Families_USA
|
Families USA is a nonprofit , nonpartisan consumer health advocacy organization . It was co-founded in 1982 by attorney Ronald Pollack , its current executive director , and Philippe Villers , the organization 's current president . Families USA is an influential advocate in Washington , D.C. , and has played a leading role on virtually every major piece of health care legislation , especially the Affordable Care Act -LRB- ACA -RRB- , the Children 's Health Insurance Program -LRB- CHIP -RRB- , numerous Medicaid measures , and the Medicare Part D plan . President Barack Obama credited Families USA with playing an instrumental role in promoting the enactment of the ACA and for the organization 's work helping to implement and protect the historic health legislation . On a printed copy of the ACA displayed in Families USA 's office , President Obama wrote `` To Ron and Families USA -- You made this happen ! '' Families USA is one of the leaders of a national campaign to persuade states to expand Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act , producing analysis documenting the many benefits of extending health coverage for state economies and low-income people . As a result , the organization plays an active role in promoting national and state-specific improvements in this safety-net program . Families USA has organized several structured dialogues on key health care issues among diverse stakeholder organization leaders , including those representing insurers , hospitals , physicians , pharmaceutical companies , business , labor , and consumers . One such dialogue led to the creation of the Campaign for Children 's Health Care , which successfully pushed to extend CHIP . Another set of dialogues sought and achieved common ground on extending health coverage to the uninsured . A more recent dialogue developed proposals for promoting increased quality care at lower costs . On November 23 , 2016 Vanity Fair reported that shortly after Donald Trump won the 2016 presidential election , Families USA held a conference call with more than 1,000 people from all 50 states to discuss efforts to keep the Affordable Care Act alive .

Stagecraft
|
Stagecraft is the technical aspect of theatrical , film , and video production . It includes constructing and rigging scenery ; hanging and focusing of lighting ; design and procurement of costumes ; make-up ; stage management ; audio engineering ; and procurement of props . Stagecraft is distinct from the wider umbrella term of scenography . Considered a technical rather than an artistic field , it is primarily the practical implementation of a scenic designer 's artistic vision . In its most basic form , stagecraft may be executed by a single person -LRB- often the stage manager of a smaller production -RRB- who arranges all scenery , costumes , lighting , and sound , and organizes the cast . Regional theatres and larger community theatres will generally have a technical director and a complement of designers , each of whom has a direct hand in their respective designs . Within significantly larger productions , for example a modern Broadway show , effectively bringing a show to opening night requires the work of skilled carpenters , painters , electricians , stagehands , stitchers , wigmakers , and the like . Modern stagecraft is highly technical and specialized : it comprises many sub-disciplines and a vast trove of history and tradition .

There were no conventional vertical stabilizers , however the covered tailwheel provided a very small amount of surface area for stability . On 14 January 1908 Ellehammer achieved a flight in this machine of 175 m -LRB- 574 ft -RRB- and on 13 February , one of 300 m -LRB- 1,000 ft -RRB- .

Unit_measure
|
Unit measure is an axiom of probability theory that states that the probability of the entire sample space is equal to one -LRB- unity -RRB- ; that is , P -LRB- S -RRB- = 1 where S is the sample space . Loosely speaking , it means that S must be chosen so that when the experiment is performed , something happens . The term measure here refers to the measure-theoretic approach to probability . Violations of unit measure have been reported in arguments about the outcomes of events under which events acquire `` probabilities '' that are not the probabilities of probability theory . In situations such as these the term `` probability '' serves as a false premise to the associated argument .

They came under the skilled migrant point system category in the mid 1990s . A large number have settled in the Unsworth Heights and Albany suburbs . The North Shore Iraqi community is one of the fastest growing middle eastern communities in New Zealand .

Many New Zealand born Iraqis still retain aspects of their culture . This includes Iraqi food , drink , art , annual Iraqi New Zealand feasts , and a strong commitment to extended family .

Luttrell won particular fame after an action he fought in late 1782 , when his ship engaged a powerful convoy of American and French ships and defeated it , capturing two of the vessels and taking them as prizes . King George III commented on his skill and bravery during the fight .
