Out of sixty students, there are 14 who are taking Economics and 29 who are taking Calculus. What is the probability that a randomly chosen student from this group is taking only the Calculus class ?
Out of sixty students, there are 14 who are taking Economics and 29 who are taking Calculus. What is the probability that a randomly chosen student from this group is taking only the Calculus class ?
Answer : 2 7/15 Explanation : Answer: B) 7/15 Explanation: Given total students in the class = 60Students who are taking Economics = 24 andStudents who are taking Calculus = 32Students who are taking both subjects = 60-(24 32) = 60 - 56 = 4Students who are taking calculus only = 32 - 4 = 28probability that a randomly chosen student from this group is taking only the Calculus class = 28/60 = 7/15.

If 6 engines consume 24 metric tonnes of coal, when each is working 8 hours day, how much coal will be required for 9 engines, each running 13hours a day, it being given that 2 engines of former type consume as much as 3 engines of latter type ?
If 6 engines consume 24 metric tonnes of coal, when each is working 8 hours day, how much coal will be required for 9 engines, each running 13hours a day, it being given that 2 engines of former type consume as much as 3 engines of latter type ?
Answer : 1 45 metric tonnes Explanation : Answer: A) 45 metric tonnes Explanation: 2 engines of former type for one hour consumes (2 x 24)/(6 x8) = 1 metric ton i.e. 3 engines of latter type consumes 1 ton for one hourHence 9 engines consumes 3 tons for one hourFor 15 hours it is 15 x 3 = 45 metric tonnes.

Conducting surveys with your own customers is surprisingly difficult anymore. Phone options are dead, and online surveys are tough, because nobody answers or responds anymore. So what’s a researcher, strategist, or marketing professional to do? How about conducting a paper-based mail survey.
It sounds crazy, but we just did it, and it succeeded beyond what we had hoped. We got a 25% response rate.
In this newsletter, our feature article, How to Beat Online Surveys with Old-Fashioned Paper, describes the conundrum we faced in trying to conduct a customer survey for a bank here in Chicago. We designed a unique and brand new (old-fashioned) approach. This article shares all the details of what went into it and why it succeeded.
… which showcases some of our recent work on a new Absence and Disability Readiness Index, as well as surveys for the Alzheimer’s Association as reported in Time and on NPR and CNN.
Who would ever think that old-fashioned paper surveys, mailed through the U.S. post office, are a good way to conduct customer satisfaction research? Not us — until Versta Research faced a rather difficult need for research, and we could think of no better way. And to our happy surprise, it worked! Not only did it work, but it easily outperformed other typical modes of research these days. Our old-fashioned paper-based mail survey got a 25% response rate, with no additional attempts, outreach, or reminders.
Our old-fashioned paper-based mail survey got a 25% response rate, with no additional attempts, outreach, or reminders.
Here is the story of that survey—why we did it on paper, the problems we solved, the steps we took to conduct it, and why the survey succeeded beyond what we had hoped. Now, a seemingly super simple customer satisfaction survey is one of the most interesting and memorable research efforts of my career. We hope it provides some valuable insights for you about how to design and execute surveys when facing situations you may have never encountered before.
Our client was a community bank, located in an urban neighborhood that continually transforms as new waves of immigrants settle into the city, assimilate, and make way for new populations from other countries. Their retail customers speak over 30 native languages besides English. They come from countries in Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Latin American—a true melting pot of cultures, languages, and religions from around the world.
The bank did not have good e-mail addresses or phone numbers for most, and even if they did, we worried about a research firm reaching out to them in today’s political climate. What the bank did have, of course, were postal addresses being used every month for sending account statements.
On top of that, the bank is small. With only 4,000 retail customers, there was no opportunity to think about sampling or potential stratification. Research industry response rates are exceedingly low these days, in the neighborhood of one to three percent. Our goal for a minimum sample size is generally 300. That would mean reaching out to every customer and achieving a 7.5% response rate. Yikes.
To make that happen (if it could happen) we thought through every last detail of making the survey easy, attractive, and trustworthy. We ended up designing a research approach quite specific to this unique population and challenge.
Paper Survey. With no e-mail addresses or phone numbers, our best option seemed to be a paper survey sent through the mail. We considered in-person surveys, or distributing surveys at bank branches, but the sporadic nature of in-person visits made that impractical. Regular U.S. mail from the bank would be expected, welcome, and probably opened, so that was our choice. We decided to make this mailing special by sending it separate from the monthly statements, along with a postage-paid return envelope. We hoped to grab attention with an excellent layout, warm invitation, and generous incentive.
Tested Design. The last time I designed and conducted a paper survey was back in graduate school while working for the university’s office of policy and planning. That was a long time ago. But there are still people who know a lot about designing, and rigorously testing and refining, excellent surveys on paper: the U.S. Census Bureau. So we printed out a copy of the American Community Survey and it became our blueprint for how to ask questions on paper. Then we gave it to our graphic design team and asked them to create the exact same look and feel for this unique mode of administration.
Good Incentive. Customers were offered $5 for completing the survey, which the bank would deposit directly into their accounts. That seemed like an attractive amount for a non-affluent population and for a simple 5-minute task. Looking back, perhaps we could have paid less (maybe $2) and easily hit our target of n=300. But we also knew there were no second chances. Unlike e-mail which is nearly instantaneous and allows for easy testing, we could not recalibrate and adjust once we launched. We all agreed that paying a good incentive was a commitment worth making up front.
Super Short. The bank had never surveyed its customers, and they wanted to know a lot. But filling out surveys is a burden, and with all the challenges we faced in overcoming resistance and having no second chance, we argued for a very short survey. In the end, we asked 16 questions, which took respondents roughly five minutes to answer, laid out on two pages (the inside facing pages of a 17”x11” folded piece of paper). It was short enough to keep respondents engaged, and we still got detailed data for a rich analysis of satisfaction, importance of services, age differences, banking with competitors, and much more.
Multiple Languages. Our survey documented 30 different languages used by the bank’s customers, and of course we surveyed only one-quarter of them. Translating into all these languages was not financially feasible, nor did we know exactly what all the languages might be. So bank staff estimated we could focus on these top five: English, Russian, Arabic, Spanish, and Hindi. The invitation included in the survey offered prominent call-outs with text in each language explaining the survey (and the $5 incentive) and providing instructions on how to access non-English versions.
Online Option. We had to offer an online version for one big reason: the survey was offered in five languages, and there was no way of knowing which version should be sent to whom. Nor was it practical to offer all versions by mail, because the mailing needed to be clean and inviting. So we translated and programmed the full survey online, accessible directly from the bank’s website. Each mailed survey offered a unique 5-digit survey code for access, which we intentionally did not call a “PIN” in order to avoid any confusion with other banking-related PINs.
Versta Invisibility. Sometimes highlighting the involvement of an outside firm enhances the credibility of a survey. It can offer a reassuring promise that even negative feedback is welcome and useful. For this population, however, we expected sensitivity around a third party collecting data, and therefore decided that all communications should come from, and return to, the bank. The invitation and survey were on bank letterhead, and the postage-paid return envelope was returned to the bank, as well. We did not promise respondents anonymity, but the bank agreed to let us manage the data and strip out PII in the process.
We were nervous for weeks after the mail drop. One or two came back each day. We fretted knowing that there was no way to remediate if our plan didn’t work—no easy way to send reminders, or boost the incentive, or reach out to more sample, or make more phone calls. For three weeks it seemed we might be looking at failure.
Then our contact at the bank called: “We just got 500 surveys!” No, we did not believe it. As good researchers, we searched for disconfirming evidence by considering all the alternative explanations of what had happened. Perhaps the 500 surveys were returned as bad addresses (but surely we must have a good list—the bank mails statements every month). Perhaps the printer mailed back the overage and these surveys were blank (but we confirmed the printer had only a handful, and they did not ship them back).
There was no way to remediate if our plan didn’t work—no easy way to send reminders, or boost the incentive, or reach out to more sample, or make more phone calls.
Well, it was true, they really did get 500 surveys, and more than 500 additional surveys came on top of those. Our old-fashioned paper-based mail survey got a 25% response rate, with no additional attempts, outreach, or reminders.
When I shared the final research report with the bank’s executive committee, the CFO jumped in quickly to ask why they got such a great and unexpected response rate. I answered by segueing into the results of the survey: they had strong relationships with customers; their customers really like them; they had not poisoned the well by nagging with a survey after every transaction.
I should have taken some credit, as well. We knew the challenges we faced. We thought through every approach possible and addressed every point of resistance we could anticipate. We brought up-to-date knowledge and expertise, and applied it to some old-fashioned techniques in novel ways that were truly unique.
Yes, old-fashioned paper surveys are still a viable option. In some cases they may be the only option. If you know what you are doing, you can make them as successful as online surveys—and maybe even go 22% better.

Ratio is comparing something to something.
To get from 2 to 10, you times it by 5. You now need to times 3 x 5.
3) I now have 20 plums and 12 bananas in a fruit bowl. I want you to simplify this. There is 2 methods.
You know they can both be divided by 2. So, do 20 divided by 2 and 12 divided by 2.
You know they can both be divided by 4. So, do 20 divided by 4 and 12 divided by 4.
Your simplified ratio is 5 plums : 3 bananas.
You get the SAME answers in the end. Method 2 is quicker!
4) I now have 15 plums and 6 bananas in a fruit bowl. I want you to find out : If I had 1 plum how many bananas I would have. (This is a bit more difficult).
You know they can both be divided by 3. So, do 15 divided by 3 and 6 divided by 3.
You divide 5 by 5 so you get 1 as you need to find out how many bananas you would have if you had 1 plum. Then you need to divide 2 by 5.
Your answer would be : If you had 1 plum you would have 0.4 bananas.
This is where you work out sums to find out what is cheapest etc.
Small tub = 500g and it is 54p.
You need to change the weight of all the butters so they are the same weight. You will then be able to see what butter is better by looking at the price. We will change them all to 1kg because that is the easiest way.
(x2) (divide by 2) best butter is Family Tub.
What amount of cereal is cheaper to buy?
Looking at this you might think the 200g is cheaper but it isn't! First convert them all to the same weight. 100g is the easiest way.
The cheapest one is 300g because for every 100g it is only 35p.

Rice is the dominant food crop of Bangladesh. In Faridpur region, growing Aman Rice followed by Boro Rice is a popular cropping pattern. The time between Aman rice harvest in December and Boro Rice transplanting in February is not sufficient to grow a crop and therefore the land remains unused for two months. Replacing traditional Aman rice varieties with varieties which mature 30 days earlier without significant yield loss would allow farmers to grow a short season crop such as oil seed mustard between the Aman and Boro rice crops. Cereal Systems Initiative for South Asia in Bangladesh (CSISA-BD) has been working in Faridpur region from its inception to introduce oil seed mustard. Farmers were initially reluctant to adopt this crop as they feared cultivating a third crop would delay the transplanting of the Boro rice. Therefore, to popularize this third crop, CSISA-BD conducted field demonstrations in 34 farmers’ field at Faridpur Sadar and NagarkandaUpazilas showcasing Aman-Mustard-Boro cropping patterns compared with an Aman-Boro cropping pattern. In the demonstration plots, short duration mustard verities Tori-7, BARI Sarisha 14 and BARI Sarisha 15 were grown after new short duration Aman rice varieties such as BBRI Dhan49 and Bina Dhan7. To save time the mustard was sown onto the wet paddy soils just before the harvest of the aman rice crop. By the time the aman crop was harvested, the mustard seed had germinated and the crop was established. Using conventional tillage systems would have required delaying sowing the mustard seed after the harvest of the rice crop and after the rice fields had dried out sufficiently to allow power tillers to till the land. The two or three passes of the power tiller required to achieve a fine enough tilth for mustard seed sowing would have further delayed planting. By using this relay system at least 20 days are saved which is vital if the mustard crop is to be harvested before the optimal time for Boro rice transplanting. Since it is not necessary to hire power tillers to prepare the land for mustard seed sowing and the system takes advantage of residual moisture from the rice crop to induce mustard seed germination, this eliminates most land preparation and irrigation costs. The yield and production costs from the demonstration plots were carefully collected by the Faridpur team and showed that farmers earned an extra $316 / ha from the plots growing the best yielding mustard, BARI Sarisha 14. This variety produced 0.94 t/ha grain in 80 days. The demonstrations showed farmers that by planting early maturing, high yielding aman rice varieties it was possible to grow a dry season cash earner such as oil seed mustard without delaying boro rice transplanting and as a result many farmers are now adopting this cropping system.

Mary’s mom is getting ready for Mary’s birthday party. She blew up 6.0 balloons this morning and 5.0 balloons this afternoon. How many balloons  did she blow up in all? Answer:

There were two twins. One of them was sleeping 8 hours a day, and the other one was sleeping 6 hours a day, every day.
They were living like this until they turned 72 years old.
How many years did each of them spend sleeping?
Answer: 24 and 18 years.
The first one was sleeping 8 hours a day, so he was sleeping 1/3 of his life, so in total he was sleeping 72/3 = 24 years.
The second one was sleeping 6 hours a day, so he was sleeping 1/4 of his life, so in total he was sleeping 72/4 = 18 years.

Ed. Note: This is a preview of the Sept. 19 Town Council meeting. The Block Island Times will be featuring previews of upcoming meetings.
The Town Housing Initiative and the island’s Emergency Management will be two of 10 items on the agenda for the Town Council’s meeting on Sept. 19 at 7 p.m. at Town Hall.
Town Manager Ed Roberge told The Times the discussion about housing will emphasize the need for “flexibility,” as the town moves forward to create town employee housing at the Thomas Property. The Town Council previously approved exploring construction of a single-family dwelling for a senior town employee and multiple efficiency apartments on the Thomas Property.
The Council has $1.5 million in bonding at its disposal for addressing the project, which was approved at the May 7 Financial Town Meeting.
The Town of New Shoreham was awarded a $50,000 Emergency Management Performance Grant on Sept. 6 from Rhode Island’s Emergency Management Agency. Bill McCombe, co-director of the town’s Emergency Management program, said Gov. Gina Raimondo and RIEMA Director Peter Gaynor were instrumental in facilitating the grant, which would be used for upgrading the Public Safety Building’s generator.
McCombe recommended that property owners on Block Island run through a checklist in preparation for hurricane season. He said that it’s a good idea to store away outdoor furniture, check propane tanks, and have batteries and flashlights at the ready in case of a power outage.
Six other items on the Council’s agenda include the Block Island Rescue Squad’s summer wrap-up report; proposed amendments to the zoning ordinance involving accessory apartments and standards for town employee accessory apartments; a report from Building Official Marc Tillson regarding inspections of accessory apartments; and a discussion about what items should be placed on the Town Council’s agenda.
Litigation involving Rhode Island Fast Ferry, and Sarah McGinnes versus the Town of New Shoreham regarding the town’s purchase of two-third shares of the Block Island Power Company, are two items that the Town Council might discuss in closed session.

Legal protections for civil servants who refuse to carry out illegal orders.
The law’s on your side—but you should give a lawyer a call before you say no to Donald Trump.

Imagine you’re a midlevel staffer in a federal department—any federal department. You come into work one morning in your drab Washington office and learn that President Donald Trump has signed an executive order that directly affects your job. Reading the order, you realize that to fulfill it, you’d need to act in a way you’re not comfortable with. In fact, the thing Trump’s asking you to do might be illegal. What now?
Perhaps your first worried thought is of Sally Yates. When Yates announced Monday that (for “as long as I am the Acting Attorney General”) she would not defend President Trump’s ban on travel from seven Muslim-majority countries, she was fired, of course. Yates wasn’t simply refusing to execute a policy she found unwise. She was refusing to execute one that is probably illegal, just as she assured none other than Sen. Jeff Sessions she’d do during her 2015 confirmation hearings.
But Yates’ fate won’t necessarily be yours. Although the president can fire Cabinet officials, such as the attorney general, for almost any reason, most government employees aren’t so easy to get rid of. Civil servants—that is, the rank-and-file members who make up the vast majority of the federal government—also take an oath to uphold the Constitution, some version of which has been used since the first Congress. Moreover, federal law (5 U.S.C. §2302(b)(9)(D), if you’re curious) makes it illegal to remove a civil servant “for refusing to obey an order that would require the individual to violate a law.” This provision was enacted as part of the Whistleblower Protection Act, in order to protect (as the law’s legislative history put it) “the right of American citizens to a law-abiding government.” And it’s no answer for the Trump administration to insist that its executive order is the law. In a decision last year, a federal court of appeals concluded that “law,” in Section 2302, doesn’t include an executive branch regulation or order. Rather, “law” means a valid statute (and, given that it’s the “supreme law of the land,” the Constitution as well).
But say you do refuse to go along with a likely illegal order. What happens then? After all, your superiors—who, if you go high enough up the chain, will eventually be political appointees, subject to direct presidential control—presumably won’t agree that President Trump’s orders violate the law. If you’re fired or suspended for refusing to execute an unlawful order, the Merit Systems Protection Board steps in. The MSPB exists to protect and enforce the civil-service requirements, including the protection against being required to execute illegal or unconstitutional orders. To do that, it’s empowered to hear appeals regarding civil servants’ terminations, reductions in pay, or suspensions. The board can conduct hearings, receive evidence, and ultimately decide whether an employee can lawfully be disciplined.
Of course, the MSPB is itself an executive agency, and therefore subject to Presidential control. The three-member board is currently down to just one person—an Obama appointee named Mark Robbins. President Trump has informed Robbins that he will serve as vice chairman—presumably under a new chair nominated by Trump. It’s conceivable, in other words, that the president could stack the MSPB with appointees who regarded his orders as perfectly legal and who would therefore not be inclined to shield the civil servants who were refusing to carry them out.
Even then, however, our system has an answer. Decisions of the MSPB are themselves reviewable in federal court—specifically, in the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit and (ultimately) the Supreme Court. Those federal courts would decide for themselves whether the Trump administration’s behavior was (in administrative-law parlance) “arbitrary, capricious, an abuse of discretion, or otherwise not in accordance with law.” In other words, the legal conscience of a career civil servant might well provide the eventual vehicle for the Supreme Court to consider the legality of the Trump administration’s most controversial policies.
Of course, asserting your legal rights and standing up to the government you work for aren’t always easy and come with substantial risks. (For one thing, a court might end up agreeing with the Trump administration that its orders were perfectly lawful.) The wise civil servant who was ready to refuse a Trump executive order would do well to talk with a lawyer beforehand. That’s why I’ve offered to represent, pro bono, any government official who refuses to execute a Trump order on the grounds that the order is illegal. A huge number of other lawyers—in particular, professors Daniel Epps (of Washington University in St. Louis) and Leah Litman (of the University of California–Irvine)—have offered their services as well, as have countless other lawyers, paralegals, law students, legal secretaries, and even (my favorite) a bartender in Cleveland.
No government program or White House command is self-executing. It takes thousands and thousands of people, distributed throughout the country, to transform an illegal order into an injustice. These loyal civil servants were there before President Trump arrived and they will mostly be there when he’s gone. Are you one of them? If so: The American system provides you with a choice. You can insist that you were just following orders. Or you can follow the law.

Our place is a 3 level 3 year old townhome that has fantastic views from every window. We are clean but kid friendly. We have 3 children, Megan is 15, Trenton is 13 and Connor is 10. Bella the black lab and Bob the cat live with us as well and we can arrange boarding or you are welcome to hang with them. We have everything a family would need to be comfortable and all of our attractions are close at hand and easy to get to from here.
I had the opportunity to visit Huntington Beach in March and it was such a great place for kids that I would love to return with them. They are snow-boarders all winter and now would like to try the surfer experience by summer's end.
We live in a beautiful suburb of Vancouver that is a mere 10 minutes away from all Vancouver's attractions. Port Moody.
Is situated at the end of the inlet and you are 5 minutes away from the beach, 2 beautiful lakes - one beachy for kids, the other supplies canoe and kayak rentals - as well as fishing. We have great hiking trails and there is a large park within walking distance with tennis court, water spary park, basketball hoops and play ground. The house is clean, fully equiped and kid/pet friendly. Great places to eat and everything is close by.
Not to mention great shopping!

Shawn and Ellie are construction workers. Shawn can complete a concrete job in 4 hours, while Ellie can complete it in 6 hours.

This function is used to create a stack for use by the code compiled by the JIT optimization of pcre[16|32]_study(). The arguments are a starting size for the stack, and a maximum size to which it is allowed to grow. The result can be passed to the JIT run-time code by pcre[16|32]_assign_jit_stack(), or that function can set up a callback for obtaining a stack. A maximum stack size of 512K to 1M should be more than enough for any pattern. For more details, see the pcrejit page. There is a complete description of the PCRE native API in the pcreapi page and a description of the POSIX API in the pcreposix page.

GopherCentral Library: Playing with a 10-foot-tall dog.
Everybody loves dogs. Well, almost everybody. They haven't been man's best friend for 10,000 years for nothing. But how fun and how playful would you be with your pooch if his head were as high as a basketball hoop? One guy used a little digital editing to demonstrate what living with a ten-foot-tall Jack Russell terrier would be like.
Personally, I think it looks like fun.
With a little imagination and a lot of computer editing you can see just how fun it would be to have a 10 foot tall Jack Russell terrier. Answer: a LOT of fun.

The greatest common factor is usually used when simplifying fractions, and it’s one of those topics that you learn pretty early on in your education but can easily forget or mistake for a different math idea, mainly the least common multiple. But before we can talk about the greatest common factor, often written as the GCF, we first have to know what a plain old regular factor is.
Simply put, the factors of a number are the smaller numbers that make up that original one. Saying that slightly more mathematically sounds like this: The factors of a number are the different numbers that you can multiply together to get that original number. But a lot of math topics are best shown with examples, and this is probably one of them.
Let’s start by looking at the factors of 6. The factors of 6 are going to be 2 and 3, because 2 x 3 = 6. It’s also true that 1 and 6 are factors, then, because 1 x 6 is also equal to 6. That gives us our full list for the factors of 6 as 1, 2, 3, and 6.
How about the factors of 60? Well, I know I can always do 1 times the number, so that works for this. Also, 60 is even, so I know 2 works, and 2 x 30 = 60. If we try dividing 60 by 3, we get 20, so that means I can add 3 and 20 to the list. If we continue on up, we find that 4 and 15, 5 and 12, 6 and 10 work - but the next one that works is 10 and 6, and this is basically just a repeat of 6 and 10. So, at this point we can stop, because the rest of the multiplication problems we do are just all repeats of numbers we’ve already got on our list. That makes the factors of 60 all the different numbers you see here: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30, 60. Quite a lot of them.
So, now we’re ready to talk about what this lesson is really on: the greatest common factor , or GCF. In order to find a GCF, we need to be looking at two numbers, say 10 and 22. Then, we simply ask ourselves, of the factors these two numbers have, which one’s the biggest that they have in common?
Well, factors of 10 are 1 and 10 and 2 and 5, while the factors of 22 are 1 and 22 and 2 and 11. That makes the greatest common factor of 10 and 22 2, because it’s the biggest number I see on both the lists. That’s it!
Let’s try a few more examples just to make sure you’ve got it. Maybe this one: find the GCF of 27 and 45. We’ll start by listing out the factors of each of these numbers individually, just like we learned earlier.
Looking at 27 first, 1 will always work, so we can start there. 27 is odd, so 2 is not going to work, but we can do 3 x 9. The next one that works is 9 x 3, so you’ve started repeating, and we can stop. That makes our list for the factors for 27 pretty short - just 1, 3, 9 and 27.
Next with 45 - after we count 1 and 45, we can again rule 2 out, but 3 and 15 is good, 4 doesn’t work, but 5 x 9 does, and the next one is 9 x 5, so we’ve hit our repeating point. That makes our list of factors of 45 what you see here: 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, 45.
So, answering the original question, ‘What is the GCF of these two numbers?’, is as easy as picking out the biggest number that is on both of these lists. Looks like 9 is our winner!
Last example: Find the greatest common factor between 4 and 16. We again begin by writing out all the factors of these two numbers. For 4, we get 1, 2 and 4, while for 16 we get 1, 2, 4, 8 and 16. So, the greatest common factor of 4 and 16 is the biggest number that’s on both lists. That’s 4.
Notice that 4 was one of the original numbers from the problem. That’s totally okay! Some people get a little freaked out that this isn’t allowed and decide to go with 2 instead because it’s the next one down on the list. Don’t do that! It’s okay if the GCF is one of the original numbers from the problem.
To review: the factors of a number are the different numbers that you can multiply together to get that original number. The greatest common factor of two numbers is the biggest factor that they both have in common and is often written as the GCF for short. It’s okay to have the GCF of two numbers be one of the original numbers itself. And finally, as a side note, the place in math where you’ll use this the most often is when you’re simplifying fractions.

Trying to balance work, school, home, and your social life can be quite difficult, especially when you are trying to save money. Don’t let procrastination have an impact on your wallet. Through stashing cash and cutting expenses, you can begin saving. Let’s look at five easy things you can do to save money.
Although this may seem untraditional, internet money-savers sent to your inbox is an easy to gain access to freebies, samples, and an endless supply of coupons. Most of these sites allow you to limit the number of emails sent so you’re inbox isn’t clogged. These easy offers are great for using around the house or trying out before purchasing.
When completing projects or tackling tasks, many individuals tend to run to the store for items they need. Ask your family, friends, or neighbors if they have what the job requires before opening your pocketbook to purchase something new. If you are connected on social media sites, link up with networks that are selling items that are gently used. You’ll be surprised to see how many people are exactly in the same situation as you and creating that kind of network can save everyone a pretty penny as well.
Review your bank statements or monthly costs and find at least one expense that you can cut, reduce, or negotiate away. This can range anywhere from a gym membership you don’t use to additional television channels you are paying a premium for. Furthermore, keep credit cards at home in a safe place. This makes it less likely that you will pull it out with friends and spend unnecessary money.
Look at the items you buy most frequently at the grocery store and compare prices in newspapers when they are delivered. Often there are coupons or price alerts for these items. This is even simpler if you use an online food shopping site as you can easily see the deals when they are added to your shopping cart. Sticking to your grocery list is also the best way to avoid unhealthy, unnecessary and costly items that make your bill go up.
Turn off and unplug items that are not in use such as charging appliances, lights, and heating and air conditioning. Programmable thermostats are a great way to automatically regulate the temperature in a home. Compare your bills and see how much money you have saved after a month to pinpoint what major appliances are draining your dollars. Think long run as good habits will make you keep more money in your pockets. A dollar here, a dollar there, try to remember that a dollar saved is two dollars earned, that’s how you’re starting to create wealth.

There are 2 kinds or types of the shellfish one is the crustacea like as shrimp, the crab and the lobster and other second one is the mollusks like as the clams, the mussels, the oysters and the scallops. The reaction to crustacean shellfish tends to be particularly severe.
It is a small frees wimming crustacean that is with an elongated body. It is a typically marine creature. It has been frequently used for commercial importance as a food.
Shrimp allergy is the abnormal response by the body immune system to the proteins present in certain marine animals.
All type of food allergies are caused by the immune system overreaction or malfunctions. The immune system identifies certain shellfish protein as being harmful, triggering the production of the antibodies to shellfish protein called allergen as it makes a person allergic to shrimp. When the next time you come in the contact with the allergen, the immune system releases the chemical called as histamine and some other chemicals that cause allergy symptoms and the allergy itself.
Allergies can also cause a severe and potentially life threatening reaction known as the anaphylaxis. The anaphylactic reaction to shrimp or anything else is a medical emergency which requires the treatment with the epinephrine which is an adrenaline injection and a trip to emergency room.
A swollen throat or a lump in the throat , airway constriction t makes it difficult for you to breathe.
In case of severe allergy the shrimp allergy can lead to the anaphylaxis which is a dangerous allergic reaction and it is marked by the swollen throat resulting in the airway constriction, the rapid pulse, the shock, and the dizziness or the lightheadedness. Anaphylaxis can be very life threatening.
Anaphylaxis could be treated with the emergency injection of the epinephrine which is the adrenaline. If you are at the risk of having the severe allergic reaction to shrimp, you always should carry the injectable epinephrine the EpiPen, Auvi-Q or some others.
In the skin test, the skin is pricked and then exposed to small amount of the proteins found in the shrimp. If you are allergic, you will develop the raised bump called as hive at the test site on the skin.
The history of the allergic reactions shortly after the exposure to the shellfish can be the sign of shrimp allergy, However, allergy testing is only sure way to tell what is causing the symptoms and to rule out some other possibilities like food poisoning.
If you have severe allergic reaction to shrimp like (anaphylaxis, you will likely need the emergency injection of the epinephrine which is the adrenaline. If you are at the risk of having the severe reaction, carry the injectable epinephrine with you at all the times. If you are at the risk for the anaphylaxis to shrimp, your doctor may instruct you to administer the epinephrine even at the first sign of the allergic reaction. After you use the epinephrine, seek the emergency medical care.
If you have the shrimp allergy, the only best possible way to avoid the allergic reaction is to avoid the use of shrimp and shrimp products that contain shrimp. Even a small amount of the shrimp can cause the severe reaction in some of the people.
Shrimp is rarely a hidden ingredient however, it may be in the fish stock or in the seafood flavoring. The companies are required to label the product that contains the shrimp or other food that often cause the allergic reactions. However regulations do not apply to the mollusks like as clams, oysters and scallops.
You may also need to completely avoid those places where shrimp is prepared or processed. Some of the people react after touching shrimp or by inhaling steam from cooking of shrimp.
It is not true that people with shrimp allergy also will be allergic to the iodine or the radiocontrast dye used in some of the lab procedures. Reactions to the radiocontrast material or to the iodine is not related to the shrimp allergy.

Catalyzed by a renovation study commissioned by the Carnegie Mellon University, the Mellon Institute Habitat addresses challenges specific to the Institute and the College of Science housed within. The study determined that the vast majority of campus traffic was entering the building through an existing loading dock, providing an foreboding, industrial, and compartmentalized entryway that did not foster interaction nor speak to the science being done in the building.
The greater structure of Mellon Institute is built around four interior courtyards that provide light wells into the four quadrants of the building. In developing the Habitat, it was paramount that some of that natural daylight be captured in a space fostering human interaction. The resulting gathering space speaks to the open and collaborative nature of the research done in the College of Science, as well as a thoughtful treatment of a main thoroughfare and entrance.
Many materials and forms shape the newly-open space. An expansive dark ocean blue glass wall wraps around the front of the room and out into the corridor, establishing a focal point within the room in addition to a functional writing surface. LED-illuminated white-board sleeves envelop existing brick columns in the corridor and help serve as beacons within the quadrant. The bright furniture creates pops of color that emphasize a harmonious contrast with the white walls and ceiling. Historic mailboxes that had been in the existing space were incorporated and showcased within a rear mail wall.
Serving as a node of expression, connection, and growth, the Habitat is an inviting destination that cultivates vital social experiences among like-minded people. The space serves as a neutral ground that fosters and facilitates knowledge exchanges in a fun, playful, and light environment.

A nurse put 100 gloves into 4 containers. She puts gloves in the containers in such a way that each container has two more gloves than the one before. How many gloves are in each container?
Answer: 22, 24, 26, and 28 gloves.
Let X be the number of gloves in the first container. Then there are X+2 gloves in the 2-nd container, X+4 gloves in the 3-rd container, and X+6 gloves in the 4-th container. Hence, we have X+X+2+X+4+X+6=100. Solving for X, we get X=22 gloves in the first container, 24 gloves in the 2-nd container, 26 gloves in the 3-rd container and 28 gloves in the 4-th container.

How is Facebook planning to improve transparency around federal election advertisements?
How is Facebook planning to improve transparency around federal election advertisements?
Answer: by creating an archive for all advertisements on its platform.
New rules for advertising through Facebook will take effect in Canada before being established in the U.S. beginning in the summer of 2018, according to a Friday announcement.
Facebook will create an archive that contains all ads put out by a certain page, so that users can see all the content that an advertiser may be running. Additionally, Facebook will inform users if they are among an ad’s targeted audience. These rules will apply to all ads, not just political ones. There will be additional rules for federal election ads, and will include information on the amount spent on the ad, the number of views it has received and demographics of the viewing audience.
“Transparency helps everyone, especially political watchdog groups and reporters, keep advertisers accountable for who they say they are and what they say to different groups,” said Rob Goldman, Facebook's vice president for ads, in a blog post on the announcement.
The move comes just days before Facebook, along with Twitter and Google, is scheduled to deliver testimony on foreign interference in elections before a Senate intelligence committee.

We have a love-hate relationship with Roots.
What we’ve learned in the past 18 months of developing WordPress ecosystems with Trellis, Bedrock and Sage is that Roots claims to be a faster way to develop WordPress websites, but that’s not the whole story.
Our experience has been that lack of clarity on what technology, exactly, is being used. And what aspects of that technology you actually need to know, was completely unclear. As a result, this left us ignorant and dozens of times with a bricked application at critical moments in the development process with little to no help (even when we were willing to pay for it).
Roots is a WordPress ecosystem. Not just a way to build WordPress sites faster. Similarly to Laravel, though on a much smaller scale.
Roots has a massive learning curve for a typical WordPress developer and an impossible one for a WordPress power user. Despite their documentation making it look easy, if there is a problem you’re probably on your own. Just look at our past Blog Posts for examples.
Roots isn’t really a thing in and of itself. Like WordPress is a custom-written code library in PHP, HTML and JS. Rather, it’s probably best describe as a book of rules about how to develop WordPress ecosystems. It’s always advancing (which is great in some ways) and on the bleeding edge (not great in a lot of ways).
Read the documentation on Ansible from start to finish.
Take a course on Ansible, for free, on Pluralsight.
Skim through our Blog Posts in the Roots tag, do the same on StackOverflow. Just being aware of the keywords and titles will help you when you encounter the issues. Our experience has been that Windows, Ubuntu and Mac all have hyper-specific issues that are not mentioned in the documentation and do not have complete solutions for. Leaving you with a worthless pile of code with no where to go.
Lastly, sadly, our experience was that Ben, the founder of Roots, doesn’t respect some basic etiquette rules in their forums – namely allowing someone to pay for support or to share their opinion if it challenges his. So, to circumvent this, we created a StackOverflow tag which we’ve found to be useful and growing. Hopefully you’ll have a more inclusive and professional experience than we did on the official Roots forums, but we hope that StackOverflow’s communal moderation will be safer and stronger than Ben’s all-powerful approach.
In the end, Ben has stated that they have no intention of working with WordPress core to try and move it forward. So we feel it’s an ecosystem that will diverge more and more from WordPress because of arrogance. Which is so sad because almost everything about Roots is a true improvement. And the WordPress Core team is fully of open-minded, helpful, eager-to-improve contributors.

Plasmodium falciparum malaria and hospital associated visits among patients with hemoglobin variants attending general hospital Potiskum, Yobe State, Nigeria.
Malaria remains a major public health concern and a threat to the lives of people living in continuous malaria transmission regions of the world. While haemoglobin variants results in increased risks of morbidity due to the abnormality of haemoglobin molecules, the possession of these variants provides some degrees of acquired protections against malaria. This research was conducted to determine the common haemoglobinopathies and variation in parasitaemia among malaria infected persons in relation to hospital visits due to malaria in Potiskum Local Government Area, Yobe State, Nigeria. Venous blood was used to determine malaria parasitaemia and genotype of patients with fever related illnesses. Results obtained revealed patients with genotype AA having high parasite load, with 20 (32.79%) having moderate parasitaemia and 39 (63.93%) with low parasitaemia. However, due to low turnout of patients with sickle cell traits (SS), result obtained shows very low 18 (56.25%) to no parasitaemia 14 (43.75%) respectively. A total of 57 patients (35 (23.33%) males and 22 (14.67%) females have AS genotypes; 32 (18 (12%) males and 14 (9.33%) females with SS genotypes and 61 (31 (20.67%) males and 30(20%) females with AA genotypes. Certain mechanisms had been proved to proffer protections in patients with abnormal haemoglobin.

I recently became the 4th (out of 4) victim of debit card fraud in my immediate family. And I get that that it’s a huge racket; but I cannot understand how someone can somehow walk in a store and use my debit card without the pin number hundreds of miles from home. But I digress….
Starting August 1, we will use credit cards to make all of our non-cash purchase (utilities, groceries, eating out, etc.). Chase has a card that will give us 50,000 reward points (equal to $600 in travel purchases or $500 cash back) for charging $4,000 in 90 days (or something like that) as well as cash back on all expenditures after that.
And yes, after a year of spending every cent (except for $1,000 of our savings) we had to eliminate all debt, a credit card scares me. I actually had a dream last night where I forgot to pay the bill and we somehow ran up more debt than our home is worth, while also spending the rest of our money traveling. I woke up in a panic…. However, the pros seem to outweigh the cons in this scenario, so we will give it a shot for the remainder of this year and see how it ends up.
