During the past decade, the IODP (International Ocean Discovery Program) has fostered a significant increase in deep Changing Pad biosphere investigations in the marine sedimentary and crustal environments, and scientists are well-poised to continue this momentum into the next phase of the IODP.The goals of this workshop were to evaluate recent fin
Incorporating Policies for a Healthy Food System into Land Use Planning: The Case of Waterloo Region, Canada
Land use planning is a critical tool among the strategies needed to redirect our food system into a new trajectory toward improved health, environmental sustainability, and small to midsize farm viability.We present the case of the region of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, where recent revisions to the Regional Official Plan (ROP) now include a suite of
Heart Murmurs: Innocent or Pathologic
BACKGROUND: Many normal children have heart murmurs.Most of these murmurs are innocent but differentiation of innocent murmurs from those due to structural heart disease, pathological murmurs, is important.Some clinicians do not refer the suspected patients to cardiologist due to anxiety-provoking for the family.The aim of this Changing Pad study w
Single/Dual-Polarized Infrared Rectenna for Solar Energy Harvesting
Single and dual linearly-polarized receiving mode nanoantennas are designed for solar energy harvesting at 28.3 THz.The infrared rectennas are used to harvest the solar energy and converting it to electrical energy.The proposed infrared rectenna is a thin dipole made of gold and printed on a silicon dioxide substrate.Different shapes of the dipole
Dome-shaped ST-elevation in congenital left ventricular apical diverticulum
Congenital diverticulum of the ventricle is a rare cardiac malformation that causes cardiac abnormalities.The course of this disorder is switch plate variable, and the condition is potentially fatal in some cases.The most effective diagnostic methods for the left ventricular apical diverticulum are various imaging techniques.We Freezer Light Cover
