The document provides population statistics for several cities and towns in Spain. It notes that the world population grew slowly until the 17th century due to epidemics, but then increased in the 18th century due to advances in medicine. In the 20th century, there was a demographic explosion. It then lists the population and area sizes for several municipalities, calculates their population densities, and concludes that Barcelona has the highest density at 15,000 inhabitants/km2, followed by Premia de Mar at 14,000 inhabitants/km2.
This document lists the names of 5 fitness tracking apps: Endomondo, Map my tracks, RunKeeper, Runtastic, and Sport tracker. These apps allow users to track their fitness activities such as running, biking, and workouts.
This document discusses diagnosing respiratory tract infections (RTIs) like pneumonia. It summarizes that Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae are leading causes of pneumonia. Current diagnostic tests have limitations and most pneumonia patients are prescribed antibiotics unnecessarily, contributing to antibiotic resistance. The document promotes the Binax NOW test, which can rapidly diagnose S. pneumoniae and Legionella pneumonia from urine samples in 15 minutes with good sensitivity and specificity. This provides a simple, non-invasive alternative to slow and insensitive tests like culture and PCR for diagnosing major causes of community-acquired pneumonia.
The Progressive movement aimed to address inequality and corruption in the U.S. through government, business, and social reforms led by Theodore Roosevelt and other reformers in the early 1900s. Key reforms included establishing a federal income tax, breaking up monopolies, implementing child labor laws and women's suffrage, and creating national parks. Muckrakers in the press helped expose problems and push for these reforms to create a fairer and healthier society.
The document discusses standards, certification, and assessment in software development. It outlines the benefits of applying standards such as better coordination between teams and cooperation between developers and external partners. It then describes some major organizations involved in standards development like IEEE, ISO, DOD, ANSI, IEC, and EIA. Finally, it classifies standards into two categories: QA management standards like ISO 9000-3 and CMM; and project process standards which define steps for documentation, design reviews, and testing.

Software testing is a formal process carried out by a specialized team to examine software by running programs on a computer. The goals are to identify errors, bring the software to an acceptable quality level after corrections, and perform tests efficiently within budget and schedule. There are two main types of testing: black box focuses on functionality without considering internal structure, while white box considers internal mechanisms. Black box testing is further divided into operation, revision, and transition factor classes that test different aspects like output correctness, documentation, reliability, and more.
The business plan summary outlines Melvin Johnson's metal recycling business called Metal Recycle Management. The summary states that Johnson will collect and distribute recyclable materials through his full circle recycling business as an LLC. His mission is to make recycling convenient for communities in Mid-Missouri. The target markets are industrial, residential, and government organizations. Johnson sees an opportunity due to low competition and public interest in improving recycling. Financial projections estimate $40,000 in startup costs, $5,840 in average monthly expenses, and $14,512 in average monthly revenue.
This document lists and describes the author's favorite foods from Korean, Japanese, Thai, and Vietnamese cuisines to eat, including soft tofu stew, bibimbap, various sushi rolls, spicy papaya salad, pad Thai noodles, and several popular instant noodle brands. References are provided with links to articles about traditional foods from each culture.
The Progressive Era was a period of social activism and political reform in the United States that spanned from the 1890s to the 1920s. Caused by cultural decline, muckrakers exposing issues, and economic changes from industrialization, progressives fought for reforms addressing issues like corruption, child labor, women's suffrage, and prohibition. Key leaders included Theodore Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, and Robert LaFollette. Roosevelt proposed a New Nationalism with trust busting and consumer protections. Wilson advocated a New Freedom through antitrust acts and the Federal Reserve. Women and African Americans also led important reform movements during this era of social change.
Between 1877-1914, around 10 million immigrants came to the United States from Europe, many from southeastern Europe like Italy and Eastern Europe. They were drawn by economic opportunities and pushed by factors like overpopulation and crop failures in Europe. Most settled in large cities where cultural communities had already formed and jobs were available. However, native-born Americans began to view the new immigrants more negatively due to fears they were taking jobs and social/political tensions. This led to calls for immigration restrictions and the establishment of groups like the Immigration Restriction League that advocated for literacy tests and quotas to limit immigration.
The document summarizes a multi-part differential equations word problem about snow plows clearing roads during a snowstorm.
1) It reviews the standard snow plow problem and defines the variables and equations used. 2) It then solves the initial problem to determine when the snow started. 3) Additional parts of the problem address when two snow plows starting from different locations would crash into each other and if changing start times could prevent crashes. Equations are derived and solved to determine crash times and minimum separation distances between plows.
Metal Recycle Management, LLC is a recycling company that collects and processes post-consumer plastics, cardboard, and metals. It plans to collect these materials from local businesses and communities in Springfield, Missouri. The materials will be sorted, shredded, washed, and baled at the company's facility before being sold to brokers. The company is seeking $65,000 in startup capital to purchase equipment like a baler and shredder, cover three months of operating expenses, and implement its collection and processing operations. It expects to process around 33,000 pounds of material per month initially.
This document discusses the key components of software quality assurance (SQA). It outlines pre-project quality components like contract reviews and quality plans. It also describes project life cycle components such as reviews, testing, maintenance and quality assurance. Additionally, it discusses infrastructure components for error prevention like procedures, training and configuration management. The goal is to organize SQA efforts and ensure quality throughout the software development life cycle.
