In December 2015, the member’s Medrol dosage was increased. Her HAQ score had increased to 1625 and her CRP was elevated to 5.49…
There was a study done where healthy people were given either 30 grams of casein or whey and measured the anabolic and catabolic effects for 7 hours. Whey resulted in an…
The first recorded Chinese dynasty for which there is both documentary and archaeological evidence. Shang china was centred in the North china Plain and extended as far north as modern Shandong and Hebi provinces and westward through present-day Henan province. The architects of the Shang period built houses of timber over rammed-earth floors, with walls of wattle and daub and roofs of thatch. Pottery objects were abundant, and Shang potters made fired-clay sectional molds for casting bronzes. Some of the pottery gives evidence of possibly having been shaped on a potter’s wheel.…
210–209 BCE thousands of Terracotta warriors were constructed in the Qin dynasty, to protect the emperor, Emperor Gin, in afterlife. The significant discovery is an ongoing work site. It is around 1.5 kilometers east of Emperor Qin Shi Huang 's royal tomb. The Terracotta warriors were found in 1974 east of Xi’an when farmers were digging a water well 1.5 km east of Qin Emperor’s tomb. When they were digging on of the men hit a warrior on the head, the news quickly spread archeologists swarmed the site to uncover more of the Terracotta warriors.…

As civilizations were beginning to expand and accumulate a substantial amount of wealth and an increase in population, there were higher demands for technological advances. Han China and Rome were both prime examples of the effects of expansion and population growth and the need for technology. It is evident that Han China’s technological inventions were highly centered around the working class individual. Which is quite contrary to the Roman view that the technological innovations should benefit the state in its entirety. Furthermore, technological advances in both civilizations were used as propaganda tools for political leaders and for the support of the government.…
Silicosis, a life threatening lung disease that can severely harm your ability to breathe. Starting in 1955, the Berkeley Pit became well known as a large truck-operated, open-air copper mine in Butte Montana. The unusually high copper prices resulted in the Anaconda Copper Mining Company opening many pit mines, including the Berkeley Pit. Buying up two communities and a lot of Butte’s previous population, the company was able to clear out a pit site. But after the discovery of very acidic sources and harsh effects, the Berkeley pit ceased mining in 1982; even today, the mine is still a hazard and causes problems for the surrounding community and environment.…
The Han Dynasty is well known for the imperial expansions of China. This allowed many trades and communications, such as technology, with other classical empires, more importantly the Roman Empire. During the Classical Period (600 B.C.E- 600 C.E) the Han Dynasty and Roman Empire possessed different attitudes towards technology. The Han, who were more optimistic about technology focused on the outlook, craftsmanship and advancement of technology, while the Romans concept clarified and organized technology models and types of government interventions which divided the social classes. For centuries, nations have been innovating ways for a better life.…
Meldonium, also known as mildronate, was first developed in Latvia in the early 2000s for a condition known as ischemia, where there is a reduction of blood flow to body tissues. This can be caused by blockages of blood vessels or by a fall in blood pressure, which results in the decrease of oxygen being able to reach cells. This causes muscles to get tired quickly, and they quickly run out of oxygen. Meldonium works by restraining the biosynthesis of an amino acid called carnitine, which transfers fatty acids across membranes for them to be metabolized.…
The war on drugs dates back to the stone ages where people would drink the left overs from stone age pots. Four thousand years ago opium was discovered by the Sumerians and they began to use this drug as a spiritual ritual. In 2737 BC, a Chinese emperor discovered marijuana and it became known for medicinal purposes only but the people used it for personal use to get the feeling it gave them. Then about eight hundred years ago Mexicans began to use marijuana for religious reasons and soon after they began to pay miners for their work with the leaves from coca plant . During the 1700’s to 1900’s King George started persuading leaders of America to plant hemp seeds in hopes of growing a profitable textile and rope business.…
Technology has been with us for a very long time. From Stone Age tools to the phones we have today. When technology started to advance, people from the Han Dynasty and the Roman Empire didn’t know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing. They weren’t familiar with Technology so they were skeptical about it at first. Some people grew to like technology and found it useful, while others found technology to be a total failure and not useful at all, then there were some people from the Han Dynasty and the Roman Empire that didn’t really have an opinion on technology and were uninterested.…
I found the invention of an Orii to be fascinating because it is an invention that seems to only be possible in movies. The Orii captivated me when I heard that it is able to function due to bone conduction. To be more specific, once someone places their finger on their ear, vibrations will be sent through their bones directly from the finger to the ear. Not only does Orii have the ability to work through bone conduction, but also Orii has Google assistant and Siri. This device has almost everything someone could possibly need in a day.…
Before the modern age, Pig Iron was generally poured straight out of the blast furnace, into a something called a 'ladle car'. This was so it could be transported to the steel mill in mostly liquid form. Pig Iron at this stage was known as hot metal. The hot metal would then be poured into a steelmaking 'bucket' to produce steel. Typically this would be an electric arc furnace, induction furnace or basic oxygen furnace.…
Discussion There were four goals for Project 11: Identification, Properties, and Synthesis of an Unknown Ionic Compound. The first goal was to identify the unknown compound, the second goal was to determine the reactivity of the compound, the third goal was to determine the quantitative solubility of the compound in water, and the fourth goal was to find the percent yield of a product from a reaction involving the unknown compound. Determining the identity of the unknown compound was achieved by performing a variety of tests for the physical properties of the substance. Some of these properties, such as melting point and chemical structure, could be discovered by making a few immediate observations of the substance. The unknown compound…
Magnets are one of the fundamental items in physics. This paper is meant to provide a general overview of magnets and their uses, as well as an in depth look into certain aspects of magnetism and how they relate to everyday life. Most images of a magnet come to mind as a tiny object used for hanging things on a refrigerator. But other applications are much more useful in our society in general.…
