Reactor Design in Japan Has Long Been Questioned

Published: March 15, 2011
The warnings were stark and issued repeatedly as far back as 1972: If the
cooling systems ever failed at a Mark 1 nuclear reactor, the primary
containment vessel surrounding the reactor would probably burst as the fuel

President Obama's call for an increase in "STEM" (Science, Technology,
Engineering, and Mathematics) majors is an acknowledgement of the
proliferation of what British education minister Margaret Hodge infamously
called Mickey Mouse degrees. Given the well-established Disney empire of
theme parks, it might be forgotten that the term "Mickey Mouse" first
entered the public mind as a dysphemism based on his famous star turn as the

We routinely reevaluate and reinvent our business to respond to market

only the deductible for Physical Damage coverage to $1000. To preserve

For simplicity, let's assume before tax each year you get a
return of 5% on your money, your tax rate is 40%, and this holds
true for 30 years. And suppose you have 100K before-tax money
right now.
If you invest it in IRA, after 30 years, you get
100K*1.05^30*(1-0.4)=259.3K
If you do it in regular account, after 30 years, you get
100K*(1-0.4)*(1+0.05*(1-0.4))^30 = 145.6K
It's not hard to see that the benefit comes from the difference
between 1.05^30 and 1.03^30.

For any business, the most important thing is the earning-to-investment

If you put in a unit of money, say 1 million dollars (or for simplicity sake
