SNAP has broad reach and assists low-income households substantially with their food purchases. Figure 1 shows the monthly number of SNAP participants in Panel A and distributed benefits per household since 2019 in Panel B. The early substantial drop, both in participation and benefits, marks the disruption due to the government shutdown, which caused most of the February 2019 benefits to be distributed early in January 2019.2Participation in SNAP increased at the beginning of the pandemic—4 million more people enrolled from February to April in 2020—and has remained around the same level

Hence, by engaging in extra-pair copulations with highly ornamented males, females could, in theory, obtain genes for increased offspring attractiveness. Indeed, sons sired by extra-pair partners had larger ornaments, seemingly supporting the genetic benefit h

The social benefits that flowed from the extra social welfare spending include improved economic security and reduction in income poverty. These benefits, which are non-quantifiable, are supplemented by the quantifiable addition to GNP which arises from a more highly-educated

Abstract:
In many species, each female pairs with a single male for the purpose of rearing offspring, but may also engage in extra-pair copulations. Despite the prevalence of such promiscuity, whether and how multiple mating benefits females remains an open question. Multiple mating is typically thought to be favoured primarily through indirect benefits (i.e. heritable effects on the fitness of offspring). This prediction has been repeatedly tested in a variety of species, but the evidence has been equivocal, perhaps because such studies have focused on pre-reproductive survival rather than lifetime fit

Abstract:
The forces driving the evolution of extra-pair reproduction in socially monogamous animals remain widely debated and unresolved. One key hypothesis is that female extra-pair reproduction evolves through indirect genetic benefits, reflecting increased additive genetic value of extra-pair offspring. Such evolution requires that a female's propensity to produce offspring that are sired by an extra-pair male is heritable. However, additive genetic variance and heritability in female extra-pair paternity (EPP) rate have not been quantified, precluding accurate estimation of the force of indirect se

In this paper, we present a case report on the possible health effects of changing from olive oil to extra virgin olive oil.

AbstractExtra-pair paternity is known to be common in many socially monogamous avian species. One question to which much attention has been paid is which benefits females might gain from copulations outside the pair bond. The 'good genes' hypothesis suggests that females obtain indirect benefits (i.e. good genes for at least part of their offspring). To test predictions from this hypothesis we analysed paternity in a study on great tits (Parus major) over 5 years.

Abstract:
This article deals with the problems of designing a textbook for higher school of the new format. Based on the analysis of works on the theory of the textbook describes the structural components of textbook - text and extra-textual components, their functions and new approaches to their design for a new paradigm of higher education. The basic requirements for the design of the text component benefits, namely compliance with general didactic principles, specific features of the discipline - taking into account the characteristics of the text (logical presentation of materials, complexity and di

Abstract:
Purpose The benefits of “green dementia care”, whereby people living with dementia are supported to connect with nature, are increasingly being recognised. Evidence suggests that these benefits span physical, emotional and social spheres and can make a significant contribution towards quality of life. However, care settings often present specific challenges to promoting such connections due to a range of factors including risk-averse cultures and environmental limitations. The purpose of this paper is to report on a project that aims to explore the opportunities, benefits, barriers and enabler

Abstract:
Resveratrol and extra virgin olive oil are both recognized for their potential protective effects against age-related diseases. This overview highlights their mechanisms of action, health benefits, and the scientific evidence supporting their roles in promoting longevity and cognitive health. A literature search was conducted. Important findings related to the health benefits, mechanisms of action, and clinical implications of resveratrol and EVOO were summarized. Both resveratrol and EVOO have complementary mechanisms that may enhance their anti-aging effects. Resveratrol and EVOO are promisi

Abstract:
‘Building with Nature’ solutions seem like a logical alternative to technical solutions. Working with nature instead of against it might save civil engineering costs. But will it also generate additional civil engineering benefits? Typical engineering benefits are related to flood prevention, transportation and sand mining. Both technical and natural solutions can produce these benefits. Natural solutions, however, may produce additional ecosystem benefits. These are rarely accounted for in investment decisions about engineering projects. This is not surprising as there are no rules stating th

Modern SUs like glimepiride and gliclazide XR were preferred over conventional SUs due to its better efficacy and minimal side effects. The use of Modern SUs in the treatment armamentarium of T2DM has evolved, over past few decades. Modern SUs possesses beneficial pancreatic glucose lowering effect and more interestingly extra-pancreatic pleiotropic benefits. T

Abstract:
Abstract For House Sparrows, Passer domesticus, it has been proposed that the size of a male's throat badge correlates with his success in avoiding cuckoldry as well as obtaining extra-pair copulations (EPCs), and that females gain indirect (genetic) benefits from EPCs with large-badged males. Alternatively, female House Sparrows may engage in EPCs as a guard against their social mate's infertility. We used multi-locus DNA fingerprinting to examine paternity and found that among 41 broods and 136 offspring, 20% of the offspring were attributable to extra-pair fertilizations (EPFs). Forty-one p

Abstract:
In the course of a case study, a number of issues regarding the dynamics of blood cholesterol levels were identified. In this follow-up report, these issues are addressed. For example, issues of past behaviour and seasonality, intraindividual variation, and nonstationarity appear important over and above controllable variables such as diet and exercise. In this report, we conceptualise an alternative protective role for the dynamic blood cholesterol levels in a healthy population. Furthermore, regular consumption of extra virgin olive oil as produced in this case study may interact with the dy
