About Skin, Hair and Nails. Skin is our largest organ. If the skin of a typical 150-pound (68-kilogram) adult male were stretched out flat, it would cover about 2 square yards (1.7 square meters) and weigh about 9 pounds (4 kilograms). Our skin protects the network of muscles, bones, nerves, blood vessels, and everything else inside our bodies. Our eyelids have the thinnest skin, the soles of our feet the thickest. Hair is actually a modified type of skin. Hair grows everywhere on the human body except the palms of the hands, soles of the feet, and lips. Hair grows more quickly in summer than winter, and more slowly at night than during the day. Like hair, nails are a type of modified skin.
BN - Annual Benefits Base Rate (ABBR) GENERAL DESCRIPTION: PeopleSoft delivers a way to define an amount to be used in the calculation of life and disability insurance. This amount is referred to as Annual Benefits Base Rate or ABBR. Separate ABBRâs will be configured for State Group Life (SGL) and Income Continuation Insurance (ICI) since these amounts can be different.
SPECIAL REPORT: Maximizing Social Security Benefits. Your Social Security benefits are calculated based on your highest 35 years of earnings or half of your spouseâs benefits -- whichever is higher -- if you retire at full retirement age (currently 66). For a worker retiring at age 66 in 2012, the maximum benefit is currently $2,513 per month. If both you and your spouse earned the maximum amount that counts every year ($110,100 in 2012, but just $16,500 in 1977), you could each receive the maximum monthly benefits.
