The development of the internal-combustion engine caused fundamental changes in urban land-use patterns. The transformation from the core-dominated city to the modern suburbanized city took only about 50 years. Given the rapid pace of technological change, it seems likely that some future innovation will cause another transformation of cities. Given your knowledge of science fiction and fact, describe an innovation that would cause fundamental changes in the spatial structure of cities

During the 1800s, and well into the 1900s, families took care of their own members whenever possible. Several generations lived together, with the younger generation taking care of the older and vice versa. Post 1900s, the joint family system started disintegrating.
What factors led to disintegration of the joint family system?
What has been the impact of this disintegration on aging people and long-term care?
Did disintegration have any benefits for health service organizations? Why or why not?
At the same time this shift occurred in the family structure, health care organizations were experiencing continuous changes in their operating styles. The long-term care system took some time to catch up with the changing nature of businesses. In the 1990s and early 2000s, long-term care was seen to experience several turbulent changes, particularly related to its operations, management, and structure. Research the South University Online Library and the Internet to find information on the changes in the long-term care system in the United States and respond to the following questions:
How have the operations, management, and structural changes of the 1990s and early 2000s impacted the long-term care system today?
What are the strengths and weaknesses of the present long-term care system in the United States?

Calculating the Direct Labor Rate Variance and the Direct Labor Efficiency Variance
9.1: Guillermo has found a typical oil change takes 24 minutes and 6.2 quarts of oil are used. In June, Guillermo had 980 oil changes.
Refer to Cornerstone Exercise 9.1. Guillermo's Oil and Lube Company provided the following information for the production of oil changes during the month of June:
Actual number of oil changes performed: 980
Actual number of direct labor hours worked: 386 hours
Actual rate paid per direct labor hour: $14.50
Standard rate per direct labor hour: $14.00
Required:
1. Calculate the direct labor rate variance (LRV) and the direct labor efficiency variance (LEV) for June using the formula approach.
2. Calculate the direct labor rate variance (LRV) and the direct labor efficiency variance (LEV) for June using the graphical approach.
3. Calculate the total direct labor variance for oil changes for June.
4. What if the actual wage rate paid in June was $12.40? What impact would that have had on the dirct labor rate variance (LRV)? On the direct labor efficiency variance (LEV)?

1. In cases where the markets are too thin for viable open-market operations, or the monetary base cannot be controlled for some reason, the monetary authorities often attempt to limit the creation of reserves by the banking system through the imposition of, or changes in, reserve ratios against demand deposits and sometimes also against other types of deposits.
Select one:
True
False
2. In the United States, the discount rate is frequently below the market short interest rates; since banks can make a profit from borrowing from the Fed and then buying market instruments, keeping the discount rate below the market rates becomes an incentive for commercial banks to borrow from the Fed.
Select one:
True
False
3. Since the early 1990s, the most common tools of monetary policy in developed economies have been changes in interest rates, supported by changes in the money supply induced by open-market operations and borrowing from the central bank.
Select one:
True
False
4. In the Western economies, changes in the required reserve ratios are now either no longer available as an instrument of monetary policy or not used in practice for this purpose.
Select one:
True
False

The Texas State Legislature is considered a part-time or amateur legislature because of its infrequent meeting schedule of 140 days every other year. The part-time nature is meant to preserve the idea of a citizen legislature. Meeting biennially has advantages and disadvantages, but it is the system that we have become accustomed to. One of the drawbacks is that many professions do not afford the flexibility of time off to serve in the legislature. Think of your average store clerk, bank teller, or teacher.
Are these professions that allow for the equivalent of 4 months off every other year to serve in the House or Senate?
Additionally, the low wage does not allow for legislators to leave their professions so that they can focus full time on lawmaking. Do you think we need to make any changes to allow more people of different professional backgrounds to serve, or do you think it is fine the way it is? If you think we need to make changes, what changes would you make and why? If the sessionis fine the way it is, justify why.
What changes would you make to open up the legislature or do you believe that we need to keep the time and pay limited. Make sure you explain your answers
