Quadratic equations, factorization, and imaginary numbers are all math concepts often learned in high school algebra. Now imagine determined fourth, fifth or sixth graders quietly working through these concepts on their own. This is exactly what you would see if you peeked into many Kumon Centers.
As a learning program based on ability, rather than age or grade, Kumon Instructors across North America are helping children learn without limits by inspiring them to reach heights they never imagined possible. It is common to see children in Kumon Centers studying math and/or reading material two to three years above their school grade level.

The Mini Cooper Countryman is the only small car to earn a good rating among the latest group of 12 small cars subjected to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety’s small overlap front crash test.
Two electric models and a hybrid are in the mix, with varied results. The electric-powered Chevrolet Volt (with a gasoline engine “range extender”) earns an acceptable rating, while its battery-electric rival, the Nissan Leaf, earns a poor rating. The Ford C-Max Hybrid, a small four-door wagon, earns an acceptable rating. Another small four-door wagon, the gasoline-powered Mazda 5, is rated poor.
Losing weight and being healthier are at the top of everyone’s New Year’s resolutions. But, despite the best intentions, work, kids, and social events often push lifestyle changes to the bottom of the list. While many are familiar with type 2 diabetes, fewer are aware of prediabetes, a serious health condition that affects 86 million Americans (more than 1 in 3) and often leads to type 2 diabetes. People with prediabetes have higher than normal blood glucose (sugar) levels, but not high enough yet to be diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.
To raise awareness and help people with prediabetes know where they stand and how to prevent type 2 diabetes, the American Diabetes Association (ADA), the American Medical Association (AMA), and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have partnered with the Ad Council to launch the first national public service advertising (PSA) campaign about prediabetes. The PSA campaign, featuring first-of-its-kind communications techniques, was developed pro bono by Ogilvy & Mather New York for the Ad Council.
Nearly 90 percent of people with prediabetes don’t know they have it and aren’t aware of the long-term risks to their health, including type 2 diabetes, heart attack, and stroke. Current trends suggest that, if not treated, 15 to 30 percent of people with prediabetes will develop type 2 diabetes within five years. The good news is that prediabetes often can be reversed through weight loss, diet changes and increased physical activity. Diagnosis is key: research shows that once people are aware of their condition, they are much more likely to make the necessary lifestyle changes.

New midsize SUV ratings from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety show that headlights are improving when it comes to visibility, but many still need to do a better job of lighting the road ahead while limiting bothersome glare.
The 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe and the 2017 Volvo XC60 are the only models available with good-rated headlights among the 19 midsize SUVs and 18 midsize luxury SUVs evaluated in this new round of tests. Twelve SUVs are available with headlights rated acceptable, while 23 aren’t available with anything other than marginal- or poor-rated headlights.
Students at Boston College, Boston University, Carnegie Mellon University, Michigan State University, Northeastern University, Purdue University, University of Minnesota and University of Wisconsin will have an opportunity to Go Further with Ford Motor Company through the College Ambassador Challenge. This marketing initiative, a collaboration with internship expert and founder of InternQueen.com Lauren Berger, is an opportunity to provide knowledge and experience to students so they are better prepared to enter the job market.

Der A3 ist das Volumenmodell von Audi, mehr als 20 Prozent aller Verkäufe der Ingolstädter entfallen auf ihn. Da stellt sich bei jedem Generationswechsel regelmäßig die Frage, ob eine Revolution oder eben nur eine Evolution ansteht. Audi hat sich bei der dritten Generation seines Bestsellers in der Kompaktklasse für eine eigene Lösung entschieden. Moderate Detailarbeit am Blechkleid, aber enorme Aufstockung der inneren Werte. Und zudem noch einen drauf gesetzt. Mit der ab Herbst startenden Limousine ist Audi nun auch erstmals im global größten Marktsegment vertreten. Die Ingolstädter Verkaufsstrategen gehen dabei davon aus, dass die Limousine künftig einen fünfzigprozentigen Verkaufsanteil haben wird, der Volumenanteil also noch steigern wird.
