"Sunstone is a gem-quality member of the feldspar group of minerals. It is famed for its aventurescence, often referred to as 'schiller'. Sunstone may also be traded as 'aventurine feldspar', but nowadays, the term ' aventurine ' is primarily used only in reference to the green quartz known as 'aventurine'. Although sunstone deposits can be found in various locations around the world, there is no single source from which it is commercially mined. Some of the more significant, notable deposits come from India, Canada, Madagascar, Norway, Russia and the USA (Oregon, Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Utah).",
"The value of gem-quality sunstone is determined by its color, transparency, and the quality of aventurescence. Colorless and yellow stones are usually the least expensive and values increase through pink, orange and red. Bright red stones, green stones and nice bicolor stones have the highest values. The inclusions in sunstone can be so small that they are not visible to the unaided eye, or they can be large enough to be clearly visible. The inclusions are extremely thin. Even though they might be large enough to be clearly seen face-on, they are usually too thin to be visible when viewed from the side.",
"Sunstone is an interesting feldspar gemstone with a glittery appearance and usually an orange or reddish color, hence its name. The glitter effect is caused by inclusions of the mineral Hematite, or sometimes also Goethite or Pyrite (and in one rare instance, Copper). Sunstone is very similar in habit to Aventurine, a form of Quartz that exhibits the same glittering Aventurescence effect. Sunstone is occasionally called 'Aventurine Feldspar' to distinguish it from its Quartz counterpart.",
"Sunstone occurs in a range of colors that begins with colorless and ranges through yellow, orange and red. The color is determined, in part, by the abundance and size of the copper platelets within the stone. The inclusions in sunstone can be so small that they are not visible to the unaided eye, or they can be large enough to be clearly visible. The inclusions are extremely thin. Even though they might be large enough to be clearly seen face-on, they are usually too thin to be visible when viewed from the side.",
"Sunstone is a plagioclase feldspar, which when viewed from certain directions exhibits a brilliant spangled appearance; this led to its use by the Vikings to locate the Sun for navigational purposes. It has been found in Southern Norway, Sweden and in various United States localities. I. The optical effect appears to be due to reflections from inclusions of red copper, in the form of minute scales, which are hexagonal, rhombic, or irregular in shape, and are disposed parallel to the principal cleavage-plane.",
"Sunstone is a member of the Feldspar family, and is named for its warm shades of gold, orange, reds and browns that sparkle like the sun. Inclusions of Goethite or Hematite refract light between the different crystal layers and produce an iridescent effect as the stone is viewed from various angles. Sunstone which is gold in color is the natural birthstone of those born in the magical month of midsummer (July 22 - August 21). Gold crystals bring you success, enthusiasm, happiness, and power. Sunstone which is orange in color is the true birthstone of those born at the end of summer (August 22 - September 22).",
"The name sunstone is used for specimens of translucent to transparent feldspar that produce bright metallic flashes when light interacts with tiny plate-like mineral inclusions within the stone. The inclusions in sunstone can be so small that they are not visible to the unaided eye, or they can be large enough to be clearly visible. The inclusions are extremely thin. Even though they might be large enough to be clearly seen face-on, they are usually too thin to be visible when viewed from the side.",
"-Oregon sunstone, also known as heliolite, is a transparent feldspar with colors ranging from water clear through pale yellow, soft pink, and blood red to (extremely rare) deep blue and green. For decades, however, the term sunstone has been used for these Oregon gem feldspars both with and without schiller. Oregon sunstones are a calcium-rich variety of plagioclase feldspar named labradorite, a common mineral in basaltic lava flows.",

Sunstone is a powerful stone used in crystal energy work for dispelling fears and phobias of all kinds. It is also a leadership stone, and brings leadership qualities to its wearer. In addition to dispelling fears and phobias, sunstone is also used to decrease stress and lift depression"

Yes, you will need to plug the bidet seat to a nearby electrical outlet. Like most power cords in the U.S., the power cord of your bidet seat has two flat pins, with one round pin at the bottom. The bidet toilet seat is compatible with any standard 120V outlet.",
"A bidet may also be a nozzle attached to an existing toilet, or a part of the toilet itself. In this case, its use is restricted to cleaning the anus and genitals. In northern Europe (with the exception of Finland), bidets are rare.

"A bidet is not a strangely named and plumbed toilet! If you have a bidet, you still use the toilet for all the conventional purposes! No, a bowel movement probably would not go down the drain of a bidet, not without quite a bit of unpleasant assistance by the operator or some poor person who came along later. A bidet is a specialized device to be used only for cleaning your genitals and anal region! Sorry to be all blunt and clinical, but this is rather important. For the sake of all employees at traditional European hotels, do not use the bidet inappropriately!",
"Activate a toilet seat bidet. Look for the “Wash” button on the bidet’s remote control, which is usually mounted on the wall next to the toilet. You may also find the button on the toilet itself. A nozzle will appear beneath you and rinse your nether regions with a stream of water. In this latter case, you'll need to use your hands to manually clean yourself. 3. Clean your rear and/or your genitals. If you're using a bidet with a jet, then you can mostly let the force of the water do its work. If you're using a basin, then you'll need to get your hands dirty. Either way, you might consider using your wet hands to scrub the area clean more quickly",
"2. Find the bidet. Sometimes, the bidet is located near the toilet, attached to the wall: it looks something like a low sink or a toilet with a faucet. However, many modern bidets are built into the toilet seat, so you don't need to get up to straddle another fixture. In this latter case, you'll need to use your hands to manually clean yourself. 3.

"Bidets are primarily used to wash and clean the genitalia, perineum, inner buttocks, and anus. Traditional designs may also be used to clean any other part of the human body, such as the feet. Despite appearing similar to a toilet, a traditional bidet may be more accurately compared to a washbasin or bathtub. In northern Europe (with the exception of Finland), bidets are rare. They are also common in the Middle East, in countries such as Armenia, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the UAE, Turkey, Lebanon, Palestine, Syria, and Jordan.",

"Best Answer: I have had a transaction close in less than 4 business days. And escrow can last as long as both parties are agreeable to the terms and conditions.

But actually the length of time it takes to close escrow is the same as it was in 2003 (just prior to the mortgage frenzy of '04, '05, and ‘06). This shows the market returning to somewhat normal conditions as escrow companies are taking their time to review, document, and close the transaction. I tell my clients right now that even though we are shooting for a 30 day escrow is typically going to be 40 -45 days mostly because lenders are taking extra time with appraisals and document reviews.",

It is widely accepted that there are a number of (sub)species of G. camelopardalis though there is increasing evidence to suggest that some of these nine (sub)species may be separate species in their own right.",
"Tallest animal. Giraffes are the tallest living animals in the world, according to the Smithsonian National Zoological Park. A giraffe's neck alone is 6 feet (1.8 meters) long and weighs about 600 lbs. (272 kilograms). The animal's legs are also 6 feet long. In full, females grow up to 14 feet (4.3 m) tall and weigh up to 1,500 lbs. (680 kg), while males grow up to 18 feet (5.5 m) tall and weigh up to 3,000 lbs.",
"Female giraffes become sexually mature around 3 or 4 years old. The gestation or pregnancy period for a female giraffe is about 14 - 15 months. A female giraffe will give birth to a calf that stands about 6 feet tall and weighs approximately 150 lbs. Giraffes use their long necks to reach for leaves high in trees. They only have seven vertebrae in their necks, the same as humans. Not many animals will attack adult giraffes, but young giraffes may be attacked by lions, leopards, hyenas and other predators. Giraffes were at one time believed to be a combination of a camel and a leopard. The species name camelopardalis is derived from this mistake.",
"The giraffe's scattered range extends from Chad in the north to South Africa in the south, and from Niger in the west to Somalia in the east. Giraffes usually inhabit savannas, grasslands, and open woodlands. The giraffe has an extremely elongated neck, which can be up to 2 m (6 ft 7 in) in length, accounting for much of the animal's vertical height. The long neck results from a disproportionate lengthening of the cervical vertebrae, not from the addition of more vertebrae. Each cervical vertebra is over 28 cm (11 in) long.",

"How the Thyroid Gland Works. The thyroid is part of the endocrine system, which is made up of glands that produce, store, and release hormones into the bloodstream so the hormones can reach the body's cells. The thyroid gland uses iodine from the foods you eat to make two main hormones: 1 Triiodothyronine (T3). 2 Thyroxine (T4). ",
"However, parathyroid hormone and calcitonin work together to control calcium levels in the blood. The blood calcium level is the main stimulus for the release of these hormones, as the release of these hormones is not controlled by the pituitary. This means they make and release (secrete) hormones. Hormones are chemicals which can be released into the bloodstream. They act as messengers, affecting cells and tissues in distant parts of your body. Thyroid hormones affect the body's metabolic rate and the levels of certain minera",
"23. Thyroglobulin is: (a) the major component of colloid inside follicles; (b) another name for thyroid hormone; (c) the major stimulus for release of thyroid hormones; (d) the protein that transports thyroxine in the blood; (e) the protein that transports TSH to the thyroid gland. 24. The primary effect of T3 and T4 is to: (a) decrease blood glucose; (b) promote the release of calcitonin; (c) promote heat-generating (metabolic) reactions; (d) stimulate the uptake of iodine by the thyroid. 13.",
"for the release of hormones is one of: Endocrine glands release hormones in response to one (or more) of the following stimuli: 1 Specific molecules in the blood, e.g. certain minerals or nutrients (as regulated by feedback mechanisms that maintain homeostasis). 2 Stimulation by other (specific) hormones. 1 (leading to the rhythmic release of hormones, i.e. hormone levels rising and falling in a predictable pattern, 2 also regulated by feedback mechanisms). 3 Stimulation by signals from the nervous system. ( 4 leading to hormone release in short bursts or spurts as required-as opposed to in a steady rhythm,",
"The other hormone that the thyroid makes is called calcitonin. This helps to control the levels of calcium and phosphorus in the blood. These minerals are needed, among other things, to keep bones strong and healthy. The main job of the thyroid gland is to produce hormones T4 and T3. To do this the thyroid gland has to take a form of iodine from the bloodstream into the thyroid gland itself. This substance then undergoes a number of different chemical reactions which result in the production of T3 and T4. This means they make and release (secrete) hormones. Hormones are chemicals which can be released into the bloodstream. They act as messengers, affecting cells and tissues in distant parts of your body. Thyroid hormones affect the body's metabolic rate and the levels of certain mineral",
"The production and release of thyroid hormones, thyroxine and triiodothyronine, is controlled by a feedback loop system which involves the hypothalamus in the brain and the pituitary and thyroid glands. Thyroxine is the main hormone secreted into the bloodstream by the thyroid gland. It plays vital roles in digestion, heart and muscle function, brain development and maintenance of bones.",
"Thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH), also called thyrotropin-releasing factor (TRF), thyroliberin or protirelin, is a tropic, tripeptidal hormone, produced by the hypothalamus, that stimulates the release of TSH (thyroid-stimulating hormone) and prolactin from the anterior pituitary. The system of the thyroid hormones T3 and T4. TRH is produced by the hypothalamus in medial neurons of the paraventricular nucleus. At the beginning, it is synthesized as a 242-amino acid precursor polypeptide that contains 6 copies of the sequence-Gln-His-Pro-Gly-, flanked by Lys-Arg or Arg-Arg sequences.",
"Endocrine glands are glands of the endocrine system that secrete their products, hormones, directly into the blood rather than through a duct. The major glands of the endocrine system include the pineal gland, pituitary gland, pancreas, ovaries, testes, thyroid gland, parathyroid gland, hypothalamus and adrenal glands. The hypothalamus and pituitary gland are neuroendocrine organs",
"In response, the other endocrine glands produce hormones that affect metabolism. For example, TSH from the pituitary gland stimulates the thyroid gland to produce thyroid hormones. In turn, thyroid hormones inhibit the release of calcium in the blood. Other adenohypophysis hormones have unique effects upon metabolism. "

But the process of human fertilization is very complicated and comprised of many steps and components necessary to achieve the ultimate result of human life. ",

This 5-second delay should be enough time for your camera to write the captured image to the memory card and get ready to capture the next photo. This might have been the perfect setting for the beginning of the time-lapse, but as the sun set the color of the ambient light changed, yet the camera was still fixed on Tungsten.

Blood flows out of the capillaries into the venules, which have little smooth muscle and are 10-200 µm. The blood flows from the venules into the veins. In addition to these blood vessels, the microcirculation also includes lymphatic capillaries and collecting ducts. When the flow of substances goes from the bloodstream or the capillary to the interstitial space or interstitium, the process is called filtration. This kind of movement is favored by blood hydrostatic pressure (BHP) and interstitial fluid osmotic pressure (IFOP).",

"The systemic circulation is made up of the blood vessels that pump blood from the heart to the rest of the body. The pulmonary circulation is made up of the blood vessels that take deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle of the heart to the lung and then return oxygenated blood to the left atrium. The physiology of the systemic circulation is determined by: 1 Dynamics of blood flow.",
"Muscular, or distributing, arteries deliver blood to specific body organs, and have the greatest proportion of tunica media of all vessels, making them more active in vasoconstriction. Arterioles are the smallest arteries and regulate blood flow into capillary beds through vasoconstriction and vasodilation. Capillaries are the smallest vessels and allow for exchange of substances between the blood and interstitial fluid. Continuous capillaries are most common and allow passage of fluids and small solutes. Fenestrated capillaries are more permeable to fluids and solutes than continuous capillaries. ",
"This is the precapillary sphincter. It is on the outside of the blood vessel along with the other tissue cells and it is sensitive to low O2, acid, high CO2, and high K+. All of these tend to make the sphincter relax and allow blood flow through the capillary bed. There opposites cause contraction and cut off capillary blood flow. Most of the time capillary beds are shut off; only about one in six is open",
"Microcirculation deals with the circulation of blood from the heart to arteries, to smaller arterioles, to capillaries, to venules, to veins and back to the heart. The flow of blood in the capillaries is controlled by structures called precapillary sphincters. These structures are located between arterioles and capillaries and contain muscle fibers that allow them to contract. When the sphincters are open, blood flows freely to the capillary beds of body tissue. When the sphincters are closed, blood is not allowed to flow through the capillary beds. Fluid exchange between the capillaries and the body tissues takes place at the capillary bed. Capillaries are so small that red blood cells can only travel through them in single file. Capillaries measure in size from about 5-10 microns in diameter. Capillary walls are thin and are composed of endothelium (a type of simple squamous epithelial tissue).",
"When blood enters the arteriole end of a capillary, it is still under pressure (about 35 torr) produced by the contraction of the ventricle. As a result of this pressure, a substantial amount of water and some plasma proteins filter through the walls of the capillaries into the tissue space. Control of the Capillary Beds. An adult human has been estimated to have some 60,000 miles (96,560 km) of capillaries with a total surface area of some 800–1000 m 2 (an area greater than three tennis courts). The total volume of this system is roughly 5 liters, the same as the total volume of blood.",
"Capillary walls allow the free flow of almost every substance in plasma. The plasma proteins are the only exception, as they are too big to pass through. The minimum number of un-absorbable plasma proteins that exit capillaries enter lymphatic circulation for returning later on to those blood vessels. When the flow of substances goes from the bloodstream or the capillary to the interstitial space or interstitium, the process is called filtration. This kind of movement is favored by blood hydrostatic pressure (BHP) and interstitial fluid osmotic pressure (IFOP).",

"Photograph courtesy NASA Earth Observatory. Volcanoes are awesome manifestations of the fiery power contained deep within the Earth. These formations are essentially vents on the Earth's surface where molten rock, debris, and gases from the planet's interior are emitted. ",
"When pressure builds up, eruptions occur. Gases and rock shoot up through the opening and spill over or fill the air with lava fragments. Eruptions can cause lateral blasts, lava flows, hot ash flows, mudslides, avalanches, falling ash and floods. Volcano eruptions have been known to knock down entire forests. There are more than 1500 active volcanoes on the Earth. We currently know of 80 or more which are under the oceans. Active volcanoes in the U.S. are found mainly in Hawaii, Alaska, California, Oregon and Washington.",
"A volcano is a vent or fissure in Earth's crust through which lava, ash, rock and gases erupt. A volcano is also a mountain formed by the accumulation of these eruptive products. Let's take a look at how volcanoes form: Earth's crust is 40 to 250 miles (64 to 402 kilometers) thick. Airborne fragments of lava, called tephra, are ejected from a single vent. The lava cools rapidly and builds up around the vent, forming a crater at the summit. Cinder cone volcanoes are fairly small, generally only about 300 feet (91 meters) tall and not rising more than 1,200 feet (366 meters).",
"A volcano is a vent or chimney which transfers molten rock known as magma from depth to the Earth's surface. Magma erupting from a volcano is called lava and is the material which builds up the cone surrounding the vent. A volcano is active if it is erupting lava, releasing gas or generates seismic activity.",
"Shield volcano. When magma is very hot and runny, gases can escape and eruptions are gentle with considerable amounts of magma reaching the surface to form lava flows. Shield volcanoes have a broad, flattened dome-like shape created by layers of runny lava flowing over its surface and cooling. Magma erupting from a volcano is called lava and is the material which builds up the cone surrounding the vent. A volcano is active if it is erupting lava, releasing gas or generates seismic activity.",
"Deep inside Earth, between the molten iron core and the thin crust at the surface, there is a solid body of rock called the mantle. When rock from the mantle melts, moves to the surface through the crust, and releases pent-up gases, volcanoes erupt. ",
"Volcanoes are formed when magma from within the Earth's upper mantle works its way to the surface. At the surface, it erupts to form lava flows and ash deposits. Over time as the volcano continues to erupt, it will get bigger and bigger. There are more than 1500 active volcanoes on the Earth. We currently know of 80 or more which are under the oceans. Active volcanoes in the U.S. are found mainly in Hawaii, Alaska, California, Oregon and Washington.",
"More than 50 volcanoes in the United States have erupted one or more times in the past 200 years. The most volcanically active regions of the Nation are in Alaska, Hawaii, California, Oregon, and Washington. Volcanoes produce a wide variety of hazards that can kill people and destroy property. ",
"Category: Volcanoes grow by intrusion and extrusion. An intrusion is magma that moves up into a volcano without erupting. Like a balloon, this causes the volcano grows on the inside. An extrusion is an eruption of material that causes the volcano to grow on the outside. Volcanoes are constructed this way mainly of two materials: lava and ash. Another kind of volcano is called either a stratovolcano or composite-volcano. Mt. St. Helens, Pinatubo, and Fuji are all stratovolcanoes",
"Volcanic ash is formed during explosive volcanic eruptions, phreatomagmatic eruptions and during transport in pyroclastic density currents. Explosive eruptions occur when magma decompresses as it rises, allowing dissolved volatiles (dominantly water and carbon dioxide) to exsolve into gas bubbles. "

"Sealants coat the inside of the tire and wheel with a messy residue, which a tire shop has to clean out, possibly causing extra expense. They can potentially gum up the tire-pressure monitor sensor (TPMS), if so equipped, risking erroneous readings. However, in our tests, we had no sensor become inoperable. Pressurized-can sealers ($7.50 to $10), such as the ubiquitous Fix-A-Flat, are one-time-use products that have a dispensing tube that screws to a tire’s air-inflation valve.",
"The Advantages of Tire Puncture Sealant. One of the greatest advantages of using a canned tire puncture sealant is convenience. You simply attach the nozzle of the can to the tire valve stem and release the contents of the can into the tire. ",
"These sealers can both patch a hole and inflate the tire. Tire-sealant kits ($20 to $80) combine a portable 12-volt air compressor and a replaceable container of sealant. More and more new cars supply this kind of kit in lieu of a spare tire. Despite their roles, these products are not spare tires in a can.

"User Rating: Slime Tire Sealant. This stuff works great. I had a lawnmower tire that had a slow leak, it sealed it and that was it. For the others that rated this product keep in mind that Slime does not inflate tires. Slime also will not seal or repair a leak in a valve stem or a puncture in a sidewall of a tire.

"The idea for commercial dog food was born. Spratt called his biscuit the “Patented Meat Fibrine Dog Cake.” His company began operations in America in the 1870s. Spratt appears to have been the first commercial producer of cat food, too. Commercial dog foods in the early 1940s could not maintain an Army dog in good working condition. So in November 1942, the Quartermaster Corps authorized the procurement of both commercial dog food and additional meat to supplement the diet.",
"¹. The commercial pet food industry started in 1860 with James Spratt's invention of the first dog biscuit in England. Made from vegetables, beef blood, wheat, and beet root, Spratt reportedly was inspired by observing sailors throwing hardtack to dogs at the docks. The commercial pet food companies do know a lot more about what cats need, but that still doesn't mean that the pet food industry is making food that is best for your cat.",
"Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: The first commercial dog food was introduced in England about 1860, by James Spratt, an electrician from Ohio. He came up with a biscuit, shaped like a bone, made of wheat, vegetables, beetroot and beef blood. The growth in canned dog food really shot up in the 1930s, and by 1941, canned dog food represented 91% of the dog food market in the U.S. Because of WWII, tin wasn't available for canning, so dry food became popular again.. By 1946, dry dog food was king once again, and it has remained so to this day.",

Spratt appears to have been the first commercial producer of cat food, too. Prior to the advent of Spratt’s Dog Cake, household pets were generally fed table scraps.",
"A History of Commercial Dog Food. A couple of ago, I took my dog for a visit to the vet, and as part of our annual exam, the veterinary technician asked me what I fed him. I mentioned the main source of food and said that we supplement with about 20% table scraps. She winced.",
"Dog food refers to food specifically intended for consumption by dogs. Like all carnivorans, dogs have sharp, pointed teeth, and have short gastrointestinal tracts better suited for the consumption of meat. The 1930s saw the introduction of canned cat food and dry meat-meal dog food by the Gaines Food Co. By the time WWII ended, pet food sales had reached $200 million. In the 1950s Spratt's became part of General Mills.",
"The variety of commercial dog food brands and individual dog food recipes now on the market, is quite overwhelming. We help you learn for yourself how to easily differentiate between the best commercial dog food and the worst dog food brands. 3. Check whether or not the type of meat is specified. All the best commercial dog foods will have the name of the meat or its meal form listed as the first ingredient on the label-If listed more than once before the fat source, this indicates a higher meat quotient (protein) and, therefore, a very nutritious dog food.",
"The next advance in commercial dog food was specialty diets, formulated for specific diseases or disorders in pets. Dr Mark Morris DVM, founder of Hill’s Pet Products (Science Diet) was the first in the field to develop this idea. The Purina Company quickly followed, along with several other companies. A couple of ago, I took my dog for a visit to the vet, and as part of our annual exam, the veterinary technician asked me what I fed him. I mentioned the main source of food and said that we supplement with about 20% table scraps. She winced.",
"A Brief History of Dog Food. The first commercial dog food was introduced in England about 1860. James Spratt, an electrician from Ohio, was in London selling lightning rods when he saw miserable street dogs ganged up along the piers waiting to being tossed mouldy hardtack biscuits and scraps of rotten food. The growth in canned dog food really shot up in the 1930s, and by 1941, canned dog food represented 91% of the dog food market in the U.S.Canned dog food fell out of favor (and supply) during World War II when a shortage of tin made canning difficult and expensive, and as the horse surplus dried up.",
"There are certainly much better cat foods out there now than when I was a child and some of them actually smell rather good. The commercial pet food companies do know a lot more about what cats need, but that still doesn't mean that the pet food industry is making food that is best for your cat. Cats have been living with humans for a very long time. When people started growing and storing grain, having cats around became a very good idea"

"Hyperlipidemia is the presence of elevated or abnormal levels of lipids and/or lipoproteins in the blood, and is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Blood lipids (or blood fats) are lipids in the blood, either free or bound to other molecules. They are mostly transported in a protein capsule, and the density of the lipids and type of protein determines the fate of the particle and its influence on metabolism",
"Most people have high levels of fat in their blood because they eat too much high-fat food. Some people have high fat levels because they have an inherited disorder. High lipid levels may also be caused by medical conditions such as diabetes, hypothyroidism, alcoholism, kidney disease, liver disease and stress. The first ways to reduce your lipid levels are (1) eat less fat, (2) exercise regularly and (3) lose weight if you weigh too much. If you smoke, stop smoking. If these steps don't lower your LDL level enough, your doctor may have you take medicine to take the fat out of your blood.",
"A lipid panel is a blood test that measures lipids-fats and fatty substances used as a source of energy by your body. Lipids include cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) , and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) . This panel measures: 1 Total cholesterol level. ",
"There are many different types of lipid (also called lipoproteins). Blood tests can measure the level of your lipoproteins. The standard lipid blood tests include a measurement of total cholesterol, LDL (low density lipoproteins) and HDL (high density lipoproteins), and triglycerides. Total cholesterol — A high total cholesterol level can increase your risk of cardiovascular disease. HDL cholesterol — Not all cholesterol is bad. Elevated levels of HDL cholesterol actually lower the risk of cardiovascular disease. A level greater than or equal to 60 mg/dL or 1.55 mmol/L is excellent, while levels of HDL cholesterol less than 40 mg/dL or 1.03 mmol/L are lower than desired.",
"An Overview of Cholesterol Tests. There are multiple forms of cholesterol circulating in the blood. The various forms of cholesterol and other fats in the blood are together called lipids. Doctors measure and diagnose high cholesterol with a simple blood test, often called a lipid profi le. This may mean that your level of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), or good cholesterol, is too low. It is best to have a high level of good HDL and a low level of bad LDL. The HDL helps keep your LDL level in check. Ask your doctor for your HDL level.",
"Hypercholesterolemia (also spelled hypercholesterolaemia also called dyslipidemia) is the presence of high levels of cholesterol in the blood. It is a form of hyperlipidemia (elevated levels of lipids in the blood) and hyperlipoproteinemia (elevated levels of lipoproteins in the blood). ",

"High sugar refers to high blood sugar or high blood glucose levels, and the phrase high lipids refers to high blood fat or high cholesterol levels. Glucose and cholesterol are both necessary for the body to function, but in excess high blood sugar can lead to diabetes, and high lipids can lead to heart disease. Having high blood sugar may indicate diabetes or prediabetes, but only a physician can confirm this through medical testing. In the event you have high sugar, you may need to monitor your intake of carbohydrates.",

"Cook pork, roasts, and chops to 145 ºF as measured with a food thermometer, then allow the meat to rest for three minutes before carving or consuming. Cross posted from the FoodSafety.gov blog: On May 24, USDA made some important changes in their recommended cooking temperatures for meats. Here’s what you need to know: 1 Cooking Whole Cuts of Pork: USDA has lowered the recommended safe cooking temperature for whole cuts of pork from 160 ºF to 145 ºF with the addition of a three-minute rest time.",
"USDA now recommends cooking all whole cuts of meat to 145°F as measured with a food thermometer placed in the thickest part of the meat, then allowing the meat to rest for three minutes before carving or consuming. The safe temperature for cuts of beef, veal, and lamb remains unchanged at 145°F, but the USDA is adding a three-minute rest time as part of its cooking recommendations. A temperature of 145°F would be termed 'medium rare.'.",
"In 2006, USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) lowered the recommended temperature for poultry from 180° F to 165° F. At that time, USDA said chicken and turkey should be cooked more thoroughly than other meats because Salmonella is the most heat-resistant pathogen of concern in raw poultry. This latest revision for pork comes again on the advice of the FSIS, which says cooking cuts of pork to 145° F with a three minute rest is as safe as cooking them to 160° F, the previously recommended temperature, with no rest time.",

The temperatures are recommended for consumers cooking meat products at home. Other temperatures may be recommended for food processing or foodservice operations. A cooking thermometer can help. IMPORTANT: After desired cooking temperature is reached, remove meat from heat source and let stand 10 to 15 minutes before carving. The amount of time required for resting varies with the size of the cut of your meat.",
"USDA Recommended Safe Minimum Internal Temperatures. 1 Cook all raw beef, pork, lamb and veal steaks, chops, and roasts to a minimum internal temperature of 145 °F as measured with a food thermometer before removing meat from the heat source. 1 Cook all raw beef, pork, lamb and veal steaks, chops, and roasts to a minimum internal temperature of 145 °F as measured with a food thermometer before removing meat from the heat source. 2 For safety and quality, allow meat to rest for at least three minutes before carving or consuming.",
"Remove steaks and burgers from the heat when the thermometer registers 5°F lower than the desired doneness, and roasts 5-10°F lower, as the temperature will continue to rise while resting. The USDA recommends steaks and roasts be cooked to 145°F (medium) and then rested for at least 3 minutes. To ensure food safety, ground beef should be cooked to a minimum 160°F (well done). Be sure to check with a thermometer, as color alone is not a foolproof indicator. ",
"Temperature is a gauge of how thoroughly cooked a cut of meat is based on the color, juiciness and internal temperature when cooked. The gradations of cooking are most often used in reference to beef (especially steak and roasts) but are also applicable to lamb, pork, poultry, veal and seafood (especially fish). ",
"1 Cooking Whole Cuts of Pork: USDA has lowered the recommended safe cooking temperature for whole cuts of pork from 160 ºF to 145 ºF with the addition of a three-minute rest time. Here’s what you need to know: 1 ",
"The USDA is lowering the recommended safe cooking temperature for whole cuts of pork from 160°F to 145°F and adding a three-minute rest time. The safe temperature for cuts of beef, veal, and lamb remains unchanged at 145°F, but the USDA is adding a three-minute rest time as part of its cooking recommendations. A temperature of 145°F would be termed 'medium rare.'."

Chitin is a modified polysaccharide that contains nitrogen; it is synthesized from units of N-acetylglucosamine (to be precise, 2-(acetylamino)-2-deoxy-. -glucose). These units form covalent β-1,4 linkages (similar to the linkages between glucose units forming cellulose).",

"Another feature of fungi is the presence of chitin in their cell walls. This is a long carbohydrate polymer that also occurs in the exoskeletons of insects, spiders, and other arthropods. The chitin adds rigidity and structural support to the thin cells of the fungus, and makes fresh mushrooms crisp. Fungi: More on Morphology.

"About 48 percent use oral medicine, and 40 percent use insulin, sometimes together with oral medicine. Testing is the basic strategy. The key to controlling diabetes for all of these types is blood testing. This means using a blood glucose meter to check how much sugar is in your blood.

Type 2 diabetes is the most common form of diabetes. If you have type 2 diabetes your body does not use insulin properly. This is called insulin resistance. At first, your pancreas makes extra insulin to make up for it. But, over time it isn't able to keep up and can't make enough insulin to keep your blood glucose at normal levels.",

One, your Roth IRA must have been open for five years. Two, you must be either 59 1/2 years old, permanently disabled, or using up to $10,000 to buy a first home. For example, if you have a Roth IRA containing $35,000 of contributions and $10,000 of earnings, you can withdraw up to $35,000 tax-free and penalty-free any time you want.",

"Penalties on Earnings from Contributions. Unless an exception applies, most distributions from a Roth IRA before the owner reaches age 59 1/2 will be subject to an early withdrawal penalty of 10% on the amount of the distribution.

"The tax treatment of a Roth IRA distributions depends on whether the distribution is qualified. Qualified distributions from Roth IRAs are tax and penalty free, but nonqualified distributions may be subjected to tax and an early distribution penalty. Roth IRA distributions can come from the following four sources: 1 A regular contribution. 2 a Roth conversion of taxable Traditional IRA assets (Traditional IRA assets for which a tax deduction was allowed) or a rollover of taxable assets from a qualified plan, 403(b) or governmental 457(b) plan.",
"If, however, you opened your Roth IRA less than five years ago, the withdrawal is an early distribution. As with a traditional IRA early withdrawal, a Roth holder can use the first-home exception to avoid the 10 percent penalty but might owe tax on earnings that are withdrawn. ",

A qualified distribution meets both of the following two categories of requirements: 1. If John takes a distribution of $25,000, the first $10,000 comes from his regular Roth IRA contributions and is therefore tax and penalty free. The additional $15,000, however, comes from his taxable conversion assets.",

Two years later, when you are under age 59½, you withdraw $5,000 from the Roth IRA, and the distribution comes from conversion money because you haven’t made any regular contributions to your Roth IRA. You convert this IRA to a Roth IRA, paying tax on $6,000. Two years later you make a regular contribution of $2,000 to a different Roth IRA. A year after that, you withdraw $3,000 from the conversion Roth IRA."

"The outer covering of the eyeball consists of a relatively tough, white layer called the sclera (or white of the eye). Near the front of the eye, in the area protected by the eyelids, the sclera is covered by a thin, transparent membrane (conjunctiva), which runs to the edge of the cornea. The conjunctiva also covers the moist back surface of the eyelids and eyeballs. The cornea serves as a protective covering for the front of the eye and also helps focus light on the retina at the back of the eye.

"Both the anterior and the posterior chambers contain aqueous fluid. The cornea and the crystalline lens have no blood supply, so this clear aqueous fluid provides nutrients and removes any waste deposits from the transparent structures in the front of the eye. Sclera. The eye consists of three layers of tissue which make up the wall of the eye. The sclera is the outermost layer of tissue, also called the white of the eye. This layer is a very stable fibrous membrane that continues to retain the shape of the eye and provides protection.",
"EYE STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION Eye is like a camera. The external object is seen like the camera takes the picture of any object. Light enters the eye through a small hole called the pupil and is focused on the retina, which is like a camera film. Eye also has a focusing lens, which focuses images from different distances on the retina. The colored ring of the eye, the iris, controls the amount of light entering the eye. It closes when light is bright and opens when light is dim. A tough white sheet called sclera covers the outside of the eye. Front of this sheet (sclera) is transparent in order to allow the light to enter the eye, the cornea. Ciliary muscles in ciliary body control the focusing of lens automatically. Choroid forms the vascular layer of the eye supplying nutrition to the eye structures",
"For other uses, see Cornea (disambiguation) . The cornea is the transparent front part of the eye that covers the iris, pupil, and anterior chamber. The cornea, with the anterior chamber and lens, refracts light, with the cornea accounting for approximately two-thirds of the eye's total optical power. In humans, the refractive power of the cornea is approximately 43 dioptres. While the cornea contributes most of the eye's focusing power, its focus is fixed.",
"Structure of the eye. The cornea is a transparent structure found in the very front of the eye that helps to focus incoming light. Situated behind the pupil is a colorless, transparent structure called the crystalline lens. A clear fluid called the aqueous humor fills the space between the cornea and the iris",
"The Cornea. The cornea is a transparent dome-shaped tissue that forms the front part of your eye. It functions as a window and allows light to enter your eye. It also begins the process of focusing light rays that allow you to see words and images clearly. ",
"Cornea. The cornea and sclera form the outer fibrous layer of the eye. The cornea is a clear transparent tissue, which is located forward of the eyeball. Light rays pass through this limpid tissue, and on through the crystalline lens to reach the retina. The cornea is convex in shape and for this reason directs or bends light rays so that they can be focused on the retina. Sclera. The eye consists of three layers of tissue which make up the wall of the eye. The sclera is the outermost layer of tissue, also called the white of the eye. This layer is a very stable fibrous membrane that continues to retain the shape of the eye and provides protection."

"Amylin is a peptide of 37 amino acids, which is also secreted by the beta cells of the pancreas. Some of its actions: 1 inhibits the secretion of glucagon; 2 slows the emptying of the stomach; 3 sends a satiety signal to the brain. The alpha cells of the islets secrete glucagon, a polypeptide of 29 amino acids.

"Insulin & Other Injectables. Insulin is a naturally occurring hormone secreted by the pancreas. Many people with diabetes are prescribed insulin, either because their bodies do not produce insulin (type 1 diabetes) or do not use insulin properly (type 2 diabetes). "

"In the centuries since, the history of the Southern United States has recorded a large number of important events, including the American Revolution, the American Civil War, the ending of slavery, and the American Civil Rights Movement. European history in the region began in the very earliest days of the exploration and colonization of North America. Spain, France, and England eventually explored and claimed parts of what is now the Southern United States, and the cultural influences of each can still be seen in the region today.",
"After the American Revolution, many northern states outlawed slavery. By 1840 most slaves who lived north of the Mason-Dixon Line were set free. Many people in the north felt that slavery should be illegal in all the United States. These people were called abolitionists because they wanted to abolish slavery. During the Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln gave the Emancipation Proclamation which declared that the slaves in the South were free. Although, this did not free all the slaves immediately, it set the precedence for all slaves to b",
"Some slave states, however, remained in the Union. Missouri, Kentucky, Maryland, and Delaware did not secede and soon became known as the Border States. West Virginia, which was made up of fifty counties loyal to the North, broke off from Virginia in 1863 and joined the Union. These states were extremely important to the North. Some slave states did not secede. These Border States-Missouri, Kentucky, Maryland, Delaware, and later, West Virginia-decided to remain in the Union, prodded perhaps by Lincoln's rhetoric and actions.",
"Both in Brazil and in the United States—the countries with the two largest slave populations in the Western Hemisphere—the end of slavery found the regions in which slaves had been concentrated poorer than other regions of these same countries. The United States was polarized over the issue of slavery, represented by the slave and free states divided by the Mason–Dixon line, which separated free Pennsylvania from slave Maryland and Delaware.",
"The first slaves in the American colonies arrived on a Dutch ship in Jamestown, Virginia in 1619. Over the next 200 years, around 600,000 more slaves were brought to the American colonies, most of them to work the tobacco and cotton fields. During the Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln gave the Emancipation Proclamation which declared that the slaves in the South were free. Although, this did not free all the slaves immediately, it set the precedence for all slaves to be set free.",
"Slavery in the United States was the legal institution of human chattel slavery that existed in the United States of America in the 18th and 19th centuries after it gained independence and before the end of the American Civil War. The United States was polarized over the issue of slavery, represented by the slave and free states divided by the Mason–Dixon line, which separated free Pennsylvania from slave Maryland and Delaware.",
"Defenders of slavery argued that the sudden end to the slave economy would have had a profound and killing economic impact in the South where reliance on slave labor was the foundation of their economy. The cotton economy would collapse. The tobacco crop would dry in the fields. Some slaveholders believed that African Americans were biologically inferior to their masters. During the 1800s, this arguement was taken quite seriously, even in scientific circles. Defenders of slavery argued that slavery had existed throughout history and was the natural state of mankind.",
"Why the South believed in Slavery It evolved from a lack of labor. In the early days of the American Colonies there was insufficient manpower to supply the needed amount of labor for the available work. The first answer was Indentured Servitude. ",
"The United States became divided between slave states in the north and free states to the south. When new states were added, one of the major issues was whether the new state would legalize slavery or not. When Missouri wanted to become a state, many people were upset because it was a slave state. During the Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln gave the Emancipation Proclamation which declared that the slaves in the South were free. Although, this did not free all the slaves immediately, it set the precedence for all slaves to be set free.",
"After the Revolutionary War, abolitionist laws and sentiment gradually spread in the Northern states; in addition, as most of these states had a higher proportion of free labor, they abolished slavery by the end of the 18th century, some with gradual systems that did not free the last slave until the late 1820s. The United States was polarized over the issue of slavery, represented by the slave and free states divided by the Mason–Dixon line, which separated free Pennsylvania from slave Maryland and Delaware."

"Keep in mind, it does not matter whether the money you owe is for federal or state taxes. If you’re behind on your state tax bill, the state government can either seize your state refund, or apply to the IRS to seize money from your federal refund. 2.",
"No. If you owe back taxes, the government will automatically take out what you owed last year from what you get refunded this year.",
"If you get a $1000 tax refund for the previous year it’s really only worth about $985! By letting the government hold your money you’ve lost $15 in spending power! That doesn’t seem like a good deal.",
"Claim a refund. You risk losing your refund if you don't file your return. If you are due a refund for withholding or estimated taxes, you must file your return to claim it within 3 years of the return due date. The same rule applies to a right to claim tax credits such as the Earned Income Credit.",
"Back Taxes. If you owe back taxes, the IRS can take your current tax refund to offset what you owe. Until you clear up the matter, your tax refund is subject to seizure. The IRS does allow payment plans and settlements.",
"Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: If the loan is funded by the government they will take your entire refund check until the debt is paid off. For example, if you owe $10,000 & your returns are only $2,000 a year you won't see a tax return for the next five years. What I would do is contact who the loan is through & request that they do not take your tax return. Speak to them & work out some kind of agreement. Tell them you will send them $100 a month.",
"The government has a legal right to that money, and can take it. If you want to make sure you get the refund you are entitled to, you need to make sure you are up to date in paying what you owe to the government.

"Carob is a legume that comes from the carob tree (Ceratonia siliqua), an evergreen tree native to the Mediterranean (it is actually a shrub that is trained into tree form by pruning). Today it is also grown in other warm climates including Florida and the southwestern United States. Carob is a chocolate lovers delight as it is not only delicious, but low in fat and calories, caffeine-free, and lacks the health risks of chocolate. Please give carob a try. Different carob products taste differently, as some taste more chocolate-like than others.",
"Introducing carob, a magical alternative to chocolate and safe for all ages. Carob is a legume, that grows on the Ceratonia siliqua or carob tree. These pods contain a sweet, edible pulp, that we know as carob. In its raw state it has a texture that is soft and sticky, similar to that of toffee. Carob is a good source of fibre, which can help to promote proper elimination. Carob also has binding qualities once it has reached the colon, and has the ability to draw water to itself. This is useful in cases of diarrhea. Carob has a mildly sweet, caramel/chocolate flavor.",
"In addition to not having the negative effects of chocolate, carob is very nutritious. Carob contains as much Vitamin B1 as asparagus or strawberries; as much niacin as lima beans, lentils, or peas; and more Vitamin A than eggplant, asparagus, and beets. Carob is a chocolate lovers delight as it is not only delicious, but low in fat and calories, caffeine-free, and lacks the health risks of chocolate. Please give carob a try. Different carob products taste differently, as some taste more chocolate-like than others.",
"Carob has many health benefits over chocolate -- it is lower in fat, calories and caffeine content. Carob is naturally sweet, meaning it does not require added sugar like chocolate, and contains only 13 calories per tablespoon. Carob is a common substitute for chocolate, preferred by many consumers as a dairy-free alternative. According to a study from Purdue University, carob also boasts numerous health benefits for the body and can be a more nutritious option than chocolate.",
"1 The carob powder is used as a substitute for cocoa powder or chocolate in cakes, cookies and candies. 2 Hot beverages are made using carob powder, instead of coffee. 3 For making cookies and muffins, carob chips are used in place of chocolate chips. 1 Carob forms an important commercial stabilizer and thickener in bakery goods, ice cream, jelly, salad dressings, cheese, bologna, sauces, salami, canned meats, fish, mustard and other food products. 2 ",
"While unsweetened carob powder may be naturally sweeter than cocoa powder, carob is not as flavorful as chocolate. To substitute carob powder for cocoa powder, replace one part cocoa with 2-1/2 parts carob powder by weight. Carob chips can easily be substituted for chocolate chips in recipes. Carob is naturally sweeter than cocoa powder, but it can't compete with the flavor of chocolate. Check out these candy pictures. Maja Schon. Q. Please tell me the differences between carob and chocolate and the advantages, if any, of carob over",
"Carob is different from chocolate, in that it contains no caffeine, and no theobromine. The caffeine and theobromine content of chocolate is what gives it its controversial status in the health and wellness worlds. It has been reported the theobromine is a neurotoxin. Carob is a good source of fibre, which can help to promote proper elimination. Carob also has binding qualities once it has reached the colon, and has the ability to draw water to itself.

"Ounce for ounce, then, a candy bar made with carob has about the same amount of fat and calories as a chocolate bar, although the taste and texture are different. However, unlike cocoa powder and chocolate, carob is caffeine-free. Carob is naturally sweeter than cocoa powder, but it can't compete with the flavor of chocolate. Check out these candy pictures. Maja Schon. Q. Please tell me the differences between carob and chocolate and the advantages, if any, of carob over",
"Carob: has no caffeine or other stimulants. If someone is sensitive to caffeine or theobromine (some people get headaches, acne or very jittery), then it makes sense to avoid chocolate. Carob-although not a substitute-can be made into similar kinds of treats as chocolate (brownies, cookies, etc). Carob: it's definitely a different flavor than chocolate, but it's delicious, too! I think the problem is when people expect carob to be a chocolate substitute, and to taste similar. It doesn't. It might look similar, but it has its own unique flavor.",
"A. Carob is a tropical pod that contains a sweet, edible pulp and inedible seeds. After drying, the pulp is roasted and ground into a powder that resembles cocoa powder, but does not have the same flavor and texture of chocolate. Carob is naturally sweeter than cocoa powder, but it can't compete with the flavor of chocolate. Check out these candy pictures. Maja Schon. Q.

"Stretching a muscle to the full extent of your ability and holding it for 15 to 30 seconds is what's called a static stretch, and there's no harm in stretching that way as long you don't stretch until it hurts.",
"A Dr. Harris McIlwain, MD, Rheumatology, answered. Gently stretch as far as you can, hold the stretch for 30 seconds, and then ease back. Studies show that holding a stretch for 30 seconds produces the same result as holding it for 60 seconds. You will feel a gentle stretch but should not have pain or discomfort. As your muscle adapts, the stretch feeling will diminish.",
"Static, active, passive and isometric stretching all involve non-movement during the stretch. Maintain each stretch for about 30 seconds. Holding the position for a longer period increases your chances of tearing the muscle. Holding a stretch for as much as 10 seconds less will make your time efforts less effective.",
"People can be told to hold stretches from “a few seconds” to “a few minutes”, and very definite time periods in-between. There is a body of evidence that suggests stretch receptors disengage after approximately 30 seconds of stretching. The standard 3 x 30 seconds on that basis is therefore well considered.",
"The best way to stretch is to warm up for at least 5 to 10 minutes before you stretch. It can be dangerous to stretch a cold muscle. Once you’re ready to stretch, hold the stretch for 5 seconds, release for 5 seconds, and then execute again, holding for 10-30 seconds. Repeat two or three times. And definitely don’t hearken back to the 80s and bounce.",
