A few decades ago, a high school graduate could find work in a factory and continue to work there for the rest of his life with a fairly decent lifestyle. Today even multiple college degrees can’t guarantee a good job to students after they graduate. The world is now a global economy. What happens in Japan or China can have major effects on the stock prices in America. Developed countries used to sustain through their own manufacturing but with the passage of time the manufacturing is being outsourced to other countries where labour rate is low. 2. Poverty
The gap between the income levels of the society is increasing by the year. | https://www.wonderslist.com/10-issues-youth-today-facing/ |

Gophers love to eat tulips. For control of rodents check with your local master gardeners. Moles don’t usually eat tulip bulbs unless the bulb is trying to rot and has bugs. For control of rodents check with your local master gardeners. Mice will use the runways of the gophers and moles to damage your bulbs. For control of rodents check with your local master gardeners. To keep animals like moles away plant bulbs distasteful to rodents such as daffodils, alliums or fritillaries. Smells such as castor oil, coffee grounds, or used kitty litter placed at the entrances of mole tunnels near your flower beds will keep moles from invading your flowers. Another way to keep these rodents away from your bulbs is to plant in containers. These containers can be above ground or small “mesh/wire” containers in the ground. | https://www.woodenshoe.com/care/animal-problems/ |

Seven species of mesquite ( Prosopis glandulosa, P. juliflora, P. pubescens, and others) cover some 54 million acres of Texas, and parts of Arizona, California, Colorado, Kansas, Nevada, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Utah, and Mexico. Wherever it grows, it's hardy and persistent. In the arid part of its range, you'll see mesquite as more of a shrub than a tree. But in favorable conditions it grows to 50' with a single, but crooked, trunk up to 3' in diameter. Chocolate-colored, furrowed, and scaly bark make mesquite easy to identify. Its wide, spreading canopy made of twisted branches and long, thin leaves may be the only silhouette on an otherwise featureless landscape. Spring through fall, yellowish white flowers appear, followed by bean pods up to 8" long. Sharp thorns are everpresent. The wood of mesquite can vary in color from dark brown with wavy, blackish lines to camel tan. | https://www.woodmagazine.com/materials-guide/lumber/wood-species-2/mesquite |

why is the french horn in the woodwind quintet? 6/27/2014

"The French horn, first developed in the 1680s, was originally used to signal the beginning of a hunt, according to Horn History. However, as composers began writing more complex music for the horn, its structure and tonal characteristic changed. Brass or Woodwind. The French horn is technically a brass instrument because it is made of brass. However, its warm mellow sound blends well with woodwinds, which is why composers began writing it into woodwind quintets, according to the International Music Foundation of Chicago. Brass Quintet: The versatility of the French horn is such that it can also be part of a brass quintet.

Brass Quintet: The versatility of the French horn is such that it can also be part of a brass quintet. French Horn and Saxophone: The French horn is so similar to woodwind instruments that it often shares parts with the alto saxophone in larger band settings. Both of these instruments, in fact, can be seen as a link between the brass and the woodwind family. French Horn and Flute: The flute is a woodwind often mistaken for brass because it is made out of metal, usually silver or gold. Unlike the French horn, though, the flute is a true woodwind and was originally made from roof, though it produces sound by air passing over an opening instead of vibrating a reed. | https://www.woodwindchambermusicrepertoire.com/a-woodwind-blog/why-is-the-french-horn-in-the-woodwind-quintet |

Hand in Bell: Most French horn players support the horn by sticking their hand in the bell.

Karly - I suppose that is a 'tongue in cheek' comment (you're a saxophonist, right?). The saxophone was invented in 1840 (only about a dozen years after Beethoven died). Though the date of invention was after the large number of Reica and Danzi Quintets were written (with French Horn), there were countless pieces being written for saxophone in the last half of the 1800's - none of them included works replacing the French horn with a saxophone. And, certainly there are countless numbers of WW quintets written in the last century and currently that never substitute the sax for the horn. And, of course, there's the fact that the French horn has an astounding range of at least 4 octaves (even more with a professional horn player) and the saxophone has a range of only 2 octaves and a fifth (a bit more on newer saxophones). | https://www.woodwindchambermusicrepertoire.com/a-woodwind-blog/why-is-the-french-horn-in-the-woodwind-quintet |

All of the woodwinds in the WW quintet have greater ranges than this. Finally, although the sax is a great solo instrument and in an ensemble of only saxophones has a most unique sound, it does not blend well with the traditional woodwinds. Whereas, the French horn (especially with the right hand in the bell muting its sound) blends very well with woodwinds. Only a very limited part of the mid-range of saxophones blend well with the other woodwinds. However, having said all of this, the idea of using a saxophone with flute, oboe, clarinet and bassoon intrigues me. | https://www.woodwindchambermusicrepertoire.com/a-woodwind-blog/why-is-the-french-horn-in-the-woodwind-quintet |

Although, I just can't wrap my 'ears' around the sound just yet, I'm going to experiment with writing something with that combination of instruments :-)

Lesson One: “Introduction”
Lesson 1: Introduction and Baptism
Support materials
Content: People sometimes avoid this sacrament, preferring not to be reminded of the hard facts of human mortality. But it is precisely when we experience the limits of the human condition and feel the vulnerability of our flesh that the omnipotent, immortal God draws closest to us. In this sacrament, Christ, the good physician bestows spiritual healing on those who receive it in faith. God in Christ did not distance himself from the harsh reality of suffering and death. But entered into these facts of human existence directly, seeking out those who suffer and offering healing, consolation, and hope. Lesson 7: Matrimony and Holy Orders
The sacraments of Matrimony and Holy Orders are fundamentally about mission. Though differing in scope and nature, both are critical to the life of the Church and, indeed, the world. In the eyes of God, it is not merely the individual, but rather the married couple, who are the primary foundation of human society. Those who receive the sacrament of Marriage do not simply express a romantic inclination to each other, but also testify to their belief that God has called them to this love and entrusted it to them as their primary mission in life. | https://www.wordonfire.org/study-programs/the-sacraments/ |

In the eyes of God, it is not merely the individual, but rather the married couple, who are the primary foundation of human society. Those who receive the sacrament of Marriage do not simply express a romantic inclination to each other, but also testify to their belief that God has called them to this love and entrusted it to them as their primary mission in life. While marriage itself is a sign of God’s love, there is even a more mysterious sign. Through the sacrament of Holy Orders, men are conformed in their very souls to the person of Christ. This identity is not meant to serve the recipient of the sacrament as a source of self-aggrandizement, but instead is meant to serve the mission of the Church. From the earliest day, the Church has seen fit that priests should live as Jesus did, in single-minded devotion to God and to the Church, so when people see and come to know the priest, they might see and come to know Christ.

Content: In fact, now I pay for a family plan and have gotten all my family members (and maybe some roommates) hooked on it. Moral of the story: if you market to college students early, they can become your most loyal customers. Look at Apple! The shiny-fruit company consistently gives discounts to college students, creating lifelong Mac users. If you’re not completely convinced that college students are a valuable market, here are some stats before we dive in…
Why market to college students? College students are a huge demographic in the US, consisting mostly of 18 to 24-year-olds. These young adults have spending power: the 15M group spends more than $200B annually. Not only are they age-stable, but they also are geographically stagnant for 4-5 years. | https://www.wordstream.com/blog/ws/2020/08/26/marketing-strategies-college-students |

These young adults have spending power: the 15M group spends more than $200B annually. Not only are they age-stable, but they also are geographically stagnant for 4-5 years. That means you have a lot of time to develop branding and marketing specific to this group to see what will really stick. While this is most likely already living in the back of your mind, Gen Z is the tech-native generation. They are constantly online (especially during quarantine), consuming content, shopping, and engaging with peers. And they’re cleverer than previous generations when it comes to advertising: almost 70% of Gen Zers use ad blockers. | https://www.wordstream.com/blog/ws/2020/08/26/marketing-strategies-college-students |

Content: college kids love free stuff. I can’t tell you the number of events I attended in college because they offered free food. What better way to hook some long-term loyal customers than offering your product for free? There are a few ways you can actually get your free samples or trials in front of your audience; try coordinating with residence life to have a move-in kit available for the fall semester or sponsored study break during midterms or finals. If you’re a food service on Seamless, GrubHub, or DoorDash, you can offer a discount for first-time diners; once they get a taste, they’ll keep coming back for more. 2. Offer targeted discounts
Just like personalized ads, discounts specific to your audience are a great way to engage them. Everyone wants to think that their school is the best—what better way to reinforce that than advertising “For a limited time, Villanova students get free fries with every cheeseburger.” | https://www.wordstream.com/blog/ws/2020/08/26/marketing-strategies-college-students |

Have you hung out with college kids recently? If you haven’t, you’re missing out. I truly learn new words every time I’m around the youths. Since college came into existence, kids have been creating their own lingo for academia and partying (and I’m really trying to make “groovy” come back into style). While I wouldn’t recommend trying *too* hard to speak their language, catching students’ eyes with clever marketing and ad copy is a must. Whatever you do, don’t be lame. | https://www.wordstream.com/blog/ws/2020/08/26/marketing-strategies-college-students |

Content: College kids are still pinning coupons to their fridge or digging them out when it’s time to order food. Think about sponsoring on-campus events, or having an on-campus pop-up shop in the middle of the main through-way to get the most out of student foot traffic. I can’t tell you the number of coupons just like this that were stacked in my kitchen drawer in my college apartment. They came in handy when we didn’t want to go grocery shopping or cook, but still needed to stick to a college kid budget! 6. Host a giveaway, raffle, or competition
If you’re trying to build up your social following or your email listserv, or simply get a lot of students engaged with your business, host a giveaway. You’ll need to make it tempting enough for college students to actually give away their information and/or money to win. That could be a Sonos speaker system to boost the music at parties, covering the cost of a parking pass on campus, offering a lifetime of free sides (french fries forever!), naming a product after them, the list goes on and on. You can also pay into the competitive nature of college kids! | https://www.wordstream.com/blog/ws/2020/08/26/marketing-strategies-college-students |

Whether that means engaging with them in your store or restaurant or keeping track of recurring orders online, make sure you’re acknowledging their loyalty.

Pay attention to the students who are loyal patrons of your business. Whether that means engaging with them in your store or restaurant or keeping track of recurring orders online, make sure you’re acknowledging their loyalty. Think of your student ambassadors as nano-influencers. Make some ambassador kits, including simple pieces of swag like a t-shirt, bottle opener, water bottle, etc. and arm them with materials to give away to their peers. This can work best if they get referral discounts themselves! While not college-student-specific, Aerie is great at leveraging user generated content on their social accounts. They are regularly #regram-ing content from their customers—which just makes it easier to fill your social calendar! | https://www.wordstream.com/blog/ws/2020/08/26/marketing-strategies-college-students |

I was in college during KONY 2012. What a movement. And let me tell you, everyone was talking about it. I mean professors, students, residential life, school administrators, food service employees, and more. It was the social justice cause of the year. By nature, college students are bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, ready to save the world. And this generation in particular is invested in social justice. Reflect on an issue that affects the community your business is in. Not only will it make the world a better place to have another contribution to the plastic-free or BLM fight, but students will also be more inclined to give your brand a second look if their money is also going to a cause they believe in. | https://www.wordstream.com/blog/ws/2020/08/26/marketing-strategies-college-students |

Look for college media sources
Meet college students where they are and with what they’re consuming. Most likely, the students you’re targeting have a student-lead newspaper, weekly newsletters, or even a popular online student forum or app. Reach out to those publications to sponsor a post or display ad . SImilar to reaching out to student ambassadors, look for student-run social media accounts to offer sponsored posts. | https://www.wordstream.com/blog/ws/2020/08/26/marketing-strategies-college-students |

About The Author
Hannah Cohen
Content: Develop talent
Utilization rates also help in spotting talent development issues. You want your senior resources to work on your highest value projects. You also want them to spend more time on business development and coaching/mentoring junior resources. If your utilization rates indicate that your junior resources are underutilized while senior resources are spending too much time on low-value clients, you have a talent development issue at hand. Junior resources aren’t learning enough and seniors don’t have enough time for more high-value development/mentoring work. Thus, it helps to track utilization rates not only by skill, but also resource seniority. This can also help you spot junior resources that need additional training (i.e. they spend too much time on non-billable work due to constant revision requests). How to Increase Utilization Rate
As you can see, utilization rate impacts every facet of your agency’s operations. Tracking it will give you deep insight into how your agency works and where it can improve. Do keep in mind that there is a limit to how much billable work you can extract from creative workers. | https://www.workamajig.com/blog/utilization-rate |

Anarchy built into capitalist production
Capitalism breeds monopolization
Irrational system creating its gravediggers
Content: Their only goals are profit and survival. The competition that did away with the feudal mode of production has turned into competition between capitalists. It ever intensifies, and the weaker ones are always under threat of ruin. This, however, is not the kind of ruin that the workers face. A capitalist enterprise might be absorbed by a stronger enterprise or have to close shop and have its capital employed somewhere else. In any case, the ruin of any capitalist is not worth the shedding of any worker's tears. The system itself is unstable. These competing capitalists are driven by an underlying law of capitalism — expand or die. At a time of protracted stagnation the stronger capitalists absorb the weaker ones. The suffering of the workers intensifies. | https://www.workers.org/2012/us/contradictions_in_capitalism_0223/ |

Content: Capitalist competition inevitably leads to crisis. These contradictions cannot be done away with within the bounds of the capitalist system. They occur independently, outside the will and control of the capitalists themselves. Irrational system creating its gravediggers
Capitalism is not a rational system. Capitalists serve no necessary function in present society and are responsible for just about all the problems of society. The atrocities committed against the planet in their reckless pursuit of riches are mind boggling. The pursuit of oil and natural gas without study or precaution against potential risks is among the most harmful. The very air that we breathe and the water that we drink, two of the essentials that support life, have been poisoned by the capitalists. It is an amazing contradiction that capitalist competition causes them to be so reckless that they cause a reduction in the quality of the water that we drink and the air that we breathe. I presume that they drink the same water and breathe the same air. | https://www.workers.org/2012/us/contradictions_in_capitalism_0223/ |

Content: All managers should be focused on improving their employees’ strengths through coaching. Unfortunately, almost half of managers spend less than 10% of their time coaching their team. It’s no surprise, then, that only 28% of employees feel that their managers hold effective discussions about performance (source: Forbes ). To be good coaches, managers should keep performance feedback focused on the future as much as possible. Punishing for past mistakes or underperformance doesn’t facilitate future development. Effective coaches give frequent, specific feedback about what employees can do to start improving right now. To ensure that your managers are coaching their teams, encourage them to ask: “ What are you going to get done this week?” And, “What do you need from me?” | https://www.workfront.com/blog/how-to-improve-performance-management-in-6-steps |

Content: Boyfriends pose a higher risk than do biological dads. Data show that stepfathers, adoptive fathers and boyfriends are more likely to sexually abuse a child than are biological fathers. Though not every stepfather or boyfriend presents a risk, exercise caution when bringing someone new into the family home. 8. Young women underestimate the personal risk of sexual abuse and assault. Research reveals that young women have an optimistic bias that lends them to think not only that assault is less likely to happen to them than it is to their peers, but also that they can handle a situation better than others should something occur. 9. LGBTQ youth are at twice the risk of sexual violence. If your child is gay, lesbian, bisexual or gender non-conforming, know that their risk of being victimized is considerably higher than that of their peers. 10. | https://www.workingmother.com/how-to-keep-your-child-safe-10-things-you-may-not-know-about-child-sexual-abuse |

Content: You may already know how to take the test, but when you take it is also important when it comes to ensuring accuracy. At-home pregnancy tests work by measuring the amount of a pregnancy hormone called human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in your urine. This hormone can be detected at any time of day, so it's OK to take the test at night. But to be on the safe side, follow a few simple guidelines to increase your odds of an accurate result. When to Test
How to Calculate When I Should Take a Pregnancy Test
Learn More
For the most reliable results, it's recommended that pregnancy tests be conducted in the morning when the urine is most concentrated. As the day goes on and more fluids are consumed, it may be more difficult to detect hCG levels—especially if you’re testing in advance of your missed period. Keep in mind that the closer you are to the date of your scheduled menstrual cycle, the more accurate the results. Some tests claim to detect hCG as early as five days before a missed period, but it may take waiting until the day of your missed period for your hCG levels to be measurable. If your urine is too diluted from a day's worth of beverages, there may not be enough hCG to yield a positive result. Resources for your journey...

Content: Kitchen Designers
Kitchen designers are primarily involved with kitchen aesthetics and usefulness to the people who use them. The designers can work hand in hand with constructors to determine the floor plan or can come after the floorwork has been done to help clients with kitchen items. Kitchen designers should balance both design and functionality of the items they recommend in the kitchen. The designers should know the effect of kitchen temperatures on the decors they go for, the maintenance required, and general replacement procedures. Advice to students who desire to pursue an interior design bachelors degree: Always listen to what clients need and want. To be successful, creativity, passion for color, and skill for vision are a must. It is also advisable to further your education or train under a skilled interior designer before you start working independently. Regardless of the career path that you take, remember, interior design is not just about how the space looks, but also about how it functions. Becoming an interior designer is a demanding career and you must be passionate to succeed. | https://www.workitdaily.com/career-paths-interior-design |

Functional Capacity Assessment (FCA)
Last Updated: June 30, 2018
Definition - What does Functional Capacity Assessment (FCA) mean? A functional capacity assessment is an evaluation used to determine whether or not an employee is able to perform the necessary tasks associated with his or her job. This assessment may include physical testing, health analysis, and comparison of the employee's abilities with the required functions of the job. A functional capacity assessment may be used to determine whether a prospective employee can perform a job, match an existing employee to a suitable position, or evaluate the capacity of an employee returning to work after an illness or injury. A functional capacity assesment can also be referred to as a functional capacity evaluation. FREE DOWNLOAD! Sleep Apnea in the Workplace: Your Comprehensive Guide to Proper Diagnosis

WorkplaceTesting explains Functional Capacity Assessment (FCA)
Functional capacity assessments usually consist of a series of tests. These tests are used to determine whether an individual has the ability to perform each of the necessary tasks associated with his or her assigned job but not make determinationsunrelated to required job duties. To make this determination, the employee's functional capacity is compared to the physical demands of the job. Best practices require that those physical demands be pre-determined and quantified for accurate analysis. When determining an employee's functional capacity testing may include an assessment of his or her range of motion, strength, stamina, and other abilities. Functional capacity assessments may not be used for discriminatory purposes but can help an employer match employees to a job that is best suited to his or her physical strengths and weakness. | https://www.workplacetesting.com/definition/4056/functional-capacity-assessment-fca |

Content: These tests are used to determine whether an individual has the ability to perform each of the necessary tasks associated with his or her assigned job but not make determinationsunrelated to required job duties. To make this determination, the employee's functional capacity is compared to the physical demands of the job. Best practices require that those physical demands be pre-determined and quantified for accurate analysis. When determining an employee's functional capacity testing may include an assessment of his or her range of motion, strength, stamina, and other abilities. Functional capacity assessments may not be used for discriminatory purposes but can help an employer match employees to a job that is best suited to his or her physical strengths and weakness. The information gained during a functional capacity assessment may also be used to determine if an employee can perform a task with accommodations.

Content: The Occupational Health and Safety Act mandates that every employer must, as far as reasonable practicable, provide and maintain a healthy and safe working environment. This includes planning, developing and implementing medical surveillance programs that include functional capacity evaluations. Preventing injury, as well as ensuring the efficiency of the workplace, is vital to the successful operations of an organization. Functional capacity evaluations therefore, provide employers with a tool for measuring an injured worker's ability to return to the workplace. What is a Functional Capacity Evaluation? A Functional Capacity Evaluation (FCE) is used to measure an individual’s capacity to carry out tasks associated with his or her job role. Traditionally, functional capacity evaluations measured an individual’s ability to perform the physical demands of a specific job. However, within recent years they have evolved to include the cognitive and psychological demands of a job as well. Therefore, in an occupational setting, functional capacity evaluations are conducted to provide a comparison of a worker’s health status, as well as body functions and structure, relative to the demands of their job and work environment. Types of Functional Capacity Evaluations
There are two types of functional capacity evaluations that are commonly utilized. | https://www.workplacetesting.com/when-to-use-a-functional-capacity-evaluation/2/1375 |

Content: The results of job specific FCEs will determine whether or not the worker can do the assigned job duties safely, or if modifications to the job tasks are required. General Purpose FCEs are conducted when there is no longer a specific job for a worker, for example, returning to work after an illness or injury. Standardized tests are conducted to evaluate the individual's overall physical capabilities, the results of which will help to determine if the employee's ability to perform specific jobs that may be come available to the employee in the future. The Benefits of Conducting Functional Capacity Evaluations in an Occupational Setting
The benefits of conducting functional capacity evaluations are not only limited to matching the capacity of workers with their job role. Functional capacity evaluations can also: Reduce the rate of workplace injuries
Reduce worker compensation claims and insurance costs
Create a safer work environment
Assist with the planning and structuring of effective return-to-work programs and guidelines
Minimise downtime
The Components of a Functional Capacity Evaluation
The components of a functional capacity evaluation will vary based on the purpose for which it is being conducted. FCEs are conducted on a one-on-one basis and may range in lengths from 4 hours up to two consecutive days. In an occupational setting, the worker will first be interviewed by either a physiotherapist, occupational therapist, or exercise physiologist. That interview is then followed by a review of the worker's medical records. Next, a series of assessment activities are carried out, including: | https://www.workplacetesting.com/when-to-use-a-functional-capacity-evaluation/2/1375 |

Following the evaluation the worker, as well as the employer, will be provided with a comprehensive report produced by the physiotherapists, and occupational therapists or exercise physiologists detailing the following: The worker's ability to return safely to work
The need for any workplace modifications or adjustments, if any
The need for additional rehabilitation
Practical Applications of Functional Capacity Evaluations in the Workplace
Functional capacity evaluations are useful in the following occupational settings: To determine a worker's physical capabilities and limitations after an illness or injury
For pre-employment screenings to ensure that the potential worker is able cope with the physical and cognitive demands of the job position
To settle workers' compensation and disability cases
To determine whether a worker is able to safely return to his/her full job duties
To provide an objective analysis of a worker's functional performance so that the psychosocial factors that influence return-to-work outcomes can be identified
To identify additional rehabilitation needs of workers, if any
To obtain baseline measurements
Advantages of Conducting Functional Capacity Evaluations
Although the validity of functional capacity evaluations have received much criticism with regards to the extent it measures an individual's ability or inability to work, FCEs are still widely viewed as one of the most reliable and objective ways to measure a person's physical and cognitive capabilities. For employees, it ensures that there is a safe transition from injury to return-to-work. | https://www.workplacetesting.com/when-to-use-a-functional-capacity-evaluation/2/1375 |

Title: WorkWell Functional Capacity Evaluation (FCE) v2.0
Course Overview: WorkWell’s Functional Capacity Evaluation (FCE) is a comprehensive functional test designed to objectively measure the maximum safe functional abilities of a client across a broad range of tasks in an effort to describe worker abilities and generate recommendations for return to work (and activities of daily living). The FCE is used to assist in workers compensation cases, fit for duty testing, transitional duty or return to work placement, and disability determination cases. This 2-day training is designed to develop physical and occupational therapists knowledge and skills related to performance of the WorkWell FCE. Participants will be introduced to standardized performance based testing protocols for functional activities such as lifting/carrying, walking, sitting, standing, bending, overhead reach, push/pull, ladder climb, kneel/crawl, crouch, hand coordination, etc. Development of customized protocols for job specific testing, medical-legal and referrer requested testing is presented, as well as administrative considerations of test delivery. Hands on lab sessions, documentation templates and group discussion are a large component of the training with focus on objective scoring definitions and observation skills (including muscle function, movement patterns, physiological changes, safety, worker behavior and integrated consistency checks). Client presentation and test results are used for report writing to develop treatment and return to work recommendations.

Content: First, demand rose strongly to 2010 after more than a decade of stagnation; secondly some 50 GWe of generating plant (more than a quarter of it) in the European part of Russia is approcahing the end of its design lifetime; and thirdly Gazprom cut back on the very high level of natural gas supplies for electricity generation because it can make about five times as much money by exporting the gas to the West (over 30% of EU gas comes from Russia). In 2012 Gazprom exports were expected to reach $84.5 billion, $61 billion of this to Europe. Gazprom gas exports to western Europe increased by 20% over 2010 to 2016, and in 2015 were 158.6 billion cubic metres. Russia is one of the few countries without a populist energy policy favouring wind and solar generation; the priority is unashamedly nuclear. UES's gas-fired plants burn about 60% of the gas marketed in Russia by Gazprom, and plans were to halve this by 2020. ( Also, by 2020, the Western Siberian gas fields were expected to be so depleted that they would supply only one-tenth of current Russian output, compared with nearly three-quarters in about 2010.) Also there are major regional grid constraints so that a significant proportion of the capacity of some plants cannot be used. | https://www.world-nuclear.org/information-library/country-profiles/countries-o-s/russia-nuclear-power.aspx |

Content: Equestrian Events
In the early Greek City States, equestrian events included chariot and horse races in hippodromes. A hippodrome was an outdoor theater where many important functions and racing sports occurred. Although the Greeks practiced equestrian events in the early Olympics, the sport was dropped somewhere in time but found its way back to the summer Olympics in France in the year 1900. During these events, men and women compete together on equal terms. Events include Polo competitions, the Grand Prix Jumping, and the High Jump. Today, these events have seen a transformation in rules and regulations. Ancient Traditions
The first Olympics were held in Olympia, a Greek City State. The games were held after every four years, a tradition that remains today although more days have been added to the event to accommodate the many games of modern Olympics. The first Olympics were held in 776 BC as part of religious functions in honor of Zeus, the god of god. Although many of the games were barbaric in nature, most of games played in ancient Olympics have evolved and new ones have been invented. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/10-sports-that-came-from-ancient-greece.html |

Content: Image credit: rblfmr/Shutterstock.com
Along with education, many people immigrate to the United States seeking better job opportunities. In 2015, approximately 33 percent of visas were granted to people looking for work. Sometimes they come having already been offered a job, while others come hoping to acquire one. Trends indicate that many immigrants move to areas where wages are higher and there are more jobs available. For example, before the 2009 recession, many people from Mexico came in search of work in the agricultural industry because the promise of economic prosperity was greater. And despite the myth that immigrants take jobs away from “born-and-bred” Americans, scholars typically agree that immigration has a positive impact on the labor market. 5. Reunification
As its name implies, reunification is when people are reunited with a family member who already lives in another country. Ever since the laws were amended in 1968, reunification has become the most common reason for immigrating to America. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/8-reasons-why-people-immigrate-to-the-united-states.html |

Content: Groundhogs, mice, and hamsters also prefer to keep their food in a single stash. Moles
Moles’ underground lifestyle offers protection from extreme weather, but they do not hibernate and can, therefore, go hungry if they do not stock up for the winter. Earthworms make up a substantial part of their diet, and they can eat an equivalent of their body weight on a single day. During winter, worms become harder to find as the soil chills and become hard. Moles have, therefore, developed the most bizarre hoarding strategy in the animal kingdom; they capture and keep earthworms alive as prisoners. They bite the head to inflict an injury that immobilizes the prey. Some have toxins to paralyze earthworms. As many as 400 live worms can be found in a single chamber. Shrews
Shrews resemble mice, but they are closely related to moles. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/animals-that-hoard-their-food.html |

Content: The tusk is actually a canine tooth projecting on the left upper jaw and through the lip to form a twirl helix. The tusk grows all through their lifespan up to 10 ft in length and weighs about 22 lbs. About one in 500 males have two tusks where the right canine also protrudes. Approximately, only 15% of the females grow a tusk that is long enough to form the spiral found in their male counterparts. The hollow ivory tusk is an innervated sensory organ possessing up to 10 million nerve endings that connect the brain to seawater stimuli in the external environment. It is believed that the males communicate about the nature of the water by rubbing their tusks together. Some scientists believe that it is also a mating ritual intended to impress the females. Diet
Narwhals have a restrictive specialized diet predominantly comprising of Arctic cod, cuttlefish, shrimp, Greenland halibut, and arm hook squid. To feed, they have to dive 1,640 ft. below sea level and use sound to detect their prey. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/are-narwhals-real.html |

Content: By 1900, when the force of the quick colonization was over, the majority of the land in Africa was divided up amongst seven different European colonizing nations: Britain, France, Spain, Germany, Belgium, Italy, and Portugal. There were several different reasons why European colonizers set their sights on the African continent Some of the most prominent ones are outlined below: Search for Riches
The 19th century was home to the industrial revolution, a time when many European nations were flourishing in the technology sector of the time. However, in order to accomplish these advancements, they needed a source of constant raw material supply. European powers noticed that many of these raw materials happened to be abundant in Africa. Desire For Exploration
Prior to the wave of European colonization, the geography of Africa was generally misunderstood. Much like the adventurers who had traveled to Asia and North America, many European explorers set out to determine the physical makeup of the African continent. Competition Between Colonizers
At the time of the Scramble for Africa, major world powers like Great Britain, France, and Spain were competing for power on the European stage. The amount of land that each country owned was considered to be a great indicator of power, with every state wanting to do better than their neighbor. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/colonialism-in-africa.html |

A large motivator behind African colonization was the desire to spread Christianity throughout the world. Much like what occurred in North and South America, European colonizers brought the Christian faith to Africa through missionaries. Imperialism
A key ideology behind imperialism, which in turn informs colonialism, is the idea of racial superiority or cultural superiority. Again, much like the ideals behind the colonialism of the Americas, many European colonizers thought that they were doing a favor to those living on the African continent by introducing to them the European way of life, even if it came at the cost of destroying established societies.

Life In Africa Under Colonialism and Beyond
Life for the African people during colonization was difficult. Many of the ideologies behind imperialism were discriminatory in nature, using racist beliefs to justify harsh authoritarian leadership styles. Throughout the colonial period, the societies that had been established in Africa fought hard to fend off their European colonizers. However, due to the fact that European powers were disproportionately aided by the products of the industrial revolution, many former empires and kingdoms that had been present in Africa were at a disadvantage and lost to the colonizers. Throughout this time, Africa was forever changed. It has been argued that the poverty that is still experienced today in many African countries is a lasting effect of colonialism. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/colonialism-in-africa.html |

Countries That Use the US Dollar
The US dollar is the world’s most recognized currency. The US dollar is the world’s most recognized currency and it has been used to measure the performance of major world currencies in the money market. International bodies like the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund use it as the main currency when giving out loans and grants. Forbes also measures the worth of wealthy people using the American dollar. Apart from the USA, there are independent countries around the world that use the American dollar as their national currency in a form of either partial substitution or full substitution due to political and economic factors. Countries That Use the US Dollar
Zimbabwe
In response to the uncontrollable inflation brought about by disastrous economic policies and international sanctions, Zimbabwe was forced to adopt the US dollar in place of the Zimbabwean currency which had been rendered worthless. The government in 2009 allowed Zimbabweans to use the dollar to conduct business activities alongside other major currencies like the Euro and the South African Rand. With the economy showing signs of recovery, there is no sign of the government lifting the suspension on the use of the local currency. Costa Rica
The country has no economic crisis to warrant the use of the dollar, but it allows the use of the dollar alongside the national currency called the Colones. Tourists visiting the country are encouraged to bring along the American dollars but in smaller denominations which are in good condition. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/countries-that-use-the-us-dollar.html |

The Iraqi currency is called the Iraqi dinar. US dollars were used in the aftermath of the 2003 US-led invasion where the economy collapsed. The Coalition Provisional Authority used US dollars to pay Iraqi security officers and their army before the Iraqi dinar was reintroduced after the CPA handed over to an Iraqi government. The dollars are still in use alongside the dinar in business transactions. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/countries-that-use-the-us-dollar.html |

Despite the national currency being the Balboa, the country still uses the dollar as the national currency in business activities. The country only uses the dollar as a legal tender but not as a paper currency.

There are questions whether it encourages the foreign dominance in the affairs of the country by nationalist groups. The prestige of using the US currency is not lost since the US is widely seen as the leader of the free world. American dominance of the world is not just in military perspective but in the world economy too. By using the dollar, these countries do expect to benefit from that dominance through trade.

Countries With the Most American Emigrants
Millions of Americans live outside the United States. About nine million Americans live outside the country according to an estimate by the State Department. Americans migrate from their country for several reasons. Some are government employees such as consular staff, some get married outside the country, some move in search of adventure and fall in love with their country of residence, while others are employees of multinationals. Other individuals may migrate because of the hard economic times in the United States. Natural born American citizens and anyone born in the United States or at least to an American parent is considered a citizen. Americans living abroad do not lose their citizenship unless they legally and intentionally renounce it. Where Are Americans Migrating? A majority of Americans living abroad do not live far from the state. About 900,000 live in Mexico, 800,000 in the European Union, and about 740,000 are in Canada. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/countries-with-the-most-american-emigrants.html |

Mexico City has more than 400,000 Americans making it the single urban environment with the largest number of Americans. However, most Americans living in Mexico are Americans of Mexican descent. The proximity between the two states makes it easy for citizens of the two countries to move back and forth. About 68,000 people cross the San Ysidro border crossing between San Diego and Mexico. Some of the people are Americans working in the United States but living in Mexico. Europe
About 800,000 Americans live in the European Union compared to the more than 4 million Europeans who live in the United States. The two main reasons why Americans migrate to Europe is employment and relationships considering Europe's close ties to the US.

Countries With the Oldest Average Marrying Age
In several countries, the popularity of marriage is declining. The global trend suggests that people are delaying marriage for longer than the previous generations. The number of people that are committing to marriage is dropping. Marriage is the legal and formal union between two partners engaged in a personal relationship. The average age of marriage varies from one country to another. The decision to get married is affected by several factors such as family background, career, financial stability, and academic pursuit. The following are countries with the oldest average marrying age. Countries With the Oldest Average Marrying Age
Sweden
The average marrying age in Sweden is 34.8 years. Men in the country marry at an average of 36 whereas women get married at an average of 33.5 years. In Sweden, more couples choose partnership over marriage because they feel comfortable being partners rather than being married. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/countries-with-the-oldest-average-marrying-age.html |

Countries With the Oldest Average Marrying Age
Content: The idea of a partnership over marriage is not isolated to Sweden; it is a practice common in many of the Scandinavian countries. For those who decided to get married, education and career are given priority rather than starting a family. The Swedes also tend to prefer achieving personal dreams before settling down in a marriage. Chile
The average age of marriage in Chile is 34 years. Men get married at 35.3 years while women get married at 32.6 years. Chile is the only country in South America that seems to defy the continental trend of getting marriage below the age of 30. The trend in Chile is attributed to the national culture where people have adopted the idea of getting married between the age of 33 and 35. It is also a culture that people have to date for about 3 to 5 years before getting married. Iceland
The age of marriage in Iceland is 33.7 years, 34.6 for men and 33.7 for women. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/countries-with-the-oldest-average-marrying-age.html |

The age of marriage in Iceland is 33.7 years, 34.6 for men and 33.7 for women. Iceland is a Scandinavian country just like Sweden, and partners prefer partnership rather than marriage. The population factor also contributes to the older age of marriage considering that the country’s population is about 350,000. More people are getting married to immigrants or leaving the country altogether to get married abroad. Spain
The average age of marriage in Spain is 33.4 years: 34.5 for men and 32.3 for women. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/countries-with-the-oldest-average-marrying-age.html |

Content: Effects on Greater British Society and Trade
The effects of the revolution were immense and far-reaching. Now farmers were able to provide enough for the population, and the surplus produce was traded. Better infrastructure meant that produce reached local and international markets through exports. As food production increased, a rise in population was experienced as more people could be sustained. A large population in the UK became non-land holders as the tenure system of land came into effect, a situation which created a large market for agricultural produce and help boost trade. Improved trade enabled growth of the banking sector and development of loan facilities as economic assistance to farmers, and therefore underpinning industrial revolution. The Agricultural Revolution's Facilitation of the Industrial Revolution
The agricultural revolution in Britain was instrumental in the developments that characterized the industrial revolution. The enclosure system had displaced people who subsequently moved into cities. A further increase in population provided labor for the industries. The agricultural revolution, which led to a greater abundance of food, had led to significant reductions in the prices of foodstuffs. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/did-the-british-agricultural-revolution-lead-to-the-industrial-revolution.html |

Environmental Impact Of Animal Agriculture
Activists protesting against animal agriculture. Animal agriculture involves the production of livestock and animal by-products for human consumption. Huge tracts of land and millions of gallons of water are needed to grow, feed, and raise these animals. The environmental impact of this practice is detrimental to the land, air, and water and involves the unsustainable use of fossil fuels. It is one of the biggest contributors to global climate change and deforestation around the world, presenting a great threat to the world’s biodiversity. Some of the facts are astounding. For example, animal agriculture is responsible for emitting 18% of all greenhouse gasses, and this is expected to increase 80% by the year 2050. The production of one calorie of animal protein requires ten times more fossil fuels than it takes to produce one calorie of plant protein. Factory farming is responsible for much more destruction including chemical fumes, toxic runoff, and unsustainable water use (to name a few). The animal waste that runs off these livestock lots pollutes local waterways with pesticides, herbicides, hormones, antibiotics, phosphate-rich fertilizer, and bacteria. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/environmental-impact-of-animal-agriculture.html |

A Weihnachtsmarkt (Christmas market) in Bavaria, Germany. Germany has an extensive culture that spans among almost all of the nations that speak German. Historically, the German culture has been influenced by great minds and intellectuals that led to the nation earning the description of a nation full of poets and thinkers. Some of the internationally recognized cultures from Germany include festivals like Oktoberfest and Weihnachten. As a modern society, Germany has made leaps in things like gender equality, same-sex marriage, and the promotion of rights for disabled people. The nation’s perspective about immigrants has also changed considerably in the last decade. The government is making more of an effort in recognizing immigrants. The German Language
The official language of Germany is German, which is also among the 23 official languages used by the European Union. In addition, German is one of the working languages of the European Commission together with French and English.

Not only does e-waste make unsightly rubbish heaps, it can pose serious threats to humans and the environment. What is E-waste? Electronic waste, or e-waste, is generated by discarding any electronic products like VCRs, DVD players, computers, TVs, monitors, cell phones, fax machines, and printers. Around 60 % of the e-waste ends up in landfill, without being recycled. Electronic products contain toxic metals elements like beryllium, cadmium, mercury or lead which constitute an environmental threat when in landfills. Sometimes e-waste is burnt, leading to the release of highly toxic dioxins and furans from burning plastic, polluting the air. Heavy metals such as lead, cadmium and mercury can also be released into the air or remain in ashes. When they find their way into the food-chain, especially through aquatic life, they can result in bio-accumulation of poisonous metals, becoming a health risk. Sources of E-waste
Globally, 41.8 million metric tons of e-waste was produced in 2014, and can rise up to 33% by 2017. It is fast become a major source of toxic waste. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/highest-e-waste-generating-nations-in-the-world.html |

Globally, 41.8 million metric tons of e-waste was produced in 2014, and can rise up to 33% by 2017. It is fast become a major source of toxic waste. There are many reasons for this waste generation. Electronic product development has been very rapid in the past decades. New technology makes previous products obsolete. For example VCRs were replaced by DVDs, which were replaced by Blue-ray players. It is not just technology that changes, but a constant improvement of products leads to new models every year, like TVs and cellphones. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/highest-e-waste-generating-nations-in-the-world.html |

Content: The Importance of Recycling
Another reason for accumulation of waste is that the waste produced is not recycled. There are many laws especially in Europe for the proper treatment of e-waste. Most countries however do not have the facilities to deal with the volume or toxic nature of e-waste. Recycling is also an expensive process,especially when it is done properly with secure and safe technology and conditions. So many countries export waste is to Asia and Africa, where the rules governing e-waste management are lax. In Europe, 47% of the e-waste export, and 50-80% of e-waste export was found to be illegal. The Asian and African countries, however, do not have adequate technology or the means to handle the e-waste. People, including children handle toxic components with bare hands, leading to health problems. E-waste Management
There is some confusion on what constitutes e-waste. Refrigerators are also sometimes included as e-waste. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/highest-e-waste-generating-nations-in-the-world.html |

Many parts like plastic, glass and metals that could be reused are lost in landfills. Moreover, precious metals like gold and silver to the tune of $60 million in cellphones and other electronic articles ends up in landfills in the USA alone. Currently some recycling occurs. Plastic is not recycled in many countries to avoid the release of dioxin and furans. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/highest-e-waste-generating-nations-in-the-world.html |

Implications
Content: The use of platforms such as Twitter allows an individual to maintain their talking points and agenda without being quoted out of context by the news media. In the lead up to any modern-day election, online engagement and media have become increasingly important and influential. Take one look at a major news broadcast today and it is almost a guarantee that a social media post (negative or positive) will be a part of the presentation. Pew Research Center conducted a 2016 study that showed 62% of adults in the United States get the majority of their news from social media. Not only is this worrisome due to the lack of diversity within the Facebook news feed algorithm, but due to this algorithm, the individual will usually receive information that is in line with their current political beliefs. This process is known as an echo chamber and will serve to reinforce views rather than offer new information or alternative methods or ideas. Implications
The consequences of media influence on future elections are very murky and unknown due to the rise and pervasiveness of social media as a reporting and communication tool. These online platforms allow consumers to receive news 24 hours a day which has lead to more of an opinion and commentary based news industry. The fact that candidate for office can directly communicate with their base without leaving the house and creating a theatrical news conference is a massive shift from traditional media practices and routines. Traditional media coverage remains a critical tool for information, but due to coverage/non-coverage bias, and social media, among other factors, these institutions may have an increasingly less significant role in future elections. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/how-does-the-media-influence-the-outcome-of-an-election.html |

How Do People End Up In Poverty
There are many routes to poverty. Many people are born poor, meaning their family was living in poverty when they started life, and some people end up there from losing a job, or incurring overwhelming healthcare bills that force them into bankruptcy. Major life events such as marriage, divorce or a sudden death in the family can also force people into poverty. It is well documented that having less education can impact your financial future. In 2018, college graduates in the US earned weekly wages that were 80% higher than those who had only graduated highschool. A person’s health status can also affect how rich or poor they are. Poor people have higher rates of chronic diseases, as well as recorded mental health difficulties. This can be a result of the ongoing stress of being poor, and the environments people in poverty are forced to live in. Poor children are twice as likely as others to have unhealthy levels of lead in their blood, for example. The reasons people are poor are multifaceted. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/how-many-americans-suffer-from-poverty.html |

How Much Has The Sea Level Risen Since 1997? A diagrammatic representation of sea level rise. The mean sea level, commonly known as the “sea level” is the mean level of the ocean’s surface from which an altitude can be measured. Sea levels are affected by several factors and vary widely across the geological time scale. The measurement of the mean sea level can give insight into the effects of climate change. The rise of the sea level has been an indication of the progress of global warming. The term “above sea level” is a common phrase used when measuring the altitude of an area. It refers to the above mean sea level. How Is Sea Level Measured? | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/how-much-has-the-sea-level-risen-since-1997.html |

The term “above sea level” is a common phrase used when measuring the altitude of an area. It refers to the above mean sea level. How Is Sea Level Measured? The determination of the mean sea level is a challenging task considering the several factors which affect sea level. The sea is always in constant movement, influenced by several factors including tides, temperatures, storm surges and wind. Before the invention of the satellite systems, mean sea levels were measured using the tide gauge device that measured the height of water about a fixed point on land. A change in the mean sea level can be influenced by real changes in the sea level or changes in the land on which the tide gauge is used. Tide gauge reflects a short-term influence of the factors affecting the sea level introducing a larger margin of error. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/how-much-has-the-sea-level-risen-since-1997.html |

What is the Difference between the Holy See and Vatican City?
Language and Population
Content: Even though many people use these two words interchangeably, they are two different entities. The two words are confused since the Pope is the head of both the Vatican and the Holy See. The Holy See is the ecclesiastical authority of the entire Roman Catholic Church which is based in the Vatican City. The See of Rome is the top governing body of the Roman Catholic Church and is a sovereign entity. The Vatican is not recognized as a democracy since it’s an absolute ecclesiastical monarch; therefore it is not a member of the UN (United Nations). All the international bodies recognize the Holy See as an independent body, and it has an observer status in the UN. The Holy See has been in existence since the time of the early churches and is the only remaining of the absolute monarchs on earth while the Vatican was established by the Lateran treaty in 1929. Language and Population
All the citizens of the Vatican City live within or outside the state while others serve in the diplomatic service of the Holy See in all their embassies around the world. The citizens of the Vatican are divided into two groups the Swiss Guards and the Clergies. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/is-vatican-city-a-country.html |

Content: crime drives away businesses and investors, reducing available human capital and creating an insecure environment, which, in turn, leads to more poverty. Organized crime, like gangs and drug trafficking, also contribute to high murder rates. It is particularly true in countries like Jamaica, Honduras, and El Salvador. Organized crime is also more likely to be participated in by young males who, consequently, are also more likely to be a victim of murder. Drug and alcohol use is also related to high murder and poverty rates. Intoxication increases the risk of being involved (either as the guilty party or the victim) in a murder. Countries that are experiencing political turmoil and violent conflict are also more likely to experience high murder rates, as is the case with El Salvador, which is still recovering from its civil war. Preventive Measures To Be Taken
To reduce these climbing murder rates, governments must focus on preventive measures. Given its connection to poverty and social issues, preventive crime policies need to focus on more than just punishments. Without including economic and social development strategies in local policy, violent crimes are likely to continue. | https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/murder-rates-by-country.html |

The majority of murders throughout the Americas are committed with guns. However, this point is heavily disputed. Gun restriction proponents point to the case in Brazil, where gun access was restricted, and the murder rate dropped. Proponents for gun ownership point to the situation in Venezuela, where gun access was denied, guns were taken away, and the murder rate increased. In countries recovering from internal conflict and political instability, it is essential to reduce violence in general.
