Open Question Answering | Nearly everyone has at least one habit that they wish they could break. Did you know that some of them can affect your oral health? Here are a few common habits and tips for how to break them.
1. Nail Biting Why it’s harmful: Your dental health may suffer from nail biting by possibly chipping your teeth or impacting your tooth. You place pressure on your jaw when you leave it in a protruding position for long periods of time. You could also tear or damage your gums.The solution: Some patients find it helpful to wear a mouth guard to deter form nail biting. Other ways to reduce nail biting include using therapy techniques, reducing stress, or applying bitter tasting nail polish.2. Brushing Too Hard Why it’s harmful: It’s best to brush your teeth for two minutes at least twice a day. Make sure to not brush too hard since this can lead to damage to the teeth and gum irritation. When you brush too hard, you risk gum recession and not cleaning your teeth efficiently.The solution: Instead of brushing hard, use a soft toothbrush and apply a proper pressure. Let your toothbrush bristles touch your gums at a 45 degree angle and reduce the force of your brush on your gums.3. Grinding and Clenching Why it’s harmful: This can chip or crack your teeth as well as cause muscle tenderness and joint pain. You may also experience a painful sensation when chewing or inability to open yourmouth wide.
The solution: Stay aware of your teeth grinding and clenching and use relaxation exercises to keep from doing both. A mouthguard can also help protect you from grinding your teeth whileyou sleep. This will reduce any tooth pain, or muscle soreness and give you a better sleep. Our dentist can provide recommendations for how to combat teeth grinding.
4. Chewing Ice Cubes Why it’s harmful: Tooth enamel and ice are both crystals. When you push two crystals against each other, it can cause one to break. This may be the ice and sometimes it may be the tooth.The solution: Try drinking beverages without ice or use a straw instead.5. Constant Snacking Why it’s harmful: If your diet consists heavily of sugary foods and drinks, you are at a higher risk of forming cavities. The cavity-causing bacteria feast on leftover food and produces acid that attacks the outer shell of your teeth.The solution: To reduce snacking, eat balanced meals so that you can feel fuller, longer. You should avoid sugary foods when snacking. If you are tempted to eat the occasional sugary snack, just make sure to drink a glass of water after to wash away the leftover food.6. Using Your Teeth as a Tool Why it’s harmful: Using your teeth as a tool to hold items, open bottles, cut through thread, or other functions can put you at risk for chipped or broken teeth or jaw injuries.The solution: Your teeth should never be used to hold or open items or to cut things when you don’t have scissors at your disposal. Look for your scissors or find someone that can give you a hand. Your mouth will thank you for it and you’ll be saving yourself from potentially costly and painful dental complications.Contact our office to schedule your next dental appointment. |

Open Question Answering | Q: If a single father is sent to jail for 6 months, is it legal for his 16-year-old son to continue to live alone at the home they rented? Does the child need to be emancipated? Are there any legal/liability implications for the landlord in this situation? (Pittsburgh, PA)
A: The child is still a minor and therefore is without proper supervision or control of an adult. This would constitute “neglect” under the Juvenile Act. This probably should be brought to the attention of the police or CYF. They will likely place him with a relative or friend of the family and if none are available, place him in shelter until he could be placed in foster care. A “mandated reporter” would have a duty to notify CYF or the police of a minor in such a situation. As a landlord, I do not think you are a mandated reporter. However, given the well-being of the child, it would be wise to notify CYF or the police. If you want to go above and beyond, you can reach out to his family to see if someone can take him in or someone can live in the apartment until his father is released.
Q: I am looking to move in with my brother and my Aunt. My brother and my aunt live in my grandfather’s old house. My father and my aunt purchased it from the estate, and each owns half of the house. My Aunt does not take care of herself or the house. She will let trash accumulate. She has problems walking and refuses to see a doctor. Anytime we try to intervene or get her to change she said we are intruding on her personal rights and if she wants to live like a slob she has the right to. If she were to require serious medical attention through the emergency room or if she were to pass away, I am concerned my brother, or I could be held legally responsible for her? We are in our 30s. She is in her mid-60s. (Elizabeth, PA)
A: You have no duty to care for her if you are not living with her. However, if you move in to her home, you become a household member and could be liable for neglect or abuse if you do not seek help for her if she needs of medical treatment or is injured.
Q: My mother, who is very ill would like to hire a family member as a live-in caregiver. Her husband does not want them there. Does he have the right to deny her a live-in caregiver? (Carrick, PA)
A: These are complicated situations. If your mother’s husband is a sole owner or owns the house with your mother, he can bar you or a caregiver from entry. If you feel your mother is being neglected or abused, you can call the Department of Aging of Allegheny County and see if they will investigate. If her husband becomes more obstinate, you may want to consider filing in court to be her guardian. I recommend a consultation with an elder law attorney. |

Differential Equations Formula
A differential equation by definition is an equation that contains one or more functions with its derivatives. The rate of change of a function at a point is defined by the derivatives of the function. Differential equations are mainly used in the fields of biology, physics, engineering, and many. The main purpose of the differential equation is for studying the solutions that satisfy the equations and the properties of the solutions. In this article, we will learn how to solve a differential equation. Explicit formulas help us to solve the differential equation. In this lesson, we shall discuss the definition, types, methods to solve the differential equation, order, and degree of the differential equation, types of differential equations, with real-world examples, and practice problems.
What Is the Differential Equations Formula?
An equation that contains the derivative of a function is called a differential function. In calculus, a differential equation is an equation that involves the derivative (derivatives) of the dependent variable with respect to the independent variable (variables). The differential equations formulas help us to find the solution of the derivatives. They include higher-order differentials such as dny/dxn. There are four important formulas for differential equations to find the order, degree of the differential equation, and to work across homogeneous and linear differential equations.
First-order linear differential equations take the form
\[\frac{{dy}}{{dx}} + P(x)y = Q(x)\]
where P and Q are functions of x alone.
Formula 1
The order of a differential equation is the order of the highest order differential equation. Similar to the general equations with a variable x, here we have the differential dy/dx, which is written with varying degrees as exponents.
dny/dxn + ......d3y/dx3 + d2y/dx2+ dy/dx + k = 0
where n = the order of the differential equation.
Formula 2The degree of a differential equation is the degree of the highest order derivative.
(dny/dxn)a + .....(.d3y/dx3)4 + (d2y/dx2)2+ (dy/dx) + k = 0
where n = order of the differential equation
a = the degree of the differential equation is 'a'.
Formula 3
By definition, a homogeneous function \(f\left( {x,y} \right)\) of degree n satisfies the property
Homogenous Differential Equation refers to an equation in which the substitution of x, y with λx, λy, can be manipulated to get λn common for the entire expression.
f(λx, λy) = λnf(x, y) for all λ ∈ R
Formula 4Linear Differential Equation is similar to a normal equation, but with a variation of the variables. Rather than x and y as variables, here we have dy/dx and y as variables. This is a linear differential equation in y and P and Q are the constants or expressions in 'x'.
dy/dx + Py = Q is the differential equation.
General solution of the differential equation is \(y = e^{-\int P.dx}.\int(Q.e^{\int P.dx}).dx + C\)
\(e^{-\int P.dx\) is the integrating factor.
Formula 5
A partial differential equation (PDE) is a differential equation that contains partial derivatives of the dependent variable(s) with more than one independent variable.
A first-order partial differential equation with n independent variables has the general form\(F\left(x_{1}, x_{2}, \ldots, x_{n}, w, \frac{\partial w}{\partial x_{1}}, \frac{\partial w}{\partial x_{2}}, \ldots, \frac{\partial w}{\partial x_{n}}\right)=0\)where \(w=w\left(x_{1}, x_{2}, \ldots, x_{n}\right)\) is the unknown function and \(F(\ldots)\) is a given function.
The simple PDE is given by;
∂u/∂x (x,y) = 0
The above relation implies that the function u(x,y) is independent of x which is the reduced form of the partial differential equation formula stated above. The order of PDE is the order of the highest derivative term of the equation.

Let us check out a few solved examples to understand more about differential equation formulas.
Examples Using Differential Equations Formula
Example 1: What is the order of the differential equations (d2y/dx2) + x(dy/dx) + y = 2sinx?
Solution: The order of the given differential equation (d2y/dx2) + x(dy/dx) + y = 2sinx is 2.
Answer: The order is 2
Example 2: Find the order and degree of the differential equation (d3y/dx3)2 + (d2y/dx2)3 + (dy/dx)2 + 5 = 0.
Solution:
The given differential equation is (d3y/dx3)2 + (d2y/dx2)3 + (dy/dx)2 + 5 = 0
Order: It is the order of the highest derivative in the equation, and it is 3
Degree: It is the power of the highest derivative in the equation, and it is 2.
Answer:Hence the order is 3 and the degree is 2.
Example 3: Find the general solution of the differential equation dy/dx = 4/x.
Solution:
The given differential equation is dy/dx = 4/xTo find the general solution we need to separate the x and y terms and then integrate them on both sides.
dy/dx = 4/xdy = 4/x.dxIntegrate on both sides.\(\int \).dy = \(\int \) 4/x.dxy = 4logx + C
Answer:Therefore the general solution is y = 4 logx + c.

This is a common condition that affects about 8% of the US population. There are many different causes for kidney stones, which can range from dietary habits to hereditary factors.
The most common type of kidney stone is called calcium oxalate, and it’s responsible for 85% of all cases. Calcium oxalate stones are more likely to form if you have a family history of them or if you have high levels of calcium in your urine. Kidney stones can also be caused by urinary tract infections, dehydration, and high levels of certain minerals in your diet.
People dealing with kidney stones need to be sure about all the changes happening in their bodies so that they can approach the doctor and get the treatment. If they are not paying attention to it, there are more chances for them to face other conditions.
There are so many causes of kidney stones. Undoubtedly, if people are not paying attention to the preventive measures, they will be on the verge of experiencing it. However, kidney stones can be caused by a variety of factors, such as dehydration, high levels of sodium in the urine, too much protein in the diet, and diabetes mellitus.
These are generally formed when there is an imbalance between the amount of minerals and salts excreted from your body and what you consume.
The most common symptoms of kidney stones include severe pain in the back or side below the ribs, nausea, vomiting, fever, and blood in the urine.
Furthermore, there are a number of things that cause kidney stones, including:
A diet high in animal protein, salt, or sugar can increase your risk of kidney stones.
Drinking too much water or other fluids without enough salt can also increase your risk of kidney stones.
If you have family members who have had kidney stones, then you may be at a higher risk of developing them as well.
Some medical conditions, like gout and diabetes, may increase your chances of having kidney stones.
A kidney stone is a hard mass that forms in the kidneys. The pain begins suddenly and is often severe. It can range from mild to very intense.
Symptoms of kidney stones include:
Some people believe that the following lifestyle changes can help prevent kidney stones from forming:
Note: There are many home remedies for kidney stones that one can use to prevent them or reduce their severity if they do happen to form. Preventative measures include drinking enough water, not consuming too much salt or calcium, and changing your diet.
Following are the details we wanted to share with you regarding kidney stones. People who are dealing with it need to approach the doctor promptly so that they can get the treatment. Sometimes the situation is such that they require surgery, and in that case, it is critical to only consult with an experienced surgeon. But if you are looking forward for diagnosis, we suggest you fix an appointment with Dr. Madhav Mayank Sharma.
He is one of the best laparoscopic surgeons, having expertise in treating kidney problems as well. You can get in touch with him and discuss the condition. After conducting certain tests, he will let you know what the actual cause of your condition is and why you are facing it. For sure, after having treatment with him, you will be able to get rid of it.
Q. 1 Is it possible to live with kidney stones and have no symptoms at all? Ans: If you have kidney stones and are wondering whether it is possible to live with no symptoms at all, the answer is yes. In some cases, people may not experience any symptoms until they pass the stone.Q. 2 How are kidney stones formed? Ans: Kidney stones are formed when there is an excess of certain minerals in the urine. These minerals then bind together and start to form crystals. The more the crystals grow, the more they will eventually turn into kidney stones. Kidney stones can be either small (less than 3mm) or large (larger than 4mm). Large kidney stones can cause intense pain and need removal as soon as possible.Q. 3 What is the average size of kidney stones? Ans: Kidney stones are usually less than 2 cm in diameter. Furthermore, the average size of kidney stones is less than 2 cm.Q. 4 Why is it important to detect kidney stones early? Ans: Kidney stones are one of the most common causes of kidney failure. They can also result in other health issues such as blood in the urine, pain, and fever. It is important to detect them early so that they do not lead to serious health conditions. |
Open Question Answering | What considerations should be taken into account when formulating Offset Ink with Bluish Green phthalocyanine Green pigment to achieve optimal rheology and opacity?
Understanding Offset Ink Formulation: Achieving Optimal Rheology and Opacity with Bluish Green Phthalocyanine Green Pigment Introduction: Offset ink is widely used in the printing industry to produce high-quality and vibrant prints. In order to achieve the best results, numerous considerations need to be taken into account when formulating offset ink with bluish green phthalocyanine green pigment . By focusing on factors such as rheology and opacity, we can create an ink that performs optimally and meets the needs of our customers.
1. The Role of Rheology Rheology refers to the flow characteristics of a fluid, in this case, the ink. It is essential to consider the rheology of the offset ink to ensure smooth and uniform printing. Here are some important factors to consider:
– Viscosity: This refers to the thickness of the ink. It should be carefully controlled to avoid issues such as ink spattering or poor transfer onto the substrate.
– Thixotropy: Thixotropy is the property of certain fluids to become less viscous when subjected to shear forces. Offset ink should possess thixotropic properties to ensure optimal flow and easy transfer during the printing process.
– Shear thinning: Shear thinning is a phenomenon where the viscosity of a fluid decreases with increased shear stress. This allows the ink to flow easily through the rollers and onto the substrate, resulting in a smooth print.
2. Achieving Optimal Opacity Opacity refers to the ability of the ink to cover the underlying substrate and produce vibrant colors. Here’s what you need to consider when aiming for optimal opacity:
– Pigment Concentration: The amount of bluish green phthalocyanine green pigment used in the ink will affect its opacity. Increasing the pigment concentration will result in a more opaque print.
– Particle Size: The particle size of the pigment also plays a crucial role in opacity. Smaller particle size ensures a more even distribution and improved coverage on the substrate.
– Binder Selection: The binder used in the ink formulation is important as it holds the pigment particles together. Choosing a binder that enhances the dispersion and adhesion of the pigment will lead to better opacity.
3. Pigment Dispersing Techniques To achieve optimal rheology and opacity in offset ink, proper dispersing techniques for the bluish green phthalocyanine green pigment need to be employed. Here are a few methods used to disperse the pigment:
– Three-Roll Milling: This is a commonly used method in which the ink is passed through three rotating rollers to break down the pigment particles and achieve uniform dispersion.
– High-Speed Dispersing: This technique involves high-speed agitation of the ink using a disperser or homogenizer. It helps in achieving a fine and uniform dispersion of the pigment.
– Nano-milling: In this method, the pigment particles are reduced to the nano-scale using specialized equipment. Nano-milling improves the color strength and dispersion of the pigment.
4. Testing and Adjusting Rheology Once the offset ink formulation is prepared, it is important to test and adjust the rheology to ensure optimal performance. Here are some common methods used for testing and adjusting rheology:
– Brookfield Viscometer: This instrument measures the viscosity of the ink at different shear rates, helping to determine the optimal viscosity for printing.
– Adding Thickeners or Thinners: Based on the viscosity results, thickeners or thinners can be added to adjust the ink’s flow properties and achieve the desired rheology.
5. Testing and Adjusting Opacity In addition to rheology, testing and adjusting the opacity of the offset ink is crucial. Here are a few techniques used to assess and enhance the ink’s opacity:
– Opacity Meter: An opacity meter helps measure the amount of light absorbed or scattered by the ink, indicating its opacity. Based on the results, adjustments can be made to improve opacity.
– Increasing Pigment Concentration: If the opacity is not sufficient, increasing the concentration of the bluish green phthalocyanine green pigment may be necessary to achieve the desired results.
FAQs about Formulating Offset Ink with Bluish Green Phthalocyanine Green Pigment 1. Q: How does rheology affect the printing process? – A: Rheology determines the flow and transfer properties of the ink, ensuring smooth printing and preventing issues like ink spattering.
2. Q: What factors influence the opacity of offset ink? – A: Pigment concentration, particle size, and binder selection are key factors that impact the opacity of the ink.
3. Q: How can pigment dispersing techniques improve the quality of offset ink? – A: Proper pigment dispersing techniques ensure uniform dispersion, leading to enhanced color strength and coverage on the substrate.
4. Q: What methods are used to test and adjust rheology? – A: Instruments like Brookfield viscometer help measure viscosity, and thickeners or thinners can be added to adjust flow properties.
5. Q: How can opacity be adjusted in offset ink? – A: Opacity can be improved by increasing the pigment concentration or making adjustments based on opacity meter readings.
In conclusion, formulating offset ink with bluish green phthalocyanine green pigment requires careful consideration of rheology and opacity.

Open Question Answering | Getting dentures for the first time is a big deal as it can be quite an intimidating experience for many. Taking out dentures without proper guidance can cause damage to your gums and mouth, which is why we’ve put together this step-by-step guide on how to take out immediate dentures safely and effectively.
Immediate denture removal is a process that requires effort, patience, and professional advice. Immediate dentures are special types of dentures that are placed in the mouth right after teeth extraction or when all existing dentures have to be removed. Taking out dentures can be a nerve-wracking experience and the fear of denture breakage may lead to complications while taking them out. In this guide, we will provide you with step-by-step instructions on how to take out dentures safely and effectively.
Steps To Taking Out Immediate Dentures There are several steps involved in taking out dentures including preparation, actual denture removal, and aftercare. Before starting the process, make sure that you have all the necessary materials that you need such as a denture bath or container, denture brush, and cleaning solution. Here are the steps:
Preparation Before attempting to take your dentures out, it’s important to make sure that you’re prepared. Make sure that your dentures are loosened and can be removed easily. You should also have a denture bath or container filled with warm water to place the dentures in afterward.
Denture Removal Once your dentures are loosened, you should use both hands to gently remove them from your mouth. Start at one side of the denture and slowly slide it out until it is completely removed from the mouth. Be patient and gentle during the process, as too much force may damage your dentures or cause injury to yourself.
Aftercare Once you’ve successfully taken out your dentures, you should immediately rinse them off with warm water. This will help to remove any food particles or denture adhesives that may be left on the dentures. You should also brush your dentures with a denture brush and cleaning solution to ensure they are properly cleaned before reinsertion.
Conclusion Taking out dentures for the first time can be an intimidating experience, but following these steps can make it easier and safer for you. Remember to always use warm water when removing your dentures and never force them out as this may cause damage or injury. Lastly, don’t forget to clean your dentures with a denture brush and cleaning solution afterward before reinserting them in your mouth.

Open Question Answering | What is a lens clock used for? . In this article we will let you know details of your question. Also we will share with most asked related question by peoples end of this article. Let’s check it out!What is a lens clock used for? A lens clock is a mechanical dial indicator that is used to measure the dioptric power of a lens . It is a specialized version of a spherometer.
Here are some related question people asked in various search engines.
How do you use a lens clock to measure the base curve? How To Measure The Base Curve? The base curve of any lens can be measured with a tool called a radius gauge, also known as a lens clock . A lens clock has three prongs that can measure the curvature of lenses (and other surfaces). When those 3 prongs are place against a flat surface, the gauge should read zero.
What is another name for a lens clock? Lens Measure and Cylinder The lens measure, or lens clock, is used to measure the power in diopters of lens surfaces.How do you use a lens caliper? To measure center thickness, use an external caliper, a caliper with protruding pinchers. To measure edge thickness, a clamping-style caliper will work best. Clamp the caliper onto the thickest location until the pinchers or clamps barely touch both sides of the lens. Read the measurement on the caliper.
How do you adjust the lens on a clock? Hold the lens clock in one hand & gently depress the pins at the top evenly against the metal surface. With the pins depressed, replace the needle with the other hand on the stem at the zero setting. After setting the needle, test the clock by pulling away & the pressing again against the metal surface.What is the best base curve for a lens? To give eyeglass wearers close to the same range of vision, the backside of an optical lens should be close to a 6 base curve . Much flatter or steeper will affect the field of view and result in more head-turning.
How do I figure out my contact lens base curve? Base curve = 0.95 * 34.82 D = 33.07 D and then round up or down to the nearest whole diopter to arrive at the following final base curve to use for a contact lens over-refraction: Base curve = 33.00 D (actual measured base curve is 32.95 D)
Why is spherometer used? Spherometer. A spherometer is a device used primarily for measuring the curvature of objects such as lenses and curved mirrors .
What is the Geneva standard? The Geneva seal in horology (watches), is a certification reserved for wrist watch movements made in the City or Canton of Geneva. Although it is concerned mainly with the finishing and decoration of the watch movement, it is considered a high accolade in the industry. What do you mean by the power of lens? The power of a lens is defined as the reciprocal of the focal length . Lens power is measured in dioptres (D). … Diverging (concave ) lenses have negative focal lengths, so they also have negative power values.
What is minimum thickness of a lens? There is always some minimum substance or thickness to the lens. Typical minimum thickness guidelines for traditional ophthalmic lenses range from a minimum edge thickness of 1 mm to a minimum center thickness of 2 mm.
How do you determine the thickness of glasses lens? If your power is around -2.00, choose 1.56 index, it will be around 3mm. For power around -4.00, choose 1.61 index, it will be around 3 to 4mm. If your power is around -6.00, choose 1.67 index, it will be around 4 to 5mm. How thick are sunglass lenses? 1.5 index lens: Standard. 1.57 index: Thin and light. 1.59 index: Polycarbonate lens. 1.6 index: Super-thin.On what surface a lens clock should be calibrated? A typical lens clock is calibrated to display the power of a crown glass surface , with a refractive index of 1.523.
What is Geneva lens clock? Question: What is a Geneva lens clock? Answer: A device used to determine the base curve of the back surface of a spectacle lens . It is often used clinically to detect plus cylinder spectacle lenses in an individual who is use to minus cylinder lenses.
How do you calibrate a lensometer? Turn on the lensmeter. Turn the eyepiece ring so that the reticule appears in focus. Turn the power wheel into the plus, then slowly decrease the power until the lensmeter target is sharply focused. … If the power wheel does not read zero, re-focus the eyepiece and re-check the calibration. How do I know my base curve? For plus power use the spherical equivalent (SE) and add 4.00 diopters to that. For example, if you have an Rx of + 2.00 sphere, the base curve for the lens will be approximately 6.00. Rx +2.00Sph -> [+2.00 +4.00D] = 6.00BC. Does your eye base curve change? Base curve can also change as you wear a contact lens based on environmental factors like the lens drying out, temperature changes, and exposure to makeup or soaps.
Does base curve affect prescription? The base curve of a lens may affect certain aspects of vision , such as distortion and magnification, and wearers may notice perceptual differences between lenses with different base curves. Consequently, some practitioners may specify “match base curves” on a new prescription.
Does base curve have to be exact? The base curve number would be a number between 8.0 and 10.0 millimeters and would be more precise because these lenses need to fit just right. Now that most contact lenses dispensed are soft lenses, this measurement doesn’t need to be quite as precise.
What does BC mean in contacts? BC – Base Curve (usually a number between 8 and 10) DIA – Diameter (usually a number between 13 and 15) Brand – The brand/type of contact lens that your doctor has fitted you for.
How do I convert my glasses prescription to contacts? No – you cannot directly convert a glasses prescription to a contact lens prescription. Equally, you cannot convert a contact lens prescription to a glasses prescription.
What is Sparrow Metre? A spherometer is an instrument used for the precise measurement of the radius of curvature of a sphere or a curved surface. Originally, these instruments were primarily used by opticians to measure the curvature of the surface of a lens.
Why does a Sperometer have three legs? Spherometers have three legs that form an equilateral triangle. Recall from geometry that three points determine a plane, so the three legs will always touch the glass . … In this way a spherometer can measure both a positively or negatively curved surface to high accuracy.
Does spherometer have zero error? A spherometer does not have a zero error because the result obtained is by taking the difference between the final and initial reading.
Does AP HAVE Geneva seals? The movement is equipped with the Caliber 5100 that has obtained the Geneva Seal. It makes 28,800 beats per hour, has a power reserve of 60 hours, and is water resistant up to 150 meters. Compared to the Royal Oak, it is sturdier and gives a more modern impression.
Which lens has no power at the axis and full power 90 degrees away from the axis? Spherical lenses correct vision for myopia and hyperopia but do not correct vision for astigmatism. A cylindrical surface is one that has straight horizontal sides and round vertical sides, like the shape of a can. Cylindrical lens surfaces have no power in one direction and the maximum power 90 degrees away.
Where is Geneva situated? Geneva, French Genève, German Genf, Italian Ginevra, city, capital of Genève canton, in the far southwestern corner of Switzerland that juts into France.
WHAT IS lens equation? The lens equation allows us to understand geometric optic in a quantitative way where 1/d0 + 1/di = 1/f . The lens equation essentially states that the magnification of the object = – distance of the image over distance of the object. … Remember that the focus is on the proper side of a lens when it’s converging.
What is optic Centre of a lens? a) Optical centre is the point lying on the principal axis of a lens through which light passes through without undergoing any deviation .
What is meant by power of lens write its SI unit a student uses a lens of focal length 40 cm? Answer: Power of lens is known as the inverse of the focal length of the lens measured in meter (m). Power of lense = 1/ focal length in meter. The lense used is a convex lens because the focal length is a positive value.
What is an aspheric lens in glasses? An aspheric lens or asphere (often labeled ASPH on eye pieces) is a lens whose surface profiles are not portions of a sphere or cylinder . … Aspheric eyeglass lenses allow for crisper vision than standard “best form” lenses, mostly when looking in other directions than the lens optical center.
Are glasses for astigmatism thick? This will ultimately determine how thick your lenses will be. Simply put, the higher the prescription, the thicker the lens . In addition, prescriptions with moderate to high astigmatism correction often result in thicker lenses.
What is the thinnest lens for high prescriptions? 1.74 index lenses are the thinnest lenses for high prescriptions available. These ultra-light, ultra-sleek lenses are the thinnest kind developed yet, and accommodate the highest prescriptions possible.Is blue light blocking worth it? ROSENFIELD: Both of the studies actually found that the blue-blocking filters have no effect, no significant effect on digital eye strain . This didn’t really come as a major surprise to us because there really is no mechanism whereby the blue light should be causing digital eye strain.
What part of the eye makes the lens thicker or thinner? The ciliary muscle is a circular ring of muscle that attaches all the way around the lens. This ciliary muscle can change the shape of the crystalline lens by stretching it at the edges.Do thick lenses look bad? While thick lenses are not at all harmful to your vision , they do involve several aesthetic concerns that affect your eye-wear. … Thick lenses may distort the appearance of your eyes and face. Thick lenses can add a lot of weight to your eye-wear frame. Strong myopia prescriptions can lead to exceptionally thick lens …
Is it worth paying for thin lenses? Thinner lenses will look better . They’ll be easier to have the lens edges hidden within the frame of the glasses. They’ll look less noticeable when people look at your glasses. And, they’ll feel better.What’s the difference between 1.67 and 1.74 high index lenses? 1.74 high index lenses are thinner and lighter than 1.67 high index lenses . 1.67 high index lenses are much less costly compared to 1.74. … 1.74 high index lenses are better for those looking for the thinnest lens possible; generally, people with extremely high prescriptions choose this option.
Is anti reflective coating worth it? AR coatings virtually eliminate all reflections from the front and back surfaces of your lenses. Without bothersome reflections, more light is able to pass through your lenses which optimizes your vision. … Most people agree that anti-reflective coatings on their glasses are definitely worth the added cost .
What is another name for a lens clock? Lens Measure and Cylinder The lens measure, or lens clock, is used to measure the power in diopters of lens surfaces. |

Open Question Answering | As a business person, I often look at potters with a mixture of profound respect and utter bemusement. How can anyone spend his or her life with their hands in mud, work for a minuscule effective hourly pay rate and then have the nerve to be happy?
In an article published by Studio Potter in 1990, American potter Warren MacKenzie gave me some insight into why professional potters do what they do. He said:
“The challenge is to do the thing you have to do because you’re in love with it and can’t do anything else. Not because you want to become rich or famous but because you will be unhappy if you can’t do it.”
Australia potter Paul Davis puts it more bluntly:
“While there is a difference between being a ‘maker’ and a business person, you still have to make enough to live on, even if making money is not the ‘driving’ motivation.”
This article is for people who yearn to take their love of the ceramic arts to the next level by becoming a full-time professional. I’ll try to outline some of the business considerations that can make the transition easier and more likely to be successful.

“Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure nineteen six, result: happiness.
Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure twenty pound and six, result: misery.” The key to keeping your cash flow positive is to have a plan. It need not be a full business plan, but sitting down with a piece of paper and writing down the answers to the following questions can be helpful:
What am I going to sell Who am I going to sell it to How am I going to find these buyers How can I pay myself There are lots of other things you should consider, and maybe we’ll get to them later, but these four questions need solid answers before you begin. Let’s look at each in more detail.
What am I going to sell – or Range Planning There are two ways people approach the business of selling – and yes, I said those two awful words: selling and
! While I know you are planning to be a full-time ceramic artist, if selling your work is going to pay the rent and put food on your table, then like it or not, you are in business. business The first approach is to look for a market niche that is not being addressed by anyone else and design a product that fills that need. It’s the build a better mousetrap approach – because even though mousetraps don’t inspire you, you know mousetraps will sell.
The second way is to look at what you love creating and find enough people who also love what you make, and who are prepared to pay you for it.
This “go with what you are good at” strategy is a more normal artistic approach that can be the gateway to fame and riches on the one hand (Picasso); or a lifetime of poverty and suffering (Van Gough), on the other.
Whichever way you choose, here are a few fundamental things that have proven to be useful time and time again.
Choose to be the best at one particular thing and focus your efforts. Try not to be everything to everyone. Optimise the number of different things you sell, so that while you have a balanced range of items for people to buy, there are not too many variations within that range. So three sizes of vases rather than six slightly different sizes. That way, you can plan the production and marketing of those items with quality, cost-control and efficiency in mind. Have items in your range at various price-points. That way, people who like your work can buy something regardless of how much money they have. However, don’t be afraid to have some items at a much higher price, because there are always people who are willing to pay well for something they like. Who is going to buy my work – or Market Segmentation If you are thinking of turning professional, you will have probably already sold your work to people other than family. So you already have some idea of the kinds of people who already like your work, what they are prepared to pay, and where they are likely to buy it.
Here is some simple homework. Sit down and create a buyer profile for each type of person who will be an ongoing supporter of your professional work. Give each of them a descriptive name that defines who they are.
For example “Quirky grandmother ”, “Retired professional male ”, “Lunching lady with taste ”, “Young millennial just married ” and so on. Think about why these people bought your work. What problem did it solve for them (a gift, home decoration, a statement about their excellent taste, the colour matched their curtains, and so on)?
Then write a brief narrative that describes how they might have found and bought your work; something like:
“Quirky grandmothe r was looking for a present for her daughter-in-law. Everything she saw in the mall was just too ordinary until she saw my work in the popup shop I’d set up in my local mall. She went straight to my curious cow mugs and picked up the most colourful one. I knew I had a sale when her face opened up with a beaming smile. She bought one for her daughter-in-law and two for herself.”
“Retired professional male always attends my openings looking for items to add to his collection. While his taste is eclectic, he looks for things that are not only well made and artistically rounded, he looks for works that reflect his interest in art history. He particularly likes the way my works take an established form and gives it a little twist that only the knowledgeable can fully appreciate. He’ll try to negotiate the price, but he will pay well if he likes something.”
Each of these little narratives contains insights into where people buy; what is driving them to purchase and why they choose what they choose to buy. You’ll find it surprising how much you already know about your buyers if you take a few moments to write down their story in this way.
Once you know these sorts of things, planning what to produce, where to sell, and how to market your works becomes a bit easier. Moreover, you’ll get better with practice, especially if you engage with your buyers either person-to-person or on social media.
How am I going to find buyers Open a store Studio open days Online – website, Etsy, Facebook, Instagram, eBay Galleries Exhibition Commissions Direct to local stores Direct sales at fairs, art markets and farmers markets How can I pay myself Your payment is what is leftover from your sales revenues after you pay for all your expenses.
These expenses include things like:
Sales Commissions Packaging & transportation costs for sale items Raw materials – clay, glazes Studio rental Equipment costs Utilities like power water and telephones/internet Employees and staff Taxation, council fees etc Accounting, legal and bank fees Marketing, website and sales materials Car and transport expenses The occasional coffee and maybe lunch every so often It is important that you do a basic budget where you identify all the costs in your business so you won’t be surprised when bills come in and the payment from the gallery is still a month or two away.
Remember that getting your pricing right, producing the right volumes of work AND controlling your costs are all keys to making your business cash positive, so there is money over to pay yourself a wage.
Most small businesses don’t make a profit for the first year or two, so you should plan how you are going to survive until your business takes off. There are many options to consider:
Have a supportive partner who works Use savings, lump-sum termination payments or other nest eggs Sell your house in the city and move where it’s cheaper to live and use any profit to fund your new business Work part-time Teach pottery Develop a cash flow sideline; some potters pay the bills with a custom ceramic tile business for example Open a coffee shop in your studio With every startup business, it is wise to think long and hard about two things.
How will you know when you have succeeded and what will you do when you have? What will it take for you to know that a pottery business you have tried to build, is not working and you need to move on? Both of these things are uncomfortable to contemplate because anyone thinking about making a career from selling their work has to be optimistic.
“Success has no limits”. “Failure is not a possibility”.
You might say these things to yourself, but going into business with your eyes open and mind attuned to thinking about business realities is actually a very sound idea.

Open Question Answering | Using AI and Machine Learning To Create Software I started implementing OpenAI into Magic. It took me no more than two days to teach it Hyperlambda to an accuracy of 90%. What does this mean for our industry? Join the DZone community and get the full member experience.
Join For FreeI've just released a new version of Aista Magic Cloud that allows you to use natural language to create Hyperlambda backend code, and its accuracy is at 90% after only two days of experimenting with the thing. To appreciate this feat, I suggest you watch the following YouTube video.
The way it works is that you start out with a base model. I found Curie to give me the best result. Then you supply OpenAI's API with a bunch of questions and answers. This is the most critical part since the better your questions and answers are, the better your end result will become. I found that extrapolating my questions with variables allowed the model to be able to recognize variables, and substitute these, composing larger blocks of code from smaller blocks more naturally. An example of the above could be, for instance, the following questions, with code snippets solving your questions.
Insert company_name and org_no
into mycustomers
table in my databasecrm
Insert first_name
andlast_name
into mycontacts
table in mycustomers
database Insert description into status
table in mycms
database Etc ... The above might seem ridiculous for a human being, but by extrapolating similar questions such as the above, OpenAI is able to identify variables that it later can find in your natural text as you ask it to solve specific problems. You can even automate the creation of such learning entities by using scripts. I have even seen people using OpenAI and ChatGPT itself to create training material for OpenAI and ChatGPT. Below is an example of a sentence I asked it after training it.
Create a Hyperlambda endpoint that inserts name, address and zip into my customers table in my crm database
For the above sentence, it produced the following result:
.arguments name:string address:string city:string country:stringdata.connect:magic data.create table:customers values name:x:@.arguments/*/name address:x:@.arguments/*/address city:x:@.arguments/*/city country:x:@.arguments/*/countryresponse.status.set:201return result:Insert was a success
The above code is 90% correct. If I had done a better job extrapolating my training data, it would probably perform 100% accurately. Notice how it inserts city and country instead of zip code.
Code Is a Classification Problem Another thing I realized after playing around with my training material is that code is a classification problem — at least, this is true for Hyperlambda and OpenAI. This allowed me to use less resource-intensive engines that are less expensive and faster. For instance, I used Curie with a lot of success, which is smaller, less expensive, and faster than DaVinci. This allowed me to submit my training data to OpenAI for roughly $1 and ask questions for roughly 0.3 cents. I tried using Ada, but she failed miserably. I never tried Babbage, though, which might have worked, and is even less expensive than Curie.
However, the point is that there are a finite amount of correct solutions within a programming language for a specific problem. For Hyperlambda, this is especially true since it's a super high-level programming level, more like a "5th generation programming language" intended to orchestrate data and not for algorithm-intensive tasks. This allowed me to use classification logic as I trained my model, which of course, produces much more accurate results.
Another thing I noticed was that by providing multiple questions to the same snippet of code, I was able to drastically increase the quality, which again is because that code is a classification problem. I had, in total, 691 training snippets; however, there were probably only some 250 different code snippets, implying the same code snippet was reused multiple times for different questions. One thing I intend to change in future versions is to extrapolate much more, allowing Curie to recognize variables more easily in my natural text. Currently, I've got roughly 90% correctly working code. However, due to Hyperlambda's simple syntax, I am certain that I can bring these numbers easily up to 99% accuracy with less than 1,000 training snippets.
All in all, the entire process of implementing this into Magic took me two days, with a couple of days thinking about the problems first. If you want to play around with the thing, you can register for a free 90 days cloudlet below and create your own OpenAI API key.

Open Question Answering | because of the different arrangement of functional groups around the asymmetric carbon ; all of these monosaccharides have more than one asymmetric carbon (Figure3.2.Why do fruit trees blossom?
fruit tree blossom identification .Contents Monosaccharides. Three common sugars share the same molecular formula: C6H12O6 . Because of their six carbon atoms, each is a hexose.
Fructose is a structural isomer of glucose and galactose , meaning that its atoms are actually bonded together in a different order. Glucose and galactose are stereoisomers (have atoms bonded together in the same order, but differently arranged in space). They differ in their stereochemistry at carbon 4.
Although glucose, galactose, and fructose all have the same chemical formula (C6H12O6), they differ structurally and stereochemically. This makes them different molecules despite sharing the same atoms in the same proportions, and they are all isomers of one another, or isomeric monosaccharides.
Glucose is sourced by breaking down disaccharides or polysaccharides, which are larger sugar molecules. Meanwhile, fructose is found in its simplest form in fruits and some vegetables like beets, corn and potatoes.” Like all sugars, both glucose and fructose are carbohydrates . But not all carbs are created equal!
Difference between Glucose and Fructose GLUCOSE FRUCTOSE Relies on hexokinase/ glucokinase for initiating metabolism Relies on fructokinase for initiating metabolism It is an aldohexose It is a ketohexose Forms a pyranose ring structure Forms a furan ring structure
Glucose is an aldehyde and whereas fructose is a ketone and has following structure according to Fischer projections. Another difference is the number of chiral carbons in glucose is 4 whereas in fructose is 3. Also the number of 2° alcohol is 4 for glucose and 3 for fructose.Answer: Fructose has a ketone functional group . Glucose has aldehyde and hydroxy functional group.
So, glucose and fructose have the same empirical formula too: CH2O . The reason that glucose and fructose have the same molecular and empirical formulas despite being different compounds is that they are isomers.
Glucose and Fructose have the same formula C6H12O6 .
These sugars are structural isomers of one another, with the difference being that glucose contains an aldehyde functional group whereas fructose contains a ketone functional group . … Glucose is six membered ring, while fructose is a five-membered ring. Both rings contain an oxygen atom.
Ans: Glucose is a 6 membered ring, whereas the Fructose is 5 membered ring . Glucose produces less fat compared to fructose in our body. Glucose is an aldohexose, whereas the Fructose is a Ketohexose. 3.
Unlike glucose, which is directly metabolized widely in the body, fructose is almost entirely metabolized in the liver in humans, where it is directed toward replenishment of liver glycogen and triglyceride synthesis. Under one percent of ingested fructose is directly converted to plasma triglyceride.
As reviewed in detail below, intestinal fructose and glucose absorption are also quite different, because glucose transport is an energy-requiring process mediated by the sodium-glucose co-transporter 1 (SLGT1), whereas fructose moves through a facilitated passive transport mediated by GLUT5 [14].
In glycolysis, glucose is converted to glucose 6-phosphate so it can not diffuse out of the membrane . Then it is converted to fructose 6-phosphate.
So, from this it is clear that we can distinguish between the fructose and glucose by Seliwanoff’s test because fructose is a ketose and glucose is an aldose. Hence option (d) is correct.
How many molecules of water are represented by the formula H2O? … Do the glucose and fructose fit easily together to form a sucrose molecule? Only once H2O is removed . The -OH and the -H ends that are removed can also fit together with each other to form a molecule .
Fructose reacts to give a deep red cherry colour whereas Glucose reacts slightly to produce a faint pink colour . Taste tests also work. Fructose is about 2.3 times sweeter tasting than glucose, and the tongue is a very good sweet-sensor.Glucose and fructose are structural isomers : have the same chemical formula but have different arrangement of atoms. … Glucose forms pyranose ring structure (makes six membered ring), whereas Fructose forms furan ring structure(makes five membered ring). You just studied 27 terms!
Glucose can be differentiated from fructose by performing Seliwanoff test . Fructose gives positive test with Seliwanoff reagent, where as glucose gives negative test with Seliwanoff reagent.
The Empirical formula is the lowest whole number ratio of the elements in a compound. In (section 2.10), we discovered that benzene and acetylene have the same mass percent composition, and thus it is logical that they have the same ratio of elements to each other, that is, they have the same empirical formula.
Although glucose, galactose, and fructose all have the same chemical formula (C6H12O6), they differ structurally and chemically (and are known as isomers) because of the different arrangement of functional groups around the asymmetric carbon ; all of these monosaccharides have more than one asymmetric carbon (Figure3.2.
Many compounds may have the same empirical formula. For example, formaldehyde, each molecule of which consists of one carbon atom, two hydrogen atoms, and one oxygen atom, has the molecular formula CH2O, which is identical to the empirical formula of glucose.
– Fructose which is mainly found in fruits, and nuts as the monosaccharide unit of sucrose, is a levorotatory sugar as it rotates the plane polarized light to the left . Glucose is a dextrorotatory sugar.
When sugars crystallize, intermolecular hydrogen bonds form between the sugar molecules and, therefore, the hydroxyl groups are unavailable to hydrogen bond with water. … Fructose is more soluble than glucose and hard to crystallize because it is more hygroscopic and holds onto water stronger .
Therefore, glucose is considered as an aldohexose. … – However, Benedict’s solution cannot be used to distinguish between glucose and fructose because it is used to differentiate between reducing and non-reducing sugars , and Fructose and glucose are both reducing sugars.
How do fructose and glucose absorption and uptake differ? … Fructose absorption depends on a concentration gradient while glucose absorption requires active transport .
Fructose and glucose metabolism converge at the level of the triose-phosphates (Figure 1). The major concerns in fructose metabolism — synthesis of glycerol-3-phosphate (glycerol-3-P) for triglyceride synthesis, generation of acetyl-CoA for the TCA cycle and de novo lipogenesis (DNL) — derive from these intermediates. |

Question 3. Water cycle is a natural change. Classify it as a. (i) physical or chemical change (ii) a reversible or irreversible change. Also, justify your answer. Answer: During water cycle, the physical form of water changes and no new substance is formed hence it is a physical change. Water can be changed into its different form hence it is a reversible change.
Question 4. How can we say that burning of candle is a chemical change and glowing of bulb is a physical change? Answer: During the burning of candle, new substances are formed hence it is a chemical change. During the glowing of bulb, no new substance is formed hence it is a physical change.
Value Based Questions
Madam Emani, a very sincere and dedicated teacher, had a very honest, considerate and understanding approach towards the problems of her students. This helped her to make her students improve their performance and become better persons.

III. Answer these questions.
Question 1. What is a slow change? Explain with the help of an example. Answer: The time required for some changes is too much. Such changes are called slow changes. For example, formation of curd from milk takes at least four to five hours and hence it can be termed as a slow change.
Question 2. What is a physical change? Give an example of physical change. Answer: A change in which no new substance is formed is called physical change. Most of the physical changes are reversible. For example, during melting of ice, no new substance is formed rather just the physical state of water changes.
Question 3. What is a chemical change? Give an example of chemical change. Answer: A change in which no new substance is formed is called chemical change. Most of the chemical changes are irreversible. Some chemical changes can be reversed by using chemical meAnswer:For example, during burning of paper, the paper turns into ash and carbon which cannot be changed back to paper.
Question 4. What is the difference between desirable and undesirable change? Answer: When a change is beneficial for us, it is called a desirable change, but when a change is harmful for us, it is called an undesirable change.
Question 5. What is a chemical reaction? Answer: A change during which a new substance is formed is called a chemical change or chemical reaction.
Question 6. Moulding of clay is a physical change but baking a clay pot is a chemical change. How? Answer: When clay is moulded into a particular shape, no new substance is formed and it can be remoulded into another shape or into a lump of clay. But when a clay pot is baked, a new substance is formed which cannot be changed back into clay. Hence, moulding of clay is a physical change, while baking of a clay pot is a chemical change.
IV. Projects

Question 2. Make a flow chart of ice changing into water which changes into vapour and finally back to ice. Mark the steps where heat is absorbed and evolved. Answer: Do it yourself. |
Open Question Answering | IPL 2023: Unlocking Mumbai Indians' Playoff Potential - Here's What MI Must Do The Mumbai Indians are undeniably the most successful team in the Indian Premier League (IPL), with a triumphant history of winning five titles. Their present performance places them at third place in the IPL 2023 table. After winning two consecutive matches against GT and RCB, the Mumbai Indians are now one of the strongest contenders in the tournament with high chances of qualifying for the IPL playoffs. Their captain, Rohit Sharma, leads the team, aiming to maintain their winning momentum and secure further success in the upcoming games.
Currently, the Mumbai Indians have won seven out of their 12 matches, and with 14 points, they are ranked at number three on the points table. However, winning against Lucknow Super Giants in the upcoming match is crucial for both teams to secure a place in the top four. In case LSG wins, they may surpass Chennai Super Kings (CSK) to achieve the second spot with a net run rate of 0.309, pushing Mumbai Indians to rank fourth. Thus, at least four teams are vying for this position.
Winning the next two matches against LSG and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) is crucial for the Mumbai Indians to qualify and even secure a spot in the top two positions, with 18 points. Even if they lose one of the matches, they will still have 16 points, providing them with a decent chance of qualifying due to a heavily crowded leaderboard.
However, if the Mumbai Indians fail to win either match, their fate lies in the hands of the other teams' performances and the mathematics of probability. Failing to win both matches, they are also at risk of ending up in the bottom two positions of the top four, adding an extra layer of pressure.

Open Question Answering | Ian Berger, JDIRA Analyst Question: Can you put funds into a Roth IRA for a 14 year old using money you have paid the child for doing chores?
Client was told all he needed to do was keep a record of what was paid by to the child.
I have always enjoyed your presentations.
Thank you,
Cathy
Answer: Hi Cathy,
This a common question, but unfortunately there isn’t much guidance from the IRS on this issue. We do know that parents can open up IRAs (including Roth IRAs) for their children. However, the child mut have enough of his own “compensation” to support the IRA contribution. Here, “compensation” means taxable income, and that’s the problem.
Payments a parent makes to a child for common household chores are usually not taxable income. In that case, they can’t be used for an IRA contribution. Money that a child receives from a third-party, such as babysitting or mowing loans for neighbors, may be a different story. Those amounts may count, as long as the child claims those amounts on a tax return. Your child would want to retain good documentation of any earnings.
Question: I retired in 2011 and rolled my Thrift Savings Plan into an IRA. Currently I must take a RMD every year from that IRA. If I roll over some stock from my IRA into my Roth IRA, will that qualify as a RMD (required minimum distribution) or would I have to also withdraw cash to meet the RMD requirements?
Answer: You don’t necessarily have to withdraw cash out of your traditional IRA to satisfy the RMD rules; you can also take stock out. However, no RMD (cash or stock) can ever be rolled over, and the first payments out of the traditional IRA in any year are considered to be RMDs. So, if you want to convert all or some of your traditional IRA to a Roth IRA, you will need to first take the RMD (in cash or stock) and then convert the remainder.

Suicide rates are high among elderly individuals experiencing socioeconomic insecurity. Socioeconomic security is of critical importance for elderly individuals and directly affects mental health, including suicidal behavior. Thus, we investigated the relationship between socioeconomic status and suicidal ideation in elderly individuals.
Method:
We conducted a cross-sectional study using data on 58,590 individuals 65 years of age or older from the Korean Community Health Survey 2013. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify relationships between socioeconomic factors (food insecurity, household income, and living arrangement) and suicidal ideation in the elderly population.
Results:
The study included 58,590 participants (24,246 males and 34,344 females). Of those, 2,847 males and 6,418 females experienced suicidal ideation. Participants with food insecure were more likely to experience suicidal ideation than were those who were food secure (males: OR = 1.60; 95% CI, 1.34–1.90; females: OR = 1.54; 95% CI, 1.38–1.72). We found a similar pattern among participants with a low household income and those living alone. Additionally, male and female subjects who were food insecure and living alone or food insecure and had a low household income showed a marked increase in suicidal ideation.
Conclusion:
Our findings suggest that low socioeconomic status is associated with an increased risk of suicidal ideation among the elderly. Furthermore, intervention programs that address the prevalence of elderly suicide, particularly among those who are socioeconomically disadvantaged, are needed.
The junction resistance control of conducting networks is a crucial factor for high performance of the network-structured conducting film. Here, we show that silver nanowire (AgNW) networks can be stabilized by using single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) which were functionalized with 2-ureido-4[1H]pyrimidinone (UHP) moieties. UHP-modified SWCNTs allowed us to fabricate AgNW suspension containing SWCNTs without adding additional dispersant molecules. The stabilization of AgNW networks was achieved by minimizing the joule heating at the NW-NW junction assisted by in-situ interconnection with the work function modulated SWCNTs. We propose that the electrical transportation pathway was modulated by the SWCNTs through the SWCNT-AgNW junctions, which results in a relatively lower junction resistance than the NW-NW junction in the network film.
We investigated the pressure dependence of the inductive coupled plasma (ICP) oxidation on the electrical characteristics of the thin oxide films. Activation energies and electron temperatures with different pressures were estimated. To demonstrate the pressure effect on the plasma oxide quality, simple N type metal-oxide-semiconductor (NMOS) transistors were fabricated and investigated in a few electrical properties. At higher pressure than 200mTorr, plasma oxide has a slightly higher on-current and a lower interfacial trap density. The on-current gain seems to be related to the field mobility increase and the lower defective interface to the electron temperature during oxidation.
To investigate the annual rate of tuberculosis (TB) infection among newly employed nurses using both tuberculin skin test (TST) and QuantiFERON-TB Gold (QFT-G; Cellestis Limited) assay.
Design.
A prospective cohort study involving newly employed nurses.
Setting.
A tertiary care university hospital in South Korea.
Methods.
All participants (n = 196) were tested with the TST and QFT-G assay at baseline. After 1 year, the TST and QFT-G assay were reperformed for subjects who had negative TST results at baseline and for all subjects, respectively.
Results.
The baseline TST and QFT-G assays were positive for 101 subjects (51.5%) and 28 subjects (14.3%), respectively; 22 subjects (11.2%) had positive results of both tests. Although the overall between-test agreement was 54.9% (κ = 0.151 [95% confidence interval, 0.047–0.245]), agreement improved to 78.5% (κ = 0.462 [95% confidence interval, 0.007–0.917]) for subjects who had not received bacille Calmette-Guérin vaccination. After 1 year, the TST yielded positive results for 16 (21.3%) of 75 nurses with negative baseline results, and the QFT-G assay yielded positive results for 21 (14.4%) of 146 subjects with negative baseline Results. Collectively, 5 subjects (3.0%) experienced conversion to positive results with both tests, and 32 subjects (18.9%) experienced conversion to positive results with one of the tests. Neither the employing hospital department nor exposure to patients with TB affected test conversion status.
Conclusions.
The poor overall agreement between TST and QFT-G results may have been caused by the confounding effect of bacille Calmette-Guérin vaccination. The annual risk of TB infection among newly employed nurses was at least 3% on the basis of results of both the TST and QFT-G test. Stricter preventive strategies against TB spread should be implemented in our hospital.
To identify antibiotic resistance trends and risk factors for resistance of Serratia species to third-generation cephalosporins.
Design:
Retrospective survey of medical records.
Setting:
A 2,200-bed, tertiary-care hospital.
Patients:
One hundred twenty-two patients with Serratia bacteremia between January 1991 and June 2001.
Methods:
Infectious disease physicians collected data from medical records regarding patient demographics, underlying disease or condition, portal of entry, microorganism, antibiogram, complications, antibiotics received, and outcome.
Results:
Among 122 Serratia isolates, 117 (95.9%) were Serratia marcescens and 110 (90.2%) were of nosocomial origin. During the study period, the 122 isolates showed a high rate of resistance to third-generation cephalosporins (45.9%) and extended-spectrum penicillins (56.6%). The resistance rate to ciprofloxacin was 32.0%. The resistance rate to third-generation cephalosporins increased from 31.7% for 1991 to 1995 to 54.9% for 1996 to 1998 and 50.0% for 1999 to 2001. In the multivariate analysis, prior use of a second-generation cephalosporin (adjusted odds ratio [OR], 5.90; 95% confidence interval [CI95], 1.41 to 24.6; P = .015) or a third-generation cephalosporin (OR, 3.26; CI95, 1.20 to 8.87; P = .020) was a strong independent risk factor for resistance to third-generation cephalosporins. The overall case-fatality rate was 25.4% (Serratia bacteremia-related case-fatality rate, 13.1%).
Conclusion:
Prior use of a second- or third-generation cephalosporin was the most important risk factor for bacteremia with Serratia resistant to third-generation cephalosporins, suggesting the need for antibiotic control. The potential role of patient-to-patient spread could not be fully evaluated in this retrospective study.

Open Question Answering | What Does Operating Margin Mean? Operating margin is a key financial metric that shows the profitability and efficiency of a company’s core operations. It measures how well the company handles costs and makes money through its primary business activities. To calculate it, subtract all direct and indirect operating expenses from total revenue. This gives us the company’s operating income or EBIT. Divide this number by total revenue for the operating margin expressed as a percentage.
A high margin suggests the company controls costs and maximizes profits. A low margin shows inefficiency or difficulty making profits from operations. Note: operating margin doesn’t consider non-operating income/expenses like interest income, interest expense, taxes, or one-time charges.
Pro Tip: Track changes in a company’s operating margin to assess its financial health and performance. Increasing margins may show improved efficiency or pricing power. Declining margins may mean cost control issues or competitive pressures.Understanding Operating Margin To understand operating margin, delve into the definition and importance of this key accounting measure. This section focuses on the definition of operating margin, as well as the significance it holds in accounting. Explore how operating margin serves as a vital tool in assessing a company’s profitability and efficiency.
Definition of Operating Margin Operating Margin is a vital financial metric. It shows the profitability of a company’s main activities. It’s expressed as a percentage of revenue before taxes and interest costs are subtracted. Here’s the breakdown:
Measurement Formula Operating Margin (%) (Operating Income / Revenue) x 100
Operating Income is profit from primary activities, without non-operating income like investments or one-time gains/losses. Revenue is the total amount from sales of goods/services.
This metric helps investors and analysts understand how well a company manages costs and makes profits from its core operations. A higher Operating Margin implies better cost control and pricing power. It suggests a better business model.
Pro Tip: Analyzing a company’s financial health? Compare its Operating Margin with peers in its industry. This gives a clearer picture of its profitability and operational efficiency. Importance of Operating Margin in Accounting Operating margin is a key accounting metric that shows a company’s profitability and efficiency. It reveals the percentage of revenue left after deducting operating costs. High margins show great operational performance and cost control. This metric is essential for investors and lenders, helping them determine if a company can make money from its activities.
Analyzing operating margin helps stakeholders make wise decisions when it comes to investments or loans. A higher margin suggests the company is making the needed income to cover its expenses and give returns to shareholders. It also shows that management is controlling costs and making profits.
To get more insights, stakeholders should review historical trends in operating margins. They should compare past numbers to present figures and see if the company is going up or down. For instance, a decrease may indicate more competition or mismanagement within the organization.
Apple Inc. is an example of the importance of operating margins. In 1997, when Steve Jobs was hired as CEO, Apple was struggling financially. However, Jobs managed to streamline operations and create profitable products with high margins. By 2004, Apple had an incredible operating margin of 11%. What a turnaround!Calculating Operating Margin To calculate operating margin in accounting, use the formula for operating margin and an example calculation. The formula for operating margin shows the profitability of a company, while an example calculation provides a practical illustration. Understanding these two sub-sections will help you grasp the concept of operating margin in accounting.
Formula for Operating Margin Operating margin is a key indicator of business profitability and efficiency. It’s calculated by dividing operating income by net sales and multiplying the result by 100. Operating income is money earned from core business operations, while net sales is total revenue from selling goods or services after deductions.
To understand better, look at this example:
Net Sales Operating Income Operating Margin $500,000 $200,000 40%
In this case, a company with $500,000 in net sales and $200,000 in operating income would have an operating margin of 40%. That means 40% of each dollar in sales contributes to the company’s operating profit.
Knowing how to measure operating margin helps businesses assess their financial health and compare it to industry standards. A higher margin means better profitability and cost management. But a lower margin may point to inefficiencies or pricing issues.
By analyzing operating margin regularly, companies can discover areas for improvement. This helps them adjust strategies and maximize performance.
Don’t miss out on the power of operating margin analysis! Keep track of your business’s profitability and stay ahead of the competition. Start crunching those numbers and unlock new opportunities for growth!
Example Calculation Let’s explore an example to understand operating margin calculation. Say, XYZ Corp. We’ll analyze its performance using real data. Here’s how it looks like:
Revenue $500,000 Cost of Goods Sold $300,000 Operating Expenses $100,000 Depreciation and Amortization $50,000 Interest Expense $10,000
Now for the formula:
Operating Margin = (Revenue – Cost of Goods Sold – Operating Expenses – Depreciation and Amortization – Interest Expense) / Revenue
For XYZ Corp:
Operating Margin = ($500,000 – $300,000 – $100,000 – $50,000 – $10,000) / $500,000
Result: 8% operating margin .
Analyzing revenue and expenses helps businesses make wise decisions to remain profitable. I once heard an incredible story about an entrepreneur. She used operating margin calculations to reverse her failing business. Her margin was at -5%, which she eventually raised to 12%. This saved her company and opened up options for expansion.
Operating margin isn’t just a task. It’s a powerful tool to assess business performance. It gives decision-makers the insight they need to overcome obstacles and seize growth opportunities.
Interpreting Operating Margin To better understand how to interpret operating margin, delve into benchmarking operating margin and factors affecting it.

Company Operating Margin (%) Company A 12% Company B 10% Company C 14% Company D 8% Company E 11%
We can use this data to better understand each company’s financial health. For example, Company C is doing better than its peers with an operating margin of 14% . Company D’s lower margin of 8% shows potential inefficiency.
Benchmarking your operating margin against competitors gives you more information about how your business is doing. You can use this info to make better decisions and become more profitable.

Open Question Answering | DEAR DR. ROACH: I am an 80-year-old female in good health except for a diagnosis of osteopenia. My primary care doctor has prescribed medication for my osteopenia. I have periodontal disease and have been advised by my periodontal specialist not to take medication for osteopenia due to deterioration of the jawbone. I think I am in a lose-lose situation. I spoke to my internal medicine doctor, and he said he was concerned about a hip fracture if I don’t take the osteopenia medication. I don’t want to take a chance on the jaw deteriorating. Please give me your opinion on the best course of action. — G.M.
ANSWER: Osteopenia, also called low bone density, is a risk factor for osteoporosis. The risk of developing a fracture depends on a person’s age and sex, height and weight, results of their bone density test and presence of certain other medical risk factors, including previous fracture, use of glucocorticoid drugs like prednisone, smoking and rheumatoid arthritis. Fracture risk is commonly estimated by the FRAX tool (www.sheffield.ac.uk/FRAX/). If the estimated hip fracture risk is 3 percent, or the combined risk of any fracture is 20 percent, then medication treatment is usually recommended. Getting your FRAX result is a critical number to have to help make an informed decision. You will need the exact results of your bone density.
If your risk is not so high that medication is recommended, there are many things you can do to help your bone density. These include adequate dietary calcium, supplemental vitamin D, regular exercise — especially weight-bearing and strengthening exercises — and avoiding smoking and excess alcohol. A home evaluation to reduce fall risk may be of benefit.
If your fracture risk is already higher than the above threshold, medication would normally be prescribed in addition to lifestyle treatments. Antiresorptive treatments, such as alendronate (Fosamax) or other bisphosphonate drugs, do increase the risk for jawbone damage, and given what your periodontist has recommended, I would avoid not only these drugs but also denosumab (Prolia), which works similarly by decreasing bone resorption. Although I am not an expert, I would consider treatment with a medicine like teriparatide, which has been used as a treatment for people with jaw osteonecrosis. This medicine works by stimulating bone growth and has a good safety record.

DEAR DR. ROACH: The blood bank nurses have a hard time finding a vein in either arm almost every time I go to donate platelets. I drink a lot of water the day before and 16 ounces the day of, but no luck. Is there anything I can do to make my veins easier to find? Does weight have anything to do with it? — N.K.
ANSWER: In addition to the fluid intake, keeping the arm warm makes the veins more prominent. Keeping the arm down (below your heart) for a good while may also help.
People who are overweight sometimes have veins that are harder to find, but that’s not always the case.
Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual questions, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Readers may email questions to [email protected] .

Open Question Answering | How To Cook Chicken Wings In Air Fryer
If you’re a fan of chicken wings, you know how delicious they can be when perfectly cooked. The crispy skin, tender meat, and mouthwatering flavor are hard to resist. While deep-frying wings is the traditional method, using an air fryer is a healthier and easier alternative. In this article, we’ll guide you through the steps to cook chicken wings in an air fryer, ensuring you achieve crispy, flavorful wings every time.
Ingredients: – Chicken wings – Salt – Pepper – Garlic powder – Paprika – Optional: BBQ sauce, hot sauce, or your favorite wing sauce
Instructions: 1. Preheat the air fryer – Preheating the air fryer is essential to ensure even cooking. Set the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) and let it preheat for about 3-5 minutes.
2. Prepare the chicken wings – Pat dry the chicken wings with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. Season them generously with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. You can adjust the seasonings according to your preference or try different combinations.
3. Arrange the wings in the air fryer – Place the seasoned wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket or tray. Avoid overcrowding the wings, as this can prevent proper airflow and result in uneven cooking. If you have a large batch of wings, it’s better to cook them in multiple batches.
4. Cook the wings – Insert the basket or tray with the wings into the air fryer and set the timer for 25-30 minutes. Flip the wings halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning and crispiness. Cooking times may vary depending on the size of the wings and the specific model of the air fryer, so it’s essential to check for doneness.
5. Check for doneness – After the recommended cooking time, check the wings for doneness. Cut into one wing to ensure there is no pink meat. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C), indicating that the chicken is fully cooked. If needed, continue cooking for a few more minutes until desired crispiness is achieved.
6. Optional sauce coating – If you prefer saucy wings, you can toss the cooked wings in your favorite wing sauce, such as BBQ sauce or hot sauce. Simply add the sauce to a bowl, add the cooked wings, and toss them until coated evenly.
7. Serve and enjoy – Once your wings are cooked to perfection, transfer them to a plate or a serving platter. Garnish with some fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley, and serve them with a side of blue cheese or ranch dressing, carrot sticks, and celery for a classic wing platter.
FAQs:
Q: Can I cook frozen chicken wings in an air fryer? A: Yes, you can cook frozen wings in an air fryer. However, you will need to adjust the cooking time and temperature accordingly. It’s recommended to thaw the wings first for even cooking.
Q: How do I achieve crispy wings in an air fryer? A: To achieve crispy wings, make sure to pat dry the wings before seasoning them. Preheating the air fryer is also crucial, as it helps create a crispier texture. Additionally, flipping the wings halfway through cooking ensures even browning on both sides.
Q: Can I use a sauce before cooking the wings in the air fryer? A: It’s generally better to season the wings with dry seasonings before cooking. Adding sauce before cooking may lead to excessive smoking and may not yield the desired crispy results. However, you can always toss the cooked wings in sauce after they are done.
Q: Can I stack the wings in layers in the air fryer? A: It’s best to cook the wings in a single layer without stacking to ensure even cooking. Overcrowding the air fryer can result in uneven browning and less crispy wings. If you have a large batch, cook them in multiple batches instead.
Now that you’ve mastered cooking chicken wings in an air fryer, you can enjoy crispy, flavorful wings that are healthier than traditional deep-fried ones. Experiment with different seasonings and sauces to create your own unique wing flavors. Whether served as an appetizer, snack, or main dish, these air-fried chicken wings are sure to be a hit! |
Open Question Answering | Match Needs with Solutions in Debt Space with Nippon India Mutual Fund Debt Schemes posted on 29 January 2020 by Sunil Jhaveri It has been a turmoil filled 2019-2020 as far as debt markets are concerned. What was 2008-2009 for Equity markets has turned out to be 2018 onwards in Debt market space since IL&FS defaults and downgrades and thereafter many more defaults by well known names like DHFL, Essel Group, Cox & Kings, and many more.
Our job as advisors is to give smoother and less volatile journey to our Investors; especially in Debt Market space. However, we became part of the GREED of Investors and started chasing yields; thereby recommending Credit Risk Funds even to retail investors. That has created havoc in their portfolios and shaken their beliefs in Mutual Fund schemes.
If we had applied logic and common sense and then guided our Investors on the right path; we would not have come to this juncture. Our mandate was to beat the returns of Fixed Deposit albeit with lower volatility and visibility of returns (two important criteria why Fixed Deposits still continue to be popular Investment vehicles).
Current Debt Market Scenario: RBI paused further rate cuts, which had negative impact on interest rates RBI came with a surprise move of Operation Twist; wherein they bought 10-year G Sec (long dated) and sold less than 1-year G Sec papers had some soothing effect on the yields CPI above RBI’s comfort zone once again spoiled the party. There was sell off both in Corporate Bonds as well in G Secs With Budget around the corner, fear of fiscal slippage seems to be imminent With higher CPI, inflation monitoring has come back on RBI’s MPC radar This will leave very little room for RBI to tinker with rates even in last quarter of FY 2020 Also, there will be higher issuances of G Secs, SDLs and Corporate Bonds in last quarter All this will ensure interest rates will remain range bound due to higher issuances with combination of RBI’s special operation Recommendation: Investors should invest in schemes with high quality Corporate Bonds with shorter maturities of 2-3 years Elevated levels of rates in this segment will help in higher accruals in the portfolios with possibility of further spikes around the Budget time One should be ready with cash to take advantage of this opportunity Nippon India Short Term Fund: Nippon India Short Term Fund, DID NOT OWN any bonds which have Defaulted An ideal scheme in current market context with shorter duration and no credit calls.
The fund runs a moderate duration strategy, which is maintained in the range of 1.25 years to 2.25 years. Fund focuses on Accrual Income and will outperform in a bull steepening environment The fund manager while investing places emphasis on good credit quality assets. Around 70-100% investment would be made in up to 3 years assets and 0-25% between 3-5 years assets, 0-20% tactical allocation may be made to G-Secs / SDLs based on absolute yield and spread views. Due to their Conservative Investment Philosophy of not running higher Duration or not taking any Credit exposure, this fund was immune to any credit crisis. 3 Year Daily Rolling Returns data of Nippon India Short Term Fund over past 10 years has delivered excellent returns to the Investors with almost 85% of the observations delivering 7% or higher CAGR.: Another theme that can be looked at in the current debt market space is strategies following Constantly Rolling Down on Maturities. Only if we understand certain Concepts used by the Fund Managers and identify which schemes follow these concepts with very little or no credit risk; will we be able to guide our Investors on the right path.
One such very popular (and my favorite) Concept is CONSTANTLY ROLLING DOWN ON MATURITY . Let us first understand this Concept in detail and then identify which schemes are using the same and how are these beneficial for our Investors. I have been an advocate of this Concept for many years now and schemes of many AMCs have used this based on my recommendations as well.
Now let me explain to you the concept of Constantly Rolling Down and how does it benefit the Investors; especially in a steep yield curve scenario (like current one): Unless you understand the Concept, you will not be able to comprehend the full implications of how to position schemes following this Concept for your Investors and whether these schemes are suitable for your client requirements or not. I have been saying this in almost all my sessions that IFAs should not sell anything blindly. Unless you have conviction in the scheme/asset class/strategy, you will not have consistency in your advice. You should not sell products or schemes; you should sell Solutions for different needs of your Investors and that way you will be able to position them more effectively.
Concept: Constantly Rolling Down strategy: I am sure many of you have heard of March CD/NCD schemes following constantly rolling down strategy. In the month of March, Fund Manager buys next year March CD/NCD. In the month of April, he buys the same CD/NCD with residual maturity of 11 months. In the month of May, he buys CD/NCD with residual maturity of 10 months and so on and so forth. In a steep yield curve scenario, borrower tends to pay higher interest for longer dated securities (in this case 1 year) and lower yields for shorter dated securities i.e. lower yields for 11 months/10 months CD/NCD, etc. Hence, the Fund Manager locks in higher yields in the month of Feb/March and constantly rolls down the same. For example, if the Fund Manager say locks in 10% yield for 1-year March CD/NCD, in the month of May he may buy 10-month residual maturity CD/NCD at maybe 9.50%. So, those who invested in the month of March will not only get the benefit of higher coupon of 10%; but also, MTM capital gains in the month of May as 10 months CD has come off in yields to (in this example) 9.50%. Hence, the Investor has two options at this stage: 1) Hold till next March and earn 10% captured YTM or 2) exit in May and earn 10% captured YTM for two months and capital gains of 0.50% from March to May.
Let us take another extreme example which occurred in 2013. Those who had invested in March 2013 in the said scheme had captured YTM of almost 9%. In the month of August interest rates went up and the same March CD with residual maturity of 8 months jumped up to 12%. Naturally, investor in March would be sitting on some losses (9% interest rates jumping up to 12%). He had as mentioned above two choices 1) Hold onto investment till next March and he would have earned the captured YTM of 9% at the time of investment or 2) and, invest more at 12% levels and his returns from August 2013 to March 2014 would have been locked in at higher yields. Redeeming out of the said scheme at that juncture simply did not make any sense as the Investors would be sitting on some losses at that point in time.
Unfortunately, since many were not aware of this Constantly Rolling Down concept and its repercussions on their Investor portfolios, there was a redemption pressure in August 2013 from these schemes. That is the reason I am saying that one should not sell anything blindly, understand Concepts before recommending any schemes and have conviction to have consistency in your advice.
Now let us identify which schemes are following this Concept from the basket of Nippon India Mutual Fund:
Nippon India Nivesh Lakshya Fund (26 + Year G Sec Paper) Inception: July 2018: Gross YTM 8.11% - Average Maturity: 26.39 years
December 31’20219: Gross YTM: 7.11% - Average Maturity: 25.08 Years
Nippon India Floating Rate Fund: (3-3.5-year AAA or Equivalent Securities) December 31’2019: Gross YTM: 6.82%
As can be seen from above, both these schemes follow this strategy with no credit risks. One invests in long dated 25 year + G Sec papers and is rolling it down; whereas the other scheme invests in shorter dated AAA rated securities and will be rolling this down. Both will need to positioned for different needs and requirements of your Investors.
Nippon India Floating Rate Fund Fund Strategy – Forward Outlook The Fund invests predominantly in securities issued by Public Financial Institutions/ HFC/ NBFC/ Private Sector Corporate & in Government Securities Rating Profile: Portfolio comprises of only AAA rated/ equivalent securities They intend to construct the portfolio with a maturity of 3-3.5 years and would graduallyroll-down the duration as we go along The Fund aims to capture the prevailing yields available in assets maturing in early CY 2023 Portfolio intends to run a modified duration of 2.80 – 3 years Portfolio would roll down in terms of maturity over a period of time The Fund is best suited for investors looking for gross yield in range of 7.00-7.25% over the investment horizon of 3 – 3.5 years Ideally, any debt scheme should be held for 3 year plus for Indexation benefit and lower LTCG Tax Ideal investment horizon should be 2-3 years Hence, if one invests in this scheme, it can be treated as Open Ended FMP with an option to exit before 3 years if interest rates soften and investors need funds before 3 years or treat it as 3-year FMP wherein returns are more or less visible Now Let’s talk about Nippon India Nivesh Lakshya Fund How do we Position Nippon India Nivesh Lakshya Fund? Before I get into how to position this scheme for different needs of the Investors; let me first highlight one very important risk which most Investors and Advisors miss out on. That Risk is REINVESTMENT RISK.
Most investments, even in debt space are only for 3-5-year (including Fixed Deposits). Little do Investors realise that every time these investments mature, there is always that reinvestment risk – which means that rates at which you will get to reinvest on maturity may be lower than their earlier locked in returns. Bank Fixed Deposit data reveals that FD rates have fallen by more than 50% over past 22 years . Imagine if there was FD for say 25 years and the Investors had locked in higher double digit returns available those days and held onto that till date.
To give you an example: assuming that interest rates soften by 250 bps over next 25 years. Investor A invests in 3-year Fixed Deposits and renews it every 3 years v/s Investor B who locks in his returns through investment in Nippon India Nivesh Lakshya for next 25 years.
Difference in their portfolios is as much as Rs.1.25 crores on original investment of Rs.1 crore as shown in the chart below:
Now let us talk about how to pitch this as NEED-SOLUTION approach: Need: Investment in Debt for long term (Core Portfolio): Current Solution: PPF (15 years)/ Fixed Deposits (5-10 years)/ Mutual Fund schemes (3-5 years), Tax Free Bonds (10 years) Alternate Solution: Nippon India Nivesh Lakshya (25 years plus)This can be the core portfolio in debt space for any investor with no credit risk, better tax efficient returns and high liquidity. Of course, as explained, it will have volatility as part and parcel of the portfolio. Tell your investors to wear blinkers (like race horses) and continue to hold the investment through ups and downs of the interest rate cycles. Also, post PMC Bank fiasco, lot of Investors are wary of investing in FDs with banks as well. This product will ensure diversification + Liquidity (which depositors of failed PMC Bank did not have)
Need: Lock in returns and have visibility Current Solutions: Fixed Deposits (5-10 years)/ Fixed Maturity Plans (3 years) Alternate Solution: Treat Nippon India Nivesh Lakshya Fund like open ended FMPs. Whenever (currently before Budget or even post Budget), if interest rates rise, invest at that time, hold till maturity (or earlier if interest rates soften from the date of your investments) and earn higher tax efficient returns with visibility as well Need: Meet Long Term Goals like Education, Marriage, Retirement corpuses Current Solutions: PPF, Endowment Policies, SIP in Equity MFs Alternate Solution: Both the debt options above are not able to beat inflation with limited liquidity. As we are aware, Equity SIPs have not been for long term. Statistics have revealed that due to volatility attached to this asset class, many SIPs get discontinued during severe market corrections. Otherwise a great source for meeting long term goals if Investors control their emotions. Invest in Nippon India Nivesh Lakshya and generate higher, tax efficient, inflation beating returns to meet different goals of the Investors Need: Follow Asset Allocation strategy between Debt and Equity Current Solutions: Equity Funds and Liquid/Credit Risk Schemes, Ultra Short-Term Bond Funds Alternate Solution: Equity MF schemes + Nippon India Nivesh Lakshya FundUnder Asset Allocation strategy when one asset class is riskier and more volatile (Equity) then why should one take unnecessary Credit Risk in the other Asset Class which is Debt? Invest in Nippon India Nivesh Lakshya and be a passive investor in the Debt space
Need: Regular cash flows Current Solutions: Interest on Fixed Deposits Alternate Solution: Deferred Systematic Withdrawal from Nippon India Nivesh Lakshya FundThis is a very powerful way of pitching Nippon India Nivesh Lakshya. Differed Annuity helps Investor to build a cushion in initial years without withdrawing any funds. Thereafter, the Investor can start withdrawing at certain % p.a. (which can be much higher than the locked in returns if deferred for more years) as can be seen from the second table above. Here, the Investor has not withdrawn any funds for first 10 years, built a sizeable cushion in the portfolio and is still able to withdraw at as high as 12.50% p.a. without dipping into principal (as is evident from the column of Residual Value which in this case is Rs.10.18 lacs on original investment of Rs.10 lacs) .
This should be pitched to even young Investors of say 25-35 years of age, who do not need any cash flows in the initial years and they can start withdrawing from say 35-45 years of age. This becomes their 2nd source of Income. As legendary Investor Warren Buffet has said: “Never depend on a single source of Income. Create a second source of Incomeâ€. We can guide young investors to allocate their debt portion in this scheme and create an opportunity to generate second source of Income through this Deferred Annuity concept .I am not an advocate of showing Point to Point returns; however, since this scheme has short track record since July 2018, I can only show P2P over last 1 year and since Inception returns. I had recommended this scheme during NFO and subsequently in May 2019 as well.
Hence as explained above, one can look to invest in these 3 schemes of Nippon India Mutual Fund with different investment horizons and as different NEED-SOLUTION approach. This will get the Mind Share and Wallet Share of your Investors without taking any Credit Calls:
Nippon India Short Term Fund – with 3-year plus investment horizon Nippon India Floating Rate Fund – with 2-3- year investment horizon Nippon India Nivesh Lakshya Fund - with very long term 10-25-year investment horizon |

Open Question Answering | Conversion from Million to Crore (Mn to cr) This segment will provide a step-by-step explanation of how to convert a million to a crore. The system of measurement used is the International System of Units, also known as SI. This system is used to measure physical properties such as matter. SI is widely utilized in various fields like education and industry.
SI units are commonly used in everyday tasks such as grocery shopping or cooking in the kitchen. It is essential to comprehend the importance of understanding the conversion of units from one system to another. Let's move forward and learn how to convert a million to a crore.
Million and Crore Explained The numeration system uses terms such as million, lakh, and crore to represent large sums of money. These terms were created to simplify and speed up the process of understanding amounts of money through their symbols or names.
Before we go into the conversion of currency, it's important to note that the conversion is from a unit within the international system to one within the Indian numbering system. The place value differs from one system to another.
What is a Million? A million is a unit within the international numbering system. It is often written as 'm' and comes from the Italian word 'millione.' It follows the numerical value 999,999 and precedes 1,000,001.
What is a Crore? In the Indian numbering system, a crore is a unit of measurement equivalent to ten million or 1,00,00,000.
Converting Millions to Crores The conversion of a million to a crore can be done effortlessly with the help of online conversion tools. All you need to do is enter the unit and value required. These tools offer fast and accurate results and are easy to use. Elaborated calculations simplify the process of understanding the conversion. You can also opt for the traditional method of using the million to crore formula for conversion, which comprises a lengthy table.
What Sets Million and Crore Apart? The primary difference between a million and a crore is their origin. A million is a unit used in the international system of numeration, while a crore comes from the Indian numbering system. Besides the region-based difference, there are other factors that set them apart, such as their usage and place value. The Indian numbering system has place values for digits, including ones, tens, thousands, ten thousands, lakhs, ten lakhs, crores, etc. In contrast, the international numbering system has place values of ones, tens, thousands, ten thousand, hundred thousand, millions, and so on. In certain parts of the US, large numbers are separated by commas at intervals of three digits, with "M" representing millions and "B" representing billions.

Open Question Answering | A Running Dialog I’ve been having a dialog with one of my readers for the past week or so and she has given me permission to use her emails to me and my responses to her questions. I thought this might be an interesting project to run occasionally. In response to: A Loving God
my reader posed this response: dear chris,good day,i do believe that we are all sinners, we sinned one way or another, but i don’t believe to beg to be forgiven..
i was quite interested in your blog coz you talk about God which is unique nowadays.many talk about politics, social issues, sports, weather, food, miss universe, etc, but yours is different.
kind of wonder about law of attraction… so i researched. honestly, its my first time to come across it.. i don’t know if this is an appropriate question, but i might as well ask, is your belief system about God hinged on the philosophy of law of attraction? what is your belief system? you don’t believe in organized religion… what is it then-a relationship?. kindly share. thanks.
All interesting questions I thought.
This was MY response: Hi:Glad you’re sticking around. As I’m sure you’ve discovered, My God is very important to me. My Faith is very important to me and I no longer worry whether people accept my belief system or not. I also no longer worry about discussing what I believe. People will either accept me or they won’t.
What is my belief system? — I believe in an all knowing benevolent God. One who loves unconditionally.— I believe all of life is a lesson. We’re here to learn those lessons. In a couple of my early entries here, I discussed my belief in past lives and reincarnation. Check them out here:
Life Is About Moving Forward Karma So yes, I SINCERELY believe we ALL return over and over. We come back until we’ve reached a point in our soul’s evolution where we are one with God. This may seem like a weird analogy, but did you ever see the movie Groundhog Day with Bill Murray? In that movie, Murray plays a weatherman who re-lives the same day over and over until he gets it right. That’s how I look at life in general. We keep returning until we get it right.
As far as sinning goes, I have NO issue w/what others believe. Everyone has a right to their own belief system. That’s fine! For me sinning equals learning your lessons in this lifetime. If you’ve done something against spiritual law in this lifetime or a previous lifetime, you’re going to come up against the same situation again and again until you change your behavior. Again I’m going to refer back to Groundhog Day, I hope you bear with me here.
There is a scene there where Bill Murray’s character is rushing to the Groundhog Day event and he stumbles over a homeless man. He looks back at him, shrugs his shoulders and keeps moving. This same scene plays out again and again until he learns that he has to help this old man. Once he has LEARNED that lesson he can move on. So yes we are here to learn our own lessons. We’re going to keep running into the same situation until we learn what we’re supposed to learn. In a nutshell, that is what I believe.
No fears. There are no inappropriate questions. My relationship with My God has nothing to do w/my belief in The Law of Attraction. Although, My Faith and My Spirituality has grown tremendously since practicing The Law. Thanks for taking an interest in my blog and for speaking up. I write this blog on a daily basis, but unless I get feedback from my readers I never know whether people are reading it and how they are taking my viewpoints; so I really appreciate that you take the time to respond to my entries.
Here’s what I’d like to do with this experiment. If anyone else would like to email me and comment on ANY of my entries here, I’d LOVE to use your emails and my responses as a blog entry once in awhile. What do you think? Good idea/Bad idea?
Be Happy! Be Well! Be Positive! — Chris |

Open Question Answering | Introduction to Cattle Gestation Cattle ranching is a diverse and nuanced operation. Beyond managing pastures, water supplies, and livestock health, understanding the reproductive processes of cattle is integral to successful herd management for the cow calf producer. One of the most frequently asked questions about cattle reproduction revolves around the length of gestation.
Cattle gestation is a vital period that requires careful attention, nutritional management, and health monitoring to ensure the birth of a healthy calf. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of bovine gestation duration is essential for effective farm management and enhancing productivity.
So, How Long Are Cows Pregnant? Factors Influencing a Cow’s Length of Gestation Key Stages of Cow Gestation Parturition How Ranchers Manage the Reproduction of Cattle Impacts of the Gestation Period on Milk Production Post-pregnancy Milk Production Conclusion: Key Takeaways On Length Of Gestation and Management Frequently Asked Questions about Cattle Gestation Understanding the Bovine Reproductive System The reproductive system of a cow is a complex arrangement in a constant cyclical motion. Cows typically have an estrous cycle of 21 days, with ovulation occurring roughly 12-18 hours after the onset of estrus (the period of sexual receptivity). If fertilized by a bull’s sperm during this ovulation window, an embryo forms, leading to pregnancy.
Knowing when a cow is in estrus is critical for successful breeding, whether through natural mating or artificial insemination. Signs of estrus include increased activity, bellowing, decreased milk production, and a swollen vulva, also cows will mount other cows in the absence of a bull. Observing these signs allows for effective timing of insemination, subsequently increasing the chances of pregnancy.
The Importance of Pregnancy in Dairy Cows The profitability of dairy farms relies heavily on successful pregnancies. A lactating dairy cow produces milk for about 305 days, after which she enters a dry period that lasts around 60 days. To maintain a yearly calving schedule, the cow should become pregnant during the first 85 days of her lactation period.
A successful pregnancy is, therefore, crucial for continued milk production. This cyclical process of lactation, drying off, and calving ensures the consistent flow of milk that is crucial to the dairy industry. Moreover, the birth of new calves supports herd growth and renewal, allowing for the replacement of older cows and the potential sale of surplus animals for additional income.
So, How Long Are Cows Pregnant? The question of how long cows are pregnant is pertinent with a simple answer.
The Typical Gestation Period for Cows On average, a cow’s gestation period – the duration of pregnancy from conception to birth – is approximately 280 to 285 days or about nine months. The gestation length can vary by a few days depending on several factors, but it remains within this timeframe.
However, it’s worth noting that the exact duration of a cow’s pregnancy can differ based on critical elements, which we will delve into in the following sections. Understanding these factors is essential for managing the health and well-being of the pregnant cow and efficiently scheduling farm operations, from calving to breeding and milk production.
Factors Influencing a Cow’s Length of Gestation Several factors can influence how long a cow stays pregnant, including the cow’s breed and overall health and nutrition.
The Role of Breed in the Length of Gestation Generally, there are no significant differences in the gestation period between different breeds of cows. Regardless of breed, most cows have a gestation period of about 280 to 285 days. However, there can be slight variations within that range.
For example, British breed cows (like Angus or Hereford) tend to have shorter gestation periods, averaging around 281 days. In contrast, Continental breed cows (such as Charolais or Limousin) generally have slightly longer gestations, averaging about 287 days. These are minor differences but can impact the timing of calving and subsequent herd management practices.
How Nutrition and Health Impacts Length of Gestation The health and nutrition of a cow can significantly influence the length of her pregnancy. Cows that are well-nourished and healthy generally have gestation lengths within the average range.
Conversely, cows that are malnourished or have health issues may experience more extended gestation periods or complications during pregnancy. For instance, malnutrition can delay fetal growth and development, potentially lengthening the gestation period. Therefore, providing a balanced diet rich in nutrients and maintaining good herd health is essential for optimal pregnancy outcomes.
Key Stages of Cow Gestation Understanding the different stages of cow gestation is critical to providing appropriate care and nutrition. Gestation is generally divided into three trimesters, each with its unique set of developments and changes in the cow’s body.
The First Trimester: Early Development The early development of the embryo marks the first trimester of gestation. During this time, the embryo implants into the uterine wall and forms vital organs. The cow may not show noticeable physical changes during this stage, but the foundational development happening within is critical.
Ranchers should know the increased nutritional needs during this period. Even though there may not be any visible changes, the cow’s body is working hard to support the developing fetus.
The Second Trimester: Fetal Growth and Body Changes The second trimester sees a significant growth spurt in the fetus. The fetus begins to take on a more recognizable form, and its organ systems continue to develop. The cow’s body shows signs of pregnancy, with an enlarging belly and potential behavioral changes.
Nutritional management during the second trimester is crucial. The cow’s diet must provide the necessary nutrients for her body maintenance and the growing fetus. Providing adequate nutrition can contribute to the birth of a healthy calf and prepare the cow for the third trimester and subsequent lactation.
The Third Trimester: Preparing for Calving In the third trimester, the fetus undergoes significant growth, gaining weight rapidly and finalizing the development of its organ systems. The cow’s body continues to adjust to the growing calf, and her energy and nutrient requirements increase significantly to support this final phase of pregnancy.
At this stage, careful management is necessary to ensure that the cow is comfortable, well-nourished, and prepared for the physical demands of birth. Adjustments in diet to meet higher energy and nutrient demands, regular health checks, and preparing a suitable calving environment are crucial tasks for farmers during this stage.
Parturition As the end of the gestation period approaches, the cow moves into parturition. Understanding the signs of imminent labor and the calving process can help ensure a smooth and safe birth.
Signs of Imminent Labor Close to the expected calving date, several signs can indicate that a cow is ready to give birth. Some of these signs include the relaxation of pelvic ligaments, enlargement and reddening of the vulva, udder filling with milk, and noticeable behavioral changes like restlessness or isolation from the herd. By recognizing these signs, farmers can prepare for the upcoming birth and provide the necessary assistance.
Calving Parturition, in cows, is divided into three stages. The first stage involves the dilation of the cervix and can last from 2 to 24 hours. The second stage is the calf’s delivery, which typically takes an hour or two. The third and final stage is the expulsion of the afterbirth or placenta, usually within 8-12 hours after the calf’s birth.
During this time, minimal intervention is often the best approach unless complications arise. However, farmers should be on standby to provide help if necessary, such as when there are signs of a difficult birth (dystocia) or if the placenta isn’t expelled naturally.
Post-delivery Observation for the Cow and Calf Post-delivery observation is critical for both the cow and the newborn calf. For the cow, monitoring her health after birth, ensuring she eats and drinks properly, and checking for any post-calving complications are vital. Conversely, the calf should stand and nurse from the mother within the first few hours after birth. This early nursing is essential as it allows the calf to ingest colostrum, the first milk rich in antibodies that help establish the calf’s immune system.
For many ranchers, using technologies like HerdView® can provide a convenient and efficient way to monitor the cow’s movement to water.
How Ranchers Manage the Reproduction of Cattle Managing gestation effectively is crucial to maintain herd health, ensure successful calving, and maximize farm productivity. This management encompasses pregnancy detection and monitoring, ensuring diets meet nutritional needs, and planning for safe calving.
Pregnancy Detection and Monitoring Early detection of pregnancy in cows helps farmers manage their herd effectively. Pregnancy can be detected through various methods, including manual palpation, ultrasound, or blood tests, with the earliest reliable detection usually around 30 days post-breeding.
Regularly monitoring her condition is vital once a cow is confirmed pregnant.
Nutritional Needs During Gestation The nutritional needs of a cow change dramatically during pregnancy, particularly in the later stages. A balanced diet that provides adequate energy, protein, vitamins, and minerals is critical for the health of the cow and her developing calf. Nutritional management can also influence the cow’s milk production post-calving.
Farmers need to work with a veterinarian or a cattle nutrition specialist to develop a feeding program that meets the needs for dairy cows. Ranchers need to ensure that pastures meet the nutrient requirements of the cattle, and supplement as necessary. Regular body condition scoring and adjusting the diet as necessary can help ensure that cows stay healthy, which can help mitigate health problems and calving difficulties.
Planning for Calving Farmers must prepare for calving in advance. This involves ensuring that a clean, quiet, and comfortable calving area is available for the cow. Close monitoring around the expected calving date allows for timely intervention if difficulties arise. Once the calf is born, timely observation to the newborn, including ensuring it receives colostrum, is also vital.
Impacts of the Gestation Period on Milk Production The gestation period and subsequent calving event significantly influence dairy cows’ milk production.
The Dry Period: Rest for the Dairy Cow The dry period, typically the last two months of a cow’s gestation, is a non-lactating period that allows the cow to rest and rejuvenate her udder tissue in preparation for the next lactation. This period is crucial for the cow’s future milk production and health. Farmers typically use this time to provide specific nutritional support to the cow to optimize her health and prepare her for the next lactation and calving demands.
Post-pregnancy Milk Production After calving, the cow enters a new lactation cycle. She usually reaches peak milk production around 40 to 60 days after calving. The amount and quality of her milk are influenced by several factors, including her genetics, diet, health, and management. Proper management of the cow during gestation and the dry period can set the stage for successful lactation.
Consequently, understanding the relationship between the gestation period and milk production is critical for farmers, helping to maximize the productivity and profitability of their dairy operations.
Conclusion: Key Takeaways On Length Of Gestation and Management Understanding the duration of a gestation and the factors influencing it is critical to effective herd management. At an average of 280 to 285 days, the gestation period is a time of significant physiological change and development, demanding appropriate nutritional and health management to ensure a successful outcome.
Effectively managing cattle reproduction ultimately benefits the cow, her calf, and the entire operation, contributing to sustainable, productive, and profitable farming. As a rancher or feedlot manager, understanding and implementing best practices in reproduction management is an investment that pays off in healthier animals, improved productivity, and increased profits.
Frequently Asked Questions about Cattle Gestation Given pregnancy’s importance in cattle management, several questions commonly arise. Let’s tackle some of these frequently asked queries.
Is Twinning Common in Cattle? While twinning in cattle can occur, it is rare. Around 1-5% of cattle pregnancies result in twins. It is more frequent in dairy breeds compared to beef breeds. Twin pregnancies can be more challenging to manage, as they may cause health issues for the cow and result in smaller, weaker calves.
What Happens if a Cow Doesn’t Become Pregnant? A cow that doesn’t become pregnant can be a significant concern, especially in dairy operations where pregnancy is necessary for continued milk production. Non-pregnant cows, often called ‘open,’ can be a financial drain as they consume resources without contributing to farm output. Therefore, identifying and addressing the reasons for infertility, such as health issues or nutritional deficiencies, is crucial.
Can Cows Deliver Multiple Calves? While most cows deliver a single calf per pregnancy, delivering two calves (twins) or three (triplets) can rarely occur. However, multiple births are less common and can be associated with complications, such as preterm birth, low birth weight calves, and post-calving health issues in the cow. |
Open Question Answering | Pinot Grigio and Chardonnay are two of the most well-liked white wine varieties. Although both wines are light and energizing, there are clear distinctions between them in terms of flavor, aroma, and style.
We’ll examine the distinctions between Pinot Grigio and Chardonnay in this post to assist you in making your next wine selection.
What is Pinot Grigio? Pinot Grigio is a white wine that originated in Italy. It is made from the Pinot Gris grape, which is known for its grayish-blue skin.
Pinot Grigio is typically light-bodied, crisp, and refreshing, with a high acidity and citrus flavors. It is often served chilled and is a popular choice for summer drinking.
What is Chardonnay? Chardonnay is a white wine that originated in the Burgundy region of France. It is made from the Chardonnay grape, which is known for its versatility and ability to adapt to different climates and winemaking techniques.
Chardonnay is typically medium to full-bodied, with a rich, buttery texture and flavors of tropical fruit, vanilla, and oak. It can be served chilled or at room temperature and is a popular choice for pairing with food.
Flavor and Aroma Pinot Grigio is known for its light, crisp, and refreshing flavor. It has a high acidity and flavors of citrus, green apple, and pear. Pinot Grigio is often described as having a “zippy” or “zesty” flavor, and is a popular choice for hot summer days.
Chardonnay, on the other hand, is known for its rich, buttery, and creamy flavor. It has a lower acidity than Pinot Grigio and flavors of tropical fruit, vanilla, and oak.
Chardonnay is often described as having a “buttery” or “oaky” flavor, and is a popular choice for pairing with rich, creamy dishes.
Style Pinot Grigio is typically made in a light, crisp, and refreshing style. It is often fermented in stainless steel tanks, which helps to preserve its bright
and fresh flavors. Pinot Grigio is also often produced in a dry style, meaning that it has little to no residual sugar. This makes it a popular choice for those who prefer wines that are not too sweet.
Chardonnay, on the other hand, can be made in a variety of styles. It can be fermented in oak barrels, which gives it a richer, creamier texture and flavors of vanilla and oak.
It can also be fermented in stainless steel tanks, which preserves its fruit flavors and acidity. Chardonnay can also be produced in a variety of sweetness levels, from dry to sweet.
Food Pairings Pinot Grigio is a versatile wine that pairs well with a variety of foods. Its high acidity makes it a good match for seafood, salads, and light pasta dishes. It also pairs well with spicy foods, as the acidity helps to cut through the heat.
Chardonnay is a popular choice for pairing with rich, creamy dishes. Its buttery texture and flavors of vanilla and oak make it a good match for dishes like lobster, scallops, and creamy pastas.
It also pairs well with chicken and pork dishes that are prepared with creamy sauces.
Price Pinot Grigio is generally less expensive than Chardonnay. This is because Pinot Grigio is often produced in large quantities and is widely available.
Chardonnay, on the other hand, is often produced in smaller quantities and is more expensive to produce. This is because Chardonnay requires more time and effort to produce, as it is often fermented in oak barrels and undergoes malolactic fermentation.
FAQ Q: Which wine is better, Pinot Grigio or Chardonnay? A: This is a matter of personal preference. If you prefer light, crisp, and refreshing wines, then Pinot Grigio may be the better choice for you.
If you prefer richer, creamier wines with flavors of vanilla and oak, then Chardonnay may be the better choice.

Please Answer My Question!
Executing the program only outputs this rather useless message:
Welcome To Kornewbie CTF, CTF Challengers!Before You Solve This Problem, Please Watch This Video.Video Link : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jofNR_WkoCEPlease Answer My Question, What Does Fox Say?
Binary analysis The binary contains multiple code paths in the main
function which are selected at random. However, only one of those code paths is relevant, because it’s the only code path which checks for a flag and prints the KorNewbie{%s}
string:
/* somewhere in main */buf[0] = 0;*(_DWORD *)&buf[1] = 0;*(_DWORD *)&buf[5] = 0;*(_DWORD *)&buf[9] = 0;*(_DWORD *)&buf[13] = 0;scanf("%s", buf);if(strlen(buf) == 16 && compute_hash(buf, 0x7C35D9A3) == 0xF92AC34) { if(buf[3] == '_' && buf[7] == '_' && buf[12] == '_') { if(buf[0] >= 'A' && buf[0] <= 'Z' && buf[1] >= 'A' && buf[1] <= 'Z' && buf[2] >= 'A' && buf[2] <= 'Z' && buf[4] >= 'A' && buf[4] <= 'Z' && buf[5] >= 'A' && buf[5] <= 'Z' && buf[6] >= 'A' && buf[6] <= 'Z' && buf[8] >= 'A' && buf[8] <= 'Z' && buf[9] >= 'A' && buf[9] <= 'Z' && buf[10] >= 'A' && buf[10] <= 'Z' && buf[11] >= 'A' && buf[11] <= 'Z' && buf[13] >= 'A' && buf[13] <= 'Z' && buf[14] >= 'A' && buf[14] <= 'Z' && buf[15] >= 'A' && buf[15] <= 'Z') { printf("Good! Check The Flag!\n"); printf("KorNewbie{%s}\n", buf); } }}
There is an input for a single word (scanf
). Afterwards, the length is checked (16 characters) and a hash is computed. If the hash matches the expected hash, the structure of the string is checked:
only uppercase letters _
at positions 3, 7, and 12Therefore, the string we are looking for is supposed to have this structure:
AAA_AAA_AAAA_AAA
The hash function itself looks like this:
int compute_hash(const char *str, int magic){ unsigned int i; int hash = 0; for(i = 0; i < strlen(str); i++) hash = magic ^ ((str[i] | 0x20) + __ROR4__(hash, 8)); return crt_check(1, hash);}
(The crt_check
function in the hash function just performs some runtime checks and then returns the second argument, this function is not interesting for us.)
This function computes a hash using the magic constant. Interestingly enough, this hash function was taken from a real world malware sample. Unfortunately the published analysis of that malware sample does not contain a useful analysis of the hash function itself.
Basic Idea The only way to solve this challenge is by breaking the hash function. A simple brute force attack is way too slow and even with a dictionary the search space is still too big. The solution is to use SMT with a powerful SMT solver, which deals with all the complexity for us. We only have to encode the problem in SMT.
Encode the problem in SMT Encoding the problem in SMT is rather simple: just unroll the loop of the hash algorithm and add the constraints on the input from the main function. We use the theory of bit vectors to encode our 32bit variables and operations.
Definitions First define constants for the lower and upper limit of the input:
(declare-const lower (_ BitVec 32))(assert (= lower #x00000041)) ; A(declare-const upper (_ BitVec 32))(assert (= upper #x0000005A)) ; Z
We also need the magic constant from the main function as well as the constant that is or’d to the input:
(declare-const magic (_ BitVec 32))(assert (= magic #x7C35D9A3))(declare-const cons (_ BitVec 32))(assert (= cons #x00000020))
Loop Unrolling: First Iteration Now we need to translate the hash function itself. In SMT everything has to be unrolled, and variables from the original program have to be in SSA form. This means we need one set of variables for every iteration of the hash function.
Let’s start with the first iteration. The hash
variable is initialized with 0
. We call this out0
:
(declare-const out0 (_ BitVec 32))(assert (= out0 #x00000000))
Now apply the constraints from the main function on the first character of the input (only upper case letters):
(declare-const i0 (_ BitVec 32))(assert (and (bvule i0 upper) (bvuge i0 lower)))
Then, we define a temporary variable t0 = str[0] | 0x20
:
(declare-const t0 (_ BitVec 32))(assert (= t0 (bvor i0 cons)))
This variable is XOR’d with the magic constant, which results in the hash
value after the first iteration. Since the previous hash value is 0
, we can ignore the ROT part here:
(declare-const out1 (_ BitVec 32))(assert (= out1 (bvxor t0 magic)))
Loop Unrolling: Second Iteration Now we have to unroll the second iteration. Again, we start with the constraints on the input:
(declare-const i1 (_ BitVec 32))(assert (and (bvule i1 upper) (bvuge i1 lower)))
Then, we define the temporary variable it1 = str[1] | 0x20
:
(declare-const it1 (_ BitVec 32))(assert (= it1 (bvor i1 cons)))
This time we have to add the rotated old hash value:
(declare-const rot1 (_ BitVec 32))(assert (= rot1 ((_ rotate_right 8) out1)))(declare-const prexor1 (_ BitVec 32))(assert (= prexor1 (bvadd it1 rot1)))
The XOR with the magic constants results in the hash
value after the second iteration:
(declare-const out2 (_ BitVec 32))(assert (= out2 (bvxor prexor1 magic)))
Loop Unrolling: Third .. Sixteenth Iteration Unrolling the remaining loop iterations works exactly in the same way. However, there is one special case with the checks for _
characters. At those positions, the input is asserted to be _
instead of the constraint for upper case letters:
(declare-const i3 (_ BitVec 32))(assert (= i3 #x0000005f)) ; _
Check the Hash After unrolling all loop iterations, the final hash value out16
is checked by comparing it to our expected hash:
(assert (= out16 #x0F92AC34))
Compute the Flag A solution can now be computed by calling an SMT solver:
boolector -m -x fox.smt2
The SMT solver now checks if there is a “satisfying assignment”, which means it tries to find an input which produces the hash we’re interested in. It then outputs the variable assignment, and we get this result:
KorNewbie{RRV_NQN_UAAO_KLE}
Unfortunately, we cannot submit this flag because the online system tells us it’s “incorrect”.
Guessing the Flag So … we computed a valid flag, but we can’t submit it because the system tells us it’s invalid. This is where the real fun starts. We now have to guess the flag.
We can choose letters and e.g. specify that the word FOX
has to appear. Unfortunately we can still get lots of “incorrect” flags, even if we force words. After a few hours of playing this “guessing game”, I guessed that the flag might start with THE_FOX_SAYS_
, since the program asks us What Does Fox Say?
.
Encoding such a constraint is rather simple, just force the input to specific values:
; guess the first few words(assert (and (= i0 #x00000054) (= i1 #x00000048) (= i2 #x00000045))) ; THE(assert (and (= i4 #x00000046) (= i5 #x0000004F) (= i6 #x00000058))) ; FOX(assert (and (= i8 #x00000053) (= i9 #x00000041) (= i10 #x00000059) (= i11 #x00000053))) ; SAYS
Now, with this guess we finally get our flag that can be submitted:
KorNewbie{THE_FOX_SAYS_SUA}
Unique Solution Challenges without unique solutions suck. After we already guessed the solution, the challenge was “fixed” with the following change:
ref[0] = 0;ref[1] = 0x1C;ref[2] = 0x11;ref[3] = 0xB;ref[4] = 0x12;ref[5] = 0x1B;ref[6] = 0xC;ref[7] = 0xB;ref[8] = 7;ref[9] = 0x15;ref[10] = 0xD;ref[11] = 7;ref[12] = 0xB;ref[13] = 7;ref[14] = 1;ref[15] = 0x15;if(...) { /* this is the long if from before */ ok = 1; for(i = 0; i < strlen(buf); i++) { if((buf[i] ^ buf[0]) != ref[i]) ok = 0; } if(ok == 1) { printf("Good! Check The Flag!\n"); printf("KorNewbie{%s}\n", buf); }}
This change is supposed to make the solution unique.
In SMT, this contstraint looks like this:
(assert (= (bvxor i0 i0) #x00000000))(assert (= (bvxor i1 i0) #x0000001C))(assert (= (bvxor i2 i0) #x00000011))(assert (= (bvxor i3 i0) #x0000000B))(assert (= (bvxor i4 i0) #x00000012))(assert (= (bvxor i5 i0) #x0000001B))(assert (= (bvxor i6 i0) #x0000000C))(assert (= (bvxor i7 i0) #x0000000B))(assert (= (bvxor i8 i0) #x00000007))(assert (= (bvxor i9 i0) #x00000015))(assert (= (bvxor i10 i0) #x0000000D))(assert (= (bvxor i11 i0) #x00000007))(assert (= (bvxor i12 i0) #x0000000B))(assert (= (bvxor i13 i0) #x00000007))(assert (= (bvxor i14 i0) #x00000001))(assert (= (bvxor i15 i0) #x00000015))
If we ask the SMT solver for a model, we directly get the “correct” flag.
To convince ourselves that the solution is now really unique, we can check if there is another solution by “blacklisting” the previous solution:
; blacklist 'THE_FOX_SAYS_SUA'(assert (not (and (= i0 #x00000054) (= i1 #x00000048) (= i2 #x00000045) (= i3 #x0000005f) (= i4 #x00000046) (= i5 #x0000004f) (= i6 #x00000058) (= i7 #x0000005f) (= i8 #x00000053) (= i9 #x00000041) (= i10 #x00000059) (= i11 #x00000053) (= i12 #x0000005f) (= i13 #x00000053) (= i14 #x00000055) (= i15 #x00000041))))
Now the SMT solver tells us unsat
, which means there is indeed only one solution. |

Square root of 58 The number 58 is a special number with only two factors 2 and 29 (both are prime numbers) other than 1 and 58. The square root of a number is a number whose product with itself results in the given number. We will now calculate the square root of 58 using different methods and a few interesting facts and problems as well.
Square root of 58: √58 = 7.6157Square of 58: 582 =1. What Is the Square Root of 58? 2. Is Square Root of 58 Rational or Irrational? 3. How to Find the Square Root of 58? 4. FAQs on Square Root of 58 5. Important Notes on Square Root of 58
What is The Square Root of 58? The square root of 58 is √58 = 7.6157. The number 58 has only two factors that are prime too. So, it cannot be simplified further using prime factorization. The number 58 is not a perfect square as its square root is not an integer. Is Square Root of 58 Rational or Irrational? The square root of 58 is a non-terminating and non-repeating number. So, the square root of 58 is an irrational number as it cannot be expressed in the form of p/q where q ≠ 0.
How to Find the Square root of 58? Now we will calculate the square root of 58 using the following methods:
Square Root of 58 Using Approximation Method First, find two consecutive perfect squares between which the number 58 will lie. The two numbers are 49 (72 ) and 64 (82 ). Therefore, the whole number part of the square root of 58 will be 7. Now, for the decimal part, we will use the below-mentioned formula: (Given number – Smaller perfect square) / (Greater perfect square – smaller perfect square) = (58 - 49)/(64 - 49) = 9/15 = 0.60 Hence, the square root of 58 via the approximation method is 7.60. Square Root of 58 By Long Division We will now calculate the square root of 58 by the long division method with the help of the below-given steps.
Start Grouping the digits from the right side in pairs of two by putting a bar on top of them. We get one pair in this case (58). Find a number(n) which when multiplied with itself n × n ≤ 58. So, n will be 7 as 7 × 7 = 49. Now we get the remainder 9 (as 58 - 49 = 9) and the quotient as 7. Also, we have to add the divisor n with itself to get the new divisor. The new divisor here will be 14. Add a decimal in the dividend and quotient part simultaneously. Also, add 3 pairs of zero in the dividend part. Bring down the pair of zero. So, our new dividend is 900. Now find a number(m) such that 14m × m ≤ 900. The number m will be 6 as 146 × 6 = 876 ≤ 900. Repeat the above step for all the pairs of zero. So, we get the square root of √58 = 7.615 by the long division method.

Open Question Answering | How to Get a Perfect Score on the NEET Exam Without Prep Courses in 2023 How to Pass the NEET Exam Without Prep Courses in 2023 If you're in the process of getting ready for something, make sure you look into the most effective methods, strategies, and resources.
Candidates who want to do well on the NEET exam need to exhibit both confidence in themselves and commitment to their studies. They will have a much better chance of passing any test if they put in the time and effort to prepare for it properly. In addition to these, candidates should know the exam's format, scope, and recommended reading materials before beginning study.
List of Subjects
Guide to Successfully Passing the National Evaluation of Educational Progress on Your First Try The question of how to succeed at first try at the National Eligibility and Eligibility Test (NEET) persists. Candidates need to put in as much time as possible studying for their exams to ensure they succeed the first time around. They should stay committed to their goal despite the many distractions that will inevitably arise. In order to pass the NEET on your first try, you'll need to put in a lot of work. The following are some study tips that will help the candidates succeed in NEET and move forward with their plans:
Stick to the timetable, and study for at least 10 hours a day Finish the entire course load on schedule Don't forget or skim over material just because you think it isn't "essential." Prepare for the test by reading the NCERT books and taking notes. Candidates who have questions are encouraged to ask them of the person they feel most comfortable approaching right away. They can also go to question and answer websites like Quora to get their questions answered. You should never try to push away your concerns or let them sit in a drawer. Practice with dummy exams Give yourself practice exams to see where you stand. Candidates can do better on actual exams if they practice with simulated ones first. Pay closer attention to trouble spots, use old exams as practice, and cut down on study breaks. Finally, keep your spirits up and your focus on your objectives. Strategies for the 2023 NEET Exam Without Prep Classes The process of studying for an exam without any help from an instructor is difficult, but not impossible. Questions about how to pass NEET without tutoring are natural for applicants. But if they decide what they want to achieve, they won't need any outside help getting ready for it. The candidates may differ in many ways, but they should be dedicated to their goals. They must adhere rigidly to the rules of the strategy being used.
The candidate should have a firm grasp on these central areas.
Studying the Format of the NEET Exam Physical Science, Chemical Analysis, Botany, and Zoology-Based Objective Questions The exam is administered offline, using a pen and paper, and students have 180 minutes to complete the test.
Overall, the question paper contains 180 problems. There are 45 questions in each section for a total of 1,600 points. The total number of points available on the exam is 720, and each section is worth 120 of those points. For each question for which a candidate submits an incorrect response, he or she will lose one mark. Learn the Content of the NEET Exam The NEET exam is difficult, and most of the questions come straight from the NCERT curriculum. Candidate performance improves with familiarity with the NEET exam's content. A brief note on each main topic and its related topics is required. Exam preparation for the NEET should be done section by section. To protect from the elements, use these:
Subjects covered include: optics, nuclear physics, modern physics, SHM waves, and more traditional areas of physics. Organic Chemistry, the Mole Concept, Coordination Chemistry, the Periodic Table, and Chemical Bonding Biotechnology, cell biology, reproduction, ecology and the environment, plant and animal physiology, and morphology and genetics are all important fields of study in biology. Make a detailed plan for your schedule. One of the most important steps is making a plan for how you will spend your time. A minimum of 10 hours per day is required of all applicants. Every day, they need to dedicate at least two to three hours to each subject individually. Spend some time away from your studies to refresh your mind.
Abilities in time management One of the most important skills for success is the ability to manage one's time efficiently. It is essential not only in academics but in all fields of work. It's not just relevant during study time, but also when simulated exams are administered to potential candidates. In order to answer all the questions, they'll need to be time-savvy.
Don't stray too far from the readings Online, on a variety of sites, students can access a wealth of supplemental reading and learning resources. Examinees can access the downloadable resources and use them as study aids. Candidate's will gain useful information from it.
Show up for Practice Exams Mock exams are available for candidates who feel confident in their readiness for the real thing. This will help them understand the format of the exam, the weighting of different answers, how much time they have to complete each question, and where they need to focus more of their study time. Because the tests are similar to the real ones, they can get a feel for what to expect.
Pay More Attention to Weak Points Candidates' knowledge gaps span a wide range of subjects. However, avoiding such subjects is a bad idea. They need to put in more time and effort into studying those areas by doing problems and reading relevant sections of the textbook.
Taking a Break to Review Candidates should take brief notes on each study topic so that they can quickly review before the exam.
Practice with Question Papers from Last Year In order to get a feel for the kinds of questions that have been on test papers in the past, it's helpful to work through sample papers from previous years. Candidates can evaluate their progress and performance on the exam by answering these questions. For a look at some sample questions and an explanation of the answers from the NEET of years past, candidates can click on the link provided below.
Learn the Best Methods to Pass the Neet Exam in 2023 The best way to do well on your exam is to prepare like a pro. Imagine taking the exam as if you were going to war, and use every resource at your disposal to ensure you're fully prepared. Imagine yourself in the shoes of the people in charge of creating the exam questions.
Examine prior exam papers for similar questions, and spy on how your rivals are cramming for the test. Don't be shy about seeking advice, especially from those who have already passed the exam, and if something isn't working, try something else.
Topics That Will Be On The 2023 NEET Exam Students can use the data in the following table to better prepare for the NEET 2023 exam. The subjects below are physics, chemistry, and biology. Candidates taking the NEET 2023 should ensure that the books, PDFs, and other study materials they amass cover the following topics.
Examining Critical Areas for the NEETMechanics Subatomic Particles in Today's World An Overview of the Thermodynamics of SHM Waves Atomic and Nuclear Physics Optics Inorganic Chemistry Structure of the Elements To bond chemically Chemistry of Coordination Concept of a Mole Morphology Genetics Animal and plant physiology The Environment and Ecology Cell Reproduction Biotechnology Books for the 2023 NEET Exam The use of books in studying for exams is crucial. It's fine if you're familiar with the course material. The best way for candidates to get ready for the exam is to read the recommended books and study their synopses.
These are some of the best books to help you pass each individual section of the NEET exam:

Open Question Answering | CPCU® 553 Practice Exam Questions The CPCU® 553 exam questions are tough. The CPCU® 553 exam consists of 75 multiple choice questions broken up into two sections, part A and part B.
Let’s look at an example of a Part A and Part B question. Below we will breakdown two sample questions, including an answer and full explanation, from the CPCU® 553 exam. These questions are written by AssociatePI, though we do not offer an CPCU® 553 course at this time I do recommend this study material from AB Training Center. This is the study material I use; it includes practice questions much like the question and explanations in this blog.
CPCU® 553 Sample Exam Questions – Part A The no-fault insurance law in Jeff’s state allows him to sue another driver in an accident if the damages incurred by Jeff exceed his no-fault coverage limit. What type of no-fault law is this?
Modified no-fault plan Add-on plan Choice no-fault plan Compulsory auto insurance
Answer: A) Modified no-fault plan Under a modified no-fault plan, the insured adds the benefit of no-fault insurance coverage to the auto insurance policy but loses the right to sue the at-fault party that caused the accident. The insured is only allowed to sue the at-fault party if the damage caused exceeds the insured’s policy limits.
CPCU® 553 Sample Exam Questions – Part B Michelle was driving on the highway on her way to a doctor’s appointment when a deer jumped out in front of her car. Michelle swerved to the right, off of the highway, causing her car to roll over. This caused extensive damage to Michelle’s car but no bodily injury to Michelle or other drivers. What coverage under Michelle’s PAP would apply to this accident?
Comprehensive coverage UIM coverage Liability coverage Collision coverage
Answer: D) Collision coverage The damage to Part D would be covered under Michelle’s collision coverage because the damage was caused by an overturned vehicle.
Part D covers physical damage to a vehicle caused by collision. This is called collision coverage. Under collision coverage, the insurer agrees to pay for any physical damage to a covered auto resulting from a physical collision with another object, collision with another vehicle, or damage resulting from an overturn of the vehicle. An overturn, or rollover, is a type of vehicle crash in which a vehicle tips over onto its side or roof; this is covered by collision coverage.
Collision coverage is paid to the insured regardless of fault, whether the insured is at fault or not, and whether the damage is direct or accidental. If the insured is at fault, then the Part D coverage will pay the insured for the physical damage incurred to the insured’s vehicle. If the insured is not at fault, then the insured can collect damages from their personal auto policy under Part D or the insured can collect damages from the at-fault party.
Collision coverage covers all physical damage as a result of an automobile collision. This is very broad; this includes coverage for losses such as:
Colliding with a stationary object, such as a building or street light Colliding with a stationary vehicle, such as a stopped car or parked car Colliding with another moving vehicle Overturn or rollover accident
On your exam, you will be given a scenario like the one seen above; it is your job to understand what is being asked of you and how to solve or recommend a solution to the scenario.

Open Question Answering | @Squirrel.Downy if you are using TaskCompletionSource<T>, you can cancel it by invoking SetCancelled/TrySetCancelled. A more complex way is to check for every step of the Task if the CancellationToken passed to is has been cancelled - and invoke ThrowIfCancellationRequested() from the token.
To handle the cancellation properly if you await to it: just wrap with a try-catch and handle only the exception TaskCancelledException
If you're using .ContinueWith instead of awaiting to it, check if the Task is faulted - Task.IsFaulted or Task.IsCancelled

Open Question Answering | Being a Fitness Fanatic Impacts your Teeth. Find Out How.
Recently I have been treating a patient who lives a very healthy lifestyle. They put a lot of time and effort into their fitness and regularly train for competitions. They consciously make healthy eating choices and have excellent general health. Our hygienist gleams with delight when she hears that this patient doesn't just brush twice a day but flosses daily, without fail. So you would presume that this patient has a healthy mouth, right? Wrong. Today we explore common dental issues for fitness fanatics.
Problem: Sports Drinks
Rehydrating with sports drinks or energy drinks is common among those in training. While there are benefits owing to the electrolytes in sports drinks, they are highly acidic and cause the outer layer of the tooth to dissolve. This is known as dental erosion. Studies have shown that the first signs of dental erosion are evident after just 5 consecutive days of consumption. This erosion is made worse by the fact that most people tend to sip on their sports drink over the course of a training session or a game, resulting in the teeth being essentially bathed in a pool of acid for a couple of hours. To add insult to injury, sports drinks also contain sugar which causes tooth decay.
Solution: Be like Lleyton Hewitt
No, yelling at the ref won't help your teeth or your game. Did you ever notice that Lleyton used to sip from one drink bottle closely followed by another? Lleyton knew that sports drinks were bad for his smile so he drank his sports drink and then immediately after washed it away with a drink of water. If you can get away without the sports drink its even better - perhaps saving the sports drinks for game day or those long training sessions.
Problem: Open Mouth Breathing
When exercising we tend to breath heavily with an open mouth. Combine this with dehydration and we have a dry mouth which limits the greatest protector of the teeth- saliva. This lack of saliva increases the potential of sports drinks, gels, sugars and acids to harm the teeth.
Solution: Keep well Hydrated
Natural options are best. Water or coconut water. Coconut water is very hydrating and has the added benefit of being an anti-inflammatory.
Problem: Clenching
When we are concentrating intensely there is a tendency to clench the teeth together. This is often true during training. If you are constantly holding your jaw shut it puts a huge amount of stress on the teeth and the jaw joint. This commonly leads to breaking teeth and fillings, wearing the biting surface of the teeth resulting in very short teeth, jaw pain and lock-jaw.
Solution: Take Check of your Jaw
Did you know that unless you are eating that your teeth should never touch? There should always be a small gap between the teeth. Now that you're aware of this consider whether you're holding your teeth together during training. If you are then just take a moment to take check of your jaw every now and then during your training sessions until you break the habit.
Problem: Getting a Tooth Knocked Out
If you've watched your fair share of footy you are bound to have seen some teeth, smashed, pushed out of position or go flying. These types of injuries mostly affect the front teeth and require fast attention. Even with quick dental care they can require major dental treatment and a life time of close maintenance to keep these teeth.
Solution: Barrack for Collingwood
If you're not willing to change teams then wear a mouthguard. If you play a contact sport or one of the following we highly recommend wearing a mouthguard: footy, soccer, hockey and basketball. A mouthguard is a relatively small investment upfront to prevent major damage down the track.
We love that you are into living a healthy lifestyle and we want to help you maintain this without harming your teeth. Just remember that no matter how healthy your lifestyle, everyone needs to see the dentist regularly for a check up. Even the dentist has to go to the dentist every 6 months. If you're overdue then make an appointment today. |

Q: What are the benefits of puppy visits?
A: Puppies have small bladders and need more frequent breaks than adult dogs. We provide your puppy with an opportunity to get out of the house while you are away. Daily visits also play a critical role in allowing your puppy to develop good social skills.
Q: Why should I choose Lethbridge Dog Walking to pet sit?
A: Your pet will remain in their familiar, secure environment and follow their customary diet and exercise routine.

Q: Do you have dog behavioural training?
A: Lethbridge Dog Walking’s primary care giver, Hollie, received canine and feline behavioral training through her volunteer work at the Calgary Humane Society. These training courses focused on reading canine and feline body language. An animal will always give indications of what they intend to do through their body language. Being able to decipher what an animal is telling us, prior to them reacting, ensures the safety of the pets in our care.
Q: What experience do you have with pets?
A: Lethbridge Dog Walking, has employees with a variety of pet experience. We will provide the best employee to care for your bird, gerbil, hamster, rabbit, rat, fish, turtle, lizard, cat or dog. All of our pet sitters are passionate about animals and pets.
Q: What are your hours?
A: Our office is open from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Monday through Friday.
Our pet sitting hours are 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM seven days a week, 365 days a year.
Q: Do you only care for cats and dogs?
A: Dogs and cats are the most commonly cared for pets, but we are happy to care for all pets. We have cared for lizards, turtles, snakes, birds, rabbits, fish, hamsters, gerbils, rats, horses, and cows.
Q: What is the process for hiring you?
A: We first make arrangements to get together for a free consultation, where we come out and meet with you and your pet(s) to make sure everyone is comfortable. We will discuss your pet's history, go over their regular routine, talk about their unique needs, answer all of your questions, and fill out some paperwork. We will provide you with our license and insurance papers. This is also a good time to give us a copy of your house key. For Pet Sitting visits we will pick up a deposit.
Q: Are there any additional costs involved?
A: There is an additional $10 fee for statutory holidays (New Years Day, Family Day, Good Friday, Easter Monday, Victoria Day, Canada Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas Day).
Additional charges also apply to returned cheques as well as if you run out of food, litter or other supplies while on vacation. There will be an extra charge for picking up any missing pet related items.
Q: May I give my Pet Sitter/Dog Walker gratuity?
A: Absolutely! We prefer you to leave cash for your sitter at your home and leave a note so they are aware it is for them. Gift cards are also a great idea and appreciated. You may add a gratuity to your bill but taxes will have to be taken out and be reported.
Q: How much notice do you need for Pet Sitting?
A: The more notice we have the better. Holiday periods (March break, long weekends, summer, Christmas) sometimes book up months in advance. Two weeks in advance for other times of the year is usually sufficient.
Q: What is a typical Pet Sitting schedule?
A: There is no typical routine or schedule as all pets are as unique as people. When we meet we discuss what you would like us to do with your pet while we are visiting. We try to keep the routine as close to their normal routine as possible.
Q: I am worried about giving someone the keys and access to my home. How am I protected?
A: We understand your concern. We are all fully licensed and insured. All team members have had police background checks done on them.
In addition to this keys are tagged in a way that there is no way, if they were lost, anybody who found them could track them to your home.
Q: What do I need to know before hiring a pet care provider?
A: Anyone who is running a reputable business will be happy to provide you with all the answers you need in order to feel comfortable leaving your pet(s) in their care. You should know that professional dog walkers require a license to operate in Lethbridge, Alberta.
Q: What questions should I ask someone who will be caring for my pet(s)?
A: You should ask if they; are properly licensed and insured, have a clean criminal record, and are Pet First Aid Certified.
For a list of important questions to ask someone: Q: Can you visit my cat every 2-3 days instead of every day?A: It is not a good idea to leave your cat home alone unattended for extended lengths of time. Though most cats will get along fine if they have a litter box, fresh food, and water, accidents can happen. Injuries or illnesses can creep up quickly and may threaten your cat’s health if undetected. Your cat’s emotional state is as important to us as his or her need for food, water and a clean litter box; so we visit them a minimum of once per day to provide the practical basics but also to offer plenty of love and playtime so that she/he remains happy and stress-free. Daily visits help ensure the safety and security of your cat and your home. Q: Will my dog get dirty on a walk?
A: The short answer is "yes". We walk rain or shine and most dogs love to get dirty. We ask that you keep a towel handy so that we can dry your dog before we let them into your home. We return your dog to your home with a clean belly and paws.
Q: How does Lethbridge Dog Walking access my home if I'm not there?

Open Question Answering | Angular contact ball bearings are capable of withstanding both radial and axial loads.
This content appears to be related to bearings and their properties. Here’s a revised version with some minor changes for clarity:
Capability to operate at high speeds. The axial load carrying capacity increases with a larger contact angle. High precision and high-speed bearings usually have a contact angle of 15 degrees. The contact angle will increase under axial force. Accuracy level Accuracy level Angular contact ball bearings have various accuracy grades that involve both dimensional tolerances and rotational accuracy. These grades are expressed from the lowest to the highest level as P0 (normal), P6 (P6X), P5, P4, and P2 according to the ISO and JIS standards.
However, European and American brands utilize additional grades to indicate the level of accuracy. For instance, they use P3, P7, and P9 to indicate the accuracy level, with P3 being equivalent to the P6 level of the ISO and JIS standards, P7 being equivalent to the P4 level, and P9 being equivalent to the P2 level.
Characteristic Characteristic 1. Universal Matching Bearings
Universal matching bearings are designed to achieve a defined internal clearance or preload and an average load distribution when mounted against each other. This is achieved without the need for gaskets or similar devices, making them suitable for a range of applications.
Paired bearings are typically used when a single bearing has insufficient load carrying capacity in a coupling configuration, or when subjected to a combined load or an axial load acting in both directions using a back-to-back or face-to-face configuration.
2. Basic Bearing Design (Not Suitable for Universal Matching)
The basic design of a bearing is not intended for universal matching. Instead, it is designed to support a radial load, axial load or a combination of both, depending on the type of bearing. Its internal clearance and preload are fixed and cannot be adjusted to match another bearing.
Configuration for a single bearing The single row angular contact ball bearings are primarily designed to be used with only one bearing in each position. Their width and amount of protrusion are within normal tolerances. Therefore, installing two single-row angular contact ball bearings is not recommended.
Angular Contact Bearing Type Angular Contact Bearing Type Angular contact ball bearings come in three types: 7000C (∝=15°), 7000AC (∝=25°), and 7000B (∝=40°). The locking mechanism for this type of bearing is on the outer ring.
Typically, the inner and outer rings cannot be separated, but can withstand combined loads in both radial and axial directions, as well as axial loads in one direction. The ability to handle axial loads is determined by the contact angle. The higher the contact angle, the greater the bearing’s ability to handle axial loads.
These bearings limit the axial displacement of the shaft or housing in one direction. They also have a high limit speed and can handle both radial and axial loads, as well as pure axial loads. The axial load capacity is determined by the contact angle, which increases as the angle becomes greater.
Single row angular contact ball bearing Single-row angular contact ball bearings are designed to withstand axial loads in only one direction. When radial loads are applied, they generate additional axial forces, which necessitate the application of an opposite load to compensate.
Therefore, single-row bearings are typically used in pairs.
In contrast, double-row angular contact ball bearings can handle significant bidirectional combined loads, both radial and axial, as well as moment loads, with a contact angle of 30 degrees. They are primarily intended to limit the axial displacement of the shaft or casing, with radial loads being their main function.
Bearing code: 7
Paired angular contact ball bearings Paired mounted angular contact ball bearings can withstand both radial and axial bidirectional combined loads with radial loads, as well as pure radial loads.
The series configuration can only withstand axial loads in one direction, while the other two configurations can withstand axial loads in either direction.
Manufacturers typically select this type of bearing and combine them into a pair for users. Once installed, there is preloading and interference, and the ferrule and steel ball are in an axial preload state, thus improving the rigidity and rotation accuracy of the entire set of bearings as a single support.
The back-to-back configuration uses the post code DB (e.g., 70000/DB). Load lines of the back-to-back matched bearings are separated from the bearing shaft, enabling them to withstand axial loads in both directions. However, the load in each direction can only be absorbed by one bearing. Back-to-back mounted bearings provide a relatively rigid bearing configuration and can withstand overturning moments.
For face-to-face configuration, the rear code is DF (e.g., 70,000/DF). The load lines of the face-to-face matched bearings converge toward the bearing shaft.
This bearing can endure axial loads acting in both directions, but each direction’s load can only be absorbed by one bearing. However, this configuration is less stiff than the back-to-back pairing and is not suitable to bear overturning moments.
Compared to the DB configuration, the rigidity and ability to withstand overturning moments are not as good for this configuration, but it can handle bi-axial axial loads.
In a series configuration, the post code is DT (e.g., 70000/DT). Load lines are parallel, and bearings evenly share radial and axial loads. However, the bearing set can only endure axial loads in one direction. If the axial load acts in the opposite direction or if there is a composite load, a third bearing that is adjusted relative to the series-matched bearing must be added.
This configuration also allows connecting three or more bearings in series at the same support, but it can only withstand axial loads in one direction. Typically, to balance and limit the axial displacement of the shaft, the other bearing needs to be fitted with a bearing that can bear the axial load in the opposite direction.
Bearing code: 0
Load capacity The following is only for the load capacity of the mating bearing, and the basic load rating and fatigue limit load given in the product table apply only to a single bearing.
*Basic dynamic load rating, standard bearings for any configuration and SKF Explorer bearings in back-to-back or face-to-face configurations
C=1, 62xC single bearing
*Basic dynamic load rating, SKF explorer bearings for series configuration
C=2xC single bearing
*Basic rated static load
Co=2xCo single bearing
*Fatigue limit load
Pu=2xPu single bearing
Structural deformation type Structural deformation type Double-row angular contact ball bearings have the ability to support both radial and axial loads simultaneously, while limiting axial displacement on both sides of the shaft.
Compared to two-way thrust ball bearings, this type of bearing has a higher limit speed, a contact angle of 32 degrees, good rigidity, and the ability to withstand large overturning moments.
These bearings are commonly used in the front wheel hub of a car (with some models also using the same size double-row tapered roller bearings).
Double row angular contact ball bearings exhibit four types of structural deformations:
Type A: This is the standard design for bearings with an outer diameter of 90 mm or less. This type does not have a ball gap and can therefore withstand equal bidirectional axial loads. It has a lightweight fiberglass reinforced nylon 66 cage that results in low bearing temperature rise.
Type A: This is also the standard design for bearings with an outer diameter greater than 90 mm. However, this type has a ball gap on one side and is equipped with a z-steel stamping cage or a brass solid cage.
Type E: This type of bearing is a reinforced structure with a ball gap on one side. It can accommodate more steel balls, thereby increasing its carrying capacity. Both sides of the bearing are dust-proof and double-sided with seals.
Both the A-type design and the E-type double-row angular contact ball bearings can be equipped with a dust cover (non-contact) or a seal (contact) on both sides.
The sealed bearing is filled with rust-proof lithium-based grease inside, and it can operate within a temperature range of -30 to 110 degrees Celsius.
No lubrication is needed during use, and there is no need for preheating before installation.
When installing, double-row angular contact ball bearings should be used, even though the bearing can withstand two-way axial loads.
However, if there is a ball gap on one side, caution should be exercised to prevent the primary axial load from passing through the notched side of the groove. |

Search Smarty Plants rate this answer Monday - March 24, 2008 QUESTION: I have an area that is part shaded (under oak trees) and part in the sun. I would like cedar sedge in the shaded areas (some is already growing there)but I can not find where to buy it. Do you know where I can buy the plant or seeds? Also, what type of native, low growing/low maintenance grass do you recommend for the sun areas? We would like the area to be natural. We live west of Georgetown....thanks.ANSWER: Because we are often asked similar questions, we like to refer sometimes to previous answers on related subjects, instead of re-inventing the wheel. This previous question, on native grasses for sun and shade, has several excellent suggestions. The writer of that question also mentions several species of Carex that should work in your area. And we want to reinforce the suggestion in the previous question that you go to the Native American Seed website; they have an excellent online shopping service and do mail order, also.
Finally, if you still don't find what you are looking for, here is a list of native plant suppliers in Texas. There are several in the Austin area, most will list either a website or a phone number you can call to see what is in stock.

A couple of general caveats you should follow is to do the transplanting in the late fall or early spring when the temperatures are more moderate, and select your new site for the plant and prepare the hole before you dig up the plant.
I’m going to refer you to several sites that have more tips about transplant shock and how you might avoid it.

Open Question Answering | This is Part 2 of 8 in the series Getting started with the ForgeRock Identity Cloud REST API.
This guide provides examples of running the ForgeRock Identity Cloud Collection prerequisite requests using both Postman and curl
commands.
This guide assumes that you already have already prepared the ForgeRock Identity Cloud Postman Collection environment. See Part 1 - Introduction for further information.
In Postman, select the
ForgeRock Identity Cloud Postman Collection , and expand thePrerequisites section.At a high level, the REST API calls from Step 1 through to Step 2b do the following:
Step 1 : Sends a request to the Identity Cloud authenticate REST endpoint for the authentication requirements. Step 2(a) : Using the authentication requirements received in Step 1, another request is sent to the authenticate REST endpoint by adding user credentials in the body of the request. Step 2(b) : Sends one more request to the authenticate REST endpoint, responding to the choice to set up a device for Multi Factor Authentication or skip it. On completing this step, a user session is created in Identity Cloud and a session token is returned. Under
Prerequisites , clickStep 1 to study the following:The request type: POST The request URL: {{amUrl}}/json/authenticate
The Headers section With
Prerequisites >Step 1 selected, clickSend .The JSON response from the Identity Cloud authenticate REST endpoint gives the authentication requirement. In this instance, the requirements are a username and a password.
Under
Prerequisites , clickStep 2a to study the following:The request type: POST The request URL: {{amUrl}}/json/authenticate
The Body Section where the postmanAdminUser credentials, set as variable values, are sent With
Prerequisites >Step 2a selected, clickSend .The JSON response is returned from the authenticate REST endpoint, and prompts the user to either set up a device for Multi Factor Authentication or skip it.
Under
Prerequisites , clickStep 2b to study the following:The request type: POST The request URL: {{amUrl}}/json/authenticate
The Body Section where the user decides to skip the Multi Factor Authentication option. With
Prerequisites >Step 2b selected, clickSend .The Identity Cloud authentication requirements are now completed. The Identity Cloud “authenticate” REST endpoint now returns a session token for the authenticated user.
Using the session token created for the postmanAdminUser, additional administrative activities can be performed on the Identity Cloud tenant. Recall that the postmanAdminUser has the
openidm-admin
authorization role assigned.Step 3 through to Step 5 of the
Prerequisites section are used to create the following OAuth clients:Step 3 creates postmanAdminClient Step 4 creates postmanConfidentialClient Step 5 creates postmanPublicClient Under
Prerequisites , clickStep 3 and study the following:The request type: PUT The request URL: {{amUrl}}/json{{realm}}/realm-config/agents/OAuth2Client/{{postmanConfidentialClientId}}
The Headers section, hover the mouse over the adminSSOToken
variable and notice that it has the value set to the token returned in the earlier call. Before sending the REST request to create OAuth profiles in Identity Cloud, log into the Identity Cloud tenant Admin UI. In the alpha realm, go to
Applications to take note of any existing client profiles. A new application will be created later when we send the request to create a new OAuth client. With
Prerequisites >Step 3 selected, clickSend . Examine the JSON response indicating the successful creation of OAuth Client in Identity Cloud.
To confirm the creation of an OAuth client profile in Identity Cloud, log into the Identity Cloud Admin UI and go to
Applications . The new OAuth client is listed. In Postman, under
Prerequisites , examineStep 4 andStep 5 . Send the REST requests in each step to create two more OAuth clients, which will be used for various OAuth 2.0 grant types in theOAuth 2.0 Flows section of the Identity Cloud Postman Collection. To confirm the creation of two more OAuth client profiles in Identity Cloud, log into the Identity Cloud Admin UI. In the alpha realm, go to
Applications .All three OAuth client profiles created using the REST calls are listed.
Using the “postmanAdminClient” OAuth 2.0 application configured earlier, a POST request is sent to the Identity Cloud “access_token” REST endpoint for acquiring an access token with scope
fr:idm:*
. The request uses Resource Owner Password Credential (ROPC) grant type of OAuth 2.0, so the credentials of postmanAdminuser is also included in the request. Under
Prerequisites , clickStep 6 and study the following:The request type: POST The request URL: {{amUrl}}/oauth2{{realm}}/access_token
The Body section With
Prerequisites >Step 6 selected, clickSend .The “access_token” endpoint of Identity Cloud, returns an access token with scope
fr:idm:*
to the “postmanAdminClient” OAuth application. Step 7 of thePrerequisites section uses the access token obtained fromStep 6 to perform the administrative task of creating a user in the alpha realm of the Identity Cloud Admin UI. Under
Prerequisites , clickStep 7 and study the following:The request type: POST The request URL:{{platformUrl}}/openidm/managed/alpha_user?_action=create
The Body section (some attribute values of users are picked up from the variables configured earlier, some are randomly generated). With
Prerequisites >Step 7 selected, clickSend . Examine the JSON response indicating the successful creation of a user account.
To confirm that the new user was created, log into the Identity Cloud Admin UI, and go to
Identities >Manage .The new Identity Cloud user who was created using the REST API is listed.
Besides Postman, the Identity Cloud REST APIs can also be invoked using curl.
This section of the guide revisits a couple of steps from the Prerequisites section of the ForgeRock Identity Postman Collection using the widely used curl command.
Use the OS command line terminal to run two examples of curl command below to:
Request an access token with scope
fr:idm:*
from the Identity Cloud “access token” endpoint using the OAuth ROPC grant type (Step 6 of ForgeRock Identity Cloud Postman Collection). Use the access token obtained above to create a new ForgeRock Identity Cloud user (Step 7 of ForgeRock Identity Cloud Postman Collection).
To run the curl commands:
Make a request for an access token. The backward slash indicates that the command continues in the next line. Don’t forget to replace the
https
link with your Identity Cloud tenant URL.$ curl \ --header 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded ' \ --data 'grant_type=password' \ --data 'username=postmanAdminUser' \ --data 'password=Rock5tar10$' \ --data 'scope=fr:idm:*' \ --data 'client_id=postmanAdminClient' \ --data 'client_secret=postmanClientSecret' \ 'https://<id_cloud_tenant>/am/oauth2/realms/root/realms/alpha/access_token'

Open Question Answering | Welcome to our comprehensive analysis of the changing landscape of real estate costs in various regions of California. Over the years, California has experienced significant shifts in its real estate market, influenced by a multitude of factors. In this article, we will delve into the historical trends, regional variations, and key drivers that have shaped the cost of real estate in the Golden State.
Factors Influencing Real Estate Costs in California Understanding the factors that impact real estate costs is crucial in comprehending how they have changed over time. California’s real estate market is influenced by a complex interplay of supply and demand, population growth, economic conditions, and government policies. Let’s explore these factors in more detail:
Supply and Demand Dynamics Supply and demand dynamics play a pivotal role in shaping real estate costs. As population centers grow, the demand for housing increases, putting upward pressure on prices. Conversely, during economic downturns or periods of low population growth, demand may decrease, leading to a decline in real estate costs.
Population Growth and Urbanization California has witnessed substantial population growth over the years, particularly in major metropolitan areas. This influx of residents has fueled the demand for housing, resulting in significant price escalations. Additionally, urbanization has led to increased competition for limited land resources, further influencing real estate costs.
Economic Conditions The state’s economic conditions, including factors such as employment rates, income levels, and the overall health of industries, significantly impact real estate costs. During periods of economic prosperity, individuals have greater purchasing power, driving up demand and subsequently increasing prices.
Government Policies and Regulations Government policies and regulations also shape the real estate landscape in California. Measures such as zoning laws, building codes, and tax incentives can influence both supply and demand, contributing to fluctuations in real estate costs over time.
Historical Analysis of Real Estate Costs in California To gain a comprehensive understanding of how real estate costs have evolved in California, let’s embark on a historical analysis, examining different time periods:
Past 10 Years Over the past decade, real estate costs in California have experienced significant fluctuations. Following the global financial crisis in 2008, the state’s real estate market suffered a severe downturn, resulting in a decline in property values. However, as the economy recovered, the market rebounded, witnessing substantial price increases in subsequent years.
Past 20 Years Zooming out to a 20-year timeframe, we observe a more nuanced picture of real estate costs in California. The late 1990s and early 2000s saw a period of rapid growth, characterized by soaring prices and a booming market. However, the housing bubble burst in the mid-2000s, leading to a significant downturn and the subsequent recession. The recovery since then has been gradual but steady, with real estate costs gradually climbing back up.
Regional Variations in Real Estate Costs Real estate costs in California exhibit notable variations across different regions. Let’s explore some of the major metropolitan areas and their unique characteristics:
San Francisco Bay Area The San Francisco Bay Area has long been known for its exorbitant real estate prices. The region’s booming tech industry, coupled with limited housing supply, has created a fiercely competitive market. As a result, home prices have skyrocketed, making it one of the most expensive areas in the state.
Los Angeles Los Angeles, with its vibrant entertainment industry and desirable coastal location, also commands high real estate costs. The city’s diverse neighborhoods offer a range of housing options, catering to different income levels. However, the demand for prime locations and limited inventory continue to contribute to elevated prices.
San Diego San Diego, renowned for its beautiful beaches and pleasant climate, attracts both locals and out-of-state buyers. The city’s strong job market and thriving tourism industry have contributed to a consistent demand for housing, leading to steady price growth.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) Q: What are the main factors affecting real estate costs in California? A: Several factors impact real estate costs in California, including supply and demand dynamics, population growth, economic conditions, and government policies.
Q: How have real estate costs changed in the San Francisco Bay Area? A: The San Francisco Bay Area has seen a significant increase in real estate costs over the years, driven by the booming tech industry and limited housing supply.
Q: Are real estate costs in California expected to continue rising? A: While predicting future trends is challenging, the demand for housing in California remains high, suggesting that real estate costs may continue to rise, albeit potentially at a more moderate pace.
Conclusion In conclusion, the cost of real estate in different areas of California has undergone substantial changes over time. Factors such as supply and demand dynamics, population growth, economic conditions, and government policies have all played significant roles in shaping the real estate market. Understanding these dynamics and regional variations is crucial for those navigating the California real estate landscape. As the state continues to evolve, it will be fascinating to witness how real estate costs further transform in the years to come. |
Open Question Answering | This is the fifth year that George Washington has personally appeared at Harbor Ridge, a middle school in Gig Harbor, Washington. Students prepared a welcome sign that reflects their enthusiasm to hear from the first president. They knew they could ask any questions they wanted of him. I gave five presentations (a combination of seven classes) to eighth graders as part of their American History studies. Each of the five groups had a different personality, and they put George to work with their questions. It was exhilarating!
Preparation Before my visit, the teachers at Harbor Ridge Middle School submitted questions that their student wanted to ask George. Their primary interest was George himself. Knowing their questions in advance allowed me to craft a presentation just for them. And planning my visit in conjunction with their American History curriculum allowed the students to prepare, and consider questions for me that they might not otherwise have thought about.
In the Classroom
I began each presentation, dressed as General Washington, by asking them what they knew about me. They mentioned various facts about his family, education, social status and personality, and these were listed on a whiteboard. Then George filled in what they didn’t know about him. All of a sudden, George Washington became a real person, just like them. He had once been their age, and like any fourteen-year-old, he was awkward, shy, and fearful of being laughed at and made fun of.
Here are some of the questions we explored:
Was Washington wealthy or poor? Most thought he was wealthy and privileged, when actually, he was both. Was he from a two-parent family? Most thought he was from a typical, two parent home, when the correct answer was “Yes and no.” Then General Washington filled in the missing information, giving them more context about my life. In history—like many areas of life—context is everything.
Washington’s Family Life Washington’s father married and had two sons, and then his first wife died. His father remarried, had six children with his second wife. George was the eldest of the second wife’s children, and when George was eleven, his father died. George’s father was a wealthy farmer and entrepreneur, and his sons would all have been well educated and wealthy—if their father had lived. But the bulk of wealth went to his two older half-brothers by primogeniture. Those older brothers had already been educated at a prominent school in England, something George had hoped for too. But his mother was left with a small farm, and chose not to remarry, so from age eleven, he was raised in poverty by a single mom. This was a surprise to the students at Harbor Ridge. So you see, context is everything.
In the photo above, the young lady on the right is five feet tall, about the height of George when he was eleven, while the young man on the left is about six feet tall and about the height of George when he was fifteen. During those four years, George grew more than twelve inches, but his mother could not afford to buy him new clothes. She had to let out the clothing on the right to fit the body on the left. George asked the student on the left: How are you feeling about wearing the smaller, older clothing? He answered: Not good. George gave some context with the next Question: Oh, by the way, wearing older clothes that are not in style and don’t fit, also includes the three or four socially important dances throughout the year where you meet young people from all around northern Virginia. Now how do you feel about being poorly dressed and the object of glances from those who are much better dressed? Answer: Awkward. Embarrassed. Question: Laughed at? Made fun of? Answer: Silence.
Historical Interpretation I have not found stories from Washington’s social life as a youth in anything I have read. Was the context true? Yes! His father died, he was part of the second family, a single mom raised him in poverty, his lack of education dogged him throughout his life, he was shy and awkward, and the local dances provided social opportunities. Fear of being laughed at? That detail is not recorded, but what do you think? This is part of historical interpretation. The historical record provides a lot of information about George Washington’s life, and life in the colonies during his lifetime. My reading of more than one hundred books, visits to historical locations, and interviews with various authors, historians, and other specialists—all this informs the way I interpret and present Washington’s life.
After Class After each presentation at the Harbor Ridge Middle School, the students came up to get selfies and ask individual questions. This young man had a couple of questions about Martha.
George accommodated him and then shared that five-foot-tall Martha would stand on her tip toes, grab his coat lapels and pull him down to get his attention, and then she would say “Now listen here old man”! The students’ individual questions cover many topics, and reflect a strong interest in Washington and the founding of America. Likewise, the topics requested by teachers vary—some ask me to focus on the French and Indian War and Washington’s early military experience. One group wanted me to talk about agriculture and gardening at Mount Vernon, as Washington was renowned in his day for his expertise and experimentation with agriculture and animal husbandry.

Suggested October 2023 C++ Do…While Loop With Examples
The do-while loop iterates a section of the C++ program several times. In the do-while loop, test expression is added at the bottom of the loop. The loop body comes before the test expression. That’s why the loop body must execute for once, even when test expression evaluates to false in the first test.
In this C++ tutorial, you will learn:
When to use a do-while loop?The do-while loop should be used when the number of iterations is not fixed, and the loop must execute for at least once. The C++ compiler executes the loop body first before evaluating the condition. That means the loop must return a result. This is the case even when the test condition evaluates to a false on the first evaluation. Since the loop body has already been executed, it must return the result.
SyntaxThe basic syntax of C++ do while loop is as follows:
do{ }while(condition);The condition is test expression. It must be true for the loop to execute. The { and } mark the body of do while loop. It comes before the condition. Hence, it is executed before the condition.
How do-while loop works?C++ Do while flow chart
Flow Chart Explanation:
Start of do while loop.
The body of do while loop.
The test expression or condition to be evaluated.
If the test expression is true, the C++ compiler executed the body of do while loop.
If the test expression is false, the C++ compiler executes the statements after the loop body.
Statements that come after the loop body.
Example 1using namespace std; int main() { int x = 1; do { cout << “X is: ” << x << endl; x = x + 1; } while (x < 5); return 0; }
Output:
Here is a screenshot of the code:
Code Explanation:
Including the iostream header file in our code. It will allow us to read from and write to the console.
Including the std namespace so as to use its classes and functions without calling it.
Calling the main() function inside which the logic of the program should be added. The { marks start of body of the main() function.
Declaring an integer variable x and assigning it a value of 1.
Creating a do-while loop. The { marks start of loop body.
To print the value of variable x alongside other text on the console. The endl is a C++ keyword meaning end line.
Increasing value of x by 1 after every iteration.
End of the loop body. Test expression has been added to the end of the loop body. It tests whether the value of x is less than 5.
The main() function should return a value if the program runs fine.
End of the body of the main() function.
Example 2using namespace std; int main() { int num, sum = 0; do {
cout << “Enter a number: “;
sum += num;
} while (num != 0); cout << “Sum is ” << sum;
return 0; }
Output:
Here is a screenshot of the code:
Code Explanation:
Including the iostream header file in our code. It will allow us to read from and write to the console.
Including the std namespace so as to use its classes and functions without calling it.
Calling the main() function inside which the logic of the program should be added.
The { marks start of body of the main() function.
Declaring two integer variables, num, and sum. The variable sum has been initialized to 0.
Creating a do-while loop. The { marks start of loop body.
Printing the text “Enter a number:” on the console.
Adding the value of num to value of sum and storing result in variable sum.
The } marks the end of the loop body. The test expression has been added to the end of the loop body. It tests whether the value entered by the user to make sure it’s not 0. The != is the not equal to the operator. If the user enters a 0, the loop should terminate.
Printing value of variable sum on the console alongside other text.
The main() function should return a value if the program runs fine.
End of the body of the main() function.
Nested Do While LoopIn C++, it is possible for us to create one do-while loop inside another do-whole loop. This results into a nested do-while loop.
Syntax do{ statement(s) do{ statement(s) }while(condition); statement(s) }while(condition);The first do statement denotes the do part of the outer do-while loop.
The second do statement denotes the do part of the inner do-while loop.
The first while statement denotes the test condition for the inner loop.
The second while statement denotes the test condition for the outer loop.
How Nested Do While Loop WorksNested do while loop works as follows:
Step 1: The initialization is executed first and once.
Step 2: The statements (the do) is executed once.
Step 3: Test expression is evaluation by flow control.
Step 4: If true, inner loop is executed.
Step 5: Updating statement(s) are updated.
Step 6: Process runs repeatedly until test expression becomes false.
Step 7: When test expression becomes false, inner loop is exited and control jumps to outer loop.
Step 8: Test condition is evaluated again.
Step 9: If true, statement(s) are executed to return false.
Step 10: Execution of loop stops and control jumps to statements after loop.
Exampleusing namespace std; int main() { int a = 1; do { int b = 1; do { cout << a << “n”; b++; } while (b <= 3); a++; } while (a <= 3); }
Output:
Here is a screenshot of the code:
Code Explanation:
Including the iostream header file in our code. It will allow us to read from and write to the console.
Including the std namespace so as to use its classes and functions without calling it.
Calling the main() function inside which the logic of the program should be added. The { marks start of body of the main() function.
Declaring an integer variable a and assigning it a value of 1.
Creating the outer do-while loop. The { marks start of outer loop body.
Declaring an integer variable b and assigning it a value of 1.
Creating the inner do-while loop. The { marks start of inner loop body.
To print the value of variable a on the console. The “n” is a new line character that moves mouse cursor to next line.
Increasing value of b by 1 after every iteration.
End of the inner loop body. Test expression has been added to the end of the loop body. It tests whether the value of b is less than or equal to 5.
Increasing value of a by 1 after every iteration.
End of the outer loop body. Test expression has been added to the end of the loop body. It tests whether the value of a is less than or equal to 3.
End of the body of the main() function.
Summary
The do-while loop runs a section of code several times.
It should be used when the number of iterations is not fixed.
In the do-while loop, the loop body comes before test expression.
The loop body executes for at least once, even if the test expression becomes false.
This loop should be used when the number of iterations is not fixed.
Do while loop can run any number of times, provided the condition is true.
The condition is evaluated once after every iteration.
The outcome of the evaluation of the condition determines the action to be taken.
If the condition is true, the loop executed the body.
Execution of loop halts immediately the condition evaluates to a false.
Since the do while loop body has already been executed, it must return the result.

Directions: (Q. 6 to 10) Case II: Read the passage given below and answer the following questions. In an assembly of atoms or molecules, a solid phase is formed whenever the interatomic attractive forces significantly exceed the disruptive thermal forces and thus restrict the mobility of atoms, forcing them into more or less fixed positions. From energy considerations, it is evident that in such solids the atoms or molecules will always attempt to assume highly ordered structures which are characterised by symmetry. Depending on the nature of the active interatomic forces, all solids may be subdivided into the following categories: Ionic solids: These solids consist of positively and negatively charged ions arranged in a regular fashion throughout the solid. These solids are very hard and brittle, have very high melting points and have high enthalpies of vaporisation, e.g., NaCl, MgO, KCl, LiCl, etc. Covalent solids: In these solids, the constituent particles are atoms which are linked together by a continuous system of covalent bonds. These bonds are strong and directional in nature. The covalent crystals are hard, have high melting points, are poor conductors of electricity. Diamond is a typical example of covalent solids. Metallic solids: In these solids, the constituent particles are positive ions immersed in a sea of mobile electrons. Metallic solids may be hard as well as soft. They are good conductors of heat and electricity e.g., common metals such as nickel, copper and alloys. Molecular solids: In these the constituent particles are molecules. The molecules are held together by dispersion forces or London forces, dipole-dipole forces or hydrogen bonds. In the following questions (Q. No. 6-10), a statement of assertion followed by a statement of reason is given. Choose the correct answer out of the following choices on the basis of the above passage

Directions: (Q. 11 to 15) Case III: Read the passage given below and answer the following questions from 11 to 15. The adjective, 'crystalline' when applied to solids, implies an ideal crystal in which the structural units, termed as unit cells, are repeated regularly and indefinitely in three dimensions in space. The unit cell, containing at least one molecule, has a definite orientation and shape defined by the translational vectors, a, b and c. The unit cell therefore has a definite volume, V that contains the atoms and molecules necessary for generating the crystal. Every crystal can be classified as a member of one of the seven possible crystal systems or crystal classes that are defined by the relationships between the individual dimensions, a, b and c of the unit cell and between the individual angles, \[\alpha \], \[\beta \] and \[\gamma \] of the unit cell. The structure of the given crystal may be assigned to one of the 7 crystal systems, to one of the 14 Bravais lattices, and to one of the 230 space groups. These uniquely define the possible ways of arranging atoms in a three-dimensional solid. Based on these observations, seven crystal systems were identified: triclinic, monoclinic, trigonal or rhombohedral, tetragonal, hexagonal, rhombic or orthorhombic and cubic.
The crystal system of a compound with unit cell dimensions, a = 0.387 nm, b = 0.387 nm and c = 0.504 nm and \[\alpha =\beta =90{}^\circ \]and \[\gamma =120{}^\circ \]is

Directions: (Q. 21 to 25) Case V: Read the passage given below and answer the following questions from 21 to 25. In an ideal crystal, there must be regular repeating arrangement of the constituting particles and its entropy must be zero at absolute zero temperature. However, it is impossible to obtain an ideal crystal and it suffers from certain defects called imperfections. In pure crystal, these defects arises either due to disorder or dislocation of the constituting particles from their normal positions or due to the movement of the particles even at absolute zero temperature. Such defects increase with rise in temperature. In addition to this, certain defects arise due to the presence of some impurities. Such defects not only modify the existing properties of the crystalline solids but also impart certain new characteristics to them.

Open Question Answering | Despite what many people may think, it’s not just hair and skin “down there.” Vaginas are made up of an intricate system of muscles that support women throughout the many activities and experiences they have in their lives. While pregnancy and childbirth are not the only things that strain those muscles, they are definitely among the most taxing. That’s why we want to discuss what happens to the vagina before and after childbirth.
Surprise, It’s Not Just Your Vagina! Introducing...the Pelvic Floor Muscles Before we get into the specifics, it’s important to understand the relationship between the vagina and the pelvic floor and what happens during pregnancy and birth. The belly, uterus, vagina, and vulva will be swollen and sore and will heal over six weeks. You will notice it getting a little bit better every day and the blood and discharge will start to lessen slowly over two to six weeks. If anything becomes worse over time instead of better, be it more swollen, more painful, or with even more blood and discharge, then you will want to check with your doctor.
Most of the concerns that women have after the first six weeks of healing stem from the pelvic floor muscles, which is a set of muscles underneath the bladder, uterus and anus. These muscles are what help control things like laxity, incontinence and prolapse.
3 Common Changes in the Vagina Before and After Birth Laxity One of the most common changes that women report after birth is feeling like things are looser down there. In fact, 48% of women worry about laxity before they even get pregnant, and it’s a top concern regarding the vagina before and after birth.
Some women go as far as considering having a cesarean section to avoid it when, in reality, it’s a fixable problem, just like rebuilding any other muscle in the body. The good news is that laxity is normal, and there are steps you can take to minimize it.
Before Pregnancy: The pelvic floor muscles are at a woman’s baseline amount of strength, which provides the squeeze and strength she’s used to.After Pregnancy: During pregnancy, the excess weight from the baby and pressure giving birth causes the muscles to expand, creating a sense of laxity when that additional stretch is no longer needed.Solution: By doing pelvic floor strengthening exercises post-pregnancy, women can get back to the squeeze they’re used to, and strengthening before pregnancy can speed up the process even faster!Incontinence (urine, fecal, gas) Bladder leakage is a problem that you may face after birth. Considering the fact that 66% of women experience some amount of bladder leakage, it’s clear that this is not just a little old lady problem.
Women of all ages experience urine, fecal and gas incontinence as a result of weak pelvic floor muscles. Pregnancy is one of the main culprits that can play a factor.
Before Pregnancy: The bladder and anus are both supported by the pelvic floor muscles, which will be at their normal amount of strength before pregnancy. This strength deteriorates over time without proper strengthening routines, so for some, this “normal amount” may already be weakened.After Pregnancy: The pelvic floor muscles have been stretched and put to work holding the baby throughout pregnancy and then while giving birth. Post-pregnancy, this results in laxity and weakening of the pelvic floor muscles, which means less strength to support the organs that are there. This can result in difficulty holding back urine, gas and fecal matter.Solution: The pelvic floor muscle is just like any other muscle in the body in that it can be strengthened and rehabilitated. By doing pelvic floor exercises before and after pregnancy, women can prevent and recover their pelvic floor strength, reducing or eliminating incontinence entirely.Prolapse If you’re experiencing a heavy feeling in your vaginal area, there’s a good chance you’re experiencing pelvic organ prolapse. 75% of women have some degree of pelvic organ prolapse, also referred to as POP. POP occurs when the organs normally supported by the pelvic floor start to descend due to a weakening of the muscles.
Pushing is a big part of giving birth, and the weight over an extended period on the body can stress the pelvic floor and cause descent.
Psst. Take our pelvic floor quiz to find out if you’re dealing with a weak pelvic floor! Before Pregnancy: A large portion of women are already living with some degree of pelvic organ prolapse. Most don’t realize it until they get to more serious stages in the diagnosis, sometimes when the organs have started to leave the body.After Pregnancy: Through pregnancy, more strain is put on the body and the pelvic floor muscles specifically. This can accelerate any potential POP that may already be occurring, causing more discomfort and a feeling of heaviness for the woman.Solution: During the earlier stages of POP, effective pelvic floor training can address and reverse POP. More severe stages of POP may need to be addressed through other surgical alternatives. The best way to prevent POP is by doing effective pelvic floor strengthening before pregnancy and prioritizing it once you’re cleared for exercise post-baby.How You Can Strengthen Your Vagina Before Birth Kegels are scientifically proven to address pelvic floor weakness and the large number of symptoms that occur as a result.
In the past, women were limited to traditional kegels, which doctors prescribe for 100+ minutes a week just to maintain the pelvic floor strength. If they looked for other options to address the vagina before and after birth, they mostly found expensive, unsafe or ineffective alternatives.
Fortunately, Kegelbell was created as a solution for those women. It’s the first externally weighted pelvic floor training device and the heaviest option on the market. Since the weight is held outside the body, women can lift more weight comfortably. This translates to more muscle strength in less time.
Plus, the time commitment required to see results with Kegelbell is surprisingly slim. Women only need to use Kegelbell for five minutes three times a week in muscle-building mode or once a week in maintenance mode. The best part is that it can be done in the comfort and privacy of your own home or shower. Also, with 16 levels, the muscle-building journey can be personalized for each woman.
Don’t Ignore the Important Muscles “Down There.” Try Kegelbell Today Whether you’ll be delivering soon or have already experienced childbirth, you can minimize uncomfortable vaginal symptoms from the comfort of your home. For the best way to strengthen your pelvic floor and vagina before and after birth, look no further than Kegelbell. Shop Kegelbell today to learn what moms (and future moms) are raving about. |

Open Question Answering | On June 19th, 2019, I received an email from an emergency room doctor who has just begun Jiu Jitsu. He found my blog about strokes in relation to Jiu Jitsu and had some great questions that I wanted to address for the entire BJJ community.
“Hi Chris,
“I’m a BJJ newbie that’s emailing you with a question in response to your very illuminating series of posts you wrote on Medium regarding BJJ and stroke. Thank you for writing this all, it’s been incredibly informative. I’m an ER doc that’s been doing BJJ for about a month — I really like it. After I got guillotined for the first time I became somewhat concerned about the risks of injury from BJJ — it seemed pretty logical that you could get a carotid or vertebral dissection from this sport based on the strength of the choke/ways you fall. I did some research on this and came to your series of posts. I had two questions I was hoping to ask you:” Q1A: Based on the stories you’ve gathered, does it seem like the major damage is being done by holding out too long during the choke, or have you heard of stories where this is happening during even mild chokes? My Answer To Q1A: In my personal experience, I am unable to say for certain which choke initially caused my carotid artery (CA) to tear. I also absolutely cannot tell you how long I walked around with a tear in my carotid artery as no one knows that for sure. However, the doctors said my clot (which was on the tear) was significantly large even after they administered the TPA drug, which is also why my medical team decided to put a stent in my neck. In my personal opinion, I would say that I probably tore the artery many weeks prior to my stroke and it never fully repaired due to continued practicing after the injury occurred. All that said, I can confirm that the direct cause of my stroke was holding out too long on the North / South choke, which ultimately shot the clot to my brain. This instantly led to my stroke.
Looking back, I now recognize that I had experienced right side blurry vision after a practice one night, which I believe was a few months prior to my stroke. Although I did mention this to a teammate, we brushed it off as a small concussion. While these symptoms occurred a bit before the stroke, I also experienced other symptoms only days prior to the stroke. Some of these included a sore throat and other symptoms typically ascribed to the common cold or flu. Whatever these potential symptoms may mean, one certain fact is that the clot was on the CA prior to the North/South Choke I mentioned previously. I got stuck in this choke during “rolling” with my teammate Rob Smith of Milwaukee, WI. I did not tap because I was breathing and I thought I might get out of the choke if he adjusted and I gained some room to move. Since I was drilling and practicing a significant number of back take drills and choke transitions from the back take during the months prior to the stroke, I think it is very likely that the amount of chokes and choke escape during the month prior to my stroke caused my injury and prevented it from fully healing.
In other cases of stroke related to the sport, however, the condition was not related to chokes at all. Some cases were caused from being stacked up too much, and even others were from a hard cross-face. In the case of 19-year-old Ronaldo Silva in Brazil, a stroke was caused simply from hanging pull-ups with a GI, which may have been caused by the hinge back on the neck. Doctors still cannot say for certain what caused Silva’s stroke, according to the Dream Project, but my guess is that he had a tear which went undetected. We are finding that modern medicine has struggled to identify tears in young patients, which is due in part to the fact that they are not ordering the necessary tests. Our studies to date have found that imaging without contrast is missing most dissections in BJJ and even non-BJJ related injuries. In other words, they are looking for a clot when the patients come to the ER, where they should be looking for a tear in young healthy jiu-jitsu practitioners with stroke like symptoms.
Although many of these instances result from the patient trying to fight out of the choke, other cases were just from the repetitions in practice (example, Duane & Erik). As of now, we are finding that CADs and VADs are the cause of over 80% of the strokes we have found in Jiu Jitsu athletes.
Q1B:“I am assuming if this happened in the latter instance, there must havebeen some significant preceding neck injury that led to the dissection.” My Answer to Q1B: In my case, this is true. However, we cannot say for sure at this point regarding these incidents at large.
Q2A:.“For a person that’s just starting to spar, what should I be doing or saying to my training partners to lower this risk? I’m thinking the bestthings that you can do are telling your partner to go easy on the neck and that you should tap out early to any major choke.” My Answer to Q2A: To be honest, most of the coaches I have spoken with about this subject matter have really been unaware that anything like this could happen. Head coach of Gracie Farmington Valley BJJ, Jay Bell is one of the coaches who admitted that he was unaware that this could happen in our sport, however he has taken personal action to spread awareness to this topic after one of his students also suffered a massive accident on the mats:
JiuJitsu is a relatively new martial art /(sport), so many of the cases weare currently discovering are not well-documented. However, many participants are reaching out to me with their stories because they are making connections with the topic to their own experiences. Onemajor way to help prevent prevent strokes in BJJ is to share the experiences and data (like this article) as we learn of them with other trainers, students, and doctors. You can help your school and ER by sharing our stories and learning from them.
I would guess that the majority, maybe even 95%, of the BJJ community is unaware that something like this could even happen. This belief was reinforced when I recently traveled to speak at the Arizona BJJ Coaches conference to bring awareness to the coaches, they had no idea.
We are currently working to spread the word even more.
In fact, a fellow survivor, Black Belt and ERPA Josh Verra, and I are planning to speak to more coaches and communities to bring awareness to this risk.
Everyone in the BJJ community should remember that they always have the ability to tap out and based on the knowledge and stories I am working to share with the community, I would recommend choosing to tap sooner rather than risking these ranges. Other ways to protect yourself might include asking yourself; “Do I know how to escape chokes?” If you do not, you might think about letting your training partner know that you are not comfortable rolling with chokes because you do not know the escapes yet. Otherwise, you might really focus your time and energy on learning new ways to break collar grips, pay closer attention to where you leave your neck, and instead of trying to focus on submissions in the white belt years, focus your studies on escaping chokes, or better yet, preventing them.
As I mentioned previously, Josh Verra and I have been accumulating as much data as we can on this subject because to date there has been a limited number of medical studies on this topic. The following three links are the only medical reports that we have found thus far:
Of course, in addition to the above medical studies, we have compiled a list of over 70 cases and are documenting many of the interviews on my Youtube Channel, which can be found at the following link:
My experience has led me to a desire to share the risks of BJJ. My hope in sharing my story and the stories of others is not to prevent the practice of the sport, but to promote safe practice. BJJ can truly enhance the lives of its students, but we should always be aware of the risks and prevention strategies to maintain a full and healthy lifestyle.

Open Question Answering | Modern impressions of the word ‘chemical’ are often negative. Consumers often express disgust, fear, and other negative emotions. Data suggests that consumers have many misconceptions about chemicals, which drive negative feelings about chemicals. Some of the confusion may stem from how the food industry characterizes chemicals. For example, an ingredient deck can be misleading. Consumers may perceive a shortlist of only four or five ingredients to be a cleaner food, but in fact, there are harmful substances that only require four or five ingredients, and there are healthy foods that include dozens of ingredients.
Lack of education Media fear-mongering Mixed messaging Poor communication from scientists to consumers Returning to the basics can help illustrate a better picture of the role of chemicals in everyday life. Some of the worst purveyors of risk assessment are the scientists themselves. It is crucial to differentiate between hazard assessment and risk assessment. Creating an approach to help scientists articulate the risks to consumers could go a long way toward reducing the growing levels of chemophobia. In this blog, we will discuss:
An Example of Chemophia: What is MSG? How Do You Identify Chemical Risk? What Drives Consumer Trust? What Are Some Commonly Asked Questions About Chemophobia and Risk?
An Example of Chemophia: What is MSG? For years, scientists considered the four tastes to be salt, sweet, bitter, and sour. In 2002, scientists determined that human tongues also had taste receptors for umami, often described as a savory taste resulting from the consumption of glutamate. Japanese scientist Dr. Kikunae Ikeda first described umami in 1908. He developed a crystalline form of the flavor and filed a patent for the umami flavor, known as monosodium glutamate (MSG). However, in the 1960s, many argued that MSG was unhealthy and even dangerous, despite the lack of research. For years, people associated MSG with adverse health outcomes. But MSG is naturally present in many foods people eat, including tomatoes left to ripen on the vine. Researchers conducted tests on the umami measurements and found the highest concentrations in the center and the seeds of the tomato. The umami amounts increase when the tomato is allowed to ripen naturally on the vine. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the World Health Organization (WHO), and the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) assert that MSG is safe to consume. Yet significant portions of the public still have persistent concerns that MSG is a toxic or unhealthy ingredient.
How Do You Identify Chemical Risk? Many believe that risk is the result of a hazard or how people perceive a hazard, but a better way to describe risk would be:
Risk = Hazard x Exposure FSMA training categorizes risk as the occurrence or the likelihood of occurrence multiplied by the severity of the hazard. However, while the probability of a hazard occurring may be very low, there is no such thing as zero risk. As a result, manufacturers must have a plan for assessing and managing risk. To handle risks effectively, manufacturers need to understand the difference between chemical risk assessments, risk management, and risk communication.
What Is a Chemical Risk Assessment? Science may start the conversation, but many people and institutions are involved in the entire risk paradigm. There is no such thing as zero risk, but often risk assessment is simple mathematics. If the likelihood of exposure to a hazardous chemical is low, then the risk is also low, even if the chemical is very hazardous.
What Is Risk Management? Manufacturers must take action if they deem a product unsafe. Global regulatory compliance helps determine the best course of action. Regulatory bodies help manufacturers decide whether to recall the product and under which class. Products can be safe and comply with regulations but not meet customer specifications. Some manufacturers make decisions based on consumer perceptions even when a product meets specifications. However, pulling a product based on perceptions surrounding chemicals could perpetuate myths about products’ safety.
What Is Risk Communication? Determining what and how to communicate can be a challenge. Manufacturers may struggle with identifying who the audience should be. Sometimes, no communication is the answer. Another point to consider is that food industry workers are also consumers and vital in communicating risk. Having a more robust conversation with employees and food industry workers can nurture a healthier food safety culture.
What Drives Consumer Trust? The Center for Food Integrity found that shared values are three to five times more important to build trust than demonstrating competence. Consumers want to feel those involved in the food industry have the same values as them. To gain consumer trust, experts need to effectively communicate shared values to connect with consumers. It is important for consumers to understand that leaders in the food industry care about their safety and wellbeing and are actively working to protect them.
What Are Some Commonly Asked Questions About Chemophobia and Risk? Q: What are some recommendations for addressing the questions of “the dirty dozen” pesticide residues on produce? A: It’s essential to find a way to communicate risk to those without a science background to reframe the concern. The EPA sets limits for compliance, but many may not trust the EPA. Help people understand the units of measurement. For example, one part per trillion equates to one second per every 32,000 years. Examining the residue amounts found in the context of safe levels established by organizations like the EPA and WHO helps to illustrate the actual risk level.
Q: What about Proposition 65? Is it helpful or harmful? A: Proposition 65 is a Right-to-Know law. It has more to do with the right to know what ingredients are included and what is associated with a given product rather than risk. The California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment has often applied Proposition 65 using a precautionary approach rather than a risk-based approach.
Q: What are manufacturers doing to successfully manage risk assessment and messaging about labeling and chemical composition? A: Labeling laws shape the messaging from manufacturers. The real danger of chemophobia is diluting the messaging about actual chemical safety risks. It’s crucial to focus on these real risks to address making food safe for everyone. Many of the most potent toxins are naturally occurring and organic. However, consumers may weigh these risks far more heavily than deserved when messaging focuses on far less risky hazards. |
Open Question Answering | Exercise 4.5.1 Let $p$ be a monic polynomial over the field $F$, and let $f$ and $g$ be relatively prime polynomials ovef $F$. Prove that the g.c.d. of $pf$ and $pg$ is $p$.
I proved this in more generality as part of Exercise 7 of the previous section. That makes me think that was not the solution they were looking for. Or maybe they want a proof here using prime factorization. Here are both proofs.
Solution 1: We use the definition of g.c.d. in terms of ideals. Since gcd$(f,g)=1$, the ideal generated by $f$ and $g$ is the same as the ideal generated by $1$. In other words $fF[x]+gF[x]=F[x]$. Thus $$pfF[x]+pgF[x]=pF[x].$$ Since $p$ is monic by assumption, it follows that $p$ satisifes the definition of gcd$(f,g)$ in $F[x]$.
Solution 2: We use the comments at the top of page 137. Factor into primes $f=f_1^{r_1}\cdots f_j^{r_j}$, $g=g_1^{s_1}\cdots g_k^{s_k}$ and $p=p_1^{t_1}\cdots p_{\ell}^{t_{\ell}}$. Since g.c.d.$(f,g)=1$ none of the $f_i$’s equal any of the $g_i$’s. Thus the common factors of $pf$ and $pg$ are exactly the $p_i$’s. In other words the prime factorizations are $$fp=f_1^{r_1}\cdots f_j^{r_j} \cdot p_1^{t_1}\cdots p_{\ell}^{t_{\ell}}$$$$gp=g_1^{s_1}\cdots g_k^{s_k} \cdot p_1^{t_1}\cdots p_{\ell}^{t_{\ell}}.$$Since none of the $f_i$’s equal any of the $g_i$’s, it follows that g.c.d$(f,g)=p_1^{t_1}\cdots p_{\ell}^{t_{\ell}}$ which equals $p$.
Exercise 4.5.2 Assuming the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra prove the following. If $f$ and $g$ are polynomials over the field of complex numbers, then g.c.d$(f,g)=1$ if and only if $f$ and $g$ have no common root.
Solution: By the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, we can factor $f$ and $g$ all the way to linear factors $$f=(x-a_1)^{n_1}\cdots(x-a_k)^{n_k}$$$$g=(x-b_1)^{m_1}\cdots(x-b_{\ell})^{m_{\ell}}.$$The roots of $f$ are exactly $a_1,\dots,a_k$, the roots of $g$ are exactly $b_1,\dots,b_{\ell}$.If gcd$(f,g)=1$ then (by the comments at the top of page 137) $f$ and $g$ have no common factors, and therefore $a_i\not=b_j$ $\forall$ $i,j$. Thus (by Corollary 1, page 128) $f$ and $g$ have no common roots. And if $f$ and $g$ have no common roots then (by Corollary 1, page 128) none of the factors $(x-a_i)$ can equal any of the factors $(x-b_j)$. Thus gcd$(f,g)=1$.
Exercise 4.5.3 Let $D$ be the differentiation operator on the space of polynomials over the field of complex numbers. Let $f$ be a monic polynomial over the field of complex numbers. Prove that $$f=(x-c_1)\cdots(x-c_k)$$ where $c_1,\dots,c_k$ are distinct complex numbers if and only if $f$ and $Df$ are relatively prime. In other words, $f$ has no repeated roots if and only if $f$ and $Df$ have no common root. (Assume the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra.)
Solution: First assume all $c_i$’s are distinct. Then by Theorem 11, page 137, we know $f$ and $Df$ are relatively prime.
Now assume $f$ and $f’$ are relatively prime. Then again by Theorem 11 we know $f$ is a product of distinct irreducibles. Since $\mathbb C$ is algebraically closed each of those irreducibles must be of the form $x-a$. It follows that $f$ must be of the form $(x-c_1)\cdots(x-c_n)$ for distinct $c_1,\dots,c_n$.
Exercise 4.5.4 Prove the following generalization of Taylor’s formula. Let $f$, $g$, and $h$ be polynomials over a subfield of the complex numbers, with $\deg f\leq n$. Then $$f(g)=\sum_{k=0}^n\frac{1}{k!}f^{(k)}(h)(g-h)^k.$$(Here $f(g)$ denotes `$f$ of $g$.’)
Solution: Since we are working over the base field $\mathbb C$ by Theorem 3 page 126 there is a natural isomorphism between the algebra $\mathbb C[x]$ and the algebra of polynomial functions from $\mathbb C$ into $\mathbb C$. Taylor’s Theorem is therefore also a theorem about polynomial functions from $\mathbb C$ to $\mathbb C$. So we may plug any complex numbers we want in for $x$ and $c$ in the statement of Taylor’s Theorem and the equality remains valid. In particular we can subsitute $g$ in for $x$ and $h$ in for $c$ to obtain the desired formula. We then simply translate over to the algebra $\mathbb C[x]$ via the isomorphism in Theorem 3 to obtain the corresponding result in $\mathbb C[x]$.
For the remaining exercises, we shall need the following definition. If $f$, $g$, and $p$ are polynomials over the field $F$ with $p\not=0$, we say $f$ is congruent to $g$ modulo $p$ if $(f-g)$ is divisible by $p$. If $f$ is congruent to $g$ modulo $p$, we write $$f\equiv g\pmod p.$$
Exercise 4.5.5 Prove for any non-zero polynomial $p$, that congruence modulo $p$ is an equivalence relation.
(a) It is reflexive: $f\equiv f\pmod p$. (b) It is symmetric: if $f\equiv g\pmod p$, then $g\equiv f\pmod p$. (c) It is transitive: if $f\equiv g\pmod p$ and $g\equiv h\pmod p$, then $f\equiv h\pmod p$.
Solution:
(a). In this case $p$ must divide $f-f$ which equals zero. But everything divides zero. Just take $d=0$ and then $p=d(f-f)$. Thus $f\equiv f\pmod p$ is always true.
(b). Assume $f\equiv g\pmod p$. Then $p$ divides $f-g$. Thus $\exists$ $d$ s.t. $f-g=pd$. Let $d’=-d$. Then $g-f=pd’$ thus $p$ divides $g-f$. Thus $g\equiv f\pmod p$.
(c). Assume $f\equiv g\pmod p$ and $g\equiv h\pmod p$. Then $\exists$ $d$ and $d’$ such that $f-g=pd$ and $g-h=pd’$. Adding these two equations gives $f-h=pd+pd’$. Let $d”=d+d’$. Then $f-h=pd”$. Thus $f\equiv h\pmod p$.
Exercise 4.5.6 Suppose $f\equiv g\pmod p$ and $f_1\equiv g_1\pmod p$.
(a) Prove that $f+f_1\equiv g+g_1\pmod p$. (b) Prove that $ff_1\equiv gg_1\pmod p$.
Solution:
(a) By assumption there are polynomials $d$ and $d’$ such that $f-g=pd$ and $f_1-g_1=pd’$. Adding these two equations gives $$f+f_1-g-g_1=pd+pd’.$$ Or equivalently $$(f+f_1)-(g+g_1)=p(d+d’).$$ Thus $f+f_1\equiv g+g_1\pmod p$.
(b) By assumption there are polynomials $d$ and $d’$ such that $f-g=pd$ and $f_1-g_1=pd’$. Now \begin{align*}ff_1-gg_1&=ff_1-g_1f+g_1f-gg_1\\&=f(f_1-g_1)+g_1(f-g)\\&=fpd’+g_1pd=p(fd’+g_1d).\end{align*} Thus $p$ divides $ff_1-gg_1$. Thus $ff_1\equiv gg_1\pmod p$.
Exercsie 4.5.7 Use Exercise 6 to prove the following. If $f$, $g$, and $p$ are polynomials over the field $F$ and $p\not=0$, and if $f\equiv g\pmod p$, then $h(f)\equiv h(g)\pmod p$.
Solution: It follows from Exercise 6 part (b) that $f\equiv g\pmod p$ $\Rightarrow$ $f^2\equiv g^2\pmod p$ (since $f\equiv f\pmod p$ and $g\equiv g\pmod p$). By induction $f^n\equiv g^n\pmod p$ for all $n=1,2,3,\dots$. Let $c\in F$. Then letting $f_1=g_1=c$ we get $cf\equiv cg\pmod p$ for any $c\in F$. Thus if $h(x)=cx^n$ we have shown the result is true. Thus the result is true for all monomials. Now we can obtain the result on the sum of monomials using part (a) of Exercise 6. Since the general $h$ is a sum of monomials, the general result follows.
Exercise 4.5.8
If $p$ is an irreducible polynomial and $fg\equiv 0\pmod p$, prove that either $f\equiv 0\pmod p$ or $g\equiv 0\pmod p$. Give an example which shows that this is false if $p$ is not irreducible.
Solution: $fg\equiv0\pmod p$ implies $p$ divides $fg$. By the Corollary to Theorem 8, page 135, it follows that $p$ divides $f$ of $p$ divides $g$. Thus $f\equiv0\pmod p$ or $g\equiv0\pmod p$.

Load refers to the amount of stress that is placed on the body during running, such as the distance, pace, and terrain. Capacity refers to the body’s ability to handle that load, such as recovery time, strength, and flexibility.
If your load is too high compared to your capacity, running injuries are more likely to occur. For example, if you suddenly increase your mileage without allowing your body time to adjust, you may experience overuse injuries such as shin splints or IT band syndrome. On the other hand, if you don’t challenge yourself enough, you may not see the fitness gains that you desire.
To prevent running injuries, it’s important to find the right balance between load and capacity. This means gradually increasing your mileage, strength training, and cross-training while allowing for adequate rest and recovery time. It also means paying attention to your body and adjusting your running routine as needed to avoid overuse injuries.
Rehab Strategies to Fix your Running Injury If you do experience a running injury, it’s important to seek proper treatment and follow a rehab plan to prevent further injury and promote healing. Brodie Sharpe recommends several strategies to help injured runners get back on track:
1. Correct Diagnosis Correct diagnosis is essential in injury management as different conditions require a different plan. Misdiagnosing or underestimating the extent of the problem can lead to recurring issues. Seek a qualified medical practitioner, whether an orthopedic or a physiotherapist, to help assess your injury.
2. Load Management Load management is the foundation of injury rehab. Work with a professional to determine how much the injury can currently tolerate, and adjust your training program accordingly. Rehabbing should help increase your load capacity, so it’s essential to follow the rehab plan to avoid reinjury.
3. Focus on Big Rocks Brodie emphasizes treating the big rocks such as training history, recovery, and stress, before moving on to biomechanical and strength tests. Proper treatment of these should help to prevent injury or re-injury.
4. Consistency Consistency is key for results and it takes several months to see steady improvements. Tracking progress and changing one factor, such as running, cross-training, or rehab, can create a difference and help to avoid the plateau stage.
5. Pain-Free Standards Set a pain-free standard and make sure to avoid exceeding your tolerance to fix your running injury.
6. Modification and Rest Finally, it’s essential to modify your activities and allow for adequate rest and recovery time when necessary. Pushing yourself too hard or too soon can lead to reinjury and setbacks.
Final Thoughts on how to fix your running injury Remember, load versus capacity is the key to injury prevention and management, so listen to your body, adjust your training accordingly, and seek help when necessary. With proper care and attention, you can keep running strong and injury-free for years to come.
Q&A 1. What is load versus capacity, and why is it important in order to fix your running injury?
A: Load versus capacity refers to determining how much an injury can tolerate in terms of physical activity, such as running, strength training, or cross-training, in order to avoid exceeding its capacity and instead maintain strength and fitness while progressing in recovery. It is important because exceeding an injury’s capacity can lead to further injury and hinder long-term success.
2. How does Brodie Sharpe treat injured runners?
A: Brodie Sharpe emphasizes determining how much the injury can currently tolerate, whether it’s related to running, strength training, or cross-training, in order to avoid exceeding the injury’s capacity and instead stay just under it in order to maintain strength and fitness while progressing in recovery.
3. What are some common mistakes runners make when training for a race?
A: Some runners go from race to race and end up being injured due to lack of time for rehab. Others prioritize stretching and warm-up, but it is less relevant compared to load versus capacity management. Most runners who seek Brodie Sharpe’s advice on injuries have identified retrospectively that they did too much too soon in their training.
4. How does Brodie Sharpe’s background in physiotherapy influence his approach to treating injuries in runners?
A: Brodie Sharpe’s background in physiotherapy allows him to have a deeper understanding of the underlying mechanisms behind running injuries and how to manage them effectively. He focuses on load versus capacity management and tailors his treatments to each individual patient’s goals and injury history.
5. Why is consistency important in running and injury prevention?
A: Consistency in variables such as mileage, speed, and strength training is important to avoid overuse injuries and see long-term improvements in running performance. Change is necessary if no improvement is seen after months, and steady improvements can be expected month by month.
6. What are some common misconceptions about stretching and manual therapy for running injuries?
A: While stretching and manual therapy may have short-term symptom relief benefits, they are not effective for chronic injuries and do not focus on load versus capacity management. Foam rolling may have psychological and emotional recovery benefits, but the physical benefits are not supported by evidence.
7. How can runners prevent injury through load management?
A: Runners can prevent injury through load management by determining how much their body can handle in terms of physical activity, such as running, strength training, or cross-training, and avoiding exceeding their capacity. This includes paying attention to factors such as training load, terrain, shoes, recovery, sleep, stress, nutrition, and hydration.
8. How can runners improve their running performance?
A: Recreational runners should build up to 40 minutes of slow continuous running before starting speed work, usually starting with strides. In addition to load versus capacity management, runners should also aim for consistency in variables such as mileage, speed, and strength training to see long-term improvements in running performance. |

Mission Statement: Grenfell Apostolic Church exists to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ in word and deed and to disciple His followers to be like Him. Vision Statement: In order to proclaim the gospel and produce maturity, we make opportunity for people to learn with and from each other, to have fellowship with one another and to reach out to our community in lovingkindness alongside one another. Services will now be viewable online only . However, we will offer a gathering and fellowship time to come together to share scriptures, testimonies, pray together and encourage one another. As of right now we will be holding these on Sundays at 10:30am.
Please note that you will NEED TO SIGN UP for these fellowship times as we are only allowed 30 in the building at this time. This can be done by calling the office or preferably online by going to Gathering Registration.
Gatherings are taking place with guidelines in place as set out by the Province.
The church is now accepting donations online, by mail or by dropping them off at the church.
Words from the Bible The Lord says…Even to your old age I will be the same, And even to your graying years I will carry you! I have done it, and I will bear you; And I will carry you and I will save you. Isaiah 46:4
[Jesus said,] “For this reason I say to you, do not be worried about your life, as to what you will eat or what you will drink; nor for your body, as to what you will put on. Is life not more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the sky, that they do not sow, nor reap, nor gather crops into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more important than they?
And which of you by worrying can add a single day to his life’s span? And why are you worried about clothing? Notice how the lilies of the field grow; they do not labor nor do they spin thread for cloth, yet I say to you that not even Solomon in all his glory clothed himself like one of these.
But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, will He not much more clothe you? You of little faith!
Do not worry then, saying, ‘What are we to eat?’ or ‘What are we to drink?’ or ‘What are we to wear for clothing?’ For the Gentiles eagerly seek all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.
But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be provided to you. So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.” Matthew 6:25-34
He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.” Psalm 91:1-2 |

Open Question Answering | Agnès Poirier is the author of the new book Left Bank: Art, Passion, and the Rebirth of Paris, 1940-50 . Her other books includeTouch , and her work has appeared in a variety of publications, including é : A French Woman's Take on the EnglishThe Guardian ,The Observer , andThe Nation . She lives in Paris and London.Q: Why did you decide to focus on the literary world in Paris in the 1940s in your new book? A: Very good question! Originally, I had planned to study1944-1954, the immediate post-war, and I did research this period for 18months, but then, when I started to write, I found myself in front of adilemma: how can one start in 1944 without evoking at length the four previousyears! Impossible.
I had to start in fact in 1939. All my"characters" would not have become who they are without those crucialfour years. Also, when I reached 1950, I had already written around 800 pages,i.e. twice what my publisher had in mind, so we thought, let's keep it to adecade: 1940-1950. And I cut the manuscript down to a dense 350-400 pages (theUK edition is 400 pages long).
Q: The book includes a huge cast of characters. How did you choose which ones to focus on most prominently? A: There were far more characters in the original and toolong version of the book! So I had to lose some very colorful ones. However,there were some I couldn't part with, among them, Jacques Jaujard who opens thebook, the saviour of the Louvre Museum, and Irwin Shaw, the writer andscreenwriter.
I wanted a mélange of well-known figures I couldn't ignore(Sartre, Beauvoir, Camus, for instance) with forgotten figures such as JanetFlanner, Art Buchwald, Theodore H. White, and unknown ones such as EdithThomas. And of course I couldn't do without Miles Davis, Norman Mailer, JamesBaldwin, Saul Bellow, Arthur Koestler, Richard Wright.
It is an eclectic mix which mirrors my inter-disciplinarytaste. I was charmed by every one of them, sometimes surprised and irritated,in different ways, (Saul Bellow is a very contrarian character, for instance).I had their pictures pinned on my wall while I wrote the book. I felt theirpresence, or their spirit.
Q: How did you research the book, and what did you learn that particularly surprised you? A: That memory and truth are decidedly a murky business! Andthat talking to survivors and getting their testimonies is not a guarantee ofhistorical accuracy. Facts only are reliable but then every one has a differenttake on them, a different interpretation. Truth is somewhere in the mist. Thisis why I wrote that "Left Bank" is a historical reconstruction basedon facts.
Q: Is there a modern-day equivalent to Paris’s cultural life during this period? A: Yes, there is but then it is to be found a littleeverywhere in Paris and in its suburbs too. It is not as geographically intenseand focused as it was then. This is why postwar Paris's Left Bank was such aremarkable place to live in. So many Nobel and Pulitzer prizes concentrated onjust a few streets!
Q: What are you working on now? A: Am back to writing about and commenting the news (MostlyEuropean news, political and cultural) in print and for radio and television.Am waiting to see if
Left Bank finds a readership before embarking on a similar adventure. It is a lot of work but a wonderful journey, one which I'd love to repeat.Q: Anything else we should know? A: (That I think Brexit is madness !)

Product Description
Harmonics
The harmonic gear transmission is invented by the American inventor C.W.Musser in 1955. It is a new type of transmission mode which uses flexible working components to move into motion or power by elastic deformation. It breaks through the mode of mechanical transmission with rigid component mechanism and uses a flexible component to realize mechanical transmission. Thus, a series of special functions which are difficult to achieve by other transmission are obtained. Because the deformation process of the intermediate flexible member is basically a symmetrical harmonic, it is named. In addition to the former Soviet Union called this kind of transmission waveform transmission or flexible wheel transmission, the United States, Britain, Germany, Japan and other countries are called "harmonic drive".
Rigid wheel: rigid internal gear, usually 2 teeth more than flexible wheel, usually fixed on the chassis.
Flexible cup: thin cup type metal elastic part with outer gear on the outer ring, which is deformed with the rotation of the wave generator and is usually connected with the output shaft.
Wave generator: consisting of an elliptic cam and a flexible bearing, usually connected to the input shaft. The inner ring of the flexible bearing is fixed on the cam, and the outer ring can be elastically shaped into ellipse through the ball.
The principle of the harmonic gear deceleration is the relative motion of the flexible wheel, the rigid wheel and the wave generator, which is mainly the flexible deformation of the flexible wheel to realize the movement and the transmission of the power. The oval cam in the wave generator rotates in the flexible wheel to make the flexible wheel deform, and the flexible wheel gear and the rigid wheel gear at both ends of the shaft of the oval cam shaft of the wave generator. The flexible wheel teeth at both ends of the short shaft are removed from the gear teeth at the ends of the short axis. The teeth between the long axis and the short axis of the wave generator are located in the different sections of the two circumference of the flexible wheel and the steel wheel in the meshing state, which is called meshing. In the state of gradual withdrawal from meshing and semi-meshing, it is called meshing out. When the wave generator is continuously rotated, the flexible wheel produces the deformation continuously, making the two wheels rodent, meshing, meshing and disengaging four kinds of motion to change their original working state and produce the wrong tooth motion, and realize the movement transmission of the active wave generator to the flexible wheel.

Open Question Answering | Using an extension cord always feels dangerous. Especially when you have kids in the house. It’s a worrying matter. But still, you need to use them for some outside activity.
What outdoor extension cord safety is? There are 4 particular ways you can manage to save your household from outdoor extension cord hazards. You can ensure the right extension cord for the right use. You also need to ensure proper use of the extension cord for proper work. As well as you need to store your extension cord correctly. You might still be pretty dizzy about that matter about what safety precautions you need to follow. That’s why I have explained the safety measures for you.
So, don’t worry, read along with the details for detailed information!
Is Outdoor Extension Cord Safe Enough? You might think buying an outdoor extension cord should give you the ultimate safety. Well, the cord is actually different from an indoor extension cord.
Because the jacket or insulation the outdoor extension cord has is tougher than the indoor one. This insulation can tolerate moisture, chemicals, sudden temperature changes, and ultraviolet rays.
This is why it’s called the outdoor extension cord. It’s suitable for outdoor uses.
But still, there are some safety rules for the outdoor extension cord. Because unfortunately, it’s not 100% safe if you don’t know the safety measures.
4 Safety Measures for Outdoor Extension Cord We all know how useful the outdoor extension cord can be, especially during the holidays. It can be a great tool to use in the household whether indoor or outdoor.
An extension cord is a common way to power the electrical device. But many of us try to avoid extension cords. It is because of the danger and certain pitfalls of using the extension cord.
Many times you will also notice that there is a smell of burning. This smell is kind of similar to the smell when the pressure cooker runs out of water.
But here’s a thing we need to take proper caution before using outdoor extension cord. Otherwise, it can pose a fire hazard or risk to safety.
You can take 4 safety precautions to use an extension cord. Jump on and hit the details-
Tip 1: Choose The Right Extension Cord Choosing the right cord is super important. You should always choose the right cord for the right uses.
Extension cord mainly falls into three broad categories according to uses. They are- occasional use, frequent use, rugged use.
To make sure you have the right types of extension cord, you need to check the cord description. Or you can look for the cord designated letter.
If your cord is an outdoor one, it should be the W class extension cord. Because W class refers to the outdoor cord.
The difference between outdoor and indoor extension cords is the insolation feature. Outdoor extension cords are well covered and made for heavy-duty.
You should always choose your extension cord according to your uses and requirements.
There are two types of plug cords in the market, 2-prong plug cord, and 3-prong plug cord. But I suggest you try to buy the 3-prong plug.
The 3-prong usually reduces the risk of electrical shock and electrical fire hazards. It gives the power surges a safe place to dissipate.
Tip 2: Use The Extension Cord Correctly Using an extension cord incorrectly will get it damaged or cause a fire hazard. And it’s pretty difficult to get rid of electrical fire.
As a result, you should always discuss safety issues and tips before using an extension cord. You have to have a fire extinguisher in your house for any hazard.
Here I have collected some of the most usable and reliable fire extinguishers for you-
Product 01 Product 02
These extinguishers are very much useful. They will help to prevent any loss immediately if any related hazards happen.
Here are some other safety precautions you need to follow before or after using an extension cord-
You should never remove an extension cord grounding pin to fit into a 2-prong outlet
You should also avoid powering up multiple devices with a single cord. It will overflow the electricity to the cord. As a result, it can be a cause of damage or fire hazard.
Next, you should never use an indoor extension cord outdoors. Indoor extension cords don’t have that much insulation feature.
That’s why you shouldn’t use an indoor extension cord outdoors. But here’s a thing, you can use an outdoor extension cord indoors.
You must also avoid plugging multiple cords together. It can overheat the code as well as can damage the electric device.
Remember to avoid running extension cord under rug or furniture as well. That can hamper the cord and release the electricity.
You should never use staples or pins to attach the cord. Because it causes damage to the extension cord.
You should definitely avoid bending or coiling the extension cord while you are using the extension cord.
Lastly, you should avoid using an extension cord that feels hot when you are touching it. That can happen because of the extensive load or the unconditional release of electricity.
You should remember that outdoor extension cords aren’t a permanent solution to your electricity line. From my experience, I suggest you occasionally use them like how you plug in your Christmas tree in an outdoor outlet.
But if you are using an extension cord regularly, consider updating your home electrical system. Because with an advanced electrical system, you can avoid any type of electrical danger.
Tip 3: Store the Extension Cord Correctly You should always store the extension cord in a proper manner. Storing the extension cord requires you to follow some proper rules. These are-
You should always store the cord indoors. Always unplug the extension cord when you are not using them. Examine if the cord is damaged before using it. Using a damaged cord can cause a fire hazard. It can release electricity improperly. Avoid pulling the cord when disconnecting it from the outlet. There is a tendency to pull the cord to unplug from the outlet rather than the plug. It causes damage to the connection of the cord. Tip 4: Don’t Forget a Few Small But Important Things If you are using the extension cord outdoors, try to avoid the watery area. Purchase a cold-rated extension cord for outdoor use in the snow. Because water or snow can be a cause for electrical shock.
FAQs Question: How do I know if my extension cord is indoor or outdoor? Answer: You’ll know that by seeing the letter designation. If your extension cord package has the word “W” which denotes that the cord is used for outdoor activities. Question: Can an outdoor extension cord get wet? Answer: It’s very dangerous if your outdoor extension cord gets wet. Your plug could get leakages. You should unplug the cord before it rains. Question: Does outdoor wiring need to be in conduit? Answer: Yes. Your outdoor wiring needs to be in conduit. This is to protect it from physical damage.Conclusion That’s all from me. I hope now you are aware of how important outdoor extension cord safety is.
You can now, hopefully, avoid the danger from the extension cord. And also ensure the safety of your household.
Best of luck with your outdoor work! |

Open Question Answering | If you’ve heard it once, you’ve heard it a thousand times, “Great Entrepreneurs are Proactive!” But did you ever give much thought to the reason behind this saying?
When I became a Virtual Assistant, the first 3 lessons I learned were: 1. create value 2. be an expert problem solver & 3. be a genius at idea generation
Why were these lessons so important? Because as a Virtual Assistant if I’m not being proactive and moving clients in the direction they want to go, the partnership quickly goes south. I can’t sit around and wait for clients to tell me what to do next. I must work proactively using my intuitive skills to ensure clients are headed in the right direction and that business goals are being met.
Not too long ago, one of my favorite clients ran into some technical glitches as the result of a website transfer. This glitch not only impacted marketing and promotions, but also halted the work we had carefully planned. I did not mind the opportunity this created for me to have some down time but as a proactive Virtual Assistant, I knew that was not an option. I had two choices:
sit back and relax because, after all, it wasn’t my fault that the website transfer wasn’t complete OR be an expert problem solver and asses the real impact this had on my client, her customers, and newsletter subscribers I, of course, chose option #2 and suggested that we send an email to her customers and newsletter subscribers letting them know what was happening and exactly what to expect next. This small, yet powerful gesture, would maintain the consistency she’d worked so hard to build.
Client’s Response: “You are so right, that’s a great idea!” Being proactive allowed us to maintain consistency by keeping everyone (customers/newsletter subscribers) in the loop and prompted my client to reflect on the business lessons she had learned. The following is an excerpt from the actual article she wrote as a result of my being a proactive Virtual Assistant.
Patience – As the saying goes, the lesson will repeat until you learn it. I’m learning to accept the things I can’t change and that are out of my control.Allow for glitches – Maybe if I had built into my timetable some leeway for possible glitches, things would have worked out differently.Have a Plan “B” – When Plan “A” doesn’t work out, it’s always a good idea to have a Plan “B”. If I’d had a Plan “B”, I would have already been prepared to send the article in another format.Are you being proactive? Are you doing what you need to be doing to grow your business, service your clients or enhance your products OR are you just going along for the ride, not sure where you’ll end up?
Solution: Take time every day to proactively look ahead, create a plan for getting where you want to go, and then take action.

Open Question Answering | Jimenez-Martin PJ, Melendez-Ortega A, Albers A and Schofield D. A Review of Tai Chi Chuan and parameters related to balance. European Journal of Integrative Medicine 2013; 5(6):469-475.
Background: Previous systematic reviews of the literature on tai chi and balance have focussed on one of two topics, either examining the quality of the research design, which has had great variance, or offering a general description of the studies included in the review. The current review is an analysis of the factors that affect balance.Methodology: The authors searched seven data bases for publications relating to tai chi and balance between 1996 and 2012. The inclusion criteria were randomised trials written in English.Results: A total of 397 articles were identified. Once the inclusion filter was added a total of 27 random controlled studies were eligible of analysis.Conclusion: Analysis of the eligible papers confirmed that tai chi chuan practice improves both static and dynamic balance and has a positive effect on those factors that influence balance. No studies were found examining whether there was an improvement in balance in those individuals suffering from deterioration of brain function. One study examined the effects of tai chi chuan on people with vestibular problems.Comment: The paper by Jimenez-Martin et al is one of the on-going looking at the effects of tai chi chuan on balance. Falls remain a significant healthcare problem around the world. Being able to elucidate the types of therapies that can help relieve this will have a dramatic effect not only on the individuals who are suffering from problems with balance, but, with the addition of tai chi chuan, also with the cost of treatment and care. This work should be better known throughout the healthcare community.
Cheon S-M, Chae B-K, Sung H-R, et al. The Efficacy of Exercise Programs for Parkinson’s Disease: Tai Chi versus Combined Exercise. Journal of Clinical Neurology. 2013; 9:237-243.
Background: Exercise if recommended for every patient suffering from Parkinson’s Disease. The effectiveness of different exercise regimes has not been clearly elucidated. The paper compares the effectiveness of tai chi chuan compared to combined stretching-strengthening exercise.Methodology: Patients with mild to moderate Parkinson’s Disease were recruited to join either a combined stretching-strengthening group, the tai chi group or the non-interventional control group. The two activity groups met three times each week for 8 weeks. The tai chi group was led by a certified instructor based on the Tai-Chi-for-arthritis program. The combined exercise group did a mix of folk dancing, stepping and elastic band exercises. The functional fitness, Parkinson symptoms, Quality of Life and depression were evaluated.Results: Both exercise groups showed better overall functional fitness following the 8 week intervention. However, the Parkinson group did not reveal any improvement in symptoms. Reviewing the Quality of Life aspects, the stretching-strengthening group did batter with regard to the domain while the tai chi group fared better in the emotional domain. The control group showed continued decline for Quality of Life and depression. Post-intervention assessment revealed that the Tai Chi group improved compared to the control group.Conclusion: Exercise shows improved functional fitness and Quality of Life in Parkinson’s Disease patients, with Tai Ch giving better results in the Quality of Life and functional fitness overall.Comment: It is obvious from this study that exercise, in general, is beneficial for Parkinson’s patients. In particular, it was noted that the improvements between the two exercise groups differed, indicating that for these patients it may be most useful to combine both tai chi with some other form of exercise if there is to be a full range of improvements.
Ng L, Chiang LK, Tang R, et al. Effectiveness of incorporating Tai Chi in a pulmonary rehabilitation program for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) in primary care- A pilot randomized controlled trial. European Journal of Integrative Medicine. 2014; 6:248-258.
Background: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a major public health concern throughout the industrialized world. Studies have shown that pulmonary rehabilitation and tai chi chuan are beneficial for those patients suffering from this disease. This study was aimed at determining whether the self-efficacy and quality of life of CIPD patients who were active in a pulmonary rehabilitation program either with or without tai chi would improve.Methodology: 192 COPD patients were recruited from primary care clinics. They were randomly assigned to wither the tai chi group or the pulmonary rehabilitation group. Both groups received 2 sessions/week for 6 weeks. Data collection was performed at baseline, 2 and 6 months post intervention.Results: An intention to treat analysis was preformed revealing the groups were matched. Improvements were seen in exercise capacity, health status and self-efficacy within both groups at 6 months post-intervention. Though more favourable improvements were noted with the tai chi group, only the functional exercise capacity revealed a statistical improvement.Conclusion: The effect of incorporating Tai Chi into pulmonary rehabilitation programs showed a modest benefit. Comment: In the case of this research we see a modest improvement in exercise capacity of the tai chi participants. Given the very short time frame that this research project used it is quite conceivable that a longer study would reveal greater effects of tai chi chuan.
Nery RM, Zanini M, Ferrari JN et al. Tai Chi Chuan for Cardiac Rehabilitation in Patients with Coronary Arterial Disease. Arquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia. 2014; 102(6).
Background: Studies have shown that the practice of tai chi chuan can improve cardiac function in patients with heart disease. This paper is a systematic review of the literature assessing the effectiveness of tai chi chuan on patients suffering from coronary artery disease.Methodology: The following databases were searched for papers in English, Portuguese and Spanish looking at the effects of tai chi chuan on patients with coronary artery disease; MEDLINE, ENBASE, LILACS and the Cochrane Register of Controlled Trials. Three independent investigators extracted and assessed the data for methodology and quality. Results: The initial search found 201 papers dealing with tai chi and coronary artery disease. Following the critical review and analysis, 12 studies were considered for inclusion. After a full analysis, an additional 9 were excluded leaving three papers meeting the full criteria for inclusion. These studies included patients who had a confirmed diagnosis of coronary artery disease and were considered stable and able to exercise. Each study had a control group that either practiced a structured exercise or were given counselling for exercise. Follow-up ranged from 2 to 12 months.Conclusion: The preliminary evidence based on the three studies used in this review suggests that tai chi chuan can be utilized as a form of cardiac rehabilitation for patients with stable coronary artery disease. The methodological problems and small sample sizes in each study indicate that further research into this area is needed.Comment: Non-pharmacological approaches to many of the diseases we see are becoming an important consideration for care, especially self-care. This paper, while expressing reservations due to methodology and small sample size gives us an entrance into further, future research that most practitioner s can easily incorporate into their practices.

We'll go over the different ways you can link your Aadhaar number to your bank account, including online banking, mobile apps, phone banking, and more. The specific steps you need to take will depend on your bank, but this should help you out in the vast majority of situations.

Open Question Answering | When freshly installed, porcelain tiles have a really smooth surface and a glossy appearance. But as time passes, the design might have an impact. This may give off a somewhat dull appearance.
How to make matte porcelain tile shiny? You can simply use a gloss fluid on your tiles. But you have to clean the area to make it ready for glossing first. Once done, you can gradually apply thin coats of gloss. When the coating dries, your floor should have the desired shiny effect. But this is a thorough process that should be done with care. Already understood what you have to do? We don’t think so. To do this properly, go through the step-by-step guide below.
Let’s get started and make your floor shiny as ever!
How To Make Your Matte Porcelain Tiles Shiny Who doesn’t want shiny matte porcelain tiles?
To be honest, everyone does. But you have to make an effort to reach the perfect shiny tiles. Don’t worry! It won’t take much time as well. The duration is much less than the grout drying time before sealing.
Want to do the job now? Let’s check out the needed equipment then: Clean bucket Rubber gloves White vinegar Mops Vacuum or broom Foam brush or wax applicator Once you have the tools, you can start the work!
Step 1: Detect If the Tile Is Glazed or Not You need to consider if you can actually apply the gloss fluid or not. On top of certain porcelain tiles has a glass covering. If you wanted to add gloss, this may prohibit you from doing so.
Unglazed tiles, however, allow you to add the shine you want. Examine the porcelain tile to detect if it’s glazed or not.
Step 2: Clear The Area Move all furniture off the floor to work. Next, the porcelain tile floor should be carefully vacuumed or swept. This will help remove any residual dust and debris.
Step 3: Ensure Safety Wear gloves made of chemical-resistant materials. Use the same gloves used for removing grout haze.
You also have to make sure none of the chemical solutions goes into your eyes. That’s why you should wear safety glasses.
You should also avoid inhaling fumes while dealing with chemicals. To do so, always keep the space adequately ventilated. Keep doors and windows while working and also after you’re done.
Step 4: Clean Everything Before Applying Gloss Before glossing, wipe off the porcelain tiles. For that, fill a bucket with 2 gallons of warm water and ¼ cups of white vinegar.
Dip a mop into the cleaning mixture. Clean any scum or stains from the unglazed porcelain tile. This way you can clean your shower tiles without scrubbing them.
If you think you have to scrub the tiles, use a scrub brush or an abrasive pad. Dip the cleaning pad or brush into a porcelain tile cleaning solution before scrubbing.
Allow the tile to dry after rinsing. Repeat as needed to remove stubborn stains. Once the dirt is gone, move on to the next step.
Step 5: Follow Manufacturer’s Instruction Before applying the gloss finish, thoroughly read the manufacturer’s instructions. Work according to what specific circumstances require, such as ideal room temperature. You will get the best results if you follow the instructions.
Step 6: Apply Gloss Fluid It’s time to start applying the gloss fluid. Just pour a little amount of the gloss fluid into a bucket.
Take a brush with strong bristles. Polish over the tiles with it. You can also do the job by using a foam rubber brush, wax applicator, or mop.
Use a light coat of gloss for this. Ensure the coat or application is clear rather than white as you go. Make sure to wipe away any puddles that try to form on the porcelain flooring.
Don’t have gloss fluid? Here are some options for you: Product 1 Product 2
Grab one and above are the instructions.
Step 7: Let the Gloss Fluid Dry Congratulations on finishing applying the fluid. But don’t be happy so soon!
You have to let the tiles dry off. You can set up a fan to blow over the floor to help with drying. It’ll take at least 30 minutes for the flooring to cure fully.
Step 8: Use Another Coating After the floor has dried up enough, apply a second layer of gloss. Make sure the coat is even. Otherwise, it won’t look good at all.
Step 9: Allow the Coat to Dry Leave the second coat to dry properly. Examine the amount of shine on the floor now.
If you need more, continue the process with the third application for a greater gloss. But make sure to give each coat enough to dry before applying another coat. You may also follow this with marble tiles. Especially after cutting the marble tiles as they may lose their shine.
That’s it! Your matte porcelain tiles should be shining after the process. Make sure to clean the tiles to maintain the shine. You can clean them in the way one can clean their ceramic tiles. Because both tile types have the same cleaning process.
FAQs Question: Can I use baking soda to clean stains? Answer: Yes, baking soda may be used to remove stains from tile floors. Vinegar and ammonia water solutions also can be used alternatively.Question: What may cause porcelain tile to deteriorate? Answer: The use of corrosive substances on a regular basis damages the tile’s surface. Sometimes not cleaning your tiles for a long time can also cause this problem. Question: What should I use on porcelain tiles for regular cleaning? Answer: For regular cleaning, warm water, and a mop. If you want, you can add liquid dishwashing soap to the water. Conclusion This is all we had on how to make matte porcelain tiles shiny . We hope you follow through with the steps and find this post helpful.
If you’re confused as to which product to use, consult your tile manufacturer. This will prevent any unforeseen damage and give the best results.
Hopefully, now your matte porcelain tiles are as shiny as new!

Open Question Answering | Introduction Earth’s magnetic field is a fascinating natural phenomenon that has captivated scientists and researchers for centuries. This invisible force plays a crucial role in protecting our planet from harmful solar radiation and cosmic particles.
However, it’s not a static entity; instead, it undergoes changes over time, which leads to the question: how often does Earth’s magnetic field change direction? In this comprehensive article, we will delve into the intricacies of this subject, exploring the frequency of these changes, their implications, and their importance in understanding Earth’s magnetic history.
How Often Does Earth’s Magnetic Field Change Direction? The direction of Earth’s magnetic field experiences periodic changes, known as geomagnetic reversals. During a geomagnetic reversal, the North and South magnetic poles switch places, causing the magnetic compass needle to point southward instead of northward. These reversals are a natural occurrence and have happened numerous times throughout Earth’s history.
Understanding Geomagnetic Reversals Geomagnetic reversals are significant events in our planet’s geological past. They are recorded in rocks, particularly in the form of magnetized minerals like magnetite. Scientists study these magnetic imprints to unravel the history of Earth’s magnetic field. By examining ancient rock formations, researchers can determine the occurrence and frequency of geomagnetic reversals.
The Frequency of Geomagnetic Reversals Q: How often does Earth’s magnetic field change direction? The frequency of geomagnetic reversals is not uniform throughout Earth’s history. On average, these reversals occur every several hundred thousand years to millions of years. In the past 83 million years, the magnetic field has reversed approximately 183 times, translating to a reversal roughly every 450,000 years.
Causes of Geomagnetic Reversals The exact causes behind geomagnetic reversals are still not fully understood. However, they are believed to be linked to the movement of molten iron and nickel in Earth’s outer core. This liquid metal generates electrical currents, leading to the creation of the magnetic field. As the flow patterns change, the magnetic field can also shift, eventually resulting in a reversal.
Impacts of Geomagnetic Reversals Geomagnetic reversals have several potential impacts on our planet and its inhabitants. One of the most significant effects is on Earth’s magnetic shield, which weakens during a reversal. This could lead to increased exposure to harmful cosmic radiation, potentially affecting electronic devices, communication systems, and even living organisms.
Geomagnetic Reversals and Navigation Q: How do geomagnetic reversals impact navigation? Geomagnetic reversals can cause confusion in animal migration patterns and navigation systems that rely on Earth’s magnetic field. For instance, some species of birds and marine animals use the magnetic field for navigation during their migrations. A sudden reversal could disrupt these patterns and lead to unintended consequences for wildlife.
Evidence of Geomagnetic Reversals The evidence of geomagnetic reversals can be found in the geological record. Paleomagnetic studies involve analyzing ancient rocks to identify the direction and strength of past magnetic fields. Striped patterns on the ocean floor, known as magnetic striping, provide substantial evidence for these past events.
The Role of Magnetic Striping Magnetic striping occurs due to the movement of tectonic plates on the ocean floor. As magma rises from the mid-ocean ridges and solidifies, it preserves the prevailing magnetic orientation of Earth’s magnetic field at that time. By measuring and dating these magnetic stripes, scientists can piece together the history of geomagnetic reversals.
Reversals and Plate Tectonics Q: Are geomagnetic reversals related to plate tectonics? While geomagnetic reversals and plate tectonics are both phenomena associated with Earth’s dynamic interior, they are not directly related. Plate tectonics involve the movement and interaction of the Earth’s lithosphere, which consists of tectonic plates, while geomagnetic reversals occur in the liquid outer core due to changes in the flow of molten metals.
The Impact on Earth’s Atmosphere Geomagnetic reversals can influence Earth’s atmosphere and climate. During a reversal, the weakening of the magnetic field might lead to increased solar radiation reaching the planet’s surface. This influx of energy can have implications for weather patterns, temperature distribution, and possibly contribute to climate change.
Geomagnetic Reversals and Extinction Events Q: Is there a connection between geomagnetic reversals and extinction events? The correlation between geomagnetic reversals and mass extinction events is an area of ongoing scientific research. Some studies suggest a possible link between the two, proposing that periods of increased geological activity during reversals may have contributed to past extinction events.
The Impact on Space Exploration Space agencies and satellite operators need to account for Earth’s magnetic field when launching and operating spacecraft. Geomagnetic reversals can impact satellite trajectories, communication, and navigation systems, making it essential for space missions to factor in these fluctuations.
The Role of Paleomagnetism in Geology Paleomagnetism is a branch of geophysics that studies the ancient magnetic field preserved in rocks. By analyzing the magnetization of rocks and their alignment with Earth’s magnetic field, geologists can gain valuable insights into the Earth’s past, including the frequency and timing of geomagnetic reversals.
Predicting Geomagnetic Reversals Q: Can scientists predict when the next geomagnetic reversal will occur? Currently, scientists cannot accurately predict when the next geomagnetic reversal will take place. While they can study the past occurrences and determine the average frequency, the specific timing of future reversals remains uncertain due to the complexity of Earth’s core dynamics.
Geomagnetic Reversals in History Throughout Earth’s history, geomagnetic reversals have left their mark on the geological record. Notable reversal events include the Brunhes-Matuyama reversal, which occurred approximately 780,000 years ago, and the Laschamp event, a brief reversal around 41,000 years ago.
Magnetic Field Measurements Q: How do scientists measure Earth’s magnetic field? Scientists use a variety of instruments and techniques to measure Earth’s magnetic field. Magnetometers are commonly used devices that can detect and measure the strength and direction of the magnetic field at specific locations.
The Importance of Studying Geomagnetic Reversals Understanding geomagnetic reversals is of paramount importance for several reasons. Firstly, it provides insights into the dynamic nature of Earth’s core and its influence on the planet’s overall behavior. Secondly, studying these events can help us anticipate potential impacts on modern technology and ecosystems during future reversals.
Conclusion In conclusion, the question of how often Earth’s magnetic field changes direction is a fascinating one that has captivated scientists and researchers for decades. Geomagnetic reversals, although occurring irregularly throughout history, play a crucial role in shaping our planet’s geological and environmental landscape. As we continue to study and gain more insights into these phenomena, we
enhance our understanding of Earth’s dynamic nature and our place within this vast and ever-changing cosmos.
FAQs Q: Can the weakening of Earth’s magnetic field during a reversal lead to health risks for humans? A: While geomagnetic reversals weaken the magnetic shield, Earth’s atmosphere still provides significant protection from harmful cosmic radiation. The weakening is more likely to impact electronic devices and navigation systems rather than directly posing health risks to humans.
Q: Are geomagnetic reversals sudden events, or do they happen gradually? A: Geomagnetic reversals typically occur over thousands of years, which is considered gradual in geological terms. The changes in Earth’s magnetic field during a reversal happen slowly over time.
Q: Can we use knowledge of past geomagnetic reversals for future space missions? A: Yes, studying past geomagnetic reversals helps space agencies and satellite operators account for possible disruptions in satellite trajectories and communication systems during future missions.
Q: What is the significance of the Brunhes-Matuyama reversal in geological history? A: The Brunhes-Matuyama reversal is one of the most recent and well-documented geomagnetic reversals. Its occurrence approximately 780,000 years ago provides valuable data for studying the behavior of Earth’s magnetic field.

Open Question Answering | Azotobacter is a genus of free-living or motile diazotrophic bacteria that is oval or spherical and forms thick-walled cysts. They are aerobic and free-living soil microbes that play a pivotal role in nitrogen fixation. The azotobacter is primarily found in alkaline soils and aquatic environments and also on some plants. The azotobacter biofertilizer uses are renowned all over the world. It is noteworthy to highlight that azotobacter is typically used as a model organism for studying and analyzing diazotrophs. In addition to being excellent biofertilizers, azotobacter is also used to produce food additives and some biopolymers.
The azotobacter was first discovered by a Dutch microbiologist, Martinus Beijerinck in 1901. Martinus was one of the founding pioneers of environmental microbiology and described azotobacter chroococcum as the first aerobic, free-living nitrogen fixer. After that, the azotobacter vinelandii was discovered in 1909, followed by the discovery of several other variants of the azotobacter. Now that we have covered the fundamentals of the azotobacter, let us get into a detailed study of the azotobacter chroococcum and azotobacter vinelandii.
(image will be uploaded soon)
It is a nitrogen-fixing bacteria that plays an integral part as a biofertilizer, fungicide, and nutrient indicator. The azotobacter chroococcum is usually found in soils of moderate temperature with a neutral pH level. The soil must be rich in phosphorus to cater to the nitrogen fixation process by the azotobacter. The chroococcum is widely used in the realm of crop production. One study reveals a correlation between increased crop production and the presence of azotobacter chroococcum. The bacterium has also been proven to galvanize the growth of crops in polluted soils.
The azotobacter vinelandii can be easily cultured and grown. It is a Gram-negative diazotrophic bacterium that can fix nitrogen when it is grown aerobically. It is a free-living bacterium that produces fluorescent pigments. Now that we have learned about the two primordial variants of azotobacter, let us discuss the process of nitrogen fixation.
We can understand biological nitrogen-fixing as the mechanism wherein a microorganism mediates fixing elemental nitrogen via enzymes known as nitrogenase. As such, nitrogen fixation entails the conversion of atmospheric nitrogen (N2 ) into ammonium that the plant's roots can readily absorb. The azotobacter is a free-living, nitrogen-fixing bacterium, they fix molecular nitrogen directly from the atmosphere without any symbiotic relations with plants. The azotobacter is equipped with various enzymes that foster nitrogen fixation. As the mechanism of nitrogen fixation is intensely sensitive to the presence of oxygen, the azotobacter developed a particular defense mechanism against oxygen which intensifies their metabolism and reduces the concentration of oxygen from the cells.
Let us now glance at the various characteristics of the Azotobacter.
The azotobacter fertilizer is proven to be highly efficient for plant health.
They are rod-shaped and Gram-negative in the Gram staining process.
The azotobacter moves by means of their flagellum, which is located at their end.
Some species of azotobacter produce a pigment that adds a yellow-green, red-violet, or brownish-black hue to the soil they are located in.
The size of the azotobacter is quite large as compared to other bacteria. The former is almost as big as a yeast cell.
The azotobacter can survive in harsh conditions via two mechanisms – the cyst and the slime.
It is crucial to remember that azotobacter biofertilizer uses have shown that they are of tremendous help in ensuring plant health. The azotobacter is widely used in agriculture to increase soil fertility and stimulate plant growth. The presence of azotobacter is prominent in biofertilizers. They are also crucial in the manufacture of alginic acid that is renowned in medicine as an antacid. It is also essential to highlight that azotobacter is critical to the food industry as well.
In conclusion, we can safely assert that azotobacter is a crucial part of our environment and they are indispensable for nitrogen fixation and plant health. Microorganisms including azotobacter and rhizobium play a vital role in the development of flora and fauna on earth. We must recognize their roles and identify their importance. You can take a look at an azotobacter ppt to grasp more information on the subject. You can also learn the azotobacter biofertilizer production process in detail to know more about it.
1. What is mass multiplication of azotobacter?
Ans: Mass multiplication of azotobacter is a process where they are artificially inoculated. The process entailed transferring the azotobacter inoculants to a sterile flask and incubating them on a rotary shaker for a few days at 30 degrees centigrade. The broth acts as the initial culture that can be utilized for the mass multiplication or production of the azotobacter inoculants. It is when the density of the inoculums becomes 10; the inoculants should be prepared. The broth is then mixed with a carrier, and the curing is done for a week in such a way that 40 percent of the moisture is maintained. Suitable carrier materials are materials followed by sterilization by autoclaving. After that, the carrier-based inoculants are packed in polythene bags and sent to the market.2. What is azotobacter colony morphology?
Ans: Azotobacter is relatively large in size. The bacteria are generally oval in shape and may take various forms, such as rods and spheres. The colony morphology of azotobacter can be described as a glistening opaque white-colored mass with a flat and irregular shape. The growth is typically smooth and soft. The diameter of the colony is around 15mm. When we magnify by 10000 times, we can see that the cells of the azotobacter colony are bacilli and possess a negative Gram staining.3. Where are azotobacter typically found?
Ans: All variants of azotobacter are easily found in neutral and weakly alkaline soils. They are also seen in the Arctic and Antarctic regions of the earth. Low pH levels are crucial for the growth of azotobacter. We can also observe them in aquatic and marshy habitats. |
