![Catholicism In America
On January 20, 1961, the first Catholic President of the United States of America was
sworn into office. John F. Kennedy held the office of the president during one of the
most turbulent times in the history of the United States; the Cold War was in full
swing, the Vietnam War was underway, the Civil Rights Movement was gaining
momentum, and America was undergoing a large cultural revolution. Many
important events required a variety of responses, and instrumental in JFK s
administration was his brother, Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy, the driving

![Screening for Mental Health
One evidence based intervention is designed by Screening for Mental Health [SMH],
the program is called Signs of Suicide [SOS]. The Signs of Suicide program is an
award winning program and it is also a nationally recognized program (). The Signs
of Suicide program is designed for youth of various ages ranging from middle school
and the way to high school(). This program helps students learn how to point out
signs of depression and suicidein themselves or in their friends or family. This
program recognizes the emotional distress that often follows the aftermath of a
completed suicide. Suicide, according to the Signs of Suicide Program is both
recognizable and treatable. A well designed prevention program can educate the
youth on how to spot the warning signs of depression, in people they love. The
Signs of Suicide Program provides everyday risk management tools and information
to judge, prevent and respond to signs of suicide ().
This program is split up into two different presentation groups; Middle school and
High school students. This is because both programs are administered slightly
different in terms of content. The high school program is appropriate for students
in grades 9 12, and the middle school is designed for grades 6 8. In both the high
school and middle school programs they stress involvement of peer and classmates as

Men of his ilk are not uncommon in the socio political landscape then and now and
we may well be moved to wonder what formative childhood experiences shaped the
personality of these difficult, although at times necessary leaders. On the surface,
Shakespeare s words seem to provide us with a simple, direct answer at least for
Coriolanus: the text directly informs us that Coriolanus s difficult personality is
attributable to the way his mother, Volumnia, brought him up. And we hear this from

Kahn, in her psychoanalytic exploration of the childhood origin of Coriolanus s
character structure, writes of Volumnia: By thrusting him from dependency and
thrusting onto him a warrior self of her own devising, Volumnia effectively murdered
the babe in Coriolanus, the loving and vulnerable self within him (p. 172.).3 Adelman
expresses a similar formulation in her essay: Coriolanus incorporates not only his
mother s attitude toward food but also the transformations in mode implicit in her
image of Hector. These transformations from feeding to warfare, from vulnerability to
aggressive attack, from incorporation to spitting out are at the centre of Coriolanus s
character and our responses to him; for the whole of his masculine identity depends
on his transformation of his vulnerability into an instrument of attack (p.149). Garber
concurs, arguing that [Coriolanus] is a boy in his uncritical submission to Volumnia;
he is either her submissive son or a mechanical man .... (p. 46) And, of course, all of
these formulations are completely consistent with modern developmental psychology,
which holds that the child s earliest experiences with the mother are crucial for
personality formation and that difficulties in this area bode ill for the child s future](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/persuasiveessayongoingtocollege-240206161802-8e929c93/85/Persuasive-Essay-On-Going-To-College-pdf-29-320.jpg)

Sopa, Dmca, And Hipaa Alexander Lau ITP 125 Final Paper May 7, 2016 SOPA, DMCA, and HIPAA With the introduction of computers and the internet opens limitless possibilities for the world to become so much more interconnected and interactive. However, that same limitless potential is both a blessing and a curse. The open internet is a system that allows for unlimited access to almost any sort of information. That same openness makes security for one s self difficult and there isn t anyone who is completely secure. The introduction of the internet for broad use and public consumption also came with the federal government s attempts to prevent the theft of personal information. In the late 1990s, President Bill Clinton signed into law two provisions to protect copyright and affordability of healthcare: the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. In 2011, a bill was introduced into the United States House of Representatives called the Stop Online Privacy Act (SOPA) to combat online copyright infringement and online trafficking in counterfeit goods. Obviously the DMCA and SOPA have much more in common as they deal with copyright infringement. As such, they also have a profound impact on information security. HIPAA is important as well as it keeps confidential information like medical records to only be accessed by patients and medical professionals. All three of them touched on an important subject, information security, that warrants the

- 5. Who Is Zeena A Villain Upon reading Ethan Frome, it was difficult to immediately identify a character that caused the majority of the conflict throughout the novel. After considering all of the story s main problems, Zeena appeared to be the villain who caused most of them. She should be considered the most villainous character due to the fact that she directly inhibits her husband s happiness on various accounts, contributes to and indirectly encourages his destructive and rash decisions, and has the stereotypical villainous attribute of an intimidating presence, even when she is physically elsewhere. Without Zeena in his life, Ethan dfound himself in very different circumstances. She is the one direct cause of him not pursuing his relationship with Mattie, not only because of their marriageand the fact that she does not like Mattie and is constantly telling Ethan that she should be fired. While this comes across as harsh and unjust, her point of view is understandable because no woman would want to watch her husband cheat with their housekeeper that also happens to be her cousin. However, she has a very strong personality that conveys that she allows no fun or happiness in her presence, therefore directly contributing to her husband s depressed mood and lack of motivation. The fact that she has this power over Ethan proves that her personality is that of a powerful villain. Another quality Zeena possesses that proves her villain status is that she is constantly influencing her husband to make

In contrast diversity in a group will help the members come up with non identical ideas and views thereby finishing the task with better efficiency (Leonard, Graham, Bonacum, 2004). All the members started feeling important in the team, which therefore overpowered the negatives arising due to the diversity. According to Waller (2004), Gupta (2004) Giambatista (2004), proper communication without any deviations play a key role in boosting the productivity of the overall team. Nixon (2014), Johnson and Wiggs (2011) claimed that effective speaking is key for a good team. Also the research (Wu Xiao, 2011; Peterson, 2012) supports my argument. It says that the individuals in a team should be frank in their approach and should stand by their own arguments until completely convinced by the logic. Hence I tried not to give up on my opinion as Danks (2012, p24) categorized a clear and reasoned thinker and communicator . Clear communication and open expression of views and ideas will build up the cohesiveness of team. This in turn also develops a better understanding which is a must to work together. Later on, the work was delegated within us to improve the self, show courage, persistence and effective determination (DuPont 2013, p.69).

Growing up in a diverse family of Dominicans, Italians, and Cubans to working in different nursing homes helped me as I met many walks of life. Comprehension, openness, and compassion towards other are very important on having perspective. This skill helps me academically on a subject where I can speak confidently knowing all the many viewpoints expressed. History is another love I have. The way people live and act always fascinated me because it gives you an in depth look on the way social behavior influences people s actions. Doing a book report in 8th Grade on my Dominican heritage fueled further curiosity of the past and how it affects the present. History always repeats itself. History is the most fascinating narrative with storylines, characters, the greatest minds, most giving and noble, and the most ludicrous, violent too. It s the footprint of humanity and all its achievements, all inclusive, and deserving of our observation whether we re fearful of it or not.

However, experts agree that influenza and influenza related deaths could be significantly prevented if people took the influenza vaccine annually. The influenza virus is a deadly virus that has been killing people since the 1900s; in 1918 the first recorded epidemic of a strain of influenzaknown as the Spanish flu killed approximately 50 million people ( Pandemic Flu History ). Because people did not know what the virus was or how to fight against it, it spread very fast. However, after the vaccinewas made, later epidemics such as the 1957, 1968, and 2009 epidemics were not as fatal, killing approximately one million people worldwide. Vaccines played a large role in human history in fighting and preventing diseases from annihilating human beings. This paper will discuss the economic aspects of whether it should be mandatory for hospital health care workers to take the flu vaccine. Paula Sullivan, a seasoned nurse practitioner, discusses how influenza is an infectious disease that takes place in temperate regions around the world which results in approximately the death of 500,000 people annually worldwide; 226,000 people get hospitalized and 36,000 die from influenza annually in the United States alone (Sullivan). Most of the people who die from the influenza virus are aged 65 years or older and that is usually because other diseases are

Jesse James and his gang planned and succeeded at the first robbery of a moving train. They robbed the train the evening of July 21st, 1873. The train was only a mile and a half west of Adair, Iowa. Early in July they learned that $75,000 was going to come through Adair, and started devising a plan to rob it. Jesse sent his brother Frank and Cole Younger to go to Omaha and acquire more information about when the gold shipment was going to go through. When they received this information they were quick to devise a plan. They managed to pull out the spikes connecting the rails using a rope, and jerk the railroad out of the ground. By doing this they were able to send the engine into a ditch, and topple the train onto the side. Two of the gang members, supposedly Jesse and Frank, broke into the safe. They only discovered $2,000. The shipment had been delayed, so they only ended up collecting $3,000 from the gold shipment and from pilfering the passengers. Often times robberies would not be as plentiful as they hoped. They would not end up getting as much money as they hoped. Frank James was quoted saying We sometime didn t get enough to buy oats for our horses. Most banks had very little money in them. But there is one robbery that they say was the most disastrous, and the most famous. On September 7th, 1876 the James gang was almost destroyed while attempting to rob the First National Bank, in Northfield

When compared to the literature IR of methyl m nitrobenzoate (chemicalbook.com), the experimental IR appears to be valid. This is because the interested peaks are shown to be in its expected positions. The 2955.5 peak indicates the presence of C H bond stretch of sp2. The 1730 peak indicates the C=O. The 1535.1 indicates NO2 stretch. The TLC analyzed the polarity between methyl benzoate, crude methyl 3 nitrobenzoate, and purified methyl 3 nitrobenzoate. The solvent that was used was 20% ethyl acetate/hexane. Methyl benzoate had a higher Rf value than the nitro benzoate indicating that methyl benzoate had low polarity. Since the crude and pure product had close but not the same Rf values, it indicates that the crude product contained a lot of the pure product before the recrystallization took place. In addition, the 1H NMR indicated that the product was methyl 3 nitrobenzoate. The obtained 1H NMR corresponds to the literature 1H NMR (pg. 76 of manual). The number of peaks shows how many different H atoms are present in the product. The splitting patterns confirmed the positions of the H atoms. There two peaks, ~1.6 and 7.2, indicates the presence of the water and CDCI3 respectively. However, the water only showed up at a very small concentration which indicates that there was very little water present in the results. The triplet at ~7.65 indicates that the split occurred between two H atoms should have been seen as a multiplet but rather

Examples Of Formative Assessment For Vocabulary I.INTRODUCTION Vocabulary or word knowledge is a very important area of a language, and plays a crucial role for learners in acquiring a second language (Cameron, 2001). Without vocabulary, learning all other language skill is impossible. Therefore, helping students to master English vocabulary is not only concerned with providing necessary input but also requires appropriate assessment. There are a number of ways to assess students word knowledge both formal and informal test. Many classroom friendly vocabulary assessments are available that inform instruction and measure vocabulary growth (Stahl Bravo, 2010). Also, teachers can use various summative assessments to assess student vocabulary knowledge and growth. This paper aims at discovering formative assessment, then examining five activities that can be used as formative assessment for vocabulary. The final part focuses on introduce and evaluate of one of these five activities. The materials, procedures for conducting this activity as well as its benefits and drawbacks will be deeply analyzed.

The pitcher will find a seam that will give resistance to the middle finger to get more control and spin on the ball. This is how the spin on the curveball is so tight. According to Steven Ellis, The throwing elbow must be equal to or slightly above the throwing shoulder. You must stay over the top when you throw the curveball. Throwing it when it s under your shoulder then you put additional stress on your arm. Also if the arm is at an angle larger than 90 degrees then it also puts additional stress on your arm. The placement of your arm will be alot closer to your head then you re normal fastball. It will be slightly up and away from your ear. When you release the curveball you want to release it out in front of you. The way you release the ball is the type of action you want the pitch to have. When releasing a curveball, your wrist will be hooked and your hand will pull down in front of your body, says Steven Ellis. The further you release the ball from your head, the less grip you will have on the ball, resulting in a looser spin on your pitch. It is extremely important that you maintain similar arm speed with your curveball that you have with your fastball. A hitter reads arm speed. says Steven

Not all of these assumptions and beliefs are in line with cognitive science literature. First, the Nova Scotia mathematics curriculum states that, students learn by attaching meaning to what they do and need to construct their own meaning of mathematics (Nova Scotia Department of Educationand Early Childhood Development, 2014, p. 25).

National infant mortality rates vary from 18.8 deaths per 1000 live births in Cape Verde to 89.9 deaths per 1000 live births in Guinea Bissau. Nonetheless, the leading causes of infant mortality are largely the same across the region: neonatal conditions (26 percent), malaria (21 percent), pneumonia (21 percent), diarrhea (17 percent), measles (6 percent) and HIV/AIDS (4 percent). The desired children hypothesis of fertility asserts that high fertility primarily reflects desired number of children (Pritchett, 1994). In this regard, high infant mortality may motivate women to have more children to attain their preferred family size. Thus aside the important population health implications of reducing high infant mortality rates, demographic theory predicts that improved child survival is accompanied by declines in fertility reflecting reduced demand for replacement births to achieve a given target family size. The influence of reduced infant mortality on fertility decline has also been established empirically in a wide range of settings (Barnum, 1988). Declines in infant mortality, falls in fertility rates, and lower average family sizes lead to changes in population age structure and stimulate increased female labor

According to Van de Ven Sun (2011), it is very important for any change being made to be consistent with the organization s long term goals.

ABS Corporation is currently undergoing an organizational change, on how services are being offered and delivered to the client.

It is at this stage that frustrations and anger will occur as employees feel uncomfortable and scared. Also this stage forces the organization to rethink its behavior and values in order to adjust to the coming change. Two factors play a huge role in the success of the change at this stage: communication and time. Paun (2014), views time as necessary is order to people to not only understand the coming change, but adapt to the change. Communication makes employees feel important throughout the process. For the past ten years, ABS Corporation has been operating under a holistic model with customers. This model did not allow the sales department to sell the appropriate solution to the clients, nor did it allow the implementation department to design a solution that best fit the clients. Although the productivity was favorable, the quality provided to clients were not up to the industry s standards. Also the firm did not properly maximize the provided resources as there was no clear direction for selling and designing solutions. After further research, the variable model will be introduced within the coming months. This model will provide a more customize service to clients. In designing this product, the firm s mission to provide the best level of service and products, was taken into consideration. The variable model is made up of three packages: the silver,

Planes crashed into these buildings and killed thousands of people, and injured even more. This tore families apart. Also, many people believed that Muslim and Islamic people were responsible for the terrorist attacks. This was a very sad time for the nation because it was very rough for citizens with different races and religions. In the story Hum by Naomi Shihab Nye, the cartoon Ahmed Mohamed by Adam Zyglis and the article How 9/11 Changed These Muslims Americans Lives Forever by Lydia O Connor, it is clear that the aftermath of 9/11 resulted in horrible discrimination around the USA. In the story, Hum, by Naomi Shihab Nye, a young Palestinian boy named Sami faces discrimination first hand from his classmates after the terrorist attacks of 9/11.

The newspaper title clearly shows that Muslims and Arabs are being treated unfairly because it is not a crime to build a clock. The young teen, Mohamed, was arrested because people around him thought he was building a bomb since he is Muslim. This is one of many acts of discrimination because people assumed that he was building an explosive. In the picture, Uncle Sam says that his clock is stuck at 9/11 because 9/11 was a time period where discrimination was so strong. This shows that even years after this terrible occurrence people in America still discriminate against Muslims because of an event that happened so long
- 22. The Model Of Teacher Stress Teacher Stress The incidence of occupational stress has been well recognised in many professions over the last 20 years (Howard Johnson, 2004). Stress is a common phase in most professions. However, stress has been persistently associated with the helping profession including teaching. Teaching is one of the high stressprofessions (Travers Cooper, 1996; Kyriacou, 2000). As teachers are particularly at risk, teacher stress is an international phenomenon, and this is indicated by the extensive well researched literature across a wide range of different countries (Borg Falzon, 1990; Pithers Soden, 1998; Brown, Ralph, Bember, 2002). Early analysis on the model of teacher stress came from Kyriacou and Sutcliffe (1978) who defined teacher stress as an unpleasant negative emotion such as anxiety, anger, frustration, tension or depression experienced by a teacher from some aspect of their work. The model of teacher stress reflects the importance of a teacher s perception of a threat (Kyriacou Sutcliffe, 1978). A stressful situation is identified when a situation is perceived as threatening. Negative emotional experiences are commonly triggered when teachers perceived the physical or ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Teachers become less patient, involved, caring and tolerant when the feelings of anxiety continue (BlasГ©, 1986). They may also become unrealistically biased in their assessments and judgments towards the students and this results in negative outcomes for the students (Abidin Robinson, 2002). Feeling of self blame removes the socially and emotionally of teachers from their students. Self blame is express from the anger towards self, feeling of self pity and feeling of guilt (BlasГ©, 1986). Teachers may also experience a loss of enthusiasm which causes teachers to reduce their efforts of elaborating on the subject matter, creative involvement and humour (BlasГ©,

At an early age Manson showed signs of a serial killer, in elementary he would gain followers of mostly gullible girls and tell them to attack other girls but when teachers questioned Manson he would tell them that the girls had done the acts on their own will and he had nothing to do with it. Charles Manson s teen years and 20 s had been mostly served behind bars for petty crimes. At age 32 Charles Manson was released from a ten year sentence and was eager to create a family. Charles had pulled in multiple girls who had been runaways or lonely girls who just wanted to be a part of something bigger. Later as the family grew Manson had also pulled in men.

The A380 is made in passenger or freight versions. The A380 800 is the largest passenger plane in the world. When passenger areas are divided into three classes, the A380 can seat 550 passengers. When the entire plane is designated economy class, it can seat 853 people. There is 50% more cabin floor space than the Boeing 747because the A380s upper deck goes the entire length of the fuselage ( Airbus a380airfield, 2011).

According to FAA Order 5300, airports may submit Modifications of Standard (MOS) requests for review of non standard compliance items as long as safety is not compromised . Making modification would be much less expensive and less time consuming for the airports that are able to do them. Some design standards to allow for safe use of the A380 include blast pad dimensions to be 250 x 400 feet ( Airbus a380 airfield, 2011). Many smaller airports will not be able to fit the larger airbus and the A380 will be limited to only the large, hub airports better able to accommodate them. Smaller airports may have to be used as feeder airports that will connect passengers to the large airports and the A380s. This could be a problem of increased congestion with the existing slot system if more connecting flights are needed and there are no more gates available or slot time (Ruehle, Goetsch, Koch, 2006). At this time intercontinental routes use the hub and spoke system. This method allows airlines to bundle an increased number of passengers on the flights. The draw back is that it also leads to a more complex feeder flight schedule. Those airports with the facilities and room to support the airbuses would then become hubs for those aircraft flights. To be profitable and fill enough seats, airports with the most potential passengers would need to be paired for flights. Any delay or cancellation would have a domino effect, costing more

The Round Table has different variations throughout history on how many knights were under King Arthurs rule and actually sat at the table. The benefit of a Round Table is that there is no established head of the table. Unlike other kingdoms in which there would be rectangular to distinguish the hierarchy.

Proper rehab can mean the difference between long term recovery and give up, so it is extremely important that patients understand what to look for when shopping for a treatment plan.

A quality repair center should be recognized in the state in which it operates. Be suspicious at centers that do not or who are not easy to provide current license and accreditation information. If they can not meet their state home accreditation criteria, it should not be considered. Always check to see who is driving the drug rehabilitation center.

The Personality Of Coriolanus although he was a fearless and effective leader in battle, he was completely impossible as a person and thus only earned the respect but not the love of the people of Rome Men of his ilk are not uncommon in the socio political landscape then and now and we may well be moved to wonder what formative childhood experiences shaped the personality of these difficult, although at times necessary leaders. On the surface, Shakespeare s words seem to provide us with a simple, direct answer at least for Coriolanus: the text directly informs us that Coriolanus s difficult personality is attributable to the way his mother, Volumnia, brought him up. And we hear this from Volumnia herself, as she proudly and stridently declare in her own words that... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Kahn, in her psychoanalytic exploration of the childhood origin of Coriolanus s character structure, writes of Volumnia: By thrusting him from dependency and thrusting onto him a warrior self of her own devising, Volumnia effectively murdered the babe in Coriolanus, the loving and vulnerable self within him (p. 172.).3 Adelman expresses a similar formulation in her essay: Coriolanus incorporates not only his mother s attitude toward food but also the transformations in mode implicit in her image of Hector. These transformations from feeding to warfare, from vulnerability to aggressive attack, from incorporation to spitting out are at the centre of Coriolanus s character and our responses to him; for the whole of his masculine identity depends on his transformation of his vulnerability into an instrument of attack (p.149). Garber concurs, arguing that [Coriolanus] is a boy in his uncritical submission to Volumnia; he is either her submissive son or a mechanical man .... (p. 46) And, of course, all of these formulations are completely consistent with modern developmental psychology, which holds that the child s earliest experiences with the mother are crucial for personality formation and that difficulties in this area bode ill for the child s future

There were several props used within the play which were significant for example, the toy guns which were used frequently, suggesting that there was a theme of violence and crime in Vernon God Little. This ties in with the beginning of the play, in where the character Jesus shot 17 students. Another important prop used was the black telephone used by Vernon and Taylor. The colours used in the set of Vernon God Little were neutral colours showing the statues and class of the whole community, which contrasted the colours used when Vernon went to Mexico. The colours were bright and vivid fitting with the set making it as realistic as it could be. A momentous moment in the play was when Vernon was about to die. There was a prop used which was representing the cross on where Jesus died. Vernon was strapped on like Jesus and was levitated upwards to the ceiling highly portraying the theme of religion within the play. Costume used in Vernon God Little was mainly symbolic to the audience. The main character Vernon, wore jeans and a plain bright top, which represented his age and his class. Vernon characterisation fitted to a troubled teenager. His movements were quite awkward and he tended to shrug his shoulder and mover his arms around. This could suggest to the audience how Vernon is vulnerable and is just a young child.

Yet public support for this move has always been marginal and in March 2015 Iceland s government requested that the country should no longer be regarded as a candidate country. This paper seeks to find out what the main reasons are behind the anti EU stance in the Icelandic population. Thanks to an extensive online survey carried out by the author, it could be confirmed that the protection of the Icelandic fishing and agriculture sectors worries the Icelanders most, followed by the perception that Iceland is too small to influence decision making in Brussels. In general, the population adopts a rational cost benefit analysis to conclude that their country is better off outside the EU. Sentimental issues, such as the lack of an identity connection with the European mainland or the protection of (what some see as) their whaling tradition, take less prominence in this debate. Tim Gemers 4 Introduction: Explaining Icelandic Euroscepticism Iceland has always had a particular relationship with the European Union (EU). Up until 2008, it was one of the few countries that have never tried to become a member of the EU. However, after the outbreak of the Icelandic banking crisis, the time seemed ripe for the Nordic country to apply.

Physicians and health professionals in our health care system should be more cultural competent. We live in a widely diverse country; there should be no reason why we all cannot have the same access to health care. Despite our race, culture, income or education level, we are all humans and we all require the same medical attention. We all look different physically but are the exact same internally. Though the color of our skin can vary from one another we all carry the same organs, we all have beating hearts and blood flowing through our veins. A change must be made within our society and our health care system in order for all to be treated equally. The first step to this change would be to acknowledge that discrimination within our health care system exits and that it is unfair and unacceptable for any individual to experience poor health access or outcomes because of who they are, what color skin they have or where they come from. Cultural barriers may exist indefinitely but should not be held accountable for ones health. The second step for change is educating our physicians and health professionals to be diverse and learn about

We are constantly facing new dilemmas that put us in difficult situations; and thinking of them in depth will make us question our loyalty towards a particular matter. Graphic Designers face those obligations relatively more than other people. The nature of their job is to create pieces of work, and these may be those that as an individual, they do not solely agree with but have an obligation to complete it in order to keep the client satisfied or keep their job and inevitably, get paid. Similarly, using a piece of work which does not belong to the creator but passing it off as their own and calling the originality of said work in to question can also call the ethics and morals of the user into question. Fair use and copyright infringement is an explosive and rising issue within the scope of Graphic Design, especially with the rapid evolution of the Internet. It has caused a lot of repercussions in the world of design, some which have benefitted and others not so much. The growth of this subject has helped in distinguishing the difference between what the main distinguishers are in fair use as opposed to copyright infringement. In an era where the Internet is the library and people have access to any type of image, artwork, logo, fonts or text they desire, it is often questioned how it can clearly be determined if in fact, a piece of work is being used fairly or is being infringed under the Copyright, Designs

It is the basis of your profit or loss. Estimates that are huge, produce no work, because we are underbid and hence would not gain those potential orders or sales. We may win underbid jobs, but they do not produce the efficiency profit from which we can successfully involve a business. Employers and engineers find it easier to justify purchase of equipment and software used on the floor rather than estimating software. Obtaining the correct quantity of sheets, bars, or castings is necessary. Whether we do it by using our trusty calculator, writing the numbers down, plugging them into the shop management system ...

DNA is found in the nucleus of a cell and mitochondria. DNA provides living organisms with genetic information. The information is stored as a code made up of four chemical bases: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T). The sequence of these bases determine the information available for building and maintaining an organism similar to the way in which letter of the alphabet appear in a certain order to form units words and sentences. DNAbases pair up with each other, to form units called base pairs. Most DNA molecules consist of two biopolymer strands coiled around each other to form a double...

Transcription is the process by DNA is copied to mRNA, which carries the information needed for protein synthesis. Transcription takes place in two steps, first, pre messenger is formed, with the involvement of RNA polymerase enzymes. The pre messenger then edited to produce the desired mRNA molecule. Transcription is similar to DNA replication. The unwinding of the double helix must occur before transcription to take place and is the RNA polymerase enzymes that catalyze this process. The major difference is that both strands are copied and only one strand is transcribed. Transcription ends when the RNA polymerase reaches a triplet of bases then the DNA molecules re coils to reform the double helix. The process in which mRNA directs protein synthesis with the help of tRNA is translation. When the ribosomes is assembled around a molecule of mRNA, the translation begins with the reading of the first triplet. Small tRNA molecules bring in the individual amino acids and attach them to the mRNA, and to each other, forming a

In Malaysia, the steel has been used especially for the construction of electric tower, industrial building (factory), roof truss, bridge and more. However, the usage of steel for residential is limited because their usage depends on the accompany with the other material. Steel framed structures are designed with the connections between the separate members treated as either non rigid or fully rigid joints. The frame consists of horizontal beams in both direction and vertical columns called stanchions, usually all standard rolled sections of various sizes, joined together by welding or by bolts with ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The erection of the steel is carried out by skilled labour. In situ cast concrete structures all work, except possibly the cutting and bending of reinforcement is carried out on the site, the erection of formwork and placing of reinforcement by skilled and unskilled labour and usually the making and placing concrete by semi skilled or unskilled labour. Much site space is needed for the storage and mixing of materials, although in some districts this problems can be overcome when the site is restricted in area by the use of truck mixed concrete . The type of formwork used, the nature and size of building will have an effect upon the actual method of work and the speed at which it progresses. 3.1.2 Cost and speed of erection Reinforced concrete is likely cheaper in cost but in situ, generally longer in construction than steel although construction can be rapid with a disciplined design approach, careful and detailed and planning of the site work, good site organization and properly trained operatives and good supervision. To some extent cost and speed of erection are dependent upon the availability of materials and labour. On expensive sites speed of erection to permit early occupation of the completed building is a most important consideration and is sometimes the decisive factor in the choice of the framing material.

Renal Regulation of Blood Osmolarity Abstract: The experiment was done to demonstrate the effect of ADH on the volume and concentration of urine in order to demonstrate the control of ADH over blood plasma osmolarity. Since non invasive methods were preferred the volume and concentration of urine was used in place of drawing blood. The results that we our anticipating are that ADH levels in the group of subjects that ingested the 6 gm. Of NaCl would increase over time in response to the increased osmolarity of the blood from all of the salt. Urine output would decrease and eventually the body would stabilize. Purpose: In this experiment, renal regulation of osmolarity will be demonstrated through the use of urinalysis. Materials and Methods: In this experiment, ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The purpose of executing this experiment was to essentially illustrate our body s compensatory mechanisms via hormone regulation to maintain homeostasis. Osmolarity of bodily fluids need to be in their appropriate normal ranges in order for the body as a whole to maintain normal or healthy functions. A disruption of homeostasis will eventually lead to disease whether acute or chronic if the compensatory mechanisms within our bodies are not working appropriately. Although the kidneys are the focus of the action, renal regulation of osmolarity goes well beyond the kidneys. The hormones involved in the process are ADH, aldosterone , and the few involved in the renin angiotensin system. Due to the fact that ADH was the target of our experiment, we will begin with the anatomy and physiology involved with ADH. The cell bodies of the supra optic nucleus of the hypothalamus are the site of synthesis of ADH, and the site of the osmoreceptors that detect changes in blood osmolarity. The posterior pituitary is the site of release for ADH. When the osmoreceptors detect a change in osmolarity the number and intensity of the action potentials fired will change. An increase will cause an increase in action potentials fired from the supra optic nucleus to the posterior pituitary via the infundibulum. Likewise, a decrease in osmolarity will decrease the action potentials fired. The synaptic vesicles of the posterior pituitary will then secrete the appropriate

Major Forces That Are Leading International Firms Essay There are five major forces that are leading international firms to the globalization of their operations which includes (1) political (2) technological (3) market (4) cost and (5) competition. Many firms initiate international operations to gain assess by combined markets through exporting product or producing within the area. Technological According to (Ball, 2011) today s technology has allowed an advance in computers, communication and an increase flow of ideas. Through the internet and networks small companies can compete globally. Markets Companies use foreign countries to establish a business to avoid having their competition take their business. With the majority of the population being in foreign countries, outsourcing helps to generate growth. Cost Management utilizes lower cost by moving production lines to foreign countries because the labor is cheaper, and can also lower other parts of a company value chain. There is a reduction in the cost of generating and transmitting information as well as a decline in transportation cost. Competition Competition is increasing because of growth in automobiles, computers, and electronics. Firms are also defending their home markets from foreign competitors by entering into foreign markets. There are a number of reasons why a manager may not be able to successfully apply the specific techniques and concepts learned in his/ her country in other areas of the world. Each country has its own values, cultures and ethical

Mexicans have embraced death as a part of life. The Mayan and Aztecs practiced human sacrifices which gave and example of acceptance of death. In Mexico when a loved one passed on to a better life the viewing traditional takes place at the family s home. A catholic priest comes to the family s home and leads a mass in honor of the recently departed. The coffin in placed on a table along with candles on the side. After the funeral the family members get together and pray for nine days to guide the deceased into haven and ask forgiveness for their sins.On the other hand Egyptians were buried in pyramids directly in the ground. Often bodies were

The first one would be by looking at it in a literal way, in which it will make it a very harsh, inhumane and cold text. On the other hand, it could be seen as a satire, sarcastic and ironic text in which Saukko expects to catch the reader s attention. Saukko exaggerates the sarcasm, and satire in her writing in order to make the readers realize and understand the main purpose of her essay, which is to warn readers about threats to the future of our planet. Scientific terms are used frequently through out the text, but are followed by explanations in a coherent way, hence it makes it clearer and more understandable to ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Saukko gives numerous examples and statistics on how the United States is polluting the world. Ironically, she mentions several strategic points that will help pollute the world, such as dumps, landfills, rivers, lagoons, lakes, and oceans. In addition, she suggests that polluting the air is essential in this process and the best way to do so is through combustion and evaporation. She sarcastically reminds us that we have to continuously pollute, otherwise, the wind and rain will cleanse the earth. By polluting the air, acid rain will be formed and affect also the animals on the lakes. She also argues ironically that contaminating rivers is a hard task because they act as a cleansing system for the earth and that no matter how hard we try to contaminate them, they will transport all the pollution towards the oceans. She reminds us that Oceans are very hard to contaminate because they have a large volume and a natural tendency to reduce contamination. Therefore, we should use the ocean as a dumpling place. Saukko has a unique way on phrasing words. For example, Saukko mentions that Because the lower atmosphere can cleanse itself fairly easily, we must explode nuclear tests bombs that shoot radioactive particles high into the upper atmosphere (Saukko, 247). Once again, the sarcasm and satire can be seen clearly to a point that it becomes humorous. The word choice she uses becomes comical in the way that she is suggesting methods on

Texas (539 U.S. 558, 2003) which was the United States Supreme Court case the criminal prohibition of the homosexual pederasty was invalidated in Texas. The same issue has been already addressed in 1989 in the case Bowers v. Hardwick, however, the constitutional protection of sexual privacy was not found at that time. Lawrence overruled Bowers and held that sexual conduct was the right protected by the due process under the Fourteenth Amendment. The effects of the ruling were quite widespread and led to invalidation of the similar laws throughout the United States that tried to criminalize the homosexual activity of adults which were acting in privacy. The case attracted much of the public... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Therefore, the above law prohibites any form of sexual intercourse between individuals of the same sex. On November 20th, both men pleaded no contest to the charges and asked for dismissal of charges based on the Fourteenth Amendment equal protection. They claimed that the law of Texas was unconstitutional because of the prohibition of sexual activity between individuals of the same sex but not between individuals of the different sex. In addition, they stated that their right for privacy was violated when police officers entered the house. Lawrence and Gardner to support their claim mentioned that the right for privacy for couples of the different sex had been recognized to include not only sexual activity, but also the usage of contraception. The above request was rejected by the Criminal Court and both men were fined $125 each plus $141, 25 in the court costs. Texas District Court of Appeals Almost two months later after the arrest, the arguments were presented to the three judge panel of the Texas District Court of Appeals. The discussion was on both issues raised: the equal protection and right to privacy. John Anderson and Chief Justice Paul Murphy ruled in the favour of appellants. They found that they law was in violation of the Equal Rights Amendment to the Texas Constitutions which prohibited any discrimination based on
