Pancreatitis
Pancreatitis is inflammation of the pancreas. The pancreas is a large organ behind the stomach that produces digestive enzymes. There are two main types, acute pancreatitis and chronic pancreatitis. Symptoms of pancreatitis include pain in the upper abdomen, nausea and vomiting.hronic pancreatitis may develop as a result of acute pancreatitis. It is most commonly due to many years of heavy alcohol use. Other causes include high levels of blood fats, high blood calcium, some medications, and certain genetic disorders such as cystic fibrosis among others.


Pancreatitis - Cause
Excessive alcohol use is the most common cause of ongoing pancreatitis (chronic pancreatitis). Other causes of chronic pancreatitis include cystic fibrosis or a blockage in the pancreas.ther causes of acute pancreatitis are: 1  Infections, including mumps. 2  Some medicines, including certain antibiotics, steroids, and blood pressure medicines. 3  Injury.

In rare cases, medicines may cause inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis). These include: 1  Some antibiotics (such as metronidazole, tetracycline, sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim, and nitrofurantoin).n rare cases, medicines may cause inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis). These include: 1  Some antibiotics (such as metronidazole, tetracycline, sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim, and nitrofurantoin).


Editorial: Drug-Induced Acute Pancreatitis: Uncommon or Commonplace?

Many drugs have been implicated as causing acute pancreatitis (AP), mainly based on the recurrence of pancreatitis following rechallenge with a drug that the patient had been taking at the time of an initial episode of AP.However, estimates of the relative frequency with which drugs cause AP vary widely.any drugs have been implicated as causing acute pancreatitis (AP), mainly based on the recurrence of pancreatitis following rechallenge with a drug that the patient had been taking at the time of an initial episode of AP.


Cytoskeleton â the movers and shapers in the cell
Components of the cytoskeleton also enable cilia, flagella and sperm to move, cell organelles to be moved and positioned, and muscles to function. During cell division these components also assist by pulling the daughter chromosomes to opposite âpolesâ in the dividing process.


Structural Biochemistry/Eukaryotes and Prokaryotes
The cytoskeleton contains microtubules, actin micofilaments, and intermediate filaments. These collectively play a role in giving shape to cells, allowing for cell movement, m â¦ ovement of organelles within the cell and endocytosis, and cell division.


Cytoskeleton â the movers and shapers in the cell
The cytoskeleton is a very important dynamic part of a cell, but it is not often shown in simplified drawings. All cells, except those of most bacteria, contain components of the cytoskeleton. They help the cell remain rigid but also help it move and change its shape when instructed to do so.


What does the cytoskeleton do?
It is a dynamic structure that maintains cell shape, and also has been known to protect the cell, enables cellular motion (using structures such as flagella, cilia and lamellipodia), and plays important roles in both intracellular transport (the movement of vesicles and organelles, for example) and cellular division.


What Does the Cytoplasm Consist Of?
The Cytoskeleton. The cytoskeleton is made up of protein threads. It is responsible for holding the cell in place, maintaining cellular shape and supporting the cell membrane. Plant and animal cells contain three basic types of protein thread. Actin filaments, or microfilaments, are the thinnest type, while intermediate filaments are thicker and stronger.


What does the cytoskeleton do?
Answer by Stillatruckin. Confidence votes 133. The cytoskeleton is a cellular scaffolding or skeleton contained within the cytoplasm. The cytoskeleton is present in all cells; it was once thought this structure was unique to eukaryotes, but recent research has identified the prokaryotic cytoskeleton.


Cytoskeleton â the movers and shapers in the cell
Quick look: The cytoskeleton is the overall name given to protein filaments and motor proteins (also called molecular motors) in the cell. These protein filaments form an enormous three dimensional (3D) meshwork. Filaments can be cross linked to other similar filaments, and to membranes, by means of accessory proteins.


What Does the Cytoplasm Consist Of?
Cytoplasm consists of the complete contents of a biological cell, excluding the nucleus, which contains the organismâs DNA.

Types, Procedure, Risks, Recovery & Cost of Endometrial Ablation
1 Cryoablation: Liquid nitrogen is passed through the probe into the uterus and the endometrium is frozen. As the ice thaws, the endometrial lining is spontaneously shed.  Radiofrequency ablation: There is a small triangular mesh electrode at the end of probe.


Types, Procedure, Risks, Recovery & Cost of Endometrial Ablation
There are several different types of endometrial ablation techniques. These are usually based on heating or cooling of the endometrial lining. Electric current and microwave energy may also be used to cauterize the uterine lining. Here are some of the techniques used for endometrial ablation.

1 Endometrial ablation is one type of treatment for abnormal uterine bleeding that is due to a benign (non-cancerous) condition. 2  Endometrial ablation must not be performed if pregnancy is desired in the future.  Laser beam, electricity, freezing, and heating are all successfully used methods for endometrial ablation.


Overview
The tools vary, depending on the method used to ablate the endometrium. They might include extreme cold, heated fluids, microwave energy or high-energy radiofrequencies. Some types of endometrial ablation can be done in your doctor's office. Others must be performed in an operating room. Factors such as the size and condition of your uterus will help determine which endometrial ablation method is most appropriate.

For example, a boat carrying capacity on Marsh Lake, a fishing lake, would have a lower carrying capacity than Lake Tippecanoe, primarily a boating lake. Boater surveys or questionnaires are tools that can shape these decisions. For example, lake managers


Carrying capacity
The carrying capacity of an environment may vary for different species and may change over time due to a variety of factors including: food availability, water supply, environmental conditions and living space.


-
Carrying capacity. The carrying capacity of a biological species in an environment is the maximum population size of the species that the environment can sustain indefinitely, given the food, habitat, water, and other necessities available in the environment.


Carrying capacity
In population biology, carrying capacity is defined as the environment's maximal load, which is different from the concept of population equilibrium. Its effect on population dynamics may be approximated in a logistic model, although this simplification ignores the possibility of overshoot which real systems may exhibit.

Types and Talents of Various Gaited Horses
Types and Talents of Various Gaited Horses. I frequently remind people that a horseâs saddle gait is more dependent upon conformation than upon registration. This is equally true of any kind of inherent trait or characteristic.


Ambling gait
The rack or racking is a gait that is also known as the singlefoot or single-foot. It is an even, lateral four-beat gait. Although many breeds of horses are capable of producing this gait, it is most commonly associated with the five-gaited American Saddlebred.


Types and Talents of Various Gaited Horses
Dozens of new gaited horse registries have sprung up over the past several years, some representing actual niche breeds (the Florida Cracker horse, McCurdy Plantation), while others are blanket registries started to bring certain types of gaited horses into a recognizable registry and gene pool.


Types and Talents of Various Gaited Horses
What may add to the confusion of someone seeking a gaited horse for a specific purpose is that those who own and love a particular breed tend to claimâand believeâthat their breed can be âall things to all people.â This is simply not true of any breed of horse, gaited or otherwise.

Part 1 Preparing to Ride. Choose what kind of horse you want to ride. Be aware that there are many types of gaited horses that vary considerably. Take a few lessons. Once you've decided what kind of gaited horse you'd like to ride, find someone that offers lessons with the specific kind of horse you've chosen. Taking lessons from an instructor can help you become more comfortable with your horse, safer on the trails, and a better rider in general.


Ambling gait
An ambling gait or amble is any of several four-beat intermediate horse gaits, all of which are faster than a walk but usually slower than a canter and always slower than a gallop. Horses that amble are sometimes referred to as gaited, particularly in the United States.


Ambling gait
The ability to perform an ambling gait is usually an inherited trait. In 2012, a DNA study found that horses from several gaited and harness racing breeds carried a mutation on the gene DMRT3, which controls the spinal neurological circuits related to limb movement and motion. In 2014, that mutation was found to originate in a single ancestor to all gaited horses.


-
Find a horse to practice riding. At the stables, look for a gaited horse that is gentle, already trained to carry a rider, and has been used for trails. Pick a horse that you connect with and you won't regret it. A happy horse won't try to throw its rider or impatiently mouth the bit at all times.


Types and Talents of Various Gaited Horses
They tend on the whole toward a natural racking gait, though many do a fine running walk. These horses are sturdy, sensible mounts, and there is such variety of colors and types that you could find a flashy colored, well-gaited horse for nearly any equestrian endeavor.


Ambling gait
A number of horse breeds have observed natural gaited tendencies, including the American Saddlebred, Boerperd, Icelandic horse, Missouri Fox Trotter, Paso Fino, Peruvian Paso, Racking horse, Rocky Mountain Horse, Spotted Saddle horse, and Tennessee Walking Horse.

If considering surgery, most surgeons will obtain electrodiagnostic testing to confirm the diagnosis of CTS. Electrodiagnostic testing, which includes electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies (NCS), are usually performed by a neurologist.


-
Laboratory tests specifically for CTS. In clinically obvious cases specific tests are not needed to make the diagnosis with reasonable certainty but a variety of methods may be used to help confirm the diagnosis when it is less certain and to a lesser extent to help exclude it when it is considered unlikely.


Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
The mean annual crude incidence of carpal. tunnel syndrome was found to be 329 cases. per 100,000 person-years, and the standard-. ized incidence 4was 276. Although the etiol-. ogy is often unknown, certain conditions. are commonly associated with carpal tun-. nel syndrome (Table 1).


-
On physical exam, Tinel's sign and Phalen's Maneuver are the two classic tests associated with the diagnosis of CTS.(see below) In addition, a physician may test your two-point descrimination (looking for sensory loss) and hand strength, especially muscles of the thumb, to look for signs of muscle atrophy (shrinkage).


Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Carpal tunnel syndrome is caused by irritation of the median nerve at the wrist. Any condition that exerts pressure on the median nerve can cause carpal tunnel syndrome. Symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome include numbness and tingling of the hand. Diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome is suspected based on symptoms, supported by physical examination signs, and confirmed by nerve conduction testing.


-
CTS is diagnosed by carefully examining all the aspects of a patient that may be contributing to their condition. This includes a past medical and surgical history (see: About Carpal Tunnel Syndrome), current complaints and symptoms, and noting any associated social or occupational activities.

What is Ventricular Tachycardia?
If you watch medical dramas, you may have heard TV doctors say someone is in âV-tach.â That is the simple and quick way of saying âventricular tachycardia.â. The word âventricularâ refers to your heartâs lower chambers. Tachycardia is the medical term for a fast heart rate. And thatâs what it is in a nutshell -- an abnormally rapid heartbeat.


What is Ventricular Tachycardia?
Most normal heart rates are in the range of 60 to 100 beats a minute. Ventricular tachycardia can result in rates as high as 170 beats a minute or even more. Your heartâs upper chambers donât have time to refill and then send that blood to the ventricles.


Ventricular Tachycardia â Monomorphic
Definition. 1  Ventricular Tachycardia (VT) is a broad complex tachycardia originating in the ventricles. 2  There are several different varieties of VT â the most being Monomorphic VT.


-
Clinical Significance. Ventricular tachycardia may impair cardiac output with consequent hypotension, collapse, and acute cardiac failure. This is due to extreme heart rates and lack of coordinated atrial contraction (loss of âatrial kickâ).

Ventricular Tachycardia
Definition of Ventricular Tachycardia. Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is a cardiac arrhythmia characterized by a pulse rate of more than 100 beats per minute, with at least three irregular heartbeats in a row. The electrical signals causing this rapid beating originate in the ventricules.


Practice Essentials
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) refers to any rhythm faster than 100 (or 120) beats/min arising distal to the bundle of His. The rhythm may arise from ventricular myocardium, the distal conduction system, or both.


Ectopic pregnancy
An ectopic pregnancy results when a fertilized egg implants outside the uterus. Unfortunately, there's no way to transplant an ectopic pregnancy into your uterus, so ending the pregnancy is the only option. About 2 percent of pregnancies are ectopic. Because ectopic pregnancy is potentially dangerous for you, it's important to recognize the early signs and get treatment as soon as possible. How does it happen? After conception, the fertilized egg travels down one of your fallopian tubes on its way to your uterus.


ectopic pregnancy
In an ectopic pregnancy, the fertilized egg implants in a location outside the uterus and attempts to develop at that site. The most common site of an ectopic pregnancy is the fallopian tube, but it can occur in the ovary, the abdomen, and the cervical wall. More than 95% of all ectopic pregnancies occur in the fallopian tube.


Ectopic pregnancy
Other risks factors for an ectopic pregnancy include: 1  Fertility issues. Infertility is often caused by damaged tubes. 2  Being age 35 or older. If you're 35 or older, you may have accumulated risk factors over time, such as pelvic infections or changes in how well your fallopian tubes work. 3  Smoking.


ectopic pregnancy
Ectopic pregnancy is also more likely when the ovaries are artificially stimulated with hormones to produce eggs for in vitro fertilization (a procedure in which eggs are taken from a woman's body, fertilized, and then placed in the uterus in an attempt to conceive a child). Use of an intrauterine device .


Ectopic pregnancy
Other risks factors for an ectopic pregnancy include: 1  Fertility issues. 2  Being age 35 or older. 3  Smoking. 4  Having a mother who took the drug DES during pregnancy. 5  Getting pregnant with an intrauterine device (IUD) in place. 6  Taking progestin-only hormonal contraceptives.


Overview
An ectopic pregnancy occurs when a fertilized egg implants somewhere other than the main cavity of the uterus. Pregnancy begins with a fertilized egg. Normally, the fertilized egg attaches itself to the lining of the uterus. An ectopic pregnancy most often occurs in one of the tubes that carry eggs from the ovaries to the uterus (fallopian tubes). This type of ectopic pregnancy is known as a tubal pregnancy. In some cases, however, an ectopic pregnancy occurs in the abdominal cavity, ovary or neck of the uterus (cervix). An ectopic pregnancy can't proceed normally.


Ectopic pregnancy
However, if your first ectopic pregnancy was the result of tube damage from an infection, tubal ligation reversal, or DES exposure, there's a greater chance that the other tube is damaged as well. This may reduce your chances of conceiving and increase your chances of another ectopic pregnancy.


Ectopic pregnancy
Other risks factors for an ectopic pregnancy include: 1  Fertility issues. Infertility is often caused by damaged tubes. If you get pregnant as a result of fertility drugs or in vitro fertilization (IVF), there's a slightly higher than average chance that the pregnancy will be ectopic. 2  Being age 35 or older.

Bicarbonate and CO2
Whang says, in a long promotional essay pushing a product, âConsuming sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) does not add bicarbonates to the blood because hydrochloric acid breaks up sodium bicarbonates into water, carbon dioxide and sodium salt in the stomach.


Electrolytes
Therefore, too much or too little sodium can cause cells to malfunction, and extremes in the blood sodium levels (too much or too little) can be fatal. 1  Increased sodium (hypernatremia) in the blood occurs whenever there is excess sodium in relation to water. There are numerous causes of hypernatremia; these may include kidney disease, too little water intake, and loss of water due to diarrhea and/or vomiting.


Bicarbonate buffer system
The bicarbonate buffer system is an acid-base homeostatic mechanism involving the balance of carbonic acid (H2CO3), bicarbonate ion (HCOâ. 3), and carbon dioxide (CO2) in order to maintain pH in the blood and duodenum, among other tissues, to support proper metabolic function. Catalyzed by carbonic anhydrase, carbon dioxide (CO2) reacts with water (H2O) to form carbonic acid (H2CO3), which in turn rapidly dissociates to form a bicarbonate ion (HCOâ.


Bicarbonate and CO2
Carbon dioxide is present in the blood in a number of forms such as bicarbonate, dissolved carbon dioxide and carbonic acid, of which 90% is bicarbonate or HCO3. Sodium bicarbonate turns to CO2 when it reaches the stomach causing an increase in stomach acid production as well as an increase in bicarbonates in the blood.


Acid base balance (summary)
Under normal circumstances there is much more bicarbonate present than carbonic acid (the ratio is approximately 20:1). As normal metabolism produces more acids than bases, this is consistent with the body's needs. The blood, with its high base concentration, is able to neutralize the metabolic acids produced.


-
2 H2O + CO2 H2CO3 + H2O H3O+ + HCO3-. It is the production of carbon dioxide from this reaction that couples the carbonic acid/bicarbonate buffer to the respiratory system. Continue and read about how the carbonic acid/bicarbonate buffer and the respiratory system work together to control blood pH.


Bicarbonate and CO2
What Whang failed to see is that the CO2 is going into the blood in the form of bicarbonate. Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) immediately reacts when it mixes with stomach acid. NaHCO(3) + HCl â> NaCl + H(2)0 + CO(2). That is sodium bicarbonate + stomach acid yields salt + water + carbon dioxide.


-
The body's chemical buffer system consists of three individual buffers: the carbonate/carbonic acid buffer, the phosphate buffer and the buffering of plasma proteins. While the third buffer is the most plentiful, the first is usually considered the most important since it is coupled to the respiratory system.


Side Effects and Risks of Finasteride
Side Effects and Risks of Finasteride. Finasteride (commonly known as Proscar or Propecia) is a popular 5a-reductase inhibitor manufactured by the Merck Corporation and used to treat male pattern baldness and benign prostatic hyperplasia.

While the medication is not a cure for hair loss, it is effective in stopping hair loss and regrowing hair on the top and front of the head. The medication comes in tablet form and is available in only one strength.


Does Finasteride Lead to Permanent Sexual Side Effects?
New reports based on patient questionnaires suggest finasteride (Propecia), used for male pattern baldness, leads to permanent â rather than temporaryâ sexual side effects. A closer examination reveals it is unclear, just yet, how common these long-term side effects are. Finasteride (Propecia) has been approved for men with pattern baldness since 1998 with a relatively low side effect profile. 1 Potential side effects include decreased libido and disturbed sexual function, but the majority of research shows that these sexual side effects are reversed when the drug is withdrawn. 2,3


Finasteride (Propecia)
The most common side effects of finasteride include: 1  Decreased libido, also known as decreased sex drive (see Propecia Sexual Side Effects) 2  Erectile dysfunction, also known as ED or impotence. 3  Decreased ejaculate amount.


Side Effects and Risks of Finasteride
Sexual dysfunction is also very common in both men and women after taking Finasteride as well. This is the most commonly reported side effects reported by men, and there are numerous men who have filed lawsuits as a result of the sexual side effects. Although women are not recommended to take Finasteride, some women who have taken Finasteride before menopause have become infertile as a result.


Does Finasteride Lead to Permanent Sexual Side Effects?
According to Dr. Edwin Epstein, chairman of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS) Task Force on the finasteride controversy, this is the most important fact to convey to patients: That it is not fully understood yet if finasteride leads to permanent sexual side effects.

Revolving Debt
Revolving debt is the kind of debt that credit cards offer and is usually an easy way to get credit. It can be a useful tool when used with discipline. Revolving debt consits of open-ended accounts, usually with variable interest rates, pre-determined credit limits and payments that are calculated as a percentage of the unpaid balance.


Line of Credit Vs. Revolving Credit

What You Should Know about Medicaid
A: Gifts made within the 60 months before applying for Medicaid may be penalized. The penalty period (during which you cannot get Medicaid) is based on the number of months you could have paid for nursing home care had you kept the money. The average cost of care in Ohio now is $6,327 per month. So, for every $6,327 you give away, you must wait one month before fully qualifying for Medicaid. Thus, a gift of $63,270 would disqualify you for 10 months ($63,270 divided by $6,327 = 10).


The state of Medicaid (in charts!)
Medicaid is a big cost for states, but it's also a huge source of federal funding. Medicaid is by far the federal government's biggest spend in grants to states. In 2012, federal spending on Medicaid and CHIP added up to $265 billion - about 45 percent of all federal grants to states.


The state of Medicaid (in charts!)
The state of Medicaid (in charts!) By Sarah Kliff By Sarah Kliff July 17, 2012 We've spent a lot of time lately looking how Medicaid affects state budgets--and how that factors into governors' decisions about whether to participate in the health law's Medicaid expansion.


Medicaid Financing: How Does it Work and What are the Implications?
Medicaid is a spending and revenue item in state budgets. Medicaidâs role in state budgets is unique. Due to the joint financing structure, states are guaranteed to receive at least $1 of federal funds for every $1 of state funds spent on the program.


Medicaid Financing: How Does it Work and What are the Implications?
The federal government guarantees matching funds to states for qualifying Medicaid expenditures; states are guaranteed at least $1 in federal funds for every $1 in state spending on the program. This open-ended financing structure allows federal funds to flow to states based on actual costs and needs as economic circumstances change.


The state of Medicaid (in charts!)
Medicaid costs usually grow faster than state tax revenue. Over the past decade, Medicaid costs have grown at an average rate of 7.2 percent annually. State tax revenues, meanwhile, have grown much slower, increasing by 3.9 percent each year. Looking even further back, Medicaid costs generally tend to grow faster than state tax revenues: This is another element of how Medicaid challenges budgets: Its costs are growing quickly.


What You Should Know about Medicaid
A: Medicaid is set up to help people pay bills, not to take their money. If you have ample resources, you pay the nursing home for your care. If, however, your resources drop below a certain level, you may qualify for Medicaid. Medicaid pays the bills when you cannot afford to pay for yourself. Q: Does Medicaid cover assisted living? A: Only in limited situations. Medicaid primarily pays for nursing home care and limited home care through the PASSPORT Waiver Program.


What You Should Know about Medicaid
Not all assisted living facilities accept the Medicaid Waiver Program, and those that do often limit the number of beds available. Q: How much money can I keep and still qualify for Medicaid? A: As a Medicaid recipient, you cannot keep more than $2,000 in cash. You also may keep certain âexemptâ assets, including personal property, burial plots and irrevocable (non-refundable) funeral plans. Q: Do I have to sell my house to get nursing home coverage from Medicaid?


Medicaid Financing: How Does it Work and What are the Implications?
States have flexibility in determining the sources of funding for the non-federal share of Medicaid spending â though federal law does require that at least 40 percent of the non-federal share comes from state funds. 12 The primary source of funding for the non-federal share comes from state general fund appropriations.


Medicaid Financing: How Does it Work and What are the Implications?
(Figure 3) This is likely tied to statesâ increased reliance on provider taxes and fees to finance the state share of Medicaid. Since state fiscal year (SFY) 2003, the number of states with at least one provider tax has increased from 21 to every state except Alaska in SFY 2014. 13

In math, slope is the ratio of the vertical and horizontal changes between two points on a surface or a line. The vertical change between two points is called the rise, and the horizontal change is called the run.The slope equals the rise divided by the run: .n math, slope is the ratio of the vertical and horizontal changes between two points on a surface or a line. The vertical change between two points is called the rise, and the horizontal change is called the run.

A vertical line has no slope. Or put another way, for a vertical line the slope is undefined. As you drag the points above, notice that the slope indicator goes away when the line is exactly vertical. The equation of a vertical line is. Notice that the equation is independent of y.he points A and B on the line are at (-15,3) and (-15,20). The first coordinate in each pair is the x-coordinate which are -15, and -15. Since they are equal, the line is vertical. Since the line crosses the x-axis at -15, the equation of the line is. which can be read as for all values of y, x is -15 .

Here's the kind of pay raise you can expect next year
The very best employees can expect an average raise of 4.6% next year versus just 2.6% for average players. And workers with below-average ratings? They'll see a pay bump of less than 1%. 3% raise -- which is on par with the average raise in 2015 -- won't let you loosen the purse strings too much. But it's still well ahead of inflation, which was just 0.1% in June, or 1.7% if you exclude food and gas prices.

The severance calculator provides the user with an estimate of an employee's severance benefits using the employee's salary, length of service, and other characteristics. It is based on current law and policies in effect. Of course, the user can get a rough estimate of severance benefits by using a rounded salary amount ($25,000, for example). 2  Severance Pay is calculated by rounding up the employee's years of completed, continuous service to the next higher year.


10 Things Employees Want Most
We've broken down the 10 things employees want that will help you keep them on board. 1. Employees want purpose. Don't assume that a hefty paycheck and regular bonuses are the most important things to your employees.They, like you, want to know that what they're doing on a daily basis has some purpose behind it.t should come as no surprise, though, that the most successful businesses are the ones that work the hardest to please their employees, and it's up to managers to make sure they're giving their staffs what they want to the best of their abilities.


Pay raises in 2014 expected to average 3%
Just 4% of companies surveyed said they plan no boost in employee pay. During the depths of the 2008 recession, up to 75% of companies said they were freezing wages, Sejen says. Executives are expected to receive pay increases of 3.1%, managers and salaried workers, 3%. Hourly wage earners will average a 2.9% gain.A 3% increase would outpace the 1.3% to 1.8% inflation forecast for next year on Wednesday by Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke.xecutives are expected to receive pay increases of 3.1%, managers and salaried workers, 3%.

Lesson 14: Accepting command line arguments in C using argc and argv
In C it is possible to accept command line arguments. Command-line arguments are given after the name of a program in command-line operating systems like DOS or Linux, and are passed in to the program from the operating system. To use command line arguments in your program, you must first understand the full declaration of the main function, which previously has accepted no arguments. In fact, main can actually accept two arguments: one argument is number of command line arguments, and the other argument is a full list of all of the command line arguments. The full declaration of main looks like this:

Lesson 14: Accepting command line arguments in C using argc and argv
It first checks to ensure the user added the second argument, theoretically a file name. The program then checks to see if the file is valid by trying to open it. This is a standard operation, and if it results in the file being opened, then the return value of fopen will be a valid FILE*; otherwise, it will be 0, the NULL pointer.

ARG files are export-only, that is, AutoCAD doesn't automatically update them to match any changes made. They are best used for an initial workstation set-up. Once you have a station set up the way it should be, export the ARG and move it to a read-only network location. For new users, point the desktop short-cut to the network ARG file using the /p switch. The ARG file is export-only, so changing the file contents won't propagate those changes to the workstations - you will need to handle that yourself.

If I go to the options menu/profiles tab and click add to list, create a new named profile, will that profile be all of my current settings including tool palettes?


Disorders of the Pleural Cavity
The presence of an excess fluid, air, or gas in the pleural cavity can interfere with our ability to breathe. 1  Among the conditions that adversely affect the pleural cavity: 2  Congestive heart failure (CHF) can cause pleural effusion due to the increased capillary pressure in the lungs.


-
A small amount of pleural fluid found in the thoracic cavity serves as a lubricant, reducing friction as the tissues rub against each other. Pleura are thin layers of smooth epithelium that make up the pleural tissue that lines the inner surface of the walls of the chest. The two layers of the pleura are in c â¦ ontact and slide over one another as the lungs expand and contract.


What Is the Main Function of the Pleural Membranes?
The two pleural membranes surround the lungs, which rest on the diaphragm. Each is a double membrane. The outer surface of the pleural membrane is called the visceral pleura, and the membrane that lines the body wall is called the parietal pleura. In between the two layers of the pleural membranes there is pleural liquid.


Pleural cavity
The following list contains sub-parts of the organ: Pleural cavity: 1  Lungs. 2  Pleura. 3  Pleural space. 4  Pleural fluid.


Parietal pleura
The costal segment of the parietal pleura acts as a lining for the inner slope of the ribs and intercostal muscles located within them. It is the endothoracic fascia that separates it from these structures.


Pleural Cavity
Pleural Cavity. 1  This is an article covering the boundaries, pleural reflections and recesses and pathology related to the pleural cavity. 2  This is an article covering the anatomical spaces of the pelvic cavity - rectouterine pouch, vesicouterine pouch and more.


Social Security
Anticancer therapy means surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, hormones, immunotherapy, or bone marrow or stem cell transplantation. When we refer to surgery as an anticancer treatment, we mean surgical excisions for treatment, not for diagnostic purposes.


The Pleurae
Visceral Pleura. The visceral pleura covers the outer surface of the lungs, and extends into the interlobar fissures. It is continuous with the parietal pleura at the hilum of each lung (this is where structures enter and leave the lung). Pleural Cavity. The pleural cavity is a potential space between the parietal and visceral pleura. It contains a small volume of serous fluid, which has two major functions. It lubricates the surfaces of the pleurae, allowing them to slide over each other.


Parietal pleura
Parietal pleura Definition. It is the outermost of the pleural membranes, which are two in number, and forms a lining for the chest cavity that contains the lungs. In Latin, this organ is known as âPleura Parietalisâ.


Electrical Conductors
Sodium is available on the Moon. It is also available on the earth in massive quantities in the form of inexpensive ordinary salt. Sodium would appear to be a metal to consider for lunar electrical wire. The above pending patent makes claims for terrestrial use of composite conducting wire containing sodium.


-
Super conductive materials (niobium alloys for example) in a superconductive stage. Precious metals like platinum and gold. Copper and aluminum.


-
, Undergraduate in Electrical Engineering. Metals in a general manner are good conductors, since electrons are free to move. Other materials; usually, to conduct electricity, a high voltage must be applied to induce the eletrons' movements, since electrons are in a strong electric bound with the protons.


What Is the Most Conductive Element?
Conductivity refers to the ability of a material to transmit energy. There are different types of conductivity, including electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, and acoustical conductivity. The most electrically conductive element is silver, followed by copper and gold.


What Materials Conduct Electricity?
Quick Answer. The most common materials that are good conductors of electricity are metals, but other materials, such as carbon, can also conduct electricity in certain forms. When carbon atoms are arranged in a certain structure like graphene, they can conduct electricity well, but are poor conductors in materials like diamond. Continue Reading.


What Is the Most Conductive Element?
As to why silver is the best conductor, the answer is that its electrons are freer to move than those of the other elements. This has to do with its valence and crystal structure. Most metals conduct electricity. Other elements with high electrical conductivity, are aluminum, zinc, nickel, iron and platinum. Brass and bronze are electrically conductive alloys, rather than elements.


Electrical resistivity and conductivity
A piece of resistive material with electrical contacts on both ends. Many resistors and conductors have a uniform cross section with a uniform flow of electric current, and are made of one material. (See the adjacent diagram.) In this case, the electrical resistivity Ï (Greek: rho) is defined as:


Electrical Conductors
Silver is not known to be available on the Moon. If silver is absolutely required for some application, it might need to be imported, but for electrical conduction, aluminum and sodium can substitute. On the other hand, silver is not known to be absent from the moon.

Best Times to Visit Hawaii - The Big Island
Best Times to Visit Hawaii - The Big Island. The best time to visit Hawaii's Big Island is between September and November. That's when the island's generally reasonable room rates take the most significant plunge. Temperatures remain constant throughout the year â generally in the high 70s or low 80s â so you might want to avoid the priciest season, from December to March, unless you like to surf.


The worst months to visit Hawaii?
Best Answer: Hawaii has a wet season and a dry season. Some areas get such things stronger than others. As far as best times to visit, it depends on what you want ...


When to Visit the Gathering Place
Even in the winter months, from mid-November through March, the high-temperature averages somewhere around 80Â°F. In the summer months, the high typically averages somewhere in the mid- to upper- 80s. As with all the islands, Oahu does see a bit more rain during the winter months, especially on the leeward (east) side.
