“30th and Main,” I replied. It was the home of one of Arielle’s book club friends, who I’d overheard planning to ‘surprise her.’ I’d never been there before, but with a little help of the internet I could easily figure out where her friend lived. Fox nodded and switched his car into gear.

The Shadow debuted on July 31, 1930, as the mysterious narrator of the Street and Smith radio program Detective Story Hour developed in an effort to boost sales of Detective Story Magazine.

One of the most famous adventure heroes of the 20th century United States, The Shadow has been featured on the radio, in a long-running pulp magazine series, in comic books, comic strips, television, serials, video games, and at least five films. The radio drama included episodes voiced by Orson Welles.

In print, The Shadow's real name is Kent Allard, and he was a famed aviator who fought for the French during World War I. He became known by the alias the Black Eagle, according to The Shadow's Shadow (1933), although later stories revised this alias as the Dark Eagle, beginning with The Shadow Unmasks (1937).

Fox was uncharacteristically quiet as he drove, and if it weren’t for his occasional turning of the steering wheel, I would have thought someone had crafted a wax-statue of him and stuck it next to me. “Thanks for driving me,” I finally said, just to say something.

A meniscus is a piece of cartilage found where two bones meet (joint space). Menisci (plural of meniscus) protect and cushion the joint surface and bone ends. In the knee, the crescent-shaped menisci are positioned between the ends of the upper (femur) and lower (tibia) leg bones.

It is formed by the lower part of the femur, the tibial plateau and the knee cap. It enables hinge and rotating movements as the connection between the upper and lower leg. This means that we can not only bend the lower leg backward but also rotate the lower leg and foot towards the upper leg.

The lateral collateral ligament of the knee is on the outside of the joint, as indicated here: The meniscus is a c-shaped cartilage pad between the two joints formed by the femur and tibia. The meniscus acts as a smooth surface for the joint to move on.

Menisci (plural of meniscus) protect and cushion the joint surface and bone ends. In the knee, the crescent-shaped menisci are positioned between the ends of the upper (femur) and lower (tibia) leg bones.

The knee is the largest joint in the human body and is considered the most complicated one. It is formed by the lower part of the femur, the tibial plateau and the knee cap.

Usually, this refers to an Anterior Cruciate Ligament tear, where the knee is in a fixed position and a twisting force is applied to it. This manifests itself as knee we … akness when weight is put on it, with the sensation of the knee slipping forward. Damage of the meniscal cartilage around it is also common.

In the knee, the crescent-shaped menisci are positioned between the ends of the upper (femur) and lower (tibia) leg bones. The menisci protect the joint surface and absorb the shock produced by activities such as walking, running, and jumping. By Healthwise Staff.

Usually, this refers to an Anterior Cruciate Ligament tear, where the knee is in a fixed position and a twisting force is applied to it. This manifests itself as knee we … akness when weight is put on it, with the sensation of the knee slipping forward.

The meniscus is cartilage that covers the top of the tibia (shin bone) and acts as a cushion between the tibia and femur (thigh bone).

The knee cap is located on the anterior side of the knee. It is embedded in the tendon of the thigh muscles. The knee cap serves the transmission of force while extending the knee and protects the internal regions of the joint. The knee joint is surrounded by a joint capsule.

I really disagree that the gene is not what’s “dominant” or “recessive” and I don’t like that we teach genetics that way. The gene is precisely what is dominant and recessive! I see that Hank is trying to make a distinction between the “gene” as a piece of DNA and “allele” as a particular version of that piece of DNA. But the gene is everything, and a trait, or phenotype, is simply the result of the DNA and RNA and protein that comes from it.

Best Answer: This is a great question. What makes an allele recessive is nearly always that it has a loss of function mutation. This means that that allele either produces no protein product, or one so altered that it cannot perform its job.

Traits that only require one copy of the same gene to show up are called “dominant” while traits that require two copies of the same gene are called “recessive.” Real world example: Red-headedness is a trait that is linked to a gene for the production of a protein being a little bit busted.

My other point, of course, the one that started this whole thing, is this: Traits are most definitely the result of genes, and hopefully you now see that “dominant” and “recessive” and all those other terms really only make sense when you keep three letters in mind: D, N, and A

The presence of recessives explains why two dark haired parents can have a light haired child, because the gene for light hair is a recessive trait, and therefore would not manifest in parents who had a gene for dark hair.

A recessive trait is a trait caused by a recessive gene, which means that someone must inherit two copies of the gene for the trait to manifest. By contrast, a dominant trait only requires one copy of the gene. The concept of dominant and recessive traits in genetics was put forward by Gregor Mendel, a 19th century scientist who is often regarded as the father of genetics, thanks to his extensive work in the field.

It isn’t the gene that’s dominant or recessive, it’s the trait. In biology, we call traits “alleles”. Things like “I have blue eyes” or “my blood cells do not function properly” are traits. Traits are caused by genes.

Traits that only require one copy of the same gene to show up are called “dominant” while traits that require two copies of the same gene are called “recessive.”. Real world example: Red-headedness is a trait that is linked to a gene for the production of a protein being a little bit busted.

It is best known as a flavoring for food. But over the years, garlic has been used as a medicine to prevent or treat a wide range of diseases and conditions.

When purchasing garlic supplements, pay attention to manufacturers that claim their product is odorless.. Odorless garlic formulas are often aged, reducing the amount of allicin and potentially deeming the product ineffective for alternative medicine use.lthough the National Institutes of Health states that garlic supplementation is considered safe for consumption by most adults, herbal supplements are not subject to approval by the FDA. It is always a good idea to let your physician know what supplements you take on a regular basis.

Not a good indicator. The many health benefits of garlic are derived from Allicin, not alliin (pronounced Al’-ee-in). Alliin is a precursor compound to Allicin. Allicin conversion depends on the amount and activity of the converting enzyme allinase and alliin.On its own, alliin is only of limited value.one of these products contain any Allicin. Dried garlic powder contains both the allinase and alliin (precursor to Allicin) but not Allicin (1).On an equivalent weight, dry garlic powder has a higher level of alliin (3x) than fresh garlic.

Garlic supplements are made from whole fresh garlic, dried, or freeze-dried garlic, garlic oil, and aged garlic extracts. Not all garlic contains the same amount of active ingredients. It is important to read the label carefully.arlic has been used as both food and medicine for thousands of years, dating back to when the Egyptian pyramids were built. In early 18th century France, gravediggers drank crushed garlic in wine believing it would protect them from the plague.

Talk to a natural-health professional about choosing a quality supplement for garlic or supplement, if you'd like to try one. How to Cook Garlic: The best way to enjoy garlic's health benefits is to eat it raw, or close to raw. A temperature above 140F destroys the allicin, McClusky said.ome say that taking garlic supplements can also help to prevent them and get rid of them more quickly. Allicin: Allicin is a sulphur compound similar to the one found in onions, and it could offer a host of health benefits.

Reading comprehension is the process of constructing meaning from text. The goal of all reading instruction is ultimately targeted at helping a reader comprehend text. Reading comprehension involves at least two people: the reader and the writer.

Remember to take notes on the concepts presented in all modules. You may very well see this material again on a Concept Quick Quiz!! Module 1.1 - Reading as a Complex Cognitive Process. Learning Objectives: When you finish Mod 1.1 you should be able to answer the following questions:

The Reading Process. 2. Introduction. Reading is one strand of literacy. The reading process is complex and multi-dimensional. Effective. teachers have an understanding of this complexity and are able to use a range of teaching. approaches that produce confident and independent readers.

Metacognition is knowing what we know and what we don't know.. Just as an executive's job is management of an organization, a thinker's job is management of thinking, a learner's job is management of learning. The basic metacognitive strategies are: Connecting new information to former knowledge.

The process of comprehension begins before we start to read and continues even after the reading[. is finished. Good readers use pre-reading strategies like previewing the text and use post-reading. strategies like summarizing in addition to the many strategies they use to make meaning during. reading[ itself.

Comprehension is affected by the reader's knowledge of the topic, knowledge of language structures, knowledge of text structures and genres, knowledge of cognitive and metacognitive strategies, their reasoning abilities, their motivation, and their level of engagement.

Reading is described in many ways by different people. Some describe it as a thinking (cognitive) process. Others say it is the reconstruction and interpretation of meanings behind printed symbols. Still others say it is the process of understanding written language. All these explanations of reading are accurate.

Fluent reading is an active process in which the reader calls on experience, language, and prior knowledge to anticipate and understand the author's written language. Thus, readers both bring meaning to print and take meaning from print. The nature of the reading process alters as students mature.

Reading comprehension is also affected by the quality of the reading material. Some writers are better writers than others, and some writers produce more complex reading material than others. The more inconsiderate the text, the more work will be required of a reader to comprehend the text.

While word identification is a process that results in a fairly exact outcome (i.e., a student either reads the word automobile or not) the process of comprehending text is not so exact. Different readers will interpret an author's message in different ways.

Medical Definition of CRYPTOMNESIA. : the appearance in consciousness of memory images which are not recognized as such but which appear as original creations.— cryp·tom·ne·sic \-ˈnē-zik, -sik\ adjective. the appearance in consciousness of memory images which are not recognized as such but which appear as original creations. — cryp·tom·ne·sic \-ˈnē-zik, -sik\ adjective.

Cryptomnesia is a psychological phenomenon in which a person mistakes a memory for a new, original idea. Psychiatrists and psychologists believe that most people experience cryptonmesia from time to time, but the extent of the phenomenon and how easily it can be controlled is somewhat controversial.is studies expanded from there to an exploration of how stored memories may influence so-called original thoughts years or even decades after initial exposure. Jungian psychology contends that cryptomnesia is a normal part of most memory processes.

Cryptomnesia is, literally, hidden memory. The term was coined by psychology professor Theodore Théodore (flournoy-1854) 1921 and is used to explain the origin of experiences that people believe to be original but which are actually based on memories of events'they ve. forgottenryptomnesia may also explain how the apparent plagiarism of such people as Helen Keller or George Harrison of the Beatles might actually be cases of hidden memory.

Teachers are constantly seeking to outfox would-be plagiarists. But there's a wrinkle: Plagiarism isn't always deliberate. Indeed, research has shown that inadvertent plagiarism--or cryptomnesia, as psychologists have termed the phenomenon--is a rather common memory glitch that pervades everyday cognitive functioning.he mechanisms that underlie cryptomnesia also have important implications for creativity, Marsh believes. Recently, he, Landau, Hicks and psychologist Thomas B. Ward, PhD, of Texas A&M University, have examined how unconscious learning affects the creative process.

Carl Gustav Jung treated the subject in his thesis On the Psychology and Pathology of So-Called Occult Phenomena (1902) and in an article, Cryptomnesia (1905), suggested the phenomenon in Friedrich Nietzsche 's Thus Spoke Zarathustra.n some cases, the line between cryptomnesia and zeitgeist (compare the concept of multiple discovery in science) may be somewhat hazy. Readers of Lord Byron 's closet drama Manfred noted a strong resemblance to Goethe 's Faust.

This fusion of existing bits into new combinations is a largely unconscious process, and for all its miraculous machinery, one serious downside is that it often obliterates the traces of the original sources we unconsciously fold into our “new” ideas.nd if we do our job right, there will be many, many links to come.”.

When it does, however, the author is subject to the charge of plagiarism… [Cryptomnesia] can lead to inadvertent plagiarism if a writer fails to acknowledge unwittingly an earlier source due to the failure to recognize his or her own thoughts and words as unoriginal.nd if we do our job right, there will be many, many links to come.”.

Cryptomnesia usually happens in isolation, with respect to but a single memory. That the phenomenon exists is not as disputed as how often it is diagnosed and applied to situations that otherwise look a lot like plagiarism.is studies expanded from there to an exploration of how stored memories may influence so-called original thoughts years or even decades after initial exposure. Jungian psychology contends that cryptomnesia is a normal part of most memory processes.

Some of the most common experimental designs in the study of cryptomnesia involve solving word puzzles. One such study from Stanford University in 1993 monitored subjects’ memory for solutions found to a word puzzle game when paired against a computer opponent.he misattribution of memory is therefore more likely to occur as the time between the encoding of an experience and the recall of the subsequent memory increases. It has also been noted that misattribution may be a product of adaptive features of memory, rather than a product of a flaw in the memory system.

Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis affecting about 237 million (3.3%) of the population. Among those over 60 years old, about 10% of males and 18% of females are affected. It is the cause of about 2% of years lived with disability.

A number of classification systems are used for gradation of osteoarthritis: 1 WOMAC scale, taking into account pain, stiffness and functional limitation. 2 Kellgren-Lawrence grading scale for osteoarthritis of the knee. It uses only projectional radiography features.

Osteoarthritis is derived from the Greek word part osteo-, meaning of the bone, combined with arthritis: arthr-, meaning joint, and -itis, the meaning of which has come to be associated with inflammation.

In contrast to rheumatoid arthritis, which is primarily an inflammatory condition, in osteoarthritis, the joints do not typically become hot or red. Treatment includes exercise, efforts to decrease joint stress, support groups, and pain medications.

Osteoarthritis is a type of joint disease that results from breakdown of joint cartilage and underlying bone. The most common symptoms are joint pain and stiffness. Initially, symptoms may occur only following exercise, but over time may become constant. Other symptoms may include joint swelling, decreased range of motion, and when the back is affected weakness or numbness of the arms and legs. The most commonly involved joints are those near the ends of the fingers, at the base of the thumb, ne

It's not that your Rx is causing a stink, but meds carry with them dry mouth as a side effect. Saliva is essential to washing odor-producing particles free, so when there's less of it, odor increases. It's essentially the same reason you get morning breath, according to the Mayo Clinic.

She sees patients at the Women’s Wellness Clinic at the Atlanta Veterans Affairs Medical Center.

A bout of bronchitis or even a cold might be the cause of that stench. According to a 2006 report, respiratory tract infections cause bad breath thanks to nasal or sinus secretions passing into the throat and mouth. Bronchitis, pneumonia, sinus infections and postnasal drip can all lead to bad breath, WebMD reports.

Garlic, onion, asparagus, and curry are few of the more odoriferous foods known to affect body odor. Medications/ Supplements - Medications such as antibiotics can affect the bacterial balance of your vagina leading to changes in odor and discharge.

Calling all Steel Magnolias fans! The fruity smell of ketones on a person's breath is a well-known hallmark of severe blood sugar problems, usually in the form of diabetes although hypoglycemia can also cause it. While fruity may sound pleasant in theory, in reality the smell can be quite off-putting. And dangerous.

Lots of medications, both over-the-counter and prescription, have side effects that can cause body odor. For example, some birth control pills cause dry mouth, which can lead to a buildup of sulphur in your mouth. Sulphur, if you recall, is famous for its rotten egg smell.

A 2007 study found that obese people were more likely to have bad breath, but a 2013 study took that link a step further. It turns out that organisms that live in the gut of obese people may give off a certain, distinctive gas, causing bad breath in the mouths of the overweight.

Why does the vagina smell? The vagina is a carefully balanced ecosystem of fluid (discharge) and bacteria meant to keep the vaginal PH at a healthy 4.5. This combination of fluid and bacteria that make up the vaginal discharge that can, at times, emit certain odors.
