The document discusses a study investigating homeopathic medicines as a potential nanomedicine system. Researchers prepared high potency homeopathic medicines and controls in ultrapure conditions. Scanning electron microscopy revealed nanoparticles and conglomerates in potencies above 12cH where no molecules of the starting substance should remain. Transmission electron microscopy with nanodiffraction and X-ray analysis showed the nanoparticles had crystalline nature and were rich in silicon. The violent agitation involved in potentization may encrypt structural information from the starting substance onto silicon-rich nanoparticles, with the 'size' of information varying with dilution level. As nanoparticles and interfacial water may carry this information to biological targets, homeopathy could represent a nanomedic

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.

Ending stagnation: How to boost prosperity across Scotland
A toxic combination of 15 years of low growth, and four decades of high inequality, has left Britain poorer and falling behind its peers. Productivity growth is weak and public investment is low, while wages today are no higher than they were before the financial crisis. Britain needs a new economic strategy to lift itself out of stagnation.
Scotland is in many ways a microcosm of this challenge. It has become a hub for creative industries, is home to several world-class universities and a thriving community of businesses – strengths that need to be harness and leveraged. But it also has high levels of deprivation, with homelessness reaching a record high and nearly half a million people living in very deep poverty last year. Scotland won’t be truly thriving unless it finds ways to ensure that all its inhabitants benefit from growth and investment. This is the central challenge facing policy makers both in Holyrood and Westminster.
What should a new national economic strategy for Scotland include? What would the pursuit of stronger economic growth mean for local, national and UK-wide policy makers? How will economic change affect the jobs we do, the places we live and the businesses we work for? And what are the prospects for cities like Glasgow, and nations like Scotland, in rising to these challenges?

Hi guys in my speech i
- 1. Hi guys in my speech I´m going try to explain you the Olympic Games which took part in Los Angeles, USA. First of all they began the 28th of July and finished the 12th of August. Another feature will be that in total six thousand eight hundred and twenty nine athletes took part from one hundred and forty different countries. Here you can see that the different between the participation of women and men is huge. They competed in twenty one sports and two hundred and twenty one specialties.The official stadium was called Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum Now I´m going to show you a video which is made up by the different events of the Olympic Games. In this part of the video you can see the different country flags which participated, they are in the opening ceremony. This Olympic Games consisted of different sports such as athletics, shot-put, long jump, high jump, synchronized swimming, marathon, rhythmic gymnastics, sailing, swimming, equestrian sport and boxing. In this part of the presentation you can see the people who stood out. For example the American Carl Lewis rose to history because he won four gold medals in the same events. Furthermore The Romanian Ekaterina Szabowon gold medals in the majority of the rhythmic gymnastics competitions however she fell against Mary Lou Retton. Now move on to the curiosities of this Olympic Games. As USA had boycotted previously the Olympic Games in Moscow 1980 the Soviet Union and another communist countries didn´t attend. In addition it was the first that a female marathon was carried out and finally Sam was the official mascot.
