Brands and Brand Lines
- While the products have distinct differences, they are in the same product category.
- An example of a brand extension is Jell-O gelatin creating Jello pudding pops.
- Due to the established success of the parent brand, consumers will have instant recognition of the product name and will be more likely to try the new line extension.
- Most of the literature focuses on the consumer evaluation and positive impact on a parent brand.
- In practical cases, the failures of brand extension are at a higher rate than the successes.
-
Renal Calculi
- Natural remedies are available which can help in passing the kidney stone with ease.
- Drinking cranberry juice and green tea has been said to help dissolve and reduce the size of kidney stones.
- Kidney stones typically leave the body by passage in the urine stream, and many stones are formed and passed without causing symptoms.
- The diagnosis of kidney stones is made on the basis of information obtained from the history, physical examination, urinalysis, and radiographic studies.
- Sometimes, a tube (ureteral stent) may be placed in the ureter to bypass the obstruction and alleviate the symptoms, and to prevent ureteral stricture after ureteroscopic stone removal.

Sculpture of the Aztecs
- The grand city of Tenochtitlan contained some of the finest examples of Aztec sculpture, from its temples and pyramids to its elaborate stone palaces.
- One of the most well known Aztec sculptures is the Calendar Stone.
- Also known as the Mexican Sun Stone, Stone of the Sun, or Stone of the Five Eras, it is a large monolithic sculpture that was excavated in the Zócalo, Mexico City's main square, on December 17, 1790.

Product Line Depth
- The former is a full-line strategy while the latter is called a limited-line strategy.
- Brand extension: strong brand preference allows the company to introduce the related product under the brand umbrella (e.g.
- Jell-O introduces pie filling and diet desserts under the Jell-O brand name)
- Finally, the danger of the original product becoming outmoded is hedged.
- A great many of the components used in the latest automobile have replaced far more expensive parts, due to the increased costs in other areas of the process, such as labor.

The Stone Age
- The Stone Age is the first of the three-age system of archaeology, which divides human technological prehistory into three periods: the Stone Age, Bronze Age, and Iron Age.
- The Stone Age lasted roughly 3.4 million years, from 30,000 BCE to about 3,000 BCE, and ended with the advent of metalworking.
- The art of the Stone Age represents the first accomplishments in human creativity, preceding the invention of writing.
- The Paleolithic era is characterized by the emergence of basic stone tools and stone art in the archaeological record.
- Create a timeline of the Paleolithic, Mesolithic, and Neolithic Periods of the Stone Age, giving a brief description of the art from each period

Neolithic Monuments
- However, the same system of felled trees and earthen mounds involved with the blue stones was still required in the transport and erection of the stones.
- One of the best known prehistoric sites in the United Kingdom, Avebury contains the largest stone circle in Europe.
- Constructed over several hundred years in the third millennium BCE, the monument comprises a large henge with a large outer stone circle and two separate smaller stone circles situated inside the center of the monument.
- Much of the art was carved on the backs of stones, which is a phenomenon known as hidden art.
- Key to plan: (1) The Altar Stone, (2) barrow without a burial, (3) "barrows" without burials, (4) the fallen Slaughter Stone, (5) the Heel Stone, (6) two of originally four Station Stones, (7) ditch, (8) inner bank, (9) outer bank, (10) the Avenue, (11) ring of 30 pits called the Y Holes, (12) ring of 29 pits called the Z Holes, (13) circle of 56 pits, known as the Aubrey holes, (14) smaller southern entrance.

Paleolithic Artifacts
- The Paleolithic era has a number of artifacts that range from stone, bone, and wood tools to stone sculptures.
- The Paleolithic era is characterized by the use of stone tools, although at the time humans also used wood and bone tools.
- Constructed using flint and bone, the stone is believed to represent the upper part of a face, while the bone has been interpreted as eyes.
- The area was also the site of discovery of many stone and bone tools such as hoes, scrapers, points, and gougers.
- Made from ochre, the stones are engraved with abstract patterns, and while they are simpler than prehistoric cave paintings found in Europe, some scholars believe these engraved stones represent the earliest known artworks, dating from 75,000 years ago.

Stonework on Easter Island
- The Rapa Nui people had a Stone Age culture that made extensive use of several different types of local stone, including basalt, obsidian, red scoria, and tuff.
- The large stone statues for which Easter Island is world-famous, known as moai, were carved from 1100–1680 CE.
- A total of 887 monolithic stone statues have been inventoried on the island and in museum collections so far.
- These stone platforms evolved from the traditional Polynesian marae.
- One of the highest-quality examples of Easter Island stone masonry is the rear wall of the ahu at Vinapu.

Gallstones
- The gallbladder may contain a single large stone or many smaller ones.
- On the basis of their composition, gallstones can be divided into the following types: cholesterol stones, pigment stones and mixed stones .
- Pigment stones are small, dark stones made of bilirubin and calcium salts found in bile.
- Symptoms commonly begin to appear once the stones reach a certain size (>8 mm).
- The large, yellowish calculus is probably composed largely of cholesterol, while the greenish to brownish color of the other stones suggests these are composed of bile pigments like biliverdin and stercobilin.
