How to Make Sugardine Antiseptic
How to Make Sugardine Antiseptic
sugardineSugardine antiseptic is well known to many who deal with horses, however, it is rarely discussed for use in people. Now, read my disclaimer and realize I am not a doctor, so do your own research.
Basically sugardine is an antiseptic that uses the antibacterial properties of both pure sugar and iodine to prevent and kill infections. It is primarily used to treat abscesses and thrush on the hooves of horses, but it can be used in many other ways. As a side benefit to the prepper, it is cheap and easy to make as well as being effective if used properly.
While it is true that a dilute sugar solution will feed bacteria and mold – its how we get all sorts of good alcoholic drinks, when sugar is highly concentrated it sucks the moisture right out of bacteria so that it cannot live. Have you ever had white table sugar grow any bacteria or fungus while it's just sitting out on your counter?
When you add the iodine to make a paste, the iodine provides not only a second line of defense, but holds the sugar together so you can pack it around the wound. Otherwise, just sprinkling sugar on the wound would not hold enough sugar to keep the blood and other fluids from diluting enough so that it would feed the infection instead of killing it.
Basically, if you have a soft tissue would like a cut, abscess, or burn, you would put the sugardine on the wound and cover with a bandage. If the wound is leaking, you want to replace the sugar on a regular basis as if you let it get waterlogged; it will do more harm than good.
When making the sugardine, its best to start with the an amount of sugar close to the amount of finished product you want and slowly add the betadine or Povidone until you get the thick peanut butter texture. Otherwise, you will most likely use too much liquid and have to add sugar repeatedly until you end up with way more sugardine that you intended.
 - Table Sugar
 - 10% povidone iodine (or the more expensive but easier to find betadine)
 1. mix one part 10% povidone iodine to two parts white sugar.
 Add more or less sugar to reach desired consistency.
 It should be like thick honey or peanut butter when all mixed together.
 2. Put the sugardine in a container with a lid.
The mixture will need stirring now and then but it will never go bad.

Scientists have solved the mystery of why the world's highest mountains sit near the equator - colder climates are better at eroding peaks than had previously been realised.
Mountains are built by the collisions between continental plates that force land upwards. The fastest mountain growth is around 10mm a year in places such as New Zealand and parts of the Himalayas, but more commonly peaks grow at around 2-3mm per year.
In a study published today in Nature, David Egholm of Aarhus University in Denmark showed that mountain height depends more on ice and glacier coverage than tectonic forces.... At cold locations far from the equator, he found, erosion by snow and ice easily matched any growth due to the Earth's plates crunching together.
At low latitudes, the atmosphere is warm and the snowline is high. "Around the equator, the snowline is about 5,500m at its highest so mountains get up to 7,000m," said Egholm. "There are a few exceptions [that are higher], such as Everest, but extremely few. When you then go to Canada or Chile, the snowline altitude is around 1,000m, so the mountains are around 2.5km."...

What's the Difference Between a Ford 351 Windsor, Cleveland, or Modified Engine?
Despite all having a similar 351 cubic inch displacement, there are a few distinct types of Ford "351" engines, like this Cleveland pictured here. (Image/Jim Smart)
Engines are often identified by their displacement, like the ubiquitous Chevy 350, Mopar 440, or Ford Five-Oh.
But displacement alone isn't always the best differentiator, and nowhere is that more evident than with the Ford 351 engines.
Sure, '351' refers to the engine size, but there were essentially three major versions of the Ford 351—the Windsor, Cleveland, and Modified*.
*Officially, Ford never called these engines 400/351 Modified or 400M/351M. "Modified" was a slang designation originally applied by Ford enthusiasts, and the name just stuck. You'll also hear folks define the "M" as "Michigan" after the engine's original casting plant. The etymology doesn't really matter, it's just a way for us to distinguish it from the other 351 engines.
What version you have is very important to know, because major parts from each engine are not interchangeable.
To clear up any confusion, and to help you avoid buying the wrong parts, here's a quick rundown on each motor so you can know for sure what you've got in your garage.
(Summit Racing's Tom Lynch contributed to this article.)
The Three 351s.
351 Windsor
The 351W is named for the factory in Windsor, Ontario that produced them. It is part of the long-running Ford small block Windsor V8 family, which also includes the venerable Ford 302 (5.0L) V8. It shares the same small block V8 bellhousing pattern and motor mounts of the August 1964+ Windsor engines*. Key differences from the other Windsor engines include a taller deck height, unique firing order, and longer stroke.
*Pre-August 1964 engines (221/260/289) had a narrow 5-bolt bellhousing pattern, also referred to as the early V8 Windsor pattern. All post-August 1964 Windsor engines use a wider 6-bolt pattern (including all 351W), commonly referred to as the small block V8 pattern. The patterns are not interchangeable.
It's far more common than the 351 Cleveland, and though it doesn't have the "high performance" aura of its 351C counterpart, there is plenty of aftermarket support for it. Engine builders and hotrodders have no problems pulling gobs of horsepower out of these engines, and popular upgrades include cylinder heads, camshaft, headers, and intake manifold.
The 351 Windsor is a common sight under the hood of older Ford cars and trucks. (Image/Summit Racing)
351 Cleveland
The 351C was built in Ford's Cleveland, Ohio factory, and is part of the Ford 335 engine family. Back in the day, the 351C was considered the go-to Ford performance engine, thanks to its better-flowing cylinder heads and stronger crankshaft. Ford made both 2V and 4V cylinder head versions for the 351C, with the latter 4V heads being the more performance-oriented versions.
Unfortunately, Ford only produced the 351 Cleveland for five years (in the U.S. at least, Australia got the engine up until 1982). The engine's rarity makes it a more expensive platform for an engine build, though it's capable of making impressive power with the right upgrades. And, for what it's worth, there's still a ton of Blue Oval cache in saying you've got a real Cleveland under your hood.
351 Modified
The 351M is part of the same Ford 335 V8 engine series as the 351 Cleveland. It's based off of the 400 Modified engine (see note on nomenclature in opening paragraph), which was essentially a 351C with a longer stroke. Unlike the 351C however, the 400 block had the bellhousing bolt pattern of 385-series big blocks. It also had a higher deck height to accommodate the longer stroke.
As the 351 Cleveland faded away, Ford engineers reverted to the original 351C's 3.5-inch stroke, yet retained the 400's deck height to create the 351M. The bellhousing bolt pattern on the 351M uses the same pattern as the 385-series big block engines as well. (That means, even though they're related, transmissions, intake manifolds, and other parts may not be interchangeable between a 351C and 351M.)
It's also worth noting that the 351M was only available from the factory with a 2-barrel carburetor.
How can you tell the difference between the 351 engines by looking at them?
Three Easy Visual Differences Between the 351W and 351C/351M.
 - Radiator Hose. On a Cleveland/Modified engine, the radiator hose (and thermostat housing) sticks vertically right out of the top of the engine block. Windsor engines have the radiator hose and thermostat installed into the intake manifold, where it exits from the front of the engine.
 - Valve Covers. Windsor valve covers use 6-bolt covers, whereas the Cleveland/Modified uses 8-bolt covers.
 - Timing Chain. Cleveland/Modified engines have the timing chain recessed into the front of the block itself, and its timing cover is essentially just a flat piece of metal. The Windsor's timing chain attaches to the front of the engine and has an external timing cover typically made of cast aluminum.
Three Easy Visual Differences Between the 351C and 351M
 - Cleveland engines share a bellhousing bolt pattern with the Windsor family. 351M engines use the bellhousing bolt pattern of the 385-series Ford big blocks.
 - Due to a higher deck, the 351M's intake manifold is wider than a 351C.
 - Motor Mounts. 351 Cleveland mounts use two bolts to attach to the engine, whereas the Modified uses three.
If you're not sure what bellhousing you have, check out this handy transmission I.D. chart.
Why the Three Engines?
Though they share displacements, each motor was built and configured for different applications.
For instance, the 4V-351 Cleveland went in the top-tier performance cars, but the 2V351C engines could be found in a smattering of medium-to-full size 1970-74 passenger sedans too. By comparison, the 351M was used in 1975-82 passenger cars, light trucks, and SUVs.
(Ford engineers however, seemed to have stuffed a 351 Windsor in darn-near everything short of their coffee makers.)
And that's what causes the confusion. Swaps between the three engines are common, so you can't always match the engine to the vehicle you found it in. And, given the lack of interchangeability between key components, it's absolutely critical to know what you're wrenching on.
To put it into perspective, Ford offered the 351 Cleveland from 1970-74 (in the U.S.) and the 351 Modified from 1975-82. The 351 Windsor was available from 1969-97, making it by far the most common engine of the trio.
As a final historical footnote, the introduction of the overhead-cam Ford Modular V8 in 1991 meant that the Windsor, Cleveland, and Modified engines represent the final pushrod V8s designed by Ford.

 1. The 'M' actually does stand for 'Modified'. Reference the Ford Master Parts Catalog. Also a point of clarification, the M/400 also had a small bell pattern as well. I can provide pics of both as necessary.
 - Yes if you could I got an 80 f150 4×4 351 mod original engine but I never had a 351 m and not sure what I'm getting into rebuilding it
 - Years ago we called the 351M a "Michigan" or "Midland" because it was from the Midland Michigan plant.
 - Ben you are correct on both statements. And the 400 was not an M, just a 400 351 M was a modified 400
 - Just wondering is the 400 a big block or small people argue with me about all the time
 - Redneckgearhead says:
 Imo Ford never made a "big block" or "small block" that is a general motors designation. Ford had different series engines. But again my opinion.
 - The 335 series engines (C/M) share what's known as the basic architecture, bore spacing, etc., with the Windsor family of engines, commonly known as the Small Block Ford. That would make the C/M engines technically 'small blocks,' albiet different ones from the W's. They are not nearly as big as the FE engines or the 429/460's. Interestingly, the old Y-block engines from 54-64 have the same bore spacing, too. The 260/289 was an updated replacement for the Y-block. The 335 series, with its design dating back to the mid 60's, was originally intended to be the replacement for the 289/302, but government regulations and the oil embargo, mpg concerns, etc., in the early 70's changed all that.
 - Big block. The 351/W is the small block. I have had the (W) in a 93 F150 4×4 & a (C) in a 79 4×4 both were great motors.
 - 400 and down

Why Do Birds Sing At Night? Unraveling The Mystery
When the sun goes down and the moon claims the sky, the world becomes a stage for the hushed whispers of the night. Amidst this quietude, you might find yourself wondering, "Why are the birds still singing?" Well, stick around, and you're about to find out!
Why Do Birds Chirp at Night?
As curious as it may seem, there are a few reasons that explain this feathered nocturnal symphony. But first, we need to understand why birds sing at all.
Birds are the vocal virtuosos of the animal kingdom, singing their hearts out for a multitude of reasons. Whether it's to court a mate, defend their turf, or simply keep in touch with their flock, every bird song tells a story.
Now, let's delve into the mystery of why some birds prefer to serenade the stars.
To delve deeper into this fascinating phenomenon, let's breakdown these reasons with a handy table:
Bird Behavior Explanation
Nocturnal Activity Certain bird species are naturally more active during the night, leading to increased chirping.
Peaceful Environment The quiet of the night allows bird songs to travel further, making them more noticeable.
Light Pollution Artificial city lights can mislead birds into thinking it's still daytime, leading to continued singing.
Early Morning Chorus Some birds start their day well before dawn, resulting in early morning chirping.
The Night Owls of the Bird Kingdom
Not all birds are night songsters. Only a few, like the nightingale or the Northern Mockingbird, are known to belt out tunes under the cloak of darkness. These birds are the nocturnal maestros, as active during the night as a city that never sleeps.
Ever tried to make yourself heard at a bustling party? A bird's daytime struggle is quite similar. The day, with its cacophony of sounds, drowns out their melodious tunes. But at night, their songs can echo through the still air, reaching farther than during the day. It's their moment in the spotlight, their solo in the quiet concert of the night.
For birds living in urban environments, artificial lighting can be a real game changer. This light pollution can trick birds into thinking it's still daylight, causing them to continue their songs into the night.
Some birds, like the industrious robin, begin their dawn chorus long before the first light of day. These early risers start their musical routine as early as 3 am, preparing for the day ahead.
Nighttime Chirping: A Closer Look
Now that we've got the basics down, let's take a closer look at these reasons with the help of a handy table:
Bird Behavior Explanation
Nighttime Activity Some bird species are naturally more active at night and thus chirp more.
Quiet Environment The silence of the night allows bird songs to travel further, making them more noticeable.
Light Pollution City lights can confuse birds into believing it's still daytime, leading to continued singing.
Early Morning Chorus Some birds start their day well before dawn, resulting in early morning chirping.
So, there you have it. The next time you find yourself under a moonlit sky, serenaded by the sweet tunes of the night, you'll know why these feathered friends are singing their hearts out.
The nighttime chirping of birds might seem like a quirk of nature, but there's method to the madness. Whether it's making the most of the quiet night, dealing with city lights, or getting an early start to the day, these midnight minstrels have their reasons.
Artificial city lights can deceive birds into thinking it's still daytime, leading to their continued singing into the night. This phenomenon, known as light pollution, has a profound impact on bird behavior.
Light Pollution and Bird Behavior
Light pollution can alter bird behavior in numerous ways. It can disrupt their natural rhythms and lead to changes in their singing patterns.
Mitigating the Impact of Light Pollution on Birds
Mitigating the impact of light pollution on birds is crucial to ensure their well-being. Simple steps, like reducing unnecessary lighting, can go a long way.
This topic demands further exploration, but for now, let's pause and consider the key points we've discussed.
Key Takeaways
 1. Not all birds chirp at night. Only a few species, like nightingales and Northern Mockingbirds, are known to be active nocturnally.
 2. Birds might chirp at night to make the most of the quiet environment that allows their songs to travel further.
 3. Light pollution in urban areas can cause birds to chirp at night due to confusion between artificial light and daylight.
 4. Some birds start their chorus before dawn, resulting in what might be perceived as nighttime chirping.
 5. Nighttime Activity: Only a select few bird species like nightingales and Northern Mockingbirds are known to be active nocturnally.
 6. Advantage of the Quietude: Birds might chirp at night to make the most of the quiet environment that allows their songs to resonate far and wide.
 7. City Lights: Artificial light pollution in urban areas can confuse birds, causing them to continue their songs into the night.
 8. Dawn Chorus: Some birds start their songs well before dawn, leading to what might be perceived as nighttime chirping.
In conclusion birds chirping at night may seem like a strange phenomenon, but it is actually a crucial part of their behavior and biology. Nocturnal birds have adapted to living in low light conditions and have developed a variety of unique behaviors and characteristics to help them thrive during the night.
By communicating with each other through calls and songs, birds are able to navigate, establish territory, and attract mates. Nocturnal chirping is not only important for communication but also has other benefits, such as helping birds avoid predators and navigate in the dark.
So, the next time you hear birds chirping at night, take a moment to appreciate the incredible adaptations and behaviors that allow them to thrive during the dark hours.

Prohormones for strength and cutting, best prohormones for cutting
Prohormones for strength and cutting
The efficacy and safety of these prohormones are not well established but are promoted to have the same androgenic effects on building muscle mass and strength as anabolic-androgenic steroids. The effect of HGH has been compared with that of cortisol in patients with metabolic syndrome (16). The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of HGH on the effects of repeated sprint exercise testing, best prohormones for weight loss. A group of healthy subjects was included in this study. The total distance sprinting time of 26 weeks with a duration of 48 hours per week was measured by the accelerometer, average weight loss using clenbuterol. The time was obtained from 0 hours to 120 minutes after exhaustion, which represented the time to fatigue measured after repeated sprints for 8 repetitions (6), peptides when cutting. The subject's resting energy expenditure was measured by the doubly labeled water method after completing 3 h at 40% of anaerobic capacity, as is done to measure resting energy expenditure in subjects following exercise protocols (16). Results One week after the start of the study, subjects were given 3 oral (3 mg per day) doses of HGH and a placebo, prohormones for strength and cutting. At 48 hours, a further 1, liquid clenbuterol dosage for fat loss.3 or 3, liquid clenbuterol dosage for fat loss.0 mg per day was added to this 3 day supplementation protocol as appropriate, liquid clenbuterol dosage for fat loss. At 50 hours, the 3 daily doses of HGH and placebo were replaced with a total of 6 oral doses of 5 mg per day and 1.2 mg per day respectively. The doses of 3, clenbuterol weight loss results.6 and 4, clenbuterol weight loss results.9 mg per day were repeated with placebo over 2 weeks to determine if the overall response was different to the first 3 doses as previously defined, clenbuterol weight loss results. During the entire study, subjects had average baseline training intensity of 80% of their maximum voluntary work (i.e. maximal voluntary work of 8% per day). The subjects performed each session at 90% body weight for the maximum 3 consecutive sprint sessions. Both the maximal and interquartile range (IQR) values of HGH or placebo used in this study were in the lower category of human growth hormone metabolites (21), average weight loss using clenbuterol. The mean (SD) volume of blood was 5.6 ml on the day of the study. Of these participants, 17% tested positive for HGH metabolites that were excreted with urine or by body fat. One of the excluded subjects reported a slight rise in levels of HGH metabolites when tested at 4 h post-supplementation, steroid cycle for fat loss and muscle gain. HGH concentrations did not differ by age on the day of testing (18). On the day of testing, all subjects were tested for a baseline questionnaire assessing total daily energy expenditure (4 h before) and for time during which they felt most fatigued, peptides when cutting.
Best prohormones for cutting
Here is the best prohormone stack for muscle mass and cutting, using the prohormones we discussed above: Androsterone and ArimistaneAndrosterone is a plant hormone that acts on muscle cells to promote the growth, remodeling, and maintenance of muscles, along with the maintenance of blood flow to muscles and nerves. Androsterone is primarily found in the ovaries and is generally considered a female steroid hormone. It has been shown in studies that both androsterone and arimistane produce the same fat burning effects in the body as testosterone, as well as an increase in the level of the adipose tissue-derived hormone leptin. Furthermore, a supplement with 1,200 mg of androsterone daily can be compared to a 1000 mg daily dose of testosterone, and a 1,200 mg daily dose of arimistane can be compared to the same testosterone dosage, can you cut prednisone pills in half. However, androsterone has a much more powerful and more specific effect on the fat burning actions of the adipose tissue than arimistane. Androsterone is a very potent and specific steroid hormone, and arimistane has a similar effectiveness in this regard, although it is not as specific asand the exact reasons for that will be discussed later on. Now we have a pretty good idea as to how you can take these prohormones to maximize your fat loss benefit, so let's get right into the benefits themselves and why they work that way, cutting steroids uk. Androsterone and Arimistane Benefits We discussed the benefits of using androsterone and arimistane together during the fat loss cycle: androsterone increases body fat loss by increasing the efficiency androstercore improves lipolysis androstercosone decreases body fat loss androstercumol has an inhibitory effect on the lipolytic effects of arimistane and a strengthening effect androstercide has no impact on lipolytic activity Androsterone, Arimistane, and Androstercide Androsterone has been shown to be a good fat burner and an adequate substitute for other compounds and combinations of ingredients which may also work to increase fat loss. For example, Inhospitable, which is sold under the name Prohormone X3: androsterone increased fat loss by up to 50% and increased the total daily dose of arimistane by up to 50% in both males and females
Fitness enthusiasts and bodybuilders alike cannot stop phantom the potential of Clenbuterol as a weight loss steroidbecause it is simply too good for its weight. The amount of Clenbuterol available is incredibly low and only one small batch was provided for the study. The researchers have no intention of releasing another supply, and believe the drug will remain on the market. Clenbuterol is marketed under brand names such as Clenbuterone and Clenbuterol X. Because Clen and Clen are similar substances, they must differ in order to be a true weight loss drug. They cannot be marketed side by side because Clenbuterol is so close to Clen and Clen's own ingredient, while Clenbuterol X contains only Clenbuterol for its own benefit. For example, Clen buterone is a generic formula and therefore contains no Clenbuterol and therefore no true weight loss steroid. Clenbuterol must compete head-to-head in terms of its own nutritional value with Clenbuterone. The researchers said it is critical that consumers learn about the nutritional benefits of the drugs for their own weight loss to prevent misuse of Clenbuterol or Clen and Clen's own drug ingredient. The researchers are currently working to verify the authenticity of the sample contained in the sample provided to MDC by Listerine and the samples used in the review have the same content as the sample and the lab used to produce the data which were originally analyzed by these researchers. "All of this research is valuable and should inform the next generation of researchers who will be taking Clenbuterol and other weight loss drugs as supplements and the future of research. To those in our research who need to use Clenbuterol, we thank you for making us a part of this research. Clenbuterol is the first of a new generation of weight loss steroids that will allow us to learn more about the benefits of Clenbuterol and provide a clear path forward into the future for this class," said Dr. Stephen A. S. Smith, Chief Medical Officer of Listerine. This analysis did not evaluate the effects on health due to the use of the weight loss drugs being used. ✔enhances strength, recovery, and muscle gains.

Principal Issues: 1. Who can claim a share of the qualifying expenditures incurred for common areas of a strata where there is a change in ownership of the strata unit during the HRTC eligibility period - the previous owner or the current owner?
2. How are the qualifying expenditures allocated between the previous owner and the current owner of the unit, if a unit changes its owners during the HRTC eligibility period?
Position: 1. Both, the previous owner who sold the unit and the current owner who bought the unit, may claim their share of the qualifying expenditures incurred by the strata council while they were the owner of the strata unit, providing all of the HRTC requirements are otherwise met.
2. Generally, the qualifying expenditures incurred for common areas are allocated to strata unit owners based on the governing documents and/or special resolutions of the strata corporation.

The Human Body
Source: Museum Victoria
Explore the wonder and fascination of the human body.
Featured in the exhibition are a number of carefully prepared plastinated specimes of human organs provided by the University of Melbourne's Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology. These provide a rare opportunity to observe the true nature of our bodies and how they work.
Take a close look at the ways in which our understanding of the body's internal structure has developed and changed over the years. This exhibition examines how we look at the human body, what we observe and how we interpret what is revealed. The wonderful diversity of maps and images produced both today and in the past are on display, as well as the techniques used to generate them.
Highlights include interactive DNA displays, historic post-mortem tools, early x-ray machines, 'Tjeby' - an ancient Egyptian mummy and 'William' – a papier mache anatomical model made in the 1850s by French anatomist, Dr. Louis Thomas Gerome Auzoux (1797–1881).

For Primary 5 – Primary 7 Pupils
The local to Highland Neil Gunn Writing Competition is extending its submission date for P5-P7 children across Highland until the end of term (April 5th) to provide schools with the time to get their submissions in. This is a great opportunity for children to create a piece of writing for a competition which celebrates the life of the Scottish writer Neil Gunn.
The theme for P5 – P7 is a quote from Neil Gunn's writing:
"He was wakened by a loud knocking at the door." (The Well at the World's End)
Children in P5-P7 can write a piece which is inspired by this quote, presented in either poetry or prose.


within a Dozer configuration into a target field instead of using the value of a source field. This is equivalent to constant mapping in other mapping frameworks, where can you assign a literal value to a target field. To use a variable mapping, simply define a variable within your mapping configuration and then map from the VariableMapper class into your target field of choice:
<mappings xmlns="_URL_
 xmlns:xsi="_URL_
 xsi:schemaLocation="_URL_ _URL_
 <configuration>
 <variables>
 <variable name="CUST_ID">ACME-SALES</variable>
 </variables>
 </configuration>
 <mapping>
 <class-a>org.apache.camel.component.dozer.VariableMapper</class-a>
 <class-b>org.example.Order</class-b>
 <field custom-converter-id="_variableMapping" custom-converter-param="${CUST_ID}">
 literal
 custId
 </field>
 </mapping>
</mappings>
Custom Mappings
Custom mappings allow you to define your own logic for how a source field is mapped to a target field. They are similar in function to Dozer customer converters, with two notable differences:
 - You can have multiple converter methods in a single class with custom mappings.
 - There is no requirement to implement a Dozer-specific interface with custom mappings.
A custom mapping is declared by using the built-in '_customMapping' converter in your mapping configuration. The parameter to this converter has the following syntax:
[class-name][,method-name]
Method name is optional - the Dozer component will search for a method that matches the input and output types required for a mapping. An example custom mapping and configuration are provided below.
public class CustomMapper {
 // All customer ids must be wrapped in "[ ]"
 public Object mapCustomer(String customerId) {
 return "[" + customerId + "]";
 }
}
<mappings xmlns="_URL_
 xmlns:xsi="_URL_
 xsi:schemaLocation="_URL_ _URL_
 <mapping>
 <class-a>org.example.A</class-a>
 <class-b>org.example.B</class-b>
 <field custom-converter-id="_customMapping"
 custom-converter-param="org.example.CustomMapper,mapCustomer">
 header.customerNum
 custId
 </field>
 </mapping>
</mappings>
Expression Mappings
Expression mappings allow you to use the powerful language capabilities of Camel to evaluate an expression and assign the result to a target field in a mapping. Any language that Camel supports can be used in an expression mapping. Basic examples of expressions include the ability to map a Camel message header or exchange property to a target field or to concatenate multiple source fields into a target field. The syntax of a mapping expression is:
[language]:[expression]
An example of mapping a message header into a target field:
<mappings xmlns="_URL_
 xmlns:xsi="_URL_
 xsi:schemaLocation="_URL_ _URL_
 <mapping>
 <class-a>org.apache.camel.component.dozer.ExpressionMapper</class-a>
 <class-b>org.example.B</class-b>
 <field custom-converter-id="_expressionMapping" custom-converter-param="simple:${header.customerNumber}">
 expression
 custId
 </field>
 </mapping>
</mappings>
Note that any properties within your expression must be escaped with "\" to prevent an error when Dozer attempts to resolve variable values defined using the EL.
Dozer Type Conversion
The dozer type conversion is deprecated. Do not use.
Dozer is a fast and flexible framework for mapping back and forth between Java Beans. Coupled with Camel's automatic type conversion, it's a formidable tool for dealing object to object mapping headaches that crop up in enterprise integration projects.
To explain how Dozer can be used within Camel we'll use the following example of a simple Customer Support Service. The initial version of the Service defined a 'Customer' object used with a very flat structure.
Legacy Customer Service Class
public class Customer {
 private String firstName;
 private String lastName;
 private String street;
 private String zip;
 public Customer() {}
 public Customer(String firstName, String lastName, String zip, String street) {
 this.firstName = firstName;
 this.lastName = lastName;
 this.zip = zip;
 this.street = street;
 }
 public String getFirstName() {
 return firstName;
 }
 public void setFirstName(String firstName) {
 this.firstName = firstName;
 }
 ... getters and setters for each field
In the next version it was decided to structure the data better in the model by moving the address data into its own type, with the resulting domain object ending up looking like the below.
Next Gen Customer object
public class Customer {
 private String firstName;
 private String lastName;
 private Address address;
 public Customer() {}
 public Customer(String firstName, String lastName, Address address) {
 this.firstName = firstName;
 this.lastName = lastName;
 this.address = address;
 }
 ....
public class Address {
 private String zipCode;
 private String streetName;
 public Address() {}
 public Address(String zipCode, String streetName) {
 this.zipCode = zipCode;
 this.streetName = streetName;
 }
Much nicer! But as often occurs, the previous version of the service, with the old flat 'Customer' object, was in production with a client and the project must support the legacy interface. To support both versions, we must add a mechanism to convert between the old Customer service type and the new Customer domain type and back again. It would be a simple matter to write a custom converter class to map between them, but this may not be the only service/domain inconsistency and these tedious and error prone custom mappings could quickly start to add up, and bugs with them.
To a large extent the two objects share an identical structure, with only the address representation being different. It would be very helpful if there were a practical way to automate this kind of mapping, such that the similar properties could get mapped automatically and only the inconsistencies requiring custom mapping.
This is where Dozer comes in; it uses reflection to map data between two bean types using a set of simple mapping rules. Where no rule is specified, Dozer will attempt to map between them by using matching properties of two beans. In this way, focus can be given to the inconsistencies between the beans i.e. the address properties, knowing that Dozer will automatically match and convert the others.
Configuring Dozer Type Converter
Dozer's configuration is extremely flexible and many mapping scenarios are covered here. For our simple example, the configuration looks like the following.
mapping.xml
<mappings xmlns="_URL_
 xmlns:xsi="_URL_
 xsi:schemaLocation="_URL_ _URL_
 <mapping>
 <class-a>org.apache.camel.converter.dozer.service.Customer</class-a>
 <class-b>org.apache.camel.converter.dozer.model.Customer</class-b>
 <field>
 street
 address.streetName
 </field>
 <field>
 zip
 address.zipCode
 </field>
 </mapping>
</mappings>
Support for Dozer in Camel Type Converter
Camel provides a simple mechanism to integrate Dozer Mappers with it's own powerful Type Conversion framework. Its configured by creating an instance of DozerTypeConverterLoader providing it the camel context and an optional Dozer mapper.
If no mapper is supplied, Camel's registry will be searched for suitable instances. The loader will query the Dozer Mapper for the types it converts and register them with Camel's type conversion framework to be handled by the mapper.
Limitation
The Camel Dozer type converter does not support having the same type conversion pairs in different mapping ids (eg map-id) in Dozer.
In Java it can be configured as follows:
Mapper mapper = DozerBeanMapperBuilder.create()
 .withMappingFiles("mapping.xml")
 .build();
new DozerTypeConverterLoader(camelContext, mapper);
Or in Spring XML:
<bean id="dozerConverterLoader" class="org.apache.camel.converter.dozer.DozerTypeConverterLoader">
 <argument index="0" ref="my

Nebraska DHHS Emergency Preparedness
Strategic National Stockpile
The Strategic National Stockpile (SNS) is a national resource of medical supplies ready and waiting to help states handle public health emergencies. It includes pharmaceuticals, medical supplies and medical equipment. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has these "stockpiles" located around the country so states can have access to the supplies they need within 12 hours of requesting them.
DHHS' Role Warehouse
Receiving, shipping and storing the stockpile is a complex operation involving a lot of people from DHHS, other state agencies and the federal government as well. At DHHS we've recruited approximately 40 people to help with the process and are always looking for more volunteers. Among other duties, our employees are responsible for unloading the shipment, managing inventory, maintaining quality control, and repackaging supplies for further distribution.
The SNS Program is an essential response component of CDC's larger Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Initiative. For more information, see the CDC Public Health Emergency Preparedness and Response Website.

"Lampwork" means glass that is formed and decorated in a torch flame hot enough to melt the glass.
The "lamp" in lampwork came from the oil lamps and blowpipes originally used in seventeenth century France and Italy. Blowing by mouth or with a bellows into an oil lamp flame with a small pipe makes just enough heat to soften and form the softer types of glass. I'm always amazed at what great work the early lampworkers were able to do with such a minimal amount of equipment.
Today lampworking is usually done with a fuel gas and oxygen torch and a few hand tools. The tricks and moves used to form and decorate the glass haven't changed much in Millenniums.
Hot glassworking skills came to us from a long history starting with the Syrians around 1700 BC, the Egyptians around 1450 BC, the Chinese around 550 BC, the Romans at the turn of the first millennium, and with the French, German, Italian, Indian and Islamic folks bringing us up to the present.

Let us make in-depth study of the components of water potential and osmotic relations of cells according to water potential.
Water potential term was coined by Slatyer and Taylor (1960). It is modern term which is used in place of DPD. The movement of water in plants cannot be accurately explained in terms of difference in concentration or in other linear expression.
The best way to express spontaneous movement of water from one region to another is in terms of the difference of free energy of water between two regions (from higher free energy level to lower free energy level).
According to principles of thermodynamics, every components of system is having definite amount of free energy which is measure of potential work which the system can do. Water Potential is the difference in the free energy or chemical potential per unit molar volume of water in system and that of pure water at the same temperature and pressure.
It is represented by Greek letter or the value of is measured in bars, pascals or atmospheres. Water always moves from the area of high water potential to the area of low water potential. Water potential of pure water at normal temperature and pressure is zero. This value is considered to be the highest. The presence of solid particles reduces the free energy of water and decreases the water potential. Therefore, water potential of a solution is always less than zero or it has negative value.
Components of Water Potential:
A typical plant cell consists of a cell wall, a vacuole filled with an aqueous solution and a layer of cytoplasm between vacuole and cell wall. When such a cell is subjected to the movement of water then many factors begin to operate which ultimately determine the water potential of cell sap.
For solution such as contents of cells, water potential is determined by 3 major sets of internal factors:
(a) Matrix potential (Ψm)
(b) Solute potential or osmotic potential (Ψs)
(c) Pressure potential (Ψp)
Water potential in a plant cell or tissue can be written as the sum of matrix potential (due to binding of water to cell and cytoplasm) the solute potential (due to concentration of dissolve solutes which by its effect on the entropy components reduces the water potential) and pressure potential (due to hydrostatic pressure, which by its effect on energy components increases the water potential).
Ψw = Ψs + Ψp + Ψm
In case of plant cell, m is usually disregarded and it is not significant in osmosis. Hence, the above given equation is written as follows.
Ψw = Ψs + Ψp
Solute Potential (Ψs):
It is defined as the amount by which the water potential is reduced as the result of the presence of the solute, s are always in negative values and it is expressed in bars with a negative sign.
Pressure Potential (Ψp):
Plant cell wall is elastic and it exerts a pressure on the cellular contents. As a result the inward wall pressure, hydrostatic pressure is developed in the vacuole it is termed as turgor pressure. The pressure potential is usually positive and operates in plant cells as wall pressure and turgor pressure. Its magnitude varies between +5 bars (during day) and +15 bars (during night).
Important Aspects of Water Potential (Ψw):
(1) Pure water has the maximum water potential which by definition is zero.
(2) Water always moves from a region of higher Ψw to one of lower Ψw.
(3) All solutions have lower w than pure water.
(4) Osmosis in terms of water potential occurs as a movement of water molecules from the region of higher water potential to a region of lower water potential through a semi permeable membrane.
Osmotic Relations of Cells According to Water Potential:
In case of fully turgid cell:
The net movement of water into the cell is stopped. The cell is in equilibrium with the water outside. Consequently the water potential in this case becomes zero. Water potential is equal to osmotic potential + pressure potential.
In case of flaccid cell:
The turgor becomes zero. A cell at zero turgor has an osmotic potential equal to its water potential.
In case of plasmolysed cell:
When the vacuolated parenchymatous cells are placed in solutions of sufficient strength, the protoplast decreases in volume to such an extent that they shrink away from the cell wall and the cells are plasmolysed. Such cells are negative value of pressure potential (negative turgor pressure).
1. Suppose there are two cells A and B, cell A has osmotic potential = -16 bars, pressure potential = 6 bars and cell B as osmotic potential = – 10 bars and pressure potential = 2 bars. What is the direction of movement of water?
Water potential of cell A = Ψs +Ψp = – 16 + 6 = – 10 bars
Ψ of cell B = -10 + 2 = -8 bars.
As movement of water is from higher water potential (lower DPD) to lower water potential (higher DPD), hence the movement of water is from cell B to cell A.
2. If osmotic potential of a cell is – 14 bars and its pressure potential is 7 bars. What would be its water potential?
We know Ψw = Ψs + Ψp
Given, osmotic potential (Ψs) is – 14 bars.
Pressure potentials (Ψp) is 7 bars
Water potential = (-14) + 5 = – 9 bars.

There are two parts to the problem. First, you need to make the embedded HTML
markup appear as character data inside of an XML field when the XML is parsed.
Second you need the XSL processor to preserve the character information and
not try to escape special characters (e.g. convert "<" to "<") in the output
when it does the "value-of" operation on that field.
Use the CDATA (character data) wrapper to solve problem 1. The syntax for
this is:

To solve problem 2, use the "disable-output-escaping" flag in your XSL. This
flag is supported for the key things like "value-of" that dump XML field values
into the ouput.
Example (assuming proper node context):
BTW, this is a perfectly reasonable thing to be doing. There are many contexts
where the value of an XML field really does need some internal markup preserved,
for data integrity reasons at least. It also makes sense that you need to tell
the XML parser and the XSL processor explicitly in those cases that the "markup"
is part of the data for that field.

}\cdot \prod_{0< t_{k}< t}2^{\sin\frac{\pi}{2}(k-4)}=2^{0} \cdot \prod_{0< t_{k}< t}2^{\sin\frac{\pi}{2}k}=f(t), \end{aligned}$$
which implies that \(f(t)\) is a periodic function with period 4.
Since \(\alpha_{1}(t)=9+\sin^{2}\pi t\), \(\alpha_{2}(t)=9+\cos^{2}\pi t\), \(\beta _{1}(t)=5+\cos^{2}\pi t\), \(\beta_{2}(t)=5+\sin^{2}\pi t\), we have \(\alpha_{1}^{-}=\alpha_{2}^{-}=9\), \(\beta_{1}^{+}=\beta_{2}^{+}=6\), and thus \(\frac{ \beta_{1}^{+}\beta_{2}^{+}}{\alpha_{1}^{-}\alpha_{2}^{-}}=\frac {4}{9}<1\).
It is obvious that
$$\begin{aligned}& p_{11}(t)=\prod_{t-e^{|\cos\pi t|}\leq t_{k}< t}2^{\sin\frac{\pi}{2}k} \biggl(\frac{3}{16}+\frac{1}{2}|\sin\pi t| \biggr), \\& p_{12}(t)=\prod_{t-e^{|\sin\pi t|}\leq t_{k}< t}2^{\sin\frac{\pi }{2}k} \biggl(\frac{5}{8}-\frac{1}{2}|\sin\pi t| \biggr), \\& p_{21}(t)=\prod_{t-e^{|\sin\pi t|}\leq t_{k}< t}2^{\sin\frac{\pi}{2}k} \biggl(\frac{3}{16}+\frac{1}{2}|\cos\pi t| \biggr), \\& p_{22}(t)=\prod_{t-e^{|\cos\pi t|}\leq t_{k}< t}2^{\sin\frac{\pi }{2}k} \biggl(\frac{5}{8}-\frac{1}{2}|\cos\pi t| \biggr), \\& q_{11}(t)=\prod_{0< t_{k}< t-e^{|\cos\pi t|}}2^{\sin\frac{\pi}{2}k} \biggl(\frac{7}{3}+|\sin\pi t| \biggr), \\& q_{12}(t)=\prod _{0< t_{k}< t-e^{|\sin\pi t|}}2^{\sin\frac{\pi}{2}k} \biggl(\frac{5}{2}+| \cos \pi t| \biggr), \\& q_{21}(t)=\prod_{0< t_{k}< t-e^{|\sin\pi t|}}2^{\sin\frac{\pi}{2}k} \biggl(\frac{7}{3}+|\cos\pi t| \biggr), \\& q_{22}(t)=\prod _{0< t_{k}< t-e^{|\cos\pi t|}}2^{\sin\frac{\pi}{2}k} \biggl(\frac{5}{2}+| \sin \pi t| \biggr). \end{aligned}$$
Therefore,
$$\alpha_{i}^{-}-\beta_{i}^{+}-\sum _{j=1}^{2} p_{ij}^{+}= \frac {3}{4}>0,\quad i=1,2. $$
It follows from Theorem 3.2 that Equation (4.1) with initial condition (4.2) has a unique 4-periodic solution. This fact is verified by the numerical simulation in Figure 1.

The dynamic behavior of the system ( 4.1 ) with the initial condition ( 4.2 ). (a) Time-series of the \(y_{1}\), \(y_{2}\) of system (4.1) without impulsive effects for \(t\in[0,20]\). (b) Phase portrait of solutions of system (4.1) without impulsive effects for \(t\in[3,20]\). (c) Times-series of the \(y_{1}\), \(y_{2}\) of impulsive system (4.1) for \(t\in[0,20]\). (d) Phase portrait of solutions of impulsive system (4.1) for \(t\in[5,20]\).
Remark 4.1
System (4.1) is a simple form of impulsive Nicholson-type system with delays. Since \(q_{11}^{-}=q_{21}^{-}=\frac{7}{6}>1\), \(q_{12}^{-}= q_{22}^{-}=\frac{5}{4}>1\), it is clear that the condition of Theorem 3.1 in [11] and Theorem 2.1 in [12] are not satisfied. Therefore, all the results obtained in [11, 12] and the references therein cannot be applicable to system (4.1). This implies that the results of this paper are essentially new.
5 Conclusion
In this paper, a class of Nicholson-type delay systems with impulsive effects are investigated. First, an equivalence relation between the solution (or positive periodic solution) of a Nicholson-type delay system with impulses and that of the corresponding Nicholson-type delay system without impulses is established. Then, by applying the cone fixed point theorem, some criteria are established for the existence and uniqueness of a positive periodic solution of the given system. The fixed point theorem in cones is very popular in investigation of positive periodic solutions to impulsive functional differential equations [20, 21]. Our results imply that under the appropriate linear periodic impulsive perturbations, the Nicholson-type delay systems with impulses preserve the original periodic property of the Nicholson-type delay systems without impulses. Finally, an example and its simulation are provided to illustrate the main results. It is worth noting that there are only very few results [17] on Nicholson-type delay systems with impulses, and our results extend and improve greatly some earlier works reported in the literature. Furthermore, our results are important in applications of periodic oscillatory Nicholson-type delay systems with impulsive control.

Mixer Conversion Loss Measurement
This video shows the basic operations of the Anritsu VectorStar and the, external signal generator, mixer measurement wizard for performing a mixer conversion loss measurement. Frequency translated devices are key components of any communication system, whether they are up-converters, down-converters, or basic mixers. Since their input and output frequencies are different, they require special features and setups for vector network analyzer (VNA) measurements. With the frequency offset capability of VectorStar VNAs, where the source and receiver are independently controlled, and the option to include a second source, such measurements are possible and can be easily configured.

This paper reports a numerical investigation of a periodic metallic structure sandwiched between two quartz plates. The volume comprised between the quartz plates and the metallic structure is infiltrated by a mixture of azo-dye-doped liquid crystal. The exposure to a low power visible light beam modifies the azo dye molecular configuration, thus allowing the wavelength shift of the resonance of the system. The wavelength shift depends on the geometry of the periodic structure and it also depends on the intensity of the visible light beam.

President Barack Obama rarely utters the words "poor" or "poverty" in his speeches and public communications, putting him at the bottom of the list of modern presidents who discussed the issue, according to a new study.
The study by the Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate at Georgetown University found that of all the presidents dating back to John F. Kennedy, Obama ranks last in speaking about the poor, having mentioned them in just 26 percent of his public comments during his presidency, even though 46 million Americans are living in poverty with record numbers of people on food stamps, The Washington Times reported
By comparison, former Republican President George H.W. Bush was second to last on the scale at 50 percent. The president who talked most often about the poor was Democrat Lyndon Johnson, who in 84 percent of his public comments mentioned people living in poverty, the Times reported.
According to one expert, however, Obama's lack of rhetoric on the issue is not a reflection on his priorities.
"There may not be as many specific pronouncements on poverty as an issue, but I think that his actions at addressing the well-being of people at the bottom of the economic ladder come from there," Rachel Black, a specialist on policies for low-income families at the nonpartisan New America Foundation, told the Times.
Black said on a number of legislative fronts, the president has proven his commitment to protecting poor families, including his support for an increase in the minimum wage, his opposition to cuts in the food stamp program, and the enactment of Obamacare. Black also noted that poor families, along with most other income levels, benefited last year when the Bush-era tax cuts were extended for families earning less than $450,000.

Movement Career Stories
Kudaja Navarrete's career trajectory is not what you'd expect. She was a successful retail manager juggling work and school, but she eventually dropped out of college to focus on pursuing upper management.
Ultimately, it was the skills that Kudaja honed as a manager – and not what she acquired in a classroom – that helped land her a dream position as Operations Manager at Detroit Action. Initially, Kudaja was unsure she has the right qualifications for the job, particularly because she didn't have a college degree.
However, Kudaja's years moving up the ranks in retail management meant that she could take in new information quickly, analyze it, and act on it. Her "non-traditional" background meant she had a diverse skillset and fresh perspective that Detroit Action knew it needed.
"It's my way of paying it forward." Gregory Cendana shares the experiences that led him to pursue movement work, from his childhood to his time understanding the impact of affirmative action at UCLA. He describes the importance of being a lifelong student as the nature of activism work shifts over time.
Greg emphasizes the need to learn from past events and those with experience. His work is grounded in identifying the root causes of inequality and recognizing the interconnected nature of movement work. He passes on advice to those who are interested in movement work, including a reminder to create space for joy and healing.

- Single signal switches activation of genes in a sequential order
- Each state ensures that the previous state is switched off
- Each state 'primes' the next state to make it ready to be switched on
- Signal need only be pulsed for a short time
- First signal pulse is sent, activating On1, On2 and On3
- On2 and On3 cannot yet do anything
- On1 activates Gene1 (which maintains itself) and Prime2 (which also maintains itself)
- After the signal pulse, On1, On2 and On3 will degrade. This leaves Prime2 and Gene1 in the system
- Therefore, the system state is Gene 1 = ON, Gene 2 = OFF, Gene 3 = OFF
- Second signal pulse is sent, activating On1, On2 and On3
- On3 cannot yet do anything
- On1 effectively does nothing because it tells Prime2 and Gene1 to switch on but they already are on
- On2 combined with Prime2 activates Gene2 (which maintains itself) and Prime3 (which maintains itself)
- Gene2 also activates Off1 (self-maintaining), which represses Gene1 and On1
- After the signal pulse, On1, On2 and On3 degrade, leaving Prime 3 and Gene2 in the system
- Therefore the system state is Gene 1 = OFF, Gene 2 ON, Gene 3 OFF
- Third signal pulse is sent, activating On1, On2 and On3
- On1 is repressed
- On2 would activate Prime3 and Gene2 but they are already active
- On3 combined with Prime3 activates Gene3 (which maintains itself)
- Gene3 activates Off2 (self-maintaining), which represses Gene2 and On2
- On1, On2 and On3 degrade after the pulse is stopped, leaving Gene3 in the system
- Therefore the system state is Gene 1 = OFF, Gene 2 = OFF, Gene 3 = ON and we have a system that goes from 0→1→2→3 with a pulse of a single signal.
- The kinetics of this model would be very important, Prime2 cannot accumulate after the first pulse until On2 degrades
- Possible solution, make On2 be activated by Signal + Prime2
- Would it be possible to make all the On proteins the same, with just the Prime protein being the determinant of which state gets turned on next?
- Should the Off1 protein be activated directly by On2/Prime2 to decrease the time until Gene1 is switched off?
- 1. It is great to see a non-binary clock model. How modular will this design be (ie. Can it be easily recombined with other modules for functions other than telling time?)
- 2. If we want to time above 3, what is needed (this again is related to modularity and extension)?
- 3. If this is going to be implemented in a single cell, your pulsing and processing of the entire gene1,2, and 3 expression need to finish prior DNA replication (ie ~ 20mins in E.coli). This also goes to say that lloyd's model001 will encounter this problem too because it is a single cell implementation. Lloyd's model002 is currently underway and it is a B0, B1, B2 cells (ie multicells) approach. Can you explain if this will be a single cell or multicell model?
- 4. How different is your implementation to Elowitz repressilator that also did gene1 ON, gene2 OFF, gene3 OFF, AND THEN gene1 OFF, gene2 ON, gene3 OFF AND THEN gene1 OFF, gene2 OFF and gene3 ON in a cycle manner?
- 5. How does your model deal with asynchronous gene expression responses?

In this exercise, various calculations of the electronic band structure of a one-dimensional crystal are performed with the Kronig-Penney (KP) model. This model has an analytical solution and therefore allows for simple calculations. More realistic models always require extensive numeric calculations, often on the fastest computers available. The electronic band structure is directly related to many macroscopic properties of the material and therefore of large interest. Nowadays, hypothetical (nonexistent) materials are often investigated by band structure calculations – and if they show attractive properties, researchers try to prepare these materials experimentally. The KP model is a strongly simplified one-dimensional quantum mechanical model of a crystal. Despite of the simplifications, the electronic band structure obtained from this model shares many features with band structures that result from more sophisticated models.
The exercise will enable you to learn the following:
1. Understand the concept of energy bands and energy gaps, their variations as a function of the size of the periodic potentials and energy

12th December 2003 – "Evolution by innovation" is the slogan of PROline, the current generation of electromagnetic flow-measuring systems by Endress+Hauser that has continued its 25 years of success for the last three years. Now, Promag 10, a basic device, will be launched to complement it.
In the last few years, the electromagnetic measuring principle has established itself in the industry whenever the flow of aqueous media has to be determined in a highly precise manner.
Endress+Hauser is leading in this market because of its PROline Promag. In fact, the PROline range represents the perfect continuance of the MID success story at Endress+Hauser. PROline Promag is a globally introduced and widely known term guaranteeing quality and reliability and enjoying wide-spread acceptance among customers and competitors alike.
The PROline concept is based on sensors for specific applications in the water/waste-water industry, the process industry, or for hygienic applications. Independently from the sensor type, you can chose a transmitter that can be individually tailored to your requirements as to signal processing and integration into process-control systems. Promag 50 is the standard transmitter, while Promag 53 is used in applications with an extended profile of functions. The transmitter portfolio is now rounded off with Promag 10, limited to the basic functions of an electromagnetic measuring device suitable for the industry. Basic devices are used at measuring-points that do not have to meet higher than average measuring demands and where measured variables are shown in analogue form on the process-control level. Typical examples of such applications are found in the fresh-water and waste-water treatment industries.

A ball-peen (also spelled ball-pein) hammer, also known as a machinist's hammer, is a type of peening hammer used in metalworking. It is distinguished from a cross-peen hammer, diagonal-peen hammer, point-peen hammer, or chisel-peen hammer by having a hemispherical head. It is commonly used as a tool for metalworking.
Though the process of peening (surface hardening by impact) has become rarer in metal fabrication, the ball-peen hammer remains useful for many tasks, such as striking punches and chisels (usually performed with the flat face of the hammer). The peening face is useful for rounding off edges of metal pins and fasteners, such as rivets.
Variants include the straight-peen, diagonal-peen, and cross-peen hammer. These hammers have a wedge-shaped head instead of a ball-shaped head. This wedge shape spreads the metal perpendicular to the edge of the head. The straight-peen hammer has the wedge oriented parallel to the hammer's handle, while the cross-peen hammer's wedge is oriented perpendicular. The diagonal-peen hammer's head, as the name implies, is at a 45° angle from the handle. They are commonly used by blacksmiths during the forging process to deliver blows for forging or to strike other forging tools.
Ball-peen hammers have two types of heads: hard-faced and soft-faced. The head of a hard-faced hammer is made of heat treated forged high-carbon steel or alloy steel; it is harder than the face of a claw hammer.
The soft-faced hammers have heads faced with brass, lead, tightly wound rawhide, or plastic. These hammers usually have replaceable heads or faces, because they will deform, wear out, or break over time. They are used to prevent damage to a struck surface, and are graded by the weight of the head and by hardness of the striking face.

INTRODUCTION: The present study aimed to evaluate the relationship between Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) and 1-year mortality in surgically treated the older adult hip fracture population and to compare the predictive values among patients with different CCI scores.
METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed 352 patients (114 men, 238 women) aged ≥60 years (range, 60100 years) who underwent surgical treatment for hip fractures in our clinic between February 2017 and February 2020. Necessary information such as age, sex, and diagnosed comorbidities were obtained through archive records. In addition, the date of deathif deceasedwas learned by telephonically contacting the patients relatives. Patients were divided into deceased and surviving groups, i.e., those who died within 1 year after surgery and those who survived, respectively, and were comparatively analyzed in terms of factors affecting mortality.
RESULTS: The postoperative 1-year mortality rate of the 352 patients included in this study was 36.4%. The deceased group (83.5 ± 7.8 years) had a significantly higher mean age than the surviving group (80.2 ± 9.7 years; p = 0.001). Men had significantly higher 1-year mortality rates than women (p = 0.044). Chronic kidney failure, congestive heart failure, and dementia had significant predictive effects on mortality (p = 0.002, 0.022, 0.037, respectively). Compared with other categories, CCI category 3 had a statistically significant odds ratio of 2.021 (95% CI: 1.014 4.025; p = 0.045).
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION: The correlative abilities of CCI appeared to affect mortality categorically and were also effective over a period of 1 year.

Frequently Asked Questions
A standard filling procedure typically takes about 30 minutes to an hour. The duration may vary depending on the extent of the decay and the number of fillings required.
We use local anaesthesia to minimise discomfort during the procedure. You might experience mild sensitivity or soreness after the anaesthesia wears off, which usually subsides within a few days.
Common signs that you may need a filling include toothache, sensitivity to hot and cold, and visible holes or dark spots on your teeth. Regular dental check-ups can help identify cavities early, often before they cause symptoms.
The longevity of dental fillings can depend on the material used and your oral hygiene practices. Composite fillings typically last 5-7 years, while amalgam fillings can last 10-15 years or longer with proper care.
We usually recommend waiting until the anaesthesia has worn off to avoid biting your cheek or tongue. Try to avoid hard, chewy, or sticky foods for a few days, especially if you're experiencing sensitivity.
Absolutely. Fillings that are worn, cracked, or have fallen out may need to be replaced. Your dentist will remove the old filling, clean the tooth, and place a new filling to restore the tooth.
