![]() ![]() If there is some previous connection I have or I saw a call for pitches somewhere then I mention that quickly - e.g. In the opening paragraph, I typically jump pretty quickly into the pitch as I did here. If I’m sending to a general email inbox and don’t know the editor’s name then I just go with the standard “Hello,” But I generally think it’s pretty standard these days to just use a first name. Soandso with something like this but I typically just use first names and so far it has worked fine (although I guess I would not really know if any editors secretly hate me). Salutation : If I have an editor’s name, I typically write “Dear Firstname.” I sometimes see (surprisingly heated) debates about whether you should be more formal and use Dear Ms./Mr. This piece follows a fairly basic format for pitches that I try to use: I’ve written parenting essays for Today’s Parent, The Washington Post, and Mom.com. I'm proposing a 700-word essay on the topic. ![]() Now that my kids are school-aged, I’ve come to realize that parenting is a mix of emotions and also involves sometimes feeling the same opposing feelings at the same time. ![]() That time your toddler bit her baby sister while you were trying to survive the Target checkout line? Okay to put on the “things to not cherish” list. The problem is that the new parent is not cherishing every moment because no one enjoys every single moment of their life and because a lot of parenting moments are rage-inducing and/or not enjoyable. People (typically with older kids) look wistfully at people with younger kids and think about all the good times they had and then proceed to tell a new parent that they should enjoy every moment. I am writing to pitch an essay about why I don't love the "cherish every moment" comment that many new parents get. I get where the sentiment comes from. In any event, here is a recent(ish) pitch of mine: However, there are times when a publication specifically says they want a pitch and not a full piece and in those cases, I send a pitch (although I sometimes still have at least a rough draft of the essay written, thus making the pitch easier to write). But some people thrive on a deadline or have different situations so they make different choices. I typically still write a draft of a short essay before I submit it partially because of a lack of time-sometimes a pitch will get accepted and they want a quick turnaround just as I have a million papers to grade and one of my kids gets sick and has to stay home from school and so writing it becomes more stressful. Once you have published more, you might opt to pitch more so you don’t get into the business of writing a piece that you can’t find a home for. If you are new to publishing essays and don’t have existing clips to show that you can do what you say you are going to do, you may have more success just submitting the full piece. If you are aiming for a market that is open to an essay pitch, I think it depends on different factors whether you pitch or submit the full piece. Some pubs (like Huff Post, I have heard) will look at a pitch to see if the idea is a fit but then still want to see a full draft before they can accept it, but other pubs will buy an essay only on a pitch. a pitch, but for short personal essays that run in popular press markets, you can often pitch them instead. literary), you should typically submit the full piece vs. I more often write the full essay and submit it. Last month I asked about what kind of successful pitches you would want to see and an essay was the winner, so I am kicking off the new year with this bonus newsletter post that contains an example personal essay pitch of mine that was accepted.īefore we get to the pitch, I am going to add the disclaimer that I don’t often pitch essays.

![]() A few more rebuilt pieces that also remained unmolested, and begin to develop small cult followings of their own.Īt the end of the day folks should do what they want with their guns. A few factory original correct pieces that got "liberated" early on and remained unmolested.ī. Given enough time, the field ends up with:Ī. The weapons in that final arsenal-rebuilt configuration in the military eventually start drying up, as they get torn apart as organ donors in the correcting process.ĥ. A few bucks, some pleasant evenings on Ebay, some time with references that may or may not be accurate, and voila! A crappy mixmaster becomes a valuable, rare, and desired "correct" (actually "corrected") example!Ĥ. Realizing that collectors want "correct" pieces, a great deal of effort is then expended in "correcting" guns. Collectors, shooters, and everyone in between gets ahold of them.ģ. When the military is finally done with it, it gets out into the wild, still presumably in the final configuration in which the military had it. This results in the rarity of the "factory original/correct" piece that collectors drool over.Ģ. The military squeezes every bit of use they can get out of the weapon, including upgrading it to later specifications, refinishing, rebuilding, mixing parts. The Circle of Life of collecting seems to follow some typical steps:ġ. The only logical reason for Vulcan to sand blast the barrel would be to remove rust/pitting/corrosion.Collectors historically turn their noses up at arsenal rebuilds, but collecting sentiments can change. Arsenal refurbished barrels would be parkerized. The sand-blasted and then blued barrels being offered by Vulcan are not a correct finish for any original or arsenal refurbished barrel. This is how all original M1911A1 barrels looked: You can see matte finish on this original US&S with the smooth barrel hood showing threw the injection port. The barrels however WERE NOT sand blasted, and you can see the difference in appearance on strong condition original pistols threw the ejection port. This is often referred to as the 'du-lite' finish by collectors. A search of the forum will provide a lot more info on these books, they will give you a good starting point.Įarly Remington Rands, early Ithaca's, and all US&S M1911A1's were lightly sand blasted and blued to be given a 'matte' appearance prior to parkerizing becoming the standard military finish for WWII production. If you can't find a copy of Clawson's small book, I've heard Joe Poyer's publication is pretty decent and still available. If you're interested in learning more about original 1911's there's a lot of good books on the market these days, I would try to find a used copy of Clawson's small collectors guide to M1911 and M1911A1's. The top barrel you posted is definitely re-finished without any doubt. This is a long accepted basic fact about period 1911 barrels. ![]() No original 1911, M1911, or M1911A1 barrels were factory bead-blasted or given a 'matte' appearance. Hooray for the Colts, Remington Rands, Ithaca's, and other company's who built a pistol that defines reliability, power, accuracy, and the personality of the nation who designed, improved, and provided it's soldiers and citizens with a weapon that says "America" whether they are in a safe, holster, or competition. Thank God Colt built it, and other company's produced enough of them that even after more than 70 years anyone owning one of them can be recognized as a shooter of discriminating, appreciative, and patriotic values. Modern may be better, more reliable, better engineered, and less expensive.īut no other pistol will have been carried in FOUR wars, brought back from wars by Grandad's and Grandfather's, passed down from father to son, to grandson, and great-grandson, and be recognized by any collector, enthusiast, shooter, or historian as being the definition of military sidearm. I have fired other pistols for thousands of rounds, and despite shooting them more, I like them less. They are fantastic looking pistols, a joy to shoot, and exciting to handle. I own several pistols and only two of them are WWII M1911A1's, yet they are my favorites despite rarely shooting them, and NEVER carrying them. Why knock anyone who has decided to spend their money on "THE" pistol of the last two centuries? The 1911A1, and it's fans have taken a whipping for years, since many new shooters have arrived and accepted the GLOCKS, and other plastic guns. Isn't the fact that this man owns a WWII M1911A1 enough? ![]()

However, this can be automatically converted to compatible units via the pull-down menu. Water attains its maximum density at about 4☌ because it is at that temperature that hydrogen bonds form.

The force of crystallization of ice is capable of bursting water pipes and causes expansions of cracks in rocks, thus accelerating the erosion of mountains!Ī rough sketch of water molecules in ice crystal form is below.The Density of Water by Temperature calculator computes the density of water as a function of temperature, using the standard density of water (ρ) at standard temperature and pressure, and the unique temperature expansion coefficient of water. ![]() Have you or a family member (you wouldn't admit to this would you?) ever left a full container of water with a tight-fitting lid (or even a can of soda?) in the freezer? In other words, 10 cups of water put into the freezer is going to turn into 11 cups of ice when it freezes (oops). We are all aware that expansion of liquid water to ice exerts a tremendous force. Once the oceans filled with ice, life there would not be possible. If water did not expand when freezing, then it would be denser than liquid water when it froze therefore it would sink and fill lakes or the ocean from bottom to top. However, at 4 degrees Celsius, it reaches the maximum density of 1 and then starts. For example, fish in a pond survive the winter because ice forms on top of a pond (it floats) and effectively insulates (does not conduct heat from the pond to the atmosphere as efficiently) the rest of the pond below, preventing it from freezing from top to bottom (or bottom to top). It contracts (gets denser) as it cools down just like other materials. This latter property is very important for organisms in the oceans and/or freshwater lakes. For this reason, ice floats on the water (like an ice cube in a glass of water). In fact, its volume is a little over 9% greater (or density ca. Water expands when it freezes making it less dense than the water from which it freezes. Water, however, is unique in that it bonds in such a way that the molecules are held farther apart in the solid form (ice) than in the liquid. For nearly every known chemical compound, the molecules are held closer together (bonded) in the solid state (e.g., in mineral form or ice) than in the liquid state. When water freezes, however, bonds are formed that lock the molecules in place in a regular (hexagonal) pattern. This effect also helps explain why you are supposed to add salt to ice when making ice cream or to add salt to water when cooking spaghetti (although, in this case, the effect on boiling point is minor and the added salt is mainly for flavor). Increasing salinity also lowers the temperature of maximum density. Normal seawater freezes at -2˚ C, 2˚ C colder than pure water. Incidentally, increasing salinity increases the boiling point and decreases the freezing point. As you add salts to seawater, you also change some other properties. The density of average seawater with a salinity of 35 o/oo (35 g/kg) and at 4˚ C is 1.028 g/cm3 as compared to 1.000g/cm3 for pure water. Please visit our dedicated page on this topic on https. If you heat it or cool it, it will expand. However, as dissolved solids are added to pure water to increase the salinity, the density increases. The basic water density at 4 degrees Celsius is equal to 62.4264 lb/ft3, so these 2 results do not differ significantly as you see. 4 degrees C turns out to be the temperature at which liquid water has the highest density. ![]()

As an example, sounds produced by vibrations in the heart muscle and valves are readily transferred across the similar tissue of the chest wall. At interfaces with closely matched acoustical properties, there will be little attenuation of the sound wave. Reflection occurs at the interface of two media with different acoustical properties resulting in decreased intensity of the transmitted sound wave. Different media will dampen vibrations at different rates and over different frequencies. Dampening of the sound wave results in decreased amplitude and thus decreased sound intensity. ![]() The sound quality is determined by the complexity of the pressure wave.ĭifferent compressible media have different acoustical properties that affect the transmission of sound. The sound pitch is determined by the frequency (cycles per second or Hz) and the intensity or loudness is determined by the amplitude of the pressure waves. Sound is produced by vibrations in air or other compressible media that are transmitted as waves and provide the stimulus for the subjective sensation of hearing. ![]() In order to accomplish this goal, it is necessary to understand the basic principles of sound production and transmission. The goal of clinical auscultation is to relate the sounds heard to the underlying pathology of the tissues examined. Principles of Sound Production and Transmission Since then, the stethoscope has evolved into its current form and has become one of the most cost effective diagnostic instruments available to clinicians. It was not until the early 1800’s that the stethoscope was “discovered” by Rene Laennec (1781 to 1826) who used a rolled cylinder of paper to listen to a patient’s chest. Robert Hooke (1635 to 1703)Įarly auscultation was performed by placing one’s ear directly on the patient’s body. I have been able to hear very plainly the beating of a man’s heart… who knows, I say, but that it may be possible to discover the motions of the internal parts of bodies… by the sound they make. With each movement of the heart, when there is the delivery of a quantity of blood from the veins to the arteries, a pulse takes place and can be heard within the chest. You shall know by this that the chest contains water and not pus, if in applying the ear during a certain time on the side, you perceive a noise like that of boiling vinegar. There are several historical references to auscultation in medical literature. The intensity and character of breath sounds help determine the location and pathology of thoracic disease.Īuscultation, or listening to the sounds within the body, is a fundamental examination procedure in clinical medicine. Abnormal, or adventitious, sounds are classified as crackles, wheezes, stertor, and stridor. Normal breath sounds are classified as bronchial, bronchovesicular, and vesicular. The character of the sound that is heard at the surface is determined by the factors influencing the production of the sound, and acoustical characteristics of the intervening tissues. Breath sounds originate in the large airways due to turbulence in airflow. Differences in the acoustical density of tissues result in attenuation, reflection, and refraction of these sound waves. Auscultable sounds originate as mechanical vibrations within compressible media that are then transmitted through the tissues as sound waves. Differences in the intensity and character of sounds can be useful in distinguishing underlying thoracic pathology. Many clues as to both respiratory and cardiac function and disease can be obtained through proper auscultation. Thoracic auscultation and percussion are two of the most useful and economical procedures of a physical examination.
