Greater numbers of young children with complicated, serious physical health, mental health, or developmental problems are entering foster care during the early years when brain growth is most active. Every effort should be made to make foster care a positive experience and a healing process for the child. Threats to a child’s development from abuse and neglect should be understood by all partic...

In the present paper a generalized Lotka-Volterra food chain system has been studied and also its dynamic behavior such as locally asymptotic stability has been analyzed in case of existing interspecies competition. Furthermore, it has been shown that the said system is permanent (in the sense of boundedness and uniformly persistent). Finally, it is proved that the nontrivial equilibrium point...

Following previous studies reporting a beneficial effect for pre-task planning on learners' task performance, the present research takes into account the possible effects of directing learners' attention to meaning and form of language on their written production while they have one- and five-minute strategic planning time. The study randomly categorized 48 intermediate learners of English into...

• Incorporation of silica reduces flammability viscose fibres. Wash permanency can be improved by formation aluminium silicate. Dyeability aluminosilicate modified fibres remains unchanged. Silica residues remain during combustion and act as a barrier for oxygen. forms green approach to flame retardant textiles. Safety requirements led widespread use textile products with reduced flammability. ...

Language planning, in one way or another, is as old as human civilization. Every time that one polity  invaded  the  territory  of  another,  the  language  of  the  conqueror  was  imposed  on  the conquered. The Romans imposed their language across the civilized world as they  knew it. In the  21st  century,  the  practice  of  language  planning  has  become  increasingly  sophisticated. Eng...

this paper presents an application of benders decomposition to deal with the complexities in the simultaneous generation expansion planning (gep) and transmission expansion planning (tep). unlike the power system operation fields of study, the power system planning methods are not expected to be fast. however, it is always preferable to speed up computations to provide more analysis options for...

Researchers seldom realize 100% participation for any research study. If participants and non-participants are systematically different, substantive results may be biased in unknown ways, and external or internal validity may be compromised. Typically social work reGary Cuddeback, MSW, MPH, is Research Associate, Cecil G. Sheps Center for Health Services Research, University of North Carolina a...

in order to understand what educational planning means, it is necessary to understand what is meant by planning and what a plan is. it is from this level that we will go into the explanation of educational planning in urban planning and architecture. the finding of research shows fundamental discourse that has been surveyed in this paper. character of educational planning in urban studies concl...

Physicians handling workers compensation cases serve in a dual capacity not required of physicians treating non-workers compensation cases. Not only are they are asked to treat the workers’ injuries and disability symptoms, but they are also frequently asked to evaluate the extent of economic damage done to a worker via the assignment of an impairment rating to certain types of injuries. Althou...
