This question has psy-chologists wondering for centuries. How do we decide if we want to spend our money on something or rather save it to spend it later on something else? What makes us wait for a re-ward rather than receiving instant gratification? Several studies have been…

described as an impulse control disorder, which does not involve use of an intoxicating drug and is very similar to pathological gambling. Video game addiction has also been referred to as video game overuse, pathological or compulsive/excessive use of computer games and/or video games. Those suffering from video game addiction may use the Internet to access massively multi-player online role-playing games (MMORPGs) and multi-user domain games (MUDs). Similar to other addictions, individuals…

results of impulse response functions analysis and variance decomposition. Afterwards, we turn to subsection 4.3 to test reliability of the VAR model. 4.1 Testing for significance and Granger-causality According to Wald test (Table 5) the hypothesis of zero coefficient before oil price variable in GDP equation is not rejected in all analysed countries except Russia. This means that Russia is the only country where oil prices effect real economic activity directly. The fact…

finds the bathroom empty. It’s then that she realizes that she is the one who is bleeding. She had stabbed herself. Nonetheless, she finishes the final act so well that the crowd doesn’t even notice the formation of the blood on her abdomen. In the final scene, the suicide scene, she’s falls off the “cliff” and lands onto the mattress. It’s here that she finally looks to be at peace. After all, she had said earlier that she thought the suicide scene was beautiful. Her final words: “I felt it.…

Harmonics that are created by non-linear devices connected to the power system. Power system harmonics are multiples integer of the fundamental power system frequency and these harmonic frequencies can create distorted voltages and currents. Distortion of voltages and currents can impact on the power system adversely causing power quality problems. Therefore, approximation of harmonics is of high importance for efficiency of the power system network to maintain the quality limits recommended by…

hair out from the roots one by one or in chunks which leaves a pile of hair next to your lap. Sound scary?

described as inputs and outputs. The relationship between the input and the output can be quantitatively described in form of a mathematical model. This description could be outlined through a parametric model which uses a group of parameters usually incorporated in a few differential equations governing the physics of the system or a non-parametric model through measurements of the system at a large number of points [35]. Parametric approach often requires an in depth knowledge of the system…

People are something Quentin can advise but not control. Quentin even used the abstraction of committing incest with his sister Caddy to pacify the anger from the boys Caddy loves. Quentin keeps reminding himself about “death at the salt licks” to tell himself that Caddy can change. Quentin used the word “death” to signify the manipulation he has on his ideas and the potential of abstractions to collapse under reality(95,102). Salt blocks are used to lure deer and in this context it is something…

Jones (George, 2011), a line manager is someone in the direct line or chain of command that has formal authority over people and resources at lower levels. Further, a staff manager is someone responsible for managing a specialist function, such as finance and marketing. At Cliq Digital the company’s structure can be seen as a line/staff management organizational structure. Authority rests in the top management as it flows…
