Summary: The body of the vertebra can be affected in the majority of the conditions involving the lumbar spine. Multiple references, both books and periodicals, have been reviewed, and the anatomical factors responsible for the vertebral body integrity in the lumbar spine have been included under the following important areas, namely, morphology, development, genetics, microscopic examination using histology, structural architecture, blood supply, neuromuscular control, and biomechanics. Introduction: The anatomy provides a three-dimensional frame work to support the interaction between the physiological and pathological alterations. The body of the vertebra can be affected in a majority of acute or chronic conditions involving the lumbar spine. The etiology of these conditions is multifactorial, which has been dealt with in previous studies sporadically. This study aims to review and incorporate the important anatomical factors which can influence the integrity of vertebral bodies in the lumbar region and manifest as low back pain. Methods: Multiple references, both books and periodicals, have been reviewed for the literature. Electronic databases, including Medline and PubMed, were used to collect the latest information. They were finally arranged in an anatomical framework for the article. An attempt has been made to cover these relevant issues in an integrated way in the article and have been structured into introduction, morphology, development, genetics, microscopic examination using histology, structural architecture, blood supply, neuromuscular control, biomechanics, and conclusion. The aforementioned anatomical aspects, some of which have received less attention in the literature, may be helpful to clinicians for restoring the mobility, stability, and load bearing capacity of the lumbar spine as well as planning better management strategies, especially for the chronic low back pain. Results: In our article all the anatomical factors affecting the integrity of vertebral body, including the morphology, development, genetics, growth and ossification, blood supply, specifically in the lumbar region, have been described, which were not covered earlier. The limitations of this review is its wide dimensions; hence, there are fair scopes of missing many relevant facts, as all of them cannot be compiled in a single article. We have attempted to confine our views to different anatomical domains only, this is our second limitation. Additional studies are required to incorporate and discuss the uncovered relevant scientific details. Conclusions: The integrity of the body of the lumbar vertebra is multifactorial (Fig. 8). The vast spectrum of the anatomical domain influencing it has been summarized. The evolution of erect posture is a landmark in the morphology of human beings and the lumbar lordosis, which has also contributed to the gross design of the vertebral body, is one of the most important adaptations for axial loading and bipedal movements. The role of metamerism in the evolution of vertebrate morphology is repeated in the development of spine. The body of the vertebra is intersegmental in origin, which results in dual vascular and nerve supply, both from superior and inferior aspects of the body of the lumbar vertebrae. The vertebral body ossifies from three primary centers, one for centrum, which will form the major portion of body, and the other two for neural arches. The cartilaginous growth plate is mainly responsible for the longitudinal vertebral growth. Regional differentiation of the vertebral column, and the definite pattern of the structure of the different vertebra, is regulated by a large number of genetic factors, including the Hox genes. The vertebral body design therefore provides the requirements for optimal load transfer by maximal strength with minimal weight. Bone mineral density (BMD), bone quality, microarchitecture, and material properties are the important factors that contribute to bone strength. BMD is highly heritable; bone mineral distribution and architecture are also shown to be under strong genetic influence. All the aforementioned factors finally integrate to ensure mainly the mobility, stability, and load bearing capacity of the lumbar spine.

Rangers Die Casting is dedicated to providing high quality parts for our customers delivered on time and on budget.We have always been a competitively-priced die casting partner for customers. And we have long believed that the most cost-efficient foundry operations are those that adhere to best practices for protecting the environment. For example, Rangers has always been smart about recycling and proper disposal of industrial wastes.
Rangers is proud to announce we have earned the ISO 14001 Certification for Environmental Management Practices.
"Achieving ISO 14001 Certification demonstrates our continuing and long-standing commitment to the environment and safe working practices here at Ranger Die Casting," he added.
Conserving valuable material and energy resources.
Eliminating or minimizing impacts on the environment.
Complying with safety and environmental laws, regulations and other requirements.
ISO 14001 Certification is our assurance the parts we produce for you have been manufactured under conditions that meet or exceed the latest standards for environmental health and safety. This certification means you never have to worry about negative publicity or pollution in the production of your die cast components.
"ISO 14001 Certification is one more reason to 'Buy American' through Rangers," noted Larry Larson.
What Goes Into a Rangers Quote?
When you send Rangers a bid request, we go to work immediately to determine the costs involved in producing your component. Here is a list of the things we look at.
Labor: We carefully analyze the time required for each step in the process including mold making, casting, and cleaning up the finished part. If value added services such as heat treating, machining or finishing are part of the bid, we plan the most efficient way to move your parts through our production line to minimize labor costs.
Materials: The amount of material we need to pour in order to produce your component is more than the volume of the finished part itself. During the bid process, we study your design carefully to look for ways to minimize this extra material. By developing the most efficient mold design, we may reduce the total volume of metal required for the pour and also minimize the cleanup of your parts. The result is lower metal costs for you.
Setup: This is the real time we need to get our equipment ready to cast your components. Considerations during the bid process include the time needed due to the batch size and the number of parts to be produced for you. Obviously low volume production results in a higher per part cost due to set up time than high run production.We will consult with you to determine the optimum run size based on your parts requirements and most cost-efficient production.
Tooling: Besides the cost of making your tooling, we have to consider the cost of wear on the tool during parts production and the resulting repair or replacement costs.
Energy: We calculate the energy needed to raise the metal from room temperature to melt temperature in order to pour your part. Factors include furnace efficiency and the electricity rate.
Tooling: Does the die caster understand your tooling requirements? Your die caster can offer suggestions to reduce tooling costs through better tooling or part design. Check that the tooling cost includes everything necessary for building your tool. Ask about any additional services that will be necessary.
Engineering: Verify that engineering time is included in the bid. This involves time necessary to work with you to determine the optimum tool design for your component. It is essential that die cast engineers have a full understanding of your part concept and performance requirements for the end component.
Process Simulation: Your die caster should perform an analysis to predict and optimize metal flow, air entrapment, metal velocity, thermal balance, hotspots and other issues that can arise during the die casting process. Proper preparation assures an efficient die cast design, shortens lead times and optimizes production costs.
Finishing: Whether you plan to use the services of your die caster to finish your parts or will be performing finishing operations in house, make certain your die caster understands the stresses that will be applied to your components during the finishing operations. If your die caster is bidding the finishing steps, then finishing requirements not only affects alloy selection, but also the workflow through the die caster's plant.
The Environmental Protection Agency soon will release a number of regulations designed to improve the environment and fight global warming. Among these is a proposal to tighten limits on smog-causing ozone.
While the goal of these new regulationsis admirable, some business groups have expressed concern that this particular ruling on smog control could become the most expensive federal regulation of all time.

Golden Knights Fever Is Sweeping the Nation as Vegas Routs Kings 4-0
Patrick Keene
On April 17th, 2018, the Vegas Golden Knights defeated the Los Angeles Kings 1-0 to sweep the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs. While it is impressive for any team to sweep another team – to win all of the games in a round without losing – the Knights' sweep of the Kings was anything but probable.
One year ago, the Las Vegas Golden Knights did not exist. Head coach Gerard Gallant was hired on April 14th, 2017, and players for the roster wouldn't be selected until later that June. If someone last summer had pitied the idea that the Golden Knights could even make the playoffs – much less win, much less sweep – I would have paid money to take their craziness somewhere else. The Las Vegas casinos, typically reputable sources for sports predictions, gave the Golden Knights 200-1 odds to win the Stanley Cup Finals. Even Golden Knight's owner Bill Foley had low expectations saying, "We don't have high expectations for this year. We're going to be competitive. If we're going to lose a game, we'd like to lose by a goal or two, not lose by five or six."
To the shock of the nation, the Knights ended the season as the second overall team in the NHL, leading the Pacific Division with an entirely unprecedented 51-24 record. Vegas made history as the only team in NHL history to make the playoffs in an inaugural season. However, the team ended the season on a sour note, as they lost two back-to-back games to a team that may prove to be a tough division rival for years to come: the LA Kings.
Tensions were high when the playoffs began, with the Knights determined to learn from their losses and get back to their winning ways from the regular season. Game 1 saw the Knights score one goal to win 1-0, with a whopping 30 saves by Vegas' all-star goalie, Marc-Andre Fleury. Game 2 went into double overtime, where Vegas' Erik Haula scored a game-winner at 15:23. Game 3 saw a total of four goals scored in the third period, with the final score ending at 3-2 Knights. In Game 4, Fleury pitched his second shutout of the series, and the Knights won 1-0.
The Golden Knights dominated the Kings in Round 1 and will advance to play the San Jose Sharks, a fierce team that also swept their previous opponents, the Anaheim Ducks. If the Golden Knights beat the Sharks, they will move on to play either the Nashville Predators or the Winnipeg Jets (assuming that those series don't have surprises). If the Golden Knights can beat either of those teams, they'll be in the finals, a dream-scenario potentially only about a month away.
The Knights' performance against the Kings suggests that they are certainly in the running. The defense was quick to block shots and clear pucks. The offense was relentless, keeping constant pressure on the puck. Goalie Marc Andre Fleury played brilliantly, only allowing three goals in four games. The Golden Knights proved that they are able to compete with the best of the best.
Remember those 200-1 odds? The sports books have dropped those to a cool 4-1 odds for the Knights to win the Stanley Cup Finals.
The Vegas Golden Knights will begin their seven game series against the San Jose Sharks at home on either April 26th or April 27th.
The VGK mantra this season has been "Just take things one game at a time." Nothing in sports is ever guaranteed, but Las Vegans and sports fans everywhere are watching closely to see if the Golden Knights will shock the world. #CupIn1

The time is getting close. Though I will probably spend a little more time getting my affairs together and doing some work on the van, the 20th is the day i leave my job of ten years. I am both nervous and excited. Im off this weekend and I'm visiting the family and getting some videos done, including my kayak video. Which has roosters screaming in the background.
I have plans to revisit my 'easy van conversion', and do a video of my actually installing a version of it in my van, since it is pretty much empty awaiting me to (re)convert it into a home. So look forward to that probably around the beginning of next month.


It was explained to me that the purpose of standardized tests is to measure a student's level of retention of material.
I don't disagree with this statement, but it shines a light on the fundamental problem and philosophy of standardized tests. By default, this assessments can't require critical thinking or problem solving, and the primary skill a student needs to be successful is a strong memory.
Last year, a former student would use my room during lunch to tutor students in other classes. One day, he was trying to explain how to solve a particularly difficult math problem. One of the students in the group turned to him and asked him how he could possibly understand how to do this when no one else in the class did. He said that when he was in my class, I had the students watch videos that explained topics in the class. Whenever he doesn't understand what his other teachers are saying, he just goes on the Internet and finds other resources that explain it in a way he understands.
during our time together, I will help you develop the skills to solve problems creatively and, if nothing else, learn how to find the answers you seek.

Broxtowe Labour says no to fracking – here's why
Home Members Broxtowe Labour says no to fracking – here's why
Letter to Anna Soubry 12 March 2018
Feed The BEAST!
Almost everybody has heard of fracking. Most people know it might be dangerous, but it is difficult to untangle the competing claims of the drilling companies, a pro-fracking Tory government, scientists and campaigners, and the people who live and work just metres away from fracking sites.
Brian Davey and Dennis May from campaign group Frack Free Notts came to Attenborough, Chilwell and Toton Labour Party's branch meeting on 6 March to explain why fracking is bad news.
They explained that fracking pressurises cavities deep below the ground using a mixture of water and chemicals to obtain natural gas. Pressure builds up in the shale rock, which breaks up and releases the gas. The fluid mixes with whatever was in the surrounding ground at the time, including any hazardous substances. The process releases highly toxic and flammable fumes and produces high levels of the greenhouse gas methane. It can also leave the land above unusable for farming and forestry.
People living near fracking sites have reported bleeding noses and sore throats and the British Medical Association says allowing fracking to take place is "a leap of faith". But our ability to regulate the industry has been scuppered by Tory cuts to safety regulators like the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).
"I knew very little about fracking and so I was really pleased to have not one but two excellent speakers about this subject at my own packed branch meeting," said Broxtowe Labour member Claire Lawrence. "No claim was left unsupported by high quality evidence and the result was a much fuller appreciation of the real damage fracking might cause to Broxtowe."
Seventy percent of Nottinghamshire is earmarked for potential fracking and the Tories' 2015 Infrastructure Act allows companies to frack in and under Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs) like Attenborough Nature Reserve.
"Fracking is an issue on our doorstep and an issue we can win on the doorstep," says Broxtowe Labour activist Matthew Curtis. "In contrast to Anna Soubry's wholehearted support for fracking in Broxtowe, Labour Party policy is to ban it. The best way to stop fracking is a Labour government."

self.name = ko.obsevable():
var messageTemplate = $("#add-template").html();
ko.applyBindings(self, messageTemplate);

bootbox.confirm({
                title: "Add new",
                message: messageTemplate,
                callback: function (value) {
                        // do something
                    }
                }
            }

And this html:

    <form role="form">

                    <input data-bind='value: name, valueUpdate: "afterkeydown"' placeholder="Name">

    </form>

And it's working fine, but I wish to enable the bootbox "ok" button only when the "name" input is validated (with a costume validation function)
Is it possible?
Thanks!

A: Well finaly i got it. Here is the answer :)

var viewModel = function () {
    var self = this;
    self.name = ko.observable();

    self.select = function () {
        var messageTemplate = $($("#add-template").html());
        ko.applyBindings(self, messageTemplate.get(0));
        messageTemplate.show();

        bootbox.dialog({
                title: "Add new",
                message:  messageTemplate,
                callback: function (value) {

                },
                buttons: {
                    render: {
                        disabled: "false",
                        label: "render",

                    overrride: {
                        label: "override",
                        className: "btn-primary",
                        callback: function() {}
                    },
                }

This paper discusses the age of birds at optimal production of eggs. The objective is to determine the age at which birds are at their best in terms of production of eggs which may be relevant in improving the output of poultry farmers in egg production. To achieve this objective, secondary data on egg production (in grams per day) by age of birds (in weeks, from 18 to 87 weeks) between 2008 and 2010 were collected from poultry farm of the National Root Crop Research Institute (NRCRI), Umudike. Polynomial regression was fitted to determine the appropriate model for age-pattern of egg production among birds aged 18 to 87 weeks. Result of the analysis show that polynomial of order 3 describes the pattern in the egg production data well, but not adequately. The result also shows that the residuals from the fitted polynomial follow the pattern autoregressive process of order 1. Using the fitted model, it was observed that the age of birds at maximum production of eggs is about 44.36weeks. The egg production corresponding to this age is about 12.14 grams per day. The birds were also found to be at their best, (in terms of egg production) when they are aged between 34.5 weeks and 54.5 weeks, with egg production of at least 11.07 grams per day. Hence, for optimal production of eggs, it is recommended that birds are not kept far beyond 54.5 weeks.


US technology giant Microsoft Corp said that Toyota Motor Corp has chosen Microsoft's technology platforms to build its communications and collaboration infrastructure for the Toyota family of companies worldwide. Financial terms were not disclosed.
Toyota Motor Sales USA Inc and other affiliates in North America began the deployment of Microsoft Office 365-dedicated cloud services as their exclusive environment in June 2012.
In Japan and other overseas affiliates, Toyota will be leveraging a hybrid model, with on-premises editions of Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft SharePoint, Microsoft Lync and Windows Server.
Microsoft will help Toyota provide these services to more than 200,000 employees around the world during the next two years, the US company said in a statement.
The goal of implementing this Microsoft platform is to better support mobile devices, reduce costs, and improve collaboration between employees with state-of-the-art enterprise social networking, conferencing, messaging and information-sharing tools, it claimed.
"We continually strive to make our business stronger by improving Toyota's organizational health, and today's announcement to upgrade our communications is another step toward that goal," said Shigeki Tomoyama, managing officer at Toyota.
"By seamlessly integrating both cloud and on-premises environments, Toyota will enable its employees to effortlessly collaborate and communicate with each other, whether they are within the same four walls or in locations around the world," said Microsoft chief operating officer Kevin Turner (pic).
This announcement represents an expansion of Toyota's collaboration with Microsoft technologies. In April 2011, Toyota and Microsoft partnered to provide next-generation telematics services using the Windows Azure cloud platform. Today's announcement expands that initial investment and includes participation in Microsoft early adopter programs to test new products before they are released.
