Interstate 44 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Interstate 44 is one of five interstates built to bypass U.S. Route 66; this highway covers the section between St. Louis and Oklahoma City. I-44 was later extended southwest of Oklahoma City along the existing H.E. Bailey Turnpike, thus raising the milemarkers by about 100. I-44 in Oklahoma is a toll road most of the way, paralleled by former U.S. As U.S. 66 was being bypassed by I-44, the Route 66 Association requested the designation Interstate 66 for I-44 from St. Louis to Oklahoma City. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Interstate_44   (634 words)

Just 44: Number of women MPs Looking at the composition of the 14th Lok Sabha where the number of women has gone down by five to 44, women empowerment does not quite seem to be well on the track. The number of women elected to Lok Sabha in 1952 was 22, with the house having a total strength of 489. The number increased to 34 in the third Lok Sabha election. www.rediff.com /news/2004/may/26women.htm   (503 words)

The Number of Child Care Arrangements Used by Children Under Five: Variation Across States Relatively little is known about the reasons behind the use of multiple child care arrangements; parents may desire to expose children to a number of different environments, or they may need more than one arrangement to cover all of the hours of their employment. We sum the number of arrangement types that each preschool child is in each week on a regular basis and examine the proportion of children in one, two, or three or more child care arrangements. Therefore, it is useful to examine the number of child care arrangements used by children under three in contrast to the number used by three- and four-year-olds. www.urban.org /publications/310268.html   (4174 words)

World Telephone Numbering Guide UK is making 10-digit national numbers standard; that is, numbers will have 3-digit area codes followed by 7-digit numbers, or 4-digit area codes followed by 6-digit numbers. Numbers in the +44 7 range are to be used to identify mobile, paging and personal numbers. Numbers in the +44 8 range are to be used to identify specially-priced and toll-free services. www.wtng.info /wtng-44-uk.html   (1350 words)

April 2002 - Vietnam's Current Economic Indicators and links to historical references This number is derived by taking the most recently announced GDP for year 2000 of US$30.6 billion and dividing by the estimated total population of 79 million. However, as the GDP numbers are substantially under those of the "news" media, we suspect the GDP numbers are the more accurate. numbers of projects seem to decrease or increase without regard to the value of the projects or the steel in the ground. www.vvg-vietnam.com /economics_40.htm   (1731 words)

eBMJ -- Statistics at Square One: Survival analysis   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08) Recent examples include time to discontinuation of a contraceptive, maximum dose of bronchoconstrictor required to reduce a patient's lung function to 80% of baseline, time taken to exercise to maximum tolerance, time that a transdermal patch can be left in place, time for a leg fracture to heal. The survival curve is unchanged at the time of a censored observation, but at the next event after the censored observation the number of people "at risk" is reduced by the number censored between the two events. The effect of the censored observations is to reduce the numbers at risk, but they do not contribute to the expected numbers. bmj.bmjjournals.com /statsbk/12.shtml   (1478 words)

Nassau County Civil Service Commission - Physical Fitness Screening The score is based upon the number of lines crossed in 10 seconds. Starting from the long lying position on the back, with knees bent at less than 90 degrees, fingers interlaced and placed behind the neck, the candidate performs by raising the upper part of the body forward far enough to touch the elbows to the knees and then returns to the starting position. Note that it is not necessary to reach the minimum satisfactory achievement level of 4 for each test item but all candidates must achieve a final weighted score of 4 or better to qualify. www.nassaucivilservice.com /NCCSWeb/homepage.nsf/WebSiteContent/Physical+Fitness+Screening?OpenDocument&11142004163420   (314 words)

Fiscal Impact Analysis; from "Community Guide to Development Impact Analysis" by Mary Edwards There are a number of standard approaches to choose from in conducting a fiscal impact analysis, ranging from a per-capita multiplier method to a case study method which relies on local interviews. Development costs are then estimated by multiplying per capita costs by the total number of people associated with the development and per employee costs, by the number of workers associated with the development. A number of studies have shown that the employment intensity of nonresidential development prompts public service expenditures, so a nonresidential development with more employees than another will generate more costs to the local unit. www.lic.wisc.edu /shapingdane/facilitation/all_resources/impacts/analysis_fiscal.htm   (5379 words)

Laboratory Primate Newsletter, Volume 44, Number 2 For the purposes of this review, statistical data on the number of nonhuman primates used in scientific procedures in each primate-user country were extracted from animal use statistics for 2001, published in 2003 (Council of Europe, 2002; Home Office, 2002) and the uses and sources of these primates are examined. The number of primates used in each experimental procedure must be determined by balancing the need to minimize both harm (Refinement) and the number of animals used (Reduction). Annual increases or decreases in the total number of primates used may not be reflective of changes in welfare overall, but simply the balance between reducing numbers, minimizing harm, and the importance of scientific validity. www.brown.edu /Research/Primate/lpn44-2.html   (18663 words)

Sociobiology: Volume 44, Number 1, 2004 An increasing number of studies have uncovered evidence of polygyny or polyandry in the ant genus Camponotus. Computer simulations, using a range of cluster factors, replications and numbers of termites per replication, were conducted, and the Type I error rate was calculated when a cluster center (a point corresponding to a random angle θ and radius ρ value within a circle) and random ìtermiteî positions about the cluster center were plotted. We recommend an analysis where the number of insects on the treated or untreated side is recorded, then the dish is designated as ìrepelledî or ìnot repelled,î and the number of repelled dishes is analyzed. www.csuchico.edu /biol/Sociobiology/volume/sociobiologyv44n12004.html   (3208 words)

Sociobiology: Volume 44, Number 2, 2004 The number and the area of colonies of leaf-cutting ants were evaluated with two sampling methods from May to July 1998 in a Eucalyptus plantation in the Municipality of Montes Claros, State of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The area sampled, the time spent for sampling and the number and area of colonies of leaf-cutting ants were obtained with strips at fixed distances and random sampling. The number of taxa registered are: 22 genera (of which 10 are exclusively fossil) and 34 species, 4 ichnogenera and 4 ichnospecies. www.csuchico.edu /biol/Sociobiology/volume/sociobiologyv44n22004.html   (3847 words)

Crusade The new stranding brings to 28 the number of dead dolphins reported in Cornwall this year, with a further 14 in south Devon. Mine Collet said the number of dead dolphins seen on French beaches had increased six-fold since the introduction of pelagic nets at the end of the 1980s. They pick up everything that crosses their path, including the dolphins, which are asphyxiated because, as mammals, they need to come up to the surface to breathe every ten to 15 minutes. www.idw.org /html/crusade.html   (1245 words)

DVD Talk > Reviews > Napoleon - Collector's Edition The glossy overview had lots of battle scenes (in an effort to gain a larger audience no doubt) and lavish sets, along with some normally excellent actors, but the scope of the project itself, much like Napoleon's vaunted ego in his latter years, was it's own undoing. The movie was based on a book by author Max Gallo who detailed a number of facets of Napoleon's life (with some controversy as to it's historical accuracy). A number of these rate a mini-series all their own as would many of the battles, the love he had for Josephine, and even the writing of his memoirs. www.dvdtalk.com /reviews/read.php?ID=6057   (781 words)
