Many persons like home dogs, cats and birds. They buy for them special cages, for example, large or small sometimes with trainers [1-9]. To keep the animal well we need to take a walk our dog rather for a long time. If you are an old person (woman or man) and if you have not good health and don’t have enough time to realize such procedure, there is a problem which is needed to solve. But in practice sometimes we either must stay at home or make this walk very short. In this case the dog begins to acquire the additional weight in a body. Moreover, all muckles in the dog’s body become too feeble. How to solve this problem correctly? There is one way to overcome this negative situation and help our dog to be strong and without any abundant weight if you are rather old and it is a difficult to have a long constitutional for a long time.

Typhoid is a life-threatening disease that has remained endemic in parts of Africa and Asia where its burden is elevated by the inefficiency of control efforts which have been hampered by lack of epidemiological data, among others. In Nigeria, such data is absent in most of the States like Gombe where the disease has been rife for a long time, hence, to bridge that knowledge gap, this study was set up to determine the host-associated risk factors for typhoid occurrence and recurrence in Gombe. A questionnaire that was designed and validated for this location was used to obtain data from 663 respondents using simple random sampling and analyzed using the Chi-square test for association and binomial logistic regression to obtain risk factors for typhoid occurrence and recurrence, respectively. The study revealed that occurrences were statistically significantly associated with the variables for vaccination (χ2 = 39.729, p < 0.01), having houseboy/girl (χ2 = 16.909, p < 0.01), typhoid patient at home (χ2 = 13.393, p < 0.01), hand washing before handling food (χ2 = 22.856, p < 0.01), consuming iced/frozen items (χ2 = 16.805, p < 0.01), boiling drinking water (χ2 = 49.633, p < 0.01), and eating commercially available foods/drinks (χ2 = 27.864, p < 0.01), while recurrences were statistically significantly predicted by „not sure of been vaccinated‟ (OR = 2.962, CI = 1.290 to 6.802, p < 0.01), „not having another typhoid patient at home‟ (OR = 1.799, CI = 0.998 to 3.244, p < 0.01), and „drinking unboiled water sometimes‟ (OR = 2.130, CI = 1.023 to 4.434, p < 0.01). It is believed that these findings will guide efforts by the Government for health interventions against typhoid in the study area, thus improving the quality of life for the population.

Happiness is a subjective assessment of individual wellbeing. Adolescents, especially secondary school students living in Islamic Boarding School, experience dramatic changes from learning at their dormitory with face-to-face teaching method to distance learning at home with minimum activities outside their houses. The survey was conducted on 111 respondents of students who had to return home due to the outbreaks of covid-19 pandemic for two months. The research found that the dramatic changes made them had difficulty to adapt new activities at home for a long time while studying independently through distance learning. Only a third of the sample felt happy during the online learning while the majority felt negative emotions such as boredom, unhappiness, and loneliness. The adolescents’ life satisfaction and community engagement significantly correlated with happiness although the size effects were medium. Female students also had lower happiness variables than males. To maintain their happiness, during the pandemic, most of them prefer activities that mostly trigger a sedentary lifestyle.

Relationship Of

Dehydration plays an important part in the pathology of a number of diseases. The loss of water may take place through the kidney (as it does in diabetic coma), the gut (as in pyloric stenosis, paralytic ileus, acute diarrhoea, and vomiting or cholera), the lungs and skin (as in hot dry atmospheres) or occasionally through other channels. This loss of water has been known for a very long time to be associated with loss of salt, but a study of the literature reveals considerable confusion of thought as to the relationship of one to the other. This is particularly well illustrated by the discussions of some of the experimental work on Addison’s disease. Much experimental work has been done on the lower animals to elucidate the pathology of the intestinal obstructions; diabetic coma has been studied to some extent, and in the last 5 years Addison’s disease has been produced and controlled experimentally in numerous rats, cats, and dogs. In every case, however, the salt or water deficiency is but a part of the picture. From the acute and dangerous nature of the human diseases and the complications they introduce it is particularly difficult to study the effects of severe water or salt deficiency in patients. Some work has been carried out on diabetic coma, which, however, presents water and salt loss in its most complicated form. No papers of any value have been found on severe uncomplicated salt deficiency. It was therefore decided to make a direct experimental attack on the question and normal human adults were selected as the most suitable subjects. The deficiency was produced by a salt free diet combined with sweating. Nature and Arrangement of the Experiments ( a ) The Subjects —One of the women students of this Hospital volunteered to be the subject for the first experiment, which was of a semi-quantitative nature and was intended to try out methods rather than get results. Mild deficiency only was produced because E. ceased to lose significant amounts of NaCl in her sweat after 4 or 5 days. Nevertheless, some interesting observations were made which will be discussed in their appropriate place, and the fact that this subject reacted to the experimental regime so differently from the others is a matter which may be of some importance and will be further investigated. The second and third experiments were done on two males, R. A. M. age 36, and R. B. N. age 24. In both experiments every reasonable precaution was taken to make the whole investigation as quantitative as possible. Both subjects were in good health when the experiments began and the observations were not upset by any “colds” or other minor pathological interferences. R. A. M. is normally an active man, fond of exercise, and gets enough of it throughout the year to keep himself physically fit. R. B. N. is a South African, who came to this country with a Rhodes Scholarship and is now a medical student. He takes enough regular exercise to keep in fair training.

Hand Writing

<p>Essentially writing is form of thinking on paper, and a way of learning. According to Winston Churchill, writing a book is an adventure. "To begin with, it is a toy and an amusement; then it becomes a mistress, and then it becomes a master, and then a tyrant. The last phase is that just as you are about to be reconciled to your servitude, you kill the monster, and fling him out to the public." On the other hand, writing could be a form of freedom by escaping the madness of a period, and reducing the anxiety. In many situations the authors write to save themselves, to survive as individuals.</p><p>Gheorghe Păun is an example of a person affirming his own existence by writing. He is a prolific writer with a huge number of papers: tens of scientific books, hundreds of articles, several novels, poems, and books on games. A list of his scientific publications is posted at http://www.imar.ro/~gpaun/papers.php [2], while his books are listed at http://www.imar. ro/~gpaun/books.php [1] His way of distributing information is not by speaking, but by writing. Gheorghe Păun did not like very much to teach in universities. He preferred a form of "teaching by researching", combining ideas with nice metaphors and distributing his knowledge in articles and books. In this way he wrote several papers having a high impact in the scientific community. His seminal paper "Computing with membranes" published in Journal of Computers and System Sciences in 2000 and his fundamental book on computation theory "Membrane Computing" (Springer, 2003) has over 1,000 citations [6] (and his author was recognized as an "ISI highly cited researcher" [5]). He has defined new branches, new theories. The field of membrane computing was initiated by Gheorghe Păun as a branch of natural computing [3]; P systems are inspired by the hierarchical membrane structure of eukaryotic cells [4]. An impressive handbook of membrane computing was published recently (2010) by Oxford University Press.</p><p> </p><p>After 1990 he becomes a traveling scientist, visiting several countries and receiving many research fellowships and awards. Fruitful scientific collaboration at Magdeburg University (Germany), and at University of Turku (Finland). The trio Gheorghe Păun, Grzegorz Rozenberg and Arto Salomaa is well-known for several successful books. The last years were spent in Spain, first in Tarragona and now in Sevilla. Several collaborations were possible during his trips, and there are over 100 co-authors from many countries. His scientific reputation is related to the large number of invited talks provided at many international conferences and universities. He is a member of the editorial boards for several international journals, corresponding member of the Romanian Academy (from 1997), and member of Academia Europaea (from 2006).<br /> It is not possible to understand the personality of Gheorghe Păun without mentioning his activity as writer of novels and poems; he is a member of the Romanian Writers Association for a long time. Another aspect of his life is related to the intellectual seduction of games; he was the promoter of GO in Romania, writing many books about GO and other "mathematical" games.</p><p><br /> Personally, I am impressed by the speed of his mind (it is enough to say few words about some new results, and he is able to complete quickly the whole approach), his wide-ranging curiosity and intelligence, rich imagination and humor, talent and passion. He is highly motivated by challenging projects, and work hard to conclude them successfully. There are very few scientists having such an interesting profile, and I am very happy to learn a lot from him.</p><p><br /> Celebrating his 60th birthday, we wish him a good health, long life, and new interesting achievements!</p>

The aims of this study were to observe the translation procedures to translate Sijalapen in Karonese Wedding Ceremony into English. The data of this study were found from the participant observation of the authors. There were six cultural terms in the groom’s party and five cultural terms in the bride’s party.  All together were 11 cultural terms and they were the lucky numbers for Karonese society. They refered to Karonese belief of ersada tendi ku rumah means have all souls gathered at home. If their souls are all at home, they believe that they all had good health. It was believed because they did the ceremony of perumah tendi. It was the ceremony of asking for their tendi at home. The qualitative research was done to collect the data and did the analysis. Translation analysis, cultural analysis and discourse analysis were applied in doing this study. The result shows that the problems of untranslatability occur in the process of translation the SL into the TL. Newmark’s translation procedures were not workable, instead, Sembiring and Panggabean’s familiar translation procedure were used to translate sijalapen in Karonese wedding ceremony into English. The authors would recommend the researchers on untranslatability texts to use Sembiring and Panggabean’s translation procedure to overcome their translation process problems.

Immobilization is a problem faced by patients with chronic illness, the patients is very weak and paralyzed patients in a long time. This study have purpose  to gain a deep understanding of the experience of families in caring for family members is immobilized with pressure sores at home. This study used qualitative methods. Participants are families who care for patients at home who are immobilized with pressure sores. Collecting data with in-depth interviews by means of instrument is the researcher's own self, written questions as an interview, used recording devices and used field notes.  Criterion sampling by taking 6 participants. Analysis of data used a phenomenological approach. The results showed that the family had a positive experience; Can be more patient, and assume that caring for a sick family member has its own challenges, being able to be with other families in caring for patients, being able to give affection and obligation as a child to parents can help take care of it. There was also an unpleasant (negative) family experience during the care of sick family members, the family felt tired, not strong and bored during patient care. The conclusion of the study is that families have positive and negative experiences in caring for family members with decubitus

Abstract This case report describes an unusual case of a 69-year-old man who had an aortic valve replacement with the Smeloff-Cutter aortic mechanical prosthesis for aortic valve regurgitation at the age of 18 years. Echocardiography revealed a well-suited and well-functioning mechanical prosthesis. Even though the patient did not take any anticoagulant therapy or anti-platelets agent for 12 years, he was in surprisingly good health. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time a mechanical ‘ball-in-cage’ valve prosthesis has lasted for such a long time without complications, although the patient has not been compliant with the anticoagulant therapy for 12 consecutive years.

This essay reveals some yet unexplored pages in the history of Russian-Slovenian relations. Based on materials in the Russian and Slovenian archives, the main features of the trips of Russian peasants, who were trainees of the Russian grain company, to practice in Slovenian lands are reconstructed. These visits were carried out with the aim of studying progressive methods of agriculture, which they would then be able to effectively apply at home. The organizer from the Slovenian side was the liberal politician and long-term župan (lord mayor) of Ljubljana, Ivan Hribar. Parties of Russian interns were sent to Slovenian lands in 1909 and 1912 and many of the trainees stayed abroad for one or two years. The main focus of this study is the analysis of the feedback of Russian peasants about their work and study in a foreign country and their impressions of the Slovenes. Reviews by the Russian peasants who were dispatched in 1909 were more favourable than those sent on the 1912 trip, which was for various reasons less successful. In general, the trainees who remained in the Slovenian lands for a long time acquired a lot of new knowledge and skills, which could then be successfully applied in Russia. Slovenes as a people, their culture, and their economic organization made a good impression on the Russian peasants. In addition, it was the peasants' first encounter with another world, and being close to the Slovenian people in language, culture, and traditions contributed to the expansion of their common horizons.
