The document discusses geologic time and methods for dating rocks. It introduces the concept of the geologic time scale, which places geologic events in chronological order. There are two main methods for dating rocks: relative dating and absolute dating. Relative dating involves determining the sequence of past events without specific numerical measurements, using principles like superposition, cross-cutting relationships, and fossil succession. Absolute dating provides specific numerical ages for rocks and fossils using radiometric dating techniques to measure the decay of radioactive elements. The principles of radiometric dating are also outlined.1. Rock Elasticity

This document discusses linear and non-linear elasticity concepts relevant to rock mechanics. It defines key terms like stress, strain, elastic moduli, and principal stresses/strains. It describes how stress and strain relate for isotropic materials using Hooke's law and elastic constants. It also covers the stress tensor, Mohr's circle, strain energy, and the differences between linear, perfectly elastic, elastic with hysteresis, and permanently deforming non-linear elastic models.Bone tumour

Bone tumors can develop at any age and in various locations. Most osteosarcomas occur in adolescents around the knee, while chondrosarcomas tend to develop in mid-to-late adulthood in the trunk and proximal long bones. Bone tumors may be benign like osteomas, osteoid osteomas, or osteoblastomas, or malignant like osteosarcomas. Osteosarcomas are the most common primary bone cancer and often present as painful masses, usually metastasizing to the lungs. Ewing sarcoma and primitive neuroectodermal tumors are small round cell tumors that predominantly affect children and young adults.Ewing's sarcoma

1. Ewing's sarcoma is a rare cancer that was first described in 1921 by James Ewing, who believed it originated from blood vessels in bone tissue.
2. It most commonly affects children and young adults under 20, with males being affected more often than females. The most common symptoms are pain and swelling near the tumor.
3. While the exact cause is unknown, it is defined by a specific chromosomal translocation. Treatment involves chemotherapy, sometimes with radiation therapy or surgery. Prognosis depends on factors like metastasis and response to treatment.Examination of hip

- Simple bone cysts are benign bone lesions commonly found in the metaphysis of long bones in children and adolescents. They appear as radiolucent areas on x-ray and often cause pain, swelling or pathological fractures.
- Aneurysmal bone cysts are expansile, blood-filled bone lesions containing fibrous tissue and giant cells. They typically occur in the long bone metaphysis and have a characteristic "blown-out" appearance on x-ray.
- Fibrous dysplasia is a bone condition where normal bone is replaced by fibrous tissue, most commonly affecting the femur, tibia and skull. It appears as lytic lesions on x-ray that can range from lucentMetastatic Tumors of the Spinal Column: Diagnosis and Treatment

This document discusses common pediatric gait abnormalities including in-toeing, out-toeing, and limping. It reviews the physiologic and pathologic causes of these conditions and provides guidance on physical examination techniques and differential diagnosis. Common causes of in-toeing include femoral anteversion, medial tibial torsion, and metatarsus adductus. Out-toeing is often due to external tibial torsion. Genu valgum (bowlegs) is usually physiologic in young children and resolves on its own, while pathologic causes like rickets require medical treatment. Observation is the typical management for most rotational and angular deformities in children as they often correct spontaneously with growth.Recent advances in management of osteosarcoma

Recent advances in the management of osteosarcoma include improved imaging techniques like MRI and PET/CT that can better assess tumor extent and predict response to chemotherapy. Biopsies can now be performed using less invasive core needle techniques. Advances in local therapy include limb-sparing surgeries using smaller resection margins and joint-sparing techniques along with proton beam and heavy ion radiotherapy for inoperable tumors. Multi-agent chemotherapy continues to be the standard of care, with additions like ifosfamide and mifamurtide. Follow-up now relies more on chest X-rays compared to CT scans.

Arthroscopy of the Hip for Labral Pathology and FAI: Indications and Technique discusses the indications for hip arthroscopy to address femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and labral pathology. It notes that FAI is a risk factor for hip pain and pathology, with most labral tears associated with underlying structural abnormalities. The presentation outlines the different types of FAI (cam and pincer impingement), the anatomy of the acetabular labrum, and techniques for arthroscopic correction of cam and pincer FAI. It stresses that the diagnosis must be confirmed and the patient's symptoms warrant surgery, and cautions against intervention in cases of osteoarthritis or dysplasia.

This document provides information on foundations for roads and bridges. It discusses shallow and deep foundations for buildings. For roads, it describes classification, geometric design considerations, and factors to consider in site investigations. Major bridge types include beam, truss, arch, and suspension bridges. Bridge site investigations consider geological and geotechnical factors that can impact foundations and stability. Foundations are designed based on bearing capacity and load transfer to the ground. Shallow foundations are used when soil/rock is sufficiently strong near the surface, while deep foundations using piles or piers are used when the surface is inadequate.14. Osteomyelitis...pptx

Osteomyelitis is a bone infection that can be acute or chronic. Acute osteomyelitis typically occurs in children under 12 and presents with fever, bone pain, and swelling. It is usually caused by Staphylococcus aureus entering the bone via bloodstream. Diagnosis involves blood tests, imaging like x-rays and MRIs, and biopsies. Treatment is IV antibiotics for 3-6 weeks followed by oral antibiotics. Chronic osteomyelitis persists longer than 1 month and may require surgical intervention like debridement in addition to long-term antibiotic therapy. Complications can include bone deformities, fractures, and systemic effects.Family Tree - Egipsy

Henry Knox led a small group of men on a daring 300-mile journey from Fort Ticonderoga in upstate New York to Cambridge, Massachusetts in winter 1775-1776. They disassembled 60 tons of artillery from the recently abandoned fort and transported the cannons across lakes, rivers, ice and snow over the course of 56 days. When the cannons reached Cambridge in March 1776, they were positioned overlooking the city of Boston, forcing the British to evacuate the city. Knox's success transporting the cannons played a key role in the British withdrawal from Boston and the early Revolutionary War efforts.Scenes from printer's apprentice

This document summarizes a lecture on increasing conflicts over slavery in the mid-19th century United States. It discusses how music and religion influenced enslaved African Americans' lives. It describes major rebellions and court cases challenging slavery. The Underground Railroad helped around 100,000 slaves escape to freedom using secret routes and stations operated by free African Americans and white abolitionists. Enslaved people found empowerment and community through religious worship and music, using spirituals to cope with hardship and secretly signal the Underground Railroad. Religion and music were tools for physical and metaphorical escape from slave conditions.Lecture 7 - Slavery - 10.2016

The document provides a summary of Professor Grace Chee's lecture on the consolidation of slavery in the South between 1790-1850. It discusses how slavery expanded and became entrenched, driven by the growth of cotton and the invention of the cotton gin. The internal slave trade transported over 800,000 slaves from the Upper South to the Deep South. Slaves resisted through escape, rebellion, and embracing religion. The pro-slavery movement argued it was a positive good. Strict laws were passed to control free blacks and suppress abolitionists. Slavery shaped Southern society, economics, and gender roles.The Bull City: A Short History of Durham, North Carolina
