B-TREES B-tree is a tree data structure that keeps data sorted and allows searches, insertions, and deletions in logarithmic amortized time. The main idea of using B-Trees is to reduce the number of disk accesses. It is optimized for systems that read and write large blocks of data B- trees are: • Balanced – It is a self-balancing data structure, which means that performance can be guaranteed when B-Trees are utilized. • Broad –B-Trees are broad and expand horizontally instead of vertically.

Dr. Hunter: Hi Ryan, thank you for joining us so early. I wasn’t aware you were on the Pacific Time. I have some questions/concerns about the technology you are using in this study, because some of the cell based markers for a small population of subsets such as CD4/8, CD25? Ryan: You re correct, we know that sometimes it might be challenging to identify lymphocyte subsets, thus you have a large volume of blood collected in this study (up to 80cc). Our analysis is Flow cytometry based; we will

holding a b-boy stance in the South Bronx. A young boy holds his ground as his peers dance to the music, but as the break segment of the song awakens, the young boy rushes to the middle of the dance floor. As few people know, this is established the start of a worldwide phenomenon and lifestyle. Hip hop is a misunderstood culture that has been driven out from its roots by media and the new generation.

Hemophilia is the oldest known hereditary bleeding disorder. There are two types of hemophilia, A and B (Christmas Disease). Low levels or complete absence of a blood protein essential for clotting causes both. Patients with hemophilia A lack the blood clotting protein, factor VIII, and those with hemophilia B lack factor IX. A person with severe hemophilia has less than 1% of the normal amount of a clotting factor - either Factor VIII (8) or Factor IX (9). People without hemophilia have between

Survival in Auschwitz tells of the horrifying and inhuman conditions of life in the Auschwitz death camp as personally witnessed and experienced by the author, Primo Levi. Levi is an Italian Jew and chemist, who at the age of twenty-five, was arrested with an Italian resistance group and sent to the Nazi Auschwitz death camp in Poland in the end of 1943. For ten terrible months, Levi endured the cruel and inhuman death camp where men slaved away until it was time for them to die. Levi thoroughly

A concentration camp is where prisoners of war, enemy aliens, and political prisoners are detained and confined, typically under harsh conditions, or place or situation characterized by extremely harsh conditions. The first concentration camps were established in 1933 for confinement of opponents of the Nazi Party. The supposed opposition soon included all Jews, Gypsies, and certain other groups. By 1939 there were six camps: Dachau, Sachsenhausen, Buchenwald, Mauthausen, Flossenburg, and

People with 5-40% normal factor activity levels are considered mild and must be carefully prepared for any dental procedures or surgeries (Fallon 1276). Both factors IX and VIII are produced by genes located on the X chromosome, so hemophilia A and B are x-linked recessive diseases (Fallon 1277). They account for about 70% of all hemophilia cases while the remaining 30% develop the disease as a result of a spontaneous genetic mutation (Fallon 1276-77). One of the more famous cases of hemophilia dates

Hepatitis C has been referred to as a "Silent Epidemic," since it usually progresses slowly over many years. Most people who are infected with hepatitis C are not aware of any noticeable symptoms for as long as one to two decades after they are infected. In fact, by the time symptoms appear, the virus has probably already begun to damage the liver. If the liver is injured and stops functioning, death will always be the outcome (Lieber). Liver failure from chronic hepatitis C is one of the

hop and breakdancing by going to at a hip hop club at every week where I learned the basic skills of breaking like how to top-rock and six-step. B-boying is a form of hip hop dancing which is popularly known as breaking. It consists of top or up rock, footwork, spinning moves (power moves), and freeze. B-boying came from Bronx, NY. The term "B-boy" or "B-boying" was created

For example, a cult includes the Minoan Tree and Pillar Cult; the pillars and trees were sacred, however, they were not worshipped. He also goes on to explain about Minoan Deities, Mycenaean Gods and Linear B, and the ‘Dark Age’; he talks about the evidence that exists of Linear A and Linear B, such as the tablets recovered from Crete and Knossos. In section two, Burkert describes the different kinds of rituals and symbols; the bull was a type of symbol from the Hellenistic tradition, and there were
