			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The CVPH Medical center in Plattsburgh, has seen a drastic increase in the number of people admitting in their emergency department, suffering complications from a synthetic form of marijuana. Most of them are in critical condition and this shows the severity in the condition of drug abuse.</p>
<p>After observing the cases which are admitted with severe complications, they reported some of the symptoms of serious conditions. The symptoms vary from high agitation and anxiety to hallucinations and paranoia. And the most common thing was the elevated heart rates. While the normal heart rates stand at 60-80, the rates of synthetic cannabis patients will experience 120-140.</p>
<p>The experts from the medical center also added saying that there is no good treatment for the patients admitted for smoking pot. The staff of the emergency department are mostly observing patients until the chemicals are flushed from the system. Unlike other drugs, K2 will not show up on drug screening and even though the patients admitted that they used K2, it leads to further complications in treating the patients.</p>
<p>Many of the patients fear to come to the treatment by thinking that becomes legal. To avoid this situation the management is planning to educate the staff. Since K2 use is not illegal, the patients can undoubtedly get treatment for that .</p>
<p>The federal Drug Enforcement Agency has taken emergency measures to ban several chemicals present in the synthetic product, however the temporary court injunction has halted DEA&#8217;s emergency efforts. Since several states have already banned fake pot, New York is also considering the case.</p>

Here are the details of illegal drug usage trends in 2010 found as per these surveys. For the MTF survey 2010, the participants included 46,482 students in the 8th, 10th and 12th graders from 396 public and private schools.</p>
<p>It was found that, on the whole, there was no change in the measures of illicit drug use from 2009 to 2010. Marijuana use rose among the 8th, 10th and 12th graders from 2009 to 2010. It was found to be at the highest point (6.1%) since the early 1980s among the 12th graders. The marijuana use increased among the 8th graders and decreased among the 10th and 12th graders in 2010.</p>
<p>After several years of decline, the use of ecstasy in 2009 and 2010 had increased among the 8th and 10th graders. The survey revealed that the lifetime use of ecstasy from 2009 to 2010 among the 8th graders increased from 2.2 to 3.3 percent. There was a rise in the past-year use of ecstasy from 2009 to 2010 from 1.3 to 2.4 percent. The current use was found to increase from 0.6 percent to 1.1 percent.</p>
<p>It was known from the MTF survey that there was a steady decline in the current, annual and lifetime prevalence of cocaine and crack abuse among the 8th, 10th and 12th graders in 2010. Also, the amphetamine use which was at its peak (15.5%) in 2006 declined to 8.9% in 2010. Use of methamphetamine decreased from 6.5% in 1999 to 2.2% in 2010. From the surveys of 2010 it was found that marijuana and ecstasy use had increased and amphetamine, methamphetamine and cocaine use had decreased in 2010.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Having ideal weight as per your body height is necessary to stay healthy. Excessive weight may be seen in case of certain diseased conditions, when there is an inappropriate metabolism. Nutrients, especially vitamins, regulate weight-control and weight-related functions like hunger, appetite, metabolic rate, metabolism of fats and sugars, calorie-burning and so on.</p>
<p>Different types of vitamin B, especially, B2, B3, B5, B6, and B12 are linked with weight loss. They are essential in creating new blood cells, increasing energy levels, and regulating metabolism. Vitamins B2, B3, and B6 are involved in regulating the thyroid function and metabolism. Vitamin B5 or pantothenic acid plays an important role in energy production and assists adrenal function. Hence, having foods such as egg yolk, dairy products, fortified grain products, leafy vegetables, and legumes help in weight loss.</p>
<p>Vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant, plays a role in maintaining metabolism. It even increases the levels of good cholesterol that help remove the bad cholesterol from the body. Hence, it prevents accumulation of plaques in blood vessels. The best sources of this vitamin are seeds, nuts, avocado, vegetable oil, wheat germ oil, leafy or green vegetables, and whole grains.</p>
<p>Vitamin C also plays a role in proper conversion of glucose to energy in the cells. It even burns more fat. It even strengthens the immune system. Hence, including vitamin C-rich foods such as broccoli, green peppers, oranges, strawberries, cabbage, and so on in your diet can help you in losing weight. In addition to these, vitamin D is also considered to aid in weight loss.</p>
<p>It should, however, be remembered that any of these vitamins should be taken in adequate amounts as excessive dosage may otherwise show adverse effects.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of the most advanced forms of advertising the products and services of a business is by the use of Internet. Online advertising promotes the messages of the businesses directly to the customers in an attractive way. The rise in trend of online advertising has been enhancing the growth of spending on online advertisements.</p>
<p>As per the eMarketer estimations, online ad spend would see growth worldwide and US would be in the leading position. The estimates were found through analysis of data from various sources like investment banks, governmental organizations, research firms and ad agencies. They also included the analysis of global trends in economy and advertising markets.</p>
<p>As per the estimations, online ad spending is expected to grow 17.2% to $80.1 billion in 2011.

However, it is estimated that Asia-Pacific, Latin America, Eastern Europe and the Middle East are found to face growth in terms of online ad spends. Online ad spending in Asia-Pacific is estimated to be more than doubled from $16.4 billion in 2010 to $34.6 billion in 2015. There would be a triple growth in online ad spending from 2010 to 2015 from $3.7 billion to $11.3 billion.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh, January 9, 2012 -</strong> Marvist WebSolutions, a pioneer in the field of Internet marketing consulting and services has announced “The Best Marketing Projects Contest – 2011”. This is the second time that the organization is conducting such a contest. This contest is aimed as an initiative to encourage quality project work by MBA students.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The first prize winner will walk away with a cash award of Rs.12,000 and the second and third prizes will carry awards of Rs.7,500 and Rs.5,000 respectively.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">A summer project work done by students allows to showcase their capabilities when it comes to applying their academic knowledge in real life situation. But today, even good students are not using this opportunity, opting for a routine/mediocre project which can be completed relatively easily. However, such projects do not grow either the abilities of the student or their understanding of real life business situations.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">A spokesperson for Marvist WebSolutions said, <em>&#8220;A challenging project done in real life situations is essential for preparing the student for the realities of his/her first job. Marvist WebSolutions is coming up with the contest to encourage such projects that offer practical solutions to business problems.&#8221;</em></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Marvist WebSolutions is seeking to identify students who introduce new concepts, have strong knowledge of marketing, show rigorousness in research and are diligent in executing marketing principles. The project must involve strategic marketing with a combination of academic knowledge and industry. Students are expected to put in a minimum of 4 weeks (180 working hours) into the project. Preference will be given to projects dealing with Internet marketing and problems faced by professional small companies.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">20th January 2012 is the last date for submitting the project. The winners will be given the prize money in cheque along with the letters. This will also be publicized.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is common that, if an employee is injured or died in the course of his employment, then they or their families or dependents are often entitled to collect worker&#8217;s compensation benefits. Thus, it is a type of employer-paid insurance that provides medical and indemnity benefits for work related injuries and diseases as well as financially support the employees while they are recovering.</p>
<p>Earlier, it was treated as the employee benefit, but later, it is legally mandated as right of the worker. Employers who are legally required to have workers compensation insurance but fail to purchase it and do not qualify as &#8220;self-insured by law&#8221; usually can be sued through the system of court. In case, if the employer was found to be negligent, and if that negligence directly caused a worker&#8217;s injury, the employer would be liable for the injuries. However, there might be extra penalties on uninsured employers.</p>
<p>Workers Compensation insurance is a social insurance system, falling under the state regulations that gives partial wage or missed salary replacement for temporary or permanent loss of earnings for job-related injuries and illnesses. Each state has different requirements, but generally any business that has full or part time employees must carry workers compensation insurance to cover these employees.</p>
<p>The cost of the workers compensation insurance is based on rates per 100 of payroll and depend on the job classification of the employee. Basically, the cost for an employer depends on the specific employers loss history, premium size and type of work, that is devised throughout the years.</p>
