Title: The 10 Best Single-Engine Fighter Jets - Aero Corner Headings: The 10 Best Single-Engine Fighter Jets The 10 Best Single-Engine Fighter Jets Table of Contents 1. Lockheed P-80 Shooting Star The first American combat-ready fighter jet that came out victorious in the first all-jet battle in the world. 2. Lockheed F-104 Starfighter The supersonic interceptor aircraft that set numerous world records in terms of speed and altitude. 3. Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21 The witness of history and the evolution of time. 4. General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon The first fighter aircraft custom-built to pull nine times the force of gravity. 5. Dassault Mirage 2000 A single-engine fourth-generation fighter and a proven jet with modern capabilities. 6. Saab JAS 39 Gripen An exceptional air defense platform for Sweden and its European customers. 7. Chengdu J-10 A jet fighter that represents a significant milestone for the industry of China. 8. HAL Tejas A revolutionary fighter for India’s air defense preparation for the battlefield. 9. CAC/PAC JF-17 Thunder The hallmark of the defense production of Pakistan and accounted as a successful light combat aircraft. 10. Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II The most lethal, survivable, and connected fighter jet ever built. About the Author Content: Throughout the Second World War, the majority of fighter planes were all-metal monoplanes geared with batteries of cannons and machine guns and few could reach 400 mph speeds. A large number of fighters up to this time had a single-engine, but several fighters were already fitted with twin-engines. In comparison to twin engines, single-engine fighters had lower weight and therefore had better thrust-to-weight ratio thus better maneuverability. For years, one of the key developmental requirements of the U.S. Navy was for fighter jets to have two engines. The main reason for this is redundancy in case of engine failure over the ocean. The F-35 has made an end to that long standing requirement for a variety of reasons. This is a list of the best single-engine fighter jets ordered according to its age. 1. Lockheed P-80 Shooting Star USAF US Air Force Lockheed P 80 Shooting Star The first American combat-ready fighter jet that came out victorious in the first all-jet battle in the world. The P-80 Shooting Star is undeniably the most successful first-generation fighter jet in the world.

Mikoyan MiG-17 About the Author Content: In addition, it is compatible with AESA radar. The MiG-35 is a twin engine fighter jet, being powered by two FADEC RD-33MK engines. Due to its recency, it has not seen combat or been exported for use by other countries, though Egypt has shown interest in the past. 11. Mikoyan MiG-17 Cory W. Watts Mikoyan Gurevich MiG 17 Let’s close our look at Russian fighter jets with a real blast from the past. First introduced in 1952, it saw an extensive operational history in the Soviet, Chinese and, perhaps most notably, Vietnamese Air Forces. The Vietnam War saw some of the MiG-17s most famous combat usage, with it being flown by North Vietnamese forces against the United States Air Force in engagements throughout the war. Though the United States Air Force employed fighters that were far more recent and advanced, the North Vietnamese were still able to achieve some success with their MiG-17s. Chinese pilots were also able to use them effectively.

What Does “Heavy” Mean in Aviation & Why Do Pilots Have To Say It? Table of Contents What Does “Heavy” Mean? The Importance of Aircraft Call Signs Airliner Radio Calls Airplane Weight Categories The Dangers of Wake Turbulence Minimum Separation Distances by Air Traffic Control The Real Purpose of “Heavy” and “Super” Call Signs About the Author Content: These spirals trail behind the airplane and sink. For the generating aircraft, they are a nuisance only in the induced drag that they represent. For a smaller aircraft flying behind and below the generating aircraft, they pose an enormous and invisible hazard. Wake turbulence is the result of any flying machine making lift. Helicopters make dangerous wake turbulence too. When hovering, the wake turbulence surrounds the helo. When in forward flight, the wake turbulence trails behind the helicopter just like it does an airplane. It should be noted that wake turbulence is not the result of the airplane’s powerplant. Jets produce a powerful jet blast that is very hazardous to nearby aircraft on the ground. Even at low power, jet blast can topple light training aircraft.

Jets produce a powerful jet blast that is very hazardous to nearby aircraft on the ground. Even at low power, jet blast can topple light training aircraft. The prop wash from propeller-driven airplanes can also cause damage. But this turbulence is short-lived and remains close to the aircraft, generally much closer than anyone would ever operate to another plane in flight. The hazard for the following aircraft lies in the spiral vortex of the wake turbulence. If a plane unknowingly enters the vortex, it will induce a much stronger roll than the airplane’s flight controls can correct. A smaller plane that enters the wake turbulence of a larger aircraft is likely to wind up flying upside down!

Title: Headings: Aircraft Inertial Navigation System/Inertial Reference System Aircraft Inertial Navigation System/Inertial Reference System Content: The GPS is extremely accurate in itself. When combined with IRS, it creates one of the most accurate navigation systems available. The GPS is used to initialize the IRS so the pilot no longer needs to do so. GPS also feeds data into the IRS computer to be used for error correction. Occasional service interruptions and altitude inaccuracies of the GPS system pose no problem for IRS/GPS. The IRS functions continuously and is completely self contained within the IRS unit. Should the GPS falter, the IRS portion of the system continues without it. The latest electronic technology has reduced the size and weight of INS/IRS avionics units significantly. Figure 2 shows a modern micro-IRS unit that measures approximately 6-inches on each side.

First flight of a SLAM-ER, which has a range of 278km (150nm), onboard an F-15E took place in February 2004. In 2010, the Republic of Korea Air Force also plans to procure AGM-158 joint air-to-surface stand-off missiles (JASSM). Cockpit While F-15A/C aircraft are single-crew aircraft, F-15B/D/E have a crew of two. The F-15E Strike Eagle is crewed by the pilot and the weapon systems officer (WSO). The WSO is equipped with two Sperry full-color and two Kaiser single-color cathode ray tubes. The WSO can access information from the radar, electronic warfare or infrared sensors, and monitor aircraft or weapons status and possible threats. The WSO also selects targets and navigates with the aid of a moving map display, produced by an AlliedSignal remote film strip reader. The pilot’s crew station features one full-colour and two single-colour cathode ray tubes.

It definitely was a challenge to learn, and I don’t think anyone’s going to be crushing it right off the bat. The basic skills come pretty quickly, in two or three flights. The most challenging part is how much information the jet presents to you and focusing on the right things at the right time. Over time, you kind of find the best way to process the information. I can’t think of another experience I’ve had that’s quite like that. I’m sure some people brought some skills from video games that might have helped them out, but probably not too much. I played some video games growing up, and I don’t find comparability between playing video games and flying the F-35. My training class was the first to have the opportunity to go straight to the F-35. I hope that we can live up to the expectation and add to the corporate knowledge around the jet.

Title: How does voluntary trade promote economic progress?, find out the answer here | AirTract Headings: How does voluntary trade promote economic progress? How does voluntary trade promote economic progress? Follow 2 Answers Date Sorting All Last 7 Days Last 6 Months Last Year Last Month Date Between Jasmin Khan Poonam Choudhry The world economy is managed by voluntary trade, or in other words, depending on the ability of both the producers and consumers to take a free decision on how to buy and sell goods. This system is designed to empower both buyers as well as sellers, which turned out to be beneficial for nations having weaker economies Voluntary trade supports economic progress in the following ways: Supports in making individuals (Producers and Consumers) self-sufficient. Discourages the concept of doing trade based on comparative advantages. Encourages all businesses to ask for lower possible costs per-unit by accepting the methods of mass production. Supports in making movements of goods, services, and resources from those who value them much more than individuals who value them real less. For making a voluntary exchange or to conduct trade, every participant of a transaction that includes both individuals and organizations expects to enjoy some benefits by making the exchange of one item with others in respect of value. The term used as voluntary trade is majorly used for defining the major foundation of this present economic system. Whenever there is some act of exchange going on for products or goods in place of other services, the whole concept will be stated as trading. So in short, voluntary trade defines the market where either the buyers or the sellers will get the right to buy or sell something based on their respective preferences or can also have the right to refuse it if they want to accept the offer. So above is the brief description of how does voluntary trade promote economic progress.

EducatPro $19 Content: So with the help of voluntary trade, you are getting the freedom of choosing between the compensation of being forced into the labor. Most of the mainstream economics have now shown that the voluntary exchanges are much conducive for economic efficiency when it comes to the transfers by the government. No particular theoretical basis will entirely or partially argue about the voluntary exchange which people would prefer when it comes to any arrangement like government mandates. If the government is forcing the people to sell the services or products, then it can lead to several economic issues and moreover, people always opt for services where the business is having the liberty of choosing the time when they can buy or sell any product. With the voluntary trade, the deal will occur when parties from both sides in the transaction ensures that both of them will be benefited from this exchange. That is why it is said to be the key that will lead to a healthy economy. Voluntary trade will encourage specialization and will lead to efficient production with higher profits. In a market where everyone is dealing with buying and selling, you can also take the free marketing economy where the government will not control how the businesses are purchasing their products or trading. So all the decisions will be made by the seller or buyer, and hence it will improve the economic system. So the system of the free market is usually maintained by the voluntary trade because it will enable the seller and buyer to have power.

Product Q&A: U-Tip Hair Extensions What is Double Drawn Hair? What is Remy Premium Hair? How Should I Care for U-Tip Hair Extensions? How are U-Tip Hair Extensions Shipped to Me? Content: The quality of the hair, installation, and maintenance are some of the things that greatly influence the lifespan of glue extensions. But let’s say you bought high-quality Remy hair, got it properly installed, and take great care of it, then you can expect the U-tip hair extensions s to last at least five months. Semi-Permanent glue hair extensions fall into the category of semi-permanent extensions. What that means is while the strands last for a very long time, they need to be refitted regularly. That means you can’t take the strands off every day and must commit to wearing them for at least a couple of weeks. As your natural hair strands grow, the U-tip strands grow along with it which means they must be moved higher up on the roots to stay invisible. Very Secure What’s great about glue extensions is once they’re glued on, there is no chance of them coming off. When the u-tip is attached to a strand, it is very secure and will stay in place for a long time. The only way that the u-tip hair extensions get detached is if heat is applied to them, they’re incorrectly washed, or the installation was not professionally done. Perfect for Thick Hair Wefts can sometimes look too bulky and unnatural on very thick hair and that’s why glue extensions are a much better choice.

Title: 5 Ways to Build Unity Headings: 5 Ways to Build Unity 5 Ways to Build Unity Helping others is a pillar of Judaism. Every human being is worthy of profound respect. 1. Look for ways to help. 2. Give the benefit of the doubt. 3. Focus on the positive. Make genuine eye contact that communicates, “You are important.” 4. Respect elders. 5. Share wisdom. Content: There was a time when society accorded honor to the elderly. Today, when one's worth seems to be based on an ability to master the latest technology, the "older generation" simply cannot compete. Judaism teaches that every old person has a special wisdom that comes with life experience. Humans are made up of two parts, physical and spiritual. As a person ages, the body weakens, thus enabling the spiritual side to exert itself to a greater degree. The Talmud delineates age 80 as peak spiritual strength – the prime of life! Thus the Torah specifically instructs us to "honor the elderly" (Leviticus 19:32). On public buses in Israel, for example, the first row of seats is marked with a sign quoting this verse. We even give honor even to one who no longer possesses full mental faculties. The tablets of the Ten Commandments, which Moses shattered, were kept alongside the new tablets in the Ark of the Covenant.

This article describes CKD-related disparities linked to a variety of clinical, socioeconomic, and cultural factors, as well as to select social determinants of health that are defined by social positioning and often by race within the United States. Our advancing understanding of these issues has led to improvements in patient outcomes and is narrowing the gap in disparities across most aspects of CKD and CKD risk factors. There are also extensive data indicating similar improvements in quality measures for patients on dialysis therapy. This article also reviews the state of CKD in African Americans from a population perspective and provides recommendations for the way forward.

Title: Why Do Dogs Tilt Their Heads? – American Kennel Club Headings: Why Do Dogs Tilt Their Heads? Why Do Dogs Tilt Their Heads? Head Tilting and Hearing Dog Head Tilting and Vision Positively Reinforcing Head Tilting More Research Is Needed Content: His pilot study showed that dogs with more pronounced muzzles, such as Greyhounds, exhibited head-tilting behavior toward their owners more often than those with flatter faces, for example, Pugs. So, head shape and muzzle size may influence head tilting. However, more than one-half of the flat-faced dogs head tilted, so there may be more going on than simple snout issues. Goldman thinks Coren’s research is a great start, but points out that there could be more factors involved than just snout length. In the primate research, the visual acuity of the animal at certain ages seems to be related to head tilting. So, Goldman thinks looking at head tilting over a dog’s lifetime could be informative. “ Are we seeing more in puppies when their eyes are not fully developed? Or maybe when dogs become geriatric, and their vision (and hearing) starts declining, we see a re-emergence.” Positively Reinforcing Head Tilting Goldman believes that we can influence head tilting by how we interact with our dogs. “ I think it might happen more often in certain dogs than others because it’s reinforced.

I don’t think most people say, ‘Do you want to go to the vet?’” The cookie, walk, or car ride that comes next is rewarding for the dog. And because dogs repeat behaviors that are rewarded, our positive reaction can increase the frequency of head tilting. Even if you love your dog’s head tilting enough to train him to do it on cue, there are still times when a head tilt is a cause for concern rather than cookies. Goldman warns, “If you see a persistent head tilt, and it seems not to be related to anything, go straight to your veterinarian.” Persistent or continuous head tilting can be related to many different and potentially serious health concerns, such as an ear infection or a vestibular issue.

What is a Confidence Interval? Image Source: Wikimedia Commons There is always some uncertainty associated with sample statistic being used to make the estimate of the population parameter. Uncertainties may be due to random sampling error. What is a confidence interval? A confidence interval is used to describe these uncertainties. A confidence level places a lower and an upper bound within which the population parameter will lie within the given confidence level. Example 1 The 95% confidence interval for the average weight of adults of 20-25 years of age in a country is (55 kg, 65 kg).

Conclusion Start making smarter decisions Content: How to Calculate Confidence Intervals How to Calculate Confidence Intervals Survey Tips May 11, 2018 What is a Confidence Interval? Confidence intervals are an essential part of inferential statistics, upon which most market research is based. Put simply, in statistics, a confidence interval is a type of interval estimate that is computed from the data that has been observed from a sample. In other words, a confidence interval is a range of values that researchers can be fairly certain their true value of interest lies in. As we’ve previously discussed, the purpose of taking a random sample from a population of interest and computing a statistic, such as the mean, from the sample data, is to determine an approximate estimate of the mean of the greater population. However, researchers must always be weary of how well the sample statistic actually estimates the underlying population value. Confidence intervals address this concern, as they provide a range of values which is likely to contain the population parameter of interest. What is a Confidence Level? All confidence intervals are constructed at a confidence level — for instance, 95 percent. The confidence level is selected by the researchers conducting the statistical analysis.

Title: The Dangers of Mixing Alcohol and Antibiotics - Alcohol Rehab Guide Headings: Alcohol and Antibiotics Alcohol and Antibiotics Mixing Alcohol and Antibiotics What Are Antibiotics? The Effects of Mixing Alcohol and Antibiotics Get help for alcoholism The Dangers of Mixing Alcohol and Antibiotics Avoid Alcohol While Taking Antibiotics Get help for alcoholism today. Content: The short answer is no – alcohol directly inhibits the effectiveness of antibiotics and can additionally cause a wide range of negative side effects. When the body breaks down alcohol, it produces acetaldehyde, which can cause nausea. Many people taking antibiotics already experience stomach or digestive side effects, and drinking alcohol while on these medications can increase feelings of nausea. In addition to gastrointestinal issues, both alcohol and antibiotics can hinder cognitive function, concentration, and coordination. Another thing to consider with alcohol and antibiotics is the fact that drinking interferes with the essential processes of the body like sleep and hydration, and these are critical components of recovering from a bacterial illness. Due to these factors, it’s best to stay away from alcohol for the duration of antibiotic treatment. What Are Antibiotics? Antibiotics, also known as antibacterial agents, are powerful medications that destroy or slow down the growth of bacteria. Antibiotics do not fight against infections caused by viruses such as colds or the flu, but instead bacterial diseases. Antibiotics work by either killing invading bacteria or stopping the antibodies from reproducing.

Beef Eye of the Round Roast Recipe Ingredients Instructions Content: Rub the 3 T olive oil over the roast, then rub on the salt and pepper. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. CRUST OPTION 1: Place the eye of round roast on a grill heated to very high heat. Grill the roast for about 5-7 minutes per side, until lightly browned on the outside (don’t worry, it’ll brown more in the oven). Be careful not to grill too long, however, or it will cook too much on the part of the roast near to the surface. Remove from heat and place in an oiled cast iron pan or baking sheet in the preheated oven. Optional: add chopped potatoes, Brussel sprouts, and onions to pan for a full meal. Cook for about 10 minutes per pound (a 6 pound roast would cook for around an hour) or until a thermometer inserted in the center reads about 127 for rare, 130-135 for medium rare, and 140 for well done. Remove from the oven and rest, covered, for 15 minutes before serving.

However, by the fall of 1862, events had changed in favor of accepting black soldiers. Declining Union enlistments, heavy battle losses and the realization that the war would take more time and resources than expected, confronted President Abraham Lincoln and the Union Army. Continued pressure by abolitionists and awareness of the potential of black labor as the Confederacy had already discovered, also contributed to lifting the Army's prohibition of "Negroes or Mulattoes," in existence since 1820. The formal Emancipation Proclamation, issued on January, 1863, freed all slaves in rebellious states with the exception of those in areas already under Union control. The Proclamation also declared that freed slaves would be officially received into the armed forces. Lincoln's decision gave a higher meaning to a war initially focused on preservation of the Union - abolition. " A double purpose induced me and most others to enlist, to assist in abolishing slavery and to save the country from ruin, " wrote Medal of Honor winner Sgt. Major Christian Fleetwood of the 4th U.S.C.T. Frederick Douglass and other leaders saw black military service as an opportunity to win a Union victory and to gain equality and rights as citizens.

They were angry about the almost 20 percent increase in the price of diesel since the start of the year, as well as the planned fuel tax hike President Emmanuel Macron had recently announced. While Macron said the tax was necessary to “protect the environment” and “combat climate change”, protesters claimed the decision was yet another sign that the “arrogant” and “privileged” president is out of touch with regular folk struggling to make ends meet. The intensity of the protests quickly forced the government to make a U-turn and first suspend and later permanently shelve its plans for fuel tax increases. However, the protest movement was not only about fuel prices. It encompassed wider anger and frustration against the political establishment in general and President Macron in particular. As a result, the government’s decision to abandon fuel tax hikes failed to calm tensions.

It all comes down to Macron’s apparent failure to connect with the people, understand their concerns and steer France away from destructive neoliberal policies.

Misleading the electorate 40-year-old Macron was elected last year on pledges to change the face of French politics, create more jobs and improve lives. On the eve of the 2017 presidential election, French voters were tired of career politicians. They wanted a different kind of leader, someone who can understand their long-rooted social and economic concerns and deliver real, practical solutions. For the past four decades, French people have been worried about the erosion of social protections in their country. Since Francois Mitterrand’s socialist government controversially decided to impose austerity policies in 1983, successive governments have taken slow but consistent steps to dismantle the French welfare state.

They came to believe that the political elite protects the interests of the wealthy and does not care about the wellbeing of ordinary citizens. Successfully diagnosing the public’s frustration with the political class, Macron worked hard to differentiate himself from the establishment in Paris and act as the representative of a “new world order” throughout his election campaign. He had the youth, the energy, the positive message. He was the leader of a brand-new political party, aligned neither with the right nor the left.

And I felt a real solidarity.” ‘Hardcore element’ Saturday’s protests – which demonstrators dubbed “Act 53” of their weekly gatherings – marked the first serious clashes for months in central Paris between security forces and demonstrators. Al Jazeera’s Neave Barker, reporting from Paris, said those gathering in the capital were the “fringe … hardcore element” within the yellow vest movement. “This isn’t anything like the huge protests that we saw earlier on in the year when many tens of thousands of people took to the streets of Paris and other cities like Bordeaux and Toulouse,” Barker said. “So what’s the reason for the dwindling? To some extent, it has achieved one of its key aims getting the tax on diesel revoked, and [Macron] also coughed up $11m in financial support to low-income earners,” he added. “The movement attracted a whole range of people from the far right, from the far left, and pretty much everyone in between, and because of that somewhat confused political identity, the [movement ] failed to [transform into] … a political movement.” Macron’s reform agenda The yellow vest movement was one of the toughest challenges to Macron’s presidency before it dwindled in the early summer.

It evolved from nationwide road blockades into a series of often-violent demonstrations that pitted rowdy protesters with police and ravaged Paris and other major cities in the country. The rallies forced Macron to make policy concessions and delay the next big wave of reforms, including overhauling the pension and unemployment systems. Macron’s plans to simplify the unwieldy and expensive pension system, which he says will make it fairer, is particularly unpopular. Trade unions have called on railway workers, Paris public transport staff, truck drivers and civil servants to strike against the pensions overhaul on December 5, and in some cases beyond. Students and yellow vest protesters have called for people to join forces with the unions.

Television footage showed plumes of smoke and some people throwing stones at police as thousands pressed against barricades, waving flags and sticks [Danish Siddiqui/Reuters] Thousands of farmers have entered the capital New Delhi for a planned protest against new farm laws hours after the police fired several rounds of tear gas and used water cannon to stop the Dilli Chalo (Go to Delhi) march. Protesting Indian farmers scuffled with police earlier on Friday during the march to the capital, against new laws, which will make it easier for farmers to sell their produce directly to private buyers and enter into a contract with private companies. But farmers demand the bills, passed by India’s parliament in September, be scrapped fearing the laws will leave them vulnerable to big corporates. A Delhi Police spokesperson confirmed to Al Jazeera the farmers have been given permission to enter the national capital and hold a peaceful protest at the Nirankari Samagam Ground in the Burari area. “The farmers have been granted permission to enter Delhi. They can protest peacefully in a ground in Burari area” Anil Mittal, Additional PRO (Delhi Police), told Al Jazeera. A police officer fires tear gas to stop farmers from entering the national capital [Danish Siddiqui/Reuters] However, farmers from several states and trade unions, who wanted to stage protest in the Ramlila ground in the heart of the city, have yet to comment if they would agree to the new venue.

Sukhdev Singh, another farm leader, said the new venue – Nirankari Samagam Ground – where they have been given permission to hold their protest, is not acceptable to them as it is too far from the city centre. “All the major rallies in New Delhi happen either in Ramlila Maidan or at Jantar Mantar. Why can’t the government allow the farmers to hold their protest at these two venues [instead of telling] us to go to the city outskirts,” Singh told Al Jazeera over phone. “We will not hold our protest rally in the Nirankari Samagam Ground at any cost.” Flames emerge from tear gas released by the police to stop farmers from entering New Delhi [Danish Siddiqui/Reuters] Thousand of farmers who have been travelling by tractors, buses and on foot from the northern state of Punjab towards New Delhi are still on their way. A small group of farmers have reached the national capital and gathered at the Nirankari Samagam Ground, where a large contingent of police force is already present. Gurnam Singh, a farmer from Punjab, told Al Jazeera at the Nirankari Samagam Ground that they are “very unhappy” with the venue. “

Suburban train services into New Delhi were suspended, Delhi Metro said in a post on Twitter, in a bid to stop the protesters from riding the trains. Senior journalist P Sainath slammed the government’s decision to use security forces against farmers.

Farmers protest against the newly passed farm bills at Singhu border near Delhi [Danish Siddiqui/Reuters] Under the laws that Modi has called “a watershed for agriculture”, farmers are free to sell their produce anywhere, including to big corporate buyers, instead of at government-regulated wholesale markets where farmers are assured of a Minimum Support Price (MSP) – the price at which the government buys farm produce. The laws also allow farmers to enter into a contract with private companies in a step the government hopes will bring private sector investments in the sector that has struggled for years. BREAK- Tear gas shells fired at farmers at the Delhi-Haryana Singhu border. I’ve seen atleast 8 rounds of tear gas shells being fired.

They also say they fear the government will eventually withdraw price support (MSP) for wheat and rice. The government says there is no plan to eliminate the wholesale markets.

Share This Page With Them Content: With respect to the time perspective dimension, increasingly closed systems can be conceived as being organized in a relatively future-oriented or past-oriented direction rather than in terms of a more balanced orientation of past, present, and future. With regard to the content of dogmatism, while the specific content of both central and peripheral parts may vary from one particular ideological system to another, it is possible to specify that in general the formal content of the central part of the system, to the extent it is closed, has to do with absolute beliefs in and about positive and negative authority, either external or internal, and related beliefs representing attempts on the part of such authority to perpetuate itself. Furthermore, the central part can be conceived to provide a framework for the organization of other beliefs representing patterns of rejection and qualified acceptance of people in general according to their patterns of agreement and disagreement with the belief-disbelief system. DOGMATISM DISTINGUISHED FROM RIGIDITY Before going on to elaborate further on our conceptual definition of dogmatism, it may be illuminating first to distinguish the construct of dogmatism in a general way from that of rigidity. Both dogmatism and rigidity refer to forms of resistance to change, but dogmatism is conceived to represent a relatively more intellectualized and abstract form than rigidity. Whereas dogmatism refers to total cognitive organizations of ideas and beliefs into relatively closed ideological systems, rigidity, when genotypically conceived, refers solely to the degree of isolation between regions (7, 12) or to a "property of a functional boundary which prevents communication between neighboring regions" (6, p. 157); when phenotypically conceived, rigidity is denned in terms of the way a person or animal attacks, solves, or learns specific tasks and problems (11). Thus, dogmatism is seen as a higher order and more complexly organized form of resistance to change. While dogmatism may well be hypothesized to lead to rigidity in solving specific problems, the converse is not necessarily the case. Rats, the feebleminded, and the brain-injured, for example, can be characterized as rigid (also compulsive, fixated, perseverative, inflexible) but hardly as dogmatic.

Title: Benefits of Being Financially Stable | Children's Bureau Headings: Benefits of Being Financially Stable Blog Benefits of Being Financially Stable Mental Health Stress and Overall Health Stability in the Family Becoming Financially Stable Sources Content: While chronic stress of any kind contributes to a myriad of long-lasting physical health issues, anxiety about money in particular has its own set of disadvantages. According to Elizabeth Scott, MS, an author wellness coach who specializes in stress management and quality of life, references the following as the primary issues resulting from financial stress: As mentioned above, those who are experiencing financial stress are more likely to engage in unhealthy coping behaviors. These can include drinking, smoking, overeating, or other unhealthy mechanisms in response to their anxiety. Unfortunately, this leads to more stress, which is associated with even more health risks. Less money for self-care. Those who are struggling to make ends meet are far less likely to choose to pay for “extra” things like chiropractic care or preventative measures, or even basic healthcare or dentalcare, when meeting basic necessities is a priority. Unfortunately, when small health issues go unchecked, they can turn into larger problems – in turn leading to more stress in the long run. Less sleep. When individuals are under financial stress, they often experience trouble sleeping (or working long hours) which can add up to a sleep deficit over time.

Unhealthy emotions: Financial strain, and especially debt, can cause unhealthy emotions that can take a tremendous toll on your health. There is often anxiety, frustration, and a sense of hopelessness that comes along with increasing debt and the inability to even pay the accruing interest. This only causes additional stress and poor mental health and well-being overall.

Parental Education as Protective Factor School as a Protective Factor What you can do – TODAY! Sources: Content: For parents, financial uncertainty is their major stressor when trying to meet their family’s basic needs. According to the “Stress in America” survey conducted by the American Psychological Association (2017), the proportion of adults who reported that stress impacts their physical and mental health and overall well-being is significantly growing. Unfortunately, poverty status and stress are two markedly consistent factors among perpetrators of child abuse, and they are intrinsically intertwined. While there are multiple causes of child maltreatment (such as mental illness, intimate partner violence, substance abuse, poor parenting skills, unmanaged anger, lack of coping strategies, or other individual issues), the correlation between poverty and stress, abuse, and neglect cannot be ignored. Children that experience these traumatic events (also known as adverse childhood experiences) are more likely to develop a variety of health problems, behavioral issues, or even substance abuse disorders down the road. The negative effects of adverse childhood experiences will only lead to further problems as the child develops from teen to adulthood. Multiple studies have found environmental complexities and material deprivations to be causes of serious physical abuse. For example, low income, uneducated caregivers, single parent households, an incarcerated parent, teen pregnancy, unemployment, and living in the midst of community violence are macro-level socioeconomic factors that undoubtedly lead to stress in the family. Additionally, inadequate bonding between the child and their caregivers, intimate partner violence in the home, a physical or mental disability (either the parent or the child), and other health problems (such as being born prematurely), are micro-level issues that place parents under tremendous mental stress, which may translate into abusive behavior. Younger children are more vulnerable to abuse as well, as 46.5% of child abuse fatality victims were younger than one year old, and 34.5% were between the ages of one and three (“Child Welfare Information Gateway,” n.d.).

Training & progression Training in the fashion world is all about gaining hands-on experience whilst on the job. To begin with, you may work under the supervision and guidance of an experienced professional. Some established designers take on a select number of interns or assistants who work with their mentors for a period of two or more years, before branching out on their own. Large and established clothing companies may provide more structured training programmes, including rotations across different design functions and training sessions that teach people how to use specialist design software. Career progression for self-employed fashion designers is mainly dependent on their experience, talent and portfolio, while progression for salaried fashion designers is based on the size of the company, organisational hierarchy, location and the individual’s experience and performance.

There are many different kinds of abusers, and it’s not clear why people molest children. What’s been found in recent research is an overwhelming majority of people guilty of child molesting, were molested themselves. We used to think this statistic was much smaller, but with more detailed research, we’ve discovered this statistic to be very high. Statistics involving men in New Jersey prisons convicted of sexual abuse, found that over 95% of the men, were in fact abused themselves. And we don’t know, but it could be that the 5% of non-abused men in that case don’t remember being abused as children; they may have amnesia or a traumatic dissociation .. Some abuse may be the attempt to relive one’s own abuse, with power roles reversed. Another reason may be these people have learned that abuse is a way of feeling in control. Fundamentally, in all cases of abuse, it certainly is about power and control. Some abusers don’t relate well to people of their own age group.

ANSWER: Job loss depression occurs when someone loses their employment. It can have long-lasting effects on the individual, sometimes lasting as long as two years. Job loss depression is not solely caused by the single event of losing one's job. The loss of employment can trigger a series of events, called a "cascade of negative life events." For example, the loss of employment almost always means financial stress will follow. The financial difficulties may hinder one from being able to make their car payment.

For example, the loss of employment almost always means financial stress will follow. The financial difficulties may hinder one from being able to make their car payment. The car may be repossessed - a negative life event. Without transportation, finding new employment becomes very difficult - another negative life event. The longer one is unemployed the more financial difficulties one may experience. In addition, one may have lost healthcare benefits. This in turn, makes caring for others with health problems extremely difficult, thus putting more strain on their relationships.

Using the above example, you can see how job loss depression can escalate throughout the period of the person's unemployment. In addition to the financial and relational strain that job loss causes, individuals usually suffer from feelings of insecurity, inferiority, and suffer from low self-esteem. They also may suffer from feelings of uncertainty about their current and future job stability. These feelings, associated with job loss depression, can last up to two years even if they have become gainfully employed. In addition to the emotional impact of job loss depression, studies have proven job loss depression can also influence a person's physical health as well.

Since anyone can lose their employment at any given time, anyone could be susceptible to job loss depression. Since it is not so much the initial act of losing one's job that causes the depression, but rather the crisis that job loss causes (or the "cascade of negative life events") you can prepare yourself for these situations by planning ahead. This preparation could encompass both financial planning for the future and mental health techniques that encourage you to find your value and self-worth outside the job market. This can be accomplished by knowing and remembering how much God loves you and how much value He places on you. Finding your value and self-worth through God's eyes, seeing yourself as God sees you, is a lasting, immutable way of finding and keeping a positive self-image.

What do you think? Content: All too often you revert to discussing “religion” as opposed to Christianity. The title of your section The Clash of Science and Religion provides just one example. In contrast, I will make clear the distinction between Christianity and other faiths you so freely subsume under the rubric “religion.” Christian orthodox belief, as construed for centuries in the tradition of the Protestant Reformation, makes some distinct claims about the nature and attributes of God that should be subject to scientific scrutiny. Francis Collins, head of the Human Genome Project believes that, “If God exists, then He must be outside the natural world and therefore the tools of science are not the right ones to learn about him.” 66 In contradistinction to Dr. Collins, I would suggest that while the essence of God Himself exists outside the physical universe, Christian claims about God can be addressed scientifically. Yet these claims will never be addressed scientifically given the current adversarial climate that exists between scientists and theologians. Your solution is to put an end to all religions. Since so many religions have proven themselves detrimental to society, you assume that none of them has any merit. Yet I would challenge you to put that assumption to the test.

Content: Without the theory of evolution, the Humanist would have to rely on God as the explanation for life, which would necessarily destroy his atheism. Therefore, every Secular Humanist embraces the theory of evolution. The Humanist Manifesto I states, “Humanism believes that man is a part of nature and that he has emerged as the result of a continuous process.” 2 This belief is echoed in the Humanist Manifesto II, which claims that “science affirms that the human species is an emergence from natural evolutionary forces.” 3 And in Humanist Manifesto 2000 Kurtz says, “The theory of evolution and the standards of ecology should also be studied.” 4 For the Humanist, atheistic evolution is not one option among many, but rather the only option compatible with their worldview. Creationism, or Intelligent Design, is considered an enemy of science. Secular Science – The Role of Science Humanists rely on secular science as the basic source of knowledge. They claim that a true definition of science excludes any supernatural explanation for any event occurring in nature, including the origin of life. For Humanists, the scientist must only study what takes place in nature and arrive at naturalistic explanations for all events.

For Humanists, the scientist must only study what takes place in nature and arrive at naturalistic explanations for all events. In this way, the supernatural is ruled out of bounds. Obviously, when one assumes that science is the best method of obtaining knowledge and that science must exclude the supernatural, one cannot accept supernatural explanations for the origin of life. Julian Huxley sums it up: “ Modern science must rule out special creation or divine guidance.” 5 Why must “modern” science rule out creation?

Content: Because, as we have noted, science cannot observe or measure the supernatural and therefore is incapable of obtaining any knowledge about it. But by this definition science cannot render judgment on the theory of evolution, either. That is because one-time-only historical events, such as the origin of life, fall outside the parameters of the scientific method. The reason: such events cannot be repeated, observed, tested, or falsified. 6 Accordingly, neither creationism nor evolution is strictly “scientific.” Still, Humanists insist that evolutionary theory is scientific and the idea of a Grand Designer is not. Just how closed-minded the Humanists are toward creation is summed up by Isaac Asimov: “ To those who are trained in science, creationism seems like a bad dream, a sudden reliving of a nightmare, a renewed march of an army of the night risen to challenge free thought and enlightenment.” 7 Secular Science – Evolution as “Fact” Secular Science is grounded in Darwinian Evolution.

Carl Sagan states simply, “Evolution is a fact, not a theory.” 8 Huxley claims, “The first point to make about Darwin’s theory is that it is no longer a theory, but a fact...Darwinianism has come of age so to speak. We do no longer have to bother about establishing the fact of evolution.” 9 Antony Flew is scandalized by the notion that there was a time, “unbelievably,” when the Vatican questioned “the fact of the evolutionary origin of the species.” 10 Thus, Humanists claim that the fact of evolution relates to changes within a species (microevolution) as well as macroevolution, or the transmutation of species.
