Risks for Public Health Goes Up With Cuts in Social Welfare Spending
Even minimal reduction in social welfare spending could lead to risks for public health, according to a recent study conducted by researchers.
An overview of spending in 15 European countries over a quarter of a century found that a cut of the equivalent of 100 dollars per person in social welfare budgets boosted alcohol-related deaths by 2.8 percent and cardiac-related fatalities by 1.2 percent.
"Social welfare" was defined as a panoply of expenditures, including health care, housing support, unemployment benefit, disability allowances, family support and help for job seekers.
The paper, published by the British Medical Journal (BMJ), evaluated Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) data on spending and mortality in the 15 pre-enlargement EU countries from 1980-2005.
Every 100-dollar per-capita increase in social welfare led to a 1.19-percent fall in mortality from all causes, the authors found.
However, reducing spending on non-welfare sources, such as military and prisons, did not have a negative effect on public health.
The study, led by University of Oxford public health specialist David Stuckler, said public health was not just a narrow question of spending on healthcare itself.
"Children who receive a better education, have safe environments in which to play, and who live in good quality housing are more likely to grow up healthy than those who do not," it said.
"Adults in secure and safe employment, receiving wages above the level needed merely to survive, are less likely to adopt hazardous lifestyles (such as smoking, drinking or unhealthy diets) and can expect to live longer."

Do hydrogen atoms have inner and outer electron shells? I saw a diagram somewhere that showed a carbon atom with an inner and outer shell, is this proven? Are these shells magnetic or something else? Do you consider the outside of these shells as the diameter of the atom?
Hydrogen only has one electron, so it makes no sense to talk about shells. As for other atoms, different electrons occupy different states (atomic orbitals), which can be classified according to shells. Only the outermost electrons, called valence electrons, are relevant in most cases (spectroscopy, chemistry, etc.) Usually, the word shell is applied to all electrons who share the same principle quantum number ##n##. Because of quantum mechanics, the actual shape of an atom is "fuzzy". For an isolated atom, you could use something like the sphere within which there is a 90% probability of finding all electrons. For atoms bound into molecules and solids, equilibrium bond distance can be used as a starting point.
What keeps the atoms from intermingling electrons. If hydrogen atoms were pressurized in a vessel, what would keep them from mixing together? What is the official border of a H atom? What is the average diameter of an H atom?
They are intermingled, in the sense that the electrons are not on neat orbits, but occupy diffuse orbitals. For instance, there is a non-zero probability of finding even a valence (outer) electron at the nucleus. But the rules of quantum mechanics (the Pauli exclusion principle, to be precise) make it such that two electrons in teh same atom cannot be in the same state, and therefore the more electrons an atoms has, the greater the number of states (orbitals) needed, and these increase in energy, such that electrons are found on average farther and farther away from the nucleus. At one point, two atoms will start exchanging their electrons and you will form a molecule There is no "official" border, the calculation always has a part of arbitrary in it. In the Bohr model of the atom, with is semi-classical (meaning not fully quantum mechanical), the electron orbits at a radius of ##0.52 \times 10^{-10}\ \mathrm{m}##, so that gives you an idea of the size of an atom.
I completely agree with everything DrClaude said. I'd just like to somewhat rephrase this, because it might come off wrong: It is perfectly possible to calculate (very accurately) the average electron density distribution in an atom, or any statistical moments of it. For example, one can evaluate the expectation values <|r|^n>, where r is the operator of electron distance from the nucleus. The arbitrariness now only comes from assigning atomic borders based on that. For example, one could define something like √(<r^2>) or <|r|> as the distance (both being equally valid), or the distance r where there is less than 10% (or 1% or 0.1%...) of finding an electron at radii > r. Technically every electron of every atom has non-zero expectation values of being anywhere in space, and where you want to consider this probability as ``small enough'' is more or less up to you. The situation is even more complicated when it comes to talking about atoms in molecules, because technically the atoms lose their identity in molecules andcannot be strictly separated (but that's not the entire truth, either, because often they, in fact, can).

Apogee Software, LLC is a video game publisher based in Garland, Texas, established in 2008 as a spin-off of 3D Realms.[1][2]
The original Apogee Software was established in 1987 as Apogee Software Ltd. In 1994, Apogee established its 3D Realms brand for publishing 3D video games distributed by the company. By 1996, with 3D video games dominating the industry, the Apogee name was dropped and all games by the company were published under the 3D Realms brand, although the company's legal name remains Apogee Software, Ltd.[3]
In July 2008, 3D Realms announced they would revive the Apogee Games brand to develop and publish new games, as well as help distribute older Apogee titles.[1] The Apogee name, logo and library were licensed to a new company, Apogee Software, LLC. George Broussard and Scott Miller, both of 3D Realms, assisted in the formation of the new company, but have no role in any of its management decisions.[2] The new Apogee soon signed a deal with Deep Silver to co-publish a trio of Duke Nukem games for the Nintendo DS and PlayStation Portable called Duke Nukem Trilogy.[4] The company also sells several Apogee and 3D Realms titles through the digital distribution platform GOG.com[5] and its own online store.[6]
Icarus Studios announced in early 2010 that it will partner with Apogee Software, LLC to develop a new action comedy game entitled Sam Suede in Undercover Exposure.[7][8]

Subway failed to deliver the order because they claimed they had no driver. I was no informed until I called about the status of the order, while my party was underway. If I had relied heavily on the subway order, my party of 35 quests might have been a disaster. I will NEVER order from Subway again. EzRewards should not due further business with this vendor.

Running a cleanout company will take hard work but can be profitable. In this business, you will remove furniture, appliances, debris and junk from homes, apartments, basements and garages. Often, your clients will expect you to dispose of the trash but allow you to keep whatever you believe is valuable as long as you remove it from the property. This means you can make money by not only providing cleanout services, but also selling valuables that were left behind.
Obtain a business license to start your cleanout business. You can obtain an application from your county clerk's office or the department of licenses and inspections in your area.
Decide what you will do with the items you remove from homes and businesses. If you will attempt to resell some of the items you haul away, you will need space in which to store the items until they are sold.
Related Reading: How to Start an Employee-Owned Company
Choose a location from which to run your business. If you will have only one truck, you may run this business from home. If you will hire employees to assist with cleanouts or even send employees out on cleanout jobs of their own, you may prefer to rent office space instead.
Purchase or lease a truck for hauling away items. You may start with just one truck and then add additional trucks as you expand your business. If you purchase a vehicle, have your business name and phone number painted on the side of the truck. If you lease a truck, purchase a magnetic sign to attach to the side instead.
Contract with a refuse company to handle large amounts of trash from your cleanouts. You may also contract with a recycling company to dispose of items that have to be recycled. In addition, contact charitable organizations that have a need for items you won't sell but don't consider trash.
Find a company through which you can rent a large dumpster when needed. You will likely need a company that will provide a trash bin on short notice.
Buy the equipment you will need to operate your cleanout business. You will need contractor trash bags, shovels and rakes for cleaning out homes and businesses. You will also need gloves to protect your hands as you carry furniture, appliances and other items.
Market your business by placing ads in newspapers and telephone directories. Build and market a website that explains the cleanout services you provide, and include your website address on all of your marketing materials. Contact banks and mortgage lenders who may be interested in hiring you to clean out foreclosure properties. Network with funeral directors who may refer clients to you, and advertise in church newspapers as well.
Decide where you will sell items you do not throw in the trash or give to charity. For example, you may sell items through online auctions, flea markets, consignment shops and antique stores.
- Keep your startup costs low by purchasing a used truck. As your business grows, you may reinvest in it by buying additional trucks.
- Make your business more attractive to potential customers by offering complementary services. For example, you may offer cleaning, painting and landscaping services along with your cleanouts.

Pointing to Pakistan's energy deficit, its President Asif Ali Zardari has urged the Chinese leadership to continue supplying civilian nuclear technology to Pakistan, despite growing international concern over China's nuclear engagement with the country.
In talks on Thursday, Mr. Zardari also urged China to accelerate plans to introduce a railway line between the two countries, after a spate of problems have plagued the Karakoram Highway, which runs from China's Xinjiang region to Pakistan and is the only strategically-significant land link between the two countries.
In meetings with President Hu Jintao on Wednesday and Premier Wen Jiabao on Thursday, Mr. Zardari said his country needed Chinese assistance in developing "an energy mix" which included nuclear power reactors, as well as hydropower, wind and solar energy, the official Associated Press of Pakistan reported. On Thursday, Mr. Zardari also discussed long-pending plans for China and Pakistan to establish railway connectivity between Xinjiang and Havelian. The two countries have long discussed plans for a rail link in light of persisting problems that currently limit connectivity through the Karakoram Highway. The plan has, however, made little progress since 2004, when a pre-feasibility study was conducted.
Indian officials have expressed concern over the proposed line, parts of which are likely to pass through Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir.
Minister of State for Defence M.M. Pallam Raju said this week that it was a matter of concern, but India was "taking our own counter-measures".
Mr. Zardari's spokesperson Farhatullah Babar said in a briefing on Thursday, open only to Chinese and Pakistan reporters, that Mr. Zardari had called on China to accelerate plans for the rail link, but did not say if the two countries had come to any agreement. He said the two countries had also discussed their $500-million plan to upgrade the Karakoram Highway and make it more resistant to adverse weather conditions.
The strategically-significant link is open for only six months every year, between May and October. As a result of landslides and flooding, the highway has not opened this year. While a 425-km section on the Chinese side of the border has been made an all-weather highway, China is assisting Pakistan to upgrade a 335-km stretch between Khunjerab and Raikot. The project is expected to finish in 2012.

Kelvin probe study of laterally inhomogeneous dielectric charging and charge diffusion in RF MEMS capacitive switches
Herfst, R.W. and Steeneken, P.G. and Schmitz, J. and Mank, A.J.G. and Gils, M. van (2008) Kelvin probe study of laterally inhomogeneous dielectric charging and charge diffusion in RF MEMS capacitive switches. In: IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium, IRPS , April 27 - May 1 2008, Phoenix, AZ (pp. pp. 492-495).
472kB |
Abstract: | In this paper we use scanning Kelvin probe microscopy (SKPM) to detect charge in the dielectric of RF MEMS capacitive switches. We observe a laterally inhomogeneous distribution. Laterally inhomogeneous dielectric charging leads to a narrowing of the C-V curve [1], and can lead to stiction of the membrane. The measurements show that trapped charges slowly diffuse, which reduces the inhomogeneity and shows that charge is vertically confined. From these measurements we estimate the lateral diffusion coefficient of trapped charges. |

Tami is reading real estate listings and oohing and ahhing over a "turn of the century" with original floors. She winces, "Needs a little work." Coach wonders "turn of what century?" while Tami continues rattling off all the things they need to do before moving -- hiring a broker, putting the house on the market, finding a new job for her. Julie walks in behind her and they clam up, but not before Julie overhears them and launches straight into Teen Red Alert mode -- shrilly declaring that she is not going, she is NOT going, she isn't going. Coach tells her she can't tell anyone, especially not Matt, and she storms off. Tami calls after her that she needs to try on a dress "for the father-daughter dance" and barely thirty seconds in, I'm out of my seat pacing in anticipation of the perfection.
Austin. Quad rugby. Yawn. Jason wheels around real fast, tosses a ball around, slams into various surfaces, et cetera. Horrifying guitar licks in the background indicate that this whole thing is Kool. Tattoo Girl is watching the game from the sidelines, because, well, because I have no idea why someone would go watch quad rugby tryouts. Although I guess I don't have too many athletic friends, so my comparison is, like, going to watch my friend at a job talk or something. One of the coaches tells Jason he's playing well. Jason laps up the praise like he's a Schnauzer on Puppy Bowl.
Cut to an empty gym where a line of coaches sits at a table. Jason wheels in front of them, and though he gets lots of positive feedback, he's told that he didn't make the team and won't be going to Beijing. Hallelujah! I never thought I'd say this -- well I never thought I'd say this without a hangover -- but thank god we're leaving Austin.
Uninspiring credits. Whoops, we haven't left Austin yet. Oh well, I guess another Shiner won't kill me. Jason, Herc, and company are hanging out. Tattoo Girl seems kind of drunk as she tells Jason she's sorry he didn't make the team. Herc rolls over, all set for some "Wooo!"-ing, but Jason is being a downer. Herc calls him "depressing guy" and I feel kind of silly for having spent so many hours typing so many words about Jason the past few episodes when, really, "Depressing Guy" would have done just fine. Herc patronizes Jason a bit, telling him that the coach loves him. Jason gets bitchy and tells Herc that everyone knows Jason was the best athlete on the court, but that he didn't get picked because the other guys make up, basically, a Quad Rugby In-Crowd. Herc comes back at Jason, telling him that he has a "truly spectacular ego." Tattoo Girl reminds us of her presence as she tells Herc to lay off. Herc continues, saying that Jason may have the most raw talent, but he didn't make the team because he isn't comfortable in a chair.

Almost three-quarters of the Chesapeake Bay's tidal waters are considered impaired by chemical contaminants. These contaminants include pesticides, pharmaceuticals, metals and more, and can harm the health of both humans and wildlife. From the insecticides that are put on farm fields to the cleaners we use to disinfect our homes, contaminants can enter the Bay and its tributaries in several different ways. While production bans have lowered the presence of some contaminants in the watershed, others are still widely used today.
Two kinds of chemical contaminants can be found in the Chesapeake Bay: metals and organics.
The most common metal found in the watershed is mercury. A 2010 report from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) found the extent and severity of mercury contamination to be widespread in the watershed. Contamination with metals like aluminum, chromium or iron, on the other hand, is more often localized.
Common organic chemical contaminants include PCBs, PAHs and pesticides:
Pharmaceuticals and personal care products are an emerging concern in the region. These contaminants can appear in our landfills and our wastewater, and have been linked to behavior changes and reproductive disruptions in fish and other species.
There are four general sources that push chemical contaminants into the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries:
Some of the most common chemical contaminants in the Chesapeake Bay watershed can persist in the environment for a long time. These contaminants bind to sediment or build up in the tissues of fish and other organisms, moving through the food web in a process called bioaccumulation. During bioaccumulation:
Because the consumption of contaminated fish and shellfish can cause health problems in humans, cities and states issue fish consumption advisories in areas where chemical contaminants are a concern. The District of Columbia, for instance, has issued advisories for all of its water bodies, asking the public not to consume bottom-feeding fish like catfish, carp or eels.
Different chemical contaminants can affect the survival, growth and reproduction of fish and wildlife in different ways. Exposure to PAHs, for instance, has been linked to the development of liver tumors in brown bullhead catfish; exposure to pesticides has been linked to eggshell thinning in wild birds; and several studies have shown that PCB concentrations in bald eagle eggs can contribute to their failure to hatch.
Almost three-quarters of the Chesapeake Bay's tidal waters are considered impaired by chemical contaminants. But the EPA has identified three "regions of concern" that show significant problems:
For Chesapeake Bay restoration to be a success, we all must do our part. Our everyday actions can have a big impact on the Bay. By making simple changes in our lives, each one of us can take part in restoring the Bay and its rivers for future generations to enjoy.
To lower chemical contaminants in the Bay watershed, consider using non-toxic pesticides or chemical-free cleaning and personal-care products. You can also follow safe and legal disposal methods for paint, motor oil and other household chemicals, and keep pharmaceuticals out of our waterways by returning unused medicine to a consumer drug return location or fouling it with coffee grounds or cat litter before putting it in the trash.
Plastic containers and other trash that gets washed into the Bay doesn't actually disappear
The Anacostia River defies expectations with its surprising array of wildlife and recreation opportunities.
Educators use honeybees to connect students with the natural world.
Research indicates hormone-disrupting chemicals are more widespread in the region than once thought.
A University of Richmond professor has pushed for expanded clean-up efforts.
Based on the list of impaired and threatened waters that states submitted to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in 2012, 74 percent of the 92 tidal segments analyzed in the Chesapeake Bay were partially or fully impaired by chemical contaminants.
Fish biologist Vicki Blazer with the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) brings her team to the Shenandoah River in Front Royal, Va., to collect and study smallmouth bass, a species in which intersex characteristics have been linked to chemical contaminants in the Chesapeake Bay region.
Intersex conditions occur when exposure to chemicals disrupts the hormonal systems of an animal, leading to the presence of both male and female characteristics in an animal that should exhibit the characteristics of just one sex in its lifetime. In the case of smallmouth bass, male intersex fish are found with immature eggs in their testes, which indicates exposure to estrogenic and anti-androgenic chemicals.
"The sources of estrogenic chemicals are most likely complex mixtures from both agricultural sources, such as animal wastes, pesticides and herbicides, and human sources from waste water treatment plant effluent and other sewage discharges," says Blazer, who first discovered intersex characteristics in fish while studying fish kills in the South Branch of the Potomac River and the Shenandoah River.

If you've been wanting to remodel your kitchen or bathroom for several years, now is a great time to get it done. With superior remodeling workmanship, great value can be added to your home that will more than compensate for the costs you incur. Even if you just want new cabinets, new appliances, a new sink, or a new floor, you can enjoy the benefits for many years, and if you decide to sell your home in the future, it will make it much more attractive to potential buyers.
Replacing your worn-out linoleum or carpet with hardwood flooring has dozens of advantages—it is durable, easy to maintain, environmentally friendly, and keeps your family healthy. While it may have a bigger up-front price tag than other types of flooring, the return on investment for hardwood flooring can be huge, especially if you plan on selling your home in the near future.
Some of the easiest home remodeling projects to do include new siding, roofing, and windows. These improvements will make your home look a lot better from the outside, and it will improve your home's ability to resist the elements of Mother Nature. If a recent hailstorm has battered your roof or siding, Vision Design Build Remodel can replace it with new siding and roofing that will last for many, many years. We can also install new, more energy-efficient windows to keep warm air inside in the winter and cool air inside in the summer, reducing your dependence on your HVAC system and increasing your family's comfort.
During a remodeling scenario we look at the project from a holistic standpoint. We want to make sure we are taking all the home's systems into account. Can we decrease HVAC by added insulation and air sealing? Is the new HVAC going to cause unwanted mold growth due to a leaky house? If you call us for windows, can we provide better wall performance instead of just fixing one hole in the problem? The window is usually the smallest part of the wall system. We provide digital infrared imaging to show you your problem areas and that we fixed them. We can even test your house before and after, using a blower door to show you how well we have sealed.
Thinking of remodeling your home? Contact us today.

UPDATE: Stifel Nicolaus Initiates VCA Antech at Hold on Market Share Concerns
Stifel Nicolaus initiated coverage on VCA Antech (NASDAQ: WOOF) with a Hold rating.
Stifel Nicolaus noted, "Valuation is tempting - VCA is trading slightly below its 3 and 5-year NTM P/E averages – but we initiate with a Hold rating due to our belief that VCA's issues extend beyond that of just the economy. Notably we highlight: (1) VCA share losses in the hospital market; (2) why long-term challenges at the reference lab will likely persist; and 3) a sum of the parts analysis which yields a $21-23 stock, largely in-line with the current stock price."
VCA Antech closed at $19.72 on Wednesday.

A removable UNITED STATES PATENTS light, switch and battery package is mounted in the base of the glass for shining light into the fiber bundle. 3,609,343 9/1971 Hewlett ..240/l0 L 5 Claims, 4 Drawing Figures OPTICAL DISPLAY BACKGROUND OF INVENTION A variety of light display devices have been prepared heretofore for use in enhancing the appearance of SUMMARY OF INVENTION My new optical display supports a bundle of optical fibers in a confined mass, for instance, in a hollow stem and holds one end ofthe bundle in a spread-out fan-like array. This display has substantial advantages over prior fiber optic displays because the spread out fibers are physically confined where they cannot be broken as the display is handled and where they cannot change shape as the fibers in the display age. The optical display is made with a body having inner and outer surfaces with the spread-out end of the fiber bundle sup ported and confined between these surfaces. The .device preferably employs a double wall struc ture with an interior chamber in which the spread-out end of the fiber bundle is confined. The chamber is curved so that an optical fiber extending through the interior chamber contacts both walls at different points along its length to positively confine it. My new fiber optic display is particularly useful for providing a light display in eating utensils, and the preferred form of my invention is-illustrated herein in the form of a champagne glass, though it will be appreciated that the invention can be used in a variety of other forms. The optical display of this invention includes provision for illuminating the fiber bundle so that the free end of the fibers sparkle in the well-known manner. Preferably the illumination is provided in the form of a compact electrical assembly of battery, light bulb and switch removably mounted in the .base of the glass where it can be removed when the glass is cleaned. Color wheels can be used if desired, and different colored light may be provided by filters or light emitting diodes. Provision can be made for the light towink by perature lower than the melting point of the fibers. In. this latter regard, it will be understood that the optical fibers are made in the conventional way as drawn'cores of glass or plastic coated with a cladding of a different glass or plastic which has a different index of refraction so that the exterior surface of the core is highly reflective. Where the fibers are molded into the body of a sin gle walled wine glass, only the core of the fiber need be used since the remainder of the glass may form the cladding. Other features and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the following description read in conjunction with the attached, drawings, which disclose the preferred form of the invention made in' the form of a champagne glass. In the drawing, FIG. 1 is a perspective view, partially broken away, of a champagne glass constructed in accordance with the principles of the invention; FIG. 2 is a vertical sectional view of the glass of FIG. FIG. 3 is a horizontal sectional view of the glass of FIG. 1, and FIG. 4 is a bottom view of the glass of FIG. 1. Referring now in detail to the drawing, and particu-- larly to FIG. 1, the glass illustrated therein has a body of blown glass with a stem 10 and a double walled bowl 12 having an. inner wall 14and an outer wall 16 with inner and outer surfaces 18 and 20, respectively. The inner and outer walls 14 and 16 define a bowl shaped chamber 22 communicating with a hollow interior of stem 10, and a flared base 24 is formed on the bottom of the stern- 10. This blown glass structure maybe formed in a way known to glass blowers where the inner and outer'walls' .14 and 16 are first blown as a generally spherical glass bubble and then the inner wall 14 is pulled into the vertically from the bundle 26 first contacts the innerwall 14 so that the fiber is deflected outwardly and it then contacts the outer wall 16 so that itis deflected back vertically. The individual fiber engages the inner and outer walls at spaced apart locations so that it is confined in place in the chamber 22. For instance, fiber 28 is held in place by engagement with the outer wall -16 at points 30 and 32 with intermediate engagement with the inner wall at point 34 in FIG. 2. The lower end of fiber bundle 26 is bonded to the glass ofstem 10 by a body of epoxy cement 36. Inside the base 24 of the glass is a preformed me'tal ,cover 38 which supports an electrical circuit assembly 40 on three ears 42. The cover 38 functions to obscure .1 direct view of the electrical circuit assembly 40, and it bly bonded to the wall of the hollow stem to hold the bundle in place and to prevent water entry into the double wall chamber when the glass is washed. Alternatively, the glass may be formed by placing the fibers in a suitable mold and filling the mold with a thermoplastic or therniosetting plastic or glass at a temis held into the base of the glass by resilient engagement with a curved lip around the mouth of base 24 formed by fire polishing the edge of the glass. The electrical circuit assembly 40 includes an incandescent lamp 44 in a socket 46 which is connected to a battery 48 through a switch 50 by means of wiring elements. 52. While one specific embodiment of the invention has been illustrated and described in-detail herein, it is obvious that many modifications thereof may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. ' I claim: 1. An eating utensil comprising: a body having a base cavity and inner and outer portions at least one of which is translucent; a bundle of optical fibers having a collected end and a spread-out end with said bundle mounted in said body with the collected end thereof communicating with said cavity for illumination from said cavity and with the spread-out end thereof confined between the inner and outer portions of said body; and illuminating means in said cavity for illuminating the collected end of said bundle. 2. A drinking glass having a bottom cavity, a stem portion and a translucent bowl portion with said bowl portion having inwardly and outwardly facing surfaces; a bundle of optical fibers extending through said stem portion and communicating with said bottom cavity' for illumination therein and having a spread-out portion in, said bowl portion confined between the inner and outer surfaces thereof; and illuminating means in said cavity for illuminating the collected end of said bundle. v of said bundle is confined in said chamber by said dou- 4 v 3.
