The simple face mask can deliver higher flow rates than nasal cannula (6–10 liters per minute) for an FiO2 of 30- 60% oxygen. [1] Nasal cannula and simple face masks are described as low flow delivery systems. [2] [3] Unlike the non-rebreather and partial rebreather masks, the simple face mask lacks a reservoir bag.
When the contrast range of an image needs to be adjusted, a contrast mask is a simple solution. The processed image resembles what would be achieved when exposing through a neutral density filter, but the effects are focused highly upon the extreme regions of the image. The blocking areas of the mask coincide with the highlights of the image ...

Alexandrine parakeets are relatively popular pet birds due to their long lifespan in captivity (up to 40 years), [18] playful behaviour and ability to mimic human speech. Alexander the Great is thought to have kept one as a pet. They are one of the most sought-after cage birds in the Indian market.
