Cooperative bargaining is a negotiation strategy where parties work together to reach a mutually beneficial agreement. Unlike competitive negotiation, where the focus is on maximizing one's own gain often at the expense of the other party, cooperative bargaining emphasizes collaboration and finding a win-win solution. Key aspects of cooperative bargaining include: 1. **Open Communication**: Parties are encouraged to share their interests, preferences, and constraints openly, fostering trust and understanding.
Effects bargaining refers to the negotiation process between employers and labor unions regarding the impact of a managerial decision on employees, particularly when such decisions may affect their working conditions, job security, or employment terms. This process typically occurs after an employer makes a decision that may change the scope of work, such as layoffs, relocations, or changes in work processes.
Intra-household bargaining refers to the negotiation and decision-making processes that occur within a household, where individuals (often family members) discuss and make choices regarding resource allocation, responsibilities, and roles. This concept is commonly used in the fields of economics, sociology, and gender studies to analyze how power dynamics and relationships influence the distribution of resources, labor, and decision-making authority among household members.

Basketball clubs in international competitions refer to professional basketball teams that participate in tournaments and leagues that feature clubs from multiple countries. These competitions provide a platform for teams to compete at a high level beyond their national leagues and often feature some of the best players and clubs in the world. Here are some of the notable international competitions for basketball clubs: 1. **EuroLeague**: The EuroLeague is the top-tier European professional basketball club competition.
Basketball statistics can vary significantly by league due to differences in rules, styles of play, and levels of competition. Below are some key basketball leagues along with a summary of their typical statistics: ### 1. **NBA (National Basketball Association)** - **Common Statistics**: Points, Rebounds, Assists, Steals, Blocks, Field Goal Percentage (FG%), Three-Point Percentage (3P%), Free Throw Percentage (FT%), Turnovers, Plus/Minus.

Most of these are going to be Whole-genome sequencing of some model organism:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whole_genome_sequencing#History lists them all. Basically th big "firsts" all happened in the 1990s and early 2000s.

These are very simple, they just check for exact state repetitions, which obviously imply that they will run forever.
Unfortunately, cyclers may need to run through an initial setup phase before reaching the initial cycle point, which is not very elegant.
Also, we have no way of knowing the initial setup length of the actual cycle length, so we just need an arbitrary cutoff value.
And unfortunately, this can lead to misses, e.g. Skelet machine #1, a 5 state machine, has a (translated) cycle that starts at around 50-200M steps, and takes 8 trillion steps to repeat.
Career achievements for basketball players can vary significantly based on their level of play, the leagues they compete in, and individual performance. Here are some common categories of achievements that basketball players may attain throughout their careers: ### 1. **Individual Honors** - **All-Star Selections:** Recognizing the top players in a league, especially in the NBA. - **MVP Awards:** Most Valuable Player awards are given at various levels, including league MVPs and Finals MVPs.
Alexander Volberg by Wikipedia Bot 0
As of my last knowledge update in October 2021, there is no widely recognized person or entity named Alexander Volberg. If this name has become relevant due to recent events or developments, I wouldn't have that information. It’s possible that Alexander Volberg could refer to a private individual, a fictional character, or a person who has gained prominence after my last update.
College men's basketball records and statistics in the United States encompass a wide range of historical data, achievements, and performance metrics for college teams and players. Here are some key categories and examples of the records and statistics that are commonly tracked: ### Team Records - **Most NCAA Championships**: The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) holds the record for the most NCAA championships, with 11 titles.

Lists of college basketball statistical leaders by team typically provide information on various records and statistics held by teams within college basketball programs. These lists can include top performances in categories such as points scored, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, and more. Each college team usually maintains its own set of records, which can be categorized by single-game, single-season, and career statistics. Some common categories might include: 1. **Points**: Leaders in total points scored in a game, season, or career.
AAU basketball, or Amateur Athletic Union basketball, is an organization that oversees various youth sports, including basketball. The records for AAU men's basketball include various categories such as tournament results, individual player achievements, and team performances. However, the AAU does not maintain a centralized record-keeping system like professional leagues.
Advanced statistics in basketball refer to a set of metrics and analytical tools that go beyond traditional statistics (like points, rebounds, and assists) to provide deeper insights into player performance, team dynamics, and overall game strategy. These advanced metrics help coaches, analysts, and fans evaluate the effectiveness of players and teams in more nuanced ways.
In basketball, an assist is a statistic that credits a player for a pass that directly leads to a made basket by a teammate. The player who makes the pass is awarded the assist if the recipient scores the basket without any significant interruption, such as dribbling or excessive delay. Assists are important because they reflect a player's ability to facilitate teamwork, enhance ball movement, and create scoring opportunities for others.
The first thing we did was to filter the water samples with a membrane filter that is so fine that not even bacteria can pass through, but water can.
Therefore, after filtration, we would have all particles such as bacteria and larger dirt pieces in the filter.
From the 1 liter in each bottle, we only used 400 ml because previous experiments showed that filtering the remaining 600 ml is very time consuming because the membrane filter gets clogged up.
Therefore, the filtration step allows us to reduce those 400 ml volumes to more manageable Eppendorf tube volumes: Figure 1. "An Eppendorf tube". Reagents are expensive, and lab bench centrifuges are small!

Since the filter is so fine, filtering by gravity alone would take forever, and so we used a vacuum pump to speed thing up!

Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
We have two killer features:
  1. topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculus
    Articles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
    • a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
    • a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
    This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.

  2. local editing: you can store all your personal knowledge base content locally in a plaintext markup format that can be edited locally and published either:
    This way you can be sure that even if OurBigBook.com were to go down one day (which we have no plans to do as it is quite cheap to host!), your content will still be perfectly readable as a static site.
    Figure 5. . You can also edit articles on the Web editor without installing anything locally.
