This hearing type is in response to an attorney or defendant requesting some type of relief from the judge (i.e. Motion to Set Aside a Bench Warrant, Motion for Continuance).

The motion of a point on the ground during a small or distant earthquake can be so small that only specialized, precision instruments can record it. When the earthquake is larger (or closer), that motion will be larger. When the motion reaches the level where humans can feel it, typically a 1-2 %g, it is often called strong motion. This is an actually an arbitrary level, meant to communicate the level qualitatively, as when one says "heavy rain" vs. "light rain". See similar questions...

There are two things of interest here, namely "casing" and "top flavouring." They are two distinctly different approaches to altering a blend's flavor. Some tobaccos employ both. Casing requires that the tobacco be soaked, literally, in a "sauce" that may contain sugar, molasses, liquorice, alcohols like rum or whiskey, and various flavourings, natural or otherwise, depending on the manufacturer.

A false positive hearing screening test result is when a baby does not have a hearing loss but the newborn does not pass the hearing screening. Hearing screening tests are not meant to diagnose hearing loss in infants. Instead, they are meant to find all infants that might have a hearing loss. Because they are not a diagnostic test, hearing screening tests sometimes misidentify infants as having a hearing loss. See similar questions...

Every hearing aid takes a specific size battery. Companies now have a new-color coded system to help customers better remember and match their battery with their aid. Look through your hearing aid manual to determine the size. For future reference just remember your color to purchase the correct size. See similar questions...

Yes, some hearing devices are more “immune” than others to the interference noise created by a digital wireless phone. If your hearing device is vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to successfully use a phone that has been tested and rated as hearing aid compatible. Ask your hearing healthcare professional if your hearing aid has EMI "shielding" or if the circuitry design is more immune to interference. See similar questions...

A standard technology engine brake consists of a solenoid valve, control valve, and master and slave pistons. These components are assembled into a housing as shown below. When the brake is activated, the solenoid allows oil to pass to the control valve. The control valve moves up and the check ball in the control valve is unseated, allowing oil to fill the master/slave piston circuit. See similar questions...

You are delinquent in paying your plan payments to the Trustee, and he is asking the judge to dismiss your case. You have 15 days from the date the Motion was mailed to become fully current or to file and serve an objection to the Trustee's Motion to Dismiss. If you are not fully current (including any plan payments that have come due since the Trustee's motion was mailed) by the "action date" on the first page of the Motion to Dismiss, your case will be dismissed.

Does it matter where you get your glasses or who you see for other health-related issues? Certainly. See someone that is highly trained so that he/she can offer you sufficient skill to meet your hearing needs. Also, see someone that you are comfortable with. Are they out to help you and meet your hearing needs or are they always out to “sell you something?” Hearing aids are extremely labor intensive. Hearing aids will not restore normal hearing functions and are subject to breakage. See similar questions...

Sound enters your ears in sound waves. These sound waves hit your eardrum and are converted to pressure changes in the inner ear. This causes special nerves to impulse, which are read by your brain as sound. When these nerves are exposed to a surplus of pressure changes, they may become damaged. You may have noticed that if you listen to loud music for several hours that your ears "ring." This is a Temporary Threshold Shift, or a temporary reduction in hearing. See similar questions...

overproduction of NO gas, from chronic or acute immune stimulation, can cause glutathione to become severely depleted. This is especially the case in those who are nutritionally lacking in certain amino acids, and also in those who have a strong redox disposition. This strong depletion of glutathione switches the immunity to the Type-II cytokine pattern, in which immune cells do not produce NO gas but instead make antibodies. See similar questions...

The number in the type column indicates a limitation for that license. The limitation may restrict the hunter to the taking of a specific sex of animal, a specific season, a specific type of weapon or a portion of the area. If there is no type number opposite the hunt area number, the area is valid for general license. When applying be sure to check the limitation and type column following the hunt area. This limitation defines, when, where and how that particular license can be used. See similar questions...

Answer: Type K thermocouples are one of the common, standard thermocouples. They use Chromel (a special alloy of Chromium and Nickel) and Alumel (a special alloy of Aluminium and Nickel) as the two dissimilar metals to generate the voltage. This pair of metals has been studied extensively and the temperature-voltage correspondence is well known. See similar questions...
