Muslim Kids TV is the first Islamic internet TV for children. Be the best you can be on Muslim Kids TV.
MuslimKids.TV is a built in Canada digital entertainment platform. Recognized internationally as the largest provider of values-based English-language entertainment for Muslim families. Muslim Kids TV offers premium content, best in class service and the safest possible digital environment for children around the world.
It is dubbed as the "Netflix" for Muslim children providing thousands of entertaining and educational episodes to watch, featuring interactive games, a mini-social network, ebooks and kid-friendly Quranic studies. By spreading the superpowers of kindness, inclusiveness and hope through quality content, Muslim Kids TV strategically counters the harm caused by the negative messages about certain religions and ethnic groups.
Muslim Kids TV was founded by husband and wife creative team, Michael Milo and Flordeliza Dayrit when they realized as parents that there was a desperate lack of TV shows and movies that would strengthen their young children's love of the Muslim faith and culture. It became their mission to create healthy alternatives for families around the world who seek moral values and traditional cultural content for their children.
Michael Milo
Michael Milo has 30 years experience in educational media, television, marketing and communications. His portfolio includes hundreds of corporate videos, documentaries, a feature film and numerous children's television series.
In 2005, Milo was Director of Television Programming for Huda TV, (Cairo and Riyadh) where he was responsible for one hundred staff and contract production personnel. During his tenure at the channel quality and quantity of programming improved significantly. Huda TV became recognized as one of the top 100 TV channels in the region.
In 2010, Milo received an MBA from University of Saskatchewan with a focus on entrepreneurship and commercialization of technology.
Milo began fulltime work on Milo Productions Inc. and launched Muslim Kids TV platform in 2016.
Flordeliza Dayrit
Flordeliza Dayrit emigrated to Canada from the Philippines when she was 15 years old. She was not born a Muslim but became one by choice. Driven by a burning desire to provide wholesome alternatives— not just for their children—but all children worldwide, Muslim Kids TV was born.
As a media artist and writer, her artwork engages children instantly through simple, catchy tunes, clever lyrics; exciting stories and narratives. Her songs and stories provide kids with a positive self-image in a world.

MUSLIM KIDS TV CHILD SAFETY POLICY
Thank you for visiting Muslim Kids TV. Muslim Kids TV offers educational entertainment for your children through "Websites" and "Apps", collectively "Platform".
Privacy Principles
Muslim Kids TV understands that you have entrusted us to provide safe, entertaining and educational content for your child. We take this trust seriously and recognize the importance of privacy concerns especially in the digital environment.
With this in mind, we have adopted this Child Safety Policy and our Privacy Policy for our Websites and Apps. On our Platform, we collect personal information in two forms. One form is information that we expressly request you to provide in connection with certain activities. The second form is anonymous information that we automatically collect from your computer, phone or other device.
Our Privacy Policy is based on the following principles:
Especially for children under 13
You are free to choose whether or not to engage in any activity on our Platforms that involves your submission of personal information, such as your name, email address, or other information that can be used to identify or contact an individual, whether online or offline. We will ask you for such information expressly. Most of the activities on our Platforms do not require you to submit any personal information.
When we ask you to submit personal information, we will explain in the sign-up or collection process how we will use the information (such as requesting an email address when you sign up for a newsletter). We will use the information only as we have stated, other than in Special Circumstances which are described below (such as in relation to law enforcement or a business transfer).
We use the anonymous information that is automatically collected from your device, such as a computer's Internet Protocol address, a mobile device identifier, operating system, or general location such as zip code, to support internal operations so that we can understand and monitor the usage of our Platforms and improve the performance of the Platforms.
There is no behavioral advertising on our Platforms which means that you will not see any advertising that is targeted to you based on your combined activity on our Platforms and your activity on other sites and apps.
Third parties that we use to assist with the Platforms are required to follow this Privacy Policy.
Our collection of personal information on Platforms that are directed to children under 13 ("Children's Platforms") is intended to follow the principles of the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act ("COPPA"), a U.S. law designed to protect the online privacy of children under the age of 13.
We will obtain parental consent before asking for personal information on our Children's Platforms, unless the request for information falls within an exception that would be permitted under COPPA.
We do not make personal information collected from children publicly available nor do we enable children to do so on our Platforms. We will not condition a child's participation in any activity or service on the disclosure of more personal information than is reasonably necessary to participate in an activity.
Parents may contact us (at [email protected]) to review, update or delete any of their children's personal information that we may have collected and to elect for us not to collect any additional personal information from their children.
We will update this Privacy Policy from time to time by posting the updated Privacy Policy online. We will not change how we handle previously collected information without providing notice and obtaining parental consent where necessary.
The following describes our Privacy Policy as it relates to certain specific activities.
Information we request on our children's platforms
We will obtain parental consent before asking for personal information on our Children's Platforms, unless the request for information falls within an exception that would be permitted under COPPA. We will explain how we will use the information and use it only for that purpose. Here are examples of personal information that we request on our Children's Platforms:
Username, age, gender content preferences.
Parents are requested to provide this information so that their child may have a unique account. The unique account allows the child to enjoy recommended content based upon these selections. The child's activity may be recorded on the site to recommend content and other engagement activities.
User Generated Content.
Children are given the opportunity to post comments, images and audio recordings. All such posts are moderated by a person before they are approved for release to other users of the Platform.
We use the anonymous information that is automatically collected to support the internal operations of the Platforms. Some of this information is collected through third-party analytics tools. Internal operations include the following:
to monitor metrics such as total number of visitors and traffic;
to understand which activities and services are most popular;
to understand the pages where visitors enter our Sites and the pages viewed;
to reduce the repetition in the promotional messages that users see on our Platforms;
to understand generally the location of our users (e.g., zip code information);
to recognize the browsers used to visit our Sites, so that the content is adapted for the relevant browser; and
to diagnose and fix technology problems
to provide advertisements to other parents.
We do link this automatically-collected data to Personal Information such as such as username, email address for the purpose of improving recommended content.
When you visit a Platform, we may use cookies and similar technologies like pixels and web beacons, to collect this anonymous information for the purpose of the internal operations of our Platforms. A "cookie" is a piece of information that a web site or an app transfers to a user's device for record-keeping purposes. As a user moves from one page or one screen to another, a cookie is used to tell us that it is the same device. We also may use a cookie to keep track of your selections. You may set your device to accept or not accept cookies and you may delete any cookies that you have received. However, should you decide to disable any cookies we place on your device, you may not be able to use certain services or features on our Platforms. A "web beacon" is a one-pixel image (which may be visible or transparent), which may be embedded on a web page or e-mail message, and which may also provide us with information about usage of that page or e-mail message.
Law Enforcement and Safety.
We may access, preserve and share your information when we have a good faith belief that it is necessary to: (i) respond to a legal request (like a search warrant, court order or subpoena) or otherwise to take action because we believe it is required or advisable under the law; (ii) detect, prevent and address fraud and other illegal activity; (iii) respond to your requests for customer service; or (iv) limit our legal liability or to protect the rights, property, or personal safety of ourselves, any user of our Platforms, a third party or the general public including as part of investigations.
Business Transfer.
If we sell or otherwise transfer part or the whole of Muslim Kids TV or our assets to another organization (e.g., in the course of a transaction like a merger, acquisition, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation), your personal information, and any other information collected through our Platforms may be among the items sold or transferred. The buyer or transferee will be required to honor the commitments we have made in this Privacy Policy.
Security Notice.
In the unlikely event that we believe that the security of your personal information in our possession or control may have been compromised, we may seek to notify you of that development. If a notification is appropriate, we would endeavor to do so as promptly as possible under the circumstances, and, to the extent you have given us your e-mail address, we may notify you by e-mail. You consent to our use of e-mail as a means of such notification.
We contract with third parties to provide certain services to facilitate the operations of our Platforms ("service providers"), such as to manage the analytics information about usage of our Platforms or to process payments. Our service providers will be given access to your information only as is reasonably necessary to provide the services for which they are contracted. They will be required to abide by the terms of this Privacy Policy in their handling of personal information.
Where we store your information
Your information collected through a Platform may be stored and processed in the United States or any other country in which we or our service providers maintain facilities. We or our service providers may transfer information that we collect about you, including personal information across borders and from your country or jurisdiction to other countries or jurisdictions around the world. If you are located in the European Union or other regions with laws governing data collection and use that may differ from U.S. law, please note that we may transfer information, including personal information, to a country and jurisdiction that does not have the same data protection laws as your jurisdiction. By using our Platform you consent to the transfer of information to the U.S. or to any other country in which we or our service providers maintain facilities and the use and disclosure of information about you as described in this Privacy Policy.
We strive to maintain the security of information but cannot guarantee that information security measures are fail-safe or guarantee that information on a Platform may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed. Our Platforms maintain technical and organizational steps to keep information collected secure, including limiting the number of people who have physical access to our database servers and use of electronic security systems and password protections to guard against unauthorized access.
Other web sites and services
Our Platforms may link to other websites or apps, including content offered by third parties that we do not control and whose privacy and data collection practices may differ from ours ("Third Party Platforms"). We are not responsible for the practices employed by any websites or services linked to or from our Platforms, including the information or content contained within them.
When you go via our link to Third Party Platforms, you become subject to their terms of use and privacy policies rather than ours. You should review these other website privacy policies regarding any personal information that they may collect about you.
Involvement in your family's online lives is one of the most important safety tools available. In addition, we encourage you to educate yourself and your child on privacy concerns. We recommend, as a starting point, the following guide published by the federal government, http://www.onguardonline.gov/articles/0031-kids-privacy.

Legal basis for processing Personal Information (EEA visitors only)
If you are a visitor located in the European Economic Area (EEA), our legal basis for collecting and using the personal information described above will depend on the personal information concerned and the specific context in which we collect it. However, we will normally collect personal information from you only where we have your consent to do so, where we need the personal information to perform a contract with you, or where the processing is in our legitimate interests and not overridden by your data protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms. In some cases, we may also have a legal obligation to collect personal information from you.
If we ask you to provide personal information to comply with a legal requirement or to perform a contract with you, we will make this clear at the relevant time and advise you whether the provision of your personal information is mandatory or not (as well as of the possible consequences if you do not provide your personal information). Similarly, if we collect and use your personal information in reliance on our legitimate interests (or those of any third party), we will make clear to you at the relevant time what those legitimate interests are.
Use of Navigational Information
We use Navigational Information to operate and improve the Website and Apps. We may also use Navigational Information alone or in combination with Personal Information to provide you with personalized information about Muslim Kids TV. Your location information is not shared with other users.
Content Generated by a Child
Certain activities on our Websites and Apps allow children to comment, create or manipulate content and save it for viewing by other subscribers. These activities are designed to ensure children DO NOT provide any personal information and therefore may not result in notice to the parent or require parental consent. We pre-screen this content generated by children to delete any personal information. Examples of created content are open-text fields, and drawings that allow text or free-hand entry of information. In the event any of this content contains personal information, it does not pass the pre-screen, it is removed and it is never posted publicly. In addition, parents may opt-in to receive notification of when their child posts such content.
Use of Payment Information
If you give us Payment information, we use it solely to check your financial qualifications and collect payment from you. We use a third-party service provider to manage credit card processing. This service provider is not permitted to store, retain, or use information you provide except for the sole purpose of credit card processing on our behalf.
We use a variety of security technologies and procedures to help protect your Personal Information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. We secure the Personal Information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. All Personal Information is protected using appropriate physical, technical and organizational measures.
3. How we Share Information we Collect
We employ other companies and people to provide services to visitors to our Websites and Apps and our customers and users of the Subscription Service and may need to share your information with them to provide information, products or services to you. Examples may include analyzing data or performing statistical analysis, providing marketing assistance, processing credit card payments, supplementing the information you provide us in order to provide you with better service, and providing customer service or support. In all cases where we share your information with such agents, we explicitly require the agent to acknowledge and adhere to our privacy and customer data handling policies.
If we (or our assets) are acquired by another company, whether by merger, acquisition, bankruptcy or otherwise, that company would receive all information gathered by Muslim Kids TV on the Websites and the Subscription Service. In this event, you will be notified via email and/or a prominent notice on our website, of any change in ownership, uses of your Personal Information, and choices you may have regarding your Personal Information.
Compelled Disclosure
We reserve the right to use or disclose your Personal Information if required by law or if we reasonably believe that use or disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or comply with a law, court order, or legal process.
4. International Transfer of Information
To facilitate our global operations, we may establish business dealings with 3rd party companies to offer Muslim Kids TV. An example of this would be offering our service in cooperation with a telecommunications company where payments are processed by the 3rd party company. This would include transferring information between countries and allowing access to that information from other countries for the purposes described in this policy.
This Privacy Policy shall apply even if we transfer Personal Information to other countries. We have taken appropriate safeguards to require that your Personal Information will remain protected. When we share information about you we make use of standard contractual data protection clauses, which have been approved by the European Commission, to safeguard the transfer of information we collect from the European Economic Area.
International transfers to third parties
Some of the third parties described in this privacy policy, which provide services to us under contract, are based in other countries that may not have equivalent privacy and data protection laws to the country in which you reside. When we share information of customers in the European Economic Area or Switzerland, we make use standard contractual data protection clauses, binding corporate rules for transfers to data processors, or other appropriate legal mechanisms to safeguard the transfer.

Dan Rea replaces Paul Sullivan
On October 1, 2007 By Dan KennedyIn Uncategorized
No surprise, but it's good news that veteran journalist Dan Rea has been named to replace the late Paul Sullivan as the evening talk-show host on WBZ Radio (AM 1030). Rea will continue in the tradition of Sullivan and his predecessor, the late David Brudnoy — that is, he'll host a show where the conversation is civil, and where news and interviews take precedence over ideology.
Now, as Brudnoy always said, if we can only get the Bruins off WBZ, we'll be all set.
(Via Universal Hub and the Herald's Messenger Blog.)

O-FISH-L
Dan Rea is a great choice, but I'd have thought C-BS would have waited at least 30 days after Paul Sullivan's death to name a successor. I realize Paul left the station in June, but why not, out of respect, wait another 10 days to name a replacement? The rush seems to put corporate greed over dignity.Also, any word on whether Dan Rea will continue in his TV role at ch. 4? I haven't seen any mention of his TV status in the news reports on this, although I may have missed it.
Mike from Norwell
The Bruins, who dat? Thought they would have been moved by now to some 10 watt college station.
Fish: I think WBZ was ready to make the announcement when Paul was alive, and then held back when he died. Under the circumstances, is there any good time to make such an announcement? A class act will be followed by another class act, and no doubt Paul would have approved.
amusedbutinformedobserver
Maybe I'm showing my age, but I remember young Dan Rea as the conservative "answer" to Jerry Williams on BZ back in the 70s. He was a rabid YAFer back then
I'm not impressed. I hear Rea talking far too much. He is not acting as a host or a facilitator; he wants too much to be a part of the action. He often interupts guests and callers and takes too long to "put in his two cents worth." He hasn't proven to be particularly thoughtful, insightful, witty or warm.
Don Harribine
Dan Rea was a poor choice to replace Paul Sullivan and theannouncement was made much too soonHe talks too much and interrupts hiscallers. I don't consider him a good talk show host, at least in the element of the Paul Sullivan'sand the David Brodnoys.

When it came to the fashion at this year's Emmy Awards, it was all about diversity. We're talking everything from bright jewel tones to heavily embellished stunners to more streamlined black and white fare. Of course, there are always a few key elements that have the habit of recurring. Capes and capelets were trending, while tiers of ruffles, strategic cut-outs and unconventional trains all added extra oomph to several looks. Although skin was also in, it was restricted to relatively refined glimpses via plunging necklines, somewhat see-through skirts and the aforementioned cut-outs. For all the style moments from this year's ceremony, simply scroll through the slideshow above.

Review Black Rain (1989): A Ridley Scott classic!
Black Rain is a film I must have watched like over 15 times if not more. Yet somehow I still had not written a review for it. So guess it was about time I did. Now let me start by quoting Roger Ebert and what he thought of it.
Even given all of its inconsistencies, implausibilities and recycled cliches, "Black Rain" might have been entertaining if the filmmakers had found the right note for the material. But this is a designer movie, all look and no heart, and the Douglas character is curiously unsympathetic. He plays it so cold and distant that the heartfelt scenes ring false. And the colors in the movie - steel grays, gloomy blues and wet concrete, occasionally illuminated by neon signs, showers of sparks and exploding automobiles - underline the general gloom. (Read full article here.)
Black Rain is basically an action flick. So of course it's going to be full of cliches and inconsistencies. A story in an action film should be in serve of the action sequences and not the other way around. I really don't know what Ebert is referring to when he is talking about the right note implying there is a wrong one. Ridley Scott definitely hit the right note. There is a reason Douglas played his role so cold and distant. This becomes apparent in a scene where Masahiro ( Ken Takakura) has a heart to heart about a certain action committed by Nick. All this time he has been fooling himself that he has been doing the right thing all the time and that it doesn't matter if you break some rules from time to time. But it's in this scene you can see he doesn't believe this and is ashamed of his past actions. Him acting cold and distant is a bravado he puts up to show he doesn't have a care in the world. Besides he has seen things we people couldn't believe. I am sorry I had to make this joke. Anyway, being a cop in New York has made him bitter and cynical. It's not that hard to imagine that your outlook on life is dark and gloomy. It makes sense that for the most part he brought that darkness with him. But in the end he has absolved himself completely. Hist outlook has changed and he is back on the path of righteousness. How such character development can be seen as false is beyond me.
Roger Eberts also mentions Kate Capshaw, an American woman who seems to know a lot about the Yakuza. I have to agree with him on this. Plot wise it makes sense for Nick to connect with this woman. I mean without his partner Charlie (Andy Garcia) and not really supported by the Japanese authorities he feels lost in Japan. But what are the odds that of all the places he would find such a woman. It's very convenient. And to be honest I don't think she truly fits in this film.
As for Ebert's comment about this being a designer film that goes for the visuals. If it's just beautiful visuals and spectacle then yes I can accept that as criticism. But Ridley Scott is also depicting manifestations of Nick's mood. I always wondered why they called this film Black Rain. In the film it is explained it refers to the aftermath of the bombs dropped by the Americans on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The rain and clouds were devastating and as a consequence has created people like Sato who disregarded their own identity and culture. In a way Nick is doing the same thing. He is on the warpath and only brings gloom and destruction with him. Except through events and his interactions with Masahiro he has found peace and truly is doing the right thing. Black Rain is an incredible beautiful film to look at. And there is nothing wrong with that. It comes as part of a whole package including flaws. But if it enhances my viewing experience why would I ever object to that?
I think Roger Ebert didn't understand action films and was always looking for meaning or deeper themes while the whole idea of such films is to get rid of everything that stands in the way of the action. Overall Black Rain is an action classic. It's not out yet on 4K Blu-Ray. But don't fret. The Special Collector's Blu-Ray edition looks pretty spectacular overall. Maybe some scenes are a a bit noisy but I would like to think it's that special Eighties look that adds to the charm.
Definitely a must own!

Q: WCF service which needs to keep information during execution i'm developing a self-hosted c# based WCF service for my senior year exam, i have finished coding both server and client(both in console, then i will upgrade the client in UWP), the server starts, clients connects to it but variables in the service library will reset each time a client calls a function
public static int connettiti()
    {
        Random rand = new Random();
        int ID = rand.Next(1, 999999);
        giocatori.Add(ID);
        contagiocatori++;
        if (giocatori.Count == 0)
        {
            codicevincitore = ID;
        }
        else if (giocatori.Count > 2)
        {
            return 1000000;
        }
        return ID;
    }
    public static bool avviare()
    {
        bool avvia = false;
        int count = giocatori.Count;
        if (count == 2)
        {
            avvia = true;
        }
        return avvia;
    }

List giocatori has Always only one member, so game won't start, even if I connect 5 clients, they receive their IDs, but the server sees them separately
connettiti works fine, it gives the ID, but avviare won't get that condition true
so, how can i make variables in the WCF service library keep their values for the entire execution of the server?

A: By default, each call will take place on a new instance of the service. On your host side, go to the service that implements your service contract and use the service behaviour attribute to set its InstanceContextMode.
[ServiceBehavior(InstanceContextMode = InstanceContextMode.Single)]

It's the last day of August, and though Noah Gundersen is three weeks from dropping his third studio album, "White Noise," and embarking on a nationwide tour, he has a more immediate concern on his mind: a hefty meatball sandwich from Mean Sandwich in Ballard currently threatening to seriously cramp the rock-star look Gundersen owns.
In between precarious bites, Gundersen, 28, explains how he became close with another young Seattle creative, Canlis Executive Chef Brady Williams, who hosted Gundersen's album release party at his restaurant in September.
"You became a foodie," Williams interjected, battling his own sandwich.
Since 2008, Gundersen has been honing his own attention to detail with 11 albums, culminating with his masterful "White Noise," out Sept. 22. Gundersen returns from tour to play the Neptune Theatre on Nov. 17 and 18, with Phoebe Bridgers set to open the first show and The Hollers opening the second show.
The result of a brilliant partnership between Gundersen and producer Nathan Yaccino, "White Noise" was recorded just a few blocks away from Mean Sandwich at Yaccino's studio, affectionately named The Baitshop.
It was a grueling process that saw the pair putting in extra hours to steer Gundersen's sound away from his singer-songwriter roots and refine it into something with an aural edge to match the emotional one that is Gundersen's trademark.
That might be a shocking thing to hear for fans who love his subdued debut album, "Ledges," and 2015's similar "Carry the Ghost," but Gundersen said that if time and money were no object he would have liked to do things differently. Part of the satisfaction Gundersen derived from this last time around was finally being in a position to do things his way, though credit him for bringing in legendary engineer Bob Ludwig to master the album and give it a slick but not saccharine sound.
After the rush of putting something so personal out into the world, Gundersen isn't sure how exactly he wants to build on the success and sonic departure of "White Noise," but he seems eager for the challenge.

BSE Test
BSE Practice Tests
The semi fluid mass of partly digested food is called chyme. Formation of chyme takes place in
a. Mouth
b. Small intestine
c. Large intestine
d. Liver
e. Stomach
Explaination: Explanations: The semifluid mass of partly digested food in stomach before entering duodenum is called as chyme. The food mixes thoroughly with the acidic gastric juice of the stomach by the churning movements of its muscular wall and results in the formation of chyme.
Which of the following kinds of signalling occurs when the cells communicate with each other through direct contact?
a. Endocrine signalling
b. Paracrine signalling
c. Juxtacrine signalling
d. Intracrine signalling
Explaination: Explanations: Juxtacrine signalling is an example of intercellular communication where cells communicate through direct contact. Endocrine signalling occurs between cells that are present over large distance. Paracrine signalling occurs between cells that are present over short distance. In intracrine signalling the signals are produced inside the target cell.
Chains of sarcomeres in muscles are organized into
a. Sarcolemma
b. Sarcoplasm
c. Myoblasts
d. Myofibrils
e. Fascia
Explaination: Explanations: Sarcolemma is the muscle cell membrane and the sarcoplasm is the cytoplasm of muscle cell. The connective tissue outside the epimysium (sheath of connective tissue that surrounds each muscle) that separates two muscles is called the fascia. The parallelly arranged filaments in the sarcoplasm, which are arranged by the chains of sarcomeres are called myofibrils. The embryonic cell that gives rise to muscle cell is called myoblast.
Which of the given organelles is not present in animal cells?
a. Nucleus
b. Golgi apparatus
c. Lysosome
d. Leucoplast
e. Mitochondria
Explaination: Explanations: Among the given organelles, leucoplasts are present only in plant cells but not in animal cells. They are the sites responsible for storage of proteins, starch and lipid molecules.
The adipose tissue plays role in
a. Pigment storage
b. Fat storage
c. Stretching
d. Binding organs
Explaination: Explanations: Adipose is a type of connective tissue whose cells get expanded with fat droplets and hence the nucleus and cytoplasm of this cell are pushed towards edges to form ring like structure. Adipose tissue provides insulation, stores fat and gives protection. Pigmented connective tissue that is present in eyes and skin is meant to store pigments. Elastic connective tissue helps in stretching. Dense connective tissues bind the organs together.
The shortest phase of cardiac cycle is
a. Atrial systole
b. Ventricular systole
c. Atrial diastole
d. Ventricular diastole
e. Equal duration for A and B
Explaination: Explanations: Atrial systole is the shortest phase of cardiac cycle. Atrial systole gets completed in 0.1 seconds. Duration of atrial diastole is 0.7 seconds. Duration of ventricular systole and diastole is 0.3 seconds and 0.5 seconds respectively.
Implantation is the process where
a. The blastocyst becomes embedded in the endometrium.
b. The sperm nuclei fuse with the egg nuclei
c. Loss of the lining of endometrium takes place
d. The gastrula becomes embedded in the endometrium
Explaination: Explanations: The process of embedding of blastocyst to the endometrium is known as implantation. The fetus receives oxygen and nutrients from mother due to this adhesion. The blastula differentiates into three layers namely endoderm, mesoderm and ectoderm to form gastrula.
Acceptor stem is present in
a. tRNA
b. rRNA
c. siRNA
d. mRNA
e. hnRNA
Explaination: Explanations: tRNA consists of variable loop, T??C loop, anticodon loop, D-loop and acceptor stem. The anticodon loop is needed for binding to the mRNA. Acceptor stem is needed for attaching theamino acid.
In the process of animal development, gastrulation is represented as
a. Gamete to zygote
b. Zygote to blastula
c. Blastula to gastrula
d. Gastrula to neurula
Explaination: Explanations: Gastrulation is the stage in development of an embryo, in which three distinct germ layers (ectoderm, endoderm and mesoderm) are formed. It takes place next to cleavage, in which blastula formation occurs from zygote. After gastrulation is neurulation which is the typical organogenesis.
A measure of the disorder or randomness in a closed system is called
a. Entropy
b. Enthalpy
c. Potential energy
d. Kinetic energy
Explaination: Explanations: Entropy is the measure of the disorder or randomness which is derived from the second law of thermodynamics.Enthalpy is the sum of the internal energy of the system plus the product of its volume multiplied by the pressure. Potential energy is the ability of a system to do work due to its position or internal structure. Kinetic energy of an object is the energy it possesses due to its motion.
In amphibian, vitellogenin is synthesized by
a. Oocyte
b. Uterus
c. Liver
d. Spleen
e. Intestine
Explaination: Explanations: Vitellogenin is a precursor protein that is expressed in the females of all oviparous species including amphibians, fishes, reptiles and birds. Vitellogenin is a glycolipoprotein secreted by the liver. Vitellogenin can be expressed by the male(in a few species) in the presence of estrogenic endocrine disruptive chemicals. Vitellogenin precursors provide the major egg yolk proteins which serves as nutrients.
The state of a neuron which inhibits the generation of action potential is said to be
a. Depolarized
b. Repolarized
c. Hyperpolarized
d. Resting potential
e. A, B and D
Explaination: Explanations: Resting potential is the state of a neuron which is not under any stimulus. The normal resting potential of human nerves is -70 mV. When a neuron receives stimulus, the cell???s interior will be depolarized with influx of Na+ ions which will result in action potential. Immediately after the generation of action potential the cell is hyperpolarized; that makes the cell more negative and keeps the neuron in a refractory period so that the next action potential cannot generate. Next is the repolarization i.e. neuron will come to its original resting state.
The term ???staminate??? refers to
a. Unisexual male flower bearing stamens
b. Unisexual female flower bearing pistils
c. Bisexual flower bearing stamens and pistils
d. Unisexual male flower bearing pistils
e. Unisexual female flower bearing stamens
Explaination: Explanations: Staminate refers to the male flowers that bear only stamens but lack pistils. Pistillate refers to the female flowers that bear only pistils but lack stamen.
Which protein is targeted by cholera toxin?
a. G proteins
b. Actin
c. Permease
d. Vinculin
e. Vitonectin
Explaination: Explanations: Cholera toxin inhibits the GTPase activity of the G protein. So the protein always remains in the activated state. This results in the constant activation of adenylate cyclase enzyme. cAMP level rises due to the activation of adenylate cyclase. This eventually leads to secretion of water, sodium ions etc to the intestinal lumen.
The process of delivery of foetus is called
a. Implantation
b. Lactation
c. Parturition
d. Fertilization
Explaination: Explanations: The process in which the foetus is delivered is called as parturition. Oxytocin is released during parturition which is responsible for the contraction of uterus.

Q: Rails Logs: Only show Create, Update, and Destroy SQL statements in Logs and nothing else I only want to see CREATE/UPDATE/DESTROY-related sql statements in the logs.  I do not want any READ-related statements, caches, or any other information displayed in the logs because it is making it tough to sift through.
Currently within app/config/environments/production.rb I have the following configuration set which shows way too much in the logs:
config.log_level = :debug

The default config for production shows too little information.  It ignores all the sql statements I want to see:
# shows too little information
config.log_level = :info

Is there a configuration setting in rails to have the logs output only the information I want to see?  If not: how might I do this?

A: You can disable logging of ActiveRecord database queries by setting the log_level to :info.
Then use Rails' ActiveSupport::Instrumentation and subscribe to the sql.active_record event.
Just add the following code into an initializer:
# in `config/initializers/query_logger.rb`
class QueryLogger
  def call(name, started, finished, unique_id, payload)
    query = payload[:sql]

    Rails.logger.info("SQL Query: #{query}") unless query.start_with?('SELECT')
  end
end

ActiveSupport::Notifications.subscribe('sql.active_record', QueryLogger.new)


As promised, here is another gem from this week's Photo Week 2015 on CreativeLive. If you've missed the courses from earlier this week, I'll be highlighting a few of my favorites in the next few days. Photo Week concludes today, so you have one final full day of education that you can access for free, or you can purchase individual courses at a discounted price for the ones you missed. If you missed Pye's course on Working With Flash, you can get it here.
Peter Hurley is an industry favorite and not just because he's a cool cat that makes phrases like, "Shebang!!!" awesome, but because of the way he works with and interacts with his subjects. His natural charisma and ability to bring out the best in clients makes it fascinating to watch him work, and I always pick up a few tips. Below is a short video from his course on CreativeLive where he teaches you to capture amazing headshots. He shares his Hurley Headshot System and the 7 steps he takes to get the perfect headshot.
In the 3 minute video, he focuses on step 5 and how to get what he calls "the micro-expression." This comes after he poses the client and checks to make sure their hair and clothing are not in disarray. He then engages with the subject and elicits a facial reaction. This way, you get a real expression for the headshot, and the client isn't stiff or awkward. He demonstrates this at the beginning of the video and uses the rest of the video to explain.
To see the rest of Peter's course, it's now $39 but only for a couple more days, so grab it here before the price goes up!
This was excellent! I always enjoy watching Peter. He's informative and funny. I've seen several of his videos and I always learn something new. $39.00 is a steal for this.


Hawkesbury trainer Garry White is confident of producing his first ever runner in the $400,000 Provincial Championships Final (1400m) at Royal Randwick on April 1. But first, his promising young galloper Generalissimo must qualify in today's $150,000 heat of the Provincial series.
By running in the first three, Generalissimo ($3.50 into $2.90 favourite with TAB fixed odds) will gain his ticket to the 'big dance' and give White his first representative in the race.
Generalissimo has started on eight occasions for three wins and a placing with over $80,000 in prizemoney. Last start he was third to Man From Uncle and Guard of Honour in the Group 3 Eskimo Prince Stakes (1200m) at Randwick.
White said Generalissimo jumped from barrier one which was a disadvantage: "We drew the fence when no-one wanted to be there as the going on the rails was not as good as two or three out and there was a bit of kick back. Under the circumstances it was a big run.
Generalissimo will be having his first attempt over 1400m but White believes the gelding will encounter few problems with the step up in journey.
Tye Angland has ridden the horse in five of his eight outings (for two wins) and will again partner Generalissimo today: "He's well weighted on 56 kilos for a class three horse with a benchmark of 75," White observed.
Generalissimo was beaten at Hawkesbury when making his debut but has since won all three starts at the course. "We have always believed he would be pretty good and he ran an excellent race in his first Stakes event when fifth (Guard of Honour) in the Heritage Stakes at Royal Randwick.
Last start Every Chance finished third to Hessdalen there over 1400m on February 21: "He had 12 days between runs and I didn't do much with him so he may have just needed the run. He had quite a blow afterwards.


Can a Lamzac be used on water?
The Lamzac was invented and designed for land usage. Please note, at Lamzac and Fatboy we advise NOT to use the Lamzac the Original inflatable lounger on water. The inflatable lounger is not a flotation device! Each Lamzac the Original comes with a clear manual and labelling advising not to use this product on water. The Lamzac the Original is intended as a lounge product only. We cannot accept responsibility for copies of our original design, which in some cases are poorly made and come with no instructions or warnings at all.


I just finished watching the appeal made by Master Cobra Mansa about the campaign to raise funds to finalize the film "Angolan Roots of Capoeira". As the majority of us already know, Cobrinha as much as Matthias have dedicated themselves, each in his own way and manner, to the research of the art form we now call Capoeira (Angola, Regional, Contemporary... this is not relevant here).
, and I believe, many other people as well, are particularly interested to see a result that matches time and energy these two capoeiristas/researchers have invested to conclude their dream (paraphrasing Cobrinha). They are committed to finalize the film in the best possible way. In other words, the project needs another small investment to mainly conclude the edit.
Capoeira as well as we, the capoeiristas, deserve a product of high quality, not only in relation to the edition, translation and other technical aspects of the project, but particularly for a whole generation of citizens, artists, researchers, capoeiristas, musicians or educators who are, increasingly, interested in the interaction between the peoples, the diversity and continuity of the traditional cultures of the world. In sum, I believe that a little contribution, as small as it may be, will help to make real this very special dream, which I think is a dream we all share.

Author Name: Pierce Askegren
John Pierce Askegren (1955 - November, 2006), of the Louisiana Askegrens, was an American author best known for his work in adaptations of licensed properties and is a lifelong comic book fan. His life began in the circus where his parents performed as high wire walkers. After a tragic fall at the age of 11, Askegren broke his hip and began his life-long affinity for Tab Soda. After his father took a job with a railroad company, Askegren's parents finally settled in a small Northern Virginia town where he non-eventfully finished Junior High and High School. He attended Madison College in the early 1970s where he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts. During his college years, Askegren, dabbled in a singing career in and around the Shenandoah Valley and Washington D.C. areas.
After a chance meeting with millionaire Herbert Haft, chairman and chief operating officer of the Dart Group, Askegren went to work at Crown Books. His time at Crown Books was tumultuous as he moved from store to store, finally ending up at the unglamorous Rolling Valley Mall location. He finally left during the late 1980s and went to work in the Defense Industry where he has been a logistician, editor, and technical writer.
Askegren died suddenly shortly before Thanksgiving of 2006.

Q: Solving for $h$, given $\frac{T}{w} = h + \frac{X-1}{h^i}$ I have a problem which have happened to me before. It just takes so long between the incidents in different courses I take so I never remember how to approach the issue. I really need some way to think about how to approach this that I might actually remember.
How do I solve for a variable when the terms of it have different exponents?
In my case:
$$\frac{T}{w} = h + \frac{X-1}{h^i}$$
I need to solve for $h$. I just can't find a way to do it.
Any advice would be much appreciated!

A: You can re arrange this, to get $h^{i+1} - \left(\frac{T}{w}\right)h^i + (X-1)=0$.
Edit: the following only applies if $i$ is a non negative integer.
This is a degree $i+1$ polynomial. This has closed form solutions if $i\leq3$, by the quadratic, cubic or quartic formula. However, it is a well known result of Abel, often proved via Galois theory, that there is no general formula for polynomials of degree 5 or larger.
So, if $i \geq 4$, then you may be lucky and have a closed form solutions if the coefficients happen to work nicely. However, this will not be true in general!
You could try factoring out $h^i$ which would give you $h^i(h - \frac{T}{w})= 1 - X$. This may or may not help, depending on the context.


Big news for anyone interested in health and long life: Two studies this week have given us new reasons to eat whole grains: Specifically, the research found that whole grains contribute to longer life span. So to anyone who enjoys a good bowl of oatmeal or picks the whole grain bread at the store — congratulations! You will probably outlive us all.
The first of these studies, released Monday after initially being recieved back in December, was published in Circulation and was conducted by researchers at Harvard. In analyzing the available studies done on the subject, which included over 700,000 total participants, they found that people who consumed more whole grains were less likely to die during the study period. Meaning whole grains help keep you alive. They recommend that you eat at least three servings of whole grain a day, which they theorize will help prevent pre-mature death.
It is unclear if movie popcorn counts in that total, but I'm going to say that it should because now I don't have to justify eating it anymore.
[Whole] grain intake is associated with a reduced risk of coronary heart disease, cardiovascular disease, and total cancer, and mortality from all causes, respiratory diseases, infectious diseases, diabetes, and all non-cardiovascular, non-cancer causes.
Like I said: Just as awesome, if not better. Who doesn't love to hear that the brown rice in their stir-fry is actually going to help prevent "mortality from all causes?"
Unfortunately, most Americans don't eat enough whole grains at the moment, which means chances are goo you should think about upping your intake. And given that the science seems pretty well sold on this whole "whole grain is good for you" thing, here are some additional benefits you can expect from whole grains, now that you're already going to be inhaling them in order to stave off death.
Studies have found that whole grain can lower your cholesterol, thereby reducing your risk of heart disease.
Whole grain increases the amount of fiber in your diet, which is good for everything from digestion to blood sugar.
Weirdly, whole grain can actually reduce your risk of developing asthma, as well as other inflammatory conditions, at least based on preliminary research. It's kind of amazing what this stuff can do, really.
Depending what kinds of whole grains you're eating, you could also be getting a lot of essential nutrients. From Vitamin C and Vitamin B to things like zinc and iron, different whole grains come with different benefits — but having them as part of your diet is good for a lot of different things.
