<u>A technology that increased the productivity in the production (and also distribution processes) was usage of steam power.</u>

Steam power started to be applied to production activities in the UK during the industrial revolution, and made it possible to conduct mining activities, operate mills or to provide energy to a whole factory, decreasing production times and costs (for example, less physical strenght was needed and hence a smaller number of employees need to be hired for a certain task).

The usage of steam power contributed to the generalization of production processes organized in chain and to the development of better and more advanced engines. Steam engines were subsequently applied to boats, railways, farms and road vehicles.

Nat2105 [25]

Both Natalie and Min will undergo the same kind of growth and development. They will undergo similar experience in term of physical, socio-emotional and cognitive development. Socio-emotional development refers to a child's ability to perceive and understand the feeling of other people, control their own behavior and get along with peers. Cognitive development has to do with the child development in term of processing information, learning language and perceptual skills. Although the girls will have to learn different languages and customs but the basic process of development is the same for the two of them.

Imagine you are living in northern Europe today. In one or two paragraphs, explain how education, health care, and benefit progr

laila [671]

Answer:

Living in Northern Europe would be highly beneficial and tough as well.

Today, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway and Sweden are the countries that are generally considered to form the Northern Europe.

Education in Europe is pretty different from the style that we follow in India. In India we are forced to study all types of subjects and our syllabus is huge. While in Europe, children are given the freedom to choose few subjects only or study about whatever they wish to from an early age.

Health Care in North European countries are way more advanced and better than India. People will surely benefit a lot from there. Advanced medicine and technology will help in quicker recovery.

The mindset of people in Europe is pretty different than Indians so benefit programs will be carried out well and help many people.

If I lived in Northern Europe, my standards of living would be pretty high.

Why tough? Because its freezing cold in winters and snow is literally everywhere. It'll be tough to travel from one place to another.

Evaluation of community and organizational characteristics of smoke-free ordinance campaigns in 15 Wisconsin cities

babunello [35]

From 1992 through 2002, smoke-free restaurant ordinance campaigns were held in 15 Wisconsin cities. Each campaign's organizational qualities of the community and health coalition were different; six out of the nine campaigns that succeeded in passing ordinances also failed.

Information on coalition and community characteristics was examined. Adjusted gross income, the proportion of Democrats who voted in recent elections, and county smoking prevalence were among the community variables.

The number of known supporters, leadership experience, extent of print news media coverage, and editorial stance of local newspaper were among the coalition features.
