Domestic violence most commonly refers to violence between intimate partners where one partner seeks to control the other through assault and intimidation. Women are disproportionately affected, with statistics showing they are more likely to be injured, raped, or murdered by a male partner than any other type of attacker. Reasons domestic violence may go unreported include fears of retaliation, economic instability, and damaged self-esteem on the part of the victim. Help for victims includes law enforcement, legal aid, shelters, counseling services, and programs to help rehabilitate abusers.
Domestic violence can be present in anyone’s relationship; it is not limited by economic status, age, race, education level, or even sexual preference.

5th International Disaster and Risk Conference IDRC 2014 Integrative Risk Management - The role of science, technology & practice 24-28 August 2014 in Davos, Switzerland
Children who live with domestic violence face a high risk of exposure to traumatizing events, neglect, being directly abused, and losing one or both of their parents,
When they witness abuse at home, children also grow up anxious, fearful, and hopeless. They are often insecure and worried about the future. They are at high risk for substance abuse, dropping out of school, and the complications that come with chronic stress-related disorders.
Despite an ever-changing terrorism risk insurance market, businesses from every industry sector continue to purchase coverage—more than 60 percent of organizations surveyed by Marsh bought coverage in 2009.

Herd-Level Management Factors and Culling Rates in Québec Dairy Herds (AABP, ...dhaine
Presentation given at 2015 AABP conference in New Orleans
Relationship between longevity and health or reproductive performance at the cow level is well demonstrated in the dairy literature but this association might not hold true at the herd level. Many herd-, farm-, and cow-level components are part of the culling decision. The objectives of this study were to: 1) quantify culling rates of Québec dairy herds; and 2) investigate if Québec dairy farms could be differentiated based on herd-level factors such as management, reproduction, production and health indices, and explore their relationship with herd culling rate.
A retrospective study was conducted on data from dairy herds in Québec, Canada, by extracting their health and production data. Data were extracted for all lactations taking place between 2001 and 2011. A total of 432,733 lactations records (from 156,409 cows; 763 herds) were analyzed. Thirty herd-level variables were aggregated for each herd/year of follow-up and their relationship investigated by Multiple Factor Analysis (MFA).
The overall culling rate was 31.6% with a 95% confidence interval of [31.2, 32.1]. The explained variance for each axis from the MFA was very low (first and second axis: 13.7 and 12.6%, respectively) suggesting that there was no relationship among the groups of variables. Associations were found between culling rates and herd-level variables such as seasonality, proportion of primiparous cows, calving intervals, 21-day pregnancy rates, days to first service, and average age at first calving.
Being pregnant is a known cow-level protective factor against culling and we determined that herd reproductive performances as measured by calving intervals and 21-day pregnancy rates were associated with culling rates. However, these were the only herd-level factors associated with culling while there are many cow-level risk factors. No association was found between culling rates and herd production performances (peak production, 305d milk, fat and protein productions). The presence (and absence) of relations observed in this study stresses the significance of the peripartum period for the
herd, and the prime importance of acknowledging the discrepancy between herd- and cow-level associations. Inferences at the group level should not be based on individual-level data.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
