...Chapter I Introduction Obesity rates have increased dramatically for all population groups in the United States over the last several decades, (Blackburn, 2005). It is a very serious issue which can lead to both health and social consequences attributing to the major deficits as an adult. Obesity is an excess of body fat. Body Mass Index is a popular method of defining a healthy weight versus being underweight, overweight or obese. Body Mass Index should be used as a guide, along with waist size, to help estimate the amount of body fat a person has. A Body Mass Index of 25 to 29.9 is considered overweight and a Body Mass Index of 30 or above is considered obese. Obesity can shorten your life and put you at risk of developing a number of serious health conditions. These are, but not limited to high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease and some forms of cancer. It has also been noted that health risks are higher for youth who are obese, and the risks happens to increase as the degree of obesity increases. Youth who carry extra weight around their waist, rather than in their legs and thighs, are more likely to experience health problems caused by obesity. However, parents, the community, and schools can make a huge difference when it comes to preventing and solving the problems of overweight and obesity in adolescent. Physical education has been part of the educational curriculum for nearly 200 years. The physical education curriculum is designed to allow students to experience...

...Pacer Ltd transferred equipment to Thelma Ltd in exchange for the receipt of $1M cash and a 25% equity ownership stake in Thelma Ltd. Pacer Ltd’s book basis in the transferred equipment was $6M, and the equipment was recently appraised for $6.5M. The fair value of the investment in Thelma Ltd is $5.5M, and the fair value is reliably determined. The investment gives Pacer Ltd significant influence over Theta, but is not a controlling financial interest in Thelma Ltd. Thelma Ltd is in the business of making and selling tissues and will use the equipment for tissue production. Prior to transferring the equipment, Pacer Ltd used the equipment to produce paper towels and napkins. However, significant overseas competition has caused profit margins and demand for the domestic production paper towels and napkins to fall. Production using the equipment had recently been cut down to only one-eight hour shift per day. Tissues are expected to be a more profitable output, with steady consumer demand. Theta expects to run the equipment for three-eight hour shifts per day. Pacer Ltd hopes the investment in Thelma Ltd will revive its slowing growth prospects. You are in the controller’s group of Pacer Ltd and need to determine the appropriate accounting for this transaction. Prepare a technical memorandum, citing the appropriate authoritative and non-authoritative literature to address the accounting for this transaction. First of all, identification of VIE interest model test should be...

...Since their season-opening loss to the Chicago Bulls, the Cleveland Cavaliers haven’t experienced defeat. In Sunday’s matinee at Quicken Loans Arena, the Cavs (6-1) picked up their sixth straight win with a narrow 101-97 victory over the Indiana Pacers (3-4). The win was Cleveland’s 26th straight at home when scoring at least 100 points. “I do know that we’re a tough out here in The Q, and the guys take pride in it,” Cavs head coach David Blatt said.

Cleveland held a 97-92 lead when Cavs power forward Kevin Love sank a three-pointer with 27 second remaining in the fourth quarter. Pacers forward Paul George matched Love’s shot from long distance with a three-pointer...

...My personal fitness goal My personal fitness goal was to become healthier mentally and physically by increasing my cardiovascular endurance. Along the way I wanted to be able to run longer and faster, I wanted to be able to improve my physical education grade and earn the Presidential Fitness Award by the end of the year. Overall, I met my S.M.A.R.T. goals for my eighth-grade year by making realistic and specific plans for improvement. I met my midpoint goal for endurance because I ran 51 laps in the Fitnessgram Pacer Test which was my exact goal for midyear. In the fall I ran 42 laps, which means I improved by 9 laps between the fall and the winter. This also meant that I had to improve by 10 laps in order to achieve my goal for the spring....

... Educ 205 Article 1: Evaluation: What does it mean for Your Child? By: PACER Center (2007) This article discusses the identification and importance of determining whether or not a student has a disability. The excerpt focuses on why an evaluation is essential when determining a child’s functional level and development. It also discusses the varying assessments that are possible when evaluating a student. Some of these assessments include group tests, individual tests, curriculum-based assessments, standardized tests, and more. This specific article was chosen simply because it plays a key role when measuring the educational needs for students. This article would more than likely be appealing to parents who suspect that their child may have a disability. An important factor mentioned in this article strongly reassures parents that they have a slew of information to submit when preparing to get their child evaluated. In order for a child to be eligible for special education services, the child needs to be evaluated through appropriate assessment. Some of this information from a parent may include: -medical information -comparing the child's progress to typical child development -observing how the child functions in school, at home, or in the community -interviews with parents and school staff (Pacer Center, 2007). As an educator, this information can most definitely be applied in order to accommodate the professional...

...The best player on Sporting KC in my opinion would probably be Jimmy Medranda. Reasons for this are his work ethic, shot power, and his conditioning. Medranda shows his work ethic throughout the entire game which the coach Peter Vermes likes a lot which is why he is always in the 18 man squad. His shot power he can shoot the ball from half field and still put it 20 feet over the goal. Lastly his conditioning he can play for a long time more than usual and apparently runs a half marathon each day. His work ethic more examples of his work ethic are probably the fact that every video of him is him running after a ball or chasing down a person with the ball. Him running after the ball actually is harder than it seems for 90 straight minutes and...

...Heart Blocks 7/ 2005 Hi all. Yet another one, which occurred to me that I should do about two weeks ago, when a patient was doing some pretty strange things on the monitor. As usual, please remember that this is not meant to be an official reference, but is supposed to represent the information that a preceptor would pass on to a new orientee in the unit. Please get back to me if things aren’t clear, have been left out, or are just plain wrong, and I’ll fix them up right away. Thanks! 1- What is a heart block? 2- What exactly is being “blocked” in heart block? 2-1- The key idea: all of the time, some of the time, none of the time… 2-2- It can not be that simple… 3- Why do heart blocks happen? 4- What are the three types, or degrees of heart block? What is a “dropped beat”? 4-1- A normal rhythm for reference. 4-2- First degree heart block. 4-3- Second degree heart block. 4-3-1- Second degree, type 1: Wenckebach/ Mobitz 1 4-3-2- Second degree, type 2: Mobitz 2 4-4- How I tell them apart? 4-5- Third degree (complete) heart block. 5- A puzzler… 6- What is the treatment for heart block? 7- Where can I learn more about pacemakers? 1- What is a heart block? Heart block is a kind of arrhythmia, usually caused by ischemia or an MI. There are three kinds, or degrees of heart block, and although sometimes people get confused about them, actually they’re pretty simple to...

...One of the assessments that were done was called a pacer test. This test had students run from one end to the gym to the other end before the whistle was blown. If you couldn't get to the other side more than 2 times you were out.This was typically done by genders so all the girls would run together as the boys sat on the side and vice versa. Before the test, I remember my friends would make packs to run at least 25 laps, but I would always get tired around the 10th lap. Due to my hyperthyroidism, I get tired much quicker and I would start sweating. You can sweat drip from my face even before we reached the teen laps, I would always be one of the first girls to stop running. As I walked across the gym, with sweat all over my face and breathing heavily, to write down the number of laps I completed I would feel as though I was being judged by everyone. I felt embarrassed that I couldn't run more...
