1. INTRODUCTION
We are currently living in the so-called information age which can be described as an era were
economic activities are mainly information based (an age of informationalization). This is due to
the development and use of technology. The main characteristics of this era can be summarized
as a rise in the number of knowledge workers, a world that has become more open - in the sense
of communication (global village/Gutenberg galaxy) and internationalization (trans-border flow
of data).
This paradigm shift brings new ethical and juridical problems which are mainly related to issues
such as the right of access to information, the right of privacy which is threatened by the
emphasis on the free flow of information, and the protection of the economic interest of the
owners of intellectual property.
In this paper the ethical questions related to the right to privacy of the individual which is
threatened by the use of technology will be discussed. Specific attention will be given to the
challenges these ethical problems pose to the information professional. A number of practical
guidelines, based on ethical norms will be laid down.
2. ETHICS
The ethical actions of a person can be described in general terms as those actions which are
performed within the criterium of what is regarded as good. It relates thus to the question of what
is good or bad in terms of human actions. According to Spinello (1995, p. 14) the purpose
of ethics is to help us behave honorably and attain those basic goods that make us more fully
human.
3. THE CONCEPT OF PRIVACY
3.1. Definition of Privacy
Privacy can be defined as an individual condition of life characterized by exclusion from
publicity (Neetling et al., 1996, p. 36). The concept follows from the right to be left alone (Stair,
1992, p. 635; Shank, 1986, p. 12)1 . Shank (1986, p. 13) states that such a perception of privacy
set the course for passing of privacy laws in the United States for the ninety years that followed.
As such privacy could be regarded as a natural right which provides the foundation for the legal
right. The right to privacy is therefore protected under private law.
The legal right to privacy is constitutionally protected in most democratic societies. This
constitutional right is expressed in a variety of legislative forms. Examples include the Privacy
Act (1974) in the USA, the proposed Open Democracy Act in South Africa (1996) and the Data
Protection Act in England. During 1994 Australia also accepted a Privacy Charter containing 18
privacy principles which describe the right of a citizen concerning personal privacy as effected
by handling of information by the state (Collier, 1994, p. 44-45). The Organization for Economic
and Coordination and Development (OECD) also accepted in 1980 the Guidelines for the
Protection of Privacy and Transborder Flow of Personal Data (Collier, 1994, p. 41).
Privacy is an important right because it is a necessary condition for other rights such as freedo.

4. Mycoplasmas are fastidious organisms that require nutrient supplementation in the medium.
They require fetal or now born calf serum, heart infusion, salts, glucose and/or arginine. Their
growth rate is slow. Since they lack a cell wall, they cannot take up typical Gram stain. Also,,
their extremely small size makes it difficult to visualize them.

1. All RTKs have a similar molecular architecture, with a ligand-binding region in the
extracellular domain, a single transmembrane helix, and a cytoplasmic region that contains the
protein tyrosine kinase (TK) domain plus additional carboxy (C-) terminal and juxtamembrane
regulatory regions. In general, growth factor binding activates RTKs by inducing receptor
dimerization, (Ullrich, 1990). Further, extracellular matrix proteins and certain surface proteins
on neighboring cells can also bind to and activate RTKs. The down stream effect is:molecules
direct cell differentiation by determining patterns of gene transcription.
2.The dominant negative receptor mutants which atlow concentrations, are capable of blocking
the intracellular activity of wild type e.g estrogen receptor (ER) mutants as reported by(Ince,
1993). Such mutants are useful in studying the pathway of signal transduction after receptor
activation.
3. Allostery is the process by which biological macromolecules (mostly proteins) transmit the
effect of binding at one site to another, often distal, functional site, allowing for regulation of
activity. Hence by allostery the components of the signal transduction pathway may be inhibited
or activated depending on the status of the cell i.e. regulated

The anion is a good leaving group because it is probably the most negative of the
anion. I assume the Xs represent an electronegative atom such as oxygen; therefore, it would
have the greatest repulision force (because it has so many electrons). Thus, it but be beneficial if
the most negative anion (the one with the most electrons) left because it would allow the
molecule to be under less stress and allow the remaining anions to spread out more (spread out
more spatially around the central C atom) (On the really long molecule with the bunch of Me
atoms) The most acidic hydrogen would be the one hanging off the second N from the left (it has
a think line pointing from the H to the N). It is the most acidic because the N is very
electronegative (more so than the carbons found in other molecules). The O atom is more
electronegative but it cannot lose the H because the OH is a polyatomic ion...u cannot split them
up! Thus the H hanging of the N is the most acidic!

“Oogenesis” is the production of matured “ovum or egg” from a female.pdfanurag1231
“Oogenesis” is the production of matured “ovum or egg” from a female germ cell. In females,
from the primordial germ cells, oogonium is formed by mitotic divisions. The oogonium
produces primary oocyte by mitotic divisions. So, these primary oocytes are diploid (2n). The
development of primary oocytes is arrested at prophase I (of meiosis I) at birth. Their
development starts again at puberty.
These secondary oocytes undergo “meiosis II,” cytoplasmic division of the secondary oocyte
results in the formation of an egg or ovum and a polar body, both are haploid (having 23
numbers of chromosomes). The polar body degrades itself, and is not capable of being fertilized.
These polar bodies are small in size because they receive small amount of cytoplasm, while the
ovum receive high amount of the cytoplasm.
The oogenesis has two interruptions during meiotic divisions. First being the development of
primary oocytes is arrested at prophase I (of meiosis) at birth. At puberty its development
continues and completes the first meiosis cycle. This enters into the meiosis II, where the
development of secondary oocyte (haploid, n) is arrested at metaphase II (of meiosis II). At
ovulation, this secondary oocyte is released. If fertilization occurs, then only it completes the
meiosis II phase.

These secondary oocytes undergo “meiosis II,” cytoplasmic division of the secondary oocyte
results in the formation of an egg or ovum and a polar body, both are haploid (having 23
numbers of chromosomes). The polar body degrades itself, and is not capable of being fertilized.
These polar bodies are small in size because they receive small amount of cytoplasm, while the
ovum receive high amount of the cytoplasm.
The oogenesis has two interruptions during meiotic divisions. First being the development of
primary oocytes is arrested at prophase I (of meiosis) at birth. At puberty its development
continues and completes the first meiosis cycle. This enters into the meiosis II, where the
development of secondary oocyte (haploid, n) is arrested at metaphase II (of meiosis II). At
ovulation, this secondary oocyte is released. If fertilization occurs, then only it completes the
meiosis II phase..
When males only contribution to offspring is their sperm, females .pdfanurag1231
When males\' only contribution to offspring is their sperm, females are particularly choosy. With
this high level of female choice, sexual ornaments are seen in males, where the ornaments reflect
the male\'s social status. Two hypotheses have been proposed to conceptualize the genetic
benefits from female mate choice.
First, the good genes hypothesis suggests that female choice is for higher genetic quality and that
this preference is favored because it increases fitness of the offspring. This includes Zahavi\'s
handicap hypothesis and Hamilton and Zuk\'s host and parasite arms race. Zahavi\'s handicap
hypothesis was proposed within the context of looking at elaborate male sexual displays. He
suggested that females favor ornamented traits because they are handicaps and are indicators of
the male\'s genetic quality. Since these ornamented traits are hazards, the male\'s survival must
be indicative of his high genetic quality in other areas. In this way, the degree that a male
expresses his sexual display indicates to the female his genetic quality. Zuk and Hamilton
proposed a hypothesis after observing disease as a powerful selective pressure on a rabbit
population. They suggested that sexual displays were indicators of resistance of disease on a
genetic level.
Such \'choosiness\' from the female individuals can be seen in wasp species too, especially
among Polistes dominula wasps. The females tend to prefer males with smaller, more elliptically
shaped spots than those with larger and more irregularly shaped spots. Those males would have
reproductive superiority over males with irregular spots.
Fisher\'s hypothesis of runaway sexual selection suggests that female preference is genetically
correlated with male traits and that the preference co-evolves with the evolution of that trait, thus
the preference is under indirect selection. Fisher suggests that female preference began because
the trait indicated the male’s quality. The female preference spread, so that the females’ offspring
now benefited from the higher quality from specific trait but also greater attractiveness to mates.
Eventually, the trait will only represent attractiveness to mates and no longer represent increased
survival.
An example of mate choice by genes is seen in the cichlid fish Tropheus moorii where males
provide no parental care. An experiment found that a female T. moorii is more likely to choose a
mate with the same color morph as her own. In another experiment, females have been shown to
share preferences for the same males when given two to choose from, meaning some males get
to reproduce more often than others

There are so many positions, perspectives and ‘takes’ on perversion .pdfanurag1231
There are so many positions, perspectives and ‘takes’ on perversion that it is difficult to find
one’s bearings whether as a private individual or as a psychotherapist. I cannot hope in the
course of one talk to arrive at a clear position, much less persuade all of you that it is a
convincing one. I will say, however, that I feel sure that one has to bring several perspectives to
bear on any conclusions that are even potentially convincing. Foremost among them, in my
opinion, is the moral perspective -- which is not, I hasten to add, the same as a moralistic
perspective.
The press has of late been full of moral debates about homosexuality, in particular, about the
propriety of making Dr Jeffrey John and Canon Gene Robinson bishops in Anglican and
Episcopalian dioceses. You may take the view that this is nothing to do with psychotherapeutic
ideas about perversion. After all, homosexuality (more precisely, ego-syntonic homosexuality)
was removed from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of the American Psychiatric
Association in 1973, twenty years after a previous edition of DSM said that it was a pathology.
If, however, you are miserable about your homosexuality you still get a diagnosis in that and
successive editions of the DSM. This leads to a second perspective which I suggest is essential to
working out one’s own position, that is, the fact that concepts of perversion are historical. They
have changed through time and have done so rapidly in recent decades as a result of agitation on
the part of gays, lesbians and others formerly labelled perverts and by those sympathetic to them.
There have always been such people in prominent places in public life, including politics,
culture, business and the clergy, but they have only recently been ‘out’ -- members of the UK
Cabinet, MPs, entertainers, entrepreneurs, clerics. Another index of the historicity of sexual
practices is the percentage of heterosexuals who practice oral and non-penetrative sex. This
percentage has quadrupled from the twenties to the eighties between 1950 and the present, while
the percentage practicing anal sex is not on the rise and hovers at under ten per cent (Wellings et
al., 1994, pp. 164-5).
I was awake and listening to the radio during the ordination of Gene Robinson a fortnight ago.
Those who objected to it said that homosexuality was ‘unnatural’. Indeed, one of those allowed
to put opposing position during the ceremony began spelling out why this was so in graphic
anatomical detail but was asked by the presiding person to desist, followed by a quick and
somewhat embarrassed agreement between them that they knew what was meant. Another
opponent of the ordination said that men and women’s bodies ‘fit together’ and produce children
and long-term relationships. Same gender relationships, he said, do not and are a departure from
Holy Scripture. Here we find appeals tobiology. Gays and lesbians’ are committing ‘unnatural

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

The anion is a good leaving group because it is probably the most negative of the
anion. I assume the Xs represent an electronegative atom such as oxygen; therefore, it would
have the greatest repulision force (because it has so many electrons). Thus, it but be beneficial if
the most negative anion (the one with the most electrons) left because it would allow the
molecule to be under less stress and allow the remaining anions to spread out more (spread out
more spatially around the central C atom) (On the really long molecule with the bunch of Me
atoms) The most acidic hydrogen would be the one hanging off the second N from the left (it has
a think line pointing from the H to the N). It is the most acidic because the N is very
electronegative (more so than the carbons found in other molecules). The O atom is more
electronegative but it cannot lose the H because the OH is a polyatomic ion...u cannot split them
up! Thus the H hanging of the N is the most acidic!

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
