WBC (White Blood Cells) are present in our blood along with other components. WBC are important part of our immune system (they are soldiers of our body, where they fight with the virus which attacks our body). The prescribed range of WBC count for us is 5k to 11k. When there is infection in our body, this count goes up. High WBC means high infection in the body (the basic Funda is, WBC multiply themselves in order to meet with the virus count , and fight the virus/infection which attacks our body).

Content: Though the friction can appear during the clarification: I believe feminism is a women’s rights movement not an equality movement. I believe feminism wants women to be equal to men in every faucet of society (Equality of Outcome) regardless of whether they perform the same as men. It’s possible that you may not understand the conflict in the above statement. What is the importance of feminism being a women’s rights movement? Does that not mean the same thing as an equality movement? Well here’s the thing, the only way for Women’s Rights and Equality to be synonymous is if women were less than men when it came to rights. In the West, that’s simply not the case. In fact, not only do women have more legal rights than men due to their baby making capacity, the rights we share often do not come with the same responsibilities as men historically. The obvious and over cited example is of course the vote. | https://www.quora.com/What-does-being-a-feminist-mean |

The obvious and over cited example is of course the vote. The often forgotten aspect to the fight for the right to vote was that women opposed it. It wasn’t just evil men in office chairs stroking white cats asking how they could impose patriarchy today. No, it was women who were wary of it because of the responsibilities it entailed. IN 1895 the women of Massachusetts were asked by the state whether they wished the suffrage. Of the 575,000 voting women in the state, only 22,204 cared for it enough to deposit in a ballot box an affirmative answer to this question. | https://www.quora.com/What-does-being-a-feminist-mean |

It means ‘binding terms’ - WHEN SOMEONE DECIDES TO BREAK THE AGREEMENT. So, for example, you have read from your contract that you are entitled for 33 days holiday, 4 weeks sick pay, OTE of £80–£100k but..
They never told you (LIED) that you have to work for them for at least a year or two to be entitled for the extras above, as well as passing your 3-months probation period, several interviews and performance meetings. At the end you might end up quitting your job. In simple language I would define it as ‘confusing’. Alternatively visit this guide for more info (UK): Legally Binding Contracts

When people get sentenced to the death penalty, why does it take so many years (sometimes decades) before the penalty is carried out? Originally Answered: Why does it take so long to serve a death penalty after the person has been sentenced? Because the seriousness of that sentence requires that those who administer such a brutal punishment take the entire process leading up to conviction and sentencing into consideration with specific regard to whether or not any constitutional violations occurred that could have affected the outcome of those proceedings. It’s called the post trial appeal and because it was long ago decided that the 6th Amendment requires that the state provide a convicted person with an appellate attorney and with one appeal following conviction, they now do so automatically.

It’s called the post trial appeal and because it was long ago decided that the 6th Amendment requires that the state provide a convicted person with an appellate attorney and with one appeal following conviction, they now do so automatically. Following the trial and conviction your appellate attorney comes to see you; he should have already reviewed your transcripts and have some ideas about which issues could and should be raised in your appeal but the reality is that he or she probably just skimmed them in a very surface way the day before he visited you and doesn’t have any idea what issues will be raised. Anyway, he’s supposed to determine first if there were any errors in sentencing and, next, he should try to determine whether or not there were any constitutional violations in your case. | https://www.quora.com/What-does-gubernatorial-moratoria-mean-regarding-the-death-penalty |

Content: But I digress. The answer to your question is that it can take many years for a death penalty appeal to wend it’s way through the courts. Why anyone would have an issue about the length of time it takes to kill someone is beyond my understanding. Surely people haven’t become so arrogant and self-righteous that they feel some kind of way about the length of time it takes to kill someone who’s been sentenced to death? Is that your deal? You think it takes too long, huh? Bet you wouldn’t feel that way if that was a family member or a loved one up there. Hope this answers the question sufficiently. Related Answer

This can lead to more successful treatments than simply stopping the nausea.

To reconstruct human behavior in its previous natural and cultural environments, archaeology employs knowledge and techniques from many different academic disciplines and there are few sciences that have no relevance to archaeology. The concept of “holistic archaeology” specifically defines an inclusive approach, comprising all aspects of human societies, such as ecology, economics, social organization, dating, politics, art, folklore, mythology, religion, cosmology, and ideology. The study of each of these often uses multiple methods including those employed in physical and biological sciences, history, ethnography, geography, cartography, statistics, remote sensing, and social anthropology.

Reading through the previous answers I have to say that no matter how many times I’m confronted with the breathtaking level of ignorance still on display with regard to what is meant by the descriptors “left-” and “right-”wing, I’m still shocked by the damage that 40+ years of USG initiated and supported Cold War propaganda can do to political discourse of an entire nation’s population. Without a doubt, the most troubling of the (many) mistaken notions expressed by commenters is the idea that left-wing ideologies or politics is synonymous with authoritarianism or the desire for governments with dictatorial power. Nothing could be further from the truth considering what ‘left-wing’ can be most easily conflated with — equality! ( or egalitarianism). How such a grossly unfair comparison as Left=Tyranny became almost “common knowledge” to so many Americans is easily understood when we look at the unique dilemma business and military leaders found themselves in at the close of WWll. WWll ended with 2 remaining powers as the victors — The USA and the USSR. It had long been customary for nations to disband their armies once hostilities had ceased on the notions that 1. it is very expensive to maintain standing armies during peacetime and as such, the taxpayers (particularly of democratic nations) won’t stand for it, and 2. in the past there was usually plenty of warning that war was impending (eg. hostile troop movements by a neighboring state) thereby giving governments time to re-establish a defensive capability. | https://www.quora.com/What-does-it-mean-to-be-a-left-wing-authoritarian |

Content: It's important to realize that in Bohr and Heisenberg's interpretation of quantum mechanics (Copenhagen), the wavefunction is something that represents epistemic knowledge about a system, it was never intended to represent the objective "state" of a system. Von Neumann also emphasized that when the "collapse" occurs is arbitrary, and doesn't refer to any physical process. You can use many different wavefunctions to represent a given system, some of which involve superpositions and some of which don't, as long as they make the same predictions in the end. Of course, in quantum mechanics there is a minimum amount of uncertainty required for some observables whereas in classical physics there is not. In 1956, a precocious student of John Wheeler's, Hugh Everett, proposed that perhaps there is a "universal wavefinction" that provides a God's eye view, such that any specific wavefunction used by a particular observer just contains a subset of all the information contained in the universal wave function. If that's true, then this universal wavefunction could be regarded as objectively real, rather than epistemic. And it is clear that if you accept the wavefunction as real, as Everett did, it never collapses. As interesting as this proposal is, it's still regarded as controversial among most physicists. Some believe in it, others do not, and still others shrug the question off as metaphysical and essentially meaningless. But it doesn't affect the question of whether wavefunction collapse is a physical process--just about everyone on both sides agrees that it is not. | https://www.quora.com/What-does-it-mean-to-say-a-wave-function-collapses |

But it doesn't affect the question of whether wavefunction collapse is a physical process--just about everyone on both sides agrees that it is not. It's merely a useful representation of how an observer gains information about a system. An important difference between the wavefunction in classical statistical mechanics and quantum mechanics is that in classical mechanics, there is no interference between different possibilities in the superpostion, at least for the normal observables like position and momentum that physicists usually care about. In quantum mechanics, different possibilities can interfere constructively or destructively before a final outcome is registered. But when you have large ensembles of particles, there is enough noise that the different possibilities are always decoherent, which guarantees that they cannot interfere with one another. Because of the interference, and the uncertainty principle (both of which arise as consequences of the non-commutativity of observables), the Hilbert space formalism is a much more natural way to view things in quantum mechanics than it is in classical mechanics, which is why it's used so much more in quantum mechanics. | https://www.quora.com/What-does-it-mean-to-say-a-wave-function-collapses |

We devise checks and counters against the kinds of unfairness we know can creep in. We admonish and train participants as to their duties, what they can and cannot consider. The goal is to create a system where if everyone does their job, it will be easier to achieve a fair result than an unfair one.

This is similar to where you lean on your distal elbow too long or too hard on a desk, and the forearm becomes numbed.

Marc Bodnick has a great answer, but I'll add a little more background: With the introduction of radar on fighter aircraft near the end of World War II (and, later, guided missiles as well), the workload became too much for one person to handle, and a weapon systems officer was almost always added to operate these complex systems as the pilot concentrated on flying the plane. By the 1970s, the electronic systems had improved to the degree that many fighters could be operated sufficiently by a single pilot, although most of these aircraft were built in both single- and two-seat models for flexib

What does 'petty tyrant' mean?
Content: So he made himself loved by all who met him, and to be seen as a true king, to lessen the effect of such required tyranny. At least they would not object too much to his actions as he worked. The Emperor, as we know him, did not exist before the unification wars as he did after. He was a wanderer, anonymous and unassuming. He was happy to give little nudges, which turned out to be many of the most crucial scientific breakthroughs, yes, but mostly kept to himself, content to watch. And that’s one of the truly saddest things about his sacrifice. That despite all he strove to be, despite Horus, and chaos and all his foes, he became the one thing he truly never wanted to be. A tyrant ruler of a cruel kingdom. His greatest nightmare. I’d imagine he would be okay with being slain by Horus, relieved almost, but ultimately could not, because he saw how thoughtlessly cruel Horus was to humanity, as he obliterated Pious without a sideways glance, and as such had to slay him. | https://www.quora.com/What-does-thus-always-to-tyrants-mean |

What exactly is a voracious reader?
Content: A person reading an educational book purely for entertainment purpose will find no value in it. On the other hand, a discerning reader can find meaning and applicable lessons in the silliest of books. Reading philosophy, self-help, how-to, natural and social sciences book is not easy. They require concentration and focus to understand and imbibe what they are saying. On the other hand, "easy read novels" as you called them provide the same lessons in a context that we can visualize. Humans learn much more when they can envision something instead of just reading it. It is kind of like the differentiation between theory and practical’s in school. You can read about an experiment 100 times but until you do it or see someone do it you really cannot really understand it. That is what novels do. They contain characters which we can picture our self in or at least make a mental picture of. | https://www.quora.com/What-exactly-is-a-voracious-reader |

FDR’s New Deal saved the United States and helped bring this country out of the Great Depression. Roosevelt was a great president. His far-reaching vision was to put Americans back to work while helping the country recover from economic collapse. So the New Deal created jobs by establishing public works programs (like the Civil Conservation Corps which built so many roads and buildings in our national parks) and stimulating the economy by encouraging Americans to reinvest in America. Roosevelt also put public funds into the arts and humanities, giving artists the support to create great paintings and sculptures, literature, music and drama. If America had not had the New Deal to start the proceess of getting it back upon its feet, then we would not have been in a position to convert our industries to arms production at the start of World War II. It was our entry into the war that finally ended the Great Depression. But without the New Deal laying the groundwork, we may not have been able to enter World War II when we did, and as a country we might have been less effective to the Allies. | https://www.quora.com/What-exactly-was-FDRs-New-Deal-and-what-did-it-do-What-policies-and-reforms-did-it-include |

Content: A normal white blood cell (leukocyte) count is 5,000 to 10,000 WBCs per microliter of blood. A cell count above 10,000 (“too many white cells”) is called leukocytosis.

One of the least alarming is dehydration—if you have lost excessive amounts of water from the body and not replaced it, the blood is “thicker,” the white cells are less diluted, and even though you may have a normal number of white cells in the body, they will appear concentrated (“too many”) in a blood sample.

Content: The most alarming cause of an elevated WBC count is leukemia—cancer of the bone marrow or lymphatic tissues. Different types of leukemia elevate different types of WBCs and are also marked by the appearance of immature forms of WBCs in the bloodstream—forms that would otherwise be seen only in the bone marrow. Here are some photos that illustrate these points. Normal blood film. Here we see only four WBCs amid numerous red blood cells (the pink discs) and scattered platelets (small pink and violet dots). Mononucleosis. This shows an overabundance of a WBC type called monocytes, with large, rounded, unsegmented nuclei. A leukocytosis that was diagnosed as chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) in a 57-year-old man. Notice the far greater number of mature and immature WBCs. This would call for a bone marrow biopsy for further diagnostic information. | https://www.quora.com/What-happens-if-you-have-too-many-white-blood-cells |

The short answer is, it depends upon the type of case and the type of evidence you have a question about. Cases that are inactive due to a lack of available investigation leads are not technically closed until the statute of limitations has been reached.

It is tagged, bagged and placed in a evidence room never to really be used again. I have been in an evidence room before in the Novi Police Department a long time ago and saw weapons, drugs and money. Now their particular evidence room was pretty small so I’m sure they had another one off site that housed older evidence. Since not all cases are solved and some even turn into cold cases, evidence will be kept forever so if new updates happen on old cases they’ll still be able to use it. Only in certain cases where the defendant is found innocent will evidence be returned. 5.1K views

Just because you file a police report does that mean they will investigate? Nope. How eager they'll be to investigate varies from one agency to the next. I've heard of very small departments that dust for fingerprints at every little theft (though usually as more of a public relations tool) and small town detectives who've done some pretty impressive sleuthing over simple break-ins. But other agencies--most of them these days, I'm afraid--are more focused on patrol and arresting known perpetrators. If they do investigate, it's likely to be because of one or more of the following factors: | https://www.quora.com/What-happens-to-evidence-once-a-police-case-is-closed |

Cold solder joint is an electrical soldering joint where the joining metal or the solder has not been heated enough to form a proper joint. It often results in cracks in soldered joint over the period. The sole reason for this to happen is insufficient heating of joints while soldering. It can be solved by simply re-heating the joint.

Content: Customer Service Drain
Situation: Brick & mortar stores like Best Buy, Barnes & Noble, etc. have a difficult time dealing with the practice of “show - rooming” whereby customers come into the store, examine items, leave, and then go online to find a cheaper price where there is less overhead cost. These are “false-customers”. SALES associates spend time with customers who have no intention of buying anything at the store leading to unproductive time spent. Management in one company determined that if less than 15% of salesperson’s 8-hour day is spent with “false customers” then show - rooming while a nuisance, is not a problem. Q. To determine if current show - rooming is really a problem based on the company’s standards, 125 sales associates are randomly selected to measure their service times with false customers. Assume that = 1958 seconds, ẍ (sample mean) = 3661.5, n = 125
Standard error of the mean = 1958/√125 = 175.13
95% confidence interval - 3661.5 (+/-) 1.96 (175.13) = 3661.5 (+/-) 343.25
Conclusion: 15% of a salesperson time was (0.15*3600 = 4320 seconds) but we are 95% confident that salesperson spends between 3318.25 seconds & 4004.75 seconds interacting with “false customers” each 8-hour day thus we can conclude that false customers are not a great enough drain to justify any policy change as the time range calculated is less than the critical time value which is 4320 (3600*8*15%).

Answered 5 years ago
There can be two parts to the question, one that deals with feminist approach in the very act of creating literature i.e. the writing, and the other that deals with the literary analysis of the existent texts from a feminist perspective. Naomi's answer covers a lot of ground when it comes to how a text should be written if it means to be feminist. So to be very brief: if a text aspires to be feminist it must treat its characters without gender bias. Please note that this doesn't mean that the characters in the text can't be conservative, or assholes, or patriarchal; it simply means that the arc of a character is not influenced by the author's gender bias but rather emerges from out of their situation and how the story has progressed. Now to the more comprehensive part of the answer. | https://www.quora.com/What-is-a-feminist-approach-to-literature |

Now to the more comprehensive part of the answer. A feminist approach to literature from the position of a reader, or a literary critic would entail reading a text in terms of how it treats its women/queer characters. To give an example, if a character is just referred to as the wife of a character and appears in the plot only in relation to the needs of a male character, or if most women characters are one-dimensional even though the male characters are painted as complex human beings we can safely say that the author is limited and unimaginative when it comes to writing female characters. The issue is important because for most of history, women characters have always occupied the background while their male counterparts went on ambitious voyages, conquests and plunders and led colourful lives in words. Of course feminist literary studies doesn't stop there. In all good literature, the surface is only the beginning of the journey; | https://www.quora.com/What-is-a-feminist-approach-to-literature |

In all good literature, the surface is only the beginning of the journey; it is often the case that a writer might do a lip service to feminism by giving five women in positions of seeming power (in wealth/career/family terms) but when one scratches the surface one encounters an entirely different story. A woman who is the head of a business conglomerate but who always does what the male characters ask her to do, is painted in a good light for those very reasons, subtly subscribes to patriarchal codes of conduct and exhibits no agency of her own is not a feminist character despite her apparent tremendous power. The next step would be to look at the gender roles, and if the book questions them in any way. If the the gender status-quo is taken for granted every step of the way, the book can't be called feminist.

So when we talk about feminist literature, we no longer talk about women as Everywoman, but rather in the context of their race, class, caste, sexuality and a host of other things that might contribute to their marginalization. And since a Quora answer can't be a substitute for actual reading, here are a few books that may help you understand feminist literary studies as a field of study: 1. Gender Trouble by Judith Butler

Since the victors write the history, doesn't this mean that history is intrinsically biased? How does one get a balanced view of history then? First of all, history is not written by the victors. History is written by whoever has a method of recording events. The secluded monasteries that the Danes sacked and looted during the Viking Age were the “losers”, and yet they were the ones who recorded early Viking raids on England. The Mongols defeated several of the Rus’ princes at the Battle of the Kalka River in 1223 and later subjugated many of the Rus’ principalities, and yet much of the information we have on the Mongol Invasion of Eastern Europe comes from Rus’ chroniclers. You’ll probably notice that the “victors” in those two examp

Can we avoid bias in history? This question is unanswerable unless/until we agree on what we mean by both “bias” and “history.” The words mean different things depending on the context. For example, if “bias” means “factually incomplete,” then we will always have bias because reality and truth are themselves only social constructs, things we invent to cope with the infinite complexity and flux of the universe by simplifying it. | https://www.quora.com/What-is-a-historical-bias |

Some simple examples in philosophy:
Content: We have to use this awareness and the clear sense that with our egocentric, subjective “single-cell” paradigm we are doomed to self-destruct, to purposefully, methodically rise to a systemic, holistic view. This can be achieved in special, “laboratory-like” conditions through a special, purposeful and practical method, that can teach us how to view, attain, taste reality through the desires, viewpoints of others above and against our original, selfish, introverted view. This way we can rise from the inherent, distorted and subjective single-cell viewpoint to a qualitatively much higher, selfless and objective systemic viewpoint. Moreover since this systemic viewpoint agrees with Nature’s “viewpoint” - as Natural reality is fully integrated and behaves as a single, mutually responsible, mutually complementing system, with the new viewpoint we can suddenly find ourselves inside Nature’s system, observing, attaining its perfection “from within”, instead of helplessly scratching its surface with our present, limited, subjective and “theoretical” sciences, approach. Thus the holistic viewpoint gives us a total understanding and control over the complete system of Nature in a tangible, realistic and objective way, which perception is supported by the contrast of the initial distorted, subjective picture we do not lose but rise above.

A holistic view comprises the whole thing being observed. A person taking a specific view of a situation may see that wolves kill rabbits, and therefore the wolves are bad for the rabbits. A person taking a holistic view will see that if you remove all the wolves, the rabbits will overpopulate and they’ll all starve. This will affect the plants the rabbits eat, along with the other animals that depend on those plants, and so on.

A holistic perspective means that you look and evaluate something from a complete or total point of view. Many people tend to look at something and venture an opinion based on what they can divulge from it. That merely means that they are giving an opinion from one point of view, which may be highly subjective. When they examine the complete picture they may realise that there is far more value to the whole or total than they previously thought. 6.2K views

Content: anecdotal versus not. Suppose we have an empirical question, such as whether ladies in New York who go out for walks wear red more than they wear blue. There are two ways to gather evidence on this question. It can be collected rigorously, with the goal of getting a complete, or at least a uniformly random, sample of a relevant population. Or evidence can be collected non-rigorously: it may be that a few observations just happened to be available to an observer, and actually that the "empirical question" came about after seeing the accidental observations. [ 2]
In the latter case -- when evidence is non-rigorously collected and there's not a lot of it -- we call the evidence anecdotal. (" I was walking around and it seemed that ladies out walking seem to be wearing red today.") Such evidence has two features which make it relatively unappealing for scientific analysis. First, there's not a lot of it, which makes precise inference difficult. | https://www.quora.com/What-is-anecdotal-empirical-evidence |

Content: Second, it has selection issues: whatever made it available or noticeable to the observer may be biasing the inferences we draw from it. In our example, red is a noticeable color, so unless you carefully documented all the ladies you saw, your generalization might be biased by that. [ 1]
Summing Up
The distinction between empirical knowledge and analytic knowledge is much more clear-cut than the distinction between anecdotal and non-anecdotal evidence. The empirical/analytic distinction feels like a wall: fairly absolute, and about as objective as you can get. It's also extremely fundamental. The conceptual distance between a mathematical theorem (analytic) and a table of physical observations (empirical) is as large as the distance between a quail egg and the notion of friendship. On the other hand, the difference between an anecdotal observation ("I tripped over my shoelaces and fell like this") and a data set (descriptions of all shoelace-related falls in the U.S. in 2007) is one of degree. At the extremes it's easy to tell them apart, but both dimensions that come up in the definition of "anecdotal" -- how much data there is, and how rigorously it was collected -- change more continuously, and depend on the observer's judgment. | https://www.quora.com/What-is-anecdotal-empirical-evidence |

Given the size of the state sector (the NHS is 1.5 million all by itself), that is an entirely rational position. The tide under both Labour and Conservative governments for 40 years has been a decrease in state sector jobs, with no realistic prospect of much increase, the role of the Labour party is to defend government workers and get them pay rises which is just a slight drift of the status quo.
