"political time" is different than ordinary time‚ in terms of resistance groups. For instance‚ the resistance fighters in Viet Nam fought first the French‚ in Indochina‚ then the Americans‚ from 1945 until 1975‚ for thirty years. How is it possible to motivate subordinates to fight that long? “Political time” differs from that of ordinary time in the amount of time it takes to reach an end result. As ordinary time may take anywhere from a few days to several years‚ “political time” refers to the

Geology 1203 Earth history Assignment: relative time Preamble: Understanding Earth history involves determining the sequence of geologic events which occurred over immense spans of time. The geological time scale that we use today was first developed in the 1800’s and is constantly being revised as our understanding improves. Geologists deal with time in two different ways: Relative Time - the occurrence of events is determined relative to one another (from oldest to most recent). This

What is time? According to Webster’s Dictionary‚ time is a nonspatial continuum in which events occur in apparently irreversible succession from the past through the present to the future. There are two distinct views on what time really is. One view is that time is linear and part of the fundamental structure of the universe‚ a dimension in which events occur in sequence‚ and time itself is something that can be measured. The other is that time is part of the fundamental intellectual structure along

The real question is‚ has the right been protected over time and it has. Before America was a nation‚ we were colonized by England. Safe to say that those were the worst years to be a colonist. They were the big dogs. England is the reason why America created the bill of rights. We had no rights when they

Full-time vs. Part-time Students There are many similarities and differences between full and part-time students. Each student is trying for the goal of educating themselves to become more successful in life. As students begin their education there is a sense of motivation and eagerness. Knowing the possible compensations and honor that comes with this achievement. There can be a feeling of tension and uncertainty that comes with this new adventure. If an individual does not become discarded

.2.3 Time series models Time series is an ordered sequence of values of a variable at equally spaced time intervals. Time series occur frequently when looking at industrial data. The essential difference between modeling data via time series methods and the other methods is that Time series analysis accounts for the fact that data points taken over time may have an internal structure such as autocorrelation‚ trend or seasonal variation that should be accounted for. A Time-series model explains

like to develop a model that will help allocate its technician’s time between service calls to regular contract customers and new customers. A maximum of 80 hours of technician time is available over the two-week period. To satisfy cash flow requirements‚ at least $800 in revenue must be generated through technician time during the two-week period. Technician time for regular customers generates $25 per hour. However‚ technician time for new customers only generates an average of $8 per hour because
