Jellyfish are free-swimming members of the phylum Cnidaria. They have several different basic morphologies that represent several different cnidarian classes including the Scyphozoa (about 200 species), Staurozoa (about 50 species), Cubozoa (about 20 species), and Hydrozoa (about 1000-1500 species that make jellyfish and many more that do not). The jellyfish in these groups are also called, respectively, scyphomedusae, stauromedusae, cubomedusae, and hydromedusae; medusa (plural medusae) is another word for jellyfish. Jellyfish are found in every ocean, from the surface to the deep sea. Some hydrozoan jellyfish, or hydromedusae, are also found in fresh water. Most of the information about jellyfish that follows in this article is about scyphozoan jellyfish, or scyphomedusae. These are the big, often colorful, jellyfish that are common in coastal zones worldwide.
In its broadest sense, the term jellyfish is sometimes used also to refer to members of the phylum Ctenophora. Although not closely related to cnidarian jellyfish, ctenophores are also free-swimming planktonic carnivores, are also generally transparent or translucent, and occur in shallow to deep portions of all the world's oceans. Ctenophores move using eight rows of fused cilia that beat in metachronal waves that diffract light, so that they sparkle with all of the colors of the rainbow. The rest of this article deals only with jellyfish in the phylum Cnidaria.
Jellyfish don't have specialized digestive, osmoregulatory, central nervous, respiratory, or circulatory systems. They digest using the gastrodermal lining of the gastrovascular cavity, where nutrients are absorbed. They do not need a respiratory system since their skin is thin enough that the body is oxygenated by diffusion. They have limited control over movement, but can use their hydrostatic skeleton accomplish movement through contraction-pulsations of the bell-like body; some species actively swim most of the time, while others are passive much of the time. Jellyfish are composed of more than 90% water; most of their umbrella mass is a gelatinous material - the jelly - called mesoglea which is surrounded by two layers of epithelial cells which form the exumbrella (top surface) and subumbrella (bottom surface) of the bell, or body.
Jellyfish do not have a brain or central nervous system, but rather have a loose network of nerves, located in the epidermis, which is called a erve net. A jellyfish detects various stimuli including the touch of other animals via this nerve net, which then transmits impulses both throughout the nerve net and around a circular nerve ring, through the rhopalial lappet, located at the rim of the jellyfish body, to other nerve cells. Some jellyfish also have ocelli: light-sensitive organs that do not form images but which can detect light, and are used to determine up from down, responding to sunlight shining on the water's surface.
Answer: A baby jellyfish is called a planula, polyp, ephyra.

Answer: A female jellyfish is called a sow.
What do you call a male jellyfish?
Answer: A male jellyfish is called a boar.
What do you call a group of jellyfishs?
Answer: A group of jellyfishs are called a bloom, fluther, smack, smuck, smuth.
Question: What is the scientific classification of a jellyfish?
Answer: A jellyfish has the scientific classification of scyphozoan.
Question: What class is a jellyfish in?

The hoaxer outed themselves to another online magaine, Crikey, and has chronicled their misdeed in the blog ‘Diary of a Hoax.’ This is delicious. Windschuttle was something of an ‘official historian’ for Australia’s previous Howard Government, presenting their preferred version of Aboriginal history (that there was no stolen generation, that reports of massacres were overblown) by picking at the footnotes of academic historians such as Henry Reynolds, of the University of Tasmania.
Windschuttle’s positioning of himself on the side of realism, and his opponents on the side of sophistry, is undone by this hoax — which, as distinct from the Sokal hoax, was not even perpetrated by a known and respected scientist (which at least had lent a certain credence to Sokal’s article in the minds of Social Text‘s editors).
Anyway, enough Schadenfreude. I do think it’s interesting, though, to ponder what it is that a hoax demonstrates, especially when performed across the science/humanities border: in order to destabilise ideeology. Any thoughts, anyone?
Is parody still possible? What is left in calling something a hoax? I ask this because the highly esteemed neuroscientist, Michael Gazzaniga, makes a comparable claim in his book The Ethical Brain. His idea is that the engaged scientists are the best ones to decide what is and is not permissible genetic engineering.
Not that one agrees with Gazzaniga, but in fact, the assertion on the part of authors that they were just kidding doesn’t necessarily impugn their claims. I think this is something that witnesses at trials can find when they recant their testimony.
However worthy the target, outright lying may not be such a great weapon.
PS: JF, I did so like your reflections on Shelley Tremain’s last comment. I hope you won’t mind if they show up on feminist philosophers – with due citation, of course.
I think what the anonymous author was able to demonstrate, nonetheless, was that the editor of that famously (in Australia) ideologically driven magazine let his (famously) analytical standards drop when it came to checking the facts (and footnotes) of a paper whose position he had sympathy with: and thus, the extent to which political alliance can obscure reasoning. Reading the hoaxers blog, it definitely seems to be directed personally toward Windschuttle.
But there’s more at stake: namely the relation of science to the public in a democracy. The hoax unsettles, even if it doesn’t completely upturn, the view that it ironically peddles.
Thanks for your reflections, jj. And yes, feel free to cite my previous comment. It’s out there now.

Imagine kicking off the day with eggs fried in butter/ghee and a hot cup of coffee. This perfect start to your day can go awfully wrong if you crack open a rotten egg! To solve this problem, egg boxes are stamped with their expiration date, so you can discard them in a timely manner. But, did you know that about 5 billion eggs get wasted per year (1)? A lot of eggs remain fresh past their expiration date. So, how can you prevent world food shortage without having to smell the foul odor of a rotten egg? Simple. Use the following tricks to check if the eggs are good. These methods are surprisingly accurate. Read on!
The float test is one of the best ways to check if eggs are fresh and can be eaten. All you have to do is fill a bowl with water and gently place the eggs in it. If they sink to the bottom, the eggs are fresh. If the eggs are a few days old but still good to eat, they will stand upright at the bottom in one corner of the bowl. If the eggs float, you need to discard them.
This test is accurate because egg shell is porous and allows air to pass into the eggs. Old eggs get more time to allow air inside and, thus, float in water.
It is best to hard boil eggs that are a few weeks old as their shells tend to come off more quickly than fresh eggs. You can fry or scramble the eggs that are fresh and sink to the bottom of the bowl.
Hold the eggs against a bright source of light, like a candle (this test is also known as the candle test) or a reading light. You will be able to see the air pocket in the rounded side of the egg. If the air pocket is thinner than 3.175 mm, the eggs are fresh and can be eaten. But, if the air pocket is big, and the yolk is darker, the egg is not fresh, and you need to discard it.
This method might need a little practice. So, if you are not sure if the eggs can be eaten, confirm with the floating test.
The sniff test is one of the oldest methods of checking if eggs are still fresh and can be eaten. All you have to do is sniff the egg to check if has a sulfur smell. If you can’t smell anything but are still not convinced, crack open the egg in a plate and sniff it. If it has an odd smell, discard the egg. If not, you may fry or scramble it.
Wash the plate with hot water and soap after doing this test.
Shaking an egg can also help you determine if it is good to eat. Hold the egg close to your ear and shake it. If you hear a swoosh-swoosh sound and feel something moving inside the egg, it is not fresh. Discard it. If you don’t hear anything, the egg is fresh, and you can consume it.
Bad eggs have few visible signs. Check for cracks and slimy or powdery deposits on the egg shell. Cracked and slimy shells indicate the presence of bacteria, and powdery deposits indicate mold growth. Crack open the egg and check for any green, pink, blue, or black discoloration in the egg white. If you do, discard the egg. You may also check if the egg yolk has become a little runny. If it has, do a sniff test. If it does not smell odd, you can use the egg.
Another classic way to find out if the egg is fresh is to crack it open on a plate and check the shape of the yolk at the eye-level. The yolk of an old egg will spread out, but the yolk of a fresh egg will hold its dome-like shape. To know if you can still use the old egg, do the sniff and visual tests. If there’s nothing off-putting about the egg, you can consume it.
Not the expiration date. The “sell by” date will tell you if you must discard or keep the eggs. Eggs remain fresh up to 21-30 days past the “sell by” date. Just make sure you store the eggs in the refrigerator after the “sell by” has passed.
On the other hand, the “expiration date” tells us if the eggs are less than fresh, and you can do any one of the tests mentioned above to find out if you can consume them.
If none of this information is available, check for the “pack date.” This can get a little difficult to decipher as it’s written in the Julian date format. This means that the date will be written as 001 001 for 1st January.
Those were the seven easy ways to check if eggs have gone bad. You must be wondering, what can you do with eggs that are on the verge of expiring? Well, I suggest you do the following.
What To Do With Eggs That Will Expire Soon?
The eggs that are going to expire soon can be pickled and eaten with salad. Hard boil the eggs and leave them in a jar of beet brine to get lovely, purple pickled eggs!
But, how can you store eggs to keep them fresh as long as possible? Check out the tips on storing eggs below.
The cool temperature of the refrigerator will prevent bacterial and fungal growth. Keep the eggs in the middle compartment, not in the body of the refrigerator.
Storing the eggs in the carton will keep them protected and fresh for a longer time.
Washing eggs days before using them can remove their ‘bloom’ i.e., the layer that protects the eggs from bacteria. Wash the eggs just before using them.
It is clear that eggs can be consumed past the “sell by” date or “expiration date.” In this era of food shortage, you must value food no matter what the cost. By doing a quick and simple egg test, you can take a small step toward making this world a better place. Use good storing methods and make sure that the egg can still be eaten as infected eggs may cause food poisoning. Here’s to better health and sustainability. Cheers!

A nurse put 100 gloves into 4 containers. She puts gloves in the containers in such a way that each container has two more gloves than the one before. How many gloves are in each container?
Answer: 22, 24, 26, and 28 gloves.
Let X be the number of gloves in the first container. Then there are X+2 gloves in the 2-nd container, X+4 gloves in the 3-rd container, and X+6 gloves in the 4-th container. Hence, we have X+X+2+X+4+X+6=100. Solving for X, we get X=22 gloves in the first container, 24 gloves in the 2-nd container, 26 gloves in the 3-rd container and 28 gloves in the 4-th container.

Question: How many words constitute a fictional short story? Not a short, short story but a short story.
Answer: Generally, a short story is any story under 7,500 words. Anything under 1,000 words is often termed flash fiction.
However, these definitions are not fixed. Sometimes works up to 20,000 words have been called short stories. You have to check with individual publishers (such as literary magazines, websites, contests, etc.) to see what length of stories they are looking for and what terms they are using to describe them (e.g. micro-fiction, novelette, novella, postcard fiction).
At the extreme lower end there are also "six word memoirs," such as this famous one attributed to Hemingway: "For sale: baby shoes. Never worn."

Drug Abuse and Drug Addiction - What is the Difference?
Are Drug Abuse and Drug Addiction the Same Things?
Are Drug Abuse and Drug Addiction the Same Things?
For some time now, the question has been asked as to what is worse, drug abuse or drug addiction? Drug abuse refers to simply consuming any drug substance in an abusive or recreational fashion and not as intended. This could be things like doing heroin, cocaine, or meth. It could also mean taking prescription drugs in a way that is not intended, even though you have a prescription for them. Drinking excessively or binge drinking is considered alcohol abuse. Alcohol addiction is when you get to the point that you suffer withdrawal symptoms when abstaining from alcohol. Therefore, drug abuse and drug addiction are not the same things.
Drug addiction is usually thought to be much worse because it implies a continual abuse of such a substance to the point that you are physically dependent on it. But what about marijuana addiction? Is somebody with an addiction to marijuana really worse off than someone who abuses heroin? Probably not, as it is very difficult to kill yourself with marijuana but very easy to do so with heroin.
What is and is not an addiction and what is and is not a drug abuse issue? The real fact of the matter is, that drug abuse and drug addiction often go hand in hand. Ultimately, almost all drugs, including marijuana, are addictive. If a person abuses a drug over and over, they will eventually develop a drug addiction. Arguably, drug addiction is worse than drug abuse in the majority of cases. This is because odds are that an individual starts by abusing a drug and continues using, thus developing a physical addiction to it. Individuals do not abuse drugs from time to time recreationally and not experience adverse effects to it.
Which is Worse, Abuse or Addiction?
Try to understand that in most cases, drug addiction is worse than abuse. Addiction implies that the individual now is physically dependent on the substance. They will go through withdrawal symptoms if abstaining from the drug. The only way to relieve the uncomfortable, and possibly dangerous, withdrawal symptoms is to use more of the substance. To avoid becoming even more dependent, the individual must go through a detoxification process.
What Can We do About Drug Abuse and Drug Addiction?
Drug abuse and drug addiction are problems which are surmounting every year. We as a nation have become far more lax on the subject of drugs and alcohol. There are many areas where we need to provide education on this subject. We need to start with educating our youth more thoroughly about the many dangers of drugs and alcohol. Prevention is key in stamping out substance abuse in our country. Although we will more than likely never be completely rid of drug addiction, we can provide treatment for those in need and provide informative facts on this subject to the public. Don’t let drug abuse and drug addiction overcome your world.

John is three times younger than his father, but two times older than his brother Jim. How old is John if Jim is 40 years younger than his father?
Answer: John is 16 years old.
Let X be John’s age, F be father’s age, and J be Jim’s age. Then, 3X=F, X/2 =J, and J+40=F. Solving this system of three equations for X, we get X=16.

Question: What are next two numbers in the given series? 2, 12, 360, 75600, ?, ?
The next two numbers are 174636000 and 5244319080000.

What is the minimum value possible for N to start as?
What other social or biological constraints you choose to enforce is up to you, but it is probably most fun if your initial simulation follows modern norms. Then you can skew the variables to see how bizarre a community you can create.
We’ll only need 280 pregnant women at all times (40×7), which it sounds like we have. But, given it takes a while for girls to reach fertile age, we at any given time have 2372.5 girls who are too young (13×365/2; the /2 because 50% boys). We also have 5475 women who are too old ((80−50)×365/2), leaving us with 6752.5 women in the fertile age range (14600 − 2372.5 − 5475). So yeah, there’s enough women.
How about if we impose some social rules?
That changes the number of available women capable and willing to get pregnant to 5840.
That removes a mere 730 potential women from the pool (365×2), leaving 5110 – still well above the 280 minimum.
This removes another 2737.5 women from the pool, leaving 2372.5 which is still over 8 times the required minimum.
In conclusion, that was far less interesting than I thought it was going to be. Unless I messed up the math somewhere, which I am sure someone will point out if that is the case, then you have to veer far from current biological and social norms to get interestingly crazy results.

Interrogatories are written questions sent to the opposing party in a personal injury lawsuit. Like a deposition, an interrogatory gives each side the opportunity to pose questions to the opposing party. Although the party who is served the interrogatory does not have to appear in court to respond, they are required to respond to the questions in writing as if they were under oath and under penalty of perjury.
In the state of Maryland, each party in a personal injury lawsuit can serve up to thirty interrogatories to the opposing side.
Below is a sample of an interrogatory that we, the personal injury law firm of Lebowitz and Mzhen, filed in the Circuit Court for Baltimore County on behalf of our client, the plaintiff, who fell down a stairwell while staying at a nursing home facility. We have redacted the names of those involved for purposes of confidentiality.

Giant Chess pieces are huge and awkward to carry around. By default they come in large cardboard cartons that are not particularly durable nor convenient.
These special bags are designed specifically for the storage of Giant Chess pieces. There are 4 of them so that each one stores a quarter of a 2 foot high set - a more convenient size for carrying around. Ideal for events companies or others who need to move a giant Chess set around but also a good storage facility for anyone with a Giant Chess set.
Four Giant Chess bags will store one full set of pieces with King height around 2 feet.
For the taller sets with extenders you will need 6 bags for a 3 feet high set (Chess set + 1 set of extenders) and 8 bags for a 4 feet high set (chess set + 2 sets of extenders).

The 29 locks have a rise of 237 feet in 2 miles (72 m in 3.2 km) or a 1 in 44 gradient. The locks come in three groups: the lower seven locks, Foxhangers Wharf Lock to Foxhangers Bridge Lock, are spread over ¾ of a mile (1.2 km); the next sixteen locks form a steep flight in a straight line up the hillside and are designated as a scheduled monument, Because of the steepness of the terrain, the pounds between these locks are very short. As a result, fifteen of them have unusually large sideways-extended pounds, to store the water needed to operate them. A final six locks take the canal into Devizes. The locks take 5–6 hours to traverse in a boat.

counselling can help us to understand Along our journey from birth to wherever we are right now, we encounter obstacles and difficulties. The traumas and abuses we suffer as children, the lack of consciousness with which we operate, the blind spots of our culture - all these serve to shut us down and twist our path off its basic course. Yet, the archetype of the Self contains the program to become whole. Much like a seed contains the programme to become a flower. Each time we work through a piece of our past, we return to the original pattern and pick up our evolutionary process from where it was interrupted. We reclaim a piece of our body's reality and so reclaim a piece of the temple. We break down barriers that keep us from experiencing love, barriers that obscure the truth of our divine nature. We break through the illusions that keep us from seeing clearly, from deep understanding. Each piece allows us to live a fuller and richer life - bringing us deeper meaning, about ourselves and the world in which we are embedded! counselling can help with anxiety Anxiety is normal and actually quite useful. Its role is to protect us from real or perceived harm. Unfortunately anxiety has a nasty habit of developing, growing legs and running away with itself. Treatments for anxiety rest on the principle of understanding why this happens and what can be done about it. However, we're also meant to be anxious, it's part of the human condition. There's really no such thing as getting rid of anxiety, but we can strive to contain unwanted levels, put it into perspective and try not to allow it to dominate our lives.

Warning: If you're over 35, "netflix and chill" does not mean what you think it means.
So, hypothetically, OF COURSE, should you post on insta that you're going home to "netflix and chill" with your husband, you may have just told the internet that you're planning to go home and get it on.
You will learn this because one of your fellow snapchat moms will message you and be all, um Sherri, I don't think that means what you think it means.
I'm sorry, but who decided that "netflix and chill" was anything other than watching freaking House of Cards and lounging on your couch in pjs? NOT MOMS, that's who.
The next time I promote said netflixing and chilling on any type of social media, be aware that it involves sweatpants Sherri, some chocolate, and the Real Housewives. M-kay?

It has already been a very busy autumn for me. In September alone, I participated in three juried outdoor art fairs. At the last one of that month, the highly regarded Plaza Art Fair in Kansas City, I was startled when a previous customer of mine entered my booth and said "Well, I hadn't seen you for a while so I thought you retired." When I laughed, loudly, at the statement, the woman felt that she had to explain that since she had not found me at shows where I had become sort of a regular exhibitor, she figured I'd gone on to another line of work.
I assured her that I was still in the thick of art-making, exhibiting and selling. We had a nice visit and she left. I, however, thought about what she said, for days. I have returned year after year to several of the same shows as it is an opportunity to share new work with prior collectors. It is also an ambition to break into a show where I have not exhibited and find new audiences. I have done both of those things this year, multiple times. The truth is, a too-busy road schedule means that important tasks like communicating with my loyal visitors and collectors may stay on the to-do list, for too long. Relying heavily on the Facebook post or Tweet, to announce my presence somewhere runs the risk of being missed by those who have made a point of signing up for an email newsletter or (gasp!) an actual, handwritten postcard invitation.
Centric Projects is hosting my work at their offices through the end of this year. If you stop in during the week (1814 Main, KCMO) between 8 AM and 5 PM they are happy to let you view my paintings. 25% of the art sales from this show are benefiting Gilda's Club KC. I'm pleased to meet you down there in person for a tour.
I'm thrilled to report that Roan and Black Contemporary in Saugatuck, MI is representing my work on an ongoing basis. Their lush grounds near the shores of Lake Michigan include two gallery spaces and sculpture garden. They are well-worth an in-person visit. Preview their website and see the work you'll find there.
To promote the Kansas City Artists Coalition, where I serve as a member of the Board of Directors, I'll be present with a small collection of my work at the Wine Walk on Delaware in Kansas City's River Market, on Saturday, October 15th from 5 PM - 8 PM. It should be a fun, fall evening so please come by. I will also be included in the One Night Stand members exhibition at KCAC on Friday, November 18th. All are invited to this free event and I urge you to come and buy a piece of original art directly from any of the artists exhibiting that night.
My last outdoor show of the year is River Arts Fest in Memphis, TN. Please spread the word to your mid-south friends to visit me and many of my art fair peers, October 21st-23rd.
Bizarre Bazaar at the Lawrence Arts Center, November 25 & 26th.
Open Studio & Holiday Sale, hosted by Amy Meya, 3345 Baltimore, KCMO, December 1st - 4th.
Chicago Art Girls Holiday Pop-Up, Alexander Graham Bell School, 3730 N. Oakley Ave. Chicago, IL December 10th & 11th.
If none of these happenings work on your calendar, let's schedule a studio visit. Give me 48 hours notice and I will gladly open my workspace to you. I'll serve the beverage of your choice and we can talk painting, process, life, art history and a custom piece for your space.
I am grateful to say that I'm "still here," and not retired. The thought seems impossible, but I know that without you who have supported me in my endeavor to become and remain a full time, self-employed artist, it would be an inescapable reality. So, THANK YOU! And let's keep in touch.

Mututho is poised to give other prospective contestants a run for their money as he is expected to create a political impact out of his latest move on consolidating the youths and women with an added advantage of his recent past development projects in the area, especially to the underprivileged at the county region.
Despite the fact that the incumbent, Kinuthia Mbugua commands political respect in the populous Nakuru county, Mututho says he will give the seat a second shot adding that the county needs fresh ideas, further claiming that the current leadership has failed to provide the residents’ needs.
The former Naivasha MP who was speaking at Nakuru town’s Lake Nakuru Lodge recently said if elected, he will address and champion issues affecting especially the youth, women and the underprivileged among other pressing problems afflicting the local electorate.
The Nacada boss said residents should elect leaders from the area as they are well-versed with the problems affecting locals, as opposed to outsiders.
“Nakuru has a huge economic potential but cannot be utilised properly due to bad leadership. Hence, the county is sinking into a series of strikes by county workers because it cannot be able to utilise the revenue it is collecting to up service deliver,” said Mututho.
He further said that he was duped into abandoning his bid for governor during the March 4 2013 general elections with promises that Uhuru Kenyatta wanted him to serve the nation in other capacities. Mututho had been one of the most active and vocal legislators during the tenth parliament.
If the current scenario is anything to go by, it is expected by many that at the next general elections period for the county governorship slot could revolve besides Mututho, Mbugua, Lee Kinyanjui and Francis Kimemia. Although time will tell, Kinuthia’s proponents assert that he is the right candidate for a re-election as he is revered and respected due to his articulate nature, transparency and fairness in dealing with the region’s electorate.

I really like how this app allows me to create as many folders as I want for all of my pics. Once I create a folder I can then add pics to this folder by selecting the “+” sign at the bottom left of the screen. That will bring up your Camera Roll from within the app so you don’t have to worry about closing the app to put your pics into your folder. Once you have selected your pic, you have to name it and have the option to rate it. I wish however instead of having to give a name to a photo that it would default to the actual “IMG_***” title already assigned to the photo. Minor but that way I don’t have to create a name in the case of fast filing.
Once back into your folder you can then organize by rating or by name. You can also view the photo in portrait or landscape mode (I was very impressed with this as I haven’t seen many apps that utilize the accelerometer that isn’t a game.) To view more pics just flick the photo to the left or right. This app doesn’t utilize the option to zoom which would be cool.
I also checked out a review by a user in the App Store and he was disgruntled that all you could do was file photos. He must have been looking for a mobile iPhoto app and this isn’t the app for that. This is a very basic app for filing.
I my opinion this is a great app for what it does. It is compatible with the iPhone and iPod touch. It does require the 2.2.1 software update.

Happy New Year! This is the year of the great reshuffling in college hockey as the Big Ten and NCHC start up. 2013 will certainly bring new changes, but not until the start of the next college hockey season in October.
For now, looking for the leaders and finding champion of the WCHA will occur. At the same time, we will be watching closely the new teams of the NCHC of with Minnesota Duluth will be a member.
Looking Back. Congratulations to the Michigan Tech Huskies on taking the Great Lakes Invitational, their own tournament now located in Detroit. It has been many years of struggle for the Huskies, but this year they came out scoring eight goals over two games and surrendering zero in a pair of 4-0 wins over Michigan and Western Michigan. The last GLI Championship for MTU was 32 years ago in 1980.
Minnesota State Mankato traveled east and continued their winning ways at the UConn Hockey Classic. Not the greatest of opponents in Brown and UConn, but MSUM kept up their winning ways in preparing for the second half of the WCHA season.
First half WCHA surprise Omaha also went east, but came back humbled after a pair of losses at Quinnipiac. Again, the games get the Mavericks ready to finish off the WCHA season and Quinnipiac is the top team in the surging ECAC.
The Gophers of Minnesota Twin Cities hosted their own Mariucci Classic and got back on their winning ways capped with an 8-1 drubbing of then number one ranked Boston College.
The Hall of Fame Game took place at Denver where the Pioneers unceremoniously sent Boston University home with a 6-0 loss.
In yet another trip east, Bemidji State lost two one-goal games to Massachusetts and New Hampshire on their way to last place in the Ledyard Bank Classic.
In the final of the east trips of WCHA teams was Minnesota Duluth who travelled to sunny Florida. The Bulldogs played uninspired hockey scoring two goals in two games losing 1-0 and 6-2 to Maine and Ferris State, respectively. In losing the two games, UMD took fourth in the Florida College Classic and lost a great chance to get their record to or above the 0.500 mark. Currently UMD is 7-10-3 overall, but in the hunt for the middle of the WCHA at 5-6-3 good for seventh place.
Up Next. UMD is off this weekend to try to get healthy and get things straightened out for the run to the end of their WCHA stay. Their next games will be at home against Michigan Tech January 11 and 12. Michigan Tech is also off this weekend.

Right now, Dr. Johnson is three times older than his son.
When Dr. Johnson was 37 years old, his son was 3 years old.
How old are Dr. Johnson and his son now?
Answer: Dr. Johnson is 51 and his son is 17 years old.
Assume that Dr. Johnson is X years old and his son is Y years old.
Then 3Y = X, and X – Y = 34.
Solving for X and Y, we get X = 51 and Y = 17.

The cakes change each month. Cake 1 has been made in August, Cake 2 in June, and Cake 3 in May. In what month has Cake 4 been made?
Answer:April. The number of chocolate lines on the cakes indicates the month.

Dr. Johnson needs to buy the same number of needles and syringes. The syringes are sold in packages of 6 and the needles are sold in packages of 10. What’s the smallest number of packages of syringes, and the smallest number of packages of needles, that Dr. Johnson can buy to have a matching number of each?
Answer: 5 packages of syringes and 3 packages of needles.
Dr. Johnson needs to come up with the smallest number that is divisible by both 6 and 10.
Since 6=2×3 and 10=2×5, the smallest number that is divisible by 6 and 10 is 2x3x5=30.
Therefore, Dr. Johnson needs 30/6=5 packages of syringes, and 30/10=3 packages of needles.

ACP AdvisorNet: How can I leverage my military career experience and my nursing License into an emergency medicine career.
I am an LPN with two years experience and a combat medic with 6. It appears to most Emergency Rooms my medic background gives me zero credit for training. If I take myself out of the work force for 18 months I can go back to school for RN because of my LPN training but you would think 4 years on the line and 2 years working Military Hospitals Emergency Room where I did everything from sutures to Advanced Cardiac Life Support I would be farther along.

I'm not in the medical arena, but -- depending on what your military career experience is -- it seems either local hospitals and/or first responder EMT units are always looking for those with nursing or other medical training. If this includes your military background, your resume should read well.

Chances are, when it comes to ramen, you're familiar only with the instant packages that kept you alive during those lean college years. Well, wipe that apostasy from your mind, because The Stockpot in Virginia Beach is making ramen so good you'll rethink your entire childhood.
The restaurant serves four standards and a few variations here and there. My favorites are the Spicy Miso and the Classic Shoyu.
Noodle broths and tare (flavoring agents that differentiate the varieties they offer) are made in-house and all the noodles are imported from New York. Most people you talk to rave about the ramen here, and there is a devout group of people I see here every week, quietly, methodically, enjoying these well-made bowls.

Smyle Mouse Version 1.2 improves lives by delivering hands-free, touch-free and voice-free computer control via facial gestures. Underlying gestures can also be used for hands-free control in Augmented / Virtual / Mixed Reality applications.
Perceptive Devices, which provides award winning technology in the field of Human Computer Interaction, today announced the latest release of its gesture control software, the Smyle Mouse.
“I lost the use of my arms about two years ago so whenever I used the computer I needed assistance. So I only spent about 30 minutes a day on my laptop. Now after Smyle Mouse, I use my laptop over nine hours a day without assistance,” said Jeff from USA.
“We believe that our hands-free gesture control technology can not only help millions of people around the world who have difficulties using their hands or arms, but will also be very useful for variety of enterprise as well as gaming applications, especially in the fields of Augmented, Virtual and Mixed Reality,” said Uday Parshionikar, founder of Perceptive Devices.

Their gesture control technology now is available for licensing in consumer as enterprise products, including for AR/VR/MR devices.

A torn meniscus is a common injury often caused by forcefully twisting or rotating the knee. It can also be a result of degenerative changes in older adults. A meniscus tear typically requires treatment with arthroscopic surgery.
The menisci are C-shaped pieces of tough cartilage that rest on either side of the knee, between the thigh bone and shin bone. They help to distribute body weight across the knee so it can be properly supported by the bones in the leg, and also provide stability to the knee joint. A meniscus tear is common after a traumatic injury, and most frequently occurs when the knee joint is bent and the knee is then twisted. Torn menisci most often occur in athletes and older adults whose cartilage may have worn away.
A torn meniscus causes pain and swelling, and may also be accompanied by a frequently locking joint and the inability to completely straighten the knee. Some people experience a popping or clicking sensation within the knee as well.
Treatment for a meniscus tear often begins with conservative methods such as rest, ice or over-the-counter medication. If these measures are not effective and symptoms continue, patients may benefit from meniscal repair or debridement surgery. A repair procedure, as its name suggests, has a goal of stitching together the tear in the meniscus in order to maintain its functionality. In contrast, a debridement procedure focuses on removing the damaged portion of the meniscus to alleviate symptoms and help the remainder of the meniscus to heal and function optimally. In many cases, the surgeon will not be able to determine which technique is needed until the meniscus is visualized during the surgery.
Meniscal repair is an arthroscopic procedure in which the torn edges of the meniscus are sutured together, which helps the cartilage heal properly. This allows the preservation of the meniscus in its full size, making it a desirable option under the right circumstances. The determination to make a repair to the meniscus will often depend on whether enough of a blood supply is available at the torn area to enable it to heal and function correctly. This may be the case for those patients in their early 20s and younger if the location of the tear has a sufficient vascular network to support the repair.
The meniscal debridement procedure is performed arthroscopically, with tiny surgical instruments inserted through very small incisions. This technique is more commonly used than repair due to the limited blood supply in the meniscus, which makes healing difficult. A debridement procedure involves removing the torn section of the meniscus, resulting in a smaller, but fully healthy, piece of cartilage that remains.
Recovery from meniscal repair surgery generally takes much longer than recovery from debridement. The repair requires additional time to heal, so patients must wear a supportive brace on the affected knee for four to six weeks post surgery to restrict movement. Physical therapy is recommended for several weeks to two months in order to restore flexibility and strength to the knee. Full recovery, including a resumption of athletic pursuits, may take approximately four months.
Following a meniscal debridement procedure, patients typically require the use of an assistive device such as crutches for the first few days to prevent bearing too much weight on the healing leg. Most patients can return to typical daily activities after a week and resume sports activities within two months. Physical therapy may be beneficial as well in promoting healing and helping the knee to regain complete function once again.
Surgery on a torn meniscus is common and considered very safe. However, all forms of surgery carry some risk. The risks typically associated with either a meniscal repair or debridement procedure may include infection, bleeding, injury to the meniscus or ligaments in the knee, formation of a blood clot, nerve or blood vessel damage and stiffness in the knee.
