Bamboo massage

Bambus oldhamii Bamboo Massage - A relaxing massage performed using bamboo sticks that are rolled over the body. Chopsticks have different thicknesses and lengths as they are adapted to individual techniques and body size. They need to be properly prepared for the massage: first thoroughly washed, then disinfected, and finally heated and maintained at elevated temperature to keep warm throughout the massage. Description of the massage The main tool for the specific character of this massage is the bamboo sticks. Manual techniques begin and end the massage, and they function as fasteners between successive movements made with sticks (mainly when changing their thickness). To fully appreciate the benefits of massage, it is essential to ensure the optimum temperature of the room where the massage is performed, as the masseur works on large, exposed parts of the body. Extremely helpful is also the relaxing music and aromatherapy. At first, the masseur uses larger diameter sticks to p

Carburizing (energetics)

Coal from the mine is transported by means of conveyor belts directly to the coal and transported by rail to the recipient, eg to the power plant Carburizing - the process of supplying coal or other solid fuel to industrial furnaces or steam generators. Carburizing system includes a set of equipment and auxiliary installations used for: receiving coal from external means of transport, mechanization of coal storage sites, pre-coal preparation (sorting, crushing, mixing, averaging) and transport to cisterns. Generally, carburizing units are: Choosing the carburizing system and the devices that make up this system is influenced by many factors such as the power of the plant and the nature of its load, the location of the power plant in relation to the mine and the inhabited area, the type of fuel, construction and operating costs, operator safety and reliability actions. This causes the individual carburizing systems to vary considerably. Literature Damyzy Laudyn, Maciej Pawlik, Fra

At the end of the war he returned to Poland, where he entered the Carmelite Order and was preparing for the priesthood. In the 1950s, after emigrating to Israel, he asked for Israeli citizenship. He argued his request for origin and cultural identity, which he always acknowledged. Some parts of Judaism recognized him as a Jew. The authorities refused to grant him citizenship because of his confession. After appealing to the Supreme Court, Rufeisen was completely unsuccessful. He then applied for Israeli citizenship as non-Jewish. Six years later, he was granted citizenship. For the rest o

Military Criminal Court

Military Criminal Court - military court of the Kościuszko insurrection established on August 23, 1794 by the Supreme Commander of the National Armed Forces General Tadeusz Kosciuszko. The sluggishness of dealing with cases of treason of the people of the Confederation of the Targowic Confederacy by the Criminal Court of the Mazovian Duchy, and the submission of court members to the influence of conservative circles led to an uncontrolled outburst of the Warsaw population, who overturned the suspects. Kosciuszko, wishing to pacify the mood, became a Polish robber and suspended formally the Criminal Court of the Duchy of Mazovia, introducing in his place the Military Criminal Court. This move has terrorized the immediate surroundings of King Stanisław August Poniatowski, who saw in this court the equivalent of the Revolutionary Tribunal in France. competence He took over all the competences of the Criminal Court of the Duchy of Mazovia.

Spontaneous process

The spontaneous process in thermodynamics, also called natural time, is a process that can be accomplished without having to work on the layout. Spontaneous processes are always accompanied by increased entropy. The processes in which entropy is reduced are never spontaneous. The result of the spontaneous process is always the execution of the system by a certain work. Non-hospital procedures can not work - on the contrary - they need to do some work on them. The fact that the process is spontaneous does not mean that it always has to happen. Most spontaneous processes must first overcome, resulting from their kinetic course, the barrier of the energy potential. These processes therefore require an energy pulse, but this pulse is always less than the energy triggered by the process, resulting in a positive work balance. One can say that the spontaneity of a process is a thermodynamic expression of its tendency to occur, rather than the absolute necessity of its occurrence. wiki

Principle - physical fitness found experimentally and, according to the opinion of scientists and paradigm in physics, universal and general. Rules are experimental, such as the principle of conservation of energy or the principle of entropy growth, and are not derived from any kind of strict description, although they may be based on specific fields of physics such as thermodynamics, classical mechanics or quantum mechanics. This is precisely the principle of physics that differs from the law of physics, which can be derived from the model of the phenomenon in a strict way. The law usually deals with a strictly defined group of physical phenomena, such as Wiena's law, Lenz's law, Ohm's law. wiki

Betza cells

Betach cells or giant pyramidal cells - a type of pyramidal neurons located in the V layer of the gray primary motile cortex (M1). They were described in 1874 by the Ukrainian anatomy and histology of Vladimir Betz. They are one of the largest central nervous system cells, their pericarbors are even 100 μm in diameter. Betza cells send axons into the spinal cord, where they form synapses with the frontal horn cells, thus forming the first pyramidal neuron pathway (the name of the pyramidal cells, however, took the shape of the pyramids before the exact path of the pyramids was known). Betza cells have one apricot dendrite, like other pyramidal cells, and there are numerous asymmetric dendrites branched in different cells, most of which occur in the V and VI layers of bark, and deeper into the white matter of the brain. According to one study, Betza cells accounted for up to 10% of the population of all pyramidal cells of the Vb layer of the original cortex. wiki

Adult (transactional analysis)

Adult - in transactional analysis is one of the states I, the child and the parent. It is characterized by logical thinking, a constructive approach - such as a progressive person "grows". The action that initiates this state Me is oriented to the present and the objectivity. The person "coming out" from such an attitude in contact with another person answers the question: how to solve it? What is important in a given situation? Is the activity necessary and what form should it take? The way of functioning of an adult is based on analyzing reality and estimating probabilities, so a common but not quite true comparison is to refer to a computer that is cool to analyze facts and to draw logical conclusions. This condition is especially useful for professional and difficult interpersonal relationships with other adults. In psychoanalysis, the equivalent of the Adult is the ego. wiki

It is an indirect method of determining the presence of internal factor (IF) in gastric juice. The test consists of labeling What Vitamin B12 and determining the radioactivity of urine as a measure of excretion of the compound. The test is carried out in several phases. In the first phase, the patient must be fasted; after passing urine, p.o. (orally) vitamin B12 labeled Co at 1 μg, and after 2 hours i.m. (intramuscular) dose of 1000 μg vitamin alone. Radioactivity measurement is performed in the urine collected 24 hours after vitamin B12 administration.

In the second phase of the test, vitamin B12 is administered together with an internal factor (IF) to exclude malignant anemia. The name of the study came from his inventor, Robert F. Schillin

In 1686, the prince of Savoy Viktor Amadeus II decided to "finally solve" the Walden problem by forcibly evacuating them to Switzerland. First, they set up their families in special camps (which can be considered as prototypes of concentration camps). Settlements began in January 1687. The Waldensi, (2700 people, grouped in 13 columns), had to walk in the middle of winter on high alpine peaks; Many of them died on the way.

Their contribution was initially not noticed, probably because their work was published in Norwegian. Also after the publication in 1867 in French the importance of their dependence was not appreciated. The key importance of the law of mass action was noted and publicized by scientists at Oxford, W.
