Being a Mensan – a Gift or a Curse?by Veronica Pamoukaghlian, MA | June 26, 2011
What is the good of an intelligence when it reasons always the same way and always reaches the same conclusion?
— from CHANGE, Cuba, 2007
When Argentinean novelist Ernesto Sabato (a reputable genius) passed away a few weeks ago, the son of famous composer Astor Piazzola shared an unflattering story about him. As a middle-aged man, Daniel Piazzola confessed that he still held a grudge against Sábato for having said, "having good memory is nothing to be proud of, intelligence is what counts." as a reply to Astor's praise of his young son's memory skills.
As a Mensan (someone who passed the High IQ Society's qualifying test) I have often wondered about what Sabato, whose opinions I have usually shared, was so convinced of, namely, the assumption that intelligence is a value in itself or something to be proud of. If people are born with a certain degree of intelligence that is measurable by IQ testing, then they shouldn't be more proud of being great at calculus than of having blue eyes or lush black hair.
Personally, I think that people should only be proud of what they have accomplished with their hard work. In harmony with my argument, a reputable 2004 study covering 140 American eight-grade students concluded that self-discipline was more relevant to academic results than IQ scores. Another interesting psychometric study from Britain about the correlation between Emotional Intelligence (EI) and academic performance, which covered 650 teenage students, reached the conclusion that "trait EI has incremental validity over cognitive ability and established personality traits in predicting achievement and behavior."
So, if a healthy self-image and a good self-discipline achieve better academic results than a mere high IQ, then who is putting Mensa-level intelligence on a pedestal?
For the brief time while I was the "head" of Uruguayan Mensans, I was in charge of testing aspiring members. I had been advised by the British central not to test anyone under 16. However, I received desperate calls from eager parents who were sure that their kid was "a genius" and wanted to have them tested. As someone with an above average IQ who had enjoyed a normal childhood and no special "gifted programs" like the ones that are common in America, for example, I used to say to those parents that their kids didn't actually need to skip grades, but they needed stimulation. I used to advise them to take them to music classes and foreign language courses. I don't think my answer made them happy, though, they wanted a trophy child, much like how rich old men want young and beautiful trophy wives.
Now, where's the curse? (Aside from the possibility of having annoying parents who will make you lose part of your normal childhood by skipping grades). Well, things are not the same in school as in the real world. In my experience, Mensans or people with high IQs have it a bit easier at school, because they can generally get very good results with little work. But everything changes when they leave the school environment and move into the workplace.
A study about gifted individuals and their roles in the workplace advises managers and human resource department officers to "learn how to make a distinction between different kinds of deviant behavior of gifted individuals. A part of that behavior is perhaps troublesome, but at the same time it is necessary for them to be able to fulfill the unique innovatory role they are looking for." While the study recognizes the need of organizations to develop strategies to maximize the potential of "gifted members," it also acknowledges the fact that these people tend to cause trouble, precisely because of their "innovatory" power.
When I was studying English literature, I wrote an essay about Othello, arguing that his pride and his blind belief in his own perceptions and assumptions was what doomed the character, much more than jealousy itself. In a way, I believe this can be a Mensan's greatest pitfall. When one thinks and learns fast, one learns to learn in a certain way. When the world diverges from the results we expect, we may find it hard to adapt.
As far as intelligence is concerned, I have personally concluded that the ability to change one's mind is the highest form of human intelligence; fundamentally, the ability to recognize that one can be wrong; that is what I call intelligence. This is the best brain-training I can recommend as a former Mensan: to try to keep an open mind.

One of the things that happens around this time of year, for many people (myself included), is that there is a strong sense of longing for the warmer days of spring and summer. Considering that we had our "Christmas" dinner today, on Boxing Day, with all of the fixings (and the corresponding mess that goes along with a meal that takes nearly ten hours to prepare) it isn't surprising that by the end of the day I found myself longing for the simpler days of summer (and, perhaps, a lighter meal … like a salad … with some leftover turkey).
These feelings led me to peruse through some of my photos and I thought it might be a good opportunity to share some of my photos in the Echoes of Silence. Aside from the flowers there are two cats that I want you to see as well: the black and white one is named Dr Seuss (yes, really; although he does not really answer to it … we call him several things including Seussie, Seussman, Seusselah, and, one of my all time favourites, "Little Shit" … but that is another story). The other cat belongs to my former room-mate and is named Jackson. She could well be called a number of things … none of which are polite. Ironically, Jackson is very photogenic … just don't get too close with the camera.
Enjoy the pictures,
Wie viel ist aufzuleiden!

New site design coming soonMay 9th, 2008 at 10:18 am
In a couple spare hours recently, I have been working on a total makeover of the visual presentation of this website, epkphoto.com. The new design is nearing completion, so I felt it may be a good idea to post this little warning before I make it live. So, in the next few days, don't be surprised if you come to epkphoto.com and the site looks totally different. This new design will include a white background, so that will likely be the most shocking aspect of the change. Most of the content will be in the same places, so don't worry about me dropping any sections or radically moving around pages. Think of this as a simple visual refresh :).

A vital safety-net program
The exorbitant cost of many prescription drugs threatens providers' ability to provide life-saving medications for millions of Americans.
That is why the 340B Drug Pricing Program, which provides discounts on drugs to some health care providers who serve large numbers of low-income and uninsured patients, is so critical.
Efforts to scale back or eliminate it are the wrong prescription for advancing the health of underserved communities, and vulnerable patients would be the ones who suffer That is the message we delivered to the House Energy & Commerce Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee in a statement for the panel's July 18 hearing on the program.
Congress created the 340B program 25 years ago to give eligible health care providers financial relief from high prescription drug prices. Providers use the savings they receive on the discounted drugs to provide local access to drugs and treatments for cancer patients, clinical pharmacy services, community outreach programs, free vaccinations, transportation to patients for follow-up appointments and many other services to their communities.
Despite the 340B program's proven track record of increasing patient access to vital medical services and decreasing government spending, some are calling for changes.
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) recently called for a sharp reduction in hospitals 340B drug payments as part of its proposed outpatient prospective payment system rule for 2018.
CMS argues that its proposal will help address the high cost of prescription drugs. But the reality is that most seniors will not see a substantial change in drug costs by cutting Medicare payments for hospitals serving poor and vulnerable people. And while the agency's proposal may be part of a solution to reining in drug costs, it does nothing to advance efforts to expand vulnerable patients' access to affordable drugs.
Of course, the cost of prescription drugs is rising at an alarming rate. But that is not the fault of the 340B program, which accounts for less than 3% of the pharmaceutical industry's $457 billion in U.S. sales. Factors like consolidation among pharmaceutical companies and tactics that delay entrance of lower-cost generics have led to steep increases in the price of prescription drugs.
So, we are understandably troubled when the pharmaceutical industry and its supporters continue to make unsubstantiated claims about the program to persuade Congress to scale it back significantly or eliminate it altogether.
Such action would force hospitals to curtail or even eliminate services that are essential to keeping patients and communities healthy.
Congress should heed the concerns of providers on the front lines of care – and toss aside the arguments of those who wish only to add to the record profits of pharmaceutical companies.
Preserve the 340B program. Protect the safety net upon which our most vulnerable patients rely.

Gari and Gake: Confusing But ImportantThere is little doubt that the concept of Gari and Gake is confusing to new Judo students. The simple explanation usually given is that Gake means to block and Gari means to reap as in a semi circular action with the foot. But as with most word translated from Japanese to English things are never that simple.
|Stand Tall:Respect and Affect

Of course the question remains just how important it is to know the difference?
I Think It Does MatterI think it does matter, at least to some degree. Understanding the meaning of the name of a throw can often mean the difference between a good execution and a poor one.
On the other hand a name is a just a name if the execution of the throw is explain properly by the Judo instructor.
A Good Name Is An Aid To Learning And UnderstandingStill a good name has always been an aid to learning and I have found that students remember the movements of the throw more easily if they understand the name.
There is one other reason for learning the names and their meaning and it became very clear to me when I had a new student come to me who had done a significant amount of training with another school that had no interest in teaching the name of throws. Instead of names they used numbers. That is: Throw 1, Throw 2 etc.
This system was a great help to the student who struggled with learning another language(Japanese) but made my communication to him much more difficult. This is because there was no way of me knowing which throws were numbered what. And despite being quite advanced a Judo student he had no idea of what I was asking him to demonstrate until I taught him the names.
Basically a very compelling reason for learning both the names of the throws and there meanings as best as you can is to make sure there is good universal communication between students and instructors.
In short I think that it is well worthwhile to learn the difference between Gake and Gari. As well as every other name of the throws.

A representation of the exchanges of power between the source (the Sun ), Earth's floor, the Earth's ambiance , and the last word sink outer house The flexibility of the environment to capture and recycle energy emitted by Earth's surface is the defining characteristic of the greenhouse effect. The inverse sq. law is actually for an inside heat supply, the explanation for utilizing it for a blackbody heated externally is that the emission is the same as what an internal warmth supply would produce, when absorption and emission is ideal and twodimensional from a body of uniform temperature which has a floor infinitely thin and completely black. That is, not earth.
L-Theanine is extracted from inexperienced tea and evokes a targeted state of relaxation without making you tired or over-stimulated. Research exhibits that that it helps average heart charge and blood stress, and a few studies show that it reduces nervousness. In a single examine, anxiousness-inclined take a look at-takers were calmer during a test if they first took 200 milligrams of L-theanine. Together with its nootropic properties, it is also a worthy temper-enhancer. You'd need to drink plenty of inexperienced tea to really feel the effects, however it's also accessible in a capsule. four hundred-800 mg each day ought to do the job nicely.
Planting good companion crops close to vegetables can even aid in progress, style and help repel harmful bugs. Vegetation which have clusters of tiny flowers, like parsley, may even draw predatory wasps in addition to small pollinators to the backyard. My favorite mixtures are basil with tomatoes, savory with beans, oregano with peppers and French marigolds sprinkled throughout the backyard.
Wow! What a treatise you might have right here. As a chemist, I would not want to discount the findings you've made since they had been arrived at using the ideas of thermodynamics and physics. Indeed they're credible scientific discoveries. However, kindly also broaden your data on the issue of the 'greenhouse effect' by reading different publications from chemists, environmental scientists, meteorologists, astrophysicists and even engineers.
On a seventy five degree day in April, the AC was working additional time and the temperature in the home was sixty seven degrees. I was bundled up in my Snuggie with my two cats making an attempt to maintain heat. We have a 19-year-old tabby, a skinny little bundle of bones, and that is not healthy for her. Anyway, the subsequent day after work the temperature had fallen to 65 degrees and the humidity still hadn't lowered to 60%. (Humidity in an underground house needs to remain at no more than 50%, but I get nosebleeds at that degree and try to maintain ours at 60%.) I advised my husband to either turn off the (expletive) AC or activate the gasoline logs. He turned off the AC. In the past now we have found it essential to run each concurrently.

Tips on Leading a Team
In business, there will be many occasions when employees will have to work in teams in order to complete projects. Every person in a team brings a specialized skill or expertise to help see the project through to completion. When people work together, they will either have a good experience or a bad experience. Good experiences will usually lead to a successful project, while bad experiences that lead to a successful project may also complicate future teamwork.
Being able to work in a team is an essential job function of any employee. When in a team, leaders must learn to be assertive; but not be rude, they must be able to debate issues concerning the project; but not get upset if the team has other opinions, and most of all, everyone in the team must respect how different people work and how they view a project.
Leading a team requires patience and the ability to delegate responsibility. It is important to realize the skills of each person in the group and assign parts of the project to those who have knowledge in a particular area. Leading a team also means moderating debate and acknowledging different opinions. Without proper leadership skills, the team will probably not function to the best of its abilities and the project may suffer.
Tips on how to build a permanent team
In many circumstances, teams may work on a few projects each year. The people in the team may move to other teams, but for the most part, the team will not change. Building a permanent team requires several skills in addition to having knowledge about all areas of the project that will be assigned to team members. Leading a team is not easy, but with practice, leaders can get a lot of work from individual team members.
It is important that team leaders be excellent listeners. Team leaders should meet with teams together and individually to figure out who will be best suited for different areas of the project. It is important to make these decisions based on what a team member has produced in the past, other projects they have worked on, and the kind of worker they are. Giving a piece of a project that needs to be done quickly to a team member who is meticulous and who works slowly is not the best choice. Match assignments up with employees who can meet deadlines and achieve accuracy in their work.
After beginning a project, the team leader should monitor the progress of each team member and how they interact with other team members. It is important to make sure that all team members are happy and are being productive. If a team member is constantly dominating the conversation, the team leader should ask for other opinions. If a team member does not say much, the team leader should ask for their opinion. This way, everyone in the team can feel included.
Eventually, in permanent teams, everyone will adapt to each others way of doing things. But in the beginning, establishing ground rules is a good way to make sure everyone gets a chance to speak during meetings.
Tips on how to build a temporary team
The same tips apply to temporary teams as they do for permanent ones. The difference is usually that temporary teams are established to solve a problem or issue that is immediate. These teams are usually under time or other constraints that are forcing them to find answers to the problem as quickly as possible. Leading on of these teams can be stressful, but by laying out a plan and assigning specific job duties, the project should yield positive results.
Leading a team is a rewarding experience. Being observant and respecting that team members have other job duties will help create an environment that is positive and productive.

I really enjoy summer Sundays, especially the evenings when we can share a family meal together. I used to live in dread of Monday mornings but decided once the warm weather hit that it was so much better to enjoy every bit of the weekend.
One of the reasons I love Sunday's is the Ottawa Farmer's Market at Lansdowne Park. I love buying local and Sunday's evening meal is always full of local fare and this Sunday was no exception.
It was our daughter's birthday, so we picked her up and headed to the market in search of strawberries, spinach, grape tomatoes and swiss chard.
They were all there, in abundance. There is nothing like the taste of sweet local strawberries. Not the woody, oversized ones that travel thousands of miles to get to us, but the sweet delicious Ontario grown ones we remember from our Mother's kitchens. I can even deal with the price tag when we can get them like this.
There was so much colour and fresh produce, it's hard not to buy way more than I went there for. I love supporting local farmers, and getting to meet them when I am there.
A salad and simple pasta with organic olive oil, spinach, grape tomatoes and of course my cupcakes made the perfect birthday celebration and summer meal, ending yet another lovely summer weekend.
I can't wait until next weekend.

I hope you all enjoyed the stunning new Die launch over on Sue Wilson's Particraft blog last week. I thought I would showcase the wonderful matching stamps to die for this week that are designed to match the new die range
I had to start with the new Lilly Corner as it is the first sample I made when I got the stamps, I really enjoyed colouring this to look like a stargazer lily!
I stamped the Lily corner twice in watering can Archival ink. I coloured just the flowers on one of the images using a mixture of distress markers ( Worn lipstick, tattered rose etc) I ran the colour around the edges of the petals then pulled the colour out, to shade, using a water brush. I did the same with the leaves and foliage. I then added darker dots in the centre of the petals to replicate the stargazer lily look ( the stamp comes plain allowing you to colour to look like many different flowers)
Next I cut these flowers out and decoupaged them with from tape, over the first stamped image. This I coloured around the edges and then again pulled the colour out using a water brush which shed the distress ink form dark to light in the centre.
I cut an aperture using the matching die and foam mounted this above the stamped image and made the remainder of the card around this.
A simple die cut but I really think this fares the stamped image.
Card Size: 21 x 28 cm
Colours: Coconut White, Strawberry Pink ( from my stash)
Stamps: Lily Corner stamp to die for
Embossing:beaded fanfare pinpoint A4 embossing folder
Inks: Watering can archival ink, Distress markers mixed colours in pinks, yellows and greens.
Embellishments: Pearl stick pins & pink dazzler

The semi nude boys said to be about 16 years old each were allegedly caught after other friends went in search of them as they were to accompany the searching colleagues to a food establishment in Spanish Town according to reports; it was only earlier this year in February an awful fight was captured on video and shared on Facebook and elsewhere and went viral for a short time and a 2014 sex tape involving a man and a female student also repulsed many persons, many parents whose children are successful at GSAT for the institution make every effort to get transfers due to the checkered reputation of it; the student populations like some others are banned from entering some big name eateries such as KFC, Pizza Hut, Dominoes, the latter has a sign clearly banning students in uniform from entering and is strictly enforced by vigilant security guards.
The embarrassed boys were able to escape the curious and laughing mob as they ridiculed them as battyboys and such as expected. Both boys have since been transferred to another school as the teasing and bullying despite the physical attributes of them as masculine became too much to bear and was said to be affecting their grades and relations at the school. Reports suggest that they are doing relatively well in their new environment but one can only imagine the fear or concerns by the boys and their families; thankfully the parents involved did not kick them out as would the norm in other such cases. What concerns me is the issue of teenage sex of a same gender nature and the ill-preparedness of our students yet still on sex and sexuality education in schools; with the continued fearmongering and moral panic on matters such as condoms in schools and any mention of homosexuality in texts or the classroom is stupidly seen as grooming of students into 'alternate lifestyles' as voiced recently by former Education Minister Ronnie Thwaites. The incident of a student orgy earlier in May of this year at Coorville Gardens and instead of guiding the students on such matters they were instead arrested first then taken in and after much public outcry we were told counselling was on; I can imagine the sanitized structure of said counselling. In an age of instant availability of materials of all kinds, distractions for teenagers who are restless with not so engaged and indeed ill prepared parents and a national ignorance in the face or ready information on sex and sexuality; we are well on our way to the phobias and paranoia we get every now and again.
Antigay religious voices who make the rest of the church look backward and other denominations want a sanitised sex education system or curriculum; remember the Home & Family Life Education, HFLE fiasco? And just a set of questions on homosexuality while guiding students as to the legal issues attached to anal sex still was withdrawn and replaced with an edited version without the so called offending materials as designated by the aforementioned Thwaites. The nonsense on rainbow flags being flown even in the face of rainbow kites being sold to students is going to somehow groom children into homosexuality is so absurd but that was the conclusion by the goodly gentlemen in the recently cooled rainbow flag controversy from a tweet from no less a person than the Attorney General.
I can only imagine the urges the teens must have felt and we all I think at some point have fooled around in the absence of adults same gender or not; lest we forget the dolly house phenomenon, playing house as father and or mother, peeking into bathrooms perhaps or peek-a-boo to see or even small children being curious but the guidance and talk therapy is what is important to establish appropriateness, boundaries and behaviour is what parents and guardians should provide. But even they need help in parental skills as we are seeing in recent times, cognitive skills even in their cohort is much to be desired and early childhood development is impacted greatly. I remember an incident similar to this at my former high school way back in 1989 at a remote section of the school behind the technical drawing classroom. The matter was the subject of much laughter, ridicule and stigmatization even by teachers, unfortunately the students were expelled. I only got a glimpse of one of the boys then surrounded by teachers and security as other students demanded their pound of flesh as he was escorted to some safety, the pain was obvious in his eyes and I felt so helpless to aid him even as I was, like him a young gay teen feeling in the dark, possibly terrified of being outed while doing all possible not to be and blending in.
Hope the guys can move on peacefully and live it down.
Peace & tolerance

I am the proud part-owner of a 30 acre woodland in Mid Wales. Apart from enjoying just spending time there, being a steward of the land and supplying firewood for myself and others, I extract the timber for milling and construction. The trees are mainly Douglas Fir, Japanese Larch, Sitka Spruce, Oak and Ash. They all have their uses. We are replanting the land with mixed broadleaf and other species that are hopefully resillient to climate change. We are fortunate not to have been afflicted with the disease (
Phytophthora ramorum
) which is affecting so much larch all over the British Isles, so we still have a good amount of it for use.
I am always available for a chat to discuss your ideas.
Take a look through the gallery below ... I look forward to hearing from you.

This technology uses DNA amplification and membrane hybridization technique. The probe is immobilized onto nitrocellulose membrane or nylon membrane respectively.Each probe is blotted and numbered. The primer is labeled with a biotin at the 5' end in advance, so the DNA samples are labeled with biotin by specific DNA amplification. The probe hybrid with the DNA samples to test and show hybridization signal after corresponding reaction.
A. can analyze multiple sites at the same time.
(1) A number of different probes are spotted in one membrane at the same time.
(2) RDB technique can detect a variety of different genotypes simultaneously.
(3) RDB technique can simultaneously detect multiple mutations in a gene.
B. high sensitivity and specificity.
(1) PCR amplification of target genes improve the sensitivity.
(2) Many specific probes increase specificity.
There are 3 projects used for newborn screeing. Dried blood spots (DBS) on filter paper are generally used. They are Quantitative Diagnostic Kit for Neonatal Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase(Fluorimetry), abbreviated for "Neo-G6PD". Quantitative Diagnostic Kit for Neonatal Phenylalanine (Fluorimetry) is abbreviated for "Neo-PKU" and Quantitative Diagnostic Kit for Neonatal Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TRFIA) is abbreviated for "Neo-TSH", respectively.
Store the kit and its components at 2~ 8 C. The validity period of the kit is 12 months. Discard open bottles after 2 weeks. There are 480 tests per kit.
There are two methods to conduct the experiment: Express Method: Shake quickly for 10 min at room temperature. Then shake slowly for 4 hours at room temperature. Slow Method: Shake quickly for 10 min at room temperature. Then stay in the refrigerator under 2-8 ℃ overnight. Remove from the refrigerator and shake slowly for 1 hour at room temperature.
Collect and test the serum in vein. The serum should be kept at 4℃ in a short time and at -20℃ for a long time. Attention should be paid to prevent hemolysis in NSE project. Otherwise, it will lead to the release of NSE from the hemocyte, making the measured value of NSE in serum higher significantly.
Malignancy often could be found in later period and be considered as poor prognosis. If the tumor were detected in the early phase, the curability would be greatly improved. So diagnosis and treatment in early stage are extremely important. Therefore, people should have enough awareness and vigilance to malignancy. When people appear related symptoms, they must be treated actively and inspected specially.
There are a lot of special inspection methods for tumor, such as X-ray check-up, supersonic inspection, CT examination, magnetic resonance spectroscopy, endoscopy, tumor marker inspection, cytological examination, histological examination, and molecular biology examination and etc. These methods can inspect tumor in different aspects, but each one has its limitations. Tumor marker appearance plays a significant role in promoting the diagnosis of tumor in the early phase. With the development of molecular biology and the Human Genome Project, more and more specific tumor markers are found and applied, which provides a new way for the diagnosis of tumor in the early phase.
Most tumor marker concentrations have some relevance with the tumor size, growth, the degree of malignancy and classification stage, but it can't be the basis of early diagnosis or definite diagnosis separately. Currently tumor markers applied can't distinguish benign disease and malignant disease. The possibility of malignant disease can not be ruled out even if the concentration is lower than the normal reference values, due to those tumor marker concentrations increased in many benign diseases. Therefore, the detection results of tumor marker is only for clinical reference. The clinical diagnosis and treatment of patients should take the symptoms, medical history, other laboratory tests and treatment response into consideration.
Many benign diseases may occur abnormal tumor markers. For example, PSA concentrations in hypertrophy of prostate and prostatitis may increase mildly and moderately,CA125 concentrations in endometriosis may increase mildly and moderately. The concentrations of CA199, CA50 and ferritin in acute hepatitis or chronic hepatitis may increase in various degree. CA125 concentration effected by female menstrual cycle may change up and down significantly. The concentration of CA199 and CA50 in biliarytract diseases with jaundice often increase obviously. A variety of tumor marker concentrations in long-term smokers rise mildly. So the test result of tumor markers can't be the basis of early diagnosis separately. The clinical diagnosis should take result of re-examination, the symptoms / signs, medical history, and other laboratory tests into consideration.
The sensitivity and specificity of the most tumor markers are not good enough. The detection of sensitivity and specificity would be improved by multiple target joint detection. It is rceommended to test the tumor marker by various combinations of detection and choose different packages for different tumors.
It is unnecessary to be nervous when an index is positive in one inspection result. After eliminating some factors that affect test results (such as smoking, chronic diseases, physiological cycles, etc.), and then make a decision whether to review once within 2 ~ 4 weeks. If dynamic test results still increase significantly, it indicates that there may be a tumor. And it need to be checked up further by other ways, such as imageological examination and cytopathology examination and etc.
(1) Some inflammatory benign diseases will lead to the increase of some tumor markers. For example, AFP, CA19-9 and CEA may rise when benign liver disease appear. (2) There are some changes in physiology. For example, AFP, CA125 and HCG will increase in gestation. Normal menstrual cycle can also affect the measured value of CA125. (3) Rheumatism and other autoimmune diseases may lead to the increase of tumor markers measured values. (4) Smoking, intemperance and other bad habits can affect people's health, which may also cause abnormal tumor markers sometimes.

If the slides from the same box appear the situation consecutively, please contact LBP company for support. (4) Please make sure the slides are preprocessed and used in the same day. The preprocessed slides must be dried vertically. Do not lie flat. (5) When the Laboratory ventilation facilities is not complete and the humidity is high, the slide prepared that is not totally dry (it need to be paid special attention in wet weather) could be dried in the incubator over 37℃(The highest temperature is best not to over 60℃. Make sure the slides are completely dry before use).
(1) Adjust Hematoxylin time to make sure the results meet the diagnostician reading requirement. (2) Use non-LBP preserve solution. Please use supporting LBP preserve solution to ensure that the reagent is matched. (3) Check PH value of buffer and purity of absolute alcohol one by one. Make sure the matched reagent meet the requirement. After staining, soak the slides in absolute alcohol. Make sure the purity of absolute alcohol meet the requirement. (4) Make sure the wet mounting followed the standard operating procedure.
(1) Check PH value of buffer and purity of absolute alcohol one by one. Confirm the matched reagent meet the requirement. After staining, soak the slides in absolute alcohol. Make sure the purity of absolute alcohol meet the requirement. (2) Laboratory humidity is higher than 75%, and it may affect EA/OG staining environment. Please keep laboratory in dry environment, close windows and doors in rainy day and wet weather. A dehumidifier is recommended to provide a stable environment for the equipment. (3) Alcohol or xylene need to be replaced in time, please change them every week to satisfy a large quantity of specimens operation. In wet weather, replacing depends on the situation. (4) Adjust EA/OG stain time to make sure the result meet the diagnostician reading requirement. (5) After replacing all the alcohol and xylene, the specimens is still not fully dehydrated, please use two extra bottles of xylene, and add a little absolute alcohol (about 10ml, depend on the circumstances) into one of the bottles. After staining, put the slides into alcohol tank for 10 seconds, and then put them into xylene alcohol bottle for about 3 minutes, and then put them into pure xylene bottle for more than 5 minutes.
(1) After second centrifugation, the cells cluster is not fully oscillated by Vertex Mixer, please make adjustments until they are scattered. (2) Please contact clinicians about the detail on specimens collecting
Please contact clinician about the detail on specimens collecting.
(1) Replace the xylene. (2) Make sure the xylenetime is more than 5 minutes. (3) Check the quality of neutral balsam. (4) Use proper intensity in wet mounting. Confirm no bubble in the slide.(5) Check the purity of matched reagent (especially the absolute alcohol) to make sure that the auxiliary reagent meet the requirement and the slide is dehydrated fully before wet mounting.
(1) Please communicate with clinicians to ask about whether having paid attention to relevant precautions on sampling and whether having taken down cervical cell brush head and placed in conservation bottle.(2) Observe whether the ones with few cells are totally transferred to sheet processing chamber during transfer or not.(3) Confirm whether parameter setting is incorrect and cell settlement adhesion time is insufficient or not.
(1) Please evacuate the pipeline before slide processing; residual cleaning solution dilutes dye liquor.(2) Additions of reagent and dye liquor are consistent, which leads to inadequate washing and uneven dyeing.(3) Confirm whether pipeline is clogged or not. Please pay attention to dredging and cleaning.
(1) Check buffer water pH value and washing fluid purity one by one to ensure that the purities of washing fluid and xylene meet the requirements after dyeing is completed.(2) Laboratory humidity is higher than 75%; air humidity is large. Which causes EA/OG dyeing environment poor. It is recommended that users keep laboratory dry before slide processing and close doors and windows in case of rainy or humid weather. Users who use machine better install a dehumidifier at the laboratory to stabilize dyeing effect and machine operation. (3) Alcohol or xylene is not replaced timely. Customers with many samples better replace once a week. Change frequently according to circumstances if humidity is high.(4) Adjust EA/OG dyeing time to ensure compliance with diagnosis reading of doctors; (5) In case that dehydration is still incomplete after alcohol and xylene are all replaced, prepare two cylinders of xylene and add a small amount of anhydrous alcohol to one of cylinders (about 10ml, add appropriately according to the situations). Dehydrate the completed slide in alcohol cylinder for about 10 seconds and then put to xylene with a small amount of anhydrous alcohol for about 3 minutes, after which put in pure xylene for transparency for about 5 minutes.
(1) Patient is not suitable for sampling or sampling approach of clinicians causes blood and mucus of sample excessive.(2) Please confirm whether applying special filter to the sample in accordance with operating procedures or not.
(1) Suction mixing of samples before sample transfer is insufficient (2) Oscillation of vortex mixer after centrifugation is insufficient; cell group is not fully broken up. It is necessary to adjust the angle to oscillate continuously until cell block is fully broken up. (3) Parameter setting is inappropriate; the sample suction quantity is too large or precipitation time is too long.
(1) Replace xylene;(2) Please ensure soaking time of xylene is over 5 minutes;(3) Check whether neutral resins have degeneration or not;(4) Please confirm whether excessive compression of cover glass exists during mounting and whether there are bubbles during mounting or not; (5) Inspect whether purities of supporting reagents (especially washing fluid) meet the requirements one by one or not, the purpose of which is to ensure adequate dehydration before wet-type mounting.
The advantages of hybridization include: precise anatomical localization is able to be achieved highly sensitively and nondividing cells can be used for determining copy numbers and the presence of gene amplification. Disadvantages: it can not provide information on translational and post-translational modification piece.
Fluorescence is light energy produced by a process where high-energy radiation (such as ultraviolet or X-ray) is absorbed by electrons surrounding an atom and is re-emitted as light energy. Phosphoresence is light energy produced by a particular type of chemical reaction where the excess chemical energy of the reactants is given off as light energy.
Yes, FISH can be used to detect and localize specific DNA and RNA targets in cells.
Probe size is important because longer probes hybridize less specifically than shorter probes, "a short strand of DNA or RNA (often 10-25 nucleotides) which is complementary to a given target sequence, it can be used to identify or locate the target.".
This technology uses DNA amplification and membrane hybridization technique. The probe is immobilized onto nitrocellulose membrane or nylon membrane respectively.Each probe is blotted and numbered. The primer is labeled with a biotin at the 5' end in advance, so the DNA samples are labeled with biotin by specific DNA amplification. The probe hybrid with the DNA samples to test and show hybridization signal after corresponding reaction.
A. can analyze multiple sites at the same time.(1) A number of different probes are spotted in one membrane at the same time.(2) RDB technique can detect a variety of different genotypes simultaneously.(3) RDB technique can simultaneously detect multiple mutations in a gene.
B. high sensitivity and specificity.(1) PCR amplification of target genes improve the sensitivity.(2) Many specific probes increase specificity.
The shelf life is 12 months.
PCR reactive reagent kit shall be stored at -20℃. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.The reverse dot blot kit shall be stored at 2~8℃.
10 tests/kit (1 kit of PCR reactive reagent+1 kit of reverse dot blot reagent)

ISL: Delhi Dynamos Confident Despite One-Goal Deficit vs Kerala Blasters
Delhi Dynamos lost the first leg of Indian Super League semi-final 1-0 to Kerala Blasters. The second leg will be a home match for the Dynamos
Delhi Dynamos face Kerala Blasters in ISL semi-final second leg at home
Delhi Dynamos lost in the first leg
The final of the ISL 2016 is on December 18
Delhi Dynamos, notwithstanding a one-goal deficit, are expected to hold sway when they host Kerala Blasters in their second leg Indian Super league (ISL) semifinal in New Delhi on Wednesday.
Quiet for the past fortnight since the 5-1 drubbing of FC Goa, the setting is apt for Delhi Dynamos to unleash the attacking brand of football that made them such a dangerous proposition in the third season of the franchise-based league.
An explosive forward line, led by the mercurial Marcelinho, could hold the key for Dynamos as they eye a maiden ISL final berth at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, the fortress, where the Lions have not lost a single game this season.
Delhi Dynamos suffered a 0-1 defeat away in the first-leg semi-final but as they lock horns again, they will have enough reasons to believe they can overturn the deficit and make it to their first-ever final.
Heading into the must-win game in front of what should be a good turnout, Delhi have a few things they can take confidence from.
Besides being the only team to have not lost a home game, Dynamos have scored 18 goals at JLN, the most by any team in ISL this season.
"When we play at home, it is an advantage for us. To play in front of our fans is an advantage, and we are fortunate to have the second match at home and it is a good opportunity for us. I hope we are able to utilise this opportunity," said Delhi Dynamos coach Gianluca Zambrotta.
Delhi were disappointing in their away clash as they failed to trouble Kerala defence with strikers like Marcelinho Pereira and Richard Gadze having little impact on the game.
Even marquee player Florent Malouda, also the captain, was found wanting but as they return home, all of them can be expected to find form if they are to avoid another disappointment like last season when they lost to FC Goa in the semi-finals.
Tomorrow, Malouda will look to assert himself and dictate play and provide able support to the trio of Gadze, Kean Lewis and Marcelinho.
Interestingly, Delhi have scored just one goal in three ISL knockout matches.
Kerala Blasters need only a draw to qualify for their second final in three years. They will be keen to overcome Delhi or at least hold them as they will then return to Kochi for the grand finale.
That they have an unimpressive record away, is matter of concern for Kerala Blasters. Steve Coppell's side has conceded 11 goals away from home this season, the most among four semi-finalists, and managed to score just four on the road, the fewest by any team.
"We will just go out and play and I don't think you can set out and decide that we will defend or counter-attack and the game has an ebb and flow to it. But at home knowing that they have to score goals and beat us, so they might have more urgency in their play and we might be pressurised a little bit more and there is no way we will go there thinking we are 1-0 ahead. We will defend it but we will just go there and play and see what happens," said Coppell.
Kerala Blasters are the only away team which failed to score in Delhi this season.
Besides, they are on a four-match winless run away from home. Even if they fail to score again and fail to win, it will be fine with Coppell. All that his team needs to do is ensure Delhi Dynamos do not win to return to Kochi for one final battle.
Blasters midfielders Mehtab Hossain and Azrack Mahamat have gone about their job diligently, and Coppell also relies a lot on forwards C S Vineeth, Duckens Nazon, Kervens Belfort and Mohammed Rafi. For sure, the in-form Vineeth will be the man to watch out for.
The impressive Sandesh Jhingan, as usual, will have his task cut out on the right.
Up against the fluent Delhi forward line, the role of men like Aaron Hughes and Cedric Hengbart at the back will be key. Delhi will hope the defensive duo capitulates under pressure.

-Rick Hellman. Chiropractor, father of 3 children. Thanks for teaching my kids. Your family is a real blessing to ours. When we decided to move, finding the right place for Savannah, Lucas, and Jacob to continue their martial arts training was a high priority to us. We are grateful we were led to your family. You guys are awesome! I love how your family and team can demand respect and discipline, while at the same time express joy and have fun with people. That's authentic and rare in this world.
Tang Soo Do and Haedong Kumdo will develop and teach you to have a feeling of security through physical fitness, coordination, poise and grace. Most importantly, these arts will provide peace of mind, self-discipline and self-confidence. Consider the following aspects:
No one was born with a particularly strong body and spirit. It has to be developed. And, like a moving machine, the body needs exercise and lubrication to keep it running smoothly. Martial arts provides such stimulus, the exercise and the discipline for a lifetime of healthy activity. One important side effect is proper weight control. This is one reason why many women are attracted to martial arts. Health and beauty go hand-in-hand.
Included in the practice of Tang Soo Do and Haedong Kumdo is training in meditation. The combination of meditation and physical activity in training has been scientifically proven to reduce stress and improve overall well-being.
Because Tang Soo Do and Haedong Kumdo promote non-violence, patience and restraint in daily affairs must be cultivated. The misuse of these arts would greatly endanger our society. Therefore in seeking something deeper than physical cultivation, we strive for mental discipline and the self-confidence and the peace of mind it brings.
In today's society everyone seems to depend on the internet when making a selection for the right school. After checking out the website, we recommend that you visit our school in order to see the facility and meet the instructors and staff. The experience you get when you walk-in the school will give you a good indicator of the environment of that particular facility and help you decide which school is the correct match for you.

Griffin Peterson is a songwriter and artist living in Nashville. He graduated from Belmont University with a degree in Music Business and is concentrating on releasing his first EP. His first two singles, Makes Me Hold On To You and Getaway, released in July 2013 and will be featured on his EP entitled Getaway. He appeared on the 12th season of American Idol and was the cover model for Colleen Hoover's novel, Losing Hope.
Griffin first realized he wanted to be a musician when he was 19 and sat down at the computer to produce his first song. He realized an entire day had gone by, and decided if he could make a living doing something that brought him that much joy on a daily basis, he didn't want to do anything else with his life. Griffin's musical influences include classic rock and blues such as Stevie ray Vaughn and Eric Clapton, and modern artists such as Ben Rector, One Republic, and John Mayer.

Even at a time where graduate degrees might not even equate to legitimate jobs, there's one fail-safe way to get ahead no matter who you are or where you went to school. It's not what you know but who you know. Granted, if you know people importance it doesn't help if they don't have contacts in your desired field of interest.
Still, it pays more to have a used car salesman's mentality than that of the school teacher. Not that teaching and nursing jobs (among others) aren't in high demand, but you gotta be a certain type of dick to get by these days. Wanting something doesn't mean you will get it. You have to work, work, work, work, work more than Rihanna has and/or ever will in her life.
Sometimes you have to sacrifice to make ends meet and sometimes it just doesn't happen. So when you go to people for help and understanding, you don't expect to be given the metaphorical (and sometimes literal) shaft. As the market comes back and people are still unfriendly during interviews the real jerks will be unearthed.
What I can't wrap my head around is the multitude of people that find a reason to post job opportunities on social media only to rescind them. Perhaps they do this to gauge interest in listings or maybe they just do it because they can. Regardless, Facebook chat/Twitter/etc will remember those of you who suck at life. Karma may not be a real thing, but you will get yours.

Belt Furnaces and Lehrs
Belt furnaces, tunnel kilns and lehrs are continuous heat treat furnaces designed for high production. The ware is placed on a conveyor or sagger manually or automatically and, while traveling through the furnace, it is exposed to different temperatures and atmospheres. This design is more energy-efficient as a batch furnace, since the furnace refractory doesn't need to be heated and cooled for every load. On the other hand, firing ware with different heating profiles and atmosphere is more challenging since this is determined by the belt speed or pusher interval.
The term lehr refers to a long kiln where glass is annealed while sitting on a belt and transported through the temperature-controlled kiln. The general term for these types of continuous furnaces is belt furnace. The maximum temperature for fuel-fired or electric lehrs is determined by the material of the conveyor belt and the atmosphere in the furnace. For most applications, temperatures up to 1600°F are sufficient, but Inconel belts and ceramic belts can withstand higher temperatures.
We commonly build continuous heat treatment belt furnaces with added quench tanks.
General capabilities
- For temperatures up to 2400°F
- Electric and fuel fired heating systems available
- Custom built to match temperature profile, width and height
- Air, inert and reducing atmospheres available
- Automated loading, unloading and storage systems available
- Honeywell and Rockwell control systems available
- Full data logging and trending
General applications
- Metal applications
- Ceramic applications
- Electronics
