Bmw Sauber Expects Good Showing at Canadian and US Grands Prix
The Canadian Grand Prix is the sixth race of the season and the race will be held on the tenth of this month. As raceday approaches, Formula One teams are already voicing out their expectations for the race which will be held at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal, Canada. One of the teams busy with preparation for the said race is the BMW Sauber contingent.
Robert Kubica, the Number 2 driver for the team, is apparently looking forward to the race and is expecting a good performance from their cars at the Canadian Grand Prix and even in the next race which is the United States Grand Prix. "Montreal and Indianapolis are low-downforce tracks, " said the Polish driver.
"Our 2006 car always performed better on such circuits, so I hope the F1-07 has kept this tendency. Certainly, the two test days at Paul Ricard with the Montreal layout have indicated that. Therefore, I predict that in Montreal the gap to the McLarens and Ferraris will be closer than in Monaco. But that is crystal ball reading - so let's wait and see, " he furthermore discloses.
Last year, the BMW Sauber Formula One Team only managed to get a seventh place finish from driver Nick Heidfeld. Heidfeld is still driving for BMW Sauber and has taken three fourth place finishes after the first three races of the Current Formula One season. On the fourth race of the season though, Heidfeld's car's gearbox malfunctioned, forcing him to retire. Aside from the transmission, other components of the Formula One car like the BMW ignition coil, and other ignition system components did not suffer any malfunction.
To prepare the cars for the Canadian Grand Prix, BMW Sauber announced that Heidfeld and Kubica will be the ones testing their cars. Sebastian Vettel, the team's test driver, will not be seeing some action when the team prepares their cars for the race. The team will need to prepare well for the race in order to attain a podium finish and that is something that no team other than McLaren and Ferrari has achieved. BMW Sauber is currently on the third spot at the constructor's championship and will be fending off the challenge being made by Williams, Renault, and Toyota.
During the Monaco Grand Prix, Kubica secured a fifth place finish while Heidfeld finished the race sixth. Meanwhile, Renault's Giancarlo Fisichella finished fourth as Renault continually put pressure on BMW Sauber. In fact, Fisichella commented that the Canadian Grand Prix will show Renault back in its championship form. It can be remembered that the team won the last two Formula One seasons. The current season though saw Fernando Alonso leaving the team to join the leading McLaren Mercedes.
BMW Sauber currently has 30 points to their credit as they trail behind McLaren Mercedes and Ferrari. McLaren leads the constructor's championship with 76 points while Ferrari has 56 points. Renault, currently fourth, has 16 points on their side.
BMW Sauber will have to contend not only with Renault and the impressive multiple winners this season in Alonso and Massa for Ferrari but also with the rookie Lewis Hamilton. The young driver for McLaren Mercedes is currently being touted as the next superstar of the sport as he takes solo leadership prior to the Monaco Grand Prix. Hamilton is currently tied with his teammate Alonso for the leadership in the driver's championship.

I have sales projections which tell me how many units are ordered
From this I want to set up a inventory mechanism.

I have 15000 Units of Sales in Feb, so my closing inventory goes to 10000 in Feb
I have another 15000 units of sales in march, so my Inventory would go to -5000 ( which I kno is not possible) , and i would need to order 5000 units to fufill 15000 units puting my closing inventory for march at 0. Further more in April I have another 20000 unit sales, so would need to order 20000 units, How do i put this in a formula context.

Dimensional Analysis?
Before asking the question, Is "dimensional analysis" a way of saying to revert the current formula given? Im just curious.
Well one of the question I am stumped on working on the homework was over a dimesional analysis question.
It says. "Use dimensional analysis for the form u= p^xA^y. Evaluate "u" until the power of x & y is no longer in the form given."
So, How do I work this out?? Thanks!

people who know more about breastfeeding than me - is this correct?? Some girl said this on facebook?
Very few women can make milk as high of a nutrient level (especially fatty acids and omega 3) as current formula can supply. And the initial antibodies that breastmilk gives that is so cherished starts loosing it's importance after the first 6 weeks anyhow because the child's immune sys. is capable of taking care of itself. That you made it this far is way beter than most women can manage. If it makes both of you less stressed out it's just icing on the cake (and I love icing!). I hate when women beat themselves up over breastfeeding. Formula has come a long way. It's not like we're still giving our kids cow's milk. :)

So is tonight's bleeping out of Austin's 'foul language' solid proof that the PG Era ISN'T necessarily good?
The PG era isn't the Anti Christ, but tonight clearly showed the bleeping out of the very basic word '@ss' that you hear EVERYWHERE that the current family friendly formula WWE has isn't necessarily a GOOD thing either
People have said 'PG isn't that bad'. 'I don't need cussing and blood in my wrestling'. Well when you have a character like Steve Austin on there and he's known for the very mannerisms that go against your current formula and he refrains from doing any of it, it's not exactly a smart move. Why have him on at all?
PG can be tolerable, but it can also insult the intelligence of the viewer, as seen tonight. I can walk into Dunkin Donuts and hear the word '@ss' from someone. In the Attitude Era, that word was equivalent to the word 'Hi'
I was a little insulted tonight
If you don't agree with me, don't answer my question and shut up you little mark
This isn't me 'complaining just for the sake of complaining'. I'm right. If you're gonna have a character like him on there, let him be HIM or don't bring him on at all. Besides, what do you know, little kid? I was watching wrestling when you were getting breastfed
