D. Puerto Rico
AFFIRMED.
Before TORRUELLA, Chief Judge, STAHL and LYNCH, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM

1
Eduardo Robinson-Munoz and Abel Rojas appeal from the district court's summary denial of their motions under 28 U.S.C. § 2255.   We affirm.

I. Robinson

2
Robinson challenges his conviction after a jury trial of aiding and abetting the possession, with intent to distribute, of marijuana aboard a vessel, 46 U.S.C.App. § 1903(a), (c)(1)(A) & 18 U.S.C. § 2.  Specifically, he argues that the vessel ("the Delfin") was not subject to United States jurisdiction because it was not "a vessel without nationality."   We rejected that argument on direct appeal.   In United States v. Robinson-Munoz, 961 F.2d 300 (1st Cir.1992), we held that the government's presentation of a certification of the Secretary of State indicating that the Colombian government had denied the Delfin captain's claim of Colombian registry "prove[d] jurisdiction beyond a reasonable doubt."  Id. at 305.   Robinson again challenged the United States' jurisdiction over the Delfin in his first § 2255 motion.   The district court ruled that the issue had already been decided on direct appeal and could not be relitigated under § 2255.  Robinson-Munoz v. United States, 819 F.Supp. 1136, 1142 (D. Puerto Rico 1993).

3
In his second § 2255 motion, Robinson relied upon new evidence to challenge the United States' jurisdiction over the Delfin.   Specifically, Robinson relied upon a letter dated May 10, 1993 from the Secretary General of the Colombian Department of National Defense ("the May 10, 1993 letter").   The letter stated, in relevant part, as follows:

4
having reviewed the files of the General Command of the Armed forces and of the National Navy, no document whatsoever was found, of authorization for the boarding of the motor vessel "DELFIN" on the 13th of October, 1990.

5
Robinson appeals from the district court's summary dismissal of his second § 2255 motion.   On appeal, he seeks to introduce yet more new evidence to show that the certification of the Secretary of State was fraudulently prepared (i.e., no denial of registry was ever given by the Colombian government) and, therefore, that the Due Process Clause requires that his conviction and sentence be vacated.   We affirm.

6
The district court did not err in dismissing the motion without holding an evidentiary hearing.   A " § 2255 motion may be denied without a hearing as to those allegations which, if accepted as true, entitle the movant to no relief, or which need not be accepted as true because they state conclusions instead of facts, contradict the record, or are 'inherently incredible.' "  Shraiar v. United States, 736 F.2d 817, 818 (1st Cir.1984) (citations omitted).   In addition, "when, as in this case, a petition for federal habeas relief is presented to the judge who presided at the petitioner's trial, the judge is at liberty to employ the knowledge gleaned during previous proceedings and make findings based thereon without convening an additional hearing."  United States v. McGill, 11 F.3d 223, 225 (1st Cir.1993).

7
The relevant evidence before the district court when it ruled upon the § 2255 motions consisted of the May 10, 1993 letter.   At most, that letter indicates that the Colombian authorities never gave the Coast Guard officials permission to board the Delfin.   Even accepting the truth of that statement, it does not entitle Robinson to relief.   In this case, jurisdiction was based upon the Colombian government's denial of registry.   The denial of registry was proved by a certification by the Secretary of State.   The May 10, 1993 letter does not even contradict, much less disprove, the statements made in the certification.

8
The document that appellants sought to introduce as "Supplemental Pleadings on Appeal"--a letter dated February 8, 1996, in which the Colombian authorities denied the existence of a General Rodriguez at the time that he allegedly denied registry--was never before the district court.   The argument that it constitutes newly discovered evidence and establishes a violation of the Due Process Clause entitling Robinson to § 2255 relief cannot be raised for the first time on appeal.  "It is a bedrock rule that when a party has not presented an argument to the district court, she may not unveil it in the court of appeals."  United States v. Slade, 980 F.2d 27, 30 (1st Cir.1992).  (Appellants' reliance upon Fed.R.Civ.P. 15(d) is misplaced because they do not seek to supplement a pleading but to introduce new evidence in support of a § 2255 motion on appeal.)  "[A]ppellate courts retain the power to dispense with the raise-or-waive rule in order to avoid a gross miscarriage of justice."  Slade, 980 F.2d at 31.   This is not such a case, however.   Robinson has failed to demonstrate that the new evidence "is 'so compelling as virtually to insure appellant's success.' "  Id. at 31.

II. Rojas

9
Rojas pled guilty and has never contested the validity of his guilty plea.   We note initially that although the issue is not free from doubt, "the better view may be that a valid guilty plea, as 'an admission of all the elements of a formal criminal charge,' admits even those allegations which form the factual predicate for federal jurisdiction."  Valencia v. United States, 923 F.2d 917, 921 (1st Cir.1991).   We need not resolve that issue here, however, because even if we assume that Rojas did not waive the jurisdictional challenge by pleading guilty, he has failed to show that the district court erred in denying his § 2255 motion.

10
In his § 2255 motion, Rojas makes the same claims and relies upon the same new evidence as did Robinson in his motion.   The new evidence--the May 10, 1993 letter--submitted with Rojas' § 2255 motion did not disprove, or even contradict, denial of registry, however.   Accordingly, the district court did not err in summarily dismissing the motion.   Rojas, like Robinson, also seeks relief on the basis of the February 8, 1996 letter.   For the same reasons that the late-submitted evidence did not entitle Robinson to relief under § 2255, it is of no avail to Rojas.

11
The district court's summary dismissals of the motions are affirmed.

Title: Understanding the Legal System in the United States

Lesson 1: Introduction to the Legal System

I. Overview of the Legal System

The legal system in the United States is complex and consists of several levels of government. In this lesson, we will explore the structure of the legal system, including the federal and state courts, and the roles of various actors within the system.

II. Federal and State Courts

The legal system in the United States is divided between federal and state courts. Federal courts hear cases involving federal law or disputes between states, while state courts hear cases involving state law or disputes within a particular state.

III. Actors Within the Legal System

There are several actors within the legal system, including judges, prosecutors, defense attorneys, and litigants. Judges are responsible for presiding over trials and making decisions based on the law. Prosecutors represent the government in criminal cases and work to prove that the defendant committed a crime. Defense attorneys represent defendants in criminal cases and work to prove their innocence. Litigants are individuals or organizations involved in legal proceedings.

IV. Conclusion

Understanding the legal system in the United States is essential for navigating the complexities of our society. By understanding the structure of the legal system and the roles of various actors, we can better understand how the law works and how it affects us.

Lesson: Understanding Government Expenditure on Healthcare

Introduction:
Healthcare is an essential aspect of human life. Governments around the world spend a considerable amount of money on healthcare services to ensure that citizens have access to quality healthcare. In this lesson, we will learn about government expenditure on healthcare, its importance, and how it varies among different states in India.

Section 1: Understanding Government Expenditure on Healthcare

Topic 1: What is government expenditure on healthcare?
Government expenditure on healthcare refers to the amount of money that the government spends on providing healthcare services to its citizens. This includes expenses such as building hospitals, buying medical equipment, paying salaries of healthcare workers, and providing free or subsidized healthcare services to the poor.

Topic 2: Why is government expenditure on healthcare important?
Government expenditure on healthcare is crucial because it ensures that every citizen has access to quality healthcare services. When the government invests in healthcare, it reduces the financial burden on families and individuals who would otherwise have to spend a significant amount of money on medical bills. Additionally, a well-funded healthcare system leads to better health outcomes, which in turn contributes to the overall development of the country.

Topic 3: How does government expenditure on healthcare vary among different states in India?
In India, the central government provides financial assistance to the states for healthcare services. However, the actual expenditure on healthcare varies among different states. For instance, in Punjab and Haryana, the per capita health expenditure is relatively low compared to other states like Himachal Pradesh, Jammu & Kashmir, and Chandigarh. This means that these states are investing less money in healthcare services compared to other states.

Section 2: Analyzing Government Expenditure on Healthcare

Topic 1: How can we analyze government expenditure on healthcare?
To analyze government expenditure on healthcare, we need to look at the percentage of the total budget allocated to healthcare. This will give us an idea of how much importance the government attaches to healthcare services. Additionally, we can also compare the per capita health expenditure of different states to understand the variation in healthcare spending.

Topic 2: What factors influence government expenditure on healthcare?
Several factors influence government expenditure on healthcare. These include the overall economic condition of the country, the level of poverty, the prevalence of diseases, and the availability of medical professionals. Additionally, political factors such as elections and public opinion also play a role in determining government expenditure on healthcare.

Section 3: Applying Government Expenditure on Healthcare

Topic 1: How can we apply our understanding of government expenditure on healthcare?
By understanding government expenditure on healthcare, we can advocate for increased funding for healthcare services in our communities. We can also hold our elected representatives accountable for the amount of money they allocate to healthcare. Additionally, we can educate others on the importance of government expenditure on healthcare and the impact it has on our lives.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, government expenditure on healthcare is crucial in ensuring that every citizen has access to quality healthcare services. By analyzing government expenditure on healthcare, we can identify areas where more funding is needed and advocate for increased funding for healthcare services. By applying our understanding of government expenditure on healthcare, we can contribute to the overall development of our communities and improve the health outcomes of our citizens.

Lesson: Minimally Invasive Surgery

## Section 1: Introduction
In this lesson, we will learn about minimally invasive surgery, also known as laparoscopy. Laparoscopy is a surgical procedure that involves making small incisions and using a camera and specialized instruments to perform the operation. This type of surgery is becoming more popular because it has many benefits over traditional open surgery, such as reduced risk of infection, less pain, and faster recovery time.

## Section 2: Understanding Minimally Invasive Surgery
Minimally invasive surgery involves making several small incisions in the body instead of one large incision. These incisions are usually less than 1 inch long and are made in areas where the surgeon can easily access the organs or tissues they need to operate on. The surgeon then inserts a camera and specialized instruments through these incisions to perform the operation.

## Section 3: Types of Minimally Invasive Surgery
There are several types of minimally invasive surgery, including:

1. Hand-assisted laparoscopic surgery: This method involves the use of specialized instruments that the surgeon can control directly, as well as a laparoscope to guide the procedure.

2. Hybrid laparoscopic/open surgery: This technique combines aspects of both minimally invasive and open surgery, allowing the surgeon to use a combination of techniques depending on the needs of the patient.

3. Robotic laparoscopic surgery: This method uses a robotic system controlled by the surgeon to perform the operation through small incisions.

## Section 4: Benefits of Minimally Invasive Surgery
There are several benefits to having minimally invasive surgery, including:

1. Reduced risk of infection: Since there are fewer incisions, there is less chance of infection.

2. Less pain: Smaller incisions mean less pain for the patient.

3. Faster recovery time: Because the procedure is less invasive, patients tend to recover more quickly.

4. Better cosmetic results: Since there are smaller scars, the results of the surgery are often more aesthetically pleasing.

## Section 5: Conclusion
In conclusion, minimally invasive surgery is a valuable tool for surgeons to perform a wide range of operations. By making small incisions and using specialized instruments, surgeons can perform procedures with less risk of infection, less pain, and faster recovery times for their patients. As technology continues to advance, minimally invasive surgery will likely become even more common and effective.

Q:

Choice of current sensing reisistor

I need measure a 10A AC current, and need a 50mOhm current sensing resistor with tolerance <= 1% and good temperature stability. I find there are some choices, such as Vishay's RH,NH series, or this type made by special copper alloy as below:

Which one is better? Any other suggestions?

A:

The "RN, RH" are wirewound with no hint about inductance, so depending on your use case, they might be unusable.
I can't open the link for http://www.topresistor.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/FL.pdf so it may be no use either.
I would have expected something like 50mΩ ±1.0% 7W SMD or 50mΩ 1% 5W through hole, designed to be low-inductance current shunts, which specify inductance.
Maybe a lower resistance to reduce power loss.

Lesson: How to Choose the Right Current Sensing Resistor

Introduction:
A current sensing resistor is a device that allows you to measure the amount of current flowing through a circuit. It works by converting the current flow into a voltage signal that can be measured using a voltmeter or an oscilloscope. In this lesson, we will learn how to choose the right current sensing resistor for your needs.

Core Value:
The core value of this lesson is to teach you how to select the appropriate current sensing resistor based on factors such as resistance value, tolerance, power rating, and temperature coefficient.

Section 1: Understanding Current Sensing Resistors

Topic 1: What is a Current Sensing Resistor?
A current sensing resistor is a passive component that is used to measure the current flowing through a circuit. It consists of a resistor whose resistance value changes in proportion to the current flowing through it.

Topic 2: Types of Current Sensing Resistors
Current sensing resistors come in different types, including:

- Thermal resistors
- Hall effect sensors
- Magnetic sensors
- Strain gauges

Section 2: Selecting the Right Current Sensing Resistor

Topic 1: Resistance Value
The resistance value of a current sensing resistor should be chosen based on the current you want to measure. The resistance value should be as low as possible to minimize power loss.

Topic 2: Tolerance
Tolerance refers to the allowable variation in the resistance value of the resistor. A lower tolerance means that the resistance value is more accurate, while a higher tolerance means that the resistance value is less accurate.

Topic 3: Power Rating
Power rating is the maximum amount of power that the resistor can handle without overheating. You should choose a resistor with a power rating that is high enough to handle the current you want to measure.

Topic 4: Temperature Coefficient
Temperature coefficient refers to the change in resistance value due to changes in temperature. You should choose a resistor with a low temperature coefficient to ensure accurate measurements over a wide temperature range.

Section 3: Practical Examples

Example 1: Measuring a 10A AC Current
For measuring a 10A AC current, you would need a current sensing resistor with a resistance value of around 50 mΩ. You should choose a resistor with a tolerance of 1% or less and a power rating of at least 5W. Additionally, you should consider the temperature coefficient of the resistor to ensure accurate measurements over a wide temperature range.

Example 2: Measuring a 5A DC Current
For measuring a 5A DC current, you would need a current sensing resistor with a resistance value of around 100 mΩ. You should choose a resistor with a tolerance of 1% or less and a power rating of at least 1W. Additionally, you should consider the temperature coefficient of the resistor to ensure accurate measurements over a wide temperature range.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, choosing the right current sensing resistor involves considering factors such as resistance value, tolerance, power rating, and temperature coefficient. By understanding these factors, you can select the appropriate current sensing resistor for your needs.

Glossary:
- Resistance value: The value of the resistor's resistance in ohms.
- Tolerance: The allowable variation in the resistance value of the resistor.
- Power rating: The maximum amount of power that the resistor can handle without overheating.
- Temperature coefficient: The change in resistance value due to changes in temperature.

Lesson: Understanding Sensory Impairments

Introduction:
In this lesson, we will learn about sensory impairments, which are conditions that affect a person's ability to see, hear, or touch. These impairments can make it difficult for individuals to interact with their environment and communicate with others.

Core Value:
The core value of this lesson is to understand the impact of sensory impairments on individuals and society. By learning about the different types of impairments and the challenges they face, we can develop empathy and understanding towards people with disabilities.

Section 1: Types of Sensory Impairments

Topic 1: Vision Impairments
Vision impairments refer to partial or complete loss of sight. There are different types of vision impairments, including blindness, low vision, and color blindness. Blindness refers to the complete absence of vision, while low vision refers to partial sight. Color blindness is a condition where a person has difficulty distinguishing between certain colors.

Topic 2: Hearing Impairments
Hearing impairments refer to partial or complete loss of hearing. There are different types of hearing impairments, including conductive hearing loss, sensorineural hearing loss, and mixed hearing loss. Conductive hearing loss occurs when sound cannot travel through the ear canal, while sensorineural hearing loss occurs when the inner ear is damaged. Mixed hearing loss occurs when both types of hearing loss occur together.

Topic 3: Touch Impairments
Touch impairments refer to conditions that affect a person's ability to feel touch or pressure. There are different types of touch impairments, including numbness and tingling. Numbness refers to the loss of feeling in a part of the body, while tingling refers to a feeling of pins and needles.

Section 2: Challenges Faced by People with Sensory Impairments

Topic 1: Communication
People with sensory impairments may have difficulty communicating with others. For example, people with hearing impairments may rely on sign language or written communication to communicate with others.

Topic 2: Accessibility
People with sensory impairments may also face challenges when it comes to accessing information and services. For example, people with vision impairments may require audio descriptions or braille versions of documents.

Topic 3: Stigma
People with sensory impairments may face stigma and discrimination in society. Some people may not understand their needs or may treat them differently because of their disability.

Section 3: Strategies for Supporting People with Sensory Impairments

Topic 1: Inclusion
One strategy for supporting people with sensory impairments is to promote inclusion in all areas of life. This means ensuring that people with disabilities have equal access to education, employment, and community activities.

Topic 2: Accommodations
Another strategy is to provide accommodations for people with sensory impairments. This may include providing audio descriptions or captioning for videos, or providing assistive technology such as hearing aids or braille printers.

Lesson: Introduction to Cancer Research

### Section 1: What is Cancer?
Cancer is a disease where cells in the body grow out of control. It can start in different parts of the body, such as the skin, lungs, breast, or colon. There are many types of cancer, and they can be treated in different ways. In this lesson, we will learn about some of the basics of cancer research.

### Section 2: How do Cancer Cells Grow?
Cancer cells grow differently than normal cells. They don't follow the normal rules that tell cells when to grow, stop growing, or die. This is called uncontrolled cell growth. Scientists are trying to figure out what causes this uncontrolled growth so they can find ways to stop it.

### Section 3: How do Scientists Study Cancer?
Scientists study cancer in many different ways. They might look at cells under a microscope to see if they are cancerous. They might also study animals to see how cancer grows and spreads. And they might use computers to help them understand how genes work and how they can cause cancer.

### Section 4: What do Cancer Researchers Do?
Cancer researchers do many different jobs. Some study cells and tissues to learn more about how cancer starts. Others test drugs to see if they can stop cancer from growing. Still others work on ways to prevent cancer or find it early, before it spreads.

### Section 5: Conclusion
In this lesson, we learned about the basics of cancer research. We learned that cancer is a disease where cells grow out of control, and that scientists study it in many different ways. We also learned about some of the jobs that cancer researchers do. By understanding these basics, we can better appreciate the importance of cancer research and the work that goes into it.

**Lesson: Real Estate Basics**

**Introduction**

In this lesson, we will learn about the basics of real estate. Real estate refers to the land and buildings on it, as well as any natural resources such as minerals or water that are attached to it. Real estate can be a great investment, but it also comes with its own set of risks. In this lesson, we will cover the following topics:

1. What is real estate?
2. Types of real estate
3. How to invest in real estate
4. Risks associated with real estate
5. Conclusion

**What is real estate?**

Real estate is a type of property that includes land and buildings on it. It can also include natural resources such as minerals or water that are attached to the land. Real estate can be used for residential purposes (housing), commercial purposes (offices, stores, etc.), or industrial purposes (factories, warehouses, etc.). Real estate can be bought, sold, rented, or leased.

**Types of real estate**

There are several types of real estate, including:

1. Residential: This includes single-family homes, condos, townhouses, and multi-family properties (such as apartments).
2. Commercial: This includes office buildings, retail spaces, warehouses, and other types of business properties.

4. Land: This includes vacant land, farmland, and other types of undeveloped land.
5. Special use: This includes properties that are zoned for specific uses, such as religious institutions or schools.

**How to invest in real estate**

There are several ways to invest in real estate, including:

1. Buying rental property: You can buy a property and rent it out to tenants to generate income.
2. Flipping houses: You can buy a property, renovate it, and sell it for a profit.
3. Investing in real estate investment trusts (REITs): REITs are companies that own and operate income-producing real estate.
4. Investing in real estate investment groups (REIGs): REIGs are groups of individuals who pool their money together to invest in real estate.
5. Investing in real estate mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs): These are investment vehicles that hold a basket of real estate assets.

**Risks associated with real estate**

Investing in real estate comes with several risks, including:

1. Market risk: Real estate prices can fluctuate based on market conditions. If you buy a property when the market is overvalued, you may not be able to sell it for a profit later on.
2. Interest rate risk: If you take out a loan to invest in real estate, your monthly payments may increase if interest rates rise.
3. Property management risk: If you own rental property, you may encounter problems with tenants or have to deal with maintenance and repair issues.
4. Liquidity risk: Real estate is not always easy to sell quickly, especially if the market is slow.
5. Legal risk: Real estate transactions can involve complex legal issues, such as zoning and land use restrictions.

**Conclusion**

Real estate can be a great investment, but it also comes with its own set of risks. By understanding the basics of real estate, you can make informed decisions about whether it's right for you and how to approach it. Whether you're interested in buying your first home or investing in rental property, this lesson has provided you with the foundation you need to get started.

Elisabet Charlotta Piper

Elisabet Charlotta Piper (26 April 1787 - 26 February 1860), was a Swedish court official.  She served as överhovmästarinna (Senior lady-in-waiting) to the crown princess  of Sweden, Josephine of Leuchtenberg, from 1823 to 1835.

She was the daughter of count Eric Ruuth and Elisabet Charlotta Wahrendorff, and married her sisters brother-in-law the courtier count Erik Piper (1773-1833) in 1805, with whom she had two children.

She was appointed senior lady-in-waiting upon the arrival of the new crown princess in 1823.  She was persuaded to accept the post after it had been declined by Aurora Wilhelmina Brahe:
"There had been eager hopes that countess Brahe would accept the office as senior lady-in-waiting at the new court, but she could not be enticed to. She did agree to accept the task to depart for Lubeck and receive the crown princess, whose German ladies where both to depart from her there. To the post of senior lady-in-waiting was instead appointed countess Erik Piper, a lady in every aspect worthy of her office, which neither she accepted without difficulty. As she by birth and wealth had came to be in an independent as well as pleasurable position, it may have been a sacrifice which was not entirely compensated by the award the titles and honors could offer vanity."

Jacob De la Gardie described her:
" Countess Piper is one of the most accomplished people of the higher society. Good breeding, complete grace, noble mind, much dignity and a behavior high above all reproach where characteristics generally attributed to her, and gave her a well deserved good name."

Queen Désirée compared her favorably to her own senior lady-in-waiting Vilhelmina Gyldenstolpe in a letter to her sister Julie Clary in March 1831:
"I am sure you have found countess Piper to be very pleasant and entertaining; she is an exceptional person [un phénix]. Joséphine is lucky to be given her as a dame d'honneur, my own is an icicle!"

She was succeeded by Charlotta Skjöldebrand in 1836.

Lesson: Introduction to Biosimilars

## Section 1: What are Biosimilars?

A biosimilar is a type of biological medicine that is highly similar to a previously approved biological medicine known as the "reference product." Biosimilars are used to treat various medical conditions, including autoimmune diseases, cancer, and chronic illnesses. They are manufactured using living organisms, such as cells or microorganisms, and are designed to mimic the structure and function of the reference product.

## Section 2: How are Biosimilars developed?

Biosimilars undergo a rigorous process of development and testing to ensure they are safe and effective. This process includes:

1. Identifying the structure and function of the reference product
2. Developing a manufacturing process to produce the biosimilar
3. Conducting preclinical studies to evaluate safety and effectiveness
4. Performing clinical trials to compare the biosimilar to the reference product
5. Submitting the biosimilar for regulatory approval

Once approved, biosimilars must meet the same safety and efficacy standards as the reference product.

## Section 3: Why are Biosimilars important?

Biosimilars are important because they offer patients and healthcare providers more treatment options at a lower cost. By providing access to effective treatments, biosimilars can help improve patient outcomes and reduce healthcare costs. Additionally, biosimilars can promote competition in the market, leading to further innovation and advancements in biologic medicines.

## Section 4: Real-World Examples

One example of a biosimilar is SB5, which is a biosimilar version of adalimumab. Adalimumab is a biologic medicine used to treat autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, and Crohn's disease. SB5 has been shown to be as effective and safe as adalimumab in clinical studies.

## Section 5: Conclusion

In conclusion, biosimilars offer a valuable option for patients and healthcare providers by providing access to effective treatments at a lower cost. As more biosimilars are developed and approved, we can expect to see continued advancements in biologic medicines and improved patient outcomes.

Lesson: How to Use Search Engines Effectively

Introduction:
Search engines are powerful tools that help us find information quickly and easily. However, to use them effectively, we need to know how to use them correctly. In this lesson, we will learn how to use search engines like Google to find the information we need.

Section 1: Understanding Search Engines

Topic 1: What is a search engine?
A search engine is a website that helps people find information on the internet. It works by using algorithms to scan the web and index billions of web pages. When you enter a search query, the search engine uses its algorithms to find the most relevant pages and display them in the search results.

Topic 2: How do search engines work?
Search engines use algorithms to crawl the web, index web pages, and rank them according to relevance. The algorithms take into account many factors, such as the keyword used in the search query, the location of the keyword on the web page, the number of times the keyword appears on the page, and the quality of the page itself.

Topic 3: Why use search engines?
Search engines are useful because they save us time and effort. Instead of browsing through millions of websites to find the information we need, we can simply enter our search query into a search engine and get a list of relevant pages in seconds.

Section 2: Using Search Engines Effectively

Topic 1: How to enter a search query
When entering a search query, it's important to use keywords that accurately describe what you're looking for. Try to use specific and relevant keywords rather than general terms. Also, try to avoid using words that are too common or too broad, as this may result in a large number of irrelevant search results.

Topic 2: Using advanced search operators
Advanced search operators allow you to refine your search and find more specific information. For example, you can use quotation marks around a phrase to find exactly that phrase, or you can use the "OR" operator to search for multiple keywords at once.

Topic 3: Evaluating search results
Once you've entered your search query and clicked "search," you'll be presented with a list of search results. It's important to evaluate these results to find the most relevant and useful information. Look for pages that are written by reputable sources, contain accurate and up-to-date information, and are easy to read and understand.

Section 3: Real-World Examples

Topic 1: Finding a recipe for chocolate chip cookies
Let's say you want to make some chocolate chip cookies, but you don't have a recipe. You could enter the search query "chocolate chip cookie recipe" into a search engine and click "search." From there, you can evaluate the search results to find a recipe that looks tasty and easy to follow.

Topic 2: Researching the history of the internet
If you're interested in learning about the history of the internet, you could enter the search query "history of the internet" into a search engine and click "search." From there, you can evaluate the search results to find reputable sources that provide accurate and detailed information about the history of the internet.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, search engines are powerful tools that can help us find information quickly and easily. By understanding how search engines work and using advanced search operators, we can find the most relevant and useful information. With practice, we can become skilled searchers who can find answers to almost any question.

Lesson: Introduction to Cloud Storage and Syncing

## Section 1: What is Cloud Storage and Syncing?
Cloud storage and syncing refers to the process of storing data on remote servers and accessing it from multiple devices. This allows users to access their files from anywhere with an internet connection, share files with others, and keep their data safe in case of device failure.

## Section 2: Why Use Cloud Storage and Syncing?
There are several reasons why people use cloud storage and syncing. One reason is convenience. With cloud storage, users can access their files from any device with an internet connection, making it easy to work remotely or while traveling. Another reason is security. If a user's device fails or is lost, their data will still be safe on the cloud. Additionally, cloud storage allows for easy collaboration and sharing of files with others.

## Section 3: How Does Cloud Storage and Syncing Work?
Cloud storage and syncing works by storing data on remote servers instead of on local devices. When a user wants to access their files, they log into their cloud storage account and download or view the files they need. Many cloud storage services also offer syncing, which means that files are automatically copied to all of the user's devices. This allows for seamless access to files across multiple devices.

## Section 4: Types of Cloud Storage and Syncing Services
There are several types of cloud storage and syncing services available. Some popular options include Dropbox, Google Drive, and iCloud. Each service has its own strengths and weaknesses, so it's important for users to research and choose the service that best fits their needs.

## Section 5: Advantages and Disadvantages of Cloud Storage and Syncing
Advantages of cloud storage and syncing include convenience, security, and collaboration. However, there are also disadvantages to consider. One disadvantage is the potential for slower file access due to the need to access files over the internet. Additionally, there may be concerns about privacy and security, as data is being stored on remote servers.

## Section 6: Practical Examples
One practical example of cloud storage and syncing is using Dropbox to share files between team members working on a project. By storing the project files on Dropbox, team members can easily access and edit the files from anywhere with an internet connection. Another example is using iCloud to backup and sync photos across multiple Apple devices. This allows for easy access to photos on all devices and ensures that photos are safely backed up.

## Section 7: Self-Debating Discussion
One topic for self-debating discussion is whether or not to use cloud storage and syncing for sensitive information. While there are certainly risks associated with storing sensitive information on remote servers, there are also benefits such as easy access and collaboration. Ultimately, the decision will depend on individual needs and preferences.

## Conclusion
Cloud storage and syncing is a powerful tool that allows users to access their files from anywhere, collaborate with others, and keep their data safe. By researching and choosing the right service, users can take advantage of the many benefits of cloud storage and syncing while minimizing potential drawbacks.

Penopubic flaps technique for the repair of epispadias with or without exstrophy: a preliminary report.
Six patients (average age, 2 1/2 years; range, 4 months to 8 years) with the exstrophy-epispadias complex and isolate epispadias were treated using an alternative method. An inverted U-shaped incision (with a length of approximately 3 to 5 cm and a width of approximately 0.7 to 1.0 cm) was prepared, extending from the penopubic urethral meatus toward the umbilicus. The two incisions were extended along the urethral plate toward the ventral face of the glans. The pubic flap was prepared from the skin or scar tissue on the pubic area. The neourethra was reconstructed using penopubic flaps. A fistula occurred in one patient, which healed spontaneously. The penopubic flaps enabled us to form a wide-enough urethral tube and to perform a better dissection on the pubic area.

textbook:
Lesson: Introduction to Surgical Techniques

## Section 1: Theoretical Concepts

In this lesson, we will learn about the penopubic flaps technique, a surgical technique used to repair epispadias with or without exstrophy. Epispadias is a birth defect where the urethral opening is on the surface of the penis instead of being inside the body. This technique involves using skin and tissue from the pubic area to reconstruct the urethra.

## Section 2: Practical Examples

Let's imagine that a baby is born with epispadias. The doctor recommends surgery to repair the defect. The surgery will involve creating an incision on the penis and using skin and tissue from the pubic area to reconstruct the urethra. The doctor will also need to create a new urethral opening.

## Section 3: Difficulty Level

This lesson is suitable for primary through high school students who are interested in learning about surgical techniques used to repair birth defects. The concepts covered in this lesson are introductory and can be understood by students at all levels.

## Glossary

- Epispadias: A birth defect where the urethral opening is on the surface of the penis instead of being inside the body.
- Penopubic flaps: Skin and tissue from the pubic area used to reconstruct the urethra.
- Urethra: A tube that carries urine from the bladder to the outside of the body.
- Incision: A cut made in the skin or tissue to allow access to the underlying structures.
- Fistula: An abnormal connection between two organs or tissues.
- Dissection: The process of separating and examining the layers of tissue in the body.

## Conclusion

In this lesson, we learned about the penopubic flaps technique, a surgical technique used to repair epispadias with or without exstrophy. We discussed the theoretical concepts, practical examples, and difficulty level of this lesson. We also provided a glossary of key terms. By understanding this technique, we can apply these skills to other problems and situations in the field of medicine.

text: Underworld & Iggy Pop: Bells & Circles / I'll See Big. Little did we know last month when we got to listen to a new single collaboration between seminal electronic act, Underworld, and legend, Iggy Pop, that it was only the first sample of a bigger concept, a collaborative four-song EP. The upcoming release, Teatime Dub Encounters is due out July 27th via Caroline International, and another piece off it has been unveiled.. Contrary to the nerve of Bells & Circles, I’ll See Big is a more downtempo and softer track which utilizes the depth Iggy's voice and the firmness of his spoken word delivery.. The two sides connect via the iconic Trainspotting soundtrack, to which they both contributed classic tracks, something that makes the fact that the new song's lyrics were inspired by a conversation Iggy had with the film's director, Danny Boyle, about its themes of friendship even more interesting.. Listen to both new tracks that this collaboration has spawned thus far right below.. ZR. 0 σχόλια

Significant differences in the effects of magnetic field exposure on 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene-induced mammary carcinogenesis in two substrains of Sprague-Dawley rats.
We have shown previously (S. Thun-Battersby et al., Cancer Res., 59: 3627-3633, 1999) that power-line frequency (50-Hz) magnetic fields (MFs) at micro T-flux densities enhance mammary gland tumor development and growth in the 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA) model of breast cancer in female Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. We also demonstrated that MF exposure results in an enhanced proliferative activity of the mammary epithelium of SD rats (M. Fedrowitz et al., Cancer Res., 62: 1356-1363, 2002), which is a likely explanation for the cocarcinogenic or tumor-promoting effects of MF exposure in the DMBA model. However, in contrast with our data, in a similar study conducted by Battelle in the United States, no evidence for a cocarcinogenic or tumor-promoting effect of MF exposure was found in the DMBA model in SD rats (L. E. Anderson et al., Carcinogenesis, 20: 1615-1620, 1999). Probably the most important difference between our and the Battelle studies was the use of different substrains of SD rats; the United States rats were much more susceptible to DMBA than the rats used in our studies. This prompted us to compare different substrains of SD outbred rats in our laboratory in respect to MF effects on cell proliferation in the mammary gland, susceptibility to DMBA-induced mammary cancer, and MF effects on mammary tumor development and growth in the DMBA model. The SD substrain (termed "SD1") used in all of our previous studies was considered MF-sensitive and used for comparison with another substrain ("SD2") obtained from the same breeder. In contrast with SD1 rats, no enhanced cell proliferation was determined after MF exposure in SD2 rats. MF exposure significantly increased mammary tumor development and growth in SD1 but not SD2 rats. These data indicate that the genetic background plays a pivotal role in effects of MF exposure. Different strains or substrains of rats may serve to evaluate the genetic factors underlying sensitivity to cocarcinogenic or tumor-promoting effects of MF exposure.
