Clinical epidemiology to guide your opinions and actions

The Pew Center on Global Climate Change reported in that the number of flood damages in the Northeast continues to rise. In Wilkes-Barre, PA, 75,000 people were evacuated as the Susquehanna River crested at a record of 42.7 feet. An estimated 5,400 homes and business suffered some sort of flood damage during that event, and 124 sewage treatment plants were affected by the flood, with 14 of them spilling raw sewage into waterways. Reports indicate that mold infestation, which can cause adverse health effects, is now a major concern among residents in Pennsylvania and New York. One organization, the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, will be preparing a report for citizens in the affected areas on this issue. Write eight  page papers in which you:

1. Formulate a plan on how you would use clinical epidemiology to guide your opinions and actions on dealing with this issue.

2. Propose three  types of molds that could develop from flood damage and the associated health risks with each type of mold.

Defining stock and debtors system

Under Stock and Debtors System, the head office does not open a Branch Account in its books. It maintains a few control accounts for recording the various branch transactions. These accounts usually are: (i) Branch Stock Account, (ii) Branch Debtors Account, (iii) Branch Expenses Account, (iv) Branch Cash Account (v) Goods sent to Branch Account, and (vi) Branch Fixed Assets Account. At the end of the accounting year, it prepares the Branch Adjustment Account and the Branch Profit & toss Account. This system is used only when goods are invoiced at , selling price which the branch is not allowed to vary. Let us now study the working of each account opened by the head office when such a system is followed.

The goods sent to branches and the sales returns are shown on its debit side, and the sales (both cash and c...

Signed [Ken Smith]." For the next 3 years, he faithfully makes the weekly payments, and then stops. Letisha, upset that Ken broke his word to her, sues him seeking to reinstate the payments. Was there a valid contract formed in this instance? Why or why not? 2. Imagine that Alexandra promises to give Rasputin $1000 if he stops drinking alcohol for one week.
