Un virus ARN es un virus que usa ácido ribonucleico (ARN) como material genético, o bien que en su proceso de replicación necesita el ARN. Por ejemplo, el virus de la hepatitis B es un virus clasificado como virus ADN (hepadnavirus), con la peculiaridad de tener su genoma ADN de doble cadena y el genoma es transcrito en ARN durante la replicación. Su ácido nucleico es usualmente ARN monocatenario pero también puede ser ARN bicatenario. Los virus ARN monocatenarios pueden clasificarse, a su vez, según el sentido o polaridad de su ARN en negativos o positivos. Los virus ARN positivos son idénticos al ARNm viral y por lo tanto pueden ser inmediatamente traducidos por la célula huésped. El ARN viral negativo es complementario del ARNm y por lo tanto debe convertirse en ARN positivo por una ARN polimerasa antes de la traducción.

Los retrovirus, al contrario que otros virus ARN monocatenarios, usan ADN intermedio para replicarse. En la transcriptasa inversa, una enzima viral procedente del propio virus, convierte el ARN viral en una cadena complementaria de ADN, que se copia para producir una molécula de ADN bicatenario viral. Este ADN dirige la formación de nuevos viriones.

Los virus ARN presentan generalmente tasas de mutación muy altas pues carecen de ADN polimerasas que puedan detectar y corregir los errores (reparación del ADN). Los virus ADN presentan tasas de mutación mucho más bajas debido a la habilidad de corrección de las ADN polimerasas de la célula huésped. Los retrovirus integran un ADN intermediario de su genoma ARN en el genoma del huésped, y por lo tanto tienen una oportunidad mayor de corregir errores en su genoma gracias a la acción de corrección de las ADN polimerasas de la célula huésped.

Aunque usualmente el ARN muta rápidamente, un reciente trabajo de investigación determinó que el virus del SARS y otros virus relacionados contienen un gen que muta muy lentamente. El gen en cuestión tiene una estructura tridimensional compleja que se supone proporciona una función química necesaria para la propagación del virus, quizás como una ribozima. Si esto fuese así, la mayoría de las mutaciones la harían inútil para este fin y no se propagarían.

Clasificación de Baltimore y replicación

Los virus de ARN tienen genomas compuestos de ácido ribonucleico (ARN) y comprenden cuatro grupos: Grupo III:  virus ARN bicatenario, Grupo IV: virus ARN monocatenario positivo, Grupo V: virus ARN monocatenario negativo y Grupo VI: virus ARN monocatenario retrotranscrito.

Virus ARN bicatenario

El tercer grupo de Baltimore contiene virus que tienen un genoma de ARN bicatenario. Después de entrar en una célula huésped, el genoma de ARN bicatenario se transcribe a ARNm de la hebra negativa por la ARN polimerasa dependiente de ARN (RdRp). El ARNm puede usarse para traducción o replicación. El ARNm monocatenario se replica para formar el genoma del dsRNA. El extremo 5 'del genoma puede estar desnudo, protegido o unido covalentemente a una proteína viral.

El ARN bicatenario no es una molécula producida por las células, por lo que la vida celular ha desarrollado sistemas antivirales para detectar e inactivar el ARN bicatenario viral. Para contrarrestar esto, muchos genomas de ARN bicatenario se construyen dentro de las cápsides, evitando así la detección dentro del citoplasma de la célula huésped. El ARNm se expulsa de la cápside para ser traducido o translocado de una cápside madura a una cápside de progenie.

Virus ARN monocatenario positivo

El cuarto grupo de Baltimore contiene virus que tienen un genoma de ARN monocatenario positivo. Para los virus ARN monocatenario positivo, el genoma funciona como ARNm, por lo que no se requiere transcripción para la traducción. Sin embargo, los virus de ARN monocatenario positivo también producirán copias de sentido positivo del genoma a partir de cadenas de sentido negativo de un genoma de ARN monocatenario positivo intermedio. Esto actúa tanto como un proceso de transcripción como de replicación, ya que el ARN replicado también es ARNm. El extremo 5 'puede estar desnudo, protegido o unido covalentemente a una proteína viral, y el extremo 3' puede estar desnudo o poliadenilado.

Muchos virus de ARN monocatenario positivo pueden tener solo una parte de su genoma transcrito. Normalmente, las hebras de ARN subgenómico (ARNsg) se utilizan para la traducción de proteínas estructurales y de movimiento necesarias durante las etapas intermedias y tardías de la infección. La transcripción de ARNsg puede ocurrir al comenzar la síntesis de ARN dentro del genoma en lugar del extremo 5 ', al detener la síntesis de ARN en secuencias específicas en el genoma o, como parte de ambos métodos anteriores, sintetizar secuencias líder del ARN viral que luego se unen a cadenas de ARNsg. Debido a que la replicación es necesaria para la síntesis de ARNsg, RdRp siempre se traduce primero.

Debido a que el proceso de replicación del genoma viral produce moléculas de ARN bicatenario intermedias, los virus + ssRNA pueden ser atacados por el sistema inmunológico de la célula huésped. Para evitar la detección, los virus de ARN monocatenario positivo se replican en vesículas asociadas a la membrana que se utilizan como fábricas de replicación. A partir de ahí, solo el ARNm viral +, que puede ser ARNm, ingresa al área citoplásmica principal de la célula.

+ Los virus de ARN monocatenario positivo se pueden subdividir entre los que tienen ARNm policistrónico, que codifica una poliproteína que se escinde para formar múltiples proteínas maduras, y los que producen ARNm subgenómicos y, por tanto, se someten a dos o más rondas de traducción.

Virus ARN monocatenario negativo

El quinto grupo de Baltimore contiene virus que tienen un genoma de ARN monocatenario negativo. El ARNm, que es de sentido positivo, se transcribe directamente del genoma de sentido negativo. El primer proceso para la transcripción de ARN monocatenario negativo implica la unión de la RdRP a una secuencia líder en el extremo 3 'del genoma, transcribiendo un ARN líder de trifosfato 5' que está protegido, luego se detiene y reinicia en una señal de transcripción que está bloqueada, continuando hasta se alcanza la señal de parada. La segunda forma es similar, pero en lugar de sintetizar una tapa, RdRp puede hacer uso de cap snatching , mediante el cual se toma una secuencia corta de ARNm de la célula huésped y se usa como la tapa 5 'del ARNm viral. El ARN monocatenario negativo genómico se replica a partir del antigenoma de sentido positivo de una manera similar a la transcripción, excepto a la inversa, utilizando el antigenoma como molde para el genoma. La RdRp se mueve desde el extremo 3 'al extremo 5' del antigenoma e ignora todas las señales de transcripción cuando sintetiza ARN monocatenario negativo genómico.

Varios virus de ARN monocatenario negativo utilizan mecanismos especiales para la transcripción. La forma de producir la cola de poliA puede ser mediante la tartamudez de la polimerasa, durante la cual RdRp transcribe una adenina del uracilo y luego retrocede en la secuencia de ARN con el ARNm para transcribirlo nuevamente, continuando este proceso varias veces hasta que se hayan agregado cientos de adeninas al extremo 3 'del ARNm. Además, algunos virus de ARN monocatenario negativo son ambisentidos, ya que las hebras positivas y negativas codifican proteínas virales por separado, y estos virus producen dos hebras de ARNm separadas: una directamente del genoma y otra de una hebra complementaria.

Los virus de ARN monocatenario negativo se pueden subdividir informalmente entre los que tienen genomas segmentados y no segmentados. Los virus de ARN monocatenario negativo no segmentados se replican en el citoplasma y los virus ARN monocatenario negativo segmentados se replican en el núcleo. Durante la transcripción, la RdRp produce una hebra de ARNm monocistrónico de cada segmento del genoma.

Virus ARN monocatenario retrotranscrito

El sexto grupo de Baltimore contiene virus que tienen un genoma de ARN monocatenario retrotranscrito (de sentido positivo) que tiene un ADN intermedio durante su ciclo de replicación. Los virus ARN monocatenario retrotranscrito se transcriben de la misma manera que los virus de ADN, pero sus genomas lineales primero se convierten en una forma de ADN bicatenario mediante un proceso llamado transcripción inversa. La enzima transcriptasa inversa viral sintetiza una hebra de ADN a partir de la hebra de ARN monocatenario retrotranscrito, y la hebra de ARN se degrada y se reemplaza por una hebra de ADN para crear un genoma de ADN bicatenario. Luego, el genoma se integra en el ADN de la célula huésped, donde ahora se denomina provirus. La ARN polimerasa II de la célula huésped luego transcribe el ARN en el núcleo del ADN provírico. Parte de este ARN puede convertirse en ARNm, mientras que otras cadenas se convertirán en copias del genoma viral para su replicación.

Mutación

Los virus de ARN experimentan una alta tasa de mutaciones genéticas que varían de  a  porque las polimerasas ARN polimerasa dependiente de ARN o transcriptasa inversa que portan son propensas a cometer errores en la replicación, ya que generalmente estos virus no usan ADN polimerasas para reparar los errores, salvo los virus de ARN retrotranscrito. Los virus de ARN son el segundo grupo biológico que muta más rápidamente, solo después de los viroides y virusoides que mutan diez más rápido que los virus de ARN con una tasa de , pues estos últimos se replican a través de ribozimas y no usan polimerasas. Las mutaciones en los virus de ARN a menudo están influenciadas por factores del hospedero, como las adenosina desaminasas dependientes de ARNdc, que editan los genomas virales cambiando las adenosinas por inosinas. Las mutaciones en genes que son esenciales para la replicación conducen a un número reducido de progenie, por lo que los genomas virales generalmente contienen secuencias que están altamente conservadas con el tiempo con relativamente pocas mutaciones.

Muchos virus de ARN experimentan una alta tasa severa de recombinación genética, aunque las tasas de recombinación varían significativamente, con tasas más bajas en los virus ARN monocatenario negativo y virus ARN monocatenario retrotranscrito, en cambio son mayores en los virus ARN bicatenario y ARN monocatenario positivo. Hay dos tipos de recombinación: recombinación por elección de copia y reordenamiento. La recombinación con opción de copia se produce cuando la polimerasa cambia las plantillas durante la síntesis sin liberar la cadena de ARN recién creada anterior, que genera un genoma de ascendencia mixta. El reordenamiento, que está restringido a virus con genomas segmentados, tiene segmentos de diferentes genomas empaquetados en un solo virión, o partícula de virus, que también produce una progenie híbrida.

Para el reordenamiento, algunos virus de ARN segmentados empaquetan sus genomas en múltiples viriones, lo que produce genomas que son mezclas aleatorias de padres, mientras que para aquellos que están empaquetados en un solo virión, típicamente se intercambian segmentos individuales. Ambas formas de recombinación solo pueden ocurrir si más de un virus está presente en una célula, y cuantos más alelos estén presentes, es más probable que ocurra la recombinación. Una diferencia clave entre la recombinación de elección de copia y el reordenamiento es que la recombinación de elección de copia puede ocurrir en cualquier parte de un genoma, mientras que el reordenamiento intercambia segmentos completamente replicados. Por lo tanto, la recombinación por elección de copia puede producir proteínas virales no funcionales, mientras que el reordenamiento no puede.

La tasa de mutación de un virus está asociada con la tasa de recombinaciones genéticas. Las tasas de mutación más altas aumentan tanto el número de mutaciones ventajosas como las desventajosas, mientras que las tasas de recombinación más altas permiten separar las mutaciones beneficiosas de las nocivas. Por lo tanto, las tasas más altas de mutaciones y recombinaciones, hasta cierto punto, mejoran la capacidad de adaptación de los virus. Ejemplos notables de esto incluyen reordenamientos que permiten la transmisión entre especies de influenzavirus o coronavirus, que han dado lugar a numerosas pandemias, así como la aparición de cepas resistentes a los medicamentos a través de mutaciones que se reagruparon.

Origen y evolución

El Comité Internacional de Taxonomía de Virus (ICTV) clasifica a todos los virus de ARN y los retrotranscritos, incluyendo los virus ADN bicatenario retrotranscrito en el dominio Riboviria ya que estos se caracterizan por tener una ARN polimerasa dependiente de ARN (RdRP) o una transcriptasa inversa consideradas las polimerasas más primitivas existentes. Se divide en dos reinos Orthornavirae que incluye la mayoría de los virus de ARN, salvo algunos poco investigados y Pararnavirae que incluye los virus retrotranscritos, incluyendo los de ADN.

Se ha sugerido que los virus de ARN descienden de replicones de ARN primordiales que codificaban una ARN polimerasa dependiente de ARN (RdRP), anteriores al último antepasado común universal (LUCA) y que los eucariovirus de ARN descienden de virus de ARN procariotas en diferentes linajes. Los virus de ARN tienen una gran importancia evolutiva, ya que se ha sugerido que junto con los virusoides (Ribozyviria) y viroides son reliquias del antiguo mundo de ARN, puesto que su replicación se basa únicamente en el ARN (sin pasar por un extremo o secuencia de ADN, una característica ausente en las células) y que sus precedieron a los retroelementos de la vida celular (intrones y retrotransposones). El ancestro de los virus de ARN probablemente fue un replicón precelular de ARN similar a los mitovirus o endornavirus (sin capside) que codificaba una RdRP. Este replicón al fusionarse con la RdRP y proteínas de dominio palma, TNF, Pro-PD, CBM, nucleoplasminas y una JRC-MCP horizontal llevó a la formación de los viriones de los virus de ARN. De acuerdo con estudios recientes el filo basal de los virus de ARN es Taraviricota descubierto por metagenómica los cuales serían similares a los mitovirus o endornavirus (sin cápsides) y que infectarían a procariotas con pared celular deficiente y mitocondrías eucariotas. También se ha sugerido que los retroelementos de la vida celular intrones y retrotransposones se derivarían de un antepasado compartido con el filo Lenarviricota. Según estos estudios los tipos de genomas en los virus de ARN se fueron cambiando independientemente aunque es probable que los primeros hayan sido de ARN monocatenario positivo. Los virus de ARN eucarióticos pudieron llegar a estos por medio de las proteobacterias y las arqueas en el momento que sucedió la endosimbiosis seriada que involucró a una arquea y una proteobacteria las cuales darían origen a los eucariotas hace más de 2500 millones de años. Estos virus tuvieron una gran diversificación que representan una parte importante del viroma eucariota.

Según el ICTV y otros estudios los virus de ARN se dividirían en los siguientes filos:

 Reino Orthornavirae
 Filo Lenarviricota (ARN monocatenario positivo)
 Filo Duplornaviricota (ARN bicatenario)
 Filo Pisuviricota (ARN monocatenario positivo y ARN bicatenario)
 Filo Negarnaviricota (ARN monocatenario negativo)
 Filo Kitrinoviricota (ARN monocatenario positivo)
 Filo Taraviricota (ARN monocatenario positivo y ARN bicatenario)
 Filo Arctoviricota (ARN monocatenario negativo)
 Filo Paraxenoviricota (ARN monocatenario positivo)
 Filo Pomiviricota (ARN monocatenario positivo)
 Filo Wamoviricota (ARN monocatenario positivo)

Se ha sugerido que el filo Duplornaviricota debe ser dividido en tres filos separados. Los filos Taraviricota, Arctoviricota, Pomiviricota, Paraxenoviricota y Wamoviricota fueron descubiertos mediante muestras metagenómicas en los océanos y probablemente solo infecten microorganismos marinos.

Simple but Brilliant: How Small Adjustments Can Have Powerful Impacts on ED Operations
December 26, 2018 d2i Editorial Team
dotshock/123RF
Recent research shows a high number of patient-handoff-related errors, especially when it comes to examinations and vital-sign communication.
Advanced analytics tools enable interdepartmental performance-improvement conversations.
When it comes to improving emergency department operations, even small, seemingly simple operational changes — like staggering arrival of attending physicians and smoothing out surgical flow — can lead to significant improvements.
These types of changes can reduce ED crowding, improve patient handoff and its related errors, and lead to improved patient flow and safety across all hospital departments.
Advanced performance analytics can help you target the areas most ripe for improvement and how best to change the process. d2i's solutions can help organizations understand the potential impact of adjustments and achieve measurable process improvement.
Staggering ED Physician Shifts
According to a study conducted at Seattle Children's Hospital, one way to improve patient flow is to overlap the shifts of attending ED physicians. The change was made after earlier research showed a high margin for error associated with ED patient handoff, especially in areas like vital-sign communication. One study reported errors in one in seven ED handoffs, and another reported 58 percent handoff examination errors and omissions.
When Seattle Children's Hospital ER started overlapping physician shifts in a so-called "waterfall" pattern instead of handing off multiple patients to an incoming attending physician, patient care prioritization shifted. The new model allowed for:
Reduced opportunities for patient harm
Reduced workloads and accompanying stress
25 percent fewer patient handoffs
Increased opportunities for physician collaboration
Decreased delays in patient care
Integrating All Departments
Another way to help optimize patient flow is to integrate all departments, which improves care quality, clinical outcomes, and patient satisfaction, and reduces safety risk. Clinical teams at Envision Physician Services, a large national HCO, improved patient throughput by approaching it as a whole-hospital issue, not just an ED problem. This approach demonstrated that when all departments align their goals, an HCO can reduce operational bottlenecks. Departmental integration, in turn, also creates more visibility. When the whole system is integrated, operational performance reviews are collaborative and constructive, which can lead to high impact actions.
Operations Research Strategy
HCOs don't need a lot of money to make small adjustments that go a long way. Eugene Litvak, a professor at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and president of the Institute for Healthcare Optimization, recently suggested that Ontario hospitals could reduce overcrowding and decrease mortality and infection rates just in time for the flu season by adopting an operations research strategy. At its core, this approach uses scientific methods to evaluate demand and try to make hospital capacity meet it by:
Spreading elective surgeries throughout the week, thus smoothing out surgical flow and reducing surgery mortality rate
Turning around hospital beds faster due to earlier discharges
Separating patients by level of care (one way to do this is adhering to protocol for using stepdown beds)
Shared Metrics for Shared Goals
Advanced analytics like d2i's Performance Analytic Application can be instrumental in all of these adjustments and more. Analytics that enable interdepartmental conversations with shared metrics and shared goals can help advance performance improvement initiatives.
d2i can take data from a wide range of sources to help identify opportunities for improvement and then continuously reinforce behaviors that support new processes, providing a holistic, accessible, and trusted view of all related data.

"Reason has always existed, but not always in a reasonable form."
"Tinted glass has always existed, but not always in a reasonable form."
"The tinting of all the dead airmen weighs like a nightmare upon my sunglasses."
- apart with on burst from any LW plane.
The Yak 1 & 3 are more fragile , I think the & should be tougher & the Yak 9 was definately more rugged & it was derived from the 7 which was built stronger to be a trainer.
Yakety yak yak till the yak comes bak to attak.
Thank goodness for the patch, I waiteth.
No, the YAK ruled the skies and we all know it was THE aircraft of the war..
AFAIK patch is going to make FB more similar to IL2 in FMs.Some of you will hate your VVS UFOs soon.
Isn't Yak whiner an oxy-moron?
Let's face it, if you can't win in a Yak then it's not the planes, it's the pilot.
It never fails, if you buy an expensive pair of tinted glasses some fat head airmen is bound to try them and bend them to a not always reasonable form, which will weigh on your mind like a nightmare.
- in FMs.Some of you will hate your VVS UFOs soon.
Enough to put any VVS down.If you fully accept today`s VVS FM you can`t know much about them either.
What do you think is so far off on the Yak3? It goes 20 km/h faster than it should. Do you have anything else?
After installing v1.1 you`ll get the idea Buzz.
Why don't you tell me. You seem to know.
Yep, the only thing I never liked about them is the dark gunsight that keeps me from seeing the landing strip!!!
To hide from Yak and P~51 pilots, Fw190 pilots crouched down in their seats, totally ruining their cockpit view.
- Isn't Yak whiner an oxy-moron?
I believe a yak whiner is an OX moron.
- not the planes, it's the pilot.
sniffle, sniffle. i can't help it if i'm not a natural born pilot like an eagle or a hawk, or, or like a Pig !??!!
Wait a minute the Yak SHOULD be impossible to see out of now that Pigs Do Fly!
- which will weigh on your mind like a nightmare.
Patch your tongue, kyrule2, YakWhiners are Supposed to be fun. Anyways, except Yak3, Yaks were mediocre dogfighters, but good escorts, and there were always so many of them, but then bully Yakovlev had better political connections than, say, shy Lavochkin.
Are you kidding? I thought Yak was one of the most manouvarable planes.. also one of the lightest and most fragile plane.. and that is the way it is in FB:. certainly I hope not that Patch makes this über plane ever better!
- Thank goodness for the patch, I waiteth.
Ok is this a serious thread? I mean Yak whining lol you have got to be kidding me. In case you guys didn't know the Yak 3 has an anti-inertial drive that was fitted by Captain. Kirk himself..that is after Scotty got through configuring the force shield.
With Yak~9K I just came up from beneath a He~111, sliced off a wing with one shot from 45mm cannon. That was nice.
Had er "difficulties" with Me~323 though.
Smoked em. Coming up from below, one shell of 45mm smacked off wing of Pe~8. Took me a couple of passes to hit it once though. I am a poor pilot, and a worse shot.
I'm sorry I got serious about this thread (smashes forehead on desk). It won't happen again. But I do disagree about Yaks being mediocre dogfighters. I have heard some very glowing remarks from pilots who flew them, including US pilots. Remember in FB down low we are in the Yak's domain.
No perspiration kyrule. All the Fw threads in Oleg's Recovery Room has given everybody diaper rash.
I think Yak was basically "average." Good at everything, yet specializing at nothing. But that, like a Sherman tank, is the kinda stuff that wins WARs. Its great numbers made it effective too, like the Sherman tank. And the Russians learned not to let their advantage in numbers get bombed on the ground like in 1941. Also, psychology too:: By early 1943, the Germans in Russia were scared, Soviet troops wore grins on there faces no matter the difficulties ahead. Both Knew what was going to happen.
- low we are in the Yak's domain.
Whats that Soviet expression ? Best is the enemy of good enough ?
Agree totally. an important advantage of the Yak over the Meser was what I like to call the SQUISHY SEAT FACTOR, or SSF. The SSF takes into acount the remarkable drop in the ability to perform even the simplest of tasks after after having the shioott scared out of you. The yak is slearly superior to the late model 109s in Squishy Seat Factor Ranking (SSFR).
for the love of gawd LMFAO!!
actualy i read in a aviation magazine making a hystorycal article that germany had forbitten theire polits to engage Yak-3 and La-5 and 7 under 2500 meters altitude.....i think this says alot.
the mortality of soviet pilots was highest in Hurricanes, and then in Yaks. Then in I16, LaGGs, P39, La.
The Yaks were of low quality and light planes with poor pilot protection and weak construction. The only thing they could was to turn.
The famous yak3 was limited in dive to 650kph due to tearing off the wing cover. Do you think that plane is the best low alt fighter? Smthing like faster zero. Sure, dont start turn fight with it!
I don't know which one was really the best fighter but it may be interresting to remember that after the war (in 1966, I think), Gerhard Barkhorn (301 kills, second highest scoring pilot in history) told a british magazine that the Yak-9 was the best soviet fighter and added that he considered it as "one of the best in the world" by 1944 (BTW, while this is not significant (great fighter pilots were killed by SBs or Bleinheims...), we can remark that some of Germany's best fighter pilots, like Hubertus von Bonin or Anton Hafner were killed in combat with Yak-9s).
- with Yak~15/17 jets. I dunno.
In fact, after the war Yak did produce the Yak-9P (better armed Yak-9U) and small series of the Yak-3M-107 which was a fantastic fighter which was not largely distributed since it was no longer needed (the war was over and it was felt that the VVS didn't need anymore a high number of prop fighter types).
In fact, Yakovlev's initial success with jet fighter was linked to Stalin's trust in him, but the Mig-9 soon proved to be a much better plane than the Yak-15/17 and the Su-9 (not produced because it was too externally similar to the Me-262) was also considered better by the test pilots who flew both.
In fact, Yak didn't have success with fighters after that until the Yak-25 all-weather interceptor (and after that with the little produced Yak-38 SVTOL which while not as bad as some said it was, was not a true fighter but could rather compete with advanced training and light attack planes like the Hawk or the Alpha Jet).
I remember one American pilot saying that they had a Yak-9 at their base and everyone would always sign up to fly it. He said in his opinion it was the best fighter of the war. I know this is just one person's opinon but I think it does say something about the Yak. I agree that construction was probably somewhat poor, and that it one of the reason that it is not among my favorite planes of all time. Still it did prove rugged in very harsh conditions, and I though it was known that Yak construction quality was better than Lavochkin's. I think the heavier Yak mortality rate was effected somewhat by the circumstances around it's service, as it entered the war earlier and in greater numbers than planes like P-39 and La's. Pilots who flew the Yaks seemed to like them alot, the same can't be said for Laggs. But then again who knows? Maybe I am wrong.
Oh, and Jurinko, yes I do think the Yak was one of the best fighters down low. It had great speed, climb, visibility, and maneuverability. Sure it couldn't dive at excessive speeds, but when you are fighting at low altitudes how much is this a factor? Again the Yak-3's combat record speaks for itself, and the Free French thought they were pretty damn good also.
Well.. here is what I have learned.. To my opinion Yaks are the best dogfighters in the game.. A real T&B-Bird.. Also I have learned to avoid Turn fighting with these beasts.. I also believe that Yaks are bit too strong at the moment, meaning that usually it takes over 3 MK108 hits to finish it off..
-This is a problem with the 108 not the Yak I beleieve.
I'm not sure this is specific to the Yak either & I think the patch will improve this, we'll see. ( oh I'm a Butcherbird fan too!
See, that's the spirit !
Jurinko, One of the things taht makes the Yaks interesting is their excellant service record IN SPITE OF Construction problems (some plants made better planes than others) & the excellance of the design is proven by the fact that it was successfull EVEN THOUGH the limited supply of duraluminum forced them to be built from second rate materials.
If the soviets would have had an engine comparable to the Daimler Benz series the Yaks would have been even better. Compared to Brit & Geman engines the Soviet designers had very little to work with & it seems the Russian's engines added very little horsepower during the course of the war.
The Yak is as worthy of praise as any other fighter of the era in my humble yet inconsequential opinion.
FB doesn't replicate manufacturing faults in individual airframes.
When reading about the Yaks it's interesting to note how often production machines were tested to see if they matched prototype recorded performance figures. It's a remeinder that just because one Mustang rechhed 440mph doesn't necessarilly mean they all did.
I feel sorry for those La boys, they're just insecure 'c asue Yaks have such big guns.
Its not that Yaks are too strong...is that most of the armament they go up against is too weak at the moment in FB.

Marek Łbik (* 30. Januar 1958 in Posen) ist ein ehemaliger polnischer Kanute.

Erfolge
Marek Łbik gab sein Olympiadebüt 1980 in Moskau, als er im Einer-Canadier über 500 und über 1000 Meter an den Start ging. Nach einem dritten Platz im Vorlauf zog er über 500 Meter direkt ins Finale ein, in dem er den fünften Platz belegte. Auf der 1000-Meter-Distanz kam er im Vorlauf nicht über den fünften und im Halbfinale nicht über den vierten Platz hinaus, woraufhin er ausschied. Bei den Olympischen Spielen 1988 in Seoul nahm er im Zweier-Canadier mit Marek Dopierała an zwei Wettbewerben teil. Auf der 500-Meter-Strecke erreichten sie nach einem Sieg im Vorlauf und Rang zwei im Halbfinale den Endlauf. In 1:43,61 Minuten überquerten sie hinter den siegreichen Victor Reneischi und Nicolae Juravschi aus der Sowjetunion als Zweite die Ziellinie und gewannen damit die Silbermedaille. Nach einem zweiten Platz im Vorlauf und einem Sieg im Halbfinale qualifizierten sie sich über 1000 Meter ebenfalls für das Finale, in dem sie als Dritte mit Bronze eine weitere Medaille gewannen. Sie erreichten in 3:54,33 Minuten das Ziel, hinter Reneischi und Juravschi sowie Olaf Heukrodt und Ingo Spelly.

Bereits 1979 sicherte sich Łbik in Duisburg bei den Weltmeisterschaften seine erste Medaille, als er mit Piotr Pawlowski im Zweier-Canadier über 500 Meter die Bronzemedaille gewann. Mit Marek Dopierała gewann Łbik bei den Weltmeisterschaften 1985 in Mechelen die Silbermedaille über 500 Meter und die Bronzemedaille über 1000 Meter. 1986 wurden sie in Montreal über 10.000 Meter erstmals Weltmeister, während sie auf der 1000-Meter-Strecke den zweiten Rang belegten. Dieses Resultat über 1000 Meter wiederholten sie 1987 in Duisburg und sicherten sich über 500 Meter ihren zweiten gemeinsamen Titel. 1989 wurde Łbik mit Tomasz Goliasz in Plowdiw in dieser Disziplin Zweiter. Im Einer- und Zweier-Canadier gewann Łbik auf verschiedenen Distanzen insgesamt 24 Mal polnische Landesmeistertitel. 1991 beendete er seine Karriere, nachdem ihn Nationaltrainer Jerzy Opara nicht mehr in den Mannschaftsplanungen berücksichtigt hatte.

1987 wurden Marek Łbik und Marek Dopierała zu Polens Sportler des Jahres gewählt. Łbik ist Präsident seines Heimatvereins KS Warta Posen, außerdem ist er als Funktionär beim polnischen Kanuverband und beim Polski Komitet Olimpijski tätig. Für seine Verdienste um den Kanusport erhielt er das Ritterkreuz des Ordens Polonia Restituta.

10 Mind-Blowing YouTube Statistics
By fusion.socialJuly 1, 2019advertising, Brand marketing, Utah, Utah SEO
Social media marketing companies are performing crazy amounts of research in order to better utilize the different online platforms. In the past research we have conducted, we have found ridiculous statistics! In fact, some of the information we recently looked up about YouTube is fascinating. So much so that we thought it'd be fun to show everyone some of the numbers we came across that will blow you away! Take. A. Look.
Five Stats on YouTube's Popularity
The first stats we will share only emphasize how ridiculously popular YouTube is.
1.9 billion people — The number of individuals on YouTube each month.
3.25 billion hours — The number of hours watched each month.
#2 — YouTube is the second most visited website in the world.
300 hours per minute — The total number of hours uploaded to YouTube each minute.
5 billion views — The number of videos watched every day (Another source, Internet Live Stats' reports that 79,331 videos are watched every second).
There are social media marketing companies that focus on all sorts of platforms, but with these kinds of numbers, it would not be a stretch for marketing companies to focus solely on YouTube. Interestingly, a side-note statistic (that we aren't counting on this list), of those 1.9 billion individuals, over 80 percent of the viewers come from outside of the United States of America.
Three Financial Figures
As our social media marketing company rolls out a couple of the dollar figures, just keep in mind that the first video ever uploaded to YouTube was on April 23, 2005. You will then see how quick YouTube was recognized as a perennial online website and how much it has blown up since — it's WILD.
$1.6 billion — The amount Google paid to buy YouTube a little over a year after its inception.
$160 billion — Morgan Stanley's estimated net value of YouTube by 2019.
From these numbers, we see that Goole recognized that YouTube was already a billion-dollar company and has made it one of the world's most profitable companies. YouTube has increased its value on average by about $10 billion each year since 2005. Just to put this into perspective, today, YouTube is worth about the same as Disney.
Within YouTube's empire, individuals also have the ability to make big money. Here's our last financial stat:
$20-50 million — The estimated net worth of one YouTuber, PewDiePie.
It may not seem like much compared to the figures in the billions, but remember that this is just one guy in his twenties making videos.
Two Stats: Most Subscribers and Most Views
PewDiePie, or Felix Kjellberg (Swedish), fluctuates between having the most subscribers or somewhere close to it. Right now, he does not have the most subscribers on YouTube. While he may not be #1 currently, his main competitor is a huge corporation, not just some guy.
103 million — The number of subscribers T-Series has, the highest of any YouTube channel.
The most popular channel on YouTube right now is the Indian Music Label & Move Studio, T-Series. While they currently have the most subscribers on YouTube, they still do not come close to having the most views for one video.
6.2 billion — The number of times Luis Fonsi's Despacito Ft. Daddy Yankee has been viewed.
Despacito's next closest competitor isn't even close (Ed Sharon's Shape of You has 4.2 billion), but of the top-10 most viewed videos, all surpass at least 2.5 billion view counts and 9 of them are music videos (the only none music video is a random Russian-animated video, maybe for kids?).
As the stats cross between dollar amounts, time markers, ridiculous numbers in the billions, and some of the highest rankings, YouTube provides some of the most compelling stats. Social media marketing companies continue to help everyday companies with their deep knowledge and marketing abilities.

Baseball Musings has their 2008 Brewers offensive predictions up. They predict the team will score 4.97 runs per game, up slightly from the 4.94 runs per game the team scored last season with their best production at 5.22 runs per game and their worst at 4.52 runs per game. They used their Lineup Analysis and Marcels Predictions to come up with the numbers.
For reference, the league average for runs per game in the NL last year was 4.71. The Brewers averaged the most runs per game in the NL Central and the Reds were the only other above average offense in the division with a 4.83 runs per game average. The Cubs averaged 4.64, the Cardinals averaged 4.48, the Pirates averaged 4.47 and the Astros averaged 4.46. Watch for the rest of the NL Central predictions in the coming weeks at Baseball Musings.
A hat tip to Brewer blog In-Between Hops for pointing me to the Baseball Musings' predictions this morning.

Alfa Romeo has unwrapped its stunning Giulietta at the Geneva Motor Show this afternoon, a model that introduces owner Fiat's new "Compact" architecture platform.
The new underpinnings are said to satisfy even the most demanding customers wants for road-holding, safety and agility.
To be offered in five different guises, Giulietta will include two top-spec Quadrifoglio Verde variants (fitted with a 175kW petrol engine), two mid-level Distinctive versions (offering a 127kW turbo-diesel engine), and an entry-level Distinctive version (fitted with a 126kW turbo-petrol engine) will also be made available.
The new five-door hatch goes on sale in Europe this May. It is not yet known if the Giulietta will make it to Australia, though if the looks are anything to go by, we've certainly got our fingers crossed.


In autumn 2014 myself and three others walked over the Suorva dam and into Sarek National Park. We wanted to see Rapadalen in all the warm Autumn colors and we hoped to see some of the wild animals. The bus and the nearby cabins had closed down for the season and we didn't see more than three other human beings during the walk. We had a lot of colourful leaves and cold mornings and in the end of the trip we even had snow covering the ground. We had two tents with us (a 1 man and 3 man tent). In the evening we usually stayed in the big one, playing cards, listening to music and making some food together. We only did one peak and it was Låddebakte. From the top you could see a long way and it's really astonishing.
Sarek National Park is a national park in the Lapland province, northern Sweden. It borders two other national parks: Stora Sjöfallet and Padjelanta. Sarek is popular with hikers and mountaineers but is not appropriate for beginners.
The national park is roughly circular with an average diameter of about 50 kilometres (31.07 mi). It has no marked trails, no accommodations, and only two bridges aside from those in the vicinity of its borders.
The delta of the Rapa River is considered one of Europe's prettiest, and the summit of mount Skierffe (sv) offers an overlook of this ice-covered glacial trough valley.
In the end we hired a car in Kiruna and drove to Suorva, walked over the dam and into Sarek. The boats and buses ended there season during our walk and made it hard for us to figure out a good plan overall so we came up with a new plan, hired a car and drove back and forth to Kiruna.
When the huts is open and the bus goes as plan you take the train to Gällivare and then the bus towards Ritsem.
You have to sleep in a tent and cook your meals on a petrol stove or similar. It could be windy and there is only a handful of shelters around. Now how to use your gear and practice pitching you're tent in bad weather.

A No Passing Zone at a horizontal or vertical curve is warranted where the sight distance as defined in Section 3B-5 of the Ohio Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (OMUTCD) is less that the minimum necessary for safe passing at the prevailing speed of traffic.
No Passing Zones may be marked at rural and urban intersections where an engineering judgement so dictates. The decision as to whether or not a No Passing Zone should be marked is a matter of discretionary engineering judgment. There is explicitly no requirement under the OMUTCD that No Passing Zones shall be marked at intersections, notwithstanding the provisions of any other section of the OMUTCD.

"Sometimes he's way too greedy" – Ex-Spurs striker raises issue with current fan favourite
By Steve Jennings -
Former Tottenham striker Darren Bent has suggested Son Heung-min sometimes lets himself down with his greediness on the ball.
Son has been Spurs' standout player during a difficult week for the South Korean and the team as a whole. After providing the assist for Dele Alli's opener against Everton, Son was involved in the incident that saw Andre Gomes break his ankle.
He recovered with two goals against Red Star in the Champions League before scoring again in the draw with Sheffield United on Saturday.
However, Bent has taken issue with one aspect of Son's game that could do with some work. Praising Danny Rose's performance in the 4-0 win over Red Star, Bent claimed Rose could be frustrated by Son's preference to shoot rather than produce combinations down the left.
Rose put in his best attacking performance of the season against Belgrade, setting up Son's second goal of the night. But Bent believes Son's greediness did not help Rose.
"I thought he (Rose) was brilliant, I thought he was tremendous (against Red Star)," Bent told Football Insider.
"To be fair to him, he looked good but if I was Danny Rose, at times he must be so frustrated to play with Heung-min Son on your side because the amount of times he does a marauding overlap where he powers and all he needs is a little pass to the side, Son will shoot.
"I think that's one area where he lets him down is sometimes he's way too greedy."
It's true that Son is more of a forward than a winger these days, so it's not a surprise that he often cuts inside and goes for goal. What's more, Mauricio Pochettino is probably instructing him to get into central areas and support Harry Kane.
What do you think of Bent's opinion? Let us know in the comments section below.

Paul November 11, 2019 at 7:05 pm
Very good point, Son by nature plays down the middle and that could be habitual. I take issue with the setup and while wingbacks are suppose to arrive late and occasionally overlap it is a staple of the Spurs offense on both sides. Now, what you have are 2 guys occuping the same place that resutls in tap tap football instead of the old one touch, slip and cross. What you have are theee inverted wingers who cannot cross the ball with there off foot. That is rampant throughout football, so I feel Rose's pain who has a natural left foot while Son drible into the box and Kane running around looking for a spot. When was the last time Kane scored a header or any goal from a cross. Trent Alexander and Robertson are average defenders who look like world beaters going foward. When they are pinned back they are both prone to errors because they are not required to play steel defense but merely wingbacks with pace to go forward and whip the ball over. That was once reserved for the real wingers with pace and guile, get to the bye line and drop it in the box. Those days are gone. Thanks to Messi and Ronaldo.
Simon November 11, 2019 at 8:54 pm
Ridiculous! Son passes to Bent when he has space to run multiple times a game. Sure, maybe he won't make the right pass every time, but that's in the nature of a striker. We were criticizing Son for not being aggressive enough just a couple of years ago. Darren must be drinking some wack stuff to talk like this.
Paul November 12, 2019 at 12:05 am
No, no you are wrong, it is not a criticism, it an observation. Son is playing as an inverted winger which is where the first problem begins and he does not cross the ball from outside the box from either wings. You must be able to make a point without feeling slighted. Darren is correct. He dribbles alot, so if by design the manager is asking the wingbacks to go forward and Rose runs 30yds for the overlap and Son dip his shoulders, skip over it twice and break inside towards the box. Just let that image sink in for a minute. You can complete my post, am done.
thembelihle Dlamini November 12, 2019 at 6:58 am
Bent's observation is spot on and I have been saying the same to my friends for quite sometime. Son is greedy and if he was not, Spurs would have scored more goals this term. It's like he thinks he is the only one entitled to scoring goals. Now that Bent has brought this up, check the number of times wherein he has an option to pick up a fellow striker but delays in order to score himself. Please just note this. If Son can correct this, he can be the ultimate player and Spurs can benefit from his array of skills.
Michael Penn November 12, 2019 at 6:47 pm

Photo by Megan Pacer/Peninsula Clarion Kristie Sellers, director of behavioral health at Central Peninsula Hospital, addresses a crowd of around 170 community members during a town hall meeting to go over issues with area heroin abuse Thursday, May 19, 2016 at the Challenger Learning Center of Alaska in Kenai, Alaska.
Town hall examines heroin issue
by Megan Pacer
Saturday, May 21, 2016 10:32pm
Everyone crammed into a room at the Challenger Learning Center of Alaska on Thursday agreed that heroin abuse is a real, growing problem on the Kenai Peninsula. What they still have to figure out is how to beat it.
Held by the Change 4 the Kenai Coalition, the town hall called Heroin Epidemic on the Kenai drew about 170 concerned community members to the center, leaving several standing against the walls throughout the two-hour meeting. Led by Coalition Coordinator Shari Conner, it served as an introduction to the topic and a probing meeting to uncover what residents know and feel about the issue with heroin in the area.
Attendees, who ranged from concerned residents and coalition volunteers to representatives of local government and law, first participated in a survey, the results of which were displayed for all to see. Overwhelmingly, those at the town hall favored treatment over incarceration for heroin users, with 97 percent answering that they preferred the former, and only 3 percent saying they preferred the latter. When polled to see how many people at the meeting knew someone who uses heroin, 76 percent answered that they do.
"I think when we have those numbers of people that … know people that are using in one room, that's when you see that there's obviously a problem in our community," Conner said.
The coalition of about 64 members and agencies began doing research about a year and a half ago, Conner said.
By hosting two town hall meetings, the group hopes to both rally concerned residents who can commit to helping and brainstorm solutions to the abuse problem that can be implemented at the community level.
"While we're (not likely) to do anything about the supply, of keeping heroin out of our community and out of our state and out of our nation, we are able to do something about the demand," Conner said. "If we have less demand for heroin that means we have less users."
The coalition presented several panelists Thursday from the criminal justice, family services and health care sectors who each spoke to how heroin abuse is addressed in their field. Ruben Foster, probation supervisor for the Kenai Probation Office, presented a timeline of how heroin use has risen while abuse of other drugs has diminished over the years.
Even though the spike in heroin abuse is alarming, Foster cautioned that it is often seen accompanied by multiple other drugs, making the danger to users even greater.
"The thing about heroin use is a lot of time what we find — and I've been looking at this for 17 years — is it's not just heroin," he said. "It's almost always heroin and meth, and weed, or, you know, meth is always for some reason in there."
Foster and other panelists emphasized that the corrections sector often sees drug users at their worst, and that while the issue doesn't originate in corrections, it is often up to people in that field to deal with the fall out and try to help people get back on the straight and narrow.
"I've watched people die. I've watched moms not be moms, I've watched dads not be dads," Foster said. "I've watched kids go to OCS because the drug just doesn't care. … I'm encouraged because I see a lot of people … that we've had the opportunity to come across their path at one point or another, but I also see successes in here, and we don't often get to see that."
Kathy Calloway of the Office of Childrens Services detailed how heroin abuse affects the family structure and weighs on both children who are taken out of homes and the parents who are no longer fit to cope with raising them.
Kristie Sellers, director of behavioral health at Central Peninsula Hospital, emphasized the importance of those who are in recovery from drug abuse living their lives openly and setting a good example for those who would like to follow in their footsteps.
Near the end of the meeting, attendees were encouraged to brainstorm solutions until they come back together to hash them out. The Change 4 the Kenai coalition also meets at 10 a.m. the third Friday of each month.
"I hope that we have something that we can do as a community that can help us address the problem and understand that corrections can't fix the problem," Foster said. "It's always been a community problem. It's never been a corrections problem, but what we can do is work with the community to try to help the problem."
The next coalition town hall will be held at 6 p.m. Thursday at the center. Find more information at change4kenai.org.

Allah, Kaaba aur Bandacontains feelings and expressions created during the visit of holy places in Mecca & Medina during Hajj. The Hajj pilgrimage rites performance and visits of various Holy sanctuaries is a wonderful experience. Whatever he felt in his heart and mind, he tried to capture those precious moments and images in black and white. You may notice that the writer of this book has somewhat looks de-tracked but this is not the case. This is his emotional absorption with the situation, place and the moment that he forgot himself OR his writing is overfilled with love, passion devotion and commitment. All the narratives in this book is talk of the heart, talk of inner of the man. The talk of the feelings bursting out of his heart. These are the sobbing, groaning, crying and firehouse of sentiments which can never cool down. The book has been reviewed by eminent writers and scholars including Mr. Majeed Nazami, Mr. Mustansar Hussain Tarar, Mr. Hassan Nisar, Mr. Atta ul Haq Qasmi, Maulana Tariq Jameel, Mufti Rafi Ahmed Usmani, Dr. Anwar Sadeed and others.

Тау́ї білогорлий (Melozone albicollis) — вид горобцеподібних птахів родини Passerellidae. Ендемік Мексики.

Опис
Довжина птаха становить 19 см. Забарвлення переважно тьмяно-коричневе, нижня частина тіла білувата. Вид вирізняється забарвленням шиї і горла: центральна частина є білою, а з боків розташовані рудувато-охристі плями.

Підвиди
Виділяють два підвиди:
 M. a. marshalli (Parkes, 1974) — штат Пуебла;
 M. a. albicollis (Sclater, PL, 1858) — штати Герреро і Оахака.

Поширення і екологія
Білогорлі тауї поширені на півдні Мексики. Вони живуть у високогірних чагарникових заростях і гірських тропічних лісах. Зустрічаються на висоті від 1150 до 2800 м над рівнем моря.

Збереження
МСОП класифікує цей вид як такий, що не потребує особливих заходів зі збереження. За оцінками дослідників, популяція білогорлих тауї становить від 50 до 500 тисяч птахів.

"In the next release of Visual Studio Team System we will be merging the feature sets of the Development Edition and the Database Edition into a single product. The new product – part of Visual Studio Team System codename "Rosario" – will include all of the features in the Development Edition and the Database Edition as well as new capabilities delivering even more value in a single product. This will provide a more complete set of capabilities for building software in today's data-driven environments. Bringing these two feature sets together enables you to take advantage of the core tools for application development as well as the necessary tools for database development, including performance profiling, code analysis, code metrics, code coverage, database refactoring, Schema Compare, Data Compare, and more. As an MSDN subscriber we want you to realize the benefit of this merged feature set now, which is why we are extending this exclusive offer. If you have either the Visual Studio Team System 2008 Development Edition with MSDN Premium subscription or the Visual Studio Team System 2008 Database Edition with MSDN Premium subscription, on October 1, 2008 you will have access to both the Development Edition and Database Edition through MSDN Subscriber Downloads. This change also applies to customers who purchased Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition for Software Developers with MSDN Premium Subscription and Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition for Database Professionals with MSDN Premium Subscription. "
Since the release of Visual Studio Team System in 2005 customers have had to either choose between the Development Edition and the Database Edition, or buy Team Suite to get the value of both of these products (which also gives them Architecture Edition, Test Edition, and Expression Studio). The reality is that most software engineers need the tools found in both of these products. Merging the Development Edition and Database Edition into a single product provides customers with many of the tools they need to build world-class data-driven applications without having to choose between the two, or spend more.
While the merge of these two products is actually happening in the Visual Studio Team System 2010 release – where they will be merged into a single product under the "Development" banner – we are able to "move up" this benefit for customers and offer it now. Simply put, we can offer it now, so we will. This is one of the many benefits of Software Assurance.
Customers who purchased any of the following products with Software Assurance and have a current MSDN Subscription will have access to all of these products beginning October 1, 2008.
Beginning October 1, 2008, downloads available through the MSN Subscriber Downloads page will include both the Development and Database Editions. This will be evident by the "Keys" icon lighting up for the specified products as shown in Figures 1 and 2.

Jan Tomaszewski (Breslavia, Polonia, 9 de enero de 1948) es un exfutbolista polaco que se desempeñaba en la posición de guardameta. Fue el portero titular de la selección nacional de Polonia durante la década de 1970, alcanzando con la biało-czerwoni el tercer lugar en la Copa Mundial de 1974 celebrada en Alemania Occidental, donde fue nombrado mejor arquero del torneo. Con la selección polaca también ganó la medalla de plata en los Juegos Olímpicos de 1976 en Montreal, y fue portero titular en la Copa Mundial de 1978 en Argentina. Después de su retiro, fue comentarista de fútbol y político.

Trayectoria

Creció en Breslavia cuando sus padres fueron expulsados de Vilna después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Durante su etapa como futbolista profesional jugó en varios clubes polacos, entre ellos el Śląsk Wrocław de su ciudad natal, el Legia de Varsovia y el ŁKS Łódź, y en el extranjero jugando para el K Beerschot VAC belga y el Hércules CF de España. Fue internacional con la Selección de fútbol de Polonia en 63 ocasiones. Tras colgar las botas, ejerció brevemente como entrenador del Widzew Łódź en 1989.

Selección nacional

Tomaszewski es especialmente recordado por su actuación en el partido entre  e  en el estadio de Wembley, Londres, durante la clasificación para la Copa Mundial de 1974 de Alemania Occidental, y en donde Inglaterra necesitaba ganar. Tomaszewski fue catalogado como "un payaso" por Brian Clough antes del enfrentamiento (años después ambos mantendrían una larga amistad), pero con su actuación durante el encuentro frenó todos los ataques del combinado británico; el único gol que logró Inglaterra fue mediante el cobro de un penalti, realizado por Allan Clarke. Anteriormente, Jan Domarski había anotado para los polacos. Polonia manejó el partido 1-1 y calificaron a las finales en Alemania Occidental a expensas de Inglaterra.

If you are looking to apply for a Green card or Permanent Residence in the United States, immigration will require you to first get a physical examination. The medical examination must be conducted by a US Civil Surgeon, which is a licensed physician approved by USCIS. Having the I-693 medical examination done correctly is critical, since the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services will not process your application if it is done incorrectly.
We have the required form. All you need for your immigration physical is a photo ID, any documentation you might have of prior vaccinations and testing, and a form of payment.
Once the medical exam is completed, the Civil Surgeon will certify the Form I-693 and you will receive the completed form in a sealed envelope to turn in with your application to the immigration department.
Please DO NOT open the the sealed envelope or it will make your documents inadmissible to the USCIS. Our clinic will provide you with a copy of the documents contained in the sealed envelope for your own records. If you are working with an attorney, we will be happy to send the sealed envelope with the forms directly to the attorney if you want us to do it.
to explain our reasons for ordering this or that test or vaccination as we go along with the examination process. If anything is unclear, please make sure to ask. Read the following to be able to better understand the process and possibly save money and aggravation.
The medial exam conducted by our certified Civil Surgeons is valid for one year.
You are required to be immunized completely according to the standard schedule determined by the USCIS. If you have any immunization records, whether American or from your home country, please bring them in. It is best to have them translated, but we can usually figure out even the foreign records and apply all your immunizations towards your INS requirements. Once we know which extra immunizations you need we can give them to you or you can have them done at your primary care doctor's office.
Children under the age of 19 need the most shots, so please make sure you bring all the available records. We don't want to give them more shots than they really need.
If you would like to limit the number of immunizations you get, we can do a blood test to verify your immunity to certain childhood illnesses (so called titer). If you test positive for the disease in question, you do not need a shot. We recommend doing titers for measles, mumps and rubella. If you don't know whether you've had chicken pox, we can test for it as well.
If you have had chicken pox (Varicella), you do not need a shot for it. If you don't know if you have had it, ask your parents whether you did, and at approximately what age. We are allowed to take your word for this disease, but not for others.
The main blood test we do is for syphilis. This is required for all applicants aged 15 and older. If you choose to do titers for childhood illnesses (see above), they are added to the same test and you don't need an extra needle stick. Sometimes we need to add other tests (blood or urine) based on the exam findings.
As of August 1 2016 urine test for gonorrhea is required for all applicants aged 15 and older.
HIV/AIDS is defined by the USCIS as "not an infectious disease of public health significance", so we don't routinely test for it. If you would like to be tested, we can do it for you.
When comparing clinics, make sure to ask how long you may need to wait to get the appointment. We can usually see you and get the forms finished within a week, and in some cases two days is enough. We have the lab and x-ray facilities on premises and do everything needed right away.
The explanation of our prices that follows may be confusing to many. We are providing this information in an effort to be transparent. Pricing depends on several factors and may be different from person to person. There may be different ways of handling a situation. We always make an effort to charge you as little as possible. If something is unclear, please be sure to ask. The charges can also be discussed with the doctor during your exam, at which time a full explanation will be provided, your options will be discussed, and you will have a say on how to complete your workup most efficiently and at the least expense.
Most adults should expect to pay around $480 for everything necessary. It could be a bit more or less depending on what is needed.
The exam itself is $210 for adults and $190 for children under 15. This charge covers all necessary visits and includes all paperwork, including preparation of all the necessary forms in sealed envelopes.
If we have examined you in the past for the same purpose, we will give you a 10% discount on all future immigration exams if you need them. This applies to the exam only, not the other fees. In many cases, no extra immunizations are required for re-examination.
Everything else is added "a la carte". We will suggest the procedures necessary for the preparation of your form.
Our prices are very competitive because we negotiated a special deal on testing with our lab.
Chest X-ray: $70.00, including the required reading by a radiology specialist.
Immunizations: $22 for administration if free vaccine is available from the MN Dept. of Health (most of the time for most of the vaccines), more if we have to buy it. The prices vary from time to time depending on the price extended to us by the manufacturer for the vaccines we have to buy. Our front desk person can answer questions regarding specific vaccines at any particular time. Feel free to call.
Measles, mumps and rubella titers (includes a free MMR shot if indicated): $50 if we have free MMR vaccine from the MDH, $90 if we don't.
Varicella (chicken pox) titer (if you don't know whether you've had the disease, includes a free shot if indicated): $40 if we have free chicken pox vaccine from the MDH, $70 if we don't.
Again, if you can have the necessary testing and shots done elsewhere under insurance, do it and we will accept the records.

World Cup 2018: Thoughts on England v Tunisia
19th June 2018 by Nick Leave a Comment
I suddenly remembered why I stopped watching England play football whenever possible about ten minutes before kick off last night.
I can say with absolute certainty that I watched every single England senior men's team football match between around 1998 and the 2010 World Cup. I know because often times, when England were playing say, a really guaranteed to be dull friendly against Luxembourg, I would resolve to not watch it – until I found myself in a pub somewhere, watching the match, as if I had no will to resist. But the 2010 World Cup broke me; or more specifically, one particular match at that World Cup, England v Algeria on June 18th, 2010 in Cape Town.
It remains the worst game of football I have ever watched. Actually, scratch that: I don't see how it will ever be possibly superseded as the worst match I've ever watched in future, so let's just call it the worst football match of all time. Algeria came to get a point and parked the bus. England, weirdly, seemed to be playing for the same result, even though that made no sense. Although there had to have been some, I can recall no shots on goal from either side throughout. At the end, the England fans in the stadium booed. Rooney got irritated about it, even though had England won that match they would have won the group and then had Ghana followed by Uruguay as obstacles to the semi-final – as opposed to playing the Germans in the second round, who predictably whomped us 4-1.
Since then, I have watched England sparingly. And I rarely really enjoy it when I do. Last night, was a good example – I think the fact that it was England facing another north African team in the World Cup couldn't have helped calm memories of 2010 for me. Worse, England played exceptionally Englandy throughout: an opening 20 minutes when there were enough chances for England to go up 4-0 up squandered, as if they just sort of exploded onto the pitch at the opposition; a very bad break crushing their collective will; a second half in which England loped around the pitch, seemingly exhausted. The thing that wasn't very England about last night, however, was the result. England v Algeria wouldn't be remembered as the match that broke my ability to obsessively watch England football matches if they'd managed to win 1-0 off a cheeky header from a corner in stoppage time, of that I feel certain. Last night, England slightly lost the plot in the second half of a World Cup match – and yet still managed to win nonetheless. When was the last time we saw that happen? 1990?
This is an England side it could be easy to get your hopes up over. Southgate is a very likeable, down to Earth bloke, who is miles away from either the continental coldness of a Sven or Capello, as well as from a Keegan or McClaren "Stevie G and I are BFFs" type of vibe. He just seems like a guy who has a job to do and wants to get on with it. The players seem to be responding well to this. There's enough talent there that if they play as a unit, they could get to the quarters at least. But then again, maybe I'm just allowing myself to get carried away, something I always promise myself I won't do every time the World Cup comes around – and then duly break that promise to myself at the first sign of hope.
While you're here: I've written a new book called "One Last Number", about what happens when the biggest pop star in the world kills himself live on stage, taking some of his fans along with him. It explores what can and cannot be considered real news in this day and age, and how the splintering we see within social media means we no longer have shared, collective narratives when large scale tragedies occur. Anyway, it's being published through Unbound, where you have to sell enough advance copies before going to print. If you're at all interested in "One Last Number", check it out here:
