![]() In this case, a friend or family member of the recipient donates blood to replace the stored blood used in a transfusion, ensuring a consistent supply. A 'replacement donor' donation is a hybrid of the two and is common in developing countries. Directed donations are relatively rare when an established supply exists. A 'directed' donation is when a person, often a family member, donates blood for transfusion to a specific individual. An 'allogeneic' (also called 'homologous') donation is when a donor gives blood for storage at a blood bank for transfusion to an unknown recipient. Generally, the notion of donation does not refer to giving to one's self, though in this context it has become somewhat acceptably idiomatic.Ī blood collection bus ( bloodmobile) from Japanese Red Cross at Myōdani Station in Suma-ku, Kobe, Hyōgo Prefecture, Japanīlood donations are divided into groups based on who will receive the collected blood. This has led to some increased interest in autotransfusion, whereby a patient's blood is salvaged during surgery for continuous reinfusion-or alternatively, is self-donated prior to when it will be needed. Most of the components of blood used for transfusions have a short shelf life, and maintaining a constant supply is a persistent problem. The collection can be done manually or with automated equipment that takes only specific components of the blood. The amount of blood drawn and the methods vary. For example, in the United States, donors must wait 56 days (eight weeks) between whole-blood donations but only seven days between platelet apheresis donations and twice per seven-day period in plasmapheresis. How often a donor can donate varies from days to months based on what component they donate and the laws of the country where the donation takes place. The donor must also answer questions about medical history and take a short physical examination to make sure the donation is not hazardous to their health. The screening includes testing for diseases that can be transmitted by a blood transfusion, including HIV and viral hepatitis. ![]() Potential donors are evaluated for anything that might make their blood unsafe to use. Donating is relatively safe, but some donors have bruising where the needle is inserted or may feel faint. ![]() People can also have blood drawn for their own future use ( autologous donation). In countries that allow paid donation some people are paid, and in some cases there are incentives other than money such as paid time off from work. ![]() However, this is reversed during disasters when blood donations increase, often creating an excess supply that will have to be later discarded. Despite the many reasons that people donate, not enough potential donors actively donate. Many donors donate for several reasons, such as a form of charity, general awareness regarding the demand for blood, increased confidence in oneself, helping a personal friend or relative, and social pressure. In some countries, established supplies are limited and donors usually give blood when family or friends need a transfusion (directed donation). Today in the developed world, most blood donors are unpaid volunteers who donate blood for a community supply. Blood banks often participate in the collection process as well as the procedures that follow it. Donation may be of whole blood, or of specific components directly ( apheresis). From left to right: Two cell separators for apheresis, secluded office for pre-donation blood pressure measurement and blood count, and on the right, chairs for whole blood donations.Ī blood donation occurs when a person voluntarily has blood drawn and used for transfusions and/or made into biopharmaceutical medications by a process called fractionation (separation of whole blood components).

He became aware that the company was having trouble, so he asked a good friend who was a controller there how to get hold of a store. “It was a key punch-type, card-driven system.” “It was a big monstrosity,” Manning said.

In real life, Beard is the Fox evening anchor for the L.A. Beard plays the local Fox news anchor on the show. So in anticipation of the upcoming season we looked back at the series’ twenty most meta meta-moments. It’s easy to picture the first episode starting off with a wink at the show’s long hiatus and cancellation, because that kind of self-knowing joke is what the show always did: Arrested Development was not afraid to acknowledge it was a TV series and its characters were actually just actors. The unveiling of the fourth season of Arrested Development is less than a week away. ![]() But then it gets confusing so I back up to reread a page, and the story changes.Īnother common event is that people and things in my dreams can be indistinct until I pay close attention to them. For example, I've had dreams where I fell asleep while reading, then continued to read in my dream making up the story as I went. I don't notice patterns changing that much, but I do know that text changes. I've only had a few lucid dreams and I don't have great dream recall, but when I wake up at the right moment I can remember my dreams vividly, and think through the dream events with my fully conscious mind. You notice the inconsistency, even if you can't quite recall what the pattern was before. It seems like one of the very few ways we have to inspect our own mind and I'm just too curious to not want to do that. if I ever have enough time again to really train it I will probably give it another try. ![]() Messing that process up might certainly have disadvantages. We know it has to do with learning - but there are also theories that it has to do with forgetting unimportant things. Then there is also the part that to get into lucid dreams you have to think a lot about dreams.That simply costs time, especially if your job is already about thinking (like programming).Īnd certainly we still don't know enough what dreams are actually for. Also dreams started to get more intense - which isn't always a good thing as a waking up from a cruel dream can mess up your thinking seriously for the rest of the day. So some sub-conscious part of me obviously wasn't really wanting the lucid dreaming. Like my mind finding more and more clever excuses telling me in dreams why I'm not dreaming despite obvious dream-like things happening. I did learn to do some lucid dreaming in the past, but did stop it again after some weeks.įirst I found it already harder after the first few successes to get into the lucid state. ![]() There are around 4 holes the piglins can fall on, and each hole contains 24 minecarts, for a total of 96 minecarts (requires around 480 iron to make). The piglins are killed using entity cramming, and because they're angry at you, they also drop XP. The killing method is fairly simple but expensive. Also, the farm had satellite piglins stationed around the farm, so that when new piglins spawn, they instantly get angry at the player. At y= 256, build a circular glass platform to prevent ghasts from spawning. The donut-shaped platforms start at y= 247, then the 2nd and 3rd layers start at 250 and 253 respectively. Ilmango's design consists of 3 circular shaped platforms made from magma blocks. The production rates are good, though the only problem for this farm is when another player is in the overworld, the piglins will despawn and the second issue is it has no dedicated storage, meaning players can either make a primitive one or an automatic sorter. The zombified piglins will gradually push each other to go to the second portal and go to the killing chamber, making it an easy kill for the player. In the overworld, 2 portals are built high up in the air, one where the zombified piglins came from and one where the killing chamber is located. The zombified piglins are attracted to the turtle eggs hidden behind the portal and will attempt to crack them, only for them to be teleported to the overworld. The farm's optimal location is in a nether wastes biome below the nether roof. This farm is fairly easy to build, though it requires some digging so a Diamond Pickaxe enchanted with Efficiency II or up is recommended. Shoot ranged weapons at zombified piglins to anger them, and they converge on the cactus, which helps to kill them. Put hoppers connected to a large chest to collect the loot more easily rather than attaching a door to the trench since more zombified piglins might jump in and attack.Īnother strategy is to place cactus in the nether, and then stand on a block on top of it. It is done! You can also use magma blocks which only zombified piglin can spawn on(if you are on 1.16) To get maximum spawn rates, slab off the blocks in a 128 block diameter. Turn on subtitles, so you can hear when you can come out. Shoot zombified piglins and swipe at them with a sword on their legs after they jumped into the trench. The simplest zombified piglin farm is to dig a 3x3x1 trench and make a layer of dirt leaving a 1 block space. ![]() To construct a farm in the Nether, one can build platforms for zombified piglins to spawn on, with trapdoors on the edge, and place slabs on the floors of all surrounding areas (or just fill them in), so zombified piglins only spawn on those platforms. ![]() IPhone 12 Pro Max, iPhone 13 Pro Max, iPhone 14 Plus: 1284x2778 IPhone Xs Max, iPhone 11 Pro Max: 1242x2688 IPhone X, iPhone Xs, iPhone 11 Pro: 1125x2436 IPhone 6 plus, iPhone 6s plus, iPhone 7 plus, iPhone 8 plus: 1242x2208 IPhone 6, iPhone 6s, iPhone 7, iPhone 8: 750x1334 IPhone 5, iPhone 5s, iPhone 5c, iPhone SE: 640x1136 IPhone: iPhone 2G, iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS: 320x480 He also tracks ship movements on his Twitter page.MacBook Pro 13.3" Retina, MacBook Air 13" Retina, MacBook Air 13.3"(2020, M1): 2560x1600 Dual monitor: He does a pretty good analysis on Subs of all types and some of his YouTube vids are quite informative.

They recently expanded their Bohai shipyard in Huludao allowing the construction of bigger submarines at a greater rate.Īll in all, their capabilities are quickly approaching the NATO navies in the next few years, but it remains to be seen whether they can overtake them with new western designs like the Columbia and Virginia-class for the USN, the Astute and Dreadnought-classes for the RN and the Suffren-class and the developing SNLE-3G SSBN for the French. They also seem to want to increase production in the coming years. For example, the Type-039C bears some resemblance to the swedish A-26. And for the SSKs some are equipped with AIP which means that they are shifting away from Russian designs like the KILO-class and towards western ones. However, for their SSNs it seems that they build a type, become dissatisfied with it, and build a new one. Their SSBN fleet is catching up to the Ohio-class in terms of capabilities and stealthyness(?). They are relatively good compared to Russian subs.

The National Survey of Children’s Health (NSCH) tracks the percent of California children who have experienced ACEs. The more ACEs an individual has experienced, the higher their risk climbs. 2 ACEs are traumatic childhood experiences - which include abuse, neglect, and being exposed to violence, mental illness, divorce, substance abuse, or criminal activity in the home - that often leave people more vulnerable to environments and behaviors that can lead to poor health. 1Īdverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) affect nearly two million children in California across socioeconomic lines, putting them at risk for health, behavioral, and learning problems. Learn More » about Reducing First-Birth Cesarean Birth RateĪdverse childhood experiences have a lasting, harmful effect on health and wellbeing. Narrowing variation and lowering the average C-section rate will lead to better quality care, improved health outcomes, and reduced costs. The C-section rate among low-risk, first-time mothers (also called Nulliparous, Term, Singleton, Vertex (NTSV) Cesarean Birth Rate), is the proportion of live babies born at or beyond 37.0 weeks gestation to women in their first pregnancy, that are singleton (no twins or beyond) and in the vertex presentation (no breech or transverse positions), via C-section birth. Current trends in maternity care show that many pregnant women undergo procedures such as C-sections, repeat C-sections, and labor inductions that may not be medically necessary. Complication rates for women also increase with each C-section delivery. ![]() Learn More » about Reducing Infant MortalityĬesarean (C-section) deliveries can be life-saving procedures when medically necessary, but they carry a higher risk of negative outcomes for mothers and babies. Of course, being able to access high quality health care also matters. Optimal health also includes managing stress, strong social support, education, economic stability, and being able to live in healthy neighborhoods for physical activity and community safety. Women’s health is multifaceted and includes good nutrition, reducing or quitting smoking, and avoiding excess alcohol use. Considering nearly half of pregnancies are unplanned, it is critical for women to get healthy now. Infant mortality is linked to women’s health status with healthier moms having healthier babies. About two-thirds of infant deaths occur before a baby is one month old, and the remaining third between two and 12 months of life. The infant mortality rate is measured as the number of infant deaths before one year of age for every 1,000 live births in that population. Infant mortality is an important indicator of the overall health and well-being of the population. The infant mortality rate is regarded as a highly sensitive measure of population health because there is an association between the causes of infant mortality and other factors that influence the status of whole populations such as economic development, general living conditions, social well-being, rates of illness, quality and access to medical care, public health practices, and quality of the environment.
