Pain and discomfort should not be a part of the job description for dental hygienists. However, according to Sanders and Turcotte (1997), there is a “high incidence of cumulative trauma disorders (CTD) among dental hygienists and an alarming number of dental professionals who report work with pain every day” (p.55). Practicing dental hygiene entails spending most of our day viewing small, narrow spaces inside the oral cavity. Long-term strain to our eyes, muscles, joints, nerves and tendons…

Based on the theory of free volume, penetrant molecules can diffuse from one place to another if there is a blank space or a free volume sufficient (Mulder, 1991). The movement of heat will produce a magnification of free volume in the membrane. Therefore, the rate of diffusion of each molecule penetrant increased at high temperatures and produce high permeation flux values anyway (Bakhsi et al., 2006). Figure 4.9. The effect of temperature on selectivity for various of membrane composition…

Introduction The Gram stain is a valuable tool to microbiologists in identifying the cell well composition of prokaryotic species. The underlying process revolves around a series of chemical dyes, and their propensity to bind to peptidoglycan polymers in the cell wall. The results allow scientists to infer properties about the outer coating of an organism and is often the first step in identifying an unknown species. For the purpose of our experiment, the results of the Gram stain will be as…

Literature Review The earliest form of what would eventually become Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy was developed in 1955 by Dr. Albert Ellis, a prominent American psychologist. This early stage of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy was called rational emotive behavior therapy. Using rational emotive behavior therapy, Ellis believed that people’s thoughts and beliefs had a great effect on their emotions, and as a result, the way the behaved. Ellis believed that how one view themselves and how they…

1. What are Kepler’s 3 Laws. Explain each law in detail and why it is important in astronomy. (3 pts) Kepler’s Three Laws that everything orbits the sun. The first law is that everything orbits the sun, all the planets orbit in the ecliptic of the sun which clear up a lot of the problems with the tycho model in retrograde motion. Ellipses. The second law is equal areas in equal times. Equal Areas. And the third law is the mathematical relationship equating distance from the sun, average…

routines; similar to advent calendar icons, but without the cheer. It travels like a shadow passenger in a car, noticing every stranger in a vehicle, making their obtrusive expressions without knowing that someone is watching, more misshapen with the magnification distortion. It passes a woman gazing out towards the urban landscape, focusing on the fire escape stairs, rusted, and forgotten. Her eyes painfully close from the sharp beginnings of an inflamed thought. A red neon light sign…

This article- Does the Internet Make You Smarter? by Clay Shirky, the author of the book- ‘Cognitive Surplus: Creativity and Generosity in a Connected Age’. It talks about the phenomenon of 1.8 billion Internet users having a free ride in terms of the consumption as well as creation of media in various forms, which include paperback books to YouTube videos. However, the author tends to question the efficacy of freedom without counterbalance checks in terms of professional standards. This could…

What is a red dot? A red dot sight is a non-magnification optic. There are all types for all sorts of firearms. The more common ones are rifle and pistol red dots. We’ll be learning the proper way to install and sight in a rifle red dot. Rifle red dots are mainly used for defense, more specifically home defense. Inside the range of fifty yards or less. The purpose of a non-magnified optic such as a red dot, is for fast target acquisition. Being able to focus on your target and…

For years the Catholic Church has viewed the universe as a place of stars and heavenly perfection. Geocentricity has been acknowledged, as the universe revolves around the Earth. Our opinions of a place beyond our world has been influenced by the theories of ancient writers such as Ptolemy and Aristotle, and our views shan’t be altered! This Aristotelian view of the universe has been widely accepted by both scientists and theologians, though, Galileo Galilei’s observations in Siderius Nuncius,…

picture. This makes for a hemispherical or panoramic image. Macro: This type of lens is made to be used for close-up photography where the small subject you are taking a picture of will appear to be larger than life. They come primarily with 1:1 magnification levels. Wide-angle: This type of lens can capture images at a wide angle, which helps to capture more of a scene within a single photo. Telephoto: This type of lens comes with a longer than normal focal length, which helps to create images…
