Pages: 30-38
In modern life trauma, along with cardiovascular and oncological diseases, is one of the three causes leading to mortality. Our aim was to study the reparative regeneration process inyoung animals (control group);in animals with stimulated severe degree of dehydration (experimental group) and general conditions to correct morphological changes of the injured tibiae caused by severe degree of dehydration (applying "SOLCOSERYL" drug).The experiment was conducted on young male rats aged 4 months, which were divided into 2 groups: control and experimental.The experimental group was subdivided into two subgroups: the rats with severe degree of dehydration (I) and the ratswhich underwent the corrective treatment of structural changes caused by severe degree of dehydration applying "SOLCOSERYL"drug (II). After 3 days there were changes in the cellular composition in the animals from the subgroup I. On the 15th day, severe hematoma were determined in the immature areas of granulation tissue. We observed that the area of fibroreticulate tissue increased, but the area of coarse-fibered bone tissue reduced by 15.48 % (p≤0.0001) compared with the control group. After 15 days in the rats which underwent correction of structural change occured a positive tendency in histostructure: coarse-fibered bone tissue area decreasedby 16.10 % (p ≤ 0.0001), and the plate – up to 14.33 % (p ≤ 0.0001) compared with animals with severe degree of dehydration. After 24 days the structure of theregenerateschanged dramatically in the animals with severe degree of dehydration. For example, the area of coarse-fibered bone tissue increased up to 8.05 % (p ≤ 0.0001) and lamellar bone reduced by 22.82% (p≤0.0001) comparing with the control group. After 24 days firbroreticulate tissue was formed in the animals which underwent corrective treatment.There was more lamellar tissue in the animals which underwent corrective treatment comparing with the animals which had water imbalance,by 24.75 % (p ≤ 0.0001). Accoding to the histological investigation, the results demonstrated that severe dehydration did not change the order of reparative osteogenesis stages, but delayedthe restoration of bones. Thus, the corrector had positive effect on the reparative osteogenesis. Applied "SOLCOSERYL"drug, as a corrector,eliminated negative dehydration and accelerated restructuring and maturation of bone structures.
Key words: general dehydration, cellular composition, correction, "SOLCOSERYL", reparative regeneration.

Your employees and leaders may not be purposefully unethical. They simply may not know where the gray areas are. Ethics are an enigma – a puzzle – to most people… and what people don't understand, they often ignore. After Kevin's program, your audience will get the personal characteristics and circumstances that can lead to unethical behavior… so they're more able to tell when they're in the gray area or on the wrong side of the line.
Not only is Kevin's story impactful, dramatic, and just plain intriguing… Kevin is a natural storyteller. He'll weave his story for your audience that includes a corporate executive ignoring red flags, a federal criminal investigation, a prison sentence, and finally redemption. He'll share stories of other executives who have faced similar circumstances and events. All of which keeps audiences spellbound and on the edge of their seats… which means they're hanging on every word and remembering the lessons he shares.
Nobody wants the men in FBI jackets to visit them. But it happens more often than many realize. The DOJ and SEC have laid out specific criteria to mitigate the organization's exposure to fines, penalties and criminal charges that include demonstrating an effective organizational culture of ethics and ethics training. Most organizations ethics training programs are barely effective in this regard, just because they don't clearly outline the consequences of unethical behavior. Kevin's program emphasizes the need for all employees to take responsibility for their actions to prevent unethical decisions… and what's more, audiences are interested in the experiences he has to share.
People do business with people they trust. Studies have shown that highly ethical companies have great reputations with customers for trust and value... and these reputations directly translate to dollars on the bottom line. Kevin's program is designed to raise the ethical bar in your organization and keep the goodwill you've spent time, energy and money earning with your customers and associates.
Many employees are hesitant of reporting ethical or criminal issues for fear of retaliation, or out of ignorance that the acts are unethical or illegal. Early detection of ethical problems and criminal activity can be addressed immediately by management resulting in lower fines and penalties under DOJ and SEC guidelines. As a result of Kevin's program, your employees will be able to not only spot unethical behavior… but they'll understand the benefits of making sure that behavior is addressed immediately.
Employees often put themselves at risk with bad ethical decisions leading to dismissal with cause. And with every employee you dismiss, you have to spend more money recruiting, hiring and training their replacement. Not to mention what effect it has on the morale in the workplace! An ethical environment promotes employee honesty, pride, teamwork, and satisfaction. And as a bonus, highly ethical employers can recruit and retain better employees.
The cost to resolve ethical allegations in terms of legal costs, reputational damage and distractions to the core business are staggering. Kevin's ethics programs are a bargain even if they prevent just one instance of an ethical lapse.
There are 5,000 criminal laws and another 10,000 to 300,000 federal regulations that can get someone put in prison. Do you know the details of each one? Most white-collar offenders don't realize that going along with a bad situation can get them in a ton of trouble. If only they recognized their actions were unethical in the first place! With Kevin's presentations, your employees will discover precisely how devastating ignoring the consequences of their actions can be.

6 Habits That Will Help You Save Money
Much like exercising or eating healthy, saving money is much easier to do when it becomes part of your routine. To help you get in the right mindset for pursuing your financial goals, Tennessee State Bank is sharing six great habits for saving money.
1. Pay Yourself First
"Paying yourself first" means taking a designated amount from your paycheck and putting it in your savings account before you start paying for living expenses or discretionary items. This strategy helps you prioritize saving because if you start spending your paycheck and wait to see what is left over, you are less likely to save. If you receive a raise, you should adjust your savings goal accordingly.
2. Take Advantage of Bank Technology
Take advantage of modern bank technology to help you save. Rather than relying on your willpower to consistently take money out of your paycheck, you can set up automatic payroll deductions or automatic transfers from your checking account to your savings account. A team member at Tennessee State Bank would be more than happy to help you devise a way to make your saving automatic and painless.
3. Pay Your Bills On Time And in Full
If you don't pay your bills on time, you will start to accrue late fees. The best way to avoid paying more than you have to is to pay your bills on time and pay more than the minimum amount. To make sure that you don't miss deadlines, we recommend setting up automatic online payments or scheduling a time each month to write checks and mail them.
4. Determine "Needs" Versus "Wants"
A "need" is something you have to have, while a "want" is something you would like to have. Come up with a list of all your monthly expenses and decide which ones are "needs" and which ones are "wants." Then, see how you can cut back on your "wants." For instance, instead of going out for lunch each day, you could start bringing a lunch from home four days a week.
5. Consider Investments
When it comes to pursuing long-term financial goals, like home ownership or retirement, investments can be helpful. Stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and real estate are all investment options that you may want to look into.
6. Consult Tennessee State Bank
Our bankers would love to help you save more money. If you have questions about which of our products and services are best for your unique situation, don't hesitate to ask one of our friendly team members.

Spring 2017
This research considers the fast fashion industry which is a system where trendy clothes are created cheaply and frequently in large quantities. The research explores different issues with fast fashion such as increased pollution, waste, and mistreatment of workers. The goal is to recommend more sustainable and ethical practices in the manufacturing of garments. In addition, research is done on the relationship between fast fashion, globalization, and company and consumer awareness and responsibility. Interviews are conducted with five employees of various clothing companies: H&M, Forever 21, Abercrombie & Fitch, SiiZu, and Symbol. These interviews give insight into the practices of these companies and the steps they have or haven't taken in being more sustainable. The results of these interviews and research reveal that companies need more transparency in their production and new models for business to become more sustainable. Practices such as releasing sustainability reports, minimizing the turnover rate of clothing, adding more information to clothing tags, reducing environmentally damaging production methods, using sustainable packaging, analyzing the factories where the garments are produced, and recycling help lead companies to a more sustainable and ethical future.

❝Now is the time for transformational change in how we vet our workforce. We are committed to reducing the investigation inventory and fundamentally overhauling the process.❞
The Federal Government will advance this goal through four work streams:
- Trusted workforce. Instill a sense of shared responsibility by enabling a trusted workforce through consistent reporting requirements, awareness, and strengthened partnerships with other mission areas and industry;
- Modern clearance process. Transform the Government's approach at a fundamental level, revamping the policy framework and process to a more effective and efficient model that leverages the latest innovative technologies;
- Secure, modern, and mission-capable information technology. Rebuild the end-to-end information technology to accelerate the implementation of new policies and processes and to improve the cyber security posture of the enterprise; and
- Continuous performance improvement. Use outcome-based metrics, research and innovation, and an institutionalized Executive branch-wide model to continuously evaluate and improve policies and processes.
The Government's existing framework for establishing trust in the Federal civilian, military, and contracted workforce has struggled to onboard needed personnel efficiently and effectively, and to determine whether those workers can be consistently trusted to perform their duties and not to cause harm to people, property, systems, and information.
A Federal workforce that reliably protects Federal Government people, property, systems, and information through an enhanced risk management framework, which features: Improved early detection, enabled by an informed, aware, and responsible Federal workforce; Quality decisions, enabled by improved investigative and adjudicative capabilities; Optimized government-wide capabilities through enterprise approaches; and Strong partnership with Federal Insider Threat programs to identify, deter, and mitigate problems before they negatively impact the workforce or national security.

This was the second Wine Wednesday. There is no blog for Wine Wednesday One as it was only today we realised that our break-up-the-week-by drinking-nice-wine-and –eating-nice food lunches would be perfect for the Bancroft Wines' Blog.
Initially, conceived as an apology to me by Alex and Martin (don't ask what they did), Wine Wednesdays have blossomed at a phenomenal rate. Only week two and almost double the attendees.

2. Which types of toolkits do you have in your collection?
Answering this question you can determine the building-material of the cabinet and the total number of shelves you require.

If you have different types of tools and accessories, you can classify them in multiple categories and can organize each category on different shelves.

So I have 45 years worth in a cupboard. Hence, one would hope, some trouble might have been taken at renewal time. Please excuse the long case study below!

I had thought very hard about renewing this year given the quality of reviews (low) and the fact that I really don't buy many CDs anymore because my collection is very large. How did Gramophone handle this?

I received three letters encouraging me to renew (not emails, snail-mail) which took weeks to arrive in Australia. I got totally frustrated trying to renew on line through the Haymarket website and had to RING the UK from here to sort it out. After such dedication, a couple of days ago I received two more letters. One told me to renew because my subscription had expired; the other thanked me for renewing. I would have thought a couple of emails and a better on-line facility would have sorted things out rather faster. So much for their engagement with the digital age.

And also so much for their engagement with subscribers because not surprisingly I have received no acknowledgement of an email I sent suggesting that there might be better ways to handle the situation!

Maybe, given your readership numbers, the editor might be reading this, in which case I will take the liberty to say he would be better off responding directly to reader emails.Peter Younghttps://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-8060605.post-44251696961364391912012-03-07T11:38:40.580+00:002012-03-07T11:38:40.580+00:00This has me rather lost for words, not a condition...This has me rather lost for words, not a condition I suffer from often.

Image courtesy of Science/AAASIt isn't quite the same as Adrien Brody and Sarah Polley's splicing of human and animal DNA to create a human-chimera, but scientists in in Rockville, Maryland have announced that they have created the very first "synthetic" cell. In today's issue of Science, Gibson et al. working at the J. Craig Venter Institute provide information on the research that has led to the creation of a chromosome from scratch, and ultimately to a self-replicating, live cell. The nucleotides of a common bacterium's DNA were digitalized using a computer, then assembled into sequence segments. Many of the sequences even carry a watermark with the names of the scientists involved in the project!
The research seems to have come straight out of Hollywood (ironically, Brody's film Splice is about to be released in theaters). While they have not created a new life form, the discovery is being heralded by some scientists as the greatest scientific discovery in the history of humankind, putting the team on a pedestal with Galileo and Descartes because this work could potentially act as a stepping stone to the creation of novel life forms, bio-fuels and medicines, among other things.
But, with great power comes great responsibility, and individuals concerned about the ethics and consequences inherent in such a discovery have voiced their opinions and concerns in Science's rival, the journal Nature. The eight opinions shared serve as an excellent resource for anyone interested in exploring controversy in science or ethics (for more on these, see our Visionlearning's Scientific Ethics module).
Tell us what you think? In light of this research, should the federal government set more detailed guidelines on what can and cannot be done in the laboratory? Is this potentially the eugenics of the 21st century? Where do we draw the line in manipulating DNA?

In contrast to the gene-rich chromosome arms, the sequence of a typical plant centromere contains a large amount of repetitive DNA, most commonly large tracts of tandemly repeated sequences, or satellite DNA. However, the question of how this arrangement of sequences comes about is still a matter of active debate (reviewed in Malik and Henikoff, 2009). Centromere sequence evolves rapidly, possibly in response to competition among centromeres during female meiosis, where only one out of four meiotic products survives in the oocyte. Recombination, which may homogenize centromere repeats, acts in opposition to mutation and transposon insertion, which alter centromere repeats. Expansion of centromere repeat domains, selected for by competition to survive female meiosis, is counterbalanced by mechanisms to prevent distortion of segregation. In addition to having dynamic sequence and size, centromeres can move, either changing position gradually or forming in other regions of the chromosome (reviewed in Birchler et al., 2011), including regions without typical centromere sequence composition. Epigenetically defined, centromeres can also become inactive to prevent formation of dicentric chromosomes.
One of the hallmarks of the epigenetically defined functional centromere is the presence of a centromere-specific histone variant, CENH3. Gong et al. (3559–3574) use this marker to conduct a genome-wide survey of the sequence composition of the potato (Solanum tuberosum) centromere. The authors first identify potato CENH3 and validate its centromere localization, then use anti-CENH3 antibodies to enrich for CENH3-associated DNA fragments by chromatin immunoprecipitation. High-throughput sequencing of these fragments and alignment to the potato genome revealed that six of the 12 potato chromosomes have tandem repeat–based centromeres, but five centromeres do not contain a tandem repeat. One centromere contains both single/low-copy sequences and satellite repeats. The centromeres that do not contain a tandem repeat have single- or low-copy sequences and actively transcribed genes, as found by annotation and confirmed by RT-PCR. Among the centromeres with tandem repeats, the repeat sequence is present in the typical megabase-sized arrays. However, the repeat monomer size is substantially longer than the typical centromere satellite (979 bp to 5.4 kb in potato, compared with typical satellites of 135 to 195 bp in other plants). Also, the monomer sequence differed substantially between centromeres; for example, the St24 repeat only hybridizes to the potato chromosome 1 centromere (see figure, top panel). Moreover, examination of these repeats in other Solanum species reveals that the repeats are rapidly evolving; for example, in the closely related Solanum verrucosum, the St24 repeat is on a different chromosome (see figure, bottom panel), and St24 is not present in other tested Solanum species. Indeed, the authors find that five of the six centromere repeats emerged recently in potato, including three repeats that emerged in potato since it diverged from S. verrucosum.
This work supports a model in which tandem repeats invade an epigenetically defined centromere, possibly by integration of a large array that amplified de novo. As in potato, different centromeres start with different tandem repeats, but these become homogenized over time. An intriguing model, this leaves many questions for future research, such as why and how a single tandem repeat eventually occupies all centromeres in most species and what mechanism generates the multiple tandem arrays in the potato centromeres.

Solar Array
Solar Energy at Houghton
As of completion in March 2015, Houghton College's new solar system was able to generate more solar energy than any college in the state of New York. At 3.1 million kilowatt hours, the system generates enough power annually for nearly 300 homes. The system was built without any capital costs to Houghton College. Instead, the owners (WGL Energy) benefit from a 25-year purchase agreement with the college, which buys 100% of the energy generated.
The solar array enables Houghton College to put faith into action by practicing responsible stewardship of God's creation. Not only does the array provide clean, renewable energy to the college, but it also saves money and provides a valuable teaching tool.
Solar System Details
- Total Capacity: 2.6 megawatts DC
- Annual Production: ~ 3.1 million kilowatt hours (kWh)
- Size of Installation: 11.4 acres
- Number of panels: 8,569
- Average annual savings: $72,000
- Total savings to date (June 2019): $287,314

Site Administrator is like understand as Tableau Desktop User.In the first place it explains about the Miracle of Tableau site Administration.
In this case will discuss works of Site Administrators and Data Managers. It can be role of the client, who designs and Promotes Data Sources to Tableau online training. In Your Company this guy will do both works. For instance practical we will Divide these job Roles. By the way this Jobs roles will work as good work sources in your company.
The Miracle of Tableau site Administration:-
As a result table will offer a sequel of steps for designing a Site. You can finish the steps in any way that Creates for you. At the End of this Topic, you can get a sequel links for Many Resources for every one of the steps. When you are going to arrange site. Tableau Refer in obtaining with site Authentication points. Client site works and Authorities. Furthermore Design and file a plan for your permissions plan, teams, Projects and the Miracle of Tableau site Administration. Assigning a sample Project to trail with Many settings is better way to smooth these issues and tableau admin
Incidentally You modify site settings after your clients Operating with site and offer with an Intent of lowing post-production Modifications. Uploading Logo, This Model Starting step is to give same with Architecture while your logo is pointed. If your company uses one sign-on, you can arrange your site to implement SAML and Google Authentication Process. Or you can go for Default tableau ID authentication. Especially By this every user can sign in by implementing an Email Address and password is Genuine to the Miracle of Tableau site Administration.
Similarly,In authentication method, you can get whether to allow users to sign in directly from Tableau clients after signing in one Time. This is started by Default. For the most part Designing Projects will helps you to handle Users to access workbooks and Data Sources that are promoted to your site. You can start Default teams and permissions for every of Default and Lock Project. In the meantime Implement it as a template for upcoming projects. Projects Serve as Staging Environments. Starting the permission structure, permissions in tableau work with site roles to Design user Access to content its site and Tableau online site administrator.
Adding Users :-
Subsequently the Miracle of Tableau site Administration ,Adding users can access learn tableau online will sign in. Getting users you want to start to sign in site. If you start SAML or Google authentication. Know that what type of users you needed to sign in on Credentials and use tableau Credentials. As a rule Get multiple users on a time Base and on their Authentication Type.

Regularly this will Termed as Data sources , Tableau users can connect. As the site Administrator you can handle Data Source Permissions. Singularly Data manager can handle connection Information and they modify Time tables for cloud Data Sources.
Data Freshness:-
Tableau online don't support connections to any type of cube Based Data Sources. it Do not support Published Data Connections that Implement Kerberos authentication. You promote output of SAP BW Data Sources to Re-promote them. Tableau Bridge do not Communicate with Data Sources with OAuth Authentication.
Cloud Data :-
Finally By Preferring Security measurements, cloud Data suppliers need you to give a Sequence list of Authorized IP address from other External Apps request access of your Data. Request from IP Address clearly approved and rejected. Make sure that Consequently live Connections you can promote to tableau online.As a result It will like non disturbed and add tableau online to Data provider.Especially all the above concepts will explain the Miracle of Tableau site Administration.
Software developers
Database Administrators
Team leaders
System Admins
Similarly, There is nothing much prerequisites to pursue the course. It's good to have a basic knowledge of Data science algorithms and basic knowledge of programming languages like python for the purpose of automation. But not mandatory. Finally, Trainers of OnlineITGuru will teach you all the basics required for Tableau training.

Wow!!! I'm so impressed at that big roll of paper!!!! I'll be checking that out! I try to buy wrapping paper at estate sales -- hope that doesn't sound weird. ;) but I love the vintage paper that is often for sale. Or, if I'm organized enough after Christmas sales at target :)ReplyDelete
I would never have thought to look for wrapping supplies at Sams! That is a great deal on ribbon - I can never have enough when I'm wrapping gifts. I'm with your mom on Hobby Lobby's paper. It's my favorite! I always stock up the day after Christmas at Hob Lob and Target - grabbing paper, ribbon, tissue and gift tags.ReplyDelete
Whitney @ Come Home For Comfort
I wish we had a Sams closer. I love Sams but had never thought of getting wrapping paper there. My gifts do not look pretty. They use to but now I can't keep bows on the presents. My friend Brooke has the prettiest gifts and I'm always so jealous. I'm lucky if I have a sticky bow on my gifts.ReplyDelete
My goal for next year is to get a huge roll of brown paper and go crazy with yarn, sharpies, etc. This year I caved and just bought some rolls. In the past I hit up after Christmas sales to get some super cheap paper, too.ReplyDelete
Sams is my favorite for wrapping supplies!! You can't beat their prices on wired ribbon and tissue paper!ReplyDelete
I guess I'll be looking at those things during this weeks trip to Sams. Thanks for the tips!ReplyDelete
I LOVE hearing from you!! Thanks for taking the time to leave sweet comments; I enjoy reading every one of them.
