Ethics In Industrial Hygiene And Safety AIHCE, ROUND TABLE 246
This document discusses ethics in industrial hygiene and safety. It outlines several case studies where ethical issues arose, such as being asked to not fully perform safety duties or samples being tampered with. It emphasizes that life and safety decisions in this field require high ethics. While some workplaces prioritize profits over accurate exposure data and controls, upholding ethics benefits workers, families, and society. The document also provides strategies that a company used to promote ethics, such as ethics training, codes of conduct, and team building activities.
Making Sustainable Choices
This document summarizes a report on decision-making for sustainability. The report conducted a systematic review of over 200 academic articles and reports from the past 60 years to understand how individuals make decisions and how to support better decision-making that incorporates sustainability concerns. The review found that people do not always make rational decisions that maximize objectives. It identified common barriers and biases that can undermine sustainable decision-making. It also described specific decision-support techniques that have helped decision-makers incorporate sustainability in different contexts to achieve better outcomes. The report aims to provide insights to help individuals, organizations and governments improve their decision-making processes.
e-Assessment Workshop May 2018
In May 2018 I ran an e-Assessment workshop for members of the Griffith University Assessment Committee.
Topics included:
- What do we already understand about digital assessment
- What are our current pain-points
- We will identify where these sit on our assessment lifecycle
- Talk through some of the emerging tools and techniques, such as:
- Contract cheating and some ways to address this
- Digital exams and proctoring some tools now available
- Conditional assessments and Marking tools
- Looking at what’s possible in Office 365 + BB
- Use of voice in assessment
Help Your New Workers Stay Safe
Young and new workers are at higher risk of injury than older, more experienced workers. There are several reasons for this, including still developing physically and cognitively for young workers, and all workers having much higher injury rates in their first month on the job regardless of age. Effective training can help reduce these risks. Training should be provided immediately for new workers and involve elements of engagement like hands-on learning. It should also be tailored based on whether the learner is young, older, or new to the workplace or job. Mentoring and follow up after training are also important.
Testing Water and Ethics
This document discusses ethical issues engineers may face and provides guidance on addressing them. It outlines engineers' key ethical obligations like being truthful, protecting public health and safety, and acting loyally for employers. It also notes potential conflicts between ethical and personal/organizational goals. The document then describes characteristics of a profession and the purpose of codes of ethics. It introduces the IPP method for systematically identifying facts, stakeholders, standards, and more to prepare and plan solutions when facing ethical problems in engineering.
Ethical Decision Making
This document provides an overview of ethical decision making. It discusses decision making as the process of selecting an action from alternatives. Effective decision making involves clients, respecting their autonomy, and ensuring they have enough information to make informed choices. Decisions can be personal, clinical, or organizational. The document then outlines the steps in ethical decision making: 1) identifying the problem, 2) criteria, 3) weighting criteria, 4) developing alternatives, 5) analyzing alternatives, 6) selecting an alternative, 7) implementing it, and 8) evaluating the decision. Barriers like being hasty, narrow, scattered or fuzzy can impede good decision making. Overall, the document provides a framework for making ethical decisions through properly defining and addressing
Best Practices in Patent Litigation Survey
The document summarizes the results of surveys given to in-house counsel and outside counsel regarding patent litigation. It finds that:
1. Patent assertion entities (PAEs) have significantly impacted companies through lawsuits targeting their customers. Most respondents indicated their customers received PAE demands based on using the company's products.
2. Case management interventions that target the early stages of litigation, like timely decisions on summary judgment motions, are viewed as the most effective reforms.
3. Reforms aimed at the later stages of litigation, such as damages reform and legislative proposals, are seen as less effective. Respondents believe stronger guidance is still needed for calculating damages.

Iraq 7
This document appears to be a course outline for an international relations course on US foreign policy. It includes topics that will be covered such as the history and domestic roots of USFP, national security doctrine, and US policy toward regions like Africa and countries like South Africa, China, and Iraq. It discusses theories and priorities that influence USFP as well as readings and essay topics that students will examine regarding how the US has pursued goals like promoting freedom through its use of tools like the military and in dealing with key countries like China.
Personality
The document discusses personality disorders as defined by the DSM-IV. It describes the 10 specific personality disorders: paranoid, schizoid, schizotypal, antisocial, borderline, histrionic, narcissistic, avoidant, dependent, and obsessive-compulsive. These disorders are characterized by inflexible personality traits that impair functioning and cause distress. The disorders are grouped into clusters based on shared characteristics of odd/eccentric, dramatic/erratic, or anxious behavior patterns. Personality disorders typically emerge in teens and have enduring and consistent symptoms.
697 Genocide Terrorism And Hate
The document discusses theories of hate and genocide. It presents Sternberg's taxonomy of hate, which identifies seven types of hate based on the presence or absence of three core components: negation of intimacy, passion/anger-fear, and devaluation/commitment. The most extreme type is burning hate, which incorporates all three components and drives the desire to annihilate the target group. Examples of genocide discussed include those perpetrated by Nazi Germany and Stalin's Soviet Union.
Lecture3
The document discusses how definitions of crime vary over time and across cultures by examining historical examples of vagrancy and drug use. It argues that responses to vagrancy/homelessness and drugs in the US have complex social and political causes. The criminalization of vagrancy and drugs increased due to factors like rising homelessness, changes to urban economies, and the popularity of "broken windows" policing. This reflects underlying cultural and political influences on what behaviors are deemed criminal.
Ethicsasse2004
This document discusses various concepts related to professional ethics including what constitutes a profession, the difference between descriptive and prescriptive ethics, common professional values like integrity and competency, and how to reason through moral dilemmas and apply ethical theories. It uses examples of potential ethical issues an occupational health and safety professional may face to illustrate these concepts and help think through problems in professional ethics.
Globalization
An archaeologist in the year 2997 is trying to understand the origins of major world holidays like Coke Day and Saint Ronald McDonald Day. Due to the lack of history and data from the period when these holidays began, around the 20th-21st century, their roots are unclear. This era was a time of global peace and expansion for corporations like McDonald's. While some accept the corporate-driven origins of these holidays, others reject them and refuse to engage in associated consumption, concerning the archaeologist.
Aquinas
Thomas Aquinas developed a theory of natural law that argues morality is based on principles that are implanted in human nature by God and can be discerned through reason. Natural law consists of general rules that are derived from eternal law and embedded in human nature, such as preserving life and living in society. Aquinas sought to ground Christian ethics in a rational system based on natural inclinations, arguing that through reason humans can understand moral rules and their proper end as living, reproducing, and rational creatures ordered towards God.
Media Influences Females To Change Their Appearance
The document discusses how media influences society's perceptions of physical appearance and body image. It explores how reality TV shows, movies, and advertisements predominantly portray very thin bodies. This exposure leads many, especially women and girls, to feel dissatisfied with their appearance and resort to unhealthy behaviors like eating disorders, excessive exercise, and cosmetic surgeries. Over time, societal standards of beauty have grown increasingly thin. The media plays a large role in shaping ideals of attractiveness in a way that can negatively impact self-esteem and well-being.
Choas Theory3
The document discusses chaos theory and Lorenz attractors. It defines key terms like chaos, attractors, and strange attractors. It then summarizes Edward Lorenz's work developing the Lorenz attractor using a system of three differential equations with three variables (x, y, z) and constants (σ, ρ, β) to model atmospheric convection. The Lorenz attractor exhibits sensitive dependence on initial conditions, known as the "butterfly effect". Though initially developed for weather, the Lorenz equations have since been applied to other areas exhibiting chaotic behavior.
Evolve 7
The document discusses several key ideas from evolutionary psychology and human sociobiology, including:
1) E.O. Wilson's 1975 book introduced sociobiology and sparked controversy over the influence of biology vs culture on human behavior.
2) Evolutionary psychology views the mind as composed of specialized modules adapted for survival in our ancestral environment.
3) Studies provide evidence that human mate preferences, jealousy, and other behaviors may reflect evolutionary adaptations related to reproductive success.
4) Parental investment varies based on the certainty of biological parenthood.
Evolve
1. The document traces the evolution of human behavior from early hominids like Australopithecus and Homo erectus to anatomically modern humans.
2. Homo sapiens evolved from Homo erectus in Africa around 200,000 years ago and began migrating across Asia and Europe around 100,000 years ago.
3. The development of language allowed humans to exchange ideas, store knowledge across generations, and engage in collective learning, fueling increasingly complex culture.
Alexander And Macendonians Slides
The document summarizes a lecture on Alexander the Great and the Macedonian military system. It discusses the organizational improvements Philip of Macedon made to the army, including introducing the sarissa and reorganizing units into taxeis, syntagmata, and chiliarchiai. It then explains how Alexander used this powerful army to systematically conquer the Persian Empire through major battles at Granicus, Issus, Arbela, and Hydaspes, establishing Macedonian rule over most of the known world by the age of 30.
Social Darwinismanditsaffectsonthe Robber
1. Social Darwinism applied Charles Darwin's theory of evolution and natural selection to human social and economic interactions. Herbert Spencer coined the term "survival of the fittest" to justify laissez-faire capitalism and imperialism.
2. Robber barons like Carnegie, Rockefeller, and Morgan applied principles of efficiency, integration, and monopolization to build vast industrial empires in steel, oil, and railroads during the Gilded Age.
3. While some academics and thinkers embraced Social Darwinism, the industrialists themselves were more focused on business success than social theory, pursuing efficiency and profit above all else.
Globalization, Interdependence And Education
Globalization is narrowing the wealth gap between the richest and poorest populations around the world. Quality of life indicators like literacy rates, infant survival rates, and life expectancy have all improved globally since the 1970s. The incidence of global poverty has also fallen over this period. The drivers of globalization include scarcity of resources, trade liberalization, exploitation of third world labor, information technology, and expanding global markets. Countries that open themselves up to international trade tend to experience faster economic growth. Globalization is intensifying social connections between distant places such that local events are increasingly shaped by global happenings.
Evolve 3
The document outlines the human genus family tree, including key species and characteristics. Homo habilis lived from 2.3-1.7 million years ago and had a brain size of 610-750cc, using simple stone tools. Homo erectus emerged around 1.15 million years ago with an average brain size of 1000cc, spreading across the old world. Homo heidelbergensis evolved around 650,000 years ago with a brain size close to modern humans, being replaced by Neanderthals and then modern humans around 100,000 years ago. Modern humans emerged between 100,000-50,000 years ago with full sized brains of 1200-1800cc.
Eminent Domain
The document discusses the case of Kelo v. New London, in which the Supreme Court ruled that a city could use eminent domain to transfer private property to private developers, against the property owners' wishes. It outlines the history and reasoning behind eminent domain and debates around what constitutes a "public use." The document also discusses efforts in some states to pass laws strengthening private property rights in response to the Kelo decision.
Personality 2
1. Psychological disorders include mental illnesses that cause significant distress or impairment in daily life. Diagnosis can be subjective and cultural factors influence definitions of disorders.
2. The DSM-IV provides official categorization of psychological disorders in the US using a 5-axis model addressing clinical disorders, personality disorders, medical conditions, psychosocial stressors, and level of functioning.
3. Hypothesized causes of psychological disorders are often speculative and complex, with multiple genetic and environmental factors interacting in each case.
Postmodern Evangelism
1. The document discusses moving from a modern to postmodern approach to evangelism. It argues that postmodern evangelism focuses more on relationships, experiences, and community rather than facts, propositions, and one-way preaching.
2. Several strategies for postmodern disciple-making are outlined, including focusing on relationships over conquest, using narrative and storytelling, prioritizing belonging over believing, and taking a holistic process approach.
3. The document concludes that church leaders must move outside their offices and bubbles to connect with emerging generations, and that evangelism should be about making disciples rather than just winning souls. Loving emerging generations and having compassion for them is emphasized.
Human Rights Vi Form
The document provides an overview of human rights topics including:
1. An introduction to human rights and identifying rights in news stories and key documents like the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
2. The nature of human rights and their origins in documents from ancient civilizations through philosophers like Locke and declarations like the U.S. Bill of Rights.
3. Specific rights like the rights of children established in the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and how groups like indigenous peoples and refugees relate to human rights.

What are ethics?
Ethics is a cumulative effort to understand and to control individualism (or existentialism).
Necessary to control this self-regarding human characteristic to live peacefully as an extended group of people.
Ethical behaviour =balance between self-interest and group responsibility.
It is largely a learned skill, rather than an instinct.
Ethics = informal guide to professional decision-making with clear moral guidelines.
The Concept of Engineering Ethics
Ethics is a study of morality in practice
Ethics is given relevance as the application of moral values, particularly in a professional capacity.
2
Ethics =provision of a value system
Very often a guide to proper conduct in society/ work place, rather than imposition of a set of rules like the Road Code
It enables professionals to be influenced and guided in their decision making
Ethical guidelines can very often be informative and descriptive, rather than authoritarian and prescriptive
Values, Etiquette, Morals and Ethics
Values: Your own subjective principles including worth and desirability
Etiquette: Considered good mannered and polite
Morality: Applying a set of morally correct/ honourable set of rules/ principles to situation
Morality = generally accepted standards of right and wrong in a society
Ethics = study of moral decision-making
Used when referring to professional behaviour
Can appear in a code of professional ethics
In New Zealand
A code of engineering ethics is published by IPENZ, which is the professional body, representing professional engineers from all disciplines in New Zealand.
The ethical objectives of the institution are to develop and promote ethical engineering practices benefiting the wider community.
Which is particularly appropriate for engineers, and which is published for the information of the public.
These ethical values .

What are ethics?
Ethics is a cumulative effort to understand and to control individualism (or existentialism).
Necessary to control this self-regarding human characteristic to live peacefully as an extended group of people.
Ethical behaviour =balance between self-interest and group responsibility.
It is largely a learned skill, rather than an instinct.
Ethics = informal guide to professional decision-making with clear moral guidelines.
The Concept of Engineering Ethics
Ethics is a study of morality in practice
Ethics is given relevance as the application of moral values, particularly in a professional capacity.
2
Ethics =provision of a value system
Very often a guide to proper conduct in society/ work place, rather than imposition of a set of rules like the Road Code
It enables professionals to be influenced and guided in their decision making
Ethical guidelines can very often be informative and descriptive, rather than authoritarian and prescriptive
Values, Etiquette, Morals and Ethics
Values: Your own subjective principles including worth and desirability
Etiquette: Considered good mannered and polite
Morality: Applying a set of morally correct/ honourable set of rules/ principles to situation
Morality = generally accepted standards of right and wrong in a society
Ethics = study of moral decision-making
Used when referring to professional behaviour
Can appear in a code of professional ethics
In New Zealand
A code of engineering ethics is published by IPENZ, which is the professional body, representing professional engineers from all disciplines in New Zealand.
The ethical objectives of the institution are to develop and promote ethical engineering practices benefiting the wider community.
Which is particularly appropriate for engineers, and which is published for the information of the public.
These ethical values .

Paper A Application of a decision making framework to an IT-related.docx
Paper A: Application of a decision making framework to an IT-related ethical issue.
For this assignment, you are given an opportunity to explore and apply a decision making framework to an IT-related ethical issue.
A framework provides a methodical and systematic approach for decision making
.
UMUC
Module 2 - Methods of Ethical Analysis (see LEO Content – Readings for week 2)
describes three structured frameworks that may be used for ethical analysis, namely
Reynolds Seven-Step Approach, Kidder’s Nine Steps, and Spinello’s Seven-Step Process
.
There are several ways described in UMUC Module 2 to systematically approach an ethical dilemma
, and while each of the frameworks described has its merits, each will result in an ethical decision if straightforwardly and honestly applied.
In addition, you will want to consider the ethical theories described in
Module 1 – Introduction to Theoretical Ethical Frameworks (see LEO Content – Readings for week 1)
which help decision makers find the right balance concerning the acceptability of and justification for their actions. A separate write-up of the ethical theory that supports your decision is part of the following requirements.
For this paper, the following elements must be addressed:
Describe a current IT-related ethical issue
:
Since this is a paper exercise, not a real-time situation,
you may want to construct a brief scenario
where this issue comes into play, and thus causes an ethical dilemma. The dilemma may affect you, your family, your job, or your company; or it may be a matter of public policy or law that affects the general populace.
See the list below for a list of suggested issues, which may be a source of ethical dilemmas
.
Define a concise problem statement
that is
extracted
from the above description or scenario. It is best
if you define a specific problem caused by the dilemma, that needs a specific ethical decision to be made, that will solve the dilemma
. Be aware that if it is a matter of public policy or law, that it may require a regulatory body or congressional approval to take action to implement a solution.
Analyze your problem
using one of the structured decision-making frameworks chosen from Module 2.
Make sure that you identify the decision-making framework utilized. In addition, the steps in the decision-making framework selected must be used as major headings in the Analysis section.
Consider and state the impact of the decision that you made
on an individual, an organization, stakeholders, customers suppliers, and the environment, as applicable!
State and discuss the applicable ethical theory
from Module 1
that supports your decision.
Concerning your paper:
Prepare a minimum 3- 5 page, double-spaced paper and submit it to the LEO Assignments Module as an attached Microsoft Word file.
Provide appropriate American Psychological Association (APA) source citations for all sources you use
. In addition to critical thinking and analysis skills, you.

ethical decision making.pptx
This document discusses ethical decision making and the role of ethics committees. It begins by explaining that making ethical decisions is difficult and requires a process. This process involves identifying ethical issues, assessing the situation, identifying alternative decisions, choosing a solution, and evaluating the decision. Ethics committees were established to help ensure research and medical procedures are carried out ethically. These committees independently review clinical research, experiments involving human subjects, and patient care from ethical and scientific perspectives. There are two main types of ethics committees - research ethics committees and clinical ethics committees. Their roles include moderating clinical decision making, setting rules and regulations, and overseeing the use of resources in an ethical manner.
Chapter 4 SCOPES AND AIMS OF ENGINEERING ETHICS ETC
This document discusses engineering ethics and the responsibilities of engineers. It defines engineering ethics as concerning one's conduct and behavior when carrying out engineering work. Codes of ethics aim to set ideals and responsibilities for the profession, protect clients and professionals, improve the profession's profile, and provide guidance. They address issues like academic honesty, confidentiality, impartiality, and conflicts of interest. The document also presents examples of moral issues engineers may face, such as a structurally unsafe bridge or observing a colleague stealing confidential information. It emphasizes that engineers must consider moral values and impacts on safety, health and welfare when making decisions.
Ethics_4 (1).ppt
Here are a few options to consider:
1. Raise your concerns privately with your immediate manager or supervisor. Explain your observations factually and suggest improvements respectfully.
2. If raising concerns internally does not lead to improvements, you could report issues anonymously to the appropriate regulatory authority in that country. However, be aware of cultural differences and legal requirements.
3. As a last resort, you could refuse to work if conditions seem dangerously unsafe. However, consider potential consequences carefully and discuss with colleagues first if possible.
4. Seek advice from your UK employer on their policies for reporting health and safety issues overseas. They may be able to address concerns diplomatically through local partners or authorities.

Project World Cultures
The document outlines the key elements to include when comparing multiple faiths in a class assignment where students work in pairs. Students are asked to analyze and compare Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism and another faith of their choice by outlining when each was created, their main prophets, whether they are polytheistic or monotheistic, explaining 3 important symbols, defining rituals or rites of passage, describing 3 physical characteristics, providing information on religious texts and teachings, and noting the geography and locations important to each faith.
Limits Of Progressivism
The document provides an overview of the Progressive Era in America from the late 19th century to the 1920s. It describes the social problems that reformers sought to address through goals like protecting social welfare, promoting moral improvement, and creating economic reforms. Some key reforms included regulations on child labor, women's working hours, and food/drug safety. The movement gained momentum under presidents Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson through trustbusting, conservation efforts, and establishment of agencies like the Federal Trade Commission. Women's suffrage was another major success, though racial equality made less progress.
RELIGION
The document provides an overview of cultural geography of religion. It defines religion and discusses major world religions including their origins, divisions, and basic precepts. The major universalizing religions covered are Christianity, Islam, and Buddhism. The major ethnic religions discussed are Hinduism and Judaism. Other ethnic Asian religions of Confucianism, Daoism, and Shintoism are also briefly mentioned.
Muinkhoury
The document discusses how genetics and genomics will change healthcare in the future. It predicts that within 50 years, genome sequencing will cost less than $100 and will be part of individual medical records to provide personalized, preventative care tailored to a person's genetic risks. It also discusses the interaction between nature and nurture in diseases, noting that both genetic and environmental factors must be considered. Finally, it presents ways public health can leverage family health histories to better assess disease risks and promote health.
Iraq 6
The document provides an overview of Iran's political history and current system of government. It discusses Iran's borders and geography, then covers political developments from World War I through the 1979 Iranian Revolution. It also summarizes the key elements of Iran's Islamic republican constitution, including the roles and powers of the Supreme Leader, Guardian Council, Assembly of Experts, and other governing bodies and institutions.
Iraq 3
1. A new study estimates the true cost of the Iraq War is over $1 trillion, twenty times higher than the $50 billion estimated by the US government in 2003.
2. In addition to the over 2,300 American deaths, thousands of soldiers have been wounded both physically and mentally. Treating soldiers with severe injuries such as brain damage or multiple amputations costs hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars per soldier annually.
3. The long-term costs of providing disability benefits and lifetime medical care for injured veterans will total hundreds of billions of dollars that were not accounted for in initial war cost estimates.
Groups In Society
This document discusses various topics related to groups and group behavior. It defines what a group is and explores how groups have changed over time as societies transitioned from hunting/gathering to agricultural to industrial. It also examines different types of groups within societies like primary groups based on close relationships and secondary groups based on roles. Additional topics covered include in-groups and out-groups, reference groups, social networks, electronic communities, group size and dynamics, leadership styles, and phenomena like conformity, authority, and groupthink.
Globalizationvic
Globalization has led to reductions in global poverty and improvements in quality of life. While the wealth gap between the richest and poorest has narrowed, the proportion of people living in extreme poverty has fallen as national incomes have risen. Australia has embraced globalization through open trade policies, foreign investment, and immigration. It has competitive advantages in its openness, IT readiness, and culture that have supported the growth of globalized industries like mining, agriculture, manufacturing, and services. Looking ahead, Australia is well-positioned to continue thriving in an increasingly globalized world driven by information technology.
Freud Jeop
The document discusses several key concepts in Freudian psychology including the mind of infants being extremely impressionable, the three levels of consciousness, and the three levels of personality and their driving forces. It also mentions Freud's development of psychoanalysis which involved word association tests. Other topics include the Oedipus complex and feral children.
Fool Me Twice
The document criticizes the modern war on drugs by examining the rhetoric used by Harry Anslinger in the 1930s to advocate for marijuana prohibition. Anslinger linked marijuana use to increased promiscuity, addiction, deviance and even murder. He claimed that marijuana caused African Americans, Hispanics and Filipinos to pursue white women and engage in violent criminal behavior. The document suggests this type of racially charged rhetoric criticizing sexual, racial and social deviance was used to promote the war on drugs and prohibition of marijuana in the early 20th century.
Feral Children Presentation
The document discusses feral children and language acquisition. It defines feral children as humans who have lived in isolation from a young age and are unaware of human behavior and language. It describes three cases of feral children, including Victor of Aveyron and Genie, and notes their varying abilities to learn language after being rescued from isolation. The document also discusses debates around nature vs nurture influences on language and questions regarding the origins and development of human language abilities.
Evolve 8
The Standard Social Science Model (SSSM) holds that:
1. The human mind is a blank slate.
2. Biological constraints on human behavior are minimal.
3. Human behavior is shaped by general-purpose learning mechanisms.
The SSSM is critiqued for:
1. Failing to explain how a blank slate could respond to experience.
2. Falsely separating nature and nurture in development.
3. Inability of general learning mechanisms to fully explain behavior.
The EP view is that the human mind contains domain-specific cognitive modules adapted for challenges faced in human evolution, and that culture arises from an interaction of human nature and environment rather than being wholly
Extremismpresentation
This document summarizes a study on religious extremism and the conditions under which extremist groups emerge and thrive. It presents a theoretical model and agent-based simulation showing that extremist groups are more sustainable when the substitutability between religious and secular activities is high. The model also shows that population income matters but is less influential than substitutability. Regression analysis of empirical data supports the theory, showing extremism is higher where religious and secular activities are more substitutable. Potential policy interventions discussed include reducing the appeal of extremism by providing public goods that compete with religious groups.
Evolve 4
The document summarizes research that uses analysis of DNA polymorphisms on the non-recombining region of the Y chromosome to trace the dispersal of human populations. Key findings include:
- Analysis of Y chromosome polymorphisms in over 1,000 men from 52 populations identified 131 haplotypes and 10 haplogroups.
- Maximum parsimony analysis estimated the time to the most recent common ancestor of human Y chromosomes to be around 60,000 years ago.
- The geographic distribution of haplogroups provides insights into early human migration routes out of Africa and the colonization of the world.
Evolve 2
The Out-of-Africa theory suggests that Homo sapiens evolved in Africa around 100,000-200,000 years ago and then migrated throughout the world, replacing earlier hominin species. Genetic evidence from mitochondrial DNA, Y-chromosome DNA, and microsatellite DNA analyses indicate that all modern human populations outside of Africa can be traced back to a common ancestral population that lived in Africa relatively recently, between 100,000-150,000 years ago. This supports the theory that modern humans originated in Africa and then migrated throughout the world.
Eschatology 1
The document discusses the topic of eschatology, which traditionally concerns ideas about the end of the world and what will happen after death. It notes that eschatology in the Bible is more fundamental than just future events, as through the Holy Spirit believers can begin living in the new life brought by Jesus Christ. The document then examines key points about eschatology, including that Jesus' work was eschatological in nature and defeated evil, and that while God brings the new reality, He has chosen to do so through our choices and actions.
Drugshow
The document discusses the issues with prohibiting drugs, including that it is very costly, causes increased crime, and has disproportionate negative impacts on minorities. Prohibition creates unsafe drug markets with quality control issues and violence since transactions cannot be resolved legally. It is argued that legalizing drugs could reduce costs and crime by establishing regulated markets where disputes are settled lawfully. The document also notes that criminalizing drugs has disenfranchised millions of citizens, especially people of color, which raises issues of fairness and racial justice.
Durkheim And Anomie
The document discusses Emile Durkheim's concept of anomie and its causes and effects. It explains that Durkheim used anomie to describe a state of normlessness or feeling of alienation that can occur during periods of significant economic or social change when social norms are unclear. This lack of norms can cause individuals' behavior to become uncontrolled and deviant. The document also discusses how functionalist theorists like Durkheim and Merton viewed deviance as universal and sometimes functional for society in maintaining boundaries, solidarity, or reducing tension.
Deviant Behavior 6
The document discusses trait theories in criminology, which focus on linking biological and psychological traits to antisocial and criminal behavior. It describes several biosocial and psychological trait theories that attempt to explain criminal behavior, including theories related to biochemistry, neurology, genetics, evolution, psychodynamics, behaviorism, cognition, social learning, mental illness, and personality/intelligence. Trait theorists believe criminal behavior is influenced by both inherent traits and environmental factors interacting together. The document raises questions about the theories and notes limitations in the early research while also highlighting potential strengths of each approach.
Drugaware
This document provides information about THC (marijuana) to help reduce its impact on the army. It discusses the effects of THC on the body and brain, goals of diminishing misinformation about it, and trends in marijuana use. It covers the pharmacology of THC, including acute and long term effects. It also describes army drug screening procedures and resources for substance abuse programs.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
