Pupil Distance (PD)  is measured in millimetres and even a slight variation can cause a number of vision and eye health problems due to inacurately fitting of Distance Vitror (DV). PD must be paralel to DV, therefore  PD measurements must be committed throughtly. It requires comprehensive knowledge and technical skill. With the popularity of buying glasses online, a number of websites have come up with do-it-yourself measurements or apps that will take this measurement for you. The problem is that these are not scientifically accurate measurements and are not being performed by professionals. There is a large margin of error and buyers could end up with glasses that hurt their vision—not correct it.This research is aimed to show ideal procedure that must be committed in producing glasses to avoid inacurate PD measurement. The researcher uses library aprroach to gain related data and informations, then discuss the problem and solution in descriptive approach.

BACKGROUND Electronic methods are increasingly being used to manage health-related data amongst sporting populations. Collection of such data permits analysis of injury and illness trends, improves early detection of injuries and illnesses, collectively referred to as health problems, and provides evidence to inform prevention strategies. The Athlete Management System (AMS) has been employed across a range of sports to monitor health. Australian combat athletes train across the country without dedicated national medical/sports science teams to monitor and advocate for their health. Employing an internet-based system, such as the AMS, may provide an avenue to increase visibility of health problems experienced by combat athletes, and deliver key information to stakeholders detailing where prevention programs may be targeted. OBJECTIVE The objectives of this paper are to: 1) report on the feasibility of utilising the AMS to collect longitudinal injury and illness data of combat sport athletes, and 2) describe the type, location, severity and recurrence of injuries and illnesses that the cohort of athletes experience across a 12-week period. METHODS Twenty-six elite and developing athletes from four Olympic combat sports (boxing, judo, taekwondo and wrestling) were invited to participate in this study. Engagement with the AMS system was measured and collected health problems (injuries/illnesses) were coded using Orchard Sport Injury Classification System (OSICS, version 10.1) and International Classification of Primary Care (version 2). RESULTS Despite over 160 contacts, athlete engagement with online tools was poor with only 13% compliance across the 12 week period. No taekwondo or wrestling athletes were compliant. Despite low overall engagement, a large number of injuries/illness were recorded across the 11 athletes who entered data: 22 unique injuries, 8 unique illnesses, 30 recurrent injuries and two recurrent illnesses. The most frequent injuries were to the knee in boxing (n=41) and thigh in judo (n=9). In this cohort, judo players experienced more severe, but less frequent, injuries than did boxers, yet sustained more illnesses. In 97% of cases, athletes in this cohort continued to train irrespective of their health problems. CONCLUSIONS Amongst athletes who reported injuries, many reported multiple conditions indicating that there is a need for health monitoring in Australian combat sport. A number of factors may have influenced engagement with the AMS, including access to internet, the design of the system, coach views on the system, previous experiences with the system and the existing culture within Australian combat sports. To increase engagement, there may need to be a requirement for sports staff to provide relevant feedback on data entered into the system. Until the barriers are addressed, it is not feasible to implement the system in its current form across a larger cohort of combat athletes.

At present, keyword-based techniques allow information retrieval (IR) but are unable to capture the conceptualizations in users' information needs and contents. The response to this has been semantic search computing with commendable success. Surprisingly, it is still difficult to evaluate Semantic IR (SIR) and understand the user contexts. The absence of a standardized cognitive user-centred evaluative paradigm (CUcEP) further exacerbates these challenges. This chapter provides the state-of-the-art on IR and SIR evaluation and a systematic review of contexts. Appropriate user-centred theories and the proposed evaluative framework with its integrated-context, web analytic conception, and related data analytic technique are presented. A descriptive approach is adopted, with the conclusion that multiple contexts are essential in SIR evaluation since “searching by meaning” is a multi-dimensional cognitive conception, hence the need to consider the impact of context dynamicity. Finally, the foregrounded semantic items will be applied to standardize the CUcEP in future.

Abstract Objectives Previous research supports that subjective views on aging (VoA), such as older subjective age (SA) and negative attitudes toward own aging (ATOA) go along with negative outcomes. A differentiated treatment of health and disease as antecedents of VoA is largely lacking. Therefore, our objective was to estimate the relationship between generally framed physical, affective, and cognitive health as well as specific diseases and VoA, operationalized both as SA and ATOA. Methods Data was drawn from the ActiFE-Ulm study for which a representative sample of community-dwelling older people (65-90 years) was recruited at baseline. Follow-ups were conducted 7.7 years (median) after recruitment (N=526). Health and disease related data at baseline, based on established assessment procedures for epidemiological studies, were regressed on VoA (1-item SA indicator, 5-item ATOA scale) measures at follow-up. Results Reported severity of affective health problems such as depression was the strongest general risk-factor for both older SA and negative ATOA. Also, some but not all major diseases considered were associated with VoA. Notably, back pain predicted negative ATOA, while cancer was associated with older SA. Rheumatism was linked with more negative ATOA along with higher SA. Throughout analyses, explained variance in ATOA was considerably higher than in SA. Conclusions Affective health problems, such as depression, should be regarded as a major correlate of subjective aging views. Interestingly, diseases do not have to be life-threatening to be associated with older SA or negative ATOA.

Scores on the Massachusetts Teacher Tests of reading and writing are highly unreliable. The tests' margin of error is close to double to triple the range found on well-developed tests. A person retaking the MTT several times could have huge fluctuations in their scores even if their skill level did not change significantly. In fact, the 9 to 17 point margin of error calculated for the tests represents more than 10 percent of the grading scale (assumed to be 0 to 100). The large margin of error means there is both a high false-pass rate and a high false-failure rate. For example, a person who received a score of 72 on the writing test could have scored an 89 or a 55 simply because of the unreliability of the test. Since adults' reading and writing skills do not change a great deal over several months, this range of scores on the same test should not be possible. While this test is being touted as an accurate assessment of a person's fitness to be a teacher, one would expect the scores to accurately reflect a test-taker's verbal ability level. In addition to the large margin of error, the MTT contain questionable content that make them poor tools for measuring test-takers' reading and writing skills. The content and lack of correlation between the reading and writing scores reduces the meaningfulness, or validity, of the tests. The validity is affected not just by the content, but by a host of factors, such as the conditions under which tests were administered and how they were scored. Interviews with a small sample of test-takers confirmed published reports concerning problems with the content and administration.

Based on microbiological aspects, product of an animal food safe to be consumption if not contain microbial pathogens, microbial that can cause health problems of humans to whom comsume it, one of the pathogenic bacteria that often found on beef is a salmonella sp. Research aimed to determine the existence of bacteria Salmonella sp from slaughterhouse, abattoir and traditional market in Sangatta East Kutai regency. Parameter research parameter of observation was to determine whether there are bacteria Salmonella sp (positive / negative) on beef samples and how much percentage (%) the existence of Salmonella sp on beef samples. obtained data for each test were analyzed by descriptive approach. Based on research results on 20 beef samples both from slaughterhouses, abattoir, and sold in Sangatta traditional market not indicate the existence of bacteria Salmonella sp (negative), possibility it is because growth of bacteria Salmonella sp still low and does not have the ability to compete with bacteria lactic acid (Streptococcus, Lactobacillus, Aeromonas, Acenetobacter, Pseudomonas) so that growth will be obstructed.


Arrhenius has pointed out that the phenomenon of hæmolysis may be described by the qt. rule. In this investigation it has been found that this rule is quite insufficient to describe the relation between the quantity of a hæmolytic agent and the time which such quantity takes to produce hæmolysis, unless a large margin of error be admitted. Since in some of the examples quoted by Arrhenius, the end point was not complete hæmolysis, but a certain percentage, it is easy to see that the difficulties of investigation account for the fact that the discrepancy between results given by experiment and those obtained by the use of the qt. rule has been overlooked. Further it is recognised that this rule is not of general application; being inapplicable, for instance, in the case of sodium oleate. In order to remove the difficulty of investigation, a technique of great accuracy has been introduced; the results of experiments will be found to require a description other than that furnished by the qt. rule. Special Apparatus Required . (1) A set of pipettes to deliver 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 c. c. (2) Pipettes, 1 c. c. capacity, graduated in 0·01 of a cubic centimetre. (3) Burettes and pipettes of convenient capacity, and tared flasks of 50 and 100 c. c. capacity. All volumetric apparatus must be certified, or preferably calibrated by the experimenter. (4) Tubes, about 1 × 3 inches, with flat bottoms for preference; these have rubber stoppers, with one perforation for the passage of a thermometer. (5) About twelve thermometers, graduated from 0° C. to 50° C. and capable of being read to 1/10 of a degree: these must all be checked against a standard instrument. The bulbs should be small, and the scale arranged so that it shall be above the level of the stopper of the tube when the thermometer is in position. (6) Three water baths, for maintaining temperatures at about 3° C., 12° C. and 30°—50° C. respectively. These should each be capable of containing about six of the tubes above mentioned in such a way that the degree of hæmolysis in the contents of the tubes may be seen without removing the tubes from the bath. The baths are arranged so that the contents of the tubes are seen against a screen lit by artificial light.

The source-criticism2 of Diodorus XVI has been dominated by the principle of argument from detail. Thus, if two details in Diodorus' text are found to conflict, they are assumed to derive from different sources and, if similar, from the same source; and, where a fragment of an ancient historian is found to resemble a passage in Diodorus, that historian is assumed to be the source employed by Diodorus in that passage; finally, when a sufficient mosaic of such details is pieced together, general divisions are drawn to embrace each separate detail. But this principle is of questionable value: for it implies the tacit assumption that Diodorus made no mistake in compressing or transcribing detail, added no colour himself, and could only have derived a given detail, described in a given manner, from the one ancient historian whose description of that detail is preserved. When one remembers that Diodorus is a careless and unintelligent compiler of a compendious narrative, who aimed like Ephorus at lending each book a unity, and that the fragments of the many historians whom Diodorus may have excerpted are very scanty, it is clear that this principle admits of a large margin of error.
