	A MODULAR APPROACH
		Direct marketing, relationship marketing, and database marketing are major buzz words in the fields of consumer marketing and business-to-business marketing.
		Direct marketing often involves the use of direct response advertising (typically there is a phone number and/or address in the advertisement) to generate a response (e.g., sale, inquiry, donation, membership).
		Relationship marketing refers to a philosophy that a company that wishes to succeed should develop a strong, lifetime (or at least a very long-term) relationship with their customers.

	TAKIS FOTOPOULOS - Direct and Economic Democracy in Ancient Athens
		the relationship of the Hectemoroi was not simply the result of economic pressures and debts, but expressed a traditional social status of inferiority which came into existence during the Greek Adark ages@ (1100-800 B.C.), when the weak and the poor offered their services to the powerful in return for their protection.
		These unequal relationships at the economic level are reproduced at the political one, where the tendency for concentration of political power in the European Community institutions enables the economically stronger areas to impose directly their will on the weaker ones.
		Direct local economic democracy, in conjunction with the development of forms of direct local political democracy, could become the basis for a new form of democracy that might constitute, after 2,500 years, the real completion of the Athenian democracy.

	Direct Relationship Shown Between Arterial Elasticity, Erectile Dysfunction (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Not surprisingly, Dr. Prisant and his colleagues found a direct correlation between arterial stiffness and erectile dysfunction.
		In addition to being hypertensive, 43 percent of Dr. Prisant’s study participants were smokers or ex-smokers, 24 percent were diabetic and 50 percent had high lipid or fat levels in their blood.
		The study also showed an even stronger direct relationship between age and a low SHIM score and that the longer men were hypertensive, the greater their risk of erectile dysfunction.

	DMA Containment Model (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		The relationship between a container and a contained object is modeled explicitly in DMA with the introduction of a third object, the ContainmentRelationship object, and its subclasses DirectContainmentRelationship and ReferentialContainmentRelationship.
		However, direct containment is a one-to-many relationship (each child object has only one parent, while a parent can have many children), so it is possible to express direct containment via a property on the child object which directly references the parent, rather than going through an intermediate relationship object.
		When an RDBMS is used for this purpose, then for N:M relationships a natural way to model the data relationships in the database schema is to have a table where the rows of the relationship are stored, and to perform a join between tables as illustrated in the sample code in the appendix.

		Once a hierarchical trust relationship traverses a direct trust ancestor and an optional direct trust peer, it cannot traverse to an ancestor of the peer cell.
		Cell A has a direct trust peer relationship with cell B, and cell B has a direct trust peer relationship with cell C. Cell A does not have a transitive trust relationship with cell C because to do so would traverse more than one direct trust peer relationship (A to B and B to C).
		Note that it is not required to traverse a direct trust peer relationship to have a transitive trust relationship.

	Direct and Inverse Relationships (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Since many physical relationships in electrostatics, electrodynamics, thermodynamics, etc. are expressed by mathematical equations, being able to see qualitatively the relationships between variables is often crucial to an understanding of many technologies.
		One way to picture this relationship that doesn't involve any math is to think about a seesaw or teeter-totter that is in balance with one child on each end.
		By either plugging in a few values or recognizing the form of the equation, you can easily determine whether a relationship is direct or inverse.

		When it is positive in value, the relationship is direct (that is, those with high scores on one variable tend to have high scores on the other variable and those with low scores on one variable tend to have Iow scores on the other).
		In a direct relationship, the closer r is to 1.00, the stronger the relationship; the closer it is to 0.00, the weaker the relationship.
		In an inverse relationship, the closer r is to -1.00, the stronger the relationship; the closer it is to 0.00, the weaker the relationship.

		By maintaining sperm concentrations at 100-200 million spermatozoa cells per insemination, researchers were able to decrease embryo mortality and increase hatchability.
