Math anxiety is acknowledged by psychologists around…

released Qlab. Created for the range of Apple MacBook computers, Qlab, did a very similar job to that of SFX. However, according to Matthew Glenn from the University of California, Irvine “Qlab simplifies the interface allowing for a speedier learning curve and faster workflow processes.” The main strength of Qlab is that it can handle many types of multimedia and playback up to 48 channels per sound card.

Women’s activist Marilyn Loden derived the phrase “glass ceiling” in 1978. A metaphor for the barrier that keeps women from rising beyond a certain level in a hierarchy, this phrase served as an inspiration for women apart of the second and third wave feminism movements. In particular, women experience a glass ceiling within the workplace, as women are unable to achieve higher-up positions within their specific field of work. Even further, those who do manage to secure a rank equal to their male…

This is what befell the popular Snapple brand almost as soon as Quaker Oats bought the beverage marketer for $1.7 billion in 1994.
