My BP varies a lot in the two minutes it takes to take 3 readings, is this normal ? e.g.

119/72 then 138/77 a minute later !

more readings are here http://sdrv.ms/19pCLW5

Ok I'm writing a platform game exercise in VB 2008 I can create a ball and have its left and right movement linked to a keypress via the keyDown event.

I have then added a timer and added gravity with ball.top = ball.top + 4.

I have then added a platfrom and while loop in the timer that switches gravity off while the platform and ball are in collision.

However ...

Once the ball touches the platform the keypresses no longer work and I don't know why ? do I have to put the focus back to the keyDown Sub ?

Help !!!

code is here

Public Class Form1

Dim gravity As Integer = 4

Private Sub Form1_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles Me.KeyDown

If e.KeyCode = Keys.A Then

ball1.Left = ball1.Left - 4

End If

If e.KeyCode = Keys.W Then

ball1.Top = ball1.Top - 4

End If

' If e.KeyCode = Keys.D Then

'ball1.Left = ball1.Left + 4

'End If

End Sub

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

End Sub

Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick

ball1.Top = ball1.Top + gravity

While ball1.Top >= plat1.Top - 68

gravity = 0

End While

End Sub

End Class

Hi - I'm not too confident on this stuff - am I right ?

circle radius 2x has the same perimeter as a triangle whose sides are 2x+1 3x and 3x+4 solve for x

2pi2x = 2x+1 + 3x + 3x+4

2pi2x = 8x +5

2pi = 8x-2x +5

2pi-5 = 6x

x = 2pi-5 / 6

Thanks in advance

Can someon check my answer please -

mean median mode is 100gms standard deviation is 2 . Products less than 99g and above 100g are rejected. What is the probabilty of a product being rejected

1. 99-100/2 = -0.5 look up in table .6915 invert this(?) to give .3085

2. 105 - 100/2 = 2.5 look up in table .9938 invert this(?) to give .0068

3. add the two together to give .3147 probability of a product being rejected

many thanks

I have had blood tests done because of hypertension to test for liver function. The Full blood, glucose and cholesterol tests were ok but I have been asked to retest again (in 7 days) as the Doctor wanted to check kidney and liver function. This is all the info I can get from the receptionist, any idea what this could be about, is it something I should worry about ?
