1. What is on your mind And what elseAs my wife and I have k.docxambersalomon88660
1. What is on your mind? And what else?
As my wife and I have kind of put on hold things till after the summer, I feel like it a really good choice. We did not put coaching on hold, nor has she stopped looking for a job, but rather she is looking for a GS job that could take months to get due to the background checks and application process. We have come to the realization that we will have to commute as we were trying to avoid that, but reality has it that if we want the jobs, we want then we are going to have to.
2. What is the real challenge for you now that we have gone through this process?
It was a real challenge to understand her side, and just when I thought I had it I would be back at square one. For instance, I knew she wanted a job from seven to three in the afternoon and I know my daughter has therapy but for some reason in my brain I was just not thinking about that, but I was thinking about money, job, and her working. Our last conversation helped me to hear this instead of just listening to her.
3. What is the desired goal? (You can have them do an exercise for you where they draw {pictures} their goal and where they see themselves)
That is a very interesting concept, I asked my wife about this and she said that it would be a picture of her behind a desk, in work clothes, and having some responsibility. I asked about a list she would make also. Other then her main goal of working her big concerns are her working and able to support our family at least for a little bit when I retire so that I do not have to rush into the work force, and I can take some time.
4. What else can I do to support you? Who else can help? Do they know?
I can honestly only be there for her right now. I offered to go to a hiring event with her, she is nervous about going and she asked if I could come and support her. I am helping her get a resume together as well as work on her cover letter to hand out at this event. I think just being there for her and helping her with the transition is what is going to help her most. She is independent and can mange by herself but does better support. She leans on her friends for support, she also reaches out to a Facebook group that helps spouses find jobs as well as post job events, she also has made appointments with the people that help write resumes on post to get incite and have professional help with it.
5. If you say yes to this, dedicate your time to this, what are you saying no to? This is key, make a commitment.
She has my full support; I offer any help that I can as well as any leads that I can with the help of people that I have met in my line of work. We are both fully committed, and I think that is what is making this process go further beucase we have the same goals as well as wants for the outcome we are going for.
6. What has been most useful to you?
Mapping out what she wants the outcome to be. It had changed and she is still back and forth between working GS or USAA but in the end .
This document is a student's journal entry for their social psychology course. It summarizes several instances where the student exhibited confirmation bias. In the first example, the student did not believe their parents when they said a new nearby restaurant was not as good as the original. Later, when a friend also said the new restaurant was bad, the student still did not believe it until they went and tried the food themselves, confirming what others had said. The student learned that confirmation bias can cause people to ignore information that contradicts their existing beliefs.

Consider the following scenario:
Terrence is considering next steps for a client, Angela, who has come for therapy at the family counseling center where he works. When Angela scheduled her appointment on the telephone, she had described her concerns with marital difficulties, insomnia, and depression. During her first session, however, Terrence noticed that Angela had a very nervous demeanor, picked at her skin constantly, and had a rasping cough. When Terrence asked Angela about her employment, she admitted that she had lost her job and that her husband was angry about it. She said she was afraid her husband was on the brink of becoming abusive.
Terrence is not sure what to do first. He suspects Angela might have a substance addiction, but clearly she has several interlocking problems, and many are urgent. Should Terrence administer a screening for addiction or a more general clinical assessment? If he does decide to administer an addictions assessment, which of the many that are available should he choose and why?

1. (a)In your handout for protein kinase A, there is a table of known substrate
sequences, in other words sequences of peptides phosphorylated by PKA. Please do your
best to align the substrate sequences provided, and from the alignment, predict what a good
consensus substrate for PKA will be. To present your alignment, please use an equal width
font for the protein sequences (Courier or Courier New work well). Highlight the P(0)
residue, P(-1) etc.
(b)The regulatory subunit (R) of protein kinase A has a short sequence
(RRRRGAISA that is critical for inhibiting the activity of the kinase catalytic subunit. This
short sequence of the R-subunit actually sits in the active site cleft of PKA in the
crystallographically-determined structure of the inhibited RC complex. Can you deduce
what the function of this sequence is? Using the answer to part (a) as a guide, please align
the inhibitory sequence with the known substrate sequences to deduce how this sequence
likely functions to inhibit PKA. Furthermore, using your class notes, can you make a guess
at which residues on PKA might interact with specific residues from the R-inhibitory
peptide?
2. For a regularly spaced 1-Dimensional array of atoms (spacing =13 Å) calculate the
total number of diffraction maxima and their scattering angles (for perfect in phase
scattering from the atoms in the 1-D array) between scattering angles of zero and ninety
degrees Use a wavelength of d=1.25 Å. Please include a drawing to explain the diffraction
condition and show your calculations.
3. Using site specific mutagenesis to change residues in the substrate binding cleft of
PKA (not residues involved in catalytic roles), how would you alter PKA’s substrate
specificity at P-3, and P-2 to Glu and P+1 to Asn? By this, I mean how would you
specifically make mutations in the PKA enzyme amino acid sequence (not the substrate
sequence) that would select for binding and phosphorylation of a peptide sequence that
would clearly differ from the known substrate sequence preferred by PKA as outlined
above. Be sure to clearly highlight exactly what residues in the PKA sequence you would
have to change (and to what amino acid) to achieve this.
4. The following lines of data describe the atomic coordinates for an arginine residue in
a protein molecule in PDB (protein data bank) format. Since proteins are three-dimensional
objects, the position of each atom is specified in space by its X, Y and Z coordinates. On each
line of a PDB formatted file, the atom number is given, the atom type is next (e.g. N-
backbone nitrogen, backbone carbonyl oxygen etc), the residue name (here ARG 431 in chain
D; in this instance the protein crystal contains four independent copies of the polypeptide
chain, labelled A through D), then the X-coordinate for that atom, the Y-coordinate for that
atom and the Z-coo.

BIO34: Human Heredity and Evolution EXTRA CREDIT Paper Prompt
Roughly 10-years have passed since The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks was published. With regard to legal rights and property claims, there has been some progress towards laws and guidelines regarding using patients’ tissues for research and commercial endeavors. However, there are still many areas of ambiguity in the laws and regulations towards using patients’ cells and/or tissues.
Find a recent example in the news that relates to issues of informed consent, property rights, and patients’ rights that were discussed in The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks. A “recent” example can include ANY stories and/or events that have occurred after the publishing of The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks in 2009, after which the public became more aware of the issues presented in the book.
Please write a 3-page (double-spaced) paper in which you:
1. Summarize the selected example, providing the Appropriate Citation of the news article(s) in which you learned about the event and/or case being reported on.
2. Provide an analysis in which you compare-and-contrast how the ethical problems were addressed in a manner differently OR similarly than the case with HeLa cells.
3. Provide a concluding argument about whether you think adequate improvements are in the progress of being made towards the issues of consent and/or property rights regarding the use of patient’s tissues, or if there are still notable deficiencies in how we deal with these matters.
You must cite AT LEAST one article that brings up the “recent” example, so you can compare it to The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks. The source can be primary or secondary, but must be from a legitimate source (i.e., not just Wikipedia, you need the actual link). If you use additional articles or sources to support your paper, also cite them as needed at the end of the paper.
PLEASE NOTE: citations do NOT count to the 3-page limit (i.e., do not give me a 2-page reference list attached to a 1-page paper).

Human Exponential Population Growth
Prior to 1950, the death rate was high, which kept the numbers of humans from increasing rapidly. In the 19th Century, the agricultural revolution increased food production. The industrial revolution improved methods of transporting food and other good. In the 20th Century, advances in medicine, sanitation and
nutrition
have decreased the death rates further. These factors combined to produce the rapid growth of the human population in the 20th century. Explain 4 factors (
inventions
or public health measures) that decrease the death rates of infants and small children that lead to our exponential population growth.

This document discusses the career of a substance abuse and behavioral disorder counselor. It notes that the counselor's job involves meeting with clients individually and in group sessions to provide support, monitor their behavior, and help them through potential relapses or violent incidents. Counselors typically work in offices, treatment programs, hospitals, or private practice. The training required varies by state but generally involves a master's degree and clinical experience. The field is expected to grow faster than average as more people seek treatment. While earnings vary, the median is between $34,000 to $47,290 annually. The document examines the career as a potential fit based on a desire to help people and experience with addiction in the family.
1. What is on your mind And what elseAs my wife and I have k.docxambersalomon88660
1. What is on your mind? And what else?
As my wife and I have kind of put on hold things till after the summer, I feel like it a really good choice. We did not put coaching on hold, nor has she stopped looking for a job, but rather she is looking for a GS job that could take months to get due to the background checks and application process. We have come to the realization that we will have to commute as we were trying to avoid that, but reality has it that if we want the jobs, we want then we are going to have to.
2. What is the real challenge for you now that we have gone through this process?
It was a real challenge to understand her side, and just when I thought I had it I would be back at square one. For instance, I knew she wanted a job from seven to three in the afternoon and I know my daughter has therapy but for some reason in my brain I was just not thinking about that, but I was thinking about money, job, and her working. Our last conversation helped me to hear this instead of just listening to her.
3. What is the desired goal? (You can have them do an exercise for you where they draw {pictures} their goal and where they see themselves)
That is a very interesting concept, I asked my wife about this and she said that it would be a picture of her behind a desk, in work clothes, and having some responsibility. I asked about a list she would make also. Other then her main goal of working her big concerns are her working and able to support our family at least for a little bit when I retire so that I do not have to rush into the work force, and I can take some time.
4. What else can I do to support you? Who else can help? Do they know?
I can honestly only be there for her right now. I offered to go to a hiring event with her, she is nervous about going and she asked if I could come and support her. I am helping her get a resume together as well as work on her cover letter to hand out at this event. I think just being there for her and helping her with the transition is what is going to help her most. She is independent and can mange by herself but does better support. She leans on her friends for support, she also reaches out to a Facebook group that helps spouses find jobs as well as post job events, she also has made appointments with the people that help write resumes on post to get incite and have professional help with it.
5. If you say yes to this, dedicate your time to this, what are you saying no to? This is key, make a commitment.
She has my full support; I offer any help that I can as well as any leads that I can with the help of people that I have met in my line of work. We are both fully committed, and I think that is what is making this process go further beucase we have the same goals as well as wants for the outcome we are going for.
6. What has been most useful to you?
Mapping out what she wants the outcome to be. It had changed and she is still back and forth between working GS or USAA but in the end .
This document is a student's journal entry for their social psychology course. It summarizes several instances where the student exhibited confirmation bias. In the first example, the student did not believe their parents when they said a new nearby restaurant was not as good as the original. Later, when a friend also said the new restaurant was bad, the student still did not believe it until they went and tried the food themselves, confirming what others had said. The student learned that confirmation bias can cause people to ignore information that contradicts their existing beliefs.

Consider the following scenario:
Terrence is considering next steps for a client, Angela, who has come for therapy at the family counseling center where he works. When Angela scheduled her appointment on the telephone, she had described her concerns with marital difficulties, insomnia, and depression. During her first session, however, Terrence noticed that Angela had a very nervous demeanor, picked at her skin constantly, and had a rasping cough. When Terrence asked Angela about her employment, she admitted that she had lost her job and that her husband was angry about it. She said she was afraid her husband was on the brink of becoming abusive.
Terrence is not sure what to do first. He suspects Angela might have a substance addiction, but clearly she has several interlocking problems, and many are urgent. Should Terrence administer a screening for addiction or a more general clinical assessment? If he does decide to administer an addictions assessment, which of the many that are available should he choose and why?

1. (a)In your handout for protein kinase A, there is a table of known substrate
sequences, in other words sequences of peptides phosphorylated by PKA. Please do your
best to align the substrate sequences provided, and from the alignment, predict what a good
consensus substrate for PKA will be. To present your alignment, please use an equal width
font for the protein sequences (Courier or Courier New work well). Highlight the P(0)
residue, P(-1) etc.
(b)The regulatory subunit (R) of protein kinase A has a short sequence
(RRRRGAISA that is critical for inhibiting the activity of the kinase catalytic subunit. This
short sequence of the R-subunit actually sits in the active site cleft of PKA in the
crystallographically-determined structure of the inhibited RC complex. Can you deduce
what the function of this sequence is? Using the answer to part (a) as a guide, please align
the inhibitory sequence with the known substrate sequences to deduce how this sequence
likely functions to inhibit PKA. Furthermore, using your class notes, can you make a guess
at which residues on PKA might interact with specific residues from the R-inhibitory
peptide?
2. For a regularly spaced 1-Dimensional array of atoms (spacing =13 Å) calculate the
total number of diffraction maxima and their scattering angles (for perfect in phase
scattering from the atoms in the 1-D array) between scattering angles of zero and ninety
degrees Use a wavelength of d=1.25 Å. Please include a drawing to explain the diffraction
condition and show your calculations.
3. Using site specific mutagenesis to change residues in the substrate binding cleft of
PKA (not residues involved in catalytic roles), how would you alter PKA’s substrate
specificity at P-3, and P-2 to Glu and P+1 to Asn? By this, I mean how would you
specifically make mutations in the PKA enzyme amino acid sequence (not the substrate
sequence) that would select for binding and phosphorylation of a peptide sequence that
would clearly differ from the known substrate sequence preferred by PKA as outlined
above. Be sure to clearly highlight exactly what residues in the PKA sequence you would
have to change (and to what amino acid) to achieve this.
4. The following lines of data describe the atomic coordinates for an arginine residue in
a protein molecule in PDB (protein data bank) format. Since proteins are three-dimensional
objects, the position of each atom is specified in space by its X, Y and Z coordinates. On each
line of a PDB formatted file, the atom number is given, the atom type is next (e.g. N-
backbone nitrogen, backbone carbonyl oxygen etc), the residue name (here ARG 431 in chain
D; in this instance the protein crystal contains four independent copies of the polypeptide
chain, labelled A through D), then the X-coordinate for that atom, the Y-coordinate for that
atom and the Z-coo.

Roughly 10-years have passed since The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks was published. With regard to legal rights and property claims, there has been some progress towards laws and guidelines regarding using patients’ tissues for research and commercial endeavors. However, there are still many areas of ambiguity in the laws and regulations towards using patients’ cells and/or tissues.
Find a recent example in the news that relates to issues of informed consent, property rights, and patients’ rights that were discussed in The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks. A “recent” example can include ANY stories and/or events that have occurred after the publishing of The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks in 2009, after which the public became more aware of the issues presented in the book.
Please write a 3-page (double-spaced) paper in which you:
1. Summarize the selected example, providing the Appropriate Citation of the news article(s) in which you learned about the event and/or case being reported on.
2. Provide an analysis in which you compare-and-contrast how the ethical problems were addressed in a manner differently OR similarly than the case with HeLa cells.
3. Provide a concluding argument about whether you think adequate improvements are in the progress of being made towards the issues of consent and/or property rights regarding the use of patient’s tissues, or if there are still notable deficiencies in how we deal with these matters.
You must cite AT LEAST one article that brings up the “recent” example, so you can compare it to The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks. The source can be primary or secondary, but must be from a legitimate source (i.e., not just Wikipedia, you need the actual link). If you use additional articles or sources to support your paper, also cite them as needed at the end of the paper.
PLEASE NOTE: citations do NOT count to the 3-page limit (i.e., do not give me a 2-page reference list attached to a 1-page paper).

The allelopathic effects of the Pinus Rigada on Raphanus Sativus
A. Student
October 22, 2015
Georgia Military College
Introduction
In a garden, Raphanus sativus were planted near other vegetables that were considered “companion plants”, but the R. sativus plantwas not exhibiting any real growth. Overhead Eastern pitch pine trees (Pinus Rigida) were growing and knowing that pine trees typically exhibit allelopathic tendencies, determining whether P. rigida was to blame or whether there was another contributing factor was important in getting to the root of the problem. To discover if the P. rigida were possibly inhibiting the growth, a study was done to determine if there was any connection between the stunted growth of the R. sativusand the P.rigida. The primary goal of this study was to gather and analyze data on the effects of the P. rigida on the growth of R. sativus. This was done to determine whether P. rigida exhibited allelopathic traits towards the seeds of R. sativus.
The R. sativus is a cultigen, meaning it has been altered by humans and is the result of artificial selection. They belong to the Brassicaceae family, which includes turnips (Brassica rapa), cabbage and relatives (Brassica oleracea) and horseradish (Armoracia rusticana). The name Raphanus refers to the radishes ability to rapidly germinate and is derived from the greek language: ra, meaning quickly and phainomai, meaning to appear. (Plants & Fungi)
Allelopathy is the secretion of chemical substances by plants that inhibit the growth of a competing species. (Allelopathy) A study was done on Pinus halepinsus and the possible allelopathic effects of its needles. In growth chambers, plastic pots consisting of 6(g), 8(g), and 12(g) of pine needle tissue and screened perlite were used to perform this study. Three different physiological stages of pine needles were collected from the P. halepinsus; fresh, senesced, and decaying. The pots containing the pine needle tissue were then seeded with tall fescue, Bermuda grass, or oat at 20, 20, and 3 seeds per pot. The needles tissue of the P. halepinsus in the perlite substrate reduced growth and development of the tall fescue and Bermuda grass. This suggests that toxic chemicals were excreted through the pine needle tissue. Growth inhibition was dependent on the type of pine and the amount incorporated into the pot. From the results, it was concluded that inhibitory compounds were within the pine needle tissue and were more apparent in fresh needles than senesced and decaying needles. (Nektarios, 2005)
The Eastern P. rigidia is from the same family of trees as P. halepinsus called Pinaceae. Being from the same family, it is possible that they exhibit the same allelopathic traits. The inhibited growth of the R. sativus may be caused from possible allelopathic effects of the pine needles from the P. rigidia. If radish (R. sativus) seeds are exposed to extracts from the pitch pine tree (P. rigidi.

Bill of Rights
When the Constitution was completed in the summer of 1787, approval by representatives from nine of the thirteen states was needed for it to become the nation’s law. The issue of individual rights was managed—though this, too, created conflict among the Framers—with the addition of the Bill of Rights. Change was written into the supreme law of the land; since then, legal institutionalization of changes has occurred. Since the Constitution’s adoption, change has taken place through the amendment process identified in the Constitution. Change has also occurred under the direction of the branches of government established in the Constitution: the executive, the legislature, and the judiciary.

The Difference between Data and Information
Introduction
Most of the individuals have the belief that the term information and data are interchangeable and have the same meaning. Nevertheless, there exists a unique difference between the two terms. Data can refer to any character, word, text, or number and if it is not placed into context, doesn't mean anything or means very little to humans. Information may be in its context a data which is formatted in such a way allowing it to be used by people in certain vital situations. Understanding the differences between data and information is essential because it helps to eradicate the apparent confusion brought about by the application of the two terms in organizations and other relevant professions.
Data
Data refers to the grouping of details and facts such as figures, texts, symbols, observations, or merely descriptions of certain things, entities or events collected with the aim of creating inferences. It represents the raw facts which require processing to obtain the information which needed for action to be taken upon a given situation (Silverman, 2018). It is mostly known to entail such things as characters and statements, as well as numbers before undergoing refining by the individual involved in its extraction who in this case is known as the researcher.
The word data is derived from the Latin word called datum which means something given. Data is therefore offered and provided by individuals involved in the survey process. Its concept is thus linked to the scientific research which included a collection of data and analysis before interpreting it to come up with the exact information regarding a given situation (Silverman, 2018). It is often gathered by several organizations, institutions, government departments as well as non-governmental agencies and bodies for various distinct reasons. Data exists in two major forms namely primary and secondary data.
Primary data is that data which is gathered by researchers from .

Term Paper Proposal
After carefully examining the syllabus and textbook the country of my choice in which I
would enjoy conducting thorough research on is the nation of Turkey. The recent tensions flaring
up in Syria, President Donald Trump is withdrawing U.S troops after he threatens to “devastate”
Turkey’s economy if they attack Kurdish forces; leaving Turkey to worried the future of their
national security. In such a country where religion and political turmoil merge it is close to
impossible to predict the future of their actions. These events have sparked my interest in
learning more about the political, economic, and social relations in Turkey.
Istanbul is the largest city in Turkey which was once ruled by both Christian and Muslim
empires. After World War 1, the Ottoman Empire sits defeated which led to the Turkish War of
Independence in 1919 — leading to the overthrow and downfall of Sultan Mehmet VI Vahdettin.
Next, the Republic of Turkey is founded by Kemal Ataturk, a national hero, later named as the
first President of Turkey. On October 29, 1923, a new Turkish constitution replaced the
constitution of the Ottoman Empire, forever marking the independence of the nation.
In addition, using library databases from the State College of Florida will allow me to
find books, magazines, and academic articles regarding the political sanctions enforced in
Turkey. One of the things I would hope to learn during research assignment is not only how
politics is done in Turkey but its relationships in regards to other countries. Finally, achieving
approval for this paper will allow me to learn more about the political structure in Turkey.

BIG DATA
Prepared By
Muhammad Abrar Uddin
Introduction
· Big Data may well be the Next Big Thing in the IT world.
· Big data burst upon the scene in the first decade of the 21st century.
· The first organizations to embrace it were online and startup firms. Firms like Google, eBay, LinkedIn, and Facebook were built around big data from the beginning.
· Like many new information technologies, big data can bring about dramatic cost reductions, substantial improvements in the time required to perform a computing task, or new product and service offerings.
What is BIG DATA?
· ‘Big Data’ is similar to ‘small data’, but bigger in
size
· but having data bigger it requires different approaches:
– Techniques, tools and architecture
· an aim to solve new problems or old problems in a better way
· Big Data generates value from the storage and processing of very large quantities of digital information that cannot be analyzed with traditional computing techniques.
What is BIG DATA
· Walmart handles more than 1 million customer transactions every hour.
· Facebook handles 40 billion photos from its user base.
· Decoding the human genome originally took 10years to process; now it can be achieved in one week.

Abstract: In this paper we present a SOA (Service Oriented Architecture)-based platform, enabling the retrieval and
analysis of big datasets stemming from social networking (SN) sites and Internet of Things (IoT) devices,
collected by smart city applications and socially-aware data aggregation services. A large set of city
applications in the areas of Participating Urbanism, Augmented Reality and Sound-Mapping throughout
participating cities is being applied, resulting into produced sets of millions of user-generated events and
online SN reports fed into the RADICAL platform. Moreover, we study the application of data analytics such
as sentiment analysis to the combined IoT and SN data saved into an SQL database, further investigating
algorithmic and configurations to minimize delays in dataset processing and results retrieval.
1 INTRODUCTION
Modern cities are increasingly turning towards
ICT technology for confronting pressures associated
with demographic changes, urbanization, climate
change (Romero Lankao, 2008) and globalization.
Therefore, most cities have undertaken significant
investments during the last decade in ICT
infrastructure including computers, broadband
connectivity and recently sensing infrastructures.
These infrastructures have empowered a number of
innovative services in areas such as participatory
sensing, urban logistics and ambient assisted living.
Such services have been extensively deployed in
several cities, thereby demonstrating the potential
benefits of ICT infrastructures for businesses and the
citizens themselves. During the last few years we
have also witnessed an explosion of sensor
deployments and social networking services, along
with the emergence of social networking (Conti et al.,
2011) and internet‐of‐things technologies (Perera et
al., 2013; Sundmaeker et al., 2010) Social and sensor
networks can be combined in order to offer a variety
of added‐value services for smart cities, as has
already been demonstrated by various early internet‐
of‐things applications (such as WikiCity(Calabrese et
al., 2007), CitySense(Murty et al., 2007),
GoogleLatitude(Page and Kobsa, 2010)), as.
Big Data Risks and Rewards (good length and at least 3-4 references .docxtangyechloe
Big Data Risks and Rewards (good length and at least 3-4 references everything in APA 7 format)
When you wake in the morning, you may reach for your cell phone to reply to a few text or email messages that you missed overnight. On your drive to work, you may stop to refuel your car. Upon your arrival, you might swipe a key card at the door to gain entrance to the facility. And before finally reaching your workstation, you may stop by the cafeteria to purchase a coffee.
From the moment you wake, you are in fact a data-generation machine. Each use of your phone, every transaction you make using a debit or credit card, even your entrance to your place of work, creates data. It begs the question: How much data do you generate each day? Many studies have been conducted on this, and the numbers are staggering: Estimates suggest that nearly 1 million bytes of data are generated every second for every person on earth.
As the volume of data increases, information professionals have looked for ways to use big data—large, complex sets of data that require specialized approaches to use effectively. Big data has the potential for significant rewards—and significant risks—to healthcare. In this Discussion, you will consider these risks and rewards.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
A workshop hosted by the South African Journal of Science aimed at postgraduate students and early career researchers with little or no experience in writing and publishing journal articles.

2. Cheyenne Scenario
Hi, my name’s Cheyenne and I’m a 32-year-old woman. I teach
middle school science.
I’ll just tell you what you already know. I was arrested for
drunk driving last weekend for
the second time this year, well… ever, really.
For me to get my license back, I had to come to this
appointment today. Then, I have to
complete whatever treatment you suggest. Can you believe it?
The judge took my
license for a whole year this time, but I think that if I do well,
he might reconsider.
But, listen, I don’t have a drinking problem…not really. I know
that it’s a problem when I
keep getting caught, but I remember from my DUI intervention
class that women have
more sensitive systems. I think that’s all it is with me. I only
had a few drinks at the bar
before driving. I’m sure I was there a long time, at least several
hours, so I thought I was
okay to drive.
I hope this isn’t going to be a problem for me and my job. I
teach science and I’ve been
at the same school since I started teaching 10 years ago. I need
my job because I’m a
3. single mom and I’m raising two children. They spend half the
week with me and half
with their father. I never drink…well only a little…when they
are home though. Their
father doesn’t pay child support, so I’m always stressed about
money. So, I have to be
careful about not losing my job, you know?
And now, I should be really careful because I took five sick
days in the last 3 weeks. I
just wasn’t feeling good enough to face my students. They’re
driving me crazy — I’ve
never had such an undisciplined group of students. It seems like
all my students this
year are disrespectful, rude, and careless in their work. They
don’t even bother to pay
attention during lab assignments and that is the best part of
taking science classes. I
asked my principal for help. BIG MISTAKE. He told me to “get
it together” and so, I’m
avoiding him now.
In fact, it is their fault that I am in this mess! At the beginning
of this year, a bunch of us
decided to go out on Fridays after work. We needed to blow off
some steam before
ending the week. Most of them stay for a drink and then go
home to their families.
However, a few of us stay later and have a few more drinks. I
try to get home when my
children get home; I have them on Friday nights every other
week. On the weeks when
they are with their father, I just stay out till everyone else heads
home. Probably, I drink
4. five drinks during that time. It’s not as bad as it sounds because
I am there for about 3
hours.
After a few weeks of doing this, I started buying wine and
vodka to keep at home. It was
getting expensive paying for those drinks on Friday. I still go
out with my friends, but I
only buy one drink and then order soda water. Occasionally, I
just add vodka that I bring

from home and boy, does it save money! I admit that I never
bought alcohol to keep at
home before.
I feel like such an adult. When I get home from work, I have a
drink or two to relax. I like
it — I feel grown up and it helps settle my mind before I have
to grade student work. I
forget how inadequate I feel at work after a few drinks. Plus, I
think it helps my students
get better grades because I don’t care as much!
If I had to guess and am truly honest with myself, I probably
drink three to four drinks a
5. night. It’s not much since I drink it over a few hours and never
feel real drunk. In fact,
that was why I got arrested. I didn’t feel drunk at all and that
was after four margaritas!
Maybe I drink a lot because my parents did. In fact, my mother
was a real alcoholic.
That’s how I know that I’m not. She was never able to keep a
job; in fact, she was
barely sober each day when my brothers and I got home from
school. I was so angry
with her, you know. There were so many school events that she
missed.
On the weekends, my father used to drink with her. They had
parties at the house that
lasted all weekend long. It was awful! I couldn’t get my
homework done and they
smoked weed. Ewwww! That smelled awful and just made them
all even more wasted.
I’m nothing like them — I just like to have a drink or two to
forget the awfulness in my
life.
I don’t know what to expect since I haven’t been in treatment
before — well, just DUI
intervention. Am I going to have be with….drug users? I’ve
never taken any drugs at all,
not even in college. I really don’t need to be with people who
are going to jail or who
use, you know, the hard drugs.
I mean, I guess that I need some help. I’m smart enough to
know that being arrested for
drunk driving twice in a year means I must have some problems.
I think that if you can
6. just teach me to maybe reduce my drinking and not drive, I’ll be
fine. Yeah, I’ll be good
then. Being arrested is no fun, I promise you that. I had never
been arrested before this
year.
Okay, so I’ll do whatever you tell me so that I can end this
nightmare. Who knows,
maybe I’ll figure out a way to stop fighting with my kids and
their father. They keep
telling me that I’m a horrible mother because of the arrests.
They’re not even willing to
listen to me anymore. At least, I get to see the kids still. The
judge warned that if they
had been younger, I would’ve lost custody. Since they both
drive, I guess it’s different. I
just want to end this nightmare!

Assignment Template | Unit 3
TEMPLATE SECTION EXPLANATIONS
Below are explanations of each of the sections on the ASI-Lite
template that you will
complete. Remember this information when you write your
short summaries under each
7. section of the template. The template follows the explanations
below.
General Information
You will find this type of section on every assessment form.
The information in this
section is important to help you create a profile of the client, to
get contact information,
and to understand “who” you client is through demographic
information. Complete this
section using information from the client interview or if the
data is missing, make it up.
You will find that the questions in this section are
straightforward to answer.
Employment/Support Status
The information that you collect in this area helps with
determining the severity of the
addiction disorder. Clients who have moderate to severe
disorders will report significant
issues in this section. It is important to know if your client has a
driver’s license or
reliable transportation because without it, he/she will find it
difficult to come to
appointments. If information is not included in the audio
interview, you may make it up.
The information in this section will be used with information in
other sections to
determine the severity rating and placement recommendation of
the substance use
disorder. For example, a client who cannot keep a job and
spends most of her day
getting, using, and recovering from drug use would have a
severe diagnosis (compared
to mild or moderate).
8. Alcohol/Drugs
The information collected in this section is critical to making a
substance use specific
diagnosis. You will note the types of drugs used, frequency,
amount, combinations, and
anything else related to drug/alcohol use history.
Legal Status
This information is important to know for practical purposes. It
helps to identify level of
use if the client reports that it is her “fifth DUI” conviction or
first arrest. You will also
learn if the client is court-mandated (this means your agency
needs to bill differently). Of
course, it also helps you to understand the level of involvement
that the client has with
the judicial system.
Family/Social Relationships
This information in this section helps to identify the client’s
role in the family. If the client
lives alone, social relationships will be important to explore as
a form of primary support.
Often, family members or close friends will be concerned about
the client. The client
PS375 | Psychology of Addiction
2
might show frustration with others thinking that he/she has a
9. problem. It is also
important to know if the quality of those relationships.
Psychiatric Status
While your agency will likely not enroll clients, who have
severe mental health disorders,
it is important to assess the client’s current status. Clients in
crisis often suffer from
mental health symptoms and those require treatment. This
section is already completed
for you on your template, but consider the information when
making a diagnosis and
placement recommendation.

TEMPLATE INSTRUCTIONS
Remember: This is an interview, not a test
If a response is already provided, use it in your overall analysis.
If the client did not give
a response for a question, you can make it up. Use that
information in your analysis too.
Interviewer Instructions
1. Leave no blanks
2. Make plenty of comments (if another person reads this ASI,
he or she should
10. have a relatively complete picture of the client's perceptions of
his/her problems).
3. When writing comments in the summary area at the end of
each section, please
write the question number.
