...UPFRONT Domestic Bliss > A LOOK AT WHAT’S “MADE IN AMERICA.” C by T O N Y Q U I R O G A ontrary to popular belief, America still builds cars—a lot of them. Nearly 8 million cars and trucks came out of U.S. plants last year. Step back and look at the entire North American continent, and production adds up to more than 12 million units. But even if a vehicle is made by an American company by American workers, it’s not necessarily an American car, at least according to our government. By Uncle Sam’s reckoning, if 75 percent (by value) or more of a car’s parts come from the U.S. or Canada, it’s considered a domestic product; less than that, and it’s not. The maps here tell you not only where your North American–made car is built, but just how American it really is. 12 13 14 2010 North American Automobile Production 115 Annual Production Less than 10,000 vehicles 10,000 - 50,000 50,001 - 100,000 100,001 - 150,000 150,001 - 200,000 200,001 - 250,000 250,001 - 300,000 More than 300,000 99 100 101 12,210,869 LAFAYETTE 31 32 33 34 PRINCETON CANADA MEXICO 2,084,911 2,319,564 7,806,394 Part Content U.S./Canada over 75% U.S./Canada under 75% SUBARU LEGACY SUBARU OUTBACK SUBARU TRIBECA TOYOTA CAMRY TOYOTA HIGHLANDER TOYOTA SEQUOIA TOYOTA SIENNA N/A N/A 40% 80% 70% 80% 75% 43,791 108,686 5543 87,731 86,527 24,685 132,780 35 36 37 K A N SAS KANSAS CITY 38 39 2010 PRODUCTION 2011 U.S./CANADA PART CONTENT VEHICLE A L A BAMA LINCOLN...

...and vomiting; when managing constipation, nurse can implement laxatives to prevent discomfort by temporarily allowing normal bowel function (Pellatt, 2007, p. 353). Patients with MBO are likely to receive care in different settings ranging from tertiary cancer centers, community hospitals, ambulatory cancer clinics, to palliative care units (Daines et al., 2013, p. 593). Whatever the setting might be, as the nurse caring for patients with MBO, one must assess the underlying factors such as tumor growth and fecal impaction that contribute to symptoms of MBO. Assessment typically includes examining and gathering information such as physical status, emotional status, medication review, and past medical history. The use of computed tomography (CT) scan may be required to determine the extent of the disease (Letizia & Norton, 2003, p.151). The main aim of assessment is for nurse to identify the main cause of the problem and come up with appropriate treatment. Treatment for MBO is challenging because it is influenced by many factors such as level of obstruction, overall prognosis, burden of the disease, and the presence of fluid accumulated in the abdominal cavity due to...

...In today’s society most business are reliant on information systems to perform everyday activities. These activities range from inventory to customer relations to employee files. An example of this is information technology in the healthcare system. Healthcare systems such as the EPIC system which is what most healthcare establishments have upgraded to in order to handle everything from physicians notes to patents protected health information and test results. Many companies have done away with the old methods of file keeping such as paper files and now store all of their business information such as contact information, suppliers, employee files and other information on an electronic database. By using an electronic database companies are able to better relate customers, suppliers, and parts. For example a company might use a relational database table system. This would mean that the organization would first make a table with all of the suppliers assigning each unique supplier a personal number to identify them by in case of multiple suppliers having the same name. The company would then have a list of all of the parts they acquire from all of the suppliers. Each part would be assigned a specific part number and the table would include the supplier number for the part. By organizing information like this it is much easier for a company to be able to order more parts from a supplier because the supplier is connected to the part verses having to look through an entire category...

...II. Website Content A. Information about Lawyers, their Law Firm, or their Clients Lawyer websites may provide biographical information about lawyers, including educational background, experience, area of practice, and contact information (telephone, facsimile and e-mail address). A website also may add information about the law firm, such as its history, experience, and areas of practice, including general descriptions about prior engagements. More specific information about a lawyer or law firm’s former or current clients, including clients’ identities, matters handled, or results obtained also might be included. Any of this information constitutes a “communication about the lawyer or the lawyer’s services,” and is therefore subject to the requirements of Model Rule 7.13 as well as the prohibitions against false and misleading statements in Rules 8.4(c) (generally) and 4.1(a) (when representing clients). Together, these rules prohibit false, fraudulent or misleading statements of law or fact. Thus, no website communication may be false or misleading, or may omit facts such that the resulting statement is materially misleading. Rules 5.1 and 5.3 extend this obligation to managerial lawyers in law firms by obligating them to make reasonable efforts to ensure the firm has in place measures giving reasonable assurance that all firm lawyers and nonlawyer assistants will comply with the rules of professional conduct. 1 This opinion is based on the ABA Model...

...ischemic stroke, diabetes, and gender revealed that women with diabetes has increased long term mortality over no-diabetic women by almost 20%; men on the other hand differs by only 1.4%. The study included 933 patients from the University Hospital del Mar in Barcelona, Spain. The study was comprised of 471 women and 462 men, who had their first ever ischemic stroke between 2006 and July 2011. “Differences in 3-month and 5-year mortality and disability between diabetic and non-diabetic patients were analyzed by sex.” All study patients received a Computed Tomography (CT) scan when in the Emergency Room. Upon admission to the hospital for treatment and observation, patients were evaluated for severity by a “vascular trained neurologist” using the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS). 339 study patients had previously been diagnosed with diabetes mellitus. Of those diabetic patients, 300 (145 women and 155 men) were given an HbA1C test during admission as well with median results of 7.1 for women and 7.5 for men. 186 diabetic patients (88 women and 98 men) “were taking oral antidiabetics” and 75 other diabetic patients (39 women and 36 men) “were under insulin treatment”. There isn’t any treatment data for the other 78 diabetic participants, so I can only assume they were not currently being treated. Diabetes has been shown to affect the severity, functional outcomes, and even mortality rates of ischemic strokes. Other researchers have studied the effects of diabetes...
