Cataract Surgery Recovery
Uncomplicated cataract surgery often takes no longer than about 10 minutes to perform. But immediately after the surgery, you will need to rest in a recovery area until you are less groggy from sedation or anesthesia. Typically this takes about 30 minutes to an hour.or a safe and speedy cataract surgery recovery, follow these tips: 1  Don't drive on the first day. 2  Don't do any heavy lifting or strenuous activity for a few weeks. 3  Immediately after the procedure, avoid bending over, to prevent putting extra pressure on your eye.

Overview
After cataract surgery, expect your vision to begin improving within a few days. Your vision may be blurry at first as your eye heals and adjusts. You'll usually see your eye doctor a day or two after your surgery, the following week, and then again after about a month to monitor healing.It's normal to feel itching and mild discomfort for a couple of days after surgery.Avoid rubbing or pushing on your eye.f you have cataracts in both eyes, your doctor usually schedules a second surgery a month or two later to remove the cataract in your other eye. This allows time for the first eye to heal before the second eye surgery takes place. 1  How you prepare. 2  Results.

Within a few days after your surgery, your vision will likely have improved to a point where you see better without glasses. If this is your first cataract surgery and you are nearsighted or farsighted, you probably will still need your glasses to sharpen the vision in your other eye.ou will most likely have three follow-up appointments after your cataract surgery. Your first follow-up appointment is the day after your surgery. We also recommend that you have a driver for this visit.


Serial-position effect
The term was coined by Hermann Ebbinghaus through studies he performed on himself, and refers to the finding that recall accuracy varies as a function of an item's position within a study list.he continuity effect or lag-recency effect predicts that having made a successful recall, the next recall is likely to be a neighboring item in serial position during the study period. The difference between the two items' serial position is referred to as serial position lag.

The learning curve
The first scientific study of the learning curve was performed by Hermann Ebbinghaus. Ebbinghaus learned nonsensical three letter words such as âWIDâ âKORâ âZIFâ etc. and recorded his progress.his is the phase, where you make the most progress. Once you reach a certain level of skill and knowledge you enter the phase of diminishing returns. The better you become at the task the less you still can make progress in the learning curve.

Once you reach a certain level of skill and knowledge you enter the phase of diminishing returns. The better you become at the task the less you still can make progress in the learning curve.


The History of Geocaching
The Origins of Geocaching. Geocaching, first coined by Matt Stum on the GPS Stash Hunt mailing list on May 30, 2000, was the joining of two familiar words. The prefix geo, for Earth, was used to describe the global nature of the activity, but also for its use in familiar topics in gps such as geography.he combination of Earth, hiding, and technology made geocaching an excellent term for the activity. However the GPS Stash Hunt was the original and most widely used term until Mike Teague passed the torch to Jeremy Irish in September 2000.

MSG is a food additive found in almost all commercially prepared and packaged food. It supercharges the taste of food, but not in the way you would think. MSG operates on the brain, fooling it into thinking food tastes really great.


The Dangers of Monosodium Glutamate
MSG comes in many processed foods and snacks. Similar to high fructose corn syrup and partially hydrogenated oils, consumers need to get in the habit of looking for monosodium glutamate. MSG does not occur naturally in whole foods, so you do not have to worry about it in apples or bananas.


Monosodium glutamate
For its use in food, see glutamic acid (flavor) . For glutamic acid in general, see glutamic acid. For other uses of MSG, see MSG (disambiguation) . Monosodium glutamate (MSG, also known as sodium glutamate) is the sodium salt of glutamic acid, one of the most abundant naturally occurring non-essential amino acids.


-
When to add MSG to a dish: Generally MSG is added to foods before or during cooking and not at the table. For steaks or other meats, sprinkle it on before cooking at the same time you season the meat with salt, pepper, etc. For casseroles, soup or vegetable dishes, you'd add MSG during the cooking process.

How Long Will Life Survive on Earth?
Life has existed on Earth for billions of years, appearing shortly after the planet had cooled and liquid water became available. From the first bacteria to the amazingly complex animals we see today, life has colonized every corner of our planet. As you know, our Sun has a limited lifespan. Over the next 5 billion years, it will burn the last of its hydrogen, bloat up as a red giant and consume Mercury and Venus. This would be totally disastrous for local flora and fauna, but all life on the surface of the Earth will already be long gone.


How long will Earth last?
As for life on Earth... there's much less time. The Sun will begin to boil our oceans away in about 1 billion years as it begins to burn hotter. This planet will be sterile and dead long before the Sun decides it's fate as a rock to be or not to be.

The difference between Chip Shots and Pitch Shots (Part 1)
In the following videos, Bann Lynch Golf coach Michelle Howard shows you the difference in technique between chip shots and pitch shots. She then goes on to demonstrate the different kinds of short game shots that can be hit using a 7 iron, a 9 iron and a Sand Wedge. Enjoy!:


What Is the Difference Between a Pitch and a Chip Shot?
Chipping Technique. Address the ball using a narrow stance with your knees slightly flexed, most of your weight over your front foot and your hands set ahead of the ball. Play the ball a bit back in your stance, closer to your back foot than your front.


What Is the Difference Between a Pitch and a Chip Shot?
A pitch shot is hit high into the air. A well-struck pitch shot will land within 20 feet of the pin and then stop or roll backwards, since the grooves on a wedge put backspin on the ball. Pitch shots can be executed anywhere from just off the green to a distance of 120 yards.


Chip Shots Differences Compared To Pitch Shots ? Senior Golf Tip
Differences In Technique. Playing a chip shot : 1. Set the club face square to the ball-to-target line. 2. Take a slightly narrower stance with the ball positioned just back of centre and set the feet slightly open to the target.


What Is the Difference Between a Pitch and a Chip Shot?
Clubs. Use a lofted club to hit a pitch shot. You may hit a longer pitch with a 9-iron, but youâll more frequently use one of your wedges, all of which contain more loft than a 9-iron. For longer pitches, use the appropriately named pitching wedge.


What Is the Difference Between a Pitch and a Chip Shot?
Long shots travel farther, but short shots -- including pitches and chips -- are equally important to your golf game. Pitches and chips are approach shots hit toward the green.


What Is the Difference Between a Pitch and a Chip Shot?
The pitch is a short, high shot thatâs typically employed from 100 yards or less from the green. Youâll play pitch shots when the ball is too far away to chip, when an obstruction in front of the green prevents you from chipping the ball, or when you need to hit a higher, softer shot to hold the green.


What Is the Difference Between a Pitch and a Chip Shot?
The chip shot, on the other hand, is a low, bouncing shot that is appropriate from 40 yards in. The chip shot is effective when there is no trouble on the way to the green, and the hole has an uphill profile that will help the ball come to a stop.


What Is the Difference Between a Pitch and a Chip Shot?
Significance. The pitch shot is often used as a second shot on a short par 4 or the third shot on a par 5. Often, there will be a bunker fronting the green on these holes, and a pitch shot will fly over the bunker, yet land softly on the green. A chip shot can be used in many situations.


Chip Shots Differences Compared To Pitch Shots ? Senior Golf Tip
Being aware of these differences and therefore choosing the correct club and shot selection will help to improve your short game further. The differences between a chip and pitch shot can be measured in two ways-the length of swing and the amount of spin imparted on the ball. A chip shot is generally a low running shot which lands on the green and releases towards the target.

To cope with these and other travails of flying with an infant, we've put together a set of strategies we use to ensure that the flight is not only as safe as we can make it for our child but also as pleasant as possible for everyone else on the aircraft.


The Best Time to Buy a Flight is 54 Days Outâ¦Or Is It?
As you move from the time a flight initially opens for sale, to the day the flight departs, we see a pattern of how fares change â typically starting off high, slowly coming down, and then a few weeks before flight time starting to climb, with a particularly sharp increase once youâre inside 14 days.


When to buy airline tickets â Based on 1.5 Billion Airfares
The general pattern is that from the time a flight opens for sale, fares will drop slowly but steadily until reaching a low point somewhere between 27 days and 114 days out. That three month window, which is essentially between one and four months in advance, is what we call the âprime booking windowâ.

Concern about halitosis is estimated to be the third most frequent reason for people to seek dental care, following tooth decay and gum disease; and about 20% of the general population are reported to suffer from it to some degree.


How to Get Rid of Bad Breath
Brush your teeth regularly. Two major sources of mouth odor are bacteria and decaying food particles. There are hundreds of nooks and crannies in the fertile landscape of your mouth where these offending bits of rot can get lodged.


Bad breath
The most common location for mouth-related halitosis is the tongue. Tongue bacteria produce malodorous compounds and fatty acids, and account for 80 to 90% of all cases of mouth-related bad breath.


-
A dry mouth is a stinky mouth. That's why your breath is worse in the morning; your mouth produces less saliva as you sleep. Saliva is the enemy of bad breath because not only does it physically wash bacteria and food particles away, but it also has antiseptic and enzymes that kill bacteria.


Oral hygiene
1 Chewing gum stimulates saliva production (in addition to covering up the odor with some kind of scent). 2  Mints do not encourage saliva production. 3  Drink water. 4  Swish the water between your teeth from side to side.


-
Of those who have genuine halitosis, often the odor is caused by bacteria present below the gumline and on the back of the tongue. The remaining 10% is accounted for by many different conditions, including disorders in the nasal cavity, sinuses, throat, lungs, esophagus, stomach or elsewhere.


-
They may also contain alcohol, which is a drying agent. Other solutions rely on odor eliminators, such as oxidizers, to eliminate existing bad breath on a short-term basis. A new approach for home treatment of bad breath is the use of oil-containing mouthwashes and two-phase (oil:water) mouthwashes.


Retainer problems? Bad breath cause of retainers?
Methods used against bad breath, such as mints, mouth sprays, mouthwash or gum, may only temporarily mask the odors created by the bacteria on the tongue, but cannot cure bad breath because they do not remove the source of the bad breath.

â¢ She must produce gametesand prepare to nurture a developing embryo each reproductive cycle. â¢ If pregnant she must build the structures to maintain the fetus for nine months. 3 Components Of The Female Reproductive System Essential organs = Ovaries â The ovaries have a dual function as in the male. The ovary produces:1. The sex cells or gametes = ova(secondary oocyte @ ovulation)2. Hormones = progesterone and estrogens (the female sex hormones).Note-ovarian cancer is the 6 th most common cancer in females and is quite deadly. -Itâs onset is without symptoms, or mild and easily overlooked.


Female Reproductive System
Female reproductive organs. The female reproductive system is more complex than that of the male. It produces ova (egg cells); nourishes, carries, and protects the developing embryo; and nurses the newborn after birth. The system structures are the ovary, uterine tubes, uterus, vagina, vulva, and mammary glands.


Female Reproductive System
Cervix: This part of your reproductive organs is situated between the vagina and uterus. It secretes mucus that can help or obstruct sperm from fertilizing an egg. The cervix is the opening that sperm must pass through in order to get to an egg.


Female Reproductive System
A Woman's Reproductive System. Your reproductive organs are comprised of a vagina, a cervix, a uterus, fallopian tubes and ovaries. All of these organs work together to help you menstruate, conceive and carry a baby to term. Vagina: This tube like structure connects your internal reproductive organs with your external genitalia.


The Lymphatic and Immune Systems
The male and female gonads (testes and ovaries) produce sex cells (ova and sperm) and the hormones necessary for the proper development, maintenance, and functioning of the organs of reproduction and other organs and tissues. The reproductive system comprises the reproductive organs. In the male, the organs include the testes, accessory ducts, accessory glands, and penis. In the female, the organs include the uterus, uterine tubes, ovaries, vagina, and vulva.


Female Reproductive System
It is in the fallopian tubes that fertilization of the egg will take place. Ovaries: Women usually have two ovaries, one on each side of the uterus. Ovaries are the storing house for your egg follicles; every month, one of these egg follicles will mature and release an egg into the fallopian tubes.


-
The urethra is the final section of the duct system. It passes from the urinary bladder and the ends of the ejaculatory ducts through the prostate gland and into the penis. The urethra receives secretions from the ejaculatory ducts, the prostate gland, and the bulbourethral glands (accessory glands).

Female Reproductive System
While most women know the basics, many don't realize that there is more to your reproductive system than just your period. Ovulation and the Menstrual Cycle. Every month, your body goes through normal and natural changes that assist your ovaries in releasing an egg, which may or may not get fertilized during the month.


-
â¢ In oogenesis, (usually) one egg(secondary oocyte) is ovulated per month and lives 24 hours unless fertilized. Therefore, females are fertile 24 hours per month. In spermatogenesis, fertile sperm are produced daily (continuously)- malesare fertile 365 days/yr. Sperm may live 3 days in female reproductive tract.

Bradypnea â What is it, Definition, Symptoms, Causes, Treatment
Generally, individuals that are infants or between the ages of one and three may suffer from this condition with breathing rates under twenty-five to thirty breaths per minute. Accordingly, individuals between the ages of four and fifty may show signs of this condition with breathing rates ranging under thirteen to twenty breaths per minute. What Is Bradypnea? Bradypnea is defined as a breathing rate that is too slow and below the normal number of breaths per minute when the body is not in a resting state. Normally, when the body is at rest or sleeping, an individualâs respiratory rate slows down. For a healthy individual normal respiratory rate is 12â20 breaths per minute.


What Is a Normal Respiratory Rate?
Normal Respiratory Rates in Children. 1  Preschooler (3-5 years): 22-34 breaths per minute. 2  School-age child (6-12 years): 18-30 breaths per minute. 3  Adolescent (13-17 years): 12-16 breaths per minute.

Chloramphenicol is a suitable alternative to aminoglycosides in the. treatment of bubonic or septicaemic plague and is the drug of choice for. treatment of patients with Y. pestis invasion of tissue spaces into which. other drugs pass poorly or not at all (such as plague meningitis, pleuritis, or endophthalmitis) (3,4,11,12).


Overview
Plague is a serious bacterial infection that's transmitted by fleas. Known as the Black Death during medieval times, today plague occurs in fewer than 5,000 people a year worldwide. It can be deadly if not treated promptly with antibiotics.


History of Plague
History of the Plague Cure. The fundamental but separate works by Yersin and Kitasato, in 1894, on the discovery of the etiologic (disease-causing) agent of plague in Hong Kong, opened the way for investigating the disease and how it is spread.


History of Plague
Yersin had recorded that rats were affected by plague not only during plague epidemics, but also often preceding such epidemics in humans. In fact, plague was designated, in local languages, as a disease of the rats.


CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Therapeutic effect may be expected with 30 mg/kg/day (up to a total. of 2 g/day) in divided doses given intramuscularly, to be continued for a. full course of 10 days of therapy or until 3 days after the temperature has. returned to normal.


Overview
The most common form of plague results in swollen and tender lymph nodes â called buboes â in the groin, armpits or neck. The rarest and deadliest form of plague affects the lungs, and it can be spread from person to person.


Overview
The organism that causes plague, Yersinia pestis, lives in small rodents found most commonly in rural and semirural areas of Africa, Asia and the United States. The organism is transmitted to humans who are bitten by fleas that have fed on infected rodents or by humans handling infected animals.


-
In children, the oral loading dose. is 75 mg/kg, followed by 150 mg/kg/day orally in six divided doses. The. combination drug trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole has been used both in. treatment and prevention of plague (6,14,15).

Batteries, Ground & Static Electricity
In a battery, current flows due to a potential difference or a difference in activation energy between materials (electrolytes and metals). In other words, there is no sink or source like with static electricity, only electrochemical reactions that can only take place if current has a path to travel.

A F*cking Short History of the F-Word
Fuck isn't an Anglo-Saxon word either. Some of today's swearwords did indeed originate in Old English, including shit, arse, turd, and the British bollocks. It first appears, though, only in the 16th century, in a manuscript of the Latin orator Cicero.


14 Expressions with Crazy Origins that You Would Never Have Guessed
Origin: Back when road transportation was not developed, ships would be the only transportation and means of trade. At times, the ships would get stuck during the winter because of ice formation. The receiving country would send small ships to âbreak the iceâ to clear a way for the trade ships.


History behind âAn apple a dayâ
âIt sounds as if it should be really old, but in fact the first recorded use is in the 1860s, when it is said to be an old saying from Pembrokeshire in Wales,â said Caroline Taggart, author of âAn Apple a Day: Old-Fashioned Proverbs and Why They Still Work.â.


10 Common Sayings With Historical Origins
The phrase âpaint the town redâ most likely owes its origin to one legendary night of drunkenness. In 1837, the Marquis of Waterfordâa known lush and mischief makerâled a group of friends on a night of drinking through the English town of Melton Mowbray.


Apple
The original phrase, Taggart said, was, ââEat an apple on going to bed, and youâll keep the doctor from earning his bread.â In the 19th century and early 20th, the phrase evolved to âan apple a day, no doctor to payâ and âan apple a days sends the doctor away,â while the phrasing now commonly used was first recorded in 1922.


14 Expressions with Crazy Origins that You Would Never Have Guessed
Origin: In the olden days, when doctors were short on anesthesia or time during a battle, they would ask the patient to bite down on a bullet to distract from the pain. The first recorded use of the phrase was in 1891 in The Light that Failed.


History behind âAn apple a dayâ
Although the term is fairly new, Taggart said, the concept is quite old. Ancient Romans and Anglo-Saxons, she said, knew about the healthful properties of apples. The fruit also pops up in traditional Ayurvedic medicine, dating back about 1,500 years in southern Asia. (Andrew Bannecker/For the Washington Post)

FACT SHEET: Improving Outcomes for Our Nationâs Foster Youth
FACT SHEET: Improving Outcomes for Our Nationâs Foster Youth. On any given day, there are over 400,000 children in our nationâs foster care system with over 100,000 waiting to be adopted. Every year, 23,000 of these youth will age out of the system, never having found their forever families. We have seen that youth who age out of foster care without a permanent placement often face challenges with completing their education, unemployment, financial security and the criminal justice system.

On November 2, 2011, the Field Center for Childrenâs Policy, Practice & Research at the University of Pennsylvania hosted a public hearing on aging out of the foster care system. In Pennsylvania alone, around 1,000 youths age out of the foster care system each year, according to findings presented at the hearing. Nationally, that number jumps to approximately 20,000 to 25,000 per year.

Critical F-value Calculator
Calculator: Critical F-value. Critical F-value Calculator. This calculator will tell you the critical value of the F-distribution, given the probability level, the numerator degrees of freedom, and the denominator degrees of freedom. Please enter the necessary parameter values, and then click 'Calculate'.


Statistics: Degrees of Freedom
Another example of a different way to count the degrees of freedom comes with an F test. In conducting an F test we have k samples each of size n. The degrees of freedom in the numerator is k - 1 and in the denominator is k(n - 1).


-
For this calculation, the numerator degrees of freedom v1 are 12 - 1 or 11; and the denominator degrees of freedom v2 are 7 - 1 or 6. When you are trying to find the cumulative probability associated with an f statistic, you need to know v1 and v2. This point is illustrated in the next example.


-
Therefore, when the women's data appear in the numerator, the numerator degrees of freedom v1 is equal to 6; and the denominator degrees of freedom v2 is equal to 11. And, based on the computations shown in the previous example, the f statistic is equal to 1.68.


F Distribution (1 of 3)
The F distribution is the distribution of the ratio of two estimates of variance. It is used to compute probability values in the analysis of variance. The F distribution has two parameters: degrees of freedom numerator (dfn) and degrees of freedom denominator (dfd). The dfn is the number of degrees of freedom that the estimate of variance used in the numerator is based on. The dfd is the number of degrees of freedom that the estimate used in the denominator is based on.


How to Find Degrees of Freedom in Statistics
The numerator and denominator each have degrees of freedom. . Let c be the number of groups and n is the total number of data values. The number of degrees of freedom for the numerator is one less than the number of groups, or c - 1. The number of degrees of freedom for the denominator is the total number of data values, minus the number of groups, or n - c.


Tolerances and allowances
Difference b/w Tolerance and Allowance Tolerance Allowance It is the permissible variation in dimension of a part(hole or shaft). It is the prescribed difference b/w the dimensions of two mating parts(hole and shaft). It is the difference b/w lower and higher limits of a dimension of a part.


-
A tolerance class is made up of two parts, a tolerance grade and a tolerance position. A number of tolerance grades have been established for the pitch and crest diameters (the crest diameter is the minor diameter in the case of a nut thread and the major diameter in the case of a bolt thread.


-
Usually nut threads have a tolerance applied to the basic profile so that it is theoretically possible for the nut thread profile to be equal to the theoretical profile. Bolt threads usually have a gap between the basic and actual thread profiles. This gap is called the allowance with inch-based threads and the fundamental deviation with metric threads. The tolerance is subsequently applied to the thread.


What is the difference between allowance, clearance & interference?
Allowance, in simple words, is nothing but the scope given for adjustment of dimensional errors of mating components. It is the planned deviation Between actual dimension and desired dimension. Clearance or interference are basically type of fits.


Chapter 13 Tolerancing
looses of the fit classes; shaft moves freely inside hole; positioning of the shaft not critical; always clearance between shaft and hole. Clearance location fits (LC) tighter than RC; shaft and hole may be same size (line-to-line fit); shaft does not move as freely inside hole; located more accurately than RC.


Tolerances and allowances
Specifications of Tolerances 2. 8. Allowances: ï Allowance is the difference between the dimensions of two mating part(hole and shaft) for any type of fit. ï It is intentional difference between the lower limit of the hole and higher limit of the shaft.


What is the difference between allowance, clearance & interference?
Answer Wiki. Tolerance is the limit of random (unintentional) deviation of a dimension from its nominal value. Allowance is the amount of designed (intentional) deviation between two mating dimensions in a fit, which, in combination with their respective tolerances, results into a maximum and minimum clearance or interference.


Tolerance and Dimensioning Terms
In a basic hole system, the design size of the hole is the basic size and the allowance is applied to the shaft. The basic hole system can be used to keep the costs of tooling down since standard tools such as a ream or broach can be used for machining. Notice that the lower limit of the hole is the basic size 1.5000.
