GDC stands for the Institute of Genetic Disease Control. GDC formerly maintained canine health databases similar to those of the OFA. In the Fall of 2002, the GDC databases were merged with the OFA. Numbers beginning with GDC indicate that the evaluation was performed by GDC prior to the merge.

Ascending numerical identifier given to each animal within a breed evaluated as normal and given a number, in this case the 100th Labrador to be given a number E = The phenotypic OFA evaluation, in this case E = Excellent, other normal phenotypes include G (Good) and F (Fair). PI - Indicates that the animal has been permanently identified in the form of tattoo or microchip.

Spondylosis is another incidental radiographic finding where smooth new bone production is visualized between vertebral bodies at the intervertebral disc spaces. The new bone production can vary in extent from formation of small bone spurs to complete bridging of adjacent vertebral bodes. Spondylosis may occur secondary to spinal instability but often it is of unknown cause and clinically insignificant. A familial basis for its development has been reported.

The current OFA fees went into effect on January 1, 2008. However, many clinics are still using old application cards with the outdated fees. It should be noted that although an outstanding balance will not hold up the evaluation process, no results will be released and no final reports will be mailed until the fees are paid in full.

That 10-10-10 on the bag or bottle is best explained by remembering "up, down, all-around". The first number is the percentage of nitrogen by weight. Nitrogen promotes growth and green-up. The second number is the percentage of phosphorus by weight and is helpful for good root growth. The third number is the percentage of potassium by weight which promotes all-around plant health such as hardiness and disease resistance. Gordon's currently has 3 liquid fertilizers and a granular weed and feed.

The OFA website is updated several times a month. However, there is a short waiting period between the time an application finishes and the data is uploaded to the web to allow time for the printed report to reach the owner. No. Information is not uploaded to the website until the evaluation has been completed and reports mailed. The OFA website is currently updated several times a month. Transitional vertebra is an incidental radiographic finding noted during the evaluation process.

The OFA does not require dogs to be purebred or registered in order to perform an OFA evaluation or to register test results into our databases.

The software can detect numbered headings. Any lines that begin with numbers are checked to see if they are the next heading. This check includes checking the number is (nearly) in sequence, and that the line is (nearly) at the right indentation. If the line meets these criteria, it is likely to become the next heading, often causing the real heading to be ignored, and sometimes completely upsetting the numbering sequence.

Remember that there was no common year 0. The year preceding the common year 1 is the year -1 on my dropdown list. So this would correspond exactly to what is meant by 1 BCE (before the common era). Similarly -100 would be 100 BCE, etc.

Numbers will be automatically added to the end of an auto-received file if there is a name conflict in the auto-receive directory. The numbers indicate the time that the file was received. For example, say that you have a file called "MyFile.txt" in your auto-receive directory, and someone sends you a file named "MyFile.txt." The second "MyFile.txt" will have the time placed at the end, such as "MyFile.txt103215" indicating that the file was started at about 10:30 am.

The federal government requires all air conditioning and heating equipment to be rated for efficiency. The higher the rating, the more efficient the model. Gas furnaces are rated for (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency). This defines the amount of heat used to warm your home from the burned fuel. A 90% furnace will use 90% of the available heat to heat your home. 10% of the heat is vented outdoors. Many older gas furnaces are only 60% efficient. The other 40% is vented outdoors.

When someone posts numbers in this fashion: 200/180/160, it means that their beginning wieght was 200, thier current weight is 180 and their goal weight is 160. BEGINNING LBS/CURRENT LBS/GOAL LBS.

The numbers in parenthesis next to the category name tell how many ads have been posted in that category.

Collectors frequently refer to these numbers as "mold numbers." However, in some cases, this term oversimplifies what the numbers represented. Originally when jars were blown by hand, the number represented a specific glass blower and his team. At the end of the day the blower and his team would get paid for the amount of jars they produced as determined by the number of jars made with a given number on them. I.E.

The first row is the number of pages indexed by a selection of search engines. This tells you how many pages on the selected domain are indexed in each of the search engines listed. If no pages appear, then the domain has probably not been listed yet and it needs to be submitted to the search engines in the normal way. If you have selected search phrases, then results will appear for each phrase.
