FEATURE PAPER

The Conservation of Expancia: Second Law of Conservation

The following paper was presented at the 2007 Allied Academies International Conference - Jacksonville. It was written by Andrei G. Aleinikov of International Academy of Genius.

Abstract

This article is a report on the discovery of the second law of conservation - the Law of Conservation of Expancia (expansion of power) that further develops the Bartini/Kuznetsov system of physical laws. The previous law - the Law of Conservation of Extencia (extension of power) described the linear displacement of power (Aleinikov 2006, 2007) and was applicable, for example, to the “extension war,”” like the Napoleon war against Russia in 1812. The next law deals with the Conservation of Expancia (expansion of power) - the term offered for the area spread of power - and it states that under ideal/unchanging conditions Expancia (the area spread of power) remains the same, or constant. The mathematical formula of Expancia is the following: Exp = Ext · S = P · S2 = E · S2/t = const (where Exp is Expancia, Ext is Extencia, P is Power, E is Energy, S is Distance, t is Time). The range of measurement for Expancia is L7T -5. A new unit for measuring the Expancia is called Elen (to commemorate the memory of Elena Aleinikov who courageously gave 34 year of her life for these laws to be formulated and published). Time and place of discovery: December 4, 2006, Monterey, California.

TIP OF THE WEEK

Small Business Creates America's Jobs

Small business continued to create America’s new jobs in 2004, according to the latest data. The updated U.S. Small Business Profile released by the Office of Advocacy inn October shows that small businesses added 1.9 million net new jobs during the latest year studied.

“Small businesses are America’s job-creating dynamo,” said Chad Moutray, chief economist for the Office of Advocacy. “Clearly policymakers need to consider their impact on small businesses when they are making policy decisions.”

Profiles of all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. territories are available. Updated data and statistics on America’s small businesses are available at www.sba.gov/advo/research/profiles.

The updated U.S. profile also shows that:

-In 2006, the nation had an estimated 26.8 million small businesses, of which 6.1 million were employer firms.

-Small businesses employed 50.9 percent of the nation’s non-farm private workforce in 2004.

-America has 1.1 million Asian-owned firms, 1.2 million Black-owned firms, 1.6 million Hispanic-owned firms, 201,400 Native American-owned firms, and 28,900 Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander-owned firms in 2002 (latest data). (Note: these data cannot be totaled, as business owners choose multiple ethnic and racial categories.)

-Women owned firms totaled 6.5 million and generated $940.8 billion in revenues in 2002 (latest data).
