The river channel has also deepened. 1  As the river erodes laterally, to the right side then the left side, it forms large bends, and then horseshoe-like loops called meanders.  The formation of meanders is due to both deposition and erosion and meanders gradually migrate downstream.

A meander is formed when the moving water in a river erodes the outer banks and widens its valleyâ¦. A meander is a bend in the river, it is usually in the lower and middle course of the river where the water slides from one side of the river to the next, this erodes one side of the river bed and deposites sediment on the other to make a bend.

Apr 19, 2015. A cutbank is a feature of a meandering stream. When a stream channel meanders, the stream channel becomes assymetric. The highest velocity flow within the channel is located near the outer portion of the meander loop. Thus this is where erosion occurs, This steep erosional bank is called the cut bank. Conversely, deposition occurs on the inside of the meander loop and is called a point bar.


Meandering rivers
The water flows faster in these deeper sections and erodes material from the river bank. The water flows more slowly in the shallow areas near the inside of each bend. The slower water can't carry as much sediment and deposits its load on a series of point bars. Click to view larger and see the legend.

1 The formation of meanders is due to both deposition and erosion and meanders gradually migrate downstream.  The force of the water erodes and undercuts the river bank on the outside of the bend where water flow has most energy due to decreased friction.


Meander
A meander, in general, is a bend in a sinuous watercourse or river. A meander forms when moving water in a stream erodes the outer banks and widens its valley, and the inner part of the river has less energy and deposits silt. A stream of any volume may assume a meandering course, alternately eroding sediments from the outside of a bend and depositing them on the inside. The result is a snaking pattern as the stream meanders back and forth across its down-valley axis. When a meander gets cut off from the main stream, an oxbow lake forms. Over time meanders migrate downstream, sometimes in such a short time as to create civil engineering problems for local municipalities attempting to maintain stable roads and bridges.


Meandering rivers
These are called meandering rivers. Meandering rivers erode sediment from the outer curve of each meander bend and deposit it on an inner curve further down stream. This causes individual meanders to grow larger and larger over time. Meandering river channels are asymmetrical. The deepest part of the channel is on the outside of each bend.

The process of making an RNA strand from a DNA copy is called transcription. A difference between RNA and DNA is that RNA uses Uracil instead of Thymine.


What are the three major types of RNA produced by the process of transcription?
First, enzymes attach to a cap of chemically modified guanine nucleotides to the starting end of the mRNA molecule. Then, other enzymes replace part of the opposite end with a â¦ tail of 100-200 adenine nucleotides. This addition is called a poly-A-tail.


-
This is the process where the 3' end of the mRNA is attached with multiple adenine nucleotides. On the 5' end of the mRNA, a 5' cap is attached. This is the complete and functional mRNA. At this point, the mRNA exits the nucleus to join with the ribosome, ending the transcription and starting the process of translation.


-
The transcription of mRNA begins in the nucleus. The DNA is uncoiled and the nucleic acids with nitrogen bases adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine combine to form an incom â¦ plete mRNA. The current RNA contains exons (the coding region) and introns (non-informational regions).


-
The three types of RNA are:mRNA-single stranded, often  depicted like a piece of string   tRNA-in 2D representations, has a circular part at the  bottom and three se â¦ lf-hydbridizing arms; resembles a four-leaf  clover.

Wild turkeys have adapted to being a prey species in part by having a high reproductive potential. Hens have the capacity to lay large clutches of eggs. In an extensive Florida study, the average clutch size was found to be 10.3 eggs. If a nest is destroyed or disturbed, especially during the egg laying or early incubation period, the hen will often renest.


How many eggs can a turkey lay?
Confidence votes 236. Turkeys lay from early spring to early summer, a span of about 4 months. During that time the turkey will lay 12-18 eggs and then sit on them. If you collect their eggs they will continue to lay, eventually producing an average of 1 egg every 2 days for a possible total of 80-100 eggs.


-
Brood rearing begins with the hatching process, which also results in the poults being. âimprintedâ to the female, creating a strong social bond between the hen and poults. The hen and brood, normally leave the nest within 24 hours of hatching.


Wild Turkey Nesting, Egg Rotating, Egg Hatching, and Babies Leaving the Nest
This video was shot on my property. The incubation time for turkey eggs is 28 days. Watch how the hen rotates the eggs. This is done once a day and is real treat to see. Once the eggs hatch, the mother leaves the nest within 12 to 24 hours and the little chicks following behind. She does not feed them and they must learn to forage on their own right away.


Turkeys: Breeding, Hatching and Brooding
After the hen is mated, she will lay fertile eggs for a week to 10 days. The further out from the conception date, the lower the chance of fertility. If your Tom is mating with your hens regularly, then eggs can be collected with consistent fertility.

There are two types of vaccine that protect against polio: inactivated poliovirus vaccine (IPV) and oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV). IPV is given as an injection in the leg or arm, depending on the patient's age. Polio vaccine may be given at the same time as other vaccines.


-
Page 2 of 4 dose from age 4 to 6 years, they should be given a booster dose if it has been at least 6 months since the last dose. People age 10 years and older should receive a dose of Tdap if they havenât received it already. How long is a person with pertussis contagious?


-
Tetanus is acquired through exposure to the spores of the bacterium Clostridium tetani which are universally present in the soil. The disease is caused by the action of a potent neurotoxin produced during the growth of the bacteria in dead tissues, e.g. in dirty wounds or in the umbilicus following non-sterile delivery.


Age Groups and Vaccines: 4 to 6 years
Age Groups and Vaccines: 4 to 6 years. By this age, your child should have received several vaccines, but it probably still doesn't feel entirely comfortable watching him get more. Most likely your child has not had a negative consequence before, and that is likely to be the case again.


Everything you need to know about tetanus
Symptoms of tetanus. Tetanus symptoms usually emerge about 10 days after initial infection, however this can vary from 4 days to about 3 weeks, and in some cases may take months. In general, the further the injury site is from the central nervous system, the longer the incubation period.

A temporary table that is created when a multiple-column subquery is used in the FROM clause of an outer query is called a(n) ____. a. inner view c. inline view b. outer view d. natural view ____ 92.


Subquery
Single-Row Subquery. The operators that can be used with single-row subqueires are =, >, >=, <, <=, and <>. Group functions can be used in the subquery. For example, the following statement retrieve the details of the employee holding the highest salary.


Subqueries with Comparison Operators
Subqueries with Comparison Operators. Subqueries can be introduced with one of the comparison operators (=, < >, >, > =, <, ! >, ! <, or < =). A subquery introduced with an unmodified comparison operator (a comparison operator not followed by ANY or ALL) must return a single value rather than a list of values, like subqueries introduced with IN. If such a subquery returns more than one value, SQL Server displays an error message.


Subquery
Multiple-Row Subquery. Multiple-Column Subquery. Subqueries can be used to answer queries such as who has a salary more than Tom's. For such query, two queries have to be executed: the first query finds Tom's salary and the second finds those whose salary is greater than Tom's.


Subqueries to Solve Queries Questions
Answer: A. Single-row operators include =, >, <, >=, <=, and <>. Multi-row operators that can be used with multiple-row subqueries include IN, ALL, ANY, and EXISTS. Examine the exhibit and answer the questions 18 to 21 that follow.


Subqueries to Solve Queries Questions
Answer: B. Multiple-row subqueries return more than one row of results.Operators that can be used with multiple-row subqueries include IN, ALL, ANY, and EXISTS.The multi row operators IN, ANY, ALL must be used with single row operators as shown in the option B.


-
The ____ operator is used to determine whether a condition is present in a subquery. a. IN c. ANY b. ALL d. EXISTS ____ 90. The EXISTS operator must be listed ____. a. on the left side of the comparison operator b. on the right side of the comparison operator c. in the SELECT clause d. none of the above ____ 91.


Subqueries to Solve Queries Questions
Answer: B. Correlated subquery references a column in the outer query and executes the subquery once for every row in the outer query;and the EXISTS operator is used to test whether the relationship or link is present. An Uncorrelated subquery executes the subquery first and passes the value to the outer query.


Subqueries to Solve Queries Questions
The <ALL operator indicates that a value must be ____ value returned by the subquery. a. more than the highest c. more than the lowest b. less than the highest d. less than the lowest ____ 87.


-
Subqueries that can return only one or zero rows to the outer statement are called single-row subqueries. Single-row subqueries are subqueries used with a comparison operator in a WHERE, or HAVING clause. Subqueries that can return more than one row (but only one column) to the outer statement are called multiple-row subqueries. Multiple-row subqueries are subqueries used with an IN, ANY, or ALL clause.

The fetal pole grows at a rate of about 1 mm a day, starting at the 6th week of gestational age. Thus, a simple way to date an early pregnancy is to add the length of the fetus (in mm) to 6 weeks. Using this method, a fetal pole measuring 5 mm would have a gestational age of 6 weeks and 5 days.or example, a gestational sac measuring 11 mm would be approximately 5 weeks and 4 days gestational age. (4 weeks plus 11 days = 5 weeks and 4 days). Crown Rump Length: Gestational age = 6 weeks plus (CRL x days).

The fetal pole grows at a rate of about 1 mm a day, starting at the 6th week of gestational age. Thus, a simple way to date an early pregnancy is to add the length of the fetus (in mm) to 6 weeks.Using this method, a fetal pole measuring 5 mm would have a gestational age of 6 weeks and 5 days. Using a transvaginal approach the fetal heart beat can be seen flickering before the fetal pole is even identified.he fetal pole grows at a rate of about 1 mm a day, starting at the 6th week of gestational age. Thus, a simple way to date an early pregnancy is to add the length of the fetus (in mm) to 6 weeks.


Gestational Sac Measuring Small
They said I was around 7 weeks and 5 days. My hCG levels were up from 1,100 the Friday before. They did an ultrasound and there was a gestational sac, but they could not see a baby or heartbeat in the sac. It was measuring at 5 weeks and 4 days, but by my dates I should be 8 weeks pregnant.They drew my blood again after the ultrasound and the hCG went up to over 6,000.hile there is a cause for concern if a gestational sac measures small, if the pregnancy is still very early then you may have an issue with the actual age of the pregnancy. If the pregnancy is beyond 8 to 10 weeks then there are concerns that the pregnancy is not viable.


-
5 weeks is waaaay too early to rule out a viable pregnancy. at 5.5 weeks, i had my 1st u/s, and they told me the sac was empty and that i also had a blighted ovum. i was scheduled for a d&c a week later.during that week, my husband and i requested a 2nd u/s.n response to the post from anjbam-I had my first ultrasound at what we thought was 8 weeks but actually turned out to be 5 1/2 weeks (I have PCOS, so my cycle was way off).


Concerns Regarding Early Fetal Development
Generally from 6 Â½ -7 weeks is the time when a heartbeat can be detected and viability can be assessed. A normal heartbeat at 6-7 weeks would be 90-110 beats per minute. The presence of an embryonic heartbeat is an assuring sign of the health of the pregnancy.hey can range from 9-47ng/ml in the first trimester, with an average of 12-20ng/ml in the first 5-6 weeks of pregnancy. With both hCG levels and progesterone levels, it is not the single value that can predict a healthy pregnancy outcome.


How Many Weeks Pregnant Am I?
For example, a gestational sac measuring 11 mm would be approximately 5 weeks and 4 days gestational age. (4 weeks plus 11 days = 5 weeks and 4 days). Crown Rump Length: Gestational age = 6 weeks plus (CRL x days).This relies on the growth of the normal fetus of 1 mm per day after the 6th week of gestation.or example, a gestational sac measuring 11 mm would be approximately 5 weeks and 4 days gestational age. (4 weeks plus 11 days = 5 weeks and 4 days). Crown Rump Length: Gestational age = 6 weeks plus (CRL x days).


-
Sometimes if the pregnancy is very early, you will only see the gestational sac first. Or you could be experiencing what is called a blighted ovum, where a baby never develops. The only way to know for sure is to have blood work done.You should have your Beta HCG levels tested over 48 hours.ou may have ovulated late and baby is younger than you thought. With my YDS I had a dating US at 6 weeks and all they saw was the sac. AT 12 weeks he was there...beating heart little baby looking!


Concerns Regarding Early Fetal Development
Progesterone. Progesterone levels also can have quite a variance at this stage of pregnancy. They can range from 9-47ng/ml in the first trimester, with an average of 12-20ng/ml in the first 5-6 weeks of pregnancy.With both hCG levels and progesterone levels, it is not the single value that can predict a healthy pregnancy outcome.hey can range from 9-47ng/ml in the first trimester, with an average of 12-20ng/ml in the first 5-6 weeks of pregnancy.

OB-GYN 101
Ectopic pregnancies can also have a gestational sac identified with ultrasound, even though the pregnancy is not within the endometrial cavity. The gestational sac first appears at about 4 weeks gestational age, and grows at a rate of about 1 mm a day through the 9th week of pregnancy.or example, a gestational sac measuring 11 mm would be approximately 5 weeks and 4 days gestational age. (4 weeks plus 11 days = 5 weeks and 4 days). Crown Rump Length: Gestational age = 6 weeks plus (CRL x days).

Masters and Johnson. William Masters (1915-2001) and Virginia Johnson (born 1925) were two researchers who took a biological and feminist approach to their studies of the human sexual response, which they performed from 1957 until the early 1990s. Differing from Kinseyâs method of using personal interviews, they used the direct observation method.

Another issue of womenâs sexuality that Masters and Johnson examined was the inability of some women to achieve orgasm. Among the women that they studied, they found that 50 to 60% of women were not able to achieve orgasm during intercourse (Klein, 1992). They related this to anxiety, poor communication between partners, distrust, and low-self esteem.

Why are Parrots' Beaks Different Colors?
Based on Genetics. Parrot beak color is predominantly dependent upon a parrot's species. Many breeds of macaws have black beaks, including hyacinth, Hahn's and blue and gold macaws. Other species, such as greenwing and Catalina macaws, have light-colored beaks.ere's to Their Health. Like human fingernails, a parrot's beak is a good indicator of general health. If your parrot's beak is deeply imbued with its natural color and is not flaking or splitting, your feeding and care program is meeting his needs adequately.


Chimney swift
The chimney swift (Chaetura pelagica) is a bird belonging to the swift family Apodidae. A member of the genus Chaetura, it is closely related to both the Vaux's swift and the Chapman's swift; in the past, the three were sometimes considered to be conspecific.It has no subspecies. The chimney swift is a medium-sized, sooty gray bird with very long, slender wings and very short legs.Like all swifts, it is incapable of perching, and can only cling vertically to surfaces.The chimney swift feeds primarily on flying insects, but also on airborne spiders.he chimney swift's genus name, Chaetura, is a combination of two Greek words: chaite, which means bristle or spine, and oura which means tail. This is an apt description of the bird's tail, as the shafts of all ten tail feathers (rectrices) end in sharp, protruding points.

Birdâs beaks are very important. They help the bird gather food and sometimes they rip, tear, or crush food. They can act as an extra hand, such as when parrots use their beak for climbing. They are used for building nests, and in some species of birds they can even tie knots.hey are also important for preening, which is making sure all of the birdâs feathers are in their proper place. The top part of the beak is called the Upper Mandible, and the lower part is called the Lower Mandible.

About this book. The material in this book is based on invited and contributed paÂ pers presented at the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on INon-stoichioÂ l metric Compounds held in Ringberg Castle, Rottach-Egern (Bavarian Alps), Germany, July 3-9, 1988.


Stoichiometry: Chemical Formula Calculations
Chemical formulas are used to present the ratios of atoms of each element in a compound. This lecture takes the concept of ratios in chemical formulas further by relating them to what can be measured in the chemical laboratory (mass) and performing calculations based on them.


Stoichiometric Defects
Stoichiometric Defects. Defects in Stoichiometric Solids. It is generally known that all the compounds follow law of definite proportion. But there are certain solid compounds which, refuse to obey this universal law. Such solid compounds which actually do not possess the exact compositions according to the electronic considerations have been given the name Berthollide or non-stoichiometric compounds.

Plan to close Aynsley China factory in Longton
Aynsley China said the majority of its UK-made products were exported to Asia, Russia and North America. It said it had received no orders from Eastern Europe in the past six to eight months because of the conflict in Ukraine.

Family Background The Aynsley family have been producing fine bone china since 1775. John Aynsley (I) 1752 â 1829 the grandfather of John Aynsley (II) a descendant of the Aynsley family that occupied Littleharle Tower Northumberland.


Plan to close Aynsley China factory in Longton
Image caption Aynsley China has had a factory in Longton since 1775. A ceramics company is planning to close its factory in Stoke-on-Trent with the loss of about 40 jobs. The owners of Aynsley China said its orders had fallen and the cost of running its Sutherland Road factory in Longton were phenomenally high. The brand would continue to be made in factories in China, it said.


A New Chapter In The Story Of Henrietta Lacks
And I'm Renee Montagne. There's a new chapter in the story of Henrietta Lacks. Here's author Rebecca Skloot. REBECCA SKLOOT: Henrietta Lacks was a poor black tobacco farmer who grew up in southern Virginia and in 1951 she was diagnosed with cervical cancer. And she went to the doctor and, without telling her, her doctor just took a little piece of her tumor and put that in a dish.


A New Chapter In The Story Of Henrietta Lacks
Henrietta Lacks was an African American tobacco farmer and mother of five. She died in 1951, but her cells were kept and studied by scientists without the knowledge of her family. The cells have been genetically sequenced once again without consent.


Henrietta Lacks: the mother of modern medicine
The Lacks family were not, and are not, wealthy. Henrietta's husband Day (with whom she'd had her first baby aged 14) worked in a steel mill in Baltimore, making about 80 cents an hour. Life in their household was tough enough, with five children to feed, even before their mother got cancer.


Henrietta Lacks
Henrietta Lacks's headstone is shaped like a book and contains an epitaph written by her grandchildren that reads: Henrietta Lacks, August 1, 1920 â October 4, 1951. In loving memory of a phenomenal woman, wife and mother who touched the lives of many. Here lies Henrietta Lacks (HeLa). Her immortal cells will continue to help mankind forever.


Henrietta Lacks
On April 10, 1941, Day and Henrietta Lacks were married in Halifax County, Virginia. Later that year, their cousin, Fred Garrett, convinced the couple to leave the tobacco farm in Virginia and move to Maryland where Day Lacks could work at Bethlehem Steel in Sparrow's Point.


Henrietta Lacks: the mother of modern medicine
It was Lawrence's wife, Bobette, who was the first member of the Lacks family to hear about Henrietta's cells. By chance, she had met a cancer researcher â and when she told him her name, the researcher remarked that he was working in the lab on some cells that came from a woman named Henrietta Lacks.


Henrietta Lacks: the mother of modern medicine
Meanwhile in a cemetery in Virginia, where Henrietta Lacks was buried in an unmarked grave, a memorial has at last been erected. It is dedicated to the memory of a woman who, it says touched the lives of many; and no truer a sentence has ever been inscribed.


Henrietta Lacks: the mother of modern medicine
Henrietta Lacks, a 31-year-old mother of five, died of cervical cancer on 4 October 1951; and while her disease was a tragedy for her family, for the world of medical research â and beyond that, every one of us on the planet â it was something of a miracle.


Henrietta Lacks: the mother of modern medicine
Lacks's cells â known as HeLa, using the first two letters of each of her names â became the first immortal human cell line in history. Scientists at the hospital where she died, Johns Hopkins in Baltimore, had been working for years to try to start a continuously reproducing cell line â but the cells always died.

What is covered by Medicare?
When you visit a doctor outside a hospital, Medicare will reimburse 100% of the Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) fee for a general practitioner and 85% of the MBS fee for a specialist. If your doctor bills Medicare directly (bulk billing), you will not have to pay anything. Medicare provides benefits for:


What is Original Medicare (Parts A and B)?
Medicare Part B pays for physician services, outpatient hospital care, and home health care that Part A does not pay for. It also covers: 1  Diagnostic and laboratory tests, such as X-rays and blood work. 2  Medical equipment, such as wheelchairs and hospital beds.


What you need to know about Medicare coverage, eligibility, enrollment and costs
If you didnât enroll in Medicare Part B when you were first eligible, you may have to pay a late-enrollment penalty, unless youâre eligible for a Special Enrollment Period. For individual services and supplies, your Medicare Part B costs will vary.

The best way to store juice. The best way to store juice is in an air-free environment. Air is one of the primary factors that will cause degradation of the juice. After you juice and have your juice is in its catch container, you will need to pour it into your storage container.


-
So the best thing to do is to drink the juice immediately after you make it... Instead of thinking, ok, I will make a large batch once or twice a week, think, I can wake up 30 minutes earlier to make a fresh batch of juice for breakfast and the day..


-
You might need to store your juice in multiple containers and bring 3 containers with you to work for each juice break. The best container to store your juice is a glass container that holds as much as you can drink in a single serving.


Are You Making These Common Juicing Mistakes?
Hi, I have a couple of questions. First, if I juice spinach, Apple, carrots, lemon and celery and then i take that juice and blend a banana, spirulina and honey into it, am I ruining the nutrients that juicing provides. Because this is pretty much the only way I can get my kids to drink it. Second, I am confused about the whole oxalate problem.


Are You Making These Common Juicing Mistakes?
This is especially important if you make your juice without a juicer using a blender and strainer. For slow or twin-gear juicers, I recommend storing juice in an airtight container (filled to the top with no air gap) for up to 24-36 hours, and for a press juicer up to 72 hours.


-
Grape juice and apple juice are the only products approved for canning in half-gallon jars. Note: jars need to be sterilized anytime a product is processed for less than 10 minutes. To sterilize jars, cover jars with water and boil them for 10 minutes. If you live at an altitude above 1000 feet, boil the jars an additional minute for each 1000 feet of additional altitude. Sweeten the juice to taste before the final heating.


-
An average of 24Â½ pounds is needed per canner load of 7 quarts; an average of 16 pounds is needed per canner load of 9 pints. A lug weighs 26 pounds and yields 7 to 9 quarts of juice--an average of 3Â½ pounds per quart.


-
In this day and age, many people simply do not have the time to make fresh juice everyday, so people want to make a huge batch of juice at one time, and save it for use at a later time. The answer is yes, you can store juices to drink later.


Are You Making These Common Juicing Mistakes?
When I see families, especially children, drinking green juice, my heart melts on the floor, but when I see people drinking juice in a less than stellar way and making common mistakes, I get crazy concerned and want to help.


Hemorheology
Because of that, blood behaves as a non-Newtonian fluid. As such, the viscosity of blood varies with shear rate. Blood becomes less viscous at high shear rates like those experienced in peak-systole. Contrarily, during end-diastole, blood moves more slowly and becomes thicker and stickier.


-
Fluids with a straightrelationship between shear stress and shear rate are called Newtonian fluids, i.e.,viscosity does not depend on shear stress or shear rate. Viscosity is sometimes calleddynamic viscosity in contract to the kinematic viscosity, which is defined asviscositydivided by density h/r.


-
The relation between hematocritand viscosity is complex and many formulasexist. One of the simplest is the one byEinstein:h = h plasma (1 + 2.5 Ht)The viscosity of plasma is about 0.015 Poise (1.5 cP) and the viscosity of whole bloodat a physiological hematocrit of 45 is about 3.2 centipoise (cP) , or 3.2 10 -3 Pa.s.


-
The shear rate is the difference in velocity betweenthe different layers and can here be calculated as the velocity of the top plate(the bottom plate does not move) and the distance between the plates, i.e.,shear rate is g = v/h. The ratio of shear stress and shear rate is the viscosity.


-
How to measure viscosity Blood viscosity is measured using viscometers. Essentially they consist of two rotatingsurfaces, as a model of the two plates shown in the box figure. Blood is usuallyprevented from air contact and temperature is controlled.


Hemorheology
It can also be described as the thickness and stickiness of blood. This biophysical property makes it a critical determinant of friction against the vessel walls, the rate of venous return, the work required for the heart to pump blood, and how much oxygen is transported to tissues and organs.


Blood Viscosity
Red blood cell aggregation is affected by RBC deformability and by plasma viscosity, as already noted. Inflammation increases cytokines that affect the polarity of RBCs, making them stickier and more attracted to each other. Infection also increases the tendency to aggregation.


Hemorheology
This relationship becomes increasingly sensitive as hematocrit increases. When the hematocrit rises to 60 or 70%, which it often does in polycythemia, the blood viscosity can become as great as 10 times that of water, and its flow through blood vessels is greatly retarded because of increased resistance to flow. This will lead to decreased oxygen delivery.


Hemorheology
In pascal-seconds (PaÂ·s), the viscosity of blood at 37 Â°C is normally 3âÃâ10 â3 to 4âÃâ10 â3, respectively 3 - 4 centi poise (cP) in the centimetre gram second system of units.


You Can Make Your Own Zima, So We Did
The clear malt liquor hit the market in 1994 and took the drinking world by storm, selling 1.3 million barrels andâthanks to its ubiquitous, cheekily vague advertising (tagline: âZomething differentâ)âbecoming everyoneâs favorite alcoholic punch line. Sadly, that first year was the height of Zimaâs popularity. By 1996, sales had declined by two-thirds, and it had all-but-entirely disappeared from liquor stores by the time we hit legal drinking age. But that didnât stop the company from trying its hardest to keep the Zima flowing until 2008, when production finally ceased.

Zima Is Finally Making A Comeback
AdAge reports that the brand has already taken steps to get bottles back on store shelvesâat least for a limited timeâwith a MillerCoors spokesperson saying more news [is] coming soon but if you're one of the zillion fans who have missed Zima, the answer should be clear..


The Long, Slow, Torturous Death of Zima
But virtually overnight, Zima was done in by its medicinal taste and girly-man rep: After selling an astounding 1.3 million barrels in 1994, the year it went national, Zima's sales fell to just 403,000 barrels in 1996.


-
Think of it like the âWAZZZZZZZUPâ Budweiser commercials that debuted in 1999. MillerCoors is playing this release a little close to the chest. Last year, the company refiled the paperwork for the trademark of Zima. When asked for a statement, the response Beer Street Journal received is basically â âyouâll see.â. According to a few distributor friends, a SKU has appeared in their portfolio.


The Long, Slow, Torturous Death of Zima
The long, slow, torturous death of Zima. The long, slow, torturous death of Zima. The Long, Slow, Torturous Death of Zima. Fourteen years after its heyday, Zima is finally at peace. There are a million ways to slight a rival's manhood, but to suggest that he enjoys Zima is one of the worst.


Zima (drink)
Zima (drink) Zima Clearmalt was a clear, lightly carbonated alcoholic beverage, that was made and distributed by the Coors Brewing Company. Introduced in 1993, it was marketed as an alternative to beer, an example of what is now often referred to as a cooler, with 4.7%-5.4% alcohol by volume.

Zima Is Finally Making A Comeback
Zima Is Finally Making A Comeback. Get your '90s mixtape ready. We're not sure how or when it happened, but the '90s have became the quintessential decade for nostalgia. Some might argue this is due to millennials' penchant for childhood memories, but we'd argue that it's thanks to all the killer eats that came out during this time. No matter their age, people are so tied to foods of the past that they've created petitions to bring 'em back. Like Crystal Pepsi. And Etco Cooler.

1 (Again, this is just an example.) 2  Next, theyâd figure out that 20-30% of 2500 calories is between 500-750 calories. 3  Theyâd then divide 500 and 750 by 9 (because thereâs 9 calories per gram of fat) and get a range of 55-83.  So, in this example, this person would eat between 55-83 grams of fat per day.


How to eat carbs for more muscle and less fat
For example, if you are looking to cut some fat for the summer without losing muscle, you can intake 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight, 0.5 grams of fat per pound, and the balance will be carbs. For a 180lb man, that means 180 grams of protein and 90 grams of fat. Assuming a 2,000 calorie diet, that leaves 200 grams of carbs left over (1 gram of protein/carbs has 4 calories, and 1 gram of fat has 9 calories). The percentage breakdown in this example is roughly 35% protein, 45% carbs, and 20% fat.


-
The latest Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends keeping saturated fat to less than 10 percent of calories a day. For a 2,000-calorie-a-day diet, that's 200 calories or about 22 grams of saturated fat. Use the Nutrition Facts label to find out how much fat is in the foods you eat. The Nutrition Facts label shows the amount of total fat, saturated fat and trans fat in one serving.

If the inhaled corticosteroid does not control asthma symptoms well enough, other medicines, such as a long-lasting beta2-agonist or a leukotriene pathway modifier, may be used. Inhaled corticosteroids are the most powerful and most effective medicine for long-term control of asthma in most people. When taken consistently, they improve lung function, improve symptoms, and reduce asthma attacks and admissions to the hospital for asthma.


Corticosteroids
Â« Back to A to Z Listing. Corticosteroids are medications used to treat asthma and some allergic conditions such as skin allergy. These corticosteroids are not the same steroids used by athletes. Inhaled corticosteroids are medications used to treat asthma. They are taken by using an inhaler.


-
Thus, the effects of corticosteroids on inflammation and the immune system cannot be attributed to a single gene or pathway. The potent antiinflammatory and immunosuppressive qualities of the corticosteroids have made them important agents in the therapy of many diseases.


Asthma Treatment: Steroids and Other Anti-Inflammatory Drugs
The key treatments for asthma are steroids and other anti-inflammatory drugs. These asthma drugs both help to control asthma and prevent asthma attacks. Steroids and other anti-inflammatory drugs work by reducing inflammation, swelling, and mucus production in the airways of a person with asthma. As a result, the airways are less inflamed and less likely to react to asthma triggers , allowing people with symptoms of asthma to have better control over their condition.


Inhaled corticosteroids
Inhaled corticosteroids. What are Inhaled corticosteroids. Inhaled corticosteroids are medicines containing corticosteroids such as beclomethasone, budesonide, ciclesonide, flunisolide, fluticasone, or mometasone in a preparation designed to be inhaled through the mouth. Inhaled corticosteroids act directly in the lungs to inhibit the inflammatory process that causes asthma.


-
Side effects of inhaled corticosteroids are uncommon at the usual dose. Side effects (many of which occur only with high doses) may include: Sore mouth, sore throat, or hoarseness. Cough and spasms of the large airways (bronchi). Fungus infection in the mouth (thrush).


Asthma Treatment: Steroids and Other Anti-Inflammatory Drugs
Inhaled steroid medications for better asthma control include: 1  Beclomethasone dipropionate (Qvar) 2  Budesonide (Pulmicort) 3  Budesonide/Formoterol (Symbicort) - a combination drug that includes a steroid and a long-acting bronchodilator drug.

What You Want To Know About Watch Luminant
Have you ever thought about what causes your watch to glow in the dark? This subject has a very colorful and dubious history. It started early in the 20th century, around 1910, when some companies began to use radium on watch dials and hands to create a âglow in the dark effect. Radium is an almost pure white alkaline radioactive earth metal, and is found in nature in uranium ores. It was discovered by Marie and Pierre Curie in 1898.


How Does Glow-in-the-Dark Stuff Work?
Glow sticks work by chemiluminescence â that is, the light is emitted as a product of a chemical reaction. Items that need to glow continuously with little or no âcharge,â like clock or watch hands that glow for hours after a light has been turned off, work by radioluminescence.


What makes a Rolex Watch glow in the dark?
Below is an in-depth explanation on how a watch glows in the dark, the different types of luminescence that Rolex has created for its watches over the years, and what indicators on the dial reflect the corresponding materials. Luminescence itself does not glow but rather uses energy to produce light.


How Does Glow-in-the-Dark Stuff Work?
Your average glow-in-the-dark doodad gets its glow from a phosphor, a member of a group of substances that radiate visible light after being energized. Some phosphors are natural, like ones found in your teeth and fingernails, and chemists have also created hundreds of others.


How Does Glow-in-the-Dark Stuff Work?
The ones most useful for glow-in-the-dark items are those that can be energized by normal light and have a pretty long persistence (glow time). Take a phosphor that fits the bill, mix it in with the plastic to be molded into the product, and you have yourself a glow-in-the-dark whatever.


How does glow-in-the-dark stuff work?
To make a glow-in-the-dark toy, what you want is a phosphor that is energized by normal light and that has a very long persistence. Two phosphors that have these properties are Zinc Sulfide and Strontium Aluminate. Strontium Aluminate is newer -- it's what you see in the super glow-in-the-dark toys. It has a much longer persistence than Zinc Sulfide does. The phosphor is mixed into a plastic and molded to make most glow-in-the-dark stuff. Occasionally you will see something glowing but it does not need charging.


What makes a Rolex Watch glow in the dark?
Posted on May 29, 2013. We all love when our watches glow in the dark. Luminated hands allow the watch wearer to read time in a dark room or during the middle of the night. Luminescence is the material that is adhered to the hands, hour markers, and additional strategic positions on the dial that allow for greater visibility at night.


What You Want To Know About Watch Luminant
The watch companies added materials to the radium paint which caused the materials to glow, thus lighting up the numbers and hands in the dark. To the wearer, what a conversation piece their watch became: outside at night or in a darkened theater the wearer could still tell time.

Determine the image distance and image height for a 5.00-cm tall object placed 10.0 cm from a concave mirror having a focal length of 15.0 cm.


The Mirror Equation - Concave Mirrors
Use 1 / f = 1 / d o + 1 / d i where f =15 cm and d o = 45 cm. Then use h i / h o = - d i / d o where h o = 5 cm, d o = 45 cm, and d i = 30.0 cm. NOTE: this is Case 2. 3. Determine the image distance and image height for a 5.00-cm tall object placed 20.0 cm from a concave mirror having a focal length of 15.0 cm.


How do I measure focal length of a lens?
Put the lens parallel with a wall or white flat surface and focus distant light source (streetlam), horizon or lamp in your room on the wall until you get sharp image. The lamp must be near optical axis of the lens. a is distance to lamp, streetlamp, or horizon. a' is distance to wall. Calculate f from a and a'.

Gullfoss appears on the cover of the album Porcupine by the British band Echo and the Bunnymen. Additionally, the falls are referenced in the novella, The Odd Saga of the American and a Curious Icelandic Flock; during a dinner, Snorri expresses a preference for Gullfoss, while Dr. Gustafsson favors Glymur. Gullfoss features in the music video for the single  Heaven  by the band Live. During the video a young man and a young woman separated by the Hvita hvÃtÃ¡ river exchange written messages carried on rocks that they throw to each other over the river and the. falls


Gullfoss
Given that the falls are usually seen while doing the popular Golden Circle route, along which Ãingvellir and Geysir can also be easily visited, there is plenty to see on a leisurely day outing from the Reykjavik area.
