This invention related generally to the optical arts of holography and diffraction gratings, and, more particularly, to special forms of holograms and diffraction gratings.
Current techniques for making a master hologram or diffraction grating from which replicas can be mass-produced are well known. Briefly, and very generally, two coherent light beams are directed together at a finite angle between them at a photosensitive material surface. An interference pattern between the beams is recorded by the photosensitive material. A photoresist film is commonly used as the photosensitive material, resulting in recording the pattern of interference between the beams as a surface relief pattern.
A desired light pattern can be reconstructed from such a surface relief pattern by diffraction of a portion of illuminating light. If an object is positioned in one of the two interfering beams during exposure of the photosensitive medium, illumination of the surface relief pattern will reconstruct an image of that object in light diffracted by the surface relief pattern when illuminated. For the purposes of this description, the term "hologram" will be used to refer to any such surface relief pattern, or replicas thereof, that is formed as the result of the interference between two coherent light beams, regardless of whether light diffracted from it reconstructs an image of a recognizable object or some other desired light distribution.
Once such a master surface relief hologram is formed, the surface relief pattern is converted to a physically more rugged structure from which replicas can be made. A first step in a usual commercial process is to form a thin layer of nickel by an electrolysis process that conforms to the surface relief pattern. The nickel layer is then mounted on a sturdy support. From this metal master hologram, a number of sub-masters are usually made. Each sub-master replicate of the master surface relief pattern is used to make a large number of copy holograms.
There are two basic techniques being utilized to make hologram replicas. One is an embossing technique wherein the sub-master is urged against thin plastic film under sufficient heat and pressure to transfer the surface relief pattern into a surface of the film. The second technique is a casting process wherein a liquid resin is trapped between the surface relief pattern of a sub-master and a plastic film while the resin is hardened by actinic radiation or other curing technique. When the sub-master and film are separated, a cast surface relief pattern remains attached to the plastic film.
A next step, in both the casting and the embossing replication processes, is to coat the surface relief pattern with a thin layer of opaque, reflective material, usually aluminum. A variation in the sequence of steps for the embossing process is to coat the film with such a reflective layer prior to embossing the surface relief pattern into it. The result for any of these processes is a hologram in which the recorded light pattern is reconstructed in light diffracted in reflection from the coated surface relief pattern. The reflective hologram replica is then attached by lamination or otherwise to a substrate, such as a rigid plastic piece in the case of a credit card using such a hologram for authentication, cardboard in the case of a hologram used in product packaging, or paper in the case of a hologram used as part of a printed document.
Recently, applications have emerged wherein it is desirable that the hologram be only partially reflective so that the hologram may be mounted on a substrate over a photograph, printing and the like that is desired to be authenticated. An example is in the case of passports where such a partially reflective hologram covers at least the passport holder's photograph so that it cannot be removed or altered without destroying the authenticating hologram. The photograph or other material to be authenticated is viewable through the hologram.
One technique for doing this is to maintain a continuous metallized layer on the hologram replica but control its thickness so that it reflects only a portion of illuminating light incident upon it. U.S. patent application Ser. No. 835,524, filed March 3, 1986, of G. O. Searle, now abandoned, describes such a technique. Alternatively, a discontinuous pattern of opaque reflective material is deposited on the surface relief pattern. A hologram image is formed by reflection from the portions of the hologram carrying the reflecting material while a photograph or other material to be protected on a substrate is viewable through the hologram. The discontinuous reflective layer is described in application Ser. Nos. 156,305, filed February 12, 1988, and 160,641, filed February 26, 1988, of Donald W. Mallik. Such partially reflective holograms have also been used in product packaging and other applications where authentication of material on the substrate is not a principal purpose for using the hologram.
It is a primary object of the present invention to provide a hologram replica, combination of a hologram and a substrate, and techniques for making and using them, which are simpler, less costly and which open up a wide range of hologram applications which have not before been practical or possible.

Lesson: How to Make a Hologram

Introduction:
In this lesson, we will learn about the process of making a hologram. A hologram is a three-dimensional image made by interference of light waves. It is an exciting technology that has many applications, including security, art, and entertainment.

Section 1: Understanding Holograms

1.1 What is a hologram?
A hologram is a three-dimensional image made by interference of light waves. It is created by recording the light waves that pass through an object and then reconstructing them with a laser beam.

1.2 How does a hologram work?
A hologram works by recording the light waves that pass through an object on a photosensitive material. This creates a pattern of interference between the light waves. When a laser beam is shone on the hologram, it reconstructs the original light waves, creating a three-dimensional image of the object.

Section 2: Making a Hologram

2.1 Materials needed
- Photosensitive material (such as photoresist film)
- Laser beam
- Object to be holographed
- Developing solution

2.2 Process of making a hologram
1. Place the photosensitive material on a glass plate.
2. Position the object to be holographed in front of one of the interfering beams.
3. Illuminate the photosensitive material with the laser beam and the object simultaneously.
4. Develop the photosensitive material using a developing solution.
5. Remove the glass plate and the photosensitive material from the laser beam.
6. View the hologram using a suitable illumination source.

Section 3: Applications of Holograms

3.1 Security
Holograms are often used as security features on credit cards, passports, and other valuable documents. They are difficult to counterfeit because they are three-dimensional and reflect light like a mirror.

3.2 Art
Holography is also used in art to create unique and beautiful pieces. Artists use holograms to capture movement, color, and texture in a way that is not possible with traditional art forms.

3.3 Entertainment
Holograms are used in entertainment to create realistic images of characters in movies and video games. They are also used in concerts to create the illusion of a live performance by a singer who is not actually present.

Conclusion:
In this lesson, we learned about the process of making a hologram and its applications in security, art, and entertainment. By understanding the science behind holograms, we can appreciate their beauty and usefulness in our daily lives.

The headlines the first few weeks of 2016 weren't kind to Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman:

"What's wrong with Freddie Freeman?"

"Freddie Freeman coming up empty with runners in scoring position"

"Freddie Freeman struggling; hitting coach sees tweaks to be made"

Freeman was hitting below .200 in late April and remained at a lackluster .242/.336/.414 through June 12. Offense was up across the league, but Freeman was putting up the worst numbers of his career and the Braves were an awful 18-44. Braves fans were even starting to turn on the player the team had decided to build the offense around -- the one player retained after 2014's teardown.

Can Freeman do it again? How many home runs will Freddie Freeman hit in 2017? Vote at the bottom of the page »

Freeman then reminded us that it's a long season. He homered and doubled on June 13. He went 4-for-7 with a home run two days later, homered and had three hits the day after that, then had another three-hit game the next day. Two days after that, he had a four-hit game. Over that seven-game spurt, he raised his batting line to .279/.365/.492.

He was just heating up.

In the second half, he had the second-highest wOBA in the majors, behind only Joey Votto, en route to a career-best 34 home runs. And his final numbers -- .302/.400/.569 -- were impressive enough that he placed sixth in the MVP voting even though the Braves finished 26.5 games out of first place.

So the question of the day: Is this a new level of production for Freeman?

After struggling through a 1-for-24 stretch in April, Freeman admitted he was having trouble catching up with fastballs.

"I haven't been loading," Freeman told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. "It's just been kind of stepping into the ball instead of loading and getting my [front] foot down. We've kind of known it was there and trying to work on it."

Freeman's slow start also might have been a lingering effect of a wrist injury he suffered in 2015. While his power surge might simply be credited to better health and increased strength at age 26 (and perhaps some help from the allegedly juiced baseball of 2016 or whatever it was that helped everyone's power numbers), Freeman also got back to hitting the ball to the opposite field more often, as he did in 2013, and with great success:

Freeman to the opposite field Year Avg. wOBA AB/HR Opp Field Opp ISO 2013 .319 .390 24.0 28.3% .304 2014 .288 .374 33.7 22.2% .315 2015 .276 .370 23.1 26.6% .315 2016 .302 .413 17.3 29.6% .500

Freeman always has hit for decent isolated power when he goes to the opposite field, but that figure shot way up in 2016 with an isolated power of .500 on fly balls and line drives compared to .315 the previous two seasons. Twelve of his 34 home runs went to the opposite field, a total that tied for third in the majors behind Miguel Cabrera and Chris Davis.

What's interesting about Freeman's all-field approach in 2016 is that it also came with a career-high strikeout rate. You usually think of hitters with that approach as lower-strikeout guys, compared to sluggers who grip it and rip it and try to pull everything while racking up the whiffs. Freeman ranked 31st out of 146 qualified hitters in percentage of contact to the opposite field, but of those with a higher percentage, only Yasmany Tomas and Kyle Seager were also 30-homer guys.

So that makes Freeman kind of a unique entity. It seems he has learned to sacrifice some contact, but with harder contact when he does connect. As Tony Blengino described him on FanGraphs, "He's a hit-before-power guy with lots of power, squarely in the prime of his career."

Given his age and mature approach, I like Freeman's chances to have another big season -- maybe the BABIP drops a bit, but I think he hits 30-plus home runs again. We don't know how the Braves' new park will play, but Turner Field played as a tough home run park (fifth-lowest home run index in the majors from 2014-2016, according to the Bill James Handbook). SunTrust Park will be 15 feet shorter in the right-center power alley and 5 feet shorter in left-center, so Freeman could receive a few extra home runs there.

I was skeptical of Freeman turning into a big star before last season, but I'm buying this new level. I don't think he's going to get better -- his list of comparable players at Baseball-Reference.com are all guys who maxed out at age 26, with the exception of Jack Clark, who turned into a high-OBP guy in his 30s due to an extremely high walk rate. Freeman's improvement in 2016 suggests a hitter who understands his swing and has fully tapped into his natural power. The Steamer projection system at FanGraphs forecasts a .275/.378/.491 line, but I'm taking the over. That means if the Braves can turn into playoff contenders, Freeman could finish even higher than sixth in the MVP voting.

Lesson: Introduction to Baseball Statistics

### Section 1: What is baseball statistics?
Baseball statistics refers to the collection of data and analysis of performance in the sport of baseball. This includes batting averages, on-base percentages, slugging percentages, earned run averages, and many others. These statistics help to evaluate and compare players, teams, and performances in the game.

### Section 2: Why are baseball statistics important?
Baseball statistics are important because they provide valuable information about the game. They can help coaches and managers make strategic decisions, such as when to substitute players or change pitchers. They can also help players identify areas where they need to improve their performance. Additionally, baseball statistics can be used to compare players across different eras or leagues, providing historical context and helping fans appreciate the game's history.

### Section 3: How are baseball statistics calculated?
There are many different types of baseball statistics, each calculated in its own way. For example, batting average is calculated by dividing the number of successful at-bats (hits, walks, and sacrifices) by the total number of at-bats. On-base percentage is calculated by adding the number of times a player reaches first base (via hit, walk, or being hit by a pitch) to the number of times he is hitless and reaches base safely (via error or passed ball), and then dividing that sum by the number of plate appearances. Earned run average is calculated by adding the number of earned runs a pitcher allows to the number of unearned runs (which are caused by fielding errors) and then dividing that sum by the number of innings pitched.

### Section 4: Practice Questions
1. What is the formula for calculating on-base percentage?
2. How does a high on-base percentage indicate a player's value to the team?
3. What is the difference between earned run average and batting average?

### Glossary
- Batting Average: The number of hits divided by the number of at-bats.
- On-Base Percentage: The percentage of time a batter reaches first base via hit, walk, or being hit by a pitch.
- Slugging Percentage: The number of bases a player advances per at-bat, including hits, walks, and sacrifices.
- Earned Run Average: The average number of earned runs a pitcher allows per nine innings.

### Conclusion
Baseball statistics provide valuable information about the game, helping coaches, managers, players, and fans understand performance and make informed decisions. By learning about different types of baseball statistics and how they are calculated, you can become a more knowledgeable fan and better understand the game.

Saint Regulus

Saint Regulus or Saint Rule (Old Irish: Riagal) was a legendary 4th century monk or bishop of Patras, Greece who in AD 345 is said to have fled to Scotland with the bones of Saint Andrew, and deposited them at St Andrews. His feast day in the Aberdeen Breviary is 17 October.

Biography

The details of Saint Regulus' life are unclear and differ in the several extant accounts. Saint Regulus was a monk or bishop of the city of Patras, in present-day Greece, then part of the Roman Empire. In AD 345 Regulus was told by an angel in a visionary dream that the Emperor Constantine had decided to remove Saint Andrew's relics from Patras to Constantinople, and in some retellings that Constantine was about to invade Patras. For safekeeping Regulus was to move as many bones as far away as he could to the western ends of the earth, where he should found a church dedicated to St Andrew. He was accompanied on his voyage by a number of consecrated virgins, among these Saint Triduana.

According to the various accounts Regulus was either shipwrecked or told by an angel to stop intentionally on the shores of Fife at the spot called Kilrymont, a Pictish settlement which is now St. Andrews. Here he was welcomed by a Pictish king, Óengus I (who was actually of the eighth century). Regulus is claimed to have brought three fingers of the saint's right hand, the upper bone of an arm, one kneecap, and one of his teeth.

Legacy
In approximately 1070 Robert I, Prior of St Andrews built St Regulus Church in the town of St Andrews in order to house the relics of St Andrew that Regulus had supposedly brought to the town. It would serve as a landmark for the many pilgrims that would come to the area in the next few centuries. Its main architectural feature is its 33 metre tall tower, and the church itself is now principally known in the town as St Rule's tower.

The legend of St Regulus came to have political significance in the later Middle Ages. It served to authenticate the apostle Andrew as patron saint of Scotland. The Regulus legend was publicised by Scottish kings, nobles and churchmen from the 12th century onwards. Scottish independence had come under threat from England since the late 11th century, and the Scottish church was contesting a claim to primacy by the archbishop of York. By promoting the story of Saint Andrew's choice of Scotland in the 4th century, the Scots acquired an important saint, a separate identity from England, and a date for the supposed foundation of the Scottish Church which predated the foundation of the English and Irish churches by several centuries. Furthermore, during the wars of Scottish independence the Scots used the legend to persuade Pope Boniface VIII to issue the papal bull of 1299 which demanded that Edward I of England end the war against Scotland. The legend would also lead to the adoption of the saltire on the Scottish flag and the importance of the archdiocese of St Andrews in the early Scottish Church.

St Regulus Hall, the student hall of residence at the University of St Andrews is named after Saint Regulus.

Health care is a complex process that involves many different professionals working together to provide care to patients. In this lesson, we will learn about the different stages of health care processes and decision making.

## Section 2: Understanding the Health Care Process

The health care process can be broken down into several stages:

1. Diagnosis - This is the stage where doctors and other health care professionals gather information about a patient's symptoms and medical history to determine what is causing their illness or injury.

2. Treatment - Once a diagnosis has been made, health care professionals will develop a treatment plan to help the patient recover. This may involve medication, therapy, or surgery.

3. Follow-up - After a patient has completed their treatment, they will typically have follow-up appointments with their health care provider to monitor their progress and ensure that they are recovering properly.

## Section 3: Decision Making in Health Care

Decision making is an important part of health care processes. Health care professionals must make decisions about which treatments are best for each patient based on their individual needs and circumstances.

1. What factors should be considered when making decisions about a patient's care?
- The patient's medical history and current condition
- The potential benefits and risks of different treatments
- The patient's preferences and values
- The available resources and constraints

2. How can patients be involved in decision making about their own care?
- Patients can be informed about their options and encouraged to ask questions and provide feedback.
- They can be involved in discussions about their treatment goals and preferences.
- They can be given information about the risks and benefits of different treatments so that they can make informed decisions.

## Glossary

- Health care process: The series of steps that health care providers take to diagnose and treat illnesses or injuries.
- Decision making: The process of choosing between different options or courses of action.
- Treatment plan: A detailed plan outlining the medical care that a patient will receive.
- Follow-up: A check-in with a health care provider after a patient has completed their treatment to monitor their progress.

## Conclusion

In this lesson, we learned about the different stages of the health care process and the importance of decision making in providing quality care to patients. By understanding these concepts, we can better appreciate the complexity of health care and the challenges that health care professionals face in providing effective and compassionate care.

Lesson: Introduction to Management of Vocational Training Centers

## Section 1: Theoretical Concepts

In this lesson, we will learn about the management of vocational training centers. We will cover the following concepts:

- **What is a vocational training center?** A vocational training center is a place where people learn a trade or skill that will help them get a job. These centers are usually run by professionals who have experience in the field.
- **Why is management important in vocational training centers?** Management is important because it helps ensure that the center runs smoothly and efficiently. It involves planning, organizing, directing, and controlling the activities of the center to achieve its goals.
- **What are some key aspects of managing a vocational training center?** Some key aspects include finance management, staff management, student management, and resource management.

## Section 2: Practical Examples

Now let's look at some practical examples of how these concepts apply in real life:

- **Finance management**: One of the most important aspects of managing a vocational training center is finance management. This involves keeping track of income and expenses, creating budgets, and making sure that the center is profitable. For example, if a center is spending more money than it is earning, it may need to cut back on expenses or find ways to increase revenue.
- **Staff management**: Another important aspect of managing a vocational training center is staff management. This involves hiring and training employees, setting performance goals, and providing feedback and support to help them improve. For example, if a teacher is struggling with a particular topic, the center's manager may provide additional resources or training to help them better teach the subject.
- **Student management**: Student management is also an important aspect of managing a vocational training center. This involves creating a safe and supportive learning environment, tracking student progress, and addressing any issues that arise. For example, if a student is struggling with a particular topic, the center's staff may provide additional support or tutoring to help them improve.
- **Resource management**: Finally, resource management is another important aspect of managing a vocational training center. This involves making sure that the center has the necessary equipment, materials, and facilities to provide quality education and training. For example, if a center is lacking certain equipment, it may need to invest in new tools or machinery to better serve its students.

## Section 3: Self-Debating Discussions

Now let's engage in a self-debating discussion to further explore the importance of management in vocational training centers:

**Question:** Why is management important in vocational training centers?

**Answer:** Management is important because it helps ensure that the center runs smoothly and efficiently. It involves planning, organizing, directing, and controlling the activities of the center to achieve its goals. Without good management, a center may struggle to provide quality education and training, which can ultimately affect the success of its students.

**Debate:** On one hand, some people may argue that management is not as important as other aspects of running a vocational training center, such as curriculum development or teacher training. They may believe that as long as the center has qualified instructors and a relevant curriculum, everything else will fall into place.

On the other hand, others may argue that management is crucial to the success of a vocational training center. They may believe that without proper planning, organization, and control, even the best curriculum and teachers will not be able to achieve their full potential.

**Conclusion:** Ultimately, both sides have valid points. While it is true that a strong curriculum and qualified teachers are essential to a center's success, good management practices can help ensure that these resources are used effectively and efficiently. By taking a systematic approach to managing a vocational training center, administrators can create an environment that supports student learning and growth.

## Glossary

- **Vocational training center:** A place where people learn a trade or skill that will help them get a job.
- **Management:** The process of organizing and coordinating the activities of a business or organization to achieve its goals.
- **Finance management:** The process of managing financial resources, including budgeting, accounting, and investment.
- **Staff management:** The process of overseeing and guiding employees to achieve optimal performance.
- **Student management:** The process of monitoring and supporting students to ensure a positive learning environment.
- **Resource management:** The process of acquiring and allocating resources, including equipment, materials, and facilities, to achieve organizational goals.

I’ve shown here some of those functions I have developed and your are free to use them wherever you’d like.. All I ask in return is that if you do use one of them, please give me credit for having written the code with something like this in the credits section above the function code:. /** * @author: Chris Anderson — c h r i s @ c l a b s c o . c o m * @author URL: */

## Lesson: Functions in Programming

In programming, a function is a block of code that performs a specific task or operation. Functions can be used to simplify complex programs by breaking them down into smaller, more manageable pieces. This allows programmers to reuse code and make changes more easily.

**Theoretical Concepts**

1. What is a function in programming?
2. Why are functions useful in programming?
3. How does a function work?

**Practical Examples**

1. Let's say you want to create a program that calculates the area of a circle. Instead of writing out the formula for the area of a circle every time you need it, you can create a function that calculates the area for you. Here is an example of a function in Python that calculates the area of a circle:

```python
import math

def area_of_circle(radius):
    area = math.pi * radius ** 2
    return area
```

2. Now let's say you want to create a program that sorts a list of numbers in ascending order. Instead of writing out the algorithm for sorting every time you need it, you can create a function that sorts the list for you. Here is an example of a function in Python that sorts a list of numbers:

```python
def sort_list(numbers):
    sorted_list = sorted(numbers)
    return sorted_list
```

**Definitions and Purpose**

1. Function: A function is a block of code that performs a specific task or operation. Functions can be used to simplify complex programs by breaking them down into smaller, more manageable pieces.

2. Why are functions useful in programming?: Functions are useful in programming because they allow programmers to reuse code and make changes more easily. By breaking down complex programs into smaller functions, programmers can focus on specific tasks instead of trying to solve everything at once.

3. How does a function work?: A function works by taking in input parameters (also known as arguments) and returning a result based on those inputs. The input parameters are usually passed to the function when the function is called. Once the inputs are received, the function performs its task and returns the result.

**Self-Debating Discussion**

1. Can you think of any other reasons why functions are useful in programming?
2. How might functions be used in real-world scenarios?

**Glossary**

- Function: A block of code that performs a specific task or operation.
- Algorithm: A set of instructions for solving a problem or completing a task.
- Sorting: The process of arranging objects in a particular order.

**Conclusion**

In this lesson, we learned about functions in programming and how they can be used to simplify complex programs. We also explored the practical examples of using functions to calculate the area of a circle and sort a list of numbers. By understanding the theoretical concepts and practical applications of functions, we can apply these skills to new problems and challenges in programming.

Evaluating Chemotherapy-induced Nausea and Vomiting and Food Intake in Patients With Gynecologic Cancer.
Treatments for controlling delayed nausea after chemotherapy are inadequate, potentially inciting malnutrition. We sought to determine the incidence of nausea, anorexia, and food intake after chemotherapy. Subjects were females with gynecological cancers who underwent chemotherapy between 2008 and 2013. Nausea, anorexia, and food intake in the acute (day 1) and delayed phases (days 2 and 3) were retrospectively evaluated. Subjects included 156 females. Chemotherapies were highly (HEC; n=24) and moderately emetogenic (MEC; n=132). There were no significant between-group differences for anorexia control during either the acute or the delayed phase and both groups demonstrated significantly worse control of nausea during the delayed phase. In the HEC group, food intake was significantly reduced on days 2 and 3 compared with day 1. Rates of nausea, anorexia, and food intake significantly worsened over time, particularly in the MEC group. Current supportive therapies appear inadequate and should be improved.

Film credits are an essential part of any movie, providing information about the people who worked on the film and the companies involved in its production and distribution. In this lesson, we will learn about the different types of film credits and their significance in the film industry.

Section 1: Types of Film Credits
There are several types of film credits, including:

1. Cast: This lists the actors who appeared in the film.
2. Crew: This includes the people who worked behind the scenes, such as the director, cinematographer, and editor.
3. Production and Distribution: These credits list the companies involved in the production and distribution of the film, such as the studio and the distributor.

Section 2: Understanding Film Credits
Film credits provide important information about the film's production and distribution. They also help to recognize the contributions of the individuals and companies involved in the film's creation. Additionally, film credits can provide insight into the film's genre, style, and themes.

Section 3: Practical Examples
Let's take a look at an example of film credits:

Actors (4). Production and distribution (2). Co-production :. Les Toiles du Cosmos Productions. Foreign production companies :. Synopsis. Marrakesh, nowadays. Majid, almost indifferent to the world that surrounds him, lives only for his job, projectionist. But the theatre in which he works is going to close. While waiting for the last session, Majid roams in the city.. Photos (2). Full credits (13). Executive Producer :. Line producer :. Foreign producer :. Directors of Photography :. Said Slimani, Med Amine Assili. Assistant Operator :. Sound Editor :. Music Composer :. Assistant Director :. Screenwriter :. Co-producers :. Hugo Lagorce, Emma Legendre

In this example, we can see that there are four actors listed in the "Actors" section. The "Production and Distribution" section lists two production companies and two distribution companies. The "Co-production" section lists Les Toiles du Cosmos Productions as the co-production company. The "Foreign production companies" section lists additional production companies involved in the film's creation.

Glossary:
- Cast: The group of actors who appear in a film.
- Crew: The people who work behind the scenes on a film, including the director, cinematographer, and editor.
- Production and Distribution: The companies involved in the production and distribution of a film.

Conclusion:
Understanding film credits is an essential part of appreciating film as an art form. By studying film credits, we can gain insight into the individuals and companies involved in a film's creation, as well as the film's genre, style, and themes. By applying these concepts to other films, we can develop a deeper understanding of the film industry and its history.

The Israeli embassy in Cairo has expressed gratitude for an Egyptian writer’s controversial remarks about the status of Jerusalem.

The embassy was referring to an interview that was broadcast on Sunday, in which Youssef Ziedan, an Egyptian novelist and scholar, said that the al-Aqsa mosque is not located in Jerusalem’s al-Haram al-Sharif compound and that Jerusalem is not a holy city.

In a local televised appearance, Ziedan also laid blame on Arab and Israeli leaders, accusing them of repeatedly exploiting Jerusalem as a battleground that has claimed the lives of hundreds of thousands of people.

In response, the embassy said on Tuesday in a statement posted on its Facebook page: “We are pleased to hear the words of writer and historian Youssef Ziedan and his description of the deep-rooted relationship between Jews and Muslims that existed even before Prophet Muhammad, may peace be upon him.”

“And at how he pointed out that the origins of the ongoing conflict between the two sides stem from extremists,” the statement added.

“There is no doubt that Ziedan’s interpretation entails the need to abandon the culture of hate between the two sides, and this in our view is an important message. Cooperation between Jews and Muslims would benefit Egyptians and Israelis and would be beneficial to the two sides’ rising generations.”

Ziedan comments, on a widely watched talk show viewed by Egyptians and Arabs across the region, came as Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, East Jerusalem and Gaza Strip are protesting a US decision to recognise Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.

The status of Jerusalem is extremely sensitive and is one of the main sticking points in efforts to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Palestinians consider East Jerusalem as the occupied capital of their future state, while Israel claims all of Jerusalem as its capital.

Citing scholars, Ziedan said that the structures of al-Haram Mosque and al-Aqsa Mosque were “on the road from Mecca to Ta’if” and that “neither we [Muslims] nor the [Jews] have anything to do with it”.

US President Trump’s announcement that he would be moving his country’s embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem prompted international condemnation and widespread protests across the world.

Last week, the United Nations General Assembly passed a non-binding resolution that declared Trump’s move “null and void”.

Demonstrations in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem have been met with the use of force by Israeli forces. In the Gaza Strip, Israel launched several air raids.

Since Trump’s announcement, at least 15 people have been killed across the occupied Palestinian territories, more than 2,900 people injured and over 500 jailed.

Strecker stent migration to the pulmonary artery: long-term result of a "wait-and-see attitude".
Accidental dislodgement of an endoprosthesis into the right cavities or the pulmonary artery is a rarely described complication of percutaneous venous stenting. In such cases the migrated stent needs to be promptly extracted by percutaneous techniques in order to avoid any major complication. We report the first case of a delayed Strecker stent migration from the left innominate vein into the right pulmonary artery, successfully managed with anticoagulant therapy and a "wait-and-see" attitude. The advanced stage-disease (metastatic cancer patient) and the large-caliber stent in a disease-free pulmonary artery led us to adopt this unorthodox attitude, as compared with the current clinical practice.

Lesson Title: Understanding Medical Terms and Conditions

Introduction:
In this lesson, we will learn about medical terms and conditions related to cardiovascular diseases. We will focus on understanding the meaning of these terms, their significance, and how they are treated.

Section 1: What is Cardiovascular Disease?
Cardiovascular disease refers to conditions that affect the heart and blood vessels. These conditions can lead to serious complications such as heart attacks, strokes, and even death. Some common types of cardiovascular diseases include coronary artery disease, hypertension, and congenital heart defects.

Section 2: Understanding Medical Terms
- Strecker stent: A type of stent used to treat blockages in the veins.
- Migration: The movement of an object from one place to another.
- Pulmonary artery: A blood vessel that carries oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the lungs.
- Endoprosthesis: A device implanted surgically to replace or support a damaged or missing part of the body.
- Percutaneous: Relating to or being a procedure performed through the skin.
- Venous: Relating to or being a vein.
- Anticoagulant: A substance that prevents blood clotting.
- Thrombosis: The formation of a blood clot in a blood vessel.

Section 3: Case Study
A patient with metastatic cancer underwent percutaneous venous stenting to relieve symptoms caused by a blockage in the left innominate vein. However, after the procedure, the stent migrated to the pulmonary artery. The patient was managed with anticoagulant therapy, and the stent remained in place without causing any complications.

Discussion:
This case highlights the importance of understanding medical terms and conditions related to cardiovascular diseases. It also demonstrates the value of a "wait-and-see" attitude in certain situations where immediate intervention may not be necessary.

Conclusion:
In this lesson, we have learned about cardiovascular diseases, medical terms, and conditions related to these diseases. We have also discussed a case study that illustrates the importance of understanding medical terminology and conditions. By applying these concepts, we can better understand and manage cardiovascular diseases in the future.

Long Pearl Necklace

The image that first comes to my mind when I think of a long freshwater pearl necklace is those girls in the 1920’s (flappers I think they were called) dancing away to the Charleston with their long necklaces swinging away around their necks.

While we do have long pearl necklaces that fit this picture perfectly, we also stock a large choice of other kinds of long pearl necklace in much more modern styles, like our baroque and oval pearl necklaces, bridal pearl necklaces, and rope necklaces in green, pink, turquoise, or blue to name but a few colours.

Our long pearl necklaces start from just £32 and come with a presentation box or jewellery bag.

Lesson: Introduction to Long Pearl Necklaces

## Section 1: Theoretical Concepts

A long pearl necklace is a type of jewelry that consists of multiple strands of pearls arranged in a linear pattern. These necklaces can vary in length and style, but they are typically designed to be worn around the neck. In this lesson, we will explore the history and design of long pearl necklaces, as well as the materials used to make them.

## Section 2: Practical Examples

Long pearl necklaces have been popular for centuries, but they became especially fashionable during the 1920s. This was a time when women were embracing a more modern and independent lifestyle, and they wanted jewelry that reflected their newfound freedom. The long pearl necklace became a symbol of elegance and sophistication, and it remains a timeless classic today.

To create a long pearl necklace, a jeweler must first select the appropriate pearls. These can be round, baroque, oval, or any other shape. The pearls are then strung together on a thread or wire, with each pearl carefully attached to the next. The length of the necklace can vary depending on the desired look, but it is usually measured in inches or centimeters.

## Section 3: Self-Debating Discussions

One of the most important aspects of a long pearl necklace is its design. Should the pearls be arranged in a straight line or in a more random pattern? Should the necklace be made of one type of pearl or a mix of different colors and shapes? These are just a few of the questions that a jeweler must consider when creating a long pearl necklace.

Another important consideration is the quality of the pearls themselves. High-quality pearls are smooth and lustrous, while lower-quality pearls may be dull or misshapen. The price of a long pearl necklace can vary widely depending on the quality of the pearls used.

## Glossary

- Pearl: A hard, shiny object produced within the soft tissue of a living animal, often found inside mollusks like oysters and clams.
- Strand: A group of pearls that are connected by a single thread or wire.
- Jeweler: A person who designs, makes, or repairs jewelry.
- Luster: The brightness and reflection of light on the surface of a pearl.
- Quality: The overall appearance and value of a pearl.

## Conclusion

Long pearl necklaces are a beautiful and timeless piece of jewelry that can be worn for any occasion. By understanding the history and design of these necklaces, as well as the materials used to make them, we can appreciate their beauty and craftsmanship even more. Whether you prefer a classic white pearl necklace or a more modern design, there is a long pearl necklace out there for everyone.
