	aw_todarosmit_econdevelp_8\|Student Resources\|Chapter 5: Contemporary Models of Develo\|Key Concepts
		In the Roemer model, technological change is endogenously determined: economy wide capital stock affects industry-wide output (that is, increasing returns to scale may exist).
		The chapter continues on to describe and discuss models that posit that underdevelopment is the result of economic agents' failures to coordinate with each other.
		Rosenstein-Rodan's "big push" model is described and presented diagrammatically as an example.

	The Gyroverse Model
		In the gyroverse model, the universe consists of twelve dimensions that enable all parts of the universe to be only atomic distances from all other parts of the universe.
		The big bang theory is the predominant explanation for the origin of the universe.
		This caused the big bang theory to replace the steady state model, as the explanation of the universe's evolution.

	Tips For Little Riders Of Big Bikes
		To get a big bike off the side stand when it is leaning so much you can't easily pick it up, grip the front brake and clutch levers securely (whether the engine is running or not) and push the bike FORWARD as you try to bring it upright in one smooth movement.
		Be sure before you take your big bike on the road that you don't have pant-legs or chaps which will tangle on the peg as you put your feet down at a stop.
		Big bikes tend to have smoother engines and a somewhat different gear ratio from your smaller ride.

	SkyStream Networks (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		The PUSH model dramatically reduces the amount of bandwidth required to deploy a high-quality on-demand service and provides subscribers a better entertainment experience than existing approaches to VOD.
		PUSH VOD, whether in standard definition (SD) or HD, automatically pre-positions the most popular and/or personalized video content from a server at the network headend to hard-drive storage on a user’s set-top box during off-peak hours, where it can be played instantly, upon the user’s request.
		PUSH VOD can be offered as a stand-alone VOD service or as a complement to traditional VOD that features server-based storage and delivery of thousands of titles from the network headend.

	THE FALL AND RISE OF DEVELOPMENT ECONOMICS
		Lewis's surplus labor concept was the model that launched a thousand papers, even though surplus labor assumptions were already standard among development theorists, the empirical basis for assuming surplus labor was weak, and the idea of external economies/strategic complementarity is surely more interesting.
		He was able to show the essential simplicity of the weather's causes with a "model" that consisted of a dish-pan filled with water, placed on a slowly rotating turntable, with an electric heating element bent around the outside of the pan.
		For those who are impatient with modeling and prefer to strike out on their own into the richness that an uninhibited use of metaphor seems to open up, the advice is to stop and think.

		The new model developed by the Massey economists allows for multiple species to be included and also the relationships between species, such as that between predator and prey.
		In a paper they have written, the economists illustrate their work using the examples of a single species elephant model, a single species rhino model and a two-species elephant and rhino model.
		Dr Alexander is about to use the model in a South African programme to try and restore the populations of the African wild dog on private land.

	Push
		Except push on the Net is a little different, perhaps more like television-on-demand, because you can sometimes request specific content without having to wait for it to be broadcast at a specific time.
		The benefit of push is that the user doesn't have to go out and find items of interest--they instead tell a push client their interests, and that client acts like a receiving station which periodically asks push servers for information.
		The push model seems to assume that human beings are just hungry for a fixed set of information that fits a pre-defined set of preferences.

	Winchester Model 70 Stealth
		The Winchester model 70 Stealth is a direct replacement for their older "Heavy Varminter" and is advertised as a varmint rifle.
		That is the one big down side to mass produced rifles, you get a great rifle followed by a bad rifle, so be forewarned.
		The things I do not like about the Stealth is that it does not have the palm swell (like the Remington 700P) and it uses the push feed 70 action, I would prefer their claw feed, but the model 70 action is still a good action.

		In addition, this model offers plausible explanations for the empirical deviations of the Kuznets Curve and the Okunâ€™s Law as identified in the recent literature.

	PressThink: "Our Code is Falling to Pieces." Doug McGill on the Fading Mystique of an Objective Press
		Big journalism does need to be more fluid in its ability to correct mistakes, and that should be taken into account, but there definitely is an issue with losing authority and trust if you constantly have to admit mistakes publicly.
		The “he said, she said” model is stuck because (at least) one side won’t say what the reporters need them to say to create consensus.
		I humbly suggest that a new model might be better, one that takes people with actual knowledge and brings them into journalism as a second career, or even as a sideline.

	CNN - Judges pick China's top model - March 30, 1999

		Chinese designer Li Xin said her country's models could do very well in the international fashion world, and the push to develop Chinese clothing design has brought more attention to Zhou and other models.

	EconPapers: Banks as Catalysts of the Big Push
		In this paper we propose that banks may act as a 'catalyst' for the 'big push'.
		Our work is motivated by historic evidence that suggest an association between a 'big push' and the emergence of large banks.
		We develop a model based on Murphy, Shleifer and Vishny (1989) and show that a 'large' bank with sufficient market power can induce the 'big push' by coordinating the investments of a subset of firms in the economy.
