An investigation analyzed the relationship between population growth rates and GDP rates in 50 randomly selected countries from 2009 to 2010. Population and GDP data from 2009 and 2010 was collected and used to calculate growth rates for each country. A chi-squared test was performed to determine if there was a statistically significant relationship between population growth and GDP rates at the 5% significance level. The results of the chi-squared test were then compared to critical values to determine if the null hypothesis could be rejected or not.

This document summarizes key trends in internet and mobile usage from a presentation given on May 30, 2012. It finds that while internet and mobile adoption continues to grow rapidly globally, mobile monetization faces challenges. Specifically, mobile advertising rates and revenues per user are significantly lower than desktop levels, constraining revenue growth for companies like Google and Facebook as mobile usage increases. However, mobile traffic and app revenues are also growing quickly, suggesting substantial monetization potential if these gaps can be closed.
The document discusses trends in internet and mobile device usage from 2012. It notes that global internet users grew by 8% in 2011 to over 2 billion, with most growth occurring in emerging markets like China and India. Mobile adoption was also rising rapidly, with over 1 billion global 3G subscribers by late 2011, though this still only represented 18% of mobile users. The iPad saw much faster adoption than the iPod or iPhone, shipping over 70 million units within its first 8 quarters. Android phone adoption was even more rapid than the iPhone.

Bridges over Times and Cultures 2012 - 2014
Bridges are structures built to span obstacles like bodies of water, valleys, and roads in order to allow continuous travel over them. Bridges can be made of various materials like wood, stone, iron, or steel, and take different forms such as suspension bridges, drawbridges, and covered bridges. Some key bridges mentioned are the Golden Gate Bridge spanning the San Francisco Bay, the Ponte Vecchio bridge over the Arno River in Florence, and London's Tower Bridge which has a drawbridge over the Thames River.
This document discusses different types of bridges. It defines a bridge as a structure built over a road, railway, river, or other passageway to allow people or vehicles to cross between two locations. Some of the bridge types discussed include suspension bridges, which are made of cables; arch bridges, often built over rivers; covered bridges, which protect the passageway from weather; and moon bridges, small bridges situated in parks or gardens for pedestrians. Pictures are provided to illustrate the different bridge designs.
This document discusses delivering clinical knowledge and guidance directly into healthcare workflows through clinical decision support (CDS). CDS aims to provide clinicians and patients with intelligently filtered, situation-specific information to enhance patient care. The goal is to repurpose existing clinical content from various sources and deliver the most precise and useful information for each workflow and information need. Physician information needs were analyzed from query data to develop an ontology of needs. Content is curated, indexed as discrete facts, and tailored for specific situations by matching it to patient data, workflows, and information needs. Knowledge delivery aims to integrate actionable tools and options directly into clinical systems like EHRs.
"Bridges" is a PowerPoint for primary and secondary students that provides an overview of the different types of bridges and their uses. It also highlights careers in infrastructure development specific to bridge building and maintenance. Additionally, this lesson can be paired with a "Bridge Building" activity.

Argentina produces approximately 44,800 tons of raisins annually, with 95% grown in the province of San Juan and the remainder in neighboring provinces. Raisins are grown on alluvial soils under flood or drip irrigation supplied by snowmelt water from the Andes mountains. Common varieties include Flame Seedless, Fiesta, Thompson Seedless, and Arizul. Grapes are trucked to drying yards with mesh trays and dried for 10-20 days before export, primarily to Brazil, the US, and EU countries.
