Unlike the accounting capital notes you have, the economic capital measure of capital that should have-to see capital accounting definitions see Capital (economics) -. In finance, primarily for financial services firms, the economic capital is the amount of “risk capital” determined on a realistic basis, that a firm requires to cover the risks est est running or collecting. Refers to the level of capital commensurate with the risks that the institution has-regardless of the existence of assets, is the probabilistic quantification of the amount of potential future losses. The use of a good economic capital model allows senior management to be prepared to anticipate potential problems. It is one of the factors of production that is represented by the goods necessary to produce wealth.

According to what he said Tomas Furmark researcher at Uppsala University in Sweden, “is the first time succeeded in uniting scientific research the presence of a genetic variation with the placebo effect.” A group of Swedish researchers conducted a particular experiment and found evidence to suggest that the famous “placebo effect” may have a genetic basis. The experimenters found that the presence of … Read the full article>>> here

treatments for obesity. 1923. Straddling the nineteenth and twentieth centuries developed three conceptions or medical paradigms: the anatomical (the origin of the disease is in the “injury”), the pathophysiological (searching for the origin in the ‘process’ altered) and etiologic ( or external causes), all heirs to the scientific model, mainly biologist. Whenever individual genius springs forth less overall impact and research based on interdisciplinary teams or dedicated to very specific searches. The twentieth century is the century of evidence-based medicine: the standard protocols of action, backed by scientific studies, being replaced with the views and personal experiences of each doctor, and get to give the body of knowledge physicians a global validity in an increasingly interconnected world.Among the most prominent physicians of this century include Sigmund Freud, the great revolutionary of psychiatry, Robert Koch discovered the bacillus that causes tuberculosis, Paul Ehrlich, the father of immunology, Harvey Williams Cushing, father of neurosurgery, or Alexander Fleming, discoverer of penicillin, which starts with the “antibiotic era” of medicine. In 1948 WHO was founded under the aegis of the UN, the first international medical organization specialized in managing policies for prevention, health promotion and intervention worldwide. And in this dense network of research teams and is developing overspecialized also a new way of understanding the disease, or rather, the sick, the thread of an awakening society environmentalism (understood as a social movement that aims to integrate the individual back the environment).The seventeenth to nineteenth centuries, deeply rationalist, endeavored to classify the organs, tissues and diseases and to establish the rules for the functioning of physiological and pathological processes. But the evidence of the complexity of human beings leads to the conclusion that no diseases but sick people. In this context develop models of health and disease proposed by the World Health Organization, and which incorporate psychological and social spheres to the biological determinants of health as people. In 1978 we celebrate the International Conference on Primary Health Care in Alma-Ata, which shows that statement, and the crucial importance of social measures (adequate supply of drinking water and food, vaccinations …) and primary health care level to improve the health of populations.The motto (ultimately unfulfilled) of this conference was Health for All by the year 2000. The technical medicine, capable of unlocking the secrets of the human body through devices such as MRI, has generated a social current “medicalized” in which problems and behaviors become diseases. This will achieve two objectives: to transfer the responsibility of the individual to “illness”, and leave the solution in the hands of the technique. However, in parallel with that evidence, the development of pharmacology at the industrial and economic has made the twentieth century medicine in the drug tax as an icon of health. Aspirin is synthesized by Felix Hoffmann in 1897 has become a symbol of the culture of this century.These contradictory features (a dehumanized medicine and commodified, but that has eradicated diseases like smallpox and polio and has successfully increased the average life expectancy over 70 years in most developed countries) are the synthesis of modern medicine. From Emil Kraepelin and Eugen Bleuler, Sigmund Freud and later, off one of the later branches of modern medicine: psychiatry. The first is the pioneer in proposing that psychiatric disorders are mainly caused by biological or genetic disorders. Bleuler made some fundamental contributions in clinical psychiatry (he should be the terms of schizophrenia and autism) and can say that Freud is the founder of the psychoanalytic movement.The psychoanalytic school, renewed by his disciples, has followed more or less force after the death of its founder and main ideas have transcended to psychiatry reached such disparate disciplines as art, religion, or anthropology becoming part general culture. Subsequently psychiatry collected through Karl Jaspers, the influences of phenomenology and existentialism and by John B. Watson, behaviorism. In the last decades of the twentieth century psychiatry developed a psychopharmacological school based on the premise that the mechanism of action of psychoactive drugs in turn revealed the pathophysiological mechanism secondary to psychiatric disorder thus approaching the neurophysiology.More technical achievements are worth mentioning are the blood transfusion carried out successfully for the first time in this century through the work on developing blood groups by Karl Landsteiner, or transplantation of organs, flag, not the first, but by the most successful media and its developers: Christiaan Barnard, first surgeon to successfully perform a heart transplant.

Infomed Draft 2.0 Infomed 2.0 is the name that summarizes the proposed move to a new development stage of the network that relies on the collective work of its members. The name comes inspired by the Web 2.0 concept, which is identified with the set of technological, organizational and cultural challenges that are occurring on the Internet and particularly on the Web. Since its inception Infomed was conceived and developed under the concept of a decentralized model of collective construction of which is illustrated by the development of the nodes in all provinces, the creation of territorial domains, developing Web sites and pages at all levels , supported the incorporation of users and the large production of content and services even at a time when there were no blogs, wikis and other developments today are summarized in the idea of Web 2.0. The development of proprietary network of sites is an example of this kind and the existence of pages of professionals and groups are important antecedents of today is to be developed.Therefore, Infomed aims to create an ecosystem of people, services and information sources for health products and services supported by information, communication and collaboration of excellence, focusing on our customers and built with their active participation. This is the opportunities it will provide a variety of technological tools and ways of operating in the network that will mean a change of quality in highlighting the increasing simplification of how to access to technologies and the growing importance the role of people and their ways of working in teams and in groups. Although pending investments in infrastructure and communications, these are problems to be resolved in the short to medium term. However, the most important challenge is the human resource side. It is proposed to begin to design, implement and support services aligned with the philosophy Infomed 2.0. The patterns are a base, a reference and not a scheme.Each person who used must help create or generate new patterns, to continuously improve existing ones and use feedback with practice.

The movie “I Am Legend” was good. It’s like Resident Evil where there’s the virus outbreak and then the place is quarantined, struggle ensues, and at last, seems to be the “last human” on Earth. In Resident Evil, they just have stiff mindless zombies eating brains while for these guys in I am Legend has a different kind of zombie. More instrinctual like an animal. Ok … well that’s just my comparison or contrast on the zombies lols…. Watch the trailer Now! http://www.youtube.com/watch v fgyO8jl2pGM

View of a baseball field.
Baseball (baseball than English) is a sport played between two teams of 9 players each. It is considered one of the most popular sports in the United States, Japan (Asian champion and twice World Champion), Canada, South Korea (Olympic Champion), Taiwan, Cuba (Pan American champion), Australia, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Puerto Rico, South Africa, Netherlands (European champions), Dominican Republic, Colombia, Italy and Venezuela. The countries considered in this sport powers are concentrated in the Americas (North, Central, Caribbean and Venezuela, located in the South) and Asia, where European and African continents behind a good example in the case of Holland, followed by Italy and in africa where only include the selection of South Africa with some good talent.
It is played on a large field of grass (with the exception of the area where the offensive players to reach the bases are located at the vertices of the square area called the diamond, and note line called the corridor and the area of the pitcher where the field is a mound of earth).
The object is to hit a ball with a bat (batting), moved through the field and run across the earth’s internal field (infield) for achieving the highest possible number of bases to give back to the base from where batting (home) and achieve the so called scoring run, while defensive players seek to eliminate the batted ball player hitting the ball or other runners, before these come first to any of the bases and get career scoring (see Rules for details of the game).
The team scoring more runs after nine (9) episodes, called the meeting lasting innings, is what wins. If at the end of nine innings scores level persists regular racing, the game runs as necessary for there to be a winner, according to the basic rules of the game there is a tie, which is allowed only for amateurs and children’s leagues to limit the wear on the players.
Typical baseball scene.
Unlike other sports that are played with balls, such as soccer, which is also known as football or basketball, also known as basketball, although “baseball” could be translated into Spanish, the habit of using root form of English, might give the sensation of a strange name phonetically: the translation would have to be pelotabase or bolabase, although in some Hispanic countries is usually called colloquially as the ball game or just ball.
Moreover, one of the characteristics that distinguish the other baseball team sports is that in this defense is the one with the ball.
History

Collectible card of a player of the nineteenth century.
It is clear that modern baseball development in the U.S., although the exact origin of the game is difficult to determine. Most scholars believe that baseball evolved from a variety of similar games. A popular legend tells that Abner Doubleday, who became official in the Union Army during the American Civil War (1861-1865), invented baseball in Cooperstown (New York) in 1839. Although there is currently no support for this myth, the Hall of Fame and National Baseball Museum are located in Cooperstown.
Origins
There is evidence that people played games with a stick and a ball since the dawn of civilization. Ancient cultures in Persia, Egypt and Greece, played games involving a stick and a ball for recreation and as part of certain ceremonies. Games of this type spread throughout the Middle Ages throughout Europe and became popular in various forms. Europeans made similar games in its colonies in America by the fifteenth century. However, they were regarded as children’s games until the sixteenth century.
There, despite the popular version of the originof baseball created by Doubleday, numerous references to the terms “baseball” and “bat-and-ball” in documents of the early eighteenth century. The origin of baseball in reality should be defined as the evolution of baseball, because based on what historians of the game have been found, is a derivation of the game ‘stool ball’ that dates from the Middle Ages and, in turn, the ‘stool ball’ Game comes rituals practiced in the ancient world. The first reference of the term ‘base ball’ is given in 1744 just under 100 years before Abner Doubleday supposedly invented in Cooperswton, New York in 1839.
Emerged in England in 1744 the first printed evidence of the game ‘Base Ball’ which was published in a book of children’s games.

He debuted with the jersey of River Plate on 18 June 1939 and defended it for 20 years in the top flight in his country.

The Machine: Juan C. Munoz, Jose M. Moreno, Adolfo Pedernera Angel F lix Lousteau Labruna and played only 18 games together, which were memorable for the fans. The Machine is nicknamed due to the precision that computer game River, designed by Carlos Peucelle, who abhorred the tactics and noted that his team was “1-10”, ie a goalkeeper and ten players.Labruna ended his career at River in 1959, had defended his colors in 515 games, scoring 293 goals.

Development Specialization gives the object of study, while the learning process occurs through the participation of a group of individuals experiencing different ways, with the knowledge object in question. The term was studied by Etienne Wenger (1998), Paul Pena (2001) and Antonio Garrido (2003). Noting the knowledge that radiates from a scientific community and promote this fact looking at the corporate level as an institutionalization of the old ‘brainstorming’, recreate the communities of practice. In one of them is the same group who sets the learning objectives and these in turn are selected in the context of ‘work practice in the corporation’. A community of practice makes explicit the informal transfer of knowledge within social networks and groups offering a formal structure that allows you to acquire more knowledge through shared experiences within the group.Finally, the group’s identity is strengthened to reinforce learning as a process of ‘participation’ and ‘leadership’ shared. Informal leadership is essential in organizations and has a role in publicizing the work of the group and observing the implementation of their work in practice. Sociological His role was studied in 70 Pinilla de las Heras and others. This knowledge management, in turn, may be in person or online (Cibercultura), but always cooperative in a continuous process of establishing strategies for participation, leadership, identity, knowledge capture and reuse. In the English version virtual community of practice, Wikipedia says it is a community of practice within a virtual Internet.
