What Should UPS and FedEx Do With SurePost and SmartPost?
A look at the risks FedEx Corp. and United Parcel Service Inc. face in working with the USPS. In an earlier article, I looked at the three big changes facing FedEx Corp. (NYSE:FDX) and United Parcel Service (NYSE:UPS) in the shipping marketplace.


A Shipperâs Perspective on FedEx SmartPost & UPS SurePost
Tracking is available: You and your customer can track the package as you normally would a typical UPS / FedEx shipment. No residential surcharge: At last check (April 2013), normal UPS Ground shipments delivered to a residence are subject to a $2.80 surcharge. FedEx Groundâs residential surcharge is $3.20. However, fuel surcharges (8.5% for UPS and 7.5% for FedEx) still apply with SmartPost and SurePost.


What is UPS Surepost?
What is UPS Surepost? I ordered something off of Sears and the UPS website says that the item is shipped by UPS Surepost and the information says that the package was transferred to the Post Office and it's supposed to be delivered today. Is the package going to be delivered with the mail or by the USPS truck or the USP truck?


What Should UPS and FedEx Do With SurePost and SmartPost?
As such, SmartPost and SurePost both carry risk due to their reliance on the USPS. Let's consider those risks, and why they matter to FedEx and UPS. SmartPost and SurePost. The two businesses share three principal risks, each related to the use of the USPS for final delivery:


SurePost - Package delivered by local post office Status
Staff Member. It means UPS delivered your package to the USPS location that delivers your mail. The agreed time after that is within 2 business days but the USPS does pretty much what they want. Hopefully the post office will get it to you by Christmas.


What Should UPS and FedEx Do With SurePost and SmartPost?
In truth, SmartPost and SurePost contribute much more in volume growth than they do in profit. FedEx's ground daily volume (as distinct from FedEx Ground segment volume) was 2.2 times that of FedEx SmartPost, and the former contributed more than 10 times the revenue of the latter. The story is similar with UPS.


SurePost - Package delivered by local post office Status
On one of my packages the status is 'Package delivered by local post office'. In fact, that is the status for about 2 times on this past Thursday and once on Friday. How can it be 'delivered' more then once? I still have not received the package. Can someone please expalin what 'Package delivered by local post office' really mean.

Your pet needs protein (animal meat, seafood, dairy, or eggs), fat (from meat or oil) and carbohydrates (grains or vegetables). He also needs calcium (from dairy or an ingredient such as egg shells), and essential fatty acids (from certain plant oils, egg yolks, oatmeal, and other foods).aking dog food that meets Fidoâs nutrition needs isn't as simple as you might think, says pet nutritionist Cailin Heinze, VMD. âIt can be done, it just takes a lot of dedication, a lot of work, and for some pets and some ingredients, quite a bit of expense,â Heinze says.

A: Thatâs common in food-allergic dogs. They have to be sensitized; they have to have been exposed for some period of time.

The Earliest Vermonters. Native Americans, primarily from the Abenaki nation, lived in Vermont for thousands of years. Recent archaeological research shows that there were permanent Paleoindian settlements in many places in Vermont. Ancient Native Americans first came into Vermont hunting big game animals, such as caribou and mastodon, after the last glacier receded.

The Abenaki and the Eugenics Survey. In recent years, some historians have claimed that the Abenaki Indians were targeted by the Vermont Eugenics Survey, and that it was an organized effort by the state to reduce their numbers, and presence in the state.

One group of people residing in Vermont has argued that they were specifically targeted by the Vermont Eugenics Survey: the Western Abenaki Indians. The Western Abenaki Indians reside in Vermont and New Hampshire, but are primarily located in the area around Lake Champlain. Those living in the Lake Champlain area are generally members of the Sokoki/ St. Francis tribe.

Federal census population schedules for Thompson's Point in Charlotte, Vermont, Chittenden County, for 1910, 1920, and 1930 recorded the small Obomsawin family as the only Indians in the area. In 1910, 1920 and 1930 there were three family members listed (1910, 1920, and 1930 Census, Charlotte, Vermont). The Federal decennial census reports for the entire county listed 9 Indians in 1910, 4 in 1920, and 6 in 1930. In 1950, there were only six reported (US Census Bureau 1932; US Census Bureau 1952).


Abenaki
The Abenaki (Abnaki, Abinaki, AlnÃ´bak) are a Native American tribe and First Nation. They are one of the Algonquian-speaking peoples of northeastern North America. The Abenaki live in Quebec and the Maritimes of Canada and in the New England region of the United States, a region called Wabanahkik (Dawn Land) in the Eastern Algonquian languages. The Abenaki are one of the five members of the Wabanaki Confederacy.

Another huge lake formed in central Vermont, Lake Stowe. Vermont's largest western body of water, Lake Vermont, expanded as the glacier melted. The water could not drain north into the Atlantic (as it does today) because the shrinking glacier blocked it.

Europeans Arrive. In 1609, French explorer Samuel de Champlain arrived in Vermont and claimed the land for France. Champlain helped the local Abinaki Indians fight off the Iroquois by giving them guns. French settlers arrived mostly to trade for beaver furs which were popular in France. The first European settlement in Vermont was Fort St. Anne, which was built by the French in 1666 to protect the fur trading routes.


Premature babies: How 24 week-old babies are now able to survive
Out of 4,001 births, the first EPICure study (another study took place in 2006 and the latest, following the original children, now aged 19, is due to be finished next year) found that 311 babies survived and were eventually discharged, including two babies born at 22 weeks, six at 23 weeks, 100 at 24 weeks and 186 babies at 25.

WHO fact sheet on preterm birth providing key facts and information on solution, geographical distribution and WHO response. Every year, an estimated 15 million babies are born preterm (before 37 completed weeks of gestation), and this number is rising.


New study shows many premature babies can survive as early as 22 weeks
The study found that, while viability is usually set at 24 weeks, babies born as early as 22 weeks may survive if they are treated. Sadly, a number of hospitals refuse to treat infants who are born before 24 weeks. And yet, this study found that in hospitals that do treat extremely premature infants, they are surviving.


Premature Babies May Survive at 22 Weeks if Treated, Study Finds
Premature Babies May Survive at 22 Weeks if Treated, Study Finds. Alexis Hutchinson, 5, left, with her sister, Joslyn, 9, at their home in Iowa this week. Alexis was born premature at 22 weeks. 1  A small number of very premature babies are surviving earlier outside the womb than doctors once thought possible, a new study has documented, raising questions about how aggressively they should be treated and posing implications for the debate about abortion.


Premature Babies Do Better than Many Doctors Believe
Premature births occur in 6% to 10% of all pregnancies, and prematurity is the most common cause of sickness and death among newborn babies. If they survive, these babies are at risk for serious handicaps such as cerebral palsy, mental retardation, and developmental delay. A survey by researchers from the University of Alabama found that obstetricians and pediatricians underestimated premature infants' odds of survival and overestimated their chances of developing a serious handicap.


Premature birth statistics
â¢ Recent studies in the UK comparing babies born in 1995 and 2006 have shown improved rates of survival (from 40% to 53%) for extreme preterm births (born between 22 and 26 weeks) [7]. â¢ There is a dramatic difference in survival of premature babies depending on where they are born. For example, more than 90% of extremely preterm babies (less than 28 weeks) born in low-income countries die within the first few days of life; yet less than 10% of extremely preterm babies die in high-income countries [8].


Premature Birth Statistics
The record for the smallest premature baby to survive was held for some time by Madeline Mann, who was born at 26 weeks weighing 9.9 oz (280 g) and 9.5 inches (24 cm) long. This record was broken in September 2004 by Rumaisa Rahman, who was born in the same hospital at 25 weeks gestation.

Avoid soaking roots for more than six hours. Remember: do not expose roots to freezing temperatures (or below) prior to planting.


How to grow raspberries
How to plant. During winter, you can buy bare-rooted raspberry canes that are about 20â30cm tall. They do best planted in rows that run north to south so the entire plant is exposed to sun during the day. Well-drained soil is essential as plants do not tolerate wet feet.

You can use a straw mulch to help keep the weeds under control. When you take care of raspberry plants, you want to be sure to fertilize them twice a year the first year you plant them. After that, you can fertilize your growing raspberry bushes annually. You will use 2 to 3 pounds of 10-10-10 fertilizer per 100 foot of row.


-
Helpful hints. 1  Raspberry plants need full sun to produce the most fruit. The plant will grow in part shade, but harvests will be meager. 2  Space red and yellow types 2 to 3 feet apart; space black and purple types 4 feet apart. 3  Raspberries are self-fertile. You'll get fruit with only one cultivar.  Prune all types annually.


-
Care and maintenance. 1  Pick the fruit as it colours up. Raspberries ripen over a 4â6 week period from summer into autumn. 2  Sprinkle lightly with a complete fertiliser with an N:P:K of 12:5:15 in early spring. 3  Water well twice a week in the growing and fruiting period from October to March.


Raspberries
Raspberries are really popular summer fruits and are very easy to grow. Just a few raspberry plants will reward you with plenty of fruit from midsummer until mid autumn. If you end up with a glut, raspberries also freeze well. Raspberries can be grown in any size garden, you can even grow raspberries in containers.


Planting Raspberry Plants
Additional Notes. 1  Raspberry plants should live 8 to 10 years with proper maintenance. 2  Suggested number of plants for a family of 5: 20 to 25 plants (4 to 5 plants per person). 3  Average yield per plant is 1 to 2 quarts of raspberries.

Plant the summer-fruiting raspberries and tie in the canes along one side of the wires. Keep fruiting canes on one side and young new canes to the other side of the wires as the season progresses. In autumn, the fruited canes can easily be pruned out and the young canes will be separate along the other side of the wire.


How to grow raspberries
Each plant will send up numerous new canes in its first year. These reach about 1.5m tall and need the support of a post and wire structure, trellis or fence to tie the canes to. Run two lengths of wire, the lower at 1m and the higher at 1.4m above the ground for perfect support.


Nasal Cannulas and Face Masks
Nasal cannulas and face masks are used to deliver oxygen to people who don't otherwise get enough of it. They are commonly used to provide relief to people with respiratory disorders.

Then, turn the stamp up-side-down and pat the ink pad ONTO the stamp. This method is counter-intuitive, but it works great. And, the other advantage of doing it this way is that you can see if the entire stamp has enough ink before you stamp it onto the paper or wall, etc.n other words, because the Big Foot is so large, there are no ink pads that are big enough to totally encompass the stamp (in the traditional method of stamping the stamp INTO the ink.) However, for large stamps, the way to get around this is: Remove the lid from the ink pad.

how many days does it take to get Ana blood test result back from doctors?
i read that some blood test take longer to process than others but it did not say which ones. doctors only send you a letter if there is something wrong with results .so i am not sure how long to leave it before ringing doctors for results. i have only had the thyroid test before .1st time for all the others.


Getting Diagnosed
Unfortunately, if the ANA test was run using a very common method called Multiplex testing, recent research indicates that there is an up to 43% chance (depending on the particular Multiplex diagnostic system) that the negative ANA is wrong for patients with Scleroderma!


how many days does it take to get Ana blood test result back from doctors?
i was so amazed to be listen to and taken seriously .that i totally forgot to ask how long it takes to get blood test results. on Wednesday 31st October at 9.00am i had blood test taken at a small hospital .i don't know if they test bloods there or have them tested at a larger hospital . test i had done where. Ana.


Getting Diagnosed
This can have a major impact on scleroderma diagnosis. If the results of an initial ANA screening comes back negative to the primary care doctor that ordered the ANA test without knowing this data, this can be the start of (in some cases) years of diagnostic limbo for patients.


Getting Diagnosed
Diagnosis â Step 2: Specific Antibody Testing. Actually, in spite of the discussion above, it is perfectly fine for your physician to initially order an ANA test with additional antibody testing, as long as they are aware of what method is being used to do the ANA test.


ANA blood test
susan33651 LeicesterLass â¢ over a year ago Hi, The ANA test will show pos or neg within one week. If pos it will then proceed to the Extractable Nuclear Antibody stage which can take up to 21 days. I think RF takes about 7 -14 days.

The fork () System Call
The fork() System Call . System call fork() is used to create processes. It takes no arguments and returns a process ID. The purpose of fork() is to create a new process, which becomes the child process of the caller. After a new child process is created, both processes will execute the next instruction following the fork() system call. Therefore, we have to distinguish the parent from the child.


fork (2) - Linux man page
The child has its own unique process ID, and this PID does not match the ID of any existing process group (setpgid(2)). *. The child's parent process ID is the same as the parent's process ID. *. The child does not inherit its parent's memory locks (mlock(2), mlockall(2)). *. Process resource utilizations (getrusage(2)) and CPU time counters (times(2)) are reset to zero in the child.


The fork () System Call
System call fork() is used to create processes. 1  It takes no arguments and returns a process ID. The purpose of fork() is to create a new process, which becomes the child process of the caller. After a new child process is created, both processes will execute the next instruction following the fork() system call.


fork (2) - Linux man page
fork() creates a new process by duplicating the calling process. The new process, referred to as the child, is an exact duplicate of the calling process, referred to as the parent, except for the following points: * The child has its own unique process ID, and this PID does not match the ID of any existing process group (setpgid(2)). *


fork (2) - Linux man page
Under Linux, fork() is implemented using copy-on-write pages, so the only penalty that it incurs is the time and memory required to duplicate the parent's page tables, and to create a unique task structure for the child.


fork (2) - Linux man page
fork() creates a new process by duplicating the calling process. The new process, referred to as the child, is an exact duplicate of the calling process, referred to as the parent, except for the following points: The process attributes in the preceding list are all specified in POSIX.1-2001.


The fork () System Call
System call fork() returns the child process ID to the parent and returns 0 to the child process. The following figure shows that in both address spaces there is a variable pid. The one in the parent receives the child's process ID 3456 and the one in the child receives 0.


The fork () System Call
If the call to fork() is executed successfully, Unix will. 1  make two identical copies of address spaces, one for the parent and the other for the child. 2  Both processes will start their execution at the next statement following the fork() call.

The fork () System Call
This can be done by testing the returned value of fork(): 1  If fork() returns a negative value, the creation of a child process was unsuccessful. 2  fork() returns a zero to the newly created child process. 3  fork() returns a positive value, the process ID of the child process, to the parent.

Garlic Lemon and Parmesan Oven Roasted Zucchini
Line a rimmed cookie sheet with aluminum foil. Cut zucchini into thick wedges or halves (cut each zucchini in half then that half in half, so you have 4 wedges from each zucchini. Next time I might try to do just halves so the parmesan bakes more evenly, plus it would be easier to add the parmesan). In a small bowl, stir together olive oil, lemon zest and garlic.


How To Roast Any Vegetable
Winter squash (butternut squash, acorn squash): 20 to 60 minutes, depending on how small you cut them. Crucifers (broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts): 15 to 25 minutes. Soft vegetables (zucchini, summer squash, bell peppers): 10 to 20 minutes. Thin vegetables (asparagus, green beans): 10 to 20 minutes. Onions: 30 to 45 minutes, depending on how crispy you like them. Tomatoes: 15 to 20 minutes.


How to Roast Eggplant Cubes
Remove the eggplant from the oven. Serve warm or at room temperature, or add it to your favorite eggplant recipe. The eggplant is particularly delicious when simmered for a few minutes in your favorite warm sauce (tomato sauce, curry, etc.). Or, you can snack on it plain, like I do... simple, with a touch of salt.


RTD Calibration
Relating resistance to temperature. The resistance of an RTD changes almost linearly with temperature. Often, widely available tables are used for converting temperature to resistance and vice versa. (In fact, we include tables you can use for the two most commonly used RTD temperature coefficients. See the Excel file below.)


Electrical resistance and conductance
For the term used when referring to touchscreens, see resistive touchscreen. The electrical resistance of an electrical conductor is a measure of the difficulty to pass an electric current through that conductor. The inverse quantity is electrical conductance, and is the ease with which an electric current passes. Electrical resistance shares some conceptual parallels with the notion of mechanical friction. The SI unit of electrical resistance is the ohm (Ï), while electrical conductance is measured in siemens (S).


Measuring Resistance versus Temperature and Critical Temperature
Determination of the Critical Temperature. The Critical Temperature (Tc) is obtained during the measurement of the electrical resistance as function of the Temperature of the superconductor above. The Critical Temperature of the Bi2Sr2Ca2Cu3O10 superconductor is about 108 Kelvin versus about 95 Kelvin for the YBa2Cu3O7 material.


Measuring Resistance versus Temperature and Critical Temperature
The measurement of electrical resistance as a function of the superconductor's temperature yields fundamental insights into its properties. The Critical Temperature, Critical Current Density, and the Critical Magnetic Field, can all be obtained through variations of this basic experiment.


-
) Thus, $R = R_{0}(1 + \alpha \Delta T)$. is the temperature dependence of the resistance of an object, where R0 is the original resistance and R is the resistance after a temperature change T. Numerous thermometers are based on the effect of temperature on resistance (see ).


Electrical resistivity and conductivity
For specific applications in electrical elements, see Electrical resistance and conductance. Electrical resistivity (also known as resistivity, specific electrical resistance, or volume resistivity) is an intrinsic property that quantifies how strongly a given material opposes the flow of electric current.


-
Temperature coefficient of resistance is the measure of change in electrical resistance of any substance per degree of temperature rise. Let a conductor having a resistance of R0 at 0Â°C and Rt at tÂ°C respectively.


Electrical resistivity and conductivity
As an example, if a 1 m Ã 1 m Ã 1 m solid cube of material has sheet contacts on two opposite faces, and the resistance between these contacts is 1 Ï, then the resistivity of the material is 1 Ïâm.

Peripheral Neuropathy Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment Medications
Specific nerves can be involved in neuropathy. When a specific nerve is involved, the symptoms are limited to the distribution of that nerve. The most commonly involved peripheral nerve is the median nerve at the wrist in carpal tunnel syndrome. Essentially any peripheral nerve can become entrapped and cause the signs and symptoms of neuropathy.


Peripheral Neuropathy Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment Medications
Because the symptoms are often present in the areas covered by gloves or stockings, peripheral neuropathy is often described as having a âglove and stockingâ distribution of symptoms. Peripheral neuropathy can involve different nerve types, including motor, sensory, and autonomic nerves.
