...has increased, while union membership has declined dramatically, along with the size of the traditional industrial working class. Most workers expect unemployment at some point in their careers, especially the unskilled and uneducated. In 1983, only 5 percent of non-manual workers were unemployed. In contrast, skilled manual workers experienced 12 percent and semi-skilled and unskilled manual workers 23 percent unemployment, and manual workers combined accounted for 84 percent of the unemployed. England is becoming a society of the included and the excluded. There has been a sharp rise in long-term unemployment. The nature of work in a fluid economy does not support long-term employment for low-skilled and moderately skilled workers, and this is reflected in the rise in part-time (24.7 percent of the 1999 workforce), and multiple-job workers. Homelessness has become a fact of English life, with 102,410 families in England accepted as homeless in 1997 alone. The richest class has increased its share of the national income and...

...muscles during exercise, and its ability to take up and use oxygen to produce energy needed to continue exercising. Although I am satisfied with my personal fitness status, I always feel as if I could improve. Throughout high school, I was actively involved in several sports including basketball, volleyball, badminton, and track. With constant activity, I was always getting a workout to keep up my fitness level. However, when I completed high school and moved on to university, I found it very difficult to find the time to participate in physical activity. Living on my own for the first time brought many challenges including time management, which forced me to rearrange my priorities, pushing things such as working out to the bottom of the list below studying, social interaction, cooking, cleaning, etc. However, I rated very well in the Cooper’s 12 minute run test so I am pleased with my current level of cardiovascular fitness. Strategies to improve this level of fitness could include better time management skills allowing me to schedule in more hours per week devoted to physical activity. F - I would like to do 5 exercise sessions per week (preferably Sunday to Thursday) I – I would like to train at 75%...

Dress expect winter clothes, at least one set of suit 2. Each one carry at least on pressure cooker because when you move to some other place for internships you need not depend on others. All other cooking essentials you may consider to buy from Walmart (you can get a cooking set for some 50$ to 60$). You will not get chapatti roller, idly steamer and dal masher here. So, buy these items if you wish to. 3. Plan and split provision store items among your roomies. We have one Indian Store (Himalayan) but still you may not get many of the provision store items here. So, usually when we go to Dallas we refill all these items. But do not buy more because most of the time it will be wasted. 4. Ready mix (will help you for few days) but you cannot survive with this. Don’t buy more because it will be wasted. 5. Sports goods are expensive here. So carry two cricket balls at least and other goods based on your wish. 6. Few passport size photos.

...tangle of traffic all the time. China has been under the communist rule since the revolution led by Mao Tse Tung in 1966 and still continues to be under the centralized communist rule. Both the countries operated under centralized planning and kept their economies closed to global markets. However, in the past two decades, the world is witnessing a strange miracle taking place in both the countries. In the early 1980s, first China and later, India, started opening their economies to foreign direct investment and began participating more and more in global trade. The world had never witnessed this rare phenomenon of two relatively poor countries that together consist of a third of the world’s population, simultaneously taking off on a steep ascent in their economies. During the past twenty years, China has been growing at a heady rate of over 10% a year and India has growing at over 6% per year. This miraculous and sustained growth of these two countries is being watched by the rest of the world with mixture of surprise and...

...singing Occupations Hindi and Punjabi playback singer Instruments Vocalist Years active 1944–1980 Mohammad Rafi (Urdu: ,عیفر دمحمHindi: मोहम्मद रफ़ी; 24 December 1924 – 31 July 1980), was an Indian playback singer whose career spanned four decades.[1] He won a National Award and 6 Filmfare Awards. In 1967, he was honoured with the Padma Shri by the Government of India.[2] In a career spanning about 40 years, Rafi sang over 26,000 film songs.[3] His songs ranged from classical numbers to patriotic songs, sad lamentations to highly romantic numbers, qawwalis to ghazals and bhajans, and from slow melancholic tunes to fast and melodious fun filled songs. He had a strong command of Hindi and Urdu and a powerful range that could accommodate this variety.[4] He sang in many Indian languages including Hindi, Konkani, Urdu, Bhojpuri, Oriya, Punjabi, Bengali, Marathi, Sindhi, Kannada, Gujarati, Telugu, Maghi, Maithili and Assamese. He also recorded a few English, Persian, Spanish and Dutch songs. An article in Times of India, published on 24 July 2010 sums up his voice as, "If there are 101 ways of saying "I love you" in a song, Mohammed Rafi knew them all. The awkwardness of puppy love, the friskiness of teen romance, the philosophy of unrequited love and the anguish of heartbreak - he could explore every crevice of ardour. It wasn't just love, his voice could capture the navras of life - a failed poet's melancholy, a fiery unionist's vim, a debt-ridden farmer's despair, really anybody...
