This document provides advice on revising poetry by eliminating cliches, using concrete rather than abstract language, replacing linking verbs with active verbs, and taking risks in writing to add originality. It encourages experimenting and taking chances to lead to imaginative breakthroughs, and emphasizes the importance of reading widely to understand modern poetry and mature as a writer.
The 20th Open BONJACI international open tournament was a grand chess event with 135 participants from 5 federations and a prize fund of 37,000 kn. It took dedicated people like Ivica Leakovi, Krunoslav Le邸i and their collaborators to organize, inspire and maintain such an international event in a small town. They prioritized their love for chess, community and homeland above all else. Therefore, Bo邸njaci rightly belongs among the great Croatian events. The tournament also featured 42 young players aged 8 to 20, including several national youth champions.
This document summarizes an international chess tournament called "ZADAR OPEN 2014" to take place from December 14-20, 2014 in Zadar, Croatia. The tournament will use the Swiss system across 9 rounds and have separate tournaments for players rated 2300 and above (Tournament A) and 2200 and below (Tournament B). Cash prizes will be awarded to the top finishers in each tournament. Players will stay at the Falkensteiner Hotels & Resorts Borik and registration closes on December 14.

"Estimating survival data from published Kaplan-Meier curves:A comparison of methods"
Matthew Taylor, Lily Lewis (YHEC),
Richard Perry, Ann Yellowlees, Kelly Fleetwood and Teresa Barata (Quantics)
Motivation is the process of encouraging people to accomplish goals. It comes from both internal desires (intrinsic) and external rewards/incentives (extrinsic). Motivation is important because it leads to improved employee performance and productivity, helps achieve organizational goals, builds relationships, and reduces turnover. Managers are responsible for motivating subordinates through both financial and non-financial means like recognition, opportunities for growth, and engaging meaningful work. Proper motivation results in maximum utilization of human resources.

For most people CSS is like a mystical art that nobody truly understands... Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesnt (unexplainably) .
Not solely introductory, but also covering more advanced topics, embark in this fantastic adventure that is CSS.

The document summarizes key concepts from theorists Laura Mulvey and John Berger regarding how gender is represented in media. Mulvey introduced the concept of the "male gaze" in film, where scenes are framed from a masculine perspective to focus on and objectify a woman's physical appearance. Berger argued that photography detaches images from their original context and mystifies their meanings. He believed representations of gender in art depicted men as active and women as passive objects to be looked at. Nudity differs from nakedness in that the former depicts being seen as an object rather than oneself.
Matthew Taylor and Alexandra Filby present on:
- What drives the outcomes in oncology models?
- Relationship between clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness
- Development of a tool to visualise the impact of survival on cost-effectiveness
- Evaluation of various scenarios
Objectives: Economic evaluations typically include all costs relevant to a disease. This is particularly relevant to oncology modelling, as costs are assigned to each health state in the model, and, therefore, extending survival also increases costs. Because patients often incur higher healthcare costs in the post-progressed state of disease where costs of disease management are high, extending survival and increasing a patients time in the post-progressed stage can be particularly costly. The objective of this research was to investigate the methodology used in oncology modelling, and to determine the effect that this has on predicted cost-effectiveness.
Methods: A simple three-state economic model was produced with with ten key parameters to calculate the ICERs associated with various combinations of inputs. Extensive scenario and multiway sensitivity analyses were carried out to document informative patterns and relationships between parameters that affected the results. Specifically, the model tested the impact of: (i) the relative duration of progression-free survival and post-progression survival, (ii) the shape and scale of parametric coefficients for survival, (iii) the impact of treatment duration and (iv) the time-dependency of post-progression costs.
Results: The paper presents the concept of a natural ICER, the value towards which the results tend as survival is indefinitely increased. Results showed that the natural ICER is independent of the model design and the choice of survival inputs, and is driven purely by the cost and utility of the post-progressed state. In some cases with higher post-progression costs, the likelihood of a treatment being cost-effective decreased as the effectiveness of the treatment improved. The results demonstrate circumstances in which no matter how effective a treatment is and how low the price is, it will not be cost-effective.
Conclusions: The results demonstrate that when a treatment is not cost-effective, it is not always due to the pricing or effectiveness of the treatment. These results are due to the disease area (high post-progression background costs and low post-progression utility). For many oncology treatments whose primary aim is to extend survival, this impact can be prohibitive to an interventions probability of being cost-effective.
