenge. When club-tailored \"\"Play\"\" failed to land with listeners, Lopez's then-label, Sony's Epic Records, turned to \"\"I'm Real,\"\" a shimmering dance-pop jam and one of the seven tracks Lopez co-wrote for the album. MORE: Jennifer Lopez Surprises Ex-Husband Marc Anthony at NYC Concert The vision: to flip the track into a hip-hop duet featuring zeitgeist rapper Ja Rule, which would influence future rap-pop collaborations, lay the foundation for Lopez's R&B-influenced musical career and shake up Billboard 's chart rules. “I feel really proud of the album,” Lopez told ET in January 2001, ahead of J.

It can be frustrating to try a new recipe and not understand how much of an ingredient to purchase at the store. Sometimes they give you a quantity of tomatoes in volume (2 cups), sometimes as a weight (8 ounces) and still others the tomato is given as a produce description (2 medium tomatoes). But what are they really talking about? So how much is in a tomato? In order to help make cooking easier we did some experiments to help tell you exactly how many tomatoes you need to buy. To answer How many tomatoes in a cup we went to the grocery store to check out the different common types of tomatoes in the produce section. After surveying the selection we discovered that 1 pound is equal to 25 to 30 cherry tomatoes, 8 plum tomatoes or 3 medium round tomatoes. The cherry tomato weighs about 1 ounce, the plum tomato about 3 ounces, and the regular garden tomato weighs about 6 ounces. We then started chopping and found it took 27 to 28 cherry tomatoes, about 3 plum tomatoes, or 1.25 medium round garden tomatoes to reach the 1 cup mark." } ]

Over the course of their 18-year marriage, Smith and Pinkett Smith have been plagued by divorce rumours but they continue to defy the critics. Smith, 47, tied the knot with the Gotham actress in 1997 after two years of dating and they share two children, Jaden, 17, and Willow, 15. There have been many reports of trouble within the marriage as well as cheating allegations, all of which were denied, but Smith says he and Pinkett are determined not to call it quits. Why advertise with us The Men In Black actor told Entertainment Tonight: \"\"We've been married 20 years and we've been asking ourselves [what's the secret to marriage] and really at the end of the day it's just not quitting. You can't expect it to be easy, it's like our marriage was the most difficult, gruelling, excruciating thing that we have ever taken on in our lives. And you know we're just not quitters. \"\" When asked what the key is to maintaining a successful and healthy marriage, Smith replied: \"\"If there is a secret I would say is that we never went into working in our relationship. We only ever worked on ourselves individually, and then presented ourselves to one another better than we were previously. \"\" Will Smith and Jada Pinkett share children, Jaden and Willow, while Smith has son Trey from a previous marriage Jamie Mc Carthy/Getty Images for Mercedes-Benz In August, a fresh spate of divorce rumours emerged but Smith, who usually maintains a wall of silence, shut down the critics via Facebook." } ]	[ { "docid": "D2230373#0", "title": "https://www.pinterest.com/pin/366973069607332343/\nExplore Tia Mowry, Black Celebrities, and more!", "text": "\"Explore Tia Mowry, Black Celebrities, and more!Tamera mowry Celebrity Tahj mowry Famous people Beautiful people Famous couples Celebrity kids Celebrity news Tia Mowry Black Celebrities Beautiful Celebrities Family Love Beautiful Family Beautiful People Family Affair Black Women Celebrity Kids Timothy Mowry And Darlene Flowers See more Jason Moma Mixed Couples Lenny Kravitz Interracial Couples Power Couples Celebrity Couples Jason Momoa Kids Jason Momoa Children Family Photos After eight years of playing Denise Huxtable on The Cosby Show, the actress wed Lenny Kravitz at the age of The couple welcomed daughter Zoë Isabella See moreby Jason La Veris Beautiful Bride Beautiful Person Beautiful People Beautiful Things Green Weddings Celebrity Weddings Celebrity Couples Hollywood Couples Hollywood Stars July 2013 - Tina Turner Marries Erwin Bach In Switzerland (Wedding Photos) singer Tina Turner is now a married woman after 25 years in See more Tamera Mowry's Baby Shower Was a Pink Extravaganza: Pictures, Details Pink Baby Showers Baby Shower Co Ed Celebrity Moms Celebrity Baby Showers Interracial Family Family Affair Beautiful Kids Beautiful People Family Goals Mowry twins & their families!See more Jayz Beyonce Tina Knowles Solange Knowles Wedding Beautiful Family Beautiful People Beautiful Babies Celebrity Weddings Celebrity Kids Famous Photos Beyonce, Jay Z, & Blue Ivy Make Funny Faces at Tina Knowles' Wedding! : Photo Beyonce, Jay Z, and their daughter Blue Ivy make funny faces while posing for photos at Tina Knowles wedding earlier this month.

In the season premiere, Fletcher goes to dinner with the other cast members, where she meets Andrea Kelly, the recent divorcee of R&B artist, R. Kelly. Kelly desperately seeks advice from the other women about how to get through the hurt of a break-up, and Fletcher encourages her to focus on her kids – something that she did in the wake of her own divorce. Smith and Fletcher, who divorced in 1995, had one son together, Willard Christopher Smith III, better known as Trey, who is now 19 years old. Looking back on it, Fletcher realizes she had been naÃ¯ve about marriage, forgetting that it takes hard work to keep a relationship strong. “ I went into that marriage with false expectations of what marriage should be.

Since Jada is predominately a female given name, it could also be a fanciful spelling of the gemstone name Jade, thought to protect against intestinal or stomach complaints (the Spanish origin of the name translates to ‘stone of the bowels’). The ancient stone jade is also known for its properties in attracting love and/or money. We also wonder if the original Hebrew word (yadha) gave birth to the lingo “yadda, yadda, yadda” roughly translating into ‘you know the rest’ – since the original meaning is one of knowledge. In any case, Jada has only come into use during the latter half of the 20th century. Popularity of the Name Jada The female name Jada makes her first appearance on the U. S. popularity charts in 1969 at position #895 (low usage). Jada has very little movement on the charts for about 20 years and then – BANG! – the name advances over 700 positions on the list of girls names in four short years (between 1992 and 1995).

Home to many species of birds and mammals, the savanna is also used by humans for cattle grazing and hunting. Human interference and the destruction of animal habitats have resulted in several of the native animals of this area becoming endangered. Grevy’s Zebra Less than 2,000 or so of this breed of zebra were left in the wild in 2011, making the Grevy’s zebra the most threatened of any type of zebra, according to the Wildlife Extra website. Where more than 15,000 once lived in countries such as Kenya and Ethiopia, the Grevy’s zebra has been much reduced in population thanks to the disintegration of its natural habitat and hunting by humans. Disease and competition with other animals has added to the Grevy’s zebras' woes. African Elephant The savanna elephant, one of two distinct breeds of African elephant, was once commonly spotted all over the African continent, but the numbers of this animal left in the wild have been severely reduced. Statistics suggest that in the 1980s alone the population of African elephants fell from 1,300,000 to 750,000, as noted by the Smithsonian National Zoological Park website. This reduction is largely a result of humans hunting the elephant for its ivory, and a subsequent ban on this form of hunting has helped matters a little. The loss of grassland across Africa to human farming has also decreased African elephant numbers, forcing the animals to live mainly in nature reserves by 2011." }, { "docid": "D1219097#0", "title": "https://www.worldwildlife.org/species/orangutan\nWWFAbout Us How to HelpSearchSearch wDonate AdoptOur Work Species Places", "text": "\"x Species Orangutan Orangutan© .com/Anup Shah/WWFOrangutan Facts Why They Matter Threats What WWF is Doing How You Can Help Adopt an Orangutan Facts Known for their distinctive red fur, orangutans are the largest arboreal mammal, spending most of their time in trees.

Both cats, depending to a degree on sub-species, have a similar brownish/yellow base fur color which is distinctively marked with dark rosette markings. However, the jaguar can be distinguished by the presence of small dots or irregular shapes within the larger rosette markings, a more stocky and muscular body and a shorter tail. In the wild, identification would not be an issue as the cats inhabit different continents – the jaguar is the only member of the Panthera family to be found in the Americas and it is by far the biggest cat on the continent. The jaguars range, which once spanned from the southern states of the USA, down to the tip of South America, now centers on the north and central parts of the South American continent. The jaguar is predominantly a forest dweller with the highest population densities centering on the lowland rain forests of the Amazon Basin – dry woodland and grassland also serve as suitable terrain, although the cat is rarely found in areas above 8000 feet. The overall body size and coloration of the cat often relates to its location. Jaguars found in dense forested areas of the Amazon Basin are often only half the size of those found in more open terrain and it has been suggested that this can be related to the more frequent occurrence of larger prey species found in open terrain . Coloration of dense forest dwelling jaguars is often darker than those found in grassland and scrub forest – here, as with the darker coloration of rain forest leopards, the darker coats give better camouflage in the low light condition on the forest floor and offers the dark coated cat greater success in hunting and a greater chance of survival." }, { "docid": "D1805443#0", "title": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pantanal\nPantanal", "text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search For other uses, see Pantanal (disambiguation).‹ The template below ( Infobox World Heritage Site) is being considered for merging.

The largest group of mammalian predators on the forest floor are the cats. Each forested region, except the Australasian realm has its own forest cat species.

For one thing, everything seemed to cost more last year. But more importantly, the threats that endangered species faced in 2012 were worse than ever. The costs of those threats add up. Let's get to those numbers. The U. S. federal and state governments spent just more than $1.7 billion to conserve endangered and threatened species under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) in fiscal year (FY) 2012 (from October 1, 2011, to September 30, 2012), according to an accounting recently published by the U.

By some estimates, this region (which occupies 40 percent of the area of the South American continent) is home to one-tenth of the world's animal species. On the following slides, you'll discover the most important animals of the Amazon river basin, ranging from monkeys to anteaters to poison dart frogs.02of 11The Piranha Getty Images There are a lot of myths about piranhas, such as the one that they can skeletonize a cow in less than five minutes; the fact is that these fish don't even particularly like to attack humans. Still, there's no denying that the piranha is built to kill, equipped as it is with sharp teeth and extremely powerful jaws, which can chomp down on its prey with a force of over 70 pounds per square inch. Given how scary the piranha is, you may or may not want to know about the megapiranha, a giant piranha ancestor that haunted the rivers of Miocene South America.03of 11The Capybara Wikimedia Commons The world's largest rodent, at up to 150 pounds, the capybara has a wide distribution across South America, but it especially likes the warm, humid environs of the Amazon river basin. This mammal subsists on the rain forest's copious vegetation, including fruit, tree bark and aquatic plants, and has been known to congregate in herds of up to 100 members (which should put your own pesky mouse problem into some perspective). The rain forest may be endangered, but the capybara isn't; this rodent continues to thrive, despite the fact that it's a popular menu item in some South American villages.04of 11The Jaguar Getty Images The third-largest big cats after lions and tigers, jaguars have had a difficult time of it over the last century, as deforestation and human encroachment has restricted their range across South America. However, it's much harder to hunt a jaguar in the dense Amazon river basin than out in the open pampas, so the impenetrable portions of the rain forest may be Panthera onca 's last, best hope. No one know for sure, but there are at least a few thousand jaguars preying on the megafauna of the Amazon rain forest; an apex predator itself, the jaguar has nothing to fear from its fellow animals (except, of course, for human beings).05of 11The Giant Otter Getty Images Also known as \"\"water jaguars\"\" and \"\"river wolves,\"\" giant otters are the largest members of the mustelid family, and thus closely related to weasels. The males of this species can attain lengths of up to six feet and weights of up to 75 pounds, and both sexes are known for their thick,, glossy, shiny coats—which are so coveted by human hunters that there are only an estimated 5,000 or so giant otters left across the entire Amazon river basin." }, { "docid": "D3303449#0", "title": "https://www.thetoptens.com/deadliest-big-cats/\nTop Ten Deadliest Big Cats", "text": "\"Top Ten Deadliest Big Catsbiddiebob99 Across America, Europe, Asia and Africa, all over the world the top ten deadliest of the amazing family.

While Velveeta® worked well in recipes calling for a melt-able cheese, it still remained fairly solid at room temperature. By adding various stabilizers and extenders, Kraft's food engineers were able to create a cheese sauce which would still be soft at room temperature. Cheez Whiz® was the final result of those experiments. Most people use Cheez Whiz® as a cheese-flavored dip for snack items such as crackers, potato chips and corn tortilla chips, but it can also be mixed with diced onions, cilantro and jalapeño peppers to form salsa con queso. Because it remains viable at room temperature, it can also be offered as a condiment for hamburgers, hot dogs and other sandwiches.

Vitamin C is essential to healthy tissue repair, and it acts as an antioxidant to help with immunity and to fight the effects of aging. One jalapeno also provides 6.4 micrograms of vitamin K and 530 international units of vitamin A. Jalapenos are also a minor source of vitamin E and most of the B complex of vitamins. Minerals A jalapeno contains a lot of potassium considering its petite size. In one pepper weighing 45 g, you get 153 mg of potassium – or about 7 percent of the 2,000 mg you need daily.

The earliest Gladiators used an advanced six-cylinder engine, while larger V-8 engines were optional throughout the life of the Gladiator and later J-10 and J-20 trucks.

Manley, speaking to journalists here today, said global Jeep sales are up 20 percent so far this year, which puts the brand on a pace to reach 1.2 million vehicle sales for the year. Reuters three weeks ago reported likely delays of some of the Fiat Chrysler Automobiles' product lineup, citing sources. FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne has said a redesign of the Grand Cherokee, one of the company's most profitable models, would be delayed for an unspecified period of time so engineers could take \"\"a complete re-look\"\" at the vehicle's basic underpinnings. That architecture will be shared with a larger and pricier derivative called Grand Wagoneer that’s intended to compete with luxury SUVs such as the Range Rover, he said. Originally, in its 2014 investor briefing, FCA said the redesigned Grand Cherokee would be introduced in fall 2017 and the new Grand Wagoneer in fall 2018. Suppliers have told Reuters that the Grand Cherokee introduction now may be delayed by up to a year, while the Grand Wagoneer's launch could slip even further.

Posted on Autos.com Editor in Car Buying on October 7, 2013There is some debate about what the first SUV was to hit the roads. According to Edmunds and many others, the official release of a true SUV was in 1946 with the Willys Jeep Station Wagon. It was designed by Brooks Stevens and was the first all-steel wagon of its kind. This particular model stayed in production until 1965, and it remains the oldest SUV in history. Here is a look at it. Early Years This Jeep wagon started off with a flathead 4 engine called the 463, and by 1948 it came standard with the L148 Lightning 6 engine. From 1946 to 1948, the vehicle was only available in 2WD. The 4WD became available by 1949.

As you already know it has been earlier announced that this SUV will come with an engine that is also packed under the hood of the Hellcat model. While the Trackhawk has been confirmed, we are still shy of official information about the power its unit will deliver. Most likely it will bring incredible 707 hp and 645 lb-ft of torque that are sent to all four wheels. This setup will allow it to be the most powerful SUV in the world.source: motortrend.com The engine is pretty much identical to the one in Hellcat, 6.2-liter supercharged V8 and the only change is that this one comes with larger oil capacity which is needed due to higher weight, all-wheel drive and a tow rating of 7,200 pounds. Gearbox has been beefed up to cope with extra stress but comes with the same gear ratios like in standard Hellcat vehicles.

The Jeep Patriot offers little to recommend it beyond a low starting price. A low price can be a good thing – unless everything else about the vehicle is low too. We can't recommend the Patriot based on its powertrain. Its base 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine has slow off-the-line power and adds to the Patriot's above-average road noise. The available 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine has more power, though it's still loud and labors to accelerate quickly.

Finding one that can fit your baggage, grocery shopping, golf clubs and sports gear—often all at the same time—can be challenging, since the larger the cargo capacity, the more expensive the vehicle usually is. The search for that ideal balance of interior space and affordability has become elusive for automakers, too. “ Cargo space is getting tough to track and even tougher to purchase, as automakers make cars lighter and more fuel efficient while packing in the perks,” according to Jason Notte of The Street.

While the Wrangler actually predates the modern SUV by a couple of decades, it inhabits many of the same qualities, even if its cargo space is a bit lacking. At 12.8 cubic feet of trunk room, this Jeep has 49% less trunk space than other compact crossovers (at 55 cubic feet with the seats folded, that percentage is cut back to 1.4%).

Dugongs have dull grey, torpedo-shaped bodies with paddle-like forelimbs, and a fluked tail like a dolphin. Mature males have tusks. Dugongs lack dorsal fins and hind limbs.

Many species in the ocean have evolved to eat plant matter, rather than meat — some species eat both. These different groups are called herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores, respectively. Herbivores in the ocean can be reptile, fish or mammal. Some of them provide food for carnivorous or omnivorous predators of the deep.

It was named “Green” because of the color of the fat located beneath its shell, not precisely because it looks green on the outside. The green sea turtle is a large species, its shell is the biggest part and covers most of its body. It is composed of five central scutes flanked by four pairs of scutes that have a coloration either brown, gray, black or olive green. Larger adults grow up to 1.5 meters in length and weigh 190 kg, but there have been exceptional cases in which they can exceed 300 kg. The males are slightly larger than the females and have a longer and thicker tail because their reproductive organ is at the base of it. One way to differentiate the green turtle from other species of the same family is by observing the design of its mouth that is completely flat and short. They stay underwater for up to five hours because their heart rate slows down to conserve oxygen. Green turtles swim at a speed of about 1.5 to 2.3 km/h.

In American English, the name is pronounced with a silent \"\"c\"\", as \"\"teen-o-four\"\" or \"\"ten-o-four\"\". The preliminary \"\"c\"\" is pronounced in most European languages (as a syllable \"\"ka\"\"). Ctenophores are characterized by eight rows of cilia, which are used for locomotion. The cilia in each row are arranged to form a stack of combs, also called comb plates, or ctenes; thus the name ctenophore comes from the Greek, meaning \"\"comb bearer\"\". [ The more complete derivation, provided by H. Foundalis and T. Christopoulos, is that \"\"ctena\"\" means comb in ancient Greek (in Modern Greek, too: \"\"ktena\"\"), and \"\"phora\"\" is a morphological ending that comes from the Greek verb \"\"pherein\"\", to bear (Modern Greek: \"\"phero\"\"). ] Ctenophores are fairly simple animals that live only in marine waters; they can be found in most marine habitats, from polar to tropical, inshore to offshore, and from near the surface to the very deep ocean. There are probably about 100-150 species of ctenophores throughout the world's ocean, although most of these are poorly known. I have compiled a list of all valid scientific names for the Phylum Ctenophora, meant to be useful for ctenophore biologists, but which has links to various images of ctenophores on the web that others may also find interesting.

[ 1]The process was first demonstrated by the fisheries scientist Daniel Pauly and others in an article published in the journal Science in 1998.

The trophic level of a fish is the position it occupies on the food chain. The article establishes the importance of the mean trophic level of fisheries as a tool for measuring the health of ocean ecosystems. In 2000, the Convention on Biological Diversity selected the mean trophic level of fisheries catch, renamed the \"\"Marine Trophic Index\"\" (MTI), as one of eight indicators of ecosystem health.

What a sea turtle eats depends upon the species. Some are omnivores, eating a variety of plants and animals, while the hawksbill and the leatherback are specialists, subsisting primarily of sponges (hawksbills) and jellyfish (leatherbacks). Hawksbills for example, are mainly found on and around coral reefs where their main prey sponges are found. Greens forage among seagrass beds and nearshore habitats, and leatherbacks, which are deep divers, are found in pelagic (open ocean) environments where they feed exclusively on jellyfish and other soft-bodied invertebrates that float in the water column. Mouths & Jaws Sea turtle mouths and jaws are also shaped differently depending on their particular diet. Greens sea turtles have a beak with finely serrated edges, like the teeth of a saw, which enable them to tear seagrasses and scrape algae off of hard surfaces. Loggerheads have strong, massive jaws which enable them to crush hard-shelled prey like conchs and whelks. Leatherbacks have sharp, pointed cusps on their jaws which enable them to pierce and hold onto jellyfish. They also have sharp, downward curving spines called papillae in their mouth and throat which help move prey to their stomach." }, { "docid": "D1691841#0", "title": "https://seaworld.org/en/animal-info/animal-infobooks/sea-turtles/diet-and-eating-habits\nSea Turtles", "text": "Sea Turtles Diet & Eating Habits Food Preferences And Resources Depending on the species, sea turtles may be carnivorous (meat eating), herbivorous (plant eating), or omnivorous (eating both meat and plants). The jaw structure of many species is adapted for their diet. Green sea turtles have finely serrated jaws adapted for a vegetarian diet of sea grasses and algae. As adults, these are the only herbivorous sea turtles. Some species change eating habits as they age. For example, green sea turtles are mainly carnivorous from hatching until juvenile size; they then progressively shift to an herbivorous diet. A hawksbill has a narrow head with jaws meeting at an acute angle, adapted for getting food from crevices in coral reefs. They eat sponges, tunicates, shrimps, and squids. Loggerheads' and ridleys' jaws are adapted for crushing and grinding.

The fauna of Australia consists of a huge variety of animals; some 83% of mammals, 89% of reptiles, 24% of fish and insects and 93% of amphibians that inhabit the continent are endemic to Australia. [ 2] This high level of endemism can be attributed to the continent's long geographic isolation, tectonic stability, and the effects of an unusual pattern of climate change on the soil and flora over geological time. A unique feature of Australia's fauna is the relative scarcity of native placental mammals. Consequently, the marsupials — a group of mammals that raise their young in a pouch, including the macropods, possums and dasyuromorphs — occupy many of the ecological niches placental animals occupy elsewhere in the world. Australia is home to two of the five known extant species of monotremes and has numerous venomous species, which include the platypus, spiders, scorpions, octopus, jellyfish, molluscs, stonefish, and stingrays. Uniquely, Australia has more venomous than non-venomous species of snakes. The settlement of Australia by Indigenous Australians between 48,000 and 70,000 years ago [3] (research in 2011 using DNA suggesting an arrival around 50,000 years ago), [4] and by Europeans from 1788, has significantly affected the fauna. Hunting, the introduction of non-native species, and land-management practices involving the modification or destruction of habitats have led to numerous extinctions.

Thomas Rolfe (and his two marriages) made it possible for following generations, both in North America and in England, to trace descent from Pocahontas (including Nancy Reagan and astronomer Percival Lowell). Pocahontas (born Matoaka, known as Amonute, and later known as Rebecca Rolfe, c. 1595 – March 1617) was captured by the English during hostilities in 1613, and held for ransom. During her captivity, she converted to Christianity and took the name Rebecca. When the opportunity arose for her to return to her people, she chose to remain with the English. In April 1614, she married tobacco planter John Rolfe. Thomas Rolfe was born in Virginia and named after Governor Sir Thomas Dale, who accompanied Thomas Rolfe and his parents on their trip to England aboard the Treasurer in 1616. He was a year old during this voyage, and (being half Native American) was not necessarily immune to the diseases and hardships of the voyage.

Therefore, much of the Boxer history that is developed here comes from his book. The history of the Boxer as a unique breed begins late in the last century in the area of Munich, Germany. The Germans did not begin to breed dogs seriously and scientifically until that time, although various types of dogs had existed in Germany -- as in England and the Continent -- from time immemorial. According to Denlinger, \"\"As far back as the time of the ancient Assyrians, more than 2000 B. C., a strain of dogs with powerful build, heavy head and great courage was bred and used in war. Centuries later the name of Molossian was given to dogs of this type, named from the city of Molossis in Epirus, in what is today Albania.\"\" These dogs spread across the continent and became the ancestors to the German Bullenbeisser. In England, selective breeding produced a taller, stronger dog than the original Molossis and this formed the foundation of the modern Mastiff. Later, the English crossed their Mastiff with fast running hounds to produce the Englische Dogge, or Great Dane, the German national dog. However, the Germans continued to use the Bullenbeisser as a hunting dog." }, { "docid": "D1497180#0", "title": "https://www.nwhm.org/education-resources/biography/biographies/pocahontas/\nPocahontas", "text": "Pocahontasca. 1596-1617Among the most famous women in early American history, Pocahontas is credited with having helped the struggling English settlers in Virginia survive in the early 1600s. The explorer John Smith — who claimed Pocahontas saved his life — hailed her as “the instrument to pursurve this colonie from death, famine, and utter confusion. ”Born around 1596, Pocahontas was the daughter of Wahunsenaca (also known as Powhatan), the powerful chief of the Powhatans, a Native American group that inhabited the Chesapeake Bay region. Little is known about her mother. Her given name was Amonute (privately, Matoaka), but she has been remembered by her nickname Pocahontas, meaning “playful one. ”Pocahontas first observed the English when they landed in Jamestown, Virginia in May of 1607. She secured her place in American history when Captain John Smith was captured by Powhatan’s brother Opechancanough that winter. In published accounts, Smith claimed that as he was about to be executed, Pocahontas raced in and lay her head next to his, where it was about to be smashed on some rocks. Historians have debated Smith’s claims and many believe it was simply a tribal ritual, possibly one of adoption since Powhatan thereafter referred to Smith as a member of the tribe." }, { "docid": "D329632#0", "title": "http://www.encyclopediavirginia.org/Dale_Sir_Thomas_d_1619\nSir Thomas Dale (d. 1619)", "text": "\"In This Entry Early Years In Virginia Later Years Time Line Further Reading Share It Early Years Dale may have been a member of the Dale family of Surrey County, England, or of an Anglo-Dutch family.

Although many settlers had a hand in keeping this colony going, two men in particular achieved fame due to their role; John Smith and John Rolfe. John Smith was an English soldier who was hired by the Virginia Company to help establish a trading post in North America. Although he had a reputation as a troublemaker and was nearly executed when he reached North America, he eventually became its leader in 1608 and instituted a “No Work, No Food” policy. The colony began to grow and expand under his strict leadership. During this time he also struck up a relationship with the daughter of a powerful chief, Powahatan. The young princess, who we know commonly as Pocohontas, reportedly saved Smith and the settlement twice, but whether this was romantic relationship or not is a question of much debate. Smith eventually returned to England after a gunpowder explosion in 1609. John Rolfe arrived with the third wave of settlers in 1610.

When John Smith met him face to face in 1607, the chief went by the name of Powhatan, after his hometown, even though he by then had been living at his new capital of Werowocomoco. Smith guessed him to be about sixty years old, which suggests an approximate birth date of 1550. Nothing specific is known of Powhatan's early life. Among the Algonquian-speaking Virginia Indians, succession to the status of chief, or weroance, was matrilineal, meaning that Wahunsonacock must have been the son of a sister of a Powhatan weroance, taking his place as chief on the death of his uncle. Despite his status, Wahunsonacock's childhood likely was no different from other boys; until he was about five, he went to the gardens, marshes, and forests with his mother, probably practicing archery, with her encouragement, on any creature that moved there. As an adolescent, having proved himself a proficient hunter, he endured the huskanaw ritual initiating him into manhood, after which he returned to his family and joined the ranks of the tribe's warriors and hunters. His status as an heir to the rank of chief probably made him a cockarouse, or member of his uncle's council. Paramount Chief Map of Powhatan Paramount Chiefdom By 1607 and the arrival of the Jamestown settlers, Powhatan ruled Tsenacomoco, an alliance of twenty-eight to thirty-two tribes and petty chiefdoms anchored by the Powhatan Indians and five others: the Pamunkey, the Arrohateck, the Appamattuck, the Youghtanund, and the Mattaponi. Powhatan inherited leadership of this group of six and, through some combination of force and diplomacy, dramatically expanded from there." }, { "docid": "D1555098#0", "title": "https://quizlet.com/3786219/apush-terms-chs-1-2-flash-cards/\nAPUSH Terms Chs. 1-2", "text": "\"66 terms apalmore APUSH Terms Chs. 1-2APUSH Terms (Semester 1)Learn Flashcards Write Spell Test Match Gravity Advertisement Upgrade to remove ads Sort Richard Hakluyt the Oxford clergyman who argued for colonies on the basis of new markets and alleviation of poverty and unemployment English Reformation The formation of the Anglican Church, because the Pope would not grant King Henry VIII a divorce Calvinist Puritans Calvinists that came back to England after the rule of Queen Mary-\"\"Bloody Mary\"\" -who harshly returned to the Catholic Church Separatists Christians who were determined to worship as they wanted in their own government-independent churches Elizabeth 1 A queen of England- \"\"The Virgin Queen\"\"- who brought England back out of Catholicism and incorporated some Calvinist ideas into Anglicism James 1 king of England that believed kings ruled by divine right- Leans waaay catholic- antagonizes English Protestants Sir Humphrey Gilbert The governor of an Irish province-was an English conquistador in suppression methods Plantations the practice of \"\"transplanting\"\" english society onto foreign soil Enclosure Movement The movement of \"\"Householders\"\" to convert farmland the the more profitable use of raising sheep.

His strict Uncle Millard has no patience for what he characterises as a sign of Leopold's disrespect for the Monarchy, chastising him, and telling him he must marry a rich American, as the Mountbatten family finances are depleted. In response to his uncle's accusations of his blemishing the family name, Leopold counters that the new nobility is to be found in those who pursue initiatives, hence his interest in the sciences and inventions.

When English colonists settled in Jamestown in 1607, Pocahontas befriended them. She played with some of the children of the colonists, and the parents grew fond of her as well; on a whole, the situation between the Powhatans and the colonists was tenuous. Tensions continued between the colonists and the Powhatan Indians. In 1608, the leader of the colony, Captain John Smith, was captured by Powhatan’s men. Smith claims that Pocahontas pleaded for them to spare Smith’s life and they did, and by doing so, she saved the colony of Jamestown. Despite this salvation of Smith, relations between other Englishmen and the Native Americans remained tense. In 1613, Pocahontas was taken hostage by an English ship captain, Samuel Argall. Argall wished to exchange Pocahontas for several Englishmen who were being held by the Powhatans and for numerous supplies, including tools, that the Native Americans had stolen from them.

At the same time, Richard and Stephen Dummer, Richard Saltonstall, and Henry Sewall and others in Wiltshire had organized a company to establish a stock-raising plantation in the Massachusetts Bay Colony because of the high prices in England for horses, cattle, sheep, and hogs.

The marriage ensured peace between the Jamestown settlers and the Powhatan Indians for several years. In May 1607, about 100 English colonists settled along the James River in Virginia to found Jamestown, the first permanent English settlement in America. The settlers fared badly because of famine, disease, and Indian attacks, but were aided by 27-year-old English adventurer John Smith, who directed survival efforts and mapped the area. While exploring the Chickahominy River in December 1607, Smith and two colonists were captured by Powhatan warriors. At the time, the Powhatan confederacy consisted of around 30 Tidewater-area tribes led by Chief Wahunsonacock, known as Chief Powhatan to the English. Smith’s companions were killed, but he was spared and released, (according to a 1624 account by Smith) because of the dramatic intercession of Pocahontas, Chief Powhatan’s 13-year-old daughter. Her real name was Matoaka, and Pocahontas was a pet name that has been translated variously as “playful one” and “my favorite daughter. ”In 1608, Smith became president of the Jamestown colony, but the settlement continued to suffer.

The Virginia Company, founded by investors, had financed and sponsored the English colony founded at Jamestown in May 1607. The Company expected the colonist to start industrial enterprises in Virginia that would return profits to the Company. The colonists in Virginia tried a number of different enterprises: silkmaking, glassmaking, lumber, sassafras, pitch and tar, and soap ashes, with no financial success. It was John Rolfe's experiments with tobacco that developed the first profitable export. The Spaniards found the natives in the West Indies using the tobacco plant. They took seed to Europe where its use soon spread to other countries around the Mediterranean Sea. Sir Walter Raleigh is often credited with the introduction of tobacco to England. While in reality he may not have been responsible for its introduction, he did play an important role in the spread of tobacco use among the English.

It consists of: In-text citations, which are inserted near the source and encloses both the author’s surname and the year of publication in parentheses A ‘ References ’ section at the end of the paper that lists all of the sources cited in your work, and includes full publication information for each In short, an ASA in-text citation is used to draw the reader’s attention to where you have quoted or paraphrased a source within the text. The citation includes the name of the author, publication date of the source and, where needed, the page numbers, for example: (Woolf, 2007). Subsequent references to the same source are still listed parenthetically by author and year. Each in-text citation must link to a reference list entry, and its purpose is to direct your reader there.

The Modern Language Association's Handbook is in its 8th edition and standardizes the way scholars document their sources and format their papers. When everyone documents their sources and papers in the same way, it is simple to recognize and understand the types of sources that were used for a project.

The S1 block, which detainees describe as an interrogation block, is a few minutes drive from the jail Hundreds of “disappeared” Egyptians are being tortured and held outside of judicial oversight in a secret military prison, according to Guardian interviews with former inmates, lawyers, rights activists and families of missing persons. Since at least the end of July 2013, detainees have been taken there blindfolded and forcibly disappeared. Up to 400 are still being tortured and held outside of judicial oversight in the clearest example of a wide-scale crackdown that Amnesty and Human Rights Watch have jointly called “ repression on a scale unprecedented in Egypt’s modern history ”. Prisoners at Azouli are routinely electrocuted, beaten and hanged naked by their tied wrists for hours until they either give up specific information, memorise confessions or until – in the case of a small group of released former inmates – are deemed of no further use to their interrogators. They are among at least 16,000 political prisoners arrested since last summer’s regime change. But what sets Azouli’s prisoners apart is the way they are held outside of Egypt’s legal system, in circumstances that allow their jailers to act without fear of even hypothetical consequences. “Officially, you aren’t there,” said Ayman, a middle-aged man who was brought to Azouli towards the end of 2013, and one of only a few to later be released. “It isn’t like normal prisons.

Unlike other programmes that often focus on poverty and disease when covering the dark continent , this is a show that looks at the success stories of Africans.

If you’re new to the story, here’s what’s going on. Protests started on Tuesday, January 25, when — inspired by the successful revolution in Tunisia — thousands of people began taking to the streets to protest poverty, rampant unemployment, government corruption and autocratic governance of President Hosni Mubarak, who has ruled the country for thirty years. These were the first protests on such a large scale to be seen in Egypt since the 1970s. The government responded by blocking Twitter, which was being used by organizers to coordinate protests. Blocking Twitter not only enraged Egyptian citizens; it also brought increased national attention to the uprising. Over the course of the next two days, Egypt proceeded to block Facebook while the much-hated riot police took to the streets, arresting and injuring hundreds with batons, tear gas water cannons. Protests occurred not only in Cairo, the capital, but also in Alexandria and Suez, two other major cities. On Thursday as the protests continued to rage throughout the country, Nobel Laureate and former head of the International Atomic Energy Agency Mohamed El Baradei (ehl-BEHR’-uh-day), returned to Egypt from Vienna, declaring that he was ready to lead the protests.

Disentangling myth from reality about the political Islamic movement—whose goal is to establish governments based on shari’ah (Qur’anic law)—is a challenge fraught with difficulties. For journalists, this challenge involves a willingness to recognize the complexity and diversity within this movement, which encompasses a broad spectrum of mainstream and militant forces, as they try to place their coverage of news and events (often involving violence and threats of violence) within a broader, more meaningful and accurate context. Mainstream Islamists—that is, Muslim Brothers and other independent activists—represent an overwhelming majority of religiously oriented groups (in the upper 90th percentile), whereas militants or jihadists are a tiny but critical minority.

Following the war, Kuwait fell under British rule and later became an independent monarchy. Iraqi officials did not accept the legitimacy of Kuwaiti independence. Following the Iran-Iraq War of the 1980s, Iraq was extremely indebted to several Arab countries, including a $14 billion debt to Kuwait (Hiro, 1992). Iraq hoped to repay its debts by raising the price of oil through OPEC oil production cuts, but instead, Kuwait increased production, lowering prices, in an attempt to leverage a better resolution of their border dispute.

Nitrates and nitrites are used to “cure” meat. Their role was likely discovered by accident and can be traced to the use of salt that happened to be contaminated with potassium or sodium nitrate, commonly known as “saltpeter.” Meat treated with these chemicals retains a red colour, acquires a characteristic taste and most importantly, is less amenable to contamination with disease-causing bacteria, particularly the very dangerous Botulinum clostridium. By the 1980s it became apparent that certain bacteria were capable of converting nitrates into nitrites and that nitrites were the actual active species. Consequently nitrites are now added directly to processed meat instead of relying on bacteria to produce them from nitrates. This allows for better control of nitrite concentrations, a critical aspect of processed meat production. Why critical? Because it is well known that nitrites can react with amines, naturally occurring compounds present in meat, as well as in human tissues, to form nitrosamines.

However, not all concentrated juices are created equal. Just like regular juices, some juice concentrates are healthier for you than others. What Are Juice Concentrates? Juice concentrates are generally frozen, concentrated forms of juices and juice drink blends. To properly prepare concentrated juice, just add the amount of water listed on the concentrate instruction label. Juice concentrates can be kept frozen until you're ready to use them, which increases the amount of time the juice will stay fresh after purchasing it. Juice concentrates are easy to prepare, but may be slightly less convenient than buying regular ready-to-drink juice. Which Ones Are Healthy? To avoid added sugars, which are often present in mixed juice drink blends, look for juice concentrates that say they are 100-percent juice on the label." }, { "docid": "D917929#0", "title": "http://www.thehealthyhomeeconomist.com/avoid-pectin-home-canning/\nReasons to Avoid Pectin in Home Canning (and What to Use Instead)", "text": "Reasons to Avoid Pectin in Home Canning (and What to Use Instead)by Sarah Updated: January 25, 2018 Affiliate links Healthy Living Pectin is an almost universal additive to commercially made jams and jellies. Even when homemade, this ingredient is commonly used to ensure a consistently gelled end result. What many homemade jam and jelly enthusiasts don’t realize, however, is that pectin is not a desirable ingredient and should be avoided when an optimally healthy condiment is the goal. The reasons are threefold. GMO Commercial Pectin First, pectin can be made from corn and that usually means genetically modified corn unless the product is certified organic. Even “all natural” fruit versions are typically GMO based as they contain dextrose and citric acid, both corn derived products. For example, take a look at the ingredients of Sure-Jell, a popular brand used by home canners: Sure-Jell Ingredients: Dextrose, citric acid, fruit pectin. While the fruit pectin itself isn’t a problem, the GMO dextrose and citric acid most definitely is. Fruit Pectin Means High Sugar Another reason to avoid commercial pectin is the amount of sugar that is required for it to work properly. In order for commercial pectin to set, 55-85% of the jam or jelly must be sugar." }, { "docid": "D557361#0", "title": "http://www.prevention.com/food/20-super-healthy-smoothie-recipes\n20 Super-Healthy Smoothie Recipes", "text": "\"Food smoothies20 Super-Healthy Smoothie Recipes Healthy smoothie recipes full of the nutrients and protein you need The Editors of Prevention December 30, 2013Subscribe1/21Best healthy smoothie blends These delicious healthy smoothie recipes make it easy to eat healthy with fruit, milk, protein, immune-boosting yogurt, and other nutritious ingredients—and they're great for those on a smoothie diet, too.

Let me explain more about calorie density. What are High Density or Calorie Dense Foods High density foods are foods which (measure by volume) contain a high number of calories per serving. Calorie dense foods tend to be high in fat and/or sugar due to the fact that all proteins and all carbohydrates contain four calories per gram whilst all fats contain nine calories per gram.

The benefits of physical activity occur in generally healthy people, in people at risk of developing chronic diseases, and in people with current chronic conditions or disabilities. This chapter gives an overview of research findings on physical activity and health. The box below provides a summary of these benefits. Physical activity affects many health conditions, and the specific amounts and types of activity that benefit each condition vary. In developing public health guidelines, the challenge is to integrate scientific information across all health benefits and identify a critical range of physical activity that appears to have an effect across the health benefits. One consistent finding from research studies is that once the health benefits from physical activity begin to accrue, additional amounts of activity provide additional benefits. Although some health benefits seem to begin with as little as 60 minutes (1 hour) a week, research shows that a total amount of 150 minutes (2 hours and 30 minutes) a week of moderate-intensity aerobic activity, such as brisk walking, consistently reduces the risk of many chronic diseases and other adverse health outcomes. Examining the Relationship Between Physical Activity and Health In many studies covering a wide range of issues, researchers have focused on exercise, as well as on the more broadly defined concept of physical activity.

According to the American College of Sports Medicine, these activities include fast-paced walking, running, cycling, swimming, cross-country skiing, jumping rope and in-line skating. By elevating your heart rate with exercise, you strengthen your heart, improve blood flow, burn fat and improve your body's ability to deliver oxygen and energy to working muscles.

Introduction As we enter the 21st century, one of the greatest accomplishments to be celebrated is the continuous pursuit of fitness since the beginning of man’s existence. Throughout prehistoric time, man's quest for fitness has been driven by a desire to survive through hunting and gathering. Today, though no longer driven by subsistence requirements, fitness remains paramount to health and well-being. This article will highlight historical events and influential individuals who have shaped the history of fitness beginning with primitive man up to the foundation of the modern fitness movement. Primitive man and fitness (pre-10,000 B. C)Primitive nomadic lifestyles required the continual task of hunting and gathering food for survival (1). Tribes commonly went on one- or two- day hunting journeys for food and water. Regular physical activity apart from that necessary for hunting and gathering was also a principal component of life. Following successful hunting and gathering excursions, celebration events included trips of six to 20 miles to neighboring tribes to visit friends and family, where dancing and cultural games could often last several hours. This Paleolithic pattern of subsistence pursuit and celebration, demanding a high level of fitness and consisting of various forms of physical activity, defined human life (2)." }, { "docid": "D459705#0", "title": "http://healthyliving.azcentral.com/different-ways-jump-rope-5682.html\nDifferent Ways to Jump Rope", "text": "Different Ways to Jump Ropeby Rob Harris Related Articles How to Jump Rope to Improve Running Lateral Shuffle Exercise Ladder Jump Exercises Jumping Up & Down as Aerobic Exercise Jump Rope Exercises for Kids What Happens to Breathing Rates During Jumping Jacks?

Jump just high enough to clear the rope, usually about 1/2 inch, with your feet together. This move takes a little bit of practice to find the proper wrist motion and to coordinate the timing of your jumps." }, { "docid": "D1054472#0", "title": "http://healthyliving.azcentral.com/benefits-jumping-jacks-6383.html\nBenefits of Jumping Jacks", "text": "\"Benefits of Jumping Jacksby Libby Swope Wiersema Related Articles Jenny Mc Carthy Diet & Exercise Medicare Spouse Benefits How Long to Jump Rope Daily?

The benefits of physical activity occur in generally healthy people, in people at risk of developing chronic diseases, and in people with current chronic conditions or disabilities. This chapter gives an overview of research findings on physical activity and health. The box below provides a summary of these benefits. Physical activity affects many health conditions, and the specific amounts and types of activity that benefit each condition vary. In developing public health guidelines, the challenge is to integrate scientific information across all health benefits and identify a critical range of physical activity that appears to have an effect across the health benefits. One consistent finding from research studies is that once the health benefits from physical activity begin to accrue, additional amounts of activity provide additional benefits. Although some health benefits seem to begin with as little as 60 minutes (1 hour) a week, research shows that a total amount of 150 minutes (2 hours and 30 minutes) a week of moderate-intensity aerobic activity, such as brisk walking, consistently reduces the risk of many chronic diseases and other adverse health outcomes. Examining the Relationship Between Physical Activity and Health In many studies covering a wide range of issues, researchers have focused on exercise, as well as on the more broadly defined concept of physical activity. Exercise is a form of physical activity that is planned, structured, repetitive, and performed with the goal of improving health or fitness." }, { "docid": "D3514740#0", "title": "http://www.healthyweightforum.org/eng/calculators/activity-burned/\nCalories Burned Calculator", "text": "Calories Burned Calculator In order to lose weight we need to either;consume less foodburn excess calories though activity Use the calorie calculator to find out how many calories you burn for over 500 activities and exercises.

In addition, upper body aerobics can help keep your fitness routine on track if your lower body workout is limited due to injury or other factors. For an effective upper body cardio workout, try one of these approaches:1. Rowing Machine The rowing machine is a classic for a reason–it’s highly effective. When used properly and regularly, a rowing machine will develop biceps and triceps, pectorals, and the upper back. Vigorous work with a rowing machine will burn fat and produce a highly effective cardio workout for the upper body. Be sure to use proper form to prevent injury, and warm up before beginning your workout.2.

Buzzwords include tabata, max and turbulence training. From group fitness classes to treadmills, boot camp classes to outdoor workouts, this type of interval training is everywhere. An advanced, yet highly effective form of cardiovascular training, HIIT involves brief bursts of very high-intensity work followed by a recovery period. Studies have shown that these intense bursts of exercise boost your metabolism and may burn more total calories than steady state cardio. The concern with interval training, however, is the stress that the body endures to perform the exercises. Near maximum effort is required to run faster, jump higher, get lower and go further. Fortunately, there is a place where running faster and jumping higher can be performed with minimal joint stress, while still facilitating the benefits of interval training.

Kangaroos are in the Macropodidae family, which also includes tree-kangaroos, wallabies, wallaroos, quokkas and pademelons. When people think of kangaroos, the four species that typically come to mind are in the genus Macropus: the antilopine kangaroo, the red kangaroo, the western gray kangaroo and the eastern gray kangaroo.

Kangaroos are native to the continent of Australia, while a number of tree kangaroos are found in New Guinea. The word kangaroo is said to derive from the Guugu Yimidhirr (an Australian Aboriginal language) word gangurru, referring to the Grey Kangaroo. The name was first recorded as kangaru by Joseph Banks on James Cook's first voyage of exploration, when they were beached at the mouth of the Endeavour River in the harbour of modern Cooktown for almost 7 weeks repairing their ship which had been damaged on the Great Barrier Reef.

The island is 145 kilometers east to west, and has an abundance of wildlife, natural scenery, wineries and beaches. Kangaroo Island Understand [ edit]History [ edit]Kangaroo Island was separated from the mainland around 10,000 years ago. It was first explored by Matthew Flinders in 1802 whilst en route from UK to Sydney. He named the island in honour of the feast of Kangaroo he and his crew enjoyed on the island. More extensive mapping (especially of the south coast) was done by the French explorer Nicolas Baudin which is why a number of geographical features have French names. While there is evidence of Aboriginal people living on the island as long as 16,000 years ago, the island has not been inhabited by Aboriginal people for at least 2,000 years. From 1803 the island was visited by sealers and whalers, exploiting the natural resources of the island. In addition, a number of \"\"independent\"\" settlers arrived - thought to be mainly escaped convicts and those looking for a lifestyle unencumbered by regulation - took up residence between 1803 and the start of official settlement in 1836. In 1836 Kingscote became the first settlement in South Australia and significant parts of the island were opened up for farming." }, { "docid": "D1884170#0", "title": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kangaroo_Island_Emu\nKangaroo Island emu", "text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Kangaroo Island Emu)navigation search This article is about the subspecies of emu.

Male red kangaroos have a maroon-colored coat; female red kangaroos are bluish-gray, which has earned them the nickname \"\"blue flyers.\"\" All red kangaroos have a white stripe on each side of their faces. The western gray and eastern gray kangaroo both have silver hair, but the latter's coat is longer and lighter in color. All kangaroos have strong hind legs and conspicuously large feet.

Firstly, Kangaroos are not just found in Austrlaia, they are also found in New Guinea, north of Australia. While te species in new Guniea are actually tree kangaroos, they are still related. But to answer the question in more detail. Australia and Antarctica broke away from Africa during the time of the dinosaurs. this meant the animals on each continent started to differ more greatly as time went on. The mammals on the Australian continent (including new Guinea, which was joined to Australia) developed into marsupials while the mammals on other continents developed into placental mammals. In fact, every placental mammal living in modern day Australia is not an ancestral native to the continent, they have moved there in the past 40,000 years as a result of human interference. The reason for this is that Australia and New Guinea were separated from the rest of the world by some very large ocean distances.

Some, such as the Kangaroo, are extremely well known, indeed even synonymous with Australia. Others, such as the small, carnivorous Dunnarts and Kultarrs, are virtually unknown. Modern Australia holds the unfortunate world record for mammal extinctions, with many small marsupials having disappeared since the arrival of White Man and his feral pests such as cats and foxes. Nowadays, remnant colonies of other, endangered marsupials, such as the Rufous Hare Wallaby and the Greater Billby, thrive either only on isolated islands where there are no feral predators, or in specially constructed, feral proof breeding enclosures. These ‘island’ sanctuaries give their species some hope of survival. Marsupials are a sub-class of mammals, and have in common the pouch in which their young develop and shelter until they become independent. Most marsupials have forward-facing pouches, such as the Kangaroo, although nature has demonstrated her ingenuity by evolving backward-facing pouches in burrowing marsupials such as the Wombat and the Greater Bilby, such that their pouches do not fill with soil or sand as they dig. We have been fortunate to see quite a few marsupials as we have travelled. Obviously, the most common sighting is of the various Kangaroo species inhabiting the country, but we have also seen some of the Wallaby species, along with Koalas, Possums and a Bandicoot." }, { "docid": "D184478#0", "title": "https://www.savethekangaroo.com/factsheet\nKangaroo fact sheet 2017", "text": "\"Viva! kangaroo factsheet last updated June 2017The Australian Government authorises the slaughter of millions of kangaroos every single year.

You’ve seen her emote in smashing period costumes. Now be ready to hear actress Keira Knightley sing. Sing and emote possibly more than ever. In this exclusive clip from her new comedy-drama, Begin Again, she sings a freshly written breakup song into the voicemail of her now former lover, played by Adam Levine (with a beard). That’s British actor and Tony winner James Corden on keyboard and plastic kazoo. Knightley, 29, who’s married to a rock musician, James Righton of the Klaxons, sings with the anger and frailty of a born indie-label princess. It’s not the sound anyone anticipated when she was reportedly being considered for a My Fair Lady remake a few years ago. The story: Gretta (Knightley) moves to New York City with her boyfriend and songwriting partner Dave (Levine), but soon becomes a mere accessory and then an emotional inconvenience when he becomes a hot, up-and-coming star. She crashes with an old friend (Corden) and starts making her own music with the encouragement of a burned-out music executive ( Mark Ruffalo )." }, { "docid": "D3410393#0", "title": "http://www.rhymer.com/RhymingDictionary/you.html\nyou 228 End Rhymes", "text": "you 228 End Rhymes One-syllable rhymesblew blue boo brew chewclue coo coup crew cuedew do drew due ewefew flew flu flue gluegnu goo grew hew huehugh jew knew lieu mewmoo new pew pooh queuerue screw shoe shoo shrewsioux skew slew slough sluespew sprue stew strew suethrew through to too truetwo view whew who wooyew you zoo Two-syllable rhymesaccrue adieu ado ainu andrewanew argue askew bamboo bantubayou beaucoup bedew bellevue bestrewbijou breakthrough canoe cashew construecorkscrew cuckoo curfew debut ensueeschew fondue gumshoe guru haikuhairdo hebrew hereto hindu hoodoohorseshoe how-to igloo imbue intoiq issue jackscrew kazoo kudzukung-fu lean-to lulu make-do manchumantoux menu mildew milieu miscuemisdo muumuu nehru nephew ontooutdo outgrew peru preview purlieupursue purview ragout redo renewrescue review revue roughhew see-throughshampoo sinew skiddoo snafu snowshoestatue subdue taboo tatoo tattootherethrough thereto thumbscrew tissue tofututu undo undue unglue unscrewunto untrue value vendue venuevirtu virtue vishnu voodoo wahoowherethrough whereto withdrew yahoo zebuzulu Three-syllable rhymesavenue ballyhoo barbecue btu buckaroobugaboo byu caribou cockatoo continuecpu curlicue devalue hereunto hithertohoneydew impromptu interview iou jujitsukangaroo kinkajou manitou marabou misconstrueoverdo overdrew overdue overflew overgrewovershoe overthrew overview pdq peekabooreissue rendezvous residue retinue revaluerevenue switcheroo teleview thereunto timbuktuwaterloo whereunto Four-or-more syllable rhymesaclu discontinue honolulu hullabaloo overvalueundervalue vfw Rhyme How to Get Definitions for Rhyming Words Download Google Chrome, add the Google Dictionary Extension, restart Chrome, and then double click on rhyming words to see their definition, hear audio pronunciations and watch your vocabulary improve.

The song takes its title from the Hawaiian phrase Mele Kalikimaka, meaning \"\"Merry Christmas\"\". [ 1] One of the earliest recordings of this song was by Bing Crosby and the Andrews Sisters in 1950 on Decca 27228 (78 rpm) / 9-27228 (45 rpm) and it has been covered by many artists. The song is present in the films L. A. Confidential, Catch Me If You Can and National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. The Beach Boys recorded a song of the same name for their album Ultimate Christmas, but it contains lyrics and music completely different from the song written by Robert Alex Anderson. Contents [ hide ]1 Origin of the phrase2 Notable versions3 References4 External links Origin of the phrase [ edit]The expression Mele Kalikimaka, despite its foreign sound, is actually borrowed directly from English. But since the Hawaiian language has a different phonological system from English it is not possible to render a pronunciation that is especially close to Merry Christmas. Standard Hawaiian does not have the /r/ or /s/ of English and its phonotactic constraints do not permit consonants at the end of syllables or consonant clusters. Thus the closest approximation to Merry Christmas is Mele Kalikimaka.

How does sound move or propagate? The vibration is started by some mechanical movement, such as someone plucking a guitar string or knocking on a door. This causes a vibration on the molecules next to the mechanical event (i.e. where your hand hit the door when knocking). When these molecules vibrate, they in turn cause the molecules around them to vibrate. The vibration will spread from molecule to molecule causing the sound to travel. Sound must travel through matter because it needs the vibration of molecules to propagate. Because outer space is a vacuum with no matter, it's very quiet. The matter that transports the sound is called the medium. Speed of Sound The speed of sound is how fast the wave or vibrations pass through the medium or matter." } ]

Flag Is KB larger than MB? Answer by Deep Yellow Confidence votes 493No, a kilobyte is 1024 bytes, a MB is 1024*1024 bytes = 1048576 bytes. MB (Mega Byte) is much bigger than KB (kilobyte). One MB = 1024KB. You may wonder why multiples of 1024 are used rather than 1000. After all, the prefix kilo- means 1000. The answer is that computer numbers tend to be in powers of 2, since internally they use base 2 numbering rather than base 10. 1024 = 210.2 people found this useful Was this answer useful?

It has happened to most of us. We buy a new hard drive (or maybe a flash drive) with mind boggling storage capacity only to find that it has less space than what was mentioned on the box. Angered, we start cursing the manufacturer and our dealer for false marketing thinking that they should be sued for doing this. Hey, but have you ever wondered how they continue to do this again and again without getting into legal trouble? The answer is that they are not marketing it falsely at all. Surprised? I'll explain. A manufacturer considers 1 Megabyte to be 1000 Kilobytes, 1 Gigabyte to be 1000 Megabytes, 1 Terabyte to be 1000 Gigabytes and so on.

A byte is data equal to either seven or eight bits depending if it needs error correction ( parity ). You can think of a byte as one letter, for example, the letter 'h' is one byte or eight bits and the word 'hope' as four bytes or 32 bits (4*8). When looking at the size of a file, a byte is the smallest measurement size listed in operating systems. However, because most files are bigger than 1,024 bytes (one kilobyte ), most users will see small files listed in kilobytes. Tip: A byte is spelled as \"\"byte\"\" and never as \"\"bite. \"\" Byte size standard confusions Although eight bits in a byte is typically the size of a byte, there is not an official byte standard size because of how different computers treat a \"\"word size. \"\" What comes before a byte?

Jun, 2015 by \| 0 Comments Kennedy Ulcers, Pressure Sores and Bed Sores: What is the Difference? A Kennedy Ulcer is a form of a pressure sore which develops if a patient is left in one position for too long of a time period. It may also be referred to as 3:30 Syndrome. The skin loses blood flow to the affected area and the skin tissue dies. This leaves a hole in the skin, known as a pressure sore. This type of wound may also be referred to as a decubitus ulcer or a bedsore. Usually, these kinds of wounds are graded or staged based on their severity. A Stage I pressure ulcer is a reddened area, while a Stage IV pressure ulcer is a deep cavernous hole in the skin.

The most common sites are the skin overlying the sacrum, coccyx, heels or the hips, but other sites such as the elbows, knees, ankles, back of shoulders, or the back of the cranium can be affected. Pressure ulcers occur due to pressure applied to soft tissue resulting in completely or partially obstructed blood flow to the soft tissue. Shear is also a cause, as it can pull on blood vessels that feed the skin. Pressure ulcers most commonly develop in individuals who are not moving about, such as those being bedridden or confined to a wheelchair. It is widely believed that other factors can influence the tolerance of skin for pressure and shear, thereby increasing the risk of pressure ulcer development. These factors are protein-calorie malnutrition, microclimate (skin wetness caused by sweating or incontinence ), diseases that reduce blood flow to the skin, such as arteriosclerosis, or diseases that reduce the sensation in the skin, such as paralysis or neuropathy. The healing of pressure ulcers may be slowed by the age of the person, medical conditions (such as arteriosclerosis, diabetes or infection ), smoking or medications such as anti-inflammatory drugs. Although often prevented and treatable if detected early, pressure ulcers can be very difficult to prevent in critically ill people, frail elders, and individuals with impaired mobility such as wheelchair users (especially where spinal injury is involved)." }, { "docid": "D888452#0", "title": "http://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/diabetic+ulcer\nulcer", "text": "\"Correct all you're your grammar errors instantly.

An acute ulcer is sometimes defined as that followng the normal phases of healing; it is expected to show signs of healing in less than 4 weeks and includes traumatic and postoperative wounds. A chronic ulcer persists for longer than 4 weeks and often has complex and poorly understood origins. Who gets leg ulceration? Chronic leg ulceration affects about 1% of the middle-aged and elderly population. It most commonly occurs after a minor injury in association with: Chronic venous insufficiency (45-80%)Chronic arterial insufficiency (5-20%)Diabetes (15-25%)Hypertension Chronic leg ulcers may also be due to skin cancer, which may be diagnosed by a skin biopsy of the edge of a suspicious lesion." }, { "docid": "D3125338#0", "title": "https://www.evidence.nhs.uk/search?q=cost%20of%20treating%20pressure%20ulcers\n.", "text": "Download Share Results 1 - 10 of 609 sorted by relevance / date Click export CSV or RIS to download the entire page or use the checkboxes to select a subset of records to download Export CSVExport RISPressure ulcers: prevention and management : guidance (CG179)Source: National Institute for Health and Care Excellence - NICE - 23 April 2014Evidence-based recommendations on the prevention and management of pressure ulcers Read Summary - More: Guidance Pressure ulcers: productivity calculator Source: Department of Health - Source: GOV UK - 10 June 2010Tool to help NHS organisations and commissioners understand the productivity and cost elements associated with treating pressure ulcers.

K. A. decubitus ulcer and bed sores) are a common problem in all health care settings. Anywhere's from 1.3 million to 3 million adults suffer from this problem. Incidence of this problem varies from populations being surveyed: incidence rates for hospitals vary from 0.4% to 38%, while long term care settings vary from 2.2% to 23.9%, and home care reports indicate an incidence rate of 0% to 1.7%. A study by Thomas et al suggests that pressure rates in elderly are associated with increased mortality rates. Federal standards of care in nursing homes and hospitals list pressure sores as one of the quality of care indicators. Etiology Pressure sores develop when persisting pressure on a bony site obstructs healthy capillary flow, leading to tissue necrosis. It is generally accepted that healthy capillary pressure ranges from 20 to 40 mg Hg, with 32 mm Hg considered the average. Pressure ulcers can develop within 2 to 6 hours. The pressure ulcer can range from a very mild pink coloration of the skin, which disappears in a few hours after pressure is relieved on the area, to a very deep wound extending to and sometimes through internal organs and into bone. All pressure sores have a course of injury similar to a burn wound." }, { "docid": "D2949724#0", "title": "http://www.ahrq.gov/professionals/systems/hospital/pressureulcertoolkit/putool1.html\nPreventing Pressure Ulcers in Hospitals", "text": "\"Preventing Pressure Ulcers in Hospitals1.

It is proposed that for MASD to occur, another complicating factor is required in addition to mere moisture exposure. Possibilities include mechanical factors (friction), chemical factors (irritants contained in the moisture source), or microbial factors (microorganisms). The moisture barrier of the skin plays a critical role in maintaining homeostasis within the body, mainly by concurrently slowing the movement of water out of the body ( transepidermal water loss, or TEWL) and regulating the absorption of water and solutes from outside the body. When exposed to excessive amounts of moisture, the skin will soften, swell, and become wrinkled, all of which make the skin more susceptible to damage from one of the complicating factors mentioned above. The four specific types of moisture-associated skin damage that will be discussed here are periwound moisture-associated dermatitis, peristomal moisture-associated dermatitis, incontinence-associated dermatitis, and intertriginous dermatitis. Periwound Moisture-Associated Dermatitis Etiology The production of exudate is a normal result of the inflammatory stage of wound healing. However, the advent of moist wound healing has brought with it an understanding that moisture balance is the key to optimal outcomes. Excessive amounts of wound exudate can cause the periwound (within 4 cm of wound edge) skin to become macerated and even break down. This type of skin damage is call periwound moisture-associated dermatitis." }, { "docid": "D2677338#0", "title": "http://www.icd9data.com/2012/Volume1/680-709/700-709/707/707.03.htm\n.", "text": "Pressure ulcer, lower back Short description: Pressure ulcer, low back.

Definition A pressure ulcer is an area of skin that breaks down when constant pressure, or pressure in combination with shear and/or friction, is placed against the skin. This skin breakdown can ultimately result in exposure of the underlying tissue, including bone. Pressure ulcers usually occur over a bony prominence, such as the sacrum (tail bone), hip bone, elbow, or ischium. Alternative names include pressure sore, decubitus ulcer, decubiti, and bedsore.

Do you know that each day 100 new cases of oral cancer will be diagnosed in the United States, and one person every hour of every day will die from it?1 In addition, an increase in new cases has occurred among populations such as nonsmoking men and women under 50 years old who have not typically been at risk in the past. New research has surfaced in the last five years that provides compelling evidence for certain variants of the human papillomavirus (HPV) as a causative agent, joining tobacco, alcohol, sun exposure, and diet as the risk factors associated with new oral cancer cases. 2Considering these alarming revelations, the role of the dental hygienist in oral cancer-related patient education and examinations is more vital than ever.-------------------------------------------------Consider reading these articles Finding comfort with a dry mouth: Causes of xerostomia and treatment Follow-up after definitive therapy The Big \"\"C\"\": What's new?-------------------------------------------------Data collected between 2008 and 2011 seem to indicate that oral cancer is on the rise, more aggressively among populations that have not historically been impacted by the disease. In addition, this data shows that the instances of the disease within the oral environment has shifted from cases associated with tobacco and alcohol (the anterior of the mouth) to the posterior of the oral cavity, which is associated with cases caused by HPV type 16.3 This indicates a dramatic departure from historical data. From a dental hygiene perspective, this switch has real-world implications for screening and patient education. Oral-health professionals have an obligation to patients to educate them about the very real threat of oral cancer, helping them understand that screening for oral cancer is as important as cervical, prostate, or breast cancer screenings. Primary risk factors The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research cites the five most common contributors to oral cancers as: Tobacco and alcohol use. Most cases of oral cancer are linked to cigarette smoking, heavy alcohol use, or the use of both tobacco and alcohol together. Using tobacco plus alcohol poses a much greater risk than using either substance alone." }, { "docid": "D2328715#0", "title": "http://www.woundsource.com/patientcondition/pressure-ulcers-stage-i\nPressure Ulcers, Stage I", "text": "Pressure ulcers are localized areas of tissue necrosis that typically develop when soft tissue is compressed between a bony prominence and an external surface for a long period of time. Stage I pressure ulcers are characterized by superficial reddening of the skin (or red, blue or purple hues in darkly pigmented skin) that when pressed does not turn white ( non-blanchable erythema ). In the sense that an ulcer is a defect of the skin into the dermis, stage I pressure ulcers are actually a misnomer. However, if the cause of the ulcer is not relieved, these will progress and form proper ulcers. Stage I pressure ulcers differ from reactive hyperemia (increased bloodflow to an area after a period of ischemia) in that reactive hyperemia will typically resolve itself within 3/4 the time of ischemia and will blanche when pressure is applied. Symptoms of Stage I Pressure Ulcers In addition to the aforementioned non-blanchable erythema, stage I pressure ulcers may also differ in temperature (warmer or cooler), consistency (firmer or softer) or may be more tender than adjacent tissue. Figure 1: Stage I pressure ulcer development Etiology Pressure ulcers are accepted to be caused by three different tissue forces: Prolonged pressure In most cases, this pressure is caused by the force of bone against a surface, as when a patient remains in a seated or supine position for an extended period. When this pressure exceeds the tissue capillary pressure, it deprives the surrounding tissues of oxygen and can lead to tissue necrosis if left untreated. Shear This force is typically a result of the skin of a patient staying in one place as the deep fascia and skeletal muscle slide down, which can pinch off blood vessels and in turn lead to ischemia and tissue necrosis. Friction Friction is the opposing force to the shear force." }, { "docid": "D1196463#0", "title": "http://journals.lww.com/aswcjournal/Pages/articleviewer.aspx?year=2015&issue=04000&article=00007&type=Fulltext\nThe Role of Nutrition for Pressure Ulcer Management: National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel, European Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel, and Pan Pacific Pressure Injury Alliance White Paper", "text": "The Role of Nutrition for Pressure Ulcer Management: National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel, European Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel, and Pan Pacific Pressure Injury Alliance White Paper Posthauer, Mary Ellen RDN, LD, CD, FAND; Banks, Merrilyn Ph D; Dorner, Becky RDN, LD, FAND; Schols, Jos M.

The path of ketones is through the blood stream, and then they are passed through the urine. Therefore, the logical test for ketone levels is through these systems. When ketones are found during a urine test, further investigation is required to ascertain the actual health status of the affected person. While the normal ketones range in urine should be negative, its measuring range in the human body could be 0 to 160 mg/dl (milligram per decilitre, 1 litre = 10 dl). Ketones are produced in the body when fats, rather than glucose, are used to produce energy. This substance is an acid which can be harmful to the body if ketones are allowed to accumulate. Abnormal ketone values may indicate: Diabetic ketoacidosis, insulin overdose, insufficient food intake, nausea and vomiting, starvation, strict dieting, severe stress, severe fever due to infection. Further action might be required if ketones are found in urine.

Ketones are formed when the body breaks down fat, so when you are starving and have not eaten enough your body starts breaking down the fat from the cells that is already stored and that is why ketones appear, they are a byproduct of this fat breaking. Ketones can also appear from uncontrolled diabetes mellitus and rarely after drinking copious and significant amounts of alcohol. The presence of abnormally high numbers of ketones in the urine (ketonuria) usually results from uncontrolled diabetes mellitus.

I think one of the main reasons this happens is because the descriptive label most often applied to this way of eating is Zero Carb, rather than Zero Plant Foods, All-Meat, or Carnivore (labels which are actually far more descriptively accurate). Additionally, this way of eating probably attracts more people from the low carb community than from any other dietary background. The question comes up often enough that I felt it might be helpful to collect some of the best responses offered by long term Zero Carb practitioners and put them into one place for easy reference.

Ketones (also called ketone bodies) are molecules generated during fat metabolism, whether from the fat in the guacamole you just ate or fat you were carrying around your middle. When our bodies are breaking down fat for energy, most of the it gets converted more or less directly to ATP. ( Remember high school biology? This is the \"\"energy molecule.\"\") But ketones are also produced as part of the process. When people eat less carbohydrate, their bodies turn to fat for energy, so it makes sense that more ketones are generated." }, { "docid": "D829719#0", "title": "https://quizlet.com/10322021/ketone-bodies-flash-cards/\nKetone Bodies", "text": "\"12 terms ojames03Ketone Bodies Learn Flashcards Write Spell Test Match Gravity Advertisement Upgrade to remove ads Try diagrams on Quizlet!See what you're learning in a whole new way.

The ketogenic diet (often termed keto) is a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares many similarities with the Atkins and low-carb diets. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. The reduction in carbs puts your body into a metabolic state called ketosis.

Sigurdsson MD. Last modified December 27, 2017There is a lot of confusion about the term ketosis among medical professionals as well as laypeople. It is important to understand when and why nutritional ketosis occurs, and why it should not be confused with the metabolic disorder we call ketoacidosis. Ketosis is a metabolic state where the liver produces small organic molecules called ketone bodies. Most cells in the body can use ketone bodies as a source of energy. When there is a limited supply of external energy sources, such as during prolonged fasting or carbohydrate restriction, ketone bodies can provide energy for most organs. In this situation, ketosis can be regarded as a reasonable, adaptive physiologic response that is essential for life, enabling us to survive periods of famine. Nutritional ketosis should not be confused with ketoacidosis, a metabolic condition where the blood becomes acidic as a result of the accumulation of ketone bodies. Ketoacidosis can have serious consequences and may need urgent medical treatment. The most common forms are diabetic ketoacidosis and alcoholic ketoacidosis." }, { "docid": "D540059#0", "title": "http://www.eatthis.com/benefits-of-coconut-oil\n20 Benefits of Coconut Oil", "text": "You’ve no doubt noticed that coconut oil is on everyone’s lips lately.

A study published in the Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health back in 1985 proved that a single injection of capric acid (which abounds in coconut oil) resulted in “initially rapid, then a gradual decrease in food consumption and a parallel loss of body weight” in male rats. Further studies have shown that it’s the capric acid and other medium chain triglycerides (MCT) in coconut oil can increase 24-hour energy expenditure in humans by as much as 5 percent.

The OP technically asked for ketosis, which is clinically defined as a ketone level of more than 0.2 mmol/d L, which means that people are more or less in ketosis within a day as all they have to do to produce significant amounts of ketones is empty liver glycogen, which happens in about 12-16 hours. The major determinant of whether the liver will produce ketone bodies is the amount of liver glycogen present (8). The primary role of liver glycogen is to maintain normal blood glucose levels. When dietary carbohydrates are removed from the diet and blood glucose falls, glucagon signals the liver to break down its glycogen stores to glucose which is released into the bloodstream. After approximately 12-16 hours, depending on activity, liver glycogen is almost completely depleted." }, { "docid": "D362299#0", "title": "http://symptomstreatment.org/ketones-in-urine-causes-symptoms-treatment/\nKetones in Urine-Causes, Symptoms, Treatment", "text": "Ketones in Urine-Causes, Symptoms, Treatment– by admin 2First off, what are ketones? Ketones are by-products of fat and muscle metabolism. This occurs when the body does not have enough glucose stores, which are converted from carbohydrates to use as cellular energy. When these levels are depleted, or the body is unable to use what glucose stores are available, sources are then derived from fat and muscle cells and subsequently used for energy with the intention of keeping cellular functions working at adequate levels. As a result, the byproducts of fat and muscle cell breakdown, ketones, then circulate in the body through the blood, are excreted by the kidneys, and finally exit the body via urination. Ketones are very acidic and high levels could be toxic and may lead to various health problems associated with a medical condition called ketoacidosis.

These inferences follow directly from the metabolic effects of ketosis and the higher inherent energy present in d -β-hydroxybutyrate relative to pyruvate, the normal mitochondrial fuel produced by glycolysis leading to an increase in the Δ G ′ of ATP hydrolysis. The large categories of disease for which ketones may have therapeutic effects are: (1)diseases of substrate insufficiency or insulin resistance, (2)diseases resulting from free radical damage, (3)disease resulting from hypoxia. Current ketogenic diets are all characterized by elevations of free fatty acids, which may lead to metabolic inefficiency by activation of the PPAR system and its associated uncoupling mitochondrial uncoupling proteins. New diets comprised of ketone bodies themselves or their esters may obviate this present difficulty. Previous article Next article1. Metabolic effects of ketone body metabolism The therapeutic potentials of mild ketosis flow directly from a thorough understanding of their metabolic effects, particularly upon mitochondrial redox states and energetics and upon substrate availability. The data on metabolic effects of ketone body metabolism presented here has been published previously [1,2]. It presents studies of the isolated working rat heart perfused with 11 m M glucose alone, glucose plus 1 m M acetoacetate and 4 m M d - β -hydroxybutyrate, glucose+100 n M insulin or the combination of glucose, ketone bodies and insulin. The isolated working perfused heart was studied because of the relative homogeneity of the tissue and the simplicity of its output, the number of parameters which could be accurately measured, particularly O 2 consumption relative to actual hydraulic work output of the heart. In our analysis of disease states, it has been assumed that the effects of ketone metabolism in heart would mimic those in brain, which was not analyzed in this detailed manner for a number of technical reasons, most prominently the inhomogeneous nature of the tissue and its lack of quantifiable outputs." }, { "docid": "D1962573#0", "title": "https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2014/02/02/ketogenic-diet-health-benefits.aspx\nKetogenic Diet Improves Insulin Sensitivity and Numerous Aging Markers", "text": "\"Ketogenic Diet Improves Insulin Sensitivity and Numerous Aging Markers2.9KFebruary 02, 2014 • 708,303 views Edition: English Previous Next Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available.

A growing body of research is challenging the belief that aging is beyond your control, prompting scientists to begin thinking about ways we can slow our aging clocks to a slow crawl. Although this is a relatively new branch of science, there are some factors that appear to be key in controlling how quickly you age. One major factor seems to be insulin signaling and the metabolic \"\"engines\"\" you have running day to day, which are largely controlled by the foods you eat.

Although ketones are a source of energy that almost all of your body cells can use, ketones are actually a byproduct of fat oxidation. In other words, when your body burns fat, it produces ketones that can be used for energy. The more fat your body burns, the more ketones are produced. Although foods do not have ketones, the foods you choose can help you promote ketosis -- the state in which your body uses ketones. How To Produce Ketones To get your body to produce ketones, you need to follow a very low-carb, moderate protein and high fat diet. It is only when your daily carb intake drops below 50 g a day that your body produces enough ketones as a result of utilizing fat as its main source of fat." } ]

Using a test light (and with both the blade, clutch and seat safety switches closed) I get no light when I turn the key on and touch the test light to the solenoid terminal going to the starter, and no light when the key is turned on and I touch the single spade terminal from the ignition switch. The solenoid ground is good. It would seem there is a problem with either the ignition switch or one of the safety switches since I'm not getting current to the solenoid with the key on. The seat switch is a simple \"\"ground out\"\" - when you sit on the seat it breaks the metal contact (easily visible, not a button switch.) I manually pushed in the buttons on both the blade and clutch switches, so either there is an internal lack of contact within these switches or else the ignition switch is bad. I removed the ignition switch (5 terminals marked G, L, M, S and \"\"blank\"\" - I assume \"\"blank\"\" is the Bat terminal?)" }, { "docid": "D665064#0", "title": "http://www.ebay.com/bhp/transponder-key\nTransponder Key", "text": "\"Mitsubishi Transponder Key BMW Key Transponder Toyota Transponder Key OEM Master Rubber Transponder Chip Dot Key Blank 4D 89785-08020 USA SELLER$13.77Buy It Now Free Shipping524 watching \| 1836 sold Chipped Ignition Key.

Scroll down to the List of Tables (LOT) section so that you can update it. Part 1- Updating the Fields Scroll through the document and right-click your mouse cursor over any of the items in the List of Tables (LOT), List of Figures (LOF) or List of Objects (LOO). Note: Macintosh users who have only one mouse button should hold down the CTRL key and click once on any of those entries. From the pulldown menu that appears, select Update Field. Your screen will be similar to the image below: Note: Updating the LOT, LOF and LOO is very similar to updating the Table of Contents, except the word Table, Figure or Object appear on every entry. This is because MS Word is capturing all the text using the style 15 Caption Figure, 16 Caption Table or 16a Caption Object. Unfortunately this is not something that can be prevented in Microsoft Word, so you will have to remove those words manually from the LOT and LOF using the following technique.

Follow 10 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Hyundai bought Kia in 1998 but I've never seen a Kia version of the Tiburon. Some models share some parts, like the Elantra and Spectra, but the chasis I think are still different. The newer minivans have very close resemblances now (Hyundai Entourage, Kia Sedona). I've read that Hyundai plans to leave Kia as the \"\"young/cheap/sporty,\"\" brand and try to make the Hyundai brand more luxurious. It's possible they may make a Kia coupe but I haven't heard of it. The next Tiburon is rumored to be rear-wheel-drive.

But some vans are more practical than others. To help out with your decision-making process, we've put together a list of the 10 features we consider the most important to have in these family-centered vehicles, plus some bonus goodies. We've eliminated basics like rear air-conditioning controls and dual sliding doors that are standard fare on most, if not all, modern-day minivans, and concentrated on more recent innovations that you won't find in every van on the market. The features are arranged in no particular order. We've listed the minivans that are available with each feature — either as standard equipment or as a factory option.1. Adjustable pedals or telescoping steering wheel: People come in all sizes, and in order to be a sane parent, you've got to be able to find a safe, comfortable position behind the wheel. Adjustable pedals are a big help for those of shorter stature, as they allow you to bring the pedals closer without having to move the entire seat forward. A telescoping steering wheel performs much the same function (you're moving the wheel closer or farther from your body), but even taller adults will find that it allows them to tailor a driving position to their liking. In an ideal world, minivans would include both features, but for now, several models offer one or the other." }, { "docid": "D2133934#0", "title": "http://fortune.com/2015/06/29/korean-japanese-cars-quality/\nHow Korean car makers beat out the Japanese", "text": "Autos automated cars How Korean car makers beat out the Japanese An unanticipated problem was encountered, check back soon and try again Error Code: MEDIA_ERR_UNKNOWNSession ID: 2018-04-12:f836f0dc9fed97abe6a9d70e Player ID: jumpstart_video_1OKBy Doron Levin June 29, 2015Last week, Hyundai and Kia’s achievement was made official: Korean cars had eclipsed Japanese autos in quality. J. D. Power rated the mass-market auto brands tops for initial quality, with Kia just behind No. 1 Porsche and Hyundai, No. 4 behind Jaguar. Porsche and Jaguar are niche luxury brands. For the sister automakers, the endorsement was sweet recognition; but it hardly shocked a global industry of competitors and analysts that had been tracking their steady improvement for a decade. The strategies that Hyundai and Kia used to leapfrog Japanese brands like Toyota and German brands like Mercedes-Benz proved not just straightforward, deliberate and stunningly effective – but more or less transparent to those who bothered to watch. The remarkable reversal of fortune that vaulted Hyundai and Kia past the Japanese auto industry, in terms of the initial quality of their vehicles, can be traced to three factors. Chief among them was a commitment to quality. Hyundai – which controls the two affiliated South Korean brands – recognized that quality was poor and that without vast improvement the automakers had no chance of succeeding in the U. S. In 1998, Hyundai enacted a consistent and dedicated corporate directive to place quality before all else." }, { "docid": "D1696569#0", "title": "https://www.autonews.com/section/buysell\nDealership Buy/Sell", "text": "\"Dealership Buy/Sell Search: This Automotive News feature lists dealership acquisitions as reported by brokers, official announcements and news media.

Take a seat and join us in this journey through time. “In fact, how the Sonata has evolved over the past 30 years serves as the history of the nation’s largest automaker,” said Koo Sang, a professor at Kookmin University. “ The Sonata was the most luxurious car when it was launched, but it has become a family sedan to show the nation’s fast economic development,” he said. First generation (1985-1988)The first Sonata made its debut in November 1985, based on the Stellar sedan. As its marketing campaign slogan “Car only for VIPs” implied, the sedan aimed to target those who had achieved success during the times of fast economic growth. Its first buyer was popular actor Shin Sung-il. It came equipped with “premium” features at that time such as cruise control and automatic power seats. But the automaker still lacked the ability to develop the core parts of the Sonata such as an engine, which was supplied by Mitsubishi." }, { "docid": "D3402270#0", "title": "http://www.carinsurancerates.com/car-insurance-prices-by-make.html\nHow Much Does It Cost to Insure A....", "text": "\"How Much Does It Cost to Insure A.... The kind of vehicle you drive is the second largest factor insurance providers use when determining your car insurance price. Within the topic of the \"\"kind\"\" of vehicle you drive, the manufacturer of your vehicle ranks first of the overall pricing factors, thought being that certain sorts of OEM parts (parts produced by the Original Equipment Manufacturer) are more expensive simply because they carry the name a luxury brand (the second largest determining factor is the model year / age of a vehicle, followed by the body style / chassis in third.) As a consumer and, particularly before purchasing a new or used vehicle, it would behoove you to consider the price of that vehicle's insurance premium before you buy. This guide should put you on the right path when selecting a make or model for future purchase. We've aggregated and averaged the average car insurance price by make and model so you can get a good idea of what you're looking at on a per make-model basis before you buy (or begin research for) a car or truck. NOTE: The figures below are averages of quoted policy prices from various public and private sources. Your actual price will probably vary, and the use these figures for any purpose other than cursory research is not advised. Clean driving records are assumed, and the model-year of the car – which will move your price significantly – is not taken into consideration for the purposes of this cheat sheet.

Why I Bought a Hyundai After graduating from college over a dozen years ago, one of the first things that I wanted to do was to purchase a car. At the time, my car had nearly 200,000 miles and a myriad of issues, I needed something reliable to get me to and from work. I test drove a number of different vehicles, but my finances really limited my options. With my down payment and anticipated car payment, I limited my options to purchasing a used model from Toyota or Honda, or instead opting for a brand new model from one of the discount brands. There was something appealing about owning a brand new car, and having a blank canvas of sorts to take pride in, and take care of.

A Kia Car FAQ", "text": "Where Are Kia Cars Built? A Kia Car FAQJuly 18, 2014Comments Email Kia cars are built at several different manufacturing plants, the majority of them located in Kia's home country, South Korea. Headquartered in Seoul, Kia Motors is South Korea's second largest automobile manufacturer. Its history dates back to 1944, where it started producing bicycles and steel tubes. In 1952, Kia started producing automobiles, motorcycles and trucks, mostly for the domestic Korean market. In 1994, two years after the creation of its American arm, Kia Motors America, Kia branded vehicles appeared on the North American market. Since then, the company has consistently expanded its reach from its original Korean market, to markets in North America and Europe. The first assembly plant in North America was opened in 2006, in West Point, Georgia. Having a domenstic manufacturing foothold helped the company increase production and gain a competitive edge in the market share, with sales surpassing their competitors such as Mazda and Chrysler. Kia also has an assembly plant in Europe, located in Zilina, Slovakia." }, { "docid": "D3503165#0", "title": "http://www.jdpower.com/cars/articles/jd-power-studies/top-ranked-cars-trucks-and-suvs-jd-power-2014-initial-quality-study\nTop-Ranked Cars, Trucks and SUVs in the J.D.

Follow 11 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: I don't feel this question has been fully or properly answered. Unlike the Toyota Matrix/Pontiac Vibe that rolls off the exact same assembly line in a single factory that is not the case with Hyundai/Kia. Hyundai and Kia make mostly the same models with slight visual differences like Mercury/Ford, however they are built in different factories and for this reason Hyundai seems to have a slightly higher build quality then Kia. So, even if I had to pay a couple hundred more for the Accent over the Rio or Sonata over the Optima its worth it in the long run. As you'll see the brand shares many of the same component parts and engines like the new Kia Borrego mentioned above uses the same V8 as the new Hyundai Genesis. When I went to a Genesis special event the guy giving test drives tried telling me the 3.8L V6 in the Genesis was a brand new engine and not the same engine in my Azera, I haven't found any proof or reason for that...just marketing.beavanjb · 10 years ago3 0 Comment Asker's rating Is Kia Owned By Hyundai Source (s):https://shrinke.im/a73f Fvierra · 1 year ago0 0 Comment Yes.

There are exceptions, of course, perhaps most notably the 10-cylinder engine in the Dodge Viper or the 12-cylinder engines installed in several high-end luxury sedans. But most of today's vehicles employ the more common cylinder counts. An engine cylinder is where the combustion process occurs. Inside each cylinder is a piston, which moves up and down inside the cylinder (or side to side, as we will learn). Each cylinder is connected to a crankshaft. The crankshaft delivers the energy created by the combustion process to the transmission and, ultimately, to the wheels that drive the vehicle. Generally speaking, the more cylinders an engine has, the more horsepower and torque an engine makes. Engine cylinders are typically arranged in a vertical orientation, lined up one after another from the front to the rear of the engine, or in a V-shaped orientation with an equal number of cylinders on each side. When engine cylinders are vertically oriented, the engine has an \"\"inline\"\" configuration, which is used in conjunction with 4, 5, or 6 cylinders." } ]

High-calorie treats, chips and fried foods contain high amounts of both fat and calories, making it likely that you gain weight if you consume a steady diet of those types of foods. Because fat has 9 calories per gram, foods with a lot of fat grams naturally contain more calories. You are less likely to gain weight from eating vegetables or fruits.

Of all fowl, goose meat offers the most opportunities to match with wine. Most associate Christmas goose with Victorian England. During the 19th century, in England, geese were served (like practically all other animals) at an older age than those of today – up to nine months as opposed to four to six months. Older birds are tough and the meat must be tenderized before cooking (through marination and aging) before cooking. Today’s geese still have a whiff of gaminess, but just enough to appeal to the connoisseur. There is no need to tenderize chemically or mechanically as feeding and raising techniques have improved.

S. Department of Agriculture, they have enough fiber, vitamins and minerals to be considered a vegetable and rich source of complex carbohydrates while still being high enough in protein to act as a substitute for meat, poultry or seafood. Eating pinto beans, which are the most commonly consumed variety of bean in the United States, helps to fulfill your protein requirement while keeping your total fat, saturated fat and cholesterol intake low. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Protein Content of Pinto Beans A 1/4-cup serving of cooked pinto beans contains 3.85 grams of protein. This is not complete protein, however. Pinto beans -- like all other beans besides soy beans -- have a high concentration of many of the amino acids your body needs in order to synthesize vital protein-based compounds, such as tryptophan, isoleucine, valine and histidine, but they do not have enough of the other amino acids to supply your body's total protein needs. Making Complete Protein To make the protein that you receive from pinto beans complete, you'll need to ensure that your diet includes rich sources of the amino acids that pinto beans lack. If you regularly consume animal-based products like meat, poultry, fish, shellfish or dairy products, or you eat soy or quinoa -- the only two plant-based sources of complete protein -- you already have complete proteins in your meals. If you do not, however, you can get the amino acids pinto beans don't have by eating a variety of whole grains, nuts, seeds and produce throughout the day. Expert Recommendations The USDA says that women need between 5 to 5 1/2 ounces of high-protein foods each day, while men need around 6 to 6 1/2 ounces. A 1/4-cup serving of cooked pinto beans counts as 1 ounce of protein and is equivalent to the protein content of one egg, 1/2 ounce of nuts or seeds and 1 ounce of cooked meat, poultry or seafood." }, { "docid": "D966832#0", "title": "http://www.water-retention.net/kidneys/\nKidneys", "text": "Kidneys February 18, 2015 by Linda Lazarides 6 Comments My kidneys have shut down twice Question from reader Kim I am 43 year old female and have 20 plus pounds of water weight or more.

The role of intravenous urography, which is regarded as the gold standard for the diagnosis of ureteric colic, is being challenged by CT, which has become the first‐line investigation in a number of centres. The management of ureteric colic has also changed. The role of medical treatment has expanded beyond symptomatic control to attempt to target some of the factors in stone retention and thereby improve the likelihood of spontaneous stone expulsion. Ureteric colic is an important and frequent emergency in medical practice. It is most commonly caused by the obstruction of the urinary tract by calculi.

The detection of urinary crystals is not synonymous with kidney stones or the clinical signs associated with them, nor is detection of urine crystals irrefutable evidence of a stone-forming tendency, but there is some association with an increased risk for kidney stones in animals that are afflicted with crystalluria, and crystals in the urine can be an indication of kidney stones (also referred to as renal stones). Crystals form only in urine that is, or recently has been, supersaturated with crystallogenic substances. Proper identification and interpretation of urine crystals is important for determining a medical strategy for treating the condition, since certain crystal types may indicate an underlying disease. Evaluation of urine crystals may aid in (1) detection of the disorders that predispose the animal to stone formation, (2) estimation of the mineral composition of the stones, and (3) evaluation of the effectiveness of the medical procedures initiated to dissolve or prevent the stones. Crystalluria in animals with anatomically and functionally normal urinary tracts is usually harmless because the crystals are eliminated before they grow large enough to interfere with normal urinary function. Even so, they represent a risk factor for kidney stones. Crystals that form in the urine following elimination or removal of urine from the patient often are of little clinical importance (i.e., crystals formed in the urine after leaving the body). Identification of crystals that have formed in vitro (in a lab environment) will not justify therapy. Situations that will require further follow-up are instances where some types of crystals are detected in patients without symptoms ( asymptomatic ); when large aggregates of crystals (e.g., calcium oxalate or magnesium ammonium phosphate) in apparently normal individuals are detected; or, when detection of any form of crystals in fresh urine collected from patients with confirmed kidney stones may have diagnostic, prognostic, or therapeutic importance." }, { "docid": "D1869628#0", "title": "http://kidneystoneshelp.net/what-does-kidney-stone-look-like-when-passed/\nWhat Does Kidney Stone Look Like When Passed", "text": "What Does Kidney Stone Look Like When Passed Kidney stone I have kidney stones are a hoax and which might be in balanced.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASEOrthomolecular Medicine News Service, February 11, 2013What Really Causes Kidney Stones (And Why Vitamin C Does Not) (OMNS Feb 11, 2013) A recent widely-publicized study claimed that vitamin C supplements increased the risk of developing kidney stones by nearly a factor of two. [ 1] The study stated that the stones were most likely formed from calcium oxalate, which can be formed in the presence of vitamin C (ascorbate), but it did not analyze the kidney stones of participants. Instead, it relied on a different study of kidney stones where ascorbate was not tested. This type of poorly organized study does not help the medical profession or the public, but instead causes confusion. The study followed 23,355 Swedish men for a decade. They were divided into two groups, one that did not take any supplements (22,448), and another that took supplements of vitamin C (907). The average diet for each group was tabulated, but not in much detail. Then the participants who got kidney stones in each group were tabulated, and the group that took vitamin C appeared to have a greater risk of kidney stones. The extra risk of kidney stones from ascorbate presented in the study is very low, 147 per 100,000 person-years, or only 0.15% per year." }, { "docid": "D1671790#0", "title": "http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/healthlibrary/conditions/kidney_and_urinary_system_disorders/kidney_stones_85,P01494/\nKidney Stones", "text": "\"Home > Health Library Kidney Stones<< Back to Kidney and Urinary System Disorders Click Image to Enlarge What is a kidney stone? Kidney stones are hard objects, made up of millions of tiny crystals. Most kidney stones form on the interior surface of the kidney, where urine leaves the kidney tissue and enters the urinary collecting system. Kidney stones can be small, like a tiny pebble or grain of sand, but are often much larger. The job of the kidneys is to maintain the body's balance of water, minerals and salts. Urine is the product of this filtering process. Under certain conditions, substances normally dissolved in urine, such as calcium, oxalate and phosphate, become too concentrated and can separate out as crystals. A kidney stone develops when these crystals attach to one another, accumulating into a small mass, or stone. Kidney stones come in a variety of mineral types: Calcium stones: Most kidney stones are composed of calcium and oxalate. Many people who form calcium containing stones have too much calcium in their urine, a condition known as hypercalciuria There are several reasons why hypercalciuria may occur." }, { "docid": "D627843#0", "title": "https://steptohealth.com/6-foods-can-lead-kidney-stones/\n6 Foods that Can Lead to Kidney Stones", "text": "Home » Healthy habits » 6 Foods that Can Lead to Kidney Stones6 Foods that Can Lead to Kidney Stones Kidney stones can be very painful.

They can occur anywhere along the urinary tract, between the kidney and bladder, and vary in shape and size - some are as large as a golf ball. The main cause of kidney stones is a lack of fluids, which allows salts and minerals to concentrate and crystallize over the course of weeks to months. Passing a stone can be painful and may even require surgery. Approximately 1 in 11 Americans have kidney stones, with data showing an increasing trend in the prevalence of this disease. Causes and Risk Factors Click to Interact Kidney stones The lack of proper hydration signified by producing less than 1 liter of urine daily is the primary cause of kidney stone disease. Urine is largely made up of water, which acts as the solvent for calcium, oxalate, uric acid, and other crystal-forming substances found in urine. Without ample water, urine becomes supersaturated allowing these components to fall out of solution and crystallize.

Of those who have had kidney stones in the past, almost half will go on to develop another case of kidney stones within 7 years if they do not put in motion preventative measures immediately. Kidney stones are formed when specific chemicals become concentrated enough in the urine which then forms crystals. Most stones occur when calcium combines with one of two substances: oxalate or phosphorous. Stones can also form from uric acid, which forms as the body metabolizes protein. These crystals then grow into larger stones over time if unresolved, which at all times means they can make their way through the urinary tract. If this happens, stones can get stuck somewhere which will cause pain and block the flow of urine. Applying a prevention plan doesn’t need to be complicated.

Other causes of flank pain like gastrointestinal disorders, blood clots, herpes zoster infection, radiculitis, arthritis or infection of the spine, disc disease etc. are also present. The location and severity of the flank pain generally depends on the underlying cause and varies from moderate to acute and usually worsens with movement, e.g. a right flank pain represents problem in the right kidney whereas a left flank pain indicates a pain in the left kidney. Sometimes a minor condition may give rise to a moderate amount of pain in the flank region that can worsen with increased body movements. Acute flank pain may be piercing, without any increase or decrease in the pain with movements. The pain in the flank region can spread in a downward direction resulting in testicular pain (in men) and labial pain (in women)." }, { "docid": "D2902911#0", "title": "http://www.answers.com/Q/What_side_of_the_body_is_the_kidney_on\nAre your kidneys located on the left side?", "text": "Paul The Irishman 6,991 Contributions Are your kidneys located on the left side?you have 2 - 1 on each side.

Although they can be found swimming throughout all of the worlds major oceans orca typically prefer living in colder regions of the world where they can consume other marine mammals such as sea lions, walruses and other large prey. Orca that live in warmer tropical regions on the other hand tend to stick to a diet consisting of fish, squid and other small marine animals. Whether hunting for prey, playing around, resting or traveling throughout the ocean orca are extremely social animals and almost always travel in pods (groups) with other family members and friends. In fact their complex social structure, organized hunting techniques and long-term relationships is often compared to the social complexities of humans and elephants. The orcas lifestyle has even been considered by some researchers and marine biologists to have its own culture just like the culture of humans where different pods have different personalities, diets and behaviors. While these marine mammals are known for traveling in large pods some groups prefer living in larger pods than others. For instance killer whales that live in offshore pods tend to have anywhere from 25 – 75 pod members in a group while transient pods may contain an average of 2 – 6 pod members in a group. When it comes to raising their children female orca are very protective of their young and are very family oriented often caring for their calves for several years and remaining very protective of them over the course of their relationship. In addition to the mother other females within the pod will also care for and protect the calves and as many as four generations of family members may be seen living together in a single pod." }, { "docid": "D2771759#0", "title": "http://teacher.scholastic.com/dolphin/danint.htm\n.", "text": "\"Dolphins Home During Dan's online visit in the spring of 1997, he answered lots of questions from Scholastic Network subscribers about dolphins and about his research.

Here’s a list of some of the most interesting foods found in a killer whales stomach: Whales Sharks Polar Bears Reptiles Seabirds Moose Killer whales are very intelligent and are well-organized hunters known for using elaborate group oriented hunting techniques to scare, corner and trap their prey so that they can successfully eat it while also minimizing their own risk of being attack or harmed. One method killer whales use when hunting for food involves a pod of killer whales circling a school of fish and scaring them into a tight ball. The killer whales then take turns darting in and consuming the petrified fish or in some cases they’ll slam their flukes against the water to stun the fish before attacking and eating them." }, { "docid": "D1061943#0", "title": "http://www.answers.com/Q/What_do_you_call_a_group_of_killer_whales\nWhy are killer whales called killer whales?", "text": "\"jack Wise 281,232 Contributions Why are killer whales called killer whales?

Here are some fascinating facts about orcas.01of 10The Name Killer Whale Came From Whalers Killer Whale in Monterey Bay. Tory Kallman/Moment/Getty Images According to the book Whales and Dolphins in Question, the name killer whale originated with whalers, who called the species \"\"whale killer\"\" because of its tendency to prey on whales along with other species such as pinnipeds and fish. Over time, perhaps because of the whale's tenacity and ferocity in hunting, the name was switched to killer whale. So, where's orca from? The term orca comes from the killer whale's scientific name, Orcinus orca. Orca is Latin for \"\"a kind of whale.\"\" Because wild killer whales are not a threat to humans, and the term \"\"killer\"\" has a derogatory tone, many people now refer to these whales as orcas, rather than killer whales. At least in the U. S., and even among whale researchers, killer whale still seems to be used more commonly, although I've used both terms in this article.02of 10Killer Whales Are the Largest Dolphin Species Hawaiian spinner dolphin (Stenella longirostris), Au Au Channel, Maui, Hawaii.

He thinks it's a killer whale, I think it's a mako shark. Since you're so all-knowing, maybe you could settle this little bet for us: what is the fastest animal in the sea, and how do they measure the speed? There's a mondo pizza on the line in all this.- Fred Long Beach, NYA: Just about everyone who spends time on, in, or under the sea has his own candidate for speed champion of the ocean. Big game fishermen vote for the Marlin, Swordfish, Bluefin Tuna, or Wahoo; shark enthusiasts vote for the Shortfin Mako; small whale scientists favor the Spotted Dolphin, Dall's Porpoise, or Killer Whale; proponents of the 'maximum horsepower' school incline toward the great rorquals — the Blue, Fin, or Sei Whales. But speed in the water is extraordinarily difficult to measure, and most debates quickly degrade to heated speculation or run aground for lack of reliable data. Water is a very dense medium — about 750 times that of air — and requires enormous power to move through quickly. The physics of swimming is rather complicated, heavy and opaque with symbol-dense mathematics.

There are almost forty different species of dolphins with the killer whale being the largest.

Killer whales ( Orcinus orca) are the largest and oldest species of the dolphin family, which consists of almost thirty-five species. As this family is closely related to that of whales, some of the species of dolphins, including killer whales, are referred to as whales. Killer whales are found in the oceans across the globe, including the polar regions. Five types have been recognized till date, with more research in the offing.

Long story short, the Spanish sailors used to call them ' Matador de Ballenas ', which can be loosely translated to killer of whales. The 'of' in that phrase, has since been lost in translation. When we hear the word 'dolphin', what comes to mind is the endearing and highly intelligent bottlenose dolphin shown in movies and television shows. The fact though, is that there are 42 different species of dolphins, ranging from the Hector's dolphin, which happens to be the smallest dolphin in the world, to the Orca or killer whale, which happens to be the largest of all dolphin species. Different Types of Dolphins The 42 extant dolphin species are grouped into 4 types, based on various factors, including which part of the world they are found in and what type of water they inhabit. So, we have dolphins that inhabit oceans, like the famous bottlenose dolphins and killer whales, as well as ones that inhabit freshwater sources, like the Amazon river dolphin and South Asian river dolphin.

During breeding, humpback males try to escort breeding females and protect this escort by lunging, physically displacing, charging, and striking their rivals. Interesting Facts: Humpback whales make extensive seasonal migrations between high-latitude summering grounds and low-latitude wintering grounds. Male humpback whales produce a long-series of calls often called \"\"songs\"\" that can usually be heard during the winter breeding season, although song components are sometimes recorded during the summer as well. Researchers are unsure why humpback whales sing. It could be to attract females or to notify other whales that they are in the area.

[ 8]Because whales must rise to the surface often to breathe, only one half of their brain sleeps at a time. [ 8]Most etymologists believe the word “whale” comes from the High German word hwal, but it is also possible that it derived from the Old English word for “wheel” since the back of a whale rolling at the surface of the water resembles the rim of a large, submerged wheel. [ 15]Whales swim by moving their tails up and down in a vertical motion. In contrast, fish move their tails from side to side. [ 15]When a blue whale dives into the water, its head is already deeper than most scuba divers dare to go before its tail leaves the surface of the water. [ 6]Sperm whales can dive as deep as two miles into the water, and their bodies have unique physiological adaptations to allow them to survive the intense cold and crushing pressure of these dives. They can limit circulation to the brain and other organs, slow the heart to 10 beats per minute to conserve oxygen, and collapse the lungs and rib cage to withstand pressure. [ 17]Flukes are the two lobes of the whale tail “Fluking” is the term used for when a whale lifts its tail out of the water prior to making a deep dive. Because each whale species’ tail has unique features, fluking allows whale observers to identify species at a distance.

I have sailed across the Gulf of Mexico many times and currently live (during late Fall and all Winter and Spring) on the Gulf of California (in Mexico) aka Sea of Cortes to the USA. So forgive my exuberance. Yes, there are Orcas, like this video shows in my town of San Carlos, Sonora. In addition to Orcas (my daughters favorite) there are Humpback, Sperm, Grey and even Blue whales. According to this source (The Whales of Baja) there are as many species of whales in the Sea of Cortes as those that visit the Pacific side of the Baja. \"\" Although the lagoons of the Pacific side are well known as the winter birthing grounds of the gray whale, the Sea of Cortez is actually frequented by as many species of whales as is the Pacific side of Baja.

Warding Off Predators When a would-be predator tries to pick a fight with a cobra, the snake stands up for himself. Cobras are known as \"\"hooded snakes,\"\" as they are equipped with hoods around their heads that they can flare out at will. When the cobra feels threatened, he is able to stand upright, lifting the top third of his body straight up from the ground and flaring out his hood. In this position, he emits a loud hiss that sends a clear message to his opponent: Don't come any closer. Deadly Venom Sometimes, cobras can't avoid a fight, either with a predator like the mongoose or his prey.

Doesn't anyone know the top few snakes that cause the most deaths? Or at least the australian snake that causes the most deaths? Follow 15 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: I'm afraid no one has answered you correctly so far. That is because it's a hard question to answer. Mambas and Kraits are rarely involved with human beings. The Gaboon Viper of South America has the longest fangs of all snakes, and there are many bad Rattlesnakes, and the Sea Snakes have a powerful venom, and the King Brown of Australia is bad news, but these reptiles do NOT usually kill human beings, because either their venom is not that strong or they just don't run across people that often. To my knowledge, the snake responsible for the most human deaths every year is the King Cobra of India. The reason for this, is that, first of all, it has Neurotoxic venom, which attacks the nerves, and second of all, most of the huge population of India go around bare footed. This combination of things create many deadly encounters with this magnificent snake." }, { "docid": "D1540417#0", "title": "http://www.desertusa.com/animals/king-cobra.html\nThe King Cobra", "text": "\"The King Cobra (Ophioghagus hannah)by Jay Sharp Long, graceful, powerful and deadly, the appropriately named king cobra, of southeastern Asia, holds an almost exalted position atop the hierarchy of the venomous snakes of the world. King Cobra Characteristics The king cobra, if challenged, responds by aggressively raising the forward third of its body, with its head several feet above the ground, and spreading the iconic hood around its neck. It issues a distinctive hiss, which sounds more like a snarl than a typical reptilian hiss. Confronted eye to eye, the king cobra poses an intimidating threat. Health and Medical Disclaimer Click Here Size and Weight: The mature king cobra averages about 13 feet in length, but, says National Geographic, it may reach 18 feet, making it the longest venomous snake in the world. A relatively slender snake, it typically weighs some 15 to 20 pounds. ( By comparison, a reticulated python -- a thick-bodied snake -- may weigh several times more than a king cobra of the same length.) Unlike most snake species, the male king cobra is somewhat larger and heavier than the female. Head and Hood: The snake has a roughly wedge-shaped head, broad and flattened. It has two half-inch-long, fixed fangs, which it uses like hypodermic syringes to deliver venom from salivary glands that lie behind its eyes." }, { "docid": "D1672471#0", "title": "http://www.thetoptens.com/wild-predators/\nTop Ten Wild Predators", "text": "\"Top Ten Wild Predatorsfunckygarcon They can attack from anywhere, on the ground, in the air and even under the water, let's see who is the best hunter and the most feared one?

Fruit pies with Devonshire cream, roast beef and Yorkshire pudding, smoked salmon and smoked haddock are among my favorites, and, of course, kippers for breakfast. I am always delighted when I find kippers still going strong. Several years ago, when British Railways decided to stop serving kippers for breakfast on the Brighton to London train, there was an outcry that culminated in a letter of protest from Sir Laurence Olivier to The Times. He was accustomed to his kipper for breakfast every morning as he traveled from home to the National Theater. British Railways bowed to public demand, and the kippers were retained. For most Americans, however, kippers are not high on the list of desirable breakfast foods. Indeed, most do not even know what they are. A kipper is a smoked herring. After they have been caught, the herrings are gutted, split and lightly soaked in brine." } ]	[ { "docid": "D1138167#0", "title": "http://www.webmd.com/baby/features/foods-to-avoid-when-youre-pregnant\nFoods to Avoid When You're Pregnant", "text": "\"Foods to Avoid When You're Pregnant Pregnant?

Everyday foods and beverages take on new meaning, as some may present a danger to your developing baby. Whole and lightly processed foods, such as whole grains, lean meats, fruits and vegetables, legumes, and low-fat dairy should form the basis of your pregnancy diet. Here are items that you may want to avoid while you're pregnant. Raw or Undercooked Food of Animal Origin Undercooked animal foods -- such as rare meat, raw oysters, clams, sushi, unpasteurized eggs, raw cookie or cake dough, and homemade eggnog), may contain an array of bacteria, viruses, and parasites. To reduce your risk of foodborne illness, test the doneness of meat, poultry, and fish with a food thermometer, cook eggs until they are no longer runny, and follow baking instructions -- don't eat raw dough. Hot Dogs, Luncheon Meats, and Unpasteurized Dairy Foods These foods are prone to Listeria monocytogenes, a bacteria that causes listeriosis, which may result in miscarriage, stillbirth, or other serious health problems.

widespread industry since a very long time. The drying of different varieties of fishes is one of the world's oldest known preservation method, and dried fish has a storage life of several years. Ancient methods of preserving fish included drying, salting, pickling and smoking. All of these techniques are still used today but the more modern techniques of freezing and canning have taken on a large importance. The whole process of drying the fish or any kind processing done to the fishes is nothing but putting enzymatic or microbiological activity either in the presence or absence of salt.

For the most part, you can continue with most of your prepregnancy life. But because the health and safety of your growing baby is essential, here’s a list of 11 things not to do while pregnant.1. Don’t eat these foods The biggest list of don’ts for pregnant women involves food. During your pregnancy, you should avoid: Raw meat and shellfish: Uncooked seafood (we’re looking at you, sushi), including oysters, mussels, and clams. Also avoid rare or undercooked beef and poultry. These can be contaminated with toxoplasmosis or salmonella. Deli meat: Deli meats can be contaminated with listeria, bacteria that can cross the placenta and infect your developing baby. An infection in utero could lead to blood poisoning and could be life-threatening for your baby. Fish with high levels of mercury: That includes fish such as shark, king mackerel, swordfish, and tilefish." }, { "docid": "D1226195#0", "title": "https://www.fda.gov/Food/ResourcesForYou/Consumers/ucm079667.htm\nPreventing Listeria Infections: What You Need to Know", "text": "Preventing Listeria Infections: What You Need to Know Share Tweet Linkedin Pin it Email Print Print & Share (PDF) 766KBImprimir y compartir En Español (Spanish) PDF (1.11 MB)Pregnant women are about 10 times more likely than the general population to get a Listeria infection. Pregnant Hispanic women are even more likely than non-Hispanic pregnant women to get a Listeria infection. This is probably caused by eating traditional soft cheese, such as “queso fresco,” and other traditional foods made with milk that is unpasteurized. Brands of these traditional foods made with pasteurized milk are available in stores and online. The Risk Certain foods – including ready-to-eat refrigerated foods, unpasteurized (raw) milk, and foods made with unpasteurized milk – often may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes (LM), the third leading cause of death from food poisoning. These foodborne bacteria can grow at refrigerator temperatures and can cause an illness that in most healthy people is unpleasant but not serious. But in people who are at high risk, LM can cause an illness called listeriosis which can be severe and even lead to death. The people at high risk include pregnant women and their unborn babies, newborns, older adults, and other persons with weakened immune systems, such as those with HIV/AIDS, cancer, diabetes or kidney disease, and transplant patients. While a pregnant woman may have only a mild, flu-like illness, or may not feel sick at all, listeriosis can lead to miscarriage, death of the unborn baby, a low-birth weight infant, health problems for the newborn, or even infant death. That’s why reducing risks from Listeria is so important." }, { "docid": "D200573#0", "title": "http://americanpregnancy.org/pregnancy-health/foods-to-avoid-during-pregnancy/\nFoods to Avoid During Pregnancy", "text": "Foods to Avoid During Pregnancy Home / Pregnancy Wellness / Foods to Avoid During Pregnancy Eating well-balanced meals is important at all times, but it is even more essential when you are pregnant.

Find a Nutritionist for healthy eating tips Foods You Shouldn’t Eat While Pregnant Raw Meat: Uncooked seafood and rare or undercooked beef or poultry should be avoided because of the risk of contamination with coliform bacteria, toxoplasmosis, and salmonella. Deli Meat: Deli meats have been known to be contaminated with listeria, which can cause miscarriage. Listeria has the ability to cross the placenta and may infect the baby, which could lead to infection or blood poisoning and may be life-threatening. If you are pregnant and you are considering eating deli meats, make certain that you reheat the meat until it is steaming .

I've been looking into a hose and I'm also thinking about the Hozelock Tricoflex which is available in the different diameters.

Kippered \"\"split\"\" herring A kipper is a whole herring, a small, oily fish, [1] that has been split in a butterfly fashion from tail to head along the dorsal ridge, gutted, salted or pickled, and cold-smoked over smouldering woodchips (typically oak ). In the United Kingdom, the Isle of Man, Japan [ citation needed], and a few North American regions, they are often eaten for breakfast. In Great Britain, kippers, along with other preserved smoked or salted fish such as the bloater and buckling, were also once commonly enjoyed as a high tea or supper treat, most popularly with inland and urban working-class populations before World War II. Contents [ hide ]1 Terminology2 Origin3 Colouring4 Preparation5 Kippers industry6 Related terms7 See also8 Notes9 Further reading10 External links Terminology [ edit]The English philologist and ethnographer Walter William Skeat derives the word from the Old English kippian, to spawn. The word has various possible parallels, such as Icelandic kippa which means \"\"to pull, snatch\"\" and the Germanic word kippen which means \"\"to tilt, to incline\"\". Similarly, the Middle English kipe denotes a basket used to catch fish. Another theory traces the word kipper to the kip, or small beak, that male salmon develop during the breeding season.

Above Your Head Overhead cabinet width can vary from one manufacturer to another, but depth and height are standardized to accommodate average height of homeowners and the size of most appliances. Overhead cabinets are typically between 12 and 13 inches deep, except for microwave cabinets, which are 15 to 18 inches deep to accommodate most standard microwave sizes. The cabinets placed above a fridge are also slightly deeper, typically measuring 24 inches deep. The standard height of an overhead cabinet is 30 inches, but 36-inch or 42-inch tall cabinets are available to allow you to extend the cabinets to the ceiling to maximize storage space.

If you are thinking about painting your existing cabinets and wondering what it cost, I hope to shed some light on that in this blog post. This is a question we get asked often. I'd like to answer it by talking about what it would cost if you hired a professional paint company to paint your kitchen cabinets, not doing it yourself. Also there are lots of painters who claim to paint kitchen cabinets for a \"\"good price,\"\" but in the end, the cabinets turn out looking terrible. Painting is about 75-80% less expensive than refacing or replacing cabinets. So keep this in mind! Painting or finishing cabinets requires many years of experience, knowledge of woodwork, good preparation and even safety practices.3 Price Options For Painting Your Kitchen Cabinets Good: Some companies will brush and roll your kitchen cabinets. They will not remove your doors, drawers or hardware but will carefully paint your cabinets in place. If you have a rental property, this is probably your least expensive option." }, { "docid": "D1919486#0", "title": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitchen_cabinets\nKitchen cabinet", "text": "\"Kitchen cabinet From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Kitchen cabinets)navigation search For the political term, see Kitchen Cabinet.

These are also sometimes referred to as cabinet depth refrigerators. They appear more stylish than traditional refrigerators, though you will likely be sacrificing some storage space. A counter depth refrigerator will usually be between 23 and 27 inches (58 to 68 cm) deep, while a standard depth refrigerator is generally between 30 and 34 inches (76 to 86 cm) deep. More sizes are available to accommodate different needs, and sizes also vary significantly between brands and styles. Bear in mind that this type of refrigerator will still stick out slightly past your cabinets -- this is so the doors can open. Most people who choose a counter depth refrigerator do so because they find a true built-in refrigerator to be too expensive, or because they do not wish to remodel their entire kitchen. Built-in refrigerators are truly flush with the cabinets, and most often match the wood design of the cabinets. These are very expensive and can usually only be installed with a complete kitchen remodel.

Kitchen cabinets not only provide storage, but they define spatial organization and workflow for one of the most used spaces in a home. As such, cabinets are a focal point of every kitchen, and proper installation is essential to both aesthetic and functional qualities. The cabinets need to be square, level, and secure so doors and drawers operate properly and provide stable support for the countertops and fixtures. With the right tools and a little patience, installing kitchen cabinets is a project any do-it-yourselfer can handle. Join our host, Jeff Wilson, as he installs new base cabinets for a small kitchen. The first step in any successful kitchen project is to determine a layout. Kitchen cabinets are available in a wide variety of sizes, functions, and styles, and they can be designed and arranged to fit kitchens of any size and shape. Prefabricated modular cabinets are the most common, available in lengths based on 3” increments, with 24” the standard depth of base cabinets and 12” the standard depth of wall cabinets.

Kitchen Cabinet Options for Storage and Display See All Photos In general, base kitchen cabinets—those are the ones that sit directly on the floor—are around 35 inches tall and 24 inches deep. Their width varies based on what kitchen element or elements sit on or in them—so for example, a 36-inch base cabinet can accommodate a double-basin sink, whereas a 30-inch cabinet can accommodate a single-basin sink. Wall cabinets are generally between 12 and 24 inches high and 12 to 16 inches deep. The standard width for two-door wall cabinets is between 30 and 36 inches. Tall cabinets are their own species—they can range from 84 to 96 inches tall, in general, and 12 to 24 inches deep. Widths vary depending on the space available, with 12 inch, 24 inch and 36 inch tall kitchen cabinet widths commonly available. Many tall kitchen cabinets are used as pantries, since their floor-to-ceiling style allows for efficient storage of food and supplies. If your storage needs are significant, you may want to explore a larger size, since this will allow you to consider adding features such as pull-outs and storage doors." }, { "docid": "D1592136#0", "title": "http://www.cliqstudios.com/cabinet-door-types/\nCabinet Door Types", "text": "Cabinet Door Types When discussing cabinet door types, we are not referring to fashion, although door style and door overlay are important elements of style.

This creates a continuous look and minimizes the visible gaps between each cabinet door. The resulting smooth profile enhances a transitional or contemporary style.

Most food preparation in the kitchen is related to the stove, the sink and the refrigerator. Generally, a triangular layout of the three essentials is considered ideal — access is straightforward, and there is room for preparation or storage beside each area.

Bobcats are also known to eat rodents, birds, bats and even adult deer, which they usually consume during the winter months, as well as lambs, poultry and young pigs when a ranch is near. Population Approximately 725,000 to 1,020,000 bobcats remain in the wild. Range Bobcats were once found throughout most of North America from northern Mexico to southern Canada. In the early to mid 1900s, bobcat populations in many Midwestern and eastern states of the United States were decimated due to the increased value of its fur. However, international laws began to protect the world's spotted cats in the 1970s, and populations have rebounded since then.

Having recently started to pad around with it's relatively big paws, the kitten is showing great curiosity about its surroundings. Its mother is very protective and keeps a careful watch over her little one. In the wild, young stay with their mothers for about nine months before they go out on their own. Their rich, thick fur keep them warm in harsh winters and their large paws spread out to act as snowshoes. That fur causes them to be hunted for their pelts. Largely solitary animals inhabiting high-altitude forests in Europe, North America and Asia, small groups of Lynx have been known to travel and hunt together on the ground, in trees, or even by swimming to catch fish. These carnivores feed on a wide range of animals, hunting at night and steering clear of humans, so they are rarely seen.

Balinese Cat Breed History Balinese cats are regarded as the long haired version of the Siamese cat. They are considered to be a spontaneous mutation of the Siamese cat by some breed fanciers, but a stronger theory is that they are derived by past breeding's between the Siamese & Turkish Angoras. This explains why may of today's Siamese cats still produce Balinese kittens in their litters from time to time. Balinese kittens that are resultant of Siamese breeding's are explained as being the result of the 'long hair recessive gene' that is present in many of the Siamese lines today's. Further proof lies in the fact that DNA testing facilities like UC Davis (CA) can actually test a Siamese cats DNA to find out if that particular cat carries the 'long hair recessive gene'. Another strong fact that Balinese may share a common link to the Turkish Angoras is that Balinese are considered to be one of the top hypoallergenic breeds, but the Siamese cat is not." }, { "docid": "D448262#0", "title": "http://www.nationaltrappers.com/fisher.html\n.", "text": "Protecting Wild Things and Wild Places Copyright© -2012 National Trappers Association, Inc.

Their fur is coloured cream with brown markings that are outlined in black. These markings vary from stripes to irregular spots and rosettes. They have a pale coloured underside and they are slenderly built. They have a body length between 50 and 100 cms (20 - 39 inches), a tail length between 30 and 45 cms (12 - 18 inches) and they weigh between 11.5 and 16 Kgs (25 - 35 lbs). Ocelots spend much of the day sleeping in the low branches of trees and are most active at night. They are also good swimmers. Habitat Ocelots are found in swampy savannah, scrub and forested areas of South USA, Central and South America. They are solitary animals, except mothers with cubs and during the breeding season.

Most people do not have the time or desire to breed from their cat and do not wish to add to the number of unwanted cats and kittens already looking for homes. Neutering a cat – castration in the male (removal of the testes), and spaying the female (removal of the ovaries and uterus) – not only prevents unwanted pregnancies occurring, but also curbs unwanted behavioural patterns associated with sexual maturity and reduces the risk of certain diseases. Reasons for neutering female cats Population control. It is important to neuter a female cat before she can have kittens herself. This happens very quickly depending on breed, time of year born and individual development. The first season usually occurs around six months but can be earlier. Queens can have up to three litters in a year. Control of nuisance. Female cats will ‘call’ (come into season and be receptive to the male cat) regularly, about every three weeks during sexually active times of the year if they do not get pregnant." }, { "docid": "D1148503#0", "title": "http://messybeast.com/genetics-basics.htm\n.", "text": "\"There are many possible combinations because some genes are more recessive than others! * If C (full colour) is inherited, the cat will be solid colour and any other genes will be hidden. * If C is not inherited, the other combinations will show up as below:* If cs is inherited, the cat is colour point and any c or ca genes are hidden * If cb is inherited, the cat is sepia and any c or ca genes are hidden. * If neither cs nor cb are present, ca is inherited, the cat is blue-eyed albino (recessive white) and the c gene (if present) is hidden. * If none of cs, cb or ca are present, 2 c genes are inherited, the cat will be pink-eyed albino. There is one complication: cs and cb are co-dominant (dominant over other genes, but not dominant over each other). If a cat inherits one of each, the pattern is intermediate between colourpoint and sepia and is called mink. The Tonkinese breed was created by breeding Siamese and Burmese cats together. Inbreeding (breeding together closely related individuals) tends to bring out recessive genes because the animals carry similar combinations of genes and there is more likelihood of any hidden genes meeting up and, therefore, showing up.

In the case of feral cats, the kittens may have been taken from the mother for taming. Kittens should not be taken from the mother before 5 to 6 weeks of age if possible. ( For wild kittens you may want to take them away from the mother at 4 weeks to tame them. As they get older, taming gets progressively harder.) The longer the mother cat is able to feed the kittens the better since young kittens need mother's milk for best nutrition as well as important antibodies.

There was also a significant increase in levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and cholesterol (generally taken to reduce heart disease risk). This is interesting because of the high levels of sodium in sparkling water, which should increase blood pressure. Researchers believe this didn’t happen due to the fact that sparkling waters tend to be rich in bi-carbonate, which balances out the negative effects of sodium within the body. There are also negative effects to drinking carbonated water. As carbonated water is more difficult to digest, due to the bubbles, it can lead to dehydration and put strain on the kidneys. Carbonated water is also considered acidic and can cause problems with weak digestive systems, which are prone to ulcers. It can also lead to an absorption of calcium, which can make your bones weak.

And although constipation can be caused by medical conditions (hypothyroidism, inflammatory bowel disease ), medications (painkillers, antidepressants), and other factors that may be out of your control, for most of us, it's caused by what we're eating—or, rather, not eating, says Elizabeth Blaney, MD, gastroenterologist and clinical assistant professor of medicine at the University of Pittsburgh.

S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) tested 3,015 produce samples and found that almost two-thirds contained pesticide residues. The Environmental Working Group (EWG), a non-profit, non-partisan advocacy group for human health and the environment, calculated that USDA tests found a total 165 different pesticides on thousands of fruit and vegetables in the 2013 sampling. While these findings might increase your desire to always choose organic over conventionally grown produce, in fact, there are many traditionally grown fruits and vegetables that are fine to include in a pesticide-free diet. Of course, there are foods that you should always buy organic, like apples, peaches and nectarines — nearly 100 percent of these fruits have tested positive for at least one pesticide residue. The EWG has produced the Shopper's Guide to Pesticides in Produce, which includes the \"\"Dirty Dozen\"\" and \"\"Clean Fifteen\"\" lists to help you decide what to buy organic and what's okay to buy non-organic. Why do some types of produce have more pesticide than others? Richard Wiles, senior vice president of policy for the Environmental Working Group says, “If you eat something like a pineapple or sweet corn, they have a protection defense because of the outer layer of skin.

For one thing, seeds cannot possibly germinate in our stomachs (although we remember being very worried about that possibility as children!). If you’re in any doubt, read this light hearted article that explores the science behind why this simply cannot happen!In fact, seeds are popular snacks in some parts of the world, usually roasted and seasoned before eating. So toxicity is not a problem – but are there any concerns about appendicitis? Many of us are taught that swallowing fruit seeds can lead to appendicitis, but is this really true? Well, it’s a possibility, but it is actually believed to be quite unusual for the consumption of a seed to cause appendicitis. Other potential problems seeds can cause are an intestinal blockage/obstruction (although this would usually take more than a single seed), or an injury like an intestinal tear or perforation. These – though unlikely – may be caused if the seed has sharp edges. The symptoms may include vomiting, nausea, fever and severe abdominal pain and would require immediate medical treatment (see Gastrointestinal Perforation ).

Once loved by the Egyptians and still used in many dishes today (such as the infamous gumbo dish), this pod-producing, tropical vegetable dates back over 3500 years ago. But still today, many are enjoying both okra health benefits and the vegetable’s edible delight. Like the kiwi fruit (okra actually shares many kiwi fruit benefits ), okra is known for it’s high vitamin C, vitamin K, and folate content, (although not quite as high as kiwi). Further, okra is known for harnessing a superior fiber, which helps with digestion, stabilizes blood sugar, and helps to control the rate at which sugar is absorbed. But there is much more to okra. While the “amount of nutrition” from okra varies based on how it’s consumed (pods, grams, etc), some of the key substances in the vegetable remain the same. Here are some prominent vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients found in okra that deserve some spotlight. Each figure is based on 1 cup (100g) of okra.

Having being traveled to different cities within India, America and United Kingdom, I heard many people complaining of bloating stomach. This happens due to wrong combination of food we eat and our enzymes within our body are unable to digest them. However it is not possible to have a perfect flat stomach all the time. After we eat and drink any kind of food or liquid, it takes up space inside our intestines that leads to expansion. A ballooned belly does not mean that something is wrong with what we eat, but if our abdomen is too swollen to squeeze into your jeans, you may like to identify belly bloater in your diet. Read what Dietitian Gulneer Puri has to say: Best food to relieve bloating: Bananas - Food rich in potassium like bananas, avocados, kiwis, oranges - prevents water retention by regulating sodium levels in your body and can thus reduce salt induced bloating. Papaya - The enzyme contained in papaya (papain) helps break down proteins in your GI system, which makes digestion easier. This tropical fruit also has ant-inflammatory properties as well as fibers that helps support a strong digestive system.

His change of address could be read as the latest parable of Old Media cluelessness — allowing a journalism asset to escape who will come back to haunt them — or as another instance of a star journalist cashing in on name-brand success. But it’s more complicated than that. Mr. Klein is not running away from something, he is going toward something else. Vox is a digitally native business, a technology company that produces media, as opposed to a media company that uses technology. Everything at Vox, from the way it covers subjects, the journalists it hires and the content management systems on which it produces news, is optimized for the current age. “We are just at the beginning of how journalism should be done on the web,” Mr. Klein said. “ We really wanted to build something from the ground up that helps people understand the news better. We are not just trying to scale Wonkblog, we want to improve the technology of news, and Vox has a vision of how to solve some of that." }, { "docid": "D216745#0", "title": "http://blog.cnccookbook.com/2015/08/19/8-brands-to-consider-for-the-worlds-best-screwdriver/\n8 Brands to Consider for the Worldâs Best Screwdriver", "text": "\"8 Brands to Consider for the World’s Best Screwdriverby Bob Warfield \| Beginner, Blog, Manual, Products \| 29 comments As machinist’s, we use screwdrivers a lot, right? Many of us are also major tool junkies. So, when we get tired of the usual Craftsman or Snap On options, where do we go for a better screwdriver? I thought it was worth some research and came up with 9 brands. What makes a better screwdriver? Lots of things in common including: More comfortable ergonomic grip Easier to tell at a glance whether you have to right one Extra machine work so the tip is optimized for the job it has to do Overall quality of construction and materials Warranty Extra gizmos and gadgets Without further ado, here are some possibilities for you to consider: Klein Tools Electricians, in particular, seem to swear by Klein Cushion Grip screwdrivers. But so do a lot of others. Their 8 piece set is available on Amazon for $64.99 as I write this: Klein Tools 85078 Cushion-Grip Screwdriver Set, 8-Piece To my eye, this is one of the tamer grip designs of the bunch, but people do swear by them. One special Klein screwdriver I would like to lay hands on is this one: Klein 67100 2-in-1 Interchangeable Rapi-Driv Screwdriver The Rapi-Drive is a speed driver with interchangeable tip that looks like it’d be handy for rapidly installing or removing screws that don’t require a lot of torque–handy in the right situation. Felo Ergonic Screwdrivers Now we’re talking about a more ergonomic grip, and they will certainly stand out with their modern design: Felo – Felo 6 Pc Slotted / Phillips Ergonic Screwdriver Set – 62411And at $26.21, these lovely German-made screwdrivers surely won’t break the bank." }, { "docid": "D2830871#0", "title": "http://www.rightdiagnosis.com/k/kleine_levin_syndrome/intro.htm\nKleine-Levin Syndrome", "text": "\"Kleine-Levin Syndrome Intro Symptoms Causes Tests Prognosis Treatment Misdiagnosis Videos Doctors Must Reads in Health Protecting Your Skin During Winter Watch: My Personal Psoriasis Journey Are You Getting The Best Cancer Care?

Now with a robo, proprietary investment models and a marketplace for asset managers, the industry wonders what's next for the tech company. Ryan W. Neal \| Aug 09, 2017In the six years since it launched, Riskalyze has become much more than a technology vendor offering a digital approach to risk assessment. The Sacramento, Calif.-based company stepped into the robo advisor market in 2015 with Autopilot, a set of tools it built with CLS Investments to help advisors automate account opening processes. In 2016, Riskalyze worked with TD Ameritrade and Adhesion Wealth Advisor to launch a robo for unified managed accounts, introduced automated “Check-ins” for advisors and raised $20 million in funding. Now Riskalyze is offering its own investment models based around risk scoring, a partner store where advisors can access strategies and research from asset managers and a next-generation Autopilot that advisors can use to build portfolios, assign them to client accounts, automatically generate trades across multiple custodians and rebalance existing portfolios. Under chief executive officer Aaron Klein, Riskalyze formed partnerships and integrations with seemingly every wealthtech vendor and custodian technology platform one could name. Riskalyze now supports 20,000 advisors representing $380 billion assets, and Klein says the company has grown 74 times over the last three years. But if it's no longer just a risk-tolerance tool, then what exactly is it? Industry observer and co-founder of the XY Planning Network Michael Kitces wondered on Twitter if Riskalyze’s partner store is “the beginning of the end” for TAMPs." }, { "docid": "D2469517#0", "title": "http://www.nations-baseball.com/\n.", "text": "Team Search Tournament Search State Sites World Series Login Join Now Recent Scores and Upcoming Games8U - Metro Division SKSA Diamondbacks 0SKSA Phillies 004/12 6:15 PM Spring TX10U - Open Division Fury Baseball Dirt D... 0Cypress Cyclones 004/12 6:30 PM Spring TX10U - Open Division Fairfield Athletics 0Fairfield Express 004/12 6:30 PM Spring TX7U - Metro Division Final SKSA Royals 12SKSA Red Sox 104/09 6:15 PM Spring TX6U - Metro Division Final SKSA Giants 10SKSA Rangers 1504/09 6:15 PM Spring TX7U - Metro Division Final SKSA Astros 2SKSA Rays 1204/09 6:15 PM Spring TX6U - Metro Division Final SKSA NW Houston Pirates 16SKSA Indians 1604/09 6:15 PM Spring TX14U - Metro Division Final SKSA Astros 0SKSA Indians 004/09 6:30 PM Spring TX14U - Metro Division Final MBA Athletics 1MBA Astros 504/09 6:30 PM Spring TX8U - Metro Division Final SKSA Astros 16SKSA Phillies 1404/09 7:45 PM Spring TX18U - Open Division Final Lynx Baseball 3Houston Miracles 904/10 6:00 PM Spring TX12U - Metro Division Final SKSA Reds 2SKSA Phillies 804/10 6:00 PM Spring TX12U - Metro Division Final SKSA Rockies 9SKSA Rangers 1204/10 6:00 PM Spring TX10U - Metro Division Final SKSA Blue Jays 0SKSA Colt 45's 604/10 6:00 PM Spring TX8U - Metro Division Final SKSA Giants 2SKSA Blue Jays 1404/10 6:15 PM Spring TX5U - Metro Division Final SKSA Marlins 15SKSA Phillies 2104/10 6:15 PM Spring TX6U - Metro Division Final SKSA Astros 13SKSA Rockies 1504/10 6:15 PM Spring TX8U - Metro Division Final SKSA Diamondbacks 15SKSA Dodgers 804/10 6:15 PM Spring TX10U - Open Division Final Cypress Cyclones 16Fairfield Athletics 604/10 6:30 PM Spring TX10U - Open Division Final Fairfield Express 15Texas Smash 9U Red 004/10 6:30 PM Spring TX10U - Open Division Final The Nationals 17Fury Baseball Dirt D... 504/10 6:30 PM Spring TX6U - Metro Division Final SKSA Rays 14SKSA Cubs 1504/10 7:45 PM Spring TX18U - Open Division Final Houston Miracles 14SKSA Storm 204/10 8:15 PM Spring TX6U - Metro Division SKSA Indians 0SKSA Rangers 004/11 7:45 PM Spring TX6U - Metro Division SKSA Royals 0SKSA Angels 004/11 7:45 PM Spring TX8U - Metro Division SKSA Pirates 0SKSA Blue Jays 004/11 7:45 PM Spring TX9U - Metro Division SKSA D'Backs 0SKSA A's 004/11 8:00 PM Spring TX10U - Metro Division SKSA Giants 0SKSA Colt 45's 004/11 8:00 PM Spring TX12U - Metro Division SKSA D'Backs 0SKSA Mets 004/11 8:00 PM Spring TX9U - Metro Division SKSA Orioles 0SKSA Angels 004/11 8:00 PM Spring TX10U - Metro Division SKSA Blue Jays 0SKSA Phillies 004/11 8:00 PM Spring TX12U - Metro Division SKSA Tigers 0SKSA Rays 004/11 8:00 PM Spring TX12U - Metro Division SKSA Astros 0SKSA Rockies 004/12 6:00 PM Spring TX18U - Open Division SKSA Hooks 0Fury Baseball CAT5 004/12 6:00 PM Spring TX12U - Metro Division SKSA A's 0SKSA Rays 004/12 6:00 PM Spring TX10U - Metro Division SKSA Rangers 0SKSA Astros 004/12 6:00 PM Spring TX5U - Metro Division SKSA Rangers 0SKSA Giants 004/12 6:15 PM Spring TX5U - Metro Division SKSA Astros 0SKSA Twins 004/12 6:15 PM Spring TX7U - Metro Division SKSA Giants 0SKSA Nationals 004/12 6:15 PM Spring TX8U - Metro Division SKSA Giants 0SKSA Dodgers 004/12 6:15 PM Spring TX8U - Metro Division SKSA Diamondbacks 0SKSA Phillies 004/12 6:15 PM Spring TX10U - Open Division Fury Baseball Dirt D... 0Cypress Cyclones 004/12 6:30 PM Spring TX10U - Open Division Fairfield Athletics 0Fairfield Express 004/12 6:30 PM Spring TX7U - Metro Division Final SKSA Royals 12SKSA Red Sox 104/09 6:15 PM Spring TX6U - Metro Division Final SKSA Giants 10SKSA Rangers 1504/09 6:15 PM Spring TX7U - Metro Division Final SKSA Astros 2SKSA Rays 1204/09 6:15 PM Spring TXHOMEParent Teams Directors Tournament Help Nations Baseball We are baseball people.

Koalas live in Eucalypt forests, spending the vast majority of their lives in just a handful of eucalyptus trees, also known as gum trees. These animals are nocturnal and spend four to six hours a night quietly munching on Eucalyptus leaves. In the course of a single evening, a 30 pound koala consumes about 2 pounds of leaves. The nutritional value of this diet is so poor that the koala is designed to conserve as much energy as possible. A healthy adult koala spends about 18 hours a day sleeping - mostly in the heat of the afternoon - and no more than 5 minutes a day in full-bodied exertion. Moving from one to another of the trees that it has designated as its territory is the most energy a koala will commit in any 24 hour period. Very much like the South American sloths in lifestyle, the koala bear has an extremely slow metabolism and takes days to digest a meal. The koala bear has a broad face with forward facing eyes, a large head with round tufted ears and an egg-shaped tailless body covered with plush grey to brown fur that is whiter on the undersides and often mottled over the rump. They are not social at all, marking out clear territories, and actively avoiding each other throughout most of their lives, other than for very brief mating encounters." }, { "docid": "D1569052#0", "title": "http://www.koalaexpress.com.au/facts1.htm\nKoalas aren't bears many people are led to believe.

Its closest relative is the wombat. Koalas are marsupials, a subclass of the mammal group. Marsupials give birth to immature, or not fully developed, young, who then make their way to the mother's teat which is usually located in a pouch or pouch like appendage on the mother's abdomen. The reason why koalas and wombats are related is that they are both marsupials of the order Diprotodontia. The koala's family, Phascolarctidae, is closest to the wombat family, Vombatidae because they are both of the sub-order Vombatiformes .6 people found this useful Was this answer useful?

The word 'marsupial' comes from the Latin word marsupium, meaning 'pouch’. Most, but not all, female marsupials have a permanent pouch in which to raise their young. When Europeans first came to Australia they thought that Koalas were bears, so they were often called ‘Koala bears’. Not much was known about marsupials at the time of settlement and it's possible that no European had seen a marsupial prior to that. Some early settlers also referred to Koalas as ‘monkeys’ and some people still call one of the favoured Koala food trees in the south of Australia ‘Monkey Gums’. However, in an effort to educate people that Koalas are marsupials, we discourage people from using these incorrect names, especially ‘Koala bear’, which is in fairly common usage. The correct term is simply 'Koala'. Adaptations for a life in the trees The Koala is well suited to its life in the trees.

Most of these groups, and the organisms grouped in them, have scientific names in Latin or Greek. The names may have meanings which relate to certain features shared by the organisms in that group, or they sometimes reflect the names of people, such as early naturalists and explorers. The organisms in each group all share some features in common with the other organisms in that group. For instance, if we see that an animal is classified in the sub-class Marsupialia, we would know that it is a marsupial, and therefore a mammal which gives birth to very tiny young which attach to one of the mother’s teats and develop generally in the safety of a pouch. All living things are divided into seven main groups, called Kingdoms. Each of the seven Kingdoms is then divided into several smaller groups called Phyla (the plural of Phylum) then those groups are divided into even smaller ones again, and so on, each with less species. This means that as you get further down the chain of groups, there are more groups but less organisms in each group. All the animal species on earth are classified in the Kingdom Animalia.

After all, these terms sound somewhat scientific, and vague memories of junior high science class and litmus paper changing color may come to mind. However, the balance between acidity and alkalinity, and its importance, can be explained quite simply and should be explained. This balance is essential to good health. The Basics Every solution is either acidic or alkaline. ( Alkaline is often called \"\"base.\"\") These solutions can be anything from body fluids, such as stomach acid and blood, to beverages, such as wine or coffee, to sea water. Acidity and alkalinity are measured in p H (potential of hydrogen). The p H scale goes from 0 to 14, with 0 the most acidic, and 14 the most alkaline." }, { "docid": "D1372113#0", "title": "http://anti-aging-today.org/nutrition/alkaline-acid-foods.htm\nAlkaline and Acid Forming Foods", "text": "\"Alkaline and Acid Forming Foods Clinical Nutrition for the Balanced Body Balancing the p H is a major step toward well-being and greater health. Human blood p H should be slightly alkaline ( 7.35 - 7.45 ). A p H of 7.0 is neutral. A p H below 7.0 is acidic. A p H above 7.0 is alkaline. An acidic p H can occur from, an acid forming diet, emotional stress, toxic overload, and/or immune reactions or any process that deprives the cells of oxygen and other nutrients. The body will try to compensate for acidic p H by using alkaline minerals. If the diet does not contain enough minerals to compensate, a build up of acids in the cells will occur. An acidic balance will: decrease the body's ability to absorb minerals and other nutrients, decrease the energy production in the cells, decrease it's ability to repair damaged cells, decrease it's ability to detoxify heavy metals, make tumor cells thrive, and make it more susceptible to fatigue and illness. The reason acidosis is more common in our society is mostly due to the typical American diet, which is far too high in acid producing animal products like meat, eggs and dairy, and far too low in alkaline producing foods like fresh vegetables." }, { "docid": "D606254#0", "title": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_culinary_vegetables\nList of vegetables", "text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from List of culinary vegetables)navigation search This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness.

Flowers and Plants Companion Planting for vegetables , herbs and flowers is the idea that some plants have a beneficial effect on others growing nearby and other plants have a detrimental influence. This is an ancient idea that was seen during the times of the Romans, and perhaps even before then. One only has to look at the old-age tradition of North American agriculture of planting corn , beans and squash together. Corn grows tall, trying to steal as much sun as possible and taking out a lot of nitrogen from the soil. Beans grow up the stalks of the corn looking for the sun too, but putting nitrogen back into the soil. Planting squash at the same time does well on the conditions and grows and spreads on the ground growing and harvested long after the harvest of the beans and the corn. Therefore, by inter-cropping, or companion planting, you have been able to grow 3 different vegetables in the same space as you would one. Companion Planting for Deterring Insects Although many will disregard companion planting and see it as old wives' tales, many plants, flowers and herbs do defend themselves against insects by being poisonous to them or developing a strong scent that frightens them away, and it is possible that a plant growing close by might benefit from being in this bug-free zone. So, although companion planting is also mixed up in folklore, there is also an element of fact and this method can be happily adopted by those who practice organic gardening. For example, French marigolds (Tagetes patula) secrete an enzyme or a hormone into the soil that deters nematodes from infesting their roots, and it does seem that tomatoes or other nematode susceptible plants growing as neighbors will be protected." }, { "docid": "D2007295#0", "title": "https://www.reference.com/food/cook-raw-beets-garden-3495adb61906187e\nHow Do You Cook Raw Beets From the Garden?", "text": "Food Cooking Vegetables Q: How Do You Cook Raw Beets From the Garden?

After all, these terms sound somewhat scientific, and vague memories of junior high science class and litmus paper changing color may come to mind. However, the balance between acidity and alkalinity, and its importance, can be explained quite simply and should be explained. This balance is essential to good health. The Basics Every solution is either acidic or alkaline. ( Alkaline is often called \"\"base.\"\") These solutions can be anything from body fluids, such as stomach acid and blood, to beverages, such as wine or coffee, to sea water. Acidity and alkalinity are measured in p H (potential of hydrogen).

Whether you're an avid gardener or a homeowner just trying to keep your yard tidy, your work will be more efficient and effective if you plan your activities and understand the gardening seasons in our area. To jump start your planning, here's a schedule of important gardening activities by the month. January: Vegetables to plant in January include beets, broccoli, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower, celery, Chinese cabbage, collards, garden peas, Irish potatoes, kale, kohlrabi, leeks, lettuce, mustard, radishes, rutabagas, spinach, Swiss chard and turnips. Plant seeds of tomatoes, peppers and eggplants in small pots in greenhouses or under lights indoors. Keep the old, spent flowers of cool-season bedding plants picked off to encourage continued blooming and fertilize if needed. Repeat-flowering roses generally are pruned twice a year -- in late January to early February and again in late August to early September. Hold off pruning cold-damaged woody tropicals, such as hibiscus and angel trumpet, until spring. At that time, look for new growth and then cut the plant back appropriately. February: Early this month, plant cool-season vegetables, such as beets, broccoli, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower, Swiss chard, collards, lettuce, mustard, potatoes, radishes, spinach, snow peas and turnips." }, { "docid": "D3218826#0", "title": "http://www.audioenglish.org/dictionary/cruciferous_vegetable.htm\nCRUCIFEROUS VEGETABLE", "text": "\"Audio English.org » Dictionary » C » Cruciferous ...

Ideally gardeners should start preparing for fall right around the summer solstice, if not before if you live in an area with a short growing season. In most areas planting should take place from July through August to allow for plenty of time for seeds and plants to grow and mature before the first autumn freeze. The average date of the first killing frost in your area is the most important thing to know when it comes to fall vegetable gardening. Your local garden center is a good source of information for this date. To determine when to start planting, find out the number of days to maturity for the vegetable. Next, count back the number of days from the first average frost date. Some people add a week or so to allow for a few extra days to harvest the produce once it’s mature. You will find maturity information on seed packets and some plant labels. Most everything you plant in spring you can grow in your fall garden, too." }, { "docid": "D3057895#0", "title": "https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/kohlrabi\nkohlrabi", "text": "kohlrabinavigation search See also: Kohlrabi Contents [ hide ]1 English1.1 Alternative forms1.2 Etymology1.3 Pronunciation1.4 Noun1.4.1 Translations2 Norman2.1 Etymology2.2 Noun English [ edit]Wikipedia has an article on: kohlrabi Kohlrabi Alternative forms [ edit]kohl rabi Etymology [ edit]Borrowed from German Kohlrabi, from Kohl ( “ cabbage ”) + Italian rape ( “ turnips ”), from cavoli rape, the plural of cavolo rapa ( “ cole rape ”).

Also, kohlrabi is not really a root vegetable -- but more on that below. My indoctrination to kohlrabi consumption began gradually, starting with kohlrabi pancakes -- what vegetable doesn't taste good mixed with a little flour and eggs and fried up in olive oil and butter? -- but now includes kohlrabi slaw, roasted kohlrabi and even raw, thinly shaved kohlrabi.

All of these familiar garden crops can trace their history to a common ancestry of wild cabbage originating in the Mediterranean and Asia Minor area. The close kinship of these crops enable diversified usage of plant parts.

Creating a companion vegetable garden will allow you to take advantage of these useful and beneficial relationships. Companion Planting Reasons Vegetable companion planting makes sense for a few reasons: First, many companion plants are already things you would grow in your garden. By moving these plants around, you can get the best performance from them. Second, many companion vegetable plants help to deter pests, which helps to decrease the amount of pesticides and effort it takes to keep your garden pest free. Third, vegetable companion planting frequently also increases the yields of the plants. This means you get more food from the same space.

With the disintegration of the Ottoman Empire from early 1800s, when the Christian nations in the Balkans began to free themselves from Turkish rule (Greece, 1829; Montenegro, 1851; Romania, 1856; Serbia, 1878; Bulgaria, 1878), the so-called Orient Question was born. It was referring to the Turkish Empire's disintegration and the rivalry in which the Great Powers struggled for the control of the important Bosporus and Dardanelles, the strait that controls the fairway to and from the entire Black Sea region. The Armenian Question was part of the Orient Question since the Armenians demanded fair treatment in face of the corrupt Ottoman misrule that prevailed in the empire. The Armenians demanded, among other things, guarantees for their lives and property from attacks by Kurdish tribes. These tribes supported themselves by forced and illegal taxes they exacted from the Armenian population in the empire.

But the toppling of Saddam's regime has altered the power balance between those groups, who are waging an increasingly bitter power struggle. Shiites and Sunnis: Origins of Differences The divide between Sunni and Shiite Arabs is currently Iraq's most volatile. The distinction between the Sunni and Shiite branches of Islam dates back to a 7th Century split over who would inherit the leadership of Muslims after the passing of the Prophet Muhammad. The Shiites believe that the Prophet had passed the mantle of leadership to his own descendants, first to his cousin and son-in-law, Imam Ali, who in turn passed it to his own son (and the Prophet's beloved grandson) Imam Hussein. They rejected the three Caliphs chosen by consultation among the Prophet's followers after his death — those recognized by the Sunnis, who constitute about three quarters of the world's Muslims today — and instead followed a series of 12 imams who were direct descendants of Muhammad. The schism originated as a violent power struggle, with both Ali and Hussein murdered by rivals. The latter, killed at the battle of Karbala in Iraq, came to symbolize the cult of martyrdom in the Shiite tradition, with followers still today flagellating themselves during the annual Ashura festival for their failure to rally to Hussein and prevent his death.

The feminine form of both the adjective and the given name is Aziza. Aziz in Arabic is derived from the root ʕ-z-z with a meaning of \"\"strong, powerful\"\" and the adjective has acquired its meaning of \"\"dear, darling, precious\"\".

Al-Aziz is one of the names of God in Islam, and the word is also used as a royal title borne by the high nobles of Egypt, being a title borne by the prophet Joseph in the Quranic Surah-e-Yusuf, and also by the Biblical Potiphar, referred to in the Quran as Aziz.

The Kurds are one of the indigenous peoples of the Mesopotamian plains and the highlands in what are now south-eastern Turkey, north-eastern Syria, northern Iraq, north-western Iran and south-western Armenia.

Nevertheless, social scientists remain frustrated in their attempts to explain ethnic conflict in any generalizable pattern.

Regarding the Turkish-Kurdish conflict, a plethora of theories exist to try and explain it, including Social Identity Theory (and under it, Stereotyping and Prejudice Theory), Basic Human Needs Theory (and under it, Relative Deprivation Theory), Realistic Conflict Theory and Psychodynamic and Psychocultural Theories. Numerous articles have considered the “Kurdish Question” from these theoretical perspectives, yet very few have attempted to draw a connection between theory and the active practice of peacebuilding, bringing to attention the problematic gap between understanding and action. A Brief History of the Kurdish Conflict Generally agreed by scholars of all fields is that the “Kurdish question is the main source of political instability in Turkey today” (Ozcelik, 2006, pg. 1). As of 2009, the death toll in Turkey, related to the conflict, had reached 30,000 and the cost estimate was $6-8 billion per year (James and Ozdamar, pg. 25).

His father, Najm ad-Din Ayyub, was governor of Baalbek. In Damascus, Saladin lived for ten years at the court of Nur ad-Din (Nureddin). After an initial military education under the command of his uncle, Nur ad-Din's lieutenant Shirkuh, who was representing Nur ad-Din on campaigns against a faction of the Fatimid caliphate of Egypt in the 1160s, Saladin eventually succeeded the defeated faction and his uncle as vizier in 1169. There, he inherited a difficult role defending Egypt against the incursions of the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem, under Amalric I. His position was tenuous at first; no one expected him to last long in Egypt where there had been many changes of government in previous years due to a long line of child caliphs fought over by competing viziers. As the leader of a foreign army from Syria, he also had no control over the Shi'ite Egyptian army, which was led in the name of the now otherwise powerless caliph Al-Adid." }, { "docid": "D1716961#0", "title": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirkuk\nKirkuk", "text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search For other uses, see Kirkuk (disambiguation).

Historic Ethnicities of Kurdistan The contiguous Kurdish regions of Iran, Iraq, Turkey , and Syria sit in the north central area of the Middle East. Over the millennia, numerous ethnicities have migrated, settled or natively inhabited the area including Turks, Persians, Arabs, Kurds, Armenians, Assyrians, Chechens, Azeris and others. From the beginning of recorded history until the present day, all of these ethnic groups have strived politically and violently both offensively and defensively for a secure homeland. As one of the crossroads of the Middle East, Kurdistan has been home to both ethnic battlegrounds, as well as peaceful ethnic coexistence. Conquerors in the Kurdish Region The Kurdish region has seen a long list of invaders and conquerors: Ancient Persians from the east, Alexander the Great from the west, Muslim Arabs in the 7th Century from the south, Seljuk Turks in the 11th Century from the east, the Mongols in the 13th Century from the east, medieval Persians from the east and the Ottoman Turks from the north in the 16th Century and most recently, the United States in its 2003 invasion of Iraq. “No Friends But The Mountains”Fortunately for the Kurds, they have been able to retreat into the mountains for sanctuary. This protection is what saved the Kurds from destruction and allowed them to survive as a distinct ethnic group. Their traditional nomadic lifestyle and the inhospitable mountain homeland provide a natural means to evade marauding armies that would subject indigenous people to rape, murder and genocide.

The Turkish Lira banknotes and coins were withdrawn from circulation by January 1, 2006. In the first phase of the currency reform, planned to be in two phases, the prefix �New� was added to the currency�s name as practiced in many countries. It was also decided that in the second phase this prefix would be removed and our traditional currency name, �Turkish Lira� will be reverted back. Accordingly, the Council of Ministers was authorized to remove the prefix ��New� from the �New Turkish Lira� and from the �New Kurus�. The Council determined that this change would take effect on January 1, 20 09, as published in the Official Gazette on May 5, 2007. Depending upon the authorization given by Laws No. 1211 and 1264, both the Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey and the Under secretariat of Treasury regulated the co-circulation of the New Turkish Lira banknotes and coins with the Turkish Lira banknotes and coins until the end of the year 2009 and the removal of the New Turkish Lira banknotes and coins from the circulation at the end of 2009.

Additionally, the radical theory that the infectious agent is a normalprotein that has been changed in its form also has sparked much interest. First described in the early twentieth century independently by Creutzfeldt and Jakob, CJD is a neurodegenerative disease causing a rapidly progressing dementia ending in death, usually withineight months of symptom onset.

The molecular structure of prions and how they cause infections like Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease Prion protein expressed in E. coli. Credit: NIAID Flickr (CC BY 2.0)Susan Lindquist is a researcher at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, located in the department of molecular genetics and cell biology at the University of Chicago. She responds:\"\"'Prion' is a term first used to describe the mysterious infectious agent responsible for several neurodegenerative diseases found in mammals, including Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) in humans. The word itself derives from 'proteinaceous infectious particle'; it refers to the initially heretical hypothesis that the infectious agent causing those diseases consists only of protein, with no nucleic acid genome. ( All previously known pathogens, such as bacteria and viruses, contain nucleic acids, which enable them to reproduce.) The prion hypothesis explained why the mysterious infectious agent is resistant to ultraviolet radiation, which breaks down nucleic acids, but is susceptible to substances that disrupt proteins. \"\" A major breakthrough occurred when researchers discovered that the infectious agent consists primarily of a protein found in the membranes of normal cells, but in this case the protein has an altered shape, or conformation. Some scientists hypothesized that the distorted protein could bind to other proteins of the same type and induce them to change their conformation as well, producing a chain reaction that propagates the disease and generates new infectious material. Since then, the gene for this protein has been successfully cloned, and studies using transgenic mice have bolstered the prion hypothesis." }, { "docid": "D1865890#0", "title": "http://memory.ucsf.edu/cjd/overview/prions\nPrion Diseases", "text": "Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available.

There are three different subtypes of prion disease categorized by how the disease is contracted. All differ slightly with regards to typical signs, symptoms and duration of illness. The subtypes are sporadic, genetic and acquired. Sporadic Prion Diseases Sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (s CJD) The cause of “classic” or “sporadic” CJD is unknown, which means it occurs in people without any known risk factors or gene mutations. Typical symptoms include imbalance and incoordination, memory loss and impaired thinking, and psychiatric symptoms such as anxiety or depression.

The areas around modern Haryana, Delhi and some other western parts of the Northern India (the region of Doab, till Prayag/Kaushambi in Uttar Pradesh) formed the main location of this clan. The Kuru clan is segregated into two parts on the basis of the ancient texts, according to which, between the Rigvedic River Saraswati and river Ganges lays the territory of the Kurus.

The Wolverine R-Spec is the best UTV Yamaha has ever produced and the good news is, we don't think they're finished releasing new models yet! CLICK HERE to see the 2016 Yamaha Wolverine in action. Powering the Wolverine is an all-new single cylinder, liquid-cooled, 708cc four-stroke that incorporates a version of the stout Ultramatic transmission Yamaha has utilized for years. The top end is an all new design that helps give the Wolverine a bit of a kick in the pants feel. The engine still has that undeniably \"\"Yamaha\"\" feel to it, with power that is smooth and torquey rather than aggressive and violent. When you step on the gas, you're likely to not shoot the contents of the bed onto the ground. The Ultramatic CVT transmission uses a centrifugal clutch to help grip the belt tight and minimize slippage. This limits wear while also helping to provide smooth clutch engagement and disengagement.

Has your Subaru ever been diagnosed with bad struts? How many of you have ever been in one of those chain tire stores getting a set of tires only to be told that you need new struts and that your worn out struts will wear out your new tires prematurely? It’s a question I hear from my customers all the time…”Mike, I just got my new tires you recommended but the tire store says my struts are bad also… how come you guys didn’t notice that?”Since we started back in 1999 I’ve probably heard that same question over 100 times. Out of those 100 questions, upon checking out the vehicle very few ever really needed strut replacement. The reality is that Subaru struts just happen to last a really long time under normal use. Sure… after 100,000 miles they may only work 85-90% as good as they once did but rarely are they ever “bad” at that point. Replacing your struts can be more of a decision based on your own preferences of how you want the car to ride vs. a decesion based on a mechanical failure. If you’re unsure whether or not you need struts here are a couple of guidelines.

Struts provide outwards-facing support in their lengthwise direction, which can be used to keep two other components separate, performing the opposite function of a tie.

An automotive suspension strut combines the primary function of a shock absorber (as a damper ), with the ability to support sideways loads not along its axis of compression, somewhat similar to a sliding pillar suspension, thus eliminating the need for an upper suspension arm. This means that a strut must have a more rugged design, with mounting points near its middle for attachment of such loads." }, { "docid": "D378616#0", "title": "http://www.shockwarehouse.com/\n.", "text": "CARS TRUCKS MOTORHOMESTOP BRANDSAbout Shockwarehouse Shockwarehouse, America's Number 1 Shock and Strut Superstore, sells shock absorbers, struts and air suspension components for all types of cars, trucks, RVs and motorhomes, including specialized parts for lifted trucks, sports applications and transit/commercial vehicles.

Replacement rebate found!So...it looks like I'm forced to replace my front struts but will probably do the rears as well. To make a long vibrations troubleshooting session short, I helped a friend of mine swap out his front struts on his 2004 Mazda 3 this weekend. His passenger strut was completely dead due to oil leakage and his drivers side was very weak. While driving around to get parts, I noticed his vehicle had vibrations similar to my MO's. But after we got the new front struts in, the vibrations went away. That sparked me to check the front OEM struts on my MO, and sure enough, the front left was very dirty from leaking oil. I check the right one and it still seemed okay but the boot was very dry rotted. Regardless of the right strut's condition, I'll have to swap them both out.

Yet they are the most overlooked maintenance item in car repair today. Why? Because they’re expensive to replace and most drivers aren’t aware of their importance in safety and steering control. Plus, since they’re usually not listed on the maintenance schedule, owners usually don’t know when to replace shocks and struts. What do shocks do?

This guide aims to help you understand what each shock does best to find the ideal fit for your car or truck. The most important consideration for finding the best shocks is what YOU use your vehicle for. If your truck sees more starlight than stoplights, you need a stronger shock than the soft squishy factory dampers. At the same time, if you spend all day in your SUV you don't want your teeth jarred out on every manhole cover. The best shocks for getting your pickup to the camp site through mud and over rocks will be stiffer and able to resist overheating. The most comfortable shock for getting your mom to church and the quilting circle will be soft and forgiving, but if your mom tends to run late to the quilting circle and likes to make up time on the road, we're back to looking at performance shocks. High Performance High performance shocks and struts (in this guide we'll use the terms interchangeably, click here to learn more about the difference between shocks and struts) are designed to give your car or truck the best handling possible.

Recall that animals that possess bilateral symmetry can be divided into two groups—protostomes and deuterostomes—based on their patterns of embryonic development. The deuterostomes, whose name translates as “second mouth,” consist of two phyla: Chordata and Echinodermata. Echinoderms are invertebrate marine animals that have pentaradial symmetry and a spiny body covering, a group that includes sea stars, sea urchins, and sea cucumbers. The most conspicuous and familiar members of Chordata are vertebrates, but this phylum also includes two groups of invertebrate chordates. All chordates are deuterostomes possessing a notochord. Characteristics of Chordata Animals in the phylum Chordata share four key features that appear at some stage during their development: a notochord, a dorsal hollow nerve cord, pharyngeal slits, and a post-anal tail ( [link] ). In some groups, some of these are present only during embryonic development. The chordates are named for the notochord, which is a flexible, rod-shaped structure that is found in the embryonic stage of all chordates and in the adult stage of some chordate species.

The pineal gland is located in the epithalamus, near the center of the brain, between the two hemispheres, tucked in a groove where the two halves of the thalamus join.

Leeches, for example, lack this longitudinal support rod and extend and retract their bodies rather than swim by laterally moving their backs. Although the notochord no longer serves this support function in most modern vertebrates (because it has been replaced by a vertebral column), the notochord is still present in all vertebrate embryos where it promotes the formation of other structures (like the central nervous system). � In adult humans, the remnants of the notochord form the central region (nucleus pulposus) of the intervertebral disks between our vertebrae. The notochord of the primitive chordate, the lancelet ( Amphioxus) is depicted in the following images. The notochord of a jawless fish (a lamprey) is visible below.

They are the only known living animals that have a skull but no vertebral column, although hagfish do have rudimentary vertebrae. [ 3] Along with lampreys, hagfish are jawless; they are the sister group to vertebrates, and living hagfish remain similar to hagfish from around 300 million years ago. [ 4]The classification of hagfish had been controversial. The issue was whether the hagfish was a degenerate type of vertebrate-fish that through evolution had lost its vertebrae (the original scheme) and was most closely related to lampreys, or whether hagfish represent a stage that precedes the evolution of the vertebral column (the alternative scheme) as is the case with lancelets. Recent DNA evidence has supported the original scheme.

Photo © Brad Thompson / Shutterstock.by Laura Klappenbach Updated March 08, 2017Vertebrates (Vertebrata) are a group of chordates that includes birds, mammals, fishes, lampreys, amphibians, and reptiles. Vertebrates have a vertebral column in which the notochord is replaced by multiple vertebrae that form a backbone. The vertebrae surround and protect a nerve cord and provide the animal with structural support. Vertebrates have a well-developed head, a distinct brain that is protected by a skull, and paired sense organs. They also have a highly efficient respiratory system, a muscular pharynx with slits and gills (in terrestrial vertebrates the slits and gills are greatly modified), a muscularized gut, and a chambered heart. Another notable character of vertebrates is their endoskeleton. An endoskeleton is an internal assemblage of notochord, bone or cartilage that provides the animal with structural support. The endoskeleton grows as the animal grows and provides a sturdy framework to which the animal's muscles are attached.

What is a fish? To ask ‘what is a fish’ is not an easily answered question as the fish group is such a diverse one. Most fish are scaled, aquatic vertebrates which means they have a skeleton which includes a cranium or skull and a functional backbone. Some species of fish are not vertebrates such as the primitive-looking Hagfish which have a simple cartilaginous skull and a row of springy connective tissues instead of a backbone. All fish live and survive in water whether it be sea water or freshwater. However, there are a few exceptions such as the Common Eels and Mudskippers who are able to move about on land. Some species of fish such as the Flying Fish, take to the air and are able to glide over 200 metres, skimming the waves like fast flying sea birds. There are other species of fish that remain encased in mud for many months or even years such as the Lungfish. Fish are most often referred to as cold-blooded creatures, however, most fish are ‘poikilothermic’ which means they are able to maintain a steady body temperature in their changing environmental water temperature." }, { "docid": "D2993389#0", "title": "http://biologyjunction.com/vertebrate_notes.htm\nvertebrate notes", "text": "\"vertebrate notes Vertebrate Chordates Animals with a Backbone All Materials © Cmassengale The vertebrates comprise a large group of chordates, and are subdivided into seven classes (3 classes of fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals). Vertebrates have an internal skeleton of cartilage or bone, with vertebrae surrounding the dorsal nerve cord. Subphylum Vertebrata The subphylum Vertebrata consists of about 43,700 species of animals with backbones. Vertebrates exhibit all three of the chordate characteristics at some point during their lives. The embryonic notochord is replaced by a vertebral column in the adult. The vertebral column is made of individual hard segments (vertebrae) surrounding the dorsal hollow nerve cord. The nerve cord is the one chordate feature present in the adult phase of all vertebrates. The vertebral column, part of a flexible but strong endoskeleton, is evidence that vertebrates are segmented. The vertebrate skeleton is living tissue (either cartilage or bone) that grows as the animal grows.

The Osteichthys, or bony fish, include both ray-finned and lobe-finned fish, accounting for over 30,000 species in all, ranging from familiar food fish like salmon and tuna to more exotic lungfish and electric eels. The Chondrichthyes, or cartilaginous fish, include sharks, rays and skates, and the Agnatha, or jawless fish, include hagfish and lampreys. ( A fourth class, Placodermes, or armored fish, has long since gone extinct, and most experts lump Acanthodes, or spiny sharks, under the Osteichthys umbrella. ) 02of 10All Fish Are Equipped With Gills Getty Images Like all animals, fish need oxygen in order to fuel their metabolism: the difference is that terrestrial vertebrates breathe air, while fish rely on oxygen dissolved in water. To this end, fish have evolved gills, complex, efficient, multi-layered organs that absorb oxygen from the water and excrete carbon dioxide. Gills only work when oxygenated water is constantly streaming through them, which is why fish and sharks are always moving—and why they expire so quickly when they're plucked from the water by human fishermen. ( Some fish, like lungfish and catfish, possess rudimentary lungs in addition to their gills, and can breathe air when circumstances demand. ) 03of 10Fish Were the World's First Vertebrate Animals Pikaia, a Cambrian fish.

Lampreys belong to the family Petromyzonidae. They live in coastal and fresh waters and are found in temperate regions around the world, except Africa. The eel-like, scaleless animals range from about 15 to 100 centimetres (6 to 40 inches) long. They have well-developed eyes, one or two dorsal fins, a tail fin, a single nostril on top of the head, and seven gill openings on each side of the body. Like the hagfishes, they lack bones, jaws, and paired fins.

The agnathans lack jaws and paired fins. Instead of jaws, they have a cyclostomic (circular) toothed mouth with which they bore into the side of a fish and suck the blood of their victim. Agnathans lack an internal skeleton made of ture bone. As with sharks (another ancient group), the internal skeleton consists primarily of cartilage. Hagfish do not have a skeleton, except they do have a skull, which is made of cartilage. Because of this, many researchers think hagfish should not be in the subphylum Vertebrata. However, because of its fins and gills, they are called fish. The original 19th century classification groups hagfish and lampreys together as Agnatha. An alternative scheme proposed that jawed vertebrates are more closely related to lampreys than to hagfish, so vertebrates include lampreys but exclude hagfish." }, { "docid": "D269153#0", "title": "http://bio.sunyorange.edu/updated2/comparative_anatomy/anat.html1/C_BLOOD.htm\nBLOOD", "text": "COMPARATIVE ANATOMY HOME COMPARATIVE ANATOMY TABLE OF CONTENTS OBL HOME OBL REFERENCESBLOODBLOODBy the time a human embryo is a few mm in length, cells need more oxygen and glucose than simple diffusion can provide and cells produce wastes faster than diffusion can remove them. As a result, a system to perform transport of both is needed, especially since the differentiated cells of the body can't move towards food on their own or move away from their wastes. The specialized cells of the human body are also less able to protect themselves from temperature changes, p H changes, and toxic chemicals and thus the cardiovascular system must help control the composition of the fluid which bathes the cells. By the end of the 3rd week the human heart beats while other organ systems have barely begun their development. Human blood is composed of three types of specialized cells suspended in plasma. The plasma is mostly water but also contains a number of proteins which function in osmotic regulation, immune reactions, transport, and blood clotting. Red blood cells (erythrocytes) are enucleated cells which are packed with the oxygen- and carbon dioxide-binding protein hemoglobin. Diverse classes of white blood cells (leukocytes) protect the body from microorganisms, viruses, and cancer cells using a variety of immune mechanisms.

This is partially due to the fact that it causes less heating and burning of tissue when compared to other lasers used for skin resurfacing. Erbium lasers are most commonly used in cosmetic and aesthetic applications. We have answered a few common questions in this post regarding erbium lasers in the dermatologic setting. What exactly is an erbium laser used for in dermatology? Some popular applications include laser resurfacing used to treat fine wrinkles, color irregularities, sun damage, acne scars and age spots along with rhinophyma treatment. How does the laser actually work in dermatology procedures? The erbium laser targets water. Since human skin consists mostly of water, this laser can easily remove small layers of skin.

You'll not only need an arena for the laser tag games, but you'll also need an arcade area, space for birthday parties and a snack area. The costs of renting a location can vary based on location.

( See discussion beginning in Paragraph 501.14.) Under IRC Section 528, even member assessments for future major repairs and replacements that are not considered to be contributions of capital (for example, painting), are nontaxable because they relate to the CIRA's exempt function activities. Under IRC Section 277, late fees, fines, and penalties from members are membership income because they result from transactions with members. There are differences of opinion, however, about whether they are taxable or nontaxable under IRC Section 528. Some accountants believe that they are taxable because they are not assessed proportionately to all members. They are similar to \"\"if-and-when-used\"\" charges, which are considered to be nonexempt function income. In the authors' opinion, however, late fees, fines, and penalties are exempt function income because they are derived from owners in their capacity as owner-members rather than in some other capacity, such as customers for services. Furthermore, the legislative intent of IRC Section 528 is not to tax members of an association for doing on a mutual basis that which they could do on an individual basis and not be taxed.

( b) Modified gross income. The “modified gross income” of a qualified settlement fund is its gross income, as defined in section 61, computed with the following modifications - (1) In general, amounts transferred to the qualified settlement fund by, or on behalf of, a transferor to resolve or satisfy a liability for which the fund is established are excluded from gross income. However, dividends on stock of a transferor (or a related person), interest on debt of a transferor (or a related person), and payments in compensation for late or delayed transfers, are not excluded from gross income . ( 2) A deduction is allowed for administrative costs and other incidental expenses incurred in connection with the operation of the qualified settlement fund that would be deductible under chapter 1 of the Internal Revenue Code in determining the taxable income of a corporation. Administrative costs and other incidental expenses include state and local taxes, legal, accounting, and actuarial fees relating to the operation of the qualified settlement fund, and expenses arising from the notification of claimants and the processing of their claims. Administrative costs and other incidental expenses do not include legal fees incurred by, or on behalf of, claimants. ( 3) A deduction is allowed for losses sustained by the qualified settlement fund in connection with the sale, exchange, or worthlessness of property held by the fund to the extent the losses would be deductible in determining the taxable income of a corporation under section 165 (f) or (g), and sections 1211 (a) and 1212 (a).

Consider this scenario: After buying a condo and living in it for several years, Sue meets Steve, marries him and moves into his house. Because the rental market in their area is improving, they decide that instead of selling Sue's condo, they could make some money by holding on to it and renting it out. But as first-time landlords, they don't know whether they need to report the rent they receive on their tax return and, if so, whether any of the money they spent to get the condo ready to rent is deductible.

The answer to that question can be both yes and no and can be complicated depending upon the nature of the legal expense. The Internal Revenue Code (IRC), which is the body of tax laws written by the United States (U. S.) Congress and approved by the president in office at the time the law is created, tells us that except as otherwise expressly provided, such as itemized deductions, no deduction shall be allowed for personal, living, or family expenses. The IRC also says that, in the case of an individual, deductions are allowed for all of the ordinary and necessary expenses paid or incurred during the taxable year: For the production or collection of taxable income;For the management, conservation, or maintenance of property held for the production of income; or In connection with the determination, collection, or refund of any tax. Applying those IRC provisions will allow you to determine whether a legal expense you’ve incurred is deductible or not, but the application can sometimes be complicated and also must take into account the Internal Revenue Service’s (IRS’s) interpretation of the law through rulings and regulations as well as the courts’ opinions on all of the above. The following are some frequently encountered situations and how legal expenses paid in those situations should be handled: Divorce – Legal costs, such as attorney fees and court costs, connected with divorce, separation, or support are non-deductible personal expenses. Non-deductibility extends to legal fees incurred in disputes over money claims. However, legal and accounting fees paid for tax advice in connection with the divorce are deductible, provided the amounts for those services are delineated on the legal firm’s billings. Taxable Alimony – The part of legal fees attributable to producing taxable alimony is deductible by the recipient of the alimony. The attorney’s statement or invoice should stipulate what part of the fee relates to alimony to ensure a deduction for the alimony recipient." }, { "docid": "D2952369#0", "title": "https://quizlet.com/78485979/tax-1-quizzes-flash-cards/\nTax 1 - Quizzes", "text": "\"90 terms tlam89Tax 1 - Quizzes Learn Flashcards Write Spell Test Match Gravity Advertisement Upgrade to remove ads Like this study set?

As the name suggests, the concept of TDS is to deduct tax at its source. Let us take an example of TDS assuming the nature of payment is professional fees on which specified rate is 10%. XYZ Ltd makes a payment of Rs 50,000/- towards professional fees to Mr. ABC, then XYZ Ltd shall deduct a tax of Rs 5,000/- and make a net payment of Rs 45,000/- (50,000/- deducted by Rs 5,000/-) to Mr. ABC.

Lyft drivers are averaging a Lyft salary of $25–30 during Friday and Saturday nights when Prime Time is on. Lyft Prime Time must be on during most of the time to exceed a Lyft salary of $25/hr. My Lyft salary was as high as $50 an hour for a few hours on Lyft but a Lyft salary above $40 an hour is not uncommon when Prime Time is on during a busy night on Lyft. Salary for Uber X Drivers Uber salary is based on fares from Uberx trips, minus 20% fee from Uber and $10 weekly Uber phone fee. Normal hourly Uber salary are about $15–25 dollars an hour without the Uber surge pricing. Airport runs can boost my hourly Uber salary to $30/hr as Uber X drivers get an extra $8.50 to drop off or pickup at the airport to cover tolls. In the mornings with 1.5–2x Uber surge pricing, my Uber salary was $30–40 an hour on Uber X. Uber surge pricing of 2–3x during Friday or Saturday nights (1–2am in Boston as bar last call is 1am), my Uber salary was $50–60 an hour. If you are an opportunist, you can make a few hundred a week on Uber by working very key hours on Uber X.

Years of stagnant, if not declining, housing values have deterred people from selling their homes – the most common source of funds to pay the often hefty admission fees charged by some retirement communities. ( i Stock Photo)Now, home prices and sales activity in many parts of the country have steadily improved. While some older seniors (the move-in age at many communities is from the late 70s to early 80s) undoubtedly have changed their minds about their future plans, the pent-up demand and rising numbers of seniors support the inevitability of a healthy recovery at many retirement communities. Seniors considering or reconsidering such a community should be aware that they may qualify for hefty tax breaks if they move into a retirement community that offers assisted living and skilled nursing support as part of what are considered lifetime care benefits. If their children or other family members provide major financial support for entrance fees and monthly expenses, they also may be eligible for tax deductions. [ See: 9 Little-Known Ways to Pay Fewer Taxes . ] Many seniors and their families are not aware of this tax benefit, according to Jerry Grant, executive vice president and chief financial officer of ACTS Retirement-Life Communities, Inc., which is based north of Philadelphia and operates 21 continuing care retirement communities in eight eastern and southern states. Grant says nearly all ACTS residents use the benefit once it's explained to them. \"\" In communities where a senior is contracting for services that include health care,\"\" he explains, \"\"if the contract is obligating the provider for those services, and if the contract includes a non-refundable entrance fee, then that fee is viewed by the IRS as a pre-payment expense for health care services. \"\"" }, { "docid": "D1740162#0", "title": "https://www.esmarttax.com/tax-forms/virginia-form-760-instructions/\nVirginia Form 760 Instructions", "text": "\"Virginia Form 760 Instructions What's New Virginia's Fixed Date Conformity with the Internal Revenue Code: Virginia's date of conformity with the federal enhanced Earned Income Tax Credit (\"\"EITC\"\") was extended to taxable years ending before January 1, 2018.

This can really hurt especially if the losses to be carried forward are significant. Therefore, your best option is to ensure that you file the income tax return by the deadline. Individuals primarily with salary income and certain other tax payers were required to file their tax returns by 31st July, 2014 for the financial year 2013-14 (assessment year 2014-15). Belated tax return :- As per the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961 (the ‘Act’), a tax payer who has not filed his tax returns within the due date or as per the time specified under a notice issued to him by tax authorities, may do so for a financial year before the expiry of one year from the end of relevant assessment year or before the completion of assessment, whichever is earlier. Thus, in case a tax payer has missed his due date of filing his returns by 31st July, 2014 —for the financial year 2013-14, he could still file his tax return by March 31, 2015. Penalty for non-filing:- If a tax payer fails to file his returns before the end of the relevant assessment year, then tax authorities may impose a penalty of Rs. 5,000. Therefore, it would be prudent for the tax payer who has missed the deadline to file his returns latest by March 31, 2015, to avoid any penalty." }, { "docid": "D91530#0", "title": "https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/tax-tips/Rental-Property/Real-Estate-Tax-and-Rental-Property/INF12039.html\nReal Estate Tax and Rental Property", "text": "\"The article below is accurate for your 2017 taxes, the one that you file this year by the April 2018 deadline, including a few retroactive changes due to the passing of tax reform.

It’s important to get it right or chances are you’ll be less than satisfied with the results. “ Ideal” is a tough concept, though – like most things, you’re best to aim for moderation. Take temperature, for example. We typically have two types of paints to worry about – solvent-borne enamels and a wide range of latex-based waterborne paints. How does cold affect them? All paints get thick (or more viscous) in the cold and are much harder to use especially solvent borne enamels.

Coupled with poor ventilation, the still water can quickly lead to mold build-up. And that mold can cause skin reactions, nausea, allergies, asthma attacks and other serious health issues. Mold is fairly easy to kill on smooth materials such as tile, but it can be more difficult when it hides within the porous surfaces of wood, carpet and drywall. Bleach is highly effective at killing mold spores and is the active ingredient in most mold sprays, but it cannot penetrate porous surfaces. Bleach also produces toxic fumes that can be harmful to inhale. The fizz of hydrogen peroxide The effervescent nature of hydrogen peroxide makes it more effective than chlorine bleach at reaching and killing mold on porous surfaces. It is also inexpensive and readily available at grocery stores and pharmacies. Once you’ve tackled the mold stains, you can absorb any lingering odors naturally with salt water, lemon slices or vinegar. And to prevent musty odors from building up again in the future, be sure to fix any leaks and consider investing in a dehumidifier to keep the room dry." }, { "docid": "D388816#0", "title": "http://www.aafa.org/page/latex-allergy.aspx\nAllergies", "text": "\"Latex Allergy What Is Latex?

Balloons filled with helium gas usually last less than a day, and need to be inflated on the day of your function. If you are DIY, always do a test inflation the day before to determine the flying time of the balloons under your conditions. Flying times will depend on the size and quality of the balloons, and the conditions on the day you inflate them. A standard size helium balloon is 28cm (11\"\") and should fly for 12-18 hours. Balloons are adversely affected by heat, wind and sun, so keep them in a cool, dark place until needed. Australia is a hot country, so I am always conservative with balloon flying times, and any extra is a bonus. Don’t leave helium filled balloons in your car while you shop for the party – pay the extra for delivery or DIY at the venue just before the function. ( 1) Mathematically, it depends on several variables m = PVM/RT where: m = mass of the gas in grams P = pressure inside the balloon, in atmospheres V = volume in liters M = Molecular weight of the gas R = a constant = 0.082 T = Absolute temperature, Kelvin At sea-level, the air pressure is 1 atmosphere and say we are at room temperature. Then P = 1 and T = 293K.'

It’s actually more appropriate to say that helium is less dense than air. That’s because helium molecules are not packed together as densely as air molecules are.

How Much Does a Helium Tank Cost? Helium tanks are often purchased for those who need enough helium to fill up a handful of balloons since it’s cheaper than renting and/or buying the balloons. The cost of a tank will depend on the size of the helium tank, the brand and where you purchase it.“ Balloons ” ( CC BY 2.0 ) by O. S. Fisher How much is it? Most helium tanks purchased online are disposable and can fill about 50 to 100 balloons. On average, a disposable tank is going to cost anywhere from $30 to $65. For example, this disposable helium tank created by Worthington Cylinders costs around $35 to $60. This disposable helium tank created by Giant Party Store costs about$40 to $52.

The organizers employ mules to reduce the risk of getting caught themselves. Methods of smuggling include hiding the goods in vehicles or carried items, attaching them to one's body, or using the body as a container. In the case of transporting illegal drugs, the term drug mule applies. Other slang terms include Kinder Surprise and Easter Egg. Small-scale operations, in which one courier carries one piece or a very small quantity, are sometimes called the ant trade.

( Image: Hemera Technologies/Photo Objects.net/Getty Images)Latex is a natural, creamy liquid substance that forms from under the bark of rubber trees. Found in items such as balloons, rubber toys, bandages, pacifiers, baby bottle nipples, dental supplies, condoms, masks and costumes, Latex is the primary material contained in rubber household gloves and many types of house paint. There are several products to remove latex paint. Natural Disolvents Latex consists of 55 to 65 percent water. The ozone, oxygen, heat, ultra violet rays and humidity exceeding 40 percent causes latex to evaporate, leading to deterioration. When it comes to latex, the old adage of \"\"water and oil don't mix\"\" rings true. Latex will deteriorate when coming in contact with oil and petroleum-based products such as shoe polish, saddle soap, Vaseline and other forms of petroleum-based jelly, many hand lotions, oil-based soaps and lubricants.

Nitrile gloves were at first heralded as a solution to a growing minority of people who have developed allergies to the latex proteins that accompany latex gloves. But the truth is, nitrile gloves are not suitable replacements for the latex glove in some situations; the surgical operating room being one of those places. However, nitrile gloves are ideal for environments where puncture resistance is important and where resistance to hydrocarbons is critical. Nitrile gloves have a reputation for not fitting as well as latex gloves. This reputation was earned early in the development of the nitrile butadiene formulae that are used to create the gloves and this reputation was also formed before newer manufacturing processes have attentuated these early problems. Glove Nation is proud to say that all our nitrile gloves are made with advanced NBR formulae and processes that produce the best possible fit for any nitrile glove, while also maintaining superior resistance to oils, fuels and solvents. There are some applications where nitrile gloves are the only gloves that make sense. Dentists prefer nitrile gloves because, along with the reduced possibility of allergic reactions for their patients, nitrile gloves offer superior puncture resistance; important when those evil-looking little hooks that dentists love are being handled. In this age of scary blood-borne diseases, dentista are all too aware of the need to protect themselves." }, { "docid": "D2835863#0", "title": "http://www.cleanroomconnection.com/cleanroom-gloves/chemo-gloves/\nChemo Gloves", "text": "\"Chemo Gloves for Maximum Protection and USP 800 Compliance Our line of cleanroom-rated sterile and non-sterile chemo gloves provide superior chemical resistance and durable barrier protection.

OSHA requires the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) to reduce employee exposure to hazards when engineering and administrative controls are not feasible or effective in reducing hazard exposure. Employers are required to determine if PPE should be used to protect their workers. If PPE is needed you must not only provide employees with PPE, but implement a PPE program. This program should address the hazards present; the selection, maintenance, and use of PPE; the training of employees; and monitoring of the program to ensure its ongoing effectiveness. Completing the Assessment OSHA requires employers to complete an assessment of the physical and health hazards of the workplace to determine if PPE is needed. The easiest way to complete this assessment is to walk the worksite and write down the hazards. Below are the common types of physical and health hazards. Physical hazards include: Sources of motion;Sources of high and low temperatures;Sources of light radiationweldingbrazingheat treatinghigh intensity lights;Sources of falling objects;Sources of sharp objects;Sources of rolling or pinching objects;Sources of electric hazards; and Floor conditions.

Each category includes its own corresponding safety equipment that will be described below. Eye and Face Protection Eye protection is achieved by wearing eyewear specifically designed to reduce the risk of exposure to chemical splashes, laser radiation and/or flying debris. There are four primary types of eye protection — of which each has its own limitations — including general safety glasses, laser safety glasses, chemical splash goggles and impact goggles. Full face protection is achieved by wearing face shields. Type Use General safety glasses Must have side shields, or a one-piece lens that wraps around the temple.

The substance is then processed to increase elasticity, durability and strength. Many products are made from latex, including dummies for babies, rubber bands, balloons, shoe soles, condoms, gloves, catheters and stethoscopes. Estimates vary, but between one and six per cent of people are allergic to latex. They are allergic either to the proteins found naturally in the substance, or to the industrial chemicals (such as mercaptobenzothiazole) added during manufacturing. Latex allergy is much more prevalent in the health care industry, with around 10 per cent of health professionals affected.

The following is a list of gloves and their appropriate application, according to the National Safety Council: Cotton and fabric gloves: These can keep hands clean and protect against abrasions, but may not be strong enough to handle work with rough or sharp materials. Coated fabric gloves: This type of glove can provide protection against some moderate concentrated chemicals. They can be used in laboratory work provided they are strong enough to protect against the specific chemical being handled. Rubber, plastic or synthetic gloves: These types of glove can be used when cleaning or working with oils, solvents and other chemicals. Leather gloves: These should be used when welding, as the leather can resist sparks and moderate heat. The risk of cuts and abrasions also can be minimized by wearing leather gloves.

A latex allergy is a hypersensitivity to latex, which is a natural substance made of the milky sap of the rubber tree. Latex allergies arise when the immune system, which normally guards the body against bacteria, viruses and toxins, also reacts to latex. In any type of allergy, when the immune system reacts against an otherwise harmless substance, the substance is called an allergen. When the immune system detects the allergen, a type of antibody named immunoglobulin E (Ig E) is produced, triggering the release of chemicals within the body. One chemical is histamine. Histamine is partly responsible for the redness, itching and swelling that can occur in the skin during an allergic reaction, and it produces symptoms of hives, rashes, a runny nose, and watery, swollen eyes. Histamine can also lead to breathing difficulties and a severe allergic reaction called anaphylaxis that can include a sudden drop in blood pressure, an increase in pulse, and tissue swelling. Latex is a flexible, elastic and relatively inexpensive material used in a number of healthcare and consumer products. Because it forms an effective barrier against infectious organisms, latex is used to make hospital and medical items, such as surgical and examination gloves and some parts of anesthetic tubing, ventilation bags, respiratory tubing and intravenous (IV) lines." }, { "docid": "D2177987#0", "title": "https://www.cdc.gov/oralhealth/infectioncontrol/glossary.htm\nÂ« A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z Â»", "text": "« A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z »AAdministrative controls: the use of administrative measures (i.e., policies and procedures and enforcement measures) to reduce the risk of exposure to pathogenic organisms.

Assorted gloves (a museum collection)A glove ( Middle English from Old English glof) is a garment covering the whole hand. Gloves have separate sheaths or openings for each finger and the thumb; if there is an opening but no (or a short) covering sheath for each finger they are called fingerless gloves. Fingerless gloves having one large opening rather than individual openings for each finger are sometimes called gauntlets, though gauntlets are not necessarily fingerless. Gloves which cover the entire hand or fist but do not have separate finger openings or sheaths are called mittens. Mittens are warmer than other styles of gloves made of the same material because fingers maintain their warmth better when they are in contact with each other. Reduced surface area reduces heat loss. A hybrid of glove and mitten contains open-ended sheaths for the four fingers (as in a fingerless glove, but not the thumb) and an additional compartment encapsulating the four fingers. This compartment can be lifted off the fingers and folded back to allow the individual fingers ease of movement and access while the hand remains covered. The usual design is for the mitten cavity to be stitched onto the back of the fingerless glove only, allowing it to be flipped over (normally held back by Velcro or a button) to transform the garment from a mitten to a glove." }, { "docid": "D1946961#0", "title": "http://www.hse.gov.uk/biosafety/blood-borne-viruses/use-of-gloves.htm\nThe use of gloves", "text": "The use of gloves Within the hierarchy of controls recommended by COSHH, elimination and engineering controls should have priority over the use of personal protective equipment, including the use of gloves. However, where it is not possible to achieve adequate control by other means alone, personal protective equipment, including gloves, should be used in combination with, and in addition to, other controls. In practical terms, gloves play an important role in protecting workers from exposure to blood-borne viruses, especially where there is a risk of injury, such as a puncture wound with contaminated sharps, abrasions or cuts. It is likely to be in the laboratory and healthcare sectors where staff are at greatest risk of exposure. Also, the Advisory Committee on Dangerous Pathogens (ACDP) guidance The management, design and operation of microbiological containment laboratories ' (HSE 2001) recommends that 'gloves should be worn for all work with material known or suspected of containing hazard group 3 biological agents' and that 'a supply of suitable disposable gloves in various sizes and materials should be available in the laboratory'.

This means that even if the glove wearer isn't allergic to latex, it still might be a good idea to switch to nitrile. For example, even if a tattoo artist doesn't have a latex allergy, one of his customers may. There is also a trend away from powdered gloves to powder-free gloves. Does it really save that much time to put on a powdered glove? Every time you don a powdered glove, a little bit of the powder gets in your lungs, and also on whatever substance you're using. Another common misconception is some people thinking they get latex allergies when they use powdered nitrile gloves.

The aim is to introduce students both to the details of Aquinas's particular the�ory of law, as well as to the features of his view that define what has come to be known as \"\"the natural law\"\" conception of law more generally. Though the essay is for the most part exegetical, some of the more important implications of the natural law position are raised for further thought and to pave the way for the study of alternative views that have been developed in the subsequent history of the philosophy of law. One brief note about the structure of the essay will complete my introductory remarks: The essay tries as far as possible to present Aquinas's theory in his own words. Material taken directly from Aquinas appears in italic type throughout, with the origin of the quotation given in parentheses following the text. All of the material is taken from Aquinas's Summa Theologica; the translation from Latin is that of the Fathers of the English Dominican Province.1 I. Of the Essence of Law Aquinas begins his discussion of law with a consid�eration of the nature or essence of law in general. In this way he sets the tone and task of future jurispru�dence or philosophy of law. What makes a particular rule or directive a law? What is it that all laws have in common and which gives them the force of law?

The law controls social relations and behavior To satisfy our basic needs and to exploit the full potential of human existence, people have always sought to live in company or society with others, the basis of this existence, by its very nature, must involve social interaction. To ensure the society functions effectively and survives it is necessary to establish norms of acceptable behavior. The state may impose sanctions or punishments on those who fail to comply with these rules. Although these norms are generally accepted by members of the society and are included in the legal order, social interaction will inevitably lead to disputes because of conflicting interests of individuals and groups. It is difficult for groups of individuals to live in perfect harmony. The objective of any legal system will be providing answers to everyday problems that arise. The solutions to such problems must accord with the objectives that are judged by the community to be socially desirable. The law tells people what they must do or refrain from doing.

Originalism in the long run better preserves the authority of the Court.3. Non-originalism allows too much room for judges to impose their own subjective and elitist values. Judges need neutral, objective criteria to make legitimate decisions. The understanding of the framers and ratifiers of a constitutional clause provide those neutral criteria.4.

Affirmative action in the United States began with efforts to ensure the elimination of discriminatory practices, but soon developed into programs conferring preferential treatment. Preferential treatment has been upheld as a remedy for past injustice, yet condemned as an instrument of present injustice. It has been praised for increasing minority access to business and professional careers, and blamed for debasing standards in the process. It is supposed by some to have raised and by others to have undermined the self-esteem of its recipients and the value placed on them by others. The emotions involved in the controversy over preference are powerful and often partisan. It is not my purpose to arouse these emotions or to persuade by means of them. Rather, I wish to inquire whether there are moral principles, commonly accepted, that are or should be decisive. American law on this subject is uncertain, even contradictory; however, the question here is not what the law but what morality requires.

People may commit murder in circumstances where the murder was not planned, in fits of rage, etc. The criminal justice system is no longer based purely on retribution - other factors such as rehabilitation also play an increasingly important role. As for whether death penalty is justifiable in the \"\"rarest of rare\"\" cases, there will always be proponents of it who believe that some people truly deserve to die, while others believe that nothing gives us the right to take another person's life. More than two thirds of countries have abolished the death penalty in law or in practice [1] Regardless of your own moral stand on whether somebody deserves to die for their crimes, there are many other consideration which play a role -No legal system is perfect, and there will always be the possibility of an innocent person being executed. One may argue that the same applies to cases of imprisonment as well, but it's just a case of what is the 'lesser evil'. Supporters of death penalty will have to accept that innocent people may be killed by the State. Consider the case of Troy Davis, who is widely believed to have been innocent.

More than a century later, Durkheim could observe, apparently without exaggeration, that economists upheld the division of labor not only as necessary, but as \"\"the supreme law of human societies and the condition of their progress. 3 Greater concentrations of productive forces and capital investment seemed to lead modern industry, business, and agriculture toward greater separation and specialization of occupations, and even a greater interdependence among the products themselves." }, { "docid": "D3306721#0", "title": "https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/pierre-joseph-proudhon-what-is-property-an-inquiry-into-the-principle-of-right-and-of-governmen\nWhat is Property?

DMT is illegal because of a United Nations Convention on Psychotropic Drugs in 1971, that all countries signed except East Timor, Equatorial Guinea, Haiti, Kiribati, Liberia, Nauru, Samoa, Solomon Islands, South Sudan, Tuvalu and Vanuatu. DMT is illegal because LSD was made illegal in the United States in the 1966, which then catalyses the United Nations blanket ban on all psychotropic compounds in 1971. The United Nations convention put LSD and DMT into the schedule 1 category, even higher than morphine or amphetamine (which are in Schedule 2), stating that compounds in schedule 1 pose a serious risk to public health and have no therapeutic value – and yet, no evidence for these claims and resulting legislation were ever made.

There are no reported deaths from anyone smoking DMT and neither have I heard of anyone becoming physically injured from smoking DMT. DMT is non-addictive and no physical harm has ever been shown to be demonstrated with the administration of DMT. So why is DMT still illegal then?

While many in our society may see no problem with this arrangement, living together and having sexual relations before marriage can never be reconciled with what God expects of us.

Why We Need Laws to Exist In Society Share Flipboard Email Print Image courtesy of [People Images.com] / Getty Imagesby Tom Head Updated March 30, 2018Laws exist for five basic reasons, and all of them can be abused. Below, read the five major reasons why we need laws in our society to survive and thrive.01of 05The Harm Principle Stephen Simpson/Iconica/Getty Images Laws created under the Harm Principle are written to protect people from being harmed by others. Laws against violent crime and property crime fall into this category. Without basic Harm Principle laws, a society ultimately degenerates into despotism -- the rule of the strong and violent over the weak and nonviolent. Harm Principle laws are essential, and every government on Earth has them.02of 05The Parental Principle In addition to laws intended to discourage people from harming each other, some laws are written to prohibit self-harm. Parental Principle laws include compulsory attendance laws for children, laws against neglect of children and vulnerable adults, and laws banning the possession of certain drugs. Some Parental Principle laws are essential to protect children and vulnerable adults, but even in those cases, they can be oppressive if they are not narrowly written and sensibly enforced.03of 05The Morality Principle Some laws are based not strictly on harm or self-harm concerns, but also on promoting the personal morality of the law's authors. These laws are usually, but not always, grounded in religious belief. Historically, most of these laws have something to do with sex -- but some European laws against Holocaust denial and other forms of hate speech also appear to be motivated primarily by the Morality Principle.04of 05The Donation Principle All governments have laws granting goods or services of some kind to its citizens." }, { "docid": "D2994396#0", "title": "https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/democracy/\nDemocracy", "text": "Democracy First published Thu Jul 27, 2006Normative democratic theory deals with the moral foundations of democracy and democratic institutions. It is distinct from descriptive and explanatory democratic theory. It does not offer in the first instance a scientific study of those societies that are called democratic. It aims to provide an account of when and why democracy is morally desirable as well as moral principles for guiding the design of democratic institutions. Of course, normative democratic theory is inherently interdisciplinary and must call on the results of political science, sociology and economics in order to give this kind of concrete guidance. This brief outline of normative democratic theory focuses attention on four distinct issues in recent work. First, it outlines some different approaches to the question of why democracy is morally desirable at all. Second, it explores the question of what it is reasonable to expect from citizens in large democratic societies. This issue is central to the evaluation of normative democratic theories as we will see. A large body of opinion has it that most classical normative democratic theory is incompatible with what we can reasonably expect from citizens." }, { "docid": "D1864841#0", "title": "http://people.tamu.edu/%7Esdaniel/quessoci.html\n.", "text": "\"PHIL 251: Intro. to Philosophy (Daniel) Test Questions Social-Political Philosophy and Aesthetics Answers at end.

A variation on this theme is the idea, now very popular in some academic circles that there is no such thing as higher and lower forms of social development and culture. This denial of progress in history is characteristic of the psychology of the bourgeoisie in the phase of capitalist decline. Henry Ford is reported to have said \"\"history is bunk\"\". For those of you who are not familiar with the intricacies of American slang, the word bunk signifies nonsense - and non-sense signifies something which has no meaning. This not very elegant phrase adequately expresses an opinion that has gathered strength in recent years. The illustrious founder of the Ford motor company further refined his definition of history when he described it as \"\" just one damn thing after another \"\", which is one way of looking at it.

This article will help you understand the differences and the implications of classifying your lease as a capital lease vs. an operating lease. Capital Lease A lease will be categorized as a capital lease if it meets any of the following conditions: There is a bargain purchase option, where the asset either automatically transfers to the lessee at the end of the lease term or can be bought for an amount that is less than what the asset would actually be worth. The term of the lease is more than 75% of the effective useful life of the asset. The present value of the lease payments exceeds 90% of the original cost of the asset. When a lease is considered to be a capital lease it is treated as if the asset is acquired through a loan. The company will recognize the asset on their balance sheet and also recognize the lease obligation as a liability. Over time the asset will be amortized like any other capital asset and the lease obligation will go down as lease payments are made. For tax purposes the company will also treat the lease in a similar fashion, with the asset being recognized and a depreciation expense recognized over its life. Some companies prefer to use capital leases as the accelerated depreciation allows them to expense the assets (for tax purposes) more quickly up front instead of evenly over the life of the lease." } ]	[ { "docid": "D867929#0", "title": "https://www.ato.gov.au/law/view/document?docid=CON/C2-1-060\nConsolidation Reference Manual", "text": "\"Back to browse 2 related documents Previous section \| Next section Consolidation Reference Manual The Consolidation reference manual was last updated on 15 July 2011.

The basics In order for a person to be liable to capital gains tax on the sale of a property, they must either be resident or ordinarily resident in the UK (TCGA 1992, s2). The asset must be a chargeable asset, ie anything that is not an exempt asset. Exempt assets are usually wasting assets, such as cars that are likely to be disposed of at a loss. The disposal could be by way of a sale or gift, or by destruction. Death is not an occasion of charge for capital gains tax (TCGA 1992, s62) (although a loss in the year of death can be carried back to the three years prior to death). Personal representatives also have an annual exemption for the year of death and the two following years. A company is also a chargeable person (TCGA 1992, s8), but company gains are chargeable to corporation tax and the rules for computing the gain are slightly different, as companies can claim indexation allowance on their base costs. Gifts between husband and wife or between civil partners are treated as made at a value that incurs neither gain nor loss, provided that they have not separated and still live together (TCGA 1992, s58).

July 8, 2016 By Jennifer Windell Share to: Deciding whether to expense or capitalize fixed assets is one of the most difficult concepts for business owners to grasp. Pretend for a moment you buy a vehicle to be used solely for business. You know it can’t be expensed, so you record it as a fixed asset. Easy, right? But what if you buy a computer, rightly record it as a fixed asset, but then later need printer to go with it. Should that printer be expensed, or should it also be capitalized? Things can get fuzzy quickly. Accounting standards are great at telling people how to capitalize a fixed asset, but they often don’t provide a lot of guidance on exactly which assets to capitalize and how to depreciate the ones you do capitalize. As a business owner, you obviously have a lot of expenses, so how do you decipher the rules?" }, { "docid": "D2520818#0", "title": "http://mrsc.org/Home/Explore-Topics/Finance/Debt/Types-of-Municipal-Debt.aspx\nTypes of Municipal Debt", "text": "\"Types of Municipal Debt On this Page This page provides an overview of the distinct types of debt and borrowing available to local governments in Washington State. Overview Local government can borrow money in a number of different ways. These various mechanisms for borrowing are either long-term or short-term, and they can be repaid through tax revenues, user fees, or special assessments. Long-term debt is a commonly used means of financing large capital assets such as infrastructure, buildings, and large pieces of equipment. Issuing debt increases the total cost of the asset through the payment of interest, but it also allows local governments to acquire or build capital assets sooner by borrowing up front for assets that they could not otherwise fund from existing cash resources. By spreading out the debt payments over many years, local governments can also smooth out their expenses and create a more predictable cash flow. Short-term debt can be used to cover a temporary cash flow deficit or provide for an interim method of financing until long-term borrowing has been secured. The amount of debt a government may incur is limited by the Washington State Constitution, individual state statutes, and whether the debt is being repaid with tax or nontax revenue sources. Federal law establishes rules about the tax status of government securities and the process for issuing and disclosing debt obligations. Debt Types There are three distinct types of debt that can be issued by local government: General obligation (GO) debt is secured by the full faith and credit of the local government issuing the debt." }, { "docid": "D1640680#0", "title": "http://amerilawyer.com/fl_llc.htm\nFLORIDA LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY$154.95 (INCLUDES FLORIDA STATE FILING FEES, ATTORNEY'S FEES, LLC SEAL AND BOOK, ARTICLES OF ORGANIZATION, LLC MINUTES, LLC REGULATIONS, MEMBERSHIP CERTIFICATE AND PRELIMINARY NAME SEARCH)", "text": "\" Another paramount reason,ATTORNEY-CLIENT PRIVILEGEto select Spiegel & Utrera, P.

Today corporations are increasingly looking at \"\"off-balance sheet\"\" options, notably leveraged leases and synthetic leases, to finance the acquisition or construction of new facilities. Facility and real estate managers do not need a complete understanding of all the tax, finance and legal issues that are involved in these techniques. However, in order to safeguard the company's long-term facility interests they do need to \"\"raise the level of their game\"\" and gather a more comprehensive understanding of the issues in play. This article will describe leveraged and synthetic leases and discuss why they are attractive to corporations. It will also review some of the constraints these techniques can impose on near-term and long term facility planning and how these effects might be mitigated. Lease Types and their Benefits If a company can utilize a building reasonably well for ten years or more, ownership is generally more cost-effective than leasing. Ownership provides the company with interest and depreciation tax benefits. Overall ownership cost is not encumbered by a landlord/investor's administrative burden or profit margin.

Why? Trucks are leased for both personal use and commercial (business) use. There are significant differences in how each type of lease works. One of the advantages of truck leasing is that trucks generally have high future resale values. This translates to higher lease-end residual values, which in turn translates to lower monthly lease payments. Personal truck leasing If you need a new pickup truck with low monthly payments, a closed-end personal lease will be the answer, not an open-end lease. To lease a truck for personal use is no different than leasing a car, minivan, or SUV. A lease offers lower monthly payments than buying with a loan, and may not require a down payment.

Executive Summary Recent legislation authorized the Department of General Services (DGS) to sell and then lease back 11 state–owned office properties. The sale–leaseback is designed to free up the state’s equity in the buildings to provide one–time revenue for addressing the state’s current budgetary shortfall. The leaseback component would allow the state to retain use of the properties. The DGS has initiated the process for selling and leasing back the properties and expects to select a buyer or buyers as early as the end of May. In order to maintain oversight of the process, the legislation requires DGS to report on the terms and conditions of any sale–leaseback to the Legislature’s fiscal committees 30 days prior to completing a transaction. During this 30–day period, the Legislature has an opportunity to review the transaction and determine whether the sale–leaseback is preferable to maintaining state–ownership of the buildings. In this report, we outline the key issues the Legislature will need to consider in comparing the sale–leaseback to the status quo. Major Up Front Benefit… The major benefit of the sale–leaseback transaction is the one–time revenue from the sale of the buildings. Proceeds from the sale would first retire the bonds associated with the buildings, while the remainder would provide one–time revenue to the state’s General Fund. The 2010–11 Governor’s Budget estimates sale proceeds would provide $598 million to the General Fund." }, { "docid": "D1209056#0", "title": "https://www.irs.gov/publications/p925\nPublication 925 - Main Content", "text": "\"Publication 925 - Main Content Passive Activity Limits Who Must Use These Rules?

There are two main types of leases, namely operating leases (where rent is paid in exchange for the right to use an asset) and finance leases (which is a method used by the lessee to finance the purchase of an asset). This article focuses on the Income Tax implications that result from finance lease agreements from the perspective of the lessee. Simultaneously the Value-Added Tax (VAT) implications of finance leases need to be considered as the amounts recognised for Income Tax purposes should exclude amounts that was declared or claimed for VAT-purposes. The accounting treatment of finance leases in terms of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) is another key aspect to consider since the calculation of taxable income of certain taxpayers (e.g. companies) starts with the accounting profit before tax. To ensure that the correct adjustments are made during the conversion of the accounting profit to taxable income, one needs to understand how the accounting profit is compiled. Finance leases from an accounting perspective In terms of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) a lease is considered to be a \"\"finance lease” if at least one of the following requirements is met: Ownership of the asset will be transferred to the lessee at the end of the lease agreement. The lease agreement provides an option to the lessee to purchase the leased asset at a price that is significantly lower than the fair value of the asset on the purchase date. The lease term covers a major part of the asset’s economic lifetime. The minimum lease payments (on inception of the lease) equal the greatest portion of the leased asset’s fair value." }, { "docid": "D3274234#0", "title": "https://www.ftb.ca.gov/businesses/credits/mic/references/guide2001/guide09.shtml\nLeases", "text": "Leases# Item ✔ Date LEASES64.

Financial Statements: The System Financial Statements: Cash Flow Financial Statements: Earnings Financial Statements: Revenue Financial Statements: Working Capital Financial Statements: Long-Lived Assets Financial Statements: Long-Term Liabilities Financial Statements: Pension Plans Financial Statements: Conclusion By David Harper ( Contact David) Long-term liabilities are company obligations that extend beyond the current year, or alternately, beyond the current operating cycle. Most commonly, these include long-term debt such as company-issued bonds. Here we look at how debt compares to equity as a part of a company's capital structure, and how to examine the way in which a company uses debt. The following long-term liabilities are typically found on the balance sheet: You can see that we describe long-term liabilities as either operating or financing. Operating liabilities are obligations created in the course of ordinary business operations, but they are not created by the company raising cash from investors. Financing liabilities are debt instruments that are the result of the company raising cash. In other words, the company issued debt - often in a prior period - in exchange for cash and must repay the principal plus interest. Operating and financing liabilities are similar in that they both will require future cash outlays by the company. It is useful to keep them separate in your mind, however, because financing liabilities are triggered by a company's deliberate funding decisions and, therefore, will often offer clues about a company's future prospects." } ]

Quentin Sommerville: \"\"This appears to be some kind of retribution for Hezbollah's support of President Assad in Syria\"\"Lebanon is holding a day of national mourning after at least 41 people were killed in two suicide bombings in the capital, Beirut. The Islamic State (IS) militant group says it was behind the attacks in Burj al-Barajneh, a mainly Shia southern suburb and Hezbollah stronghold. Hezbollah forces are fighting IS in neighbouring Syria. The bombing is the deadliest in the capital since the end of Lebanon's civil war in 1990. Lebanese Prime Minister Tammam Salam called for unity in the face of attempts to create strife. In reaction from Washington, the White House in a statement condemned the \"\"horrific terrorist\"\" bomb blasts which it said \"\"would only serve to reinforce our commitment to support the institutions of the Lebanese state, including the security services, to ensure a stable, sovereign and secure Lebanon\"\".

Current developments increasingly involve alliances between important Christian and Muslim groups. Tragically, however, the new-found Muslim-Christian cooperation is part of current conflict within Lebanon rather than involving efforts for increased stability and peace in the country. The rallies on the second anniversary of the murder of former Prime Minister Hariri in support of the current government of Prime Minister Siniora and the continuing “sit-in” protest in central Beirut opposing that government involve the important reshaping of Lebanese political life in many ways, including the nature of Muslim-Christian relations. In the current crisis, Muslim-Christian alliances are part of an emerging framework of tensions that is quite different from the lines of conflict in the old Lebanese civil war of 1975-1990. The old conflicts were complex but could, with some accuracy, be described as power struggles that pitted Christians against Muslims. The classic descriptions of the old Lebanese political system all start with the picture of Lebanese politics defined by the historic agreement among Lebanese leaders during World War II: political positions were divided between “Christians” and “Muslims” according to an agreed-upon ratio. When this system broke down in the mid-1970s, the resulting civil war was regularly seen as involving the competition between those two groupings. In the early 1980s, both participants and analyst-observers saw the conflict in these terms. Robin Wright noted that “the main dispute is over the balance of power between the majority Muslims and the ruling minority Christians.” (" }, { "docid": "D2997227#0", "title": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Offensive_terms_per_nationality\nList of ethnic slurs by ethnicity", "text": "\"List of ethnic slurs by ethnicity From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Offensive terms per nationality)navigation search This list of ethnic slurs compiles words that are, or have been, used ethnic slurs sorted by ethnicity.

Although most popular amongst the population in Lebanon, where it is the 2nd most common surname, [1] the name can also be found within Christian communities in Israel, Syria Palestine, and Jordan [2] It is often given as a last name to a new priest or minister, replacing the old one and to the children of the married priest and their descendants in similar fashion as the surname Cohen was adopted by the children of the Jewish priestly class [3]. In the Maronite Church, even though in communion with the Roman Catholic Church, as well as in the Eastern Orthodox Churches, married men are allowed to become priests. It is common for a family to keep the Khoury surname for generations past the life of the priest.

Sample text in Lebanese Arabic (online alphabet)Kill el bachar byekhla2o a7rar w metsewyin bil karame w el 7o2ou2. W hinne nwahabo 3a2el w damir, w lezim y3emlo ba3dun el ba3ed b’rou7 el okhouwe. ( El band el awal min el e3len el 3alame la 7o2ou2 el insen)A recording of this text by Hadi El-Khoury Translation All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.

Updated Apr 14, 2017 · Author has 473 answers and 1.2m answer views What an excellent question! I am a professional in-home appliance repair technician, and I can tell you most assuredly... it depends. Rule number one: you can't get a more reliable machine by paying more for it. In fact, it's usually the opposite. Computers add hundreds of components to a machine. If one of those components fail, it's new computer time. Repair cost: $200-300. If you can find one, get a fridge without a computer. Rule number two: keep the condenser coils clean." }, { "docid": "D1707572#0", "title": "http://www.johnlewis.com/browse/electricals/fridges-freezers/fridge-freezers/_/N-ads\nFridge Freezers (376)", "text": "Fridge Freezers (376)Whether you're on the lookout for an American fridge freezer or something more traditional, our range has something for your needs.

Mostly, that's because this type of fridge is thought to be less convenient to use, since you have to stoop to get to the main compartment, and they offer fewer organizational options. However, they also tend to be more reliable and less expensive. If you think that a different style of refrigerator might be a better fit for your needs, see our discussions of bottom-freezer refrigerators, side-by-side refrigerators, French-door refrigerators and counter-depth refrigerators elsewhere in this report. We also cover full-sized freezers in their own report, if you find you need more space for frozen goods than your refrigerator's freezer offers. Among top-freezer models, the LG LTCS24223S (Est. $1,200) rises once again to the top for this update. It is tested and reviewed at Consumer Reports, Reviewed and CNET and earns recommendations from all three sites. It also gets very good feedback from owners.

I searched the internet for answers and found one complaint after another regarding this and other issues with Samsung refrigerators. Wish I had done more research before I purchased. However, I did find a Service Guide online and now know where the coils are.

The lifespan of a quality fridge can last for many years, which is why it’s hard to tell when you need to call a repair technician and when you need to start looking into buying a new fridge. However, before your fridge completely gives out, it will usually give you a few indications that’s it’s wearing out. Let’s take a look at nine of the most obvious signs that you may need a new refrigerator in the near future.1. Excessive Condensation If your fridge looks as though it’s sweating in the middle of a heat wave, the problem might be that it’s not cooling properly. If you notice this, you should immediately analyze the rubber sealing around the door to see if there are any water droplets or signs of mildew or mold. Depending on how bad the sealing may be, you could potentially fix it on your own. You may also notice signs of condensation inside your fridge as well. If so, this typically means your temperature setting isn’t operating as it should. If the problem persists long enough, there’s a good chance the inaccurate temperature will start ruining your food.2." }, { "docid": "D2584083#0", "title": "http://www.roadtrucker.com/engel/engel-12-volt-fridge-freezer-faq.htm\nEngel 12-Volt Fridge/Freezer Frequently Asked Questions", "text": "\"Engel 12-Volt Fridge/Freezer Frequently Asked Questions Tweet FAQ's - FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONSThe Engel 12-Volt Fridge/Freezer is an international brand and world leader in portable 12-Volt compressor and refrigeration technology.

Your refrigerator operates when you're at home, sleeping or away at work. A good refrigerator can last for years, but at some point all refrigerators begin to break down. Many factors go into deciding whether to repair or replace. Age Most refrigerators can last 10 to 20 years. Consider repair if it is less than 8 years old. If the refrigerator is more than 15 years old, consider replacing it. If the fridge is between eight and 15 years old, you must take other factors into consideration such as type of refrigerator and efficiency. Type of Refrigerator Some types of refrigerators are more difficult and costly to repair than others. For instance, built-in refrigerators are usually less expensive to repair, according to Consumer Reports, but side-by-side refrigerators may be good candidates for replacement if they are well over 5 years old." }, { "docid": "D2997926#0", "title": "http://www.pnphpbb.com/qna/How_long_do_jalapenos_last_in_fridge-qna69732.html\n.", "text": "\"Q How long do jalapenos last in fridge?

Once you’ve cleared up what belongs where, the next step is knowing how long the food will last. Storing food is a delicate matter — in the fridge, food might get moist and moldy, and in the freezer it could lose all its moisture or get freezer burn. If you leave food in the fridge or freezer too long, it could not only lose its integrity but it may also become unsafe to eat. Food Safety.gov has two useful charts listing how long certain foods will stay good in both the refrigerator and the freezer. The first chart lists all kinds of commonly refrigerated foods and the second is specifically for eggs and food made with eggs. The website specifies suggested storage guidelines that should keep foods from spoiling and becoming unsafe to eat. Suggested time limits for food in the freezer are for quality only, because “frozen foods remain safe indefinitely. ”You might be surprised at how long or how short some of your favorite foods are supposed to last in the fridge. It’s always a good time to educate yourself on food safety, but with Fourth of July and the inevitable cookouts coming up, now is as good a time as ever to make sure your knowledge is current." }, { "docid": "D85023#0", "title": "http://www.nhs.uk/Livewell/homehygiene/Pages/how-to-store-food-and-leftovers-safely.aspx\nHow to store food and leftovers", "text": "\"Tips on storing food and leftovers to prevent food poisoning, including:fridge storage\"\"use by\"\" datesfreezing foodstoring eggsstoring meat and poultryfreezing and defrostingusing leftoversre-using plastic bags What goes in the fridge?

Charles had moved to Bognor in 1929. It began making munitions for the war on Longford Road in Bognor, but began making experimental refrigerators from 1945. It made its first fridge in 1946, the year the Shripney Road site was obtained, with production beginning in 1947. The name was changed to LEC Refrigeration on 13 December 1954. Around 60% of its products were for the domestic market, with the rest for commercial use. Before 1956, it was selling more products abroad than in the United Kingdom. It was based at the Shripney Works, a fourteen acre site at Bersted in the north of Bognor Regis in Sussex, off Shripney Road ( A29) next to the Bognor Regis branch line. On the other side of the railway, it had 56 acres of land, part of which was used as its own airfield. Charles Purley would be the company's chairman for many years until October 1991." } ]

With a bit of clever planning and the right choice of products, you’ll be able to create a stylish space that’s value for money. Should I change the layout of my bathroom? Nine times out of ten, you’ll want to move fixtures around in your bathroom to create a space that really ‘flow’s and works for you. This will involve more plumbing and electrical work, but is worth the extra expense. To give you a general idea, for a bathroom renovation that includes a mid-range new bath, shower, vanity and toilet along with lights, extractor fan, heated towel rail, underfloor heating, paint and tile floor plus tiles that run 1.2 metres up all walls – you should probably spend between $26,000 and $28,000. A full bathroom makeover that is tiled to the ceiling with complete fit out and tiled shower would be from $35,000." }, { "docid": "D1511172#0", "title": "https://www.creativelightings.com/Waterproof-LED-Strip-Lights-Waterproof-LED-Tape-12vDC-3-s/39.htm\n.", "text": "\"You are here: Home > Water Resistant LED Strip Lights & W/R LED Tape-1210SWater Resistant LED Strip Lights and Water Resistant LED Ribbon Tape are excellent for Automotive, Marine, LED Truck Lights, RV, or battery operated lighting.

Innovators developed synthetic fabrics to overcome some of the inherent limitations of natural fibers. Cotton and linens wrinkle, silk requires delicate handling, and wool shrinks and can be irritating to the touch. Synthetics delivered greater comfort, soil release, broader aesthetic range, dyeing capabilities, abrasion resistance, colorfastness and lower costs. The man-made fibers--and a steadily growing palette of synthetic additives--made it possible to add flame-retardancy, wrinkle and stain resistance, antimicrobial properties and a host of other performance improvements.01of 12Blue Jeans and Denim Fabric Jill Ferry Photography / Getty Images Levi Strauss and Jacob Davis in 1873 invented blue jeans in response to the need for laborers for durable men's workwear. The traditional fabric used in blue jeans is denim, a durable cotton twill textile. Historically, denim was made of silk and wool in Nimes, France (hence the name \"\"de Nim\"\"), and not of the all-cotton variety we are familiar with today.02of 12Fox Fibre®In the 1980s, Sally Fox's passion for natural fibers led her to reinvent the naturally colored cotton used in cotton fabrics, mostly as a response to the pollution caused via the bleaching and dying processes performed in coloring cotton fabrics. Fox crossbred brown cotton, which also produced green cotton, with the aim to develop longer fibers and richer colors. In turn, Fox's organic discoveries help to preserve the environment and can be found in everything from underwear to bed sheets.03of 12GORE-TEX®GORE-TEX® is a registered trademark and the best-known product of W. L. Gore & Associates, Inc. The trademarked product was introduced in 1989. The fabric, based on a Gore-held patent for a membrane technology, is specifically engineered to be a breathable water and wind-proof material." }, { "docid": "D2019840#0", "title": "https://www.superbrightleds.com/cat/led-boat-lights/filter/LED_Color,RGB,136,4638:\nRGB LED Boat Lights and Marine LED Lights", "text": "RGB LED Boat Lights and Marine LED Lights This vast selection of LED lights is perfect for any boat lighting or marine lighting need.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONIn the past several years, environmental concerns have caused a growing number of parents and other caretakers to revert to the use of cloth and/or cotton diapers rather than disposable diapers. Cotton diapers have a disadvantage over disposable diapers, however, in that they do not wick urine or other bodily fluids away from the skin of the wearer, rather tend to envelop the entire surface of the wearer's skin contacting the diaper with the urine or other bodily fluid. These conditions can go unnoticed for several hours or more, exposing the wearer's skin to the harsh and irritating affects of urine and other bodily fluids. A condition commonly known as \"\"diaper rash\"\" may result, making it especially critical that those in charge of caring for the the diaper wearer are alerted to the diaper's wet condition as soon as possible, to minimize the wearer's exposure to irritating fluids. Various treatments have been devised for minimizing diaper rash, including the application of waterproof creams and jellies to the wearer's skin. While such treatments tend to shield the wearer's skin from wetness, they have the distinct disadvantage in precluding the passage of air to the skin, generally recognized as an essential component of the healing process. Thus, it is not uncommon for diaper rash to persist in a chronic or near chronic state for several weeks and even months. The problem is further compounded for diaper wearers who are in institutional environments, such as day care centers, mental institutions, convalescent homes, hospitals and so on, wherein a number of other diaper wearers are simultaneously cared for. As a practical matter, it is not possible for those providing care to such individuals to constantly check each and every diaper wearer on a frequent basis." }, { "docid": "D1965029#0", "title": "http://www.theledlight.com/led-definitions.html\nTheLEDLight.com - What IS ...

This DIY add-on fuse box example shows how you can run two separate sets of fused switches (or up to 6 fused circuits total) for an LED light bar on a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited JK, but really this example will work for any Jeep or 4×4. This DIY waterproof auxiliary fuse box can be set up for up to six fused accessories and can be built for less than $50 in parts and in about one hour. This waterproof auxiliary fuse box can be built for any application for less than $50 in materials. Shown here in a 2014 Jeep Wrangler JK Unlimited used to power auxiliary lighting. The biggest obstacle I had with the JK Wrangler was there’s very limited space under the hood for additional accessory wiring. The only sizable gap I could find was directly on top of the battery. I measured the space and searched for a waterproof box of similar size and came across a BUD Industries waterproof economy box which measured roughly 10.5″ long by 4″ wide by almost 3″ tall. This is a nearly perfect fit for on top of the Jeep Wrangler JK battery, but also a nice size to mount to a firewall or fender for other Jeep Wrangler models or 4×4 applications. Best part is it costs less than $15 and is of very nice quality." }, { "docid": "D1704318#0", "title": "http://homeguides.sfgate.com/install-roofing-tar-paper-23673.html\nHow to Install Roofing Tar Paper", "text": "\"Related Articles How to Install Felt Underlayment for a New Roof Can Roofing Felt Get Wet? How to Install Roll Roofing on Low Slope Roofs What Weight Roofing Felt Is Best? Whether you're building a new house or putting a new roof on your existing house, installing tar paper first helps waterproof the roof and prevent leaks. Also called roof felt or builder's felt, overlapped tar paper creates a water barrier that is your home's last line of defense against the elements if your shingles are damaged by wind, hail or age. Apply tar paper directly to the plain plywood or other material that defines the shape of your roof.1Measure the size of your roof in square feet. Measure the width and height of each section separately. Multiply the width by the height for the square footage of each section, then add the totals.

Share Flipboard Email Print Karen Carrby Bob Strauss Updated April 20, 2017Considering how diverse they are today--nearly 500 genera comprising almost 3,000 named species--we still know surprisingly little about the ultimate origin of snakes. Clearly, these cold-blooded, slithering, legless creatures evolved from four-legged reptilian ancestors, either small, burrowing, landbound lizards (the prevailing theory) or, just possibly, the family of marine reptiles called mosasaurs that appeared in the earth's seas around 100 million years ago. ( See a gallery of prehistoric snake pictures and profiles . ) Why is snake evolution such an enduring mystery? A big part of the problem is that the vast majority of snakes are small, relatively fragile creatures, and their even smaller, even more fragile ancestors are represented in the fossil record by incomplete remains, mostly consisting of scattered vertebrae. Paleontologists have discovered putative snake fossils dating as far back as 150 million years, to the late Jurassic period, but the traces are so evanescent as to be practically useless. ( Further complicating matters, snake-like amphibians called \"\"aistopods\"\" appear in the fossil record over 300 million years ago, the most notable genus being Ophiderpeton; these were completely unrelated to modern snakes.) Recently, though, solid fossil evidence has emerged for Eophis, a 10-inch-long middle Jurassic snake native to England. The Early Snakes of the Cretaceous Period Needless to say, the key event in snake evolution was the gradual withering away of these reptiles' front and hind limbs. Creationists like to claim that there are no such \"\"transitional forms\"\" in the fossil record, but in the case of prehistoric snakes they're dead wrong: paleontologists have identified no less than four separate genera, dating back to the Cretaceous period, that were equipped with stubby, vestigial hind legs." }, { "docid": "D1036496#0", "title": "http://www.liveanimalslist.com/reptiles/lizards.php\nLizards, Lizard Facts, Lizard Pictures and Types", "text": "Lizards, Lizard Facts, Lizard Pictures and Types By: Maria Saleem \| 09 , Feb 2013 \| Lizards Ask/Tell About This Lizards Lizards are members of the reptilian class in the animal kingdom. They belong to the family lacertidae and are also known, scientifically, as lacertilia. More than five thousand of their species exist across various parts of the world. The only regions on the planet where lacertilia are not found are the cold Antarctica and some oceanic islands. The evolutionary history of these reptiles is traced back to around two hundred million years. Over the years, this evolutionary process led to the creation of a wide diversity resulting in five thousand species found on earth today. All of the species of lacertilia are cold blooded and have tails. Most of them also possess scales which is a typical trait of all reptiles. All lacertilia have spines which make them a member of the group of vertebrates.

They inhabit all of the continents apart from Antarctica, from sea level to heights of 16,500 feet (5000m). Lizards live in diverse environments and are the most geographically widespread of the reptiles. That makes them the largest group of reptiles with about 5000 species. They have walked the earth for some 200 million years. Reptiles have the following physical features: they have vertebrate, lungs, and scales or plates. They are cold-blooded, getting all of their heating from the environment (the sun) which can be deadly during cold spells. What could be good about that? Well, this allows the reptiles to eat much less than a mammal of the same weight might. In the desert, for example, this might be useful in terms of competing for food." }, { "docid": "D1690954#0", "title": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detroit_Zoological_Park\nDetroit Zoo", "text": "\"Detroit Zoo From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Detroit Zoological Park)navigation search This article contains content that is written like an advertisement.

Classified with lizards in the order Squamata, snakes represent a lizard that, over the course of evolution, has undergone structural reduction, simplification, and loss as well as specialization. All snakes lack external limbs, but not all legless reptiles are snakes. Certain burrowing lizards may have only front or hind limbs or be completely legless. Unlike lizards, snakes lack movable eyelids, which results in a continuous and often disconcerting stare. Snakes also lack external ear openings. Internally, they have lost the urinary bladder.

[ 2] Like all squamates, snakes are ectothermic, amniote vertebrates covered in overlapping scales. Many species of snakes have skulls with several more joints than their lizard ancestors, enabling them to swallow prey much larger than their heads with their highly mobile jaws. To accommodate their narrow bodies, snakes' paired organs (such as kidneys) appear one in front of the other instead of side by side, and most have only one functional lung. Some species retain a pelvic girdle with a pair of vestigial claws on either side of the cloaca. Lizards have evolved elongate bodies without limbs or with greatly reduced limbs about twenty five times independently via convergent evolution, leading to many lineages of legless lizards. [ 3] Legless lizards resemble snakes, but several common groups of legless lizards have eyelids and external ears, which snakes lack, although this rule is not universal (see Amphisbaenia, Dibamidae, and Pygopodidae ). Living snakes are found on every continent except Antarctica, and on most smaller land masses; exceptions include some large islands, such as Ireland, Iceland, Greenland, the Hawaiian archipelago, and the islands of New Zealand, and many small islands of the Atlantic and central Pacific oceans.

Anguis fragilis Scientific classification Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Class: Reptilia Order: Squamata Family: Anguidae Genus: Anguis Species: A. fragilis Binomial name Anguis fragilis Linnaeus, 1758Anguis fragilis, the slowworm, [1] is a legless lizard native to Eurasia. It is also called a blindworm, deaf adder or, regionally, a long-cripple; to distinguish it from the Peloponnese slowworm, it is also sometimes called a common slowworm. The 'blind' in 'blindworm' refers to the lizard's small eyes, similar to a blindsnake (although the slowworm's eyes are functional). Slowworms are semifossorial [2] (burrowing) lizards, spending much of the time hiding underneath objects. The skin of slowworms is smooth with scales that do not overlap one another. Like many other lizards, slowworms autotomize, meaning that they have the ability to shed their tails to escape predators. While the tail regrows, it does not reach its original length. They are common in gardens and can be encouraged to enter and help remove pest insects by placing black plastic or a piece of tin on the ground." }, { "docid": "D527273#0", "title": "https://www.reference.com/pets-animals/snake-eggs-look-like-ec01be9cb71726bf\nWhat Do Snake Eggs Look Like?", "text": "\"Pets & Animals Reptiles Snakes Q: What Do Snake Eggs Look Like? A: Quick Answer Snake eggs tend to be more oblong than bird eggs, and they have a soft, leathery texture rather than a hard shell.

Snake eggs also tend to be laid in larger batches, or clutches, than bird eggs. Black rat snakes, for example, can lay as many as 30 eggs in a single clutch.

Two species of this family occur in the Old World: the slow worm (Anguis fragilis) and the European legless lizard (Ophisaurus apodus). Although many members of this family lack limbs, this is not a characteristic of every anguid; many American anguid lizards have four well-developed limbs. European legless lizards, also called glass lizards, range from the Balkans as far as Istria (peninsula in northeastern Italy) and northeast Bulgaria. They are also found in Crimea, Caucasus and parts of southwest and central Asia. Habitat The European legless lizard is normally found in fairly dry habitats, often frequenting rocky hillsides with some cover. These lizards can also be found in dry stone walls, embankments and stone piles. They are diurnal and crepuscular, and are often active after rainfall. Length and Weight The European legless lizard is the largest lizard of its family, its average length (including tail) being 2-3 feet (.6-.9 m).

Squamates include lizards, snakes, and worm-lizards. Two characteristics that unite the squamates. The first is that they shed their skin periodically. Some squamates, such as snakes, shed their skin in one piece. Other squamates, such as many lizards, shed their skin in patches. In contrast, non-squamate reptiles regenerate their scales by other means—for example crocodiles shed a single scale at a time while turtles do not shed the scales that cover their carapace and instead add new layers from beneath. The second characteristic shared by squamates is their uniquely jointed skulls and jaws, which are both strong and flexible. The extraordinary jaw mobility of squamates enables them to open their mouths very wide and in doing so, consume large prey." }, { "docid": "D2226436#0", "title":

If you think that having no legs causes mobility problems for a snake, you've never seen how fast a snake can move in most environments. On our snake classification page we see that lizards and snakes belong to the same taxonomic order. The main feature separating lizards and snakes is not that lizards have legs and snakes don't. After all, some lizards, such as the California Legless Lizard, Anniella pulchra , have no legs, while among snakes members of the Boa and Python family bear vestigial hind legs in the form of \"\"spurs\"\" on their rear ends. The main thing separating lizards from snakes is also one of the snakes' most important adaptations.

A few years ago, Samuel purchased the turtles without realizing how quickly they would breed and outgrow their housing. Long work hours, a new baby and a plethora of family commitments absolutely made keeping the turtles impractical. An unfortunate combination of ego and fears that someone might ask about the turtles' poor physical condition compelled Samuel to rationalize that releasing them in the wild was the best course of action.

Tannins are just as high in wine, and oxalates are just as high in spinach, but these are not excluded from Paleo. The \"\"anti-nutrient\"\" higher in legumes than other foods are lectins, natural phytonutrients that plants use as insecticides to protect themselves. Lectins break down the membranes of hurtful invaders: cancer cells (reducing prostate, colon and other cancers), fungi, bacteria and viruses (even the HIV-1 retrovirus) is part of the reason that tomatoes, corn, whole grain rice, wheat, oats, nuts, sunflower seeds, peaches, mangos, grapes, cinnamon, citrus, berries, tea and most other plant foods are healthy. All of these contain significant amounts of lectins. When there are VERY large amounts of lectins in our food, we start to feel the effects of their hurting the membranes of the cells lining our intestine the same way they hurt cancer cells and bacteria. As with everything in life, too much of a good thing is a bad thing. We have known for over half a century that lentils and beans have the highest levels of lectins and therefore can make us sick if we eat them raw [\"\"Toxicity of raw kidney beans\"\", Jaffe WG, Experientia 5 (1949) 81]. We also know that cooking beans for 15 min at 100 C or 2 hrs at 80 C completely denatures lectins, and canning beans is just as effective, meaning cooked and canned legumes are not only completely safe but their residual lectin levels fight cancer and fungal / bacterial / viral infection [Thompson LU et al, J Food Science 48 (1983) 235; Dhurandhar NV & Chang KC, J Food Science 55 (1990) 470; Xia L & Ng TB, J Chromatography 844 (2006) 213].

If you do a google search on it, most of the “information” is marketing, about how it’s well-tolerated, well-digested and hypoallergenic. But is it really? Looking on medline however there is very little research to back up any of these claims. There is one chemical study which suggests that it might be suitable for infant formula, and another short trial in non-anemic healthy women, but nothing much else. With regard to the last trial, it’s important to point out that many vegans are in fact iron-deficient, despite the fact that their diet might otherwise contain sufficient iron, so it is difficult to say if this data has any significance for the intended user. Far from being a whole food, pea protein isolate is a highly purified chemical extract, dramatically increasing the protein content of the unprocessed pea (around 10-15%) to upwards of 90% in the isolate." }, { "docid": "D677032#0", "title": "http://www.meandmydiabetes.com/2011/12/03/loren-cordain-leaky-gut-whole-grain-and-even-potatoes/\nLoren Cordain â Leaky Gut, Whole Grains, Potatoes & Autism", "text": "Loren Cordain – Leaky Gut, Whole Grains, Potatoes & Autismby Shelley • December 3, 2011Loren Cordain talks about Grains, Paleo Eating, Autism and why potatoes can cause leaky gut Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available.

Lectins are a kind of protein that can bind to sugar. They’re sometimes referred to as antinutrients since they can reduce the body’s ability to absorb nutrients. Lectins are thought to have evolved as a natural defense in plants, essentially as a toxin that deters animals from eating the plants ( 1 ). Lectins are found in many different plant- and animal-based foods, yet only about 30% of the foods you eat contain significant amounts ( 2 )." }, { "docid": "D3140321#0", "title": "https://www.superfoods-for-superhealth.com/mung-bean-sprouts.html\nMung Bean Sprouts, A Raw or Cooked Plant-Based Protein", "text": "\"Mung Bean Sprouts, A Raw or Cooked Plant-Based Protein Mung bean sprouts come from the green mung bean variety commonly used in Indian cuisine when making curries and dals. While most cooked recipes utilize hulled yellow mung beans or split mung beans, for sprouting purposes the whole unhulled green legume is the only type that will actually sprout. This is because the seed is still viable and contains living energy necessary for the sprouting process. In recent decades, consuming these raw sprouts has become an increasingly popular way to eat them, usually served in small amounts atop meals or salads. Compared to other bean selections, mung, lentil and green pea shoots create the best tasting sprouts and are considerably more digestible than sprouting other larger legume types, like garbanzo, black bean or pinto, which contain a greater amount of raffinose-type oligosaccharides or other complex sugars that can be difficult for the body to break down. These harder beans, if not properly prepared, are notorious for causing digestive turmoil and flatulence producing side-effects and, in our opinion, should always be soaked, rinsed and cooked before consuming to neutralize and remove various \"\"antinutrients\"\" that inhibit their protein absorption. Our #1 favorite way to prepare cooked beans, like garbanzo and black bean, is to ferment them as tempeh with a Rhizopus oligosporus / oryzae starter culture. This fermentation process considerably enhances flavor as well as nutrient profile and essentially predigests the proteins, making the amino acid content easier to assimilate. Enzyme-rich fermented beans are also less likely to produce intestinal gas, since the tempeh cultures consume most of the offending sugars.

According to a recent medical review, when comparing sprouted seeds (in this case sprouted grains) to unsprouted grain seeds, the unsprouted grains had “lower protein content, deficiency of certain essential amino acids, lower protein and starch availabilities, and the presence of certain anti nutrients.” ( 1 ). Many different types of “seed” foods can be sprouted, and some that you probably don’t even realize are seeds. Grains, for example, are really the seeds of cereal grasses. Sprouting seeds makes them edible even when raw, but sprouted seeds can also be used for baked and cooked recipes too. Sprouted flours are used to bake (for example in bread, muffin, or panache recipes), add to salads (for example sprouted nuts or beans), as well as in stir-fries, soups and stews. Sprouted foods are a prominent ingredient in many raw food diets, but they have plenty of benefits for people following any type of diet. Sprouting grains, nuts, beans and seeds has been a common practice in places like Eastern Asian and Europe for literally thousands of years.

Antinutrients are natural or synthetic compounds found in a variety of foods — especially grains, beans, legumes and nuts — that interfere with the absorption of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients. They can even get in the way of the digestive enzymes, which are key for proper absorption. Antinutrients can also be found in plant roots, vegetables, leaves and fruits, although these are at much lower levels and usually have benefits as opposed to mostly harmful effects. Many different types of “seed” foods contain antinutrients like phytic acid, leptins and saponins naturally, including some that you probably don’t even realize are seeds (for example, all grains are really the seeds of cereal grasses). The reason they contain these compounds that bind to vitamins and minerals, making them unabsorbable, is largely as a defense mechanism. Their antinutrients help repel pests, bugs and other predators so the seeds are able to live on and reproduce. The good news? Not all antinutrients are bad, first off, and secondly, you can help lower the content of the kinds that are. Polyphenols, for example, are a type of antinutrient that can actually be beneficial (when eaten in appropriate doses), so it’s not always cut-and-dry as to the types we should avoid." }, { "docid": "D808697#0", "title": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sprouting\nSprouting", "text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search\"\"Bean sprout\"\" redirects here.

Lectins offer a way for molecules to stick together without getting the immune system involved, which can influence cell-cell interaction. Lectins are abundant in raw legumes and grains, and most commonly found in the part of the seed that becomes the leaves when the plant sprouts, aka the cotyledon, but also on the seed coat. They’re also found in dairy products and certain vegetables. While lectin content in food is fairly constant, the genetic altering of plants has created some fluctuations.

Living seeds release these nutrients upon sprouting to naturally help the plant develop during the beginning stages of its growth cycle. This results in a highly nourishing food that is full of fiber as well as a fresh lively flavor and texture. The concept of sprouting seeds from grains and vegetables has been recorded to some degree throughout human history, with references in the Book of Daniel as well as evidence of use among ancient Chinese physicians who were believed to have used them to heal and cure illnesses.

The primary stems of white clover usually die before the second year, and the life of the plant depends upon the stolons and their haphazard roots. The white clovers Trifolium repens L of the United States can be classified in three general groups — small, intermediate and large. The small white clover is probably native to an area and often is referred to as wild white clover. Most of the white clovers sold in this country as common white clover belong to the intermediate group. Dutch white clover, which is a strain of the species, belongs to this group, as does Louisiana Sl. The varieties Pilgrim, Merit, Regal and Tillman belong to the large group and often are referred to as ladino clovers. Ladino has at different times been designated as a variety (in Italy), as an ecotype of white clover and as a completely different kind of clover.

While most cooked recipes utilize hulled yellow mung beans or split mung beans, for sprouting purposes the whole unhulled green legume is the only type that will actually sprout. This is because the seed is still viable and contains living energy necessary for the sprouting process. In recent decades, consuming these raw sprouts has become an increasingly popular way to eat them, usually served in small amounts atop meals or salads. Compared to other bean selections, mung, lentil and green pea shoots create the best tasting sprouts and are considerably more digestible than sprouting other larger legume types, like garbanzo, black bean or pinto, which contain a greater amount of raffinose-type oligosaccharides or other complex sugars that can be difficult for the body to break down. These harder beans, if not properly prepared, are notorious for causing digestive turmoil and flatulence producing side-effects and, in our opinion, should always be soaked, rinsed and cooked before consuming to neutralize and remove various \"\"antinutrients\"\" that inhibit their protein absorption. Our #1 favorite way to prepare cooked beans, like garbanzo and black bean, is to ferment them as tempeh with a Rhizopus oligosporus / oryzae starter culture. This fermentation process considerably enhances flavor as well as nutrient profile and essentially predigests the proteins, making the amino acid content easier to assimilate.

Instead, perhaps they’ll find carrots which they don’t happen to like, and die trying to find their way back to those tasty tomatoes. How It Works (Legume <- Leaf <- Fruit <- Root)I like this system that breaks the various garden plants into four groups based on their nutritional needs: leaf (nitrogen), fruit (phosphorus), root (potassium), and legume (fixes nitrogen). In this system, the leaf plants go where legumes were last year, because legumes fix nitrogen in the soil, and leaf plants need large amounts of nitrogen. The fruits follow the leaf plants because they need phosphorus, and too much nitrogen causes them not to have fruits." }, { "docid": "D2886466#0", "title": "https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20061128174824AAMSG6H\nAre peas considered a vegetable or a legume?", "text": "Health Diet & Fitness Are peas considered a vegetable or a legume?

Paris The paleolithic diet is a controversial one, mainly for its basis in a few debatable theories, the most important of which being that modern humans are adapted to the diet of early humans from the Paleolithic era, and that our genetics have not changed since then. As such, a paleo diet consists of food that would have been naturally accessible to early humans, ruling out all processed foods and other products obtained only through technologically advanced agricultural means. So what is there left to eat for those who have chosen a paleo diet, in this modern day and age? Stick with this guide, and we’ll go over the extensive paleo food list for people who have chosen this diet for themselves, including food both approved and disapproved for this literally ancient diet. Once you’ve decided whether or not you can live without certain foods, you can get started with the paleolithic diet with this course. Five Food Groups vs. Paleo Food List Most of us are familiar with the five major food groups, as put forward by the US Department of Agriculture. These five groups, consisting of proteins, dairy, fruit, vegetables, and grains, are meant to categorize the different types of food necessary for people to maintain a healthy and balanced diet. If you subscribe to the supposed health benefits of the paleo diet, then the USDA’s food pyramid goes out the window. Well, the grains and dairy do at least. Paleolithic humans did not consume dairy or grains, because they were living in a pre-agricultural era." }, { "docid": "D492057#0", "title": "https://www.reference.com/health/food-group-legumes-belong-cb8f71c673159808\nInto which food group do legumes belong?", "text": "\"Health Nutrition & Diets Q: Into which food group do legumes belong?

Full Answer Protein-rich legumes are vegetables that offer a good source of essential protein to individuals who don't eat meat, fish and eggs and additional protein to those who do. They are also counted in the meat and beans group — foods that supply protein. They offer the benefits of foods in the vegetable foods (low fat and high fiber) to those who do get their protein from meat, fish and eggs.

Choosing a vegetarian diet can give your child—and your whole family—the opportunity to learn to enjoy a variety of wonderful, nutritious foods. Children raised on fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes grow up to be slimmer and healthier and even live longer than their meat-eating friends. It is much easier to build a nutritious diet from plant foods than from animal products, which contain saturated fat, cholesterol, and other substances that growing children can do without. As for essential nutrients, plant foods are the preferred source because they provide sufficient energy and protein packaged with other health-promoting nutrients such as fiber, antioxidant vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals. Complete Nutrition for Children Vegetarian diets provide excellent nutrition for all stages of childhood, from birth through adolescence. Of course, an infant’s nutritional needs are best met by his or her mother’s breast milk. It’s nature’s way of boosting the baby’s immunity as well as his or her psychological well-being.

Rabbits, hares, squirrels and other small mammals, such as marmots and prairie dogs, compose over 40 percent of their diet. Sometimes, they also feed on smaller mammals like rats, mice, lemmings and gerbils. Among carnivores, golden eagles most often hunt foxes, and they also sometimes eat weasels, martens, cats, otters and badgers. Birds commonly consumed by golden eagles include grouse, pheasants, ptarmigans, partridges, pigeons and geese. Golden eagles usually hunt the young of ungulates like deer, sheep and goats because they are unable to carry away large prey. However, they have been known to fly low, grip the backs or necks of larger ungulates, sustain the hold until the larger mammals collapse and feed on the spot. The most common reptiles consumed are various species of snakes, but golden eagles also feed on large lizards. When golden eagles hunt tortoises, they fly 60 to 70 feet above the ground and drop the tortoises, hoping to shatter their shells. In some areas, golden eagles feed on salmon, trout, pike and other fish." }, { "docid": "D3284843#0", "title": "http://qa.answers.com/Q/What_is_a_food_chain_in_the_tundra_biome\nWhat is a food chain in the tundra biome?", "text": "Answers.com ® Wiki Answers ® Categories Science Biology Ecology and Bionomics Ecosystems Biomes Tundra What is a food chain in the tundra biome?

Harold Hanka, The Westerly Sun December 18, 2017 01:39AMBy Cynthia Drummond, Sun staff writer WESTERLY — Snowy owls are arriving in New England in large numbers this winter in an irregular phenomenon known as an “irruption. ”There are approximately 18 of the large, white owls currently in Rhode Island, and several of them have been seen along Westerly’s shoreline. Rachel Farrell, a member of the Rhode Island Avian Records Committee, said the birds, from Ungava in far northern Quebec, are concentrated this year in New England and around the Great Lakes. “This is the largest irruption since the irruption of 2013-2014,” she said. Paradoxically, the reason the owls leave the North is the consequence of too many lemmings — the owls’ primary food.

For tundra plants and animals, survival is not just about battling the harsh environment of this biome, but is equally about being a part of its complex food web. Region of extreme conditions One of the most fascinating places in the world, the tundra region is predominantly characterized by extremely cold climate and scarce vegetation. With an average temperature of -25° F, it is undoubtedly the coldest of all biomes on the planet. Owing to its characteristic extreme conditions, the tundra is inhabited by a few plants and animals, each having a crucial role to play in its complex food web. As most of the land in tundra is covered by permafrost (i.e., permanently frozen ground), you seldom see deep-rooted plants growing in this region. Basically, the tundra vegetation is dominated by shrubs, grasses and perennial forbs, like Reindeer moss, Arctic willow, bearberry, Labrador tea, tufted saxifrage, etc. The considerably lengthy list of animals, on the other hand, includes mammals, like gray wolf, reindeer (caribou), polar bear, and the Arctic fox, as well as birds, like penguins, snow geese, and snowy owls. With freezing temperature and scanty vegetation making it one of the harshest places on the planet, it is surprising to see all these plants and animals thriving in this region.

By Joe Smith January 21, 2014Follow Joe This snowy owl nest is lined with 70+ dead lemmings. Photo: Christine Blais-Soucy A stunning photo is making the rounds on the web of a snowy owl nest wreathed by 70+ lemmings. The picture tells the story of rich times for one snowy owl; it had so much prey at its disposal that it couldn’t stop itself killing more rodents than it could eat. This picture presents a hypothesis for this winter’s snowy owl invasion. Here’s the idea: a superabundance of lemmings occurring in summer 2013 during the owls’ nesting season resulted in high nesting success. No baby owls went hungry and a superabundance of owls fledged. Seeking to space themselves out, many of these young, well-fed owls are now invading unusually southern latitudes throughout North America. At this point, we can’t be sure what has brought all of these owls south, but we do know that lemmings play a critical role in influencing snowy owl breeding distribution and nesting success.

There are 5 subspecies of arctic fox that inhabit tundra throughout the Arctic Circle. Arctic fox can be found in Iceland, Greenland, Northern Europe, Russia, Canada and Alaska. These animals are numerous everywhere, except in Scandinavia. They were overhunted in the past because of their beautiful pelt. Even though arctic foxes are protected by law today, their number still drops due to climate changes and because of the expansion of the range of red fox (it hunts the same prey like arctic fox). Interesting Arctic fox Facts: Arctic fox is small animal that can reach 26 inches in length and 6.5 to 17 pounds of weight. Bushy tail is usually 13.7 inches long. Arctic fox is covered with thick white fur during the winter and grey-brownish fur during the summer.

Hi Harlan,The Polar Bear is currently the top preditor above the Brooks Range in the Arctic and feeds primarily on seals. Polar Bears will also scavenge other dead sea animals such as whales. The Arctic fox is primarily a scavenger and will also feed on bird eggs, nestlings, voles and ground squirrels. It is hard to predict what will happen if the Arctic continues to warm. Grizzly Bears and red foxes have been seen duing the summer north of the Brooks range. These are potential competitors for the Polar Bear and Arctic Fox.

[ 1] [7] It is well adapted to living in cold environments, and is best known for its thick, warm fur that is also used as camouflage. On average, Arctic foxes only live 3–4 years in the wild. [ 8] Its body length ranges from 46 to 68 cm (18 to 27 in), with a generally rounded body shape to minimize the escape of body heat. The Arctic fox preys on many small creatures such as lemmings, voles, ringed seal pups, fish, waterfowl, and seabirds. It also eats carrion, berries, seaweed, and insects and other small invertebrates. Arctic foxes form monogamous pairs during the breeding season and they stay together to raise their young in complex underground dens. Occasionally, other family members may assist in raising their young. Natural predators of the Arctic fox are the red fox, golden eagles, wolverines, wolves, and grizzly bears.

Below you will learn more about these fascinating creatures. Lemur history Madagascar lacks the dominant form of primate distributed worldwide, those of the suborder Haplorhini (monkeys, chimps, gorillas, and Homo sapiens). Instead, their niche has been filled by an older group of primates, the lemurs. Lemurs belong to the sub-order Strepsirhini together with bushbabies, lorises, and pottos which—like the original lemurs—are nocturnal, insectivorous primates characterized by a small body, a long nose, and large eyes. Lemurs have an interesting evolutionary history and the only reason they still exist today is because of Madagascar's isolation. Until around 160 million years ago, Madagascar was attached to the African mainland as part of the super continent Gondwanaland (formed of Africa, South America, Australia, Antarctica, India, and Madagascar). As Gondwanaland broke apart, Madgascar moved away from Africa.

Aye-aye (Daubentonia madagascariensis), Madagascar by Frank Vassen cc2.0With their dark fur, large golden eyes that glow in the dark and unusual looking claws which resemble the overgrown nails of a witch, the aye-aye is considered one of the world’s ugliest creatures. Some even find it terrifying. The aye-aye, however, is actually one fascinating animal. Let’s get to know it better.1. The aye-aye is the largest nocturnal primate in the world. The aye-aye is a primate, which means it is related to apes and monkeys and to us, humans. Furthermore, it is the largest nocturnal primate. You see, most primates are actually diurnal or active during the day but there are some that are nocturnal or active at night and of them, the aye-aye grows the largest." }, { "docid": "D789366#0", "title": "https://www.thefreedictionary.com/lemur\nlemur", "text": "lemur Also found in: Thesaurus, Medical, Legal, Acronyms, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia .le·mur (lē′mər)n.

The Fossa belongs to the Malagasy Carnivores group which are thought to have descended from Mongoose-like ancestors that arrived on Madagascar from Africa up to 24 million years ago. The Fossa is not only one of the most ancient of the eight species found on the island but it is also the largest, meaning that the Fossa is Madagascar's largest mammalian predator. However, due to the cat-like appearance of the Fossa it was believed to be a primitive species of feline until recently. Sadly like a number of the unique animal species found in Madagascar today though, the Fossa is incredibly rare and is now considered to be endangered in its natural habitat primarily due to habitat loss. Fossa Anatomy and Appearance The Fossa is the largest land predator on the island of Madagascar with some individuals growing to nearly two meters in length from their snout to the tip of their long and slender tail. The tail of the Fossa is around the same length as its body and plays a crucial role in helping the animal to balance whilst it is leaping through the trees. The Fossa has short but dense red to dark brown fur and a small cat-like head and a dog-like snout, with large forward facing eyes and small, rounded ears. Despite being related to Mongooses, the Fossa remarkably has a number of feline features including curved, retractable claws and slightly webbed feet which both help the Fossa when it is moving about amongst the branches.

However, the more ancient roots of many human characteristics are revealed through the study of a broader array of living anthropoids and the increasingly dense fossil record of the earliest anthropoid radiations. Genomic data and fossils of early primates in Asia and Africa clarify relationships among the major clades of primates. Progress in comparative anatomy, genomics, and molecular biology point to key changes in sensory ecology and brain organization that ultimately set the stage for the emergence of the human lineage.primate Haplorhini Strepsirrhini human evolution phylogeny Human evolution did not begin 6–8 million years ago with the phylogenetic split between the chimpanzee and human lineages. Although the ape–human transition is of tremendous interest to specialists and the general public, many key genetic events and adaptive shifts leading to the origin of humans had already been set in motion long before this split. The seeds of these changes can be identified in the earlier branches of the primate family tree, many millions of years in the past. Changes in sensory ecology, increases in brain size, and reorganization of the brain's components set the stage for the development of language and for many of our other exceptional cognitive abilities. Recent well-publicized descriptions of fossil primates from Africa and Eurasia have reignited interest in the origins of Anthropoidea—monkeys, apes, and humans. Fossil discoveries are expanding our understanding of the diversity and biogeography of this clade. Developments in molecular phylogenetics are establishing a phylogenetic framework of living primates against which hypotheses about relationships of fossils can be tested." }, { "docid": "D335433#0", "title": "http://wwnorton.com/college/anthro/bioanth/ch5/chap5.htm\n.", "text": "\"Chapter 5: Introduction to the Primates Meet Your Relatives Why study primates? By studying primates, we're essentially studying ourselves. The primate order includes humans and our closest living biological relatives,as well as all extinct primate and human ancestors. In addition to providing evolutionary insights into the physiological and behavioral evolution of the human lineage, primates exhibit an extraordinarily diverse array of behaviors and social systems, which allows them to exploit many habitats within the tropics, ranging from savanna-woodland to rain forest. Some species, such as the Japanese macaque ( Macaca fuscata ), have adapted to the snowy winters of the island of Hokkaido. The rather cosmopolitan status that the primate lineage boasts is one of a number of reasons to study their adaptive strategies in the context of evolution. Finally, the cognitive capacity of primates provides a window into the evolution of intelligence, providing deeper insights into the machinery that drives our own behavior and thought processes. Common characteristics of primates The following characters distinguish the primate order from other mammalian groups. While all primates do not necessarily have every one of these traits, all primates have trait complexes that include a preponderance of the traits listed below. This is because some groups have lost some of these traits or developed others over the course of their evolutionary history.opposable thumb and big toeassists in grasping and manipulation behaviorsadaptation to arboreal lifestyleflat nails instead of claws, with dermatoglyphs (fingerprints) on fingers and toeshindlimb-dominated locomotionrelative reduction in the olfactory sensory system (smaller snouts) as compared to other mammalian ordersincreased reliance on visual sensationeyes are large and exhibit a high degree of frontation, or placement toward the front of the facefrontation increases overlap of visual fields, increasing binocular visioneach sends visual information to both hemispheres of the brain, enhancing depth perception and producing stereoscopic visiontendency toward smaller litter size, longer gestation times, and extended period of juvenile growthincreased period of maternal investment and carerelatively large brainsreduced number of teeth, with a maximum of two incisors, one canine, three premolars, and three molars in each jaw quadrant Taxonomy of Living Primates The primate order is generally subdivided into four groups, which are colloquially the prosimians, New World monkeys, Old World monkeys, and apes." }, { "docid": "D1618469#0", "title": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aye-aye\nAye-aye", "text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search This article is about the lemur species.

Since a coup in 2009, conservation groups have repeatedly found evidence of illegal logging, and hunting of lemurs has emerged as a new threat.

Aye-aye (Daubentonia madagascariensis) NT© Nick Garbutt/Nature Picture Library1Overview The highly distinctive aye-aye is the world’s largest nocturnal primate. It has a number of extreme morphological adaptations to its unusual feeding habits, making it one of the most bizarre-looking animals on the planet. The species is sometimes referred to as Madagascar’s answer to the woodpecker, due to its ability to detect and rip out grubs from hollow branches. Like other Malagasy lemurs the aye-aye is at risk from the destruction of its forest home for agriculture and development. Local superstitious beliefs have also played a role in its decline, as it is regarded as an evil omen in many areas and killed upon sight.

It is the world's largest nocturnal [5] primate, and is characterized by its unusual method of finding food: it taps on trees to find grubs, then gnaws holes in the wood using its forward slanting incisors to create a small hole in which it inserts its narrow middle finger to pull the grubs out. This foraging method is called percussive foraging, and takes up 5–41% of foraging time. [ 6] [7] The only other animal species known to find food in this way is the striped possum.

The word lemur derives from the word lemures (ghosts or spirits) from Roman mythology and was first used to describe a slender loris due to its nocturnal habits and slow pace, but was later applied to the primates on Madagascar. As with other strepsirrhine primates, such as lorises, pottos, and galagos (bush babies), lemurs share resemblance with basal primates. In this regard, lemurs are often confused with ancestral primates, when in actuality, lemurs did not give rise to monkeys and apes, but evolved independently. [ 5]Due to Madagascar's highly seasonal climate, lemur evolution has produced a level of species diversity rivaling that of any other primate group.

Compiled by the Primate Specialist Group of IUCN’s Species Survival Commission (SSC), Bristol Zoological Society, the International Primatological Society (IPS), and Conservation International (CI), new additions to the list include Philippine Tarsier ( Tarsius syrichta) and Lavasoa Mountains Dwarf Lemur ( Cheirogaleus lavasoensis ), both of which are threatened by habitat loss. The report, which is updated every two years, highlights the plight of 25 species including the Hainan Gibbon ( Nomascus hainanus ), of which there are thought to be just 25 individuals left in the wild, and the Northern Sportive Lemurs ( Lepilemur septentrionalis) of which just around 50 remain in their native Madagascar. The main threats to primates are habitat destruction, particularly from the burning and clearing of tropical forests – which results in the release of greenhouse gases causing climate change – the hunting of primates for food, and the illegal wildlife trade. “The world’s primate species are at great risk with more than half of the species threatened with extinction on The IUCN Red List,” says Dr Simon Stuart, Chair of the IUCN Species Survival Commission. “ We are currently re-assessing all primates and there is great concern that the situation may be getting even worse for many of these iconic and important species. Locally implemented projects to protect the Northern Sportive Lemur and Alaotra Gentle Lemur were announced in October by SOS – Save Our Species – an initiative managed by IUCN, yet much remains to be done for other species. ”The list, which has been drawn up by primatologists working in the field who have first-hand knowledge of the causes of threats to primates, includes five primate species from Madagascar, five from Africa, 10 from Asia, and five from Central and South America, all of which are in need of most urgent conservation action. “This research highlights the extent of the danger facing many of the world’s primates,” says Dr Christoph Schwitzer, Director of Conservation at Bristol Zoological Society and a world-leading primatologist. “ We hope it will focus people’s attention on these lesser known primate species, some of which most people will probably have never heard of, such as the Lavasoa Mountains Dwarf Lemur from Madagascar - a species only discovered two years ago - or the Roloway Monkey from Ghana and Ivory Coast, which we believe is on the very verge of extinction." }, { "docid": "D1644684#0", "title": "http://www.zooborns.com/zooborns/sacramento-zoo/\nSacramento Zoo", "text": "\"Sacramento Zoo Rocket Man Touches Down at Sacramento Zoo May 05, 2016Shani, a six-year-old Masai Giraffe at the Sacramento Zoo, gave birth to a healthy 163-pound male calf on April 10.

The composition of Madagascar 's wildlife reflects the fact that the island has been isolated for about 88 million years. The prehistoric breakup of the supercontinent Gondwana separated the Madagascar-Antarctica-India landmass from the Africa-South America landmass around 135 million years ago. Madagascar later split from India about 88 million years ago, allowing plants and animals on the island to evolve in relative isolation.

More importantly, however, they are one of the richest sources of plant-based protein available. A daily staple throughout history, legumes have supplied the bulk of protein for numerous cultures. Yet in much of our western culture, animal foods have largely displaced beans. Beans, however, are regaining their popularity. Concerned with their health and fitness, more and more people are choosing beans over meat. And why not! Beans provide us with the protein our bodies need for repair without saddling us with the cholesterol and fats of meats. Beans are also a good source of calcium, iron, some B vitamins, and fiber. Sprouted beans manufacture many other important nutrients, including a hefty dose of vitamin C. Beans also release glucose into our bloodstream more slowly than other foods, giving steady energy and providing a valuable food for people with diabetes and hypoglycemia." }, { "docid": "D1508446#0", "title": "http://wholesomebabyfood.momtastic.com/legumeslentilsbabyfoodrecipes.htm\nFeeding Your Baby Lentils, Legumes and Dried Beans for Baby Food", "text": "Feeding Your Baby Lentils, Legumes and Dried Beans for Baby Food Age for Introducing Lentils, Legumes and Dried Beans 8-10 months Lentils may be small but they sure do pack a lot of nutritional whallops.

However, many experts agree that a well-planned vegetarian or vegan diet can provide you with all the nutrients you need ( 1, 2, 3, 4 ). That said, certain plant foods contain significantly more protein than others. And higher-protein diets can promote muscle strength, satiety and weight loss ( 5, 6, 7 ). Here are 17 plant foods that contain a high amount of protein per serving.1. Seitan Seitan is a popular protein source for many vegetarians and vegans. It's made from gluten, the main protein in wheat. Unlike many soy-based mock meats, it resembles the look and texture of meat when cooked. Also known as wheat meat or wheat gluten, it contains about 25 grams of protein per 3.5 ounces (100 grams).

Colors range from yellow and red to green, brown, and even black. Lentils are inexpensive, highly nutritious, and can be stored for a long time without refrigeration. These features have made lentils a staple food in many cultures across the globe. Nutritional Value Lentils contain the third highest amount of protein of any legume, listed only below soybeans and hemp. The high protein content and low cost have made them an indispensable food item in many third world countries and among vegetarian populations. Although lentils are not considered a complete protein, when coupled with grains, such as rice or wheat, all essential amino acids are provided. Lentils, as with many legumes, are also high in iron, fiber, and folate. Hulled lentil varieties, such as red and some black lentils, provide less fiber than varieties with the hull intact (green and brown).

By Sequoia 1 Healthy Eating Complete protein combinations are a great meatless solution if you are a vegetarian or just looking to lower your meat intake. Meats provide the essential amino acids your body needs to meet protein needs. To get these same amino acids from other food sources, you need to eat from different food groups to achieve the same result. Eating the right mix of seeds, beans, grains, peas and dairy products will give you complete proteins. While eating beef and chicken is an easy protein solution, these foods are sometimes better avoided in large quantities because of their high fat and cholesterol content. Legumes, nuts, seeds, grains, dairy products and eggs are the foods that you will want to mix and match to meet your protein needs. By combining these foods, you will get the eight essential amino acids that are present in meat food sources. These vegetarian food sources also provide numerous vitamins, minerals and sufficient fiber.1.

However, there are a few simple things that you can do to greatly reduce gas from beans. First, you need to soak and cook beans really well. Second, eat beans in combination with other foods. Third, avoid eating too much beans, too soon, and too fast. Not all beans are the same. There are some beans – pinto beans, adzuki beans, black beans, black- eyed peas, kidney bans and garbanzo beans (chickpeas) – that are relatively easier to digest than other bean varieties, and hence cause less stomach bloating and flatulence. I suggest you modify your choices and give your body some time to adjust to the increased dietary fiber intake. Start with split mung beans (mung dahl), or red lentils (masoor dahl) in small amounts, and then gradually add harder to digest beans such as navy beans, green or yellow split peas, brown lentils to your vegan menu plan. Unfermented soybeans are the hardest to digest of all beans so it is a good idea to eat fermented soy products like tempeh, miso, natto and some tofu instead." }, { "docid": "D1025879#0", "title": "http://www.shapefit.com/diet/how-much-protein-grams.html\nHow Much Protein Do You Need? Find Portion Sizes and Grams", "text": "\"How Much Protein Do You Need? Find Portion Sizes and Grams0By Lisa Ronco Diet and Nutrition Protein is a vital macronutrient that plays several roles in the body. Not only does protein transport nutrients in the bloodstream and assist in promoting blood clotting, but it also aids in fluid, electrolyte and p H balance. All of the three macronutrients, which consist of protein, carbohydrates and fats, play crucial roles in the body. Protein also has other important roles too. These include the growth and maintenance of lean muscles, bones, nails and the very important muscles of the heart. Athletes, especially those participating in high intensity, weight-bearing sports such as running, are constantly breaking down muscle tissue and consuming protein assists in rebuilding those muscles. There is no denying that protein is crucial to one’s diet, however, there are some misconceptions especially around health conscience and physically active people about what exactly protein’s function is in the body, how much is necessary and what is the best way to incorporate it into a healthy diet. Why is Protein So Important? The human body requires protein to serve as the building blocks for new tissues and to replace worn out cells." }, { "docid": "D709048#0", "title": "http://www.indiamarks.com/LentilsDals-Pulses-and-Beans-used-in-Indian-Cooking/\nLentils (Dals), Pulses and Beans Used in Indian Cooking", "text": "Home Food & Drink Recipes Lentils (Dals), Pulses and Beans Used in Indian Cooking Food & Drink Recipes Lentils (Dals), Pulses and Beans Used in Indian Cooking Dried legumes and their edible seeds, known as pulses, are classified into three groups – lentils, beans and peas. Legumes and Pulses are a natural source of protein, high in fibre and low in fat. They have a wide range of flavours and textures and form a large part of the Indian daily diet. They are eaten either whole (with the skin still intact) or split in half (with or without their skins). The term “dal”or “daal” refers to a bean or lentil which has had the outer husk removed and the remaining lentil is then split. This ensures a quicker cooking time and a softer, creamier texture when cooked. The Importance of Lentils and Pulses in Indian Cooking Dal or lentils is the staple food in every Indian home. Both the rich and the common person who lives on the street enjoy it. It is what chicken soup is to the west – it is India’s comfort food.

One half cup serving of cooked kidney, black or pinto beans contain 8 grams of fiber; one half cup cooked white beans or chickpeas contain 6 grams of fiber. One half cup of cooked lentils contains 5 grams of fiber and one half cup cooked split peas contain 4 grams of fiber. In addition to these legumes being a great source of fiber they are also a good source of plant based protein which is low in fat and contains no cholesterol. Emilia Klapp Nutrition & Dietetics Beans, peas, and lentils are among the richest sources of dietary fiber. Take a look at these serving sizes: Baked, kidney, black, white, and pinto beans: 12 g to 17 g of fiber per cup. Split peas, cooked: more than 16 g per cup. Lentils: more than 16 g per cup. Lima beans, soybeans, and chickpeas: about 10 g to 12 g per cup.

It is made of lentils, peas, or beans which are often split, dried and stripped of their hulls. They are usually eaten with rice as a side dish or as part of other dishes. Dal may be prepared in different versions. Some have it prepared like a sticky paste while others prefer having it as a soup. Dals may also be prepared split or whole, with husks or without. One of the most popular varieties is “Massoor dal”.

More than any other single dish, dhal pulls off the culinary hat- trick of being healthy, delicious and fantastically cheap. The word itself is derived from the Sanskrit \"\"to split\"\", and refers to the split lentils and other pulses from which it is made. If you can split it, someone, somewhere will be making a dhal out of it. From Pakistan to Bangladesh, from Sri Lanka to the West Indies, red lentils, green lentils, split peas, mung beans, kidney beans, chick peas and others are being turned into dhals. A good dhal recipe is like a good knife – every good cook carries one and each prizes their own for different reasons.

The benefits of an efficient bowel aside, a high-fiber diet can also reduce the risk of stroke, hypertension, and heart disease. Unfortunately, fiber consumption is currently at an all-time low, with less than three percent of Americans meeting the recommended intake. Why Fiber? Fiber is something the body needs but never actually digests—in fact, it remains more or less the same from plate to toilet. It comes in two varieties, soluble and insoluble, and most plant-based foods contain a mixture of the two. Soluble fiber turns to gel in the stomach and slows digestion, which helps lower cholesterol and blood glucose. Insoluble fiber, on the other hand, remains unchanged all the way to the colon, making waste heavier and softer so it can shimmy through the intestines more easily. Regardless of these differences, neither type of fiber is ever absorbed into the body. Skipping out on a daily dose of fiber often leads to constipation, which can make going to the bathroom painful and uncomfortable—hence the term “backed up.”" }, { "docid": "D2384669#0", "title": "https://www.ag.ndsu.edu/pubs/yf/foods/fn1508.pdf\nPulses: The Perfect Food, Healthy to Eat, Healthy to Grow; Peas-Lentils-Chickpeas (FN1508)", "text": "Pulses: The Perfect Food, Healthy to Eat, Healthy to Grow; Peas-Lentils-Chickpeas (FN1508)Download PDFPulses, which include chickpeas/garbanzo beans, dry peas and lentils, are increasingly being recognized for their role in promoting good health.

Through careful monitoring of her nutrition, a person with diabetes can significantly decrease her risk of developing diabetes complications such as nerve damage, heart disease, stroke, eye problems and kidney damage. Lentils are a good choice for a low carb lunch, because they are high in fiber and therefore will help stabilize blood sugar levels. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Carbohydrate According to Amy Campbell, registered dietitian and certified diabetes educator for Joslin Diabetes Center, having diabetes does not mean there are certain foods you need to avoid. People with diabetes can eat the same foods as people without diabetes; the caveat is that diabetics must control their carbohydrate intake over the course of the whole day. One cup of cooked lentils contains 39.86 g of carbohydrate, which makes it a low carb option for a midday meal that will not blow your carbohydrate budget for the day. Fiber Lentils are also very high in fiber, which makes them an especially good choice for diabetics. The body does not digest fiber, therefore it does not cause blood sugar levels to rise. According to the Joslin Diabetes Center, diabetics can subtract the number of grams of fiber in any given food from their total carbohydrate. One cup of cooked lentils contains 15.6 g of fiber, which places your net carbohydrate intake for a low-carb lentil lunch at 24.26 g. Protein Lentils also provide a good deal of low-fat protein, which can be helpful for vegetarian diabetics as well as diabetics who want to lose some weight." } ]	[ { "docid": "D242609#0", "title": "http://www.summertomato.com/10-tasty-carbs-that-wont-make-you-fat\n10 Tasty Carbs That Wonât Make You Fat", "text": "10 Tasty Carbs That Won’t Make You Fatby Darya Rose \| Mar 20, 2013Photo by Denna Jones We all know the story. Eating carbohydrates causes a spike in blood sugar, which results in a surge of insulin. Insulin shuttles all that extra sugar into your fat cells and you become obese. Over time, your poor helpless organs become resistant to insulin and you develop type 2 diabetes, heart disease and high blood pressure, thereby shortening your life by 7 years. All of that is true. The story is more complicated, however, because all carbs are not created equal. I’m not here to tell you sugar and flour won’t make you fat, they will. But unrefined foods that just happen to be slightly higher in starch or sugar don’t, in reasonable quantities, elicit giant blood sugar spikes or abnormally high insulin levels. Instead, unprocessed carbohydrates generate gentle, moderate rises in your blood glucose and insulin, giving you a small but long-lasting supply of energy your muscles can use for several hours. This is what is supposed to happen when you eat nourishing food, and normal healthy people have no reason to fear it.

Although restricting carbs can boost your weight-loss efforts, it does mean you have to limit your intake of otherwise nutritious carbohydrate-containing foods, including many fruits and vegetables. Knowing which fruits and veggies are lowest in carbs can help you stick to your diet plan without sacrificing too many essential nutrients. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Net Carbs vs. Total Carbs A food’s total carbohydrate content includes both the carbs your body can digest -- such as starches and sugars -- as well as dietary fiber, an indigestible form of carbohydrate that helps slow the rate at which your body absorbs glucose. Because dietary fiber isn't completely digested, it doesn’t count toward your daily intake of carbohydrates. That's why low-carb dieters typically keep track of a food’s net carbs, or its digestible carbs, rather than its total carbs. Net carbs are total carbs minus the fiber. For example, a 1/2-cup serving of fresh blackberries has 7 grams of total carbohydrates but only about 3 grams of net carbs, because it contains nearly 4 grams of dietary fiber.

You can find 2 types of carbs : complex and simple. Flavor (or intensity of sweetness) is not the basis of the distinction between complex and simple carbs. Even though the foundation of most carbs is sugar, simple carbohydrates break down quickly and often lack the fibre and nutritional elements that complex carbs contain. Simple carbohydrates give you a rapid boost of energy, but will leave you sluggish soon as a result of the rapid digestion (that’s what exactly is called the insulin trap ). Complex carbohydrates (called polysaccharides) digest slowly, letting you keep an excellent energy balance. Polysaccharide are starchy carbohydrates that are present in a lot of grains, vegetables and legumes. Advantages of Eating Slow Digesting Carbs Since complex carbohydrates take longer to be absorbed, the break down of glucose is slower, as well.

But to figure out what you can eat, you'll need to define the number of carbs allowed on your diet. This isn’t as easy as it sounds because a standard definition for a low-carb diet hasn’t been developed, and various popular diets have their own rules to follow. As a general guideline, following a low-carb diet means consuming fewer than 130 grams of total carbs daily. Getting fewer than 30 grams of carbs is a very low-carbohydrate ketogenic diet, reported Nutrition and Metabolism in 2008. To protect your health, don’t begin a low-carb diet until you consult a healthcare professional.

Pick and choose which starches to include in your diet, limiting processed, refined starches in favor of nutrient-dense options such as whole grains, starchy vegetables and legumes. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Beans and Lentils When it comes to choosing healthy starches, beans and lentils should be at the top of your list. Dr. Melina Jampolis, a physician and nutrition specialist on CNN Health, calls beans one of the healthiest starch options because they are a rich source of fiber, plant-based protein and antioxidants. Lentils also contain protein and fiber, and each 1/2-cup serving offers 3.4 grams of resistant starch, which Health.com says helps to boost metabolism and burn fat. Other healthy legumes include dried peas, such as black-eyed and split peas. Potatoes of All Sorts White potatoes might be higher on the glycemic index -- a tool for measuring how quickly a food raises your blood sugar -- than other foods, but they also offer a variety of nutrients, including potassium in the flesh and fiber in the skin. Sweet potatoes are particularly nutritious; the skin offers plenty of fiber, while the pinky-orange flesh contains beta-carotene, an antioxidant that could help prevent or manage arthritis and also contribute to the health of your skin, hair and eyes. Sweet potatoes also provide potassium and vitamin C.

Healthy eating - and proper elderly nutrition - is having a balanced diet where a person eats a variety of foods. Elderly often require less calories as their bodies age, usually related to doing less physical activity, but the need for essential nutrients does not change.

This food is rich in soluble fiber, which also lowers blood cholesterol as it gives you that full feeling you need to avoid temptation and help with weight loss. Not only that, but because they boast a bevy of nutrients, lentils are finally gaining the recognition they deserve as a great source of low-fat protein, making them the perfect substitute for meat. They are in the legume category and can be considered a vegetable or a protein, but not both at the same meal. The 2005 Dietary Guidelines for Americans suggest eating about three cups of legumes each week to maintain a healthy diet. Health Benefits Lentils' high fiber content is a boon to health; it's mostly the soluble kind, so it lowers blood cholesterol by creating gels that bind with bile acids, forcing the body to use cholesterol to replace them. These gels also tie up carbohydrates, so they are absorbed more slowly, stabilizing blood sugar levels and of benefit to anyone with a goal of eating fewer calories. Lentils are exceptionally high in folic acid, which can help prevent certain birth defects and may prevent heart disease, dementia, and bone fractures in people with osteoporosis. Lentils are an important source of iron for vegetarians, serving as protection against anemia.

Processed foods and white flour products too often replace high-fiber foods like whole grains, fruits, vegetables and beans in the American diet. Beans are among your best choices for fiber-rich foods. All beans are an excellent source of the two types of dietary fiber, soluble and insoluble, but contain different concentrations of the two.

A 1/2-cup serving of cooked kidney beans provides 7.9 grams of dietary fiber, or nearly 21 percent of the required daily intake of fiber for a man and 32 percent of the requirement for a woman.

The body is such a cohesive machine, that once one aspect is not working properly (such as a lack of nutrient absorption) that it can trigger a multitude of other dysfunctions, whether genetically or environmentally. For example, a lot of people ask about fat. Previously...we suggested that the easiest way to address the fat content is when the dog is initially diagnosed with EPI restrict the fiber to 4% AND restrict the fat content to 12% (temporarily).... and then once the dog is producing good poops and has been for a few weeks.... try to slowly increase the fat content in the meal. If the poops remain normal, you most likely can feed your EPI dog normal or almost normal amounts of fat as long as the dog is receiving the enzymes. However..... now the recommendation is....to start with fiber restriction as stated above, but to feed normal amounts of fat that is in any dog food.... If diarrhea occurs and other EPI causes have been ruled out, then try a reduced fat diet because you might be dealing with EPI + another concurrent condition that needs the fat restricted diet (Sometimes dogs with IBD cannot handle a lot of fat).

Here are the top five foods to eat to help get rid of excess belly fat: Cabbage, kale, broccoli and other cruciferous veggies These vegetables contain natural chemicals called phytonutrients -- specifically, indole-3-carbinol, or I3C. This particular phytonutrient helps counteract the effects of xenoestrogens, which essentially are chemicals that we consume that act like estrogen. Xenoestrogens derive from a wide variety of sources, including plastics, air pollutants, pesticides, herbicides -- even meat from animals that have consumed hormones as part of their \"\"fattening-up\"\" diets. Once in the body, they can cause an overload of estrogen that can play a pivotal role in the development of belly fat. I3C works as a kind of industrial scrubbing system, helping to counteract and detoxify xenoestrogens so they can't cause harmful effects. Eating lots of cruciferous vegetables naturally increases your levels of I3C to boost your body's ability to protect itself against the harmful effects of xenoestrogens and help avoid belly fat from forming. ( 2)Avocados Avocados are full of healthy fats, and pretty much everyone knows that that's good news for your heart. But they also help satisfy food cravings for fatty foods, helping avoid \"\"sugar swings\"\" that can result in binging and unhealthy snacking. The fatty content of avocados also helps manage the hormones that control your appetite and help you feel full longer, lowering your appetite overall." }, { "docid": "D132443#0", "title": "http://bembu.com/too-much-fiber\n5 Signs You May Be Consuming Too Much Fiber", "text": "Too much fiber can be just as troublesome as not enough, so it’s good to know the signs of taking it too far. While it may be better to err on the side of too much rather than too little, we’re after the Goldilocks of fiber intake, and getting it “just right” is the only way to go.1. Gas and Bloating Even though there are several benefits of getting enough fiber, taking in too much can leave you bloated and gassy. Ironically, when you get your fiber intake right you should experience far less gas and bloating than you did before increasing your fiber. Finding the right amount of fiber to keep your digestive system balanced is key. You don’t need to be overzealous and overcompensate for a lack of fiber by eating more than is necessary. Your body thrives on moderation and variety, so don’t rely on any one food item to bring you all the fiber you need. Make it a group effort from fruits, vegetables, beans, and nuts. What causes it: Insoluble fiber moves through the body without being digested, and there are certain foods that are high in fiber that are known for increasing the amount of gas in your system.

The simple solution: eat filling foods that stick with you. “ Foods that contain fiber, protein, and plant-based fat tend to be the most satiating,” Sass says. These nutrients slow down digestion and the absorption of nutrients, a process that helps you feel physically full for longer, and also means no blood sugar or insulin spikes. While you might find some of the research that follows surprising, there are no magic potions or super bars on this list. They’re all nutrient-rich whole foods, which a recent study revealed increase calorie burning by roughly 50% compared to processed foods, adds Sass.

As a dietitian, I should probably pretend that I’m an expert cook with an expansive repertoire of both meat and vegetarian delights, but the truth is I grew up feeling that the family of foods that includes beans, chickpeas and lentils were rather gross. I think it all stems back to some ugly episodes with lima beans as a child — those same ones that come in the bag with frozen corn, peas and carrots, usually served beside an overcooked pork chop — so I was a late starter when it came to the foods that are also known as pulses.

( For what it’s worth, whole lentils retain more nutrients). Among the benefits of lentils is their nutritional profile: Rich in fibre and protein, lentils are an excellent source of folate and iron, as well as a good source of selenium and zinc. In addition, while lentils and other pulses are naturally carbohydrate-containing foods, their impact on blood sugar is remarkably limited. According to the International Glycemic Index (GI) database ( glycemicindex.com ), red split and green lentils, the two most common types of lentils produced in Canada, have GIs of 21 and 22 points, respectively, which is very low (the GI reflects the impact of a food on blood sugar, with pure glucose sugar given a reference value of 100; a food that scores less than 55 is considered low GI). Lentils and other legumes are also well-known for their beneficial effects on total and “bad” (LDL) cholesterol. Beyond health benefits, there are also good social and environmental reasons to become a legume lover: Lentils, for example, are drought-resistant, and a rare nitrogen-fixing food, which means that not only do they not require fertilizing, but they actually add nitrogen back to the soil." }, { "docid": "D2508734#0", "title": "http://chefinyou.com/2009/09/18/sundal-recipe/\nKondakadalai Sundal (Chickpeas Sundal) by DK on Sep 18, 2009", "text": "\"Kondakadalai Sundal (Chickpeas Sundal) by DK on Sep 18, 2009Navarathri is upon us. \"\" Nava \"\" in Sanskrit means Nine and Rathri means night which obviously denotes the fact that this festival is celebrated for 9 whole days.

Yet in much of our western culture, animal foods have largely displaced beans. Beans, however, are regaining their popularity. Concerned with their health and fitness, more and more people are choosing beans over meat. And why not! Beans provide us with the protein our bodies need for repair without saddling us with the cholesterol and fats of meats. Beans are also a good source of calcium, iron, some B vitamins, and fiber. Sprouted beans manufacture many other important nutrients, including a hefty dose of vitamin C.

It’s easy to get enough protein without eating animals, but the doubters often have another concern: Are these meat-free protein sources complete? The term \"\"complete protein\"\" refers to amino acids, the building blocks of protein. There are 20 different amino acids that can form a protein, and nine that the body can’t produce on its own. These are called essential amino acids —we need to eat them because we can’t make them ourselves. In order to be considered “complete,” a protein must contain all nine of these essential amino acids in roughly equal amounts. Yes, meat and eggs are complete proteins, and beans and nuts aren’t. But humans don’t need every essential amino acid in every bite of food in every meal they eat; we only need a sufficient amount of each amino acid every day. Most dietitians believe that plant-based diets contain such a wide variety of amino acid profiles that vegans are virtually guaranteed to get all of their amino acids with very little effort.

Although the common chickpea in the market is tan or beige, there are also yellow, red, dark green or brown varieties. The two main varieties of chickpeas are the large, light-seeded kabuli type, referred to as garbanzo beans, and the small, dark-seeded desi type. Chickpeas are native to the Mediterranean region and are a major ingredient of many Middle Eastern, Mediterranean and Indian dishes, such as hummus, falafels and Indian curries. Growth in domestic demand for chickpea-containing products have helped to support prices and expand growth in production. U. S. per capita consumption of chickpeas is forecast at 1.85 pounds per person in 2017, up from 1.21 pounds per person in 2016. Chickpeas offer specific benefits to a healthy diet. A one cup serving of chickpeas provides 29 percent of the daily value of protein and 49 percent of the daily value of fiber.

Legumes are grown agriculturally, primarily for their grain seed called pulse, for livestock forage and silage, and as soil-enhancing green manure. Well-known legumes include alfalfa, clover, peas, beans, chickpeas, lentils, lupin bean, mesquite, carob, soybeans, peanuts and tamarind. Fabaceae is the most common family found in tropical rainforests and in dry forests in the Americas and Africa. [ 1]A legume fruit is a simple dry fruit that develops from a simple carpel and usually dehisces (opens along a seam) on two sides. A common name for this type of fruit is a pod, although the term \"\"pod\"\" is also applied to a number of other fruit types, such as that of vanilla (a capsule) and of the radish (a silique ). Legumes are notable in that most of them have symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria in structures called root nodules. For that reason, they play a key role in crop rotation.

Your body breaks down this protein into amino acids, and then uses them to maintain the health of your body's tissues. Chickpeas are a source of incomplete protein, which means they do not contain every amino acid you need for good health.

This commonality is the underlying foundation or basis of what makes their union so strong. Leo, a natural shining leader, can easily obtain these qualities through their charismatic persona. Capricorn, on the other hand, must put in additional effort to capture the same aspirations that are more easily available to their Leo counterpart.

A goat is definitely one of those creatures that might seem to be loners at heart, but they are indeed loners for a reason. They do not need any help to be able to be useful, and they are generally viewed as being hard and stern most of the time. The horoscope zodiac sign of Capricorn is well known for being very hardworking and stern individuals who are masters of intrapersonal relationships with themselves and do not require much interaction with other individuals, not because they abhor physical and social interaction, but because they realize that they need to work alone by themselves in order to get more work done. CAPRICORN – The Sea-Goat Capricorn, out of all the signs of zodiac, is mainly thought of as a serious sign. The horoscopes for Capricorn make it sound like the sign is extremely introverted and stern, as well as independent and unemotional. Because the horoscope zodiac sign of the sea-goat pegs it as being serious and introverted, it is mostly misunderstood as lacking severe emotions and warmth, but that is far from the truth. Capricorns are just very responsible and goal oriented individuals who want nothing more than to succeed in the goals that they have set for themselves. They are masters of developing intrapersonal relationships with themselves, and the only reason why they are emotionless is because they continue to set their sights on the goals that they desire to reach." }, { "docid": "D388832#0", "title": "http://www.gotohoroscope.com/zodiac-signs-compatibility.html\nZodiac Signs Compatibility", "text": "Zodiac Signs Compatibility Compatibility of the signs of the Zodiac With these zodiac signs compatibility reports, based on zodiacal sign's meanings you can take a fascinating new look at your family and friendships... and your business contacts, too!

Freedom is very important to a Sagittarius; relationships have a very definite chance of trying to hold them down. In order to have a successful relationship with Sagittarius you need to understand their zeal and need to find truth and their jet-setting nature. They need to be able to fly off at a moments notice, as it were, to get an answer to a new spiritual guru, or they need to take a vacation at this new exotic location that they just heard about. If you don’t try to keep them chained to home, you give them the freedom to come back to you. Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, and it shares Jupiter’s love of ceremony, ritual, and grandiosity; and this is where Sagittarius’ infamous arrogance comes in. Sagittarius’ weak point is its fear that enthusiastic enough, that it can’t get the “big picture”, or that life is basically hum-drum. To compensate Sagittarius sometimes will act condescending, arrogantly, or will neglect the more boring details of life." }, { "docid": "D138246#0", "title": "http://www.astrologycom.com/leo.html\nAstrologyCom.com", "text": "\"aries taurus gemini cancer leo virgo libra scorpio sagittarius capricornaquarius pisces Leo Relationships \| Leo Sexuality \| Leo Rising \| Current Horoscope \| Health Astrology Home Horoscopes Leo Relationships Leo Sexuality Leo Health Star Guide Relationships Relationship Analysis Soul Connection About Astrology Orders More Info Astrology and Health Runes The Zodiac About Us Leo's Year Ahead in 2012Leo the Lion The Flamboyant Leo Unique Astrology gift book gives humorous insight into Leo personality.

The rising trend of astrology, palmistry, tarot card reading, etc., stresses on the fact that almost every individual in this world is keen on knowing what the future has in store for him. In astrology, each individual is assigned a particular zodiac sign depending on his date of birth. If a person is born on April 1, his zodiac sign is Aries, and if he is born on August 1, then he is a Leo. Most people are aware of the date range for their zodiac sign, but don't know how these signs are assigned. Date Range of Zodiac Signs Simply put, zodiac date range is the period which begins with the date on which the Sun enters the said constellation and ends with the date when it leaves. It starts with the summer equinox, and Aries being the first sign of the zodiac, is assigned the period between March 21 and April 19. Aries is followed by Taurus from April 21 to May 20, Gemini from May 21 to June 20, and so on ...

Learning about which zodiac signs get along with another, we get an idea about the strongest compatible signs. Compatibility is a heavy word for couples - its importance is monumental in deciding whether two people can work things out in the long haul. If two people find it easy to connect in the beginning but hard to sustain later, it becomes quite clear that compatibility was out of the love equation. Love fades for some, it strengthens for others. The governing factor here is of course their compatibility ratio. When it comes to life in general, we can never say just how compatible we are with someone unless we've spent a good amount of time with them, during moments both good and bad. Time tests relations (of all kinds) and its resistance to change, drama, pain, loss, and the like.

Despite conservation efforts, many endangered species are still threatened by poachers or can get caught up in the hunting of other non-endangered animals. The ones that are most at risk also experience habitat loss, as humans move into their spaces and take away the territory they use to find food or make a home. Here are five of the animals that are closest to extinction. Vaquita Environmental activists like the World Wildlife Fund and actor Leonardo Di Caprio have started a campaign to save the vaquita, a marine animal that looks a lot like a dolphin, but with dark rings around its eyes and marks on its lips that look like a smile. There are believed to be fewer than 30 of the porpoises still alive, swimming in the upper Gulf of California, which is a strip of water that starts at the Pacific Ocean and heads inward between the Baja California peninsula and the other parts of Mexico. Vaquitas are the smallest porpoises in the world, reaching about 5 feet and 120 pounds. “This little porpoise wasn't discovered until 1958 and a little over half a century later, we are on the brink of losing them forever,” the WWF said.

These cats are unique not only in sheer size, but also in their ability to roar. A specialized larynx and a unique part of the throat called a hyoid apparatus allows for the production of a true, deep roaring sound. While the cougar, cheetah, snow leopard and clouded leopard are also fairly large, and occasionally included in this group, their larynx creates more of a combination hiss/snarl sound without the bass tone of a real roar. The snow leopard has been included in the genus panthera since 2008, but there is some controversy over moving them from their own genus, uncia, and many biologists still insist the snow leopard is a separate genus. Just as scientific folks debated for years whether a panda was a bear or not, this discussion may have nine lives as well.

It was identified in 2004. There are a number of physical differences between the Qinling Panda and the Giant Panda. The Qinling Panda is overall smaller. Its head is smaller and more round, yet its teeth are large. Its fur is light and dark brown as compared to the black and white of the Giant Panda. It is only found in the Qinling Mountains where it is protected with the help of the nature reserves. There are an estimated 200-300 Qinling Pandas in the wild.GOLDEN TAKINThe golden takin is an endangered goat-antelope native to China. Takins are adapted to staying warm and dry during winters in the Himalayan Mountain regions they inhabit. A thick, secondary coat is grown to keep out the cold. Their large, moose-like snout has large sinus cavities that warm up the air a takin inhales which prevents the loss of body heat by breathing. Although they have no skin glands, their skin secretes an oily substance that provides a water barrier that protects takins from the elements. They are around the same size as a cow and are very aggressive.GOLDEN SNUB-NOSED MONKEYAccording to an estimate published in 2001, this subspecies included about 3,800-4,000 individuals (about half of them adults) in Qinling Mountains. They eat a diet of leaves, fruits, seeds, nuts, bark and flowers.TEMMINCK'S TRAGOPANThe Temminck's Tragopan is a medium-sized pheasant. The male is a stocky red-and-orange bird with white-spotted plumage, black bill and pink legs. It has a bare blue facial skin, inflatable dark-blue lappet and horns. The female is a white-spotted brown bird with blue circular eye skin.CRESTED IBISThis species has become endangered and lives in this one particular area, where it has an extremely small population. Although its population continues to increase, there are now perhaps more than 250 mature individuals. Distinctive bushy-crested ibis has red facial skin and legs. Non-breeding adults are white while breeding adults have grey head, neck, mantle and scapulars.GOLDEN EAGLEThe Golden Eagle is one of the best-known birds of prey. It is the most widely distributed species of eagle. These birds are dark brown, with lighter golden-brown plumage on their napes. Immature eagles of this species typically have white on the tail and often have white markings on the wings. Golden Eagles use their agility and speed combined with extremely powerful feet and massive, sharp talons to snatch up a variety of prey (mainly hares, rabbits, marmots and other ground squirrels). Golden Eagles maintain home ranges or territories that may be as large as 77 square miles. They build large nests in high places (mainly cliffs) to which they may return for several breeding years. Females lay up to four eggs, and then incubate them for six weeks. Typically, one or two young survive to fledge in about three months. These juvenile Golden Eagles usually attain full independence in the fall, after which they wander widely until establishing a territory for themselves in four to five years.CLOUDED LEOPARDThe clouded leopard is a cat found from the Himalayan foothills, and has been classified as Vulnerable (of extinction). Its total population size is suspected to be fewer than 10,000 mature individuals. They are the smallest of the big cats, and not closely related to the leopard. Their average weight is 25 to 51 pounds. The fur of clouded leopards is of a dark grey color, often largely obliterated by black and dark dusky-grey blotched pattern. There are black spots on the head, and the ears are black. They have black stripes on the side of their face.", "text": "Hi Everyone. We are doing something different today.

Researcher Bruce Rothschild and colleagues of the Northeastern Ohio University College of Medicine in Rootstown studied over 10,000 dinosaur vertebrae from 700 museums across North America.

The most common causes of hoarseness and vocal difficulties are outlined below. If you become hoarse frequently or notice voice change for an extended period of time, please see your Otolaryngologist (Ear, Nose, and Throat doctor) for an evaluation. Acute Laryngitis Acute laryngitis is the most common cause of hoarseness and voice loss that starts suddenly. Most cases of acute laryngitis are caused by a viral infection that leads to swelling of the vocal cords. When the vocal cords swell, they vibrate differently, leading to hoarseness. The best treatment for this condition is to stay well hydrated and to rest or reduce your voice use. Serious injury to the vocal cords can result from strenuous voice use during an episode of acute laryngitis. Since most acute laryngitis is caused by a virus, antibiotics are not effective. Bacterial infections of the larynx are much rarer and often are associated with difficulty breathing." }, { "docid": "D2912960#0", "title": "http://lungcancer.about.com/od/symptoms/a/Lung-Nodules.htm\nWhat Does Having a Nodule on the Lung Mean?", "text": "\"Cancer Lung Cancer Symptoms What Does Having a Nodule on the Lung Mean?

Cancer cells grow as a mass (tumor) that may also invade other tissues or spread to other parts of the body. SCC is a major type of skin cancer. SCC usually develops on sun-exposed parts of the body, especially the head, neck, hands, and legs, but it may develop elsewhere. Other sites can include the lips, mouth, lung, digestive tract, bladder, anus, and genitals. Early stages of SCC are highly curable with minor surgery.

Additional tissue samples may be needed to confirm the diagnosis or to help plan treatment. If an individual has symptoms that suggest leukemia, the doctor may do a physical exam and ask about the personal and family medical history. The doctor also may order laboratory tests, including blood tests. Bone marrow tests: The bone marrow is sampled by a technique known as bone marrow aspiration. During this procedure, a thin, hollow needle with a syringe attachment is used to suction up (aspirate) a teaspoon-sized sample of liquid bone marrow from the back of the hip bone. A larger needle is then employed to obtain a bone marrow biopsy (\"\"core\"\" biopsy), which removes roughly a 1/16 inch cylindrical piece of bone marrow from the hip site. After the bone marrow samples are obtained, they are examined by many physician specialists, including a pathologist (disease diagnosis specialist, who examines samples under a microscope), hematologist (blood specialist), and oncologist (cancer specialist).

The disease was formally named leukemic reticuloendotheliosis and its characterization significantly advanced by Bertha Bouroncle and colleagues at The Ohio State University College of Medicine in 1958.

You might suspect a problem if your child has an itchy scalp, but often simply see the lice crawling, or the eggs attached to a hair. Q: How is it treated? A: Treatment involves killing the live lice and eggs with a special shampoo, and using a very fine-toothed comb to remove the eggs (nits). Start with over-the-counter products, and follow the label directions carefully. Generally this means using sufficient amount of shampoo for the length of hair, leaving in place for appropriate time before rinsing out, and not shampooing again for 1 to 2 days to allow it to work.

GAAP requires that financial statements be prepared on an accrual basis and that, consequently, the reporting entity is required to accrue a liability for income taxes owed or expected to be owed with respect to income tax returns filed or to be filed for all applicable tax years and in all applicable jurisdictions. A longstanding debate has involved the controversial recognition of benefits (or reduced obligations) related to income tax positions that are uncertain or aggressive and which, if challenged, have a more-than-slight likelihood of not being sustained, resulting in the need to pay additional income taxes, often with interest and—sometimes—penalties added. Advertisement Preparers have objected to presenting income tax obligations for such positions, often on the not unreasonable theory that to do so would provide taxing authorities with a ”road map” to the challengeable income tax positions taken by the reporting entity.

Amounts received on complete surrender, redemption, or maturity are taxable to the extent that the maturity proceeds or cash surrender value exceed the investment in the contract The excess is taxable income in the year of maturity or surrender, even if the proceeds are not received until a later tax year. The investment in the contract is the aggregate premiums or other consideration paid for the annuity minus amounts paid out that were excluded from income (and/or any dividends received). The gain is ordinary income, not capital gain, and thus cannot be netted against capital losses. Some commentators and some insurers have taken the position that the gain on total surrender of a deferred annuity equals the cash value prior to surrender, without regard to surrender charges, less the taxpayer’s investment in the contract. Example: John’s deferred annuity has a current cash value of $110,000, to which a surrender charge of $10,000 applies. His investment in the contract is $100,000. The position described above holds that if John surrenders the contract now for its net surrender value of $100,000, he will recognize a gain of $10,000 (the cash value of the contract prior to surrender, without regard to surrender charges, less his investment in the contract). This application of Section 72 (e) (3) (A) is incorrect; it applies only in the case of partial surrenders. In the case of a full surrender, IRC Section 72 (e) (5) states that in the case of “full refunds, surrenders, redemptions, & maturities,”…“the rule of paragraph 2 (A) shall not apply” (for which rule, and only for which rule, the “without regard to surrender charges” condition of Section 72 (e) (3) (A) exists).

[ 1] Upon the death of the insured, the trustee invests the insurance proceeds and administers the trust for one or more beneficiaries. If the trust owns insurance on the life of a married person, the non-insured spouse and children are often beneficiaries of the insurance trust. If the trust owns \"\"second to die\"\" or survivorship insurance which only pays when both spouses are deceased, only the children would be beneficiaries of the insurance trust. In the United States, proper ownership of life insurance is important if the insurance proceeds are to escape federal estate taxation.

This special, irrevocable trust (known as a \"\"CRUT\"\") has two primary characteristics: (1) Once established, the CRUT distributes a fixed percentage of the value of its assets (on an annual or more frequent basis) to a non-charitable beneficiary (which is considered the settlor of the trust); and (2) At the expiration of a specified time (usually the death of the settlor), the remaining balance of the CRUTs assets are distributed to charity. The trustee determines the fair market value of the CRUT's assets at the time of contribution, and thereafter on the applicable valuation date. The fixed annuity percentage must be at least 5% and no more than 50% of the fair market value of the assets in the corpus. The remainder (the amount expected to go to charity) must be at least 10% of the fair market value of the assets contributed to the CRUT. Code Section 664 (d) (1) sets the federal income tax requirements for a charitable remainder unitrust. Example Assume an individual, Mr. Smith, has $1 million of publicly traded stock and would like to establish a CRUT. Assume the CRUT is set up to pay the annuity to Mr. Smith over his lifetime.

Answer Generally, life insurance proceeds you receive as a beneficiary due to the death of the insured person, aren't includable in gross income and you don't have to report them. However, any interest you receive is taxable and you should report it as interest received. See Topic 403 for more information about interest. If the policy was transferred to you for cash or other valuable consideration, the exclusion for the proceeds is limited to the sum of the consideration you paid, additional premiums you paid, and certain other amounts. There are some exceptions to this rule. Generally, you report the taxable amount based on the type of income document you receive, such as a Form 1099-INT or Form 1099-R.

Federal estate taxes are expensive (historically 45-55%) and they must be paid in cash, usually within nine months after you die.

Even when a settlement becomes taxable, you can often manage it in such a way to minimize or eliminate any tax burden to you or your business. Property insurance proceeds can create taxable income.credit: Matt Z90/i Stock/Getty Images Indemnity Property insurance is built around the principle of indemnity, or the process of returning an insured piece of property to its pre-loss condition. If the property is destroyed beyond repair, insurance pays the value of the lost item. Because the Internal Revenue Service does not have any interest in your money unless you have a financial gain, indemnity usually keeps the tax man away. When you repair your vehicle, for example, you do not gain from the claim; rather, you simply return to where you were before the loss. In this way, most property insurance proceeds are not taxable. Cost Basis You can, however, have taxable income when the insurance proceeds exceed your cost basis in the damaged item.

I’ve lived near the beach for most of my life, and in fact the beach is still only a 30-minute drive from my home. As such, I’ve seen and interacted with many lifeguards throughout my life. Being a lifeguard is an important job because lives are potentially on the line. Plus, visual clues are critical because lifeguards must constantly scan crowded waters to look for swimmers in trouble. So I started to think about what the ideal lifeguard sunglasses might look like, and the best ones are those that offer super-clear vision, offer maximum protection from the harmful UV rays of the sun, and have polarized lenses. Hopefully the bit about super-clear vision is self-explanatory. Simply buying quality sunglasses and avoiding the dime-store variety will accomplish this requirement. UV protection is also relatively obvious. Lifeguards are in the sun all day long, so their sunglasses should have polycarbonate lenses that offer maximum UV protection (specifically UV400 protection, which comes standard with all of our Matrix Sunglasses and is the best protection for your eyes)." } ]	[ { "docid": "D1945296#0", "title": "http://www.usla.org/?page=RIPCURRENTS\n.", "text": "Rip Currents Share \|Ever been caught in a rip current?

Frames with a close-fitting wraparound style provide the best protection because they limit how much stray sunlight reaches your eyes from above and beyond the periphery of your sunglass lenses.

However, if you take a closer look, not only will you find politicians who bend the rules but you will also find that dressing like a politician requires a very disciplined, calculated and detailed approach to fashion. After spending some time on the Hill, I have learned the very specific fashion culture that is fostered by the country’s top lawmakers.1) A bit of sparkle goes a long way Important events like the upcoming State of the Union address present the President, the First Lady and lawmakers with an opportunity to dress with a hint of glamour and a bit more fun. In 2013, the President stuck to a traditional dark blue tie, while Vice President Joe Biden and Speaker of the House John Boehner decided to have more fun. Biden wore a bright purple tie and Boehner wore an equally bright orange tie and blue shirt. Michelle Obama famously wore a glittery two-tone maroon dress by Jason Wu, who has been under the fashion spotlight since 2009, when the First Lady wore his iconic white, one-shoulder chiffon gown at the Presidential Inaugural ball. In 2012, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton famously wore a thin black headband—a trend straight off the Hollywood red carpet, while Mrs. Obama turned heads in a sapphire Barbara Tfank dress, which she paired with an Alexis Bittar brooch for a little bit of sparkle.2) No ponytails If Hillary Clinton can’t pull it off, then neither can you. The former Secretary of State got some flak for her ponytail phase and has since kept her hair down. Even Speaker John Boehner doesn’t allow his staffers to wear their hair in a ponytail in his office. This does make it difficult when going through a bad hair day or a flat hair day." }, { "docid": "D1664689#0", "title": "http://baywatch.wikia.com/wiki/C.J._Parker\nC.J. Parker", "text": "\"C. J.

It occurs when the basal cells in the skin grow abnormally and out of control. Exposure from ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun is the most frequent cause of basal cell carcinoma. There are several types of basal cell carcinomas and it has many different appearances. Basal cell carcinoma is a very slow growing type of non-melanoma skin cancer. It rarely spreads to other parts of the body. This type of skin cancer needs to be treated and has a high cure rate. If left untreated, basal cell carcinomas can become quite large, cause disfigurement, and in rare cases, spread to other parts of the body and cause death.

Differences Between Polarized and Non-Polarized Lenses If you are looking for new Ray-Ban sunglasses, you may be interested in learning the differences between polarized and non-polarized lenses. The main difference is that polarized lenses are designed specifically to block the glare from reflected light, while non-polarized lenses only block intense light. A vertical polarizer blocks the transmission of horizontal light through the lenses, which results in fewer glares created by the sun's reflection on certain shiny surfaces, such as the road, water surfaces, and hoods of vehicles. This allows you to see better, and can be safer to wear while driving. Another difference is that when wearing polarized lenses, you will be more alert while driving.

Growing scientific research has led leading authorities such as the American Academy of Ophthalmology to warn that repeated exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation and near- UV light can contribute to cataracts and macular degeneration. The lens of the adult human eye will absorb a certain amount of UV radiation and near-UV light to protect the eye. Long hours in the sun or exposure to severe glare overwhelms a person's natural defenses, however, and can result in a painful condition called photokeratitis or snow blindness. This condition usually heals on its own in about a week, but repeated bouts can lead to scar tissue and eventually contribute to cataracts. People can see and feel their skin becoming burned, but they can’t feel it when it happens to the eyes. Lightly sunburned eyes cause symptoms a few hours later. Dryness, itchiness, burning, tearing, and heightened sensitivity to light are all typical. Most often, the cause is not attributed to the sun, and often, the eyes are repeatedly burned, especially during summer and winter months when UV radiation is intensified, reflecting off snow and water.

Polarized sunglasses can be useful for certain sports and driving, helping participants to see more clearly and avoid potential hazards. How Polarized Lenses Work Polarized lenses are available in a variety of colors, depending on the material from which the lenses are made. Darker colors provide higher levels of polarization. Sunlight can be absorbed or reflected in several different directions. Sunlight that is bouncing off horizontal surfaces such as water, land, or the hood of a car is usually reflected back in a similar horizontal direction. This reflection produces an agitating source of glare that cannot only create visual discomfort but can also cause a potentially blinding glare. Glare has the potential to create a very dangerous situation, especially while driving. Polarized lenses contain a laminated filter that allows only vertically oriented light to pass through." } ]

But they have their drawbacks, too --- for example, some question the safety of CFLs due to the their potentially toxic contents. A closer look at the benefits and drawbacks of CFLs can help you determine the best option for you. Advantages CFLs offer dramatic energy savings over incandescents. They last up to 10 times longer, use roughly 75 percent less energy each day and produce 90 percent less heat. An average CFL will illuminate for 1,667 days, whereas a typical incandescent bulb will only last approximately 167 days.

You also wanted to know what bills have been introduced recently on this issue and what actions were taken on them. SUMMARYState law requires businesses to manage fluorescent lamps as a hazardous waste, preferably by recycling them. Residential customers may treat the lamps like other garbage, but are encouraged to bring them to a local hazardous waste collection program. Compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs), which contain mercury, are subject to labeling requirements. CFLs are also tax-exempt. DEP encourages the use of CFLs, but presently has no plans to ban incandescent bulbs in the state. Since 2006, the legislature considered seven bills regarding CFL use that did not become law. Those bills would have provided tax credits, amended the State Building Code, required a study on use of CFLs in schools, encouraged school districts to participate in CFL fundraisers, and required a study on pricing and efficiency of bulbs.

Steel Recycling Facts A 60-watt light bulb can be run for over a day on the amount of energy saved by recycling 1 pound of steel. In one year in the United States, the recycling of steel saves enough energy to heat and light 18 million homes. Recycling one ton of steel saves about 2.5 tons of iron ore, 1 ton of coal and 120 pounds of limestone. The recycling rates of steel packaging are at 46%, in comparison to aluminum at just under 24%. Recycling one ton of steel scrap saves more than 80% of the CO2 emissions produced when making steel from Iron ore. Each household in the United States used approximately 600 steel cans per year. Recycling seven steel cans saves enough energy to power a 60 watt light bulb for 26 hours. Every year the United States saves enough energy, by recycling steel, to supply Los Angeles with nearly a decade’s worth of electricity." }, { "docid": "D2384961#0", "title": "https://hypertextbook.com/facts/2003/ElaineDevora.shtml\nTemperature of a Halogen Light Bulb", "text": "\"Temperature of a Halogen Light Bulb An educational, fair use website.

Cleaner, greener energy supplies may provide the cleanest supplies of needed electricity, but minimizing the energy we need is still the first step to take before selecting the cleanest, greenest supplies. Whenever you save energy, you not only save money, you also reduce the demand for such fossil fuels as coal, oil, and natural gas. Less burning of fossil fuels also means lower emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), the primary contributor to global warming, and other pollutants. You do not have to do without to achieve these savings. There is now an energy efficient alternative for almost every kind of appliance or light fixture. That means that consumers have a real choice and the power to change their energy use on a revolutionary scale. The average American produces about 40,000 pounds of CO2 emissions per year. Together, we use nearly a million dollars worth of energy every minute, night and day, every day of the year.

Energy efficient light bulbs are generally more expensive, but they will save you a considerable amount of money on your energy costs and will also reduce the amount of greenhouse gases that are released into the earth's atmosphere. 2) The next step you can take to reduce global warming is to ensure that you turn things off when you are not using them. This helps to save on the amount of electricity that you use. When you save on electricity, you save money on your power costs and reduce the amount of fuel that is required to burn to give you electricity.

CFLs are not a perfect technology – when turned on they take a moment to fully brighten and they contain a small amount of mercury which requires special procedures for disposal. CFLs are likely also to be a transitional technology, as more energy efficient light sources (such as LEDs) are already coming onto the market. But CFLs are a safe and energy efficient alternative to incandescent bulbs. It seems, however, with any new technology comes a wave of internet fearmongering, and CFLs are now a prime target. You Tube videos are circulating claiming that CFLs cause headaches, mercury toxicity, a host of symptoms from electromagnetic sensitivity, and something called “type 3 diabetes.” Let’s take a look at the claims and the science. Mercury in CFLs There is a small amount of mercury in each CFL, necessary for the function of the bulb, about 4mg on average, with some newer bulbs having as little as 1.4mg.

Halogen is a type of incandescent lamp. It has a tungsten filament just like a regular incandescent that you may use in your home, however the bulb is filled with halogen gas.

The bulb \"\"burns out\"\" when enough tungsten has evaporated from the filament so that electricity can no longer be conducted across it. The halogen gas in a halogen lamp carries the evaporated tungsten particles back to the filament and re-deposits them.

By recycling half of your household waste, you can save 2,400 pounds of carbon dioxide annually. Use Less Heat and Air Conditioning Adding insulation to your walls and installing weather stripping or caulking around doors and windows can lower your heating costs more than 25 percent, by reducing the amount of energy you need to heat and cool your home. Turn down the heat while you’re sleeping at night or away during the day, and keep temperatures moderate at all times. Install a programmable thermostat because setting it just 2 degrees lower in winter and higher in summer could save about 2,000 pounds of carbon dioxide each year. Replace Your Light Bulbs Wherever practical, replace regular light bulbs with compact florescent light (CFL) bulbs. Replacing just one 60-watt incandescent light bulb with a CFL will save you $30 over the life of the bulb. CFLs also last 10 times longer than incandescent bulbs, use two-thirds less energy, and give off 70 percent less heat. If every Canadian family replaced one regular light bulb with a CFL, it would eliminate 90 billion pounds of greenhouse gases, the same as taking 7.5 million cars off the road.

Perennial gardeners who live in areas with a lot of deer learn to interplant attractive plants with plants that deer avoid. Tiger lilies make a lovely choice for deer-resistant plantings. Considerations Most deer damage occurs during winter when food is scarce. Increasingly, though, human population shifts to rural areas, elimination of predators and growing controls of hunting have forced deer populations to forage in areas inhabited by humans. Barriers, noise and repellents have limited success against starving deer. Identification Lilium lancifolium, commonly called tiger lilies, are native to China but are ancient adaptees to the United States. They are perennial bulbs that grow to 6 feet tall and bloom in midsummer. Formerly named L. tigrinum, their scentless flowers are reddish orange to yellow pendant 3- to 5-inch recurved blooms.

These poisonous plants need to be put well away from anything that might mistake bright berries or their pretty blooms for a meal. Oleander Nerium oleander from the dogbane family is a fragrant evergreen shrub. It can get up to 20 feet tall and 10 feet in width. Flowers colors come in yellow, salmon, red, pink and white. Leaves are leathery and 4 to 10 inches long. Oleander is typically used for hedges, screens or as an accent shrub. It can be a skin irritant if touched, and if burnt, the smoke should not be inhaled.

Posted in Informational, Newsletter Tagged: Deer Resistant, Figs, gardening, perennials, Texas Perennials DEER IN CENTRAL TEXASOne of the great challenges of gardening here in central Texas is keeping the deer from turning a landscape into their evening salads. Deer are amazingly adaptable creatures and no one as of yet has come up with a foolproof method of keeping them from eating your landscape beyond high fences. There are steps one can take to help reduce the chances they will munch your flower beds, but no single step is “the” answer. First, don’t feed them. If deer become comfortable eating in your yard and food becomes scarce, your landscape is still in their comfort zone. If for some reason your neighbor feeds the deer or you wish to try something else as a next step, you can use a deer repellent. These repellents mimic either the strong fragrance or the foul tasting sap that we often find in plants that deer don’t like. We strongly recommend repellents for people who can’t live without plants that deer love i.e. roses. We also strongly recommend using repellents with any and all new plantings." }, { "docid": "D3161332#0", "title": "http://www.perennials.com/plants/liriope-muscari-variegata.html\n.", "text": "Liriope muscari ‘Variegata’Variegated Lily-turf USDA Zone: 6-9Plant number: 1.322.200Lily-turf is a grassy-leaved, evergreen perennial most often used as a groundcover or edging plant in shady places.

Deer love many of the same flowers home gardeners do and will not hesitate to nibble away at your hard work. The most successful way to prevent deer from wiping out your garden is to know which types of flowers they like to eat, and then avoid planting them. Instead, plant flowers deer are known to avoid, such as lily-of-the-valley. Perennials, Bulbs, and Annuals Deer are not picky. They will eat annuals, perennials and bulbs equally if given the opportunity, but they favor some above all others. Columbine, a perennial flower that is highly desired by many home gardeners for its ability to grow in the shade, is frequently damaged by deer, according to John W. Jett of West Virginia University. Deer also enjoy eating hosta, another shade perennial, and the beautiful Japanese painted fern. Deer will also eat bulb plants, including tulips (but not daffodils) and some lilies. Pansies, violas and buttercups are annual, spring-blooming favorites of home gardeners, and also some of deers' favorite foods." }, { "docid": "D2456646#0", "title": "https://www.pinterest.com/brandi98/flowers-that-bloom-in-august/\nFlowers that bloom in August", "text": "\"Must-Grow New Perennials for 2013Summer Flowers Flowers Garden Pretty Flowers Potted Flowers Outdoor Flowers Beautiful Flowers Pictures Flower Plants Fresh Flowers Flower Pictures'Warm Summer' Coneflower - such pretty colors.

Lima beans are almost always called \"\"butter beans\"\" in the southern part of the United States, even in markets and restaurants. Lima beans come in three main varieties: Large lima beans are green or speckled. The speckled kind have a creamy texture and a strong earthy flavor, unlike the pale green ones. Small lima beans are also called sieva beans, Carolina bean, civet, seewee, and sivvy. Most small limas are pale green. They are less starchy than the larger varieties.

However, most vegetarians—including soon-to-be vegetarians and their meat-eating loved ones—are concerned about getting adequate protein. Most people are accustomed to getting protein from meat, but what else contains protein? Aren't plant-based proteins \"\"incomplete\"\" or lower quality? Fortunately, with a bit of extra attention, you won't have any trouble meeting your protein needs just because you give up meat. There are so many protein-packed vegetarian options! Did you know that most foods, including vegetables, have some of the essential muscle-building nutrient? Without looking closely, it is easy to miss some great sources. ( Who knew a cup of broccoli had 3 grams!) Nuts, seeds, soy products, cereal, eggs and dairy are all good meatless protein choices." }, { "docid": "D2058281#0", "title": "http://www.thefreedictionary.com/Butter+beans\nbutter bean", "text": "butter bean (redirected from Butter beans) Also found in: Thesaurus, Medical, Encyclopedia .butter beann.1.

They are widely used in countries like Central America; Latin America Asia, Caribbean and Africa. In fact, the legume has become an important ingredient in many traditional Native American dishes. The pod of the bean is slightly curved, flat and oblong in appearance, with an average length of about 3 inches. Enclosed within the pod are 3 to 4 flat kidney-shaped seeds that are the actual lima beans. They are generally cream or green in color and have a starchy, potato-like taste. You may also find seeds that feature different colors, like red, purple, white, brown or black. Although the beans are commonly available in their dried and canned forms, fresh varieties are also not hard to find, especially when they are in season (summer and fall). These highly nutritious beans provide protection against a number of diseases and ailments and are particularly beneficial for the cardio-vascular system and the digestive system.

Likewise, meat will test alkaline before digestion but it leaves very acidic residue in the body so, like nearly all animal products, meat is very acid-forming. * Some foods/beverage may fall under more than category depending on the source VIEWER RELATIONS About Us \| Contact Us \| Write For Us \| Advertise \| Services \| Media Inquiries \| Terms and Conditions \| Copyright Policy \| Privacy Statement STAY CONNECTED Newsletter \| RSS \| Face Book \| Twitter \| You Tube \| Bloggers \| Volunteer \| Magnetico This site is owned and operated by Prevent Disease.com © 1999-2017.

They are usually grown as annual crops. There are two types of seed varieties varying in size. According to their mode of growth, they can be of two types. They can either be grown as the bush variety or the vine variety. On an average, the bush variety is the ones that yield small seeds. They are often referred to as sieve or baby lima. Sometimes, they are also called as butter beans. The vine variety of this plant produces the large seeds that get easily categorized as lima beans.

A favorite in the American South, limas are actually named after the capital of Peru, and they have more nicknames than any other bean: butter bean, Rangoon bean, Burma bean, Madagascar bean, and chad bean. Like common beans, they originated in Peru where they were cultivated even before corn. They are so entrenched in Peruvian culture that they appear on the pottery of the Moche people, who inhabited northern Peru in the 15th century. Lima beans were also grown by Native Americans in the southern part of the United States and were brought back to Europe in the 16th century by explorers. Today they are also popular in Southeast Asia. Lima beans come in three varieties: large, small, and dwarf. The smaller, pale green lima beans also have a number of nicknames: baby limas, sieva beans, Caroline beans, civet, seewee, and sivvy. Baby limas and green baby limas are considered milder and less starchy than large lima beans, which have an earthy flavor. Some American green baby lima beans are exported to Japan where they’re cooked, sweetened, and pureed into a paste known as anko, used as an ingredient in pastries and desserts." }, { "docid": "D79132#0", "title": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legume\nLegume", "text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search A selection of various legumes A legume ( / ˈ l ɛ ɡ juː m / or / ˌ l ə ˈ ɡ juː m /) is a plant or its fruit or seed in the family Fabaceae (or Leguminosae). Legumes are grown agriculturally, primarily for their grain seed called pulse, for livestock forage and silage, and as soil-enhancing green manure. Well-known legumes include alfalfa, clover, peas, beans, chickpeas, lentils, lupin bean, mesquite, carob, soybeans, peanuts and tamarind. Fabaceae is the most common family found in tropical rainforests and in dry forests in the Americas and Africa. [ 1]A legume fruit is a simple dry fruit that develops from a simple carpel and usually dehisces (opens along a seam) on two sides. A common name for this type of fruit is a pod, although the term \"\"pod\"\" is also applied to a number of other fruit types, such as that of vanilla (a capsule) and of the radish (a silique ). Legumes are notable in that most of them have symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria in structures called root nodules. For that reason, they play a key role in crop rotation.

Carbohydrates provide vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and fiber in the diet. The current recommendations suggest 45 to 65 percent of daily calories come from these types of foods. The 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends choosing foods containing complex carbohydrates over refined sources most often for maximum benefits. You can find healthful carbohydrate sources in foods like wheat, corn, rice, oats, barley, quinoa, sorghum, spelt, rye and in fruits, vegetables and legumes. Read on to learn more about the importance of including the right type of carbohydrates in your diet. Complex Carbs Versus Simple Carbs There are two types of carbohydrates; those in their natural food form comprised of a long chain of simple carbs (three or more) linked together which is referred to as “complex” and those that are already in smaller pieces (one or two sugars), referred to as “simple.” Complex carbs are foods, which contain vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Oatmeal, brown rice, quinoa, potatoes, beans, peas and lentils are examples of complex carbs. Simple carbs are often softer in texture – white bread, white rice and baked goods." }, { "docid": "D1287458#0", "title": "http://www.livestrong.com/article/11802-choose-beans-low-carb-diet/\n3 Ways to Choose Beans for a Low-Carb Diet", "text": "3 Ways to Choose Beans for a Low-Carb Dietby PAULA MARTINAC Oct. 03, 2017On a low-carb diet, you might eat anywhere from 20 to 100 grams of carbs a day, depending on the plan. The results you want also figure in – you might be looking to lose weight, manage diabetes, or both. Some popular low-carb diets, like Atkins and South Beach, don’t allow beans until you’ve lost some weight in the first phase of the program. You’ll want to choose beans for your low-carb regimen as soon as it’s permitted, because they provide essential nutrients and health benefits. Just remember to watch your portions. Video of the Day4-Ingredient Banana Pancakes Benefits of Beans for a Low-Carb Diet Beans provide a wealth of nutrients, including fiber and protein, two nutrients strongly associated with satiety and weight management. A cup of beans – for example, black beans, pinto beans or chickpeas – provides approximately 15 grams of protein and between 12 and 15 grams of fiber. You’ll also get high amounts of B vitamins like folate and thiamine in these servings of beans. The B vitamins help your body release energy from food, and folate works with B-12 to manufacture red blood cells. Black beans, pinto beans and chickpeas are also excellent sources of minerals such as iron, magnesium, potassium and manganese." }, { "docid": "D507331#0", "title": "http://healthyeating.sfgate.com/foods-unprocessed-carbohydrates-1189.html\nWhat Foods Have Unprocessed Carbohydrates?", "text": "\"Related Articles List of Healthy Carbs A List of Unrefined Carbohydrates How to Get Rid of Processed Carbohydrates Foods With Natural High Carbs With Simple Sugar Processed carbohydrates get a bad rap in the nutrition world for good reason.

Although the Institute of Medicine recommends that adults consume at least 130 grams of carbohydrates each day, or about 45 to 65 percent of their daily calorie intake, consuming too many carbohydrates can lead to weight gain. A study published in a 2007 edition of the “Journal of the American Medical Association” found that low-carb, high-protein, high-fat diets are often effective for weight loss. According to the American Diabetes Association, people with diabetes should generally limit their carbohydrate intake to less than 45 to 60 grams of carbohydrates per meal. Sugars and Sweets Sugars and sweets are high in carbohydrates but provide few additional nutrients. Limiting or avoiding sugars and sweets can help drastically cut your carbohydrate intake. Examples of high-carb sweets include regular sugar, molasses, high-fructose corn syrup, honey, syrups, cocoa mix, jellies, jams, regular sodas, sugary drinks, sweet tea, candy, chocolate, desserts, doughnuts and toaster pastries. One tablespoon of granulated sugar contains about 17 grams of carbohydrates, according to the U. S. Department of Agriculture National Nutrient Database. Starches Starches include breads, cereals, rice, pasta, couscous, quinoa, potatoes, corn, peas and legumes such as kidney beans, pinto beans, black beans, lentils, lima beans and baked beans.

Certain lectins may also increase blood viscosity, interfere with gene expression and disrupt endocrine function Among the most problematic lectin-containing foods are wheat and other seeds of the grass family, beans, soy and other legumes, and members of the nightshade family such as eggplants, potatoes, tomatoes and peppers By Dr. Mercola While whole foods are healthy, there are certain caveats to consider even here. Lectins (not to be confused with the phospholipid lecithin) are carbohydrate-binding proteins that are widespread in the plant kingdom. An estimated 30 percent of fresh foods contain lectins. 1Even dairy contains lectins. Grass fed butter is an exception.

More From Greatist: The Ultimate Guide To Feng Shui For Your Desk36 Healthy Snacks To Celebrate Fall Vertical Jump: The Surprising Way To Boost Your Fitness Why Fiber? Fiber is something the body needs but never actually digests — in fact, it remains more or less the same from plate to toilet. It comes in two varieties, soluble and insoluble, and most plant-based foods contain a mixture of the two. Soluble fiber turns to gel in the stomach and slows digestion, which helps lower cholesterol and blood glucose. Insoluble fiber, on the other hand, remains unchanged all the way to the colon, making waste heavier and softer so it can shimmy through the intestines more easily. Regardless of these differences, neither type of fiber is ever absorbed into the body. Skipping out on a daily dose of fiber often leads to constipation, which can make going to the bathroom painful and uncomfortable — hence the term “backed up.”" }, { "docid": "D1604238#0", "title": "http://www.slimkicker.com/foods/lima-beans-cooked-2158370\nHow many carbs are in 1 cup of lima beans - cooked", "text": "216 Calories Per Serving Number of Calories: Based on 1 cup serving Calories: 216Fat: 1g Carbs: 39g Protein: 15g Nutritional Value and Information How many calories are in 1 serving?216 calories (0 kilojoules) are in 1 cup - it is the same (calorie-wise) to 0.73 cups of navy beans, 1.14 cups of black beans, and 0.42 cups of broadbeans.

I don’t see them in any of the MDA recipes. What’s your take on them? Legumes (beans, lentils, chickpeas, split peas, etc.) aren’t, by any means, the worst thing you can eat, but they don’t make the ideal meal either. In my estimation, legumes fall into the “O. K.” category with wine, chocolate, cheese and other dairy, etc. On the upside, legumes offer protein, and they tend to be good sources of several minerals like potassium and magnesium. On the downside, they offer only a moderate at best amount of protein (generally 4-9 grams per ½ cup serving). As the How to Eat Enough Protein post showed, legumes’ protein content is dwarfed by the 28 grams you’d get from a cup of cottage cheese or the 50+ grams you’d get from six ounces of several meats. And this relatively small amount of protein comes with a hefty carb content: as high as 28 grams for that same ½ cup serving!Because legumes generally contain so much soluble fiber, they won’t result in sudden blood sugar spikes." } ]

Soil p H is a very important factor in plant health – if the soil is too acidic or too alkaline, plants will be unable to absorb nutrients properly, and your garden won’t grow. The degree of acidity and alkalinity is measured on a scale of 0-14, with a p H of 7 neutral, 0-7 acidic, and 7-14 alkaline. The ideal soil p H for vegetables and lawn grasses is 6.5, just a little on the acidic side. A soil test is needed to determine the p H of your soil. It’s important to identify the plants in your yard before attempting to adjust the p H level of your soil, since some flowers and shrubs thrive in a slightly higher or lower p H soil. If the results of a soil test indicate that the p H of your soil needs adjusting, here’s how to go about adjusting it. Acidifying fertilizers can help lower soil p H over time to make soil more acidic. Tips for Soil p H Correction Read Label: No matter which product you choose, it’s important to follow the instructions on the package to the letter, even if you have to buy a special spreader or applicator to get it right.

If most or all of the water's alkalinity is the result of temporary hardness (dissolved calcium and magnesium carbonate) another options exists which is commonly overlooked: alkalinity precipitation using calcium hydroxide (also known as slaked lime).

But in gardening, lime means any calcium-containing material which is capable of correcting soil acidity. Why lime is used The main reason for using lime is to reduce the acidity of a soil that is acid or, in other words, to sweeten the soil. Few plants will grow well in a very acid soil mainly because their intake of plant foods is reduced; phosphates, in particular, get ‘locked up’ in acid soils. There is often a shortage of calcium in very acid soils. Aluminium and manganese, on the other hand, are often released in such large amounts that they can poison many plants. Tomatoes, beans and brassicas are particularly sensitive in this respect. Lime encourages soil life The bacteria that convert ammonium salts to nitrates —one of the steps necessary before nitrogen-bearing foods can be used by the plant—are almost or completely inoperative in very acid soils. The organism which is responsible for fixing nitrogen in the roots of peas, beans and other leguminous plants operates most favorably when the soil is well limed, which is the reason why peas do not thrive in really acid soils.

All acids contain hydrogen ions, and the strength of the acid depends upon the degrees of ionization (release of hydrogen ions) of the acid.

It was time my brother Tom and I had a talk about the most bizarre moment of our childhoods, the night he inadvertently saved my life when a car hurled Knotts across our family room. We were watching television that Friday night when Knotts took flight. It was 1969, January, and a light snow was falling. The hope was to have three or four inches by morning, enough to spend the day sledding on the long slope behind our home in Akron. I kept an eye on the snow while sitting in Dad's easy chair directly across from a bay window. The double-paned window rose from the floor to the ceiling, and nearly was the width of the room.

Li MPETS (Long-term Monitoring Program and Experiential Training for Students) is a citizen science program for students, educators and volunteer groups. Citizen scientists monitor the coastal ecosystems of California’s national marine sanctuaries, increasing awareness and stewardship of these important areas. The statewide program connects over 6,000 citizens annually to the ocean, involves them directly in a hands-on scientific endeavor and increases their knowledge of the marine environment, creating a new generation of informed and engaged ocean stewards. Beyond the educational value of the program, the power of Li MPETS lies in the large quantity of data collected at more than 60 sites and over 600 miles of California coastline. Annually, thousands of people collect baseline data. By monitoring, teachers, students and community groups become the eyes and ears for our coastal beaches and rocky shores, detecting changes and possible problems, often before anyone else. Li MPETS data have informed the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary Condition Report, were published in the National Marine Sanctuary Conservation Series, and helped establish a baseline of key indicator species for the new system of California Marine Protected Areas (MPAs).

The life cycles of a gastropod can differ depending on where they live--land, ocean or freshwater. A specific example of each is detailed for better understanding of the variety. Gastropods make up the family of animals that include snails, slugs, limpets and sea hares. These animals can be found in fresh or salt water as well as on land. They are the largest group of mollusks and have existed since the early Cambrian period. A single shell and an asymmetrical body characterize these animals. There are three main subclasses of gastropods; the Prosobranchia (ocean snails), Opisthobranchia (sea slugs, sea butterflies and sea hares), and Pulmonata (land and freshwater snails and slugs). Each of the subclasses has developed in its own way and members differ in their reproduction and life cycles within the subclasses.

Animals that defend territories in this way are referred to as territorial. Territoriality is only shown by a minority of species. More commonly, an individual or a group of animals has an area that it habitually uses but does not necessarily defend; this is called the home range. The home ranges of different groups of animals often overlap, or in the overlap areas, the groups tend to avoid each other rather than seeking to expel each other.

Its mantle, located in the center of eight tentacles, is pear-shaped with a beak and mouth in the middle. Each of its tentacles grow to a few feet in length, a little more than half of its body size. Its tentacles are each adorned with suction cups used for grasping and holding prey as well as for taste. The octopus can grow to about 18 inches long when fully mature. Like its relatives, Octopus bimaculatus can use the chromatophores in its skin to change its color and texture when hunting for prey or hiding from predators.

Quadrilaterals break down into several categories: simple quadrilaterals are those that do not have any self-crossings (in the manner of the bowtie shape below, for example); complex quadrilaterals do have self-crossings. Examples are shown below. In the class of simple quadrilaterals are concave quadrilaterals (such as the leftmost simple quadrilateral above) and convex quadrilaterals. A concave quadrilateral contains a reflex angle (an angle greater than 180°), whereas all of the angles in a convex quadrilateral are less than 180°. Again, the examples in the diagram above illustrate these characteristics. In our discussion, we will only consider simple convex quadrilaterals--these include such figures as rectangles. In addition to having four sides, quadrilaterals also have four vertices and four interior angles.

The two triangles on the left are congruent, while the third is similar to them. The last triangle is neither similar nor congruent to any of the others. Congruence permits alteration of some properties, such as location and orientation, but leaves others unchanged, like distance and angles. The unchanged properties are called invariants. In geometry, two figures or objects are congruent if they have the same shape and size, or if one has the same shape and size as the mirror image of the other. [ 1]More formally, two sets of points are called congruent if, and only if, one can be transformed into the other by an isometry, i.e., a combination of rigid motions, namely a translation, a rotation, and a reflection. This means that either object can be repositioned and reflected (but not resized) so as to coincide precisely with the other object. So two distinct plane figures on a piece of paper are congruent if we can cut them out and then match them up completely.

Parallel lines In geometry, parallel lines are lines in a plane which do not meet; that is, two lines in a plane that do not intersect or touch at any point are said to be parallel. By extension, a line and a plane, or two planes, in three-dimensional Euclidean space that do not share a point are said to be parallel.

Before we begin learning this, however, it is important to break down right triangles into parts. Learning terms that refer to the parts of a right triangle will help us avoid confusion throughout this section. All right triangles have two legs, which may or may not be congruent. The legs of a right triangle meet at a right angle. The other side of the triangle (that does not form any part of the right angle), is called the hypotenuse of the right triangle. This side of the right triangle will always be the longest of all three sides. The angles of a right triangle that are not the right angle must be acute angles.

Special types of fat (known as eicosanoids) can do specialized hormone signaling, exerting intricate control over many bodily systems, mostly in inflammation or for immune function. Perhaps the most well known function of fat is as an energy reserve. Fat serves the role of an efficient energy store because it can hold a lot of energy per gram. In fact, fat yields more than two times the Calories per gram than that of carbohydrate (9 Calories/gram for fat versus 4 Calories/gram for carbohydrate). It has been estimated that lean adult men store about 131,000 Calories in fat (Horowitz & Klein, 2000).

A cis-double bond is usually present in the fatty acid that is linked at sn-2, which causes a kink in the acyl chain and decreases the packing density of the lipid. A phosphate (P) can be attached at sn-3 (which forms phosphatidic acid (PA)) and this phosphate can carry a head group (R) that is either neutral (which produces phosphatidylserine (PS) or phosphatidylinositol (PI)) and gives a net acidic charge, or basic (which forms phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) or phosphatidylcholine (PC)) and gives a neutral or zwitterionic lipid. Sphingolipids are based on a C18 sphingoid base, which is usually sphingosine in animals (see figure, part b; blue shading), with a saturated C16-C26 fatty acid (pink shading) that is amide linked to the nitrogen (which forms ceramide (Cer))." }, { "docid": "D701215#0", "title": "http://www.rnceus.com/dmeds/glucose.html\n.", "text": "\"Glucose Homeostasis Most animals, are obliged to catabolize food and use the freed energy to drive anabolic synthesis.

Furthermore, altered muscle metabolism plays a key role in the genesis, and therefore the prevention, of many common pathologic conditions and chronic diseases. Nonetheless, the maintenance of adequate muscle mass, strength, and metabolic function has rarely, if ever, been targeted as a relevant endpoint of recommendations for dietary intake. It is therefore imperative that factors directly related to muscle mass, strength, and metabolic function be included in future studies designed to demonstrate optimal lifestyle behaviors throughout the life span, including physical activity and diet. Strength, muscle, protein metabolism, sarcopenia, dietary requirements Issue Section: Review Article INTRODUCTIONThe importance of muscle mass, strength, and metabolic function in the performance of exercise, as well as the activities of daily living (ADL), has never been questioned. Perhaps less well recognized, muscle plays a central role in whole-body protein metabolism, which is particularly important in the response to stress. Furthermore, abundant evidence points to a key role of altered muscle metabolism in the genesis, and therefore prevention, of many common pathologic conditions and chronic diseases. This review discusses the various roles of muscle metabolism in health and disease, including consideration of possible solutions to muscle loss. Particular emphasis will be given to the notion that increasing protein or amino acid intakes may optimize muscle strength and metabolism and thereby improve health.

Metabolic myopathies are heterogeneous conditions that have common abnormalities of muscle energy metabolism that result in skeletal muscle dysfunction. Most recognized metabolic myopathies are considered primary inborn errors of metabolism and are associated with known or postulated enzymatic defects that affect the ability of muscle fibers to maintain adequate energy and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) concentrations. Traditionally, these diseases are grouped into abnormalities of glycogen, lipid, purine, or mitochondrial biochemistry. Metabolic myopathies are rare but potentially treatable disorders. They are sometimes misdiagnosed as muscular dystrophies or inflammatory myopathies. Metabolic myopathies are the most clearly defined and etiologically understood muscle disorders because their fundamental biochemical defects are known through recent developments in molecular biology and biochemistry. Also, many of the genetic defects have been characterized, and genetic counseling is now possible. [ 1, 2, 3]Metabolic myopathies are important disorders since they mimic other more commonly encountered neurologic diseases.

There are five primary functions of carbohydrates in the human body. They are energy production, energy storage, building macromolecules, sparing protein, and assisting in lipid metabolism. Energy Production The primary role of carbohydrates is to supply energy to all cells in the body. Many cells prefer glucose as a source of energy versus other compounds like fatty acids. Some cells, such as red blood cells, are only able to produce cellular energy from glucose. The brain is also highly sensitive to low blood-glucose levels because it uses only glucose to produce energy and function (unless under extreme starvation conditions). About 70 percent of the glucose entering the body from digestion is redistributed (by the liver) back into the blood for use by other tissues. Cells that require energy remove the glucose from the blood with a transport protein in their membranes.

Introduction Statin drug use has steadily increased over the last several decades, due to the widespread belief that cholesterol reduction is an important step in preventing heart disease. It is undeniable that statins are effective: they can decrease serum cholesterol levels from over 300 db/ml to well within the normal range in a matter of weeks. For a person who already has normal cholesterol levels, statins can drive their cholesterol down to levels not seen in nature. Statins have also been shown to reduce the relative risk of heart attacks in men in their 50's by as much as 30%, but, because heart attacks are relatively rare for this segment of the population, the absolute risk reduction is only on the order of 2%, a point that is often missed by the person being treated.

Hydrogens from the citric acid cycle can be transferred from NADH and FADH 2 to oxygen in the Electron Transport Chain to generate large amounts of ATP from these macronutrients.3.1 Lipid metabolism under aerobic conditions (beta-oxidation)ATP production from fat metabolism occurs exclusively in the mitochondrion. Lipids are stored as triacylglycerol droplets within muscle fibers in close proximity to the mitochondria. Triacylglycerols are also mobilized from adipose tissue stores (adipose cells). Triacylglycerol molecules are split into a glycerol molecule and three water-insoluble fatty acid molecules by the enzyme, lipase (equation 5): Equation 5: Hydrolysis of triacylglycerol This process stimulates the diffusion of fatty acids into the circulation. The free fatty acids (FFAs) are transported by albumin in the blood. The albumin-FFA complex releases FFAs for transport across the muscle plasma membrane by a protein-mediated carrier system. Once in the cytosol, large fatty acids bind to intramuscular proteins to enter the mitochondria (small and medium-chain fatty acids can diffuse freely). Once in the mitochondria, these fatty acids are broken down into acetyl-Co A via beta-oxidation (β-oxidation), resulting in the production of NADH and FADH 2, which enter the electron transport chain to generate ATP via oxidative phosphorylation. Under aerobic conditions, each triacylglycerol molecule consisting of 3 fatty acid molecules, of 18 carbons each, results in the generation of 441 ATP from β-oxidation and citric acid cycle." }, { "docid": "D2154355#0", "title": "https://www.bodybuilding.com/content/ketogenic-dieting-101-how-to-use-fat-as-fuel.html\nKetogenic Dieting 101: How To Use Fat As Fuel", "text": "\"Nutrition Diet Plans Ketogenic Dieting 101: How To Use Fat As Fuel Eating fat to burn fat may sound crazy, but ketogenic dieting has many researched benefits.

Previous studies have shown that oral L-carnitine ingestion does not increase muscle carnitine concentrations [2,3]. However, a new more promising form of carnitine emerged: L-Carnitine L-Tartrate (LCLT). A tartrate is a salt or ester of the organic compound tartaric acid and it is used in some supplements to improve absorption of another substance.

Kraemer et al. [ 5] suspected that less muscle damage would increase the number of intact hormonal receptors. Thus making more of them available for interaction with anabolic hormones (possibly making better environment for muscle growth). Study in professional football players reported that l-carnitine (as LCLT) as well as l-carnitine and l-glutamine beneficially affect markers of muscle damage and muscle soreness [15].

Physical activity has the greatest impact on total daily energy expenditure. However, a high level of physical activity is required for this to occur.

Dietary fat consumption even decreased over time. Although the apparent reduction in energy intake is controversial and the findings have been questioned, these results do suggest that the obesity epidemic might be due mainly to decreased energy expenditure, a characteristic of industrialized populations, rather than drastic changes in feeding behaviours and dietary patterns. A key component of energy expenditure is resting metabolic rate (RMR)." } ]

Here's what's in the name: Camel Hair As you would expect, it's made from a camel. The undercoat of a camel is extremely soft and fine, making it a good choice for clothing. Camel hair provides the best insulation of all the wools so it's usually used for coats. However, it's relatively weak and can become worn easily.

Starting an alpaca farm requires thorough research, careful planning, time and patience. Alpaca farming is quickly becoming very popular these days, especially with the cotton, wool, and textile industry slowly dying in major world-moving countries like the United Kingdom and the United States. Alpaca fiber is still considered by many to be scarce and unique. This actually can only be considered as good news for budding alpaca farmers for there is a very high-demand, not only in the United States, but worldwide. Garments and textile produced from alpaca fiber are highly sought after globally nowadays for their luxury feel and warmth. However, starting an alpaca farm is not all too easy, nor will it be smooth sailing. There are a lot of things to consider when starting out a business such as this, especially for those who have not had years of experience in a similar farming industry . Getting to Know Alpacas The very first thing to do when planning to start an alpaca farm is to educate yourself by reading and doing a lot of research.

Llamas migrated to South America and Asia about 3 million years ago. By the end of the last ice-age (10,000 – 12,000 years ago) camelids were extinct in North America. As of 2007, there were over 7 million llamas and alpacas in South America and due to importation from South America in the late 20th Century there are now over 100,000 llamas and 6,500 – 7,000 alpacas in the US and Canada. The term Llama is sometimes used more broadly, to indicate any of the four closely related animals that make up the South American branch of the family Camelidae: the true llama, the vicuña, alpaca and guanaco. Differentiating characteristics between llamas and alpacas are that llamas are larger and have more elongated heads. Alpacas also have a more luxurious wool than llamas. The most apparent visual difference between llamas and camels is that camels have a hump or humps and llamas do not. Llamas were used as a pack animal by the Incas and other natives of the Andes mountains. In South America llamas are still used for beasts of burden, fibre production and meat." }, { "docid": "D2563823#0", "title": "http://eol.org/pages/309018/overview\nLama glamaâ Overview", "text": "Media Lama guanicoe Trusted Poco a poco Source: Wikimedia Commons See all media See all maps Comprehensive Description Read full entry Learn more about this article Comprehensive Description The llama ( Lama glama) is a large animal (around 130 to 155 kg) and is able to carry a load of 96 kg at a rate of 26 km/day over rugged mountain terrain at an elevation of 5000 m. Llamas played a major role in the development of the Inca Empire, providing invaluable service as beasts of burden (the llama is apparently the only animal domesticated by native peoples of the New World that was used for this purpose). Llamas were also used as a source of meat, fat for making candles, materials for making clothes and rope, and dried excrement that could be used as fuel. Llama hemoglobin has a an unusually high affinity for oxygen and the blood contains an usually high concentration of red blood cells, at least partially explaining the ability of llamas to function so well at high altitudes. ( Nowak 1991 and references therein)The llama is one of four South American camelids (mammals in the camel family) recognized today, two of which are wild species, the guanaco ( Lama guanicoe) and the vicuña ( Vicugna vicugna ), and two of which are domesticated forms, the alpaca ( Lama pacos or Vicugna pacos) and the llama. Wild vicuña and guanaco diverged from a shared ancestor two to three million years ago. ( Wheeler 1995). At one time it was widely believed that both the alpaca and llama were derived from guanacos. However, in light of new archaeozoological evidence from 6000 to 7000 years ago in the central Peruvian Andes linking alpaca origins to the vicuña, Kadwell et al. ( 2001) investigated the origins of these domesticated forms using mitochondrial and nuclear DNA markers. Their results confirmed the hypothesis that the llama is derived from the guanaco, but indicated that the alpaca is actually derived from the vicuña, not the guanaco (their investigation also revealed genetic evidence of historical hybridization and gene flow, at least among domesticated forms)." }, { "docid": "D2897278#0", "title": "http://www.answers.com/Q/What_country_are_alpacas_native_to\nWhat is an alpaca?", "text": "Tanveer Singh Sachdeva 2 Contributions What is an alpaca?

The dental layout and specialization of teeth found in llamas and alpacas is evident in 25 million year old ancestral camelids. Llamas and alpacas have the same number and kinds of teeth (same dental formula): molars, incisors and canines. The significant difference between the two species is that in llamas the incisors (front teeth) are encased in enamel and are not prone to continue growing throughout the animal’s lifetime. However, many llamas are still in need of tooth trimming. Alpacas teeth have characteristics of both llamas and vicunas; they usually have no or little enamel on the tongue side of their teeth and experience continual tooth growth well into adulthood. The incisors are designed to procure food. The llama or alpaca grabs a tuft of grass growing from the ground and shuts its mouth on it, pressing the grass against the dental pad (front of top jaw) with its incisors (teeth at the front of the lower jaw). With the grass held firmly, the animal tears it away and eats. In a normal animal there are six incisors at the front of the lower jaw (mandible) and no front teeth at front of the upper jaw maxilla)." }, { "docid": "D3449681#0", "title": "http://www.fao.org/docrep/T0690E/t0690e09.htm\nChapter 7: Camels, llamas and alpacas", "text": "\"Chapter 7: Camels, llamas and alpacas Unit 57: Camels, llamas and alpaca Unit 58: Ageing camels by the teeth Unit 59: Breeding camels Unit 60: Milk and care of the young camel Unit 61: Feeding and watering of camels Unit 62: Surra of camels (trypanosomiasis)Unit 63: Internal parasites of camels Unit 64: Skin diseases of camels Unit 65: Foot problems in camels Unit 57: Camels, llamas and alpaca Camels live in Africa and Asia.

Home >> Publicaciones >>Published in the ILR Report Vol. 8 Issue #2 Summer 2003Evolution and Origin of the Domestic Camelids By Jane Wheeler, Ph DTo date the earliest evidence of camelid domestication comes from archaeological sites located between 4,000 and 4,900 m (13,120- to 16,072- foot) elevation, in the puna ecosystem of the Peruvian Andes. Both guanaco (Lama glama cacsilensis) and vicuña (Vicugna vicugna mensalis) have inhabited this tundra environment for approximately 12,000 years and, together with the huemul deer Hippocamelus antisensis (d’Orbigny 1834), were the primary prey of early human hunters. Faunal materials from archaeological sites (Wing 1986; Wheeler 1984, 1986; Wheeler et al. 1976; Moore 1988, 1989) indicate that during the earliest occupation of this zone 12,000 to 7,500 years ago, approximately equal numbers of camelids and deer were hunted, while during later periods the frequency of camelid remains increased dramatically, suggesting a shift to the utilization of domestic animals. Archaeozoological data from one of these sites, Telarmachay Rockshelter, have produced the most extensive evidence concerning this shift to date (Wheeler 1984,1986). Located 170 km (1,054 miles) northeast of Lima, Peru (11°11’S latitude and 75°52’W longitude) at 4,420 m (14,498 feet) above sea level, Telarmachay is situated near the absolute upper limits of crop growth potential. Mean annual temperature is 4.8°C (40.6 F), with an average daily variation of greater that 20°C (68°F) and frost occurring 330 nights of the year. Annual precipitation averages from 500 to 1,000 mm (20 to 40 inches) and is normally restricted to the months from November to March, although the timing is irregular and unpredictable, and extended periods of drought occur. No agriculture is practiced in the area today, and grazing ungulates represent the most reliable food resource." }, { "docid": "D2880490#0", "title": "https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/alpaca\nalpaca", "text": "\"alpacanoun al·paca \\ al-ˈpa-kə \\Popularity: Bottom 30% of words Trending Now:oligarch glib depose omnibus acrimony ALLTime Traveler!

Aberrant migration of the meningeal worm in susceptible hosts such as llamas and alpacas causes damage to the central nervous system and may result in death. Identification and Life Cycle The meningeal worm is a nematode parasite belonging to the family Protostrongylidae. The definitive host is the whitetailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) prevalent throughout much of eastern North America. 1 Adult meningeal worms reside in the meninges of whitetailed deer and rarely cause clinical signs of disease. 1,2Adult worms lay eggs in the meninges of whitetailed deer. The eggs then pass into the venous circulation and travel to the lungs where they hatch into firststage larvae (L1). The L1 are coughed up, swallowed, and passed in the feces of infected deer. Larvae then invade or are ingested by snails or slugs (terrestrial gastropods). Snails and slugs serve as intermediate hosts in which the first stage larvae develop into infective third stage larvae (L3) over a period of 34 weeks." } ]

And as long as IRS guidelines are followed, the transaction can be remarkably appealing, with more flexible lending terms, IRS-required Applicable Federal Rates that are still lower than commercial mortgage rates, the potential to still deduct mortgage interest payments for the borrower, avoidance of origination and many other mortgage transaction fees, and the simple benefit that all the interest and principal payments ultimately stay in the family. A major downside, however, is that to ensure the IRS truly respects the transaction – and to receive some of the tax benefits as well – formalities of the loan should be honored, including drafting a promissory note, recording the mortgage against the residence in the proper jurisdiction, and completing actual payments of interest and/or principal. Fortunately, a new solution has emerged – a company called National Family Mortgage, that completes all of the required documentation, records the mortgage, helps to service the loan, and even issues the requisite IRS reporting forms, all for a fraction of the cost of a traditional mortgage loan origination fee. While this won’t likely mark a great boom in intra-family mortgage lending, it nonetheless makes the strategy far easier for advisors to implement efficiently for clients!Intra-Family Loan Strategies The basic principle of an intra-family loan is fairly straightforward – rather than borrowing money from a bank, a family member in need borrows money from someone else in the family, such as a child borrowing money from his/her parents. The benefits of doing so are significant: the interest costs paid by the child stay in the family (to be used by the parents or in the extreme, inherited back by the child in the future! ); origination and other transaction fees may be avoided; the borrowing cost for the child is typically much lower than interest rates from the bank; yet (especially in today’s environment) the interest rate paid is still better than what the parents may have been able to earn from a bond portfolio. For instance, in today’s marketplace, the parents could loan money to the child for a 30-year mortgage at 2.5%, which is much less expensive than a 30-year fixed rate mortgage at 3.5% (or higher, depending on loan-to-value, the size of the loan, and the borrower’s credit score). Yet the parents still generate interest at 2.5%; while meager, that’s better than what they’ll likely get from CDs (although notably, lending money out as a mortgage is far less liquid for the lender!). In addition, if the loan is a mortgage that is actually secured against the residence the child purchases and is properly recorded, the child can still deduct the mortgage interest paid to the parents!

( TNS)—When you purchase your home or buy land for your new home from a seller, you’re responsible for paying closing costs on top of the negotiated contract price. These costs are sometimes shared by the seller, depending on how you negotiate the deal. As you sign the dotted line, you might wonder, “Are closing costs tax-deductible?”The IRS has some specific rules on itemized deductions for homeowners regarding deducting real estate closing costs. Here’s what you need to know. Can You Deduct Closing Costs on Your Taxes? Homeowner tax deductions aren’t always easy to calculate, but the IRS does break down what types of tax deductions you can take when you file Form 1040. The only way to deduct closing costs, such as property tax, is by using itemized deductions. You cannot take a standard deduction and also deduct your closing costs, so you have to decide which one offers the most tax advantages for your situation." }, { "docid": "D2534946#0", "title": "http://www.bidawiz.com/questions/personal-tax/mortgages/is-construction-loan-interest-and-closing-costs-deductible\n.", "text": "Back to list QUESTION DETAILHomeowner Related User9Votes Is the interest paid on a construction loan (to rebuild a primary residence that is demolished) tax deductible in the same fashion as that paid for a home loan on a primary residence?

How about the second closing (many construction loans have two closings, one for the initial loan and a second to convert it from a construction to a home loan). What are other tax benefits/detriments of construction loans? What part of the IRC speaks to and governs tax matters surrounding construction loans? ANSWERThe BIDa WIZ Team's Answer: The interest is deductible on a construction loan in the same sense as as the traditional home mortgage interest deduction given that a specific condition is met. You must occupy the home within 24 months from the day in which construction commences. The closing costs you can deduct include the home mortgage interest, origination fees or points, prorated property taxes paid at escrow, and a mortgage prepayment penalty. You deduct them in the year you buy your home if you itemize your deductions. Other costs you can add to the cost basis include the fees to purchase the property, abstract fees, charges for installing utility services, legal fees, recording fees, surveys, transfer or stamp taxes, and owner's title insurance." }, { "docid": "D1758696#0", "title": "http://www.checkbooks.co.nz/frequently-asked-questions/\nMYOB - Frequently asked questions", "text": "Frequently asked questions Need help with your MYOB or XERO bookkeeping ?

Profit is basically the difference between sales/revenue and costs, within a specified period. Cash flow is the daily movement of money in and out of your business. Money comes in from sales and money is paid out to meet supplier bills & other commitments such as loan payments, equipment purchases and drawings. Whilst your business may be generating profits, you may experience cash shortfalls if sales receipts are deferred (when customers are given credit) while supplier payments, wages & loan payments etc are being made.2.

A nswer: The average loan origination fee will be 0.5 to 2% of the loan amount, if expressed in points. It is charged by mortgage brokers for processing and closing your mortgage. Sometimes title fees, escrow, appraisal and other fees will be zeroed, but the loan origination fee will be inflated and high above the average. If that is the case, your loan origination fee will not be tax deductible. If you are a perfect credit borrower, it very likely that your loan processing fee will be much lower than for the average borrower. If you are applying for a home loan over the internet, some online lenders have found a way to minimize significantly the loan origination fee. The good news is even large lenders may be doing it so the risk of becoming a victim of a mortgage fraud is becoming smaller. However, if you are shopping a mortgage from a smaller local lender, make sure you check their license and reputation in the community.

If you read my book The Truth About Money with an open mind, then by the time you finish, you will agree that you should have as big a mortgage as you can get and never pay it off. Reason #1: Your mortgage doesn’t affect your home’s value. You’re buying your home because you think it will rise in value over time. ( Admit it: If you were certain it would fall in value, you wouldn’t buy it — you’d rent instead. In fact, your home’s value will rise and fall many times during the next 30 years — you just won’t get monthly statements showing you how it’s doing.) Yet, the eventual rise (or fall) in value will occur whether you have a mortgage or not. So go ahead and get a mortgage: Your house’s value will be unaffected. That’s why owning your home outright is like having money buried under a mattress. Since the house will grow (or fall) in value with or without a mortgage, any equity you currently have in the house is, essentially, earning no interest." } ]

In determining the amount deductible in such year under the foregoing limitations the funding method and the actuarial assumptions used shall be those used for such year under section 431, and the maximum amount deductible for such year shall be an amount equal to the full funding limitation for such year determined under section 431.

Any of you who have paid interest on a credit card know that to be the case. In order to be deductible, interest must be defined as deductible in the Internal Revenue Code. For example, interest that you pay on your home is defined as mortgage interest. Interest that you pay on funds used to purchase investment assets would be deductible as investment interest.

The pool of funds is invested on the employee's behalf, and the earnings on the investments generate income to the worker upon retirement. In addition to an employer's required contributions, some pension plans have a voluntary investment component. A pension plan may allow a worker to contribute part of his current income from wages into an investment plan to help fund retirement. The employer may also match a portion of the worker’s annual contributions, up to a specific percentage or dollar amount. Next Up Advanced Funded Pension Plan Cash Balance Pension Plan Money-Purchase Pension Plan Pension Protection Act Of 2006 ... BREAKING DOWN 'Pension Plan'There are two main types of pension plans. In a defined-benefit plan, the employer guarantees that the employee receives a definite amount of benefit upon retirement, regardless of the performance of the underlying investment pool. The employer is liable for a specific flow of pension payments to the retiree (the dollar amount is determined by a formula, usually based on earnings and years of service), and if the assets in the pension plan are not sufficient to pay the benefits, the company is liable for the remainder of the payment. American employer-sponsored pension plans date from the 1870s, and at their height, in the 1980s, they covered nearly half of all private sector workers.

The specifics mentioned below apply to 401 (k) plans but generally will apply to other plans. The major exception to this is the 457 plan – funds are available for distribution without penalty at any age, upon separation from the employer sponsoring the plan.

Because contributions to a Roth plan are made with after-tax dollars, you do not need to pay income tax on qualified distributions, though you would still report them to the IRS on Form 1099-R when filing your taxes. In addition, the terms of Roth 401 (k) accounts stipulate that distributions must begin by age 70 1/2 or when the account holder retires, whichever comes later. If the account holder owns a 5 percent or larger share of the employing company, distribution must begin at age 70 1/2 regardless of employment status. Many people either decide to retire before they reach 59 1/2 or simply end up needing retirement funds for other purposes earlier in life. If a withdrawal is made from a Roth 401 (k) account that does not meet the above criteria, it is considered \"\"unqualified\"\" and incurs income taxes. However, taxes are only assessed on the earnings portion of the withdrawal. Since Roth contributions are made with after-tax dollars, you do not need to pay taxes on that portion again. To calculate the portion of the withdrawal attributable to earnings, simply multiply the withdrawal amount by the ratio of total account earnings to account balance." }, { "docid": "D2004575#0", "title": "http://freeannuityrates.com/annuities/glossary.php\nAnnuity Glossary", "text": "\"Tweet Annuity Glossary1035 Exchange: A tax-free transfer of an annuity contract from one insurer to another.

The plan document (s) specifies, at the time an amount is deferred, the amount to be paid, the payment schedule and the triggering event that will result in payment. There are six permissible triggering events: a fixed date, separation from service (e.g., retirement ), a change in ownership or control of the company, disability, death or an unforeseen emergency.

A Roth IRA can also be an individual retirement annuity, which is an annuity contract or an endowment contract purchased from a life insurance company. As with all IRAs, the Internal Revenue Service mandates specific eligibility and filing status requirements. A Roth IRA's main advantages are its tax structure and the additional flexibility that this tax structure provides. Also, there are fewer restrictions on the investments that can be made in the plan than many other tax-advantaged plans, and this adds somewhat to their popularity, though the investment options available depend on the trustee (or the place where the plan is established). The total contributions allowed per year to all IRAs is the lesser of one's taxable compensation (which is not the same as adjusted gross income) and the limit amounts as seen below (this total may be split up between any number of traditional and Roth IRAs.

If you participate in a 401 (k) plan, you may be able to borrow up to $50,000, or half of the balance in the plan (whichever is less). But that doesn’t mean that option is right for your situation. Know the Consequences of Borrowing Take the following into account before borrowing from your 401 (k): If you borrow from your 401 (k) and then are terminated by your employer, you are obligated to pay back the entire outstanding balance of your 401 (k) loan, typically within 60 days. Whatever amount you do not repay is considered a retirement distribution and may be subject to income tax and possibly a 10 percent early withdrawal penalty (if you are under age 59 ½. While you are repaying your 401 (k) loan, you may or may not be allowed to make your normal pretax contributions, depending on your employer's plan rules. If your employer will not allow you to make new contributions while you have a loan outstanding, you lose the opportunity to increase your 401 (k) balance. Keep in mind that if you are not making any pretax contributions, your income taxes may rise during this period as well. Given the chances of potential penalties, taxes and decreased saving opportunities, does it ever make sense to take a loan from your 401 (k)? After all, interest rates on these loans are reasonable, perhaps half as much as what a bank might charge you for a personal loan. If your cash flow is really tight and you are making big payments on debts with high interest rates, using a 401 (k) loan may take some pressure off your monthly payments." } ]

It is ball-shaped and typically half the size of the Syrian hamster, so is called a dwarf hamster along with all Phodopus species. Features of the Djungarian hamster include a typically thick, dark grey dorsal stripe and furry feet. As winter approaches and the days shorten, the Djungarian hamster's dark fur is almost entirely replaced with white fur. In captivity, this does not always happen. In the wild, they originate from Dzungaria, the wheat fields of Kazakhstan, the meadows of Mongolia, Siberia, and the birch stands of Manchuria. Djungarian hamsters are common as pets in Europe and North America, and exhibit greater variance in their coats than those found in the wild. They reproduce often—more so than Syrian hamsters, and as they have no fixed breeding season, can continue to produce large numbers of offspring all year round.

Most importantly, you want to pick a cage that is large enough, safe, and easy to clean. Unfortunately, many cages you will find at the pet store do not meet all these requirements when it comes to Syrian (golden, teddy bear, black bear) hamsters. Style of Cage Your main choices will be between a wire cage (usually on a plastic base), a plastic modular cage (the kind with many compartments and tubes), or an aquarium (with a secure mesh lid). Each style of cage has advantages and disadvantages. Ease of Cleaning In general, a wire cage with a plastic tray is the easiest to clean; just lift the wire off the bottom, clean out the bedding, and wipe down the wire part as necessary. The more complex the cage, the more difficult it will be to clean, which is very important if you are looking a plastic cage with multiple compartments and tubes. These cages can become a real chore to clean. Aquariums are not terribly difficult to clean but can be heavy and awkward to handle at cleaning time. Let's face it, cleaning cages is not a fun task, so keeping it easy will make owning a hamster more fun." }, { "docid": "D317669#0", "title": "https://quizlet.com/105012767/vtne-labexotic-animals-flash-cards/\nVTNE - Lab/Exotic Animals", "text": "\"149 terms Charlotte PMIVTNE - Lab/Exotic Animals Learn Flashcards Write Spell Test Match Gravity Advertisement Upgrade to remove ads Sort Tyzzer's Disease Contagious bacterial disease in rats, gerbils, rabbits, and horses Caused by Clostridium piliforme (Bacillus piliformis)Psittacine Relating to, resembling, or characteristic of parrots Belonging to the family Psittacidae, which includes parrots, macaws, and parakeets Passerine Of or relating to birds of the order Passeriformes Includes perching birds and songbirds such as the jays, blackbirds, finches, warblers, and sparrows Recommended psittacine diet 45-50% cereals and grains 45-50% vegetables ~5% fruits ~5% meats / dairy Mineral supplementation Organisms inhabiting the caged bird digestive system Predominantly gram-positive Gram stains of fecal specimens are used to determine the bacterial flora of the digestive tract Cloacal swab Moistened swab is inserted into the cloaca to retrieve cells Done on psittacine species to determine the bacterial flora of the lower gastrointestinal tract Cytologic: inflammatory cells (e.g. heterophils) C&S, detecting Chlamydia psittaci, viral isolation Crop wash Saline is flushed into the crop via a tube Sample is retrieved to examine for protozoans (e.g. Trichomonas) and yeast (Candida albicans), as well as allow for cytologic examination Heterophil Granular leukocyte similar to the human neutrophil but found in animals (reptiles, avian species) Granules have variable sizes and staining characteristics Body temperature of psittacine species 102-104 degrees FRecommended venipuncture site for psittacine species Right jugular vein Can also use the basilic vein and the medial metatarsal vein Recommended site for injections of drugs in birds The large pectoral muscle mass Wing clipping in birds Heavier birds: primary flight feathers Lighter birds: primary and secondary flight feathers Chlamydophila psittaci Avian chlamydiosis Top differential diagnosis for a sick bird that has nonspecific clinical illness (e.g. diarrhea, vomiting, ocular and respiratory signs, malaise) Zoonotic (psittacosis)Colonic wash Fecal sample collection method for reptiles Reasons toenail clipping is generally discouraged for obtaining a blood sample Painful (may cause transient lameness) Low blood yield Unreliable hematologic results from blood obtained from that site Venipuncture in reptiles Varying sites, depending on species Snakes and lizards: caudal / coccygeal vein of tail, cardiac puncture, ventral abdominal vein Turtles: jugular vein Large crocodilians, turtles, and tortoises: occipital sinus, caudal tail vein Small lizards: peribulbar and retrobulbar plexus Ideal atmospheric conditions for captive reptiles Temperature: 75-90 degrees F (convalescing animals should be kept on the warmer end of the scale) Humidity: 50-70%Injections in reptilian species Usually on the cranial half of the body (epaxial muscles, biceps / triceps brachii)Why do you generally avoid injecting medication into the caudal part of the body for avian and reptilian species?

By Kimberly Lankford, Contributing Editor August 14, 2008You mentioned in one of your long-term care insurance articles that the premiums are tax-deductible, based on a sliding age scale. What are the rules for writing off these costs? A portion of your long-term care premiums may be tax-deductible as a medical expense if you itemize your taxes and your policy meets certain standards (most new policies qualify for the write-off, but ask your long-term care insurance company to make sure). The portion of the premiums you can include as a medical expense is based on your age and increases a bit each year for inflation. For 2008, you can include up to the following in qualified long-term care premiums (the limits are for each person and cannot exceed the premiums you've paid): Age 40 or younger by year end: $310 41 -- 50: $580 51 -- 60: $1,150 61 -- 70: $3,080 71 and older: $3,850Advertisement But that's only the first part of the calculation. You add your eligible long-term care insurance premiums to your other unreimbursed medical expenses. You can write off those costs only after they exceed 7.5% of your adjusted gross income. If your adjusted gross income is $50,000 for the year, for example, you'll only be able to write off medical expenses beyond $3,750. Say, for example, that you are 62 years old, have $3,000 in unreimbursed medical expenses and paid $4,000 in long-term care insurance premiums in 2008." }, { "docid": "D3345326#0", "title": "https://www.agingcare.com/Articles/medical-expenses-tax-deductions-148730.htm\nWhat Medical Expenses Can Be Written off on Taxes?", "text": "What Medical Expenses Can Be Written off on Taxes?17 Comments Follow Comments By Marlo Sollitto\| Last Updated 3.5.2018Many caregivers and their aging loved ones rack up thousands of dollars every year in medical expenses. This includes items and services not covered by Medicare, co-pays and deductibles, even the amount of gas used to get to and from doctor’s appointments. Depending on the total amount you’ve spent over the past year, you might be able to deduct those medical expenses on your taxes. However, you must have an awful lot of medical expenses to take the deduction. “There are a number of requirements that a caregiver must meet to deduct medical expenses for themselves and the person they care for,” says Mark Luscombe, CPA, JD, LLM, principal federal tax analyst at Wolters Kluwer Tax & Accounting. First and foremost, the person receiving care must meet certain support, income, relationship, citizenship and other tests to be claimed as a dependent by their caregiver. ( You can read more about whether you can claim a loved as a dependent here . )“ Secondly, the medical expenses must be of the type approved by the IRS as qualifying for the medical expense deduction,” Luscombe says. To qualify for the deduction, the total cost of your eligible unreimbursed medical expenses must exceed 7.5 percent of your adjusted gross income (AGI). For example, if your AGI is $50,000, then the first $3,750 of medical expenses don’t count." }, { "docid": "D2326991#0", "title": "http://www.finweb.com/insurance/when-are-health-insurance-premiums-qualified-medical-expenses.html\nWhen Are Health Insurance Premiums Qualified Medical Expenses?", "text": "When Are Health Insurance Premiums Qualified Medical Expenses?comments There are several instances when health insurance premiums are considered a qualified medical expense. Being classified as a qualified medical expense allows a taxpayer to deduct a portion of the expense. This allowance permits a taxpayer to deduct any qualified medical expense that exceeds 7.5 percent of a taxpayer’s adjusted gross income (AGI). For example, if a taxpayer’s AGI is $100,000 and they incur $10,000 in qualified medical expenses, they would be permitted to deduct $2,500 since that is the amount that exceeds the 7.5 percent threshold ($7,500). Information concerning the deductibility of qualified medical expenses can be found in IRS Publication 502. The premiums that can be deducted as a qualified medical expense are certain Medicare payments for recipients age 65 and older, COBRA payments, qualified long-term care premiums, premiums paid on a relative’s policy and contributions made to a health savings account (HSA). Deduction of Medicare Premiums A Medicare recipient, which is anyone who is age 65 or older, premiums paid in connection with Part B out-patient care coverage, Part C Medicare Advantage program and Part D prescription drug benefit can be deducted as qualified medical expenses. This also extends to any of the 12 Medigap or Medicare Supplement plans offered by Medicare through private insurers. The deduction for premiums paid for Medicare Part B, C, D or a supplement plan is limited to the amount that exceeds 7.5 percent of the person’s AGI.

It’s like a supercharged flexible spending account that never expires, and it can even serve as an extra retirement-savings fund.

Medical expenses are the costs of diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease, and the costs for treatments affecting any part or function of the body. These expenses include payments for legal medical services rendered by physicians, surgeons, dentists, and other medical practitioners. They include the costs of equipment, supplies, and diagnostic devices needed for these purposes. Medical care expenses must be primarily to alleviate or prevent a physical or mental disability or illness. They don't include expenses that are merely beneficial to general health, such as vitamins or a vacation. Medical expenses include the premiums you pay for insurance that covers the expenses of medical care, and the amounts you pay for transportation to get medical care. Medical expenses also include amounts paid for qualified long-term care services and limited amounts paid for any qualified long-term care insurance contract. What Expenses Can You Include This Year?

To qualify for an exemption, the child must live with you more than half of the year and be under 19 at the end of 2007 or under 24 if a full-time student, which is defined as attending school for at least part of five calendar months of the year. You no longer have to show that you provide more than half of the child’s support, as required under pre-2005 rules, but the child cannot provide more than half of his or her own support for you to claim an exemption.

En español \|The phrase \"\" long-term care \"\" refers to the help that people with chronic illnesses, disabilities or other conditions need on a daily basis over an extended period of time. The type of help needed can range from assistance with simple activities (such as bathing, dressing and eating) to skilled care that's provided by nurses, therapists or other professionals. Employer-based health coverage will not pay for daily, extended care services. Medicare will cover a short stay in a nursing home, or a limited amount of at-home care, but only under very strict conditions. To help cover potential long-term care expenses, some people choose to buy long-term care insurance. Policies offer many different coverage options. Since you can't predict what your future long-term care needs will be, you may want to buy a policy with flexible options. Depending on the policy options you select, long-term care insurance can help you pay for the care you need, whether you are living at home or in an assisted living facility or nursing home.

Susan Marquis and Jill M. Yegian Next Section Abstract The individual market is the only source of health insurance for the more than 20 percent of Americans not eligible for group or public health insurance, yet participation rates are low and shrinking. This paper examines this market’s structural features and assesses the likelihood that it will play an expanded role in the future.

PROLOGUE: According to the latest data from the U. S. Census Bureau, there are now at least forty-five million uninsured Americans. Most are employed but either are not offered or cannot afford employer-sponsored health insurance. The 2004 data are not a departure from past trends: In 2003, employer-sponsored health insurance covered 700,000 fewer people than in it did in 2002. Almost 30 percent of self-employed Americans lack health insurance. Among the uninsured are entrepreneurs; consultants; small-business owners and their employees; mostly younger, often single people." }, { "docid": "D3056028#0", "title": "https://quizlet.com/158750186/tax-midterm-chapter-5-flash-cards/\nTax Midterm Chapter 5", "text": "\"26 terms jess_schmitt Tax Midterm Chapter 5Learn Flashcards Write Spell Test Match Gravity Advertisement Upgrade to remove ads1)Fred specified in his will that his nephew John should serve as executer of Fred's estate.

Next Up Group-Home Care Accountable Care Organizations Insurance Long-Term Care Ombudsman BREAKING DOWN 'Long-Term Care (LTC) Insurance'Long-term care is usually very expensive, which is why most people need insurance. For example, on average, nursing facilities providing skilled care charge $150 to $300 per day – more than $80,000 per year or more. Custodial home care at three visits per week can cost more than $9,000 each year. Most LTC insurance policies will cover only a specific dollar amount for each day you spend in a nursing facility or for each home-care visit. Thus, when considering an LTC insurance policy, read the policies carefully and compare the benefits to determine which policy will best meet your own needs. Full home care coverage is an option for LTC insurance and will pay for home care from the first day it is needed. It will cover expenses for a visiting or live-in caregiver, companion, housekeeper, therapist or private duty nurse up to seven days a week, 24 hours per day, up to the policy benefit maximum.

An HSA gives you a triple tax break: Your contributions are sheltered from income taxes, the money grows tax-deferred, and the funds can be withdrawn tax-free for medical expenses. It’s like a supercharged flexible spending account that never expires, and it can even serve as an extra retirement-savings fund.
