...An interface is a reference type, similar to a class, which can contain only constants, method signatures, and nested types. There are no method bodies. Interfaces cannot be instantiated—they can only be implemented by classes or extended by other interfaces. In Java, a class can inherit from only one class but it can implement more than one interface. | Superclass Instance Method | Superclass Static Method | Subclass Instance Method | Overrides | Generates a compile-time error | Subclass Static Method | Generates a compile-time error | Hides | An abstract class is a class that is declared abstract. Abstract classes cannot be instantiated, but they can be subclassed. It can contain abstract methods that did not have implemented. Subclasses then provide the implementations for the abstract methods. An abstract method is a method that is declared without an implementation (without braces, and followed by a semicolon), like this: Except for the Object class, a class has exactly one direct superclass. A class inherits fields and methods from all its superclasses, whether direct or indirect. A subclass can override methods that it inherits, or it can hide fields or methods that it inherits. (Note that hiding fields is generally bad programming practice.) The Object class is the top of the class hierarchy. All classes are descendants from this class and inherit methods from it. Useful methods inherited from Object include toString(), equals(), clone(), and getClass()...

...GREEN EYES (Photo: Roger Cabello) There's a reason Irish eyes are always smiling—they're drop-dead gorgeous. And these six makeup shades—shimmering taupe, silver, violet, and more—will make others go green with envy. Taupe Shadow: Every makeup bag needs the right neutral eye shadow, and for women with green eyes, makeup artist Erica Whelan swears by taupe. "The warmer undertones are more flattering than ashy brown," she said. Plus, one that has a little sparkle will bring out golden flecks in the irises. Our pick? CoverGirl Eye Enhancers in Tapestry Taupe. (Photo: Roger Cabello)Slate Gray Liner: Heavy black liner can look severe on light eyes, especially in the daytime, Whelan says. A creamy charcoal pencil (like Wet n Wild Idol Eyes Crème Shadow Pencil in Graphite) is a softer, less overpowering alternative. (Photo: Roger Cabello)Every Shade of Purple: We've said before that purple flatters every eye color (which is true), but it's extra gorgeous on green eyes. "It goes back to the color wheel," Whelan said. "Green's complementary color is red, so any shadow with red undertones really makes green eyes pop." Lavender, violet, aubergine—no shades are off limits. We love all three hues in Shiseido Makeup Luminizing Satin Eye Color Trio in VI 308. For the most eye-catching results, concentrate purple shadow close to the lash line. (Photo: Roger Cabello)Espresso Liner: A dash of brown eyeliner has the same smoldering effect as black, without the harshness...

...5. Advantages and Disadvantages of Using Participant Observation DeMUNCK and SOBO (1998) provide several advantages of using participant observation over other methods of data collection. These include that it affords access to the "backstage culture" (p.43); it allows for richly detailed description, which they interpret to mean that one's goal of describing "behaviors, intentions, situations, and events as understood by one's informants" is highlighted (p.43); and it provides opportunities for viewing or participating in unscheduled events. DeWALT and DeWALT (2002) add that it improves the quality of data collection and interpretation and facilitates the development of new research questions or hypotheses (p.8). [13] DeMUNCK and SOBO also share several disadvantages of using participation as a method, including that sometimes the researcher may not be interested in what happens out of the public eye and that one must rely on the use of key informants. The MEAD-FREEMAN2)controversy illustrates how different researchers gain different understanding of what they observe, based on the key informant(s) used in the study. Problems related to representation of events and the subsequent interpretations may occur when researchers select key informants who are similar to them or when the informants are community leaders or marginal participants (DeMUNCK & SOBO, 1998). To alleviate this potential bias problem, BERNARD (1994) suggests pretesting informants or selecting participants...

...Activity 1.1.4 Pulley Drives and Sprockets | | Introduction Pulleys and sprockets achieve the same tasks as gears by transferring power through rotary motion. Depending on how pulleys and sprockets are applied, speed, direction, and torque can be modified within the system. Pulleys and sprockets are both used in everyday machines ranging from industrial applications to moving printer heads within a desktop printer. Typically, belts and pulleys are easier to manufacture, lighter weight, and less expensive to purchase than sprockets and chains. Although chains and sprockets are more difficult to manufacture and often noisier, they have the advantage of not slipping as easily and tend to be more durable than a belt and pulley system. Procedure In this activity you will learn about belt and pulley systems and sprocket and chain systems. You will calculate ratios of examples of both systems in a lab environment. Belt and Pulley Systems A driver pulley (input) powers one or more driven pulleys (output). The pulleys are connected by belts. The ratios are based on the relationship between the different pulleys. As shown in Figure 1, pulleys manipulate torque and speed. | | Figure 1 The ratios of belt and pulley systems are the same as for gears. The exception is that there are no teeth on a pulley to count, so you must rely on the diameter of each pulley. It is common for multiple pulleys to be used with a single belt as seen in Figure 2.

...Today’s communication methods are various and sometimes complex. Everything from paper and pens to computer communication systems, modern communication has come a long way since our parents’ days. We can take our phones with us and keep up on current events like the recent earthquake in Japan, or check our electronic mail, talk to someone from around the world, and even get information on ourselves. In the communication era we are so connected to the rest of society that we almost never stop communicating to someone. Healthcare uses a lot of different communication channels. We have focused on verbal vs. non-verbal, EMR and e-mail. Verbal communication is a major factor in an office setting, weather it is in the health care industry or any other office setting. Before a health care worker performs any medical procedure or care task with a patient, it's important they use verbal communication to inform the patient. This allows the patient to know what to expect. Verbal communication can also be used by the patient to inform the health care worker how they are feeling, what concerns they have and any other questions the patient may have. Non-verbal communication in the health care setting comes from eyes, hands and other parts of the body. Providing eye contact, not crossing the arms and leaning in when talking to a patient are non-verbal ways to communicate you care. Non-verbal communication is usually understood as the process of sending and receiving wordless message....

...Final Project: Crisis in Rwanda Rhonda K. Dasher Walden University FPSY6740-01 Dr. Tracy Mallett November 17, 2013 Abstract The following review is based on the 1994 genocide which occurred in the small sovereign state of Rwanda, with a specific concentration on the rape victims and the consequences of the attacks. The review will describe the crisis intervention approach as well as any legal, ethical, or multicultural considerations concerning the crisis. Followed by an assessment of the impact of the victims as well as the global community will be offered. Furthermore a description of crisis intervention skills and strategies which would be best suited for this particular crisis and the potential for long term effects including risk and resilience factors. The review will conclude with trends or possible research related to the crisis in Rwanda. Crisis in Rwanda President Clinton once stated “each bloodletting hastens the next, and as the value of human life is degraded and violence becomes tolerated, the unimaginable becomes more conceivable” (Goodreads, 2013). On April 7, 1994 madness swept through Rwanda as a mass genocide began, the slaughter of thousands of men, women, and children would continue for the next 100 days. The mass killings were only part of the story of what was occurring in Rwanda, thousands of women and young girls were raped and sexually tortured. For those that survived the consequences of the aftermath were significant, in many cases...

...FIRST INDO-PAK WAR (1947-49) The first war between the two neighbours broke out soon after their independence in 1947. Armed Pathans from the North-West Frontier Province of Pakistan entered the territory of Maharaja Hari Singh of Kashmir, who was yet undecided on the issue of accession to either India or Pakistan. Indian military help was sought by the Maharaja to fend off the invasion. Forces arrived on October 27, after the Maharaja decided on accession of Kashmir to Indian Union. Despite early successes, the Indian Army suffered a setback in December because of logistical problems. Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (Azad Kashmir) troops forced Indian army to retreat from the border areas. Following spring, the Indian side mounted another offensive to recapture some of the ground that it had lost. As the conflict escalated, the India realised the war could not be ended unless Pakistani support to occupied Kashmir forces was stopped. Accordingly, India filed a complaint against Pakistan at the United Nations on December 31, 1948, despite some opposition from within the Cabinet. In August, the UN Commission for India and Pakistan called for an end to hostilities with a truce, to be followed by a referendum for self-determination among Kashmiris. Both the parties agreed to the UN resolution. The UN Security Council eventually brought about a ceasefire between Pakistani and Indian troops on January 1, 1949. In all, 1,500 soldiers died on each side during the war, which left...

...9. Autumn 1835-June 1836 This work was written to fulfill Robert’s dream of composing something for Moscheles in homage and consequently dedicated to him. In the autumn of 1835, Robert made Moscheles personal acquaintance who looked at this work (which at the time was originally intended as a concerto without orchestra) and frankly commented that it “did not fulfill the requirements of a concerto thought it possessed the characteristic attributes of a grand sonata in the manner of Beethoven and Weber.” It follows that Robert reformed and renamed this work as a sonata to better suit its character. Chissell also points out that ‘In subject-matter, however, the Sonata is wholly Clara’s. During its composition Schumann had faced up to the truth of his love for her, and had broken off his engagement with Ernestine, which would account for the music’s tone of high romantic tumult. But more specifically the slow movement is a set of variations on an ‘Andantino de Clara Weick’ bringing her ‘motto’ theme, the falling figure of 5 notes, out into the open…This theme generates the greater part of the sonata. Little else in Robert’s piano music is quite a monothematic as this work.’ Clara’s motto theme of 5 falling notes, C-B-A-G-F Sonata in F minor, Op. 14 10. 1836 Learning from Liszt that plans were afoot to erect a monument of one of his idols, the late Beethoven, Robert composed this work as a means of raising money towards this end. Accordingly, he was inspired...

...There’s no metaphysics on earth like chocolates’. When the Portuguese bard, Fernando Pessoa, uttered these words, sometime during the early 20th century, the Cadburys and Nestles of the world hadn’t even seen the dawn of the day in India! But, of late, these two major choco giants have been making Pessoa’s words felt in India. So, where Pessoa’s claim was restricted only to poetry or prose at the most, Cadbury and Nestle have proved in practical that chocolates are the most inevitable indulgence of all times. In the realm of advertising, the business of chocolate marketing stands at a figure of Rs.145 crore. And with that kind of money, the space becomes all the more interesting to watch out for, more so for the marketers. If we continue to let the numbers do the talking for sometime, we will get to know some dark chocolaty facts, like, Cadbury leads the Indian Chocolate market with a 70% share of the choco-pie, while Nestle occupies only 25% of the choco chunk. Interestingly, even with less than half of the former’s share, Nestle appears as the second leader in the entire arena and hence becomes the second pivotal player in the market. But that’s not the reason why they become this issue’s anointed marketers at war. In fact they have attained the status for being aggressive marketers of their respective chocolate variants for a consistently long duration without fail. An attack from one side has rarely gone unnoticed and not being retaliated with utmost valour from the counterpart...
