Some Navy families are subject to unusual stress in that the active duty parent may be deployed for several months at a time. This study examined children and adolescents from Navy and civilian families who were admitted to a private psychiatric hospital. Deployment of the father placed Navy children and adolescents at risk for psychiatric hospitalization, but mainly in non-intact families wher...

In vitro antioxidant activities and neuronal cell protective effects of ethanol extract from roasted coffee beans were investigated. Colombia arabica coffee (Coffea arabica) green beans were roasted to give medium (230°C, 10 min), city (230°C, 12 min) and french (230°C, 15 min) coffee beans. Total phenolics in raw green beans, medium, city and french-roasted beans were 8.81±0.05, 9.77±0.03, 9.9...

a catalytic-kinetic method for the determination of selenium is proposed. alizarin navy blue is reduced by sodium sulfide to from a colorless product. the reaction is accelerated by trace amounts of se (iv), and can be followed by measuring the decrease in absorbance of the dye at 620nm and 30 °c by the fixed time method. selenium can be determined in the range of 0.004 — 0.12 1.1g.m1-1 . ...

The beans function BG(x) of a connected graph G is defined as the maximum number of points on G such that any pair of points have distance at least x > 0. We shall exhibit lower and upper bounds of BG(x) for x < 1 and a class of graphs which have the same number of edges and whose beans functions distinguish them. Also, we give some non-isomorphic graphs which have the same beans function.

The Navy’s promotion-retention process involves two successive decisions: The Navy decides whether an individual is selected for promotion, and then, conditional on the Navy’s decision, the sailor decides whether to reenlist or leave the Navy. Rates of promotion and retention depend on individuals’ demographic and other characteristics, wars and economic conditions and factors that the Navy ...

Although U.S. Navy diving is remarkably safe, because of the high-risk environment in which military divers work, accidents and mishaps do occur. Failures in leadership and situation awareness (particularly in risk and time assessment) were found to be the two most common causes of fatal and nonfatal U.S. Navy diving accidents and near misses. Responses to an attitude survey showed that junior ...

OBJECTIVE To examine whether women's tobacco use prior to entering the US Navy is predictive of subsequent career performance. A priori predictions were that smoking at entry into the Navy would be related to early attrition, poorer job performance, more disciplinary problems and lower likelihood of re-enlistment. METHODS A prospective cohort analysis of 5487 women entering the US Navy betwee...

T H E UNITED STATES Navy was a proud participant in the vast preparation and the farflung operational activities which, in bold exhibitions of professional skill, culminated in our first manned space fl.ights. In terms of magnitude, this represented the largest concentrated effort the Navy has ever put forth in a peaceful enterprise. In terms of sacrifice, many important tasks were temporarily ...

Aikpokpodion PE, Dongo LN (2010) Effects of fermentation intensity on polyphenols and antioxidant capacity of cocoa beans. Int. J. Sustain. Crop Prod. 5(4), 66-70. Cocoa beans were fermented for 1 day, 2 days, 3 days up to 6 days. Result showed that, polyphenols content of the fermented beans dropped from 16.11% on day 0 to 6.01% on day 6. The antioxidant capacity also dropped from 96% (IP) on ...
