Ethical issues after walmarts entry in Indai
The document discusses ethical issues in the Indian retail industry related to employees, suppliers, and the government. It notes that global retailers are known to overwork employees and pay low wages without proper benefits. Large retailers can also force down supplier prices to increase their profits. There are concerns that foreign retailers will lobby and pressure the Indian government, potentially influencing regulations in a way that raises ethical issues. Suggestions are made around protecting employee rights and developing frameworks to avoid monopolistic practices with suppliers.
Citibank Indonesian Case Study
The death of a politician during a meeting to discuss his credit card debt sparked debate about the ethics of debt collection practices. Three debt collectors employed by Citibank were suspected of being involved in the man's death. While the prosecutors questioned why the case was not progressing, Citibank promised compensation to the family but provided no evidence. This raises issues around the use of debt collectors and whether their practices are ethical.
Ethical Issues In ICT
This document discusses several ethical issues related to information technology, including privacy, data security, unpredictability, unreliability, unmanageable costs, and technology manipulation. It provides examples of each, such as privacy concerns regarding online banking and data security, viruses making computers less predictable, internet traffic slowing down websites, program modifications exceeding initial plans, and media manipulation through photo and sound editing.
Ethical Dilemma
This document discusses ethical dilemmas and approaches to resolving them. It defines an ethical dilemma as a situation that requires choosing between alternatives that both have valid moral arguments. Common types of dilemmas involve truths vs. loyalty, individual vs. community concerns, and short-term vs. long-term impacts. The document outlines several approaches to resolving dilemmas, such as utilitarian, rule-based, care-based, and virtue ethics perspectives. It also provides methods and questions to consider when facing an ethical dilemma.

InMemoriam
El documento discute las teorías sobre las causas de la destrucción de las Torres Gemelas el 11 de septiembre de 2001. Algunos expertos argumentan que fue un complot interno para limitar las libertades de los ciudadanos estadounidenses y aumentar el control del gobierno sobre los recursos. Miles de personas murieron ese día y muchas más resultaron física y emocionalmente afectadas de por vida. El documento expresa el deseo de que algún día se conozca la verdad completa sobre lo ocurrido.

Introduction to Creative Commons
This document provides an introduction to Creative Commons copyright licenses for creative professionals. It discusses the concept of intellectual property, copyright law, and how Creative Commons aims to simplify sharing and stimulate creativity by offering standardized copyright licenses between all rights reserved and no rights reserved. The document outlines the history and development of Creative Commons, describes the different license elements and types, and discusses some limitations and applications of Creative Commons licenses.
Open Data and Creative Commons
Creative Commons licenses provide alternatives to traditional "all rights reserved" copyright that allow creators to selectively grant permissions for others to use their work. The document discusses the history and purpose of Creative Commons, including its founding in 2001 and development of six main licenses in 2002. It also covers the localization of Creative Commons to places like Taiwan, China, Hong Kong, and efforts to promote open data and sharing through standardized Creative Commons licensing.
10 Years of the Cathedral and the Bazaar
This document summarizes Eric Raymond's 1997 work "The Cathedral and the Bazaar" which used the Linux development process to illustrate how open source software development works in a decentralized and collaborative manner. It discusses key principles like egoless programming and motivations for participation. It also examines how the bazaar metaphor and understanding of open source may need reexamining after 10 years as the model has faced challenges and commoditization affects open source projects.

The Power of Git
This document discusses the power of Git and distributed version control systems. It begins by explaining problems that can occur with finding and collaborating on code over time. It then introduces version control systems and how they address these problems by storing code revisions with metadata. A key advantage of Git is that it is a distributed version control system, allowing offline work and collaboration. GitHub is highlighted as a popular hosting service that has over 2.2 million active repositories, showing the power of Git for open source projects and collaboration at scale.

This document contains examples of solving radical equations by finding the number that when raised to the radical power equals the number under the radical. It provides examples of solving equations of the form 2√49, 4√81, 4√10000, and 5√-32 by listing the powers of numbers from 1 to 10 and determining which number raised to the radical power equals the number under the radical.
Ptolemy, Copernicus, and the Church
The document discusses the transition from the geocentric model of the universe proposed by Ptolemy and Aristotle, in which Earth is the center, to the heliocentric model proposed by Copernicus, in which the Sun is the center. It also provides context about the Scientific Revolution that began in Europe in the late 1500s and early 1600s, when scientists began systematically testing theories through experiments and observation rather than relying on traditional explanations. Some of the key figures who helped establish the modern scientific method are mentioned, including Galileo, Vesalius, Harvey, Boyle, Bacon, and Descartes.
VRM + CRM and why individuals need their own X-wing vehicles
This document discusses the potential for customer relationship management (CRM) to focus on truly serving customers through love and empowerment, rather than just control and retention. It argues that CRM currently keeps customers locked in a client-server model where their data and control is held by companies. The document proposes that customer relationship management (CRM) needs a counterpart called vendor relationship management (VRM) to empower customers through tools and services that give them control over their own data and how they engage with companies. VRM aims to shift the balance of power to customers by moving relationships to a more peer-to-peer model where individuals are integrated into their own data and can assert their own demands. The document outlines several VRM projects and companies

Oer movement carolina 2h30
The document discusses the Open Educational Resources (OER) movement in Latin America and whether it faces a paradox. While there are important technical implementations of open philosophies through projects, most do not incorporate the necessary legal frameworks to fully adopt open concepts. For example, some university open courseware later closed content due to legal concerns. Additionally, while educational repositories and policies support sharing, the specific open licensing strategy is still unclear. So the question remains - do these projects truly want to enable the "free" sharing and adaptation of resources as defined by open education?

Libraries in China have seen a rapid growth in Intellectual Property Information Service (IPIS) centers over the past few years, with over 100 established. These centers were encouraged by the Chinese government to support innovation and patent applications. They provide services like patent searches, analysis of patent trends, and support for industries. While still developing, they represent a promising new direction for academic research libraries in China. Compared to the US, where similar centers have existed longer in libraries but not transformed them, the growth of IPIS centers could impact the transformation of Chinese academic libraries.What is Creative Commons.pptx
Creative Commons began as a response to outdated copyright laws and allows creators to choose how their works can be shared and used. It provides legal tools for open education initiatives by specifying whether others can share, modify or use works for commercial purposes. Over time, Creative Commons has grown into a global movement supporting open innovation, open data, open access research, and open educational resources through its network of over 700 members and 45 chapters worldwide.

Creative Commons was found due to the failure to stop the Copyright Term Extension Act. This ever increasing control is imposed on us in the name of the benefits of the creators, with the latest incarnation as the Directive on Copyright in the Digital Single Market. By giving creators tools to receive revenue without retaining full copyright, we can demonstrate that open business models are viable alternatives other than control. The success of "Made with Creative Commons" strongly indicated that Open Business Models should be an integrated part of the Creative Commons Movement

Why should Chinese Christians Care About FOSS and CC
Dr. Haggen So discusses why Chinese Christians should care about free and open source software (FOSS) and Creative Commons (CC). He summarizes the hacker culture that values technical excellence, freedom of information, and community. This relates to Richard Stallman's creation of free software to guarantee users' freedom via the GPL license. Christians should thoughtfully consider technology and its effects, entering situations with understanding to enact positive change. FOSS and CC may help balance authorship rights with information sharing in fellowship.
Better than Free Giveaways - Case Studies of Open Source Business Models
"The Power of Free" is well-known in marketing, but you can go one step further by releasing copyrighted materials inside your company with appropriate licences. Copyleft and Permissive Free/Open Source Software Licences will be discussed. For general copyrighted materials, Creative Commons Licences will be introduced. Case Studies of Open Source Business Models using the above licences will then be presented and compared with Business Models in famous companies such as Amazon.

CC Affiliate Projects in Asia and the Pacific - The Hong Kong Story
The three sentence summary is:
The Creative Commons project in Hong Kong began in 2007 with an informal meeting led by the Journalism and Media Studies Centre at the University of Hong Kong, which established a preparatory committee and completed the localization of six Creative Commons licenses after public consultations. Notable supporters like Lawrence Lessig and Joichi Ito helped launch the Hong Kong Creative Commons through several pre-launch events, including lectures and dinners, culminating in the official launch on October 25, 2007 at the HKICC Lee Shau Kee School of Creativity. Post-launch efforts focused on educating the public through media coverage and exploring opportunities in secondary education.
走出技術自主路：自由軟件開源軟件掂唔掂？
The document discusses the history and development of open source software and the free software movement. It describes how early programmers freely shared source code until the commercialization of the software industry in the 1980s. This led Richard Stallman to launch the GNU project and Free Software Foundation to ensure source code remained open. Linus Torvalds later developed the Linux kernel, combining it with GNU software to create a free open source operating system. The open source model gained popularity during the dot-com boom but predictions of Linux dominating desktops were delayed due to inertia and Microsoft's market dominance. Both enabling and disabling factors for open source are discussed.

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapy
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.

PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s Perspective
Since our release of the PGx capabilities in VarSeq, we’ve had a few months to gather some insights from various use cases. Some users approach PGx workflows by means of array genotyping or what seems to be a growing trend of adding the star allele calling to the existing NGS pipeline for whole genome data. Luckily, both approaches are supported with the VarSeq software platform. The genotyping method being used will also dictate what the scope of the tertiary analysis will be. For example, are your PGx reports a standalone pipeline or would your lab’s goal be to handle a dual-purpose workflow and report on PGx + Diagnostic findings.
The purpose of this webcast is to:
Discuss and demonstrate the approaches with array and NGS genotyping methods for star allele calling to prep for downstream analysis.
Following genotyping, explore alternative tertiary workflow concepts in VarSeq to handle PGx reporting.
Moreover, we will include insights users will need to consider when validating their PGx workflow for all possible star alleles and options you have for automating your PGx analysis for large number of samples. Please join us for a session dedicated to the application of star allele genotyping and subsequent PGx workflows in our VarSeq software.

GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort. Pollen and Fungal allergy: aeroallergy.pdf
