Tinefcon is a standardized extract from Sphaeranthus indicus that has been shown to inhibit the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines like TNF-α. Clinical trials found Tinefcon tablets were well tolerated and showed efficacy in treating moderate to severe psoriasis, with 75% of patients achieving 75% improvement in PASI score after 12 weeks. Gene expression and histopathological analysis provided further evidence of Tinefcon's mechanism of action and treatment response in psoriasis patients. Based on these results, a larger clinical trial is underway to further confirm Tinefcon's efficacy in psoriasis.
STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Switch Up the Shirtdress | CollegeFashionistaKelsey Knepler
The document provides style advice for updating the classic shirtdress look. It suggests wearing denim shorts visible underneath the shirtdress for added coverage, comfort and a trendy high-low effect. An example outfit pairs a white collared shirtdress with denim shorts and chunky heels. Soft waves in the hair complement the structured shirtdress. The advice encourages experimenting with shirtdresses through layering and unique combinations to find new looks from existing closet items.

I decided to stop waiting to be happy and I'm happier than everKelsey Knepler
The author discusses how they used to put off being happy by waiting for certain life events like weekends or summer. However, they realized this was preventing them from being happy in the present. The author decided to stop making excuses and find happiness in every moment instead of waiting for the perfect circumstances. Since then, the author has felt consistently happier by choosing to have a positive outlook and appreciate what they currently have in each day.
El documento discute la distancia promedio que recorre la comida antes de llegar a las mesas de los consumidores en España. Indica que la mayoría de los alimentos han viajado más de 5,000 km en promedio y emiten casi 5 millones de toneladas de CO2 anualmente durante sus viajes transfronterizos. También señala que España importa grandes cantidades de cereales y piensos, incluidas 7 millones de toneladas de soja de Argentina y Brasil, lo que contribuye a la deforestación en la Amazonia.
The document discusses techniques for estimating work in Agile projects using story points and ideal days. It defines story points and ideal days, and explains how to assign estimates relatively by comparing stories rather than using specific units of time. The document also recommends estimating approaches like planning poker, re-estimating as stories change, and using the right units to keep estimates meaningful but relative.

The document discusses plans for national interoperability through company registration in Lebanon. It outlines key needs like simplified registration and standardized forms. Challenges include lack of standardization and data sharing between institutions. The approach focuses on building consensus and staging reforms. Components include developing an interoperability framework, reference architecture, and one stop shop for company registration. Standardization efforts include unique IDs and data exchange standards. The plan aims to gather meaningful company data, reduce costs, and provide accurate registration information to improve business processes.
This document outlines business registration reforms in Timor-Leste. It discusses the process of registering different types of businesses, including sole proprietorships and limited liability companies. The registration process has been streamlined over time, taking as little as one day. Requirements include identification documents and information about company ownership and address. A certificate and licenses are issued upon approval of the registration. The company law and business registration law are being revised to further simplify the process and allow electronic registration.
The document discusses data quality and integrity practices across business registers globally. It shows that most registers use annual reporting to update company information and ensure accuracy. Penalties are also common for failing to submit annual updates. Verification methods vary but user IDs/passwords are popular. Real-time updates are becoming more common. Case studies highlight how New Zealand educates businesses, Norway focuses on clear regulations, and Utah responds to errors but does not actively scrutinize filings. Overall data quality is important for registers and users.
Dev up 2016 Demystifying the scaled agile frameworkAngela Dugan
Just when companies seems to be warming up to agile, here comes SCALED agile. But how is SAFe really different than agile? Does using the SAFe framework undermine the scrum teams? Isn’t SAFe just a glorified version of waterfall that companies adopt when they can’t handle “real” agile? I decided the best solution was to go through the training and spend some time practicing it in the field. What I found was that SAFe leverages the best of Lean, Kanban, and scrum. SAFe is intended for large, enterprise customers delivering extremely complex and interdependent systems, but that doesn’t mean it offers nothing to smaller teams. Since becoming a Safe program consultant, I have coached a number of my smaller customers on improving their software development and delivery processes leveraging techniques from SAFe. In this interactive session, I plan to quickly walk through the tenets of SAFe, share some of my learnings with you, and help you to understand when and how SAFe can benefit your team!
El documento explica cómo formular competencias, incluyendo los componentes estructurales necesarios: el dominio de la competencia, la redacción de la competencia, los ejes procesuales, los criterios y las evidencias. Se define cada componente y se proporcionan ejemplos para ilustrarlos. El objetivo final es contribuir a la formación y evaluación de competencias como parte integral del proceso educativo.
This document summarizes a study on the careers of minority women who earned PhDs in science and engineering from the University of California, Berkeley between 1980-1990. It finds that:
1) Of the 85 minority PhD holders from UC Berkeley in this time period, only 23 were women. The majority have built substantial careers, though few hold faculty positions at top research universities.
2) About 59% of the 56 minority PhD holders interviewed currently work in academic institutions, while others work for government labs, in the private sector, or other organizations. They are distributed across prestigious institutions.
3) Of the 19 women PhD holders interviewed, about one-third hold faculty or research positions while others work in government,
