Thanks!1 following 5 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Different countries have different legal drinking ages. Here are the legal drinking ages for UK, France, and Italy. UK- The Legal drinking age is 5. The legal purchase age is 16/18. The legal age to purchase alcohol is 18. Children aged 16 and 17, with the licensee's permission, may consume wine, beer, cider or perry with a meal in a restaurant providing they're with an adult and the adult orders it.

I have read somewhere you have to be 18 to buy alcohol in Milan... (though I read it at Wikipedia)Follow 4 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: In Italy there isn't a legal drinking age; national law only states is illegal to serve alcoholic drinks to minor of 16 in public places (pubs, restaurants, etc); more recently, some local administrations enforced some further rules: in Milan, is also forbidden to sell alcoholic drinks to minor of 16, and minor of 16 can't drink in public places. As far as I know, only province of Bolzano is enforcing an 18 limit for selling: in Milan there was talking about, last year, but the limit is still 16. Wikipedia report is inaccurate (as you can see the link to the news is broken)."

Jun 18, 2012, 3:18 PMI am traveling to Ireland (southern areas) next month with a small group of students/some teachers. The boys in the group just finished up their junior year and are going to be entering their senior year in August so we're talking about 17-18 year olds. On my trips there has never been any kind of drinking allowed and that has been my policy since I began traveling with students (13 years ago). I get the idea that 'drinking' is a big pass-time in Ireland so will these boys be overwhelmed with how easy it is to purchase a beer or two on the sly? How careful are the pub owners on checking ID's and such? When do the pubs close down at night? Don't mean to sound like a prude but allowing kids to drink on a group trip is like opening a can of worms!! The majority of our group is interested in the history of the country and all the magnificent sites...not the alcohol that is available.

"text": "\"The change brings Scotland into line with most of the rest of Europe A new law has come into force which makes the legal drink-drive limit in Scotland lower than elsewhere in the UK. The change reduces the legal alcohol limit from 80mg to 50mg in every 100ml of blood. Campaigners believe the new limit will cut the number of deaths and serious injuries on Scottish roads. The limit elsewhere in the UK will remain at 80mg - the joint highest in Europe. Northern Ireland is currently considering making the same reduction as Scotland. However, the UK government said it had no plans to reduce the drink drive limit in England and Wales as it said this would have no impact on \"\"high risk offenders\"\".

A further 90 were seriously injured and 340 slightly injured as a result of drink-driving related collisions last year. The amount a motorist can drink before being over the limit depends on factors including their gender, age, weight, metabolism, stress levels and whether they have eaten recently, as well as the size and strength of the drink. Experts have said the new 50mg limit, which came into force at midnight, means that an average man would be limited to just under a pint of beer or a large glass of wine, and women to half a pint of beer or a small glass of wine."

Sometimes, minors can drink at restaurants, bars, and pubs if they are accompanied by a parent. The underage drinking laws are put into place for the protection of locals and tourists.

While some European countries have drinking ages of 18 or so, Iceland has a drinking age that’s a little higher at 20. It’s not so weird that it’s so high, but it’s a little much for some of the students there who would rather drink at graduation, or think that they have to wait an unnecessary two years before they can drink. Alcohol has been a part of every culture around the world for time immemorial. Some countries have drinking ages as low as 16, but it’s just for beer and wine. For instance, in Belgium, the legal drinking age is 16. Some countries don’t have legal drinking ages at all. Other countries in the Middle East prohibit alcohol entirely. In Great Britain, there is actually a legal drinking age for people inside the home. The age at which someone is thought to be an adult is usually the age at which someone can legally drink alcohol."

The most varied ages spectrum is seen in the UK, where drinking is legal, even for a kid of 5 years, provided some rules are abided. Any one who is above 18 years of age can purchase alcohol in the UK, and people above 16 years of age can purchase alcohol chocolates. Kids, whose ages are 16-18 with special licenses, can consume wines and spirits at a pub with their main course meals, provided they are accompanied by an adult and the liquor is ordered by the adult. Children from 14-16 years of age can consume beer under adult supervision. Children below 14 years of age are not allowed into pubs, unless they are accompanied by their parents. For a kid above 5 years of age, drinking is legal in one’s home, provided it is supervised by parents. For France as well, anyone under the age of 16 can consume alcohol within the boundaries of their homes under adult supervision. For purchase of beer and wine, you need to be at least 16 years old, and for purchasing harder liquor with more alcohol content, one should be more than 18 years of age. In Italy also, as well as in other parts of the continent, rules are almost similar."

"text": "Thursday, 01 June 2017Underage Drinking Facts In Canada In almost every country, a legal drinking age is imposed to prevent underage drinking. At this age, a person can be allowed to purchase and consume alcohol. Of course, this age varies depending on the country. For instance, a person aged 16 or 17 years old is considered to be of legal drinking age in Europe whereas in India, you have to be 25 years old. Canada’s Legal Drinking Age For most of the country, a person can buy and drink alcohol at the age of 18 years old. In cities like Alberta, Quebec and Manitoba, underage drinking is allowed for 17 year-old teens as long as it is done under the supervision of parents in their residence. On the other hand, in cities like Nova Scotia, British Columbia and Northwest Territories, you can also buy and drink alcohol when you reach the age of 19 years old. In some cases, underage drinking is permitted under parent supervision at home, but it does not allow drinking for the other minors who are guests in the said home. Why allow underage drinking? Some people believe that individuals who were raised to drink responsibly are less likely to develop alcohol drinking and alcohol dependence problems when they reach adulthood."

"text": "\"Social and Cultural Aspects of Drinking The origins of alcoholic beverages Alcoholic beverages have been used by virtually all cultures through most of their recorded history. When practices such as these appear to have a near-universal quality, despite the fact that in some cases they may have some apparently negative consequences, we are obliged to consider their potential for positive, culturally adaptive mechanisms. We take the view, quite uncontroversially, that it is unreasonable to suppose that such practices could have survived in such a dominant, pan-historical and pan-cultural manner if they were wholly maladaptive. Functional approaches While much of the contemporary anthropology of drinking behaviour focuses on the symbolic and culture-specific aspects of alcoholic rituals, we start with a broader ‘functionalist’ perspective – one which seeks to account for the use of alcohol itself, rather than the richly varied sets of customs and traditions which surround it and which, as we will argue later, effectively limit its potentially harmful effects in the majority of cases. In this sense we find ourselves in the company of writers such as Marvin Harris (1982) who tend to see complex cultural mores as developing from very basic, functional requirements. Thus, prohibitions, such as that which Jews apply to the eating of pork, may have as much to do with the lack of ecological conditions for the satisfactory rearing of pigs as with the need to define a culture in terms of its distinct culinary rules. The two modes of analysis are by no means mutually exclusive or even antagonistic. They simply constitute different levels of explanation, each, in our view, having equal validity. The earliest brews The production of an alcoholic beverage requires only the presence of a very simple organic process – that of fermentation, by which sugar is transformed by the action of yeast to produce ethyl alcohol. Sugars, in the form of glucose, fructose, maltose and lactose are obtainable from honey, fruits, sprouting grains and milk, producing in turn, mead, wine, beer and koumish (milchsnapps)."

"text": "\"European Laws Place Emphasis On the Driving, Not the Drinking Unlike in U. S., Age Limits Are Stressed Less Than Road Rules By Keith B. Richburg Washington Post Foreign Service Thursday, December 30, 2004; Page A12PARIS -- The accident bore the familiar details of a drunk-driving tragedy. Six young people, age 16 to 20, had been out late at a club. On the long ride toward home early on a Saturday morning, their small car smashed into a bridge pillar, killing everyone. Witnesses said the driver, 20, appeared drunk as he left the club. The Nov. 20 accident in Sausheim, a town in eastern France, shocked people across the country. But in a society in which the legal drinking age is 16, the resulting public debate focused not on how to keep alcohol from young people, but on how to enforce highway rules more strictly and crack down on errant drivers. News coverage took particular note that the driver had no license or insurance. That response underscored a fundamental difference between U. S. and European approaches to drunk driving among young people: Americans have raised the drinking age to 21; Europeans keep it low but put faith in stiff rules and regulations. While most European countries issue driver's licenses at age 18, the difficulty of passing the test, high insurance costs and wide use of trains and buses all mean that young people generally begin to drive much later than in the United States. \"\" They start drinking at 16, but they cannot drive until they are 18,\"\" said Florence Berteletti Kemp, a communications officer in Brussels for Eurocare, a private group that campaigns to reduce Europeans' alcohol consumption. \"\""

A lcohol consumption by adolescents and young adults varies greatly in different countries and cultures, in different population groups within a country, and over time. Analyses of per capita consumption in different countries provide some information on drinking patterns of young people in various countries. School-based surveys conducted in a variety of European countries and in the United States offer more specific insight into the drinking behavior of this age group. Such surveys have analyzed variables such as age of onset of drinking; lifetime frequency of drinking; drinking to intoxication; frequency, amount, and timing of current drinking; and drinking consequences. These studies have demonstrated that drinking patterns of young people in, for example, Scandinavian, Anglo-Saxon, and Mediterranean countries vary greatly."

Throughout much of Europe, the legal drinking and purchasing age ranges between 16 and 18, and often there isn't even a drinking age at all; it's not uncommon to see children drinking a small glass of alcohol in France or Spain. While it can be tempting to make the most of your newfound freedom, remember to drink responsibly as you travel especially if you're traveling solo as a woman. Don't get very drunk around anyone you don't know and trust, and try to remain in control of yourself. If you're not yet able to drink in the United States and don't have much experience with alcohol yet, keep that in mind when you head to a bar with a group of friends from your hostel. Start slowly and learn more about your tolerance before jumping in at the deep end. You don't want to open yourself up to scams and sexual assault abroad due to a heavy night of drinking.

"text": "\"Written by Maciamo Hay (last updated in February 2018)The Western world (i.e. Europe, the Americas, Australia and New Zealand) could be considered as a single \"\"Western civilisation\"\". ' Westernness' could be defined by people who are ethnically or culturally European, in other words people of European descent or speaking a European language as their mother-tongue. Europe itself has the greatest linguistic and cultural diversity of the Western world. However, the common history, geography and socio-political evolution of the European continent, as well as the cultural divergences that have occured in former colonies, have resulted in the creation of a common basis for European culture that contrast (sometimes sharply) with the USA or the rest of the Western world. Here is a summary of my observations on the differences between Europeans and Americans (USA). These are of course the major trends, and exceptions exist everywhere. Irish and Polish people, for instance, tend to be closer to the American mainstream than to some of their fellow Europeans. Canadians are somewhere in between, sometimes more European, but often closer to their southern neighbours. Feeling of time & distances Our perception is shaped by our environment.

When Napoleon met defeat at Waterloo in 1815, Europe's population was 200 million, with as many as 25 million people of European descent living in the rest of the world. When World War I began in 1914, these numbers stood at 450 million and 150 million, respectively. In 1815 most Europeans and Americans lived in rural villages and worked the land; during the nineteenth century millions migrated from the countryside to cities, and by 1914, in highly industrialized nations such as Great Britain, a majority of the population was urban. In 1815, despite two decades of democratic revolution, most governments were aristocratic and monarchical; in 1914 representative assemblies and universal manhood suffrage were the norm in most of Europe, the United States, and the British dominions of Canada, Australia. and New Zealand. In 1815 most governments limited their activities to defense, the preservation of law and order, and some economic regulation; in 1914 governments in most industrialized states subsidized education, sponsored scientific research, oversaw public health, monitored industry, and provided social welfare care and, as a result, had grown enormously. Europe's global role also changed dramatically. In 1815 it appeared that the Europeans' political power was declining throughout the world. Great Britain no longer ruled its thirteen North American colonies, and Portugal and Spain were losing their colonies in Central and South America."

The businesses may not be too bothered by the fact that most other European countries have set 18 as the minimum drinking age. Belgium, Portugal and Germany do allow 16-year-olds to drink beer and wine but only those over 18 can drink spirits. Denmark allows alcohol to be sold to over 16s but does not permit the consumption of alcohol by under 18s in discos and bars. The Netherlands is expected to change its laws from next year, banning under 18s from buying or drinking alcohol. Raising the age would correct the disparity between Malta and Europe Owners of bars who cater for the younger generations were obviously perturbed by Ms D’Amato’s strong call."

October 16, 2009By Kalina K., East Setauket, NYMore by this author Email me when Kalina K. contributes work Image Credit: Raine E., New York, NYAll over the country, teens are learning how to drive and using this skill in everyday activities. Whether it’s driving to school, work, or running errands, a car always comes in handy to make daily tasks easier for the entire family. When you are still in high school, independence on the road is important. This is one of the many reasons that New York State should consider lowering the driving age. Not only will this grant young Americans to learn the rules of the road earlier, it will teach them responsibility at an early age and they will fully benefit from this alteration in the law. In other states all over America, many teens have the opportunity to get their full license at age 16. In the state of New York, you are only permitted to get your Learners permit at 16. Not only is this an unfair advantage for the teens of New York, it gives New Yorkers less practice, and is unreasonable."

Drivers are normally required to obtain a license from their state of residence and all states recognize each other's licenses for non-residents subject to normal age requirements. A state may also suspend an individual's driving privilege within its borders for traffic violations. Many states share a common system of license classes, with some exceptions, e.g. commercial license classes are standardized by federal regulation at 49 C. F. R. 383.

In 1901, New York became the first state to register automobiles; by 1918 all states required license plates. States were slower to require licenses for drivers. Only 39 states issued them by 1935 and few required a test, despite widespread concern about incompetent drivers. Early motorists were taught to drive by automobile salesmen, family and friends, or organizations like the YMCA. By the 1930s, many high schools offered driver education. ["

Q: Can I drive in another state with my current license? What if the driving age in the other state is lower? Yes, your driver's license is valid in every state. However, if you become a permanent resident of another state, you will have to apply for a new license in that state (often within 30 days of moving to that state). Although your new state might not make you take a new driving test, some states will require you to take a new vision or written examination. So when do you become a permanent resident of another state? The general rule is to ask whether you have an intent to stay in that state. If you do, you need to go get a new license. One good rule of thumb is if you're paying taxes in that state, you should go get a new driver's license."

The medallion number, which is located on the hood, license plate and top of the taxicab as well as on the partition and your receipt, is the four-letter/number combination unique to that cab. It is comprised of a number, followed by a letter, followed by two numbers. If you lost property in a cab or wish to complain about or compliment a driver, the TLC can identify the driver/taxicab from the medallion number. Without this information or the name of the driver and the license number, it is difficult to identify the taxicab without the driver first contacting the TLC or the passenger. It is a good idea to always take a receipt when exiting the taxicab. [ Back to Top]• What is the light located on the back of taxicabs called and what is it used for?

Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). Put another way, the average driver racks up over 1,000 miles each month, or almost the equivalent of two roundtrips from New York City to Los Angeles. But to understand driving habits nationwide, you need to look at who is driving how much and where. FHWA and other federal research data underscore the following trends: Most states are seeing motorists drive more miles: Nearly 70 percent of states recorded an increase in vehicle miles traveled. Oregon is tops for the highest increase (16 percent) over the three-year period from 2011 to 2014. Men drive more miles than women: The average male driver logs 16,550 miles a year – 63 percent more than the average for women, 10,142. Fewer teens are getting licenses: The number of teens with drivers’ licenses has dipped significantly since the 1980s – from 46 percent to 24 percent – for drivers aged 16. Senior drivers are staying on the road longer: Motorists over age 65 are driving more miles and keeping their licenses longer, and drivers over 85 comprise the fastest growing age group -- and the trend is projected to continue. Miles per capita by state show motorists driving more The majority of states, nearly 70 percent, saw an increase in vehicle miles traveled (VMT) per capita from 2011 to 2014, according to FHWA data."

In this article, the American terminology and spelling is used except where the section refers specifically to British practice. The laws relating to the licensing of drivers vary between jurisdictions. In some jurisdictions, a license is issued after the recipient has passed a driving test, while in others, a person acquires a license before beginning to drive. Different categories of license often exist for different types of motor vehicles, particularly large trucks and passenger vehicles. The difficulty of the driving test varies considerably between jurisdictions, as do factors such as age and the required level of practice."

Some companies have more requirements for rental than others. Smaller companies, for instance, may generate less revenue from rentals. They may require more from renters to ensure their rental vehicles are protected when out of their possession. Larger rental agencies may require less in some areas and more in high risk areas, where there are a larger number of accidents and thefts. Consumers must review each agency’s policies to determine their requirements. The Basics for Vehicle Rental In general, consumers should have a valid driver’s license, major credit card and car insurance to rent a vehicle. Car insurance is not always required by the rental agency, but is required by law in most states and is highly recommended."

These differ slightly from company to company, but they all have similar conditions. When you rent a car, you have the option of purchasing different levels of insurance as well, but that may not be adequate for serious accidents or bodily injury. Thus, being properly insured is another requirement. Age Requirements for Rental Car Companies For nearly every major company, the minimum age for renting a car is 25. This, however, is subject to some exceptions if you meet some conditions or agree on a surcharge. The following is a breakdown of the age requirements and exceptions for the major car rental companies. Budget This company has a minimum age of 25, but it will rent to drivers as young as 18 with a $52 per day surcharge in some states. At age 21 that rate drops to $35 per day. For corporate drivers, the minimum age is 21."

"text": "\"Home → Collections → Drivers Senior Travel: Check for rental car age limits in Europe March 24, 2010 | By Ed Perkins on Travel, Senior Travel Before you commit to a driving trip in Europe, make sure all the drivers in your party conform to local requirements. Although those requirements are generally similar to what you find at home, a few -- especially maximum age limits in a some cases -- may surprise you. Young drivers. The minimum age to rent a car (or drive a rented car) is 18 in Austria, Croatia, Germany, Slovakia, Slovenia and Sweden; 19 in Estonia and Norway; 20 in Bulgaria, Finland and Switzerland; 21 in Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, France (but 18 for the buyback lease program), Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Spain, and the United Kingdom; and 23 in Luxembourg. In all cases, at whatever minimum age, drivers must have a valid driver's license issued at least a full year before the rental (two years in Ireland and Sweden). Also, in all cases, rental agencies say that drivers under 25 (under 23 in Ireland) may be required to pay a surcharge -- which can be quite hefty. In addition, Germany requires that drivers age 18 to 22 buy collision damage waiver (CDW) from the rental company, even if they have alternative coverage from a credit card. Seniors. Travelers of any age over the minimum can rent cars in Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, or Switzerland. In several countries, however, some suppliers impose maximum age limits to rentals, generally, or to rentals of some models of cars:-- Denmark: Some rental agencies impose a maximum age of 80.-- Slovenia: Some rental agencies impose a maximum age limit of 73, and renters ages 70 to 73 may face surcharges.-- Czech Republic, Greece, Poland, and Slovakia: Some rental agencies impose a maximum age of 70.-- United Kingdom: Some rental agencies apply an extra fee for travelers age 70 or over; some rental agencies apply a maximum age limit of 69 on some car classes."

Different agencies specify different ages, and even the same agency is likely to have different limits from country to country. The type of vehicle you want to hire might also be a factor. For example, Europcar will only rent vehicles to drivers over 25 in Ireland, while in Denmark the same agency rents economy and compact cars to 23-year-olds. But you must be 26 to rent intermediate or standard vehicles and 28 to rent a convertible. Avis rents most vehicles to drivers over 25 in the United Kingdom.

"text": "Car Rental Age Restrictions, Negligence and the Law While minimum age requirements are an accepted part of rental policy, what do statistics, court cases and the law say regarding renting to drivers that might be ‘too old’? By Joanne M. Tucker, March/April 2012 in Legislative, Rental Operations - Also by this author Print Photo: ©istockphoto.com/dszc More recent cases have reiterated the Drummond v. Walker case. In Cowan v. Jack in 2005, a Louisiana Court of Appeals said that the rental car company had every right to rent to a 20-year-old who had a facially valid license, saying that age cannot be used as the sole basis for establishing his incompetence. And in at least one attempt to take a car rental company to court for renting to an older driver, in a 2006 suit in Tennessee, Enterprise Rent-A-Car was dismissed as a defendant for renting to a 74-year-old after the plaintiff motioned to release Enterprise as a defendant in the case. What’s the Law? Laws governing age restrictions depend on which state you’re in. New York is the only state that directly prevents rental companies through state legislation from “discriminating against drivers 18 and over solely based on age,” and the fine for doing so is “not to exceed $500.” Car rental companies in the state are, however, able to impose a surcharge on younger renters. Michigan also says that rental car companies must rent to drivers 18 and over. This inclusion came after a 2000 lawsuit, in which a state court said in Bickham v. Hertz Rent-A-Car that the rental car company must comply with the state’s Elliott-Larsen Civil Rights Act, which prohibits discrimination based on age, religion, national origin, sex, etc."

"text": "Michigan Fishing Licenses Michigan fishing license credentials are referred to as “all-species” licenses, and they can be obtained by both residents and nonresidents alike. Fishing licenses are available for any individual participating in the sport of fishing, whether it is recreationally or commercially. Within these two main groups of fishing permits, you can obtain licensing that is valid for a 24-hour period, a 72-hour period, a full year or for the duration of your life. Senior residents can get a fishing license at a discounted rate, as can individuals who are legally blind. Certain types of fishing tags are also available, such as the Muskellunge harvest tag and the sturgeon fishing permit and harvest tag. Both are free of charge. However, to get either of these items, you must apply in person. Applicants 17 years of age and older may buy a fishing license through the Michigan Department of Natural Resources. Individuals who do not meet the minimum age requirement are allowed to fish without licensing. Michigan anglers – whether they are required to be licensed or not– are responsible for adhering to all the fishing rules and regulations of the state."

"text": "Pine Lakes Fishing & Camping in Indiana Visitors to Pine Lake and its surrounding lakes, which include Fishtrap Lake, Horseshoe Lake, Stone Lake and Clear Lake, in La Porte County in northwestern Indiana, enjoy fishing and camping throughout the year. The region attracts anglers and outdoor-lovers to its developed county and city parks, forested trails, stocked ponds and trout streams. For an outdoor vacation, you can find a few campgrounds with full facilities close to Pine Lake. Pine Lake and Stone Lake Fishing Fishing on Pine Lake is possible on the shore from Waverly Road Beach, which offers a broad expanse of sand, a marina and boat ramp. Stone Lake is connected to Pine Lake by a narrow channel; crossing it, you reach Soldiers Memorial Park where you can fish as well as swim, play softball and volleyball, and take out your boat. The 556-acre city park has 628 feet of shoreline; access is also available to Crane Lake and Craven Pond. No fees are charged to fish on Pine Lake, Stone Lake, Crane Lake or Craven Pond. Luhr County Park Fishing Located around three miles from Pine Lake, Luhr County Park comprises 74 acres of wetland, upland forest, prairie and stocked pond, where you can fish from the shore or pier. Fishing is free, and you may catch largemouth bass, crappie, channel catfish, bluegill, red-ear sunfish, flathead minnows and shiners. For a break from fishing, take a walk, bike or roller blade on the paved trails, rent a picnic shelter or visit the gift shop and Nature Centre with its hands-on exhibits and displays about the environment."

"text": "Fishing License Structure FAQs When did the new license structure take effect? The new license structure took effect on March 1, 2014. How does the new license structure help fishing in Michigan? The license-buying process for anglers has been simplified, while making substantial investment in natural resources. The new structure provides additional revenue for conservation officers, biologists, habitat improvement projects and resource management - waders in the water and eyes in the field. This license restructuring will allow anglers to enjoy greater access to world-class fishing opportunities, improve fisheries habitat in inland lakes and streams, increase the health and quantity of fish stocked, increase education and outreach to new and existing anglers, and much more. This restructuring allows Fisheries Division to tackle additional opportunities to maintain and improve Michigan's amazing fisheries for current and future generations. Do I need to purchase a base license to buy a fishing license? No, a base license applies only to hunting. What is included in the hunt/fish combo license?"

If so, then the breeder may need to be licensed and follow certain animal care and housing standards. There are many exemptions to the $500 rule though, and the law should read carefully to be sure whether they apply or not. See the USDA page on the Animal Welfare Act for more information.

Southern Paiutes at Moapa wearing traditional Paiute cradleboard and rabbit robe The name Las Vegas was given to the area in 1821 by Rafael Rivera, a member of the Antonio Armijo trading party that was traveling to Los Angeles, and stopped for water there on the Old Spanish Trail from New Mexico. At that time, several parts of the valley contained artesian wells surrounded by extensive green areas; Las Vegas means the meadows in Spanish. The flows from the wells fed the Las Vegas Wash, which runs to the Colorado River. Urbanisation began in 1902, when a railroad linking Los Angeles and Salt Lake City attracted many farmers to the area, and fresh water was piped into the settlement."

( Discuss) Proposed since February 2018. \"\" Gamble\"\" and \"\"Betting\"\" redirect here. For other uses, see Gamble (disambiguation) and Betting (disambiguation). Caravaggio, The Cardsharps, c. 1594Gambling is the wagering of money or something of value (referred to as \"\"the stakes\"\") on an event with an uncertain outcome with the primary intent of winning money or material goods. Gambling thus requires three elements be present: consideration, chance and prize. [ 1] The outcome of the wager is often immediate, such as a single roll of dice, a spin of a roulette wheel, or a horse crossing the finish line, but longer time frames are also common, allowing wagers on the outcome of a future sports contest or even an entire sports season. The term \"\"gaming\"\" [2] in this context typically refers to instances in which the activity has been specifically permitted by law. The two words are not mutually exclusive; i.e., a \"\"gaming\"\" company offers (legal) \"\"gambling\"\" activities to the public [3] and may be regulated by one of many gaming control boards, for example, the Nevada Gaming Control Board. However, this distinction is not universally observed in the English-speaking world."

Nowadays the city is one of the US centers of gambling and nightlife, but as with the rise of online gambling, its role might change soon. If you check the newest casino sites here you can see that the future of casinos might be online so Vegas will face challenges in the coming decades. However let us get back to the history of Las Vegas and start from the very beginning. Prehistoric Southern Nevada was a virtual marsh of abundant water and vegetation. As eons passed, the marsh receded. Rivers disappeared beneath the surface. The once teeming wetlands evolved into a parched, arid landscape that supported only the hardiest of plants and animals. Water trapped underground in the complicated geologic formations of the Las Vegas Valley sporadically surfaced to nourish luxuriant plants, creating an oasis in the desert as the life- giving water flowed to the Colorado River. Construction workers in 1993 discovered the remains of a Columbian mammoth that roamed the area during prehistoric times."

Spread out below lay the 165-square-mile Tahoe-Reno Industrial Center, about the size of Rhode Island. \"\" There's a tsunami coming in,\"\" Gilman said, referring to the businesses, developers and workers he envisions occupying the place some day. The site, already partly occupied by warehouses and distribution facilities for Wal-Mart, Amazon and Federal Express, is where Elon Musk's electric car maker Tesla Motors plans a factory to make batteries, helped by more than $1 billion of incentives provided by Nevada. Out on the horizon, just past the boundaries of the industrial park, can be seen the red-tiled roofs of another of Gilman's properties: the Mustang Ranch, the first licensed brothel in Nevada. For Gilman, this dry, desolate slice of Storey County is where the old Nevada, symbolized by adult entertainment like gambling and prostitution, meets a new Nevada, where high-tech manufacturing and distribution businesses built on an immense scale may restore some of the state's fabled wealth. \"\" In the 1800s, Storey County was the richest place on earth because of the Comstock Lode, gold and silver,\"\" said Gilman, 69, who bought the land for the industrial park with a partner for $20 million in the late 1990s. \"\" Then it became poor. Now, maybe it will be the richest place again. \"\" That's a hope shared by Nevadans ranging from Republican Governor Brian Sandoval to the residents of nearby Reno, which exited the recession with an unemployment rate of 14 percent, well above the national peak of 10 percent during the economic downturn."

"text": "Legal Gambling Age In The USAThe legal gambling age is usually codified into law with a number of different variables. Unlike the legal drinking age, gambling ages can vary by state, type of gambling and whether or not it is actually charitable or for profit gambling. Think of it as if you would have to be 18 to drink beer and 21 to drink liquor, or 18 to smoke cigars and 21 to smoke cigarettes. Some states go as low as 16, while others will not let you reach 21. We are here to try to explore and illuminate the actual requirements. Though we are not attorneys, nor are we able to give legal advice, we will tell you the legal gambling ages by state that we are aware of. Online Gambling vs. Land Based Gambling We covered a great number of different types of gambling in our search for the truth behind the issue. This was a complicated task, considering each state offers its own set of types of gambling. While one state may be able to offer sports betting, be it online or through a land based business, the next may not have the same luxury. By breaking down each state individually, we had hoped to clarify the requests for such information that we had previously received."

Born in Houston, Texas, in 1905, Hughes inherited an estate of nearly a million dollars when his father died in 1923. Hughes’ father also left him the business that had created this fortune, the Hughes Tool Company, which controlled the rights to a new oil drill technology that was in high demand. The young Hughes quickly began to expand his business empire into new fields. In 1926, he moved to Hollywood, where he became involved in the rapidly growing movie industry. He produced several popular films, including Hell’s Angels, Scarface, and The Outlaw. Fascinated with the new technology of airplanes, Hughes also invested heavily in the burgeoning West Coast aviation industry. With some training in engineering from the California Institute of Technology and the Rice Institute of Technology, Hughes designed his own aircraft and then had his Hughes Aircraft Company build it. In 1935, he piloted one of his airplanes to a new world-speed record of 352.46 mph. His reputation as an aircraft designer and builder suffered after an ill-fated WWII government-sponsored project to build an immense plane that Hughes claimed would be able to transport 750 passengers."

Not surprisingly, Maine hasn’t weighed in on the online poker legislation and Internet poker regulation debate.

Here are the ins and outs of spouse and survivor benefits. Spousal Benefits Local Elder Law Attorneys in Redmond, WAWilliam Hickman Hickman Menashe, PS Lynnwood, WAIntroduce Us Julianne Kocer Law Offices of Julianne Kocer PS Seattle, WAIntroduce Us Rajiv Nagaich Johnson & Nagaich, P. S. Federal Way, WAIntroduce Us Spouses are entitled to benefits if they are least 62 years of age or any age and caring for a child who is under 16 years old. The spouse choosing to collect at full retirement age is entitled to an amount equal to one-half of the worker's full retirement benefit, even if the spouse has not worked or does not have enough Social Security credits to qualify for his or her own Social Security benefits. If the spouse files before his or her full retirement age, the amount will be reduced. In addition, the worker must have filed for Social Security retirement benefits and be receiving them in order for the spouse to collect benefits on the worker's record. If you could receive more from Social Security based on your own earnings record than through the spousal benefit, the Social Security Administration will automatically provide you with the larger benefit. If you have reached your full retirement age (and turned 62 before January 2, 2016), you may also elect to receive spousal benefits and delay taking your benefits, allowing your own delayed retirement credits to accrue, and switch to your own benefit at a later date. However, you cannot elect to receive spousal benefits below your retirement age and later switch to your own benefits. Individuals who turn 62 on or after January 2, 2016, will not be able to choose to take spousal benefits at their full retirement age."

The following article from a popular magazine of 1960 offered a sociological survey of the more than one-third of adult American women whose lives did not fit this domestic norm. Based on interviews with single, divorced, and widowed women, and a host of “experts”, the author detailed the “frenzied” mating efforts of women who tried, but failed, to marry as well as the adverse psychological effects of being single. Despite the evidence presented that unmarried women could be happy—sometimes even happier than their married counterparts—the article’s rhetorical emphasis on “frantic hordes of unwed women” relentlessly searching for husbands perpetrated a stereotypical depiction at odds with some of the statistics and testimonies quoted. Women Without Men About 41,500,000 of the adult women in the United States are married. But 21,327,000 others are women without men: women who have never married (11,822,000); widows (8,047,000) and divorcees (1,458,000). This means that a little more than one third of the 62,827,000 women in the United States are getting along without steady male companionship. How do they adjust to this fact of life? How do they like their manless lot?"

"text": "Self-Marriage, or, How to Marry Yourself and Say “I Do”This piece is excerpted from Quirkyalone: A Manifesto for Uncompromising Romantics (Harper Collins, 2004)“To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance. ”—Oscar Wilde FACT: About a fifth of all home sales in 1999 were to unmarried women, up from 10% in 1985. Perhaps a future game show will ask not Who Wants to Marry a Multimillionaire, but Who Wants to Marry Themselves? Contestants will be judged on their positive body image and how truthful and caring they can be to themselves. Self-marriage isn’t exactly a growing trend (no women’s magazines have covered it, as far as I can tell), and it’s definitely not a required behavior for quirkyalones. But marrying oneself is a sign of the times. Flipping on the radio, I happened to tune into voiceover artist Debi Mae West ( 101 Dalmatians, Superman) defending her choice to marry herself to a skeptical Joe Frank on his public radio program; she told him that every time she twirls the ring on her finger, she thinks about her commitment to be good to herself. In the sixth season of Sex in the City, Carrie Bradshaw decides to marry herself, too, registering for gifts at Manolo Blahnik. Living in the Bay Area, I hear about self-marriages about ten percent as often as I hear about two-person ceremonies. Echoes of the choice to marry yourself are reverberating throughout our culture."

Under current legislation, 14-year-olds can legally marry with permission from a judge, with 16-year-olds needing parental permission to wed. Anyone over the age of 18 can marry in Spain. Why advertise with us Spain's parliamentary justice commission has now approved a new law to raise the minimum age to 16 with permission from a judge or parents. The legislation is now expected to be debated in the senate. Children's rights group Unicef in Spain has campaigned for years to raise the minimum marriage age in the country. Gabriel González-Bueno, of Unicef in Spain, said children, especially girls, are more likely to have their lives severely disrupted by marrying at a young age. He told the Guardian: \"\"In general, we see a gender imbalance in these marriages, with the girls more likely to be younger than the boys. \"\" These marriages, particularly in the case of young girls, often lead to an interruption of their studies. \"\" In the first half of 2014, four girls and four boys got married in Spain aged 14, and a further nine girls and eight boys wed at 15."

You need to know the legalities and requirements concerning teen marriage in the locale where you want to get married. Many states' teen marriage laws are making it harder for teens to marry. There are recent studies that indicate that teen marriage is simply not a good idea. Marriage license laws in the United States are reflecting that belief. In the United States, all but one state requires that a couple be 18 in order to marry without parental permission. Nebraska sets the age of majority at 19. Although a few states will waive this requirement if there is a pregnancy, teenage couples may still have to have court approval. A few states allow pregnant teens or teens who have already had a child to get married without parental consent but these couples must have permission from a court. Even with parental approval, many states require court approval when a person is 16 years old or less."

By Amy Kleinhen we were young, the trajectory of life sounded so simple: “First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes baby in a baby carriage” — but modern relationships are much more complicated than that. People date more partners before settling down, cohabitate and procreate without getting married… and, on the whole, marry later in life these days. Currently, the median age in the U.

This is the first time that the symbolic age barrier has been reached. The average age at which women and men get married has been getting consistently later in recent years. The mean year for first marriages for women in 1991 was 25.5 and just 23.1 back in 1981, the year of the last major Royal wedding. Lady Diana Spencer, as she was then, had just turned 20 when she married Prince of Wales. Catherine Middleton, in contrast is 29 years old, suggesting that the forthcoming Royal Wedding is – despite its pomp – more reflective of British social trends than some admit. The average age of men has climbed from 25.4 in 1981, to 32.1 years in 2009. The figures also confirmed the long-running decline in the institution of marriage, with the number of marriages hitting a fresh all-time low, with fewer people being married in 2009 than in any year since figures started to be recorded in 1895.

Karsten Moran for The New York Times ALBANY — For nearly 90 years, an uncelebrated New York S tate law has largely escaped attention, allowing what would seem to be unfathomable in this day and age, and particularly in this state: child marriages, by the thousands. Since 1929, New York has allowed children as young as 14 to marry; 14- and 15-year-olds can do so with judicial and parental approval, and 16- and 17-year-olds can marry with mere parental consent. New York is hardly alone: Most states allow 16- and 17-year-olds to marry, and more than two dozen other states have no statutory minimum age at all. “I don’t think people even knew this,” Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo said recently of New York’s marriage age requirement. “ I think they are going to be shocked when they hear about the status of the law. ”Marriages involving minors occur in New York far more than most would think: Between 2000 and 2010, nearly 3,900 minors were wed in the state, mostly in marriages arranged by parents whose religious or cultural traditions embrace the practice. State lawmakers and Governor Cuomo are now trying to put an end to so-called child marriages, and have introduced similar bills to end marriage altogether for 14-, 15- and 16-year-olds, joining a number of states from New Jersey to Missouri that are working to change similar laws."

In this long, in-depth extensive article on Piaget, you'll get: A Biography of Piaget Piaget's Contributions in a Historical Light: How Piaget Breaks with the Behavorist Tradition More on Piaget's Theories The Jean Piaget Dictionary: Important Terms Introduced by Piaget Piaget's Stages of Cognitive Development Academic Criticism of Piaget's Theories Popular Books by Jean Piaget A Film by Jean Piaget The Biography of Jean Piaget Jean Piaget was born in Neutchatel, Switzerland in 1896. He was the eldest son of Arthur, a professor at the University of Neuchatel, and Rebecca Piaget. Piaget began showing his interest in Natural Sciences at a very young age, publishing a paper on the Albino Sparrow by the age of 10 or 11. By his early 20s he had already published several scientific papers and was becoming recognized in the field of Zoology. Piaget continued his study of Natural Sciences at the University of Neutchatel, receiving his Ph D in Zoology in 1918. After graduating, he spent some time studying Psychoanalysis at the University of Zurich before travelling to Paris in 1920 to work with Theodore Simon , a colleague of Alfred Binet and co-developer of the famous Binet-Simon Intelligence Scale. This scale was designed to measure the intellectual development of young children, focusing mostly on those between the ages of 3 and 12. Piaget's First Important Realization: Children's Thought Pattern Are Different from Adults Jean Piaget was responsible for administering this test to French children, and it was during this time that he began to show an interest in the cognitive and intellectual development of children. From his observations, he recognized that the thought patterns of children are different from those of adults."

"text": "Psych Today The Enduring Influence of Jean Piaget J. Roy Hopkins Tags: Cognitive Psychology Personality/Social Psychology Today The Psychology Today interview with Jean Piaget took place in 1970 at the height of his influence. During that year, the international Jean Piaget Society was formed, and the society, as well as Piaget’s influence, endure. The interview captured many facets of Piaget’s remarkable career: his roots in epistemology and natural history; his interests in the underlying processes of intelligence and reasoning, the development of morality, and the theoretical basis within developmental psychology for educational practices; and his comparisons between his theory and other major theoretical positions of the day. This commentary considers some of these aspects in the context of Piaget’s legacy for contemporary psychology. The interviewer, Elizabeth Hall, began with an ingratiating statement:“You and Sigmund Freud are regarded as the two giants of 20th-century philosophy. ”This statement by itself must be viewed as extreme hyperbole because she puts Piaget’s philosophical role above that of — to name only a few — Ludwig Wittgenstein, John-Paul Sartre, Karl Marx, and William James. However, despite the hyperbole, it is clear that Piaget was an extraordinarily important contributor to the philosophical underpinnings of psychology. Various attempts to identify the most eminent psychologists of the 20th century, such as that of Steven Haggbloom et al. ( 2002), invariably place Piaget in the top tier. In Haggbloom’s empirical scheme, Piaget ranked second in professional journal citations (after Sigmund Freud) and fourth in citations for introductory psychology textbooks (after Sigmund Freud, B. F. Skinner, and Albert Bandura)."

He was the first born to Rebecca Jackson and Arthur Piaget on August 9 th, 1896 in Neuchatel, Switzerland. Jeans father taught medieval literature at the University and his mother was a Calvinist and caregiver to the family. He was known as a child prodigy and developed a passion for the study of nature at an early age. At age 11 while attending Neuchatel Latin high school, he wrote a short paper on an albino sparrow sighting. From that came the launch of his scientific career, which consisted of numerous books and articles. Later in his adolescence he found himself intrigued with mollusks and by the end of his early schooling he was known as a malacologist (Piaget Society 2002). Adult Life After his high school graduation, he attended University of Neuchatel where he received his doctorate in Zoology. After he left the University of Neuchatel, he spent a semester at the University of Zurich where he took a liking to psychoanalysis, and while there he attended Carl Jung’s lectures. He left Switzerland to go study abnormal psychology and logic in France and ended up working there as well."

I was blonde as a child, and well into my 20s, then got mousier and a bit grey. The last few years I have been using a herbal dye to do brunette. But the time as come to relive my youth and be blonde again. I may have been slightly inspired by Jean Harlow in the 1930 film \"\"Hell’s Angels\"\". A young, healthy Jean Harlow Jean’s almost white platinum blonde hair and caused quite a stir in 1930 – nice girls did not colour their hair! Although Jean claimed her hair colour was natural, it was rumoured that she used peroxide, ammonia, bleach and soap flakes to get that ‘bombshell’ look. Peroxide sometimes caused burning to the scalp, which could result in hair loss. Alfred Pagano, hairdresser to the stars, once said abut Jean Harlow, \"\"I used to bleach her hair and make it 'platinum blonde, we used peroxide, ammonia, Clorox, and Lux flakes!

He was born in Neuchatel, Switzerland, on August 9, 1896 and died September 16, 1980 in Geneva, Switzerland. 1As a child Piaget had many interests in animal life, and having learned the value of systemic study, he demonstrated an encyclopedic knowledge of biology and taxonomy. At the age of ten he began volunteering at the Neuchatel Museum of Natural History, where he was mentored by the museum’s director, naturalist Paul Godet, who encouraged his interests and made Piaget his assistant and apprentice. Piaget published his first paper on the albino sparrow at the age of ten and had earned his PH. D. in science from the University of Neuchatel by the age of twenty-two with his doctoral thesis on the classification of mollusks. 2In 1919, Piaget turned his interests to studying psychoanalysis. He was hired by Theodore Simon, co-author of the Binet-Simon intelligence scale, to work on refining Cyril Burt’s reasoning tests. After working two years interviewing children to analyze their verbal reasoning, he discovered his main interests would be in the field of inductive and experimental psychology. 3In 1921, Piaget became the director of research at the Jean-Jaques Rousseau Institute in Geneva, where he furthered his studies in child psychology and the emergence of intelligence."

At this stage it needs the care of the mother and you will notice it remains close to the mother’s body for heat. At this time it is extremely important to keep both the mother and the new-born away from any sort of germs. A warm and safe environment is best.

Many people think between 6 to 8 weeks, but in between those few weeks the kittens immune system and many other body functions start improving or working on their own. Before this age, the kitten didn't have to do anything but lay close to the mother and nurse! The queen (mother cat) even cleaned up after the infant and by six weeks old, weaning has usually only just begun and can last until the kitten is ten weeks old. Kittens that leave their mother this young can become very sick and even die. Not to scare anyone but even though kittens can be VERY CUTE at 6 weeks don't take one home that young!

What you need to look for are developmental milestones more so than weight, or size. Age Descriptions Under one week - Eyes shut, ears flat to head, skin looks pinkish. Part of umbilical cord may still be attached. Weight < 4oz.1 week-10 days - Eyes beginning to open, ears still flat. A kitten this age is smaller than your hand. 4 to 6oz weight.2 weeks - Eyes open bright blue color, kittens will crawl a bit on their tummies, and basically just sleep and nurse."

They stress the fact that too many kittens and puppies are produced every year and that there just are not enough potential owners to go around. The obvious conclusion is that we should breed fewer cats and dogs and produce fewer litters. The best way to ensure that this occurs is through sterilization procedures, so a larger percentage of cats and dogs are incapable of breeding. Performing an ovariohysterectomy (spaying) female animals is the best approach to decreasing the number of kittens and puppies. Being veterinarians, we also know that spaying and castrating pets are important to the average pet owner because of the health and well being of their animals. So, although you may spay your animals in an effort to help control a national problem, in doing so, you increase their chances of living long and healthy lives. Having a litter of kittens may seem like a fun thing to do. Some even believe that it helps their female cat, in some way, to develop more completely or become a better pet. Neither is true."

"text": "\"Does It Matter What Age You Neuter Your Kitten? New research investigates whether age of neutering affects feline behaviour – and looks at punishment and other variables too. Photo: NCAimages / Shutterstock There are so many cats without homes that some shelters neuter kittens early, at 8 – 12 weeks old, so they are neutered prior to adoption. This is the only way they can guarantee that a kitten will be neutered. Normally, cats are neutered at 6 – 8 months old. Kittens, like puppies, have a sensitive period that is an important socialization opportunity; if not properly socialized during this time, they will be more fearful as adults. Therefore some people worry that early neutering could cause behaviour problems because it happens during the socialization window. To find out, Natalie Porters et al (2014) of Ghent University in Belgium studied a sample of 800 shelter kittens. Half of the kittens were assigned to an early neutering group, and half to be spayed/neutered at the traditional age. There were approximately equal numbers of male and female kittens in each group."

"text": "Cat Health Will a Female Kitten Not Spray After Being Spayed?by Naomi Millburn Spraying behaviors typically fade out post-spaying. If you just brought a fluffy female kitten home and are worried about spraying, your concerns are definitely understandable. Though spraying is often thought of as a tomcat habit, it is also very common in females. Thankfully, spaying usually takes care of the messy and pungent issue -- phew. Reproductive Maturity Female kittens do not begin spraying until they have become fully sexually mature, which occurs with the first heat cycle at roughly 6 months old. However, your cat can reach reproductive maturity as early as 4 months and as late as 1 year. Along with spraying, a female cat may exhibit other common signs of estrus, including affectionate behavior, uncharacteristic irritability and frequent vocalization. All of these signs point to one thing -- that your kitten is ready and able to mate and breed. Pediatric Spaying In many cases, early fixing prevents pesky spraying behaviors from ever starting. If your cat gets fixed at a young age before ever going into heat, her chances of ever spraying become less and less."

Which kittens need to be hand reared? Normally kittens have their environmental and nutritional requirements met by their mother. However, a number of different situations may lead to kittens requiring extra care, eg, death of the mother, rejection of the kittens by the mother, ill health of the mother, or the production of too large a litter for the mother cat to care for. When the mother cat is only temporarily ill, the kittens may only need to be hand fed for a few days, while in other situations the kittens may need to be fed by hand until they are weaned. In the case of a very large litter, where the kittens are gaining some milk from their mother, they will only need supplemental feeding. Should any kittens not be hand reared? In some circumstances the person who is responsible for the kittens may be faced with difficult decisions regarding the kittens. There are some cases where it is best for the kitten not to try and keep it alive because of serious problems and it needs to be euthanased to prevent further suffering."

In fact, milk does not meet any of the nutritional needs of a cat. So, should cats drink milk? Many veterinarians would say “no\"\". While old movies often show cats contentedly feeding on a bowl of milk or cream, the fact is that a cat could not survive if her diet consisted of only milk. Not only does milk fail to meet any of the nutritional needs of a cat, it can even cause health problems for some cats. The reason for this is that most cats are lactose intolerant. Cats lack the enzyme, called lactase, that allows them to properly break down milk. For such cats, drinking milk can lead to digestive problems including diarrhea."

"text": "How Old Should Kittens Be Before They Leave Their Mother? Share Tweet +1 Pin it There is considerable debate over what age it is considered to be appropriate to separate a kitten from their mother, and allow them to go on to their new homes where they will live for the remainder of their lives. In the wild, kittens will usually stay with their mother until the mother becomes pregnant again, when she will naturally begin to push them away in preparation for raising her new litter. If the queen does not have any further litters, or lives as part of a colony of cats, the kittens will begin to gradually draw away as they reach sexual maturity, and set out in search of mates of their own. However, all of these processes can take several months to a year, and of course, when we deliberately breed kittens in a domestic situation, they will be separated from the queen well before this in order to allow them to go off to their new owners. But at what age should this happen, and why? Read on to learn more. Nutrition and basic needs When the kittens are newborn and unable to fend for themselves, they rely upon their mother to fulfil all of their needs. Obviously this includes feeding, as the young kittens need to suckle in order to gain nutrition before they are old enough to eat solid foods, but there is much more to it as well!The queen will keep her kittens safe and warm, protect them from predators, lick them and clean them, and lick their eyes to encourage them to open when the time is right. They also need assistance from the mother to defecate and urinate, as this requires manual stimulation until the kittens are a little older, so in reality of course, kittens are totally helpless at this stage and need to remain with their mother in the very first stages of their development."

Many people dream of sharing their lives with an exotic cat but most find that this is not a practical option. Specialized dietary requirements, challenges brought on by less than perfect litter box habits, space constraints and federal, state and local laws prohibiting exotic ownership make acquiring an exotic cat difficult, if not an impossible challenge for most people. The Savannah cat, bred to strongly resemble an African Serval, is not only very exotic in appearance, but the largest domestic cat in existence today. Much smaller than its African Serval ancestor, the Savannah demonstrates a milder, more predictable temperament, and does not require the specialized care of an exotic cat, which makes it a very appropriate and exciting alternative to those longing for pure exotic ownership. What's the difference between a Savannah and a Serval? An African Serval is a 30-50 pound exotic cat, regulated in the United States as a wild animal. The Savannah is a hybrid of the African Serval and grows to approximately 15-20 pounds at maturity. While strongly resembling the African Serval, Savannahs are bred to demonstrate domestic temperament and are classified as domestic cats by both the USDA and The International Cat Association ( TICA ).

"text": "Helping your new cat or kitten settle in▸ For settling in an adult cat see below Helping kittens to settle in Experiencing a brand new home is daunting for a tiny kitten. Every kitten has a unique personality; some are shy while others are confident. Whatever their character, this is potentially a traumatic transition for kittens as they are leaving their mothers and siblings for the first time. With this in mind it’s best to choose a room where it can be kept for the first few weeks to adjust gradually to its new surroundings. This confinement also aids toilet training and avoids the risk of ‘accidents’ elsewhere in the house. Careful selection of the appropriate room should take the following into consideration: Avoid a room with full-length curtains initially as a kitten will run up them and perch at the top. Check the room for potential hazards such as fireplaces or poisonous plants and make it as safe as possible. Remember that kittens can get into very small spaces. Make sure any hazardous substances are out of harm’s way and cupboards where they are kept are not accessible by curious kittens. Cats and poisons Remove all breakable objects from shelves and windowsills and secure all cupboard doors."

"text": "\"Pretty soon that little baby could have babies of her own. Kitties mature young, typically between 4 and 6 months old. As hard as it may be to believe, your 4-month-old little kitten can become pregnant if she has reached puberty by this age. Prevent your furbaby from having unwanted kittens by spaying her early in life. Sexual Maturity The only way a kitten can become pregnant is if she has gone into estrus, commonly referred to as heat. Your kitty will usually only go into heat during the spring and summer months, although warm, tropical climates can trigger estrus in your kitty all year long, according to the VCA Animal Hospitals website. A mature kitty will begin to yowl loudly and may constantly rub up against you and the furniture in your home. She'll start making attempts to escape your home so she can find a mate outside. You'll also find that she will mark the inside of your home with her urine. She does this to advertise her heat status to available male kitties in the area."

"text": "\"How to Establish Guardianship of a Child FAQs How do you establish guardianship of a child? You can establish guardianship of a child by filing papers in court. Initially, file a petition stating your interest in obtaining guardianship along with a filing fee. You'll also want to file a letter of consent from the child's parents. Once you've filed your petition, the court will set up interviews with you and possibly the child, the child's parents (if they are available), and anyone else who may have an interest. In some cases, the court may order a home visit or inspection, and a criminal background check of the would-be guardian is usually conducted. In all matters involving children, courts use a \"\" best interest of the child \"\" standard to make decisions. So, if after reviewing the facts presented, the court finds it is in the best interest of the child, the court will grant you legal guardianship of the child. Most states require you to sign an oath stating that you accept the responsibilities of the guardianship. Once the judge has approved your guardianship petition, she or he will give you an order to establish guardianship."

"text": "\"A guardian and custodian become necessary in the event a child's parents pass away, leaving assets and an inheritance behind. Minor children cannot inherit money or assets outright, so a custodian is named or appointed to manage the assets until the child reaches an appropriate age. A guardian, in contrast, is responsible for overseeing the child's day-to-day physical and financial well-being. These positions may be named in a parent's will or appointed by the court. Guardian The guardian of a minor child fulfills the role of a substitute parent. The guardian maintains physical and legal custody of the child, helps the child with daily tasks and makes financial and medical decisions on the child's behalf. When choosing a guardian, make certain the person you choose is comfortable with the appointment. In most jurisdictions, the court must approve the choice of guardian in the event both parents die or are unable to care for the child. If both parents die and did not leave a will or appoint a guardian, the court will appoint one for the children. If one parent dies naming someone other than the surviving parent as guardian, the court can override the appointment if it is in the child's best interests."

Many may even occasionally dream of what it would be like to live on their own, or at least with the \"\"cool family\"\" down the street. For most teenagers, these are just fantasies, but for others, the desire and need to leave is very real. When Can Teens Leave Home Legally? Teens may legally leave home when they reach the age of majority. The age of majority in most states is 18 years old, except for the following: In Alabama and Nebraska, the age of majority is 19. In Mississippi, the age of majority is 21. If a teen chooses to move out of his parents' house when he reaches the age of majority, he will be legally responsible for his support and maintenance. If a teen is still attending high school when he reaches the age of majority and continues to live with his parents, they are obligated to continue to support him until he completes high school. Runaways The National Runaway Switchboard reports that 30 percent of teens run away, and they do so for a variety of reasons including: Family dynamics A desire for more freedom Child abuse or neglect Alcohol and drug use (either by themselves or their parents)Sexual orientation The Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention defines a runaway as a child who meets one of the following criteria: Leaves home without his parent or guardian's permission and stays away overnight Is 14 years of age or younger, away from home with his parent or guardian's permission, but chooses not to return and stays away one night Is 15 years of age or older, away from home with his parent or guardian's permission, but chooses not to return and stays away two nights."

"text": "\"Guardianship A guardian is a surrogate decision-maker appointed by the court to make either personal and/or financial decisions for a minor or for an adult with mental or physical disabilities. After adjudication, the subject of the guardianship is termed a \"\"ward. \"\" Florida law requires the court to appoint a guardian for minors in circumstances where the parents die or become incapacitated, or if a child receives an inheritance or proceeds of a lawsuit or insurance policy exceeding the amount allowed by statute. Adult guardianship is the process by which the court finds an individual's ability to make decisions so impaired that the court gives the right to make decisions to another person. Guardianship is only warranted when no less restrictive alternative—such as durable power of attorney, trust, health care surrogate or proxy, or other form of pre-need directive—is found by the court to be appropriate and available. Florida law allows both voluntary and involuntary guardianships. A voluntary guardianship may be established for an adult who, though mentally competent, is incapable of managing his or her own estate and who voluntarily petitions for the appointment. Legislative intent establishes that the least restrictive form of guardianship is desirable Accordingly, Florida law provides for limited as well as plenary adult guardianship. A limited guardianship is appropriate if the court finds the ward lacks the capacity to do some, but not all, of the tasks necessary to care for his or her person or property; and if the individual does not have pre-planned, written instructions for all aspects of his or her life. A plenary guardian is a person appointed by the court to exercise all delegable legal rights and powers of the adult ward after the court makes a finding of incapacity."

Statutes typically define an \"\"incapacitated person\"\" as someone who, because of a physical or mental condition, is substantially unable to provide food, clothing, or shelter for himself or herself, to care for his or her own physical health or to manage his or her own financial affairs. The courts will often require expert testimony and reports as to the individual's physical or mental state before rendering a judgment, if a person is going to seek guardianship of another individual (which makes sense -you couldn't simply walk into court, claim I was mentally incapacitated, and expect to take control over my affairs without expert evidence).

A person with disabilities may require a guardian for his or her entire life. In other situations, a person may require a guardian as that person ages and develops dementia or another condition which renders him unable to make his own decisions and communicate his desires. When someone needs a guardian, a court hearing must first be held to determine if that person actually does need to have someone else making decisions for him. The court will also decide who to appoint as a guardian. The process can be complicated and time consuming, but it is essential. If your loved one has become ill or injured and cannot make decisions for himself, you will need to consider guardianship proceedings. A Sharonville guardianship lawyer at Zimmer Law Firm can help. We can also provide assistance to people who want to create an incapacity plan in advance so their loved ones will not need to petition the court for guardianship in the event an illness or an injury results in an inability to make or communicate decisions.

The laws governing guardianships vary between states, but in most jurisdictions, you need a file a petition with the court to obtain legal guardianship of your minor grandchild. Although it is possible to obtain legal guardianship without an attorney, in many cases, it is advisable for grandparents to retain counsel. Planned Guardianships Some parents choose to name a guardian for their children in the event that they pass away or become permanently disabled. If your grandchild's parents named you in writing as a guardian and they died or became incapacitated, you may be able to obtain legal guardianship without hiring an attorney. Even so, if the court questions your ability to care for your grandchild because of your age, heath or financial circumstances, hiring an attorney is still advisable.

"text": "The Right to Personal Autonomy The right to personal autonomy has been recognized in law as a basic right of every human being. It encompasses the positive rights of an individual to develop their personality freely, to express their aspirations, and to make autonomous choices, as well as the negative right not to be subjected to arbitrary restrictions. The right to autonomy of many people with disabilities is often injured when a guardian is appointed to oversee their affairs. The appointment of a guardian significantly limits the individual’s ability to make independent decisions and lead an autonomous life. Accordingly, the right to personal autonomy means that each individual has the right not to have a guardian appointed unless and until all other, more moderate options have been exhausted. Moreover, a “ward” (that is, a person for whom a guardian has been appointed) is still entitled to maintain their personal autonomy and to be involved in decisions relating to them. They have the right to oppose the guardian’s decisions, and even the right to submit a request to the court to nullify the guardianship. In Israel, the family courts have appointed guardians over the person and/or property of tens of thousands of people. Of all the rights people with disabilities struggle to enjoy, the right to personal autonomy is the most basic right – and it is also the right that is currently most often violated in Israel. A person for whom a “property guardian” has been appointed is deprived of most of their economic rights."

Some families may want to consider guardianship as an option for their family member. A guardian is defined as “ a person or agency appointed by a court to act on behalf of an individual ”. Establishing guardianship is a legal process, and many families turn to the Bureau of Guardianship Services at the Department of Human Services for help with the process. Guardianship, however, can be established without the Bureau’s involvement.

Learn More Notification and Term of Service The successor guardian must be notified of the appointment and, in some states, must also consent to the appointment in writing. In most cases, the notice of designation must be provided to the child or incapacitated adult as well as the immediate family and any health or care facility in which the person resides. State law may limit the amount of time a successor guardian can serve in this capacity."

"text": "\"What does a legal guardian do?21 Comments Follow Comments By Carolyn Rosenblatt Q: What are the duties of a legal guardian for elderly parents? A: The term \"\"legal guardian\"\" has different meanings in different states. I'll take it to mean that your question applies to the duties of a person who was appointed guardian over an incompetent elder by a court. A guardianship is also called a conservatorship in some places. The guardianship can cover either the person's money, or the person's safety and welfare, or both. You May Also Like Free Aging Care Guides The duties of a guardian, generally speaking, are to oversee the welfare and safety the person under guardianship, and to attend to the financial needs of the individual, using his or her assets wisely. A guardian has a legal duty, called a \"\"fiduciary duty\"\", to act in the best interests of the individual. A guardian has total control over the person they are appointed to serve. They can decide how to spend the elder's money, where the elder will live, what medical care the elder will receive, and how much freedom the elder has in his or her life. The powers can be total."

"text": "\"A legal guardian is a person who is given authority over and legal responsibility for another person or her property by a court. A court may appoint a guardian for a minor or an adult who's incapacitated and can't make her own decisions or take care of herself. Reasons for a guardianship vary by situation. For example, an incompetent adult who can't manage her medical care needs a guardian for safety reasons. A legal guardian's authority ends as soon as the person for whom he's responsible, known as the ward, dies. But there are other reasons a guardianship may end, such as court-ordered termination and the guardian's own resignation. Guardian of Person or Property Guardian laws vary by state. Some states use the Uniform Guardianship and Protective Proceedings Act, which gives a guardian responsibility for a ward's care, but a conservator is responsible for the ward's property management. Other states allow guardians for both persons and property. A guardian of a person is responsible for the ward's overall mental and physical health."

"text": "\"Buy Photo (Photo: SHAWN DOWD/@sdowdphoto/ / STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER)CONNECT TWEET LINKEDIN COMMENT EMAIL MOREEvery August, millions of sports fans tune in to watch the Little League Baseball World Series, broadcast from South Williamsport, Pa., featuring two finalists in a tournament that starts in June with local all-stars competing in district tournaments all over the world. While other age groups also participate in annual Little League tournaments that lead to their own \"\"World Series\"\" at other sites, the iconic event in South Williamsport focuses on the \"\"major\"\" division, usually defined as the bracket for 11- and 12-year-old players. But many viewers get confused when they see 13-year-olds on the field. That happens because players get assigned to a division based on their age on April 30 and some of them turn 13 during the baseball season. \"\" It's always been confusing for people when they watch the Little League World Series,\"\" said Greece Little League board member Diane Noga. \"\" They're always confused by the age when people announce how old they are,\"\" Noga said. But in a few years, that will change because Little League Baseball is switching the age eligibility date from April 30 to Dec. 31. \"\" It's actually something that a lot of people feel is long overdue,\"\" said Nancy Goldsmith Zawacki, president of Pittsford Little League. Nancy Goldsmith Zawacki, president of Pittsford Little League (Photo: Walter Colley / Provided)Ken Liesegang, administrator for Little League District 4, which includes Monroe County, and parts of Orleans, Wayne, Livingston and Ontario counties, also supports the change. \"\" It's also going to make the tournament a younger tournament in that we're not going to be seeing 13-year-old players in the World Series or other tournaments going forward once it reaches full implementation,\"\" he said."

He was 71.‘Little Rascals’ Actor Gordon Lee Dies (AP)Gordon Lee, the chubby child actor who played Spanky Mc Farland’s little brother Porky in the “Little Rascals” comedies, has died. He was 71. Lee died Sunday in a Minneapolis nursing home after battling lung and brain cancer, said Janice Mc Clain, his partner of 13 years. Lee played one of the younger members in the “Our Gang” shorts in the 1930s, appearing in more than 40 of them from 1935 to 1939. The comedies, produced by Hal Roach, became known as “The Little Rascals” when shown on TV in the 1950s. Among the films Lee appeared in were “Bored of Education,” which won the Oscar for best one-reel short subject in 1937; “Our Gang Follies of 1936”; “The Awful Tooth”; and “Roamin’ Holiday. ”In a 1998 interview with the Star Tribune of Minneapolis, the Texas-born Lee said he was 2 years old when his mother sent his picture to studio executives who were seeking an actor to play Mc Farland’s brother. “ We were on the next train to L. A. and I had a contract within a few days,” Lee said. “ Fat kid got lucky.” “"

"text": "Little League Baseball® to Begin Utilization of August 31 Age Determination Date for the 2018 Season; Children Born Between May 1 and August 31, 2005 to be Grandfathered as 12-Year-Olds For 2018 Season Over the past couple of years, there has been a lot of discussion about the Little League Baseball® Age Determination Date. This is an important topic to everyone involved in Little League, and Little League has sought input from volunteers, parents, and coaches that has helped guide District Administrators and the Little League International Board of Directors to ultimately change the Age Determination Date for all divisions of Little League Baseball and the Little League Challenger Division® to August 31. Update: At the fall 2015 meeting of the Little League International Board of Directors, it was approved to grandfather the four months of children born between May 1 and August 31, 2005, for the 2018 season, so that no child will lose their 12-year-old season of Little League Baseball. Why the change? In 2011, Little League conducted very detailed participation research. As a result of that research, we learned that parents, players, and volunteers wanted to see Little League become, as a whole, a younger program, and give children an easier way to play Little League with their classmates. Since the research concluded, Little League revamped its Tee Ball program, established a Coach Pitch Program, and changed its residency requirements to allow children to play in the league where their school is located. Adjusting the Age Determination Date will help us achieve the goal of making Little League younger. And, making the date August 31, the same that many schools in many states use for student registration, allows Little Leaguers to play with their classmates. This change will make the Little League Baseball Division, also known as the Major Division, truly a 12 and under program – ensuring that no child playing in the Little League/Major Division will turn 13 years old at any point during their final season in that division."

"text": "\"Little League's change in age requirement takes effect in 2018Sep 10, 2015Associated Press Facebook Twitter Facebook Messenger Pinterest Emailprintcomment Little League is getting younger. The organization announced Thursday it is changing its age requirement, phasing 13-year-olds out of the division that plays in the annual Little League World Series in South Williamsport, Pennsylvania. They are doing that by changing the league's \"\"age determination date\"\" to Aug. 31. That will prevent anyone who turns 13 during the baseball season from playing in the major division of Little League baseball. Little League says the age move will bring its registration in line with most school districts, allowing more kids to play with their classmates. Joe Amon for ESPNThe change, which affects all divisions from tee-ball up, fully takes effect beginning in 2018. The current birthdate cutoff of April 30 will remain in effect in 2016 and 2017 for players born on or before Aug. 31, 2005. Little League District Administrators had voted in 2014 to move the age cutoff date to Dec. 31. But Stephen D. Keener, the league's president and CEO, said they moved it again after getting feedback from parents, coaches and others. The administrators felt the Aug. 31 date would be more appropriate in meeting \"\"the goal of making the Little League Baseball Division truly a 12 and under program, while also mitigating the impact to those currently participating in the Little League program,\"\" Keener said."

"text": "Even young kittens can be spayed. While you can have your kitty spayed at any age, the best time to do so is before she goes into heat for the first time. This will prevent not only any unwanted litters but also some possible health issues for your little girl later in life. Reaching Maturity Typically, your furry companion will become mature when she reaches 5 to 8 months old, according to the Feline Advisory Bureau. At this point, your kitten can have kittens of her own, leading to a number of unwanted little babies for you to deal with. Once she goes into her first estrus or heat cycle, she'll remain in heat for 21 to 30 days, according to the University of California Davis School of Veterinary Medicine. During this time, she won't be able to have a spay surgery because of the medical risks involved, and you'll have to wait until she's out of estrus. When to Spay To prevent your little one from going into heat, ideally she should be spayed prior to or right around 5 months of age. The youngest a kitty should be before she's spayed is 8 weeks old. Little ones this young need to be at least 2.2 pounds before surgery, recommends the Ohio Alleycat Resource."

"text": "\"That cuddly kitten can have kittens of her own at puberty. When little kitties reach puberty -- as early as 4 to 6 months of age -- they'll be able to reproduce, and they'll possibly begin some unpleasant behaviors, too. To avoid either issue, you can have your little one neutered or spayed as early as 6 to 8 weeks old. Maturity Once a kitten reaches sexual maturity, usually between 4 and 6 months of age, he is able to produce offspring. This means that your little girl kitten could be giving birth to little kittens well before she's 1 year old. Your kitten's behavior will also change once he or she hits puberty: Male kitties begin to spray smelly urine to mark their territory, and females yowl when in heat. Both males and females have a strong desire to mate and will try any method of escape they can to get outside and find a prospective partner. While it's never too late to fix a cat, you'll circumvent mating behaviors by having your little guy surgically altered before he reaches 6 months old. Same goes if your little guy's a girl. Early Spay or Neuter While you can have a kitten fixed as young as 6 weeks old, the procedure is usually performed when your little one reaches 8 to 12 weeks of age."

"text": "Published: May 2013Longevity On Beyond 100Our genes harbor many secrets to a long and healthy life. And now scientists are beginning to uncover them. By Stephen S. Hall Photograph by Fritz Hoffmann On a crisp January morning, with snow topping the distant Aspromonte mountains and oranges ripening on the nearby trees, Giuseppe Passarino guided his silver minivan up a curving mountain road into the hinterlands of Calabria, mainland Italy’s southernmost region. As the road climbed through fruit and olive groves, Passarino, a geneticist at the University of Calabria, chatted with his colleague Maurizio Berardelli, a geriatrician. They were headed for the small village of Molochio, which had the distinction of numbering four centenarians—and four 99-year-olds—among its 2,000 inhabitants. Soon after, they found Salvatore Caruso warming his 106-year-old bones in front of a roaring fire in his home on the outskirts of the town. Known in local dialect as “U’ Raggiuneri,” the Accountant, Caruso was calmly reading an article about the end of the world in an Italian version of a supermarket tabloid. A framed copy of his birth record, dated November 2, 1905, stood on the fireplace mantle. Caruso told the researchers he was in good health, and his memory seemed prodigiously intact. He recalled the death of his father in 1913, when Salvatore was a schoolboy; how his mother and brother had nearly died during the great influenza pandemic of 1918-19; how he’d been dismissed from his army unit in 1925 after accidentally falling and breaking his leg in two places."

"text": "\"Video games and age restrictions–the US and UKThis guide was last updated in April 2008. E-commerce TMT & Sourcing TMT UKThe issue of a possible link between violence in computer games and the rising trend of antisocial behaviour in society is an ongoing debate. In 2005 the gaming industry witnessed an enormous amount of pressure from critics over titles such as Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. The emergence of a patch for San Andreas that unlocked a hidden sex mini-game gave critics like Hilary Clinton the weapon they needed to show how inappropriate some games can be for minors, albeit without the patch the hidden games were inaccessible. The game was given an AO (Adult Only) rating and dropped from retailers around the U. S. In the same year, the State of Illinois voted to introduce legislation to ban the sale of violent or sexually explicit video games to children in Illinois, a move other states and cities have tried but federal courts have repeatedly struck down. The move was in direct response to the video game \"\"JFK Reloaded\"\" which puts the player in the role of President Kennedy's assassin. Commenting on the legislation, Democratic Governor Rod Blagojevich stated that \"\"in today's world, parents face unprecedented challenges in monitoring and protecting their children from harmful influences. This bill will make their job easier\"\". Under the legislation, retailers who knowingly sold adult video games to minors could be fined $1,000. They could defend themselves by showing they did not know the buyer was a minor or that they followed the industry ratings on the games."

Three complete games are included: Sicily-Invade and capture Italy's southern island fortress, Normandy Breakout-Direct the critical campaign on the sweep to Berlin, and Battle of the Bulge-The daring breakthrough to Bastogne. A two-sided (19\"\" x 26\"\") game board is provided. The game maps are historically accurate, as well as the initial troop deployments. Troop movement per turn is dictated by 24 troop movement cards. Allied and German units are 112 die cut cardboard pieces. Battles are resolved using 5 red and 5 white battle dice. The game plays very well for a wargame of its age. The troop movement card deck works better than one might think. Moving the little cardboard counters is typical of wargames of this era."

I have never killed, or even been in a fight, with another person. I'm calm, take a lot of advanced classes and aside from the occasional rant about stuff that pisses me off I generally don't have anything against anybody. Think about it this way, it's either kids killing each other in a virtual server or killing people in real life because they don't have a hobby and become degenerates, your choice really. Oh and to the dumb sack of **** who thinks nobody plays video games, the video game industry is especially prosperous now, so get with the times and get out from under your rock.

The word video in video game traditionally referred to a raster display device, but as of the 2000s, it implies any type of display device that can produce two- or three-dimensional images. Some theorists categorize video games as an art form, but this designation is controversial. The electronic systems used to play video games are known as platforms; examples of these are personal computers and video game consoles. These platforms range from large mainframe computers to small handheld computing devices."

"text": "\"Age and Growth in Sharks Why age sharks? Sharks are long-lived animals that grow very slowly and do not produce many young. In many parts of the world, sharks are fished commercially, thus, in order to ensure proper management of the stocks, age and growth data must be obtained. With this data, we can determine the longevity of the species as well as maximum age, age at maturity, growth rate, and differences in growth between males and females. Background Most bony fishes, or teleosts, are aged by the use of banding patterns on bony otoliths or scales. In cartilaginous elasmobranchs, the otoliths, or staticonia, are similar in size to sand grains and the dermal denticles do not grow (Applegate 1967). Some elasmobranch species have hard spines that contain rings suitable for ageing (Ketchen 1975). Most species of elasmobranchs, however, do not have spines, so vertebrae have been used as the ageing structure (Haskel 1949, Ishiyama 1951, Stevens 1975, Cailliet et al. 1983a, b). Several methods have been developed to enhance the concentric pairs of opaque and translucent vertebral bands including the staining of whole vertebrae using silver nitrate (Stevens 1975) or alizarin red S (La Marca 1966); histological sectioning and subsequent staining with hemotoxylin or acid fuschin (Ridewood 1921, Natanson 1984, Casey et al 1985); x-radiography (Cailliet et al 1983a, Wintner 2000); oil clearing (Cailliet et al 1983a); and electron microprobe analysis (Cailliet and Radke 1987)."

The ratings are not meant to tell you what to buy or to serve as the only basis for choosing a product. In addition to using the ratings, consumers should check out content descriptions for more specific information about a game’s content. You can find this information, if applicable, on the product detail page under the Note to Customers advisory. ESRB Ratings Defined Each product is rated by three independent, trained raters. The raters represent a wide range of backgrounds, races, and ages and have no ties to the interactive-entertainment industry. Raters include retired school principals, parents, professionals, and other individuals from all walks of life. Ratings can be found on the cover of each game, and this site also features a text description of each rating on each product detail page. Here are the ESRB rating definitions: Early Childhood – Titles rated Early Childhood (EC) have content suitable for children ages 3 and older and do not contain any material that parents would find inappropriate.

The i5-4210U is a mainstream 15W CPU with a 1.7 GHz base clock over two cores (four threads via Hyper-Threading) that can boost up to 2.7 GHz. It’s paired up with an Intel HD Graphics 4400 GPU, clocked up to 1 GHz, though for the most part that will be disabled in favour of the dedicated Nvidia GPU in this system. The CPU also gets 3 MB of L3 cache like all i5s and i3s in Intel’s mobile Haswell line-up. I found the choice of a 15W U-series CPU to be a little strange for a gaming laptop, where we typically see more powerful M-series Core i7s. The thickness of the Alienware 13 and its cooling solution would suggest it wouldn’t be too hard to support a 37W M-series i7, preferably a quad-core part, or even one of the higher-clocked 28W U-series chips. The extra performance you’d get from an M-series CPU wouldn’t be as necessary when the system is running as a standard laptop, and the U-series chip will provide better battery life. It’s unlikely that the i5-4210U would be a performance bottleneck considering the power of the integrated Ge Force GTX 860M GPU. However with the Graphics Amplifier running a high-end desktop GPU inside, the CPU may start to become a limiting factor due to its low (ish) clock speed and two processing cores. The Alienware 13's discrete GPU is a Ge Force GTX 860M, which seems a little last-generation considering the recent release of 900M-series parts."

But it's aging gracefully. As a product line, the Razer Blade was originally introduced in 2013 Best Price at Amazon as a premium 14-inch-screened gaming notebook. ( It's distinct from the newer Razer Blade Stealth, which is a smaller-screened, ultrabook-style laptop without dedicated graphics.) The Blade has been updated with the latest technology through several generations between then and now, and it has managed to occupy a spot on gamers' lust-lists throughout. This latest model we’re reviewing delivers the best gaming performance we’ve seen from the 14-inch Blade to date, and it’s now virtual reality (VR) ready.

Go to: Abstract This review focuses on the characteristics of tennis players during match play and provides a greater insight into the energy demands of tennis. A tennis match often lasts longer than an hour and in some cases more than five hours. During a match there is a combination of periods of maximal or near maximal work and longer periods of moderate and low intensity activity. Match intensity varies considerably depending on the players' level, style, and sex. It is also influenced by factors such as court surface and ball type. This has important implications for the training of tennis players, which should resemble match intensity and include interval training with appropriate work to rest ratios.

"text": "Pickleball Health Benefits for an Aging Population Blog / 2 COMMENTSBy the year 2030, the number of Americans over the age of 65 is estimated to reach 70 million, and adults over 85 will be the fastest growing segment of the US population. As we turn our attention to the many impacts this will have on all aspects of American society, it is increasingly important that we make those later years as vital, healthy, and enjoyable as possible. We do not want an aging population that spends the last decades of their lives sick, dependent, in pain, and unhappy. A wide range of studies have shown that the best way to ensure health in longevity is to regularly engage in physical activity. Even moderate exercise has been shown to improve all aspects of health with virtually no negative side effects, and the body remains trainable and adaptable into the 80s and 90s. And yet, by the age of 75, 33% of men and 50% of women engage in no physical activity at all. In fact, studies show that many of the physical symptoms we associate with old age, like weakness and loss of balance, are actually symptoms of inactivity and lack of exercise. In addition, many older people are increasingly socially isolated, and loneliness is associated with a broad range of negative health outcomes. Loneliness increases stress hormones in the body, increases blood pressure, and weakens the immune system. Isolated seniors have as much as a 64% higher risk for developing dementia over those with regular social contact."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search The ESRB's \"\"Adults Only\"\" ratings symbol The following is a list of video games that have been given the \"\"Adults Only\"\" (AO) rating by the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB), a United States -based organization which rates the content of video games to determine its appropriateness for specific age groups. Although it is not legally binding under U. S. law, the ESRB rating system is a de facto standard which is self-enforced by the U. S. video game and retail industries. [ 1] In Canada, ESRB ratings are enforceable by provincial law by film classification boards in some provinces. [ 2] [3] [4]Games with the AO rating are considered by the board to be suitable for players age 18 and over; AO-rated games can contain higher levels of violent, profane, sexual, or pornographic content than the next-lowest rating on the scale, Mature (M), which is generally considered suitable for players 17 and over, can accommodate. AO is the highest and most restrictive of the ESRB's content ratings, and dramatically impacts the commercial availability of games which carry it; all three major video game console manufacturers ( Nintendo, Microsoft, and Sony Interactive Entertainment) refuse to allow AO-rated games to be published for their platforms, most retailers refuse to stock AO-rated games, and the popular video game live streaming service Twitch explicitly bans all games carrying the rating. [ 5] Due to these self-imposed restrictions on the marketing and distribution of games with the rating, the AO rating has been described as a \"\"kiss of death\"\" by critics. [ 6] [7] [8]Relatively few games carry the AO-rating; the majority of AO-rated games are adult video games which received the rating for containing sexual and/or pornographic content, but the ESRB has also issued the rating for games containing extreme violence. [ 6] The fighting game Thrill Kill (1998) was given an AO rating for its violent content; its release was cancelled after the acquisition of its publisher, Virgin Interactive, by Electronic Arts, as they objected to the game's content. Rockstar Games ' Manhunt 2 (2007) was the second game given an AO rating for extremely violent content, but was re-edited to meet the M rating so it could be released on consoles (an uncut, AO-rated version for Windows was released in 2009). [ 9] Hatred (2015), a game centering on a character indiscriminately murdering everyone he encounters, was the third game to receive the rating solely for violence."

Another pertinent thing that's also ignored, minimized, or scoffed at are the numerous other scientific methods of dating the earth, solar system, and or universe that yield much younger ages than 500 million years (max). With the exception of Carbon-14, radiometric dating is used to date either igneous or metamorphic rocks that contain radioactive elements such as uranium. And even though various radioactive elements have been used to \"\"date\"\" these rocks, for the most part, the methods are basically the same. They consist of measuring the amount of radioactive (mother) element and comparing it to the amount of stable (daughter) element. A discussion of the Uranium/Lead method follows.

S. Preventive Services Task Force in 2009 and a study on the causes of death in the United Kingdom in 2013, have questioned the value of screening mammograms. Doctors who question the value of mammograms say that while mammograms do save lives, for each breast cancer death prevented, three to four women are overdiagnosed. Overdiagnosis means either:a screening mammogram finds a suspicious area that would have been eventually diagnosed as cancer by other means, without any effect on prognosisa screening mammogram finds a suspicious area that never would have affected a woman’s health if it hadn’t been found or treated False positive results from screening mammograms also have helped fuel the debate about the value of breast cancer screening. When a mammogram shows an abnormal area that looks like a cancer but turns out to be normal, it’s called a false positive. Ultimately the news is good: no breast cancer. But the suspicious area usually requires follow-up with more than one doctor, extra tests, and extra procedures, including a possible biopsy. There are psychological, physical, and economic costs that come with a false positive. These studies and the resulting stories in the media have fueled an ongoing debate about the value of screening mammograms. Since that time, the American Medical Association, the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the American College of Radiology, the National Cancer Institute, and the National Comprehensive Cancer Network all have issued guidelines saying that all women should be eligible for screening mammograms starting at age 40. Now the American Cancer Society (ACS) has released updated breast cancer screening guidelines that recommend that women at average risk start regular annual screening with mammography at age 45 and move to screening every 2 years at age 55."

"text": "\"Health American Cancer Society, in a Shift, Recommends Fewer Mammograms By DENISE GRADY OCT. 20, 2015368A doctor reading mammograms at the University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston. The American Cancer Society said women should begin mammograms later and have them less frequently. Ed Kashi/VII, via Corbis One of the most respected and influential groups in the continuing breast- cancer screening debate said on Tuesday that women should begin mammograms later and have them less frequently than it had long advocated. The American Cancer Society, which has for years taken the most aggressive approach to screening, issued new guidelines on Tuesday, recommending that women with an average risk of breast cancer start having mammograms at 45 and continue once a year until 54, then every other year for as long as they are healthy and likely to live another 10 years. The organization also said it no longer recommended clinical breast exams, in which doctors or nurses feel for lumps, for women of any age who have had no symptoms of abnormality in the breasts. Previously, the society recommended mammograms and clinical breast exams every year, starting at 40. The changes reflect increasing evidence that mammography is imperfect, that it is less useful in younger women, and that it has serious drawbacks, like false-positive results that lead to additional testing, including biopsies. But the organization’s shift seems unlikely to settle the issue. Some other influential groups recommend earlier and more frequent screening than the cancer society now does, and some recommend less, leaving women and their doctors to sort through the conflicting messages and to figure out what makes the most sense for their circumstances."

USA TODAY’s Liz Szabo and Shannon Rae Green discuss the news. USA TODAY (Photo: Damian Dovarganes, ASSOCIATED PRESS)CONNECT TWEET LINKEDIN EMAIL MORESix years ago, the American Cancer Society lashed out against a federal task force that suggested most women could wait to get a mammogram until age 50, instead of age 40, the age that other groups recommended to begin breast cancer screening. Delaying mammograms, the cancer society said, would lead to the death of more women. Now, in a move that reflects changing attitudes about cancer screening, the American Cancer Society is itself recommending fewer mammograms. In guidelines released Tuesday, the society said that women at average risk of breast cancer should begin annual mammograms at age 45 – five years later than it had previously recommended. The society said it reached this conclusion after carefully weighing both the benefits and harms of mammograms for younger women, whose risk of breast cancer is much lower than that of older women. By age 55, women can transition to being screened every other year. That's because breast cancers tend to grow more slowly after menopause, making it safe for women to be checked less often, according to the guidelines, published online Tuesday in JAMA, formerly the Journal of the American Medical Association. In another major change, the society said doctors no longer need to perform breast exams during women's checkups, since these exams have not been shown to save lives."

"text": "Home Tests And Treatments Mammogram When Should You Have Your First Mammogram When Should You Have Your First Mammogram As with all kinds of cancer, the best chance that anyone has of survival and cure is early detection. Only if the cancer is detected early is there a good chance of recovery; and this is most true in the case of breast cancer, among the most common cancers in the world. One of the best tools for detecting a breast cancer early on is to perform mammograms at and from the prescribed age onwards because a breast cancer is asymptomatic for years and it should be detected before symptoms actually appear; by which time it may have advanced considerably. A mammogram is basically performed on the woman’s breasts using X rays that are low-dose amplitude, which help in diagnosing and screening breast cancer. Advertisement It is generally advisable for women to get their first mammogram performed at age 35 and in the event that a woman has a family history of cancer, then that age should be earlier. After the first mammogram at age 35, the next one should be at age 40 when it should be performed every other year. After age 50, it should be undergone every year. This is an expense worth incurring if not covered by your insurance. Advertisementtweet Previous article Yellow Fever Vaccination – When To Take And Are There Any Risks?

"text": "With differing mammogram guidelines, I'm not sure when to begin mammogram screening. What does Mayo Clinic recommend? Answers from Sandhya Pruthi, M. D. At Mayo Clinic, doctors offer mammograms to women beginning at age 40 and continuing annually. When to begin mammogram screening and how often to repeat it is a personal decision based on your preferences. Mayo Clinic recommends women and their doctors discuss the benefits, risks and limitations of mammograms and decide together what is best. Balancing the benefits of screening with the limitations and risks is a key part of deciding when to begin mammograms and how often to repeat them. Not all organizations agree on breast cancer screening guidelines, but most emphasize working with your doctor to determine what's right for your particular situation. For instance, the U. S. Preventive Services Task Force mammogram guidelines recommend women begin screening at age 50 and the American Cancer Society recommends women begin screening at age 45. But both of these organizations acknowledge that beginning screening at 40 may make sense for some women after considering the benefits and limitations of the test. Reacting to changing evidence Mayo Clinic doctors continue to review studies about mammogram guidelines to understand what the studies mean for women's health."

A large study confirmed the benefits of regular mammograms. This study also emphasized that there is no upper age limit for mammograms. More than 12,000 women age 80 or older participated in this study. Of the women diagnosed with breast cancer, those who had regular mammograms (at least three mammograms in the 5 years before being diagnosed) were more likely to be diagnosed with early-stage disease. Women who did not have regular mammograms (zero, one or two mammograms in the 5 years before diagnosis) were more likely to be diagnosed with later-stage disease.68% of women who had regular mammograms were diagnosed with stage I breast cancer56% of women who got mammograms irregularly and 33% of women who DIDN'T get mammograms were diagnosed with stage I disease32% of women who had regular mammograms were diagnosed with stage II, III or IV breast cancer44% of women who got mammograms irregularly and 67% of women who DIDN'T get mammograms were diagnosed with stage II, III or IV disease Women older than 80 who got regular mammograms also were more likely to be living 5 years after being diagnosed compared to women who didn't get regular mammograms. Despite the benefits of regular mammograms for women age 80 and older, the researchers found that only about 20% of these women actually got regular mammograms. These results agree with other research showing that women are less likely to get annual mammograms as they age. There probably are many reasons why older women get fewer mammograms: An overall decline in health, as well as other medical problems that may seem more serious. This may make it harder for older women to schedule and get to a mammogram facility."

The notifications have caused confusion and concern for many women. Certified Menopause Specialist with The Austin Diagnostic Clinic (ADC) Michele Mc Dermott, MD and Breast Imager with Austin Radiological Association (ARA) Catherine Young, JD, MD worked together to provide this comprehensive question and answer guide for women concerned about breast density, mammograms and what it all means. Michele Mc Dermott, MD, ADC Certified Menopause Specialist Catherine Young, MD, ARA Breast Imager What is Henda’s Law? Henda’s Law is a bill that was passed by the Texas House and Senate in 2011 that was named after Henda Salmeron, a woman who found a lump in her breast that had not been detected on her mammogram. The lump turned out to be a large malignancy in her breast, missed because Henda had dense breast tissue. Henda’s Law requires that mammography providers notify all women with dense breast tissue that the accuracy of their mammograms is less than that of women with lower breast density, and that they may benefit from “supplemental screening” in addition to their annual mammogram. www.texashealth.org/ hendas – law The Austin Diagnostic Clinic Women’s Imaging Center sends a letter to inform a woman of her mammogram result. The letter includes a comment to inform the woman if she is found to have dense breast tissue. How common is having dense breasts?40% of women have dense breast tissue and 10% of women have extremely dense breasts."

Some research suggests digital is more sensitive and more accurate in young women with dense breasts, but no difference in outcomes has been shown.. 3D imaging is NOT covered by most insurance companies. There may be a small increase in detection of cancers, but not enough to make it the gold standard yet; further studies are being done to see if it will replace 2D imaging.

"text": "Overview Receiving a mammogram A mammogram is an X-ray image of your breasts used to screen for breast cancer. Mammograms play a key role in early breast cancer detection and help decrease breast cancer deaths. During a mammogram, your breasts are compressed between two firm surfaces to spread out the breast tissue. Then an X-ray captures black-and-white images of your breasts that are displayed on a computer screen and examined by a doctor who looks for signs of cancer. A mammogram can be used either for screening or for diagnostic purposes. How often you should have a mammogram depends on your age and your risk of breast cancer. Why it's done Mammography is X-ray imaging of your breasts designed to detect tumors and other abnormalities. Mammography can be used either for screening or for diagnostic purposes in evaluating a breast lump: Screening mammography. Screening mammography is used to detect breast changes in women who have no signs or symptoms or new breast abnormalities. The goal is to detect cancer before clinical signs are noticeable."

Now the American Cancer Society has revised its guidelines, saying most women can start at age 45.

Until Tuesday, the American Cancer Society said women should get one every year starting at age 40, as well as regular breast exams by their doctors. The new American Cancer Society guidelines are far more complicated. They say women of average risk of breast cancer can wait until they’re 45 to have a first mammogram and should have them every year until age 55, and then start having them every other year. “This is one more set of recommendations that will be confusing to women and their primary care providers. \"\" This is a little closer to the U.

The program, created under the Social Security Amendments of 1965, is available to low-income individuals in the United States, the District of Columbia, and U. S. territories. It is a collaboration between federal and state governments to provide coverage for basic health care. Understanding how it works will help you to make the most of its benefits. Who Can Get Medicaid? Many people with low incomes would be unable to afford health insurance without government assistance. This is where Medicaid comes into play. The U. S. Department of Health and Human Services determines the federal poverty level (FPL) every year, and these values are used to set the eligibility standards for Medicaid.

INTRODUCTIONWhen an individual enters a nursing home for the long term, the spouse remaining in the couples home may fear financial devastation from paying the high cost of nursing home care. However, Medicaid rules have been designed to protect certain income and assets for the at-home spouse, without affecting the nursing home spouses eligibility for publicly funded long-term care. While some may view the amounts that are protected as quite modest or even inadequate to sustain the at-home spouses accustomed standard of living, they far exceed the income and asset levels that may be retained in the case of unmarried recipients of Medicaid long-term care services."

"text": "Q: Does the Affordable Care Act allow states to confiscate the estates of seniors on Medicaid when they die? A: No, but a 1993 federal law requires states to recover Medicaid costs for long-term care from the estates of deceased Medicaid beneficiaries over the age of 55. FULL QUESTIONAs The Seattle Times notes: “If you’re 55 or over, Medicaid can come back after you’re dead and bill your estate for ordinary health-care expenses.” Is this in/part of the Affordable Care Act? Does Obamacare and the Medicaid expansion allow states to confiscate the estates of seniors when they die? FULL ANSWERThe Seattle Times published an article on Dec. 15, under the headline “Expanded Medicaid’s fine print holds surprise: ‘payback’ from estate after death,” that said: “If you’re 55 or over, Medicaid can come back after you’re dead and bill your estate for ordinary health-care expenses.” The Times is right that the state of Washington has this power, but it was not in the “fine print” of the Affordable Care Act (as the story itself makes clear). All states have had the option since Medicaid began in 1965 to recover some Medicaid costs from recipients after they die, as the Department of Health and Human Services explains in a 2005 policy brief. In 1965, it was optional and states could only recoup Medicaid costs spent on those 65 years or older. That changed in 1993, when Congress passed an omnibus budget bill that required states to recover the expense of long-term care and related costs for deceased Medicaid recipients 55 or older."

Medicare is a federal health insurance program open to Americans aged 65 and older, and those with specific disabilities who are under the age of 65. Medicaid, a combined state and federal program, is a state-specific insurance program for low-income individuals with limited financial assets, regardless of their age. Medicare, generally speaking, offers the same benefits to all eligible participants. However, coverage is divided into Medicare Part A, Part B, and Part D. Medicare Part A is for hospice care, skilled nursing facility care, and inpatient hospital care. Medicare Part B is for outpatient care, durable medical equipment, and home health care. Part D is for prescription coverage. Not all persons will elect to have coverage in all three areas. Medicaid is more comprehensive in its coverage, but the benefits are specific to the age group. Children have different eligibility requirements and receive different benefits from low-income adults and from elderly or disabled persons."

"text": "\"Raising Medicare's eligibility age from 65 to 67, which the new Joint Select Committee will likely consider this fall as a deficit-reduction measure, would not only fail to constrain health care costs across the economy; it would increase them. While this proposal would save the federal government money, it would do so by shifting costs to most of the 65- and 66-year-olds who would lose Medicare coverage, to employers that provide health coverage for their retirees, to Medicare beneficiaries, to younger people who buy insurance through the new health insurance exchanges, and to states. The principal study of the effects of raising the Medicare eligibility age, by the Kaiser Family Foundation, estimates that its increased state and private-sector costs would be twice as large as the net federal savings . If the proposal were fully in effect in 2014, Kaiser estimates, it would generate $5.7 billion in net federal savings but $11.4 billion in higher health care costs to individuals, employers, and states. The fundamental purpose of deficit reduction is to strengthen the economy over the long term. The relentless rise in health care costs is the key driver of projected long-term deficits that policymakers must address. But reducing federal health care costs by raising state and private-sector health care costs even more makes little sense, as it only increases the burden that health care costs place on the economy as a whole. The goal should be to slow the growth of health care costs system-wide, while extending coverage to all Americans. This proposal does just the opposite on both fronts — raising costs system-wide and increasing the ranks of the uninsured. The Kaiser report found that if policymakers raised the Medicare eligibility age to 67:65- and 66-year-olds would face higher out-of-pocket health care costs, on average."

However, this page is focused on Medicaid eligibility, specifically for Pennsylvania residents, aged 65 and over, and specifically for long term care, whether that be at home, in a nursing home or in assisted living. Make note, Medicaid in Pennsylvania is called Medical Assistance (MA). The American Council on Aging now offers a free, quick and easy Medicaid eligibility test for seniors. Pennsylvania Medicaid Eligibility & Programs There are several different Medicaid long-term care programs for which Pennsylvania seniors may be eligible. These programs have slightly different eligibility requirements and benefits. Further complicating eligibility are the facts that the criteria vary with marital status and that Pennsylvania offers multiple pathways towards eligibility.1) Institutional / Nursing Home Medicaid – is an entitlement (anyone who is eligible will receive assistance) & is provided only in nursing homes. 2) Medicaid Waivers / Home and Community Based Services – Limited number of participants.

Most states offer multiple programs. Does Medicaid pay for home care for aging individuals? The short answer to this question is Yes. However, to better understand how and when Medicaid's home care benefits apply, it is necessary to provide some background information on what Medicaid is and how it works. Funds for Medicaid come from both the federal government and the individual state governments and as such, the rules governing Medicaid also come from two sources. The federal government sets certain standards but gives the states considerable flexibility with regards to the services they provide. This is especially true in the area of home care. A second complication to understanding Medicaid's home care benefits is that within each state there are multiple Medicaid programs that offer different home care benefits."

S. covering nearly 70 million Americans. 1 States design and administer their own Medicaid programs within federal requirements, and states and the federal government finance the program jointly. Medicaid plays many roles in our health care system (Figure 1). Medicaid coverage facilitates access to care for beneficiaries, covering a wide range of benefits and tightly limiting out-of-pocket costs for care. As a major payer, Medicaid is a core source of financing for safety-net hospitals and health centers that serve low-income communities, including many of the uninsured. It is also the main source of coverage and financing for both nursing home and community-based long-term care. Altogether, Medicaid finances 16% of total personal health spending in the U. S. Figure 1: Medicaid’s Role in Our Health Care System The Affordable Care Act (ACA), enacted on March 23, 2010, expanded the Medicaid program significantly as part of a broader plan to cover millions of uninsured Americans. 2 Specifically, the ACA expanded Medicaid eligibility to nearly all non-elderly adults with income at or below 138% of the federal poverty level (FPL) – about $16,245 for an individual in 2015. This expansion established a new coverage pathway for millions of uninsured adults who were previously excluded from Medicaid, beginning January 1, 2014. The law also provided for 100% federal funding of the expansion through 2016, declining gradually to 90% in 2020 and future years."

"text": "\"Introduction: Generally speaking, an employee is someone who works for an employer. An employee is controlled by the employer and has little discretion in the timing and performance his or her tasks. Independent contractors, on the other hand, contract to do work and have the ability to perform the work without being subject to the control of the employer (as long as they meet the expected results required by the contract). This distinction is very important because employers enjoy a number of benefits when using independent contractors instead of employees. Employers do not have to pay for unemployment compensation with independent contractors, can easily discharge independent contractors, and (typically) are not responsible for the negligent acts of independent contractors (vicarious liability). Therefore, it may be extremely cost efficient for employers to pay independent contractors slightly more money to perform a task than it would be to have employees perform the same task. Back to top. Independent Contractors: Individuals who perform services for wages are presumed to be employees unless the wage-paying party (newspaper) can sufficiently meet the following two requirements:the person is free from control and direction in the performance of work; andthe person is customarily engaged in an independent trade or business. Therefore, if a newspaper wishes to hire independent contractors to deliver or distribute newspapers, these two requirements must be taken into consideration. When examining whether the person is free from control and direction in the performance of work, the courts consider the following factors: control of the manner in which work is to be done;responsibility for result only;terms of agreement between the parties;the nature of the work or occupation;skill required for performance;whether one employed is engaged in a distinct occupation or business;which party supplies the tools;whether payment is by the time or by the job;whether work is part of the regular business of the alleged employer;whether the alleged employer has the right to terminate the employment at any time;whether taxes were deducted from claimant's pay;whether the alleged employer offered on-the-job training; andrequirements demanded by the alleged employer Although courts look to the above factors when analyzing whether someone is an independent contractor, the most important factor is whether the employer has the right to control the work to be done and the manner in which it is performed."

"text": "\"Friday, December 8, 2000 - Page updated at 12:00 AME-mail article Print Long-term effects of strike could cost jobs and papers Seattle Times staff Forget the vandalized trucks or brawls between strikers and replacement workers that have marred newspaper strikes elsewhere. In Seattle, strikers and management have scrapped over whether pickets can block company vehicles for 2 minutes or 45 seconds. Nonunion editors leaving work often get hugs from reporters toting \"\"On Strike\"\" signs. \"\" Most polite strike I've ever been in,\"\" said Bruce Meachum, chief negotiator for the Pacific Northwest Newspaper Guild, whose nearly 1,000 members are on strike against the Seattle Times and Seattle Post-Intelligencer. But the picket-line civility masks the growing risks if the nearly 18-day-old strike turns into a drawn-out battle. While the two sides sit down today for their first face-to-face talks since the strike began, both sides acknowledge that a lengthy strike could put both jobs and the financial health of the city's two dailies at risk just as the economy is starting to slow down. And some analysts speculate that if it goes on too long, Seattle could wind up with only one daily newspaper. The four newspaper strikes of the 1990s provide evidence of the stakes involved. A 1994 San Francisco strike was settled in just 11 days, resulting in a compromise settlement. The other three--in New York, Pittsburgh and Detroit--were long, bitter and costly."

"text": "Essay: Should marijuana be legal? I believe that one of the main reasons marijuana should be legal is because of the way it was criminalized in the first place. In the years before the depression there was a significant growth of Mexican-Americans in the Western part of the United States as a result of the revolution in Mexico in 1910. As the depression hit, larger farms started using the Mexicans as cheaper labor, which in turn put many smaller farmers out of business and caused much tension. These Mexican laborers were known to use the marijuana plant as a recreational drug by smoking the leaves of the plant. Sprouting from the many Mexicans working on farms, many farms harvesting the hemp plant popped up in Mexico itself. Around the same time many Mormons from the Salt Lake City area were traveling to Mexico. In their return they would bring back marijuana for the sole purpose of recreational use. The Mormon Church did not approve of this behavior and ruled against it, which in turn prompted the very religious state of Utah to pass the first known law against marijuana in 1915. Many other Western states followed in years to come."

"text": "\"Minimum Wage Exemptions Under the FLSAUnknown to many American workers, the Department of Labor has specified dozens of exemptions to Federal minimum wage law. While many of these exemptions are designed to protect employers, they have still been the center of hot debate for decades. Who can get paid less then minimum wage, and why? Farm workers, seasonal workers, other exempt jobs The Federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) has declared certain jobs, including farm workers, seasonal workers, newspaper deliverers, \"\"informal\"\" workers (babysitters, etc) and a variety of others exempt from both state and federal minimum wage law. You can find more exempt jobs at the full list of minimum wage exemptions below. These exemptions are intended to allow certain types of business to hire workers for temporary or high-volume positions that they otherwise could not afford to fill, thus helping the economy by creating more jobs. Tipped employees Any worker who earns regular tips (specified as earning at least $30 in tips a month by the FLSA) is eligible for a special tipped minimum wage rate. Employers are permitted to pay tipped employees an hourly cash wage of as little as $2.13/hr- however, if this wage and the tips earned during that hour do not add up to at least the applicable minimum wage, the employer must make up the difference in cash. Thus, tipped employees are guaranteed to earn at least minimum wage, and can earn more then minimum wage in tips. Minors and young workers The \"\"Youth Minimum Wage Program\"\" allows young workers under the age of 20 to be paid a special minimum wage of $4.25 per hour for the first 90 days of employment with any employer."

"text": "Home »Job Descriptions »Technical Job Descriptions What Do Newspaper Delivery Jobs Pay? By Rick Suttle; Updated July 05, 2017Robert Byron/Hemera/Getty Images Residential customers depend on newspaper delivery workers for timely deliveries so they can catch the latest news before work or complete the crossword puzzle. Whether they deliver for large newspaper distributors or own specific routes, delivery drivers plan their daily stops, collect payments and maintain records of all customers. Their salaries can vary, depending on the number of customers they service, route ownership and geographical area. Salary of Approximately $28,000Newspaper deliverers are classified as driver/sales workers by the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. They earned an average of $27,900 as of May 2013, according to the BLS. Salaries for newspaper deliverers ranged from $16,830 to more than $46,800. While sales drivers usually need a high school diploma because they interact and negotiate more with business owners, dependability, organization skills and a valid driver’s license are more pertinent for newspaper deliverers. East Coast States Pay More In 2013, newspaper delivery drivers earned the highest salaries of $35,130 in Alaska, the BLS reported, and the lowest salaries of $24,930 in Ohio, among the states listed. Six states in the Northeast region, including Maine, New Jersey, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut and Maryland, and Washington, D. C., paid newspaper drivers between $29,920 and $35,130, which represented the highest-paying national quadrant."

A newspaper is a periodical publication containing written information about current events. Newspapers can cover wide variety of fields such as politics, business, sport and art and often include materials such as opinion columns, weather forecasts, reviews of local services, obituaries, birth notices, crosswords, editorial cartoons, comic strips, and advice columns. Most newspapers are businesses, and they pay their expenses with a mixture of subscription revenue, newsstand sales, and advertising revenue. The journalism organizations that publish newspapers are themselves often metonymically called newspapers. Newspapers have traditionally been published in print (usually on cheap, low-grade paper called newsprint ). However, today most newspapers are also published on websites as online newspapers, and some have even abandoned their print versions entirely. Newspapers developed in the 17th century, as information sheets for businessmen. By the early 19th century, many cities in Europe, as well as North and South America, published newspapers. Some newspapers with high editorial independence, high journalism quality, and large circulation are viewed as newspapers of record."

R. C. ch. 23) is a United States federal law that imposes a federal employer tax used to help fund state workforce agencies. Employers report this tax by filing an annual Form 940 with the Internal Revenue Service. In some cases, the employer is required to pay the tax in installments during the tax year. FUTA covers a federal share of the costs of administering the unemployment insurance (UI) and job service programs in every state. In addition, FUTA pays one-half of the cost of extended unemployment benefits (during periods of high unemployment) and provides for a fund from which states may borrow, if necessary, to pay benefits. Contents [ hide ]1 Amount of tax1.1 Credit reduction2 Exempt wages3 See also4 References5 External links Amount of tax [ edit]Until June 30, 2011, the Federal Unemployment Tax Act imposed a tax of 6.2%, which was composed of a permanent rate of 6.0% and a temporary rate of 0.2%, which was passed by Congress in 1976. The temporary rate was extended many times, but it expired on June 30, 2011. Consequently, for the years until 2010 and the first six months of 2011, the FUTA imposed a 6.2% tax (before credits) on the first $7,000 of gross earnings of each worker per year.

Older adults over 65 years of age, or adults with serious heart, chest, kidney and other long-term health problems, are recommended to get the flu vaccine for protection against flu. The annual flu vaccine is made available from September each year in advance of the winter flu season. A fresh vaccine is developed and provided each year to protect against the particular flu strains circulating that year. Everyone aged over 65 is also recommended to get the Pneumococcal vaccine, which helps protect against pneumonia as well as a form of bacterial meningitis caused by pneumococcal bacteria. One injection provides years of protection. In Scotland around 7000 people aged 70 years and over get shingles every year. But now there is a vaccine that can reduce your risk of getting shingles (also known as herpes zoster), or, if you do get shingles, it can reduce how serious the symptoms will be. Immunisations for older adults: Influenza (Flu) vaccine Helps protect against flu. Pneumococcal vaccine Provides some protection against a form of bacterial meningitis caused by pneumococcal bacteria, as well as other conditions such as pneumonia caused by pneumococcal bacteria."

Infection with this bacteria can cause serious problems, including pneumonia, blood infection or meningitis -- infection of the coverings surrounding the brain and spinal cord. Two forms of pneumococcal vaccines, PCV13 (Prevnar 13) and PPSV23 (Pneumovax 23), are available and used in specific circumstances. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends pneumococcal vaccination for all children younger than 2 years of age, all adults 65 years and older and people between these ages who smoke or have certain medical conditions. Although generally very safe, pneumonia shots may produce side effects, which are usually mild and transient. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Injection Site Symptoms At least half of all people who receive pneumonia shots will experience mild side effects in the area of injection, such as pain or redness. Less commonly, swelling or hardness may also occur in the area. These symptoms can limit movement of the arm or leg where the shot was given. Injection site side effects may be more common when people receive repeat injections. These side effects should diminish within a couple days of receiving the shot."

There are at least 12 serogroups. B, C, W and Y have historically been the most common in the UK. [ 1]Meningococcal infection most commonly leads to meningitis or septicaemia. It can also cause pneumonia, septic arthritis, myocarditis, endocarditis, pericarditis, conjunctivitis and cervicitis. Serogroup C's contribution has fallen dramatically since the introduction of childhood vaccination against the disease. Serogroup B is now responsible for 80% of cases in the UK; a new vaccination for this serogroup was licensed in the UK in 2013. [ 2]Serogroup A causes the majority of epidemic meningococcal infection in the 'African meningitis belt'; it is extremely rare in the UK. Incidence of meningococcal disease is highest in the those aged under 1, followed by those aged 1-5, with a second peak of risk occurring in those aged 15-19 (particularly if living in crowded or closed communities - eg, barracks and student halls). Although meningococcal disease occurs more commonly in young children, the mortality rate amongst young adults is higher."

"text": "We know it’s painful to watch baby get poked and even worse to hear the inevitable crying, but immunizations are crucial for his or her health. If baby is extremely sick, then your pediatrician will probably modify the immunization schedule. Otherwise, baby should get vaccinated on a regular basis following the guidelines from the American Academy of Pediatrics and the CDC. Though some children do suffer from mild reactions to immunizations, very few become seriously ill, and any pediatrician will reassure you that the benefits of having antibodies (needed to fight infections) far outweigh the risks of baby getting shots. So what exactly do these shots protect baby from? We broke it down with help from the AAP: Hepatitis B Vaccine (Hep B)It prevents : Hepatitis B, a chronic or acute liver disease that can lead to liver failure and cancer. When baby gets it : The first dose should be given before baby's discharged from the hospital after birth. A second dose should happen between 1 and 2 months of age. If, for some reason, baby doesn’t get the hepatitis B vaccine at the hospital,he or she will need three doses—at 0, 1 and 6 months—and the final dosage should be administered no earlier than 24 weeks old. If mom is hepatitis B surface antigen (HBs Ag) positive, baby should get the vaccine—plus hepatitis B immune globulin—within 12 hours of birth, and then receive three more doses of the vaccine between 9 and 18 months, and be tested for HBs Ag and the antibody to HBs Ag one to two months after completion of the dosages."

"text": "In my last blog, I discussed the importance of the flu vaccination for people with COPD (chronic bronchitis and emphysema). This month, I’m talking about pneumonia and the importance of the pneumococcal vaccination. Pneumonia refers to an acute infection of the lower respiratory tract. Pneumonias may be caused by a variety of germs, including viruses, bacteria, and occasionally fungi. People who get pneumonia may have coughing, fever and chills, and trouble breathing. Chest pain, reduced energy, confusion, and loss of appetite may also occur. If you get pneumonia, you may experience all, some, or none of these symptoms, depending upon the type of infection as well as your immune response to the infection. People with COPD are more susceptible to developing pneumonia and more likely to require hospitalization from it. Pneumonia can lead to a COPD exacerbation (“breathing attack”), which can cause coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath. As a result, a low oxygen level may develop, requiring the use of oxygen until the pneumonia clears up."

"text": "Shingles Introduction Symptoms Causes Diagnosis Treatment Complications Introduction Shingles, also known as herpes zoster, is an infection of a nerve and the skin around it. It's caused by the varicella-zoster virus, which also causes chickenpox. It's estimated that around one in every four people will have at least one episode of shingles during their life. Symptoms of shingles The main symptom of shingles is pain, followed by a rash that develops into itchy blisters , similar in appearance to chickenpox . New blisters may appear for up to a week, but a few days after appearing they become yellowish in colour, flatten and dry out. Scabs then form where the blisters were, which may leave some slight scarring. The pain may be a constant, dull or burning sensation and its intensity can vary from mild to severe. You may have sharp stabbing pains from time to time, and the affected area of skin will usually be tender. In some cases, shingles may cause some early symptoms that develop a few days before the painful rash first appears. These early symptoms can include:a headacheburning, tingling, numbness or itchiness of the skin in the affected areaa feeling of being generally unwella high temperature (fever)An episode of shingles typically lasts around two to four weeks."

Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML5 video. Childcare Network prekindergarten programs aim to prepare young children to be “ready to learn” when they enter kindergarten. Research in brain development shows that early learning experiences directly influence a child’s ability to succeed in school, and children who participate in quality prekindergarten programs are more likely to show strengths in language, reasoning, problem solving, social skills, behavior and emotional health. We utilize a comprehensive curriculum that is flexible, engaging, and fun for children. Our Pre-K programs provide standards-based classroom support materials, family connection components, and easy-to-understand strategies for putting it all together and achieving school readiness. Kindergarten Prep Academy at Childcare Network Kindergarten Prep Academy at Childcare Network is a premiere prekindergarten program for children ages 4-5 who will be starting Kindergarten the following school year. We operate our KPA classrooms on a full day, full year schedule, with our KPA curriculum programming focused during the “typical” school day hours of 9-4 to prepare children for the routine of Kindergarten. Children are provided with breakfast, lunch, and an afternoon snack to keep their minds active while they are enjoy exploring and learning in their classroom. They are encouraged to explore centers throughout the classroom, engage in activities that interest them, and build their social skills with other children in their class."

Children must be 4 years old on or before August 31 of the program year in order to be eligible, and must meet income qualifications. Children with identified disabilities and children with other documented risk factors may also be eligible. All families, including military families, are encouraged to apply. The NC Pre-K Program standards are built on the premise that in order to be academically successful in school, children need to be prepared in all five of the major domains of development outlined by the National Education Goals Panel. Each of these domains is critical to children's well being, in particular for their success in reading and math as they come to school. The five domains are: Health and physical development Social and emotional development Language development and communication Cognition and general knowledge Approaches to learning NC Pre-K operates on the public school calendar. Children are required to have a health assessment, including dental and vision, upon enrollment. A developmental assessment is also provided to identify special needs and monitor growth in the program. Children also receive family support, and other community resources as needed."

"text": "Paying for Childcare Quality child care is very expensive to provide. In a good program there are only a few children to each teacher. The environment is stimulating, with many fun, child-oriented toys and things to do, and lots of space for children to move around. Well-trained and compensated teachers, toys and equipment, space and nutritious meals add up to high costs. In our society, most of the responsibility of paying for child care falls on parents. In many instances, the cost of child care can exceed the cost of college tuition. Many families, however, cannot afford the cost of care on their own. Listed below are some of the ways that families can get help paying for child care: Tax credits Child Care Services Association’s Scholarship Program Departments of Social/Human Services – Child Care Subsidy Assistance Head Start and Early Head Start NC Pre-KChild Care Program Discounts, Scholarships, and Sliding Fee Scales Employer Assistance/Flexible Spending Accounts Tax credits Parents who have child care expenses and pay federal and/or state income taxes may be eligible to receive assistance through the federal and state Child and Dependent Care Tax Credits, the Child Tax Credit for families with children, and the Earned Income Tax Credit for low-income families.2017 Tax Credit Information for Families Créditos de Impuestos 2017 Información para Familias2018 Free VITA Tax Preparation Locations Locales para la Preparacion Gratuita de Ipuestos 2018Child Care Services Association’s Scholarship Program Child Care Services Association (CCSA), with funds from Durham’s Partnership for Children – a Smart Start Initiative, United Way of the Greater Triangle, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC-CH), the Towns of Chapel Hill and Carrboro, and other private donors, administers a child care scholarship program for families in Durham and Orange Counties, and families affiliated with UNC-CH. To receive a CCSA scholarship, parents must be working, looking for work, in school, or unable to work, or have a child with a documented developmental need. Families must meet specific income-eligibility guidelines."

Please help to improve this article by introducing more precise citations. ( September 2015) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)Long non-coding RNAs ( long nc RNAs, lnc RNA) are defined as transcripts longer than 200 nucleotides that are not translated into protein. [ 1] This somewhat arbitrary limit distinguishes long nc RNAs from small non-coding RNAs such as micro RNAs (mi RNAs), short interfering RNAs (si RNAs), Piwi-interacting RNAs (pi RNAs), small nucleolar RNAs (sno RNAs), and other short RNAs. [ 2] Lnc RNAs are sometimes referred to as long intergenic noncoding RNAs (linc RNAs), which specifies that they are found in between coding genes rather than antisense to them or within introns.

However, it is large-scale complementary DNA (c DNA) sequencing projects such as FANTOM (Functional Annotation of Mammalian c DNA) that reveal the complexity of this transcription. [ 4] The FANTOM3 project identified ~35,000 non-coding transcripts from ~10,000 distinct loci that bear many signatures of m RNAs, including 5’ capping, splicing, and poly-adenylation, but have little or no open reading frame (ORF). [ 4] While the abundance of long nc RNAs was unanticipated, this number represents a conservative lower estimate, since it omitted many singleton transcripts and non- polyadenylated transcripts ( tiling array data shows more than 40% of transcripts are non-polyadenylated). [ 5] However, unambiguously identifying nc RNAs within these c DNA libraries is challenging since it can be difficult to distinguish protein-coding transcripts from non-coding transcripts."

LASIK recovery is often minimal and very little time passes between surgery and when patients achieve very clear vision. In fact, according to a recent review of international research, more than 95 percent of patients are satisfied with the outcome of their LASIK eye surgery, and most are able to see clearly without glasses or contact lenses after the procedure. Recovery periods for PRK vs LASIK or LASEK Vs LASIK are longer because no flap is created during these procedures. Immediately After LASIKYou will see noticeably better without glasses immediately following your LASIK procedure. But, while your eyes are healing, it is normal for your vision to fluctuate and be less than perfect during your LASIK recovery. The post-LASIK healing process typically takes several weeks, and during this time it is not unusual to experience sensitivity to light, blurred and/or fluctuating vision, glare, halos around lights and poor night vision. Also, most people experience some degree of dry eyes immediately after LASIK and this common side effect can last several weeks or even months after vision correction surgery. Everyone's eyes heal differently. Your recovery from LASIK surgery may be quick and uneventful, or you may experience LASIK side effects and slower healing than the average patient."

It begins at home, and for many children some time between 5 months and 3 years, it continues in nurseries or pre-schools. The best of these can offer an enjoyable and smooth transition from toddlerhood to the Reception classes at primary school. Many of the prep schools featured on this site have a nursery class for 3 to 4 year-olds attached to them – I will not go into details on these again, but you can find a list of top schools that start at the nursery level at the end of this article. Instead, I want highlight several of the most popular pre-school choices in Central London that I have often heard recommended by other parents. If your child is attending a warm and loving nursery that you do not see listed here, please feel free to share this information with other parents by leaving a comment below. The nurseries below are all oversubscribed, so make sure you also read our advice on “getting a place at a top nursery school!” and what to look out for when you visit nursery schools.

Preschool is an opportunity for growth For many children, preschool is their first experience in a structured setting with teachers and groups of children. It’s an opportunity to learn to share, follow instructions, and begin the foundation for learning that will occur in elementary school. Preschool prepares children for kindergarten As kindergarten becomes more academic, many parents look to preschool to launch their child on the path to success in school. At the same time, parents may worry that the current trend to focus on pre-math and pre-literacy skills in preschool cuts into important play time and pushes a child to grow up too fast. It’s a confusing issue,especially with friends and family offering different opinions and advice. Fortunately, in selecting a preschool, parents aren’t forced to choose between protecting a child’s play time and making sure she’s ready for kindergarten. A high-quality early childhood education program will offer children both. But how do high-quality preschools benefit children’s learning and development?"

"text": "\"Difference Between Preschool and Kindergarten Posted on July 14, 2011 by koshal Last updated on: March 9, 2015Preschool vs Kindergarten The difference between preschool and kindergarten is in the form of education they offer. Now, if you are a parent, you realize how difficult it has become for kids to compete with others in school, and later on in life to be successful in general. Gone are the times when parents did not even remember the class their kids were studying in, let alone bother with best of schools. Those were the times when there was no concept of a preschool, a type of educational setting, which is in vogue, and greatly in demand today to prepare students for primary schools that begin with Kindergarten. Kindergarten is the name given to first formal classroom that a student studies in. Let us find out the real differences between a preschool and kindergarten. What is Preschool? With passage of time and increasing population, competition started at a very early stage, when it was time to get admission for your kid in a respected school. If your child was average and could not compete with bright boys, you had no option but to get him admitted to inferior school. This led to development of organizations that took upon themselves the mantle of preparing your kid to face the admission test, and to do well in reputed schools later on."

The bill approved late Thursday will push back the date by which children must turn 5 to enter kindergarten from Dec. 2 to Sept. 1. The change will be phased in one month at a time over three years starting in fall 2012. \"\" This is a victory for kids on two fronts,\"\" said state Sen. Simitian, D-Palo Alto, who authored Senate Bill 1381. \"\" We start kids when they're ready to succeed in school, and for younger children we provide a 'get ready' year of instruction as well. \"\" The estimated $700 million saved by delaying kindergarten for roughly 120,000 children annually will be used to pay for \"\"transitional kindergarten,\"\" a new grade level for children with fall birthdays who will be too young to start regular kindergarten. Parents of children born after Sept. 1 could still apply to have their kids start kindergarten early. Gov. Schwarzenegger signed the Kindergarten Readiness Act despite opposition from some state lawmakers who supported raising the kindergarten age but rejected adding a new grade level when California faces severe financial problems. \"\" We had an opportunity to save $700 million in the general fund, but instead we create a whole new program,\"\" said Sen.

Some school districts place 8th graders at the high school, while others place 9th graders at the junior high school. The decision has little to do with the education, and is generally based upon factors such as which school buildings have enough space to accomodate the students. For example, if the elementary school has too many students, and the middle school has empty classrooms, then the school district might decide to move the fifth graders to the middle school.

Sandra Ivany/Getty Imagesby Blythe Grossberg Updated March 30, 2018Did you know that Forbes.com reports that the Department of Education has awarded almost $250 million in an effort to ensure that development of early education programs, preschool, continue to best serve children from low- and moderate-income families? This is one example of the President's long-standing plan to offer free, universal pre-school for these families. However, President Trump's latest budget for 2019 education appears to be reducing funding for schools. As we know, in President Obama's 2013 State of the Union address he unveiled his plan for universal Pre-K or pre-kindergarten education for four-year-olds. His plan would guarantee kids whose household income is at or below 200% of the poverty line a free pre-K education with local schools and local partners, and their teachers would have the same training as K-12 teachers. In addition, the programs would offer many of the benefits of private school pre-kindergarten programs, including small class sizes, high adult-to-child ratios, and assessment of the programs provided. The program would also expand the number of full-day kindergarten programs available. Unease in Regards to the Future of Early Childhood Education However, despite these advancements, there is unease as a result of the new leadership of our nation coming; many people are unsure about the future of early childhood programs. Betsy De Vos has been chosen by President Donald Trump to take on the role of Education Secretary, and her position on pre-school funding is not clear; the same can be said for the President."

De Noon From the Web MD Archives March 24, 2011 - People age 50 and older can now get Merck's Zostavaxshingles vaccine, the FDA today ruled. The vaccine already was approved for people age 60 and older. The approval is based on a Merck clinical trial that showed the vaccine to be about 70% effective in preventing shingles in the younger age group. The study also found that even when vaccinated 50-somethings did get shingles, they suffered far less pain and far shorter bouts of the painful, sometimes disabling disease. \"\" The likelihood of shingles increases with age. The availability of Zostavax to a younger age group provides an additional opportunity to prevent this often painful and debilitating disease,\"\" Karen Midthun, MD, director of FDA's Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, says in a news release. Shingles -- known to doctors as herpes zoster -- is caused by the same herpes virus that causes chickenpox: varicella zoster. But when chickenpox gets better, the virus doesn't go away. It hides in nerve roots. When reactivated in later years, the virus erupts into extremely painful shingles-like lesions."

"text": "#Health News September 7, 2015 / 2:20 PM / 2 years ago Shingles vaccine not cost effective before age 60Andrew M. Seaman4 Min Read (Reuters Health) - The shingles vaccine might not be cost-effective for people in their fifties, a new analysis suggests. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) does not recommend the shingles vaccine for that age group, and the authors of the new analysis say their findings support that policy. “Even though the vaccine is effective, it may not be cost effective,” lead author Phuc Le of the Cleveland Clinic told Reuters Health. Shingles, or herpes zoster, is a painful, blistering rash caused by the same virus that causes chicken pox. About one million Americans develop shingles each year, Le and colleagues say. Many of them go on to have persistent severe pain known as postherpetic neuralgia, even if they receive treatment with antiviral drugs. The vaccine against shingles is cleared for use among those age 50 and older, but the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) does not recommend the vaccine before age 60. For the new study, reported in Annals of Internal Medicine, the researchers used a computer to estimate the effectiveness of the vaccine in people 50 to 59 years. Overall, they calculated, for every 1,000 people receiving the vaccine at age 50, just 25 shingles cases and one case of shingle-related pain would be prevented. Typically, preventive treatments are considered cost-effective when they cost at most $100,000 per quality-adjusted life-year (QALY), that is, per year of healthy life gained."

"text": "\"Share this: Tweet Share on Tumblr More Shingles (herpes zoster) is no fun. It usually begins with a couple of days of pain, then a painful rash breaks out and lasts a couple of weeks. The rash consists of blisters that eventually break open, crust over, and consolidate into an ugly plaque. It is localized to one side of the body and to a stripe of skin corresponding to the dermatomal distribution of a sensory nerve. Very rarely a shingles infection can lead to pneumonia, hearing problems, blindness, brain inflammation (encephalitis) or death. More commonly, patients develop postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) in the area where the rash was. The overall incidence of PHN is 20%; after the age of 60 this rises to 40%, and after age 70 it rises to 50%. It can be excruciatingly painful, resistant to treatment, and can last for years or even a lifetime. Shingles is caused by the varicella zoster virus, the same virus that causes chickenpox. In fact, you can’t get shingles unless you’ve had chickenpox (or, rarely, chickenpox vaccine)."

After a person has had chickenpox, the varicella-zoster virus can remain inactive in the body for many years. Herpes zoster (shingles) occurs when the virus becomes active again. What illnesses does varicella-zoster cause? Chickenpox first occurs as a blister-like skin rash and fever. It takes from 10-21 days after exposure for someone to develop chickenpox.

Researchers now know that they are both caused by a single virus of the herpes family, known as varicella-zoster virus (VZV). The word herpes is derived from the Greek word \"\"herpein,\"\" which means \"\"to creep,\"\" a reference to a characteristic pattern of skin eruptions. VZV is still referred to by separate terms: Varicella: The primary infection that causes chickenpox Herpes zoster: The reactivation of the virus that causes shingles Varicella (Chickenpox). When patients with chickenpox cough or sneeze, they expel tiny droplets that carry the virus. If a person who has never had chickenpox or never been vaccinated inhales these particles, the virus enters the lungs. From here it passes into the bloodstream. When it is carried to the skin it produces the typical rash of chickenpox. Chickenpox is caused by the varicella-zoster virus, a member of the herpes virus family. The same virus also causes herpes zoster, or shingles, in adults."

Four million people in England will be eligible to receive the jab, as long as ministers can strike a deal with its manufacturer, after a recommendation by government advisers . The illness affects an estimated 250,000 people in the UK every year. Family doctors and specialists working with older people welcomed the move. But a row erupted last night when shingles campaigners demanded that people should be able to receive the jabs as soon as they turn 60. The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) specified that only those in their 70s should be eligible because the burden of the illness is heaviest in that age group. But Marian Nicholson, director of the Shingles Support Society, told the Observer: \"\"I'm disappointed that it's only 70 to 79-year-olds and that you'll have to wait until you are 70 to get this vaccine. It should be available from 60, because your risk of getting shingles rises sharply enough for 60 to be the age at which enough people suffer enough to make it worthwhile. \"\" Guardian Today: the headlines, the analysis, the debate - sent direct to you Read more Dr Ian Donald of the British Geriatrics Society, which represents specialists in medical care for older people, said 70 was the right age at which to start vaccinations because most cases of shingles occur in those in their 70s or 80s. \"\" Pitching it at 70 and upwards is reasonable."

"text": "Shingrix Shingles Vaccine Submitted for FDA Review October 24, 2016Nonlive recombinant vaccine reduces postherpetic neuralgia in phase 3 studies Glaxo Smith Kline (GSK) has submitted a biologics license application for its candidate shingles vaccine Shingrix to the FDA, seeking approval for the prevention of herpes zoster (shingles) in people 50 years of age or over. The nonlive recombinant vaccine is designed to help prevent shingles and its complications. Phase 3 data showed that by reducing the incidence of shingles, the candidate vaccine also reduced the overall incidence of postherpetic neuralgia (PHN), a form of chronic pain associated with shingles. Regulatory approval is being sought for the vaccine to be given intramuscularly in two doses, with a two- to six-month interval between doses. The regulatory submission for Shingrix was based on a comprehensive phase 3 clinical trial program evaluating the vaccine’s efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity in more than 37,000 subjects. This includes the ZOE-50 and ZOE-70 studies, which were published in the New England Journal of Medicine in April 2015 and September 2016, respectively. The candidate vaccine combines glycoprotein E, a protein found on the varicella zoster virus (VZV) that causes shingles, with an adjuvant system, AS01 B, which is intended to enhance the immunologic response to the antigen. GSK intends to register the product as Shingrix, subject to approval by the FDA. Shingles typically presents as a painful, itchy rash that develops on one side of the body as a result of reactivation of latent VZV. Data from many countries indicate that more than 90% of adults have been infected with VZV during childhood."

"text": "\"Harvard Health Letter The shingles vaccine Published: March, 2011Question: If you've had shingles, should you get the vaccine to protect yourself from getting it again? Answer: Shingles is caused by the reactivation of varicella-zoster virus — the virus that causes chickenpox — that has lingered, often for decades, in a dormant state in the nervous system. The most common symptom is a bad rash on the torso or face that can be quite painful. In about 10% to 20% of cases, the rash is followed by postherpetic neuralgia — pain emanating from an affected nerve, which can be excruciating and last for many months. Shingles can also affect the eyes, causing significant pain and, in the most serious cases, loss of vision. It's safe to say that those who have had shingles don't want to have it again — especially if they've had postherpetic neuralgia or eye problems as a result. But is a second case of shingles something we need to worry about, or does the first one give immunity against a repeat episode? And if it doesn't, does that mean that people who have had shingles should get the shingles vaccine? When the FDA approved the shingles vaccine (sold under the brand name Zostavax) in 2006, the agency posted a question-and-answer piece — which is still on its Web site — that says an episode of shingles boosts immunity to the varicella-zoster virus, so people who have had shingles are unlikely to have a second case. The same piece notes that the effectiveness of Zostavax in preventing repeat episodes of shingles \"\"has not been demonstrated in clinical studies.\"\""

Fogoros, MDUpdated June 23, 2017Share Pin Email Print Learn about Shingles. Getty Images Credit: Maria Fuchs If you had chicken pox (varicella) as a child, then you are at risk for contracting shingles as an adult. Most of us think, incorrectly, that it's the other way around—that you can only get shingles if you didn't have chicken pox. Since most of us over the age of 20 had chicken pox as children, that means that most people reading this article are at risk of developing shingles. What Is Shingles? Shingles is a virus. Its Latin name is herpes zoster (not the same as genital herpes or the mouth sores we also call herpes). It is a painful inflammation of the nerves and a painful, red, inflamed rash on one's skin. Its symptoms may include the rash, plus fever, headache, chills and sometimes stomach upset. The rash itself is the very telltale sign that makes diagnosis fairly easy."

"text": "Shingles is a viral infection that follows a varicella-zoster infection, although it can take decades for symptoms of the secondary disease to emerge. The condition presents as a painful and blistering rash, but it is not life-threatening. According to the Center for Disease Control, there are nearly one million cases in the United States each year, and almost half of those cases are in older adults over age 60. Some people only see one instance of the illness, while others have recurring symptoms, but 30 percent of Americans will develop shingles at some point in their lifetime. Duration of Shingles: Timeline of the Virus The timeline of shingles is consistent once symptoms begin, but many people may have the condition for years without realizing it. Internal shingles can take decades to present itself, while many people never show symptoms at all. If you’re asking yourself, “how long does shingles last,” it can be different for each person, but below is a general progression. Itching, Pain, or Tingling Before any irritation appears, the site may first itch or tingle, or even feel painful. These sensations start to happen between one and five days before redness or itching begins. Many people may not recognize these symptoms, particularly if they have a mild case of shingles."

Pharmaceutical manufacturer bio CSL has released the first batch of the American-made vaccine Zostavax on the Australian market, allowing adults aged 50 years or more to be vaccinated against the reactivation of the varicella-zoster virus, which causes shingles and can lead to post-herpetic neuralgia. But the protection comes with a hefty price tag, with a single dose of the vaccine costing up to $250. While Zostavax has been approved by the Therapeutic Goods Administration for use by people aged 50 years or older, it is yet to be assessed by the Pharmaceutical Benefits Advisory Committee for inclusion in the National Immunisation Program or on the Pharmaceutical Benefits Schedule. The vaccine is indicated for the prevention of shingles in those aged between 50 and 59 years, and in the prevention of shingles and post-herpetic neuralgia and the reduction of acute and chronic zoster-associated pain in those aged 60 years or older. A spokeswoman for bio CSL, which is distributing Zostavax in Australia under license from the American manufacturer Merck, said the company was “reasonably early” in the process of having the vaccine registered on the PBS. A submission on the product is being prepared for the PBAC, but the committee is not expected to review the application until March next year. Meanwhile, those seeking protection from shingles are advised to see a doctor to arrange a private prescription. According to bio CSL, the vaccine is now widely available.bio CSL said shingles was a common yet incurable condition that would be experienced by one in every two adults by the time they were 85 years. The risk and severity of the condition increases markedly with age."

Shingles is a painful rash that’s caused by varicella zoster, the same virus that’s responsible for chickenpox. If you had chickenpox as a child, the virus hasn’t completely gone away. It hides dormant in your body and can reemerge many years later as shingles. There are about 1 million cases of shingles each year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). About half of these cases occur among people over the age of 60. Who should get the vaccine Who should get the vaccine?

"text": "How to Maximize Social Security Benefits – Withdrawal Options & Benefits By Michael Lewis Posted in: Retirement Share Tweet 30 Pin Comments In 2004, Social Security benefits were projected to account for 40% of a baby boomer’s post-retirement family income, and almost all baby boomer retirees were expected to receive benefits, according to a Social Security Administration study. But Dean Baker, co-director of the Center for Economic and Policy Research, thinks those projections were conservative. Today, according to Baker, Social Security payments account for 90% of income for one-third of all seniors and more than 50% for two-thirds of them. For unmarried seniors, the dependence upon Social Security is even greater, accounting for almost three-quarters of their income. As pensions become increasingly rare – replaced by defined contribution plans, which are subject to the volatility of financial markets – the importance of Social Security continues to grow. In fact, the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association claims that Social Security is now the “most prevalent and important single source of income for retirees. ”Social Security Monthly Dollar Retirement Benefits Generally speaking, the amount of Social Security you receive is based upon your total lifetime earnings that were subject to Social Security taxes – as of 2014, maximum taxable earnings stand at $117,000 per year. In other words, the more money you make over an extended period, the more you receive when you begin withdrawing. The specific dollar benefit paid to a beneficiary is the result of an SSA calculation, based upon that person’s top 35 years of earnings, adjusted for inflation. It is further affected by the age at which you begin receiving benefits."

This is one of the many reasons why people should never carry their Social Security cards in their wallets or purses. From the time of issuance when we're children, Social Security cards should be stored in a safe location at home, away from credit cards, drivers' licenses, and other personal information. If you suspect that a criminal has your Social Security number, the Social Security Administration can help point you in the right direction, but it can't fix your credit. You're the only one who can do that. To that end, here are some things to do if someone is using your Social Security number to commit identity theft and Social Security fraud:1. Stay cool and focused. While identity theft is stressful, you're the only person who can help with this problem, and you can't solve it in a week or a month. It will take time.

The most important advice is to access the Social Security website and get their most current official guidance on how to apply:http://www.ssa.gov/retire2/applying8.htm Note that you can apply online, by phone, or in person, and that you should apply for benefits no more than four months before the date you want your benefits to start. Our software calculates the maximized filing strategy for you based on your earnings history and your status as married, single, widowed, disabled, etc. As you apply for those benefits, be sure to use your entitlement month, i.e. the month you start earning Social Security benefits, on your application. These are the same as the filing dates, you enter on the What-If Dates screen. Since Social Security pays benefits one month in arrears, you will receive your check one month after the entitlement month. For example, if our software calculates that you file for retirement benefits in December 2020, you will receive your first retirement benefit check in January 2021. Be careful to start your entitlement neither too early nor too late. Social Security encourages you to apply 3 to 4 months before you want to start your entitlement. So in the above example, if you apply in September 2020, be sure to establish your entitlement month as December 2020."

"text": "If you’ve recently welcomed a new puppy or dog into your life, you might have questions about having your pet spayed or neutered. Below are answers to some of the questions many people have about these common surgeries for dogs. What is the difference between spay and neuter? Spaying. A “spay,” or ovariohysterectomy, is a veterinary surgical procedure performed under general anesthesia. It involves removal of the female dog’s uterus and both ovaries through an incision made in the abdomen. A spay can also be performed laparascopically (usually with ovariectomies). Neutering. Neutering, or castration, is the surgical removal of the male dog’s testes. Also performed under general anesthesia, it is a simpler surgery than a spay."

With a female spaying refers to when the dog’s uterus and the ovaries are surgically removed. For the male, neutering means that the testicles are surgically removed. It is a common belief that this is only done to stop dogs from mating. While this is one of the end results, there are also other important ways in which this will help your Yorkshire Terrier live a healthier and longer life. Benefits of Spaying a Female Yorkie:• Stops the chance of her of getting pregnant. Without proper pre-pregnancy testing (including measuring pelvic width), carrying a litter and giving birth can be exceedingly stressful and even dangerous for a dog. And since dogs do not enter the human equivalent of menopause, females of any age can get accidentally pregnant .• Eliminates her chances of developing ovarian cancer and greatly reduces her chances for developing mammary cancer. This will also decrease her odds of developing ovarian infections. The younger she is when being spayed, the better the chances.• Cuts down on urges to run away when in heat (some females will actively pursue males)• Stops possible hormone related mood swings• Helps with marking issues (90% of the time if a female is spayed before the first heat); keep in mind that territorial females mark just as males do."

What’s the right age to have a kitten spayed or neutered? A: In the past few years, there’s been a push, especially at animal shelters and humane societies, to spay or neuter kittens at an early age. This is because if a kitten is adopted out to a home at the age of 8 or 9 weeks, a significant percentage of the adopters fail to spay or neuter their cat, even if the adoption fee includes a free spay and neuter. Or if they do, it may be after their male cat has gotten out and impregnated a female, or after their female cat has gotten pregnant and given birth to kittens. Shelters can’t wait until kittens are six months old before neutering and spaying."

Large breeds should be spayed when they are a bit older because their growth cycle is not as same as for smaller breeds. for a large breed puppy you could wait until she is about a year old. ( or sometimes more for larger breeds) I have been doing a lot of research on the subject, and although i will definitely spay by female i will wait until 18 month, Here are some interesting articles i came across, also talk to your vet and do some research on studies of spayed females that were spayed before fully grown quote\"\" Although, nowadays, it’s quite commonly accepted to spay or neuter a dog, preferable at a young age (6 to 7 months), there are indications that one should be careful and critical before making such a irreversible decision. This is especially the case when the dog hasn’t finished growing yet. A dog’s growth is for an important part influenced by its re-productive hormones. Taking away the internal re-productive organs at a young age, before the dog is fully grown, causes an extended bone-growth period, making the bones longer and thinner, with as a result an increased chance on skeleton problems. It also can lead to relatively under-developed external re-productive organs, such as the vulva and the penis, with an increased chance on infections of the skin around these parts. Further, extended research found an increase in incontinence under the early spayed females which is, most probably, the case in males as well."

The Correct or Ideal Age The Cat Health Guide recommends having female kittens spayed by the time they are 6 months old. The Cat Care Clinic of Orange County, California, says kittens can be spayed at 8 weeks but recommends waiting until 4 months to 6 months of age. Nevertheless, kittens can be spayed as young as 6 weeks. Kittens who are adopted from shelters are frequently spayed at this age with no complications. So the ideal age for spaying kittens is between 6 weeks and 6 months old. Advantages of Spaying at an Early Age The general rule of thumb is that it is better to have kittens spayed early in life."

"text": "Many kittens get spayed before reaching their first heat cycles. If you own a female cat, you're likely aware of spaying's benefits, from preventing the lady kitty from becoming pregnant to reducing pesky urine spraying behaviors. Pediatric spaying -- getting a cat fixed before sexual maturity -- has some advantages over spaying in adulthood. Think minimizing breast cancer risk. Early Spaying For an era, the youngest age a kitten could be spayed was generally accepted to be around 6 months. But that's changed in recent years: The ASPCA says spaying procedures in clinics and hospitals are routinely conducted on female kittens as young as 6 to 8 weeks old -- well before the onset of the first heat cycle, which doesn't usually occur in cats until age 4 months at the earliest. Weight Kittens are generally eligible for spaying once they hit 6 weeks of age as long as they weigh enough. Female kittens must weigh a minimum of 2 pounds in order to get fixed. Make sure your cat is the appropriate weight before she undergoes the procedure. Health Benefits The ASPCA says benefits exist to spaying a kitten well before she goes into her first estrus."

"text": "Answer by Spayneuter Confidence votes 76It depends on your veterinarian's training. Dogs recover more quickly and experience less pain when they are between 8 weeks and 5 months old. However, not all veterinarians are trained to perform surgery on young dogs. If you can't find a good veterinarian trained to spay a young dog, have her spayed at 6 months or as close after that as possible. If she is spayed before her first heat, she will reap many more health advantages than if she experiences even one heat cycle. The neuter surgery should be done when the dog is young and healthy, usually between 5 and 8 months old. In the female, ideally before the first heat. Also, be sure to not get her spayed too early, some vets will say it can be done as early as two or three months. This can lead to bladder problems for life (i.e. fallen bladder, frequent urination and difficulty controlling bladder). Trust me, it's not fun!"

"text": "State Summary Report Mandatory Spay/Neuter Laws Updated April 2018This is a summary of state laws addressing spay and neuter of animals. While a number of states have proposed mandatory spay/neuter laws, there are currently no state laws requiring all pet owners to sterilize their animals. Rhode Island, however, has adopted legislation which requires all cats to be spayed or neutered unless (1) the caretaker has a breeding permit, (2) the cat has been adopted and the caretakers will be sterilizing the cat pursuant to an agreement with the adopting agency, or (3) due to the animal's health, a veterinarian states that it would be inappropriate. The inability of state legislatures to pass mandatory spay/neuter legislation has not precluded city and other local governments from proposing and adopting mandatory spay/neuter ordinances. On Feb. 26, 2008, Los Angeles County signed one of the nation's toughest laws on pet sterilization, requiring most dogs and cats to be spayed or neutered by the time they are 4 months old. The ordinance is aimed at reducing and eventually eliminating the thousands of euthanizations conducted in Los Angeles' animal shelters every year. The ordinance does exempt certain animals, including those that have competed in shows or sporting competitions, guide dogs, animals used by police agencies, and those belonging to professional breeders. The average pet owner, however, must have his or her dog or cat spayed or neutered by the time it reaches 4 months of age (or as late as 6 months with a letter from a veterinarian). Owners with older unneutered pets and newcomers to the city with animals will also be required to comply with the ordinance. In Los Angeles, first-time offenders will receive information on subsidized sterilization services and be given an additional 60 days to comply."

My wild guess would be anywhere between $45 and $350. I have heard so many low prices for things that require anesthesia, that $45 seems real low to me. Where I live Vets are $45 minimum for an office visit without anything being done at all. I probably could find one here at around 150 but add to that the office exam and you are into 200 range. I do have a suggestion, if the hernia is not large you could opt to have teeth cleaned or whatever at the same time and wait a while. It depends on the hernia. I know they say that it is possible to strangulate the digestive track through a hernia but in 45 years I have never seen it happen, and I have seen females whelp who have had average sized hernias."

Over 10 million dogs and cats in the United States alone are being put to death by euthanasia each year in animal shelters because there are no homes for them. And, the great majority of these animals are perfectly healthy, friendly and young. Because of this, great care should be taken to prevent pets from unplanned breeding, or breeding without homes available and waiting for the babies. The best solution to this problem is to spay your female pets and neuter your male pets. There are additional benefits to the pet owner for having this procedure performed on their pets: these benefits include the pet having, for the most part, a longer and healthier life; improved behavior and more responsiveness to their human family; increased safety as spayed and neutered pets are less likely to want to roam the streets outside and become injured or lost in search of a mate; no unwanted kittens; less tendency of the spayed or neutered pet to \"\"mark\"\" or damage household furnishings, and a marked decrease in many medical problems such as mammary cancers and uterine infections which are fairly common in unaltered cats. Simply put, spaying or neutering removes an animal's ability to reproduce. Spaying of females involves removing the female's uterus and ovaries surgically. Neutering involves the surgical removal of the male's testicles."

"text": "Even young kittens can be spayed. While you can have your kitty spayed at any age, the best time to do so is before she goes into heat for the first time. This will prevent not only any unwanted litters but also some possible health issues for your little girl later in life. Reaching Maturity Typically, your furry companion will become mature when she reaches 5 to 8 months old, according to the Feline Advisory Bureau. At this point, your kitten can have kittens of her own, leading to a number of unwanted little babies for you to deal with. Once she goes into her first estrus or heat cycle, she'll remain in heat for 21 to 30 days, according to the University of California Davis School of Veterinary Medicine. During this time, she won't be able to have a spay surgery because of the medical risks involved, and you'll have to wait until she's out of estrus. When to Spay To prevent your little one from going into heat, ideally she should be spayed prior to or right around 5 months of age. The youngest a kitty should be before she's spayed is 8 weeks old. Little ones this young need to be at least 2.2 pounds before surgery, recommends the Ohio Alleycat Resource."

"text": "by David F. Kramer Spaying or neutering your pet is one of the cornerstones of pet ownership in the United States. ASPCA statistics place the U. S. pet cat population at anywhere between 74 and 96 million – and there may be as many as 70 million strays fending for themselves. Unfortunately, the ASPCA also estimates that 41 percent of cats who enter shelters (most of who come in as strays) cannot find a home and end up being euthanized. Breeders, shelters and rescue groups team up with vets and their staff to stem the tide of cat overpopulation – but it’s bound to be a continuing battle for the foreseeable future. If you find yourself with a new kitten in your household, spaying or neutering is something you’ll need to be thinking about soon. But at what age is it appropriate to spay or neuter a cat? More importantly, why should you consider having the procedure done at all? When to Spay or Neuter Your Cat There is debate among veterinarians about the time to spay/neuter your cat, says Dr. Adam Denish of Rhawnhurst Animal Hospital in Elkins Park, PA. There are three general options: Early or pediatric spay/neuter is done at six to eight weeks of age. Standard spay and neuter at five to six months."

"text": "Spaying and neutering are terms used to indicate sterilization of pet animals. Spaying is the process of removing a female dog’s uterus and ovaries while neutering is performed on male dogs to remove his testicles. The thought of undergoing surgery may make many of us cringe while considering spaying/ neutering our dog. Also, the thought of not allowing the dog to experience having puppies or allowing mating make us stay away from going ahead. Therefore the question that comes to the mind is that whether spaying/neutering is necessary and if so, how beneficial is it. Benefits of spaying Spaying avoids your dog from having puppies that may end up as strays on the streets and adding to the high population of strays that are already present. This is one of the biggest advantages of the procedure if you are not interested in allowing your dog to breed. Spaying when performed early reduces the risk of many cancers and the chances of uterine infections that can occur later in life. It avoids mood swings that your dog can show when she is in estrous (heat). Benefits of neutering Neutering reduces the chances of your dog increasing the population of strays by avoiding mating unknown to you."

When a male Chihuahua is neutered, this will be a procedure in which their testicles are removed. The sac that holds the testicles will remain; the \"\"insides\"\" of the sac will be removed. There is usually swelling when this is first done, so a dog owner may not see much of a difference, as the sacs are swollen and still look full.

This age requirement contradicts what I’ve heard. Is my veterinarian behind the times? A: In short, yes. Traditionally, veterinarians have waited until cats are at least 6 months old before neutering them. But research shows that healthy kittens can be safely neutered at 6 weeks, or as soon as they weigh 2 pounds. Referred to as early-age, pediatric, or pre-pubertal spay/neuter, the procedure eliminates any chance of an “oops litter” since female cats can become pregnant as young as 4 months of age."

"text": "When to Spay/Neuter? Most veterinarians recommend altering a pet before the onset of sexual maturity and in fact, the practice of early age spay/ neuter, which was endorsed by the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) in 2006, generally refers to dogs or cats which are at least two pounds and/ or two months of age at the time they are altered. While there is a great deal of research on the benefits of early age sterilization to the animal itself, the overwhelming reason to get your pet spayed today is to prevent the births of unwanted kittens and puppies which remain homeless and are put down in animal shelters. It’s easy for just one litter to turn into a tragedy. According to a Massachusetts study (A. Rowan), over 80% of cats were altered AFTER they had a first litter. By eliminating accidental first litters, the births of over two million kittens could be prevented in the US each year. That’s not too far from the numbers which enter animal shelters nationwide!According to research on early age sterilization, the young animals recover from surgery more quickly than do older ones, they experience less blood loss and far fewer post operative complications than do adult dogs and cats. Additionally, altering animals before the onset of breeding related behaviors (marking, etc), usually prevents these behaviors from starting (it’s easier to avoid problem behaviors than to cure them afterward), a fact which makes the animal into a better ‘citizen’ in their home while keeping unwanted litters from entering the shelter. There is no reason for a shelter or rescue organization to have a policy of releasing unaltered dogs and cats to the public. Importantly, spaying a dog or cat before the first estrus cycle prevents mammary tumors in over 99% of all dogs and 95% of cats."

"text": "\"That cuddly kitten can have kittens of her own at puberty. When little kitties reach puberty -- as early as 4 to 6 months of age -- they'll be able to reproduce, and they'll possibly begin some unpleasant behaviors, too. To avoid either issue, you can have your little one neutered or spayed as early as 6 to 8 weeks old. Maturity Once a kitten reaches sexual maturity, usually between 4 and 6 months of age, he is able to produce offspring. This means that your little girl kitten could be giving birth to little kittens well before she's 1 year old. Your kitten's behavior will also change once he or she hits puberty: Male kitties begin to spray smelly urine to mark their territory, and females yowl when in heat. Both males and females have a strong desire to mate and will try any method of escape they can to get outside and find a prospective partner. While it's never too late to fix a cat, you'll circumvent mating behaviors by having your little guy surgically altered before he reaches 6 months old. Same goes if your little guy's a girl. Early Spay or Neuter While you can have a kitten fixed as young as 6 weeks old, the procedure is usually performed when your little one reaches 8 to 12 weeks of age."

De Franzo October 24, 2011When designing your questionnaire you will include survey demographic questions to serve as break variables, so that differences in responses between groups can be identified. Demographic Survey questions include: Age related questions Gender identification Ethnic Origin Postal Code Advertising and content targeting depends on these types of questions. Customer survey questionnaires heavily depend on demographic questions. If your questionnaire results tell you that 65% of your respondents are Males in the 25 to 39 age group, your advertising would focus on that age and gender group as they would make up a large portion of your customer base. Demographic Questions can be open or closed as seen in these examples: OPENCLOSEDIf you select closed questions, you must decide how to break up your categories: ORYour categories need to be broken up into divisions that make sense for your research. You do not want unbalanced categories that would distort your survey findings. The charts below show the information from the more segmented, second closed question, above. As you can see the chart below with more age breaks is more detailed and accurate. If you had used the first question to build your chart, you would have many fewer “older age” brackets.

Ten questions were posed to 1,015 adults, revealing gaps in America’s nutrition knowledge, including these five surprises: Five Nutrition Information Gaps Nutrition Topic Survey Findings Cholesterol Only 7 percent were aware that an egg has more cholesterol than a Big Mac. Calories Only 7 percent of individuals in households with children ages 13 to 17 knew that skim milk and Coca-Cola have about the same number of calories. Fat Only 18 percent knew that 70 percent of the calories in cheese come from fat. Calcium Only 22 percent were aware that beans, broccoli, and milk are all high in calcium. Fiber Only 36 percent realized that fish and beef have the same amount of fiber. There is no fiber in animal products. Background Nutrition-related diseases kill millions of Americans every year, and a major cause of these epidemics is that many consumers do not know enough about the role that foods play in health. About two-thirds of adults and one-third of children and adolescents are overweight. Obesity raises the risk of many leading causes of death, including heart disease, cancer, and diabetes, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)."

"text": "US Navy Hydrography Is Back! - 01/01/2008Lieutenant Commander Brian D. Connon, US Navy, USAThe US Navy has a strong tradition in hydrography and has restated its commitment to this field by naming the Commander of the Naval Meteorology and Oceanography Command as the ‘Hydrographer of the Navy’. This was the culmination of significant focus and effort during the past decade by the US Navy’s meteorology and oceanography (METOC) community to improve not just hydrography, but all forms of environmental data collection. During the Cold War, METOC resources were concentrated on deep-water operations; hydrographic expertise, especially among Naval officers, was not maintained at a sufficient level to support the current naval doctrine of littoral warfare. New multi-purpose survey vessels, major investments in multibeam and LIDAR technology, enhanced education opportunities, and a focus on littoral warfare have resulted in a reinvigoration of hydrography and navigation. US Navy hydrography has travelled a long way to meet the needs of the Fleet. The Navy’s proud tradition of professional surveying established by Commander Matthew F. Maury, Rear Admiral Charles Wilkes, Rear Admiral Robert Wyman and others, will now be maintained by a new generation of Naval hydrographers. History In 1830, the Depot of Charts and Instruments was founded to provide storage and maintenance of nautical books, charts and instruments. The organisation evolved into the Navy Hydrographic Office in 1866 with a primary mission of ‘…the improvement of the means of navigating safely the vessels of the Navy and merchant marine, by providing accurate and cheap nautical charts, sailing directions and manuals of instruction for the use of all vessels of the United States’. From 1870 to 1961, a uniformed Hydrographer of the Navy was in place to ensure safe navigation of the fleet."

Social Security Published: 2010-08-11 : Author: AARPSynopsis: 85% oppose cutting Social Security to reduce the deficit as program celebrates 75th anniversary. Main Document AARP Survey: Americans of All Ages Plan to Rely on Social Security - 85% oppose cutting Social Security to reduce the deficit as program celebrates 75th anniversary. With the 75th anniversary of Social Security approaching, AARP released a new survey report that shows that three in four (76%) adults age 18+ rely on or plan to rely on Social Security for their retirement income, including a large majority (62%) of younger adults age 18-29. The survey also showed a strong majority of those polled oppose reducing Social Security benefits for deficit reduction (85%), and a majority of those under age 50 support the infusion of additional revenues into the system to provide the same level of benefits in the future (57%). Changes to Program Should Strengthen for Long Term, Not Reduce Deficit The AARP survey found that regardless of age, 85% of adults oppose cutting Social Security to reduce the federal deficit, with more than seven out of ten (72%) strongly opposing it. However, many support other changes to keep the program strong for future retirees. Over three-quarters (76%) of non-retired adults are worried that they may not have enough money to live on in retirement. To that end, 50% of non-retired adults are willing to pay more now in payroll taxes to ensure Social Security will be there for them when they retire, a finding that has remained consistent over time. Over half (57%) of adults under age 50 would prefer to pay more into Social Security so they can get the same level of benefits provided today as opposed to keeping payroll tax rates at current levels in exchange for lower benefits. Eight in ten Americans 18+ (81%) believe the government made a commitment to Americans about Social Security being there for them when they retire, and that the government cannot break its promise."

The latest statistics from the Home Office Crime Survey for England and Wales 2015/16 suggest that among people aged 16-59, use of most drugs has been decreasing for several years, and is around the lowest since measurements began in 1996. The key findings were: Around 1 in 12 (8.4%) of adults aged 16 to 59 had taken a drug in the last year. This is around 2.7 million people. This level of drug use is similar to the 2014/15 survey (8.6%), but significantly lower than a decade ago (10.5% in the 2005/06 survey). Over one-third (35.0%) of adults aged 16 to 59 had taken drugs at some point during their lifetime. As in previous years, cannabis was the most commonly used drug, with 6.5% of adults aged 16 to 59 having used it in the last year (around 2.1 million people)Among younger adults aged 16 to 24, cannabis was also the most commonly used drug, with 15.8% having used it in the last year (around 975,000 young adults). As in recent years, the next most commonly used drug after cannabis among adults aged 16 to 59 was powder cocaine (2.2% in the 2015/16 survey, equating to around 725,000 people). By contrast, powder cocaine is the third most commonly used drug among young adults aged 16 to 24 (4.4% or 274,000 young adults) after cannabis and ecstasy."

S. population. Prevalences of lifetime drug abuse and dependence were estimated for each year of age of onset of drug use from ages 13 and younger to 21 and older for the overall sample of drug users by race and gender. Linear logistic analyses were conducted to assess the relationship between age of drug use onset and lifetime drug use disorders controlling for important covariates. The major finding of this study was that early onset drug use is a significant predictor of the subsequent development of drug abuse over the life course. Early onset drug use was also a significant predictor of the subsequent development of lifetime alcohol dependence among males, females, and nonblacks, but not among blacks. After adjusting for important model covariates, the likelihood of lifetime drug abuse and dependence among the total sample of lifetime drug users was reduced by 4% and 5% with each year drug use onset was delayed. Implications of these findings are discussed in terms of the importance of collecting national data on drug use, abuse and dependence and the need for further research and its integration with prevention efforts.

Now ranging in age from 18 to 33 1 , they are relatively unattached to organized politics and religion, linked by social media, burdened by debt, distrustful of people, in no rush to marry— and optimistic about the future. They are also America’s most racially diverse generation. In all of these dimensions, they are different from today’s older generations. And in many, they are also different from older adults back when they were the age Millennials are now. Pew Research Center surveys show that half of Millennials (50%) now describe themselves as political independents and about three-in-ten (29%) say they are not affiliated with any religion. These are at or near the highest levels of political and religious disaffiliation recorded for any generation in the quarter-century that the Pew Research Center has been polling on these topics. At the same time, however, Millennials stand out for voting heavily Democratic and for liberal views on many political and social issues, ranging from a belief in an activist government to support for same-sex marriage and marijuana legalization. ( For more on these views, see Chapters 1 and 2. ) These findings are based on a new Pew Research Center survey conducted Feb. 14-23, 2014 among 1,821 adults nationwide, including 617 Millennial adults, and analysis of other Pew Research Center surveys conducted between 1990 and 2014."

Sex No alternative methods are in regular use for classifying sex other than: Male Female No significant difficulties are found in applying these categories. Marital Status Comprehensive classification categories are: Single Married Widowed Divorced Separated The convention is to add widowed, divorced, and separated together, and on surveys where the sample is small or the issue is not crucial, to combine this group with ‘single.’ This is because on most branded goods, their product purchasing behaviour is likely to be nearer to single than to married people."

This research was supported by grant R37–AA–07861 from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism. National surveys of adolescents, college students, and other young adults in the United States reveal high rates of alcohol use among these age groups as well as high rates of dangerous drinking practices such as binge drinking and daily drinking. Additional health–compromising behaviors such as tobacco use and drinking and driving often co–occur with alcohol use in these populations. The physical locations or drinking contexts where alcohol use occurs can predict drinking practices and consequences. This information can be used to identify appropriate targets for effective interventions and social policies. Key words: adolescent; young adult; high school student; undergraduate student; high–risk youth; AOD (alcohol and other drug) use; prevalence; epidemiological indicators; AOD associated consequences; risk–taking behavior; gender differences; United States Alcohol use during adolescence and young adulthood remains a prominent public health problem in the United States.

This chapter explores the increasingly large number of children and young adults who have computers and online access, where they get access outside the home, and how they use the Internet. � We focus on children in lower elementary school (ages 5-9), later elementary and junior high school (ages 10-13), and high school (ages 14-17), as well as young adults (ages 18-24). � This year�s survey also asked parents about concerns about exposing children to online content, and whether that has affected their decisions to go online or to maintain Internet access. �Computer and Internet Use As noted in Chapter 2, children and young adults under 25 are significant users of new information technologies. � By the age of 10, young people are more likely to use the Internet than adults at any age beyond 25. � The high rate of use among children and young adults is reflected in higher rates of Internet connectivity within family households with children, as well as in high use rates among these age groups both at home and outside the home. Family households with children under age 18 are far more likely to have computers than families without children: 70.1 percent, compared to 58.8 percent. � They are also more likely to have Internet subscriptions: 62.2 percent versus 53.2 percent."

Too often, meeting the financial demands of today means delaying, diminishing or simply never starting to save for tomorrow. “There are plenty of obstacles Americans claim are in their way when it comes to saving for retirement: credit card debt, student loan debt, low wages, the need to save for a child’s college education, and the list goes on,” said Cameron Huddleston, Life + Money columnist for Go Banking Rates. “ Although all of these things can put a strain on our budgets, they don’t necessarily make it impossible to save for retirement. ”Go Banking Rates asked Americans how much money they have saved for retirement and found that most people are behind on their retirement savings. These survey findings also provide a helpful benchmark against which readers can compare their own retirement savings balances and progress. Survey: How Much Americans Have Saved for Retirement The Go Banking Rates survey was conducted as three Google Consumer Surveys, each targeted at one of three age groups: millennials, Generation Xers, and baby boomers and seniors. Each age group was asked the same question, “By your best estimate, how much money do you have saved for retirement?” Respondents could select one of the options as displayed below: Less than $10K$10K to $49K$50K to $99K$100K to $199K$200 to $299K$300K or more I don’t have retirement savings. Go Banking Rates analyzed the survey results to reveal key insights into how Americans of all ages are saving for retirement."

M, and Samantha King, MADepartment of Human and Community Development, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, for the Illinois Department of Human Services Executive Summary High quality child care improves children's experiences and developmental outcomes and also contributes to a prepared, productive and stable current and future workforce. Practitioners who work in child care settings are responsible for the quality of care and early education provided to children and their families. The Illinois Department of Human Services (IDHS) is mandated by legislative rule 20 ILCS 505/5.15, to conduct a survey of the workforce in licensed child care facilities every two years. The entire bill is located on the Illinois General Assembly website: (http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/ilcs/ilcs3.asp? Act ID=242&Champter ID=5). The survey summarized in this report meets that mandate by documenting the following: (1) the number of qualified caregivers attracted to vacant positions and any problems encountered by facilities in attracting and retaining capable caregivers, (2) the qualifications of new caregivers hired at licensed child care facilities during the previous 2-year period, and (3) the average wages and salaries and fringe benefits paid to caregivers throughout the State computed on a regional basis. Collection of survey data begins with list of 13,522 licensed child care programs in Illinois (3183 licensed child care centers and 10,339 licensed day care homes) obtained through the Illinois Network of Child Care Resource and Referral Agencies (INCCRRA). On April 15, 2011, all providers were sent a request to participate in the survey. The survey was available in two formats: on-line and as a paper-and-pencil document."

"text": "\"US Military Careers Joining the Military Waivers for Joining the Military Enlistment Waivers for Disqualifying Issues Share Flip Pin Share Email•••By Stew Smith Updated July 02, 2017Waivers for entrance into the military are available, but they are not easy to obtain. First, there is a long list of reasons why there are disqualification for certain things ranging from illegal activity, medical ailment, color blindness, and even age. In my time as a military member, I have known people who received waivers for a variety of reasons. Getting approval for a disqualifying issue is easier said than done and you will need a recruiter who knows how the process works as well as one willing to invest his time and efforts into you as a future member of the military. Regardless, once the recruiter agrees to put in a request for a waiver, the chain of command will have to approve it. The more serious the waiver - the higher up the chain of command must approve thus the longer approval will take. The most common waivers like eye vision laser surgery has a process that is easy to follow. The more difficult issues like serious medical conditions (cancer, major surgeries) and criminal activity can be waived but there is usually a strict timeline and many hurdles to climb to accomplish waivers in these areas. Most Common Approved and Disapproved Waivers There are several common waivers people apply for. Some are almost guaranteed depending upon the job (MOS / rating), some are almost always denied."

The Chief of Staff of the Army is an administrative position based in the Pentagon.

"text": "By —Lolita C. Baldor, Associated Press0 comments Share Pentagon chief considers relaxing age restrictions for military enlistment Politics Mar 30, 2015 12:17 PM EDTABINGTON, Pa. — Saying the military needs to do more to compete with corporate America for quality recruits, Defense Secretary Ashton Carter opened the door Monday to relaxing some enlistment standards — particularly for high-tech or cyber security jobs. Speaking to students at his former suburban Philadelphia high school, Carter said the military could ease age requirements and bring in older people who are mid-career, or provide student loan repayments to attract students who have finished college. There are few details so far, but Carter said the military needs to be more flexible in order to recruit and retain quality people. The idea, largely in line with the civilian approach to recruitment, upends the military’s more rigid mindset, which puts a high value on certain standards. It reignites a persistent debate about how the services approve waivers for recruits who have committed lesser crimes, behaved badly, are older than current regulations allow or have other physical issues that prevent them from joining the military. According to Pentagon documents and officials, Carter sees recruitment and retention as major challenges to a military coming out of two wars and facing turmoil around the world. Specifically, the Pentagon pointed to cyber jobs as an area where standards — such as age or minor drug offenses — could be relaxed. Military leaders have long complained that it is difficult to attract and keep cyber professionals in the services because they can make far more money in private industry. This is not the first time, however, that the services have looked to reduced restrictions as a way to entice more recruits. During 2006-2007, the military steadily increased the number of bad behavior waivers as the services — particularly the Army and Marine Corps — struggled to meet deployment demands in Iraq and Afghanistan."

[ 5] Conscription dates back to antiquity and continues in some countries to the present day under various names. The modern system of near-universal national conscription for young men dates to the French Revolution in the 1790s, where it became the basis of a very large and powerful military. Most European nations later copied the system in peacetime, so that men at a certain age would serve 1–8 years on active duty and then transfer to the reserve force. Conscription is controversial for a range of reasons, including conscientious objection to military engagements on religious or philosophical grounds; political objection, for example to service for a disliked government or unpopular war; and ideological objection, for example, to a perceived violation of individual rights. Those conscripted may evade service, sometimes by leaving the country, [6] and seeking asylum in another country. Some selection systems accommodate these attitudes by providing alternative service outside combat -operations roles or even outside the military, such as 'Siviilipalvelus' (alternative civil service) in Finland, Zivildienst (compulsory community service) in Austria and Switzerland. Most post-Soviet countries conscript soldiers not only for armed forces but also for paramilitary organizations which are dedicated to police -like domestic only service ( Internal Troops) or non- combatrescue duties ( Civil defence troops) – none of which is considered alternative to the military conscription."

S. military, active and retired. Stockman, indeede, might not have been judicious in his choice of language, but it appears that he is on target if what he means is that U.

The Pentagon will spend $18.3 billion next year to provide military pensions that are at least twice as generous as the best private sector retirement plans. The typical nondisabled military retiree receives an annuity of $13, 2 26 which is fully indexed for inflation. Since the average retiree begins collecting these payments at age 43, he has plenty of opportunity to supplement them with second career private earnings and, eventually, Social Security benefits and even a second p ension."

SUMMARYConnecticut ' s income tax excludes (1) 75% or 100% of federally taxable Social Security income, depending on the taxpayer ' s federal adjusted gross income (AGI); (2) 100% of railroad retirement benefits; and (3) starting with the 2008 tax year, 50% of federally taxable military retirement benefits. Connecticut has no exemptions for other types of pension income. According to a 2007 survey by the National Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL), of the 41 states with personal income taxes, all but four (Minnesota, Nebraska, Rhode Island, and Vermont) have at least one state income tax exemption for some pension and retirement income. The most common exemptions are for Social Security and military pensions. Many states exempt federal, state, and local government pensions (often with limitations) and 23 states exempt some private pension income. Alabama, Hawaii, Illinois, Mississippi, and Pennsylvania exempt virtually all pension income from their state income taxes. CONNECTICUT TAX ON PENSION INCOMEExcept for Social Security, railroad retirement, and military retirement benefits, Connecticut ' s state income tax treats income from public and private pensions the same as any other income. The state has no other special exemptions for pension income.

Maximum Age Requirements To Join The Military Share Flip Pin Share Email•••By Stew Smith Updated April 21, 2017One of the most frequently asked questions recruiters get asked is what are the maximum age limits to enlist in the military service. There is an age limit that disqualifies certain ages from joining the military. However, the age limit is higher that you may think. If you are over this age limit, you are not qualified for service. But, if you keep pushing and proving to the recruiters that your experience and physical fitness levels are acceptable, you could be eligible for an age waiver. The most frequently asked question is the following: Question: What is the maximum age to enlist in the Military? Across the United States Armed Forces, the maximum age for enlistment for someone who has never served in the military before depends on the branch. For the Army, the maximum age is 35. For the Navy, age waivers start at 34-years-old."

"text": "\"MJ Logue, Truth Vigilante Answered Oct 25, 2011Originally Answered: How can the U. S. justify allowing their youth to go to war at the age of 18 but not allowing them to drink alcohol until they turn 21? If it were more than arbitrary, it'd be even higher than it is. The 'maturing' of the human brain in terms of making intelligent decisions in risky situations does not finish until around age 25. If the law was meant to limit undue casualties from poor judgement, it should be at least that high. The effects alcohol has on the brain will always involve impairment of frontal lobe function even after the age of 25, but according to studies by organizations like the NIH, the impairment is lessened once this physiological maturation has occurred. For example: http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac... However, why it's 21 is beyond me, as I said it seems a rather arbitrary attempt to split the difference between the age of 'brain maturity' to limit risk and the societal age of 'adulthood' that has remained at 18.2.6k Views · View Upvoters Your response is private.

[ 5] Conscription dates back to antiquity and continues in some countries to the present day under various names. The modern system of near-universal national conscription for young men dates to the French Revolution in the 1790s, where it became the basis of a very large and powerful military. Most European nations later copied the system in peacetime, so that men at a certain age would serve 1–8 years on active duty and then transfer to the reserve force . In China, the State of Qin instituted universal military service following the registration of every household. [ 6] This allowed huge armies to be levied, and was instrumental in the creation of the Qin Empire that conquered a large area of what is now China in 221 BC. Conscription is controversial for a range of reasons, including conscientious objection to military engagements on religious or philosophical grounds; political objection, for example to service for a disliked government or unpopular war; and ideological objection, for example, to a perceived violation of individual rights. Those conscripted may evade service, sometimes by leaving the country. ["

Syrian government armed forces have been primarily responsible for these violations. But armed groups fighting the government have also committed many serious abuses—including recruiting and using children under 18 in combat and in direct support roles. Human Rights Watch first documented this practice in November 2012, finding that boys as young as 14 assisted in support roles for the “Free Syrian Army,” an umbrella term for multiple armed groups fighting against Syrian government troops. Since then, the number of armed groups in Syria has proliferated to include extremist Islamist groups such as Jabhat al-Nusra and the Islamic State of Iraq and Sham (ISIS) that, local residents and former child fighters say, have systematically sought to recruit children. This report documents the experiences of 25 children who are current or former members of opposition armed groups. It does not, for logistical and security reasons, cover all groups that reportedly use children in Syria, in particular children who reported supporting, or participating with, government troops or pro-government militias, although several credible sources indicate that children have done so. Human Rights Watch found that opposition armed groups used boys as young as 15 as fighters and children as young as 14 in support roles. Some children who participated were detained or killed in battle. Boys interviewed fought on the frontlines, spied on hostile forces, acted as snipers, treated the wounded on battlefields, and ferried ammunition and other supplies to battles while fighting raged."

"text": "US Military Careers Joining the Military Age Limits Within Military Service Branches Maximum Age To Join Military In Each Branch of Service Share Flip Pin Share Email•••By Stew Smith Updated June 23, 2017Every branch of service has a maximum age limit to join the military. However, the age to enlist is not black and white. In fact, it is quite grey with different rules, regulations, and waivers to be accepted for various jobs at a wide range of ages. The federal law that can be manipulated in a case by case basis states that the minimum age for enlistment in the United States military is 17 (with parental consent) and 18 (without parental consent). The maximum age is 35. However, Department of Defense policy allows the individual services to specify the maximum age of enlistment based upon their unique requirements. The Air Force tends to have an older upper limit for enlistment, whereas the Marine Corps' cutoff age is younger than the other branches of the service. Each branch of the military has set maximum ages for those without any prior service enlistment. For those with prior enlistment, the circumstances will vary significantly case by case, so it is best to check with the branch you want to reenlist into to find out your eligibility. The individual services have set the following maximum ages for non-prior service enlistment: Active Duty None-Prior Service Army: 35 (must ship to basic training prior to 35th birthday."

Common symptoms of shingles include a rash, usually along a nerve path, and severe pain. Sometimes the pain can last for months and be so debilitating that typical daily routines are disrupted. How common is shingles? Every year in the United States shingles affects between 500,000 and 1 million people. Individuals have a 20-30 percent chance of getting shingles during their lifetime."

Still, shingles is much more common in adults. In fact, 75% of shingles cases occur in adults over age 45. Shingles Shingles, which is also called herpes zoster, is a reactivation of previous chicken pox or varicella zoster virus infection. After a case of chicken pox, the chicken pox virus remains latent or dormant, but can at some point become reactivated -- causing shingles.

The nonlive recombinant vaccine is designed to help prevent shingles and its complications. Phase 3 data showed that by reducing the incidence of shingles, the candidate vaccine also reduced the overall incidence of postherpetic neuralgia (PHN), a form of chronic pain associated with shingles. Regulatory approval is being sought for the vaccine to be given intramuscularly in two doses, with a two- to six-month interval between doses. The regulatory submission for Shingrix was based on a comprehensive phase 3 clinical trial program evaluating the vaccine’s efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity in more than 37,000 subjects. This includes the ZOE-50 and ZOE-70 studies, which were published in the New England Journal of Medicine in April 2015 and September 2016, respectively. The candidate vaccine combines glycoprotein E, a protein found on the varicella zoster virus (VZV) that causes shingles, with an adjuvant system, AS01 B, which is intended to enhance the immunologic response to the antigen. GSK intends to register the product as Shingrix, subject to approval by the FDA. Shingles typically presents as a painful, itchy rash that develops on one side of the body as a result of reactivation of latent VZV. Data from many countries indicate that more than 90% of adults have been infected with VZV during childhood."

It is caused by the varicella-zoster virus, the same virus that causes chickenpox. Anyone who has recovered from chickenpox can develop shingles. There are an estimated 1 million cases of shingles each year in the United States, with 1 in 3 people developing shingles during their lifetime. It is not possible to have shingles if you have never been exposed to chickenpox or the varicella virus that causes it. Once exposed, the virus can lay dormant for years. Most adults with the dormant virus never experience an outbreak of shingles or any further problems. However, in some individuals, it may reactivate multiple times.

You should not receive a second zoster vaccine if you had a life-threatening allergic reaction after the first shot. Keep track of any and all side effects you have after receiving this vaccine. If you ever need to receive a booster dose, you will need to tell the doctor if the previous shots caused any side effects. Becoming infected with shingles is much more dangerous to your health than receiving the vaccine to protect against it."

S.0November 02, 2010 • 556,618 views Previous Next Story at-a-glance Before the chickenpox vaccine was licensed in the US in 1995, children acquired natural immunity to the illness by age six. While it is contagious, chickenpox is a mild disease without any long-term or fatal complications. Normally, when you recover from chickenpox, the virus remains dormant in your nerve roots for many years, unless triggered by physical or emotional stress. When the virus is awakened, it surfaces as shingles, a painful illness marked with a blister-like rash on one side of the body. The chickenpox vaccine only provides temporary immunity, unlike the long-lasting immunity you get from getting the condition. At the same time, there are reports of serious reactions, injuries, and deaths from the mass use of the vaccine. Voluntary health choices are important in preventing vaccine issues. Help raise public awareness by arming yourself with vaccine information. Diane Murphy, MD, is the Director of the FDA's Office of Pediatric Therapeutics (OPT). The mission of OPT is to enforce a Congressional mandate that assures access for children to innovative, safe, and effective medical products."

Four million people in England will be eligible to receive the jab, as long as ministers can strike a deal with its manufacturer, after a recommendation by government advisers . The illness affects an estimated 250,000 people in the UK every year. Family doctors and specialists working with older people welcomed the move. But a row erupted last night when shingles campaigners demanded that people should be able to receive the jabs as soon as they turn 60. The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) specified that only those in their 70s should be eligible because the burden of the illness is heaviest in that age group. But Marian Nicholson, director of the Shingles Support Society, told the Observer: \"\"I'm disappointed that it's only 70 to 79-year-olds and that you'll have to wait until you are 70 to get this vaccine. It should be available from 60, because your risk of getting shingles rises sharply enough for 60 to be the age at which enough people suffer enough to make it worthwhile. \"\" Guardian Today: the headlines, the analysis, the debate - sent direct to you Read more Dr Ian Donald of the British Geriatrics Society, which represents specialists in medical care for older people, said 70 was the right age at which to start vaccinations because most cases of shingles occur in those in their 70s or 80s. \"\" Pitching it at 70 and upwards is reasonable."

"text": "\"Chickenpox and Shingles In-Depth Report Background Shingles and chickenpox were once considered separate disorders. Researchers now know that they are both caused by a single virus of the herpes family, known as varicella-zoster virus (VZV). The word herpes is derived from the Greek word \"\"herpein,\"\" which means \"\"to creep,\"\" a reference to a characteristic pattern of skin eruptions. VZV is still referred to by separate terms: Varicella: The primary infection that causes chickenpox Herpes zoster: The reactivation of the virus that causes shingles Varicella (Chickenpox). When patients with chickenpox cough or sneeze, they expel tiny droplets that carry the virus. If a person who has never had chickenpox or never been vaccinated inhales these particles, the virus enters the lungs. From here it passes into the bloodstream. When it is carried to the skin it produces the typical rash of chickenpox. Chickenpox is caused by the varicella-zoster virus, a member of the herpes virus family. The same virus also causes herpes zoster, or shingles, in adults."

During their lifetime about 30% of Americans will develop herpes zoster, which translates into an estimated 1 million cases each year in this country. The risk of zoster increases with increasing age; about half of all cases occur among people age 60 years or older. People who are immunosuppressed, as occurs with leukemia, lymphoma, and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, and people who receive immunosuppressive drugs, such as steroids and cancer chemotherapy are also at greater risk of zoster. People who develop zoster typically have only one episode in their lifetime. In rare cases a person can have a second or third episode. Can you catch zoster from a person with active zoster infection? Zoster is caused by reactivation of a latent varicella virus infection (from having chickenpox in the past). Zoster is not passed from one person to another through exposure to another person with zoster. If a person who has never had chickenpox or been vaccinated against chickenpox comes in direct contact with a zoster rash, the virus could be transmitted to the susceptible person."

"text": "What is shingles? Shingles (herpes zoster) is a painful skin rash caused by Varicella Zoster, the same virus that causes chickenpox. Once you've had chickenpox, the virus remains in your body in a dormant or inactive stage. If the virus becomes active again you may get shingles. Age, increased stress, and problems with the immune system may increase your chances of getting shingles. The shingles rash usually occurs on one side of the body, in a line along a nerve pathway. The rash begins as a tingling in the area then forms a cluster of small red spots that often blister. The rash can be painful. Shingles rashes can last 2-4 weeks, but in some people the nerve pain can last for months. For most people, the pain associated with the rash lessens as it heals."

Questions about Herpes Zoster and Zostavax Questions about Adverse Side Effects and Who Should Not be Immunized Questions about Herpes Zoster and Zostavax What is herpes zoster (shingles) and how commonly does it occur? Anyone who has had chicken pox is at risk for developing shingles. It is estimated that 1 million or more cases occur each year in the United States. Shingles can occur in people of all ages and the risk increases as people get older. When shingles develop, a rash or blisters appear on the skin, generally on one side of the body. This is a sign that the virus, that has been dormant in the nerve cells, has reactivated and traveled from the nerves and followed a path out to the skin. Because the nerves along the path become inflamed, shingles can also be painful. Pain that lasts for months after the rash has healed is called post herpetic neuralgia or PHN. For some people, this pain can be severe and chronic."

To help prevent shingles, the U. S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends a one-time vaccination (brand name Zostavax [ 1] ) for people 60 and older. Typical costs: For patients not covered by health insurance, the cost of a shingles vaccination typically includes: a shot administration fee and the cost of the single required dose of vaccine and in some cases (if your own doctor does not offer the shingles vaccination and you are unable to get it during a routine doctor visit) a doctor visit or consultation fee, for a total of about $200 to $250. For example, The Shot Nurse [ 2] , a mobile vaccination service in Tennessee, charges $205. Walgreens' Take Care Clinics [ 3] charge about $220. All Medicare Part D plans cover the shingles vaccine, as do many private health insurance plans. For patients covered by health insurance, typical expenses include a doctor visit copay and, in some cases, a copay for the vaccine. For example, under a North Carolina health plan [ 4] for retired state employees, patients pay a doctor-visit copay, but the vaccine is covered 100 percent. Related articles: Health Insurance, Meningitis Vaccine, Hepatitis Vaccine, Tetanus Diphtheria Vaccine, Polio Vaccine, Travel Vaccinations What should be included: For the shingles vaccination, also known by the brand name Zostavax, the health care provider will administer a single shot. The shingles vaccine is not 100 percent effective."

The new vaccine, called Shingrix, could be available by early next year. The price of the two-dose vaccine could give some consumers sticker shock. But doctors say the $280 cost can be worth it to avoid getting shingles. Shingles, also called herpes zoster, happens when the chickenpox virus roars back to life in adulthood; and it’s infamous for the severe pain many experience. About one in three people in the United States get shingles. And in about one in five people who are affected, the pain from shingles can last long after the rash and accompanying blisters have disappeared.

This virus is the same virus that causes chickenpox, and shingles is a result of this virus reactivating in your body. Technically, you are never cured of chickenpox. Even though your body recovers, the virus stays in your body hidden in the roots of your nerves near your spinal cord. Many years later, something triggers the release of this virus and it spreads down your nerves, causing visible and painful symptoms on your skin. Risk factors for shingles include: Older age - over 50% of all cases of shingles occur in people aged over 60A weakened immune system - conditions such as HIV or cancer, autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis or rheumatoid arthritis, or certain medications (such as prednisone, azathioprine) can all compromise your immune system, increasing your risk of developing shingles Recent surgery. Some people also develop shingles for no obvious reason at all.2. Shingles Symptoms: Painful, Itchy Rash On One Side Of Your Body The most noticeable symptom of shingles is a painful, itchy, red rash with fluid-filled blisters. Most people get a tingling or itchy feeling in the area a few days before the rash appears."

The rash consists of blisters that eventually break open, crust over, and consolidate into an ugly plaque. It is localized to one side of the body and to a stripe of skin corresponding to the dermatomal distribution of a sensory nerve. Very rarely a shingles infection can lead to pneumonia, hearing problems, blindness, brain inflammation (encephalitis) or death. More commonly, patients develop postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) in the area where the rash was. The overall incidence of PHN is 20%; after the age of 60 this rises to 40%, and after age 70 it rises to 50%. It can be excruciatingly painful, resistant to treatment, and can last for years or even a lifetime. Shingles is caused by the varicella zoster virus, the same virus that causes chickenpox. In fact, you can’t get shingles unless you’ve had chickenpox (or, rarely, chickenpox vaccine)."

"text": "Retirement & Financial Planning Report Get it delivered right to your inbox!The TSP Age-Based Withdrawal Option Published: May 1, 2014 More in: Retirement & Financial Planning Report The Thrift Savings Plan allows actively employed participants to make an age-based withdrawal at age 59 1/2 or higher. This was structured so that these withdrawals would be exempt from early withdrawal penalties generally applying below that age to participants in tax-deferred plans such as the TSP. You may make only one age-based withdrawal. Taking such a withdrawal does not affect your eligibility for a later TSP loan or a financial hardship in-service withdrawal. However, it can affect your withdrawal options after you separate. If you choose one, you will not be allowed to make the partial post-separation withdrawal. The option might be valuable if you need to fill a need for a lump sum of money before retirement or separation and you might not be able to wait that extra time, however short it may be. And at that rather advanced point in a working career, you may not wish to pay the money back into your account, as taking out a TSP loan would require. The age-based withdrawal also effectively is a way to design a mixed withdrawal, by taking out part of the account as a lump sum and leaving the rest in to be withdrawn after retirement or separation in the manner of your choosing. There is an option to roll over the age-based withdrawal to an IRA or other qualified plan."

There are several options for withdrawing the entire amount from a TSP participant's account; namely, through: (1) a single (lump sum) payment; (2) a series of monthly payments - either computed by the TSP based on IRS life expectancy tables or a specific dollar amount; (3) a life annuity; or (4) a mixed withdrawal or combination consisting of any two or all three of the available full withdrawal options - single amount, life annuity, or monthly payments. This column discusses the single (lump sum) payment and the series of monthly payments withdrawal options. Upon leaving or retiring from federal service, a TSP participant can request a withdrawal of his or her TSP account in a single payment.

In that case, the TSP will automatically send the participant a check for the balance of the account after the participant's agency reports to the TSP of his or her separation from the agency.• The participant expects to be rehired after a break in service of less than 31 calendar days. There are two ways to request a post employment withdrawal; (1) by completing form TSP-70 and mailing it to the TSP; or (2) by using the TSP Web site at www.tsp.gov to begin the withdrawal request. Note, however, that a participant's withdrawal request cannot be completed online.

If you have two separate TSP accounts – a civilian TSP account and a uniformed services account – you can only make an age-based withdrawal from the account associated with your active employment at the time of your withdrawal.

Congress established the TSP in the Federal Employees' Retirement System Act of 1986. The purpose of the TSP is to provide retirement income. The TSP is a defined contribution plan. The retirement income that you receive from your TSP account will depend on how much you have contributed to your account during your working years and the earnings on those contributions. The TSP offers the same type of savings and tax benefits that many private corporations offer their employees under so-called \"\"401 (k)\"\" plans.

Their retirement creates vacancies that can be filled by employees who would otherwise be separated or downgraded.

"text": "\"Traditional TSP vs. Roth TSPThe decision whether to invest in a traditional TSP or a Roth TSP boils down to whether you believe you will be in a higher or lower tax bracket when you take your distributions. With the traditional TSP, contributions are made with pre-tax money (income which has not been taxed), grows tax free over the years, and then you are taxed on everything you withdraw. ( Unless you are a member of the military making tax-exempt contributions such as combat zone tax exclusion pay, in which case you are not taxed when you withdraw your original contributions. ) In a Roth TSP, your contributions are made with income on which you have already been taxed (unless you are military making a tax free contribution), then they grow tax free over the years, and finally you withdraw both contributions and gains tax free. Despite all the arguments on either side of the issue, there is no real advantage in terms of how much growth you can expect from your money over the course of your career by choosing one option over the other. The effects of compounding the higher contributions made to a traditional TSP exactly match the benefit you obtain by not paying taxes on the gains under a Roth TSP. Here’s the math showing how much money will you have available to spend in 10 years, after paying income taxes, under the traditional TSP vs. the Roth TSP: Let’s start with some simple assumptions: You put $10,000 from your salary into your Thrift Savings Plan this year. Your combined marginal federal and state income tax bracket is currently 35 percent. Your Thrift Savings Plan account earns 5 percent per year. You will retire in 10 years and withdraw both the contribution which you made this year and the returns earned."

You have two options. You can take a partial withdrawal which allows you to make a one-time-only withdrawal and leave the rest of your money in the TSP until a later date. You can also take a full withdrawal which allows you to withdraw all of the money from your TSP account. You can do it all at once (lump sum payment), over a period of time or you can purchase an annuity that will make payments to you for life. TSP allows you to choose any combination of these full withdrawal options. One of the full withdrawal options that few people know much about is the TSP Annuity option or “Life Annuity. ”What is a Life Annuity: A life annuity is a monthly benefit paid to you for life. You are eligible to purchase a TSP life annuity if you are separated from Federal civilian employment or the uniformed services. You can withdraw all or part of your TSP account as a life annuity as long as the amount used to purchase it is $3,500 or more."

"text": "Scott Holsopple Thinking of taking a withdrawal from a retirement account while you’re still working? There’s a lot to consider. Understand there is a difference between taking a withdrawal and taking a loan from your employer-sponsored plan. Just as with a regular loan, when you take a loan from your 401 (k) you will pay back the amount you take out, with interest. For the purposes of this article we’re focusing just on withdrawals— taking money out of your employer-sponsored retirement plan that you will not be able to pay back. With that distinction out of the way, you’ll need to review additional information to know what will be available to you.i Stock Photo From what plan type would you take the withdrawal?401 (k): If you are younger than age 59½ and still working for the employer offering the retirement plan, the IRS only allows you to take 401 (k) withdrawals in the face of an immediate and heavy financial need. That could include: Medical expenses for you, your spouse or a dependent;Tuition and fees for college education for you, your spouse or a dependent;A home purchase;To prevent foreclosure or eviction;Repairing damage to your primary residence; or Funeral costs. A hardship withdrawal, as described above for someone under the age of 59 ½, will be subject to ordinary income tax and a 10 percent IRS early-withdrawal penalty. Taking a hardship withdrawal from a 401 (k) plan, subject to meeting the IRS requirements, may be possible though your employer may have additional requirements or more stringent rules. Check your plan document to see whether the option is available to you.403 (b): The rules are essentially the same as those governing 401 (k) withdrawals."

"text": "What Is a Roth Federal Thrift Savings Plan (TSP)By Pat SPosted in: Retirement Share 2 Tweet Pin Comments 4The U. S. Federal Government’s Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) is a deferred contribution retirement plan for Federal employees. The TSP is administered by the Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board, an independent government agency, for the benefit of civilian Federal employees as well as active duty and reserve military members. The TSP offers similar savings and tax benefits to a traditional 401k plan. You can contribute up to $16,500 of pre-tax income if you are under the age of 50, or $22,000 if you are 50 or older. The amount you contribute plus any matching funds deposited by the government accumulate tax-free until you withdraw funds during retirement (defined as age 59 1/2 for tax purposes). At this point, the entire withdrawal is taxed as ordinary income. However, some employees prefer the Roth model, where contributions are taxed, but withdrawals are tax-free. Fortunately for these investors, a new retirement option is soon becoming available to Federal employees called the Roth TSP. The Roth 401k Over the past few years, more and more employer-sponsored retirement plans have begun to offer a Roth 401k option as an alternative to the traditional tax-deferred 401k plan. Unlike the traditional 401k, the Roth alternative allows investors to contribute after-tax income to the fund."

"text": "Traditional vs. Roth Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) Contributions Friday May 8, 2015 •The Thrift Savings Plan (TSP), the Federal Government and military’s version of the 401 (k), is a fantastic, low-fee way for military members to save for retirement. The plan has recently added a new option for making contributions, yet the benefits of this feature are not widely understood. The Roth option was introduced to the TSP in 2012 and represented a significant alternative to making contributions to your TSP account. While Traditional (pre-tax) contributions are beneficial for some members, Roth (after-tax) contributions offer a substantial advantage for active duty members who are generally in a low tax bracket. Though the Roth option has been available for three years, many members remain unaware of the advantages of the Roth and continue to make Traditional contributions to their TSP accounts. Choosing between Traditional and Roth can have a substantial impact on the value of your retirement savings, and our goal is to make sure you have the information needed to make the best decision for your circumstances. Traditional vs. Roth – The Basics Traditional contributions are pre-tax contributions where the contribution is taken out of your paycheck before income is taxed. The money that is contributed to your TSP will grow tax deferred, and you will pay taxes on your contribution and their earnings upon withdrawal in retirement (1). For example, if you make Traditional contributions of $5,000 into your TSP account in 2015 and that money grows to say $25,000 upon retirement, you will pay taxes on the $5,000 contribution plus the $20,000 in earnings when you withdraw them. If you are in the 28% marginal tax bracket in retirement and you withdraw that $25,000, you will pay 28% ($7,000) in taxes."

"text": "Travel | Practical Traveler When Teenagers Fly Alone By JENNIFER CONLIN AUG. 24, 2011Jan Feindt IT was with a sense of relief that I set out to book my two teenage children’s airfares to camp last month. With Florence now 15, I knew I would no longer have to pay the $200 round-trip fee required by airlines like Delta and US Airways for children younger than 15 traveling without an adult. I also assumed that because Florence would be flying with Charles, her 14-year-old brother, from Detroit to Boston, he, too, would be exempt from the fee since she would be accompanying him. But to my dismay, I learned that Delta, which offered one of the cheapest fares, would still require me to pay the $200 in fees for Charles to travel as an unaccompanied minor because his sister was not yet 18. Frantic, I began searching other airlines, happy to discover that American Airlines allows children 12 and older to travel without an adult, but disappointed that the airfare was much higher than the others. Thankfully, further research revealed that they could fly on Spirit Airlines, which allows a child to fly with someone who is at least 15. I quickly booked two round-trip tickets. For years I had happily paid the fees that most airlines charge for children to fly as unaccompanied minors. After all, when my children were preteenagers and too young to handle last-minute flight cancellations or heavy turbulence on their own, the programs offered considerable peace of mind."

( Unaccompanied Minor)Each airline has their own policy regarding unaccompanied minors and we strongly recommend you call and speak with a Travel Specialist at 1-800-CHEAP-AIR (1-800-243-2724) if you are planning to have your child fly alone. This way, while the specialist helps you find the best deal on a ticket, they can also ensure there will be no problems and you are fully aware of the policies held by the airline you select. To help with your planning there are a few general policies held by nearly all airlines. Plan on arriving at the airport at least 30 minutes to an hour earlier than you normally would, as you will have to fill out an “Unaccompanied Minor” form at the airline counter. You will also be asked to provide the name of the adult who will be meeting your child at the destination and that individual will have to provide identification before they can take your child. Also, keep in mind that many airlines do charge a fee for the Unaccompanied Minor service, which can range from $25 to $150, per direction. These fees are not part of the ticket price and must be paid at the counter before they will issue a boarding pass. There are also certain flights that unaccompanied minors are simply not allowed to fly on. For example, all airlines prohibit them from flying on the last non-stop or connecting flight of the day."

If you are allowing your children to fly alone, be sure to take every necessary precaution to ensure their safety. Millions of children fly alone each year, the majority without incident. But Seth’s case should be a warning to parents: Be sure you and your child are prepared for the trip. Read on for important tips on children flying alone. Unaccompanied Minors Airlines generally consider children ages 5 – 14 who travel without a parent or guardian to be “unaccompanied minors.” Many airlines will not allow children 7 and under to make connections at all, but in the event a minor is old enough to change planes, they will probably be assisted by airline personnel and a fee will be charged."

The airline considers any passenger between 5 and 14 years old as a minor. Although minors under 16 do not need identification for domestic flights, all international passengers, including children, must carry a valid passport. Restrictions Jet Blue won’t allow children under the age of 5 to travel unaccompanied. In addition, the company won’t permit unaccompanied minors onto any flight that is not nonstop, meaning they can’t travel on connecting flights, flights that make a stop en route or journeys that involve a flight with another airline. Pre-Booking Travel In order for your child to travel alone on Jet Blue, you must pre-book when you buy their flight tickets.

Get these at craft stores or stores selling teaching supplies. Bob Cerullo, author of What’s Wrong With My Car?, suggests the following: count state license plates or truck names; buy a pack of cards called 52 Fun Things To Do in the Car, by Lynn Gordon —each card has a different activity on it; bring a songbook or cassette and sing along—one such tape is called: Are We There Yet?, Travelin’ Sing A longs; bring old radio mystery programs on cassette or CD, or the old comedy programs like The Jack Benny Show; the whole family can learn a language using Learn in the Car or get audio books from the library or most any store that sells books—get the Mobile Player, a digital device that can play almost any kind of spoken material—books and other material are downloaded online to your home PC for a fee; you can now get rear-seat TV/VCRs for your minivan, although you need to check with your state’s dept. of motor vehicles to make sure it’s legal in your area; and don't forget to stop and let the kids run around.

However, the world of airport terminals and baggage claims can be pretty overwhelming to the uninitiated, especially kids traveling alone. So today, TPG Contributor Jason Steele offers guidelines for helping unaccompanied minors get from gate to gate worry free. Update: United has increased the age of passengers who must use the unaccompanied minor service from 5 to 11 years old to 5 to 15 years old. The site reads, “For tickets purchased on or after December 14, 2015, children 5 to 15 years of age who travel on an aircraft without a parent, legal guardian or someone at least 18 years of age are considered unaccompanied minors and are subject to certain restrictions.” The unaccompanied minor service charge is still $150 each way and is not available to children over the age of 15. As a child, I was always very excited (and a little bit nervous) to fly by myself to visit my grandparents."

For children who travel by themselves, KLM offers the Unaccompanied Minor Service, which ensures that KLM personnel will accompany your child through the airports, to and from the aircraft, and will keep a close look at your child during the flight. If the trip has long waiting periods during flights, there is a special Junior Jet Lounge where he/she can relax, play and readat the Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam. KLM will maintain constant communication with the parents, through text messages, telephone calls or emails, to keep them informed in the event of any schedule changes, and will deliver the child to the authorized person. Are there any age restrictions for children traveling alone on KLM flights? The following age restrictions for children traveling alone apply on flights operated by KLM: All children 4 years old and younger must be accompanied by an adult who is 18 or older. This person is responsible for the child during the whole journey. Parent and child (or guardian and child) have to travel together if the Unaccompanied Minor Service has not been purchased. Children aged 5 up to 15 years can travel on their own only if they have booked the Unaccompanied Minor Service. Remember to book the service with KLM through their reservation department."

"text": "Should Children Travel Alone on Airlines? Safe Flight Guideby Anne Mc Dermott Good question: Is it safe for children to travel alone on airlines? If you mean a child’s physical well-being, the answer seems to be “yes”. If you mean a child getting to where he’s supposed to go, the answer is sometimes “no”. Children Sent to Wrong Airports We saw that just this week with Delta Air Line’s double destination mix-up involving a pair of young travelers: a 9 year old boy heading to Boston was flown to Cleveland, while a 9 year old girl heading to Cleveland was flown to yes, Boston. Delta quickly apologized, got the kids on the right flights, refunded the tickets and more, but it had to be pretty scary for the families. So, are “unaccompanied minors” – which is what these kids are called in airline lingo – safe on their own? Well, millions of kids fly by themselves every year and problems seem to be rare but, mistakes do happen. And sometimes mistakes happen repeatedly. More Airline Mistakes A year ago, Continental Airlines racked up two “misdirected child incidents” (more airline lingo) on back-to-back days; in one case, a little girl was sent to Arkansas – which was a shame since her family was waiting for her at an airport in North Carolina."

"text": "Sending your child on a flight by themselves. No one wants any problems to occur, so many airlines make sure that children who fly alone aren’t actually alone, they are escorted and monitored at all times. Most airlines require that an adult drops the child off at the designated check-in counter and waits in the airport until the flight has actually taken off before they leave. They also require children to travel as part of an unaccompanied minor travel service which must be booked in advance when the tickets are purchased. The conditions under which different airlines accept children flying alone varies, and it’s always important to check directly with the airline before you assume anything as rules and regulations do change, and are different for certain routes. The following chart gives details for many of the airlines’ basic rules which will give you a guideline to work with.1Air France Children between the ages of 5 and 11 may travel unaccompanied and be given priority boarding. On flights within French territories the ages are 4-11.2Air New Zealand Children between the ages of 5 and 12 can travel as unaccompanied minors. There are restrictions for 5-7 year olds however.3American Airlines Under5s may only travel with someone aged 15 or older. Children between 5 and 7 may travel as unaccompanied minors on most routes but not those requiring a change of aircraft. 8-14 year olds can travel alone as long as there is no onward connecting flight."

Walt Disney Co. has unveiled a new admission policy requiring that children entering any of its U. S.-based theme parks be accompanied by a visitor at least 14 years old. In years past, parents living near theme parks would often use them as day-care facilities during summer vacation and spring break. Children would be dropped off for the day, clutching passes and some spending money. The change puts an official end to that ritual.

And that means you sometimes need to arrange flights for kids traveling by themselves. Most airlines have \"\"unaccompanied minor\"\" provisions to take care of the problem; they're included in contracts of carriage, as augmented by various rules. But they're not free. And the recent announcement from American that it upped its charge presents an opportunity to revisit a question I last covered more than a year ago. Overall, unaccompanied minor procedures are fairly common among all lines. Unaccompanied minors require reservations and adult-priced tickets. Adults involved must make ironclad arrangements to get them to their departure airport and retrieve them at their destination, with all the required documentation. Airlines typically hang a pouch containing all relevant documents -- tickets, meeting instructions, and cash for incidental expenses -- around the child's neck."

The airline, which recently merged with fellow carrier US Airways, is now charging a fee of $150 for children aged 12-14 who are flying solo, according to an employee memo obtained by the newspaper. Previously, the charge was only mandatory for kids between 5 and 11, but starting Sept. 3 the age range will be extended. The newspaper also reported that the company is working on merging the policies of the two carriers. US Airways, for example, doesn’t currently allow unaccompanied minors to have itineraries that include connecting flights. American does, so soon US Airways will allow children to make a connection as well.

"text": "Social Security Retirement Income—Earn All You Want and Still Collect Full Benefits Posted on March 9, 2012 by bobrichards Because of a prior rule on limitations in social security benefits based on age of starting benefits, some people still think there are limits on how much you can earn and still collect all of the social securityretirement income to which you are entitled. That is still true for people who opt to take social security before full retirement age. However, those working after full retirement can have unlimited amounts of earned income and still collect their full social security retirement benefit. Here’s the rule and then let’s look at an example. Rule: If you are under full retirement age when you start getting your Social Security retirement payments, $1 in social security benefits will be deducted for each $2 you earn above $12,960 (for 2007). In the calendar year you attain full social security retirement age, $1 in benefits will be deducted for each $3 you earn above $34,440 (for 2007) up to the month of full retirement age attainment. Hypothetical example: Mrs. Smith, age 62 in March of 2007, decides to retire from employment and start her reduced social security retirement benefits at the rate of $12,000 annually ($1,000 per month). She also decides to start a business. By age 63, her business is earning a net profit of $20,000 annually. She will need to give up $3,520 of her annual social security retirement income for this reason: During those months before you reach full retirement age (age 66 for someone born in 1945 like Mrs. Smith), your social security benefits are reduced $1 for each $2 you earn over $12,960 (for 2007)."

"text": "Social Security Earnings Penalty? May 23 2013A good deal of misinformation is published about a so-called Social Security earnings penalty. Many are led to believe that if they earn money while collecting Social Security, they'll lose some of this benefit forever. Retirees should ignore all talk about a “penalty,” which only discourages prudent cost-benefit analysis. The Social Security retirement earnings test affects those who earn income while claiming Social Security benefits before age 66, which is full retirement age (FRA) for those born before 1955. It impacts equally those who are claiming personal retirement benefits, spousal benefits and survivor benefits. Those who delay claiming their benefit until FRA or later will not be impacted. For example, after age 66, you can earn $1 million (or more) a year without cutting into your Social Security checks. Even if you are under age 66, going back to work has a double benefit. For starters, this additional income can raise your 35-year income average, which is the basis of your Social Security benefit."

Take a fresh look at the types of records and papers you should be keeping at the beginning of each new stage or change in your life. The household might be considered a mini-business since many of the functions of planning, purchasing, and record keeping are the same as they are for any other type of business — large or small. Importance of Records You will find that financial records have become a vital part of your life. They are a key to your credit standing, are essential to help you save money on taxes, and also are a continuing indication of your financial progress. If you have systematic plan for keeping track of important papers you can save hours of anxious searching; help preserve peace and harmony; and make it easier to cope with emergency situations. Record-keeping is also important due to legal and safety factors. Many records and papers can be kept in a home file for ready access, while others should be left with your attorney, placed in a safe-deposit box, or put in a fireproof, waterproof, and burglar-proof home safe. A good rule to follow is to keep the item at home unless it is a legal document or is difficult to replace or duplicate. Then it should be kept in a safe-deposit box or possibly left with your attorney."

"text": "\"How do I apply for benefits? The most important advice is to access the Social Security website and get their most current official guidance on how to apply:http://www.ssa.gov/retire2/applying8.htm Note that you can apply online, by phone, or in person, and that you should apply for benefits no more than four months before the date you want your benefits to start. Our software calculates the maximized filing strategy for you based on your earnings history and your status as married, single, widowed, disabled, etc. As you apply for those benefits, be sure to use your entitlement month, i.e. the month you start earning Social Security benefits, on your application. These are the same as the filing dates, you enter on the What-If Dates screen. Since Social Security pays benefits one month in arrears, you will receive your check one month after the entitlement month. For example, if our software calculates that you file for retirement benefits in December 2020, you will receive your first retirement benefit check in January 2021. Be careful to start your entitlement neither too early nor too late. Social Security encourages you to apply 3 to 4 months before you want to start your entitlement. So in the above example, if you apply in September 2020, be sure to establish your entitlement month as December 2020."

"text": "Child benefits Child benefits Child benefits are paid with every child under the age of 18 years, domiciled in Iceland and dependent on a person or persons who have an unlimited tax liability in Iceland. The child benefits are paid to the child's supporter, i.e. the person that the child is living with and is dependent upon at the end of the previous income year. The person that pays child support is not regarded the child's supporter in this context. Married couples that file joint tax returns are both regarded as supporters and the child benefits are split equally between them. The same applies to persons in cohabitation that at the end of the income year meet the conditions of joint taxation, even if they have asked to be taxed separately. Persons that share a household with their child are both considered the child's supporters even if they have not registered their cohabitation. Child benefits in Iceland are income related and calculations are based on both parents / supporters' total income for the previous year. In the case of a single parent, only the income of that parent is used in the calculations. Full benefits are paid for the year of birth of a child, but none is paid for the year in which a child reaches 18 years of age. The amount of child benefits is calculated in the tax assessment at the end of June each year and the calculated amount is split into two payments, the first on 1 st of July and the second on 1 st of October."

SUMMARYConnecticut ' s income tax excludes (1) 75% or 100% of federally taxable Social Security income, depending on the taxpayer ' s federal adjusted gross income (AGI); (2) 100% of railroad retirement benefits; and (3) starting with the 2008 tax year, 50% of federally taxable military retirement benefits. Connecticut has no exemptions for other types of pension income. According to a 2007 survey by the National Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL), of the 41 states with personal income taxes, all but four (Minnesota, Nebraska, Rhode Island, and Vermont) have at least one state income tax exemption for some pension and retirement income. The most common exemptions are for Social Security and military pensions. Many states exempt federal, state, and local government pensions (often with limitations) and 23 states exempt some private pension income. Alabama, Hawaii, Illinois, Mississippi, and Pennsylvania exempt virtually all pension income from their state income taxes. CONNECTICUT TAX ON PENSION INCOMEExcept for Social Security, railroad retirement, and military retirement benefits, Connecticut ' s state income tax treats income from public and private pensions the same as any other income. The state has no other special exemptions for pension income. Social Security and Railroad Retirement Most Social Security and all railroad retirement benefits are exempt from the Connecticut income tax."

Here are some points you may not be aware of.1. Social Security isn't just a retirement benefit. Most notably, it offers a disability benefit with no age requirement for those unable to work \"\"because of a physical or mental condition that is expected to last at least one year or result in death. \"\" Read More Where there's a will, there's a way But please don't cancel your group or private disability income insurance policies expecting Social Security to pick up the tab. These are notoriously difficult benefits to receive. Even the Social Security Administration itself offers this warning: \"\"Our disability rules are different from those of private plans or other government agencies. The fact that you qualify for disability from another agency or program does not mean you will be eligible for disability benefits from us. \"\" Social Security also offers benefits to a spouse and children of benefit recipients, as well as spouses, children or dependent parents of a deceased worker.

If you're receiving Social Security income before the year you attain your Full Retirement Age (FRA, which is currently age 66 for most people), your Social Security income might be reduced by the earnings test. If your wages or self-employment income exceed a certain threshold -- $15,120 per year in 2013 -- then your Social Security income is reduced by $1 for every $2 of earnings over the threshold.

When an employee covered by a pension plan has worked long enough to qualify for retirement benefits from the plan, he “vests” in the plan. Of the 51 state teacher retirement plans surveyed for this report, 15, including Connecticut, require teachers to have at least 10 years of service to vest; two require between five and 10 years; 26 require five years; and eight require less than five years. Nearly all the plans allow members to purchase credit for out-of-state teaching service, but most impose limits on such purchases. Among the most common are limits on the number of years of out-of-state service a member can purchase, requiring members to have a minimum number of years of service in the state plan before he can purchase other service, and limiting purchases to service for which the member will receive no other pension. Connecticut ' s teacher retirement system limits purchases in all three ways. Most plans specify minimum age and service requirements before a teacher is eligible to receive a full (“normal”) retirement pension. Twenty-six states, including Connecticut, allow members to retire with a full pension at any age if they have a minimum number of years of credited service (the most common minimum is 30 years). Some states allow a member to retire with full benefits if his age and years of service added together equals or exceeds a specified number, such as 80. The table below shows the requested information for each state, including Connecticut."

"text": "\"Earnings Test for Early Retirees By Kaye A. Thomas Updated June 3, 2009People who have earnings while receiving social security retirement benefits before reaching full retirement age may receive a reduced benefit. Social security lets you choose to begin taking your retirement benefit as early as age 62 instead of waiting until your full retirement age. If you do, you'll have to accept a reduced benefit. In addition, you'll have to deal with the earnings test for early retirees (sometimes called the retirement test ). If your earnings are too high during the period before you reach full retirement age, your benefit for that year may be reduced. Starting with the month you reach full retirement age, you can earn as much as you want without having a reduction in benefits, even if you chose to start your benefits before full retirement age. If your benefit is reduced as a result of the earnings test, the Social Security Administration will recalculate your benefit upward when you reach full retirement age. In other words, you get credit for the fact that you didn't receive your full benefit, so these dollars are not necessarily lost forever. What Are Earnings? This rule applies only to earnings as defined for purposes of social security."

"text": "Should I Pay for Insurance on My Rental Car? Information Courtesy of USAAFeb. 24, 2017 | Print |Highlights Call your insurance and credit card companies Primary auto insurance generally extends to rentals Collision and comprehensive coverage may not pay for every charge Have you ever found yourself at a rental car agency wondering whether you should buy their additional coverage? What, you wonder, does my regular auto insurance cover? Unfortunately, there are no easy answers that apply to everyone. Whether you're covered — and for what and how much — depends on what types of personal auto insurance you carry, what protection your credit card offers and where you're renting the car. Before you rent, call your personal auto insurance provider and your credit card company so you know what terms apply to a rental vehicle. Don't wait until you're on the side of the road waiting for a tow truck or ambulance. Generally, coverage from your primary auto insurance will extend to a rental vehicle. If you cause an accident while driving the rental, your liability insurance would pay up to your policy limits for the damages to other cars or property."

USAA may be the exception. Learn who is eligible for USAA membership, the products they offer, and why you should consider joining. It’s tough to be a big bank. Consumers love to hate them and the government regulates everything they do. Still, they profit like bandits and line the pockets of their Wall Street executives with seven-figure bonuses. As a consumer, it can be hard to avoid dealing with large banks. They often have the most aggressive marketing and convenient branches, for example. But if you ever get fed up with the big guys, there are options. Credit unions, for example, offer a local non-profit banking alternatives."

"text": "\"Autogenius Uber, Lyft & other rideshare drivers now have insurance optionsby Adam Cecil April 8th, 2015Updated October 3, 2017Uber is no stranger to controversy, especially controversy over how they treat their drivers. At the heart of these controversies is this central question: How much is Uber or Lyft – or any rideshare company – responsible for? In the case of car insurance for Uber drivers and Lyft drivers, that question still lingers. Back in the day, there was some question over when, exactly Uber and Lyft insurance covered rideshare drivers. When the driver wasn't working, he or she obviously had personal car insurance, and when there was a passenger in the car, the rideshare company's insurance kicked in. But when a driver was working but didn't have a passenger, coverage was limited. Car insurance companies also frowned upon drivers working commercially and in some cases, personal auto insurance policies were actually canceled once insurance companies found out that the driver worked for Uber or Lyft. Luckily, Uber and Lyft have beefed up their insurance options, and rideshare insurance has evolved to meet the modern working world. Here's what you need to know about insurance for Uber drivers and Lyft drivers offered by the companies, and rideshare insurance options from leading car insurance companies. Insurance for Uber drivers & Lyft drivers Rideshare trips are divided into three periods, depending on where the driver is in the process: The driver has not made a match with a passenger, the driver has made a match and is going to pick up the passenger, and the passenger is in the vehicle."

"text": "by Betsy 04/29/2013 · 12:29 pm ↓ Jump to Comments Bye Bye USAA – Why I am Now Cruising with the Gecko at Geico This is a saga that began 25 years ago when my dad told me that USAA was the absolute best auto insurer around and very exclusive. We were living in Chicago at the time and had just acquired our first car – a very old Honda Accord from my dad. Because my dad served in the US Navy, all family members were able to qualify for this insurance. I was happy with USAA for years until they continuously raised my rates without any reason. I had no claims for years, except for two very minor damages caused when my daughter was a teenage driver about 10 years ago. It is my general philosophy towards customer service that three strikes and you’re out. The trouble began about three years ago when I received a letter from USAA stating that I had been chosen randomly and an outside firm called Professional Surveys Inc. (PSI) would be calling me to verify current household information. That first time around, I answered all the questions and lo and behold, I was rewarded with an increase in my premium. Mind you, no claims during this time, perfect driving record, and I had removed my daughter as an active driver from my policy because she relocated to downtown Chicago and was no longer driving. The next year, once again lucky me – I was chosen randomly from all of their members to participate in the survey."

Read Full Biography Overview Biography Discography Songs Credits Related Share this pagefacebook twitter google+Artist Biography by Stephen Thomas Erlewine A blues-rock guitarist who draws his inspiration from Elmore James, Hound Dog Taylor, and Chuck Berry, George Thorogood never earned much respect from blues purists, but he became a popular favorite in the early '80s through repeated exposure on FM radio and the arena rock circuit. Thorogood 's music was always loud, simple, and direct -- his riffs and licks were taken straight out of '50s Chicago blues and rock & roll -- but his formulaic approach helped him gain a rather large audience in the '80s, when his albums regularly went gold. Originally, Thorogood was a minor-league baseball player but decided to become a musician in 1970 after seeing John Paul Hammond in concert. Three years later, he assembled the Destroyers in his home state of Delaware; in addition to Thorogood, the band featured bassist Michael Lenn, second guitarist Ron Smith, and drummer Jeff Simon. Shortly after the Destroyers were formed, he moved them to Boston, where they became regulars on the blues club circuit. In 1974, they cut a batch of demos that were later released in 1979 as the Better Than the Rest album. Within a year of recording the demos, the Destroyers were discovered by John Forward, who helped them secure a contract with Rounder Records. Before they made their first album, Lenn was replaced by Billy Blough. Thorogood & the Destroyers ' eponymous debut was released in early 1977."

"text": "How much does it REALLY cost to book your favorite band for a show?6/13/2014 4:27:48 AM PT comments [60]Several weeks ago you might recall seeing a widely circulated list showing booking fees for a host of notable musicians. Unfortunately, those who published the list were quick to point out that the accuracy of its information was highly questionable. As such, Business Insider spent a little time collecting artist fees via Celebrity Talent.net, which they claim gets its fee listings directly from band management and is therefore fairly accurate. As such they put together a list of prices. Their list is annoying browse though, so we put together our own list, weeding out the non-musicians and adding a few artists they had excluded, and posted it for you below. Among the talent you will find is Bad Religion, Black Sabbath, Bring Me The Horizon, Faith No More, Judas Priest, Korn, Mastodon, Megadeth, Metal Church, Primus, Queens of the Stone Age, Rage Against The Machine, Rob Zombie, Slayer, Soundgarden, Suicidal Tendencies, Tomahawk, Tool, and Volbeat . Remember, these amounts are not what a band gets for playing a show amidst a tour, but rather what they might ask for to fly into some random city for a one-off performance. And though these may be more accurate than the first list, there are still some problems here (Pink Floyd isn't playing, period. And Dave Grohl can't cost double the Foo Fighters). Whatever."

You also had a distinctive low-down guitar tone, right out of the box. Nobody else wanted to play that cheap guitar. It’s not like a Les Paul. I didn’t have any money when we started the band. I had to buy an ES-125. Plus I was a thumb and finger picker who played acoustic guitar first, and the arched top made the ES-125 feel like an acoustic. It was what they called a semi-electric in those days — almost like an acoustic guitar with pickups. And I had my pick of them because nobody else wanted them. It was a dirty, gruff sound."

It was directed by Nancy Meyers and stars Dennis Quaid, Natasha Richardson, and Lindsay Lohan (in her feature film debut). It is based on Erich Kästner 's novel Lottie and Lisa ( Das Doppelte Lottchen ). The plot involves a set of twins who have been separated at birth and, upon meeting by chance, decide to work together to reunite their divorced parents. Contents [ show]Synopsis Nick Parker (Quaid) and Elizabeth James (Richardson) met and married each other during an ocean cruise on the QE2. Elizabeth gave birth to twin daughters Annie and Hallie (both played by Lohan), but the couple divorced and lost contact with each other, each parent raising one of the twins without telling her about her sister. Nick raised Hallie in the Napa Valley and became a wealthy wine grower, while Elizabeth raised Annie in London and became a famous wedding gown designer. After the ocean cruise and onboard wedding ceremony, the story jumps ahead to a summer in which Nick and Elizabeth coincidentally enroll their daughters in the same summer camp. Annie and Hallie, who are now eleven years old, first meet at the end of a fencing match, when they remove their masks and see that they look alike. A comical hostility between the two girls leads to a prank war between them."

In a bizarre twist in the mystery, The Mail on Sunday has seen documents in which the daughter of the man now thought to have been involved in Jones’s death claims that the Stones’ former guitarist was confronted at his East Sussex home by Jagger and Richards over who owned the rights to the group’s name. Still going: The Rolling Stones on stage on Saturday night in London but a mystery still remains over the death of their former guitarist Brian Jones Back again: This was the first time the Rolling Stones played Hyde Park since their concert 44 years ago, two days after Brian Jones was found dead Hours later Jones was found dead in his swimming pool. The unsubstantiated claims, contained in an internal police report, were dismissed by officers, but will add further fuel to the conspiracy theories that surround Jones’s death in 1969 and question whether he really did drown under the influence of drink and drugs. RELATED ARTICLESPrevious 1 Next Awkward! The Rolling Stones Mick Jagger dines out with Nick... Share this article The allegation comes after the Stones played in front of 65,000 fans at London’s Hyde Park last night, re-enacting the emotive tribute they gave for Jones at the same venue 44 years ago. Last night’s concert was the first time the Stones have played at the park since their requiem for Jones two days after he was found dead. The source of the claim is Jan Bell, the daughter of Frank Thorogood, Jones’s builder-cum-minder who was present at Jones’s farm on the night of his death. Thorogood died in 1993. A year later, it was claimed that he had murdered Jones."

A verdict of death by misadventure was recorded by the coroner, Dr Angus Sommerville, after hearing the inquest into the star's death at East Sussex coroner's court. Brian Jones was found dead in the swimming pool of his home at Cotchford Farm in Hartfield in Sussex four days ago. The blonde-haired guitarist with a reputation for wearing flamboyant clothes and jewellery was one of the founder members of the Stones. He left the band a month ago citing musical differences and was planning to set up a new group. Bottom of the pool The inquest was told the musician had gone for a midnight swim after complaining of the heat. His girlfriend Anna Wohlin, another friend Janet Lawson and a builder, Frank Thorogood, had spent the evening with him. Mr Jones and Mr Thorogood had been drinking spirits and the guitarist had also been seen taking some pills. Miss Lawson, who is a nurse, said she had warned the men they were not in a fit state to go swimming but they had disregarded her warning. The alarm was raised by the housekeeper, Mary Haddock, who found the musician's body at the bottom of the pool."

"text": "\"Chuck Berry's First Hit \"\"Maybelline\"\" Turns 55TOM LOUNGES Times Correspondent Dec 31, 2010One of the true architects of rock 'n' roll, Chuck Berry, welcomes the new year tomorrow night at Chicago's stately Congress Theatre, by appropriately celebrating the 55th anniversary of the release of his very first record - \"\"Maybelline\"\" - on a date represented by all ones - 1/1/11. The 84-year-old rock pioneer and living icon will perform that song and numerous others when he hits the stage in true fashion, \"\"reelin' and a rockin'. \"\" Photo courtesy of Western Publicty Chuck Berry is without a doubt one of the true architects of the 1950s pop culture explosion that came to be called \"\"rock ‘n' roll. \"\" With his trademark Gibson guitar and a cache of self-composed songs that would become certifiable classics, Berry \"\"duckwalked\"\" his way into the pages of history. Honors given Berry include: being among the first batch of artists inducted into the \"\"Rock And Roll Hall of Fame,\"\" being awarded a \"\"Lifetime Achievement\"\" Grammy, receiving \"\"The Kennedy Center Honors,\"\" and \"\"Johnny B. Goode\"\" voted earlier this year as the \"\"Greatest Rock Guitar Song In History\"\" by the readers of \"\"Rolling Stone\"\" magazine. Berry's impact and contribution to rock music is best put into perspective by Detroit rocker Bob Seger's \"\"Rock ‘n' Roll Never Forgets\"\" with the lyric: \"\"All of Chuck's children are out there playing his licks. \"\" Berry's musical fingerprints can indeed be found on songs by hundreds of artists from every generation that has followed in his wake. Many artists have covered Berry's songs over the decades, including The Beach Boys, The Beatles, Tom Jones, AC/DC, Humble Pie, Foghat, Ten Years After, The Rolling Stones, Ted Nugent, REO Speedwagon, John Lennon (solo), Bruce Springsteen, Rod Stewart, Conway Twitty, Waylon Jennings, Jimi Hendrix, Iron Maiden, Tanya Tucker, The Grateful Dead, Johnny Winter, George Thorogood, Eric Clapton, and the list of \"\"Chuck's children\"\" as Seger so aptly called them, just goes on and on for pages. At a time of year when attention is traditionally focused on Elvis Presley because of his January 8th birthday, the 84-year-old Berry (exactly twice the age of Elvis when he died) will be reelin' and rockin' through his catalog of hits Saturday evening at the Congress Theater. Even Elvis himself recorded eight Berry songs during his career, with two of those - \"\"Promised Land\"\" and \"\"Memphis, Tennessee\"\" - becoming charted singles. \"\""

What is Age-Grading Age-Grading is a way of measuring your running performance taking into account your age and sex....you can effectively score every run you do. Age-Grading is a way of measuring your running performance taking into account your age and gender. It enables you to produce a percentage score for each run based on how old you were when you did the run. It also takes into account your gender so you can use the percentage score to compare your performance with other runners, regardless of both age and gender. The Good Run Guide Log Book also takes into account the hilliness of the run when calculating an Age-Graded percentage, so you can fairly compare your performance between runs, regardless of how hilly there are. This means you can effectively score every run you do. How is my Age-Graded Percentage calculated? The calculation uses data collated by the World Association of Veteran Athletics, to adjust your performance for age and gender. It takes World Record performances for each age and disatance, for men and women, and uses these as benchmarks."

"text": "Running Beginners What Is a Good Time for Running a Mile? By Christine Luff Updated July 26, 2017Share Pin Email Print Jordan Siemens/Getty Many runners want to know what's considered a good time for running a mile (or kilometer), but it’s tough to answer that question because it’s extremely subjective. Depending on the runner’s age and gender, a “fast” time for a mile or kilometer can vary greatly. Some speedy runners consider running a sub-6:00 mile as a big achievement, while some novice runners might be ecstatic to run a mile under 10:00. The current world records for the outdoor mile are 3:43.13 for men and 4:12.56 for women. Of course, most runners will never come anywhere close to those times, but they can still work on improving their own personal record for the mile distance. What's a Good Mile Time for a High School Student? High school track and cross country runners are often curious about how their mile time would compare to their fellow high school athletes. In most parts of the U. S., high school boys who can run a sub-5:00 mile can be very competitive on high school track and cross country teams. The same is true for high school girls who can run a sub-6:00 mile."

Emu chicks can be grown successfully in a wide range of environments and climatic conditions as long as their needs for normal growth are met and adequate care provided. Emu chicks are big in size but challenging to raise compared to any other chicks as they are more vulnerable to their environment during the first few weeks of their life due to improper humidity control in the incubators and hatchers resulting in a large yolk to be absorbed, which often leads to leg problems, unabsorbed and infected yolk sac and death. Care of the Chicks The chicks recently hatched, will need supplementary heat as a source to maintain their body temperature, if not provided will chill, have unabsorbed yolk and other complications and finally die of starvation and shock. Make small batches of chicks 6 to 10 in number, put under a brooder in a brooding partition, this prevents smothering and deaths due to huddling. Examine the chicks for comfort/discomfort several times druign the day and a few times during the night. Lights Lights intensity and duration can control weight gain."

Corinth's location at the junction of two railroads made it strategically important to the Confederacy during the American Civil War. Confederate General P. G. T.

You can sign up for membership (which is currently free to players affiliated to a club) online at https://www2.lta.org.uk/Membership/Join and once done you will be automatically assigned a rating unless you choose to opt out. You may ask for a rating at a later date by emailing [email protected] with your name and BTM number.1b Can I play in competitions without an LTA Rating? No, not in events staged or approved by the LTA (aka LTA Official Competitions). The only competitions that a non-rated player can compete in are there local club or school events which neither count for LTA ranking points nor for LTA ratings purposes.1c How can I improve my LTA Rating? ( i) If you are a junior with a rating of 10.2, 10.1, 9.2 or 9.1 you need to achieve:• 4 wins to move from 10.2 to 10.1 *, 4 wins to move from 10.1 to 9.2 *, • 4 wins to move from 9.2 to 9.1 * and 4 wins to move from 9.1 to 8.2 *."

What is Age-Grading Age-Grading is a way of measuring your running performance taking into account your age and sex....you can effectively score every run you do. Age-Grading is a way of measuring your running performance taking into account your age and gender. It enables you to produce a percentage score for each run based on how old you were when you did the run. It also takes into account your gender so you can use the percentage score to compare your performance with other runners, regardless of both age and gender. The Good Run Guide Log Book also takes into account the hilliness of the run when calculating an Age-Graded percentage, so you can fairly compare your performance between runs, regardless of how hilly there are. This means you can effectively score every run you do. How is my Age-Graded Percentage calculated? The calculation uses data collated by the World Association of Veteran Athletics, to adjust your performance for age and gender. It takes World Record performances for each age and disatance, for men and women, and uses these as benchmarks."

Young Germany explains the system from the ground up. September 1, 2015 by Caitlan Reegtweet recommend recommend send print The main guidelines governing education in Germany are mostly handled at the federal level by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research. For instance, every child must enroll in school by the age of six and complete at least nine years of schooling. But much of the education policy in Germany remains in the domain of the 16 German states. That means there is a fair amount of variation state to state. The First Years Parents in Germany have the option of enrolling their children under age three in nurseries called Kinderkrippen or finding private childcare or nannies, Tagesmuetter, to watch small children. Between the ages of three and six, children can attend Kindergartens or Kitas. Some Kitas are state-sponsored, while others are run by the Catholic and Protestant churches, or are private. Parents can find many different kindergarten models for their children."

Age-Group allows athletes to compete for medals and titles against fellow competitors within pre-defined age group categories. These age group categories are divided by gender and age and are set apart by five year age bands, see below. There are also Tristar, Youth and Junior categories from ages 8 through to 20, with international competition starting at age 16 for sprint distances and 18 for standard distance and long distance. For international age-group competitions and age-group qualification all 16-19 year olds will be grouped as one Under 20 age category. The age band category that you fall into depends on your age on December 31st in the year of competition.

"text": "Abstract Full Text Figures References Cited by PDFKeywords: Contrast media, complications, 81.12112 ; Kidney, CT, 81.12112 ; Kidney, failure Acute impairment of renal function from the use of intravascular radiographic contrast material is a well-documented complication ( 1 – 19 ). At many medical centers, serum creatinine levels are routinely obtained prior to contrast material–enhanced examinations as a method for predicting those susceptible to renal impairment. Contrast material–induced nephropathy has been investigated in many studies, but these studies were complicated by a number of factors, which included the lack of a clearly defined mechanism for nephrotoxic reactions, different parameters used to measure renal failure and renal insufficiency, a low prevalence of clinically important renal insufficiency, and a large number of associated risk factors ( 1, 2, 5, 6, 8 – 15, 19 ). The most commonly cited risk factors for contrast material–induced nephrotoxic reactions are preexistent renal insufficiency and diabetes mellitus ( 1 – 3, 5, 8 – 19 ). Other risk factors cited include advanced age, diuretic use, nephrotoxic medications (eg, aminoglycosides), dehydration, multiple myeloma, congestive heart failure, previous myocardial infarction, the presence of a single kidney, and a large volume of contrast material ( 1 – 19 ). Advanced age has been variably defined as age greater than 55 years ( 3 ), greater than 60 years ( 1, 9 ), and greater than 70 years ( 14 ). A large volume of contrast material has been cited as ranging from 30 to 250–800 m L of low-osmolality contrast material ( 5, 14, 15 ). In addition to the large number of risk factors previously associated with contrast-induced nephrotoxic reactions, studies are further complicated by the interrelationship between many of these risk factors. The purpose of this study was to determine the percentage of outpatients referred for contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) who have an elevated baseline serum creatinine level and to identify any associated risk factors in an attempt to define a true high-risk population and eliminate the need for routinely obtaining serum creatinine levels. MATERIALS AND METHODS Section: Choose prevnext Serum creatinine levels are routinely obtained in all patients scheduled to undergo contrast-enhanced CT at our institution."

Although survival rates are on the rise for many medical conditions, a debilitating illness and the costs associated with loss of income can lead to medical bankruptcy. A 2008 study by the American Cancer Society and the Kaiser Family Foundation that found 20 percent of people with health insurance still can't afford cancer therapy. In fact, the survey found that a year of treatment for blood cancers such as leukemia reached $1 million in 2008, which would max out the limits of most health insurance policies. Even with advanced medicine and a health insurance policy on your side, if you are diagnosed with a life-threatening illness, there is a possibility that you would not be able to afford the treatments recommended and needed. Critical illness insurance can help. What does it cover? Some medical conditions covered by critical illness insurance Heart attack Stroke Kidney failure Paraplegia Organ transplant Alzheimer's disease Blindness, deafness Multiple sclerosis Coma Coronary artery bypass graft HIV (medical personnel only)aortic surgery Angioplastyheart valve surgery Loss of sight/ speech/hearing Severe burns Cancers that have spread Cancers that have not spread Critical illness insurance provides a payment if you experience a critical illness that is covered under the policy contract.

As shown in Figure 2-1, when compared to the Healthy U. S.-Style Pattern: About three-fourths of the population has an eating pattern that is low in vegetables, fruits, dairy, and oils. More than half of the population is meeting or exceeding total grain and total protein foods recommendations, but, as discussed later in the chapter, are not meeting the recommendations for the subgroups within each of these food groups. Most Americans exceed the recommendations for added sugars, saturated fats, and sodium. In addition, the eating patterns of many are too high in calories. Calorie intake over time, in comparison to calorie needs, is best evaluated by measuring body weight status. The high percentage of the population that is overweight or obese suggests that many in the United States overconsume calories. As documented in the Introduction, Table I-1, more than two-thirds of all adults and nearly one-third of all children and youth in the United States are either overweight or obese. Figure 2-1. Dietary Intakes Compared to Recommendations."

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the most common cause of blindness in the developed world. 1-3 In this disease, the photoreceptors of the macula (the central retina) become damaged and die. 3 AMD results in central vision loss and is responsible for one-third of all forms of untreatable loss of vision. 4 An estimated 9 million older Americans have some form of AMD, and about 1.75 million have advanced AMD. 5,6 AMD is a disease of the elderly, and evidence suggests that 10% of individuals aged 65 to 74 years and 30% of those aged 75 to 85 years have evidence of AMD. 5 AMD is a gradual, painless, irreversible process in which the patient loses bilateral vision. 1,7AMD starts with deposits of lipid material that accumulate under the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE).

When it comes to personal finances, demographic information can be used to show how much debt certain groups of people have, as well as changes in debt levels and types of debt. While some trends related to debt are the same as or similar to what they were one or more generations ago, this kind of financial breakdown shows has become telling in the past few years. It effectively shows the difference between where people stood before and during the Great Recession, and how people’s finances have changed since then. With this information, demographers have created a fairly comprehensive picture of the Great Recession’s economic impact on the debt load of American households. Debt and Minorities A 2001 survey by the Journal of Finance and Accountancy found that 27 percent of the 7,579 respondents carried credit card balances. The survey found only minor differences between races. About 28 percent of white respondents carried balances, similar to the 25 percent of Hispanics, 24 percent of blacks and 24 percent of Asians. A similar survey of 2008 data delivered more detail about the amount of debt people were likely to carry as well as their typical assets: 87 percent of white households had assets, the highest of any race studied. In addition: Whites also had the most assets, with an average of $39,483 per household."

The CDC guidelines were developed to provide a central reference for professionals involved in infection control that contains CDC recommendations and is easily accessible to the infection control personnel in hospitals. It should be emphasized that these guidelines represent the advice of CDC on questions commonly asked of the Hospital Infections Program, but are not intended to have the force of law or regulation. These guidelines can be expected to change in response to the acquisition of new knowledge. Each guideline begins with a preamble that describes the approaches that have been used or advocated to deal with infection control issues and evaluate, where data exist, their efficacy. The preamble is followed by a group of succinct recommendations. The guidelines are assembled in a loose-leaf notebook to allow for the addition of new guidelines as they are developed and revisions as necessary. Optimally, recommendations should be based on rigorously controlled scientific studies because recommendations of this type have the highest probability of value."

"text": "\"navigation search Surveys of retirement spending data describing typical retiree spending patterns are an important resource for the retirement planning process. Careful analysis of such data provides important guidance for individuals, financial planners, economists, as well as for developers of retirement planning software. The two major sources of retirement spending data for U. S. retirees come from the annual U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics' Consumer Expenditure Survey and from the biennial Health and Retirement Study survey conducted by the Survey Research Center at the University of Michigan. Both of these survey datasets allow estimates of retirement spending for the median U. S. retiree as well as for retirees from a range of lower and higher income subgroups. Since both surveys have been conducted repeatedly over long time periods, they allow changes in retirement spending patterns over time to be examined. The Health and Retirement Study actually follows the same people over time, in what is known as a panel design, allowing even more detailed examination of the effects of retirement on individuals. Examples of such longitudinal studies include spending pattern changes as individuals transition into retirement, and spending changes during recessionary periods as a function of retirement income level. Retirement spending trends observed for the average U. S. retiree include the following: Spending drops modestly (14%) immediately after retirement, partly due to the cessation of work-related expenses (e.g. special clothing and transportation) and changes in food expenditures. Inflation-adjusted spending continues dropping slowly afterwards as retirees age into their late 70's. Housing + Related is by far the largest spending category for all age groups."

Spores are the tiny, thick-walled structures that fungi use to reproduce. Coccidioidomycosis exists in three forms. The acute form produces flu-like symptoms. Thechronic form can develop as many as 20 years after initial infection and, in the lungs, canproduce inflamed, injured areas that can fill with pus (abscesses). Disseminatedcoccidioidomycosis describes the type of coccidioidomycosis that spreads throughout the bodyaffecting many organ systems and is often fatal. Description Coccidioidomycosis is an airborne infection. The fungus that causes the disease is found in thedry desert soil of the southwestern United States, Mexico, and Central and South America. Coccidioidomycosis is sometimes called San Joaquin fever, valley fever, or desert fever because of its prevalence in the farming valleys of California."

Two species of coccidioides fungi cause valley fever. These fungi are commonly found in soil in specific regions. The fungi's spores can be stirred into the air by anything that disrupts the soil, such as farming, construction and wind. The fungi can then be breathed into the lungs and cause valley fever, also known as acute coccidioidomycosis (kok-sid-e-oy-doh-my-KOH-sis). Mild cases of valley fever usually resolve on their own. In more severe cases, doctors prescribe antifungal medications that can treat the underlying infection. Symptoms Valley fever is the initial form of coccidioidomycosis infection. This initial, acute illness can develop into a more serious disease, including chronic and disseminated coccidioidomycosis."

"text": "Coccidioides immitis Overview: Coccidioides immitis is a dimorphic fungus that causes coccidioidomycosis or Valley Fever ( Figure 1 ). This organism grows as a mould in the soil of warm and dry areas with low rain fall, and hence is endemic in certain parts of Arizona, California, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Utah and northwestern Mexico. The arthroconidia (arthrospores) produced by the hyphae are the infectious units of the organism. When they are inhaled, they produce spherules, thus propagating the infection. C. immitis colonies grow rapidly. The hematogenous spread of the pathogen in the host’s bloodstream results in infection of skin, bones, joints, lymph nodes, adrenal glands, and central nervous system. Figure 1. Arthroconidia of Coccidioides immitis. Life Cycle: The organism follows the saprophytic cycle in the soil and the parasitic cycle in vertebrates. The saprophytic cycle starts in the soil with arthrospores (mould form) that develop into mycelium."

"text": "\"Foxtail grasses can be lethal to dogs By Dog Heirs Team | June 11, 2012 | Comments (0)Sign up for our newsletter and get stories like this and more from Dog Heirs delivered straight to your inbox!Foxtails are grasses with seed awns that are extremely dangerous to dogs. Foxtail awns are barbed, razor-sharp needles, designed to burrow into the ground with the seed. However, they can also burrow through a dog's skin and enter soft tissue where they can cause serious injury, infection and death. Foxtails are found most often on wild barley grasses and grow to be 2 to 5 feet in height and have a top with hairlike needles that ressemble a fox's tail. In some varieties the spikelets (top) look like common barley or rye grass. Not all foxtails have lethal awns, but grasses such as foxtail barley and foxtail grass have particularly nasty awns. Other kinds of grass, such as Ripgut brome and Canada wild rye, also have potentially dangerous awns. Like a bullet, a foxtail's torpedo-shaped awns can penetrate any part of a dog's body. The awns most commonly lodge in a dog's nose, ears, underbelly, rear end and paws. Long-haired dogs are particularly susceptible, as the barbed foxtail stays attached to the dog's fur and are difficult to spot in long fur."

"text": "A mysterious and dangerous lung infection with no known cure is quietly infecting thousands of men, women and children in America. The quiet killer destroys brain cells, causes strokes, seizures, painful stomach ulcers and horrific skin lesions. Doctors have no idea how wide spread the disease is: many cases go unreported or receive a wrong diagnosis. The statistics, as reported, are scary enough. The American Lung Association defines cocci, also known as “Valley Fever”, stating, “Coccidioidomycosis (cocci) is an infection of the lungs caused by inhaling spores of the fungus Coccidioides immitis. This fungus is present in the soil of the southwestern United States including California as well as parts of Central and South America. ”When you are digging in the dirt, are you digging up more than you bargained for? Tillers of the soil, farmers, migrant workers, home gardeners, construction workers, horticultural workers and desert recreational users are among the many that regularly work with the soil and breathe the resulting dust. Lungs are infected when air containing the frightening fungi is inhaled. Persons with compromised immune systems, asthma, COPD or otherwise breathing challenged, are especially vulnerable."

Print History The differential diagnosis of acute lymphadenopathy is broad. A patient's medical history and review of systems is important in narrowing this differential. Upon examination, recognizing the pattern of lymph drainage aids in seeking an infectious focus. [ 6]Although the underlying etiology is often self-limited infection, more serious underlying etiologies must be quickly recognized. Serious infections and malignancies are important considerations, as discussed in Outline - Etiologies of Lymphadenopathy. In adolescents, screening for intravenous drug use and sexual activity is important. Physical Assess the size, location, and character of the adenopathy, along with any associated physical findings. Erythema, tenderness, warmth, and fluctuance suggests lymphadenitis, and nodes that are fixed (nonmoveable), matted together, firm, and nontender suggest malignancy, although this distinction is not invariable. Recognize that most children have palpable lymph nodes in the anterior cervical, inguinal, and axillary regions that, if evaluated by adult standards, would qualify as lymphadenopathy. Lymphoid mass steadily increases after birth until age 8-12 years, and undergoes progressive atrophy during puberty. ["

Directly interior to the fibrous capsule is the subcapsular sinus. This allows lymph, an ultrafiltrate of blood, to traverse from the afferent lymph vessels, through the sinuses, and out the efferent vessels. The sinuses are studded with macrophages, which remove 99% of all delivered antigens. Interior to the subcapsular sinus is the cortex, which contains primary follicles, secondary follicles, and the interfollicular zone. Follicles within the cortex are major sites of B-cell proliferation, whereas the interfollicular zone is the site of antigen-dependent T-cell differentiation and proliferation. The deepest structure within the lymph node is the medulla, consisting of cords of plasma cells and small B lymphocytes that facilitate immunoglobulin secretion into the exiting lymph. The lymph node, with its high concentration of lymphocytes and antigen-presenting cells, is an ideal organ for receiving antigens that gain access through the skin or gastrointestinal tract. Nodes have considerable capacity for growth and change. Lymph node size depends on the person's age, the location of the lymph node in the body, and antecedent immunological events."

Although genetically distinct, the 2 species are morphologically identical. A Coccidioides immitis spherule containing endospores. Courtesy of Thomas Matthew. View Media Gallery Few immunologic differences are noted between the 2 species of Coccidioides, and the manifestations of infection with either organism are assumed to be identical; however, this hypothesis has not been formally tested. For all intents and purposes, all subsequent references to C immitis in this article also apply to C posadasii. See A Chronic, Scaly Rash Mistaken for MRSA: Case Presentation, a Critical Images slideshow, to review additional images and details of a case of Coccidioidomycosis. Clinical aspects Coccidioidomycosis is typically transmitted by inhalation of airborne spores of C immitis or C posadasii (see Etiology). Infection occurs in endemic areas and is most commonly acquired in the summer or the late fall during outdoor activities. Travelers to endemic areas are at risk for contracting the disease, which may not become clinically evident until after they have returned home. ["

A solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN) is a single abnormality in the lung that is smaller than 3 cm in diameter. Generally, a pulmonary nodule must grow to at least 1 cm in diameter before it can be seen on a chest X-ray film. A solitary pulmonary nodule is surrounded by normal lung tissue and is not associated with any other abnormality in the lung or nearby lymph nodes (small, bean-shaped structures found throughout the body). Persons with solitary pulmonary nodules usually do not experience symptoms. Solitary pulmonary nodules are usually noticed by chance on a chest X-ray film that has been taken for another reason (referred to as an incidental finding). Solitary pulmonary nodules are one of the most common abnormalities seen on chest X-ray films. Approximately 150,000 cases are detected every year as incidental findings, either on X-ray films or CT scans. Most solitary pulmonary nodules are benign (noncancerous); however, they may represent an early stage of primary lung cancer or may indicate that cancer is metastasizing (spreading) from another part of the body to the lung."

Like the other true-pathogenic, systemic human fungal diseases histoplasmosis, blastomycosis, and paracoccidioidomycosis, Coccidioidomycosis starts out as a lung disease caused by inhalation of the conidia, shown to the left. Most often the disease causes mild flu-like symptoms, but usually is resolved in the lungs. This fungus is a dimorphic pathogen, which means it can change from the room-temperature hyphal form at to the body-temperature spherule form (shown to the right) containing endospores. These endospores can be transported by the bloodstream to other parts of the body, particularly to the brain and central nervous system, where they can germinate and grow to cause even more severe disease. The dimorphism helps the fungus to evade the immune system by the changing of the surface antigens of the fungus. The disease often begins as a benign, inapparent or mildly severe upper respiratory infection that usually resolves rapidly. Recovery from mild forms of the disease usually results in lifelong immunity to reinfection. However, if there are enough spores inhaled, or if the person's immune system is compromised in some way, the disease can spread to other parts of the body, Rarely the disease is an acute or chronic severe disseminating fatal mycosis. If infection is established, the disease may progress as a chronic pulmonary condition or as a systemic disease involving the meninges (lining of the brain), bones, joints, and subcutaneous and cutaneous tissues."

These nodules may be painful and are most commonly found in the front of the legs below the knees. The onset of erythema nodosum usually occurs between the ages of 18 and 34, and is four times more likely to afflict women. Erythema nodosum can be caused by an underlying infection or an allergic reaction to certain medications. However, in approximately 50 percent of erythema nodosum cases, there is no discernible cause. Symptoms associated with erythema nodosum usually subside within three to four weeks. Erythema nodosum does not usually require any medical intervention and usually resolves itself within six weeks. However, even after the condition has cleared, the afflicted area may have a temporary bruised appearance or leave a chronic indentation in the skin. Symptoms The hallmark symptom of erythema nodosum is the occurrence of red nodules that develop on a fatty layer, which is found directly beneath the skin."

Although two-thirds of those infected suffer no symptoms, and the illness is not contagious, about 160 people die each year when the fungus spreads beyond the lungs to the brain.

Symptoms Treatment Systemic-Onset JRAWhat Is Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis? Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA), often referred to by doctors today as juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), is a type of arthritis that causes joint inflammation and stiffness for more than six weeks in a child aged 16 or younger. It affects approximately 50,000 children in the United States. Inflammation causes redness, swelling, warmth, and soreness in the joints, although many children with JRA do not complain of joint pain. Any joint can be affected, and inflammation may limit the mobility of affected joints. JRA is an autoimmune disorder, which means that the body mistakenly identifies some of its own cells and tissues as foreign. The immune system, which normally helps to fight off harmful, foreign substances such as bacteria or viruses, begins to attack healthy cells and tissues. The result is inflammation -- marked by redness, heat, pain, and swelling. Researchers still don't know exactly why the immune system goes awry in children who develop JRA, although they suspect that it's a two-step process."

"text": "Practice Essentials Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA) is the most common chronic rheumatologic disease in children and is one of the most common chronic diseases of childhood (see the image below). The etiology is unknown, and the genetic component is complex, making clear distinctions between the various subtypes difficult. A new nomenclature, juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), is being increasingly used to provide better definition of subgroups. Eighteen-month-old girl with arthritis in her right knee. Note the flexion contracture of that knee. Signs and symptoms History findings in children with JIA may include the following: Arthritis present for at least 6 weeks before diagnosis (mandatory for diagnosis of JIA)Either insidious or abrupt disease onset, often with morning stiffness or gelling phenomenon and arthralgia during the day Complaints of joint pain or abnormal joint use History of school absences or limited ability to participate in physical education classes Spiking fevers occurring once or twice each day at about the same time of day Evanescent rash on the trunk and extremities Psoriasis or more subtle dermatologic manifestations Physical findings are important to provide criteria for diagnosis and to detect abnormalities suggestive of alternative etiologies, as well as to indicate disease subtypes. Such findings include the following: Arthritis: Defined either as intra-articular swelling on examination or as limitation of joint motion in association with pain, warmth, or erythema of the joint; physical findings in JIA reflect the extent of joint involvement Synovitis: Characterized by synovial proliferation and increased joint volume; the joint is held in a position of maximum comfort, and range of motion often is limited only at the extremes Types of JIA include the following: Systemic-onset juvenile idiopathic arthritis Oligoarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis Polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis Psoriatic arthritis Enthesitis-related arthritis Undifferentiated arthritis See Clinical Presentation for more detail. Diagnosis Diagnosis of JIA is based on the history and physical examination findings. When physical findings do not document definite arthritis, further evaluation is warranted. Laboratory studies that may be considered include the following: Inflammatory markers: Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) or CRP level Complete blood count (CBC) and metabolic panel Liver function tests and assessment of renal function with serum creatinine levels Antinuclear antibody (ANA) testing Rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti–cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) antibody Additional studies: Total protein, albumin, fibrinogen, ferritin, D-dimer, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), antistreptolysin 0 (AS0), anti-DNAse B, urinalysis When only a single joint is affected, radiography is important to exclude other diseases."

The Rheumatoid Arthritis - Osteoporosis Link Osteoporosis Management Strategies What Is Rheumatoid Arthritis? Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease, a disorder in which the body attacks its own healthy cells and tissues. When someone has rheumatoid arthritis, the membranes around his or her joints become inflamed and release enzymes that cause the surrounding cartilage and bone to wear away. In severe cases, other tissues and body organs also can be affected. Individuals with rheumatoid arthritis often experience pain, swelling, and stiffness in their joints, especially those in the hands and feet. Motion can be limited in the affected joints, curtailing one’s ability to accomplish even the most basic everyday tasks. About one-quarter of those with rheumatoid arthritis develop nodules (bumps) that grow under the skin, usually close to the joints."

"text": "Abstract Full Text Figures References Cited by PDFKeywords: CPPD = calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate Radiography is commonly used in the evaluation for arthritis. A basic algorithm based on radiographic findings can be followed to reach a final and usually correct diagnosis ( Fig 1 ). While it is impossible to include all forms of arthritis with their variations into one scheme, this algorithm can be used as a framework for evaluation, as it encompasses the most frequent radiographic features of common arthritides. The starting point for the algorithm is joint space narrowing. The next step is to determine if the joint process is inflammatory or degenerative. While an inflammatory condition is suggested by osteopenia and soft-tissue swelling, it is the presence of bone erosions that is the characteristic finding of inflammation. Early erosions will appear as discontinuities of the thin, white, subchondral bone plate, commonly involving the joint margins ( Fig 2 ). Uniform joint space narrowing may also be present. In contrast, a degenerative cause of joint space narrowing is characterized by osteophytes; bone sclerosis; subchondral cysts, or geodes; asymmetric joint space narrowing; and lack of inflammatory features such as bone erosions ( Fig 3 ). In part 1 of this review ( 1 ), common inflammatory arthritides were discussed."

In common speech, you may consider the terms synonymous. Rheumatic diseases are a group of diseases and conditions that are characterized by inflammation (typically with redness, heat, and swelling) and impaired function of one or more connecting or supporting structures of the body. Primarily, rheumatic diseases affect the joints, tendons, ligaments, bones, and muscles. Pain, stiffness, and swelling are common symptoms associated with rheumatic diseases, but there can also be systemic effects with certain conditions (i.e., may affect internal organs). Also, because of the effect on the joints, tendons, ligaments, bones, and muscles, these conditions are also referred to as musculoskeletal diseases. Article Systemic Sclerosis: Treatment Options for Patients Article Tips for Living Well With Systemic Sclerosis If we want to be literal, using strict accuracy, arthritis is one aspect of the rheumatic diseases which affect the musculoskeletal system. Who Is Affected? It is estimated that 52.5 million people in the U. S. have arthritis or one of the rheumatic diseases, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)."

We want to assure the best possible functional outcome - that means that children are able to function well in daily life, going to school every day and ultimately holding jobs and raising families like everyone else. To accomplish this, we must assure that we do our best to prevent underlying damage to their joints, bones, eyes, and other organs that can be damaged by the various types of arthritis that afflict children. In the past all children with arthritis were lumped together under the name \"\"juvenile rheumatoid arthritis\"\" or JRA. Today, JRA is no longer an appropriate name because we know that there are many different causes of arthritis in children, just as there are in adults. Almost all of the different rheumatic diseases seen in adults also occur in childhood. So what we now call juvenile idiopathic arthritis (idiopathic means of unknown cause) or \"\"juvenile inflammatory arthritis \"\" - or JIA - has been divided into eight subtypes and in the future will probably be divided even further:oligoarthritis;extended oligoarthritis;rheumatoid factor negative (RF-) polyarthritis;rheumatoid factor positive (RF+) polyarthritis (also called early onset rheumatoid arthritis);systemic onset arthritis;arthritis associated with psoriasis;arthritis associated with enthesitis;arthritis associated with infection (also known as reactive arthritis). Even this list doesn't cover every cause of childhood arthritis. There are many other causes of arthritis in childhood. These include systemic lupus erythematosus, dermatomyositis, scleroderma, Kawasaki's disease, and systemic onset vasculitis. ("

Lymph glands (nodes) are located in many places in the lymphatic system throughout the body. Lymph nodes filter the lymphatic fluid and store special cells that can trap cancer cells or bacteria that are traveling through the body in the lymph fluid. The lymph nodes are critical for the body's immune response and are principal sites where many immune reactions are initiated. Groups of lymph nodes are found in the neck, around the collarbone, in the armpit (axilla), and in the groin. Lymph nodes in the groin region are referred to as inguinal lymph nodes. During a physical examination, a doctor may feel (palpate) these areas to look for swollen or enlarged lymph glands. Swelling of the lymph glands is typically a result of local or widespread inflammation, but sometimes enlarged lymph nodes are due to cancer. Swollen lymph glands are referred to as lymphadenopathy."

These types of infections are caused by bacteria, virus, yeast, fungus, and parasitic organisms. These pathogenic organisms affect the gastrointestinal tract, and go on to cause infections in the stomach and the intestines. The infection-causing microorganisms in the gastrointestinal tract can lead to inflammation, besides a host of other related symptoms. Symptoms will vary according to the type of infection.

"text": "Overview Viral gastroenteritis is an intestinal infection marked by watery diarrhea, abdominal cramps, nausea or vomiting, and sometimes fever. The most common way to develop viral gastroenteritis — often called stomach flu — is through contact with an infected person or by ingesting contaminated food or water. If you're otherwise healthy, you'll likely recover without complications. But for infants, older adults and people with compromised immune systems, viral gastroenteritis can be deadly. There's no effective treatment for viral gastroenteritis, so prevention is key. In addition to avoiding food and water that may be contaminated, thorough and frequent hand-washings are your best defense. Symptoms Viral gastroenteritis Although it's commonly called stomach flu, gastroenteritis isn't the same as influenza. Real flu (influenza) affects only your respiratory system — your nose, throat and lungs. Gastroenteritis, on the other hand, attacks your intestines, causing signs and symptoms, such as: Watery, usually nonbloody diarrhea — bloody diarrhea usually means you have a different, more severe infection Abdominal cramps and pain Nausea, vomiting or both Occasional muscle aches or headache Low-grade fever Depending on the cause, viral gastroenteritis symptoms may appear within one to three days after you're infected and can range from mild to severe. Symptoms usually last just a day or two, but occasionally they may persist as long as 10 days."

A vaccine is an antigenic preparation used to produce active immunity to a disease, in order to prevent or reduce the effects of infection by any natural or \"\"wild\"\" pathogen. [ 1] Many vaccines require multiple doses for maximum effectiveness, either to produce sufficient initial immune response or to boost response that fades over time. For example, tetanus vaccine boosters are often recommended every 10 years. [ 2] Vaccine schedules are developed by governmental agencies or physicians groups to achieve maximum effectiveness using required and recommended vaccines for a locality while minimizing the number of health care system interactions. Over the past two decades, the recommended vaccination schedule has grown rapidly and become more complicated as many new vaccines have been developed. [ 3]Some vaccines are recommended only in certain areas (countries, sub national areas, or at-risk populations) where a disease is common. For instance, yellow fever vaccination is on the routine vaccine schedule of French Guiana, is recommended in certain regions of Brazil but in the United States is only given to travelers heading to countries with a history of the disease.

Viruses get a bad rap, but they also perform many important functions for humans, plants, animals, and the environment. For example, some viruses protect the host against other infections. Viruses also participate in the process of evolution by transferring genes among different species. In biomedical research, scientists use viruses to insert new genes into cells.

A review of Rota Teq (rotavirus vaccine live) clinical trial data revealed higher, though not statistically significantly, KD rates among Rota Teq vaccines than placebo recipients. In June 2007, the Rota Teq label was revised accordingly. Objectives: To describe and assess KD reported to Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) for all US licensed vaccines. Methods: We reviewed all KD reports received by VAERS from 1990 through mid-October 2007. Cases were characterized by age, gender, onset interval, and vaccine type. Proportional reporting ratio (PRR) was used to evaluate KD reporting for each vaccine compared with all others. Reporting rates were calculated using number of doses distributed as denominator. Results: Through October 14, 2007, 107 KD reports were received by VAERS: 26 were categorized as classic cases, 19 atypical, 52 possible, and 10 were noncases. Of the 97 cases, 91% were children <5 years."

The vaccine, called Rota Teq®, is given as a series of three doses by mouth at 2 months, 4 months and 6 months of age and can be given with other vaccines typically administered at those times. A second vaccine, called Rotarix®, was approved for use in June 2008 and is given as a series of two doses by mouth at 2 months and 4 months of age. The disease What is rotavirus? Rotavirus is a virus that infects the lining of the intestines. Although not typically known by its name, most parents recognize rotavirus by its symptoms — high fever, persistent and severe vomiting and diarrhea. By 5 years of age nearly all children have been infected with rotavirus. Before the vaccine, each year in the United States, rotavirus caused: Illness in 2.7 million children, usually between 6 months and 24 months of age500,000 doctor visits55,000 to 70,000 hospitalizations20 to 60 deaths The vaccine How is the rotavirus vaccine made?

Lew, MD Charles W. Le Baron, MD Roger I. Glass, MD Tom Torok, MD Patricia M. Griffin, MD Joy G. Wells, MS Dennis D. Juranek, DVM Suzanne P. Wahlquist, MSSUMMARYRecent discoveries have implicated a number of \"\"new\"\" (i.e., previously unrecognized) infectious agents as important causes of outbreaks of gastroenteritis. Unfortunately, the ability to detect these agents in an outbreak can be limited by two factors:the lack of appropriate assays--many of which are still in developmental stages and are not readily available to clinical laboratories, and 2) inadequately or improperly collected specimens. At CDC, many newly developed assays are being used for research and for outbreak investigations. The information in this report is especially intended for public health agencies that collaborate with CDC in investigating outbreaks of gastroenteritis. The report provides an update on guidelines and recommendations for the proper collection of specimens to be sent to CDC, gives general background information concerning some recently discovered pathogens, lists some of the tests available at CDC, and provides a list of CDC contacts. (*) The guidelines and the general information provided on causes of outbreaks of gastroenteritis can be also used by public health workers for investigations when specific testing is available and appropriate. (*) Testing at CDC is for research purposes and/or outbreak evaluations in collaboration with state and local health departments. Specimens should not be sent to CDC without prior discussion a) first, with the appropriate state health department and b) second, with the appropriate CDC laboratory. If an outbreak of gastroenteritis occurs and CDC's assistance is needed, early contact with appropriate persons at CDC for information about specimen collection is strongly encouraged."

"text": "Overview Viral gastroenteritis is an intestinal infection marked by watery diarrhea, abdominal cramps, nausea or vomiting, and sometimes fever. The most common way to develop viral gastroenteritis — often called stomach flu — is through contact with an infected person or by ingesting contaminated food or water. If you're otherwise healthy, you'll likely recover without complications. But for infants, older adults and people with compromised immune systems, viral gastroenteritis can be deadly. There's no effective treatment for viral gastroenteritis, so prevention is key. In addition to avoiding food and water that may be contaminated, thorough and frequent hand-washings are your best defense. Symptoms Viral gastroenteritis Although it's commonly called stomach flu, gastroenteritis isn't the same as influenza. Real flu (influenza) affects only your respiratory system — your nose, throat and lungs. Gastroenteritis, on the other hand, attacks your intestines, causing signs and symptoms, such as: Watery, usually nonbloody diarrhea — bloody diarrhea usually means you have a different, more severe infection Abdominal cramps and pain Nausea, vomiting or both Occasional muscle aches or headache Low-grade fever Depending on the cause, viral gastroenteritis symptoms may appear within one to three days after you're infected and can range from mild to severe. Symptoms usually last just a day or two, but occasionally they may persist as long as 10 days."

"text": "Rotavirus Infections in Cats The rotavirus is a double-stranded, wheel-shaped RNA virus which causes inflammation of the intestines and in severe cases, dysfunction in the intestinal walls. This virus is the leading cause of diarrhea and gastrointestinal upset in cats. And although it can be seen in cats at any age, kittens are more prone to rotavirus infections. Dogs are also susceptible to rotavirus infections. If you would like to learn more about how this disease affects dogs, please visit this page in the Pet MD health library. Symptoms and Types The primary symptom of a rotavirus infection is mild to moderate watery diarrhea. In severe cases, cats may die from dehydration, extreme weight loss, and/or an unwillingness to eat. Causes The rotavirus is typically transmitted through contact with contaminated fecal matter. Cats with underdeveloped or weak immune systems and those living in overly stressed environments are most at risk for the infection. Diagnosis Your veterinarian will try to rule out the following causes for intestinal inflammation before diagnosing rotavirus: feline parvovirus, feline leukemia virus (Fe LV), feline coronavirus, feline astrovirus, and feline calicivirus."

Illinois opted to expand Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) to adults with income up to 133 percent of the poverty level (plus a built-in 5 percent income disregard, making the eligibility threshold 138 percent of the poverty level). The new eligibility guidelines resulted in a net increase of more than 486,000 people in the Medicaid program in the first three years after expansion was implemented. Far more Illinois residents have enrolled in expanded Medicaid than the state expected. Although that means the state will receive more federal Medicaid funding than projected, it also means Illinois will have to pay more than projected, as the state will eventually be responsible for 10 percent of the cost of providing coverage for the newly eligible population. Medicaid funding for enhanced mental health care? In September 2016, Illinois officials requested permission from the federal government to use existing Medicaid funds (with no changes to eligibility or funding) to test different approaches to treating Medicaid enrollees who need mental health and/or substance abuse treatment. If approved by CMS, the changes would take effect in July 2017. The idea is to focus more on preventive care, supportive housing services, and community-based care, rather than institutional care. The state notes that while 25 percent of Illinois Medicaid enrollees have mental health and/or substance abuse diagnoses, their treatment accounts for 56 percent of the Medicaid program’s total cost."

"text": "Q: Does the Affordable Care Act allow states to confiscate the estates of seniors on Medicaid when they die? A: No, but a 1993 federal law requires states to recover Medicaid costs for long-term care from the estates of deceased Medicaid beneficiaries over the age of 55. FULL QUESTIONAs The Seattle Times notes: “If you’re 55 or over, Medicaid can come back after you’re dead and bill your estate for ordinary health-care expenses.” Is this in/part of the Affordable Care Act? Does Obamacare and the Medicaid expansion allow states to confiscate the estates of seniors when they die? FULL ANSWERThe Seattle Times published an article on Dec. 15, under the headline “Expanded Medicaid’s fine print holds surprise: ‘payback’ from estate after death,” that said: “If you’re 55 or over, Medicaid can come back after you’re dead and bill your estate for ordinary health-care expenses.” The Times is right that the state of Washington has this power, but it was not in the “fine print” of the Affordable Care Act (as the story itself makes clear). All states have had the option since Medicaid began in 1965 to recover some Medicaid costs from recipients after they die, as the Department of Health and Human Services explains in a 2005 policy brief. In 1965, it was optional and states could only recoup Medicaid costs spent on those 65 years or older. That changed in 1993, when Congress passed an omnibus budget bill that required states to recover the expense of long-term care and related costs for deceased Medicaid recipients 55 or older."

"text": "Sep. 28, 2015 at 6:30 AM33 Million Americans Still Don’t Have Health Insurance Here’s who they are. By Anna Maria Barry-Jester and Ben Casselman Filed under Obamacare Nearly 9 million people gained insurance last year, a win for “Obamacare” as the president’s signature health care law expanded Medicaid and opened health insurance exchanges. And yet, 33 million Americans, 10.4 percent of the U. S. population, still went without health insurance for the entirety of 2014. Millions more were uninsured for at least part of the year. 1 New data released this month shows they were disproportionately poor, black and Hispanic; 4.5 million of them were children. It isn’t a surprise that some Americans still don’t have health insurance. Despite aiming to insure “ everybody ” in the U. S., the Affordable Care Act (ACA) left significant gaps in coverage, and decisions made by the law’s opponents have denied benefits to millions of people it was designed to help. But the new numbers reveal that most of the uninsured last year were people who should have been able to access insurance under the law. That presents a major challenge for President Obama in the final years of his term, but also an opportunity: Millions of Americans qualify for coverage but, for whatever combination of reasons, haven’t yet signed up. The White House has said it will focus this year’s enrollment push on the remaining uninsured."

This fact is even considered important by the government which lead in making legal provisions that support and provide the need of healthcare for its constituents. In 2010, the Affordable Care Act introduced by the U. S. federal government had made changes in the healthcare programs. Medicaid and Medicare are the most famous healthcare programs in United States. Hardly anyone knows the difference between both the terms. Though, they are different in spelling actually, many persons end up mistaking one for the other. The U. S. government supports both the Medicare and the Medicaid.

S. covering nearly 70 million Americans. 1 States design and administer their own Medicaid programs within federal requirements, and states and the federal government finance the program jointly. Medicaid plays many roles in our health care system (Figure 1). Medicaid coverage facilitates access to care for beneficiaries, covering a wide range of benefits and tightly limiting out-of-pocket costs for care. As a major payer, Medicaid is a core source of financing for safety-net hospitals and health centers that serve low-income communities, including many of the uninsured. It is also the main source of coverage and financing for both nursing home and community-based long-term care. Altogether, Medicaid finances 16% of total personal health spending in the U. S. Figure 1: Medicaid’s Role in Our Health Care System The Affordable Care Act (ACA), enacted on March 23, 2010, expanded the Medicaid program significantly as part of a broader plan to cover millions of uninsured Americans. 2 Specifically, the ACA expanded Medicaid eligibility to nearly all non-elderly adults with income at or below 138% of the federal poverty level (FPL) – about $16,245 for an individual in 2015. This expansion established a new coverage pathway for millions of uninsured adults who were previously excluded from Medicaid, beginning January 1, 2014. The law also provided for 100% federal funding of the expansion through 2016, declining gradually to 90% in 2020 and future years."

Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (Medicaid administrator) logo Medicaid in the United States is a joint federal and state program that helps with medical costs for some people with limited income and resources. Medicaid also offers benefits not normally covered by Medicare, like nursing home care and personal care services. The Health Insurance Association of America describes Medicaid as a \"\"government insurance program for persons of all ages whose income and resources are insufficient to pay for health care\"\". [ 1] Medicaid is the largest source of funding for medical and health-related services for people with low income in the United States, providing free health insurance to 74 million low-income and disabled people (as of 2017). [ 2] It is a means-tested program that is jointly funded by the state and federal governments and managed by the states, [3] with each state currently having broad leeway to determine who is eligible for its implementation of the program. States are not required to participate in the program, although all have since 1982. Medicaid recipients must be U. S. citizens or legal permanent residents, and may include low-income adults, their children, and people with certain disabilities. Poverty alone does not necessarily qualify someone for Medicaid. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (\"\"Obamacare\"\") significantly expanded both eligibility for and federal funding of Medicaid."

Policy and Billing Guidance Increasing Colorectal Cancer Screening in New York State All men and women aged 50-75 should be screened for colorectal cancer. Research indicates that the willingness of adults to access colorectal cancer screening tests depends on multiple factors, including physician recommendation, individual disease risk, and personal preference ¹. Discussing the importance of CRC screening tests with your patients is critically important to their use of these preventive services. Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer diagnosed in men and women in the United States, excluding skin cancers, and the third leading cause of cancer-related death in New York State (NYS). More than 10,000 new cases of colorectal cancer are diagnosed and approximately 3,500 men and women die from the disease each year in NYS. The five year survival rate for persons who received a diagnosis of localized colorectal cancer is 90.3%, compared with 70.4% for regional-stage cancer and 12.5% for distant-stage cancer ². Colorectal cancer screening tests have been proven to reduce mortality through detection of early-stage cancer and detection of adenomatous polyps before they progress into cancer, however, in NYS, only 69.4 percent of men and women aged 50 to 75 report being up-to-date with colorectal cancer screening ³. 4, 5. This is below the New York State Department of Health Prevention Agenda goal of 71.4 percent by December 31, 2017, (6) and well below screening rates for breast and cervical cancers. The table below lists statewide results for the different product lines in NYS for 2011.

"text": "\"While they sound alike, Medicare and Medicaid are two different programs. Both can help you pay for health care and medical expenses. But Medicare is an age-based, federal health insurance program that guarantees coverage for individuals aged 65 and over – and some younger people with disabilities – while Medicaid is a public-assistance program for needy Americans of all ages. Here’s how to tell them apart and discover whether you qualify for either or both of them. Medicare Think of Medicare as a health insurance policy offered to the senior-citzen set, along with people under 65 who are disabled in certain ways. It is is considered an entitlement: If you paid Medicare taxes on your earnings while working (they're usually taken out of your paycheck automatically, just like Social Security contributions), you are automatically eligible for Medicare at age 65. It is not income-based. Benefits under Medicare Medicare comes in four parts (to learn more, see Medicare 101: Do You Need All 4 Parts? ). Some parts require payment of a monthly premium similar to private health insurance, but the program is not based on financial need.

The goal of these health care programs is to ensure that essential health care services are made available to those who otherwise do not have the financial resources to purchase them. It is very important that individuals and families obtain health care coverage. In Michigan, there are many health care programs available to children, adults, and families. Specific coverages may vary depending on the program and the applicant's citizenship status (some non-citizens may be limited to coverage of emergency services only).

"text": "Leukemia In The Young – Incidence And Survival Statistics Published on: October 15th, 2012Article by: Anthony Wilson Filed under: Leukemia, Statistics Leukemia is the most common form of childhood cancer. In the United States, leukemia affects around 3,500 children aged 0-14 each year which represents around 40% of all childhood cancers. In young adults, leukemia rates are somewhat lower but the disease is still one of the 5 most common forms of cancer in the 15-39 age group. Childhood leukemia rates in the USA have been increasing steadily by around 1% a year for the past half century. The reasons for this increase have not been established although some research has suggested increased exposure to electro-magnetic fields may explain at least part of the rise. Despite the rise in leukemia rates, deaths from the disease have actually fallen by more than 50% since 1975 due to newer chemotherapeutic agents delivering much higher cure rates. Although leukemia is the most common cause of death by disease in childhood, the chances of a child dying from leukemia are still very low – only about 1 in 10,000. Leukemia rates peak between the ages of 2 and 5 at around 9 cases per 100,000 per year and fall to a low of around 3 per 100,000 for young adults. To put these rates in perspective: the chances of a teenager being seriously injured or dying in a motor vehicle accident in the United States are around 50 per 100,000 per year – more than 10 times the rate of leukemia in that age group. There are four major types of leukemia: chronic myeloid (or myelogenous) leukemia (CML), acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), and acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL)."

"text": "Abstract Although ibrutinib and idelalisib are profound treatment advances, they will dramatically increase individual out-of-pocket and societal costs of caring for patients with CLL. Purpose: To evaluate the impact of approval of ibrutinib and idelalisib on pharmaceutical costs in the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) at the societal level and assess individual out-of-pocket costs under Medicare Part D. Methods: Average wholesale price of commonly used CLL treatment regimens was ascertained from national registries. Using the population of Olmsted County, Minnesota, we identified the proportion of patients with newly diagnosed CLL who experience progression to the point of requiring treatment. Using these data, total pharmaceutical cost over a 10-year period after diagnosis was estimated for a hypothetic cohort of 100 newly diagnosed patients under three scenarios: before approval of ibrutinib and idelalisib (historical scenario), after approval of ibrutinib and idelalisib as salvage therapy (current scenarios A and B), and assuming use of ibrutinib as first-line treatment (potential future scenario). Results: Estimated 10-year pharmaceutical costs for 100 newly diagnosed patients were as follows: $4,565,929 (approximately $45,659 per newly diagnosed patient and $157,446 per treated patient) for the historical scenario, $7,794,843 (approximately $77,948 per newly diagnosed patient and $268,788 per treated patient) for current scenario A, $6,309,162 (approximately $63,092 per newly diagnosed patient and $217,557 per treated patient) for current scenario B, and $16,414,055 (approximately $164,141 per newly diagnosed patient and $566,002 per treated patient) for the potential future scenario. Total out-of-pocket cost for 100 patients with newly diagnosed CLL under Medicare Part D increased from $9,426 under the historical scenario (approximately $325 per treated patient) to $363,830 and $255,051 under current scenarios A and B (approximately $8,800 to $12,500 per treated patient) and to $1,031,367 (approximately $35,564 per treated patient) under the future scenario. Conclusion: Although ibrutinib and idelalisib are profound treatment advances, they will dramatically increase individual out-of-pocket and societal costs of caring for patients with CLL. These cost considerations may undermine the potential promise of these agents by limiting access and reducing adherence. Introduction Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common leukemia in the Western world, and approximately 150,000 individuals in the United States are currently living with this disease. 1 Most patients with CLL are diagnosed with early-stage disease and are managed with observation until symptoms develop."

"text": "\"Myelodysplastic Syndromes Mikkael A. Sekeres Michael Keng Published: April 2014Contents Definition Historically, the myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) have been referred to as oligoblastic leukemia, refractory anemia, smoldering acute leukemia, or preleukemia. They represent a group of heterogeneous hematopoietic disorders derived from an abnormal multipotent progenitor cell, characterized by ineffective hematopoiesis, bone marrow failure, peripheral blood cytopenias, and reduced survival. MDS may be classified as indolent or aggressive (lower- or higher-risk), depending on life expectancy and likelihood of progression to acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Back to Top Prevalence and Risk Factors The precise incidence rate of MDS in the United States is still evolving. This may be in part due to the difficulty of defining MDS in the setting of changing classification systems. However, most studies report that MDS affects between 12,000 and 20,000 people in the United States each year. Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) and North American Association of Central Cancer Registries, Inc. (NAACCR) data report an incidence rate of 4.5 per 100,000 people in 2006. In general, MDS is a disease of older adults, with a median age at diagnosis of approximately 71 years with a male predominance. With the exception of treatment-induced MDS (MDS that develops following chemotherapy or radiation treatment for another cancer), age of onset prior to 50 is uncommon. Risk factors for developing MDS include the following: Age: Population studies in England have found that the crude yearly incidence rate increases from 0.5 per 100,000 people younger than 50 years to 89 per 100,000 people older than 80 years."

"text": "Leukemia By Matthew Cenzon. May 7th 2016Leukemia is a form of cancer that affects blood-forming tissue, primarily the lymphatic system and bone marrow. The condition is similar to other types of cancer and occurs when white blood cells replicate uncontrollably. Leukemia is actually a blanket term that can refer to a spectrum of related cancers. There are certain types of leukemia that are limited to children, while others occur primarily in adults. Understanding Leukemia When bone marrow makes and excessively abnormal amount of white blood cells, the function of other, normal cells is affected. These abnormal white blood cells can be looked at as leukemia cells. As leukemia cells continue to replicate, they start to crowd normal white and red blood cells, along with platelets. White blood cells help the body by fighting infection, red blood cells allow oxygen to be transported throughout the body, and platelets help form blood clots that can neutralize bleeding. Leukemia cells prevent these normal cells from carrying out their regular function."

Myelodysplastic Syndrome Definition Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is a disease that is associated with decreased production of blood cells. Blood cells are produced in the bone marrow, and the blood cells of people with MDS do not mature normally. There are three major types of blood cells—red blood cells, whiteblood cells and platelets. Patients with MDS can have decreased production of one, two, or allthree types of blood cells. Description Blood cells are used in the body for many different and important functions, such as carryingoxygen (red blood cells), fighting infection (white blood cells), and controlling bleeding (platelets). Blood cells are formed and stored in the bone marrow, which is the spongy tissue inside largebones. Stem cells, or immature blood cells, are stored in the bone marrow and have the ability to develop into all three types of mature blood cells. When the body needs a specific type of bloodcell, the bone marrow uses its stockpile of stem cells to produce the kind of mature cells neededfor that particular situation. In patients who have MDS, blood cells fail to mature normally."

CLL is a disorder of morphologically mature but immunologically less mature lymphocytes and is manifested by progressive accumulation of these cells in the blood, bone marrow, and lymphatic tissues. [ 2] In this disorder, lymphocyte counts in the blood are usually greater than or equal to 5,000/mm 3 with a characteristic immunophenotype (CD5- and CD23-positive B cells). [ 3, 4 ] As assays have become more sensitive for detecting monoclonal B-CLL–like cells in peripheral blood, researchers have detected a monoclonal B-cell lymphocytosis in 3% of adults older than 40 years and 6% in adults older than 60 years. [ 5] Such early detection and diagnosis may falsely suggest improved survival for the group and may unnecessarily worry or result in therapy for some patients who would have remained undiagnosed in their lifetime, a circumstance known in the literature as overdiagnosis or pseudodisease. [ 6, 7]In two selected series of more than 900 patients followed prospectively for a median of 5 to 7 years, overt CLL requiring chemotherapy occurred in 7% of patients. [ 5, 8] In a database analysis and for up to 77 months before diagnosis, almost all patients with a diagnosis of CLL had prediagnostic B-cell clones that were identified in peripheral blood when available. [ 4, 9]For patients with progressing CLL, treatment with conventional doses of chemotherapy is not curative; selected patients treated with allogeneic stem cell transplantation have achieved prolonged disease-free survival.

"text": "\"Myeloproliferative Neoplasms Aaron T. Gerds, MDPublished: April 2016Contents Introduction The myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), previously termed the myeloproliferative disorders, are characterized by the clonal proliferation of one or more hematopoietic cell lineages, predominantly in the bone marrow, but sometimes in the liver and spleen. 1 In contrast to myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), MPNs demonstrate terminal myeloid cell expansion into the peripheral blood. In the 2008 revision of the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of myeloid neoplasms, MPNs include chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), chronic neutrophilic leukemia, polycythemia vera (PV), primary myelofibrosis (PMF), essential thrombocythemia (ET), chronic eosinophilic leukemia, mastocytosis, and unclassifiable MPNs. 2 MDS/MPN overlap disorders are those chronic myeloid disorders unable to be classified as \"\"classic\"\" MPN or MDS. These include chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, atypical CML, juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia, and unclassifiable MDS/MPN. Chronic myelogenous leukemia is the only MPN that is characterized by the presence of the BCR-ABL fusion gene, which is formed by translocation of the ABL gene from chromosome 9 joining to the BCR gene on chromosome 22. The altered chromosome 22 with the fusion gene is the Philadelphia chromosome. With a unique pathogenesis and treatment, CML is often considered separately from the rest of the MPNs. The most commonly recognized mutation in the remainder of the Philadelphia chromosome-negative MPNs is Janus kinase 2 ( JAK2) V617F, which is present in more than 90% of patients with PV and approximately half of those with PMF or ET ( Table 1 ). 3 This mutation substitutes phenylalanine for valine at position 617 in the JH2 domain (Val617Phe, V617F) of exon 14, leading to constitutive activation of the JAK -STAT and other pathways resulting in uncontrolled cell growth."

I was wondering what the difference was between labeling something as a “leukemia” vs labeling it as a “chronic myeloproliferative disorder.” I understand that leukemias are neoplastic proliferations of hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow, but aren’t myeloproliferative disorders the same thing? In particular, what category would chronic myelogenous leukemia be placed into? I have been grouping it with the MPDs, but then I get confused when I start to compare it to acute myelogenous leukemia, which is just labeled as a leukemia, and not a myeloproliferative disorder…? A. You are right: leukemias are neoplastic proliferations of hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow. There are two big categories of leukemias: acute leukemias and chronic leukemias. The acute leukemias are divided into acute myeloid leukemia and acute lymphoblastic leukemia; the chronic leukemias are divided into chronic myeloproliferative disorders and chronic lymphoproliferative disorders. Under these big acute and chronic categories, there are many different types of leukemia. Acute myeloid leukemia is divided into five main types: AML with genetic abnormalities (like t [8;21]), AML with FLT3 mutation, AML with multilineage dysplasia, therapy-related AML, and AML not otherwise categorized."

The authors assigned patients with an identified donor to a donor group and the other patients to a no-donor group. This method has been used in a meta-analysis involving 3103 patients. 2 However, the donor versus no-donor method must be restricted to HLA-typed patients with a sibling because the two groups are equal with respect to the initial risk and intention to transplant. The inclusion of patients who are not HLA-typed, like all those without siblings, causes bias of unknown magnitude. 3 Also, results from “receipt” of a transplant should be supported by data.

Predicting disease recurrence in patients with previous unprovoked venous thromboembolism: A proposed prediction score (DASH). J Thromb Haemost. 2012;366:1019-1025. Approximately 20 to 25 percent of those with an unprovoked venous thromboembolism (VTE) experience a recurrence within five years of the initial event. If it were possible to predict those at risk for recurrence, then, in the absence of unacceptable bleeding risk, anticoagulation might be continued “long-term,” rather than for the three to six months recommended in the CHEST 2012 guidelines. 1 Determining optimal duration of anticoagulation, however, is challenging, as VTE recurrence declines and bleeding risk increases over time. 2 Further, while individual VTE recurrence risk can be estimated based on individual risk factors (e.g., sex or D-dimer), 3 the relationship to bleeding risk, on an individual basis, is unknown as clinical trials have been insufficiently powered to generate evidenced-based recommendations. To address this problem, Tosetto and colleagues conducted a meta-analysis on pooled data from seven large prospective clinical trials that involved 1,818 patients with unprovoked VTE treated for a minimum of three months with a vitamin K antagonist. Comparing predictors of VTE recurrence and anticoagulation bleeding data, they modeled recurrence risk using Cox regression coefficients to develop a VTE recurrence prediction score."

Also documented as venous thrombosis and venous thromboembolism, DVT is classified to the following ICD-9-CM codes:• 453.40, Venous embolism and thrombosis of unspecified deep vessels of lower extremity (This includes DVT and DVT not otherwise specified [NOS]. ); ` • 453.41, Venous embolism and thrombosis of deep vessels of proximal lower extremity (This includes femoral, iliac, popliteal, thigh, and upper leg NOS. );• 453.42, Venous embolism and thrombosis of deep vessels of distal lower extremity (This includes calf, lower leg NOS, peroneal, and tibia. );• 453.8, Other venous embolism and thrombosis of other specified veins (eg, upper extremity vein);• 453.0, Hepatic vein thrombosis;• 453.2, Venous thrombosis of vena cava; and• 453.3, Venous thrombosis of renal vein. If DVT is documented as a postoperative complication or iatrogenic, first assign code 997.2, Peripheral vascular complication, not elsewhere classified, followed by the code for the specific DVT site. If PE is also present with DVT, one of the following codes may also be assigned with the code for DVT:• 415.11, Iatrogenic pulmonary embolism and infarction;• 415.12, Septic pulmonary embolism (first code the underlying infection); and• 415.19, Other pulmonary embolism and infarction. DVT and PE sequencing will depend on the circumstances of admission. In approximately one half of DVT cases, no symptoms are present."

Patients and methods This prospective study was conducted on 98 patients. Mean age was 50 years; age range was 17–88 years. All patients underwent D-Dimer assay. Multidetector CT Angiography (MDCTA) was performed on 128 row multi-slice scanner. Statistical analysis of D-Dimer test values was attempted to assess its diagnostic reliability. Patients were further stratified into two groups: patients with positive D-Dimer test and patients with negative D-Dimer test, and cut-off value patients with negative D-Dimer test and cutoff value was estimated for D-Dimer test results. Results Statistical analysis of D-Dimer test values yielded sensitivity 100%, specificity 28% with 100% negative predictive value (NPP) and low positive predictive value (26%). Likelihood ratios were NLR <0.1 and PLR <1. Cutoff value for D-Dimer test results in correlation with CT Angiography results, was 1.45 μg/ml, with diagnostic sensitivity 87% and diagnostic specificity 57%."

A real-time polymerase chain reaction ( Real-Time PCR ), also known as quantitative polymerase chain reaction (q PCR), is a laboratory technique of molecular biology based on the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). It monitors the amplification of a targeted DNA molecule during the PCR, i.e. in real-time, and not at its end, as in conventional PCR. Real-time PCR can be used quantitatively (quantitative real-time PCR), and semi-quantitatively, i.e. above/below a certain amount of DNA molecules (semi quantitative real-time PCR). Two common methods for the detection of PCR products in real-time PCR are: (1) non-specific fluorescent dyes that intercalate with any double-stranded DNA, and (2) sequence-specific DNA probes consisting of oligonucleotides that are labelled with a fluorescent reporter which permits detection only after hybridization of the probe with its complementary sequence. The Minimum Information for Publication of Quantitative Real-Time PCR Experiments (MIQE) guidelines propose that the abbreviation q PCR be used for quantitative real-time PCR and that RT-q PCR be used for reverse transcription–q PCR.

"text": "\"Discussion In this study, we have shown that implementation of a rapid whole blood D-dimer test in our ED satellite laboratory resulted in a significant decrease in the mean and median ED LOS and may have influenced the pattern of disposition away from hospital admission toward discharge or short-stay admit to observe. There was no change in the utilization of follow-up radiologic testing. The sensitivity and negative predictive value of the rapid whole blood test were equal to those of the established central laboratory VIDAS D-dimer (100%), but the rapid test exhibited somewhat greater specificity for VTE disease (73.3% vs 67.9%). The positive predictive value was poor for both tests. Rapid ED POCT for selected analytes, including cardiac markers and urine drugs of abuse, has been shown to reduce ED LOS. [ 3] Testing for other analytes, such as blood gases and electrolytes, has not been shown to impact ED LOS. [ 7, 8] Cumulatively, the literature suggests that it is important to select the appropriate menu for POCT if a positive impact on ED LOS is desired. Tests that have been shown to reduce ED LOS are those that influence a key decision point in triage, diagnosis, or disposition. Included among these are cardiac markers, drugs of abuse, and, now, D-dimer. In contrast, tests that are used primarily to assist in patient management, such as routine chemistry tests, have not been shown in published studies to improve ED LOS."

We can only make vitamin D when solar UV stimulates our skin. Otherwise, we have to add it to our diet. However, most UV, especially the more energetic photons of UV-B, causes harm. These photons damage our cells and organs by producing chemical changes in important molecules, especially proteins and nucleic acids. The lens of the eye is particularly vulnerable. UV absorbed in the lens proteins contributes to the formation of cataract, which decreases the ability of the lens to transmit light, resulting in partial or complete blindness. Exposed skin is subject to short-term effects such as sunburn and longer-term effects such as skin cancer and premature aging. The more we are exposed to UV, the more we risk."

Orenstein Radiology Today Vol. 10 No. 17 P. 14For the past 40 years, physicians have used ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) imaging to diagnose potentially life-threatening pulmonary embolisms (PEs). A nuclear medicine utilizing a gamma camera, V/Q imaging involves injecting both a radioactive tracer and having the patient inhale radioactive gas. If the lungs are working properly, the air flow seen on the ventilation scan will match the blood flow seen on the perfusion scan. A mismatch between the ventilation and perfusion scans (V better than Q) could indicate a blockage or PE. Although V/Q scanning uses radioactive materials, the amount of patient radiation exposure is low. However, over the past 10 years, CT angiography (CTA) has begun replacing V/Q in most medical centers and community hospitals. In many physicians’ minds, CTA is becoming the new gold standard for imaging PE."

Print Practice Essentials Since their introduction in the 1950s, organic radiographic iodinated contrast media (ICM) have been among the most commonly prescribed drugs in the history of modern medicine. The phenomenon of present-day radiologic imaging would be lacking without these agents. ICM generally have a good safety record. Adverse effects from the intravascular administration of ICM are generally mild and self-limited; reactions that occur from the extravascular use of ICM are rare. [ 1] Nonetheless, severe or life-threatening reactions can occur with either route of administration. [ 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13]All currently used ICM are chemical modifications of a 2,4,6-tri-iodinated benzene ring. [ 1] They are classified on the basis of their physical and chemical characteristics, including their chemical structure, osmolality, iodine content, and ionization in solution. In clinical practice, categorization based on osmolality is widely used. Osmotic effects of contrast media that are specific for the kidney include transient decreases in blood flow, filtration fraction, and glomerular filtration rate. Secondary effects include osmotically induced diuresis with a dehydrating effect. ["

Older adults are more likely to have orthostatic, carotid sinus hypersensitivity, or cardiac syncope, whereas younger adults are more likely to have vasovagal syncope. Common nonsyncopal syndromes with similar presentations include seizures, metabolic and psychogenic disorders, and acute intoxication.

We were unable to find existing practice guidelines that address this problem in a comprehensive manner. This article provides clinically oriented recommendations for the management of leg edema in adults. We searched on-line resources, textbooks, and MEDLINE (using the Me SH term, “edema”) to find clinically relevant articles on leg edema. We then expanded the search by reviewing articles cited in the initial sources. Our goal was to write a brief, focused review that would answer questions about the management of leg edema. We organized the information to make it rapidly accessible to busy clinicians. The most common cause of leg edema in older adults is venous insufficiency. The most common cause in women between menarche and menopause is idiopathic edema, formerly known as “cyclic” edema. A common but under-recognized cause of edema is pulmonary hypertension, which is often associated with sleep apnea."

Materials and Methods In prospectively recruited patients with recent minor ischemic stroke, we investigated the influence of age, sex, hypertension,diabetes, and smoking on the severity of perivascular spaces in the basal ganglia seen on T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging. We assessed plasma markers of endothelial function (von Willebrand factor, intracellular adhesion molecule-1), inflammation (interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, C-reactive protein), and thrombosis (fibrinogen, prothrombinfragments 1 + 2, thrombin–antithrombin complex, tissue plasminogen activator, D-dimer). We used a validated semi-automated method to measure basal ganglia perivascular spaces count and volume. We tested uni- and multivariable associations between blood markers and basal ganglia perivascular spaces count and volume. Findings In 100 patients (median age: 67 years, range: 37-92), on adjusted analysis, basal ganglia perivascular spaces count was associated with age (r = .117, P = .003) and hypertension (r = 2.225, P = .013). On multivariable linear regression, adjusted for age, sex, hypertension, smoking and diabetes, reduced von Willebrand factor was associated with increased basal ganglia perivascular spaces count (r = −.025, P = .032). Conclusion The association of increased basal ganglia perivascular spaces count with reduced von Willebrand factor is novel. As von Willebrand factor may promote cerebral endothelial integrity, insufficient von Willebrand factor is consistent with dysfunctional cerebral endothelium and increased basal ganglia perivascular spaces in cerebral small vessel disease. Quantitative perivascular spaces measurement may increase sensitivity to detect cerebral endothelial dysfunction."

People whose D-dimer levels are within the normal range will not likely face life-threatening situations that will result from abnormal D-dimer levels. Having normal D-dimer values are indicative that the body’s healing system by means of blood clotting is doing well. The only way to determine whether an individual hasnormal levels of D-dimer in the blood stream is through the D-dimer test. The examination is often required by physicians to assess the chances of active formation of blood clots of an individual.

"text": "2002D-dimer: Establishing a laboratory assay for ruling out venous thrombosis By: MLO Staff November 1, 2002 01526Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a major health concern in the Western world, occurring in a wide variety of diseases and causing significant mortality and morbidity. The most common manifestations of VTE are deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). 1 DVT is a venous thrombotic clot in the lower extremities, the most serious being in the proximal veins and the less serious in calf veins. When a portion of the thrombus breaks loose and lodges in the pulmonary arteries, this results in a pulmonary embolism (PE), the most common fatal aspect of VTE. Most VTE is treatable, reducing morbidity and mortality. The diagnosis of VTE is first a subjective or a clinical impression; this is followed by more objective, albeit expensive, tests. 1 However, if not diagnosed, many VTEs become fatal. Currently, objective evaluation (imaging or radiography) for DVT or PE is pursued only after the healthcare provider has a clinical suspicion of VTE. The wide gap between the subjective, clinical impression and the objective, expensive imaging leads to an expensive evaluation of many patients without VTE. If an inexpensive test were utilized to eliminate some of the patients without VTE, significant savings in healthcare costs would result."

The most common cause of leg oedema in patients over 50 years of age is insufficiency of the leg veins. Oedema caused by insufficiency of the deep leg veins can be treated with compression therapy (graduated compression stockings). In women under the age of 50 years, the most likely cause is idiopathic oedema and non-drug therapy is the first-line treatment approach. Oedema caused by medication (particularly calcium-channel blockers) must be recognised. Excessive use of diuretics must be avoided when oedema results from immobilisation, venous stasis or an obstruction to the lymph flow. In many cases, oedema is caused by a multitude of factors. Causes Acute unilateral oedema: deep vein thrombosis 1, ruptured Baker’s cyst 2, compartment syndrome 3Chronic unilateral oedema: venous insufficiency 4, lymphoedema, pelvic tumour, reflex sympathetic dystrophy 5. Acute bilateral oedema: deep vein thrombosis, sudden deterioration of heart failure 6 or renal disease. Chronic bilateral oedema: venous insufficiency, heart failure, drugs, idiopathic oedema, lymphoedema, premenstrual oedema 6, pregnancy, pre-eclampsia, pulmonary hypertension 7, obesity, kidney disease (nephrotic syndrome 8, glomerulonephritis 9 ), liver disease, pelvic tumour, continuous sitting with the legs bent (elderly patients who sit for prolonged periods and paralysed patients), anaemia, hypoalbuminaemia, severe hypothyroidism 10."

"text": "The legal age to contract refers to the chronological age a person must be to enter into a binding agreement. In most parts of the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom, a person is a legal adult when he or she is 18 years of age. In some parts of the United States, a person must be 19 years old before he or she is a legal adult. In Scotland, a person can sign some types of contracts when he or she is 16 years old, but must be at least 18 to sign a contract to make a major purchase, such as buying a house or other property. To form a legally-binding contract, each party who is signing it must be able to understand what is being signed. Not only does each party need to understand the terms of the contract, but everyone must also specifically consent to its terms. Children are not considered capable of fully understanding the terms of a contract and, in most areas, are not held legally responsible if they enter into one. The law is written in this way to protect children from people who may attempt to take advantage of them. A young person may think that he or she has the capacity to understand the terms of the contract presented, but he or she must also be mature enough to appreciate the consequences of what is being signed. The principle was written for this purpose."

"text": "\"Home » Home Legal Age to Get a Loanby Gregory Hamel When you want to make a major purchase - whether it's a car, a home or an education - you’ll probably have to get a loan to help pay for it. That can be especially difficult for younger consumers because lenders generally won't make loans to people under age 18. Lending and Age Everyone is considered a minor in the eyes of the law until they reach age 18. As a minor, you generally can't be held responsible for a contract you sign. That means lenders won't make loans to people under 18 because minors have no legal obligation to repay them. Student Loans to Minors Although minors generally can't sign binding contracts, federal student loans are an exception. A change to the Higher Education Act in 1992 permitted students under age 18 to sign legally binding contracts for their own federal loans, helping minors finance an education without the help of an adult. Video of the Day Credit History Even if you are 18 or older, there's no guarantee a lender will give you a loan. They'll look at your credit history first and chances are you won't get a loan without a solid credit background unless you can make a large down payment - cash you put toward a purchase to reduce the amount you need to borrow. Co-Signers Required In addition, lenders often require that younger borrowers with little or no credit history find a co-signer before approving loans."

A legislative charter by which a government or group derives its authority to act. The concept of a constitution dates to the city-states of ancient Greece. The philosopher Aristotle (384–322 b.c. ), in his work Politics, analyzed over 150 Greek constitutions. He described a constitution as creating the frame upon which the government and laws of a society are built: A constitution may be defined as an organization of offices in a state, by which themethod of their distribution is fixed, the sovereign authority is determined, and thenature of the end to be pursued by the association and all its members is prescribed. Laws, as distinct from the frame of the constitution, are the rules by which themagistrates should exercise their powers, and should watch and check transgressors. In modern Europe, written constitutions came into greater use during the eighteenth and nineteenthcenturies. Constitutions such as that of the United States, created in 1787, were influenced by theancient Greek models."

Codification of an area of law generally constitutes the whole source that is relied upon for a legal question in that area.

"text": "Entering into a contract with a minor If you are considering entering into a contract with a child, you need to consider important legal issues before going ahead, because you may not be able to enforce the contract if things go wrong. What is a minor? A minor is someone under the age of 18 years (Births and Deaths Registration Amendment Act (No 1) 2002) – 18 is the age at which a person reaches their majority. Contracting with a minor When might I need to contract with a minor? Sometimes, a minor needs to enter into a contract with someone, for instance, a 10-year-old may go to the fish and chip shop to buy dinner, or pay to go to the swimming pool or cinema. In other cases, a minor may be expected to sign a contract, for example, when buying something they may be required to sign terms and conditions of sale; or in the sporting context, an employment contract may be entered into by a minor under which they would play for a professional football team. The law does not forbid contracting with minors per se. However, there are restrictions as to the enforceability of contracts with minors; and there are some contracts with minors which are void and have no legal effect. What’s the normal position when entering into a contract? The general rule is that for a legally binding contract to exist, there must have been an offer, an acceptance of that offer, consideration (a price paid), and an intention to form a legally binding contract."

By Peter J. Lamont David Schwen There was a time when a contract was not legally binding unless all of the parties involved sat down, reviewed the agreement, then signed and dated it in front of witnesses. Today, such formal contract signings have become passé. Everyone—from major corporations to the solo lighting practitioner—now uses email as their primary means of communication. Consequently, people receive and review documents on their smartphones, tablets, and other mobile devices. Some even sign documents with a digital signature. While most businesses enjoy the ease of digital communication and negotiation, many wonder if email communications or digital signatures are legally binding. What are the legal ramifications of using email and digital signatures to conduct business and to negotiate and sign business documents? To gain a full understanding of the legality of electronic communications, we have to discuss two federal laws. The first is the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act of 1999 (UETA)."

A minor in a contract law case is anyone under the age of eighteen. There are several circumstances under which a person below the age of eighteen may have the full legal capacity to enter into a contract. If a person is married while under eighteen years of age, they usually are held to the full capability to enter into contracts, although this is determined on a State by State basis. Emancipation may also cause an individual to cease to be considered a minor. Emancipation is a legal process which takes place when an individual who has not yet reached the normal age of majority can be declared to no longer be a minor if they are paying their own bills, supplying their own place of residence, and are no longer reliant upon their parent or legal guardian in any way. A minor who has been emancipated has all the contractual rights and obligations of a person who has reached the age of majority. Unless the minor has been emancipated, they have distinct contractual rights. The first right granted to minors in contract law cases is the right to disaffirm. Disaffirming occurs when the minor states, either in a verbal declaration or by their actions, that they no longer intend to be bound by the terms of the contract to which they are a party."

Throughout history, societies practiced various forms of censorship in the belief that the community, as represented by the government, was responsible for molding the individual.

"text": "Is a contract signed by a minor valid?by Free Advice staff In all states, the age requirement to sign a contract is 18 years of age. A child under the age of 18 is considered a minor and is unable to sign a contract unless it is for essential items. Essential items include medicines, food, and medical services. Otherwise, the minor child must have a parent or guardian consent to the contract in order for it to be legally binding. If your minor child has signed a contract for a non-essential item without your approval, the contract is not valid. In other words, you can contact the business and have the contract destroyed. Valid contracts are only so if the parent or guardian consented to the contract. Any items that the child purchased on contract would need to be returned. Fortunately, the retailers must return the items regardless of their return policy, since they violated the state’s law in allowing the minor to sign the contract in the first place. If your child is emancipated, meaning the court awarded them adult status while they were still underage, then their contracts are considered valid."

Contract ratification is necessary when a contract is voidable but the parties determine that they would prefer to execute and perform the contract anyway. For example, if a 16-year-old signed a contract to purchase a car, that contract would be voidable, as contacts can only be signed by individuals 18 years or older. On reaching the age of majority, the person who signed when underage can honor the purchase contract through ratification. As a small-business owner, you may be required at times to ratify contracts signed by individuals who were not authorized to provide a signature. Contract Formation The essential elements of a contract include an offer, acceptance, consideration, and a \"\"meeting of the minds,\"\" meaning the parties understood and agreed to the basic terms of the contract. Consideration means that the parties must exchange something of value when creating a contract. If there is a flaw in the creation or the terms of the contract, the contract may be considered void or voidable. Contract Flaws Void contracts cannot be ratified because they are not capable of being legally executed.

"text": "5 Considerations for Relationships with a Big Age Difference September 13, 2013 • Contributed by Zawn Villines, Good Therapy.org Correspondent5 0 0 0 0 >A middle-aged man dating a much younger woman has long been thought of in American culture as a classic sign of midlife crisis. In some circles, dating a younger woman is a status symbol. Men aren’t the only ones who date younger people, though, and the archetype of the “cougar”—an older woman dating a younger man—is rapidly becoming a part of the public consciousness. Same-sex couples sometimes feature a significant age gap as well. Although comedians joke about these relationships, a significant age difference doesn’t make a relationship any less real or meaningful, though it may create some challenges that don’t exist when romantic partners are close in age. Navigating the social ramifications of your relationship while struggling with generation gaps can be tough, but a significant age difference can give you the chance to consider new perspectives and appreciate the offerings of a different generation. Know When the Difference Is Too Large Love can be fickle, and we don’t always fall for the right people. Sometimes a significant age gap makes a relationship impossible. No matter how real your feelings are, getting involved with someone under the age of 18 can lead to serious legal trouble. Find a Therapist Advanced Search Even if you’re legally in the clear, a large age difference can undermine the long-term viability of your relationship."

"text": "\"4.0 out of 5 stars A thoughtful, reflective resource for expressing your legacy By Richard O Weijo on September 22, 2014Format: Paperback Verified Purchase This book is for those individuals who are considering writing a legacy letter but ask themselves \"\"What should I write?\"\" Your Legacy Matters is reflective and spiritual. This book is not to be rushed through. I found it best to read each chapter and reflected upon it before moving forward. Each chapter speaks to different aspects of legacy - a few examples include blessings, linking past and future generations, personal relationships, regrets, and aging. Instead of writing just one (or a few) legacy letters, the author encourages writing a variety of letters to different people on different topics. The author encourages writing draft letters, lettings them sit for a few days or a week, and then revising and editing them. Some legacy letters can be given to recipients immediately, some are given at upcoming special events, some are left in a legacy file or safe deposit box with directions to be given at death, and finally, some are used to understand oneself and are eventually destroyed. A thoughtful, reflective resource for expressing your legacy. Comment 2 people found this helpful."

Wood Christos Pantelis Author Notes Schizophrenia Bulletin, Volume 37, Issue 3, 1 May 2011, Pages 504–513, https://doi.org/10.1093/schbul/sbr030Published: 01 May 2011PDF Cite Permissions Share Abstract Many of the major neuropsychiatric illnesses, including schizophrenia, have a typical age of onset in late adolescence. Late adolescence may reflect a critical period in brain development making it particularly vulnerable for the onset of psychopathology. Neuroimaging studies that focus on this age range may provide unique insights into the onset and course of psychosis. In this review, we examine the evidence from 2 unique longitudinal cohorts that span the ages from early childhood through young adulthood; a study of childhood-onset schizophrenia where patients and siblings are followed from ages 6 through to their early twenties, and an ultra-high risk study where subjects (mean age of 19 years) are studied before and after the onset of psychosis. From the available evidence, we make an argument that subtle, regionally specific, and genetically influenced alterations during developmental age windows influence the course of psychosis and the resultant brain phenotype. The importance of examining trajectories of development and the need for future combined approaches, using multimodal imaging together with molecular studies is discussed.schizophrenia, adolescent, brain development, high risk, neural circuitry, prefrontal cortex Topic:neuroimaging phenotype adolescent adult age of onset child psychotic disorders schizophrenia relationship - siblingbrain diagnostic imaging brain development symptom onset Issue Section: Theme Introduction Introduction Schizophrenia is a complex and debilitating brain disorder that typically emerges in late adolescence and early adulthood and is characterized by hallucinations and delusions (commonly known as positive symptoms), social withdrawal, alogia, and flat affect (negative symptoms), and cognitive disabilities. Schizophrenia afflicts approximately 1% of the population worldwide incurring substantial individual, family, and societal costs 1 along with shortened life span. 2As is the case with many major neuropsychiatric illnesses, the typical age of onset for schizophrenia is in late adolescence or early twenties, with a slightly later onset in females. 3 Several lines of evidence have suggested that the pathogenesis of the disorder may be rooted in early development 4 and that brain changes during this period are relevant. 5, 6 According to the neurodevelopmental theory of schizophrenia proposed by Weinberger 7 and by Murray and Lewis, 8 early brain insults affect prenatal brain development and resultant pathophysiological mechanisms, causing dysfunction of the mature brain predisposing to schizophrenia."

"text": "Death I. Death and Bereavement John W. Riley, Jr. BIBLIOGRAPHYII. The Social Organization of Death Robert W. Habenstein BIBLIOGRAPHYI DEATH AND BEREAVEMENTDeath is a personal event that man cannot describe for himself. As far back as we can tell, man has been both intrigued by death and fearful of it; he has been motivated to seek answers to the mystery and to seek solutions to his anxiety. Every known culture has provided some answer to the meaning of death; for death, like birth or marriage, is universally regarded as a socially significant event, set off by ritual and supported by institutions. It is the final rite de passage. The social and psychological aspects of death have been studied by anthropologists, sociologists, psychologists, and psychiatrists; and the main outlines of their understandings can be summarized on three levels—cultural, social, and individual. The meanings which have been attached to death in most cultures include beliefs in some kind of existence after death; most peoples—save the nonliterate—have entertained theories of personal salvation; and religion, philosophy, and political ideology have provided some answers to man’s quest for the meaning of death. The relationship between death and the social structure has received little systematic attention from social scientists, although there is much research on the social prescriptions for bereavement, especially as these relate to ritualistic mourning and individual grief. Scattered empirical studies suggest that, for the individual in the contemporary Western world, matters of death are less salient than those of living, although there are clear traces of a latent and underlying ambivalence. Although between fifty and sixty million people die each year, growing proportions of people in the world live into the later years."

"text": "Parental Alienation in Older Childrenby Joan Kloth-Zanard Life Coach and Counselor www. Kloth Consulting.com Don’t believe what they say: that Parental Alienation cannot happen to older children, that it’s just an oxymoron. Parental Alienation is the act of one parent deliberately undermining the relationship between the children and the other parent to the point of creating a hostile relationship and thus alienation of the children from the other parent. Another way to look at this is alienation of affection, which is one of the basic human needs discussed at length by Maslow in his Hierarchy of Needs. It is a serious form of psychological abuse, and it is very dangerous because it occurs internally and, thus, is harder to treat. Unlike physical abuse where the scars and wounds are on the outside, Parental Alienation Syndrome (PAS) is so deep inside that unlocking the key to it takes years of treatment and unconditional love. Though PAS is primarily seen in high-conflict divorces, it also occurs in intact families. And though it usually begins in early childhood, this is not always the case, and does not mean that older children and even adults cannot be alienated from their other parent. In fact, PAS is often described as a cult form of control over others. In this respect, we can say that the perpetrator or alienator brainwashes and programs the innocent victims to hate their other parent/family members."

My condolences to all of you. What you’re about to read will definitely not please you, and I would have hated it as much as all of you will if I’d read it while I was still in my LDR. I’m sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but someone’s got to come out and say what all of us have always known but never had the guts to admit to each other and to ourselves. Note that by “long distance relationships,” I refer to the ones where there is no current possibility or any possibility in the near future that the two people involved will be living in the same area. So, based on my own experience, these are 7 reasons why long distance relationships don’t work out:1. It’s not a real relationship Hate me if you must, but LDRs are not real relationships. What they are are fabrications of relationships, because what you two have exists only in the online world, the virtual world. You fool yourselves into thinking that you’re involved in something genuine, something hopeful, something whose future lies in the physical world, the real world. But what you’re actually in is a lie made to look like a relationship."

We get a good laugh out of that! The reality is that I am only five years (almost to the day) older than he is. We then explain to the kids that age gaps seem bigger when you are younger, but that as you get older, that gap gets smaller and becomes relatively inconsequential. I believe that."

"text": "What is the legal age of consent for sexual intercourse in South Australia? Wednesday June 14, 2017The legal age of consent for sexual intercourse depends on the law that applies in the particular country or state where the sexual act takes place. In today’s article, we’re talking about unlawful sexual intercourse in South Australia. In South Australia this is determined under the Criminal Law Consolidation Act (SA) 1935, which refers to sexual intercourse with a child as unlawful sexual intercourse. A person is guilty of unlawful sexual intercourse if they have sexual intercourse with a person who is under 17 years of age. The maximum penalty for this offence is 10 years imprisonment. Importantly, if the sexual intercourse is with a person who is under 14 years of age then the maximum penalty increases to life imprisonment. So basically, in most cases in South Australia the age of consent is 17 years. Is the age of sexual consent always 17? No."

Mens XP Team Mens XP Staff Writer Does age difference in a relationship, especially marriage, really matter? Well, the response to this question would be pretty mixed. Ask anyone,and they are likely to follow the traditional path, which is, that the guy must be about 3 or 4 years older. However, there are cases that show that this adage may not always prove true. The Older Man and Younger Woman – IAs is traditional, especially in the Indian subcontinent, the perfect match is when you find a wife who is about 3 or 4 years younger than you. While this phenomenon is accepted widely, it is also proven to be successful, as the couple is known to grow up together, grow old together, face similar situations and challenges at similar points of time in their life together, make for a compatible husband-wife duo and follow, in a way, the laws of nature. The Older Man and Younger Woman – IIA woman is often attracted to a man much older to her in years and often sees in him the qualities of a father-figure. However unrealistic this may appear, such marriages are often seen to work. Take the case of Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart, who have an age difference of more than 20 years."

"text": "When It Comes To Dating, Do Age Differences Matter? A recent study lends insight into age differences in romantic relationships Posted Aug 19, 2013SHARETWEETEMAILMOREIt is a commonly accepted idea that men prefer the company of younger women, while women prefer men who are older. This is also in keeping with Parental Investment Theory, which maintains that men are attracted to women who advertise signs of fertility — that is, youth. Conversely, women are drawn to older men since they typically have greater resources. Indeed, this phenomenon of men preferring younger mates and vice versa is technically known as the age differential effect, and it has been well-documented. In a classic study of human mating from 1989, David Buss surveyed 37 cultures across 6 continents and found that in every culture in question, men preferred to marry younger women (2.66 years younger on average) and women preferred to marry older men (3.42 years older on average). In addition, Buss collected actual age differences at marriage for 27 of the 37 cultures, and across the board men normally married women who were younger than themselves. And in a 1993 study that analyzed over 1,000 personal ads, researchers found that women typically sought older men, and men typically sought younger women. Similarly, in a 1994 study using a nationally representative sample of single Americans younger than 35, the results revealed that women were significantly more willing than men to marry someone older by five years; conversely, men were significantly more willing than women to marry someone who was younger by five years. In another study from 2001, researchers asked Dutch men and women between the ages of 20 and 60 about their age preferences for various types of intimate situations, ranging from sexual fantasies to marriage."

De facto partner maintenance is financial support paid by a party to a de facto relationship that has broken down to their former de facto partner in circumstances where they are unable to adequately support themselves. Under the Family Law Act 1975, a person has a responsibility to financially assist their spouse or former de facto partner, if that person cannot meet their own reasonable expenses from their personal income or assets. Where the need exists, both parties have an equal duty to support and maintain each other as far as they can. This obligation can continue even after separation and divorce. The extent of the support depends on what the other party can afford to pay. What does a court consider when making a decision? The court considers the needs of an applicant and the respondent's capacity to pay. The court considers the following about both of you:your age and healthyour income, property, and financial resourcesyour ability to workwhat is a suitable standard of living, andif the marriage has affected your ability to earn an income. The court also takes into account with whom the children (under 18 years of age or adult children who are disabled) live."

Answer by Daprophet1985 Confidence votes 75Legal Age There are very few states in the U. S. with legal minimum ages for children home alone, but many state agencies have published guidelines. Georgia, Illiniois, Maryland and Oregon are a few of the states with specific ages specified in their laws. 12 years of age appears to be the most common recommendation. Below in Related Links is an article entitled Home Alone Children Legal Age Limits which provides one guideline from a California agency representative who suggests that 8 year olds and over can be left at home for up to several hours (usually after school before a parent gets home from work). This site also provides a state by state comparison with references. The Tennessee citation referenced in this link (Tennessee Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges) states: \"\"There is no legal age for children to stay at home alone. Parents are advised to use their best judgment, keeping the child's maturity level and safety issues in mind. \"\" 52 people found this useful Was this answer useful?

Flag At what age can a child be home alone in Kentucky? Answer by Bethbaci Confidence votes 95Don't leave young kids alone in Kentucky. A child should not be left home alone in Kentucky until they are 11 years of age. There is no law per se, but I work in the child welfare arena and if your child is younger than this and being left alone child protective services will take a report and investigate a child left alone younger than 11. There still may be a report if a child is older than 11 and they are left for long periods of time. It's also not a good idea to let children younger than 13 babysit for younger children. I work for Child Protective Services in Louisville KY, and we investigate cases of children under the age of eight when they are left alone. Children above that age can be left alone for a couple of hours and we look at the maturity level of the children up to 12 years of age. There is no law in KY that addresses this issue.15 people found this useful Was this answer useful?"

"text": "\"Answers.com ® Wiki Answers ® Categories Law & Legal Issues Children and the Law Custody What is the legal age to leave a child at home alone in the state of Louisiana? Flag What is the legal age to leave a child at home alone in the state of Louisiana? Answer by Rkelley Confidence votes 3.8KLouisiana as almost every other US state, does not have a specific age law for such circumstances. At one time there was a LA code referring to the age of 9-years being the middle ground. The basic premise is that the parents will use good judgment as to the ability of the child to be left unsupervised. The law presumes that if there is a problem with a minor being left home alone such as the child being injured, then \"\"just cause\"\" for neglect or endangerment charges to be filed must be supportable. For example a very young child (IMO,under 12) or any child left in an unsafe environment, no food, water, heat, access to firearms, alcohol, an so forth. However, a very upsetting statistic for Louisiana is it ranks second in child deaths and serious injuries for children under the age of 6-years not being supervised properly. This includes children in home child care, home parental/older sibling care and those (believe it or not) left totally alone or in charge of younger siblings. Legal Age There are very few states in the U. S. with legal minimum ages for children home alone, but many state agencies have published guidelines."

"text": "Leaving Kids Home Alone – At What Ages Are They Ready? By Susan Borowski Posted in: Kids Share 36 Tweet Pin 1 Comments 4It’s tempting to try to save money by eliminating daycare or a babysitter to care for your children in your absence. Although being home alone can help kids learn to be independent, it is imperative for them to be mature enough to handle the responsibility. Kids mature at different rates, so going by age alone is not necessarily the answer. Open and honest communication between you and your children can help you make a determination. However, there are additional guidelines that you must consider as well. How to Determine Readiness Readiness to be home alone depends on both age and maturity, and both must be taken into account for your child’s venture into this new area of responsibility to be successful.1. Take Age Into Account A recent U. S. Census showed that 7 million of the nation’s 38 million children between the ages of 5 and 14 are left home alone on a regular basis, while the average time spent alone is six hours per week. This might be fine for older kids, but it may not be safe for younger children. Only a handful of states legislate at which age a child can legally be left home alone: Both Maryland and North Carolina prohibit children under the age of 8 from being left alone."

"text": "\"Health Diagnostics & Imaging Q: What Does \"\"possible Inferior Infarct, Age Undetermined\"\" Mean on an EKG? A: Quick Answer An EKG/ECG that finds dead tissue of undetermined age in the inferior heart wall is called an \"\"inferior infarct, age undetermined.\"\" An infarct is heart tissue that dies from a heart attack, which electrocardiograms, or EKG/ECG, detect because the dead muscle no longer contracts, according to Web MD and the American Heart Association. Continue Reading Keep Learning What Is the Significance of \"\"septal Infarct, Age Undetermined\"\" in an ECG? What Causes Distinct Black Shadows on the Lungs in X-Rays? What Are the Potential Complications of a Colonoscopy? Full Answer The muscles in the heart need oxygen to survive, just like any other muscle, according to the American Heart Association. When the heart muscle is starved of oxygen for too long, the tissue dies. This process usually begins with the build up of fats and cholesterol (plaque), in the coronary arteries that deliver blood to the heart muscle. Eventually, part of this plaque accumulation breaks off and a blood clot forms around it."

In a double-blind, parallel group study of patients undergoing elective cancer surgery of the gastrointestinal, urological, or gynecological tract, a total of 1116 patients were enrolled in the study, and 1115 patients were treated. Patients ranged in age from 32 to 97 years (mean age 67 years) with 52.7% men and 47.3% women. Patients were 98% Caucasian, 1.1% Black, 0.4% Asian and 0.4% others. Lovenox 40 mg subcutaneously, administered once a day, beginning 2 hours prior to surgery and continuing for a maximum of 12 days after surgery, was comparable to heparin 5000 U every 8 hours subcutaneously in reducing the risk of DVT. The efficacy data are provided below (see Table 14 ).

Based on an index patient, we hypothesized that age and pre-existent WMLs rather than infarct volume and topography determine outcome. Patients and Methods— Thirty-four consecutive patients with magnetic resonance diffusion-weighted imaging–proven isolated acute cerebellar infarction were prospectively entered on our stroke data registry. Patients with pre-existent neurological deficits, hemorrhagic, or malignant cerebellar infarction were excluded. Patients were stratified using Rankin and Barthel disability scales into groups: I complete recovery, II moderate, and III significant disability 14 days after stroke onset. Results— Initial neurological and functional scores were similar among all the groups with vertigo, nausea, unsteadiness, and limb ataxia being the most common. Infarct volume, vascular territories, and comorbidity did not predict clinical outcome. In contrast, presence and severity of supratentorial WMLs and age significantly determined outcome by functional tests."

Knut Eichhorn-Mulligan, MD, Ph D and Ivana K. Kim, MD, Boston Choroidal nevi, especially small ones, are common. Estimates of their prevalence range from 5 to 10 percent of the general population. The Blue Mountains Eye Study recorded choroidal nevi in 6.5 percent of a prospectively studied population of mostly middle-aged white Australians. 1 Choroidal melanomas, on the other hand, are fortunately a rare entity, with an estimated incidence of approximately six per million. Nevertheless, choroidal melanoma is the most common primary intraocular malignancy in adults, and prompt and accurate diagnosis is important. Characteristics of Nevi Histologically, nevi are benign neoplasms of the melanocytes that reside in the outer layers of the choroid. They typically appear as a flat, slate-grey lesion beneath the retina. However, nevi may be completely nonpigmented in up to 10 percent of cases."

This is part of the series on seed-saving, but its about seed selection on the macro scale: what seeds to you choose to grow in the first place? One of the things I need to know about a variety before I plant it is whether it is determinate or indeterminate. What do determinate and indeterminate mean? : Simply, whether the variety of vegetable will grow to a given size, produce all of its crop within a short period of time, then die down (determinate), or whether it will begin to produce slowly, continuing to grow as a plant and to provide the edible part of the plant over a prolongued (indeterminate) period of time. Usually, the vegetables that are described as determinate or indeterminate are the ones where the fruit is the edible part of the plant; tomatoes, peppers, peas and beans and perhaps cucumbers or melons being the vegetables where you are most likely to see the term used. However, it is also applicable to potatoes. They are generally described as short season, medium season, or long season rather than determinate or indeterminate. However, short season potatoes set a certain quantity of potatoes, then they die down. Long season potatoes will, if you continue to hill them up at a judicious rate, continue to form tubers until cut short by cold weather."

Mazzariol a Show morehttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.clinimag.2016.02.015 Get rights and content Abstract Focal atraumatic splenic lesions often pose a diagnostic challenge on cross-sectional imaging. They can be categorized based on etiology, as nonneoplastic, benign neoplastic, and malignant neoplastic (discussed in Part III) lesions, or on prevalence, as common, uncommon, and rare lesions. Familiarity with pertinent clinical parameters, etiology, pathology, prevalence, and ancillary features such as splenomegaly, concomitant hepatic involvement, and extrasplenic findings, in addition to knowledge of imaging spectra of the lesions, can improve diagnostic confidence. Consideration of these factors together can arm the radiologist with the necessary tools to render a more confident diagnosis and thus better aid management. Keywords CT scan MRI malignant splenic lesions Management algorithm1. Introduction Focal atraumatic splenic lesions can cause an imaging dilemma for the radiologist because they often lack a classic appearance. Therefore, assessment of their imaging features alone may be insufficient for diagnosis. Diagnostic accuracy is dramatically improved when the radiologist adds knowledge of relevant clinical factors, etiology, pathology, lesion prevalence, and ancillary imaging findings. Splenic lesions can be divided by etiology into the three categories: nonneoplastic, benign neoplastic, and malignant lesions ( Table 1 ), which are reviewed separately in this three-part series. Nonneoplastic lesions are discussed in Part I. Benign neoplastic and nonneoplastic mass-like lesions are discussed in Part II."

It also plays a key role in the development of atherosclerotic lesions. In 1959, Prinzmetal et al described a syndrome of nonexertional chest pain with ST-segment elevation on electrocardiography (ECG). [ 1] Unlike patients with typical angina, these patients characteristically had normal exercise tolerance, and their pain patterns tended to be cyclical, with most episodes occurring in the early morning hours without regard to cardiac workload. This syndrome became known as Prinzmetal or variant angina, and was believed to be due to vasospasm in coronary arteries without obstructive lesions. Subsequently, Maseri et al described the clinical, ECG, and angiographic features of 138 patients with variant angina and concluded that the syndrome was considerably more polymorphic than was initially inferred by Prinzmetal. [ 2]For patient education resources, see the Heart Health Center and Chest Pain. References Etiopathophysiology The pathophysiologic mechanisms leading to coronary artery vasospasm are not yet completely understood. Coronary arterial tone varies normally via physiologic mechanisms, but the degree of vasoconstriction can range along a spectrum extending from undetectable constriction to complete arterial occlusion. In some patients with partial vasoconstriction, symptoms can arise with activities that exceed a threshold of myocardial demand. ["

Ko, MDa,b KEYWORDS Solitary pulmonary nodule Indeterminate Computed tomography Nodule characterization Lung cancer Management Guidelines KEY POINTS Pulmonary nodules are routinely detected on computed tomography of the chest. Once a pulmonary nodule is identified, the key question for management of pulmonary nodules is their characterization. Management decisions should not be based on nodule size alone. Central, laminar, or dense diffuse patterns of calcification are indicators of benignancy. Increasing patient age generally correlates with increasing likelihood of malignancy. INTRODUCTION Although several clinical and radiologic features may suggest the diagnosis, many solitary pulmonary nodules remain indeterminate after conventional evaluation. If there are no definite benign morphologic findings, the solitary pulmonary nodule is classified as an indeterminate, possibly malignant lesion. The solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN) remains a frequently encountered finding on multidetector computed tomography (MDCT).1 Since the first instillation of a clinical CT scanner, repeated advances in CT technology have resulted in the rapid growth in the use of MDCT2 and, thus, significant increase in the detection of lung nodules.3 Lung nodules may be caused by a variety of disorders, including neoplasm, infection, inflammation, and vascular and congenital abnormalities. Although most incidentally discovered pulmonarynodules are benign, 1 in 13 men and 1 in 16 women will be diagnosed with lung cancer, with an estimated 20% to 30% of these patients presenting with an SPN.4 The occurrence of malignancy for an SPN, such as in mass screening studies with both plain radiography and CT, low.5,6 This low and reflects the higher sensitivity of CT for small lung nodules that have a lesser likelihood of malignancy.7 The high mortality associated with lung cancer emphasizes the need for detection and characterization of SPNs so that benign lesions can be distinguished from their malignant counterparts. Options for nodule characterization include noninvasive and minimally-invasive techniques."

List the diagnostic criteria for acute and chronic pulmonary embolism at CT pulmonary angiography.•. Describe the causes of misdiagnosis of pulmonary embolism at CT pulmonary angiography.•. Discuss the causes of indeterminate CT pulmonary angiography. Introduction Section: Choose prevnext Pulmonary embolism is the third most common acute cardiovascular disease after myocardial infarction and stroke and results in thousands of deaths each year because it often goes undetected ( 1, 2 ). Diagnostic tests for thromboembolic disease include (a) the D-dimer assay, which has a high sensitivity but poor specificity in this setting ( 3 ), (b) ventilation-perfusion scintigraphy, which has a high sensitivity but very poor specificity ( 4 ), and (c) lower limb ultrasonography, which has a high specificity but low sensitivity ( 5 ). Computed tomographic (CT) pulmonary angiography has been evaluated with meta-analysis and has demonstrated sensitivities of 53%–100% and specificities of 83%–100% ( 6 ), wide ranges that are explained in part by technologic improvements over time. Pulmonary angiography, the diagnostic standard of reference for confirming or refuting a diagnosis of pulmonary embolism, remains underused ( 7, 8 ). Although pulmonary angiography has lower mortality and morbidity rates (<1% and 5%, respectively) than anticoagulation therapy (1%–2% and 5%–25%), it has not gained widespread acceptance and is not universally available ( 9 – 11 ). In a study evaluating trends in the use of inpatient thoracic radiology at an academic medical center over a 10-year period, Wittram et al ( 12) showed that the use of CT in patients with suspected thromboembolic disease has increased significantly ( Figs 1 – 3) ( 12 ). In this article, we describe the technique of CT pulmonary angiography, diagnostic criteria for acute and chronic pulmonary embolism, and causes of misdiagnosis of pulmonary embolism. The latter group includes patient-related factors (respiratory motion artifact, image noise, pulmonary artery catheter, flow-related artifact), technical factors (window settings, streak artifact, lung algorithm artifact, partial volume artifact, stair step artifact), anatomic factors (partial volume averaging effect in lymph nodes, vascular bifurcation, misidentification of veins), and pathologic factors (mucus plug, perivascular edema, localized increase in vascular resistance, pulmonary artery stump in situ thrombosis, primary pulmonary artery sarcoma, tumor emboli). CT Technique Section: Choose prevnext Lightspeed 16-section CT scanners (GE Medical Systems, Milwaukee, Wis) are used to acquire images of the thorax in a caudocranial direction."

By: William Wong ND, Ph D, Member World Sports Medicine Hall of Fame. With all the ballyhoo in the US congress about anabolic steroid use in sports (to the point where athletic performance in the pro sports will decline to pre 1968 levels - boring), the line between anabolic steroid drugs and natural testosterone has been blurred to the point of not being recognizable. So, let’s point out the facts and put some distance between the growth drugs and testosterone. Let’s also take a serious look at the good that testosterone replacement can do in both men and women to improve their overall health without the danger of creating other problems such as cancer (as the estradiol docs prescribe so freely often does). Androgens, or male hormones have two main functions #1 to be androgenic or to produce libido, sexual ability, grow the penis and testicles, make sperm, increase mental drive and sexual desire. The #2 function is to be anabolic; to build bone, build muscle. Natural Testosterone has both the androgenic and anabolic functions. Anabolic steroids are a synthetic androgen having almost no androgenic ability while only having anabolic ability."

Minimal - not serious. Age-indeterminate - do not know if the accident caused them or you had them before the acccident without even knowing about it, Posterior disc bulges at C5 & C6/7 - cervical (neck) is a narrowing of the spinal cord canal. Neural foraminal narrowing is where the nerves pass through. If you did not know it, but all the nerves throughout your body start at your spine and spread out. With L4/5 (lumbar - lower back) the same age indeterminate applies. Hope this has helped! Maybe you should try google and see what that turns up, a little research might help you understand the spine etc a bit more."

Rachel Green Friends character Portrayed by Jennifer Aniston Duration 1994–2004First appearance \"\" The Pilot \"\"Last appearance \"\" The Last One \"\"Created by David Crane Marta Kauffman Profile Occupation Waitress Assistant Buyer and personal shopper Executive [ show] Family Rachel Karen Green [4] is a fictional character, one of the six main characters who appeared in the American sitcom Friends. Portrayed by actress Jennifer Aniston, the character was created by show creators David Crane and Marta Kauffman, and appeared in each of the show’s 236 episodes during its decade-long run, from its premiere on September 22, 1994 to its finale on May 6, 2004. Introduced in the show's pilot as a naive runaway bride who reunites with her childhood best friend Monica and relocates to New York City, Rachel gradually evolves from a spoiled, inexperienced \"\"daddy's girl\"\" into a successful businesswoman. During the show's second season, the character becomes romantically involved with her friend Ross, with whom she maintains a complicated on-again, off-again relationship throughout the entire series. Together, the characters have a daughter, Emma. The role of Rachel was originally offered to actresses Téa Leoni, the producer's first choice, and Courteney Cox, both of whom declined, Leoni in favor of starring in the sitcom The Naked Truth, and Cox in favor of playing Rachel's best friend Monica in Friends. [ 5] A virtually unknown actress at the time who had previously starred in five short-lived sitcoms, Aniston auditioned for the role of Rachel after turning down an offer as a cast member on the sketch comedy show Saturday Night Live. After acquiring the role and before Friends aired, Aniston was temporarily at risk of being recast because she had also been involved with another sitcom, Muddling Through, at the time, which was ultimately canceled and allowed Aniston to remain on Friends. Critical reception towards Rachel has remained consistently positive throughout Friends ' decade-long run, with The A. V. Club attributing much of the show's early success to the character."

"text": "\"30 Rock Season 3A\"\"The One With The Cast of Night Court\"\"Episode3In my post for 30 Rock last week I criticized the show for gushing over the cult of Oprah instead of giving her an interesting character to play. Tonight's episode was once again chockablock with star-power. In a real coup for the show it totally snagged a guest appearance from a mega-star: the guy who played Mack on Night Court. Oh, and also Jennifer Aniston. Yes, tonight witnessed a once-in-a-lifetime event: a reunion of friends–from Night Court!In tonight's episode 30 Rock was haunted by the ghosts of NBC hits past: Jennifer Aniston from that show with the friends being friendly and half of the cast of Night Court. Encouragingly, the show gave Aniston a firecracker of a character to play: a loopy live wire who functions as a smart, subversive parody of the Manic Pixie Dream Girl. Like a prototypical MPDG, Aniston character is a zany free spirit who shakes up the lives of everyone she meets, oozes sex and spunk and turns the life of a serious, business-minded, mildly depressed square, in this case our old friend Jack Donaghy, upside down with her irrepressible antics. Oh, also Aniston's character is fucking insane. And more than a little bit evil. She's a Chicago chum of Jenna and Liz, though she seems like the sort of friend so crazy and exhausting and poisonously narcissistic that she makes even her ostensible friends wonder why they tolerate her."

"text": "\"Entertainment & Music Music Country What is johnny cash's last song before he died and date and age?4 following 6 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Johnny Cash's song \"\"Hurt\"\" is considered his epitaph song. Johnny died on September 12, 2003 at the age of 71. His album, American VI, is planned for release sometime in 2009 and is his posthumous album which he had helped plan prior to his passing. Edited to add: In 1997, Cash was diagnosed with the neurodegenerative disease Shy-Drager syndrome. The diagnosis was later altered to autonomic neuropathy associated with diabetes. This illness forced Cash to curtail his touring. He was hospitalized in 1998 with severe pneumonia, which damaged his lungs. His final public appearance was on July 5, 2003 at the Carter Family Fold outside Bristol, Virginia. The song \"\"Hurt\"\" was recorded in 2003, followed by \"\"God's Gonna Cut You Down\"\" in 2006 then the song \"\"Help Me\"\" in 2007. Thumbs up to \"\"Country Girl\"\", even though Hurt was the last song released while he was alive, the song Help Me could be considered his last song."

"text": "Waylon Jennings: Righteous Outlaw Until the End (2002)by NCD Staff | June 26, 2014Written by Chris Neal, originally published in the March 19, 2002 issue of Country Weekly magazine. The cold is unbearable in Clear Lake, Iowa. Twenty-one-year-old Waylon Jennings, playing bass on tour for Buddy Holly, has just given up his prized seat on a chartered plane to J. P. “Big Bopper” Richardson. He will travel by bus instead. “I hope your damn bus freezes up again,” teases Buddy. “Well, I hope your old plane crashes,” responds Waylon with a chuckle. When the bus pulls into Moorhead, Minn., Waylon learns that his joke has come horribly true – Buddy’s plane has crashed, killing all aboard. Fate spared Waylon Jennings’ life on Feb. 3, 1959. Waylon had been given a second chance, and he used it to change the world of music forever. And after he had done that, Waylon Jennings died peacefully as he slept on Feb. 13, 2002, at age 64.“Waylon kicked ass right to the end, and ruled the roost right up to the last minute,” says his wife of 32 years, Jessi Colter. “"

With his deep, resonant baritone and spare percussive guitar, he had a basic, distinctive sound. Cash didn't sound like Nashville, nor did he sound like honky tonk or rock & roll. He created his own subgenre, falling halfway between the blunt emotional honesty of folk, the rebelliousness of rock & roll, and the world-weariness of country. Cash's career coincided with the birth of rock & roll, and his rebellious attitude and simple, direct musical attack shared a lot of similarities with rock. However, there was a deep sense of history -- as he would later illustrate with his series of historical albums -- that kept him forever tied with country. And he was one of country music's biggest stars of the '50s and '60s, scoring well over 100 hit singles. Cash, whose birth name was J. R. Cash, was born and raised in Arkansas, moving to Dyess when he was three. By the time he was 12 years old, he had begun writing his own songs.

On 26 July 1972, three grizzled-looking men dressed uneasily in suits gave evidence at a US Senate subcommittee on prison reform. Two of the men were former inmates of some of the toughest prisons in the US - the third was the country and western singer, Johnny Cash. Cash's famous live albums recorded at Folsom Prison and San Quentin are the stuff of music legend - likely to feature on any critic's list of defining albums of the 1960s. But it's much less well-known that these were only two of many prison concerts Cash played over the course of almost 30 years. Fitting the gigs in around his relentless touring schedule, the \"\"Man in Black\"\" performed for inmates all over the US, always unpaid, and in the process, became a passionate and vocal spokesman for prisoners' rights. \"\" He always identified with the underdog,\"\" says Tommy Cash, Johnny's youngest brother. \"\" He identified with the prisoners because many of them had served their sentences and had been rehabilitated in some cases, but were still kept there the rest of their lives. He felt a great empathy with those people. \"\" The roots of Cash's empathy lie as far back as 1953, when as a 21-year-old radio operator in the US Air Force, he saw the film Inside the Walls of Folsom Prison and was inspired to write a song."

SOURCE: LOOK Magazine One of the most famous homes in country music — or any musical genre, given the reach of Johnny Cash’s career — was the home of Cash and his wife, June Carter Cash. The property at 200 Claudill Drive in Hendersonville, TN — which figured in the award-winning Cash bio-pic, “Walk The Line” — was the Cash family’s home for nearly all of their 35-year marriage. It was at this lake house where the Cash family lived in the massive, 13,880-square-foot home that ran along on Old Hickory Lake. Set on a solid rock foundation, the house was sprawling and the property contained an outdoor swimming pool, bell garden, four large, 35-foot round rooms, 7 bedrooms, and 5 full baths. It was more than a house — it was the spiritual home of Cash and the artistic and cultural universe he created. He wrote most of his songs there. And it drew the likes of Bob Dylan, evangelist Billy Graham, Carl Perkins, Brooks & Dunn and other high priests and priestesses of the music industry and entertainment and political worlds. Best of all, it was a place where musicians would convene with the welcoming Carter/Cash clan. Around the corner, through a hallway and down some more stairs is the lakeside room where Johnny hosted his legendary “guitar pulls” in the late ’60s and early ’70s."

The heart and setting for much of this is Johnny and Vivian's stint living in a hillside home above Nye Road in Casitas Springs from 1961 to 1967, a period containing some of the most colorful and worst of the legendary Man in Black's bad-boy behavior — the pills, the booze, the binges, the arrests and an infamous June 1965 forest fire he set above Fillmore.

Although he is primarily remembered as a country music artist, his songs and sound spanned many other genres including rockabilly and rock and roll-especially early in his career-as well as blues, folk, and gospel. This crossover appeal led to Cash being inducted in the Country Music Hall of Fame, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and Gospel Music Hall of Fame."

"text": "Can You Gain Muscle Before Puberty?by ELLE DI JENSEN Sept. 11, 2017Physical appearance is important to adolescents, so it's natural for teens and pre-teens to want to start working out. Skinny beanpoles or pudgy babies who grew into pudgy kids may start having visions of building muscles to re-shape their bodies. Before puberty, however, kids' bodies aren't ready or able to build significant muscle mass, so if they attempt to gain muscle before their bodies are ready, they are likely to be disappointed. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key The Necessary Ingredients It's not just lifting weights and performing other resistance training exercises that develop muscles. Two vital hormones are necessary to gain muscle, and the body doesn't produce enough of them before puberty to build significant muscle mass. Without increased production of growth hormone and testosterone, resistance training won't result in much muscle gain, if any at all, for children. That's why kids under the age of 15 don't typically look like Mr. Universe or a fitness model. When Muscle Gain Begins The fact that puberty -- and therefore increased testosterone and growth hormone production -- doesn't begin at the same age for everyone can cause frustration for a teen who is impatient to start gaining muscle. Some kids hit puberty as early as 9 years old while others don't start until as late as 15. Between those ages, kids can start looking for signs, such as growth spurts and acne."

Perhaps most troubling: Children ages 9 to 18 actually consume more sugar than adults, and even children between the ages of 4 and 8 get about 21 teaspoons of sugar per day. While the recommended intake varies a bit depending on who's setting the guideline, kids are consuming more sugar than is healthy. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Sugar Recommendations for Kids Both the U. S. Department of Agriculture and the World Health Organization recommend everyone consume no more than 10 percent of daily calories from added sugars. For a person who needs 1200 calories -- which includes some 4- to 8-year-olds -- 10 percent of calories translates to 120 calories or no more than 8 teaspoons of added sugar daily. However, using this 10 percent rule may still be too much sugar for kids. In fact, the American Heart Association has set lower guidelines for sugar consumption: Children up to age 8 should take in no more than 3 to 4 teaspoons of added sugar per day. Older kids and teenagers should limit themselves to no more than 5 to 8 teaspoons of added sugar each day. For reference, half of can of soda -- just 6 ounces -- contains about 5 teaspoons of sugar.

So we've taken those questions that we hear the most and answered them in a slightly different format.1. Static stretching prepares you to compete/practice Static stretching actually reduces power output. Athletes should prepare for practice by doing a dynamic warm up that moves from basic, low intensity movements to faster, more explosive movements as the muscles loosen up. You want to simulate movements that athletes will go through in practice or a game. What happens when you try and stretch a cold rubber band? In a way, you can think about your muscles the same way.2. Strength training makes females too bulky This is a popular mindset with many female athletes that we have worked with. Simply look at some elite female athletes like Mia Hamm, Lisa Leslie, etc. These athletes certainly train with weights and no one would accuse them of having manly physiques."

Just like any just about any other issue, there are plenty of opinions on both sides. Some experts say that age 13 is too young to start a weight training regimen while other equally-qualified experts see no harm in it at all. What are the pros and cons of each side and at what age is it safe for a guy to start lifting weights? Lots of experts say that under proper supervision, when a child is old enough to begin participating in organized sports, he or she is old enough to start \"\"strength training\"\" by doing push-ups, sit-ups and similar exercises. For our purposes though, I want to focus on \"\"weight training\"\" using free weights and/or machines, not the regular gym class stuff. Boys generally start taking an interest in improving their bodies about the time they hit puberty (12-13 years old). That shouldn't come as a surprise-that's when they start to develop masculine characteristics, their bodies begin to change and grow and they become interested in girls. Preadolescent boys (before puberty) lack the androgens-the body's natural steroid hormones such as testosterone or androsterone-that trigger and control the development of the masculine characteristics."

"text": "Don’t ditch your child’s booster seat too soon In the last 20 years, America has seen a 71 percent drop in infant fatality rates from vehicle crashes, thanks to the proper use of car seats. For children ages 5 to 12, vehicle crashes remain the number one cause of death in California, according to a California Department of Public Health study. The reason? Many parents stop using booster seats for their children too soon. California law requires children stay in a child or booster seat until they are 6 years old or weigh at least 60 pounds. However, at that size, kids are still too small for an adult safety belt. Booster seats represent the third stage in your child’s car-seat evolution. Kids are ready for a booster when they can no longer be safely restrained by their forward-facing seat’s five-point harness. Check your car-seat manual to determine when that is, because every seat and every child is different. Generally, most kids are not ready for a booster until they’re around 4 years old and weigh 40 pounds, but that’s not always the case, says Myra Weiman, safety service manager of the Foundation for Safety and Education, a nonprofit affiliate of the American Automobile Association (AAA)."

By Exercise.com Staff Share Tweet Pin +10With all the emphasis currently being placed on childhood obesity in America, medical professionals as well as parents, teachers, and coaches are looking for ways to help children stay fit and lose excess weight. One of the suggestions being recommended is a weight training program, which begs the question, how young should you start weight training? Before answering this question it’s important to draw a distinction between weight training and weight lifting. Weight training is a sub-set of strength training designed to create lean and toned muscles. It is not concentrated on muscle size or appearance. By contrast, weight lifting is a specific set of exercises intended to build muscle mass and a sculpted physique. Is there a limit to how young you should start weight training? According to the Mayo Clinic, weight training is a practice that can be started as soon as a child has developed the proper coordination to carry out minimal exercises fluidly. Medical experts mostly agree that beginning weight training exercises at an early age not only makes for good physical fitness but also develops habits in children that will help them maintain a healthy lifestyle into their adult years."

In actuality, children who lift weights experience many of the same benefits as adults who lift weights. They can also begin lifting weights much earlier than you may realize. According to the American Council on Exercise, children can begin their journey with lifting weights around the age of 7 or 8, or as soon as they understand how to follow directions. As soon as your child is ready, start including strength training three days a week as part of your child's recommended 60 minutes of daily exercise. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Spark an Interest It is much easier for children who are 7 or 8 to understand ideas that are not abstract. Although it is certainly true that lifting weights will help improve your child's body composition and bone density without stunting his growth, these ideas will not likely spark your child's interest in lifting weights. To initially ignite weightlifting enthusiasm, talk to your child about how much fun he can have and how much better he can become at a sport or something he really enjoys by lifting weights. Get It Started Once your child is curious and even excited about lifting weights, decide how you will integrate weightlifting in a consistent routine. Plan to help your child work every major muscle group."

What is required by the various state car seat laws when you're on vacation? How long does your toddler or elementary school student need to remain in a booster seat? State car seat and booster seat laws are also updated occasionally, so if you haven't looked at the requirements for a few years, they may be entirely different from what you used for an older child. The complete list of state car seat laws is below. Before we get to the requirements for each state, let's talk about some of the phrases that commonly appear in the laws and what those might mean for you and your baby. Proper Use Many states now specify that parents must have their children in a properly used car seat or booster seat. There may be a phrase that says the car seat must be properly installed, and the law might reference the manufacturer's instructions as evidence of proper use or installation. Other laws say the child must ride in an \"\"appropriate\"\" car seat for the child's age and weight, meaning you're using it for a child who fits within the labeled weight, height, and age."

"text": "All children over the age of 2 must have a ticket for their own seat. Air travel is often expensive, with many airlines charging fees for checked baggage, meals and extra legroom. In some instances, travelers with children are able to catch a break on airline fees by qualifying for a reduced fare child's ticket or even receiving a free ticket for a lap baby. Infant Travel Airlines typically offer parents of children under 2 years of age the opportunity to hold the child on their lap. Tickets for lap babies are generally free or require payment of airline fees and taxes only on domestic flights, though a small ticket fee is commonly included on international flights. In addition, some airlines, such as Southwest, give a ticket discount to infants traveling in an FAA-approved child restraint, such as a car seat, while other airlines, such as United offer complementary bassinets for use on international flights with an infant under 6 months of age. Children on Domestic Flights Parents of children over the age of 2 are typically required to pay the full adult fare for their kids. Select airlines offer reduced fares for children, such as Southwest, though the discount offers vary by flight. Though a few discounts are available for children flying domestically, most airlines allow a stroller and a car seat to be included in a child's baggage allowance for no cost. For example, United Airlines allows customers to carry a diaper bag, breast pump and government approved child seat in addition to the maximum carry on allowance."

Brigadier Saif Muhair Al Mazroui, director of the police’s Traffic Department, said the police have fined 140 motorists in the last 14 months for violating this rule. Four children under the age of 10 died in traffic accidents last year and 75 were injured, said Brigadier Al Mazroui, who stressed that all children under 10 should be put in a child seat and restrained by the seatbelt when being seated in the rear of the vehicle. This must be followed till the child becomes as tall as 145cm. “Parents put their children at risk when they let them sit on the rear seat [without the child seat].”Brigadier Al Mazroui said reports in the UAE reveal that traffic accidents are the main cause of children’s deaths, apart from cases of children falling from buildings and drowning.“ [ Buckling them up in child seats] can reduce the impact of a traffic accident but when the child is left [unrestrained] in the back seat, any minor accident can injure the child,” Brigadier Al Mazroui added. At the same time, seating children under the age of 10 in the front seat of a vehicle will lead to a fine of Dh400 and four black points against the driver. Other precautions parents must take to ensure their child’s safety are monitoring children’s behaviour inside the vehicle and locking all doors and windows so that children cannot be tempted to put their head or hands outside when the vehicle is moving. He also warned parents against smoking in the car when children are present. This violation carries a fine of Dh500, which goes up to Dh10,000 if they are caught repeating the violation."

"text": "Thoughts about having a Lap Baby October 9, 2009 By: Beth Blair 44 Comments As parents, our number one concern is child safety. And so I ask, have you ever taken advantage of an airline’s “lap child” policy? My next questions: Would you ever sit your child on your lap riding on a roller coaster? How about cruising at 75 mph down the highway? A “lap child” is where children under age two are allowed to fly for “free” (here in the United States) if they sit on an adult’s lap the entire flight. Parents sometimes book a lap child hoping that the plane isn’t sold out so they can use an empty seat in their row. During my years as a flight attendant, I would cringe every time a family boarded with a lap child – because I believe there should be no such thing as a lap child. Why? Physics plus a worst-case scenario can equal a devastating outcome. Some parents assume that if the airline allows lap children, it must be okay."

"text": "\"Home / Children's Health / Safety & Childproofing / Car Seat Safety When should my child switch from a car seat to a booster seat? Stephanie Tombrellochild passenger safety specialist You can safely switch your child to a booster seat if she's at least 4 years old and she weighs 40 pounds or more or has grown too tall for her car seat (when her shoulders are higher than the top set of harness-strap slots in the car seat's back). Whatever you do, don't move your child to a booster seat simply because she's had her fourth birthday. Car seats are the safest option, so keep using yours as long as it fits. You'll also need to check the car seat law in your state (you can use the Child Safety Laws tool at the National Safe Kids Campaign site to look up local regulations). No matter when your child finally outgrows her car seat, it's imperative that you don't skip the booster-seat step and go straight to using seat belts alone. Although many parents do this (94 percent, according to recent reports), it's a dangerous mistake. Why? Because a booster positions your vehicle's lap and shoulder belts correctly on your child's torso. Without it, the belts will be too high, falling across her belly and neck, where they can do serious damage in a crash."

"text": "Height Requirement for a Child Riding in the Front Seatby SHARON PERKINS June 13, 2017The safest place for anyone in the car is the middle of the back seat. For kids, it's especially important to keep them in the back seat for as long as possible. Many states have enacted laws that specify when a child can sit in the front seat, based on height, weight or age. Even if your state hasn't done so, playing it conservatively when it comes to car safety will help keep your child safe. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Typical Regulations States that use height as a requirement for sitting in the front seat most often specify 4 feet, 9 inches, as the minimum suggested front-seat height. No child under the age of 13 should sit in the front seat, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Some states don't specifically list age, height or weight requirements for sitting in the front seat, but they do specify that children should reach 4 feet, 9 inches, before using an adult seat belt. Reasons for Restrictions A child's risk of injury in an accident drops 33 percent when he rides in the back seat rather than the front, according to the California Highway Patrol. Air bags -- designed to protect front-seat occupants -- can cause serious injury themselves if they inflate. For children below the height requirement, the inflating airbag can hit them in the face, chest, neck or head at speeds of between 90 to 210 miles per hour, the Auto Safety Expert website reports, causing potentially fatal trauma, including decapitation."

Most airlines require children under two to be accompanied by an adult over 18 years of age. However, some allow the adult to be only 14.

Many accidents can be prevented by simple precautions. The following are some tips to help secure your child's safety. Child Safety Seats (Car Seats)Transporting your child safely in the car is not an easy thing to do. Most parents make an attempt to fasten their children in properly, but a National Highway Transportation Safety Administration study found that 80 percent of all child safety seats are installed incorrectly or misused. The same study showed that in more than 50 percent of deaths due to car crashes in children less than 15 years old, the victims were not properly restrained. Research has shown that child safety seats reduce the risk of dying in a car crash by 71 percent. The lesson to be learned from these figures is that we need to secure our children, our older passengers, and ourselves properly each and every time we ride in a motor vehicle, no matter how short the trip may be. Keep in mind that most car crashes take place two miles or less from home. Recycling Car Seats Guidelines for Using Child Safety Seats Here is some basic information to use as guidelines for child safety seats and keeping older children safe in cars: Rear-Facing As Long As Possible into the Second Year of Life Infants are required to be rear-facing until one year of age and 20 pounds, but new crash studies show that infants are much safer if placed in the rear facing position."

A child restraint system may be a child safety seat, harness, vest or a booster seat. The vehicle's safety belt alone is not a child restraint system.

Follow 9 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: If the kitten was born and raised outside, they may have a tendency to want to maintain those outside habits inside your home. You may find that they might try and use your plants as a litter box. A kitten that was born and raised, for the first several weeks, inside by its mother will have the advantage of its mother's help in the litter training process, and other domestications. Kittens, generally, can begin to use a litter box at about four weeks of age, and a kitten being raised without its mother or adult cat will take slightly longer to litter train; so, keep this in mind when you begin the task of litter training your kitten. - Place the kitten in the box 1/2 hour after play or meals. -"

"text": "Method3 Taking Care of your Cat During Pregnancy and Lactation1 Identify if your cat is pregnant. There is no early diagnostic for feline pregnancies like there is for humans, so the earliest a pregnancy can be verified is at day 15 via an ultrasound. The following methods, when used by someone who is familiar with them, can be used to diagnose pregnancy in cats: Abdominal palpitations from day 20 - these should only be undertaken by someone with a lot of experience because you can easily cause a miscarriage if you are too forceful, and there are other parts of her abdomen that may feel lumpy. At this stage, the kittens feel like evenly spaced swellings about the size of un-shelled peanuts. Between day 35 and 49, it's not possible to feel the fetuses due to the sacs of fluid they are contained in. Ultra-sound - though the presence of kittens can be seen after 15 days, heartbeats appear at day 20. A test for the hormone relaxin can detect pregnancy in cats after about 25-30 days. [ 23]Morning sickness during the 3rd or 4th week of pregnancy - this doesn't occur for all cats, and includes apathy, vomiting and bring less interested in food, but only lasts for a day or two, and can easily be missed. X-ray - past day 43 an x-ray will show the bone-structure of the kittens, and is better than ultrasound at counting the number of kittens. External signs - by day 35 the nipples will begin to be pink and obvious, and the cat will noticeably increase in size."

"text": "Helping your new cat or kitten settle in▸ For settling in an adult cat see below Helping kittens to settle in Experiencing a brand new home is daunting for a tiny kitten. Every kitten has a unique personality; some are shy while others are confident. Whatever their character, this is potentially a traumatic transition for kittens as they are leaving their mothers and siblings for the first time. With this in mind it’s best to choose a room where it can be kept for the first few weeks to adjust gradually to its new surroundings. This confinement also aids toilet training and avoids the risk of ‘accidents’ elsewhere in the house. Careful selection of the appropriate room should take the following into consideration: Avoid a room with full-length curtains initially as a kitten will run up them and perch at the top. Check the room for potential hazards such as fireplaces or poisonous plants and make it as safe as possible. Remember that kittens can get into very small spaces. Make sure any hazardous substances are out of harm’s way and cupboards where they are kept are not accessible by curious kittens. Cats and poisons Remove all breakable objects from shelves and windowsills and secure all cupboard doors."

"text": "\"Kittens Pets Cats Tracking Kittens Development: The First Six Weeks By Franny Syufy Updated 07/13/17Share Pin Emailcoreylynntucker / Getty Images The all-important first six weeks in a cat's life will do much in determining his personality and character for the rest of his life. ( Yes, cats have character. Ask anyone who is owned by one.) Healthwise, this period is also extremely important to the developing kitten, as very young kittens are susceptible to a number of serious threats, such as fleas and URIs (Upper Respiratory Infections), which combined with other problems can lead to Fading Kitten Syndrom, a serious and often fatal condition. FKS, as it is often caused, is more often found with litters of stray and feral cats, so if you are in a kitten foster situation, those kittens should be kept away from other cats in the home until they have all been checked clear of communicable disease. Kittens will probably never grow again at the remarkable rate they accomplish during this period, and seeing the changes in their development from week to week is an incredible experience. We'll start off by recapping the first week and move on from there. Week 1: Tiny Food Processing Factories Although during the first week of a kitten's life he will be concentrating on feeding and growth, (he will double his birth weight this week) other physical changes are taking place which will become more apparent soon, so hold onto your hat!Week 2Your kitten is continuing his growth at an astonishing rate, by at least 10 grams per day.

Please click here for a printer-friendly PDF version. A kitten may need hand raising because the mother has died, become ill, rejected the kittens or abandoned them. In the case of feral cats, the kittens may have been taken from the mother for taming. Kittens should not be taken from the mother before 5 to 6 weeks of age if possible. ( For wild kittens you may want to take them away from the mother at 4 weeks to tame them. As they get older, taming gets progressively harder.) The longer the mother cat is able to feed the kittens the better since young kittens need mother's milk for best nutrition as well as important antibodies. This passive immunity usually lasts until the kittens are 6-14 weeks of age. Since orphans have no such protection, they are especially vulnerable to disease."

"text": "\"provided courtesy of Cynthia King, The Kasbah, Ltd. General Behavior Care Purchasing Registration and Showing General Why are Savannah cats such desirable companion pets? Many people dream of sharing their lives with an exotic cat but most find that this is not a practical option. Specialized dietary requirements, challenges brought on by less than perfect litter box habits, space constraints and federal, state and local laws prohibiting exotic ownership make acquiring an exotic cat difficult, if not an impossible challenge for most people. The Savannah cat, bred to strongly resemble an African Serval, is not only very exotic in appearance, but the largest domestic cat in existence today. Much smaller than its African Serval ancestor, the Savannah demonstrates a milder, more predictable temperament, and does not require the specialized care of an exotic cat, which makes it a very appropriate and exciting alternative to those longing for pure exotic ownership. What's the difference between a Savannah and a Serval? An African Serval is a 30-50 pound exotic cat, regulated in the United States as a wild animal. The Savannah is a hybrid of the African Serval and grows to approximately 15-20 pounds at maturity. While strongly resembling the African Serval, Savannahs are bred to demonstrate domestic temperament and are classified as domestic cats by both the USDA and The International Cat Association ( TICA ). What is their life span?"

"text": "Cat Health How Long Does It Take for the First Litter of Kittens to Be Born?by Melodie Anne It won't take long for your new fuzzy buddies to arrive. The day has finally come: Your best furry companion is delivering her first litter of kittens. If you're overwhelmed, imagine how little Fluffy is feeling. Since she'll be in labor for hours, its best to plan ahead, put together a birthing plan and have an emergency contact ready, just in case. Getting Pregnant Female cats become sexually mature between 4 and 10 months of age, but 6 months old about average, according to the Cats of Australia website. A female will start going into heat cycles that last for about a week. While in heat, she'll be overly affectionate, she'll meow loudly to call a mate, she'll frequently lick between her hind legs and may roll around constantly. Heat cycles occur every two to three weeks. Keep Fluffy away from intact male kitties during this time, otherwise you'll wind up having a litter of kittens to care for. Beginning Stages Cats are perfectly capable of delivering their litter of kittens all on their own, but you should know what to expect in case any problems arise."

"text": "How to Housetrain Your Kitten In the absence of his mother, you can train a kitten how to use a litter box. A mother cat will begin training her kitten to use the litter box as soon as she has been weaned. By the time you bring your new kitten home, the odds are that she has already been trained to use the litter box. Because of the care a mother kitten takes in instructing her kittens, it is important to wait until your kitten is 12-14 weeks old before welcoming him into your home so that he is already accustomed to using the litter box. Your kitten requires the sibling play and the life skills training from his mother before he is ready to join your family. If, however, you have rescued an orphan kitten or adopted a very young kitten, you will need to take his mother’s place in the housetraining process. It likely will not come as naturally to you, so here is the routine: Your newborn or very young kitten (up to 3 weeks) needs to be stimulated to go just after he is fed. To do this, wet a warm washcloth or paper towel and gently rub his genital area until your kitten urinates and defecates. It is important to do this after each feeding. This may seem unusual, but since a very young kitten is unable to perform the bodily functions on his own, the mother (or human mother) must take over."

This disease can be spread from mother to kittens either in the womb or while nursing, so it's important to have your little one tested before introducing him to other cats. Feline Leukemia Virus The feline leukemia virus, also referred to as Fe LV, is caused by a retrovirus that suppresses your kitty's immune system. This condition is especially serious in kittens because of their already weak immune system that is still developing. The virus is easily spread among kitties and can be contained in a kitty's saliva and blood. This means that a kitty can become infected by using shared food or water bowls and litter boxes. The disease can also be passed through mutual grooming and during serious fights that result in a bite. Moms who have the disease can spread it to their litter through the placenta prior to birth. If born healthy, kittens can also become infected when they nurse from her or when she grooms them."

They are from the wild Asian Leopard bloodline, but generations away separate them from the wild to a domesticated tame cat. They are Hypoallergenic Cats. But they are very curious and have a lot of energy in their adolescent stage from 4 weeks to 6 months old. They need plenty of scratchier and toys to keep them occupied. Having two kittens will be much easier on them and you, they will play with each other, instead of crying because of being alone. When they are older being alone is ok, they don't mind it. There are many good books and the Internet to read up on them, and this information will be useful to you.

Kittens this young need lots of love, special care, feeding and handling to ensure they grow up healthy and happy. Snuggle Spot Kittens younger than 10 weeks old need a warm bed, to prevent them from becoming chilled, according to Vetstreet. An ideal spot is a simple cardboard box lined with a warm blanket. Place a heating pad into the box as well, set to low. Wrap it in a towel or blanket so it won't accidentally burn your kitty. Leave enough room in the box so your furbaby can move away from the heating pad if he gets a bit too warm. Another option is a heated cat bed, which contains a heating pad inside a soft, furry cover."

"text": "\"For those of you who want a quick answer….. A short synopsis of having kittens: Reproduction The domestic cat usually reaches puberty at around nine or ten months of age. A sexually mature female cat goes into heat, or estrus, several times a year; during estrus, she is both receptive to, and attractive to, male cats. The gestation period of the cat is about 65 days; the average litter consists of 4 kittens. Kittens are born blind, deaf, and helpless. Their eyes open at 8 to 10 days of age, and they begin to be weaned about 6 weeks after birth.~~~~~~~~Now for the longer version with definitions: Baby Teeth - A cat's baby teeth grow to full size by about eight weeks, and at five to six months they are replaced by permanent ones. Calling - You've probably heard the sound of a female feline in heat. It's a continuous yowling that she emits until a male cat gets her message. Dam - a mother cat Heat - The period in which a cat is capable of becoming pregnant. The number of daylight hours determines the cat's cycle. Most females begin to go into heat in February or March, and continue every two or three weeks until the days begin to get shorter in the fall."

Diana Taliun/i Stock/Thinkstock Dr. Laci Schaible3 years ago If you find your older cat spending much of her day in deep slumber, you may wonder just how much sleep is normal for a senior cat and when is it worrisome. The fact is, it’s normal for an older cat’s sleep patterns to change — and that typically involves sleeping more. There are some medical issues you’ll want to look out for, though. You’ll also want to help your senior kitty get the most comfortable rest possible. Normal Aging Changes In Cats Your adult cat is considered a senior when she reaches around 11 years of age. While not all cats begin to show obvious cognitive and physical declines this early, normal aging changes in cats happen gradually and are subtle. You may first notice a soft graying around her face or thinning of her coat. Her hearing may not be as sharp, or her appetite as hearty. She may be slower to rise from resting and she may no longer have the ability to jump to heights she used to with ease."

Usually about two days before giving birth your cat's mammary glands will increase in size and she will begin producing milk. Stage 1 - The onset of labour is often around 12 hours before the appearance of the first kitten.. The cat's temperature will decrease to about 99 degrees F and you may notice a drop in her appetite. She may become restless and begin nesting in earnest. She may follow you around and become very affectionate or pace from room to room. Other signs are that she may begin purring, meowing, panting, licking her genitals and she may vomit. You may notice a vaginal discharge. Not all signs apply to all cats."

"text": "(Rachel Orr/Washington Post illustration; i Stock)Major League Baseball was in a home run recession. Entering the 2015 season, league-wide home run totals had been dropping precipitously, from 4,934 in 2012 to a 20-year low of 4,186 in 2014. A variety of factors explained the plunge in power. Even beyond stricter drug-testing guidelines weeding out the performance-enhancing-drug-fueled sluggers of the late 1990s and early 2000s, new approaches and strategies were hindering hitters. Higher velocities from pitchers and an ever-expanding strike zone put strikeouts at an all-time high. Managers began treating pitchers as sprinters rather than long-distance runners, calling more frequently to the bullpen for fresher arms with better pitch-placement at crucial times, while front offices focused on stockpiling hard-throwing relievers. The downward trend in offense was easily understandable. And that’s what makes the 2015 season so mysterious. Last season, MLB’s home run total jumped by 723, or 17.3 percent, a spike not seen since 1996 when homers boomed by 21.6 percent in the nascent days of MLB’s so-called steroid era. Since 1970, baseball has only witnessed six seasons in which the home run total increased by 700 or more."

The most common reasons includes: when the child turns 18, graduation from high school, or age 19, and sometimes never for special needs children. There are twists and turns in Florida child support law and it is worth it to read on, and compare the law to your specific circumstance. In Depth Required Termination Date on Court Orders & Problems In the past decade, Florida enacted a statute that requires all child support orders to contain a end date for child support, specifying that child support ends on the child’s 18th birthday. When there are multiple children included in a child support order, child support is calculated for different dates in the future, as each child reaches the age of 18. An Income Withholding Order, an IWO (formerly called an Income Deduction Order) normally accompanies child support orders. The IWO is also required to contain end dates for child support. If there are several children, the IWO should contain changed amounts of child support as each child ages out."

"text": "30 Ways To Slow and Prevent Agingby Darya Rose | Nov 18, 2009Today is my 30th birthday and a perfect time to reflect on life, the universe and everything. Despite being female and thus held to tough and often unrealistic physical standards, hitting the end of my third decade doesn’t cause me anxiety about either my appearance or place in the world. In my experience, age is not an amount of time but a state of mind. As a child I always wanted to be a grown up, so I acted like one. It freaked my parents out sometimes, but that’s just how I was. In my mind, I still feel pretty much the same in that regard. I love to work hard and I thrive in positions of responsibility. Since both these traits get more important with age, I have actually enjoyed stepping into the adult role I’ve always felt I belonged in. But that’s only one part of me. In many other ways I’m as juvenile as ever."

The root origin is also associated with the verbs “to burn” or “to glow”. In essence, an ember is a glowing object representing the remains of a dying fire. Metaphorically, an ember is also sometimes associated with the remains of passion; the not-yet-distinguished leftovers of great emotion (especially love). Like a “spark”. As a female given name Ember has just come into circulation in the 21st century as American parents look for new and creative vocabulary words to use as given names for their children. Ember could also be considered an altered form of Amber. Ember is mainly used in the United States and occasionally in Canada. Popularity of the Name Ember Ember is a pretty new name."

Andy ultimately originated from the Greek name “Andreas”, stemming from ‘andr’ which translates into “man” or “warrior”. Andrew is the name of the first disciple called by Jesus in the New Testament. A Galilean fisherman and the brother of St. Peter, St. Andrew was a follower of John the Baptist and one of the first to recognize Jesus as the Messiah. After the Resurrection, St. Andrew went on to preach in Asia Minor and Greece. He became one of the most popular saints in the Middle Ages and was chosen to be the patron saint of Russia, Greece and Scotland. It has long been a widely popular boys’ name in the English-speaking world, but particularly in Scotland. All forms of this name are very popular throughout the Western world. Andy developed as a pet form of the anglicized Andrew. Remarkably, it has been in use as an independently given name for at least two or three centuries."

Since God wants people to celebrate life abundantly ( John 10:10 ), could this include celebrating birthdays? Is birthday-keeping innocent fun—or does God hate it? Does it even matter? If you bought a new computer, you would expect it to come with an instruction manual. Without a manual, you would have to learn how to use it through trial and error—and possibly delete necessary files and software in the process. The instruction manual saves users many headaches.

Many religions celebrate the birth of their founders or religious figures with special holidays (e.g. Christmas, Mawlid, Buddha's Birthday, and Krishna Janmashtami ).

If you're contemplating bringing a cockatiel into your home, average life expectancy of the species is a vital aspect to consider. About Cockatiels Cockatiels are dainty, smallish parrots that are part of the family Cacatuinae. They typically grow to between 11 and 14 inches in length. As far as plumage coloration goes, cockatiels are frequently gray, white or yellow, although with prominent and bright orange blots. However, many diverse color mutations of the species also exist, whether snow-white albinos, \"\"gold cheeks\"\" or any of numerous other varieties. Their temperaments are often companionable and pleasant, and they are adept at copying voices and other sounds. Out in the wild, cockatiels tend to gravitate away from coastal regions. They are not big fans of thick woodlands and seem to appreciate airy settings. Common habitats for them include farming sites, savannas and scrubland."

"text": "Your pet cockatiel's environment should stay between 65 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit, and her cage must be free from drafts. A captive cockatiel can stand a wide range of temperatures, as long as the changes are gradual. A sudden drop in temperatures, though, is dangerous for her. Adaptable Cockatiels are native to arid and semiarid parts of Australia, where they can experience temperatures as low as 30 degrees and as high as 100 degrees Fahrenheit. That's a broad range in temperatures, but your pet cockatiel has had the luxury of living indoors all her life -- she isn't acclimated to handle sudden drops in temperature. That's not to say that she couldn't become used to a change in the weather if it was gradual; she just shouldn't be subjected to an abrupt drop of 15 degrees or more. Danger From the Cold Experiencing an extreme drop below her comfort zone can leave a captive cockatiel vulnerable to illness, shock and death. If yours catches a chill, she could become sick. Shivering and fluffed feathers indicate she is cold. Increase the heat around her slowly, as an abrupt increase in temperature is just as dangerous as a sudden drop."

Potential owners ought to be aware of their pet’s age that helps them in feeding these birds. There is a significant difference among the ages of multiple parrots; besides, the age is largely determined by the size of the parrot. The larger the size is, the longer the expected lifespan of the parrot. Since these birds are mostly kept under captivity they are generally expected to live a longer life as compared to other wild birds. Parrots are considered to be one of the most intelligent birds. These birds are generally found in the tropical and subtropical regions including Australia, Southeast Asia, South America, Philippines, New Guinea, Mexico, Europe and Bahamas.

Share Email Print Feedback Definition Hypersensitivity pneumonitis, also known as hypersensitivity pneumonia and extrinsic allergic alveolitis, is a form of interstitial lung disease characterized by an immunologically mediated inflammatory response (hypersensitivity reaction) to inhaled organic antigens in susceptible individuals. [ 1]A related entity is \"\"hot tub lung,\"\" which is currently believed to be a hypersensitivity pneumonitis –like response to nontuberculous mycobacteria found in hot tubs and other warm-water aerosols. [ 2, 3] Debate persists, however, regarding whether hot tub lung is a hypersensitivity reaction or a true infection. [ 4] For an excellent discussion of this issue, the reader is referred to the comprehensive review by Sood et al. [ 5]Epidemiology Hypersensitivity pneumonitis is mainly a disease of adults. Both sexes are affected, although there is a predilection for women. Most patients with this condition do not smoke. [ 6, 7, 8]Hot tub lung is a relatively rare condition, with only a few case reports and small series reported in the literature since the initial, virtually simultaneous, descriptions by Embil et al and Kahana et al in 1997. [ 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 4, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 7] Only 59 cases of hot tub lung had been reported as of 2007, [ 5] and only a few more cases have been reported since then. [ 21, 22] Hot tub lung affects adults of both sexes; rare cases have also been reported in children."

"text": "Pets Birds Trimming a Cockatiel’s Wing Feathers Trimming a Cockatiel’s Wing Feathers You can give your cockatiel varying amounts of flight capability depending on the amount of feathers you clip on her wings. With cockatiel chicks who haven’t mastered flying, it’s a good idea to gradually clip their wings. Cockatiels who learn to fly, land, and use their bodies to move about a cage are surer of themselves when they’ve lost the ability to fly. For this reason, start by clipping just the two outer flight feathers on each wing of a cockatiel who is just learning to fly. The cockatiel will be slowed down but will still fly quite well. About a week later, clip the next two feathers. The next week, clip the next two feathers, and so on. With this schedule, by the time a cockatiel is grounded, she will have gradually lost the ability to fly and gotten progressively better at controlling her mobility. She’ll still confidently hop about a cage and will know how to land. Ideally a breeder will use this method of clipping before you ever get your bird."

"text": "How Long Does It Take For Cockatiel Eggs To Hatch ? Usually cockatiels are sexually matured by the time they reach the age of one. However, it is always advisable to wait until your bird is 2 years old before you decide to mate it. Invariably, a female cockatiel will breed until she is 8 to 10 years old, while a male cockatiel stays fertile until he is around 12 years to 14 years of age. However, in order for a cockatiel pair to breed successfully in captivity, it has to be healthy. Many times due to malnourishment, obesity or vitamin deficiency, cockatiels cannot breed and procreate successfully. Also, in captivity, many cockatiel pairs do not make ideal parents as they have not learned parenting by observing other birds. Cockatiels should be bred during the summer months and should not be allowed to have more than two clutches each year. So, ensure that the nest boxes are placed some time during April and removed by August. Once the cockatiel pair mates, within a few weeks the female will lay eggs in the nestbox that you have provided for her."

Generally hens are darker yellow than cocks. - In pearls the cocks lose their markings and by the first moult they are the same as normals. - In white cheeks the hens have no white mask but look a grey colour. - In pieds the cocks lose the under-wing markings after the first moult. - Generally the actions of the bird can be a help in sexing. Cocks whistle and have an almost tuneful sound while hens only have a one note song. - - Probably the most evident sign is the cocks strutting walk which develops fairly quickly.- It is possible to tell the colouration of the chicks although they have only down.

So learn how to take care of these smart pets, because when healthy, they can be keeping you company for 15 to 20 years!Keeping Your Cockatiel Healthy Consider yourself your bird's chef, caterer, housekeeper and taxi service. You can help your cockatiel live longer by providing him with healthy food, clean living conditions and a trip to the vet if needed. Cockatiels are generally healthy unless kept in dirty, crowded conditions or fed incorrectly. Provide filtered sunlight during the day, fresh food and water daily, and clean your cockatiel's cage twice a week or more as needed. Remove uneaten fruit and vegetables from your bird's cage within a couple of hours of feeding. Your bird may be sick if he has dirty feathers, is sitting fluffed up in a corner of his cage or has watery eyes or diarrhea."

Mate for Life In nature, some birds are known to mate for life, while others choose a new mate every breeding season. Cockatiels are one of the birds who have been observed to mate for life. In the wild, they choose their own mates and stay together. Cockatiels in captivity may choose a mate if they're in the same aviary or store, or they may be given a mate by their owner. Cockatiels are extremely loving, cuddly birds, and they show their love and devotion to their mates as long as they remain together.

They can mate sooner but ten months is too young to breed and can cause problems such as infertile eggs and poor parenting. Some males will develop slower than others so it is better to error on the side of caution than to rush the natural development process. Keep in mind that females mature at 15-18 months and to breed them sooner can cause egg binding and other serious problems. Breeding is something to be taken under careful consideration and I hope you will do a lot of research before even considering breeding birds. Please click on to Bird Information (upper left corner of page) for a few basic articles that discuss breeding. Below are a few links that may be helpful to you:http://www.letstalkbirds.com/cockatiels.htm\"\"Cockatiels become sexually mature between 6 and 9 months of age. You should not breed cockatiels until the male and female are at least 12 months old, with a preferable cockatiel breeding age of 18 months. \"\" http://bananariveraviariesindex.home...ockatiels.html\"\"Breeding age: Although Cockatiels are capable of producing and raising young prior to 18 months of age it is detrimental to their health and well being and that of their young prior to 18 months."

The birds are normally weaned between seven to 10 weeks of age, but they are often not sold until they are two to three months old. Adolescence occurs around four to six months and begins at the first molt or shedding of feathers. Up to this time, females and males have the exact same appearance."

"text": "\"Is My Cockatiel Male or Female? With young cockatiels the male and female look the same so it is difficult to decipher their sex until they have been through their first molt at around six to nine months of age. Only then will the adult coloring show. Normal gray cockatiels are easily sexed once the adult plumage is through. You will notice that the coloring is more defined with the male having a bright yellow face, whereas the female has a gray face with traces of pale yellow. The male's body is a dark gray but the female's appears duller with almost a brown tint to the gray. Also, until their first molt both sexes have barring patterns on the underside of their tail feathers. After the molt the male's tail feathers will be a solid gray color with no barring, but the female's will remain patterned. Cockatiels do have a reputation for demanding attention of their owners on a regular basis. Their vocalizations range from soft cheeps to piercing cries."

"text": "All children over the age of 2 must have a ticket for their own seat. Air travel is often expensive, with many airlines charging fees for checked baggage, meals and extra legroom. In some instances, travelers with children are able to catch a break on airline fees by qualifying for a reduced fare child's ticket or even receiving a free ticket for a lap baby. Infant Travel Airlines typically offer parents of children under 2 years of age the opportunity to hold the child on their lap. Tickets for lap babies are generally free or require payment of airline fees and taxes only on domestic flights, though a small ticket fee is commonly included on international flights. In addition, some airlines, such as Southwest, give a ticket discount to infants traveling in an FAA-approved child restraint, such as a car seat, while other airlines, such as United offer complementary bassinets for use on international flights with an infant under 6 months of age. Children on Domestic Flights Parents of children over the age of 2 are typically required to pay the full adult fare for their kids. Select airlines offer reduced fares for children, such as Southwest, though the discount offers vary by flight. Though a few discounts are available for children flying domestically, most airlines allow a stroller and a car seat to be included in a child's baggage allowance for no cost. For example, United Airlines allows customers to carry a diaper bag, breast pump and government approved child seat in addition to the maximum carry on allowance."

Find out which airlines still offer these senior fares. Date: June 17, 2011 Author: David Smidt, Senior Discounts Do airlines still provide discounts to seniors on their air fares? The short answer is yes, but the senior fares may be difficult to find, may not always be the best available price, and may not be obtainable on all flights. However, it could still be worth the effort to track them down. The majority of airline tickets are now purchased online, and in the age of the Internet, ticket pricing has become very competitive and ticket prices can change rapidly. This is one of the reasons there are fewer senior discounted airline fares now than there was five or ten years ago. This also means that the senior discount may not always be the best price available. While most airlines now guarantee that the best fare can be found on its web site, only a few provide an online option to search for the senior rate. There are certain advantages to the senior airfare discounts."

It is promoted by Transport for London and is valid on travel modes across London including London Underground, London Buses, the Docklands Light Railway (DLR), London Overground, Tramlink, some river boat services, and most National Rail services within the London fare zones. A standard Oyster card is a blue credit-card-sized stored-value contactless smartcard that can hold single tickets, period tickets and travel permits, which must be added to the card before travel. Passengers touch it on an electronic reader when entering and leaving the transport system in order to validate it or deduct funds. Cards may be \"\"topped-up\"\" by recurring payment authority, by online purchase, at credit card terminals or by cash, the last two methods at stations or ticket offices. The card is designed to reduce the number of transactions at ticket offices and the number of paper tickets. Usage is encouraged by offering substantially cheaper fares than with cash [2] though the acceptance of cash is being phased out."

"text": "Q: I have a debate with some of my friends with kids. We have elementary school kids to haul around at times, and sometimes end up with four kids, all under age 13. We want to know if it is legal to put the biggest or oldest in the front seat as long as he or she is over age 8 and has outgrown the car seat. Can you help shed some light on this? We’d rather not have to buy a minivan just to haul around the fourth neighbor kid to the soccer game. A: The answer comes from State Patrol Trooper Cliff Pratt: The law on this is referenced in RCW 46.61.687 subsection 1c: (c) The driver of a vehicle transporting a child who is under thirteen years old shall transport the child in the back seat positions in the vehicle where it is practical to do so. As written by the Washington State Legislature, you can seat children over 8 years old secured in a properly adjusted safety belt in the front seat if there is no other practical place for them to sit. If a child must ride in the front, move the seat as far back as possible, to be away from the air bag and take extra care to make sure the child is buckled up properly. The Washington State Patrol recommends that all children 13 and under sit in the back seat when practical and reminds drivers that all children under 40 pounds are required to use a child safety seat. Those over 40 pounds should use a booster seat until they can wear a safety belt comfortably."

Army Rangers By Marshall Moore; Updated October 04, 2017Army Ranger students learning proper patrol techniques Soldiers in the United States Army's 75th Ranger Regiment are some of the finest combat troops the service has to offer. In order to become an Army Ranger, soldiers must be in excellent physical condition, intelligent and be exceptionally qualified within their military occupational specialty. In addition to these qualifications, Army Rangers must meet certain basic age criteria in order to be considered for selection and assignment. Basic Age Requirements Army Ranger in camouflage during training There are technically no specific age requirements for soldiers seeking to become Army Rangers. Thus, the effective age limits are the same as those required to join the Army in the first place. Applicants must be at least 17 years old (or 18 without parental permission) and no older than 41 years old. While these are the minimum and maximum ages, however, keep in mind the Army Rangers must be both extremely qualified in their job field and in excellent physical fitness [Reference 2]. Thus, the odds of an 18-year-old with little Army experience being accepted into the 75th Ranger Regiment are slim to none. In the same vein, a 40-year-old applicant whose best athletic days have passed him by is just as likely to be passed over. Officer Age Requirements U. S.

Thus, the odds of an 18-year-old with little Army experience being accepted into the 75th Ranger Regiment are slim to none. In the same vein, a 40-year-old applicant whose best athletic days have passed him by is just as likely to be passed over. Officer Age Requirements U. S. Army Ranger rappels down tower The Rangers do not put an age limit on officers looking to join the regiment. However, they must be ranked between first lieutenant and major (O-2 to O-4)."

"text": "Army Graduation Ceremony Tipsby Stacey Abler on May 16, 2010When your soldier graduates from an Army school, it is an event that should be attended by everyone who is important to him. Unless your soldier is in OSUT (One Station Unit Training), there will be a graduation from basic training and a graduation from AIT (Advanced Individualized Training). Your soldier will have graduation ceremonies from Airborne, RASP (Ranger Assessment and Selection Program), Special Forces, OCS and several others if he attends these schools. Receiving Information about Graduation The soldier will inform the command who should receive information about the graduation ceremonies and family day (if there is one). In most cases, the information is delivered to the spouse or parents but the soldier can have it sent to anyone that he would like. He will also have details about the ceremony ahead of time to inform you. Most post websites have a section for school graduations as well. Who Can Attend Army Graduation Ceremonies? Anyone is welcome to attend the graduation ceremony, including children. This is a big day in the life of your soldier and it should be celebrated."

Kristen Griest, right, talks to another soldier as she waits at Lawson Airfield for the Airborne Assault exercise to begin during U. S. Army's Ranger School at Fort Benning, Ga. Griest and 1st Lt. Shayne Haver are the first women to complete the grueling Ranger School and were scheduled to graduate Friday, Aug. 21, alongside 94 male soldiers at Fort Benning, Ga., families of the soldiers confirmed Wednesday, Aug. 19. ( Robin Trimarchi/Ledger-Enquirer via AP) (Robin Trimarchi)By Leada [email protected] The military's push for gender equality among its ranks will likely result in the requirement that both sexes register for the draft, according to Army Secretary John Mc Hugh. \"\" If your objective is true and pure equality then you have to look at all aspects\"\" of the roles of women in the military, Mc Hugh said. \"\" Registration will be one of those things that will have to be considered. \"\" Currently, men age 18-25 are required to register with Selective Service Systems, an independent government agency. The men provide their full name, date of birth, gender, Social Security number and current mailing address. Failure to register can be a felony and limits access to things such as student loans and government jobs. Mc Hugh's comments come as the services work to follow a 2013 order to incorporate women into all but a few combat positions."

"text": "Tonga Source: World Travel Guide Tonga's 176 islands range from steep, active volcanoes to low coral forms, most of which are uninhabited. The islands were first visited by the Dutch in the early 17th century, and later by the British seafarer Captain Cook, who dubbed the archipelago the ‘friendly islands’ in 1773. The adoption of Christianity by the ruling family – which followed the arrival of Methodist missionaries in the 1820s – and an overall policy of accommodation with the British - then the principal imperial power in the area - meant that the islands were not formally colonised. The ruling family of Tonga, the last remaining Polynesian Kingdom, can be traced back more than 1000 years. Sightseeing highlights include the Royal Palace on the waterfront in Nuku’alofa, the Mala’ekula (Royal Tombs) and the Anahulu Cave, an underground cavern of stalactites and stalagmites. The islanders enjoy a laidback pace of life which visitors find easy to adopt, whether relaxing on one of the magnificent white sand beaches, diving among the stunning coral reefs or watching the migratory whales return to their breeding grounds from June to November.

"text": "Commercial Insurance Update – You’re at the Rental Car Counter – What Coverage Do You Need?please click here for the original pdf June 2007You’re at the Rental Car Counter What Coverage Do You Need? By Jeffrey W. Cavignac, CPCU, ARM, RPLU, CRIS © 2007 Cavignac & Associates — All Rights Reserved One of the questions most frequently asked of an insurance broker is “What coverage do I need to buy when I rent a car?” Unfortunately, the answer is not an easy one. It is important to recognize that every rental contract is different. It is impossible to address every variation of the provisions that you might be confronted with at a rental counter. Each rental car agreement should be evaluated for actual terms and conditions. Recognize as well that rental car companies make a lot of money selling insurance. They want you to buy their coverage. In general, when you rent a vehicle, you are given three insurance options. Option 1 — Personal Effects Coverage Personal effects coverage is designed to cover property in the vehicle from theft or damage."

Produced since 1993, the E-Class falls midrange in the Mercedes line-up, and has been marketed worldwide across five generations. Before 1993, the E in Mercedes-Benz nomenclature was a suffix following a vehicle's model number which stood for Einspritzmotor (German for fuel injection engine ). It began to appear in the early 1960s, when that feature began to be utilized broadly in the maker's product line, and not just in its upper tier luxury and sporting models. By the launch of the facelifted W124 in 1993 fuel-injection was ubiquitous in Mercedes engines, and the E was adopted as a prefix (i.e., E 220) and the model line referred to officially as the E-Class (or E-Klasse ). All generations of the E-Class have offered either rear-wheel drive or Mercedes' 4Matic four-wheel drive system. Historically, the E-Class is Mercedes-Benz' best-selling model, with more than 13 million sold by 2015. [ 1] The First E-Klasse series was originally available as four-door sedan, five-door station wagon, 2 door coupe and 2 door convertible. From 1997 to 2009, the equivalent coupe and convertible were sold under the Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class nameplate; which was actually based on the mechanical underpinnings of the smaller C-Class while borrowing the styling and some powertrains from the E-Class, a trend continued with the C207 E-Class coupe/convertible which was sold parallel to the W212 E-Class sedan/wagon. With the latest incarnation of the E-Class released for the 2017 model year, all body styles share the same W213 platform. ["

Remember when you first started driving and were so nervous about changing gears? Now you are not even aware of changing gears. So after a couple of hours of being ‘conscious’ of using the other hand to change gears, you’ll soon get into the rhythm of it. Just go slowly until you’re confident. Funnily enough, the fact that you’re driving on the ‘wrong’ side of the road is made easier by having the steering wheel on the left. At least all the hire cars are automatic or stick-shift, so you don't have to worry about changing gears! When you're thinking of renting a car, you are often presented with a choice of 3 or more companies. Sometimes what appears to be the lowest priced often turns out to be the most expensive. Some of the things you should consider and compare before choosing a car rental company would be: What extras do you have to pay?"

Most of the rules are the same as you would expect in Western Europe. Despite being common in other countries, turning right or left at a red light is illegal.

Normally roads which go south-north have even numbers and roads which go west-east have odd numbers. Israel has a bad record for traffic accidents and so you are advised to drive cautiously, especially on the desert roads where there is no barrier between oncoming lanes.

"text": "Places That Hire at 14 and 15: Where to Apply!William Lipovsky | Jan 21, 2018vectorfusionart / Shutterstock.om Are you a young teen looking for gainful employment? In this article, we reveal the grocery stores, restaurants, theaters, amusement parks, and resorts that hire 14-year-olds and 15-year-olds. A teenager can head to these businesses for part-time work in the summer, after school, or on weekends. Because policies at chain stores vary because of franchises and state laws, it’s always a good idea to check with your local store’s management to make sure that they’re able to accept your application and consider hiring you. If you’re a 14- or 15-year-old hoping to work at a clothing retail store, you may have to hang on for another year or two — we couldn’t find any clothing retailers that hire employees younger than 16. In This Article Limitations on Working as a Minor Pay for 14- and 15-Year-Old Employees Table of All Places That Hire at 14 and 15Grocery Stores That Hire at 14 and 15Restaurants That Hire at 14 and 15Theaters, Amusement Parks, and Resorts That Hire at 14 and 15Places That Don’t Hire at 14 and 15Other Ways to Earn Money Limitations There are a few limitations to working as a minor. These rules apply to all employers, regardless of industry: The federal minimum wage is $7.25 per hour for most employees, but federal law permits a youth minimum wage, which allows employers to pay employees under 20 years old wages as low as $4.25 for their first 90 days of employment (or until they reach age 20). However, some states don’t permit youth minimum wages and have set local minimum wages higher than $7.25. You cannot work for more than three hours on a school day or 18 hours in a school week. You can only work between 7 AM and 7 PM, except for between June 1 and Labor Day, when those hours extend to 9 PM to accommodate for summer employment."

"text": "Younger drivers may have difficulty in renting a car. Young adults, particularly those below age 25, may run into challenges when traveling through the United States. Renting a car is especially tricky, as many car rental agencies set a minimum age requirement of 25. Policies often vary from state to state and even from rental agency branch to branch, making it essential to contact the office of choice well in advance of a trip. Legal Age of Majority The legal age of majority in every state is 18. Younger travelers are not legally able to sign a contract, which would put the car rental agency at risk if the renter decided not to pay. Additionally, the rental agency could be liable if a younger renter was injured in an accident or injured someone else. Consequently, no car rental agency in the United States will rent to a driver under 18. Rental Agency Discretion As of publication, only New York and Michigan have state laws requiring car rental agencies to rent to drivers age 18 and over. All other states allow rental car companies the discretion to set their minimum age requirement, which is typically but not always 25."

Plus many car insurance companies push renters to purchase insurance and there have been numerous complaints of visitors purchasing insurance they didn't need or want. So, what insurance is needed when renting a car in. California? It is hard to provide specific advice as people are different with different risk profiles and situations in life.

Though all rental car drivers must meet Enterprise's basic requirements, certain driver requirements vary based on vehicle pick-up location, driver's age and form of payment. Drivers who do not meet all of the requirements are unable to rent a vehicle from Enterprise. General Requirements Enterprise requires that all rental car drivers provide a currently valid driver's license that is issued by the renter's state or residence to be inspected at the time of the vehicle rental. Licenses must not be any form of a learner's permit, temporary license or a copy of the original document. All drivers must also have means to pay for the rental and be willing to pay the full rental amount as well as a deposit fee. Payment Requirements All Enterprise rental locations accept major credit cards for rental car payment. The credit card must be in the renter's name and have available credit. At the time of publication, select Enterprise branches accept Visa and Master Card debit cards as a form of payment, however additional requirements must be met, such as providing a round-trip ticket at an airport location."

Where can you find this information online? Thanks,—NHTDear Reader,Most rental agencies in the U. S. don’t have a car rental age limit or cutoff for senior renters. I contacted major U. S. rental agencies including Alamo, Avis, Budget, Dollar, Hertz, National, and Payless, and found that none had a company-wide upper age limit for drivers. However, individual franchise owners may choose to impose age limits. If you’re concerned that your age may be an issue, it’s best to call the rental location directly to find out what the car rental age limits are before booking online. Outside the U. S., age limits can be a problem."

"text": "Car Rental Insurance Tip Sheet Consumer Affairs | Travelfacebooktwittergoogle+emailprint By Unknown Author Selling consumers additional insurance coverage, often unnecessarily duplicating coverage they already have, is the primary way car rental companies increase the cost of the rental. There are four different types of insurance and insurance-like coverages the companies try to sell to consumers at the rental counters: Collision Damage Waiver (CDW),Supplemental Liability Protection (SLP),Personal Accident Insurance (PAI), and Personal Effects Coverage (PEC). In most states, car rental companies are prohibited from refusing to rent you a car unless you purchase the additional insurance. The coverages are all optional. Combined, they can add up to $30 per day to the rental bill. Each coverage protects against a different risk, but your car, home, life, or health insurance policies, or your credit card, may provide all or part of the protection you need, particularly when combined with the minimum insurance the car rental company is required by law to provide as a part of every rental. Collision Damage Waiver (CDW)Also known as Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) or Physical Damage Waiver (PDW). For a fee of $9 per day for cars costing less than $30,000 or $12 per day for more expensive cars, the car rental company will waive all or part of its cost if the rental car is damaged or stolen, provided the car is not driven by an unauthorized driver, driven recklessly, or the coverage is voided for several other reasons. While this coverage may make sense for some renters, ini most states you already have this coverage for a rental vehicle as part of your primary auto insurance, unless you declined to accept it when you purchased that policy. In addition, most premium credit cards, such as gold or platinum cards, provide this coverage, with certain limitations, as a benefit of using the credit card to rent cars."

You can generally make reservations before you leave your country, either by phone or online. Speed limits: Legal speed limits are posted on the right side of the road, and are as follows: Interstates: 70 mph; four-lane highways: 65 mph; other state highways: 60 mph; business/residential districts: 30 mph; school zones: 10-20 mph.

For example, did you know that waiting until the day of to rent a car can usually cost more money and limit the type of vehicle you get? We took a look at the costs to rent a car at airports in the three largest cities in the country — New York City, Los Angeles and Chicago - using three well known car rental companies: Enterprise, Hertz and Budget Car Rental. The prices, unless mentioned, reflect the cost of booking a car online eight days in advance and having the rental for two days, from 5 p.m. Friday until 5 p.m. Sunday. Unless noted, the prices reflect the purchase of an economy car, typically the least expensive option. The prices do not reflect all of the extras available, such as GPS, penalties for driving too many miles or returning the car late.

By Jeffrey W. Cavignac, CPCU, ARM, RPLU, CRIS © 2007 Cavignac & Associates — All Rights Reserved One of the questions most frequently asked of an insurance broker is “What coverage do I need to buy when I rent a car?” Unfortunately, the answer is not an easy one. It is important to recognize that every rental contract is different. It is impossible to address every variation of the provisions that you might be confronted with at a rental counter. Each rental car agreement should be evaluated for actual terms and conditions. Recognize as well that rental car companies make a lot of money selling insurance. They want you to buy their coverage. In general, when you rent a vehicle, you are given three insurance options. Option 1 — Personal Effects Coverage Personal effects coverage is designed to cover property in the vehicle from theft or damage."

"text": "\"While drivers can get their license at age 16, it’s almost another decade before renting a car is a seamless process. But it is possible for young adults under the age of 25 to rent a car at some car rental agencies. In general, most major car rental agencies will rent to drivers 21 and up, and some will rent to even younger drivers, but these rentals come with surcharges and added restrictions. Why It’s Harder to Rent a Car Under Age 25It comes down to statistics: Drivers who are younger than 25 are significantly more likely to get into accidents than older drivers, according to National Highway Traffic Safety Administration data that's cited on rental car websites. After drivers reach the age of 25, the crash rate declines dramatically. Given the higher risk of accidents, most rental agencies tack on a “young renter\"\" fee or surcharge for those who are under age 25. In general, drivers must be at least 20 or 21 years of age to rent a car. There are some exceptions: In Michigan and New York, the minimum age to rent a car is 18 years, as mandated by the states, but the surcharges tend to be even higher for drivers in the 18- to 20-year-old age brackets. Car Rental Policies at Major Agencies Hertz will rent cars to individuals who are at least 20 years old – with some rules. The renter must have a valid driver’s license that’s been in good standing for at least a year, have a valid debit or credit card and pay a “Young Renter Daily Fee.”"

"text": "If you're looking to rent a car, depending on your needs and location, there are a number of alternatives—the traditional brick-and-mortar companies, peer-to-peer car services and car sharing programs—each with its own insurance parameters. It pays to understand your existing coverage first, and then look at your rental insurance options. No matter what company or what kind of company you're renting from, the most important step is to read and understand the car rental or car sharing agreement. Most companies clearly state what is covered as well as the supplemental coverage that can be purchased. If you don't understand, have the rental or car sharing company representative walk you through. If you're renting a car, check your own coverages first Before you enter an agreement with any type of rental service, maximize use of the insurance you're already paying for and avoid paying for duplicate insurance. If you own or lease a car and/or have homeowners insurance, call your insurer to first check the following: How much coverage you currently have on your own car – In most cases, whatever auto insurance and deductibles you have on your own car would apply when you rent a car (providing you are using the rental car for recreation and not for business). If you still have collision or comprehensive – If you dropped these coverages on your own car as a way to save money on your car insurance, you may not be covered if your rental car is stolen or damaged. Insurance rules vary by state, so it is best to check with your insurance professional for the specifics of your policy. If you are covered for administrative fees, loss of use or towing charges – Check to see whether your insurance company pays for—or provides a rider for—additional fees."

Besides the obvious matter of child safety, the fines for failing to observe these laws are steep and will take a chunk out of your vacation budget!

Let us know if you're either in town or coming to town and we'll deliver a carseat rental your way!From the York, Maine, Police Department's Facebook page: Everyone should know by now that everyone needs to be “properly” secured in a seatbelt. That means the shoulder strap must go over your shoulder. If the strap is behind your back or under your arm you are not “properly” secured in a seatbelt and can be fined. Other questions we are asked is about children and when can they ride in the front seat and when can they be out of a booster seat. When can my child ride in the front seat?

Most towns and cities were built before the general availability of the automobile and thus city centers tend to be unwieldy for cars, especially large ones. The most scenic roads in mountain areas also tend to be winding and narrow. Keep this in mind when renting: large cars can be very unwieldy. In cities, it often makes sense to just park and then use public transportation. Roads are classified into the following categories: A xxx: autoroute (Motorway/freeway) (red number sign)N xxx: national road (red number sign; sometimes referred to as RN xx)D xxx: departmental road (yellow number sign; sometimes referred to as RD xx or CD xx)There also are municipal (white number sign) and forestry roads (green number sign). Note that though major map brands also use a red/yellow/white chart for roads, it has a different meaning: red means major roads, yellow means intermediate roads, and white means minor roads. A departmental road may be major, for instance. Note that \"\"Routes Départementales\"\" are strictly that: each Département has its own D1, D2, etc., and D-road numbers change at Département boundaries."

"text": "\"Credit Cards · Credit Card News · Most rental car companies accept debit cards, survey finds Most rental car companies accept debit cards, survey finds But expect to face extra restrictions, conditions By Amy Buttell Crane | Published: July 9, 2009With credit card companies canceling accounts and slashing credit limits, using a credit card to rent a car this summer may not be an option. While it isn't as easy to rent a car without a credit card as it is with one, it is possible, a survey conducted by Creditcards.com reveals. Just four of the 45 rental car agency locations contacted in the telephone survey said they refused, under any circumstances, to allow consumers to rent a car rentals with a debit card. The other 41 locations permitted customers to use a debit card to rent a car -- however, all but one of those locations required users to meet at least one extra qualification requirement in order to do so. For example, 24 locations require an additional deposit, and 10 mandate a credit check. ( See summary of debit card policies at car rental agencies . ) The Credit Cards.com telephone survey included 45 locations from nine major rental car companies: Alamo, Avis, Budget, Enterprise, E-Z Rent-A-Car, Hertz, National, Rent-A-Wreck and Thrifty. Credit Cards.com called five different locations at airport and nonairport locations throughout the country -- ranging from Los Angeles and Chicago to Erie, Pa., and Wayne, Mich. -- asking whether the use of debit cards was allowed and what restrictions were placed on that use if they were allowed at that location. Among the nine rental car companies surveyed, some were consistent in their policies, while others were all over the map. Because many rental car company outlets are operated by franchisees who have a certain amount of control over how they do business, debit card policies vary by location. ("

But some states have their own regulations that affect the minimum age to rent and applicable fees. Let’s discover the minimum age to rent a car in one of America’s most popular destinations: California. In this article, we’ll provide everything you need to know before booking you a rental car in California. Whether you’re bound for San Diego, San Francisco, or anywhere in between, here’s what you need to know. What Is the Minimum Age to Rent a Car in California? California has not set a minimum rental age in the California Civil Code, so California leaves it to the companies. So if a rental car company will rent to you — California is okay with it. This is great because many rental car companies rent to drivers as young as 18. So asking how old to rent a car a car in California is the same as asking how old to rent a car anywhere in the US."

Definition Tax Credits, such as the tax credit for the Elderly and Disabled, are credits applied to the taxes you owe. For instance, if you owe $3,000 in taxes and you have a credit for $500, then you only have to pay $2,500. The Tax Credit for the Elderly and Disabled is a credit for persons over 65 years of age or persons under 65 and disabled. Discussion While a tax credit is not a source of new funds or specifically funding for eldercare, it represents additional disposable income and can be used to reduce the overall cost of caring for an aging loved one. When combined with other options, it might make the difference between affording home care or assisted living or not having that option. This credit is applied to a tax filer’s return, therefore an aging parent who is claimed as a dependent on someone else’s tax return is not eligible. Elderly and Disabled Tax Credit vs. Dependent Care Credit For some families, depending on their individual tax situation, it may be advantageous to forego the Elderly and Disabled Tax Credit and have the elderly individual claimed as a dependent on the tax return of an adult child. This would allow the adult child to use the Dependent Care Credit. Worth noting though is that the Dependent Care Credit cannot be used for persons who reside in skilled nursing facilities or assisted living residences."

FS-2015-4, January 2015The Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) is a financial boost for people working hard to make ends meet. Millions of workers may qualify for the first time this year due to changes in their marital, parental or financial status. The IRS urges workers who work for someone else or own or run their own business or farm and earned $52,427 or less in 2014 to see if they qualify by using the EITC Assistant on IRS.gov. To get the EITC, workers need to file a return and specifically claim the credit even if they aren’t required to file. The EITC is a refundable tax credit. This means workers may get money back, even if they have no tax withheld. Nationwide last year almost 28 million eligible individuals and families received more than $66 billion in EITC. The IRS encourages all those who earned less than $53,000 to use the EITC Assistant on IRS.gov even if workers have someone else prepare their tax return. The EITC is complex and many special rules apply and taxpayers want to make sure they have all the information needed to claim the credit."

The Center for American Progress notes that in 2010 fewer than 30 percent of children had a stay-at-home parent, compared with more than half in 1975. Although child care expenses aren't tax-deductible, you can recoup some of some of the costs if you qualify for the Child and Dependent Care Credit. Child and Dependent Care Credit The Child and Dependent Care Credit can give you up to $1,050 back on your taxes for one qualifying child and up to $2,100 for two or more children. As with all tax credits, this amount is subtracted directly from your tax bill. The credit may be claimed only for child care expenses that you pay in order to go to work or look for a job. If you are married and file a joint return, both spouses must have earned income. The income requirement is waived if you or your spouse is a full-time student for five months or more during the year or if one spouse is incapacitated Eligibility In order to claim a child and get money for child care back on your taxes, the child must be under age 13 at the time the expenses are paid.

"text": "Your child can be claimed as a dependent from the date of birth. Any child you're raising can be an income tax deduction. However, the Internal Revenue Service does have rules about this, including age restrictions. For starters, you have to get a Social Security number from the Social Security Administration for any child before she can be claimed. After that, you have to be able to prove the child's age and that you have the right to claim her as a dependent. Qualifying Age Usually, a child must be less than 19 years old during the entire year to be claimed as a dependent. Each dependent child entitles you to take $3,800 off of your gross income. You can also claim an additional withholding allowance for each child on your W-4 form at work. That reduces the amount of tax withheld so you immediately get the benefit of the tax deduction. If you've got a newborn, the baby qualifies immediately as a dependent."

Levy, CPAThe Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), known as OBAMACARE, has some significant implications for special needs families. While we are just beginning to see how far reaching this act is, I am going to limit my remarks to how this act specifically affects tax deductibility of medical expenses typically incurred by families with special needs. If you need assistance with understanding or accessing the insurance marketplace, I suggest you speak with a knowledgeable insurance agent. This article supersedes a similar article I wrote in February of 2011. Changes due to OBAMACARE are so noted. The information in this article is educational in nature and is not to be considered tax advice. Please contact a qualified tax professional to discuss how these concepts may or may not apply to your personal situation. Medical Expense Deductions The IRS code allows medical deductions per section 213:“The term `medical care,' as used in this subsection, shall include amounts paid for the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease, or for the purpose of affecting any structure or function of the body. ”This is a pretty broad definition of medical care. The nature of the IRS code is that it is refined by both revenue rulings and tax court cases, such that the phrase ‘any structure or function of the body’ includes both mental and physical functions."

"text": "Monkey Business Images/Shutterstock.com Workers who don’t earn much money or who lost a job last year may benefit from the earned income tax credit, or EITC. With this tax break, qualified individuals can get a portion of the taxes they paid reimbursed. It even can produce a tax refund for eligible filers who had no tax liability. Most tax credits are nonrefundable, meaning they simply zero out a tax bill. For example, you owe $800 and have a $1,000 credit. That credit will erase your $800 bill, but you lose the extra $200. But the EITC is a refundable credit, so it will allow you to get that extra $200 back as a refund from the IRS. Be warned, however, that the credit is rather complicated, and because eligible taxpayers usually don’t have much cash to spare, they generally cannot afford professional help in filing for it. The IRS has an online program, the EITC Assistant, to help these filers. Who qualifies?"

S. law applies in U. S. territorial waters, which extend 12 nautical miles from the shore. As the legal drinking age in the United States is 21, no cruise line permits passengers under 21 to drink while in U. S. territorial waters. In international waters, however, as well as those claimed by countries with lower drinking ages, some cruise lines allow passengers 18 and over to drink. Parental Permission Azamara (azamaraclubcruises.com), Celebrity (celebritycruises.com) and Norwegian (ncl.com) allow guests 18 through 20 to drink with parental permission. The Azamara and Celebrity policies apply only to sailings that originate in Europe, Australia or South America, while Norwegian’s policy is in effect whenever the ship is in international waters except on Alaska and Hawaii itineraries. On all three lines, your parent or guardian must be on the ship with you and must appear in person to sign the waiver. Location-Based Policies Royal Caribbean (royalcaribbean.com), Costa (costacruise.com), Cunard (cunard.com) and MSC (msccruises.com) base their policies on local laws. Parental permission is not required for 18- through 20-year-olds to drink. Royal Caribbean’s drinking age is 18 for cruises that originate in Asia, Australia, New Zealand, Europe and South America, but the drinking age is always 21 on the company’s private islands. Costa’s drinking age is 18 for all sailings that depart from a non-United States port."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Not to be confused with cruiser. Majesty of the Seas in Nassau, Bahamas A cruise ship or cruise liner is a passenger ship used for pleasure voyages, when the voyage itself, the ship's amenities, and sometimes the different destinations along the way (i.e., ports of call), are part of the experience. Transportation is not the only purpose of cruising, particularly on cruises that return passengers to their originating port (known as \"\"closed-loop cruises\"\"). On \"\"cruises to nowhere\"\" or \"\"nowhere voyages\"\", the ship makes 2–3 night round trips without any ports of call. [ 1]In contrast, dedicated transport oriented ocean liners do \"\"line voyages\"\" and typically transport passengers from one point to another, rather than on round trips. Traditionally, a liner for the transoceanic trade will be built to a higher standard than a typical cruise ship, including higher freeboard and stronger plating to withstand rough seas and adverse conditions encountered in the open ocean, such as the North Atlantic. Ocean liners also usually have larger capacities for fuel, food, and other stores for consumption on long voyages, compared to dedicated cruise ships, but few are still in existence, such as the preserved liners and Queen Mary 2, which makes scheduled North Atlantic voyages. Although often luxurious, ocean liners had characteristics that made them unsuitable for cruising, such as high fuel consumption, deep draughts that prevented their entering shallow ports, enclosed weatherproof decks that were not appropriate for tropical weather, and cabins designed to maximize passenger numbers rather than comfort (such as a high proportion of windowless suites). The gradual evolution of passenger ship design from ocean liners to cruise ships has seen passenger cabins shifted from inside the hull to the superstructure with private verandas. The modern cruise ships, while sacrificing some qualities of seaworthiness, have added amenities to cater to water tourists, and recent vessels have been described as \"\"balcony-laden floating condominiums\"\" [ citation needed]. Cruise ships in Tallinn Passenger Port of Tallinn, Estonia - a popular tourist destination The distinction between ocean liners and cruise ships has blurred, particularly with respect to deployment, although differences in construction remain."

Find out which cruise lines offer the best deals – and on which it is better to stick to water. Cruise lines charge for a variety of extras, so beware of the hidden cost of a drink By Jane Archer10:12AM BST 13 Oct 2011First-time cruisers are invariably shocked to find their cruise deals do not include (with a few notable exceptions) the price of drinks. This is because cruise lines misleadingly advertise prices as all-inclusive, a term associated with land-based resorts that really do include everything in the price, including soft and alcoholic beverages. Unfortunately in the cruising world it usually only means accommodation, food and entertainment. There are a few exceptions, including Seabourn Cruises, Regent Seven Seas Cruises and Silversea (see table, below), which include soft and alcoholic drinks in the cruise price, and Azamara, which includes wine at lunch and dinner. Not only is it a shock to find out you have to pay for drinks on your cruise, but the price some cruise lines charge is shocking when you consider they are buying in bulk at duty- and tax-free prices.

The price of a glass of house wine varies just as much, from Saga’s £3 to Crystal’s $8.50 (£5.36). And the price difference doesn’t stop there, as the American cruise lines add a mandatory 15 per cent gratuity [add link] to bar bills, even if you fetch it yourself from the bar."

The majority of people love them, but some people hate them. Cruising makes it easy to visit several places in a single trip without the need to repack your belongings and sit in a car/train/bus/plane to travel to each one; your hotel room comes along with you, and even provides the transportation. Additionally, seeing several islands or cities in a region can help you decide if and where you'd want to visit later for a longer time. Typical itineraries also limit the time you can spend in each place, usually just a short day of activities or sightseeing. They may also include one or more days at sea: paradise if you enjoy a relaxing day by the pool, but frustrating if you prefer more active and open exploration. Nonetheless, the benefits far outweigh the drawbacks for enough people to support a growing industry. Today you can visit every continent on earth, including Antarctica, by cruise ship. The most exotic itineraries, such as the Galapagos Islands, are best visited by small expedition vessels. While these cruises are expensive, you'll be traveling with expert guides and excursions are usually included."

The drinking age on NCL's ships is 21 for most itineraries; it's 18 for sailings that operate round trip from European or Australian ports (though for beer and wine only). However, passengers who are 18 to 20 years of age can purchase and consume beer or wine on other itineraries, too, when the ship is in international waters (does not apply to Alaska or Hawaii sailings). In those instances, a parent or legal guardian must be onboard the sailing with the minor and sign a waiver form at the front desk. Can I bring booze onboard a Norwegian cruise? Bringing alcohol onboard at embarkation: Beer and liquor is not allowed -- items will be secured until disembarkation day. Wine and Champagne are permitted, but you'll have to pay a corkage fee for any that is consumed onboard in staterooms, bars or restaurants. Fees are $15 for 750ml bottles and $30 for 1,500ml. There is no limit to the number of bottles passengers can bring onboard. Boxed wine is not allowed."

"text": "Liquor and Beverage Policy Q&ALiquor and Beverage Policy - Effective July 9, 2015 For safety reasons, guests are prohibited from bringing alcoholic beverages on board with the following exception: At the beginning of the cruise during embarkation day, guests (21 years of age and older) may carry on in their hand luggage, one 750 ml bottle of sealed/unopened wine or champagne per person. A $15 USD corkage fee (a charge exacted at a restaurant for every bottle of wine served that was not bought on the premises), per 750 ml bottle, will be charged should guests wish to consume their wine or champagne in a main dining room, steakhouse or bar. Guests are also prohibited from bringing water, sodas and other non-alcoholic beverages on board that are packaged in bottles. A small quantity of non-alcoholic beverages (i.e., sparkling water, sodas, juice, milk) packaged in cans or cartons may be brought on board on embarkation day, only if carried on in guests’ hand luggage (not in checked luggage). A small quantity is considered a maximum of 12 sealed, unopened cans/cartons of 12 ounces each or less per person. Any hard liquor, beer, other forms of alcoholic beverage, and non-alcoholic beverages, outside of the exceptions referenced above, are strictly prohibited (in both carry-on and checked luggage) and such items will be confiscated and discarded and no compensation will be provided. FAQ's Q. What is the rationale behind this decision? A. Guests bringing bottled beverages on board are proving to be a source of multiple issues. The first issue is the impact on the boarding process. Bottled beverages are the most common means by which guests attempt to smuggle alcohol on board which necessitates that bottles be individually examined by security personnel."

"text": "\"Cruise Ship Drink Packages: Are They Worth It? Posted by Andrea M. Rotondo on December 26, 2013 at 8:58:33 AM EST | Post a Comment Whether you're new to cruising or readying to book a repeat voyage, you're probably contemplating whether or not to tack on an onboard beverage package. Most cruise lines—at least those that aren't all-inclusive—offer prepaid add-on drink packages. There are all-alcohol or wine-only packages, soda options, and even alternatives for unlimited specialty coffees. The benefits of drink packages can be twofold: a discount on your overall bar bill, as well as the convenience of not signing a check for every soda or glass of wine ordered. As an added bonus, the unlimited nature of the arrangement may encourage your palate to explore new flavors—after all, sampling new drinks is all the more feasible when you're not worrying that your money will go to waste if you don't like it. How to Determine If a Beverage Package is Right for You These unlimited drink packages can be a terrific value—under certain circumstances. However, many cruise lines mandate that if one person in your stateroom buys a beverage package, everyone in the stateroom has to buy one. If a couple with similar drinking habits is sharing a cabin, this may be fine, but the calculation is murkier for families or a couple with one alcohol drinker and one teetotaler. Know what you're getting in the drink package."

But that also means passengers have to do without over-the-top amenities like ice-skating rinks, high-diving acts or ziplines. For those who have never cruised before, Grand Celebration gives passengers a sense of what ocean cruising is all about. Live nightly entertainment, several pools and hot tubs, a casino and children's clubs are enough to keep passengers entertained for two nights (though it's a good thing longer cruises are not on offer). About Bahamas Paradise Cruise Line Grand Celebration316Reviews Pro Prices are low, and schedules are flexible, making them ideal for short, last-minute getaways. Con Smaller ship size means limited options for entertainment and dining. Bottom Line Casual, unpretentious, relaxing and cheerful fun for all ages and budgets. There is a constant reminder that yes, you are on vacation and the tropical cocktails are flowing. The easygoing staff keeps it real: they crack lighthearted jokes and even tease cruisers a little -- without being offensive. Cocktail waiters repeatedly make their rounds at the buffet tables touting Bahama Mamas, while pool parties, live music and drink specials set the tone for a two-night getaway to Grand Bahama Island."

Abandoned by his father, and then having lost his mother, Alistair was sent to Chantry and raised in a monastery before being recruited by Duncan into the Grey Wardens. From his training in the monastery, Alistair derives his specialization -- Templar. Which gives him a starting bonus in damage against mages, who are plentiful in the game and are a major headache during battles lasting over some 30 seconds to a whole minute, that being only a quick fight, when considering that some can and will last for over 20 minutes. His specialization grants Alistair +2 on his Magic, which in turn increases his Resistance to Magic, and +3 to his Mental Resistance, a critical bonus when playing against enemies who use mind-control spells or abilities. When first encountered, Alistair will have a low-tier Splint Mail, however, you should avoid equipping him with anything lower than Heavy Armor, with Massive Armor being the preferred choice. Since heavier armor sets drain stamina, thus limiting your use of talents, upon leveling-up, you should increase Alistair's willpower and strength with a 2-1 ratio in favor of willpower over strength. Raising dexterity over constitution is not advised, since Alistair does not have any inate bonus to dexterity and since Defense doesn't matter to a heavily armored character, investing points into dexterity might render him unable to endure punishment he should or must take. Alistair is proficient with Weapon&Shield, and is able to withstand longer barrages of arrows because of his Shield talents. It is in that section of the talent list where most of your point should go, since that section has talents like Shield Bash, Assault and Pommel which enable him to knockout or stun your enemies, and Shield Cover and Defense which allows him to take more damage while in battle."

Intelligence provided by Erika Hernandez during in the Borg Invasion of 2381 suggest the Borg have a definite point of origin from a crashed and temporally-displaced Caeliar cityship, Mantilis, in 4527 BC. However there has also been evidence of Borg activity much earlier, such as the assimilation of the Hirogen homeworld around 110,000 BC, and possible Borg- Preserver conflicts dating back to billions of years ago. ( ST - Destiny novel: Lost Souls; TOS novel: Probe; ST short story: \"\" The Hunted \"\"; TNG novel: Vendetta )To explain these contradictory accounts of Borg activity, and multiple known accounts of the creation of the Borg, some have speculated that the Borg are not merely a single evolution but, like the recurring humanoid form in the galaxy, something that has developed time and again in the galaxy. The Borg, or something akin to them, have evolved and re-evolved, possibly assimilating the latest iteration of their form as each new type of Borg is spawned. It has also been suggested Borg activity has occurred in waves; with Borg expanding into the galaxy, assimilating most of it, and then entering periods of hibernation as a new set of civilizations forms in the Borg's wake ready for future assimilation. Thus the Borg have been active in the galaxy for billions of years, but have also arisen multiple times, and coalesced into the Borg Collective known in the 24th century. ( Star Trek Magazine Issue 147: \"\"Collective Encounters\"\")Some of the known accounts of Borg origins are as follows: Forgotten light Edit One species which gave rise to the Borg originated in the Delta Quadrant, however it would seem it was in fact a colony of this race in the Alpha or Beta Quadrants that created the Borg."

Share your knowledge Article History (90)Comments (26)Many visitors to the United States go to typical tourist areas like New York, Washington DC, Orlando, Chicago, Las Vegas, San Francisco, and Los Angeles. Especially in the bigger cities, it is not necessary, nor even desirable, to have your own vehicle - although many of even the larger cities do not have good public transportation. Because of the sheer size of the United States and the American preference to the automobile over mass transit, traveling by car is a good way to get around and to see sights of the \"\"real\"\" America away from the cities. The United States has a very good system of streets and highways, including the huge Interstate highway system that includes modern limited-access expressways (also called freeways) throughout the country. Even secondary roads are a good way to travel to see more typical American lifestyle. Some possibilities for interesting car trips are: Driving in the Northeastern states of New Hampshire, Vermont, and Maine during the Fall season, when colorful foliage appears in the mountainous areas around quaint villages. Driving a portion of the famous \"\"Route 66\"\", which opened up the western states to drivers."

"text": "Are there any special requirements for driving or hiring a car in Iceland? Driving is on the right with overtaking on the left. Iceland has more than 8,000 miles of roads but less than 3,000 miles of them being paved. Therefore when you go into the interior of the country you should prepare yourself for a bumpy ride and plan which kind of vehicle you are going to rent accordingly. At certain times of year the roads in Iceland become impassable and you may want to avoid them completely, or rent a four wheel drive car. Landmannalaugar is one of those places of natural beauty where having an off road vehicle is recommended, though these get snapped up quickly and should be rented well in advance. Always take advice from locals who know the roads and take particular care when crossing fords. Having a weather report is vital as conditions can deteriorate quickly and you should plan your petrol and rest stops into your trip. It is forbidden to drive off road and on certain marked tracks. You must always give right of way to domestic animals and always take care when passing horses."

By Jeffrey W. Cavignac, CPCU, ARM, RPLU, CRIS © 2007 Cavignac & Associates — All Rights Reserved One of the questions most frequently asked of an insurance broker is “What coverage do I need to buy when I rent a car?” Unfortunately, the answer is not an easy one. It is important to recognize that every rental contract is different. It is impossible to address every variation of the provisions that you might be confronted with at a rental counter. Each rental car agreement should be evaluated for actual terms and conditions. Recognize as well that rental car companies make a lot of money selling insurance. They want you to buy their coverage. In general, when you rent a vehicle, you are given three insurance options. Option 1 — Personal Effects Coverage Personal effects coverage is designed to cover property in the vehicle from theft or damage."

"text": "Home :: Articles :: Auto Insurance :: Does Your Personal Auto Insurance Cover Rental Cars?auto Insurance Article Does Your Personal Auto Insurance Cover Rental Cars? Vacation time is at its peak and car rental agencies are busiest during the summer. Rental car agencies have had an influx of customers due to natural catastrophes that forced many auto owners into rentals. Typically, consumers focus on the debate of whether or not to buy supplemental coverage from the rental agency. But renters should also be aware of what coverage they do have from personal auto insurance or credit cards. Before you rent a car, you should know that relying on personal auto insurance or credit cards may not always be the answer and end up costing more than a lavish vacation. Although the lengthy rental agreement requiring multiple signatures can seem more like a mortgage closing than a car rental exchange, renting a car is usually fairly simple, especially for car owners with good driving histories above the company’s required age. Compared to a few years ago, many companies will rent to drivers age 21 to 24, but not without surcharges averaging around $25 daily. Spending extra on surcharges isn’t a good enough reason to bypass extra auto coverage though. Of course rental companies have this age requirement in place due to statistics showing younger drivers cause more accidents, but one accompanying advantage for renters is that by this age, renters usually use credit cards to gain extra protection, and hopefully have personal auto insurance."

Perhaps you’re moving just a few household goods and want to tow a trailer behind your car instead of renting a truck. Or maybe you have a few extra items that won’t fit in the rental truck and need a way to move them, too. The information below will help you determine if renting a U-Haul trailer is ultimately your best choice, or if a company like U-Pack ® can better suit your needs. U-Haul trailer options U-Haul offers two types of moving trailers: cargo and utility. The enclosed cargo trailer is designed for moving household goods while the open design of the utility trailer is geared towards hauling bulkier items that can be exposed to the elements. In addition to these trailers, U-Haul offers sport trailers, car tow dollies, auto transport trailers and motorcycle trailers. U-Haul trailer dimensions and weight limits If you’re moving household goods across the country, you will most likely need to rent either the cargo or utility trailer. These U-Haul trailers come in a variety of sizes and weight restrictions. Cargo trailer dimensions and weight limit: The 4’ x 8’ trailer has a 1,650 lb."

"text": "\"Top 10 Exotic Cars You Can Rent Borrow a Lamborghini for the Day Updated: 05/12/2009 - by Tori Tellem, Contributor Email Print Comments (0)A midlife crisis doesn't always come cheap. More than one person has put an expensive sports car in the driveway about halfway through the ordeal, only to find that the buyer's-remorse aftermath then creates a whole new set of crises. That's why getting your fix by simply renting a fantasy car might be the hot ticket. Beyond that, if you're thinking about plunking down close to — or more than — six figures to own or lease a particular vehicle, test-driving outside of the dealership may be a better alternative to getting stuck with a $2,500 monthly payment, only to discover your legs cramp after an hour. ( For more about renting as a prelude to making a purchasing decision, see our article Rent To Know: Using Car Rentals To Compare Cars ). Or, heck, maybe you just want to drive a conversation piece. A couple things to keep in mind: Most of the rental rates listed here are for Monday through Thursday, and usually there are pretty tight mileage limits — 100 included in the rental is the average, but after that you're looking at $1 or more ($2.49 in the case of the Lamborghini) for each additional mile. There are usually age requirements (often, you have to be at least 21 years of age to rent, but 25 isn't unheard of), and big security deposits (say, $5,000 for the Viper). And when you fuel up before returning it, by all means, be certain to choose the correct grade. One rental agency charges a $350 fee for not using premium in the vehicle."

"text": "Younger drivers may have difficulty in renting a car. Young adults, particularly those below age 25, may run into challenges when traveling through the United States. Renting a car is especially tricky, as many car rental agencies set a minimum age requirement of 25. Policies often vary from state to state and even from rental agency branch to branch, making it essential to contact the office of choice well in advance of a trip. Legal Age of Majority The legal age of majority in every state is 18. Younger travelers are not legally able to sign a contract, which would put the car rental agency at risk if the renter decided not to pay. Additionally, the rental agency could be liable if a younger renter was injured in an accident or injured someone else. Consequently, no car rental agency in the United States will rent to a driver under 18. Rental Agency Discretion As of publication, only New York and Michigan have state laws requiring car rental agencies to rent to drivers age 18 and over. All other states allow rental car companies the discretion to set their minimum age requirement, which is typically but not always 25."

"text": "Age Requirement to Rent a Car in Mexico Posted on Autos.com Editor in Car Rentals on October 7, 2013Travelers often prefer to rent a car in Mexico to travel to different points of interest or experience a comfortable overseas trip, without the hassle of transportation. Although renting a car is relatively easy, visitors to Mexico should research driving and vehicle regulations, to ensure personal safety. Since insurance coverage may not cover car rental in Mexico, it’s advisable to buy the necessary liability insurance and collision coverage required for travel. Most rental companies include liability insurance in the basic car rental rate. Additional insurance may be purchased at the customer’s discretion. Minimum Age Requirement The minimum age requirement to rent a car in Mexico is 25 years. Some rental companies accept a valid driver’s license issued by other countries and charge a surcharge to persons who fall below the required age limit. Since driving and road conditions vary greatly in comparison to North America, visitors should exert caution while driving at night and passing large trucks. Although US driver’s licenses are valid in Mexico, travelers from other countries may prefer to obtain an International Driving Permit (IDP). The IDP is accepted by more than 150 countries worldwide and when used appropriately, serves as a document for identification."

Car Rental Jargon Collision Damage Waiver (CDW)Collision Damage Waiver (CDW), in states that allow it, is an optional charge that is billed per day. Although many in the car rental industry call it \"\"collision damage\"\" coverage, it's not technically collision insurance. Rather, it is an agreement that the rental car company, in our case Rent-A-Wreck, will pay for damages to your rented vehicle. By declining the waiver, you accept responsibility for any damages. However, under CDW, the company will not pay for bodily injuries or damages to your personal property."

"text": "Car Rental Insurance Tip Sheet Consumer Affairs | Travelfacebooktwittergoogle+emailprint By Unknown Author Selling consumers additional insurance coverage, often unnecessarily duplicating coverage they already have, is the primary way car rental companies increase the cost of the rental. There are four different types of insurance and insurance-like coverages the companies try to sell to consumers at the rental counters: Collision Damage Waiver (CDW),Supplemental Liability Protection (SLP),Personal Accident Insurance (PAI), and Personal Effects Coverage (PEC). In most states, car rental companies are prohibited from refusing to rent you a car unless you purchase the additional insurance. The coverages are all optional. Combined, they can add up to $30 per day to the rental bill. Each coverage protects against a different risk, but your car, home, life, or health insurance policies, or your credit card, may provide all or part of the protection you need, particularly when combined with the minimum insurance the car rental company is required by law to provide as a part of every rental. Collision Damage Waiver (CDW)Also known as Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) or Physical Damage Waiver (PDW). For a fee of $9 per day for cars costing less than $30,000 or $12 per day for more expensive cars, the car rental company will waive all or part of its cost if the rental car is damaged or stolen, provided the car is not driven by an unauthorized driver, driven recklessly, or the coverage is voided for several other reasons. While this coverage may make sense for some renters, ini most states you already have this coverage for a rental vehicle as part of your primary auto insurance, unless you declined to accept it when you purchased that policy. In addition, most premium credit cards, such as gold or platinum cards, provide this coverage, with certain limitations, as a benefit of using the credit card to rent cars."

"text": "Rental cars can come with unlimited miles -- at a price. Renting a car seems simple enough, but most rental companies unnecessarily complicate the process. Whether you are visiting a new city, are heading out on a road trip or just need a ride for the day, car rentals can vary drastically, both by type of rental and by company. When making decisions about your rental, you'll have to choose the size and type of vehicle, a manual or automatic transmission, whether or not to get additional insurance and sometimes whether to get limited or unlimited mileage. Fortunately, with a little advance planning, that last option is easy to figure out. Limited Miles vs. Unlimited Miles Each car rental company has an individual policy when it comes to mileage limitations. These limitations are also affected by whether the driver is renting the car in a U. S. state or in a foreign country. Most major companies, such as Hertz and Enterprise, allow unlimited mileage within a specific state when traveling domestically. Driving a car from one state to another usually incurs a per-mile charge, so it's best to check into the specific rules ahead of time, especially when heading out on a cross-country journey. Some companies restrict the miles on weekends."

The list of companies that will rent to younger drivers includes: ACE Rent a Car, E-Z Rent-A-Car, Fox Rent A Car, Getaround, Hertz Rent a Car, Rent-A-Wreck, U-Save Car and Truck Rental, and Zipcar. Be prepared to pay a daily surcharge and, in some cases, vehicle selection may be limited. Exceptions to the Usual Age Restrictions Thanks to state laws regulating rental car companies, if you’re renting in Michigan or New York state, you can rent a car from any company as long as you are at least 18. This applies to companies in Michigan or New York, not residents of New York or Michigan who are renting elsewhere. If you have a military ID and are traveling on government business, you can generally rent from any company at 18. Policies vary by company regarding under-25 military personnel renting for leisure travel. If the company you work for has a special agreement with a rental car company, you can typically rent under age 21. You can’t get around the age requirement by having someone over 21 rent a car and adding the younger driver as an additional driver. Additional drivers must meet all the same requirements as the person renting the car."

"text": "Cars & Transportation Other - Cars & Transportation How much does Enterprise Rent-a-car charge per day for an underage (21-24) driver? Follow Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: It varies between $0-15 per day. A location I rented from in Las Vegas charged no fee, while the lowest fee I could find near me was $10. Wherever you're renting from, look at all the locations to see which has the lowest fee. Even $15 is still lower than the $25 most other national chains charge. ( Note: it may be higher in New York, where state law requires that all persons aged 18 and higher must be able to rent a car. As a result, insurance costs are higher there.) To lower your cost even further, go to entertainment.com and get an Entertainment book, which has coupons for up to 20% off daily and weekly rentals, regardless of age. Avoid airport locations, which generally have more taxes and higher fees. Also, if you have a Visa credit card (not check card), decline the collision/damage waiver (CDW) when you rent the car."

So you will not be able to rent a car from anyone. That's not really true. Car rental companies don't really have a system to check the status of your driving record. Although yes it is illegal, its not impossible to get car on suspended license. Example: My mother rented car in TX and was pulled over and officer told her her license was suspended from VA.

"text": "Required Age to Rent a Car Based on Car Rental Company Posted on Autos.com Editor in Car Rentals on October 7, 2013In order to rent a car from one of the various large rental car companies, not only must you possess a valid drivers license and have a major credit card, but you must meet an age requirement as well. These differ slightly from company to company, but they all have similar conditions. When you rent a car, you have the option of purchasing different levels of insurance as well, but that may not be adequate for serious accidents or bodily injury. Thus, being properly insured is another requirement. Age Requirements for Rental Car Companies For nearly every major company, the minimum age for renting a car is 25. This, however, is subject to some exceptions if you meet some conditions or agree on a surcharge. The following is a breakdown of the age requirements and exceptions for the major car rental companies. Budget This company has a minimum age of 25, but it will rent to drivers as young as 18 with a $52 per day surcharge in some states. At age 21 that rate drops to $35 per day. For corporate drivers, the minimum age is 21."

As a result of the 2005 Base Realignment and Closure Commission (BRAC) Fort Bragg was slated to absorb Army units and assets from several other locations. In 2011, the already massive base absorbed the Forces Command (FORSCOM) and US Army Reserve Command (USARC) from Fort Mc Pherson in Georgia, increasing the base’s population by 25,000. This addition made Fort Bragg the single largest US Army installation and command in the United States capable of providing sustained combat and support forces for response anywhere in the world. Fort Bragg is known throughout the Army as the training ground for well-known units such as the US Army Special Operations, Airborne Corps and the US Army Golden Knights Parachute Team. Notable landmarks in the area near Fort Bragg are The Climbing Place in Fayetteville, Cape Fear Botanical Gardens and Myrtle Beach South Carolina. History Established as an Army artillery training ground in 1918, Camp Bragg was intended to be a training school for artillery soldiers heading to World War I front lines in Europe. Camp Bragg derived its namesake in honor of the Civil War Confederate General Braxton Bragg. Camp Bragg was renamed to Fort Bragg in 1922 as its size and role in the US Army expanded. Despite its massive size now, Fort Bragg has narrowly skirted closure several times over the last century."

My Response: The cost to rent a car seat will vary by car rental company, and may depend on the city that you rent in and the length of the rental. I have no idea where you want to rent, but to try and get some sort of information, I checked the price of a car seat for a one day rental from Boston, Ft Lauderdale and Los Angeles for Alamo, Avis, Budget, Dollar, Hertz, National, Dollar, Enterprise and Thrifty. Without knowing the rental location or length, I can only provide an average price. Cost will be determined by the rental location and there may or may not be a maximum charge. Note: Prices may change without notice... this information was gathered in February 2014. For exact current figures, check the cost to rent a car seat directly with your car rental company of choice, for the specific location of your choice. Here's what I was able to determine Note that company links open in new windows: Alamo The average cost to rent a car seat is $9.99 per day each. Alamo listed a $60.00 maximum charge per rental per month (for each car seat)."

"text": "Car Rental Additional Driver Fees Published on November 21, 2016 by Jonathan Categories: Car Rental Tips One often-overlooked extra when renting a car is a fee for additional drivers on a car rental contract. Whether you plan on sharing the driving, or you're just looking to have the flexibility for a spouse or fellow traveler to get behind the wheel if needed, adding another driver your rental contract can be quite convenient. However, at $10 and up per day, these charges can add up quickly. Policies and fees vary greatly by company, location and situation though, so it's important to educate yourself beforehand to ensure you don't end up overpaying. Before we go any further, we'd be remiss if we didn't mention that it's essential to add any additional drivers to your rental contract. If you skip this step, and a driver other than the one whose name is on the rental contract gets into an accident, you could be in for a rude awakening. Any insurance or other damage waiver that you may have had in place could be voided for failing to officially list the other driver, so be forewarned. It's not worth taking the chance and being socked with a huge bill for totaling a car after the insurance company refuses to pay. Location, Location, Location If you rent cars only in the state of California, you can probably stop reading now since we have some great news for you. There are no additional driver fees in California at all by law."

Not only can travelers encounter these limits by country, they also can vary from company to company. Renters in the U. S. face no maximum age restrictions. First, the overseas picture.

To find the best values around, MONEY ranked the 11 largest rental car chains based on our calculation of average daily rates, plus customer satisfaction ratings for reservations, pickup and return processes, and overall costs and fees. ( Read all of MONEY’s Best in Travel 2017 . ) Platinum: Alamo Car rentals can cause a lot of headaches, but Alamo alleviates many of the pain points. The ease of the return process in particular earned kudos from consumers, according to J. D. Power’s 2016 ranking. Alamo performs well among cost-conscious younger travelers, says J. D. Power’s Richard Garlick. Prices for a budget or compact car run about $42 a day, 7% less than average. The company is an especially good choice if you’re planning to share the driving with friends: Alamo charges $12 a day for a second driver, less than most of its rivals. Gold: Enterprise Enterprise takes the top spot for service, but its base price of $47 a day is not as competitive as that of its sister company, Alamo. Yet Enterprise, which has 5,800 U.

"text": "Print Company pension plans In general, if you’re a member of a company pension plan, your RRSP contribution room is reduced by your pension adjustment (PA). As noted in topic 56, this adjustment is intended to represent the present value of the pension benefits you earned for the previous year in your registered pension plan (RPP) or deferred profit sharing plan (DPSP). There are two main types of RPPs: defined benefit plans, in which pension benefits are specified in the plan, and money purchase (or defined contribution) plans, in which pension benefits are based on combined employer and employee contributions, plus earnings in the plan. The benefits you earn in your defined benefit pension plan, or total contributions to a money purchase plan, determine how much you can also contribute to your RRSP (see topic 56 ). Defined benefit plans As a member of a defined benefit plan, you’re entitled to deduct 100% of all required contributions for current or post-1989 past service. You’re also entitled to deduct a maximum of $3,500 per year for past service contributions for service prior to 1990 while you were not a contributor to a pension plan. This deduction is subject to an overall limit of $3,500 multiplied by the number of years of pre-1990 service bought back. This is in addition to any deduction for post-1989 or current service. For years of pre-1990 service during which you were a contributor to the plan, the annual deduction is limited to $3,500 less the amount of other contributions deducted in the current year. This includes amounts for the current year, post-1989 past service, and pre-1990 past service while you were not a contributor."

This year as we approach the end of tax season, I offer you my tax planning tips. Investing in registered retirement savings plans. The RRSP is still one of the best tax savings vehicles available to Canadians. The RRSP is a tax deduction where the savings is equally to your personal marginal tax rate. Watch investment income outside the RRSPs. If you have investments both inside and outside the RRSP, consider tax efficiency of investment income. You should consider putting funds inside that generate interest and other income like GICs, money market funds or bond investments inside your RRSP. In your non-registered portfolio, you should invest in things that have investments that generate tax preferred sources of income like capital gains or dividends."

You might therefore be surprised to learn that even the relatively wealthy can re-organize their finances to qualify for GIS benefits Fotolia Fred Vettese November 11, 2014 3:10 PM ESTFiled under Personal Finance TFSAComment Facebook Twitter Reddit Email More If you have above-average income and significant assets, you probably think the Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS) is not meant for you. The GIS is an income-tested pension program that, together with Old Age Security (OAS), helps low-income seniors avoid poverty. You might therefore be surprised to learn that even the relatively wealthy can re-organize their finances to qualify for GIS benefits, at least until they reach age 70.

Almost every source of income counts for purposes of calculating this reduction, with the major exception being OAS pension. The Guaranteed Income Supplement therefore diminishes as non-OAS income rises and, in the case of married couples, stops altogether once combined income exceeds $22,560. Or does it? Most of us would agree that $22,560 plus OAS pension is not a lot to live on, especially if we want to enjoy an active life. Below, I will show how we can spend considerably more than that and still receive most, if not all, of the maximum GIS entitlement."

"text": "\"Definition of Preferred Beneficiary Preferred Beneficiary Used in older contracts to confer the same rights as an irrevocable beneficiary. Applied to family members. Related Terms: Beneficiary This is the person who benefits from the terms of a trust, a will, an RRSP, a RRIF, a LIF, an annuity or a life insurance policy. In relation to RRSP's, RRIF's, LIF's, Annuities and of course life insurance, if the beneficiary is a spouse, parent, offspring or grand-child, they are considered to be a preferred beneficiary. If the insured has named a preferred beneficiary, the death benefit is invariably protected from creditors. There have been some court challenges of this right of protection but so far they have been unsuccessful. See \"\"Creditor Protection\"\" below. A beneficiary under the age of 18 must be represented by an individual guardian over the age of 18 or a public official who represents minors generally. A policy owner may, in the designation of a beneficiary, appoint someone to act as trustee for a minor. Death benefits are not subject to income taxes."

"text": "Tax-Free Savings Account Building Wealth Tax-Free The Tax-Free Savings Account allows Canadian residents, 18 years of age and older, to save after-tax income and pay no further taxes on those funds or their investment returns. In addition to the annual $5,500 maximum, unused contributions from prior years can be carried over and past withdrawals can be re-contributed in the following year. Annual contribution limits: Year (s) Amount2009-2012 $5,0002013-2014 $5,5002015 $10,0002016 $5,500Unlike an RRSP, there is no upfront tax deduction with a TFSA, but neither are the proceeds taxed when they are withdrawn. This means interest compounds tax-free, as do capital gains and dividends generated by mutual funds and stocks. Plus, any withdrawal you make frees up a comparable amount of new contribution room the following year – the TFSA offers full flexibility to withdraw and re-contribute. How Do I Know It’s Right for Me? The TFSA is attractive for any person saving for any goal, from automobiles to vacations to home renovations. And just as RRSP withdrawals have become a key tool for first-time home buyers, the TFSA offers a unique advantage for people entering the housing market – a TFSA withdrawal doesn’t have to be repaid. It will also be attractive to low-income seniors, since tax-free TFSA withdrawals will not be added to income and will not trigger reductions in Old Age Security benefits or the Guaranteed Income Supplement. There is no maximum age limit for contributing to a TFSA and unused contribution room can be carried forward indefinitely."

Machine Headz / E+ / Getty Imagesby Susan Munroe Updated March 08, 2017A Canadian T4RSP tax slip, or Statement of RRSP Income, is prepared and issued by a financial institution to tell you and the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) how much money you withdrew from or received out of your RRSPs for a given tax year and how much tax was deducted. A T4RSP slip also shows the amount withdrawn from an RRSP under the Home Buyers Plan and for the Lifelong Learning Plan. Money transferred from an RRSP to a spouse or partner under a court order or written agreement in a marriage or partnership breakdown is also shown on a T4RSP. Residents of Quebec receive a Relevé 2 (RL-2). Deadline for T4RSP Tax Slips T4RSP tax slips must be issued by the last day of February the year after the calendar year to which the T4RSP tax slips apply.

For more information on what is included in each box on the T4RSP tax slip and how to deal with it when filing your income tax return, click on the box number in the pull-down menu or click on the box on the sample T4RSP tax slip. Filing T4RSP Tax Slips With Your Income Tax Return When you file a paper income tax return, include copies of each of the T4RSP tax slips you receive. If you file your income tax return using NETFILE or EFILE, keep copies of your T4RSP tax slips with your records for six years in case the CRA asks to see them."

Basically 60 days into the new year. There is an abundance of choice out there for RRSP accounts, but here is a review of the best online brokers for RRSPs . If you’re not sure if RRSPs are right for you, check out my article on “ Who Should Contribute to an RRSP? “. Also note that your RRSP contribution limit should be on last years Notice of Assessment (NOA) or 18% of your last years earned income up to a maximum contribution of $26,010 (for 2017 tax year). If you don’t have your NOA, then you can call Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) and they will determine your limit after a bunch of security questions. CRA also has a free online service that enables you to access your RRSP contribution limit information online. Remember that unused contribution room from previous years can be carried forward. Here are the RRSP contribution limits for other tax years:2014 – $24,2702015 – $24,9302016 – $25,3702017 – $26,010If you want to calculate your tax savings based on your RRSP contribution, here is what you do: Determine your marginal tax rate based on your income and province. For me personally, my marginal tax rate is: 39.3% (try taxtips for your tax rate)Multiply your total contribution for the year by your marginal tax rate and voila, you will have your approximate RRSP tax refund."

The accounts are designed to be held until retirement, but many taxpayers need their money earlier to cover expenses, such as financing the purchase of a home or automobile. Contributions and deductions to your RRSP are limited each year. You may carry over your unused contributions into a future tax year. Income Tax Early withdrawal eliminates the tax advantages of an RRSP. Withdrawals are taxable in the year you withdraw. Interest, dividends and capital gains on investment appreciation also become taxable as soon as they are withdrawn. It is not usually a problem if you wait until retirement to begin taking your withdrawals because you will be in a lower tax bracket at that point in your life. However, it can create a significant tax liability if you withdraw funds during the prime earning years of your career."

"text": "What is an RRSP? A registered retirement savings plan (RRSP) is a personal savings account that has special tax advantages. RRSPs can hold a variety of qualifying investments, including treasury bills, guaranteed interest products, mutual funds, segregated fund contracts, bonds and equities. As well, some types of investment contracts, such as registered guaranteed investment fund contracts, are themselves RRSPs. An RRSP is such a powerful savings vehicle because your contributions are tax deductible, and the taxes on any investment growth are deferred until you take your money out. Tax-deductible contributions mean you'll have more of your income available for your current needs, even while you're saving for the future. And tax-deferred investment growth (interest, dividends, capital gains) keeps more of your money working for you. When you withdraw money from your RRSP, it is taxed at your tax rate at the time you take it out. But if you're like most people, you'll be retired when you start to take withdrawals, so your tax rate will likely be lower than when you were employed, and you'll be able to keep more of your hard-earned money. You should consider an RRSP if: You want to save money for retirement and be able to deduct your contributions from this year's income You're looking to reinvest your tax savings You want to use your tax savings to pay down non-tax-deductible debt, like your mortgage Types of RRSPs: Individual RRSPs This is an RRSP registered in your own name, and to which only you contribute."

The Income Tax Act, however, contains several income attribution rules that, in many cases, will override the income splitting efforts of taxpayers by extracting tax that otherwise was payable. Attribution rules apply to several situations, including: Income and losses from property transferred to a spouse or minor family member Capital gains/losses realized on property transferred to a spouse Transfers of property to a trust.

"text": "How much withholding tax will my RRSP administrator deduct from my withdrawal? The amount of withholding income tax is based upon the size of your withdrawal. This is so that you are paying the CRA a level of tax that is proportional to the amount withdrawn and included as taxable income in your current income tax return. You should never assume that the amount of withholding tax deducted from your withdrawal is sufficient to cover the resulting income tax owing. The withholding deducted may not be sufficient to cover the tax you owe at your income tax bracket. You may have to pay additional income tax when you complete and file your annual income tax return. Below is a reference chart with the withdrawal thresholds and the required level of withholding tax to be deducted: Amount Withdrawn CRA Withholding Tax Deducted Combined CRA & Quebec Withholding Tax Up to $5,00010% Withholding Tax21% Withholding Tax$5,000 to $15,00020% Withholding Tax26% Withholding Tax Amounts over $15,00030% Withholding Tax31% Withholding Tax Note for Quebec Residents: The provincial withholding rate is 16% added to the CRA withholding tax of 5%, 10% and 15% on withdrawals of under $5,000, $5,000 to $15,000 and over $15,000, respectively. In addition, Quebec withholding tax only applies to single withdrawals from an RRSP. If you receive regular periodic payments (i.e. monthly), they are not subject to withholding tax.

Contributions can be made to a spousal RRSP up to and including the year that the spouse or common-law partner turns 71 years of age. This maximum age was increased from 69 to 71 by the 2007 Federal budget , giving people an additional two years to contribute. RRSP contribution room is based on \"\"earned income\"\". Generally, earned income includes a taxpayer's income (earned while the taxpayer was resident in Canada) from the following:income from office or employment reported on a T4 slip (line 101 of the tax return)other employment income (line 104) - this includes foreign employment income, which must be reported in Canadian dollars . Employment income on a US W-2 slip may have been reduced by contributions to a \"\"401 (k), 457 or 403 (b) plan, US Medicare and Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA)\"\". These amounts must be added to foreign employment income on line 104. However, based on the Fifth Protocol to the Canada - U. S. Income Tax Treaty (Article XVIII), starting with the 2009 tax year, these amounts may be deductible on line 207 of your tax return.

Here are some of the rules and regulations for RRSPs so you can make good RRSP decisions this year. Who is eligible to buy RRSPs? Anyone who has earned income, has a social insurance number and has filed a tax return can contribute to an RRSP up until December 31 of the year they turn 71. After this age if you continue to have earned income, you can contribute to a Spousal RRSP up until December 31 of the year your spouse turns 71.

Pension Adjustment (PA) represents the value of any pension benefits accruing from participation in a registered pension plan or deferred profit sharing plan. Notes Earned income For most people, earned income for RRSP purposes is the amount in box 14 of their T4 slips. Earned income also includes self-employed net income, CPP/QPP disability payments and net rental income. Income sources that do not qualify as earned income include investment income, pensions (including DPSP, RRIF, OAS, and CPP/QPP income), retiring allowances, death benefits, taxable capital gains and limited-partnership income."

Investment income, including capital gains and dividends, earned in a TFSA is not taxed in most cases, even when withdrawn. Contributions to a TFSA are not deductible for income tax purposes, unlike contributions to a Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP). Despite the name, a TFSA does not have to be a cash savings account.

Don’t forget about the people around you – your family! Spouses, children, aging parents – they’re all sources of potential tax deductions that can pump up your refund. Here are some of the most common family-related deductions that you may be able to take: Your Spouse The spouse or common-law partner amount: If you supported your spouse or common-law partner at any time during the year and his or her net income was less than $11,038, you can claim this amount (minus his or her income). If you’re also claiming the Family caregiver amount, his or her income must be less than $13,078. Support payments: Did you make support payments to your current or a former spouse or common-law partner during the past tax year? If so, you can claim the deductible portions of the support you paid on your tax return. Spousal RRSP deduction: As long as you have enough contribution room (see your Notice of Assessment from last year for your RRSP deduction limit), you can contribute to a spousal RRSP in lieu of or in addition to your own – giving you even more of a tax deduction and sheltering more of your income from tax. Your Kids Child-care expenses: Fees paid to a baby sitter, nursery school or day care center; they all count if you’ve had to pay for child care because you or your spouse was working or in school this past tax year. Generally the spouse with the lower net income (even if it’s zero income) has to claim these expenses."

"text": "Home FAQs When When is my child ready for a booster seat? When is my child ready for a booster seat? Don’t rush to move your child to a booster seat before they’re ready. Each time you “graduate” your child to the next seat, there’s a reduction in the level of protection for your child. Keep your child in each stage for as long as possible. Your child is ready for a booster seat when they have outgrown the weight or height limit of their forward-facing harnesses, which is typically between 40 and 65 pounds. Read your forward-facing car seat’s owner’s manual to determine height and weight limits, and keep your child in a harnessed seat for as long as possible. Children at this stage are not yet ready for adult safety belts and should use belt-positioning booster seats until they are at least 4’9″ and between 8 and 12 years old. Safety belts are designed for 165-pound male adults, so it’s no wonder that research shows poorly fitting adult belts can injure children. Don’t Skip a Step A child who has outgrown the internal harness or height limitations of a forward-facing child safety seat."

In some states, these laws cover front-seat occupants only, but belt laws in 29 states and the District of Columbia cover all rear-seat occupants, too. Belt use laws in only 34 states and the District of Columbia are primary, meaning police may stop vehicles solely for belt law violations. In other jurisdictions, police must have some other reason to stop a vehicle before citing an occupant for failing to buckle up. Safety belt use can have implications in civil suits — 16 states allow the \"\"safety belt defense,\"\" which can reduce damages collected by someone in a crash if the person failed to buckle up. The reduction is permitted only for injuries that would have been prevented by a belt. In some states, the reduction may not exceed a fixed percentage of the damages. Child safety seat laws All 50 states and the District of Columbia have child safety seat laws. Child safety seat laws require children to travel in approved child restraints or booster seats and some permit or require older children to use adult safety belts.

Most commonly these seats are purchased and installed by consumers, but car manufacturers may integrate them directly into their vehicle's design and generally are required to provide anchors and to ensure seat belt compatibility. Many jurisdictions require children defined by age, weight, and/or height to use a government-approved child safety seat when riding in a vehicle. Child safety seats provide passive restraints and must be properly used to be effective. However, research indicates many child safety restraints are often not used properly. ["

My son is 3 years old but quite tall for his age. his car seat that hes in at the minute is up to the age of 4 put its getting too small for him, i can hardly fasten the straps. i wanted to get a booster seat for him but ive been told he has to be four! does anyone know if this is correct? thanks Follow 4 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Car accidents are the leading cause of death for children under 12 years of age. The recommendation to go into a booster seat is both 4 years old AND 40 lbs. This is because before age 4, the bone development of a child will not be able to withstand the forces of a crash with a 3 point belt. It does not matter how tall your son is or how much he weighs as if he is under age 4, he should remain in a 5 point harness seat. A harness seat is outgrown forward facing when ONE of the following happens: -his shoulders are above the top harness slot -when the tips of his ears are even with the shell of the car seat -when he hits the maximum weight limit I wanted to mention that overall height doesn't matter."

When it comes to choosing a car seat for your child there is no single number – age, height, or weight – to determine the best option. Kids come in all shapes and sizes with different personalities and levels of maturity. What might make sense for one child may not be the best choice for another, even if they are the same age or size. In general, the following guidelines will help you make sure your kids are riding safely in the car. If you have questions or if you need help installing and using your car seat or booster seat, visit a Permanent Car Seat Checking Station in your community. Protecting children in crashes requires 3 important steps: The restraint used must be the right type for the size and age of the child,The child must be buckled correctly into the restraint according to the manufacturer’s instructions, and The restraint must be correctly installed in the vehicle according to the child restraint and vehicle manufacturers’ instructions. The restraint used must be the right type for the size and age of the child All US car seats have specifications regarding what size child can use that particular seat. Every seat has a rule that may include age, weight, or height requirements for use of that model. North Carolina law says that it is legal to use any federally approved car seat as long as the child meets the requirements specified by the manufacturer for that seat."

"text": "When is a child ready to use a booster seat? Posted in: Forward-Facing Seats What’s the difference between a car seat and a booster? Let’s make sure we’re on the same page – a booster is a seat where the child sits on it and uses the vehicle’s seat belt as their restraint. A car seat is a seat the child sits in and uses a 5-point harness as their restraint. Yes, there are seats that can do double duty – starting as car seats and turning into boosters. With these seats if your child is using the 5 point harness then they are riding in a car seat – and if your child is sitting on the child restraint and using the vehicle’s seat belt across them, then they are riding in a booster. Why do kids need booster seats? Kids need booster seats to help the seat belt fit properly on the strong, bony parts of their body – their hip bones, sternum, and collar bone – and their body fit properly on the vehicle seat. The lap belt is the hidden danger. A poorly positioned lap belt is what sends kids to the hospital."

An apparent \"\"low-grade\"\" temperature of 100°F may be dismissed by an unknowing pediatric practice as being insignificant. However, if the patient's baseline temperature runs at 96°, such an impression may represent a mistaken conclusion. Autonomic issues include the following, and may present or worsen together with significant trigger factors such as heat or excessive activity, inadequate calorie or fluid intake, or with generalized fatigue: Vascular dysautonomia with lability in heart rate and blood pressure. This can occur with orthostatic changes in position, but symptoms can also occur following exercise or activity, in temperatures that are too extreme, or sometimes for no apparent reason at all. Associated symptoms can include dizziness or lightheadedness, syncope, palpitations or irregular heart rate, dyspnea, and anxiety. Heat and cold intolerance."

Women in World War II took on many different roles during the War, including as combatants, workers on the home front and as victims.

The Soviet Union, for example, integrated women directly into their army units. The United States, by comparison, elected not to use women in combat because public opinion would not tolerate it. [ 1] Instead, like in other nations approximately 350,000 women served as uniformed auxiliaries in non-combat roles in the U. S. armed forces. Women also took part outside of formal military structure in the resistances of France, Italy, and Poland, as well as in the British SOE and American OSS which aided these. Women were also victims of the belligerents. Nazi Germany and collaborators killed approximately 6 million Jews during the Holocaust, approximately 2 million of which were Jewish women."

The experience is grounded in fun, fitness, and fundamentals while also being a key to growing a child’s love for the game. The Little League Tee Ball program provides volunteer coaches with everything they need to create an environment where players will learn the skills of the game, while having fun and staying active. Parents and legal guardians of Tee Ball players are crucial to the extension of the program, and their satisfaction is equally important to its success. The outreach and inclusion of this division sets the foundation for continued participation in the local Little League program. Each Little Leaguer is required to play one season of Tee Ball before being eligible to be evaluated by the local league officials for consideration to advance to a higher division of Little League baseball or softball. The Tee Ball Division is co-ed, but may be structured as a baseball or softball program. Such a decision is made by the local league’s Board of Directors. The use of a robust 10-week program benefits the players and volunteer coaches, who typically are younger parents with little experience as coaches/managers."

A wide range of state assistance programs are generally available to eligible seniors, including home health aides and skilled nursing care, home-delivered meals, help with household chores, transportation to shopping and medical appointments, as well as counseling, advocacy and legal aid. In addition to these programs that help senior citizens directly, many states also offer caregiver assistance programs that provide family caregivers with information, counseling, and respite services. Long Term Care Ombudsman The long-term care ombudsman is a statewide office that was created under the authority of the Older Americans Act. The office of the ombudsman has the responsibility and authority to investigate and resolve complaints from seniors and their family members regarding the quality of care in long-term care facilities, including nursing homes, assisted living facilities, board and care homes, and specialty care facilities, such as dementia day care programs. Agents from the ombudsman's office work as advocates for elderly residents, in response to individual complaints, to ensure that residents receive quality care, that their rights are respected, and that they are treated fairly by the long-term care facility, its providers, and staff. The ombudsman's office is also available to assist seniors and their family members in their dealings with other government agencies, to ensure that elderly patients and residents receive all of the medical, rehabilitation, legal, financial, and social services that they are entitled to by law. Food and Nutrition Programs Congregate and Home Delivered Meals Eligible seniors can receive free nutritious meals, which are professionally prepared and served daily in congregate settings, such as senior and community centers. Most communities also have programs, such as Meals on Wheels, that offer seniors the option to have meals delivered to them every day in their own home. Nutrition Counseling Many local agencies for the aging offer seniors and caregivers nutrition counseling services, to help them make healthy meal choices, and can give advice and recommendations for dealing with the nutritional aspects of various illnesses."

They provided leadership on boards and committees; canvassed for funds; provided advice, counselling or mentoring; visited seniors; prepared and delivered food; served as volunteer drivers; advocated for social causes; coached children and youth. In short, they shaped their communities and enabled non-profit organizations to deliver programs and services to millions of their fellow Canadians. This volunteer work is important not only to individual volunteers but to Canadian society as a whole. For example, according to the 2011 United Nations State of the World's Volunteerism Report, \"\"...volunteerism benefits both society at large and the individual volunteer by strengthening trust, solidarity and reciprocity among citizens, and by purposefully creating opportunities for participation.\"\" 1This article presents information about the volunteer activities of Canadians during the 12-month period preceding the 2010 Canada Survey of Giving, Volunteering and Participating (CSGVP). It discusses the rates of volunteering, the number of hours dedicated by Canadians and the types of organizations they support. It describes the key socioeconomic characteristics of volunteers in general, and then takes a brief look at the \"\"top volunteers\"\" who contribute hundreds of hours to charitable organizations. Next, the article examines the types of volunteer activities Canadians engage in, how they become involved, their motivations for volunteering, and the barriers preventing them from doing more volunteering. The article concludes by looking at the informal volunteering that goes on every day when Canadians help their family, friends and neighbours directly."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Press gang, British caricature of 1780Impressment, colloquially, \"\" the press \"\" or the \"\" press gang \"\", refers to the act of taking men into a military or naval force by compulsion, with or without notice. Navies of several nations used forced recruitment by various means. The large size of the British Royal Navy in the Age of Sail meant impressment was most commonly associated with Britain. It was used by the Royal Navy in wartime, beginning in 1664 and during the 18th and early 19th centuries as a means of crewing warships, although legal sanction for the practice can be traced back to the time of Edward I of England. The Royal Navy impressed many merchant sailors, as well as some sailors from other, mostly European, nations. People liable to impressment were \"\"eligible men of seafaring habits between the ages of 18 and 55 years\"\". Non- seamen were impressed as well, though rarely. Impressment was strongly criticized by those who believed it to be contrary to the British constitution; at the time, unlike many of its continental rivals, British subjects were not subject to conscription for any other military service, aside from a brief experiment with army impressment from 1778 to 1780. Though the public opposed conscription in general, impressment was repeatedly upheld by the courts, as it was deemed vital to the strength of the navy and, by extension, to the survival of the British influence and realm. Impressment was essentially a Royal Navy practice, reflecting the size of the British fleet and its substantial manpower demands."

Children May Work in Limited Capacities Share Flip Pin Email•••By Madison Du Paix Updated June 05, 2017Many adults can't wait for their scheduled vacation time so they can kick back and enjoy not working for a spell, but if you're a young person, you may be a lot more eager to become employed and begin earning your own money. Michigan has laws regarding the minimum legal age to work in the state. And if, in fact, you're old enough to work, there are limits to how many hours you can work per week or per day. There are also differences between the amount of time you can work during the school year versus when you can work when school is out. Working in Michigan as a Youth If you're a youth who'd like to join the labor force in Michigan, you'll need a child employment certificate. The state requires these certificates for all kids under age 18. You can obtain an employment certificate from your school. Although you'll need an employment certificate, Michigan does not require that minor workers have age certificates.

Due to insufficient water treatment, over 100,000 residents were potentially exposed to high levels of lead in the drinking water. After a pair of scientific studies proved lead contamination was present in the water supply, a federal state of emergency was declared in January 2016 and Flint residents were instructed to use only bottled or filtered water for drinking, cooking, cleaning, and bathing. As of early 2017, the water quality had returned to acceptable levels; however, residents were instructed to continue to use bottled or filtered water until all the lead pipes have been replaced, which is expected to be completed no sooner than 2020.

The Flint drinking water contamination issue started in April 2014 when Flint changed its water source from treated Detroit Water and Sewerage Department water (sourced from Lake Huron and the Detroit River) to the Flint River. Officials failed to apply corrosion inhibitors to the water. As a result, there was a series of problems that culminated with lead contamination, creating a serious public health danger. The Flint River water that was treated improperly caused lead from aging pipes to leach into the water supply, leading to extremely elevated levels of the heavy metal neurotoxin. In Flint, between 6,000 and 12,000 children have been exposed to drinking water with high levels of lead and they may experience a range of serious health problems. ["

The city includes all of Mackinac Island and the unpopulated Round Island, which is federally owned and part of Hiawatha National Forest. The city limits include all of Mackinac Island State Park, which area makes up 80% of Mackinac Island; it is governed by the Mackinac Island State Park Commission.

It was named after Pontiac, a war chief of the Ottawa people, who had occupied that area before the European settlers. The city achieved its widest reputation for its General Motors automobile manufacturing plants of the 20th century, which were the basis of its economy and contributed to the wealth of the region. These included Fisher Body, Pontiac East Assembly (a.k.a. Truck & Coach/Bus), which manufactured GMC products, and the Pontiac Motor Division. In the city's heyday, this was the primary automobile assembly plant where the famed Pontiac cars were produced, and was named after the city (the Pontiac name was discontinued by General Motors in 2010). The city of Pontiac also was home to Oakland Motor Car Company, which was acquired by General Motors in 1909."

"text": "(March 2013) Baby boomers in the United States are more likely than the previous generation to have a disability as they near late-life, suggest a growing number of researchers. One new study found that baby boomers (ages 49 to 67 in 2013) are living longer than people roughly 20 years older, but are not healthier. 1 While they are less likely to smoke, have emphysema, or a heart attack, they are more likely to be obese, have diabetes, or high blood pressure than the previous generation at similar ages. Another recent study documented rising disability levels among middle-age Americans (ages 40 to 64, a group that included most baby boomers) in recent years. 2 The analysis identified a link between trends in obesity and disability, according to Linda Martin, a RAND Corporation demographer and lead author of the study. And a study in a recent issue of the journal Demography –synthesizing the results of five national surveys—found increasing disability among those ages 55 to 64 between 2000 and 2008 (a group that included the oldest baby boomers). 3 By contrast, disability levels continued to decline among the oldest Americans (ages 85 and older) and held steady among the elderly ages 65 to 84 during the same period, reported Vicki Freedman, a University of Michigan demographer and lead author. “Troubling,” is what Martin, who has long tracked disability patterns, called the trends. “ These are the members of our future older population. ”Researchers like Martin and Freedman had expected baby boomers to be doing better, given advances in public health and education during the lives of the baby boomers."

"text": "\"Traffic Safety - Related FAQs SEAT BELTS AND CAR SEATSQuestion: What is the law regarding the age and or weight a child should be before they can ride in the front seat? Answer: Michigan law requires children younger than age 4 to ride in a car seat in the rear seat if the vehicle has a rear seat. If all available rear seats are occupied by children under 4, then a child under 4 may ride in a car seat in the front seat. A child in a rear-facing car seat may only ride in the front seat if the air bag is turned off. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, children younger than 13 should be restrained in the rear seat of a vehicle for optimal protection. For more information on Michigan's child passenger safety laws, visit the Child Passenger Safety section of the Michigan Office of Highway Safety Planning Web site. Question: My child isn't 1 year old yet, but has outgrown the weight limit on his rear-facing infant seats. Can he be placed in a forward-facing car seat? Answer: Although Michigan law permits a child to ride forward-facing once they reach 1 year old and 20 pounds, the American Academy of Pediatrics strongly encourages parents to leave babies rear-facing until age 2. Studies have found that children younger than 2 are 75 percent less likely to die or be severely injured in a crash if they are rear-facing."

IDEA serves to provide protection for you by making sure that your state (through your local school district) is providing a Free and Appropriate Public Education (FAPE) for you. FAPE reflects the requirement that each student with a disability is entitled to a publicly-funded education that is designed to meet the individual needs of that student. IDEA provides overarching laws and regulations regarding special education, but states are allowed to “interpret” these laws as long as the basic standards of IDEA are met. In Michigan, Public Act 451 functions as a Mandatory Special Education Act. Michigan’s law provides educational services to students with disabilities up to the age of 26, which is a higher standard than IDEA (age 21). In addition to children diagnosed at birth, Michigan serves infants and toddlers under the age of 3 who are at risk for a disability. You can find information about your state's interpretation of IDEA here. History Changes to IDEA in 2008 Qualifying for Services Section 504The IEP Internet Resources History When the U. S. Department of Education crafted the regulations to implement the Education for All Handicapped Children Act of 1975 (P. L. 94-142), now known as IDEA, it needed to provide a process and criteria for identifying students in the category of \"\"specific learning disability,\"\" which is how most children with dyslexia are identified for services in the public schools. In 2004, IDEA was re-authorized to align closely with the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) legislation."

"text": "Archives | 1983JERSEY PASSES BILL RAISING CASINO GAMBLING AGE TO 21 FROM 18By JOSEPH F. SULLIVAN and SPECIAL TO THE NEW YORK TIMESView page in Times Machine, Page 00002 The New York Times Archives The New Jersey Senate gave final passage today to a bill that raises the legal age for gambling in Atlantic City's casinos from 18 to 21. The bill was passed 23 to 5 and sent to Governor Kean, who has endorsed the change. The bill's passage came only two months after the Legislature voted to raise the drinking age from 18 to 21. Senator John F. Russo, Democrat of Toms River and the chief sponsor of the gambling-age bill that passed today, said casino officials wanted the change ''because they say it is impossible to police the drinking-age law as long as 18-year-olds are permitted to participate in the casino games. '' Alcoholic beverages are served at the gaming tables in Atlantic City. Several senators, including Wayne Dumont Jr., Republican of Phillipsburg, said that 18-year-olds had adequately handled the added responsiblities given them several years ago when the age of majority was lowered from 21. He said it was unfair to take away the rights in a piecemeal fashion. But Senator Russo disagreed, saying, ''This isn't the same thing as taking away the right to vote.'' The following actions were also taken in Trenton: Unemployment Benefits The Kean administration proposed an overhaul of the state's unemployment insurance system. The plan calls for increasing maximum weekly benefits but tightening eligibility, to reverse deficits that have grown since 1975 and threaten the system with bankruptcy."

S. state has its own tax code. Not all states, however, impose a personal income tax. Seven do not: Alaska, Florida, Nevada, South Dakota, Texas, Washington, and Wyoming. New Hampshire and Tennessee impose personal income tax only on dividend and interest income. Accordingly, residents of these nine states do not have to pay to their state income tax on gambling winnings. That leaves forty-one states with a general personal income tax. Takeaway #1: In general, a state that imposes a personal income tax levies a tax on gambling winnings of its residents."

"text": "\"Can I Sea Some ID? The ABCs of Cruise Line Age Policies You may think anything goes in those lawless international waters, but truth is, the cruise lines maintain fairly strict policies governing the age at which you can drink booze, gamble and occupy a cabin alone. By Heidi Sarnaadvertisement You may think anything goes in those lawless international waters, but truth is, the cruise lines maintain fairly strict policies governing the age at which you can drink booze, gamble and occupy a cabin alone. Typically, the combination key/ID/charge cards each passenger is issued clearly indicate if the holder is under age. The only hope of getting a drink on a cruise ship if you're an underage teen is getting some older sucker to buy it for you when no one's looking. If a cruise line wants to be hard nosed, they can eject transgressors from the ship at the next port of call -- at their own cost. Drinking laws may be much more lenient on shore, for instance in the Caribbean. Of course it wasn't always this way. Just a decade ago rowdy high school groups were a common sight on big cruise ships, especially during the spring break months. Barely chaperoned mobs of young binge drinkers would practically take over a ship, hogging deck chairs, spilling out of cabins, passing out in hallways, puking on stairs and boldly staggering up to adults in bars asking for drinks (which, if they were cute enough, they usually got!)."

"text": "Legal Gambling Age In The USAThe legal gambling age is usually codified into law with a number of different variables. Unlike the legal drinking age, gambling ages can vary by state, type of gambling and whether or not it is actually charitable or for profit gambling. Think of it as if you would have to be 18 to drink beer and 21 to drink liquor, or 18 to smoke cigars and 21 to smoke cigarettes. Some states go as low as 16, while others will not let you reach 21. We are here to try to explore and illuminate the actual requirements. Though we are not attorneys, nor are we able to give legal advice, we will tell you the legal gambling ages by state that we are aware of. Online Gambling vs. Land Based Gambling We covered a great number of different types of gambling in our search for the truth behind the issue. This was a complicated task, considering each state offers its own set of types of gambling. While one state may be able to offer sports betting, be it online or through a land based business, the next may not have the same luxury. By breaking down each state individually, we had hoped to clarify the requests for such information that we had previously received."

The tiny city is an historic mining settlement founded in 1859 during the Pike's Peak Gold Rush. Black Hawk is a part of the Denver-Aurora-Lakewood, CO Metropolitan Statistical Area. Black Hawk is located adjacent to Central City, another historic mining settlement in Gregory Gulch. The two cities form the federally designated Central City/Black Hawk National Historic District. The area flourished during the mining boom of the late 19th century following the construction of mills and a railroad link to Golden. The town declined during the 20th century, but has been revived in recent years after the 1991 establishment of casino gambling following a statewide initiative in 1990."

Described below is a sample of individuals whose extreme transgressions have brought the ire or admiration of their communities and the attention of society as famous criminals. Joseph ADONIS (1902 - 1972) Adonis was born Joseph Doto. Alleged to be vane and self-centered, he changed his name to Joe Adonis, and was known to the inner-circle as \"\"Joey A.\"\". In 1927, with other underworld figures he formed the Seven Group to control the illicit alcohol trade. He was also involved in controlling gambling in sections of New Jersey and New York. In 1951 he pleaded guilty to violating New Jersey's gambling laws and served a two year prison term. Rather then encounter New York's indictment against him for violating their state gambling laws, as well as perjury charges brought about by the Federal Government concerning his citizenship, he accepted deportation to Milan, Italy, where he died of natural causes. Albert ANASTASIA (1903 - 1957) A senior Mafioso leader of New York's underworld, Albert Anastasia was known as the \"\"Lord High Executioner\"\" of Murder, Incorporated. He was involved in numerous violent criminal acts, the narcotics trade and those victimless crimes of gambling and prostitution."

He had a skin disease on his head. Many of the famous baseball teams and players came to Hot Springs for their spring training. Before he became a famous preacher, the athlete Billy Sunday came here for spring training with the Chicago White Stockings (now the Chicago Cubs) as early as 1886. Connie Mack came down with the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1896. Why did they come? The growth of the city, whose main purpose would to be provide attractive and desirable services for visitors.... caused visitors to come from all across the nation in search of health and recreation. Although the thermal baths were a real plus for baseball players seeking therapy for their aching muscles, Hot Springs had a major industry of recreation that attracted a variety of characters - casino gambling."

"text": "Related Articles1What Are the Negatives About Enlisting in the Marines?2Jobs in the Marine Corps Reserve3How Long Are Marines Usually Deployed?4Marine Corps Fighter Pilot Requirements The U. S. Marine Corps is organized as an expeditionary force that can deploy quickly and launch amphibious operations or ground assaults. The Marine Air-Ground Task Force is organized into four elements: the command, ground, aviation and logistics combat elements. Although not everyone views the pros and cons of a particular branch of the military in the same light, there are some general facts about joining the Marines that can be viewed as disadvantages compared to joining other military branches. Jobs in the Marine Corps In terms of size, all other branches of the U. S. military, except the Coast Guard, have more personnel than the Marines - both enlisted and officers. This in itself creates limited availability for Marine jobs. Further, the Marine Corps does not offer the same selection of jobs that some of the other branches have. For example, there are no medical personnel in the Marines; the Marine Corps uses Navy medical personnel when necessary, therefore those aspiring to become medics are not able to do so in the Marines. Basic Training All new enlistees, regardless of branch, must undergo some type of basic training. The Navy calls it boot camp, the Army calls it basic combat training, and the Air Force calls it basic military training. In the Marine Corps, it has the somewhat softer title of recruit training."

Federal law dictates that you have to be at least 17 to join, and that is with parental consent. Otherwise, you have to be 18 years old. As of 2015, the maximum age for enlisting in the Military is 42, though the Army has set its own lower age limit. Or, as the Army puts it, you must not have reached your 35th birthday before the time of accession. However, if you have prior military service, you can be older. To determine how old, just subtract your total active duty time from your age. If this number is less than 35, you meet the age eligibility requirements for active duty. For the Army Reserve you must be able to retire with 20 years of federal service before the age of 60."

[ 1] Instead, like in other nations approximately 350,000 women served as uniformed auxiliaries in non-combat roles in the U. S. armed forces. Women also took part outside of formal military structure in the resistances of France, Italy, and Poland, as well as in the British SOE and American OSS which aided these.

For example, most military branches have the same age and citizenship requirements. Navy Seals recruitment is no different in that many of its requirements regarding enlistment are the same as other military branches. However, there are some differences, and anyone interested in joining the Navy should research specific requirements demanded by the Navy, and not assume that Army, Air Force or Marine requirements apply to the Navy. Age requirements – The Navy recruit must be at least 17 years old. Anyone under the age of 18 must have parental consent for joining. Keep in mind that the Naval Reserve has a different age standard. To join the Navy, a person must not be over 34 years old at time of enlistment. Education – A Navy recruit must have obtained a high school graduation diploma or high school equivalency diploma. For the high school graduate, that means completing the 12th grade and possessing a diploma."

The body should be straight but not rigid, similar to the position of attention. The measurement will be rounded to the nearest inch with the following guidelines: if the height fraction is less than 1/2 inch, round down. If the height fraction is 1/2 inch or greater, round up. Weight will be measured and recorded to the nearest pound. Both height and weight will be officially taken at the Military Entrance Processing Station (MEPS).

Below are the training/restriction requirements for U. S. Army personnel undergoing Initial Entry Training (IET) as required by TRADOC Reg 350-6. IET is the period of time from the first day of basic training, through job training, and ends when the soldier graduates from their job training and reports to their first permanent duty assignment (PDA). The Army has two different IET processes. The first process is where the recruit goes through basic training for nine weeks and then goes to a separate school called Advanced Individual Training, or AIT to learn their Army job. The second method (used mostly for combat jobs) is called One-Station-Unit-Training, or OSUT. This combines basic training and job training into one single course. When we discuss the training phases below, Phases I through III are for basic training, and the first nine weeks of OSUT, which is the basic training portion of OSUT. Phase IV begins on the first day of AIT (job school) or week 10 of OSUT. General Restrictions During Army Initial Entry Training The goal of IET is to transform civilians into technically and tactically competent soldiers who live by the Army's values and are prepared to take their place in the ranks of the Army."

The Ministry of Defence said the age limit for individuals with specific qualifications or experience has been raised from 45 to 50, while the maximum age for ex-regular soldiers joining was increased earlier this year from 43 to 52. An Mo D spokeswoman said: \"\"We make no apology for revising the age requirements for ex-regular soldiers to join the Reserves and share their wealth of knowledge and expertise.

The change comes as the Army's plan to cut regular troops and replace them with reservists came under fire yesterday, after it was revealed the size of the part-time force increased by just 20 in the last 12 months. Figures showed the trained strength of the volunteer Army Reserve rose from 19,290 in October last year to 19,310 a year later. Tory MP John Baron said the plans to replace 20,000 regular troops with 30,000 reservists were a \"\"shambles\"\" and shadow defence secretary Vernon Coaker warned the forces could be left with a \"\"dangerous\"\" gap.

The Air Force raised the maximum age for enlisted accession from 27 to 39, meaning it may now be the best choice for those who feel the call to military service later in life. The maximum age for Army enlisted recruits is 35, while the Navy and Marines cap recruit ages at 34 and 28, respectively.

The increased maximum age is for all Air Force enlisted occupations rather than being targeted at increasing accessions in certain areas, she said. The new policy comes at a time of a declining defense budget, a shrinking military and falling recruiting goals, however.

MIAMI (AP) — Nearly one-fourth of the students who try to join the U. S. Army fail its entrance exam, painting a grim picture of an education system that produces graduates who can't answer basic math, science and reading questions, according to a study released Tuesday. The report by The Education Trust bolsters a growing worry among military and education leaders that the pool of young people qualified for military service will grow too small. \"\" Too many of our high school students are not graduating ready to begin college or a career — and many are not eligible to serve in our armed forces,\"\" U.

The report by The Education Trust found that 23 percent of recent high school graduates don't get the minimum score needed on the enlistment test to join any branch of the military. Questions are often basic, such as: \"\"If 2 plus x equals 4, what is the value of x? \"\" The military exam results are also worrisome because the test is given to a limited pool of people: Pentagon data shows that 75 percent of those aged 17 to 24 don't even qualify to take the test because they are physically unfit, have a criminal record or didn't graduate high school."

About half (or slightly less) of Second Lieutenants make it this far. Call it 48% to make the numbers round. Only one out of four Majors (12% of the original group) are promoted to Lieutenant Colonel by age 40. Half of the Majors retire around that time at half pay. The remaining one quarter serve out their careers as Majors, and are promoted to Lieutenant Colonel around age 50, shortly before retirement, for purposes of calculating their pensions. This is a form of \"\"social promotion. \"\" Half of the Lieutenant Colonels (6% of the total) are promoted \"\"naturally\"\" to Colonel by age 45; the remainder, at the end of their careers.

Under existing rules, 69 is the age limit for a juror but the Government intends to change the law to include those aged 70 to 75. This will add two million to the list of potential jurors. Up to 6,000 over-69s are expected to be called every year. Ministers plan to raise the age of jurors from 69 to 75 to reflect longer life expectancy in the UK (file picture)Criminal Justice Minister Damian Green said it was 'vital the criminal justice system moves with the times'Anyone summoned would be expected to serve unless they had a good reason why they should be excused – such as mental illness or incapacity. Ministers said the change, expected to come into force next year, reflects changes in life expectancy. Criminal Justice Minister Damian Green said the shift would enable the criminal justice system to benefit from the knowledge and ‘life experiences’ of older people. ‘The right to be tried by your peers is, and remains, a cornerstone of the British Justice system laid down in the Magna Carta almost 800 years ago,’ he said. ‘Our society is changing and it is vital that the criminal justice system moves with the times. The law as it currently stands does not take into account the increases to life expectancy that have taken place over the past 25 years."

"text": "1 Comment The age of jury service is to be raised by five years to include 70- to 75-year-olds in a move expected to cut the cost of compensating jurors taking time off work. The changes will be legislated through an act of parliament early next year, the Ministry of Justice said today. Criminal justice minister Damian Green said the legislation was necessary to reflect societal changes. ‘ The law as it currently stands does not take into account the increases to life expectancy that have taken place over the past 25 years,’ he said. Some 178,000 people in England and Wales undertake jury service each year. Currently only 18- to 70-year-olds are eligible to sit as jurors. The age range was last amended by the Criminal Justice Act 1988, which raised the upper limit from 65 to 70. In 2011 Scotland removed the upper age limit on jury service. Those called up over 70 have a ‘right of excusal’.

"text": "Topic: CRIME VICTIMS; JUDICIAL DEPARTMENT; JURIES; LEGISLATION; LEGISLATIVE INTENT; Location: JURIES;August 21, 20082008-R-0469JURY SELECTION POOL AND EXEMPTIONSBy: Christopher Reinhart, Senior Attorney You asked (1) why the law was expanded to require the Judicial Branch to use multiple lists to compile its jury selection pool and (2) whether any states exempt violent crime victims from jury service. SUMMARYConnecticut ' s law on how the jury administrator creates a master file for summoning jurors has changed over the years. The most significant change in recent years came in 1996. PA 06-179 expanded the lists of people used to make up the jury pool to include motor vehicle owners, state personal income taxpayers, and public assistance and unemployment compensation recipients, in addition to the registered voters and licensed motor vehicle operators previously required by law. The legislative history of the 1996 change indicates that it was intended to expand the jury pool. Because the process of compiling the master file was limited to registered voters and licensed motor vehicle operators at the time, some legislators argued that it left out a significant part of the population. Legislators stated that using more lists would provide a more representative group of people for the jury pool. The law has changed several times since 1996, including in 1997 when PA 97-200 made some changes to the process and removed two lists from the process of compiling the master file. Connecticut law currently requires the jury administrator to create the master file from voter, licensed driver, unemployment compensation recipient, and state personal income taxpayer lists (CGS § 51-222a). Under Connecticut law, certain people are disqualified or exempt from serving on a jury."

This Bill came about as a result of the concern over child pornography and the sexual exploitation of children that had arisen in the United States of America in 1977. [ 1] This cause was taken up in the UK by the press [2] and Mary Whitehouse, who in a speech in 1977 had accused the Albany Trust of using public money effectively supporting the Paedophile Information Exchange (the project for a joint Albany/PIE pamphlet was scrapped). Decades later, it emerged that she had been accurate in her assertion. [ 3] The existence of PIE was given by Townsend as an issue favouring legislation against child pornography. [ 4] Whitehouse's National Viewers' and Listeners' Association was able to campaign in support of the Bill and present a petition bearing 1 1⁄ 2 million signatures. [ 5]When the progress of the bill was threatened by MP Ian Mikardo, who blocked it to protest against tactics being used by the Conservative party to block Edward Fletcher 's bill on employment protection, the Prime Minister, James Callaghan, stepped in to ensure that the Bill received the time required to become law. [ 6]Offences [ edit]Currently, the Act [7] defines as offences, roughly: To take or make any indecent photograph or pseudo-photograph of a child;To show or distribute such (pseudo-)photographs;To possess such (pseudo-)photographs with intent to show or distribute them;To advertise for showing or distributing such (pseudo-)photographs."

"text": "[] [] [] [] [ Edit]Should the voting age be lowered to 16? [ Edit]Background and context The right to vote is one of the most important human rights. It gives men and women the chance to have a say in the way they are governed. It allows them to get rid of bad governments and makes sure that any government listens to its people, for fear of being thrown out at the next election. It is one of the most important ways in which other rights (e.g. free speech, the right to a fair trial) are protected. Not every country in the world is a democracy, with free elections giving citizens a fair political choice. But the right to vote is spreading and outright dictatorships are increasingly few on every continent. Yet what should that right to vote mean? A century or so ago almost no countries allowed women to vote, and it took decades of struggle for them to win political rights. Fifty years ago countries such as South Africa and many states in the USA limited the rights of black people to vote, but that too has changed for the better."

It also protects minority opinions or unpopular causes from persecution or prosecution. The grand jury concept has a long history and has adapted throughout the centuries to meet the needs and conditions of each time period. Grand juries perform two primary roles. One is to evaluate the validity of charges being brought by a prosecutor, if the charges are not reviewed by a judge, to ensure that they are not frivolous or ungrounded. The other is to inquire into, and investigate if necessary, the operations of local government agencies and officials to ensure that activities are valid and services are efficiently and legally provided. In both instances, the secrecy of the grand jury's deliberations is a common thread that ensures independent and objective consideration of facts brought before it. An Invitation to Participate in the Grand Jury You can make a difference Participation in Grand Jury investigation and discussion is a rich and rewarding experience.

Fraud itself can be a civil wrong (i.e., a fraud victim may sue the fraud perpetrator to avoid the fraud or recover monetary compensation), a criminal wrong (i.e., a fraud perpetrator may be prosecuted and imprisoned by governmental authorities) or it may cause no loss of money, property or legal right but still be an element of another civil or criminal wrong. [ 1] The purpose of fraud may be monetary gain or other benefits, such as obtaining a passport or travel document, driver's license or qualifying for a mortgage by way of false statements.

While the precise definitions and requirements of proof vary among jurisdictions, the requisite elements of fraud as a tort generally are the intentional misrepresentation or concealment of an important fact upon which the victim is meant to rely, and in fact does rely, to the harm of the victim. [ 3] Proving fraud in a court of law is often said to be difficult. [ citation needed] That difficulty is found, for instance, in that each and every one of the elements of fraud must be proven, that the elements include proving the states of mind of the perpetrator and the victim, and that some jurisdictions require the victim to prove fraud by clear and convincing evidence. [ citation needed]The remedies for fraud may include rescission (i.e., reversal) of a fraudulently obtained agreement or transaction, the recovery of a monetary award to compensate for the harm caused, punitive damages to punish or deter the misconduct, and possibly others.

Age limit for jury duty3.1 In Scotland, individuals over the age of 65 are not eligible for jury duty. The age limit for jurors was last reviewed in 1975 by the Thomson Committee whose report recommended an extension of the (then) age limit from 60 to 65 years of age. The age limit has not since been reconsidered. In recent years, many have asked why the age limit for jury duty remains capped at 65.3.2 Across every strand of public policy, there is a growing recognition of the contribution that the over 65 age group can make to society. All our Futures: Planning for a Scotland with an Ageing Population (2007) stimulated debate on this issue. For the individuals concerned, opportunities to remain engaged in community and public affairs make for a more varied, healthier and rewarding life. The Scottish Children's Reporter Administration has recently removed its upper age limit for children's panel members and the General Teaching Council of Scotland has removed the mandatory leaving age of 70. Judges (including lay justices) serve until age 70. Against this background, the question naturally arises why those aged 65 to 70 are not entitled to serve on juries.3.3 Recent academic research (Goteborg Studies in Sweden, Swedish Twin Study and Schaie's Seattle Longitudinal Study) reveal that today's 70 year olds are comparable to 65 year olds who lived 30 years ago."

Then we take more poison to counteract the poisons. Beam me up Scotty, the inmates are insane .”Dr Nancy Swanson; on the history of how corporations have successfully changed the laws in the US to poison our food (03/04/2014):“ The world of systemic insecticides is a weird world, surpassing the imaginings of the brothers Grimm. It is a world where the enchanted forest of the fairy tales has become a poisonous forest. It is a world where a flea bites a dog and dies…where a bee may carry poisonous nectar back to its hive and presently produce poisonous honey.” Rachel Carson on systemic insecticides in “Silent Spring”: 27/09/1962“I listened and heard nothing, no bird, no click of insect. There were no bees. The air, the ground, seemed vacant…It felt like another planet entirely.”“ Yet, 100 years ago, these same fields, these prairies, were home to 300 species of plants, 60 mammals, 300 birds, hundreds and hundreds of insects. This soil was the richest, the loamiest in the state."

If you make $30.00 per month or more in tips, the employer may pay as little as $4.35 per hour. If in any work week the wage the employer pays you and the tips you receive do not average at least $7.25 per hour, the employer is required to pay the difference. Can an employer pay less than minimum wage for the first 90 days of a new hire’s employment? Yes. An Iowa employer is allowed to pay an “initial employment wage” of $6.35 per hour for the first 90 days. Iowa’s “initial employment wage” is not the same thing as the federal “training wage” that allows certain employees to be paid less than minimum wage.

The chart summarizes the most common events in the criminal and juvenile justice systems including entry into the criminal justice system, prosecution and pretrial services, adjudication, sentencing and sanctions, and corrections. A discussion of the events in the criminal justice system follows. Contents The response to crime Entry into the system Prosecution and pretrial services Adjudication Sentencing and sanctions Corrections Recidivism The juvenile justice system The structure of the justice system Discretion is exercised throughout the criminal justice system The response to crime The private sector initiates the response to crime This first response may come from individuals, families, neighborhood associations, business, industry, agriculture, educational institutions, the news media, or any other private service to the public. It involves crime prevention as well as participation in the criminal justice process once a crime has been committed. Private crime prevention is more than providing private security or burglar alarms or participating in neighborhood watch. It also includes a commitment to stop criminal behavior by not engaging in it or condoning it when it is committed by others. Citizens take part directly in the criminal justice process by reporting crime to the police, by being a reliable participant (for example, a witness or a juror) in a criminal proceeding and by accepting the disposition of the system as just or reasonable. As voters and taxpayers, citizens also participate in criminal justice through the policymaking process that affects how the criminal justice process operates, the resources available to it, and its goals and objectives."

In Alaska, the age of majority is 18. This means that an 18 year old is considered an adult for most legal purposes. An important exception is that an 18 year old does not have the right to possess and consume alcohol, which is legal only for those who have reached the age of 21. Another exception is that persons under the age of 19 are not legally allowed to buy or use tobacco. What restrictions on legal rights apply to minors? Minor is a legal word used to mean a person who has not yet turned 18. Some of the things a minor is not allowed to do are: Vote Join the military Sign contracts Buy or sell real estate Sign a lease to rent a house Serve on a jury Buy and use tobacco or alcohol Get a tattoo A minor needs a parent’s permission to: Get married Go to a doctor or dentist, except in certain circumstances Get a driver’s license Get a body piercing What does emancipation mean? Emancipation is a process that gives a person who is between the ages of 16 and 18, the legal status of an adult for many purposes. An emancipated minor is no longer subject to the authority of a parent or guardian, and has the legal right to do certain things—but not drink alcohol or use tobacco-- that are otherwise prohibited for a person under the age of 18."

What are the Seat Belt Laws in North Carolina? To protect all individuals during transportation, the use of a safety belt is mandatory for the driver and all passengers in North Carolina, regardless of age. Responsibility for enforcing this in the vehicle is as follows: The driver is responsible for the proper use of a safety belt for all passengers under 16 years old, and will be cited if these passengers are found not to be wearing one. Passengers 16 years old and older are held responsible themselves for safety belt use, and will receive their own violations if they are found not to be wearing a set belt. The use of seat belts is a primary law in North Carolina. This means that law enforcement may stop individuals if a violation is observed, without needing any other type of infraction to be committed concurrently. NC Child Car Seats Laws For children of a certain age, weight, or height, the use of a child safety seat may be required by law. In North Carolina, the law is as follows: A child safety seat or booster seat is required for children who: Are under 8 years old."

Posted on July 24, 2015 by Laurel 1 Comment (Last Updated On: July 28, 2017)Recently, Graco has released several new convertible seats to the market, adding a wider array of convertible and multi-use restraint options to its lineup. Several questions we’re asked are “What is the difference between these seats?” “ Is this seat similar to that seat?” “ How do I know which one I want?” If you’ve had any of those thoughts, you’re not alone. Sometimes when manufacturers produce many restraints, and especially when several are released to market within a shorter period, parents and caregivers can be a little caught up in a tizzy of information and options. There are currently a grand total of 16 convertible and All-in-1 Graco seats unexpired and on the market, but several of those seats are identical versions sold under different names in different locations. Not included in that number are the Nautilus and Argos combination seats, which are sometimes sold as “3-in-1” seats, but do not have a rear facing mode. Here’s the full list of restraints, grouped together with similar or identical versions: Comfort Sport and Classic Ride 50/Ready Ride, My Ride 65 and My Ride 70 (including the LX and DLX versions), Size4me 70/My Size 70 and Head Wise 70, Size4Me 65/Fit4Me 65/My Size 65 and Head Wise 65, Contender 65, Smart Seat All-in-1, Milestone All-in-1, and 4Ever All-in-1."

In some states, these laws cover front-seat occupants only, but belt laws in 29 states and the District of Columbia cover all rear-seat occupants, too. Belt use laws in only 34 states and the District of Columbia are primary, meaning police may stop vehicles solely for belt law violations. In other jurisdictions, police must have some other reason to stop a vehicle before citing an occupant for failing to buckle up. Safety belt use can have implications in civil suits — 16 states allow the \"\"safety belt defense,\"\" which can reduce damages collected by someone in a crash if the person failed to buckle up. The reduction is permitted only for injuries that would have been prevented by a belt. In some states, the reduction may not exceed a fixed percentage of the damages. Child safety seat laws All 50 states and the District of Columbia have child safety seat laws. Child safety seat laws require children to travel in approved child restraints or booster seats and some permit or require older children to use adult safety belts.

The recommendation to go into a booster seat is both 4 years old AND 40 lbs. This is because before age 4, the bone development of a child will not be able to withstand the forces of a crash with a 3 point belt. It does not matter how tall your son is or how much he weighs as if he is under age 4, he should remain in a 5 point harness seat. A harness seat is outgrown forward facing when ONE of the following happens: -his shoulders are above the top harness slot -when the tips of his ears are even with the shell of the car seat -when he hits the maximum weight limit I wanted to mention that overall height doesn't matter."

"text": "\"Booster Seats Booster seats are designed for children who no longer fit in a 5 point harnessed car seat, and who are too small to correctly fit an adult seat belt. The booster helps to correctly position the seat belt over the child's body. Also known as a belt positioning booster. Recent research in New Zealand and Australia shows that children need to use a booster seat until somewhere between 8 and 12 years of age (Elizabeth Segedin, 2006). All 4 and 5 year olds required a car seat or booster seat90% of 6, 7, and 8 year olds required booster seats50% of 9 and 10 year olds10% of 11 and 12 year olds still required booster seats In addition to the above figures, Sam Tormey (2008) states the following,\"\"The rear seat of the average family car is too deep for almost half of adult women to sit upright and comfortably bend their knees over the edge of the seat, and the seatbelt in the rear seat is unsafe for any person less than 145cm tall. Children do not reach this height until around 11 years old, on average. There are two main concerns with being too small for an adult belt: the lap portion rides across the tummy, not the bony hips, causing abdominal injury in a crash, and the sash portion rides across the neck rather than the chest, causing injury to the neck and throat. Long seat cushions exacerbate these concerns by causing the child or small adult to slump so that their knees can bend at the edge of the seat, causing both parts of the seatbelt to ‘ride up’.\"\" Sydney's Child August 2008, pg 32. Syndey's Child publication [ 28, 29, 30, 31, 32]It is recommended that your child remains in a harnessed restraint right up to the maximum specified weight limit, then use a full backed booster."

NYS law requires children under age eight to be restrained in an appropriate child safety restraint system. An appropriate child restraint system is one that meets the child's size and weight and the specifications of the manufacturer of such system. A child restraint system may be a child safety seat, harness, vest or a booster seat. The vehicle's safety belt alone is not a child restraint system. More information about NYS's law on child passenger safety can be found on the Governor's Traffic Safety Committee website. What is a booster seat? A belt-positioning booster seat is a child restraint that provides the needed lift so that the lap and shoulder belt fit properly. Correct fit of seat belts help protect the stomach, spine and head from injury in a crash. Why does my child need to ride in a belt-positioning booster seat?"

Missouri law requires the use of a child car or booster seat for all children under four years of age. For kids who are four and older, age and weight stipulations apply. Fines for violating child restraint laws vary, depending on which portion of the regulation you violate.

In addition, all children who weigh less than 40 pounds must be in a child restraint system while traveling in a motor vehicle. Kids between the ages of four and seven, who weigh less than 80 pounds and are less than 4 feet 9 inches tall, must be placed in a booster seat.

"text": "Sizes of Infant Booster Seats Booster seats can be used for babies who can sit-up on their own, usually during their toddler years up to about twelve years of age. There are infant booster seats that provide the right support on the baby’s back as well as keep him safely in place as he is traveling in the car. There are also booster seats that you can attach to tables and chairs to provide the baby with just the right seat size as he is being fed or is eating with you at the table. There are various sizes of infant booster seats that are readily available today and you will find that the sizes have approximate age, weight and height recommendations. Sizes of Infant Booster Seats Depending on which type of booster seat you will be getting, the sizes of infant booster seats may vary. Car Booster Seats For car booster seats, you may find that the sizes are indicated in various ways on the labels. For instance, sizes of infant booster seats may simply indicate the length, width and height of the seat and the maximum weight limit; while others may indicate their sizes in widths of the seat base and interior seat, height, weight limits and exterior seat depth. There are sizes of infant booster seats that measure approximately 19.5 inches in length by 18.5 inches in width and 25.5 inches in height with a maximum child weight of 100 pounds. There are likewise booster seats that measure 15 inches wide for the seat base, 26 inches for the seat height, 14 inches up to 20 inches for the interior seat width and an exterior seat depth of 15 inches. For this size, the minimum child weight is about 30 pounds with a maximum of up to 120 pounds."

"text": "Child Car Seats Staying Within the Law and Your Budget In Georgia, automobile accidents are the leading cause of death and injuries for children ages 1 to 12 years. The national statistics are sobering - in 2009, 1,314 children were killed and 179,000 were injured, according to the CDC. The lack or improper use of car seats is a major contributor to this problem. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), 4 out of every 10 children under 6 who die or are seriously injured in auto accidents were unrestrained or improperly restrained; however, when car seats are used correctly they are 71% effective in preventing injury among infants and 54% effective with children ages 1-4. Realizing the crucial role that car seats play in child safety, Georgia lawmakers passed laws and regulations pertaining to their use. According to Georgia law: ALL children under the age of 8 whose height is less than 57 inches must ride in the backseat of a car. A child is safer in the back and farthest away from the force of an airbag. Remember that airbags are designed to save adults, and since they deploy with great force they can be fatal to children. Children under the age of 8 are required to be in either a car seat or a booster seat suitable for their age and height. If there is not a back seat in the vehicle (e.g., a truck) or if other restrained children are in the back seat, Georgia law permits a child under the age of 8 to sit in front if restrained in the proper car seat or booster and the child weighs at least 40 pounds."

Many accidents can be prevented by simple precautions. The following are some tips to help secure your child's safety. Child Safety Seats (Car Seats)Transporting your child safely in the car is not an easy thing to do. Most parents make an attempt to fasten their children in properly, but a National Highway Transportation Safety Administration study found that 80 percent of all child safety seats are installed incorrectly or misused. The same study showed that in more than 50 percent of deaths due to car crashes in children less than 15 years old, the victims were not properly restrained. Research has shown that child safety seats reduce the risk of dying in a car crash by 71 percent. The lesson to be learned from these figures is that we need to secure our children, our older passengers, and ourselves properly each and every time we ride in a motor vehicle, no matter how short the trip may be. Keep in mind that most car crashes take place two miles or less from home. Recycling Car Seats Guidelines for Using Child Safety Seats Here is some basic information to use as guidelines for child safety seats and keeping older children safe in cars: Rear-Facing As Long As Possible into the Second Year of Life Infants are required to be rear-facing until one year of age and 20 pounds, but new crash studies show that infants are much safer if placed in the rear facing position."

Both payments are paid by the Department of Employment Affairs and Social Protection (DEASP). You may get Jobseeker's Allowance if you don't qualify for Jobseeker's Benefit or if you have used up your entitlement to Jobseeker's Benefit. In some cases, if you are only entitled to a reduced rate of Jobseeker's Benefit you may be better off on Jobseeker's Allowance. However, Jobseeker's Allowance is means-tested, and your means must be below a certain level to qualify. The Jobseeker’s Transitional payment (JST) is a special arrangement under the Jobseeker’s Allowance scheme that aims to support lone parents into the workforce while they have young children. This payment is available to people parenting alone whose youngest child is aged between 7 and 13 years inclusive. Budget 2018: the maximum weekly rate of Jobseeker’s Allowance will increase by €5. This increase will also apply to those on age-related reduced rates. In addition, the weekly rate for a qualified child will increase by €2 from €29.80 to €31.80."

The work of Community Corrections employees revolves around monitoring defendants and other people under supervision and offering them access to programs and services designed to discourage future law-breaking behavior. In addition to the monitoring and program access, the emphasis with adult offenders and juvenile delinquents over the last 10 years has been focused on changing behaviors through the use of evidence-based practices. Community corrections programs, which are alternatives to confinement, include pretrial services, diversion, probation, parole, and community-based residential and non-residential programs (e.g., day reporting centers and halfway houses). It should be noted that in some jurisdictions, those who work in the community corrections arena are certified peace officers, and training reflects not only this role, but the roles previously stated (see pre-service training area for more detail). Community Corrections agencies supervise most of the adult and juvenile correctional populations in local, state, federal, and tribal jurisdictions across the United States. To learn more about how Community Corrections is administered within these jurisdictions, click on the links below. Local and State Federal Tribal Local and State Pretrial services can be administered by a wide array of agencies and organizations including, but not limited to: local government, state agency, non-profit organization or court. Diversion services (designed to divert an individuals’ further involvement with the justice system) are often administered by pretrial or probation agencies; however, these programs can also be overseen by the prosecutor’s office, the court or nonprofit organizations.

If you have been terminated or unable to stay on at your place of employment because of extreme harassment or discriminatory treatment simply because of your age, you have legal recourse and our New Jersey Age Discrimination Lawyers can help.

The experienced New Jersey Age Discrimination Lawyers at Castronovo & Mc Kinney can help you with this vital employment issue. Age Discrimination in NJThe Federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act deals with age discrimination for employees and job applicants over the age of 40. Though it does not offer protection for younger workers, New Jersey state law does extend protection to this category of workers. Whether or not the employer who demonstrates the discriminatory behavior is over 40 has no bearing. Employers may not discriminate against individuals over 40 in all stages and aspects of employment, from the application process through ending the work relationship. This includes harassment that creates a hostile work environment.

"text": "\" (PPS-67)SSR 82-41SSR 82-41: TITLES II AND XVI: WORK SKILLS AND THEIR TRANSFERABILITY AS INTENDED BY THE EXPANDED VOCATIONAL FACTORS REGULATIONS EFFECTIVE FEBRUARY 26, 1979PURPOSE: To further explain the concepts of \"\"skills\"\" and \"\"transferability of skills\"\" and to clarify how these concepts are used in disability evaluation. CITATIONS (AUTHORITY): Sections 223 (d) (2) (A) and 1614 (a) (3) (B) of the Social Security Act; Regulations No. 4, sections 404.1520 (f), 404.1545, 404.1561, 404.1563, 404.1565, 404.1566 and 404.1568; Regulations No. 16, sections 416.920 (f), 416.945, 416.961, 416.963, 416.965, 416.966 and 416.968; and Appendix 2, Subpart P of Regulations No. 4, sections 200.00 (b), 201.00 (e), 201.00 (f), 202.00 (e) and 202.00 (f). PERTINENT HISTORY: The law states that, to be found disabled, a worker must have a medically determinable physical or mental impairment (s) of such severity that he or she is not only unable to do previous work but cannot, considering his or her age, education and work experience, engage in any other kind of substantial gainful work which exists in the national economy. Skills and their transferability relate to \"\"work experience\"\" in the definition of disability and to people's abilities to do occupations different from those they did before becoming impaired. Claims which require consideration of an applicant's ability to adjust to other work are addressed in the last step of the sequential evaluation process as it is explained in the regulations. In February 1979, the regulations were amended to consolidate all policies for adjudicating disability claims in which an individual's vocational factors; i.e., age, education and work experience, must be considered in addition to the medical condition. At that time, the medical-vocational guidelines were introduced as Appendix 2 into the regulations and became binding at all levels of adjudication and appeal."

Below is a transcript of postings on Singapore Expat forum from readers talking about the PEP scheme:-ausinsg Posted: Tue Dec 13, 2011 4:37 pm Post subject: PEP can hold multiple jobs…did anyone realise this? Hi,I was preparing to see what I would need for the PEP notification of annual salary today, when I noticed that PART III of the notification form stated new/additional employment. When I called MOM, they confirmed that a PEP holder can be employed by multiple companies, unlike an EP holder. They said there were no limits on the number of companies, or working hours. However if they have a problem with it, they will send you a letter asking you to fix whatever they see as a problem. I have not seen this discussed here previously so I thought I would bring it up and see if others were aware of this perk, and if so, what types of outside jobs they have held. For me it means I might consider lecturing one evening a week at a private school sometime."

"text": "\"US Military Careers Joining the Military Army Training Phase Restrictions Training Restrictions for Basic Training, OSUT, and AITShare Flip Pin Share Email•••By Rod Powers Updated January 11, 2018All of the military services restrict privileges and personal freedoms during basic training and job training. Below are the training/restriction requirements for U. S. Army personnel undergoing Initial Entry Training (IET) as required by TRADOC Reg 350-6. IET is the period of time from the first day of basic training, through job training, and ends when the soldier graduates from their job training and reports to their first permanent duty assignment (PDA). The Army has two different IET processes. The first process is where the recruit goes through basic training for nine weeks and then goes to a separate school called Advanced Individual Training, or AIT to learn their Army job. The second method (used mostly for combat jobs) is called One-Station-Unit-Training, or OSUT. This combines basic training and job training into one single course. When we discuss the training phases below, Phases I through III are for basic training, and the first nine weeks of OSUT, which is the basic training portion of OSUT. Phase IV begins on the first day of AIT (job school) or week 10 of OSUT. General Restrictions During Army Initial Entry Training The goal of IET is to transform civilians into technically and tactically competent soldiers who live by the Army's values and are prepared to take their place in the ranks of the Army."

"text": "\"Questions & Answers about Blindness and Vision Impairments in the Workplace and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)INTRODUCTIONThe Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which was amended by the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act of 2008 (\"\"Amendments Act\"\" or \"\"ADAAA\"\"), is a federal law that prohibits discrimination against qualified individuals with disabilities. Individuals with disabilities include those who have impairments that substantially limit a major life activity, have a record (or history) of a substantially limiting impairment, or are regarded as having a disability. [ 1]Title I of the ADA covers employment by private employers with 15 or more employees as well as state and local government employers. Section 501 of the Rehabilitation Act provides similar protections related to federal employment. In addition, most states have their own laws prohibiting employment discrimination on the basis of disability. Some of these state laws may apply to smaller employers and may provide protections in addition to those available under the ADA. [ 2]The U. S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) enforces the employment provisions of the ADA. This document, which is one of a series of question-and-answer documents addressing particular disabilities in the workplace, [3] explains how the ADA applies to job applicants and employees with vision impairments. In particular, this document explains:when an employer may ask an applicant or employee questions about his vision impairment and how it should treat voluntary disclosures;what types of reasonable accommodations employees with visual disabilities may need;how an employer should handle safety concerns about applicants and employees with visual disabilities; andhow an employer can ensure that no employee is harassed because of a visual disability or any other disability. GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT VISION IMPAIRMENTSEstimates vary as to the number of Americans who are blind and visually impaired."

"text": "\"Understanding Your Legal Liability as an Employer Filed under Office & HR. Your liability as an employer under various employment laws, including wage and hour law, payroll taxes, and anti-discrimination laws depends on various factors including whether your workers are classified as employees and the number of employees you have working for you. Once a business owner decides to hire workers, various federal and state laws come into play. If you decide to hire or lease employees or use independent contractors, it's extremely important that you understand the numerous federal and state laws that can affect your relationship. Generally, whether or not a business is subject to specific employment laws depends on how many employees that business has and for how long. There's a large array of federal and state laws and, in some states, it only takes one employee to make you subject to certain employment laws. Therefore, to ascertain your legal liability as an employer you must first have an understanding of how an employee is defined for these purposes. Warning Business owners often think that the way to get around all of the employment laws is to have no employees and instead to employ leased workers, temporary workers, or independent contractors. In theory, this can work, but how well it works in reality depends on what the worker actually does and how you structure your contracts. Who is Considered an Employee?"

"text": "Florida: Cell phone laws, legislation December 3, 2008 by editor 65 Comments Tweet Last updated: March 17, 2018Distracted driving news: Legislation seeking to dump Florida’s restriction on enforcement of its texting & driving law was approved by the House but died in the Senate. On March 1, the full House approved HB 33. With time running out on the 2018 session, however, Senate Appropriations Chairman Rob Bradley refused to let texting legislation appear before his panel. Opponents cited the risk of racial profiling by police, even though both House and Senate versions required police to track the racial balance of their traffic stops under a revised texting law. The failed primary enforcement plan enjoyed the backing of House Speaker Richard Corcoran. The support was seen as key as no distracted driving legislation found success in 2017. House Bill 33 from Reps. Emily Slosberg and Jackie Toledo sailed through all votes in the House. “ The data is overwhelming and the need to act is equally compelling,” the House speaker said. The current Florida texting law is limited to secondary enforcement, meaning another offense must be observed in order to stop and cite an offender."

"text": "\"Answers.com ® Wiki Answers ® Categories Relationships Family Parenting and Children Child Safety Flag Share In Child Safety , Children and the Law , New York What is the legal age a child can be left home alone in Tennessee? Answer by Daprophet1985 Confidence votes 75Legal Age There are very few states in the U. S. with legal minimum ages for children home alone, but many state agencies have published guidelines. Georgia, Illiniois, Maryland and Oregon are a few of the states with specific ages specified in their laws. 12 years of age appears to be the most common recommendation. Below in Related Links is an article entitled Home Alone Children Legal Age Limits which provides one guideline from a California agency representative who suggests that 8 year olds and over can be left at home for up to several hours (usually after school before a parent gets home from work). This site also provides a state by state comparison with references. The Tennessee citation referenced in this link (Tennessee Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges) states: \"\"There is no legal age for children to stay at home alone. Parents are advised to use their best judgment, keeping the child's maturity level and safety issues in mind. \"\" 52 people found this useful Was this answer useful?

"text": "Federal Tax Credit for the Elderly and Disabled Page Reviewed / Updated - May 2017Other Tax Credits for the Elderly Search for Financial Help for Care Free Help Finding Affordable Care Download More Info from the IRSTable of Contents Definition Discussion Qualifying Credit Limits How to File This information is accurate for the tax year 2016, which is filed in the calendar year 2017. Definition Tax Credits, such as the tax credit for the Elderly and Disabled, are credits applied to the taxes you owe. For instance, if you owe $3,000 in taxes and you have a credit for $500, then you only have to pay $2,500. The Tax Credit for the Elderly and Disabled is a credit for persons over 65 years of age or persons under 65 and disabled. Discussion While a tax credit is not a source of new funds or specifically funding for eldercare, it represents additional disposable income and can be used to reduce the overall cost of caring for an aging loved one. When combined with other options, it might make the difference between affording home care or assisted living or not having that option. This credit is applied to a tax filer’s return, therefore an aging parent who is claimed as a dependent on someone else’s tax return is not eligible. Elderly and Disabled Tax Credit vs. Dependent Care Credit For some families, depending on their individual tax situation, it may be advantageous to forego the Elderly and Disabled Tax Credit and have the elderly individual claimed as a dependent on the tax return of an adult child. This would allow the adult child to use the Dependent Care Credit. Worth noting though is that the Dependent Care Credit cannot be used for persons who reside in skilled nursing facilities or assisted living residences."

"text": "\"Benefits of the tax credit The child and dependent care credit is a tax break specifically for working people, says Matt Becker, a financial planner and founder of Mom and Dad Money. \"\" Child care is expensive, and the cost gives many parents pause about whether it's worth returning to the workforce,\"\" Becker says. \"\" But the child and dependent care credit can make it a little easier for parents to keep working without putting too much stress on their budget. \"\" He cites two major benefits: This is a tax credit, rather than a tax deduction. A deduction simply reduces the amount of income that you must pay tax on. A $1,000 deduction, for example, might reduce your tax bill by only $150 or $200. A tax credit, however, directly reduces your taxes, \"\"dollar for dollar.\"\" A $1,000 tax credit cuts your tax bill by $1,000. You can claim the credit regardless of your income.

"text": "Filing Your Return -> Disabilities -> Child Care Costs Income Tax Act s. 63Line 214 Child Care Expenses Child care costs are not claimed as a non-refundable tax credit, but as a deduction from income on line 214 of the personal tax return. A non-refundable tax credit is always at the lowest tax rate (except in Quebec), but a reduction of income would save tax at the taxpayer's marginal tax rate. In the Canadian Tax Calculator, child care costs are entered in the deductions area. The calculator does not check to ensure that the maximum allowable amount is not exceeded. It will provide a warning if the child care costs are being claimed by a higher income spouse. In most cases, child care expenses for an eligible child must be claimed by the parent with the lower net income for tax purposes. If the parents are separated and share custody, sometimes each parent may claim a portion of the child care costs. Where a medical doctor certifies in writing that the lower-income spouse is incapable of caring for the child due to a physical or mental infirmity, then the costs may be claimed by the higher income spouse. An eligible child is a child of you or your spouse or common-law partner , or a child who was dependent on you or your spouse or common-law partner, and whose net income in the year was less than or equal to the federal basic personal amount ($11,809 in 2018, $11,635 in 2017). The child must have been under 16 years of age at the beginning of the year, unless the child was mentally or physically infirm."

"text": "Potential income tax benefits for families with special needs children Disabled children can qualify for dependency exemption and other benefits regardless of age. BY THOMAS M. BRINKER JR., CPA/PFS, J. D. AND W. RICHARD SHERMAN, CPA, J. D. May 31, 2013Related TOPICSTax Individual Income Taxation As the number of children diagnosed with autism, Asperger’s syndrome, and other neurological disorders continues to skyrocket, the disruption it causes in the lives of all those concerned is unmistakable—as are the costs of providing care for the special needs child. As reported by the Autism and Developmental Disabilities Monitoring (ADDM) Network in March 2012, as many as 1 out of 88 children born today has an autism spectrum disorder or ASD. And a report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has estimated that rate is as high as 1 in 50. Other disabilities are also becoming more prevalent, according to the CDC. Between 1997–1999 and 2006–2008, there was an 18.2% increase in blindness/sight impairment among children age 3 to 17, a 9.1% increase in seizures, and a 24.7% increase in “other developmental delay” (which excludes autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and learning disabilities). Further complicating the situation, parents with special needs children are often unaware of possible tax benefits that are available and forgo hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars in potential tax deductions and credits. Michael A. O’Connor, an attorney who has written extensively on this topic, believes that 15% to 30% of families with a disabled child have one or more unclaimed tax benefits. Among these potential tax benefits are deductions or credits for the dependency exemption, medical expenses, special instruction, capital expenditures for medically required home improvements, impairment-related work expenditures, and the earned income tax credit."

"text": "\"Home » Managing Your Money What Is the Age Limit to Declare Dependents on Income Tax?by Jeff Franco J. D./M. A./M. B. A.; Updated July 27, 2017The Internal Revenue Service allows for a reduction in taxable income for each dependent you claim on a tax return. Although the tax code imposes age limitations on those you can claim as a dependent, exceptions exist. However, the age of a dependent is just one of the many requirements you must meet before you can take an exemption. Qualifying Child Taxpayers may claim all qualifying children as dependents on a tax return. A qualifying child can be a son or daughter, a stepchild, foster child, sibling, step-sibling and any descendant of them such as a grandchild. The child must be under the age of 19 at all times during the tax year and reside with you for more than six months. The IRS also requires that you provide at least half of the financial support for the child during the year. Providing free housing to a child is part of the financial support you provide. You must have priority over all other taxpayers who are eligible to claim the child as a dependent. Full-Time Student One of the exceptions to the age requirement of the qualifying child is if the child is a full-time student."

But what's their choice? Without it, they can't leave home to earn a living. The Internal Revenue Service has your back if you're in this boat. Taxpayers who pay for daycare expenses for their children or disabled adults may be eligible for a federal tax credit of up to 35 percent of what they spend, subject to certain limits. The Basic Rules You must have a dependent child or an adult dependent who cannot be left alone because he can't care for himself. You must also have earned income from a job or self-employment. The purpose of paying for the care must be to allow you to work, to look for work or to attend school full time. If you're married, your spouse must also be working, looking for work or attending school, so she's unable to stay home and care for your child or dependent herself. She must also have earned income."

In many cases, you can claim certain tax-cutting deductions and credits related to a dependent. The key tax breaks associated with a child are the child tax credit, the child and dependent care credit and the earned income tax credit. Even if these added tax credits don’t apply to your situation, a dependent named on your return can still trim your taxes."

"text": "Your child can be claimed as a dependent from the date of birth. Any child you're raising can be an income tax deduction. However, the Internal Revenue Service does have rules about this, including age restrictions. For starters, you have to get a Social Security number from the Social Security Administration for any child before she can be claimed. After that, you have to be able to prove the child's age and that you have the right to claim her as a dependent. Qualifying Age Usually, a child must be less than 19 years old during the entire year to be claimed as a dependent. Each dependent child entitles you to take $3,800 off of your gross income. You can also claim an additional withholding allowance for each child on your W-4 form at work. That reduces the amount of tax withheld so you immediately get the benefit of the tax deduction. If you've got a newborn, the baby qualifies immediately as a dependent."

The money you contribute to a dependent care account is not taxable, which means you'll pay less taxes than you would if this money is counted as taxable income. This section explains the kind of expenses that are reimbursable with a dependent care account and other important rules of the program. Please read it carefully. Although a reimbursement account is a great way to lower your taxes and save money for certain expenses, you will forfeit any funds left in your account if you don't claim them by the deadline. You can avoid this by following these simple steps: Be sure expenses qualify. Once funds have been deducted from your paycheck and credited to your account, you can only claim them if you incur an eligible dependent care expense. An expense is incurred on the date the service is provided, not when billed or paid. Estimate expenses conservatively. It's better to underestimate costs than overestimate."

Don’t forget about the people around you – your family! Spouses, children, aging parents – they’re all sources of potential tax deductions that can pump up your refund. Here are some of the most common family-related deductions that you may be able to take: Your Spouse The spouse or common-law partner amount: If you supported your spouse or common-law partner at any time during the year and his or her net income was less than $11,038, you can claim this amount (minus his or her income). If you’re also claiming the Family caregiver amount, his or her income must be less than $13,078. Support payments: Did you make support payments to your current or a former spouse or common-law partner during the past tax year? If so, you can claim the deductible portions of the support you paid on your tax return. Spousal RRSP deduction: As long as you have enough contribution room (see your Notice of Assessment from last year for your RRSP deduction limit), you can contribute to a spousal RRSP in lieu of or in addition to your own – giving you even more of a tax deduction and sheltering more of your income from tax. Your Kids Child-care expenses: Fees paid to a baby sitter, nursery school or day care center; they all count if you’ve had to pay for child care because you or your spouse was working or in school this past tax year. Generally the spouse with the lower net income (even if it’s zero income) has to claim these expenses."

A wartime veteran or their surviving spouse with limited income may be eligible to receive a non-service connected pension (this means that the need for care does not have to result from one’s military service). There are three levels of VA Pensions: Basic Pension / Improved Income – for healthy veterans over the age of 65 with low incomes Aid & Attendance – for veterans over the age of 65 that require assistance with their activities of daily living Housebound – for veterans with a disability rating of 100% that prevents them from leaving their home, but does not have to be related to their military service. The Aid & Attendance and Housebound pensions provide additional monthly income over and above the Basic Monthly pension. To be eligible for either of these pensions, one must also meet the requirements for the Basic Pension. Veterans Pensions Overview In 2018, qualifying veterans and their spouses could be eligible for a VA Pension of over $2,169 per month to help cover the costs of elder care assistance. The Aid and Attendance benefit is a monetary benefit which helps eligible veterans and their surviving spouses (or just the spouse in case of the veteran’s death) to pay for the assistance they need in everyday functioning (eating, bathing, dressing and medication management). Readers should know that the Aid and Attendance benefit is often referred to by other names. One will sometimes hear the names “improved pension”, “VA assisted living benefit” or “veterans elder care benefits”. These are various names for the same program, which, as mentioned before, is an additional benefit added to the basic VA pension."

Employees with young children or dependent relatives, who are considered “qualifying individuals,” can benefit from dependent care FSAs. Setting aside pre-tax dollars means you pay fewer taxes and increase your take-home pay by your tax savings. You save money on expenses that you are paying for out of your pocket. The amount you save depends on your tax bracket. For example, if you are in the 30 percent tax bracket, you can save $30 on every $100 spent on eligible expenses such as day care, after-school care, elder day care and much more.

O'Neil, Research Assistant You asked how much states spend on their foster care and adoption assistance programs. SUMMARYFoster care and adoption programs are funded by a wide array of federal, state, local, and private sources. States vary significantly both in the amounts and proportion of government funds they use to pay for their programs. For example, while the average mix is 51% federal, 37% state, and 12% local, Indiana ' s program used only 30% federal funds; North Carolina, by contrast used about 78%. This report describes the major funding streams and restrictions on how they can be used. Table 1 describes federal funding guidelines in general, while Table 2 provides a 50-state snapshot using data collected for state fiscal year 2002. DEDICATED FEDERAL CHILD WELFARE FUNDSTitles IV-E and IV-B of the Social Security Act authorize the largest federal programs dedicated for child welfare. Title IV-E, the largest funding stream, consists of the Foster Care and Adoption Assistance programs, which are open-ended entitlements, the Chafee Foster Care Independence Program, which is a capped entitlement; and a non-entitlement funding authorization for education and training vouchers to youth who have aged out of foster care. Title IV-B authorizes discretionary and capped entitlement funding to the states and consists of two sub-parts – Child Welfare Services and Promoting Safe and Stable Families. There are also several small discretionary grants targeted for child welfare, which are briefly discussed below."

Some changes take effect this year and others in 2015. Here’s what’s new: Children’s fitness amount (2014)The amount of children’s fitness expenses you may claim for each child has increased from $500 to $1,000. The increased credit is worth $75 1. What do you need to do? Not much, just hold onto your receipts for your children’s fitness expenses. When you complete your tax return you’ll be able to enter up to $1,000 (rather than up to $500). Family tax cut (2014)This new tax credit (which is frequently referred to as income splitting) is worth up to $2,000 for families where the parents are in different tax brackets.

Levy, CPAThe Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), known as OBAMACARE, has some significant implications for special needs families. While we are just beginning to see how far reaching this act is, I am going to limit my remarks to how this act specifically affects tax deductibility of medical expenses typically incurred by families with special needs. If you need assistance with understanding or accessing the insurance marketplace, I suggest you speak with a knowledgeable insurance agent. This article supersedes a similar article I wrote in February of 2011. Changes due to OBAMACARE are so noted. The information in this article is educational in nature and is not to be considered tax advice. Please contact a qualified tax professional to discuss how these concepts may or may not apply to your personal situation. Medical Expense Deductions The IRS code allows medical deductions per section 213:“The term `medical care,' as used in this subsection, shall include amounts paid for the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease, or for the purpose of affecting any structure or function of the body. ”This is a pretty broad definition of medical care. The nature of the IRS code is that it is refined by both revenue rulings and tax court cases, such that the phrase ‘any structure or function of the body’ includes both mental and physical functions."

Incapacity Benefit and Income Support paid on incapacity grounds are being phased out and most existing claimants will be re-assessed for ESA. Income Support can be paid on top of other money you have coming in (up to certain limits). The amount you get depends on things like how much money you have coming in, your age, health, disability and savings. You can claim Income Support if all of the following statements are true:you are aged at least 16 and are under state pension age (Gov.

Both of these credits have different rules that can affect your eligibility to claim a specific credit. These differences are shown in Table 1 below. TIP: You may be able to take the tuition and fees deduction for you, your spouse, or a dependent, instead of an education credit."

The formulas set out in Chapters 7 and 8 have been designed to cover a wide range of typical cases. There will be unusual or atypical cases, however, where the formulas generate results inconsistent with the support factors and objectives found in the Divorce Act and an appropriate result can only be achieved by departing from the formula. The term exceptions refers, under the Advisory Guidelines, to recognized categories of departures from the ranges of amounts and durations for spousal support under the formulas. Exceptions are the last step in a support determination in cases covered by formulas. The formulas provide two other opportunities, discussed above, to shape awards that are responsive to the exigencies of individual cases. First, the ranges for amount and duration provide considerable scope to adjust within those ranges to the particular facts of any case (Chapter 9). Second, restructuring provides a further means to push and pull amount and duration above and below the ranges generated by the formula (Chapter 10). Only if neither of these steps can accommodate the unusual facts of a specific case should it become necessary to resort to these exceptions."

Many experiments have been performed and much knowledge has been accumulated that people didn’t always know. For centuries, people based their beliefs on their interpretations of what they saw going on in the world around them without testing their ideas to determine the validity of these theories — in other words, they didn’t use the scientific method to arrive at answers to their questions. Rather, their conclusions were based on untested observations. Among these ideas, for centuries, since at least the time of Aristotle (4th Century BC), people (including scientists) believed that simple living organisms could come into being by spontaneous generation. This was the idea that non-living objects can give rise to living organisms . It was common “knowledge” that simple organisms like worms, beetles, frogs, amd salamanders could come from dust, mud, etc., and food left out, quickly “swarmed” with life. For example: Observation: Every year in the spring, the Nile River flooded areas of Egypt along the river, leaving behind nutrient-rich mud that enabled the people to grow that year’s crop of food. However, along with the muddy soil, large numbers of frogs appeared that weren’t around in drier times."

"text": "If you're buying a new car, you’ll need to think carefully about the type of fuel you choose. Growing concern about air quality in cities, together with changes to emissions regulations and engine design, mean that the right choice last time you changed your car may not be so right this time. The main choice is still between petrol or diesel but other, cleaner alternatives, particularly plug-in hybrid and electric vehicles are growing quickly in popularity. Climate change and air quality It's impossible to talk about fuel choice without considering the sometimes difficult to balance challenges of climate change and air quality in towns and cities. Cars contribute to climate change through their emissions of CO2. The amount of CO2 produced is directly related to the quantity of fossil fuel burnt, so better fuel economy = lower CO2 emissions. The exhaust from cars burning fossil fuels also contains pollutants like nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and particulate matter (soot) which are linked to asthma and other respiratory problems. The amount of pollution depends on the fuel and the age of the vehicle – petrol's cleaner than diesel and newer vehicles are cleaner than older ones. Euro standards Since 2001 diesel's better economy and lower CO2 emissions has been rewarded through CO2-based car tax, while the government has relied on increasingly stringent ‘Euro’ emissions standards to tackle exhaust pollution. Unfortunately, actual exhaust emissions in normal, 'real world' driving have turned out to be considerably worse than predicted by the official tests and Euro standard limits."

Each of the services have different age requirements to become a pilot or navigator. Becoming a military pilot is a highly competitive process and requires a candidate to be at the top of his/her game both physically and mentally. Achieving high standards on any entrance exam tests such as the Aviation Selection Test Battery, Physical Fitness Tests (PFT), as well as Officer Aptitude Rating, and even the ASVAB. Navy and Marine Corps To become a Naval or Marine Corps Aviator, you must be between the ages of 19 and 26 at the time you enter flight training. Adjustments (waivers) can be made up to 24 months for those with prior service, and up to 48 months for those already in the military at the time of application. To become a Naval/USMC aviator, you will have to pass the Aviation Selection Test Battery (ASTB ). It consists of five timed subsets: mathematics and verbal, mechanical comprehension, aviation and nautical, spatial perception, and a survey gauging interest in aviation. About 10,000 candidates sit for the exam each year. The Aviation Selection Test Battery (ASTB) is used by the U. S.

It is used to determine medical standards for different jobs, and to make sure that military members are medically qualified to perform the duties of that job, the military has developed a medical profile indicator, known as the physical profile serial system. The physical profile serial system is based primarily upon the function of body systems and their relation to military duties. The functions of the various organs, systems, and integral parts of the body are considered. Since the analysis of the individual’s medical, physical, and mental status plays an important role in assignment and welfare, the military takes great care in executing the functional grading. In developing the system, the functions have been considered under six factors designated “P–U–L–H–E–S.” Each of these letters stand for a specific medical area: (1) P — The \"\"P\"\" in \"\"P-U-L-H-E-S\"\" stands for \"\"Physical capacity or stamina.\"\""

"text": "Print Cite The skies over World War I-era Europe served as a brutal testing ground for manned aircraft. Most early fighters were flimsy and frail, and equipment failures and accidents often proved as deadly as enemy gunfire. Upon hopping into the cockpit, even the most skilled pilots had a life expectancy of mere weeks. Though limited by their primitive machines, these “Knights of the Sky” went on to achieve some of the war’s most extraordinary—and often downright suicidal—feats of heroism. Get the facts on six of the Great War’s most celebrated airborne daredevils. Manfred von Richthofen The British called him the “Red Knight”; the French, the “Diable Rouge” (the “Red Devil”); but German pilot Manfred von Richthofen is best remembered by the immortal sobriquet the “Red Baron.” Born into a family of Prussian nobles in 1892, Richthofen began World War I as a cavalry officer before making the switch to the German air service. He scored his first kill in September 1916, and went on to down an astonishing 79 more aircraft by April 1918—more than any other pilot during World War I. As his reputation grew, Richthofen painted his Fokker tri-plane a gaudy shade of red. The move earned the Baron his famous nickname, and his squadron became known as the “Flying Circus” for their mobility and their easily recognizable colors. A consummate tactician, Richthofen typically kept his squadron in a tight formation and employed superior numbers and surprise to overpower his enemies."

A mess or mess hall (also called a messdeck aboard ships) is an area where military personnel socialize, eat, and (in some cases) live. In some societies this military usage has extended to other disciplined services eateries such as civilian fire fighting and police forces. The root of mess is the Old French mes, \"\"portion of food\"\" (cf. modern French mets ), drawn from the Latin verb mittere, meaning \"\"to send\"\" and \"\"to put\"\" (cf. modern French mettre ), the original sense being \"\"a course of a meal put on the table\"\"; cfr. also the modern Italian portata with the same meaning, past participle of portare, to bring. This sense of mess, which appeared in English in the 13th century, was often used for cooked or liquid dishes in particular, as in the \"\" mess of pottage \"\" (porridge or soup).

"text": "Measurement of Ventilatory Function A great deal can be learned about the mechanical properties of the lungs from measurements of forced maximal expiration and inspiration. The spirometer (developed in 1846 by Hutchinson) is used to measure ventilatory function (dynamic lung volumes and maximal flow rates). Spirometry Conventionally, a spirometer is a device used to measure timed expired and inspired volumes, and from these we can calculate how effectively and how quickly the lungs can be emptied and filled. The measurements that are usually made are as follows: VC (vital capacity) is the maximum volume of air which can be exhaled or inspired during either a forced (FVC) or a slow (VC) manoeuvre FEV1 (forced expired volume in one second) is the volume expired in the first second of maximal expiration after a maximal inspiration and is a useful measure of how quickly full lungs can be emptied FEV1/VC is the FEV1 expressed as a percentage of the VC or FVC (whichever volume is larger) and gives a clinically useful index of airflow limitation FEF25-75% is the average expired flow over the middle half of the FVC manoeuvre and is regarded as a more sensitive measure of small airways narrowing than FEV1. Unfortunately FEF25-75% has a wide range of normality, is less reproducible than FEV1, and is difficult to interpret if the VC (or FVC) is reduced or increased PEF (peak expiratory flow) is the maximal expiratory flow rate achieved and this occurs very early in the forced expiratory manoeuvre. Miller 1996 [1]) shows a normal spirogram showing the measurements of forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expired volume in one second (FEV1) and forced expiratory flow over the middle half of the FVC (FEF25-75%). Static lung volume and capacity Static Lung volume tests evaluate air movement within the pulmonary tract with no time limitations. Mc Ardle et al. 2000) [3] shows the various static lung volume measurements that can be made. TV - Tidal Volume - Volume inspired or expired per breath Average values Male 600m L, Female 500m LIRV - Inspiratory Reserve Volume - Maximum inspiration at end of tidal inspiration Average values Male 3L, Female 1.9LERV - Expiratory Reserve Volume - Maximum expiration at end of tidal expiration Average values Male 1.2L, Female 800m LTLC - Total Lung Capacity - Volume in lungs after maximal inspiration Average values Male 6L, Female 4.2LRLV - Residual Lung Volume - Volume in lungs after maximum expiration Average values Male 1.2L, Female 1LFVC - Forced Vital Capacity - Maximum volume expired after maximum inspiration Average values Male 4.8L, Female 3.2LIC - Inspiratory Capacity - Maximum volume inspired following tidal expiration Average values Male 3.6L, Female 2.4LFRC - Functional Residual Capacity - Volume in lungs after tidal expiration Average values Male 2.4L, Female 1.8LBreathing volumes The volume of air breathed in and out can be measured using a spirometer."

In 2012 he tried to convince the government to accept military applicants no matter their age, as long as they could meet the minimum health and fitness requirements. The House said no. Every branch of the military has age limits, from the Coast Guard to the National Guard, and most of them come to a halt before age 35. However, there are ways to enter the military when you're 35 or older. Speak to a recruiter of the branch you're interested in for the most up-to-date guidelines and hidden loopholes, as rules change all the time. Not All Branches Are the Same When it comes to basic requirements, not all branches of the military are the same. The Air Force typically closes the door to recruits at age 39 The Marines close it at 28, and both the Army and Navy limit the maximum age to 34. The Coast Guard has both doors open to applicants as old as 39, according to Military.com."

"text": "Home »Job Descriptions »More Job Descriptions How to Join the Military After Age Thirty-Five By Tony Guerra; Updated July 05, 2017Sandy Huffaker/Getty Images News/Getty Images Traditionally, most people join the U. S. military in their late teens or early to mid-twenties. As of 2013, the average enlistment age for people joining the Army was 20.7 years. Each of the four military service branches and the Coast Guard also have their own maximum age standards for enlistment or officer commissioning. So while the maximum military enlistment age set by Congress is 42 years, if you're 35 or older you might have a tougher time trying to enlist. Maximum Enlistment Ages The military services and the Coast Guard are allowed by Congress to set their own particular maximum enlistment and officer commissioning ages. The Air Force has the lowest maximum enlistment age at 27 years, though officer maximum commissioning age varies by career field. The Navy's maximum enlistment age is 34 years, with varying officer commissioning ages as well. The Marine Corps sets its maximum enlistment and officer commissioning age at 28 years, though all the services are allowed to grant age waivers. Age Waiver Requests Though you technically can join the military up to age 42, if you're 35 or over you'll need an age waiver if you've never been in the military before. Normally, military recruiters prepare and forward age waiver requests, with a yes-or-no recommendation for prospective recruits exceeding enlistment or commissioning age limits."

[ 1] It is a bipartisan bill that would provide a direct road to U. S. citizenship for people who are either undocumented, have DACA or temporary protected status (TPS), and who graduate from U. S. high schools and attend college, enter the workforce, or enlist in the military. Through the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, announced by President Barack Obama on June 15, 2012, [2] some of these young people received temporary permission to stay in the U. S., as well as employment authorization, for two-year periods, and they could apply to renew that permission and work authorization for additional two-year periods. DACA hasn’t just transformed the lives of young immigrants in the U. S.—it has improved our economy and strengthened our communities. [ 3] For hundreds of thousands of immigrant youth in our communities, it has opened the door to opportunities to achieve their full potential. [ 4]However, DACA recipients are still without a road to lawful permanent resident (LPR) status or U. S. citizenship. Meanwhile, on September 5, 2017, the Trump administration announced that it is ending the program and that October 5, 2017, would be the last day that U. S. Citizenship and Immigration Services would accept any applications for DACA. This has left people who either still have DACA or whose DACA has expired in limbo with respect to their future in the only country they’ve known as home since they were children. The Dream Act of 2017, as introduced, is a strong bill that includes a path to U. S. citizenship. In its various iterations, the Dream Act has long enjoyed bipartisan support, and an overwhelming majority of Americans agree it’s the right thing to do. ["

The Visa allows travel to the US but does not guarantee admission to the country, which is determined by the immigration official at the port of entry. There are a range of different Visas available, essentially determined by the purpose of your intended travel. You must complete the applications thoroughly and accurately.

By utilizing banks that have teen programs, parents are able to help their child to establish a banking and a credit history while still under their roof. This way, should any problems arise, the parent is there to guide and direct the teen towards making a sound financial decision before managing a college checking account on their own. Parents are able to monitor the bank accounts and have the ability to set ATM limits while allowing their teen more and more freedom to make decisions. By opening a checking account for teens, parents are setting their child on the right financial path. There are a few banks with special programs specifically aimed at teen banking. Here are a few of them as well as their individual criteria for accounts: Wells Fargo Teens from the ages 13 to 17 have the ability to open a teen checking account as long as a parent co-signs the account.

"text": "YOUR GUIDE TO Roth IRA INFORMATION & RESOURCESRoth IRA Accounts for Self-employed Persons Being self-employed gives you the unique freedom to control how much money you make. At the same time, it is also entirely up to you to determine how to save and plan for your retirement. While many employed persons invest in individual retirement accounts, many individuals also have company sponsored 401 (k) plans. Since you ultimately work for yourself, there is no group retirement program you can invest in like a 401 (k). A Roth IRA sits well with a self-employed person's retirement plan, and it also makes the most sense for you when you sell your business after you retire so that you can save money on taxes. Roth Benefits for Self-Employment An IRA is a type of investment account in which you can utilize stocks, bonds and mutual funds to help build a nest egg for retirement. Although the features might seem similar to that of a 401 (k) account, these kinds of plans are unique in that the individual investors have full control over them. This is good news if you are self-employed, since you are already accustomed to control other financial aspects of your life. Self-employed individuals have the option of opening either a traditional IRA, or a Roth version. The contributions you make to a traditional IRA are tax deductible every year, but you will have to pay the taxes on the income when you cash out the account during retirement."

"text": "\"Do you feel like you don’t have enough money to save for emergencies and also save for retirement? If you keep that money in your bank account, it's easily accessible if you suddenly need a pile of cash to fix your car, get a new air conditioner or deal with unemployment. But if you put it in your retirement account, you can't touch it until you reach retirement age. Good news: An often-overlooked feature of the Roth IRA could solve your problem. Subject to income limits, you can move as much as $5,500 from your emergency fund into a Roth IRA. If you’re married, you and your spouse can each contribute $5,500, for a total of $11,000. To see if you qualify for a Roth IRA, check out this Roth IRA calculator . You can withdraw contributions anytime; it’s only a Roth’s investment earnings that must remain in your account until you’re 59.5 if you want to avoid paying a 10% penalty. Roth IRAs offer this flexibility since you've already paid tax on your contributions, unlike traditional IRA contributions, on which you haven't paid taxes yet. Don’t miss out on making this year’s contribution - it’s an opportunity you’ll never get back."

Retirement Saving for Retirement Social Security Taxes By Rob Williams February 20, 2018After you retire, you may discover that you want to return to work—for an extra stream of income, or for the benefits of activity and a second career. Whatever the reason, it’s helpful to plan ahead, because your Social Security benefits, health insurance and tax situation may be affected. To help you decide whether returning to work would benefit you, here are answers to frequently asked questions we hear from clients: What financial issues should I consider if I return to work? Going back to work may bring in more income, but it may also involve new expenses, including transportation, food or business attire. Your income will be subject to income and payroll taxes, and combined with your existing income, may change your tax situation. Keep in mind, also, that earned income may also affect your Social Security benefits, as well as how much is taxed. If you want a clear idea of how going back to work might affect your finances, crunch the numbers and do some “what-if” planning. Don’t hesitate to get help from a financial planner and tax professional to help with the more complex tax and retirement benefit implications. Will my Social Security benefits be reduced if I return to work?"

"text": "\"Home » Roll Over IRA or 401k Can I Buy An Annuity With My IRA or 401k? Yes, you can move your IRA or 401k to an annuity tax-free!Written by Hersh Stern Updated Thursday, March 8, 2018Q. Is it possible to roll over my retirement savings, such as my 401k, IRA, or 403 (b) accounts into an annuity without paying taxes? A. You can roll over your IRA, 401 (k), 403 (b), or lump sum pension payment into an annuity tax-free. Annuities funded with an IRA or 401 (k) rollover are \"\"qualified\"\" plans, enabling an insurance company to create an \"\"IRA annuity\"\", into which you can deposit your retirement funds directly. Additionally, you can have your employer roll over your 401 (k) funds into an annuity without withholding any taxes since no mandatory withholding requirements pertain to funds directly transferred into an annuity by an employer. Q. If I decide to roll over my IRA, 401 (k), or lump sum pension payment into an annuity, will I be hit with a distribution tax? A. NO. The reason you're permitted to roll over these payments into an annuity tax-free is because when you buy an annuity with IRA or 401k money the first thing the insurance company does is create an IRA holding account to receive your transferred funds. So really buying an annuity with IRA money is the same as moving your money from its current IRA or 401k trustee to another IRA trustee. This kind of transaction is considered a \"\"direct transfer\"\" or a \"\"direct rollover\"\" which is tax-free."

However, the age to enlist is not black and white. In fact, it is quite grey with different rules, regulations, and waivers to be accepted for various jobs at a wide range of ages. The federal law that can be manipulated in a case by case basis states that the minimum age for enlistment in the United States military is 17 (with parental consent) and 18 (without parental consent). The maximum age is 35. However, Department of Defense policy allows the individual services to specify the maximum age of enlistment based upon their unique requirements. The Air Force tends to have an older upper limit for enlistment, whereas the Marine Corps' cutoff age is younger than the other branches of the service. Each branch of the military has set maximum ages for those without any prior service enlistment. For those with prior enlistment, the circumstances will vary significantly case by case, so it is best to check with the branch you want to reenlist into to find out your eligibility. The individual services have set the following maximum ages for non-prior service enlistment: Active Duty None-Prior Service Army: 35 (must ship to basic training prior to 35th birthday."

The acronym stands for “Reserve Officers’ Training Corps,” and its goal is to train college students for future service in branches of the U. S. military; the Army, Air Force, and Navy each have their own ROTC programs. Students interested in U. S. Armed Forces service at an early age can also gain exposure to the rigors of military training through JROTC (Junior ROTC) programs offered at the high school level. The JROTC and ROTC programs share a point of origin: the National Defense Act of 1916. The passage of this legislation united military training resources under a single federal umbrella. This allowed high schools and colleges to obtain military training instructors and supply funding from a single ROTC organization. Title 10 Section 2031 of the U. S. Code describes how JROTC programs provide students with at least three years of military instruction, along with access to uniforms, academic materials, and instructors who have served as U. S. Armed Forces officers. According to numbers published by the U. S. Army, over 274,000 high school students serve as JROTC cadets. Once students reach college, they can explore specific military branches by enrolling in ROTC programs provided by the Army, Navy, or Air Force. While the U. S. Coast Guard does not have an ROTC initiative, interested students can explore a similar training program, the College Student Pre-Commissioning Initiative (CSPI)."

ROYAL ENGINEERS Mon Oct 04, 2010 6:52 pm James Oakman was born in the Parish of St. Leonard's, Hastings, Sussex, in the year 1857. Prior to joining the Army he was a painter by trade. James Oakman enlisted as a Sapper (Regimental Number 13496) in the Royal Engineers on the 12th of May 1876 at Aldershot in Hampshire. At 10:00 a.m. on the following day he took the oath of attestation, which was duly approved by Major A. G. Durnford, R. E. At the time of Oakman's enlistment the British Army was operating under the Army Reserve Act of 1867 which required a new recruit to be attested for a term of 12 years; the first eight years in Army Service, and the remaining four years in the 1st Class of the Reserve. What this meant was that as a member of the 1st Class Reserve Oakman would be liable for recall to the Colours and for active service overseas. This was distinct from the Second Reserve whose members served on home duties only and consisted of regulars completing their second term of service. It also consisted of present and future pensioners."

The Ministry of Defence said the age limit for individuals with specific qualifications or experience has been raised from 45 to 50, while the maximum age for ex-regular soldiers joining was increased earlier this year from 43 to 52. An Mo D spokeswoman said: \"\"We make no apology for revising the age requirements for ex-regular soldiers to join the Reserves and share their wealth of knowledge and expertise. All recruits have to meet strict fitness requirements, or could face discharge. \"\" The upper age limit for ex-regular soldiers to join was increased in May to \"\"better reflect demographics and health of the population\"\" and widen the recruitment pool, the Mo D said. The change comes as the Army's plan to cut regular troops and replace them with reservists came under fire yesterday, after it was revealed the size of the part-time force increased by just 20 in the last 12 months. Figures showed the trained strength of the volunteer Army Reserve rose from 19,290 in October last year to 19,310 a year later. Tory MP John Baron said the plans to replace 20,000 regular troops with 30,000 reservists were a \"\"shambles\"\" and shadow defence secretary Vernon Coaker warned the forces could be left with a \"\"dangerous\"\" gap.

"text": "\"Napoleon as a Military Commander: the Limitations of Genius Peter J. Dean BA (Hons) Dip Ed. Napoleon was one of the greatest military minds in the history of warfare. He expanded the conquests of France from her revolutionary borders to that of an Empire that stretched from Spain to the steppes of Russia. Napoleon's genius lay not in revolutionizing of warfare itself, but in the refinement of existing means. He did not propose any drastic changes in tactics nor invent a new method of waging warfare, instead he excelled at the tactical handling of the armies of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Napoleon established himself as a great leader of men during the revolutionary period with the siege of Toulon and his triumphs in Italy in 1796. These talents were refined and reached their height during the battles of Ulm, Austerlitz and Jena in the period of 1805-1806. Towards the end of the Empire the weaknesses of Napoleon as a military commander became more evident. His insistence on the micro management of the army and the awarding of Marshal batons to those who excelled under his leadership, but who possessed no great talent for individual command, worked to his determent. The strategic failures of the decisions to invade Spain and Russia and the inability to keep the other major European powers divided proved disastrous."

About half (or slightly less) of Second Lieutenants make it this far. Call it 48% to make the numbers round. Only one out of four Majors (12% of the original group) are promoted to Lieutenant Colonel by age 40. Half of the Majors retire around that time at half pay. The remaining one quarter serve out their careers as Majors, and are promoted to Lieutenant Colonel around age 50, shortly before retirement, for purposes of calculating their pensions. This is a form of \"\"social promotion. \"\" Half of the Lieutenant Colonels (6% of the total) are promoted \"\"naturally\"\" to Colonel by age 45; the remainder, at the end of their careers. Half of the Age-45 Colonels are promoted to General (3% of the Second Lieutenants)."

You can join some branches of the United States military at the age of 38 years but not others. The Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps and Coast Guard each has its own minimum and maximum age requirements for enlistees, including for new recruits in the active-duty ranks, the Reserves and the National Guard. Eligible The Army offers the most opportunity for older recruits. The Army has a maximum age for enlistment of 42 years for active-duty recruits, making it the only one of the branches to take new enlistees who are older than 34 years old. The Army Reserve accepts new soldiers who are 40 years old or younger. Other opportunities for enlistment if you are 38 years old include the Navy Reserve, which has a maximum entrance age of 39 years; the Air Force National Guard, which has a maximum entrance age of 40 years; and the Coast Guard Reserve, which has a maximum entrance age of 39 years. Ineligible The Marine Corps is the only branch of the military that you are ineligible to join in any capacity at the age of 38 years. The Marines have the most strict age limits among the branches, requiring that new recruits in either the active-duty or Marine Reserve be no more than 29 years old. You also cannot enlist in the active-duty Navy, which has a maximum entrance age of 34 years, or the active-duty Air Force and Coast Guard, which have a maximum entrance age of 27 years."

DISCLAIMER This information is most relevant to those interested in active duty; different rules apply for Reserves and National Guard Officer Candidates. Bottom line up front: the first and second true steps to starting the OCS application process are Google and research. If your first stop is r/army weekly question board...you are not ready to Officer Step 1. Use the search bar. Or Google - because it will take you to OCS specific sites and boards where people can answer even the most mundane and detailed questions like what the role of an assistant S-3 is within a FA battalion stationed at Ft.

The Continental Congress on November 10, 1775, authorized Marines as part of the Continental military forces, but they were disbanded after the Revolution. An Act of Congress, dated July 11, 1798, established the Marine Corps. 1Reference is made in the Act to the employment of Marines in the Navy in the following words: \"\"The President of the United States may detach and appoint such of the officers of this Marine Corps to act on board the frigates and any of the armed vessels . . . in the service of the United States.\"\" The Marine Corps was charged in the Act with other duties as follows: \"\"The Marine Corps . . . shall, at any time, be liable to do duty in the forts and garrisons in the United States, on the seacoast, or any other duty on shore, as the President, at his discretion, shall direct. \"\" Nowhere in the Act is the Marine Corps described as part of the Navy, or of the Army. The working of the Act led to much argument for many years as to the legal status of the Marine Corps with respect to the other armed services of the Federal Government. An Act of COngress, dated June 30, 1834, 2 clarified the matter somewhat, but the only references to the Navy or the Navy Department in that Act are found in Section 2, \"\"that said Corps shall at all times be subject to and under the laws and regulations . . ."

"text": "\"News Air Force Raises Enlistee Age Limit From 27 to 39Stars and Stripes By Chris Carroll WASHINGTON — Thanks to a new Air Force policy announced Tuesday, enlisted recruits can now experience the joys of basic training in their late 30s. The Air Force raised the maximum age for enlisted accession from 27 to 39, meaning it may now be the best choice for those who feel the call to military service later in life. The maximum age for Army enlisted recruits is 35, while the Navy and Marines cap recruit ages at 34 and 28, respectively. Under federal law, the oldest recruit any military branch can enlist is 42, although each service sets its own policy within that limit. Annette Crawford, a spokeswoman for the Air Force Recruiting Service at Joint Base San Antonio-Randolph, Texas, said officials would be watching to see whether the aches and pains of approaching middle age are too much for older recruits. \"\" With the change, if we see a higher initial training attrition or increased physical injuries ... the Air Force recruiting commander can set a more restrictive age if necessary,\"\" she said. The increased maximum age is for all Air Force enlisted occupations rather than being targeted at increasing accessions in certain areas, she said. The new policy comes at a time of a declining defense budget, a shrinking military and falling recruiting goals, however. From 2009 to 2013, the number of recruits dropped from nearly 32,000 to just over 26,000. While recruiting goals for 2014 are still being finalized, they’re likely to fall again."

It was authorized by the U. S. Congress and signed into law by President Franklin D. Roosevelt on 30 July 1942, but the Marine Corps delayed the formation of the WR until 13 February 1943. The law provided that members of the WR may be commissioned or enlisted in such ranks and ratings equal to the regular Marine Corps, and was effective for the duration of the war plus six months. Its purpose was to release officers and men for combat and to replace them with women in shore stations. Ruth Cheney Streeter was appointed the first director of the WR. She was sworn in with the rank of major and later was promoted to a full colonel. The WR did not have an official nickname, as did the other World War II women's military services, although many unofficial and uncomplimentary nicknames were used to describe the women. Young women were eager to serve in the military during WW II, and the Marine Corps wanted only the best. The overall qualifications for women who wished to volunteer for the WR were stringent. The age requirement for officer candidates was between 20 and 49, and a candidate had to be a college graduate or have a combination of two years of college and two years of work experience."

Seventy years later, people still have heated opinions about it. Wayne's lack of service has been written about more extensively than Rogers', but both are perennial topics of speculation, justification, and scorn. A notable contemporary among the actors who enlisted was Gene Autry, who—like Rogers and Wayne—was a Western star under contact to Republic Pictures. Autry was four years older than Rogers and the same age as Wayne. Autry in the service, still singing Autry, in a WWII-era interview that is quoted in Charles K. Wolfe and James E. Akenson's book Country Music Goes to War, said: I think the He-men in the movies belong in the Army, Marine, Navy or Air Corps.

( Photo Credit: Staff Sgt. Jacob N.

An All Army Activities message, or ALARACT, dated Nov. 8, spelled out the changes to retention control points. The changes, which became effective Nov. 1, increase RCPs for E-6s and above by as many as three years in some cases. The ALARACT also changes the maximum age for enlisted Soldiers to 62 years. The increase in RCP -- called \"\"high year of tenure\"\" in the Air Force and Navy -- is a force-shaping measure meant to allow experienced noncommissioned officers to stay in the Army longer. \"\" This is not designed to address any specific shortage,\"\" said Master Sgt. Patrick Johnson, retention operations NCO with Army G-1 at the Pentagon. \"\" Rather, it is to provide an avenue for our experienced NCOs to stay in longer if they wish, and to stabilize the force longer."

Many parents, religious leaders, and teachers groups saw his draft as a positive thing. Despite being offered the chance to enlist in Special Services to entertain the troops and live in priority housing, Presley decided to serve as a regular soldier. This earned him the respect of many of his fellow soldiers and people back home who had previously viewed him in a negative light. During his service, Presley's life was affected in many ways, beginning with the death of his mother. Not long before he was to be stationed in Germany, [1] Gladys Presley died of a heart attack brought on by acute hepatitis and cirrhosis at age 46."

Prior to that, she had been ruled by the Mamluks, a dynasty of slave warriors, who had themselves seized control in 1250. The Ottoman conquest had not seen the destruction of the Mamluks, who had retained control of large parts of the country within the new Ottoman system. By the start of the eighteenth century, the Mamluks had regained most of their former power. The Mamluks were not a unified force. Different Mumluk households fought for control over Egypt, and even when the Qazdagli faction was victorious (by about 1765), the fighting did not stop. Finally, in 1775, the winner of a particularly bitter conflict died, and the Mamluks descended into chaos. The followers of the two factions split into two main factions, that themselves each had at least two leaders. By 1778 the faction that included Ibrahim Bey and Murad Bey was victorious, at which point they then started fighting between themselves. Over the next few years they were constantly making and breaking peace agreements, before finally coming to a more permanent understanding in 1785."

Army Rangers By Marshall Moore; Updated October 04, 2017Army Ranger students learning proper patrol techniques Soldiers in the United States Army's 75th Ranger Regiment are some of the finest combat troops the service has to offer. In order to become an Army Ranger, soldiers must be in excellent physical condition, intelligent and be exceptionally qualified within their military occupational specialty. In addition to these qualifications, Army Rangers must meet certain basic age criteria in order to be considered for selection and assignment. Basic Age Requirements Army Ranger in camouflage during training There are technically no specific age requirements for soldiers seeking to become Army Rangers. Thus, the effective age limits are the same as those required to join the Army in the first place. Applicants must be at least 17 years old (or 18 without parental permission) and no older than 41 years old. While these are the minimum and maximum ages, however, keep in mind the Army Rangers must be both extremely qualified in their job field and in excellent physical fitness [Reference 2]. Thus, the odds of an 18-year-old with little Army experience being accepted into the 75th Ranger Regiment are slim to none. In the same vein, a 40-year-old applicant whose best athletic days have passed him by is just as likely to be passed over. Officer Age Requirements U. S. Army Ranger rappels down tower The Rangers do not put an age limit on officers looking to join the regiment. However, they must be ranked between first lieutenant and major (O-2 to O-4)."

"text": "US Military Careers Joining the Military Age Limits Within Military Service Branches Maximum Age To Join Military In Each Branch of Service Share Flip Pin Share Email•••By Stew Smith Updated June 23, 2017Every branch of service has a maximum age limit to join the military. However, the age to enlist is not black and white. In fact, it is quite grey with different rules, regulations, and waivers to be accepted for various jobs at a wide range of ages. The federal law that can be manipulated in a case by case basis states that the minimum age for enlistment in the United States military is 17 (with parental consent) and 18 (without parental consent). The maximum age is 35. However, Department of Defense policy allows the individual services to specify the maximum age of enlistment based upon their unique requirements. The Air Force tends to have an older upper limit for enlistment, whereas the Marine Corps' cutoff age is younger than the other branches of the service. Each branch of the military has set maximum ages for those without any prior service enlistment. For those with prior enlistment, the circumstances will vary significantly case by case, so it is best to check with the branch you want to reenlist into to find out your eligibility. The individual services have set the following maximum ages for non-prior service enlistment: Active Duty None-Prior Service Army: 35 (must ship to basic training prior to 35th birthday."

Keystone/Hulton Archive/Getty Imagesby Patricia Daniels, Contributing History Writer Updated April 07, 2017Who Was Jackie Robinson? On April 15, 1947, Jackie Robinson made history when he stepped onto the Brooklyn Dodgers' Ebbets Field as the first African American to play in a Major League Baseball game. The controversial decision to put a black man on a major league team prompted a barrage of criticism and initially led to Robinson's mistreatment by fans and fellow players alike. Robinson endured that discrimination and rose above it, going on to win Rookie of the Year in 1947 as well as the National League MVP Award in 1949. Hailed as a civil rights pioneer, Robinson was posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Robinson was also the first African-American inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame. Dates: January 31, 1919 -- October 24, 1972Also Known As: Jack Roosevelt Robinson Childhood in Georgia Jackie Robinson was the fifth child born to sharecropper parents Jerry Robinson and Mallie Mc Griff Robinson in Cairo, Georgia.

"text": "The beats of battle: Images of Army drummer boys endure Story by Elizabeth M. Collins, Soldiers Live An older Soldier of the 31st Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry instructs younger drummers during the Civil War. According to Glenn Williams, a senior historian at the U. S. Army Center for Military History, the average age for a drummer in the Civil War was around 18, and by 1864, the Union Army had forbidden the recruitment of boys under the age of 16, although there were a number of notable exceptions. Williams said that during the 18th and 19th centuries, the term boy often meant apprentice, and that many drummer boys were just that to older Army musicians and officers. Their duties could include acting as servants to the officers or as assistants to the unit surgeons. ( Photo courtesy of the U. S. Army Heritage and Education Center)Pa rum pum pum pum. The sound, or something similar, echoed through Army camps and battles from before the American Revolution, from the days of the first colonial militias, from the armies of the old country, from time immemorial until the Civil War. The various beats – about 40 according to Glenn Williams, a senior historian at the U. S. Army Center of Military History – signaled everything from chow time to formation to pay to time to charge the enemy. Basically, Williams explained, drummers and other musicians like fifers and buglers were the “radio-telephone operators” of their day. For much of military history, this was the most effective way for commanders to relay their orders to hundreds or even thousands of troops on the battlefield. “The importance of the drummer was transmitting orders and also to regulate camp duties and to help with morale,” Williams said. “"

However, you must not forget that your learners permit is not a drivers license and it comes with a number of learner's permit restrictions. One of the main Oregon permit restrictions is that you are not allowed to drive alone and whenever you are behind the wheel, you must have another licensed driver seated next to you. In addition to this, drivers who are under the age of 18 are subject to the Oregon graduated license restrictions and requirements. Many drivers who just got received their first Oregon drivers permit wonder why there is a need for these permit restrictions? The answer to this question is very simple - the Oregon Department of Motor Vehicles wants to make sure that you don't hurt yourself or anyone else while you are acquiring the essential driving experience. Driving is a skill you can't learn in the classroom, it's a complex process that requires you to do multiple tasks at once. Take entering a highway as an example. While entering a highway, you must keep in sight traffic on the acceleration lane in front of you and behind you. At the same time, you are to watch traffic on the highway."

[ 2] According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration alcohol-related crashes cause approximately $37 billion in damages annually. [ 3] DUI and alcohol-related crashes produce an estimated $45 billion in damages every year. Between attorney fees, fines, court fees, ignition interlock devices, and DMV fees a DUI charge could cost thousands to tens of thousands of dollars. [ 4]With alcohol consumption, a drunk driver 's level of intoxication is typically determined by a measurement of blood alcohol content or BAC; but this can also be expressed as a breath test measurement, often referred to as a Br AC."

"text": "FAQAnswers to Common Teen Driving Questions What is Graduated Driver License (GDL)? GDL are laws that support a three-stage driver licensing system to phase in young beginners to full driving privileges. It helps teens hone their driving skills during the first year of licensure by reducing exposure to high-risk situations such as carrying teen passengers and driving at night. The three stages are: supervised learning (instruction permit) phase; intermediate (provisional license) phase that limits unsupervised driving in high risk situations; full licensure phase. Why does GDL apply only to teens? Minnesota teen drivers are overrepresented in traffic crashes due to inexperience, immaturity, distractions, night-time driving, speeding, and seat belt non use. Young drivers tend to overestimate their own driving abilities, and at the same time, underestimate the dangers on the road. Teens are more likely than older drivers to take risks such as speeding, and because they are inexperienced behind the wheel. Teens are much less able to cope with hazardous driving situations. In-vehicle distractions, especially teen passengers, can increase the risk of crash by distracting the driver and by creating peer pressure to take more risks behind the wheel."

"text": "Location: DRUNK DRIVING; Scope: Connecticut laws/regulations; Court Cases; Background;July 17, 20122012-R-0279CONNECTICUT DUI LAWBy: Paul Frisman, Principal Analyst You asked about Connecticut laws on driving under the influence (DUI) and related offenses. This report updates OLR Report 2011-R- 0319. SUMMARYConnecticut ' s DUI law consists primarily of two statutes, CGS §§ 14-227a and -227b. The first prohibits a person from driving (1) while “under the influence” of alcohol or drugs or (2) with an “elevated” blood alcohol content (BAC). A person is under the influence if his ability to drive is affected to an appreciable degree. The maximum allowable BAC depends on the driver ' s age and the type of vehicle he or she is operating. Under the second statute, CGS § 14-227b, motorists implicitly consent to be tested for drugs or alcohol when they drive. The law establishes administrative license suspension procedures for drivers who refuse to submit to a test or whose test results indicate an elevated BAC. ( These provisions are called “implied consent” and “administrative per se ,” respectively. ) Drivers over age 21 have an elevated BAC if it is found to be .08% or more."

"text": "\"Driving test age rise considered for teenagers11 October 2013Share Learners can currently take a driving test aged 17Teenagers could have to wait a year longer than currently before they are allowed to take their driving test. The government is considering issuing only 12-month probationary licences at the age of 18 in a bid to cut accidents involving young motorists. New drivers would also face a curfew between 22:00 and 05:00 unless a passenger aged over 30 was in the car. Ministers are due to publish a Green Paper this year after considering the Transport Research Laboratory's report. It recommends a one-year \"\"learner stage\"\" beginning at 17, during which drivers would have to total at least 100 hours of daytime and 20 hours of night-time practice under supervision. Learners can then take their test at 18 and, if they pass, will get a probationary licence and have to display a green \"\"P\"\" plate. During this stage, drivers will face the curfew and all those under 30 will be banned from carrying any passengers also under 30. Other proposals under consideration for young drivers are a ban on all mobile phone use, including hands-free phones, and a lower alcohol limit. After the 12-month probationary period, drivers will automatically graduate to a full licence and unrestricted driving. Statistics show that more than a fifth of deaths on British roads in 2011 involved drivers aged 17-24."

Prior DUI charge/conviction Accident and/or injuries CONTINUEDriving under influence (DUI) or driving while intoxicated/impaired (DWI) is an offense committed when a driver operates a vehicle after the consumption of alcohol or drugs or other intoxicants. Increased alcohol levels in the driver’s blood lead to diminished mental and motor reactions which, in turn, reduce the driver's ability to control the vehicle. This significantly increases the risk of the driver committing errors of judgment and often results in accidents causing severe injuries and even death. In South Dakota, as in the rest of the US, drunk driving is the single largest cause of motor vehicle related fatalities and accounts for an alarmingly high 40% to 50% of the total number of motor vehicle related deaths every year. REGULATIONS FOR DUI/DWI IN SOUTH DAKOTAIn South Dakota, the Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) limit is set at 0.08% for drivers over 21 years. However, even with a BAC between 0.05% and 0.08%, you can still be booked if you show signs of impairment. For drivers below 21 years of age, the BAC limit is set at 0.02% and for commercial drivers; the limit is set at 0.04%. If you are behind the wheel with keys in the ignition, you are taken to be driving, even if the vehicle is not in motion."

The individual who holds the office is the most senior Minister of the Crown, the leader of the Cabinet and the chairperson of the National Security Committee. The Prime Minister also has the responsibility of administering the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet. The office is not mentioned in the Constitution of Australia and exists only through longstanding political convention and tradition. The individual who holds the office is commissioned by the Governor-General of Australia and at the Governor-General's pleasure subject to the Constitution of Australia. Almost always and according to convention, the Prime Minister is the leader of the majority party or largest party in a coalition of parties in the House of Representatives and continues to be so as long as they command the confidence of this House. Some commentators argue that the Governor General may also dismiss a Prime Minister who is unable to pass the government's supply bill through both houses of parliament, including the Australian Senate, where the government doesn't normally command the majority, as happened in the 1975 constitutional crisis. Other commentators argue that the Governor General acted improperly in 1975 as Whitlam still retained the confidence of the House of Representatives, and there are no generally accepted conventions to guide the use of the Governor General's reserve powers in this circumstance.

[ 1] Limited voting rights were gained by women in Finland, Iceland, Sweden and some Australian colonies and western U. S. states in the late 19th century. [ 2] National and international organizations formed to coordinate efforts to gain voting rights, especially the International Woman Suffrage Alliance (founded in 1904, Berlin, Germany), and also worked for equal civil rights for women. [ 3]In 1881, the Isle of Man gave women who owned property the right to vote. In 1893, the British colony of New Zealand granted women the right to vote. [ 4] The colony of South Australia did the same in 1894 and women were able to vote in the next election, which was held in 1895. South Australia also permitted women to stand for election alongside men. ["

"text": "Of 31 countries with compulsory voting, a dozen actually enforce it Listen LAHORE: Now that the Election Commission has sent a reference to the Law Ministry with new proposals including compulsory voting, following Supreme Court’s order that steps be taken to legally bind all eligible voters in the country to exercise their right of franchise as early as possible and ensure that the winning candidate bags a true majority vote, time is certainly ripe to have a glance at the 31 countries with compulsory voting systems in place. Countries that have compulsory voting systems are Austria, Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Costa Rica, Cyprus, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Egypt, Fiji, France (senate only), Gabon, Greece, Guatemala, Honduras, Italy, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Mexico, Nauru, Paraguay, Peru, Philippines, Singapore, Switzerland (province of Schaffhausen), Thailand, Turkey and Uruguay. A study of the World Fact Book of the American Central Investigation Agency (CIA) and the July 4, 2005 edition of the prestigious British daily “The Guardian” reveals that of the 31 countries with compulsory voting system, around a dozen nations (and Schaffhausen, a province/canton of Switzerland) actually enforce it. If an eligible voter does not attend polling in many of these countries, he or she may be subject to punitive measures by law. But again, people are only penalised practically in countries like Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Congo, Ecuador, Peru, Luxembourg, Singapore, Uruguay and the world’s smallest republic of Nauru. For those who don’t know, the Republic of Nauru is a rock island situated in the South Pacific that was annexed and claimed as a colony by the German Empire in the late 19th century. It is the world’s smallest Republic. History tells that in 1777, 10 years before the American Constitution of 1787, the US state of Georgia had made it compulsory for every citizen to vote or pay a penalty of five pounds (not dollars). A reasonable excuse, however, was admissible. Countries with compulsory voting generally hold elections on a Saturday or Sunday to ensure that working people can fulfill their duty to cast their vote, besides providing postal and pre-poll voting is provided to people who cannot vote on polling day."

The 1948 Act was amended many times, notably in 1973, 1984, 1986 and 2002. It has been replaced by the Australian Citizenship Act 2007, [2] commencing on 1 July 2007. On 13 December 1973, Australia acceded to the 1961 Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness and to the Convention relating to the Status of Refugees. Australian citizenship law is administered by the Department of Immigration and Border Protection which can issue certificates of citizenship on naturalisation or on request provide other proof or evidence of Australian citizenship. Australian passports are issued to Australian citizens by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade. In Australia, the terms \"\"nationality\"\" and \"\"citizenship\"\" can be used interchangeably, but the term \"\"citizenship\"\" (or \"\"citizen\"\") is more commonly used, while \"\"nationality\"\" is most often used in official documents and forms. In general, a person may acquire citizenship automatically (\"\"by operation of law\"\") through birth in Australia or through Australian descent, or by application after a period of residence in Australia. The process of acquiring citizenship by application is referred to as \"\"naturalisation\"\"."

The party was formed in 1992 and is a confederation of eight state and territorial parties. In addition to environmentalism, the party cites four core values: ecological sustainability, social justice, grassroots democracy and peace and non-violence. [ 3]Party constituencies can be traced to various origins – notably the early environmental movement in Australia and the formation of the United Tasmania Group (UTG), one of the first green parties in the world, [4] but also the nuclear disarmament movement in Western Australia and sections of the industrial left in New South Wales. Co-ordination between environmentalist groups occurred in the 1980s with various significant protests. Key people involved in these campaigns included Bob Brown and Christine Milne who went on to contest and win seats in the Tasmanian Parliament and eventually form the Tasmanian Greens; both Brown and Milne subsequently became leaders of the federal party. Following the 2016 federal election, the Australian Greens have nine senators and one member in the lower house, 23 elected representatives across state and territory parliaments, more than 100 local councillors, [5] and over 15,000 party members (as of 2016).

A constitution is a set of rules regarding the government of a nation, that is, laws by which the government must abide. A constitution deals with the correct procedures that the government must follow to create legislation. It is distinct from statute law, where a Bill is debated and passed through Parliament, or common law, which results from decisions made in court that become precedents. Why do we need a constitution? The role of a constitution is to ensure that the government operates effectively and in a fair and accountable manner. It does this in three ways: It holds the government to the law;It provides distinction of power so that no one part of the government is any more powerful than another;It provides a series of checks and balances so that when laws are made or amended, the government follows the correct procedure to pass a Bill. The Australian Constitution A combination of the separate constitutions developed by six British colonies (now the six States of New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania, Victoria and Western Australia) led to the development of the Australian Constitution, which came into effect upon federation in 1901. See Image 1Having an Australian Constitution is an important and necessary part of becoming a nation. By setting out our own rules of governance, it meant that British rule no longer applied to Australia."

He was previously Leader of the Opposition from 2008 to 2009. Turnbull graduated from the University of Sydney with a Bachelor of Arts and a Bachelor of Laws, before attending Brasenose College, Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar, earning a Bachelor of Civil Law. For over two decades prior to entering politics, Turnbull worked as a journalist, lawyer, merchant banker, and venture capitalist. Turnbull served as Chair of the Australian Republican Movement from 1993 to 2000, and was one of the leaders of the unsuccessful \"\"Yes\"\" campaign in the 1999 republic referendum. He was first elected to the Australian House of Representatives for the Division of Wentworth in New South Wales at the 2004 federal election, and was Minister for the Environment and Water from January 2007 until December 2007. After coming second in the 2007 leadership election, Turnbull won the leadership of the Liberal Party in September 2008 and became Leader of the Opposition. However, his support of the Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme proposed by the Rudd Government in December 2009 led to a leadership challenge by Tony Abbott, who defeated Turnbull by a single vote. Though initially planning to leave politics after this, Turnbull chose to stay and was later appointed Minister for Communications in the Abbott Government following the 2013 federal election. On 14 September 2015, citing consistently poor opinion polling for the government, Turnbull resigned from the Cabinet and challenged Abbott, reclaiming the leadership of the Liberal Party by ten votes."

The composition and powers of the Senate are established in Chapter I, Part II of the Australian Constitution. There are a total of 76 senators: 12 senators are elected from each of the six states (regardless of population) and two from each of the two autonomous internal territories (the Australian Capital Territory and the Northern Territory ). Senators are popularly elected under the single transferable vote system of proportional representation. Unlike upper houses in Westminster parliamentary systems, the Senate is vested with significant power, including the capacity to reject all bills, including budget and appropriation Bills, initiated by the government in the House of Representatives, making it a distinctive hybrid of British Westminster bicameralism and US-style bicameralism. As a result of proportional representation, the chamber features a multitude of parties vying for power. The governing party or coalition, which has to maintain the confidence of the lower house, has not held a majority in the Senate since 2005-2008 (and before that since 1981) and usually needs to negotiate with other parties and Independents to get legislation passed. [ 1]Senators normally serve fixed six-year terms (from 1 July to 30 June). At most federal elections, the seats of 40 of the 76 senators (half of the 72 senators from the six States and all four of the senators from the Territories) are contested, along with the entire House of Representatives; such an election is sometimes known as a half-Senate election. The seats of senators elected at a half-Senate election are not contested at the next election, provided it is a half-Senate election."

In many nations, women's suffrage was granted before universal suffrage, so women and men from certain classes or races were still unable to vote. Some countries granted suffrage to both sexes at the same time. This timeline lists years when women's suffrage was enacted. Some countries are listed more than once, as the right was extended to more women according to age, land ownership, etc. In many cases, the first voting took place in a subsequent year. Some women in the Isle of Man (geographically part of the British Isles but not part of the United Kingdom) gained the right to vote in 1881 [1]. Though it did not achieve nationhood until 1907, the colony of New Zealand was the first self-governing country in the world in which all women had the right to vote in, but not to stand for, parliamentary elections in 1893, followed closely by the colony of South Australia in 1894 (which, unlike New Zealand, also allowed women to stand for Parliament). [ 2] In Sweden, conditional women's suffrage was granted during the age of liberty between 1718 and 1772. [ 3]In 1906, the autonomous Grand Duchy of Finland, which became the republic of Finland, was the first country in the world to implement truly universal full suffrage, i.e. both active and passive suffrage, by being the first country in the world to give women full political rights, i.e. the rights both to vote and to run for office.

The debate over the Executive Government's role in the treaty-making process is one such example. Another is the extent to which the Executive may, without parliamentary approval, vary the allowances of Parliamentarians or individual members of the Executive. More fundamentally, there are concerns that the power of the Executive is actually increasing as Parliament's power declines, (1) and it has been suggested that, should Australia become a Republic, the power of the Executive may be increased even further. ( 2)Section 61, the executive power of the Commonwealth, is located in Chapter II of the Constitution, a Chapter Professor Michael Crommelin has suggested was intended by the Constitutional drafters to 'mask rather than prescribe the workings of the executive. ' Section 61 tells us who can exercise the executive power. It also tells us that the executive power 'extends to the execution and maintenance of this Constitution, and of the laws of the Commonwealth.' But what does this mean, and why is it necessary? Sir John Latham, Chief Justice of the High Court from 1935 until 1952, observed in 1961 that there had been little judicial interpretation of section 61."

Fiji and New Zealand were originally part of this process, but they decided not to join the federation.

"text": "Berlin 101Drinking in Public Public drinking in Berlin: left over empty 'Champagne' bottle - Photo: T.bortels/nuberlin.com First things first: in Berlin, drinking in public is generally not forbidden – neither in Berlin, nor elsewhere in Germany. Or in other words: In Germany, drinking in public is allowed. You won’t get a ticket when walking down the street, drinking a beer – and you won’t get a fine for drinking a bottle of wine in the park. Drinking in public is almost a national heritage, considering all those Beer-Gardens, Picknicks and ‘Feierabendbier’. And the drinking age in Germany is relatively low: you basically have to be 16 years old to be allowed to drink alcohol in Germany. But before we dive into the details let’s begin with a fair warning: With great freedom comes great responsibility! Please always be aware, there are always people around you, that may be in a different mood than you. You are not alone – even if you think you are. While you are having ‘ a jolly good time ‘, others may have to work just a couple of hours later and just want to sleep. And even if there is plenty of people around you, chances are that some people simply want to enjoy a nice, warm, quiet evening outdoors."

New York I know what you're thinking. You're with chuckietheeng on this one: I'm a native NYorker and commute on the subways daily, and I have to disagree with you. Sure, if you are a tourist or short term visitor its all great in small doese. But living with it on a daily basis with all the delays, stoppages, reroutes, crammed cars, etc grinds you down. Not a week goes by where I don't come across a delay due to a police investigation, or a pulled emergency brake, or getting into a hot car with no AC, or hearing about a woman get groped on a packed car. Fair enough. On the other hand, the NYC subway network is a massive achievement, and the fact that it was back in service so soon after a certain hurricane that flooded the tunnels and sent us to Tumblr shows that it can take everything despite its age."

However, Subway is not without its pitfalls. Although they have myriad healthful options, they also have quite a few gut-bombs that’ll set you back half a day’s calories (and an entire day’s worth of fat & sodium). If you’re not careful on some of your choices, it’s easy to double the fat and calories in your sandwich… without adding any extra nutrition (or all that much flavor). Also, don’t fall for the “Health Halo” that Subway proudly flaunts: People are likely to consume more calories at Subway than Mc Donald’s. Some General Guidelines Get a 6″ sandwich (or salad!). The Footlong sandwiches, unless you get the Veggie De Lite® without cheese, start at 540 calories and can have 2400mg of sodium — a whole day’s worth. Don’t be fooled by the “6 grams of fat or less” menu. Although the healthiest choices are indeed on that menu, some of those options are crazy-high in sodium, and officially none of them include cheese (that’s how they keep the fat content so low) — and my experience is that just about everyone adds cheese. Skip the soda (and get a free cup of water)."

"text": "Policy Health Housing Aging with Dignity: A Blueprint for Serving NYC’s Growing Senior Population March 21, 2017Executive Summary Just like the nation at large, New York City is getting older as the Baby Boomer generation retires in greater and greater numbers, and medical advances allow more adults to live longer. From 2005 to 2015, the number of New Yorkers over 65 grew by 19.2 percent, which was more than double the rate of the total population (7.47 percent), and more than triple the rate of the population under 65 (5.9 percent). Today more than 1.1 million adults over 65, about 13 percent of the city’s total population, call the five boroughs home, a number which is projected to rise to over 1.4 million by 2040. While this broad demographic shift is in many ways a testament to New York City’s inherent appeal as a place to grow older—with its robust transportation networks, diverse cultural offerings and world-class medical establishments—it also represents a critical opportunity for the City of New York to deepen its engagement with seniors across the five boroughs. Seniors are anchors of their local communities, and today’s seniors overwhelmingly indicate that they want to stay in their homes and neighborhoods as long as possible, rather than transitioning to more institutional settings that are both less personal and more expensive. Consequently, the City now has a chance to put forward a comprehensive blueprint that invests in seniors as a way of building stronger neighborhoods and a healthier city overall. This report by New York City Comptroller Scott M. Stringer puts forward a number of policy proposals that, combined with long-range strategic planning from City agencies, could form the backbone of such a blueprint. The report begins by documenting the growth in the senior population across the City, as well as the neighborhoods with the largest number and highest concentration of seniors. Using this data, the report then analyzes the conditions in which New York City’s seniors live and looks at the senior-focused programs and services run by the City of New York, in some cases down to the neighborhood level. Specifically, the report finds that: Between 2005 and 2015, the City’s population of adults over 65 increased by about 182,000 – from approximately 947,000 to 1.13 million – a rise of more than 19 percent."

"text": "The Top 10 Subway Tile Ideas Posted by Admin“What is subway tile?” This is one of the most common questions consumers ask when thinking about using tile for a home project or upgrade. Stemming from the early 1900’s, these tiles were used in the New York City subway system. Their long rectangular shape, “pencil thin,” grout lines, and shiny white color made them an instant hit back then and they have only been gaining popularity since. In fact, using them in the home today, is one trend that won’t be changing anytime soon and for many good reasons. So we’ve compiled a guide to give you some inspiration and ideas on why and how to use them along with some tips and other useful information on this uniquely shaped option. Why Use Subway Tile? Designed To Brighten Up Dim Spaces Subway tile was designed to bring light to the dark underground subway system and all of their features were hand picked to help them accomplish this. That is why they were originally white in color and had a glossy finish as it helped them to reflect as much of the surrounding light as possible. Their shape was chosen because it provided a large surface area to maximize the total amount of light reflected."

FITZSIMMONS JULY 25, 2016The Bedford Avenue L train stop in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, which will be hard hit by the closing. Ramsay de Give for The New York Times The Metropolitan Transportation Authority plans to close a tunnel that carries the L train, one of New York City’s most crowded subway lines, creating what officials acknowledge will be among the largest disruptions in the transit system’s history. After months of uncertainty, the authority said on Monday that the tunnel, which runs under the East River between Manhattan and Brooklyn, would be shut entirely for a year and a half, starting in January 2019, to repair serious damage caused by Hurricane Sandy. The plan promises to upend the commutes of tens of thousands of people along a popular line that has become synonymous with the hipster culture of the Williamsburg and Greenpoint neighborhoods. The reaction was swift, with regular L riders expressing despair. “Instead of three stops, I’ll have to take three trains,” Marley Cavalcanti, 30, of Greenpoint, said as she waited on a platform in the Bedford Avenue station on her way into Manhattan on Monday. Others offered little sympathy, suggesting that commuters learn to love the bus. “ 2019 is the year Williamsburg dies,” a headline in The New York Post blared in a bit of hyperbole.

[ 14] Opened in 1904, the New York City Subway is one of the world's oldest public transit systems, one of the world's most used metro systems, and the metro system with the most stations. [ 15] It offers service 24 hours per day on every day of the year. [ 16]The New York City Subway is the largest rapid transit system in the world by number of stations, with 472 stations in operation [16] (424 if stations connected by transfers are counted as single stations). [ 1] Stations are located throughout the boroughs of Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and the Bronx. The Staten Island Railway is not officially considered part of the subway, as it lacks a rail link with the subway system, so passengers traveling to another borough take a ferry or bus; however, free transfers are allowed to the New York City Subway and the MTA's bus system. [ 16] The Port Authority Trans-Hudson in Manhattan and New Jersey [17] and the Air Train JFK in Queens [18] both accept the subway's Metro Card but are not operated by the MTA and do not allow free transfers.

Clark Wade / Indy Star (Photo: Kelly_Wilkinson/The_Star)CONNECT TWEET LINKEDIN COMMENT EMAIL MOREAs Jared Fogle stood to learn his fate, Judge Tanya Walton Pratt recounted the story of a once morbidly obese college student who became a wealthy spokesman for sandwiches and healthy living. \"\" What a gift,” Pratt said, “to have such a professional windfall fall in your lap.\"\" Now it’s gone, as is so much else — his marriage, his career, his reputation. And his freedom. A U. S. marshal handcuffed Fogle behind his back and led him out of the federal courtroom after a hearing Thursday. During the hearing, the one-time face of Subway sandwiches pleaded guilty to crimes that were hard to reconcile with his affable, everyman persona: possession or distribution of child pornography and traveling across state lines to have commercial sex with a minor. Pratt went beyond the prosecution’s sentence recommendation of 12½ years. She also went beyond the upper limit of the federal sentencing guidelines of 14 years. Instead, she put Fogle in prison for 15 years, eight months. “"

When it opened in 1903, the Williamsburg Bridge was the longest suspension bridge in the world, with a span of 1600 feet and a total length of 7308 feet and the first with all-steel towers. The 310-foot steel towers support four cables, each measuring 18_ inches in diameter and weighing 4,344 tons. In all, nearly 17,500 miles of wire are used in the cables that suspend the bridge 135 feet above the East River. The massive stiffening trusses were designed not only to withstand high winds, but also to support rail traffic on the deck. The bridge links the New York City boroughs of Manhattan and Brooklyn. Carrying rail, trolley and roadways for carriages and pedestrians, it was one of the last major bridges designed for the horse and carriage. By the 1920s, the automobile was the major mode of transportation and the trolley tracks were replaced with roadways. Currently, the bridge carries four two-lane vehicular roadways, a south roadway (inner and outer) and north roadway (inner and outer), with two rapid transit tracks (J, M, and Z subway lines) sandwiched in between. A walkway and a bikeway also run across the bridge."

It is a state-created authority, with the majority of its board appointed by the five Pennsylvania counties it serves. [ 6] While several SEPTA commuter rail lines terminate in the nearby states of Delaware and New Jersey, additional service to Philadelphia from those states is provided by other agencies: the PATCO Speedline from Camden County, New Jersey is run by the Delaware River Port Authority, a bi-state agency; New Jersey Transit operates many bus lines and a commuter rail line to Philadelphia's Center City; and DART First State runs feeder lines to SEPTA stations in the state of Delaware. SEPTA has the 6th-largest U. S. rapid transit system by ridership, and the 5th largest overall transit system, with about 306.9 million annual unlinked trips."

"text": "Travel Cruise Travel Age Limit On Booking A Cruise? I'm 19 in college and I want to book a cruise for my boyfriend and I. The problem is, we are both the same age and according to the Carnival cruise line webside, you must be 21 to book online and an adult of 25 years and up must be present with you on the cruise. Is this standard for all cruise lines or... show more Follow 8 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: The information that Carnival gave you IS CORRECT. All cruise lines have a minimum age limit and on all others there is a requirement that at least one (1) person in each cabin be age 21 or older (for Carnival its age 25). So no you cannot try a different cruise line and book a cruise, unless you have someone age 21 or older to accompany you. Now the upside of this is if you do find a friend or relative to go with you and share your cabin, then that third person in your cabin will pay a much lower fare. Or another way to put it is if you can find an adult (age 21 or older) you can add th total of all three fares and then split it three ways and you 2 end up going for slightly less. If you do find a person to go then try Royal Caribbean, Princess, or Norwegian cruise lines. They have the age 21 minimum requirement AND are better cruise lines. The best one in my opinion would be RC since they do have the most things to do on their ships."

"text": "TVBreaking News Big Deals TVCarnival Films Downton Abbey Gareth Neame ITVITVUPDATED with press conference, more details: NBCUniversal-owned Carnival Films, the producer of Downton Abbey, today announced that Season 6 will be the final season of the worldwide hit TV drama. The news isn’t entirely surprising, given that last January NBC chairman Bob Greenblatt told TV critics Julian Fellowes long awaited NBC period drama The Gilded Age had been put on the front burner – disturbing news for Downton fans, given that he writes every episode of the PBS hit. Related 'Downton Abbey' Duo Talk Success And Controversy, But Some Questions Are Off Limits Today will be marked as a black day for PBS, given that Downton single-handedly put its Masterpiece franchise back on the map and in the black. Masterpiece EP Rebecca Eaton this morning acknowledged the series has “been a game-changer” for the franchise that struggled for years to find a corporate sponsor, until Downton came along and turned it back into the prettiest dress in the shop. In an international phone call with press this morning, Carnival chief Gareth Neame said he was confident PBS and ITV had hoped for more seasons beyond Season 6. “ It’s been tremendously important for both broadcasters,” he said. Neame said he and creator Fellowes made the decision to quit while they were ahead, in conjunction with the cast, and insisted The Gilded Age did not kill Downton Abbey. “ It isn’t the case that Julian said, ‘I want out’ and others were forced” to go along with his wishes, he told reporters on the call. But, Neame also said he never would have considered continuing the show without Fellowes, who has written every episode of the series. “It’s been about integrity,” not “How do we mechanize the production of Downton ” with other writers, Neame said, describing Downton as a “bespoke, well-crafted piece of television."

"text": "\"By Caroline Costello Cruise Critic Contributor Save Share Updated March 27, 2018These days, staying in touch with friends and family stuck on land -- and even fellow passengers at sea -- is easier than ever. Ships now have branded apps that allow cruisers to chat with each other onboard, super-fast high-bandwidth Wi-Fi and even tablets for use at sea. Whether you want to post selfies to Facebook or check out your ship's dinner menus on your i Phone, you'll likely be covered. Internet speeds can vary significantly from line to line and ship to ship, depending on factors like location and available bandwidth. Most cruise lines don't offer speeds that can support streaming services like Netflix or Spotify. Royal Caribbean, however, is changing the at-sea connectivity game with a relatively affordable high-speed service that can support video and music streaming. The line rolled out Voom -- the fastest Wi-Fi at sea -- fleetwide in 2016. Just like connection speeds at sea, internet charges vary by cruise line. Some lines charge by the minute, and others offer daily or voyage-long packages. A few lines charge by bandwidth."

The purpose of Lent is the preparation of the believer for Easter through prayer, doing penance, mortifying the flesh, repentance of sins, almsgiving, and self-denial. [ 1] This event is observed in the Anglican, Eastern Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox, Lutheran, Methodist, and Catholic Churches. [ 2] [3] [4] Some Anabaptist and evangelical churches also observe the Lenten season. [ 5] [6] Its institutional purpose is heightened in the annual commemoration of Holy Week, marking the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus, which recalls the tradition and events of the New Testament beginning on Palm Sunday, further climaxing on Jesus' crucifixion on Good Friday, which ultimately culminates in the joyful celebration on Easter Sunday of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. In Lent, many Christians commit to fasting, as well as giving up certain luxuries in order to replicate the sacrifice of Jesus Christ's journey into the desert for 40 days. [ 7] [8] [9] Many Christians also add a Lenten spiritual discipline, such as reading a daily devotional or praying through a Lenten calendar, to draw themselves near to God. ["

Illuminated Murano-glass flower sculptures adorn the ceilings, and hand-painted replicas of Degas' ballet studios and Toulouse-Lautrec's Parisian theaters accent the lounges and theaters, while the main restaurants tip their caps to Renoir's \"\"Lunch at the Restaurant Fournaise\"\" and Monet's \"\"Water Lilies\"\" paintings.

Find Your Roll Call Carnival Cruise Deals Find a Carnival Conquest Cruise Find a Cruise It's a surreal juxtaposition, the high-brow art referenced in every nook and cranny of the ship contrasting with the leave-your-pretensions-at-the-door atmosphere that comes with every Carnival cruise. Passengers on Conquest are ready to shake off the concerns of their everyday lives and just let go, relax and have fun. To have the best cruise experience, you've got to do the same. Carnival cruisers are onboard to for fun and have few worries about being judged. How could they when some of the biggest belly laughs come from watching a somewhat oversized man shake his groove thing while whipping his shirt over his head in order to win a bottle of Champagne and a \"\"ship on a stick\"\" (literally a plastic trophy featuring a gold replica of the ship)? Carnival Conquest is also for cruisers who want to soak up the sun while listening to popular radio hits (loudly) and chatting it up with their deck chair neighbors. It's not at all unusual for large numbers of passengers to grab lounge chairs early and stay poolside until it's time for dinner."

Are you confused by cruise industry jargon like \"\"Onboard Credit\"\", \"\"Cabin Category Upgrades\"\", \"\"Senior Rates\"\", \"\"Military Rates\"\", \"\"Balcony Sale\"\" and \"\"Resident Rates\"\"? Well, you've come to the right place! Carnival's top priority is to sell out each and every sailing – this is no different from any cruise line. In selling-out the sailing, Carnival wants to maximize their profit, and, avoid any last minute scrambles that ends-up selling cabins at fire-sale prices. To achieve this goal, Carnival has created a system of promotions that can be confusing. Our aim is to demystify these promotions and give helpful advice on how to get the best price. Before we dive into explaining cruise industry jargon, let's start with four simple tips to get a great deal on Carnival: Tip #1: Procrastination Rarely Pays Years ago, the cruise industry was rife with last minute deals."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Carnivals)navigation search This article is about the celebration of Carnival in many cultures. For the traveling entertainment, see Traveling carnival. For other uses, see Carnival (disambiguation). Carnival in Rome circa 1650Rio's carnival is the largest in the world according to Guinness Worlds. [ 1]Carnival (see other spellings and names) is a Western Christian and Greek Orthodox festive season that occurs before the liturgical season of Lent. [ 2] The main events typically occur during February or early March, during the period historically known as Shrovetide (or Pre-Lent). Carnival typically involves a public celebration or parade combining some elements of a circus, masks, and a public street party. People wear masks and costumes during many such celebrations, allowing them to lose their everyday individuality and experience a heightened sense of social unity. [ 3] Excessive consumption of alcohol, [4] meat, and other foods proscribed during Lent is extremely common. Other common features of carnival include mock battles such as food fights; social satire and mockery of authorities; the grotesque body displaying exaggerated features, especially large noses, bellies, mouths, and phalli, or elements of animal bodies; abusive language and degrading acts; depictions of disease and gleeful death; and a general reversal of everyday rules and norms.

Shula Review of Carnival Inspiration Launched in 1996, Carnival Inspiration is the sixth of Carnival's eight Fantasy-class ships, together with Fantasy (the first one in 1990), Elation , Imagination , Paradise and the “balcony ships” Fascination, Sensation and Ecstasy. History - construction & ownership The shipowner Carnival Cruise Lines is an American company headquartered in Doral, Florida. It was founded as an independent company by Ted Arison in 1972. Today, it is one of the 9 cruise ship brands owned and operated by Carnival Corp. & plc. The line has the largest fleet in the whole Carnival group of cruise companies, with 24 ships currently in operation, and accounting for 21.1% of the cruise industry's worldwide market. The 70,367-ton, 2,052-passenger cruise ship Carnival Inspiration is one of the oldest Carnival ships. Carnival has shown a significant liability to preserving its older hardware, and the teenage Inspiration was the 1st recipient of the line's \"\"Evolutions of Fun\"\" (EOF) makeovers. Carnival Inspiration cruise ship went under the knife in the time of fall 2007 dry dock, and the most visible renovations - a sun deck place with a three-hundred-foot-long corkscrew waterslide, a kids' aqua park and an adults-only retreat place - have the vessel holding its own against newer, more amenity-laden ships. Other dry-dock additions also have a devoted space for the inscrutable 12 - 14 set (\"\"tweens\"\"), bow-to-stern Wi-Fi, a totally new state of the art sound and lighting technology, and new buffet dining options as all-you-can-eat sushi. When all the facilities were complete,Carnival had pumped nearly US$40 million into Carnival Inspiration, which cost to build just US$270 million."

According to KATC, Carnival says that the Triumph lost power \"\"for eight minutes\"\" after an electrical breaker failed. Carnival says the loss of power \"\"affected ventilation in the ship's incinerator, sending smoke into limited areas of three decks. \"\" Everyone will remember the Triumph which floated around in the Gulf of Mexico last year after an engine room fire knocked out power to the ship. Whatever happens with this infamous cruise ship will forever be closely monitored. Carnival denies that a fire broke out on the ship and denies that a fire caused the electrical outage. We have heard these denials before, like this case and this one too. Carnival notified the U. S. Coast Guard of the incident. KATV reports that passengers are still on the deck waiting for the smoke to clear. Whether a fire broke out or not, what caused the breaker to fail?"

The only difference is the size; Washington seats 1,122 while Lincoln has capacity for only 744. For dinner, you can choose to eat in the Washington Dining Room, at the same table, every night at 6 p.m. or 8:15 p.m. -- or you can opt for \"\"Your Time Dining,\"\" arriving in the Lincoln Dining Room anytime between 5:45 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. The Lincoln Dining Room also offers the same set dining times. Wait times depend on when you show up, how many are in your group and if you want your own table. You can limit the time in line by arriving early and opting to sit with fellow passengers. The menu is divided into two groups: dishes that are available every day -- such as a Caesar salad, southern fried chicken and steakhouse selections that are available for an extra charge -- and items that change daily. The rotating menu includes appetizers, one \"\"Didja\"\" (did you ever …) dish described as \"\"food you always wanted to try, but did not dare\"\" and entrees. Dinners were consistently good, but nothing \"\"out of this world.\"\" Our only gripe was the portion sizes; the lobster ravioli was clearly designed for a light eater, while the roasted duck looked like it could have fed the entire table. We recommend asking your waiter about portion sizes before you order."

"text": "Carnival Ships by Age – Oldest to Newest [infograph]Posted on March 30, 2017 by Ship Mate Mike — 39 Comments ↓3.7k SHARESShare Pin Carnival Cruise Ships by Year Built & Dry Docked Do you want the newest carnival ship, or do you prefer one with a few hundred thousand miles under its hull? There’s something to be said about the bells and whistles that come with a new vessel. But, others prefer the nostalgia and character of the older Carnival ships. Another factor to consider when comparing Carnival Ships by Age, is the year it had its last dry dock. The term “dry dock” refers to the renovation period during which the ship has significant renovations completed. With some of these refurbishments, the ships come out looking brand new. The cruise lines have been known to spend tens, if not hundreds of millions of dollars bringing these ships to the status of their much younger contemporaries. We’ll let you decide on the Carnival Ship Age that’s right for you. In the following infograph, we’ve made it as easy as possible to visualize your Carnival Ship’s age versus the rest of the Fleet. We’ve also included a schedule of when each ship came out of Dry Dock."

"text": "\"New Cruise Fees Being Tested By Genevieve Shaw Brown Aug. 9, 2012Email Carnival Cruise Line is testing out a new fee, one that would, among other things, allow priority seating at dinner. Sound familiar? It should. While it may seem the airlines have cornered the market on fees, they may have a little competition from hotels and at least one cruise line. Carnival's $49.95 Faster to the Fun fee is being tested on two ships starting later this month – the Imagination and the Liberty. The program is an industry first, according to cruise experts. \"\" We've never seen anything like this,\"\" said Dan Askin, senior editor at Cruise Critic.com. \"\" There are a couple tangentially related fee-for-perks programs, but they focus on late debarkation. \"\" The charge is per cabin, regardless of the number of passengers. It includes the aforementioned priority dinner seating, plus early embarkation and choice of debarkation time, cabin availability and access to the ships' guest services desk during the cruise. \"\""

"text": "What Cruise Lines Allow Drinking at 18 Years Old?by Lisa Fritscher Related Articles Age Limits for Carnival Cruises Drinking on a Royal Caribbean Cruise Passport Requirements for the Cayman Islands Carry-on Regulations for Traveling With Infants on an Airplane Caribbean Cruises Leaving Port Canaveral Most Efficient Packing for a One Week Cruise to Bermuda U. S. law applies in U. S. territorial waters, which extend 12 nautical miles from the shore. As the legal drinking age in the United States is 21, no cruise line permits passengers under 21 to drink while in U. S. territorial waters. In international waters, however, as well as those claimed by countries with lower drinking ages, some cruise lines allow passengers 18 and over to drink. Parental Permission Azamara (azamaraclubcruises.com), Celebrity (celebritycruises.com) and Norwegian (ncl.com) allow guests 18 through 20 to drink with parental permission. The Azamara and Celebrity policies apply only to sailings that originate in Europe, Australia or South America, while Norwegian’s policy is in effect whenever the ship is in international waters except on Alaska and Hawaii itineraries. On all three lines, your parent or guardian must be on the ship with you and must appear in person to sign the waiver. Location-Based Policies Royal Caribbean (royalcaribbean.com), Costa (costacruise.com), Cunard (cunard.com) and MSC (msccruises.com) base their policies on local laws. Parental permission is not required for 18- through 20-year-olds to drink. Royal Caribbean’s drinking age is 18 for cruises that originate in Asia, Australia, New Zealand, Europe and South America, but the drinking age is always 21 on the company’s private islands. Costa’s drinking age is 18 for all sailings that depart from a non-United States port."

[ 1] In tropical South America, where the species naturally resides, A. ocellatus specimens are often found for sale as a food fish in the local markets. [ 2] [3] The fish has been introduced to other areas, including China, Australia, and the United States. It is considered a popular aquarium fish in Europe and the U. S. [4] [5] [6]Contents [ hide ]1 Taxonomy2 Description3 Distribution and habitat4 Reproduction5 In the aquarium5.1 Food5.2 Territorial behavior5.3 Varieties6 References Taxonomy [ edit]The species was originally described by Louis Agassiz in 1831 as Lobotes ocellatus, as he mistakenly believed the species was marine; later work assigned the species to the genus Astronotus. [ 7] The species also has a number of junior synonyms: Acara compressus, Acara hyposticta, Astronotus ocellatus zebra, and Astronotus orbiculatus. [ 8]Description [ edit]Ocelli on dorsal fin and caudal peduncle A. ocellatus examples have been reported to grow to about 45 cm (18 in) in length and 1.6 kilograms (3.5 lb) in weight. [ 1] The wild-caught forms of the species are typically darkly coloured with yellow-ringed spots or ocelli on the caudal peduncle and on the dorsal fin. [ 5] These ocelli have been suggested to function to limit fin-nipping by piranha ( Serrasalmus spp. ), which co-occur with A. ocellatus in its natural environment. [ 7] [9] The species is also able to rapidly alter its colouration, a trait which facilitates ritualised territorial and combat behaviours amongst conspecifics. ["

"text": "\"GENERAL INFORMATION: SPANISH MACKERELOrder - Perciformes (Scomberomorus maculatus) Family - Scombridae Genus - Scomberomorus Species - maculatus Spanish Mackerels are members of the large family of fish that include the Tunas and other Mackerels. Although these fish vary greatly in size, they share many common characteristics including being very fast, powerful swimmers. The average size of Spanish Mackerel is from 2-3 pounds, while a weight of 9-10 pounds is considered large. Spanish Mackerels are considered coastal pelagic fin fish, forming immense, fast-moving schools that range the open seas of the Atlantic Ocean, from New York to the Gulf of Mexico. In the late summer and early fall this species migrates southward to spend the winter and early spring along Florida's southern coast. Spanish Mackerels do not appear to move freely around the Florida Keys, creating separate Gulf and Atlantic populations.- Common Names The English language common names for this species are Atlantic spanish mackerel, horse mackerel, spotted mackerel, Spaniard, spotted cybium and Spanish mackerel.- Geographical Distribution Spanish mackerel are found in the subtropical and tropical waters off North America and the Caribbean. They are locally found along the Atlantic coast from as far north as Nova Scotia (Canada) and south to Florida along the Gulf of Mexico (US). Florida is considered to be the area with the highest abundance of Spanish mackerel.- Habitat Spanish mackerel are epipelagic, residing at depths ranging from 33-115 feet . They are often found in very large schools near the surface of the water. They frequent barrier islands and the passes associated with these islands and are rarely found in low salinity waters."

In the late 19th century, Long Key was used as a coconut plantation. By 1910, Layton was becoming famous as a fishing destination, thanks in part to promotion by sports writer Zane Grey. However, the developing tourist infrastructure on Long Key was largely destroyed by the Labor Day Hurricane of 1935. After World War II, Mary and Del Layton, who ran a grocery business in Miami, bought 40 acres (160,000 m 2) on Long Key and started developing the property as \"\"Layton's Long Key Fishing Camp\"\", which grew substantially over the succeeding years. Layton was incorporated as a town on September 18, 1963. The land that would become Long Key State Park was acquired between 1961 and 1973; the park opened on October 1, 1969.

The island, also known as Sanibel Island, constitutes the entire city. It is a barrier island – a collection of sand on the leeward side of the more solid coral-rock of Pine Island. Most of the city proper is at the east end of the island. After the Sanibel causeway was built to replace the ferry in May 1963, the city was incorporated in 1974 and the residents asserted control over development by establishing the Sanibel Comprehensive Land Use Plan, helping to maintain a balance between development and preservation of the island's ecology. [ 6]Due to easy causeway access, Sanibel is a popular tourist destination known for its shell beaches and wildlife refuges."

Even better, what ticks them off? Hopefully, this piece will help you better understand this living dinosaur. We'll examine some common misconceptions and learn 15 fascinating facts about alligators that might just make you want to visit them up close and personal on one of our famous airboat tours!Fact 1: Do alligators cry? Yes!When a person is accused of crying alligator (or crocodile) tears, the implication is that the tears are fake and the emotion is far from genuine. But alligators and crocodiles really do shed genuine tears, but only to clean and moisturize their eyes. Fact 2: The Spanish gave the alligator its name."

This lake is known for quality size fish and black crappie angling is popular during the cooler months. Flooding in the area from Hurricane Irma has made launching difficult, but early reports by anglers indicate good catches are possible if you can locate the schools. Crappie over 12” and two pounds are not uncommon. Drifting and trolling near the river channel and offshore from the power plant on the northwest shore are popular on this lake, but schools may be located all over the lake. Crappie move inshore in late winter/early spring for spawning and appear to prefer bulrush if available in the right water depths.top of page Lake Talquin (Gadsden and Leon counties)The 8,800-acre Lake Talquin reservoir is located just outside Tallahassee and is home to the 3-pound, 13 ¼-ounce state record. A 10-inch minimum size limit helps maintain the crappie fishery and 12-14 inch fish are common. This lake has a lot of submerged stumps and snags, so proceed with caution, particularly in the eastern half of the lake."

Here’s a look back at them, and at some places to catch a mega-bream of your own! ( May 2008)By Eileen Davis Shortly before passing away in December 2007, the late R. V. Lashley displayed the mount of the record shellcracker that his father Jeff Lashley caught in May 1962. Photo by Stephen E. Davis. Serendipity!As far as assistant chief of fisheries for the Alabama Division of Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries Nick Nichols is concerned, nothing else accounts for the unlikely existence of a state- or world-record fish. Even when all factors required to produce a record fish are present, happenstance is involved. “The fish has to have the genetic propensity to live old and grow big,” he said, “and it has to be lucky, because mortality rates are high for just about all of our fish species. ”Purposely producing a record fish seems unattainable. Some managers of privately owned small lakes and ponds have applied the best science to try to grow the next world-record largemouth bass, yet have been unable to accomplish the feat. Nichols is right: Only luck can explain a Cotton State bluegill record unbroken for 57 years — even though the species is found in nearly every body of water in the state."

They can also be found along the southeastern coast of Florida. Lake Worth and Cape Sable are the most northern limits of the species. They are more commonly found in the lowlands of Florida, and salt-water marshes throughout Central and South America.

They inhabit freshwater, including rivers, lakes and reservoirs, and can also be found in brackish environments, such as example estuaries and swamps. There is also a population in a unique hyper-saline lake in the Dominican Republic. Another unlikely environment where American crocodiles are found is along brackish canals bordering a Florida power plant. American crocodiles create complex burrow systems to provide them an alternative shelter when they are vulnerable to low water levels. These burrows are used as shelter from cold weather, as hiding places, and as a spot to rest."

Age restrictions for police jobs can vary widely among jurisdictions. Most police departments require their new officers to be at least 21 years old when they take up their duties, but exceptions exist. Many police agencies will accept a wide range of maximum ages for new recruits. Individuals planning to become a police officer should check the age requirements of the specific jurisdictions where they intend to apply. Minimum Age The minimum age for new recruits to begin their application process with a police force ranges from 17 to 21 years old. In the New York City Police Department, a 17½-year-old may register and take the written civil service exam, the first step to becoming an officer. Even if the candidate passes the application process, however, he can't be hired as an officer until he's 21. In San Diego, recruits must be 20 years old to take the exam and 21 when they graduate from the police academy. The Los Angeles Police Department won't allow a new recruit to begin training at the police academy until he's 21, while an 18-year-old can file his application with the Pittsburgh Bureau of Police."

Respondents strongly suggested that, at least until the period of time we covered in 2008, the valuable crime management tool has been subject to misuse. Most readers understand the basics of how Compstat works. At routine strategy meetings, commanders present the upper echelons of the department with data about crime patterns and trends in their commands. To assess this process, we surveyed hundreds of retirees - a majority of whom worked during the Compstat era. To assure candor, the responses were anonymous.

Giuliani, CBS News’ “Face the Nation,” Dec. 28, 2014In his interview on “Face the Nation,” Giuliani addressed The Fact Checker’s Four Pinocchio rating about his comment that President Obama launched a propaganda campaign that “everybody should hate the police.” That rhetoric, Giuliani had said, led to the assassination-style killings of two New York Police Department officers in December. Giuliani had not responded to our requests for comment for the fact check, but was later asked about it by Major Garrett during the interview. He said the fact check “missed the one big point: Al Sharpton.” He offered a new explanation with a figure attached: Obama’s anti-police rhetoric is through his association with the Rev. Al Sharpton, who has been invited to the White House 80 to 85 times. “You know, actions speak louder than words. You put Al Sharpton next to you, you just told everyone, ‘I’m against the police,’” Giuliani said in the segment."

The act, made up of two police reform bills, mandates that an officer must provide his or her name, rank and command. The officer also must hand out business cards when there is no arrest or summons. Officers will also be required to get recorded audio or written consent -- before they search a person they stop without a legal basis. The council voted 37-13 in favor of the bill during Tuesday's meeting. The ACLU called the vote \"\"common-sense reform\"\" for the search/consent portion of the bill, but said the business card provision of the combined bill: \"\"removed the majority of protections and added loopholes that fail to protect New Yorkers from police abuses in the most common forms of daily encounters.\"\" The Police Benevolent Association called the legislation \"\"harmful,\"\" adding that bills like this \"\"discourage police officers from proactively addressing the threat of crime and terrorism.\"\""

Philip Banks 3rd replaces Chief Joseph Esposito, who retired Wednesday after 44 years with the department. He walked out of police headquarters for the last time as bagpipes played and hundreds of officers cheered. Banks, 50, joined the NYPD in 1986 and most recently ran the Community Affairs Bureau. Before that he was the commanding officer of Manhattan North, which spans 12 police precincts. His current salary of $191,918 will increase to $199,548. Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly called Banks an outstanding field commander who was “adept in managing police personnel and operations.” Kelly also praised Banks as a “consummate builder of community relations. ”He is the second black officer to hold the prestigious post."

Some major cities in which community policing and other community relations strategies have been used report increased public confidence in police, a reduction in crime, and the easing of racial tensions. [ 1] The goal of community policing is for community residents and police to work together, cooperatively addressing crime in the neighborhood. [ 2] Through effective police-community relations, community members learn about policing and how to prevent crime, and a police department can learn about neighborhood members and their policing needs. Community policing allows a police department and neighborhood residents to come together to combat crime. The lack of a community policing effort can doom the relations between the police and the community that it is designed to protect. As the NYPD has recognized,whatever gains we have achieved in fighting crime are minimized if the price is the trust and respect of the community we serve. If crime levels decline, but members of the community are reluctant to approach police for fear of a negative encounter, then we have not truly met our obligations to the public. [ 3]Police Commissioner Howard Safir testified at the New York hearing that it is critical for the NYPD to do more community outreach because “ [i]t is important to the person in the community that he or she perceives that she is safe from the police as well as from criminals. And the reality is people in this city . . ."

Function Transplants Diseases Donation Bone marrow is the spongy tissue inside some of the bones in the body, including the hip and thigh bones. Bone marrow contains immature cells, called stem cells. Many people with blood cancers, such as leukemia and lymphoma, sickle cell anemia, and other life-threatening diseases, rely on bone marrow or cord blood transplants to survive. Healthy bone marrow and blood cells are needed in order to live. When disease affects bone marrow so that it can no longer function effectively, a marrow or cord blood transplant could be the best treatment option; for some patients it is the only potential cure. Fast facts on bone marrow Here are some key points about bone marrow. More detail is in the main article.

Rockefeller and Andrew Carnegie. The businessmen each accumulated private wealth at a scale previously unknown outside of royalty, and each in their later years decided to give much of it away. Carnegie gave away the bulk of his fortune in the form of one-time gifts to build libraries and museums before divesting almost the entirety of his remaining fortune in the Carnegie Foundation and the Carnegie Corporation of New York. Rockefeller followed suit (notably building the University of Chicago) and gave nearly half of his fortune to create the Rockefeller Foundation. Meanwhile, in 1914, Frederick Goff, a well-known banker at the Cleveland Trust Company, sought to eliminate the \"\"dead hand\"\" of organized philanthropy and so created the first community foundation in Cleveland. He created a corporately structured foundation that could utilize community gifts in a responsive and need-appropriate manner. Scrutiny and control resided in the \"\"live hand\"\" of the public as opposed to the \"\"dead hand\"\" of the founders of private foundations."

"text": "Robert Brown was healthy, willing and a good match: So why not give a kidney to his wife, who otherwise would need dialysis? There was just one potential obstacle: Brown was 74, an age once unthinkable for a kidney donor. For this retired psychologist from Columbia, that wasn’t an issue. “ I didn’t think about the age thing, not at all,” Brown said, describing his decision two years ago to offer a kidney to his wife, Sue, then 71 and ill with Fabry disease, a rare genetic disorder that can lead to a harmful buildup of fat in the kidneys. For the Browns’ physicians, what counted was the couple’s physiological age – how healthy and strong both of them were – rather than their chronological age. “We feel very strongly that healthy older adults should receive organ transplants and be considered as organ donors,” said Dorry Segev, an associate professor of surgery at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, whose colleagues operated on the Browns. Many of the nation’s transplant centers agree, at least in part. More than half of them do not have upper age limits for kidney transplant recipients. More Kidney Sharing System May Change To Better Accomodate Older Patients But physicians are conservative about living kidney donors: Nearly three-quarters of transplant centers have not accepted organs from people older than 70, according to Johns Hopkins research. Caution makes sense because the long-term effects of kidney donation on older adults are unknown, Sameh Abul-Ezz, a professor of nephrology at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, noted in a 2010 commentary in the journal Kidney International."

Transplant doctors prefer younger donors for their patients In our previous post, we stated that one reason for the upper age limit is to provide the best treatment for patients. Doctors weigh many factors when selecting a donor for one of their patients; the age of the potential donors is one of them. Transplant doctors want younger donors."

Heart transplants have become more and more common since they were first performed in 1967. Dick Cheney ’s was one of the roughly 5,000 heart transplants performed worldwide each year; about 2,000 are performed in the U. S. alone. This actually is a rather low figure, considering that at any given time, there are more than 3,000 people waiting for a heart transplant. Today, there are at least 3,100 people awaiting a heart transplant in the U. S. Who is considered for a heart transplant? Heart transplantation is considered a last resort when a person has reached end-stage heart failure that does not respond to any other therapies —medicines, mechanical devices, and surgery. The patient must also be likely to die without a transplant. As sick as the patient must be to experience such heart failure, he or she must be otherwise healthy to be considered. How does the waiting list work? Because of the limited number of organs available, patients in need of a transplant are put on the national waiting list, but they are not listed in any particular order, and being first on the list will not necessarily give a person priority."

A blood donation occurs when a person voluntarily has blood drawn and used for transfusions and/or made into biopharmaceutical medications by a process called fractionation (separation of whole-blood components). Donation may be of whole blood (WB), or of specific components directly (the latter called apheresis). Blood banks often participate in the collection process as well as the procedures that follow it. Today in the developed world, most blood donors are unpaid volunteers who donate blood for a community supply."

Function Transplants Diseases Donation Bone marrow is the spongy tissue inside some of the bones in the body, including the hip and thigh bones. Bone marrow contains immature cells, called stem cells. Many people with blood cancers, such as leukemia and lymphoma, sickle cell anemia, and other life-threatening diseases, rely on bone marrow or cord blood transplants to survive. Healthy bone marrow and blood cells are needed in order to live. When disease affects bone marrow so that it can no longer function effectively, a marrow or cord blood transplant could be the best treatment option; for some patients it is the only potential cure. Fast facts on bone marrow Here are some key points about bone marrow. More detail is in the main article. Bone marrow produces 200 billion new red blood cells every day, along with white blood cells and platelets. Bone marrow contains mesenchymal and hematopoietic stem cells."

Cristofalo Show morehttps://doi.org/10.1016/0531-5565 (88)90032-0 Get rights and content Abstract Normal human fibroblast-like cells show a declining proliferative capacity with age. Eventually the cultures become senescent and incapable of replicating. Loss of proliferative capacity is characterized by a declining fraction of cells which synthesize DNA in a defined time period, a gradually increasing cell cycle time, and a declining saturation density. For 36 sublines of WI-38 cells and 17 sublines of IMR-90 cells, we have characterized the fraction of cells synthesizing DNA and the saturation density throughout their life spans. These parameters were both related in a regular and consistent way with the percent life span completed and determined retrospectively by cell counts at each subcultivation until phase-out. Thus, these two determinations serve as independent biomarkers for cell culture aging as they relate to one functional parameter — proliferative capacity. As such, they can be used to assess functional age independently of chronological age.

"text": "June 2013 Professional Notes Newsletter Changing Donor-Imposed Restrictions: Cy Pres and Equitable Deviation Download as PDF Almost as long as there have been gifts to charity, there have been donor-imposed restrictions that either fail or become outdated in some other way. The reasons for this are many: advances in medical science, evolution in social mores, changes in the law or economic theory, severe financial hardship in an organization or a community, and so forth. In the future, it is possible that technological breakthroughs, climate change, terrorism, political upheaval, and other developments will create changed circumstances that few today would imagine. If a donor is able and willing to consent to changes in a gift restriction in order to address these developments, no legal issue is presented. This was the topic of the March 2013 issue of Professional Notes. But when the donor has died or is a corporation that has gone out of business, or if the donor refuses to agree to a change, a legal remedy is usually needed in order to deal with an outdated restriction. Lawyers typically learn in a law school trusts & estates class about the doctrine of cy pres, sometimes called the “doctrine of changed circumstances,” and that is certainly a good place to start the conversation. But cy pres, fashioned centuries ago by courts of equity to deal with the administration of charitable trusts, has several notable offspring, starting with the closely related doctrine of equitable deviation. Those two ancient doctrines are generally codified today as part of trust law—in New York, for example, in the Estates, Powers and Trusts Law (EPTL). Nonprofit corporations are typically subject to a similar but slightly different set of cy pres and equitable deviation rules."

Most people think this sounds like an over-the-top personal sacrifice. But the procedure is safe and relatively painless. I will spend three days in the hospital and return to work within a month. I am 21, but even for someone decades older, the risk of death during surgery is about 1 in 3,000. My remaining kidney will grow to take up the slack of the one that has been removed, so I’ll be able do everything I can do now. And I’ll have given someone, on average, 10 more years of life, years free of the painful and debilitating burden of dialysis. Alexander doesn’t want any praise or talk of “heroic sacrifice,” that is part of the problem. He wants to normalize donation and he argues for compensation in a regulated market. The people waiting for kidneys aren’t dying because of kidney failure; they’re dying because of our failure — without Congress’s misguided effort to ban organ sales, they would have been able to get the kidneys they desperately needed.…There’s no reason that paying for a kidney should be seen as predatory."

E-mail: [email protected] Cytomegalovirus (CMV) transmission remains a particular concern for immunocompromised patients, such as those undergoing bone marrow transplantation or receiving chemotherapy. It is of major importance for CMV seronegative patients that the risk of CMV transmission with blood products is minimized. The currently available techniques, use of CMV-seronegative blood products and leucocyte-reduction by filtration, have limitations. Pathogen inactivation is the newest approach to making blood safer. Several technologies are already available or in development. The final choice of a technique will most likely depend on the risk for severe CMV disease in the patient population as well as efficacy, safety, and costs of the chosen techniques. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a highly cell-associated virus, which normally causes an asymptomatic infection in the immune competent host. After a primary infection, the virus persists in a latent state, from which it can be reactivated under certain conditions. Since CMV can cause severe illness and even death in immunocompromised patients, such as patients undergoing haematopoietic stem cell transplantation, solid organ transplantation, and patients suffering from leukaemia or lymphoma, the spread of CMV through blood products should be prevented."

Other policies are designed to increase the chance that a pregnancy will result and that the process will be safe for both donor and recipient. Commonly, egg donors must be a certain age, usually 21, and be no more than 30,at the time of donation. You should be 29 when you sign up for the process. The lower limit ensures that a woman can legally enter into a contract. The upper limit reflects the fact that older women respond less well to fertility drugs. There is also a chance that an older woman’s eggs will be abnormal, making pregnancy less likely or increasing the risk of a birth defect."

However, the age to enlist is not black and white. In fact, it is quite grey with different rules, regulations, and waivers to be accepted for various jobs at a wide range of ages. The federal law that can be manipulated in a case by case basis states that the minimum age for enlistment in the United States military is 17 (with parental consent) and 18 (without parental consent). The maximum age is 35. However, Department of Defense policy allows the individual services to specify the maximum age of enlistment based upon their unique requirements. The Air Force tends to have an older upper limit for enlistment, whereas the Marine Corps' cutoff age is younger than the other branches of the service. Each branch of the military has set maximum ages for those without any prior service enlistment. For those with prior enlistment, the circumstances will vary significantly case by case, so it is best to check with the branch you want to reenlist into to find out your eligibility. The individual services have set the following maximum ages for non-prior service enlistment: Active Duty None-Prior Service Army: 35 (must ship to basic training prior to 35th birthday."

AIR FORCEBy CHRIS CARROLL | STARS AND STRIPES Published: June 25, 2014WASHINGTON — Thanks to a new Air Force policy announced Tuesday, enlisted recruits can now experience the joys of basic training in their late 30s. The Air Force raised the maximum age for enlisted accession from 27 to 39, meaning it may now be the best choice for those who feel the call to military service later in life. The maximum age for Army enlisted recruits is 35, while the Navy and Marines cap recruit ages at 34 and 28, respectively. Under federal law, the oldest recruit any military branch can enlist is 42, although each service sets its own policy within that limit.article continues belowrelated articles Previous As wars end, military cuts enlistment goals Air shows' link to military recruitment iffy Air Force plans review board to further trim ranks Next Annette Crawford, a spokeswoman for the Air Force Recruiting Service at Joint Base San Antonio-Randolph, Texas, said officials would be watching to see whether the aches and pains of approaching middle age are too much for older recruits. “With the change, if we see a higher initial training attrition or increased physical injuries … the Air Force recruiting commander can set a more restrictive age if necessary,” she said. The increased maximum age is for all Air Force enlisted occupations rather than being targeted at increasing accessions in certain areas, she said. The new policy comes at a time of a declining defense budget, a shrinking military and falling recruiting goals, however. From 2009 to 2013, the number of recruits dropped from nearly 32,000 to just over 26,000."

In the Army, the mandatory retirement age is 62, however there are exceptions for generals and certain officers to stay longer. You do need to get promoted on schedule in order to stay though. As a soldier/Marine ages, they get promoted which means that at some point they are not going to be in the field \"\"leading men into battle.\"\" They are going to be in the back somewhere working to conduct that battle. Any special forces team will tend to be older than regular infantry, the average age for a Ranger recruit is 23 which is about the time that people who serve one enlistment are starting to get out. Infantry is full of young people who serve 4-6 years and get out; Rangers and Seals are typically in it for at least the full 20. This fact alone will skew the average age higher. There are also age limits to enlist, I believe that the Army has the highest at 35. In general, age is not a factor as long as you are competent and physically fit."

"text": "Members of the armed forces are not immune to the substance use problems that affect the rest of society. Although illicit drug use is lower among U. S. military personnel than among civilians, heavy alcohol and tobacco use, and especially prescription drug abuse, are much more prevalent and are on the rise. The stresses of deployment during wartime and the unique culture of the military account for some of these differences. Zero-tolerance policies and stigma pose difficulties in identifying and treating substance use problems in military personnel, as does lack of confidentiality that deters many who need treatment from seeking it. Those with multiple deployments and combat exposure are at greatest risk of developing substance use problems. They are more apt to engage in new-onset heavy weekly drinking and binge drinking, to suffer alcohol- and other drug-related problems, and to have greater prescribed use of behavioral health medications. They are also more likely to start smoking or relapse to smoking. Illicit and Prescription Drugs According to the 2008 Department of Defense (Do D) Survey of Health Related Behaviors among Active Duty Military Personnel, just 2.3 percent of military personnel were past-month users of an illicit drug, compared with 12 percent of civilians. Among those age 18–25 (who are most likely to use drugs), the rate among military personnel was 3.9 percent, compared with 17.2 percent among civilians. A policy of zero tolerance for drug use among Do D personnel is likely one reason why illicit drug use has remained at a low level in the military for 2 decades."

"text": "\"News Air Force Raises Enlistee Age Limit From 27 to 39Stars and Stripes By Chris Carroll WASHINGTON — Thanks to a new Air Force policy announced Tuesday, enlisted recruits can now experience the joys of basic training in their late 30s. The Air Force raised the maximum age for enlisted accession from 27 to 39, meaning it may now be the best choice for those who feel the call to military service later in life. The maximum age for Army enlisted recruits is 35, while the Navy and Marines cap recruit ages at 34 and 28, respectively. Under federal law, the oldest recruit any military branch can enlist is 42, although each service sets its own policy within that limit. Annette Crawford, a spokeswoman for the Air Force Recruiting Service at Joint Base San Antonio-Randolph, Texas, said officials would be watching to see whether the aches and pains of approaching middle age are too much for older recruits. \"\" With the change, if we see a higher initial training attrition or increased physical injuries ... the Air Force recruiting commander can set a more restrictive age if necessary,\"\" she said. The increased maximum age is for all Air Force enlisted occupations rather than being targeted at increasing accessions in certain areas, she said. The new policy comes at a time of a declining defense budget, a shrinking military and falling recruiting goals, however. From 2009 to 2013, the number of recruits dropped from nearly 32,000 to just over 26,000. While recruiting goals for 2014 are still being finalized, they’re likely to fall again."

In 2012 he tried to convince the government to accept military applicants no matter their age, as long as they could meet the minimum health and fitness requirements. The House said no. Every branch of the military has age limits, from the Coast Guard to the National Guard, and most of them come to a halt before age 35. However, there are ways to enter the military when you're 35 or older. Speak to a recruiter of the branch you're interested in for the most up-to-date guidelines and hidden loopholes, as rules change all the time. Not All Branches Are the Same When it comes to basic requirements, not all branches of the military are the same. The Air Force typically closes the door to recruits at age 39 The Marines close it at 28, and both the Army and Navy limit the maximum age to 34. The Coast Guard has both doors open to applicants as old as 39, according to Military.com."

"text": "\"Politics & Government Military Is there an age limit to joining the army? Follow 24 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Age One would think that age would be a simple category. One is old enough, or too old, right? Unfortunately, it doesn't quite work that way. By federal law (10 U. S. C., 510), the minimum age for enlistment in the United States Military is 17 (with parental consent) and the maximum age is 35. This is to ensure than anyone who enlists on active duty can be eligible for retirement (20 years of service) at the mandatory age of 55 (60 in some cases). However, DOD policy allows the individual services to specify the maximum age of enlistment based upon their own unique requirements. The individual services have set the following maximum ages for non-prior service enlistment: Active Army - 42 Army Reserves - 42 Active Air Force - 27 Air Force Reserve - 34 Active Navy - 34 Naval Reserves - 39 Active Marines - 28 Marine Corps Reserve - 29 Active and Reserve Coast Guard - 27 However, prior service enlistees can receive an \"\"age waiver.\"\" In most cases, the amount of age that can be waived depends upon the amount of time the individual previously spent in the military. For example, let's say that an individual has four years of credible military service in the Marine Corps and wants to join the Air Force."

Maximum Age Requirements To Join The Military Share Flip Pin Share Email•••By Stew Smith Updated April 21, 2017One of the most frequently asked questions recruiters get asked is what are the maximum age limits to enlist in the military service. There is an age limit that disqualifies certain ages from joining the military. However, the age limit is higher that you may think. If you are over this age limit, you are not qualified for service. But, if you keep pushing and proving to the recruiters that your experience and physical fitness levels are acceptable, you could be eligible for an age waiver. The most frequently asked question is the following: Question: What is the maximum age to enlist in the Military? Across the United States Armed Forces, the maximum age for enlistment for someone who has never served in the military before depends on the branch. For the Army, the maximum age is 35. For the Navy, age waivers start at 34-years-old."

Army Rangers By Marshall Moore; Updated October 04, 2017Army Ranger students learning proper patrol techniques Soldiers in the United States Army's 75th Ranger Regiment are some of the finest combat troops the service has to offer. In order to become an Army Ranger, soldiers must be in excellent physical condition, intelligent and be exceptionally qualified within their military occupational specialty. In addition to these qualifications, Army Rangers must meet certain basic age criteria in order to be considered for selection and assignment. Basic Age Requirements Army Ranger in camouflage during training There are technically no specific age requirements for soldiers seeking to become Army Rangers. Thus, the effective age limits are the same as those required to join the Army in the first place. Applicants must be at least 17 years old (or 18 without parental permission) and no older than 41 years old. While these are the minimum and maximum ages, however, keep in mind the Army Rangers must be both extremely qualified in their job field and in excellent physical fitness [Reference 2]. Thus, the odds of an 18-year-old with little Army experience being accepted into the 75th Ranger Regiment are slim to none. In the same vein, a 40-year-old applicant whose best athletic days have passed him by is just as likely to be passed over. Officer Age Requirements U. S. Army Ranger rappels down tower The Rangers do not put an age limit on officers looking to join the regiment. However, they must be ranked between first lieutenant and major (O-2 to O-4)."

US Navy and Marine Corps vets are considered NAVETs and have slightly different requirements than Other Service Veterans (OSVETs). Request Info on How to Join the US Navy Age There is no minimum age, but applicants must be able to complete 20 years of active duty before they turn 60 years old. The maximum \"\"computed\"\" age for reenlistment into the Navy is 40 years old. Education Prior service applicants who hadn't earned a high school diploma before their first time in service are credited with having earned one upon reenlisting - as long as their prior service was for four or more years. ASVAB/AFQTIf you reenlist into a job of the same rating as what you worked in your prior enlistment, prior service recruits can enlist using the AFQT score from their last ASVAB evaluation. If switching to a job in a different rating, then that person will need to take the ASVAB again and use the new line score to qualify. Physical Fitness All prior service recruits (other than those that have only been out of active duty for less than 6 months) must undergo physical evaluation at MEPS.

S. Marine Corps is organized as an expeditionary force that can deploy quickly and launch amphibious operations or ground assaults. The Marine Air-Ground Task Force is organized into four elements: the command, ground, aviation and logistics combat elements. Although not everyone views the pros and cons of a particular branch of the military in the same light, there are some general facts about joining the Marines that can be viewed as disadvantages compared to joining other military branches. Jobs in the Marine Corps In terms of size, all other branches of the U. S. military, except the Coast Guard, have more personnel than the Marines - both enlisted and officers. This in itself creates limited availability for Marine jobs. Further, the Marine Corps does not offer the same selection of jobs that some of the other branches have. For example, there are no medical personnel in the Marines; the Marine Corps uses Navy medical personnel when necessary, therefore those aspiring to become medics are not able to do so in the Marines. Basic Training All new enlistees, regardless of branch, must undergo some type of basic training. The Navy calls it boot camp, the Army calls it basic combat training, and the Air Force calls it basic military training. In the Marine Corps, it has the somewhat softer title of recruit training."

( Image: Jared Rodriguez / t r u t h o u t; Adapted: louisa_catlover, m1ndy9876)One great myth in American society is that military personnel are poorly paid. That was true until the 1980s, when a push to improve recruit quality boosted military pay each year at twice the inflation rate. The military was once known for low pay yet great retirement, but now has great pay as well. This fact is hidden from the public with absurd propaganda from military associations about the need to boost pay, and fear in the Pentagon that if Congress catches on, the days of big pay raises may end. For example, inflation was flat last year and Social Security recipients received no increase for 2010. However, military personnel just got a 3.2 percent pay increase, while civilian wages fell 1.6 percent last year. Some Congress members worry the USA will go bankrupt unless it cuts spending, so why the pay boost? First, it's a form of vote buying. Second, federal civilian pay increases follow military pay increases."

AIR FORCEBy CHRIS CARROLL | STARS AND STRIPES Published: June 25, 2014WASHINGTON — Thanks to a new Air Force policy announced Tuesday, enlisted recruits can now experience the joys of basic training in their late 30s. The Air Force raised the maximum age for enlisted accession from 27 to 39, meaning it may now be the best choice for those who feel the call to military service later in life. The maximum age for Army enlisted recruits is 35, while the Navy and Marines cap recruit ages at 34 and 28, respectively. Under federal law, the oldest recruit any military branch can enlist is 42, although each service sets its own policy within that limit.article continues belowrelated articles Previous As wars end, military cuts enlistment goals Air shows' link to military recruitment iffy Air Force plans review board to further trim ranks Next Annette Crawford, a spokeswoman for the Air Force Recruiting Service at Joint Base San Antonio-Randolph, Texas, said officials would be watching to see whether the aches and pains of approaching middle age are too much for older recruits. “With the change, if we see a higher initial training attrition or increased physical injuries … the Air Force recruiting commander can set a more restrictive age if necessary,” she said. The increased maximum age is for all Air Force enlisted occupations rather than being targeted at increasing accessions in certain areas, she said. The new policy comes at a time of a declining defense budget, a shrinking military and falling recruiting goals, however. From 2009 to 2013, the number of recruits dropped from nearly 32,000 to just over 26,000."

"text": "US Military Careers Joining the Military Maximum Age to Become an Officer in the Military Age Limits for Military Service (Officer)Share Flip Pin Share Email•••By Stew Smith Updated February 06, 2018Many people ignore the calling to serve our country while young for a variety of reasons. Some cannot fight the urge anymore and decide it is time to drop the corporate job and put on a military uniform. There are age limits however for those who line up at the recruiter's office a little late in life. Here is a typical question that often occurs with young men and women in their late twenties and early thirties about military service: What Is the Maximum Age to Become an Officer in the Military? The maximum age for a commission is age 35. It is because a military officer must be able to have 20 years of service, to be retirement eligible by the maximum retirement age of 55. There are a few exceptions: Military medical officers and chaplains can be commissioned up to the age of 47 with waivers into their 50s (they also don't have to retire by age 55). Depending upon the need for doctors, psychologists, chaplains (all faiths), and legal officers as well, the maximum age can be waived. Those with prior enlisted service can receive waivers (as long as they can retire with 20 years of military service by age 55). Of course, there are exceptions to every rule as many senior officers serve well past the age 55 with 30 plus years of service."

With the current state of our nation's economy and its resulting budget shortfalls, combined with the drawing down of our forces, it has never been more challenging to find an opening to join the service. The Navy has been much more selective as to whom they allow to fill the limited slots available for its ratings and programs. To qualify, there are a few hurdles one must clear. First, the basic requirements for joining the Navy; does the applicant meet all of the minimum standards such as the age, education, height and weight, and the \"\"right\"\" score on the ASVAB test to join?

Junior League also includes the use of bats with 2 5⁄ 8 -inch (6.7 cm) barrels rather than the transitional 2 1⁄ 4 -inch (5.7 cm) barrels of Little League.

Both relate to gender. Forty years ago, the New Jersey State Supreme Court upheld a ruling that allowed girls to play Little League Baseball. A discrimination lawsuit had been brought by the National Organization for Women on behalf of Maria Pepe, a 12-year-old from Hoboken, N. J., who had been banished by her league when opposing teams protested. And 30 years have passed since the reserve outfielder Victoria Roche, an expat Little Leaguer on a team from Belgium, became the first girl to dig her cleats into the dirt at Williamsport.

"text": "Baseball Field Dimensions The baseball diamond is one of the oldest and most complex pieces of geometric symmetry in all of sports. Of course, not every field is constructed exactly the same; Fenway Park has different dimensions than Dodger Stadium, and both differ substantially from most high school fields, public parks, and youth fields. The main reason for this is that there is no designation for the authorized size of an outfield. In the official rules for Major League Baseball, it is stated that the outfield fence should be at least 250 feet from home plate. A distance of 325 feet or more along the foul lines and 400 feet or more to center field has since become mandatory for any new stadiums. As such, professional fields are all a little different. Even more significant is the fact that those rules only apply to MLB; a field designed for youth baseball or even college baseball is likely to have somewhat (or substantially) shorter fences.click to enlarge However, the outfield fences are where the inconsistencies end, because very specific perimeters are in place for infield dimensions. It must be noted, though, that many leagues and organizations around the world use variations of the dimensions and standards listed below for different levels of youth baseball. However, in some instances, fields do not subscribe exactly to these dimensions (usually due to lack of space or resources). Infield dimensions vary depending on location and governing body, but all are designed to retain or closely mimic the proportions of the following official dimensions."

While other age groups also participate in annual Little League tournaments that lead to their own \"\"World Series\"\" at other sites, the iconic event in South Williamsport focuses on the \"\"major\"\" division, usually defined as the bracket for 11- and 12-year-old players. But many viewers get confused when they see 13-year-olds on the field. That happens because players get assigned to a division based on their age on April 30 and some of them turn 13 during the baseball season. \"\" It's always been confusing for people when they watch the Little League World Series,\"\" said Greece Little League board member Diane Noga. \"\" They're always confused by the age when people announce how old they are,\"\" Noga said.

If you believe adding velocity could be critical to your success, check out my proven programs for pitchers of all ages.

"text": "Fitness Sports Softball and Baseball for Kids This classic youth sport still has appeal By Catherine Holecko Updated February 23, 2018Share Pin Email Print Cavan Images / Iconica / Getty Images Softball and baseball for kids may lag behind some other youth sports in popularity. But this all-American classic could still be a home-run hit for your child. The Basics of Softball and Baseball In these sports, two teams of nine players alternate between offense and defense. Offensive players try to score runs by hitting the baseball with a bat, then running around the bases on the diamond while the defensive players try to field the ball. While on offense, players only bat and run the bases. On defense, they play positions including pitcher (who throws the ball to the batter), catcher (who catches the ball and returns it to the pitcher), and outfielders who try to catch the ball and throw it to the bases to prevent the runner from successfully arriving at the base. Season when played: Spring and summer (elite teams or those in warmer climates may play year-round). Team sport: Both boys and girls can play baseball on kids' co-ed teams, and both boys and girls can also play softball. Single-sex scholastic teams are also common, with the familiar junior varsity and varsity set-up. Exceptional athletes can go on to play professional baseball or softball."

( He was said to be 35 in 1952, but he was then said to be 36 in 1957 when he bought his house in Connecticut.) Ricky was born in West Havana, Cuba. The actual date of Ricky's birth is unknown, but it was sometime either in late May or early-to-mid June. Ricky is a Gemini, so even though his actual birthdate isn't ever given, it is possible to narrow down the possibilities of what month his birthday is in. Ricky is very close to his Uncle Alberto, and it's possible that one of Ricky's middle names was chosen to honor this uncle. Not much is known about his childhood in Cuba, but he often talks about it fondly. He was raised on a Cuban cigar farm."

She was a 28-year-old contract player with a string of forgettable films, he, at 23, a dashing, Cuban-horn nightclub bandleader. They married six months later. While she tended a soaring Hollywood career, he toured the country with his rumba band. In time, as depicted in this week’s CBS TV movie Lucy & Desi: Before the Laughter (Feb. 10), the relationship between Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz began to fray with the strain of separation. By 1950 Lucy was starring on radio with actor Richard Denning in the popular CBS show My Favorite Husband. When the network launched a version of the show for the new medium of television, she insisted that Desi be cast as her spouse. The formula was magic. In its six-year run, I Love Lucy, making perfect use of Ball’s vibrant talent and Desi’s behind-the-scenes business savvy, would become the most successful comedy series on TV and earn millions for the couple’s production company, Desilu. Each week 40 million viewers watched the onscreen antics of the Ricardo family."

The movie is a remake, of course, of Al Jolson's 1927 \"\"The Jazz Singer,\"\" which was the first commercially successful talking picture. The remake has played with time in an interesting way: It sets the story in the present, but it places the characters in some kind of time warp. Their behavior seems decades out of date, and some scenes are totally inexplicable in any context. Advertisement For example: In the film, Diamond plays a young Jewish cantor at his father's synagogue. He is married, he has apparently settled down to a lifetime of religion. But he also writes songs for a black group-and when one of the quartet gets sick, Diamond takes his place, appearing in a black nightclub in blackface. Oh yeah?"

Some cannot fight the urge anymore and decide it is time to drop the corporate job and put on a military uniform. There are age limits however for those who line up at the recruiter's office a little late in life. Here is a typical question that often occurs with young men and women in their late twenties and early thirties about military service: What Is the Maximum Age to Become an Officer in the Military? The maximum age for a commission is age 35. It is because a military officer must be able to have 20 years of service, to be retirement eligible by the maximum retirement age of 55. There are a few exceptions: Military medical officers and chaplains can be commissioned up to the age of 47 with waivers into their 50s (they also don't have to retire by age 55). Depending upon the need for doctors, psychologists, chaplains (all faiths), and legal officers as well, the maximum age can be waived. Those with prior enlisted service can receive waivers (as long as they can retire with 20 years of military service by age 55). Of course, there are exceptions to every rule as many senior officers serve well past the age 55 with 30 plus years of service."

"text": "\"News Air Force Raises Enlistee Age Limit From 27 to 39Stars and Stripes By Chris Carroll WASHINGTON — Thanks to a new Air Force policy announced Tuesday, enlisted recruits can now experience the joys of basic training in their late 30s. The Air Force raised the maximum age for enlisted accession from 27 to 39, meaning it may now be the best choice for those who feel the call to military service later in life. The maximum age for Army enlisted recruits is 35, while the Navy and Marines cap recruit ages at 34 and 28, respectively. Under federal law, the oldest recruit any military branch can enlist is 42, although each service sets its own policy within that limit. Annette Crawford, a spokeswoman for the Air Force Recruiting Service at Joint Base San Antonio-Randolph, Texas, said officials would be watching to see whether the aches and pains of approaching middle age are too much for older recruits. \"\" With the change, if we see a higher initial training attrition or increased physical injuries ... the Air Force recruiting commander can set a more restrictive age if necessary,\"\" she said. The increased maximum age is for all Air Force enlisted occupations rather than being targeted at increasing accessions in certain areas, she said. The new policy comes at a time of a declining defense budget, a shrinking military and falling recruiting goals, however. From 2009 to 2013, the number of recruits dropped from nearly 32,000 to just over 26,000. While recruiting goals for 2014 are still being finalized, they’re likely to fall again."

"text": "\"Military Pay & Benefits Pay & Finances Understanding Military Retirement Pay Share Flip Pin Share Email•••By Rod Powers Updated March 30, 2018The military retirement pay system used to be easy to understand: You put in 20 years, and you got 50 percent of your base pay immediately upon retirement. You put in more than 20 years and you got 2.5 percent more for each year of active duty after 20 years (up to 75 percent). During the draw-down, Congress decided military retirement pay was too simple and decided to complicate it. Congress started with small changes, moving the annual Cost-of-Living Allowance to January 1st, instead of October 1st, but then got serious and dug in to make some major changes. Here are some basics of the military retirement pay system that you should be aware of: For Navy and Marine Corps members, you are considered to be a \"\"retired member\"\" for classification purposes if you are an enlisted member with over 30 years service, or a warrant or commissioned officer. Enlisted Navy and Marine Corps members with less than 30 years service are transferred to the Fleet Reserve/Fleet Marine Corps Reserve and their pay is referred to as \"\"retainer pay\"\". Air Force and Army members with over 20 years service are all classified as retired and receive retired pay. When a Navy or Marine Corps member completes 30 years, including time on the retired rolls in receipt of retainer pay, the Fleet Reserve status is changed to retired status, and they begin receiving retired pay. Don't become confused. The above is for information purposes only."

Maximum Age Requirements To Join The Military Share Flip Pin Share Email•••By Stew Smith Updated April 21, 2017One of the most frequently asked questions recruiters get asked is what are the maximum age limits to enlist in the military service. There is an age limit that disqualifies certain ages from joining the military. However, the age limit is higher that you may think. If you are over this age limit, you are not qualified for service. But, if you keep pushing and proving to the recruiters that your experience and physical fitness levels are acceptable, you could be eligible for an age waiver. The most frequently asked question is the following: Question: What is the maximum age to enlist in the Military? Across the United States Armed Forces, the maximum age for enlistment for someone who has never served in the military before depends on the branch. For the Army, the maximum age is 35.

If you don't meet those standards, you may not be able to sign up or go to basic training. The requirements are different for men and women, and are bracketed by minimum and maximum weights per age. It's all for a reason. Basic training is tough -- you need to be in good enough shape to have a good chance at success. Height Measurements The Army calculates your ideal target weight using your height as a basis. For example, if you're a female candidate between the ages of 17 and 20 -- the age of a typical recruit -- and 60 inches tall, your target weight ranges from 97 to 128 pounds. These measurements are taken in stocking feet with your chin parallel to the floor. You will be standing at attention, or in a semi-rigid posture."

This report updates the following reports on this topic: 2004-R-0219 and 2008-R-0413. SUMMARYConnecticut ' s income tax excludes (1) 75% or 100% of federally taxable Social Security income, depending on the taxpayer ' s federal adjusted gross income (AGI); (2) 100% of railroad retirement benefits; and (3) 50% of federally taxable military retirement benefits. Connecticut has no exemptions for other types of pension income. According to a 2009 survey by the National Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL), of the 41 states with personal income taxes, all but four (Minnesota, Nebraska, Rhode Island, and Vermont) have at least one state income tax exemption for some pension and retirement income. The most common exemptions are for Social Security and military pensions. Many states exempt federal, state, and local government pensions (often with limitations) and 24 states exempt some private pension income. Alabama, Hawaii, Illinois, Mississippi, and Pennsylvania exempt virtually all pension income from their state income taxes. CONNECTICUT TAX ON PENSION INCOMEExcept for Social Security, railroad retirement, and military retirement benefits, Connecticut ' s state income tax treats income from public and private pensions the same as any other income.

S. military in their late teens or early to mid-twenties. As of 2013, the average enlistment age for people joining the Army was 20.7 years. Each of the four military service branches and the Coast Guard also have their own maximum age standards for enlistment or officer commissioning. So while the maximum military enlistment age set by Congress is 42 years, if you're 35 or older you might have a tougher time trying to enlist. Maximum Enlistment Ages The military services and the Coast Guard are allowed by Congress to set their own particular maximum enlistment and officer commissioning ages. The Air Force has the lowest maximum enlistment age at 27 years, though officer maximum commissioning age varies by career field. The Navy's maximum enlistment age is 34 years, with varying officer commissioning ages as well. The Marine Corps sets its maximum enlistment and officer commissioning age at 28 years, though all the services are allowed to grant age waivers. Age Waiver Requests Though you technically can join the military up to age 42, if you're 35 or over you'll need an age waiver if you've never been in the military before. Normally, military recruiters prepare and forward age waiver requests, with a yes-or-no recommendation for prospective recruits exceeding enlistment or commissioning age limits."

After conducting some research, it appears that the answer is not that simple. I can see why this is a frequent question. I found some insightful information but I offer this disclaimer: Anyone wanting to join the USCG should seek the counsel of a USCG recruiter. Each person is a unique situation with many individual factors influencing whether or not s/he can join the USCG. With that said, here is what I found…Currently, US Code Title 10 Chapter 31 Section 505 sets the minimum age to join the military at 17 and the maximum age at 42. However, each military service is allowed to set more strict standards. The USCG, in fact, does vary its age restrictions depending on whether you enlist or receive a commission, whether you go on active or reserve duty, and whether you have prior military service. For active duty... The maximum age to enlist is 27 or up to age 32 for those who attend advanced training school directly upon enlistment.

"text": "\"UNIFORM CODE OF MILITARY JUSTICEThe Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) was enacted by Congress in 1950 (10 U. S. C. A. § 801 et seq.) to establish a standard set of procedural and substantive criminal laws for all the U. S. military services. ( It went into effect the following year.) The UCMJ applies to all members of the military, including those on active duty, students at military academies, prisoners of war, and, in some cases, retired or reserve personnel. The UCMJ changed military law in several ways, especially by providing substantial procedural safeguards for an accused, such as the right to be represented by counsel, to be informed of the nature of the accusation, to remain silent, and to be told of these rights. Military law exists separately from civilian law. The rights of individuals serving in the armed services are not as extensive as civilians rights because the military is regulated by the overriding demands of discipline and duty. Recognizing this need for a separate body of regulations to govern the military, Article I, Section 8, Clause 14, of the Constitution empowers Congress \"\"to make Rules for the Government and Regulation of the land and naval Forces. \"\" Until the enactment of the UCMJ, the Army and Navy each had its own system of military justice, known as the Articles of War in the Army and the Articles for the Government of the Navy. The UCMJ ensures that any accused member of the armed services will be subject to the same substantive charges and procedural rules and that he or she will be guaranteed identical procedural safeguards."

Fitness is essential to the day-to-day effectiveness and combat readiness of the Marine Corps. The habits of self-discipline required to gain and maintain a high level of physical fitness are inherent to the Marine Corps way of life and must be a part of the character of every Marine. Those who aspire to become Marines must first pass the Initial Strength Test (IST), and all Marines are required to pass an annual Physical Fitness Test (PFT) and Combat Fitness Test (CFT). Here is the sequence of events. Pull-up The maximum standards have changed.

"text": "Are Children Included in TSA Precheck?by Matilda | Jan 27, 2018 | Family Travel, Tips | 5 comments With lines at security getting longer recently, more people will be looking into getting TSA Pre Check. I love having TSA Precheck benefits and have written about how to apply for TSA Precheck and Global Entry (Global Entry includes TSA Precheck). A few readers have asked a question in the comments that I think many families would find useful: Does TSA Pre Check extend to children traveling with you? The answer is yes for children 12 years old or younger. If you have TSA Precheck benefits, you can bring your kids age 12 or under with you through the TSA Precheck lane. According to the TSA website:“Children ages 12 and younger may use the TSA Pre✓® lane when traveling with a parent or guardian who has the indicator on their boarding pass. Travelers 13 and older who do not have a TSA Pre✓® boarding pass must go through standard security lanes or apply”However, if your child is traveling with a parent or guardian that does not have TSA Precheck, they would not have your TSA Precheck benefits. Can Minors Apply For TSA Precheck? Yes. There is no age restriction to apply for TSA Precheck."

"text": "How to Get TSA Pre Check: A Guide on How Best to Applyby The Travel Sisters | Dec 19, 2017 | Tips | 63 comments We love having TSA Pre Check because it makes it so much easier and faster going through airport security. We have found that TSA Precheck is worth the time and expense of the application process and would recommend it to anyone flying from US airports more than once a year. If you are thinking of applying for TSA Precheck, it is important to know that there 4 different ways to get TSA Precheck (each with different fees and eligibility requirements). To help you decide what is the best way to get TSA Precheck for you, below is a comparison of all 4 trusted traveler programs. What is TSA Precheck? For those unfamiliar with TSA Pre-Check, qualifying for TSA Pre-Check on a flight allows you to go through security without removing your shoes, belt, light outerwear, laptop and bag with liquids. There is often a separate line, which is usually shorter and faster. We’ve read a few complaints about TSA Pre Check lines sometimes being longer than regular lines but that’s never been the case for us. Please note: TSA Pre✓ is only available when flying on certain airlines – the current list of airlines can be found on the TSA’s website at https://www.tsa.gov/precheck. How to Get TSA Precheck If you would like to sign up for TSA Pre Check, you can apply for TSA Pre Check directly OR you can apply for one of the other 3 trusted traveler programs that also include TSA Pre Check benefits."

( Reuters/Danny Moloshok)If you’ve been thinking about applying for any of the US government’s expedited screening programs for frequent fliers—Global Entry, TSA Pre Check, and the like—don’t put it off any longer. The process is easier than you might imagine, and the benefits are as good as people say. We’ll take you through all the information you need. Which program is right for me? Global Entry: It’s the most expensive program, at $100 for five years, but comes with the best benefits: You can skip the lines at passport control and customs when entering the United States and also enjoy TSA Pre Check, Nexus, and Sentri (explained below). The process of applying for Global Entry, which is administered by US Customs and Border Protection, also tends to be faster than the other programs. Who’s eligible: US citizens and permanent residents, and citizens of Germany, the Netherlands, Panama, South Korea, and Mexico. But only Americans can get the Pre Check benefits. TSA Pre Check: TSA stands for the Transportation Security Administration, the people who screen you and your carry-on baggage."

The TSA has programs in place for navigating security with a little more ease; you just have to pick the right one for you. Here’s a breakdown of TSA Pre-Check, Global Entry and Nexus. TSA PRE-CHECK• For U. S. citizens and lawful permanent residents• $85 for a five-year membership• Apply online and then make an appointment at one of several enrollment centers around the country to provide fingerprints and identification.• No passport required• Mostly for frequent and business travelers who can go through separate security lines and leave on their shoes and belts, and keep their laptops in the bag.• Adults approved for Pre-Check can go through security with minors ages 12 and under, even if that minor child has not gone through a Pre-Check application on his own. GLOBAL ENTRY• For U. S. citizens, lawful permanent residents, Dutch citizens, South Korean citizens, Mexican nationals and Canadian citizens and residents who already are part of the NEXUS program.• Passport required, or lawful permanent resident card.• $100 for a five-year membership. Even if you think you might never travel internationally, it would behoove you to pay the extra $15 from the Pre-Check program to Global Entry.• Apply online and then make an appointment at one of several enrollment centers around the country to provide fingerprints and identification, and to be interviewed. You cannot be qualified for Global Entry without the in-person interview.• Global Entry is somewhat similar to Pre-Check in that the goal is to get you through customs quickly. This is a U. S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) program that expedites clearance for pre-approved, low-risk international travelers upon arrival in the United States."

"text": "\"By Andrew Moseman May 20, 2016 494Getty Images No, you're not just imagining things. The security line at the airport is getting worse. Last weekend in Chicago, lines at the TSA checkpoint stretched back two to three hours, causing hundreds of passengers who showed up in the recommended amount of time to miss their flights. Things are going to get even worse this summer. The TSA has been laying some of the blame on the flying public, putting on demos to show how illegal items slow down the line. But Congress and the TSA itself deserve their share of the blame for this mess, too. If you have to fly, then there's no escape from the madness—except, maybe, getting yourself into that TSA Pre-Check line. It may not be lightning fast, especially as more people sign up for the program seeking refuge from the nightmare of the normal security line. But it helps.

Abbey Chase | August 20, 2014If you travel frequently, streamlining the process is essential to getting in and out of airports (and to wherever you're going) as quickly as possible. For domestic and international travelers, Global Entry and TSA Pre Check have made clearing security and customs much easier, allowing you to skip the lines at both. Here's what you need to know about the two programs and how to get them. Global Entry vs. TSA Pre Check: The Basics Global Entry is run by U. S. Customs and Border Protection and allows “pre-approved, low risk” travelers an expedited means of clearing customs upon reentering the country. Travelers with Global Entry use kiosks that read their passports, fingerprints, and customs declarations, allowing them to bypass the customs official and the accompanying line. Though this is primarily to benefit travelers coming into the country, some international customs authorities recognize Global Entry in some capacity. TSA Pre Check is another Trusted Traveler Program designed to make clearing security at airports much easier. Simply put, Global Entry is designed to expedite the customs process, while TSA Pre Check does the same for the security screening process."

"text": "Both childhood absence epilepsy and juvenile absence epilepsy are associated with typical absence seizures. These syndromes may cause other types of seizures as well. Childhood absence epilepsy begins at the age of five or six and usually goes away once the child is an adult. Juvenile absence epilepsy starts when the child is around 12 years old, and may continue for the rest of the child’s life. What are other terms for absence epilepsy? Other terms for absence epilepsy that you may come across include:absence seizure disorderakinetic petit malminor epilepsypetit mal epilepsypykno-epilepsypyknolepsypyknoleptic petit maltrue petit mal What causes absence epilepsy? Both childhood and juvenile absence epilepsy are idiopathic generalized epilepsy syndromes. The child’s brain will appear normal on imaging (MRI or CT scan) but he may in fact have very small changes in the brain at the cellular level. There is a strong genetic component to childhood absence epilepsy. It has not been tied to a single gene."

These incidents usually have occurred during the first six months of treatment. Serious or fatal hepatotoxicity may be preceded by non-specific symptoms such as malaise, weakness, lethargy, facial edema, anorexia, and vomiting. In patients with epilepsy, a loss of seizure control may also occur. Patients should be monitored closely for appearance of these symptoms. Serum liver tests should be performed prior to therapy and at frequent intervals thereafter, especially during the first six months [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS ]. Children under the age of two years are at a considerably increased risk of developing fatal hepatotoxicity, especially those on multiple anticonvulsants, those with congenital metabolic disorders, those with severe seizure disorders accompanied by mental retardation, and those with organic brain disease. When Depakene products are used in this patient group, they should be used with extreme caution and as a sole agent. The benefits of therapy should be weighed against the risks.

"text": "This epilepsy syndrome is rare and may be difficult to diagnose. It is sometimes mistaken for a much more common type of epilepsy called childhood absence epilepsy. In EMA, most children start having seizures around 2 or 3 years of age. However, because the absences last only one to 3 seconds (rarely up to 4) and may not be noticed by the family, it may not be diagnosed until much later. Other names for eyelid myoclonia with absences (EMA)Jeavons syndrome Symptoms As the name suggests, the main seizure type is a very brief absence. This usually lasts just one to 3 seconds (rarely up to 4). At the same time as the absence, the eyelids or eyeballs may quickly roll or, more usually, jerk backwards and upwards so that the white part of the eyes is seen. This is the ‘eyelid myoclonia’ part of the seizure. The quick upward jerk of the eyelids in this epilepsy syndrome is different to the eyelid flickering or fluttering that happens in many children with childhood or juvenile absence epilepsy or other epilepsy syndromes. Also, the absences and eyelid flickering in childhood absence epilepsy usually last for between 10 and 15 seconds."

Epilepsy is a neurological condition involving the brain that makes people more susceptible to having recurrent seizures. It is one of the most common disorders of the nervous system and affects people of all ages, races, and ethnic background. Almost 2.2 million Americans live with epilepsy. Anything that interrupts the normal connections between nerve cells in the brain can cause a seizure. This includes a high fever, low blood sugar, high blood sugar, alcohol or drug withdrawal, or a brain concussion. Under these circumstances, anyone can have one or more seizures. However, when a person has two or more seizures, he or she is considered to have epilepsy. There are many possible causes of epilepsy, including an imbalance of nerve-signaling chemicals called neurotransmitters, tumors, strokes, and brain damage from illness or injury, or some combination of these.

A: The word “Epilepsy” is derived from a Greek word meaning “a condition of being overcome, seized, or attacked.” People used to believe seizures were caused by a demon and epilepsy became known as a sacred disease. Unfortunately, myths and fears still surround epilepsy, resulting in misconceptions about the disorder. Unaddressed, these concerns make the goal of living a normal life with epilepsy far more difficult than it needs to be. Simply put, the word “Epilepsy” means nothing more than the tendency to have seizures. Q: Is epilepsy a disease? A: Epilepsy is not a disease. It is a sign or symptom of an underlying neurological disorder. Q: What is a seizure?"

D., University of California, San Francisco, School of Medicine, San Francisco, California Am Fam Physician. 1998 Apr 1;57 (7):1589-1600. See related patient information handout on managing epilepsy, written by the authors of this article. While the evaluation and treatment of patients with seizures or epilepsy is often challenging, modern therapy provides many patients with complete seizure control. After a first seizure, evaluation should focus on excluding an underlying neurologic or medical condition, assessing the relative risk of seizure recurrence and determining whether treatment is indicated. Successful management of patients with recurrent seizures begins with the establishment of an accurate diagnosis of epilepsy syndrome followed by treatment using an appropriate medication in a manner that optimizes efficacy. The goal of therapy is to completely control seizures without producing unacceptable medication side effects. Patients who do not achieve complete seizure control should be referred to an epilepsy specialist, since new medications and surgical treatments offer patients unprecedented options in seizure control."

Diseases of the brain characterized by an enduring predisposition to generate epileptic seizures are collectively called epilepsy.

Additionally, there are a number of conditions that look like epileptic seizures but are not. A first seizure generally does not require long term treatment with anti-seizure medications unless there is a specific problem on either electroencephalogram or brain imaging.

Epilepsy is a condition that causes recurrent seizures. There are several types of epileptic seizures. Many of them can be treated with anti-seizure medications. Drugs used to treat seizures are called antiepileptic drugs (AEDs). According to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, there are more than 20 prescription AEDs available. Your options depend on your age, your lifestyle, the type of seizures you have, and how often you have seizures. If you’re a woman, they also depend on your chance of pregnancy."

"text": "Absence seizures: Causes, Symptoms and Treatment By Modasta Editorial | Updated on: November 12, 2017 | Published on: Aug 11 2016Absence seizure is a type of epilepsy (fits) disorder manifesting as sudden, brief spells (usually less than 15 seconds) of staring or lapse of consciousness. This kind of seizure is more commonly seen in children than in adults and are caused because of abnormal electrical activity in the brain. Causes The nerve cells in the brain normally produce electrical impulses to communicate with different parts of the nervous system. Seizures are caused because of abnormal electrical discharges from the brain. During the episodes of absence seizures, these altered electrical waves typically occur at the rate of three spike/wave discharges per second pattern. Altered levels of brain neurotransmitters (chemical messengers) may also be present in those with seizures. Absence seizures are seen mostly under the age of 20, usually in children aged 6-12 years. It can present in older teens and adults, but the incidence is very low. No underlying cause can be identified in most cases of absence seizures. There may be a genetic predisposition in many children."

Anyone can develop epilepsy. Epilepsy affects both males and females of all races, ethnic backgrounds and ages. Seizure symptoms can vary widely. Some people with epilepsy simply stare blankly for a few seconds during a seizure, while others repeatedly twitch their arms or legs. Having a single seizure doesn't mean you have epilepsy. At least two unprovoked seizures are generally required for an epilepsy diagnosis. Treatment with medications or sometimes surgery can control seizures for the majority of people with epilepsy. Some people require lifelong treatment to control seizures, but for others, the seizures eventually go away. Some children with epilepsy may outgrow the condition with age."

Myoclonic seizures, often called myoclonic jerks, are common but not always present. Over time seizures present without fever, illness or heat triggers. Seizures are frequent and resistant to treatment. The first seizure is often associated with vaccine administration at six months of age.

Characters traverse seas and walk the length of Westeros, but fans see these events occur in hour-long chunks over the course of multiple seasons. Bran's been unable to walk since Season 1, which means viewers haven't seen him on his feet in over five years. Does that mean Bran, himself, also hasn't walked in five years?

The White Walkers are mostly called Others in the books, especially by the people of the Seven Kingdoms. It is the wildlings that refer to them as 'White Walkers'. In the TV series, Will discovers the wildlings massacred and their bodies brutalized. In the book, he says they appeared to be sleeping and likely froze to death. There is no mentioning in the book that the wildlings' corpses have been arranged in any pattern. The White Walkers are of different appearance in the TV series."

Believed by many to be legends, they have returned and have been seen by several sworn brothers of the Night's Watch and countless wildlings, though few living south of the Wall seem to believe they still exist and are a threat. The White Walkers are thousands of years old, from the time preceding the Age of Heroes. Born of powerful and untested magic, they were created to protect the Children of the Forest from the First Men, who had waged war on them ever since they had arrived from Essos. However, the White Walkers eventually broke free of the Children's control and became the most feared creatures in Westeros, posing a threat to anything living. Eight thousand years before Robert's Rebellion, the longest winter in history fell on the entire world which lasted a whole generation. In the darkness and cold of the Long Night, the White Walkers descended upon Westeros from the Far North, killing all in their path and reanimating the dead as wights to fight in their armies."

"text": "Game On Update: New Game of Thrones Information Adds Fuel to the “Jon Snow Lives” Conspiracyby Joanna Robinson June 23, 2015 7:25 pm Courtesy of HBO. Update July 5, 5:52 P. M.: Since this original article was published, Kit Harington’s Game of Thrones co-star, actress Emilia Clarke, went on record saying she thinks there’s a ”50/50“ chance Jon Snow will come back from the dead. That story (coupled with more alleged sightings of Kit Harington in Belfast—a popular Game of Thrones filming location) had enough legs that fans of both the HBO series and Lord Commander Snow were ready to jump all over the fact that Harington appeared at Wimbledon this weekend with his long, luscious locks looking very Westeros-ready. Take a look at those luxurious curls in action on July 2, before reading five more compelling reasons why we’re not quite ready to believe Jon Snow is gone for good in the original article below. By Ian Walton/Getty Images It’s only been a little over a week since the Game of Thrones finale but the speculation over the fate of main character Jon Snow is going strong. Is he really gone for good as the show’s creators and stars insist? Or can we still hold out hope that, even on a bloodthirsty show like Game of Thrones, there is some possibility for Kit Harington’s return? Well, new information, including exciting Season 6 casting info and a big change for the upcoming Comic-Con panel, should be enough to keep hope alive for Jon Snow truthers out there. The Comic-Con Panel: Just today HBO announced who would appear on the July 10 Game of Thrones panel at Comic-Con. There’s a pretty decent lineup of actors in attendance: Alfie Allen (Theon/Reek ), John Bradley (Samwell Tarly), Gwendoline Christie (Brienne of Tarth), Liam Cunningham (Ser Davos Seaworth), Natalie Dormer (Margaery Tyrell), Conleth Hill (Varys), Hannah Murray (Gilly), Sophie Turner (Sansa Stark), Carice van Houten (Melissandre), and Maisie Williams (Arya Stark)."

"text": "Helen Sloan/ HBOJames Hibberd June 26, 2016 AT 12:00 PM EDTUPDATE: Jon Snow’s father has now been seemingly confirmed by HBO.com. While the season 6 finale very firmly announced that Snow’s mother is Lyanna Stark, the identity of his father was left a bit vague — we all naturally assumed he was sired by Rhaegar Targaryen, but were weren’t 100 percent sure. But a new infographic on the network’s official Making Game of Thrones website clearly links Rhaegar as Snow’s father. We also might now know Jon Snow’s real first name. We also went and asked the finale’s director, Miguel Sapochnik, about the identity of Snow’s dad, he said he couldn’t outright tell us. But then he hinted, “I reckon if you turn the sound right up and listen carefully it might just give you the answer you need…” We all originally heard Ned’s dying sister say: “His name is…” and then just a whisper. One theory making the rounds online is that Lynanna is saying the name “Jaehaerys” — which is also the name of two previous Targaryen kings. It’s not certain, obviously, but if Snow’s first name is Jaehaerys, and Ned needed to hide his identity, “Jon” is pretty seamless shorthand. PREVIOUS : He’s a bastard no more! Game of Thrones confirmed a major fan theory Sunday night, finally revealing (at least half of) Jon Snow’s real parentage."

The novels heavily imply that the raven (a three-eyed crow in that version of the story) was previously Lord Brynden Rivers, also known as \"\"Lord Bloodraven.\"\" Rivers was born a little over a century before the events of the first season, the bastard child of Aegon IV Targaryen and a noblewoman named Melissa Blackwood."

"text": "Helen Hunt Date of Birth: 15 June 1963Become a fan Helen Hunt biography: A precociously talented youngster, Helen Hunt was drawing paychecks as a television actress from the age of ten. Before she was 17, she had appeared as a regular on two series, Swiss Family Robinson (1975) and The Fitzpatricks (1977). Hunt proved she was more than just a workaday child actor with her starring performance in the fact-based 1981 TV movie The Miracle of Kathy Miller, in which she played a high school athlete who overcame severe mental and physical damage brought on by a highway accident. While she had been appearing in films as early as Rollercoaster in 1977, Hunt was never groomed as a star player, and it is possible that her resemblance to another child actress, Jodie Foster, held her back from more important roles. After taking on her first adult role in the 1982 sitcom It Takes Two, Hunt's film assignments improved, with sizable roles in Girls Just Want to Have Fun (1985), Peggy Sue Got Married (1986), Project X (1987), Next of Kin (1989), and The Waterdance (1991). She also gained a small measure of cult status by appearing in a brace of science fiction films, including Trancers II (1991) and Trancers III (1992). That same year, Hunt landed her longest-lasting acting assignment to date, as the co-star of the Paul Reiser-created comedy series Mad About You. During the show's seven-year run, she won both Emmy and Golden Globe awards for her portrayal of Jamie Buchman. In 1996, Hunt had her most successful film role to date in the blockbuster Twister. The following year, she topped that when she received a Best Actress Oscar for playing a caring waitress and single mother who befriends acerbic, obsessive-compulsive author Melvin Udall (Jack Nicholson, who also won an Oscar for his performance) in As Good As It Gets."

It taught us that we should live with our friends, hang out in coffee houses 67% of the time, and learn to recognise when we were actually on a break from our partner. It’s already been a staggering 10 years since we heard ‘I got off the plane’ for the first time, and most of the major cast are still moseying about in the limelight. Jennifer Aniston has been in pretty much every rom com since 2004, Courteney Cox has been taking selfies with Ed Sheeran and David Schwimmer has been busy directing a string of television shows and films.

"text": "\"Adolescent Sexual Behavior: Demographics Positive Trends and Areas in Need of Improvement Click here to download a PDF version of this publication. Many adults are uncomfortable with the idea of teen sexuality, and prefer to remain in ignorance or denial. But in the United States, 46 percent of all high school age students, and 62 percent of high school seniors, have had sexual intercourse; almost nine million teens have already had sex. 1,2 It is critically important for adults to address adolescent sexuality realistically and to recognize that many factors, including socioeconomic status, race or ethnicity, family structure, educational aspirations, and life experiences, affect young people's behavior. Young people begin to have sex at about the same age in most industrialized countries.3 Adolescent sexual development is important for the process of identity formation and the establishment of romantic and social relationships among peers. 4,5,6Data on Adolescents Come from Many Sources, and May Define Adolescence Differently The term \"\"adolescence\"\" is a concept first popularized in the early 20th century by researchers such as psychologist G. Stanley Hall. Generally it refers to the period of transition from childhood to young adulthood, but its exact meaning is imprecise. Researchers often use the terms \"\"adolescents\"\", \"\"teens\"\", and \"\"youth\"\" interchangeably.7 \"\"Minors\"\" is also sometimes used specifically for those youth who by law are considered unable to give consent (typically under age 18). In some studies, \"\"youth\"\" may include children as young as age 10 through young adults as old as age 25. 7No single primary data source exists to capture all dimensions of adolescent sexual behavior."

"text": "Tuesday, July 01, 2003Beyond Raging Hormones: The Tinderbox in the Teenage Brain By: Ronald Dahl, M. D. Puberty brings hormonal changes, intense feelings, and craving for arousal, but, writes Dahl, these alone cannot explain the lapses in judgment that shock parents and make adolescents highly vulnerable to addiction, suicide, violence, and other destructive behaviors. We must understand the very different timetables at work in adolescents, whose brain development may not be complete until their twenties but for whom, in most societies, puberty has been arriving earlier. Teenagers write immortal poetry; crusade to overthrow dictatorships; volunteer for suicide bombings; drive (or take drugs or have sex) as though they were invincible; think the unthinkable in science and philosophy; join cults; and dedicate their lives to peace, monastic contemplation, or the eradication of poverty. They are successively inspired, alienated, infuriated, devastated, impassioned, and inconsolably bored. To begin to comprehend how so much vulnerability and potential can coexist in one brief interval of life, writes Ronald Dahl, M. D., we must look beyond the intensity of the passions and craving for excitement that characterize so many adoles cents. What is neuroscience discovering about the adolescent’s brain and emotions, the several sets of hormonal changes that come with puberty, and the vexed social role of those who are neither children nor adults?“Youth are heated by Nature as drunken men by wine.” — Aristotle In adolescence, physical health is approaching its peak. Adolescents are not only bigger and stronger than children, but also show developmental increases in a wide range of mental and physical abilities, including reaction time, reasoning skills, problem solving, immune function, and capacity to cope with many kinds of stresses and challenges. Yet, during this period of resilient health, burgeoning energy, and new-found capabilities, we witness a dramatic increase in death and disability: soaring rates of serious accidents, suicide, homicide, aggression and violence, use of alcohol and illegal drugs, emotional disorders, and health consequences of risky sexual behavior. Behind this paradox lies the complex story of adolescent development."

International Council of Psychologists. San Diego, USA, August 11-14, 2007 Measuring Adolescents’ Moral Judgment: An Evaluation of the Sociomoral Reflection Measure – Short Form Objective (SRM-SFO). Two of the most well-known and widely used instruments to measure moral reasoning in adolescents and others are the SRM-SF (Basinger, Gibbs, & Fuller, 1995; Gibbs, Basinger, & Fuller, 1992; Gibbs, Basinger, Grime, & Snarey, in press) and the SROM-SF (Basinger & Gibbs, 1987; Beem, Brugman, Høst & Tavecchio, 2004). The SRM-SF is a dilemma-free interview measure, whereas the SROM-SF questionnaire includes two moral dilemmas. The SRM-SF elicits the production of moral reasoning, whereas the SROM-SF offers stage-typed reasons that persons may recognize and select as close to their own way of reasoning. Both instruments have been found to be reliable and valid measures of moral reasoning in adolescents, although they differ somewhat in their strengths and weaknesses. Recently, Stams et al. ("

Contact with peers is increasingly with other-sex friends (during childhood peer groups are highly segregated) Collectives of peer groups, cliques or crowds emerge Changes in peer relations are related to biological, cognitive, and social transitions of adolescence Cliques Small, tightly knit groups of between 2 and 12 friends, generally of the same sex and age Do you think the work \"\"cliques\"\" has a positive or negative connotation? How cliques structure social networks: Despite the popular image of adolescents as \"\"cliquish,\"\" fewer than half of adolescents are members of cliques Females more likely than males to be members of cliques Adolescents' positions in their school's social network are relatively stable over time Crowds Large, loosely organized groups of young people, composed of several cliques and typically organized around a common shared activity Membership based on reputation and stereotype, rather than actual friendship Examples: \"\"jocks,\"\" \"\"brains,\"\" \"\"nerds,\"\" and \"\"populars\"\" etc... In contrast to cliques, crowds are not settings for adolescents' intimate interactions of friendships Crowds help to locate adolescents (to themselves and to others) within the social structure of the schoolchanges in clique/crowd structure Although early adolescents' activities revolve around same-sex cliques, as adolescence progresses, male and female cliques come together High school peer structure is more differentiated and more permeable as opposed to middle school (often only two groups—popular and unpopular) The salience of peer crowds peaks during mid-adolescence, and then decreases towards later adolescence Parallels development and cognitive changes, particularly to peer pressure As adolescents become more secure in their identity, the need for affiliation with a crowd diminishes.social map of adolescence A model that maps adolescents' crowds along two dimensions: How involved they are in institutions controlled by adults How involved they are in the informal peer culturereference group A group against which an individual compares him or herself Often membership in a crowd is the basis for an adolescents' own identity—what do you think? Was this true in your experience? Because an adolescent's peer group plays such an important role as a reference group and source of identity, the crowd an adolescent affiliates with is likely to influence his or her behavior, activities, and self-conceptionsadolescent crowds and behavior Adolescents often imitate the behavior of high-status peers, the crowd leaders Crowds establish social norms (values and expectations) that members strive to follow When crowd members behave in ways that are consistent with these norms, they are reinforced for doing so; if they don't, they are made fun of or ignored When adolescents are reinforced for following a crowd's norms, they feel better about themselves and further incorporate their crowd membership into their identityadolescents and cliques The most important influence on clique composition is similarity. Age segregation in adolescents' cliques appear to result mostly from the structure of school-unlikely an individual will have friends who are substantially older or younger During early and middle adolescent years, cliques tend to be same sex because initially formed on the basis of shared activities and interests Not until adolescents begin dating that cliques mix Race/ethnicity is not a strong determinant of clique composition during childhood, but like social class, becomes more powerful as adolescents get older By middle/late adolescence, adolescents' peer groups are typically racially and/or ethnically segregated—may be influenced by discriminationcommon interest among friends Adolescent cliques are usually comprised of individuals who are the same age, in the same grade, from the same social class, and of the same race and/or ethnicity Factors that are important to determining clique membership and friendship patterns (beyond above) are: Orientation toward school: Adolescents and their friends tend to be similar in the attitudes toward school, in their school achievement, and in their educational plans Orientation toward the teen culture: Adolescents and their friends generally listen to the same music, dress alike, spend their leisure time in similar activities, and share patterns of drug/alcohol use Involvement in antisocial activity: Antisocial, aggressive adolescents often gravitate toward each other forming deviant peer groups Gangs: Organized peer groups of antisocial individuals Gangs are also groups of adolescents who are similar in background, share common interests/activities, and use the group to derive sense of identity Gang members tend to be more isolated from family, have more emotional/behavioral problems, and have poorer self-conceptions ROle of Parent in peer groups The process of antisocial peer group formation begins at home during childhood Stems from problematic parent-child relationships (coercive & hostile), leads to antisocial disposition in children, which leads to issues in school (academic and peer failure) When rejected by bulk of classmates, individual seeks out other antisocial peers Side note: even if adolescent has more antisocial friends, better relationships at home and stronger attachment to school will make them less susceptible to peer influence In addition, the crowd an adolescent belongs to is influenced by upbringing—parents play a role in socializing children toward certain values (e.g. athletics or academics) Predispose adolescents towards choosing certain friends or crowdsselection and socialization Research demonstrates that it is a combination of the two, both selection (attracted to each other because of initial similarity) and socialization (as friends they become more similar because they influence each other) And adolescent's behavior can be predicted on the basis of his/her friendship group's profilestability of adolescent friendships Cliques show moderate stability over the course of the school year—with some members staying, others leaving, and new members joining Cliques become more stable later in high school Even though some clique members leave and are replaced by others, the new members are likely to have the same attitudes and values as former members Which are more stable—same sex or opposite sex friendships? How about male friendships vs. female friendships? The most common causes of broken friendships are jealousy, incompatibility, violations of intimacy, and aggressionpopularity and rejection Although more socially skilled than unpopular teens, there are two forms of popularity that do not always go hand in hand: Sociometric popularity: How well liked an individual is Determined by social skills, friendliness, sense of humor, etc... Perceived popularity: How much status or prestige an individual has Determinants are highly variable, can differ between schools, between groups at the same school—need to understand the social context What are some examples from your high school experience? Predicting peer popularity is complicated by the fact that peer norms change: http://youtu.be/QSa368X1Z2w (21 jump street) When popular adolescents engage in a particular behavior, it often becomes more admireddynamics of popularity An ethnography of the \"\"dirty dozen\"\" at a school—a group of girls that were popular, cool, affluent, talented, yet mean and conceited revealed that meanness was one way that the clique ensured no one member became stuck-up as a result of her popularity OR, if any one member became too popular, the clique would turn on her, undermining her standing with other girls by gossiping, starting rumors, and deliberately attempting to disrupt her friendships: http://youtu.be/3szl AYwh LK8 (mean girls) Although popularity has some costs, advantages of being popular outweigh the disadvantages—more likely to have close and intimate friendships, participate in social activi"

"text": "\"Cognitive development Follow City-Data.com founder on our Forum or @Lech Mazur Photo by: Bruce Rolff Definition Cognitive development is the construction of thought processes, including remembering, problem solving, and decision-making, from childhood through adolescence to adulthood. Description It was once believed that infants lacked the ability to think or form complex ideas and remained without cognition until they learned language. It is now known that babies are aware of their surroundings and interested in exploration from the time they are born. From birth, babies begin to actively learn. They gather, sort, and process information from around them, using the data to develop perception and thinking skills. Cognitive development refers to how a person perceives, thinks, and gains understanding of his or her world through the interaction of genetic and learned factors. Among the areas of cognitive development are information processing, intelligence , reasoning, language development , and memory. Historically, the cognitive development of children has been studied in a variety of ways. The oldest is through intelligence tests, such as the widely used Stanford Binet Intelligence Quotient (IQ) test first adopted for use in the United States by psychologist Lewis Terman (1877–1956) in 1916 from a French model pioneered in 1905. IQ scoring is based on the concept of \"\"mental age,\"\" according to which the scores of a child of average intelligence match his or her age, while a gifted child's performance is comparable to that of an older child, and a slow learner's scores are similar to those of a younger child."

H., Division of Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys PDF Version (158 KB)Healthy People 2010 identified overweight and obesity as 1 of 10 leading health indicators and called for a reduction in the proportion of children and adolescents who are overweight or obese, but the United States has made little progress toward the target goal. Progress toward reducing the national prevalence of overweight and obesity is monitored using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Results from the 2007-2008 NHANES, using measured heights and weights, indicate that an estimated 16.9% of children and adolescents aged 2-19 years are obese. Between 1976-1980 and 1999-2000, the prevalence of obesity increased. Between 1999-2000 and 2007-2008, there was no significant trend in obesity prevalence for any age group. Table 1 shows the increase in obesity that has occurred since 1976-1980. Among preschool children aged 2-5, obesity increased from 5.0% to 10.4% between 1976-1980 and 2007-2008 and from 6.5% to 19.6% among those aged 6-11. Among adolescents aged 12-19, obesity increased from 5.0% to 18.1% during the same period. Figure 1 shows the trends since the 1960s by age group."

Physical Development Adolescents experience a growth spurt, which involves rapid growth of bones and muscles. This begins in girls around the ages of 9-12 and in boys around the ages of 11-14. Sexual maturation (puberty) also begins at this time. During puberty, most adolescents will experience:oilier skin and some acneincreased sweating especially under armsgrowth of pubic and underarm hair, and facial and chest hair in boyschanges in body proportionsmasturbation and fantasies about sexual intimacyin boys, enlargement of testicles, erections, first ejaculation, wet dreams, deepening voicein girls, breast budding, increased vaginal lubrication and the beginning of the menstrual cycle See Re CAPP's edition on Puberty for more information on changes that occur during puberty. The physical changes of early adolescence often lead to: New responses from others In response to these physical changes, young adolescents begin to be treated in a new way by those around them. They may no longer be seen as just children, but as sexual beings to be protected — or targeted (Get Organized: A Guide to Preventing Teen Pregnancy, 1999). They face society's expectations for how young men and women \"\"should\"\" behave. New concern with physical appearance and body image Both adolescent boys and girls are known to spend hours concerned with their physical appearance. They want to \"\"fit in\"\" with their peers yet achieve their own unique style as well."

"text": "Weight Management Facts about obesity in adolescence According to the National Center for Health Statistics, about 20 percent of children ages 6 to 11 in the United States are considered overweight and 18 percent of teens (ages 12 to 19) are overweight. Many more people are now overweight than 15 years ago. This increase is seen in both sexes and all ages. Overweight or obese adolescents are more likely to be overweight or obese adults. What is obesity? Obesity is defined as a generalized accumulation of body fat. Obesity is determined by measuring both the height and weight of the adolescent. An adolescent is considered overweight if he or she has a BMI more than the 85th percentile but less than the 95th percentile for his or her weight. A person is considered obese if the BMI is higher than the 95th percentile for age and gender. Research studies suggest that overweight or obese adolescents may become overweight or obese adults."

When children experience emotions or engage in behaviors that interfere with their happiness and ability to thrive, they may benefit from meeting with a mental health professional such as a therapist or counselor. Parents and children often attend therapy sessions together, as therapy can be a safe space in which to address the thoughts, feelings, and emotions experienced by all members. Developmental Stages from Birth to Adolescence Triggers and Risk Factors Child and Adolescent Mental Health Issues Substance Use in Adolescents Therapy and Counseling for Youth Medication and Therapy for Children and Adolescents Case Examples Developmental Stages from Birth to Adolescence As they grow, children will experience changes in their moods and behaviors. Some of these changes are relatively predictable and, though they may be challenging, most are completely normal aspects of child development. In general, as long as children are behaving in ways that are consistent with their age range, the challenges they experience should not create cause for concern. There are many theories addressing the developmental phases that children go through, and recognizing these phases can be invaluable to parents and caregivers in understanding child behavior and developmental needs. Erik Erikson’s theory outlining the stages of psychosocial development from birth to adulthood is one of the most widely recognized stage-based theories. Erikson, an influential developmental psychologist, identified eight stages in life, five of which take place in childhood and adolescence: Infancy: Trust vs. Mistrust. In the first stage of human development, infants explore the world and learn whether their environment is a safe, predictable place."

As they develop, adolescents and young adults need access to comprehensive and non-stigmatizing information about sexual and reproductive health, support networks to have the pregnancies they want, and high-quality, affordable and confidential contraceptive services and abortion services to avoid the pregnancies they do not want. On average, young people in the United States have sex for the first time at about age 17, but do not marry until their mid-20s. 1 During the interim period of nearly a decade or longer, they may be at heightened risk for unintended pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections (STIs). In 2011–2013, among unmarried 15–19-year-olds, 44% of females and 49% of males had had sexual intercourse. 2 These levels have remained steady since 2002. The proportion of young people having sexual intercourse before age 15 has declined in recent years. In 2011–2013, about 13% of never-married females aged 15–19 and 18% of never-married males in that age-group had had sex before age 15, compared with 19% and 21%, respectively, in 1995. 2,3In 2006–2010, the most common reason that sexually inexperienced adolescents aged 15–19 gave for not having had sex was that it was “against religion or morals” (41% of females and 31% of males). The second and third most common reasons were not having found the right person and wanting to avoid pregnancy."

M. C. is a 16-year-old girl presenting with a complaint of frequent episodes of dizziness that started when she was 13 years of age. The events are characterized by a feeling that she describes as “losing track of her body in space.” The events are brief and last only 1 to 2 seconds. There is no associated change in vision, palpitations, or sweating. Although she does have a sensation of falling, she has not fallen. The events occur multiple times per week and are more frequent around the time of her menses or just before the onset of a headache, which she describes as a prolonged, severe throbbing pain with associated nausea and vomiting that resolve with sleep."

Report abuse Transcript of Adolescence - Physical & Cognitive, Socio-Emotional Adolescence - Physical & Cognitive, Socio-Emotional Physical Development in Adolescence Puberty is the period of several years in which rapid physical growth and psychological changes occur, culminating in sexual maturity. Every person's individual timetable for puberty is influenced primarily by heredity, although environmental factors, such as diet and exercise, also exert some influence. These factors can also contribute to precocious (early development)or delayed puberty. Some of the most significant parts of pubertal development involve distinctive physiological changes in an individual's height, weight, body composition, and circulatory and respiratory systems. These changes are largely influenced by hormonal activity. Hormones play an organizational role, priming the body to behave in a certain way once puberty begins, and an activational role, triggering certain behavioral and physical changes. WHAT IS COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT? Cognitive development refers to the development of the ability to think and reason. Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development includes four stages: sensorimotor, pre-operational, concrete operational, and formal operational."

Approximately 430 young people aged 10 to 24 die every day through interpersonal violence. Road traffic injuries cause an estimated 330 young people to die every day. Overview A great number of young people suffer from illnesses which hinder their ability to grow and develop to their full potential. Many still engage in behaviour that jeopardizes not only their current state of health, but often their health for years to come. Nearly two-thirds of premature deaths and one-third of the total disease burden in adults are associated with conditions or behaviour that began in their youth, including: tobacco and substance use, a lack of physical activity, unprotected sex or exposure to violence."

"text": "Number 651, December 2015 (Replaces Committee Opinion 349, November 2006, Reaffirmed 2017)Committee on Adolescent Health Care The American Academy of Pediatrics endorses this document. This document reflects emerging concepts on patient safety and is subject to change. The information should not be construed as dictating an exclusive course of treatment or procedure to be followed. PDF Format Menstruation in Girls and Adolescents: Using the Menstrual Cycle as a Vital Sign ABSTRACT: Despite variations worldwide and within the U. S. population, median age at menarche has remained relatively stable—between 12 years and 13 years—across well-nourished populations in developed countries. Environmental factors, including socioeconomic conditions, nutrition, and access to preventive health care, may influence the timing and progression of puberty. A number of medical conditions can cause abnormal uterine bleeding, characterized by unpredictable timing and variable amount of flow. Clinicians should educate girls and their caretakers (eg, parents or guardians) about what to expect of a first menstrual period and the range for normal cycle length of subsequent menses. Identification of abnormal menstrual patterns in adolescence may improve early identification of potential health concerns for adulthood. It is important for clinicians to have an understanding of the menstrual patterns of adolescent girls, the ability to differentiate between normal and abnormal menstruation, and the skill to know how to evaluate the adolescent girl patient. By including an evaluation of the menstrual cycle as an additional vital sign, clinicians reinforce its importance in assessing overall health status for patients and caretakers."

In most of the films, he was played by the late Peter Sellers, with one film in which he was played by Alan Arkin and one in which he was played by an uncredited late Roger Moore. In the 2006 Pink Panther revival and its 2009 sequel, he is played by Steve Martin. Sellers is widely regarded as the definitive Chief Inspector Clouseau of pop culture by fans and critics alike. He was born in September 8th, 1920. He is also the inspiration of the main character in a series of short animated cartoons inspired by the titles of the feature films. Though the character in the animated late 1960s series was never given a name, he is clearly based on Clouseau. However, more recent animated depictions of Chief Inspector Clouseau since the 1970s on were redesigned to resemble Sellers, and later Martin, more closely. Contents [ show]Films Original Series The Pink Panther (1963)Jacques Clouseau makes his first appearance as the Inspector in the film The Pink Panther, which was released in Germany in 1963 and the United States in 1964. Clouseau is a bumbling and incompetent police inspector of the French Sûreté, whose investigations are marked with chaos and destruction that he himself largely causes."

It stars Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman, with Jude Law, Loren Dean, Ernest Borgnine, Gore Vidal, and Alan Arkin appearing in supporting roles. [ 2] The film presents a biopunk vision of a future society driven by eugenics where potential children are conceived through genetic manipulation to ensure they possess the best hereditary traits of their parents. [ 3] The film centers on Vincent Freeman, played by Hawke, who was conceived outside the eugenics program and struggles to overcome genetic discrimination to realize his dream of traveling into space. The movie draws on concerns over reproductive technologies which facilitate eugenics, and the possible consequences of such technological developments for society. It also explores the idea of destiny and the ways in which it can and does govern lives. Characters in Gattaca continually battle both with society and with themselves to find their place in the world and who they are destined to be according to their genes. The film’s title is based on the letters G, A, T, and C, which stand for guanine, adenine, thymine, and cytosine, the four nucleobases of DNA. [ 4] It was a 1997 nominee for the Academy Award for Best Art Direction and the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Score."

Argo, the new movie from actor-director Ben Affleck, has mostly been getting raves—including a qualified but fairly strong endorsement from Slate ’s own Dana Stevens, who calls it “a rollicking yarn” and “easily the most cohesive and technically accomplished of Affleck’s three films so far.” But several reviews have also noted just how far the movie departs in certain respects from the historical record. In the movie’s dramatic climax, Stevens writes, the “broadly accurate retelling of real events” gives way to “some fairly whopping dramatic license.” Similarly, New Yorker critic Anthony Lane —who also enjoyed the film—found it a “bit rich” that the movie pokes so much fun at “Hollywood deceitfulness” only to end “with an expert helping of white lies.” Former Slate film critic David Edelstein goes even further: NPR headlined his review “ Argo: Too Good To Be True, Because It Isn’t .”David Haglund David Haglund is the literary editor of New Yorker.com.

"text": "Contactmusic > John Ortiz John Ortiz Follow John Ortiz John Ortiz Quick Links News Pictures Video Film Footage RSSGoing In Style Review Good This is only technically a remake of the iconic 1979 film starring movie icons George Burns, Art Carney and Lee Strasberg. While that film was a bittersweet comedy about old age, this one has a lot less on its mind. Instead, it goes for more populist joys like slapstick and smiley banter, all based on the A-list casting of present-day icons Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman and Alan Arkin. At least they give it some oomph. It all starts when Joe (Caine) is notified by his bank that his mortgage is overdue, but this is only because they tripled the interest rate. And the situation becomes even more desperate when the company where he worked for 40 years is sold to a multinational, which liquidates the pension fund, leaving Joe and his pals Willie and Albert (Freeman and Arkin) in serious trouble. So Joe hatches a crazy scam to steal the money back from the bank, and Willie and Albert go along with it. They get advice from low-level criminal Jesus (John Ortiz) to work out the details. Meanwhile, Willie is undergoing treatment for kidney failure, and his age has left him far down the donor list. And Albert finally gives in to the flirtatious advances of amorous shop-clerk Annie (Ann-Margret)."

"text": "\"Written by Piero Umiliani Date 1968Source Svezia, Inferno e Paradiso ( Sweden, Heaven and Hell )Publisher Edward B. Marks Music Company Frank Oz and Jim Henson performing the song on The Muppet Show.\"\" Mahna Mahna ,\"\" originally titled \"\"Mah-Na Mah-Na,\"\" was written by composer Piero Umiliani for an Italian \"\"mondo\"\" film (exploitative pseudo- documentaries) about life (mostly sex-related) in Sweden, titled Svezia, Inferno e Paradiso ( Sweden, Heaven and Hell ). It is a nonsense song that achieved widespread fame as a classic Muppet sketch. Although it was first performed in a Henson production on Sesame Street by the character who would become Bip Bippadotta and two Anything Muppet girls, the most famous Muppet rendition of the song debuted on The Ed Sullivan Show in 1969, where it was performed by Mahna Mahna and his back-up singers, the Snowths. This version of the skit was restaged many times on a number of variety shows before being featured as the opening number in the premiere episode of The Muppet Show . Regardless of who is singing, the basics of the performance remain the same: a central character starts out conforming to the structure of the song, but falls into improvisational scat passages whenever possible. Although the back-up singers attempt to bring order back to the number, their effort is ultimately futile. The number became popular enough that it was spoofed by the Muppets themselves in a sketch on Muppets Tonight, in which Kermit the Frog complained to his psychiatrist that the Snowths would appear every time he said the word \"\"phenomena. \"\" The Muppets ends with a montage of celebrities performing the classic number with the Snowths. The Muppet Show recording can be heard playing in a car in the official movie trailer ."

"text": "Inspector Clouseau Biography Fictional Ninny Inspector Jacques Clouseau is the comically clumsy French detective of the Pink Panther film series. Clouseau fancies himself a suave master of deduction and disguises, but invariably ends up falling off couches, stumbling over potted plants and creating havoc while baffling interviewees with his ridiculous paté-thick accent. The series relied on the deadpan slapstick skills of Peter Sellers, who played Clouseau in six different films. The first, The Pink Panther was officially released in 1964. Other films included: A Shot in the Dark (1964), Inspector Clouseau (1968, with Alan Arkin as Clouseau), The Return of the Pink Panther (1974), The Pink Panther Strikes Again (1976), Revenge of the Pink Panther (1978), Trail of the Pink Panther (1982, made after Sellers’ death by using old clips), Curse of the Pink Panther (1983, with Roger Moore in a cameo as Clouseau), and Son of the Pink Panther (1993, with Roberto Benigni as Clouseau’s equally clumsy son, also named Jacques). A fresh version of The Pink Panther, starring Steve Martin as Clouseau, was released in 2006. Extra credit The Pink Panther was the name of a priceless jewel stolen in the first film; the jewel didn’t figure in later films, but the Pink Panther name stuck to the series… The original Clouseau film also inspired the Pink Panther cartoon character… A running gag in the films was Clouseau’s hand-to-hand battles with Cato (Burt Kwouk), his karate-happy manservant… Clouseau’s long-suffering boss, Chief Inspector Dreyfus, was played by Herbert Lom in the early films… The second Clouseau film, A Shot in the Dark, was based on a 1961 Broadway farce of the same name written by Harry Kurnitz (who in turn had adapted his play from L’idiote, by French author Marcel Achard). Kurnitz is sometimes given credit for inspiring the Clouseau phenomenon, though in fact it seems he had no hand in the first Pink Panther film… Jacques Clouseau is, of course, no relation to real-life oceanographer Jacques Cousteau.

C. Slaters and Lord Byrons, Alex Burriss of You Tube’s Wassabi Productions is a ladies’ man. So much so that a cursory Google search of “Alex Wassabi” yields the result “Alex Wassabi Shirtless” followed by “Alex Wassabi Birthday,” which if I understand fangirls (I don’t), tells me people want to send him a shirt on his birthday, or something like that. It’s rare that Alex, acting as one-half of the Wassabi Productions comedy team is without his best friend and You Tube partner Roi. But as the fates had it, we here at NMR caught Alex without his companion in comedy during an impromptu trip to Los Angeles. In an unprecedented solo interview, Alex was able to unwind without Roi around, and give us some dirt on his best friend’s dating life, his own love for Melanie Iglesias (join the club, pal) and why, oh why everyone wants to see him shirtless. For the interview in video format, please go to the last page. What’s it like being what’s known as “the handsome half” of Wassabi Productions? Alex Burriss: I get proposed to daily, and people send me weird stuff. But,there is some really cool stuff. Like I got some Muay Thai gear from Thailand."

"text": "The Story Behind The Song:“Delta Dawn” (written by Alex Harvey and Larry Collins)Tanya Tucker (#6 country, #72 pop, 1972) Helen Reddy (#1 pop, 1973)Tanya Tucker was just thirteen years old in 1972. A little girl blessed with a woman’s voice, she was already a show business veteran who knew Las Vegas as well as the small towns that dotted much of the New Mexico, Arizona and Nevada deserts where she grew up. Tanya loved to sing and would tell anyone who would listen that she was going to be a big singing star, although her first voyage into the professional world of entertainment found her filling a small role in the Robert Redford movie “Jeremiah Johnson. ”When her father Bo first brought Tanya to Nashville, no one knew what to do with her. In Music City a female vocalist meant someone between the ages of twenty and forty. Loretta Lynn was already a grandmother in her mid-30s but was still regarded as a “girl singer” by most industry personnel. Child stars were something that country music didn’t particularly want or need at that time. The city’s tunesmiths weren’t interested in writing songs for kids, and logic proclaimed that bible-toting women and beer-drinking men weren’t going to buy tickets to watch a teenager perform. The record executives, talent scouts and producers who met Tanya admitted to her father that his daughter was good, but there just wasn’t any place for her in country music. Tanya and her family didn’t give up."

"text": "Adolescent development Key points Adolescence is one of the most rapid phases of human development. Biological maturity precedes psychosocial maturity. This has implications for policy and programme responses to the exploration and experimentation that takes place during adolescence. The characteristics of both the individual and the environment influence the changes taking place during adolescence. Younger adolescents may be particularly vulnerable when their capacities are still developing and they are beginning to move outside the confines of their families. The changes in adolescence have health consequence not only in adolescence but also over the life-course. The unique nature and importance of adolescence mandates explicit and specific attention in health policy and programmes. Recognizing adolescence Adolescence is a period of life with specific health and developmental needs and rights. It is also a time to develop knowledge and skills, learn to manage emotions and relationships, and acquire attributes and abilities that will be important for enjoying the adolescent years and assuming adult roles. All societies recognize that there is a difference between being a child and becoming an adult."

While women technically stay in their \"\"teens\"\" until the age of 20, the term is restricted to those under the age threshold of legal adulthood, which is 18 in most of the United States, and 16 in much of the rest of the world. The youngest mother on record is Lina Medina from Peru, who, in 1939, gave birth to a boy at the age of five. [ 1] However, most girls do not become fully fertile until much later; for example, the average age of menarche (first menstrual period) in the United States is 12.5, though this figure varies by ethnicity [2] and weight, and first ovulation occurs only irregularly until after this. The average age of menarche has been declining and is continuing to do so. Whether fertility leads to early pregnancy depends on a number of factors, both societal and personal. Worldwide, rates of teenage pregnancy range from 143 per 1000 in sub-Saharan Africa to 2.9 per 1000 in South Korea. [ 3] [4]Pregnant teenagers face many of the same obstetrics issues as women in their 20s and 30s. However, there are additional medical concerns for younger mothers, particularly those under 15 and those living in developing countries. [ 5] For mothers between 15 and 19, age in itself is not a risk factor, but additional risks may be associated with socioeconomic factors. ["

Approximately 16 million girls aged 15 to 19 years and 2.5 million girls under 16 years give birth each year in developing regions (2) (3). Complications during pregnancy and childbirth are the leading cause of death for 15 to 19 year-old girls globally* (4). Every year, some 3.9 million girls aged 15 to 19 years undergo unsafe abortions (1). Adolescent mothers (ages 10 to 19 years) face higher risks of eclampsia, puerperal endometritis, and systemic infections than women aged 20 to 24 years, and babies born to adolescent mothers face higher risks of low birthweight, preterm delivery, and severe neonatal conditions than those born to women aged 20 to 24 years (5). Scope of the problem Every year, an estimated 21 million girls aged 15 to 19 years and 2 million girls aged under 15 years become pregnant in developing regions (1) , (2). Approximately 16 million girls aged 15 to 19 years and 2.5 million girls under age 16 years give birth in developing regions.2,3The global adolescent birth rate has declined from 65 births per 1000 women in 1990 to 47 births per 1000 women in 2015 (6). Despite this overall progress, because the global population of adolescents continues to grow, projections indicate the number of adolescent pregnancies will increase globally by 2030, with the greatest proportional increases in West and Central Africa and Eastern and Southern Africa (7). Additionally, regional differences reveal unequal progress: adolescent birth rates range from a high of 115 births per 1000 women in West Africa to 64 births per 1000 women in Latin America and the Caribbean to 45 births per 1000 women in South-Eastern Asia, to a low of 7 births per 1000 women in Eastern Asia (8). There are also up to three times more adolescent pregnancies in rural and indigenous populations than in urban populations (9)."

The average age of onset is 9 1/2 years for girls and 10 1/2 years for boys. Although pubertal growth spurts may occur in girls 3 years before it appears in boys on an individual basis, the average difference is 1 year. Usually girls begin their pubertal growth spurt earlier than boys. In girls, what is the initial indication of puberty? Breast development In most girls, the initial indication of puberty is the appearance of breast buds, an event known as thelarche. The usual sequence of secondary sexual characteristic development in girls is breast changes, a rapid increase in height and weight, growth of pubic hair, appearance of axillary hair, menstruation (menarche), and abrupt deceleration of linear growth."

The teenage years are also called adolescence. During this time, the teenager will see the greatest amount of growth in height and weight. Adolescence is a time for growth spurts and puberty changes. An adolescent may grow several inches in several months followed by a period of very slow growth, then have another growth spurt. Changes with puberty may occur gradually or several signs may become visible at the same time. There is a great amount of variation in the rate of changes that may occur. Some adolescents may experience these signs of maturity sooner or later than others. It is important to remember that these changes happen at different times for everyone. Being smaller or bigger than other girls or boys is normal as each child experiences puberty at his/her own time."

Physical Development Adolescents experience a growth spurt, which involves rapid growth of bones and muscles. This begins in girls around the ages of 9-12 and in boys around the ages of 11-14. Sexual maturation (puberty) also begins at this time. During puberty, most adolescents will experience:oilier skin and some acneincreased sweating especially under armsgrowth of pubic and underarm hair, and facial and chest hair in boyschanges in body proportionsmasturbation and fantasies about sexual intimacyin boys, enlargement of testicles, erections, first ejaculation, wet dreams, deepening voicein girls, breast budding, increased vaginal lubrication and the beginning of the menstrual cycle See Re CAPP's edition on Puberty for more information on changes that occur during puberty. The physical changes of early adolescence often lead to: New responses from others In response to these physical changes, young adolescents begin to be treated in a new way by those around them. They may no longer be seen as just children, but as sexual beings to be protected — or targeted (Get Organized: A Guide to Preventing Teen Pregnancy, 1999). They face society's expectations for how young men and women \"\"should\"\" behave. New concern with physical appearance and body image Both adolescent boys and girls are known to spend hours concerned with their physical appearance. They want to \"\"fit in\"\" with their peers yet achieve their own unique style as well."

Because of the similarity and the close relation of these two terms, adolescence and youth often tend to be used interchangeably and at times, it is acceptable to do so. However, by definition, adolescence and youth convey different connotation s because of which the two terms must be carefully examined prior to employing them in relation to certain contexts. What is Youth? Youth is a general term that is used to convey the early stages of an individual’s life. It is often used to refer to young persons who have not yet reached adulthood. However, the most widely accepted belief is that youth refers to the time period between childhood and adulthood while the term itself can also be used to imply the characteristics of a young person such as appearance of freshness, spirit, vigour, etc. Usually, what is referred to as youth is individuals between the ages of 16 and 24. However, age-based definitions have not been known to be consistent over the years and, as a result, youth has come to mean a general term to refer to daring, fresh and energetic mindset and an exuberant physicality.

[ 1] In humans, sexual interest may be expressed in a number of ways, such as flirting, kissing, masturbation, or having sex with a partner. Sexual interest among adolescents, as among adults, can vary greatly, and is influenced by cultural norms and mores, sex education, as well as comprehensive sexuality education provided, sexual orientation, and social controls such as age of consent laws. [ 2]Sexual activity in general is associated with various risks. The risks of sexual intercourse include unwanted pregnancy and contracting a sexually transmitted infection such as HIV / AIDS, which can be reduced with availability and use of a condom or adopting other safe sex practices. Contraceptives specifically reduce the chance of pregnancy. The risks are higher for young adolescents because their brains are not neurally mature. Several brain regions in the frontal lobe of the cerebral cortex and in the hypothalamus that are deemed important for self-control, delayed gratification, risk analysis, and appreciation are not fully mature.

Adolescents have suddenly taken the wrong path as \"\"children having children\"\" seems to be the popular lifestyle of society. If a high school was to be examined, it would be no surprise several students are pregnant. The reason as to why you do not see a lot of teenage parents in high school is because chances are they cannot handle bearing a child and successfully attend school. This is a major societal problem! About half of teenage mothers drop out of high school, and more than half end up living in poverty or even below poverty line. Children born to teenage mothers are more likely to have health issues, neglect and be a victim of abuse. Most children of adolescent parents, or siblings of adolescent parents are normalized with the idea that adolescent parenting is okay and they have an increased risk of teen parenthood."

Some of these changes are relatively predictable and, though they may be challenging, most are completely normal aspects of child development. In general, as long as children are behaving in ways that are consistent with their age range, the challenges they experience should not create cause for concern. There are many theories addressing the developmental phases that children go through, and recognizing these phases can be invaluable to parents and caregivers in understanding child behavior and developmental needs. Erik Erikson’s theory outlining the stages of psychosocial development from birth to adulthood is one of the most widely recognized stage-based theories. Erikson, an influential developmental psychologist, identified eight stages in life, five of which take place in childhood and adolescence: Infancy: Trust vs. Mistrust.

Go to: Abstract Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is recognized as the most common endocrinopathy in reproductive-aged women. The symptoms of PCOS vary with age, race, weight, and medications, adding to the challenges of accurate diagnosis. Adolescent patients pose particular diagnostic problems because characteristics of normal puberty often overlap with signs and symptoms of PCOS. This article reviews the diagnosis of PCOS in adolescents. Key words: Polycystic ovary syndrome, Endocrinopathy, Menstrual irregularity, Hyperandrogenism, Hyperinsulinemia In 1935, Stein and Leventhal published a case series of seven women with amenorrhea, hirsutism, and bilateral polycystic ovaries, a condition that later came to be known as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). 1 PCOS is now recognized as the most common endocrinopathy in reproductive-aged women (affecting 5%–7%), with key features of menstrual irregularity, elevated androgens, and polycystic-appearing ovaries. Since its original description in 1935, however, the definition of PCOS has undergone several revisions ( Table 1 )."

Participants included 220 obese youth (M age = 11.6 years, 68% female, 53% African American, M BMI = 36.7) and their primary caregivers (88% mothers). Primary caregivers completed a demographics questionnaire and two HRQOL measures: Sizing Them Up (obesity-specific) and Peds QL (generic). Youth height and weight were measured. Psychometric evaluation of Sizing Them Up was completed by conducting a factor analysis and determining internal consistency coefficients, test-retest reliability, convergent and discriminant validity, predictive validity, responsiveness to change, and minimal clinically important difference (MCID) scores. Sizing Them Up is a 22-item measure with six scales (i.e., Emotional Functioning, Physical Functioning, Teasing/Marginalization, Positive Social Attributes, Mealtime Challenges, and School Functioning) that account for 66% of the variance. The measure also includes an Adolescent Developmental Adaptation module. Sizing Them Up had internal consistency coefficients ranging from 0.59 to 0.91 and test-retest reliabilities ranging from 0.57 to 0.80. Validity was demonstrated by significant relations between a majority of Sizing Them Up scales and BMI z-scores. Sizing Them Up also demonstrated good convergent validity with other HRQOL measures and responsiveness to change related to weight loss for adolescents who had undergone bariatric surgery."

The authors searched studies published between 1990 and 2006. Adult overweight and obesity were defined by using body mass index (weight (kg)/height (m) 2 ) cutpoints of 25 and 30, respectively; childhood “at risk for overweight” and overweight were defined as the 85th and 95th percentiles of body mass index. Average annual increase in and future projections for prevalence were estimated by using linear regression models. Among adults, obesity prevalence increased from 13% to 32% between the 1960s and 2004. Currently, 66% of adults are overweight or obese; 16% of children and adolescents are overweight and 34% are at risk of overweight. Minority and low-socioeconomic-status groups are disproportionately affected at all ages. Annual increases in prevalence ranged from 0.3 to 0.9 percentage points across groups. By 2015, 75% of adults will be overweight or obese, and 41% will be obese. In conclusion, obesity has increased at an alarming rate in the United States over the past three decades."

"text": "Introduction People are most likely to begin abusing drugs*—including tobacco, alcohol, and illegal and prescription drugs—during adolescence and young adulthood. ‡ By the time they are seniors, almost 70 percent of high school students will have tried alcohol, half will have taken an illegal drug, nearly 40 percent will have smoked a cigarette, and more than 20 percent will have used a prescription drug for a nonmedical purpose. 1 There are many reasons adolescents use these substances, including the desire for new experiences, an attempt to deal with problems or perform better in school, and simple peer pressure. Adolescents are “biologically wired” to seek new experiences and take risks, as well as to carve out their own identity. Trying drugs may fulfill all of these normal developmental drives, but in an unhealthy way that can have very serious long-term consequences. Many factors influence whether an adolescent tries drugs, including the availability of drugs within the neighborhood, community, and school and whether the adolescent’s friends are using them. The family environment is also important: Violence, physical or emotional abuse, mental illness, or drug use in the household increase the likelihood an adolescent will use drugs. Finally, an adolescent’s inherited genetic vulnerability; personality traits like poor impulse control or a high need for excitement; mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, or ADHD; and beliefs such as that drugs are “cool” or harmless make it more likely that an adolescent will use drugs. 2The adolescent brain is often likened to a car with a fully functioning gas pedal (the reward system) but weak brakes (the prefrontal cortex). Images of Brain Development in Healthy Children and Teens (Ages 5-20) The brain continues to develop through early adulthood."

They soon became popular attractions at public aquariums and aquatic theme parks due to their intelligence, trainability, striking appearance, playfulness in captivity and sheer size.

"text": "\"First Tank Guide Home Setting your Aquarium Heater How do I Adjust the Setting of the Heater in My Fish Tank? ( The First Tank Guide)Support and Share the First Tank Guide: Tweet Though aquarium heaters are very common, there are often questions about setting them. You should be able to use the same technique for setting a chiller if you are using one, as the adjustment being made is to the thermostat, not the heater element. Preset Aquarium Heaters There are many models of aquarium heaters on the market today that come 'preset' or with a temperature gauge on the side of the heater or on the control knob to help you set the temperature. Though these can be very helpful in getting the thermostat in the right range, they should be viewed with some skepticism when you are adjusting your thermostat. Though some manufacturers make claims otherwise, these gauges are at best accurate within two or three degrees Fahrenheit (one to one and a half degrees Celsius), and will get less accurate over the life of the heater. With this in mind, it is still important to monitor and adjust the thermostat setting on the heater as necessary, rather than just assuming the markings on the heater are correct. Some other preset aquarium heaters claim that are set to the correct temperature t the factory and need no adjustment. These should be viewed with even greater scepticism, and probably should be avoided. Since these heaters have no way to adjust the temperature, you cannot set the temperature correctly for your fish that prefer warmer or cooler water, and you have no option to elevate the temperature in the tank in case of disease."

Both beautiful and relaxing, more and more aquariums are found in offices, in restaurants, and proudly showcased as part of home décor. But did you know aquariums are also an excellent hands-on teaching tool in the classroom or at home? Establishing an aquarium offers students of all ages the opportunity to learn directly through experience. Caring for the aquarium kindles a sense of responsibility, achievement, and a genuine desire to learn. Teachers and parents are given a unique opportunity to teach a receptive audience in a fun and interactive manner. Consider setting up a special \"\"teaching aquarium\"\" in a classroom or home to help encourage and develop an interest in reading, writing, critical thinking, and science. Educational Benefits of Aquariums Reading Reading is an essential part of our everyday lives. Students will enjoy researching topics such as fish species, plants, or reefs to learn more about aquarium keeping. Who has not heard of the \"\"selective\"\" reading habits of children who only read books on topics of interest to them?"

"text": "There are a variety of fish food options available to your fish. These plates are eating a pelleted fish food. by Tony Terceira Fish Food Options The food provided to your fish must be safe, nutritionally balanced and appropriate to the livestock. Flake and Pellet Foods Flake and pellet foods are available in a range of formulations designed for specific types of fish: community fish, saltwater fish, herbivores, carnivores and so on. These can form an excellent staple diet for most fish. However, once exposed to air, the nutritional value of flake and pellets quickly declines; what was once appetizing and nutritious becomes stale and functionally worthless. Flake and pellet foods should be discarded within three months of opening. Flake and pellets are often low in fiber, leading to constipation, and this in turn can cause swim bladder disorders and bloating in your fish. High-fiber foods such as Daphnia and vegetable foods will help to prevent this. Freeze-Dried Foods Freeze-dried fish food contains valuable fiber, as well as an excellent balance of nutrients."

Any adjustments needed can cause significant stress and in some cases require taking apart the aquarium and starting all over. Do it right the first time. With a bit of planning, you can have a beautifully aquascaped aquarium with minimal effort and disturbance. Preparation Before placing the driftwood in your aquarium, draw a rough sketch of your aquarium and where you want to locate the driftwood. Consider how your aquarium will look with the driftwood positioned vertically as opposed to the conventional horizontal position. Explore different designs on paper to create a unique aquatic landscape. Drawing a rough sketch allows you to experiment and visualize your aquascape without disturbing your aquarium inhabitants in the process."

"text": "Selecting and keeping Discus Discus colors and varieties There are many different colors and varieties of Discus to choose among, and to add to the confusion, the same fish can be referred to by many different names by different sellers. Sometimes a commonly occurring variant will even be given a more “interesting” name to become more appealing to potential customers. It is also important to keep in mind that how we perceive colors are affected by lighting and surroundings. A fish that look greenish turquoise in the shop may look more bluish turquoise in your aquarium and so on. Selecting Discus Size Buying really young Discus is the most inexpensive alternative, but it will on the other hand take a long time before they become old enough to breed. It can also be hard to determine color and quality at this stage. Young Discus fish are normally sold when they are roughly the size of a 50 cent coin, and at this size they all look like Brown Discus since they have not developed their adult coloration yet. For some variants, the adult coloration will not begin to show until the fish is at least a year old. When buying really young Discus, keep in mind that some of them may die before they reach adulthood and some may not grow to full Discus size. If you are planning to set up a show aquarium with close to perfect specimens you should therefore buy more Discus than what you plan to house in your future show aquarium."

The author debunks many and varied myths revolving around the hobby’s original fish, including the complete unsuitability of that ubiquitous bowl. Who hasn’t kept goldfish at some point? Perhaps we won one at the county fair, or bought one at a local fish shop—complete with bowl—using change from our piggy banks. For many of us, goldfish Carassius auratus were our introduction to the aquarium hobby, and for others, they served as a gateway into more exotic species. Many of us even stayed true to the goldfish and dedicated our entire hobby to them. Since the pioneering days of fishkeeping, goldfish have been among the most popular fishes kept. Their captive breeding has occurred in their native China since roughly 800 ad, making the goldfish one of the earliest fish to be domesticated. This long history of captive breeding is responsible for not only giving rise to so many different breeds within the species, but also for the many myths surrounding their care, history, and biology, which outnumber those of any other species of aquarium fish. This article’s purpose is to debunk some of those myths that have helped make the goldfish one of the most popular fishes, but remain abused, misunderstood, and neglected."

"text": "Axolotl Care Sheet Common name: Axolotl or Mexican Walking Fish. Scientific name: Ambystoma mexicanum The name Axolotl is derived from the Aztec Language of Nahuatl. There are a few different translations of the name Axolotl, but some of the most popular translations are ‘Water Dog’, 'Water Doll', 'Water Slave' and ‘Servant of the water’. The name also has connections with the Aztec God Xolotl, who is believed to have turned into an Axolotl in Aztec mythology. Axolotls are part of the Ambystoma family, which means they are closely related to Tiger Salamanders and in the Caudata classification of amphibians. Description Description: There are 5 different colour variations in Axolotls. The wild types are either olive green to dark grey or brown, whilst the black, albino and leucistic (golden coloured) Axolotls are more typically found in the pet trade. All Axolotls keep their larval appearance throughout their lives and have 3 noticeable gills branching out from either side of their neck area. These gills have a feathery appearance. Axolotls also have four lizard like legs and a long, flat tail."

While children may be legally incapable of giving informed consent, they nevertheless may possess the ability to assent to or dissent from participation. Out of respect for children as developing persons, children should be asked whether or not they wish to participate in the research, particularly if the research: (1) does not involve interventions likely to be of benefit to the subjects; and (2) the children can comprehend and appreciate what it means to be a volunteer for the benefit of others. The IRB must determine for each protocol - depending on such factors as the nature of the research and the age, status, and condition of the proposed subjects - whether all or some of the children are capable of assenting to participation.

While this resolution was being discussed,on June 11 a committee, consisting of John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, Robert R.

In his Autobiography written in 1805, Adams states that the committee of five decided upon \"\"which the declaration was to consist\"\", and it then appointed Jefferson and himself to form a subcommittee to really write them down. Now Jefferson and Adams have two completely different versions of what happened then. Adams says: Jefferson proposed to me to make the draught, I said I will not; You shall do it. Oh no!

The law requires the parties to a contract to demonstrate mutual assent to the contracts' terms. The Offer The Offer is the key element that defines the relevant issues in the contract. To be a legally valid offer, the offer must be effectively communicated so that the receiving party has the ability to accept or reject the offer. Whether or not the receiving party reads the contract has no bearing in determining the clarity of the offer. The offer must only provide the recipient with a clear opportunity to accept or reject the contract. Someone who signs a contract without reading it does so at his/her own risk. In addition, a valid offer must contain certain and definite terms."

"text": "Should children be involved in clinical research? Press release Back Would you let your child take part in clinical research? How much say should children have in these decisions? Should they be encouraged? These and other such questions are at the heart of a new inquiry from the Nuffield Council on Bioethics, which has today opened a consultation on the ethical issues arising from children taking part in clinical research. The consultation seeks the views of young people, parents, professionals involved in clinical research with children and young people and anyone else with an interest in these issues. Some people might have significant concerns about their child taking part in clinical research, particularly if it involves procedures which are likely to cause pain or distress, such as blood tests. Worries about putting children or young people at risk unnecessarily, and practical concerns about them spending extra time away from school or from home life are likely to be factors too. However, research involving children themselves is essential if doctors and scientists are to continue to develop new and effective treatments for childhood diseases, based on the best possible evidence. As it stands, many medicines given to children have not been tested in children, and hence the evidence about how they may react to them is limited."

This statute provided for the government of the Northwest Territory, an area bounded by the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers and the Great Lakes, and created a procedure by which states could be established within this territory and admitted to the Union. Congress was spurred to enact the ordinance when the Ohio Company of Associates, a group of land speculators, made plans to purchase more than one million acres in the territory. The Northwest Ordinance set several important precedents. It established that unlike many nations, which left their new territories in a position inferior to the old, the United States would admit new states to the Union on an equal basis with the original states. The ordinance also set aside land in each township for schools, thus setting a precedent for federal support to education. In addition, the ordinance prohibited slavery in the territory and included the first full statement of U. S. Indian policy, which stressed that \"\"utmost good faith shall always be observed toward the Indians. \"\" Northwest Ordinance Be it ordained by the United States in Congress assembled that the said territory, for the purposes of temporary government, be one district, subject, however, to be divided into two districts, as future circumstances may, in the opinion of Congress, make it expedient.

This is achieved by safeguarding and advocating for the participant's right to deliberate and make a knowing decision whether to cooperate with the investigator's research interest. Smith College requires that every researcher (whether student, faculty or staff) secure the informed consent of any human participant before involving that participant in the research project. Every potential participant who is a physically and mentally able adult (at least 18 years old) must provide consent to participate in the research prior to the initiation of the actual research. The ideas of mental and physical normalcy revolve around the ability of the participant to provide truly informed and voluntary consent. Populations who do not meet this description, whether due to age or disability or other protected status, are afforded additional safeguards. Researchers must ensure that the circumstances under which consent is sought will provide the participants (or their representatives) with sufficient opportunity to consider whether or not to participate in the proposed research. The circumstances must minimize the possibility that the participants will experience coercion or undue influence. Function of the Consent Document The informed consent document communicates to the prospective research participant the purpose, procedures, risks and benefits of the study; the participant's rights in participating in the research; and the freedom to decline to participate without penalty. The consent document also allows the participant to obtain further information and answers to questions related to the study."

He was the second monarch of the Tudor dynasty, succeeding his father, Henry VII of England. He is famous for having been married six times and for wielding the most untrammeled power of any British monarch. Notable events during his reign included the break with Rome and the subsequent establishment of the independent Church of England, the Dissolution of the Monasteries, and the union of England and Wales. Several significant pieces of legislation were enacted during Henry VIII's reign. They included the several Acts which severed the English Church from the Roman Catholic Church and established Henry as the supreme head of the Church in England. Henry was an avid gambler and dice player, and as well, an accomplished musician, author, poet, and sportsman. He was also involved in the construction and improvement of several buildings, including King's College, Cambridge; Christ Church, Oxford; Hampton Court Palace, Nonsuch Palace, and Westminster Abbey. His sponsorship of education and of the arts contributed to the English Renaissance which continued under the reign of his daughter, Elizabeth I. His enduring legacy is the start of the English Reformation, initially triggered not by theological but political reasons. As a result of the church-state relationship that emerged under Henry VIII (with the king as head of the church, following Martin Luther 's model) and of efforts to impose membership of the Church of England on the whole population, other denominations evolved during the years that followed Henry's reign."

That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.2.3 Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.2.4 But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security.2.5 Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former systems of government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these States. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world. Charges 3.1 He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good. He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them. He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only. He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures. He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people. He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the Legislative powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within."

In California, 18 is the usual age when people can consent to treatments or procedures, but there are important exceptions, such as when seeking medical care related to the prevention or treatment of pregnancy (see below for further clarifications).

"text": "Journal of Experimental Child Psychology Volume 93, Issue 2, February 2006, Pages 120-138Theory of mind, inhibitory control, and preschool-age children’s suggestibility in different interviewing contexts Matthew H. Scullin Karri Bonner Show morehttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.jecp.2005.09.005 Get rights and content Abstract The current study examined the relations among 3- to 5-year-olds’ theory of mind, inhibitory control, and three measures of suggestibility: yielding to suggestive questions (yield), shifting answers in response to negative feedback (shift), and accuracy in response to misleading questions during a pressured interview about a live event. Theory of mind aided in the prediction of suggestibility about the live event, and inhibitory control was a moderator variable affecting the consistency of children’s sensitivity to social pressure across situations. The findings indicate that theory of mind and inhibitory control predict children’s suggestibility about a live event above and beyond yield, shift, and age and that the construct validity of shift may improve as children’s inhibitory control develops. Previous article Next article Keywords Suggestibility Individual differences Preschool children Video Suggestibility Scale for Children Scale generalizability Theory of mind Executive functioning Introduction Research has consistently shown that young children can be suggestible ( Bruck, Ceci, & Melnyk, 1997; Ceci & Bruck, 1993, 1995 ). Whereas numerous past studies have helped to explicate the circumstances in which suggestibility occurs, research is now becoming increasingly focused on the components of suggestibility and individual difference characteristics that are related to why some children are more suggestible than others (for a review, see Bruck & Melnyk, 2004; Quas, Qin, Schaaf, & Goodman, 1997 ). In this article, we focus on individual differences in children’s interrogative suggestibility, which involves assenting to misleading questions about a real or imagined event. According to Gudjonsson and Clark’s (1986) two-factor model, there are two components that comprise interrogative suggestibility in adults. One component, referred to as yield, involves assenting to misleading questions. The other component, termed shift, involves changing one’s response following ambiguous mild negative feedback from the interviewer. Using a measure called the Video Suggestibility Scale for Children (VSSC), in which children are shown a short video and then asked misleading questions and given negative feedback for some of their answers, Scullin, Kanaya, and Ceci (2002) found that yield and shift were often correlated with suggestibility measures in another paradigm in children older than 54 months; however, the occurrence of correlations was quite low in children younger than this age."

If your research will be published (even as a thesis or dissertation) or given as a presentation outside of a UT Knoxville classroom, you will need IRB approval for your research. Research done for a class presentation, unless it is to be published or presented elsewhere, does not require an IRB approval. If I need to complete an IRB protocol for my research where do I begin? Begin with your advisor. They can help you get started. Your department also has someone who approves IRB protocols at that level. At any time you can contact the IRB office at (865) 974-7697.

Along with the aging of this iconic cohort come lots of data about their poor preparation for their later years. Insufficient preparedness and lack of financial resources for decades without steady employment paint a gloomy picture for many retirees. Are we facing a Baby Boomer retirement crisis? There may not be an easy answer, but read on for data that help shed some light into this large generation's economic situation. ( For related reading, see: How Baby Boomers Will Change the Way Others Retire. ) Baby Boomer Retirement Research Last year, Go Banking Rates published research conducted with 1,504 adults over the age of 55 (4.3% margin of error). About 30% of the respondents age 55 and over claimed to have no retirement savings. An additional 26% reported less than $50,000 saved for retirement. When considering typical benchmarks needed for a successful retirement, 54% of the older Americans in this survey lacked sufficient retirement funds."

"text": "\"Economy January 20, 2014Print Many Baby Boomers Reluctant to Retireby Jim Harter and Sangeeta Agrawal Engaged, financially struggling boomers more likely to work longer This article is part of an ongoing series analyzing how baby boomers -- those born from 1946-1964 in the U. S. -- behave differently from other generations as consumers and in the workplace. The series also explores how the aging of the baby boomer generation will affect politics and well-being. WASHINGTON, D. C. -- True to their \"\"live to work\"\" reputation, some baby boomers are digging in their heels at the workplace as they approach the traditional retirement age of 65. While the average age at which U. S. retirees say they retired has risen steadily from 57 to 61 in the past two decades, boomers -- the youngest of whom will turn 50 this year -- will likely extend it even further. Nearly half (49%) of boomers still working say they don't expect to retire until they are 66 or older, including one in 10 who predict they will never retire. Concerns about money likely play a significant role in explaining why so many baby boomers see themselves working longer. Even before the 2008-2009 recession, financial advisers were warning that some baby boomers were carrying too much debt, saving too little, and relying too heavily on Social Security to retire comfortably. And then came the economic collapse -- a perfect storm of layoffs, pension and stock losses, and plummeting home values -- which was particularly ill-timed for boomers who might otherwise have been in financial shape to retire on schedule with the start of their Social Security benefits. Gallup finds that baby boomers who strongly agree that they currently \"\"have enough money to do everything [they] want to do\"\" expect to retire at age 66. Boomers who strongly disagree with this statement predict they will retire significantly later, at age 73."

"text": "Ideas | Bruce Cannon Gibney How the baby boomers destroyed everything Gary Clement for The Boston Globe By Bruce Cannon Gibney February 26, 2017Even before the election, Americans were asking just how we got here — to this sullen moment of national reckoning. Since November, the autopsy has dragged on so long it seems there could be nothing left to dissect. But the search continues, because no truly satisfying answer has yet been offered. Deplorables, deportables, economic malaise, rural resentment, coastal hauteur whatever — these are just symptoms. The root illness remains undiagnosed, but here it is: the baby boomers, that vast generation of Americans born in the first two decades after World War II. The body politic rests on the slab because boomers put it there, because decades of boomerism produced the problems and disaffection of which 2016 was merely the latest expression. It’s a shocking hypothesis, but then again, America has suffered a shocking decline. In 1971, Alan Shepard was playing golf on the moon. Today, America can’t put a man into orbit (or, allegedly, the Oval Office) without Russian assistance. Something changed, and that something was the boomers and the sociopathic agenda they emplaced."

Different people, organizations, and scholars have varying opinions on who is a baby boomer, both chronologically and culturally.

But what we don’t hear a lot about is how to market to their parents: Americans older than 50. Baby Boomers, born between 1946 and 1964, make up about 44 percent of the U. S. adult population and control about 70 percent of the country’s disposable income. They’re a real force and a critical component in the U. S. economy – and they shouldn’t be ignored in your business’s marketing strategy for these ten reasons:1. They’re spending money. When Boomers enter their retirement years, they go through a unique life transition from making money to spending money. No longer bound by a strict family budget and a 9 to 5 job, they have more money and time to invest in their hobbies and interests, such as shopping, traveling, entertaining, and socializing.2. They’re driving technology growth. Yes, younger generations are typically the first to embrace new technologies but once these technologies go mainstream, Boomers are the ones who drive the growth. They’re using technology in a different way than their counterparts, too."

These children acquired more education than any previous generation; many grew up projecting a rebellious, idealistic attitude that promised to reshape society. Now, with the first of them turning 60, the baby boomers are about to do something utterly conventional and predictable. They're going to start getting old and begin developing health problems. They're also going to retire from the workforce. In true baby boomer style, however, they will probably do these things in a new way. Boomers are expected to live longer than any previous generation of Americans.

For the next twenty years, an average of 10,000 people each day will reach age 65, which has historically been the retirement phase of life. Between 2000 and 2010, the number of people age 65 to 84 in the U. S. grew by 3.3 million. While 13 percent of Americans are currently age 65 or older, that proportion will jump to 18 percent by 2030. The current 40 million senior citizens will balloon to 89 million by 2050. These numbers and their impact are awe-inspiring and a bit frightening. Baby boomers entering retirement age will dramatically change today’s business and lifestyle landscape. Baby boomers may stay in the workforce longer than their parents did, both because they need the money and they’re not ready to leave behind fulfilling careers.

"text": "March 1, 2018Millennials projected to overtake Baby Boomers as America’s largest generation By Richard Fry Millennials are on the cusp of surpassing Baby Boomers as the nation’s largest living adult generation, according to population projections from the U. S. Census Bureau. As of July 1, 2016 (the latest date for which population estimates are available), Millennials, whom we define as ages 20 to 35 in 2016, numbered 71 million, and Boomers (ages 52 to 70) numbered 74 million. Millennials are expected to overtake Boomers in population in 2019 as their numbers swell to 73 million and Boomers decline to 72 million. Generation X (ages 36 to 51 in 2016) is projected to pass the Boomers in population by 2028. The Millennial generation continues to grow as young immigrants expand its ranks. Boomers – whose generation was defined by the boom in U. S. births following World War II – are aging and their numbers shrinking in size as the number of deaths among them exceeds the number of older immigrants arriving in the country. Because generations are analytical constructs, it takes time for popular and expert consensus to develop as to the precise boundaries that demarcate one generation from another. Pew Research Center has assessed demographic, labor market, attitudinal and behavioral measures and has now established an endpoint – albeit inexact – for the Millennial generation. According to our revised definition, the youngest “Millennial” was born in 1996 . This post has been updated accordingly (see note below)."

"text": "\"Sean Williams ( TMFUltra Long)May 15, 2016 at 6:18AMNo one ever said the road to retirement is an easy path traveled, but it's looking to be a particularly bumpy and pothole-filled road for baby boomers. The baby boomer generation began retiring earlier this decade, and the expectation is that roughly 10,000 boomers will exit the workforce each day between now and the end of next decade. But for many baby boomers the reality of being able to retire comfortably, and on their own terms, may not be possible. The following five statistics perfectly sum up the woes that many boomers are facing as they approach or enter retirement.1. 59% relying heavily on Social Security Arguably one of the biggest challenges baby boomers face is their heavy reliance on Social Security. Based on statistics from the Insured Retirement Institute's latest report on baby boomers, some 59% of boomers expect Social Security to be a major source of their income during retirement. That's up from just 43% when surveyed in 2014. This is particularly worrisome because the Social Security's Old-Age, Survivors and Disability Insurance Trust isn't on solid long-term footing. The Board of Trustees is predicting that the OASDI will burn through its remaining cash reserves by 2034 -- namely on account of so many boomers retiring and shifting the worker-to-beneficiary ratio from 2.8-to-1 in 2015 to 2.1-to-1 by 2035. While any number of tax increases or benefit cuts could extend benefit payments to eligible seniors via Social Security, a cut of up to 21% could be necessary to sustain the program for generations to come."

"text": "Generations in Canada PDF version In 2011, the Canadian population was composed of many different generations, with the baby boom generation probably the most well-known. Defining a generation can be challenging, as the term can have several different meanings. In general, a generation is a group of individuals who are about the same age and have experienced, most often as children or young adults, specific historical events, such as an economic crisis, an economic boom, a war, or significant political changes. These events may influence their views of the world. In the field of demography, however, the definition of a generation does not depend on social, economic or political factors; instead, it is based exclusively on the year (s) in which a group of individuals is born. Generations can vary greatly in size depending on the number of births that occurred during a given period. The size of a generation can have a significant impact on the life course of individuals who belong to it, as well as on those who belong to other generations. Moreover, the size of a generation can affect a country's economy and society as a whole. Among the Canadian population in 2011, three large generations can be identified using demographic criteria:the baby boom generationparents of the baby boomerschildren of baby boomers, sometimes referred to as Generation Y or 'echo of the baby boom' generation. Other generations in Canada can be further identified, such as 'World War II' and Generation X. The baby boomers (1946 to 1965)A baby boom, by definition, is a sudden rise in the number of births observed from year to year."

"text": "BOOMER OR BUSTAt this rate, Gen X might never get to be president of the United States of America David Dunning November 17, 2016Generations over political persuasions. ( Reuters/Brendan Mc Dermid)Donald Trump’s election marks the fourth Baby Boomer in a row to inhabit the Oval Office. At the end of his four years in office, Trump’s election will mean 28 straight years of control for his generation—32 if re-elected. Thirty-two years seems like a long time for a single generation to dominate the White House. As such, it seems inevitable that at the end of Trump’s run, the presidency will undergo generational change, and the final Baby Boomer will hand over the keys to a member of Generation X. But we should not be so sure. If history is any guide, the next several elections won’t simply feature two parties with contesting visions fighting over the White House, but three vastly different generations with their own ideas about America: the Baby Boomers (b. 1946-1964), Gen X (b. 1965-1982), and the Millennials (b. 1983-2000). ( There is a lot of talk about the blurry boundaries of each of these generations, but let’s stick to these rough years for the sake of clarity. ) A quick examination of presidential birthdays shows just how much they tend to bunch up not just in generations, but it actual birth years. Trump will be the third president born in 1946: Bill Clinton and George W. Bush also share his birth year. The next oldest are a sizeable 22 years their senior: Jimmy Carter and H. W. Bush, who were both born in 1924."

There are no precise dates for when this cohort starts or ends; demographers and researchers typically use the early 1980s as starting birth years and the mid-1990s to early 2000s as ending birth years. Millennials are sometimes referred to as \"\"echo boomers\"\" due to a major surge in birth rates in the 1980s and 1990s, and because millennials are often the children of the baby boomers. The 20th-century trend toward smaller families in developed countries continued, however, so the relative impact of the \"\"baby boom echo\"\" was generally less pronounced than the post–World War II baby boom. Although Millennial characteristics vary by region, depending on social and economic conditions, the generation is generally marked by an increased use and familiarity with communications, media, and digital technologies. [ 1] In most parts of the world, their upbringing was marked by an increase in a liberal approach to politics and economics; the effects of this environment are disputed. The Great Recession has had a major impact on this generation because it has caused historically high levels of unemployment among young people, and has led to speculation about possible long-term economic and social damage to this generation.

"text": "Date/Age Range of Baby Boomers, Generation X, and Generation YHere is the date range comparison between these 3 generations. Note that the start and end date are debatable. As I said in a previous post, generations don’t end with black and white borders. They fade into one another, so you will see an overlap of age. Without further adieu, here are the ranges: Baby Boomers: 1946~1953 to 1964This would make baby boomers, in the year 2010, somewhere in the ballpark of 46-64 years old. Gen X: 1965 to 1976~1982This would make generation X, in the year 2010, somewhere in the ballpark of 28-45 years old. Gen Y: 1977~1982 to 1995~2001This would make generation Y, in the year 2010, somewhere in the ballpark of 9-33 years old. For the most part, Generation Y are the children of the Baby Boomers, and in some cases, grandchildren. This is due to them being around their prime reproductive years during the 1980s (the last baby boomers turned 18 in 1982). Thus, the echo boomers being a surge in population as an echo of the baby boomer post-war boom."

[ 2] and studied the ways in which generations separate themselves from one another, in the home and in social situations and areas (such as churches, clubs, senior centers, and youth centers). The sociological theory of a generation gap first came to light in the 1960s, when the younger generation (later known as Baby Boomers) seemed to go against everything their parents had previously believed in terms of music, values, governmental and political views. Sociologists now refer to \"\"generation gap\"\" as \"\"institutional age segregation\"\". Usually, when any of these age groups is engaged in its primary activity, the individual members are physically isolated from people of other generations, with little interaction across age barriers except at the nuclear family level. Distinguishing generation gaps [ edit]There are several ways to make distinctions between generations.

In the early phases of gingivitis, some plaque is present and there is a mild redness of the gums, but the gingival surfaces are smooth. Dental calculus is calcium phosphate and carbonate mixed with organic matter. In advanced gingivitis there are plaque and calculus under the gums, moderate-to-severe redness of the gums and the gum surfaces are irregular. Plaque is the result of a collection of food, debris, bacteria, dead skin cells and mucous. It forms within 24 hours on clean tooth surfaces. The gum responds to plaque with inflammation of the gingival blood vessels, swelling of the gums, and collagen loss from the gums. The gingival sulcus, or gum pocket, is the narrow space between the inner wall of the gum and the tooth."

His discoveries and theories laid the foundation for much of the progress in science since his time. Newton was one of the inventors of the branch of mathematics called calculus (another was the German mathematician Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz ). He also solved mysteries of light and optics, formulated the three laws of motion, and derived from them the law of universal gravitation. Newton was born on January 4, 1643, at Woolsthorpe, near Grantham in Lincolnshire. When he was three years old, his widowed mother remarried, leaving him in the care of his grandmother. Eventually his mother, by then widowed a second time, was persuaded to send him to grammar school in Grantham. Later, in the summer of 1661, he was sent to Trinity College, at the University of Cambridge. Soon after Newton had taken his BA degree in May 1665, the Cambridge colleges were shut down because of an outbreak of plague."

He enjoyed spending much of his time making contraptions such as a windmill used to grind grain, a clock which was powered by water and other various inventions. Unfortunately because of the time he spent on his projects he did very poorly in school. His teachers described him as \"\"idle\"\" and \"\"inattentive\"\".

CONSUMERS: Click here for the Consumer Version Urinary calculi are solid particles in the urinary system. They may cause pain, nausea, vomiting, hematuria, and, possibly, chills and fever due to secondary infection. Diagnosis is based on urinalysis and radiologic imaging, usually noncontrast helical CT. Treatment is with analgesics, antibiotics for infection, medical expulsive therapy, and, sometimes, shock wave lithotripsy or endoscopic procedures. About 1/1000 adults in the US is hospitalized annually because of urinary calculi, which are also found in about 1% of all autopsies. Up to 12% of men and 5% of women will develop a urinary calculus by age 70. Calculi vary from microscopic crystalline foci to calculi several centimeters in diameter. A large calculus, called a staghorn calculus, can fill an entire renal calyceal system. Etiology Pathophysiology Symptoms and Signs Diagnosis Treatment Prevention Key Points85% of urinary calculi are calcium, mainly calcium oxalate (see Table: Composition of Urinary Calculi ); 10% are uric acid; 2% are cystine; and most of the remainder are magnesium ammonium phosphate (struvite)."

"text": "Dental calculus, both supra- and subgingival occurs in the majority of adults worldwide. Dental calculus is calcified dental plaque, composed primarily of calcium phosphate mineral salts deposited between and within remnants of formerly viable microorganisms. A viable dental plaque covers mineralized calculus deposits. Levels of calculus and location of formation are population specific and are affected by oral hygiene habits, access to professional care, diet, age, ethnic origin, time since last dental cleaning, systemic disease and the use of prescription medications. In populations that practice regular oral hygiene and with access to regular professional care, supragingival dental calculus formation is restricted to tooth surfaces adjacent to the salivary ducts. Levels of supragingival calculus in these populations is minor and the calculus has little if any impact on oral-health. Dental calculus is a calcified dental plaque, primarily composed of calcium phosphate mineral salts that can form both supra- and subgingival deposits on teeth. For most people, dental calculus is not something we look forward to. But in this case we’re not talking about the subject of math. Dental calculus is actually another name for dental tartar, a hardened deposit of dental plaque found on your teeth and under your gums!What’s the Equation?"

This is most commonly caused by ureteric obstruction by a calculus but the same symptom can occur in association with sloughed renal papilla, tumor or blood clot. The patient is suddenly aware of pain in the loin which radiates round the flank to the groin and often into the testes or labium in the sensory distribution of the first lumbar nerve. The pain steadily increases in intensity to reach the peak in a few minutes. The patient is restless and tries unsuccessfully to obtain relief by changing position or pacing the room.

Epidemiology The lifetime prevalence of ureteric calculi is relatively high, occurring in approximately 12% of men and 7% of women 1. The risk is increased with a past history of ureteric calculi and with positive family history. Most patients present between ages 30 and 60 2, with peak incidence between ages 35-45. Initial calculus presentation occurring past age 50 is uncommon. Clinical presentation Patients with ureteric calculi may present with peristaltic pain ( renal colic ), haematuria, nausea and vomiting. The quality and location of pain are dependent on the location of the calculi within the ureter. Calculi within the ureteropelvic junction may cause deep flank pain due to distension of the renal capsule, without radiation to the groin, whereas pain from upper ureteral calculi radiates to the flank and lumbar areas."

In the early stages, only the gums are infected (gingivitis). Later, it spreads to the bone surrounding the tooth and other supporting tissues. Finally the tooth becomes loose and may fall out. Periodontal disease can affect persons of any age. What Are The Common Signs and Symptoms of Periodontal Disease? You may have periodontal disease if you have: Bleeding gums when brushing Red, swollen,puffy-looking or tender gums Abscesses on the gum Pus secreting from between the teeth and gums Shaky teeth Teeth appearing to drift apart from its original position Receeding gumline (gum recession)Persistent bad breath Vague discomfort or dull-ache of gums and teeth You may still have gum disease and not have any of the above signs and symptoms as most people do not experience any pain with the gum infection."

Calculus based physics uses calculus. So basically your class is an intro to calc based physics. You learn all the concepts of physics without messing around with all the math. If you don't know any calculus, then it will be hard to explain the benefits of it. But if you've taken calculus, then it should be pretty obvious what it can be used for. Let me try to explain anyway, because that didn't really answer your question. Calculus lets you \"\"add up\"\" small contributions to get a total. For example, you have your equation for how long an object stays in the air when you throw it, right?"

"text": "Related Articles1Architectural Engineer Vs. Architect2What Education Do You Need in Order to Become an Architectural Engineer?3The Differences Between a Structural Engineer and an Architectural Engineer4Different Types of Jobs for Architects The age-long complaint of bored math students is, of course, that what they are learning won't have any real-world value. If such a student wants to become an architect, he should sit up and pay attention in calculus class. Architecture blends several subjects together, including art, physics, geometry and calculus. Since calculus is used for examining forces over time, it is the main reason buildings don't topple over in hurricanes and heating systems don't overload in the winter. What Calculus Is Used For Calculus was developed in the 17th century by scientists, including Isaac Newton, as a means of describing the physical universe. In a nutshell, you could say calculus is the mathematical study of how things change in the physical universe. It provides a means of modeling any system that is subject to change and for predicting the effects of change on that system. Taking a class in calculus itself doesn't teach you how to design buildings, but it does give architects a language to use when designing structures and for understanding how forces like gravity and wind will affect them. The Math Behind Architecture In designing structures, an architect must visualize the solutions to both functional and aesthetic problems -- balancing art with science and math."

"text": "Calculus or Tooth Tartar Removal Procedure Calculus or tartar is a hard, yellowish deposit on teeth. It is composed of mineral salts, food, and other debris that has hardened over time. Tartar cannot be brushed off. It has a rough surface, attracting more debris and food particles, causing a repeating cycle of tartar formation and buildup. Periodontal disease is a disease of the tissues that support the teeth in the mouth. It occurs when the body’s immune system cannot clear the mouth of the bacteria and toxins. If plaque is not removed, it will eventually accumulate and harden into dental calculus (or tartar). Calculus can become hard and yellow brownish covering over the crown of the tooth. Calculus can also cover the gum so that the plaque beneath the gum-line cannot be cleaned. The plaque beneath the gum-line is the real cause of periodontal disease."
