An animal bite that breaks or punctures the skin has a significant chance of producing a bacterial infection. If any wild animal or pet bites and breaks the skin, the wound should be evaluated by a healthcare professional. Animal bites are common and bites of some animals (e.g. stray dogs, raccoons, bats) may transmit the rabies virus. Rabies is a very serious viral infection that infects the nervous system. Rabies is transmitted by a variety of wild animals. The virus can also be spread by unimmunized pets and in rare cases, immunized pets that have been...

This primer includes best-practices tips and links to resources that will enhance your ability to design, produce and purchase print responsibly. Social responsibility has economic and environmental dimensions. This broad perspective is often described as a commitment to “sustainability,” which has become a term-of-art for advancing economic activity while ensuring that we can sustain our activities in a sometimes fragile world without harming the future’s potential. Showing respect for these consequences is no longer a fringe issue.

As noted above, IFRS 4 does not require separation if the component itself meets the definition of an insurance contract. In considering whether this exemption applies, insurance risk is assessed in relation to the component. It may happen that the contract as a whole does not fall within the scope of IFRS 4 because it does not contain significant insurance risk, but that the component itself contains significant insurance risk and, had it been a separate contract, would have fallen within the definition of an insurance contract.

In recent years a number of factors have had a significant impact on the capacity of maternity services and midwives to deliver quality care. Many more women and families are recognised as having complex physical and social needs including women and families living in poverty; migrant women who do not speak English as a first language; teenage mothers; women who are misusing drugs and alcohol; women who are obese and those who have long-term conditions such as diabetes. In addition the average age of first birth is now 29.4 years compared with 28.

Being clear about the business objectives for implementing a PMO or developing its role is essential if it is to deliver significant improvements in project performance and justify the cost. Which and how many of the four objectives we described at the start are relevant will depend on the business problems the PMO is intended to overcome. Once the problems are clear and agreed, the type and range of services required to address them can be defined. This will determine the type of PMO that is needed. Only then can the type of skill and expertise needed by the PMO...

The male reproductive system is adapted for internal fertilization. The penis is a structure that has evolved to deposit sperm safely within the female’s body. The tube that passes through the penis, the urethra, has two functions. It is the pathway for sperm out of the body as well as the pathway for urine to leave the body after having been stored in the uri- nary bladder. At the time of sexual excitement, a valve closes. This valve prevents the bladder from releasing urine. At the same time, nerve impulses from the brain cause blood vessels in the penis to relax.

The third area of related work deals with creating 3-D models from 2-D sketches. Recently software has been developed that can construct a 3-D object from a 2D sketched drawing. For example, Teddy (Igarashi et al., 1997) models 3-D curved surfaces (such as a Teddy bear) from 2D freeform strokes. It creates a closed polygon from a stroke and finds a spine in center of the polygon. Next, it creates a 2D triangular mesh between the spine and the polygon perimeter, and then raises each spine vertex and smoothes the mesh. Digital Clay (Schweikardt and Gross, 2000) converts 2D...

Currently, resource allocation to applications in state- of-the-art platforms occurs through different perfor- mance optimization loops, run independently at dif- ferent levels of the software stack, such as, at the database server, operating system and storage server, in the consolidated storage environment shown in Figure 1. Each local controller typically optimizes its own local goals, e.g., hit-ratio, disk throughput, etc., oblivious to application-level goals.

At this point you can start doing your literature search. Tell your professors about what you've discovered|nine times out of ten they'll tell you to look in the \1983 AER" or \Econometrica 77" or some textbook (maybe even one of mine). And lots of the time they'll be right. You'll look there and nd \your" model|but it will be much better done, much more fully developed, and much clearer. Hey, no one said research would be easy.

Catastrophe (cat) bonds have attracted investor interest as one of the few asset classes not correlated to the global financial markets. Cat bonds were first issued in the aftermath of Hurricane Andrew and the Northridge Earthquake in the mid-1990s and the market has grown robustly since. They are the best-known example of a broader class of insurance-linked securities (ILS). Cat bonds are the most suitable ILS instrument for novice investors because they are 1) rated and 2) freely tradable by qualified investors.

Nevertheless, a first assessment of the report leads us to reiterate our doubts about the need for further regulatory reforms for the banking industry. The ESBG is of the opinion that there is an excess of financial regulation taking place that might result in an excessive and inflexible regulation, and in many cases will lead to overlaps between the different regulations, as well as unintentional consequences.

We extracted Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCCs) features for this task. MFCC are short-term spectral-based features and have been widely used in speech recognition [13] and audio event classification. We ex- tracted 12MFCC coefficients from the original audio signal using a sliding window of 40ms at fixed intervals of 20ms. The number of training and testing frames for the different methods is shown in Table 1. Note that there is no need for unusual event training data for our approach. For the un- supervised HMM, there is no need for training data.

While some studies focus on the aggregated market price indices, others apply data of rms dual-listed on the A and B, or A and H markets (Chan et al. 2007; Qiao 2007). Most deploy data of daily (Chui and Kwok 1998; Kim and Shin 2000; Qiao et al. 2008) or weekly returns (Chiang et al. 2008; Qiao et al. 2007). Some authors (Chan et al. 2007) apply high frequency intra-day transaction data to circumvent the simultaneity problem.

Thomas and Ruddy were a pair of ambitious ten year olds who lived on the same block in Charlotte, North Carolina. Pining for some spending money, they approached their dads with a scheme: Rent us your lawnmowers so we can start a mowing business. A deal was struck and off they went. By August of that hot summer the boys had a dozen accounts apiece—lawns belonging to almost all of the neighbors they knew, most of the lawns within four square blocks, and certainly all of the lawns two ten-year-old boys could handle....
