In addition, studies of social determinants of health have repeatedly found socioeconomic inequalities in health.
People with lower socioeconomic status (SES) have, on average, poorer health and die younger than those with more favourable SES. Socioeconomic inequalities in health persist into old age .
The results from a comparative study showe d that the magnitude of inequality in morbidity in eleven European countries varied, however, health inequalities in all age groups were observed in all countries .
As most morbidity and mortality occurs in old age, these inequalities may affect a substantial proportion of the older population and increase the economic burden of public spending as the population ages.
Also, in studies of health inequalities in later life, SES is most commonly operationalised as either education, social class, or income – and often without providing a rationale for the choice of indicator .
Lastly, the overarching aim of this study was to explore how the three most common indicators of SES (education, social class, and income) are associate d with health in old age. Attachments

Establish a budget. Whether you’re planning a corporate event or looking for product vendors to fill your store’s shelves, you must know how much you’re able and willing to spend.
Be realistic and set both an ideal budget and a maximum budget to allow yourself room to negotiate with your vendors.
Your ideal budget will be the amount of money you want to spend, and your maximum will be the absolute most you can afford.
Ask your potential vendors for a proposal or wholesale catalog, depending on your business’s needs.
More so, if you’re looking for services you will most likely require a proposal, but this may also suit your needs if you need a vendor to manufacture products.
If you’re ordering wholesale merchandise, a catalog and wholesale price list will likely suffice.

The New Negro. How does this figure differ from the “old” negro?
The New Negro. How does this figure differ from the “old” negro? To what extent does this figure correspond to an actual social type, and to what extent might it be an idealization? What might Locke’s purpose be in idealizing the new negro?
The New Negro. How does this figure differ from the “old” negro?
Write a page or so (250 words +) addressing the following questions about “The New Negro.”
Use two or three selected passages to orient or support your points: What does Locke mean by the “new” negro?
How does this figure differ from the “old” negro? To what extent does this figure correspond to an actual social type, and to what extent might it be an idealization? What might Locke’s purpose be in idealizing the new negro?
Then, consider this:
What influence do you think Locke had on the artists of the New Negro Movement? Can this influence be seen today?
What issues of importance to Locke and the New Negro Movement generally are still of concern today?
Choose lines, phrases, or passages from poems in this module that reflect your answer on Locke. If you like, you may choose lines or passages from contemporary black poets or writers that you are familiar with, as well.
Then, create a visual representation of this “constellation” of reflections on one or more “The New Negro” themes.
In other words, show the influence Locke may have had on black poetry in a visual way using an arrangement of poetic lines (don’t forget to credit each poet).
Note: this is a creative project that is anchored in what you have learned from the writing in this module, so make sure to:
1. demonstrate your critical understanding of Locke and your familiarity with the poets and poems, and . . .
2. have fun expressing your understanding visually. (Don’t worry–there is no pressure to be artistic.
This is about breaking through the conventions of learning just a bit to use different modes.)

In addition, resourceful libraries have long attracted knowledge-seekers and have played an important role in education and research.
Also, with the astonishing advances in science and technology, traditional libraries have not
remained unaffected and the concept of digital library has emerged and caused a revolution in these old institutions.
A digital library can provide access to many of the information networks around the
world, which is a necessary component of almost any research experience today.
Considering the facilities associated with a digital library, gradual replacement of traditional libraries by digital ones appears to be inevitable.
Nevertheless, as an important step in enhancement of education in Afghanistan, the concept of digital
libraries must be introduced and integrated into the country’s rapidly evolving educational system.
Additionaly, this thesis addresses the challenges existing in Afghanistan university libraries.
More so, a solution for each challenge is defined by introducing digital and automated systems and finally a scheme is provided for switching from a paper-based library system to a digital library system.

Calculate the financial ratios needed to determine your chosen business’s
In preparation for your report in Project Two, you will need to calculate the financial ratios needed to determine your chosen business’s current financial health.
Calculate the financial ratios needed to determine your chosen business’s current financial health
Overview
In preparation for your report in Project Two, you will need to calculate the financial ratios needed to determine your chosen business’s current financial health.
Once you’ve calculated these ratios, the results will be used to analyze the business’s current financial position and help them make decisions about how to improve or maintain their financial health.
Pay particular attention to working capital management. If liquidity is an issue, consider how the company will meet its short-term obligations.
Prompt
Using the Project Two Financial Formulas spreadsheet and the balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement from Mergent Online for your chosen company (Tesla), calculate the financial ratios for the most recent
fiscal quarter.
Then, compare those ratios with the same ratios for the same fiscal quarter from one year prior in Mergent Online, and analyze your results.
Specifically, you must address the following rubric criteria:
Financial Calculations: Calculate accurate financial ratios to assess the business’s current financial health.
Specifically, calculate the following ratios:
Working capital
Current ratio
Debt ratio
Earnings per share
Price/earnings ratio
Also, Total asset turnover ratio
Financial leverage
Net profit margin
Return on assets
Return on equity
More so, Fiscal Quarter Comparison: Using Mergent Online, summarize the differences between the results from your financial calculations of the most recent fiscal quarter and the results of the same financial calculations of the same fiscal quarter from a year before for your chosen business.
For example, if the most recent fiscal quarter available is the 3rd quarter in 2020, then you will compare those results to the same financial calculations from the 3rd quarter in 2019.
Comparison Analysis: Explain what the results of your calculations and your comparison indicate about the business’s current financial health, providing examples to support your explanation.
Also, you might consider the following
questions:
Additionally, do the results indicate the business is financially healthy or financially unhealthy? Which results indicate this?
Lastly, what might be the cause(s) of the business’s financial success or failure?
Is more information needed to determine the business’s financial health?
If so, which pieces of information might still be needed?

Identification and Categorization of all possible Costs and Benefits
The final report of your CBA project should have Seven
components:
(i) An Introduction (which will include the objectives of your research as well as its importance);
(ii) Standing (Whose benefits and costs to include and why?);
(iii) Identification and Categorization of all possible Costs and Benefits associated with your project; separate the benefits and costs you included in your CBA and explain why ;
(iv) Valuation of Benefits and Costs (How did you attach dollar values to the benefits and costs you’ve decided to include in your CBA?
Where do they come from? Are those reliable?);
(v) More so, Discounting: (Which discount rate did you use for your project and why? How did you calculate it?);
(vi) How did you calculate the NPV of the project?
Did you conduct a sensitivity Analysis of your results? What are
the implications of your results?), and
(vii) Summarize the key results of your research and conclude the report.

In addition, Developing an IT application is an investment. Since after developing that application it provides the organization with profits.
Also, profits can be monetary or in the form of an improved working environment.
However, it carries risks, because in some cases an estimate can be wrong. And the project might not actually turn out to be beneficial.
Cost benefit analysis helps to give management a picture of the costs, benefits and risks. It usually involves comparing alternate investments.
Also, cost benefit determines the benefits and savings that are expected from the system and compares them with the expected costs.
Lastly, the cost of an information system involves the development cost and maintenance cost.

In addition, recently, the world witnessed a significant increase in the number of used drones,
with a global and continuous rise in the demand for their multi-purpose applications.
The pervasive aspect of these drones is due to their ability to answer people’s needs.
More so, drones are providing users with a bird’s eye that can be activate d and used almost anywhere and at any time.
However, recently, the malicious use of drones began to emerge among criminals and cyber-criminals alike.
Also, the probability and frequency of these attacks are both high and their impact can be very dangerous with devastating effects.
Therefore, the need for detective, protective and preventive counter-measures is highly require d.
The aim of this survey is to investigate the emerging threats of using drones in cyber-attacks, along the countermeasures to thwart these attacks.
Also, the different uses of drones for malicious purposes are also reviewed, along the possible detection methods.
As such, this paper analyzes the exploitation of drones vulnerabilities within communication links, as well as smart devices and hardware, including smart-phones and tablets.
Moreover, this paper presents a detailed review on the drone/Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) usage in multiple domains (i.e civilian, military, terrorism, etc.) and for different purposes.

In addition, the starting point in discussing how projects should be properly manage d is to first understand what a project is and, just as importantly, what it is not.
More so, people have been undertaking projects since the earliest days of organized human activity.
Also, the hunting parties of our prehistoric ancestors were projects, for example; they were temporary undertakings directe d at the goal of obtaining meat for the community.
Large complex projects have also been with us for a long time.
The pyramids and the Great Wall of China were in their day of roughly the same dimensions as the Apollo project to send men to the moon. We use the term “project” frequently in our daily conversations.
A husband, for example may tell his wife, “My main project for this weekend is to straighten out the garage.”
Going hunting, building pyramids, and fixing faucets all share certain features that make them projects.

Describe the production route and manufacturing pathway of a biologic
Please describe the production route and manufacturing pathway of a biologic in a short presentation. (5 minutes)
More Details:
Most drugs are small. Aspirin, for instance, is made up of just 21 atoms. Small drugs like aspirin provide the majority of global revenue for brand-name drug companies. But finding new small-molecule drugs keeps getting harder, and generic drug manufacturers are quick to compete with brand-name firms once patents expire.
As a result, drug companies are increasingly turning to very large drugs: biologics produced by living cells.
In terms of size and rough complexity, if an aspirin were a bicycle, a small biologic would be a Toyota Prius, and a large biologic would be an F-16 fighter jet.
Biologics provide promising new avenues for doctors to better treat patients, and—not coincidentally—for drug companies to profit.
But making biologics is more complex than making small-molecule drugs, and that complexity raises serious challenges for innovation and competition policy in the biopharmaceutical industry.
Biologics represent attractive investment opportunities for drug companies. Spending on small-molecule drugs is close to stagnant, especially in developed countries.
In contrast, annual global spending on biologics was $93 billion in 2006, rose 69% to $157 billion in 2011, and is expect ed to rise another 30%, to between $200 billion and $210 billion in 2016.
In the United States, percentage expenditures on biologics will be even more substantial.
Indeed, some health care industry analysts predict that in the United States so-called specialty drugs—a category that overlaps substantially with biologics—will represent half of annual prescription drug spending by 2020.
To some extent, the money reflects changes in medicine: Biologics represent many of the most prominent, and promising, new treatments for cancer and other major diseases.
