"AHP is a patented synergistic blend of commonly used, safe ingredients that when combined with low levels of hydrogen peroxide dramatically increase its germicidal potency and cleaning performance. ",
"The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is a structured technique for organizing and analyzing complex decisions, based on mathematics and psychology. It was developed by Thomas L. Saaty in the 1970s and has been extensively studied and refined since then. The first step in the analytic hierarchy process is to model the problem as a hierarchy. In doing this, participants explore the aspects of the problem at levels from general to detailed, then express it in the multileveled way that the AHP requires.",
"Adjustment of the attribute scales proceeds until the satisfactory optimal probability is achieved. AHP is a simpler form of MAUT where the paired comparisons are used to derive the utility functions represented by the priority or weight vector from contributing criteria and alternatives in the hierarchy. Despite AHP’s criticisms, the methodology has been popular, fairly simple to apply, and is the leading approach used for multi-criteria decision-making [14]. Other decision-making alternatives have limitations similar to AHP. NASA used AHP to design mission-success factors for human MARS Exploration [18].",
"While it can be used by individuals working on straightforward decisions, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is most useful where teams of people are working on complex problems, especially those with high stakes, involving human perceptions and judgments, whose resolutions have long-term repercussions. The first step in the analytic hierarchy process is to model the problem as a hierarchy. In doing this, participants explore the aspects of the problem at levels from general to detailed, then express it in the multileveled way that the AHP requires.",
"Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is one of Multi Criteria decision making method that was originally developed by Prof. Thomas L. Saaty. In short, it is a method to derive ratio scales from paired comparisons. The input can be obtained from actual measurement such as price, weight etc., or from subjective opinion such as satisfaction feelings and preference. AHP allow some small inconsistency in judgment because human is not always consistent. You may observe that the number of comparisons is a combination of the number of things to be compared. Since we have 3 objects (Apple, Banana and Cheery), we have 3 comparisons. Table below shows the number of",
"AHP 1 © Pearson Education Limited 2004 THE ANALYTIC HIERARCHY PROCESS (AHP) INTRODUCTION The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is due to Saaty (1980) and is often referred to, eponymously, as the Saaty method. The AHP is sometimes sadly misused and the analysis stops with the calculation of the eigenvector from the pairwise comparisons of relative importance (sometimes without even computing the CR!) but the AHP’s true subtlety lies in the fact that it is, as its name says, a Hierarchy process.",
"SESUG 2012 1 Paper SD-04 Decision-Making using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and SAS/IML ® Melvin Alexander, Social Security Administration, Baltimore, MD ABSTRACT SAS/IML ® can be used to implement the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). Despite AHP’s criticisms, the methodology has been popular, fairly simple to apply, and is the leading approach used for multi-criteria decision-making [14]. Other decision-making alternatives have limitations similar to AHP. NASA used AHP to design mission-success factors for human MARS Exploration [18].",
"An AHP hierarchy is a structured means of modeling the decision at hand. It consists of an overall goal, a group of options or alternatives for reaching the goal, and a group of factors or criteria that relate the alternatives to the goal. The first step in the analytic hierarchy process is to model the problem as a hierarchy. In doing this, participants explore the aspects of the problem at levels from general to detailed, then express it in the multileveled way that the AHP requires.",
"Complete this section of the AHP Award Modification form if there is a change to basic project information including project name, location, sponsor, or member. Provide an explanation of the request. If a proposed change impacts a project’s scoring element, complete Section II. Only Bank members may submit AHP grant applications. Affordable housing developers and community organizations interested in competing for AHP funds in the next annual funding competition should contact a Bank member early in their planning process about partnering on an application.",
"The design of any AHP hierarchy will depend not only on the nature of the problem at hand, but also on the knowledge, judgments, values, opinions, needs, wants, etc. of the participants in the decision-making process. The first step in the analytic hierarchy process is to model the problem as a hierarchy. In doing this, participants explore the aspects of the problem at levels from general to detailed, then express it in the multileveled way that the AHP requires."

"A person with genotype AB has type AB blood, and a person with genotype OO has type O blood. A person with type A blood cannot receive type B blood. The reason is immunological. A person with type A blood does not have type B antigens; thus, his immune system considers the type B antigen to be foreign and attacks it. A person with type A blood can't receive type AB blood, either, for the same reason. He can, however, accept",
"A blood test of either type AB or type O is more informative. Someone with blood type AB must have both the A and B alleles. The genotype must be AB. Someone with blood type O has neither the A nor the B allele. The genotype must be OO. A blood test is used to determine whether the A and/or B characteristics are present in a blood sample. It is not possible to determine the exact genotype from a blood test result of either type A or type B. If someone has blood type A, they must have at least one copy of the A allele, but they could have two copies. Their genotype is either AA or AO. Similarly, someone who is blood type B could have a genotype of either BB or B",
"ABO blood type system. The ABO system consists of A, B, AB, and O blood types. People with type A have antibodies in the blood against type B. People with type B have antibodies in the blood against type A. People with AB have no anti-A or anti-B antibodies. People with type O have both anti-A and anti-B antibodies. People with type AB blood are called universal recipients, because they can receive any of the ABO types. People with type O blood are called universal donors, because their blood can be given to people with any of the ABO types.",

"The results of blood typing will determine if a person is type A, B, AB, or O and if he or she is Rh negative or positive. The results will tell the healthcare provider what blood or blood components will be safe for the person to receive. 1 For example, people with blood group O have both anti-A and anti-B antibodies in their blood. 2 If a unit of blood that is group A, B, or AB is transfused to this person, the antibodies in the recipient's blood will react with the red blood cells, destroying them and causing potentially serious complications.",
"The A and B alleles are dominant to the O allele. When both inherited alleles are O, the genotpye is homozygous recessive and the blood type is O. When one of the inherited alleles is A and the other is B, the genotype is heterozygous and the blood type is AB. AB blood type is an example of co-dominance since both traits are expressed equally. 1 Type A: The genotype is either AA or AO. 2 Type B: The genotype is either BB or BO. 3 Type AB: The genotype is AB. 4 Type O: The genotype is OO. There are four main ABO blood type groupings: A, B, AB, and O. These blood groups are determined by the antigen on the blood cell surface and the antibodies present in the blood plasma.

"• The main difference between the endocrine gland and exocrine gland is that, an endocrine gland lacks ducts and remains as blocks of tissue. • So, endocrine gland secrets chemical substances directly to the blood stream, while exocrine gland secrets its product into a duct. Gland is a specific structure which secrets various chemical substances such as enzymes, hormones, and metabolites. There are two types of glands in the body called endocrine glands and exocrine glands.",
"What is the difference between an endocrine and exocrine gland? a. endocrine glands use ducts to release their secretions, exocrine glands are ductless c. exocrine glands can secrete sweat, endocrine. ",
"Summary: 1. Exocrine glands have ducts to carry hormones, while endocrine glands are ductless. 2. Exocrine hormones are released into the external environment, or outside of the body. Endocrine hormones are released into the internal environment, or inside of the body. 3. Exocrine glands have sub-classifications. 4. Endocrine response is slower because hormones travel through the blood. 5.",
"Differences Between Endocrine vs Exocrine Glands. Gland is a specific structure which secrets various chemical substances such as enzymes, hormones, and metabolites. There are two types of glands in the body called endocrine glands and exocrine glands.",
"Exocrine Glands. Exocrine gland is a gland that secretes chemical substances into ducts. As an example, sweat gland and salivary glands. In salivary glands, saliva is produced within the gland, and it secrets into saliva duct and travels to the surface. Gland is a specific structure which secrets various chemical substances such as enzymes, hormones, and metabolites. There are two types of glands in the body called endocrine glands and exocrine glands.",
"Endocrine glands: these are glands that secrete their hormones directly into the blood rather than through a duct. Examples include-the thyroid gland, adrenal gland, and pituitary gland. Exocrine glands: these glands secrete enzymes into ducts. Examples include-sweat glands, salivary glands. They secrete what is called hormone. The hormone is released in the blood stream and is circulated in the blood where it finds a particular organ, called target organ, to which goes and influences its physiology. An exocrine gland has duct, which is the conduit for the release of products produced by it.",
"Endocrine Glands Vs Exocrine Glands. By definition, an endocrine gland is one that secretes its hormones directly into the bloodstream from where it is transported to the target cells, tissues or organs to bring about its effects. Endocrine glands are also often referred to as ductless glands. On the other hand, an exocrine gland is a gland that secretes its hormones into a system of ducts that lead to the external environment. As a result, exocrine glands are commonly known as duct glands. "

When you ovulate (or release an egg from your ovary), that egg has a chance of getting fertilized. When that egg gets fertilized, you're pregnant! You're most fertile from two to three days before you ovulate through the day of ovulation.",
"When pregnancy occurs, there may be a dip in temperature at the time of implantation, usually five to seven days after ovulation, and an additional rise in temperature of 0.3 to 0.5 degree Fahrenheit after 12 to 14 days post-ovulation. In its simplest form, BBT charting consists of taking your waking temperature daily, recording it onto a graph, and reading the results to confirm whether or not ovulation has occurred. BBT charting was first identified in the 1930s by proponents of the rhythm method of birth control.",
"Typically, after you ovulate your BBT will stay elevated for about 12 days. If you notice a dip in basal body temperature after ovulation, this may indicate a problem. You may have a short luteal phase or a luteal phase defect. This may cause problems if you are trying to have a baby.",
"For those that chart their basal body temperature (BBT) , an implantation dip could be an early indication of pregnancy. As you know, ovulation can be detected on a basal body temperature chart by a slight shift in temperature midway through your cycle. It occurred for them at 6 DPO, six days past ovulation. You could see an implantation dip as early as 6 DPO or as late as 12 DPO. Basically what you are looking for is a dip in your basal body temperature.",
"Your fertility is highest during the two days before ovulation and the day it occurs, but your basal body temperature changes 12 to 24 hours after ovulation. Since the egg only lives one day, by the time BBT indicates ovulation there’s little fertile time left to conceive. Because the spike in body temperature at ovulation is so small, you need a special basal thermometer (available at drugstores for about $10 to $15) to measure it. A basal thermometer records temperatures in one-tenth of a degree increments instead of the two-tenth increments on fever thermometers.",
"By charting your BBT every day, you can detect the day you ovulate by looking for a slight temperature rise that will remain elevated after ovulation. While with a regular chart, your temps will remain elevated, with an implantation dip, your chart will show a one-day drop in temperature. It occurred for them at 6 DPO, six days past ovulation. You could see an implantation dip as early as 6 DPO or as late as 12 DPO. Basically what you are looking for is a dip in your basal body",
"All about Basal Body Temperature (BBT). Understand the role of BBT in fertility charting. Learn how to use BBT to detect ovulation. Basal Body Temperature (BBT) is your body temperature at rest (wake up time). BBT rises after ovulation due to increased progesterone released from the corpus luteum after ovulation.",
"No. Many people do see a dip the day of ovulation, but many people do not. A temperature dip cannot confirm ovulation. More important than observing a dip, is seeing a temperature rise after ovulation. Your temperature rises in response to the presence of the heat-inducing hormone progesterone, which is only released after ovulation. If you are lucky enough to have advanced warning of ovulation in the form of a temperature dip, take advantage and be sure to have intercourse that day",
"Charting Basal Body Temperature. Charting your basal body temperature, or BBT, is the easiest way to determine if you tend to have a dip in basal body temperature after ovulation. While you can keep track of this on a regular sheet of paper, it is much simpler to do if you have a BBT record form, which can be purchased or found for free online. If you notice a dip in basal body temperature after ovulation, this may indicate a problem. You may have a short luteal phase or a luteal phase defect. This may cause problems if you are trying to have a baby.",
"Low temperatures are observed before ovulation and higher temperatures are recorded after ovulation. Your BBT, or basal body temperature, is your body temperature at rest as measured in the morning after at least three hours of sleep, before you get up, with a special BBT thermometer that you can buy at your drugstore. Learn how to use BBT to detect ovulation. Basal Body Temperature (BBT) is your body temperature at rest (wake up time).

"I've been using the generic brand of zoloft (sertraline) for about 6 months now. My doctor started me with the minimum dosage (25 mg) and I am currently up to 100 mg. I didn't have any troubles with 25, 50 or 75 mg. But I had a little bit of gitters and agitation for the first couple of days on 100. It's always best to just follow what you doctor is prescribing, BUT I will say that even for a med sensitive person 25Mgs per day of Zoloft is most often not a normal theraputic dosage. Theraputic dosgaes of Zoloft (sertraline) range from 50Mgs up to 200Mgs a day depending on many factors.",
"The recommended starting dose of Zoloft for people with panic disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), or social anxiety disorder is Zoloft 25 mg once a day. After a week, your healthcare provider will likely increase the dose to 50 mg of Zoloft once a day. He or she may also choose to increase the Zoloft dosage if symptoms continue, or decrease the dose if side effects occur.",
"Although the starting dose for people with panic disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, or social anxiety disorder is typically 25 mg daily, healthcare providers often increase that dose to 50 mg daily. After a week, your healthcare provider will likely increase the dose to 50 mg of Zoloft once a day. He or she may also choose to increase the Zoloft dosage if symptoms continue, or decrease the dose if side effects occur.",
"While a relationship between dose and effect has not been established for major depressive disorder, OCD, panic disorder, PTSD or social anxiety disorder, patients were dosed in a range of 50-200 mg/day in the clinical trials demonstrating the effectiveness of ZOLOFT for the treatment of these indications. Systematic evaluation of ZOLOFT has demonstrated that its efficacy in social anxiety disorder is maintained for periods of up to 24 weeks following 20 weeks of treatment at a dose of 50-200 mg/day (see Clinical Trials under CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY).",
"Here, the medication doses were high. In adults, the standard Zoloft dose for depression is 50 mg daily. A number of patients in my practice have done well on 25 mg. To treat anxiety, the starting doses tend to be low; at first, antidepressants can increase anxiety. But for unknown reasons, the final dose, to mitigate anxiety, can be substantial. Again, in my clinical experience, for the more routine forms of anxiety often modest doses suffice. But in the current study of anxiety in children, the average Zoloft dose was between 133 and 146 mg daily. The children started at 25 mg, with the dose raised weekly as needed up to the eighth week of the study.",
"The recommended starting dose of Zoloft for children ages 6 to 12 with OCD is Zoloft 25 mg once daily, while the starting dose for adolescents ages 13 to 17 is Zoloft 50 mg once daily. Your child's healthcare provider may choose to increase the dosage if symptoms continue, or decrease it if Zoloft side effects occur. ",
"Maintenance doses for the treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder with Zoloft range from 50 mg to 200 mg per day. Changes in dosage should not occur at intervals of less than one week because of the long elimination half-life of Zoloft of 24 hours. A: Zoloft (sertraline) is a type of antidepressant known as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). It is commonly used to treat depression, social anxiety disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), panic disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).",
"If a 100 mg/day dose has been established with luteal phase dosing, a 50 mg/day titration step for three days should be utilized at the beginning of each luteal phase dosing period. ZOLOFT should be administered once daily, either in the morning or evening. Systematic evaluation of ZOLOFT has demonstrated that its efficacy in social anxiety disorder is maintained for periods of up to 24 weeks following 20 weeks of treatment at a dose of 50-200 mg/day (see Clinical Trials under CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY).",
"Patients not responding to a 50 mg dose may benefit from dose increases up to a maximum of 200 mg/day. Given the 24 hour elimination half-life of ZOLOFT, dose changes should not occur at intervals of less than 1 week. Systematic evaluation of ZOLOFT has demonstrated that its efficacy in social anxiety disorder is maintained for periods of up to 24 weeks following 20 weeks of treatment at a dose of 50-200 mg/day (see Clinical Trials under CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY).",
"Dosage of Zoloft for Depression or Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. The recommended starting Zoloft dose for people with depression or obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is Zoloft 50 mg once a day. After a week, your healthcare provider will likely increase the dose to 50 mg of Zoloft once a day. He or she may also choose to increase the Zoloft dosage if symptoms continue, or decrease the dose if side effects occur."

"So even if a very safe and effective Lyme vaccine were developed for dogs, having your dog vaccinated for Lyme isn't going to lessen the need for tick prevention. So it's hard to make the risk vs. benefit analysis for Lyme vaccination come out on the benefit side, no matter how you work the math. For information on Lyme and all other tick diseases in dogs, there is no better resource anywhere than the Tick-L discussion list. In my opinion, the Lyme vaccine does not actually provide enough benefit to outweigh its substantial risks, despite the seriousness of canine Lyme Disease. The Lyme vaccine can cause an untreatable form of Lyme disease and, like all bacterial diseases, provides short term immunity.",
"Lyme disease dog vaccines are a basis for controversy in the veterinary world. When seeking means of prevention against tick bites and Lyme disease, a vaccination may seem like a viable option. Before making the decision to vaccinate your dog against this potentially deadly disease, there are a few points you should keep in mind. While you may successfully protect against some forms of Lyme disease, this does not prevent a tick from biting the dog and potentially transmitting viruses such as ehrlichia, Rocky Mountains Spotted Fever or babesiosis.",
"Lyme Disease in Dogs. Lyme disease is transmitted when an infected tick bites a dog and transfers the virus into the dog's bloodstream. Many dogs with healthy immune systems can fight off the virus naturally and never experience symptoms. While you may successfully protect against some forms of Lyme disease, this does not prevent a tick from biting the dog and potentially transmitting viruses such as ehrlichia, Rocky Mountains Spotted Fever or babesiosis.",
"There are other diseases that can be transmitted by tick bites—Lyme vaccine does not prevent those other infections. Tick control for all dogs in tick-infested locations is more important than vaccination. That is a great question. Unfortunately, veterinarians do not have a complete answer when it comes to the vaccine’s effectiveness. Some research suggests that vaccination appears to be fairly good in preventing infection in dogs not previously exposed to the Lyme organism.",
"3) Vaccination for Lyme disease. We have a highly effective Lyme vaccine that can be given to pets 9 weeks and older. Although some studies indicate our Lyme vaccine is nearly 100% efficacious, we also recommend using a tick prevention product as outlined above. Previous vaccination for Lyme disease does not interfere with these test results (a vaccinated dog will not be positive for Lyme simply because it has received the Lyme vaccine in the past). It takes a few weeks from the time of exposure for the development of a positive antibody Lyme test.",
"Diagnosing Lyme in Dogs There is a new test for Lyme disease in dogs, known as the Canine SNAP 3Dx or the C6 SNAP test, which tests for C6 antibodies to Lyme disease, and also tests for heartworm disease and ehrlichia canis, another tick borne disease. In my opinion, the Lyme vaccine does not actually provide enough benefit to outweigh its substantial risks, despite the seriousness of canine Lyme Disease. The Lyme vaccine can cause an untreatable form of Lyme disease and, like all bacterial diseases, provides short term immunity.",
"Unfortunately, there is no real nexus between the seriousness of a disease and the effectiveness or safety of a vaccine for that disease. In my opinion, the Lyme vaccine does not actually provide enough benefit to outweigh its substantial risks, despite the seriousness of canine Lyme Disease. The Lyme vaccine can cause an untreatable form of Lyme disease and, like all bacterial diseases, provides short term immunity.",
"Print. Email. You ask about the benefits of the canine vaccine against Lyme disease. That is a great question. Unfortunately, veterinarians do not have a complete answer when it comes to the vaccine’s effectiveness. Some research suggests that vaccination appears to be fairly good in preventing infection in dogs not previously exposed to the Lyme organism.",
"Lyme vaccine is an immunization that helps prevent Lyme disease from being passed to your dog. Lyme disease is caused by a spirochete bacterial strain called Borrelia burgdorferi that passes to your dog through the bite of certain types of ticks. While Lyme disease can be passed to your dog, Lyme vaccine typically is not recommended unless you live in an area with a high tick population. Treatment for Lyme disease is easy and relatively inexpensive, compared to the complications your dog is exposed to if vaccinated against the disease."

"Estimates of the prevalence for keratoconus range from 1 in 500 to 1 in 2000 people, but difficulties with differential diagnosis cause uncertainty as to its prevalence.

"History [edit | edit source]. The majority of cases of keratoconus are bilateral, and often asymmetric. The less affected eye may show a high amount of astigmatism or mild steepening. Onset is typically in early adolescence and progresses into the mid-20’s and 30’s. However, cases may begin much earlier or later in life. Early signs of Keratoconus include: • Asymmetric refracive error with high or progressive astigmatism. • Keratometry showing high astigmatism and irreguality (axis that do not add to 180 degrees). • Scissoring of the red reflex on ophthalmoscopy or retinoscopy.",
"Keratoconus (KC, KTCN) (from Greek: kerato-horn, cornea; and konos cone) is a degenerative disorder of the eye in which structural changes within the cornea cause it to thin and change to a more conical shape than the more normal gradual curve.

"The germination time for grass seed ranges from 5 to 30 days depending on the variety. It can be even longer than this in cooler temperatures. This is how long it will take to actually see the grass growing. Until this point, the seed, or the soil and mulch in contact with the seed, must stay moist. It doesn’t need to be soggy or swimming, but moist. Once the new grass is visible, the roots are also growing down into the soil.",
"Considerations. If the grass seed doesn't germinate as fast as expected, it may be because it is lacking the proper water dosage. Soaking the seeds will cause them to become water-logged and perhaps rot. They also can float away, causing gaps in a new lawn. Too little water can cause them to dry and die",
"When you plant grass seeds, it is important to match the grass species to your local climate and plant the seeds at the correct time and rate. To get a rough idea how long for your lawn to get established, add 30 to 45 days to the germination time. Hard fescue (Festuca longifolia) and red fescue (Festuca rubra) seeds take seven to 14 days. Plant 7 to 9 pounds of annual ryegrass seed or 6 to 9 pounds of perennial ryegrass per 1,000 square feet in the fall.",

"Replanting New Grass Seed. Grass is a fast growing plant, but the exact rate at which it grows depends upon the type of grass used and the growing conditions. Germination. Grass seeds usually germinate between seven and ten days after they have been sown, although it can take between three and thirty days. Growth. A fast growing variety of grass sown under good growing conditions will produce a green covering in about a week, although it will not yet be properly established. Most varieties should produce visible results within about two weeks. Grass takes several weeks or months to become fully established. Seeds sown in mid spring should be well established before the summer, while seeds sown at the beginning of fall should be growing well by the first frosts.",
"If stored in a cool, dry place, grass seed can last for 2-3 years. However, the germination rate (the number of seeds that will grow) will decrease over time, so you may not get the same results you would if you were using fresh seed. For best results, use fresh product and try to plant it within a year. The length of time varies by grass type. The product package should tell you how long it will take for your new grass to begin growing. For the general guidelines used by Scotts experts, click here.",
"How long does it take for seed to grow. Different seed mixtures establish at different speeds. As a general rule, hardwearing mixtures usually contain ryegrass and red fescue, two species that establish quite quickly-they can germinate in as little as 3-4 days, but 7-10 days is more average.",
"Concerning how long does grass seed take to grow, if the conditions are good and the variety of grass used is of the type that grows fast, within a week’s time the result may be a lush green patch in the lawn. While it may not be properly grown yet the visible result may take about two to three weeks. The normal duration at which the seed of the grass germinates is between 6 to 10 days after the seed has been planted. However it can also take from minimum 4 days to maximum forty days. The climate condition during which the seed is sown is also very essential for the seeds to germinate faster and to grow. The seed of the grass germinates faster with the availability of proper light, water and nutrition of soil. Excess of heat, over irrigation and over-use of pesticides and insecticides may kill the germination. A temperate and warm condition is most favorable for no matter how long does grass seed take to grow.",
"Buffalograss (Stenotaphrum secundatum) seeds take 14 to 30 days to germinate. Plant 1 pound of Bermudagrass seeds per 1,000 square feet in late spring or early summer. For the same area, plant 1 1/2 to 2 pounds of buffalo grass in spring or fall. Hard fescue (Festuca longifolia) and red fescue (Festuca rubra) seeds take seven to 14 days.

"Properties of Concrete Concrete is an artificial conglomerate stone made essentially of Portland cement, water, and aggregates. Properties of Concrete While cement in one form or another has been around for centuries, the type we use was invented in 1824 in Britain. It was named Portland cement because it looked like the stone quarried on the Isle of Portland. Stages of hydration: Properties of Concrete Range in proportions of materials used in concrete, by absolute volume. Bars 1 and 3 represent rich mixes with small size",
"Therefore, the properties of a good cement must be investigated. Although desirable cement properties may vary depending on the type of construction, generally a good cement possesses following properties (which depend upon its chemical composition, thoroughness of burning and fineness of grinding). 1 Provides strength to masonry. 2 Stiffens or hardens early. 3 Possesses good plasticity. 4 An excellent building 5 ... Easi",
"A cement is a binder, a substance that sets and hardens and can bind other materials together. The word cement can be traced back to the Roman term opus caementicium, used to describe masonry resembling modern concrete that was made from crushed rock with burnt lime as binder. The most important uses of cement are as a component in the production of mortar in masonry, and of concrete, a combination of cement and an aggregate to form a strong building material.",
"All things being equal, concrete with a lower water-cement (cementitious) ratio makes a stronger concrete than that with a higher ratio. The total quantity of cementitious materials (portland cement, slag cement, pozzolans) can affect strength, water demand, shrinkage, abrasion resistance and density. The elasticity of concrete is relatively constant at low stress levels but starts decreasing at higher stress levels as matrix cracking develops. Concrete has a very low coefficient of thermal expansion, and as it matures concrete shrinks.",
"Properties of Cement Concrete. The cement concrete possesses the following important properties: 1 It possesses a high compressive strength. 2 It is a corrosion resistance material and atmospheric agent has no appreciable effect on it. 3 It hardens with age the process of hardening continues for a long time after the concrete has attained sufficient strength. 4 It is more economical ...",
"It's important to note that cement is only one component of three concrete properties and the term concrete is a mixture of the three. Concrete properties consist of three basic components: water, aggregate (rocks and sand), and portland cement. Cement, usually in powder form, acts as a binding agent when mixed with water and aggregates. 2. Water-Water is needed to form a chemical reaction with the cement (hydration) to form heat. This starts the drying and hardening process. Water is also used to provide workability with the concrete. The amount of water in the mix in pounds compared with the amount of cement is called the water/cement ratio.",
"The properties of such a concrete would be less than that of a wet concrete. The reaction of water with the cement in concrete is extremely important to its properties and reactions may continue for many years. This very important reaction will be discussed in detail in this section. Aggregates are chemically inert, solid bodies held together by the cement. Aggregates come in various shapes, sizes, and materials ranging from fine particles of sand to large, coarse rocks. Because cement is the most expensive ingredient in making concrete, it is desirable to minimize the amount of cement used."

"Full Definition of LEGISLATIVE. 1. a: having the power or performing the function of legislating b: belonging to the branch of government that is charged with such powers as making laws, levying and collecting taxes, and making financial appropriations — compare executive, judicial. 2.",
"When the legislature delegates broad lawmaking powers to an administrative agency, the popular control provided by direct election of decision makers is absent—but this does not mean that administrative agencies are free from political accountability. Federal administrative agencies must be responsive to legislative and executive oversight mechanisms. During the 1970s, many members of Congress began to feel that the normal process of legislation was too cumbersome for effective control of administrative action.",
"Most decisions that administrators take as part of their official functions are of an administrative nature. There is necessarily a public character to the phrase. The relationship is one of inequality or subordination. It excludes decisions made in the exercise of legislative and judicial power. The Constitution is the supreme law of the land. Any law or act which is inconsistent with it has no force or effect. The effect of this provision is that laws and administrative acts must comply with the Constitution. The Constitution is binding on the executive branch of government in every sphere of administration",
"Administrative law is the body of law that allows for the creation of public regulatory agencies and contains all of the statutes, judicial decisions, and regulations that govern them. It is created by administrative agencies to implement their powers and duties in the form of rules, regulations, orders, and decisions. Administrative procedure constitutes the methods and processes before administrative agencies, as distinguished from judicial procedure, which applies to courts. Federal administrative agencies must be responsive to legislative and executive oversight mechanisms. During the 1970s, many members of Congress began to feel that the normal process of legislation was too cumbersome for effective control of administrative action.",
"Legislative Veto of Administrative Rules. An administrative rule is typically a regulation, standard or policy issued by an executive agency to implement statutory provisions administered by the agency. In many states, the number of regulations promulgated by executive agencies exceeds the number of statutes enacted by the legislature. In Mead v. Arnell, 791 P.2d 410 (Idaho 1990), the Idaho Supreme Court upheld the authority of the legislature to veto administrative rules through passage of a resolution that did not require the governor's signature.",
"For other uses, see Bureaucracy (disambiguation) . A bureaucracy (/bjuːˈrɒkrəsi/) is a body of non-elective government officials and/or an administrative policy-making group. Historically, bureaucracy was government administration managed by departments staffed with nonelected officials. Today, bureaucracy is the administrative system governing any large institution. Since being coined, the word bureaucracy has developed negative connotations. Bureaucracies have been criticized as being too complex, inefficient, or too inflexible.",
"The fundamental challenge of administrative law is in designing a system of checks that will minimize the risks of bureaucratic arbitrariness and overreaching, while preserving for the agencies the flexibility that they need in order to act effectively. Federal administrative agencies must be responsive to legislative and executive oversight mechanisms. During the 1970s, many members of Congress began to feel that the normal process of legislation was too cumbersome for effective control of administrative action.",
"The legislative history of a statute is a unique form of secondary legal authority. It is not binding on courts in the way that primary authority is. Federal and state constitutions, statutes, case law (judicial decisions), and agency regulations form the body of primary authority that courts use to resolve disputes. ",
"Administrative law encompasses laws and legal principles governing the administration and regulation of government agencies (both Federal and state). Such agencies are delegated power by Congress (or in the case of a state agency, the state legislature) to act as agents for the executive. Branch of law governing the creation and operation of administrative agencies. Of special importance are the powers granted to administrative agencies, the substantive rules that such agencies make, and the legal relationships between such agencies, other government bodies, and the public at large."

"Nit: Nits are lice eggs. They are generally easy to see in the seams of an infested person's clothing, particularly around the waistline and under armpits. Body lice nits occasionally also may be attached to body hair. They are oval and usually yellow to white in color. Body lice nits may take 1–2 weeks to hatch. Nymph: A nymph is an immature louse that hatches from the nit (egg). A nymph looks like an adult body louse, but is smaller. Nymphs mature into adults about 9–12 days after hatching. ",
"The eggs are glued to the hair shaft very close to the scalp. Head lice live only about 30 to 40 days. They die in 1 or 2 days when removed from the head, and eggs die soon after being removed from the warm scalp. Head lice do not wander about rugs, furniture, or school buses seeking a host. The eggs hatch in about 8 or 9 days. The newly hatched louse (nymph) will suck blood for food and shed its skin (molt) three times as it develops into an adult over a 10-day period. The young lice and adults live their entire lives on the head, feeding on blood. The entire life cycle takes about 3 weeks.",
"Life Cycle. The life cycle of a louse begins as an egg, also called a nit. The nit is a 1mm whitish-yellow speck that attaches itself firmly to an individual hair strand close to the scalp. After 7 to 10 days, the nit hatches and becomes what is known as a nymph, or a young louse. Don’t Worry. Getting rid of a case of head lice can be time-consuming and tedious, but it’s not a health hazard. Lice don’t carry disease and don’t harm the head or scalp. Prevent head lice by not sharing combs, hairbrushes, hair accessories, towels, bedding, hats, or scarves with a person infected with the parasite.",
"Pubic lice have three forms: the egg (also called a nit), the nymph, and the adult. Nit: Nits are lice eggs. They can be hard to see and are found firmly attached to the hair shaft. They are oval and usually yellow to white. Pubic lice nits take about 6–10 days to hatch. Nymph: The nymph is an immature louse that hatches from the nit (egg). A nymph looks like an adult pubic louse but it is smaller. Pubic lice nymphs take about 2–3 weeks after hatching to mature into adults capable of reproducing. ",
"As long as there’s a food source readily available, an adult louse can live for as long as 30 days on a human. However, this short lifespan is perpetuated by the constant laying of eggs. Female lice lay up to six eggs each day. Don’t Worry. Getting rid of a case of head lice can be time-consuming and tedious, but it’s not a health hazard. Lice don’t carry disease and don’t harm the head or scalp. Prevent head lice by not sharing combs, hairbrushes, hair accessories, towels, bedding, hats, or scarves with a person infected with the parasite.",
"Nymphs and fully mature adults can survive for only about a day without a food source. Adult lice can’t live past 24 hours or so on non-human surfaces such as carpets, hardwood flooring, clothing, furniture, sports helmets, headphones, or hair accessories. Don’t Worry. Getting rid of a case of head lice can be time-consuming and tedious, but it’s not a health hazard. Lice don’t carry disease and don’t harm the head or scalp. Prevent head lice by not sharing combs, hairbrushes, hair accessories, towels, bedding, hats, or scarves with a person infected with the parasite.",
"Adult head lice are about 1/8 inch long, grayish, flattened, and wingless. Their legs are claw-like, designed to hold onto hair. These lice excrete partially digested blood which can appear as 'black dandruff'. Lice eggs, commonly referred to as nits, are whitish, oval and the size of a pinhead (1/30 inch long). They are attached to hair near the scalp. Nits that are found further than 1/2 inch from the scalp nearly always have hatched or died. Young head lice (called nymphs) are mobile and molt three times, developing into mature adults in about three weeks. Adults can live for about four weeks but do not lay eggs until after seven days. Head lice do not survive off a host for more than one or two days. Head lice do not jump or fly.",
"One of the biggest causes of re-infestation is not getting the lice out of your environment. Lice will live up to 48 hours off your head, and nits will survive for up to 10 days on your sofa, your car seats, your bedding, etc. You must treat your head and your home environment to end a lice infestation in one day, and stop it from coming back. ",
"Use nit combs or cat flea combs to remove the lice and eggs. Because eggs can hatch for up to 10 days after they are laid, comb hair daily for two weeks after you find the last live head lice, to remove any young that have emerged. Young head lice (called nymphs) are mobile and molt three times, developing into mature adults in about three weeks. Adults can live for about four weeks but do not lay eggs until after seven days. Head lice do not survive off a host for more than one or two days. Head lice do not jump or fly."

"The bottom line is shelf life. The shelf life for an unrefrigerated egg is 7 to 10 days and for refrigerated, it's 30 to 45 days. A good rule of thumb is one day at room temperature is equal to one week under refrigeration.. Eggs purchased from grocery stores are typically already three weeks old, or older. ",
"After eggs are refrigerated, they need to stay that way. A cold egg left out at room temperature can sweat, facilitating the movement of bacteria into the egg and increasing the growth of bacteria. Refrigerated eggs should not be left out more than 2 hours. ",
"Expert answer: We tell consumers to look to the egg carton sell-by dates to judge freshness. The USDA says that the date can be no further ahead than 30 days after the packing date. Your store can choose any day within that 30 days to date the eggs. If you don't find a date on the carton, using the eggs within three weeks of the carton date should allow them to be used within optimum quality, meaning the yolk will be high and upstanding, and the white will be tall and firm"

"Here's a look at what causes hair to turn gray and some of the factors that affect graying. Answer: The age at which you'll get your first gray hair (assuming your hair doesn't simply fall out) is largely determined by genetics. You'll probably get that first strand of gray around the same age your parents and grandparents started to go gray. However, the rate at which the graying progresses is somewhat under your own control. Smoking is known to increase the rate of graying.",
"The Graying Process. With age, the pigment cells in a hair follicle gradually die off. As they do, that strand of hair will no longer grow in with as much color and will show up as more silver, gray or white as it continues to grow. Eventually, if all the pigment cells die, the hair grows in completely gray. "

Biodiversity loss has accelerated from just a few species going extinct each year to an estimated 1,000 species disappearing annually. The collective actions of seven billion people are degrading the natural resource base and threaten to erode development gains around the world.",
"Biodiversity is More than Just Species. Species diversity is only one part of biodiversity. To properly catalogue all the life on Earth, we also have to recognize the genetic diversity that exists within species as well as the diversity of entire habitats and ecosystems. Genetic Biodiversity is the variation in genes that exists within a species. ",
"Box 10.2 Aims of the OSPAR MPA network. Marine protected areas are areas for which protective, conservation, restorative or precautionary measures have been put in place to protect and conserve species, habitats, ecosystems or ecological processes of the marine environment on a temporary or permanent basis. The OSPAR network of MPAs has the following aims: 1 To protect, conserve and restore species, habitats and ecological processes which have been adversely affected as a result of human activities. 2 To protect, conserve and restore species, habitats and ecological processes which best represent the range of these features within the OSPAR maritime area."

"Lanczos kernels for the cases a = 2 and a = 3. Note that the function obtains negative values. The effect of each input sample on the interpolated values is defined by the filter's reconstruction kernel L(x) , called the Lanczos kernel. In the latter case it maps each sample of the given signal to a translated and scaled copy of the Lanczos kernel, which is a sinc function windowed by the central lobe of a second, longer, sinc function. The sum of these translated and scaled kernels is then evaluated at the desired points. Lanczos resampling is typically used to increase the sampling rate of a digital signal, or to shift it by a fraction of the sampling interval. It is often used also for multivariate interpolation, for example to resize or rotate a digital image",
"The block Lanczos method, to be described in this section, is a variation of the Lanczos procedure as presented in § 7.8. It uses block versions of the three-term recursions (7.34) and (7.33). As a general thrust, block algorithms substitute matrix block multiplies and block solvers for matrix-vector products and simple solvers in unblocked algorithms. In other words, higher level BLAS are used in the inner loop of the block algorithms",

"Onions are characterized by day length; long-day onion varieties will quit forming tops and begin to form bulbs when the daylength reaches 14 to 16 hours while short-day onions will start making bulbs much earlier in the year when there are only 10 to 12 hours of daylight. Preparing the Soil. Onions are best grown on raised beds at least four inches high and 20 inches wide. Onion growth and yield can be greatly enhanced by banding a fertilizer rich in phosphorous (10-20-10) 2 to 3 inches below transplants at planting time.",
"Yellow onions have a long shelf life. A staple in many kitchens, yellow onions are a high-yield crop; from a square-foot plot of earth you can harvest 20 to 50 onions. If you grow bulb onions from seed, the process will take up to two years. For a quicker crop, grow onions from sets, dormant baby bulbs, the size of a large pea, grown the prior year. Expect yellow onions to reach harvest around 100 days after you plant the sets. ",
"Part 2 of 2: Planting Your Onions. 1. Get the soil ready. When you’re ready to plant, till the soil about 6 inches (15.2 cm) deep and add a layer (1 cup per 20 feet) of phosphorous fertilizer. Using a mixture such as 10-20-10 or 0-20-0 will provide an extra boost for your developing onions. Give your onions about 1 inch (2.5 cm) of water per week, and supplement with a nitrogen fertilizer once a month for nutrients. One month after planting, add a layer of mulch between each plant to lock in moisture and block out weeds.",
"Green onions are generally ready for harvest in 20 to 30 days. Onion varieties differ in shape, size, flavor and color. Depending on the type of onion and whether you start plants from seed, transplants or sets, the time to maturity varies as well. It can take up to five months for plants to mature enough to harvest. When starting onion plants from seed, allow the soil temperature to warm to at least 50 degrees Fahrenheit before sowing.",
"Starting onion plants from seed takes the longest for onions to fully grow, but seeds give you the most choices in variety. It can take up to five months for plants to mature enough to harvest. When starting onion plants from seed, allow the soil temperature to warm to at least 50 degrees Fahrenheit before sowing. In areas with mild winters, you can plant varieties of short-day onions four weeks before the first frost in fall",
"The stem gets either small onions on it or flowers then seeds depending on the type it is. You plant the seeds or baby onions to get more. If you plant a whole onion with the root part down and the top just covered with dirt it will grow the green tops and then it will grow the seeds or baby onions. One year you will have seeds from the onion. The next year you will have onions from the seed",
"Onions are ready to harvest approximatly 150 days after planting seeds, and approximately 100 days after transplanting sets. Green or spring onions are pulled as needed when the stems are about 1/4 inch thick. Pull green onions anytime after the tops are 6 inches tall. Plant onions 1 inch deep and 3 to 4 inches apart in double rows, leaving 6 to 10 inches between rows. Be sure to leave enough room between rows to weed. If the onions are planted closer together, you can harvest every other plant as a green onion so that bulb development of the remaining plants is not impeded.",
"For a shorter period between planting and harvest, you may choose to start the onion seeds indoors eight to 12 weeks before the last frost date for your area and transplant seedlings outdoors when they grow to 1/4 inch in diameter, about two to four weeks before the last frost date for your area. It can take up to five months for plants to mature enough to harvest. When starting onion plants from seed, allow the soil temperature to warm to at least 50 degrees Fahrenheit before sowing."

Think of a secured card as your credit line training wheels that allow you the benefits of owning a credit card while giving you the opportunity to build a history of responsible credit use with on-time payments.",
"A secured credit card uses money you place in a security deposit account as collateral. Your credit line is based on your income, ability to pay and the amount of your cash collateral deposit. For example, if you put $1,000 into the deposit account, your available credit line will be $1,000 if you have sufficient income and can demonstrate your ability to pay. (Note that a secured credit card is not the same thing as a prepaid card. Your initial deposit is simply collateral and doesn't count toward payments.) A security deposit gives lenders the confidence that you will pay them back, even if you have damaged credit or no credit history. A secured credit card can help you build or re-establish your credit. However, if you default on your payments, the card issuer may keep your deposit. This means that making your monthly payments on time is just as crucial with a secured credit card as with a traditional card.",
"Monthly Bills. Payments on a secured card also work like an unsecured card does, even though you’ve already funded the credit line. You get a bill every month, either in the mail or electronically, and pay the balance. If you can pay only the minimum, you’ll then accrue interest on the remaining amount. Paying for Purchases. At the point of sale, a secured card works exactly like an unsecured card. You swipe it at a merchant location or type the number into the form for an e-commerce site, and the transaction goes through if you have enough money remaining on your credit line.",

"The effects of global warming are the environmental and social changes caused (directly or indirectly) by human emissions of greenhouse gases. There is a scientific consensus that climate change is occurring, and that human activities are the primary driver. From 1961 to 2003, the global ocean temperature has risen by 0.10 °C from the surface to a depth of 700 m. There is variability both year-to-year and over longer time scales, with global ocean heat content observations showing high rates of warming for 1991–2003, but some cooling from 2003 to 2007.",
"Global mean surface temperatures 1856-2004. Global warming is a slow steady rise in Earth 's surface temperature. Temperatures today are 0.74 ° C (1.33 ° F) higher than 150 years ago. Many scientists say that in the next 100–200 years, temperatures might be up to 6 degrees Celsius higher than they were before the effects of global warming were discovered",
"One of the most immediate and obvious effects of global warming is the increase in temperatures around the world. The average global temperature has increased by about 1.4 degrees Fahrenheit (0.8 degrees Celsius) over the past 100 years, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). ",
"The World Meteorological Organization defines this time period as 30 years.

"Global warming and climate change are terms for the observed century-scale rise in the average temperature of the Earth's climate system and its related effects. Multiple lines of scientific evidence show that the climate system is warming. Future climate change and associated impacts will differ from region to region around the globe. Anticipated effects include warming global temperature, rising sea levels, changing precipitation, and expansion of deserts in the subtropics.",
"The IPCC predicts that increases in global mean temperature of less than 1.8 to 5.4 degrees Fahrenheit (1 to 3 degrees Celsius) above 1990 levels will produce beneficial impacts in some regions and harmful ones in others. Net annual costs will increase over time as global temperatures increase. ",
"Economic impacts are expected to vary regionally. For a medium increase in global mean temperature (2-3 °C of warming, relative to the average temperature between 1990–2000), market sectors in low-latitude and less-developed areas might experience net costs due to climate change.

"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Mastoiditis is the result of an infection that extends to the air cells of the skull behind the ear. Specifically, it is an inflammation of the mucosal lining of the mastoid antrum and mastoid air cell system inside the mastoid process. The mastoid process is the portion of the temporal bone of the skull that is behind the ear which contains open, air-containing spaces. Some common symptoms and signs of mastoiditis include pain, tenderness, and swelling in the mastoid region. There may be ear pain (otalgia), and the ear or mastoid region may be red (erythematous).",
"Coalescent mastoiditis occurs when inflammation and other symptoms of the disease persists over 2-4 weeks. This infection may obliterate mastoid sinuses and destroy lining around the bone. Cholesteatoma, a skin cyst in the middle ear, can also disrupt the ear drainage system, causing mastoiditis. However, incidences of mastoiditis in adults are very less in number. Common Symptoms. 1 Discomfort or pain in the ear may occur. 2 Discharge from the ear is common. 3 The source of discharge may be located in the perforated eardrum. 4 Entire ear or back of the ear may become red. 5 Swelling may occur behind the ear. 6 A tender and painful abscess may occur due to mastoid bone’s damaged cortex",
"Mastoiditis is an inflammation or infection of the sinus behind the middle ear (Mastoid sinus). This can be often seen on imaging studies such as MRI (see below). ",
"Mastoiditis is a bacterial infection of the mastoid bone. The mastoid bone, which sits behind the ear, consists of air spaces that help drain the middle ear. When the mastoid cells become infected or inflamed, often as a result of an unresolved middle ear infection (otitis media), mastoiditis can develop. Mastoiditis symptoms may include: 1 Fever, irritability, and lethargy. 2 Swelling of the ear lobe. 3 Redness and tenderness behind the ear. 4 Drainage from the ear. 5 Bulging and drooping of the ear (in acute mastoiditis).",
"Common Symptoms. 1 Discomfort or pain in the ear may occur. 2 Discharge from the ear is common. 3 Entire ear or back of the ear may become red. 4 Swelling may occur behind the ear. 5 Patients may suffer from high fever, which may increase suddenly. 6 Mastoiditis affects ability to hear. 7 Headache and irritability are two other common symptoms of the disease. However, incidences of mastoiditis in adults are very less in number. Common Symptoms. 1 Discomfort or pain in the ear may occur. 2 Discharge from the ear is common. 3 The source of discharge may be located in the perforated eardrum. 4 Entire ear or back of the ear may become red. 5 Swelling may occur behind the ear. 6 A tender and painful abscess may occur due to mastoid bone’s damaged cortex",
"Back to Top Causes. Mastoiditis is usually caused by a middle ear infection (acute otitis media). The infection may spread from the ear to the mastoid bone of the skull. The mastoid bone fills with infected materials and its honeycomb-like structure may deteriorate. Mastoiditis usually affects children. Before antibiotics, mastoiditis was one of the leading causes of death in children"

"Report Abuse. Rayon is a great fabric for clothing...not upholstery. IT is a natural fiber from the Kapok tree, feels very much like silk, and takes dyes very well...but it wrinkles, does NOT like abrasion..I would not use them for what you want to do. Most of the fabrics I like have a lot of Rayon in them. My mother says she doesn't think Rayon wears well. I really love these fabrics but, I don't want something that won't wear well. I have 2 children.",
"1 Hand wash or dry clean. 2 Seersucker does not refer to the fabric, but to a certain structure of fabric. 3 It is usually made of cotton, but can be made from rayon or other synthetics. 4 It has a puckered style so that it lifts off your skin and lets air circulate. 1 Some rayon is washable and some must be dry cleaned. 2 Most of the washable rayon garments today are labeled hand wash, cool water, drip dry or dry flat. 3 This is important to follow because when rayon is wet, it loses 30% to 50% of its strength. 4 Hand washing is best for washable rayon garments.",
"The answer is yes, but... Rayon is not as sturdy a fabric as cotton and will not stand up to the same level of abuse that we put cotton T-shirts and jeans through. If you put a rayon dress through a washer/dryer in a load with say, jeans, then in the tumbling, the jeans will rub and pull on the dress's seams. Always (ALWAYS!) read the garment's care label. If you wash a rayon garment that isn't washable it will shrink, stretch, and possibly bleed dyes all over. You may not be able to wear it again so be sure to double-check the label's instructions. 2. Washing all rayon by hand is, of course, preferable.",
"There´s also something important to remember when caring for the washable rayons. Most of the washable rayon garments today are labeled hand wash, cool water, drip dry or dry flat.. And, it's important that these directions are followed, because when rayon is wet, it actually loses 30% to 50% of its strength. So, hand washing, like the label says, is the best. The constant agitation of the washer, and tumbling of the dryer will beat the garment against the side of the washer and dryer. Anytime a rayon garment, labeled dry clean only, is washed, a risk is taken, and one of three things may happen. First the garment can shrink tremendously, sometimes as much as two or three sizes. Second, the garment may fade, or a printed pattern may bleed. And third, the fabric may lose its soft hand.",
"Fiber Characteristics-Rayon. Manufactured Fiber-cellulosic-based from wood pulp.

Anytime a rayon garment, labeled dry clean only, is washed, a risk is taken, and one of three things may happen. First the garment can shrink tremendously, sometimes as much as two or three sizes. Second, the garment may fade, or a printed pattern may bleed. And third, the fabric may lose its soft hand.",
"Sorting by weight before washing is very important. I always machine-wash my rayon clothing, in cold water, and tumble-dry it (at low temperature) as well, which minimizes wrinkles. This is a little risky, since some rayon is too weak to survive machine washing. I've had only one or two failures, in which the rayon showed damage. ",
"ok...well I have been a designer in the fashion industry for 15 years. rayon is a cellulosic fiber made from tree type pulp. it has high shrinkage when washed/handled incorrectly. some rayon is only dry clean, the general use rayon you see in most top and dresses is washable in cold water only and preferably by hand. do not use a dryer. air dry the gmt flat and if it is as sweater you can also reshape while wet. Rayon is NOT a synthetic like polyester. Some of it is not wahable at all...dry clean only. Refer to the label for proper care. Rayon velvet is not washable as a rule. Some of the synthetic silk type are washable with care.",
"How to Care for Rayon. Rayon fabrics are a human created (synthetic) fabric. Clothes made from rayon weaken when they're wet and have a tendency to shrink. They can also bleed colour easily and will wrinkle a great deal following washing. "

"One square of asphalt shingles usually costs between $50 and $150, as of June 2011. Metal roofing gives you more durability, but this shingle material costs more, ranging anywhere from $115 to $650 per square. Tiles offer a distinct look on the roof, but they also come with a high price tag. ",
"1 GAF 3-Tab shingles cost approximately $2 to $3 per square foot installed (or $2,000 to $6,000 for an average-sized 2,000 square foot roof). 2 GAF Timberline roofing shingles cost around $3 to $5 per square foot installed ($6,000 to $10,000). For the most accurate GAF roofing shingle prices, fill out this form to receive estimates from multiple, prescreened contractors in your area. 1 ",

Asphalt shingles cost slightly more than comparable fiberglass shingles, although the two products fall in the same general price range. In most cases, budget about $60-$120 per square for materials, $80-$200 per square for installation and $80-$150 per square for removal of the old shingles. 1 For a 1,500-square-foot roof, the total cost for materials and installation would be $2,100-$4,800",
"Cost of installing the roof including materials will be the biggest cost. For quality 30 year asphalt shingles, three tab style, figure on paying $35-$40 per square. For quality 30 year laminated tab asphalt shingles which are very popular, figure on paying $40-$45 per square. For 30 pound roofing felt and drip edge figure about $7 per square.",

"The Hopi Indians came to the west in about 500 A.D. Many historians say they were the first Native Americans to make the United States their home. They are descendents of the Pueblo Indians and make their home in Northeastern Arizona. They live on top of mesas where pueblos made of stone are built.",
"The Hopis live on a reservation, which is land that belongs to them and is under their control. The Hopi Nation has its own government, laws, police, and services, just like a small country. However, the Hopis are also US citizens and must obey American law. In the past, the Hopi Indians had a theocratic government.",
"Now the Hopi Reservation in Black Mesa, Arizona is surrounded by the Navajo reservation and is where the vast majority of the Hopi live today. However, a few Hopi live on the Colorado River Indian Reservation, on the Colorado River in western Arizona.",

The Hopi are a federally recognized tribe of indigenous Native American people, who primaril … y live on the 2,531.773 sq mi (6,557.262 km²) Hopi Reservation in northeastern Arizona.Their homes were traditionally the Pueblo style-built with adobe and boxlike in shape.",
"Thought to have migrated north out of Mexico around 500 B.C., the Hopi have always lived in the Four Corners area of the United States. In the beginning they were a hunting and gathering group divided into numerous small bands that lived in pit houses.",
"The Hopi tribe is comprised of agricultural people who have lived in the Southwest United States, mainly in Arizona, since approximately 500-700 CE. Hopi history is long and unique. Their society is matrilineal and broken up into complex individual clans.",
"The Hopi-Peaceful Ones of the Southwest. Primarily living on a 1.5 million acre reservation in northeastern Arizona, the Hopi (peaceful ones) people have the longest authenticated history of occupation of a single area by any Native American tribe in the United States.",
"For more than 2,000 years, the Hopi have lived in what is today known as the Four Corners region where Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, and Colorado meet."

"Click to read more below. Also known as the oral cavity, the mouth is the hollow cavity that allows food and air to enter the body. The mouth contains many other organs-such as the teeth, tongue, and the ducts of the salivary glands-that work together to aid in the ingestion and digestion of food. The mouth also plays a major role in the production of speech through the movements of the tongue, lips and cheeks."

"Costs Vary Widely. Nationally, estimates of room addition costs vary from $80 to $250 a square foot. A simple room addition with a basic foundation and no plumbing generally costs at least $100 a square foot with typical internal finishing, no expansion of a heating/cooling unit, and minimal structural changes.",
"The average national cost of adding a room or building an addition is $40,960, with most homeowners spending between $21,711 and $63,014. This data is based on actual project costs as reported by HomeAdvisor members."

Once it infects a susceptible cell, however, a virus can direct the cell machinery to produce more viruses. Most viruses have either RNA or DNA as their genetic material. The nucleic acid may be single-or double-stranded. What are central to the life cycle of a virus are the types of nucleic acids formed during its replication and the pathway by which mRNA is produced. The relation between the viral mRNA and the nucleic acid of the infectious particle is the basis of a simple means of classifying viruses.",
"Some scientists speculate that viruses started as rogue segments of genetic code that adapted to a parasitic existence. All viruses contain nucleic acid, either DNA or RNA (but not both), and a protein coat, which encases the nucleic acid. Some viruses are also enclosed by an envelope of fat and protein molecules. In its infective form, outside the cell, a virus particle is called a virion. Each virion contains at least one unique protein synthesized by specific genes in its nucleic acid.

"Yeast Allergy Vs. Yeast allergy and Yeast symptom are not the same. Yeast allergy is when your body is allergic to the yeast, and when it enters your body your mast cells release Histamine. The histamine is what causes the reactions (like swelling, upset stomach, etc.). Yeast Syndrome is when the yeast begins to grow in your gut. This syndrome is often called Candidiasis. ",

The cabbage actually comes ‘pre-loaded’ with the bacteria need to ferment itself. When you buy either sauerkraut or kimchi in the supermarket, make sure that you buy the ‘raw’ or ‘unpasteurized’ form. ",
"Since sauerkraut is a food, it is not meant to treat or cure any disease. As a result, no specific health claims are made for it. However, since it does contain several strains of lactic acid bacteria, I believe that it belongs in a healthy lifestyle. Fermented cabbage has less sugars and more beneficial microbes than the raw cabbage, while still maintaining most of the vitamin C and other nutrients in the raw cabbage. While the live cultures use up some of the cabbage's nutrients, the benefits they provide outweigh the losses.",
"Candida albicans is the most common type of fungus or yeast found in the human body. It normally exists on many surfaces of the body, including the skin and the gastrointestinal tract, coexisting with other microorganisms like bacteria and other types of fungi. ",
"In sauerkraut, the fermentation process has a very specific purpose: to quickly proliferate through the food by lactic acid-producing bacteria (LABs), primarily Lactobacilli. These Lactobacilli cause the pH to be reduced, making the environment acidic and unsuitable for the growth of unwanted bacteria. In the presence of oxygen yeasts can be oxidized to form vinegar-not something we want in our sauerkraut. Yeasts can also cause off-flavors and discoloration, visible signs you need a better seal on your sauerkraut. Pink sauerkraut (not from red cabbage) is a sign of yeast.",
"Sauerkraut is basically cabbage fermented in salt water. The right amount of salt in the water is important to allow the live cultures of lactic acid bacteria and friendly yeasts to thrive, yet keep the harmful bacteria from multiplying. This keeps the cabbage crunchy and unspoiled. Fermented cabbage has less sugars and more beneficial microbes than the raw cabbage, while still maintaining most of the vitamin C and other nutrients in the raw cabbage. While the live cultures use up some of the cabbage's nutrients, the benefits they provide outweigh the losses.",
"Temperature is also an important consideration. Cabbage ferments best at about 65-75 degrees F. Over 75 degrees, it may ferment too quickly and become soft. If you eat it the ferment too soon, the beneficial bacteria and yeasts haven’t had a chance to take over. Fermented cabbage has less sugars and more beneficial microbes than the raw cabbage, while still maintaining most of the vitamin C and other nutrients in the raw cabbage. While the live cultures use up some of the cabbage's nutrients, the benefits they provide outweigh the losses."

"The Process of Phagocytosis. Let's use the example of a white blood cell engulfing an invading bacterium to illustrate the process of phagocytosis. A cell that engages in phagocytosis is called a phagocyte. First, the white blood cell has to recognize the invader and realize that it needs to be destroyed. It recognizes signal molecules released by the bacterium and is drawn toward it. ",
"Neutrophils are normally found in the bloodstream and are the most abundant type of phagocyte, constituting 50% to 60% of the total circulating white blood cells. One litre of human blood contains about five billion neutrophils, which are about 10 micrometers in diameter and live for only about five days. This material is then displayed to other cells of the immune system. Some phagocytes then travel to the body's lymph nodes and display the material to white blood cells called lymphocytes. This process is important in building immunity, and many pathogens have evolved methods to evade attacks by phagocytes.",

There are different types of phagocytes e.g. Macrophages or Neutrophils",
"Phagocytosis is one such tactic wherein special types of cells called phagocytes ingest and kill invading organisms. Phagocytes also ingest dead cells and debris caused by tissue injury. Three types of white blood cells can act as phagocytes: neutrophils, eosinophils and monocytes. These white blood cells circulate in the bloodstream awaiting chemical signals of invasion and inflammation. Upon receiving these signals, the white blood cell phagocytes migrate to the site of infection. Neutrophils. Special stem cells in the bone marrow give rise to neutrophils, which are normally the most abundant white blood cells in the circulation. Neutrophils typically comprise 40 to 60 percent of the white blood cells in the circulation. The primary function of neutrophils is phagocytosis."

All of these components relay the impulses from the brain to the nerves and muscles that control movement. Damage to any of these parts of the brain may cause cerebral palsy. 1 Spastic – Spastic cerebral palsy is caused by damage to the motor cortex. 2 This causes exaggerated, jerky movements. 3 Athetoid/dyskinetic – Athetoid CP is caused by damage to the cerebellum and/or the basal ganglia",
"There are four types of brain damage that cause cerebral palsy. The brain damage that causes motor impairment in cerebral palsy results from one of four types of brain injury or brain malformation. Cerebral palsy is caused by brain injury or brain malformation that occurs before, during, or immediately after birth while the infant’s brain is under development.",
"The cause of cerebral palsy is a brain injury or brain malformation that occurs while the brain is developing — before, during, or after birth. As a result of the brain damage during brain development a child’s muscle control, muscle coordination, muscle tone, reflex, posture and balance can be affected. Cerebral palsy is caused by brain injury or brain malformation that occurs before, during, or immediately after birth while the infant’s brain is under development.",
"Cerebral palsy (CP) is a broad term used to describe a group of chronic palsies -- disorders that impair control of movement due to damage to the developing brain. CP usually develops by age 2 or 3 and is a nonprogressive brain disorder, meaning the brain damage does not continue to worsen throughout life. ",
"Almost half the children affected by cerebral palsy develop hypertonia (excessive muscle tension) or spasticity (excessive muscle tension with increased tendon reflexes). This is usually caused by damage to the white matter of the brain. Other affected children can have mixed cerebral palsy, experiencing multiple symptoms with a spastic component. Cerebral palsy can result in irreversible damage and dysfunction of the nervous system. Many cases of CP have unknown causes. The disorder occurs when there is abnormal development or damage to areas in the brain that control motor function. It occurs in approximately three out of every 1,000 live births. There are several types of injuries that can impair the nervous system, including: 1 Head injuries.",
"In the past, doctors believed that cerebral palsy was caused by brain damage sustained during birth – the direct result of being temporarily deprived of oxygen (asphyxiation). Asphyxiation can sometimes occur during a difficult or complicated birth. Cerebral palsy is caused by a problem in the parts of the brain responsible for controlling movement. It can occur if the brain is damaged in early life or develops abnormally, although the exact cause is not always obvious.",
"Every case of cerebral palsy is unique to the individual. This is due in part by the type of injury, extent of injury, and the timing of injury to the developing brain. The brain damage that causes cerebral palsy is a result of either: 1 Prenatal disturbance of brain cell migration – genetic and environmental factors disturb brain cell migration as cells move to their appropriate location during brain development. Cerebral palsy is caused by brain injury or brain malformation that occurs before, during, or immediately after birth while the infant’s brain is under",
"Cerebral palsy, also referred to as CP, is a term used to describe a group of chronic conditions affecting body movement and muscle coordination. It is caused by damage to one or more specific areas of the brain, usually occurring during fetal development; before, during, or shortly after birth; or during infancy. Instead, faulty development or damage to motor areas in the brain disrupt the brain's ability to adequately control movement and posture. Early signs of cerebral palsy usually appear before 18 months of age, and parents are often the first to suspect that their infant is not developing motor skills normally.",
