Knee-Holding

Waste containers and stools are frequent occupants of laboratory aisles, where they may cause congestion. One answer to this is to provide a sufficient number of knee-holes in the work benches to hold them. [Pg.49]

I step forward, alone, feeling my soul catch and hold to these same words, to the shape and spring of them, to the bowing of my knee, my lowered head, the pressing of my palms at my breast. [Pg.243]

But it was so hard. Ned I loved, but it was Antony who saw him every day. Dickon was my little boy, and since my baby George was taken by God, he was my only son still to hang on my skirts, and hold my hand, and show me a book or a catapult or a cut knee, as once Thomas and Richard did all those years ago among the apple trees and cornfields of Grafton. [Pg.322]

I can hold back my grief no longer. Under it I bow my head to my knees, and then it presses on me so greatly that I can no longer stay upright, and fall onto my side with my face to the wall, weeping for the end of my world, and for the world that will go on afterwards. [Pg.334]

I I 7. Researchers use the terms elasticity and joint lubrication to communicate the possibility that exercising can help prevent arthritis (or at least control its effects). The premise is that the more you use the various parts of your body, the more you can use them in the future (as long as it is not overdone). There are some exceptions for example, deep knee bends or holding your hands above your head too long can do more harm than good. The older you are, the higher priority you may give to this one. [Pg.129]

Shoulder stretch. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and knees slightly bent. Place your right arm on your left shoulder. Use your left hand to pull your right elbow toward your left shoulder and hold it in a stretched position for a slow count of 10. Change arms and repeat the exercise. [Pg.134]

Leg stretch. Sit on the floor with your legs straight out in front of you and knees slightly bent. Moving from the hips, slowly reach forward toward your toes. Hold for a slow count of 10, return to the starting position, and repeat. [Pg.135]

After walking, repeat the warm-up stretches and add two more. First, reach one arm over your head and to the side, keeping your hips steady and your shoulders straight to the side. Alternate arms and hold each position for a slow count of 10. Do three or four repetitions on each side. Next, place your leg out in front of you with your heel resting on an elevated support, knee slightly bent, back straight. Lean forward from the hips with hands extended toward the ankle. Like the warm-up stretches, these should be repeated three times on each side, holding for 20 to 30 seconds each. [Pg.136]

The inside of my head fogged with curiosity and the need to please. He lowered himself until his thighs connected to mine and my mouth was covered and I was all Aislabie, filled up by Aislabie, drinking him in as he worked his knees between mine, took hold of my buttocks and pushed harder, harder until I felt the knock on my womb and little red flames inside my thighs. Then he lifted himself out, kissed my wet belly, covered me up, and drew me back onto his lap. [Pg.38]

A dancing master was hired to show me how to wield a fan and dance a few simple sets, and, best of all, Aislabie set aside an hour each day to teach me hazard, backgammon, ombre, and cribbage. I loved the intimacy of those lessons held in the smoky little back room with the velvet curtains drawn and candles lit. He sat me on his knee so he could look at my hand and show me how to hold the cards close to my chest, and interspersed each instruction with kisses on my shoulder or the back of my neck, so that more often than not our games ended in the bedroom. [Pg.54]

You Can eostly toke the revolver owoy from him and then hold him by bending his arm bockword, with the bock of his elbow ogoinst your knee. [Pg.167]

Another application for tantalum alloys is in medical and dental applications. The metal has no effect on body tissues. It is used in artificial hips, knees, and other joints. Pins, screws, staples, and other devices used to holds bones together are also made of tantalum alloys. [Pg.572]

For this method of strangling an opponent to death, you need a piece of flexible wire or a piece of cord about three feet in length. Approach the enemy from his rear, holding an end of the wire or cord in eadi hand. Toss the wire or cord over his neck from his left and place the heel of your left hand, still holding the end of the wire or cord, on his shoulder near his nape. At the same time, place your knee in the small of the man s back and pull back on the cord or wire forcefully with your right hand while pushing with the left hand (fig. 48). If this is done quickly, your opponent cannot cry out. You can tie the ends of the rope or wire around two short sticks for a better hold. [Pg.377]

The easiest position for insertion is to lie the child down on his or her side with knees pulled up. Lubricate the suppository and insert 2-4 cm into the rectum. For a baby, use the little finger to insert for a child or young person, use the index finger. Then gently hold the child s buttocks together for 5 minutes if possible to prevent expulsion of the suppository. If the suppository is for laxative use ensure that the child has easy access to a toilet or potty. Parents... [Pg.246]

The surface hydration-hydroxylation structure of titania, proved previously mainly by IR studies using dry titania powders, also seems to hold when these powders are dispersed in water. An interesting approach, therefore, is to probe directly the uptake of water from the gas phase by DS-coated rutile surfaces [42]. Water adsorption isotherms are presented in Figure 52.14. The dual nature of titania surface sites, a property not seen with other common oxides such as silica and alumina, leads to an unusual type of water adsorption isotherm for titania. The isotherm shows two distinct knees (Figure 52.14) connected by a region where adsorption increases linearly with the partial vapor pressure of water. The explanation for this adsorption behavior is rather complex [42] and beyond the scope of this chapter. This behavior is believed to be due to the presence of hydrated surface cation sites. [Pg.698]
