Membrain sweep7/23/2023 ![]() (1) a multicentre, pilot randomised trial (2) a health economic analysis (3) a qualitative study and (4) a study within the host trial (a SWAT). The proposed feasibility study consists of four work packages, i.e. Women allocated randomly to a sweep will then be randomised further (factorial component) to early (from 39 weeks) versus late (from 40 weeks) sweep commencement and a single versus weekly sweep. Pregnant women with a live, singleton foetus ≥ 38 weeks gestation cephalic presentation longitudinal lie intact membranes English speaking and ≥ 18 years of age will be randomised in a 2:1 ratio to membrane sweep versus no membrane sweep. Multicentre, pragmatic, parallel-group, pilot randomised controlled trial with an embedded factorial design. We will also assess the acceptability and feasibility of the proposed trial interventions to clinicians and women (through focus group interviews). The primary aim of the MILO Study is to inform the optimal design of a future definitive randomised trial to evaluate the effectiveness (including optimal timing and frequency) of membrane sweeping to prevent post-term pregnancy. However, despite its widespread use, there is an absence of evidence on (a) its effectiveness and (b) its optimal timing and frequency. Amniotic membrane sweeping has been recommended as a simple procedure to promote the spontaneous onset of labour. Post-term pregnancy is associated with an increased risk of maternal complications, respiratory distress and trauma to the neonate.

Step 5: Start planting! With 3 inch seed/plant spacing needs, you can grow 16 plants in a 1 square foot area.Answer: 4 plants across X 4 plants across = 16 plants!.Step 4: Multiply your two answers together.Step 3: Repeat step two but for the length of your planting section.Answer: 12 inches across / 3 inch seed spacing = 4 plants across.Step 2: Divide the width of your planting section (about 12 inches) by the 3 inch seed spacing.(We’ll use 3 inch seed spacing for this example) Step 1: Locate the seed spacing number from the back of your seed packet.Don’t panic! We promise it’s really, really easy. We have our simple plant spacing chart below if you want to jump ahead and begin planting now, but if you want to know how we got the plant spacing measurements, stick right here!We’re going to do a little math. Next, let’s figure out how many plants to plant You can find the Garden Grid™ here or by clicking on the perfectly placed image below. It’s a pre-assembled plant spacing grid AND a garden watering system that surround every square with adjustable streams over water. This used to be done by measuring, cutting materials, and attaching them to your garden bed… we found this to be a hassle so we simplifed this for your and created The Garden Grid™ watering system. To make plant spacing easier, many gardeners will make a plant spacing grid. ![]() We say “ about 1 square foot” because the thickness of a garden bed board will make the growing area of your garden just under an increment of 1 foot but not to worry, your plants will never know the difference. Typically about 1 square foot sections are preferred. Let’s get started: First you need to make planting sections You will use the seed spacing/plant spacing number to divide up planting sections to know how many seeds to sow. What you will need is the seed spacing/plant spacing number. Now, we normally do not condone being wasteful, but we want you to take that row spacing number, and throw it away! You won’t need it. ![]() If you look on the back of a seed packet you’ll see two types of measurement: Planting by area means taking a square section of garden, and dividing the length and width of that section by the plant spacing needs. It’s a win, win … win! So what do we mean by Since you don’t need to walk into your garden, your soil never gets compressed, your plants don’t get squished, and your favorite pair of sneakers stay nice and clean. So when you see a gardener with a raised bed that’s 4ft wide, you’ll know that savvy grower can always reach the middle of their growing area! The reason for this dimension is that an average person’s arm can reach at least 2ft. That’s why great raised gardens always have one dimension of 4ft or less. When you grow a garden in a raised garden bed, the purpose of the bed is to condense your growing area to a point that you can reach all plants, without having to step into the growing area. Row spacing is meant to giving you a walking path between plants, you shouldn’t be walking in a Raised Garden. ![]() Here’s what you should be doing: Plant by area, not by rows. Need a planting spacing grid & garden watering system? Check out our Garden Grid™ watering system here. We’ll explain how plant spacing works best when growing in a raised garden bed, how you can effortlessly partition your garden into equal growing sections, and even give you our plant spacing chart you can share with friends, put it on your own website, or just use it for yourself so you can grow a garden so great, the Jones’s will have to keep up with you!Īlready know how plant spacing works & just want to reference our plant spacing chart? ![]() To start, we’ll give you a quick tutorial on plant spacing needs for different vegetables. If you use row planting in your raised garden bed, you’re missing out! You could be growing a lot more, without any extra effort, using square foot gardening.ĭo not worry though, there’s a better way and we’re here to show you the plant spacing ‘light’.

Isadora swann 20187/23/2023 ![]() You have to listen very carefully to what is being said. From here it opens the possibility to deal with loss and relationships in a lighthearted but sensitive way that engages the viewer in a clever little story. Being flooded with material wishes, he is touched by the letter expressing matters of the heart, so responds equally in a way to give hope. responding to children's wishes in an effort to rekindle his enthusiasm for writing after a bitter divorce. It just so happens that a young, successful writer is assisting Santa Inc. Having handed the letter to the postman it finds its way to Santa Inc., run by two charming but eccentric older ladies. The story revolves around a girl of 8 who has lost her father, so writes to Santa about her concerns and the wish for her mother to smile again. Since this is the first film I watched in this season, I did find it good and looking forward for other titles. Being a television film, it's not so bad. The casting was good, nice production as well. But still it is, particularly for the family audience this would be a much effective film, and to watch during the holiday season. I lost interest only in the final act, they should have avoided the drag, otherwise this is a decent film. This story was not bad, particularly in the first half. But the conclusions are dead easy to predict, because they always have a happy ending. Almost all the Christmas films are kind of similar, especially in romance theme. ![]() The remaining film is to disclose how the story ends. Between his two identities, revealing what he actually is what becomes challenging. But when he decides to meet them in person, the reality is different than what he thought of them. It will be received by a struggling writer, who replies in the name of Santa and so on, they become pen pals. This is another romance themed Christmas film that is set in a little town where a young girl writes a letter to Santa wishing her mother to find love and happiness again. Now mine begins with this, especially Hallmark's films are special in this trademark. So basically you can't escape from watching at least couple of them in a year. It's already a Christmas season, the televisions are packed with those themed films. In fact, I even looked up the writers and am seeking out more of their movies. This movie goes to the top of the heap for me. There are a few Hallmarks that stand out due to really good scripts - I love Seven Year Hitch (2012) and Naughty Or Nice (2012). ![]() The ending with the magical Christmas barn and sleigh was tongue-in-cheek about all the Hallmark Christmas smaltz, yet in a fond way. Brilliant! Then there's the heroine's Hemingway-themed cafe, called The Bun Also Rises, with menu items like To Ham and Ham Not and The Old Man and the Tea. Randy is such a crazy guy, he practically deserves a series of his own. The heroine's sister's husband and his buddy, Randy, are obsessed with a potato shooting contest. I *loved* the various side characters like the hero's best friend, who is always making sarcastic quips about marriage and kids (but really loves his own family). But what makes it so much better than average is the humor in the script. The lead actors are appealing, the romantic chemistry is good, and the premise of the little girl writing to Santa, who writes back and then falls for the mom-that's all good. I watch a lot of Hallmark movies and enjoy them, but it's always a great pleasure when one rises above the fold and turns out to be much better than expected.

Camel subliminal advertising7/22/2023 ![]() Attractive communicators create a positive association with the product they are trying to sell and put us in a good mood, which makes us more likely to accept their messages. ![]() For instance, attractive communicators are frequently more effective persuaders than are unattractive communicators. In general, we can say that communicators are more effective when they help their recipients feel good about themselves-that is, by appealing to self-concern. Research has demonstrated that the same message will be more effective if is delivered by a more persuasive communicator. Persuaders also must understand how the communication they are presenting relates to the message recipient-his or her motivations, desires, and goals. ![]() ![]() Furthermore, to accomplish these goals, persuaders must consider the cognitive, affective, and behavioral aspects of their methods. In order to be effective persuaders, we must first get people’s attention, then send an effective message to them, and then ensure that they process the message in the way we would like them to. Following the approach used by some of the earliest social psychologists and that still forms the basis of thinking about the power of communication, we will consider which communicators can deliver the most effective messages to which types of message recipients (Hovland, Lumsdaine, & Sheffield (1949). If you think that advertisers and marketers have too much influence, then this section will help you understand how to resist such attempts at persuasion. Persuasion is also used to encourage people to donate to charitable causes, to volunteer to give blood, and to engage in healthy behaviors. For instance, a review of the research literature indicates that mass-media anti-smoking campaigns are associated with reduced smoking rates among both adults and youth (Friend & Levy, 2001). But persuasion can also have more positive outcomes. Reynolds Company started airing its Joe Camel ads for cigarettes on TV in the 1980s, Camel’s share of cigarette sales to children increased dramatically. There is substantial evidence that advertising is effective in changing attitudes. The ads appear on billboards, website popup ads, buses, TV infomercials, and…well, you name it! It’s been estimated that over $500 billion is spent annually on advertising worldwide (Johnson, 2013). The goal of these ads is to sell us cars, computers, video games, clothes, and even political candidates.
