Discusses the evolution of three main streams within the financial distress prediction literature: the set of dependent and explanatory variables used, the statistical methods of estimation, and the modeling of financial distress.Section 1 discusses concepts of financial distress. Section 2 discusses theories regarding the use of financial ratios as predictors of financial distress. Section 3 contains a brief review of the literature. Section 4 discusses the use of market price-based models of financial distress. Section 5 develops the statistical methods for empirical estimation of the probability of financial distress. Section 6 discusses the major empirical findings with respect to prediction of financial distress. Section 7 briefly summarizes some of the more relevant literature with respect to bond ratings. Section 8 presents some suggestions for future research and Section 9 presents concluding remarks.

Though more than 300 years have elapsed since the first description of the peculiar course of the spinal accessory (XI) nerve by Willis (1664), the crucial problems concerning what is known as accessory field of musculature and its innervation are still unsolved and a matter of controversy. Like the bulbar XI, the spinal XI nerve is commonly regarded as originally a branch of the vagus and, therefore, as a cranial nerve (Fiirbringer 1897; Gegenbaur 1898; Lubosch 1899). However, whether this nerve is of special visceral or somatic derivation is still debated. The conventional distinction between these function­ ally separate categories of cranial nerves is based largely on two criteria, namely, the position of the cranial nerve nucleus and the embryological derivation of the muscles innervated by this nerve. Unfortunately, little is known about the development of this accessory field of musculature, and the evidence concern­ ing the position of the spinal XI nucleus is contradictory. In fact, although the spinal XI nerve is usually regarded as a purely efferent nerve belong­ ing to the special visceral efferent group of cranial nerves and innervating muscles derived from the branchial mesoderm, each of these properties has been questioned. Consequently, the classification of the nerve is still unset­ tled. Evidence in support of a special visceral origin of the spinal XI nerve is found in the phylogenetic history of the spinal XI nucleus.

En este trabajo se describe la s ntesis y exploraci n de la reactividad del grupo amino del 1-(p-aminofenil)-2,5-dimetilpirrol. Se observ que ste compuesto no participa en reacciones de formaci n de azocompuestos ni en reacciones del tipo aza Michael, pero si lo hace en reacciones de sustituci n nucleof lica en el acilo y en reacciones de formaci n de una imina. Su baja reactividad se atribuye a la poca nucleofilia disminuida por los efectos estereoelectr nicos del mismo (impedimento est rico, efectos inductivo y resonante). Se emple para la caracterizaci n de todos los productos de reacci n la espectroscop a de infrarrojo, resonancia magn tica nuclear de prot n y resonancia magn tica nuclear de carbono. En el caso de los productos cristalinos se le confirm la estructura por difracci n de rayos X de monocristal.

Virtually all of the food we eat comes from plants, either directly from such staples as grains, fruits and vegetables, or indirectly through livestock that rely on plants for fodder. Plants also provide us with oxygen, fibers, fuel, and medicine. In short, our dependence on them is great indeed. This third edition of a classic bibliography retains the best features of its predecessor, published ten years ago, with greatly expanded coverage of Web sites. Its nearly 1,000 annotated entries focus on core materials for botanists and plant biologists. Organized by topic rather than format, it covers such enduring yet timely topics as: Plant Evolution and Paleobotany; Ethnobotany; Ecology; Anatomy, Morphology, and Development; Genetics, Molecular Biology, and Biotechnology; Plant Physiology and Phytochemistry; and Systematics and Identification. In addition, introductory chapters discuss the study of plants, characteristics of plant biology literature, and the history of the field and the people in it. This is the perfect deskside companion for both neophyte and seasoned botanists and their information purveyors.

The main benefit of the book is that it explores available methodologies for both conducting in-situ measurements and adequately exploring the results, based on a case study that illustrates the benefits and difficulties of concurrent methodologies.The case study corresponds to a set of 25 social housing dwellings where an extensive in situ measurement campaign was conducted. The dwellings are located in the same quarter of a city. Measurements included indoor temperature and relative humidity, with continuous log in different rooms of each dwelling, blower-door tests and complete outdoor conditions provided by a nearby weather station.The book includes a variety of scientific and engineering disciplines, such as building physics, probability and statistics and civil engineering. It presents a synthesis of the current state of knowledge for benefit of professional engineers and scientists.

This ground-breaking book was many years in the making by some of the country's leading women scholars.Until the present century, few people thought of travel as a female pursuit. Men traveled; women stayed at home. But women have always journeyed, for many reasons, as this important book demonstrates."There is almost nothing on women and travel," notes Susan Armitage, editor of the acclaimed The Women's West and a contributor to Women and the Journey. "It has been taken for granted that men are adventurers and explorers, but what this does is wipe out the stories of women travelers. As we looked at how women's senses of their journeys differed from those of men, we felt like explorers ourselves."The eleven essays in Women and the Journey, as well as the original artwork by Jo Hockenhull, approach the theme of women and travel from a variety of perspectives, including literature, history, foreign languages, fine arts, and women's studies. Over several years the contributors worked on this project as a team, sharing research, reading one another's work, uniting in the process of creating a unique book together. Like quilt making, "that most female of activities," note McLeod and Frederick in their prologue, "each of us had some say in how the final product was put together."Women and the Journey is destined to become a women's studies classic. Contributors include Susan Armitage, Joan Burbick, Susanna Finnell, Bonnie Frederick, Diane Gillespie, Jo Hockenhull, Virginia Hyde, Birgitta Ingemanson, Susan McLeod, Sheila Ruzycki O'Brien, Louise Schleiner, Marina Tolmacheva, and Annette White-Parks.

This book features four peer-reviewed reviews on optimising reproductive efficiency in pigs.The first chapter highlights some of the main factors which are known to affect reproductive efficiency in pigs, including gilt development, litter size, control of the weaning to oestrus interval and season infertility. Management strategies designed to help producers continue to make a profit are also discussed.The second chapter introduces the concept of artificial insemination and details its importance in mitigating future challenges encountered by the global pig industry. The chapter also considers a range of factors which can affect the reproductive efficiency of boars, including low sperm count and semen quality.The third chapter reviews the advances and trade-offs of genetic selection for improved reproductive performance in modern sows, such as an increase in piglet mortality rates. The chapter also includes informed discussions on breeding for improved conception rate, litter size and maternal behaviour.The final chapter summarises the basic physiology of porcine female reproduction, including ovarian structure and function, folliculogenesis and steroidogenesis. It also describes stages of the porcine oestrous cycle. Further, emerging exposures and alterations to ambient temperatures and how they affect porcine female reproductive function are included.

I vårt sångbara svenska språk äger vi ovärderliga skatter: Sånger som vill bli sjungna, melodier som vill bli nynnade, ramsor som vill bli trallade. Men hur blir det i framtiden? Hur tar vi i vår snabbt föränderliga tid vara på detta levande arv, på rätten till vår egendom? Det är i de tidiga barnaåren allt grundläggs, också sången. Den här boken presenterar kunskaper om spädbarnets tidiga melodiliknande joller, om barnröstens anatomiska byggnad och klangliga möjligheter och hur barnets hjärna tar emot tidiga musikaliska impulser. Rytmik, rörelse, improvisation har betydelse för att väcka barns sånglust. Boken innehåller en teoretisk och en praktisk del. Den senare presenterar övningar och sånger för barn från förskola och upp i 10-årsåldern. Med boken följer en CD som ger exempel på en del av bokens övningar och sånger, tillsammans med exempel på sjungande barn från äldre och nyare inspelningar. Boken vänder sig till studenter på utbildningar där barn och sång är ett viktigt ämne, fram för allt blivande lärare i förskola och skola, musiklärare, kyrkomusiker och logopeder. Den vänder sig också till körledare, föräldrar och sångintresserade i allmänhet.

HypnoBirthing. Der natürliche Weg zu einer sicheren, sanften und leichten Geburt. Das Original von Marie F. Mongan - 9. Auflage des Geburtshilfe-Klassikers
Was kommt auf mich zu? Werde ich große Schmerzen haben? Wird alles gutgehen? Stimmen eigentlich die vielen Schauer-Geschichten, die man mir erzählt hat? Viele werdende Mütter haben ein mulmiges Gefühl, wenn es langsam aber sicher in Richtung Geburt geht. Doch warum ist die Geburt für viele Frauen ein so traumatisches und schmerzhaftes Erlebnis? Und warum enden heute mehr als ein Viertel aller Geburten mit einem Kaiserschnitt? Die Antwort von HypnoBirthing ist einfach: Die tief in unserer Kultur verankerte Angst der Frauen vor der Geburt bewirkt im Körper drei entscheidende Reaktionen - die Muskeln verkrampfen sich, die Durchblutung wird reduziert und bestimmte Stress-Hormone werden ausgeschüttet. Alle diese Reaktionen bedingen und verschlimmern die Geburtsschmerzen. Bei der Mongan-Methode wird diese Angst mit Hilfe von Hypnose-Techniken systematisch abgebaut, auch solche aus traumatisch erlebten Geburten. Viele Schmerzen entstehen so erst gar nicht, die werdende Mutter kann sich tief entspannen und ihr Körper seine Aufgabe wesentlich besser erfüllen. Zusätzlich vermindert HypnoBirthing Schmerzen durch besondere Atem-, Entspannungs- und Konzentrationsübungen drastisch, so dass Schmerzmittel fast immer überflüssig sind. Ebenso wird die Zahl der Kaiserschnitte und anderer ärztlicher Eingriffe stark reduziert. Nach der Geburt erholen sich die Frauen deutlich schneller und können so auch besser eine innige Bindung zu ihrem Kind aufbauen. Das in diesem Buch beschriebene Programm ist keine Manipulation, sondern ein natürlicher Weg, die Geburt zu erleichtern. Lassen Sie sich dabei helfen, Ihr Kind voller Zuversicht, entspannt, sanft und friedlich zur Welt zu bringen! Dem Buch liegt eine HypnoBirthing-Entspannungs- und Übungs-CD bei. Bei Zehntausenden Geburten bewährt - die erfolgreiche Geburtshilfe aus den USA!
The Sacred and the Impure in Judaism

The Sacred and the Impure in Judaism examines the radicalization of certain Orthodox Jewish groups through the lens of kashrut, or Jewish dietary laws. Mata F. Topel begins with a historical look at chumratization--the tendency among rabbis toward more rigorous interpretations of Jewish law--beginning in Hungary in the late 19th century and on through the nascent radicalization of Israeli Orthodox Jews in the 1950s. Then, drawing on Orthodox kashrut manuals and interviews with kashrut supervisors, ritual butchers, and a diverse group of Orthodox men and women, Topel shows how changes to dietary laws have had a profound effect on the ritual density of everyday life in these communities. Detailed descriptions of the difficulties that Orthodox housewives have in carrying out preparations for the Jewish Passover reveal a certain obsession with following the commandments and customs mandated by authorities. Contrasting medieval practices with current ones, Topel shows that the number of rules for celebrating Passover has increased exponentially in recent decades, an important indication of the chumratization process that effects significant segments of this population. However, she also finds exceptions: While many Orthodox rabbis demand that kashrut supervisors and housewives take great pains to avoid ingesting insects that may be found in vegetables and fruit, they have also become significantly more lenient when it comes to consuming non-kosher meat--so much so that most meat consumed by Orthodox communities today is not kosher. The Sacred and the Impure in Judaism reveals considerable changes in the content and function of kashrut for Orthodox Jews in Israel and its diaspora, which contradicts ideas of purity within this community and the notion that their beliefs and practices are identical to European Judaism of the 18th and 19th centuries, while highlighting the multiple and intricate relationships that exist between a community's religion, food, and identity.
