Debts state

I have incurred many debts of gratitude to Prof E. J. Corey of Harvard University, who envisioned this project in the summer of 2002. What he once told me — The desire to learn is the greatest gift from God. —has been a true inspiration. Furthermore, it has been my greatest privilege as well as a pleasure to work with a stellar collection of contributing authors from both academia and industry. Some of them are world-renowned scholars in the field some of them have worked intimately with the name reactions that they have written some of them even took part in the discovery of the name reactions that they authored in this manuscript. As a consequence, this book truly represents the state-of-the-art for Name Reactions in Heterocyclic Chemistry. We will follow up with the second volume to complete the series on heterocyclic chemistry. [Pg.566]

In addition to specific deductions and credits, the Tax Code permits state and local governments to issue bonds on which the interest is exempt from federal income tax. This provision means that states and local governments can borrow at interest rates below those paid by private corporations. Municipally owned electricity providers often can issue tax-exempt debt the lower interest rate may have the effect of increasing the provision of electricity by these entities. [Pg.1121]

As mentioned above, state and local governments can boiTow at relatively low interest rates by issuing tax-exempt debt, and this finance technique is used to a gi eat extent in highway and road construction. By reducing the cost of road construction, tax-exempt debt may increase the amount of construction undertaken, thereby increasing the demand for fuels. [Pg.1122]

Acknowledgments This work was achieved by the diligence and insight of so many colleagues, students, and post-doctoral fellows, to whom we owe an immense debt of gratitude, and facilitated by several grants from the United States National Science Foundation (the most recent being NSF-08-48206). [Pg.78]

If a family member notices any of the symptoms previously mentioned in a loved one, then it may be that the loved one is depressed and should be evaluated by a mental health professional. If a loved one is expressing suicidal thoughts, or it is discovered that he or she has put his or her affairs in order (has sold or given away significant amounts of personal property, written a will, settled debts, etc.), then it would be critical to get help for that person as quickly as possible. Suicide is a major concern with people who abuse drugs, since a majority of suicides in the United States are attempted under the influence of drugs or alcohol. [Pg.62]

Henry hoped that alchemical gold might help him to pay state debts. In 1445 Sir Edmund Trafford and Thomas Asheton were duly granted the right to make gold, and coins were actually minted from the product they produced. But their alchemical gold later proved to be an alloy of mercury, copper, and gold. [Pg.16]

As the state-owned thermal power plants were not appropriately repaired they did not operate. The remaining private operative units operated only part time - mainly due to the lack of funds to purchase the fuel gas. The imports from Russia and Armenia were at a maximum during the winter 2002-2003. Hence, considerable energy debts were built up, that needed to be paid during the summer 2003. [Pg.40]

If we assume that the steady state value in the last week of the 10-hr-pho-toperiod (14 hr in bed) schedule represented the real daily sleep need for this group of subjects, we may conclude that all amounts of sleep above these values represented extra or makeup sleep. Accordingly, the mean payback of sleep debt for the group averaged about 30 hr. For purposes of comparison, individuals who were not at all sleep-deprived would have to spend more than 3 consecutive days with no sleep at all to accumulate a sleep debt of similar magnitude. [Pg.561]

The American Natural Resources Co. had difficulty raising money for the mammoth project which would have produced 125 million cubic feet per day of pipeline quality high-Btu gas. Officials of the company had said that normal debt financing isn t possible because lenders aren t willing to put up the money for what is still an untried process in the United States. Yet outside financing is needed because the partners in the project can only afford to put up 25% of the cost of the plant themselves."... [Pg.143]

These extraordinary measures were perhaps clarified several weeks later when Edgar Bronfman made a personal "loan" to Carey of 350,000 to pay off the Governor s outstanding 1974 campaign debts. The loan was in violation of state and federal campaign financing laws. [Pg.387]

In the United States, the situation was in many ways different. With its large sulfur, natural gas, phosphate, and even potash resources, America s fertilizer industry rested on a sound base. It was an exporter of minerals and fertilizers, and did not have to worry to the same extent as Europe s industry about competing imports from Socialist countries. But reserves of sulfur extracted by the Frasch process have been depleted in Louisiana and Texas, and President Ronald Reagan s payment in kind (PIK) farm-acreage cuts reduced the fertilizer requirement of American farmers. These farmers are also much in debt and are having trouble selling their products on saturated markets. [Pg.6]

As was to be expected, the path to overcapacities aided by state subsidies had brought Italy s chemical industry to the edge of the precipice. In 1981, SIR and Liquichima, on the brink of bankruptcy, had been taken over by ENI, the state-controlled oil group whose own chemical subsidiary ANIC was also losing considerable sums of money. Montedison had been able to show balanced books only once in ten years, in 1979. Its debts had soared to 2 billion in 1984. [Pg.8]
