I PLAYED ON THE BLOOD GULCH MAP!!!

So, my sibling and I are working through the original xbox halo 2 campaign but on our xbox 360 (RIP 360 support). And every time we go to split-screen it's set for slayer on ivory tower. Well, the other day we decided to see what that was about so we hit play instead of switching to co-op campaign like we usually do. There is a special kind of fun about killing your sibling over and over again in a videogame.

And today we decided to explore the other game modes and maps. Slayer is the only mode you can do with 2 people, so that was a slight bummer. But, then we saw it. That beloved map introduced to us by Red vs Blue. It was called Coagulation, but the terrain was unmistakable. We spawned in, I as red, my sibling as blue. And we decided to explore a bit of that glorious map ourselves for the first time ever. We will definitely be returning.

I found Sheila. She wasn't very useful with the banshee in the sky. May she rest in peace... I couldn't manage to find Grif's screaming cave, but I am pretty sure I found where Church died that first time. Getting to explore such a historical site ourselves was a very cool and exciting experience. It was almost like we were walking through history itself. Next time we will explore more of Blood gulch and see what the other maps hold as well.

Blood Gulch. Amazing place to explore. Lots of things to do and see. 5 stars.

Also, after we went through some of the campaign, we ended on high charity. But, before we stopped playing we decided to fool around a bit and my sibling got on top of the crashed pelican and I went inside it. Turns out, you can sort of get in the cockpit, but it glitches and you can actually see out the sides of the cockpit as if there were no walls there. Nothing can get to you through the walls, and you can't get to anything either. But, you can see through it and there is something extremely disconcerting about a bunch of flood just standing there, staring in your direction. What's even more terrifying though is trying to sharp-shoot a hunter as it comes barreling towards you and it just...not stopping. It was the level The Gravemind and we were working our way through high charity chasing truth. In one of those long hallway things, I was zoomed in using a carbine and the hunter I was shooting at was running down the slope at me as I was shooting it and it was terrifying to watch. I was emptying my gun into it and it did not fricking stop. I had to zoom out and back up before it got to me. I don't remember how we finally killed it, but I think there were grenades involved. Were playing on heroic by the way. I cannot imagine playing on legendary. We already die so much just on heroic. I wonder if this is how the covenant feel when fighting chief.

As given in eqn 6.9, Stokes' law determines the terminal velocity of settling velocity (Fig. 6.1) of spherical particles falling under the force of gravity in a fluid.

where νt = terminal velocity of particles / m/s, ρp = density of particle / g/m³, ρa = density of air = 1.2×10³ g/m³ at P° and 25°C, C = the Stokes-Cunningham slip correction factor (see Table 6.4), g = 9.8 m/s² = acceleration due to gravity, dp = particle diameter / m, and η = viscosity of air = 1.9×10-² g/m·s at P° and 25°C.

Estimates of terminal or settling velocities are included in Table 6.4 and Fig. 6.1.

The Importance of Vitamin K in Surgical Procedures and Clotting

In the intricate dance of blood clotting and surgical interventions, one often-overlooked player is Vitamin K. This essential nutrient plays a pivotal role in ensuring blood coagulation, bone health, and even cardiovascular wellness. Understanding the importance of Vitamin K in surgical procedures and clotting can lead to better patient outcomes and improved recovery rates. Let’s delve deeper into this vital topic to appreciate its significance in healthcare.

Understanding Vitamin K: The Basics

Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin primarily known for its role in blood clotting. It exists in two forms: Vitamin K1 (phylloquinone), found in leafy green vegetables like spinach and kale, and Vitamin K2 (menaquinone), synthesized by gut bacteria and found in fermented foods like cheese and natto. Both forms are crucial for various physiological functions, especially clotting factors that prevent excessive bleeding during surgeries and injuries.

Vitamin K and Blood Clotting

The blood clotting process, also known as coagulation, involves a series of complex steps that ultimately stop bleeding. Vitamin K contributes to this process by activating proteins essential for clot formation. The liver produces several clotting factors, such as prothrombin and factors VII, IX, and X, which require Vitamin K for their activation. Without adequate Vitamin K, these clotting factors remain inactive, leading to prolonged bleeding times—a significant concern during surgical procedures.

Implications for Surgical Procedures

During surgeries, maintaining optimal blood clotting is paramount to prevent excessive bleeding and ensure successful outcomes. Patients deficient in Vitamin K may experience challenges in achieving adequate clotting, leading to increased surgical complications and longer recovery times. Healthcare providers must assess patients' Vitamin K status preoperatively to anticipate and mitigate potential clotting issues during and after surgery.

Vitamin K Deficiency and Complications

A deficiency in Vitamin K can have serious consequences beyond surgical procedures. It can lead to spontaneous bleeding, easy bruising, and in severe cases, hemorrhage. Patients with malabsorption conditions like Crohn’s disease, those taking certain medications like blood thinners, or individuals with restricted diets may be at higher risk for Vitamin K deficiency. Identifying and addressing these deficiencies pre-surgery can significantly reduce complications and improve patient outcomes.

Benefits Beyond Clotting: Bone Health and Cardiovascular Wellness

While Vitamin K's role in clotting is well-known, its contributions to bone health and cardiovascular wellness are equally noteworthy. Vitamin K2, in particular, helps regulate calcium deposition in bones, promoting bone strength and reducing the risk of fractures. Moreover, adequate Vitamin K intake has been linked to improved cardiovascular health by preventing calcium buildup in arteries, potentially reducing the risk of heart disease and strokes.

Ensuring Adequate Vitamin K Levels

To optimize surgical outcomes and overall health, healthcare providers should prioritize assessing and maintaining adequate Vitamin K levels in patients, especially those undergoing surgical procedures or at risk of deficiency. This may involve dietary adjustments, supplementation when necessary, and close monitoring of patients with known risk factors for Vitamin K deficiency.

Elevating Patient Care with Vitamin K Awareness

In conclusion, understanding the importance of Vitamin K in surgical procedures and clotting is crucial for delivering optimal patient care. By recognizing and addressing Vitamin K deficiencies preoperatively, healthcare providers can mitigate clotting complications, reduce surgical risks, and improve patient recovery times. At patientselftesting, we emphasize the critical role of Vitamin K in healthcare, ensuring comprehensive care and better outcomes for our patients undergoing surgical procedures. Incorporating Vitamin K awareness into clinical practice is a proactive step toward enhanced patient safety and well-being.

taking a break from actually writing to ponder the idea of trying to give johnny the silent treatment as punishment after an argument (not mature i know, i know, but i'll be honest...guilty, your honor) but he's being so annoying about it that you're actually just punishing yourself.

All dramatic sighs and longing looks as he corners you when you're about to leave for work. "Just one kiss, bonnie, please. Ah'll do anythin'. Please." With those stupid bright blue puppy eyes staring you down as you try to avoid his gaze. But he'll just tilt his head down to aim for your lips while saying, 'please' *failed kiss* 'please' *oh he managed to get your cheek there* 'please, sweet lass, c'mon.' until you just have to just give in and let him kiss you so you aren't late for work.

oh and while you're there, he'll send you flowers. the biggest flower arrangement he could order online. he had to put down a down payment.

and his desperation for you apparently has no reprieve, because just before you turn out the light on your bedside table so you can go to sleep in the tense silence you planned, his hand reaches over to grasp your arm and halt your movement.

"Ah ken ye dinnae feel like talkin', but we can still...ye know..." You shoot him a look as his hand begins to creep over to touch your thigh beneath the covers, and his eyes turn pleading as he continues "Ye don' even have te say anythin' durin' et! Just lemme-" *smack to his hand* "LASS, PLEASE"
