(ECONOMICS) an alternative metric of poverty; used instead of the poverty level by some researchers.
Developed as a superior alternative to the federal poverty level to estimate the income required for families to pay for their basic needs. Computed at the county level, the SSS takes into account the costs of food, housing, health insurance, childcare, transportation, taxes, and other basic expenses, with component values varying across more than 70 different family types. SSS wages have been calculated to date for all counties in 35 states and the District of Columbia.
Usually people are not concerned by reports of the large numbers of people living below the poverty level, because they assume it just means poor people have to tighten their belts.
The self-sufficiency standard (SSS), if explained, should change this. If a person's wages are below the SSS, then she is not only not making enough to meet her current needs, she's not making enough to preserve her ability to earn what little she has.

Standard form is a way of writing down very large or very small numbers easily. Ex. 2x-3y=-9 is written in standard form
How do you rewrite 2/3 x+ 3 into standard form?

An unimaginable and unattainable prestige of pilot that consist of having all knowledge and experience of aviation. Only the elite of Hamilton decedents can obtain such an honor. This standard allows you to have special privileges, a desire for dramatic situations, and an attention span only matched by small insects.
George: "I wish I had an extended deadline on our aviation test."
Jimmy: "You could if you were as successful as Greg, he is part elite in The Hamilton Standard."
Tim: "My father flys for Delta, I guess I can be within The Hamilton Standard."
Dexter: "False."
Mark: "I'm pretty sure I like girls."
Will: "Then you obiviously arn't in The Hamilton Standard."

Similar to a double standard meaning that someone thinks that they can live/(do things) one way but believes that others can not do the same thing. This term is used almost exclusively when dealing with food

Rick:"Yeah your point?"
Nathan:"Thats not fair you got mad at me last time I ate all of something, thats such an Ice Cream Standard
