Patchouli, bergamot, cassis, Tonka, warm gooey snickerdoodles, dripping honey, soft white florals, sharp gunpowder and sweet creamy vanilla and still has that classy smell despite all of the sweetness, and believe me it lives up to its "Nectar" name as it is drippingly sweet.

![]() Notice that the highest growth is occurring in less economically developed countries in Africa and Asia. ![]() The percent growth rate of population in different countries is shown. Stable population diagrams are rounded on the top, showing that the number of individuals per age group decreases gradually, and then increases for the older part of the population. In the slow growth model, the number of individuals decreases steadily with age. The rapid growth diagram narrows to a point, indicating that the number of individuals decreases rapidly with age. Typical age structure diagrams are shown. The actual growth rates in different countries are shown in Figure 4, with the highest rates tending to be in the less economically developed countries of Africa and Asia.įigure 3. The age structure of these populations is more conical, with an even greater percentage of middle-aged and older individuals. Other developed countries, such as Italy, have zero population growth. Age structures of areas with slow growth, including developed countries such as the United States, still have a pyramidal structure, but with many fewer young and reproductive-aged individuals and a greater proportion of older individuals. This pattern is most often observed in underdeveloped countries where individuals do not live to old age because of less-than-optimal living conditions, and there is a high birth rate. Countries with rapid growth have a pyramidal shape in their age structure diagrams, showing a preponderance of younger individuals, many of whom are of reproductive age (Figure 3). Models that incorporate age structure allow better prediction of population growth, plus the ability to associate this growth with the level of economic development in a region. Age structure is the proportion of a population in different age classes. The age structure of a population is an important factor in population dynamics. ![]() Age Structure, Population Growth, and Economic Development These advances in technology were possible, in part, due to the exploitation of fossil fuels. Technological advances of the industrial age have also supported population growth through urbanization and advances in agriculture. The reduction in life expectancy caused by HIV/AIDS was estimated to be 7 years for 2005. For example, life expectancy in sub-Saharan Africa, which was increasing from 1950 to 1990, began to decline after 1985 largely as a result of HIV/AIDS mortality. Naturally, infectious disease continues to have an impact on human population growth, especially in poorer nations. In the past, diseases such as the bubonic plaque of the fourteenth century killed between 30 and 60 percent of Europe’s population and reduced the overall world population by as many as one hundred million people. ![]() Also, medical innovations such as the use of antibiotics and vaccines have decreased the ability of infectious disease to limit human population growth. Clean drinking water and proper disposal sewage has drastically improved health in developed nations. The fundamental cause of the acceleration of growth rate for humans in the past 200 years has been the reduced death rate due to changes in public health and sanitation. The time between the addition of each billion human beings to Earth decreases over time. Changes on a global scale including depletion of the ozone layer, desertification and topsoil loss, and global climate change are caused by human activities. Human technology and particularly our harnessing of the energy contained in fossil fuels have caused unprecedented changes to Earth’s environment, altering ecosystems to the point where some may be in danger of collapse. Long-term exponential growth carries with it the potential risks of famine, disease, and large-scale death, as well as social consequences of crowding such as increased crime. Earth’s human population and their use of resources are growing rapidly, to the extent that some worry about the ability of Earth’s environment to sustain its human population. Humans, however, have the ability to alter their environment to increase its carrying capacity, sometimes to the detriment of other species. For example, beaver dams alter the stream environment where they are built. Humans are not unique in their ability to alter their environment. Human population growth since 1000 AD is exponential.Ĭoncepts of animal population dynamics can be applied to human population growth. ![]() Trucking companies are responsible for payment if their clients do not pay. There are two types of fleet factoring, classified as recourse and non-recourse plans: Your business gets a percentage of the invoice within a few days and the factoring company takes ownership of the invoice and the payment process.” - The International Factoring Association (IFA) “Factoring allows you to use your own hard-earned assets to create cash for the growth needs of your company. Fleet factoring payments are not loans, rather, they provide regular cash flow and can be used to fund any aspect of business operations. The benefits of doing so include quicker payments and a reduced accounting burden, all of which combine to give trucking companies the increased efficiencies they need to continue growing. In such transactions, the trucking company assigns its invoices to the factoring company in exchange for a small percentage of the invoice. The only difference is that the trucking company now sells its accounts receivable (AR) to the factoring company. The trucking company continues to deliver cargo and transport goods across the nation as it normally would. Once a trucking company begins factoring, their business operations remain relatively the same. The good news is that fleet factoring solutions can provide valuable resources to guarantee quicker invoice payments. While the trend in real-time payment is influencing many industries, it is slow to become standard practice in the trucking industry. Quick invoice payments are necessary to keep fleet operations running and trucks on the road. As such, when invoice payments are delayed by an average of 40 days, having adequate cash flow can become critical. This is especially the case for small- to medium-sized fleets since they usually operate within slim profit margins. However, not all trucking companies have the short-term resources they need to stay afloat. ![]() Keeping up with this consumer demand would not be possible without trucking companies, as their services are necessary for maintaining the supply chain and keeping consumers satisfied. Over 50% of online shoppers aged 18-34 now expect merchants to provide same-day delivery, and over 60% of them are willing to pay extra money for the service. The global market for same-day delivery is expected to reach $20.36 billion by 2027, estimated to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.1% from 2020. ![]() For this reason, industries across the globe are making efforts to streamline their business operations. Mega companies like Amazon and Walmart have paved the way for one-click ordering and same-day delivery. When it comes to doing business these days, delivery speeds often matter the most. ![]() When you play the sound, it will start capturing the audio in real time.

Would the Knicks really give that up for bigger name who might not even win them that long-coveted NBA championship? And there’s still room for him to be even better. Moving Barrett and getting a superstar plus plenty of draft capital wouldn’t cripple New York at all.Įxcept if the Knicks were to trade Barrett, wouldn’t they only be cheating themselves? He’s playing the best basketball of his career and finally looks like the complete talent they hoped for on NBA Draft Night years ago. The Knicks probably wouldn’t hesitate in such a trade either. Other teams notice this too, as Barrett’s name has been dangled in a potential Joel Embiid trade. He just kept showing up and playing his game, and that was enough to force Game 6 of the East Semis. It wasn’t much, but averaging 19.3 points and inching his three-point game up to nearly 33% made a difference. Barrett had a streaky regular season in which his range suffered most, shooting just 31% from three.Ĭut to the playoffs, with Randle hobbled by a bum ankle, and Barrett shifted into a new gear. His performance in the playoffs last year is a perfect example. He’s had the same mentality and approach to every game that I’ve been his teammate.” “I think the biggest difference is that there isn’t a difference,” Knicks point guard and teammate Jalen Brunson said Sunday. This is because no matter what, RJ Barrett shows up and plays. Nor is he particularly injury prone or someone who makes a lot of mistakes. He isn’t prone to moody, heady emotions on the court like his teammate Julius Randle at times. Barrett’s focus and determination has always been his best quality. 2 or 3 guy? An elite defender and/or three-and-D?Īs it turns out, the answer might be all of the above and for one reason. Would he be a team’s primary scorer? A solid No. As a fresh-faced, 19-year-old rookie, nobody knew what to expect. He’s in the first season of a four-year, $107 million extension signed in 2022.Īnd anyone who’s followed Barrett’s basketball journey from Canada to Duke to New York knows how much this means. He had 23 points and seven rebounds in Canada’s third-place upset of Team USA.īest of all is Knicks fans can look forward to seeing plenty more of RJ Barrett. What’s more amazing is that unlike teammate Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart, Barrett is doing this without any clear rust from the FIBA World Cup. He has also shown marked improvement on defense. ![]() The former Duke Blue Devil is averaging 22.6 points per game while shooting 48.7% from the field and an amazing 50% from three. If he wants to distance himself from the Mamba label, maybe he should do a better job of, you know, not channelling Bryant on the court.īarrett, who the Knicks drafted third overall back in 2019, is off to the best start of his career in 2023-24, his fifth season. Now, while I would never call the Knicks’ young wing by that nickname to his face, I will at least say this much. RJ Barrett hates being called the “Maple Mamba” in comparison to the late, great Kobe Bryant. ![]() Step 8: Click Export Slices placed in the bottom-right. ?

These opening lines suggest a message of encouragement and guidance. The gist of the message is given to you upfront with the intro lyrics that are sung passionately in harmony. The lyrics are extremely relatable in the sense that we've all been on a demanding journey in life where we felt like we were at the point of failure and being lost. If that isn't one of the most amazing instances of artistic inspiration as a songwriter, then I don't know what is!

It is well worth noting that Livgren became an evangelical Christian in 1980, a few years after writing this hit in 1976.Īlthough he says it wasn't meant to be overly religious, he did feel a sense of prophecy and spirituality in his life at that time. "Carry On Wayward Son" features an epic musical arrangement that combines classic rock elements with progressive rock in a very magical way that also feels very religious. This is where I believe divine intervention happened Kerry sat down and wrote this masterpiece as a way to motivate himself through his journey as a musician and a writer.
