Women who are financially, materially or socially dependent on men may have limited power to exercise control in relationships, such as negotiating the use of condoms during sex. Social expectations about how women should behave can place women in subordinate roles and increase their risk of being sexually assaulted, contracting STIs and having unwanted pregnancies, and also limit their access to SRH services.

This article argues that the crisis of 2007–2008 happened because of an explosive combination of agency problems, moral hazard, and “scientism”—the illusion that ostensibly scientific techniques would manage risks and predict rare events in spite of the stark empirical and theoretical realities that suggested otherwise. The authors analyze the varied behaviors, ideas and effects that in combination created a financial meltdown, and discuss the players responsible for the consequences.

Medications can also interact with what we eat or drink, or with our activities. We may never notice many of these interactions. They might not affect how we feel or function. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if it’s safe to drink alcohol when taking your medications. Ask about each drug you take, whether prescription or non-prescription. Many drugs, even over-the-counter drugs and herbal supplements, interact dangerously with alcohol. Even a small amount of beer, wine, or liquor can change how a drug works in your body. Alcohol can get in the way of your medicine doing what it is...

In recent years a number of OECD countries experienced a rapid increase in housing market activity, which coincided with a period of low real and nominal interest rates. The link between the two is intuitive: low interest rates make credit cheaper and increase the demand for housing. Some scholars argue that expansionary monetary policy has been signicantly responsible for this low level of interest rates and the subsequent house price boom (Hume and Sentance (2009) and Taylor (2009)).

Molecular cloning has identified eight metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) subtypes, each with distinct patterns of expression. However, the characteristic roles of these different mGluRs in physiological processes are not well understood. Identification of subtype-specific compounds may potentially act as therapeutic agents for the treatment of a wide range of conditions (including progressive brain disease, epilepsy and cerebral ischemia) all of which are associated with abnormal mGLuR activation.

Removal of lung parenchyma results in reduction of the pulmonary capillary bed. The decrease in pulmonary capillary bed is well tolerated by patients with otherwise normal lungs but in patients with pulmonary dysfunction this may result in postoperative pulmonary hypertension. Unlike most general surgical procedures where cardiovascular complications are the major cause of perioperative morbidity and mortality, in thoracic surgical population respiratory complications are the predominant cause of perioperative morbidity and mortality (9,10). ...

The second part of the book is dedicated to the pathogenesis of myocarditis. The chapters in this part also discuss some clinical findings, but mostly focus on the underlying mechanism of the disease, using in-depth data from mouse models. Some of the chapters focus on host immune response. For example, one chapter reviews the role of pattern-recognition receptors in myocarditis, and another chapter examines the role of lymphocyte effectors in myocarditis pathogenesis.

Medical loss ratio likely to lead to rebates: This year, health insurers must either meet the new minimum loss ratio requirements by spending at least 80 percent of premiums on care and quality improvement or offer customers rebates in 2012. Already, 75 million Americans in plans covered by this rule are benefiting from insurers’ efforts to lower administrative costs and increase the value of their coverage. We estimate, in the small group market, one million enrollees could receive rebates averaging $312 per enrollee.

However, neither side of the controversy has presented convincing empirical evidence for their claims. Private banks point towards the Italian experience to corroborate their case for privatization. Since 1990, Italy has gradually privatized its savings banks by separating the banking business from social and cultural activities, by abandoning the “regional prin- ciple,” and by enforcing a reduction of the government ownership of banks.

As the actual social media tools, blogs, RSS, and social networks evolve over time. (Twitter is more useful when more people use it.) As this occurs it can also be helpful to view the same pyramid idea less from a tool standpoint and more from an objectives standpoint. Until you create a social media strategic plan based on marketing objectives, and find ways to use social media tools to listen and join the conversation going on in your markets, you may find it harder to engage and network and ultimately build relationships and sales through the use of social media tools.

Customer loyalty is of utmost importance to apparel and footwear manufacturers, who would do almost anything to attract new customers while trying to keep existing customers. “In a market that bombards consumers with advertising campaigns and lifestyle and fashion messages, a brand name is a powerful weapon in these efforts” (Wagle). Brand names are becoming increasingly important to consumers as disposable income and the amount of time consumers are able to shop around is slowly diminishing.

EU milk production increased steadily in the 1970s and 1980s due to the price support policy within the Common Market Organisation (CMO) for Milk and Milk Products. By the late 1970s milk production outstripped overall milk consumption and lead to rapidly rising expenditures for the stocking of butter and SMP. In order to limit public expenditure on the sector, to control milk production, and to stabilise milk prices and the agricultural income of milk producers, EU MS agreed to impose milk quotas by the milk marketing year 1984/85.

Turbines represented in Configurations 1 and 3 will yield power dependent directly on process demands, since no condensing section capability exists. Their power production depends on the rise and fall of the steam demand. The addition of condensing capability (Configurations 2, 4 and 5) provides added power- generating flexibility. When a condenser is used, power can be generated independently from the process steam demand (assuming that the steam turbine is sized accordingly).
