That can be the case with carbon monoxide poisoning. Carbon monoxide is an odorless, tasteless, colorless gas produced by the incomplete combustion of carbon-based fuels such as natural gas, fuel oil, charcoal, or wood. It can be emitted by any improperly installed or poorly maintained combustion source such as unvented kerosene or gas space heaters, furnaces, wood stoves, gas stoves, fireplaces, or water heaters. 

Carbon monoxide interferes with the proper delivery of oxygen in the blood to the rest of the body. When you inhale high concentrations of this potentially deadly gas, it can displace the oxygen in your bloodstream and cause one or more of the following syn toms  

If the concentration is high enough and the exposure is long enough, it can even lead to death. Approximately 1,000 people die each year as a result of carbon monoxide poisoning. 

There are a few simple precautions that can be taken to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning. 

Small wall- or ceiling-mounted carbon monoxide detectors can be useful and part of an overall home safety program. But keep in mind the following

Recently, our laboratory produced a foldable, bendable, and cutable postage-stamp-sized battery (Fig. 12.2). The device looks like a simple sheet of black paper, but it could spell a revolution in implantable battery technology (Pushparaj et al., 2007). The paper battery, a one-piece-integrated device is made of cellulose with CNT and lithium electrodes. The device is flexible, rechargeable, and has the ability to function over a wide range of temperatures giving it a wide variety of potential biomedical applications. As a biomaterial, this paper battery may be useful as a pacemaker because it could easily be inserted under a patient s skin. 

In contrast, an approval letter meant that the submitted information justified approval. The only action usually requested for this t)q)e of letter was the submission of final printed labelling and advertising. In some cases, an approval letter could spell out other conditions for approval, such as post-approval studies, or restrictions on distribution or promotion. These conditions were generally discussed with the sponsor and agreed to prior to receipt of the letter. 

With the above procedure in place, the assessment of the safety of biogenerated aromas should be timely, rational, and cost effective. Sometimes, this stage could spell the difference between success or failure. 

Diclofenac is now registered for veterinary use and is readily available in some parts of Afiica. Vigilance will be required on the part of conservationists and researchers to ensure that diclofenac and other NSAIDs used in Afiica are not further contributing to the declines. Exposure to even a fraction of the treated carcasses that were available in India, for example at vulture restaurants or feeding stations, could spell disaster for Africa s already imperilled vultures. 

On the surface the increase in plant growth due to increased CO2 might seem like a good thing. Surprisingly, this situation could spell disaster for plant eaters, from caterpillars to antelopes, and for the animals that eat these herbivores. Faster plant... 

Little things could save lives. A reinforced concrete wall, a small hill, a white blouse could make a difference in the effect of the bomb, shielding or deflecting the radiation. Just a few feet could spell life or death. 

While someone is at the bottom, he is keen to make his way up when he gets to the top, he is afraid of slipping down. If someone hasn t got something, he envies whoever has it. If he has got it, he despises whoever hasn t. Now who could spell out in words quite how unpleasant, and how obviously unpleasant, this life is But even this unpleasantness has its lovers. In fact, we would be lucky to find a handful of people who love everlasting life - which cannot end—as much as they love this life, which comes to an end so soon. Even while it lasts, every day we are afraid of losing it from hour to hour. 

I pulled my hand away. What of my widowhood My years My boys I bit my tongue before I could say, My family s late-turned allegiance How could such a one as I be married to a king Must I tell you how, Ysa Very well, then, since you rate yourself so low. He stepped back half a pace, as if to see me better, but I could no more have run now I had the chance than if I had truly been laid under Merlins spell. You are virtuous as few other women, or you would not have denied me. You are beautiful beyond compare. You stand and walk and dance as one who already wears a crown. You are clever, and wise, and bear strong sons. How could I want for more How may I do without you ... 

Now there are a number of problems with relapse-prevention studies. One is the fact that many people who are taken off antidepressants experience withdrawal symptoms, which in severe cases can last for months. Some of these withdrawal symptoms - sadness, suicidal thoughts, crying spells, trouble concentrating, irritability, anxiety, agitation and insomnia, for example - are also symptoms of depression.12 These withdrawal symptoms could lead both patients and researchers to think that the patient has relapsed. 

Once this minimum pharmaceutical care is covered, pharmacists would be free to set up any other initiative. The erosion of earning power that this might spell for existing pharmacies could be offset by means of minimum market protection periods and by prohibiting chains of pharmacies without a single owner per pharmacy. 

You can draw a state chart showing in what order it makes sense for the actions to occur. This isn t as concrete as a program, because there may be factors abstracted away that permit different paths, and intermediate steps, to be chosen a program usually spells out every step in a sequence. The state chart is a visual representation of sensible orderings that could equally, if less visibly, be described by the pre- and postconditions of the actions. 

Situated between the solid and gaseous states as the only non-metallic element liquid at ambient temperature, bromine is sandwiched in the periodic table between the ubiquitous chlorine and the rather rare iodine. In terms of production volumes it is neither a bulk commodity chemical like chlorine, nor a speciality chemical like iodine. And commercially, bromine is beset by uncertainty. Until the 1970s, the major market forbromine was in dibromoethane - a co-additive for leaded petrol. The phase-out of lead in petrol could have spelled the collapse of the bromine industry, but alternative bromine markets developed and the industry both rationalised and flourished. However, although world bromine production continues to increase slowly, fresh environmental concerns have emerged and the industry is once more under threat. Details are given. 19 refs. 

Violetta cried out and faked a dizzy spell, so I could whisk her out into the fresh sea breeze. I had assumed she was pretending, but even out on the fondamenta she was unusually subdued. That was Niobe showing as Medea she could have tom the captain apart with a smile on her face. 

The Maestro did. I thought so. Those caskets may seem secure to the uninformed, but in reality they are not. Any reasonably skilled practitioner of the dark arts could override the minor spell with a stronger. They cannot long withstand even a gifted busybody like your Jacopo Fauro. He must have broken your mother s code, perhaps years ago. At some time he overheard your words. At another, perhaps, he witnessed your actions. Last December he opened your casket in your absence and read through your diary. He learned Foscari s secret—and sold it to your mother ... 

Although STMs do a splendid job of providing atomic-scale images, nanotechnology specialists are also interested in the machine s ability to move a single atom, as mentioned in the sidebar on pages 50-52. In 1989, the IBM scientist Don Eigler discovered that he could move around atoms with the STM. He spelled the company letters, IBM, with xenon atoms on a nickel surface. Since then, scientists have yielded to a creative impulse and made a variety of artistic pictures with small numbers of atoms. (Such art not only requires an STM to make, it also requires one in order for people to see and appreciate.)... 

How can wc spell out this nonmoral component of the ability that is crucial to freedom of the will It is clear that it is a capacity that a being who is not concerned with morality at all could have. Morality is addressed to people who are assumed to have the capacity, and it tells them how the capacity should be exercised. The capacity is assumed to make a difference to how one acts. One clear necessary condition has been stated in the literature To have this capacity, one must have a certain coherence through time (Scanlon 1987). Conclusions reached at one time must be seen as relevant to later reflections, unless specifically overruled.
