One-Sided Limits - Free Math Video by Brightstorm
A limit is the value that a function approaches as the input of that function approaches a certain value. In Calculus, sometimes functions behave differently depending on what side of the function that they are on. This video explains how a one-sided limit is the behavior on one only one side of the value where the function is undefined. (3:02)

Physics and Astronomy Professor Joe Carson Stargazing Beyond Our Solar System
In 2009, College of Charleston physics and astronomy professor Joe Carson was a leader of a team of researchers from Germany's Max Planck Institute for Astronomy that took an image of what they're calling a "planet-like object" more than 50 light years from Earth. Though scientists have been discovering planets beyond our solar system for more than a decade (about 400 exoplanets have been found), it's incredibly rare to obtain a direct image. Usually, these exoplanets are detected indirectly, su
Motor Exam: Normal Exam: Upper Extremities - Stretch or Deep Tendon Reflexes
A brisk tap to the muscle tendon using a reflex hammer produces a stretch to the muscle that results in a reflex contraction of the muscle. The muscles tested, segmental level, and grading of DTR's is listed below. Levels for DTR's: Biceps – C5-6 Brachioradialis – C5-6 Triceps – C7 Finger Flexors – C8 Grading DTR's: 0 – Absent 1 – Decreased but present 2 – Normal 3 – Brisk and excessive 4 – With clonus The first principle of neurologic diagnosis is regional or anatomical locali
