Conditions upon which the healthy growth of the population of young colonies depend

Mr. Johnston refers to Mr. Green's paper in relation to immigration to Tasmania and predicts that: assuming that the annual rate of growth of population during the last decade (1'64) will be maintained without any material change throughout the next 100 years, the following table has been prepared by me showing the estimated population m single years for the first ten, and thereafter in intervals of ten years. The population of the Commonwealth is given for comparison at intervals of ten years. (see table presented in the pdf)

Health Conversion Foundations

The phenomenon of nonprofit to for-profit conversion in the health industry represents the largest redeployment of charitable assets in history. Because the converting nonprofit health organization is presumed to have provided public benefit before the conversion and because the nonprofit assets have been built by and on behalf of the public, state laws typically require that converting organizations preserve their charitable assets in order to maintain the level of public benefit provided before the conversion. Often these assets are used to endow a new foundation. These foundations -- commonly called conversion foundations -- are the subject of this paper. Over the past two decades, billions of dollars in charitable assets have transferred from the health care industry into organized philanthropy, and billions more will no doubt do so.The trend of health conversions is a very recent but quickly accelerating one: The first conversion foundation was created in 1973, and over the next ten years, only four were created; most were established in the mid-1980s or mid- to late 1990s. Most are fewer than ten years old: 59% were formed between 1994 and 1999, and an additional 11% since 1999

Nonlinear wave equations

The analysis of nonlinear wave equations has experienced a dramatic growth in the last ten years or so. The key factor in this has been the transition from linear analysis, first to the study of bilinear and multilinear wave interactions, useful in the analysis of semilinear equations, and next to the study of nonlinear wave interactions, arising in fully nonlinear equations. The dispersion phenomena plays a crucial role in these problems. The purpose of this article is to highlight a few recent ideas and results, as well as to present some open problems and possible future directions in this field

An Assessment of the India Soy Protein Market

This research is a first step in determining India's future need for soy-based protein products. The objective of this study is to determine India's protein demand over the next ten years. Then, using the per capita protein demand derived from this study, along with income, population, and dietary information, per capita soy protein consumption was estimated for the same time period. It was found that income growth has a large positive affect on protein consumption.Demand and Price Analysis, Food Consumption/Nutrition/Food Safety,

Army Decade in Space

In the twelve short years since the announcement of the SMDC-ONE satellite initiative by Lieutenant General Kevin Campbell, then Commanding General of U.S. Army Space and Missile Defense Command (SMDC), SMDC has put in place an active program of satellite technology development and a Low Earth Orbit Investment Strategy that holds great promise for providing low-cost, responsive data from space as the next major evolution in technology to enable Multi-Domain Operations for the Army of 2028 and beyond. The first fruits of that initiative were seen ten years ago with launch and successful mission of the first SMDC-ONE satellite. This small satellite strategy has gained traction with Army and DoD leadership who embrace the small satellite paradigm. This paper discusses Army progress and lessons learned in the past ten years of small satellite efforts, discusses relationships with other organizations and looks forward to potential capabilities enabled by technology advancements and innovative partnerships

Wage scarring among unlucky European cohorts. ESRI Working Paper 668 June 2020.

This paper examines how starting one’s career in a weak labour market affects future labour market outcomes using data from 13 European countries. Income losses, so called scarring effects, are found to be solely levied on college graduates. For every percentage point increase in the national unemployment rate at graduation, college graduates incur wage penalties of 2% one year later. These penalties are over 1% for the next eight years but are zero by year ten. During the Great Recession, college graduates in countries who experienced harsh sovereign debt crises were particularly affected. In Portugal, Italy, Ireland, Greece and Spain new graduates with a college education faced wage losses of between 12 and 23% in each of the first ten years of their career

The Elimination of the Sexual Exploitation of Children: Two Policy Briefings

The Oak Foundation child-abuse programme has funded and supported a range of civil society actors over the course of the last ten years, with the aim of reducing the incidence of the sexual exploitation of children, focusing primarily on work in East Africa, Eastern and Central Europe, Brazil and India. The Foundation is committed to expanding this work, focusing 50 percent of resources over the next five years, within two priority areas: * The elimination of the sexual exploitation of children; * The positive engagement of men and boys in the fight against the sexual abuse of children. Under the first of these priorities Oak Foundation requested Knowing Children to produce two documents to guide a strategic-planning meeting of the child-abuse team in mid-October 2011: * Reducing societal tolerance of sexual exploitation of children; * Preventing children's entry into all forms of sexual exploitation

The ATLAS upgrade program

After the first successful LHC run in 2010-2012, plans are actively advancing for a series of upgrades leading eventually to about above times the design-luminosity in about ten years. The larger luminosity will allow to perform precise measurements of the just discovered Higgs boson and to continue searching for new physics beyond the Standard Model. Coping with the high instantaneous and integrated luminosity will be a great challenge for the ATLAS detector and will require changes in most of the subsystems, specially those at low radii and large pseudorapidity, as well as in its trigger architecture. Plans to consolidate and, whenever possible, to improve the physics performance of the current detector over the next decade are summarized in this paper.Comment: 8 pages, proceedings for LHCP201
