In this episode, Burns seemed like a good-hearted soul for once, taking in dozens of puppies only to eventually reveal his true intentions- killing them for their fur- in song. P.S., you have a lot of explaining to do for Crash.and please not Avatar this year. Since this first appeared in 1995, the electric car is up and Steve Guttenberg is down. Still, the fact that Buffett can pump a loser bar band for cash even in 2030 is proof enough that Matt Groening respects his conglomerate. Despite what Bart claims during his stage banter preceding his "slyly" derivative "Daquiritaville", Jimmy Buffett covers are very much alive anywhere in Dixie where cheap alcohol is served to kids with questionable fake IDs. Judging from the Ivy League in-jokes made by the Simpsons' writing team over the past two decades, I'm imagining very few went to schools in the South. Not that you can't replay these in your head by now.) (Note: As any fan of the show could tell you, the people behind "The Simpsons" are freaking all-stars at keeping their stuff off of YouTube, so the clips here are cobbled together to say the least. And, no, "Do the Bartman" didn't come close. As the show celebrates its 20th anniversary this month, we took a look at our favorites. But while the cameos have often generated the most interest, there's no shortage of homages, original musical numbers, and inside jokes- under the baton of the amazing Alf Clausen- that have proven to be the highlights of the greatest sitcom (animated or not) in television history. So have U2, the Who, the Rolling Stones, Elvis Costello, Sonic Youth, the White Stripes, the Smashing Pumpkins, the Ramones, Tito Puente, and of course, Peter Frampton, Cypress Hill, Kid Rock, Phish, and Britney Spears. Every living Beatle has been on the show. Led Zeppelin aside, you are not a musical legend if you've not been on the Simpsons.

Moreover, it appears that people who are fit yet have other risk factors for cardiovascular disease (see Fig. 30 These relative risks are similar to those for hypertension, hypercholesterolemia and obesity, and they approach those associated with moderate cigarette smoking. Physically inactive middle-aged women (engaging in less than 1 hour of exercise per week) experienced a 52% increase in all-cause mortality, a doubling of cardiovascular-related mortality and a 29% increase in cancer-related mortality compared with physically active women. 29 Furthermore, an increase in energy expenditure from physical activity of 1000 kcal (4200 kJ) per week or an increase in physical fitness of 1 MET (metabolic equivalent) was associated with a mortality benefit of about 20%. For instance, being fit or active was associated with a greater than 50% reduction in risk. Recent investigations have revealed even greater reductions in the risk of death from any cause and from cardiovascular disease. 6, 20–26īoth men and women who reported increased levels of physical activity and fitness were found to have reductions in relative risk (by about 20%–35% 27, 28) of death (see Appendix 2, available at For example, in a study involving healthy middle-aged men and women followed up for 8 years, the lowest quintiles of physical fitness, as measured on an exercise treadmill, were associated with an increased risk of death from any cause compared with the top quintile for fitness (relative risk among men 3.4, 95% confidence interval 2.0 to 5.8, and among women 4.7, 95% CI 2.2 to 9.8). Since the seminal work of Morris and colleagues in the 1950s 16, 17 and the early work of Paffenbarger and colleagues in the 1970s, 18, 19 there have been numerous long-term prospective follow-up studies (mainly involving men but more recently women also) that have assessed the relative risk of death from any cause and from specific diseases (e.g., carciovascular disease) associated with physical inactivity. We also have included important new findings regarding the relation between physical activity and fitness and all-cause and cardiovascular-related mortality. Using our best judgment, we selected individual studies that were frequently included in systematic reviews, consensus statements and meta-analyses and considered them as examples of the best evidence available. Some of the most commonly cited cohorts have been described in different studies over time as more data accumulate (see Appendix 2, available online at In this review, we searched the literature using the key words “physical activity,” “health,” “health status,” “fitness,” “exercise,” “chronic disease,” “mortality” and disease-specific terms (e.g., “cardiovascular disease,” “cancer,” “diabetes” and “osteoporosis”). These evaluations are often overlapping (reviewing the same evidence). Several authors have attempted to summarize the evidence in systematic reviews and meta-analyses. 28 issue, we will review how to evaluate the health-related physical fitness and activity levels of patients and will provide exercise recommendations for health. In a companion paper, to be published in the Mar. (A glossary of terms related to the topic appears in Appendix 1). We also discuss the evidence relating to physical fitness and musculoskeletal fitness and briefly describe the independent effects of frequency and intensity of physical activity. 15 In this article we review the current evidence relating to physical activity in the primary and secondary prevention of premature death from any cause, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, some cancers and osteoporosis. 1–14 The prevalence of physical inactivity (among 51% of adult Canadians) is higher than that of all other modifiable risk factors. Physical inactivity is a modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease and a widening variety of other chronic diseases, including diabetes mellitus, cancer (colon and breast), obesity, hypertension, bone and joint diseases (osteoporosis and osteoarthritis), and depression.

There are several more tropical species such as the Ti plant, Cordyline fruticosa, that are grown indoors or in frost free locations but the plants that most California gardeners are familiar with are the more hardy New Zealand species. The name Cordyline comes from the Greek word kordyle, meaning "club," a reference to the enlarged underground stems or rhizomes. We currently list Cordyline with the visually similar Dracaena in the Dracaenaceae. The genus, until recently, has been placed in the Lily (Liliaceae) or Agave (Agavaceae) families but currently, and depending on the author, it is listed in the Asteliaceae, Liliaceae, Laxmaniaceae, Lomandraceae or Dracaenaceae. The genus Cordyline includes 15 species of woody to semi-woody monocotyledonous flowering plants found in the western South Pacific north to India. Avoid bottom watering when using a pebble tray, as it may cause roots to stay too wet and rot.Cordyline Pink Stripe Sport at San Marcos Growers If you use medium-sized pebbles, the plant should not be able to get water through the drain hole. Fill a shallow container with pebbles and then add water. The tray doesn’t have to hold the plant, but it can. A pebble tray is a simple and inexpensive way to provide humidity. One thing to consider is providing humidity while your heat is drying the air. Water sparingly, as the plant will likely be dormant. Red Star Dracaena care is limited throughout the winter months.

Anti breaking system Ankur Pandey 2.1K views. This helps a driver maintain control of a vehicle when braking in low grip situations. Anti-Lock Braking System is a electronic system that monitor and control wheel speed during braking. Recent versions not only prevent wheel lock under braking, but also electronically control the front-to-rear brake bias. In simple terms, ABS uses electronics to detect and prevent wheel lock up. When your wheels stop turning but your car is still moving too fast, you start to skid, and skidding causes you to lose. Since initial widespread use in production cars, anti-lock braking systems have evolved considerably. An anti-lock brake system, ABS, is a system which is designed to prevent you from locking up your brakes, or applying so much pressure to your brakes that the axle and your wheels themselves stop turning completely. ABS generally offers improved vehicle control and decreases stopping distances on dry and slippery surfaces for many drivers however, on loose surfaces like gravel or snow-covered pavement, ABS can significantly increase braking distance, although still improving vehicle control. It does this at a much faster rate and with better control than a driver could manage. The tone wheel is a vital component of your anti-lock brake system (ABS). It is an automated system that uses the principles of threshold braking and cadence braking which were practiced by skillful drivers with previous generation braking systems. OBD II fault code C0031 is a generic code that is defined as Left Front Wheel. Anti-lock braking system Anti-lock braking system is an automobile safety system that allows the wheels on a motor vehicle to maintain tractive contact with the road surface according to driver inputs while braking, preventing the wheels from locking up and avoiding uncontrolled skidding. X:\General Assembly\test.py), make sure your Command Prompt is in the same directory as your Python script file. To avoid using the full file path to your script (i.e. To run a script, use the py command to specify the Python interpreter followed by the name of the script you want to run with the interpreter. However, the version of the default Python interpreter isn’t always consistent, so it’s best to always run your scripts as explicitly as possible. py extension is registered to run a script file with that extension using the Python interpreter. For Windows, you can just provide an option like -2.7 to run version 2.7. You can also specify the version of Python you’d like to run. Using the Command Prompt, you can use the -V option to print out the version. The default Python interpreter is referenced on Windows using the command py. Print(“Aw yeah!”)' How to Run a Python Script on Windows Our Test Scriptįor our examples, we’re going to start by using this simple script called test.py. For these examples, we’re assuming that both Python 2.7 and Python 3.5 are installed. To run a script, we have to point the Python interpreter at our Python code…but how do we do that? There are a few different ways, and there are some differences between how Windows and Linux/Mac operating systems do things. Run a script using the Python interpreter It’s important to always know which Python version is compatible with your Python code. Sometimes they’re dramatically different. The major Python version you’ll likely see is Python 2 or Python 3, but there are sub-versions (i.e. It’s critical to point out that there are different versions of the Python interpreter. Different Versions of the Python Interpreter So to run Python code, all you have to do is point the interpreter at your code. Since it’s an interpreted programming language, each line of human-readable code is passed to an interpreter that converts it to machine code at run time. Traditional programming languages like C/C++ are compiled, meaning that before it can be run, the human-readable code is passed into a compiler (special program) to generate machine code – a series of bytes providing specific instructions to specific types of processors. Python is an interpreted programming language, meaning Python code must be run using the Python interpreter. As a blooming Python developer who has just written some Python code, you’re immediately faced with the important question, “how do I run it?” Before answering that question, let’s back up a little to cover one of the fundamental elements of Python. |
