To date, this study is the largest air travel survey of women with LAM, and provides some revealing, albeit retrospective, data on the experiences of air travel in women with LAM. It should be noted, however, that women who were waitlisted for or who had undergone lung transplantation for end-stage disease were excluded from this study, therefore findings may not generalise to women with more advanced disease. Nonetheless, the group of women who travelled by air had, on average, better dyspnoea scores than those who did not, and there was a wide range in values of dyspnoea scores for both women who flew and those who did not. Therefore, the participants include women with LAM who had differing severities of disease, thereby affirming the generalisability of our results.. Although hypoxaemia-related problems such as dyspnoea and chest pain occurred during air travel in women with LAM, these results yield an approximate risk of 2% for pneumothorax. Although the risk of pneumothorax is small, it is ...

I am continually amazed and horrified by the new lows we keep seeing in air travel. Its basically become a flying cattle car where ever form of bad behavior is being seen. Its tough for many of us as growing up flying in the 70s it was a whole different mind set. It was a privilege to fly, we dressed up, we acted like humans etc ...

Singapore and Hong Kong on Saturday postponed the start of an air travel bubble meant to boost tourism for both cities, amid a spike in coronavirus infections in Hong Kong.

This paper offers a perspective of the formation of the transport Security Administration (TSA), as well as its impact on Air travel.

The Transportation Security Administration reported its lowest air travel numbers of the summer on Tuesday. In early August the agency reported its highest numbers post-pandemic.

Bottom trawling is a fishing technique whereby heavy nets are dragged along the bottom of the seabed gathering up everything in its path. Not only does it totally destroy the benthic layer, the important top layer of the seafloor, they are also indiscriminate which means they catch juvenile fish and species they were not necessarily hoping to catch. This bycatch is usually thrown back in the sea, but most of it does not survive. Fishery policies can often exacerbate this problem resulting in perfectly good eating fish being thrown back in order to ensure that quotas are not exceeded.. If that wasnt bad enough, a new report published in Nature has now shown that bottom trawling releases as much carbon as air travel. The marine sediments at the bottom of the ocean are the biggest carbon sink on the planet and they play an important role as an excess carbon reservoir. If they are left alone the carbon can stay there for millions of years. However, if the bottom sediments are disturbed the carbon ...

Rates of PCI declined by a relative 10.5% from 2010 to 2017 (232.8 vs 260.2 per 100,000, PJAMA Cardiology.. The sole driver of that decline was a 34.4% drop in elective PCI (from 165.3 to 123.6 per 100,000), which largely occurred in the early part of the study period from 2010 to 2013.. That early shift likely reflected ongoing impact of the 2007 publication of the COURAGE trial, which emphasized the role of medical therapy in managing stable ischemic heart disease by showing that PCI had no outcome advantage.. Since 2013, those rates have stabilized, potentially owing to waning influence of the trial on clinical practice as well as an increasing population rate of patients with MI undergoing PCI, Yehs group noted.. Urgent PCI rates rose by a relative 15.0% over the entire study period (P. These patterns mirror what the data and guidelines tell us to do, so that is good to see, commented Deepak Bhatt, MD, MPH, of Brigham and Womens Hospital Heart & Vascular Center and Harvard Medical ...

Follow me on Instagram at sharpharmade! . Tuesday August 23, 2016 is Ride the Wind Day. Theres no better feeling than the wind in your hair as you look out at a beautiful horizon. Ride the Wind Day is an excellent opportunity to marvel at all things flying, and perhaps take part in some flying yourself. Wind powers movement in many different ways, helping us travel through air and over water, as well as providing us with energy to use in our homes. Created to celebrate the anniversary of the first man powered flight, Ride the Wind Day is a fun day that all members of the family can take part in. Some ideas for celebrating this special day include kite flying, windsurfing, hang gliding, making and sailing boats, watching birds soar through the sky or simply a picnic on a windy day, watching the wind in the trees. Children will love making paper airplanes or other flying toys and watching them zoom through the air. ^sPm - #sharpharmade Fr Days of the Year. #fit #linkinbio #lpt #tweet #twitter ...

Vibrations play an essential role in the natural behaviour of animals, particularly among invertebrates. For example, spiders and antlions use vibrations produced by prey during hunting (Mencinger-Vračko and Devetak, 2008; Guillette et al., 2009; Nakata, 2010), and larval leafminers use vibrations to detect and avoid parasitoid wasps (Djemai et al., 2001). Animal vibrations can be transmitted both through the air (sound) and through the underlying substrate (most often plant tissue) as substrate-borne vibrations (Cocroft and Rodríguez, 2005). The substrate-borne component of vibrations can be particularly important in some contexts such as during insect communication because vibrations produced by small animals can be more efficiently transmitted through the substrate than through air (i.e. as sound) (Barth et al., 2005; Cocroft and Rodríguez, 2005; Mortimer, 2017).. Most studies of insect vibrations have focused on vibrations produced for communication or as a by-product of flight (Tercel et ...

This guide discusses the practice of weatherizing your home through weatherstripping. Selection of materials, types of weatherstripping and buying and installing these products are discussed. Insulation is not the whole story for energy conservation! Even if your home is well-insulated, energy may be wasted through air infiltration. Air can leak around doors and windows, foundations, chimneys, exterior plumbing, etc. In the winter, air heated by your furnace is lost to the outside; in summer, hot outdoor air puts an extra load on your air conditioner. If your home is typical, one-half to three-quarters of your fuel bill is the result of air infiltration. Weatherizing your home by caulking and weatherstripping can effectively reduce energy waste. In fact, the cost of caulking and weatherstripping can usually be paid back in energy savings in less than one year. This makes weatherizing one of your best investments in energy conservation. Even better, it is something that you, the homeowner, can do!

Electric resistance heat can be supplied by centralized forced-air electric furnaces or by heaters in each room. Room heaters can consist of electric baseboard heaters, electric wall heaters, electric radiant heat, or electric space heaters. To learn about electric radiant heat and electric space heaters, see the radiant heating and small space heaters sections. It is also possible to use electric thermal storage systems to avoid heating during times of peak power demand.. Electric Furnaces. Electric furnaces are more expensive to operate than other electric resistance systems because of their duct heat losses and the extra energy required to distribute the heated air throughout your home. Heated air is delivered throughout the home through supply ducts and returned to the furnace through return ducts. If these ducts run through unheated areas, they lose some of their heat through air leakage as well as heat radiation and convection from the ducts surface.. Blowers (large fans) in electric ...

Posted November 01, 2018 09:56:07A coronaviral pandemic that has killed more than 4,200 people in five countries and affected the world economy has been sweeping through the globe.. Heres what you need in the meantime:1.. Whos at risk?. The virus is spread by direct contact with the saliva of infected people.. It is spread in the air by direct breathing and is spread through contact with bodily fluids from infected people or contaminated objects.2.. What is it called?. An coronaviruses is a type of virus that causes severe illness that can be caused by multiple coronaviri.. It also has a number of symptoms, such as fever, cough and sore throat.. The two main types of coronaviris are respiratory syncytial virus and paratyphoid coronavire (PCV-1).3.. What causes them?. The coronaviroids have been spreading through air, water and food for centuries.. The first case of respiratory synce, known as a coronavirin, was reported in the 17th century in Europe.. But the virus evolved into a type that can ...

This ability to filter out extraneous sound and information is vital for paying attention and concentrating. John is not able to do this and every noise has the same importance or the same sound value.. John knows that he is supposed to be paying attention but other sounds, pieces of information or even thoughts keep intruding and demanding his attention. This has been an ongoing problem and good, prolonged attention has never properly developed.. One of the primary reasons for this is that John has an Auditory Processing difficulty described as hyper sensitivity to Bone Conduction - this was clearly seen when John completed a Listening Test.. We hear sounds in two ways, through Air Conduction i.e. our ears, and through Bone Conduction i.e. our bodies, (have you ever felt a sound in your body, perhaps the low bass sound in a disco, or the rumbling of lorry outside on the road? This is bone conduction). When the correct relationship between listening through Bone conduction and Air conduction ...

The most common causes of pneumonia include bacteria, viruses and other kinds of fungi that affect certain parts of the lungs of a human being. Is a highly contagious disease and has a tendency to spread through air particles. Healthy people can contract this disease through the breath and this leads the germ in their lungs and respiratory system that causes people to develop the disease.. People who have a weak immune system, such as the elderly and children and those people who have contracted other diseases such as cancer or HIV are prone to contracting this virus. Drinking excessive amounts of alcohol, smoking and work in unregulated temperature also increases the chances of a person who could develop pneumonia.. The influenza A and B usually attack the human body during the spring. Along with these two diseases, comes the synovial virus. Flu shot are usually administered to protect the person from the strain of virus that is trying to attack your system.. There are several symptoms of viral ...

Scholarly writing on the music of Arvo P rt is situated primarily in the fields of musicology, cultural and media studies, and, more recently, in terms of theology/spirituality. Arvo P rt: Sounding the Sacred focuses on the representational dimensions of P rts music (including the trope of silence), writing and listening past the fact that its storied effects and affects are carried first and foremost as vibrations through air, impressing themselves on the human body. In response, this ambitiously interdisciplinary volume asks: What of sound and materiality as embodiments of the sacred, as historically specific artifacts, and as elements of creation deeply linked to the human sensorium in P rt studies? In taking up these questions, the book de-Platonizes P rt studies by demystifying the notion of a single P rt sound. It offers innovative, critical analyses of the historical contexts of P rts experimentation, medievalism, and diverse creative work; it re-sounds the acoustic, theological, ...

A few weeks ago, a friend of ECGs held a limoncello making party. Although he lives smack dab in the middle of the city, hes got a lemon tree out back, and has more lemons that he could possibly use himself. So, he picked half of them, asked all his friends to bring a liter of Everclear or Vodka (after making it myself a couple times now, I prefer Everclear over vodka for a cleaner lemon flavor), and threw a party. Imagine the scene: a room full of Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, and English voices swimming through air rich with the scent of hundreds of lemons being simultaneously zested by happy people. Several party-goers arrived hoping it was a limoncello drinking party, their eyebrows raised and curling lips expectant, but, when discovering that the limoncello wouldnt be ready to drink for a few months, had faces that melted into disbelief. A few bottles of wine and beer sufficed for those who were disappointed; however, most of us were drunk on the lemon-oil-rich-air. My hands were ...

We leave bits of ourselves everywhere we go - skin cells, eyelashes, teardrops. We also collect bits of the universe as we pass through - air, dirt, a basil pesto chicken sandwich. By this continuous process of exchange, pieces of us become part of the greater universe, and the universe part of each of us.With […]

Diffusion is the name for the way molecules move from areas of high concentration, where there are lots of other similar molecules, to areas of low concentration, where there are fewer similar molecules. When the molecules are evenly spread throughout the space, it is called equilibrium. Imagine half a box filled with yellow balls and the other half filled with blue ones. If you set the box on something that vibrates, the balls will start to move around randomly, until the blue and yellow balls are evenly mixed up.. Think about the way pollutants move from one place to another through air, water and even soil. Or consider how bacteria are able to take up the substances they need to thrive. Your body has to transfer oxygen, carbon dioxide and water by processes involving diffusion as well.. Lots of things can affect how fast molecules diffuse, including temperature. When molecules are heated up, they vibrate faster and move around faster, which helps them achieve equilibrium more quickly than ...

Flu virus from bird. - Jumps to pigs. - Mutates. -Jumps to humans. - Causes problems for us. - Potential 2 Billion people can be affected. Q. So, who are at risk from this H1N1 virus?. A. Well, practically anyone and everyone is at threat as the virus spreads through air too. But people with diseases such as 1. HIV+ 2. Tuberculosis. 3. Diabetics. are at a much higher risk of catching this infection.. Q. So, is there any cure to this infection?. A. H1N1 is a virus, which are neither dead, nor exactly alive. Its hard to explain, but heres a simple one:-. Outside, they exist as dead organisms, inside a host body, they become alive!. ...

The SARS Coronavirus causes general infection with Viremia, especially severe pneumonia and intestine infection. It is transmitted primarily through droplet infection. Due to its resistance to dryness, it can also be transmitted through air. It is thought that the incubation period of SARS is usually 2-10 days and the average is 5 days (Okada and Tashiro 2003). In the pandemic of 2002-2003, most countries reported a median incubation period of 4-5 days, and a mean of 4-6 days. In the incubation period, it is unlikely an infected person will spread the disease through droplet infection. The infectious period is thought to be about two weeks, with its peak from the 7th-10th day after infection (Okada and Tashiro 2003). Transmission efficiency appears to be greatest from severely ill patients who are experiencing rapid clinical deterioration, usually during the second week of illness. Maximum virus excretion from the respiratory tract occurs on about day 10 of illness and then declines to 0% by day ...

I love snail mail. Lets start with that. I love receiving handwritten notes. I love going through the bills and spam and seeing a personally scribbled letter made out especially for me.

X-rays are a form of radiation, like light or radio waves, that can be focused into a beam, much like a flashlight beam. Unlike a beam of light, though, X-rays can pass through most objects, including the human body.. When X-rays strike a piece of photographic film, they can produce a picture. Dense tissues in the body, such as bones, block (absorb) many of the X-rays and appear white on an X-ray picture. Less dense tissues, such as muscles and organs, block fewer of the X-rays (more of the X-rays pass through) and appear in shades of gray. X-rays that pass only through air appear black on an X-ray picture.. Many centers are changing from film to using computers for digital pictures. ...

Provided that you leave behind a little bit of additional space in your finances to deal with these tax obligations, you should be actually just fine. This no-tax quirk does not relate to Booking.coms air travel search, where our company appeared for our price comparison despite tax obligations, Booking.coms air travel was still (usually) more affordable than the competition.. Booking.com doesnt give boat trip or even trip booking, unlike sites like Travelocity, so it is actually more challenging to maintain each of your itinerary in one area. In addition, while Booking.com carries out possess vehicle rental options, our team discovered this component lacking. In our screening, our company were rarely used cars and truck rental options in our searches, as well as when it did use results, the modification was actually limited.. Due to this, it is actually greatest to catch to hotel areas and aircraft tickets when utilizing Booking.com. Travelocity provides an one-of-a-kind task scheduling ...

The potentially deadly strain, known as XDR-TB, was first identified about 18 months ago in South Africa, where it killed 52 of 53 infected people. Though health officials said the risk of widespread infection within the U.S. public is low, we felt it was our responsibility to err on the side of abundant caution and keep the Georgia man in isolation, said Dr. Julie Gerberding, the CDCs director. CDC officials said they were scrambling to locate the airline crews and dozens of passengers from the two flights the patient boarded: Air France Flight 385 from Atlanta to Paris on May 12, and Czech Air Flight 0104 from Prague to Montreal on May 24. Health officials said the crews and any passengers seated near the patient are at highest risk and should be immediately tested for TB. The man, who knew before his trip that he was infected with a form of TB that was difficult to treat but was not aware he had the deadlier strain, drove from Montreal back into the U.S. on May 24. By then, tests confirmed ...

Hit by a powerful missile, it had no chance. Blown out of the air, the jet went down. All passengers and crew were killed.. Quickly, almost immediately, in the confusion of the immediate aftermath, with tempers up and the loved ones just learning of the tragedy, the politicians did what they do best.. They talked and made rhetorical fists. Some demanded revenge, and if not revenge, they called for swift, decisive action. Some were sincere, but others used the chaos to push their own agendas or those of their nations.. And who was to blame for the missile attack on the civilian jetliner and the deaths of all those people?. The United States of America.. Because it was one of two U.S. surface-to-air missiles fired from the USS Vincennes that destroyed Iran Air Flight 655 on July 3, 1988.. The Iranians were outraged. The Soviet Union pressed for advantage in the Middle East. Many nations expressed sympathy for the dead, and then they used the tragedy to leverage their agendas at our expense.. Our ...

Sorry for any non UK readers of my blog as this next piece isnt really of much relevance to you. One major change to our trip is this time instead of flying British Airways from Heathrow to Oslo and having the expensive of an overnight stop in Oslo and then catching an internal Norwegian Air flight from Oslo to Tromsø the next day, we are flying on a new route operated by Norwegian Air that flies directly from Gatwick to Tromsø. This saves a considerable amount of money as Norwegian Air charge just £6 each way for each individual hold baggage weighing upto 20kg so making the total cost just £48 for all our luggage (4 hold bags). Compare this to BA where you get one hold luggage free each but they then charge £34 each way for each excess luggage bag upto 23kg and on top of this you have the cost of the baggage for the flight from Oslo to Tromsø with Norwegian Air which is £6 for each individual item of hold luggage each way. We have therefore saved somewhere in the region of £120 plus ...

In finance, model risk is the risk of loss resulting from using insufficiently accurate models to make decisions, originally and frequently in the context of valuing financial securities. However, model risk is more and more prevalent in activities other than financial securities valuation, such as assigning consumer credit scores, real-time probability prediction of fraudulent credit card transactions, and computing the probability of air flight passenger being a terrorist. Rebonato in 2002 considers alternative definitions including: After observing a set of prices for the underlying and hedging instruments, different but identically calibrated models might produce different prices for the same exotic product. Losses will be incurred because of an incorrect hedging strategy suggested by a model. Rebonato defines model risk as the risk of occurrence of a significant difference between the mark-to-model value of a complex and/or illiquid instrument, and the price at which the same instrument ...
