However, research using an artificial gut has shown that in the specific case of carotenoids a greater proportion is absorbed from cooked vegetables than from raw vegetables.

# Chemical stability: CSF flows throughout the inner ventricular system in the brain and is absorbed back into the bloodstream, rinsing the metabolic waste from the central nervous system through the blood – brain barrier.

For example, high glycine concentration disrupts temperature and blood pressure control, and high CSF pH causes dizziness and syncope .. To use Davson's term, the CSF has a " sink action " by which the various substances formed in the nervous tissue during its metabolic activity diffuse rapidly into the CSF and are thus removed into the bloodstream as CSF is absorbed.

In fact it has caused us to give serious thought to moving our residence south, because it is not easy for the most objective Southerner to sit calmly by when his host is telling a roomful of people that the only way to deal with Southerners who oppose integration is to send in troops and shoot the bastards down.

But apart from racial problems, the old unreconstructed South -- to use the moderate words favored by Mr. Thomas Griffith -- finds itself unsympathetic to most of what is different about the civilization of the North.

The two main charges levelled against the Bourbons by liberals is that they are racists and social reactionaries.

He was, and is, with the RAND Corporation, a nonprofit pool of thinkers financed by the U.S. Air Force.

They are huge areas which have been swept by winds for so many centuries that there is no soil left, but only deep bare ridges fifty or sixty yards apart with ravines between them thirty or forty feet deep and the only thing that moves is a scuttling layer of sand.

It is softened by the saltbush and the bluebush, has a peaceful quality, the hills roll softly.

On Fridays, the day when many Persians relax with poetry, talk, and a samovar, people do not, it is true, stream into Chehel Sotun -- a pavilion and garden built by Shah Abbas 2, in the seventeenth century -- but they do retire into hundreds of pavilions throughout the city and up the river valley, which are smaller, more humble copies of the former.

Poetry in Persian life is far more than a common ground on which -- in a society deeply fissured by antagonisms -- all may stand.

Nostalgic Yankee readers of Erskine Caldwell are today informed by proud Georgians that Tobacco Road is buried beneath a four-lane super highway, over which travel each day suburbanite businessmen more concerned with the Dow-Jones average than with the cotton crop.

All but the most rabid of Confederate flag wavers admit that the Old Southern tradition is defunct in actuality and sigh that its passing was accompanied by the disappearance of many genteel and aristocratic traditions of the reputedly languid ante-bellum way of life.

Westbrook further bemoans the Southern writers' creation of an unreal image of their homeland, which is too readily assimilated by both foreign readers and visiting Yankees: `` Our northerner is suspicious of all this crass evidence ( of urbanization ) presented to his senses.

The unit of form is determined subjectively: `` the Heart, by the way of the Breath, to the Line ''.

One effective strategy is to soak beans in alkaline ( baking soda ) water overnight before rinsing thoroughly.

When the partial pressure of is reduced, for example when a can of soda is opened, the equilibrium for each of the forms of carbonate ( carbonate, bicarbonate, carbon dioxide, and carbonic acid ) shifts until the concentration of in the solution is equal to the solubility of CO < sub > 2 </ sub > at that temperature and pressure.

At one teaspoon of sugar per ounce, cranberry juice cocktail is more highly sweetened than even soda drinks that have been linked to obesity.

The country has deposits of coal, opal, gemstones, kaolin, iron ore, soda ash, and tantalum, but only gold is mined in significant quantities.

A soda cracker is often used.

The most familiar type of glass, used for centuries in windows and drinking vessels, is soda-lime glass, composed of about 75 % silica ( SiO < sub > 2 </ sub >) plus sodium oxide Na < sub > 2 </ sub > O from soda ash, lime CaO, and several minor additives.

One is sodium carbonate ( Na < sub > 2 </ sub > CO < sub > 3 </ sub >, " soda "), which lowers the glass transition temperature.

However, the soda makes the glass water soluble, which is usually undesirable, so lime ( calcium oxide, generally obtained from limestone ), some magnesium oxide ( MgO ) and aluminium oxide ( Al < sub > 2 </ sub > O < sub > 3 </ sub >) are added to provide for a better chemical durability.

The viscosity decrease of lead glass melt is very significant ( roughly 100 times in comparison with soda glasses ); this allows easier removal of bubbles and working at lower temperatures, hence its frequent use as an additive in vitreous enamels and glass solders.

This amount of carbohydrate is contained in about 3-4 ounces ( 100-120 ml ) of orange, apple, or grape juice although fruit juices contain a higher proportion of fructose which is more slowly metabolized than pure dextrose, alternatively, about 4-5 ounces ( 120-150 ml ) of regular ( non-diet ) soda may also work, as will about one slice of bread, about 4 crackers, or about 1 serving of most starchy foods.

The name sodium is thought to originate from the Arabic suda, meaning headache, as the headache-alleviating properties of sodium carbonate or soda were well known in early times.

The oxygen consumed by the diver is replaced, nearly always by adding gas from a cylinder, and carbon dioxide exhaled by the diver is chemically removed by passing the gas through a " scrubber " — a canister full of soda lime or similar reagent.

The life of the soda lime scrubber is likely to be less than this and so will be the limiting factor of the dive.
