I live in the Mayfair section of Philadelphia. One of the problems in my neighborhood that causes me concern is the drug and alcohol abuse I see. There are needles left on the sidewalks and in the streets all over my neighborhood. Drunken arguments between intoxicated people in the early hours of the morning happen on a regular basis, and I often have people who are clearly on drugs knocking on my door insisting to pull the weeds from my patio for money. This always makes me sad because I have…
Historically, decorative drawings of heraldic dolphins and sea monsters were frequently used to illustrate maps, such as the Carta marina. This practice died away with the advent of modern cartography. Nevertheless, stories of sea monsters and eyewitness accounts which claim to have seen these beasts persist to this day. Such sightings are often cataloged and studied by folklorists and cryptozoologists. Sea serpent reported by Hans Egede, Bishop of Greenland, in 1734. Sea monster accounts are…
Anarchic Hand Syndrome very much exists and takes over one’s life. The major issue of this topic is that there is not a lot of researches to find a solution to help these victims find a comfortable norm. Socially, people who have AHS will have a hard time adjusting to their environment. The people around them should be understanding, and they will need to be knowledgeable about AHS. Even though individuals who have AHS are violent, if the people around them are understanding and competent then…
Diels-Alder Reaction Objective: The objective of this lab was to do a diels-alder reaction using anthracene, maleic anhydride, and xylene to create 9,10-dihydroanthracene, 10-, -succinic acid anhydride. Experimental: Anthracene (1.00g, 5.61x 10-3 mol), maleic anhydride (0.75g, 7.61x 10-3 mol), xylene (5mL, 4.71x 10-2 mol), and a stir rod were added into a round-bottomed flask. The round-bottom flask was then moved to the hood where the it was attached to a distillation column, placed on…
levels terribly closely - frequently oftentimes initially, then once every few months once that. Lithium is not habit-forming. It is important to eat a standard diet with normal salt and fluid intake. Lithium decreases Na reabsorption in the kidneys, which may lead to a deficiency of Na. A low sodium intake results in a relative increase in Li retention, which might lead to toxicity. You should stop taking Li if you have got excessive looseness of the bowels, vomiting, or sweating. All of these…
War done finish and all the katakata wey de for inside. No Civil War again. This time na Civil Peace." - Despite Johnathon being positive in his "Civil Peace" Post -war, there was still robbing, and violence was happening, nothing different from the Civil War. Author Thomas J. Lynn wrote in "Catastrophe, Aftermath, Amnesia: Chinua Achebe's…
As Europeans increased in numbers to settle America, their presence had a profound effect upon the native people living there. The exchange of knowledge on food items, weapons, religion, language and the introduction to disease are just a few examples of the impact Europeans had on Native Americans (Schultz, n.d.). Initially, the relationships between the two were friendly, the Natives traded food, fur pelts and knowledge to be self-sufficient in this new world for European manufactured items…
removed and therefore the extraction of sodium bicarbonate will be fairly weak during the extraction phase. Carboxylic acid has a –COOH functional group whereas Paracetamol has a –OH functional which makes both of the functioning groups to react with Na only when NaCHO^3 is added to paracetamol and Aspirin. After this reaction, there will appear the production of sodium salts which will shift from the insoluble layer of DCM to the Aqueous layer which is more soluble which results in a harder…
dream dreams.” Acts 2:17 AKJV. Imagine for a moment, as boy awakened early by his father: “Hey, buddy, you up for an adventure today?” Trusting his father, the son nervously with anticipation: says yeah dad, let’s go! Now imagine the son who says, Na. I’m tired, I just want to go back to bed, go without me! When God invites you into an adventure it’s a special moment, a divine appointment, an eternal moment with limited offers to do so. Ezekiel 11:18a says; "And I will give them one heart, and…
if the bird song is due to a genetic or a learning effect. To do so, we used the model to calculate the Na+, Ca2+ dependent K+ conductance, and compare the results between different sibling sets of birds, so that if the conductance of the Na+ and the Ca2+ dependent K+ conductance in siblings are near each other, then we would conclude that the result is genetic, while if the conductance of the Na+ and the Ca2+ dependent K+ conductance in unrelated birds are near each other, then we would…
