![]() In the 1950s, too, increasing numbers of record buyers in the US and Europe were listening to music from distant cultures, a process encouraged by recovery from post-World War II economic austerity, affordable international air travel (for the middle classes anyway) and the increasing prevalence of LPs. Teenagers were invented, and so were free jazz and rock ‘n’ roll. Innovation and experiment were to the fore in pop, jazz, R&B, electronic, conservatoire and even, though it sounds counterintuitive, in traditional folk music. The recorded music of the 1950s, however, reveals a different picture. The 1950s are generally perceived as a monochrome and conservative decade, in contrast to the technicolour and revolutionary 1960s. We begin with the 1950s when the LP was in its infancy and the modern world as we know it was starting to take shape. ![]() Unlike traditional “collectables” lists defined by monetary value, these are records picked for their importance as artefacts, whether rare, revolutionary or representative of a moment in time. A decade at a time, writer and music historian Chris May will be working with the VF editorial team to uncover what we’re calling the “most collectable” records of each era. ![]() Over the next few months we’re going to be looking at the last sixty years of recorded music from a slightly different perspective. ![]()

The definition may also be applied to a pattern with RBBB criteria in the precordial leads and LBBB criteria in the limb leads, and vice versa ( Fig. 3) Interventricular conduction delay (IVCD) which characterized by wide QRS morphology that does not resemble either typical LBBB or RBBB. ![]() 2) Complete (typical) right bundle branch block (RBBB) is described as QRS duration ≥ 120 ms in adults, rsr′, rsR′, or rSR′ in leads V1 or V2, R or r deflection is usually wider than the initial R wave patients, S wave of greater duration than R wave or greater than 40 ms in leads I and V6 in adults, and normal R peak time in leads V5 and V6 but > 50 ms in lead V ( Fig. Non-LBBB wide QRS complex patterns include the following four groups are represented in Figure 1 as follow: 1) Atypical LBBB represent “QRS duration greater than or equal to 120 ms in adults, broad notched or slurred R wave in leads I, aVL, V5, and V6, and an occasional RS pattern in V5 and V6 attributed to displaced transition of QRS complex, absent q waves in leads I, V5, and V6, and R peak time greater than 60 ms in leads V5 and V6” with atypical feature such as Q wave in I and aVL, larger R wave in V1 and V2, or V6 QRS complex morphology which is different from those in I and aVL ( Fig. ![]() The Non-LBBB Wide QRS Complex Electrocardiogram (ECG) Criteria Furthermore, we conferred the current guidelines, including the comprehensive update of the Canadian Cardiovascular Society (CCS) guidelines for the management of heart failure (HF) 2017, the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Heart Failure Association guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic HF 2016, the National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidelines for ICD (implantable cardioverter defibrillator) and CRT for arrhythmia and heart failure 2014, the American College of Cardiology Foundation/American Heart Association guideline for the management of heart failure 2013, the ESC European Heart Rhythm Association guidelines on cardiac pacing and cardiac resynchronisation therapy 2013, and the update to National Heart Foundation of Australia and Cardiac Society of Australia and New Zealand guidelines for the prevention, detection and management of chronic HF in Australia 2011. In this article, we reviewed the major trials that enriched the most recent international guidelines for CRT implantation focusing on the available data about the outcome of using CRT in non-LBBB cohort. It remains uncertain whether patients with non-LBBB QRS complex morphology clearly benefit from CRT or only modestly respond. An important and consistent finding in published systematic reviews and in subgroup analyses is that the benefits of CRTs are maximum for patients with a broader QRS durations, typically described as QRS duration > 150 ms, and for patients with a typical left bundle branch block (LBBB) QRS morphology. However, these alerts often have a high false-positive rate, due to the artifacts mentioned above.Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) benefits have been firmly established in patients with heart failure and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (HFrEF), who remain in New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classes II and III despite optimal medical therapy, and have a wide QRS complex. For example, VTach, VFib, Asystole, and AFib are commonly detected by telemetry equipment and reported to personnel in the form of audible and visual alerts. Real telemetry monitoring systems do include more advanced features not seen here, such as dynamic warning of dangerous rhythms. This also wreaks havoc on the automated rhythm warnings generated by telemetry systems! Many factors such as electrode placement, body weight, movement, muscle tremors, shivering, or even pacemakers can cause the EKG signal to become noisy or difficult to read. I have attempted to pick cleaner samples for this site in general, but real patients cause a lot of what we call "artifacts" on EKG monitors. Additionally, the "baseline" of the EKG (which should be at 0 voltage or the exact center of the chart) can also change or vary depending on conditions. You can see just how much amplitude changes from patient to patient simply by looking at samples here. This sometimes requires "zooming in" in order to better see important details. ![]() Depending on the patient, electrode placement, and other factors, the amplitude (or height) of the waves can change dramatically. Real telemetry monitors also allow you to adjust the speed and amplitude of the EKG waves. This unique format allows for easy analysis of cardiac rhythms. Telemetry monitors have a unique plotting style, "drawing" the EKG wave across the screen, then overwriting the wave on the next pass. The experience between watching EKGmon and a hospital telemetry monitor is very similar. ![]() ![]() ![]() We would highly recommend getting a cage from me for low cost.

![]() ![]() You’ll have to balance your soldier’s positioning (cover, flank, line of sight) with each turn, while not only fighting against the visible enemies, but the ones that you can’t see yet hidden in the fog of war. Each soldier can move, fire, cover, or use some sort of special ability in each turn. The game carefully ramps up the difficulty on these missions over time, introducing new and more difficult alien types along the way. Its here you’ll take out a squad of four to six soldiers into a turn based battle against the alien menace. The randomly generated missions are the second half of the tactical equation. You’ll also have to carefully choose between available scenarios and balance the risk vs reward factor of choosing one over the other. ![]() Here you’ll build up your underground facilities, research new technology, recruit and upgrade soldiers, and build weapons and armor to outfit your squads for missions. XCOM is broken down into two segments - there’s a resource management section which puts players in control of a base commander. While the new game embraces consoles equally as its PC ancestry, it does so without sacrificing any gameplay and depth. XCOM: Enemy Unknown is a reimagining of the classic X-COM franchise, one that lives fondly in many PC gamer’s hearts. The game is as much about tactics on the battlefield as it is off, and the fear it conveys won’t be found in any ghost stories. Who do you bring? What mission do you choose? What resources do you need? XCOM: Enemy Unknown is the latest turn based strategy game from Firaxis, makers of Civilization V, and it contains just some of the above decisions for players. Whatever mission you decide, you know some of your squad isn’t coming back. Japan wants more sectoid corpses for research. There’s a downed alien craft in North America. ![]() But hey, that's just me.Russia is on the brink of panic. I beat XCOM 2, and I'm maybe eight hours into War of the Chosen, but so far I feel like the expansion adds a lot without streamlining enough (beyond target view.) That's not a bad thing necessarily-I'm sure lots of gamers love it just the way it is, and more power to you.įor me, something slightly less stressful and hectic would be more fun. It feels like the game just bombards you with choices and keeps your resources so thin that any little mistake sends the whole thing spinning out of control. Like I said, maybe I've just become a filthy casual, or maybe I just don't have the time these days to really devote myself to something this hardcore, but I kind of love how in Mario + Rabbids it's almost entirely about the battle tactics and you're not worrying about base management or keeping territories happy and there's no grim bald guy chastising you between missions.Īctually, I think I'd be happiest with a middle ground of some sort, wedged between the simplicity of Mario + Rabbids and XCOM 2: War of the Chosen. I don't necessarily want easier battles, but I would like less to manage in-between them. I've been playing this at the same time as Mario + Rabbids, and what I love about that game in contrast to this one is how low-stress it is. I guess I just never liked how hectic XCOM 2 was compared to its predecessor, and I feel maybe even a little more strongly about this with the expansion. It doesn't help that the missions have sudden, sharp difficulty spikes either, and that when you're in Iron Man mode (which allows just one auto-save point) you can easily find yourself in an almost unwinnable situation. But while I was absolutely addicted to the first game and its expansion, I'm much less fond of the sequel for exactly this reason. Maybe I just don't have the time and patience to juggle all of this at once. Suddenly you have three different missions that are all top priority that you can't ignore, plus Dark Events going off and the main story mission drawing closer, half your best troops are wounded and now the other half are 's just too much. Sometimes you're trying to just gather some Intel or Supplies and five other notifications bombard you on top of research being completed and a facility being built. Little things really impact my enjoyment in big ways, like the need to go pick up Supply Drops. I know that hardcore players may give me grief over this, but there are times in XCOM 2 (vanilla and WotC) that I stop having fun and just feel overwhelmed. That's one area where I wish War of the Chosen had done more to change. ![]() ![]() ![]() Germany's Wilhelma zoo noted a strange occurrence not too long ago: the highest-ranked male just wouldn't grow cheek pads, and no one knew why. Looks like the beginning of a friendship Image: picture-alliance/dpa/C. The cheek pads are a sign that the male ranks top in the group's hierarchy. In fact, they prefer to mate with well-padded males. Rearing children isn't an easy task - for humans and great apes alike.ĭominant male orangutans develop large flaps on their jowls that the females are mightily attracted to. Great apes learn from their peers how to be good mothers. The zoo wants the young gorillas to experience other females having babies and to see how they care for their offspring before they have their own. When a zoo wants a female gorilla to get pregnant, it passes the female on to another zoo as soon as the animals reach puberty - in keeping with the incest taboo.įemale gorilla newcomers to the Wilhelma are put on the pill. In the wild, when they've reached the right age, they leave their group, and choose a new group with a silverback who appeals to them. Mother and child Image: picture-alliance/dpa/H.Battefeldįemale gorillas usually don't mate with their closest relatives, their father and brothers. That said, Wilhelma chose to build a moat - fenced by an electric wire and complete with a non-swimmer's area - in the new great ape house. As a result, zoos have to think twice about using water-filled moats around their compounds because they could easily drown. Some female orangutans have sad lives indeed. The fact that great apes resemble humans has its disadvantages for the animals, however: sometimes, they are treated as prostitutes and are being sexually abused, tied down in questionable brothels. ![]() "The bonobos go nuts - they shake their fists and shriek." What they can't stand is when the zoo vet shows up in the TV program. The keeper says they (mostly) love this: "When we showed them a documentary from our zoo, they really liked that!" They're really interested in other animals, she adds. The apes are allowed an hour of movies a day on a large screen on a wall in their compound. Is this chimpanzee laughing? Image: picture-alliance/dpa/P.KnechtĪt the Wilhelma zoo, US primate researcher Amy Parish studies Bonobos' reactions to TV films. Words other great apes came up with: "ball" and "beans" to denote "peas," "bottle" and "match" to say "lighter," and "bark" in combination with "sky" and "dog" to refer to a helicopter.Ī zookeeper told us that gorillas in particular swear a lot if you teach them the signs for swear words. A female gorilla once combined the signs for white and tiger to describe a zebra: a white animal with stripes. They can't form complex sentences, but they do create new words. Some apes know how to use more than a thousand signs. Perhaps that's why they are able to grasp human sign language. Scans of great ape brains show a kind of preliminary speech center. DW author Brigitte Osterath on the look-out for mountain gorillas in Uganda Image: Rainer Dückerhoff In addition, the great apes' larynx muscles and vocal chords can't move as freely and are therefore hard to coordinate. The same is actually true for human babies before they learn to speak. In reality, they can't speak at all because they have a higher larynx, or voice box, which means there isn't enough space between the soft palate and the larynx - the resonating cavity is simply too small. ![]() In the movie "Planet of the Apes", gorillas, chimps and orangutans speak like humans. ![]() Great apes can also easily catch a cold or the flu from humans. According to one of their keepers, "they cough and sniffle all the time." As a result, the Bonobos at the Wilhelma zoo aren't allowed outdoors once the temperatures drop. These slender, placid great apes are prone to catching common colds. Fishing for snacks Image: picture-alliance/dpa/Zoo Berlin Their blood differs in too many details that still need to be investigated. In reality, blood donations are unlikely, though, as humans and apes are different species. The ABO varieties and the Rhesus factor are the most important characteristics that decide over whether a blood transfusion will succeed or fail. So in theory, chimpanzees and gorillas could donate blood to humans and vice versa - provided they have the same blood type. The Rhesus factor isn't limited to humans, either. Even some of the lesser apes like Gibbons have these blood types. These types developed more than 20 million years ago they're something humans and all Old World monkeys share. Great apes and humans have the same blood types: A, B, AB and O. But then I took a tour around the new great ape house at Stuttgart's Wilhelma zoo and botanical garden - and found out that these fascinating animals still have many a story to tell. Think you know everything there is to know about great apes? That's what I thought, too. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Individual modules have real volume and storage capacity.

The game, set in 1274, has a nice haiku-writing mechanic.The Japanese dub calls the blades tachi, a much appropriate term for the period, although the swords depicted in the game are still distinctly katanas. The term katana is certainly ancient, but its usage for a specifical kind of word, as said above, actually came after Muromachi period.The standard sword-wearing practice of Jin's day would have been to wear a single tachi (with a much longer blade-to-grip ratio, much different fittings, and different style of curvature) suspended from the obi, edge down. In fact, it was the Mongol invasion itself that revealed the flaws in Japanese swords that would eventually lead to the katana's development, and those would not see regular use until the Muromachi Period in the 14th century, or become widespread until the Sengoku Period. This practice only came into vogue during the Tokugawa Shogunate, a little under four centuries later. ![]()
