Scholarship: Actuarial Foundation Curtis E. Huntington Memorial Scholarship

Deadline: June 16, 2017

Your art is so amazing. I want to get better at art myself, but I have so little time with school and other extracurriculars that I end up not being able to practice. Do you have any advice?

There is always time for things you’re passionate about. It might just mean taking a step back and reorganising priorities, or maybe sleeping an hour less each night. I work three days a week as a digital designer, the rest of the days I work freelance, and pretty much every spare minute I have has something to do with art (minus the occasional catch-up with friends and family or rummaging through marketplaces on the way to my studio). I’m very fortunate that my life revolves around something I’m in love with, and once you finish school being able to prioritise what you love will be a lot easier, but a common mistake people make is using institutional education as an excuse to not pursue what they love. I’ve been creating and working commercially as a freelancer and selling my work internationally throughout my whole university experience. For me, it wasn’t that I didn’t have time for art, it was more that I was having so much fun and learning so much independently that university was getting in the way of the path I was carving for myself. From what I gather you’re in high school with a lot of extra curricular’s, so don’t feel too much pressure to create unless you feel compelled to. Because if you compelled to, you will. And on top of that you have plenty of time to discover yourself artistically when you finish school. If you’re still stressed about it, find blocks of waiting-time (being on public transport, lunch breaks, in between your extra curricular commitments) because those are times where you can push yourself to fill your sketchbook to the brim with magical ideas that later, when you have enough time, you can bring to life.

Hi there! One of my younger siblings just came home with three (!!) goldfish after a science unit, and of course, we're woefully unprepared- I know about the 30 gallons per fish rule, but do you have any suggestions for what kind of basic set-up would be best for them? I only know about betta fish, haha...

Uh oh! Arguably the most important part of goldfish ownership is having a good filter and doing regular water changes. Goldfish are messy little critters. I don’t have any filter recommendations, however… So if any of my followers keep goldfish or know what a good filter type/brand is, that would be great. Otherwise, a basic setup is really just a tank, or one of those plastic fish ponds. I’ve read that the best ‘substrate’ to use is either none (bare bottom), tile, or larger river rocks, as sand or typical gravel trap and hold ammonia, which goldfish produce in high amounts, making it harder to keep the water clean. You can use just about anything as decoration that you want, so long as your fish isn’t going to swallow it or get stuck in it. You can try planting the tank, if you want, but don’t be surprised if your fish eat the plants.

Good luck, anon!

Research Project - Gapminder - Internet User Rate

Research objective

Identification of the demographic factors influencing the internet user rate.

Description 

After going through the codebook for GAPMINDER, I have decided that I am interested in internet proliferation. I am not sure what all variables apart from 1 or 2, I will use in my study, so, for now, I will include all of the relevant variable in my personal codebook

While Internet users are increasing at fast face I want to understand what all factors lead to internet usage.is it the income of a person or the urbanization or the female employ rate is associated with the internet Users.

Research Question 

What is the relationship of Internet user rate with the following factors?

a) Income per person

b) Female Employment Rate

d) Life Expectancy

e) Electricity Consumption

f) Urban Population

g) Political Nature of the country

Hypothesis

H1a. There is a positive relationship between Internet User Rate and Income per person

H1c. There is a positive relationship between Internet User Rate and Employment Rate

H1d. There is a positive relationship between Internet User Rate and Life Expectancy 

H1e. There is a positive relationship between Internet User Rate and Electricity Consumption

H1f. There is a positive relationship between Internet User Rate and Urban Population

H1g. There is a positive relationship between Internet User Rate and Political Nature of the country

Literature Review

Keywords for construct identification search on Google Scholar - demographics factors influencing internet user rate, demographics factors influencing internet usage, factors influencing internet usage, Internet User rate, Internet growth, Internet Development, 

Demographic and motivation variables associated with Internet usage activities  by  Thompson S.H. Teo (1991)

Scholarship: 2017 Cystic Fibrosis Patients Scholarship List

Deadline: Varies

Link: http://usascholarships.com/scholarships-cystic-fibrosis-patients/

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration authorized use of the Flourish Pediatric Esophageal Atresia Anastomosis, a first-of-its-kind medical device to treat infants up to one year old for a birth defect that causes a gap in their esophagus, called esophageal atresia. The device uses magnets to pull the upper and lower esophagus together, closing the gap and allowing food to enter the stomach. It is not for use in infants who also have a tracheoesophageal fistula, an abnormal connection between the esophagus and the windpipe (trachea). During the procedure to insert the Flourish device, doctors insert two catheters, one through the mouth and one through the stomach. The magnetic ends of the two catheters attract each other, and this attraction pulls the two ends of the esophagus together over several days, closing the gap and forming a connection. Once the catheters are removed, the infant can begin to feed by mouth. The FDA reviewed data for the Flourish device through the humanitarian device exemption (HDE) process. A Humanitarian Use Device (HUD) is a device that is intended to benefit patients by treating or diagnosing a disease or condition that affects not more than 8,000 individuals in the U.S. per year.

AP stands for Advanced Placement and it’s this program in the U.S. where high school students can take college level classes and then there’s an exam at the end of the year that we have to pass in order to get the college credit.
