THE SUPERSTOCK INVESTOR PHẦN 9 POTX

Meanwhile, keep in mind that any Eastern Environmental share- holder who accepted $29.87 worth of Waste Management stock in December 1998 and held it until year-end 1999 wound up seeing the value of that investment decline by around 60 percent, which once again illustrates the danger of believing that the acquiring compa- ny in a takeover transaction necessarily knows what it is doing. The purpose of this chapter was to illustrate, in no uncertain terms, that “brilliant” corporate executives often make dumb acquisitions for poorly thought-out reasons, and that they are advised and encour- aged to do so by “brilliant” investment bankers who are just out there taking their best guess like the rest of us, at best—and who, at worst, are motivated in part by the desire to generate investment banking fees, which cannot be generated unless transactions like these take place.

bring on attacks of seasickness. The Augusta Victoria, the steamship on which Nellie Bly crossed the Atlantic Ocean ( Illustration Credit 5.1 ) Bly’s first attack had occurred within minutes of the ship’s setting sail, and her physical discomfort had been made far worse by the fear that she might be sick for the seventy days of her journey to be spent on the water. It was a reasonable enough concern: she had, after all, never been on a long sea voyage and so had not developed her sea legs, the tolerance to a boat’s rocking motion that seemed to build up over time, like a violinist’s callus, inuring one to future discomfort. Moreover, it was widely known that women suffered more than men from seasickness, a misery that, like the pains of labor, could never be adequately communicated to those who had not experienced it. The sufferer was liable to feel at once freezing and feverish, unable to sit up without a sickening nausea; even the softest and most innocuous sounds—a creak of a floorboard, the lapping of the waves—reverberated inside the head as loudly and unnervingly as the yowl of an alleycat. The wretchedness of the condition was perhaps best conveyed by the old saying that those suffering from seasickness believe they will die on the first day, are sure they will on the second, and hope they will on the third. After her first voyage to Europe, Harriet Beecher Stowe had written, “I wonder that people who wanted to break the souls of heroes and martyrs never thought of sending them to sea and keeping them a little seasick.” Worse still, one could not be sure how long an attack would last, nor that any of the proffered remedies would actually lessen its agonies, for even after millennia of human travel on the water, little was known about the malady’s prevention or cure. Those afflicted were variously instructed to lie down and to stand up, to rest and to exercise, to seek out darkness and light. They were advised to drink champagne, port, brandy, rum, or salt water (the latter treatment, it was admitted, “makes the drinker very miserable for a few minutes”); to eat chicken, oysters, celery, marmalade, hot West Indian pickles, or to eat nothing at all. In his Practical Treatise on Sea-Sickness (1880), Dr. George M. Beard suggested chloral hydrate—more popularly known as knockout drops—though he cautioned that it was “not recommended for daily or long-continued use.”

Development of connective tissue fibres in pancreas of prenatal stages of goat (Capra hircus)

The present study was conducted on the 24 goat foeti of either sex ranging from 42 days to full term of gestation. The material was divided into early prenatal (0 to 50 days), mid prenatal (51 to 100 days) and late prenatal (101 to till term) periods. In all goat foetuses the pancreas lied in the abdominal cavity partly on right and partly on left side of median plane. Tissue processing was done with routine histological technique. Up to 59 days gestation the reticular fibers, collagen fibers and elastic fibers were absent in foetal goat pancreas.

BÁO CÁO Y HỌC: " RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN FOOT TYPE AND DYNAMIC REARFOOT FRONTAL PLANE MOTION" DOC

Discussion Correlations of the total FPI score and maximum rearfoot eversion angle for both the pronated and normal foot types demonstrated a significant positive relationship (r = 0.81 and r = 0.76 respectively). Linear regression analysis suggests strong predictive capacity of the FPI for frontal plane motion of the rearfoot (r 2 = 0.85, p < 0.001) with the FPI predicting 85% of the variation in maximum eversion angle. This is in contrast to initial investigations of the relationship between FPI and dynamic foot function which demonstrate a weaker relationship between both dynamic midfoot and ankle joint complex motion and static FPI scores [9,10]. One previous study evaluated ankle joint complex motion and the FPI score in manipu- lated positions [9]. The method of measuring maximum rearfoot eversion in unmodified gait and in a larger sam- ple may explain the increased strength of relationship found in this study. Furthermore, in this study FPI scores were correlated with maximum rearfoot eversion when- ever this occurred during stance phase allowing for an inter-relationship between the midfoot and forefoot to be included. This allowed for delayed or prolonged rearfoot eversion, both recently identified as distinct patterns of rearfoot motion [16] to be included in the statistical tests. Investigation of the relationship between the FPI fron- tal plane score of the rearfoot and maximum eversion angle demonstrated a strong, statistically significant rela- tionship between the two variables for both the pronated foot type group and the normal foot type group. The pronated group demonstrated the stronger correlation with rearfoot motion, most likely due to greater range of pronation providing measureable differences in the indi- vidual planar components of rearfoot pronation. The presence of a positive relationship in a relatively small cohort suggests that further investigations are required, particularly relating to a highly pronated foot type (FPI 10+) which is more likely to demonstrate significant dif- ferences across the three planes of motion making up subtalar pronation. Correct identification of dominant planar components of rearfoot motion may potentially assist with orthotic prescription, specifically in relation to the position of the point of correction and the style of the device, with frontal plane dominance suggesting increased calcaneal motion control is required.

THE DOMESTICATION OF DERRIDA PPT

Significantly, Rorty’s proposal of putting a moratorium on theory is intertwined with the exigency of mobilizing what remains of the pride in being ‘Americans’. Theory is in fact denounced – with an ethic of reading one would expect from Allan Bloom – as one of the major obstacles to the reactivation of American pride. With its abstract and barren explanations of even the most concrete and simple things (‘a current TV show, a media celebrity, a recent scandal’) 68 theory understands politics as the problematization of familiar concepts. These problematizations – these ‘stories about hegemony and power’ – work for the Left as the myth of the ‘blue-eyed devil’ has worked for Black Muslims. As usual, Rorty here does two things at once: on the one hand, he denounces ‘theory’ for it produces a retreat from acti- vism and a disengagement from practice; and on the other hand, he subtly suggests that the labour of theory risks generating the same anti- American ‘separatism’ that one is supposed to find among members of a controversial formation. Interested in the well-being of this commu- nity, Rorty needs to ward off any discourses that could promote a form of community against the grain of the present. ‘We’ Americans need to go about our public business. We Americans should not be displaced by Foucauldian discourses. Therefore, theory cannot be right. If one became convinced that the war in Vietnam or the endless humiliation inflicted on African-Americans were not just mistakes correctable by reforms, but rather, signs of something structurally wrong with the United States, then one would have the responsibility of revolutioniz- ing that very structure. But since a radical intervention in the real is what needs to be avoided in the first place, the United States cannot be an evil empire. Rorty does not say that ‘our country’ is not an evil empire, that the configuration of the American society does not resemble an Orwellian dictatorship. But since such accounts would endanger the present of the United States, their heavy objectivity needs to be bracketed. Rorty accomplishes this task mainly by following two strategies. First, he denigrates the groups, specifically the New Left, who believe there is something profoundly wrong with the West. Sec- ondly, he very subtly falsifies the events denounced by the 1960s’ radical leftism by resorting to all sorts of rhetorical mediation. The New Leftists started to become convinced that the United States was not as pure as described by their parents and their teachers, because they

Simon and Maria decide to begin their search on the Internet, so they head to one of the media center’s computer workstations. There, they discover the work of a Russian artist named Lyubov Popova. Born in 1889, Popova discovered a love of art when she was young. She started taking art lessons when she was 11 years old. She spent the early 1900s traveling throughout Europe painting, studying, and teaching art. Her work incorporates, or uses, plane figures and seems perfect for the class’s art gallery project.

In each type of chain, potential energy is lost at each level. Let’s take the example of a green plant. It gets energy from the sun by photosynthesis, but can use only about 2 or 3 percent of the energy that falls on it. The plant is then eaten by a rabbit, but the rabbit can use only about 10 percent of the potential energy of the plant. The rabbit is then eaten by a fox, which can use about 12 - 15 percent of the energy from the rabbit. And finally, the fox is eaten by a mountain lion. As you can see, at each step the percentage of energy obtained increases, but all in all, a great deal of energy is lost at each step.

THE OXFORD ESSENSIAL GUIDE TO WRITING PHẦN 4 POTX

watch has a double meaning: the two divisions of the crew, who alternated in working the ship, and the periods of the twenty-four-hour day when the groups were on duty.) The crew are divided into two divisions, as equally as may be, called the watches. Of these, the chief mate commands the lar- board, and the second mate the starboard. They divide the time between them, being on and off duty, or as it is called, on deck and below, every other four hours. The three night watches are called the first, the middle, and the morning watch. If, for instance, the chief mate with the larboard watch have the first night watch from eight to twelve, at that hour the starboard watch and the sec- ond mate take the deck, while the larboard watch and the first mate go below until four in the morning, when they come on deck again and remain until eight. As the larboard watch will have been on deck eight hours out of the twelve, while the starboard watch will have been up only four hours, the former have what is called a "forenoon watch below," that is, from eight A.M. till twelve A.M. In a man-of-war, and in some merchantmen, this alternation of watches is kept up throughout the twenty-four hours, which is called having "watch and watch"; but our ship, like most mer- chantmen, had "all hands" from twelve o'clock till dark, except in very bad weather, when we were allowed "watch and watch."

MAPPING THE WORLD

Internal molecular structure has often proved a better guide to bio- logically interesting properties than behavior or external appearance. So when biological inquiry is what is at stake, it often makes sense for folks to defer to biologists. But as we saw in discussing the concepts designated by female and male in chapter one, even biological criteria do not always yield sharp boundaries. The three kinds of criteria -- chromosomal, endocrinal, and anatomical -- sometimes not only fail to coincide, but each can also sometimes fail to determine a perfect two- way sort. There are, for example, some people born with neither the prototypically female XX nor the prototypically male XY chromosomal arrangement. Biologists would reduce the male--female distinction to gamete size -- but we have no immediate access to people’s gametes. It is our social world and not biology that insists on a binary classiﬁcation and on the permanence of that classiﬁcation. Social imperatives, not medical or scientiﬁc ones, lead doctors to recommend procedures to ‘‘normalize’’ the sex of a baby who does not neatly fall in to one or the other category. In some species, the same individual may readily be male at some points of its life, female at others. In humans, however, changing sex is typically accompanied by surgery and hormonal inter- ventions. Except for such still relatively rare cases, children are right when they conclude that being a girl means a future as a woman. 5

THE BEHAVIOR OF STRUCTURES COMPOSED OF COMPOSITE MATERIALS PART 1 DOC

Preface to the First Edition While currently available tests dealing with the subject of high performance composite materials touch upon a spectra of topics such as mechanical metallurgy, physical metallurgy, micromechanics and macromechanics of such systems, it is the specific purpose of this text to examine elements of the mechanics of structural components composed of composite materials. This text is intended for use in training engineers in this new technology and rational thought processes necessary to develop a better understanding of the behavior of such material systems for use as structural components. The concepts are further exploited in terms of the structural format and development to which the book is dedicated. To this end the development progresses systematically by first introducing the notion and concepts of what these new material classes are, the fabrication processes involved and their unique features relative to conventional monolithic materials. Such introductory remarks, while far too short in texts of this type, appear necessary as a precursor for engineers to develop a better understanding for design purposes of both the threshold limits to which the properties of such systems can be pushed a swell as the practical limitations on their manufacture.
