One night he acquired a bottle of Canadian whiskey, and somehow we persuaded three girls from the tennis camp to join us in his dorm room. Not bothering with glassware, we passed the bottle around until it was empty. I remember eating some watermelon Daly had bought. The evening ended when I regurgitated the whiskey and melon onto one of the girls. Daly and another player on the Razorback golf ...

There is much evidence that regurgitated gastric juice may injure the oesophagus, destroying the surface layers and causing inflammation in surviving tissues. The lesion referred to variously as peptic, digestion, or reflux oesophagitis is common and may be serious, even fatal, in its immediate or late effects or both. The pathology of the disease will be discussed in a later communication. The...

Rumination, or the chewing and re-swallowing of regurgitated stomach contents, can be found in up to 10% of institutionalized individuals with severe or profound mental retardation. Serious physical consequences, including death, can result from the disorder. Unfortunately, rumination can be subtle and difficult to observe and often continues untreated. Additionally, the research literature has...

A series of small groups of invertebrate remains from excavations at Dundrennan Abbey, near Kirkudbright, SW Scotland, was identified. The material was generally of little interpretative significance and in some cases clearly of modern origin. One assemblage included a compressed mass of woodlouse and centipede remains and was probably a faecal or regurgitated pellet, the lack of fine matrix ar...

Using of nanofluids and ducts with corrugated walls are both supposed to enhance heat transfer, by increasing the heat transfer fluid conductivity and the heat transfer area respectively. Use of a diverging duct with a jet at inlet section may further increase heat transfer by creating recirculation zones inside the duct. In this work two-dimensional incompressible laminar flow of a nanofluid e...

numerical study has been carried out for slot air jet impingement cooling of horizontal concentric circular cylinders. the slot air jet is situated at the symmetry line of a horizontal cylinder along the gravity vector and impinges to the bottom of the outer cylinder which is designated as θ=0°. the outer cylinder is partially opened at the top with width of w=30mm and is kept at constant tempe...

introduction jet stream is strong narrow current concentrated by strong vertical and lateral wind shears (vasantha et al, 2002). according to world meteorological organization nomenclature, jet stream formed when the speed of wind greater than 60 knots or 30 m/s. the major characteristics of the troposphere and lower stratosphere in the vicinity of jet streams were pointed out by a group of met...
