Firms operating in the television industry lie at the interface between two markets. In the first one, they sell their audience and part of their broad- casting time to advertising companies (the advertising market). In the second they compete for increasing the size of their audiences by proposing attrac- tive program-mixes to TV-viewers (the audience market). Two major links make these markets tightly interrelated.

To familiarize ourselves with what to expect (in recruitment effort and equipment found) in schools and health care buildings, we began by surveying a high school and a medical clinic in the San Francisco area. We then recruited and surveyed a variety of buildings in Pittsburgh in April, and Atlanta in June 2003. Site recruitment is one of the most difficult and time consuming aspects of commercial building surveys. Usually it involves cold-calling from a list of prospective business or building types (e.g., high schools), briefly describing...

Granting and denying access to the a database is crucial for a secure network environment. You can configure access control through a firewall or on the database. For firewall support, you can configure Oracle Connection Manager to function as a firewall, whereby it grants or denies clients access to a particular database service or a computer based on a set of filtering rules. For the database, you can configure access control parameters in the sqlnet.ora file to specify that clients using a particular protocol are allowed or denied access....

We propose a two-step inversion of three-component seismograms that ( 1) recovers the far-field source time function at each station and (2) estimates the distribution of co-seismic slip on the fault plane for small earthquakes (magnitude 3 to 4). The empirical Green’s function (EGF) method consists of finding a small earthquake located near the one we wish to study and then performing a deconvolution to remove the path, site, and instrumental effects from the main-event signal.

The best practices described in this paper require that the Data Guard configuration be managed by the Data Guard Broker9. The Data Guard Broker is responsible for sending FAN events to client applications in order to clean up their connections to the down database and reconnect to the new production database. In addition, Oracle Clusterware must be installed and active on the primary and standby sites for both single instance (using Oracle Restart) and Oracle RAC databases.

Empirical evidence suggests that movements in international relative prices (such as the real exchange rate) are large and persistent. Nontraded goods, both in the form of ¯nal consumption goods and as an input into the production of ¯- nal tradable goods, are an important aspect behind international relative price movements. In this paper we show that nontraded goods have important impli- cations for exchange rate behavior, even though °uctuations in the relative price of nontraded goods account for a relatively small fraction of real exchange rate movements.

To the foregoing one might add the approach which, in addition to culture as an internal variable or as a metaphor, is centred on analysing culture as a broader variable, which goes beyond the organisation and its most immediate environment, introducing the nations’ culture (cross cultural-cross national perspective) as one of the conditioning elements of control systems (Inzerilli and Rosen, 1983; Ronen, 1986; Nath, 1988; Shin et al, 1990; Lachman et al., 1994).

To validate the event mean concentrations, flow data was obtained by a flow meter that measured gallons used in the entire boat wash area. The flow meter allowed use to accurately determine the amount of wash water flowing into the Modular Wetlands Device. The flow meter was not installed until approximately July 3 so no flow data was available prior to the installation. Electronic readings were taken for pH, TDS, Conductivity, Temperature, Oxidation Reduction Potential (ORP), and Turbidity.

Magnetotelluric surveys (soundings) are a naturalsource electromagnetic (EM) geophysical method that utilizes variations in the Earth’s magnetic field to image subsurface structures. A magnetotelluric sounding was attempted at Weyburn but has not produced results. Consequently, a final assessment of its utility is not available (Monea et al., 2008). Electrical resistance tomography (ERT) is a technique of imaging subsurface electrical conductivity. When deployed in time-lapse mode, it is capable of detecting conductivity changes caused by the injection of CO2.

Income statements in the accounting world focus heavily on revenue as a function of company volume and as a measure of company growth. The principal source of revenue for insurance companies is premium from insurance sales. (The other principal source of revenue for insurers is typically investment income.) The timing of when a company can recognize sales revenue in its income statement is a major issue for most accounting systems.

Keynes’s liquidity preference theory touched on the maturity transformation issue. He argued that the private sector’s willingness to assume liquidity and maturity risks is not well-anchored in fundamentals. Instead it is strongly influenced by subjective factors. Hence his policy prescription was that government debt issuance should “accommodate the preferences of the public for different maturities”. It was, he argued, socially desirable that risk-averse investors should be offered some minimum, safe return on their capital.

Diaspora investors tend to have different perceptions of risk than non-diaspora investors. Given their homeland connections, diaspora members may have better information about investment opportunities in their countries of origin and are less sensitive to exchange-rate risks than other investors, because they have domestic-currency obligations in their country of origin such as support payments to family members or running costs of domestic businesses, mortgages, or returns to domestic share-holders. They also may have a different time horizon.
