...November 2, 2009, was to correct a possible incursion of an incorrect or out-of-place front driver's side floor mat into the foot pedal well, which can cause pedal entrapment. The second recall, on January 21, 2010, was begun after some crashes were shown not to have been caused by floor mat incursion. In March 2010, at the time of the recall, Toyota was unsure of the cause behind a spate of cars that would speed up without the driver's help. Hybrid’s breaking systems: Prius owners have reported that brakes momentarily fail when driving in icy or slippery conditions, or over potholes. Normally the anti-lock braking system engages and disengages many times a second as the system reacts to the slipping tyres. But - as Toyota puts it - some drivers have complained of "inconsistent brake feel" during slow and steady braking on some surfaces when ABS is activated.The solution involves an upgrade of the software in the braking system, which should take less than an hour and will be carried out for free by official Toyota service centres. Toyota stresses that the cars are still safe to drive and the brakes will stop the car. US safety authorities, however, have said they have received reports of accidents, including a small number of reported injuries.There have been no reports of accidents in Europe. The Japanese auto giant recalled 2.17 million vehicles because of carpet and floor mat flaws that could jam gas pedals. Toyota has recalled more than 12 million vehicles...

...Early Childhood Education LEARNING CENTRES “HONEY BEES READING CENTRE” Introduction What are Learning Centres? The term Learning Centres refers to designated areas of the classroom where students congregate in small groups to accomplish given learning tasks. Typically, students can work independently in these centres, sometimes while the teacher works with a small reading group. Examples of learning centres may include: listening to audio cassettes, playing educational games on the computer, practicing handwriting, writing/editing written works, reading silently, playing imaginatively in the puppet centre, and playing math games with manipulatives. Student work in a given learning centre for a certain amount of time, then rotate to the next one when time is up. Teachers will need to spend a significant amount of time training students on how to behave during centre time, as well as modelling how to complete each of the learning centre activities. This will assure that learning centre time is productive, relatively quiet, and organized. AGE GROUP OF CENTRE AND THE MAIN CHARACTERISTICS OF CHILDREN IN AGE GROUP Four and five year-olds are the age group for which the ‘Honey Bees Reading Centre’ is planned. Children in this age range display several characteristics which can be categorized as cognitive, physical, psychosocial and moral. Cognitively * Enjoy stories and can retell them * Are fascinated by words and silly sounds * Have large vocabulary...

...of my home. My home is a rental student apartment which is located on the 8th floor of Medical Plaza, the University of Utah. Although it is not my real home, I still want to call it “my home.” My apartment is small and crowded but comfortable. My apartment is a two-bedroom apartment, which means I have a roommate. My apartment has a very clean living room, a little kitchen and a small bathroom. First, as you walk into the apartment, the white wall and white ceiling make the apartment more bright and clean. Then you can see there is a large round wooden brown desk in the center of the room. There are five leather brown chairs around the desk. There is a very large French window which almost occupies the whole north wall. The brown floor mat also makes the room more comfortable and warm. When the night is coming, you can see the very good vista through the large window. I really like seating beside the desk and have a cup of coffee, and I enjoy the wonderful time. Although the living room is not big, it is comfortable and lovely. Secondly, I will introduce my little kitchen and bathroom. The little kitchen has a large white refrigerator that always has good food and a big oven and microwave oven. Over the oven, you can find there is a clean and whiter range hoods. There are some cabinets over your head. The kitchen is very little; however, it held me and my roommate’s lives together. We always cook some delicious food together and ate together. There are many cook and seasons...

...get cool. Such issues are easier to control when doing your workouts at home although they still need proper planning. In other words, at home workouts are efficient to plan for when compared to outdoors exercises. For instance, at home workouts put you closer to the kitchen, to the shower and your closet. If you explicitly consider proximity to these vital necessities, you will find that they offer you with profound technical advantages. This article gives you the final tips that are a perfect fit for everyone doing their workouts at home. 1. Buy yourself a mat The first point worth considering before doing the at home workouts is the platform on which you will be exercising on. Although the space at your home may be restrictive, you should make sure that the platform that you are using is ideal for your body fitness. Although the floor surface is probably covered with a carpet or a mat, it is important to get a mat specifically for your workout. This ensures that your body hygiene is not compromised. Additionally, it improves the cleanliness of your room because nobody likes the smell of stale sweat that drips on the carpet during...

...Problem & Exercise Chapter 8 3. A report is meant for reading and information, so if a report is not properly put together then these things can happen: * listed with no page numbers then they can be shuffled and get out of order * putting the headings of the columns on every page (if not it is information overload & you will lose you place) * having incorrect information/data * missing one of the who, what, when, or where (software error) * data errors The consequences to these errors are: * the wrong decisions can be made * the data can given or received can be wrong * the outputs are wrong If the analyst can notice most of the errors as he is working on them so that it may be corrected then this can help keep the project of the report going without too many complications. Prototyping is very helpful when working on reports because the analyst is able to structure and refine the report before it is viewed by the mass majority without the consequences of errors. 4. The date does not specify when the report was generated; it does not give a revision date or code for any prior report versions, does not provide any meaningful information, there is not any page number listed, the spacing of the report information does not seem to be in place.

...Abstract Kabir Das : Literature and Communication Literature is the mirror of society and it is the reflection of the age, which it belongs to. Literature of any age and era shows the prevalent trend of the period when it was created and connects at its best to that era. The uniqueness of the literature of Saint Kabir is that it transcends all boundaries and limitations of time and place. In spite of the fact that his literature belongs to the period of 15th century it is still relevant, remembered, quoted and discussed with passion and fervor not only among the connoisseurs of art and literature but also among common man and youth. This article is an attempt to throw light on the various dimensions of Kabir Das’s literature and how it is still effectively communicated and in turn is used for effective communication. This paper contemplates on the varied aspects of kabir’s literature. Kabir’s literature is known for elements of mysticism, spirituality, concept of love, his objectivity in imparting moral education, his attack on vices of human behavior, hypocrisy and materialistic attitude. All these aspects are dominantly reflected in his literary works and are still relevant in today’s social scenarios which are well communicated in the form of his well remembered ‘Dohas’ and poetry. Hence, it is concluded that Kabir’s literature, in spite of being so old and classical is timeless and well applicable and connected with today’s era. His ‘Dohas’ makes...

...Simplex method for the Paint Company MAT/205 Finite Mathematics December, 20, 2011 The world of economics for a business can be a challenging area for the owners and operators to keep control of. The process of balancing cost of production to the profit of the item has to be constantly balanced. There are methods that can help a business owner to make the balancing process easier. The simplex method is an algebraic method that can help an individual solve a problem that can have large amounts of variables and problem constraints, and the method also puts inequalities in a format that is usable by computers (Raymond A. Barnett, Michael R. Ziegler, and Karl E. Byleen, 2011). A paint company uses the simplex method to help determine the amount of paint that needs to be produced while keeping cost at a minimum and maximizing profit. The simplex method will be broken down to allow for thorough understanding of the process with the results displayed for the business. The benefits of the method will be discussed so the paint company can utilize the information. A paint company has two plants that produce paint and primer. The A plant produces 20 gallons of paint and 10 gallons of primer per hour. The B plant produces 5 gallons of paint and 25 gallons of primer per hour. The C plant produces 15 gallons of paint and 15 gallons of primer per hour. The price of operating A plant is $80 per hour, the price to operate B plant is $70 per hour, and C plant...

...Focus on Application 4 Michelle MAT/205 October 25, 2013 The concept that I studied this week was compound and continuous compound interest calculations. Calculating interest is something that I had never considered doing to determine the best types of interest, I just always took what I got and never questioned it. I had heard of an interest rate or an APR but never how it was truly calculated or applied to a loan or investment. I have a car, a house, student loans and a credit card all with different rates and different compounding calculations. I have started to look into my own rates to compare and contrast what may be better options. Simple interest takes into consideration principal amount, rate, time and the future value. This can be for a loan, like a car, or for an investment. The importance of this is to know what the future value is going to be at the end of the time. Knowing this simple calculation could help you save money on a loan or make more money on an investment. This basic concept can be a first step in managing your money smartly. Compound interest is different that simple interest in that the interest due is reinvested at the same rate. That means that the interest as well as the principal will earn interest in each period. This compounding period could be daily, monthly or quarterly; each loan is different. This compounding calculation takes into consideration the same factors, principal amount, rate, time and future amount but it...

...Nina Hills MAT 205 /Week 2 Focus on Application 07/11/2014 The concept of this week was to look at function problems that can include exponentials and logarithms with functions. These functions help with situations such as profit analysis, compound interest, continues compound interest or even doubling time for an investment. An example that I have that would go very well with today’s day in age would be simply the economy on its own. Our economy has taken such a huge turn downhill due to big banks making poor choices of investment. With that, many people don’t have savings accounts, 401K’s and such for their own future ahead. These two examples are examples of ways we may save for our retirement, but at this point there is a bare chance of that happening at an earlier on age. Many will have to work longer throughout their lives just to make sure that they are financially set when entering retirement. With the concepts of this week, we can calculate how long it would take to double a certain amount of investment in a certain time period with a fixed interest rate that would play upon a certain interval. A=P(1+r/m)^mt This equation can help determine t (time), for the principal to double. We can put in 2P for A, due to the other known values are r (interest rate) and m=1. Once we solve for t, we know the amount of time it will take to double our investment. With this week’s concept, we can predict at a pretty accurate rate the amount of time it takes to grow...

...Mat 205-01 Statistics: Course summary December 3, 2014 Emmanuel Johnson Descriptive statistics is the term given to the analysis of data that helps describe, show or summarize data in a meaningful way such that, for example, patterns might emerge from the data. Descriptive statistics do not, however, allow us to make conclusions beyond the data we have analysed or reach conclusions regarding any hypotheses we might have made. They are simply a way to describe our data. Descriptive statistics are very important because if we simply presented our raw data it would be hard to visulize what the data was showing, especially if there was a lot of it. Descriptive statistics therefore enables us to present the data in a more meaningful way, which allows simpler interpretation of the data. For example, if we had the results of 100 pieces of students' coursework, we may be interested in the overall performance of those students. We would also be interested in the distribution or spread of the marks. Descriptive statistics allow us to do this. How to properly describe data through statistics and graphs is an important topic and discussed in other Laerd Statistics guides. In simple linear regression, we predict scores on one variable from the scores on a second variable. The variable we are predicting is called the criterion variableand is referred to as Y. The variable we are basing our predictions on is called thepredictor variable and is referred to as X. When there...
