what are hamitic peoples

Further information: Curse of Ham The term Hamitic originally referred to the peoples believed to have been descended from the biblical Ham, one of the Sons of Noah. When Ham dishonors his father, Noah pronounces a curse on him, stating that the descendents of his son Canaan will be ""servants of servants"

Hamitic

"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamitic Hamitic is an historical term for the peoples supposedly descended from Noah's son Ham, paralleling Semitic and Japhetic.

It was formerly used for grouping the non-Semitic Afroasiatic languages (which for this reason were described as ""Hamito-Semitic""), but since, unlike the Semitic branch, these have not been shown to form a phylogenetic unity, the term is obsolete in this sense. In the 19th century, as an application of scientific racism, the "" Hamitic race "" became a sub-group of the Caucasian race, alongside the Semitic race, grouping the non-Semitic populations native to North Africa, the Horn of Africa and South Arabia, including the Ancient Egyptians. The Hamitic theory suggested that this ""Hamite race"" was superior to or more advanced than Negroid populations of Sub-Saharan Africa. In its most extreme form, in the writings of C. G. Seligman, it asserted that all significant achievements in African history were the work of ""Hamites"" who migrated into central Africa as pastoralists, bringing technologies and civilizing skills with them. Theoretical models of Hamitic languages and of Hamitic races were interlinked in the early twentieth century. A stylised T and O map, depicting Africa as the home of the descendants of Ham, Asia of the descendents of Sem, and Europe of the descendants of Japheth (Guntherus Ziner, 1472)The “Hamitic race” was regarded as being composed of all those native speakers of Afro-Asiatic languages (formerly called Hamito-Semitic languages) who were not Semitic.

The Semitic languages are shown in orange on this map. What together were called the “Hamitic languages” are shown in orange red, azure, cyan, and chartreuse green. The former extent of a now extinct language regarded as one of the “Hamitic languages”, Ancient Egyptian, is shown in yellow around the northern Nile.

Sometimes other groups were regarded as “Hamitic” as well, as discussed in the article. Curse of Ham

". Of Ham's four sons, Canaan fathered the Canaanites, while Mizraim fathered the Egyptians, Cush the Cushites and Phut the Libyans. [ 1]During the Middle Ages, this was interpreted to define Ham as the ancestor of all Africans. The curse was regularly interpreted as having created visible racial characteristics in Ham's offspring, notably black skin. According to Bernard Lewis, the sixth-century Babylonian Talmud states that ""the descendants of Ham are cursed by being Black and are sinful with a degenerate progeny."" [ 2] Both Arab and later European and American slave traders used this story to justify African slavery. [ 3] [ 4]In fact, the Bible restricts the curse to the offspring of Ham's son Canaan, who occupied the Levant, not to his other sons who are supposed to have populated Africa. According to Edith Sanders, this restriction was increasingly emphasised by 19th century theologians, who rejected the curse as a justification for slavery. [ 4]Hamitic hypothesis Oromo leader Balcha Aba Nefso. John Hanning Speke believed that central African ""barbaric civilizations"" had been founded by North African Hamites from the Oromo ethnic group of Ethiopia. In the mid 19th century, the term Hamitic acquired a new meaning as European writers claimed to identify a distinct ""Hamitic race"" that was superior to "" Negroid "" populations of Sub-Saharan Africa. The theory arose from early anthropological writers who linked the stories in the Bible of Ham's sons to actual ancient migrations of a supposed Middle-Eastern sub-group of the Caucasian race. [ 4] The theory that this group migrated further south was introduced by British explorer John Hanning Speke, in his publications on his search for the source of the Nile. [ 4] Speke believed that his explorations uncovered the link between ""civilized"" North Africa and ""barbaric"" central Africa. Describing the Ugandan Kingdom of Buganda, he argued its ""barbaric civilization"" had arisen from a nomadic pastoralist race which migrated from the north and was related to the Hamitic Oromo people of Ethiopia (known as the ""Galla"" to Speke). [ 4] In a section of his book entitled ""Theory of Conquest of Inferior by Superior Races"", Speke wrote:""It appears impossible to believe, judging from the physical appearance of the Wahuma [Tutsi], that they can be of any other race than the semi-Shem-Hamitic of Ethiopia... Most people appear to regard the Abyssinians as a different race from the Gallas, but, I believe, without foundation. Both alike are Christians of the greatest antiquity.... [They] fought in the Somali country, subjugated that land, were defeated to a certain extent by the Arabs from the opposite continent, and tried their hands south as far as the Jub river, where they also left many of their numbers behind. Again they attacked Omwita (the present Mombas), were repulsed, were lost sight of in the interior of the continent, and, crossing the Nile close to its source, discovered the rich pasture-lands of Unyoro, and founded the great kingdom of Kittara, where they lost their religion, forgot their language, extracted their lower incisors like the natives, changed their national name to Wahuma, and no longer remembered the names of Hubshi or Galla--though even the present reigning kings retain a singular traditional account of their having once been half white and half black, with hair on the white side straight, and on the black side frizzly."" [ 5]These ideas provided the basis for asserting that the Tutsi were superior to the Hutu. In spite of both groups being Bantu -speaking, the Tutsi were classed as ""Hamitic"" on grounds of their being deemed to be more Caucasoid in their facial features. Later writers followed Speke in arguing that they had originally migrated as pastoralists and had established themselves as the dominant group, having lost their language as they assimilated to Bantu culture. [ 6]Sergi Later scholars expanded on these ideas, the most influential was the Italian race theorist Giuseppe Sergi. In his book The Mediterranean Race (1901) Sergi argued that there was a distinct Hamitic racial group which could be divided into two sub-groups: The northern Hamites, which comprised Berbers, Toubou, Fulani and the Guanches; the Eastern branch, which comprised Egyptians, Nubians, Ethiopians, Oromo, Somali, and Tutsis. [ 7] Some of these groups had ""lost their language"" and so had to be identified by physical characteristics. In Sergi's theory, the Mediterraneans were the ""greatest race in the world"", and had expanded north and south from the Horn of Africa, creating superior civilizations. [ 4] [ 8] Sergi described the original European peoples as ""Eurafricans"". The ancient Greeks and Italians were born from ""Afro-Mediterraneans"" who migrated from western Asia and had originally spoken a Hamitic language before the advent of Indo-European languages. [ 8]Seligman The Hamitic hypothesis reached its apogee in the work of C. G. Seligman, who argued in his book The Races of Africa (1930) that:""Apart from relatively late Semitic influence...the civilizations of Africa are the civilizations of the Hamites, its history is the record of these peoples and of their interaction with the two other African stocks, the Negro and the Bushmen, whether this influence was exerted by highly civilized Egyptians or by such wider pastoralists as are represented at the present day by the Beja and Somali.... The incoming Hamites were pastoral 'Europeans' - arriving wave after wave - better armed as well as quicker witted than the dark agricultural Negroes."" [ 4] [ 9]Seligman asserted that the Negro race was essentially static and agricultural, but that the wandering Hamitic ""pastoral Caucasians"" had introduced most of the advanced features found in central African cultures, including metal working, irrigation and complex social structures. [ 4] [ 10]Despite criticism, Seligman's thesis remained unchanged in new editions of his book into the 1960s. Negro-Hamites A group of Maasai women. C. G. Seligman believed that ethnic groups such as the Maasai and the Tutsi, traditionally considered Negro, were of partly Hamitic descent (""Negro-Hamitic"") mainly based on their cattle-raising lifestyle and comparatively more keen facial features than those of other neighboring Sub-Saharan tribes. Seligman and other early scholars also believed that invading Hamites from North Africa and the Horn of Africa had mixed with local Negro women in East Africa and parts of Central Africa to produce several hybrid ""Negro-Hamitic"" populations such as the Tutsi and the Maasai:""At first the Hamites, or at least their aristocracy, would endeavour to marry Hamitic women, but it cannot have been long before a series of peoples combining Negro and Hamitic blood arose; these, superior to the pure Negro, would be regarded as inferior to the next incoming wave of Hamites and be pushed further inland to play the part of an incoming aristocracy vis-a-vis the Negroes on whom they impinged... The end result of one series of such combinations is to be seen in the Masai [sic], the other in the Baganda, while an even more striking result is offered by the symbiosis of the Bahima of Ankole and the Bahera [sic]."" [ 10]While some scholars accepted the idea of Sub-Saharan tribes like the Tutsi and the Maasai being Negro-Hamites, others such as John Walter Gregory emphasized that the putative Hamitic element in these peoples was at best minimal and consequently assigned them to a sub-group within the Negro race (where they had historically been classified). Citing the considerable physical disparity between the ethnic groups traditionally considered Hamites and the aforementioned ""Negro-Hamites"", Gregory wrote:""By some authorities the Masai are included in the Hamitic group, but we have only to compare the features of a member of this tribe with those of a Galla ... to realise the predominance of the negro element in the former. The aspect of the pure Hamite differs altogether from those of the Bantu and Negroid races. The... portrait of a Galla presents no correspondence with the conception usually formed of an African native. The forehead is high and square instead of low and receding; the nose is narrow, with the nostrils straight and not transverse; the chin is small and slightly pointed instead of massive and protruding; the hair is long and not woolly; the lips are thinner than those of the negro and not everted; the expression is intellectual, and indicates a type of mind higher than that of the simple negro. Indeed, except for the colour, it could hardly be distinguished from the face of a European. These characteristics prepare us for the fact that the Galla are not African, but immigrants from Asia."" [ 11]Rwanda and Burundi Further information: Rwandan genocide Further information: Burundi genocide The Hamitic hypothesis affected the policies of European imperial powers in the twentieth century. In Rwanda it was linked to preferential attitudes to the Tutsis over the Hutu. This is believed by some to have been a significant factor in the Rwandan genocide in 1994. The League of Nations Mandate of 1916 appointed Belgium to govern Rwanda after Germany's defeat in World War I; Philip Gourevitch claims that “the terms Hutu and Tutsi had become clearly defined opposing “ethnic” identities, and the Belgians made this polarization the cornerstone of their colonial policy.” [ 12] Belgian officials would set about measuring Rwandans to define traits among the various tribes which resulted in discrepancies they argued justified the Tutsis majority of control throughout the country. Racial differences were established between the Tutsi and Hutu people, differences which would impose a wholly inflexible ceiling on those designated as Hutu. [ 13]Scholars such as Mahmood Mamdani suggested that the Hutu began to see the Tutsi as an outside invader to their land, as ""aliens"" and usurpers, and that this led, in the end, to genocide. He states that reforms of local government by the Belgian colonial rulers in the 1920s led to a situation in which the Hutus ""were not ruled by their own chiefs but by Tutsi chiefs. The same reforms constructed the Tutsi into a different race: the Hamitic race"". [ 14] A major contributing force to the animosity between Hutu and Tutsis is derived from Spekes’ “Hamitic hypothesis”. Namely the notion that since the Tutsis were considered the Hamitic race, the Hutu could frame the Tutsis as foreign invaders, as by definition, the Hamitic race is synonymous with a settling identity."". [ 14]Following World War II Belgium’s colonial administration had been placed under United Nations trusteeship, which meant that it was to prepare for the eventual independence of Rwanda as a self-governing nation. Hutu political activists emerged in great numbers and exploited this as an opportunity to rally the masses to unite in their ""Hutuness"" as this was their chance to finally gain power after decades of oppression. [ 12] This philosophy, coupled with other political incidents led to the social revolution of 1959 where ten thousand Tutsis, predominantly those within the political structure, were killed, and thousands more displaced from their homes. What followed was essentially a racial and ethnic hierarchy similar in most respects to that of one year prior; however with the roles simply reversed – Hutu dominated institutions with discrimination in education, the civil service and armed forces. [ 13]This was unique to Rwanda and Burundi. While other ethnic groups outside Rwanda such as the Bahima were also identified as ""Hamites"", they were not given institutionalised superior status. ""Only in Rwanda and Burundi did the Hamitic hypothesis become the basis of a series of institutional changes that fixed the Tutsi as a race in their relationship to the colonial state."" [ 14]African-American views George Wells Parker, founder of the Hamitic League of the World African-American writers were initially ambivalent about the Hamitic hypothesis. Because Sergi's theory proposed that the superior Mediterranean race had originated in Africa, support for the Hamitic hypothesis could be used to challenge claims about the superiority of white Anglo-Saxons of the Nordic race, promoted by writers such as Madison Grant. According to Yaacov Shavit this generated ""radical Afrocentric theory, which followed the path of European racial doctrines"". Writers who insisted that the Nordics were the purest representatives of the Aryan race encouraged ""the transformation of the Hamitic race into the black race, and the resemblance it draws between the different branches of black forms in Asia and Africa."" [ 15] In response, the Journal of Negro History stressed the cross-fertilization of cultures between Africa and Europe, publishing an article by George Wells Parker who adopted Sergi's view that the ""civilizing"" race had originated in Africa itself. [ 16] In the same vein, the concept of Hamitic identity was taken up by black pride groups. Parker founded the Hamitic League of the World in 1917 by to ""inspire the Negro with new hopes; to make him openly proud of his race and of its great contributions to the religious development and civilization of mankind."" He insisted that ""fifty years ago one would not have dreamed that science would defend the fact that Asia was the home of the black races as well as Africa, yet it has done just that thing."" [ 17]These ideas evolved into the concept of the ""Asiatic Blackman"" in the theories of Timothy Drew and Elijah Muhammad. [ 18] Many other authors followed the argument that civilization had originated in Hamitic Ethiopia, a view that became intermingled with biblical imagery. The Universal Negro Improvement Association (1920) considered that Ethiopians were the ""mother race"". The Nation of Islam asserted that the superior black race originated with the lost Tribe of Shabazz, which originally possessed ""fine features and straight hair"", but which migrated into central Africa, lost its religion and declined into a barbaric ""jungle life"". [ 15] [ 19] [ 20]However, writers who were keen to create a Pan-African view of the unity of black African peoples considered the Hamitic hypothesis to be divisive, since it asserted that superior Africans were not Negroid. W. E. B. Du Bois wrote that ""the term Hamite under which millions of Negroes have been characteristically transferred to the white race by some eager scientists"" was a tool to create ""false writing on Africa"". [ 21]Hamitic language group Further information: Afroasiatic languages Languages of pastoralist Bedouins such as the Beja were the model for the conflation of ethnic and linguistic evidence in the construction of Hamitic identity. These racial theories were developing alongside models of language. The term ""Hamitic"" was used for the first time in connection with languages by the German missionary Johann Ludwig Krapf (1810–1881), but in the traditional biblical sense to refer to all languages of Africa spoken by African people deemed ""black"". Friedrich Müller named the traditional Hamito-Semitic family in 1876 in his Grundriss der Sprachwissenschaft, and defined it as consisting of a Semitic group plus a ""Hamitic"" group containing Egyptian, Berber, and Cushitic; he excluded the Chadic group. It was the Egyptologist Karl Richard Lepsius (1810–1884) who restricted it to the non-Semitic languages in Africa which are characterized by a grammatical gender system. This ""Hamitic language group"" was proposed to unite various, mainly North-African languages, including the Ancient Egyptian language, the Berber languages, the Cushitic languages, the Beja language, and the Chadic languages. Unlike Müller, Lepsius considered that Hausa and Nama were part of the Hamitic group. These classifications relied in part on non-linguistic anthropological and racial arguments. Both authors used the skin-color, mode of subsistence and other characteristics of native speakers as part of their arguments that languages should be grouped together. [ 22]Carl Meinhof and other early scholars believed that ethnic groups such as the Afar (Danakil) spoke Hamitic languages due to linguistic similarities between their language and other Hamitic languages, and because of their pastoral lifestyle and Caucasoid physiognomies. In 1912, Carl Meinhof published Die Sprachen Der Hamiten (The Languages of the Hamites) in which he expanded Lepsius's model, adding the Fula language, Maasai language, Bari language, Nandi language, Sandawe language and Hadza language to the Hamitic group. Meinhof's model was widely supported into the 1940s. [ 22] Meinhof's system of classification of the Hamitic languages was based on a belief that ""speakers of Hamitic became largely coterminous with cattle herding peoples with essentially Caucasian origins, intrinsically different from and superior to the 'Negroes of Africa'."" [ 23] However, in the case of the so-called Nilo-Hamitic languages (a concept he introduced), it was based on the typological feature of gender and a ""fallacious theory of language mixture ."" Meinhof did this in spite of earlier work by scholars such as Lepsius and Johnston demonstrating that the languages which he would later dub ""Nilo-Hamitic"" were in fact Nilotic languages with numerous similarities in vocabulary with other Nilotic languages. [ 24]Leo Reinisch (1909) already proposed linking Cushitic and Chadic, while urging a more distant affinity with Egyptian and Semitic, but his suggestion found little resonance. Marcel Cohen (1924) rejected the idea of a distinct ""Hamitic"" subgroup, and included Hausa (a Chadic language) in his comparative Hamito-Semitic vocabulary. However, it was Joseph Greenberg (1950) whose work led to widespread scholarly rejection of ""Hamitic"" as a category. Greenberg refuted Meinhof's linguistic theories, and rejected the use of racial and social evidence. In dismissing the notion of a separate ""Nilo-Hamitic"" language category in particular, Greenberg was actually ""returning to a view widely held a half century earlier."" He consequently rejoined Meinhof's Nilo-Hamitic languages with their Nilotic siblings. [ 24] He also added (and sub-classified) the Chadic languages, and proposed the new name Afroasiatic for the family. Almost all scholars have accepted this classification. Greenberg's model was fully developed in his book The Languages of Africa, in which he reassigned most of Meinhof's additions to Hamitic to other language families, notably Nilo-Saharan. Following Isaac Schapera and rejecting Meinhof, he classified the Hottentot language as a member of the Central Khoisan languages. To Khoisan he also added the Tanzanian Hadza and Sandawe, though this view remains controversial since some scholars consider these languages to be linguistic isolates. [ 25] [ 26] Despite this, Greenberg's model remains the basis for modern classifications of languages spoken in Africa in which the Hamitic category (and its extension to Nilo-Hamitic) plays no part.

what convinces employees want

For instance, former employers often want to bring claims for tortious interference with prospective economic advantage if the former employee convinces a potential customer not to enter into a business contract with the employer and instead to enter into a similar business contract with the former employee.

The Limited Availability to Employers of Additional Claims for Relief in Noncompetition Disputes

"Home News + Insights The Limited Availability to Employers of A…Print to PDFApril 11, 2012The North Carolina Business Court has recently issued an opinion suggesting that, in most cases, an employer's claim for breach of a former employee's noncompetition agreement will be the employer's only possible remedy. North Carolina employers need to be aware of this limitation and take proper steps to ensure that they are able to fully protect their rights. Losing the Valuable Employee Almost all employers must deal with the loss of valuable employees from time to time. Many employers wisely utilize noncompetition agreements to limit the ability of key employees to directly compete against the employer immediately upon leaving. If a former employee begins to directly compete with the former employer and thereby violates a valid noncompetition agreement, the former employer can bring a lawsuit against the former employee. This is a breach of contract claim, where the particular contract happens to be the noncompetition agreement. When a former employer brings suit for violation of a noncompetition agreement, it typically makes other legal claims as well. The employer may assert certain general ""business torts"" (e.g., fraud, tortious interference with contract, and tortious interference with prospective economic advantage), as well as a claim for misappropriation of trade secrets. However, a recent ruling by the North Carolina Business Court suggests that North Carolina courts are viewing these additional remedies with great skepticism in the context of standard noncompetition disputes. In most cases, a lawsuit for breach of the noncompetition agreement will be an employer's only possible remedy. North Carolina employers need to be aware of this limitation and take proper steps to ensure that they are able to fully protect their rights. What Are ""Business Torts""""Business torts"" are common law causes of action created to protect individuals and businesses in economic interactions. In some cases, the North Carolina General Assembly has expanded or modified these protections. Business torts include the following: Fraud: A material misrepresentation intended to be acted upon which actually deceives and harms another party;Negligent misrepresentation: False or incorrect information prepared without reasonable care and that is then acted upon to the harm of the misled party;Tortious interference with contract: Intentionally inducing a party not to perform a valid contract the party has previously made;Tortious interference with prospective economic advantage: Intentionally inducing a party not to enter a contract the party otherwise would have entered into;Unfair and deceptive trade practices : A claim based on § 75-1.1 of the North Carolina General Statutes for wrongful conduct that affects commerce and harms another party;On their face, these claims seem perfectly applicable to various situations that commonly occur when a former employee violates a noncompetition agreement by improperly competing against the employee's former employer.

However, the North Carolina Business Court recently indicated in Akzo Nobel Coatings, Inc. v. Rogers that these claims are typically unavailable in situations that simply involve violations of a noncompetition agreement. The Business Court held in Akzo that there must either be some additional duty that the former employee owed to the employer – in addition to that spelled out in the noncompetition agreement – or the employer must prove that the former employee engaged in other improper acts beyond those associated with breaching the noncompetition agreement by competing against the former employer. In the majority of noncompetition disputes, however, such additional considerations will not exist. The Business Court reasoned that the former employer's real gripe is usually simply that the former employee is competing with it even though the employee entered a noncompetition agreement promising not to do so. The Business Court is wary of allowing employers to ""piggyback"" other claims on top of this underlying contractual violation. What the Future Holds Moving forward, business torts are not going to provide any additional relief in the context of typical noncompetition disputes. Also, courts are inherently skeptical of noncompetition agreements, given the restrictions such agreements impose on freedom of employment. Courts engage in searching analysis to find any supportable basis to reject such agreements as unreasonable based on their duration, territory, and scope. In light of the fact that business tort claims will often be dismissed, it is vitally important to employers that proper, unassailably reasonable noncompetition agreements are in place. If an employer has a valid and enforceable noncompetition agreement, it will be able to successfully assert its right to stop any violations of the agreement and/or collect appropriate damages from the former employee. If not, the former employer may find its business tort claims dismissed by the court, only to discover later that it is also unable to obtain full relief under its noncompetition agreement. Trade Secret Misappropriation Claims for trade secret misappropriation often arise in the context of noncompetition disputes when an employee has taken commercially-valuable information from the former employer and then uses it to compete against the former employer. The North Carolina Trade Secrets Protection Act defines a trade secret as information that ""derives independent actual or potential commercial value from not being generally known or readily ascertainable"" and ""is the subject of [reasonable] efforts…to maintain its secrecy."" If someone acquires, discloses, or uses a trade secret without the proper authority or consent, the owner of the trade secret can bring a lawsuit for misappropriation. In the same Business Court decision discussed above (and in another case this past February), the Court dismissed a claim for trade secret misappropriation based on the failure of the former employer to identify the trade secrets with ""sufficient particularity."" The employer had accused the former employee of misappropriating ""proprietary formulas, methodologies, customer and pricing data and other confidential information concerning…fiberglass door coating products."" These cases continue a growing trend in which North Carolina courts dismiss trade secret claims based on a lack of ""sufficient particularity. ""These Business Court trade secret decisions provide important lessons for North Carolina employers. First, it is important to know exactly what information the employer considers a trade secret. Such identification will help the employer in placing the appropriate restrictions on the distribution of the information, including monitoring exactly which employees should have access to it. Second, North Carolina courts are becoming increasingly skeptical of general business information being declared a trade secret – including basic customer information and sales data. Not all information used by a business is a trade secret. Businesses can rely only on having valid legal claims for specific types of information that they identify and treat as trade secrets. Much like claims based on the general business torts discussed above, the success of claims for trade secret misappropriation is likely to be more limited moving forward. Conclusion Noncompetition disputes are a fairly common occurrence in today's fluid labor markets. Business torts provide valid claims in various situations, but North Carolina courts are now indicating that such claims will be ineffective in general noncompetition disputes. Generalized claims for trade secrets also will be less successful. Employers need to be aware that the law is treating these claims with increasing skepticism and that this trend reinforces the need to comply with what have always been good business practices: Ensuring that any noncompetition agreements are properly drafted and valid under North Carolina law;Identifying what specific information constitutes true trade secrets; and,Taking reasonable steps to protect that information.-- © 2018 Ward and Smith, P.

They form the family Tapiridae. The only living genus is Tapirus. The first tapirids appeared in the Eocene epoch, and by the Oligocene they looked similar to the present-day species. For much of their history, tapirs were spread across the Northern Hemisphere. The northern species became extinct as recently as 10,000 years ago.

They weigh between 150 - 300 kg / 330 - 700 lb. They have a rounded body and very short stubby tails. Tapirs have hoofed toes, with four toes on the front feet and three toes on the hind feet. The Tapir's upper lip and nose have formed a short trunk, and they have a long tongue. Tapirs have a short fur, with colors that are reddish-brown to grey to nearly black. Exceptions are the Mountain Tapir and the Asian Tapir. The Mountain Tapir has longer wooly fur. The Asian Tapir has a black front part and legs, and a white middle part and back. All baby tapirs have brown fur, with lighter stripes and dots for camouflage. Tapirs cannot see very well, but they have good hearing and a very good sense of smell. Tapirs also swim very well. Habitat [ change | change source]

Life [ change | change source]Tapirs are active at night. They eat leaves, fruit, berries, vegetables and nuts. Tapirs live alone. After a pregnancy of about 13 months, the female gives birth to a single baby. After half a year the baby starts to lose the baby-coloring of its fur. When the young tapir is one year old it looks like an adult tapir, and it leaves its mother. Tapirs become mature when they are 4 years old. Tapirs can become 25 - 30 years old.

what is alloy c

Alloy C22Definition - What does Alloy C22mean? The alloy C22 is a nickel-chromium-molybdenum-tungsten alloy with outstanding resistance to pitting, stress-corrosion cracking and crevice corrosion. It has a superior resistance to a wide range of chemicals, seawater, brine solutions, oxidizing and reducing media.

Alloy C22

In addition, it has good weldability and resistance to intergranular attack, making it ideal for chemical processing equipment, paper processing, marine, power and waste disposal industries. The alloy C22 is also known as Inconel Alloy 22, AL 22, Hastelloy C 22 or Nicrofer 5621. Corrosionpedia explains Alloy C22The alloy C22 percentage composition is Carbon .005, Cobalt - 1.5, Chromium 22, Iron - 3, Manganese - 3, Molybdenum - 13, Nickel - 56, Silicon - 05, Vanadium 0.25 and Tungsten 3%. The Nickel-Chromium-Molybdenum-Tungsten alloy has a better overall corrosion resistance compared to most Ni-Cr-Mo alloys. The iron, chromium, molybdenum and tungsten content enhance the material's resistance to uniform and localized corrosion in a wide range of environments including flowing and stagnant sea water. The alloying elements contribute to the resistance to wide variety of industrial chemicals, oxidizing and reducing media. The high chromium concentration contributes to the resistance to oxidizing media, while the tungsten and molybdenum increases the resistance to the reducing media. Alloy C22 characteristics: Resistant to stress-corrosion cracking, pitting, crevice corrosion Outstanding resistance to oxidizing and reducing media High resistance to chemical process environments, ferric acids, seawater, acetic anhydride, brine solutions, etc. Grain-boundary precipitates not formed in the weld heat-affected zone Excellent weldability The moderate-to-difficult to machine alloy work hardens rapidly, generates a lot of heat and may weld to the cutting tool surface, while its high shear strength may cause it to resist metal removal. It is, however, to be adequately machined using the conventional methods. The alloy has good ductility and therefore easily cold worked. However, since it is stiffer than the austenitic stainless steels, more energy is required for the cold forming. Available forms are sheet, plate, bar, pipe, tubing, strip, wire, billet and covered electrodes, seamless pipe, welded pipe, seamless tube, welded tube, forgings, fittings and flanges. The alloy’s resistance to corrosion in strongly acidic, and oxidizing environments makes it suitable for a wide variety of process equipment. Some of the areas where it is used include: Chemical process industries Galvanizing line equipment Chlorination systems Acid production Complex acid and chemical environments Overalloy filler wire and in weld overlay consumables The alloy should, however, not be used in service temperatures exceeding 1250° F, otherwise detrimental phases may form at the higher temperatures.

most used automation program

Automation Framework Support: Another factor to consider a programming language for automation is the support availability. For instance, since Java is the most commonly used language for automation, it has a significant amount of Selenium Java users and hence more automation support in Selenium. On the other hand, Python along with C# probably has the least automation support for Selenium so it will be very hard to find help if needed.

Which programming language do I use for Automation? Posted on March 4, 2014 by Ashok Tulachan — Leave a comment Courtesy from blog.utest.com As technology has changed drastically, the importance of Automation has also propagated exponentially. As per salesforce.com, about 1 million browser tests run every day in 50,000 VM’s. If you just think about it, that’s a lot of automated tests in one day but with the cloud computing business scale that sales force provides, it can definitely be a necessity for the company. During the Selenium meet-up at Sanjose, Greg Wester from Salesforce.com stated that the quality assurance at sales force is entirely dependent on automation that means no manual testing is done at all except few exceptions. Now and then, I have been asked from my fellow colleagues about the best programming language to learn automation or to apply automation at work. My immediate answer always tends to be: “It depends”. It’s a complicated question and depends on lot of factors which I have attempted to describe below. Tool: All automation tools are developed by certain programming language and therefore there is need to learn the programming language that the tools support. For instance, if you are using Quick Test Pro (QTP), the primary language that you need to learn is VB Script. Similarly, if you are using Test Studio, then you will need to learn C# or VB. NET. However if you use Selenium then you have variety of options to choose from which are C#, Java, PHP, Python, Ruby and Java Script. Each language has its own advantages and disadvantages so it’s very hard to decide which one is better than another. Project Framework: Although this factor can be very debatable but still many companies tend to use the same language that the developers use to develop the application. In most companies, Java is the commonly used language and therefore the QA Managers tend to use the same programming language with the concept that there is help when needed from the developers. However some QA teams tend to use different language that they think suits the most disregarding the language that the company uses to design the application. Team Knowledge: In my opinion, this factor plays a great role on determining the tool and the language for automation. If all or many QA Automation Engineers feels comfortable with any particular language, then that particular language should be opted for automation. Any new Automation engineers can be recruited with the language that was selected by the team. Personally, I have worked with many different teams which used variety of languages such as C#, Java and Ruby as the team opted for the language that they feel the whole team was comfortable.

Unless the automation engineers are expert in certain programming language, it is very important to consider the automation tool support especially for Open source tools such as selenium while deciding the programming language for automation. If you consider all the factors highlighted above, it can be very useful for deciding the favorable programming language for the team. Since people favor different programming language, there is not a single jackpot winner programming language that satisfies all your needs.

highest dosage of aspirin

on. Dosage of Aspirin For adults doses of 300 to 1000 mg are generally taken four times a day for fever or arthritis, with a maximum dose of 4000 mg (4 grams) a day. The correct dose of aspirin depends on the disease or condition that is being treated.

Aspirin Facts, Warnings and Information

A - A +Aspirin Facts, Warnings and Information What is Aspirin? Aspirin, or acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) is a salicylate drug often used as an analgesic to relieve minor aches and pains, antipyretic to reduce fever, and as an anti-inflammatory. Aspirin has been used to reduce pain and inflammation for over a century. Evidence is rapidly growing that supports aspirin's use in lowering the rates of heart attacks, stroke, colon cancer and even Alzheimer's disease. The main undesirable side effects of aspirin are gastrointestinal distress, including stomach ulcers and bleeding, and tinnitus, especially in higher doses. Aspirin Uses An over the counter medication, aspirin typically used to reduce swelling, redness, pain, and fever, caused by various problems such as arthritis, infections, and headaches. In some cases, a physician will prescribe aspirin as a method for treating gout. Various studies have shown that aspirin can prevent blood clots as well as a stroke or heart attack. Some studies conducted have shown that aspirin can also work in preventing some forms of cancers. Aspirin comes in several forms powders, tablets, suppositories, chewable tablets, capsules, and extended-release tablets. While it is an over the counter medication, readily available for use, if your physician prescribes aspirin for your treatment, you will need to take it exactly as prescribed. While, aspirin works well to relieve pain and has been shown to reduce instances of stroke, heart attack, and even some cancers, you need to make sure you know the downsides of taking aspirin as well. Some people develop severe allergies to aspirin, which include ibuprofen, and should be discussed with your physician. Aspirin Facts Aspirin officially has a place in the Smithsonian Institute and is a mainstay in just about every family's medicine cabinet and first aid kit. A recent study suggests as many as one percent of air travelers suffer from deep vein thrombosis (DVT) due to prolonged sitting during long flights. It's been suggested that a low-dose aspirin taken before traveling any distance longer than four hours can reduce the potential for DVT. A daily low-dose aspirin therapy is commonly prescribed to adults to prevent heart attack and stroke and help improve blood flow to the heart. The National Heart Foundation reports that patients who took low-dose aspirin had a 26% reduction in the risk of a non fatal heart attack, 25% reduction in the risk of stroke and 13% reduction in the risk of death compared to similar patients who didn't take aspirin. In the event a heart attack or stroke does occur, taken immediately, aspirin can reduce their severity. Small daily doses of aspirin have proven to be effective in reducing the chances of mini-strokes (in which clogged blood vessels prevent sufficient oxygen from reaching the brain). The latest advancement in aspirin involves a no-swallow tablet that dissolves through the mouth, thus reducing the risk of ulcers and gastrointestinal bleeding. Aspirin may reduce the risk of heart disease in individuals with diabetes. Evidence shows aspirin can slow the progression of colon cancer, and preliminary data suggests that regular aspirin use may prevent certain cancers from occurring at all. Population-based studies report that an aspirin a day will either slow the progression or even prevent dementia, such as Alzheimer's disease. There is some evidence that aspirin may increase gall bladder motility and thus be effective in treating gall bladder disease. An Australian study suggests that aspirin may guard against severe periodontal disease by protecting the fibers and ligaments around the teeth. Fast Absorbing Aspirin Look for a product that dissolves in the mouth instead of the stomach. This allows the aspirin to enter the blood stream within three to five minutes versus the 30 minutes to an hour for regular aspirin, quickly inhibiting platelet aggregation (blood thinning). An acceptable dosage for 'low dose' aspirin is about 81 milligrams. Look for a sugar free product that can be safely used by diabetics.50% of regular low dose aspirin users do not receive noteworthy blood thinning benefits. Make sure your product claims exceptional anti-clotting cardio protecti

For the prevention of myocardial infarction in someone with documented or suspected coronary artery disease, doses as low as 75 mg daily (or possibly even lower) are sufficient. Cautions and Side Effects of taking Aspirin As with all medications, aspirin has some side effects. Common side effects include stomach pain, vomiting, or nausea. Severe side effects includes ringing of the ears, hearing loss, black or bloody stools, skin rash, drowsiness, confusion, dizziness, or breathing issues. Any of these severe side effects are cause to immediately contact your physician. In children under 16 years of age, aspirin is no longer used to control flu-like symptoms or the symptoms of chickenpox, due to the risk of Reye's syndrome. In some cases, large doses of aspirin typically found in over the counter aspirin products can cause stomach discomfort or gastrointestinal bleeding. For this reason, a low dose, fast absorbing aspirin product is recommended. If you are a diabetic patient, you should know that if you are taking regular strength aspirin at eight tablets or more each day, it could have an affect on your urine sugar test results. You should speak with your physician about how you should properly monitor you sugar when taking an aspirin regimen. Talk to your physician about any possible disorders or ailments you currently have before taking aspirin such as nasal polyps, Hodgkin's disease, gout, liver disease, kidney disease, asthma, ulcers, bleeding problems, hemophilia, diabetes, or anemia. Pregnant women within their third trimester or those that are breastfeeding should avoid taking aspirin. Some drugs might have adverse interactions when combined with aspirin. Some of these drugs include vitamins, valproic acid, Azid, methrotrexate, or any other medications prescribed for high blood pressure, gout, or diabetes. Some others include prednisone, hydrocortisone, dexamethasone, cortisone, and blood thinners. One week prior to any type of surgery, which includes dental work, you should avoid taking aspirin, because aspirin works to thin the blood. Aspirin causes prolonged bleeding after operations for up to 10 days. Non-coated aspirin can cause stomach upset so you should take it with food or milk. People living in tropical-weather countries should discontinue use while symptoms or suspicion of Dengue Fever exist, due to an irreversible syndrome relating aspirin and that disease.


what is the cause of myoma?

"The Cause of Uterine Fibroid Tumors (Myomas)How to avoid the cause of uterine fibroid tumors (myomas)Uterine fibroid tumors ( myomas ) are caused by estrogen dominance. Estrogen dominance is too much estrogen relative to progesterone in your body. Synthetic chemicals in our foods, body lotions, laundry detergent, and some foods in our environment mimic estrogens that encourage uterine fibroid tumors ( myomas ).

It is a tug of war between estrogen and progesterone. If estrogen wins then you get uterine fibroid tumors ( myomas ). The solution is to take Natural Progesterone and cut out Estrogen in your environment.by Elizabeth Smith, M. D. The cause of uterine fibroid tumors ( myomas ) according to Dr. Lee, a Norwegian, is estrogen dominance. What does this mean? It means that women are getting too much estrogen relative to progesterone. Estrogen, in general, tells your body cells to proliferate. Progesterone tells your body cells to slow down. Progesterone says that your cells should mature and NOT reproduce. The solution to getting rid of your uterine fibroma is to get rid of the estrogen in your life and take natural progesterone to oppose the estrogen in your life. So where does this excess estrogen come from? New research that has come to light during the past 5-10 years has shown that synthetic chemicals can mimic estrogen. Chemical Foreign Estrogens (Xenoestrogens)Around the world, there are approximately 100,000 different synthetic chemicals on the market. Some of them mimic estrogen in the human body. One classic estrogen mimic is DDT. In 1950, two Syracuse University biologists, in an experiment, gave injections of DDT to baby roosters. The roosters grew up looking like hens. Unfortunately, the U. S. still produces 96 tons of DDT a year (in 1991) and exports it to third world countries. Then we consume DDT on imported produce. DDT is stored in the fat, notably the breast fat. The breast fat may concentrate a form of DDT (DDE) up to 700 times than that of the blood. Blood levels of a form of DDT can typically be measured in the blood at several parts to tens of parts per billion. When I first saw levels of parts per billion, I thought it was too low to worry about. Unfortunately, our human body operates on tens of parts per trillion. In other words, some of these chemical estrogens may be found routinely at levels one hundred times the concentration of our own hormones. Imagine a baseball glove representing a receptor for estrogen. Think of the glove waiting to catch a ball. DDT is represented by one hundred shiny plastic balls. One watermelon representing your human estradiol. Which one does the glove catch? More Chemical Foreign Estrogens ( Xenoestrogens)New research by Soto, M. D. at Tufts University medical school in 1991 showed that chemical additives that make plastics last longer have estrogen stimulating effects on breast cancer cells in the test tube at parts per billion. Plastic test tubes with a new plastisizer stimulated breast cancer cells to grow wildly. Stanford University professors found a similar effect from an additive, bis-phenol A, used in polycarbonate water bottles. Bis-phenol A is also used in dental filling composites. Spanish researchers even found that some of the varnish sprayed in food cans (to prevent the ""metal"" taste) leached into the food. This slightly tainted food contained more than enough estrogen mimicking chemical to stimulate breast cancer cells in the test tube to grow rapidly. The above chemicals with estrogen mimicking effects are a class of chemicals known as alkylphenols. English researchers studied a profusion of hermaphrodite trout in the English rivers. They found that thesewage effluent draining into the river contained detergent breakdown productsthat stimulated estrogen receptors creating the hermaphrodite trout. Sumpter hypothesizes that it could be a single family of chemicals or a mixture of detergents, pesticides and plasticizers. Female trout were found in the rivers. No male trout were found - only trout halfway between male and female. Some alligator populations are having trouble reproducing because the male penises are too small (blush!). The female alligator ovaries had used up all their eggs prematurely (""burned out""). Researchers have implicated chemical hormone disrupters. Agricultural Foreign Estrogens Agriculture typically uses artificial estrogen compounds to fatten up cattle and chicken quickly. Estrogen also stimulates the retention of water giving a heavier weight and tender meat. Some proponents say that the artificial estrogen compounds disappear from the urine in a matter of days and the animals are then free of artificial hormones. Other opponents say the artificial estrogens are stored in the fat and then eaten by consumers. The European Union has banned U. S. and Canadian beef from entering the E. U. for 12 years citing estrogen in the meat and the probable increase of breast cancer. Are they right? Or merely being protectionist as the U. S. claims. In 1970's and 1980's, an epidemic of early puberty girls as young as a year old in Puerto Rico began menstruating after eating meat and dairy products with high amounts of estrogens. Some young boys developed breasts.15% Girls aged 8 sprouting pubic hair and breast buds? Women are now beginning to menstruate in the United States at age 10. The age of menarche used to be 16. Authorities have insisted that this is normal for a population with good nutrition. Is it? Herman-Giddons in a landmark study done in 1997 published in Pediatrics showed that out of 17,000 girls, 15% aged 8 years old began to show signs of puberty in the United States. See the Time Magazine article! The Time Magazine article points a finger at chemicals in our environment that mimic estrogen. Chemical Phobia? One study showed that elevated levels of DDT and PCB were not markedly higher in women that had breast cancer. An editorial confidently labeled the new concerns as chemical phobia. However, these are only two chemicals. We don't know much about chemical interactions nor all the other chemicals which are as yet untested. The Bottom Line In the last 5-10 years, new research has shown that certain chemicals in modern society do mimic estrogen in the test tube. These chemicals can come from sources that we previously thought were inert such as plastics that might be used to package food and detergents. Some > animals in the environmentalso show evidence of hormone disruption. Presently, we do not know what these test tube studies mean for us. Human bodies can act differently. Unfortunately, only a small fraction of chemicals have been tested for estrogen mimicking effects, and these chemicals are active at infinitesimal small quantities way below what was previously thought to affect humans. Estrogen mimicking chemicals can also act synergistically to amplify each other or even block each other. This is widely known, but exact synergistic reactions and levels at which they occur are virtually unknown. Chemicals in our environment having estrogenic effects known asxenoestrogens are now being investigated by the Environmental Protection Agency. Since a flurry of research activity in 1999 until the present, scientists are now realizing that hormones that disrupt estrogen are not the whole story. Testosterone, progesterone, glucocorticoids (stress hormones), retinoids (infant development) and thyroid hormone systems are also disrupted. We have only begun to scratch the surface. A specific list is here. "

After playing two shows at Madison Square Garden as part of his fall 1980 Uprising Tour, he collapsed while jogging in NYC's Central Park. The remainder of the tour was subsequently cancelled.

I dont smoke marijuana but i also dont believe it is bad. It is a safe anxiety treatment, id rather the people i love smoking pot for stress and anxiety and depression rather than them taking the god awful addicting drugs like xanax, prozac, zoloft and all those things, they all have side effects of POSSIBLY MORE DEPRESSION AND SUICIDAL THOUGHTS not to mention if someone drives after taking any of those pills they will probably fall asleep driving, and they cant drink while taking any, even socially because of the interaction, well with marijuana there is no interaction dangers. and if you drive on it you will probable drive better than you do when you aren't smoking pot lol it makes you concentrate and focus more on things. and the federal govnerment already said they wont stop any US STATE FROM LEGALIZING POT. that is very telling, our own federal government doesnt believe pot is dangerous and are pretty much saying they got no problem legalizing it but only if a state wants that kinda vote to take place thent he federal government will not do anything to stop it from passing, as long as it gets the popular vote.

Capitalizing on those concerns, a young Senator named Joseph Mc Carthy made a public accusation that more than two hundred “card-carrying” communists had infiltrated the United States government. Though eventually his accusations were proven to be untrue, and he was censured by the Senate for unbecoming conduct, his zealous campaigning ushered in one of the most repressive times in 20th-century American politics. Sen. Joseph Mc Carthy While the House Un-American Activities Committee had been formed in 1938 as an anti-Communist organ, Mc Carthy’s accusations heightened the political tensions of the times. Known as Mc Carthyism, the paranoid hunt for infiltrators was notoriously difficult on writers and entertainers, many of whom were labeled communist sympathizers and were unable to continue working. Some had their passports taken away, while others were jailed for refusing to give the names of other communists. The trials, which were well publicized, could often destroy a career with a single unsubstantiated accusation.

In all, three hundred and twenty artists were blacklisted, and for many of them this meant the end of exceptional and promising careers. Playwright Arthur Miller During this time there were few in the press willing to stand up against Mc Carthy and the anti-Communist machine. Among those few were comedian Mort Sahl, and journalist Edward R. Murrow, whose strong criticisms of Mc Carthy are often cited as playing an important role in his eventual removal from power. By 1954, the fervor had died down and many actors and writers were able to return to work. Though relatively short, these proceedings remain one of the most shameful moments in modern U. S. history.

what do wolves and dogs have in common

Your pet dog may not show a strong physical resemblance to its wild relative, the wolf, but they have a lot in common -- from DNA to pregnancy and birth, social needs and ways of communicating.

How Are Wolves & Dogs the Same?

Wolves share many similarities with their domesticated relatives.

One Species Wolves and dogs belong to the same genus (Canis), although they are different species (Canis lupus for the wolf and Canis domesticus for the dog). DNA evidence has shown that domestic dogs trace their ancestry to wolves, although some breeds are many more generations removed than others. When dogs and wolves mate, their offspring, called wolfdogs, also can reproduce -- another indication of how closely related these animals are. Because wolves remain undomesticated, however, dogs with wolf in their immediate ancestry have special requirements and needs that you should be aware of before adopting one. For example, they’re often more difficult to train, and they require a higher-protein diet than most dog foods provide. Pregnancy, Birth and Pups Pregnancy in wolves and dogs lasts around 63 days, or nine weeks. (If your dog’s pregnancy extends past 65 days, take her to the vet.) Wolves give birth in dens, and you should create a similar birthing environment for your pregnant dog. A small box with a soft blanket or a layer of newspapers provides a secure space for the mother and pups. Wolves and dogs are born with their eyes shut; the eyes open 10 days to two weeks later. Weaning occurs between six and eight weeks. Wolf pups venture out of the den when they’re around eight weeks old, which is the same age at which dog pups can be removed safely from their mother. Social Needs Wolves and dogs need social interactions to thrive. Wolves live in packs, working together to hunt, establish territory and raise their pups. Dogs usually meet their social needs with you, their human family, and with other animals in your home. While dogs are known for their loyalty, wolfdogs often form even stronger bonds with their humans. Welcoming either animal into your home means a lifetime commitment to meeting your pet's social as well as physical needs. Communication While wolves howl more frequently than they bark, both animals use vocal communication to express needs, convey warnings, invite another animal or human to play, and talk to fellow pack members. Dog breeds with close ties to their wolf ancestors, such as huskies and malamutes, also use howling as a means of communication. Wolves and dogs also share body language; they perform play bows when they want to have fun, chase each other and wag their tails. They also use the same postures to show dominance, aggression and submission. Getting to know your dog's vocal and physical signals can help you develop a stronger relationship.
