What Is Ebola? The Ebola virus is part of a family of viruses that cause hemorrhagic fever. Hemorrhagic fever means that a person becomes very ill and bleeds inside and outside the body. Symptoms include fever, muscle weakness, sore throat, and headaches. Unfortunately, the virus has a long incubation period (between 8-21 days) so an individual can be infected before showing any signs or symptoms. As an infected person becomes sick, kidney and liver function can decrease and significant bleeding can begin inside the body....

They are ready to get started, but as an employer, are you ready to engage with these new virtual workers? With an estimated 42 percent of the U.S. labor force working remotely, now is the time for employers to re-define what it means to hire and retain young talent. This is a unique opportunity for employers to write the future and turn this moment into a teachable one by helping to prepare the next generation for the post-pandemic future of work....

Both of the characters are in very different situations with Anton Castillo being the authoritarian leader of a Caribbean island while Joseph Seed is the charismatic head of a religious cult in the United States. Despite the differences, there are still some similarities between the two, and more than just Far Cry 5’s bliss flower appearing in Far Cry 6. They both have their families involved with their grand schemes, believe they are acting on a greater purpose, and have grand plans that they see everyone else as getting in the way of....

The line between art and abuse, between what’s bracingly unflinching and what’s simply unbearable is always shifting. Every few years another movie comes along that pushes the limits of what audiences can endure. In 1975 it was Pasolini’s “Salo,” which transplanted the Marquis de Sade’s horrifically perverse fantasies to the Italian Fascist era. In 1986 it was the matter-of-fact carnage of “Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer.” In 1992 heated arguments arose over the severed ear in “Reservoir Dogs....

Among the most common fungal infections that mimic primary lung cancers are aspergillosis, blastomycosis, coccidioidomycosis, cryptococcosis, histoplasmosis, mucormycosis, and paracoccidioidomycosis. This article will explore how the symptoms of fungal lung infections and lung cancer can overlap, and how to tell the difference. Fungal Infections in Lungs There are multiple fungi that can cause an infection in the lungs. The following are the most common infections. Learn their symptoms, how they are diagnosed, and how they are treated....

For those unaware, The Last of Us 2 will follow Ellie’s quest for revenge against a faction which has somehow wronged her, presumably by harming her friend and love interest Dina. Some gameplay footage has been shown, and although it is not a lot, it does give some clues as to what differences in gameplay will be present when the game finally releases. Ultimately, gameplay of The Last of Us can be broken down into four major components: survival, stealth, traversal, and combat....

Though some anime’s target audiences aren’t as exclusive as others. Classic shounen anime had more fan service than shoujo anime did - and even ones that didn’t have a particular gender demographic, still relied on male-targeted fan service. It can’t go without saying though, that as the years progress and society evolves towards a more egalitarian state, depictions of fan service become broader in terms of audience.

The British socialite was convicted in December on five out of six counts of sex trafficking but the case was thrown into disarray after juror Scotty David gave media interviews. He told journalists, including at The Independent and the Daily Mail, how he had described his own experiences of sexual abuse during deliberations. The revelation was seized upon by Maxwell’s legal team, who called for a retrial because he did not disclose his history in a jury questionnaire....

As predictions were made about how Guardiola’s latest project would pan out, Gundogan was identified as the fulcrum of the side by fans and pundits alike. At Borussia Dortmund, Gundogan played in a deep role and made an average of 70 passes per game in the 2014-15 campaign, and 78.5 last season. With many anticipating an overhaul of City’s central midfield, it made complete sense that the only new arrival in that position would dictate the tempo for Guardiola’s team....

The Blues edged out local rivals, Arsenal, to claim their second Europa League titl. Eden Hazard put up a decisive performance in Baku. The Belgian scored twice and assisted another to grant his side a vital 4-1 victory. Following that performance, the fans hoped to see more of such displays from the playmaker. But, things didn’t go their way as that ended up being the last time they’d see him step onto the pitch with the blue jersey on....

At first glance the selection was a sign of Bush’s self-confidence. He is secure enough to surround himself with people who are brighter than he is–an essential trait in any effective leader. It also showed remarkable confidence, even cockiness, about his prospects in November that he picked someone who brings him no big state or constituency. But at another level, Bush’s pick was a tacit admission that he lacks seasoning and might not be ready to handle the responsibilities of the presidency alone....

Widespread reports at the time claimed Manchester City, not United, were the ones leading the chase for Ronaldo with Pep Guardiola keen to add a recognized No. 9 to his squad following the exit of Sergio Aguero. It’s believed Guardiola spoke to Ronaldo about the possibility of joining the Premier League champions only for Manchester United to swoop in, motivated by the prospect of a club legend signing for one of their closest rivals....

Sweat Chloride Test The sweat test, more appropriately referred to as the sweat chloride test, has been considered the test of choice since it was first introduced back in 1959. The test is highly accurate with a correct positive rate of 98 percent. How the Test Works This is caused when a defective form of a protein, known as cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CTFR), obstructs the normal flow of water and mineral ions in and out of cells....

Baz Luhrmann’s epic biopic about Elvis Presley prefers to leave audiences with one of the icon’s last great performances. At the end of the movie, the Moulin Rouge director cuts to real footage of Presley at one of his final concerts. In a triumphant moment, he performs his version of “Unchained Melody” (as heard in the trailer). The movie chooses not to go any further into The King’s life—perhaps unsurprising, as watching a legend of music dying on the toilet might be too much of a downer ending for a film that cost a reported $85 million....

The illustration shows how medical staff carry out the standard nasopharyngeal swab test for the disease, which is used to collect genetic material. “This test being demonstrated is a nasopharyngeal swab or NP swab collection. It uses a small flocked swab on a flexible plastic shaft to collect a sample from the posterior nasopharynx,” Wesley Long, a microbiologist from Houston Methodist Hospital, told Newsweek. “Nasopharynx” is a term that refers to the back part of your nose where it joins the throat....

Is there an app, preferably a portable app, that will scroll the window and save the result as a BMP or JPG image?

How do I fix this? Thanks!
