This book was written with the intention to educate those who feel as though they have been neglected with the information necessary to be financially savvy in a world where money matters. Unfortunately, these pointers, tips, and tools you will find in this book chapters are not taught in the American education curriculum. Instead, we are taught the basics of math and forced to take intricate courses such as Algebra, Trigonometry, Calculus, & Geometry. These pointless courses are required in order to graduate from high school. Even though, most will never be used throughout life unless you pursue a career in science Aviation, or Electronics. I found it very odd that this information is held back from society. With over 25 years of providing financial relief services for unsecured debt in addition to assisting students with federal student loan relief and forgiveness. I have helped resolve over a billion dollars in debt relief and now my passion is to educate and empower others through my opinion on financial literacy. Disclaimer: Please note that, I am a certified financial counseling professional. I am not a licensed financial advisor therefore my opinion on any financial topic should not be used as financial advice.

We are bombarded with statistical data each and every day, and healthcare professionals are no exception. All sectors of healthcare rely on data provided by insurance companies, consultants, research firms, and government to help them make a host of decisions regarding the delivery of medical services. But while these health professionals rely on data, do they really make the best use of the information? Not if they fail to understand whether the assumptions behind the formulas generating the numbers make sense. Not if they don’t understand that the world of healthcare is flooded with inaccurate, misleading, and even dangerous statistics. The purpose of this book is to provide members of medical and other professions, including scientists and engineers, with a basic understanding of statistics and probability together with an explanation and worked examples of the techniques. It does not seek to confuse the reader with in-depth mathematics but provides basic methods for interpreting data and making inferences. The worked examples are medically based, but the principles apply to the analysis of any numerical data.

A collection of lessons dedicated to those willing to dream the impossible while seeking the improbable, to those willing to reach for the stars when establishing their reality, to those who would accept what could be as a destination rather than being content to live life within what is, to those willing to innovate as they fulfill their dreams, to those accepting the responsibility for individual accomplishment within a world that too often rewards the accomplishments of society, to those accepting the responsibility of initiating change within a world that too often rewards stability and the status quo, to those accepting the responsibilities of leadership within a world that too often shifts blame and seeks credit, to those accepting the responsibilities of life within a world that too often rewards the way things are (or have been) rather than what they could be if only. A book of thoughts to help identify the passages that lead from here to there that give hope to those having lost their way during the journey, and a book that provides support to those in need.

This book is a guide for college students exploring career options who are interested in working to promote peacebuilding and the resolution of conflict. High school students, particularly those starting to consider college and careers, can also benefit from this book. A major feature of the book is 30 stories from young professionals, most recently graduated from college, who are working in the field. These profiles provide readers with insight as to strategies they might use to advance their peacebuilding careers. The book speaks directly to the Millennial generation, recognizing that launching a career is a major focus, and that careers in the peace field have not always been easy to identify. As such, the book takes the approach that most any career can be a peacebuilding career provided one is willing to apply creativity and passion to their work. ENDORSEMENTS: The 30 profiles and other examples of career options across disciplines in Peace Jobs should be a required resource for all high school and college career offices. Packed with valuable realistic examples of how students, from a wide array of backgrounds, connected their passion with a paid career, it answers the ever present question “but what job can I get in peacebuilding”? Jennifer Batton Co-Chair, Peace Education Working Group and Chair, North America, Global Partnership for the Prevention of Armed Conflict Coordinator, International Conference on Conflict Resolution Education If changing the world is your calling, David Smith offers the guiding framework to channel passions and talents into meaningful employment. In Peace Jobs, millennials and others can discover ways to apply their social conscience to traditional and transformative career opportunities.

Imagine if you could condense all 3.5 billion years of life on Earth into just one hour. If you did, the dinosaurs wouldn?t show up until 56 minutes into the hour, and they?d be gone three minutes later. Modern humans (the ones we are related to) would amble into view at the very end of the hour, with just 0.2 seconds to spare.

The case of the European Union''s (EU) Clean Sky initiative and its sustainable and green engine programme focuses on a sector where the implications of climate change are likely to be keenly felt in the coming decades, namely air transport. It is a sector where to date there have been few green or eco innovations. The case focuses on a current EU-funded initiative designed to limit the impact of air transport on climate change. The initiative aims to foster innovation through the introduction of open rotor technology to power the next generation of short-/medium-haul airliners. This technology could potentially cut carbon dioxide emissions from commercial aircraft by 100 million tonnes per year. However, it may also prove to be a disruptive technology rendering existing aircraft and possibly some of the firms that produce them, obsolete. As well as introducing some of the features of disruptive technologies, the case highlights both the drivers for and barriers to the successful adoption of green innovations. Another important aspect of the case is that it also highlights the value of appropriate business strategies, such as the use of technology demonstrator programmes, in supporting and facilitating the adoption and diffusion of green innovations.

Buku rohani yang diterjemahkan dari judul Asli How Can I ask God for Physical Healing?: a biblical guide oleh David J. Smith. Kata Pengantar Khusus untuk Terjemahan Indonesia How Can I Ask God for Physical Healing? (Bagaimana Aku dapat meminta Allah untuk Kesembuhan Fisik? Sebuah Panduan Alkitabiah ) oleh David J. Smith. Orang-orang kadang kala bertanya bagaimana saya memulai berdoa bagi orang lain untuk disembuhkan secara fisik. Bukan saja saya bertumbuh dalam komunitas The Christian and Missionary Alliance yang mengharapkan untuk melihat pelayanan kesembuhan Yesus yang berkelanjutan hari ini. Saya juga menyadari Tuhan bekerja melalui diri saya. Ketika saya memulai pelayanan pastoral pada awal tahun 1980-an, pada suatu hari saya bertanya kepada penatua saya, karunia rohani apa yang mereka yakini saya memilikinya. Setelah berdikusi dengan beberapa orang, salah satu penatua saya, Wayne Brewster mengatakan, “Pernahkah kamu berpikir bahwa kamu mungkin memiliki karunia kesembuhan?” Hal ini membuat saya terkejut. Hal ini bukanlah karunia rohani yang pernah saya sadari dalam kehidupan saya. Jadi saya bertanya, “Mengapa Anda berkata demikian?” Jawab Wayne: “Karena Anda berdoa bagi orang-orang, dan mereka menjadi lebih baik.” Inilah definisi sederhana kesembuhan: Anda berdoa untuk orang-orang, dan mereka menjadi lebih baik! Namun, setiap kesembuhan yang terjadi adalah karena Yesus adalah Penyembuh! Bukan saya. Bukan pula Anda. Semoga Tuhan menggunakan Anda dalam melihat orang-orang dijamah dan kehidupan mereka diubahkan. Dan biarkan jamahan tangan Sang Tuan menjamah Anda juga!Salam dalam kasih,Rev. David J. Smith Nasihat saya dalam pelayanan kesembuhan: Mendakilah melewati setiap hambatan untuk sampai kepada Yesus. Serahkanlah diri Anda dalam penyembahan di hadapan Yesus. Ekspresikanlah keyakinan di dalam kuasa Kristus untuk menjadi sembuh. Ketika berjuanglah dalam iman, mintalah kedaulatan Allah. Kenalilah misteri kesembuhan. Percayalah bahwa kematian Yesus di kayu salib untuk menyediakan bagi seluruh kebutuhan kita baik secara spiritual, fisik, maupun emosional. Temukan keseimbangan antara iman tak berbentuk dan iman yang sesat dengan iman yang benar. Sadarilah bahwa Yesus selalu ingin menunjukkan kasih dan kuasa-Nya. Perolehlah bukti yang dapat membuktikan keajaiban Allah. Bersaksilah kepada orang lain tentang apa yang telah Tuhan lakukan. Rayakanlah pelayanan Roh Kudus. Ketika Tuhan menjawab doa kami untuk kesembuhan, Tuhan mendapatkan pujian. Dan ketika kita berdoa untuk kesembuhan dan belum melihat apa yang telah kita minta, kita masih memiliki sebuah perjumpaan dengan Tuhan Yesus Kristus.

A revised edition of the fascinating and thought-provoking multi-award-winner and international bestseller.

We investigate whether the capital structure of New Zealand firms influences their product-market performance in the period from 1984 to 2008. Our main findings are that the use of leverage by publicly listed New Zealand companies leads to an increase in relative-to-industry sales growth, but a decrease in relative-to-industry return on assets (ROA). We also conduct a reverse causality test by examining whether sales growth and ROA influence leverage. We find no evidence that sales growth has an impact on the use of debt, but significant evidence that ROA is negatively correlated with its use. Our results suggest that New Zealand firms use debt to compete more aggressively in their product markets, even though this strategy comes at a cost of lower relative-to-industry profitability. A possible explanation for this behaviour is the more competitive trading environment that has developed in New Zealand over the last 25 years.
