Klockstapel är en typ av torn och en särskild konstruktion, i form av en galge eller bock, för upphängning av kyrkklockor. Klockstapeln finns främst i Skandinavien, i norra Tyskland (i till exempel Sydslesvig) och i Nederländerna. Den är en utveckling av den sydeuropeiska kampanilen.

Beskrivning
Då kyrkklockor blev vanliga hängdes de antingen i ett torn på själva kyrkan såsom var vanligt i Frankrike och England eller i en huv över dess galvelröste, eller så som i Italien i ett fristående torn, kampanil.

I Sverige hängdes klockorna först oftast i små klocktorn eller huvar på kyrktaken, men i takt med att tyngre klockor blev vanliga blev också klockstaplarna vanliga. De äldsta klockstaplarna hade en konstruktion som torde ha framvuxit hur nordisk träbyggnadstradition och är besläktad med stavverkskonstruktionen.

Två huvudsakliga grundtyper finns.:

 Klockbocktypen har ett antal, vanligen tre grova hjärtstolpar i rad, förstävade genom sneda bjälkar.
 Klocktornstypen har ett system av resta stolpar, ofta något lutande samman, på en 4- eller 8-kantig plan.

De äldsta klockstaplarna var öppna och stolparna spånklädda men de flesta klockstaplar har i senare tid klätts in med bräder. Huvens form har varierat från enkla eller korsade sadeltak till svängda eller rent barocka former. Spiran bibehölls i reducerad form som ett avslutande krön på huven. Den barocka tornformen blomstrade särskilt i Norrland under 1700-talet.

På 1700-talet blev det åter brukligt att hänga klockorna i kyrkans torn, och i många fall byggdes nya kyrktorn där sådana tidigare saknats. Klockstaplarnas ursprungliga plats var på kyrkogården men lades senare gärna på en höjd i dess grannskap.

Under senare delen av 1900-talet blev det åter vanligt med fristående klockstaplar vid kyrkbyggen. Traditionellt sett har dessa klocktorn vanligen varit uppförda i trä, men i de moderna varianterna förekommer ett bredare urval av material.

Q: eBook Publishing Formats? I am curious as to how to convert Word Documents and or Adobe PDF Documents into various eBook Formats (hence, Kindle, Nook, iPad, Sony Table, etc.). I have learned that some of these formats required knowledge of HTML and JavaScript. I do know HTML and a little bit of JavaScript, but I would like to know where I need to begin to start converting a Microsoft Word Document and or an Adobe PDF File into the various formats listed above.
Is there a website with a step-by-step process in which this is obtained? Is there any information that I and or the StackOverflow Community can benefit from when it comes to this process? Do I need any specific Programs/Software?
The questions may seem long, but I cannot find anything on this matter anywhere. I assume companies do not want the information on how to do this yourself out on the internet?
Thank you so much, any help would be greatly appreciated!
Aaron

A: Like Jamie Taylor said Calibre has code that allows conversion however I don't think you're looking to program a conversion software, so just download and install Calibre and use it to convert to all the ebook formats you need.

Le néologisme artwashing désigne l'utilisation, par une entreprise privée, de la philanthropie et des arts pour améliorer sa réputation. Le artwashing s'apparente à l'écoblanchiment transposé aux domaine des arts et du mécénat artistique. Il s'agirait donc d'un financement philanthropique intéressé, allant à l'encontre même du principe de mécénat. Certains le qualifient de  « mécénat non éthique ».

Dans le cas des musées, l'artwashing consiste à commanditer ou financer une exposition ou une institution culturelle dans le but de redorer l'image publique d'une entreprise. Face à la prise de position grandissante du grand public, à l'influence des réseaux sociaux et aux moyens publics de revendication, certains observateurs avancent que les musées tendront de plus en plus à éviter les partenariats s'apparentant au artwashing.

Concept particulièrement répandu en Grande-Bretagne, le artwashing a fait l'objet d'un ouvrage de l'artiste activiste Mel Evans, Artwash - Big Oil and the Arts, paru en 2015 chez Pluto Press. En janvier 2017, l'organisation environnementale 350.org lance ainsi une pétition en ligne demandant au musée du Louvre de boycotter son mécène Total, groupe pétrolier majeur et grand financeur de l'institution muséale.

Josep Pasqual Tirado (Castellón de la Plana, 1884 - 1937) fue un escritor español.

Tombatossals, su mejor aportación, está considerada como la obra valenciana narrativa más perfeccionada de las primeras cuatro décadas del .

Incorporada a la cultura popular y tradicional, su carácter mitológico la sitúa en un lugar muy especial dentro de la literatura valenciana, ya que intentando justificar míticamente el pueblo de Castellón de la Plana, trasciende de sí misma, cargada de una capacidad simbólica inagotable.

Así pues, las aventuras del gigante Tombatossals en la corte del rey Barbut y en la conquista de las Islas Columbretes se muestran al mismo tiempo como mito, símbolo y señal.

La compositora Matilde Salvador compuso en el año 1943 la ópera La filla del rei Barbut, basada en Tombatossals.

Christmas-minded farmers and rural homeowners have been known to put up a little pen in their front yard, then bring a mule and goat from the barn out back to spend the month of December in the pen with a light-up plastic nativity scene. There may be something wonderfully charming about the zaniness of a mule, a goat, and pint-sized wise men, but if you want to spare your lawn some unnecessary winter damage, no goats for you!
Ever thought of leaving candles in brown lunch bags burning along your sidewalk? Such a nice glow! Ever thought of leaving them unattended for hours on end? Such a nice... fire in your yard! The same goes for electric light strings that are frayed, shorting, or in anything but perfect repair. Lights create lovely Christmas lawn displays, but if you don't live in a region with wet winters, play it safe. A bonfire's not really the outdoor lawn decoration you're looking for.
Santa and his sleigh on your lawn for the month of December won't do any harm. But leave Santa out in the weather for January... February... and in March, April, or May, you may find he's left his mark on your grass. We may want Christmas to last all year, but that means Christmas spirit, not Christmas lawn decor.
Enjoy a season of outdoor lawn decoration, and may your holidays be blunder-free!

When We Shopped By Catalogue
For people like us, living far from towns during the 1930-40's the Mail Order Catalogues played a very important role in our lives. We eagerly awaited their twice yearly appearance. Some firms sent out a special Christmas issue as well, which was to we children, the most exciting one of all. I remember when there were seven Sydney stores using the catalogue system as a means of catering for our needs, supplying everything from blankets, crockery and hardware to clothing and footwear. The Sydney firms were, Marcus Clarkes, Grace Bros., Winns, Hordern Bros. Rueben Brasch, Farmers and David Jones: the latter two being the ultimate in size and production… and usually too expensive for the working man's pocket.
In Victoria the Myer Emporium, as it was known then, was a popular and very efficient Melbourne Mail Order Firm and one of the first to issue Customer Identification Cards which was metal and called a Credit plate.
Wakes, which were situated at the top end of Swanston Street and specialised in women's clothing.
There were shoe catalogues, too. Fosters of Sydney always had photos of the current film stars like Alice Faye, Irene Dunne and Norma Shearer, whilst our favourites, Gloria Jean and Deanna Durbin graced the Teenage style pages. Wittners was also a reputable firm. Recently someone showed me one of it's. old catalogues, dated 1933 in which prices were being 'slashed' by 3/2d. (32 cents). That must have been a bargain when the current price of ladies' shoes then, was 10/9d, ($1,10) and mens'
working boots were 13s 9d, ($1,40,), No nylon stockings in those days but ladies could buy the silk variety for 1/9d. With every five pound ($10.) order, one could receive a free suitcase. What persuasive advertising!
When we children needed shoes, Dad would stand us on the kitchen table in our socks, then placing a piece of paper under our feet, he would with a pencil, outline each foot. It would be sent off to the shoe store but with return postage so expensive them, we would often keep the shoes, wearing them despite blisters, if they were too tight, or with thick socks -if they were too big, til we grew into them. The term, "shoes swallowing your socks" must have been "coined" in the 1930's. Tight shoes
were stuffed with wet paper to 'stretch' them or worn in the wet dew and left on, being leather this often worked.
We children were fascinated with the strips of coloured 'real' wool samples, mostly 2,3, ,and 4 ply (there were no thick wools for bulky knits in those days), which were included in the Autumn/Winter catalogues along with the pinked-edged, postage stamp-Sized "feelers" of woollen, serge and velvet materials. In the spring/summer issue they were replaced by samples of linens, cottons, voiles and crepe de chines. (There were no synthetic fabrics then). Little did we know that in a few year's time, WWII would mean the end of those beautiful cotton materials for a long, long time.
Christmas orders had to be sent away weeks beforehand, in case of delays. Parcels from Sydney would come by rail as far as Nowra then down the coast by bus to Eden, then bus to Genoa and again bus to Mallacoota. Interstate parcel postage was expensive so Mum came up with the bright idea to have our address 'Mallacoota, via Eden, NSW' and mostly it worked!
Sometimes mail was delayed along the way and I remember one Christmas morning when our parents were as disappointed as we were at the small surprises that Santa Claus had
left us. A few days later, by coincidence, after the floods had receded, Dad discovered quite a few more presents in the fireplace that had been apparently been dropped by Father Christmas when he came down the chimney. Our faith in Santa Claus was restored, as no doubt was that of our parents, in the Mail Order System.
There were jewellery catalogues, too. Sydney's Angus & Coote sent them regularly and how we would gloat over the pictures of necklaces, brooches, rings and watches. Enclosed was a page of stiff cardboard with graduated finger-sized holes. To order a ring, one had only to quote the number of the hole that fitted your finger. Many a country romance was sealed with an engagement ring selected in this way, followed later by a wedding ring purchased for the Big Day.
As we girls approached our teen years we juggled with clothing coupons during the war years to buy a pretty dress with colourful embroidery or applique, the vogue at that time and largely featured in Wake's catalogues.
Those Mail Order Catalogues were an integral part of our lives, showing us the latest in household goods and giving us a glimpse of world fashions. They were shop windows in our isolated life!

In bigger cities, there are additionally dental hygiene practices, which you don't want a referral to go to.

Tony Cragg Major Exhibitions In New York Italy Germany and China
4 March 2012 / Art Categories Art News, News / Art Tags Lisson Gallery, Tony Cragg / / / / /
This is a very busy year for the prolific sculptor Tony Cragg who is mounting four international exhibitions back to back this spring. The Marian Goodman Gallery's current exhibition in New York of new sculpture by the Turner Prize winner, which opened on February 1st and continues through Saturday, 10th March, has been a critical success with strong sales reported for the artist. This is followed by a large exhibition at the CAFAM Bejing, China opening on 2 March, the Museo d'Arte Lugano in Italy on 30th March and Barlach Haus Hamburg on June 10th.
The New York exhibition features recent works in bronze, corten steel, wood, cast iron, and stone. Concurrently, and accompanying the gallery presentation, a group of large scale works will be exhibited at The Sculpture Garden at 590 Madison Avenue (entrance at 56th Street). The Sculpture Garden is open to the public daily from 8 am to 10 pm.
Tony Cragg was born in Liverpool, England and has been based in Germany for over three decades. He was the winner of the 1988 Turner Prize, at the Tate Gallery, and of the prestigious Praemium Imperiale Award, Japan in 2007, he is currently Director of Kunstakademie Dusseldorf after having been Professor there since 1988.Tony Cragg is one of the most distinguished contemporary sculptors working today. During the past year, there have been several important solo exhibitions of his work worldwide: Seeing Things at The Nasher Sculpture Center, Dallas; Figure In/ Figure Out at The Louvre, Paris; Museum Küppersmühle für Moderne Kunst, Duisburg, Germany; Tony Cragg in 4 D from Flux to Stability at The International Gallery of Modern Art, Venice; It is, Isn't It at the Church of San Cristoforo, Lucca, Italy; and Tony Cragg: Sculptures and Drawings at The Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, Edinburgh.
Cragg's work developed within the context of diverse influences including early experiences in a scientific laboratory; English landscape and time-based art, a precursor to the presenting of found objects and fragments that characterized early performative work; and Minimalist sculpture, an antecedent to the stack, additive and accumulation works of the mid-seventies. Cragg has widened the boundaries of sculpture with a dynamic and investigative approach to materials, to images, and objects in the physical world, and an early use of found industrial objects and fragments. Cragg's transformative relationship to form, surface, scale, volume, his interest in providing an alternative to the utilitarian realm, and his synthetic approach to object making has brought constant innovation to the language of sculpture. His oeuvre includes diverse genera of works which have resulted in families of objects that are generative in nature and show an evolution of form through time: Spectrum works; Early Forms; Envelopes; Forminfera; Secretions; and Rational Beings, among them.
The current exhibition presents recent innovations and diversifications of this visual morphology. One of the legacies of Early Forms, how one vessel can transform into another and in its alteration reveal its interior space, is brought to life in Cubic Early Form, 2010 and Turning Point, 2011, as is the intricate choreography of interlocked forms and negative/positive space in Lost in Thought, or the complex shapes cut from wood in Chip, 2011. The motif of sequentially mutating silhouettes that have appeared in recent works are present in Hollow Head, 2008, alongside the complex elliptical and axial stacked constructions that began with Rational Beings. Here they extend as if to incorporate speed and rhythmic, elastic motion in Red Figure, 2009 and Runner, 2011; are layered and heaped in Accurate Figure, 2011 and Thumbs Up, 2011; or coalesce into families of striking multiple columnar forms as in Group, 2011 and Versus, 2011.

Orphans of Empire
8 April, 2019 by Mike Paterson
A guest post by LH Member Julian Woodford.
Review: Orphans of Empire by Helen Berry.
The spirit of William Hogarth runs vividly through Orphans of Empire, Professor Helen Berry's latest book, which explores the story of what happened to the orphaned or abandoned children of London's Foundling Hospital. Before reading it, I knew that the hospital was the brainchild of the shipwright, sea captain and philanthropist Thomas Coram. I knew too from Jenny Uglow's excellent biography of Hogarth that the artist had been Coram's friend and an enthusiastic and active patron of the hospital. But I hadn't realised just how firmly the Foundling Hospital story was seated in Hogarthian London until I read Berry's fascinating account, which draws heavily on Hogarth's work for its illustrations and for two of its principal chapter headings.
I am somewhat red-faced to admit that I had never managed to visit the Foundling Museum, tucked in the north-east corner of Bloomsbury's Brunswick Square, next door to Virginia Woolf's former residence and adjacent to the former site of Coram's hospital. So it was a treat to follow Helen Berry's directions, taking the road less travelled by the throngs of British Museum or Covent Garden-bound tourists leaving the Underground at Russell Square and instead heading, via Brunswick Square and its giant plane tree, to Coram's Fields. The Foundling Museum, with its poignant collection of foundling tokens and its impressive recreation of the hospital's Court Room, (not to mention several stunning Hogarth originals, including Thomas Coram's lifesize portrait and 'The March to Finchley') is a humbling yet hugely rewarding experience, but I can state wholeheartedly that its enjoyment is magnified several-fold by the contemporaneous reading of Professor Berry's book.
Berry's account interweaves two themes. She is not the first historian to articulate the broad general history of Thomas Coram and his Foundling Hospital in the context of the eighteenth-century charitable movement among London's governing elite. But she has broken new ground in exploring the rich seam of the Foundling Hospital archive (seventeen double-decker buses-worth of shelving, as Berry points out). This has enabled her to supplement the institutional story with snippets from the remarkable diary of George King, a foundling who went on to experience life as an apprentice in the City of London before running away to sea, fighting at Trafalgar and teaching in South Carolina before ending his days as he had begun them, institutionalised in London as a Naval Pensioner and as clerk to the Greenwich Hospital. As Berry touchingly puts it, the 'single precious thread' of King's diary, punctuated by the 'smaller broken whispers' of other former foundlings, has allowed her to illuminate how Britain's imperial progress shaped the fates of some of the poorest in society.
Orphans of Empire's many highlights include Berry's moving and vivid description of the grief of young mothers as they handed over their new-born babies to the hospital, almost certainly never to see them again. Throughout the book, Berry knits together a most interesting recap of the persistent central role played by the orphan/foundling in myth and literature, from Moses to Romulus and Remus, Fielding's Tom Jones and Dickens' Oliver Twist. Her statistical analysis hammers home the sheer scale of failure of eighteenth-century society and parochial government to provide social support for children. Survivors like George King were lucky: two-thirds of the almost 15,000 children admitted to the hospital between 1756-1760 died while in its care, a mortality rate that sometimes rose to as high as 90%. And I was intrigued to learn that several of the hospital's main benefactors, including Thomas Coram and Hogarth themselves, along with Georg Friedrich Handel, were each themselves childless and that this lack may have been a driving force of their philanthropy.
My only disappointment in this otherwise excellent book is some careless editing. I became confused by the interchangeable use of the terms 'General Reception' and 'General Admission' (compounded by distinct index entries) to describe the failed experiment in 1756-1760 when parliamentary funding led to the hospital becoming a national, rather than just a London-based, concern and which led to an explosion in demand that almost overwhelmed the institution's ability to cope. In a similar vein, the statistical analysis of admission numbers and mortality could have been presented more coherently in a single place instead of being scattered throughout, with some resulting unnoticed editorial duplication (pages 58, 97).
This small gripe is not enough to spoil an enlightening account of one of the peripheral but important byways of Britain's imperial history. Helen Berry's use of detailed archival research to amplify and vivify the tale of a famous London institution is instructive and exemplary. Orphans of Empire is a super book, nicely produced, with good black & white illustrations, clear endnotes and indexing, and I recommend it to all London Historians.

Instead of taking this information blindly, it is advisable that clients contact the referees.
Additionally, clients are mandated with finding out the geographical location of the 3D printing company. As stated earlier on, there are limited companies offering these services. That said it is important to figure out where the offices are based. During this assessment, it is recommended that one look for a company that is close to their destination. It should be stated that there is the need to manage the transport costs. Here, clients can get the information without having to move from their offices.
There is the need to be conversant with the services that are provided by the 3D printing company. It entails understanding the dynamics of 3D printers. Furthermore, there is the information related to the items produced by the 3D printed. This information can only be relayed when the company treasures customer services. Moreover, clients should ensure that the company offers satisfactory customer services.

Joe Manganiello Reveals the Romantic Gesture He'll Never Stop Doing for Wife Sofía Vegara
Nicole Briese
Updated 05/23/19 12:31PM EDT
Axelle/Bauer-Griffin
Joe Manganiello and Sofía Vergara may have tied the knot more than three years ago, but the True Blood alum hasn't let those all-too-important romantic gestures couples tend to make in the early days of courtship fall by the wayside—and he never plans to.
"I hold the door open for my wife, and that will never f**king change," the actor, 42, told Men's Health in a new interview.
Manganiello has good reason for keeping his spouse happy. "My life is great because I really like my wife," he told the publication. "I like talking to her. I like goofing around with her. We f**king laugh all day long, every day. My favorite thing in the world is making my wife laugh so much she cries. It's the best."
He also loves her larger-than-life personality. "I love that she knows how to take care of herself, obviously, because I needed to be with somebody confident," he shared. "It takes a really strong and secure individual to handle the types of projects I've done. But when we're at home, we're opposites in all the best ways and we're compatible in all the best ways. Masculine/feminine, ying and yang, whatever you want to call it."
Manganiello hasn't always been so lucky in the love department: He told Cigar Aficianado in April 2018 that his previous relationships weren't nearly so smooth. "Looking back on the relationships I had before this, I think the universe was giving me some tough practice so I'd get this right."
Now, Manganiello is living his best life with Vergara, doing what all other couples do together, it seems. "We ... watch shows like Game of Thrones, Mindhunter and Naked and Afraid," he told Men's Health. They are also known to sing along together to The Cure while grabbing shaved ice.
Vergara, 46, dished about the role that humor plays in the duo's relationship to Hola! magazine in January 2017. "He is so funny and ever since we met, that has been really important," she said at the time. "We even talk to each other all the time in this little voice that we made up, like a couple of dorks. Whoever heard us, would say, 'What's their problem?'"
Sounds like the best type of problem to have to us!

Georgia has a user submitted radon level of 7.32. This is based on data submitted from visitors on our site. Learn more here.
Georgia has 159 counties and 4 (3%) have been assigned Zone 1 counties by the EPA. Zone 1 counties have the highest potential to have homes test higher than 4 pCi/L. Georgia's state radon zone average is 2.57, which is the average of all county zone ratings the EPA has assigned the state, ranking it 43 among all states.
The radon levels in Georgia are above average in areas of the state. That means there's an increased risk for all homeowners, which is why we recommend testing exposure levels at least twice a year.
Need your home tested for radon? Already know you have high levels and need a radon reduction system installed? Finding qualified Radon professionals can be difficult, but we've put together a list of Georgia contractors to help you save time.
Does Georgia require contractors to be licensed? No.
What are the licensing requirements? There are no state mandated requirements to become a licensed radon contractor in Georgia. Those looking for a radon certification can take qualified third party courses that are offered through the NRPP or AARST.
However both the state of Georgia and the EPA recommend that a home or residence should be tested before a real estate transaction is carried out. Even though Georgia does not require radon testing, we certainly recommend you have a test performed before you purchase a home. If you decide to perform a test after and find elevated levels, there is no reason to panic. Georgia radon mitigation is not expensive compared to the dangers and a system can be implemented in a relatively short period of time.
Georgia is the 24th most expansive state and the eighth most populous. Atlanta, the state's capital is one of the most populous cities in the US. Among the 22,000 people that die each year from radon induced lung cancer, 6,000 of them are from Georgia.
The state has a Radon program, dedicated to educating citizens about the risks associated with the deadly gas. You can find more information on Radon, testing and mitigation at the official Georgia government page.


Nurse as Tobacco, Now Marijuana Icon – We're being duped again.
Tobacco companies used nurses, as well as doctors, to brainwash unsuspecting generations into smoking. Marijuana is using the same playbook. (Click images to enlarge).
Not as demure as days gone buy, and updated to our digital and racier present, the "Nurse Tactic" of Big Tobacco is being used today to dupe us into thinking that smoking weed is okay.
When you keep lifting the lid a little more on the methods and intentions of the marijuana industry, the parallels to the duping of America and the world by the tobacco industry become so blatantly obvious that it would be laughable if it wasn't tragic.
As states, like Kentucky, catch onto the farce that is the medical benefits of smoked marijuana, and build laws for use around just the non-high-inducing cannabidiol part of marijuana, the pot legalization proponents get all upset.
The role of the Doctor in promoting tobacco and marijuana legalization has been thoroughly exploited. And with the doctor, of course, comes the nurse.
The generations before us were so completely taken in by these manipulations that by 1965, around 42% of Americans were addicted to and smoking tobacco.
The downstream health consequences are known to all as tobacco, to this day, remains the single biggest killer of Americans. So why aren't we learning from the past? Well we are beginning to catch on, and the more we learn the more outraged we should be.
As we wake up to the realities of this fraud, we should be aware that two wrongs don't make a right. And three wrongs certainly don't.
We already have two addiction-based industries–tobacco and alcohol. We don't need a third.
And, this absurd justification that marijuana is less dangerous than alcohol has got to stop. Not because it can't be argued that it is or isn't. But because you don't justify one wrong based on another.
We, as an enlightened nation took on Big Tobacco and held them accountable, limited their advertising, and made them pay for some of the damage they do. Not enough by ten times, but some.
We should be putting the same limitations and sanctions on alcohol–in advertising and reparations. But we certainly don't need a third industry to beat back while the realities of what is being unleashed are proved. And Colorado is proving it already.

Udupi, Jan 7: A test-tube baby is a term that refers to a child that is conceived outside the woman's body, in the laboratory. The first successful test-tube baby was born in England in 1978 and since then over 8 million test-tube babies have been born worldwide. The process is referred to as in vitro (outside the body) fertilization. To explain in simple way eggs are removed from the mother's ovary and incubated with sperm from the father in an artificial womb in the laboratory. After fertilization, the 'pre-embryos' are allowed to divide 2-4 times and then returned to the mother's uterus where they can develop normally. This procedure is one of many Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART) that are used when conception has not been otherwise successful due to fertility problems of either the mother or father or both.
Pregnancy is always a matter of chance. For normal fertility, sperm deposited in the vagina must swim up through the cervix, uterus and fallopian tubes to meet an ovulated egg that has been carried from the surface of the ovary to the mid-part of the fallopian tube. The embryo that results (strictly speaking it is still a 'pre-embryo') develops for three days in the fallopian tube, then travels to the uterus, where it floats and develops for another three or four days, before attaching to the lining of the uterus – thus establishing a pregnancy. A few days before the period is missed, a blood pregnancy test will be positive. It is at about this time of implantation, a week after fertilization, that the first few cells in the centre of the 'embryo' actually differentiate into what will be the foetus; all the other cells go to form the afterbirth or placenta.
The general reasons a couple may be relatively infertile (with a reduced monthly chance of conception) or completely infertile (with no chance of conception, sometimes called sterility) are:
Problems with ovulation (the release of the egg from the ovary): There will be complete infertility if periods are absent (amenorrhoea), although many such patients will be treatable with hormones or drugs. If there are no responsive eggs in the ovaries (ovarian failure) the only treatment possible is if someone else donates eggs or embryos.
Problems with sperm production: There will be complete infertility if there are no sperm in the ejaculate (azoospermia), though problems due to blockages (in the sperm passage) are becoming treatable with assisted conception.
A blockage between the vagina and the ovary, preventing fertilization (the commonest site of blockage is the fallopian tubes – sometimes treatable with microsurgery, otherwise with assisted conception).
Endometriosis, a common condition in which tissue like the lining of the uterus (the endometrium) grows outside the uterus, hampering a number of events important to conception and implantation of the embryo in the uterus; treatment can be medical, surgical or with assisted conception; infertility is usually relative rather than complete.
The following tests can be done:
- Hormone levels in the blood
- A sperm count (semen analysis)
- An X-ray of the uterus and fallopian tubes (a hysterosalpingogram) or
- A laparoscopy to look at, and test the openness of, the tunes, and also to look for endometriosis.
These tests may show:
A. Complete infertility (sterility): that is,
(a) Ovarian failure, with no chance of inducing ovulation;
(b) Complete absence of sperm (azoospermia); or
B. Relative infertility: that is, one or more of
(a) infrequent ovulation or absent ovulation resolved partly by treatment;
(b) A decrease in the sperm count;
(c) Partial blockages of the tubes or the presence of scar tissue around the tube or ovary;
(d) Endometriosis of any degree;
(e) An abnormality of the uterus such as fibroids, polyps or scarring of the lining;
(f) An abnormality of the cervix such as a previous cone biopsy or inflammation.
(g) An immune reaction against sperm cells (anti-sperm antibodies) in male or female.
(h) Some of the tubal causes

Not many of these abnormalities can be treated easily. Furthermore, the more of these abnormalities that exist together the harder it is to use effective treatment that does not disrupt other aspects of reproduction.
Sometimes no abnormality is obvious: Unexplained infertility is a form of relative infertility. Some causes of infertility can be overcome with simple drugs or with an operation by an infertility specialist. The aim of this treatment is to return your chance of getting pregnant to a more normal level: time will still be needed for a chance to have its way.
Otherwise assisted conception may be needed. Assisted conception means using reproductive technology to considerably increase the chance of pregnancy in the month it is carried out.
Classification of assisted conception
Intra Uterine Insemination (IUI) is a simple less invasive technique in which the husband or donor sperm is placed in the womb using a catheter. IUI is indicated for the treatment of low sperm count or unexplained infertility. Using appropriate laboratory technique, the sperm can be separated from the seminal fluid and re-suspended in a small volume of the sterile medium which will keep the sperm alive and actively motile.
In vitro fertilization (IVF) was invented to overcome untreatable obstruction or absence (after surgical removal) of the fallopian tubes. But this is done for unexplained infertility or other initial measures fail. To obtain enough eggs for IVF, the ovaries are stimulated with the hormone for two weeks.
The eggs are obtained directly from the ovary, about two hours before intended ovulation, by aspirating follicles through the vagina with the help of ultrasound. The eggs are then fertilized in the lab by adding sperm to the culture dish containing the eggs, Two days later few early embryos are transferred into the uterus through the cervix.
Because of the way that sperms are brought into immediate contact with eggs with IVF, fertilization is usually assured, and developing embryos are transferred to the uterus. The chance of pregnancy is up to about 40% per cycle of treatment, depending on the age of the woman.
In extreme cases of sperm defects, especially when only a few normal sperm can be isolated from the ejaculate (or, if necessary, obtained directly from the testicles), micromanipulation is used to insert the sperm directly into the egg (ICSI = Intra Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection).
Donor sperm and donor egg are advised for the women experiencing failure of their ovarian function and women over age 40 with poor quality eggs, the use of donated eggs from their sister or another female may be the best option to achieve conception. The semen bank located at infertility centres provides donor sperm for use in IUI and IVF when the husband has no sperm or if he has genetic disorders.
Modern doctors are most comfortable when their patients understand their medical problem and understand the limitations of their treatment. Results are never certain, and doctors today should share uncertainties with their patients. This way sensible decisions on medical treatment can be made.
IVF and ICSI etc can increase the chance of getting pregnant about 4-5 fold in the month the treatment is carried out. Whether this will result in pregnancy depends in part on what the chance was without treatment and in part, still, on luck. Every decision should be a personal one, taking account of needs, anxieties, priorities and alternatives. It is a decision to be made with your partner, with your family, and with your doctor.
However, modern technology has revolutionised the management of infertility and has definitely helped many couples to have babies.
