![]() No real technical information is found in the manual under “Specifications” (at least that I could find), including the quartz oscillator frequency. Interestingly, the manual states: “To maintain this timekeeping accuracy, you must use the watch at ambient temperature (between +5 ☌ and +40 ☌) and carry it with you approximately 12 hours a day.” (Boldface mine.) I suppose we might assume that Citizen means to wear the watch approximately 12 hours a day. The specified accuracy is the same as that of the Chronomaster, within ± 5 seconds per year. In addition (also in line, I think, with the Chronomasters), Citizen offers two inspections and timing adjustments, free of charge, during the first 10 years of ownership, the first in the second year of use, the last in the eighth. These latter Seikos (at exactly the same MSRP as the new The Citizens) represent lesser quality than those GS quartz models of the past, with the differences being largely aesthetic.įirst, Citizen appears to have carried on the truly-excellent 10-year warranty with these new models. As an aside, Citizen appears to have followed Seiko with the latter’s introduction a couple of years ago now of their less-expensive Grand Seiko quartz models, designed for the international market-SBGX059, 061, 063 and 065. This all suggests some cost-cutting steps in the materials and manufacture of AQ1000-58-series models (appearing in aesthetic differences), and these will be identified later in this review. Like AQ1000-58E, this Chronomaster has a stainless steel (SS) case and is thus is less expensive than the titanium Chronomaster models. For example, the closest Chronomaster, CTQ57-1202 has a MSRP of 262,500 JPY. These prices are significantly lower than those of the Chronomaster series. Bargains are available, with 160,000 JPY being offered by some suppliers. As an additional resource, the manual for this new watch can be found at:Īt this point, there are two other models using this new A010 movement, AQ1000-58A (champagne dial) and AQ1000-58B (silver dial). In each picture, the AQ1000-58E is on the left and the older Chronomaster CTQ57-0955 on the right. I had a friend take them with my help, but neither of us is exactly photography-savvy. I’ll start the review with some pictures, for the quality of which I must apologize. I guess until that is done, we won’t know whether the newer Citizen A010 movement is little more than an A660 adapted for a light-replenished battery or something completely different. This review will be pretty superficial since I lack the intestinal fortitude to unscrew the back and look at the movement. A few weeks ago, I received The Citizen, Model AQ1000-58E, the new “eco-drive” (light-cell replenished battery) version of the quartz The Citizen (lord, that’s an awkward locution, but that’s the model’s name!) Since many HEQ forumers are already familiar with its predecessor, the Citizen Chronomaster (and since I have one, CTQ57-0955), it seemed like a good idea to review the newer model beside the older one. ![]() Topics covered by this course include, Anatomy & Physiology, Biochemistry, Biodiversity, Botany, The Cell, Developmental Biology, Ecology, Genetics, Molecular Biology, Origin of life, Population Biology, and Evolution. While some schools may have selective acceptance into the course, determined by academic record in prerequisite courses, other schools adhere to a policy of open enrollment, encouraging its undertaking by students that demonstrate capability for the course, though they may have performed unsatisfactorily in previous science courses. Enrollment requirements for the AP Biology course depend on policies established by each high school offering the course, but AP Biology is usually preceded by a less rigorous entry level Biology course, and sometimes by Chemistry as well. ![]() This course is offered to highly motivated students who wish to pursue their interests in the biological sciences. Because universities grant college credit for this course, they require that the textbooks, labs, and coursework used by AP courses be equivalent to those used in actual college courses. Students who choose to take AP Biology may be allowed to skip over introductory biology courses and enroll in courses in which biology is a prerequisite. The level of aptitude in this subject will assist students wishing to excel on the SAT and in college courses.Īccording to the College Board’s website, AP Biology courses are designed to be the equivalent of a college introductory course, usually taken during a biology major’s first year of college. This course can help prepare students who wish to continue their scientific education after high school, as well as students who wish to prepare for the SAT exam. ![]() If one of the baby’s parents suffered from the condition, there is a greater chance of the baby suffering from it too.Īs already mentioned above, the condition is more common in babies who are given antibiotics after birth or whose mothers take antibiotics while they breastfeed their baby. The condition also affects a greater number of white babies as compared to Hispanics, blacks and Asians. Pyloric stenosis affects males more than females with firstborns usually more prone to it. There is hardly a case of pyloric stenosis in babies who are aged six months or older. The condition usually manifests itself in the first few weeks. How Common Is Pyloric Stenosis?Įvery one in five hundred young babies go on to develop pyloric stenosis. In other cases, baby projectile vomiting is associated with the use of antibiotics by the mother either during the latter part of pregnancy or while breastfeeding the baby. In some cases, pyloric stenosis is associated with using erythromycin during the first two weeks after the baby is born. It is normally believed that pyloric stenosis is a result of multiple factors. There is no exact known cause of pyloric stenosis. The thickening of pylorus is a gradual process and the baby would start showing symptoms once the muscle thickens to the point that the stomach can’t empty properly any longer. Pyloric stenosis is not a birth defect and develops in babies after they are born. There is a noticeable contraction around the baby’s upper abdomen just after feeding if the baby suffers from pyloric stenosis, as the stomach is trying to pressurize the fluid to pass the pylorus. ![]() ![]() This happens because the milk can’t pass through to the intestine and the baby gets ready for a forceful vomit. ![]() Pyloric stenosis symptoms: It usually causes the baby to feed in a very eager manner but makes the baby very anxious or fretful once the feeding ends. The problem comes up if projectile vomit becomes a habit for the baby. An occasional projectile vomit is usually fine. However, it is not like all cases of baby projectile vomiting turn out to be pyloric stenosis. However, with the pylorus too thick (thus the opening being too narrow) to let anything pass, the milk finds an easy path upwards, moves upwards rather than moving downwards and therefore, the milk travels quickly from the esophagus and the baby endures a projectile vomit. The stomach therefore contracts to apply extra pressure on the milk to move into the small intestine. As a result, it stops the stomach from pushing the milk into the small intestine. The condition affects the pylorus (muscle at the stomach’s outlet) and makes it thicker than normal. Projectile vomiting in babies sometimes points to pyloric stenosis which is a condition that normally affects babies aged between two and eight weeks. However, if the baby can’t keep most of the feeds in and throws them out via large and forceful vomits, you would have to take your baby to a doctor.īaby Projectile Vomiting Can Be a Problem If your baby vomits forcefully after a feed but keeps other feeds down without any issues, then you shouldn’t worry. The phenomenon is more common in babies with baby projectile vomiting sometimes being indicative of pyloric stenosis. Projectile vomit is the name given to the vomit which arrives with a great amount of force and usually travels a small distance horizontally before dropping down. ![]() Leviton told me he read that column and sympathized that seniors on fixed incomes had to go through such difficulties reclaiming their cash. After I got involved, the $22,000 was restored to the Hansens’ account within days. ![]() The bank was unaware anything was wrong until the Hansens asked what happened to their money.Ĭhase dragged its feet for about a month. Incredibly, none of that suspicious activity was noticed by Chase. They related how someone hijacked their account, had new checks printed up with multiple names and addresses, and made off with $22,000. My earlier column about Donna and Michael Hansen attested to this. The American Bankers Assn., for its part, says scammers have been especially active since the start of the pandemic.Ĭon artists “have increased their efforts to gather customer information that lets them hack accounts,” said Paul Benda, senior vice president of risk and cyber policy for the industry group. “But this other guy was given $19,000? Even my rep at the bank couldn’t believe this happened.”Ĭhase, as you’ll see, had little to say to me about the matter. “They won’t let me touch the money in my account,” he said. Leviton said he made multiple calls to Chase and couldn’t get any more information than this, not least how what would seem to be an obvious act of fraud could have been perpetrated despite his account being frozen and in the process of being shut down. Chase proceeded to transfer $19,000 to the bogus account from Leviton’s account to cover the overdraft. ![]() The guy on the other side of the country then made a purchase for $19,000, money that wasn’t in the joint account. Leviton said the rep dug a little deeper and said it appeared that a man on the East Coast - presumably the same one who went after the $60,000 - had opened a joint Chase account in both his and Leviton’s names. “I asked how that could happen if the account was frozen and I myself couldn’t access any of the money. “That’s when the rep told me that someone had just transferred $19,000 out of the account,” Leviton said. Business Column: If this is the best banks can do to prevent fraud, we’re in a lot of troubleĭespite several signs of suspicious activity, Chase bank did nothing to prevent a scammer from raiding a Southern California couple’s checking account.Ī few days later, Leviton told me, he stopped by the Chase branch to ask when his funds would be released. |
