HPV Vaccine - merge in material from Gardasil article (when don't want to do a lot of thinkin).

Comparison contra methods - note 6

One more recent study found higher effectiveness if guidelines were consistently adhered to,Frank-Herrmann P, et al (2007). "The effectiveness of a fertility awareness based method to avoid pregnancy in relation to a couple's sexual behaviour during the fertile time: a prospective longitudinal study". Human Reproduction 22 (5): 1310-1319. PMID 17314078.  see Fertility awareness#Effectiveness.

[edit] Pap

Edits to the criticism section should be carried over to HPV vaccine article.

Australia section isn't criticism. (Just anecdote of some reactions. Criticism bit was unsourced.)

Canada is cost effectiveness. (Should go under future impact, as should the part of safety and effectiveness about commentary by researcher.)

Efficacy & safety also has "criticism" material - combine?

Look at HPV vaccine sections also (consider how to combine this stuff).


Combine?

Vaccine controversie - Financial - include financial interest of critics. (Influenza critic who had financial interest in lawsuit. Malpractice industry.) Vaccines not highly profitable (influenza vaccine hard to manufacture - few makers, articles on subject from few years ago.) (Compare to viagra, supplements.)

Separate religion and alternative medicine from arguments against - they are not arguments against per se.

Give more ballanced view (not all religions oppose), not all alternative medicine opposes. (Highly compatible with some alternative med theories.)

[edit] FP

Plan for mother and child health.

For maternal and baby’s health, wait until mother is at least 18 years old, before trying to become pregnant.[1]

[edit] Spacing

If desire an additional child, healthiest for mother and succeeding child to wait at least 2 years after previous birth before attempting to conceive (but not more than 5 years).[1] After a miscarriage or abortion, wait at least 6 months.[1]

References for USAID HTSP

Child spacing less than 18 months or more than 5 years resulted in increased risk of premature birth or low birth rate. [2]

"4 million babies die each year within a month of birth, including almost 19,000 in the U.S. The World Health Organization estimates that just over a fourth of these deaths are directly related to premature birth."

"In the United States between 6% and 10% of pregnancies among women who have already given birth occur less than six months after childbirth."

"Researchers found that infants born to women who conceived less than six months after giving birth had a 40% increased risk for being born prematurely and a 61% increased risk of low birth weight, compared with infants born to mothers who waited 18 months to two years between pregnancies." [3] (Based on article in JAMA)


[edit] Resources

Raising a child uses significant amount of resources. Money[4], time[5], social, environmental. Planning can help assure that resources are available. (needs citation)

[edit] Financial

Childbirth and prenatal health care cost averaged $7,090 for normal delivery in 1996.[6]

Estimated expenses raise child born in 2007 to age 17:

$196,010 $269,040 $393,230 (low mid high income groups)[5]

11,500 15,800 23,100 (average annual expenditure).

College expenses (average annual expenses 2007-2008)[5]

at 4-year public colleges (in-State) tuition and fees averaged $6,185, room and board $7,404

at 4-year private (nonprofit) colleges tuition and fees averaged $23,712, room and board $8,595

For 2-year public colleges, tuition and fees averaged $2,360

"College Board (2008) estimated that in 2007-2008, annual average (enrollment-weighted) tuition and fees were $6,185 at 4-year public colleges (in-State tuition) and $23,712 at 4-year private (nonprofit) colleges; annual room and board was $7,404 at 4-year public colleges and $8,595 at 4-year private colleges. For 2-year colleges in 2007-2008, annual average tuition and fees were $2,360 at public colleges."[5]

The global average Water Footprint is 1240 m³ water/person/year. The Chinese average is 700 m³ water/person/year one of the smallest in the world and the United States's 2480 m³ water/person/year is the largest in the world.[11]

[edit] Green

High performance GPUs often consume more energy than current CPUs.[1] (Resurect part on vide cards, here is a reference).


[6] Importance of low power in high performance computing. - Might use as ref in Green computing, or in Performance per watt, also delves into DVFS.

Items somebody removed from see also in green computing - check for merit:

Public computers and information resources located at a library, internet cafe or telecenter.


Power over Ethernet - remote on/off X10


  • Standby power - cleanup after merging in Phantom load.
    • Phantom load - merge into standby power
    • Sleep mode merge most of it into standby power


Minimalism (computing) - may have a place in green c. Software bloat

[edit] Frequency and voltage scaling

Duplicates a bunch of the material in some of the other energy saving/etc. articles.


[edit] Frequency

These also might be merged into it

Merge Dynamic freq. and freq. scaling, merge into frequency and voltage scaling. Underclock probably also.

    • Overclock - probably big enough to leave separate).

[edit] Voltage

(Related, but may apply to other than CPU)

Also dual-voltage CPU

There is proposal to merge overvolt, undervolt into dynamic voltage scaling. Overlap not complete - suggest move to

 voltage scaling, (with dynamic voltage scaling being a redirect).  
 Then undervolt and overvolt would fit within scope.

[edit] Clock

Clean your clock: Clock signal Should be merged: - bunch of small articles, each with just a bit of the picture (or more coherent overview to link them).

Maybe this all should be merged into clock signal also. (Would be improved by a reference to actually show if this is a multiplier, or misnomer.)

CPU clock ratio locking, clock multiplier locking, etc.)

      • Clock doubling - merged into above


Side note - digital circuits it is hard to get down to an explanation of what it means (it is there, just have to dig through several levels and it is buried). A synchronous circuit is a digital circuit in .... Digital circuit takes you to digital electronics, which says: Digital electronics are electronics systems that use digital signals. Digital signals says: "The term digital signal is used to refer to more than one concept. It can refer to discrete-time signals that are digitized, or to the waveform signals in a digital system." And finally digital takes you to a useful definition.

[edit] Performance per watt

Main article: Performance per watt

Created from FLOPS per watt

  • Redirects
    • instructions per watt, MIPS/watt, MIPJ, MIPSPW, MIPW-S - redirect to above
    • Processing power fixed to instr/sec. (power maybe go to disambiguation performance per watt or instructions per second or FLOPS)
  • Examples:

CDC 6600 3 MFLOPS ?? power


especially clock rate, voltage (some coverage in under/over clock/volt articles).
