Venous thromboembolism, encompassing deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, has been increased in cancer patients, adversely affecting their prognosis. Low-molecular-weight heparins are recommended as efficacious and safe anticoagulation treatment in cancer patients. However, in clinical practice, oncologists prefer oral anticoagulation, especially if long-term or extended treatment is necessary. The novel oral anticoagulants have recently emerged as an alternative to the standard therapy…

Franny and Zooey Essay #4 Theological instruction is evident in both J.D. Salinger’s Franny and Zooey and Jorge Luis Borge’s “The Gospel According to Mark.” Theological instruction is commonly passed down through generations. “It also occurred to [Espinosa] that the generations of men, throughout recorded time, have always told and retold two stories – that of a lost ship which searches the Mediterranean seas for a dearly loved island, and that of a god who is crucified on Golgotha” (Borges 3)…

Nick and Franny’s DC Spy Tour Nick and Franny have been looking forward to their visit for some months. Franny has had a very hard year physically including her final surgery which has left her with limit vision in her left eye. This has affected her vision and balance. Nick is using this trip to help Franny relax from the year of surgeries and doctors. He has a developed a Spy Tour of DC to help during her recovery. They both share a love of David Baldacci novels and this visit is the…

In Betty Smith’s A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, Smith focuses on Francie Nolan, a young child suffering the hardships of poverty in the streets of Brooklyn. In the exposition, Francie lives with her mother, Katie, brother, Neeley, and father, Johnny, in a small tenement. Johnny earns money for the family waiting tables and singing at restaurants, but he is an alcoholic, which makes it difficult to provide a steady income. Katie is forced to work as a janitor to pay off rent, while the children…

'A Tree Grows In Brooklyn' starts out depicting the scene out of Francie's eyes looking at a tree growing outside her window. It becomes apparent to readers the family Francie belongs to a poverty-stricken. In the early chapters we find out Francie loves the library, reading, and learning to her it's like a “get away.” We also retain the knowledge that Francie's grandmother, Mary, never learned how to read or write “... but she had in her memory over a thousand stories and legends.” Mary sends…

on its surface and its angle can be manipulated depending on which effusion chamber shutter is opened. The time the substrate is exposed to an effusion chamber is calculated. Based on the area of the substrate, the pressure in the chamber and the molecular weight of the species, the shutter time is calculated to ensure the desired thickness of the film which will be adsorbed on to the substrate. For example, when using two semiconductors with similar lattice constants, such as InAs and GaAs, a…

controlled precipitation from solution of a compound on a suitable substrate. The technique offers many advantages over the more established vapour phase synthetic routes to semiconductor materials, such as chemical vapour deposition (CVD), molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) and spray pyrolysis. Factors such as control of film thickness and deposition rate by varying the solution pH, temperature and reagent concentration are allied with the ability of chemical bath deposition to coat large areas, in a…
