Mechanical engineering degrees typically take four to five years to complete, and result in a Bachelor of Engineering (BEng), Bachelor of Science (BSc or BS), or Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering (BME). In the US, most undergraduate mechanical engineering programs are accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET). Mechanical engineering programs include courses on composites, thermodynamics, engine design, fluid dynamics, control theory, robotics, and computer-aided design (CAD). In addition to the core mechanical engineering curriculum, many mechanical engineering programs offer more specialized programs and classes, such as control systems, fuel cell technology, and biomechanics.
Many mechanical engineering companies have begun to incorporate computer-aided engineering (CAE) programs into their existing processes, including 2D and 3D solid modeling computer-aided design (CAD), enabling faster and more exhaustive visualization of products. Other CAE programs commonly used by mechanical engineers include product lifecycle management (PLM), and analysis tools such as finite element analysis (FEA), computational fluid dynamics (CFD), and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM). Further, automation in the form of industrial robots allow businesses to save money on manufacturing costs, and ensure precision quality control. The median annual income of mechanical engineers in the US workforce was $80,580, highest when working for the government ($92,030), and lowest in education ($57,090). Beyond major requirements within the mechanical engineering department, you may consider Trinity Valley College plumber training as an adjunct to your primary course of study.

It may have been rather subtle, but in the wake of the FOCM minutes, the Federal Reserve's monetary policy could now have been nudged on to a different path. This could mean that there is a significant impact on the dollar and the pace of tightening. Last Friday's Non-farm Payrolls report shows that US economic data is still key, we look at the impact that recent key factors are having on the outlook for forex, commodities and equities in the coming days.
Recent FOMC minutes revealed a lot more than normal and the implications could be significant and ongoing. The Fed is now starting to discuss winding down its massive $4.5 trillion balance sheet which "most participants" agree will begin "later this year". According to Fed member Bill Dudley, this could impact on the pace of tightening in 2018. $426bn of Fed held Treasuries that are set to mature in 2018 and whilst the FOMC expects the "reductions need to be gradual and predictable" with a "phasing out of reinvestments", this could have a dovish impact on monetary policy. The Fed will be concerned that scaling back its reinvestment in Treasuries and Mortgage Backed Securities could unduly tighten policy. New York Fed President Dudley, a habitually dovish voting member on the FOMC, said last week that the Fed could pull back on rate hikes next year as it observes the market reaction to its balance sheet reduction. Reaction to rate hikes and forward guidance (dot plots) is fairly predictable, but reaction to the unprecedented reduction of $4.5 trillion of assets purchases accumulated during the multiple rounds of QE is not entirely predictable. Already expectations of hikes in 2018 are being pared to around two, whilst the Fed dot plots are currently at three. The Fed will need to be clear in its message, with opportunities in the June and September FOMC press conferences, Yellen's Congressional testimonies and Jackson Hole in August.

Seek out nationally-accredited nursing programs for the best training. Given a brief hospital internship or prior work experience, you can expect a great return on your education. If you complete finance and billing coursework, for example, there are a variety of healthcare specializations that may appeal to you, such as medical insurance coding, medical insurance billing, or occupational rehabilitation. Check with the insurance billing department for an updated schedule of classes, registration deadlines, and a list of medical insurance coding program requirements. Due to advances in medical systems, there is a growing skill-shortage in medical billing jobs, and of skilled medical assisting professionals in general. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Vermont Tech.
Most healthcare workers have jobs that require less than 4 years of college education, such as health technologists and technicians, medical insurance billing department personnel, health information technicians, and medical insurance coding specialists. The American Hospital Association is the national organization that represents and serves all types of hospitals, health care networks, and their patients and communities. Founded in 1898, the American Hospital Association provides education for health care leaders and is a source of information on health care issues and trends.
The outlook for technical medical careers is especially bright. Opportunities for employment in medical insurance coding and medical insurance billing are expected to increase by 10% to 20% in the next eight years. The increasing number of elderly people is seen as a factor in this growth. As people age they have more medical problems, and hospitals will require more laboratory technicians to perform lab work for them.

- Conclusion
China has long been regarded as the land of the bicycle. This Asian country is now a new Eldorado for the automotive industry. In 2005, China became the third largest producer of cars after the U.S. and Japan, and the fourth largest market in the worldwide vehicle sales. Within a span of a few years, it will emerge as the world champion in auto sales. This progress is mainly due to the considerable potential of the emerging markets that it represents. The population size and rapid growth in purchasing power are two key factors that facilitate the sales. The car has become a symbol of success and high mobility for the emerging Chinese middle class.
This market is characterized by a very strong presence of foreign automakers who are directly integrated into this industry. They are also responsible partly for this explosive growth. In a context where all the big nations are trying to take advantage of market potential in China and set up activities in order to exploit the potential, the automotive industry is a perfect example of a controlled and successful implementation.
One might question the characteristics and outcomes of the market affected by this confrontation. What are the prospects for the Chinese automotive industry?
Thus, we will consider, firstly, the historical background which led the industry to grow so strongly. Then, we will examine the characteristics of this market by taking into account the nature of builders. Finally, we will see the future prospects of the Chinese automotive industry.
Since the implementation of the policy of opening up of the country in 1978, following the reforms of Deng Xiaoping, the Chinese auto industry has grown rapidly. During that time, the automotive sector mainly specialized in manufacturing buses for civil or military and commercial vehicles. The fleet was estimated at 1.36 million motor vehicles. China had completely neglected the production of cars.
Large groups were rooted in Chinese factories and were distributed throughout the territory. The first car manufacturing plant, First Automotive Works (FAW), in Changchun, was located north of Beijing and the second plant, (Dong Feng Motors) in Hubei Province, is located in the center of the country. Big cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou had their own factories. The names of the major automotive groups recall their current home city such as the Beijing Automotive Industry Holding, Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation and Guangzhou Automotive Industry Group.
Thus, the Chinese automotive industry focuses on five main areas: in northern China with the Beijing-Changchun-axis Tianjin, in southern China in the Guangzhou region, around the cities of Wuhan and Chongqing and in the Shanghai region.
Tags: Chinese automotive market,auto industry, emerging markets.
[...] By the early 1980s, foreign carmakers had begun to focus on the Chinese market. They followed the limited approach by an import quota system and highly restrictive and high import taxes. The implementation has proven to be the most favorable option. European groups, including Volkswagen and PSA, were the most active.Americans, and General Motors, arrived later. Initially, the Japanese preferred the approach of the Chinese market through the transfer of technology that was rather obsolete. However, since the early 2000s, they decided to invest massively in the image of Toyota in northern China and Honda in Guangdong province in south-east China. [...]
[...] The Chinese government obviously wants to design cars that China in which can fully occupy a significant market share in the years to come. A group of Chinese professionals came forward to compete with the foreign brands: the Qirui (Chery), occupied a very aggressive position in this segment of entry-level cars. The QQ, flagship brand Chery The reasons for this popularity abroad The Chinese market is a strategic market for all major manufacturers worldwide. It is currently limited to 380 million Chinese who benefit directly from growth, but this figure remains higher than any other world market. [...]
[...] Changing migration patterns within large cities and urban development plan of the poorest regions. II) General market characteristics Production and sales In 2005, overall sales totaled 5.70 million vehicles, including 161,600 imported vehicles, an increase in the overall figures by 14% over 2004. The fleet of motor vehicles rose from 1.36 million in 1978 to over 24.21 million in 2004. These figures show that the rise of the automobile industry has been very rapid. Comparative Tables for production and sales from 1999 to 2005 : vehicles vehicles Source: China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM) There was an increase from 10 to 15% per annum which should continue until the end of this decade but it is difficult to comment on the longer term.

COEUR d'ALENE - Federal mine safety regulators say a Nov. 17 accident at Lucky Friday Mine that killed a miner occurred because management failed to provide proper personal protective equipment.
The federal Mine Safety and Health Administration on Thursday released its report from the investigation of 26-year-old miner Brandon L. Gray's death. Gray worked for Cementation USA Inc., which was contracted by Hecla Mining Co. to do work on a shaft inside the Mullan-area silver mine.
Mike Nadon, president of Cementation USA, said, "We saw a lot of errors in the report."
He said they are working on a response.
Gray was injured when he and a coworker were working on top of a pile of broken rock - called muck - and the pile gave way beneath them. As it gave way, they became engulfed in the material.
They were underground in the mine to help excavate a bin for broken rock storage.
The coworker, Jason Figueroa, was partially buried but was freed, treated at a hospital, and then released the same day.
Gray was completely engulfed in the material. He was freed and hospitalized, but died Nov. 19.
"The accident occurred due to management's failure to ensure miners were provided with the proper personal protective equipment when required to remove blocked material in the bin," MSHA's report concluded. Nadon said the material was not blocked or plugged.
The report said the two men were standing on plugged material wearing harnesses attached to what are called "self-retracting lifelines."
The lifelines used were designed for an unobstructed fall path, the report said.
When the material suddenly gave way and flowed underneath them and the miners fell, their fall wasn't rapid enough to cause the self-retracting lifelines to lock before the men became engulfed, the report said.
"Additionally, the miners didn't receive the proper training to safely perform the task of removing the blocked material from the bin," the report said. They also lacked training for working in confined spaces, it said.
Gray's cause of death was attributed to suffocation and mechanical compression.
A Nov. 18 press release by Hecla said both men were "believed to be wearing all required personal protection equipment, including fall protection."
Amy Louviere, a spokeswoman for MSHA, said penalties haven't yet been assessed.
Jim Sabala, a senior vice president for Hecla, said the company is reviewing the report and would take any safety recommendations under advisement.
As for the self-retracting lifelines used by Gray and Figueroa, the manufacturer's user-instruction manual contains a section entitled, "Locking Speed," which stated, "Situations which don't allow for an unobstructed fall path should be avoided."
Locking of the device would be affected if users are working on "slowly shifting materials, such as sand or grain," the manual said, according to MSHA's report.
The manual said working in confined or cramped spaces might not allow sufficient speed for locking.
Nadon said the lifelines used that day by Gray and Figueroa were appropriate for "normal situations."
He said the muck the two miners were working on turned out to have some "unusual characteristics."
Nadon criticized MSHA for taking months to complete the investigation and file a report.
"It struggled to find blame," Nadon said.
Gray had three years and five months of mining experience.

Residents and road users along Ikotun-Egbeda Road, have cried out to Governor Babatunde Fashola of Lagos State, to ensure speedy completion of the ongoing road rehabilitation project, as people plying the road daily go through harrowing time, as a result of the project.
The call became necessary following Tuesday's downpour in the area, which left motorists stranded for hours in traffic.
Some residents who spoke to Vanguard, accused the contractor handling the project of careless attitude to the work, as the job was being dragged on unnecessary.
Mr. Emmanuel Andrew, a regular user of the road, while narrating his plight, said the unnecessary man-hours loss to traffic was unquantifiable.
He appealed for quick intervention from the state government because the rainfall has started.
The road has also been taken over by road hawkers, who have seized the opportunity to sell their wares to tired passers-by.
The Bus Rapid Transit, BRT, scheme along the area is said to be suffering as the turn around operation had been drastically reduced.
Motorists blame the chaotic traffic situation on some residents, who have put all the streets under lock and key thereby preventing drivers from gaining access to alternative routes.
They also urged the state government to deploy men of the Lagos State Transport Management Authority, LASTMA, to the area to assist in the management of traffic because lawless drivers, especially commercial drivers, were taking advantage of the situation to be unruly.
However, when Vanguard contacted the Special Adviser to Governor Fashola on Works and Infrastructure, Engr Ganiyu Johnson, he urged the residents to be patience and cooperate with the contractor.
According to him, every thing is being done to ensure completion of work within the six months duration.
Johnson noted that for any development to take place, there must be time for endurance and sacrifice, saying the road project is for the good of the residents and general public.

Neil Gaiman: Let children read the books they love
Well well. So Neil Gaiman says: Let children read the books they love. Stop the press. Who would have thought an author publicly would get caught saying such outrageous things? Jokes aside - what is remarkable is that this is considered remarkable enough to be printed in a newspaper. Then he defends libraries (good but… Continue reading Neil Gaiman: Let children read the books they love

DA - 4 & DA - 8 : Distribution amplifier Aerial Multicoupler.
There are many applications in both civil and military installations where many receivers are in use concurrently, such as monitoring stations and in telecommunication shops. Usually, installing one antenna
per receiver is impossible, hence so called distribution amplifiers are needed. The DA 4 makes it possible to connect up to 4 receivers to one antenna without signal loss. Each receiver can be operated if it was connected to its own antenna. This is also an ideal solution for DX camps. For elecommunications shops the DA - 4 is of great advantage as receivers can be compared by receiving the same station, on the same moment with the same antenna, without switching over. The DA - 4 is in use at governmental- and military monitoring stations as well in AWACS aircraft.
The DA - 8 is equal to the DA - 4, but has 8 outputs instead of 4.

Neema was a Trill and the daughter of Audrid Dax.
When she was six, she was hospitalized after contracting Rugalan fever. For the next two weeks, her mother did not leave her side and read all seventeen volumes of Down the River Light to her, even though Neema couldn't hear her. The child pulled through. Years later, at age 21, she stopped talking to her mother and would not speak to her again for about eight years. (DS9: "Nor the Battle to the Strong")
The short story "Sins of the Mother" gives her full name as Neema Cyl.

Have Real Estate Law Questions? Ask a Real Estate Lawyer.
Hello and welcome! My name is ***** ***** I am a licensed attorney who will try my very best to help with your situation or get you to someone who can. There may be a slight delay in my responses as I research statutes or ordinances and type out an answer or reply, but rest assured, I am working on your question.
Is daughter on the lease for the lot?
Are you saying she owns the trailer, not you?
No, she is not on the lease, and yes she owns it
Ok, then legally she has no contractual right to be on the property, even if she owns the home. Only the legal tenant listed on the lease has rights to be on the property as a licensee.. What that means is that since she is a guest of yours, the landlord can bar her from the property because she has no contractual rights to be there.
With that said, the only way to ensure that she isn't banned is for her to stop bringing over her laundry and giving the appearance that she is doing it there, even if she isn't.
Otherwise once the landlord bans her, if she comes back, he can have her arrested for trespassing and things get a lot tougher from then on..
I am very sorry that I don't have better news, but please understand that I do have an ethical and professional obligation to provide customers with legally correct answers based on my knowledge and experience, even when I know the answer doesn't make the customer happy...

Quirky Ideas to Lose Weight
The concept of losing weight is one that is bewildering and a potential landmine question for the guys out there.
It is not uncommon to hear from female companions about weight loss strategies or the latest fads or diets. What makes the subject interesting is in the mentality of people who continuously seek the easier or more convenient way than religiously following the exercise & diet mantra. Exercise & diet are well established and supported scientifically and yet there is always energy devoted to find a more "efficient" solution.
One recent health fad is juicing.
What is juicing?
Juicing is exactly what you expect. Simply juice from an assortment of fruits and vegetables of your choice. Celebrities like Gwyneth Paltrow have endorsed juicing and that has taken off with avid fans embracing their juicers fervently.
5 benefits of juicing?
1. Quick fix of daily vitamins and minerals from vegetables and fruits.
2. Cajoling method for kids or adults who are resistant to the idea of chowing down whole fruits & vegetables.
3. Tailor made concoctions according to one's preference.
4. Good way of using leftover vegetables into one's diet
5. A way of hydrating oneself
Fanatics beware
While this liquid diet allows the intake of nutrients, it is easy to over-consume the amount of sugar in a serving cup with 4-5 different fruits and vegetables. This is so because juicers eliminate the fibrous part of the fruits/vegetables to give you a pleasant and smooth finish. Fibre in our diet is essential for helping to regulate blood glucose and enables one to feel satiated after consumption. In other words, we wouldn't finish 4 apples in one go, but we wouldn't have a problem downing a cup of apple juice from 4 apples.
Another unforeseen issue with juicing could be dental problems. The sugar content can prove too much to chew on and without proper dental hygiene practices, decay would be eminent. In short, more mouth care needs to be exercised if you are embarking on a liquid diet.
Juicing maybe worth experimenting as a supplement or enable kids to get their vitamins dose but isn't a viable meal replacement. Liquid diets tend to be absorbed into the body faster and there is a tendency to be hungry sooner. As with all things, it is better to moderate one's diet striking a balance.

Quiet and dry conditions will continue through sunset on Friday. Temperatures should average above normal. Friday night on... The dry conditions will continue Friday evening. Attention then turns to the weekend system. Starting late Friday night some model solutions are breaking out very light precipitation in the strong moisture return into the area. Given how dry the atmosphere is initially, most of this moisture should go into cloud production. However, one cannot fully rule out some sprinkles or very isolated light rain showers developing. The model consensus has most of the area dry late Friday night but does have some spotty slight chance pops. Saturday into Sunday is where questions on timing occur with the storm system. The large scale picture is very supportive of rain occurring over the weekend when the front moves through the area. Internally, the models are showing the better forcing to be along and behind the front with very weak forcing ahead of the front. Interestingly, the GFS and CMC have sped up the front with with the bulk of the rain occurring Saturday/Saturday night. The ECMWF looks a bit faster but still has the bulk of the rain occurring Saturday night into Sunday. As a result of these differences, the model consensus has chance to likely pops Saturday, likely to categorical pops Saturday night, and chance pops mainly along and east of the Mississippi on Sunday. Sunday night dry conditions will be seen across the area as high pressure moves through the Midwest. Monday into Tuesday, fast west northwest flow aloft will allow at least two upper air disturbances to move through the area. Moisture availability is in question. However, atmospheric profiles indicate layers of air aloft becoming unstable during daytime heating. Thus the potential is there for diurnally driven rain showers to develop. The model consensus has slight chance to chance pops Monday/Monday night with slight chance pops on Tuesday. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Wednesday Afternoon) ISSUED AT 1221 PM CDT Tue Oct 17 2017 VFR conditions will be seen through 00z/19 with high pressure over the Ohio Valley and a storm system in the Plains.

Call for Doctoral Consortium Submissions
SIGIR is the major international forum for the presentation of new research results and for the demonstration of new systems and techniques in the broad field of information retrieval (IR). The ACM SIGIR 2014 Doctoral Consortium will provide doctoral students with a unique opportunity to have substantive interaction with other researchers regarding their proposed dissertation research.
The objectives of the Doctoral Consortium are:
- To provide a forum where doctoral students can present and discuss their research with experienced IR researchers: the members of the Doctoral Consortium Program Committee.
- To provide students with an opportunity to establish a supportive community, including other doctoral students at a similar stage of their dissertation research.
The Consortium will take place the day before the tutorials (Sunday 6th July 2014), with the format including: student presentations with plenary discussions, individual meetings with experienced researchers, and highly interactive networking sessions over lunch and breaks with a special emphasis on gaining insights regarding career paths after the PhD.
Prospective attendees should have written, or be close to completing, a thesis proposal (or equivalent). It is desirable that the student is not so close to completion that the event would have little impact on their work. Before submitting, students should discuss this criterion with their advisor or supervisor.
Over the years, the number of submissions to the Consortium has grown steadily; as a result, the Consortium has become increasingly selective. Candidates for the Consortium will be selected based on the potential of their research for future impact on the field of information retrieval and the likely benefit to the student of participation in the Consortium. Priority will be given to students whose research goes beyond locally available expertise at their home institution.
This selection will be based in part on a written paper, solely authored by the student. For each selected student, a one page extended abstract of the paper will be published in the SIGIR 2014 Conference Proceedings. Extended abstracts will be invited after selection, and should not be submitted with the proposal.
Doctoral students who submit to the Consortium are permitted to have previously published on their research, and are encouraged to submit full or short papers to SIGIR 2014 and associated workshops.
SIGIR 2014 may be able to provide travel grants for students chosen to attend the Consortium. Application details for travel grants will be available on the SIGIR web site.
Submission Guidelines
The submitted paper will be the basis for detailed discussions at the Consortium.
To get the most out of the discussion, it should include:
- Motivation for the proposed research.
- Background and related work (including key references).
- Description of proposed research, including main research questions.
- Research methodology and proposed experiments (where appropriate).
- Specific research issues for discussion at the Doctoral Consortium.
In addition, a one page appendix to the paper (placed after the references) should include the following:
- A detailed statement by the student explaining why they want to participate in the SIGIR 2014 Doctoral Consortium at this point in their doctoral studies, and how they hope it will contribute to the development of the development of their work and potential future career.
- A statement by their advisor / supervisor saying how the student would benefit by attending the Consortium and explaining what particular expertise areas essential to the student's studies are not available locally at the student's home institution.
Advisors should also specifically state whether the student has written, or is close to completing, a thesis proposal (or equivalent), and when they expect the student would defend their dissertation if they progress at a typical rate.
Format Requirements
- Submissions must be written in English and submitted in the ACM Conference style (for LaTeX, use the Option 2 style). The paper should be no more than 5 pages in length including all figures and references, but not including the one page appendix. The first page must contain the title of the paper, full author name, affiliation and contact details, an abstract of up to 250 words, ACM Computing Reviews categories, and up to 3 keywords describing the topic areas. Information about categories and keywords can be found in ACM Web pages on the computing classification system and in the LaTeX and Word templates.
- Doctoral Consortium papers will not be published in the SIGIR Conference Proceedings; only one-page extended abstract invited from selected students will be published.
- Doctoral Consortium submissions must be in PDF format and submitted via https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sigir2014dc. It is the responsibility of the student to ensure that their submissions use no unusual format features and are printable on a standard printer. Submissions will be reviewed by the members of the Doctoral Consortium Program Committee.
All Phd Students accepted will receive a complementary registration to one full day or two half day tutorials. Travel funding may also be available for students through the main conference as described above.

To George Washington from Major General Stirling, 24 July 1777
From Major General Stirling
Peaks Kill [N.Y.] July 24: 1777.
Dear Sir
Your Excellency's letter of 22d I received yesterday Afternoon, and Instantly put my Division in readyness to March at a moments Warning. The Intelligence given by —— Atwood which Genl Putnam tells me he sent to you on Tuesday Evening,1 Corroborates the Account your Excellency had received of the Enemy's fleet haveing fallen down from the Narrows towards the Hook; and I have but little doubt in my own Mind that they are gone to Sea; however General Putnam is of opinion that it is not so Certain as to Justify my Marching to Join you, untill we have more Certain Intelligence or further Orders from your Excellency. I therefore now am impatiently waiting for one or other of those Events in one of the most Melancholy dirty holes I ever saw. a party of Ninety odd men part of Major Mentges Command Came in here yesterday & brought with them five Men as Tory prisoners on Examination I found one of them (Daniel Curvin) to be a Spy,2 he Confessed that he belonged to Colonel Byards Regiment, that the Colonel sent him last Thursday to Veiw the Scituation & Motions of our Army, that he Came and remained in the Neighbourhood of the Army 'till Sunday and observing our Motions on that day,3 he pushed off to give Intelligence to Colo. Byard, but was Catched on his way near the Closter,4 this being fully Coroborated by a Number of Circumstances, there Could be no doubt of it, and therefore I ordered him to be Instantly hanged which I hope will deter others from comeing on the like Arand.
If we march to the Southard my Route will be shortned by takeing the Road from Kakiyat to Paramis, then to the great falls, then to Watsessing, then to Springfeild, & then either to Brunswick or Bound Brook, the road is better & the whole line of March will be eased by our being in a Separate Column, Our Baggage can meet us at Paramis Church about 10 Miles from Suferins. I am your Excellency's Most Obt Humble Servt
Not a Word from the Eastward.
ALS, DLC:GW. The addressed and docketed cover of this letter also contains the following note: "Ramapou Friday Morng 25th July 1777. Forwarded by his Excellency's Most Obedt humble Servt Robt. Hamilton."
2. The execution of Daniel Curvin (Curwen) is similarly described in a letter from Jedediah Huntington to Joshua Huntington, written at Fredericksburg, N.Y., on 24–26 July 1777: "Several Spies have been taken up At Peeks Kill, one of them confessed he was sent out from N York by Col Robertson [Beverly Robinson] to make Discoveries of our Condition & Carry him Intelligence, Lord Sterling ordered him imediately hung up before his Door. others are in Confinement for Tryal" (Conn. Hist. Soc. Col. description begins Collections of the Connecticut Historical Society. 31 vols. Hartford, 1860–1967. description ends , 20:355). Curvin's execution elicited outrage from Israel Putnam (see Putnam to GW, 26 July).
3. The previous Sunday was 20 July 1777.
4. Closter is at the western foot of the Palisades in northeastern New Jersey.
