...In 1980, Harmon gained a regular role in the prime time soap opera Flamingo Road, in which he played Fielding Carlisle, the husband of Morgan Fairchild's character. Despite initially good ratings, the series was canceled after two seasons. Following its cancellation, he landed the role of Dr. Robert Caldwell on the prestigious NBC Emmy-winning series St. Elsewhere in 1983. Harmon appeared in the show for almost three seasons before leaving in early 1986 when his character contracted HIV through unprotected intercourse, one of the first instances where a major recurring television character contracted the virus (the character's subsequent off-screen death from AIDS would be mentioned two years later). In the mid-1980s, Harmon also became the spokesperson for Coors Regular beer, appearing in television commercials for them.[15] Harmon's career reached several other high points in 1986. In January, he was named People magazine's Sexiest Man Alive. Following his departure from St. Elsewhere in February, he played the lead in the TV movies Prince of Bel Air, co-starring with Kirstie Alley, and The Deliberate Stranger, in which he portrayed the real-life law student turned cross-country serial killer Ted Bundy. With his career blossoming, he gained a role in the 1986 theatrical film Let's Get Harry and the lead role in the 1987 comedy Summer School, again co-starring with Kirstie Alley. Returning briefly to episodic television in 1987, Harmon had a limited engagement on the series...

...Ted Bundy was brought into this world on November 24, 1946 in Burlington, Vermont with the name Theodore Robert Cowell. He began his life as a shame and a secret. His mother, Eleanor Cowell, was only twenty-two years old when she became pregnant with Ted. Since Eleanor was unmarried, she feared the reticule she would face from her deeply religious parents. With that in mind, she was able to give birth to her son at a home in Vermont for unwed mothers. She then later decided to bring Ted to her parents, who lived in Philadelphia. Her parents wanted to hide the fact that he was brought into this world out of wedlock and was an illegitimate child; Ted was raised being told that his grandparents were his adopted parents and his mother was only his sister. A few years later, Eleanor and Ted moved to Tacoma, Washington. In 1951, Eleanor married a man by the name Johnnie Bundy, where the two then had several children together. From all aspects, Ted Bundy grew up in a content, working-class family. However, at an early age, his mother started noticing that he began to show an interest in disturbing and horrifying acts. When Bundy reached the age of about 3, Eleanor noticed that he became oddly fascinated with knives. However, he was shy, but bright child and seemed to do fairly well in school, but did not get along so well with his fellow classmates. As Ted grew into his teenage years, he began to peer into people’s windows and did not think twice about stealing belongings from other...

...compute the Solow residual in the same way as before. Starting with taking natural logarithms: ln(Y)=αln(K)+(1-α)ln(A)+1-αln(L) Taking the first difference: ln(Y)-ln(Y-1)=α(ln(K)-ln(K-1))+(1-α)(ln(A)-ln(A-1))+1-α(ln(L)-ln(L-1)) Using the approximation: : lnX-lnX-1≅X-X-1X-1=∆XX to give the growth accounting equation: ∆YY=α∆KK+(1-α)∆AA+1-α∆LL And rearranging to give the Solow residual and plugging the numbers in: ∆AA=11-α∙∆YY-α1-α∙∆KK-∆LL=3.5% Note that the growth rate of technology when the labour-augmented production function is used, of 3.5% is greater than that of the Standard Cobb-Douglas, of 2.8%. Your boss was hoping it would fall, but it has risen. c) The Long run growth rate of human capital is ∆HH=2.5% Our new production function is: Y=Kα(AHL)1-α Again, computing the Solow residual in the same was as before. Taking natural logarithms: ln(Y)=αln(K)+1-αln(A)+1-αln(H)+1-αln(L) After taking the first differences and making the approximation: lnX-lnX-1≅X-X-1X-1=∆XX We get:...
