Ooh the depth of literary riches, how terrific they are! In less than 40 hours time, our sister- J. K. Rowling would roll into her 40th birthday anniversary (on the 31st July). While making no pretences of any private relationship with her, or knowledge of, how she intends to mark her arrival at the proverbial ‘land of milk and honey’. I am using this article to invite all writers to celebrate this ambassador of our profession -the PEN FAMILY, by posting a copy or just say something to appreciate this God’s gift in our midst.

Don’t mistake me for a Pottermaniac, I am not one anyway,in fact, I have never read any of her books, but I am a virtue-manic. I believe in virtue, as a gift deposit in man by God, to conquer our environment and circumstances. This is what this our sister has demonstrated in 8 years, and has complemented this by unspeakable humility and soberity. She arose from the trauma of being a victim of many personal misfortunes and arrived as a Victor in fortune. With her God-given gift, she has built a name and ‘Castle-of-Respects’ for writers worldwide in 8 years.

I am making this appeal so we can project a heroine figure for our profession. If we lack heroes and heroines, we would be threateed by woes. If we lack one whose testimony inspires us to achievement, then, we would be prone to expire. It is the ‘Hellos’ of Heroes that inspire society, with pride, to move forward, even with phenomenal speed.

Are you still searching for heroines? You have one already as your sister in this profession! Join me in sending ‘Mummy Jessy’ a billion tributes in advance of her 40th in less than 40 hours time. As you do this, receive, I pray thee, the stamina, speed and grace to rewrite the story of your own personal misfortunes too.

Aderemi Ojikutu (Aderaskeey) is a Motivational Author and Youth Mentor. He is a minister of the Word of God. A political economist and political leader. He is President of the TREASURE WRITERS CLUB in Nigeria (http://ryze.com/go/Aderaskeey). He is also the current President of the National Democratic Forum (N.D.F). He was National Mobilisation Officer of the National Association of Nigerian Students (N.A.N.S) for several years. A revolutionary of over two decades, he was also the political secretary of the defunct Nigerian Labour Party in 1989-1991.

Around my twentieth birthday life became a series of incredible events. Perhaps in retrospect it has never ended. I was living on my own with other guys in houses where partying was the rule and bars were meant to be closed. I had started reading Eastern mysticism and was heavy into music after years of boredom in school. It seemed like the world was much more interesting in every aspect of life’s potentials. I wasn’t making much money as an apprentice accountant but I was getting lots of parking tickets. I had just met a woman seven years my senior by the name of Myrna, when I went to the Don Jail for my second visit that year. The policeman asked me if I’d like him to take me in Friday late, so they would have to let me out the same night.

“No, I loved it the last time. I learned more in two days in jail than a whole year in school. But thanks a lot; I do appreciate your kindness.”

“You are definitely different!”

“So are you!”

Myrna had gone to California to spend three weeks vacation with a Salvation Army Major friend of hers and their family. We had not really made love and her divorce was being finalized, so I had time on my hands. The week before I went to jail, a really freaky thing happened when I went to a party in Clarkson. It was a hundred miles from Myrna’s home in Bay Ridges. I had been at her Bay Ridges home with her before she moved. I walked into this bachelor pad and saw Myrna’s collage hanging on the wall. I pointed to it and told my friend Joe; “That looks just like Myrna’s.”

Under the picture was seated a man who gave me a glare and I suddenly realized it was her husband Jim. She had told me he was a violent man and that she had been afraid he might use his shotgun if he had caught us when we were at her house. It was such a co-incidence I couldn’t believe it. I went to Barry Cunningham who was living there and he started to tell me about it before I even asked.

“Does he know?” I asked before deciding to stay.

“Not yet. He is a bit of a hot head… This is pretty ‘far out’, eh Bob? He’ll never believe a kid like you is with Myrna. Frankly it is a little hard for the rest of us to figure out too.”

Barry enjoyed making fun of me, but never really believed anything I said, so I had learned to smile and shine him on.

My first time in jail had included frank discussions with some very diverse people. The prison was totally full and I was put in the hospital ward with 31 other people. One of them was on his way to the ‘big house’ for his second murder. Another was a professional thief in his early forties who had spent most of his life in prison, but enjoyed it. He was extremely fit and worked out all the time in prison. His philosophy was he could steal a lot of money when he was out, and take good care of his family who had a nice home. With no education and free food and board in jail every couple of years he thought he was doing better than most. He never hurt anyone and figured the people he stole from had insurance. Another man discussed how he had turned into a homosexual because he wasn’t able to handle the pressure of pleasing a woman. I told him that it sure would be good if sexual dynamics were taught to everyone. My own experience was close to non-existent but I knew I would be a good lover. However, Myrna had told me on the night she left when I tried to please her that I hadn’t succeeded. She was averse to cunnilingus and I was certain it would get better, but I couldn’t really help him out. Everyone loved to tell me their life stories and this perturbed a younger guy who was in for two months on a drug possession charge. He was the ward trusty and had a knife. He came at me brandishing the knife while the other guys were teaching me bridge.

The murderer stood up and glowered at the thin young man as he advanced towards me. “You! Stay in the corner or lose your life!”

It was amusing to see this man who was older than me cower and shiver in the corner until dinner. He never really recovered during the rest of the time I was there. Another man who no one ever talked to was kept drugged. He was a big black person with muscles like a football player. His case was something everyone else talked about though.

It had taken nine guards to subdue him one time when he was conscious. I was told he threw them off his back like they were little kids. His mind apparently operated in a high hormone state. He also was a sleepwalker. Late on the first day, a man was brought in to the ward who had just returned from Venezuela. He had loaned his car to a friend who had left him with about $400 worth of tickets. He was a professional man who feared everyone else there and stuck close to me. I was about six foot and two hundred and ten pounds with a good physique. His reasons were numerous, and fear would have been his companion regardless of where he was. He stayed on the bunk above me. As we went to sleep the black man got up and came directly to him. I think fear is something animals and people alike can sense. When I woke just before sun-up the man who had been in the bunk above me was gone. Everyone had a good laugh thinking about how he had rattled the bars and paid his way out, rather than deal with the sleepwalker who was reportedly gay.

The second time I was in the ‘Don’ turned out to be one of the most important events in my life. I was shown into a cell with about twelve single beds and no bunk beds. The prison pipes were alive with the news of my return. It is nice to be remembered but sad that so many people find it necessary to spend so much time in jail. The truth is that jail is safer than the shelters and more interesting than the group homes. Stealing something for throwing a brick through a store window and taking something you need often doesn’t result in jail. Sometimes it leads to having money to get drunk with your friends or better things. They don’t seek to put drugs down your throat or alienate you with religious dogma and/or analyze you to see if they can make you part of a drug program that removes your libido and zest for life either. Some prisoners and ’street people’ are actually smart enough to see that this benefits some rich drug pushers in the psychiatric and drug complex too.

I found that people in jail like to be treated with respect and know that their opinion is valued and they can teach smart young ‘yuppies’ too. If there is one key word in relationships, I was learning that might be RESPECT! No one tries to force someone to do something they don’t want to do when they share respect, I think. It made me learn a lot about sales and how to become close to new people as well. Fear was definitely the opposite ingredient. I don’t know how many people in the supposed real world have as high an ethical or ‘brotherhood’ component as these friends I made in jail. I even began to wonder if I was in the ‘big house’ whether I would be able to charm enough people to make it so that I wouldn’t have had to offer up my anal virginity or worse. Fortunately my life hasn’t made this point clear to me yet.

As I walked to the bed that was to be mine I noticed a book on the floor. It was a compendium of existentialist authors! Sometimes I would answer the often asked question ‘What religion are you?’ with the high sounding phrase ‘I’m a French Atheistical Existentialist.’ during this time in my life. I definitely wasn’t into some man-made or projected GOD! They call this anthropomorphing in some academic circles. I was surprised to see this book along with some other intellectual books on the floor of the bed next to the late twenties man who looked a lot like Cat Stevens.

“Are you reading this?” I asked after I settled on my bed.

“Just refreshing myself. I’ve read it two or three times before.”

“What are you doing here?”

“Fifteen days.”

“What for?” I asked with genuine interest.

“It doesn’t matter really. Let’s just say they called it assault.” I sensed it might have been a female/male conflict and knew he didn’t want to talk about it.

“So what is a clean cut looking military man like you doing in jail? I thought the cops liked to give their own a break.”

“I am an officer in the Militia and an accountant but I don’t do the army thing anymore. I kinda wish I could let my hair down like you. I’m a hippie at heart.”

“Followers and flower children in the most part. Just do what makes sense; it’ll stand you in good stead.” The late twenties or early thirties man that I was drawn to, said wisely.

“Yes, I certainly do that. I like Sartre’s saying ‘Love is absent space.” He didn’t respond and I really wanted him to talk with me. “So, you’ve led a very interesting life, haven’t you?”

“They want you at the bars. Who are you? I heard something on the pipes that sounded like ‘the guy who loves jail is back’; is that you?”

I went to the bars at the front of the cell and talked to an older guy who had been in the hospital ward a couple of months earlier. I barely remembered having talked to him, but he was the retired guy who would throw a brick through a store window and sometimes wait for the police to bring him to jail. He told me that about seven people I knew who were back in jail. They wanted me to know they remembered me. I thanked him heartily and shook his hand through the bars with both of mine. I told him to thank the other people for their having remembered me and that I could have avoided jail by doing what the cop had offered. He knew that the others would like the fact that I valued what I had learned and experienced that much. As I walked back to my bed I smiled a lot. I knew I had made the right decision to let life bring me whatever was waiting for me, it felt like another good thing was about to happen.

“So, my name is Bob Baird. I’m here for the weekend and yes, I am the guy who loves jail. I don’t believe in paying parking tickets for unmarked zones, and there is no other place to park near where I have lived. More illegal taxation without representation.”

“Maybe we should have another tea party?

“Are you from the States?”

“No. But I spend a lot of time there. I am an actor and writer.”

“What’s your name?”

“I use different names. Kyle Edwards or Ed Kyle – Whatever you like!”

“Kyle. I like that! So you are a writer. I’ve written some thoughts about the dimensions of energy that surround us and even a sort of journal/biography but I know I can do a lot better.”

“It is a real craft that requires a lot of dedication and a tough skin to handle all the rejection. I’m working on one right now, in my head.”

It was fifteen minutes later that I realized I had been working on his book with him. He said very little and listened with no particular sense of amazement that I was reading his mind. I had read all there was on ESP and parapsychology but still didn’t accept it was a fact without personal experience. It was a watershed event for me.

“Say Kyle why don’t you read my mind. I’ve almost finished your book. Can you do that too?”

“Sure, it just takes a little trust and willingness to make a mistake now and then.”

He waited for a minute then began to give me advice on sex and my relationship with Myrna. It was very specific and somewhat embarrassing for him to know how inexperienced I was. That would have been enough to say that my trip to jail had been better than the last time. Much more was to transpire as a result of Kyle and his influence. It is only recently that I have a better idea of the extent of it. That is thirty years of thought. I hope the reader takes a little less time to accept the possibility of these things. However, I expect some people will reject the possibility or be left saying the same things I had said before this ESP event. I need to experience it myself!

That kind of skepticism is fine, if the mind doesn’t seize up and deny its’ powers of observation and relationship with the soul. Before I say what it was that makes this such an important event in my whole life let me tell you some more about Kyle; who I stuck to like a leech the whole time I was there that weekend. He didn’t want to tell me how to get in touch with him after I left. I am sure he was a little worn out by my enthusiastic pursuit of his wisdom. Some of what he told me was too incredible to put my mind around. Don’t be afraid to admit you feel the same way, and yet don’t close the mind to the possibility. That is all I have asked the thousands of people I have shared this event with over the last thirty years. Kyle had been a paraplegic at the age of five. One day in his Quebec home with his nurse in attendance, a fire truck went by.

“Kyle look it’s a fire reel!”

He rose from his wheelchair to her absolute surprise. Later at the age of eight or nine years old he participated in the Canadian National Diving Championships. He won the junior and intermediate title and was allowed to compete with the seniors. In the process of this competition he banged his head on the platform. The X-rays showed that he was a paraplegic, the doctor ordered a new set and they maintained a close scrutiny to ensure no further foul up happened. The new X-rays were identical. Kyle never graduated from high school yet he became a teacher in the prairies. He was an animal trainer and his description of his ability to relate with animals was something I had read about and Crocodile Dundee did with animals in the movie which came out two or so decades later. This is the key ingredient in the rest of this story. I guess that sounds a little like the radio host Paul Harvey.

When I left the ‘Don’, I saw a cat near the sidewalk ahead of me. It was an orange and white tabby that didn’t move out of my way nor did it come for rubs from my outstretched hand. It winked at me with one eye and I received a flash of enlightenment. The knowledge of what exists in the lowest form of life is ruled by the same principles and rules that impact the more complex creatures. Knowledge is not comprised of words or logical constructs and when fully integrated it appears quite simple. That is the nature of principles. Seeing or feeling the white light in Yoga has an element of this, as does the Near Death Experience. This was more than that!

In a mere fifteen seconds my head was filled. I may only have been able to incorporate a small portion of what it offered yet it seemed almost to be the kind of divine illumination that many ecstatic religions report. It was something I pondered upon for many years. My current attitude about it is that it was not the level of knowledge that I would have gotten at the most complex level of life, but rather one or more steps beneath that. James Redfield’s book the Celestine Prophecy told a nice story that incorporates the knowledge of the Enneagrams. Around the early 1920’s Jesuit priests brought this knowledge out of Persia. It is probably related to the Magi of Zoroaster and the three wise men of the Bible.

The field of law is a vast arena of rules and regulations but one key player; the paralegal is surprisingly exempt from one rule. Paralegals, after decades of existence are still not required to become “certified”. Clearly, it made sense backs in the 1960s when the profession first evolved out of a need for attorneys to free up their time from doing the “less lawyerly” activities like filling out documents, standard research and other office related paperwork. But you would think over the ensuing years that this would have been “corrected” but for some reason it has not. On the other hand, the marketplace has changed and more and more employers are now requiring that potential employees gain some type of certification before they will be considered for employment.

Intrinsic fundamental yardsticks to be aware of when assessing any paralegal program:

1. Paralegal schools should educate students with the primary objective being to development the entire student. This needs to be done by teaching usable, sensible workforce skills alongside a solid core of legal theory. The curriculum should encompass topics like torts and legal contracts, legal writing and contracts, litigation and legal research. Organizational and communication skills must be developed in addition to a student’s capacity to think critically and apply the legal theory into real world situations. A high quality paralegal school will also provide the opportunity to learn through programs like an internship or clinical experience.

2. Who put together and who is running the paralegal program at the paralegal school you are committing your future career too? Do the teachers and the “dean” of the paralegal department have the required educational and field distinction you feel comfortable with? Are they considered “experts” in the subjects they are teaching or at least, do they have the experience and references to be top notch?

3. An expanding number of paralegal schools are now offering online paralegal training. Although becoming more popular among students due to convenience, cost and flexibility you still have to ask yourself, “Is it right for me?” However, before you can make that decision you should probably find out how much interaction takes place between the instructors and students and how is the instruction presented to the students. Is interactive video used, tele-courses or some other form of delivery system?

Even if long term you have aspirations to become an attorney, beginning your career in law as a paralegal is a smart first step. Becoming a paralegal will enable you to get your foot in the door of the legal field, which will open up additional opportunities whether you decided to pursue your law degree or continue to work as a paralegal. Regardless, a paralegal career offers countless opportunities.

Environmental Pollution

1. Damage to The Ozone Layer Causes Radiation Pollution

The hole in the ozone layer above the North Pole is becoming larger, allowing large volumes of ultraviolet radiation to fall directly on the Earth’s surface, causing destruction and harm to humanity, and resulting in skin cancer and other bodily ailments. At the same time, it reduces the rate at which green plants photosynthesise, thereby reducing oxygen content in the atmosphere.

This has extreme negative effects on the Earth. Health organisations all over the world are continuously researching on ways of reducing such harmful effects on humanity. In a direct attempt to address the issue, many are actively looking into the effects of radiation, and taking measures to rectify the situation, such as through modifying the coolant compartments in automobiles and refrigerators, and setting up new guidelines for certain products.

2.Acid Rain

The emission of pollutants and toxic gases into the atmosphere has resulted in chemical reactions, which cause acid rain. Acid rain damages the environment by, for example, corroding the metals we use in car doors and buildings. It also harms human health; the first sign of prolonged exposure to acid rain is the onset of skin ailments.

3.Agro-Chemicals

Many of the agricultural products, which we consume regularly, are sprayed with chemical pesticides that are harmful to humans. Some of these products may reach the consumer before an interval of time that is necessary for them to be safe and fit for human consumption. Consumers may unwittingly purchase these quick-to-the-market agricultural products, still tainted with chemicals, and expose their family to the harmful effects of these pesticides. Prolonged accumulation of these chemicals can cause irreversible damage to our health.

4. The Contamination of Western Medicine

Frequently, we see a new phenomenon. Whether is it among a family member or in the office, as soon as someone catches a cold or cough, it will inevitably spread quickly to someone else. Besides the highly contagious nature of the virus, the body’s low resistance to viruses also plays a part. The abusive use of antibiotics has resulted in viruses’ resistance to medicines as well as deterioration of the human body’s immunity system. The rates of contagious diseases are thus on the rise.

Air Pollution

Rapid worldwide industrialisation has increased the daily emission of toxic waste and gases. Vehicle exhaust fumes and dust are increasingly trapped in our environment and this is exacerbated in densely populated cities where smog blankets and traps polluted air.

Tobacoo Smoke（Public Places）

The harmful effects of nicotine found in tobacco smoke are well documented. Passive smokers who are exposed to tobacco smoke in public places can also suffer from the same ill effects as smokers themselves – lung diseases, damages to our brain cells, heart problems, strokes, poor blood circulation and high blood pressure are some of the more well known illnesses associated with tobacco smoke.

Indoor Air Pollution

On average, we spend 80% of our time indoors. The high cost of living and pressure for space have resulted in smaller living areas, with a higher tendency of congestion and poorer ventilation. Coupled with an enclosed indoor environment, these living conditions often come with pollutants such as cigarette smoke, dust, fungi and spores, droppings from dust mites, chemicals from photocopying machines and construction materials (glue, paint) and smoke from cooking. Sustained exposure to these elements can cause cancer, respiratory ailments such as asthma, hypersensitive rhinitis, hypersensitive dermatitis, and deterioration of the immune system.

1. Cooking Smoke (Kitchen and Restaurant)

Research reveals that cooking a meal is equivalent to smoking six cigarettes. Although the proportion of women in China who smoke is small, the mortality rate of these women who suffer from pulmonary diseases is high. Epidemiologists suggest that there is a strong correlationship between this and the inhalation of smoke and oily fumes while cooking.

2. Recycling of Accumulated Carbon Dioxide (Office and Bedroom)

Prolonged inhalation of carbon dioxide in an enclosed or badly ventilated office can result in fatigue and lack of concentration among office workers. Fatigue felt after a long journey in the car is also similarly caused by poor circulation of air where there is insufficient oxygen to replace the carbon dioxide.

3. Bacteria and Fungus Found Living In Air Conditioners (Office Buildings, Hospitals, Homes, etc)

It is essential to clean the filters of all air-conditioning systems regularly, be it centralised or single units. Filth in the units will lead to the growth of micro-organisms which will flow into the room through the inlet duct when the air-conditioner is switched on. Many cases of asthma today is closely related to allergy to these micro-organisms.

4. Air Pollution by Chenical Substances (Home, Office)

The scents and odours of household products like insecticides, detergents, deodorisers, mosquito coils, hair gels, hair sprays, glue, correction fluid, calcium carbonate, etc, are sometimes unhealthy. They may even be cancer-causing.

The Change in Lifestyle

1. Changes In Diet

In the modern diet, chemical additives occupy nearly 65% of all daily food content. In addition, fashionable trends in fast food resulted in people taking in excessive animal fats and food with high cholesterol contents. Such changes in eating habits resulted in people consuming too much unhealthy products and thus health is affected.

2. Lack of Exercise

Oxygen is important to the body. With exercise, oxygen will help to strengthen cardiac and lung functions. Exercise will also help to burn excess fats and reduces intravascular LDL ( low density lipoprotein cholesterol) to prevent arteriosclerosis. Exercising will benefit the health but when done excessively, it will result in hypoxia and overproduction of free radicals causing physiological imbalance.

3. Mental Stress

Changes in the present living environment: reductions in natural greens making way for the metropolis jungle, inter-personal relationships becoming increasingly superficial. As life’s pressures build up, so does stress in the workplace. The world of feelings and EQ succumb to imbalance. Many modern people suffer from the sickness of melancholy and this constitutes another concern of living in the modern society.

The Origin of Virus and Allergy

Man’s endless devastation to Mother Nature has resulted in severe environmental pollutions, and nature is reacting. The constant mutation of bacteria and virus variations, coupled with the bustle of world trade, has lent favor to virus broadcast. With developments in aviation and frequent travel, viruses are being disseminated at lightning speed across the globe. Strange illness abound, the pace of medical research cannot keep up with the unexpected speed of viral mutation. Plagues continue to endanger lives of humans and livestock. Life on earth is seriously threatened.

In addition, while most allergies do not endanger life, they can cause a person to live unhealthily or become unhappy. An example is dust allergy. Asia has the world’s highest incidences of asthma, 90% of such cases arises due to dust allergy. The common symptoms of dust allergy include: habitual early morning sneezes, running nose, blocked nose, cough, rhinitis, asthma, allergic conjunctivitis and uncommon dermatitis.

The above-mentioned issues constitute factors that threaten the survival of humanity, cause deterioration of health and increase mental stress, leading to unhealthy and unhappy lives.

After an full-clad search over the reasons behind the maximum school dropouts, a consistency was found in the answers of the majority of the participants pointing towards Algebra. The proficiency of knowledge of the tutor is not merely sufficient for pupils to comprehend the algebraic concepts, nor it is adequate to rekindle interest about the subject. It’s the way; the subject matter is explained to its students which contributes a lot for developing interest in the discipline matters.

What is it?

A concise introduction of Algebra would be a subdivision of mathematics which substitutes letters for numbers; algebraic equation is a scale. The basic concepts of algebra includes real numbers, complex numbers, matrices and vectors.

The Different Areas

Algebra in general addresses a lot of areas. Some that are worth mentioning are Multiplying exponents, dividing exponents, Solving complex equations, Finding Greatest common factor or GCM, Multiplying, Adding, Subtracting fractions and many more.

If these areas have scared you, then I must give you some definitions which will really alleviate the situation and give you the real inwardness of algebra.

Exponents are just shorthand for referring multiplication of identical factors. Fractions are equally interesting and actually are used when representing numbers that describe the parts of a whole. Similarly there are other areas too in algebra which are scary by name but equally interesting by their definition and function. To state a few more – Mixed numbers , Quadratic formula , Graphing linear inequalities, solving compound in equalities, Factoring binomials, and Factoring polynomials; are all algebraic expressions.

Although you may find it perplexing to understand mixed numbers, you may be startled to find out that they are a type of fractions. Similarly, graphing linear equalities may be self explanatory and there are many other similar algebraic expressions that may sound complex but are extremely interesting to work with.

How to Find a Tutor

If you are curious in exploring the world of algebraic expressions yet do not have a tutor to help you in the operation, do not worry since online lessons will come for your rescue. These lessons emphasize the practicalities instead of technicalities, demonstrating safe techniques. The algebra solver software can guide you stepwise in solving your maths problems and it can also provide explanations of all steps.

Algebra as a Science

Algebra is thought a primary subdivision of maths which puts the light on how to manage all situations involving numbers and variables. Naturally and historically, there is so much to articulate about teaching and learning of Algebra as a generalized arithmetic which goes through systematic mathematical procedures such as induction, generalization and proof. So, bit by bit, pupils get several ways to enhance their Algebra level, for example by getting the information from tutors or packages, which provide stepwise illustrative solutions. Algebra software systems provide all the previously used approaches of Algebra learning with a new technological touch to drive the information smoothly into the pupil’s heads. Many students don’t even know how very useful Algebra is! They complain about its impracticality ignoring that Algebra, broadly maths, instructs their mind how to think logically and correctly. The school is the most conventional way of finding about algebra, from being a kid till becoming an adult students get their lessons from the teacher. With the advancement of engineering science, new techniques have been institutionalized to learn Algebra, such as using packages which is a more convenient way to learn Algebra. It’s a kind of gradual tool to have the information delivered to student’s heads.

Algebra’s Addressed Area

Like most major scientific disciplines, A lot of domains are handled by algebra including many theories and constructs. Gcf, or Greatest Common Factor , is one such constructs. Gcf means to rewrite the polynomial as a product of simpler polynomials or of polynomials and monomials. Other referred area is solving fractions which enables an individual to get a simplified result. non-linear function represents any function which is a solution of a quadratic polynomial. Among other important factors of algebra , multiplying and dividing radicals is also one of the fundamental ones. An individual can multiply and divide with radicals only if the index, or root, is the same. Other connected areas are Adding and Subtracting Radicals; an individual can add or subtract radical terms only if both the index and the radicand are the same. Matrix operations include adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing. Other significant areas are finding x-intercept of a line and y-intercept of a line – to get the x-intercept of a line, substitute zero for y in the equation and vice versa for finding y-intercept of a line.

One of the items commonly toward the very bottom of the pile whilst planning a college education is health insurance for college students. In general, most students don’t consider how they will cope with insurance needs. Teenagers are likely to believe that they are immortal and naturally they will never become ill.

Unluckily, no matter how fit an individual is it is no way to ensure their continuing good health. A health insurance policy isn’t a good idea, it’s utterly necessary.

Individuals who are covered by their parent’s medical insurance are in the main covered up until they turn twenty-three. For individuals who do not currently have cover through their parent’s policy, a crucial part in planning for college has to be researching an appropriate medical insurance plan.

What should you look for in an insurance plan for college students? So what is your deductible? It’s an annual amount you must pay before any medical benefits starting, very like an auto insurance policy. For example, if the deductible is $500, you must to pay that amount prior to applying for any payment linked with your insurance.

What is a co-pay? When your deductible is met, most insurance policies require that you contribute a percentage of the cost for each visit to the physician, medicinal drug or procedure. That, in a nutshell is co-pay.

What’s the scope of insurance cover? Many health insurance policies include Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) or Partnership for Prescription Assistance (PPA). This can mean certain doctors might be omitted from your authorized health professionals or not be covered by a medical insurance plan. A detailed list of approved health providers are provided with your health insurance policy, before you make a choice be sure to study the options carefully.

What is catastrophic health insurance coverage? Be aware that there may be a restriction on medical insurance designed for students particularly as far as terminal illnesses are concerned, the amount of coverage extended in most student medical insurance is more often than not smaller than any standard plan. And what about the limits? Student health insurance plans may include certain limitations. Be sure to read over your policy and discover what your policy includes.

Have any medical insurance documents nearby everywhere. It is not just not possible to plan for accidents or illness, they are also likely to happen when not convenient. Ensure you’re au fait with the parameters of your insurance policy even should you be covered by a parent’s policy.

A youngster’s fingers were crushed recently when he tried to stop a mini digger from tumbling over and in another incident, an apprentice plasterer in his late teens hurt his eyes and skin, and suffered nerve damage after coming in contact with caustic present in wet plaster.

Following such incidents, life insurance company Aviva has been promoting a safe and secure workplace for young workers. The company’s liability risk manager, Phil Grace observed that these accidents also had to do with a more carefree attitude of youngsters as their risk perception is much lower. However, this aspect should be considered by the employers and proper steps should be taken to prevent the danger.

Pointing towards the Health and Safety (Young Persons) Regulations 1997, he urged the employers to make the parents or guardians aware about the associated health and safety risks with the job, which a young employee was involved in.

2008 saw a large number of accident related claims being made that usually involved young people working with heavy tools and machinery. In one of the cases, a 15 year old teenager Adam Gosling died when a wall fell on his head and caused grave injuries and the builder was charged for manslaughter.

Grace elaborated that correct operational procedures along with the right safety gear like helmets, gloves, safety glasses etc. can reduce the chances of an accident to a large extent. He said that employees should always be trained in the job and should be made aware of the risks involved.
