Understanding the Literature
Types of Scientific Articles
News Articles
- Provide a brief overview of scientific findings for a general audience
- Useful when you are searching for the latest scientific research
Meeting Abstracts, Papers, and Proceedings
- Provide brief descriptions of original research presented at conferences
- Useful when you are looking for recent research in the scientific literature
Research Articles
- Present new and original scientific findings
- Explain research methodology and provide data
- Useful when you need primary sources (primary articles will be discussed in detail later)
Review Articles
- Provide an overview of a field or subject
- Synthesize previous research
- Useful when you need background information and additional references
Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Literature
Primary literature contains the original research results reported by scientists. It includes conference proceedings, dissertations, journal articles, and patents. Before research results are published in a scientific journal, they must pass a rigorous review process by other scientists called peer review.
After a research article is published, the information contained in the article may be summarized and analyzed in books and review articles by other authors. These types of sources are considered the secondary literature of the sciences because, rather than presenting new research, they provide a compilation or evaluation of previously published research.
Tertiary literature is further removed from the original research than secondary literature. It attempts to give an overview of a topic. Information in tertiary materials comes from the secondary and primary literature and is generally widely accepted. Encyclopedias, handbooks, and textbooks are some examples of tertiary literature.
Peer Reviewed vs. Popular/News Articles
Peer Reviewed Articles
Popular/News sArticles
Are written by scholars and researchers (look for a university or laboratory affiliation in the article)
Are written by journalists or writers who may or may not have any expertise in the article's topic
Include an abstract and a bibliography or a cited list of references
Rarely have an abstract or a bibliography
Have a specialized format (this will be discussed later under "Reading & Citing")
Do not follow a specialized format
Use discipline-specific language
Use language understandable by the general public
Undergo a rigorous peer review
Undergo a limited editorial review

In singular homology one of the first calculations you can make is $H_0(X)=H_0(pt)$ for path-connected $X$. This seems to be a property which does not follow from the axioms for a generalized homology theory. This raises the following question:
Assume $H_* : Top^2 \to Ab^\mathbb{N}$ is a homology theory. Thus we impose homotopy invariance, excision, the long exact sequence, the dimension axiom and if you wish also the disjoint union axiom. Is then $H_0(X)=H_0(pt)$ for every path-connected space $X$?
I believe that there is a counterexample. Of course this can't be homotopy equivalent to a CW-complex. And probably this is the reason why this question is not reasonable at all. It's just my curiosity.

Just wanted to propose a serious feature to the Stack Exchange sites.
The idea (concept) is a question-based following similar to Tweets.
Imagine you're an average user posting question after question (a bit like myself). For those who just look at the question, it might be a tad confusing (which happens all the time) as to what exactly you mean.
Of course, the normal system stipulates that if the question is ambiguous, then people will vote you down etc. But the hardcore enthusiasts, who have the time and are capable of looking at the OP's previous question(s), may have a better insight into what you are referring to.
Under normal circumstances, you're supposed to clearly ask your question as best as possible (sometimes, this isn't possible though).
So my new system could save the day! A "following" tab, under your question title, where you can choose for it to be:
- either a "singular" question, i.e.: "I need help with this one thing"
- "Follow me", which means someone like me could have a "category of questions", all related in a sequence.
That way, the hardcore guys could click on the follow tab and help you along the way, and at the same time separate those questions from the normal "singular" unanswered section of the site. You could even have a "follow" category.
Have a look:
Now, imagine that under your question, when folks look at it, they will see your previous questions, and you won't get so many harsh replies stating the obvious (or un-obvious) as your previous history for the question line will be stated in the question itself.

the massey is a solitary critter. he can be found in damp and moldy basements, under lumber piles, and occaisionally in the restrooms of some mexican restaurants. he has been known to consume veggie pizzas, dog food, and, in rare sightings, kittens. the massey is believed to be a distant cousin of both the sloth and the mexican jumping bean. if you see the massey, do not approach it, for the massey is best viewed from afar. the massey also randomly explodes into fits of rage therefore it is imperative for massey-watchers to keep their distance. the massey is often confused with surly elderly, bed-ridden males of the homo sapien species.
Did you see the massey feasting on those kittens?
Yeah, he sneaks up on them easily because he camoflagues himself as a pile of sweatpants and velcro shoes.

Ok Kiddies, for this excercise, let's use "dan" as an example, shall we? As previously stated, not in so many words, "dan" is a basement dwelling, mutated, socially unacceptable troll. "dan" feeds on the slime that lines the sewer system. "dan" enjoys the company of dead people & shaven cats. "dan" doesn't like the hair, as it gets caught between the only 2 teeth he has. Massey's usually live in friend's basements, as they are so physically unappealing & foul smelling, they don't have the capability to keep a job.
"dan the massey" smells like some homeless dirty person's asshole on a hot summer day, after they had diarrhea.

WHY is abortion "wrong"?
I've never been able to understand why a Republican contributor is a 'fat cat' and a Democratic contributor of the same amount of money is a 'public-spirited philanthropist'.
My concern about abortion has nothing to do with religion. I believe life begins at implantation. Having an abortion ends a life. The end.

I am PC, but I have no problem putting myself in the other side's shoes and "getting" why they think it's wrong. Is it really that hard to see the other side of it?

A pregnancy is not a disease. It does not need to be "cured". Therefore the idea of God giving us modern medicine cannot be applied, IMO.
I am still prochoice, but this is one of the wierder debates I've seen posed here.
"As a country, we are in bigly trouble."~SD&H
Where things get complicated is in the dependence factor. A fetus cannot exist without the parent prior to viability. Since we don't require that people act to save other people at the sacrifice of their own body (no forced organ donations), forcing a woman to host a fetus violates her right to bodily autonomy. On the other hand, not doing something- not donating a kidney, say- is different from actively doing something- removing the fetus knowing that will kill it.
What it comes down to for me, though, is that everyone has different beliefs about what constitutes an individual being, and until there is general consensus backed up by medical evidence we must leave the choice up to the individuals.
I do think my veganism gives me some insight here, because my feelings about non-human animals are not dissimilar to how a PLer feels about fetuses. But I don't expect the majority to adhere to my minority and arguably extreme opinion on the topic.

Vegan Challah
Oh, my. Has it really been a month since my last post? Yikes! Let me also apologize for my negligence responding to your questions in the comment section of the blog. If you have an outstanding question on an old post, just fire me an email (see the sidebar on the right).
Today's post is this delicious vegan challah. I've never had non-vegan challah, so I am blissfully unaware if this measures up to its egg-filled counterpart. I do know, though, that this is a remarkably tender and delicious (and beautiful) loaf. According to my Jewish friend, the recipient of one of the loaves, "you'd never know there were no eggs in this!" Basically, the eggs in challah work to enrich the dough. The yeast and flour provide rise and structure, so replacing the eggs is not a big deal. I went with Tofutti cream cheese, because that is what I had on hand, but you could also use soy yogurt or whizzed silken tofu. As per usual, this is a veganized Peter Reinhart recipe. Just a word of warning: this makes 2 substantial loaves. Cut in half if you don't have the fridge space for a huge bowl of dough (or if you don't want that much challah). You don't have to refrigerate it, of course, but it makes for a much tastier dough and makes the dough easier to work with.
- 18 oz (510g/2.25 cups) lukewarm water
- 1.5 tbsp instant yeast
- 2 tbsp ground flax seed
- 2 oz (56.5g/1/4 cup) warm water
- 1/8 tsp turmeric
- 4 oz (113g/1/2 cup) vegan cream cheese, or soy yogurt, or whizzed silken tofu
- 2.5 oz (71g/5 tbsp) oil
- 3 oz (85g/6 tbsp) sugar
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 34 oz (964g/7.5 cups) white bread flour
- 2.5 tsp salt
- plain soy milk, for brushing
- poppy and sesame seeds, for garnish
1. Pour water into a mixing bowl, then sprinkle yeast over top. Whisk to dissolve.
2. Whisk the flax seed, the 1/2 cup of water, and turmeric in a medium separate bowl. Let sit for a few mins to thicken, then whisk again. Add cream cheese (or whatever you are using) and whisk until smooth. Then add oil and whisk until smooth.
3. Add flax mixture to the yeast/water mixture. Add sugar, extract, flour, and salt then bring together into a rough dough. Let sit for 5 mins to let the flour absorb the liquid.
4. Mix with a dough hook on med-lo speed for 4 minutes, or with by hand with a large, wet, spoon. Transfer to a floured surface and knead for 1 to 2 mins, until you get a very soft and tacky (but not sticky) dough. Add flour sparingly as needed. Place dough into a very large, oiled bowl, cover, and refrigerate overnight. The dough will keep for up to 4 days in the fridge and will rise like crazy.
5. On baking day, remove the dough from the fridge and immediately divide into 10 equal pieces on a lightly floured surface (i.e. 5 pieces for each loaf). Roll each piece into a 14 inch rope with tapered ends. Braid 5 ropes into a loaf, as per this video. Repeat with remaining 5 ropes.
6. Place loaves on a baking tray (or two smaller trays if they can both fit on one shelf in your oven) lined with parchment. Brush loaves with soy milk (I actually mist them with a spray bottle filled with soy milk). Let sit for 2 mins, then brush again. Top with seeds. Let sit, uncovered, for 1 hour (or until risen about 1.5 times in size).
7. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350 degrees. When loaves have risen, bake on the middle shelf for 20 mins. Rotate the pan, then bake for another 15-20 mins (or until loaves are golden brown and register at least 190 degrees in the middle.
8. Cool on a wire rack for 45 mins before slicing. Enjoy!

Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. I used to eat challah on a fairly regular basis (I worked in a bakery) and it was delicious. I haven't had it since going vegan and have been too intimidated to approach making it myself. Thanks again!

Can you try a recipe like this with whole wheat flour? I am kosher AND vegan and I make a challah every week for shabbat. I prefer to use only whole wheat. What I've been doing is using a regular recipe and subbing ground flax for the eggs, but I am interested in trying something new!

Tried this recipe and OMG, it takes so close to real challah! The texture is absolutely perfect. It's so easy to make, I love that you refrigerate the dough then you can braid and bake when you need it!
Just wondered, is there such a thing as a bread thermometer? My candy thermometer worked but left a huge hole!

I made this today for Rosh Hashanah and it was AMAZING!! I wisked the Trader Joe's vegan cream cheese, water, flax, vanilla, yeast, and oil together then put it in the bread maker with the flour and walked away. When the dough cycle was over I shaped it and let it rise for half an hour. From there I baked it for 36 minutes and it was PERFECT! This was my first vegan challah and I plan on making this regularly. Thank you so much!!

Quick post to say THANK YOU and that these are totally Jewish vegan approved! Made these yesterday and all the non-vegans at my Rosh Hashanah dinner loved them. Absolutely perfect challah. Love! Thank you!!

Just curious about whether it is iPHONE, IPHONE, or just never written in all capital letters. Is there a style guide or something on this issue?
As initially mentioned by Neil, the Apple Publications Style Guide is the place to look.
From page 34:
That is, the i in words like iPod and iTunes (and iMac, iPhone, iPad, etc.) are never capitalized.
I don't believe that, given a choice, Apple ever uses all caps, although the only specific rule I've found is on page 33:
There is an Apple Publications Style Guide, and it says to not use all caps for emphasis. (Apple Style Guide, PDF)
I can't recall ever seeing all-capital letters in an Apple publication. In the design world, all-capital letters are generally considered hard to read and, in most fonts, ugly, so it's my guess that Apple would avoid the use of all-caps.
The only official name is "iPhone". If you are putting it in capitals, it is just a matter of choice whether the initial

Professor Robert Young, this year's American Rock Salt lecturer.
GENESEO, N.Y. - Geology Professor Robert Young from Western Carolina University will address "Climate Change and Superstorm Sandy: Science and Policy" at SUNY Geneseo's 10th annual American Rock Salt Lecture on Geology Feb. 21st at 7:30 p.m. in Newton Hall Room 202. The event is free and open to the public.
"This couldn't be a more timely topic since a large part of the East Coast is still recovering from the devastating aftermath of Superstorm Sandy, and we look forward to Professor Young's insights," said Scott Giorgis, chair of the Department of Geological Sciences. "I am excited for this lecture because it will not only address the science of coastal hazards and climate change, but also look at the policy implications of the science. These are exactly the issues that we need to consider as New Yorkers as we begin spending billions of dollars on reconstruction efforts."
Young serves as director of the Program for the Study of Developed Shorelines (PSDS), a joint venture between Duke University and Western Carolina University. PSDS conducts research on coastal processes and translates research into policy recommendations and public outreach.
He also oversees more than $3.5 million in grant-funded research projects related to coastal science and management, including an NSF-funded project examining the coastal impacts of the Elwha River dam removal project in the state of Washington and the development of a national, geo-referenced storm surge database in partnership with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
Young received his bachelor's degree in geology from the College of William & Mary, a master's degree in quaternary studies from the University of Maine, and a doctorate in geology from Duke University, where he was a James B. Duke Distinguished Doctoral Fellow.
The annual American Rock Salt Lecture on Geology is part of a partnership formed in 2003 between American Rock Salt Co. LLC and Geneseo's Department of Geological Sciences. The partnership remains very active with support from the company for undergraduate research, an undergraduate internship, and the annual lecture.

I'm looking into a secret sharing scheme that has a secret permutation $\theta$ which has the cycle structure (n/2)+(n/2) (i.e. two (n/2)-cycles).
The permutation $\theta$ is decomposed into two permutations $\alpha$ and $\beta$, where $\alpha$ is generated uniformly at random. So with knowledge of both $\alpha$ and $\beta$, we can find $\theta$, while with knowledge of $\alpha$ xor $\beta$, we cannot find $\theta$ (although, we could guess).
At this point, I want to make public $\beta\alpha(L)$ (L is actually a Latin square, but this is not too relevant for the question I want to ask). It is possible that an attacker could find $\beta\alpha$ from $\beta\alpha(L)$. However, I worry that knowledge of $\beta\alpha$ might give information about $\theta$.
If I know $\theta=\alpha\beta$, and I'm given the permutation $\beta\alpha$, what can I say about $\theta$? (without a priori knowledge of $\alpha$, $\beta$ or $\theta$)


text: Hey everyone! I'm back with another tutorial that I think you all will like! Today I'm going to take you through "How to Draw Cartoon Dogs". I am not that confident in drawing bodies so i only drew the head, and the head only has one facial expression but I'm sure you will be able to change that if you want something different. Also I apologize for it's longness and will try to shorten my tutorials in the future. I tried to also make this tutorial easy for everyone but still look good so tell me how i went! Enjoy!

The best thing about FAU is the diversity of the student body. This school is the melting pot of East and every student brings their very own
The involvement of the student population with FAU Athletics and all the teams for the university. The language barrier in the Mathematics and Engineering Departments is also bothersome since those...

No matter how much I practised this etude, i just can't play it in the right speed. I play the piano for 12 years approx. and it just didn't work for me with this etude. Does someone have an idea for me?
The first step is obviously to memorize the piece. Play it absurdly slow (semiquaver = 20; no, I'm not joking). Practice by writing down the piece, check where your memory is weak and train more those parts. When you are able to write it down completely, without looking at the score, you've done half the job.
Second step is being able to master all the technical difficulties in the piece (it's an etude, after all). What I mean is something like this: practice the first four semiquavers in the first bar with your right hand, at least 100 times. When you are able to play those four notes at right speed, then do the same with the other four, and so on. You may want to hold a book with your free hand and read it, like Liszt did, since this is the most time-consuming step. Like mjibson said, don't be scared if you have to put an absurd amount of time for a single bar. It's normal. The only thing you have to keep an eye on is your arm: if it starts getting tired, stop immediately: it means you're doing something wrong. Change position, try using less muscles to do the work.
Third step is putting all together.
The biggest challenge is the psychological one. Watching videos on youtube of 11 years old children playing this etude like a Bach's minuet may demoralize you. Seeing that after 10 hours of practice you only learnt that little bar may demoralize you. But the truth is that no one has learnt a Chopin's etude without putting in it days and herculean effort.
Frances Clark (a famous piano teacher) was asked a question about easy Chopin etudes. She replied (as documented in Questions and Answers) that his etudes only come in "hard, harder, and hardest". A graduate student in my piano program played a Chopin etude. He reported practicing 100 hours for a one minute performance. The Chopin etudes are highly difficult. The solution may be to: practice it for a few hundred hours in a disciplined manner (with metronome, slowly, high number of repetitions of short sections until perfect, etc.), or try it again in a few years once you are more skilled.
After doing all that is written above, go to the Barton Tutorial for Op. 10 #4 and watch carefully. I guarantee you a 100% improvement after a few hours of practice. Start with the hardest section first, as short a section as possible without breaking up the passage too much, hands alone is important, with metronome is important; 10 times at one speed with one hand, some hand 10 times next setting, same hand 10 times at next setting (30 times done). Change hands and repeat the process. Tip the metronome over and play it hands together and move on to the next hardest (short if possible) passage.

Wikipedia surprisingly does not contain a good list. Under philosophy of mathematics it is rather vacant too. A graduate level list is here, but I was curious more about the most influential papers. Manually one could search here. But all in all, the database out there is rather barren.
Edit: For some reason when I was typing the title it did not suggest me this math.SE question. (will delete if duplicate).

I am a big fan of "Prison Break" and want Michael Scofield in action again. So please can anybody tell me, will I be able to see the gang again in action or not? Are there any plans for Season 5?
Aside from all the sources that may already corroborate that Prison Break has reached its ending in totality, e.g., IMDB/Wikipedia, it seems exceedingly unlikely that we would see Michael Scofield in action again, as the final episode of Prison break tells us:
We don't see him die, but we do see Sara and his child at his gravestone, assuredly marking his demise. When we also consider all the other loose ends tied up (other prisoners dying, Lincoln's absolution, deconstruction of 'The Company'), it lends for little further possible plot to continue on.
Update: Prison break going to be revived
No. The the show is over and there are no plans for a season 5.
"Prison Break", a television series on the Fox Network, ended its run in 2009, after 4 seasons. It concerned the breakout of a group of felons from a prison in Chicago, and the ensuing run to evade capture by the FBI and international agents. It starred: Wentworth Miller, who has gone on to other roles, though, decidedly few; Dominic Purcell who played his incarcerated brother, who has moved into motion pictures in a number of action thrillers, and guest television spots; Robert Knepper, who had a number of television projects since Prison Break, also a number of films; William Fichtner, who played the FBI agent in pursuit, has a currently-active television series "Crossing Lines", and a number of film roles since. Long story short, I don't think the show "Prison Break" is on anyone's radar for a comeback.
UPDATE: Today, 2015/01/18, it was revealed that:
Submitting this as a NEW answer, since it clearly contradicts the first, based on information just received - after an additional 2 years.
According to information released August 6, 2015, Prison Break will be back for a season of 10 further episodes.

In 50 Fathoms Kraken and a few other races have a hindrance of Dehydration, that means they must immerse themselfs in water for at at least hour, in every 24 hours, can the dehdyration be prevented using the Enviromental Protection spell?

The wording of the Environmental Protection power states that it:
As Kraken experience environments out of water as harmful, I would rule that the power protects them in the same way as it would a human who was underwater.
The one caveat to this is that the power would need to be constantly active during the day. If you wanted to get fiddly, you could rule that if it were active half the day, the Kraken would only need half an hour in water and so on, but this could very quickly get difficult to track.

Have any experiments been carried out involving sprouting and growing plants in a zero gravity environment? If so, what was the outcome? How did the plants sprout out of the soil without gravity? Did they grow outward or toward light sources?
There have been several experiments in growing plants in microgravity (strictly speaking, we do not achieve "zero-g" since astronauts remain in orbit about the Earth).
Changes in plant growth due to the influence of a gravity field is sometimes called gravimorphogenesis. More specifically, gravitropism is a differential growth response of plant organs to gravity. For example, roots grow downwards (positive gravitropism) and shoots grow upwards (negative gravitropism) on Earth.
Studies (e.g. 1) suggest that in micro-g, there is no preferred direction; roots may grow "up" and shoots "down".
It is thought that this growth response is due to the relative distribution of auxin in the plant. On Earth, auxin will preferentially move down into the root-tips due to the location of amyloplasts in the root-cap cells. In micro-g, amyloplasts do not settle at the "bottom" of the plant, therefore there is a more generalized distribution of auxin, and therefore there will be no preferred growth direction.
In addition, changes in plant gene expression as a response to micro-g environments are also being investigated (2) and suggest that auxin transport inhibitors may block the activation of the auxin responsive promoters in Nicotiana spp. (tabacco).

Liberty Elementary School out of Canton claimed top shooting honors at the sixth and final Georgia National Archery in the Schools Program regional tournament.
Liberty Elementary's team shot a 2,836 to win the overall team title, beating out three other school archery teams to qualify for the 7th annual Georgia-NASP State Tournament March 13 at the Georgia National Fairgrounds in Perry.
Wilbanks Middle School in Demorest won the middle school division with a team score of 2,712. Both the Liberty Elementary and Wilbanks Middle teams receive automatic bids to the state tournament for winning regional division titles.
Wilbanks Middle's Adam Harrup led the field with a score of 263 (out of 300) to win the overall highest scoring male archer. Wauka Mountain Elementary's Maggie Rogers arrowed a 251 to capture the overall highest scoring female title.
Other top individual shooters included Wauka Mountain Elementary's Cole Ellis (259, top elementary school male) and Wilbanks Middle School's Joanna Knox (241, top middle school female).
More than 75students in elementary and middle school competed at Georgia NASP Regional No. 6 at Wilbanks Middle School. Schools that did not win an automatic berth to state at the regional tournament can still qualify as a high-scoring wildcard team after the final regional tournament is completed. Wildcard standings. Individual male and female shooters finishing in the top five in 4th, 5th, 6th grades and the middle and high school divisions all qualify for state.
Tournament results are posted online at www.nasptournaments.com.
The National Archery in the Schools Program is an in-school archery curriculum that meets all education department standards. Only schools that are certified in NASP through the Georgia Department of Natural Resources are qualified to compete in the Georgia Tournament. Schools in more than 100 counties in Georgia are NASP certified.
The program promotes instruction in international-style target archery to improve educational performance and participation in shooting sports. Research has shown that the program, administered through a minimum two-week course during the school year, improves class attendance and behavior. NASP universal fit bows make it possible for students of all sizes and genders to succeed in archery while raising self-esteem levels and improving hand-eye coordination during physical activity.
NASP is taught in 47 states as well as 10 countries. To date, more than 10 million students have gone through the program.

Moons of the Solar Systemby Mark Hughes
There are more than 140 known moons throughout our solar system. Most are barren rock, while some have atmospheres, volcanoes, and maybe even oceans of liquid water or methane. Follow this slideshow to learn more about the moons of our solar system.
1 of 10
The moon around Earth is known simply as "the Moon," but it is also named Luna, after the Roman moon goddess. Luna is one of the largest moons in the solar system; it does not have an atmosphere and its surface is rocky. The people of Earth are used to Luna shining down on them. Luna does not create its own light however; it simply reflects the light from the Sun. Notice the red spot in the upper right of the picture, that's Mars in the distance.
Fun Fact: If you lived on the Moon, you would see the Earth go through phases, much like Earthlings see the Moon do.

Recording as Her Space Holiday since 1996, Marc Bianchi creates sugarcoated dreamscapes floating alongside bitter-sweet narratives of life. He's been featured in many of the industry's top music magazines including Spin, Mojo, and DJ, has reached #2 on the respected CMJ charts (with The Young Machines) and has toured with some of the world's top indie acts including Bob Mould, Bright Eyes, Arab Strap, and The Faint.
Always challenging himself, Bianchi's sound has morphed with every release, proving he is equally comfortable with intricate sampling and drum programming as he is building a track around acoustic guitar, live instruments, and percussion. From his early output with NYC's TigerStyle, his releases for London's Wichita, and his work with Mush, Marc Bianchi's constant evolution as a songwriter and arranger continues to enchant.
Popfrenzy is delighted Her Space Holiday has finally find a home in Australia and New Zealand. His new album the wonderfully titled, XOXO, Panda And The New Kid Revival is expected to hit stores in early November. Before then watch out for the ITunes only Sleepy Tigers EP (available on October 11).

I've heard only "envaramiento", so people say in Spanish
Estoy envarado por haber nadado ayer.
Wikipedia says it's said agujetas, which I've never heard. Is there another non-medical term for muscle fever?
I've heard only "envaramiento", so people say in Spanish
Wikipedia says it's said agujetas, which I've never heard. Is there another non-medical term for muscle fever?
According to RAE agujetas is correct, and it is a term I have heard several times the day after playing an intense football match, skiing,..
Dolor muscular is self explanatory.
The medical term would be mialgia, and in English is myalgia, origin on the greek words myos(muscle)+algos(pain)
musculo agarrotado
musculo engarrotado
Envaramiento it is a new word for me but is correct:
Envaramiento es la acción de envarar o envararse
Entumecer/entumecido is repeated on these definitions so it is correct.
In my opinion all these alternatives should be used when is painfull and makes it hard to move.
An alternative could be punzada or tirón muscular, but it is usually used when the pain is strong and short:
An example: Desde que tuve el accidente tengo unas punzadas en la espalda que no me dejan dormir.
About agujetas:
In fact several Catalan speakers use it in catalan (agulletes) but it is not correct, and this is due to the Spanish influence (agujetas).
In Mexico we say "entumido" (numb) or "adolorido" (in pain). I'm not sure where in Mexico they say the former, but in Guadalajara we say the latter. For example,
There might be regional terms for that, but I've never heard anyone say "envaramiento" or "agujetas". A more regionally neutral way to say it would be

I am wondering if there exists a Black Scholes pricing formula for a collar option?
Your question lacks a bit of background to make sure that you are using the right terminology.
In short, you buy an interest rate collar to hedge exposure in rates when they get out of a zone. As you can see on the wiki page when you buy a collar, you essentially:
with the same underlying rate and maturity.
As a result, you make a profit when $r>K_c$ and and loss when $r<K_f$. Hence, if you have a short exposure to rates (i.e. you are willing them to go down, for example if you own a bond) then you are giving away any profit beyond $K_f$ and getting insurance against any loss beyond $K_c$.
So, the value of your collar is:
$$v_\text{collar}= v_\text{cap} - v_\text{floor}$$
You can price both the cap and the floor using Black's formula, and you get the value of the collar.
Note that you can take the exact same opposite position which is then called a reverse collar.
SRXX has talked about Intrest Rate Collar. Since it is not clear if you are looking for IR or equity here is my explaination of equity Collar
Equity Collar :-
As you can see the Max gain / Loss is limited which the objective here

Lancaster and Andrew Jackson seek to keep it rolling.
Buford and Indian Land bid to rebound.
Lancaster, the lone unbeaten in the county at 3-0, hosts York to cap a three-game home stand. Andrew Jackson is back at home for its second home tilt against the IL Warriors.
Buford has a tall order in its hopes for rebounding from a loss to Lancaster.
Bruins' coach Bennie McMurray said the Cougars are one of the best 1-2 teams around.
PAGELAND The unbeaten Central Eagles soared from the start on the way to a 42-6 home win over Indian Land on Friday night.
The Eagles, behind the play of junior running back Mardu Smith, roared to a 30-0 halftime lead on the way to the 36-point victory.
The Warriors' loss dropped their record to 2-1.
BOONETOWN Andrew Jackson snapped its two-game losing streak in a big way, rolling over North Central, 50-2 in Boonetown on Friday night.
AJ junior quarterback Darrien Henderson paced the Volunteers with 212 yards rushing, including three touchdowns. Henderson also threw for 65 yards in the 48-point win.
The AJ defense limited NC's vertical passing game to just 82 yards and four first downs. The defense also scored twice.
The Lancaster High School girls golf team defeated Hartsville High School 204-219 on Monday to improve their record to 4-1.
Haley Heath continues to dominate the matches, as the medalist with a nine-hole score of 39.
Alexandria McCain and Carly Funderburk each posted a 54, while Rachel Hovis shot 57 and Carley Snyder had a 63.
Amy Grant had the low score for the Hartsville Lady Red Foxes with a 51.
The LHS girls face Nation Ford and Rock Hill next Monday at the Springfield Golf Course in Fort Mill.
Lancaster High School senior kicker Alex Roach and offensive lineman Seth Cobb earned honors at the weekly meeting of the Founders Tri-County Football Coaches Association.
Roach, a first-year senior player, was 5-5 on extra points and drilled a 38-yard field goal in the Bruins' 38-0 win over county rival Buford High School on Friday night at Memorial Stadium.
Roach, who also handles the Bruins' kickoffs, had two kicks to the end zone and two more inside the BHS 10-yard line.
The late Lester Robinson, former managing editor of The Lancaster News, said it better that I ever could in the Dec. 13, 1995, edition.
In a column about the death of Lavoy Darlington Bauknight two days prior, Robinson wrote, "When the Rev. and Mrs. P.L. Bauknight moved into the First United Methodist Church parsonage in the mid-1930s, little did Lancaster people know then what an impact their son would have here."
To be honest, that might be an understatement.
The University of South Carolina at Lancaster received quite a gift at the kickoff celebration to honor 50 years of serving Lancaster County and the surrounding communities.
Founders Federal Credit Union, much like USCL in its commitment of service and community involvement, produced plenty of smiles with its generous gift.
Founders President and CEO Bruce Brumfield presented the school, started in 1959, with a $1 million check.
No doubt you remember where you were eight years ago today. Almost all of us can recall what we were doing when we heard the news that terrorist-hijacked airplanes slammed into the Twin Towers in New York City.
It was a typical Tuesday deadline day in the newsroom as we scrambled to prepare our Wednesday edition of The Lancaster News.
Issues that demanded our time and undivided attention faded as we watched the events of that fateful day forever change America.
Both former first lady Laura Bush and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich backed up the president of the United States this week. That's news because of the great divide between Democrats and Republicans, liberals and conservatives, left and right, or whatever labels you want to put on the two prevailing political ideologies.
With its different colors and textures, sushi is edible art.
I can't remember when I first tried this exotic, aesthetically pleasing Japanese delight. I don't do the eel, salmon or raw fish varieties. I'm happy with some crab, spicy shrimp or vegetarian sushi.
On a recent Saturday night, I had the joy of eating dinner with Donna and Cecil Weaver of Lancaster. Donna, whose heritage includes Japanese, is from Hawaii, which has its own unique twist on sushi.

The visitors took the lead after just four minutes through Arjen Robben and made their passage safe with Thomas Muller's goal 12 minutes from time.

I have this problem. I like to plan projects, and to define what will be and not present; I also like to create graphics, and also to develop most of the project, but when it comes to details, I simply notice I am not that good; I am terribly bored about finalize everything. How should I focus myself to make a project final and release it? Is there a scheme to follow which would allow me to pursue a plan and finally to find the day to finalize. I am a solo programmer. Perhaps, something like a Gantt? What are your strategies about planning and timelining?
I have the same problem. I adore the planning and preparation part of things but have a hard time calling it "finished" or "ready". Perhaps my experience will be close enough to yours to offer some insight.
I work in media production, and a friend once told me that you never really finish a project, you just get sick of working on it. That is certainly the case with me. I tend to get lost in the details, and never finish.
I've found that the best thing for me is to NOT work in isolation. I always try to collaborate, forcing me to be accountable to others. Perhaps you could work with an intern or programmer friend who loves the details and can take over once you're bored.
Another strategy about working with others (clients, collaborators) is that you can let THEM set the schedule. I've got some interns that have to submit a weekly report of what they've done for me during the week. If I don't give them work by Monday, they don't get their reports done and don't get a good grade. I don't get an intern next semester if the University doesn't feel I have enough work to give them enough experience. So I've got TWO people forcing me to turn over websites for testing in a timely manner. By letting someone else dictate the date that I'm finished--whether a real deadline or a fake one to motivate me--really helps. Since I'm so good at the planning end of things, I can create a very clear picture of HOW to get to that deadline.
The takeaway is that people have different skills. Some people are planners, some people are doers, some people are implementers, etc. You're in a great position in that you recognize what you're good at and where you need to improve. I've found that surrounding myself with others who are good where I'm lacking helps me learn. By understanding where I need improvement, associating with people who are good with things that I'm not and paying attention to their techniques, I can let them teach me valuable skills I can use in the future.

Go large, Mr. Romney
WASHINGTON — In mid-September 2008, Lehman Brothers collapsed and the bottom fell out of the financial system. Barack Obama handled it coolly. John McCain did not. Obama won the presidency. (Given the country's condition, he would have won anyway. But this sealed it.)
Four years later, mid-September 2012, the U.S. mission in Benghazi went up in flames, as did Obama's entire Middle East policy of apology and accommodation. Obama once again played it cool, effectively ignoring the attack and the region-wide American humiliation. "Bumps in the road," he said. Nodding tamely were the mainstream news media, who would have rained a week of vitriol on Mitt Romney had he so casually dismissed the murder of a U.S. ambassador, the raising of the black Salafist flag over four U.S. embassies and the epidemic of virulent anti-American demonstrations from Tunisia to Sri Lanka to Indonesia.

Access to your personal information
Why do you keep information about me?
We need some information about you so that we can:
- find out what social care services you need
- make sure you are getting the services that you need
- make sure these services help you stay independent and safe
- plan the services you may need in the future.
Where does this information come from?
We get this information from:
- you, or somebody on your behalf such as a family member or friend
- people who think you may need our services such as a doctor or nurse
- agencies or organisations that help us provide the best service for you.
Who do you give this information to?
We will only give your information to staff involved in giving you the service you need.
We will only share your information on a strict 'need to know' basis with staff in other organisations who are involved in your care. Normally we will not share with others before asking you but, if you or somebody else is in danger we may have to.
We plan and commission services jointly with other organisations in the NHS (National Health Service) and the third sector. This means we sometimes need to use personal information when we are planning which services will best meet the needs of people in Birmingham.
We may also share personal information with certain external agencies, when we have a responsibility under the law to do this.
How do you look after my information?
We make sure the information we keep about you is:
- Relevant. We only keep the information we need to make sure you get a good service from us.
- Correct. We want the information about you to be true and up to date. You can help by telling us if you your personal information changes, for example if you change your name, address or phone number.
- Kept confidential. The only people who can see your personal information are those who need it to provide you with a service.
- Kept only as long as needed. We keep some information for a short time after the service we gave to you has ended. When we no longer need to keep information about you, we will not keep it or give it to anyone else.
What are my rights?
You have rights about how we collect and use information about you. For example, you have a right:
- to see information we hold about you
- to see information about someone else but only if they agree.
You also have the right to complain if you are not happy with:
- the information we are keeping about you
- how well we have kept your information safe
- how long we have kept your information
- not being able to see the information we are keeping about you.
How do I see the information you are keeping about me?
To see your personal information, you need an application form called a Subject Access Request (SAR) form.
You can get a SAR from the Corporate Information Governance Team. Their contact details are:
Corporate Information Governance Team
Performance and Information (WS)
PO Box 16366
Phone: 0121 303 4876
Fax: 0121 675 1427
Email: email@example.com
You can download and print out a copy of an SAR form using the link at the end of this page.
When you have filled in the form, you need to sign it and post it or take it in to one of our offices. You must take proof of your identity with you, such as your driving licence, passport or a utility bill (for example an electricity, phone or gas bill).
We must send you a copy of the information that you have a right to see, or arrange for you to see it at one of our offices, in no more than 40 days of getting your SAR form.
You can keep your own copy of any information we hold about you on our files.
What if the information is not true?
If you think any of the information we have about you is wrong we will change it, or make a note next to it of what you tell us is the right information.
What can I do if I am still not happy about my personal information?
If we have told you that you cannot see information we hold about you, or that we will not change or remove information you think is wrong, you can write to:
The Information Commissioner's Office
Wycliffe House
Water Lane
or call:
Data Protection Helpline
Telephone: 0303 123 1113
Fax: 01625 524 510
Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
You can also:
- apply to the courts. If you want to do this, you should talk a solicitor first.
- make a complaint by using our complaints process.

6 Things You Won't Believe Are More Legal Than Marijuana
Since we can't have a website without readers, it's important to us that you not wind up dead or in jail. So when we continue to point out crazy shit that we can't believe is still legal, we're trusting you to not run out and buy these items and then use them to destroy your whole neighborhood.
Because you totally could.
#6. A Lightsaber and Blaster Rifle
If you had any sort of childhood, you spent a healthy portion of it wishing like hell you had either Luke Skywalker's lightsaber or Han Solo's blaster. Well, got your checkbook ready?
Here's a real motherfucking blaster rifle on sale for a measly two grand.
Storm Troopers: suckers for a deal.
Information Unlimited sells high-grade scientific lasers, but unfortunately they're only intended for laboratory use. Fortunately, however, you don't have to give a shit about "intent:" All you need is a credit card and a lust for the smell of burning human flesh.
So it begins.
Oh, and this isn't just some legitimate scientific tool we're making out to sound terrifying: The manufacturer advertises it as, a "prelude to a weapon of the future." This is an actual self-contained blaster rifle with a power cell good for between 120 and 150 shots on a full charge.
It can send out a 6000 watt pulse, which is enough to "blast small holes in the hardest of metals." There are videos on the site of other class IV lasers (the same grade as this one) cutting through blocks of wood like... well, like a hot laser through wood. Depending on the lens you're using, these lasers can cut through rocks and burn hot enough to make air explode at the focus point. That's right: They can kill the air itself.
You've had it too easy for too long, Air.
But perhaps you long for a more elegant weapon, from a more civilized age. Sadly, most of us gave up our hopes of owning a real lightsaber years ago, when we realized the technology was prohibitively expensive, if not physically impossible. Some dreams must always and forever remain dreams...
Well, unless you have $300 bucks and a credit card.
OK, so the S3 Spyder Arctic isn't exactly the movie lightsaber: That can never exist because you can't have a laser beam "about yea long." But it's the next best thing: While it can't cut through a Hutt's sail barge, it could light your hair on fire or blind a man at a fair distance.
It probably works up close, too.
It so resembles a lightsaber, in fact, that it provoked a cease-and-desist letter from no less an asshole than George Lucas himself.
You will never love a woman as much as this man hates his fans.
So why are either of these things legal? Well, aside from the fact that you can buy giant deadly regular rifles for less, laser weapons are still the future. We're willing to bet that, unless you're reading this in your casual cloak from the back of your robo-spider, you probably didn't know a weapon like this existed until now. It'll be at least another few days (orders are assembled within 24 hours) before the first major crime is committed with one of these babies. That's right, readers: With a little luck and good timing, you could be the first person in history to commit a violent crime with a laser weapon.
You could shoot first!
#5. Real Goddamn Tanks
That's a Chieftain Battle Tank, and for under a grand you--yes, you personally--can use it to crush a car. There's a place in Sherman, Texas that offers this and many more tank-related adventures for a nominal fee. That's right: The next time you're rejected by a pretty girl at a crowded bar, you can just scream, "I once crushed a car with a fucking tank!" and storm out.
That's an automatic win in any argument.
But while renting a tank is pretty badass, the high-rollers among us won't be satisfied with such a fleeting thrill. So for folks with the extra cash, there are a number of online tank depots for civilian collectors. Want a T-72, the main battle tank of the former Soviet Union? Less than $50,000 and this 45-ton monster can rest in your driveway.
Come on Homeowners' Association, say something.
If you want something a little more street-legal, this Fox Armored Car will set you back a paltry $17 grand. You can own an armored scout car and drive it on the highway for less than the cost of a new SUV. Your Escalade may look "gangster," but it takes an RPG round like a little bitch.
Plus the valets will never forget you.
Civilian-legal military hardware doesn't stop at tanks, either. If you're willing to spend the time getting your pilot's license, you can also buy a working fighter jet. Everything from a 1956 "Venom" to a 2005 Northrop F-5 is available for anyone willing to pay. Prices start at around $4,500 and go up to $2 million for the nicer ones.
Sure, all of their weaponry is deactivated, but they're sunuvabitching tanks and jets. Tanks don't actually need those cannons to affect havoc: Just drive them through a grocery store, snap a quick picture with your cell phone and send it to the League of Evil. They're sure to approve your application now. As for jets, well, just tape swords to the wings or something. Shit, do we have to think of everything for you?
#4. Deadly Exotic Animals
Living in a gated community is a great way to tell the world that you are terrified of it. But concrete walls and chain-link fences can be defeated by anyone with a ladder or a decent pair of bolt-cutters. Sure, you'll keep out the low-level riff raff, but no serious criminal will be in any way deterred. No, for truly effective home-defense, you'll want to invest in a moat filled with deadly, flesh-eating piranhas.
That'll keep the Mormons at bay.
Our regular readers may point out that wild piranhas aren't nearly as dangerous as rumors make them out to be. While it's true that in their natural habitat they aren't a threat to anything larger than a guppy, when starved they are fully capable of skeletonizing a cow in an extremely short period of time. Teddy "Motherfucking" Roosevelt himself was a witness.
Go on, argue with the man.
Hungry piranhas have been known to attack any person or animal, regardless of size, that stops long enough for them to get a bite in. And those aren't always little bites: "...most injuries resulting in bites to the heel, soles of the feet and toes. More serious deeper wounds were also inflicted to the legs, arms and body. Some bites were so severe that the fish completely removed the toes, including the phalange bone."
The most aggressive fish have been known to throw themselves at full-grown plumbers.
So yes, any mad scientist (or paranoid homeowner) worth his salt would have no trouble arranging the environment (keeping them hungry) for a school of murder-fish. And the best part? It won't cost anything more than walking-around money. You can buy 10 red-bellied piranha for a mere $80. Plus they're legal in 28 of 50 states, which means most of you have absolutely no excuse for not investing in a pond full of carnivorous water monsters right now. It's just good business.
Swarms of razor-sharp fish not enough for you? How about a goddamn bear? You can buy and legally own brown bears (as well as lions and tigers) in nine states. These (terrifying) people own two fully grown bears and have a whole website dedicated to helping you do the same.
Why trust in that rack of shotguns to scare off your daughter's potential suitors, when you could raise 1500 pounds of muscle and claws to do the talking FOR you?
(Disclaimer: Bears do not actually talk, although it would be pretty bitchin' if they did).

Nearly 100 Years After Marijuana Was Made Illegal In Texas, Fight To Legalize Gets Stronger
Texas has some of the country's strictest laws against marijuana — and they date back nearly 100 years. But new polls show growing support across the state to legalize marijuana use. This weekend, drug reform advocates are gathering in Dallas for the first major drug policy conference of 2014, hosted by Mothers Against Teen Violence. Read More

Senior Vice President
Debra A. LaMorte has served as Senior Vice President for University Development and Alumni Relations since 2001.
LaMorte is responsible for coordinating all fundraising initiatives for the University and for delivering the philanthropic resources required for NYU to meet its academic and programmatic goals for students and faculty. She is also responsible for creating the necessary programs and infrastructure to engage alumni, parents, and friends and to keep them connected to NYU as they pursue their lifelong careers.
In fall 2013, LaMorte and NYU President John Sexton launched the "Momentum Campaign" with the ambitious goal to raise $1 billion by 2017, exclusively dedicated to generating scholarships. Through this worthy endeavor, NYU stands ready to educate the leaders of the future, unlocking the potential and unleashing the ambition of talented men and women. Prior to this current campaign, LaMorte along with John Sexton from 2001 to 2008, led NYU's $2.5 billion comprehensive campaign to support financial aid, recruit new faculty, expand academic programs, and develop facilities. This Campaign which ended in August 2008 was the largest completed campaign in the history of education at that time—raising $3.1 billion.
LaMorte first joined the University in 1990 when she was named Director of Development and Alumni Relations at the NYU School of Law. In 1991, she was promoted to Senior Director of Development. From 1992–2001, she served as Associate Dean of External Affairs. A major accomplishment was the completion of the Law School's $185 million campaign—at that time, the largest campaign in the history of legal education.
From 1984–1989, LaMorte served as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Computer Doctor Inc. From 1979–1984, she practiced law in Cincinnati, OH.
For the past 7 years, LaMorte has taught "Fundamentals of Fund Raising" at NYU's Robert F. Wagner Graduate School of Public Service.
LaMorte received her B.A. (1975) from Antioch College and her J.D. (1979) from Salmon P. Chase College of Law.

Mountains and lakes: the perfect pairing for all seasons
Mountains and lakes, forests and meadows, breathtaking mountain peaks and the beauty of the Alpine roses. The Alpenrose hotel is surrounded by some of the most beautiful excursion destinations in Tyrol. We're proud of that. And we want to share these places with our guests too.
That is why we invite you to go on excursions and explore the region, in both summer and winter. Our Leisure guides accompany our guests several times a week to the most beautiful spots around the Alpenrose. And our reception team will gladly advise you on the destinations most worth a visit.
Contemplation while walking
The former 'Bärenbadweg' trail in Pertisau was redesigned some time ago and is now a 'path of contemplation'. Rechristened the 'Dien-Mut-Weg' its many worthwhile views, minor inclines and numerous benches entice people to stop, spend some time and go for a reflective stroll. The trail is quite manageable for children and older people too. Another purpose of this 'path of contemplation' is to remind walkers of Saint Notburga, who is still very much revered in the Lake Achen region. She lived in the 13th century and was a model of courageous action, demanding of her employer that she should have Sundays off. Her sickle miracle – she threw a sickle into the air which did not fall to the ground – no doubt helped her reputation.
Water, the source of all life
Located not far from the Alpenrose, the Dalfazer waterfall will delight eye and ear. With a roar and a rush, its masses of water fall into the valley. Best of all, visitors can contemplate this spectacle up close: the viewing platform with comfortable wellness loungers gives you the opportunity to delight in the unobstructed view of the Dalfazer waterfall and in this oasis of relaxation in the middle of nature. In addition, you can experience the rush of the waterfall even more intensely through the provided ear trumpet. A beautiful forest walking trail from Buchau/Maurach leads to this impressive natural beauty spot in around three-quarters of an hour, after which you can experience the source of all life up close and personal.

I have been working online for 3 years now and have lost more money than I have made until now. This program has turned things around for me and it can you also. The best part I love is that it not only helps me but lets me help my downline. The backoffice is unbelieveable with all the tools that it has available for you to use.

This is my second one I am buying, as a backup. I use them mostly for MP3 audio books from the library. You can pop in a class 4 micro card and notice Zero difference. I now have a 16GB card in my expansion slot and something like 11 books waiting for me. Just finished Marble's "Malcolm X a life of reinvention" (great book it proves that the "Autobiography of Malcolm X" was well part fiction but most importantly it had three chapters taken out after Malcolm's murder. His life was far more interesting and challenging than that book lays out.
Also "read" Stephen King's "Nov.22 1963, another very long book. Good enough.
Oh yeah I love everything about these Sansa clips. Light,rechargeable great sound. Also they do one thing very well. Oh I do also listen to them play podcast. I was shocked that my Ipod which I hate. Its pod cast will play on Sansa!
Looks like a great deal. The price when I just looked was $18.49 plus $3.99 shipping. Tax only charged to NY ship to addresses. I'm seriously considering this as just a fun little device. Don't have to worry about losing it, etc. Thanks for posting it!
Yes, I agree, these little guys are great. I keep one in my car and use it with the AUX input on my stereo. I keep another in my gym bag.
I bought one a year ago. I LOVE THIS LITTLE PLAYER!!!!!!! Its great. Its small, Its light. It has an SD card slot (up to 32mb) and it has a clip! Whats not to love?
Sansa Clip,oh ya that's what I'm talking about! Hard to go wrong with these little babies,I have 4 or I'd be in for one.
Sansa does make great MP3 players. I bought 3 many years ago from woot and 2 of the 3 are still running. The 3rd one still ran but got an unfortunate cracked screen after many trips in my daughters front pocket.
Great deal! I've got 2. The sound quality is BETTER and more versatile (with a built-in simple equalizer you control) than both iPod's I've owned -- more crisp, clear, with much better bass.
These are perfect for working out, extremely small and light. Get a little rubber case (http://amzn.com/B002Y32Z2C - currently $3.99 and eligible for PRIME shipping) and the thing's tough, too. Plus, since you're not breaking the bank, you won't worry about taking this great little player with you on your run/ride/etc...
I can't encourage you enough to check this little gem out.
I just bought the 8GB version at Costco. (For a lot more money!) The radio part stopped working the first time I used it.
I got the 2 gb for $12 at a store closing sale. No regrets ta all. Especially with the micro sd slot. Added an inexpensive 32 gb card, and for a total of $40 have a very compact, high capacity player. If you already have a spare micro sdhc card, even better.
In for two. I own a Sansa player, and love it. Now I can have one in each vehicle. No more riding the motorcycle to work out only to remember my mp3 player still sitting in the car.
Sold out
Sold Out :(
Find a good deal on one, buy it. Rockbox it. The added features and flexibility make it even better (latest release has USB support). The clip on the back may or may not break off for you. All of mine have. I am ok with this, it's still a great little player.
So sad....time to RIP. May I hear some Taps?
