All plants produce chemical compounds as part of their normal metabolic activities. These can be split into primary metabolites, such as sugars and fats, found in all plants, and secondary metabolites found in a smaller range of plants, some only in a particular genus or species. The autologous functions of secondary metabolites are varied. For example, as toxins to deter predation, or to attract insects for pollination. It is these secondary metabolites which can have therapeutic actions in humans and which can be refined to produce ...

Acupuncture treats the human body as a whole that involves several "systems of function" that are in many cases associated with (but not identified on a one-to-one basis with) physical organs. Some systems of function, such as the "triple heater" (San Jiao, also called the "triple burner") have no corresponding physical organ. Disease is understood as a loss of homeostasis among the several systems of function, and treatment of disease is attempted by modifying the activity of one or more systems of function through the activity of needles, ...

Despite its racist portrayals, blackface minstrelsy was the conduit through which African-American and African-American-influenced music, comedy, and dance first reached the American mainstream. It played a seminal role in the introduction of African-American culture to world audiences. Wrote jazz historian Gary Giddings in Bing Crosby: A Pocketful of Dreams, The Early Years 1903-1940: Though antebellum (minstrel) troupes were white, the form developed in a form of racial collaboration, illustrating the axiom that defines—and ...

The astute reader will notice that some of these multiplexes carry a much larger number of services than others. Firstly, a number of services share bandwidth — so some channels turn off when others are on (for example one will never see CBeebies and BBC Four on air at the same time, as they use the same space in Multiplex B, with CBeebies broadcasting from 6am until 7pm and BBC Four from 7pm onwards; the situation is the same for CBBC and BBC Three). In addition, some multiplexes have fewer channels so as to allocate more data to fewer se ...

The darky icon itself—googly-eyed, with inky skin; exaggerated white, pink or red lips; and bright, white teeth—became a common motif first in the U.S., then worldwide, in entertainment, children's literature, mechanical banks and other toys and games of all sorts, cartoons and comic strips, advertisements, jewelry, textiles, postcards, sheet music, food branding and packaging, and other consumer goods. In 1895, the Golliwogg surfaced in Great Britain, the product of American-born children's book illustrator Florence Kate Upton, w ...

Over time, blackface and darky iconography became artistic and stylistic devices associated with art deco and the Jazz Age. By the 1950s and '60s, particularly in Europe, where it was more widely tolerated, blackface became a kind of outré, camp convention in some artistic circles. The Black and White Minstrel Show was a popular British musical variety show that featured blackface performers, and remained on British television until 1978. Actors and dancers in blackface appeared in music videos such as Taco Ockerse's "Puttin' on the Ritz" and Grace Jones's "Slave to the ...

ITV is preparing to launch a new children's channel on 11 March 2006. The channel has yet to be named publicly, but reports have mentioned the channel, in passing, as "CiTV" (following ITV's existing programming strand). It will use the slot on Multiplex 2 that was used by the ITV News Channel, until its closure on 23 December 2005. [1] It has been reported that Channel 4 may remove the subscription requirement of their movie channel FilmFour, making it a possible candidate for launch on Freeview. The broadc ...

New compression technology opened up two free slots on the National Grid Wireless multiplex, with the possibility of more to follow on this and other multiplexes. The additional capacity has been achieved by technology developments that have allowed the company to broadcast the additional channels using limited bandwidth. The two slots were made available for bidding earlier this year, and due to the limited capacity on the DTT service in the UK, broadcasters bid in millions in order to gain bandwidth. ITV won the bidding for the first slot ...

Longer term, the British Government has indicated it would like to turn the analogue services off entirely, starting in some regions from 2008, with the last analogue transmissions ceasing in 2012. There remain numerous obstacles to this however, including the large number of people who have no desire to receive more than the four or five channels they presently have, and who may find the new technology confusing. Also they will be reluctant to buy a digital box in order to view the channels they have had for free for so lon ...
